The Future of Facebook Graph Search (and Google)
Posted on January 20th 2013
If you do not think Facebook Graph Search is a big deal, you have not been paying attention to the way data, particularly social data, is changing the world. And if you believe Facebook's move is a threat to Google, you may have no idea how true that is, not in terms of today's search advertising market but Google's strategy for the future.
Facebook's big play here is not merely that it may have a search engine that competes with Google's. Yes, this innovation could shake up the search market and allow Facebook to make a bigger dent in Google's revenue in the online and mobile ad space. That may be good news for Facebook investors who, even if Facebook announces great Q4 results in two weeks, will still be holding Facebook stock at a price-earnings ratio that is somewhere between five and fifteen times higher than mature companies such as Google, Apple and eBay.
Instead of thinking about search in the way we do it today--reactive, slow, relatively difficult and often frustrating--flip search on its head. Think of your device knowing you well enough to furnish you with the information you would want when you want it without asking. This is a vision of "serendipitous search" that Google has been hinting at for years.
Now add the Facebook social layer--all the data it knows about you, your friends and strangers. Today, you may pull out your phone and spend five minutes with a Yelp app to find a clothes store; tomorrow your device could proactively let you know you are walking past one of your friends' favorite boutiques. And who do you trust more--strangers who may be compensated for posting trash reviews or your close friends?
Facebook Graph Search as a reactive feature is interesting but turned into a proactive feature, it can change our world. Imagine walking into a bar and knowing a friend is next door. Or entering a salon and finding out your friend loves a particular stylist. Or visiting a Greek restaurant and discovering your Greek friends love a different place around the corner. Or going to a car dealership and being told your friends were left feeling ripped off at this establishment but loved their experience at the dealership up the street. Want to extend your circle of friends? Change a setting and your device can alert you that a friend of a friend is nearby. Playing a tough golf course? One of your friends shared a tip for beating the ninth hole and posted his video birdying the hole! Listening to a song? A bunch of your friends who loved this tune also recommend a band that is new to you! Having a problem with PowerPoint? Searching for the answer is so last year when your device can recognize you are having a problem and inform you not only that your coworker is a PowerPoint guru but that she is online and available now through Facebook chat!
That is the promise of the "social layer," not simply that it populates our news feeds with inspirational Tumblr images but that it becomes data that makes our lives richer, easier and more social. If the term "social layer" rings a bell, it is because that is the phrase Google and others have been using to describe the search giant's own social strategy. And here we see how Facebook's hegemony in social data really brings it into competition with Google--not because a Facebook search engine may be competitive with Google's search engine, but because the company that has access to and uses our and our friends' data and turns it into something that enriches our lives wins and wins big.
And if that is not a sufficient picture of how Facebook and Google are on a collision course, let's take this one step further. In all of those examples I provided of how proactive or serendipitous data might change our lives, think of how this data arrives to you. Today, your phone buzzes or chirps and you need to stop what you are doing, yank out your device, unlock it and look at the screen. If you're driving, this risks lives. If you're walking--look out for that tree! On a first date? Well, that device better stay in your pocket if you want a second date.
Annoying, right? Okay, then put on a pair of Google Glasses--a new way to present information to you without demanding you drop everything, use your hands and shift your field if vision and entire attention. Suddenly the beauty of proactive, real-time information becomes even more evident. No more "third screens" that demand attention; now your real and virtual worlds can become merged seamlessly. Of course, this depends on how well the software and hardware work together and know what information you find useful and what you do not; still, you can begin to see how today's sleek smartphones could look as outdated as a StarTAC flip phone within five years.
Will Facebook be content to let Google own the wearable tech market and allow its hardware to be the conduit for Facebook's features and value proposition? That seems unlikely, and perhaps this is why those rumors of a Facebook phone have never been realized--the brass ring is not that Facebook becomes yet another player in a field crowded with iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows and soon Tizen and Firefox OS. Instead, I wonder if Facebook recognizes that its future in furnishing real-time social data depends on finding a way to make that data seamless to users in a way that even today's best smartphones cannot accommodate.
There has been a lot of press in the last two days about what Facebook Graph Search means to Facebook and Google, but I wonder if we are witnessing not another battle for today's eyeballs and ad dollars but the first strategic moves into who owns the way humans merge their virtual and physical worlds in the future.
Hi Augie, I love this "Facebook Graph Search as a reactive feature is interesting but turned into a proactive feature". You are 100% correct.
Great insight and perspective of Facebook Graph! I look forward to seeing how it impacts marketing and users overall experiences.
As you say - I think this is an important move in terms of who owns the way humans merge their physical and virtual worlds - but I don't see this as a battle between Facebook and Google - I see it as a battle between humans and Googlebook. http://socialmediatoday.com/richardstacy/1175396/facebook-graph-search-why-could-be-so-important-future-big-data
There is also another issue here with this whole idea of recommendation by friends (i.e the social layar). This is that you will never have enough friends to make this layer very useful. Your friends can't visit all the restaurants you may want to visit - but plenty of other people can, albeit you won't know them. What social does very well is allow you to trust strangers - it is this sort of social layer that is important. http://richardstacy.com/2012/08/07/people-trust-strangers-more-than-they-trust-friends/. The social layar only becomes useful when it gets pushed out way beyond your friends.
Here is another link to the piece http://richardstacy.com/2013/01/21/facebook-graph-search-why-this-could-be-so-important-to-the-future-of-big-data/
Re trust, I guess the issue is the subject. If I want an opinion on an area where I don't have a friend with relevant experience, then I need to turn to people I don't know, and want a process that will allow me to trust that person. For example, I am looking for a new chainsaw. I don't have any friends who know much about chainsaws - I may trust them as people, but I don't trust their opinions on chainsaws. Think also Wikipedia. I trust Wikipedia, in-so-far as I trust Wikipedia's process - but I don't know the people behind the articles. So yes - we will always trust friends more than strangers, but we don't have enough friends to allow this to be useful - we have to access the knowledge of strangers. And the great, transformative, thing about social media is that it allows us to do this.

I had a first year Columbus plant that was a monster. It had tons of big, heavily loaded hops. I got a couple of pounds of dried flowers off her! This year she has dozens of shoots already and I have been asked for a cutting. Don't want to harm my baby, so looking for advice from someone who is experienced at doing this before I take the knife to her. TIA!!
If it was grown from a rhizome it most likely spent all of it's energy last year making roots and some shoots for you and most likely didn't put any energy into making rhizomes. They usually begin forming after the crown is established so you probably don't have any to cut. The easiest way to propagate is to take one of the shoots that's already popped up and gently bend it over and cover it with soil. Sometimes you get lucky and find one that's oriented horizontally which are much easier to get under the soil. After a few days or so, the growing tip will begin to pop out of the soil and you'll want to cover it up again. You can do this for as long as you wish but usually after a few weeks it should have developed a bunch of roots all along the stem starting from the crown outward. All you have to do now is to cut it away from the mother plant and donate to your friend. What you've basically done is create a rhizome. If you were to have left that portion covered with soil over the growing season it would have turned 'woody' and that growing tip would have grown you some hops. Easy as pie!

almost past season but if you expose the crown you will see woody roots and newer roots with buds and rootlets. You'll want the buds and rootlets from the rhizome for reproduction. after you cut them wrap them in a moist towel until they get back in the ground.
....just add water.....
Thanks all for the suggestions. Ended up pulling back a few bines until I got to the rootlets, cut them below where they are mainly white in color. Stuffed them into really good compost material and watered heavily. Left them on the porch for my buddy to pick up and he says all went well and they are doing fine. Been out of town for about 6 weeks so I will have to stop over and see how they are doing soon. BTW, this year's crop is going gang busters! I have half dollar sized buds all over the place and just tons of them. We have had a lot of rain and good sun this month and the plants are going crazy.

Family of cyclist killed in Bethnal Green after being hit by lorry in June call for witnesses
More evidence needed as they pursue compensation claim to help fund care for victim's two-year-old daughter
Previous News
Next News
The partner of a cyclist killed in London earlier this year is appealing for witnesses to come forward as she pursues a claim for compensation against the operators of the lorry involved to help pay for the care of their infant daughter.
Peter McGreal, aged 44, died four days after he was hit by the lorry in Bethnal Green Rode at 8.30am on June 21 as he rode from his home in Walthamstow to his work as a graphic designer at London Metropolitan University's Aldgate campus, where he was also a trade union representative.
His death left his partner, Amanda Baker, alone to care for their two-year-old daughter, reports the London Evening Standard.
The fatal collision took place at the junction of Hackney Road and Pritchard's Road. The driver failed to stop but was subsequently traced by police and arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driver. He was released on bail and is due to return to a police station in East London next month.
Michelle Sutton of Fentons Solicitors LLP, which is acting for Mr McGreal's family, said that they still did not have a complete understanding of how the incident had unfolded.
"If we are to secure the future care of the couple's daughter, we urgently need witnesses to come forward with their description of what happened," she explained.
"Peter's family are still suffering the aftermath of losing their loved one. We are hoping people will come forward and help us to secure the help they need right now and also in the future."
Anyone who has information regarding the incident is asked to contact Michelle Sutton at Fentons Solicitors LLP on 0161 238 6408 or via email.
If we were like all bar four EU countries in having a strict liability law for motor claims and insurance, there woudl be no need to appeal for witnesses, no need to prove the motorists' negligence, no need to spend years and oceans of emotional pain fighting for justice.
It would add £s to a typical annual premium and might perhaps make drivers a little more careful - a not unfair expectation of anyone who handles a "weapon" as lethal as 1.5 tonnes of fast-moving steel.

EU countries don't have 'strict liability', they have 'presumed liability', the burden of proof falls on the motorist to show that the cyclist was at fault/contributed to the accident.
Even so it only applies to insurance claims, so there would still be a need to "appeal for witnesses, a need to prove the motorists' negligence, a need to spend years and oceans of emotional pain fighting for justice" to ensure that the driver was punished for any criminal behaviour.
With regards to the incident above, how can you not be guilty of careless driving if run over & kill someone and don't stop? It's hardly the action of a careful driver.

I cycle through this junction every day. It is deceptively dangerous. I always felt something bad would happen at it and when I saw the white bicycle on the railings it confirmed my fears. The problem started a couple of years ago when the hotel went up. At this point the zebra crossing was replaced by a pelican crossing. Now instead of the traffic slowing down and being wary of potential pedestrians the cars power through at 30mph speeding up as the amber shows. Trying to get onto the main Hackney road from Pritchard's road or Temple street has since become very difficult, with most cars and cyclists having to edge out and make a dash for it. I wouldn't be surprised if this accident came about by a large vehicle trying to avoid a car turning off hackney road at this point and hitting the cyclist as they were trying to get onto the road. The planners should revert to a zebra crossing or make a traffic lit box junction at this point. As it stands there will be more deaths and accidents at this spot and I hope one of them isn't me.

Isoleucine (abbreviated as Ile or I)[1] is an α-amino acid with the chemical formula HO2CCH(NH2)CH(CH3)CH2CH3. It is an essential amino acid, which means that humans cannot synthesize it, so it must be ingested. Its codons are AUU, AUC and AUA.
With a hydrocarbon side chain, isoleucine is classified as a hydrophobic amino acid. Together with threonine, isoleucine is one of two common amino acids that have a chiral side chain. Four stereoisomers of isoleucine are possible, including two possible diastereomers of L-isoleucine. However, isoleucine present in nature exists in one enantiomeric form, (2S,3S)-2-amino-3-methylpentanoic acid.
As an essential nutrient, it is not synthesized in the body, hence it must be ingested, usually as a component of proteins. In plants and microorganisms, it is synthesized via several steps, starting from pyruvic acid and alpha-ketoglutarate. Enzymes involved in this biosynthesis include:[2]
- Acetolactate synthase (also known as acetohydroxy acid synthase)
- Acetohydroxy acid isomeroreductase
- Dihydroxyacid dehydratase
- Valine aminotransferase
Isoleucine is both a glucogenic and a ketogenic amino acid. After transamination with alpha-ketoglutarate the carbon skeleton can be converted into either Succinyl CoA, and fed into the TCA cycle for oxidation or converted into oxaloacetate for gluconeogenesis (hence glucogenic). It can also be converted into Acetyl CoA and fed into the TCA cycle by condensing with oxaloacetate to form citrate. In mammals Acetyl CoA cannot be converted back to carbohydrate but can be used in the synthesis of ketone bodies or fatty acids, hence ketogenic.
Biotin, sometimes referred to as Vitamin B7 or Vitamin H, is an absolute requirement for the full catabolism of isoleucine (as well as leucine). Without adequate biotin, the human body will be unable to fully break down isoleucine and leucine molecules.[3] This can lead to numerous physiological issues (related to muscle maintenance and protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and fatty acid metabolism) as well as cognitive issues resulting from general metabolic pathway failure and the irritating effects of hydroxyisovalerate, a byproduct of incomplete isoleucine catabolism. Isovaleric acidemia is an example of a disorder caused by incomplete catabolism of leucine.[citation needed]
Nutritional Sources[edit]
Even though this amino acid is not produced in animals, it is stored in high quantities. Foods that have high amounts of isoleucine include eggs, soy protein, seaweed, turkey, chicken, lamb, cheese, and fish.[4]

My husband and I are having a huge problem with box elder bugs. They have been in our house all winter and we are anticipating a worse than usual outdoor crop of them.I think we are going to break down and use Tempo this year on the outside of the house(already used soapy water and box elder be-gone). Has anyone used it? Any effects on plants? Would love some advice.... they are really bad. |

I have used Bugg Slayer and it works great. Unlike soap, it doesn't work on contact, but it does have lasting residual effect. A few years back, at a different house, we had them terribly. They live near female box elder trees and live on the seeds (I think). When we had trouble, I called an exterminator and they were kind enough to educate me on how these bugs live. In MN, our summers allow them to have about 3 life cycles. First the adults come out of their warm winter hiding spots (usually our attics), glue their butts together, lay eggs (clusters of red dots, no bigger than a grain of salt). The eggs hatch and the wingless- nymphs run around and feed. The key is killing the nymphs before they develop wings. If you're diligent with Bugg Slayer and soap, you can make a substantial dent in the population and greatly reduce your winter squatters. I keep a spray bottle at the ready on the front porch and back deck so that I can spray any cluster of these annoyances I find! It really helps to drench their "sunning spots" with Bugg Slayer since it does have lasting residual effects. In my yard, those sunning spots are on the East side of my house (in the morning) and the west side of my garden as the sun comes over the top! |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday, March 29, 2011
COLUMBUS – Secretary of State Jon Husted today announced that Ohio has received funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through the Help America Vote Act, to provide grants for the development of programs designed to improve the accessibility to, and participation in, the election process for individuals with disabilities.
"There are many good organizations working every day to serve Ohioans with disabilities," Husted said. "I look forward to getting their ideas and working with them to ensure Ohioans with disabilities can more easily participate fully in our elections process."
The Secretary of State's office, which will administer and oversee the grant, is currently seeking proposals for the development of voter education programs that address the specific needs of Ohioans with disabilities and encourage the participation of those individuals in the election process. Proposals for organizations seeking to assist county boards of elections in increasing the physical accessibility of voting will also be considered. Eligible proposals should directly benefit a full range of disabilities, such as individuals who are hard of hearing or deaf, visually impaired or blind, have a full range of mobility impairments, emotional impairments, cognitive impairments and intellectual impairments. Selected grant proposals could serve all disability populations, or a specific disability, on a statewide basis, or specific geographical area of the state.
Proposals selected to receive funding will be awarded grants in the amounts of $20,000 or $10,000. Grant applications must be non-partisan in their effort to educate people with disabilities about voting and may be submitted by agencies, organizations, non-profits or individuals. The deadline for submitting grant applications is 5:00pm on May 2, 2011.
Completed grant proposals should be returned to Brett Harbage with the Secretary of State's office either by email at firstname.lastname@example.com, by fax at (614) 485-7070, or by mail at 180 East Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215.
Additional information regarding the grant application is available at http://www.sos.state.oh.us/sos/upload/news/20110329.pdf.

Parking Garage Manager Arraigned on Fraud and Larceny Charges
A municipal parking lot manager was arraigned in Lawrence District Court today for allegedly stealing money from the garage and performing campaign-related tasks for Mayor William Lantiqua while at his city job following his arrest by Massachusetts State Police detectives assigned to the Essex District Attorney's Office, FBI agents and Lawrence police officers.
Justo Garcia, 60, of 0 B Pleasant Terrace in Lawrence, pleaded not guilty in Lawrence District Court to Larceny (MGL Chapter 266, Section 30), Fraudulent Submission of Materials to a Municipality (MGL Chapter 266 Section, 67A), Unlawful Receipt of Substantial Value by a Municipal Employee (MGL Chapter 268A, Section 23 (b)(2)) and Presenting a Fraudulent Claim by a Municipal Employee (MGL Chapter 268A, Section 23(b)(4)).
"It is particularly disturbing in a city facing serious financial challenges that a municipal employee brazenly steals money from the city coffers," District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett said. "These acts are an affront to honest government and to hard working, taxpayers who have a right to expect more from municipal employees. My office will continue to work to identify and prosecute criminal acts which deprive the taxpayers of funds that should be used to provide city services."
Judge Gaffney released him on the condition that he surrender his passport within 24 hours, check in with district court probation once a week and provide any and all names that he is known by or uses to identify himself to probation.
Essex Assistant District Attorney Michael Patten represented the Commonwealth.
The arrest is a result of an ongoing investigation, which included enhanced surveillance techniques, by Essex District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett's Office, with assistance from the Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the District Attorney's Office, FBI, Lawrence Police Department, the Attorney General's Office and the Office of the Inspector General.
Mr. Garcia is presumed innocent until proven guilty is scheduled to appear in court again on July 24, 2013 for a Pre-Trial Hearing.

The future is now
Got a pair of silver and of black; def returning silver. Makes me look like I stepped out of a time machine. The black are good though, they look expensive. The frames are very thin and delicate, despite being steel. Ridiculously clear lenses - plus a great shape for a wide, oval skull. The price could have been $110 or so.

In a move unprecedented in the history of property sector in the region, ETA will rope into the project as partners some of the most respected international brands in a variety of fields to give it a special touch of efficacy, exclusivity and credibility, including JW Marriott and IMG Academies,
Tony Ashai, the celebrated Beverley Hills designer, will design Dubai Lifestyle City in the famed Tuscany style of architecture, reminiscent of the renaissance. The entire enclave, including homes, hotels and other facilities, will be integrated across the spectrum with a digital datacenter to manage all communications systems – telephone, cable, satellite TV, audio and security – and this will make every unit a fully self-sufficient high speed network.
An excited Arif Buhary Rahman, Managing Director Dubai Lifestyle City, said that the project symbolized the full potential of Dubai as the world's top destination for the future. "Dubai Lifestyle City is a creative experiment with the endless possibilities that Dubai offers. Once completed, we are confident that Dubai Lifestyle City will become a historic benchmark, offering an enclave of near-perfection and a lifestyle that combines all the best in the world into an integrated experience," explained Rahman, adding that he was grateful to the varied partners for associating with this exclusive project
On his part, Mohammed Al Habbai, CEO of Dubailand, stated that Dubai Lifestyle City, truly reflected the standards that Dubailand aspired for. "We are delighted to assert that Dubai Lifestyle City will not only be the first-class lifestyle complex that it will indeed become, but also one of the major attractions that pull people from all over the world in the direction of Dubailand. "Dubailand is all about themed clusters and I am happy to note that Dubai Lifestyle City has lived up to our expectations on that count. I would like to express my deep sense of admiration for the futuristic vision that underlines a project of this scale, which more than complements the other big ideas being actualized in Dubailand" he concluded.
Dubai Lifestyle City will cover a land area of over four million square feet and aims at the creation of a self-sufficient lifestyle community surrounded by fine hotels, spas, sports academies and other amenities, digitally connected to each other. It will have 68 Tuscan-themed villas and 120 villettes, all designed in a way that replicates every single detail of Tuscany architecture, with its earthiness going well with the desert surroundings. Dubai Lifestyle City encompasses nearly everything in terms of luxuries, digital facilities, sports training and recreational opportunities, word-class hotels, fashion, art, theatre and shopping. A shopping mall that sprawls over 100,000 square feet will cater to the shopping requirements of the residents, making available all the finest brands under one roof.

Letter to the Editor: Vote according to the Bible
Norma Hill, Wichita Falls
I am a Christian, as many of you are. My voting will be strongly influenced by my understanding of God and Scripture. I am urged by many dear, good people to vote for a particular candidate and party because they seem to uphold Christian values on moral issues, particularly abortion and homosexuality.
I would like to remind readers that there are other moral issues to be considered, issues that, according to Scripture, are of great concern to God. In fact, these other issues get more press in Scripture than the explicitly sexual ones.
1. The Old Testament prophets thundered out against the nation's leaders who did not take care of the vulnerable (the poor, the helpless, the alien in the land) a high priority, but instead focused their attention on increasing the wealth and power of the wealthy and powerful.
2. Jesus' teachings strongly favor peacemaking, even love for your enemy over aggressive, arrogant talk and behavior.
3. Jesus' teachings favored saying straightforwardly what you mean, over "waffling" from one position to another depending on what it will do for you politically.
4. A budget is a moral document, whether it is mine or the state's or the national government's. What it includes or excludes says volumes about the values of the budget-maker.
I hope that Christians will consider all the issues in this election season, not just the "hot-button" ones. Let us be thankful for those who are willing to lead this nation, and whoever the "winners" are, let us do all we can to help them govern effectively.

If you updated your Verizon Galaxy S4 to the latest over-the-air build, or bought one after it was already installed, you might already be aware that it's been especially resistant to root attempts. Savvy power users have stayed well away from the updated VRUAME7 firmware, which makes rolling back to an earlier build impossible. But as is so often the case, two enterprising XDA-Developers posters have solved at least some of the problems, and released a new rooting method for the latest OTA.
For many power users, 16GB just doesn't cut it any more, especially when the world's leading smartphone manufacturer insists upon using a third of that for its customized Android build. Combine that with a still-outrageous premium for those few models that of phones that include extra storage, and you've got a recipe for frustration. But the Galaxy S4 situation just got a little less rage-inducing, at least if you're a prospective Verizon customer: both Amazon Wireless and WireFly have dropped the 32GB version of the Galaxy S4 to $199.99 on-contract.
If you're on The Now Network and looking for a new phone, you'd be hard-pressed to find one better than the Galaxy S4 (with one exception, depending on your personal preference). And in keeping with their tradition of rock-bottom prices at surprisingly fast intervals, Amazon Wireless is now offering the 16GB model for just $99.99 on-contract, to both new customers and existing subscribers adding a line.
Activation is free for new Sprint customers, as is two-day shipping (even without an Amazon Prime account).
Though there's a definite streak among power users to prefer Google's "pure" Android on their phones, some of the manufacturer skins from HTC and Samsung have charming features as well. Modder and ROM developer Paul O'Brien, better known as MoDaCo, has been testing a solution to give you the best of both worlds. MoDaCo.SWITCH is a dual-boot solution for power users that lets two ROMs (manufacturer stock and AOSP, for example) which share user data, allowing a seamless switch between interfaces.
As previously leaked, Verizon has a new mahogany hue for its Samsung Galaxy S4, and it's also showing up on Best Buy's site. The 16GB brown version is now available online only, at the same $199 on-contract and $649 off-contract prices as the black and white versions. But wait, those preview shots on the Verizon home page look a little... off.
Compare the brown in the screenshot above to the much more subtle brown in the Evleaks press shot, to say nothing of the fact that only the front of the device is actually brown.
Love 'em or hate 'em, you've got to admit that Samsung has made a habit out of offering its flagship devices in as many hues as they possibly can. Leakster extraordinaire EVleaks posted a press shot of a new Galaxy S4 last night, sporting an Autumn Brown color and Verizon branding. There's no indication of when it will show up on store shelves.
The leak says the phone is brown, but that's only half true: the back of the phone looks like the same diamond-pattern black as the older Galaxy S4, while the "brushed" pattern on the front bezel and home button gets a chocolate-colored makeover.
Some devices get all the ROMs. Of course, for the Google Play Edition of the Galaxy S4, that's kind of the point. Late last month an early version of Android 4.3 was leaked for the phone right around the time of its Play Store debut, and now an even newer build labeled "JWR66V" has popped up. According to XDA Developers forum poster Jahon, it was build on July the 11th, and now it's been re-packaged into a ROM file flashable in the custom recovery of your choice.
Late last month, Samsung announced an LTE-A-powered Galaxy S4 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor for Korea's SK Telecom network. The benchmarks – along with the speedtests – were mind-boggling, but it was extremely unclear whether the rest of the world would ever get a taste of everything this new GS4 has to offer. Thanks to a new leak over at AllAboutSamsung.de (and confirmed by SamMobile's sources), we now have strong reason to think that an international version, model number i9506, is on its way.
So you know about that big scary update for Verizon's Galaxy S 4 that blocks root, patches the bootloader, and haunts your children's dreams. The question is, though, what else does it do? Verizon finally spilled the beans (someone grab a mop and clean this mess up, please), and it's chock-full of stuff. Lots and lots of stuff.
Samsung announced this spring that security app LoJack would soon be built into the Galaxy S4. The necessary firmware arrived on most North American variants of the S4 in recent weeks, and now the service is live to take advantage of it. LoJack can be activated on your Galaxy S4 today for $29.99 per year. In return for your money you get phone tracking, remote wipe, and recovery assistance.
The LoJack app is built into the firmware of the device, making it persistent through factory resets (but probably not ROM flashes).

We definitely love superfoods here at Nutiva. We are proud of our amazingly nutritious and certified-organic products and consider ourselves superfood super heroes. But did you know that you are probably a superfood super hero and you didn't even know it? While the benefits of chia seeds & hemp seeds are impressive, you may be surprised to know that you probably already have superfoods in your refrigerator. In our series about easy to find superfoods, we'll cover some nutritious foods that you can incorporate into your home easily. You may already have some! Today we feature a vegetable that the good ol' cartoon character Popeye made popular: spinach.
Spinach has been in the public eye for quite some time. From the classic creamed spinach craze during holidays, to Popeye's use of it as the power fuel that helped him grow strong muscles, spinach has had its share of time in the limelight. Unfortunately, spinach can sometimes get something of a bad rap for being a slimy, not-so-appetizing canned veggie. Let's clear that up, shall we?
Spinach is loaded with vitamin A, and just like most greens will give you a good dose of vitamin K and C as well. You can also expect to get some vitamin B2 & B6 and even some minerals. Throw in some fiber, iron & nitrates and you're looking at an easy to find superfood. People have been singing its praises for some time now as a great addition to your diet for a number of reasons.
Spinach as a bridge to other greens
Spinach is also a wonderful green because the taste is relatively mild and can be something of a bridge to eating greens with a powerful taste like chard. If your palette is only used to iceberg and romaine lettuce and jumping to dandelion greens and kale is a scary idea to you, start with some spinach. Over time you will develop the ability to eat these stronger flavored greens and even grow to crave their unique flavors. Darker greens are loaded with a lot more nutrients than iceberg or romaine lettuce, and your body will thank you for adding them into your diet.
How to use spinach
This accessible veggie is great raw in your salads. Think about adding strawberries, hemp seeds, walnuts and some vinaigrette for a bright tasting salad that even the pickiest eater would love. Throw some spinach in your next scramble and include it in your sautéed veggies. There are lots of incredible recipes at the Nutiva Kitchen that include spinach, like Spinach & Cheese Pasta and Goody Goody Green Smoothie. Did you say spinach in a smoothie? Yep, and you won't even notice it's there.
If you already use spinach, feel empowered knowing that you are providing a great superfood for you and your loved ones. If you have been hesitant to try it, now's the time!
We'd love to hear how you like to use spinach. Are you surprised to learn that it's considered a superfood? Let us know in the comments section below.

Exdeadman, I'm curious because I'll readily admit I haven't been lurking on these forums for very long, was Battle Bunny Riven something that some fanbase was asking for? I understand the skin got some wannabe feminists' panties twisted (when really it's one of the least objectified skins), though I would have thought that since it was also released very early spring and somewhat Easter-ish in theme that it wasn't catering to a specific fanbase. Kionashi, I don't particularly hate bronies in the sense of raging and frothing "that's so gay!". It's more of a disdain for such a far-reaching desire of individuals who should be acting like young men to stay rooted in silly childish fancy. It is an unhealthy degree of escapism. Furthermore, I'd rather not see Riot cave to any fanbase that is clamoring for a specific skin treatment. I don't want to see glitter Vlad, burning Ashe, PandAsian Voli, etc...

..This thread contains the most amount of cancer that I have seen on this entire board, ever. I don't understand why adult to middle-aged men find enough appeal in this sub-par children's show that they not only watch it religiously, but make it a part of their lifestyle, personality, and go as far to make "brony support groups" and meetings.. The whole thing is just damn disturbing, and it fills me with an extreme sadness and rage to know that I am a part of this generation where this **** is relatively mainstream. Thank you for giving me cancer.

I like memes and televison shows out of games I play. While I don't give two ****s for MLP, it doesn't belong here. A lot of skins that are already in the game were a bit questionable (such as Red Baron Corki). While joke and fun skins might be acceptable seasonally (such as the Amumu skin for Christmas) that's about as far as it should go.

Sounds like an awesome idea for a hecarim skin. Also pool party ziggs and astronaut i believe were fan creation skins as well.
apart from the fact that its gay killing folks with such a fruity looking hero would be a blast

£20 is expensive but if it has an API tasker can integrate with it's not too bad especially compared to hue prices.
Wireless charging standards war could be over 'as soon as 2015'
The Nexus 5 has magnets around the coil to aid correct positioning - you can easily use these to hold the phone to even a vertical surface.
I have a phone mount - sadly without the Qi charger - that you just slap the phone on without having to fit it into a cradle or between arms and it is so much more convenient add in wireless charging and it would be perfect.
Cloud buyers: Why it makes sense to think local
The article is pretty much spot on in how I see the utility of the cloud. It works very well for new applications that have been designed for it - spin up smallest possible instance for new web service X and now you've got a much cheaper platform than you could build yourself.
Data costs are a red herring - if they are growing in the cloud they would be growing locally too. Whether the cost is too much depends on how much you want to store and what you have infrastructure wise. Amazon S3 is $85 per TB per month. Depending on your scale thats either a lot more than you pay locally or not a bad deal. Got no infrastructure then you have to buy a server, maintain it and power it. If you already have a server then another couple of disks for your RAID array is much cheaper but that might not suit your workload.
Google gives Maps a lick of paint, smears it over screens worldwide
Re: Freetards
Paying in bandwidth and computing power? You are aware that you "pay" this for any internet based mapping solution whether it is "free" at the point of use or not? I can't imagine that even if I just used google maps all day every day that the cost of bandwidth for adds would ever add up to a measurable amount.
I'm not disputing that the cost for almost all of googles services is your information and eyeballs infront of adds just that in any way that Google adds which aren't animated flash horrors add in any appreciable way to the cost of your bandwidth.

Re: I still think

Re: I still think
I would agree with some of that - the martian one that is just a fancy notification light (albeit with vibration too) seems a bit pointless.
On the other hand I use my pebble all the time and find it very handy. Most email I find is junk or circulars so the ability to glance at my wrist and dismiss unwanted messages is great. On top of that it works as a sleep monitor (wakes you up at the right point in your sleep cycle), bike speedometer and running monitor (how fast/far you have gone).
I'll be the first to admit I could live without my pebble but you could say that about a lot of tech and for me it fills a niche.
Android users running old OS versions? Not anymore, say latest stats
Re: So why didn't you buy an iPhone?
This is also confusing me. Do they not sell or somehow block unlocked handsets in Canada? Could you not buy the mentioned Moto G or a Nexus 5 or something? According to a Japanese friend they do that with iPhones in Japan - it's like the bad old days for would be fruity fondle phone buyers in the UK where you can only buy it from the telcos for very inflated prices and there are no native unlocked options.
Google will dodge EU MONSTER FINES by 'promoting' rival search services
Re: @Wilseus... Why?
"Depending on the manufacturing process. It could be cheaper to install windows than it is not to install it."
I'm not convinced about that (blank hard drive vs an imaged drive) but it certainly could be more expensive to install a free OS than windows and given the amount of shovelware that comes with most new PCs I imagine that the cost of Windows ends up pretty negligible.
Re: Why?
I agree though Microsoft have done far more harm with internet explorer than Google. We still have to optimise for crappy old IE versions and even those as recent as version 9 are woefully behind internet standards.
Google have an awful lot of power and influence but honestly I'd pick a Google monopoly over a Microsoft one any day. Google may want to harvest my data and shove ads down my throat but at least they provide me with very good services for a low low price in exchange.
Twitterers rally round #CensoredUK - to demand MORE PORN
Re: Still they got access to twitter
Well to be fair the BBC has a recent reputation for doing/allowing naughty things to be done to kids so maybe it was just a bit of foresight.
Our Vulture strokes Dell's ROBUST 15 INCHER: Inspiron 15 Core i7
Yes I have in fact they are dual core parts but specifically they are the ultra low voltage parts normally used in ultrabooks (as mentioned in the review). Have you looked on the Apple site where you'll see that the Macbook Pros use the much faster 37W parts hence better specced offerings.
I was looking at this laptop to replace my ageing 15" Core 2 Duo laptop which is basically the same size but fatter. Everything looks great, full hd res, backlit keyboard, suitable graphics chip, plenty of ram, upgradeable ram + hard disk I even forgave it the fact that it's 15" rather than the 13-14" I'd really like but then the processor.
WTF not even the better specced dual core offerings? Surely a chassis of this size can fit in something better after all the regular 13" Macs manage it. I think I'll pass until they upgrade the processor as I just can't see it lasting as well as my 5yr old current laptop.
Three offers free US roaming, confirms stealth 4G rollout
Steelie Neelie still not optional
"So remind us, what was the point of Neelie Kroes again?"
Three have always been the most competitive in coming up with things customers actually want. You could probably say they saw the writing on the wall as it looks like Steelie wants pan EU roaming at local costs but 3 should be applauded A) for getting in well ahead of the competition B) extending it out of the EU
Pebble smartwatch app guys! Put your mind at WRIST: New SDK + iOS 7 alerts
Speed of development
The key weakness for Pebble imho. These changes are great and needed but they should have been out already not "later this year". We still lack magnometer access and an app store so there can be easy installation and updates for apps. Crucially though I think they need to either make a few good apps to fill obvious niches like fitness tracking or pay someone to do it for them.
They got off to a reasonable start with Runkeeper and Freecaddy but they need more apps to drive demand.

Google tired of endless AGONY over alleged EU search biz abuse
All this fuss
The comparison to Microsoft seems a bit harsh. Its not as if it is particularly hard for anyone to switch to another search engine or maps provider. Heck even Android is open source and can and has been forked by competitors.
The reason they are successful is because their products are at the very least quite acceptable and often the best available. Where they aren't such as Android offline mapping its very easy to just install another app or on the desktop use something else.

Surface 2 and iPad Air: Prepare to meet YOUR DOOM under a 'Landfill Android' AVALANCHE
Re: MS will win
But what will they win? I can't see them winning the consumer side largely because the public have never warmed to their online services and stores the way they have with Apple and Google.
The risk to MS is that someone like Blackberry or any other over the top vendor can do the integration with MS infrastructure on Android and iOS. Its not like these products don't exist already.
As has been said before Office is their biggest draw - if I wanted a tablet for business use where I was dealing with a lot of Office documents Surface would be the only real option. For everything else its last in the lineup.

Doctors face tribunal over claims of plagiarism in iPhone app
There isn't anything wrong with copying with attribution an explanation.
There is a problem with copying without attribution or your whole work being copied with attribution and sold. The former is unethical which is frowned on in doctors, the second falls under copyright laws I believe and is probably less of interest to the GMC.

Google takes Chromebook upmarket with touchy-feely Pixel
I doubt this will be flying off the shelves. I really want that screen res on my next laptop but at £1000 for Chrome OS you're having a laugh. I'm writing this on a Samsung ARM chromebook and I love it - I can even dual boot into Ubuntu (goodness knows how the Reg reviewer found it hard to do). The thing about the Samsung CB is that its cheap, has no fans and a very respectable battery life. The Pixel has none of these and that screen doesn't make up for it.
Time has already run out for smart watches
In that regard I have a nice watch that I use when I wear my smart stuff - purely mens jewellery in that regard since when I wear it I probably don't want to pull my phone out to tell the time.
The pebble is my day-to-day watch, it looks good enough for that and will hopefully serve its purpose well.
Maybe they will be niche articles maybe not. The $10M+ that pebble have received in backing shows there is at least reasonable interest given that the device wasn't even out when they got that.
I've got to say that the increase in phone sizes probably adds to the reason for wanting these. They start to not fit all that well into your jeans pockets without creating unsightly bulges so I stick my phone in a less convenient jacket pocket or bag. I've ordered a pebble so I can glance at my watch to see if its yet another junk email/ PPI claim text or if its something I might want to pay attention to. Not to mention being able to change the music volume/track without having to pull my phone out perhaps when I'm cycling.

RIM shares jump as analyst decides it isn't as dead as he thought
Why not?
I'd certainly give RIM a better shot than MS. The playbook talks directly to Exchange so hopefully the new BB10 handsets will do with the Blackberry server stuff optional. If they have some guts they'd turn BBM into a skype competitor too they just need to cross platform it. No-one else seems willing to compete with them but RIM with a still large install base and relatively enthusiastic following could.
Why did Comet fail? Hint: It wasn't just the credit insurers
Really a surprise?
When you run a store with staff who know nothing selling overpriced goods?
We were replacing our fridge last year and looked at one with an inbuilt water dispenser and a big label on the front that says "pure filtered water" (or words to that effect) so we ask a chirpy store droid whether that includes limescale removal.
Cue a 5 minute trip to ask someone.
"No it doesn't just impurities"
"Oh like what?"
Cue an expression on her face that suggested we should know that our water is horribly impure and should always be drunk filtered.
"So do the filters need changing"
"Oh yes" she beamed "we have a subscription plan to sell you a years supply of filters so you don't need to worry about running out for £x" a horribly inflated price.
To top it all online they had the same fridge as a "special online only offer" with a slightly different product code for about £200 less. Are you surprised you're out of business when you treat customers like mugs?
Even US generals have realised BlackBerries are uncool
Re: Antitrust
Probably because Microsoft made the sensible decision to license Activesync widely and not lock out any competitors. RIM was free to become a licencee but didn't and required their own propriety solution instead. They didn't licence their solution and only came up with a free SMB server once the shift away from them was well underway.
If they had announced they were licencing BBM to other manufacturers and systems 12 months ago (think BBM to your facebook buddies) they might have had a viable business model going forward but the value of BBM and its social network is shrinking along with its userbase.
Scottish PhDs hoist kilt to reveal storage array killer
Limited use cases
Not a bad idea in some cases - I like the school use case as they are genuinely somewhere with potentially big storage needs and a lot of PCs. What happens though when you need a file after 5 and everyone has gone home and turned their PC off and the one thing you need isn't cached? How do you get that file do you have to turn on the whole schools PCs?
Hate the Windows 8 touch UI? Try Kinect-like finger shaking instead
A bit of gesture control would be a very nice feature - far more appealing than touch for desktops and some laptops. Most of the time I rest my hands off the keyboard when reading things on the screen and being able to just air swipe to scroll down, change tabs etc would be nifty if it worked. Not so great if the recognition is spotty and has lots of false positives.

Dish Networks locks horns with broadcasters over ad skipping
How far does the storage requirement go?

Compulsory coding in schools: The new Nerd Tourism
So how do you teach coding?
RCJ may be somewhat misguided but I firmly believe real programming should be taught at an early stage alongside other staples such as the sciences and maths and english. Not everyone will go on to take it at GCSE/Standard Grade level but without any prior exposure surely very few will?
Case in point my 12 YO cousins recently produced apps for android at school. I'm pretty sure this was done through an app builder but it got her really excited about the possibilities. She could well go on to do CS at GCSE where hopefully she would actually be taught some real programming and some of the theory behind CS.

I love this sort of thing - a few years ago this sort of thing released 10 days ago would have been called an amusing prank. Now you could make your own version with a £100 games console peripheral and your home PC.
Renault Twizy budget e-car
I love the idea and it's getting close but still too expensive given that you can get a Toyota Aygo a year old for that price and £45 would more than cover the petrol costs for the distance you are planning in a Twizzy plus you have a car with windows.
Maybe its more attractive on HP but where it really seems to be lacking is that it has most of the disadvantages of scooters - no windows, low speed and in this case low range combined with missing one of their big benefits of lots of available parking.
Battery tech is a big problem here - at £6k without the extra battery charges and upping the range a little the equation would probably start to change a lot.
Toshiba to demo vid streaming without any work by the CPU
Personal use?
Really I don't see where you get personal use as part of this. Regular PCs can offload things like h256 to their graphics card for decoding and similarly mobile devices have specialised decoders.
Maybe pro video editors will be wanting their CPU/GPU doing something while they're watching video but the rest of us will be quite happy without that extra cost.

Re: Manufacturers give customers what they want.

JavaScript shogun deflects Google's mid-air Dart attack
Re: Shades of VBScript
The difference is that Chrome isn't the defacto leader and monopoly in web browsers or any of the fields you've mentioned.
That makes this an innovation - whether it is any good or not is by-the-by. Javascript isn't essential to HTML5 and if Google can make Dart completely open and it's better than JS then why shouldn't people adopt it?
What Microsoft did was wrong and damaging because it forced everyone else to write things broken as IE was what by far the majority used and doing anything else was commercial suicide.

My wife and I really liked this recipe. I had a small piece of steak that I cut up, browned and added to the filling. Also went heavier on the sage and thyme. Four teaspoons of butter did not seem right in the topping. It didn't look right until I had put in about 3 Tablespoons. That was enough to make a good dough and a great crust when baked.
This was pretty good, but not amazing. The biscuit topping is lovely but the Gouda on top created a crust that was a little hard to get through! I think maybe adding it for the last 10 minutes of baking would solve this. Also, the flavor doesn't improve as leftovers - I had one a few days later and was not impressed.
This was good...the biscuit topping was great. Definitely be sure to season the filling with salt and pepper as indicated in the recipe. I forgot to do this (plus I used low sodium soy sauce) and the filling was quite bland. I even think the filling could benefit from adding a cube of vegetable bullion right before simmering 13-15 minutes.

sad to go
The place was great the location private and quiet the condo was clean with beutiful linens and towels everything in the kitchen was there for a true home away. The owner was so accomadating and freindly. We would definately recommend to others. The condos near us were paying way...higher prices with unclean places and had to wash all the laundry themselves in order to not pay damage deposit. This was the best priced with so much to do on the island and a fun place for familys or singles. A great old fashioned english pub near by with excellent food and a farmers market well priced on Sundays. theres so much for everyone. Highly recommend we were a family of 8, two babies one 3yr old, two couples and Grama and eveyone would do it all again.

Archbishop Rahho was abducted by gunmen in Iraq on February 29, 2008 outside his church in Mosul as he drove home after a prayer service. He was found dead two weeks later, with his bodyguards and driver also having been murdered during his abduction.
The archbishop was born in 1942 in Mosul. Ordained to the priesthood in June 1965, he was appointed to St. Isaiah's Church in Mosul. He later founded the Church of the Sacred Heart at Tel Keppe, a new Mosul district.
Archbishop Rahho also opened an orphanage for disabled children.
He was ordained Chaldean Archbishop of Mosul on February 16, 2001, thus becoming responsible for about 20,000 Catholics in ten parishes. Mosul has one of the oldest Christian populations in the world.

Madam C.J. Walker
Madam C.J. Walker (1867-1919) is considered the first African American woman to become a millionaire. She was orphaned at age 7 and raised by her older brother. She was widowed in 1887 with one daughter after 6 years of marriage and began working as a washerwoman in St. Louis, Missouri. It was here that she developed and started selling a line of hair care products. In 1905 she moved to Denver, Colorado, where she met and married Charles J. Walker, a newspaper man. Walker demonstated and sold her products door-to-door in African American communities. She trained women to establish their own businesses for selling her hair care products and other cosmetics. The "Walker Agents" were soon well-known in the United States and the Caribbean. In 1910, Walker moved to Indianapolis and opened a manufacturing plant. She increased her wealth with real estate investments and gave sizable donations to causes that aided African Americans. Walker left two-thirds of her estate to charitable and educational institutions. Read some of the Children's Biographies about this amazing woman.
