Plus: Raines Remains Silent, Day 6!
Does this mean what it logically seems to mean -- that Reich would deny food stamps to people who don't work? After all, the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is only available to people who earn a certain amount of money every year -- indeed, one reason it's so popular is that it only goes to workers. Meanwhile, the major "complicated categorical programs" for "low-income people" are food stamps and Medicaid. Right now, despite various attempts by Congress to impose a work requirement on food stamps, both are in practice widely available to people with low incomes -- especially to mothers with young children -- even if they don't earn anything. Applying the EITC's rules to these programs would presumably mean applying the EITC's "work test" -- something that makes sense to many conservative Republicans, and to me, for food stamps, though the Democrats' left vehemently opposes it. Great idea!
I'm sure Reich, confronted by objections from the left, would say that's not what he meant at all. But what does he mean then? Does he actually, contrary to what his language suggests, want to make the EITC more like food stamps by eliminating the EITC's earnings requirement - turning it into a welfare program? That wouldn't "expand" the EITC -- it would destroy it. (Reich could change the name to Unearned Income Tax Credit.) Or did Reich give this paragraph as much careful thought as I think he gave it?
You don't like his quick-baked ideas as much as I do? Wait a week. He'll have more! ... 1:09 A.M.

Did you know David Frum had a blog? It's as excellent as you'd expect (i.e. it's excellent). ... 9:35 P.M.
Blogger David Weigel's assessment of Gore campaign flack Chris Lehane seems sound, especially the "jerk" part. ...What's worse, the other Gore spokesperson quoted in WaPo's Reliable Source seems to feel that Lehane's high-schoolish sneering ("Bush should like the Gore picture book -- with all the photos, it is right up his alley") is brilliant. These guys think this is the way the game should be played! ... To be sure, it's impossible to say if Gore would have won if he'd had a more adult, sophisticated McCurryesque press secretary, and not Lehane. ... Actually, I take that back. Of course Gore would have won if he'd had a better press secretary than Lehane. He lost (if at all) by a few dozen votes. That means every mistake he made cost him the election. ... It's doubly revealing that at this late stage, after a mid-term drubbing, the Gore people think it's smart to ridicule Bush as stupid. ... 2:46 A.M.
What? Was Robert McNamara Busy? Henry Kissinger? The head of the 9/11 inquiry needs to be trustworthy and credible, so his or her report isn't suspected of being a whitewash. Kissinger may be many things, but trustworthy and credible aren't the virtues that leap immediately to mind. This is a man whose recent op-ed on the Iraq war was such a jumble of hidden agendas and Machiavellian bargains that nobody could figure out if he was dissenting from from the Administration's policy or supporting it. .... Even if Bush wanted a whitewash, he could've picked a better whitewasher than Kissinger -- at least if Bush wanted a whitewash that's actually believed. ... McNamara might have been a better choice! He's repeatedly been arrogant and wrong, with calamitous consequences for the nation and the world. But he's at least (compared with Kissinger) been transparently and straightforwardly arrogant and wrong. ...P.S.: Christopher Hitchens makes a somewhat more detailed case against Bush's pick. ... 1:54 A.M.
John Gorman of the Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll supports Tapped's point that Bush's "reelect number" is surprisingly -- maybe even shockingly -- low, given his high job approval ratings. ... In Fox's poll, only 44 percent said they'd vote for Bush "if the 2004 presidential election were held today." That's not the aberrantly low 32 percent figure Tapped gleaned from an eccentric NYT/CBS poll question -- but it's still under 50 percent, and Tapped is right that it should give Democratic candidates hope. I withdraw the charge that Tapped was simply "cocooning." ... 12:17 A.M.
Wednesday, November 27, 2002 The New Yorker claims it's now making a profit. The N. Y. Post's estimable Keith Kelly notes the industry skeptics who doubt that so much ground could have been made up so quickly in the middle of an economic downturn. (The magazine "as recently as 2000 was losing over $11 million," Kelly reports.) ... Now, maybe the skeptics are wrong. Maybe Wall Street is so locked into the "Kausfiles profitable, New Yorker unprofitable"mindset that it's missing a paradigm shift here. But put me down as a skeptic. ... Why? Pick up the December 2 issue. Weigh it in your hand. It's a few weeks before Christmas -- if the magazine's really raking it in, this issue should be fat with ads. At 120 pages, it's not thin. But it's not fat either. ... So who are you going to believe -- Conde Nast's Steven Florio, or your own eyes? That one's easy. (Click here, and search for "exaggerating.") ...3:44 A.M.
Hate Me, Please! My hate e-mail has all but disappeared, which is vaguely disconcerting. For the past two years (ever since the Florida recount) I've gotten at least two, sometimes 200, abusive missives a day -- until about three months ago, when the stream of vitriol seemed to dry up. Other bloggers still complain to me that they're oppressed by offensive correspondence. I join in the griping, not daring to tell them the truth. ... Does the link at the bottom of the page not work anymore? (No, it does.) Is nobody reading kf? (No, the stats look healthy.) Has the Web suddenly become more civil? Were all the nasty e-mails orchestrated by obscure talk shows and sites like Media Whores Online -- so that if you're not on their radar, you don't get flamed? I'm at a loss. ...Update: Now, that's more like it! Thanks to all the kf readers who came through with vicious calumny and opprobrium. You hate me. You really hate me! Have a good Thanksgiving! .. 3:03 A.M.
Tuesday, November 26, 2002 Adam ("Six Feet Under") Nagourney buries the ledeagain. Drudgeunburies it. ("CBSNYT POLL: GORE HOLDS 19% FAVORABLE RATE...") ... Update:Tapped claimsNagourney buried an anti-Bush lede, namely the news that what Tapped calls Bush's "re-elect rating" is only 32 percent. (Click on "Complete Results" on Nagourney's poll-story page and scroll down to Question 15.) ... Maybe Tapped is right, and Nagourney buried two ledes! Bush's "reelect" rating has been surprisingly and ominously (for him) low before. But the question cited by Tapped is not the classic "If the election were held today..." query that yields the traditional "reelect number." It was a looser inquiry -- about who respondents would "probably vote" for in the future -- and it produced a gigantic (47 percent) "don't know" response. ... And Tapped doesn't mention that the Democratic "rating" on Question 15 was even lower than Bush's -- 18 percent. ... A recent Gallup poll that did ask the traditional question found Bush's rating (as of around 11/9) at a not-unhealthy 55 percent. (Anything less than 50 percent on the standard "reelect" question is considered a sign of trouble. Clinton's reelect number, at this point in his presidency, was in the low 40s, though that obviously didn't stop him from getting reelected.) ... Tapped seems to be counting on its readers confusing the NYT's Question 15 number with the traditional "reelect number." Isn't it a bit early after a jarring Dem defeat for Tapped to be reweaving the Democratic cocoon, looking desperately for positive news that isn't really there? ... 1:29 P.M.

Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) can be defined as a lack of thyroid hormones present from birth which, unless detected and treated early, is associated with irreversible neurological problems and poor growth.
Some infants may develop a lack of thyroid hormones after birth and this may represent primary hypothyroidism rather than CH. Children with primary hypothyroidism do not experience the irreversible neurological problems that are seen with untreated CH.
- In the UK 1 in 4,000 live births have congenital hypothyroidism (CH).
- The incidence is twice as common in females.[1]
- Areas with iodine deficiency associated with endemic cretinism are Bangladesh, China, Peru and Zaire. This has in part been counteracted by compulsory iodination of salt.
- Italian screening for CH suggests it is more prevalent in multiple pregnancies - the cause of which remains unclear.[2]
- Anatomical defects:
- Accounts for 75% of all cases.
- There may be thyroid aplasia, hypoplasia or ectopic thyroid tissue.
- It is not inherited, so that chances of another sibling being affected are low.
- Disorders of thyroid hormone metabolism:
- This accounts for 10% of cases.[3]
- Examples include TSH unresponsiveness and defects in thyroglobulin.
- This is usually inherited and so there is a risk that further children may also be affected.
- Hypothalamic or pituitary dysfunction.
- Hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction accounts for 5% of cases of congenital hypothyroidism (CH). Pituitary hypothyroidism usually occurs with other disorders of pituitary dysfunction, eg lack of growth hormone.
- Hypothalamic causes include tumours, ischaemic damage or congenital defects.
- Transient hypothyroidism
- This accounts for 10% of cases and is usually related to either maternal medications, eg carbimazole, or to maternal antibodies. In maternal thyroid disease, IgG auto-antibodies can cross the placenta and block thyroid function in utero; this improves after delivery.
- A number of genetic defects have been associated with CH. This includes mutations in the 'paired box gene 8' (PAX8) and the 'dual oxidase 2 gene' (DUOX2). The PAX8 gene is involved in the development of various tissues in the embryo. PAX8 is particularly linked to the formation of the kidney and thyroid gland. Several mutations of PAX8 are described with varying degrees of thyroid dysfunction.[1] The DUOX2 gene encodes an enzyme called dual oxidase 2 which generates hydrogen peroxide in the thyroid gland, gastrointestinal tract and the lungs. Dual oxidase 2 is crucial to the production of thyroid hormones.[1]
Infants are usually clinically normal at birth due to the presence of maternal thyroid hormones.
- Feeding difficulties
- Somnolence
- Lethargy
- Low frequency of crying
- Constipation
- Large fontanelles
- Myxoedema - with coarse features and a large head and oedema of the genitalia and extremities.
- Nasal obstruction.
- Macroglossia.
- Low temperature (often <35°C) with cold and mottled skin on the extremities.
- Jaundice - prolongation of the physiological jaundice.
- Umbilical hernia.
- Hypotonia.
- Hoarse voice.
- Cardiomegaly.
- Bradycardia.
- Pericardial effusion - usually asymptomatic.
- Failure of fusion of distal femoral epiphyses.
- The growing child will have short stature, hypertelorism, depressed bridge of nose, narrow palpebral fissures and swollen eyelids.
- Refractory anaemia.
- A goitre may be present (more likely with dyshormonogenesis, thyroid hormone resistance and transient hypothyroidism).
5% of patients will also have other congenital defects, eg atrial septal defects or ventricular septal defects.
Infants not treated early may have delayed mental development, learning difficulties and poor co-ordination.
- All babies are screened at birth (with their mothers' consent), using blood taken via a pinprick and analysed for TSH and T4. This is part of the UK Newborn Screening Programme (the blood is also analysed for phenylketonuria, cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease).[4][5]
- A high TSH and low T4 confirm the diagnosis.[6]
- Infants may need to go on to have thyroid ultrasound scanning and/or thyroid radionuclide scanning.
- Thyroid auto-antibodies are also measured.
- False-positive results are usually due to intercurrent illness and thyroglobulin deficiency.[7]
- Thyroglobulin levels can also be measured - usually total T4 is low with a normal TSH, but free T4 and T3 are within the normal range. This would require no further treatment.
- 20% of infants may only have a slight increase in TSH - these patients need to be observed and TFTs repeated in a few months.
- The aim of treatment is early detection and early thyroid hormone replacement to ensure that infants do not develop irreversible neurological disability.
- Thyroxine hormone replacement with L-thyroxine is given once daily and titrated to TFTs.[8] There is no evidence at present to suggest that higher starting doses of thyroxine have more beneficial effect on outcome compared with standard doses.[9]
- TFTs need to be monitored on a regular basis. The frequency of blood tests can be reduced after the first 2 years of life once adequate replacement is achieved.
- T4 should ideally be kept in the upper half of the normal range.
- Transient hypothyroidism need not be treated unless the low T4 and raised TSH persist beyond 2 weeks. Treatment is usually terminated after 3 to 5 months.[10]
- Regular monitoring of TFTs.
- Cross-sectional reference growth charts should be used to monitor child growth.
- Monitor achievement of childhood milestones.
- Monitor mental development - four areas need to be reviewed: communication and personality behaviour, language ability, motor ability and adaptive behaviour.[10]
Adverse sequelae
The main adverse effects are related to the lack of adequate thyroid hormone replacement leading to hypothyroidism, or excessive thyroid hormone replacement leading to hyperthyroidism.
Hyperthyroidism in infants is exhibited by tachycardia, anxiety and a disturbed sleep pattern.
If congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is detected early in infants and treatment begun, normal development of mental function can occur.[11] If treatment is delayed, spasticity, gait problems and dysarthria and profound mental disability may result.
Poor self-esteem and depression are amongst several factors that lead to a poorer quality of life in patients who have been treated for CH.[12] A high index of suspicion with careful questioning is required to pick up on these aspects.
Acquired hypothyroidism
- The most common cause is lymphocytic thyroiditis. Other causes may be iatrogenic.
- Typically seen in adolescence, but can occur earlier.
- First signs are slowing of growth (often unrecognised) with other typical signs of hypothyroidism, eg skin changes, cold intolerance, sleepiness and low energy.
- Typically, delayed puberty in adolescence, but younger children may have galactorrhoea or precocious puberty.
Lymphocytic thyroiditis
- Lymphocytic thyroiditis is also known as Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroiditis.
- It is 4-7 times more common in girls than in boys.
- There is a high incidence in children with Turner's syndrome and Down's syndrome.
Other rarer causes include acute suppurative thyroiditis and subacute non-suppurative thyroiditis (de Quervain's disease).

"This is a redesign project for Stauffer's Animal Crackers. It has fun, attractive colors that work together and individually. The packaging resembles a circus ticket and utilizes elements from vintage circus posters such as an assortment of type, illustrated hands, and decorative ornaments. I wanted to promote Stauffer's various flavors by giving each a different illustrated mascot. Designs for on-the-go cups are included for each package, as well."
I am seeking a position that allows me to contribute high-quality creative thinking and further develop my awareness and design aesthetic within a strong team environment. I am also open to interesting and creative freelance projects. I am looking forward to going to new places and increasing my experiences.

Our new infographic dramatically shows the disconcerting enforcement trends facing employers throughout the US. Over the last several years, US government agencies have significantly stepped up enforcement efforts against employers from all angles, costing employers millions. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the Department of Labor (DOL) and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have been very candid about their promises to execute their enforcement strategies targeting noncompliant employers and they are making good on their promises.
In 2012, a whopping 99,412 charges were filed with the EEOC and more than $365 million was recovered against private employers. Furthermore, in 2011, the DOL increased its wage and hour investigators by 40% and collected $224 million in back wages. In the last five years, there has been an incredible 600% increase in Form I-9 audits by ICE. And last year, ICE sought $12.48 million in administrative fines for illegal employment practices. Further, ICE worksite investigations resulted in the arrests of 240 managers, supervisors and HR employees harboring or knowingly hiring illegal aliens.
Employers need to be especially proactive given this active enforcement environment, to ensure that their employment practices are not on the government's radar. No industry is immune from government enforcement activities. For instance:
HR can minimize exposure to such enforcement efforts by implementing policies prohibiting discrimination of any kind based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, age, disability or genetic information. They should also ensure that they are properly classifying employees under the FLSA. Lastly, HR must verify the identity of all new employees and establish that new hires are authorized to work in the US.

Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr's first solo album opens with the droning, midtempo psychedelia of "Last Ride," and the album doesn't stray far from this vein--pleasant, electronic-tinged classic rock, unsurprising and delivered with dexterity. The gratifying shock is Marr's voice, which is workmanlike in the best possible sense, alternately streetwise and wistful. In "Caught Up," the music's infectious, fuzzy, druggy jangle descends into a minor-chord chorus, both echoing and immediate, and the graceful "Something to Shout About," punctuated by a haunting melodica solo, is reflective and poignant.
Unfortunately, Marr spends a lot of time here (too much, really) singing about an undefined "it"; as in Need "It," Feel "It," Show "It." Comparisons are unfair but inevitable--the hyper-literate Morrissey would have told his listeners precisely what "it" was and perhaps how "it" had made him feel. The vague and non-topical lyrics are the album's Achilles heel, reaching their nadir in "Need It" with the ultimate throwaway line, "Whatever if you know what I mean." (No, not really, Johnny.) With a thimbleful more effort and enthusiasm, this could have been a stunning debut rather than a passable one.

The Top 5
We scan the blogs, online news sources and digital magazines (so you don't have to) and gather our five must-read picks. |
1. | 3 Stages of a Company's Social Integration http://mashable.com/2012/09/17/social-media-marketing-pr/ Exactly where social media lives within a company depends largely on what goals have been set for social media. And these objectives are in turn usually a function of how far along a business is on the adoption curve. The argument about marketing or PR "owning" social media is shortsighted. It's more important to identify future objectives and develop a culture of social thinking inside the organization. |
2. | Is Email the Perfect Content Delivery Tool? http://www.dmnews.com/is-email-the-perfect-content-delivery-tool/article/258353/ Over the past couple of years, we've beaten email with the ugly stick. The blame rests with faceless botnets, best practices ignoring batch and blasters, and the ever-innovative marketers proselytizing the death of email and the rise of social media. Collectively, these misanthropes made it easy ignore, or doubt, email's place in the well-rounded marketing mix. |
3. | Bare Minimum SEO: 3 Things You Must Do http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2205803/Bare-Minimum-SEO-3-Things-You-Must-Do If you could do only three things for SEO, what would they be? This is a question encountered by many smaller businesses, and even somewhat larger companies, either due to not having enough people (time) and/or dollars available to invest in a big way. |
4. | The 5 Steps to Great Social Content http://www.prdaily.com/Main/Articles/12668.aspx The greatest mystery of social media marketing lies in the following question: How do you create truly great content? Obviously, there's no simple answer, but that doesn't stop several of us from trying. That includes marketing communications firm Lindon East, which produced a handy infographic that gives five steps to creating great social content. |
5. | The 50 Most Creative Brand Pages on Facebook http://www.simplyzesty.com/facebook/40-creative-brands-on-facebook/ With so many brands out there on Facebook, everyone has a different way of using the medium. Some do it brilliantly while others not so much. There are many ways to make your page memorable and engaging for users so to help illustrate the point, here are the best examples of brand pages on the site. |

I just changed the battery, (not sure if this has anything to do with the problem) When I am driving down the road and take a left turn the door ajar warning light comes on, and I get a single beep. None of my doors are open and all of the fuses have been checked. None of the door sensors seem to broken, they all push in and out easily. The trunk sensor also seems to be working. This has been going on for a few weeks.

I think you might be confusing patent and trademark.
This is sorta like Apples and Oranges, but...
You mean Apples and Windows, right?
The best 99 you will ever spend:
While I certainly agree that kids at (for example) a birthday party do not need sugar to become hyperactive, there are other studies, and they tend to correlate well with what we know of metabolism and how sugar is metabolized:
Other studies show that since sugar is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, blood sugar rises quickly, which can lead to higher adrenaline levels and thus symptoms similar to those associated with hyperactivity.
A study like this carries a lot more weight as it isolates the ingestion of sugar and objectively measures it's biological impact on the children, as opposed to other studies that do not isolate the various stimuli and only measure the results subjectively.
I have 3 kids under the age of 6 and I call a total bullshit!
There are many recent studies that try to dismiss a correlation between sugar and hyperactivity and most of them appear to be pretty flawed. One study states that the parents of the children in the study did indeed report that sugar correlated to hyper-activity, but dismissed that in favour of "clinical" reports--so in their normal environment kids become hyper after eating sugar, but when you put them in a lab they don't. Perhaps the change of environment has an impact on this? This study also compared sucrose, aspartame, and saccharin based on THE ASSUMPTION that aspartame and saccharin do not cause hyperactivity. But few if any of these studies administered the test dose on an empty stomach and monitored the biochemical response.
Other studies show that since sugar is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, blood sugar rises quickly, which can lead to higher adrenaline levels and thus symptoms similar to those associated with hyperactivity. This fits much better with what we understand about metabolism and is not based on any assumptions or other external effects, such as change in environment.
a notice claiming that subscribers could face up to $20,000 in damages
Considering the law now features a cap of $5,000 for non-commercial statutory damages would this not count as extortion?
That's pretty cool! I had no idea any such device existed!
yeah, but that still doesn't let you charge the batteries outside of the phone.
The battery tip is great, but even better than "more manufacturers making out of phone chargers" would be standard sized batteries, or at the very least, standard battery connectors, so anyone could make out of phone chargers, or one charger fits all.
I'm sure your digital overlords will be proud that you, their lackey, are so faithfully following the scriptures.
Perhaps you should look up the definition of theft.
Under C11, statutory damages are now limited to $5000 for non-commercial infiringement, so there's not a lot of incentive for the rights holders to pursue litigation.
Maybe not such a crazy idea. Maybe it's time to start laying criminal charges against the sites that deliver malware
If you RTFA, that is exactly the conclusion it draws. There is a fine balance between rewarding the creators and benefiting society. I think one of the great solutions proposed (funny, because I was just discussing this exact idea with someone a couple of nights ago) is to offer the opportunity for incremental increases in copyright term FOR A FEE.
This really is a win-win situation, because the public benefit either way. If a rights holder believes that there is still enough value to hold a copyright, they can pay for it and continue to monopolize revenue generation, but even then, the public still wins because the rights holder is paying into the public coffers which (arguably) benefit everyone.

apple inc (AAPL) Top Compensated Officers
apple inc (AAPL) Key Developments
Apple Inc. announced that it is going ahead with its plan to open smaller neighbourhood stores in India's big cities and tier II markets. The move would see the Cupertino, Calif. company set up venues through existing distributors and trade partners, and the new retail outlets would focus heavily on selling iPhones and iPads. Apple distributors Redington and Ingram Micro, along with existing trade partners, will set up the new stores; Apple has reportedly said in recent meetings that it's looking for its new retail outlets to be around 400 to 600 sq ft in size Apple wants to focus more on its entry-level models in these stores such as iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, iPad mini and iPad 2, which are essentially in the sub-30,000 segment and also its largest-selling products in India. The company feels these products are also attractively priced over competitors such as Samsung and Sony, and, being closer to the consumer will help to increase the conversion rate. Samsung presently holds on to around 32% of India's smartphone market (compared with Apple's 2% share), and the company's 1,000 'Samsung Cafes' provide consumers with easy access to a range of Samsung-made mobile devices across countless regions.
Apple Inc. released iOS 7.1, an update for the iPhone and iPad operating system that includes several new features and bug fixes. Chief among the additions is CarPlay, Apple's car infotainment system announced last week. IPhone 5s, 5c and 5 owners who own cars that support CarPlay will be able to use the feature, which includes the ability to make hands-free calls and listen to text messages. The update, which includes aesthetic changes to the interface, also fixes a bug that has come to be known as the "black/white screen of death." That bug caused a few Apple iOS devices to randomly crash and restart. Apple promised to fix the issue in January, and it has finally delivered a solution. Additionally, Apple said the update will improve how iOS 7 performs on the iPhone 4 and older versions of the iPad. The Apple software previously ran slowly on the iPhone 4, but the update should make it feel faster.
ZiiLabs Inc. Ltd. announced that it filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States against Samsung and Apple. The lawsuit alleges that certain products of Samsung (including various Galaxy phones and tablets, and laptops) and Apple (including various ranges of the iPhone and iPad, iMac and MacBook Pro) infringe a number of ZiiLabs patents. ZiiLabs owns over 100 US patents in the graphics, processor and 3D spaces. Ten of these patents have been asserted in the lawsuit, in which ZiiLabs is claiming past and future damages for patent infringement, and injunctions against Samsung and Apple. The lawsuit was filed on 10 March 2014 in the Eastern District of Texas. The patents being asserted are: US 5,831,637 Video Stream Data Mixing for 3D Graphics Systems; US 5,835,096 Rendering System Using 3D Texture-Processing Hardware for Accelerated 2D Rendering; US 6,111,584 Rendering System with Mini-Patch Retrieval from Local Texture Storage; US 6,650,333 Multi-Pool Texture Memory Management; US 6,683,615 Doubly-Virtualized Texture Memory; US 6,977,649 3D Graphics Rendering with Selective Read Suspend; US 7,050,061 Autonomous Address Translation in Graphic Subsystem; US 7,187,383 Yield Enhancement of Complex Chips; US 7,710,425 Graphic Memory Management with Invisible Hardware Managed Page Faulting; and US 8,144,156 Sequencer with Async SIMD Array.

Throughout all these milestones, Skype's servers didn't crash and all was well, because "our software is designed to handle large numbers of concurrent users, with wideband audio and group video calls all flowing smoothly around the world," the company said in a statement. "Skype software takes care of the complexities of network topography, firewalls, different OSes, multiple devices computers, and a myriad of connection types, leaving you to do the talking, laughing, smiling, crying, singing, dancing and more. Because we think 25 million is worth celebrating."
Just last month, Skype 5.0 was released. It integrates with Facebook by letting users see their News Feed, update their status, call or text Facebook friends for free, like, and comment on posts.
More importantly, the new Skype screen sharing and video calling has been upgraded to support up to 10 simultaneous users. As more and more users upgrade to the new version, that's going to be a huge strain on the servers.
User Comments: 4
Got something to say? Post a comment-
25 million users concurrently? DAMN. That's more users than the entire reported population of North Korea (who happens to be big in the news lately).
Skype has helped our family keep in touch with each other even though we are in different parts of the world. Congratulations, Skype !
Great cheap second line for my house. Love it!
Yes very nice and finally we can find other skype users at meetskype.com

For his work on the film, he received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.
Turning to comedy, O'Neal starred opposite Barbara Streisand in What's Up Doc? (1971). He then played a grifter working con games with his daughter (played by his real-life daughter Tatum) in the critically acclaimed hit Paper Moon (1973). Tatum won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role. While his daughter's career appeared to be heating up, O'Neal experienced several flops,
including Stanley Kubrick's 1975 historical drama Barry Lyndon and 1978's Oliver's Story, a sequel to Love Story. He also had a series of missed opportunities, having been considered and rejected for lead roles in The Godfather and Rocky. In 1979, O'Neal scored a box office win with The Main Event, starring again with Barbra Streisand in this popular boxing comedy.
Personal Life
His next few films failed to make much of an impression on critics or movie-goers, but he did receive some attention for his personal life. In 1983, O'Neal made headlines for a fight he had with his oldest son Griffin, in which he knocked out two of Griffin's teeth. Gossip columns also buzzed with rumors that O'Neal was dating actress Farrah Fawcett. Fawcett was still married to actor Lee Majors at the time, who was also one of O'Neal friends. While O'Neal and Fawcett never married, they welcomed a son, Redmond, in 1985.
Around this time, O'Neal scored a modest hit with 1984's Irreconcilable Differences. He co-starred with Shelley Long as parents who are sued for divorce by their daughter (played by Drew Barrymore). O'Neal returned to his television roots in 1991 with the sitcom Good Sports. He played a former football star who lands a sportscaster job at a sports cable network and ends up working with a former fling (played by Farrah Fawcett). The show lasted for only seven months.
In coming years, O'Neal became more famous for his off-screen life than his acting work. His relationship with Fawcett was an endless source of interest for the tabloid press. The couple broke up in the late 1990s, but they remained friendly after the split. They reunited in 2001, as O'Neal faced another challenge: cancer. He was able to successfully treat the disease with medication, and entered into remission. Around that same time, O'Neal appeared on the short-lived television drama Bull. He tried again in 2003 with the romantic comedy Miss Match, playing the father of a matchmaker across from Alicia Silverstone. The show was a ratings disaster, and didn't last a full season.
In 2005, O'Neal found himself under media scrutiny after his daughter Tatum published her autobiography A Paper Life. She wrote that he was an abusive father, and was responsible for introducing her and her brother Griffin to drugs at an early age. Despite this latest controversy, O'Neal scored a recurring role on the hit crime drama Bones. More family drama occurred in 2007, when O'Neal was arrested on assault charges after another run-in with son Griffin. During the altercation, Griffin's pregnant girlfriend was struck in the head with a fireplace poker, and O'Neal shot a gun into the air.

"Dear Holly,
I don't have much time. I don't mean literally, I mean, you're out buying ice cream and you'll be home soon…but I have a feeling this is the last letter. Because there's only one thing left to tell you. It isn't to go down memory lane or make you buy a lamp. You can take care of yourself without any help from me. It's to tell you how much you move me. How you changed me. You made me a man by loving me, Holly…and for that I am eternally grateful. Literally. If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you're sad…or unsure…or you lose complete faith…that you'll try and see yourself through my eyes. Thank you for the honor of being my wife. I'm a man with no regrets. How lucky am I? You made my life, Holly, but I'm just one chapter in yours. There'll be more. I promise. So here it comes, the big one. Don't be afraid to fall in love again. Watch out for that signal when life as you know it ends.
P.S. I will always love you."

Once a tin-weighing station, Chagford was an area of fierce fighting between the Roundheads and the Cavaliers during the English Civil War. Although officially a "town" since 1305, Chagford is more of a village, with taverns grouped around a seasoned old church and a curious "pepper-pot" market house on the site of the old Stannary Court. With a handful of cafés and shops to browse around, it makes a convenient base from which to explore north Dartmoor.

I am making web-based system on Windows Azure, which process orders from different sources - web-site or web-services. First thing appeared in my head was using Azure message queue from web-site and web-service Roles to some worker Role which will actually process orders.
I have found few articles about messages driven architecture with Azure and they looked fine - we are getting message from the client, put it to the queue and respond user "OK, your action was processed" after that worked thread will read that message and do all magic. BUT here is an issue - if I want to send message's processing result (order Id if it was success and fail reason if not) as a response to the client than I need to wait till the Worker Role will process it. The problem is that I did not find good/fast/cheap way to do that, as a possible way I can put message to the processing queue and check each X msecs if it was already processed or not (after processing, Worker will add information that message with Y Guid was processed together with results).
I don't really like idea with such waiting because time for order processing can be from few seconds to few minutes and it will be additional load on the system if each client (up to 10-20 at the same time) will check each X msec if his request was processed or not (main reason). Also it will be pretty expensive in view of Azure Tables access rate(minor reason).
Can you advice some good way to implement that, please? I am looking for something like Event waiting in the desktop apps, which cannot be made with Azure in view of highly distribution.

Tammie—of Nails by Tammie at Axis Hair Design—believes in nail health, which is why she offers a variety of services and treatments, including aqua-therapy salt soaks and coats of nail strengthener. Tammie finishes off treatments with polish from OPI, Essie, China Glaze, or long-lasting CND Shellac.
A lot has changed in the nail industry since the days of flaky polish and gas-powered clippers. That's why expert tech Marilyn Harrison vows to always be on the fringe of the latest trends in professional nailcare. In the comfort of her private Nailz by Mare suite, she can outfit claws with a simple coat of polish, or lavish a full spa package upon guests with a mani-pedi, brow waxing, and an invigorating facial treatment.
The licensed nail technicians at Elegant Image Nail Care Studio have pampered fingers and toes for nearly two decades. With an arsenal of cutting-edge services at their disposal, staffers gussy up digits with manicures, pedicures, polishing, and paraffin-wax treatments. They also sport the steady hands necessary to adorn nails with special artwork, such as tiny shooting stars or written reminders for where each little piggy is supposed to go.
La'Toya Clark of Polish'd Up Nail Studio is a professional at transforming hard-working hands into works of art. She adds length and color to fingernails with acrylics, paints on a fresh coat of basic or no-chip gel polish, and decorates digits with creative designs and other nail art.
At Essentially You, 100% natural bath and body products beckon customers with their aromatic scents and vitamin-rich formulas. Skincare products such as medowfoam oil moisturizer and 100% pure rosehip oil help moisturize the skin and diminish wrinkles, while the inventory of botanical butters, scrubs, and oils blooms with ylang-ylang, passion fruit, and lavender infusions. Clients who can't wait to get home can cozy up in the mini-spa for a facial or massage, which both incorporate many of the boutique's all-natural products. Essentially You also hosts eyelash, facial, and pamper parties where luxury-aficionados convene, revel in age-defying treatments, and play "pin the blemish on the donkey."
At Situations Hair and Nail Studio, a multitalented team applies makeup, extends lashes, and sculpts brows to help beautify clients for special occasions. After the crew has worked its magic, resident stylist Latoya steps up to the styling chair. Latoya frames the artwork produced by her compatriots with curls or straightened locks, both of which can be swiftly enhanced by extensions and sew-ins. She uses natural products as often as possible in order to help clients feel as healthy as their locks. And above everything, she welcomes all manner of customers, describing her salon as a "down-to-earth no-judgment zone."

LONDON (AP) — Hollywood's movie elite sent their love to ''Amour'' Thursday, giving director Michael Haneke's searing portrait of old age five Academy Award nominations including best foreign film and — unexpectedly — best picture.
The film stars octogenarian French acting greats Emmanuelle Riva and Jean-Louis Trintignant as a loving Parisian couple whose world is devastated by the wife's serious illness.
Unflinching, unsentimental and in French, it was a surprise inclusion among nine best-picture nominees, and also garnered nominations for Haneke's direction, for original screenplay and for the performance of 85-year-old Riva.
''I am very happy and gratified ... that the voting members of the Academy have taken the film so strongly to their hearts,'' Haneke said in a statement.
A foreign-film finalist alongside movies from Canada, Denmark, Norway and Chile, ''Amour'' is one of a handful of non-English-language films ever nominated for the best-picture Oscar.
Although far from mainstream movie formula — there's no happy ending — it has left a trail of enraptured critics and emotionally drained audiences since its May premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, where it won the top prize.
Tender and unsparing in its depiction of illness and death, ''Amour'' is a departure for the director of ''Funny Games,'' ''Hidden'' and ''The White Ribbon,'' who is best known for films shot through with tension and sudden outbursts of violence.
Trintignant, who has appeared in more than 100 movies, has called Haneke the most demanding director he has ever worked with.
Haneke gives few interviews and makes few concessions to industry hype. But the filmmaker said the nominations were ''a joyous occasion.''
''It is fulfilling to discover that a film has found the audience and critical acclaim that 'Amour' has garnered,'' he said.
Austria also scored an acting nomination, with Christoph Waltz up for best supporting actor for Quentin Tarantino's ''Django Unchained.'' Waltz won the supporting actor prize for his turn as a loquacious Nazi in Tarantino's ''Inglourious Basterds.''
The other foreign-language nominees are 18th-century court saga ''A Royal Affair'' by Denmark's Nikolaj Arcel; child soldier drama ''War Witch'' by Canada's Kim Nguyen; seafaring adventure ''Kon-Tiki'' by Norway's Joachim Roenning and Espen Sandberg; and ''No'' by Chile's Pablo Larrain.
''No'' tells the story of a Chilean ad agency that helped to oust dictator Augusto Pinochet through a clever marketing campaign around a 1988 referendum. The film, starring Gael Garcia Bernal, was a surprise hit at Cannes and has since gathered accolades around the world.
Larrain said it struck a chord because it told an unusual story.
''Dictators are not usually ousted through democratic elections and this is a profoundly human story, which is resolved through things that have to do more with beauty than with horror,'' he said.
''A Royal Affair'' is a tale of love and intrigue centered on a triangle involving an ailing Danish king, his queen and the monarch's forward-thinking physician, played by former Bond villain Mads Mikkelsen.
Director Arcel said the nomination made Thursday ''one of the most exciting days in my life and career.''
''Kon-Tiki'' recreates explorer Thor Heyerdahl's audacious 1947 journey across the Pacific Ocean on a balsa-wood raft. The 101-day trip was designed to prove that South Americans could have settled Polynesia in pre-Columbus times.
The $16 million budget makes it one of the most expensive Norwegian movies ever made.
Directed by Montreal-born Nguyen, ''War Witch'' — known as ''Rebelle'' in French — follows a 12-year-old girl abducted by a rebel army. It was filmed in Congo with a partly non-professional cast but set amid an unspecified conflict.
Its teenage star, Rachel Mwanza — who formerly lived on the streets of Kinshasa — won acting prizes at the Berlin and Tribeca film festivals.
Nguyen said that the Oscar nomination for ''War Witch'' was ''a great privilege and an honor.''
''I will always remember when Rachel Mwanza, after being the first African woman to ever win the Silver Bear for Best Actress (in Berlin), returned home to the Congolese streets of Kinshasa and was greeted by passionate chants and overwhelming pride,'' he said. ''So, in the case of 'War Witch,' these recognitions do make a difference. They bring back pride to a nation that greatly needs it. ''
But he conceded that Haneke was probably the front-runner to take the foreign-language prize when winners of the 85th Oscars are announced in Hollywood on Feb. 24.
''We're clearly the underdog in all of this. Haneke has such a legacy,'' Nguyen said. Still, he added, ''underdogs are appreciated in the United States. ''
Associated Press Writers Luis Henao in Santiago, Chile, Jan Olsen in Copenhagen, Matti Huuhtanen in Helsinki and Charmaine Noronha and Rob Gillies in Toronto contributed to this report.
