Anthropomorphism (from the Greek anthrôpos, for human, and morphé, for shape) is the tendency for people to think of other animals or inanimate objects as having human-like characteristics. If you have ever named your car, talked to your computer or begged your printer to work, you are guilty of assigning anthropomorphic characteristics to a machine. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has progressed to the point that computers can learn from their mistakes so that they do not make a specific error more than once. The ability to self-correct, combined with the ability programmers have to enable speech synthesizers to produce responses that seem emotional, makes robots and other interactive devices seem more human-like than ever.

Today's Horoscope by Rick Levine
You may be very productive today, but your current accomplishments are more creative than practical. Everything you touch now has the potential of turning into an artistic masterpiece. Although this could be lots of fun, you must be careful not to spread your energy too thin or you will end up more frustrated than fulfilled. Each potential project has an advantage and a disadvantage. Make sure you explore both before jumping in with both feet.

The lone first-timer in
the field of six 2-year-old fillies, Fashion Alert was quickly sent to
the front from the outside post by Hall of Fame jockey John Velazquez,
setting an opening quarter-mile fraction of 22.37 seconds with Lindy and
Awesomendensome in pursuit. Shaking free of those two on the turn,
Fashion Alert spun into the stretch with a four-length lead and was
never challenged as she cruised under the wire in 1:04.01 for 5 ½
"She broke to the inside
and after three jumps she got into a nice rhythm and sat out in the
middle of the track for a while," said Velazquez. "It was pretty easy. I
sat on the outside and rushed her a little bit just to make sure those
horses didn't get away, but she was going so easy I just let her do it."
Fashion Alert, the
second choice at 9-5, returned $5.70 for a $2 win wager and earned
$60,000 for owner George Bolton, who paid $125,000 for the Old Fashioned
filly last September at Keeneland.
"I thought she did
everything we hoped she would do," said trainer Todd Pletcher, who
notched his fourth victory in the Astoria. "She got away pretty alertly
and put herself in good position. It was an advantage to have the
outside post, which we were happy about when the draw came out. She's a
very talented filly that ran to her training."
Pletcher, who is 2-0-1
with his juveniles at Belmont Park this spring, said the Grade 3,
$100,000 Schuylerville on July 18 at Saratoga Race Course likely would
be the next spot for Fashion Alert.
Liatris, the narrow
favorite, closed to finish second, with Lindy another 2 ½ lengths back
in third. Dads Little Girls checked in fourth, followed by Julie's Indy
and Awesomendensome.

What kind of mom encourages her toddler to beat up another child? (VIDEO)
I hate it when my children fight and I hate it even more when they hit each other. I know all siblings fight, but I've never liked it and I never will. And I definitely would NEVER, ever encourage them to get into a fistfight. That's why I was enraged after I watch a very disturbing video of two toddler girls beating the crap out of each other while the mother of one of them not only eggs them on, but also gets the whole fist fight on video.
If you haven't seen it yet, I must warn you: it's very difficult to watch. Besides the wailing, which is already heartbreaking enough, it's not easy to watch a little girl in diapers beating up another little girl and none of the adults (at least two can be heard in the background) doing anything about it. What is the world coming to?
Read more in ¿Qué más?: Daycare teacher tormets 3-year-old, gets it on video (VIDEO)
The mom who got the video of the fight was stupid enough to post it to her Facebook page. Why would she do that? I guess she wanted to tell the world that she's a horrible mother who thinks it's funny to teach two toddlers that violence and cruelty are perfectly acceptable. WTH?
I'm so happy that an acquaintance of this woman felt it necessary to share the video with a local television station and that they in turn sent it to Missouri's Department of Social Services. That's one gutsy woman right there, but I'm with her when she says that "it's just sickening and I feel like there should be some kind of criminal action taken."
Want to connect with other moms? Like us on Facebook!
Although that remains to be seen, anyone who watches the troubling video would agree that this woman needs some parenting lessons. To be honest, what worries me the most is that if she's capable of egging two little kids to fight, what else is she capable of doing to them?
What do you think of this video? How should this mother be punished? Let us know what you think by leaving us a comment.

Australia's Chris Rogers refused to blame a restless friend for missing out on what would have been a maiden Test hundred at Old Trafford on Thursday. The 35-year-old opener batted impressively after Australia captain Michael Clarke won the toss on the first day of the third Ashes Test and was in sight of a cherished century when he was lbw to England off-spinner Graeme Swann for 84. But the day's play was repeatedly held up by movement behind the bowler's arm at the Pavilion End. This was the first Test in the Manchester ground's 129-year history to be played on a pitch facing north-south rather than east-west. That meant members in the Pavilion were now behind the arm for half of the day's play. However, it was not one of the locals who made the fateful movement behind Swann's arm when Rogers was 16 shy of a century but Daniel Salpietro, a team-mate of the left-hander at Melbourne grade club Prahran. Afterwards the 25-year-old off-spinning all-rounder, who played one Twenty20 'Big Bash' match for Victoria in the 2010/11 season, took to Twitter to insist he'd merely been trying to get another spectator to sit down. After stumps Rogers, asked if Salpietro had contributed to his missing out on a Test century, replied: "No, not really. These things crop up every now and again. I'll make a phone call because I know the guy who was up there. I'm not going to blame him -- I think -- much." Before this series, Rogers spent five years in the international wilderness after making his Test debut in 2008. Australia's top-order batting problems have been a key reason why they came into this match having lost their last six Tests, a run that has seen them fall 2-0 behind against Ashes-holders England with three to play. But Rogers rose to the challenge after Clarke won the toss Thursday. His innings laid the platform for an Australia first day total of 303 for three, with Clarke making 125 not out and Steven Smith unbeaten on 70. Rogers, belying his reputation as a stonewaller, scored briskly facing 114 balls with 14 fours. "I wanted to show people that I can play an innings like that -- I'm not just a guy who will try to eat up time. So I felt a lot better today (Thursday) and had a positive mindset and fortunately it worked." Apart from his 52 in the second innings of the first Test at Trent Bridge, Rogers had been struggling for runs against England prior to Thursday's effort and he accepted his international career had been on the line. "In some respects, yeah. My performances haven't been anything to write home about. I knew if I had a bad Test I would be under pressure."

After a motorcycle accident in California, you may have the ability to claim certain damages in a lawsuit, especially if the other driver caused the crash -- perhaps by turning left in front of your bike, for example. It is very important that you know what damages you can claim and when you have a legal right to do so, as this can have serious financial implications.
First of all, you may want to claim compensation for medical bills associated with your injuries. Common injuries include the following:

The first module in the project was the "ePrescribing application"; certified by RxHub and SureScripts back in 2007. New implementation needs to "re-certify" with SureScripts (which should not be much of a problem) Work on eLabs (using ELINCS, LOINC etc.) is being considered as participants join the project become available.

Nelsen, Reid available for Christchurch match
Relevant offers
All Whites captain Ryan Nelsen will have his Christchurch homecoming game against Tahiti next Tuesday after all, and Winston Reid will be there, too.
The two English Premier League defenders are on a plane out of Heathrow and scheduled to touch down in Auckland at 2pm tomorrow.
However, both players, who had remained in London to have scans on their respective injuries, will not feature in the World Cup qualifier against Tahiti in Papeete on Saturday night (NZT).
Logistically, they could make it to the Tahitian capital in time for the match, but coach Ricki Herbert is happy to let them remain in Auckland and get themselves ready for Tuesday's match at AMI Stadium, against the same opposition.
While the Christchurch match now won't be Nelsen's 50th A-international for the All Whites, it is still good news for the city which has used the local hero to promote the fixture.
Posters of the Nelsen have been adorning city billboards, promoting the captain's first international in his hometown.
Nelsen, the Queen's Park Rangers centreback, required scans on a knee injury while West Ham defender Reid suffered from back spasms at the weekend and required assessment from the club's medical staff before he could be released.
1982 World Cup heroes Steve Sumner, Steve Woodin and Bobby Almond, are to be presented with special blazers at AMI Stadium on the same night Nelsen was due to doff the cap commemorating his 50th game.
Contrast his career to two great contemporaries, Richie McCaw and Dan Carter. The All Black superstars have played plenty of home tests in Christchurch.
But the All Whites rarely play in New Zealand. The logistics and cost of assembling their team mean most of their friendly internationals are staged overseas, in Europe, Asia or North America.
The All Whites last played in Christchurch against Malaysia in 2006 while Nelsen was taking time out from international football to focus on establishing his English premier league career.
Six months ago most New Zealand football fans would have been relaxed about the All Whites beating Oceania opposition without Reid and Nelsen.
But not since the Honiara Horror Show where the All Whites were upset by New Caledonia in the Oceania Nations Cup to miss a berth in the lucrative Fifa Confederations Cup finals.
Hence Herbert will be understandably anxious about tackling Tahiti without his premier league personnel.
The All Whites exude more confidence with the London-based defenders in their rearguard. Nelsen's presence, in particular, is akin to having a coach on the pitch.

BEIJING, March 23. /ITAR-TASS/. China's yuan (renminbi) may become a third reserve currency in the world in the future, Managing Director and Chief Economist of investment company Sberbank CIB Yevgeny Gavrilenkov said at the 15th governmental Chinese economic development forum in the Chinese capital on Sunday.
"This forecast can be made on figures of domestic economic growth. Probably the country will keep high GDP growth rate and the GDP volume will increase to around 14-16 trillion U.S. dollars for a brief period of time, the indicators comparable to the European Union and the United States. Meanwhile, Chinese securities are more attractable for the countries that have a surplus in economy, particularly the Middle East states, and China will obviously follow the path of securing the country's assets," the expert noted.
The forum which opened in the Chinese capital on March 22 discusses a broad range of issues of economic reforms and China's stronger role as the second largest world economy. First Deputy Prime Minister of the Chinese State Council Zhang Gaoli, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund Christine Lagarde and top managers of major world corporations participate in the forum as honorary guests.

Jacob S. passed a background check on 12/22/13. The check was ordered by another user through First Advantage. For more information, please review the background check information page.
After sending a message to Jacob, you will be able to order a new background check for $7.99. As part of your tutor selection process, we encourage you to run updated background checks. Please also review the safety tips for hiring tutors.
I provide professional, individualized, and student-paced instruction that is time efficient and yields results, guaranteed. If your student does not improve their SAT score by 200-400 points, I will provide instruction free of charge until the results are realized--nobody else in the industry gets higher score improvements than I do. I'm also an expert in AP test strategy in Chemistry, Biology and Environmental Science. Don't waste time and money on low quality instruction. One on one tutoring is by far the most effective form of instruction, and my expertise will open doors for your student: according to Stanford University, a teacher in the 90th percentile can create an additional 1 million dollars in lifetime earnings for their students!
My career in education began in high school: as a member of the National Honors Society, I would volunteer my tutoring services to my peers and I received an award for my volunteer tutoring at Greenmont Avenue Elementary School in Dracut. In college, I began private tutoring for tuition money. When I graduated Suma Cum Laude from the University of Massachusetts as a Bachelor of Science in Biology, I used my expertise in education first at Granby High School in Norfolk, Virginia and later on a Enterprise Academy in Newport News, Virginia. My 2 years of experience in inner-city public schools solidified my preconception that large class sizes waste time and money. Fed up with the ineffectiveness and bureaucracy of the public school system, I pursued my masters of science at Virginia Tech and again graduated with distinction. When I moved to California, I was determined to craft my own educational program for one on one tutoring that would be high yield and time efficient. I worked for one of the largest private tutoring companies in the bay area for the last 5 years, helping thousands of students navigate the standardized testing gauntlet.
I have worked with thousands of students to help them identify the most most common errors on the exam. My scores are perfect every time and your student's can be too. I'm a credentialed teacher with 10 years of experience. I have a Master's degree in Life Sciences and I have studied the exam rigorously over the years to become an expert in the field. My average score improvement is 4 points on the ACT--some students score as much as 8 to 10 points higher!
I've studies all the exams released by the SAT to find out exactly how they cause your student to make mistakes. Thousands of students have worked with me and I've studied their mistakes and why they make the errors they do. I put those two components together to help your student quickly identify his or her most common errors and NEVER make them again.
The reading test is a very personal test. You're student's reading speed really dictates which strategy will produce the best possible score. I assess your student's strengths and weaknesses and help them develop a strategy that produces the highest accuracy. This is not a one size fits all approach. I've developed over a dozen personalized strategies to maximizing scores in the reading portion of the test and I'll help your students improve quickly and gain confidence.
I have a bachelor's degree in Biology and a Master's degree in Agriculture. Over the years, I've taught Chemistry, Environmental Science, Biology, Oceanography, and Marine Biology to high school students in both public and private schools. I'm an expert at interpreting graphs and charts and I can help your student to hone their skills on the ACT science section. I guarantee an improvement of 3-5 points!
I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Massachusetts with a Bachelors in Biology and I graduated again with distinction from Virginia Tech with a Master's in Agriculture and Life Sciences. I taught high school science in the public schools for years and was a lead teacher. I've studied the AP exams rigorously over the years to become a test expert.
The PSAT is exactly half the full SAT without the essay. It takes students 1.5 hours to complete the 2 critical reading sections, 2 math sections and one grammar section. I've developed a way to help sophomore and juniors finish each section on time, with less test fatigue. With my help, your student could score over 2150, allowing them to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship. I've had 4 students go on to win this prestigious award.
I have worked with thousands of students to help them identify the most most common errors on the exam. My scores are perfect every time and your student's can be too. I'm a credentialed teacher with 10 years of experience. I have a Master's degree in Life Sciences and I have studied the exam rigorously over the years to become an expert in the field. My average score improvement is 256 points on the SAT--some students score as much as 400 points higher!
Over the past 10 years, I have read every essay that the SAT has released. I have identified 3 critical tricks that are used in the answer choices to confuse students. In addition, I've developed a way to help every student finish the test on time, every time. The critical reading timing is essential and that is where most students suffer the most damage to their score.
I have studied the SAT intensely over the last 10 years, developing a program to help students overcome the difficulties of the SAT writing test. There are just 5 major errors that I have identified. I'll help your student to become systematic about identifying these errors so they never miss!
The SSAT test designers modeled the exam after the SAT, but with a level of difficulty aimed at 8-11th graders. I've taken all of the SAT and SSAT exams released to the public and identified the most common errors and the most commonly misunderstood content. Therefore, I can help you student identify quickly exactly what errors their making and lay out the content efficiently so they never make those mistakes again.
I have identified the 500 essential vocabulary terms that will help your student to master the SAT. What's more, I've created an easy way for your student to add vocabulary quickly, and I help them to identify the correct strategy to use. The guessing strategy and timing strategy that is appropriate for your student on the vocabulary can change dramatically based on their reading speed on the passages. I help students identify which strategy is right for them and how to get their highest possible score.

Place of Birth
Earlier in the week, it was revealed that Alberto Del Rio was going to be signing with two different wrestling promotions at the beginning of 2015. Reports have surfaced that one of those companies will be TNA. Del Rio is said to be adamant about being able to work in Mexico again, and TNA provides a bit more freedom than the bigger corporation up north. The belief is that the announcement can be made as soon as January.
November 18, 2014
Now that he is free and clear of his contact with WWE, Alberto Del Rio has announced that he will be signing deals with two promotions in January. The former world heavyweight champion hinted that both companies have television deals. The belief is that one of those deals will enable him to work Lucha Underground and AAA. The second deal is still a mystery, but it could be TNA or Global Force Wrestling.
November 17, 2014
During interviews, Kurt Angle has repeatedly stated that he wants to do one final year before retiring from professional wrestling. However, word is now coming out that the former world heavyweight champion is open to signing a contract that stretches out to 18 months since it would be a part time deal. Angle wants to focus on building a career in Hollywood, and he knows that he still needs the exposure from wrestling to help make that happen.
November 1, 2014
Through social media, Gene Snitsky has expressed his dissatisfaction with TNA for not bringing him on board full time. He did a couple of segments on Impact Wrestling this summer, but management has opted to remain fiscally responsible, as they are still trying to secure a new television contract. The company is expected to start signing wrestlers are that happens.
October 19, 2014
Reports have surfaced that TNA will announce their new television deal before the end of October. It is being said that Dixie Carter has informed business partners that an announcement is coming soon, in hopes of alleviating some of the concerns that they currently have with Impact Wrestling. Still no word yet on which network the company will be signing on with, though.
October 17, 2014
Back in June, Brodus Clay was given a release by WWE, so he informed his fans that his professional wrestling career was far from over. After exploring his options in Japan, the former bodyguard for Snoop Dogg decided to remain stateside by signing with TNA. He made his television debut for the company this week on Impact Wrestling by aligning himself with Ethan Carter and defeating Shark Boy in a match.
October 16, 2014
Earlier this month, Nick Dinsmore was given a release by WWE after the company refused to sign him to a new contract as a trainer. During a recent interview, he hinted on a return as an in ring performer. Dinsmore did not specify which company he would be signing with, but he did state that it was one of the highest profile wrestling companies in the world.
October 13, 2014
During Bound For Glory 2014, Bully Ray and Devon specifically mentioned the Bullet Club, a stable in New Japan. That is of interest because the pay per view was promoted by Great Muta and Wrestle-1. This has led to speculation that Team 3D may end up signing with Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling because the company has a partnership with New Japan.
October 12, 2014
Rumors spread rather quickly this week about Josh Mathews joining TNA when pictures of the announcer leaving the company headquarters appeared online. While no official confirmation has been made on the signing, the belief is that a contract has already been reached. While there is still a slight chance that he might be wrestling for the company, the widespread belief is that he is coming in as an announcer.
September 25, 2014
There was a lot of hype behind the signing of Prince Devitt, so WWE wants to figure out a good way to introduce the international star to their fan base. Reports have surfaced that the company is thinking about utilizing him in the tag team division to start. The two names that have been toss around as potential partners are Sami Zayn and the newly signed Kevin Steen.
September 19, 2014
While reports are saying that their contract with Spike TV is expiring at the end of the year, executives in TNA are still making moves as if they are definitely going to remain on television. The company has now booked the Manhattan Center in New York City for three more episodes of Impact Wrestling. It appears that Dixie Carter is extremely confident that they will be signing a deal somewhere.
September 15, 2014
"Well right now I'm not at liberty to say where I'm going but I will tell you I'm going to do the right thing for me and my family. I am in the process of structuring a deal and I do have a company in mind. I haven't said yes because I want to make it a public thing with the company and myself. I can't really say who it is or where I'm going but I can tell you it's going to happen in the next two weeks before my contract is even up. I won't be wrestling until January but there will be a signing in the next couple of weeks." - Kurt Angle hinting on whether he will stay with TNA or return to WWE
September 10, 2014
As soon as Alberto Del Rio revealed to the world that WWE cannot legally prevent him from working, there was interest from several promotions across the world. The most notable one being TNA. John Gaburick reportedly contacted the former world heavyweight champion about possibly signing a contract with the company. Del Rio and Gaburick worked together in WWE.
September 4, 2014
It was a pretty big deal when WWE announced that they were inviting Michael Sam to show up on Monday Night Raw because the first openly gay player in the NFL has been generating quite a bit of publicity over the last couple of months. However, with him signing with the Dallas Cowboys, WWE has now decided to remove all mentions of the invitation, including an open letter from Stephanie McMahon, to avoid looking like they were rejected.
September 3, 2014
While WWE will continue to put the full court press on, it appears very unlikely that Michael Sam will be making an appearance on Monday Night Raw for Vince McMahon. The defensive end from Missouri University is currently in the process of signing a contract with the Dallas Cowboys after being released by the St Louis Rams. Once the deal goes through, he will more than likely be prohibited from being involved with WWE.
September 2, 2014
Since Batista is now openly talking about what retirement match he would like to do, the belief within the industry is that they would not be shocked if he were to leave WWE in the near future. The success of Guardians of the Galaxy and the signing of the sequel basically ensures that Batista will be involved with the Marvel Universe, which is really thriving now, for the next several years.
August 19, 2014
While a lot of fans have already started writing the obituary for TNA, the company is moving forward as usual. Dixie Carter has yet to secure a new television deal for Impact Wrestling, and there are rumors that Spike TV is not interested in signing a new contract, but the company continues to sign wrestlers to extensions and is actually bringing in some new ones as well.
August 3, 2014
While many fans are expecting TNA to cease operations in the near future, the company is going against the grain by signing several wrestlers to contract extensions. Today, the company announced that Zema Ion has been signed to a new multiple year deal. The belief is that the company is also hoping to lock down more performers before the year ends.
July 31, 2014
Josh Mathews might not be out of a job for too long. Rumors are floating around that TNA is very close to signing him to a contract. When he was backstage at Impact Wrestling, he did not seem like a typical visitor, as management was introducing him to people backstage. The belief is that he would be a valuable asset since he understands a lot about the production in WWE.
July 25, 2014
Over the last couple of months, there have been plenty of rumors in regards to WWE signing international star Prince Devitt to a contract. Things heated up even more when he left New Japan. Things died down a bit when no announcement was made, but it looks like the rumor mills are heating up again. Reports are surfacing that the deal has now been reached, and he should be showing up to developmental soon.
July 23, 2014
Those that watched Summerslam 2014 saw Nikki Bella doing her much rumored heel turn. She is expected to work in that role on television going forward. However, WWE did something peculiar at a live event in Sacramento over the weekend. Nikki worked as a baby face. She teamed up with Emma to defeat Alicia Fox and Layla El. The face team even attacked Rosa Mendes, who was portraying a heel character. No word yet on why WWE opted to do this.
August 24, 2014
In a sign that management might have forgiven her, Emma was not only given a match on WWE Main Event this week, but she was also given a victory over Cameron, who recently did a heel turn. Rumors floated around that the company was not going to be utilizing her on television after she was arrested for shoplifting, but it looks like WWE is attempting to avoid further attention to the incident by going about as usual.

Even though the company quickly rehired her, Emma might actually still be in hot water with WWE. The diva was not spotted backstage at Monday Night Raw or Smackdown this week. The belief is that the company has sent her home for the time being. Many believe that it will be quite some time before Emma is allowed back on television.
July 10, 2014
When she was arrested at Walmart for shoplifting last week, there was a lot of assumptions about what would happen with Emma. When WWE released her, many assumed that part of the reason was because her work visa was being pulled. However, when the company immediately brought her back on board, it is now being said that she will still be legally allowed to work in the United States.
July 7, 2014
In a very subtle manner, CM Punk took a jab at WWE for their recent handling of the Emma situation. When she was released, former writer Seth Mates posted a message on Twitter about the company being hypocritical and holding double standards. Punk added that post as a favorite on his account. The fact that Punk would do that shows that he still harbors some resentment towards WWE.
July 3, 2014
Sensing that they were going to receive quite a bit of backlash for overreacting to the arrest and having double standards for their performers, WWE has decided to reinstate Emma after giving her a release earlier in the day. Some have cited the previous arrest of Jack Swagger and Cameron, who actually attempted to bribe a police officer, as a reason why WWE was forced to change their minds.
July 2, 2014
A day after she was arrested for shoplifting, WWE has released Emma from her contract. There were those in the company that believed that she would be allowed to ride out the storm because the item stolen was not very expensive, but it turns out that Vince McMahon and company needed to make an example of her. Since she was not very high up on the card, it was easier for WWE to release her.
July 2, 2014
When news broke out that Emma was arrested for shoplifting at a Wal Mart, there were rumors all over the place that she had stolen a case for an iPad. The police department has now released some details on the situation. It was indeed a red case for an iPad Mini. The valuation of the item is just a little over $20.
July 2, 2014
In a rather interesting and disturbing bit of news, Emma was arrested at a Wal Mart in Hartford, where Monday Night Raw was being taped, yesterday. She was released from custody shortly afterwards, and some alleged details have been coming out. Rumors have it that she was caught for shoplifting, and the item is believed to be a special iPod case. WWE has issued a statement on the ordeal, stating that she is responsible for her personal actions.
July 1, 2014
One of the reasons why Santino Marella worked a segment with Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter on Monday Night Raw this week was because Emma was overseas. WWE sent the diva to her home country of Australia to do some promotional work for an upcoming tour. Management really does not have a long term plan for Santino and Emma, but they like utilizing the two of them on television together.

As is usually the case with every pay per view, you can expect WWE to do last minute additions to the Extreme Rules 2014 match card. Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Curtis Axel and Ryback are expected to get the seventh match on the card. If WWE needs another filler match, then Emma, Santino Marella, Layla El and Fandango are the top candidates for that spot.

April 24, 2014
A rather interesting scene took place during the Divas invitational match at Wrestlemania 30 last night. Cameron suffered a wardrobe malfunction, where her top came unhooked during a spot with Emma. Cameron was noticeably trying to hold on to her shirt, so that her breasts would not become exposed to WWE fans. After the spot, she went to the side and repaired the wardrobe malfunction.
April 7, 2014
In order to fill up the arena, WWE is giving away tickets to Wrestlemania 30. Santino Marella and Emma, who have been working together on Monday Night Raw over the past several weeks, were sent around New Orleans to hand them out to lucky fans. WWE is even promoting it through YouTube, in order to drum up even more excitement for the pay per view.
April 4, 2014
While some are under the impression that WWE could be dropping the Emma story line because it was not featured on Monday Night Raw, the company still has plans on pushing her. It was simply a matter of time being a factor, as the company was heavily trying to promote as much of Wrestlemania 30 as they possible could have on television.
April 4, 2014
Initially, there was a push backstage in WWE to have AJ Lee defending the belt against Naomi Knight in a straight up match, but for the sake of Total Divas, management opted to just throw as many of the girls into the match as possible. Cameron, Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Natalya Neidhart, Eva Marie, Summer Rae, Emma, Aksana, Alicia Fox, Rosa Mendes, Layla El and Tamina Snuka are now involved.
March 25, 2014
"Being in this industry isn't for everyone, that's for sure. Wrestling consumes your whole life ... for me that's fine, it's what I want, but for others not so much. Being in this industry means being at the Performance Centre five days a week, sometimes from morning until night, then doing shows on the road the other days of the week. I've only been home (to her Orlando apartment) twice a week for the whole of this year." - Emma talks about the wrestling business
March 21, 2014
During a recent interview, Emma revealed that WWE has a new rule for the developmental wrestlers. They are no longer allowed to use baby oil on television because it looks really bad in high definition. Performers have long used the substance to make themselves a bit shinier and more appealing to the audience.
March 21, 2014
Since Santino Marella was not on hand at the WWE live event in Corpus Christi, Dolph Ziggler was chosen as his replacement, teaming up with Emma to beat Fandango and Summer Rae in a mixed tag team match. No word yet on why Marella was absent, but this does not appear to be a permanent change in the story line.

Cuteness doesn't make up for the lack of an enjoyable game - we hope this only serves a short term in office. [JPN Import; Mar 2007, p.60]
The game moves painfully slow as a result, with the vast majority of your time spent watching opponents take their turns. [July 2007, p.97]
The mini-games are shallow and one-player only, each turn drags on far too long, and the sheer lack of any actual "party" elements keeps it from attaining even the basic – yet still redundant – entertainment found in the long-lived Mario Party series.

When BuzzFeed's Rosie Gray published a behind-the-scenes look at Russia Today, she probably had no idea the kind of negative pushback it would receive. After all, it's not every day you're accused of being part of a cabal of "Cold War-hungry neocons" who stage managed the resignation of a news anchor.
Until now, Gray has mostly laughed off the criticism, mocking it on Twitter. But today, for the first time, she spoke with me on the record about the accusations, dismissing them as "absurd."
"The idea that this was some kind of 'neocon' conspiracy is just ridiculous," she said. "So no, I mean, there was no conspiracy to get [former RT anchor] Liz Wahl to resign — and then to... plant a story with me..."

Actifio™, the radically simple copy data storage company, today announced significant product and service enhancements designed to make managing copy data – and transforming the underlying economics of enterprise storage – even easier. The company introduced new product and service packages, a storage industry-first "pay-per-use" utility pricing option, new deployment tools, and a suite of new features in its 5.1 software release. The enhancements are designed to ease the way for customers and channel partners to embrace Actifio's compelling economic value proposition, which propelled the company to 700 percent growth in 2012.
Today's enterprise IT infrastructure faces a tidal wave of data, coupled with the growing cost and complexity of the software tools, hardware, and personnel required to manage it. Savvy IT executives are recognizing that the driver of this exponential growth is the copy data – redundant copies of corporate data created by point tools to meet the business requirements to protect, share, and analyze information. With a purpose-built solution to address the root cause of the copy data problem – siloed data protection and availability applications - Actifio offers customers the ability to recover anything instantly for a total cost of ownership up to 90 percent less than the traditional model.
Easy to buy: Simplified Packaging & Pricing
To make it easier for channel partners and customers to embrace the Actifio model, the company today announced its new 100T product package. The new Actifio 100T is designed for rapid deployment by mid-sized IT organizations, or departments of larger IT organizations. It protects both physical and virtual IT environments with the world's most efficient data management technology, and features integrated Actifio Optimized Storage capable of protecting up to 100 Terabytes of production data and 1,000 virtual machines. Actifio 100Ts can be combined in a scale-out architecture to support up to 2 PetaBytes of production data, with custom configuration of the appliance.
To help customers take better advantage of their existing storage, the company also announced its new Actifio Gateway, a similarly robust hardware and software tandem that doesn't include its own storage, but instead can virtualize and manage a wide variety of third party storage devices. The Actifio Gateway is designed for regionally and globally distributed enterprises, including cloud and managed service providers. It's built for a large mix of physical, virtual, and heterogeneous server and storage infrastructure, and also scales to handle multi-petabytes of data.
Easy to approve: Utility Pricing Model Option
Actifio's revolutionary new utility pricing model enables customers to pay as their data volumes grow, avoiding the significant up-front capital requirements that challenge many procurement cycles. Actifio's all-inclusive utility pricing for a complete storage system – hardware, software, storage, installation, and maintenance – is based on a per-terabyte per-year basis, with rates decreasing as volumes increase. For CIOs implementing chargeback models, or Service Providers looking to align procurement with market demand, Actifio's utility pricing model delivers simplicity, flexibility, and predictability. Customers who wish to purchase the hardware and services through traditional means will still have that option.
Easy to deploy: Wizard Slashes Setup Time Up To 80 Percent
The 5.1 version of Actifio's revolutionary copy data storage system also includes new configuration wizards that slash deployment cycles by as much as 80% over its last generation models.
Easy to use: New Software Functionality
Actifio is also introducing version 5.1 of its software, which includes several new features in the areas of data governance, business resilience, and service management. As enterprise environments put a greater focus on security and control of application data, Actifio has ramped-up its data governance features to include SLA-based data integrity validation; enhanced SLA compliance reporting; user/role-based auditing; LDAP and Active Directory integration; and automated disk-to tape enhancements directly integrated into Actifio's SLA Lifecycle Manager for compliance-oriented, long-term retention.
The company has expanded the near-instant data access capabilities of its copy data storage platform with three new capabilities:
- Bare Metal Restore to allow for rapid recovery and rebuild of Windows and Linux servers, including to dissimilar hardware
- Test Failover to allow for non-disruptive disaster recovery tests as often as needed
- FailBack and SyncBack help to resume normal operations after a disaster by only moving uniquely changed application data from the disaster recovery site back to the primary site, once it's ready to resume operations
Service providers around the globe have embraced Actifio as a strategic technology to accelerate new service introduction, deliver new functionality and customer satisfaction, and improve their business margins. Actifio 5.1 continues to advance service management functionality by addressing operations and delivery needs with enhanced system monitoring, alert correlation and processing, auto-updates, VPN access enhancements, and improved integrated reporting.
Leading storage analyst firm, ESG has independently validated that Actifio 5.1 can provide almost 300 percent IT efficiency savings over the competition, and a 400 percent better annual total cost of ownership (TCO) than alternative storage solutions.
"In a world that moves faster than ever, enterprises faces what we call 'The Agility Imperative,'" said Actifio Founder & CEO Ash Ashutosh. "Actifio was designed from the start to free businesses from the undue burden of wildly redundant copy data, free IT executives from the complex tangle of data protection and availability applications consuming more and more of their IT budgets, and free IT managers from the stress of unmet SLA's and recovery time objectives impossible to deliver with 20th century technology. These enhancements take us further down that path, making radically simple copy data storage easier to buy, deploy, and love than ever before."
Real World Impact: What Customers are Saying
"We deployed the 100T and within fifteen minutes Actifio was configured and online. An hour later it was customized to our environment, backing up, deduplicating and replicating to our DR facility 3000 miles away," said Daniel Acosta, IT Director, MC Assembly. "If something goes wrong, now I just go back in time and mount the snapshot directly from Actifio. To our users it looks like a server reboot, to us it's the ultimate peace of mind."
"Technology is an invaluable learning tool here at the university, which means that I need to plan for maximum uptime and availability. In the past this meant frequent data protection and business resiliency testing that required planning, application downtime and costly excess infrastructure which ultimately impacted our users," said Rich Siedzik, Sr. IT Director, Bryant University. "That was before Actifio where we now have the ability to run Failover Test non-disruptively as often as needed. And if there's a site failure, I can easily and automatically sync back our unique data."
Analysts' Take: Data Explosion and the Actifio Solution
"For a long time the storage industry has focused heavily on primary production storage, not realizing that the cost of "copy" storage has been growing exponentially to the point where it costs more than primary storage. Moreover, it certainly is a pain to manage and grow. Actifio's microscopic focus on relieving pressure on this "copy" storage (which, by the way, includes backup, restore, snapshots, replication and more) may not appear so but it is indeed a paradigm shift. With the new release, Actifio has simplified the delivery for all customers and enhanced its appeal for service providers."
"The challenges associated with large volumes of unmanaged data have historically focused on cost and risk. But a larger challenge is that no one department has end-to-end responsibility for the data," said Shelia Childs, Managing VP, Gartner, and Alan Dayley, Research Director, Gartner, in a report titled, "Use These Unstructured Data Management Best Practices to Manage Based on the Time Value of Data," published November 16, 2012. The report continues: "Progressive organizations are realizing that information can give the business a competitive edge if that information is well-managed and accessible in a way that optimizes its usefulness. The business inherently realizes that it cares more about some data than other data, and should fine-tune its applications and environment to address information costs, risks and, especially, value."
"Copy data is everywhere - it could start off with multiple copies of the same file, move on to multiple copies of the volume, application data, backups, test/dev, online copies for operational and disaster recovery...the list goes on," said Ashish Nadkarni, IDC Storage Research Director. "In fact in a recent IDC study, we found that nearly 75% of all data generated is copy data. Which means only 25% of all data generated is unique - everything else is copy data. That is a staggering number and exposes the tip of the iceberg of how serious this problem really is."
Forrester Research, Inc.
"Many enterprises struggle with exponential data growth, shrinking backup windows, and static budgets — which leads to the classic conundrum of how to back up more data in less time with the same amount of money," wrote report author Rachel Dines, Forrester Research Senior Analyst, Serving Infrastructure & Operations in a November, 2010 report titled "Market Overview: Enterprise-Class Backup And Recovery Software."
