A trip down memory lane…
Several years back I had cause to write up a little story about the very first gay porn I purchased. For some reason, I came across the file on my hard drive just now and figured I might as well post it here. I've altered it slightly because the original context wouldn't make too much sense posted now, but it's mainly intact and the actual events themselves I've left unchanged. Apologies in advance for so much text on a porn blog!
I can distinctly remember, as if it were yesterday, the moment years ago I stepped in to an adult video store and made what was a monumental and, indeed, life-changing discovery. So nervous and tense, eyes darting around and on the lookout for anyone I knew that might spot me walking in to this place and thus discover my secret, I must have been quite the pathetic yet hilarious sight!
It had taken me months to build up the courage to make the drive out to this adult video store, and the extent of planning that went in to it was quite absurd – it had to be far enough away from home and school that no one I knew would be around or even know it existed; it had to have a parking lot in back so my car would not be visible from the street; the journey could only be made in the middle of the night, when few would be up and about to see me. Once inside the store, it was almost as if I ended up right back at square one and had an even greater mountain to climb. Now came the perilous struggle to make my way to the gay section! Planted in front of a rack of straight porn tapes (Yes! VHS tapes!), I'd let only my eyes quickly and discretely glance over to the wall of gay videos several racks down and in a corner of the store. I picked up and perused straight tape after straight tape, pretending to study them intently and with great interest, while actually sneaking glances over at the box covers many feet away and covered in barely discernible images of male flesh. Any slight ounce of courage I'd build up to take a step closer to the gay videos would be immediately quashed by the slightest suspicion the clerk looked in my general direction or another customer was aware of what I was up to.
Eventually and after what must have been ages, the moment seemed right. No other customers were around. The clerk was busy rewinding and reloading the tapes in a wall-high stack of VHS machines that must have been broadcasting to some booths in a part of the store I'd not even seen yet. With a straight VHS tape still in my hands and held up in front of me like a shield protecting me from suspicion and judgement, I inched my way closer and closer to that lonely wall of gay videos. Fearing the shuffling of my feet across that linoleum floor was broadcasting to all within earshot someone was making his way towards "That Part of the Store", I nonetheless moved on, hoping beyond hope no one had noticed or could see me.
The closer I got to that corner of the store, the more I could decipher with each nervous glance I made towards it. Flesh-colored shapes exposed themselves to be bare pecs and muscular torsos; obscure faces confessed their unique features – eye colors, stubble, sly smiles and seductive expressions; subtle hints of what each tape might feature became that much more apparent as the suggestive poses and lettering became more and more focused.
And then I saw staring back at me a pair of eyes that made me stop in my tracks, forget any and all that was around me, and freeze in total shock and surprise. They were blue and piercing and looked both at and through me, and they sat amidst so stunningly handsome a face that I could hardly grasp what I was looking at. Those eyes? That face? That chest? On the cover of a gay porn movie?! Perhaps I should not be so ashamed and scared of being in this corner of the store after all!
They were the eyes of what had to be one of the most stunningly beautiful guys I'd ever laid eyes on, and they were on the cover of a gay porn movie! And this stunningly hot man did not look shameful or deviant or embarrassed; he was, to me, nothing short of ideal and it was obvious that tape showcased this very same young man engaging in sex with other men – sex that I'd learn, upon watching this film, could be passionate, intimate, energetic, captivating and absolutely beautiful. There was no way anything or anyone on that tape could be anything but exquisite and marvelous or the slightest bit worthy of shame or embarrassment.
I was fixated on that tape. I had to have that tape. Any sense of fear or anxiety in being seen with it was quickly abandoned. I grabbed it off the shelf and confidently strode to the counter to purchase it, and I walked out of that store with my head held high, a copy of that tape in my hand, a newfound pride and excitement in my heart, and overwhelmed with the desire to get home and watch it and see every amazing bit of action on it.
Things have changed quite a bit from back when I walked in to that remote porn store so many years ago, but so much stays the same. What was anxiously driving to the outskirts of town for me has been replaced by nervously clicking links and loading pages for others; hiding from the eyes of clerks and strangers as I did takes the form of minimizing windows and erasing browser history for those since; the quiet and drawn out shuffle I made towards that corner of the store years ago is instead a tense and wary session on the computer for people eager to see what they set out to see, yet fearful of discovery by strangers and loved ones. I hope, however, that what happened for me when I stared in to the eyes of that guy on that box cover back then is happening for countless others as they arrive at CorbinFisher.com today – fear is replaced by pride, anxiety by excitement, shame by enthusiasm; that you realize here, as I did in that corner, sex between men is wonderful, is fascinating, is enthralling, and is beautiful – whether it takes place in a film shot in Europe many years ago, among the young men of CorbinFisher.com today, or in your own home and life with whomever is lucky enough to be with you.
Did you ever have a similar moment? Was there a movie or model that did that for you? Was their a particular CF video, image, or guy you stumbled across one day that made you stop and stare or changed your view of guys, porn, and even yourself? I'd love to hear your stories!

Manufacturing production rose 0.2 percent in October. At the same time, output in the sector was revised down from an original estimate of 0.5 percent in September to 0.2 percent. As such, manufacturing production has been weaker over the past three months than desired. Capacity utilization among manufacturers has also edged lower over this time frame, down 77.8 percent in July to 77.2 percent in October.
On a year-over-year basis, manufacturing production has risen 3.4 percent since October 2013. That indicates modest growth over the past 12 months, and yet, it also reflects a deceleration in the year-over-year pace since peaking in July at 4.9 percent. (continue reading…)

I like a lot of this hotel: the decoration, the food offered, the service, the staff inside the room, the location. Up to now, it's the best hotel I've lived in. Highly recommend. - Anonymous
Brilliant location, perfect for shopping and sightseeing. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, and a handy bus stop about 50m away. I phoned the managers when I arrived at the airport and there was someone waiting for me with a key when I got to the apartment. The apartment is clean and basic and very spacious. Loads of books and DVDs provided, mostly in Italian. Proper full sized hairdryer. - Anonymous
This is a very pleasant small private hotel within a typically Milanese
quiet courtyard; from the street you would not know it was a hotel
except for a brass sign on the building wall. The staff were welcoming
and helpful, and the room was clean and well equipped, and nicely
furnished with period furniture. Breakfast was typically Italian with
fresh fruit salad, cereals, croissants, meats, hard boiled eggs, etc.
The staff made our coffee/tea to order (we had cappuccinos). The
location is excell - Anonymous

Employment set to increase
London's employers say they are intending to hire more people. That's according to a survey by a large recruitment agency. It shows a nine per cent increase in the number of people businesses based in the capital are planning to take on.
World tour for Battersea Power Station revamp
The multi billion pound development at Battersea Power Station is being taken on a global tour in a bid to attract businesses and retailers to take up residence at the site. The Grade II listed power station is being restored and homes, cafes and shops will be built around it.
Consultation starts on QPR regeneration plans
Consultation gets underway today over plans by Queens Park Rangers Football Club to redevelop hundreds of acres of brownfield land in West London. The regeneration project would provide 55,000 new jobs and 24,000 new homes as well as a new stadium for the club.
Small businesses ask to be at heart of plans for economic growth
Business leaders are calling on the London Enterprise Panel (LEP) to put small businesses at the heart of plans for economic growth. A report by the Federation of Small Businesses says local growth opportunities could be increased if there was more consultation with small businesses.
"The LEP is crucial to delivering local economic growth across London - but there is still plenty that needs to be done. It is important that the LEP has greater teeth and is able to filter in ideas to the Mayor and not simply be a sounding board that responds to the plans set. The LEP will be handling millions of public money between now and 2021 and it is important to understand how it is being spent. Because the sums of money involved are so large it is vital that the LEP is more accountable so local authorities in the Capital, businesses and the public can be confident they will deliver for the London economy."
The Royal Mail to trial new hours
The Royal Mail is set to trial new Sunday opening hours starting this weekend.
Around 100 delivery offices across the UK will be open this Sunday and parcel deliveries will be made within the M25 area.
The move comes as the Royal Mail is experiencing higher than ever parcel volumes attributed to the rise in online shopping across the country.
The company says extended trading hours mean many of those who aren't able to collect their parcels during the week will now have the flexibility to claim their goods.
The trial will begin with opening hours between 12pm and 4pm.
Housing market in London shows signs of cooling
The housing market in London is showing signs of cooling as the gap widens between asking prices and the amount buyers are prepared to pay. Figures from property analysts show just 11% of London postcodes recorded increases in values in August, compared with 19% of areas outside the capital. The typical time it takes to sell a London property has almost doubled since February, from just over two and-a-half weeks to nearly five weeks. However, this is still around a week less than the average across England and Wales, where the time it takes to sell a home has edged up to just over six weeks.
High streets in London could be boosted by £23 billion 'purple pound' by attracting disabled people and their families
High streets in London could be missing out on £23 billion worth of so-called 'purple pound' business because they are not accessible enough to disabled people. Government research revealed shopping is the most difficult experience for accessibility, followed by going to the cinema and theatre. The Minister for Disabled People, Mark Harper, wants businesses to think more about how they can make their services more inviting for disabled people.
African business is booming in Berkshire

Motorola is hoping to get its DreamGallery TV technology in front of more eyeballs. The company just announced plans to expand the reach of the platform.
If you aren't familiar with the DreamGallery experience, it's the user navigation component of Motorola's Medios+ platform for multi-screen video distribution. It's also designed to make TV more like surfing the web. It boasts easy, personalized searches, as well as customized media and smart recommendations—on more devices.
The tech used to need HTML5 to make the magic happen. However, Motorola just announced plans to put DreamGallery in an expanded range of devices, via new virtualized cloud-rendering technology. The upgrade has a virtual module that renders HTML5 in the cloud, so it's not needed at the box.
"DreamGallery is extending its award-winning multi-screen navigation and entertainment experience to millions of Motorola set-tops in subscriber homes today," said John Burke, senior VP and GM of Motorola Mobility's converged solutions. "Consumers want to find content faster and enjoy it on any device. Our service provider customers are eager to address this demand with rich DreamGallery experiences, but are constrained by the cost and complexity of upgrading their set-top boxes. Now, this cloud-based virtual module lets them deliver this next-generation experience to more subscribers."
DreamGallery has been widely deployed in Europe, but the movement is growing in North America. Verizon recently announced plans to add the DreamGallery experience to FiOS Home in the United States.

Eastern Oregon 2: Interiors
By nancy hill
15 Jun 2008
Many buildings in Eastern Oregon are said to be haunted. Towns in this part of the state are old, and life was harsh for the pioneers brave enough to try to build a new life there. Gold, too, brought prospectors who were more likely to meet ill fate than good.
The past is alive in these buildings, and the line between past and present isn't quite so clear. I had the sense that the spirits of those who had once lived within these walls were still there, their stories suspended in the atmosphere. Getting drawn into what went before was seductive, and I couldn't help but wonder how wrong we may be to define time by years rather than by perception.

Intelligent, rich and sophisticated; Oswald Cobblepot puts up a gentlemanly front, but behind closed doors he is the angered, power hungry criminal known as The Penguin. He shows flashes of compassion sometimes, but he is dominated by a desire to be respected and to control those around him.
A botanical biochemist, Pamela Isley is a fervent eco-terrorist out to save the world's plant life by any means necessary. She often finds herself at odds with Batman, though they have, on occasion, fought on the same side. Pre-New 52 she had a long friendship with Harley Quinn and, in fact, gave her meta-human abilities. Ivy, Harley, and Catwoman later teamed up as the Gotham City Sirens. Post-New 52, she was a member of the Birds of Prey for a time before betraying them to further her cause.

New bike trails add challenge on East Tiger Mountain
State workers teamed with mountain bikers to build and reroute trails off Highway 18.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Northwest travel guides
Trail of the month
Where: East Tiger Mountain (Tiger Mountain State Forest)
By the numbers: Seven trails including two new bike trails and another that has been rerouted — a total of 12 miles. The Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) hopes to secure grants to build another 13 miles in the near future.
Facilities: Two parking lots: East Tiger Mountain Summit Parking Lot (also called "Lower Trailhead") and Tiger Summit Trailhead (also called "Upper Trailhead"). Big enough to hold about 100 cars. The East Tiger Mountain Summit Parking Lot has a bathroom but no water fountain.
Background: DNR partnered with the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance to build some challenging courses, Joy Ride Trail and Fully Rigid Trail. They also rerouted Silent Swamp Trail, which had been in a wet area prone to erosion.
The trails: Fully Rigid Trail (a half-mile) is considered the most technically challenging of the three trails. The first .2 miles is an old logging road covered with vegetation. You will ride over lots of tree roots and rocks with some challenging tight turns as you descend toward the junction of Silent Swamp and Joy Ride trails. Sam Jarrett, DNR Snoqualmie Corridor recreation manager, project supervisor, advises riders to start at the top of the trail at Crossover (Road 5500) and descend to Joy Ride Trail, continuing the descent along Joy Ride down to NW Timber Trail and back to the trailhead.
Silent Swamp Trail (1.5 miles) is more of a cross-country trail. Riders cross a 70-foot bridge over Spring Fork Creek before facing several rock obstacles. Expect some challenging climbs before you hit a 170-foot elevated boardwalk. This trail connects with Preston Railroad Grade Trail and Joy Ride Trail.
Joy Ride Trail (1 mile) starts at an 80-foot bridge over the Fish Hatchery Creek and then through a mature second-growth area of firs, vine maples and hemlocks. Expect four tight turns. The last half of the trail is fast with a mix of twisty and rocky segments as you head toward NW Timber Trail.
Restrictions: Discover Pass required for parking at trailhead. Also open to hikers and dogs, though bike traffic can make it challenging for pedestrians. Open daily, dawn until dusk.
Level of difficulty: The new trails are considered intermediate to advanced.
Directions: From Interstate 90 east of Issaquah, take Exit 25 to southbound Highway 18 and go about 4 miles. Look for signs to Tiger Mountain State Forest.
More information: Check dnr.wa.gov and search under "Tiger Mountain," where you'll find a detailed color map of the new trails.

Tonight: Two Colorado Mysteries Converge at Tattered Cover
Two local authors will be celebrating their just-published novels at the LoDo Tattered Cover tonight -- one in the flesh, one in spirit. And since the authors have an intertwined history and the novels involve the latest exploits of series characters, it's important to keep things straight.
Gary Reilly.
Former Denver Post reporter Mark Stevens will be on hand to introduce Trapline, the third in his series of mysteries featuring intrepid hunting guide Allison Coil. But the gathering will also certainly include some reminiscences about Stevens's buddy Gary Reilly, an incredibly prolific novelist who never made much of an effort to publish any of his work before his death from cancer in 2011, at the age of 61.

I love and enjoy working with all aspects of the English language. Working with individual students provides me with the opportunity to examine the unique writing styles of each and address the variety of difficulties an English student may face. Regarding my experience, I taught English Mechanics and Composition at a Christian high school during the 2010-11 school year. Last year I enrolled as a full-time graduate student in Rice University's Masters in Teaching Program. (My curriculum focused upon Language Arts, grades 8-12.) In addition, I have always had a talent for standardized tests, scoring an 800 on both the verbal and writing portions of the SAT. I am an approachable and patient person, and I believe I am adept at finding the most appropriate teaching method for each student I meet. In Summer 2014 I earned my English AP certification.
I have tutored several high schoolers in essay writing, sentence improvement, essay comprehension and vocabulary skills required for standardized tests. I have a knack for doing well on my own standardized tests. On my SAT, I scored an 800 on the verbal portion and an 800 on what was then called the "Writing SAT II." More recently, I scored in the top 92% of the Graduate Records Exam, a test required for entry into graduate school.
I currently tutor several high school students in essay writing, sentence improvement, essay comprehension and vocabulary. Such skills are vital for success on standardized tests. On my SAT, I scored an 800 on both the verbal and writing portions of the test.
I taught high school English Mechanics and Composition during the 2010-2011 school year. Last year I attended Rice University's Master's in Teaching program, in which I focused on English for grades 8-12.
I taught high school English Mechanics and Composition during the 2010-2011 school year. The class centered on improving writing skills; consequently, I covered plenty of grammar topics in depth. Last year I attended Rice University's Masters in Teaching program, in which I focused on English for grades 8-12.
Literature is my first love. I have written innumerable papers analyzing literary themes, the writing styles of varied authors, the context in which the work was written as well as many other aspects vital to the study of literature. I wrote such papers for undergraduate as well graduate literature courses, including my year-long thesis required by the honors program from which I graduated.
I graded many a student paper as a grammar and composition teacher, enabling me to quickly spot errors and suggest solutions. When writing my own papers, I enjoy editing and improving sentences more than any other aspect of the composition process. Additionally, I worked as a proofreader and copy-editor for a Houston publishing firm after graduating from college.
I currently tutor several high school students in essay writing, sentence improvement, essay comprehension and vocabulary. Such skills are vital for success on the SAT. On my own SAT, I scored an 800 on both the verbal and writing portions of the test.
I received perfect 800s on the verbal as well as writing portions of my SAT. I enjoy helping students improve in the variety of English skills necessary to perform well on the SAT.
I received an 800 on the verbal/vocabulary portion of my SAT. I have taught high school English classes in which we discussed a new vocabulary word each day. I still love expanding my own vocabulary when I come across obscure words. I am talented in helping students use their vocabulary words the most appropriate context.
I received an 800 on the writing portion of my SAT. I have written hundreds of papers in my undergraduate and graduate career. In addition, I taught high school English Grammar and Composition.

MCLEAN, Virginia, November 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Increased New Booking Sales as well as Accelerated Execution on Next Generation Mobile and SaaS Security Solutions Highlight Strategic Advances
New Bookings More than Double Year-to-Date versus the Prior Year, Providing an Enhanced Foundation for Growth in 2013
Closing of FRISK Acquisition and Increased Investment Strengthens Antivirus Capabilities
Commtouch® (NASDAQ: CTCH), a leading provider of Internet security technology and cloud-based services, today announced its third quarter financial results for the period ending September 30, 2012.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120501/529254 )
Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results:
- Revenues totaled $5.6 million compared to $5.7 million for the sequential second quarter of 2012 and $5.9 million in the third quarter of 2011. The decline in revenue was primarily related to the low level of new bookings in the previous fiscal year and a modest decline in the level of activity among select customers who experienced a slowdown in their own underlying businesses.
- Net income in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) was $19,000, compared to net income of $804,000 for the sequential second quarter of 2012 and $887,000 in the third quarter of 2011. The decline in net income was primarily attributable to the impact of acquisition related costs as well as the planned higher level of investment in sales, marketing and engineering expenses associated with the ongoing support of Commtouch's "Software-as-a-Service" strategy rollout and upcoming launch, among other factors.
- GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.00, compared to $0.03 for the sequential second quarter of 2012 and $0.04 in the third quarter of 2011.
- Non-GAAP net income was $744,000, compared to $1.3 million for the sequential second quarter of 2012 and $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2011.
- Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.03, compared to $0.05 for the sequential second quarter of 2012 and $0.07 in the third quarter of 2011.
- Commtouch announced the acquisition of FRISK Software International's Antivirus business, accelerating the company's launch of an expanded range of antivirus solutions for the OEM and service provider market. The acquisition closed on October 1, 2012 and will begin to be integrated into Commtouch's full quarterly results beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012.
- Cash used for operating cash activities during the quarter was $1.4 million which included $1.0 million as part of a pre-payment plan to secure a long-term technological supplier agreement which is projected to yield cost effective results in terms of reducing the company's cost of revenue and increasing gross margin.
- Cash as of September 30, 2012 was $17.3 million, compared to $19.8 million as of June 30, 2012. Cash usage during the quarter included the aforementioned $1.0 million pre-paid supplier agreement, $828,000 related to the company's share repurchase program activity during the quarter, as well as increased capital expenditures related to the execution of the company's new SaaS strategy and higher acquisition related expenses, among other factors.
Shlomi Yanai, Commtouch's chief executive officer, stated, "Commtouch made significant progress during the third quarter of 2012 in terms of both execution and advancing our corporate strategy as we anticipate returning to sequential revenue growth beginning in the current fourth quarter of 2012. In terms of execution, our focused sales and marketing efforts generated major success including a significant $2.2 million contract win in Latin America, a geography we've specifically targeted for growth this year. We've also seen increased sales traction across international and U.S. based customers. In fact, over the last two quarters we have successfully secured more new business wins than the preceding 12 months combined and our new bookings have more than doubled year-to-date. This provides, yet another proof point that our improved execution is yielding immediate results."
"This multiple-year backlog includes committed revenue and major upside for the company. Based on the positive impact of these contract wins and the nature of our long-term customer agreements, these multi-year contract wins are on track to begin more significantly contributing to our revenue growth and profitability in the coming quarters. While our third quarter financial results are not yet reflecting the positive impact of the sharp rise in new bookings due to the nature of our subscription based revenue model and the way those contracts ramp, we are making excellent progress with regards to setting the stage growth and improved profitability in 2013."
"In addition to enhanced execution and posting a sharp increase in new bookings activity compared to the year ago, Commtouch made significant progress towards our strategic evolution into a cloud-driven 'security as a service' solutions provider. We remain on track with the planned rollout of Commtouch's new Mobile Security SDK product for Android devices in the current quarter as well as our next generation cloud-based 'security as a service' offerings for web and email which are targeted for release in the first half of 2013. Our progress to date in the development of these new growth engines, and our continued success in significantly increasing Commtouch's new business bookings, are combining to provide us increased confidence in our strategy and a solid foundation for future growth," concluded Mr. Yanai.
Today the company also announced that Mr. Ron Ela has indicated his intention to transition out of his current role as Chief Financial Officer by December 31, 2012. The company has initiated a comprehensive executive search process and intends to appoint the new incoming Chief Financial Officer by year end.
Announced in May of 2012, Commtouch's Board of Directors authorized the initiation of a stock repurchase program of the company's ordinary shares in the open market, in an amount in cash of up to $2.5 million. During the third quarter Commtouch repurchased 297,000 shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $828,000. As of September 30, 2012, approximately 495,000 shares have been repurchased through the program at an aggregate cost of approximately $1.4 million.
For information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information" and "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Information."
Third Quarter 2012 Business Highlights:
- Commtouch announced the acquisition of FRISK Software International's Antivirus business, helping accelerate the company's strategy to deploy an expanded range of antivirus solutions for the OEM and service provider market, including private label solutions.
- Commtouch's enhanced global sales and marketing team continued to deliver sharply higher new booking activity during the third quarter. Overall, new booking activity over the last six months has already exceeded total new booking activity in the preceding twelve month period. Under Commtouch's long-term agreement model, the majority of contracts signed average approximately three years in length. These new multi-year contracts are expected to begin coming online and positively impacting Commtouch's revenue growth as they ramp in the coming quarters.
- Key new client wins during the quarter reflected our enhanced international sales and marketing penetration, including:
- Highlighting penetration into Latin America, a new managed service provider customer headquartered in Brazil awarded Commtouch a three year contract valued at $2.2 million for Internet security solutions supporting their customers throughout Brazil and Latin America.
- AVG Technologies, a leading vendor of security software, and Commtouch announced a strategic long-term partnership during the quarter. AVG has deployed Commtouch's GlobalView Web URL technology into AVG Family Safety and AVG CloudCare™ underscoring Commtouch's uniquely innovative approach to protection.
- One of the world's leading Internet search engine and web portal companies selected Commtouch to provide targeted URL filtering data services.
- Commtouch was selected by a French provider information security offerings and Unified Threat Management solutions to provide its GlobalView URL Classification Technology in a three year contract.
- In Germany, a provider of custom solutions for optimized security and workflow added Commtouch's Command antivirus solution to their suite of Commtouch solutions.
- Customer renewal activity during the quarter was strong with more than 95% of eligible customers renewing.
Business Outlook
Based on the company's nine month year-to-date results and the projected influence of the acquisition of FRISK Software International's Antivirus business which was announced late in the third quarter and closed on October 1, 2012, as well as current expectations for the remainder of 2012, the company is updating its current outlook for 2012. The company now anticipates full year 2012 revenue will be approximately $23.0 million, in line with the prior full year 2011. Commtouch expects to return to sequential revenue growth beginning in the current fourth quarter of 2012. Full year 2012 non-GAAP net income is expected to be greater than $4.0 million as the company accounts for the initial ramp of the FRISK business as well as higher costs associated with the company's investment and integration around FRISK within Commtouch, among other factors.
The above outlook is as of the date of this release, and the company undertakes no obligation to update its estimates in the future.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures consist of GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude: share based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets, deferred taxes, acquisition related costs and adjustments to earnout obligation related to the Command antivirus acquisition. The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of the company's performance exclusive of non-cash charges and other items that are considered by management to be outside of the company's core operating results. The company's non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Company management regularly uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions.
These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. The company believes this adjustment is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide consistent and comparable measures to help investors understand the company's current and future operating cash flow performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Income. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when evaluating the business internally and therefore felt it important to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors.
Financial Results Conference Call
The company has scheduled a conference call later today, November 6, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. ET to review the third quarter 2012 operational and financial highlights, as well as walk through a strategic overview of the evolution of the company's growth strategy.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

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 ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

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...
