Speeding up Evolution
A Game (413 comments)
A game is only a game when it has rules and the players stick to those rules. We're already into some fierce meaninglessness in this nihilistic modern era. Totally divorced and separated from Nature, we've even lost the ability to fully understand our lost-ness.
Gene manipulation will only make the rules even more wispy and the distance between us and Nature even greater. Many may think this is our destiny--I did--to self-rig ourselves. But I know now it will be our final spastic, shuttering death. Why? Because we MASSIVELY underestimate the difficulty and complexity! Nature has been at this game for some 3 billion years, and She takes Her sweet time. And now in the blink of an eye, we think we're in command of those billions of years of wisdom and experience. Fools rush in where angels take a break. We're soooo delusional! Children playing with fire. Children soon burnt beyond all recognition, dying painfully and slowly.

Perth weatherRe: Perth weatherI went for a half hour ride last Sunday, met my wife for coffee & cake at Deep Water Point, and all the while I was eyeing the dark clouds overhead. Sure enough it bucketed down as I left, but I rode half an hour until I was nearly home, then detoured past the Kent St Weir and back along the Roe from Spencer Rd for a total of 90 mins/42km. An hour of that was in the rain and wind, but I was enjoying the ride so much I didn't want to stop.
Riding and writing my way to health and happiness.
Re: Perth weatherbeeeyootiful this morning

Re: Perth weatherLike spring for first day of TdF centenary. Just used a can and half of insect spray on mega plague of flying ant like insects along with ants that seemed to come out of winter hiding.

Re: Perth weatherI have a half-hour commute and managed to get home last night, and get in this morning completely dry. Unless you count the bus that perfectly timed its run through the puddle, just as the PSP was close to the road...
Re: Perth weatherI got thoroughly soaked this morning. It was raining from the time I left home to arriving at work. The problem is that it was cloudy with patches of blue sky and sun when I was getting ready but by the time I left the rain had set in. I feel very fortunate to have great drying facilities at work so I won't have to cycle home in wet gear.

Re: Perth weather
I have to admit, I passed a guy a while back north of Leederville Vincent St exit where it's undulating and lots of puddles were, without noticing the timing I happened to pass just as I was beside him and I splashed into a big puddle, flooded his feet, he reacted with a surprised "ahhh naawwww!" which made me chuckle for the next couple hundred metres as you do at other peoples mild misfortune. Now there's one more thing I look out for when passing =P

You can't help it if you have to be at work by a certain time, but the BOM radar is worth its metaphorical weight in gold at times like these.
Re: Perth weathergot a little rained on this morning in king's park, then dried off to an extent
then just as we finished our laps for the day we got absolutely SOAKED. not looking forward to putting on wet socks and knicks this afternoon. inflammatory statement or idea
Re: Perth weather
I have a lot of interia when it comes to cycling. Because all my gear is laid out and all I have to do is get dressed and leave, it just seems like a lot less hassle than hiking to the bus station to wait in the rain for a bus and get wet walking from the bus to the train and from the train to work. Getting soaked cycling to work was my best option this morning even though it was pretty miserable. Realistically, there are people that are a lot worse off than getting a little wet on the way to a secure job... <removed by request>
Re: Perth weather
I had the opposite experience, it was raining when I got up and I decided to take the motorcycle. By the time I left it was sunny and I didn't get a drop of rain on me (just a bit of spray from trucks on the wet road). Looking at the weather this afternoon I think I may have made the right choice anyway.

Re: Perth weatherI almost literally flew home heading east along mounts bay rd. Strava PRs ahoy on the heavy commuter. Bit wild in the dark though.
Re: Perth weatherHopefully the house doesn't leave Kansas tonight... 74 with 87 gusts for Ocean Reef at the moment is a high constant speed low difference to the gusts. Willyweather says Rottnest is the nation's windiest live reading with 85kph.
The distance rate of change for the radar loop is impressive. Lowest wind speed after 5am southerly so some respite for north to south morning mob. http://wind.willyweather.com.au/wa/perth/perth.html
Re: Perth weatherIt was going through failed traffic lights that was not much fun. I thought in these cases they were treated as give-way in all directions, but some cars didn't even break when they approached the intersection.
Some large branches on the roads/paths, so take care tomorrow, and if you can take the time to remove the bigger ones, karma may be returned by reducing the chance of receiving a flat or broken spoke.
Re: Perth weatherI was making 25 km/h heading down the Roe PSP in the morning, and 45km/h heading back again in the afternoon. Unfortunately, by the afternoon the PSP was littered with leaves and twigs, with the occasional small branch thrown in for good measure, so it was a tad exciting.
Riding and writing my way to health and happiness.

Follow-Up Postings:
ice, ice, baby! We have a little more. Most rural roadways are blocked with debris as the trees hanging over the roads break off. The temps have been 32-34 for the last 2 hrs and no more is accumulating. Some is coming off, as it better before the winds come up when the backside of the system comes in with north winds tonight. No significant damage to any important trees here at the house. |
So glad you didn't have a lot of damage. It quit raining here and most of the ice is gone. thanks goodness |

yeah.. my "winter solstice planting" is gonna hafta wait.. brrr |
Sorie, It looks so pretty, but I'm glad the rain washed most of it away. Y'all are a lot better off without it. We had the tiniest bit of freezing rain last night that was just starting to stick to the trees at 31 degrees, and then the temperatures came up from 31.8 to 35 overnight so whatever little bit of ice had stuck was just melted and washed away. Scott, I'm glad the important trees weren't damaged .and hope that the power stays on. Y'all really need for that ice to melt and come off the trees before the back end of that storm gets there with those higher winds. We got rain, rain, rain.....the most rain we've had in a 24-hour period in months. We have 2.26" and have huge puddles and mud everywhere. I love it. Since it seldom rains here and no one can drive in it, we had a couple of wrecks on the interstate last night and this morning, but nothing like they had in central OK. Bon, The important thing is that the winter solstice is here, so now the days start getting longer again. Yay! If you do your winter solstice plantings a tiny bit late, it won't hurt a thing. Dawn |
We got a pretty good amount here in bixby. not as bad as 2007 but bad enough to dropped some power lines. thankfully PSO has been very aggressive in clearing trees for the past few years. I did have to get out in the rain yesterday and rebuild a service drop. crossing my fingers I Dont have to today. Mike |

Great pictures. |
Wow those pic are really pretty! bbbrrrr |
Oh sure rub it in. It's snowing right now here in Grove!!! :) enjoy your vacation! |
Greatplains, I love the photos of your icy cacti. Thanks for sharing them with us. Moni, Timing is everything, is it not? You flew? You didn't ride your bike? I am so shocked. (grin) Sorie, I was surprised yesterday when I saw that your area was getting snow. We were a toasty warm 41 degrees with sunny skies in the afternoon, although we started out with an overnight low of 16 degrees, which made for a frosty morning and frozen puddles yesterday. There will not be a white Christmas in Love County this year. Instead, we're having a Muddy Christmas. I don't mind it, though, because the recent rainfall has brought our county out of drought so at least we won't be having a Dusty Christmas. Dawn |
This storm has turned out to be much more destructive for me than the last one. It will take about an hour per acre to get it cleaned up so I'm looking at about 6-8 full days of work to get everything off the ground. A few trees will not recover, but overall still not as bad as it could have been (as long as the temps get to mid-30s today before the wind picks up). |

GP Thanks for sharing your pictures. I've enjoyed them. They're so pretty i keep clicking the link to see them again. Will the ice harm the cacti? Moni I hope ya'll are enjoying yourselves. I must be honest, I'm glad I'm at home caring for the furries and keeping them warm and indoors snuggling with the children playing games with a warm stove nearby. I've never been to a beach. It's one of those "must dos". Dawn, I'm glad you mentioned the moisture. Today as I was sloshing through the mud my heart hoped the drier parts of Oklahoma was getting some benefit from this mess. bon |

Scott, I'm saddened to hear about your trees. Your posts regarding give me anxiety, because they remind me of the uncertainty I have over our pecan tree that is ...surely .. a goner and precariously balancing half of itself over the house. Two smaller limbs already came down. They did not do any damage, though. That scattered experience with a less-than-stellar tree trimmer was certainly worth the effort. Had we not gotten those limbs over the roof down after the last ice storm..... |
- Posted by GreatPlains1 7OK (My Page) on Wed, Dec 25, 13 at 14:10
Tree damage is always the worst in ice. I'm sorry for anyone who got hit. We had roof damage in the first storm, our drain holes froze up on the roof (flat) and the leak was so bad I had to use the kitchen trash can to catch the water. We also had to climb up on the roof in the ice and clear out the ice buildup. There is some sheetrock/patching/ painting indoor work ahead. The cactus do just fine in snow and ice. I got some breakage but that recovers quickly. Some of the barrels looked like crystal like you would buy at a jewelry store. |

Agave parryii crystalized in ice. The colors were gorgeous and the weird thing was how the ground was left clear making the whole garden look like it was covered in glass ice sculptures. I've never seen that kind of ice on just the plants before. |

It was an odd ice storm here in Grove also since the ground was still warm enough to melt the ice that made it to the ground, but it froze in trees and plants above the ground. We had some small limbs come down, but nothing like the storms of years before when you would be in bed, pitch black outside because of no electricity, and hear trees falling. You just had to wait until morning to learn which yard they were in. |

The Fourth World Documentary Tour, Hudsonville, MI
There's a hidden world out there that is getting ready to explode. Most of us know little—if anything about it. It's the world of slums. One of every six human beings inhabits this hidden place and if the United Nations is right, that number will triple by 2050.
Join Dordt College alumni and friends on February 27, and watch the award-winning film The Fourth World documentary produced by faculty member Mark Volkers.
This issue is too big for just a few "important" government people to be thinking about. It's something we must all think about. And act on. After the screening, Volkers will lead a time of discussion for everyone to wrestle with the topic of the film together. There will also be time to mingle and enjoy refreshments with other alumni and friends of the college.
This is a free event! Please RSVP by February 23, so we can plan accordingly.

Counterpoint: Which comes first, the SAN or the backup solution?
- How much data will be migrated to the SAN?
- What is the average backup load per week, month and year? How is it changing?
- What is the corporate standard for storage system capacity? (And if there isn't one, is there an expectation that the storage arrays and tape systems will be fully utilized immediately, or is there a need to under provision for either performance or availability reasons?)

If your debut novel wins the Costa Book of the Year then the 2nd book is always going to be anticipated with some relish and Stef Penney doesn't disappoint with this murder mystery, set in the gypsy community in the 80's. Told through the voices of the private investigator who is trying to find a missing girl and a charming 14 year old gypsy boy the story twists and turns drawing the reader on to the inevitable – and only - conclusion.
Comparison: Barbara Kingsolver, Alistair Macleod, Joseph BoydenFor more see our Author 'Like for Like' recommendation system
Small-time private investigator Ray Lovell veers between paralysis and delirium in a hospital bed. But before the accident that landed him there, he had promised to find Rose Janko. Rose was married to the charismatic son of a travelling gypsy family, Ivo Janko. When Ray starts to investigate her disappearance he's surprised that her family are so hostile towards him. The Jankos have not had an easy past. They are a clan touched by tragedy - either they are cursed, or they are hiding a terrible secret. Could it be that Rose's discovery of that secret led to her disappearance all those years ago? Soon Ray wishes that he'd never asked the question.
Stef Penney was born and grew up in Edinburgh. After a degree in Philosophy and Theology from Bristol University she turned to film-making, studying Film and TV at Bournemouth College of Art. On graduation she was selected for the Carlton Television New Writers Scheme and has since written and directed two short films.

The provision and management of affairs takes center stage of this volume as well as the right of non-contracted management. The annotations of this classic and historic core area of civil law are flanked by the explanations of the public offer of a reward including the competition and the profit assurances as well as custodianship and landlord liability. This is by no means only about reconditioning and orienting the extensive administration of justice and literature, which have grown since the publication of the 1995 pre-edit. On the contrary, in the agency agreement law, arranged through European legal guidelines, numerous new regulations to the law of the - previously unknown - remittance agreement and the payment agreement as well as the giro agreement were inserted, which is first explained in a great commentary. This new Staudinger volume also requires, with this, the attention of special practiced lawyers legally interested in banks. The volume includes independent solution suggestions with detailed arguments effectively through its analytical penetration of subject matter and its systematic material processing as well as through the efforts of the authors in the Staudinger tradition.

A helpful note about the bridge
Hi all! I can't believe I forgot to mention this anywhere! A helpful tip for those of you building the bridge, for the outer pieces of the box, put the pocket holes on the OUTSIDE! That way they're sandwiched between the taller pieces and you won't have to fill/paint them!!! I did that and just nailed the dividers in, and it made this the easiest piece!! Hopefully this'll help anyone else building this :-)

Is anyone here growing bananas in hydroponics without a greenhouse? I tried a few years back and they grew very well, but I couldn't get them to over winter. I don't have a greenhouse and tried to over winter them in my basement....big mistake. I'd like to try again, but will have to keep them in a warmer part of my home.
Any help will be appricated. John |
Follow-Up Postings:
Where are you located? If you have a good location within your living area, bananas should be quite happy with the conditions provided you can provide enough light. Bananas are not really something that goes dormant to be overwintered. Since they are tropical, they would probably be happy growing at room temperature year round. Again provided there is enough light. In central FL bananas survive outdoors in the ground though when it gets too cold the tops will die back and if it doesn't stay warm enough long enough, there might not be any bananas from the plant. I've heard of people in the north growing bananas as ornamentals and overwintering them but they are only growing them for the ornamental foliage and not expecting any fruit. |
- Posted by plantman532000 z5 NcntrlPa. (My Page) on Wed, Jul 11, 07 at 14:07
I am in zone 5, north central pa. Light is the main problem as I only have one east window for a dwarf orinico and gran nian and two SDC plants, nowhere enough space. I keep my Truly tiny and Little Prince under lights in several places around the house, no problem. It is the bigger ones that I am trying to find space for. |
Bananas have rhizomes - right? Isn't it one of those plants then that are said not to be suitable for growing hydroponically? What gives? |
It all depends on the type of system you are using. Something with a rhizome might not be appropriate for a small NFT trough but they probably grow fine in a large media filled container that gets drip fed or possibly even wick fed. |
- Posted by plantman532000 z5 NcntrlPa. (My Page) on Wed, Aug 15, 07 at 15:37
They actually grow from corms. I have two super, super dwarf bananas (truly tiny and little prince) growing is S/H and they are doing fine. As good as if not better than the ones I have in pots. I have seen photos and heard of many others growing larger bananas in active systems, but most if not all are in greenhouses. I don't have the luxury of a greenhouse at this time so I am looking at options of hydro growing for in the home. john |
I have a banana in a very large top drip hydro system and it is now around 6-7' tall (no fruit of course). I keep it indoors next to a window all year though. |

City chief laments scoring record
Second-placed Blues have the best defensive record in the league, conceding 33 goals in 40 games, but they have netted 47 - leaders Wolves have a tally of 71 - and are only the 14th highest-scoring club in the division. McLeish told the Birmingham Mail: "We have struggled to score goals. I think everybody forgets that only two of our forwards are real goalscorers - [Garry] O'Connor and [Kevin] Phillips are real finishers. "We definitely haven't had as good of a return from the strikers as we would have liked this season but I think, to be fair to the strikers, I don't think the service to them from midfield has been outstanding all season."

Newton Citizen
COVINGTON -- Politics and crime don't make good companions, but headlines were made in 2009 when law enforcement became involved with at least two Newton County politicians -- J.C. Henderson and Horace Don Gresham.
Henderson, a Newton County commissioner, was arrested on the afternoon of Oct. 10 at his home at 7134 Puckett St. by Covington Police Department officers following a complaint of domestic abuse.
Although both Henderson, 53, and his wife denied a physical assault had taken place, a 911 call was placed by Quinn Henderson, the Hendersons' son, who said he heard arguing and made the call at his mother's request.
CPD Officers observed injuries to Mrs. Henderson's face and charged J.C. Henderson with battery under the Family Violence Act.
Would-be politician Horace Don Gresham, 72, was indicted by a Newton County grand jury after fraudulently swearing in an affidavit to the Newton County Board of Elections in April 2008 that he did not have a prior conviction for a felony involving moral turpitude. In fact, Gresham had been convicted of sodomy with a child under the age of 14 in DeKalb County in 1998.
Gresham pleaded guilty in July to false swearing in connection with his attempt to run for a seat on the Newton County Board of Education in July 2008. He was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to pay a fine of $1,000.
After his sodomy conviction was made public by the Citizen, Gresham removed his name from the ballot just prior to a hearing before the Newton County Board of Elections in 2008, but vowed he would run for the District 2 Board of Commissioners seat in 2010.
"He will not be eligible to seek office upon the expiration of his sentence," said District Attorney Ken Wynne following Gresham's sentencing on the false swearing charges. "It is our hope that this puts an end to Mr. Gresham's political aspirations. Should he think otherwise, probation will not be an option in the future."
Gresham's ill-fated bid for a seat on the school board inspired State Sen. John Douglas, R-Social Circle, to introduce a bill to the state Legislature this year that would prohibit convicted sex offenders from running for election on local boards of education. The bill became law on July 1.

ANACONDA — A jury found an Anaconda commissioner guilty Thursday evening of having sexual contact with a child.
The jury deliberated for about 2 1/2 hours before finding Robert Pierce guilty of felony sexual intercourse without consent and sexual assault. Judge Brad Newman ordered that Pierce be taken into police custody after the hearing.
The judge will set a sentencing date for Pierce after a pre-sentence investigation is conducted.
The case went to the jury just after 3 p.m. in Anaconda District Court after four days of testimony in which Pierce, 52, is accused of having inappropriate contact with a girl.
Charging documents allege Pierce had lewd contact with the juvenile in April 2006 and April 2008. Prosecutors claim he touched her inappropriately the first time when she was 9 at his home in Opportunity. The child didn't tell her mother until 2012 after a Super Bowl party.
Assistant Attorney Generals Dan Guzynski and Mary Cochenour prosecuted the case against Pierce. They claimed it took the victim four years to muster the courage to tell her mother about the crimes.
Pierce, who pleaded not guilty to the charges in March, was represented by attorney Victor Bunitsky. Bunitsky tried to argue that the victim was coerced into lying about the claims of sexual assault.
Pierce was arrested in August after a six-month investigation into the allegations by the state Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation.
Pierce represents District 4 on the Anaconda-Deer Lodge County Council of Commissioners. According to the county website, he is an insurance agent with Farmers' Insurance, with an office in Butte.
Pierce is serving his second term as commissioner, but the Anaconda-Deer Lodge County charter says that the position must be vacated "upon the conviction of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction,'' Chief Executive Connie Ternes-Daniels said Thursday evening.
She said the commission will follow a process outlined in the charter to appoint someone to fill out the remainder of the term. Pierce's term is slated to expire in December 2014.
Ternes-Daniels said no timeline has been set for the process.

Stan's NoTubes Flow EX 27.5in Wheels
Price: $595.00

Quickly becoming the enduro standard, 27. 5-inch wheels like the Stan's NoTubes Flow EX Wheels provide the perfect balance of weight and traction for the conditions that those events warrant. But, being a Stan's NoTubes product, there's more to the picture then just being another mid-size option. The new Flow EX rim is now even wider, and it features a redesign of Stan's NoTube's Bead Socket Technology for an enhanced tire-to-rim seal. Additionally, this proprietary technology enhances the rim's durability, which makes the Flow EX the strongest rim in the NoTubes' line. The sidewalls are now 14% thicker than the prior iteration, further enhancing rigidity and a resilience to dents. You'll also find that Stan's made the EX's spoke bed 33% thicker. So, spoke pull-through is basically a thing of the past. The outside-width of the rim has been increased to 29. 1mm, and the interior width has also been stretched -- reaching out to 25. 5mm. This change not only enhances tire volume and roundness, but it also permits a tighter rim-to-tire seal. Essentially, this attribute bolsters both traction and tire roundness. Meanwhile, the rim width has been followed by a slight tweak to the internal arch's profile, providing even more lateral stiffness. Like the old Flow, Stan's NoTubes uses 6061 aluminum, and it's been drilled for 32 spokes with no eyelets. The Flow EX rim is laced to a Stan's 3. 30 HD hubset. The hubs house smooth-spinning chromoly cartridge bearings that ride on lightweight 7075 alloy axles. The rear hub body features large, 58mm flanges. Meanwhile, the drive side houses a hardened 30-point engagement ring, while the non-drive side is machined to reduce weight. The front hub also gets a 58mm flange in order to balance strength and weight. The freehub is aluminum and it's compatible with Shimano and SRAM cassettes, with an XX1 driver that's available separately. The Stan's Flow EX 27. 5in Wheels is laced with 2. 0/1. 7/2. 0 butted steel spokes and alloy nip...

It's a really really long story, but it ends with me eating like-- an entire box of mac & cheese for dinner. Ugh. I'm all sorts of frustrated. I wanted mcdonalds, but felt alright settling for the mac and cheese.. LoL. At least I didn't eat all that grease on top of the white bleached carbs. At least the other end ofthe story is that my daughter now has a new daycare provider that will definately be better than the last and hopefully really really good for my 3 year old.

sorry i meant that i would try to obtain a decent understanding of him by playing bots so that i would not trash other peoples games
Ashe (my favorite champ) for crowd control. Caitlyn for range. Varus or Vayne for sniping. Kog'Maw and Twitch are also great choices. Corki was great with Trinity Force, but they nerfed it a bit. There are a lot of choices. Each one has strengths and weaknesses.
Software Engineer
I love Ashe for the CC and kiting ability. Obviously I'm partial to MF. Her ult is fun, although good teams will interrupt it and/or punish you for stopping to channel it. Caitlyn and Graves both have decent escapes, and Caitlyn has great range. Graves' range isn't as good, but he has nice damage and is a little tankier than most ADC with his True Git.
Schmick beat me to it. A good Ashe is absolutely terrifying. MF is for AoE Comps. Caitlyn is for range. Graves is bursty. Tristana though, she's the little Yordle that could. Recommend them all but Graves. Graves is a little too forgiving for an ADC to learn on I feel.
If you want to an easy to learn ADC, then go with Cait.
Caitlyn, ashe, graves, and miss fortune are by far the easiest adc's
riots in every forum about what champs they use and why, but none of em are in any forum to better the game like how MM sucks and how trolls running rampant wonder why they only answer forums like these and not those

NanoLumens® Named A Technology Association of Georgia Top 10 Innovative Technology Company
The Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), the stateâs leading association dedicated to the promotion and economic advancement of Georgiaâs technology industry, today announced NanoLumens as one of its Top 10 Innovative Technology Companies in Georgia. It is the second time in four years that NanoLumens has been cited by TAG for its ground-breaking LED display technolgy. TAG will recognize this prestigious group at the 2013 Georgia Technology Summit (GTS) on March 20, 2013, at the Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta.
The âTop 10â most innovative technology companies are chosen from among TAGâs âTop 40â 2013 list and were chosen based on a number of criteria, including degree of innovation, scope and financial impact of innovation, likelihood of success, and promotion of Georgiaâs innovative efforts nationally and internationally.
âThe 2013 Top 10 finalists are an elite group of innovators who represent the very best from Georgiaâs technology community,â said Tino Mantella, President & CEO of TAG. âThese finalists are shining examples of what makes our state such a hotbed for technology and we applaud them for standing out as leaders in Georgiaâs technology community.â
This yearâs Top 10 companies were selected from among over 90 applications submitted by companies from across Georgia. Each company selected to be in the Top 10 will be given the opportunity to present at the annual Georgia Technology Summit before a crowd of more than 1,000 of the stateâs technology leaders.
âOur ninth year of the Top 40/Top 10 was an overwhelming success, based on the number of truly innovative companies that participated in the competition,â said Dennis Zakas, a partner and founder of Zakas & Leonard, LLP, Chair of Group Office Buys, LLC, and the chairperson of the Top 40/Top 10 Selection Committee. âThe Top 40 winners demonstrate the depth and breadth of Georgiaâs technology community.â
âWe are honored to be named a Top 10 finalist for the second time in four years,â said Rick Cope, President & CEO of NanoLumens. âOur remarkable LED display technology is helping to revolutionize the entire digital signage industry, and, in the process, we are ushering in an entirely new era in âone too manyâ communication that will make the visual presentation of information and entertainment a more prominent part of our every day lives. All of us at NanoLumens are so proud to be buidling this success story here in Georgia.â
The 2013 Georgia Technology Summit is expected to bring together C-level executives, entrepreneurs, technology professionals and academia to celebrate and recognize Georgiaâs technology community. In addition to presentations from some of the top technology influencers in the nation, the newest member of the Technology Hall of Fame of Georgia will be inducted.

The e-reader's newest update lets users join the Goodreads community and can help parents motivate their kids to read.
The giant Web retailer pays an undisclosed amount to acquire the book-reading social network.
Thanks to an ever-shifting mobile landscape and a strong relationship with developers, 2014 is the perfect time for Amazon's smartphone move.
The software update brings lots of new features to the original Paperwhite, including Goodreads integration, FreeTime, and Page Flip.
If you want to stop sharing every little detail of your activities, you'll need to delve into Facebook's privacy settings.
How will Amazon top online groceries and delivery drones in 2014? The online retail giant might just focus on getting your attention via some new devices.
Amazon plans to push the update to compatible Kindles in the coming weeks, but you don't have to wait.
Welcome to CNET Australia's App of the Day, where you can see some of the coolest, silliest and most useful apps in action.
The new version of Kindle's back-lit Paperwhite e-reader is available locally from Big W and Dick Smith.
Amazon has taken the lid off three new Kindle Fire tablets, shipping on 18 October — the first that will be available to Australians at the same time as the US.

Private Tour.Wing your way to Sri Lanka. Lush jungles, abundant wildlife, cool mountains and glorious beaches to...
See full tour itinerary
Wadduwa is a small tropical paradise located in the south west of Sri Lanka. It is a perfect beach stay being only 35 kilometres from Colombo and boasts a long, golden sandy beach with crystal clear water. The beach itself is fringed with palm trees and it is possible to relax and watch the fishermen bringing in the day's catch.
Swimming, snorkelling and diving are all popular activities. However if you want to do something more local then try and catch a local wedding ceremony. Hundreds of local people get married here each year and it is a wonderfully colourful spectacle not to be missed.
There are a couple of bars and restaurants as well as stores selling Sri Lankan handicrafts and jewellery. The village itself has all the charm of a traditional village with a distinctly laid-back atmosphere. There are very few amenities available at the village as daytime and evening activities are organised at the beach hotels and resorts themselves.
Coconut fibre is a highly used local resource and you will find many products made using it, like brooms, carpets etc.
The train ride along the coast from Wadduwa to the south is well worth doing. It takes you on a pleasant picturesque journey along palm fringed beaches and local villages.

Hungarian Home Birth Campaigner on Trial
Supporters of Agnes Gereb, 60, who has been under pre-trial house arrest for over two years, say she has been victimised by aggressive state prosecutors and the medical establishment.
Hungarian doctors are often paid informal "gratitude" tips for services in hospitals including assisting in birthing.
Gereb, who has delivered 3,500 babies in private homes, received a two-year prison sentence in February 2012 as well as a 10-year ban on practising gynaecology and midwifery over the deaths of two newborns in 2006 and 2007.
The enforcement of the sentence however was postponed following her request for clemency to President Janos Ader, who has said he will wait until after the verdict in the current trial before deciding on a pardon.
Donal Kerry, spokesperson for a campaign group supporting Gereb, said that in most other European Union countries the case would be before a professional midwife investigation committee rather than a criminal court.
The latest criminal charges relate to three separate cases of alleged negligent malpractice as well as carrying out home births during a period when she was banned.
"Agnes has the full public support of the three mothers in the birth cases coming before the court," said Kerry, who added that six international women?s and human rights organisations have called on Hungary's justice minister to review the case.

Q&A: Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter
What can I tell you about Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter? Nothing. I barely know them, and anything I shared with you would just be stuff I've Googled. Because I don't want to waste either of our time, I asked David Wain, their frequent collaborator and friend, to write this intro for me. He was kind enough to throw together the following semi-concise summation of Michael and Michael's respective careers and promotable upcoming projects
Although Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter both grew up in different parts of New Jersey, they amazingly never met until they both got to NYU.They ended up co-founding a sketch comedy group, which I later begged to join, on my hands and knees.This troupe (The State) eventually had its own series on MTV, which lasted a few years until the group crashed and burned in an ill-fated attempt at prime time on CBS.(The State's MTV series comes out on DVD July 14th.)
Around the same time, the three of us started hosting a nightclub "alternative comedy" variety show in New York called Stella, which ran for eight years, and eventually spawned a bunch of dirty web videos (The Stella Shorts), a TV series that was cancelled after one season (even though it was awesome), and a live act that still occasionally tours the USA. (A new Stella "Live in Boston" DVD comes out this fall, and a movie is in the works.)
In 2000 Showalter and I went to Honesdale, Pennsylvania and made a movie together, the first for both of us, called Wet Hot American Summer, which also featured our friend Michael Ian Black as a gay who marries Bradley Cooper. Over the years, the three of us collaborated on tons of other stuff, a lot of which either sucked or bombed or both.But we had a lot of fun playing Scrabble during the down time.
Michael, Michael and I have much in common (e.g. being Jewish, liking chicken wings, liking dick jokes) but Michael and Michael share many things I don't (e.g. chess skills, knowledge of sports, the ability to read a book cover to cover). That list grew by one on July 15th, when their new TV series Michael and Michael Have Issues debuted on Comedy Central.I haven't seen it yet but I believe the show takes place in a fictional version of New York where I don't exist.Thank god it's fictional, because Michael and Michael are two of the funniest, smartest people I've ever met, they are two of my best friends, and if we weren't a part of each other's lives, I'd have no one to not cast in my movies.
And now... here's an interview Eric did with Michael and Michael!
Eric Spitznagel: Based on the title alone, Michael and Michael Have Issues suggests that you guys have some personal things to work out. How much has working on this show been like therapy?
Michael Ian Black: Well, in Gestalt Therapy you do a lot of primal screaming. So in that sense, it's been very good.
Michael Showalter: It's also comparable to EST, in that Mike and I go days without urinating.
MIB: Wait, they don't let you pee in EST? I didn't know that.
MS: That's right. It's because it helps you gain control of yourself. Or something.
Does all this screaming and not urinating have anything to do with the plot?
MIB: No, it all happens off-screen.
MS: It's part of our acting preparation. Holding in our pee is a very important part of getting into character.
It sounds painful.
MS: Oh, it most certainly is. You've seen Apocalypse Now, haven't you? Martin Sheen's got nothing on us.
So which one of you had a heart attack in the middle of a scene?
MS: You mean as our characters or as ourselves?
MS: Michael Black's character seems to find himself in the hospital a fair amount.
MIB: At least once. Wait, no, twice. And Showalter suffers from lockjaw.
MS: Not really.
MIB: No, I just made that up.
MS: It only seems like I have lockjaw because I have—
MIB: A very prominent chin.
MS: I have a William F. Buckley chin.
MIB: He has a rare form of tetanus which makes him appear to be an arch-conservative patrician.
Are the characters in this show based on you in name alone?
MIB: They're highly autobiographical, although in a James Frey-esque kinda way.
MS: Could you elaborate on that a little?
MIB: We made a lot of shit up.
So you're telling the truth except when you're lying?
MIB: There are definitely things that are true in it, and there are definitely things that aren't in any way true. We'll leave it to the viewer to discern which is which.
Michael and Michael Have Issues isn't the first time you've both played narcissists. Even if you're being ironic, is it at least partly a reflection of your own genuine narcissism?
MIB: The thing about narcissistic people is that they don't think they're being narcissistic. So I would answer your question by saying no, not at all.
MS: Narcissists are very fascinating people.
MIB: And it's fair to say that you find yourself very fascinating.
MS: I think narcissists are endlessly watchable. The way they view the world and the way they interact within the world. Like Mike said, they have no concept of their behavior or how it might be affecting other people. So comedically, it's a very fun type of character to play. They are bulls in a china shop, twenty-four seven. They're human bulls in the china shop of life, and you can quote me on that. I'm trade-marking it as we speak.
MIB: That was a great way to spin a trite cliche
MS: Thank you.
MIB: into something equally trite.
MS: Oh. Not thanks.
But aren't you just having your cake and eating it too? Isn't playing a narcissist like saying "I'm being so racist right now just to point out how not racist I actually am?"
MIB: Probably.
You get to be a narcissistic asshole and because it's all done in air-quotes, you can't be criticized.
MS: Yes, yes, yes, yes, that's it. You nailed it. It's a disclaimer. We get to act on all of our uncivil impulses in a make-believe way and it's very cathartic.
On the hierarchy of entertainment, how insecure and fucked-up are comics?
MIB: How are you defining this hierarchy? Are you doing it on a number system?
Maybe hierarchy isn't the right word. Within the vast array of creative vocations available .
MIB: How fucked-up are comics?
Yeah. Is a musician more fucked-up than a writer, and are they all less fucked up than sitcom actors?
MIB: Showalter may disagree, but I think comedians are not any more or less fucked-up than anybody else. It's just that they make their livelihood talking about it incessantly.
MS: I totally agree. I'm probably going to get into trouble for saying this, but I think comedians, by and large, are fairly normal. Most of the comedians I know exist within the continuum of "people." (Long pause.) Does that make sense? Is that just a very weird way of saying something?
You're saying something, I'm just not sure what it could be.
MS: I think comedians see themselves as people among people. So their fuck-uppedness is the same as it would be in the world. There are non-fucked up comedians and there are fucked-up comedians.
MIB: The self-serious comedian is rarely funny.
MS: That's the thing that most people don't realize. In real life, comedians aren't funny. They save it. They save it up.
MIB: Alex Rodriguez isn't going home every night and hitting home runs.
MS: That's exactly what I was going to say.
MIB: He's in his basement, hitting the stationary bike.
MS: It's like saying, does Stephen King go home every day and write? No, of course not.
MIB: Except he does. That's the thing. He writes from home.
MS: O.K., that was a bad example.
MIB: But the point is very good.
MS: The point was good, yeah.
MIB: But it was a terrible, terrible example.
You're both former cast members of The State, and it seems like everybody from that show continues to work together in some variation, from Reno 911 to Stella. Why is that? Is it like drunk-dialing an ex-girlfriend? You know the sex is going to be, if not good, at least predictable?
MIB: No, because unlike with old girlfriends, we never really broke up. It's more like a booty call that never ends.
MS: Or a polygamist's marriage. You just go knock on the door of one of your ten wives. You can pick a different door every night.
You've done quite a few shows for Comedy Central. Is that out of obligation or necessity?
MIB: Neither. It's a fun place to work.
MS: I see us as Italian Renaissance painters and Comedy Central is the Medici Family. They give us money and we paint.
MIB: They're our patrons. Our patroni.
And you feel like they understand your comedy sensibilities more than any other TV network?
MIB: No, they're the only ones who will hire us.
MS: That's why the only family of patrons you've ever heard of is the Medici Family.
MIB: Listen, if the CW would have us, we'd jump ship in a heartbeat. There's no place I'd rather be than at Comedy Central. But if another network calls, that's where I'll go.
Promotional blurbs for Michael and Michael Have Issues always mention that the show deals with "hot-button topics." What does that mean exactly? Are you guys making jokes about stem-cell research and gay marriage?
MIB: There's literally a counsel of hot buttons. Not the kind you push, the kind you find on clothes. That's what we're talking about.
So what is your opinion of stem-cell research and gay marriage?
MIB: As they relate to each other?
Or separately. Your choice.
MIB: I'm definitely not of the opinion that you can use stem cells to cure homosexuality. It's not a disease, no matter what you think. They were born that way and they deserve our respect, and I don't like the implication otherwise.
You have so successfully turned this interview on me. Well done.
MIB: I just don't understand why you would make that kind of reprehensible remark.
I apologize.
MS: I think gay people deserve all the same rights as everybody else, it's just that marriage is specifically for a man and a woman.
That's a bold statement for a Comedy Central star to make.
(They both burst into laughter.)
MIB: That's going to be a tough one to sell in print.
MS: Maybe in parenthesis you could say, "I think he's joking." Cause I still haven't said for sure whether I meant what I said.
MIB: That's true. He was willing to take it on faith that you support gay marriage. He's bringing his own liberal homosexual agenda to the interview.
I do write for Vanity Fair.
MIB: Well (under his breath) the website.
MIB: Maybe you need to be more obvious about your liberal homosexual agenda. That's why you write for the dot.com and not the magazine.
So you're saying if I was just a little gayer and more obviously liberal, I could be writing profiles of Johnny Depp and the Kennedys?
MS: Instead of asking Michael Showalter and Michael Ian Black whether they support the gays.
And your position again is ?
MS: I feel like marriage is a sacred institution that should only be between a man and a woman. If a gay couple wants to be married, why can't they just be satisfied with a civil union? Why do they have to get "married"?
Let's talk about something a little less "hot button." Michael Showalter, your love of cats is legendary.
MS: Thank you.
You've made videos about them and your fans bring them to your standup shows. Will there be cats in Michael and Michael Have Issues?
MS: No, but there is frequent mention of my love of cats. I don't believe we ever see a cat on the show. Cats aren't cooperative in the same way that other animals are. You can train a dog to act, but you can't train a cat in the same way.
You say that with the confidence of somebody who has tried.
MS: No, because it can't be done. Tell me a famous cat actor and I'll tell you ten famous dog actors.
I can't do it.
MS: And I can name ten famous dog actors. Rin Tin Tin, Benji, Lassie, Toto, Old Yeller. That's just off the top of my head!
Do you enjoy cats because they're so unpredictable?
MS: Yeah. I don't want to bore Michael, so I'm not going to give a long answer to the question.
MIB: You already did.
MS: No I didn't! I haven't given any answer.
MIB: Oh, I'm sorry. I stopped paying attention.
MS: Cats are unpredictable because they're wild and domestic at the same time. Watching a cat's behavior is like a small window into the wild.
Michael Black, you got into a feud with David Sedaris to promote your book. Who are you planning to start a pseudo-feud with to promote Michael and Michael Have Issues?
MIB: The whole show is a feud with Michael Showalter. Except unlike the case with Mr. Sedaris, Michael Showalter knows who I am. And he has heard of the feud.
But isn't promoting the show with a feud on your show kinda defeating the purpose? If people are watching, they're already watching.
MIB: Hopefully the feud will be so entertaining that it promotes itself with word of mouth. And heavy marketing from the network.
And if that doesn't work, you can start a Twitter feud like you did with LeVar Burton.
MIB: I may do that. But again, it will be with Michael Showalter.
MS: He wins. I can tell you right now, he wins. You could take away half a million of his Twitter followers and he'd still have more followers than me.
MIB: That's not fair! That's not fair! It would be a lot more!
MS: That's what I said.
MIB: I thought you just said more.
MS: Oh, I see what you're saying.
MIB: I just want to clarify that it'd be a lot more.
MS: There are only so many followers I can get when the only thing I do on Twitter is post pictures of the Brooklyn Bridge. There's just a limit on how many people want to see that.

Russia elections won't pave the way for a Putin dictatorship
Anyone who thinks that Vladmir Putin's party United Russia Party will cruise to power in this weekend's parliamentary elections – and that this is the first step in his inevitable rise to dictatorship – had better think again.
New York
Russia will conduct important Parliamentary elections this weekend. Yes, elections – with all the dangers and opportunities that elections hold for incumbent parties, including Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's.
Anyone who thinks that Mr. Putin's United Russia Party will cruise to power as the first step in his inevitable rise to dictatorship (after a projected easy victory in the 2012 presidential elections) had better think again. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Putin's party and his new Popular Front initiative (a coalition of his ruling political party, trade groups, and nongovernmental organizations) have sizable support. But his United Russia party does not have a majority and certainly not the constitutional majority of two-thirds of the State Duma, according to public opinion surveys.
Two opposition parties taken together – the Communists and Liberal Democrats – are favored by nearly a quarter of the electorate, and there are other parties vying for voters, too.
Putin will have to forge a coalition government among disparate factions to have any chance of governing effectively if he retakes the presidency next March after a separate election. That won't be easy, and the messy process is sure to disprove the Myth of Putin – that the former and likely future president plans to reconstitute the Soviet Union as his own, personal plaything.
