John Elefante is an American Singer, Songwriter, Performer and Producer.
Early Years
John was born in Levittown, New York, and his family soon moved to Long Beach, California. Growing up, he sang and performed drums for his family band, The Brotherhood. As an artist, his credits include writing and singing lead vocals on three multi-platinum albums; as producer, his albums have earned numerous Dove Awards, 4 Grammy Awards (most recently in 2000) and 10 Grammy nominations. He has maintained a close working relationship with his brother, Dino, throughout his career.
John's international career began in earnest when he auditioned as the new lead singer and keyboardist for super-group, Kansas, in 1981. That year, the band was one of the top-grossing concert acts in the world and John had never been in a band apart from his family. Although several of the top vocalists of the day applied for the job (e.g. Sammy Hagar, Doug Pinnick), John received the part.
John sang the lead vocals and performed keyboards on three (multi) Platinum albums with Kansas. He was also a major songwriting contributor (along with lead guitarist/keyboardist/songwriter Kerry Livgren). On 1982′s Vinyl Confessions, he co-wrote and sang the #4 Billboard Mainstream Rock hit, "Play the Game Tonight". He also wrote the acoustic-based classic "Chasing Shadows", along with the Top 40 single, "Right Away". The next year, on the following album, Drastic Measures, he wrote the early MTV favorite, "Fight Fire with Fire", which remains the band's highest charting single at #3 (Mainstream Rock) as well as a staple of Kansas' live shows to this day. John was also responsible for "Everybody's My Friend," which was released as the second single from the album and reached #34 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.
Around this time the band began to buckle under the increasing strain of maintaining the consistent radio hits and record company commercial expectations. In addition, contemporary pop music was quickly becoming antithetical to the band's organic, sophisticated aesthetic. A new age of sequenced synthesizers and drum machines confronted Kansas with the near-impossible challenge of maintaining their musical essence and commercial integrity. In 1984, on the retrospective collection The Best of Kansas, John wrote, sang and performed all the instruments with his brother for the album's one new track, "Perfect Lover". That same year John, Kerry Livgren, and Dave Hope left Kansas.
The end of the Kansas period saw John's faith beginning to take center stage in his songwriting, professing a profound and humble faith. While this constrained him to the emerging Contemporary Christian Music arena, he saw his beliefs are more important than the commercial potential of the mainstream music industry.
John discovered another calling while still with Kansas. In 1984, he produced Perfect Timing for ground-breaking Christian artists, Sweet Comfort Band. While not a major commercial success, his next album as producer told a different story, with a Christian band that got its start in 1972. Petra's Back to the Street was a Grammy-nominated, breakthrough commercial success for both John and the band. He also contributed songwriting, keyboards, background vocals and engineering to the effort.
With John and Dino as the band's primary producers, Petra went on to become one of the most popular bands in Christian music. Their accolades include multiple gold and platinum albums, 10 consecutive CCM Magazine Reader's Choice Awards, induction into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame and Hard Rock Cafe, and the only artist to ever have 4 albums in the SoundScan top-100 Christian chart.
Closing out the decade, John had produced five major label albums, and performed on 12. Over the next five years, John worked at an almost frenetic pace as one of the most in-demand producers in Nashville. In addition to Petra's further releases, he worked as the producer on 30 other albums. He usually performed on the releases as well, often sharing songwriting credits, as well. Elefante was committed to his role as producer, eschewing other opportunities such as an offer to replace Bobby Kimball as lead singer for Grammy winners, Toto.
John began focusing on heavier music in the early 1990s. Among many notable albums was the Guardian release,Fire and Love, which produced one of the first Christian songs to receive rotation on MTV. John would see this trend continue, with other Christian bands he produced receiving mainstream audiences. This ground-breaking work, along with others such as Stryper, helped pave the way for a new generation of cross-over contemporary Christian metal artists such UnderOath, As I Lay Dying, and P.O.D..
Elefante also felt the songwriting muse, and formed a new rock band with his brother, Mastedon. The band's name was a pachyderm-inspired reference to the brothers' last name. Although John was an accomplished vocalist and performer, the Mastedon albums featured multiple lead singers and performances by other artists, creating an eclectic sound anchored by John's songwriting. His brother Dino played a prominent role, contributing songwriting and handling most of the guitar work.
Mastedon's first release was titled It's a Jungle Out There! (1989). The title references the challenge of living without a spiritual ally. A year later, the band released Lofcaudio. This album continued the guest performance theme, though John sang more of the lead vocals. Unfortunately, John and Dino's production schedule preempted any touring to commercially support the album. Even so, the albums charted at #25 and #10, respectively[5]. To this day, they are considered classics in the genre.
John and Dino formed their own record label, Pakaderm. Most of the music they produced on in the next 10 years was released on it. With major distribution through Word Records (Christian market) and A&M Records (mainstream), Pakaderm became an important element in the brothers' success. Their label afforded them and their artists significant creative control, while still benefiting from major label resources.
Given their intense recording schedules, John and Dino decided to build their own recording studio in Nashville. They broke ground on the 28,000-square-foot (2,600 m2) Sound Kitchen in 1993. In addition to their own productions, the brothers planned to rent time in the studio to other artists and producers. Nashville certainly had no shortage of excellent recording studios, though, and it remained to be seen if the Kitchen would be booked.
Throughout the later half of 1990s, Elefante continued his breakneck pace as producer, and now record label chief. He decided it was also time to begin a solo career. John released two critically acclaimed and commercially successful solo albums: Windows of Heaven (1995) and Corridors (1997). Beginning with "This is What Love Is" (top 5 on Christian radio airplay charts[6]), they received significant radio airplay. Both charted in the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart, and established Elefante as a popular artist in Christian music.
Meanwhile, the Sound Kitchen was taking on a life of its own. Under the brothers' management, the studio was quickly establishing itself as one of Nashville's most popular. Artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, and Buddy Guy had recorded there. The complex was soon expanded to 80,000 square feet (7,400 m2).
Elefante was hired by Pamplin Records in 1998, working with Dino to generate artist development. This period saw the release of an astounding 32 albums with John at the helm, most of which feature him as arranger and performer, as well. The styles ranged from rock to gospel; pop to metal.
In 1999, Elefante released his most popular solo effort, Defying Gravity (1999). Reaching #11 in the Billboard Christian top-20, it spawned several hit singles and mainstream music videos. John geared up for a 25-date solo tour to promote the album. Tragically, however, he was badly injured in an accident before the first concert, and had to cancel the tour.
John rebounded, beginning the new millennium with the production of Petra's Grammy award-winning album,Double Take. He continued at Pamplin, producing 20 more albums for them in just three years. Simultaneously, he and Dino continued their role managing the Sound Kitchen, which continued to grow in size and popularity.
The new year also saw Elefante's schedule becoming too hectic, however. Success was taking away too much time from his family. In 2002, he left Pamplin after a string of successful albums, including the debut for (now) mega-artist Natalie Grant.
The same year, John and Dino sold the Sound Kitchen. It had become the largest recording studio in the Southeastern United States. Artists included Alabama, Amy Grant, Barry Manilow, Brad Paisley, Brooks & Dunn, Carrie Underwood, Dixie Chicks, Dolly Parton, Donna Summer, George Strait, Gretchen Wilson, Jewel, Jimmy Buffett, Julio Iglesias, Keith Urban, Kenny Rogers, LeAnn Rimes, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Michael W Smith, Peter Cetera, Reba McEntire, Rascal Flatts, Third Day, Trisha Yearwood and Vince Gill.
John started a new major-distributed label with his brother in 2003, Selectric Records. Christian distribution was through Provident Label Group; mainstream through Sony BMG. Having their own label again allowed John to set his own pace for production. Along with co-managing the label with his brother, he produced 10 albums over the next three years. As a singer, he recorded with artists ranging from Pat Boone to Bono.
In late 2006, John took this opportunity to consider something he had never done in his career: catch his breath. Even with his reduced schedule, he needed a break. The brothers closed the label, and John could finally take some time away from the industry. This proved more challenging than expected, and despite his best intentions, he served as producer on three albums in 2007.
2009 Onward
At the dawn of 2009, Elefante has produced and/or performed on more than 100 major label albums. Through his work, he helped transform Christian hard rock from a handful of bands to a mainstream musical genre. The brotherhood had endured, and the two brothers had together achieved considerable artistic and commercial success. Elefante realized, though, that he was still a songwriter at heart. And that the ultimate measure of his career was sharing the joy of his faith; one that moved, sustained, and inspired him.
John has finished a new album, in a contemporary style that also hearkens back to the best of Mastedon, his KANSAS work, and solo albums. Get it here!

Imagine taking a guided tour through the inside of a human body to learn the intricate workings of the organs.
That is just what more than 1,200 children throughout Oktibbeha County had the opportunity to do last week with the help of Mississippi State's Extension Service.
The Body Walk, which was originally created by the Kansas State Department of Education Nutrition Services, has been apart of MSU's Extension Service since 2006 and is an educational program designed to teach young children about the body, what it does and how to keep it healthy. Throughout the state, more than 20,000 children participate in the Body Walk annually.
"The MSU Extension Service has a long standing commitment of providing educational programs and activities for both youth and adults in all 82 counties. These programs focus on issues and needs of the people of Mississippi, enabling them to make informed decisions about their economic, social, and cultural well-being," said Julie White, Oktibbeha County Extension Director. "We hope that through this event, youth will have a better understanding of how their body works and be able to make healthier choices throughout their lives."
Set up as a fun, interactive and shoe-less experience, the Body Walk is geared toward young children, and it puts them in an environment that teaches them important information, but in a format they can understand and retain.
"Schools use the Body Walk exhibit and its related materials to give children repeated opportunities to practice healthy behavior skills," said Vivian Cade, MSU Extension Associate. "Children will learn about the digestive system by walking through the exhibit. And they will remember the exhibit because of the active learning. Linking nutrition, health and physical activity will help reinforce positive health behaviors and raise the value placed on health."
Children start their journey through the exhibit in the same place their digestive systems start working — in the mouth.
The key concept of the mouth station shows the children the importance of a healthy mouth.
"Students enter the domed mouth station by walking on a large tongue. The tongue has areas marked where taste buds for specific tastes are located. Inside the mouth, students sit on stools shaped like teeth," Cade explained.
Inside the mouth, students discuss how to brush and floss properly, foods that should be limited because they may harm teeth, foods that build strong teeth and foods that are good for the gums. Children also learn that tobacco products harm teeth, gums and mouth.
The children make their way from the mouth, through the esophagus to the stomach stop.
In the stomach, the children learn all about the food pyramid and the digestive process that takes place in this organ.
From the stomach, the children made their way to the small intestine. There, children learn that the small intestine is where food is broken into small parts called nutrients, and those nutrients travel to all the parts of the body where they can be used.
One of the key concepts the small intestine station teaches the children is the importance of drinking lots of water as it helps carry the nutrients through the body.
From the intestines, the students learn some parts of the body where nutrients (broken down in the small intestine) travel. The first stop is the heart.
In the heart, children learn that low-fat foods are good for the heart, exercise keeps the heart healthy and what happens to blood vessels if their diet is too high in fat.
The lungs are the next stop, and the children learn how smoking affects the lungs. They also practice deep breathing so they can feel first-hand how their lungs work.
The bone stop helps convey the importance of calcium-rich foods in the diet. It also shows children the function of the bones as the literal frame of the body.
And with bone comes muscle. The children learn how they use muscles and that protein, found in foods like meat, cheese and legumes, help build strong muscles. The children squeeze small balls to see their forearm muscle flex and feel the fatigue that comes with exercise.
Next is the organ that holds us all together — the skin. In the skin station, children learn that nutrients help skin stay healthy. They also learn the importance of sunscreen and regular washing to prevent germs from staying on the skin.
The last stop in the Body Walk is the brain. The children learn that the healthy eating and exercise they learned throughout the Walk are also things needed for a healthy brain. They also learn that helmets protect the brain and should be worn every time the children play hard.
Cade explains that the Body Walk would not be possible without the volunteers who man each station and deliver the important information for the children.
"Without all of their hard work Body Walk would not be so successful," Cade added.
The Body Walk can also be transported to schools for convenience. To arrange to host the Body Walk or for other programming needs, contact the Oktibbeha County Extension Service at 323-5916.

The provincial government has proclaimed a new Procurement Act designed to take the purchasing of goods and services by the public sector into the 21st century and to give more opportunity to New Brunswick suppliers and entrepreneurs.
The new act comes into effect on Oct. 15 and replaces the 40-year-old Public Purchasing Act.
"The new Procurement Act streamlines and modernizes how we buy goods and services while providing more opportunity for our own businesses," said Government Services Minister Sue Stultz. "The new act gives our companies a great chance to compete for business from the government and from universities and colleges, cities, towns and villages - all while respecting our obligations under different trade agreements."
Stultz said the new act and its regulation establish the circumstances and methods by which preferential treatment may be given to a prospective New Brunswick supplier.
"The new act puts in place an innovative and strategic approach to procurement that is simple and streamlined while maintaining proper controls," said Stultz. "These changes will give our provincial businesses and entrepreneurs a fair chance to bid and win government purchasing contracts and help keep our tax dollars here at home - creating jobs and helping provide the programs and services New Brunswickers want and need."
Key elements of the Procurement Act include:
modern strategic procurement methods such as joint purchasing and procuring through buying groups;the ability to procure against contracts established by other government entities or jurisdictions;the ability to grant a temporary exemption, for up to 24 months; and the ability to remove or restrict a supplier from selling to government for non-performance and for conviction for specific Canadian Criminal Code offences related to the sale of goods and services.@$:The new act will also:
add clarity on negotiations during the competitive bidding process;decrease processing time for procurement files and reduce the risk of rejecting valid bids; add rules regarding disqualification and reinstatement of a supplier's qualification as a prospective supplier; and add clarity by defining what is a New Brunswick supplier, manufacturer or place of business.@$:More information on the act is available online at www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/government_services/procurement.html.

"To live life every day in a way that is pleasing to God, and the contributions I have made in the lives of young people, that is what I am most proud of," she said.
After graduating from Marygrove College in 1954, Sloan taught in the Detroit public school system for three years while pursuing a Master of Education in Administration and Supervision from Wayne State University. Then she took a leave of absence from Detroit to teach elementary school in Aschaffenburg, Germany, for one year. During this time Sloan traveled extensively in Europe and in the Near and Middle East.
Upon her return to the Detroit schools, Sloan taught elementary school for five years, junior high for one year, high school for one year, and substitute taught for two years while she attended classes for her doctorate and her law degree. Her last assignment in the Detroit Public Schools was as assistant principal at Peck Elementary.
In 1967 Sloan moved to Washington, D. C., after accepting a position as a researcher and writer at the U.S. Office of Education, National Center for Educational Statistics, Higher Education Branch. This position allowed Sloan to use her Ed.D. and J.D. degrees as well as all of her other experiences.
While there she published a statistical report entitled: Associate Degrees and Other Formal Awards Below the Baccalaureate 1965-1966 and 1966-1967. She also wrote for the National Education Association legal publications and taught graduate education classes part-time at the Catholic University of America.
After her marriage in 1969, Sloan accepted a position with the Flint Community Schools as an instructional specialist. In 1972 she became an elementary school administrator in the Flint Public Schools.
In 1975 she became the first administrator in the Durand Area Schools to have earned a doctorate. She served in various administrative positions for the next 22 years and retired from Durand in 1997.
Challenging jobs and a zealous pursuit of her own education did not stop Sloan from contributing to her community as well. The League of Women Voters, Brownson Guild, the American Association of University Women, St. Sylvester's Board of Education and the City of Detroit Coordinating Council on Human Relations all reaped the rewards of her contributions.
While at Marygrove Sloan was active in the Social Action Group which was involved in the religious education of public school students. After graduation she continued to be active in CCD teaching at St. Sylvester's in Warren, Michigan. When she moved to Durand, Michigan, she continued her CCD work and became the coordinator of the religious education program for high school students at St. Mary's in Durand.
One of Sloan's long-term community service efforts has been the preservation and restoration of the 100-year-old Durand Union Station, and she was the first president of the Board of Directors of the Durand Railroad Historical Museum. She also prepared the Durand Area Bicentennial publication, Heritage 1976.
Of all of the awards and contributions Sloan has earned in her career-and there have been many-she says, "This award gave me goosebumps because it came from Marygrove. I am proud to be a Marygrove alumna. I still have a Marygrove window decal on my car," she said.
"Make every day as productive as you can," she continued. "Being a success at the expense of somebody else is no success at all."

To say that Sony's Xperia devices have become a bit… "samey" would be an understatement. If the picture above is anything to go by, don't expect that trend to change any time soon. The snaps (more at the source) show what is claimed to be the Xperia Z3 compact. It's worth noting that would mean the Z2 compact got skipped altogether here in the west (we loved the Z1 compact though, so all forgiven). Other than the fact it's nigh on the same design, all the photos tell us is that there are some new mint and… orangey-pinky-red color schemes coming. Ausdroid who sourced the pics (it says are press shots, but these look more like someone got a hands on,) claims it was also tipped that the Z3 compact will have a 4.6-inch screen, 2.5GHz (Snapdragon 801) processor and that now Xperia-standard 20.7-megapixel camera. So, what's more appealing? A gentle bump in spec, or the snazzy new hues? We'll find out for sure once we get hands on at IFA this week.

Featured DVD / Blu-ray Review: The Expendables 2
November 18th, 2012
The Expendables cost $82 million, which is not an insignificant amount of money, especially for a mini-major like Lionsgate. However, the risk paid off when it became the distributor's biggest hit of all time. (That record has since been broken by The Hunger Games.) It was obvious that they would make a sequel, but is it any good? Granted, in my review, I called the original, "a pretty mindless action film that takes itself a little too seriously at times." So I'm not expecting a lot here. If the movie can provide mindless action like before, then I will assume it is worth checking out for fans. Can it deliver? Can it surpass expectations?
The Movie
This time the film starts in Sindhupalchowk District, Nepal where Barney Ross and the rest of The Expendables are on a rescue mission. They are there to rescue a Chinese billionaire, but also end up rescuing Trench, Ross's rival. Things go great, until Ross is shot twice and he and Lee Christmas are surrounded. Fortunately, the new guy, Billy the Kid, is an expert sniper and is able to take out the bad guys.
Once they are back home, Billy tells Ross that he has to quit. While he thought he could handle the job, being a mercenary isn't the life for him. He'll continue till the end of the month, presumably to give Ross time to find a replacement, then he's going to retire. Ross understands, but is still disappointed. When he returns to the garage / home base, he's in for more disappointment. Mr. Church is there and he has a mission for Ross. It's a mission he can't refuse, because Ross owes Mr. Church for how the last mission went. He has to go into Albania and retrieve the contents of a very important safe, and he will have to work with someone new, a woman, Maggie Chan. This time the mission ends tragically and one of the group is killed and the package is stolen by Jean Vilain. Now The Expendables have two reasons to go after the bad guy: to retrieve the package and to get revenge.
(I'm not going to say who is killed or what the package is, because both of those are spoilers.)
The Expendables 2 is very much a sequel. It doesn't stray very far from the formula the original used, which is good news and bad news, depending on your point of view. If you loved the first movie, this one has all of the same elements that made The Expendables fun. There's plenty of over-the-top action and thanks to the large cast, there is a wide variety of fighting styles employed. This is the film's biggest selling point, although like last time, there's a little problem with balance between the characters. There's even more one-liners and cheesy dialogue, some of them funny, some of them not. (There are also a lot of inside jokes, so long time fans of the genre will have some fun.) The cameos we saw the first time are expanded this time, which is an improvement over the first film. There are even more 1980s action stars this time around, including my personal favorite, Jean Claude Van Damme. It is a better movie in some regards, but is still suffers from many of the same problems. Anytime they try to get emotional, the film falls flat. When the member of The Expendables is killed, we are supposed to have the heartfelt moment, but the movie hasn't done enough to justify that. We don't know enough about practically any of these characters to truly care if one of them died, and in this instance, the setup is really ham-fisted. You can probably guess who is killed by the plot summary above. Fortunately, the filmmakers knew that the film's strengths were in the action scenes and not the emotional aspects of the movie, so they were able to concentrate more on the former this time around.
Enough works that if you are a fan of films of this genre, particularly those made in the 1980s, then it is worth checking out. If you hated The Expendables, then I wouldn't recommend The Expendables 2. If you thought the predecessor was merely okay, but wasn't as fun as it should be, then you will likely enjoy this one more.
On a side note, how can you spend $100 million on a movie and still have CGI blood spatter that looks so fake so often? It was distracting at times. I understand the appeal of using CGI blood; the time between takes is dramatically reduced if you don't have to clean up fake blood between takes. But it is a risk if you don't have the time and resources to make it look good. Plus, it is a tempting area to try and save money.
The Extras
The extras begin with an audio commentary track with the director, Simon West. Next up are a quartet of featurettes, but they are evenly split between those that focus on the movie and those that focus on real life. Gods of War: Assembling Earth's Mightiest Anti-Heroes is a 21-minute look at the film from the beginning of The Expendables to the new cast for The Expendables 2. On the Assault is a 14-minute look at some of the weapons featured in the movie. The two real-world featurettes are Big Guns, Bigger Heroes and Guns for Hire. The former is a 25-minute look at the action film of the 1980s and how it fitted into the culture of the day. This is not a fluff piece and even if you are not a fan of the genre, it is interesting to watch. The latter is a 24-minute look at real-life mercenaries. Finally, there are 5 minutes of deleted scenes and 5 minutes of outtakes.
I don't have the Blu-ray to compare, but it costs $5 or 38% more on Amazon.com. That's a little on the high end of the acceptable range for a film that lacks any exclusive extras. I suspect the technical presentation will be worth the upgrade, but I can't say for sure.
The Verdict
The Expendables 2 is worth picking up for fan of the genre in general of and for fans of The Expendables in particular. However, without being able to see and hear the film in high definition, I can't say for sure if the DVD or the Blu-ray Combo Pack is the better deal.

A GENE with a split personality could explain why the Ebola virus is so dangerous, according to a team of researchers in Michigan. They say their work could lead to a treatment for Ebola infection, and that the schizoid gene could be tamed for use as a tool to treat other diseases.
More than half of people infected with the Ebola virus die a gruesome death within weeks. In these victims, the virus evades the immune system and causes massive bleeding that throws them into shock. Scientists have not found any effective treatment.
Ebola's ruthlessness is all the more remarkable considering that its genome consists of only seven genes. Scientists trying to make Ebola vaccines are especially interested in the gene that encodes a glycoprotein (GP) that coats the virus. By a clever genetic trick the virus uses the same gene to produce a soluble and free-floating version of the ...

Legal and Binding: Funeral Essentials for a Famous Music Critic
6. There will be a 25-minute fellowship, during which time UGK's "One Day" will be played on repeat. Nobody is allowed to talk, save rapping the words to the song. Please do not attend if you don't know the words. (I'd recommend printing them out right now and then carrying them in your wallet/purse.)
7. One of my three sons will deliver the eulogy. If Boy A gives the speech, he will do so in the same voice and speech pattern as Juvenile in "Ha." If Boy B does it, he will mimic Future's vocals in "Karate Chop." And if Boy C does it, he'll do his like Slick Rick in "A Children's Story."
8. DMX will be there to perform the opening prayer, from the prayer skit from It's Dark And Hell Is Hot. If he wants, he can also sing "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer." I must've watched that video of him doing that, like, 200 times.
9. I will headline my own funeral, which means there should be several smaller, less important funerals before mine. These will be preceded by a two-song set from Ja Rule, consisting of "Holla, Holla" and his verse from "Can I Get A." After that, escort him out of the building. If he asks for payment, give him the copy of R.U.L.E. that I bought in college and tell him, "Shea says 'Thanks for nothing, Ja.'"
10. Everyone should already be seated before they bring my casket in. When the pallbearers wheel me in, the girls from ODB's "Got Your Money" video will walk alongside it singing the song's hook, but instead of singing, "Hey, Dirty, baby I got your money," they will sing, "Hey, Jesus, baby I got your body."
11. Everyone who comes gets an "RIP Selena" T-shirt.
I think that's it.
Thank you.
Legal and binding.

Nowhere does anyone ask; What is AUTOMATICALLY backed up by Time Machine ?
Who can give a straight answer please ? Everyone talks about backup - but what ????
- Asked by Philip (joe) D
QA Apple Time Capsule
Product No Longer Available
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
Clarifying and expanding on a few of the other answers:
Time Capsule is a networked hard-drive, and you can access it like a file server, so you can manually copy anything you want on to it.
Mac OS X includes "Time Machine" software, which can store backups on the Time Capsule (or an external hard drive).
Time Machine:
- Watches for files which change and makes a note of them (even when not near your Time Capsule)
- Next time you are connected to the same network as the Time Capsule, will automatically push these changes to the backup being kept on that device.
Time Machine also provides a nice recovery interface to allow you to quickly find deleted/old versions of files (in the backup).
Time Machine doesn't by default back up everything -- it ignores system files and directories, that you normally wouldn't need (as they come on the Mac OS X disk); and focusses on user documents. So there is a minor risk if an application uses non-standard directories for storage, that it wouldn't be backed up. You can turn off 'ignore system files' in the settings I recall.
If your Mac dies and is replaced/etc, then when setting up your new mac you get asked something like 'do you wish to restore from a time capsule backup'.
- Answered by Mark M
Time Machine software can back up only what is located on Leopard, Snow Leopard, or Lion Mac internal hard drives/SSDs and their directly connected USB hard drives/SSDs. It will automatically backup WHATEVER you have chosen for it to backup.
Time Machine is software that is not located on the Time Capsule, but is located on your Mac as part of the above versions of OS X.
- Answered by Andrew H from Carmel
It acts the same as a normal external hard drive would. It will automatically back up EVERYTHING from your Hard Drive/SSD, as if it were an exact copy of your computer.

Billboard Music Awards 2013: Tracy Morgan is a good but ill-fitting hostAdd to Favorites | 2014 Billboard Music Awards
Anyone who's watched an episode of "30 Rock" should know the brand of humor that Tracy Morgan brings with him. The comedian didn't disappoint when he hosted the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, cracking jokes about listing off the black artists at the awards show first and having no one look quite as attractive as Condoleeza Rice. And when he stumbled in his introductions of presenters like Chloe Moretz and gave a strange but well-meant shout out to Michael Jackson, it was in line with the type of personality Morgan has developed over the years.
All in all, Morgan actually did a pretty decent job hosting the Billboard Music Awards -- or at least as good as could have been expected. But who thought that Morgan would be the right comedian to host an awards show that honors musicians? Morgan isn't in the same generation as Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift, and it feels strange for him to be standing alongside them.
Choosing someone younger like Andy Samberg or someone more in-tune with the music scene frequent awards shows host LL Cool J would have been a better fit for the 2013 Billboard Music Awards than Morgan. It's not even like Morgan has a group of fans who would necessarily tune into the Billboard Music Awards just because he was hosting. While many of Morgan's jokes worked, it only made matters worse for him that they became less and less frequent as the show continued on.
Towards the end of the awards show, Billboard only seemed to use Morgan for strange in-show commercials promoting Las Vegas. At least he tried to save the day after Bieber's ill-received Milestone Award acceptance speech, saying, "Don't be booin' nobody, this ain't 'Showtime at the Apollo.'" In the end, many probably won't leave the Billboard Music Awards with good feelings about Morgan's hosting abilities, but we'll argue that it's not entirely his fault. Morgan seemed to try to do the best with the situation he was handed, and we appreciate that he at least got Psy to participate in a dance-off.

My techical issues may have been limited to my handset but some are consistent with general users. Vodaphones 7 days cooling of period really wasnt enough time for me to
make a more informed decision but certain fundamental flaws put me off for now.
Custom Roms / Rooting options
Really decent smartphone for price point.
Good battery life.
Screensize and colours.
Replaceable battery & expandable memory (up to 32gb micro sd)
gingerbread is nice entry into android world
really great selection of android apps that improves functionality of phone.
External speakers for music were pretty decent.
Touch screen is not responsive with version U885. (Primary Issue)
Poor signal on both 3g and incoming/outgoing calls. Same sim worked fine in my other phone (Primary Issue)
Incoming call volume (Not that important)
Bit on the heavy side (Not that important)
For some reason, i had to reset date and time twice for no apparent reason. (Undecided)
After few days the OS become slightly sluggish. Reboots resulted in home page being almost blank before refreshes revealed existing icons apps. (Undecided)
Being forced to create a gmail account (Not that important)
Huawei earphones are average.
Versatile mobile with plenty of potential but utlitamtely flawed based on MY exp with the handset and its "official" updates.
I plan to keep an eye on the phones development via this site. I think the work being done here is amazing but id personally rather wait and see what ICS
brings and whether huawei will support the g300 with official fixes that specifically address phones signalling issues and touch screen
responsiveness. May also add to my exisiting pros and con list depending on input from other members.

They aren't saying it isn't innovative, dude. They're saying it isn't open.
As in, lock down the SDK and declare jailbreaking a crime.
As in, only people with a Mac can develop for it.
As in, carrier exclusivity and threatening of fire and brimstone for imitators.
Lastly, AT&T is encouraging interoperability in this post, which implies that they want Apple to be more open.

Microsoft & Nokia CEOh-Snap: iPhone Should Be More Open! AT&T: Then Why Keep Copying It?
UPDATED: Daring Fireball nails it. Closed or open, the smartphone industry was stagnating before the iPhone...
ORIGINAL: Steve Ballmer is the gift that just keeps on grief'ing! Proven wrong about the iPhone already, both the Microsoft CEO and his counterpart at Nokia, Olli-Pekka Kallasvu both decided to take fairly transparent jabs at Apple, who once again didn't even bother to attend the show. CNet (via MacRumors) has the gory details.
Said Kallasvu (taking a break from iCloning the iPhone App Store):
Apple's vertically integrated model, where its hardware and software are tightly controlled by the company, further fragmented the market. And he added that what is truly needed is more openness in developing applications.
Said Ballmer, (who's been getting his own fair share of grief this week over WinPho 6.5):
"I agree that no single company can create all the hardware and software. Openness is central because it's the foundation of choice."
One disgruntled European expressed displeasure at all the iPhone talk, asking why it deserved attention when it had only a tiny sub-percentage of the market.
Responded AT&T Mobility chief Ralph de la Vega:
"Because the other 99.5 percent of the industry is trying to copy the iPhone."
It wasn't all hugs and kisses from AT&T, though, even with the iPhone providing life support to their bottom line. Jabbed de la Vega:
"The iPhone is a great success, but it would be even better if the applications were interoperable,"
Um, yeah, because then people might actually want to buy those other, less innovative, non-iPhone you have stockpiled in your warehouse?

Microsoft & Nokia CEOh-Snap: iPhone Should Be More Open! AT&T: Then Why Keep Copying It?
They aren't saying it isn't innovative, dude. They're saying it isn't open.
Then Mr Ballmer, I suggest you go first:
Open your Exchange email platform to make it more interoperable.
Why did none of YOUR apps work on the Treo 700 as it came out and tried to eclipse my Palm Treo 700? Or am I the only one who has a memory going back more than two years...
How's about the fact that most of your own apps don't even run across the yet-to-be-fully-understood MULTIPLE mobile OSs. Where was Excel on my Q?
Seriously dude...
One wonders just how much of Apples restrictive lock down practices would go away if Congress make it against the law to carrier-lock a cell phone. (As it is in Italy and a few other places).
Most of it seems aimed at protecting the Carriers and media providers. But now that DRM is slowly on the way out, what other possible reason other than Carrier demands remain for the restrictive nature of Apple?
How many would pay full price for an iPhone to be free from a carrier restriction (assuming there was a choice of compatible networks)?
How much cheaper would carrier plans be if they did not have to recover the cost of the device?
LOL @ "Because the other 99.5 percent of the industry is trying to copy the iPhone."
That's the perfect response to that question.
The rest of the industry is copying the iPhone in terms of features, market strategy etc.
I don't think they are trying to copy the restrictive nature of the device.
As for Jason's response, what MSFT did 2 years ago is not relevant compared to what they are doing now. The .NET Compact Framework gives you quite a bit of flexibility. It just isn't as appealing as there's no gold rush.
We're lovers, not haters, and if you can't tell a post with a big honking Ballmer tongue blue screened all over it isn't intended to be prankish, well, then... don't know what else to do for ya :)
And a "gold rush" is the least of .NET's unappeal :p
(The rest of the industry would love to copy the iPhone's lock in. Big business loves lock in. They just don't have the ecosystem and iPod market behind them -- don't be fooled into thinking anyone out there is truly non-Evil).
I dont think everyone is trying to copy the iphone, that 99.5% figure is a huge exageration! I am sure we would have seen many court cases had that been true, I have heard of apple wanting to go after only palm for an unreleased product, maybe there are a few more that apple wants to chase but 99.5%, huh ;)
@ Rene,
It's become quite obvious what your true feelings regarding Apple's competitors are. You certainly aren't lovers. Ballmer was not "proven wrong" about the iPhone's lack of success at a $500 price point. He was right. This article is off base as well. I like to come here for my iPhone news, but the hate and untruths spouted about Palm and MS make it hard. This is mostly a good site, just grow up a little.
LOL! Awesome satire. "Obvious", "true" "off base" "hate" "untruths" "spouted". Very nice!
Well played, sir!
(I don't care a wit about companies, just products. A couple years ago, I was Microsoft from console to desktop to phone, now I'm mostly Apple. If Microsoft pulls out a Win8, WinPho 7, Xbox 720 fully-integrated trifecta, maybe I'll switch back in a couple years -- but they'll have to earn their love).
Even more ironic -- I was with WMExperts when they bought their Xperia X1a. Any guesses how expensive that phone was? How successful in the US compared to the iPhone 2G? Ballmer needs to spend less time talking about Apple, and more time finding a product picker to take the reins at Microsoft... ;)
I agree with antonio. If companies can build upon the good work in iphone, let them. Good products at right prices will be appreciated by the customers whethers they are copies or not. That frightens apple, i agree with them if they choose to protect their IP though. Theres no easy out for apple here unfortunately, it will have too prove it can hold on its own and bring better products than the copycats. If the copycats do it better than apple, so be it!

"LOL! Awesome satire. "Obvious", "true" "off base" "hate" "untruths" "spouted". Very nice! Well played, sir!"
I like your site a lot but calm down on being so defensive, downright rude to people. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, right? That's why you host this site—to get opinions and have a dialog, no?
I apologize if I came off as rude, it was unintended. We should all remember to discuss the issues, not each other.
Hi there peeps, I just wanted to holla and tell you that I found a great site. For those of you who don't want to spend ridiculous amounts of money on pay-per-view fees to watch UFC 108 online FREE in full HD. Better then spending $55.95 on it eh?

The Arlington Philharmonic Association is working to provide Arlington with a first-rate musical performance group that can provide concerts, classes, and demonstrations for the public and for the public schools, and to increase citizen access to classical and traditional music. We are also establishing partnerships with the Arlington County schools to offer music education experiences and interdisciplinary programs for students of all grade levels.
For example, the orchestra director of HB-Woodlawn High School scored the re-discovered "Arlington Song" for voice and chamber orchestra for a performance at the Philharmonic's free inaugural concert, and in the summer of 2006, the Philharmonic invited drama students from Washington-Lee High School to perform Stravinsky's "L'Histoire du Soldat".
We intend to make these performances available to all citizens of Arlington, taking advantage of the many cultural opportunities and venues in Arlington County, performing in schools, libraries, parks, and other venues.

PROVIDENCE — George Coderre knows the drill. As the head coach at Woonsocket High, Coderre studies the game from his sideline perch while his mind races with various adjustment schemes. Obviously the idea is to outsmart the opposition, which Coderre's club was able to do for most of Sunday's playoff exercise against Westerly High.
Eventually the Bulldogs were able to decipher what was a pretty effective zone defense thrown their way by the North No. 2-seeded Villa Novans, delivering the type of counter punch that enabled Westerly, the South's third seed, to eliminate Woonsocket in the Division I quarterfinals, 41-33.
"We expected them to go man-to-man but when they went zone, we kind of got off track," noted Westerly junior Emily Dobson, the game's high scorer with 22 points.
Stated Coderre, "We knew the matchups were going to be very difficult for us. We're just way too small to match up with that kind of team. We wanted to show it (zone defense) early and see how far we could go. They posted us up three or four times that we were able to get away with.
"After a while we decided that they're probably not going to hit the outside shot," Coderre went on. "They're going to concentrate so much on going inside and to our credit it worked. We completely took them out of what they wanted to do."
Rarely was Westerly able to penetrate Woonsocket's zone, a development that as Coderre noted allowed his team to remain faithful to with what was working. The Bulldogs shot just 7-of-25 from the field in the opening half with Dobson responsible for all but four of Westerly's halftime team total of 14 points.
Westerly regrouped, though, and opened the second half with a 15-6 run. Dobson scored eight straight points to cap the surge and give the Bulldogs a 29-23 lead that they would not relinquish. On the flip side, Woonsocket began the second 16-minute stanza ice cold, hitting just 3-of-13 shots.
"To me the key was the start of the second half. We had five consecutive excellent shots inside of 15 feet and didn't hit any of them," Coderre said. "They just didn't go down."
Dobson carried her team for much of the way before the cavalry arrived late, enabling the Bulldogs to advance to the Division I semis. That game is set for Wednesday night against either La Salle or Smithfield. The Rams and Sentinels were the late game on Sunday evening.
The score read 33-29 in favor of the Bulldogs when Ashley LeClair converted a layup off a Woonsocket turnover with Madison-Sean McLaughlin following with a jumper that sank the Villa Novans into an eight-point hole with 2:40 remaining. A pair of free throws enabled Woonsocket to pull within six (39-33) with 28 seconds left before Westerly closed things out with two makes from the line.
Michelle Brayboy and her 14 points led Woonsocket. Playing in her final varsity game, the senior was instrumental in rallying the Novans from a 12-7 deficit. She made both of her 3-point makes count, the first coming with 1:20 left in the opening half to tie the game at 12-12.
Just before the halftime horn sounded, Brayboy netted a perfect shot from behind the stripe to make it a 17-14 game in favor of the Novans.
"They had (Kailey) Fugere and Brayboy where they kept setting those pick-and-rolls and we kept getting stuck," Dobson said. "(Brayboy) nailed those threes in our eyes and we couldn't stop that."
Woonsocket shot just 6-of-21 in the opening half. However the Villa Novans were able to close out on a high note with four straight makes.
"Sometimes the pace of the game reaches a point where you're open more than what you expect," said Coderre. "We had good shots. We just didn't hit them."
Before departing Rhode Island College, Coderre was asked to talk about his collection of seniors, Allyson Cartier and Caitlyn Marcoux along with Brayboy and Fugere. It's a group that tasted plenty of success, from being part of a Division II championship as freshmen to copping a state title as sophomores to ending their high school careers with back-to-back Division I quarterfinal-round appearances.
"I told them I'm as proud of them as any of the teams we've had," Coderre. "I just thought they did a great job of giving everything they possibly had."

The Patriots Make A Trade Deadline Move. The Eagles Stand Pat.
The Patriots the former runner ups of last seasons super bowl made a low risk high reward move yesterday with an attempt to sure up their secondary woes by acquiring troubled corner back Aqib Talib from the Buccaneers for an Andy Reid coveted 4th round pick. If the former 1st round pick doesn't work out, they could easily dump him later. If he does then they have made a solid move to strengthen their struggling secondary. The struggling Eagles on the other hand decided not to make any moves on offense, defense, or special teams despite they are in effect struggling in all phases of their games. one more reason why Belecheat has 5 Super Bowl appearances in the same span of Reid having only one. 4th round picks are worth giving up to try to make your team better today, instead of coveting them like they are gold to be used for tomorrow.
I'm not too upset. Look how the Eagles secondary fared with 3 "top" corners last year. I wouldn't want to see the Eagles throwing picks away that the new head coach will need and in football there is usually a reason teams are looking to "give" players away. Talib is a problem child.
Talib is the next Fred Lane, Chris Henry. I wouldn't have given up the gum under my shoe for him. While the world wants to talk about the EAGLES unraveling, they may want to take a look at how far the Patriots have fallen.
BTW, the EAGLES weren't the only team to stand pat, 29 other NFL teams did the same, with Talib being the only guy to change hands. Lamenting the EAGLES lack of movement is just complaining for complaining's sake.
Not concerned about what 29 other teams are doing. I'm concerned about what a team that needs help at offensive line, linebacker, safety, and receiver are not doing to fix those need. You can't be a mortal lock if you don't sure up your own problems. The Patriots recognize they have a problem and took a chance. The Eagles did nothing. You of all people with your decree of a Mortal Lock should be irked at the fact they did nothing as they are making your mortal lock decree seem like nothing more than wishful thinking.
You missed the point. I'm not saying the Eagles need yet another corner. I am saying they need a safety. They need another lineman. They need some help. I didn't want the Eagles to get Talib. I wanted the Eagles to address their needs. They didn't, because they covet silly things like 4th round picks they waste on guys like Casey Mathews.
I didn't miss the point and actually started typing that I knew you were only using Talib as an example but deleted it. Still dosen't change my point that most players picked up in the NFL at this time come with some type of baggage. Do you honestly want Reid using up someone else's draft picks? Would it really make you happy watching Andy Reid use up resources that some other coach may need when it won't truly matter in the long run?
Green the only thing that would make me happy is a Super Bowl victory. I don't care if Reid is the guy to do it. I will go further to say considering this team has used their picks to draft bums like Casey Mathews, Jaquan Jarrett, Keenan Clayton, "the other TO", Brandon Graham, Riley Cooper, Marvin McNutt, to a great extent Nate Allen, and host of other players then yeah I certainly don't mind them using a pick or two in order to improve this roster. The time to win is now.
This group has used picks in the past to "improve" the roster. Still no Super Bowl championship. I would rather Reid move around what he needs to on the current roster than to start messing with a future he will probably not be part of.
Who knows. Reid may have requested to make a move, but was denied by the front office for that very reason. If that were true then they ought to just put him out his misery and fire him.
[not displayed: comment from locked account]
That makes two of us and I know Hollwood is on board
They obviously have needs but its not in the cards. Lurie is banking that a coaching change down the road will spike interest that will be lost by seasons end. And he is probably right. But, this season, even though the record isnt horrible, is one of the worst efforts on Eagle record. Can that change ? They have an opportunity to right the ship on Monday Night football. But I expect inconsistency the rest of the way.
The entire Andy Reid era could be looked back in regret. People will say "If they just would have did this or that, they would have been champions." Sadly more often than not under Reid he took too long to figure "this and that" out or he was too stubborn to change.
I think those years were potentially our best opportunity for a longtime. the teams from 2000-2004 only needed minor tweeks to become champions. To be fair and honest I just dont see anything in this team that remotely resembles those near superbowlcalibur teams. The one constant of our very good teams were McNabb and Dawkins. There is no denying that much of the success belongs to them. And both should be considered in the HOF but I think both may be denied. Our best hope is Lurie to keep the team because if he sells we will go through the process of an owner funding the purchase. It would be a Jerry Jones over-extended situation and that could translate into marginal talent on the field. FOR YEARS!
I agree, but consider those 2000-04 teams. 2000-03 they lacked a receiver and they refused to try and get one. In 04 they got one, but they also waited a long time to get a Middle linebacker, and they had no return game. Tod Pinkston was a starter. They had no number two receiver. Sure teams seem to have flaws every season, but it seems like the Eagles more than any team under Reid wait several years to address their problems.
And the Eagles sign a nobody off to help with their offensive line woes. I'm sure that is better than using a pick or two to fix their problems. NOT!
Trade deadline is past...there isn't anybody out there and again let the new coach keep his picks. They may need all of them to try to get up and draft a quarterback and fill some other needs. Trades will be available to the new coach next year...let him make those deals that will affect his future with the Eagles. No deal the Eagles would have made would make this O-line good enough or change the QB situation.
Don't know if that's true, because they didn't try. If they truly wanted to save the season they should have tried.
Desperation doesn't usually bring about good results, Eazy.
But theses guys pride themselves on being smarter than everyone else. Did they somehow think that if they left not so well enough alone things would get better? I mean at that time they may have been able to save the season. Now it seems pretty much over. Now they have built in an excuse of this line being too poor as an excuse for keeping Reid.
Save the season with one move, maybe two...players that teams would have been willing to move? I don't see how.

Grey's Anatomy
Grey's Anatomy Season 9 Speculation: How Will Mark's Death Affect Jackson?
Mark's (Eric Dane) death shook the Grey's Anatomy world at the beginning of Season 9. We as fans will miss his charm and laughter. But the characters in the show will be hit even harder.
One character we expect to see especially affected is Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams), Mark's protege. But how will his mentor's untimely demise affect this star student? Here are three things we'd love to see from Jackson this season in the wake of Mark's death.
1. The student becomes the master. We'd love to see Jackson step it up as a surgeon, really taking this time to shine now that the Seattle Grace-Mercy West plastics master is gone. We already had hints that he was growing confident in his own skills and judgement during Season 9, Episode 1: "Going, Going, Gone," and it sounds like we might be in for more.
2. Work things out with April. Will Mark's speech to Jackson about love prompt him to make another move with April (Sarah Drew)? It looks like it. Whether they get together permanently or decide they're better off friends, we just want Jackson and April to face their feelings head on, instead of dancing around them all the time.
3. Help Callie. We have no idea if the writers have any intention of doing this, but, personally, we think it would be cool if Jackson started trying to help out Callie (Sara Ramirez), who has a lot on her plate, what with Arizona's (Jessica Capshaw) leg situation. We'd love it if Jackson perhaps took on some babysitting duties. He could honor his old mentor by caring for his kid, while also helping lesson Callie's burden when she's busy.
What do you want to see from Jackson this year?

We had Jim Anderson Flowers do the flowers for our wedding day and everything was absolutely wonderful! The bouquets, centre-pieces, flowers for the ceremony, corsages/bout's, and flowers for decor were exquisite... everything actually exceeded our expectations! It was excellent value and I couldn't have been happier. We worked with Geraldine, who understood my theme perfectly and brought my vision to life. We were really happy and would recommend working with Geraldine to anyone planning their wedding!

Previously had other billing issues with other London florists, Jim Anderson's however was smooth and easy going, flower selection is beautiful. This however, is not what blew my mind. The day of the delivery I called telling them that my girlfriend was going to be out of the house at a specific time, and the woman over the phone was extremely pleasant and actually did her best to coordinate me without charging me extra! This is the quality of a nice, caring, family run business, and they will definitely have my business again! Cheers!

Local oxygen tension has a profound effect on the vasculature, which compensates vascular insufficiency through the induction of angiogenesis. An important mediator in this Process is the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) complex, which is activated in hypoxic cells and increases transcription of a broad range of genes including angiogenic growth factors such as VEGF HIF is primarily regulated through oxygen-dependent proteasomal destruction of the regulatory subunit, HIF-1alpha or HIF-2alpha. Regulation is through the modification of specific prolines in HIF-alpha chains which are hydroxylated by a recently identified family of enzymes which require molecular oxygen and 2-oxoglutarate as cosubstrates, and iron as a cofactor. Following modification HIF-alpha chains are captured by a ubiquitin ligase E3 complex containing the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumour suppressor protein. The HIF prolyl hydroxylases (PHD enzymes) act as oxygen sensors regulating HIF, and hence angiogenesis. The PFM-HIF-VHL system provides a range of opportunities for therapeutic manipulation.

Uganda seizes massive ivory and pangolin haul
Ugandan wildlife officers have seized a huge haul of elephant ivory and pangolin scales, representing the deaths of hundreds of endangered animals, police said Sunday.
Ugandan wildlife officers have seized a huge haul of elephant ivory and pangolin scales, representing the deaths of hundreds of endangered animals, police said Sunday.
Hunted for generations for its tasty meat, the scaly-skinned pangolin is under threat in Gabon as demand for the small mammal surges in Asia, where it is used in traditional medicine.
The scaly anteater, which looks like an artichoke with legs and a tail, is being eaten out of existence as its tasty meat is served up at banquets across Asia, conservationists said Tuesday.
(Phys.org) —Pangolins, insect-eating mammals that live in tropical parts of Africa and Asia, are under threat from a growing inter-continental illegal trade in the animals and their scales, according to ...
Thai police Tuesday said they had seized almost 200 live protected pangolins, which are prized in China and Vietnam as an exotic meal and for use in traditional medicine.
Vietnamese customs officials said Wednesday they had found more than six tonnes of live protected pangolins inside a shipping container sent from Indonesia.
A Chinese fishing vessel that crashed into one of the Philippines' most famous reefs damaged almost 4,000 square metres of centuries-old coral, the marine park said on Saturday.
Philippine authorities have seized 23 protected scaly anteaters found hidden in a cargo boat, in the second case of suspected trafficking of the species in a month, officials said.
The Philippine coast guard said Monday it had found hundreds of frozen scaly anteaters, or pangolins, in the cargo hold of a Chinese boat that ran aground in a protected marine sanctuary last week.
The Thai navy on Tuesday said it had intercepted wildlife traffickers attempting to smuggle 104 endangered pangolins to China on the Mekong river.
Indonesian police have intercepted 85 endangered pangolins, most of them alive despite being stuffed into sacks by suspected smugglers, an official said Tuesday.
Vietnamese police have seized five tonnes of frozen pangolins and iguanas that were destined for the cooking pot in China, an official said Friday.
Philippine wildlife authorities seized a huge shipment of meat and scales from up to a hundred slaughtered pangolins, also known as scaly anteaters, officials said on Friday.
(AP) -- As the 20 cardboard boxes bound for China rolled through the X-ray machine at Jakarta's airport, Indonesian customs officials suspected what was inside didn't match what was declared. Instead of fresh ...
Malaysian wildlife authorities said they have rescued 130 pangolins and arrested two men attempting to smuggle the protected species, destined to be sold to restaurants and medicine shops.

Luxembourg-based Skype, founded in 2002 by Scandinavian entrepreneurs, offers free computer-to-computer voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls and low-cost connectivity between computer and landline or mobile phones. Skype was bought last year by eBay in a deal valued between $2.5 billion and $4 billion and has more than 70 million registered users.
"We're excited about bringing the talented Camino Networks team to Skype," Niklas Zennstrom, Skype's CEO and co-founder, said in a press release.
In recent months, Skype has tried attracting new users by introducing new products that appeal both to consumers and small businesses.
