Leading Storage Provider Works with Facebook and Industry Partners to Help Define and Implement Efficient Tiered Storage Strategies that Reduce Total Cost of Ownership for Corporate and Cloud Datacentres
Open Compute Summit (Booth C7), 17 January 2013- HGST (formerly Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and now a Western Digital company, NASDAQ: WDC) today announced that it has joined the Open Compute Project, an initiative launched by Facebook in 2011, to increase technology efficiencies and reduce the environmental impacts of datacentres.
With the explosion of data resulting from mobile devices, Internet services, social media and business applications, corporate, cloud and big data customers are constantly looking for ways to improve their storage infrastructure costs and their bottom line. The Open Compute Project applies open-source software principles to the hardware industry to drive the development of the most efficient computing infrastructures at the lowest possible cost. HGST will contribute its expertise toward defining storage solutions that deliver the performance and density required while achieving low total cost of ownership (TCO) reflected in metrics such as cost-per-terabyte, watt-per-TB, TB-per-system weight and TB-per-square foot.
"Demand for storage is booming as IT managers strive to handle the avalanche of new data being generated by cloud datacentres, Big Data analytics, social networking, HD video and millions of mobile devices," said Brendan Collins, vice president of product marketing at HGST. "As a strategic drive supplier and consultant to Facebook and in collaboration with the Open Compute Project, we're defining best practices in the storage industry to afford end-users with greater capital savings, operational efficiencies and energy conservation in the datacentre."
The fourth Open Compute Summit is January 16-17, 2013, at the Santa Clara Convention Center - 5001 Great America Parkway in Santa Clara, Calif. As a Summit sponsor, HGST will be showcasing its Ultrastar™ 4TB enterprise-class HDD, the world's first 4TB enterprise-class hard drive, which provides space-efficient, high-performance, low-power storage for traditional enterprises as well as for the explosive big data and cloud/Internet markets where storage density, watt-per-gigabyte and cost-per-GB are critical parameters. The 4TB Ultrastar 7K4000 family raises the bar with a five-year limited warranty and a 2.0 million hours MTBF specification, resulting in a 40 percent lower annualised failure rate (AFR) than enterprise drives rated at 1.2 million hours MTBF. As a leader in enterprise-class SAS SSDs, HGST will also be showcasing its Ultrastar enterprise-class SSDs that meet the performance, capacity, endurance and reliability demands of today's Tier 0, mission-critical datacentre applications.

The Open Compute Project is a collective effort by Facebook and a number of players in the datacenter industry to bring lessons learned from the social media giant's giant IT deployment to the rest of the world. Datacenters account for 3% of global electricity consumption – about the same as all of Switzerland or the Czech Republic -- according to people I met at the recent Open Compute Summit in San Jose. With increasing mobility at the edge of the cloud and vast new dataflows being predicted with the growth of the Internet of Things (and The Coming Age of Many Zettabytes) in the near...

From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

New iOS Keylogging Vulnerability Discovered 72
from the it's-called-eye-phone-duh dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
this one relies on apps that run in the background and "listen" to touch inputs
since android is multitasking as well i assume it has the same issues
Background tasks don't receive touch input. That's why they are in the background.
Unless you are iOS and have this vulnerability.
So, someone who's breaking the ToS (not being rogue) has to put an app out, then you have to install it, and then it's scraping inputs.
Oh so it's not a security vulnerability if it's against the Terms of Service, wow Microsoft should implement a ToS and then most of their Windows security issues will cease to exist.
This isn't a security vulnerability as most responses on here opine about.
Of course it is, how do you figure that a process running in the background being able to break out of the sandbox restrictions and capture all inputs is not a security vulnerability? You would have to be a complete Apple shill to be in such denial about a bug like this.
My car has a gas pedal. Does the ECM for engine management have a "security vulnerability," because I can press hard on the right pedal and do 180mph (illegal by federal law)?? No. It's functioning as designed.
Yet the application sandboxing in iOS is clearly not working as designed as it is allowing background processes to capture all inputs. Since you clearly don't understand the concept of sandboxing it is obvious why you would not see the security problem here.
In seeking the unattainable, simplicity only gets in the way. -- Epigrams in Programming, ACM SIGPLAN Sept. 1982

Puerto Rico Palm Lined Beach With Boat At Sunset by Jo Ann Tomaselli. Any time I travel and can spend time near the water is magical. Add a palm tree and I'm really happy as that means the climate is tropical. A boat in the distance, gently floating on the water off the sandy beach, implies a measure of desirable recreation. Add a golden setting sun, a gentle breeze, a blue sky reflected in the ocean and the perfect setting, bathed in beautiful light, presents itself for my total enjoyment. On a recent trip to Puerto Rico, it was the goal of my family to find a different location every evening from which to enjoy the sunset. Rincon offers many winding roads, hillside cliffs and easy access paths to the beach, so our choices were...

January Jones With Brown Hair
January Jones as a Brunette: Love It or Leave It?
Like us on Facebook
Earlier this year, January Jones surprised the world with pink highlights in her blond hair, but now she has gone for a darker hair change. Recently, the Mad Men star was spotted with a new brunette hair color. Is the new color just an update according to the season or is it for a film role? That is yet to be seen. But the deeper color (and matching brows) does bring out the best in her fair complexion. Are you loving this deep brunette hue on January, or do you prefer the bright blond look?

adult step children
Help! They all live with us. His are 24, 22, 19 mine is 11.
The 19-year-old is the only girl.
The 24-year-old has had some issues that delayed his development/maturity but is a total sweetheart who helps around the house, etc.
The 22-year-old is about to leave for a six month internship has a MAJOR attitude, no consideration and wants nothing to do with me.
The 19-year-old is a slob and only has occasional, typical teenage attitude. She is hot and cold on me.
The 11-year-old is rolling merrily along as far as I can tell.
The 24-year-old and 11-year-old are sharing a room until we can finish the basement. They have not complained. The other two have been asked to change nothing (other than pick up after themselves more) and they have attitude -- especially the one about to leave.
How can I tolerate him until he's gone so he doesn't leave angry? He will grow up A LOT when he goes, I know it. In the mean time, he is VERY hard to live with.....
It doesn't matter how angry he is;
he's living in a family home, & if he won't behave himself of his own free will, he needs some pressure applied by a "silverback male".
The silverback male is the dominant male gorilla in a family or troupe;
he's the one who keeps the aggressive young males from terrorizing the females & the youngsters.
In other words...
your husband needs to put this entitled little upstart firmly in his place.
If hubs won't do that (& if he hasn't done it already, he might well not), don't try to do it yourself;
aggressive young males just get angrier when confronted with a female who challenges them, & that's when they get violent.
Hang in there until he moves out, *& don't let him move back in*.
Be firm with husband that this is how it has to be;
no parent should allow an adult person, "child" or not, to be hateful to his wife & family.
I wish you the best.
I'm so sorry.
Thank you for the affirmation ladies. My thoughts, which I have expressed, are that the 22-year-old will not be back with any degree of permanency.
Clarification -- we are not married yet. This may be part of the problem. We got engaged at Christmas and my son and I moved in to "their" house. We are Catholic and waiting for our previous marriages to be annulled so we can marry in the church -- should be about another year. I have a house which is being foreclosed on and I haven't even brought over all my things because there is nowhere to put them. Everytime I try to make room by cleaning out a cupboard or such, 22 or 19 resists in some way.
These two have run this household and they are mad that I am taking over and their fun is done. I hate to say it but I really think 22 leaving will make a huge difference.
Meanwhile, we are not keeping his room as a shrine! The 24-year-old will use it while he is gone until and unless the basement gets finished. (Which is taking forever because the 22-year-old and 19-year-old keep wrecking cars, etc, etc.....)22 will NOT like that -- no one is allowed in his room (but he's allowed everywhere, of course, including my bathroom to borrow my hairdryer!).
This will be the acid test for my relationship I think, 22 out and changes start happening rapidly. If not, I still have a house to move back to temporarily.
I want my fiancee to be angry with his kids for hurting me. He is just sad about it.
BTW -- clue me in on all the abbreviations: DH, DD, BM, SSD????
DH/DW- Dear Husband/Wife (or Damn Husband/Wife!)
DD/DS - Dear Daughter/Dear Son
BM - Birth Mom
SD/SS - Step Daughter/Step Son
SGD/SGS - Step grand-daughter/son
SF/SM - Stepfather /Stepmother
FDH/FDW - Future Dear Husband/Wife
Here's the thing. As a SD and a SM/BM myself, it's been interesting detangling all the emotions that swirl around.
22 year old - no one allowed in his room (why would anyone be there unless to snoop would be my thought on his reasoning process) but he feels he can go in your bathroom (because it has items he "needs" to use, like hairdryer).
I personally as a SD did not get why SM was getting so uptight about her stuff. I'm a kid. My parents stuff is for me to use (pre-set rules/attitudes/lifestyle in which I had been raised and then she comes in and it all changes and all of a sudden I'm getting less).
Now that I'm a SM and BM, I understand how SM could have felt a little intruded upon. But that comes with age. :)
It sounds to me like these kids (using the term loosely) are having a lot of changes, and those changes can be associated with you. You are "to blame". If your FDH doesn't establish the ground rules for the household it will continue to be in turmoil. My father let me and my SM work it out on our own. LOLOLOLOLOLOL. Needless to say, I still think she's a selfish biyotch and she still thinks I'm a daddy's girl brat. Dad was the only one who could have prevented this.
"we are not married yet. This may be part of the problem. We got engaged at Christmas and my son and I moved in to "their" house."
This is definitely a HUGE part of the problem! You moved into THEIR territory & I went through this with my kids when DH moved into my house. My kids are 19, 20 & 23. Merging two households is ALWAYS going to mean some changes... unless one only brings their toothbrush, but that is never the case.
"We are Catholic and waiting for our previous marriages to be annulled so we can marry in the church -- should be about another year."
I am confused by this... I am also Catholic & don't get why it's important to wait a year to annul your previous marriages so you may marry in the church, yet it's okay to live in sin for that year? It may also be a conflict these adult children pick up on... the hypocrisy. They may also resent that their father (and you) want to make the marriage to their mother null & void, as if it never happened.
"I have a house which is being foreclosed on and I haven't even brought over all my things because there is nowhere to put them. Everytime I try to make room by cleaning out a cupboard or such, 22 or 19 resists in some way. These two have run this household and they are mad that I am taking over and their fun is done"
They resist because you are intruding on their turf. Whether they are right or wrong, it is not a good plan for you to come into their home and "take over"... their fun may be done, but it's their father's job to end the fun, not yours. If he isn't willing to, maybe it's time to rethink a long term relationship with someone that either has no backbone in dealing with his children or has a different standard or view on raising children. He is entitled to raise his kids how he chooses & if he enables them, again his choice. You have a choice to be there or not. He hasn't married you so you are just a girlfriend & have no kids with him. His kids are his problem. You have an 11 year old to think about and moving him into a house with angry grown children where he may not feel welcomed and treated well... that is a problem.
I'm a SD and a SM also, like silversword. I too had confusion with borrowing/using SM's things. (Worst case was when I used almost ALL of her feminine hygiene products! I was only about twelve, I barely knew her and I almost never saw her alone without my father in the room, and was just waaaay too embarrassed to bring up the subject in front of him or to try to get her out of the room to talk to her privately, so... I said nothing. The poor woman was understandably quite unhappy to discover that I had used almost all of them!)
Anyway, back on topic, I wonder if the annulment proceeding is bothering them? My father was considering getting an annulment and frankly my siblings and I were not particularly pleased. Religious reasons aside, it can be very hurtful to children to feel that their parent(s) wished that their marriage had never happened; by extension, it can seem like parent(s) wish that THEY never happened, being products of said marriage. There was a difference, in our minds, between wishing that the marriage was over and wishing that it had never occurred (which is basically what an annulment is, I believe.) At least that was our experience.
He needs to step up, I agree -- how do I persuade him?
And for the SD and SS out there -- when new people enter your life, don't assume the rules that applied to the people that were already there apply to them too. Ask.
I'd have been glad to lend him the hairdryer if he asked. I'm not okay with him rooting through my stuff to find it which is what he did. And if I had needed something of his and done the same, he would have blown a gasket.
You have a good point about the annulment. They probably don't understand it. What it means is that the marriage was not sacramental -- not that it never happened. However, most people don't know that. How would you suggest we communicate that to them? Especially since they are currently avoiding me.
That's a very good point because FDH has no witnesses so EX has to participate and the idea made her cry (she's remarried to the guy she cheated with). So, they probably picked up on that.
--"I want my fiancee to be angry with his kids for hurting me. He is just sad about it"--
24 yr old is a helpful sweetie, 19 yr old runs hot and cold, 22 wants nothing to do with you. 22 yr old helps himself to your hairdryer. Kids resist your attempts to clean out cupboards and such.
Okay, except for acting like 2 old tomcats marking territory, I guess I've missed the parts of posting where the kids are 'hurting' you. I mean deliberately going out of their way to make your life miserable and kick your personal feelings all to heck. The part that might support dad being angry instead of just sad that it is taking time to adjust to new person living in their home and accepting changes to the living environment?
There are two sides to every story and in trying to adjust and understand the two positions, one needs to be able to empathize as to what the other thinks and feels.
Reverse the position...think how if these kids and dad moved into your house. They start sorting through your things, deciding what might stay or go to make room for their own things or how they want things to be in 'their new home'.
It takes time, Sharon. Yeah, they are not 'kids' anymore but you just moved into their family home. They are resisting change by someone they see as 'the outsider'. Approach might be what needs adjusted. You can't force yourself or your desires on them ...well, you can, but they'll do this resisting/attitude thing (example: SS22).
Lead by dad, you might try a good old fashion family meeting. Lay out the issues (don't forget they get to lay out their issues too) and seek compromise. If the family needs to downsize old possessions from cupboards and closets, is it pitched, sold, stored for later use? If an item is in personal area and someone wants to use/borrow, here are the rules/guidelines on doing so. Six people living in one household for time being and household has needs to run smoothly... so divide up assignments to household task and dad/you expect everyone to hold up their assignment.
Harboring resentment and demanding anger is not a solution. If your feelings are hurt, talk about it and why, same as you have to listen to how they feel and why.
Communicate with these kids, they don't sound all that bad. What would sound all that bad is dad and kids think you are the only one needing to compromise or that you need to totally accept the way it currently is or move out. If that's the case, then you have trouble and may need to rethink your relationship with FDH.
None of my business, but I find myself wondering why you moved in so soon before things were ready in home (basement rooms, what stays in home or leaves to make room for your things ect) or prior to working a few issues out ...I will assume you visited this home many times before moving in, saw what little kids did for household chores, hoarded possessions, had bad attitudes ect.
The biggest thing for you, is to be sure that dad backs you up and supports the changes you want made--are the changes you want the same as what FDH wants?. I hope you don't say dad 'left it all up to me to change house as I please and make houserules on my own'. FDH and you need to be in agreement in what you both want and you need to stand together in how the household is going to get there.
Something that I've read about Skids and I know is true in my case is this scenerio:
Mom/dad break up.
Kids take on more adult roles: (usually) boys become "man of the house" and girls become "caretakers". Kids are more "partners" than children.
Parent meets someone else and remarries.
Kid is then demoted to kid role.
Kid gets angry at new person for taking their place. Dad/mom doesn't confide in them anymore. New person is telling mom/dad how to raise them and mom/dad is acting like a parent again, except even stricter and with new rules that never seemed to apply.
Does any of this ring true?
Sharon, I'm a fairly new SM so I don't have much experience with the whole family dynamics thing at all yet; I just do my best and muddle through. I really think that this conversation would be best between your FDH and his kids, without you present. It could be a very touchy subject. I'll be completely honest, though; I still think it's not going to go over all that well. The fact remains that you are still going to try to prove that the marriage between their parents was always lacking something that your marriage, presumably, will not be. While this may very well be the case, it's still going to be a bit hard for kids, even older kids, to take right away.
Seriously, how many of us, even as adults, would not be upset to find out that we were conceived as a result of marital rape? One wants to think that at least at some point their parents had a good relationship.
Sorry I can't be more help.
Kids probably think that their parents marriage was sacramental and you are trying to tell them that it was not. you are trying to tell them that your marriage will be sacramental. HHmmm In a meanwhile you live in sin. Kids see it and know it. poor choices bad consequences.
another issue is: it is their house, you are a girlfriend you move in and make your rules, think how they feel
"I find it awful when people with kids get a marriage annulled."
me, too, kkny.
It's telling the children that they weren't conceived & born in a marriage.
Henry VIII couldn't get an annullment from his wife Catherine of Aragon, *which would have made their daughter Mary illegitimate*...
so he created a whole new church, gave himself a divorce, declared his daughter illegitimate, & married Anne Boleyn.
It embittered Mary so deeply that, when she became Queen, she burned many people at the stake for being Protestant.
There are so many views and feelings that go into step families, it's very hard not to be clouded by your own wishes and judgments. Sharon, it does take time to find some neutral ground and I don't know that it's ever easy. Dad has to be on board and set rules and expectations, they will never respect them coming from you. I've been with my DH and SK's for 14 yrs now and they do still live at home and are adults (22, 25). It's been a very tough road, not all bad mind you, but I also didn't understand some of the ways that we hurt each other and why. You're in a more unique situation in that they are already grown and have been set in their rules and situations long before you came along. I would try to look at the entire situation from a distance, define what it is you are really looking to happen and change, and then what it is that you may need to change or bend as well. Talk to FDH and see if he is willing to listen and try to make some fair adjustments with his children. I have a DH that would think or say certain things when we talked about the situations, but hardly ever followed through on it with the kids. A lot of times it felt like I was always the outsider and if I weren't there the kids would be much happier, and DH would not care what they did. But, we've overcome a lot and I still hope that with time things will work out the way they are supposed to and we will be proud and supportive of the "adults" they will be become. I wish you the best.

Niese struck out five and walked one in his 113-pitch effort, while also scoring in the third cracking a three-run double in the sixth.
Brandon Moss belted a two-run homer as the Oakland Athletics beat Jason Verlander and the Detroit Tigers 6-3 in a game which was halted in the sixth thanks to rain.
Atlanta Braves rookie Alex Wood only made it through 5 2/3 innings, but he blanked the Cleveland Indians long enough to earn his third win in a 2-0 victory.

The Washington Nationals beat the Miami Marlins 2-1, the Chicago White Sox were 4-3 winners over the Houston Astros and the Kansas City Royals saw off the Minnesota Twins 6-1.

Longtime Goffstown selectman won't seek re-election
"I remember when the covered bridge was in town. You had the town hall with the nice clock tower and the covered bridge across the street. It's the missing link between the river and the rail trail," he said.
"The town was facing the closure of the landfill along with pressure from the state for a solid waste plan. I was concerned that the low commercial and industrial tax base in Goffstown would attract any type of industry for its potential tax revenue, such as the large regional mass-burn incinerator that was proposed to the Planning Board by Wheelabrator," he said.
"We have not had a management letter from our auditors for three years. We have a top bond rating with a very low debt load," he said.
His goal of helping to maintain Goffstown's unique character as a safe place to live, work and raise a family has attracted many people and businesses to town. He said during his term the board has accomplished many of the things it set out to do, including building the transfer station in 1992, the relocation of Henry Bridge Road, establishing the Goffstown TV cable access channel, seeing the Board of Selectmen members increase from three to five members in 1994, fulfilling the adoption of ballot voting through SB2, bringing automated solid waste collection to town, rehabilitating the upper elementary school building into elderly housing, seeing the closure of the landfill and reusing the land for ball fields, and re-establishing a certified K-9 team.
"The town has an active solid waste/recycling committee and an active Economic Development Council that work with the selectmen to find solutions as issues come up in the future," he said.
"The town employees make the town work to serve the community. They are an asset to the town as they will go above and beyond when needed," he said.

Great value and wonderful place to stay. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the whole facility was very clean and nice, perfect for a long stay with a large eating area, large kitchen and public lounge areas. I like that breakfast was included. Incredibly convenient location to the train station and city center, and the tour buses also pick you up in front of the building for the day trip tours. I didn't know you could get a private room at a hostel but it was perfec - Anonymous
The location was excellent and the main reason for chosing this establishment - easy walking to Galway centre and pubs/restaurants. Parking on site was possible but tight. Room was small but typical of this area. Owners were friendly - offerred us a free G&T when observed us to be a little stressed on arrival. Breakfast good. - Anonymous
Absolutely everything! I am a travel agent in Ireland, so I know what to
expect and was not expecting a lot from a hostel. However, the reviews
looked good and price was great. I was so impressed by the staff, the
provision of towels, the location and most of all by the apartment that
we stayed in. Had great location and they even let us check out late as
they didn't have a booking the next day. - Anonymous
The staff were very friendly and were great at giving us tips on what to visit in Galway. The location of the hostel is excellent - Quay Street was an amazing place to be, especially with the fantastic weather while we were there! We would definitely return. - Anonymous

We know Cuomo is here in the state. But we have to ask, is he paying attention?
Editorials | March 5, 2015 >>
"Eva vs. public schools" Eva Moskowitz says her charter schools are public schools and so deserve public funding and public-school space. But she is closing her 32 schools on March 4 to bus students, staff and parents to Albany. Public schools would never close schools to use children as political pawns.
Editorials | February 5, 2015 >>
Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña's long-awaited announcement of the closing of the school networks created by Joel Klein is a milestone worthy of celebration. It is a decisive break with an organizational approach that, however well-meaning, was designed to fail.
Editorials | February 5, 2015 >>
Gov. Cuomo is so enthusiastic about charter schools that he wants to greatly expand their number even though he acknowledges that they are not accepting the same number of high-needs students as public schools.
Editorials | January 8, 2015 >>
A proven strategy: Teachers and parents know it, and research has proved it: Significantly smaller class sizes, particularly in the early grades, can lead to strong gains in achievement. The benefit is greatest for poor and minority children.

Cuomo's mistake: Gov. Andrew Cuomo seems to base his recent actions and statements about education on mistaken assumptions. He seems to think that New York parents support privatizing public education.

Nearly three out of four registered voters in New York State stayed home on Election Day. Turnout — or the lack of turnout — has consequences. We are now left with a state Senate obligated to financiers who support unfettered expansion of charter schools.

This is a battle over which party will control the state Senate. The outcome will greatly affect all of our state's public school educators, students and schools.
Editorials | November 6, 2014 >>
Public school educators know from both experience and common sense that when school administrators treat teachers as partners rather than adversaries, schools function more smoothly, staff morale is higher and the entire school community benefits.

Class size doesn't matter. That's a common theme among the so-called reformers who contend that an effective teacher can teach a class of any size, as if there is no difference in opportunities for teaching and learning in a class of 30 or 35 compared to one of 20 or 25.

The people who want to toss teacher tenure in the trash will tell you that they are fighting for the kids.

New Orleans' Recovery School District has just closed its last five public schools, making it the nation's first all-charter district. The city shows that unfettered growth of charter schools can lead to unequal acess and a loss of public oversight.

Many of us were haunted last fall by the story of Dasani — one of the 22,000 children living in homeless shelters in New York City, and a student at the McKinney Secondary School of the Arts in Brooklyn. The New York Times followed her and her family through bureaucratic indignities, the insecurity of shelters and temporary apartments, and other false starts. Her school was her anchor.

The proposed contract reflects the importance of having a negotiating partner in City Hall who understands and respects the work that UFT members do, both in and out of the classroom. It's a striking difference from the modus operandi of the previous administration.

Red Cross Restricted As Killing Continues In Syria
The Syrian government continued shelling the city Homs overnight. The latest United Nations report estimates 7,500 people have been killed since unrest began nearly a year ago. The government has also continued to refuse entry to the International Committee of the Red Cross. NPR's Kelly McEvers reports.

The story began in 1984 when TED was founded, sponsored by the Sapling Foundation. TED is a non-profit organization with the goal to gather people who are interested in the topics of Technology, Entertainment, and Design. Their slogan is "Ideas Worth Spreading". Through hard work and dedication the first annual TED conference was held in Monterey, California in 1990.
Throughout the years, the idea of TED expanded and continued to grow, offering people all over the world an opportunity to participate in the annual conferences as speakers. Each speaker is given the opportunity to spread their idea through an 18 minute talk under the umbrella's of the main TED topics – Technology, Entertainment, and Design.
As a result of the roaring success of TED, thoughts on establishing TEDx, as a local independently organized TED event began. After TED approved the establishment of TEDx, and administered licenses to aid the spreading of the TED message, independent TEDx organizations sprung throughout the world. TEDx allowed individuals to live and fully experience the world of TED in their local communities.
TEDx, x = independently organized event.In the spirit of ideas worth spreading,TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
TEDx was also spread to Egypt, and multiple organizations were created in different Egyptian cities. Among the Egyptian TEDx organizations is TEDxYouth@Alexandria, which got its license in 2011. They held an event under the theme "YOU"th Lead. It was very convenient during the year 2011, for it shed a light of importance on how crucial it is for the youth of Alexandria to start taking an initiative towards raising the community to higher levels. Dr. Fadel Soliman was one of the speakers during the 2011 event. In 2012, the main theme was "Fekr" and it was mainly dedicated towards generating and sharing ideas that create our community and can help motivate the youth. Last year, the 2013 event was under the theme Superheroes. The event took place after many hardships in the community, and the theme was dedicated to generating out hope and shedding light on "hidden heroes" within ourselves and within the community.
This year, the annual TEDxYouth@Alexandria event will be focused around the theme SPECTRUM. A spectrum is a band of colors, as seen in a rainbow.. The reason behind the choice of this year's theme is the many differences that join together to make our society. The color white splits into seven different colors, just as how the seven different colors join together to create one color. Through our differences we are create who we are as individuals, but that only leaves us with one color on the spectrum. Our differences come in many situations like our backgrounds in science, psychology, philosophy, medicine, and many other topics. Each and every one of us has a vision – a personal spectrum – regarding everything that we see, but at the end of the day, like all of the different colors, we complete each other. To achieve and maintain that final, full spectrum, image we have to have all of its components – the good and the bad. To gain this, the main step is to accept others and our differences.
Join TEDxYouth@Alexandria for the 4th annual event, which will be held at the Great Hall at Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

Pre-Photokina Coverage
Fred Singer
September 12, 2012
Two new camcorders from Sony include a world's first: The Sony NEX-VG900 is the first consumer camcorder with a full-frame 35mm sensor and interchangeable lenses. The Sony NEX-VG30H uses an APS-C sensor and adds several enhancements over hits predecessor, the Sony NEX-VG20H.
Note: Adorama is accepting pre-orders for both the Sony NEX-VG30H. Orders will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Credit cards won't be charged until orders ship.
Sony NEX-VG900 Key Features
Price: Approx. $3,300; available in from Adorama November
Sony NEX-VG30H Key Features
Price: Approx. $2,700 in kit with lens; body only, $1,800. Available from Adorama in November.
For details, read the unedited Sony press release:SONY INTRODUCES WORLD'S FIRST 35MM FULL-FRAME HANDYCAM® CAMCORDER Latest Interchangeable Lens Video Camera Allows Filmmakers Virtually Limitless Creative ExpressionSAN DIEGO, Sept. 11, 2012 – Today Sony Electronics unveiled the world's first consumer 35mm full-frame interchangeable lens camcorder - the new NEX-VG900 Handycam® camcorder - for expressive, powerful imaging. Sony's flagship model is joined by the NEX-VG30H which builds on the success of the NEX-VG20H model, sharing the same APS-C image sensor while adding several enhancements."Our new interchangeable lens camcorder offerings allow demanding videomakers the control and flexibility they need to bring their creative vision to life," said Hidenori Toyoda, director of the camcorder business at Sony Electronics. "We're excited to deliver revolutionary products like our full-frame model to the consumer market for unparalleled quality and value."NEX-VG900 Handycam® CamcorderRealizing supreme imaging quality and generous creative options, Sony's NEX-VG900 is the first Handycam camcorder with a 35mm sensor to fully exploit the artistic potential of interchangeable lenses. With a resolution of 24.3 effective megapixels, the camcorder's Exmor® CMOS sensor is around 40 times larger than its equivalent in standard consumer camcorders and more than twice the size of the APS-C sensor found in other interchangeable lens Handycam models. It captures full-frame, 24 megapixel still photos, with RAW format support for all the post-processing flexibility and quality expected from a pro-class DSLR camera. The sensor also allows the creation of distinctive 'bokeh' (defocus) effects; high sensitivity for extremely clear, low-noise images; and effortless reproduction of smooth, true tonal gradation.Beautiful, film-like results can be achieved by shooting video in 24p progressive mode with CinemaTone Gamma™ and CinemaTone Color™ presets to precisely control cinematic grading effects. Additionally, AVCHD™ version 2.0 standard 60p recording maximizes the range of creative options for movie-makers to explore. Even greater flexibility is provided by a choice of new Picture Effect modes, enabling easy creation of artistic 'in-camera' treatments. Whether you're shooting HD video or stills, Picture Effects add a new level of expression to content. Modes like Posterization, which creates a high contrast abstract look by heavily emphasizing primary colors or black and white; Retro Photo, which creates the look of an aged photo with sepia color tones and faded contrast; Pop Color, which produces a vivid look by emphasizing color tones; and Partial Color, which produces stunning monochrome photos containing a single designated color (red, green, blue or yellow) are just a few of the effects that make ordinary images and scenes come to life. A convenient seesaw lever allows slow, smooth zoom capability that is almost impossible to achieve when zooming manually, for added creative control and pro-quality imagery. Yielding impressive results, the lever adjusts optical zoom when using compatible E-mount lenses that feature a built-in zoom drive and controls electronic zoom when using the camcorder with fixed focal lenses. As an extra refinement, the NEX-VG900 camcorder switches automatically from full-frame operation to APS-C mode when an E-mount or A-mount DT lens is attached. This allows users to get the most out of their collection of lenses that are optimized for cameras with a smaller APS-C image sensor. The camcorder also comes supplied with the LA-EA3 adaptor that lets photographers use full-frame A-mount lenses at their designated focal length.Extensive manual settings and options combined with ergonomic refinements give videographers greater control and comfort. Aperture priority, shutter speed priority and manual exposure are all customizable while white balance can be adjusted to suit any scene. Similarly, iris, shutter speed, and gain adjustments can easily be made via direct access keys. And the camcorder's pro-style display peaking function is complemented by a one-touch focus magnification button on top of the grip.Serious videomakers will welcome the premium XGA OLED Tru-Finder™ EVF that offers high-contrast image monitoring with superb color rendition. Even in the most challenging lighting situations, being able to view your footage with the Tru-finder EVF ensures you're getting the best shots. Complementing the Tru-Finder EVF, an adjustable three-inch Xtra Fine LCD™ touch-panel monitor with LED backlighting offers Sony's unique technology for high contrast images with rich, deep blacks.Superior audio has always been a crucial part of the E-mount Handycam camcorder lineup. A unique Quad Capsule Spatial Array Microphone features four omnidirectional capsules that supports stereo or 5.1 channel surround. Recording levels are adjustable, with accurate visual confirmation provided by an audio level meter on the LCD display. There's also a headphone jack for direct monitoring of sounds being recorded. The new Multi Interface Shoe provides compatibility with accessories including the optional XLR-K1M adaptor kit that adds a high-quality mono shotgun mic and two pro-standard XLR connections.Handycam® NEX-VG30H/VG30Sharing many of the pro-oriented enhancements of the NEX-VG900 camcorder, the Handycam® NEX-VG30H model succeeds the acclaimed NEX-VG20H camcorder. With a resolution of 16.1 effective megapixels, the new camcorder's Exmor® APS HD CMOS sensor assures outstanding image quality with the family of interchangeable E-mount lenses. Like the NEX-VG900 camcorder, it can capture smooth, cinematic Full HD video footage at 60p, or 24p (progressive) frame rates and high-resolution still photos, supported by a wide range of artistic Picture Effect modes. It also features the same XGA OLED Tru-Finder™ EVF, comprehensive manual controls and the same seesaw style zoom lever as the NEX-VG900 model.The NEX-VG30H camcorder comes supplied as a kit with the new SELP-18200 E PZ 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 Power Zoom lens that provides a versatile range from wide angle to telephoto. Offering smooth, quiet Auto Focus operation and Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization, the lens also features an additional switch on the barrel for further controlling zoom speeds.The new camcorders are compatible with Sony's Memory Stick PRO-HG™ Duo HX series as well as Sony's full line of SD memory cards. Available in capacities up to 32 GB, both media enable necessary transfer speeds for stable and optimal performance of Sony hardware features such as full HD movie shooting. Pricing and AvailabilityThe Handycam NEX-VG900 35mm full-frame camcorder (body-only) with LA-EA3 adaptor will be available in November for about $3,300 and the NEX-VG30H Full HD E-mount system camcorder will also be available at that time for $2,700. A body-only version, the NEX-VG30 model, will be available for $1,800.
