Sony Rumored to Buy BeOS
In an unprecedented corporate buyout, Sony USA put an offer on the table to buy the BeOS corporation Tuesday morning. While BeOS representatives were unavailable for comment, we were able to contact Sony's CBL, Adam Markley to get some more details on the exciting proposal.
"We're just not willing to have another company with a 4 letter name take the spotlight", said Adam. "Due to the recent surge in BeOS sales and development, we couldn't afford to let them steal our thunder."
When asked if there were other concerns surrounding the BeOS rise, Adam only commented, "No, it's really the 4 letter thing. If Arby's didn't have that apostrophe 's', we'd be having a completely different discussion today."

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Italy's government won three parliamentary confidence votes on its budget plans on Wednesday, paving the way for a sales tax hike to help mend public finances and taking a step towards clearing one of its last big hurdles before elections next year.
President Giorgio Napolitano, who will decide the date of the election and has indicated March is likely, has directed that the law must be passed before the end of the government's term.
The budget, enshrined in a so-called Stability Law, is central to Prime Minister Mario Monti's efforts to lower Italy's public deficit to 1.8 per cent of output next year from a targeted 2.6 per cent in 2012.
Italy's economy has been the most sluggish in the European Union for more than a decade, fuelling investor concerns about its ability to bring down its public debt of 126 per cent of GDP.
The government called the confidence votes to speed approval of the Stability Law, which is expected to be one of the final pieces of major legislation approved under Monti before Italy gears up for a national election.
Following Wednesday's three votes in the lower house of parliament on different articles in the law, deputies give their definitive approval on Thursday and the package will then go to the Senate for a final reading.
As part of the wider budget package, the government also signed a deal with employers and unions on Wednesday that will unblock 2.1 billion euros (NZ$3.3 billion) set aside to allow tax breaks on productivity bonuses over the 2013-15 period.
The country's largest union, the leftwing CGIL, rejected the accord, but Monti welcomed the deal, which is intended to address the chronic problem of Italy's lack of competitiveness, a major factor in its weak economic track record.
''This is an important step forward for economic recovery,'' he told a news conference.
The agreement would guarantee national collective contracts but would provide greater incentives for company-level wage agreements in a bid to boost flexibility.
It would attach productivity clauses to certain types of company contracts and would allow greater room for manoeuvre over conditions linked to productivity including working hours.
Monti agreed at the end of October to overhaul the first draft of the budget legislation by replacing a planned income tax cut with a reduction in payroll taxes paid by employers.
The package still includes a one percentage point rise in the highest value-added tax (VAT) rate, which will go into effect next July, bringing it to 22 per cent. The lower 10 per cent rate will not be increased as previously planned.
Ahead of the spring election, political parties have been pressing for some easing in the austerity medicine imposed by Monti since he took office a year ago to head off a financial crisis and restore order to public finances.
Tax hikes and spending cuts imposed to rein in the country's massive debt have exacerbated a recession in the euro zone's third-biggest economy, and increasingly been the focus of street protests and political attacks from the opposition.
With unemployment at almost 11 per cent, the highest in records going back to 2004, Monti has been under growing pressure to do more to stimulate growth.
Italy's economy shrank a smaller-than-expected 0.2 per cent in the third quarter of 2012 compared with the second, meaning the current recession has dragged on as long as one in 2008-09 at the height of the global financial crisis.

Things I wished I knew prior to going on this trip:
1. take cash to purchase the cd of photos... they are great action shots that you can't get anywere else. (We only had enough cash for the van trip back to the resort.)
2. wear a bathing suit to swim/wade in the cave (we missed that on the info, but waded anyway - it was very refreshing)
3. they provide water shoes, but if you have your own, bring them
4. no snacks provided on tour, but available for purchase (bring your own)
5. water was provided and very cold! :)
6. long van ride from resorts to ranch - but well worth it!
*We we called for pick up time, was told it wasn't actually reserved and we needed to both reserve the pick up and pay an additional $10 USD for transportation from the resort to the location. (Were told could not drive ourselves.) Very, very dissapointe in this undisclosed fee.

Umm Salamah said: I heard the Prophet (SAAS) saying, "There is no Muslim afflicted with calamity who says 'To Allâh we belong and to Him is our return; O Allâh reward me for this calamity and compensate me with what is better for me,' but Allâh will compensate him with what is better for him."

Cara Delevingne's Red-Carpet Look (Literally) Packs A Surprise
Photo: David Fisher/REX USA.
To say Cara Delevingne marches to the beat of her own drum would be a mass understatement. In fact, part of why she's so rad is because she's practically leading her own one-woman band. Sometimes, that means selfies on the runway. And, other times, this.
Arriving at the Elle Style Awards this evening, Delevingne came dressed in a beautiful, black vintage gown. It's ethereal, sexy, brimming with a bit of dark glamour, but Cara wouldn't just leave it at that. The model who's been killing it on the runways of London Fashion Week seriously amped up the edge. Instead of purely cascading waves, she opted for an asymmetric side braid. Her plunging V-neck and dress slit practically met at her middle. And, at the back of the gown proved to be the most delightful accessory of all. Click over to see what she's packing.
While not exactly the most atypical handbag choice for Cara, this black Mulberry backpack is certainly an unexpected one considering the Brit's elegant ensemble. (Although, not all that unexpected. She did just launch a collection with the brand.) But, we're not complaining. After all, when was the last time you spotted a mini rucksack on the red carpet looking quite as chic as this?

Gold price up Rs 360 on stockists buying, global cues
New Delhi: Both the precious metals, gold and silver, bounced back in the national capital Thursday on stockists buying in tandem with a firming global trend.
While gold recovered sharply by Rs 360 to Rs 28,550 per 10 grams, silver gained Rs 500 to Rs 44,700 per kg.
Traders said stockists buying in line with a firm global trend mainly led an recovery move in both gold and silver prices.
Gold in New York, which normally sets the price trend on the domestic front, rose by USD 10.20 to USD 1,388.40 an ounce and silver by 0.48 percent to USD 21.79 an ounce.
Besides, investors shifting their funds from weakening equity to rising bullion also supported the uptrend.
On the domestic front, gold of 99.9 and 99.5 percent rebounded by Rs 360 each to Rs 28,550 and Rs 28,350 per 10 grams, respectively. It had lost Rs 325 yesterday.
Sovereigns followed suit and rose by Rs 100 to Rs 24,400 per piece of eight grams.
Similarly, silver ready recovered by Rs 500 to Rs 44,700 per kg and weekly-based delivery by Rs 420 to Rs 43,910 per kg. The white metal had lost Rs 490 in the previous session.
Silver coins also spurted by Rs 1,000 to Rs 80,000 for buying and Rs 81000 for selling of 100 pieces.

I have been a professional economist since i was a little boy -- about 75 years. I lived through the Great Depression, watched poor people go hungry and steal used food out of our garbage. I had my $60 in gold nationalized by FDR. I was in the militia at the age of 12. I was drafted into the marines for Korea. I have made several million in my life and lost most of it in badly timed speculations. I do not think anyone can foretell the future. Bet on the worst -- it's bound to happen. Very few young people will starve quietly. Long guns and gold.

About Lou:
I started my investment career at Morgan Stanley, where I helped direct over $1 billion in in institutional capital. After growing bored with the monotony of asset allocation studies, investment policy statements, manager searches and evaluations, and Retirement Plan Service Provider RFPs (among other things), I left and co-founded Wall Street Daily, which quickly became one of the web's largest financial publishers with a daily circulation of more than 700,000 readers.
In 2014, I founded Disruptive Tech Research to pursue my investing passion, and fill the void in the market for high-quality, 100% independent research on disruptive technologies.
I have been fortunate to appear regularly on CNBC's Closing Bell, as well as be mentioned in other media outlets, including in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Morningstar and MarketWatch. I earned my MBA from the Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College, which is also where I met my beautiful wife.

Ellen Brown is an attorney, president of the Public Banking Institute, and the author of twelve books. Shedeveloped her research skills as an attorney practicing civil litigation in Los Angeles. In "Web of Debt," she turned those skills to an analysis of the Federal Reserve and "the money trust." She showed how this private cartel has usurped the power to create money from the people themselves, and how we the people can get it back. In "The Public Bank Solution," her latest book, she explores the public banking model globally and historically as an equitable and efficient solution to our banking woes. Her earlier books focused on the pharmaceutical cartel that gets its power from "the money trust." They include "Forbidden Medicine," "Nature's Pharmacy" (co-authored with Dr. Lynne Walker), and "The Key to Ultimate Health" (co-authored with Dr. Richard Hansen).

Publisher of options newsletter TerrysTips.com since 2001.. Thirty years experience trading options virtually every day. including stint as seat holder and market maker on the C.B.O.E. MBA from Harvard Business School and DBA from Univ. of Virginia Darden School. Author of Making 36%: Duffer's Guide to Breaking Par in the Market Every Year, In Good Years and Bad (4th revision - 2012) and Coffee Can Investing: A Better Idea Than Mutual Funds in an IRA or 401(K), 2014.
TerrysTips.com is a newsletter that carries out eight different option portfolios which many subscribers mirror on their own or through auto-trade at several brokers who make all the same trades in individual customer accounts. Each portfolio offers something different (bullish, neutral, or bearish),and different underlyings (GOOG, SPY, SVXY, and other individual companies).
In 2005, the S.E.C. brought an action against Terry Allen, claiming that he was managing money for people without being a registered investment advisor because of the auto-trade service offered by several brokers who placed trades in their customer accounts based on Terry's Tips newsletter recommendations. A second complaint was for a single statement on his website that they believed was incorrect and therefore fraudulent.
Although two large law firms assured Dr. Allen that if he went to court on the first issue, he would win because there was a Supreme Court decision stating that investment newsletters are exempt from registration requirements - it would be a violation of their First Amendment rights. However, they estimated that his legal expenses would be greater than settling with the S.E.C. (and a year or two of his time tied up in court proceedings), and both firms recommended that he accept the settlement offer while not admitting any guilt.
The second issue (fraud) involved a single statement that was true when it was written but a couple of years later, option prices fell to 10-year lows, and it was no longer true. The S.E.C. argued that the statement was not removed from the website in a timely enough fashion.
For the past eight years since the settlement with the S.E.C., Dr. Allen has have been publishing the Terry's Tips newsletter (and recommendations are executed in customer accounts at thinkorswim by TD Ameritrade through their Auto-Trade program), and the S.E.C. has not objected to any of his activities.
Most recently, Markos Kaminis predicted the stock market correction of 2015 through a series of prescient reports in August. (see proof here: http://seekingalpha.com/article/3482226-investor-who-predicted-the-stock-market-correction-offers-an-update ) Markos warned his followers to stop buying dips in stocks, raise cash levels for a near-term collapse and special buying opportunity, and he suggested aggressive investors or those in need of portfolio hedge use a volatility instrument to do so. He profited 30-fold in a matter of days on his contrarian view in August.
Markos N. Kaminis generated a 23% average annual return on "Strong Buy" stock selections over 5 years and ranked 2nd among a group of 60 analysts in-house as a Senior Equity Analyst over a seven-year period at Standard & Poor's. After proving his value in-house, he was promoted into a special role as an idea generator, supporting the portfolios of institutional clients as well as driving performance within S&P's recommended lists and portfolios. At times, Markos was responsible for up to 10% of the firm's entire "Strong Buy" list and is due a great deal of credit for the group's outstanding performance during his tenure.
Markos followed a group of 30-40 Small and Mid-Cap firms, and was charged with finding new buy and sell candidates across industry sectors. He generated a 23% average annual return over five years on his "Strong Buy" recommendations, and 26% over three years ended 2004. He was ranked 1st of 60 analysts in-house for his "Strong Buy" performance over 4 years (2nd over 5).
Markos also authored IPO research and wrote for high-level newsletters, The Outlook, Equity Insights and Emerging Opportunities, as well as for BusinessWeek Online. He represented his firm as an analytical expert commentator for major media, including television, Internet and through quotes and interviews in reputable publications.
What I want you to know about my plans: After witnessing the worst of Wall Street firsthand and having the ideal vision of my childhood career choice corrupted by reality, I almost switched to full-time charity work at age 40 and still have plans for a non-profit. However, I've since determined to put my stock selection skills, earned through blood, sweat and tears, to better use, and to make my own way. I've determined to give investors something rare, a dignified partner who can manage money with integrity and a clear conscience about the degree of due diligence behind investment decisions... someone who cares more about your money than your wife. I hope readers will become followers of my column here & at my blog, so that when our numbers are substantial, we might start an investment fund or two.
Prior to his Wall Street career, Mr. Kaminis spent time in the back-office, as a mutual fund accountant, where he managed for a time the work of two men. Before this, from age 11 to age 25, he worked as a carpenter's apprentice and carpenter with his father, in both commercial and residential projects. Mr. Kaminis has an intimate knowledge of the real estate and construction market, as well as the restaurant industry. However, as a generalist stock analyst, he showed the ability to learn any and the most complicated of industries in short time - and he gamed every challenge presented to him.
Mr. Kaminis earned his MBA at the Katz Graduate School of Business at the University of Pittsburgh, and his BA at Temple University in Philadelphia. However, Markos has been studying the stock market since age 13, when he determined his career path. He made his first investment at age 16, and funded much of his undergraduate education with the proceeds of his investing success.
Mr. Kaminis continues to keep busy forecasting the economic path and securities market activity. Markos is considering the eventual start-up a long/short capital appreciation hedge fund. Such a fund would limit risk through beta reduction, using a diversification strategy targeting sector & industry and long & short position inclusion. At the same time, Markos' theoretical fund would seek maximum capital appreciation through the exploitation of Mr. Kaminis' inherent economic & market discernment gift and proven stock selection skills. Mr. Kaminis also has a team of a select few analysts, technicians, strategists and economists that he has been impressed by over the years, which he expects to tap for the project when the time is right. Mr. Kaminis welcomes your interest in such a potential forward effort, and looks forward to discussing his plans with those appropriate and within legal constraints.
Markos is involved in very early stage entrepreneurial efforts in the testing of certain business models, all of which he intends to tie to a planned non-profit project. The tie will be that the businesses will give employment opportunity to individuals who would otherwise have difficulty finding gainful employment. It will house and heal the homeless, ex-convicts, those completing rehabilitation efforts for drug and other addictions, and others in need of help.
Markos is currently Directing the widely syndicated blog he founded, "Wall Street Greek," and is writing for other well-known publications besides advancing several businesses. Markos' column is syndicated across sites like the Boston Globe, Kiplinger Magazine, UPI and other reputable newspaper and TV websites, as well as private networks, Amazon Kindle, iPhone and more. In the past, he has written for RealMoney.com, Motley Fool and others. Requests to research specific companies are welcome, as we serve our readers. You may contact us via the blog contact info.
Mr. Kaminis welcomes you to follow him here at Seeking Alpha, where he is proud to be a long-time contributor to this strong team of writers. He considers the Seeking Alpha team and management close friends, and for you, people worth knowing and following.

I tend to focus on good companies that are out of favor for various reasons. I believe that many investments should be looked at in the context of risk, thus offering minimal downside. My coverage experience includes consumer staples/discretionary, biotech, industrials, financials and energy.
I mainly focus on two sectors: technology and auto industry. I am long only and I like to take a conservative approach where I sell covered calls on the shares I hold in order to reduce my risks. Some of the stocks I follow closest are Nokia, Microsoft, Ford and Apple. I believe that being able to see beyond numbers and actually understanding business models of companies we cover is crucial to provide useful insight on companies.

German Shorthair Pups For Sale! - German Shorthaired Pointers in Moran , Michigan - Black Point Gundogs
We're anxiously awaiting the arrival of 2 exceptional litters in February 2014!
Were expecting litter #1 on February 1, 2014. This litter is a cross between Black Point Tilli & Black Point Thor.
Tilli is the best female I have ever owned. She is a cross between Roscoe Puddin Head & Black Point Carrie. She has her father's tremendous nose and her mother's phenomenal hunting desire. She is nothing short of a tremendous gundog! Click here to check out Black Point Tilli's pedigree.
Black Point Thor is a 1 1/2 year old gundog machine. I bought him as a 7 week old pup for a hopefully possible stud dog. He has totally exceeded my expectations up to this point. He has a phenomenal nose, intense point with outstanding style. He is as good looking male shorthair as there is. He is a natural retriever. He progressed so well through last summer's training that I took him to North Dakota last fall. He completely exceeded all of my expectations on his first western hunt! He impressed me so much I bred him to the best female I ever owned.
Black Point Thor was sired by AFC FC High Roll-N's Proposition who was a direct son of National Champion Tonelli's Rising Son. High Roll-N Proposition was the #1 national amateur gundog of the year in 2010. Thor's dam was a line bred national amateur field champion, FC AFC Beier's Evolution bred female. Thor will not be offered a public stud until next year. Pictures will be posted in the coming months.
Were are expecting litter #2 in mid February 2014. This is a cross between Roscoe Puddin Head and Black Point Dakota Belle. Roscoe is the total package! Click here to check out Roscoe Puddin Head's pedigree.
I purchased Black Point Dakota Belle as a 4 month old pup. She has proved to be completely exceptional in every way. She has a tremendous nose, great style, along with outstanding hunt. Her sire is Pine Hill Rexx owned by outstanding professional trainer Justin McGrail. Rexx is one of the best wild bird dogs in the country bar none! Her mother was the Great Montana Belle. Click here to check out Black Point Dakota Belle's pedigree.
We're expecting truly exceptional pups out of both litters and will be keeping pups from both litters for our breeding program.
Pups are priced at $450.00 for males and $500.00 for females.

Tel Aviv University scientists develop highly accurate nano-scale biomonitoring solution
For centuries, animals have been our first line of defense against toxins. A canary in a coalmine served as a living monitor for poisonous gases. Scientists used fish to test for contaminants in our water. Even with modern advances, though, it can take days to detect a fatal chemical or organism.
Until now. Working in the miniaturized world of nanotechnology, Tel Aviv University researchers have made an enormous -- and humane -- leap forward in the detection of pollutants.
A team led by Prof. Yosi Shacham-Diamand, vice-dean of TAU's Faculty of Engineering, has developed a nano-sized laboratory, complete with a microscopic workbench, to measure water quality in real time. Their "lab on a chip" is a breakthrough in the effort to keep water safe from pollution and bioterrorist threats, pairing biology with the cutting-edge capabilities of nanotechnology.
"We've developed a platform -- essentially a micro-sized, quarter-inch square 'lab' -- employing genetically engineered bacteria that light up when presented with a stressor in water," says Prof. Shacham-Diamand. Equipment on the little chip can work to help detect very tiny light levels produced by the bacteria.
Instead of using animals to help detect threats to a water supply, Prof. Shacham-Diamand says "Our system is based on a plastic chip that is more humane, much faster, more sensitive and much cheaper."
Tiny Lab-on-Chip Boosts Accuracy
"Basically, ours is an innovative advance in the 'lab on a chip' system," says Prof. Shacham-Diamand. "It's an ingenious nano-scale platform designed to get information out of biological events. Our solution can monitor water with never-before-achieved levels of accuracy. But as a platform, it can also be used for unlimited purposes, such as investigating stem cell therapies or treating cancer."
According to published literature, Tel Aviv University is one of the top five universities in the world pioneering the "lab on a chip" concept. The nanolabs can be used to evaluate several biological processes with practical applications, such as microbes in water, stem cells, or breast cancer development. Prof. Shacham-Diamand's active lab group publishes a major paper about once a month in this field, most recently in the journal Nano Letters.
Environmental, Medical and Defense Uses for "Mini-Labs"
Partnering with other Israeli scientists, Tel Aviv University is currently building and commercializing its water-testing mini-labs to measure and monitor how genetically engineered bacteria respond to pollution such as E. coli in water. Cities across Israel have expressed interest in the technology, as has the state of Hawaii.
But other uses are being explored as well. Funded by a $3 million grant from the United States Department of Defense Projects Agency (DARPA), the new lab-on-a-chip could become a defensive weapon that protects America from biological warfare. His system, Prof. Shacham-Diamand says, can be also modified to react to chemical threats and pollution. With some tweaking here and there, it can be updated as new threats are detected.
Prof. Shacham-Diamond's research has also attracted the interest of cancer researchers around the world. He recently addressed 400 physicians at a World Cancer Conference who are seeking new devices to measure and monitor cancer and pharmaceuticals. "They need sensors like Tel Aviv University's lab on a chip. It's a hot topic now," says Prof. Shacham-Diamond.
