They are back and running this time over at Linkshare.
Just a bit of history here folks and newbies. They bailed at CJ and didn't pay their bill. So far all you newbies out there, don't ever count on money from these guys. Their money might be good for a month or two but beware.
Also Giant Rewards is over at CJ, which came from Linkshare, and left alot of unpaid affiliates as well. :mad:

How is it always the "incent" type programs that end up breeding parasite/scumware/spamm farming e-businesses. Freddie Freeloader's ( fill in your favorite incent URL) newest reincarnation under another network sure isn't news when it comes to shafting consumers and affiliates. These operations are run by the MLMers and direct marketing types that love manipulating the internet masses knowing a sucker is born every minute.
Nothing for them to pay 15.00 for a new domain, 5 page website and some sleezzy lawyer to setup a dummy paperwork corporation and start harvesting privacy info and leave affiliates crying for their monies. I refuse to get into this category regardless of the potential profits since the principles have no principles. Anything having to do with FREE or incent lays the groundwork for spamming and trojan adware as phase II.

A life member of the Albury Wodonga-based basketball club the Border Bandits says Lauren Jackson will be aiming high at the London Olympics.

The Albury-raised international basketball star has represented Australia in the last three Olympics. On all three occasions the Opals has been runner-up to the United States of America.
Rob McDonald told the ABCs Gaye Pattison that Lauren Jackson will be giving her best in London.
"When I last spoke to her and saw her here in Albury-Wodonga, she's very, very determined that she's going to go as far as she can with this one and if anybody can drag that team across the line and inspire them to go to the greatest levels to try and get over the US it will be Lauren Jackson cause she's determined to finish up with that gold medal."
It's been a memorable Olympics so far for Jackson; she carried the Australian team flag at the opening ceremony and has become the all-time leading point scorer in Olympic women's basketball history.
The Opals will play the USA in the Olympics women's basketball semi-finals later this week.

Twisted Sister Guitarist: Rock Is Dead
While Twisted Sister defiantly claimed that "You Can't Stop Rock And Roll", guitarist Jay Jay French seems to think that this is no longer the case.
While Twisted Sister defiantly claimed that "You Can't Stop Rock And Roll" back in their 1980s heyday, guitarist Jay Jay French seems to think that this is no longer the case. Speaking in an interview with Greek website Rock Overdose (translation provided by RockAAA), French offers a pretty grim prognosis for rock music:
"In the United States it's dead. There are almost no rock bands anymore on the charts if you look. Foo Fighters maybe once in a while but the fact is the heavy rock scene is completely dead from a commercial stance as the charts are all dance music... the symbol of Keith Richards or Axl Rose or Led Zeppelin or of excess and all that on the rock side is almost invisible at this point. So yes the Rolling Stones, ACDC or Judas Priest can still go on tour and Twisted Sister can go on tour and be more popular than we've ever been but young people who listen to new music? It's not that popular just now and I think that's just the cycle we are going through."
What's more, fans expecting new material from the band are set to be disappointed. According to the guitarist, the group has no plans to record material in the near future because there isn't the demand for it:
"We don't really see a reason why to record. When a new one comes out you maybe play one song from it because nobody cares so it's pointless. I'd rather play what everybody wants to hear than play something they are not familiar with... That just happens to be the way the situation is these days. It doesn't pay and nobody buys the material anyway so it doesn't make any sense to do it. Most bands are never honest enough to say it and want to say they are still making new material but nobody really cares."
Twisted Sister are set for a series of international festival appearances this summer. Based on Jay Jay's comments, it would seem that a greatest hits set is on the cards for those shows.

Flamboyant man-about-town, Oscar Wilde had a reputation that preceded him, especially in his early career. He was born to a middle-class Irish family (his father was a surgeon) and was trained as a scholarship boy at Trinity College, Dublin. He subsequently won a scholarship to Magdalen College, Oxford, where he was heavily influenced by John Ruskin and Walter Pater, whose aestheticism was taken to its radical extreme in Wilde's work. By 1879 he was already known as a wit and a dandy; soon after, in fact, he was satirized in Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience. Largely on the strength of his public persona, Wilde undertook a lecture tour to the United States in 1882, where he saw his play Vera open---unsuccessfully---in New York. His first published volume, Poems, which met with some degree of approbation, appeared at this time. In 1884 he married Constance Lloyd, the daughter of an Irish lawyer, and within two years they had two sons. During this period he wrote, among others, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1891), his only novel, which scandalized many readers and was widely denounced as immoral. Wilde simultaneously dismissed and encouraged such criticism with his statement in the preface, "There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written or badly written. That is all." In 1891 Wilde published A House of Pomegranates, a collection of fantasy tales, and in 1892 gained commercial and critical success with his play, Lady Windermere's Fan He followed this comedy with A Woman of No Importance (1893), An Ideal Husband (1895), and his most famous play, The Importance of Being Earnest (1895). During this period he also wrote Salome, in French, but was unable to obtain a license for it in England. Performed in Paris in 1896, the play was translated and published in England in 1894 by Lord Alfred Douglas and was illustrated by Aubrey Beardsley. Lord Alfred was the son of the Marquess of Queensbury, who objected to his son's spending so much time with Wilde because of Wilde's flamboyant behavior and homosexual relationships. In 1895, after being publicly insulted by the marquess, Wilde brought an unsuccessful slander suit against the peer. The result of his inability to prove slander was his own trial on charges of sodomy, of which he was found guilty and sentenced to two years of hard labor. During his time in prison, he wrote a scathing rebuke to Lord Alfred, published in 1905 as De Profundis. In it he argues that his conduct was a result of his standing "in symbolic relations to the art and culture" of his time. After his release, Wilde left England for Paris, where he wrote what may be his most famous poem, The Ballad of Reading Gaol (1898), drawn from his prison experiences. Among his other notable writing is The Soul of Man under Socialism (1891), which argues for individualism and freedom of artistic expression. There has been a revived interest in Wilde's work; among the best recent volumes are Richard Ellmann's, Oscar Wilde and Regenia Gagnier's Idylls of the Marketplace , two works that vary widely in their critical assumptions and approach to Wilde but that offer rich insights into his complex character.

Multi-national, Open-label, Active-controlled, Randomized Dose-finding Study to Evaluate Efficacy of 2 Doses of AP 12009 in Recurrent Glioma, Administered Intratumorally as Continuous High-flow Microperfusion Over 7 Days Every Other Week
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of two doses of AP 12009 and
standard chemotherapy in adult patients with recurrent high-grade glioma (anaplastic
astrocytoma [AA], WHO grade III; or glioblastoma [GBM], WHO grade IV). AP 12009 is a
phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide specific for the mRNA of human transforming
growth factor-beta2 (TGF-beta2). The growth factor TGF-beta plays a key role in malignant
progression of various tumors by inducing proliferation, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis
and escape from immunosurveillance. It has been shown that in a number of tumor types the
degree of TGF-beta production strongly correlates with tumor grade and stage. In patients
with high-grade glioma, the TGF-beta2 overexpression is associated with disease stage,
clinical prognosis and the immunodeficient state of the patients.
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Overall response rate of two AP 12009 dose groups and control group assessed by the evaluation of tumor size on brain MRI scans

Only one party can be happy with the local elections results so far, Ukip. Nigel Farage's party has so far added 86 councilors to its tally and these results suggest that Sunday, when the European Election votes are counted, should be a good night for the party.
Labour's results have been mixed to disappointing. Their best news of the night was picking up Hammersmith and Fulham off the Tories. Knocking over one of the Tories' flagship councils will delight Labour. But Hammersmith is a region where the demographics have been running against the Tories, look at how Shaun Bailey failed to win the parliamentary seat last time.
Labour has also gained control of Merton and Cambridge City councils. But they've lost control of the council in the key marginal of Thurrock. They also didn't take Swindon and Tamworth. Considering that one of Labour's aim in these elections was to give itself a local government launch-pad for the general election, this has to be a blow.
The Tories are losing seats and councils. But the party is confident that it'll still be the largest party in local government once all these results are counted. As in so many things, the crucial question for the Tories is whether the rise of Ukip is a temporary surge or a permanent phenomenon. If it is the former, then these results are fine for the Tories. But if it is the latter, then this split on the right could cost the party heavily.
Nick Clegg's Liberal Democrats have lost a slew of councilors. But the party is busy pointing to how its vote has tended to hold up in its own seats. We'll have to see whether this trend continues.
Ukip, though, are the big winners so far. The results in Essex have been particularly good for them and the party now appears to be the main opposition to Labour in the urban north.

The Jewish Book Carnival: Some reading recommendations from around the Jewish blogosphere.
Chade: In memory of a wild Canaan dog who made himself at home in our hearts
The first sign of his presence was a large canine footprint in the silt of the little fish pond. Crushed water plants and puzzled fish. A wild Canaan dog straight off the hills, he would go on to leave his footprints on our hearts.
Weapons & Norms: an Israeli perspective on gun violence
I live in a country with wars raging on all sides, with failed states collapsing into a primordial stew of hatred and nihilism an hour's drive north of me, with suicidal regimes seeking nuclear weapons in order to carry out their expressed goals of obliterating me, my family, and everyone with whom I interact on a daily basis. But for all this, I don't feel as if I'm living in a war zone. We know about death and we know about weapons of war, but we don't fetishize them. How is it that Americans seem willing to arm the enemy within for the sake of security?
Havel Havelim: blogging on the edge of the abyss
This week's Havel Havelim kick's off on Rosh Hodesh Av, a time of mourning for past tragedies and hope for future redemption. Many of this week's developments remind us of how far we have to go, and how great a danger still hangs over us. But others remind us of how far we've come. May we continue to grow, learn, and become!

Author's Note: This started out being really sweet and fluffy, but then progressed into Artemis becoming somewhat of a fangirl. I may or may not have incorporated some of my thoughts and Birdflash-obsession into Artemis' mind. Judge me as you please.
Warnings: OOC-ish Artemis (but it's funner that way), Birdflash (Wally x Robin).
Disclaimer: If I owned Young Justice, Wally and Robin would show their obvious love for each other all the time.
The idea doesn't really occur to her until she's returning from a mission she had with Green Arrow. The moment she steps out of the zeta tube, she hears Robin's all too familiar laughter. The closer she gets to the living room, the louder it gets, and it doesn't sound like it's stopping anytime soon.
When she arrives in the doorway, she sees Robin and Wally on the couch—or, Wally on Robin, who's on the couch—and she stops for a moment, watching them. Wally's tickling Robin relentlessly, shouting "Take it back! Take it back!" and as threatening as he may be trying to sound, there's too much joy and laughter in his voice to even scare a fly.
Robin, trapped beneath the redhead, is laughing and squirming. And as easily as he could throw the other off, he doesn't. He simply submits to Wally's fingers as they scatter across his body, squealing "I must not tell lies! I must not tell lies!" in between his spurts and bursts of giggles.
Finally, Wally stops tickling the other, opting instead to clutch Robin's wrists and hold them above his head. They're both grinning and breathless, heaving hot air into each other's faces, although they don't seem to mind as their faces get close and Wally's nose touches the tip of Robin's.
Artemis almost chokes, whether out of shock or because the picture she sees before her is too sweet. She thinks it's a mixture of both, but despite her shock, she almost wants to get her phone out and snap a picture.
If she didn't know any better, Artemis would've thought they were lovers.
"Y'know, I could totally beat the crap outta you right now," Robin mumbles, almost ruining the sweet, playful mood that's settled in the room. But he's grinning, and looks a bit sleepy from all the tickling and giggling and squirming, adding to the cuteness factor.
"But you won't," Wally mumbles back, looking a bit weary himself. And then, for a reason Artemis still doesn't know (and even if she did, she doesn't think she'd understand anyway), Robin and Wally both break out into uncontrollable laughter. It's as if Wally's still tickling him, except he's not. They're just laughing. For no reason.
It was in that moment that Artemis questioned how much of a bromance their relationship actually was. As close as Robin and KF were, having known each other before the team had even been formed and the fact that they were best friends, Artemis can almost feel the difference in their relationship. Of course she's seen other guys—and even girls—be best friends and be so comfortable with each other that to outsiders, they seemed like a couple.
But Robin and Wally were different. And Artemis, she decided that day, would prove it.
1.) The way they talk.
She first notices it while they're on a mission. They're sort of lost and Miss Martian is totally out of telepathic range and they have no idea where Robin went—he was there just a second ago!—and Artemis is kind of freaking out.
Not only is she freaking out, but she's also stuck with Wally, who is also freaking out. Not the best combination.
"Of all times to pull the disappearing ninja act!" Wally shouts, throwing his hands up in exasperation, and Artemis thinks Definitely the worst combination, especially when Kid Dork's boyfriend is missing, and then she snickers to herself. Wally rounds on her. "This isn't funny!"
"It's totally funny. I'll be sure to tell Robin about your lack of faith in him, considering he's probably off doing something smart that'll save our butts," she tells him, hoping it might shut him up so she can think.
Wally says something back… Or at least, Artemis thinks he does, but Wally always starts to talk really fast when he's excited or nervous or totally freaking out, and considering he can run faster than the speed of sound, his mouth can, too.
Artemis is about tell him how dumb he sounds when he speed-talks, but then she's jumping at the sound of "He said he doesn't doubt my abilities, he doubts yours." She turns around, startled, to glare at Robin as he cackles.
"You scared the crap out of me! Geez, don't do that!" She shouts, but she's pretty sure Robin's attention is elsewhere as KF grabs his shoulders and says something she totally doesn't understand because he's still talking faster than the laws of physics should really allow.
But somehow, Robin seems to understand just exactly what he's saying, again, as he laughs in reply and says, "I won't. Promise."
She wants to ask how Robin can even understand Kid Mouth, but stops herself before she says it, instead deciding to put it on her "Why Robin and Wally Are Boyfriends" list.
2.) They way they walk.
Every other Sunday, Batman gives his batcard (at least, that's what Artemis has nicknamed the slick, black Visa) to Robin, and they're all forced to go to the grocery store to stock up on food. And it's on one of these Sundays that she realizes—Robin and Wally hold hands.
Okay, maybe not all the time, but when Wally says he wants bananas, and Artemis tells him to get them himself, he cheerily says "C'mon Rob," and grabs the Boy Wonder by the hand. And okay, maybe their hands aren't totally laced, but there's no reason KF couldn't have just grabbed Robin by the arm.
Every time either Wally or Robin want something, they'll lightly lace their knuckles or pull on the ends of the other's fingers. Sometimes they just lead them a little bit away and then drop the other's hand, but almost half the time, Artemis notices that their hands are always slightly connected—by their pinky's or their knuckles, or sometimes they just completely lace their fingers together!
It's not just the hand holding, either. It's like they can't find the potato chips on their own! As if they go searching for the pudding and don't have some kind of hold on each other, they'll get lost. The archer can almost hear My Heart Will Go On playing in the background.
At one point, Artemis watches as Wally and Robin are both sent to fetch soda, and Wally leads Robin away with his arm wrapped around his waist. He's not even gently laying his hand on the small of his back! Wally's arm is completely wrapped tightly around him, his hand on the younger's hip. And Robin doesn't even say anything or push him away. Artemis swears she even sees the Boy Wonder smile.
Although Artemis isn't complaining. It only gives her more evidence.
3.) The way they cook for each other.
"What would I do without you, babe?"
Artemis looks up from her book to see Robin handing Wally a plate of pancakes at the breakfast bar. Wally is beaming up at a laughing Robin. "Eat the pancake powder out of the box," Robin says.
Wally shoves an entire pancake in his mouth before saying "Yeah, probably."
It is a little known fact that nobody really makes dinner for everyone to eat. M'gann tries—she really does—and everyone appreciates it. But overall, her dinners are usually just as bad as her desserts—burnt, and made with all the wrong ingredients. Her last attempt at spaghetti turned into a block of morphed noodles with salsa on top.
Typically, everyone fairs for themselves. Artemis almost always resorts to using the microwave, as do many of the other occupants of the cave. But another little known fact is that Robin can cook. When he's feeling generous, he'll make his famous tortellini for one lucky house occupant, and on days they have big missions, he'll make bacon and eggs for everyone.
But that's almost never… unless you're Wally West, who Robin will always cook for if he's got the time.
Another little known fact is that Wally can cook as well, so long as he takes his time… Which also rarely happens, unless you're the Boy Wonder.
Sometimes, Artemis creeps in the shadows (and totally does not spy and look for more evidence) and watches as Wally cooks pancakes for Robin. Robin will sit on the island counter behind Wally, who is standing at the stove. And occasionally Wally will turn around and put one hand on either side of Robin, and once, Artemis even saw Robin wrap his legs around Wally's waist.
Totally not bro behavior.
Sometimes, Wally turns the little radio on that sits by the sink and will dance around, trying to get Robin to hop off the counter and dance with him. Although he never does, he still smiles and laughs as Wally trips over his own feet.
It's on these mornings that Artemis feels they're a lot more sweet and loving—even more like a couple than usual. And if she were to think about it (which she totally won't. Ever. Gross.), she'd think it was the morning after Wally and Robin…
4.) The way they sleep ("sleep") in each other's rooms.
Artemis hasn't given anyone the code to her room. It's not that she doesn't trust her teammates, because really, she trusts all of them with her life. But even though she has her own room at home, she likes to have a place all to herself at her second home. And really, there's no reason for everyone to know it, because nobody really knows anyone's room codes anyway.
Except Wally and Robin, of course.
Artemis doesn't realize this until she's walking back to her room with a late night snack, and sees Wally scampering over to Robin's room, tapping in the code on the box on the wall and entering without Robin's aid. Through her suspicion and obvious care for Robin's belongings/identity/whatever (hey, for all Artemis knows, Wally could be sneaking a peak beneath Robin's mask! Or stealing his favorite sunglasses!), she leaves her door open for the night and watches.
Wally doesn't leave Robin's room until the sun just starts to peak in through the archer's curtains. And he doesn't leave alone.
Shortly after, Artemis smells pancakes and hears the sound of the radio from the kitchen.
5.) The way Wally has totally stopped hitting on her.
Okay, so maybe Artemis is exaggerating, juuuust a bit. But he certainly doesn't pay as much attention to her as usual.
In fact, Wally and Robin pay the most attention to each other.
Of course they still hang out with the rest of the team—Robin had gone to the mall with M'gann, Conner, and Artemis, herself, just the other day, and Wally had played basketball with Kaldur and Conner just last night. But half the time they spend at the cave, they spend together. Even when they have movie nights and the whole team snuggles on the couch, Wally and Robin "take one for the team" and snuggle up together on the recliner.
Artemis notices that Wally's advances on M'gann have lessened. Anytime he normally could've—and would've—easily slipped a terribly corny pick-up line or compliment into the conversation, he didn't. She finds herself shocked when M'gann opens the windows in the living room, complaining that it's hot, and Wally doesn't say "Not as hot as you, babe!" He just continues fiddling with a Rubik's cube at lightning speed.
Normally, the archer would have suspected that Robin was jealous… But honestly, he doesn't seem the jealous type. Which leads Artemis to believe that Wally doesn't even want to flirt with anybody else—doesn't want to be with anybody else. Only Robin.
Artemis will forever deny swooning over that thought.
The hidden number.) This is not part of the list, but it needs a number anyway.
Artemis marches to the living room, list in hand, unable to handle it anymore. She's got solid evidence and a list! They are together and she will prove it!
She thrusts the list in Wally's face. "Just admit it!" She says. "I already know your secret. So just tell us!"
Wally takes the list and begins to read. Robin lifts his head off Wally's lap (that needs to go on the list, too) to read it, as well. When they finish, they look at each other, then the list, then Artemis, and back to each other, before bursting out into laughter.
"'Why Wally and Robin Are Boyfriends?'" Robin manages to say through his laughter.
"B-boyfriends!" Wally laughs. "Oh god, I can't… I can't believe—!" And he throws his head back, laughing all the while.
"Look!" Artemis points at Robin, who has fallen back onto the couch, his head back in Wally's lap, and is clutching his stomach. "All the cuddly, touchy-feely! I mean really!" She snatches the list back from Wally and shoves it at M'gann. "Tell me you don't notice all of these things!"
M'gann skims the list quickly before lowering it to look over at the still-laughing Wally and Robin. "Well, they do get a long extremely well…"
"But that could attribute to the fact that they're best friends."
"Bromance!" Wally shouts from the couch, and Robin lets out a giggle from his lap.
"More like romance," Artemis scoffs, snatching the list and folding it into her pocket. "You guys will see. One day. They'll come out of the closet, or they'll start kissing each other during a mission because they think they're gonna die, or something… And you'll all owe me ten bucks!" She points her finger around the room, glowering at each of her teammates, before she begns to head back to her room. She passes by Roy before she can make it to her door, and he's smirking at her, so she bumps his shoulder. "Except you," she tells him. "You'll owe me twenty." And she stalks back to her room.
"Oh, Robin!" Wally shouts a moment later.
"Yes, my love?" Robin replies, grinning as Wally takes his hands and leans up to get close to his face.
"I love you! I always have!" Robin mock gasps and presses the back of his hand to his forehead. "Marry me, won't you? Won't you, darling?"
Robin giggles before swooning and falling into Wally's chest. "Of course, my love! We will be together forever!"
"I see right through you two!" Artemis shouts from her room. "Totally lovers!"
6.) The way they come out.
"We're a couple."
"And we have been for the past year and a half."
"So deal with it—ow. Okay, sorry… No, but seriously. Anyone got any issues?"
"Artemis? Really?"
"You owe me ten bucks, and you owe me ten bucks, and you! You owe me twenty bucks!"

CAHSRA is responsible for planning, designing, building and operating the first high-speed rail system in the nation. California high-speed rail will connect the mega-regions of the state, contribute to economic development and a cleaner environment, create jobs and preserve agricultural and protected lands.
As of Oct. 2012, Frank Vacca has been the Chief Program Manager for the California High-Speed Rail Authority. In his role, Vacca leads technical and engineering teams as they focus on delivering the high-speed rail project.
Vacca has a long and varied background in rail management, most recently as the Chief Engineer of Amtrak – a position he has held since 2006. He has held several other key positions with the national rail line. Vacca was also the Deputy General Manager for Infrastructure Engineering at New Jersey Transit. Vacca has more than 35 years of experience in commuter, inter-city and high-speed passenger rail systems.
High-Speed Rail is Already Under Construction in California
There's nothing more exciting than the high-speed rail program and project…I believe California will be the first high-speed-rail system in North America…We've overcome all the legal challenges before us…We have the first billion-dollar contract, and the designs are mature enough to start construction…So there's nothing, no obstacles, in front of us right now.
San Francisco to Los Angeles: Building in Segments
You can't wake up one morning and have 500 miles of railroad constructed. It takes time, and you do a segmental approach, not unlike the Highway System…We'll be working on three major segments at the same time, and then once they get closer to completion we'll fill the gaps to finish the entire program.
HSR Projects in Progress Around the Country
Texas high-speed rail is a great program that's moving forward on environmental right now between Houston and Dallas. Express West is also another high-speed-rail program that is continuing to make progress. We are coordinating with both of those programs to make sure that we are in lock step with our development so that we have a system in the U.S. that is coordinated.
We Need Strong Infrastructure Leadership
The infrastructure situation in this country is becoming critical in all modes of transportation…We need leaders, and leadership, to bring that forward in the policy perspective because it is so foundational for our economy, for transportation, and for all walks of life and for everyone here.

Project Runway Season ten fashion designer Nathaniel Paul made a stop in Zanesville Sunday, but he is no stranger to the area.
Son of C.A.S.S./M.I.N.D. Academy CEO Cassandra McDonald, Paul was born and raised in Zanesville. Sunday at the Buckingham House, a New York style runway show was held to kick off Zanesville's own Project Runway Ohio, which will take place in April.
"What it's going to involve is the challenge of Project Runway for beginners, intermediate, and advanced." said McDonald. "So they will come and bring their wears and be chosen in those categories. We'll have a fashion show each time with their category."
McDonald says a fashion show is a great way to bring together the three main focuses of the C.A.S.S./M.I.N.D. Academy, business, art, and music.
"There are a lot of creative people in Zanesville, and even though I'm not in Zanesville I'm still a part of this community, and I think it's a good way of bringing exposure to the artistic point of view that the city has, and that it can develop into." said fashion designer Nathaniel Paul.
Paul will make a trip back to the Y-Bridge city in April once "Runway Ready" of Zanesville is underway. If you would like to be involved, you can call 1-888-204-4277

A sold-out show. Engaging breakout sessions. Opportunity everywhere. On Friday, July 29 the open source NFV and SDN community met at the Google Tech Corner Campus in Sunnyvale for first CORD (TM) Summit. Attracting nearly 300 attendees, the inaugural event was an absolute success. During the week leading up to CORD Summit, ON.Lab and The Linux Foundation collaborated with CORD partners and collaborators on three major announcements. Click to read the press and analyst highlights from the summit.
Tags CORD Summit, events, media, OpenCORD, summit
CORD is a purposely-overloaded term. It is simultaneously a vision (a shared goal that the open source community is working towards), an architecture (a set of abstractions and interfaces), and a reference implementation (a set of technology choices that result in a complete and functional system).
Tags micro-services architecture, platform, reference implementation
Experience deploying Content Distribution Networks into carrier networks had an important influence on CORD's design. (This was before the term NFV had been coined.)
Many technology choices and design decisions went into the CORD reference implementation. Understanding the rationale behind those decisions helps explain why the current version of CORD looks the way it does, and provides a sense of how we expect CORD to evolve over time.
Tags agile, greenfield, platform
Welcome to the CORD blog, where I hope the community can discuss and comment on technical (and other) issues related to the reference implementation we are building. I thought I'd get the ball rolling by talking about what I see to be the most innovative and disruptive aspect of CORD.

Byrdgang ft. Jim Jones, NOE & Hell Rell - Heart Beat
By Burmy | Posted June 26, 2008
Thanks to the massive success of We Fly High, Jim Jones has become the face of the Diplomats. After numerous guest appearances, a new deal with Sony, and the moderately successful Harlem's American Gangster, the former Capo is bringing his Byrdgang crew into the spotlight with the July 1 release of M.O.B. (Members Of Byrdgang): The Album. On a potential follow-up to the reworked single Splash, Jones offers a somewhat more emotional verse than we're used to hearing, openly acknowledging his fear of the feds, rival gangs, and how fast his Heart Beat increases when he's around both. Backed up by NOE, Hell Rell and a beat by Oneya (for the Ulepics), Heart Beat is one of the brighter moments on the M.O.B.

Win the Instagame: How to get more followers on Instagram
If you're expecting a long, confusing strategy that guarantees you how to get more followers on Instagram in a certain amount of time; you'll be disappointed! I'm not a late night TV infomercial pitch guy promising a quick fix to all that ails you. I'm real life proof that all you need is a phone camera, creativity, and patience to become more Instagram Famous than you ever thought possible. The same philosophy is applicable to brands, as well. All in all, it's not a complicated game to play.
Where to Start
Instagram, in its most basic form, is a photo-sharing platform. Oh, and if you haven't heard, it's now also a short video-sharing platform, too! In today's information age, IG definitely isn't considered a new kid the block but it's still relatively young just turning 3 years old. There are a few key factors which make it different than most other popular social network. The primary difference is it's strictly mobile uploads. Apple and Android come together.
I'm a Verizon fanboy, using both the Samsung galaxy note 3 along with my older galaxy cam. Another difference is seen with Instagram's simplistic interface. Your content does the talking while functions are very simple and easy to use. Also, there aren't any clickable external web links within posts (that may soon change. Ultimately IG rewards content creation more than any other network I've been a part of.
Fortunately, for all intensive metaphorical purposes, there really is a way to win the Instagame! All your hard work and time you put in now will be rewarded 10 fold once your posts hit the popular page. You may never reach this goal, but this should be your end game. You'll get 500-2000 new followers (appx) for each post which appears there. Don't worry, though, the IG experience can still be very rewarding even if you don't "win." Here are a few simple concepts to once you've decide to play along.
Your followers are waiting – Help them find you!
Unlike many other platforms, the likelihood of IGers (Instagrammers) randomly coming across your feed is rather low. You gotta make your presence known, but have no fear, this is the easiest part of the game. There are 3 effective ways to let others know you've arrived and start getting more Instagram Followers! As with most endeavors, the more you put in the more you get out.
Likes, Comments, and Following
No, this probably isn't earth shattering advice. Yet I still see people with double digit followers wondering why no one follows them… it's because nobody knows you are on instagram. Following like minded folks is generally the most responsive, but it's also the most draining because you won't enjoy your feed as much when you realize 7500 is too many to keep up with. If you want 5 digit followers, commit 1hr a day to liking over 1000 posts from similar "styled" accounts. Commenting is recommended when you really want to get someone's attention.
Paticipate in contest/use hashtags
You may not want to use a max 30 tags each and every post; but you do want to use targeted tags to not only post to, but to also engage with. Big brands, like Verizon, Ben & Jerry's, Heineken, etc often run contests. That means a number of folks will be rifling through entries. People in your area are often reciprocal and supportive as well, so don't forget to represent your hometown
Shoutouts aren't entirely evil
I wouldn't recommend participating in too many page "shares", but a few a week or one each day won't drive away your fans. Stay on the lookout for users that have a relatively high amount of activity to their amount of followers and ask them if they'd be interested in sharing each other's pages for more exposure. It's an effective way to add another 25-100 followers in a short amount of time. It will be tempting to do it more often, however, you'll end up burning and turning followers.. which is frustrating when you gain 21 but lose 27.
This is your forum
Ultimately, to make this most awesome Instagram Community on the planet, we need to hear from you. What are you eager to learn more about? What are you struggling, or having success, with? I have some interviews lined up with other popular users to share some best practices.
There are no comments yet, add one below.

Vamsam' is the film directed by 'Pasanga' Pandiraj and also a launch pad of Chief Minister's grandson Arul Nidhi.
News was making rounds that the film 'Vamsam' stars 'Asin' in a prominent role.
Well it has nothing to do with actress Asin, but it is the name of a cow which plays an important role in 'Vamsam'has been named after the actress.
According to sources, the cow, which belongs to Pudukkottai, is playing the role of heroine Sunaina's 'close friend'. "It acts as a messenger between the lead pair Arulnidhi and Sunaina," they maintain.
Explaining why director of the film Pandiraj decided to name the cow as Asin, "I have no intention of hurting anybody. Asin is one of the most popular actresses in Tamil cinema, so for recall value and fun we named the cow Asin, which acts as a sort of love messenger between the hero and heroine. It is wholly for the purpose of evoking laughter in cinema halls screening 'Vamsam'"
On the role played by CM's grandson Arulnidhi, sources say, "He appears as a graduate who settles in the village to take care of his family job- agriculture. Arulnidhi has given his best to 'Vamsam' which will hit screens soon."

Apple have up until now produced some of the most desirable technology mankind has ever conceived. The iPod's rise to stardom was both rapid and unending, stomping on the likes of Sonys Walkman in the process.
Apple enjoys the status of a company almost beyond reproach; it has die hard fans, loyal to the last minute, some of whom willingly queue in the cold and rain just so they can be the first to handle the new iDevice.
Up until now, with each and every technological advancement Apple made, and with each new iDevice developed and marketed came the need to provide a simple charge and syncronisation method, an item we call an iPod Dock.
The Apple Universal Dock
OK, we're calling it an iPod Docking Station but in all truth that is an inaccurate name, Steve Jobs, the Apple CEO & Founder calls it an Apple Universal Dock. This dock does not ONLY fit the iPod range, it also fits the iPhone via the use of interchangeable "Dock Adapters".
The Apple Universal Dock is compatible with any Apple Device with a Dock Connector, for Example;iPod Nano – 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th Generations
iPod – All Generations iPod Classic – All Generations
iPod Photo iPod Video – All Models iPod Touch iPhone 3G iPhone 3GS iPhone 4 iPhone 5
The Apple Universal Dock really does cover them all, and of course, unlike some aftermarket docks, you know your iPod or iPhone is going to fit and work as Apple intended.
One thing's for sure, this is a really nice looking dock, understated like most Apple products, designed with not only functionality in mind, but also aesthetic appeal. Contemporary yet elegant. Even the Apple Remote Control, an optional extra, looks as though it's been through the Apple design engine a number of times.
The Apple Universal Dock
The Apple Universal Dock is easy to use, it really is Plug and Play. Connect it to either your iMac or PC for the ability to Both Charge and Synchronise your iPod or iPhone, or plug it into your AC Adapter, for Rapid Charging via the Mains.
In the Box you will find the Apple universal Dock, 5 Dock Adapters & a User Manual.
In Conclusion, the Apple Universal Dock, whilst not the cheapest Ipod Docking Station available, it is certainly one of the best. Capable of suiting practically every iPod and iPhone ever produced, coupled with Apples legendary build quality, make this THE Best iPod Dock Station to Own.

Tuesday, following news of an FBI bust that uncovered a major Medicaid fraud ring using counterfeit drugs, Congressman Steve Israel (D-Huntington) renewed his call for protections against counterfeit drugs. Steve Israel has taken the lead on this issues since he heard from the family of a constituent whose son was the victim of counterfeit drugs he purchased at a major pharmacy on Long Island.
Israel said, "For nearly 25 years now the FDA has postponed the requirement that prescription drugs sales provide a pedigree. Two decades on, technological advances have provided answers to the concerns raised about that requirement, but the need for such pedigrees persists. If Fed Ex can track a letter around the world, AIDS patients should not have to wonder if their life-saving drugs came from the trunk of someone's car."
Rep. Israel has been leading the charge on counterfeit drugs for the past decade after one of the Congressman's constituents, Tim Fagan, received counterfeit medication in place of the prescription he needed following a liver transplant. The injections he received only had a small amount of the medicine he actually required and wreaked havoc on Tim's health.
Israel's efforts are documented as part of the book Dangerous Doses by Katherine Eban. That book described the shady "gray market" in which prescription drugs are often sold between legitimate wholesalers and less scrupulous drug speculators before being sold back to pharmacies and finally consumers.
The Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1988 required drug sales to have a "paper pedigree" to show the transfer history of a particular batch of drugs. The FDA put a stay on this provision and has not implemented it in response to industry concerns about implementation. Technology has advanced since that time to the point where many vendors have offered ways to track the drugs between sellers all the way to the neighborhood pharmacy.

Good control rubber, but still too slow. I think it is ideal for backhand if boosted.
I played this rubber on my backhand when I was just starting out. I am pretty sure this rubber is meant to be boosted, but those days are gone now. It has good control, but is just much too slow without any additional tuning. If you aren't planning to tune this rubber yourself, just get a modern tensor rubber (tenergy, omega, acuda, mx, etc.) It is still a good rubber for beginners, but if you are going to invest in a new setup for yourself, you might as well get something better.
One of the best my backhand rubber in speed glue era... U can improve your strokes with this rubber... LEGEND rubber...
Great all around rubber. Perfect for an all around control game or beginner. To me it seems slightly slower than regular Sriver but with a bit more spin and bite to it.
Overall very happy with this rubber. I chose the 1.9mm, which I've been using for 2 mos. as my only rubber on my 1st jpen paddle. It's a definite improvement over the rubber on my old premade Stiga paddle--great spin and lots of control for a beginner. My only complaint is the rubber seems fragile/easier to damage than I had expected. Otherwise very happy with it.
After many good review for the legendary sriver, have to get my self one just to test how good it is. This rubber have above average spin. It is not a tensor rubber thus you need to generate all the speed and spin your self. As it is not too fast, you can generate shot with lot of spin. The ball will kick when it land to the other side of the table. Great for serve and serve receiving.
this was my first rubber i ever tried and its great for starting players who like to have a lot of control but still be able to spin

My first birth could not have gone better. I hoped for adrug-free active birth and it is what I got. It was an amazing experienceoverall and wouldn't change a thing. So once I fell pregnant with our secondchild I had every intention of doing this again (if possible) I re-read all myactive birth material and with experience in hand this time, I felt empoweredand relaxed.
My second pregnancy went very smoothly. I showed very earlyon and put on to much weight. (with thanks to my potato gem and frozen cokecravings!) Because of my size I always had my suspicions bub would come early.I got given 3 due dates. 4/3/12 (based on LMP) 10/3/12 (based on 9 week scan)and 13/3/12 (based on 18 week scan) I knew that the most accurate EDD wasdetermined by the earliest scan. So in my mind, the 10th was thewinner. At our 18 week scan we discovered we were having a baby girl which wasextremely unexpected considering my DF's family is riddled with boys. Wealready have a son and we only ever wanted 2 children so too discover we werehaving a girl was AMAZING. I was over the moon!From around 34 weeks I had a lotof pre-labour symptoms. I was all the more convinced I was going to go early.But alas, this wasn't too be. The 4thof March passed without any labour.
March 6thI work up at 2am and noticed my plug was coming away. I immediately got thatmixed feeling of excitement and fear. With my first child, once I saw my plugcoming away my labour began immediately so I was convinced this was it. Istarted getting contractions every 10mins. Nothing I couldn't handle. Mildperiod like pain but with a distinctive wave pattern. At 5am I was still havingthe contractions every 10 mins. I was due to have a midwife appointment thatday and rang in advance to let them know my labour had started. They stillwanted me to come in anyway. I arrived at the hospital at 9am and, mycontractions completely vanished. Had the midwife appointment-she said bub was definatlyengaged and ready to go, it was just a matter of time. She also mentioned thatbub was still in posterior position (had been since 30 weeks) For the next 3 days I had contractions on andoff. Id go hours without any at all and then hours of patterned contractions.At one point I had them 3-4mins apart! But again, they didn't amount to anything.The only thing I was thankful for was that I was able to sleep at night. Icontinued to lose my plug over this time.
Friday morning I woke up at 8am. I was lazing around in bedwhilst my DF got DS his breakfast when suddenly I felt a weird popping sensation.Nothing overly aggressive and pretty deep in side but definatly a pop. I stoodup and went to the toilet and I had a definite trickle. Contractions begunagain. I didn't bother calling the hospital as I knew because I didn't havecontractions close together yet and my water was running clear not green sothey wouldn't look at me yet anyway. The contractions were all over the place.Everytime I had a contraction I would leak. The contractions were stillirregular but started getting a sting to them. My dad picked up DS and mum (whowas my other support person) came over ready for blast off. Around 10am theystarted slowing again and I was getting quite deflated. 3 days of this and mypatience was starting to get awfully thin!! At 1pm there was no change and Idecided to call the midwives and tell them I was fairly confident my water hadbroken and I knew the risk of infection was getting higher. Midwife told me to comein immediately so they could confirm my water had broken. Arrived at hospitalhalf an hour later and sure enough, contractions stopped completely again.AHHHHH!! They did however confirm that my water had broken and decided toinduce me at 8am the next morning if I didn't progress. I wanted to avoid thisat all costs-especially if I was in for a posterior birth! They also did bloodsthat we had to wait 2hours for. All was fine. I did however get a killermigrane! Luckily I was at the right place so they gave me some panadeinefor that JI was told to go home and see how I went overnight. We arrived back home at 5pmwhere I waved Mum off and told her I would call her if anything happened butdefinatly meet her back at the hospital at 8am. I hadn't even made it up thefront steps to our house before my contractions began again. Typical! Hehe.Inside I went not getting to excited about these contractions. From this momenton my contractions came no less then every 10mins. Every contraction startinghurting that little bit more. DF got the contraction counter out for me. Every 7mins then 8. Then 9. Then 6. Then 9. Then 4. Allwithin 10mins but still not regular. They were hurting enough that I started using my active birthtechnique. Walking, showers, squattingand fit ball. Being that she was laying posterior they stung so much more thenmy previous labour. I was constantly flapping my hands throughcontractions-like you do when you get an insect bite. I remember 'the devilwears prada' was on Tv that night. I attempted laying down and watching it-ha!Didn't happen I couldn't stay still. I had about 6 showers that night. Yellingout when a contraction would start and stop to my DF so he could time them. Itis not 10pm and every contraction has me frozen in pain. I was SOOO tired. Ikept walking around and doing my best to stick to the techniques I knew but itwas getting pretty hard to focus. I now knew why they warned me a posteriorlabour was more painful. They weren't wrong! I decided to try and lay down inbed and see if I could get some sleep. I laid there watching a dvd fightingthrough these contractions. 11pm I had this overwhelming feeling to get to thehospital. Contractions still coming irregularly within that 10min time framebut I didn't care. I was getting out of this house. Called the midwifes andknowing they were going to be inducing me in the morning anyway said I couldcome in. Made it to the hospital, into the birthing suite where I was told mymidwife was on her way. Mum arrived not long after us. It was around 11pm. Oncein the hospital contractions were coming every 5mins. Didn't take me long toget in the shower. In both labours the shower was my godsend. I swear by it. DFused to hose to rotate the warm water front to back. My midwife arrived andapart from checking on bubs heartbeat every now and then left us mainly to ourown devices. (which is how I wanted it) Contractions hurt, contractions werecoming every 3 mins. I didn't leave the shower really at all. Around 2am I wasin the shower and felt the urge to squat. I also felt a slight urge to push. MyDF let the midwife know and she said to just keep breathing through it. Within10mins the urge became quite strong and I started to moan. My midwife offered andinternal which I accepted. I was 7cm's and in her words "nowhere near ready topush". She explained because bub wasposterior I was feeling a lot more pressure then normal and that I was justgoing to have to breathe through the urges. Now, every woman who has ever givenbirth knows how impossible it is to ignore these urges to push. Contractionsfelt like they were never ending now and the pain was indescribable. Within10mins of the internal my body started involuntarily pushing. I started topanic. I didn't want to hurt my baby by pushing when I wasn't supposed to butat the same time I could NOT stop it. I had an extremely long labour with myfirst and pushed for 2 hours. In saying that, the pain was so much more intensethen with my DS and the idea of only being 7cms, this pain going on for hoursand being told I wasn't allowed to push I felt completely out of control. Iasked for another internal. Still only 7cm's. I started crying. I startingfreaking out. Contractions felt like they had no start or finish I was bearingdown unbelievably. My body was pushing so violently and forcefully. My midwifesuggested I hop up on the bed and hold onto the top of the bed in squatting position. I stayed this way forhalf an hour or more. Midwife was trying to coach me to breathe through theurge to push. In all honesty. I blocked her out. I had my mum on one side of meand my DF on the other. I kept screaming out " can I push yet?!!!!!!!!!!!" I then decided I couldn't do it. I asked for an epidural. The midwifeoffered gas and/or pethidine which I declined. I wanted an epidural. I heard mymidwife utter the words "transition" to my mum and my midwife left the room andcame back with another nurse. Im pushing now. I don't care what they say. It isinhumane for me too ignore this urge. Im pushing because my body simply is. It's3am and I hear the midwives chatting in the corner. At the same time I feelsomething wet fall out. I had a MASSIVE bloody show. As soon as the midwivessaw this they gave me the go ahead to push. This was all I needed to hear. Istarted pushing with intent. Still in this upright position on the bed. Im moaningand moaning as that primal instinct consumed me. Within 10mins of pushing I canfeel bub moving down through my pelvis. The midwives are telling me they cansee glimpses of bubs head. DP is offering me water and mum is wiping myforehead with a washer. They are talking to me. I can't hear them. I am totallyfocused and at one with my body. Even though I can feel bub sliding back upafter every contraction I can also feel the progress she is making. The midwivessuggest I change position. They lay me on my side and my mum held my leg up asI pushed. Almost immediately I felt the ring of fire. She was turning as shecrowned. She wasn't face up or face down but somewhat sideways. I kept my eyesshut through the whole process and concentrated only on pushing. With one finalpush Chelsea Jane entered the world at 3:34am on the 10th of March.My beautiful 9pound posterior baby. Shewent straight to the breast and suckled and had the most hair I have ever seenon a newborn! Chelsea was perfect and healthy in everyway.
As I was holding my new bundle the midwives started to rusharound as I was bleeding quite significantly. I still hadn't delivered myplacenta despite being given the injection. I felt the urge to push again and deliveredpart of the placenta. It was raggered. Whilst I am gazing at my sweetheart themidwives are impatiently waiting for the rest to arrive. Two more midwives anda doctor entered the room. One of the midwives walked up to me very calmly,gave me a smile and introduced herself. She explained she was going to have afeel of my tummy then "bang!" she pushed down so heavily on my stomach that Ifelt winded and at the same time I felt a massive gush come out of me. I hadclots and blood and the rest of the placenta come out of me a shoot across theroom! The midwives all gasped in shock! I was hooked up to a drip and has a catheterinserted due to the heavy blood loss. Doctor gave me the all clear and I wasleft to gaze at my daughter. We went home the following evening.
Like my first birth I was successful in a drug-free naturalbirth with no tearing at all. This was my dream come true. Chelsea is justperfect. Along with our gorgeous DS our family is now complete.

Ernie Kovacs: Between the Laughter Trailer (1984)
This is a splendid little sleeper of a movie. Ernie Kovacs was one of the giants of early television. I think he would be pleased with the way Jeff Goldbloom captures his wonky personality. Melody Anderson also distills that of Edie Adams. There is a very basic heart tugging story about the search for Kovacs' two abducted daughters. But at the same time the film is funny --- Cloris Leachman is a hoot as Kovacs impossible mom --- and has many of the offbeat and innovative qualities of the old Kovacs show itself.

Kila Jisi
Heavy Security
The match Yosa- Canon in which Yosa snatched the trophy beating Canon of Yaounde 4-1 was played in front of Paul Biya and under tight security. There were three controls, two at the entrance of the stadium and one at the presidential tribune. Bags were search to make sure some persons did not carry weapons.
The presidential guard who sleep a day to the match in the stadium were posted at every corner of the stadium. Before President Biya arrived the guards with dogs sniffed the stadium for any harmful substances.
Soldier Fell In The Stadium
After the singing of the national anthem and President Biya reviewed the troops, a soldier fell in the stadium and it was not clear why he fel. We only saw a soldier lying on the ground and the health personnel ran to his rescue. But after a few minutes he was seen being taken off the field by the personnel of the fire brigade services.
Supporter's Box Searched
A supporter who got a badge meant for the press sat close to journalists and was so agitated, sitting, standing moving to one corner and back. His agitation attracted the presidential guards, one who was on the touch line came up to this supporter. He asked him to open the yellow plastic bag he had. After the plastic bag, he was told to open the cartoon. This turned out to be his box and this is where he carried his clothes. Many watched in amusement as they could not image what was in the box before the incident.
Students Ferried To The stadium
Students from some schools in Yaounde were transported to cheer the players in the stadium and to fill the empty stadium. Some persons were given free tickets to entice them to the stadium. The Cup of Cameroon finals and local championship games have lost their steam. Fans and supporters have deserted the stadium.
Choreographic Display
The Cup of Cameroon Finals is an avenue to display Cameroon's unity in diversity and this is always captured in the choreographic display. Organised by the Director of the National Institute of Youth and Sports, Daniel Ngwa Nguelle, this choreographic display is a cultural jamboree involving school children. The finals is an opportunity for other sporting clubs to also march and their presidents shake hands with President Biya.

Vijay Mallya free to return to India, ED tells Delhi court
Latest News »
New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate informed a Delhi district court on Tuesday that UB Group chairman Vijay Mallya is free to return to India.
"Mallya's revoked passport is no bar to return to India. Indian Embassy can issue emergency travel documents to him," ED told the court in a case seeking cancellation of exemption granted to Mallya from personally appearing before the authorities.
Chief metropolitan magistrate Sumit Dass had asked Mallya to personally appear in court in connection with a case related to Foreign Exchange Regulation Act investigated by the ED.
Mallya allegedly made payments of over $2 million to a British firm for displaying the Kingfisher logo in Formula One World Championships. This case will be heard next on 4 November.
Mallya took a stand that he intends to return to India but authorities have revoked his passport.
