This week, we've been putting both the iPad 4 and the Microsoft Surface tablet through their paces. In our testing, we're happy to say that both tablets are very solid HTML5 platforms. Internet Explorer 10 on the Surface has a broad, well implemented HTML5 feature set that mostly meets and occasionally exceeds mobile Safari's. On the performance front, the iPad 4 leads in raw JavaScript and Canvas performance while the Surface has a faster SVG implementation. Having comprehensive, high performance HTML5 support is now a "must-have" feature for new mobile devices. For end users, both these devices promise great user experiences from well-designed HTML5 apps.
Going into our testing, we were bringing expectations set by the iPad 3 and our developer hardware for Windows 8. When we reviewed the iPad 3 in the Spring, we were disappointed with iPad performance. Ordinary web pages as well as HTML5 apps had stutter and visible tiling. Raw JavaScript performance was actually lower on the iPad 3 than the iPad 2. In our opinion, it was an underpowered device, so we were not entirely surprised to see the iPad 4 arrive with vastly improved hardware specs so quickly. On the Microsoft front, when we took our first look at the IE10 preview last Fall, we were very impressed with its HTML5 feature list, but wondered if performance would hold up on tablet-grade hardware. Read on to see what we found.
The Microsoft Surface
Since there are already plenty of reviews of the Surface tablet for the regular user, we won't spend much time on its general features except to say that
- The integrated (and very sturdy) kickstand should become a standard tablet feature,
- The mixed keyboard/touch interface that Windows 8 pioneers is a winner
- Bezel gestures to activate control and navigation become natural quickly and are vastly superior than repeatedly jamming the iPad home button
- IE's browser tab management is far superior to mobile Safari.
We'll also note that if you plan to evaluate the Surface yourself, it's *essential* to upgrade the pre-installed Office Preview to the release version. Before upgrading, entering text was absurdly and unpredictably laggy not just in Office, but also in browser-based input fields.
If you're looking for Surface traffic, its user agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.2; ARM; Trident/6.0; Touch)
The Surface supports multi-touch, with up to 5 separately tracked simultaneous touches. Its JavaScript timer resolution is the Windows standard 16ms (or 64 times per second) when on battery power. When plugged in, the timer jumps to what appears to be a 4ms resolution (the same as iOS and Chrome for Android), but the timer became so noisy at this resolution that it was hard to judge. As we've noted before, JavaScript animations that use a setTimeout of zero to pace their progress will now run faster or slower depending on whether the Surface is plugged in or not. Using explicit time or requestAnimationFrame for JavaScript animation is once again highly recommended.
IE10 has a new collection of CSS properties and events to control touch event handling. Many HTML5 apps will want to use the ms-touch-action: none, to suppress OS pre-emption of touch events within their app. WebKit style touchstart, touchend etc. are not available. Instead we have Microsoft's new pointerEvents, which unifies mouse and touch events under one roof. The Surface has a rock-solid implementation of position: fixed, and even makes a college try of supporting background-attachment: fixed - which Mobile Safari still ignores.
HTML5 feature coverage
We tested HTML5 feature presence using Modernizr. IE10 on the Surface has a long list of HTML5 features. This includes indexedDB, CSS animations, 2D and 3D transforms, gradients, transitions, workers, websockets, video and audio playback, and file API. Leapfrogging the iPad 4, IE10 even has a *-implementation of CSS Regions and Exclusions - which we think is a first for a shipping mobile HTML5 browser. Grid layout - which looks to be a permanent IE-only feature is also supported.
There are some notable omissions and deficiencies compared to the iPad 4. There is no support for the input tag for camera or video capture (introduced in iOS 6), the flexbox implementation is the older, superseded version. There is no border-image support (admittedly the border-image support in mobile Safari is not completely correct either.)
Neither platform supports WebGL, but Microsoft has previously said that it won't support it. Nor were the more esoteric HTML5 inputs like color supported. Notifications and server sent events were likewise absent from both platforms.
JavaScript Performance
We ran both the iPad 4 and the Surface through Sunspider and Google's V8 benchmark. Although Sunspider is an imperfect test, it has great historical comparability. The figure below shows the performance of the Surface and iPad 4 indexed to the iPad 2 (1.0). As can be seen, raw JavaScript performance on both platforms is roughly 2x the iPad 2. The iPad 4 has a performance advantage with an average 20% performance edge over than the Surface. On version 7 of the V8 benchmark, the performance difference was more stark. The iPad 4 clocked in at 1565 vs. 775 for the Surface (higher is better), a 2x advantage for the iPad.
SVG Support & Performance
Since IE10 has a hardware-accelerated SVG implementation, we decided to dig into performance for SVG. First, we ran David Dailey's decahedra demo which combines rotating and overlapping shapes with SVG gradient animations. The Surface comfortably handled an entire screenful of 50 shapes with solid performance. In comparison, the iPad 4 started to show visible frame transitions at around 15 shapes. A more dynamic pseudo 3D corridor navigation game, reached approximately 18 fps on the Surface vs. 12 fps on the iPad 4.
The SVG implementation in IE10 on the Surface is rich with a full complement of SVG features. It's fantastic, for example, to see broad support for SVG filter effects like color channel manipulation. We did notice a few minor blemishes. The performance of the lighting effects we tried was very poor (10s+) and the feSpotlight primitive was not supported. Lighting effects were noticeably darker than the reference SVG test images. And although Modernizr reported SMIL support, we were unable to get any declarative SVG animation to run successfully. SVG Filter effects are also imperfect on Mobile Safari, and anyone looking to use them should expect vigorous testing and cross-browser normalization.
Canvas Performance
Raw canvas benchmarks like this one from mindcat showed the iPad 4 with about a 2x advantage over the Surface. In our benchmark, the iPad 4 scored 1.81 vs. the Surface's 0.904. However, in a variety of real world canvas apps we saw perfectly acceptable performance from the Surface. This included canvas color cycling (once guaranteed to bring a mobile browser to its knees) as well as a variety of Impactjs-based games.
Microsoft's own fishbowl demo was also a good stress test of real world canvas use. This demo composites multiple separate canvas contexts together on top of a background video, with sound effects in a separate audio element. There are also CSS transforms and CSS opacities present. With all effects disabled except basic sprite animation, the Surface managed about 110 concurrent sprite animations at 60fps, while the iPad 4 managed about 135. Strikingly, when we enabled more effects (masks, background, shadows and more.), the iPad 4 held up well while the Surface struggled. With all effects enabled except the background water video, shadow effect and audio, the iPad 4 could support about 100 concurrent sprite animations at 60fps, whereas the Surface was able to support only 10. Canvas compositing appears to be a particularly challenging graphics operation for the Surface vs the iPad.
CSS Performance
Early mobile platforms had issues with CSS performance, but we saw good CSS performance with transition and animation effects. Gradients on both platforms were smooth and free of banding.
An Embarrassment of Tablet Riches
The Microsoft Surface and the iPad 4 now join the iPad 2 and the RIM Playbook 2 as impressive HTML5 tablet platforms. Both are a big performance improvement over the iPad 2 - the previous best tablet for HTML5 apps. It's also very encouraging to see Microsoft stepping up to the plate and delivering an HTML5 implementation that's relatively comprehensive with solid performance. There's still work remaining of course. It would be nice to see an SVG from both companies with Flash-quality performance in their next generation tablet. And getting camera and video access from a web page is a notable item on the Surface's to-do list. We're looking forward to reviewing the Surface Pro tablets due early next year with higher powered Intel processors.

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

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Ogier takes lead after Loeb punctures
|Saturday, August 20th 2011, 16:52 GMT
Sebastien Ogier has taken the lead of Rallye Deutschland after his Citroen team-mate Sebastien Loeb lost over a minute with a puncture on the final stage of day two.
The two Citroens had been cruising in one-two formation until the second run through Panzerplatte, when Loeb sustained the damage to his left front tyre.
"In a straight I saw a few rocks on the road and I think it came from that because I was taking it easy. What can we do?" said Loeb.
The eight-time event winner's misfortune has given Ogier a 1m11.3s lead heading into the final day. Not only has Loeb never lost the German round since it has been in the world championship, he has also been unbeaten on all-asphalt World Rally Championship events since 2004.
Dani Sordo continues to hold an outstanding third for Mini, and is edging away from fourth-placed Ford driver Mikko Hirvonen. In another blow for the works Ford team, the recovering Jari-Matti Latvala crashed out of 10th on SS13.
Punctures hit both Kris Meeke (Mini) and Petter Solberg (Solberg Citroen) during the afternoon, but they remain fifth and sixth.
Despite remaining very negative about his driving on the event, Kimi Raikkonen is seventh, recovering from an earlier spin in his Ice 1 Citroen to get back ahead of Henning Solberg (Stobart Ford). Dennis Kuipers had been in front of both and impressing in seventh until his FERM Ford sustained a puncture on Panzerplatte.
Leading positions after SS14: Pos Driver Team/Car Time/Gap 1. Sebastien Ogier Citroen 2h44m43.2s 2. Sebastien Loeb Citroen + 1m11.3s 3. Dani Sordo Mini + 2m10.2s 4. Mikko Hirvonen Ford + 2m43.3s 5.

"Conducted the funeral service" puts it mildly. The account linked above says Helmer was killed on the morning of May 2 when he "left his dugout and was killed instantly by a direct hit from an 8 inch German shell. What body parts could be found were later gathered into sandbags and laid in an army blanket for burial that evening." No chaplain was present, so McCrae "conducted a simple service at the graveside, reciting from memory some passages from the Church of England's 'Order of Burial of the Dead'."
Helmer's grave was marked, but the marking eventually was lost, and he "he is one of the 54,896 soldiers who have no known grave in the battlefields of the Ypres Salien."
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
The last stanza charges future generations to "take up the quarrel against the foe," and we can and should consider carefully who/what that foe is and how best to "take up the quarrel." Nevertheless, as long as we live in an imperfect world where evil vies for our hearts and minds and lives and nations, all of us are called to protect, to guard, to defend -- whether through military service or through civil service or through active, thoughtful citizenship -- the ideas* that good exists, that good will ultimately prevail, and that--until then--it is better to die, physically or in the small daily sacrifices we make for others, in the service of good than it is to pretend that evil does not exist, that the conflict does not exist, and/or that we are not called to serve.
None of us is innocent. None of us is excused. None of us ever can be said to have retired from active duty. We each have been thrown a torch. Will we take what is good and use it for evil to burn, kill, and destroy? Will we, out of fear that we are misusing it, stamp it out and, having blinded ourselves to good, stumble about in evil's darkness? Or will we hold it high to shed as much good light as we can so all can see to work for good.
*When a recruit joins the U.S. military, he/she takes an oath to "support and defend" what? The president? The country? The people? Read the oath here. Here is another Department of Defense article titled "Why Civilian Control of the Military?" -- worth reading.

Doc Rivers stock in Boston is plummeting. Kevin Garnett's isn't far behind. Paul Pierce's future is sadly not really in his own hands, and Danny Ainge might be on the verge of making a deal that could be a fireable offense. While all this is happening, there is one member of the Boston Celtics organization who's stock appears to by slowly turning around. If you look closely, you can see an arc appearing that will help Rajon Rondo re-brand his image this summer. By now we've experienced enough of Rondo to know he isn't the most pleasant human being on the basketball court. Even off the court, he has had issues with personality and maturity. He's had problems with referees, whether bumping them or throwing balls at them. There is also the well-documented trouble with Ray Allen, which aided in some way Allen's departure to Miami. Off the court there was the cameraman incident, which showed him at his worst behind the scenes. The Kris Humphri...

That's what they get for booking a Trekkie convention in the same Chicago hotel the L.A. Kings were staying in.
"This morning, (Kings coach) Darryl Sutter asked a guy in a Star Trek uniform where the team bus was," tweeted TSN's Gord Miller. "Darryl thought he was the hotel doorman."
Political Ring Dept.
Former pro rassler — and ex-Minnesota governor — Jesse "The Body" Ventura is making rumblings about running for president in 2016.
Potential tag-team partners — er, VP candidates — will be vetted on domestic policy, foreign affairs and the step-over toe hold.
• From "Dan Patrick Show" producer Paul Pabst: "Sources: Rutgers in negotiations to bring in Gordon Gee."
• At Fark.com: "Mets finish first-ever series sweep of Scranton."
Throwback player
"I don't wanna say Tim Duncan is old," wrote Greg Cote of the Miami Herald, "but when James Naismith was hunting around for a hoop, it was Tim who handed him a peach basket."
Legs the first to go
News flash: Grant Hill retires from NBA — 13 years after his ankles did.

A man in Chicago broke a world record by riding a Ferris wheel for more than 48 hours.
"He said it was like a typical Cubs season," noted meteorologist Jim Barach of WCHS-TV in Charleston, W.Va. "There were highs, there were lows, and at the end it always finishes at the bottom."
Talking the talk
• Bill Livingston of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, on loose-lipped Ohio State president Gordon Gee: "It's not his first rodeo, and frankly, it's not his first time as the clown at the rodeo."
• Steve Schrader of the Detroit Free Press, on lessons learned from Gee's barbs: "Apparently tying a bow tie too tight can cut off circulation to the brain."
• Timberwolves president Flip Saunders, to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, on Ricky Rubio's leadership ability: "Point guards are not made — they're delivered from heaven."
• Former Canadian gold-medalist Marnie McBean, as quoted in the Toronto Sun, on why rowing is a lot like politics: "We sit on our ass and go backwards."

Totally awsome! My favorite out of the five dvds
I love this anime and all it's sexy bishonen, Weiss and Schwartz included. I give it a 5 for the original version and a three for the dubbed version. I could not stand listening to those corny voices. Omi's dubbed VA got on my nerves. I loved watch the Weiss interview. It's really funny.

Gold Star of Bethlehem 53 53
this product is very beautiful I put this star on the top of my manager scene. I really added in the appearance. I am thinking of ordering another one for the side of my house. January 3, 2014
Beautiful star, great quality Will use this as part of a nativity display i'm creating next year using the angels with the gold highlights to create a cohesive display. January 10, 2014
Star of Bethlehem This is beautiful -- I am very anxious to display at Christmas! January 15, 2014
Better than I expected I never thought about the position of the sun when I purchased this star. It shines on the glittering star all day, so it is constantly "lit". Love it. Glad I chose it. October 15, 2011
Beautiful Bethleham Star I had never seen a star such as this one and when I saw it I just knew I wanted to have it hang over/with the pair of animated angels. The pair of angels was placed in my yard near a tree and I was able to hang the star above and behind the angels, making for a really beautiful scenario. December 22, 2011
A nice touch! Nice quality for the money. Even though the star is rated for outside use, I hung it inside instead of outside. Because the back of the star is just that - the back - the back of the star looks better from the street than it would facing into my living room. Only complaints are a couple bulbs were poking through the mesh but were easily pushed back in, and I could do without the all the glitter. Otherwise, this is a very nice product that I would recommend. December 28, 2011
gold star perfect size for inside window. some glitter does come off so wouldn't subject it to the elements. cord is at top so have to be creative to hide. im really happy with how it looks. December 10, 2012
Just the star I needed Nice. Just wish it were a little brighter. Looks beautiful in my second floor window. It looks like the bright star in the nativity scene. Just what I needed to complement my Christmas decor. December 13, 2012
Gold Star of Bethlehem This star is what I was looking for to use with my outdoor nativity scene. It was a great price on sale. January 8, 2013
Gold Star of Bethlehem I am very pleased with the quality of the Gokd Star and look forward to hanging both of them next Christmas, January 25, 2013
Useful in a variety of ways This a good "gold star" as the size is nice and could be used is a variety of ways. However, it does "drop" gold glitter and needs to be where it will not be disturbed as it is messy. Still, it is very good for whatever use you have for a gold star. February 10, 2013
bright shining star I add a new piece to our outdoor lighting and this was exactly what I wanted. December 30, 2013
GLITTERED GOLD FLAKES OFF The star can be used outside, however, I am a little concerned since the glittered gold was flaking off in the box before I even opened it. November 16, 2012
Not enough lights to see it at night This is a good size star. It is also very sparkly in the sun. However, I can not recommend this star because it needs more lights. The description says that it has 21 lights and that would seem enough, but consider that this star is 24" long. The are incondescent lights, which I prefer, it just needs to have more to make the star stand out at night. December 25, 2012
Star of Bethlehem Very pretty, a lot of glitter. Wish it had more lights on it to outline the actual star shape. We hung it on a window, inside of the house. It is not that bright from the street. A decent value for the price. December 26, 2012
OK but..... I liked the shape and finish on my first seeing the product but upon setting up the star and seeing it at night, it lost some of its appeal to me. The star once lit had no shape. It looked like just a cluster of lights with a little glow of the gold, no star shape. I think if I "play" a spotlight on it at night it might help. December 3, 2013
New decoration for next Christmas Purchased the Gold Star of Bethlehem after Christmas to use next year. I liked this item as it was quite unusual and I wanted something a little unusual, but appropriate. I did test it, when it was received, and appears to be working fine. Looking forward to next year to see how it really adds to my current decorations. January 11, 2014
Looks bettter in the picture I paid 12:00 for the star and I'm glad that is all I paid for it. The star looks like an incomplete kid's art project. The glitter and sequence looked junky as if someone dipped the star in a batch of glue, glitter and sequence and whatever came out of that batch was the way it was going to stay. The metal is sturdy. To make it look pretty - up close, I will need to buy more glitter, glue and sequence March 22, 2013
Disappointed Well, we wanted to place this star above the garage to see from afar, but it is so small and when lit, does not appear to look like a star. I used to have a large lit cross in white lights and wish you sold that product December 22, 2012

Published by Destineer, Developed by Torus
Genres: Racing
US release date: Dec 18th, 2007 | EU release date: -
Narrow scope, but it delivers.
Review written by
Indianapolis 500 Legends, though very narrow in scope, delivers on giving you the classic Indy 500 experience. Some have knocked this game for only having one track, however, that is the whole premise. And it is done very well.
The game spans an 11 race period (1961 through 1971) of the famed race. This span of time, historically, saw the greatest period of innovation that American auto racing has ever seen. Cars began to have spoilers, front wings and even Parnelli Jones' turbine powered jet car (which is included in the game).
You really feel the differences as you progress through the years as well. Top speed in the 1961 cars is about 150-155, however that climbs to 185-190 mph by the end of the decade. The developers have done a great job in making you feel that change in speed.
The game can be played in 2 layers, classic and mission modes. Classic mode allows you to pick a year, number of laps and begin racing. Mission mode actually allows you to recreate and work through specific situations that happened in that year's race. Successfully completing these missions unlocks another year that you can race the 500.
Indianpolis 500 Legends strives for accuracy, and, in my opinion, gets it. There are even changes in the track from year to year. For instance, in 1961, the track's front straightaway was completely brick (The entire track was brick until 1936, hence the nickname, "The Brickyard"). However, in the 1962 race, the front stretch is asphalt with the 1-yard stretch of bricks that lines the start/finish line.
There are two drawbacks to the game. The first is that, while there are many legendary drivers in the game including A.J. Foyt, Jones and Mario Andretti, unless you are a student of the history of the races and the paintjobs, you won't know who you are racing with. There is no indicator that allows you to see precisely who you are racing, but hey, that does add to the realism.
Also, the game has only one track and so once you have completed the missions and raced the 500 for each of the 11 years, you're done. Therefore, the lifespan of the game is rather short.
Lastly, the controls are excellent and very intuitive. The cars of the early years are wide and stable and relatively easy to control, however as designs get more radical and speeds increase, it becomes a little tougher to keep it all together.
All in all, if you're a racing fan, and especially an open-wheel racing fan, this game will give you some solid enjoyment for hours.
No posts yet for this game. Posts make me happy.

Featured Horse: "Dank: Looking for a Filly & Mare Turf Double" by Kathryn Lindquist
Short Excerpt - "Dank (adjective) disagreeably damp, musty, and typically cold. synonyms: damp, musty, chilly, clammy.
The definition above for the word "dank" is from the pages of the Oxford English Dictionary, but it does little to describe the champion mare who bears the same word for a name. Known most prominently as the filly who captured the 2013 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Santa Anita Park, CA, Dank is a British Thoroughbred by Dansili, whose Grandsire was the great Danehill. She is now looking to do something that has never been done before, to win two Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf races, back to back..." CLICK HERE to read more!
Featured Owner: "Stavros Niarchos, Flaxman Holdings Ltd." by Kristen Neiding
Short Excerpt - "As Americans, we tend to think of the Breeders' Cup as the Eclipse Awards Championships. In the weeks leading up to the races this year, there was much discussion about the four three year old colts in the Classic, and the implications for Horse of the Year...
...With so much focus on the Classic three year olds, some of the other storylines were lost. For instance, did you realize that the Japan-bred winner of the Mile, and the dominant New York turf horse share something in common? Something they also share with two-time Mile winner, Miesque, and champion sire Nureyev? They all campaigned under owner Stavros Niarchos, or his banner, Flaxman Holdings Ltd..."

Featured Trainer: "André Fabre" by Kate Weissmuller
Short Excerpt - "André Fabre was born on December 9, 1945 in Spain. His father was a diplomat and their family lived a comfortable life in Europe. Fabre attended a university and graduated with a law degree but decided to pursue a career in thoroughbred horse racing.
To become acquainted with horses and the horse racing business, young Fabre worked in a stable as a groom in France. After obtaining ground and behavioral understanding of the horses, Fabre was promoted to schooling rider..." CLICK HERE to read more!
Featured Jockey: "Florent Geroux" by Sarah Troxell
Short Excerpt - "When Florent Geroux was growing up, his father worked as a jockey and then began training horses. This put the younger Geroux in the midst of the racing world from the beginning, and he eventually enrolled in the riding academy Afasec at the age of thirteen. When he began riding professionally, he went on to become a leading apprentice in France.
Geroux first rode at Keeneland in the fall of 2007, after coming to the United States to ride for trainer Patrick Biancone..." CLICK HERE to read more!

The media obviously mentions the Devils sweep of the Rangers a few years ago but fail to mention that Hank was injured. Not to mention, the Rangers are a completely different team now than they were then. Other than that series, Hank has owned Brodeur.
By the way, I have read every rule I could find. I do not see a penalty rule for a player who closes his hand on the puck and passes it in the defensive zone. If he closed his hand on the puck in an attempt to stop play or if he lifted the puck up off the ice and then passed it, it's a penalty. But I have seen no rule that addresses what MDZ did that would result in a penalty. I know Devils fans don't believe that, but I could not find a rule with any language that would penalize what Del Zotto did.
