GAZA, Palestinian Territories - Backed by tank fire and airstrikes, Israeli forces pushed deep into southern Gaza on Friday, searching for an Israeli army officer believed to be captured by Hamas fighters during deadly clashes that shattered an internationally brokered cease-fire.
The apparent capture of the soldier and the collapse of the truce set the stage for a possible expansion of Israel's 25-day-old military operation against Hamas.
President Barack Obama and U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon called for the immediate release of the soldier but also appealed for restraint. In Israel, senior Cabinet ministers convened late Friday in a rare emergency meeting after the start of the Jewish Sabbath.
The search for the missing soldier centred on the outskirts of the town of Rafah, on the Egypt-Gaza border.
At least 140 Palestinians were killed Friday in Gaza, with at least 70 killed in the Rafah area along with two Israeli soldiers.
Earlier Friday, Israel and Hamas accused each other of breaking the truce, which had been announced by the U.S. and the U.N., and took effect at 8 a.m.
The breakdown meant there would be no reprieve for the 1.7 million residents of Gaza, where large parts have been devastated by airstrikes and shelling, and at least 1,600 people — mostly civilians — have been killed and more than 8,000 wounded. Israel has lost 63 soldiers and three civilians.
The fighting in the Rafah area continued into the night, with residents reporting airstrikes along the Egypt-Gaza frontier as well as heavy tank and artillery shelling. The Israeli military said it was searching for the missing soldier and had sent automated calls or text messages to Rafah residents to stay indoors.
"We are under fire, every minute or so tanks fire shells at us," said Rafah resident Ayman Al-Arja. "I have been thinking of leaving since 2 p.m., but tank fire can reach anywhere, and I was scared they will hit my pickup truck. Now we are sitting in the stairwell, 11 members of my family, my brother, his nine children and wife. We just have water to drink and the radio to hear the news."
The 45-year-old Al-Arja added: "We are just staying put waiting for God's mercy."
The heavy shelling in Rafah was part of operational and intelligence activity to locate the missing officer, 2nd Lt. Hadar Goldin, the Israeli military said.
An hour after the cease-fire began, gunmen emerged from one or more Gaza tunnels and opened fire at Israeli soldiers, with at least one of the militants detonating an explosives vest, said Israeli army spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner.
Goldin, a 23-year-old from the central Israeli town of Kfar Saba, was apparently captured in the ensuing mayhem, while another two Israeli soldiers were killed.
"We suspect that he has been kidnapped," Lerner said.
Obama called for Goldin's unconditional and immediate release and said it would be difficult to put the cease-fire back together. However, he said the U.S. will continue working toward a cease-fire.
He said Israel committed to the truce, but at the same time called the situation in Gaza "heartbreaking" and repeated calls for Israel to do more to prevent Palestinian civilian casualties.
"Innocent civilians caught in the crossfire have to weigh on our conscience, and we have to do more," Obama said. He added that Israel must be able to defend itself, but that irresponsible actions by Hamas have put civilians in danger.
Israel has gone to great lengths in the past to get back its captured soldiers. In 2011, it traded hundreds of Palestinian prisoners for an Israeli soldier who had been captured by Hamas-allied militants in 2006. The capture of two soldiers in a cross-border operation by Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrillas in 2006 sparked a 34-day war between the Iranian-backed Shiite group and Israel.
A Hamas spokesman, Fawzi Barhoum, would neither confirm nor deny the capture, saying the event was being used — along with the killing of two Israeli soldiers in the Rafah area — as a cover for what he called a "massacre" in Rafah.
The violence killed at least 70 Palestinians and wounded 440 in the Rafah area, according to Gaza Health Ministry official Ashraf al-Kidra. The dead included paramedic Assef al-Zamily, killed when an Israeli tank shell hit an ambulance in which he was riding, al-Kidra said.
Another 70 Palestinians were killed elsewhere in Gaza on Friday, according to al-Kidra.
Ban blamed Hamas for violating the cease-fire and demanded the immediate and unconditional release of Goldin.
The U.N. chief also urged both sides "to show maximum restraint and return to the agreed 72-hour humanitarian cease-fire that tragically lasted such a brief period of time," U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry by phone that Palestinian militants had "unilaterally and grossly" violated the cease-fire and attacked Israeli soldiers after 9 a.m.
"Israel will take all necessary steps against those who call for our destruction and perpetrate terrorism against our citizens," Netanyahu told Kerry, according to a statement from the prime minister's office.
Moussa Abu Marzouk, Hamas' deputy leader, denied that Hamas violated the truce. He told Al-Arabiya news channel from Cairo that the movement's military wing carried out no military operations after 8 a.m.
A longtime friend of Goldin's said he is engaged to get married and that he studied at a Jewish seminary in the West Bank settlement of Eli. Goldin has a twin brother who also is in the military on the Gaza front lines, said the friend, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he did not have the family's permission to discuss Goldin's personal details with the media.
The soldier's father, Simha Goldin, is a Tel Aviv University professor specializing in Ashkenazi Jewry, the friend said.
"We want to support the military in the fighting against Hamas in Gaza. We are sure the military will not stop before it turns over every stone in Gaza and returns Hadar home safe and sound," the father said in a statement to reporters outside his home.
The shelling in Rafah sent families fleeing from apartment blocks. One woman carrying two children rushed toward a parked car, yelling to a bystander, "Quick, open the car door!"
Ambulances ferried the wounded to al-Najar hospital, where family members frantically searched for loved ones among the bloodied bodies on stretchers. Many of the wounded were children. In one room, four children were treated on a single bed, while others were examined on the floor.
On July 8, Israel began an aerial campaign against Gaza aimed at halting Palestinian rocket fire and later sent in ground troops to target launch sites and tunnels used by Hamas to carry out attacks inside Israel.
Four brief humanitarian cease-fires were announced, but each broke within a few hours.
The Israeli military said Gaza militants fired at least 38 rockets and mortars at Israel since the start of Friday's cease-fire, and two were intercepted.
The latest cease-fire, announced by Kerry and Ban, was intended to be the first step toward a lasting truce, with Egypt inviting Israeli and Palestinian delegations to Cairo for talks. Despite its collapse, an Egyptian government official said Cairo had not cancelled its invitation for Palestinians and Israelis to hold talks. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to talk to the media.
Soon after the cease-fire started, Gaza's residents took advantage of the lull to return to their homes, many of which had been destroyed. In the heavily bombarded Gaza district of Shijaiyah, less than 1.6 kilometres (a mile) from the Israeli border, residents surveyed the damage.
Bassem Abul Qumbus found that his three-story home — in which he had invested tens of thousands of dollars - had been shattered. Shells had punched a hole in the ceiling of one bedroom and a wall had collapsed into the kitchen.
"The work of all those years is gone," he said as he struggled to salvage flour from bags that had been torn apart by shrapnel.
In the southern town of Khan Younis, residents searched for bodies amid destroyed homes. Rescuers and volunteers used makeshift stretchers to carry away corpses, some badly burned.
Nidal Abu Rjeila found the body of his disabled sister on the side of the road, her wheelchair flipped upside down. He said her body had been there for five days.
"I tried to reach human rights groups and the Red Cross, but no one was answering me," he said, overcome by grief.
Israel says it has tried to spare civilians by warning them before military strikes, and that Hamas endangers Gazans by firing rockets from residential areas.
Palestinian militants have shot hundreds of rockets into Israel during the conflict, extending their reach to major cities but causing few casualties, in part because Israel's "Iron Dome" defence system has intercepted many of the missiles.
Hamas has vowed to keep fighting until Israel and Egypt lift a crippling blockade of Gaza imposed after the Islamic militant group seized power there in 2007.

Steen signs $3.4M extension

While the most of the hockey world was focused on the upcoming NHL trade deadline – and, locally, on the future of Mats Sundin – Maple Leafs' winger Alex Steen has quietly signed a contract extension with the club.
Steen, 23, has signed a two-year contract for $3.4 million that will carry him through the 2009-10 season. He will make $1.7 million in each year of the deal, double the $870,000 he is earning this campaign.
"It's nice to get it done." he said. "To be 100 per cent honest, I think this is the place that all hockey players want to be; the atmosphere surrounding the team and the city is incredible. It's great to play in front of a full building every night. It just makes the job so much more interesting and so much more fun. I'd like to be here when we turn things around."
Steen, Toronto's first-round draft selection in 2002, was a blossoming offensive threat when he first arrived in Toronto.
He had 18 goals and 45 points as a rookie in 2005-06 but his numbers have fallen off since then. Last season he had 15 goals and 35 points. This season he has 10 goals and 26 points in 56 games.
"I think I've progressed in my game a lot in the last couple of years, especially the mental side of the game," he said. "I've learned how to play in different roles and different styles of game. I think that in the last couple of years, the defensive part of my game has gotten a lot better. Maybe the offence and the points haven't been what people expected but at the same time, I think I've developed a lot of confidence in that aspect as well. It's been good for me to try out different roles."
Cliff Fletcher, Toronto's interim general manager, said the deal had been in the works before he arrived on the scene in late January. He said it was just a "coincidence" that Steen's extension would be announced so close to the trade deadline, though it would seem to give him some measure of security in the organization. In the NHL's salary cap system, teams have shown a reluctance to trade for players with extended terms on their contract.
"I'm not sure about that. If there's a general manager that gets a chance to better his team, I don't think there's a general manager in the league who wouldn't do it," said Steen. "But it's nice to sign for two more years because this is where I want to be."
There can never be any guarantees, obviously, but Fletcher said he sees Steen as one of the important building blocks as Toronto moves forward.
"He has as much security as any other player but he's a good young player and now he's signed for two more years and we know how the figure will fit into our cap for next year so it's all good," said Fletcher. "He's happy and the team is happy."

Mel Gibson's movie comeback flops
Mel Gibson has failed to win over cinema-goers with his comeback role in "The Beaver" – the movie has been dubbed a box office flop after scoring low opening weekend ticket sales.
The film marks Gibson's first appearance onscreen since his troubled personal life hit headlines last year and the release was pushed back several times as the actor dealt with his split from Oksana Grigorieva, her allegations of violence, a custody battle over their daughter and leaked tapes of their arguments.
"The Beaver," which tells the story of a man struggling with depression who uses a glove puppet as an outlet for his feelings, was given a limited release in the U.S. this weekend, but it failed to make an impact on movie fans, scoring just $104,000 in box office takings, according to figures released by distributor company Summit Entertainment.
However, Richie Fay, president of domestic distribution for Summit, insists the low box office score is merely a reflection of the film's edgy story, telling the Los Angeles Times, "I don't think this is as much a repudiation of Mel and his personal life as it is about a film with difficult subject matter. It's not the type of role that people would gravitate to or expect him to be in.
"As it turns out, I think the film is more of an art-house specialty kind of movie than a broader commercial film. The subject matter is a hard sell even though it's got a commercial actor in it like Mel Gibson. I don't know whether it's going to transcend that art-house audience."
Michael Douglas' kids unaware of Catherine Zeta-Jones' bipolar struggle
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones are shielding their two young children from the actress' struggle with bipolar disorder because they have only just come to terms with their father's recent cancer battle.
The "Wall Street" legend underwent intensive treatment last summer after being diagnosed with stage-four throat cancer.
He beat the disease in January, but the Hollywood couple's personal lives took another hit in April when the "Chicago" beauty was found to suffer from bipolar II.
Doctors diagnosed the condition after Zeta-Jones checked into a mental health clinic to treat a severe bout of depression, brought on by the stress of her husband's battle.
The stars, who explained all about Douglas' cancer fight to Dylan, 10, and Carys, eight, have chosen not to burden their kids with their mother's issues so soon after their dad's illness, although Douglas worries they will find out through gossip at school.
Appearing on "The View" on Monday, he says, "No, (they don't know) yet. We gotta give them a chance, they're just getting over the other issues.
"Of course the hardest part is not the kids at the school, it's the parents of the kids, you never know how much they're sharing (with their children)."
David Beckham escapes car crash unhurt
Soccer star David Beckham and his son Brooklyn were left shaken but unhurt after a car accident in California on Friday.
The British sportsman was driving on the 405 Freeway near Torrance when his vehicle rear-ended a stalled car.
Beckham and his 12-year-old son were uninjured but the other driver was taken to hospital after complaining of minor neck pain.
A spokesperson for the California Highway Patrol says, "Mr. Beckham's black Cadillac SUV collided with the rear of a gold Mitsubishi in the carpool lane."
The sportsman was not cited over the incident.
David Hasselhoff confronts Piers Morgan in TV interview
David Hasselhoff used a TV interview to confront Piers Morgan over the publication of a video tape which showed the actor drunk, insisting his feelings were "hurt" when a website linked to the British newsman posted the footage.
The "Baywatch" star hit headlines in 2007 when the clip, shot by his then-teenage daughter Taylor-Ann, leaked online. It depicted the actor ranting and struggling to eat a burger off the floor of his hotel room.
The home video appeared on several websites including the online version of U.K. newspaper the Daily Mail, which prints a column written by Morgan.
Hasselhoff, who has since tackled his alcohol addiction, became emotional as he challenged Morgan over the incident during an appearance on U.K. series Piers Morgan's "Life Stories."
He told Morgan, "I'd never seen (the video)… And it was put out for money. It was put on websites, including your own. And that hurt my feelings. 'Cause I thought you and I had a personal relationship. And it hurt my feelings."
Morgan replied, "I understood that… This is the Daily Mail website, which I do a column for. I didn't know they were putting it up there but you told me."
Hasselhoff added, "I guess it goes with the territory but the sad part about it is that no one gives a damn about me being an alcoholic or my daughter. They give a damn about a paycheck."
But the 58 year old later proved he had resolved his differences with Morgan by taking to his Twitter page and writing, "Piers Morgan and I butt heads (in the interview)! I'm calling it 'When w**kers attack'… Thanks you Piers!!"
Toni Braxton hesitant about posing for Playboy
Financially-strapped Toni Braxton is still contemplating an offer to pose nude for Playboy magazine because she's concerned the spread will have a negative impact on her two sons.
The "Un-Break My Heart" hitmaker was approached by editors of the men's publication to strip off in January, three months after filing for bankruptcy.
But the star is hesitant to agree to the lucrative deal because she worries her young boys Denim and Diezel will get teased about the sexy spread at school.
Speaking on "The View" on Friday, she says, "I'm thinking about it. I haven't said yes. One of the reasons why I'm considering, or I guess I should say basking in the moment, is because I'm older now…
"I'm totally flattered, like, 'You want me to be a cover girl?' I haven't made a decision… because my kids are in the booby stage (at) eight or nine (years old). They just discovered (them). 'Mommy, boobies, boobies!' I don't want their friends to say, 'I just saw your mom's boobies.'"
In a series of posts on her Twitter page earlier this year, she wrote, "I would love to pose with (Playboy founder) Hugh Hefner though. He's the sexiest guy I know over 30… Of course it will be tastefully done… Just a lil T and A. They have asked me about 3 times before."
Alicia Silverstone gives birth to son Bear Blu
Actress Alicia Silverstone has become a first-time mom after giving birth to a baby boy.
The "Clueless" star, 34, and her rocker husband Christopher Jarecki welcomed Bear Blu Jarecki on Thursday, just in time for Mother's Day.
The couple wed in 2005 after eight years of dating.
Baby Bear is an apt name for the tot – vegan Silverstone is a longtime animal rights campaigner.
Paul McCartney to wed for third time
Paul McCartney is engaged to wed girlfriend Nancy Shevell, his publicist has confirmed.
The Beatles legend, 68, began dating the American heiress Shevell, 51, in 2007, a year after ending his marriage to former model-turned-activist Heather Mills.
They have kept their relationship relatively low-key, although they stepped out together on Monday to attend the annual MET Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.
A report on People.com early on Friday suggested the couple is ready to exchange vows and now McCartney's publicist has confirmed the happy news.
Representative Stuart Bell tells the Associated Press, "We're all thrilled for him."
It will be McCartney's third trip to the altar. He lost his beloved first wife, Linda, to breast cancer in 1998 and was married to Mills for four years before their bitter split in 2006, which saw the star hand over $38.9 million to settle the divorce.
Shevell has been married once before.
Sheryl Crow 'goes public' with new romance
Sheryl Crow appeared to go public with a new love after she was spotted getting cozy with musician Doyle Bramhall II at a New York gala on Wednesday.
The "All I Wanna Do" hitmaker has worked with the guitarist and vocalist for more than 10 years but insiders report their relationship has now turned romantic.
The couple fueled those rumors after stepping out together at the Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center's spring ball, where they performed a duet and posed for photos.
According to the New York Post gossip column Page Six, Crow was "cozy and flirty" with Bramhall all night.

Sony Xperia T, V, and J debut at IFA, James Bond to use T in Skyfall
Built on the Arc design, a new range of phones has been announced by Sony at IFA in Berlin, Germany, on Wednesday.
The Xperia T will be the company's new flagship device. It will have a 4.6-inch 720p HD Reality Display with Mobile Bravia Engine and a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. It will also feature NFC to connect an array of Sony devices. It's a system that Sony has used already, with its SmartTags available.
The Xperia T comes packing a 1.5 GHz Qualcomm Krait dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM and a 1850 mAh battery, and will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich at launch rather than Jelly Bean.
Its 13MP camera features 16x digital zoom and Sony's Exmor R image sensor, and will shoot full 1080p video.
The phone will come with 16GB of on-board memory expandable to 32GB via microSD.
It will be available in black, silver and white. Customers who buy a new Xperia smartphone will also get a free 60-day trial to Music Unlimited.
The Xperia V will be water resistant for use "come rain or shine", says Sony, and have similar specs to the Xperia T - namely the same 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 13MP camera, Ice Cream Sandwich OS and NFC technology. However, it packs a 4.3-inch screen (720p HD Reality Display) and will also come with LTE support in the US.
The Xperia J will be the company's more "budget friendly" offering, with a 4.0-inch FWVGA Display, social media updates with illumination and a 5-megapixel camera. It will be available in black, gold, white and pink colours.
Sony also confirmed that it the Xperia T will be the official smartphone of James Bond in the new Skyfall movie out later this year.
Sony also announced that it had launched a new version of its tablet - the Sony Xperia Tablet S.

Rio by the Sea-o
Remeber when we said we would be looking forward to being on a bus for 24 hours? Yeah, not so much. We have arrived scratched, bruised, (and I'm convinced) still wet in Rio de Janeiro after a neck-numbing 32 hours on four different busses. I know, it sounds bad. I'd love to say that it wasn't as bad as it sounds, and I guess I can, because it was much worse. Never before have I been happy to arrive at a bus station (It's been a ...

So I don�t really understand why we (and all the other unsuspecting transit passengers) were barked at, ordered around, herded like cattle, interviewed, fingerprinted, photographed, sniffed by dogs, patted down and ordered through two sets of security in a process that took two hours. Nuff said. Well, ten hours later we arrive in Brazil to a much warmer reception. Hooray! We are in Rio de Janeiro! I should preface this blog by saying that I was a bit worried, in ...

Google Maps goes 8-bit with Dragon Warrior world map filter
Have you ever wondered what the world would look like in 8-bits?
Now we can find out because Google has added an 8-bit "Quest" filter to Google Maps. Using the world map tiles from the four Dragon Warrior/Dragon Quest games on the NES, the filter remaps streets, rivers, parks, mountains, and more in glorious 8-bit. And don't forget to check out the Street View too!
This isn't the first time Google has mined NES and Super NES nostalgia for a fun time. Previously, the search giant transformed their logo into a playable version of Pac-Man, added the Konami Code to Google Reader, and did a barrel roll with their search results.
UPDATE: The "Quest" filter is no longer accessible through Google Maps. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. The video walkthrough is all that's left:

Nico Rosberg Takes Win at Formula One Grand Prix in Austria
in News
In a dramatic start in turn one, Mercedes AMG driver Nico Rosberg, got out in front of pole sitter Lewis Hamilton, and drove all the way to the finish line, at the Formula One Grand Prix, in Austria. It was a must win race for Rosberg, and in his mind, there was no doubt that he could win. Rosberg's closest competition since the start of the season has been championship leader and teammate, Lewis Hamilton, followed by fellow German and four-time champion, Sebastian Vettel. Neither if the champions could catch Rosberg on the track or throw him off his game.
In a desperate bid to win and stay in championship contention, Rosberg did not let anything faze him until the last few laps of the race when he was heard on team radio nervously telling his team he felt vibrations, and asking them to keep an eye on it. Rosberg's lead was never in jeopardy as he drove a steady, and confident race. This is Rosberg's third win of the season, and closes the gap between him and Hamilton to, 10-points for the driver's championship.
Lewis Hamilton, in spite of a five-second penalty for crossing the white line going into the pit lane, held on to a second place win. All week long, Hamilton had been experiencing issues with the set-up of the car, but still managed to achieve pole. Hamilton congratulated his teammate for the win and is looking forward to his home race at Silverstone, in Great Britain.
Surprisingly, Williams-Martini driver Felipe Massa was third on the podium, his first of the season, while Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel came in fourth and Massa's teammate at Williams, Valtteri Bottas was fifth.
Winning in Austria was very much connected to Rosberg's sense of pride. The Austrian Grand Prix was as close to his birthplace of Germany, as he will get all season, and winning there, was important to him.

When Fernando Alonso was asked about the performance of the McLaren Honda, he relied, "I enjoyed the session. All the updates we brought here seem to be working as we'd expected, and they've put us closer to the mid-pack. It's very encouraging to see that we're moving firmly in the right direction – it's a question of time as to when we'll become competitive. "Obviously, we began the season from a lower starting point than some of the other teams, so it's been easier for us to make quick improvements, but the team is so focused and determined to improve – that's very impressive."

Report: Fracking may make TX power supply drought resistant
Fish & Game News January 6, 2014 Chester
A new University of Texas-Austin study shows that producing electricity from natural gas saves much more water than producing power from coal, even accounting for water lost in fracking for shale gas.
In other words, fracking for natural gas used to produce electricity may make Texas more drought-resistant as the state shifts from coal power generation to natural gas power generation.
The study, funded by the state of Texas, looks at how Texas'devastating 2011 drought affected electricity demand and power plant water consumption as compared to 2010. Texas is unique among states because its power grid is entirely isolated from the rest of the country. It also produces more electricity than any other state, about half of which is produced using natural gas, according to the study.

It's that time of year, when Cannes Film Festival-related announcements will start coming fast and furious. We already know that Jane Campion is presiding over the main competition jury and that Nicole Kidman-starrer Grace Of Monaco will open the proceedings. Today, Cannes says that veteran Iranian helmer Abbas Kiarostami will be president of the Cinéfondation and Short Films Jury. He'll be joined by directors Noémie Lvovsky, Daniela Thomas, Mahamat-Saleh Haround and Joachim Trier. The jury will hand out three prizes to films submitted by students from film schools worldwide as part of the Cinéfondation Selection. Those awards will be handed out on May 22. The jury will also decide the Short Film Palme d'Or which is bestowed at the official prize ceremony on May 24. Kiarostami won the Palme d'Or in Competition with 1997's Taste Of Cherry and has had four other films in the section: Through The Olive Trees (1994), Ten (2002), Certified Copy (2010) and Like Someone In Love (2012). He is also a patron of the Cinéfondation, alongside Martin Scorsese.

"which may be a boon to anyone stumped by the concept of reading and sorting messages"
The Teen and The Boss generations will rejoice.
"Similar to what Henry Ford did with the Model T, Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs put technology directly in the hands of the people".
It was a fscking hobbyist thing!
Yes, it's a japanese anime: EARTH vs. SPACE NAZIS. Involves dropping O'Neill colonies onto Australia, too. Well done. Stupid kangaroos.
"Help me, Putin Panslavoni, you are my only hope!"
Taxing each gigabyte is a bit like taxing each acre, so this is something of a Land Tax for the modern age.
Err.... In what kind of universe is "land" and "number of bits transmitted" in any way comparable?
The only effect will be to depress the number of bits transmitted (adios dreams of a 'digital economy') and suck wealth from the private economy into crony areas. A win situation only for socialists and other leeches.
Well, I guess Blockbuster will survive in Hungary, then.
"Except that taxes don't stop you from working"
Indeed, they make you work harder and longer, as you sweat and toil for the government's largesse (redistribution to those not in need for a small fee and mucho promises) till about Mai or June. Only after that is the income you gain truly yours.
He's going to break all their Fung Shui protection rings.
Like american wars, the permanent hum of exploitable bug doofosity has become part of the filtered-out background noise of the 21st century.
Let them choke like Monty Python's Gluttony Dude.
NoScript is in action
El Reg pulls in some content from gstatic.com, which ain't forthcoming, leading to white pages and repeat pressing of F5 and/or permanent rotating "loading" icons. Since around start of last week. Any relation?
Russia's recent military adventures
I think the confused author misspelled "The US/EU political adventures". Neocons are already raising noises about Moldova, I hear. It never stops.
The performing blackadder-tier military adventures are also "us" at the moment.
> The source material is sand
Actually the source material is very clean sand. And water. And petrol, lots of petrol.
Comrade Lenin, please.
I'm not sure why anyone would choose to shut down their laptop when they could just close the lid and suspend, open lid and continue working where they left off.
Ever upgrade the kernel?
Btw, if they are Debian developers why don't they say who they actually are. Why lurk in the shadows?
Have you SEEN youtube videos where Poettering "discusses" things?
Believe me, when you're trying to figure out why your service isn't starting, systemd looks mighty nice, and upstart is pretty cute too.
To paraphrase a saying from OO programming...
People had a serious problem with properly managing service startups under the increasingly creaky SysV approach.
They thought systemd would be a nice idea.
Now they had two problems.
Next at The Register: What to do if your suspiciously organic Giant Super Robot suddenly decides to stop moving while you are comfy ensconced in the liquid-filled command podule.
it seems obvious that the whole caper is a very amateur con job being run to exploit the paranoid
Yet another one who falls for CIA decoys hook, line and sinker.
FAP before PRIVACY!
Do they have an underground express to some NSA overnight stay facility?
It would be rather cool if you waited till evening for anyone to come out. Nothing. Then at 22:00, Smoking Man exits, gets into a car and drives off...
No panic before elections, remember?
OTOH, I hear this:
If President Obama is serious about tackling Ebola, he should look to individual intiative, as Ron Paul has advised. He writes in his weekly column, "Firestone Tire and Rubber Company has successfully contained the spread of Ebola among 80,000 people living in Harbel, the Liberian town housing employees of Firestone's Liberian plant and their families. In March, after the wife of a Firestone employee developed Ebola symptoms, Firestone constructed its own treatment center and implemented a program of quarantine and treatment. Firestone has successfully kept the Ebola virus from spreading among its employees. As of this writing, there are only three Ebola patients at Firestone's treatment facility ... Firestone's success in containing Ebola shows that, far from justifying new state action, the Ebola crises demonstrates that individuals acting in the free market can do a better job of containing Ebola than can governments."
You better start quivering, do you want a visit by the party van?
I dunno but a horde generally only manages to hit one acolyte once before it breaks.
The left has declared Ebola inquiétude another tentacle of the vast right-wing conspiracy, Obama has appointed a political operator as Ebola Czar and we are even bombing Ebola somewhere in Eurasia. So why the Gartnerization?
Actually, if you look at these credentials, you will find that me and my wife are the pope.
These kind are the worst. Only organized bus trips to the Fletcher Memorial home have any chance at remediating the situation.
No, the Pak come with their own fusion engine (plus stack of edible roots and inbuilt instinct for xenocide and genetic purification)
Ayyy lamo icon, of course.
Unfortunately we have no orion-tier spacecraft ready for an intercept.
With all that comes from Jimbopedia:
Solar Wind:
"The wind exerts a pressure at 1 AU typically in the range of 1–6 nPa, although it can readily vary outside that range."
Light Pressure:
perfect absorbance: F = 4.54 μPa
perfect reflectance: F = 9.08 μPa (normal to surface)
That's three order of magnitude difference, advantage light sail.
Anyway you need a special kind of sail (actually: a set of wires) for the solar wind: Electric solar wind sail
On the other hand, I don't think the sail is supposed to interact with the solar wind. Except in the negative sense, you don't want it to pick up nasty charges.
If you are designing it right, you can orient the sail to get an orientable thrust vector, for the rest you can design your orbits correctly or do chaotic-based orbit transfers for maximum coolness.
Solar sailing has been in the "planning stages" since the mid-70s at least, with nice images by Vincent DiFate or whomever; there were even plans to have a comet-rendezvous mission use this .... now it's 2014 and it's still marked "cancelled". NASA ... just another gummint outfit.
Isn't this from the "Dirty Pair: A Plague of Angels" comic?
Rapid deployment to trigger-enabled hardware?
Actually a Cylon.
She probably has a plan or two.
On that picture, Mars looks like an angry Sunrise Haro? Not good.
... that anyone who consider it should be happy-slapped with a bat at least twice per hour for at least five months. With a
jawbreaker water-soaked pillow.
Seriously, it's something out Brave New World, I can see Ford cynically talk about great happiness for the higher castes while we bomb colored people in foreign lands that might interfere with our right to allocate the oil under their feet, because, you know, happy people are not wont to question the leadership or their edicts very much. Then everyone takes a tablet of Soma, has a mindless sex orgy with whomever is at hand (no AIDS please, we are happy), then goes home contented. THE END!!
Yeah, how is happiness maximization going to bring the capital infrastructure that brings you through the winter, saves you from (fear!) EBOLA or gives you adequate medical care? It won't. Be happy, die crappy.
Moreover, the idea that the government is in charge of maximizing anything, be it happiness or GDP (which it currently tries to nuke hard), is right up the alley of that intellectual shitter Krugman, who isn't exactly against have a war to "up the GDP" (and of course destroy everything of worth except the number). That he now whores out with happiness is a new low.
Yep, kill it with fire!
That is why we are determined to quadruple the current six-month sentence.
Why only quadruple? Whenever the government "promises" X billions to "rekindle the economy" I would think that 10*X billions to "rekindle the economy" would be better and do a faster rekindling.
Decuple the sentence. Hell, go wild, CENTUPLE!!
It would be enough to make one open incontinent fire in utter rage.
Talking about surveillance. Did El Reg strike a surveillance deal with linkedin, the Facebook For Suits? Recently page load times have gone southwards (or may not terminate) and/or you get the forever spinning wheel after page load seems to have completed. My Firebug seems to indicate linkedin doing its stuff, whatever it is (probably nothing particulary healthy...)
Did they forget the safe word?
I suddenly feel the urge to play a bit of DEFCON.
What the Chinese demonstrated was in fact, their MISSILE DEFENSE capabilities. And missile defense [something which the U.S. *DOES NOT* have btw]
The US sure as heck tries to get it operational. The fact that the biggest gunslinger on the planet doesn't exactly manage reliable intercepts should give you a hint as to the capabilities of the cheap-and-easy Chinese efforts (Hint: 250 BEEELLLION USD for a barely working TEAM USA MANLY SYSTEM, a nice price and basically a taxpayer-funded donation to Lockheed-Martin et al., correspond to around 2 years of operations for the whole PRC military at 2014 levels.)
Yes I know but doesn't water under very high pressure become a solid?
Allah is great and will send Ebola to transform their sorry arses into festering heaps of bubbling biomass.
I raise you two decades.

NASA's Latest High-Resolution Photo: Has Google Maps Robbed Us Of Our Sense Of Wonder?
Photo courtesy NASA
You're looking at one of the highest-resolution photos ever taken from the International Space Station, posted this week by NASA.
NASA says it has a resolution of two to three meters per pixel, due to (WARNING: geek talk incoming) using lens "doublers" to increase the optical magnification of camera lenses.
It also requires the astronaut to hold very still:
Active ISS motion compensation is also important; the astronaut must pan the camera by hand at just the right rate, keeping the object at the same point in the viewfinder. The technique involves bracing yourself against the space station bulkhead to prevent movement related to weightlessness.
We do like "the technique involves" leaning against a wall. Science!!!
Anyway, it's a very neat, detailed picture. A decade ago we would have been amazed. But in the age of Google Maps, where you can zoom in like a spymaster, the photo just doesn't seem to have the "oomph" it should.
View Larger Map
(Hit the "view larger map" link for best results.)
Or maybe we're missing some photographic magic that's just over our heads.
At any rate, if you could zoom in on the NASA photo we're sure you could see the Texans giving up a long bomb for a touchdown.
