TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/07/13 -- Smart Employee Benefits Inc. ("SEB") (TSX VENTURE:SEB), is a technology company providing software, solutions and services specializing in "managing group benefit solutions and healthcare claims processing environments, managing human resource processes and requirements and automating business processes" for corporate, government and non-profit clients. SEB is pleased to announce it has received final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange and has closed the acquisition of Logitek Technology Ltd. ("QLogitek").
Mr. Latiq Qureshi, the principal of QLogitek, has joined the board of directions of SEB. Mr. Qureshi is the founder of QLogitek. He has been operating his own businesses since 1976.

SEB issued, in satisfaction of the $2,009,452 purchase price, 6,698,173 SEB shares ("Shares") and 1,000,000 Share Purchase Warrants ("Warrants"). SEB and the Seller of QLogitek, Logitek Data Sciences Ltd., agreed to a contractual escrow arrangement pursuant to which one million Shares would be released on the closing and the balance over a period of 30 months in various amounts at 6 month intervals. The Warrants have a term of 42 months and an escalating exercise price every 12 months of $0.45, $0.55 and $0.65 during the first three years of the term and at $0.75 for the last six months of the term. The Warrants contain performance vesting conditions during their term equating to cumulative revenue and EBITDA targets of $15.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively. As part of the transaction and in order to retire $651,858 of debt owing by QLogitek, SEB issued a five year convertible note in the amount of $651,858 with an annualized interest rate of 3% and an escalating conversion price of $0.45, $0.55, $0.65, $0.70 and $0.75 from years one through five.

The QLogitek supply chain software solutions and PCI level one compliant hosting environment, combined with SEB's leading rules based, fully integrated adjudication software platform will give SEB the capability to provide health claims processing clients with highly customized, fully integrated - administration, billing, adjudication, claims paying, reporting - technology environments which are very unique in the health claims processing industry. The QLogitek acquisition enhances SEB's ability to offer efficient and highly cost effective functionality, features, and comprehensive services to this industry that are not readily available in the Canadian marketplace today. Mr. Qureshi is a technology visionary and has built and deployed many innovative technology solutions for leading global companies and organizations.

Latiq Qureshi, Pres/CEO, QLogitek, commented, "Mr. McKimm and I have been business associates for many years. We are very excited about the SEB vision and see numerous applications for QLogitek technology solutions in healthcare. QLogitek is a well established solutions provider offering supply chain expertise and software. The 'health claims processing' industry is a massive industry. QLogitek expertise and software solutions, combined with the leading SEB technology solutions (in adjudication and administration) and expertise is a powerful combination in an industry where critical and core functionality still operates on 25 year old mainframe environments. Additionally, SEB management will bring opportunities and business relationships to enlarge QLogitek's core supply chain software and systems integration business. The fit between QLogitek and SEB creates opportunities for both companies to further QLogitek supply chain solutions into new marketplaces, particularly in healthcare. QLogitek and SEB have been co-located for a number of months. We are collaboratively engaged in joint technology development and a number of joint client initiatives, including synergistic acquisitions. There are many additional synergies that both companies will enjoy as we move forward together in providing software, solutions and services to our clients."

Hedgehog is an important morphogenic signal that directs pattern formation during embryogenesis, but its activity also remains present through adult life. It is now becoming increasingly clear that during the reproductive phase of life and beyond it continues to direct cell renewal (which is essential to combat the chronic environmental stress to which the body is constantly exposed) and counteracts vascular, osteolytic and sometimes oncological insults to the body. Conversely, down-regulation of hedgehog signalling is associated with ageing-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes, neurodegeneration, atherosclerosis and osteoporosis. Hence, in this essay we argue that hedgehog signalling is not only important at the start of life, but also constitutes an important anti-geriatric influence, and that enhanced understanding of its properties may contribute to developing rational strategies for healthy ageing and prevention of ageing-related diseases.

Courts across common law jurisdictions seem to have adopted procedural rules giving judges the power to decide if a case ought to be heard orally or not. The level of discretion differs across jurisdictions, but the power is there. In the Indian context it seems that right to hearing is understood as right to 'oral' hearing. Wondering if you may have come across any Indian law/rule etc which limits oral hearing?Unknownhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-15602189.post-29549772790735155632014-11-20T00:00:55.884+05:302014-11-20T00:00:55.884+05:30Buffalo is black-skinned.

But I would like to alarm the people of bihar that don't be happy just because of it. The reason for saying this is that the Act "Bihar Special court bill,2009" has been only enacted to curb the dishonest bureaucrats of the Bihar. Non where it mentions; how to curb the corruption in the politics and moreover non where it mentions what to do in case is MLA has a disproportionate assets to its income.
There could be two reasons why this hasn't been done. First is that all MLA are honest and the second it could be that to punish those bureaucrats only who doesn't assist the MLAS in doing the corruption or scams. Otherwise I an't find any reason why in this law legislatures are not included.So it could be easily presumed that those bureaucrats will be punished who don't assist the MLA in doing scam by the virtue of this ACT.
And I would also like to add the last point that if this is not the truth then why instead of these tough laws Bihar is top in corruption.

2. same sex marriage and carnal intercourse is a socio-legal issue like Euthanasia, judiciary always has to see the social fabric of India.
3. How can the state allow carnal intercourse. It is unnatural as the human body does not support it. The lubrication mechanism of the human body is clear example of that. (It also leads to cancer and many STDs). If still the citizens demand such a freedom as a matter of right, then on that logic taking drugs is also correct, suicide is also correct. The state cannot allow these freedoms because it harms the citizens themselves. (Julius Stone).
4. And why criticize the judge just because he is retiring? He might be old school, but he is qualified to do his job. The judgment is a reasoned order. It is not as lame as saying - i dismiss the appeal because its bad.
5. on Art 136- we all know the amount of powers vested with the SC to permit standing of a party. Although it could be one of the criticisms, it is not fatal to the decision. It is constitutionally valid.
6. Justice Singhvi might be hated by many people, but he has laudatory judgments to his credit. Your blog oozes a lot of ridicule for the judge may be because you highly support the issue. Being a law student we should be dispassionate and avoid personal comments on judges. At least he is not going berserk like Justice Katju.Andromeda Davishttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-15602189.post-52757181519694399202014-08-30T00:12:31.813+05:302014-08-30T00:12:31.813+05:30Excellent observations Smaran.Excellent observations Smaran.Nikunj Agarwalhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-15602189.post-73907913003074475652014-08-30T00:06:32.004+05:302014-08-30T00:06:32.004+05:30Excellent observations Smaran.

This reflects normalisation of systematic SC/STs oppression in our country when, in reality, crimes under Atrocities Act are so rampantly occurring and alienating ST/SCs, pushing them to the verge of taking up arms and becoming the 'biggest threat to internal security'. This Act and Section were introduced after The Untouchability (Offences) Act, 1955 and Protection of Civil Rights Act, 1976 failed to curb the menace. Looking at the cases from high courts it is evident that anticipatory bails are routinely given through circumventing this law, sometimes even when prima facia the offence under the Atrocities Act has been made out. It is just like cases of crimes against women where stringent laws are being introduced but society and legal institutions are not psyched to implement it. True Ashish Nandy's case was unfortunate but we cannot lose sight of larger picture. At the moment, the prevailing SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Amendment Ordinance, 2014 has also kept the section intact.Kriti Sharmahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-15602189.post-33657866176249341502014-08-12T10:57:18.706+05:302014-08-12T10:57:18.706+05:30Hi!

In this case also the Supreme Court made a similar observation that "every discretionary power vested in the Executive should be exercised in a just, reasonable and fair way .... In these circumstances, we are of the view that the Central Government should be directed to consider within a reasonable time the question whether it should bring section 30 of the Act into force of not. If on such consideration the Central Government feels that the prevailing circumstances are such that section 30 of the Act should not be brought into force immediately it is a different matter. But it cannot be allowed to leave the matter to lie over without applying its mind"

I had become aware of the Brooklynite with the release of Come Clean sometime around 1993. Teaming up with DJ Premier who co-produced his first album, The Sun Rises in the East and the follow-up, The Wrath of the Math, Jeru had become a force to be reckoned with. His lyrics were conscious and he railed against hip-hop's shift to a more flighty commercial style, directly calling out Bad Boy Records, which under Puff Daddy was taking hip-hop into an uncomfortable realm. As I was becoming slightly disillusioned with rap music at the time, to me Jeru was at the very least identifying that something was amidst and therefore confirming that it was not just me imagining things. Fast forward a decade and a half later. Jeru has released three more albums, none of which have garnered the attention of the first two. The MC who said he "controlled the mic like Fidel Castro" has effectively slipped into the shadows. What will be his demeanour? I quickly realize in talking with the man that he has as much vigour as ever, motivated by newfound artistic avenues. In 35 minutes of conversation, Jeru is affable and candid. Here is what he had to say while packing up his photography equipment.A lot has happened since you released your last album in 2007, the most notable being the election of Barack Obama. How has the election of the first black President in the U.S. affected your or not affected you?It really didn't. It is a shame that it is 2009 and we are excited about a black president. Ireland had a black mayor before we had a black president. Barack is great for my grandmother and little kids. My grandmothers' generation saw [the struggles] of the '40s, '50s and '60s and little kids can look up to Obama and think, "I can be president." For me ― it's just another politician.I was just listening to "Quantum Leap" from your last album on your MySpace page. You mention Michael Jackson in the track. What are your thoughts on the life and death of Michael?I loved Michael. I think I mentioned him in some way on every album. The fact that he was a tortured soul and individual is something I can relate to. We didn't know what demons he had ― let's face it though, he was off his rocker. It's a shame he was able to do that many drugs and it's a shame that you would want to take that many drugs. He was the King of Pop, always and forever. At the same time, there are more important things going on, you got people flying from all over the world to come see Michael. All the money from those plane tickets could be used in places like Sierra Leone to stop wars.Are there plans to start recording you're next album?I'm working on a couple of side projects. I am really into my photography right now. I have had shows in Paris and Denmark. I keep changing my mind on subject matter because I am such an artist.You are obviously very into photography, what do you like to shoot?I like taking pictures of women. I have a certain admiration for the female form. It's not about nudity, it is about the appreciation, movement and lighting. It's not like taking hoochie pictures ― although I have taken a few of those.How did you get into photography?My grandmother ― she wasn't a professional but she could have been if she desired to be one. If I could go back in time, I would give her a single lens reflex camera to capture what she saw. She would have been one of the greats. [In terms of myself] it just popped up one day, about year ago.Has making music taken a back seat to photography?Music helps to fuel my photography and vice versa. Photography opens my mind in different ways. When I am in Toronto ― I am going to let it be known, my hotel room is going to be my studio even if I have to push the bed up against the wall.Photography seems to go hand in hand with filmmaking, often people go from being a photographer to directing? Do you have any plans on this ― perhaps to direct your own videos?I've written a few screenplays. I wrote the whole treatment for "Ya Playin' Yaself" and came up with the concept. I also wrote the treatment for "Me or the Papes" with my man Dave Faustino ― aka Bud Bundy. I also directed 99.9 percent.Speaking of directing ― that is a good segue into my next question which involves a quote I heard from Martin Scorsese on The Charlie Rose Show. He said something to the effect of "making films becomes harder with age." Would you say the same applies for making music?It gets harder not necessarily with age but because you've been using your ideas for so long, it's like how do stay fresh without recycling the same material. With experience you get much wiser but the passion is different. It's not impossible, it just takes a bit more time.You've always been a conscious rapper and have spoken out in your rhymes against the negative influences on hip-hop culture. Years ago you called Bad Boy but there always seems to be a new bad guy ― the last one I can think of would be 50 Cent. Is it even worth rapping or talking about these things at all anymore?In my old age I know when to leave it alone. Sun Tsu said, "Certain land one does not contend for." You choose your battles wisely. That was my youth talking, young soldiers don't know the perils of war, they just wanna jump right in. The best kind of information is misinformation. You give people the wrong information. You make the enemy think you are their best friend and then you chop his head off. That was the old Jeru ― I'm the older wiser Jeru.You are coming up to host Hip Hop Karaoke ― when was the last time you were in Toronto to perform?I was there last year but I am there a lot. I love the T-dot it's my third home.What is your second home?London, England and my fourth home is Denmark ― I've got a lot of homes, hommes! [laughs]I'm sure you aware of the CityParks Concerts initiative in New York where rappers come back to their neighbourhoods and do a show. Raekwon recently did Mahoney Park in Staten Island. Has anyone ever approached you to do this?I did Prospect Park in '08 at the band shell, it was the return of the Crooklyn Dodgers: Masta Ace, Chubb Rock, O.C. Buckshot, Ali Shaheed. Next year I'm plannin' to do Gershwin Park in East New York. My sister is actually part of the George Walker Foundation, they recently fixed up an old school house that had become dilapidated and had drug addicts sleepin' in it. Now there is a community park ― they have movie Friday's and a basketball league.You know I have to ask this next question right?What, Premier right?Yes.I actually was out in Red Hook (At CityParks Concerts) and took some photos of Premier. It was Premier vs. DJ Scratch. I see him a lot. Will there be another record? Sometimes brothers get tired of each other, sometimes you gotta spread out regardless of what people on the outside think. I saw a so-called expert on an internet site say that the reason me and Primo had beef was because he gave Big the "10 Crack Commandments" beat. Initially I had recorded that for a promo for Angie Martinez and the Hot Five at Nine on Hot 97. That's why it goes ― 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9. Big heard it and was feelin' it and so he asked Premier if he could have it. Primo said you gotta ask 'ru and he did. I said "you can have it" ― that's my brother.Speaking of Biggie ― it has been 12 years since he was cut down. What are your reflections?When Big got killed it was Primo that called me. I had a nice shorty that was with me in my bed from the night before... [sighs]. I remember it just fucked my whole day up. GET IT!

Police: Mother killed young son, daughter
Updated On: Oct 18 2012 11:30:00 AM CDT
A 23-year-old New Orleans woman was charged with two counts of first-degree murder hours after investigators found her two young children dead in a Gert Town apartment on Wednesday.
Chelsea Thornton was being held at Orleans Parish Prison. New Orleans police said she admitted in a recorded interview to shooting her 3-year-old son and drowning her 4-year-old daughter in a bathtub Wednesday afternoon.
Police said the boy was shot with a semi-automatic handgun. In a court record, police said Thornton told investigators that the girl was drowned after the gun failed to fire again.
Investigators said she then left the home, in the 3300 block of Audubon Court, and took a bus to a hospital because she was suffering from stomach pains and a headache.
The children's grandmother found the lifeless bodies of the toddlers about 5:30 p.m. and called for help. No one else was at the home, officials said.
One investigator could only describe it as a "terrible, terrible tragedy."
NOPD did not release a possible motive for the murders and asked anyone with information on the suspect or crimes to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-111.
The investigation into the killings is ongoing.

Hi: 9° Lo:6°
By Tristan Harris Thursday 15 May 2014 Updated: 19/05 00:42
MORE THAN 150 people went to a community fayre at Bromsgrove's Life After Stroke Centre last Thursday (May 8) to celebrate the building's second birthday.
A variety of events were held at the centre to mark the marvellous milestone, to officially open the new Edith Murphy House and also to highlight Action on Stroke Month, which is happening throughout May.
Those who went along were able to find out more about stroke, mini-stroke and the services available at the centre for stroke survivors and their families.
Visitors could also have their blood pressure checked and get advice on the best ways of reducing their risk of stroke.
There was a barbecue and a special performance from a choir made up of almost all stroke survivors who had had speech barriers to overcome.
And there was also a Tai Chi workshop and community arts opportunity where people could put what they wanted on a canvas.
There was also lots of food, cake and other treats on a buffet which had all been made and donated by volunteers and people affected by stroke.
The Life After Stroke Centre in Bromsgrove is the first of its kind in the UK and Edith Murphy House is the latest addition to it. It encompasses a lounge, arts and crafts room and quiet room which stroke survivors and their families can use.
Hugh Tibbits, The Stroke Association's regional head of operations for the West Midlands, said: "It has been very very busy given the weather, we were a bit concerned but the turn out has been fantastic."
Jo Avis, a stroke survivor who attended the event, said she was there not just there to celebrate the building's birthday but also her tenth anniversary of being a stroke survivor.
She said: "As a new person coming to the centre, I get the impression everyone who comes here uses their unique skills and expertise to share with one another.
"It's really humbling to see the big stroke community here today - stroke affects both sexes of all ages, its nice to come here and see your not the only one.
"Coming here, it's nice to feel you have something to give as a stroke survivor instead of being the person who is always having to ask for help from others - it's a very empowering feeling, it's nice.
Jo has also donated a lot of artwork to the centre which is now on its walls.

The Good Lovelies perform in Monroe, Wis., Nov. 30
Online Staff Report
MONROE, Wis. — Funny and upbeat, with just a pinch of sass, the Good Lovelies prove they are not your run-of-the-mill "all-girl" band. At a time when too many of us are affected by gloom, doom and recovering from recession, these three women are the perfect antidote.
The Good Lovelies will bring their special brand of music to the Monroe Arts Center stage, located at 1315 11th St. in Monroe, Wis., at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Nov. 30.
The aptly-named Good Lovelies are Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough and Sue Passmore, all of them best friends and refugees from solo careers.
Part Western Swing and part folk-roots music, this Toronto-based trio, who entertain with textbook three-part vocal harmonies, clever songs, constant instrument swapping and witty on-stage banter drawn from a seemingly endless succession of comedic adventures on the road, have enlivened the swing and folk music landscape since they joined forces in 2006.
The lighthearted songwriting and irresistibly buoyant dispositions of Brooks (vocals, guitar, mandolin, banjo, bass), Ough (vocals, guitar, banjo, keyboard, bass) and Passmore (vocals, guitar, bass, percussion) have made them the darlings of the summer festival circuit. With three albums under their belts — Good Lovelies Oh My! (2007), Under the Mistletoe (2009) and Let the Rain Fall (2011) — the Good Lovelies won New Emerging Artist at the 2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards. In 2010, they received a prestigious Juno Award (Canadian Grammy) for Roots Album of the Year.
Reserved seat tickets for The Good Lovelies are $25, $20 for adults, and $10 for students 18 years of age and younger. Tickets may be purchased in person at the box office at 1315 11th St., Monroe, Wis., by calling the Monroe Arts Center at (608) 325-5700 or 888-596-1249, or online at www.monroeartscenter.com.

Researchers seeking the roots of autism have linked the disorder to chemicals in air pollution and, in a separate study, found that language difficulties of the disorder may be due to a problem in brain wiring.
Researchers from Harvard University's School of Public Health found that pregnant women exposed to high levels of diesel particulates or mercury were twice as likely to have an autistic child than peers in low-pollution areas. The findings, published Tuesday in Environmental Health Perspectives, are from the largest U.S. study to examine the ties between air pollution and autism.
One in 50 U.S. children is diagnosed with autism or a related disorder, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Children with autism may be unresponsive to people, become indifferent to social activity and have communication difficulties.
A separate study from Stanford University and published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences is the first to suggest that weak connections between brain regions for speaking and reward may be why.
The cause of autism isn't known, though genetic factors are thought to be important, according to the National Institutes of Health.
The link to air pollution was initially made in 2006 and met with skepticism, said Marc Weisskopf, an author of today's study.
The Harvard researchers used data from the Nurse's Health Study 2, a long-term study involving more than 116,000 nurses, begun in 1989. Within that group, the scientists looked at 325 women who had a child with autism and 22,000 women who had children without the disorder.
Using data from the Environmental Protection Agency, researchers estimated the women's exposure to toxins, a method that Weisskopf said is imperfect. His study is large enough to suggest follow-up studies with more precise methods of detecting chemicals in the air, he said.
In the language study, brain imaging determined that the connections between brain regions for language and reward were stronger in children who don't have the disorder than in those diagnosed with it, said Daniel Abrams, a postdoctoral research fellow at Stanford University in California. That's important because communication problems are key diagnostic criteria for autism.
Typical infants listen to human speech and engage with sounds to develop early language skills and emotional understanding as well as to bond with their parents, the authors wrote.
The researchers looked at how the speech part of the brain was connected to other regions. Those with autism had weaker connections between the temporal lobe, where speech is controlled, and the dopamine reward pathway that elicits pleasurable feelings, the study found.

Years before Google Scholar was launched, Professor Lee Giles, from Penn State University was online with a specialty database named CiteSeer (some also might also know it as ResearchIndex). CiteSeer search technology continues to be developed. This database offers access to "scholarly literature" found on the open web in several disciplines including information technology, computer science, telecom, and more. It's a GREAT tool (a clear understatement). More than five years ago when Chris and I were co-authoring The Invisible Web, it was one of our favorite tools to write and talk about. It remains on my select list of resources that are a must for any researcher in the fields I've listed above.
So, why mention it today?
Dr. Giles has informed me that:
+ CiteSeer now offers "acknowledgement search."
He writes:
You can search the acknowledgements of all papers in CiteSeer for funding agencies, individuals, deities, etc. To my knowledge, we are the first to do this.
+ I've also noticed tht the CiteSeer database and search interface is now mirrored at:
++ University of Zürich
++ National University of Singapore
CiteSeer, Smeal Search and More
Another database, SMEALSearch, is available. It uses the CiteSeer crawling and search technology to make "scholarly" papers available for those with a research interest in business.
+ CiteSeer received an honorable mention in the 5th Annual Search Engine Watch Awards.
+ In June, legendary librarian and reference reviewer, Peter Jacso, published a review of Google Scholar and had some very positive comments about CiteSeer.
+ On a personal note, the work of Dr. Lee Giles continues to be of the most important inspirations/motivators in my interest in specialty search tools. This ResourceShelf post offers links to learn more about his work. Even more here.

There are many instruments that walk through the door at

necks on vintage Martins, performed many refrets, and all around enjoyed having
different things to work on each day.

Adult entertainment company Corbin Fisher has been actively pursuing pirates, though not without some sympathy: pay up pre-trial, say the lawyers, and you'll never even see the inside of a courtroom.
A new case finds the company suing two different BitTorrent groups, ostensibly leveling charges against some unnamed individuals who may not have actually pirated the file themselves.
On Wednesday, Corbin Fisher's parent Liberty Media Holdings, LLC targeted two different swarms (.pdf #1 and .pdf #2) and a combined 25 John Does for the illegal distribution and reproduction of its film "Amateur College Men Down on the Farm" according to court documents acquired by Slyck.
The complaints maintain the bulk of the misdeeds were carried out in Ohio, and confirm that while the true names of the alleged perpetrators are yet unknown the company plans to subpoena their ISPs.
That is where things tend to get tricky: receiving a mailing address for a defendant may help, but if the computer utilized for illicit activities is shared by multiple users narrowing down just who is at fault could prove difficult.
Furthermore, as Slyck notes, naming individual John Does in cases already accusing a swarm of computers not only seems redundant, but compounds the difficulty assigning blame: a computer may have been connected to the swarm, but does that mean its owner actually downloaded, viewed or distributed the material illegally?
These types of cases are difficult to build (assigning real names to take the place of countless "John Does" is just one step), costly to litigate and don't always go as planned. As a result, some companies (Corbin Fisher included) offer amnesty to those violators who come forth proactively, admit their "crimes" and pay up. It's an out-of-court settlement before anyone is technically taken to court, and sidesteps all the messy legal work.
Of course, that's not to say the amnesty deal is flawless; people could falsely confess to the crime and/or email stories about talking unicorns. (Via Slyck)

Seriously, could some lawyer help on this one? How is that not tampering with a witness? Pay me now, or I'll sue you into oblivion. Someone needs to sue these companies into oblivion. And what about my ISP just handing over info without my consent, shouldn't my data be kept out of these companies hands unless they have a court order? Lastly, how do they actually track who has what?
Do they just take a pic, then chase down my ip address? Suppose I start to download something, then get a guilty conscience and delete before it is finished or before it is watchable? Should these also be legal considerations that companies and courts could face?

The logic is lost on me: If you're Rihanna or Wilma Flintstone (and who among us is?), then any girl can "rock" this necklace? If you're not, then no girl can rock it? Huh? Can someone explain this to me?
If you're an editor for Yahoo! Shine, you may be in the wrong job. Here are just three signs from the Shine home page that should have you considering a career change.
The first sign that perhaps you're not cut out for writing or editing is your inability to match a verb with its subject:
Another sign that should have you questioning your role: You think this is how to show the decade known as the '80s:
And the third sign you're in the wrong job? You can't tell the difference between a possessive pronoun (like your, meaning "belonging to you") and a contraction (like you're, meaning "you are"):
You're not going to believe this headline from Yahoo! News' "Who Knew?"
Is it just a careless error, or does the writer really not know the difference between the possessive pronoun your and the contraction you're?
If your first sentence in your first paragraph contains these errors, shouldn't you think about hanging up your keyboard?
If you don't know the difference between a contraction (like you're) and a possessive pronoun (like your), you don't know enough to hyphenate a compound modifier (like Oscar-winning), you match a hyphen (which should be an em-dash) with a comma (which also should be an em-dash), you omit words, you hyphenate seaside, and you can't spell Steve Carell, should you call it quits?
Not if you're a writer for Yahoo! Movies. And not if you've been writing for years for well-respected publications like The New York Times Magazine, O: The Oprah Magazine, Marie Claire, More, Interview Magazine, The New York Times, The International Herald Tribune, Cosmopolitan and Self. Those are publications with standards higher that Yahoo!'s. You'd never find that many egregious mistakes in an entire article, much less an opening paragraph. What gives?
A writer for print publications is used to the support of competent editors. At Yahoo!, this writer's words are published — gross mistakes and all — without benefit of editing.
That paragraph isn't an anomaly. The article continues with a total miss at AnnaSophia Robb and 14-year-old:
There's the reality nit-picky double double-quotes and the typoed tween:
And to prove that this so-called movie critic has no idea that she doesn't know how to spell Steve Carell's name, she screws it up three more times here:
and here:
and here:
Would you expect to see something of this quality in a legitimate news source or magazine? No, because those publications employ editors. And this writer is obviously dependent on them.

Is antibiotic resistance really due to increase in information?
It has been said that "Information is power". When it comes to creation information we'd have to agree. Keep the 'powerful' evidence for God being Creator coming. Support this site

Early in 2012, a developer, named Egor Homakov, took advantage of a security hole at Github (a Rails app) to gain commit access to the Rails project. His intent was mostly to point out a common security issue with many Rails apps that results from a feature, known as mass assignment (and did so rather loudly). In this article, we'll review what mass assignment is, how it can be a problem, and what you can do about it in your own applications.

Wanna boost app speed? Think of the server, and tune 'er to NUMA
The HPC on Wall Street conference was hosted in the Big Apple on Monday, and while there was a lot–and we mean a lot–of talk about big data, one presentation stood out as being potentially much more useful in the long run than all of the big data bloviations. The talk was given by one of the founders of a financial services …
Great fun
This looks like great fun, reminds me so much of what I was doing 20-30 years ago in the games industry. We were not only looking at algorithms for performance but eking every last cycle out of the hardware and support chips.
Time to get my IT CV dusted off perhaps.
Does Dirk Pitt® know?
Beat me to it - have an upvote
I wonder if the Panama Canal has been repaired yet?
Ohhhhh....now I get it
I thought this had something to do with tuning into the NUMA NUMA guy. I should have known better. Wall Street has no sense of humor, or human feelings.
Awesome code!
