Cloud Expo® New York Early Bird Savings here!
Fueled by the global economic situation, the government's focus on datacenter consolidation and the "Cloud First" initiative, Cloud Computing continues to be the buzzword of the year. As government agencies start to adopt cloud computing, additional challenges including security in the cloud have become prominent barriers to adoption.
In his session at 14th Cloud Expo, Majed Saadi, Director of the Cloud Computing Practice at SRA International, will focus on providing a quick Cloud Computing technology update with an emphasis on current Cloud Computing security trends and drivers. Examples of these trends include: the utilization and evaluation of Clouds in both active and passive surveillance systems and the use of High Performance Clouds for expanding scientist ability to access data. He will also introduces best practices and lessons learned for securing both public and private cloud environments. It offers insight into how Cloud Computing coupled with other technical advancements in mobility and security are changing government IT organizations and provides general guidance and best practices for developing practical and pragmatic cloud strategies.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

An Examination of the Role of Autocatalytic Cycles in the Chemistry of Proposed Primordial Reactions†
- †
D.G.B. holds a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award.
Let's start at the very beginning: Reaction simulations were used to clarify differences between autoinductive and autocatalytic processes in the context of recent models pertaining to the chemical origin of life (see plot). The ability of a catalytic network to persist in the face of disruptive challenges is essential to its potential to play a role in prebiotic chemistry.

I was not planning to write a series of posts on the subject, but as I got a number of inquiries on my first post, I would like to add a few words to elaborate on the subject.
We, as an industry, have gone through a few generations of computing that were characterized by form factor: mainframes, minicomputers, PC's. The Cloud, IMHO, is the first generation of computing where the form factor became irrelevant.
Share this:
Gartner's view of IT has for the past few years been focused on what Gartner considers essential bimodality. To quote the company: "Bimodal IT is the practice of managing two separate, coherent modes of IT delivery, one focused on stability and the other on agility. Mode 1 is traditional and sequential, emphasizing safety and accuracy. Mode 2 is exploratory and nonlinear, emphasizing agility and speed."
This blog was inspired by the live Q&A session for our first webinar in the Net Objectives Community Webinar Series on The Essence of Agile at Scale (btw, these are a great way to talk to industry thought leaders). I was asked the question: "what should I look for to see if we should scale Agile?"
I often get asked by people if they should scale Agile. I ask them what they mean by this as three different meanings come to my mind:
In a recent HBR article entitled Which Industries Are the Most Digital (and Why)?, the authors measure digital progress and adoption in 22 industry sectors. Specifically, they examine the various industry sectors in light of three categories of digital capabilities: digital assets, digital usage and digital labor, reaching the following conclusion:
As software professionals, our fairly automatic response to complexity is to try to reduce it. Time and again many of us experienced the perils of overly complicated software. For example, in his 2013 Ph.D.

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.3 /5 from 142 reviews
The hotel was clean, modern, and large. I would given it a 4 instead of the 3, except for three things: 1. The bed was terribly hard. I honestly I fealt like someone had plywood under the sheets. 2. Either housekeeping placed queen comforters and blankets on our king bed, or they are to cheap to buy king size beds. No matter what, when 2 people are in a king bed with queen , someone is going to freeze. 3. The light outside the room on the balcony could not turn off. The breakfast was exceptional and the staff was extremely friendly.
Although my trip was for a funeral the hotel was in a excellent location for eating and shopping. The staff was friendly and the service was great.
Good stay. The night manager was very courteous and helpful to help me get on the free wiFi. The room was comfortable and quiet.
Everything was wonderful the hotel accommodations were good The Price is Right there's nothing more to say it was just a wonderful stay
The hotel was okay. The fact that there was no fan in the bathroom was odd. One could choke on the chlorine smell upon entering the pool area. Missed the little extras like infused water and cookies

The California Story presenting Talk-Heavy Moments with Private Lincoln attraction, June 8, 1993, 8:53 p.m.

Now 82, director Jan Troell is arguably the last surviving Old Master of Swedish cinema. His movies (the first to gain international prominence was his 1971 "The Emigrants") are beautifully shot and painstakingly detailed stories, often period ones, chronicling the lives of characters struggling with difficult circumstances and environments. He is not as concerned with interior anxieties as was the man most of us consider Swedish cinema's grandmaster, Ingmar Bergman (although Troell frequently works with actors we tend to associate with Bergman, such as Max von Sydow and Liv Ullmann). On the other hand, Troell is not nearly as dynamic a storyteller as Bergman. While even the most existentially knotty of Bergman's films tries to grab the viewer by the back of the neck and carry him/her on a wave of narrative momentum, Troell's movies are more insinuating. It is likely not an accident that his new movie, "The Last Sentence," opens with images of water moving slowly in a stream, and then the nib of a pen being dipped in ink, and writing out a word, then another, in a calm flow.
The movie's black-and-white images—shot, for the first time in Troell's career, digitally—are gorgeous, by the way. Troell's movies always look magnificent. The words being written in the movie's opening are from the pen of one Torgny Segerstedt, a real-life figure from whose biography Troell and Klaus Rifbjerg adapted the movie's story. Already an older man as the movie opens in 1933, Segerstedt is an academic theologian and newspaper editor appalled by what he sees happening in Germany, and moved to comment on it. The veteran Swedish actor Jesper Christensen has a pronounced resemblance to the distinguished-looking, white-haired real-life Segerstedt, and Christensen invests the character with a gravitas one would expect of such a crusader. At the movie's beginning, Segerstedt's anti-Hitler rhetoric is perceived by his friends as quixotic; "All that's missing is the horse," one crony snarks; "He has the lance," another replies.
But the picture is not just about Segerstedt's lonely attempts to wake up his people. The man has a complicated home life, conflicted about his wife, and not fully satisfied with his mistress, either. A complicating factor is that his mistress is the wife of his best friend. To sort things out, Segerstedt has intense conversations with his late mother (the movie is not without its Bergmanesque touches, as we see). "The lack of love will lead to death" he muses, but the man seems incapable of giving love. Troell makes Segerstedt easy to admire but very hard to like, which is of course part of the movie's point. As events bear out Segerstedt's conviction that Hitler is a monster, the politicians and power brokers of his country grow more skittish, with the country's Prime Minister complaining to Segerstedt, "Let me put it plainly: you endanger national security with your writing."
"Will there be a war?" one character asks Segerstedt as the Nazi threat grows. "There IS war," Segerstedt replies, calmly. One of the refreshing things about this character is how he makes a big noise while never actually raising his voice. While the movie may be too concerned with immediate Swedish concerns to make what American viewers would consider a "universal" statement, "The Last Sentence" nevertheless is a remarkably full-bodied and frank character study that illuminates the old saw about the political being personal in a genuinely unusual way.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

Ai Weiwei to contribute to German show at Biennale
Last Updated: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 - 23:56
Berlin: Chinese dissident Ai Weiwei will contribute to Germany`s pavilion at next year`s Venice Biennale.
Organizers of the German pavilion said today that the acclaimed artist is one of four international contributors commissioned for the 2013 art show.
The others are Indian artist Dayanita Singh, Santu Mofokeng from South Africa and Franco-German artist Romuald Karmakar.
Weiwei has used his art and online profile to draw attention to injustices in Chinese society and the need for greater transparency and rule of law.
He was detained without explanation for three months last year during an overall crackdown on dissent. After his release he was ordered to pay USD 2.4 million in back taxes and fines.

National business
Four months after being struck down by an NZ Bus in Wellington's Willis St, Tim Brown was back on hand to watch the company's results being presented.
In July, Brown, a director of NZ Bus and head of capital markets for Infratil, which owns NZ Bus, was seriously injured when he was hit while crossing the road just metres from where Venessa Green was struck and killed last year.
Yesterday Brown was at the Amora Hotel in Wellington to watch as Infratil posted its interim results, appearing almost unaffected apart from a sandal over a still bandaged left foot.
"Between the orthopaedic surgeon and the physio, a full recovery is anticipated," he said yesterday.
"It seems unlikely that you can be squashed by a bus one minute and then back fully functioning, not quite the next, but that's where I'm heading."
Brown is still working part-time, to allow him to complete a rehabilitation programme and because his energy levels are not yet back to normal.
Staff at Wellington Hospital had carefully crafted a low level of expectation, but were now saying the recovery was "way faster" than expected.
The sandal was still a bugbear, however, for the usually snappy dresser.
"I haven't quite steeled myself to the idea of going down to the shoe shop and buying myself two pairs of shoes and throwing two of them away."

I don't think you really need fancy lights glowing in your keyboard & it seems a (tiny) waste of energy - but I am old, what do I know! Any energy lost does seem to be offset by the energy & happiness that it seem to instill in my son ;)
He got these headphones to complement them (they look fantastic - great price too, £16): http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00XU05KRK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=B00XU05KRK&linkCode=as2&tag=various02-21
He got this 24" monitor, which really does it justice: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005OPLG0O/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=B005OPLG0O&linkCode=as2&tag=various02-21
He now has an amazingly good computer system. And he just asked us to get him a second monitor the same for Christmas (the computer supports up to 4 monitors!)
To start, this is a great product for any gamer who wants to focus on spending the majority of their budget on the rig itself instead of the accessories. It is cheap and the mouse outshines any gaming mouse of the same price and standard. There are a few important points to be made about the mouse initially:
- The left and right mouse buttons have an upward arc that stop your fingers from slipping off when repositioning after using the mouse wheel.
- The gear like shape of the mouse wheel allows for optimised grip and helps determine each motion that is particularly handy when scrolling through weapon wheels and other similar menus.
- The mouse shape offers high comfort levels for prolonged use.
- The position of the additional mouse buttons sit at a pivotal point of the thumb to ensure ease of use.
The keyboard has a few perks over your average keyboard that are as follows:
- The highlighted keys make it easy to find movement keys which becomes increasingly helpful when playing games that require numerous keys for fast paced gaming.
- The function (FN) button allows for sound and video controls so you never have to leave full screen.
- Personally the old fashioned sound presented by hitting the keys has proven helpful when touch typing and also when attempting to conduct various actions in game.
The keyboard does however lack programmable keys and may not be ideal for anyone intending to bind more complex controls to such keys.
The only issue I have found is with the keyboard. The key layout does not resemble the standard U.K. layout and as such it can be quite tricky to find some keys.Read more ›
The mouse, surprisingly is better than my R.A.T.5 mouse in pin point accuracy, even though this mouse was stated to be 2000DPI and my R.A.T was at 5600 DPI, this mouse is surprisingly faster and a heck of a lot more comfortable. I recommend this to gamers in need of a mouse and keyboard, or possibly want to spruce up the way their setup looks, this keyboard is fantastic, and I love the keyboard's red colour scheme as well as the mouse match.
One little thing if you have on and off charge fuction on your motherboard you'll have the red LEDs going fulltime if you don't disable it. And even though build quality is great, not willing to have them on 24/7 due to LEDs lifespan not having the greatest of records.I won't be 4 staring it for that as most keyboard and mouse combos don't really have a disable button of the LEDs.
Mouse is nice and i find it really hard to warm to others, but this one just feels right. And everything really suits my black and red theme i've got going on with my pc. the best thing i like about "CENTROPHORUS" is it doesn't look cheap...
Update: after using for a couple of days i have noticed a squeaking noise coming from the left click if i press it to close the middle scroll. in the day if doesn't really get to me much as i use headphones alot but you might so it's something to keep in mind. thanks
I'm marking it down one star because its a US keyboard being sold on a UK website. Which may not be an issue for you. You can either set your PC to use it as a UK keyboard, in which case you cannot access the PIPE and backslash keys, or you can set it as a US keyboard, in which case you cannot access the UK pound symbol and "@" is shift+2
With a bit of tweaking of various settings in Linux I was able to make it a UK/US hybrid keyboard, so I'm happy!....but it still gets 4 stars ;-)
UK stores should sell UK keyboards, just like Windows should not assume everyone lives in the USA [little rant]

April 14, 2012
El Paso, Texas - In very windy conditions, gusts that reached up to 40 miles per hour, the Rice men's track and field squad performed admirably at the UTEP Invitational Saturday afternoon at Kidd Field.
"The subject of the day was, without question, the weather," commented Owl head coach Jon Warren. There was 35 to 40 mile an hour winds, with gusts even stronger that blew in early in the afternoon. Prior to the winds, Nick Williams set a new school record in the hammer while throwing four throws over what he did last week, which was, up to today, his best.
"As the wind began to pick up and before a massive dust cloud moved in, Alex Zinchenko had a great discus throw improving on his conference best. The mountains even disappeared from view and the pole vault was canceled, but Collin Shurbet and Lee Johnson went 1-2 in the 400 hurdles. Obviously, the times were not very good, as it is hard to run fast in tropical storm winds, but the effort and result was awesome.
Nick Williams indeed did set a school record in the hammer throw with a sixth-place mark of 49.63m/162-10. That distance shatters Clay Baker's 2009 record of 48.54m/159-3.
Collin Shurbet was first (54.61) and Lee Johnson was second (55.25) in the 400m hurdles. Alex Zinchenko was fifth in the discus with a mark of 52.59m/172-6. Kyle Denny was also fifth in the 400m with time of 50.14.
"We brought a very small team out here (no middle distance or distance runners) to what is normally a great meet for sprints and field events," continued Warren. "We just had some bad luck with the weather. Everyone but the vaulters was able to compete and grow a bit. Conditions like this really test an athlete's character."
The Owls return to the track next Saturday, April 21, as its hosts the ninth annual J.Fred Duckett Twilight at Holloway Field/Ley Track.

Big Society Localism De-regulation Responsibility Deal Funding Threats/opportunities
Is Steve Bell right?
Big Society ± big picture
State intervention/regulation meant to promote social cohesion/capital actually corrode it Voluntary/community sector better placed to improve society than the state, and private sector can help ensure done efficiently No rights without responsibility to consider rights of others
Therefore «
Abolish nanny state agencies etc Find solutions to social breakdown involving third sector and social enterprises partnering local public and private sectors Assume private sector will be led by market to being socially minded (and so de-regulate)
Big Society ± underlying thinking
Danny Kruger, former Cameron advisor ³on Fraternity´, Civitas 2007 Need for balance between Liberty [individual], Equality [state] and Fraternity [social relationships] Skewed previously towards focus on liberty, then equality, so now need to bolster fraternity
Big Society ± core 3 proposals
Public sector reform (³what the state can do for you´) Community empowerment (³what we can do for ourselves´) Philanthropic action (³what we can do for others´)
Big Society ± core 3 rights
Right to buy (save) ± communities saving local facilities and services threatened with closure Right to bid ± communities¶ right to bid to take over local state-run services Right to build ± communities¶ right to decide on planning issues
Local people should have more/most influence over where they live. Therefore local authority priorities (planning, funding, service provision) should be set by local people rather than regional or national bodies, and policed by local people through elections, referenda etc And consultation, engagement, transparency become crucial
Competitive markets and private companies in them know best that consumers want and how to deliver it efficiently Therefore remove regulation and state funding which impedes competitive forces or constrains private sector innovation
Responsibility Deal
Concept developed in Tory pre-manifesto planning ³partnership between Government and business that balances proportionate regulation with corporate responsibility´ first Responsibility Deal addressed producer waste second addresses public health problems associated with poor diet, alcohol abuse and lack of exercise
³The conclusions reached by the Responsibility Deal working group - chaired by Dave Lewis, Chairman of Unilever UK - will be a key contribution, both to the current debate on improving public health, and for us, as the basis for our future strategy to improve the health of the nation´.
We can¶t spend money even if we¶d like to, because of the mess we inherited Therefore no choice but to cut state back, which is a good thing because it gives the big society a chance to fill the gap and flourish
Locally driven agendas ignore wider societal goals (eg low carbon, energy security) Poor engagement/consultation so agendas set by vocal minorities Removal of state intervention and funding without real provision for needed projects Suffolk county council approach ± outsource the universe
Potential for motivated, engaged communities to radically re-shape their local infrastructure and services ?

Gov. Mark Dayton met with his number two Monday afternoon to learn whether she will stick around for a second term.
Before the meeting both Dayton and Lt. Gov. Yvonne Prettner Solon were quiet about their plans.
Forty minutes after their meeting was to begin, a gubernatorial spokesman released an advisory saying she planned to talk to the press at 9 a.m. Tuesday. The release said she would "announce her plans for the future" and little else.
She said last week that she had decided whether or not to run but would not share her decision until she met with Dayton. Dayton, too, kept his thoughts to himself. On Friday, he repeatedly refused to answer any questions about the issue.
The relationship between Minnesota's top constitutional officers has been a distant one. Prettner Solon, a former state senator from Duluth, said they do not talk often.
The governor has said he left it largely up to Prettner Solon to decide whether to run with him in a re-election fight.
Correction: An earlier version of this post wrongly described who will be at Tuesday's 9 am press conference. It will be just Lt. Gov. Yvonne Prettner Solon.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — John Lackey worked his way out of a bases-loaded jam in the first inning, allowing one run in 20 pitches, while Jose Iglesias hit a two-run homer over the Monster as the Red Sox fell to the Rays, 4-3, Saturday afternoon at JetBlue Park in the Grapefruit League opener for both clubs. Xander Bogaerts, in his final at-bat before leaving for the WBC, singled home a run in the ninth to make it close. Daniel Nava struck out looking with the tying run on base to end the game before a sellout crowd of 9,680 at JetBlue Park.
Lackey was making his first outing since Sept. 25, 2011 and his first since Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.
He allowed one run, one hit, walked one, struck out one and a hit a batter as the Rays managed just one run after loading the bases with none out in the first.
Ryan Roberts drove in the game's first run with a sacrifice fly to right off Lackey, scoring Ben Zobrist. The Rays added another in the third as Jarrod Saltalamacchia had an inning to forget. He dropped a foul pop that extended the at-bat of Jack Cust. On the next pitch, Desmond Jennings stole third and Saltalamacchia's throw sailed into left field, allowing Jennings to score, making it 2-0.
The Red Sox went quietly in the first six innings before Jeremy Hazelbaker walked with one out. Iglesias followed by driving a first-pitch fastball over the Monster in left for Boston's first homer of the spring, tying the game, 2-2.
The Rays got those two runs back in the eighth when Leslie Anderson drilled a two-run homer to right off Red Sox righty Oscar Villarreal (0-1) with two outs.
Saltalamacchia, Jacoby Ellsbury and Hazelbaker had doubles as extra-base hits accounted for four of Boston's seven hits on the day.
The Red Sox return to action across the state on Sunday as they take on the St. Louis Cardinals in Jupiter at 1:05 p.m. as lefty Jon Lester makes his spring debut. Boston plays split-squad games on Monday with Steven Wright starting against Toronto in Dunedin at 1:05 p.m. and Alfredo Aceves starting against Tampa Bay in Port Charlotte at 1:05 p.m.
POST-GAME NOTES from John Farrell:
On the homer from Iglesias: "Wish there were a couple more like it. As we have commented on him as camp has unfolded, he's a little bit more upright, a little more free in his overall swing. He got a fastball up in the zone and did what he's capable of doing. I think more than anything, it's just the freeness and aggressiveness of the swing."
On Xander Bogaerts, RBI single, nice defensive play in rundown: "A good heads up play on the rundown we executed. He's got a good swing through the zone and like I said the other day, he's a bright-looking young player. He's heady. He's got field awareness. Good things are ahead for him."
On Daniel Nava first base defense: "As we've seen in the work, that wasn't an easy play on that ground ball by [Ben] Zobrist. He looks fine over there for right now. The little things, even on the errant throw [by Iglesias] that you see the footwork where he adjusted on the bag, some things that are more instinctual. To have him step in and the last time he played first base was in junior college, and he's handled it well."
On Clay Buchholz 37-pitch simulated game: "He'll have a side on Monday and then he's set to go Tuesday or Wednesday. It's yet to be determined. We'll fit that into how it starts to plan out for the start of the regular season. He's gradually ramping up the intensity [on fielding], not only just with field tests as far as straight-ahead running or any kind of cuts, but in time, that'll take its place. We want to prioritize the work he does on the mound right now."

Poppy Delevingne frolics in a wet tank top on the shores of Mustique as she turns the camera on herself for Rag & Bone
Model and society girl Poppy Delevingne is the newest face of Rag and Bone's DIY Project.
The ad series, which has previously starred Miranda Kerr, Candice Swanepoel and Jourdan Dunn, sees the label give each girl a camera and a bag of clothes, and free rein to do what they like with them.
Ever the globetrotter Miss Delevingne, 26, takes her campaign to three locations - the sunny shores of Mustique, a rooftop in her hometown of London and a grassy field in the West Sussex countryside.
Sunkissed glow: Model and society girl Poppy Delevingne took her camera to the sunny shores of Mustique for Rag & Bone's DIY ad series, which has been running since 2011
The slender blonde said that she shot her campaign in Mustique at New Year while she was on holiday with her long-term boyfriend James Cook and a group of friends.
The blue sky images show her looking happy and relaxed as she frolics in the crystal clear Caribbean Sea before drying off on land.
In the frame: Miss Delevingne didn't say who took the sunny pictures of her, but at the time she was on holiday with her long-term boyfriend James Cook and a group of friends
Endless blue: Taking full advantage of the weather Miss Delevingne slipped into some flesh-baring ensembles
Taking full advantage of the warm weather she slipped into a number of flesh-baring ensembles for the shoot including a white tank top, sheer jersey and tiny cut-off denim shorts.
Back in the UK Miss Delevingne opted for slightly warmer pieces from the Rag & Bone collection, pairing tees with skinny jeans.
The Brit explained that she selected London as a backdrop for the ad series as it is 'where my home and heart lies.'
Globetrotter: Miss Delevingne frequently travels - she was recently in New York with her sister Cara for Fashion Week, but has now returned to Los Angeles
Getting creative: The Rag & Bone ad series sees the label give each girl with a camera and a bag of clothes, and free rein to do what they like with them
New ventures: While Miss Delevingne she has forged a successful career as a model she is now concentrating her efforts on acting
In the cityscape shots she appears against a backdrop of red brick and chimney stacks wearing minimal make-up with her hair styled straight.
For the final part of the campaign she headed to the West Sussex countryside where her boyfriend snapped her strolling through some muddy fields in a pair of wellington boots, carrying a brightly-coloured parasol.
It marks the first time Miss Delevingne has modeled for the U.S. brand Rag & Bone.
Striking looks: Miss Delevingne was spotted by Storm Model Management founder Sarah Doukas when she was a teenager
Rural fun: Miss Delevingne was snapped on a country jaunt by her long-term boyfriend James Cook
Following her work with the label she
sat front row at its New York Fashion Week Fall 2013 show, which was
attended by the likes of Alexa Chung and Drew Barrymore.
After a short stint in Manhattan she returned to Los Angeles, where she spent Valentine's Day with fellow model Laura Bailey.
'Truffled out, giggly & sleepy; My sweetest Valentines dinner yet with @laurabailey_uk can we make it a yearly occurrence?,' she tweeted.
Colder climates: Back in the UK Miss Delevingne opted for slightly warmer pieces from the Rag & Bone collection, pairing tees with skinny jeans
Home at last: Miss Delvingne grew up in London with her two sisters Chloe and Cara
Close bond: Poppy Delevingne was recently in New York with her sister Cara for Fashion Week
While Miss Delevingne has forged a successful career as a model she now has her sights set on acting.
'I've always wanted to be in films and I'm not sure I can stay a model for ever,' she revealed last year.
The Delevingne sisters, Chloe, Poppy and Cara, were born in Belgravia, London.
At 5ft11in, Poppy is the tallest of the set. She was spotted by Sarah Doukas, founder of model agency Storm as a teenager.

John Denver is good for the heart
Don't forget to take your medicine.
When the eleventh anniversary of John Denver's death passed by on October 12, I noted it privately, but let it be at that. After all, how many times can you dredge up cheesy feelings for an artist whose songs alternately inspired and gagged so many people?
Well, it turns out you can do it lots of times!
According to researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, Stressful, disturbing music, like heavy metal, can be bad for the heart while joyful, uplifting music, like Denver's, arouses emotions that have "a healthy effect on blood vessel function." In fact, listening to your favorite music can be as good for your heart as laughing or taking blood medications, the study said.

Kanye West & Ludacris Win Copyright Trial
A New York jury ruled Thursday June 1st, 2006 that Kanye West and Ludacris did not violate another group's copyright when they recorded their 2003 hit single "Stand Up," which was later featured on Ludacris' "Chicken & Beer" album.
Thus, the two top-selling rappers are both cleared from a copyright infringement accusation brought by New Jersey foursome I.O.F., stands for It's Only Family, and production company BMS Entertainment/Heat Music LLC. "I hope the plaintiffs enjoyed their 15 minutes of fame," Ludacris said after the verdict was announced. "This whole experience is proof to me of why I will always fight for what I believe in."
Ludacris and Kanye's "Stand Up" victory was taken by the ten jurors after less than a day of deliberations in the two-week trial in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. While West was not in court, outside the courthouse Ludacris signed autographs and posed for pictures before leaving for Los Angeles to promote a documentary he narrated about a female basketball team in Seattle.
