Most of the cars blazing on the circuit were were none other than Maruti Swift. Earlier, Maruti,introduced a limited edition of Swift at the 'Windsong' Music Festival Lonavala, Maharashtra on Nov 14, 2014. The automaker recently launched the facelift version of Swift at Rs 4.42 Lac while the diesel model starts at Rs 5.56 Lac. The dealers have already started taking bookings for the Swift facelift across the country. The updated Swift embraces push start button, reverse parking assistant, new front profile, premium interiors and higher fuel efficiency by 10 per cent. It also gets 3 exciting new colors as Mysterious Violet, Fire Red and Granite Gray. The engine specification remains same but the fuel efficiency is enhanced by 10 per cent in diesel model and 9.67 per cent in petrol models.
Maruti Suzuki India Limited has again made it to the headlines by introducing the updated version of its bestselling hatchback, Swift in the automobile market. The upgrades are mostly regarding technical specifications and its features, which helps it to be more competitive in this lucrative hatchback segment. The automaker has retained all the variants in this model series, while adding a new 'LXi Option' trim in the lineup. Hence, this hatchback is now available in a total of four petrol and three diesel variants for the buyers to choose from. The automaker has also retained the same petrol and diesel engines, but has made some tweaks to improve its overall fuel efficiency. All the petrol variants are equipped with the same 1.2-litre engine, which is now capable of giving away 20.4 Kmpl mileage. On the other hand, its diesel trims are fitted with a 1.3-litre Multijet engine that can produce an impressive mileage of 25.2 Kmpl. In terms of exteriors, it gets a redesigned bumper with pronounced air dam along with silver inserts on fog lamp console. Apart from this, it also gets a new honeycomb radiator grille along with a newly designed alloy wheels. In addition to these, this model series is now available with three new exterior paint options including Mysterious Violet, Granite Grey and Fire Red as well. Its interiors too have been tweaked with an improved color scheme, which is further emphasized by sporty silver accents. In addition to these, the seats have also been tweaked with improved support for back and thighs. As far as its comfort features are concerned, the entry level variants are now available with split folding rear bench seat that is also incorporated with a couple of adjustable headrests. While the mid range trims are now equipped with a music system along with electrically adjustable outside mirrors. On the other hand, its top end version is equipped with advanced features like Bluetooth connectivity, rear parking sensors and push button engine start as well, which certainly makes it more desirable in its segment. On the other hand, in terms of safety aspects, its mid range trim has been blessed with the proficient anti lock braking system along with EBD as a standard fitment. This refurbished version is placed against the likes of Toyota Etios Liva, Volkswagen Polo, Fiat Punto Evo and Ford Figo in the Indian automobile market. It is being offered with a standard warranty period of 24 months or 40,000 kilometers, which can be further extended at an additional cost.
This refurbished Maruti Swift series has received minor cosmetic updates in terms of its exteriors. The automaker has redesigned the radiator grille with a honeycomb mesh and embedded it with Suzuki's logo. Its headlight cluster has been retained from outgoing model and is equipped with powerful halogen lamps and turn indicators. The front bumper gets a new design and a pronounced air dam, which gives it a sporty look. Furthermore, its fog lamp consoles have been decorated with silver stripes that further accentuates the front facade. The side profile too gets a fresh new look owing to the stylish alloy wheels, which are embedded with company's badge. However, its base and mid range variants are being offered with a set of steel rims featuring full wheel caps. Its window frames along with A and B pillars are garnished in black, while the door handles and ORVM caps are painted in body color. Furthermore, its wing mirrors are integrated with side turn blinkers, which provides additional safety. The rear profile remains mostly identical to the outgoing model with a concave tailgate and clear lens taillight cluster. Its rear bumper is now equipped with parking sensors, which is the only change that we can notice. It also has styling features like a rear spoiler with integrated third brake lights and an antenna. However, most of these features are available for the top end variants only.
Exterior Measurements:
This premium hatchback comes with a total length of 3850mm along with an overall width of 1695mm, which also includes the protruding external wing mirrors. Then its overall height reaches about 1530mm, whereas its minimum ground clearance is a good 170mm, which allows it to tackle any terrain with ease. Its wheelbase is at an comfortable 2430mm, while it also has a compact turning radius of close to 4.8 meters, which makes it easier to maneuver in heavy traffic as well.
Editor's take : The Swift had boosted the sales of Maruti Suzuki since its launch and the new-generation is simply a great step ahead of the outgoing version. The interiors of the new Swift aren't just better in quality and feel, but Maruti Suzuki has also introduced various new bells and whistles in it. The black styling is also good and the second row is spacious, however the boot of the Swift isn't that large.
This newly launched Maruti Swift hatchback series gets a minor update in terms of its interiors with refined wraparounds and extensive metallic inserts. Its color scheme have also been improved, which gives it a plush appeal. In addition to this, its seats have been slightly modified with better thigh and back support. Now, the base variants are also available with 60:40 split folding rear bench seat including adjustable headrest, which provides enhanced convenience. On the other hand, its top end version is now blessed with a multifunctional steering wheel, which adds to the driver's comfort. The dashboard has been retained from its outgoing model, but it is now decorated with a lot of silver accents, which gives a magnificent look to the cabin. It has several important features inside the cabin like drink holders, accessory power socket, dual front sun visors and a lot of storage spaces as well.
Interior Comfort:
The manufacturer has bestowed it with some innovative aspects that offers a very pleasant and comfortable ride. There are well cushioned seats incorporated, which provides good comfort and support as well. The 60:40 split folding facility for the rear seat allows to bring more luggage inside. It has electrically adjustable outside rear view mirrors with turn indicators that offers the comfort of changing view without opening the windows. There are all four power operated windows available in the high end trims, while the LXI Option trim has front power windows. It has a tilt adjustable steering wheel with audio and Bluetooth controls mounted on it. Besides these, it includes a few storage spaces like cup holders, front seat back pockets, door trim pockets, rear parcel shelf, ticket holders, console box and a few others. The rear adjustable head restraints and driver seat height adjustment facility further adds to the convenience. The top end trims are blessed with automatic climate control that assists to maintain the temperature inside. While there is a manual air conditioning system installed in other variants. The center console is fitted with a music system in mid and high end variants that offers best in-car entertainment. This list further includes lane change indicator, electro magnetic back door opener, remote fuel lid opener, remote locking with push start button, reading light and a few other such features, which further enhances its comfort quotient.
Interior Measurements:
This facelifted Maruti Swift is a premium hatchback with a comfortable seating capacity of five people. It is also very roomy with elegant interiors that offers a front head room of 1000mm, rear head space of 910mm, shoulder room of 1290mm along with a maximum rear knee space of 855mm and a minimum of 625mm (min).

Editor's take : The acceleration of the new Swift is improved and it is better than before. Even though the old car had good acceleration, and this is with the enhanced drivability of the diesel.
The car maker has paired both the petrol and diesel engines with a five speed manual transmission gearbox. Its petrol variants have the ability to zoom towards the 100 Kmph speed mark from a standstill in about 14 seconds. At the same time, it can achieve a top speed in the range of 150 to 155 Kmph. On the other hand, its diesel versions can reach a top speed of approximately 160 Kmph, while breaking the 100 Kmph speed barrier in about 15 to 16 seconds.
Editor's take : The performance of the 1.2-litre petrol and 1.3-litre oil burner are good and the engine doesn't feel out of steam, even when taken on a highway. The engines have sufficient power in the city and even for the open road.
All the petrol variants are equipped with a slightly refined 1.2-litre K-series petrol engine that has a multipoint fuel injection system. It is based on a DOHC valve configuration with 4-cylinders and 16-valves that displaces 1197cc. This power plant can now produce a maximum power of 83.1bhp at 6000rpm, but can generate an improved torque output of 115Nm at just 4000rpm. On the other hand, its diesel variants are equipped with the same 1.3-litre Multijet diesel engine, whose engine control unit (ECU) has been modified. This 1248cc power plant is also based on the same DOHC valve configuration like its petrol counterpart with 4-cylinders and 16-valves. It also has a turbocharger, which allows it to produce a maximum power of 74bhp at 4000rpm along with a hammering torque output of 190Nm at just 2000rpm. Both these engines have been mated with a sophisticated five speed manual transmission gearbox, which sends the torque output to the front wheels.
Editor's take : The fuel efficiency of the Swift petrol and diesel has always been good, and the same trend is carried forward in the new generation as well, however the results in the real world aren't as good as the old diesel engine. A new base model has been introduced in the Swift diesel, called as XDi.
This model series is available with both petrol and diesel engine options for the buyers to choose from. Its petrol variants are equipped with a slightly tweaked K-series petrol engine that has a multi point fuel injection technology. This mill can now give away a maximum mileage of 20.4 Kmpl (as per ARAI certification). On the other hand, its diesel engine too gets an updated ECU (engine control unit). As a result of this, it can now produce a peak mileage of 25.2 Kmpl, which is rather good.
Editor's take : The power of the Swift has been good and now both the engines are tuned for better drivability. The turbo lag on the diesel has been reduced to a great extent.
Its petrol engine comprises of 4-cylinders based on a DOHC valve configuration. This power plant produces slightly less power of 83.1bhp, but the torque output has gone up to 115Nm. On the other hand, its 4-cylinder diesel engine has the ability to unleash a maximum power of 74bhp that yields a superior torque output of 190Nm as well.

Editor's take : The Swift comes loaded with integrated music system, steering mounted audio controls, electrically adjustable ORVMs. These features are also available on the diesel as it has ZDi variant too.
This hatchback series is packed with an integrated audio system that lets its passengers listen to their favorite tunes, while driving. It features a CD player, two integrated front tweeters, radio tuner and also has four large speakers as well at front and rear. This supports USB port, auxiliary input, Bluetooth connectivity and has a speed based automatic volume control. It has a stylish steering wheel that is mounted with illuminated audio and phone controls, which makes it quite convenient for the driver, while driving. Apart from these, it includes a sporty antenna that helps in better reception of radio signals.
Editor's take : With its rallying pedigree, the Swift has been a good handler. The Swift drives well on winding roads and is definitely a good pick as a driver's car. The Swift can give the European competition a run for their buck.
The facelifted hatchback possesses a very sound braking system that promises a safe drive at all times. The presence of ABS (Anti Lock Braking System) in its top end variants further helps in preventing wheel lockup during panic braking. Its front wheels have been fitted with ventilated discs, while the rear ones have drum brakes, which are quite efficient in case any unexpected surprises spring up on the road. This Maruti Swift hatchback series also features an improved handling system. Just like its predecessor, the suspension of this refurbished hatch is very efficient. The front axle is equipped with a McPherson strut that also has a coil spring, while the rear one has a torsion beam along with a similar coil spring as well. This frame type front suspension present in it offers better stability and driving comfort on any road condition.
Editor's take : The Swift gets all the safety features like two airbags and ABS. These are the standard features offered on most of the B+ segment hatchbacks.
The new Swift by all means is a very safe hatch with many advanced safety features available in it. There are both active and passive safety features available to safeguard against the surprises that come in the way. The presence of dual SRS front airbags is of great help during accidents and collision, which reduces the impact and provides a cushioning effect. The ABS (anti-lock braking system) is available in top end as well as VDI trims. This prevents wheel locking in case of sudden braking and also controls its stability as well. These also include brake assist feature, which further adds to the safety quotient. This hatch unlocks automatically in case of an accident and there is auto lock, when key is removed. The intelligent computerized anti-theft system helps to track it, which reduces the chances of unwelcome guests. The halogen headlamps offer a very clear visibility to the roads and reduce the danger henceforth. The availability of front and rear fog lamps in some variants act as a safeguard when driving in bad weather conditions. The front and rear ELR seat belts are other features that minimizes the risk of injury in the event of a collision. Furthermore, the ZXI and ZDI variants are available with rear parking sensors that assists the driver to park it easily. Other safety measures like child safety locks, high mounted stop lamp which is clearly visible, double horn, side impact beams and head restraints enhances the level of security.
The wheel arches of its base and mid range variants are equipped with a set of conventional 14-inch steel wheels, which are further covered with 165/80 R14 sized tubeless radial tyres. Whereas the high end trims are equipped with a stylish set of newly designed 15 inch alloy wheels that have tubeless radial tyres of size 185/65 R15. It is also offered with a full size spare wheel that is fitted in the luggage compartment along with all other tools, which are required for changing a flat tyre.
1. Added features surely gives it a shot in the arm.
2. Improved fuel efficiency is an added advantage.
3. Refined exteriors makes it look more captivating.
4. Overall engine performance is quite good.
5. Competitive pricing further adds brownie points to it.
1. There is still scope to further improvise its interiors.
2. Boot compartment space can be better.
3. Rear seat has limited leg room.
4. Diesel engine noise can be reduced.
5. Automatic trim not available in both versions.

Thomas Sowell: Where is black America 50 years after MLK's great speech?
At the core of Dr. King's speech was his dream of a world in which people would not be judged by the color of their skin, but by "the content of their character."
Yet many — if not most — of those who celebrate the "I have a dream" speech today promote the directly opposite approach of group preferences, especially those based on skin color.
What was historic about that speech was not only what was said, but how powerfully its message resonated among Americans of that time, across the spectrum of race, ideology and politics. A higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats voted in Congress for both the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
There has been much documented racial progress since 1963. But there has also been much retrogression, of which the disintegration of the black family has been central, especially among those at the bottom of the social pyramid.Many people — especially politicians and activists — want to take credit for the economic and other advancement of blacks, even though a larger proportion of blacks rose out of poverty in the 20 years before 1960 than in the 20 years afterward.But no one wants to take responsibility for the policies and ideologies that led to the breakup of the black family, which had survived centuries of slavery and generations of discrimination.
Race hustlers who blame all lags on the racism of others are among the obstacles to taking the fullest advantage of education and other opportunities. What does that say about the content of their character?
The nation has just been through a sensationalized murder trial in Florida, on which many people took fierce positions before a speck of evidence was introduced, basing themselves on nothing more than judging those involved by the color of their skin.
Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. His website is tsowell.com.

In the warehouse, the group who were texted watch the reel of Diane. Victor wonders who did this if it wasn't Malloy. They watch, transfixed, as the reel shows each of them fighting with Diane in the park that night, except for Victoria, who seemed to watch in horror from the bridge as her father attacked Diane. Nick shuts off the projector, saying it was on a timer. He thinks Malloy wants everyone to get nervous and run their mouths. They all profess their innocence. Phyllis points out that Diane was alive to deal with all of them. Jack suggests they not turn on each other, but that's exactly what happens. Accusations fly. Victor tells Jack he's taking Kyle away from him. Soon, some decide that Adam must be behind this. Others argue the point.

The Mojave Desert cross is not the only Establishment Clause icon to make a comeback this week. Roy Moore, the former Chief Judge of the Alabama Supreme Court, who famously defied a federal court order to remove a Ten Commandments monument from the state courthouse, has won election to his old job. In 2003, a state judicial ethics panel removed Moore from office for failing to comply with the federal court order. This week, the voters of Alabama sent Moore back to his former position. Moore told his supporters that he would continue "to stand for the acknowledgment of God," but has promised not to try to restore the monument.

O'Connor was widely regarded as a swing vote on many issues, and received praise from both parties for her tenure with the court.

Profile: Britannia: Fitted fora Queen
The Royal Yacht, on her last official outing, belongs to another age, says Andrew Marshall
This week that ship has its last big outing. Moored in Hong Kong harbour, she will be used to bear away the last remnants of the British Empire from the colony - or the Special Administrative Region, as it will be by then. Everything in the world around her has changed during four decades; everything but the rain, that is. As she steamed in on Monday, dwarfed by the vast glass and steel towers that line the hills around the harbour, she was swept by a light tropical drizzle.
It is the last time that she will bring a dash of Fifties glamour to a state event. She is, in the judgement of the Government, too expensive to refit, and she will be decommissioned later this year. For her last appearance on the world stage, she has been given a character role in the handover of Hong Kong, hosting the dinners and drink parties, and then whisking away the Prince of Wales and the former governor Chris Patten. It is a role for which she was custom-built: the last imperial transport. In her 44 years, she has sailed more than a million miles, ferrying the Queen and the Royal Family around the Commonwealth.
When the young Queen christened her yacht in April 1953, there was still a Chief of the Imperial General Staff; indeed, there was still an Empire, or at least its remnants. The main foundation had gone in 1947, when India was partitioned and made independent; but the rest remained, a vast assembly of territories and colonies spread across the world. The Royal Family was at perhaps the peak of its popularity, with much talk of the new Elizabethan era; Britain was emerging, blinking but optimistic, into the post-war, Cold War world.
Britannia was supposed to represent continuity. She replaced the Victoria and Albert, the ageing 50-year-old boat which the Queen's father, George VI, had used. But she was to be very different, larger and more modern than the V&A, more streamlined, with a modern clipper bow and modified cruiser stern rather than the traditional swan bow and counter stern of previous royal yachts.
The Royal Yacht has a complement of 21 officers and 229 men, all specially selected from volunteers. She also carries, for special occasions, a Royal Marines band, an accoutrement that few large yachts can boast, made up of a director of music and 26 musicians. She was designed with two functions in mind: as a home-from-home for the monarch, but also as a hospital ship in time of war. The latter is a function that she has never carried out; indeed, when it was considered sending her to the Falklands in 1982, it was pointed out that she used the wrong fuel and would be hard to replenish in the South Atlantic.
She has, once, seen action, when she rescued British and other foreign residents caught in the crossfire during the 1986 civil war in South Yemen. Britannia was anchored off Aden, once one of Britain's most important overseas naval bases and the last bastion of the "East of Suez" policy; Britain was chased out, virtually at gun point, in 1967. She returned to Aden earlier this year, but this time on lighter duties. Britannia's last outing has taken her through several Asian and Arabian ports, in the cause of trade promotion.
Yet claims about Britannia's much discussed "business function" seem madly overdone. Only about 63 days were devoted to trade promotion in the seven years 1989-96, according to the last government. Indeed, the Queen herself used the vessel for only 11 days in 1996. Her role is primarily symbolic, as most supporters and opponents of the Royal Yacht would concede; yet that symbolism is hard to unpick. Supporters see it as a useful emblem of a maritime nation that treasures its history and traditions. Opponents see it as a waste of money, a symbol of a decaying state fixated with the past.
The truth is that Britannia is to some extent both: she is a product of one attempt to redefine the monarchy for a new age. She represents tradition, with her fine polished brass and teak decks, but also an effort to popularise the monarchy and open it up through travel. The kings and queens before Elizabeth II rarely set foot outside Britain, and made few visits to the Empire. For the Queen, travel has been vital: it has been used to cement the link between Britain, the monarchy and the Commonwealth.
Virtually all of the territories ruled from London in 1953 have become Commonwealth members, and the vast majority have a coastline. Britannia has been to almost all of them.
Yet the age in which she was conceived is - though only 40 years past - rapidly becoming almost unimaginably remote. There was little criticism of the Royal Family in 1953. Britain had, after all, just gone through the Second World War, in which the young Princess Elizabeth had regularly been seen in her ATS uniform, doing her bit for the country; a world away from the young Princess Diana selling her gowns at auction in New York. Opposite Westminster Abbey was a large open space left by the Luftwaffe's bombs which was earmarked as the new headquarters for the Colonial Office. It was to be neo-Georgian, eight storeys high, with twin flagstaffs on the roof. The winds of change were not even a twinge of indigestion in 1953.
It is no surprise, then, that the image Britannia projects is a little antique. The lifestyle that she represents is a kind of austere and public luxury, something which modern members of the Royal Family seem to have found a little harder to adjust to than the Queen. Jonathan Dimbleby, in his authorised biography of Prince Charles, describes the honeymoon voyage: "Even an intimate dinner by candlelight was hardly a private affair, accompanied as it was by the camaraderie of senior officers at the table and a band of Royal Marines playing a romantic medley in the background."
The Hong Kong trip will not be the Royal Yacht's last. Later this summer, she will, once more, tour the Western Isles, before finishing her long journey in Aberdeen. After that, it is anyone's guess where she will go, or what (if anything) will replace her. Among the buyers cited in the press over the past year have been Michael Jackson and Richard Branson; doubtless others will surface. Perhaps she will become a tourist attraction, like the poor sad Queen Mary at Long Beach.
After the row this year over her replacement, it remains to be seen whether private capital is drafted in to build a new yacht, and what it might look like. Last week three designs were trotted out at a seminar in Newcastle - a training yacht, a gin palace and a cruise liner, as one of those present described them. There is no guarantee that any of these will ever see the light of day; it may be that Britannia is the last of the line.
Britannia took her name from a shore-based establishment, the Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, which in turn had it from a wooden training ship anchored in the River Dart until 1914. But there have been other Britannias. Edward VII had a racing yacht called Britannia, launched on the Clyde in 1893 and the pride and joy of his son, George V. A previous Britannia was the flagship of the Mediterranean fleet, taking part in innumerable operations from the Crimea to North Africa. This was the real foundation of British power in the 19th century: a naval force that dominated the world's waterways. It was the Royal Navy that forced open China, routing the Chinese and forcing them into the humiliating Treaty of Nanking which ceded Hong Kong Island to Britain in perpetuity. This was a strategic force with a power, scope and range that the world had never experienced before.
The Royal Yacht Britannia is a pale shadow of that, the last echo of a trumpet blast. It is a signifier without a signified, an emblem of a powerful naval state without anything behind it. The Fifties saw the emergence of competitors to British shipbuilders, a trend that would wipe out most of the British yards over the next 30 years. The shipyard that built Britannia, John Brown and Co, went through hard times and has become Kvaerner Energy which no longer makes ships.
The Royal Navy is a shadow of its former self. The Merchant Navy is all but gone. The naval bases that sustained maritime supremacy have disappeared one by one, with Hong Kong the last (unless one counts the windswept inlet of Mare Harbour in the Falklands). Britannia no longer rules the waves. She may be replaced as a ship, but as a piece of symbolism, she has outlived her era.

VSO appoints John Ayling & Associates ahead of brand push
VSO, the international development charity, has drafted in John Ayling & Associates, as it readies its first brand campaign since 2011.
VSO: hires John Ayling & Associates for upcoming campaign
The agency will handle the charity's media planning and buying. It won the business following a competitive pitch against Rapp and one other agency. VSO previously worked with OptiComm Media and MSA.
The charity creates its own advertising in-house, and predominantly uses print and digital media. The new campaign will focus on attracting experienced health and education professionals and young adults to be volunteers.
VSO currently works with volunteers in more than 30 countries and aims to recruit over 150 professional volunteers, plus a further 1,306 young volunteers for the government-funded International Citizen Service programme in this financial year.
The campaign will also raise general brand awareness. Google searches for VSO and related terms fell by 40 per cent between August 2012 and August 2013, and the charity claims this decline in awareness has impacted its ability to find volunteers.
Jo Rhodes-Jiao, head of UK volunteer delivery at VSO, said: "We were very impressed with their pitch proposal and are confident their insight-based approach and knowledge of the charity sector will enable us to engage suitable volunteers, as well as raise awareness of VSO's unique brand in the UK."
John Ayling, the chairman of John Ayling & Associates, said: "It was a challenging brief with a range of niche audiences and major issues. We are delighted to contribute our input to such a worthwhile cause."

SyncBack's synchronization and backup abilities
SyncBack is a piece of free file backup and synchronization software that can be used with hard drives, rewritable CD/DVD media (formatted with UDF), removable media, FTP servers, ZIP archives, and network shares. The ease of use is not at all hindered by the options for power users and the multiple jobs support combined with the scheduling options make it flexible enough to allow you to plan several tasks to run at different times.
As the software cannot function without having a job to do, as soon as you launch it you'll be asked to make the necessary settings for a task. Judging by the two modes sported by the application (Easy and Expert), SyncBack addresses both advanced users and the average or uninitiated. Needless to say that Expert mode brings all the options available in the application, while Easy incorporates only some basic functions.
The hardened users benefit from a large pool of functions, such as data comparison options, settings for the remote location (LAN and FTP), compression choices (compression to ZIP and password protection), sending log over email, process priority management or enabling programs to run before or after the initiation/completion of the task.
A set of advanced options is available for both the noob and the experienced user and comprises the actions to be taken in case a file changes in the source or destination. Enabling the desired alternatives requires ticking the appropriate boxes.
Synchronizing folders with SyncBack is no more complicated than backing up data. Actually, the same options are available for this module. The only difference is that you have to pick one synchronization alternative from the three offered in the initial profile creation menu: sync source directories with destination location, sync source files and sub-folders with destination location or sync source directories and selected sub-folders with destination location. Also, the same "Easy" and "Expert" modes are present to make it easy for both greenhorns and advanced users.
SyncBack may not be quite the easiest to use data synchronization and backup application on the market, but for home use it is a great alternative. It lacks the encryption option but compensates through the support of remote locations (FTP and LAN) and the set of actions to be taken when the same file has been changed in source and destination location.

Algeria siege: 37 foreigners died, PM says
Algeria's Prime Minister has said 37 foreigners of eight nationalities and one Algerian worker were killed during the hostage crisis at a gas plant.
PM Abdelmalek Sellal said 29 of the militants who overran the facility near the desert town of In Amenas had been killed and three captured alive.
The Islamists included 11 Tunisians, two Canadians, and others, he said.
The four-day siege ended at the weekend when Algerian troops recaptured the site. Five hostages are still missing.
Japan on Monday said seven of its nationals had been killed and three others remained missing.
US officials confirmed that three Americans were among the dead, with seven survivors.
UK Prime Minister David Cameron said thee Britons had been killed, with three others missing and presumed dead.
He said the hostage crisis highlighted the need for a "strong security response" matched by an "intelligent political response".
The foreigners killed or still missing also include workers from France, Norway, Malaysia, the Philippines and Romania.Planning
Latest numbers from Algeria
- One Algerian and 37 foreign workers killed in the hostage crisis
- Five foreigners still unaccounted for
- 29 militants killed
- Three hostage takers captured alive
- Militants include 11 Tunisians, two Canadians, and nationals from Egypt, Algeria, Niger, Mauritania and Mali
Mr Sellal praised the decision by Algerian special forces to storm the site, adding that the aim of the kidnappers was to "blow up the gas plant".
"The terrorists also shot some of the hostages in the head, killing them," he stressed.
The prime minister said the kidnappers had crossed into the country from northern Mali, and that they were from Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia, Mali, Niger, Canada and Mauritania.
The militants said they had taken hostages in retaliation for French intervention against Islamists in Mali earlier this month.
However Mr Sellal said the attack on the gas plant had been planned for more than two months.
Algerian police say it was organised by Mokhtar Belmokhtar, a militant leader who recently fell out with al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), which originated in Algeria but now operates throughout the Sahara and Sahel regions.
The crisis began on Wednesday when militants attacked two buses carrying foreign workers to the remote site in eastern Algeria. A Briton and an Algerian died in the incident.
The militants then took expatriates hostage at the complex, which was quickly surrounded by the Algerian army.
Algerian state media said later that 685 Algerian workers at the plant had escaped, with reports that militants told them they were only targeting non-Muslims.
- Bus attack: 05:00 local time 16 January: Heavily armed gunmen attack two buses carrying gas field workers towards In Amenas airfield. A Briton and an Algerian die in the fighting.
- Hostages taken: The militants drive to the installation at Tigantourine and take Algerian and foreign workers hostage in the living area and the main gas facility at the complex.
- Army surround complex: Security forces and the Algerian army surround the hostage-takers. Western leaders, including the UK's David Cameron, urge Algeria to consult them before taking action.
- Army attacks: 12:00 (13:00 GMT) 17 January: Algerian forces attack as militants try to move some of their captives from the facility. Reports say some hostages escape, but others are killed.
- Final assault: The Algerians ended the raid on 19 January, killing the last 11 captors after they had killed seven hostages, state media reported. At least 48 hostages and 32 militants in total are now believed to have died.

CrowdStrike's Dmitri Alperovitch Named To Foreign Policy's Leading Global Thinkers For 2013
IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CrowdStrike, a global provider of security technologies and services focused on identifying advanced cyber threats and targeted attacks, today announced its Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Dmitri Alperovitch, has been honored as one of Foreign Policy's Leading Global Thinkers for 2013. Foreign Policy's Leading Global Thinkers for 2013 have been featured in the December 2013 issue and will be honored at the Transformational Trends Forum at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, DC on December 11 th, an event featuring keynote remarks by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. Previous lists have included luminaries such as Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.
"It's a great honor to be selected as one of Foreign Policy's Leading Global Thinkers for 2013," said Dmitri Alperovitch. "As the world's government, commercial and personal computer networks increasingly face espionage intrusions, as well as disruptive and destructive attacks from the most resourced and powerful foreign military and intelligence agencies, the need for development of mature policy and diplomatic responses to cyber security incidents becomes self-evident. Advanced nation-states are now using cyber power for unrestricted economic warfare and national security-motivated espionage, as well as a force multiplier and signaling instrument in conflicts. The U.S. government urgently needs to develop an effective foreign and economic policy response against unprecedented economic cyber espionage that China is waging against Western companies and the ongoing disruptive cyber attacks against U.S. companies attributed to Iran."
Alperovitch is the co-founder and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of CrowdStrike Inc., a security technology company focused on identifying and preventing damage from targeted cyber attacks and threats. As CTO, Alperovitch leads CrowdStrike's intelligence, research and engineering teams, which have built the groundbreaking Falcon technology platform for real-time detection and attribution of cyber intrusions. Alperovitch is widely recognized as one of the top computer security researchers across the industry and as a thought-leader on cyber security policies and state tradecraft.

Missing woman's body found, no foul play suspectedOctober 10,2013
By Patrick McArdle
Staff Writer
WINHALL — Police believe they have found the body of a Townshend woman who had been missing more than a month.
Helen Holmes, a registered nurse, had been missing since Sept. 6.
In a press release, police said Holmes' 2010 Subaru Forester was found on an unpaved road off of Route 11 but said they couldn't yet confirm the body was Holmes.
A hiker reported finding the remains on Wednesday. Chief Jeffrey Whitesell of the Winhall Police Department located a woman's partial remains, along with a hand gun, about 75 feet from the Forester in the woods.
Police said that based on the evidence collected and the fact that the Forester is the same make and model and has the same registration as Holmes' vehicle, they believe the body is Holmes but official identification is pending.
Holmes' family has been notified of what police found.
Police do not believe the death involved foul play.MORE IN This Just InWOODBURY Vermont State Police were called out to deal with two women who got into a fight on... Full StoryWATERBURY CENTER Vermont State Police are looking for information about several vehicles they... Full Story

It's been a long time coming, but finally, the intro video my story Avatar: Spirit of Earth is complete. For one reason or another this took a long time, but now that it's done, I really feel content with saying my story is complete...ish. What? I could always use more art, and who knows? This animation may just be the beginning!
For those who don't know, Avatar: Spirit of Earth is an original story written by me, but is based in the universe of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra. It follows the Earthbending Avatar who will come after Korra, and his journey to stop a dark threat and save two worlds. What started out as a simple writeup quickly became a 66 chapter saga, and the only thing needed to finish it, and make it a true part of the Avatar universe, was the intro video.
This intro was a true collaboration project, with two artists helping me make this. The music was done by a true fan of the TLA/LOK universe, and knew exactly how to make Spirit of Earth sound like the other intros, with our own flare of course!
So, now that it's "complete", what are my hopes for this? Honestly, I would love for fans of TLA/LOK to rally behind Spirit of Earth and share this video and the story with the world. With Legend of Korra coming to an end soon, we're all going to wonder what, if anything, will come next. I truly believe Spirit of Earth can be the next Avatar story, and if we get enough fans behind this, we can make this happen!
So, watch the video, let me know what you think, and if you like it, please spread the word. Want to read the story too? Just click the link below.
With that, please enjoy:

In Bruges update feed
"Lots of cussing and shooting and jibberish. Just what I like to watch on a cool Monday afternoon."
" Source: Wikipedia ~ Thanks to Listal Member white blood"
Hilarious black-comedy! The Hot Fuzz of 2008.
"I loved this film to bits because I think that it is one of the very few black comedies that made me laugh. It was a comedy that I was thinking wouldnt be that good really because it isnt that common but when I did see it, it was absolutely hilarious. It is one of my favourite comedies of all time. I really thought it was a comedy with a lot of class. There was a lot of very British humour involved and there was a lot of hilarious attitudes with the characters and the country they are in and also one of the characters takes the piss out of midgets. That character reminds me a lot of Otto in A Fish Called Wanda because of the way they both are with the country they are in. Like Otto discriminates the English obviously in a nasty way in his point of view but in our point of view its hilariou" read more

Heti Spinal Tapin perään lisää laatuhuumoria, vaikkakin erinlaista. In Brugesin huumori perustuu suurimaksi osaksi näppärään dialogiin ja varsinkin fuck-sanaan, mutta muutama lievästi absurdi väkivaltaan liittyvä vitsi on päässyt mukaan. Parhaat vitsit ovat kirjoitettu Colin Farrellille ja mies vetääkin roolinsa erinomai"
""Maybe that's what hell is; the entire rest of eternity spend in fucking Bruges." Colin Farrell was surprisingly good in the dark comedy about two assassins stuck in Bruges after a botched job."

"Every once in a while, a film comes into my life that will provide more than just a sliver of escapism. Sometimes, it will enrich my life with a bit knowledge that will leave me not just entertained, but also just a bit more educated. For instance, this movie. After watching In Bridges, I came to find out that a lot of midgets tend to kill themselves. A disproportionate amount, actually. Villechaize off of Fantasy Island. Possibly somebody from the Time Bandits. And another famous midget, but ca"

DISCLAIMER: This profile is NOT the NC-17 version. The moderators forced me to edit out explosive boat chases along the Italian Riviera and the gritty depictions of industrial espionage in the foul underbelly of Santa Barbara, plus all the profanity, copious nudity, and tasteful love scenes from my brief stint as a neuroscientist. Also, it's only in 2D, which doesn't do me justice.

Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
Stories fascinate me. I write (both fiction and non-fiction), and I make short movies with a few very talented friends. We started doing it just for fun, but the last few have turned out really awesome, and our next project should be heading for the film-fest circuit.
I'm a full-time student, studying business and marketing. I'm passionate about creating a story behind a product -- and making people want it so bad they'll camp out all night long in front of the Mac store just to have it. I'm really interested in the psychology of storytelling.

Falling out of bed Sunday morning and stumbling to Starbucks for a piping hot triple-shot latte and a very chill morning -- devouring banana bread and reading a great book in my favorite corner by the window where the sun comes in.

Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.

Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Meeting up with friends for dinner, probably at the Grasshopper in Morristown.

How 24 Cape Town guesthouses benefit from sharing
I came from a corporate environment where you tried to defeat your competitors. You did not usually consider working with them.
When we started out with our guesthouse we began doing print advertising, because that was the best way get the word out as newcomers at the time. I invited other guesthouse owners – there were about 20 of us at the time – to get together in an informal association, which is now called Camps Bay Accommodation Association. And everyone was happy with that. We were all new to the guesthouse industry.
