Walmart testing online price matching to win over consumers
Retailer Walmart wants to win over consumers looking to open up their wallets this holiday shopping season, and is now considering matching online prices for in-store purchases. Walmart has started a trial run to match online prices in the following markets: Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Phoenix and northwest Arkansas.
Walmart, the world's largest retailer, has matched rival in-store prices in the past - but with consumer spending to be the best it has been in the past few years - wants to better compete against Amazon and other e-tailers. Although this effort could end up hurting revenue, with many consumers shopping in its stores purchasing multiple items, Walmart hopes to provide consumers with incentives so they head to the store and spend even more.
Consumers that have been hesitant to spend large amounts of money during the holiday shopping season should find great deals - both online and in-store - as the economy continues to recover from years of consistent struggles.
Flight experts previously warned Virgin Galactic of volatile fuel mix
A Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo test flight suffered a 'serious anomaly' that led to one pilot being killed, and Virgin Galactic was reportedly warned on numerous occasions that this type of problem was possible. The company's "unconventional" fuel propulsion system to help the aircraft reach space broke apart while flying about 45,000-ft. above the Earth's surface - and a full investigation is currently under way.
The use of the hybrid propulsion system doesn't rely on carbon-based fuels and instead uses a mix of nitrous oxide and plastic fuel, with rocket engineers and safety experts weary of potential explosions. In fact, the Virgin Galactic website reportedly noted nitrous oxide was "benign" and "stable," despite the gas playing a major role in a spaceport explosion that killed three people in 2007.
"It's still very poorly understood in large quantities... the temperature of the fuel is critical," said Geoff Daly, a British rocket scientist, who warned the FAA last year. The delivery system is solid, the motor is bolted to the fuel tanks. There is no flexibility in the tank and motor, any vibration can result in the fracture and failure of the engine system."
Consumers will determine the winner in mobile payments battle
Apple and other mobile payment providers are preparing for a long-term battle in the mobile payments sector, but it will ultimately be up to consumers to determine a winner. As additional retailers begin to embrace NFC-enabled mobile payments, their competitors will watch closely - and likely follow suit - offering the same type of payment services.
Mobile payments aren't new, but it appears Apple Pay and the Merchant Customer Exchange (MCX) CurrentC appear to be the two most serious competitors at the moment. As Apple Pay is available to a large number of US consumers, CurrentC - supported by Walmart, CVS, Rite Aid, and a collective group of more than 50 major retailers - will have to take a more creative marketing approach to win over consumers.
"This skirmish will go on for a while, but ultimately it seems shortsighted to tell customers that you can't use their competitor's alternative," said Creditcards.com analyst Matt Schulz. "The baseline really is the credit card. The process of using one is still very easy, so everything compares to that."
Experts believe a major cyberattack likely by 2025, as fears increase
A major cyberattack that will cause "widespread harm to a nation's security and capacity to defend itself and its people" is likely by 2025, according to cybersecurity experts surveyed by the Pew Research Center.
Cybercriminals are becoming increasingly organized - and state-sponsored by foreign governments - interested in attacking "inviting targets," such as national defense, banking, finance and energy. Sophisticated threats could be leading towards a cyberwar, with many major data breaches linked to the Chinese and Russian governments - while other targets blame the U.S. government for attacks.
"The Internet was not built for security, yet we have made it the backbone of virtually all private-sector and government operations, as well as communications, said Joel Brenner, former National Security Agency counsel. "Pervasive connectivity has brought dramatic gains in productivity and pleasure but has created equally dramatic vulnerabilities. Huge heists of personal information are common, and cybertheft of intellectual property and infrastructure penetrations continue at a frightening pace."
First Fast & Furious 7 movie trailer now available
The first official movie trailer for Fast & Furious 7 was released, marking the first film since Paul Walker's tragic death. The last two installments in the series, Fast Five and Fast & Furious 6, have generated $1.4 billion at the box office, and with Walker's death in a car wreck, the seventh movie should prove to be financially lucrative.
"I think the beautiful thing is that they get to see Paul again... and in a way celebrate him," said actress Jordana Brewster, when asked about Walker's presence in the film. "I've heard he's really, really good in it, so I look forward to seeing him too. Obviously it will be bittersweet, but I think it's a way for fans to revisit him."

Windows 8, 8.1 finally surpass 15% operating system market share
Microsoft Windows 8.1 is finally beginning to pick up market share, increasing from 6.7 percent in September up to 10.9 percent market, according to Net Applications. The company has continued to try to convince users to leave behind older versions of Windows and upgrade to 8/8.1, but has struggled to entice users.
Due to the failure of Windows 8/8.1, Microsoft is fast tracking Windows 10 to be released in 2015 - listening to user feedback - as consumers were unhappy with 8/8.1. Windows 7 currently has 53.05 percent market share, as Vista continued its slide, down to 2.82 percent - and the unsupported Windows XP has dropped 6.69 percent down to 17.18 percent.
It seems many consumers are interested in waiting to see how Windows 10 operates before upgrading - and could be waiting to purchase new PCs and laptops.
Star Citizen FPS mode detailed at PAX Australia 2014
PAX AU 2014 - Last night, Roberts Space Industries took the stage of the Forum Theatre in Melbourne to show off the FPS mode of Star Citizen. We found out that developer Illfonic has been tirelessly working on the first-person module of the game for quite a while now. We were at the event itself, watching the entire thing in awe. Check out the footage below.
What the video doesn't show you, is the little details that RSI and Illfonic have put into the game. Because you're in space, and on various spaceships, in the game you're wearing a suit. When you breathe, your breathe is hitting the visor and creating a fog. As you run, you will breathe faster, and more often, which results in the visor getting foggier and foggier - immersing you into the world of Star Citizen. From there, Chris Roberts explained that they've created "correctly simulated eyes, head & body", which allows a much more realistic portrayal of the game world to be achieved.
From there, it allows the first- and third-person animations to be unified. The team explained this by showing off switching between first- and third-person modes, which was seamless, as the eyes were being rendered in the same place. So instead of the eyes being a camera or window into the game world, and then the third-person view being a wider, but more far away look into the world, it's completely unified. It provides a much more realistic sense of being there, as your eyes and where they're fixated, becoming your focal point.

PlayStation 4 rest mode crashes continue, frustrating gamers
Sony confirmed there are worsening problems with the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Network, following the "Masamune 2.0" system update, according to reports. Formerly known as Standby Mode, the new "Rest Mode" is plagued by a bug that doesn't allow the console to power back on - and the PlayStation community forums have been flooded by angry gamers.
In addition to the Rest Mode problem, others have complained that YouTube functionality has struggled, with video uploads no longer working properly. Sony is reportedly working to address these problems, but didn't offer a time table for the fix.
"We are aware of issues reported by some PS4 users following the release of PS4's latest system software update, v2.00," Sony recently told GameSpot. "We are investigating these issues and will provide an update as soon as we have more information."
Retailer Meijer moving forward with CurrentC and Apple Pay payments
Grocery chain Meijer plans to accept both Apple Pay and CurrentC mobile payments, serving as the only major CurrentC partner refusing to shun Apple Pay. The store has 200 locations across five states in the Midwest, and while it isn't the most influential Merchant Customer Exchange (MCX) member, it's a clear sign that retailers want to give customers the chance to have more options while paying.
"We have had the technology in our stores to accept mobile wallets for several years now," said Frank Guglielmi, Meijer spokesman, in a recent statement to the media. "If a customer has Apple Pay capability, our hardware works with it. We don't plan to remove or disable these systems."
It's unknown if MCX will try to punish a member if they refuse to shun Apple Pay - but could be a sign of future efforts by retailers looking to appeal to as many customers as possible - though new partners that sign up for CurrentC could be fined because they are legally forbidden from accepting other rival systems.
Trent Reznor currently working at Apple, helping with secret project
Nine Inch Nails singer Trent Reznor is working on a special project for Apple, as he was reportedly the chief creative officer with Beats Music. It's unknown if Reznor is currently working on hardware or software technology, but said he's "designing some products" for Apple - and with Apple's reputation of being secretive - it's unknown if consumers will know what exactly he is currently up to.
Here is what Reznor recently said: "It's related to that. Beats was bought by Apple, and they expressed direct interest in me designing some products with them. I can't go into details, but I feel like I'm in a unique position where I could be of benefit to them. That does mean some compromises in terms of how much brain power goes toward music and creating. This is very creative work that's not directly making music, but it's around music."
It seems most likely that Reznor is contributing to a project related to music delivery technology, but his work will probably debut with iTunes sometime in 2015.

You want a dependable vehicle that performs no matter where the road takes you and the reliability that only advanced high-strength steel can provide.
Steel gives automakers exactly what they need because it is strong, formable, lightweight and affordable.
That is exactly why you want your truck to be made with advanced high-strength steel.
AHSS offers automakers the ability to meet future regulations and return the highest value to their shareholders.
Over the past decade, advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) have become the fastest growing material for vehicle use. AHSS are stronger, lighter, and have low emissions, helping automakers decrease a vehicle's life-long carbon footprint. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach takes a vehicle's entire environmental impact into account by looking at greenhouse gas emissions from each phase of its life. LCA shows that steel, which currently makes up about 60 percent of the average North American vehicle, generates fewer emissions than other automotive body materials. Over a vehicle's lifecycle, steel is the highest value and most environmentally effective choice for automakers.
11/24/2014 - Light-duty truck and SUV material studies show steel lighter on the environment than aluminum over total vehicle life.

How managers can salvage training during tight budgets
One of the first victims of the budget axe is often professional training, says Linda Petersen, a former longtime Office of Personnel Management official now with Graduate School USA. Petersen, who joined In Depth with Francis Rose said too often training, which carries long-term benefits is not viewed as being part of an agency's strategic vision.

This is going to be a little biased as this is one of my own creations. But I thought it would only be fair to point out the strong points of this effect.
1. It can be done completely impormptu, on a moment's notice, you can even perform it with a friend's borrowed deck.
2. It gives your spectators the impression that you really do possess psychic powers.
3. There is no sleight of hand involved, one simple 'move' which you will learn in the instruction video is all you need to pull this amazing feat off. This allows you to put all your concentration on presentation, and that is what effective Magic ia all about.
4. Jeff lowered the price on this bad boy, you are getting a great deal. I have had Magicians offer me much more that $8 to teach them this.
5. Within an hour of watching the instructional video, you will be blowing your spectators away.
6. This is one of the very very very few effects I feel comfortable reapeating right away for the same spectator or for other spectators in the same room.
7. I have only ever had this fail once (first 'live' performance) and have NEVER been busted on the method.
Don't let the simplicity of the handling and secret detract you from learning and performing this effect. It has always had nothing less than great reactions from my audiences.
Don't hesitate, get this one today.

Purchased at iHerb
I look forward to running a bath and pouring some of this powder in. I love that it makes beautiful bubbles and it's soft on the skin. But the best part is the scent! So relaxing, so peaceful, so calming. Soft, natural and gentle. And you only need a small amount, so the jar goes a long way.

Last name origin & meaning:
English: from a Norman personal name that appears in Middle English
as Geffrey and in Old French as Je(u)froi. Some
authorities regard this as no more than a palatalized form of
Godfrey, but early forms such as Galfridus and
Gaufridus point to a first element from Germanic gala
'to sing' or gawi 'region', 'territory'. It is possible that
several originally distinct names have fallen together in the same

Bürgi–Dunitz angle
The Bürgi–Dunitz angle (BD angle) is one of two angles that fully define the geometry of "attack" (approach via collision) of a nucleophile on a trigonal unsaturated center in a molecule, originally the carbonyl center in an organic ketone, but now extending to aldehyde, ester, and amide carbonyls, and to alkenes (olefins) as well.[1][2][3] Precisely, in the case of nucleophilic attack at a carbonyl, it is defined as the Nu-C-O bond angle, where Nu is the atom of the nucleophile forming the bond with the carbon. The angle was named after crystallographers Hans-Beat Bürgi and Jack D. Dunitz, its first senior investigators. The second angle defining the geometry describes the "offset" of the nucleophile's approach toward one of the two substituents attached to the carbonyl carbon or other electrophilic center, and was named the Flippin–Lodge angle angle by Clayton H. Heathcock after his contributing collaborators Lee A. Flippin and Eric P. Lodge.[4] These angles are generally best construed to mean the angle observed/measured for a given system, and not the historically observed value range for the original Bürgi–Dunitz aminoketones, or an idealized value computed for a particular system (such as hydride addition to formaldehyde, image at left). I.e., the BD and FL angles of the hydride-formadehyde system have one pair of values, while the angles observed for other systems are expected to vary.[1][3][5]
The BD angle adopted during an approach by a nucleophile to a trigonal unsaturated electrophile depends primarily on the molecular orbital (MO) shapes and occupancies of the unsaturated center (e.g., carbonyl center), and only secondarily on the molecular orbitals of the nucleophile.[1] Original measurements for a series of intramolecular amine-carbonyl ketone interactions observed in crystals of compounds bearing both functionalities—e.g., methadone and protopine, images at right—gave a narrow range of BD angle values (105 ± 5°).[2] Corresponding computational estimates (SCF-LCAO-MO calculations) on the approach of the s-orbital of the hydride anion (H–) to the pi-system of the simplest aldehyde, formaldehyde (H2C=O), gave a BD angle value of 107°.[6] Both the crystallographic measurement for aminoketones and the computational estimated for this simplest system are quite close to the theoretical ideal of a tetrahedral angle (internal angles of a tetrahedron, 109.5°), consistent with the importance of this geometry in developing transition states in nucleophilic attacks at trigonal centers.
The convergence of observed BD angles can be viewed as arising from the need to maximize overlap between the highest occupied MO (HOMO) of the nucleophile, and the lowest unoccupied MO (LUMO) of the unsaturated, trigonal center of the electrophile.[1] (See, in comparison, the related inorganic chemistry concept of the angular overlap model.[7][8][9]) In the case of addition to a carbonyl, the HOMO is often a p-type orbital as shown in the figure (e.g., on an amine nitrogen or halide anion), and the LUMO is generally understood to be the antibonding π* MO perpendicular to the plane containing the ketone C=O bond and its substituents (see figure at left above). The BD angle observed for nucleophilic attack is believed to approach the angle that would produce optimal overlap between HOMO and LUMO (based on the principle of the lowering of resulting new MO energies after such mixing of orbitals of similar energy and symmetry from the participating reactants). At the same time, the nucleophile avoids overlap with other orbitals of the electrophilic group that are unfavorable for bond formation (not apparent at left, because of the simplicity of the R=R'=H in formaldehyde).
To understand cases of real chemical reactions, this HOMO-LUMO centered view has to be modified by an understanding of further complex, electrophile-specific repulsive and attractive electrostatic and van der Waals interactions that alter the BD angle, and bias the Flippin-Lodge angle toward one substituent or the other.[10] In addition, any dynamics at play in the system (e.g., easily change torsional angles) have to be taken into account in real cases. (Recall that BD angle theory was developed based on "frozen" interactions in crystals, while most chemistry takes place via collisions of molecules tumbling in solution.) Moreover, it appears likely that in constrained environments (e.g., in enzyme and nanomaterial binding sites) the BD angles for reactivity will be quite distinct, since normal orbital overlap principles assuming reactivity dependent on random collision are not applicable in simple fashion.[11] For instance, the BD value determined for enzymatic cleavage of an amide by the serine protease subtilisin was 88° (quite distinct from the hydride-formaldehyde value of 107°), and a careful compilation of literature crystallographic BD angle values clustered at 89 ± 7° for the same reaction mediated by different catalysts (i.e., only slightly offset from directly above or below the carbonyl carbon). At the same time, the subtilisin FL value was 8°, see the Flippin-Lodge angle article, and FL angle values from the careful compilation clustered at 4 ± 6° (i.e., only slightly offset from directly behind the carbonyl).[12]
Finally, it is noteworthy that the Bürgi-Dunitz and Flippin-Lodge angles were central, practically, to the development of understanding of asymmetric induction during nucleophilic attack at hindered carbonyl centers (see the Cram–Felkin–Anh and Nguyen model).[4][13] As well, the stereoelectronic principles that underlie nucleophiles adopting a proscribed range of Bürgi–Dunitz angles appears to contribute to the conformational stability of proteins[14][15] and are invoked to explain the stability of particular conformations of molecules in one hypothesis of a chemical origin of life.[16]

BREAKINGVIEWS - Demise of Osama bin Laden brings risks as well as relief
-- The authors are Reuters Breakingviews columnists. The opinions expressed are their own --
By Ian Campbell and Una Galani
LONODN/DUBAI (Reuters Breakingviews) - Osama bin Laden's death is an important landmark which leaves hope for the Arab spring intact. The initial, obvious, response is to expect celebratory gains and for global equities and commodity prices to advance. But while the medium-term outlook is undoubtedly improved -- for the United States and the rest of the world -- bin Laden's death may heighten investors' sense of risk in the near term, bolstering the dollar and curbing flows into speculative assets.
In recent weeks and months markets have been partying on something bin Laden himself might have welcomed: a plunging dollar. Traders have been shorting the greenback and going long a host of other assets, not least in emerging economies. Last week Ben Bernanke, the Federal Reserve chairman, fuelled this tendency by suggesting the Fed was in no hurry to raise its policy interest rate. U.S. dollar weakness has been a big factor in record prices for silver and gold and the highs for currencies such as the Australian and Singapore dollars. The euro is at $1.48, despite the great difficulties of the euro zone periphery.
Bin Laden's death doesn't change the broad market picture materially -- U.S. interest rates will remain very low -- but it may, at least temporarily, alter the market mood. It could make markets wary of reprisal attacks and of heightened risks in North Africa and the Islamic world. It is easy to overstate the al Qaeda influence on world finance, however. The risks posed have not helped world growth but the bursting of the dot-com bubble and the credit crunch, balanced by the emergence of new economic powers such as China, have been of greater importance.
There is little direct danger posed to the Arab spring. The ambitions of this movement are socially and economically progressive: vastly different from al Qaeda's aims. Bin Laden's diminishing influence since 2001 may also be observed in the Middle East and North Africa where tyrants are being toppled without recourse to the violent tactics, intolerance and religious extremism he represented. Though the democratisation process will be slow, and will doubtless suffer some setbacks, the Arab spring is a catalyst that brings real hope for broad-based prosperity over the longer term.
Bin Laden's death is an advance that may eventually help the U.S. economy and its currency by providing scope to reduce defence spending and the budget deficit. But near-term market moves will depend on whether or not risks associated with his death bolster the dollar, and curb the dollar carry trade that has been favouring speculative excesses. The silver price, which had become ridiculously extended, the most egregious example at present of speculative excess in the global economy, plunged overnight. It would not take much for silver, equities and commodities to turn tail and retreat more.
Bin Laden's death is a victory that comes with uncertain consequences in the short term. For all that, though, it is still a victory, and an important one for the world and the United States.
-- Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed on May 1 in a firefight with U.S. security forces in Pakistan, President Barack Obama has said.
-- "Justice has been done," Obama said in a late-night White House speech announcing the death of the elusive mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington that killed nearly 3,000 people.
-- Obama said U.S. forces led a targeted operation that killed bin Laden in Abbottabad north of Islamabad. His body was recovered, he said.
-- The U.S. State Department on Sunday warned Americans worldwide of "enhanced potential for anti-American violence."
-- In Asian trading on May 2 the price of silver fell by 10 percent following news of bin Laden's death, to $43.04 an ounce, its lowest in nearly two weeks, before recovering to $44.92. The U.S. dollar index traded at 73.15, up 0.3 percent on the day in Asian trading recovering from falls last week that took it to its lowest level since mid-2008.

It's been over a month since my last post! I fell off the blogging train (everything is going great… just busy with work and life!) but have still been taking photos when I have a chance. Here are some of my favorites since my last post:
~ colorful crinkled paper scraps

The end of summer is approaching, so I'm trying to make the most of my white denim jeans while I can. White denim is such an easy way to spruce up a basic t-shirt and jeans outfit… although I have to admit that whenever I wear white denim I think of this hilarious skit. :P
Hope you are having a great week! I'm looking forward to a long weekend getaway… our girls start first grade next week, so it will be our last summer hurrah. :) Do you have any plans for the upcoming Labor Day weekend?
