Leading management and marketing company, Viral Spiral, which connects hit viral content with brands, agencies and production companies worldwide, and Rightster, a leading online video distribution, marketing and monetisation specialist, today announces that the most viewed user generated viral video of all time, the hugely successful 'Charlie bit my finger' has exceeded half a billion views on YouTube.
This milestone coincides with the introduction on YouTube of a new series of original online videos featuring Harry and Charlie alongside their younger brother Jasper. The first three pilot episodes titled "Biting News", "King of The Week" and "Charlie Bites…Toys" were produced by Viral Studios, a division of Viral Spiral, in conjunction with Rightster and showcase a selection of lighthearted viral videos from around the web, together with a review of a remote controlled Lamborghini toy car.
The YouTube viewing statistics for the original 'Charlie Bit My Finger' video provide insight for the first time into how the most popular user generated video went viral and also illustrate significant changes in our viewing habits.
High speed mobile broadband together with the widespread adoption of smartphone and tablet devices has resulted in a dramatic shift to video consumption on the go with 73.5% of all views in 2012 coming from these devices, compared to 45.2% in 2011 and 22.4% in 2010.
The video was uploaded to YouTube on the 22nd May 2007 and has since attracted audiences worldwide with the USA, Mexico, UK, Canada, Germany, Brazil, Australia and most recently, Saudi Arabia all having featured in the top 5 list of countries generating the most views each year. At the other end of the list, there have been 103 views from the Vatican City and in last place, 3 views from Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand with a population of approximately 1,400 inhabitants.
Interestingly, the video was initially more popular among females who made up over 60% of the audience in 2007. The boys have since caught up, with the audience now evenly split.
Damian Collier, Founder and CEO of Viral Spiral commented: ""We're delighted that the 'Charlie Bit My Finger' clip has now reached the half a billion views milestone – it's amazing to see how popular this video has become in every corner of the globe. It's a household name, and turning into a true 'brand'. We look forward to working with the boys and their family as well as Rightster, on this exciting new venture."
Howard Davies-Carr, father of Harry, Charlie and Jasper added: "We love that such a simple video has touched so many souls. We hope the boys can continue to lighten up peoples' lives in the years to come."
"This is a hugely exciting time for the online video industry and we are delighted to be collaborating with Viral Spiral to bring original content programming ideas to life," added Charlie Muirhead, Founder and CEO of Rightster. "The immense popularity of the 'Charlie bit my finger' video underscores the massive potential for content producers, publishers and brands to create, distribute and monetize original video content and demonstrates the potential to extend their reach to millions of online users globally."
Notes to editor: The original 'Charlie bit my finger' video was selected by EE to star in one of six TV spots with Kevin Bacon as part of their multi-million pound 4G advertising campaign developed by Saatchi & Saatchi, which probably helped to tip the number of views over the ½ billion milestone.

When it comes to IoT in the enterprise, namely the commercial building and hospitality markets, a benefit not getting the attention it deserves is energy efficiency, and IoT's direct impact on a cleaner, greener environment when installed in smart buildings. Until now clean technology was offered piecemeal and led with point solutions that require significant systems integration to orchestrate and deploy. There didn't exist a 'top down' approach that can manage and monitor the way a Smart Building actually breathes - immediately flagging overheating in a closet or over cooling in unoccupied ho...

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers. One aspect of the current public clouds that is slowing this cloud migration is cloud lock-in.

Outstanding Elvis impersonator! Highly recommended for any Elvis fan. The back up band was just as great as Elvis.

Enjoyed the show.
star this review starred report as inappropriate
This was not an impersonation, it was a tribute. What an awesome show. Great!!
Mark W. Curran is considered one of the most authentic and dynamic Elvis performers working today and a West Coast favorite. His recent appearances on The Tyra Banks Show and the KISS-FM morning show with Ryan Seacrest have catapulted him to local fame.
The Suspicious Minds Show Band is a dynamic and versatille group of musicians and singers that have backed up some of the biggest Elvis tribute artists in the business, and have traveled worldwide.
Don't miss this fun, highly entertaining show that brings back all the greatest hits of Elvis in an exciting live performance suitable for the whole family!

Pornography: A Thriller -- Film Review
The Bottom LineEmpty
It's helpful that the makers of "Pornography: A Thriller" have provided a description in the title because otherwise it would be hard to tell exactly what the hell the film is supposed to be. This ambitious, elliptical three-part meditation about the disappearance of a gay porn star wears its Lynch/Cronenberg aspirations a little too heavily. Despite a definite visual stylishness, the film is more baffling than intriguing.
In the first segment, we witness an interview being given by porn actor Mark Anton (Jared Grey) to a mysterious client who apparently has paid for the privilege; he's subsequently never heard from again. Cut to years later, when lovers Michael (Matthew Montgomery) and William (Walter Delmar) move into the apartment where Anton was last seen and become obsessed with discovering what happened to him. Finally, a contemporary porn star-turned-filmmaker (Pete Scherer) decides that the event will be the subject of his next film, with the result that he begins to have horrific nightmares.
Writer-director David Kittredge clearly has serious things on his mind about such subjects as voyeurism, the thin line between fantasy and reality, the link between sex and violence, etc., but whatever points he is trying to make are lost in the general muddle. Hampered by schematic characterizations, weak performances, sluggish pacing, an overly dense structure and propensity for self-indulgent affectations, "Pornography: A Thriller" ultimately is neither sexy nor thrilling.
Opens Friday, April 16 (Triple Fire Prods.)
Cast: Matthew Montgomery, Pete Scherer, Walter Delmar, Jared Grey, Dylan Vox, Larry Weissman, Nick Salamone, Steve Callahan, Akie Kotabe, Wyatt Fenner
Director-screenwriter: David Kittredge

ASUS launches P6T WS Professional X58 motherboard
Ideal foundation for a weighty workstation with the ASUS P6T WS Pro
Energy-saving alternative for multiple storage solutions
Sydney, Australia, December 2, 2008 - ASUS, manufacturer of world-leading motherboards, has released the new ASUS P6T WS Professional motherboard.
The P6T WS Professional is capable of delivering powerful and dependable performance, together with unparalleled I/O scalability for the most demanding tasks and future upgrades. With ASUS' innovative design, the P6T WS Professional is able to support both SLI and CrossFireX technologies for extreme and extraordinary graphics. Furthermore, it is equipped with 2 built-in SAS connectors and 2 onboard PCI-X slots to provide users flexibility in selecting multiple storage solutions. With such diverse features and functionality, as well as energy-efficiency through the ASUS EPU, the P6T WS Professional is a pure breed that delivers high performance and enhances work quality.
With built-in SLI/CrossFireX on Demand, the P6T WS Professional presents users with outstanding imagery. This revolutionary technology allows users to enjoy either SLI technology or CrossFireX support on the same motherboard, meaning users will be able to install up to two 2-way SLI-capable graphics cards and have the option to run a CrossFireX setup instead of an SLI one. Whatever the course, users are guaranteed amazing graphics performance for improved operations.
The P6T WS Professional also provides users with onboard Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) ports that support hard drive upgrade adaptability, while retaining full compatibility with the ASUS optional SASsaby card. Swift, safe and stable, SAS hard disks offer higher data transmission speeds and better data storage reliability in comparison to current SATA interfaces - users have more attractive choices for storage expansion and upgrade needs. Additionally, the P6T WS Professional provides support for users PCI-X devices, offering two PCI-X expansion slots which are backward compatible with PCI-based hardware and software.
As the focus is now leaning more towards energy efficiency, the P6T WS Professional comes equipped with ASUS exclusive EPU technology. This innovative feature controls six major components: the CPU, VGA card, memory, chipset, hard drives, and the CPU cooler/system fan. A database containing all Intel CPU profiles helps the EPU intelligently identify and select the correct CPU profile and makes the necessary adjustments for the best possible settings to ensure the paramount power management. Relating to the chipset and memory, the EPU also provides power savings through improved thermal capabilities, boosting system stability for longer component lifespan and advanced overclocking. As for VGA cards, the EPU automatically detects system loading and adjusts the VGA card's voltage and frequency - saving up to 37% VGA power during everyday computing. With clever monitoring of the hard disk and fans, power wastage is reduced during periods of idling data access helping to minimise hard drive and fan noise for quieter acoustics.
A more enjoyable and interesting ASUS workstation, during bootup, the Diag. LED checks key components (CPU, DRAM, VGA card and HDD) sequentially. If an error is found, the LED next to the error device will remain lit until the problem is solved. Once successfully booted up, the LEDs around the ASUS branding on the motherboard flicker brilliantly bright with a deep blue light. Much like the steady rhythm of deep breaths, the ASUS 'heartbeat', this flashing feature depicts the P6T WS Professional 'coming to life'.
What's more, the built-in Express Gate operating system makes a host of commonly used online applications available to users in just 5 seconds from bootup; including the web browser, instant messenger, Skype, photo manager, music player and online games to name a few. With this convenient, instant access to the internet, users can send that last-minute email before rushing off to work, browse the web in between appointments and reach friends and family via instant messenger, all in the blink of an eye.
Finally, the P6T WS Professional comes with a G.P. Diagnosis card - a useful tool which that provides prompt and precise system checks and displays errors on the LED display, helping users to quickly pinpoint errors. Connected on the TPM header, the G.P. Diagnosis card also offers great convenience by being near the onboard reset and power buttons for easy troubleshooting.
The ASUS P6T WS Professional motherboard is now available in Australia and New Zealand through selected computer resellers. Recommended retail price (inc GST) AU$699, NZ$819.

Phoenix Release New Single
Sounds like any of the singles from their last album, but just not as good or catchy.
Agreed this sounds more like a lateral move for them but it's the first single - don't expect them to jump out of the box with this. it lacks the immediacy of something like 1901 but i dig it. growed on me
Song is awesome
Digging: CHVRCHES - Every Open Eye
Yeah I love this.
not very good. running but no motion
Digging: Satan - Atom By Atom
Never thought I would say this about a Phoenix song, but this song suffers greatly from a mediocre chorus.
"Sounds like any of the singles from their last album, but just not as good or catchy."
it's a good song, but I was really really excited for this record. Now, well I guess I'd drop a "really" haha idk
I can dig it. Much less direct than their last album, not necessarily a bad thing though
Digging: The Wonder Years - No Closer to Heaven
Into it.
gottacheck this
i was disappointed but it may
Wow someone got told on the Youtube comments.
I don't really quite get the hype behind Phoenix, but they put out some enjoyable stuff. Can see myself 3.5ing an album of this song's quality.
Not too bad i guess.
Digging: The Dear Hunter - Act IV: Rebirth in Reprise
Exactly what I expected from them. As much as I'd love them to expand Love Like A Sunset experimentation, they're still catchy as fuck like this.
Digging: Young Thug - Slime Season
I feel like Pheonix as a whole produce fantastic full albums. One song from the album doesn't always stand out, but together they end up being fantastic. But I guess we'll have to see.
Great song.
Digging: Drug Church - Swell
don't really know them, this song is good though
i actually really liked that. more of the same really, but that's fine by me when they have such a winning formula.
yeah, they rule
it needs time to grow on me
"I feel like Pheonix as a whole produce fantastic full albums. One song from the album doesn't always stand out, but together they end up being fantastic."
They don't have a lot of songs I enjoy individually if they came up on shuffle, but if you listen to a string of them in a row, you can really appreciate the work. This song is pretty catchy, but I agree with most of the comments; nothing really ground-breaking
This song was stuck in my head all day. I personally think it's awesome.
I love it, i think its really catchy
Catchy catchy catchy! Coachella!

A quick-thinking Swedish golfer has told how she used a tee to extract venom from her leg after being bitten by a dangerous spider during a qualifying tournament in Australia.
The Swedish Golf Federation reported on their website how 24-year-old Daniela Holmqvist saw a redback spider on her lower leg and then felt a sharp pain above her left ankle.
An official for Golf Australia confirmed the incident was reported during the pre-qualifying tournament at the Federal Golf Club in Canberra's inner south on Tuesday morning.
Seeing her leg swell up, Holmqvist did not seek medical attention but instead grabbed a golf tee from her bag, pierced her skin and squeezed out as much venom as possible.
"A clear fluid came out," she said. "It wasn't the prettiest thing I've ever done but I had to get as much of it out of me as possible."
The Swedish federation added that, after the incident took place at the fourth hole, an unfazed Holmqvist went on to finish her round with officials monitoring her progress.
She finished the qualifying event for the ISPS Handa Australian Open in Canberra with a round of 74, just two shots shy of qualification.
Golf Australia Championships manager Therese Magdulski was at the tournament on the day, and was surprised at hearing reports of the bite over the radio.
"On the day it was very unusual, and I must admit when I heard she was bitten by a redback I thought 'oh my goodness'," Ms Magdulski said.
But, after seeking professional advice and speaking with Holmqvist, tournament officials said the only treatment required was an ice pack. A rules official also followed Homqvist for about two holes to ensure she was healthy enough to continue the round.
"She didn't ask for anything else from us," Ms Magdulski said.
"She certainly wasn't in any discomfort on the day."

Giana is a pretty organized boss. She makes sure she delegates all the duties to the proper employee and always keeps them on task. She thought Marco was the most qualified to take lead on a major project but this time more than anything it was because she was able to make out the outline of his throbbing cock through his slacks and decided to keep him late so she can take some DICKtation from him for a change. He was more than happy to obey his boss and get a RAISE in the process. She smothered his face and cock with her huge boobs and slid his dick in and out of her corporate cunt. Im sure she thinks a promotion is in order after such a thorough cock stroking.

'Hot Tub Time Machine' Helmer in Talks to Direct 'About Last Night' Remake
Steve Pink is in negotiations to direct the remake, which features a new script from "Bachelorette's" Leslye Headland.
Steve Pink, who most recently directed Hot Tub Time Machine, is in negotiations to direct About Last Night, Screen Gems' remake of the 1980s Rob Lowe-Demi Moore movie.
The company is making the movie with an all-black cast, headlined by rising star Kevin Hart along with Michael Ealy and Regina King.
The source material for both movies is David Mamet's 1974 play Sexual Perversity in Chicago. Edward Zwick directed the 1986 film.
Leslye Headland (Bachelorette, FX's Terriers) wrote the new script, which concerns a man and woman who enter into a relationship, but their friends get in the way.
Will Gluck, who directed and produced Easy A, starring Emma Stone, is producing the new movie.
Pink, who was known for screenplay work such as Grosse Pointe Blank and High Fidelity, made his directorial debut with 2006's Accepted, which starred Justin Long and a young Jonah Hill. He also is attached to direct Bad Santa 2.
Pink is repped by UTA, Mosaic and Morris Yorn.

SMA revises 2011 forecasts down; announces lay offs19. September 2011 | Industry & Suppliers, Markets & Trends | By: Becky Stuart
Weak demand in the solar inverter and roof systems businesses has forced SMA to revise its 2011 sales and earnings forecast downwards.
Due to "subdued" market demand and the ongoing "weak" commercial order situation, SMA says that it expects to reap sales of between €1.5 billion and €1.7 billion, as opposed to the previously forecast €1.5 billion and €1.9 billion.
The company has also significantly reduced its EBIT expectations, from a range of €315 million to €475 million, to between €220 million to €300 million.
In an industry note issued, analysts at Jefferies state, "The guidance cuts come on the back of SMA's meeting with its major clients over the weekend, and is a clear indicator that demand for solar is not picking up."
As a consequence of the reduced business activity, SMA says that it will have to lay off around 1,000 temporary employees by the end of the year.
Looking ahead to 2012, the company predicts either "stagnated" or "moderate" growth.
In a statement issued, the company said, "The subdued demand and weak commercial order situation can be explained by a number of factors.
"The debate surrounding the expansion of photovoltaic energy has unsettled end-customers just as much as the current euro and debt crisis. Pleasing development in the project business is testament to the current favorable general conditions for the expansion of photovoltaic energy.
"Investors are currently benefiting from historically low interest rates and a significant reduction in the specific costs of constructing a large-scale solar power plant."

Sorry to hear about SMA's situation. Probably SMA should have targeted the large commercial and utility market more?

Diplo Cancels Fort Lauderdale Gig, But He's Still Playing With Sleigh Bells in Miami
Late last week, the Crossfade staff (as well as our siblings over at County Grind) received a truly terrifying press release from Revolution Live reps.
The all-caps subject line screamed, "SLEIGH BELLS [AND DIPLO] CONCERT CHANGES LINE-UP!" And like most bad news, this message was accompanied by another 39 exclamation points.
The story: Diplo had decided to cancel his Fort Lauderdale gig with Sleigh Bells in order to spend Grammys weekend in La La Land.
Photo by Daniel De Las Casas
As County Grind explained on Saturday morning, "Sleigh Bells and black metal trio Liturgy [will] still [be] performing" at [Revolution] with other acts likely to join the lineup later."
Of course, though, we here at Crossfade worried that Mr. Wesley "Diplodocus" Pentz's trip to the West Coast would also cause the cancelation of his Miami show just three days later.
But turns out, we were freaking out for no reason. The Mad Decent boss's Biz 3 Publicity peeps assure us that "he'll still be at Grand Central on February 14."
So like Diplo himself migh say, "Dooo it!"
Diplo and Sleigh Bells with Liturgy. Tuesday, February 14. Grand Central, 697 N. Miami Ave., Miami. The party starts at 9 p.m. and tickets cost $25 plus fees via fla.vor.us. Ages 18 and up. Call 305-377-2277 or visit grandcentralmiami.com.

"Django Unchained's" White Abolitionist Vision
Stephen Kantrowitz
Jamie Foxx as Django Freeman in Django Unchained.No one could possibly mistake Quentin Tarantino for William Lloyd Garrison, but the director's Django Unchained nevertheless belongs to the tradition of antebellum white abolitionism. The film powerfully evokes a South, and a people, entirely under the sway of slaveholders' sadistic passions. This intellectual lineage explains why its depiction of slavery is so potent, and so wrong.

GLOBAL: Russian vodka boycott spreads through gay community - report
By Andy Morton | 30 July 2013
Russian vodka brands are being spurned by some gay communities
A boycott of Russian vodka in the wake of anti-homosexual legislation has spread across the world, according to reports.
Bars and nightclubs in Australia, the UK, the US and Canada have joined in the boycott of brands including Stolichnaya and Russian Standard, The Atlantic reported yesterday (29 July). The boycott started last week in Chicago after the Russian Government passed legislation banning the promotion of "non-traditional relationships".
One gay bar in London confirmed to just-drinks today that it is taking part in the boycott. The duty manager for Compton's of Soho's said the central London pub has taken Russian Standard off its shelves in protest against the move. The bar has no Stolichnaya stock at this time, the manager said.
Last week, the head of SPI Group, which owns the international rights to Stolichnaya, attacked the legislation and said the Luxembourg-based company has no links to the Russian Government. SPI's Stolichnaya is bottled in Latvia using Russian ingredients.
Russian Standard has yet to respond to a request for comment.
