Activision has two HUGE games out this year based on blockbuster franchises that everyone knows and loves. The Amazing Spider-Man Video Game lets you go beyond this summer's feature film and find out what happens next as Spider-Man returns to Manhattan.

Stuart Goulden enjoys an unusually close relationship with his customers. His office refurbishment was funded by them and they sit all around him. The managing director and his colleagues at One&Other, a local media company, invite readers to work in their office, a converted chapel in York that more than 60 readers helped to renovate via crowdfunding. "We have an open newsroom policy and actively encourage the local community to come in. There are 15 or more people in the office right now. They are people with an interest in writing, illustrators, photographers and other co-creaters. They do it for a mixture of reasons: because they love the city, have a talent that is unused or they want to get experience." It is all about communication, something at the heart of good customer service, and small companies are finding innovative ways to make sure tha
When Rob Blythe started his business, Instant Impact, he knew what he wanted to do: recruit university students in their penultimate year to internships with small businesses, which would hire the graduates the following year. Six months later, he had to change tack completely. "We modelled it on what the big graduate employers do. But small businesses don't want to take on interns in the summer — that is their quietest time — and they don't want to wait until September to hire people when they need them immediately. What we were pitching wasn't what our customers wanted." Within six months Mr Blythe and his colleagues had a new business model. "Now we focus on graduates all-year-round and it is much more successful." Lucy Ames had a similar experience when she set up her freelance painting business. The former business analyst held her first sale at her for
The Olympics proved a mixed bag for small businesses, with some scoring a straight gold while others have been left playing catch-up. Samuel Martin, the co-founder and managing director of Quintessentially People, a head-hunting service for private staff, had a successful Games. He found that requests for bodyguards rose by 150 per cent, for private chefs and chauffeurs by 100 per cent and for personal assistants by 50 per cent. This didn't just happen. Like the athletes, he prepared for the big event. He contacted the company's international clients in the build-up to the Games and marketed to prospective clients. And it paid off. "We probably gained 10 to 15 really high-profile new clients and at least 50 per cent have said that they intend to use us again," he explained. It wasn't all plain sailing though, with about 10 Chinese clients cancelling at th

Olympics revamp, doping and West Ham flying high
This Tuesday's URN Sport saw David joined by Paddy, Adam and James. As the IOC announced plans to drop its 28-sport cap on the summer Games and to make the bidding process cheaper for potential host cities, the panel offered their thoughts on the revamp.
The boys also discussed doping after a German television documentary claimed to present evidence of systematic doping and corruption in Russian sport. The Russia Athletics Federation's president has rejected those claims as "a pack of lies".
As the show moved on to focus on the weekend's Premier League results, West Ham's start to the season - and how sustainable it is - was debated.
Finally, the panel chatted about Manchester City and Liverpool ahead of their midweek Champions League clashes.
URN Sport will be back this Thursday from 6pm with all the latest university sports coverage.

Gulu, Uganda, June 05, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The entrepreneurs and tech experts that brought you Inveneo announce the launch of their new for-profit start-up, Volo, that is accelerating high-quality broadband Internet access in emerging markets.
Built based on years of field experience and designed in Silicon Valley, Volo offers a cloud-based automation platform for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to deploy fixed wireless broadband services using radically low-cost last-mile Wi-Fi networking technologies.
Volo's vendor-neutral platform addresses the true challenges and needs of ISPs in emerging economies making it easy and profitable for them to deliver and support affordable high-speed Internet access to the next billion users.
"Just like any business in North America or Europe, businesses in Africa and other emerging markets want to be profitable, and provide the best products and services to their clients. While much of Africa has some Internet access, what's missing is reliable, fast Internet connections so companies can use the high-bandwidth products that make them more competitive," explains Volo investor and telecom entrepreneur Jim Forster. "Volo is enabling ISPs to use radically lower cost technologies to deliver high-speed fixed broadband, especially for small and medium enterprises, complementing mobile broadband for consumers. Higher bandwidth equals higher revenue potential."
Volo's first customer will launch a new ISP in Northern Uganda to provide Silicon Valley quality, high-speed broadband service for businesses and organizations in and around Gulu, Uganda. As a result, these organizations and their users will have fast (1Mb or more) Internet access and the ability to access cloud-based business productivity tools (such as Google Apps, Microsoft Office 365, Salesforce, Quickbooks Online and YouTube) at prices and speeds that mobile companies simply can't offer.
"With Volo, the future of wireless is here. Until recently, building infrastructure was expensive and time-consuming, making it hard for ISPs to scale and leaving businesses in emerging markets stuck with glacially slow connection speeds," says Volo co-founder and CEO Mark Summer. "Now, Volo is delivering the tools and expertise so that ISPs can deploy broadband services in weeks, maintain lower operational costs and scale more effectively."
Why now?
Internet access is skyrocketing. According to The Cisco® Visual Networking Index (VNI) Forecast (2012-2017) almost 50% of the world's population is projected to be online by 2017 and most of that growth is coming from emerging markets. Both businesses and consumers are coming online and using more data services than ever. Despite this growth, the infrastructure to support this increase in traffic, particularly for high-speed users, is under-developed -- if available at all -- in most regions of emerging markets. Unchanged, this means new users in emerging markets will likely be unable to have the fast connections to access the dynamic cloud-based tools necessary to do business.
This market gap, combined with unprecedented regulatory reforms driving better access to fiber and lower market entry costs and new carrier grade last-mile Wi-Fi technologies makes it easier to start and scale broadband ISPs today than ever before.
Leveraging this transformation in the market, Volo is making it possible for ISPs to launch high-speed Internet services in weeks, not months, at a fraction of the cost of their competitors. As a result, Volo's ISP customers will be more profitable, scalable and have more successful business structures.
How Volo Works
Volo's cloud-based platform, to be released later this year, automates the ability for ISPs to deploy fixed wireless broadband using radically low-cost last-mile Wi-Fi networking technologies. This integrated software platform simplifies how ISPs design and manage fixed wireless networks, set up and provision services, and serve and bill customers. The platform incorporates best practice workflows for emerging markets designed by Volo's expert team and shaped by years of field experience. With features that provide complete operational awareness, Volo's ISP customers can manage operational costs and deliver an amazing customer experience.

By Liz McMillan Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys. May. 3, 2015 09:45 AM EDT Reads: 5,699 |

Body found in woodland believed to be six-year-old girl who went missing from her trailer park home at the weekend
- K9 team led police to remains close to where Jenise Wright disappeared
- Six-year-old, last seen Saturday night, was reported missing on Sunday
A body has been found in woodland close to the Washington home of a six-year-old girl who went missing at the weekend.
The remains, which were discovered by a K9 team at about 11.30am on Thursday, have not been formally identified, but police believe they belong to Jenise Wright.
After her parents reported her missing on Sunday, more than 100 people, including a FBI team, had joined the search for Jenise.
Missing: Jenise Wright disappeared at the weekend. Police believe a body found in woodland may be her
No arrests have been made, and the cause of death has not been revealed but formal identification and results from the autopsy are expected to take place Friday.
In a statement, the sheriff's department said a coroner will make official confirmation but 'it appears that the body is that of Jenise.'
At a press conference on Thursday afternoon, Kitsap County Sheriff's Deputy Scott Wilson said: 'This is going to be a criminal investigation. There's no doubt about that.'
Wilson confirmed that police were waiting on
the autopsy results to determine the manner of death, but added: 'We
suspect that she just did not go off by herself and fall into some
bushes and die.'
Dozens of officers from more than 15 law enforcement agencies had been involved in a door-to-door search at the mobile home park where Jenise lived near Bremerton, on the west side of Puget Sound, across from Seattle.
She was last seen when she went to bed Saturday night. Her parents waited a day before calling for help because they say the girl had wandered around the Steele Creek Mobile Home Park on her own in the past.
Loss: Jenise was last seen on Saturday night, in her trailer park home in Washington
Search: Police had gone door-to-door looking for Jenise. A body was found in woodland on Thursday morning
Wilson had said the family felt it was relatively safe for Jenise, who was described as being outgoing and unafraid to talk to anyone, because the mobile home park is fenced
Police have taken surveillance video from nearby businesses and checked in with sex offenders in the county.
After the search began for Jenise, state child welfare workers removed two other children, an eight-year-old boy and 12-year-old girl, from the home.
Court records show Jenise Wright's father, James Wright, was charged more than a decade ago with molesting two girls, ages 8 and 15.
He eventually pleaded guilty in Whatcom County Superior Court in December 2001 to a misdemeanor assault charge related to the older girl.
It was not immediately clear why the molestation charges were dropped. Prosecutors there did not return calls from the Associated Press.
Confident: Jenise was described by her family as an outgoing child who would talk to anyone
A judge in Whatcom County Superior Court sentenced Wright to a year in jail but suspended the entire jail term on the condition that he follow certain conditions, including paying fees.
Wilson said at a news briefing on Wednesday that authorities were aware of the past charge against the father, but that officers are focused on finding the girl.
'That has nothing to do with this investigation right now,' he said.
Authorities searched all 103 homes and every outbuilding and vehicle in the Steele Creek Mobile Home Park.

Louisiana-based boat manufacturer Metal Shark Aluminum Boats is significantly expanding its operations and has acquired a large waterfront parcel to accommodate the production of larger vessels.
The builder has signaled its entry into the shipbuilding sector with the purchase of a 25-acre waterfront tract located in South Louisiana's St. Mary Parish. Plans for the new facility call for over 60,000 square feet of manufacturing space, with approximately 100 new employees expected to be hired within the next few years. Infrastructure improvements have commenced at the site, which Metal Shark is transforming into a shipyard capable of supporting aluminum and steel shipbuilding operations for vessels up to and exceeding 250' in length.
Construction of Metal Shark's 45', 55', and 75' vessels currently on order and in various stages of assembly at the company's headquarters in Jeanerette, Louisiana will be transferred to the new yard, where production volume will increase as new, larger offshore vessels are added to the company's expanding lineup.
Metal Shark vessels 40' and under, including several models being built under multi-year contracts for the U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy, will continue to be produced at the company's existing facility in Jeanerette. This facility, which was expanded in 2011 and again in 2012, will be enlarged once more to accommodate present and future growth. All told, these moves represent an investment of more than ten million dollars by the company.
"Metal Shark has grown exponentially over the past several years, but the size and scope of this newest expansion will completely redefine the company and elevate our role in the marketplace," said Chris Allard, president of Metal Shark. "While we are expanding our facilities, we are at the same time actively expanding our in-house engineering staff and our in-field training and support team to keep pace with our ambitious slate of new builds."
In addition to the facilities and workforce upgrades, Metal Shark has also announced substantial investments in new designs. The company's proven Defiant class of v-bottom pilothouse vessels, with parent craft in service with various military and law enforcement entities worldwide, has been expanded to include vessels up to 100'.
Additionally, the company has announced a new "Endurance" class of pilothouse catamaran vessels. These long range offshore vessels are characterized by their wide beams, efficient hulls, and many crew-friendly features shared with existing Metal Shark models, such as "pillarless glass" pilothouse windshields that increase visibility and operational safety by drastically reducing the dangerous blind spots associated with conventional pilothouse vessels.
All Defiant and Endurance-class vessels may be fully customized to meet a wide range of mission profiles including military; law enforcement; fire rescue; chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosive (CBRNE) disaster response; and pilot operations.
While Metal Shark caters to a global customer base and supports a fleet of vessels in service worldwide, the company is quick to credit its Louisiana roots as a key component of its ongoing success. "Metal Shark has always enjoyed strong support from the State of Louisiana and South Louisiana," stated Chris Allard. "This long-standing cooperation and pro-business attitude, combined with the region's skilled workforce, were key factors in our decision making process for this expansion. Louisiana provides the perfect climate for American manufacturing and we're proud to continue our investment here."

To get upset over meeting with DS's teacher today
(84 Posts)DS's reception teacher asked to speak to me today about DS (5). Apparently a few weeks ago a parent complained to the school that DS had taught their child to say 'silly bastard'. School gave DS benefit of the doubt, not having overheard anything themselves, said nothing to me, and gave the whole school a talk about not using bad language.
Parents went into school on Monday and said they had witnessed my DS telling their child at a birthday party on Saturday to say 'silly bastard'. Teacher has told me they need to take it up with DS and inform me what's happening.
Feel so upset by it all. AIBU to get so upset over first 'called in to the school' offence? Anyone else feel like shit when their DC get into trouble?
But is it true?? You haven't said. Where did he pick up such language? I'd be mortified if that was me.
Not sure what your upset is over - that he's being accused of something he didn't do, that he knows such language at 5, or that it's embarrassing being called in to school?
Did Your ds say it?
or are you upset because you feel the school/parents are overreacting?
I wouldn't worry of course its embarrassing and upsetting.
But if its true your son needs telling doesn't he, they all pick up language though...
Ours picked up FFS when were having a tough time and said it too often we were able to simply stop saying it and it went away.
dont worry!
I haven't grilled spoken to him yet. Am mortified! No idea where he heard it...not something we've ever said at home. Teacher said he was saying it in an accent so thought he had heard it on TV possibly.
Well if they heard him say it i guess they are entitled to be bit annoyed. Does seem a bit ott, as not on school premises that time.
You are being a bit sensitive.
But did he say it? And if he did he's obviously got it from somewhere....
Is it the same parents OP? That complained last time, and again after the party?
You should probably explain what it means and why it causes offence. It was enough to cause a fight at my school.
It seems like a major issue at the time, I can understand you feeling upset and also worried how the other parents react. In a few weeks time you will probably look back, and maybe not laugh, but realise it wasn't the end of the world. Your son is repeating something he's heard (could have heard it anywhere) but really is too young to understand what he's saying, so it's good the school are clamping done on it. Just make sure he knows it isn't appropriate language to use and why he's in trouble for it.
You should probably explain what it means and why it causes offence. It was enough to cause a fight at my school.
It's better for you to be upset then to be the sort of parent that couldn't care less when their child swears. It's right that you feel like shit tbh, I would have complained if I were the other child's parent too.
You should take it seriously, and you shouldn't be allowing a reception age child to watch TV programmes that contain that sort of language.
Excellent advice everyone. Thanks. Am slapping myself for being oversensitive.
It was the same parents, yes, fluffyraggies
Will of course bollock speak to DS and explain why he shouldn't be using such, or any, bad language.
I can understand you feeling upset, but yo really shouldn't be. Next year and later in life you will laugh at this. You will probably call him a silly bastard and laugh about how he was a little rascal.
Just explain to him that its a word for adults and he is not to use it. Its no big deal, kids learn swear words all the time, they just need to know they aren't to use them.
Tbh, the other parents sound really OTT. I think an eye roll and dealing with their own child's behaviour would have sufficed.
The thing is that schools are meant to take everything very seriously, but what you will learn is they will talk to you about the lunchbox issue in the same 'doom and gloom this is the worst parenting they have ever seen' type of language and tone as they do an issue which is genuinely really serious. Use your own judgement and deal with it in a way that you see fit, you don't need to have your mood or approach dictated by the school.
I think the parents are a teeny bit over the top complaining to the school, I'd have just told my child it was unacceptable language and left it at that. But seeing as they have you need to make it clear to the school you are supporting them.
It's fine to feel upset but how you handle this is important. The school aren't telling you off, they are asking for your support.
Have a word with your son about it so he doesn't do it again (hopefully). Next time you see the teacher thank them for informing you and tell them that you have had words with him.
That way, the school are reassured that you will work with them to support your son through school.
Honestly who complains to the school about this sort of thing? You're embarrassed now but in the scheme of things it really is no biggie. Kids repeat all sorts of stuff they hear all the time - from people on the streets, the supermarket, from older kids. You tell them they shouldn't use bad language and if my Ds is anything to go by they then turn into the swear police. 'Mummy you used a bad word. That's not allowed'
Thanks MamaPain and great advice Slothful to go back to the teacher and have a quick word. Definitely don't want them to think I don't care.
Hang on, why are the other parents telling the school about something your DS did out of school? That's odd.
tobiasfunke it had never occurred to me to complain to the school when DS came home saying something inappropriate. I have just told him not to repeat things as they've come up.
It's a very small class, and not all the kids were at the party on Saturday (I was there) so going to be awkward at the gates for awhile.
schools alwaysseem to be massively OTT about swearing and almost all kids use a bad word they've overheard. Show me a parent who has never used a swear word within earshot of their parent and I'll show you a saint.
earshot of their child
gimcrack I've no idea. DS started in September and is my eldest so the whole school minefield is new to me.
Christ WooWooOwl, you need to get a grip. Nowhere has the OP said she has let her son watch age inappropriate programmes, he could have seen it at nannys house, a friends house etc.
And its right she should feel like shit because a child has repeated something he has heard and probably doesnt know the meaning of it? Dont be so stupid.
And as for the parents complaining to the school - pathetic. Must bigger things to get worked up about.

Yemen's deputy prime minister says the Nigerian accused of trying to blow up a U.S. passenger jet on Christmas met here with a radical American-Yemeni cleric linked to al-Qaida and the alleged Fort Hood shooter.
Rashad al-Alimi says Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab met with cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, and other al-Qaida leaders in Yemen.
Al-Awlaki, a cleric popular among al-Qaida sympathizers for his calls for jihad, or holy war, became notorious in the U.S. after he exchanged dozens of e-mails with U.S. Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who allegedly killed 13 people in a mass shooting at the Fort Hood, Texas Army post on Nov. 5.
Al-Alimi says Yemen has arrested a number of al-Qaida elements who had contacts with the Abdulmutallab and is interrogating them.

Seeking funding for Digital upgrade to Industry Compliance of Cinema equipment and support systems including Sound System and Screen. Read more
About this project
Tampa's Oldest Independent First Run Single Screen Cinema
The Tampa Pitcher Show first opened our doors in 1982 as a single screen independent theater. We now exhibit first-run movies and have created jobs for hundreds of local teenagers and adults in our 30+ years in business in our community and hope to continue to do so.
Did you know the Tampa Pitcher Show is a big supporter of independent film, especially movies made in the Tampa Bay area? We also have showcased cultural events such as Art Gallery Exhibitions and Theatrical Presentations, and have participated in community events, including Life Amplified "Salutes", a fundraiser for purchasing aid dogs for disabled American Veterans. We have always felt the community has supported us and feel it is necessary for local businesses to be part of the community. Our other community efforts partnered us with Joshua House and many Tampa Bay area Churches and Charity Fundraisers.
Being an Independent Cinema we are being forced by Hollywood to change from a 35mm film format to Digital Format by the end of the 2013 or we will no longer be able to show movies. We hope to use Kickstarter as a fundraising tool to keep us running and being a part of the community.
Movies have been produced on film for over 100 years. However, Hollywood and all the major movie studios have determined that they will only make movies in digital format beginning in 2014. This will substantially reduce their production and distribution costs. It will also provide a better movie-going experience in both picture and sound quality. No more sound pops, scratched film, or missing frames. Just a brighter, sharper picture and incredible state of the art surround sound.This sounds wonderful doesn't it?
Unfortunately, it also means that Tampa Pitcher Show will have to "Go Digital or Go Dark." Many independent Cinemas across the country have closed their doors as a result. The new digital projectors and sound equipment required for the conversion to digital movies are very expensive and beyond our budget. We may be able to work out a loan arrangement eventually but the best option is still to have the fans of the Cinema help us with this Kickstarter.
Risks and challenges
The film studios have offered major multiplex theaters substantial subsidies to make the conversion to the digital projection system, but independent single screen theaters like ours were not eligible for such assistance.
We have worked very hard to maintain TPS over our 30+ years in Carrollwood and it would be a shame if unaffordable technology, rather than dedication and hard work, should deprive our residents and visitors of a gathering place to experience movies and other forms of art.
During this conversion we will replace our screen, projector and sound system. We will do everything possible to make this project work so we will remain open during this conversion as not to disrupt your movie going experience.
Have a question? If the info above doesn't help, you can ask the project creator directly.

I hate it. This person killed people. We kill them. We are showing them that it is ok. We are setting a bad example for them!
With death, it's quick and easy to get it over with. If you stay in prison, you could get raped, get hurt, and a lot more. If anything you would want them to suffer more in prison. To have them sit there in their prison cell eating nasty food, being afraid that they may get hurt, get a disease. Going to prison is a punishment. As I may quote David Berkowitz " I would much rather have the death penalty. To get it over with rather than sit in prison." Wouldn't we want them to suffer more? To teach them that you should never kill?
Thank you! People don't understand my answer......
it gets people out of the system... thats the only upside. other wise murder for murder a bad thing.
mixed feelings...and we don't have them in my country either.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Criminals should be able to choose it if they don't think their life is worth living in our society but anyone that chooses to live should be encouraged to make up for a life lost in any way they can. For example labor camps that send the profit to the victims families would be a good idea. You can't put a value on a life but an indeterminate amount of equally divided money is a start.
Over my dead body.They would have to kill me to execute me !
fry 'em (yes, I know they don't actually fry them).
Same as it's always been. I'm totally against it. Say it with me..."Murder is murder".
Better than the death penalty....<br />
Make their ex the warden
We don`t got one where I`m from and everythings okay
Where are you from?
You could say I`m Americas hat.
btw I think we should educate criminals not punish them.
