The latest iPad adds several tweaks and improvements to secure its position at the top of the tablet heap. It's better all around, but third-gen owners need not apply.
Zagg's foray into a folio-style keyboard case for the iPad 2, the Zaggfolio, succeeds when it's in keyboard mode. However, it's not ideal as a pure case.

Vitamin E is known to be one of the best antioxidants. Vitamin E is made up of two kinds of antioxidants which are tocopherols and tocotrienols. Many are familiar with tocopherols but what are tocotrienols?
What are Tocotrienols?
Tocotrienols are one of the antioxidants which can be found in Vitamin E. Tocotrienols are composed of four different types which are alpha, beta, delta and gamma. Tocotrienols are also believed by experts to be potent antioxidants which have many other benefits as well.
Benefits of Tocotrienols
There are more benefits than one when it comes to tocotrienols and some of these benefits are:
More Potent Antioxidants
Antioxidants are very good for the body to be healthy as it helps protect and shield it from any damage which may be caused by free radicals. Tocotrienols along with its other minor components help fight harmful free radicals in the body. It is even proven in many studies that tocotrienols are more potent antioxidants than tocopherols. Alpha-tocotrienols is said to be about 40 to 60 times more potent than its alpha-tocopherol counterpart. While the most potent among the commercially prepared tocotrienols is the delta-tocotrienol.
Helps Lower or Decrease Blood Cholesterol Faster
Studies have shown that tocotrienols are able to lower down blood cholesterol levels by preventing the cholesterol production the liver and since it inhibits cholesterol production from the liver, it results in a faster decrease of blood cholesterol when compared to other methods. Thus, the intake of tocotrienols can help reduce the bad cholesterol in the body.

Microsoft vs. TomTom: It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over
The patent war between Microsoft and TomTom may be resolved in court, but it hasn't ended. At least that's what the lawyers at the Software Freedom Law Center think, and Jim Zemlin of the Linux Foundation is further considering the implications.
The navigation software provider TomTom had recently filed a countersuit against Microsoft's allegation of patent violations, which led to an agreement whereby TomTom paid an undisclosed amount to Microsoft. TomTom also agreed to remove two functions out of its product related to Microsoft's FAT-LFN patents over the next two years. The outcome is not only an interesting development for Linux providers when considering Microsoft's regular patent arsenal threats, but because the patents also affect Linux technologies. TomTom had just that in mind when it appealed to the Open Invention Network (OIN) for help with its countersuit. Together with the Linux Foundation and lawyers of the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC), the OIN intends to take action to prevent further Microsoft lawsuits against open source users and developers.
In a message from the SFLC, their lawyers represent the view that the settlement might temporarily have spared TomTom a protracted court process, but that it "ends one phase of the community's response to Microsoft patent aggression and begins another." As they say, "The FAT filesystem patents on which Microsoft sued are now and have always been invalid patents in our professional opinion." A comment on the agreement from the Red Hat legal team sees things quite similarly.
Jim Zemlin, Executive Director of the Linux Foundation, wants to resolve the filesystem issue on a technical basis. In a recent blog, Zemlin approached it as nutritionist: "Maybe it's time developers go on a diet from Microsoft and get the FAT out of their products." He takes his tip from an unexpected source: "As acknowledged by Microsoft in the press release, this file system is easily replaced with multiple technology alternatives." He goes on, "The Linux Foundation is here to assist interested parties in the technical coordination of removing the FAT filesystem from products that make use of it today."
Back at the start of the patent battle, Zemlin had tried in a blog to assuage any concerns and perhaps give Microsoft the benefit of the doubt when it came to open source software violations, until proven otherwise. Obviously the "proven otherwise" has occurred: "Microsoft does not appear to be a leopard capable of changing its spots."

The senior baseball and softball players both signed with nearby Jacksonville State University at separate ceremonies at their respective schools Wednesday, turning down the opportunity to pursue playing at higher-profile schools.
Both honored longtime commitments when they rendered their signature on the Gamecocks' offers. Both made verbal pledges to Jacksonville State prior to the start of their junior season. Borders, a 5-foot-8 catcher/outfielder shunned an offer from SEC school Georgia as well as interest from University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and South Alabama.
"They offered me at the end of this past summer," Borders said of the Lady Bulldogs. "I was already committed to JSU. It's my dream school and I've always known that I wanted to go there."
Borders was a first-team all-state selection as a sophomore when she played in the outfield. She switched to catcher last season and was named an all-state selection again as a designated hitter and was chosen The Star's Class 4A-6A Player of Year by local coaches. She had a .540 batting average, including 11 home runs and 81 hits last season.
Borders is the third Alexandria catcher to sign with a Division 1 school, following in the footsteps of former Lady Valley Cubs Allie Barker, who also played at Jacksonville State and Issa Brown, now at UAB.
"She has the leadership abilities to handle pitchers and situations," 10th year Alexandria coach Brian Hess said. "She's a great athlete but what goes unnoticed is how smart she is. She really has a feel for the game. You can coach them all you want but it's the ones that have that feel for the game that can take it to the next level."
Lipscomb was a hot commodity, following a sophomore season in which he went a perfect 7-0 with 93 strikeouts in 53 innings with a 0.67 earned run average on his way to being named the state's Class 1A Pitcher of the Year.
Last year, the big 6-foot-2, 225-pound right-hander was limited to just 28 innings of action due to an elbow injury that required Tommy Johns surgery to repair just two weeks after the season. That didn't stop him from going 5-0 and striking out 62 for a .50 ERA.
He has a career record of 16-1, including 207 strikeouts in 110 innings for a 0.7 ERA.
He chose Jacksonville State despite interest from Auburn, Alabama and a myriad of junior colleges.
"The coaches, definitely the coaches," Lipscomb replied when asked what influenced his decision. (Head) Coach (Jim) Case, Coach (Travis Janssen) and Coach G (Steve Gillispie) They want to get to know you as a person, instead of just bypassing you like coaches at other schools."
Lipscomb said he first encountered the down-to-earth, personal bunch of coaches that eventually won him over as a ninth-grader playing fall ball at Jacksonville State. The coaches approached him in the dugout during a game and introduced themselves to him. It was a small gesture that made a big impression.
Lipscomb said he's nearly fully-recovered five months removed his operation. He suspects he'll back to throwing his fastball in the low 90s as he's accustomed to in about two weeks.
He said opting to sign early rather than wait to see what offers might arise will relieve him of the burden of worrying about who might show up to watch him as he prepares for his final season of high school ball.
"I've heard about five or six pro coaches say that Jim Case is the best pitching coach in the country," Lipscomb's father and Ragland coach Rodney said. "Why go Alabama or Auburn when Jacksonville State is right by the house."

Sun and Microsoft Launch Interoperability Center
Sun Microsystems and Microsoft have opened an interoperability center at the Microsoft campus in Redmond.
The objective is to optimize Microsoft operating systems and applications for deployment on Sun Fire x64 servers and memory impractical test, but also to collaborate on virtualization, collaboration and identity software, and Java technology. "The new Sun/Microsoft Interoperability Center will help provide our joint customers with a testbed for running key Microsoft applications on Sun's x64 servers and help ensure more seamless integration between the technologies," said Lisa Sieker, vice president of Systems Marketing, Sun Microsystems. As one of the first results of the latest drive towards closer co-operation the companies presented the Sun Infrastructure Solution für Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 at the same time promising customers who are willing to savings on total cost of ownership (TCO) thanks to lower memory requirements, energy consumption and cooling for their email servers.
Another focus of the center's interoperability drive will be virtualization. Sun and Microsoft are looking to co-operate on cross platform server virtualization, more specifically on the Windows Hyper-V and Sun xVM software solutions. The "Sun Ray" thin client will also offer a virtual Windows desktop in future. With respect to Sun's Java technology there are plans to certify Java platforms in the Enterprise and Standard Editions including the Java Runtime Environment for Microsoft operating systems and applications.
Sun has been selling Microsoft servers since the fall of 2007 and has run test environments on the Microsoft Campus in Washington state for three years. The companies regard the center as extension of their cooperation after burying the hatchet back in 2004 and agreeing to collaborate.

I hope people who read this will understand this is a short and general response to very personal situations. Every individual and each situation is so different, there are no pat answers. Often when we are in the middle of a personal storm, our vision is limited by our pain and tears. So please hear my response in general terms, not in terms of your specific situation, otherwise it will seem cruel and heartless.
We view life with a finite perspective, because the people we love and care about are in the present. The Hebrew people have had a long and beautiful relationship with God revealed and involved in their lives, even down to what kind of food they should eat. They also had times when God was silent: the 400 years of Egyptian slavery, the 70 years in Babylonian exile, the 400 years after the last prophet Malachi spoke.
Yet all along, God was looking out for the People of Israel and their interests. All along God was looking at the big picture. A day was coming in which all the nations and people of the world would be blessed through the Hebrew people.
When we go through the dark passages of our lives, we want instant responses to our prayers. We want solutions based upon our recommendations. Sometimes, when things fail to happen on our schedule, we think God is silent and heaven is closed. It is in these times, when things could not get any worse, that God is holding us in the palm of His hand.
Often when we think God is hidden, it is we who are not connecting. I love this Scripture from the writings of St. Paul. Before we call out, we find that God has already opened the door.
Peter Hawker, First United Methodist Church, Anniston
His presence is everywhere
The revelation of God's character is only hidden from those who have not come into the knowledge and understanding of who he is. His presence can be found in every aspect and dimension of our lives in the natural realm, as well as the spiritual.
He has given us ears to hear and eyes to see. With our ears we are to listen carefully to his word by spending uninterrupted, unhurried time with him meditating on the attributes of his sovereignty, then teaching others. To experience his blessings we are to demonstrate his character by seeking fresh revelation, leading with love, exhibiting genuine compassion while joyfully embracing his tenets. His created universe is nothing less than spectacular. Our world displays his glory in the everyday ordinary that is anything but.
From Genesis 1:1 through 2:3-5, the history of the heavens and the earth is performance art that cannot be duplicated or disputed. Martin Luther King Jr. reminded us of this: "The first principle of value that we need to rediscover is this: that all reality hinges on moral foundations. In other words, that this is a moral universe and that there are moral laws of the universe just as abiding as the physical laws."
In Luke 19:36-42 when the Pharisees complained about the people praising him, Jesus said, "If they kept quiet, the stones would do it for them, shouting praise."

The private jet industry is gaining altitude again after its death spiral during the recession. But jet makers, brokers and fractional companies say it will be years before the industry reaches its pre-crisis peak – if it does at all.
Used jets are still selling for half of their 2008 prices, while inventory remains high and jet use remains well below peak levels, as companies and the super-wealthy pare back their flights. As the industry rapidly reinvents itself to adapt to the shifting demand, the price of flying private is falling to record lows.
"It's been a brutal downturn for this industry, followed by dashed expectations for recovery," said Richard Aboulafia, analyst at the Teal Group, the aviation-research firm based in Fairfax, Va. "But the features are in place for a recovery and I think we're already starting to see some slow and steady progress."
This year, there have been a total of 172 new jets sold in North America – a drop of more than 70 percent from the 658 new jets sold during the same period in 2008, according to JETNET, the Utica, N.Y.-based jet research firm. The volume of used planes sold is about on pace with 2008 and 2009, yet prices for used planes are still down by a third or more from their 2008 peaks.
Inventories of used planes remain high. The inventory of used business jets remains at 13.7 percent of the total fleet, according to JETNET, with jets taking an average or more than a year to sell. That's down slightly from the 17 percent levels in 2008, but still above the 11 percent levels before the crisis. (Read more: A Peek Inside Boeing's New VIP Jet)
In its most recent industry report, JP Morgan said there are scant signs of an imminent bounce for private jets. While "corporate profit growth since the recession may have generated some pent-up demand, the outlook for slowing profit growth does not bode well," according to the report.
Aboulafia said he doesn't expect a recovery until 2016 or 2017.
The weak demand and prices has led to a radical restructuring in the private jet business, forcing all segments of the industry to conform to the new realities of flying private.
For jet makers, the future is about emerging markets like China, India, Brazil and the Middle East. Jet manufacturers are ramping up their sales staffs and expanding offices and support teams around the world to capture business from companies and the newly rich in these regions.
The jet makers are also launching products better suited to the new market. The top end of the market – with the biggest, fastest, most expensive planes – has been the most resilient. Gulfstream, for instance, has had strong demand for its new G650, an ultra-large cabin, ultra-high-speed jet that has a range of 7,000 miles. The price: $70 million.
In the mid-range and lower end of the market, aircraft builders are aiming for faster, more efficient planes. Learjet and FlexJet (both units of Bombardier) are rolling out the new Learjet 85 this fall, which is nearly 50 percent larger than the Lear 45, allowing passengers to stand in the cabin. It's also far more fuel efficient, since it's made from lighter carbon-fiber composites.
For fractional and charter and companies, the new game is providing lower prices, better service and more flexible offerings. The industry has seen a large rotation among jet owners and short-term customers, as those private fliers who used to own planes outright now opt for lower-priced fractional shares or charters.
Jet cards are also becoming highly popular among customers. The cards allow users to pay for a certain number of flight hours without the hastle or expense of ownership. Flexjet customers can pay about $200,000 for 25 hours on an eight-passenger Challenger 300. (Read more: A Big-Spending CEO Says, 'Simpler Is Better')
The surplus of jets in the market has led to a boom in the sales of seats or shares on individual flights. JetSuite, the California-based charter company, is now offering last-minute deals for $499. Travelers this week could charter one of JetSuite's Phenom jets – which seat four people – from Los Angeles to Las Vegas or from Washington to Boston. The $499 price was valid as long as the customers registered through Facebook.
Many other charter companies are offering larger jet charters for $5,000 or less per flight.
"Before the recession it was all about who had the biggest equipment on the jet ramp," said Alex Wilcox, CEO of JetSuite. "Now it's about who can be the smartest. People don't want to fly commercial, but they are very value focused."

How should we interpret the Bible? What is the role of tradition? What is the role of science? Who gets to decide whether traditional interpretations need to change?
"Being confronted with evolution may have been the catalyst for asking the difficult questions, but the real problem for me was not evolution – it was biblical literalism."
Once we recognize that no one takes the text literally, and that we have often failed to account for the details in the text regarding the time of day, we can begin anew to try to understand the text as an ancient text rather than as a modern one. As such, we must begin with the idea that the text operates in the world of omens, not the world of physics and astronomy.
This entry was originally posted on February 13, 2010. While the question of evolutionary predisposition toward religious belief may be challenging, Christians need not see it as threatening. In fact, this is actually a Pauline notion that is explored in Romans 1, where Paul claims that it is in mankind's nature to "know God".
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
This series, by Old Testament scholar Richard S. Hess, was first published as an appendix to Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith (Downers Grove: IVP Academic; Nottingham: Apollos, 2011).
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
There's a word beneath the water, and the Bow River belongs to God. Have you been listening?
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Genes and physiology are seen as something different from "us" and "our mind," and they seem to be controlling us, so we can't even change our mind. Humans are presented as pawns of their biology, puppets dancing to the tune of their genetic masters.
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
Do you believe in God? If a cadre of outspoken, strong atheists wrote a litmus test for scientists, that might very well be question #1.
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
Scientism is a rather strange word, but for reasons that we shall see, a useful one. Though this term has been coined rather recently, it is associated with many other "isms" with long and turbulent histories: materialism, naturalism, reductionism, empiricism, and positivism.
Barkley suggests that material creation is not the end of our understanding (as Naturalists think), but a beginning that unveils the majestic and power of a Creator who loves us.
Pastor Joseph Barkley of Ecclesia Church extols the greatness of the God who has brought forth incredible works and engaged humankind in relationship. In the first part of the sermon "Over and Above Naturalism," Barkley admires the factual knowledge unlocked by science, and yet reminds the Church that those material descriptions fail to answer the question of ultimate significance.

The two sides have agreed on the parameters of a one-year deal, the official said, and spent Thursday trying to finish off final details of Rivera's salary and incentives.
ESPN reported Wednesday that Rivera is expected to accept a pay cut from the $15 million he earned in 2012 — a guaranteed salary around $11-12 million — plus incentives that could allow him to reach $15 million in earning if he remains healthy all season.
Rivera, who turned 43 today, did not finish the season after tearing ligaments in his right knee in May.

Michael Coughlin lost his sight completely when he was just four years old. Now, 19, Michael is trying to get an education at Montgomery County Community College. SEPTA buses handle most of his transportation needs to-and-from classes, but sometimes he needs a taxi-cab. That's where our story begins.
It seemed simple enough: Michael Coughlin needed a cab ride last Friday afternoon from the bus stop at Main Street and Green in downtown Lansdale to his home a few miles away.
But Michael says that when he called Homestead Cab Company and informed the female dispatcher that he is blind, things didn't go as plan. He asked her to have the driver call him when the cab arrived, so the two could connect.
"This is when she started saying, 'we can't pick you up. We're going to have to cancel your ride' and blah, blah, blah, and I'm like, 'for what?' And she says, 'the driver can't assist you in any way,'" says Coughlin.
Michael says he made clear that he didn't need assistance with luggage or help getting into the cab. He just needed a call, so he and the cabbie could find each other. He says the dispatcher told him that Homestead could not accommodate his request.
In fact, Michael quotes her as saying: "'Our insurance doesn't cover this. You should be taking para-transit.'"
"I was like, 'what? I've never heard of this before and I've been taking taxis my whole life and I had a taxi from you guys earlier this week," says Coughlin.
Michael's mom says her son lives an active, independent life, despite his blindness. All he needed was a simple phone call.
"I was fuming," she says. "I was really upset that this still happens today."
Christy Coughlin says her calls to Homestead got no response. FOX 29 went to the company's Lansdale headquarters, but was told the owner was not in. The female dispatcher was not on duty when we visited.
Moments ago, Homestead owner Nick Chermela returned Bruce Gordon's call to explain that his policy of requiring an extra person to assist Michael with getting into or out of the cab will not change.
They will not pick him up without the Coughlin's supplying that extra helper. Chermela told FOX 29 that his drivers are not qualified to deal with a blind passenger.
"We're not a para-transit company," he said.
But both the advocacy group Liberty Resources and the Americans with Disabilities Act Mid-Atlantic help center tell FOX 29 that the taxi service should have provided Michael the ride he needed.
Christy Coughlin says that she plans to file complaints against Homestead at both the state and federal level.
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

Powerhouse Museum
KIMBERLEY WEBBER: The museum's over 125 years old. It was founded in 1880. And it's actually moved around Sydney quite a bit. It started out in Sydney's Domain, then moved down the road to Harris Street and then in 1988, opened here in what was a power station built to power the trams of Sydney in 1899. And after the trams were taken out, it became derelict and became the museum in 1988. So we're really standing in what was once a power station. And hence the name Sydney's Powerhouse.
We were founded as the Technological, Industrial and Sanitary Museum. And we've always had an interest in the history of technology and in transport. But we're also interested in Australian history and decorative arts and design. So we really cover quite a wide gamut of collections. We have about 300,000 objects in the collection. But as you can imagine, even in an enormous space like this, we still can't display them all. Only about 3% of the collection is on display.
The largest object we've got is undoubtedly the Catalina, which is an enormous aeroplane which was largely used in transporting goods before and during the Second World War. Probably our most precious object, and most surprising, in a way, is the Boulton & Watt rotative steam engine. This is one of only a number, a very small number, surviving in the world today. It was made by Boulton & Watt in their workshop in the 18th century and acquired by the museum in the 1880s and shipped to Australia in what was quite a remarkable enterprise at the time. Because it is also rather enormous.
The heaviest object would be 3830, which is a locomotive that's been restored to working order. And we use it for special events. It carries passengers on special trips. And every now and then, we have it steaming in our courtyard. And it is indeed a massive steam engine. We need a large space, and indeed that's why a power station is perfect, because it has very large volumes owing to the fact it once had enormous turbines and coalers and all those sorts of things going. So we've got about 20,000 square metres of exhibition space.
And, as our visitors would know, walking around it, every bit is pretty well full of transport objects, decorative arts objects, objects that tell us about Australian history, history of shopping - all sorts of things. The museum has always prided itself on relating, telling the stories in a way that's very accessible. So interactivity - being able to look at films, being able to use, these days, computer programs to explore understanding of how things like bridges might be built, of television and how that works, is very much part of our display ethic.
And we've also got special exhibitions for little ones. A really gorgeous exhibition on music for little children. So interactivity is really important and one of the pleasures of visiting the museum. These days, of course, using resources wisely is very important.
And we've got a very good exhibition called EcoLogic, which is about the environment. It's about how you, case studies in successful examples of water conservation, land use, agriculture. It's about, really, how Australia can be more successful in establishing sustainable practices across a wide range of industries.
And in Australian History, we have a terrific exhibition based around a local store from Binalong, which is just outside Geelong. A really lovely collection. This shop operated in the 19th century by a Chinese-Australian family. And it closed in 1917 and really nothing much happened to it. And that gives you a really lovely sense of walking back in time into a rural store. Visitors to the museum can see a range of material from highly specialised things, like the Lace Study gallery, to big transport halls, like we're standing in now, with wonderful large trains and planes and automobiles. So there's really something here for every member of the family, from little tiny ones up to grandparents, who can enjoy seeing objects they recall from their own childhoods and learning more about their role in Australian history.

The Obama administration is filled with scandels, some as harmless as (BULL CRAP) there are no harmless scandels within this administration. This is not about sex with an intern, or a beautiful actress or even killing a women too keep your personal affair quiet, which is what Ted Kennedy accomplished.
The above scandels rocked administrations in the past, however, where swept under the rug because they were viewed by the public as "personal" affairs and did not involve politics, only accidents of drunken (personal) misfortune.
The Obama Administration scandels singe the mind with a hot iron of injustice against an entire nation, an entire population, from promoting same sex marriage, too purchasing contraceptives for women, this administration crosses the political lines of "big government" on a daily basis. The core of the country is Family, and this adminsitration stands against it.
The Obama Administration scandels singe the mind with a hot iron of injustices against and entire nation, an entire population, from open porous borders, to sitting down for dinner with leaders of known terrorist org, that speak death and destruction (kill Ambassadors) to the soverignty of this nation. Allows drug cartels to purchase fire arms, weapons used too kill an American border patrol agent.
This President is an enemy of God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and his actions solidify his anti-christ belief everyday. I believe he is a muslim and has successfully infiltrated the political channels up and into the position of President. His adminstration is full of Anti-Americans, Anti-Christians, and Anti-Constitutionalists. He is deliberately destroying the Judeo-Christian foundation of this nation.

The popular 1995 movie Casino was a fictionalized account of the Las Vegas era of Chicago Outfit enforcer Tony Spilotro and Outfit associate Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal. One of the scenarios addressed in the film is the skimming of money from the casinos and into the pockets of several Midwest crime bosses. And the skim was real, not a creation of Hollywood.
On tonight's show co-hosts Andrew DiDonato and Denny Griffin will talk with retired FBI agent Lynn Ferrin. Lynn was the Las Vegas case agent for the skim investigations called Operation Strawman. Lynn will tell us the real story about how the skim was run, by whom, and how the feds brought it down. He'll also comment on the movie and how law enforcement was portrayed in the film. If you're a Mob buff, a Las Vegas or Casino fan, you won't want to miss this show.

A 'honeypot' is designed to detect server-side attacks. In contrast, a 'honeyclient' is designed to detect client-side attacks. Specifically, a honeyclient is a dedicated host that drives specially instrumented applications to access remote servers to see if those servers are behaving in a malicious manner (by compromising the client). Honeyclients can proactively detect exploits against client applications without known signatures. This framework uses a client-server model with SOAP messaging as the primary communication method, and uses the free version of VMware Server as a means of virtualizing the client environment.

Delaunay triangulator class in C++
Delaunay triangulation is a fundamental algorithm which has a vast range of applications, both in game development and in other research areas, such as AI and graph theory.
Many libraries include this algorithm among their functions , but they require adding many include files or link to big dll libraries just for getting the functions needed to run the algorithm. In many cases this is not a viable option.
This Delaunay triangulation class is contained in a single include file and it triangulates a set of unordered points in 2D space in the fastest way possible. In addition, the adjacency of each triangle is computed and redundant vertices are discarded.The algorithm used is the flip algorithm in a divide and conquer fashion.
What our users say:
"Great code that works as expected. It quickly triangulates 500+ points, removing duplicates and retaining original point indicies. Easier to use than Triangle in a c++ app and is a low-cost alternative for a commercial application." - Jason Dunn
An example of usage is shown below:
// first , define some random points in 2d space
double Px[1024],Py[1024];
int N=10;
for ( int i=0; i
// and a solid red brush
CBrush brushRed(RGB(155, 155, 155));
CBrush* pOldBrush = pDC->SelectObject(&brushRed);
// Find the midpoints of the top, right, left, and bottom
// of the client area. They will be the vertices of our polygon.
pts[0].x = (int)VertexPtr[ p1 ].x;
pts[0].y = (int)VertexPtr[ p1 ].y;
pts[1].x = (int)VertexPtr[ p2 ].x;
pts[1].y = (int)VertexPtr[ p2 ].y;
pts[2].x = (int)VertexPtr[ p3 ].x;
pts[2].y = (int)VertexPtr[ p3 ].y;
// Calling Polygon() on that array will draw three lines
// between the points, as well as an additional line to
// close the shape--from the last point to the first point
// we specified.
pDC->Polygon(pts, 3);
// Put back the old objects.
for ( i=0; i
// if you want to draw the adjacent triangle just use these lines of code
j=0; // we want adjacent traingles to triangle number 0
int p12;
p12=TrianglePtr[ j ].t1;
if ( p12!=-1) DrawPoly( pDC , p12 ,col2 );
p12=TrianglePtr[ j ].t2;
if ( p12!=-1) DrawPoly( pDC , p12 ,col1 );
p12=TrianglePtr[ j ].t3;
if ( p12!=-1) DrawPoly( pDC , p12 ,col3 );
Worked well and was fast.GC Graeme Cox
This library doesn't generates voronoi diagrams, its just the traingulator.
Hi. Im looking for some code to triangulate some large terrain models with over 300,000 points. How long does your code take to triangulate say 300,000 points?
The Delaunay triangulation complexity is O(n⌈d / 2⌉) where n is the number of points and d is the dimension , in this case d= 2 so you have O( n ), which is linear complexity. I think that triangulating 300,000 points would take approxx 2 mins.
I am not inventing anything, complexity theory is well known for triangulator, to be sure , before replying, i have just checked in one of my books.

I am pleased to announce that KPhotoAlbum 4.4 is available for download.
The main improvements on this version are support for libkipi 2.0.0 and greatly improved save time for the image database. Now it is also possible to remove duplicate images while merging the tags to the remaining image. And naturally a couple of bugs got fixed as well.
This week we discussed saving times on the KPhotoAlbum IRC channel, which made me give it a shot at rewriting the saving code from QDom to QXmlStreamWritter. I had a hunch that it would give quite some nice improvement in saving speed.
Now, if you have ever participated in one of my Qt training classes, you will likely have heard me say something like NEVER EVER trust your own hunches on where time is spend in your applications, USE A PROFILER!. Rewriting the code resulted in a disappointing 10% time reduction on saving, not the 50% or more I had hoped for. Sigh! Why do I never listen to myself?!
OK, so when I had callgrind and kcachgrind in action anyway, I could just as well look at what made it relatively slow at saving, and I found, not surprisingly, that it spend quite a bit of time in places I wouldn't have guessed in a million years. I got an impression 18% reduction simply by caching whether the XML file should be in compressed or readable format.
In total, depending on format used, and whether your KPhotoAlbum is build in debug or release mode, I got a reduction of time spend when saving between 62% and 73%, which means a speed up of 3-4.
Saving now takes less than 400ms on my database with 13800 images (of which more than 95% are tagged). I guess it will be a while before I need to revisit the speed of saving :-)
I am pleased to announce that KPhotoAlbum 4.3 available for download.
New features were described when announcing the beta version. Only minor bug fixing and addition of pattern based search was done since then.
Whe have a beta build available for the upcoming KPhotoAlbum 4.3. Give it a spin and give feedback to the mailing list (IRC and bug tracking are also viable options).
New features concentrate on video support improvements and background tasks. Also the database backend has been dropped completely leaving the XML backend as the only option. Automatic stacking of images based on file version detection has been brought to the maintenance menu giving control to the user instead of only performing the action upon starting of KPhotoAlbum.
Jesper has posted a video tutorial on YouTube demonstrating the new features that are available on the current development version of KPhotoAlbum.
There are some new features to test out on our git repository (master branch). They are mostly related to how videos are handled but also background job queue is implemented and some refactoring done, including removal of SQL backend. Any feedback is appreciated before pushing out a new release.
More information of the latest changes is available from KPhotoAlbum's Git Summary and Changelog.
Jesper was on a vacation and by tradition this means some news for KPhotoAlbum as well. This time he was hacking together some improvements on video support - and a lot of things under the hood. On visible side it is now possible to select the frame to be used as video thumbnail and while hovering over a thumbnail a few frames from the video are cycled over to give better idea what the video is about. Less visible improvements include e.g. new background tasks manager. It sure is great to see Jesper busy on improving KPhotoAlbum once in a while.
We are happy to announce a new release of KPhotoAlbum. The major changes including stability and speed improvements were described when announcing the release candidate 2. After that only a few minor changes were made.
You can get the KPhotoAlbum 4.2 from KDE mirrors.
Release candidate 2 of our next release is available on KDE FTP site.
Changes since the release of 4.1.1 include the following:
We are working on a new release. New features are frozen and the current GIT master should have all the features to be expected on the release. Some more bug fixes should be done before the release. We are planning on providing a release candidate soonish before the final release, but there is no date set for that.
There has also been a major change in the forces behind KPhotoAlbum. Jesper has decided to step back and has left a huge gap for other people to fill. We want to thank Jesper for his great work in producing the best photo cataloguing software known to exist!

Whitney loves Park City, all things outdoors, is an avid triathlete and mom to two young kids. To combine all of these loves after she had her second baby, Whitney started Mom's Power Hour - a 60 minute mix of cardio, drills, strength training and core work where moms can bring their kids to hang out and "witness fitness" at a young fun age. A popular concept that was missing in Park City at the time; Whitney was eager to bring that level of activity, motivation and "momraderie" to town. Whitney is a big believer in others and keeps a fun and enthusiastic attitude while challenging her classes. She has run two marathons, competed in numerous triathlons including 3 half-ironman triathlons in UT and AZ, multiple century road rides and she recently rode her bike from San Francisco to San Diego to help raise $1Million for the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF).
Whitney lived in San Diego for 7 years before returning to Park City after working for the 2002 Winter Olympic Committee. Even though the beach life is tough to leave, she and her husband felt a great pull to get back to Park City and they have found a great nook in the happy mountain town and community. Whitney teaches classes for Basin Recreation and the Waldorf Astoria, and when not in her running shoes, does concierge work at Hotel Park City.
A full fledged libra, she thrives on keeping fun balance in her life- her family, her day to day as a mom, her friends, her work, her sweaty pursuits, her community, her creative projects, her hospitality & wine....
Always encouraging and grateful; Whitney has always believed that if you love life, it will love you back.

The Watchdog
9:14 PM EDT, May 25, 2013
Memorial Day is here, and summer vacation season soon will be in full swing.
I don't have to tell you how expensive vacations can be. If you're like me, you're always looking for ways to cut the cost without reducing the fun. If you think joining a travel club will save you money, do your homework before signing up because if you don't, you may find yourself regretting it.
Clubs promise they can offer discounted travel to popular destinations. But I've heard from several people, including a Whitehall Township resident just last week, who told me that after signing up they found the prices weren't better than what they could find on their own, or the travel options were limited.
I'm not saying you shouldn't join a travel club. I'm saying you should take your time and make sure it's the right fit and worth your money. That means looking at its offerings, comparing prices and making sure the club has a good reputation before dropping thousands of dollars on a membership.
Don't be rushed into a decision on the spot after hearing a slick sales pitch in some hotel conference room or other leased space, where these presentations often are made to people who are lured by offers of airline tickets and cruises just for attending.
Nationwide, more than 2,000 people filed complaints last year with the Better Business Bureau about travel clubs.
The Better Business Bureau in Dallas said in a report last month that the complaints "provide a glimpse into a complex network of evolving and widespread travel club schemes that deceptively operate throughout the country."
Authorities nationwide have taken steps to shut down clubs, including in Pennsylvania.
The state attorney general's office is seeking about $850,000 in fines and restitution from Daryl T. Turner and clubs the state says he operated, Dreamworks Vacation Club and Five Points Travel of Willow Grove. The state sued them in 2010, alleging they misrepresented travel packages they sold.
A hearing is scheduled for June in Montgomery County Court.
Turner, of Marlton, N.J., and his attorneys did not return my calls. In court papers, Turner denied the accusations.
Court papers filed this month say 51 customers were "victimized." Attorney general spokesman Dennis Fisher told me that includes two people from Northampton County and a couple from Lehigh County.
The difficulties that local residents told me they've experienced after signing up for travel clubs are consistent with what the Better Business Bureau found during its recent investigation.
"Consumers are often dismayed that the deals they were promised during the presentation were highly inflated, and the deals they can receive through their new membership aren't significantly better than the deals that they can find online using many popular and free online travel deal websites," the report said.
According to the BBB, the sales process starts with a marketer who sends vague solicitations saying you've been selected to receive a cruise or airline tickets. The BBB says that when you call to claim your award, a scheduler who is equally vague tries to get you to attend a sales presentation.
"Consumers accuse schedulers of being deceptive in their methods of booking the presentation as well as evasive in disclosing that the consumer will need to attend a sales presentation to receive their gift," the report says.
If you attend, the BBB says, a travel club distributor who is paid on commission will try to sell you a membership.
"Many consumers throughout the country accuse distributors of high-pressure sales tactics while often using dishonest and deceptive terms," the BBB said in its report.
And what about those airline tickets or cruise you are entitled to? The BBB says they often turn out not to be free as you may have assumed, "and you'll have to work the system just right if you ever want to receive them."
That also matches what a few local people told me they experienced after attending presentations. They said they learned they'd have to pay $70 to "activate" the airfare and then another $50 to $65 per person in fees. The cruise costs were even more.
If you get a postcard or phone call awarding you airline tickets or a cruise, don't start packing your bags just yet. A Berks County man recently sent me a solicitation he received saying he had qualified for an award of two airline tickets.
Pay attention to the fine print. My wife got the same mailing at our home and on the back it says taxes, registration and processing fees are not included.
I called the number on the letter and was told the tickets were being provided by a wholesale travel company. To get them, I'd have to attend a "short open house" where the company would introduce its services. I was told I would not be subjected to a time share sales pitch or "high-pressure sales."
I'll pass.
If you receive an offer like this and decide to attend a presentation, don't let yourself be rushed into making a decision on the spot. If a club is legit, it will be happy to take your money a few days or weeks later, after you've had time to check it out.

Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today after Senate Republicans voted to block the Veterans Jobs Corps bill, which would have provided $1 billion over five years to assist veterans in finding jobs:
"It is a national shame that our brave veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan return from war and have to fight for a job here at home. But today when Senate Democrats tried to pass a fully paid-for bill that will put veterans to work, Republicans said no.
"Once again, Republicans have put politics before progress by blocking legislation to employ those who have worn our nation's uniform as firefighters and police officers and in conservation jobs on public lands and to use their expert military training for civilian jobs. House Republicans have rejected a similar proposal in committee.
"This is a travesty for Congress to leave town to face the voters without getting this important jobs bill done. Just as our service members pledge to leave no one behind on the battlefield, we must leave no veteran behind when they come home."

SOURCE Pixelfire
Electronic Billboard Courtesy of Seattle's Pixelfire
SEATTLE, Jan. 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- New York is enemy territory for the Seahawks, but that isn't deterring Seattle area company Pixelfire from showing the famed 12th Man flag in the heart of NYC in Times Square on the 7 Times Square electronic billboard before the Big Game.
Such high visibility for Seahawks support in NYC is a gutsy move for a production company based in Renton, WA, a working class suburb of Seattle, but Pixelfire President Steve Bumstead is a die-hard Seahawks fan with a knack for clever gorilla marketing. His Creative Director Marvin Sanders came up with the scheme. "My first thought was to give equal sign time to Seattle and Denver, but why waste valuable screen time on Denver?" quips Sanders. "We hope it gets boisterous fans fired up to break a record," says Bumstead.
Noise is legendary for the Seahawks on their home turf where the Guinness Book of World Records logged 136.6 decibels at CenturyLink field during a 29-3 win over the 49ers. The Seahawks' website reports that's 13.4 decibels short of "eardrum rupture."
Seattle's fans are known as "The 12th Man," and as the loudest in the NFL, compelling the League to establish a noise rule in 1985. Despite the rule, the 12th Man continues, giving the Seahawks a home field advantage, but it remains to be seen whether fans in New York will match that home field advantage in the upcoming Super Bowl at MetLife stadium in New Jersey. They'll have to beat The Chiefs' who since hit a record 137.5 decibels at Arrowhead.
This gesture of support is made possible because much of Pixelfire's business is in Times Square where they create content for several of the digital screens. Since the mid-1990's Pixelfire has pioneered content for all types of screens and interactive applications using augmented reality, mobile devices, and motion input devices like Kinect for Windows and Computervision. In 2009 Pixelfire led the industry when their PIX-iT™ technology debuted on JVC's HD LED display in Times Square. PIX-iT™ engages live audiences in a virtual advertising medium allowing cell phone photos to appear on huge LED billboards in real time.
12th Man Lore:
The tradition of the 12th Man Flag began in 2003, when 12 fans hoisted a huge flag before kickoff.
