CANNES, France (AP) — Just what film directors Joel and Ethan Coen are thinking is a question that has long bedeviled moviegoers. Now they have the Cannes Film Festival on pins and needles, too.
Figures due on Friday from the United States that will almost certainly show the world's biggest economy contracted last quarter are also likely to feature. "With the negotiations between Greece and the rest of the euro area at an impasse, an impatient German Chancellor Merkel has warned that an agreement must be reached before the end of the month," said Thomas Costerg, senior economist at Standard Chartered. Greece cannot make a payment to the International Monetary Fund due on June 5 unless foreign lenders disburse more aid, a senior ruling party lawmaker said on Wednesday, the latest warning from Athens it is on the verge of default.

Rep. Marcy Kaptur, D-Ohio, and Rep. Gene Green, D-Texas, both easily passed the test, ABC reported, but many lawmakers begged off when asked to display their singing talents.
"I can probably sing it with a group," said Rep. Robert Aderholt, R-Ala. "If I was in a group, I would sing it."
Rep. Ron Kind, D-Wis., gave the excuse that his singing voice was "not that good."
Rep. Robert Ney, R-Ohio, said he was busy talking to his wife on the phone while Rep. Jim Costa, D-Calif., and Rep. Paul Gillmor, R-Ohio, both had other places to be, ABC said.
On the Senate side, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., both passed the test with flying colors.
Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., had to go to lunch and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, begged off due to a bad singing voice.
Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-S.C., balked as well, saying, "I am like 61 percent of Americans. If I had to get up and recite the national anthem, I would fail miserably."

Friendly rivals, Biden and Clinton share spotlight
"There's no woman like Hillary Clinton," Biden chimed in.
A private citizen after resigning as the top U.S. diplomat, Clinton has stepped back onto the national stage recently, appearing refreshed and energized as she speaks before groups that include key Democratic constituencies, including college students, black women, and the gay and lesbian community.
Biden, meanwhile, has become the president's most visible surrogate, heading up efforts to curb gun violence, promoting trade and infrastructure, and traveling the globe to meet with world leaders. He also has kept up his profile in Democratic circles. An aggressive schedule of fundraising and campaigning has taken him repeatedly to important presidential primary states like Iowa and South Carolina.
Although well-liked in New Hampshire - another key primary state - Biden would have a tough time competing with the draw of potentially electing the first female president, said Sylvia Larsen, the Democratic leader in the New Hampshire state senate who advised Clinton's 2008 campaign there.
"I don't think the cadre of folks who would walk the plank for him are as strong as they are for Hillary," she said.
That Biden may have to wait for Clinton to announce her plans before assessing the viability of his own candidacy is not lost on the vice president's team. But John Marttila, who has advised Biden throughout his political career, said both Clinton and Biden are in the enviable position of being able to lay the groundwork early without having to commit now.
"It's just due diligence for any prospective future campaign," Marttila said. "For Biden, this is just like fun. I know he enjoys campaigning very much."
Obama inevitably finds himself in the middle. The president has taken pains not to look ahead to 2016, wary of hastening his own lame-duck status. A joint interview with Clinton on CBS' "60 Minutes" at the end of her tenure as secretary of state stoked speculation that he was tipping his hand about his preferred successor - a move that irked some in Biden's circle.
"We are tremendously lucky to have an incredible former secretary of state, who couldn't have served me better, and an incredible vice president, who couldn't be serving me better," Obama said this month in another interview. "I just got re-elected last year. My focus is on the American people right now. I'll let you guys worry about the politics."

Time value of money:
The time value of money is the concept that states that, the money received today is worth more than the money received in the future. It is also called as present value (PV) of money.
Future value:
The future value is the value of cash flow at a point of time in future. The compounding technique is used to get the future value.
The compound interest is the amount of interest earned on reinvestment of an interest for specific period.
When an investor earns interest on investment and reinvests it, then an investor earns interest on the principal investment and reinvested interest for specific period.
Present value:
The present value is the value of future amount at the current time of that time point.
The discounting is the technique used in the time value of money to find the present value (PV) of future amount. The PV at a time zero on the time line is calculated in the discounting technique.
The time value of money is very important to an individual's personal and professional life. Without considering time value money, one cannot take a decision regarding the present or future condition.
Describe a decision one might face in the future that will require him/her to consider the future value of money received (or invested):
Answer may vary among persons, but the following solution is based on one example.
Mr X has passed his high school this year and plans to join his graduation. He is having a sibling (Y) who is doing his final year of graduation and the family situation of his is such that, they cannot afford fees for both of them simultaneously.
Since Mr Y is in the final year, he doesn't want to discontinue at this point of time. On seeing this situation Mr X decides to go for a job to save some money, thus that next year he can join in a good college for his graduation.
Here, compare the concept of time value of money that, "a dollar received today is worth more than a dollar received in the future" with the situation of Mr. X. He prefers to earn and save money, which is worth more than opting for graduation at this point of time, as whatever money he earns during this year can be utilized for his graduation in the next year. By earning money today, he can enrol in a good college for his graduation, which will be supported by his sibling. A graduation from a good university will brighten the future.
If the money required by Mr X to join in college in next year is $2,200 and he can earn 10% annual interest. The amount that should be deposited by him to make $2,200, can be calculated by using the future value formula given below:
Substitute $2,200 for future value, 0.10 for interest rate, and 1 for number of years in the above formula to get present value:
Therefore, Mr X should deposit $2,000 in the current year to get $2,200.
If he does not have $2,000, he should borrow $2,000 at an interest rate, which is much lower than the interest that he can get and the difference between these two rates should be 10%. For example, if he borrows at 5% interest rate, he should deposit the money at 15% interest rate.
Therefore, by observing the above example, conclude that the time value of money is relevant to personal life as well as professional life.

"Protect your Android from external threats"
Reviewed by Emmanuel Lund / Nov 28, 2014
Dr. Web Anti-virus Light is an antivirus for Android
This is Dr. Web Anti-Virus, the paid version ($4.99) of this app, with no ads and extra features: black list, more settings, constant updates and much more.
Although there haven't been reported too many cases of malware on Android, it seems that the need of security on a open-source OS is in the air. Dr. Web Anti-virus Light comes to cover that need with a simple but intuitive Anti-Virus for Android.
First thing you have to do is enable SpiGuard to activate protecting warnings. Dr. Web will notify you when a threat is detected. You can set notifications from preferences.
It works in two different ways: first, you can scan by yourself your device. There are three options: quick scan, full scan (takes longer and scans even the hidden and system files) or the custom scan (select what you want to be scanned). There's also an automatic scan: every time you install a new app, Dr. Web will automatically look for threats. What's more, you can schedule scanners in order to keep your device safe of malware.
Finally, Dr. Web tracks statistics about malware detected, apps installed and scans done. It's better if you keep Dr. Web up-to-date from the tab "update". An Anti-virus is more effective if it has info about the last threats and malware.
We don't think that an anti-virus is something really needed so far. Anyway, it's a security measure that makes no damage if it doesn't kill your battery life. Dr. Web works pretty well in this sense.
Use Dr.Web for Android free of charge!
Purchase Dr.Web Security Space or Dr.Web Anti-virus.

"It is news to you that this is a fixed league?" he asked at a Hearts shareholders meeting. "Rangers and Celtic win titles by 30 points. How many times this season have we been screwed by referees? We ask you to help us to fight this system that doesn't allow a smaller club to grow. If a club starts to grow, they use all mechanisms to pull it down. Vladimir would not waste his money in this club if he did not believe things could be changed."
One shareholder was labelled a "provocateur" for questioning the Hearts board's recent decision-making.
"Go read newspapers, that is where you get your opinions from," said Romanov.

Mama to Marcus (1/05) and Arianna (3/10).
Grace - wife to Jeff and mama to Nigella (11/08) and Orrin (01/10)- expecting a new addition (05/12)! Life is a whirlwind, but I'm learning to enjoy the ride!
Plus, I heard about a study showing a link between increased risk of miscarriage and as little as two cups of coffee per day during the first trimester, so I avoided it completely during the first trimester.
Now that I'm in my second trimester, I'm more comfortable with a little caffeine now and then. Coffee smells horrible to me now, but I'll let myself have 1-2 glasses of tea or soda, spaced out through the day so baby doesn't get a big jolt.

Solar Kettle boils water using the Sun's rays
May 22, 2013
Developed by British engineer James Bentham, the Solar Kettle can boil water simply by using sunlight. The portable thermos-like product uses a special thermal technology to boil water without the need for any power input, thus making it ideal for camping, picnics and outdoor activities.
The Solar Kettle features a thermal vacuum tube which absorbs and converts the sun's rays into heat. Two exterior reflectors open out to maximize the amount of solar energy obtained, enabling the water inside to boil without the need for any further energy supply. The kettle also comes with an built-in stand so that it can be positioned to face the sun, along with a thermometer located on the lid, which allows the user to monitor the temperature of the contents.
Similar to other insulated products, the Solar Kettle's exterior remains cool to touch, even when the contents are at the boiling point, reducing the risk of burns to the user. It can also be used to store hot water for long periods of time.
Weighing 1.2 kilograms (2.6 lb) when empty, the Solar Kettle is light enough to carry in a backpack but is considerably heavier than your average thermos (mine weighs 300 grams/0.65 lb). The kettle can hold 500 ml (17 oz) of water, which will take approximately two hours to boil from cold. This timing can vary depending on the amount of sun available, and further reduced if the water has been previously heated.
In survival situations, the kettle can be used to sterilize river water or snow and purify it for drinking. It can also desalinate sea water to produced clean water that is safe to drink.
In everyday situations, the Solar Kettle can be used to boil enough water to make three cups of tea, coffee, hot chocolate or soup and even a boiled egg or two. The video below demonstrates a couple of campers boiling two cups of tea and an egg with the Solar Kettle.
UK company Contemporary Energy is currently taking online orders for the Solar Kettle, which is priced at approximately US$53.

And on a cloudy day, it won't boil at all. Rubbish!Jon A.
@Jon A.
And on a rainy day my socks will get wet!Bryant Drake
I think that is really cool and green. I think it would be very useful for times when the power is out. I think it would be also very good for camping or trips.BigGoofyGuy
Given the high weight, tiny capacity, and long heating time it is not even remotely practical.Slowburn
it takes an electric kettle 2 minutes to boil that much water with 2000 watts, so if you had a bike powered electric generator it would take 20 minutes on slow pedal speed, or 10 going like a crazy guy. so in 2 hours 120 minutes, it's about... 30 watts...
a 30 watts thin film solar panel is about 30 pounds, and it's alot more versatile, and same as a couple of a2 sheets of paper. and it's also lighter.
interesting.Ooh Bertie
Designed by a British engineer, it should generally have a good chance of working in sunnier climes! I wonder though, if filled right up for use on a very sunny day, is there any risk of steam pressure expelling contents when opened? Or is there an 'over-pressure' valve incorporated? I agree it seems a bit heavy for hikers though, they are usually worrying about every little gram.The Skud
Great design concept. But, 500 ml in 2 hours is too little and too long. And this is solar powered so you will have to be stationary for 2 hours. Self defeating.Nantha
I am planning a climb up an 8000 meter mountain this summer. I was thinking that this might be a good solution to the drudgery of having to spend half the day melting ice for drinking.
Obviously, this guy got an engineering degree without having learned anything about engineering. If this device covered a MUCH larger area with something light like mylar, it might actually have some potential. As it is, it is an embarrassing failure.mashimisha
I think it's a great idea. I'd love to see how efficient it is and if it could be integrated into solar hot water for the home. Humans are very wasteful with energy, I'd love to see more environmentally friendly solutions like this. Obviously this wouldn't suit all climates, and latitudes but there are many in which this would work extremely well.Australian
Interesting title but dissapointing product. I mean, my respect for the designer but two hours for boiling point it is too much time for an emergency. Well, probably in my my country with a 34 celsius average temperature work faster, or in africa.CaLopez2012
I have to agree with the other comments, to little volume and to slow to heat it up, its just not practical. I think the design is very simple, 2 reflectors and a vacuum tube to contain the heat?
I think the idea of a solar kettle is good but it needs to be made out of more technologically advanced materials that are light weight that reflect more(or the same) amount of light.
Need more light reflecting areas that could expand, like a lightweight reflective material that could roll up.Nathaneal Blemings
Another great British invention that needs the Japanese to perfect it & the Chinese to copy it for half the price.Glen Aldridge
This is a brilliant fundamental idea badly in need of a redesign! It needs more mirror surface and that surface needs to be shaped in an ellipse.Timothy Rohde
This is not an especially new idea, just a limited implementation of someone else's great idea. Some years ago I saw several variations of this where the solar concentrator was rather like an umbrella and since it had a much larger reflector the cooking time measured in minutes not hours. This would be greatly improved with a collapsible mylar reflector modelled either like an umbrella, or a trough mirror, etc. There are many ways to do this none of which are particularly novel but are still great solutions. And, yup, the Chinese will steal & reverse engineer this and find some place to make it at slave labour rates & conditions whereupon it will be shipped to stores where local retail serfs will be paid squat to put stuff on shelves.StWils
I saw the product at a show at a world festival here LA and was impressed. For us, it makes perfect sense with the weather we have. They did tell us that is works with clouds in sky, although I'd like to verify that. All in all, it's a great entrepreneur's product and I wish them well.33Nick
I think it is a great idea, just ordered one, and I'm thinking of hanging it in my office window that faces the morning sun.. get to office and hot water is ready to make tea or coffee.Rodger Evans
Two hours til coffee when camping? No thanks, I'll build a fire.Suspicious Chihuahua
As others said - too little water and too much time to be practical yet.
If they hooked that thing up to batteries to keep batteries charged (and maybe added a wind up battery charger as well) and then used a battery assist to speed it up that might make it more practical.kidsandliz
man.. bunch of people in a real hurry when they go out hiking. Yes perhaps you should have your own jetpot if you need water that fast. 2 hours for 1/2 a liter is fine, and pretty fantastic for a solar device of that size.mystixa

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
The Clarence
6-8 Wellington Quay, Dublin, Ireland
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Let's get the obvious out of the way: yes, the Clarence is owned by Bono and the Edge, of U2 fame. And yes, the Clarence is more or less the official stopover for actors, musicians and the like—but we'd argue that this has little to do with the owners' marquee value, and everything to do with the fact that, at bottom, it's simply a well-designed and thoughtfully conceived hotel.
This 1852 Regency building stands at the side of the River Liffey, in the heart of Dublin's gentrified Temple Bar district, a once-dodgy neighborhood turned carouser's paradise, now in the midst of a creative boom. The penthouse suite, in fact, quite spectacularly overlooks the river, with panoramic views over the city from the outdoor terrace.
In contrast with the Regency architecture, the Clarence's interiors are all earth tones and smartly informal Shaker-style furnishings. The guest rooms are individually styled, most furnished with massive super-king beds, and all equipped with such necessities as mini-bars and high-speed wi-fi.
If you're a proper rock star, you'll be entertaining guests in the penthouse around the baby grand piano, while the rest of us mingle in the remarkably sedate Octagon bar. (The owners have never been much for hedonistic rock star excess.) And Cleaver East restaurant strikes a similar note, serving modern Irish fare by two of Dublin's finest chefs.
How to get there:
The Clarence is about a 30-minute drive from Dublin International Airport (DUB). A taxi from the airport to the hotel costs approximately €35, depending on traffic.
About The Clarence: The Clarence Hotel, located on the famous River Liffey, puts guests in the heart of the Temple Bar cultural quarter and within walking distance of Dublin Castle, Trinity College and Grafton Street shopping.

I have a 2-node cluster with Open Shared Root on GFS on DRBD. A single node mounts GFS OK and works, but after a while seems to just block for disk.
This usually happens after a period of idleness. If the node is used, this doesn't seem to happen, but leaving it alone for half an hour causes it to block for disk I/O.
I've done a bit more digging, and the processes that hang seem to do so, as expected, in disk sleep state.
For example, when trying to log in, sshd hangs. It's status (from /proc) is:

I can read-write the /var/run/utmp file just fine (/var/run is symlinked to /cdsl.local/var/run).
The socked is a TCP socket, so I cannot see that being a disk block issue. As for /dev/null, I didn't think that could be flock-ed...Looking at cman_tool status and /proc/drbd, both seem to be in order and saying everything is working.
Any ideas as to what could be causing these bogus disk-sleep lock-ups? Gordan

The Newton-Conover Red Devils accomplished something no other Catawba County team has in the past five years. They defeated the Hickory Red Tornadoes in a girls basketball game. It is Hickory's first loss to a Catawba County team since 2005.
"Obviously this is a huge game for both teams," Newton-Conover head coach Jonathan Tharpe said. "Both teams are two of the best in the western part of the state in 2A and 3A. It's just a big rivalry and just a lot of passion to win the game on both sides."

Was a fantastic trip and we got to see some amazing sights. The views were brilliant and we had a great time from start to finish. Only thing was while in helicopter the recordings playing that explained the various sights had a lot of interference so we missed some of the information but didn't spoil our day.

Nirvanix Delivers Affordable, Easy-To-Manage Offsite Storage for Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter
Storage Delivery Network serves as tertiary tier of storage for high-resolution images retrieved as part of
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20090113/LA58239LOGO)
Scheduled to launch in May aboard Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), LROC will capture images of the lunar surface in both monochromatic, at 0.5 meter per pixel with the Narrow Angle Camera (NAC), and multi-spectral, at 100 meters per pixel with the Wide Angle Camera (WAC). The resulting images will be transmitted from the satellite to ASU for systematic processing, replicated to secondary high-performance storage in a separate building at ASU and then replicated to the Nirvanix Storage Delivery Network (SDN). Nirvanix provides a method for storing a tertiary copy of the data offsite by installing CloudNAS and writing a copy directly from the data-receiving servers.
"We were originally looking to implement a tape-based solution for the offsite component of our project but changed the specification to include Nirvanix as the third copy when we realized the benefits we'd gain," said

That leaves jerry rigged systems like um..thinking...sheet to tiller?
An auto pilot is definitely the way to go for you. A simple tiller pilot uses very little electricity and does a very good job of steering a nicely balanced boat. An extra battery and a small solar array is enough to keep a tiller pilot running indefinitely. And they take no space to speak of.
When you're out there it is generally a case of 90% cruising and 5% getting bashed and even then that depends on your idea of getting bashed. The reality though is that it is rare for any meaningful voyage to be without some tough weather times however short.
But boats can be made to withstand weather, the question is are people? Having never voyaged, you don't know whether you are or not. The worst time to find out you're not is when you're 1000nm from the nearest land and you're ALONE. And therein lies, for me, your biggest challenge.
After considerable experience at sea while not alone, I have also done long voyages on my own (single-handing)and the difference is very significant. It's not, as most will tell you, about sleeping and keeping watch and complying with the Colergs and all that stuff. We all now you're not allowed to do that and we all know that all single-handers do anyway.
It's about you and how you stand up to life-threatening conditions when you're alone, haven't slept for two days and haven't had a decent meal in twice that long and whether or not you can continue to make clever decisions when you think you're going to die. If you can't then you may well die.
I note that some people have discussed a book by John Vigor. Do yourself a favour and Google "John Vigor's Black Box" - that's an interesting concept and one that makes great sense when you're contemplating going to sea.
Good luck if you decide to continue with your quest.

hi revdocjim
there can be upto 1/4 oz of silver in a gallon of spent fixer.
its mainly the silver in the fixer that isn't good to go down the drain.
if you have metal pipes it may corrode them if done for a long enough time ...
and the silver likes to kill off beneficial bacteria in home septic and municipal sewer systems.
25+ years ago kodak used to say to just drain it because it posed no problems but they now
say not to dump it down the drain and to remove the silver from it ...
don't worry about a hornet's nest HFT III likes to assume different user names
and go on and on about politics ...
in a previous thread he said spent fixer was harmless, but later he added
he used it as a herbicide on his property.
i hope he gets his well water tested
if you have any magnet questions &c feel free to PM me
i sell them as well as other stuff to recover the silver in your fixer.

Hilton to buy UK, European Hilton hotels
By David Jones and Christian Plumb
LONDON/NEW YORK (Reuters) – Hilton Hotels Corp. on Thursday
said it would buy its British namesake's hotel operations for
3.3 billion pounds ($5.7 billion), propelling it into the ranks
of rivals with global operations.
The merger will reunite the Hilton brand after the business
split in 1964 with the U.S. company running all Hilton hotels
in the United States and the UK group operating the brand
elsewhere around the world.
Hilton Hotels, which also operates brands like Embassy
Suites and Doubletree, will acquire 40 hotel properties in the
UK and Europe, along with 200 leased hotels, a switch from the
company's previous strategy of selling off real estate to
generate management fees and distribute the cash to investors.
"It's a dramatic departure from the asset-light strategy,"
which was popular with investors, said Robert LaFleur, an
analyst at Susquehanna Financial Group.
But executives at Beverly Hills, California-based Hilton,
said the strategy of divesting owned hotels would remain.
"We want to continue getting out of the real estate
business and more into the fee business," said Chief Executive
Stephen Bollenbach.
Hilton Hotels shares surged 7.6 percent to close on the New
York Stock Exchange at $24.00, their highest level in more than
four months.
The deal leaves Britain's Hilton Group Plc, which had
recently sold some 400 million pounds of hotel assets, with
gambling business Ladbrokes — whose name it will now assume.
Hilton Group Plc shares in London closed up 1.2 percent up
at 368-3/4 pence after the deal was announced minutes before
the London close.
Analysts said the deal reflected a desire by U.S.-based
hoteliers to use their highly rated shares to expand overseas.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. is thought to have
eyed up UK-based Intercontinental Hotels Plc.
Other North American chains could now feel pressure to
follow suit.
"I think it forces the people that want to compete in this
space to really have an international footprint," said Jeff
Randall, an analyst at AG Edwards, mentioning closely held
Hyatt and Canada's Fairmont Hotels & Resorts Inc. as chains
which should broaden their geographic base.
In the United States, Hilton owns, manages and franchises
more than 2,300 hotels, while the two Hilton companies operate
a joint venture to expand the luxury Conrad brand, named after
the company's founder, which has about 20 hotels.
The two Hilton groups already share an alliance to cover
joint marketing, reservations and loyalty programs.
"I think they are going to sell off a number of the
assets," said Sam Lieber, president of Alpine Mutual Funds,
which owns stock in both Hilton Hotels Corp. and Hilton Group.
Bollenbach said the international deal offers "a wonderful
growth opportunity" for brands like Embassy Suites, Hilton
Garden Inn, and Doubletree that have so far been confined to
North America.
"As a domestic company, our stock price was valued lower
than companies, like Starwood, that have a larger international
presence," he said.
Hilton Hotels will pay about $1.2 billion of the purchase
price with cash on hand and finance the rest through a bank
facility led by Bank of America and UBS.
Credit agencies were expected to downgrade the company's
debt to junk.
"We like to have an investment grade … now one of our
objectives is to grow income and pay down debt," Bollenbach
Moody's also cut Hilton Group's senior unsecured long-term
ratings to its lowest investment grade ranking, and said it may
lower them further.
"Moody's believes that the business profile of the
remaining entity, Ladbrokes, will be weaker than that of Hilton
Group Plc prior to the transaction," the ratings agency said in
a statement.
Conrad Hilton bought his first hotel in 1919 and the first
Hilton brand hotel was built in Dallas in 1926.
The company expanded across the U.S. and then bought its
first European hotel in Madrid in 1953 before financial strains
forced a split in 1964.
Ladbrokes acquired the Hilton business outside the U.S. in
1987, and changed its name to Hilton in 1999 after it acquired
the Scottish casino and hotel operator Stakis.
"It does seem to make sense for both sides really — this
allows a more focused play for the UK in terms of Ladbrokes,"
said Nick Hodson, equity analyst at Lloyds TSB Private Banking.
Analysts added that an independent Ladbrokes — re-rated in
line with rival betting shop operator William Hill Plc — may
look to expand by acquiring casino operator Rank Group Plc
before Ladbrokes becomes vulnerable to a bid.
Last week, Hilton admitted it had received approaches for
Ladbrokes which industry sources said included BC Partners,
Blackstone and CVC Capital which could value the gambling chain
at between 3 billion pounds and 4 billion pounds.
Hilton said it is paying 11.3 times 2006 adjusted earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)
for the Hilton Group assets. That is about in line with the
hotel sector as a whole, Randall said.
But the valuation is still expensive relative to Hilton's
own shares, which trade at 9.2 times 2006 EBITDA, at a discount
to the group in part because of its lack of international
exposure, he said.
($1=.5756 Pound)

The Mount Markham Central School District is asking for community input during two stages of the district's search for a new superintendent.
The first step is asking residents to complete an online survey to weigh in on the qualifications and experiences they are looking for in a superintendent candidate. The survey can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MtMarkhamSupSearch and must be completed by Friday, Nov. 30.
A link to the survey also will be available on Mount Markham's website at www.mmcsd.org.
District residents will also be invited to volunteer to serve on a committee that will help interview the finalists for the position. More information will be available in the coming months.
Current Mount Markham Superintendent Casey Barduhn is leaving the district at the end of the calendar year to take a job as the superintendent of the Westhill Central School District.
The Mount Markham Board of Education is currently reviewing applications for an interim superintendent to step in for Barduhn starting on Jan. 1, 2013, and filling in until a new superintendent is chosen.
During the Mount Markham Board of Education's meeting on Oct. 30, the board voted to approve Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego BOCES District Superintendent Mark Vivacqua as the search consultant to conduct the superintendent search. It's anticipated the field of applicants will be trimmed to two or three finalists by sometime in the middle of February 2013.
A new superintendent could be in place as early as May 1, 2013, and no later than July 1, 2013.

Remember those Facebook pages we discovered for little Malia and Sasha Obama awhile back? Well, people want at them, apparently, and cannot stop friending Barack's brood. Granted, the profiles are rather convincing, but we think it might be time to reiterate that they were mock-ups, fakes, not real!
Malia has received an impressive but scary nine friends requests and one "friend suggestion" (What does that even mean?) While most people wrote a basic "Hi Malia!" on her wall, there were also some more aggressive attempts to stoke a friendship:

Logjam, encryption wars and tea firm data spills: What we learned in security this week

- V3 Apps

AMSTERDAM: Firms must accept that cloud computing use and the bring your own device (BYOD) trend are the new normal and incorporate them into security strategies, according to RSA programme committee chairman Hugh Thompson.
Thompson said cuts to enterprise budgets in the past five years has radically changed security professionals' place in the business, during a speech at the RSA Conference 2013.
"In the past, security professionals had veto powers. Five years ago if somebody in the business came up with some public cloud strategy that was going to save loads of money, if we said 'no' the enterprise would listen to us. Then we had a financial downturn," he said.
"Now it's not the same. For example, five years ago businesses took a hard line to bring your own device and insisted on business handsets, but now that's changed. How many times do you see a business professional pull out a BlackBerry these days? Today I think most of us have accepted we can't stop this transition."
The RSA chief said the transition means security professionals' roles are now more about enabling rather than choosing what new technologies are used.
"We're transitioning into a spotter role. One where we ask the business where it wants to go and help them get there. Even though we're at the most threatening stage in our history, we're no longer in the business of saying no," he said.
He said the change means security professionals will have to be more aware of the businesses' needs than ever before and will have to find cost-effective ways to protect networks and data.
"In the next five years the business of security will be a business, not technology, industry. We'll be aligned with the direction of the business and tasked to spot things that don't matter," he said. Thompson added that, to do this, professionals will have to rethink the way they work to reduce cost and improve their overall efficiency.
Thompson added that security professionals should learn from other industries that have gone through similar transitions, such as insurance. "Previously when trying to get car insurance they'd just ask your age and what you drive. Contrast that to the way they do it today," he said.
"Now they ask you loads of questions, like what children I have, my level of education, how long I've been married. These are hard questions – based on statistics – that let them know if I'm a good investment."
Thompson listed education as another key strategy that security professionals could use to cost-effectively boost businesses' defences.
"People are all on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. But we still need to educate them about what is OK to do. We need to get them to understand; you should feel free to talk about your cat and what you had for dinner on these services, but don't put a post up about your IT project, that's not cool," he said.
The comments from Thompson counter those of the chairman of John Lewis who said earlier this year that firms must learn to listen to IT teams and to sometimes accept no for an answer when considering new tech projects.
Alastair has worked as a reporter covering security and mobile issues at V3 since March 2012. Before entering the field of journalism Alastair had worked in numerous industries as both a freelance copy writer and artist.

Hollis Thomases | May 24, 2005 | Comments
A new plug-in allows Firefox users to strip all the ads from a Web page.
First came adware, sparking online publishers' ire for its ability to deliver competitive ads next to or on top of a site's existing ads without the user's knowledge. Now there's Greasemonkey, a Firefox browser extension (plug-in). The extension enables Firefox users to share scripts that change the way particular Web pages appear to users who have installed the scripts. Most are written for a specific site and perform a specific function. Of the changes these scripts facilitate, ad elimination is one of the greatest threats to media buyers.
If you were to visit an article on CNN using Firefox with the Greasemonkey extension, CNN's banner and left nav bar are pushed to the bottom of the page. The ads to the far right are also at the bottom. Only text ads and the article itself remain.
Adware gives users no control. Greasemonkey gives users complete control. These scripts are written by an ever-expanding community of programmers and designers who want to view Web pages, well, the way they want to.
Don't like navigation? Change it! Sidebar too wide? Shrink it! Amazon pricing in the wrong currency? Easy fix! The list of scripts is extensive. And, it grows organically. Developers can easily post them to a wiki (define).
As online media buyers, we should be concerned if our ads are blocked. When a user opens a page with Firefox and the ad-blocking script, the page and the ads are at first fully served. Within seconds, however, the ad-blocking script strips out or relocates the ads. The script identifies the ads by their class attribute, "ad." Ads assigned a different class attribute or injected with a JavaScript onload event handler (define) survive the script.
Yet the publisher counts the stripped-out ads as served, even if they couldn't be viewed. The development community is working on a method of running these user scripts early in the page-request cycle. This would completely eliminate the ad request and, therefore, the false data. For now, Greasemonkey scripts can lead to over-reporting served ads, however small that percentage may be.
Though many of these scripts were written to eliminate ads on Web pages, publishers do have recourse. A code has been written to block Greasemonkey scripts from altering Web pages. There are also rumblings of potential lawsuits.
Greasemonkey can wreak havoc with fee-based or registration-only online sites. Some scripts allow users to view restricted content without logging in. NYTimes.com and Salon.com have already fallen prey.
Greasemonkey isn't the first or only ad-blocking mechanism out there. Both Firefox and Internet Explorer have pop-up suppressors. A quick search reveals no fewer than 77 ad-blocking software downloads.
If Greasemonkey rides a similar tide of organic growth as Firefox, it's noteworthy. The development community feels Greasemonkey won't cause much damage; they remind us anyone who goes to these lengths to block ads is very unlikely to actually pay attention anyway.
There's some good in these scripts. If a publisher wants a free critique of his site's unpopular weaknesses, he can just review the Greasemonkey user scripts available for his site. Usability studies typically cost thousands of dollars, so these scripts are a potential cost savings. A little constructive criticism can go a long way. The cleverest publishers would encourage Greasemonkey developers to create a script to display their sites with the ultimate balance of content and advertising. ` up to that challenge?
A special thanks to Jeremy Dunck, publisher of Greaseblog for his contributions to this column.
