Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga - Xbox 360 (Video Game)
If you like Lego and Star Wars, you can't go wrong here. Play through episodes I-VI by yourself or with a friend. You can drop in or out of another person's game at any time, which is nice. Fun to play with my 4-year-old. Only issue is the camera tries to keep both characters on screen at once. Patience is required if playing with a younger person that isn't quite as goal-oriented and just wants to explore every nook and cranny and jump around the levels. Parents need not worry, very family friendly with trademark Lego humor and sort of glosses over that whole Anakin-to-Vader transformation.
Also plenty of replay value with bonus levels and extra goals to achieve when revisiting levels with different characters. After completing a level in story mode, you can revisit in free play mode with any characters you've unlocked. Beyond your primary character selection, the make up of the rest of your party seems random. The game also resets you to Jedi Master Qui Gon and Padawan Obi Wan every time you start. Despite the small hiccups, it is a very enjoyable experience overall.

This is a non-provisional application of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/447,133, filed on Feb. 12, 2003, which is incorporated herewith by reference.
The present invention generally relates to an apparatus and method for simultaneous channel and optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) monitoring used in dense wavelength-division-multiplexing (DWDM) optical transmission systems.
Optical performance monitoring of power, wavelength, and optical signal-to-noise ratio is required in wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) networks for providing quality of service and assuring network survivability. While amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) is unpolarized, the data signal remains almost polarized during transmission. Hence polarization extinction (PE) has been employed to determine the OSNR after measuring the ASE level. In the approach based on the polarization extinction, monitoring of the OSNR was demonstrated by measuring the polarization extinction ratio of WDM signals.
The significant feature of the above PE technique is that this approach requires only a low-cost optical spectrum analyzer. However, a minute change in outside temperature could affect the polarization state of DWDM signals in transmission fiber. Thus, for the use in a practical network, it is necessary to adjust the polarization state of each channel. A simple technique that can be used to monitor the OSNR automatically is using the polarization-nulling method. This technique, based on the polarization-nulling method, was implemented by using a rotating quarter-wave plate and a rotating linear polarizer.
Thus, the signal power (together with the polarized ASE noise) was measured whenever the linearly polarized signal from the rotating quarter-wave plate was aligned to the rotating linear polarizer. The polarized ASE could be measured when the linear polarizer was in the orthogonal state with the linearly polarized signal obtained by the rotating quarter-wave plate. The OSNR therefore could be monitored by comparing the maximum and minimum values of the detected signals.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,223,705 discloses a measurement of an optical amplifier parameter with polarization by using a polarization controller and a linear polarizer for measuring the ASE noise and gain of an optical amplifier. By sequentially adjusting the polarization controller, sequential measurement from the linear polarizer can have the sequential output of minimum and maximum optical powers. The minimum optical power represents the half ASE value, while the maximum optical power represents sum of the half ASE and optical signal values. Therefore, this approach can measure the ASE noise and gain of an optical amplifier.
The above mentioned techniques utilize a combination of a polarization rotator and a linear polarizer to measure the OSNR. The measurement is based on the assumption that the signal is polarized while the noise is not. To improve the sensitivity of monitoring and enable multi-parameter monitoring, a compact module for simultaneous channel and OSNR monitoring is provided in the present invention.
The present invention has been made to overcome the above-mentioned drawback of conventional optical signal-to-noise ratio monitoring. The primary object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and method for simultaneous channel and OSNR monitoring. Accordingly, the apparatus of the invention comprises a polarization controller, a dithering signal, an electro-optic (E-O) modulator, a beam splitter, a photodetector and an optical element.
The OSNR is performed with the combination of the polarization controller and the E-O modulator. The E-O modulator also applies the dithering signal to a selected channel to improve the detected quality for both the photodetector and optical element. The OSNR and channel number are measured with the photodetector and the optical element. The E-O modulator is very polarization-selective to enable the needed function. In other words, it allows one of the two othogonal polarizations to pass through, and acts as a substantially linear polarizer. The optical element monitors multiple channels and its monitoring wavelength window can be easily tuned to cover different wavelength bands by adjusting its bias current.
The channel monitoring according to the invention covers a wide wavelength range, and the OSNR monitoring is accurate over a wide dynamic range. The apparatus can also be packaged into a compact module and integrated on a chip.
In a preferred embodiment, the apparatus of the invention uses a light-emitting diode (LED) sensor as the optical element for recognizing the channel wavelength from the induced junction voltage across the LED diode. The LED sensor provides many advantages over the channel monitoring approaches, including the use of an optical filter, double detectors, and interferometers, etc. It is also superior to the semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) or Fabry-Perot laser diode (FPLD) sensor that exploits the same detection principle as a LED. A LED sensor is very low-cost and monitors a wide range of wavelengths at a given bias. The monitoring wavelength window can be easily adjusted to achieve the best performance by changing its bias current.
The present invention demonstrates the method for simultaneous channel and OSNR monitoring by comprising the steps of the operating principle for the apparatus. A portion of power is first tapped out from a selected channel and fed into the polarization controller then the E-O modulator. The sequential polarization control is performed with the optical signal fed into the polarization controller by sequentially adjusting the polarization controller. A dithering signal of the E-O modulator is provided to improve the detection sensitivity. The beam splitter then splits the dithered optical signal into two clusters. One is provided for the photodetector to measure the OSNR value. The other is provided for the optical element to monitor the optical channel.
In the invention, the optical channel recognition and wavelength drift are demonstrated with the experimental results of eight DWDM channels of 100 GHz spacing. The invention also shows the measured optical spectra at the output of the E-O modulator, and the outputs for two orthogonal polarization states are compared. Experimental results indicate that the polarization extinction ratio is 37.9 dB and 36.7 dB for a single 2.5 Gbps and 10 Gbps channel, respectively. The OSNR value can be calculated from the detected maximal and minimal voltages by adjusting the polarization controller. The invention also demonstrates the measured OSNR is very consistent with the data measured by the OSA, and it can measure the OSNR up to 31 dB while the error is kept within 0.5 dB.
The foregoing and other objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become better understood from a careful reading of a detailed description provided herein below with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
The present invention can be understood in more detail by reading the subsequent detailed description in conjunction with the examples and references made to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
The gist of the present invention is using a polarization-selective electro-optic modulator and an optical channel recognizing unit for OSNR monitoring and channel recognition in DWDM networks.
According to this invention, the optical element 306 may be a LED sensor, SOA or optical filter plus photodiode. The polarization-selective E-O modulator may be a linear polarizer in serial with an E-O modulator or an E-O modulator with a structure that one of the polarizations is lost as it propagates in the modulator It is also notable that all the elements in the apparatus of the invention can be packaged into a compact module and integrated on a chip.
Referring to
With such an E-O modulator and the polarization controller, the channel OSNR can be measured in a similar way as the polarization nulling approach. On the same time, the E-O modulator applies the dithering signal 302 to the selected channel to improve the detection sensitivity and dynamic range for both the photodetector 305 and LED sensor 406. The dithered optical signal 308 is split into two clusters by a coupler 404 with a ratio of 50:50 in the embodiment. These two clusters are respectively provided for the photodetector 305 and the LED sensor 406. The OSNR and channel number are measured with the photodetector 305 and the LED 406 sensor, respectively.
The LED sensor 406 is used for recognizing the channel wavelength from the induced junction voltage across the LED diode. It is the same as the wavelength detection approach that utilizes the wavelength-dependent transparent properties in a FPLD or a SOA.
Like a laser diode or SOA, the LED has a gain material of which the transparent current decreases as the wavelength moves to the long-wavelength side. The junction voltage across the electrodes of the LED is almost linearly proportional to the difference between the transparent current and the bias current. It is clear that the induced voltage varies with the wavelength change and can be used for detecting the wavelength.
The LED sensor can monitor multiple channels and its monitoring wavelength window can be easily tuned to cover different wavelength bands by adjusting its bias current. For instance, the induced voltage of an edge-emitting LED (PD-LD model PLD E15-506) is shown in
The LED sensor can provide many advantages over the previously demonstrated channel monitoring approaches, including the use of an optical filter, double detectors, and interferometers, etc. It is also superior to the SOA or FPLD sensor that exploits the same detection principle as a LED. The LED sensor is very low-cost and can monitor a wide range of wavelengths at a given bias current. The monitoring wavelength window can be easily adjusted to achieve the best performance by changing its bias current.
Though a low cost FPLD was demonstrated to monitoring DWDM channels with satisfactory performance, it is subject to the voltage resonance induced from the facet reflection, which requires choosing an appropriate LD length and careful adjustment of the bias current. The only concern for using a LED sensor is that it may require temperature control. Since the LED needs to simply distinguish the channels from each other rather than to accurately detect the channel wavelength, the detection window is relatively large, so it does not need tight temperature control in the invention.
According to this invention, the maximal voltage measured by the photodiode indicates the signal power plus the half noise power, while the minimal voltage corresponds to half of the noise power if the signal is completely suppressed by the polarized modulator. Thus, the OSNR monitoring is performed with the combination of the polarization controller 301 and the substantially linear polarized E-O modulator 303. The E-O modulator 303 also applied a single-tone sinusoidal signal to the input signal and noise to improve the detected quality for both monitoring paths. The frequency of the dithering signal 302 is 10 kHz in the experiments The channel wavelength is then detected by the LED sensor 406 which is followed by a narrow bandpass filter to reject the detection noise.
The following further describes the operating principle of the invention for simultaneous channel and OSNR monitoring. The sequentially adjusting the polarization controller 301 is performed with the optical signal 307 fed into the polarization controller 301. Then the polarization controller 301 switches the polarization states to where the maximal or minimal value occurs at the output of the E-O modulator 303. By such sequentially adjusting the polarization controller, the photodetector 305 can detect the measured minimum optic power Pmin and maximum optic power Pmax.
The OSNR value can be calculated from the detected maximal and minimal voltages by switching the two orthogonal polarization states.
From the above, the key components of the present invention are the E-O modulator and LED sensor for OSNR monitoring and channel recognition. In an experiment, this invention chooses a packaged Mach-Zehnder amplitude modulator made by the AT&T (model M2122AA). The E-O modulator is pigtailed with standard single-mode fiber (SMF) on both ends. It is very polarization-selective and has a polarization extinction ratio larger than 30 dB. The LED sensor is a 1.55 μm edge-emitting LED.
Generally speaking, the apparatus and method for simultaneous channel and OSNR monitoring by using a polarization-selective E-O modulator and a low-cost optical element have demonstrated the following advantages: (1) low cost; (2) compact; it can be packaged into a compact module and integrated on a chip; (3) the channel monitoring can cover a wide wavelength range and is tunable; and (4) the OSNR monitoring can be accurate over a wide dynamic range.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the details described thereof. Various substitutions and modifications have been suggested in the foregoing description, and others will occur to those of ordinary skill in the art. Therefore, all such substitutions and modifications are intended to be embraced within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

Of course it's a little disappointing that we somehow weren't able to get anything done, but everybody around us that's in contention somehow–and even some teams that aren't in contention, like the Red Sox–somehow figured it out. But there's still time to get stuff done. We still have a pretty good team put together and we're hoping to get the guys that are hurt back and that'll be a good injection of talent for us down the road. … But it's a little bit of disappointment..
Okay Jose, we'll trade. Sox get your record and you have to blow your team up.

The Jays could have really used Headley (and it seems that the Yankees didn't give up much for him).5. Walt Davis Posted: August 01, 2014 at 07:29 PM (#4762830)
That's one move I wish the Jays had made.
I'm also surprised they didn't make a move. But the whole deadline surprised me in how much ML-level talent we saw changing hands in both directions (or all three in the Price trade). Especially with some guys hurt, I'm not sure they had any ML talent to spare (I'm not sure the Tigers did either but there you have it) so they probably would have had to give up prospects to get something done.6.

I suppose maybe they could have grabbed Price with Rasmus going to Seattle and ... Drew Hutchison to the Rays?
That's the problem with wanting to get a deal done for the sake of doing a deal...you have to have something someone wants but still not hurt your team by trading it.
What were the Jays going to trade that had value, and what would they want to get back in return?
Who do they trade to get more pitching, Rasmus? What is he going to get you?
If the Jays weren't going to trade Stroman, and they seem happy to hang on to Sanchez, who gets dealt?

We got a quote (which included everything, except the fuel) from Economy Car Rentals, and as seems to be normal with all hire car companies, extras are added that are not asked for. So what initially was a full quote for £155 became £207. You are blinded by technicalities and other ploys to get more out of you.
It is about time this industry was cleaned up as these things do not seem to happen in other trades.Despite the price increases, the car was fine, did the job, I took a full tank back and didn't get charged, but if you get a price how come it is never stuck to?.

Inspired by pope, Catholic youth experience new-time religion
It was part rock concert, part Catholic Church and all about religion Thursday at the Anaheim Convention Center with a deafening rally, Gospel-like music, loud stomping—and a call to tweet.
"It's a whole different experience from what they're used to in church," said Tustin resident Julio Vazquez, who brought about 15 teens from the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Santa Ana to join some 15,000 Catholic teens for the first day of a four-day Religious Education Congress sponsored by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles .
"It tells the kids there's more to church than going to Sunday Mass," said Leticia Soto, a chaperone with Notre Dame High School, a private Catholic school in Riverside.
On the first anniversary of Pope Francis's election to lead the world's 1.2 billion Catholics, the pope's words and image seemed to be every where.
Even before they were asked to tweet @pontifex with #LALovesPopeFrancis, some of the teens already were pulling out their cellphones. Many explained they were drawn to the Catholic Church because of the new pope.
"I'm more involved because the pope inspired me," said Giselle Mercado, 16, a Lancaster High School student.
Meagan Aurit, 17, who arrived with a group from the Sacred Heart Catholic Church Youth Ministry in Lancaster, called the pope: "amazing."
"He accepts everyone, no matter what their sexuality," said Aurit, referring to the pope's comment last year about sexual orientation: "Who am I to judge?"
Nine teens who traveled from Mexicali, Mexico echoed Aurit.
"He seems more modern. And he communicates with the youth," said Fernanda Bejarano, 17, of Instituto Salvatierra.
"His heart is more open," said her friend, Marlene Marroquin.
Gabriela Covarrubias, a chaperone with a group from St. Thomas the Apostle in Riverside, credited the Pope with influencing youth and drawing them back to the church.
Sister Edith Prendergast, director of the L.A. Diocese's Office of Religious Education, said it's too early to "make big statements" about the impact of the new pope and whether he's helping to attract youth. "But I think he brings a human dimension to our faith and a connection to God in all of our lives, and in the ordinary."
To make the event more meaningful to youth, Catholic leaders incorporated music and technology into Thursday's event. Divided into large groups, the teens also were invited to choose among workshops that dealt with relationships, prayer through pop music and making a difference in the world.
Danny Do, 15, a member of St. Cecilia Catholic Church in Tustin, said he attended a workshop about dealing with stress, in which there was discussion about breathing exercises but also about "trusting God."
"My religion serves as a motivator and as a source of encouragement, so I feel confident," Do said. "I try to incorporate all the different aspects of religion into my life."
Katie Arial, 15, said her confirmation class at the Sacred Heart Academy at La Caňada Flintridge deals with a wide-range of issues, from how to deal with bullying to identity theft to protecting one's self on social media.
Soto, the Riverside chaperone, said the Catholic Church "has always been the same, but you have to go back and reach young people and show them there's more to the church."
The conference's annual Youth Day is one way to reach them, she said.
Linda Smith, a chaperone for youths from St. Bartholomew Catholic Church in Long Beach, said: "Where else in the world are you going to get 15,000 Catholic kids getting together? It's a great experience."

Scott G. Winterton, Scott G. Winterton, Deseret News
I recently attended my first and hopefully last political caucus. It was the Republican caucus, but the Democratic caucus was likely much the same. What a waste of time. There is no possible way that the state or county delegates can adequately represent my views. Neither will I stand as a delegate and be subject to the constant harassment of candidates seeking my vote.
The article titled "A Better Nominating Process" (Jan. 8) by former Gov. Michael Leavitt should be read by every voter. It states, "A group of people in both political parties … understand the system and have learned to use it as a way to exercise extensive influence over the outcome of elections. In fact, they will argue the system is best controlled by people like them who care enough to show up at caucus meetings."
I blame the Republican Party for this outrageous and messy nominating process. It controls the state Legislature, which refuses to make the needed changes. Although a conservative Utah Republican, I will vote a straight Democratic ticket until this vitally important issue is resolved.

The Amazing Life Evolution of Bee
Yellow and black in color, bees are a form of flying insects that are closely related to ants and wasps. These insects are seen as attractive by kids when they see it on pictures. However, apart from their attractiveness, bees are also known to have a lot of other characteristics and features. Interested to know more about these wonderful creatures? Read on.
Introducing Bees
Basically, bees are highly recognized with their role in pollination as well as for the production of beeswax and honey. Bees are the monophyletic lineage in the Apoidea superfamily,which is currently recognized as clade Anthophila. Bees are known to have just about 20,000 species in 7 to 9 considered families, though a lot of them are no yet described and their actual number is possibly higher. They have been located on each continent excluding Antarctica, in each habitat on earth that has flowering plants that are insect pollinated.
Bees are bespoke for feeding on pollen and nectar, the former basically for protein source and other essential nutrients and the latter basically as the energy source. The majority of pollen has been utilized as a food source for larvae.

Bees hold a long complex tongue known as proboscis, which allows them to acquire the nectar from various flowers. Practically, they are supported with an antenna that is almost universally created from twelve segments for females and thirteen segments for males. It is common to the superfamily. All bees come with 2 pairs of wings, having the back pair being smaller among the two. In the very low number of species, a certain caste has fairly short wings, which make flight impossible or difficult, yet none of them are wingless.
Tiny stingless bee species are also found. They have the workers that are less than 0.079in or 2mm long. The biggest known bee that is found on earth is the Megachile Pluto. It is a leafcutter bee, having female species that can reach the length of 1.5in or 39mm. Members of sweat bees or the Halictidae family is known to be the most typical form of bee within the Northern Hemisphere, but they are small and normally mistaken for flies or wasps.
The most well known species of bees is the European honey bee. As its name suggests, this bee specie produces honey just like what other kinds of bees do. The human management for these species has been recognized as apiculture or beekeeping. Bees are the most preferred meals of a bee-eater bird with the scientific name of Merops apiaster. Some other typical predators of bees are mockingbirds, dragonflies, beewolves and kingbirds.
Evolution of Bees
The known bee ancestors were wasps within the Crabronidae family and so other insects' predators. The exchange from an insect prey toward pollen might have lead from the prey insect consumption that were only flower visitors and were partly covered with some pollen on their feeding to a wasp larva. Similar evolutionary scene may have also taken place in the vespoid wasps in which the group termed as pollen wasps obtained evolution from such predatory ancestors as well.
The earliest flowers that were pollinated by animals had been pollinated by certain insects like beetles. Therefore, the phenomenon for insect pollination was pretty established long before the first appearance of bees. What made them different is due to the fact that bees have been specialized for insect pollination, with physical and behavioral modifications that particularly improve pollination. In addition to, there are normally more effective when it comes to accomplishing the tasks as compared with any other pollinating insects like flies, pollen wasps, beetles and butterflies. The looks of these floral specialists have been assumed to have triggered the angiosperms' adaptive radiation, and in return, the bees themselves.
Among the groups of living bee, Colletidae, a short-tongued family of bees has conventionally been determined as the most "primitive, while sister taxon to the bees' remainder. However, during the 21st century, a few researchers have asserted that the family Dasypodaidae being a basal group, the wasp-like mouthpart short of colletids as the outcome of the convergent evolution, instead of being indicative of the plesiomorphic condition. Such subject has still placed under debate, while the phylogenetic connections among the families of bees are still poorly understood.
Semisocial and Eusocial Bees
Bees might be solitary or they might live in different kinds of communities. One of the most advanced among these communities is known as the eusocial colonies, located among the stingless bees, honey bees and bumble bees. Many different kinds of sociality are assumed to have separately evolved a number of times in the bees.
In other species, clusters of females living together might be sisters, and when there is some sense of division of labor in the group, they are then considered to be in semisocial community.
- Bumblebees
Also known as Bombus Pratorum, Bombus Terrestris etc, bumblebees are eusocial within the way that is a bit the same to the eusocial Vespidae like hornets. Its queen initiates her own nest, which is different from other queens of stingless bees and honey bees that initiate their nests through swarms within the association of the big worker force. Typically, bumblebee colonies consist between 50 and 200 bees at the highest population that takes place in middle to late summer.
- Stingless Bees
Very different in behavior, stingless bees are all highly eusocial. They work with intricate next architecture, perennial colonies and mass provisioning.
- Honey Bees
Genus Apis is the original honey bees that are debatably the most complicated social behavior found among the species of bees. It is also a well known species, while being one of the mostly recognized among all insects.
Aside from eusocial and semisocial bees, there are also communal and solitary bees in the types of species. You may also feel interested to know more about nocturnal bees and cleproparasitic type of bees. The evolution of bees is continuously growing up until now. This makes studying and exploring more about the life and ways of bees really interesting. In fact, there is an implemented legislation such as the Bees Act 1980 of UK, which has been created to stop the extinction of bees.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Jan. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The NFL Playoffs have gotten off to an exciting start, and with NFL Connect, football fans are turning every play in the live game into an opportunity to win big and get access to one-of-a-kind rewards.
NFL Connect is an innovative mobile game app that marries the simplicity of bingo with fantasy football and is played alongside live NFL games. The game offers users the ability to earn in-game credits to exchange for one-of-a-kind NFL fan experiences such as a video chat with NFL superstars Patrick Willis from the San Francisco 49ers and DeAngelo Williams from the Carolina Panthers.
NFL Connect brings fans to their feet, completely engaging them with the on-field action while they seek to score their first "Connect." Each user receives a unique game board of 16 live-game events ranging from touchdown to quarterback sack. The board fills up as game action plays out in real-time, and users may swap or modify their board's events to improve their chances of "connecting" four event tiles in a row. Along the way users interact with both their opponents and friends through the game's real-time social messaging feature.
"Through NFL Connect, we are getting football fans more involved with the action on their mobile devices," said Daren Trousdell, CEO of OneUp Sports. "The game's innovative style of play and engaging social features add a new dimension to watching the NFL Playoffs."
By placing first in the game, players earn credits that can be redeemed instantly for VIP experiences or unique player interactions. The simplicity of the game and social features make it perfect for any football fan, young or old.
"NFL Connect is a compelling game experience that will allow our fans to engage with the Playoffs in a new way," said David Healy, Director of Media Strategy and Business Development for the NFL. "We are excited to see the matchups play out both on the field and across fans' mobile devices through Super Bowl XLVIII."
NFL Connect was one of the Top-25 sports apps this season and is part of the OneUp Sports network which connects users with millions of other passionate sports fans from around the world. The Connect game platform has been successful at driving impressive mobile engagement across the portfolio of games it powers, with users spending upwards of 60 minutes per game and making over 50 million game moves during the over 30,000 live-events delivered to date.
NFL Connect is available to download for free on iTunes, Google Play and the Windows Marketplace. More information can be found at www.1up.me.

The idea of comparing data in motion (at the sensor level) to data at rest (in a Big Data server warehouse) with predictive analytics in the cloud is very appealing to the industrial IoT sector.

Silver Lake and Microsoft bid for a minority stake in Yahoo
Wants to bolster existing search deal
AILING INTERNET GIANT Yahoo is pondering an above market value offer from Silver Lake for a minority stake in the firm.
Yahoo has been looking for a buyer ever since former CEO Carol Bartz got the boot, with private equity firm Silver Lake and Microsoft the favourites to pick up the once mighty web portal. Now Bloomberg is reporting that a Silver Lake led consortium has bid $16.60 a share for a minority stake in Yahoo, valuing the firm at $20.6bn.
Silver Lake's consortium includes Microsoft, which bid in-excess of $33 a share back in 2008, when then CEO and founder Jerry Yang rebuffed Microsoft's advances. The latest offer, although for a minority stake, is believed to be an attempt to secure the 10-year search deal between Microsoft and Yahoo.
According to Bloomberg's source, Yahoo will be discussing Silver Lake's offer later today. The decision might not be clear cut, however, with Yahoo's Asian partner Alibaba Group also interested in buying Yahoo if only to buy back the 40 per cent of its equity that Yahoo owns.
The Yahoo takeover saga has overshadowed other internet acquisitions such as AOL. With Yahoo attracting such high profile bidders, a bidding war could break out, but given Yahoo's prolonged slide into web irrelevance, it is unlikely that the company will get anywhere near the $33 a share offer Microsoft laid down three years ago in a desperate bid to catch up with Google. µ

We're Going Global
We've had some lovely news from Camp Hill RFC today, well done Jim and Margaret: –
'As many of you may (or may not) know, two of the Club's 'stalwarts' (Jim and Margaret Goddard) spend much of their time jetting around the World visiting all manner of exotic locations.
What many of you may (or may not) know is that unlike most of us, their visits are not for a bit of R&R on a sun kissed beach, or to lounge around a pool with a beer, but, generally they're visiting people far less fortunate than us to deliver much needed clothes, toys and general day to day items that we take for granted.
The Club was really happy to provide last season's sponsored City Office Interiors Ltd XV kit to take with them on their trip to The Gambia.
Here's a picture with what could turn out to be The Club's first overseas team!!
Well done to them both!'

KStew Reaches Her Limit With The Paps, The Resulting GIF Is Awesome
Sometimes, when you are down, you've got to get up (to get down). Case in point: Even though Kristen Stewart is clearly not psyched about her every move being tracked by a horde of hungry paps (who could blame her?), but this sequence of the actress giving them the bird looks an awful lot like a lil' boogie (as Reddit points out).
Sure, Robsten is officially over — but that won't stop the photogs from buzzing and lurking and stalking, leading to Kristen to get a little explosive with the hand gestures. When the series is assembled together, her minor outburst looks a little bit like an interpretative dance. Or some sort of jig. Just put on the new Daft Punk album and let KStew get her groove on. Weirdly rewarding, no? (E! Online)
