JOHOR BARU: Police have detained at least two men to assist in investigations into the splashing of red paint at the house and vehicles belonging to Johor Customs Department officers.
The two, in their 30s and 40s, were picked up in the city at the end of last month and remanded for a week.
They are being investigated for intimidation and preventing a public servant from carrying out his duties.
Johor Baru OCPD Asst Comm Sulaiman Salleh said the two men were picked up to assist in the investigations but declined to elaborate.
The Star had reported that cigarette and liquor smuggling syndicates were resorting to scare tactics and threats after the department tightened security checks at both the Second Link and the Causeway here.
At least two senior assistant directors from the import and export divisions have reportedly been threatened, including the splashing of red paint at the house and vehicles of one of them.
Some officers claimed to have received death threats.
The syndicates are also said to be using "tontos" to block Customs vehicles from going after lorries carrying liquor and contraband.
Police have also set up a special task force to probe cases involving Customs officers and increased surveillance at the two main entry points from Singapore.
Meanwhile, Johor Customs scored a big success when they prevented nine attempts by syndicates to smuggle in scrap metal, liquor and cigarettes from Singapore via the checkpoints this year.
Its director Datuk Ramli Johari said the latest arrest involved four men, aged between 30 and 50, who were nabbed at around 10.50pm at the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar on March 28.
"The men tried to get through our checkpoint with four vans, each carrying between 4,000 and 8,000 undeclared cans of beer."
He added that the confiscated cans were valued at RM52,678.08 and involved unpaid import, sales and excise duty totalling RM135,264.44.

Wal-Mart expands antidiscrimination policy
BY Advocate.com Editors
July 02 2003 11:00 PM ET
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the nation's largest private employer, will now include gay men and lesbians in its antidiscrimination policy, company officials said Wednesday. Company spokesman Tom Williams said the policy will not affect benefits, which Wal-Mart does not offer to unmarried partners of any orientation, but he said sexual orientation will be added to the company's existing diversity-awareness training programs for employees.
Williams said the policy change had been considered for months and is now in effect. It is considered an internal communication and is not being publicly released. "Our continued growth requires us to be one of the more desirable employers around, so we're clearly stating our acceptance for all of our associates," Williams said. "Otherwise, we could lose many talented employees, and we don't
want that."
The change means that nine of the 10 largest Fortune 500 companies now have rules prohibiting discrimination against gay employees, according to the Human Rights Campaign, a Washington, D.C.-based gay rights group. The one exception is the ExxonMobil Corp.
According to a letter sent to the Seattle-based gay rights group Pride Foundation, Wal-Mart will work to ensure that all of its personnel decisions--including recruitment, hiring, training, and promotions--will not involve discrimination based on sexual orientation. The change was first reported by The New York Times.
The Pride Foundation prompted the move by threatening to bring a shareholders' resolution, said Zack Wright, board representative. "I think they came around and realized this is the right thing to do for all their employees," Wright said. "A large number of companies have already implemented this policy. It's not a great controversial step by any means."
It's a significant step because of the size of Wal-Mart and the number of stores it has in rural areas, Wright added. "This policy may be the only example of fair treatment for gay and lesbian people that some people ever see," he said.
Williams said the policy change "unfolded by itself" after discussions with employees and groups advocating the inclusion of gays and lesbians in antidiscrimination policies. He said the recent Supreme Court ruling was not a factor in the decision. "We want all of our associates to feel they are treated with respect and valued, with no exceptions at all," Williams said.
Wal-Mart Stores, based in Bentonville, Ark., is the world's largest retailer, with over 1.1 million domestic employees.

Understanding the woes of its customers, one Chicago-area dealership, Loeber Motors, has integrated new tools to make its online storefront a bank of knowledge for frustrated shoppers.

Traditionally, most car dealerships provide shoppers with a website where inventories, photos and a few specific details can be viewed about a particular vehicle. As a result, if a car shopper wanted to learn more about the vehicle they were interested in, other than what a standard model overview provided, they would have to venture off into the internet and sift through what may be thousands of pages from random sources. Loeber Motors takes the entire car shopping experience and streamlines it by providing model specific, competitor comparison and same-brand comparison pages available right on its website for a one-stop online car shopping experience.
Among the most popular pages for the dealership are same-brand comparisons such as the recently released Mercedes-Benz C-Class vs Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class of vehicles. These pages are quickly becoming a valuable resource for luxury car shoppers in the Chicago-area. Resources such as these are especially helpful to shoppers who are loyal towards a particular vehicle brand such as Mercedes-Benz. By comparing two vehicles of the same brand side by side, car shoppers receive unbiased information in regards to the two models being looked at, which helps display key differences that most shoppers would otherwise have a difficult time finding.
In addition, same-brand model comparison pages like the ones that Loeber Motors is publishing online provide specific model details that normally would not be included in a standard comparison overview. Loeber Motors is a certified Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and smart dealership located at 4255 West Touhy Avenue, Lincolnwood, IL 60712. To learn more about any of the vehicles or online shopping tools Loeber Motors provides, interested parties can visit the dealership online at www.loebermotors.com.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happe...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

Basildon opens its doors to the big guns
Gordon Brown follows Michael Howard into the town they call the nation's barometer
Thursday 27 March 1997
Michael Howard shook her hand and strode confidently into Time nightclub, with its glitzy entrance and tacky, flashing wall lights. The Home Secretary was holding court ostensibly to discuss the club's progressive attitude to drug control.
But, given that it was located in Basildon, traditionally the nation's political barometer and a constituency recently abandoned by David Amess, the sitting Tory MP, the suspicion that he was here to woo the electorate was irresistible.
"It is a very important area for us," he admitted. "The whole of Essex is important and I am very confident we can win here. It would be a rash person who said there is nothing that can be done."
But, with the Tories defending a majority of only 1,480 and with Mr Amess hopping over to the safer seat of Southend West, there was little conviction in Mr Howard's voice.
When it was pointed out to him that there were no Conservatives left on the local council, his response was hardly upbeat. "There is no relationship between local elections and Parliamentary elections," he said. "There are countless examples of where we have low representation on the council, but hold the Parliamentary seat."
The mood in Basildon has undoubtedly changed since the Tories swept to victory there in 1992, a victory that heralded the national success hours later. The parties know the importance of the seat - and they both intend to win it.
As if to ram home the point, Gordon Brown, the Shadow Chancellor, rode into town two hours after Mr Howard left and delivered a blistering speech on the betrayal of Basildon Man.
Reminding them of John Major's promise not to increase VAT, he said: "Within a year, that promise had been broken. Tory promise, Tory betrayal." Then he reminded them of similar broken promises on insurance contributions, mortgage tax relief ... in fact, on 22 tax rises.
"Let me tell Michael Heseltine in terms he might understand," he said. "The Tories are taxing us before breakfast, as soon as we turn the heating on, taxing us before lunch and taxing us before dinner. And before you get up the next morning, we're being taxed all over again."
The audience - including a group who had switched from Tory to Labour - lapped it up.
Geraldine Evans, 51, landlady of The Barge in Vange, was typical of the group. "I have never worked so hard for so little in all my life," she said. "What the Coservatives have done has made me very sad. People don't seem to count for much any more - there are people in Basildon earning between pounds 1.80 and pounds 2.20 an hour. I never believed anyone as moderate as myself could vote Labour. But I've looked at their policies and they're closer to my own beliefs."
Tory stock was indeed low last night as Mr Brown savaged the party's performance during his speech to supporters. He drew gasps when he broke the news of Tim Smith's resignation and went further by making fun of the sitting MP's move eastwards.
"I came here hoping to meet David Amess," he said. "There is a courtesy in the House of Commons that when you visit a constituency of a sitting Tory MP you write him a letter - but mine was returned marked `Return to sender. Gone away.' It seems David Amess is the only Tory candidate in this campaign who has moved closer to Europe ..."

Maynard Anderson
Chairman/Vice President of Sales
Twin Rivers Foods/A & F Exports
Fort Smith
Maynard AndersonMaynard Anderson left Tyson Foods Inc. five and half years ago, moved his daughter out of her bedroom, moved in a computer and co-founded Twin Rivers Foods/A&F Exports.
Today, the company has grown from having five employees in 1994 to 800, and it has sales offices in four states: Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia and South Carolina. It has two poultry processing plants in Fort Smith.
Through it all, Anderson, 37, has learned a simple rule he says guides his business.
"You do what you say you're going to do. That's what I found out in the chicken business - most people didn't. And that's one reason I didn't have any qualms about going out on my own," he says, because he knew if the company kept its commitments, the business would be successful.
Anderson is a 1980 graduate of Waldron High School, and he received a bachelor's degree in agribusiness from Arkansas Tech University in 1984. He worked 10 years for Tyson Foods.
A member of the Church of Christ, Anderson works with Cub Scouts and coaches girls and boys baseball.
"When you get too old to play it, you coach it, I guess," he says.
The company was named the Arkansas Small Business Association's Exporter of the Year.

Da Vinci Courtroom Battle Spills Into the Bookstores
They've battled in a British courtroom, and now Dan Brown and Michael Baigent are going to tangle again, Publishers Weekly reports. This time the arena is the bookstore, where the mass-market paperback version of Mr. Brown's best-selling novel "The Da Vinci Code" will make its debut on Tuesday. That happens to be the day when "The Jesus Papers," Mr. Baigent's examination of the life and crucifixion of Jesus, goes on sale.
That book's publisher, Harper San Francisco, said the date was chosen more than a year ago for its proximity to Easter, a favorable time for sales of books on religion. Anchor announced the publication date for "The Da Vinci Code" two months ago. In London, a judge is weighing a decision in a case brought against Random House U.K., the novel's British publisher, by Mr. Baigent and Richard Leigh, two of the three authors of the nonfiction book "The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" (published as "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" in the United States).

Area mega-dairy cited for pollution, permit violation
By Jim Hagerty
Online Editor
The Illinois Attorney General ended a six-month investigation of a Jo Daviess County mega-dairy last week by citing the operation with five violations.
Traditions Dairy was cited Wednesday, April 20, for discharging pollutants without a federal permit and alleged water-related violations.
The investigation centers on silage discharge Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office claims could contaminate the drinking water of the 5,000-head dairy's neighbors. The pollutants have already turned a portion of the Apple River's south fork purple, the state says.
According to the complaint, Traditions Dairy has 60 days to respond. If it fails, owners could face up to $250,000 in fines.
Traditions Dairy, near Nora, Ill., was also named in a lawsuit filed by HOMES (Helping Others Maintain Environmental Standards), and 12 other plaintiffs, three years ago. The suit is an attempt to protect family farms and the environment by curtailing the dairy's expansion.
A portion of its site has been under construction since 2008.
The dairy has USDA approval, however, is still being reviewed by the Environmental Protection Agency on the state and federal levels.
Spokesmen from Traditions Dairy could not be reached for comment.

VALHALLA, N.Y. – Residents affected by Hurricane Sandy have less than two weeks left to file an application with FEMA and the Small Business Administration.
Residents' applications for FEMA relief money or the Small Business Administration's disaster loans have until Feb. 27 to get into the system, FEMA public information officer Nate Custer said Saturday.
Custer, along with several federal assistance representatives, hosted a disaster recovery workshop Saturday in Valhalla to answer questions about the recovery process. The workshop was sparsely attended, although similar workshops in White Plains and Stony Point saw more of a crowd, Custer said.
It "could well be the case that people are satisfied and that they understand what's happening with their applications," Custer said. "But we just want to make the opportunity available for people to come in and talk."
In Westchester, FEMA has gotten more than 5,600 applications so far and processed more than $1,838,000 in disaster funds for Hurricane Sandy victims. The Small Business Administration has received approximately 4,000 applications for low-interest disaster loans.
Residents who want to learn more about Hurricane Sandy relief efforts can visit fema.gov/sandy and sba.gov.

SAN JOSE (AP) - Alex Edler and Chris Bonino scored second-period goals and Ryan Miller preserved the lead through the final second as the Vancouver Canucks beat the San Jose Sharks 3-2 on Thursday night.

By Janice Somosot | July 30, 2014 10:55 PM EST
Jennifer Lopez, also known as JLo, celebrated her 45th birthday on Thursday, July 24, 2014. Of course, she had a huge party and her wild birthday cake almost stole the spotlight from her! It's a good thing the cake is a life-size replica of JLo. The said cake also featured a lion as a nod to her zodiac sign, which is Leo. It was made by Samantha Brooks, the owner of SamiCakes Boutique in Syosset, New York. Read on to learn more about Jennifer Lopez and her wild, life-size 45th birthday cake.

Actress Jennifer Lopez delivers a speech as she attends the 85th annual League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) convention in New York, July 10, 2014.
SamiCakes Boutique posted some photos of the Jennifer Lopez life-size replica cake. Click HERE to see one of the photos from the cake maker's official Instagram account.
Brooks of SamiCakes Boutique also wrote on The Guardian's Word of Mouth blog about how she made the JLO lion cake. According to Brooks, Lopez wanted a lemon cake with coconut mousse filling. JLo's personal chef Ron Gelish immediately texted her to make the said cake. She coordinated with Sindy Mashiah, the party planner for JLo's birthday and they agreed on the cake's wild design after several sketches made by Brooks.
"After a few hours we agreed that she should be lying on the lion, wearing a sleeveless onesie," wrote Brooks on The Guardian's Word of Mouth blog.
Aside from the fondant, gum paste, modelling chocolate and Rice Krispies, Brooks also used steel pipes, PVC pipes and floor flanges to construct the wild JLo cake.
"Construction of the lion for the infamous @jlo cake ... 2 days to create this life sized piece #tmz #roar #comecorrect," posted SamiCakes Boutique on Instagram.
Brooks said that she was proud of the cake that she made for Jennifer Lopez on her 45th birthday celebration. She was also interviewed by Inside Edition about it. Click HERE to watch the video of the interview from Inside Edition.
SamiCakes Boutique also makes other cakes for weddings and other occasions.

The OB Poll: Tax credits get support
|| Print |
|Poll wrap-up
|Thursday, August 06, 2009
The results are in for our poll on the governor's support of Business Energy Tax Credits, and it looks like the majority of you think the governor is right on track for championing the program.
The tax credits are offered to those who invest in renewable energies, alternative fuels and conservation. The credit – 35 percent of the eligible project costs – can cover any costs directly related to the project, from equipment to installation. Gov. Kulongoski is a strong advocate of the program and today vetoed HB 2472, a piece of legislation that would cut down the credits. The governor believes rolling them back would hurt green-job creation, and a good amount of OB readers agreed.

100 MEEELION self-driving cars will be sold globally in 2035 – report
Re: Driverless cars
"Currently, only private cars can take you from any point A to point B, without changing conveyances."
Really - my pedal cycle does the same.
In fact a friends motorbike does the same as well...
As a cyclist I'd far rather see automated cars than driven ones - machines tend to be far more patient and predictable, as well as getting tired/distracted far less often.
As a motorist I'd rather see automated cars than driven ones - it would make life cheaper and far less stressful on the roads of today.
As a motorists who quite enjoys driving I'd therefore also want a "driver" option on my vehicle - which is available for use in appropriate locations (i.e. tracks).
Of course an automated vehicle has no inherent objection to an electric drive (and the low noise level would be appreciated by many) allowing redistribution of emissions to more appropriate locations (and preferably to nuclear/geothermal/??? plants). Infrastructure involving on-the-move charging on motorways would become much easier to justify as well.
There are many, many benefits to this technology, and as for objections about driving at night in the rain. They don't exactly use HD cameras - they use all sorts of different sensors, which allow the software to have a good, all round, picture of the surrounding area - and more importantly to know where it doesn't have a view and drive accordingly....
IT now 10 percent of world's electricity consumption, report finds

Re: Still too expensive
My nexus (with BT keyboard and USB mouse when needed) does basically everything I want. My parents have a transformer, and it does extremely well.
My wife, an author, wrote her last book (collaborating with another author) entirely on her iPad - because it's nice, light, portable, usable and with a decent editor for £9.
They are productivity devices, when you have appropriate peripherals (much like a PC needs peripherals). That they are also convenient to use without peripherals is just a bonus....
PS - for old games try DOSbox

Virgin Media hangs from traffic lights, hands out free Wi-Fi to Brummies
Limit the speed...
Frankly when in the centre of $CITY I can't see a need for a free super high speed connection - even iPlayer will run over a Mb or so IIRC.
Else if I lived in B'Ham - why would I have a fixed line, or a (virgin) broadband connection, at all?
Smartwatch makers: You need apps to beat Apple
e-ink, gps, BT/3G/WiFi
With 3G/WiFi optional (but it would replace my phone if it did that and bridging to wireless)
I don't need colour on a watch - I *do* want battery life (although frankly another daily charge isn't going to kill me), and that's where e-ink comes in.
But almost more important than anything else is that I want a device which is discreet. Even the garmin watches don't manage that...
Microsoft admits it's '18 months behind' with Windows 8 slabs
Re: What took them so long?
>> people want to be "productive at work, to be able to print and have a keyboard".
>Sounds like they've just reinvented the laptop. If you want a keyboard, the absolute worst place to put it is
>on the screen - the small, expensive and in entirely the wrong place for typing - screen.
That's what bluetooth is for...
I sit down with a tablet on a stand, pull out the BT keyboard and type away quite happily.
I can even plug in a mouse for the odd occasion I need one (think remote desktop etc).
So my "laptop" has an excellent screen, a 90% sized keyboard (that folds up nice and small) and the two aren't tied together to the point that my screen is too low and too close for comfort.
It also has an 8-12 hour battery life without the excessive cost associated with "ultra book" labels... With modern network printers there is no problem there either...
My wife, an author, has used her iPad exclusively for 6-9 months. They really are usable as productivity devices - assuming you add the correct peripherals.

Re: About OpenOffice - Display of incompetence...
Last time I was in a mixed environment OO handled the (then) latest MS Office formats better then the versions of MS Office we had on the mac or windows systems - even after installing the filters.
And I've converted a number of macro based spread sheets to libreoffice, it "just work"ed.
I don't doubt that there are some dodgy bits of VBA that won't transfer, but in most cases it's all happy.
Live or let dial - phones ain't what they used to be
Re: No correlation betwixt one and t'other
No 999 is slow - deliberately.
Only the first two are actually required (hence 9 for an outside line on most PBX systems).
The third provides time for the network to connect you and an operator to be on the line...
O3b's satellites on launch pad, ready to bring cats+porn to billions

Rather than a fibre you have a trio of dishes, then a local distribution (3G/4G/WiFi/cables???)

"Now who will buy an iPhone4 when they can get 4S or a 5?
Who buys the iPad or iPad2 when they can get a iPad(3)/retina ?"
Me on both counts, in the last few months. It helps that the price of the iPad2 and iPhone4 are significantly lower than the newer versions - yet they still do the job that my wife and I require.
The iPad is a primary computing device, no laptop/PC for the last 6 months (just bought a mac mini because the iPad can't configure an older iPod Classic.
Why would I pay significnatly more for an iPad3/retina or a 4S/5 when the 2 and 4 do the job just fine.
Similarly I'll not be throwing any more money to HTC for a while, because my >2 year old phone works just fine...

"Apple provides a link to its security updates page for "detailed information about the security content of this update," but as per usual with OS X updates, that information has yet to be posted, but will appear when Cupertinian web folks get around to it."

I just fail to see the point entirely...
Bobbies need broadband-enabled gear, insist 4G LTE fans
Streaming video
Can be useful for the emergency services, but not from "hostages" from Chase vehicles etc - the second traffic cop in a car viewing the live helicopter image of the person he is chasing might not be an absurd idea for instance.
The ability to see what officers are actually doing from base might also be useful in various situations - do we need to send more people into this burning building - yes there are three warm bodies in there, seen over the thermal imaging camera, the fireman can therefore go and get one and two others will be on their way.
You *can* do these things with voice, but you get more interesting abilities when you don't have to.
OTOH the current voice system works pretty darned well, so LTE would need to buck up it's ideas in that department!

Steve JOBS finally DEFEATS the PC - from BEYOND THE GRAVE
Post PC...
My family now live in a post PC house - we have a combination of iOS and Android devices, and they serve our needs very well. If I'm being open then I also have a Linux server (Network services, including VPN) and a FreeNAS - but those are using old hardware to do the job of an appliance.
Pages and Keynote on the iPad are a bit limited compared with their PC versions, but they still do the job well for the professional author/speaker in the family. Google docs serve personal documentation needs quite well on both sides of the OS fence.
The one thing we can't do at the moment... manage music on the iPod classic.
I'd happily pay £30 (seems to be the going rate) for a dongle to connect the iPad to the iPod and manage it's music that way (remember the FreeNAS box for central storage), but for some reason it's not an option.
Pretty much that one single requirement is going to push us into buying a PC, which will (almost certainly) be a mac mini (our first ever mac) - so I guess they have their marketing right, or rather MS have it SO badly wrong...
PS - Yes I could probably use gtkPod or equivalent, but to achieve a sustainable WAF it has to be iTunes...

Who is Samsung trying to kid? There will NEVER be a 5G network
Re: 5G WHY at All ?
I'd quite like to see it used for broadband - much easier to deploy than "better copper" or fibre...
Just pop an antenna array onto your chimney and point it at the local base station.
Also likely to get better choice of providers and more reliable service (given how bad my copper often is)
Samsung sends gigabit '5G' signal TWO WHOLE KILOMETRES
There are quite alot of these devices around.
They have power, they have elevation, they are more densely clustered in highly populated areas - cover the vast majority of "places where people are"...
Is it just me that thinks they'd make a good network for mini/micro.../atto cells - with a secondary mesh network connecting them together.
A national network of these, wholesaling out peering links (with authentication and subscriber authentication handled by the "ISP"). I know the concept of BT MkII is unattractive, but it has to beat trying to roll out 4 identical networks with high coverage...
