DoorBot aims to help with exactly this, by functioning as a Wi-Fi-connected doorbell that streams live video and audio directly to your smartphone of choice whether you're sitting on your couch or backpacking abroad.

Software works like a traffic cop to boost Wi-Fi performance
Researchers at North Caroline State University have come up with a new tool to speed up public Wi-Fi hotspots. The researchers say that WiFox software can improve data throughput by up to 700 percent and could be packaged as an update to existing networks. Read More
Triggertrap Mobile gains Wi-Fi triggering via multiple smart devices
The Triggertrap Mobile app released earlier this year gave photographers the ability to use a smartphone or tablet connected to their camera, to trigger its shutter in a number of cool ways. Now a significant update also enables Wi-Fi triggering … on the condition you have two smart devices, one to use as a master and the other as a slave. Read More
Intel demos WiGig wireless technology that is 10 times faster than 802.11n
Many home and business local area networks (LANs) built around the 802.11n standard are starting to buckle under the strain placed on them by an ever-increasing number of wireless devices clamoring for bandwidth. A new technology known as WiGig is looking to clear the bottleneck by offering transfer rates 10 times that of the fastest 802.11n networks. At its Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2012 in San Francisco, Intel demonstrated WiGig multigigabit wireless docking technology that has the potential to remove almost all wires trailing to and from a computer.

Connectify, a company known for software that can turn your computer into a wireless hotspot, is at work on a new project called Dispatch that will turn all internet connections available to your device into one glorious (and hopefully faster and more stable) stream of high-speed bandwidth.

From HAL 9000 in Arthur C Clarke's Space Odyssey science fiction saga to Eddie and Deep Thought from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, or even Dr. Theopolis from Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, voice interaction with computers was very much the stuff of science fiction when I was growing up. These days, of course, I can use my voice to tell an iPod touch to change music or get convincingly beaten in a TV game show by IBM's Watson but when shopping for a new computer, available options still depend on physical touch for input and visuals for output. The folks behind the ubiquitous computer (or Ubi for short) are hoping to change that by launching an affordable, unobtrusive and useful little box that's always ready and waiting to tell you what you need to know.

The term disc-jockey is thought to have first been coined in the mid-1930s to introduce a radio show host who played recorded (rather than live) music. Although 12-inch platters of grooved black goodness remain popular with Club and Party DJs, it's rare to find a radio professional who hasn't abandoned the format in favor of digital music. Mix-masters who have gone digital can also groove on the move thanks to powerful apps for smartphones and tablets like IK Multimedia's DJ Rig, but physical connectivity is still needed when adding device-based audio tracks to the set. Pioneer's Professional Sound and Visual Division has rallied to the cause with what's claimed to be the industry's first Wi-Fi DJ system capable of wireless playback from portable devices ... the XDJ-AERO.

Cameras which make it easy to share photos via WiFi are nothing new. Kodak started the ball rolling back in 2005, and most recently we've seen the NX Series from Samsung and the Nikon D3200 consumer DSLR get in on the action. Fujifilm, however, is taking a slightly different approach with the launch of the new FinePix F800EXR - it shares images with iOS and Android phones or tablets via an app. Read More
General Motors is working to expand upon its vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication systems that are being developed to allow information to be shared between vehicles and infrastructure to provide advance warning of potential road hazards, such as stalled vehicles, slippery roads, road works, intersections, stop signs and the like. The automaker is now looking to add pedestrians and cyclists to the mix so a car can detect them in low visibility conditions before the driver does. Read More
Samsung has announced the successor to its EX1/TL500 compact launched in 2010. The new EX2F model features built-in wireless connectivity and while the F1.8 lens on the predecessor was pretty quick, Samsung has significantly improved on that for the new release with a (very) fast F1.4 wide-angle lens. As you might expect, the megapixel count has also increased (but not as much as you may think), and the video recording capabilities have been upped to 1080/30p. Read More

This has been going on for far too long -- the litigation, that is. "Stop and frisk" was a terrible, constitutionally suspect practice where police officers would stop and pat down pedestrians in high-crime areas for no real reason. Disproportionately, those stopped were minorities.
Perhaps seeing the writing on the wall after multiple unfavorable court decisions, or perhaps because he understands the Fourth Amendment better than his predecessor, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio decided to settle the case. But the police unions, unhappy with the settlement, sought to intervene.
On Friday, the Second Circuit, affirming the district court's earlier ruling, held that their attempt was too little, too late. And with no intervenors left to spoil the party, this could be the last we hear about stop and frisk.

'Frozen Planet' Raises Climate Questions
Sunday night, Discovery Channel aired the final episode of the Frozen Planet series that aired on the BBC last year.
This episode featured Sir David Attenborough visiting both poles – huddled by a sedated polar bear in the Arctic, hollering over the extreme winds at his Antarctic campsite – reminding the audience of a cold reality regarding any species' survival: it's adapt or die.

Master stylist, educator, and platform artist Nina Grossman traveled the country before settling in Texas. Over the course of 16 years, she honed her skills from Alaska to New York, landing in Austin in 2007 to open Luxe A Boutique Salon. Throughout her career, Grossman has mentored up-and-coming beauty pros on the art of hair design as well as the importance of listening to clients' needs and reinterpretations of show-tune classics. She's gathered a team of master stylists and color specialists, makeup artists, and aestheticians to perform services that range from haircuts and highlights to peels and threading.
Her salon's exposed-brick walls and leather chairs lend it sophistication, and damask-like patterns juxtaposed with animal prints nod to both vintage and contemporary sensibilities. In a private, chocolate-toned skincare room, associates perform fragrant facials with Éminence Organic Skin Care products, soothing complexions in the way the floral artwork soothes the mind. Afterward, women can shop for apparel and accessories in the boutique area or head to the outdoor patio to relax before reemerging into the world.
At Skin Solutions Staten Island, the main focus is, of course, skin, and a team of aestheticians works to clear it of the many epidermal issues that can plague it. Some techniques are more advanced, including an extensive array of laser services that treat anything from age spots and acne to spider veins and loss of elasticity. There are cellulite treatments, too, as well as Botox injections and permanent-makeup applications.
More traditional therapies include several types of facials, such as glycolic peels and deep-pore cleansing. Body treatments nourish the skin with seaweed wraps or honey-almond scrubs, and massage therapy relaxes muscles with Swedish, hot-stone, or reflexology sessions.
Venus Esthetics' tranquil spa retreat is a honeycomb of intimate treatment rooms in which clients rejuvenate their looks or shed undue stress. Aestheticians pamper the countenances of men and women alike, glazing faces with antioxidant-rich products, aromatic essential oils, or cheekbone-enhancing Venetian masks. To nourish skin below the neck, clients can wallow in full-body treatments infused with organically grown seaweed, algae, or sea salt. The spa's massage therapists employ therapeutic bodywork that soothes musculature sore from stress, injury, or physical exertion. The center's cosmetic technicians outfit themselves with top-secret technology, including a skin-firming ultrasound machine and an aesthetic laser system.
Inside A Cut Above Hair Salon, Laura of Lovely Looks by Laura adds finishing touches to her clients' looks with eyelash extensions, waxes, and spray tans. During eyelash-extension appointments, Laura bonds 35 to 40 extensions to individual lashes for a look that lasts up to three weeks. To keep up looks, Laura also offers touchup appointments to fill in any missing extensions after two weeks.
Updos, downdos, and perms: the licensed stylists at A Cut Above sculpt all these looks. Employing products from top-selling brands, they also dye hair and add highlights. They also schedule services for wedding parties, and makeover mannequins that fill seats at opening nights of plays that haven't sold out.
Our Laser Center has been growing rapidly over the years from our own clients referring thier friends and family. New clients come to us after seeing drastic changes in our clients. We customize our treatment plans based on each individual.We are friendly and professional and employ only licensed professionals.

Love, love, love this watch! It's heavy but I suppose that is whats to be expected. It looks so good on my petite wrist!
This watch is absolutely beautiful! Worth every penny!
I just received this watch and I love it. I love mens watch's but they are a bit too big for me and this one fits the bill. It is pretty heavy but that's just another thing I love about it. If you have really small wrists this watch may be a bit overwhelming but for me it Is perfect. I wore it yesterday and received so many compliments.
I am not a watch expert but I am very happy with this purchase. It's a really nice size, clean and simple style and is pretty heavy so hopefully that means good quality. My husband tends to be more of the style expert and he was pretty impressed also.
I was disappointed when I opened my MK watch. It was very BIG and heavy almost like a man's watch so I had to return it It would work for a big wrist women but not for the petite ones. The watch face covered my entire wrist. However, it was a sturdy and well made watch. Too bad it didn't work out for me.
I love Michael Kors watch and you had a great price on the watch. Love the style as well.
This is a very nice, but the face and band were bigger than I expected. Being petite, I thought the watch was way too big to be worn in a professional work environment. Maybe ok for casual wear.

SAN RAMON, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/17/14 -- In a significant advance to its distribution channel strategy, WANdisco (LSE: WAND) has successfully completed certification with Oracle, enabling its Non-Stop Hadoop software to run on Oracle Big Data Appliance.
WANdisco's Non-Stop Hadoop for Oracle Big Data Appliance version 1.9 achieves Oracle Big Data Appliance Ready status through Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), demonstrating that WANdisco supports Non-Stop Hadoop for Oracle Big Data Appliance version 1.9 with Oracle Big Data Appliance and Oracle Linux. WANdisco is a Gold level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork.
Our support of Oracle Big Data Appliance reflects the ongoing adoption of Hadoop by enterprise customers that want to use Hadoop in production environments to capture and analyze large volumes of unstructured data. It has been given additional impetus by the request of one of WANdisco's prospective customers in automotive manufacturing that wants to access Oracle appliances in conjunction with WANdisco's continuous availability layer. Customers like this are concluding that for Big Data to be used for mission-critical applications, it has to be continuously available over a wide area network.
The Oracle Exastack Ready program recognizes WANdisco as having applications that leverage the latest Oracle technology to better support joint customers. Oracle Big Data Appliance Ready is part of the Oracle Exastack Ready program which allows partners, such as WANdisco, to be recognized by Oracle for developing and supporting their applications on Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Oracle SuperCluster, Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud, Oracle Exalytics In-Memory Machine, Oracle Database Appliance or Oracle Big Data Appliance engineered systems. Oracle Big Data Appliance is an engineered system that delivers comprehensive and secure big data capabilities and is integrated, optimized, and tuned to shorten deployment times and reduce cost and risk. Oracle Linux brings the latest Linux innovations to market, delivering extreme performance, advanced scalability, and reliability for enterprise applications and systems, along with worldwide, enterprise-class, low-cost support.
"We are delighted to have achieved Oracle Big Data Appliance Ready status from Oracle. It is a reflection of the accelerating pace at which large enterprises are moving into production with Hadoop data and applications environments," said David Richards, WANdisco Co-Founder and CEO. "WANdisco's Non-Stop Hadoop continuous availability layer can be designed into customers' Big Data infrastructure from the outset, helping the world's most demanding customers meet their requirement for their Big Data operations."
"When partners such as WANdisco leverage the latest component products of Oracle Big Data Appliance as the foundation for their applications, they benefit from a complete, integrated and cloud-ready infrastructure that will help them utilize new features and functionality in a highly innovative fashion," said David Hicks, Vice President, Worldwide ISV and OEM Business Development, Oracle. "By achieving Oracle Big Data Appliance Ready and Oracle Linux Ready status, WANdisco has demonstrated its Non-Stop Hadoop for Oracle Big Data Appliance is supported and ready to work with Oracle Big Data Appliance to help deliver optimum performance, scalability, and reliability to their customers."
A webinar focused on Non-Stop Big Data with Oracle and WANdisco will take place on Wednesday, August 20 at 10:00 am Pacific, featuring presenters from both companies. Attendees will learn how to achieve continuous availability, with maximum performance and optimum scalability for global multi-data center Hadoop deployments. Register here.

Mobile Interview
I applied online. The process took a day – interviewed at Vibes in February 2012.
The woman from HR who interviewed me was totally unprofessional and very abrasive. She was a really poor reflection of this company and convinced me that this is not the place for me. She just kept drilling me with the same questions over and over, which wasn't at all necessary.
- Walk me through your resume. Answer Question

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks – interviewed at Vibes in October 2011.Interview Details
Be prepared for a full interrogation on the phone by the HR manager. She's over-the-top with her self-importance and how she controls the interview. The level of detail for the initial phone screen is far and above what is necessary. I was invited for a 1:1 interview with the hiring manager who was late and had to reduce the amount of time to meet because of conflicting appointments. The HR manager conducted a tour of the office area which is similar to a race track that enables dot.com wannabes to tool around on Razor Scooters in search of free food and beverages. In fact, the company's play area dominates over 25% of their work space. The work environment appears to be a day care center for adults. Not professional and totally cliche. If want to move into a serious career opportunity, I'd skip this environment for one that doesn't attempt to be what it is not.Interview Questions

any xdrive guru's in here? i think i have a broken transfer case "motor"

BTW, when I scanned errors using BT tool, I did not have a steering wheel sensor error, but I still have that transfer case error - clutch position unknown error. Cleared all errors, started car, and scanned again and transfer case error still comes up (as well as the Christmas tree set of lights on dash).
Well, it was worth a try. Car runs and drives fine, albeit in 2wd and no ABC, no DSC, etc. Just have to see if I want to replace transfer case to get rid of errors.
Don't worry. After they changed my ECU from MSD80 to MSD81, I found I can not code in my professional BT tool! (I was interested to see what they programmed my speed limiter to be, and I think the setting is in the coding section. After contacting them it doesn't sound like I'll be able to code anytime soon either!) Did you cycle from ignition on to ignition off back to ignition on after clicking "Yes"?
This is really strange, because these errors all came up with me even though I didn't touch the bottom of the car, and they all went away after the steering angle sensor adjustment... I had reset the clock and date, renitialized the sunroof, made sure the one touch operation of the windows worked,... I hope you didn't fry the transfer case running in 2WD mode, (kind of like you were towing the car incorrectly as a bad analogy.)

HP board gives Leo $10bn more funny money
The board of directors at IT giant Hewlett-Packard think that HP's stock is undervalued and that the company needs to bolster the earnings per share that the company will report in future quarters. Thus the board has given CEO Leo Apotheker an additional $10bn in funny money to send in truckloads encrypted packets down to Wall …
Invest in technology
HP should start reinvesting in technology or buying key companies. Logmein seems to fit perfectly with their PC business and is a must have for their fledgling tablet entry...might be too late by the time it is available.
Pick me..
Is that Simon in front of the the mic..?
Looking for an exit strategy are you, Mr Coward?
Simon Says No
just a crazy IT person who knows something that would help HP get into the sw game.....and yes i have 500 shares....wishing I had 5000
Or is it...
Their logo and name are overvalued?
"The share repurchases were also designed to counteract the dilution caused by shares issued under employee stock plans "
Disingenous in the extreme.
I don''t know any HP staff who have bought Shares under the new Employee Stock Plan - it was a pathetic 5% discount.
Ah, hang on, I do know a few "employees" who have bought "Shares", here they are:
So, that would be 1.5 Sun Microsystems then? Or 50 of Larry's yatchs. Or 270-odd Hurd payoffs.
Re: $10bn?
Actually, it is more like 1.8 Sun Microsystems, net of cash.
2 Suns
With the cash at Sun it only cost 5B. Was it HP that said no to Larry about taking the hardware business? Is Mark a genius or stupid lucky?
RE: Re: $10bn?
Maybe I missed it, but do we have a standard Reg unit of corprorate excess/stupidity? Counting in Larrys where one Larry = 1 Ellison yatch @ $200m-a-pop might give too many large numbers of Larrys (and the idea of multiple Larrys would probably make most readers' skins crawl!).

Last night, I finished reading the second part of the Miss Peregrine series by Ransom Riggs. Hollow City, the sequel, does not disappoint. I found this to be even more gripping than the first book; in fact, there were many times when I audibly gasped, or said things out loud like "Ohmygod!" or "Oh no!" One time in class, when my students were independently reading, I gasped so loud, I covered my mouth to prevent any other sounds from coming out. 308 more words

But, seeing as he was light on other options, it was the best he could do given the circumstances.His spark tightened painfully at the recollection, but he had little time to linger on it. Outside, something that might have been a muffled human voice reached his audio receptors.

Human ch1HumanChapter 1: The attackThe sun was shining brightly as Bumblebee and Raf where driving around in Jasper. The Decepticons were very quiet the last few weeks. It even made Optimus worried about it.So everyone kept themselves busy. Ratchet would work on something, Optimus would go out on a patron or watch the screens for any Decpeticon activity. Miko would drag Bulkhead to one of those monster truck shows or rock with her guitar. Jack would be hanging around with Smokescreen or driving around Arcee.Raf was enjoying the cold breeze blowing in hair as he held his head out Bumblebee's window. "This is great, Bee!" he said as Bee drove a bit faster.Raf smiled when Bee set his radio on and play a good song. They kept driving around until two black cars drove behind them. 'Uho!' thought Bumblebee as he saw them."What is it, Bumblebee?" Raf asked as he saw Bumblebee speeding up. Bumblebee made some sounds, telling Raf what was going on. "What?!

I'll Always Be There :Chp. 17:Chapter 17: From Dusk to DawnLying on the cold dark floor of the brig, Cole cried softly. Everything was aching now. Every inch of him was hurting in some form or another. Clawing at the ground, Cole dragged himself to the nearest wall, struggling to sit up.Looking down, Cole whimpered in agony because everything was spinning. Closing his optics, Cole set his head on his knees and continued to cry softly. "I should have listened. I shouldn't have followed dad and Bulkhead through the ground bridge, and then none of this would have happened. If I would have just done as I was told I would be home safe and sound. BUT NO! I was an idiot!"Sobbing, Cole coughed hard, so hard he covered his mouth and hacked violently. Pulling his hand away from his mouth, Cole froze.The sight of energon was unmistakable for its illuminating blue properties, and Cole's hand was covered in it. He was leaking energon internally. Looking up at the door, Cole's hand trembled.Ratchet ha
