Control of bleeding is an essential requirement of surgery, and the risks of excessive bleeding are of major concern to surgeons. This is especially true for liver surgeons in view of the coagulopathy associated with the lack of essential clotting factors in patients with decompensated liver disease. However, it would now appear that the lack of certain factors produced by the liver may, in fact, also render the patient hypercoagulable.
The role of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) in hemostasis has been extensively documented in the hematology literature. In contrast, ADAMTS13 has hardly been noticed on the surgical radar. ADAMTS13 is a specific metalloproteinase that is responsible for cleaving the multimeric form of von Willebrand factor, thus preventing platelet aggregation and thrombus formation.1 Conversely, in the absence of ADAMTS13 activity, or with a profound deficiency of ADAMTS13, due to either genetic mutations or autoimmune inhibitors, ultralarge von Willebrand factor produced by vascular endothelial cells accumulate and induce widespread microvascular thrombosis characteristic of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

Scientists at the Wistar Institute say they have discovered that mice lacking a specific protein live longer lives with fewer age-related illnesses. The mice, which lack the TRAP-1 protein, demonstrated less age-related tissue degeneration, obesity, and spontaneous tumor formation when compared to normal mice, according to the researchers, who believe their findings could change how scientists view the metabolic networks within cells.
In healthy cells, TRAP-1 is an important regulator of metabolism and has been shown to regulate energy production in mitochondria, organelles that generate chemically useful energy for the cell. In the mitochondria of cancer cells, TRAP-1 is universally overproduced.
The Wistar team's report ("Deletion of the Mitochondrial Chaperone TRAP-1 Uncovers Global Reprogramming of Metabolic Networks"), which appears in Cell Reports, shows how "knockout" mice bred to lack the TRAP-1 protein compensate for this loss by switching to alternative cellular mechanisms for making energy.
"We see this astounding change in TRAP-1 knockout mice, where they show fewer signs of aging and are less likely to develop cancers," said Dario C. Altieri. M.D., Robert and Penny Fox Distinguished Professor and director of the Wistar Institute's National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center. "Our findings provide an unexpected explanation for how TRAP-1 and related proteins regulate metabolism within our cells. We usually link the reprogramming of metabolic pathways with human diseases, such as cancer. "What we didn't expect to see were healthier mice with fewer tumors."
Dr. Altieri and his colleagues created the TRAP-1 knockout mice as part of their ongoing investigation into the drug Gamitrinib, which targets the protein in the mitochondria of tumor cells. TRAP-1 is a member of the heat shock 90 (HSP90) protein family, which are chaperone proteins that guide the physical formation of other proteins and serve a regulatory function within mitochondria. Tumors use HSP90 proteins like TRAP-1 to help survive therapeutic attack.
"In tumors, the loss of TRAP-1 is devastating, triggering a host of catastrophic defects, including metabolic problems that ultimately result in in death of the tumor cells," continued Dr. Altieri. "Mice that lack TRAP-1 from the start, however, have three weeks in the womb to compensate for the loss of the protein."
The researchers found that in their knockout mice, the loss of TRAP-1 causes mitochondrial proteins to misfold, which then triggers a compensatory response that causes cells to consume more oxygen and metabolize more sugar. This causes mitochondria in knockout mice to produce deregulated levels of ATP, the chemical used as an energy source to power all the everyday molecular reactions that allow a cell to function.
This increased mitochondrial activity actually creates a moderate boost in oxidative stress (free radical damage) and the associated DNA damage. While DNA damage may seem counterproductive to longevity and good health, the low level of DNA damage actually reduces cell proliferation—slowing growth down to allow the cell's natural repair mechanisms to take effect.
"TRAP-1−/− mice are viable and showed reduced incidence of age-associated pathologies including obesity, inflammatory tissue degeneration, dysplasia, and spontaneous tumor formation," wrote the investigators. "This was accompanied by global upregulation of oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis transcriptomes, causing deregulated mitochondrial respiration, oxidative stress, impaired cell proliferation, and a switch to glycolytic metabolism in vivo. These data identify TRAP-1 as a central regulator of mitochondrial bioenergetics, and this pathway could contribute to metabolic rewiring in tumors."
"Our findings strengthen the case for targeting HSP90 in tumor cells, but it also opens up a fascinating array of questions that may have implications for metabolism and longevity," explained Dr. Altieri. "I predict that the TRAP-1 knockout mice will be a valuable tool for answering these questions."

WGA has not set a date for resumption of talks
The clock is ticking and they're still pussy-footing.
The Writers Guild of America, which faces a May 2 contract expiration, has not yet set a date for the resumption of talks with the producers org AMPTP.
The dysfunctional Screen Actors Guild is even less forthcoming as to when it will start its talks, other than saying it won't be until after the WGA negotiations.
There's also a growing fear that the WGA wants to extend its expiration to match SAG's on June 30, though both Guilds deny that such a strategy exists.
Meanwhile, the phones have stopped ringing for many casting directors, location scouts and even talent agents.
Film production will hit a wall in a few weeks and many producers and directors are fretting about so-called force majeure clauses that studios could invoke to get rid of them if a strike or bargaining impasse ensues.
If there's no progress in the WGA talks by mid-May, the TV networks will have no choice but to go ahead with their threat of a "Plan B" fall sked of newsmags, movies and reality shows.
Things have gotten so volatile that word of a settlement swept town last week, catching even negotiators off-guard. The rumor turned out to be completely bogus.
Making matters even worse, the experienced Brian Walton — the lead negotiator for SAG — has apparently been so whipsawed by the factionalism within the guild that his effectiveness is being called into question.
All of this against the backdrop of a worsening economy.
As for the negotiations themselves, they will resume amid a less-than-hopeful outlook with both sides proclaiming they won't "meet in the middle" of the $100 million gap that divides them. Even that figure is in dispute.
And even if a deal, or progress toward a deal, is made with the WGA, talks with SAG could fall apart.
The 100,000-member strong actors union is increasingly beset by bitter infighting between rival factions within the guild.
SAG has not even been able to decide whether it will offer strike waivers to indie producers: Moderates back the idea while hard-liners oppose it, contending that waivers to shoot will undercut the guild's ability to use the threat of a strike as a negotiating tool.
The only recent positive note came from several quarters suggesting a deal between writers and producers can be reached by using the recession as an exit strategy.
Said one insider: "Now that both sides have painted themselves into corners with their stridency, it stands to reason they can cut a deal and then blame the economy to sell that deal to their constituents."
That tactic won't be a slam dunk, since both sides face the PR nightmare of being accused of capitulation.
But UCLA economist Tom Lieser, noting that the probability of a recession has been upped to 90%, pointed out that the avalanche of job cuts and stock market meltdowns is genuinely depressing for writers and actors.
"Rank-and-file union members have been recognizing the general deterioration in the business climate," he added. "There really has been a tremendous amount of negative information lately. People are bombarded with it."
As for the companies, a strike carries the risk of further knocking down their stock prices.
Analyst Jill Krutick of Salomon Smith Barney said last week the potential strikes and soft ad market had clouded the sector's near-term outlook, particularly on sales at next month's upfront advertising market, and could lead to downgrades on earnings estimates for all entertainment companies.
"Buyers may negotiate ad rates with options built in depending on the strike outcome," she said. "Furthermore, we think the major networks may be more inclined to sell much less ad inventory in an effort to hold the line on pricing."
So is there a chance of a deal? The answer is a qualified yes. At this point, negotiators are focused on two particularly difficult areas:
- Video/DVD, where the WGA is seeking a $19.6 million gain and the companies are offering no hike at all.
The WGA asked for a 100% increase and have backed down to 25%. Observers expect the companies to hold the line in the lucrative sector but the WGA leadership believes the formula — which excludes 80% of revenues — is unfair and outmoded.
- A "double burst" proposal from the producers for a discount on reruns of shows within 14 days as an experimental way of building audience for newer series. Disney has admitted it is particularly enthusiastic about the idea. The WGA believes the proposal represents a massive rollback of $31.1 million.
There are half a dozen other complex issues to be sorted out for a deal to be reached:
- The deal will have to be acceptable to the mega-congloms. Five key players — Warner, Fox, Viacom, Disney and Sony — would pay 64% of the WGA's proposed $99.7 million in cost increases over three years. Since Sony does not own a network, its exposure will be somewhat less than the other four.
- Foreign TV residuals, where the WGA is seeking a $21.4 million hike and the companies are offering $891,000. Still, the companies have offered to budge from their longtime formula of 35% of applicable minimum gap, which generated a total of $13.8 million in residuals last year.
- Fox TV residuals, where the WGA wants parity with ABC, NBC and CBS at a cost of $5.2 million. The companies have offered a $754,000 hike, representing an increase from the current 67% of the Big Three to 78%.
- Basic cable residuals, where the WGA seeks a $4.1 million hike and the companies have offered no increase.
- Base pay hikes. The WGA is seeking $36.8 million while the companies are offering $26 million at 3% per year.
Though speculation has arisen that Disney is the main hard-liner, that perception is based mostly on its general reputation in negotiations.
Some experts point out that it's still too early to make such a call. They note that all companies must agree on the entire package due to the "veto" rule used by the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers.
Those looking for hopeful signs can point to the clear progress on made-for-pay-TV, which has seen explosive growth thanks to such success stories as HBO's "The Sopranos."
Companies have agreed to sweeten the current formula, which delivered a paltry $274,000 last year, to one that will provide a $5.1 million hike; the WGA is seeking an $8 million hike.
Additionally, both sides have been careful to lay off the invective so far. Instead, they have gone out of their way to praise each other publicly for their hard work and professional conduct.
Perhaps as long as no one calls anyone "greedy" or "piggish," there's still hope.

Hello, I had GPC in one of my eyes and the lid has been droopy for about 3 weeks. From what I can tell, it looks like the GPC is cleared up, I've been treating it with Pred Forte. I'm afraid my eyelid might stay like this permanently. Is this a legitimate fear? I just had upper blepharoplasty done on my eyelids less than that a year ago.
Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis and Droopy Eyelids?
Doctor Answers 1
Droopy eyelid after conjunctivitis?
The droopy eyelid (ptosis) may or may not be related to the GPC. If the GPC has resolved and the ptosis has persisted, then it is unlikely to go away. This may require ptosis surgery which involves tightening the muscle responsible for lifting the eyelid. This is different than upper blepharoplasty, which simply removes skin from the upper eyelid and doesn't actually raise the eyelid. See an oculoplastic surgeon for evaluation.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Silicon Graphics (NASDAQ: SGI ) have skyrocketed today by as much as 11% after receiving an analyst upgrade.
So what: Sterne Agee boosted its rating on the stock from hold to buy while assigning a price target of $19. That's over 50% upside from even today's high. Analyst Alex Kurtz said the next 12 months should see upside from efficiency gains in operations and gross margin.
Now what: Kurtz expects the company to beat consensus estimates for the foreseeable future thanks to growth in big-data trends and near-term catalysts. Silicon Graphics may also be able to exercise leverage during the next year for additional gains. Earlier this week, the company said it would release second-quarter results on Jan. 30, so shareholders won't have to wait long to hear how the business is performing.

Integration of Technology Assists Franklin & Marshall Campus Police
By Captain Paul Morin, Associate Director of Public Safety, Franklin Marshall College, Lancaster, Pennsylvania
Franklin & Marshall Quick Facts
Student Enrollment: The college is a four-year, full-time, residential institution with only a handful of commuters. About 2,100 students are enrolled.
Institutional Setting: A small liberal-arts school, Franklin & Marshall is located in Lancaster, a small city in southeastern Pennsylvania. The campus is primarily residential.
Police Department: The campus police department employs 21 unarmed police officers and 5 contract security guard positions on campus, as well as 3 full-time dispatchers and 1 additional civilian employee.
ver the past two years, Franklin & Marshall College has enhanced its physical security posture by initiating specifically targeted technology projects designed to assist its Department of Public Safety (DPS) and Campus Police.
The first enhancement project was the design, implementation, and installation of 21 closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras outlining the campus perimeter, on campus parking lots and specific locations in the local neighborhood, where a large number of students reside. The video is fed live to the DPS dispatch center and is monitored during specific hours by either the dispatcher or a contract security guard. All video footage is recorded on a digital video recording system for archiving and playback of video footage for up to 30 days. This enhancement was a three-phase project; more cameras are proposed for installation in the near future.
Since the DPS implemented the CCTV system, it has proven itself a sound deterrent to criminal activity in the campus area and has paid for itself by assisting in numerous incidents that were deterred by their presence. The system was used in several high-profile cases and assisted officers in tracking and apprehending offenders involved on and off the main campus. The city police department relies on it when working cases in the area of the college and is provided with assistance and video footage by the DPS.
A second major technological enhancement was the installation of a campuswide emergency siren and notification system. The system is operated from the DPS dispatch center and is equipped with prerecorded verbal messages and a public address system, which can be used to pass on incident information and instructions. In conjunction with the siren system, the college also adopted the use of the E2campus text messaging system, which notifies all registered community participants of emergency situations taking place on the campus and details specific instructions.
The decision to install a campuswide emergency siren and notification system stems from the tragic events at Virginia Tech. It is the college's hope and desire that the system be used only when conducting its quarterly tests.

Sabine, nice summary. I have decided to give it a 2 week try. If nothing else, I hope it breaks my body of its "schedule" a little bit and shakes things up. We shall see how it goes..........
re: article above. I both agree and disagree with it. I think it's right on in terms of why we often see a "stall" right after the first 2 weeks or so. And, at that point, I usually start trying to tweak. I suspect if I would stay the course -- and not jump into cashews -- it would turn itself around. When I lost my first 20 pounds on primal, I would say that the article was spot on. I didn't ever really have a fast or crazy weight loss, but I "knew" it was working. Of course, after the 20 pounds, I was "stuck" and then I tried every different thing under the sun and moon and stars. I wonder what would have happened if I had just been patient and stayed with what I was doing if I eventually (after my body rested) would have started losing again. I feel like I've gotten so lost along the way.
Anyway, yesterday was actually a good day. For all that I "fell" into the cashews, I didn't feel like it was a binge. I enjoyed the day and enjoyed what I ate. It was a refreshing change. I enjoyed having an "up" day. Today is a low day. I think it will be a mental challenge more than anything. My body is very used to eating at the same time. Sometimes I think my desire for a schedule and consistency has hurt my ability to determine "true" hunger. We shall see. I'm giving this calorie cycling thing 2 weeks.
Today's weight: 161.4. Not bad after a big "up" day. [My most recent hold was 158.6, but my "new" hold has been around the 161 mark.]
Sabine, nice summary. I have decided to give it a 2 week try. If nothing else, I hope it breaks my body of its "schedule" a little bit and shakes things up. We shall see how it goes..........
on your down days are you keeping the same macro percentages as the up days.
I will ask you what we have been asking Karin and Paula, did you track during your successful 20 pound loss? If so what did the food/calories/macros look like then? Lets get back to the basics and repeat the successful things and use the unsuccessful as learning experiences.
Yes, that is my goal, to keep my percentages the same.
When I lost those 20 pounds, I was not tracking. I was - surprisingly for a girl overweight her entire life - just able to listen to my body. I do, wonder, however, how much of the loss was due to healing my body. I had been gluten intolerant (and feeling the symptoms for at least a year) before I switched to primal. But I can tell you what I ate pretty regularly:
B: leftover steak and maybe veggies
L: eggs and spinach (cooked in olive oil)
D: steak and one veggie (usually something green - nothing starchy)
I had denied myself steak (and red meat in general) for so long, that I kid you not we ate steak 3 or 4 times a week. The rest of the meals were some variation of red meat - I bought of 1/4 grass-fed cow and just pulled a hunk out every day. I basically lived the Whole30, without calling it such. My "treat" was shredded cabbage, 1/2 apple, and unsweetened almond butter, mixed together. I ate around 1,400 calories (I did track for my Whole30).
I actually think it was pretty low carb, mostly animal products, and decently high in fat (but protein was a little higher than now). Interesting, huh?
yes, very interesting. I would think about repeating it for a few weeks to see what happens. I feel like because of your dietary restrictions it may be that you need to do more protein to make your nutrition needs? Instead of trying to increase fat so much, just concentrate on the fatty cuts or using some herbs in your ghee as a "sauce" for the leaner cuts. I am a quantity girl though, so I would have to do a green salad at dinner (3oz of mixed greens is a big pile of food). Maybe use coconut oil to cook at lunch and olive oil for dinner (just to mix up the sources a bit).
I dunno, just thinking out loud.

What am I doing? Depends on the day.
not weighing daily made it easier for me to not tweak the program on a near daily basis, but I also lost a piece of information I cannot get back. Wondering if I lost weight in the beginning and then gained at the end or if I was gaining all along. Data lost.
^^^ this is what I am thinking

What am I doing? Depends on the day.
My problem - I can't always look at the results as data. I think I did something either "good" or "bad". And, truth of the matter, the scale fluctuations could be from 2 or 3 or 4 days ago...but I don't know that and always think it relates to what I did yesterday. But, I didn't have a scale for years. I ended up at 240 pounds. Should I have known by the way my clothing fit? Yeah. But I was in denial.

According to media news, an Iraqi court has issued a death sentence to Sunni Iraqi Vice President Tariq Hashemi and his aides. Tariq Hashemi is in Turkey these days and has said the court's decision was politically motivated.
Now, the gulf is widening between the Malaki ruling party and the Sunni national alliance, which is harming the country's interests. The recent decision by the Iraqi court will further fuel sectarian and ethnic violence in Iraq. After the departure of international forces, Iraq is facing worse sectarian and ethnic violence.
Just two days ago, 70 people lost their lives in the oil-rich city of Kirkuk after massive car-bomb attacks. Poorly equipped and untrained Iraqi forces are not able to control increasing sectarian violence. Due to the Malaki government's failure, car bombings and the killing of innocent people have become a daily routine in the country. Populous areas have become divided along ethnic and sectarian lines.
Even the high-security Green Zone, government offices and police recruiting centers are not safe from terrorist attacks. After the US invasion and the subsequent destruction of infrastructure in the big cities, the world powers have failed to fulfill their promises regarding the reconstruction of Iraq.
Despite being so rich in oil, due to lack of interest and bad economic policies, half the country's population is still living below the poverty line, while the rate of unemployment is still high and ordinary people find it hard to provide daily necessities for their families.

RUSH: We're gonna start last night on ABC's "World! News! Tonight!" We have a portion of correspondent David Muir's report about Romney's remark that he's "not concerned about the very poor," and this is the beginning of the saturation of comments by me, your host, throughout the Drive-By Media yesterday.
MUIR: That comment today, his opponents say, again cast Romney as a wealthy businessman. Out-of-touch. Even conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh.
RUSH ARCHIVE: He makes himself a target with this stuff. He comes across as the prototypical rich Republican. It's gonna make it harder and harder and harder to go after Obama.
MUIR: And Newt Gingrich, who vows to keep going, saw an opening.
GINGRICH: I am running to be the president of all the American people.
MUIR: While flying across the country today, the Governor shot back at any notion he dismissed the poor. He again said if the safety net has holes in it, he would work to repair them.
RUSH: That... (sigh) Well, I'm being repetitive. That misses the whole point on the safety net as well. But from the conservative standpoint, which is the American standpoint, which is the compassionate standpoint, which is the loving-opportunity standpoint. On CBS This Morning today, I have a portion here of the political correspondent Jan Crawford and her report about Romney's remark that he's not concerned about the poor.
CRAWFORD: Opponents on the left jumped on it saying it shows Romney is out of touch, just as radio host Rush Limbaugh predicted.
RUSH ARCHIVE: Now, everybody knows what he's trying to say, but he didn't say it. He makes himself a target with this stuff. He comes across as the prototypical rich Republican. It's gonna make it harder and harder and harder to go after Obama.
RUSH: They love that "prototypical rich Republican" assessment. They all used it out there in the Drive-By Media. Last night on CNN's The Situation Room, here is the giddy Dana Bash -- who, by the way, is married to the reporter John King. Just a little gossip for you. Well, it's not gossip. It's true. Dana Bash and John King are husband and wife, joined in matrimony. I think on Martha's Vineyard. I'm not sure. Not that it matters, but here is her report -- and you can hear she's giddy.
BASH: (giddily) The National Review asked, "What's wrong with this guy?" And on conservative radio, Rush Limbaugh said, "He comes across as the prototypical rich Republican."
RUSH: National Review, they've been all-in for Romney for a while. So they probably were a little disjointed about this. Maybe scratching their heads, going, "Oh, gee." But not just them. Not just National Review. Last night on The Last Word on PMSNBC, Lawrence O'Donnell and the Huffing and Puffington Post editorial director Howard Fineman (fresh from the cockfights he said he watched in South Carolina) had a discussion about Romney and his remark about the poor. Lawrence O'Donnell said, "Howard, I don't believe we've had a Republican president in our past who would be flat-footed enough to be caught saying, 'I don't care about poor people.' Romney doesn't seem to understand what the Republican talking points are when faced with questions like this."
FINEMAN: What the Republicans have tried to do over the last generation with people like the late Jack Kemp and others is to argue that they -- meaning the Republicans and the conservatives and the free market -- have a better answer for the problems of the poor than the Democrats do. This is what Rush Limbaugh was partly upset about. He was defending Newt, but he was also upset about the idea that Mitt Romney's actually accepting the safety net. He's sort of saying, "Well, yeah, for the poor people we have the Democratic policies and let them have their thing." So it couldn't have been worse in any conceivable direction for Romney, and the -- the Romney people are quite defensive about it, justifiably, tonight.
RUSH: Same show, MSNBC last night, Howard Dean... (interruption) What are you are frowning at? (interruption) That's a good point. I wasn't "defending Newt." Not in this. I don't think... Look, I said a lot of words yesterday. I don't remember everything I said, but I don't think I even associated any of this with the Newtster. At any rate, a minor point. Howard Dean, Last Word, Lawrence O'Donnell. After he plays the clip of me saying our team is not all that good; you know it and I know it, they're just not -- which I did say yesterday. I did say talking about the remaining field. O'Donnell said, "Honesty breaking out on the Rush Limbaugh Show today, Howard. That's how bad it's gotten for the Republicans."
DEAN: That's not somethin' y'hear!
O'DONNELL: (snickering)
DEAN: Look, these guys have a problem because the idea was to run against Obama and make Obama the issue. The Obama campaign is incredible. Uhhh, they've been on a roll since the jobs speech before Labor Day and you're just not gonna grind them down. And the issue of this campaign is, "Can you trust the Republicans?" That is a terrible issue for the Republican Party. But that's the issue. The issue is: Can you trust to (sic) the Republican --
O'DONNELL: No.
DEAN: -- who got us into this in the first place, to get us out?
RUSH: That's irrelevant. That has nothing to do with what this is about. But this is what happens when you give them this opportunity. Here's Howard Dean rolling on and on, "Can you trust the Republicans. That's a terrible issue. The issue is can you trust the Republicans who got us into this in the first place." It's not at all what this is about, but there they go running with it. And we go to the Morning Joe show, Scarborough on MSNBC this morning. Here is Mika Brzezinski.
BRZEZINSKI: Rush Limbaugh offered his take as well.
RUSH ARCHIVE: "I'm not worried about the poor. We got a safety net." The safety net is one of the biggest cultural problems we've got. The safety net is contributing to the destruction of their humanity and their futures. Everybody knows what he's trying to say, but he didn't say it, and he makes himself a target with this stuff. He comes across as the prototypical rich Republican. All these wizards of smart in the Republican establishment, "We can't have Newt out there, why, Newt's gonna be the topic. We need Obama be the topic." What evidence is there that it's not gonna be about Romney with these kinds of statements?
RUSH: Okay, that's what Howard Fineman heard. What I was saying was, that the Republican establishment was saying we can't have Newt or anybody but Romney, because Newt, Newt's so bad, he's so bellicose, he's so bombastic. He says so many crazy things, that Newt's gonna end up being the issue. We don't want Newt. We want Obama to be the issue. And now look what's happened. Romney, for two straight days now, is the issue. And I was just making the point that the establishment doesn't know what it's talking about when they talk about only Romney's electable and the campaign will only be about Obama if Romney is the nominee. Our nominee could be Mother Teresa and by the time they got through with her she'd be a prostitute with 15 illegitimate kids. It doesn't matter who our nominee is; they're gonna be all over it.
They're gonna make our nominee the issue because they can't defend theirs. Their nominee's record is something they've got to hide. They can't run on it. Everybody knows all the Democrats can do is to rip our nominee apart, tear our nominee to shreds. Opposition research. And they've said that that's what they're gonna do. They're gonna go after character. They're gonna go after policy. They're gonna go after everything, and yet our wizards of smart are sitting up there saying, "Well, if we nominate Romney, they can't go after Romney, that way we'll be able to make Obama the issue." Yeah, right. Not going to work out that way. Joe Scarborough, on his own eponymous show, then decided to reply to Mika Brzezinski.
SCARBOROUGH: That's actually the point of the day. We've been hearing all along that, oh, if you nominate Newt it's gonna be about Newt. And yes, if you nominate Newt, it is gonna be all about Newt. But the idea was that you could turn the focus on Obama if you put Romney in there. But I'm telling you with every one of these gaffes -- I'm not kicking Mitt Romney when he's down. I'm just saying for me, as a conservative, even, I'm concerned when I hear somebody say, "I'm not focused or concerned about the very poor." There's a disconnect there.
RUSH: Now, it's not a disconnect. See, everybody knows what Romney was trying to do. These guys all know. Every one of these critics out there knows that Romney was trying -- let me tell you what he was trying to say. I'll give you the words. I'm Mitt Romney, and I know you in the middle class are the backbone of this country, and nobody is paying any attention to how you're suffering and nobody is looking out for you and I'm the guy that's going to. I understand who makes this country great, I understand who makes this country work. It's not the rich. You in the middle class are the targets of every one of these policies Obama has come up with. You're the ones whose homes are underwater and you're the ones that can't make your mortgage payments. You're the ones who can't find work, I understand, and I'm here for you.
That's what he wanted to say. That's what he thought he did say with that comment. But he didn't say that. We all know. But you don't get the benefit of the doubt. You don't get, "Well, okay, we know what he meant to say," and then people correct for it.
RUSH: We're up to number 11, and we're sticking with the Scarborough show. The Drive-Bys went nuts with my assessment of Mitt Romney's statement that, (paraphrasing) "Don't worry about the poor, they got a safety net. I'll fix it if it breaks. I'm worried about the middle class." Heilemann is the national affairs editor at New York Magazine. He's on Scarborough's show. Scarborough said, "Look, Romney ran a powerful company. A lot of our children are not gonna have to worry as much as I know some of us here had to worry growing up." Joe, this is where, God love you, we're all going to have to worry, even us rich people in the media, Joe. Everybody's going to have to worry. Well, Joe said that he's not gonna have to worry, his children are gonna have to worry, but a lot of other people -- Joe, no fortune is safe.
I mean if this bunch is out of money, where are they gonna go to get some? They have to go to the people who've got it, and that includes you. This notion that people who've made it, make it forever, not true. People fall out of and jump back in all the different income quintiles. Nobody's income or financial status is the same their entire life. And once you've made it doesn't mean you're not gonna lose it all. And it doesn't mean an aggressive government can't try to come take it from you. It's what many people fear. But, anyway, Joe said, "Romney ran a powerful company. A lot of our children, John, we're not gonna have to worry as much as I know some of us here had to worry growing up. Am I gonna be able to take care of my family? Am I gonna be able to go to a good school? There's a disconnect here that's really troubling, because a lot of Americans are not gonna be able to answer 'yes' to those questions where you and I can."
HEILEMANN: Rush says it makes it easier for you to paint a picture of him as a prototypical rich Republican. People start to wonder, well, maybe he is just a prototypical rich Republican. Joe, you remember back when Jack Kemp was a major figure in national Republican politics. A very conservative guy. These kinds of things would never have come out of Jack Kemp's mouth because Jack Kemp was really concerned about the very poor. Jack Kemp was trying to figure out a way, in an active way all the time. And there were other Republicans, but I'm gonna single out him because he was a Republican vice presidential nominee in 1996. He made a big part of his conservative agenda, how do we use conservative tools to help the worst off?
RUSH: Well, conservatism is the way out of poverty. You don't need special conservative tools. Conservatism is. But whether you say prototypical or stereotypical, the point is the media has concocted a false image of rich Republicans. The truly dastardly wealthy today are Democrats. There are far more of them. The true evil, mean-spirited, don't care about people rich, is the Democrats. They don't use their own money for anything. They give very little to charity. My problem with what Romney did is it feeds the stereotype. Rich Republican who doesn't relate to or understand or care about the poor. It was a gaffe in that regard. Scarborough replied to Heilemann.
SCARBOROUGH: Conservatives aren't bashing the media here. It's Rush Limbaugh. You're talking about the most influential conservative saying Mitt Romney is really making our job a lot harder.
GEIST: Conservatives got an opening, too, with the content of what he said. They weren't worried about him saying "I'm not concerned about the poor;" they were worried about him saying, "We need to strengthen the social net." They went, "No, no, no, no. That's not the answer."
RUSH: That's exactly right. The social safety net has been proven to be a failure. Once people fall into that net, they don't get out of that. That net swallows 'em up. It becomes a hammock, as it was designed. That safety net was not designed with compassion. That was what they said it was for. Oh, yeah, it's always that we care for the poor. If you really help the poor you teach 'em how not to be. And there's a word for this called a job. You go out and say that now and you get a cynical reaction, "Oh, yeah, easy for you to say." Well, what if we all said a job is something cynical that's not worth having? It's just ridiculous. F. Chuck Todd was out there on the same show and Willie Geist, the last guy you heard speaking, said, "What happens here, I think a lot of Republicans have come to the point where they say, 'Okay, this is Mitt Romney. This is the guy.' At some point there's a pattern. How do they deal with this guy going forward?"
TODD: They were hoping to run as the successful businessman, and, you know, part of this has been the pressure that the Obama campaign's also been trying to put on Romney of trying to paint him as a caricature of a successful businessman that wasn't really involved in the job creation process, was more involved in this idea of creative destruction, Wall Street capitalism versus Main Street capitalism. And I think that that pressure's gotten to the Romney campaign a little bit.
RUSH: Yeah, maybe, perhaps. But that's not what's going on here. What's going on here is that a root level of understanding doesn't exist. The root level understanding conservatism doesn't exist. That's all this is. I, from the get-go, said, the way to do this, the way to overcome the fact that media is gonna be going after our nominee, whoever it is, just stick to conservatism, particularly given what we're up against, the contrast is dynamic. But the establishment Republicans just don't like conservatism. They don't like conservatives, except on Election Day every four years.
So on Daily Rundown on MSNBC (this is F. Chuck Todd's show that comes on after Scarborough), they had political editor from Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Josh Green, on to talk about Romney's remark, and F. Chuck said, "Hey, Josh, are we seeing Rush Limbaugh is right? The idea that Romney wouldn't be a focus in a general election like Newt would be? I don't know. Maybe he's right. Romney could be just as much of an issue as Newt." There's F. Chuck saying: You know, Republicans might be wrong. They think only Newt would be the issue? Maybe Romney could end up being an issue, too. What do you think about that, Josh?
GREEN: Absolutely. And whoever the Republican candidate is is gonna be pilloried for whatever their weaknesses are. You know, Newt would be explosive. You know, temperament anger unsteadiness. For Romney, it's obviously gonna be this profile of kind of an uncaring, out-of-touch, rich guy, "vulture capitalist."
RUSH: Last night in Minneapolis on local news, Romney said this while apologizing for his remark on CNN that he's not concerned about the poor. This is what he said...
ROMNEY: Sometimes things don't come out exactly the way you'd like them to. That's not exactly what I meant to say. My focus is on middle-income Americans. We do have a safety net for the very poor. And I said if there are holes in it, I want to correct that.
RUSH: (sigh) Okay. We know what he was trying to say. All these critics on the left that are on harping on the out-of-touch line know exactly what he was trying to say. But it's easy for them to ignore what he's trying to say. If he was Obama, if they were sympathetic, they'd give him the benefit of the doubt and this wouldn't be a story. But since it's an opportunity to nail conservatives, they'll take the out-of-context meaning and run with it and then run every other comment by me and other people that have been forthcoming. "Holes in the safety net. Yeah, I want to fix it." That means take care of the holes and maintain the safety net. Look, I'm getting blue in the face. I'm not gonna repeat myself. You know what I've said about it over and over. Let's just keep going with Newt responding to Romney.
GINGRICH: Let me say something here. I am fed up with politicians in either party dividing Americans against each other.
AUDIENCE: (smattering of cheers and applause)
GINGRICH: I am running to be the president of all the American people, and I am concerned about all of the American people.
RUSH: That was yesterday in Reno, Nevada, and Newt trying to say, "Look, I don't look at people in the safety net, not in the safety net, rich, poor, middle class. I'm gonna be president for everybody." That's the way he is trying to make hay out of this. Here's Krauthammer from Krauthammer Review Online. He was on Fox News, Special Report with Bret Baier last night.
KRAUTHAMMER: This is bad. It's not just that the day after the win in Florida. The real problem here is that it shows he doesn't have a fluency with conservative ideas. Conservatives are not the ones who either engage in the war of the classes or in a division of America into classes. Obama, the Democrats will win that kind of argument every day. The moral case for conservative economics is that our policies are gonna help everybody, including the poor. The idea that somehow we consign the poor to the safety net and we patch it and dependency is a liberal idea it's not our idea. And Romney is a guy who came late to his new ideology and he still can't speak it very well.
RUSH: It's pretty true. He came late to conservatism and can't speak it pretty well. It's like learning a foreign language. That's what Krauthammer is saying. Mark McKinnon ran Bush's media operation in 2000-2004. He started a group called No Labels, basically a bunch of moderate-to-liberal Republicans who didn't like being tied to conservatives and didn't like being associated with conservatives and labeled as such. So they start this new group out there, "No Labels," which is, "Look, we're bigger than labels. We're moderates! We're mainstreamers. We're the really smart people. We don't like these labels," and that's just who McKinnon is. McKinnon was on Larry Kudlow on CNBC last night. Kudlow said, "They're all saying Romney doesn't care about poor people. What do you think about that, utter nonsense or what?"
MCKINNON: I think his instincts were to try and get a message that's designed to the middle class, which the -- President Obama is successfully getting a lot of traction with. So the instinct was right; the execution was just bad. And that's where I think this long, drawn-out primary is, in many ways, problematic. Because we're seeing independents turning against Mitt Romney.
RUSH: Okay, that's it! If the independents are turning against Romney, it's all lost, you see? If we lose the independents it's all lost. (laughing) He's going to lose conservatives! "If we lose the independents... The execution was bad; the instinct was right." So what we're hearing is we gotta shut down these campaigns. We gotta stop the debates. We gotta shorten these campaigns so that our guy doesn't talk as much because it's a danger when he talks this much. I don't know, folks. I don't know.
RUSH: You know it's all about reflexes. This Romney thing, it's all about reflexes -- and it pains me to say this stuff. This show has not been easy. You don't... Well, maybe you do know, but he just doesn't have conservative reflexes. It's like trying to learn golf late in life: The reflexes just aren't there. You've got to have a foundation, a basic understanding to have the reflexes, and they just aren't there. And I don't know if he can learn 'em. We will find out.
RUSH: James Carville last night was on Anderson Cooper 291 spoke with Anderson Cooper about Romney. And Cooper said, "So you have 24 hours distance on it now. Romney goes out, says this stuff 24 hours after his win in Florida. How do you look at his victory now?"
CARVILLE: The problem a Mitt Romney has, he just is not that good a candidate. The guy is not good on his feet. Politically, he comes across as some kind of a detached doofus. You look at the -- the comments today among conservatives, you look at the concern. And he always conforms... He -- he has a -- a stereotype whether it's acc'rate or not that he is this kinda out-of-touch guy. That's why I said politically he comes across as a detached doofus. And this comment today just feeds into a perception there is about him. He's just not that good on his feet.
RUSH: Now, does somebody want to tell me the Democrats are not looking forward to running against Romney? You notice that Carville gave himself the option there to call him "a detached doofus" twice in a 36-second sound bite? As if Obama does not come across as detached. There's nobody more detached from reality than "Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm!" And there's no bigger doofus than Barack Hussein Obama. No bigger doofus and nobody more detached and nobody could be more wrong about things than "Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm!" And here is our wonderful Republican establishment: We can't have Newt, man! They're gonna make the campaign about him."
You know the Democrats are working on bumper stickers now: "Detached doofus." They're gonna have a picture of Mitt Romney with needle and thread sewing up the safety net. I can just see it. It's gonna be an ad. There's gonna be an ad. There's gonna be a caricature of Romney and he'll be, you know, crocheting a safety net with a bunch of poor people bouncing up and down in it. "Detached doofus says, 'I don't care about the poor.'" The establishment says, "Yeah, that's right! That's right! If Newt had been the nominee look what the campaign would have been about." Moon colonies! (laughing) I know, the 51st state. Find the first 13,000 American suckers to move up there and we'll call it the 51st state.

Private landowners forced into evasive action
But of course there has been wonderful and surprising community support for the ordinance that permits only five trees over 8" in diameter to be cut by a Woodinville landowner over a 12-month period.
Five trees per year are more than enough for someone's yard; so sure, support a blanket restriction on others more affected.
Those others who own excess wooded land that eventually will be developed, if only because high urban-area taxes will force the issue, should start immediately with a 5-trees-per-year cutting program.
Figure where future buildings should be located and start there.
It's government regulators who force private landowners into evasive actions. In this instance trees may be cut that otherwise would have many years remaining to provide environmental enhancement.

A South Philadelphia doctor, convicted on 18 of 19 counts relating to running a "pill mill" at his office at 7th and Morris Streets, was sentenced today to seven years in federal prison.
Richard Minicozzi, 79, who lives in Elkins Park, sold prescriptions for oxycodone and distributed Vicodin and Xanax for cash to "patients" who had no legitimate need for the drugs, prosecutors said.
Minicozzi's attorney, Jeff Miller, told the Inquirer that his client suffers from dementia and that wholesalers who sold him the drugs are guilty of profiting from the unusually high volumes Minicozzi ordered.

Fixed PriceBudget: $120
Start DateJanuary 27, 2013
A commandline application which creates modified duplicates of a mesh.
The Modifiers will translate, scale and rotate the copies in a given space.
Modifiers can be cascaded.
Basic knowledge of 3d formats and OpenGL would help.
- reads a single mesh in wavefront OBJ format.
- generates N copies of the original mesh and
- applies a modifier chain to each copy.
- writes the generated output to an OBJ file.
Having a single tree mesh, we could place the duplicates
following a terrain surface. The y position would be defined by the terrain
mesh, the xz position would be random.
We also would rotate and scale the trees resulting in a more natural look.
Modifiers are a node in a directed graph and have 0..N modifier inputs
and 1..M outputs.
The output of a modifier depends on its type:
A rotation modifier has a radian output.
A scale modifier has a 3d point output.
A translation modifier has a 3d point output.
Example of a modifier chain:
A modifier SINE generates a sine wave to displace the y position of a mesh.
In order to make the sine wave a bit more irregular,
a random modifier RAND feeds into the SINE modifier. RAND is dependent
on the distance from the center, resulting in more randomness at the outer area.
The application uses the standard STL concept of separated container and algorithms. 3d points are stored in simple float structures.
A commandline test app which reads a single OBJ file and does some basic
hardcoded operations, outputs the result to a new OBJ file.
The OBJ file will be validated in an external 3d application (Blender).
Source must be uploaded to a private github repository.
Platform and language
The code must be written in cross platform C++ using STL.

The Ricoh CX3 is a 10-megapixel compact camera with a 10.7x zoom lens - UPDATED 14-04-2010
At 205g, the Ricoh CX3 is at the slightly weighty end of digital cameras that earn the compact name. And measuring 100x59x28mm, it's also a little fatter than the norm. But with a generous 10.7 optical zoom from the 28-300mm lens, and 10-megapixel resolution, you'll find more potential than from a typical compact.
The Ricoh CX3 camera is solidly built, our sample finished in anodised black, with a comfortable finger grip to the right. On the rear is a bright 3in LCD display, capable of showing pictures with great definition. In fact, in playback mode, they can almost look over-sharpened.
Navigating the Ricoh CX3's on-screen menus is easy with small but quite legible text used in favour of garish cartoony icons. Look through the setup menus and you'll find an impressive range of options, like Skew Correction and Level Compensation in playback mode, while the shooting menus allowing you to easily switch between such settings as the eight different focus options - Multi AF, Spot AF, Face-Pri AF, Continuous AF, Multi-targt AF, Snap and Infinity.
Start-up time is a little sluggish at around four seconds, most of that time waiting for the fat three-ring lens to motor forward to its 33mm extension. To zoom, you use the usual two-way toggle to the side of the top mode dial, and we noted that its zoom action is not the very smoothest you can expect.
As you can now expect of full-featured compacts, the Ricoh CX3 is capable of shooting high-definition-sized video, in this case 1280x720p. The resulting footage is bright and relatively faithfully coloured, with softening of edges and to remind you this is no real camcorder, HD or otherwise.
And zoom in while shooting and you'll see plenty of pixellation, suggesting digital rather than optical magnification at work here. But sound quality from the mono mic is rather good, captured as 16-bit uncompressed PCM with 16kHz bandwidth.
Still pictures from the Ricoh CX3 are also rendered without obvious spectral bias toward particular colours. Zoom in to 100% on strong dynamic contrasts, though, and you may notice the chromatic aberration, with a hint of red/green ghosting to the outlines of edges.
Low light shots are certainly better than you'll find on any entry-level compact, but with auto ISO creeping beyond 1000 ISO, expect some noise and artefacting.
A DR (dynamic range) option on the Ricoh CX3 combines two separately taken shots to enhance image quality. Taking these shots adds a few seconds to each snap but the result is worth waiting for.
Extra scene modes include such effects as Miniaturize, which blurs the top and bottom of the picture to simulate an exaggerated limited depth of field.
NEXT PAGE: The PC World Australia review >>
Ricoh's CX3 is a compact digital camera for users who want something largely automatic and comfortable to use. It's a light camera with a big, 10.7x optical zoom lens and a 10-megapixel CMOS sensor. It feels well built and looks stylish, and its image quality is great for the most part, although it does produce images with noticeable noise.
The Ricoh CX3 digital camera is the upgrade to last year's Ricoh CX2, but it's not much of an upgrade to be honest. Its sensor packs in a few more pixels compared to the CX2, so it produces slightly higher resolution photos using the same size sensor; it has a higher ISO capability (up to 3200); the flash has a slightly longer range (4m compared to 3m when shooting in the wide angle); face detection has been added, which brings it in line with most other compact cameras on the market; and a new scene mode called Discreet mode has been added. Perhaps the most noteworthy new feature is the ability to capture HD video (1280x720). Unfortunately, an HDMI output has not been added.
The Ricoh CX2 could only capture VGA-sized (640x480) videos, so the added resolution makes the Ricoh CX3 a better proposition for users who are looking for a "hybrid" camera with which to take stills and video. We found video shot with the CX3 to be smooth and clear, but zooming wasn't easy. If you are zoomed in when you start taking a video, you can't zoom out - you can only zoom in further (and then back out). In general, you're better off not zooming at all as each zoom step also introduces an audible pause in the video.
Because there are no manual shooting modes on Ricoh CX3, you can't wrestle with the exposure like you would on an advanced compact, and this can lead to unsatisfactory results if the lighting conditions are difficult. There is no doubt that the Ricoh CX3 can capture some wonderful images, but it won't work magic if the lighting is too strong or too dim. Without manual controls to adjust the aperture and shutter, some of your shots might be tarnished by harsh light.
There are plenty of scene modes to play with, and you should definitely consider using them to give the camera a better idea of what you are trying to accomplish. A new scene mode has been added to the list since the Ricoh CX2. Called Discreet mode, this just allows you to take photos without any audible beeps coming from the camera, and without the flash or focus assist lamp. It's designed so that you can take photos in quiet places such as museums. You also get miniature mode and a black and white mode, and there are also the usual modes for capturing scenery, portraits, indoor subjects and close-ups.
The overall picture quality of the Ricoh CX3 is very good. Images look clear and colours tend to look natural. However, some of our test photos indoors and in dim lighting conditions could have used more colour saturation.
You can give photos more of a 'pop' by using the Vivid colour setting that's present in the camera's menu. This will add a dash more contrast to your shots without making them look muddy.
Although Ricoh has added a further ISO speed to the Ricoh CX3 (ISO 3200), photos taken at this speed will have plenty of noise and a substantial drop in contrast. But even at ISO 400 you start to notice grain on the smooth surfaces of your photos. The camera can select the ISO speed automatically or you can set it yourself. There is no limiting function to allow the camera to take photos within a range that you specify.
In general, most of the pictures the Ricoh CX3 took at low ISO speeds looked good when viewed at up to 1920x1200, but when we viewed them at their native size (3648x2736), they looked too soft and noisy.
Despite the noisiness at ISO 400 and beyond (which is similar to what we saw in the Ricoh CX2), the Ricoh CX3 is still a fun camera to use. It can take great macros, has a manual focusing feature that is much better than most compact cameras, and for the most part it will take clear and natural looking photos. We also like its build quality and the way the camera feels. We just wish it had an HDMI port and that it could handle bright scenes without blowing out highlights.
Ricoh's CX3 isn't much of an upgrade over the CX2 but it does offer HD video recording, which makes it a useful hybrid for people wishing to shoot stills and video with the same camera. Its pictures are a little noisy and it can struggle in bright light, but overall its image quality is very good.

How To Video Stream From Mac To Apple TV
Earlier this month, Erica Sadun – hacker and writer for TUAW had launched an alpha-stage ad supported tool called AirPlayer that enabled users to stream videos from their iPhone or iPad to a Mac computer using AirPlay. The tool basically hacked a Mac and made it camouflage itself as an Apple TV that subsequently helped her stream her videos from an iDevice using AirPlay.
Now in another nifty development, Sadun has developed another tool called AirFlick that will enable Mac users to stream videos from their computers to an Apple TV. She writes,
"AirFlick works by transforming your Mac into a web browser, the same way AirPlay works on your iPhone or other iOS device. For Mac-based files, AirFlick tells your Apple TV to connect to a local URL and serves the data that the Apple TV plays back. So long as those files are in a supported format such as mp4, m4v, mp3, etc, the Apple TV can read and display the file data."
AirFlick comes with a number of additional features like transcoding of unsupported file formats in real time as well as the ability to play videos directly from the web.
You can download the alpha-version of the software by clicking here. Also, check out a video demo of AirFlick embedded below.
How To Stream Videos From iPhone To Mac Using AirPlay
If you are an Apple TV owner, you may have already checked out the AirPlay feature that lets users to stream videos and other media content from an iOS-based device to your television over Apple TV. Now, Erica Sadun – a hacker and a writer for TUAW has come up with a custom version of AirPlay that brings the nifty wireless streaming service to Macs.
Called AirPlayer, this software basically lets a Mac to camouflage itself as an Apple TV thereby letting you stream videos to your computer. AirPlayer does not require you to jailbreak your device and is currently available only for Macs. Erica says that a variant of AirPlayer can be easily created for Windows and Linux platforms as well though she is unlikely to release one soon.
So, if you are a Mac user, then head over to Erica's website here to download an alpha-stage ad-supported version of AirPlayer.
New iPad Commercial Showcases AirPlay, AirPrint & Multitasking Features
Apple has started airing a new iPad commercial to audiences in the United States that showcases all the recent additions that the company has introduced to the iPad – including AirPrint, AirPlay and multitasking.
The iPad commercial begins with a demonstration of the iPad's ability to "create" documents instead of being merely able to consume media. It further notes the other major introductions with iOS 4.2 including the ability to wireless print documents, stream media to television, multitask and be used as an education and productivity device.
You can check out the video embedded below.
Well, I have objections to the rosy picture painted by the commercial – to be fair, the iPad does not work well as a media creation tool, the Airplay and AirPrint features are pretty limited at the moment and it is really not a device you should buy if you are thinking of working on a lot of documents. But then, it's after all an ad. So I shouldn't be complaining.
AirPlay Wireless Video Streaming From All iPhone Apps Coming In 2011
If you had upgraded your iDevice to iOS 4.2 thinking that it would bring the highly anticipated AirPlay on your favorite iPhone app, you may have been disappointed to know that the wireless audio and video streaming feature is currently restricted to YouTube and the iPod apps alone.
We had recently written about an application called AirVideoEnabler that lets iPhones access AirPlay on all iOS applications including applications like Mobile Safari and VLC. However since this is a jailbreak app, it is not available on all iPhones – at least for users who do not want to risk a void on warranty.
Apparently, this feature may be coming soon to all applications. An email conversation between an Apple TV customer and Steve Jobs is doing the rounds that hints at the roll-out of the service by early 2011. Here is a transcript of the email conversation
Customer : Hi, I recently updated both my iPhone 4 and iPad to 4.2. I think my favourite feature is airplay. This is seriously amazing and makes sharing content seamless. I just purchased Apple TV and was wondering are you ever going to make airplay video work for videos in safari and 3rd party apps? I hope to get a response.
Jobs : Yep, hope to add these features to Airplay in 2011.
Now the authenticity of the email is not known. Anyway, we do hope that Apple brings AirPlay to all iOS apps sooner rather than later.
Jailbreak App To Enable AirPlay On All iPhone Apps Launched
Apple has introduced the new AirPlay feature that lets users to wirelessly stream audio and video content to compatible devices. However this feature is not enabled on all the iOS applications currently. While this has come as a disappointment to users, it should not really be a big deal if you have already jailbroken your iPhone.
A new application called AirVideoEnabler is now available for download on the Cydia store that brings AirPlay to all the iOS apps including those like Safari and VLC. Apparently, a single line of code in the iOS is responsible for blocking AirPlay over these applications and the new launch fixes this feature.
Interested users may download the AirVideoEnabler app from this repository: http://cydia.zone-mr.net. Also, check out the video below to see the app in action.

Football has always been one of LeRoy Nieman's favorite subjects. The history of this suite is duly noted in the accompanying documentation sheet: "In 1972, a limited edition of 150 suites of black and white photo-etchings was made from the artist's drawings, numbered 1-150, and signed by the artist in pencil in the bottom margin on the right side. Also produced at that time were 30 Artist's proof suites. In 1992, the artist hand painted one suite, and 125 of the 150 suites were then colored by serigraphy. The other suites remain as black and white photo-etchings. There are no colored Artist's proofs." Each of these ten different etchings was limited to an edition of just 150. Each of the artworks offered here is signed by Neiman and hand numbered "123/150" in the lower left corner. Image area: 7.5 x 8.25 inches. Total: 10 signed and individually numbered etchings. Reserve $500. Estimate (open). SOLD FOR $2,350.00

N.C. State coach Mark Gottfried continues to make quick work of rebuilding the N.C. State program. In his first year, he scored a number of recruiting victories while leading the Wolfpack to a surprising Sweet 16 run.
This year, he has N.C. State ranked at No. 9 in Sporting News' preseason poll and has continued his mastery on the recruiting trail.
On Wednesday night, he landed commitment from two top-50 prospects in the Class of '14 -- homegrown small forwards Caleb and Cody Martin.
The 6-7 twins from Mocksville, N.C., are ranked Nos. 34 and 35 by ESPN and Nos. 40 and 42 by Rivals.com. They picked N.C. State over offers from North Carolina, Georgetown, Tennessee and Xavier, among others.
"We know how important the ACC is," Caleb told ESPN. "We grew up around it and we got to see how great it was. We always wanted to be a part of it. Now that we're close to home and getting to play here is a great feeling."
Cody said he and Caleb never considered separating for college and that they probably will room together at N.C. State, too. Both are true small forwards who handle the ball well enough to play some guard, and Caleb is stout enough to play inside at power forward in a pinch, too.
