VICE 17: The Pink Gang Rebellion & Genetic Passport
Duration :
Summary: "The Pink Gang Rebellion" (correspondent: Gelareh Kiazand) - The brutal details of a 2012 gang rape on a Delhi bus focused international attention on India's rampant rape issue. Inept law enforcement, the social stigma associated with rape, and a patriarchal social structure have allowed sexual assaults to plague Indian women. Delhi's police department has vowed to hire more female officers and set up a help desk, but these measures are hardly a solution. Rapes in Delhi doubled in 2013, and as bad as it is in Delhi, the Indian countryside is even worse. Instead of investigating rape cases, rural police officers often ignore victims and their families. But one woman, Sampat Pal, has galvanized a group of rural women into the Gulabi Gang, or Pink Gang, to combat the injustice of sexual assault. Gelareh Kiazand heads to rural India to investigate the issue and embed with this revolutionary gang."Genetic Passport" (correspondent: Thomas Morton) - From 1949 to 1989, the Soviet Union, determined to prepare for nuclear warfare, detonated more than 450 nuclear bombs in an area of Kazakhstan known as the Semipalatinsk Test Site. For hundreds of thousands of Kazakhs, radiation not only surrounded them, but became part of their DNA. In an effort to curtail the birth of a new generation of deformed children, a Kazakh doctor recently tried to implement a mandatory "genetic passport" allowing people to know if their genes were damaged by radiation. Thomas Morton goes to Kazakhstan to learn more about this controversial initiative. Note: contains disturbing images. (TV14) (AC)

My presentation from the Agile Encore 2013 conference called "Visual Management: Leading With What You Can See" is available on Slideshare.
Renee Troughton was unfortunately unable to join me to present this reprise of the talk we presented together at Agile Australia 2013.
Using task boards or story walls is a key Agile practice, but are you making the most of it? Visual Management is more than just putting cards on a wall, it is a growing style of management that focuses on managing work only by what you can see rather than reports or paper being shuffled around. Visual Management allows you to understand the constraints in the system, mitigate risks before they become issues, report on progress from the micro to the macro. Visual Management can also be used to demonstrate to customers and clients where the work they care about is at. This presentation is all about taking the management of your work to the next stage of transparency. Discover:
* How to identify when your story wall isn't telling you everything and how to adjust it
* What the three different types of story walls are and which one is more suitable to certain circumstances
* Different ways to visualise your product backlogWhy queue columns and limiting work in progress is so important regardless of whether you are using Scrum or Kanban
* How symbols and tokens can be used to give more information
* What else can you use other than story walls to visualise information
* How to ingrain Visual Management into both the team and management structures of your organisation
* Visualising Your Quality, Testing and Team
* What is systemic flow mapping and why is it important
Unfortunately the talk was interrupted about three-quarters of the way through by a rogue video conference call into the auditorium. My attempt to try and answer questions why people were trying to fix the problem were interrupted by audio coming through the call. We soldiered on – but it interrupted the flow.
Wishing my good friend @smithcdau best of luck doing Visual Management at Agile Encore tomorrow – wont be the same without Penny—
Renee Troughton (@AgileRenee) November 13, 2013
@AgileRenee ….@smithcdau said to tweet to you…wishing you were here #agileencore—

Presentation at #agileencore done, probably remembered more for the 10min VC interruption than the content though :-(—
Craig Smith (@smithcdau) November 14, 2013
@smithcdau No, we'll handled. Interrupted a good preso though—
CPW (@CPW_74) November 14, 2013

Born to a San Diego family, Ryan Porteous was fortunate to grow up in the coastal community of Pacific Beach in a time when P.B. was booming. His father an environmental consultant and mom a grade school science teacher, Ryan was oriented toward getting an advanced education from an early age. Beginning at Mission Bay High School, after graduation Ryan matriculated to UC Santa Barbara.
Ryan was introduced to water sports at a young age, firmly rooting his destiny in boating. At Mission Bay Yacht Club, he attended the Junior Summer Sailing Program from age seven to ten. It was there at MBYC that Ryan learned to sail and then eventually race. "I started out in sabots, progressing from C3 to A fleet, then on to 420s, lasers, and other sailboats, racing at junior regattas and other types of fleet racing." Being the ace that he has become Ryan humbly explains, "I have won multiple local regattas in these boats and done well in national regattas, as well." Some notable achievements were winning the 2007 Mark Reynolds Perpetual Trophy in the 420 class, and placing third then second in the 2008, then 2009 ISAF (International Sailing Federation) Youth World Qualifiers in Multihulls.
Things were going well for Ryan when he headed off on a camping trip in October of 2011. Regrettably, while walking on a dock he slipped and changed his life forever. "I have a C-6 spinal cord injury which caused almost total paralysis. I broke my neck in a freak accident in which I slipped and fell to the ground, clipping my head on the end of the dock. I lost control of my body from the neck down." Continue reading →

Can you guess the brands above? In great brand design, form is always led by function, and in that regard, what's most impressive about these iconic logos is not that they are recognizable (and beautiful) but clearly tell you exactly what they're about. They are a call to action, telling you exactly how each can be utilized by the consumer.
Be an all star. Take a bite from the fruit of knowledge. Roll on four wheels. Read the clock hands.
At last month's Dwell on Design event there was a lecture titled "The New Face of Affluence", the Dwell Insights Group discussed how younger luxury consumers weigh design heavily when determining their trust and loyalty in a brand. In short, good design = good brand.
This of course, got me thinking about some of the most popular designer furniture of the last century: Van Der Rohe's Barcelona chair, Saarinen's Tulip table, or even the Eames chairs illustrated above. Great design, it seems, creates something greater than a mere object or image. It creates iconography - a unique reflection of time and place.
Anyone who's read my posts before knows that I lean toward contemporary design and art, and yet I'm always drawn to the allure of classic Mid-century modern lighting and decor. The flower:
Possini Euro Design White Flower Pendant Chandelier
The floor routine:
Chrome Boom Arc Floor Lamp with Linen Shade
And a memorable work of art:
Josef Albers' Homage to a Square
In branding work and in creative work, good design is what stands the test of time. It favors superb over superfluous. And at its very best, it needs no words to describe itself.
On that note, the logos at the top of this post are, from left to right: Converse, Apple, Audi and Movado.

Today's modern chandelier often times double as an art installation. Is this good or bad? Well, how can art ever be bad? As long as you understand how to translate these designs to work in your own home, then you're able to enjoy them as the inspiration that they are.
This innovative creation (above), designed by Elisa Strozyk, is made out of small triangles of wood. Where you would normally see wood used only as a flat surface in product design, this chandelier can be bent and shaped however you like, far from a flat surface.
Innovative product design is similar to the fashion runway... Would you necessarily wear that? Similarly, would you ever put that in your home (above)? However, you can use the materials, colors and form as inspiration for selecting a modern chandelier. Also, the way it relates to the space can be a form of inspiration as well.
One very simple way to achieve these lighting-meets-art look is to go with an over sized fixtures (above two images), but keep the materials simple. Proportions can definitely be played with to make a statement in any room.
Another way to turn your modern lighting into art is to keep the furnishings and decor around it simple (above). Allow your modern chandelier, big or small to stand out.
Here's a few fun ideas for unconventional chandeliers that will surely make a statement in your home.
1. Fredrick Ramond Mondo Chandelier, 2. Maxim Chantilly Nickel Jewelry Chain Chandelier, 3. Possini Glass Orbs Pendant Chandelier, 4. Possini Corinthian Bronze Twist Chandelier, 5. Vienna Full Spectrum Chrome and Crystal Chandelier
Don't limit your sources for inspiration, just because certain products won't fit in your home (or budget), doesn't mean you can't pull ideas from them. Designing is about solving problems so there's always a way to achieve the look you want!

Congratulations guys!!! Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com for details on how to recieve your prize.
We're in Vegas today for the Las Vegas Market and we hope to bring back lots of inspiration for you. In honor of our trip, we thought we would profile some modern Las Vegas architecture.
We've all seen Vegas architecture develop from the days when The Flamengo was the new hot spot (at least in photos) to today's design eye candy. Case in point, the pool deck and cafe at the new City Center's Aria!
We'll make sure to at least stop by and see this architecture up close. If it looks this cool in photographs, imagine...
The interiors of the cabanas are extremely private and appear to have full service attendance. Plenty of modern outdoor furniture is the key for comfortable Summertime lounging and ceiling fans never hurt.
Hope you're all having a great Monday, even if you're not lounging by a super cool pool bar on stylish bar stools.

Pyramid of the Magician, Uxmal
As I plan a trip to Mexico soon, somewhere I have been many times as a child, I can't help but do some research as I prepare for my trip as an adult. More specifically, an adult who loves design and architecture.
Mexico is a country built on tradition and history. As you tour its cities, you will see modern structures next to old, broken down buildings from ancient times. Rather than tear down and build new, much of the architectural philosophy is to build around and upward. Progress, but do not forget.
Maya civilization dominated southern Mesoamerica in the second half of the first millennium AD. Classic phase (600 to about 900) architecture (above) is characterized by an exquisite sense of proportion and design, seen in the structural refinement and subtle detailing.
The National Palace in Mexico City
Mexico's colonial history marked the collision of the European and Indigenous cultures, giving rise to a new form of art and architecture. Most colonial cities were planned around a plaza, which held the three main institutions: the cathedral, the administrative center (above) and the court.
Palacio de Bellas Artes
During the 19th and early 20th century Emperor Maximilian I brought a new set of urban design ideas to Mexico. Drawing from the mid-century Parisian redevelopment plan, he built a broad new diagonal avenue called Paseo de la Reforma. This elegant boulevard ran for miles from the downtown National Palace to the lush Chapultepec Park where the Austrian ruler lived. Neo-Gothic designs incorporated into the monumental public buildings, including its cultural center (above).
La Torre Latinoamericana
As modern times began to impact the urban design of Mexico, functionalism, expressionism, and other schools would leave their imprint, combining techniques and stylistic elements of Europe and North American techniques.
It's quite interesting to see modern Mexico develop and how it seems to be coming around full circle. I can't help but notice the similarities between The Soumaya Museum (above), completed in 2011, and The Pyramid of the Magician, Uxmal (top).
This stunningly modern structure houses one of the most important art collections in Latin America with over 6,200 artworks and 60,000 square feet of exhibition space. It also includes an auditorium for 350 people, library, offices, a restaurant, a gift shop and a multi-purpose gathering lounge.
This stunning structure is located in a former industrial zone dating from the 1940's, providing the opportunity to play a key role in the reconversion of the area as a cultural center and defining a new model for Mexican and international architecture.
Structurally, this organic and asymmetrical design is constructed with twenty eight steel curved columns of different diameters, offering a soft non-linear circulation all through the building. Located at each floor level, seven ring beams provide a system that braces the structure and guarantees its stability. It widens at the top, where a roof suspended from a cantilever allows natural daylight onto the top floor gallery. The windowless facade is composed of hexagonal aluminium tiles. Strategic track lighting is great for complimenting natural light. The lack of any modern furniture, such as benches, keeps the space clean and leaving the spotlight on the art.
The study of modern design and architecture would be endlessly entertaining, but understanding it's history provides inspiration at an entirely new level. The develpment of entire cities goes hand-in-hand with the culture of that particular civilization, giving the architecture that emerges immesurable personality.

LaGRANGE —
In his thesis, David Wagner of Hillsdale College in Michigan gives a detailed picture of the pivotal role played by the pipe organ in the development of religious freedom and culture in the colonies of the New World.
"American history offers only a brief glimpse of the journey of the pipe organs from the ancient Greeks to the present-day," he wrote.
Wagner asserts the organ maintains a certain power.
"Though no longer just viewed as a tool for worship, the organ, because of its personality, size, volume, and variety of sound, impresses human spirit in unique and indescribable ways," he wrote. "It remains a monument to the triumph of human skill and culture: an intersection between science, art, and craftsmanship, an ever-changing bridge between past and present."
With such a rich history, it is no wonder the congregation of First Presbyterian Church of LaGrange is investing in the complete restoration of its huge pipe organ.
In 2013 it will have been 100 years since the installation of a pneumatic assist, Hinner Tracker 14 rank pipe organ in their church. The organ had (and still does have) the original "surround-sound" emanating from those 671 pipes.
Although it appears as one unit, the Hinner is actually a combination of three organs.
"A survey of the instrument by several organ experts showed that many of the original stops, pipes, wood and other components are in relatively good condition," said church Pastor Ken Weaver. "Unfortunately, only one of three 'organs' within the instrument is currently working."
Having been the official church organist for the past 30 years, Kevin Ramer knows this organ very well. He manages to play around the instruments disabled parts. "There are keys, keyboards and pedals that no longer work," Ramer said. "I have had to learn how to play around these problems.
"I may have to take lessons again because I am so used to playing around the flaws," he admitted chuckling. "I won't know what to do with a completely functioning instrument. I can't wait to play it after the restoration."
Ramer played the organ's farewell concert in October to an appreciative audience of LaGrange residents, parishioners and Ramer fans.
Gail and Hank Gore praised Ramer's talents on the instrument. They worked with Ramer in summer-stock theater and read about the concert in the Lutheran church bulletin.
David Schmidt is a retired teacher and a member of the First Presbyterian Church.
"I see the organ's restoration as a new beginning for our church," Schmidt said. "It is like a reformation. We are looking forward. We plan to take an active role in bringing cultural events and music to the community on a regular basis."
The organ's authentic restoration will be done by the Levsen Organ Company of Buffalo, Iowa. In January the organ will be completely dismantled and the main wind reservoir bellows removed. Several large pieces of the organ will be transported to Iowa where they will be repaired at the Levsen workshop. The pipes and other components will be restored at the church by Levsen technicians.
Weaver said while the restoration takes place, they intend to renovate the chancel of the sanctuary. The new architectural focus will be on the magnificent oak casework of the organ. The space will be enlarged and other changes will be made to accommodate moving the organ forward a foot or two, providing better access for tuning and on-going maintenance.
"It would be wonderful to hold the rededication of the organ on Easter Sunday," Weaver said. "We feel that our organ is an important piece of the heritage and history of LaGrange. We want to take every opportunity to share the joy and good fortune with our community."

The stabbing death of 16-year-old Hemet High School student Eric Sargeant Jr. on Monday was not the result of a battle over his cellphone, the Riverside County Sheriff's Department.
Despite rumors circulating on social networks and in the community, sheriff's spokesman Albert Martinez wrote in an email today that "at this time there is no indication of the cell phone being a factor in the stabbing."
The boy was stabbed Monday evening in what witnesses told deputies was an attack by three or four youths.
No specific suspects have been identified and no information has been released on how close investigators are to an arrest.
Two vigils have been held so far as the news of Eric's death has hit the community hard since the stabbing near the intersection of Acacia Avenue and Cherrywood Drive.
The boy's funeral is scheduled at 11 a.m. Saturday in the Hemet Church of the Nazarene, 42655 E Florida Ave. in Hemet.

Give your dog the treat they love and keep them feeling great!
Arthogen Can Help:
Arthogen meets FDA standards and pet owners everywhere are raving about our formula's effectiveness. Don't let your dog suffer another day, ask your veterinarian about Arthogen today! There are several types of arthritis that can afflict dogs of all breeds and sizes. The most common forms of canine arthritis are:
The ultimate outcome of these factors is a joint that simply isn't working properly and where the sensory nerve endings in the supporting joint structures are irritated. These irritated nerve endings in the stressed joint tissues send pain and discomfort signals to the brain. The result is a dog that limps, rests often and is reluctant to move in a normal fashion. And since there is no nerve cells in articular cartilage, when pain is present it is coming from the joint capsule, ligaments and supporting tissues.
These changes in a joint can occur rapidly, such as after a fracture and unsatisfactory healing, or progress with subtle but long term damage as with moderate forms of hip dysplasia. Gradual degeneration of the spine such as in the image above is very common and takes years to develop. Since there are no blood vessels or sensory nerves in joint cartilage, damage to cartilage can be quite advanced before the surrounding supportive tissues become inflamed and sore.
There are over 60 million dogs in the United States and Canada alone. Studies have proven that at least 10 to 15% of dogs suffer from arthritis and other joint stiffness. Arthritis in dogs is one of the most common health problems seen by veterinarians, unfortunately dog owners and veterinarians rarely notice the early warning signs of arthritis in dogs because these animals have the character to ignore soreness and discomfort until the arthritic changes in the joints have progressed significantly.
Could your dog be suffering from Arthritis and you don't know it? YES.
Arthritis is a degenerative condition of the joints, which impairs joint mobility and often results in chronic pain. In the normal joint, the surfaces of the bone that meet together are lined with a thin layer of cartilage, which acts as a shock absorber. The whole joint is enclosed in a membrane that secretes synovial fluid to help lubricate these surfaces. Gradually, wear and tear may erode the cartilage, so that the underlying bone becomes exposed, resulting in pain and reduced joint movement. Arthritis may occur later in life following injury to a joint in the past. Arthritic changes can be exacerbated by the excess forces on the joint, which result if the dog is overweight. The 'major' joints are most commonly affected: the hips, stifles ('knees'), elbows and back.
Their mission at PetLabs360 is to offer the most effective, highest quality health and nutritional supplements for pets. That is why all of their supplements are made with 100% human grade ingredients of the highest quality! At PetLabs360, their greatest asset is the talented staff, who work tirelessly to consistently improve upon our products as well as ensuring the best customer service. PetLabs360's staff is comprised of individuals with substantial industry knowledge and expertise.

Hot Off the Presses: GLASS #136, Fall 2014
Filed under: Announcements, News, Print Edition
The Fall 2014 edition of GLASS: The UrbanGlass Art Quarterly (#134) will hit newsstands and subscriber mailboxes over the next few days. On the cover is Joyce J. Scott's work Congo III (2008) which reads at first glance as a glass beaded figurative folk artwork. But something draws us to look more closely, when, disarmed by our first impression of homespun craft, we take in the doll-like figure's presentation more carefully as the contorted body and facial expression reveal we are gazing at an African woman who is a victim of rape. The title alerts us to the work's reference to the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country wracked by violence of all kinds, including sexual violence at unprecendented scale.

Sherman Oaks chiropractor Dr. Robert Alan Schwartz focuses on providing natural medicine and holistic care at Hygiea Health and Wellness. Our mission is to provide natural treatments, guidance and support that contribute to optimum physical and emotional health. Dr. Schwartz is a B.E.S.T. chiropractor and an Elite Master with over 23 years of experience providing custom health and healing programs. Our health programs are founded in the 6 essentials for life as set out by Dr. Morter. The 6 essentials focus on what you eat and drink and how you exercise, rest, breathe and think. Dr. Schwartz's programs support these essentials through the use of B.E.S.T., NAET allergy elimination, sound wave therapy, cold laser therapy, KST ArthroStim adjustments, herbology and whole food supplements.
At our center, we focus less on traditional chiropractic care and more on other natural techniques for total health optimization. Our Sherman Oaks natural medicine approach gives the body a break from the steady stream of toxins and chemicals to which it is exposed through foods, environmental pollutants, and other sources. Health care, to us, is more than treating a car accident injury or ailments; it is helping to ensure the body and mind receive the proper care needed to function in the fullest capacity.
As an experienced Sherman Oaks chiropractor and B.E.S.T. practitioner, Dr. Schwartz focuses on both healing and vitalism. Vitalistic chiropractic care centers on the belief that when the body is balanced, it has the innate ability to regulate and heal itself. Back pain, neck pain, pinched nerves and other issues are caused by the neuro-spinal system storing physical, chemical and emotion stress. This stress can be caused by a car accident injury, sports or personal injury, chronic poor posture, and health conditions such as fibromyalgia and scoliosis. Through use of both the Koren Specific Technique (KST) and the ArthroStim adjusting instrument, Dr. Schwartz is able to thoroughly examine and determine your exact cause of discomfort and provide a gentle adjustment for longer lasting and more extensive relief than from traditional manual adjustments.
Our KST ArthroStim chiropractic treatments for a car accident injury or misalignment are one aspect of our practice, but we also offer myriad services that empower the body to heal itself. Nutrition is a major key to keeping the body in working order, ensuring the body receives the nutrients and calories it needs to function properly. Dr. Schwartz offers nutrition counseling that is based in herbology and whole food supplements. By examining what you eat and drink, and how you exercise, rest, breathe and think, Dr. Schwartz is able to help patients experience weight loss and reach overall wellness and health goals.
At Hygiea Health & Wellness, natural medicine is our core focus. As a B.E.S.T. chiropractor focusing on the 6 essentials for life, Dr. Schwartz can help you experience true vitality by bringing balance to your body.
We invite you to learn more about natural treatments and healthy living through our website.

Bill, I just saw the post today, haven't spent much time on the site the last couple months. Debbie and I are praying for you and Jo. We know this is a trying time for both of you. Keep in mind "the footprints in the sand". You are not in this alone. Keep us all posted and take good care of that Lady.

Re: We need your prayers
Just an update for you. Jo is scheduled for breast surgery on Mar. 6 at the Cleveland Clinic. She has a Dr. that we are really impressed with. He is a breast cancer specialist and the only surgery he does is on breast cancer patients. We are both very comfortable with him as her Dr. It took a while to find a Dr. we were comfortable with and he is it.
Thank you all so much for your prayers, they are appreciated.

You both hit the nail on the head with that one. Being comfortable with the surgeon is crucial. Having said that, we all must accept that the Lord places the hands that we need with the tools that we need. I believe that Jo is in the right hands.

Chinafest Nordrhein-Westfalen
Celebrating 2012 China Year in Cologne.
The centre of interest was the NRW China Festival (14 - 16/09/2012) organised both by the city of Cologne and by the State government.
A Chinese market was opened to visitors on Roncalli square, creating an authentic Chinese atmosphere, offering delicious titbits from Chinese cuisine, and featuring arts and sports shows which include, e.g., Tai Chi and Qigong presentations.

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)
And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.
Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.
Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!
Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.
But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.
Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.
And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.

MojoKid writes We're often told that having a kill switch in our mobile devices — mostly our smartphones — is a good thing. At a basic level, that's hard to disagree with. If every mobile device had a built-in kill switch, theft would go down — who would waste their time over a device that probably won't work for very long? Here's where the problem lays: It's law enforcement that's pushing so hard for these kill switches. We first learned about this last summer, and this past May, California passed a law that requires smartphone vendors to implement the feature. In practice, if a smartphone has been stolen, or has been somehow compromised, its user or manufacturer would be able to remotely kill off its usability, something that would be reversed once the phone gets back into its rightful owner's hands. However, such functionality should be limited to the device's owner, and no one else. If the owner can disable a phone with nothing but access to a computer or another mobile device, so can Google, Samsung, Microsoft, Nokia or Apple. If the designers of a phone's operating system can brick a phone, guess who else can do the same? Everybody from the NSA to your friendly neighborhood police force, that's who. At most, all they'll need is a convincing argument that they're acting in the interest of "public safety."
msm1267 writes: The keepers of Tor commissioned a study testing the defenses and viability of their Firefox-based browser as a privacy tool. The results (PDF) were a bit eye-opening since the report's recommendations don't favor Firefox as a baseline for Tor, rather Google Chrome. But Tor's handlers concede that budget constraints and Chrome's limitations on proxy support make a switch or a fork impossible.
Via TorrentFreak comes news that Google is now being asked to remove one million links per day (or an average of one takedown notice every 8ms). In 2008, they received one takedown request approximately every six days. From the article: The massive surge in removal requests is not without controversy. It's been reported that some notices reference pages that contain no copyrighted material, due to mistakes or abuse, but are deleted nonetheless. Google has a pretty good track record of catching these errors, but since manual review of all links is unachievable, some URLs are removed in error. ... The issue has also piqued the interest of U.S. lawmakers. Earlier this year the House Judiciary Subcommittee had a hearing on the DMCA takedown issue, and both copyright holders, Internet service providers, and other parties are examining what they can do to optimize the process. In the meantime, the number of removal requests is expected to rise and rise, with 10 million links per week being the next milestone.
stephendavion (2872091) writes Researchers will demonstrate the process used to spy on smartphones using gyroscopes at Usenix Security event on August 22, 2014. Researchers from Stanford and a defense research group at Rafael will demonstrate a way to spy on smartphones using gyroscopes at Usenix Security event on August 22, 2014. According to the "Gyrophone: Recognizing Speech From Gyroscope Signals" study, the gyroscopes integrated into smartphones were sensitive enough to enable some sound waves to be picked up, transforming them into crude microphones.
walterbyrd sends this story from Vox: Everyone agrees that there's been an explosion of patent litigation in recent years, and that lawsuits from non-practicing entities (NPEs) — known to critics as patent trolls — are a major factor. But there's a big debate about whether trolls are creating a drag on innovation — and if so, how big the problem is. A new study (PDF) by researchers at Harvard and the University of Texas provides some insight on this question. Drawing from data on litigation, R&D spending, and patent citations, the researchers find that firms that are forced to pay NPEs (either because they lost a lawsuit or settled out of court) dramatically reduce R&D spending: losing firms spent $211 million less on R&D, on average, than firms that won a lawsuit against a troll. "After losing to NPEs, firms significantly reduce R&D spending — both projects inside the firm and acquiring innovative R&D outside the firm," the authors write. "Our evidence suggests that it really is the NPE litigation event that causes this decrease in innovation."
mpicpp sends word of a $125,000 settlement for a man who was arrested for photographing members of the New York Police Department. On June 14th, 2012, the man was sitting in his car when he saw three African-American youths being stopped and frisked by police officers. He began taking pictures of the encounter, and after the police were done, he advised the youths to get the officers' badge numbers next time. When the officers heard him, they pulled him violently from his car and arrested him under a charge of disorderly conduct. The police allegedly deleted the pictures from his phone (PDF). Rather than go to trial, the city's lawyers decided a settlement was the best course of action.
cold fjord writes: According to Foreign Policy, "The revelation that Germany spies on Turkey, a NATO member, should dispel any notion that spying on allies violates the unwritten rules of international espionage. ... For nearly a year, the extent of NSA surveillance on German leaders ... has drawn stern rebuke from the German political and media establishment. ... Merkel went so far as to publicly oust the CIA station chief in Berlin. 'Spying among friends is not at all acceptable,' Merkel said. ... [C]alls made by Secretary of State John Kerry and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were accidentally recorded. ... 'It's a kind of delightful revelation given the fact that the Germans have been on their high horse.' Christian Whiton, a former ... State Department senior advisor, added that the report on German spying is a perfect example of why rifts over intelligence among allies should be handled quietly and privately." The Wall Street Journal adds, "Cem Özdemir, the head of the Green party and a leading German politician of Turkish descent, told Spiegel Online it would be 'irresponsible' for German spies not to target Turkey given its location as a transit country for Islamic State militants from Europe." Further details at Spiegel Online and The Wall Street Journal."
Fubar writes: Two city council members from Phoenix, AZ are introducing "draft language" for public discussion that would make it illegal to use a drone to film people without their knowledge. The council members are worred about privacy of people in their own yards, even including the requirement that law enforcement obtain a warrant for drone surveillance. A violation of the ordinance would be a Class 1 misdemeanor, which carries up to a $2,500 fine and six months in jail.
itwbennett (1594911) writes In a follow-up to yesterday's story about the Chinese hackers who stole hospital data of 4.5 million patients, IDG News Service's Martyn Williams set out to learn why the data, which didn't include credit card information, was so valuable. The answer is depressingly simple: people without health insurance can potentially get treatment by using medical data of one of the hacking victims. John Halamka, chief information officer of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and chairman of the New England Healthcare Exchange Network, said a medical record can be worth between $50 and $250 to the right customer — many times more than the amount typically paid for a credit card number, or the cents paid for a user name and password. "If I am one of the 50 million Americans who are uninsured ... and I need a million-dollar heart transplant, for $250 I can get a complete medical record including insurance company details," he said.
mdsolar (1045926) writes with this disconcerting story from CNet about security breaches at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, revealed in a new report to have been compromised three times in the last three years: The body that governs America's nuclear power providers said in an internal investigation that two of the hacks are suspected to have come from unnamed foreign countries, the news site Nextgov reported based on a Freedom of Information Act request. The source of the third hack could not be identified because the logs of the incident had been destroyed, the report said. Hackers, often sponsored by foreign governments, have targeted the US more frequently in recent years. A report (PDF) on attacks against government computers noted that there was a 35 percent increase between 2010 and 2013.
Intruders used common hacking techniques to get at the NRC's computers. One attack linked to a foreign country or individual involved phishing emails that coerced NRC employees into submitting their login credentials. The second one linked to a foreign government or individual used spearphishing, or emails targeted at specific NRC employees, to convince them to click a link that led to a malware site hosted on Microsoft's cloud storage site SkyDrive, now called OneDrive. The third attack involved breaking into the personal account of a NRC employee. After sending a malicious PDF attachment to 16 other NRC employees, one person was infected with malware.
An anonymous reader writes The news aggregator Fark is ancient in dot com terms. Users submit news links to the privately run site and tear it — and each other — to pieces in the discussion threads. (Sound familiar?) While the site isn't as popular as during the early 2000s, the privately run discussion forum has continued and has its champions. site operator Drew Curtis announced today that Gifs, references, jokes and comments involving sexism will be deleted. "Adam Savage once described to me the problem this way: if the Internet was a dude, we'd all agree that dude has a serious problem with women. We've actually been tightening up moderation style along these lines for awhile now, but as of today, the FArQ will be updated with new rules reminding you all that we don't want to be the He Man Woman Hater's Club. This represents enough of a departure from pretty much how every other large internet community operates that I figure an announcement is necessary."
Given how bare-knuckled Fark can be, is it time? Overdue?
Personal Audio has been trying to assert patents they claim cover podcasting for some time now; in March Adam Carolla was sued and decided to fight back. Via the EFF comes news that he has settled with Personal Audio, and the outcome is likely beneficial to those still fighting the trolls. From the article: Although the settlement is confidential, we can guess the terms. This is because Personal Audio sent out a press release last month saying it was willing to walk away from its suit with Carolla. So we can assume that Carolla did not pay Personal Audio a penny. We can also assume that, in exchange, Carolla has given up the opportunity to challenge the patent and the chance to get his attorney's fees. ... EFF's own challenge to Personal Audio's patent is on a separate track and will continue ... with a ruling likely by April 2015. ... We hope that Personal Audio's public statements on this issue mean that it has truly abandoned threatening and suing podcasters. Though a press release might not be legally binding, the company will have a hard time justifying any further litigation (or threats of litigation) against podcasters. Any future targets can point to this statement. Carolla deserves recognition for getting this result.
itwbennett (1594911) writes Community Health Systems said the attack occurred in April and June of this year, but it wasn't until July that it determined the theft had taken place. Working with a computer security company, it determined the attack was carried out by a group based in China that used 'highly sophisticated malware' to attack its systems. The hackers got away with patient names, addresses, birthdates, telephone numbers and Social Security numbers of the 4.5 million people who were referred to or received services from doctors affiliated with the company in the last five years. The stolen data did not include patient credit card, medical, or clinical information.
A few weeks ago, Rightscorp announced plans to have ISPs disconnect repeat copyright infringers. mpicpp (3454017) wrote in with news that Rightscorp announced during their latest earnings call further plans to require ISPs to block all web access (using a proxy system similar to hotel / college campus wifi logins) until users admit guilt and pay a settlement fine (replacing the current system of ISPs merely forwarding notices to users). Quoting TorrentFreak: [Rightscorp] says 75,000 cases have been settled so far with copyright holders picking up $10 from each. ... What is clear is that Rightscorp is determined to go after "Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, Cable Vision and one more" in order to "get all of them compliant" (i.e forwarding settlement demands). The company predicts that more details on the strategy will develop in the fall, but comments from COO & CTO Robert Steele hint on how that might be achieved. ... "[What] we really want to do is move away from termination and move to what's called a hard redirect, like, when you go into a hotel and you have to put your room number in order to get past the browser and get on to browsing the web." The idea that mere allegations from an anti-piracy company could bring a complete halt to an entire household or business Internet connection until a fine is paid is less like a "piracy speeding ticket" and more like a "piracy wheel clamp", one that costs $20 to have removed.
alphadogg (971356) writes with news that the transition from Windows to GNU/Linux in Munich may be in danger The German city of Munich, long one of the open-source community's poster children for the institutional adoption of Linux, is close to performing a major about-face and returning to Microsoft products. Munich's deputy mayor, Josef Schmid, told the Süddeutsche Zeitung that user complaints had prompted a reconsideration (Google translation to English) of the city's end-user software, which has been progressively converted from Microsoft to a custom Linux distribution — "LiMux" — in a process that dates back to 2003.
An anonymous reader writes The debate over Internet governance for much of the past decade has often come down to a battle between ICANN and the United Nations. The reality has always been far more complicated. The U.S. still maintains contractual control over ICANN, while all governments exert considerable power within the ICANN model through the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC). Now governments are looking for even more power, seeking a near-complete veto power of ICANN decisions.
An anonymous reader writes Julian Assange has hosted a press conference in which he indicated he is soon about to leave the embassy of Ecuador in London. From the article: "WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who has spent over two years in Ecuador's London embassy to avoid a sex crimes inquiry in Sweden, said on Monday he planned to leave the building 'soon', but Britain signaled it would still arrest him if he tried. Assange made the surprise assertion during a news conference alongside Ecuador's Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino. But his spokesman played down the chances of an imminent departure, saying the British government would first need to revise its position and let him leave without arrest, something it has repeatedly refused to do.
Rick Zeman writes Wired has an interesting article on the possibility of selectable ethical choices in robotic autonomous cars. From the article: "The way this would work is one customer may set the car (which he paid for) to jealously value his life over all others; another user may prefer that the car values all lives the same and minimizes harm overall; yet another may want to minimize legal liability and costs for herself; and other settings are possible. Philosophically, this opens up an interesting debate about the oft-clashing ideas of morality vs. liability." Meanwhile, others are thinking about the potential large scale damage a robot car could do.
Lasrick writes Patrick Lin writes about a recent FBI report that warns of the use of robot cars as terrorist and criminal threats, calling the use of weaponized robot cars "game changing." Lin explores the many ways in which robot cars could be exploited for nefarious purposes, including the fear that they could help terrorist organizations based in the Middle East carry out attacks on US soil. "And earlier this year, jihadists were calling for more car bombs in America. Thus, popular concerns about car bombs seem all too real." But Lin isn't too worried about these threats, and points out that there are far easier ways for terrorists to wreak havoc in the US.
An anonymous reader writes "The former CEO of Redflex, a major red light camera vendor, and John Bills, former Managing Deputy Commissioner at the Department of Transportation, have been indicted on federal corruption charges stemming from a contract with the City of Chicago. According to the indictment, a friend of Bills was hired as a contractor and paid $2 million. Much of that money was then kicked back to Bills, who also got a Mercedes and a condominium via Redflex employees. The defendants are facing 23 counts including: mail fraud, wire fraud, and bribery. Each fraud count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years."
An anonymous reader writes The editor of a Bitcoin advocacy site believes the proliferation of altcoins (cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin) is harming Bitcoin's long-term potential as an alternative to traditional currencies. Posting at BadBitcoin.org, a site that seeks to expose online scams that target Bitcoin users, the pseudonymous ViK compares altcoins, including the Internet meme inspired Dogecoin, to a pump-and-dump scheme where developers create their own version of the Bitcoin wallet and blockchain and then "pre-mine" or generate a significant number of cryptocurrency units before the altcoin's official release. Later, when their value has risen, the pre-mined altcoins are exchanged for Bitcoin or in some cases converted directly to cash. While critics of cryptocurrencies in general might find ViK's comments about the altcoin "tulip" mania ironic, the self-confessed Bitcoin fan is nevertheless calling for an altcoin boycott: "The easiest way to stop them is to not participate. We all know that they only have one purpose, and that is to make Bitcoin for the so called developers."

Cosamin - ASU Joint Health Supplement Advanced Formula - 90 Capsules
Cosamin ASU is an advanced proprietary formulation that combines NMX1000 avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU) with Cosamin's FCHG49 glucosamine and pharmaceutical-grade TRH122 sodium chondroitin sulfate.
For over a decade, Cosamin DS has served as the premium joint health supplement on the market. By combining the exclusive ingredients found in Cosamin DS with ASU, Nutramax Laboratories, Inc. has made the best even better.
Cosamin ASU is a dual synergistic formula: its specific combination of glucosamine and sodium chondroitin sulfate have demonstrated synergy in stimulating cartilage production,1 while ASU also acts synergistically with glucosamine.
Cartilage lacks a direct blood supply. It relies on nutrients found in the joint fluid to nourish cartilage cells and maintain its structure. When this process is affected by one or more of the factors mentioned above, cartilage can break down to the point where it can no longer work efficiently.
Maximum Protection: 4 Capsules Per Day
Maintenance: (Once desired effect is noticed) Gradually reduce the number of capsules to maintain comfort level.

Typically, Baseball Prospectus absolutely kills transaction analyses … and R.J. Anderson's take on the big Reds-Padres is no exception. His big finish on San Diego's side of the equation:
If nothing else, the Padres' farm system—which already featured nine four-star prospects—just added some additional talent. Things might not be pretty for the major league team in 2012, but San Diego could come to mean "loaded" in German from 2013 onward.
As always, we might be too bullish on the young team's short-term prospects. The Padres won't be good in 2012 and they probably won't be real good in 2013, either. But they are loaded with young talent and, considering their competition, I do expect San Diego to be in the thick of the pennant race in 2014 or '15. Which might seem like a long ways off if you're a fan, but otherwise will pass in the snap of your fingers.

We followed the directions to Terminal 2 parking (which is where you park for the RiverWalk Mall) located in your cruise book. That parking lot has NO SECURITY or FENCING. I DON'T ADVISE PARKING THERE. When we called RCCL, they could tell us if there was another parking garage (very disappointing) so we drove around for an hour. Take my advise and park in the new parking garage ($97) off of Julia St., to the right of the port and convention center. You'll be happy you read my advise because someone's car was broken into in the other parking lot. BUT before you drop your car off, you have to drive up and drop your luggage off at the terminal. I was very angry at the point because the previous year, when you parked there was a parking attendant to take your bags for you. Then, you just hopped on a bus and they took you to the terminal. NO ONE informed us that it had changed. SO, after we dropped off the luggage and parked the car, we walked about 2 blocks to the terminal to check in. Before leaving Clear Lake, we completed the online check-in process and printed out our Set Sail passes. I highly advise doing this because it will make the check-in process go faster. Another aspect that cost me was the fact that RCCL told me I HAD TO HAVE a passport, but when I got there and $100 later, I find out I don't until 2008. Next, once on board we proceeded to our cabins: third floor, interior room. The rooms were a lot smaller compared to my last cruise on Carnival Conquest. The service was excellent and I always enjoy the towel animals!! Only had a few problems with remote and safe not working, but they fixed it right a way.
FOOD: the food was excellent in the dining room. The service was great and the entertainment was hilarious. I have no complaints about the dining room. The Windjammer was good, but nothing compared to the dining room. I ate there for breakfast and once for dinner. It's a buffet so there wasn't much service. The Solarium was interesting. I only ate there after our long night in Cozumel (I'll get to that), but when you are exhausted from drinking and dancing, food is food.
GRAND Cayman This was my third time to the Cayman islands. My parents have been on the Tour of Cayman and Seven Mile Beach Break. They went to hell (the town) and the turtle farm. They said it was okay but very long. My boyfriend and I went shopping in town (VERY EXPENSIVE) and of course MARGARITAVILLE. It's fun for all adults (have to be 18). The margaritas were $12 and the shots were $10. We actually ran out of money. There is a slide and pool inside the rest./bar. The d.j. and games they play are a little sexual, but all in good fun. After that we took a taxi ($4 a person one way) to Seven Mile Beach where we laid out for a few hours. Definitely worth seeing! Later, we went PARASAILING!!! I got a little sea sick because the water was rough, but we had a blast. You can see the entire island from 450 ft in the air. COSTA MAYA We did not get to dock there because the water and waves were too rough. We actually had like hurricane winds. That was a bummer! We spent that day on the ship inside gambling and sleeping. The cruise staff was not prepared for that to happen and did not compensate AT ALL for it. There was nothing really to do during the day ( since we were supposed to be in Mexico), but they did refund our excursions for Costa Maya.
COZUMEL (at night) Since we didn't dock in Costa Maya, we continued that day to Cozumel. We ended up docking there around 6pm. I was actually excited about that because I had never been to Cozumel at night. They let us stay there from 6pm to 5 pm the next night. If this happens to you, take advantage of Carlos and Charlie's. CHEAP MARGARITAS, FREE SHOTS, GREAT music from every era, and FUN STAFF. I bet you can guess what we all did that night. BE AWARE of the TEQUILA Congo Lines , and if you don't like to get your boobs grabbed by random ladies (most don't), don't take a shot from the shot lady with the whistle.
COZUMEL (next day) After a long night, we woke up at 8 am to get breakfast, then tender to the island. We took a taxi to Playa Mia Beach Break -- $15 for the taxi ride one way, the taxi drivers cruise at about 90 mph (YIKES). Playa Mia was beautiful!! There were so many activities going on like paddle boats, volleyball, swimming in the pool or ocean, water trampoline, kayaks, and so much more. We laid out for two hours and then did the paddle boats. If you're a beach person, definitely go to Playa Mia. The only complaint I have is the cost of the taxi ride. We ended up spending about $30 to get around. We went shopping in Punta Langosta after the beach. Bargaining is fun and if you are into fashion, check out Tara Moss (jewelry store). She is an up and coming designer from Mexico and the prices aren't too bad.
OVERALL- It was the least amount of fun I've had cruising. There wasn't enough to do and the (ship) size does matter. I don't advise anyone to go in January. I went in August for my other cruises, which was awesome, but also hurricane season. I think I'll try May next time.

Far West Chelsea Has a New Sandwich Competitor: Rocket Pig
Back in 1996, when most contemporary art dealers were operating out of Soho, David Zwirner told New York magazine that, for the newly ascendent Chelsea neighborhood to become a viable art destination, "you should be able to get a decent meal." Plenty of strong restaurants have since filled that void—Cookshop, Izakaya Ten, Co. and the whole Tía Pol group, to name a few.
But for art pilgrims and neighborhood workers looking for a quick, delicious grab-and-go lunch, the offerings have remained paltry, with Bottino's to-go spot one of the rare beacons of light. Read More

Emotions ran high Friday at Steen's Creek Elementary School in Florence during an awards ceremony. A kindergarten student received a special award from a very special guest and she was not the only one surprised by this familiar face.
Six year old Nyla Myers was so excited to see her family sitting in the back of the classroom right before she was about to be awarded student of the month. Everyone sat patiently waiting, except her father. Master Sergeant Kevin Myers has been deployed overseas since January.
Steen's Creek Elementary School teacher said, "So, we want to give you something for being student of the month. We have a certificate and trophy and we have somebody that we want to give it to you, okay?
Master Sgt.Kevin Myers said, "She didn't know I was coming home. I actually came home a little early and it gave me the opportunity to give her a big surprise," said Master Sgt. Kevin Myers. "So, today was the day daddy came home. I thought about this the last day and a half of how it would feel to re-unite with my family and be with them again. A lot of emotions run through your mind and your body and you try to hold it together."
Nyla said she couldn't believe her father was actually home.
"It means so much," said Nyla. "I love my daddy, because I really wanted him to come back home."
Not only was Nyla surprised, Master Sergeant Kevin Myers who served in Afghanistan for six months with the MS Air National Guard also surprised his mother and grandmother.
"Words can't express what I was feeling. I was just so rejoiced to see him," said Myers' grandmother.
"I know how much his kids mean to him and this was the best thing I could have done for him because this meant the world to him and our kids," said Charisse Myers.
Kevin's wife and father found out several days ago he would be coming home, and decided to surprise the entire family.

In another month, Knights Castle will be empty. The minor league club will pack it in for the winter and open up a new, shiny stadium on the outskirts of uptown Charlotte next year.
When the bulldozers come knocking down the castle gates, moist mustard will still be clinging to the concrete steps. Contrast the speed at which the stadium will be razed to that of the continuing delay for the PTL tower to come down.
The Cato Corporation plans to send an arsenal of wrecking balls soon after the umpire calls a player out for the final time. Before too long, a distribution center and possibly a business park will sprout up with faint voices of "Get yer popcorn here" still lingering in the air.
Meanwhile, Rick Joyner and Morningstar Ministries will be using their own arsenal to delay the tearing down of the decrepit tower on the old Heritage USA site. That bag of tricks includes the umpteen motions to request more time to raise funds. It includes the threatening of bogus lawsuits claiming the county disseminated false information that hurt their ability to fix the tower, and it includes claiming there are hundreds of people ready to make York County's most infamous eyesore their retirement dream home.
In March 2012, Morningstar said it was ready to at least give the impression it was repairing the tower by working on the façade and replacing bricks. The real façade turned out to be that empty promise. Another one in a long line of empty promises. The whole charade has carried on for so long that one can only laugh at this point.
When a bustling baseball stadium can be flattened and transformed into something different in the blink of an eye, it is like Morningstar has turned into Rip Van Winkle.
I'm about ready to take on the "if you can beat them, join them" approach. I dreamed last week that the tower came down. It was a really vibrant dream, and a guy with a white robe and halo was delivering the message. I'm half-inclined to call it a prophecy. I mean, doesn't Joyner have dreams and call them that?
I'll even be more realistic and not make some half-brained comment that the power of prayer can regrow limbs on non-reptiles. I'll even make you a better deal. I won't gather a group of people together, relate my dreams and pass them off as being supernatural. I won't ask you to hear my stories and then ply you for donations.
I just have one teeny-tiny little request: That the tower either come down or be renovated, preferably in my lifetime. Is that really so hard to accommodate?
Apparently so.
Reach Scott at firstname.lastname@example.com for vivid details of his prophecy.

Now that the proverbial fat lady has sung, BiE goes through 10 names European basketball and NBA fans might want to keep track of in the medium-term future – some of these guys are certainly destined for international stardom before decade's end. Please note that the following are not necessarily the best players in the tournament, but rather those who BiE believes have the most upside or could simply surprise those not in-the-know once they've risen to the next level.
BiE's "Who's Who" from the 2012 NIJT includes the following.
