If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

September 2014
I highly recommend this tour. Our guide Daniel was great and informative. He didn't rush the tour at all, which I really appreciated. I really enjoyed navigating the public transportation and being within the city like a native. This is a great way to get used to the city and getting rid of any apprehensions you may have to travel around given everything everyone says about the city. As for the Favela, please do it! The people are really welcoming and you don't feel so awkward for visiting. There's also other favelas to visit. Once you see this one you'll want to explore the others so keep that in mind. Santa Teresa was also a great town to visit. Wish the trolley was operating, but also good to know the history and controversy of the accident which occurred there.
September 2014
The highlight of the trip. Informative and packed. Lots of walking at a moderate pace.

Vt. trial for nuke protesters nearingBy DAVE GRAM
THE Associated Press | November 23,2012MONTPELIER Six elderly Massachusetts women are scheduled to go on trial next week on charges they chained themselves to the gate at the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant two days after the state was hammered by the remnants of Hurricane Irene.
The women, all members of the Shut It Down Affinity Group, traveled to the plant gate in Vernon on Aug. 30, 2011, used a chain and padlock to lock the entrance gate and chained themselves to the fence, members of the group said.
It was one of about 22 protests the group has mounted against the reactors continued operation in recent years. There have been five similar protests since the one that triggered the trespass charges on which the women are to be tried next week.
The six were identified as 93-year-old Frances Crowe, 82-year-old Nancy First and 68-year-old Patricia Paki Wieland, all of Northampton, 73-year-old Hattie Nestel, of Athol, 69-year-old Ellen Graves, of West Springfield, and Mary Kehler, also known as Betsey Corner, 64, of Colrain.
Neither Windham County States Attorney Tracy Kelly Shriver, nor her deputy, Steven Brown, who is handling the case, would say why that particular protest was selected from nearly two dozen similar events in recent years as the one that would produce charges.
Historically the Windham County states attorneys office has not filed charges against Vermont Yankee protesters, Shriver said.
Two of the protesters, Crowe and Nestel, said there was nothing unusual about their behavior at the plant gate compared with other protests. But they said Vernon police Chief Mary Beth Hebert expressed displeasure to them that they would hold a protest two days after Irene caused widespread flooding in southern Vermont, spreading public safety personnel thin.
Calls to Heberts office on Wednesday seeking comment were not immediately returned.
Shriver and Brown refused to say whether the proximity to the storm-related emergency is what prompted the trespass charges against the women. The charges carry a potential penalty of three months in jail and a $500 fine for each defendant.
Crowe said she had had a long career in such protests and previously served time in jail. She spent three months in jail in Cranston, R.I., after being arrested during a protest against nuclear weapons in that state, she said.
She said she was pleased her Vermont activities were drawing a stiffer reaction from authorities.
We are very honored. Theyre finally taking us seriously and theyre taking us to trial, Crowe said.
Asked how many time she had been arrested in such protests, she pointed to the fact that war, nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants continue to exist. Not enough, she said. I dont know. I dont count. But I know I havent achieved what Im trying to achieve.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER The state auditor questioned Vermonts role in the liquor business in a new report...

NDSU Safe Zone receives grant
The NDSU Safe Zone Ally Program was awarded a $5,000 grant from the Philanthrofund Foundation (PFund) to develop the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Queer (LGBTQ) Dakota Campus Alliance. The Safe Zone program was one of only 13 grant proposals out of 26 to be awarded a grant through the competitive selection process.
The LGBTQ Dakota Campus Alliance will provide outreach, training and education, support and resources to colleges and universities throughout the region of North and South Dakota. Building upon the existing Safe Zone Ally Program model at NDSU, campus partners will be invited to participate in campus assessments of need, training and education around sexual orientation and gender identity among college student populations and consultation services to develop campus-specific ally networks. Utilizing partnerships with NDSU Extension Services, the Alliance also will provide training, resources and consultation to Extension Agents working with youth development programs in every county across the states of North and South Dakota.
Although the grant was developed by Kara Gravley-Stack, outreach coordinator for the Equity and Diversity Center, other contributors on the project include Rachelle Vettern, NDSU Extension Service; Angela Mathers, graduate assistant for the Equity and Diversity Center; and Joshua Boschee, NDSU Career Services and president of the Pride Collective and Community Center.
The PFund Foundation is headquartered in Minneapolis and is focused on advancing social justice for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered and Queer communities in the Upper Midwest.

England determined to be 'hard to beat'
ESPN Staff
January 14, 2013
Rowntree wants England to set the standard in this year's Six Nations © Getty Images
Graham Rowntree has fired a warning shot to England's Six Nations rivals by promising that they will be "hard to beat" in this year's competition.
Speaking ahead of England's opening match with Scotland on February 2, assistant coach Rowntree said that the team will be aiming to kick-on from their historic win over New Zealand in December that will see them start the Championship as favourites - but they are taking nothing for granted.
"We start at a ground zero," Rowntree told The Independent. "We've had it all planned for weeks. Our bedrock statement is this: hard to beat; you will get nothing easy from us. We will be talking about giving the opposition what they don't want.
"That is an Andy Farrell expression and it is a great one. We caught the All Blacks out like that, because of intensity at the breakdown, in the tackle, and counter-rucking, and that helped us to the high point."
England will face a Scotland side reeling from a disastrous end of year campaign that cost coach Andy Robinson his job but Rowntree does not expect anything but a tough challenge in their season-opener. "They worry me," he said. "There is nothing more dangerous in sport than the team with nothing to lose. They will come under two interim coaches, with a new approach and a new-look team. They are us a year ago, and that worries me."

Angie's review
bookshelves: good-uns, retellings, ya
Nov 12, 07
bookshelves: good-uns, retellings, ya
Read in October, 2007
I read this in one big gulp the day it showed up on my doorstep. I've flirted with the thought of reading an Alex Flinn book for awhile now and just never got around to it. Beastly was the perfect point of entry. Loved the title, loved the cover, loved the back jacket excerpt. Set in contemporary NYC, this version is told from the Beast's perspective as he recounts the tale of how a scorned gothgirl witch changed him into a beast and his subsequent efforts to regain his human form (and perhaps a little actual humanity while he's at it). What I loved about this book was the way Flinn absolutely threw her story (and her characters) into the modern world of teenagedom. If a 16-year-old former cock of the walk high school student suddenly found himself a big beastie, he'd, well, once he got over the social mortification of it all, he'd totally find himself a chat room for transformation survivors where he could take advantage of his anonymity and make snarky remarks. And that's exactly what Kyle does. The book opens with a transcript from one of these chats, and they are interspersed throughout the rest of the narrative. They are the most hilarious parts of the book. BeastNYC, SilentGirl, Froggie, and GrizzlyGuy talk about their struggles as three transformed beings (and one wannabe). The discussion is moderated by the mysterious Mr. Anderson and as the familiar fairy tale characters took shape I couldn't stop myself laughing out loud. This B&B story hits everything right and the changes Ms. Flinn made enhanced her grittier version of the tale. For instance, Flinn's Beast is more akin to a dark superhero. Batman prowling the streets of Gotham City at night. He even takes a new name--Adrian--symbolizing his complete reversal in fortune, bleak new outlook on life, and ultimate rejection of the boy he used to be. In addition, the reader gets to catch the whole transformation thing as it happens. In most versions, we come to it way after the fact. Often the Beast has been languishing under his curse for hundreds of years. In this case, Kyle/Adrian has just two years to find true love and break the spell. I liked that we got in on how he coped with it all, as opposed to getting it in retrospect. This is also the first version I've read where Beauty's family didn't want her. Where, by all accounts, she's had a rougher life than he has. It makes it that much sweeter when these two people who have suffered much find not only love, but a way out.

Dan Kwong: What? No Ping-Pong Balls?
Dan Kwong's What? No Ping-Pong Balls? Celebrates a Mother's Life
Highways Performance Space and Gallery, Off Olympic Blvd (1651 18th Street Santa Monica, CA 90404)
Full Price
Our Price
Veteran performance artist Dan Kwong finds inspiration close to home for his latest show, What? No Ping-Pong Balls? Collaborating with noted taiko drummer Kenny Endo, Kwong uses music -- in addition to archival footage and his trademark comical props -- to tell the story of his mother, Momo Nagano (1925-2010). The multimedia performance centers on how Nagano, an eccentric Japanese-American artist and single mother, prevailed over sexism and racism throughout her very long and distinguished life. Borrowing the title of her autobiography, Kwong maps his mother's journey from her all-American girlhood and war-time internment, then on to her defiant marriage, taboo-shattering divorce and final transition into a Venice Beach hippie. Attend this tale of a mother, artist and pioneer at Highways Performance Space, Los Angeles's hub of experimental theater, dance, solo drama and multimedia performance.
* Additional fees apply.

A few years ago, my childhood friend Elaine Johnson and I decided that we wanted to collaborate on a project together. We tossed a few things around and finally settled on a story about a grown up Nemo from Little Nemo. I wrote a few things. She sketched a few things. And nothing came of it for one reason or another.
Now, with the explosion of different Little Nemo projects out there, we've decided to get all of this together and finally put out a Nemo web comic.
I hope this doesn't come off as an attempt to cash in on Nemomania, because it's not. We had these ideas awhile back and then LIFE happened and stopped us. Then, as Elaine was getting to work on the strip, Alan Moore announces a project that's just like ours. Great minds think alike.
Or, in the case of Alan Moore and myself, "great minds sometimes research public domain characters."
I hope you enjoy our project in the weeks to come and I hope you'll judge it on its own merits rather than as a comparison to all the other Nemo stuff that's out there at the moment. At the very least, it's free online, so we got that going for us.
Here are some of Elaine's wonderful sketches so you can get a glimpse of all the wild and wonderful characters we are working on. I do hope you'll come back every Friday for our adventures.

MRI Interventions grew revenue 58% in Q4
Send this to a friend
- Cole Epley
- Staff writer- Memphis Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
For a company that hasn't even been trading publicly for a year, MRI Interventions Inc. is likely to be turning some heads in the biotechnology space.
The Memphis-based developer of minimally invasive surgical applications grew quarterly revenues 58 percent to $1.9 million through Dec. 31; year-over-year revenues grew 34 percent to $5.1 million.
In a release, CEO Kimble Jenkins said the company "significantly improved" its balance sheet through the year, reducing total liabilities by $13.6 million and improving its annual net loss by 31 percent to $5.7 million.
With a pair of gene therapy trials expected to give MRI Interventions (OTC BB: MRIC) some tailwinds through 2013, Jenkins said he anticipates having adequate capital to introduce the company's ClearPoint product to the commercial market.
"We ended the year with $1.6 million in cash, which we believe, when coupled with the net proceeds of approximately $10 million from the equity financing we closed in January 2013, will provide us with the capital to complete the commercial rollout of our ClearPoint product," he said.
The ClearPoint product affords surgeons real-time MRI guidance for procedures on the brain; as of March 1, the product was in 19 facilities across the U.S., including The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, the National Institutes of Health and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

Depth pays off for BlackhawksCHICAGO (AP) - The Chicago Blackhawks would love to get big contributions from Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane in the Stanley Cup finals against the Boston Bruins.
But depth pays off.
The Blackhawks are now three wins from their second championship in four years after taking a 4-3 triple-overtime thriller from the Bruins in Game 1. It didn't matter that their biggest stars were largely quiet. They got enough contributions from their secondary players to escape with a win.
Center Michal Handzus says it's "been the depth that drives this team."
Game 2 is tonight in Chicago.

President Obama Honors NASCAR Sprint Cup Champion Jimmie Johnson
Today, President Obama congratulated Jimmie Johnson on his fifth straight NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship and welcomed other 2010 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers, Denny Hamlin, Matt Kenseth, Kyle Busch, Jeff Gordon, Clint Bowyer, Kurt Busch and Jeff Burton to the White House. During his remarks, the President reflected that the last time many of the drivers were at the White House he was honoring Jimmie Johnson for his third straight championship:
And that's why Jimmie is not just one of the best drivers of all time -- he's up there with some of the great sports dynasties. If you think about it, only the Boston Celtics, the Yankees and the Canadiens have ever won more than four titles in a row. And now Jimmie is breathing down the necks of Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty for the most NASCAR titles ever, which is not bad for the son of a machine operator and a school bus driver who still has plenty of seasons ahead of him.
Jimmie's talent has been to make a very difficult, demanding sport look easy. But this year, the Number 48 team also showed its toughness. They entered the last race of the Chase trailing, and ended up pulling off an extraordinary comeback.
The President also commended the contributions NASCAR has made to the country, particularly through the support of military families:
Now, what also makes NASCAR special is the difference that it makes in the lives of so many people, especially our troops and their families. And I personally thanked all these guys for what they've been doing on behalf of military families, who are obviously huge fans of NASCAR.
Last month, the drivers and staff toured Walter Reed hospital, served dinner to 400 wounded warriors and their loved ones. NASCAR has been a huge supporter of the Joining Forces program that Michelle and Dr. Jill Biden have set up to support military families. This morning, Jimmie made a special visit to the Pentagon to spend time with folks over there. And later this week, NASCAR will be honoring our military and first responders again in Richmond the night before the anniversary of 9/11.
So I want to congratulate Jimmie. I want to congratulate all the drivers who are on the stage for their extraordinary success, for the success of NASCAR, and for everything that they do for our country.

If not, I think Linus Omark for Bernier straight up woulde be a win-win. None of these players have proved a damn thing and are regarded as potential all-stars in their respective, key positions. But hell, anyone of the 29 other teams could use Bernier, so trying to come up with a valid list is pointless… ]]> ructation

Jan 13, 2011Ferrari: the Race Experience, waiting for Gran Turismo 5, is a good racing game based on realistic phisic and simulative gameplay; thanks to all the glamor that only Ferrari can give with its cars, and the budget price, the graphic problems can be easly overcome. So, for a PS3 fan of racing games in abstinence, it's highly suggested.
Dec 25, 2010Although visually slick, the cars feel slow. [Christmas 2010]
Jan 3, 2012Ferrari fans will not be disappointed if they're aware that this game is not quite on the same level of other games in the genre.
Jul 30, 2012While Ferrari generally stands for great cars, it unfortunately does not stand for great games. Racing Legends suffers from repetitive gameplay, weak AI and surrealistic car behavior. Racegames have been done so much better before, don't bother buying this one.
Dec 22, 2010The latest game in the Ferrari franchise has been a huge let down due to some licensing problems. The graphics are simply bad and it feels like developer System 3 had to rush this game to get it in stores before the holidays.

Mixed: 1 out of 2

Oct 7, 2010look, for £12 or less if you brought the previous game ..(check out EU Blog for details...) ..you REALLY cant go wrong.
Its no Forza, F1 2010 or GT5... but imo its worth more than £12, and is an fairly decent game.
Sounds is good, music is hit an miss, but you can play your own through the XMB. Graphics are fair, nothing amazing.. but certainly not rubbish. Though outside view is better than FPS driving wheel.. that is quite poor, but it makes up for a good outside view of your Ferrari. ...LOADS of cars!!! decent amount of tracks and has 16 player online, which I haven't tried yet. Good decent Career mode, single player... time trial, hey.. its got everything!
I can think of a lot worse to spend £12 on... thumbs up.… Expand

Reviews from the Web
I lived here for 6 months a few ...
I lived here for 6 months a few years back. No problems noted, my area of the complex was quiet and shady. The management staff were easy to get a hold of and my apartment ( a 1 bed/1 bath) was decent sized.
As you search for your perfect apartment, please keep in mind that rental rates (including specials and discounts) and availability are very fluid in the apartment industry. Based on many factors, the rental rates (including specials and discounts) and availability can actually change not just daily, but hourly, if not even more quickly. While our advertisers do take steps to keep their information current, the rental rates or availability you may find here now at ForRent.com may not be the same as when you contact the communities.

Governor's Teacher Initiative Discussed
Governor's Teacher Initiative Discussed
Lyman Superintendent Doug Eppard expressed to the board of education, at their Monday night meeting, his concern over Gov. Dennis Daugaard's proposed South Dakota Investing in Teachers initiative unveiled during the Governor's state of the state address recently.
"I'm not thrilled with merit pay for teachers," said Eppard. "It's hard on everyone.'
Eppard explained to the board the Governor's proposal to measure schools and teachers by their students' growth, award bonuses to teachers that select to teach math and science and do away with tenure.
The superintendent said legislation like this could hurt teacher moral.
Mr. Eppard stated Lyman staff is excited about the possibility to be compensated for more profession development that the proposal also includes.
No bills have been filed as of yet, but he will watch the issue.

Cops Corner: East County
Date: October 26, 2011
by: Observer Staff
The following information was gathered from incident and arrest reports obtained from the Manatee County Sheriff's Office.
Reported Oct. 12
3 p.m. — 8604 State Road 70 E. (Hess). Fraudulent use of a credit card. The victim accidentally left his credit card on the counter at a service station while paying for gas. After the victim left, an unknown suspect allegedly took the card and used it at Racetrack, McDonald's and Sunoco, totaling $84.49 in fraudulent charges. The victim's bank notified him about the unusual charge pattern and the credit card was cancelled immediately.
Oct. 16
1:58 p.m. — Intersection of Honore Avenue and University Parkway (parking lot). Assist. A vehicle was parked at the rear of the shopping complex when a fire began to smolder inside the vehicle. The Southern Manatee Fire Rescue Battalion chief has taken over the investigation.
Oct. 14
8:30 p.m. — 3300 block of 49th Avenue E. Burglary of a conveyance. Unknown person(s) entered a vehicle through an unlocked driver's side door and removed several items. The person(s) then left the area in an unknown direction of travel.
Oct. 18
12:45 p.m. — 2911 53rd Ave. E. (Walmart). Retail grand theft. A male suspect selected $654.98 in merchandise while a female suspect selected $34.88 in merchandise. The two parties had split up within the store and allegedly did not work together to steal the items. The suspects then passed all points of sale without purchasing the items they had selected.
3:30 p.m. — 2911 53rd Ave. E. (Walmart). Retail theft second or subsequent. The defendant selected items from the store then left the store without purchasing the items. The suspect has two prior convictions for theft. She also reportedly had needles and a crack pipe with her that she threw under the seat in the loss prevention room. The suspect was arrested and transported without incident.
Oct. 19
8:05 p.m. — 2600 block of 27th Street E. Possession of marijuana less than 20 grams. While the responding deputy was driving south on 27th Street E. at 13th Avenue, a vehicle cut in front of him and almost caused him to crash into it. The deputy ran the tag on the vehicle and it came back expired as of Sept. 26. When the deputy stopped the vehicle and approached the driver's door, he reported that he could smell a heavy odor of marijuana coming from inside the vehicle. The deputy called for backup. He observed the suspect moving around and leaning forward while he was talking to the driver behind her car. The deputy pulled all of the occupants out of the vehicle. He searched the vehicle and found marijuana where the suspect had been leaning foward. The deputy obtained an affidavit from the driver saying she had seen the suspect with a marijuana grinder containing marijuana. The suspect was placed under arrest. The deputy cut him a break and charged him just with possession of the marijuana and not with possession of paraphernalia.

Heh, I'm glad there's finally a thread with sanity.^_^
Well true love is true, only if you believe in it. If not, it is rejected, so don't expect it to come for you.
TRUE LOVE, If you love him/her, you will appreciate them & care for them, knowing your true inner feelings that you share with or unlike no one else.
You should probably go look for this sweet TRUE LOVE or eventually it will pop out & bite you in the ass.^_^

Lose 10 Pounds in 10 Weeks and Receive $130!*
Weight Watchers at Work, administered by Maricopa County's Wellness Works Program, provides an opportunity for employees/dependents to be rewarded for losing weight when they attend Weight Watchers classes. Employees/dependents have two options for completing the program. They can attend Weight Watchers classes at either:
- A County worksite location. Call 602.248.0303 for locations, or to enroll, or
- A community location. Call 800.651.6000 or visit WeightWatchers.com/Arizona
- A combination of both worksite/community locations
Participants in the Weight Watchers online program are not eligible for the reimbursement.
*Criteria will change starting January 1, 2015. Participants will pay $104.00 for the 8 week session, attend 7 out of 8 sessions, and lose 3% of their body weight to receive a reimbursement of the full $104.00 once the criterion is met.
Employees and their dependents who are covered under a County-sponsored medical plan are eligible to receive the reward. Dependents are defined as a spouse and children ages 10 and up. Children 10-17 may participate in the program when accompanied by an adult participating in a Weight Watchers program and with a doctor's permission note containing the child's goal weight.
Program Requirements*
A $130 reimbursement will be awarded to the employee via their paycheck (reimbursement is considered taxable income) if the employee/dependent meets these requirements:
- Must be enrolled in a County-sponsored medical plan
- Must attend the entire class for 8 out of 10 Weight Watchers classes. (The first week weigh-in and class is considered week 1.)
- Must lose 10 pounds by the end of the 10-week period

- The Weight Watchers at Work Reimbursement Form
- The Weight Watchers Booklet (page with participant's name, barcode, and number)
- Weight documentation (weekly attendance and weight log)
After verifying coverage and ensuring that the attendance and weight loss goals have been met, the appropriate information will be submited to County Payroll for processing of the reimbursement.
Participants may earn an unlimited number of rewards by attending additional 10-week programs and meeting the criteria.
*Criteria will change starting January 1, 2015. Participants will pay $104.00 for the 8 week session, attend 7 out of 8 sessions, and lose 3% of their body weight to receive a reimbursement of the full $104.00 once the criterion is met.
