The mediaeval Old Town of Tallinn is like the perfect setting for a romantic movie. Narrow streets lead you from the Town Hall Square through arched vaults to courtyards containing charming cafes and handicraft shops. Homes of 17th century merchants have been renovated into quaint hotels and restaurants offering anything from mediaeval treats to modern gourmet dishes. Famed for its nightlife, Tallinn will keep you entertained until the early hours of the morning.
There is plenty to see in the Old Town, but a stroll or tram ride outside the city centre is also something worth considering. This will lead you to the baroque palace of Kadriorg with its art exhibitions and parks, the modern art museum KUMU or the Museum of Occupations which is dedicated to the history of Tallinn during the Soviet and Nazi occupations. The beautiful beaches at Pirita and Stroomi are comparable to those in Southern Europe.
The airport is located 4 km southeast of Tallinn.

The Commander of Gondor: 15. A Parting Promise
The final banquet before the Rivendell delegation left Minas Tirith was breaking up. The Elves were planning a dawn start and to the men that meant that the music and feasting must end early to allow for sufficient rest. Thorongil did not mention that his experience with these three Elven lords was that they could drink and ride anyone into the ground, sing ballads all night, and leave at dawn for a three-day orc hunt without an hour of rest.
Thorongil had been distantly polite to the guests in front of the courtiers, and to Fallon, who had made one of his rare palace appearances, he seemed downright cold to the Lady Arwen. She seemed unruffled, and laughed with the charming captain. She knew Thorongil would ride with them on the morrow with an honor guard the ten miles to the Rammas. She was surprised, though, when he did not appear to bid her good night. Perhaps duty had called him away, but she was saddened, nonetheless.
Arwen was escorted by Finduilas' ladies down the corridors of the palace. She thought back to earlier in the day when she had been summoned to Finduilas' apartments. There, the Lady had apologized that she would not attend the banquet. She was taking her meals in her rooms. Her excuse was that it was near her time and she was feeling unwell, but Arwen sensed a pain and disquiet in her that had not been apparent before.
"Lady," she began as Arwen turned to leave. "Long ago in Dol Amroth, he told me of the woman he loved. I believe he said she was unattainable. You are that woman, aren't you?"
Arwen nodded. "Not really so unattainable." The lady took a deep shuddering breath as if she were terribly nervous.
"Please be kind of him. In bearing and manner, he is a strong and noble lord; in truth, far nobler I feel than any of us really know." She stopped as if searching for the right words. "But, under that, his heart…his soul…I fear he can be badly hurt. I owe him debts I cannot repay. His happiness means much to me." She looked shyly at the beautiful Elvish woman.
Arwen smiled and took her hand. Finduilas felt very comforted by her touch. "I know. Fear not, I guard his heart with all my grace. He is well loved." As Arwen turned to leave, Finduilas spoke again.
"Lady, do not wait too long. Do not wait until it is too late and you must live for ever with your regret." The woman's words, so akin to the reason she had come here, had shaken Arwen.
Now, the attending women turned down a lamp-lit passageway away from her, wishing Arwen safe journey tomorrow. Her room was just a few yards further on. She sighed. Her time with Aragorn had been too short; always it was too short. Suddenly, he was beside her. Aragorn had stepped from a doorway where he had been waiting and took her hand in his. Silently, they walked to her room and went inside. The shutting door echoed down the corridor.
Aragorn woke in the dark, and for one disoriented moment, couldn't remember who he was. The bed hangings were opulent and the sheets beneath his cheek were silk. Then he remembered and turned to reach for Arwen. She was gone. He opened his eyes and started up. The candles had burned low; it was near dawn. Arwen sat in a chair across the room, knees drawn up, wrapped in his tunic. The Evenstar, most serene of beings, was sobbing uncontrolled. She pressed his sleeve against her mouth to muffle the sound and blotting at her streaming eyes.
Aragorn got up and went to kneel before her. They had parted many times and a few tears from both were usually the payment for their time together, but this was much more. She could not catch her breath to speak and would not look at him.
"What is it, my love?" he asked tenderly. She fiercely pulled him close and he held her until she gained control.
"I had a dream---a vision of smoke and fire---of you in chains before Sauron." Aragorn knew the dream well; he had spent many nights in that environs, the heat of Orodruin on his face, the metal shackles digging into his flesh.
"Hush. 'Tis but a dream; a vision of the night that will fade with the dawn." He stroked her hair.
"No, it was more. I can no longer endure this! The danger is so close here. And at home, I am as a carrion bird, waiting for word of your death!" she said vehemently. "Come to Rivendell and I'll convince Father to care nothing about kingship. We can live quietly and ride and hunt and read and have children. And," she added, "forget about the outside world."
"It tempts me greatly, but I find I do care about kingship. Gondor needs me. I will be fine, I swear. You have my promise. I will be home by Midsummer two years hence. I swear to hold true to this as long as I am alive." He smiled and stood up. "Come, love, it's nearly time to go. I must be away and be sitting on my horse with the escort when you come down." He went to the bed and pulled on his boots. Arwen reluctantly gave back his coat.
A short while later, the Elven lords and Lady Arwen, booted, spurred and dressed for riding, came down the palace stairs with the Steward and his son. Six mounted Gondor guardsmen sat at attention with Commander Thorongil and Captain Fallon at their head. The emissaries sprang onto their horses and the troop clattered through the just awaking town, downhill to the main gates and out to the North Road at the crossroads. Elrohir and Elladan rode on either side of Thorongil, speaking low but animatedly. Fallon rode with Arwen and Legolas; the pair was silent and the Lady looked terribly sad.
It was not long before they were at the northern defense line. The sentry saluted the troop and Thorongil halted his men. The Elves dismounted and Thorongil swung down, handing Fallon his rein. They walked away from the troop. Elrohir embraced him, looked directly into his eyes and said, "You do this family proud." A quick embrace for Elladan and Thorongil turned to Arwen. In front of the Honor Guard and sentinels, he kissed her fiercely, and tossed her back up on her horse. He rested his hand on her thigh a moment, and said.
"Do not worry. Remember, by Midsummer, two years hence, no later. I will let nothing stop me."
"Legolas," he turned to the prince, gripped his forearm, and leaned close. Aragorn spoke no words to him; none were needed. Legolas nodded.
"I shall see her home safe to Imladris," he pledged.
Thorongil mounted his horse and watched them ride away. Fallon ordered the honor guard to start back to the city, then sat beside his commander, waiting. When the Elves were out of sight, Thorongil silently turned, and putting spurs to his horse, caught up to the column, taking his place at the head. Fallon, for once, respected his commander's mood and it was a silent ride back to the White City.
Thorongil rode along, deep in thought, not in this place or time. His tunic smelled of Rivendell: the mist off the falls, sweet honeyed wine, autumn woodsmoke, and her elusive perfume. He looked up to see the sunlight catch the Tower of Ecthelion, Mount Mindolluin behind, and heard the trumpets announcing their return. He hoped two uneventful years would pass by quickly. Then he saw the messenger on a lathered horse galloping from the South.

Nokia SDK 2.0 for Java and Nokia SDK 1.1 for Java both which use to work fine on my pc (windows 7 64bit prof os) along with jdk 1.6.0_27(32 bit) stopped working and started complaining for RMI Registry port after i updated the jdk to the latest version i.e. 1.6.0_45 (32 bit). I am aware of RMI Registry port issue with jdk 1.6.0_29 so i had used 1.6.0_27 but it seems the issue reappears with latest 1.6.0_45. Is it still open with 1.6.0_45? Can't nokia sdk provide a workaround else at least it must ask user which jdk they want to use to install nokia sdk, which i think will solve the problem. In that case i can have a older ver 1.6.0_27 installed and the nokia sdk will remain unaffected by any new version of jdk installed in the system. Note i had installed both 32 and 64 bit ver of 1.6.0_45 jdk and Nokia 1.1 and 2.0 SDK stopped working since then. Also there must be a option to change the jdk associated with Nokia sdk with post install too.
Currently, the only way to fix those issues you are experiencing is following: uninstall whatever version of JDK you have and install 32bit JDK7u17. It's still available for download from Oracle:
Make sure that you use 32bit version of JDK, even if your PC is 64bit.
This solution worked for me,
- Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bits
- JDK 7u17 (thanks mtron for the informations)
- Nokia SDK 2.0 for Java
It worked for me too. I installed JDK 7u21 32 bit on my Windows 7 prof 64 bit.
But it broke as soon as i installed JDK 7u21 64 bit. But its a big prob as i have many java programs which required 64 bit java.
The best way Nokia SDK can resolve this problem is to ask user which jdk they want for installation. It will be even better if we can switch the jdk after installation.
Both the above features are already implemented by oracle java me sdk ver 3.2.
Also Nokia Web Developer Environment 2.3.0 is working fine even if you have JDK 7u21 64 bit installed.
hi, thank u.. its working for me too.
btw, do u have any idea how to launch new application on nokia 6212 emulator.
actually, i have run P2PExample project, but this application is not comin out in nokia6212 emulator.
any idea
After reading about the new Asha 501 just yesterday, I thought "Yes! This is exactly what I've been waiting for." ... And then immediately bitten by this bug after installing the SDK? And it has been a reoccurring issue for years?? Honestly, most respectfully, I am not getting it.
Downgrading the Java version is out of the question with known security issues in the wild - sorry, but I can't do that

With Java SDK 7u17, the emulator indeed works as advertized - but then the Nokia/Eclipse IDE will not start. Netbeans still finds its way though, after some initial whining. Netbeans is quite solid in that respect.
Resolved after adjusting the $PATH env variable to include ... \jdk1.7.0_17\bin
Everything works! I have a "HelloWorld" on an emulated Asha 501

Already tried, Nokia SDK (1.1 & 2.0) does not work with latest JDK 1.6.0_45 32 bit on my windows 7 sp1 64 bit os.
After installing new Asha SDK 1.0 I have had the same issue with RMI port. I have Windows Pro 7 64 bit. I have removed Java 7 and now use 1.6.0_34.
Once you remove JR 1.7 make sure it is not selected in Control Panel / Java and tab Java ->View->System. After removing reboot your system and then Nokia SDK 1.0 or 2.0 should
launch ok.
64-bit Java is a problem, use the 32-bit variant of Java instead. In a 32-bit Windows:
Nokia SDK 1.0, 1.1, 2.0 and the new Asha work here with Java 7 Update 17 (1.7.0_17). Then, these emulators work. IDEs were never affected. Java 6 Update 43 (1.6.0_43) is not required additionally here. For me, using Java 6 in parallel with Java 7, created problem with the emulator of the 6th Edition (missing MSVCR71.dll). Nevertheless, Java 6 Update 43 is fine with all emulators which are newer than 6th Edition.
- Java 6 Update 29 is a problem, because …
- Java 6 Update 45 and newer is a problem.
- Java 7 Update 1 is a problem, because …
- Java 7 Update 21 and newer is a problem
For those like me who are not that regularly in Windows:
- Start » Control Panel (» Programs) » Programs and Features » double-click Java 7 Update 21 to remove it
- Install Java 7 Update 17
- Start » Control Panel (» Programs) » Java » tab "Update" » untick "Check for Updates Automatically"
- Start » Internet Explorer » Tools » Manage add-ons » Java Plug-in » button at the lower right "Disable"

Its working fine with Java 7 Update 21 32 bit (Win 7 prof 64 bit OS), but if u install Java 7 Update 21 64 bit on top of it then it stops working. I recommend installing only 32 bit Java 7 Update 21 to work with Nokia SDK (1.0,1.1,2.0). But i am stuck as i need a 64 bit java runtime too to execute 64 bit java programs.

Pastor Tom Clark of Tri-City Christian Academy blessed the American Ambulance fleet as their contract with Somersworth for 911 service commenced last week. General Manager Paul Robidas said while a blessing isn't conducted with all ambulatory services, he thought it was a good way to begin official service with the community. "We just thought it was important. We want the crews safe and we want our vehicles safe," he said.

Knight's Towing wins award
Tuesday, May 7, 2013
BARRINGTON — The owners of Knight's Towing recently won the 2012 Order of the Towman Award, which recognizes professionalism and dedication to the towing trade and the community.
According to Kevin Knight, Knight's Towing provides towing services to the local police departments, such as in cases of major vehicle accidents, about four to five times a week, on average.
Kevin Knight said he and Jackson became owners of Knight's Towing in 1996. Previously, Kevin Knight's parents, Roberta and Fred Knight, owned the business.
"It's really a family business and they're always accommodating," said Rochester resident Patricia Taylor, who met the owners of Knight's Towing in the late 1970s and was recently getting her truck checked by workers at the business.
"They're just always been right there, no matter what, honest and fair," Taylor added.
In 2003, Fred Knight was also nominated for the national Towing Hall of Fame, located in Chattanooga, Tenn.
Fred Knight said that employees at the business always try to be fair and honest.
Roberta Knight said that upon learning that Knight's Towing won the award, "We were very honored as parents."

Nitrogen is the most ephemeral of the key plant nutrients. Its availability in the soil depends on factors including the temperature and moisture of air and soil, the composition and condition of soil, and the activity level of soil organisms. It's so transient that most soil labs don't include it among the parameters they test for in a soil sample.
Nitrogen is critical for plant growth, though. It is a fundamental part of chlorophyll, and when leaves contain sufficient nitrogen, photosynthesis occurs at high rates. That's why one of the important warning signs of nitrogen deficiency is yellowing, pale green leaves—especially if this chlorosis develops in the oldest leaves—and indolent plant growth despite fine weather.
Some plants are particularly heavy "feeders" or users of nitrogen, including roses, corn, lettuce, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, and cabbage. While organic compost contains nitrogen, compost alone often does not provide an adequate supply for these plants. Gardeners who grow nitrogen-hungry plants may have to replenish this element regularly.
One great way to boost nitrogen is by planting leguminous cover crops, such as alfalfa, clover, hairy vetch, or peas. These plants collaborate with soil bacteria to absorb nitrogen from the air and deposit it in tiny root nodules—a process called nitrogen fixation. A cover crop planted in the fall or early spring and turned into the ground can provide most if not all the nitrogen needed by the crop planted afterward.
Nitrogen is also available in a range of organic amendments, particularly those that contain proteins—grains, seeds, legumes, and animal by-products—since the building blocks of proteins, amino acids, are made from nitrogen. The amount of nitrogen each contains, and speed of uptake, varies from one material to the next.
Here are the most commonly used nitrogen sources, their pros and cons, and how they're best used.

I've got one question for that mailing list. Will that just be about the open source drivers and/or the documentation (release) or will that also cover the fglrx driver (I don't guess it will be a support list for the fglrx driver.)?
Another thing is, I've got the feeling that the bugzilla page could need some serious clean up. As far as I can tell, there are a lot of dups and just about anything is marked critical or blocker.
Maybe you could need some help, I don't mean me, but I'm sure, there are a some guys who know about this hardware and the drivers, that could help out.

Martial Heroes
UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
Martial Heroes is a 3D fantasy MMORPG with a martial arts/oriental theme. Martial Heroes has fast-paced combat and four classes; Monk, Warrior, Mage, and Assassin. Each class can specialize in one of three weapons which leads to twelve unique character builds with different skills and play styles.
Publisher: CR-Space
Playerbase: Low
Graphics: Low Quality
Type: MMORPG
EXP Rate: High
PvP: Open PvP
Filesize: 470 MB
Pros: +Three variants of each of the four classes. +New players start with 300 HP/MP potions & other items. +Open PvP.
Cons: -Limited appearance customization. -No sense of challenge. -Extremely fast experience rate makes early level quests useless.
This game has been SHUT DOWN – It is NO LONGER available. This means the official servers are offline and no one can create new accounts or log in to the game. For all intents and purposes this game is dead. This page will be updated if the game ever re-launches.
Martial Heroes Overview
Martial Heroes is a simple MMORPG with high experience rates and varied environments. Players are free to attack one another, but must suffer the consequences of being labeled a PK (player killer). The game is very beginner friendly, and gives new players plenty of items and supplies to help them during the early phases. Though you select your class during character creation, it is not until level 12 that players chose which weapon to specialize in. Each of the four classes has three weapon specialization options. The choice is not trivial; each weapon brings with it its own set of skills, which makes for a total of twelve character types. The four classes are:
Warrior - Warriors are the primary tanks and direct physical damage dealers. They have high defense and health to absorb blows from enemies. Warriors may wield either a scimitar, axe, or lance.
Assassin - Assassins rely on speed and cunning over brute force. They deal heavy damage, but are physically weaker than Monks and Warriors. They can master either melee or ranged combat with their weapon choices: twin daggers, Bow, or Spike Gauntlets (Katars).
Monk - The supportive class of Martial Heroes. Monks can fight alone, but shine in groups where they heal and buff their allies. Weapon choices include: Pole, Mace or Shields (Loops).
Mage - Offensive spell-casters who possess the most powerful damage output. They are physically weaker than other classes and rely on indirect combat or allies to distract their targets. Mages use fans, gloves, or swords.
Players gain +3 stat points per level and +5 on levels that are multiples of 12 (12, 24, 36, etc)
Str - Relates to physical damage, and is the most important stat for Warriors.
Vit - Boosts defense and maximum health. An important stat for Monks.
Dex - Increases accuracy (attack rating) and movement speed. Vital for Assassins.
Agi - Controls dodge rate and attack speed. Secondary attribute for Assassins.
Int - Main attribute for Mages and Monks. Increases max mana and skill damage.
All classes need a combination of all five stats to equip gear and be well-balanced.

Martial Heroes Review
By Erhan Altay
Martial Heroes was released in 2003 by Lizard Interactive and continues to be serviced today, though it has a small player base. Like many other MMORPGs, Martial Heroes is set in an oriental fantasy world instead of the typical European medieval setting. As the name implies, the game tries to incorporate martial arts. In this sense, it is similar to games like Tantra Online, 9Dragons, and Hero Online. To see how well Martial Heroes stacks up when compared to other games in this crowded genre, read on.
Starting Out
With only a single live server, Martial Heroes isn't the most popular free MMORPG, and we begin to see why during character creation. There are four available classes: Fighter, Monk, Mage, and Assassin. All Assassins are female, while the other three classes are male. There is no gender selection available – the only appearance customization option is face style, of which there are around five per class. Players are given five stat points to distribute among the game's five attributes: Strength, Dexterity, Vitality, Agility, and Intelligence. A notable feature in Martial Heroes is the fact that despite what class you pick, you'll have to raise all five stats to a certain degree. Obviously Assassins will favor Dex and Agi over other attributes, but in order to equip weapons and armor they will need to raise Str, Vit, and even some Int. This makes character development a bit more complicated, but more involved. Martial Heroes plays like most MMORPGs – click to move, attack, and assign items and skills to a toolbar. The graphics are mediocre at best, with slightly fuzzy and jagged character models. Even after 5+ years there are several bugs. For example, my toolbar would occasionally not show my potions, but wouldn't let me reassign them to another slot, forcing me to open my inventory and manually right-click them.
The Rare Quest
After character creation, players may or may not find themselves in a tutorial area. Luckily, players have the option of skipping the tutorial and this is much advised. With or without the tutorial, all new characters start the game with a ton of items to help them get started. If nothing else, Martial Heroes could be guilty of being too accommodating to new players. Inside your bag, you'll find 300 health potions, 300 mana potions, a dozen or so skill books, and plenty of equipment. Because of this absurd starting booty and the game's generally fast experience rate, the early game quests are all meaningless. Sure, they provide large amounts of the game's currency, but new players won't have much use for it early on. The only real reason to pursue the game's quests is that there are so few of them (around ninety quests total throughout the game) that completing them can be compared to earning achievements or badges in other games. The quest log actually keeps track of all the quests the player has completed, along with all quests still outstanding. To be fair, most of the late game quests have multiple parts, but this still doesn't make up for the pitiful quest total.
Grind With Haste
Only after leaving town and killing a bull or fox will readers understand why the low level quests are not worth doing. Killing one animal will level you up, and things are just as fast up until level 12. Each level, players receive an additional three stat points, but it is not until level 12 that they may select which of three weapons they wish to specialize in. What makes Martial Heroes unique is that while there are only four classes, each has three weapons that they can master. Each weapon type brings with it its own skill set and play style, which means there are actually twelve archetypes rather than four. Unfortunately, choosing your weapon type means going back to town and completing an irrelevant quest such as 'kill five of this monster and come back!' It took me longer to go back to town, get the quest, go find the monster it mentioned, kill them, and return than it did to get from level 1-12. But once this was done, I could go back to grinding freely.
Ninjas Everywhere
Open PvP is something not often found in MMORPGs these days. There was a time when this was the default option, but has since been abandoned. So the fact that Martial Heroes has a logical open pvp system with consequences attached for repeat killers is a huge plus. Initiating combat against another player leaves you open to retaliation, while killing them earns you karma points. Rack up enough karma points and you'll be labeled a public enemy, which allows other players to attack you without penalty. Additionally, NPC shop keepers will refuse to do business with you. To keep new players from being harassed, players can only attack those who are level 36 or above, but with a level cap of 160, there's still bound to be a lot of mismatched fights.
Thirty-six is an important level, not only because it throws players into the open PvP environment, but also because that is when players have to choose which of the two factions they wish to join. The aptly named 'Evil' and 'Lawful' factions require the completion of a quest before membership is permitted. As with weapon selection, the faction you pick has a real effect on your character. Different skills are available for Evil and Lawful characters. When you consider all the different branches of character development, Martial Heroes starts looking like a much more in-depth game than it was at first glance. Class, weapon, and faction selection combined mean there are twenty-four character types you can end up with at level 36. If the game has kept your interest for that long, odds are you'll continue to enjoy it.
Final Verdict: Poor
With so many better games in the same genre, it's difficult to recommend the dated and simplistic Martial Heroes to anyone. Since it does have a fast experience rate, it won't take long to experience the game and decide for yourself if it's worth your continued game time.

Gram wrote:Raffaella...Thank you for the effort to find the surname Polseni. In my research I have found more incorrect spelling then correct spelling of names. Carolina is the only Polseni arrival on the Ellis Island website. It could have beeen a mistake in spelling on her departure papers. She was destined to her step-brother, Guiseppe Fanelli.
She was not married when she emigrated. She married Pietro Lonetto in 1906 or 1907 in New York. Pietro Lonetto emigrated from Mesoraca, Catanzaro (Crotone), Calabria in 1903. I know there are Lonettos in Mesoraca today.
Carolina became a widow at age 38. At that time she had seven children, ages 12 years to two months old. She did not marry again. She is my husband's great-aunt. She died in 1970 at age 85. I would like to honor this women by finding her remarkable story.
I am going to check with the Mormons (Church of the Latter Day Saints) research center to see if they have micro-filmed the civil records Jelsi or Riccia. Thanks again for your interest. Claudia

More Android devices are running Froyo than the latest KitKat software, as a disgruntled developer laments Android fragmentation.
But Jelly Bean remains the top flavor of Google's mobile OS with a dominant 51 percent of all devices seen on Google Play.
Google unveils the name of the latest version of Android, which was previously referred to as "L."
A promo suggests possible names for Google's next mobile operating system, from Lemon Meringue Pie to Lemon Drop.
But the latest version of Android is still far behind Jelly Bean, which reigns on more than half of all devices recorded.
The upcoming "L" version of Android version brings a new user interface, and Google's Web apps will adopt it, too. It's one of many new Android features Google showed at its Google I/O show.
Still, fragmentation remains a thorn in the side of Android, especially compared with the relative ease of Apple's iOS updates.
Jelly Bean is now on 59.1 per cent of all active Android devices, according to the latest figures from Google.
So a Google employee reportedly went off on protesters blocking the company's San Francisco shuttle bus was staged. Turns out it was staged and the resulting outrage fed narrative that speaks volumes about the great tech backlash 2014.
Android 4.4 KitKat will get its first update in the next few days, Google has promised, with the main focus the Nexus 5's disappointing camera.

Latest update : 2012-05-09
Syrian government using malware to spy on activists
The Syrian authorities using malware to spy on anti-government activists. Online comedians comment on the outcome of France's presidential election. And an American radio host creates the ultimate viral video…
Syrian government using malware to spy on activists
This website provides software claiming to encrypt Skype video conferencing software, but according to computer security firm "Trend Micro", it is actually spyware that collects all sorts of information from the computers it infects and sends the data on to a server located in Syria.
Similar malicious software or malware was spread a few weeks ago via a fake site masquerading as video sharing platform YouTube which Syrian opposition activists use on a daily basis to report on the repression across the country. These anti-government cyber activists are regularly targeted by these types of electronic traps, designed to monitor their online activity.
According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital rights advocacy group based in the US, there has been a proliferation of these phishing attempts on Facebook in recent weeks. For example, links have been slipped into the commentary boxes on pages visited by cyber activists; links which redirect the user to a fake page on the well-known social network, with a view to stealing their user names and passwords.
The United States has decided to clamp down on these practices. Last month, Barack Obama announced sanctions on individuals or organizations found using new technology to carry out human rights abuses in Syria and Iran. The measures also apply to western companies that help these countries create web censorship tools or systems to track and monitor web users.
French election: web users react to the results with humour
François Hollande's victory and Nicolas Sarkozy's defeat in France's presidential election on Sunday have provided online comedians with an endless source of inspiration: they have been having a field day poking fun at the outgoing president. Here's a look at some of the best creations doing the rounds on the web following the announcement of the election outcome.
The team behind this video is celebrating the end of Nicolas Sarkozy's time in power: it's shown as the closing credits of a film, entitled "Le Quinquennat" meaning the five year period, it lists all the defeated French president's colleagues and allies, with a tongue in cheek take on the roles they played in this five year long feature film.
Another parody cashing in on Nicolas Sarkozy's defeat: this revisited version of a track by French rap group « Sexion d'assaut ». The song was posted online by a web user going under the pseudonym "Mister JDay" and looks back at key moments of the outgoing president's mandate, reminding him there is still cause for satisfaction; he may not have won the election, but he is still married to Carla Bruni.
Collaborative information site Rue89 has produced a spoof of the highly popular « Angry Birds » video game; it's called « Ciao Sarko ». The goodies, the birds, have been replaced by François Hollande and the baddies, the pigs, by Nicolas Sarkozy. The video promises a new game in 2017.
And finally, some have come up with some somewhat wacky ways of toasting France's new president. British actor Sacha Baron Cohen for example has uploaded this video, which sees him dressed up his dictator character congratulating François Hollande. In his address, the comedian does slip in however the fact that he was disappointed his idol Dominique Strauss Khan was unable to run in the presidential election.
Replace Face
The actor Leonardo DiCaprio or golfer Tiger Woods dressed as generals from the 19th century Imperial army… blogger Steve Payne has played around with canvases by British painter George Dawe who is known, in particular, for his 329 portraits of Russian generals that defeated Napoleon when he invaded Russia in 1812. He has replaced the heroes' faces with those of his friends and family and also some celebrities. 23
Now trending on social networks
Josephine Lamberti, aka J-Dimps, has set herself the unlikely challenge of reaching the 80,000 Twitter followers mark before she dies. The 80 year old American woman has enlisted the help of her grandson, and is grabbing web users' attention by flooding the web with messages and videos full of self-deprecating humour. She has also been calling upon celebrities for their support, some have obliged, helping this very special grandmother reach her goal, she is now not far off, with near to 77 000 followers on the micro blogging site.
Video of the day
To celebrate his YouTube channel passing the symbolic bar of 100 million views, American radio host Ryan Seacrest decided to create the ultimate viral video: it features Justin Bieber and other elements which generally guarantee it's going to create a buzz; like puppies or babies… you can check out the video in its entirety on Seacrests's official channel on the video sharing platform.
