What No Bids for Twitter Tell Us about Google Facebook & Online AdvertisingSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Fri, 2016-10-21 10:58
What does it tell us that no company ultimately bid to buy Twitter over the last month despite several reported brand-name interested buyers?
Twitter is the eighth-most-visited Internet site in the world; the best site in the world for real-time content; and is one of the few public companies in the marketplace that is growing revenue at a 20% annual rate – and no one even submitted a low-ball bid for Twitter? What is going on here?
Apparently, it tells us that there are only two companies in the world that could grow, leverage and monetize Twitter to make it worth roughly $20b under current circumstances – Alphabet-Google and Facebook -- and they both practically can't buy Twitter for antitrust reasons.
Let's analyze why.
First, Google and Facebook each individually would face unwanted serious antitrust risk.
Currently, Alphabet-Google is embroiled in this century's biggest antitrust case in the EU.
FCC's STB "Unlock-the-Box" Is a Trojan Horse to Unlock Copyright LicensingSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Mon, 2016-09-26 15:50
When a PR tactic masquerades as principle or sound policy a mess inevitably ensues.
Google and Public Knowledge, the two leading corporate and interest group entities respectively that are opposed to copyright in America, plotted that they could disguise their real intent to "unlock copyright licensing" and devalue the valuable "information flows" of the $200b a year U.S. pay TV industry, with a clever #UnlockTheBox consumer "gift"/sneak attack… just like Greeks did in the Trojan War using the purported "gift" of a huge wooden "Trojan Horse" as a trick to secretly enable soldiers hidden inside the horse to gain entry to the securely protected city of Troy.
We now know that this FCC AllVid/Set-Top-Box (STB) rulemaking was not really about unlocking set-top-boxes for consumer benefit, but predominantly about unlocking copyright licenses for the nation's most valuable video programming – to de facto, open-force more proprietary information to be free on the Open Internet.
Will FCC Force AllVid Search Neutrality on Pay TV Providers to Help Google?Submitted by Scott Cleland on Wed, 2016-09-14 19:56
How can the FCC imagine it is pro-competitive to help Google expand its search monopoly by illegally forcing the search neutrality principle that Google opposes as never justified, on competitive pay-TV providers, in order to divert pay-TV viewer traffic to piracy-friendly Google-YouTube's 1.6 billion viewers?
Will the Federal Communications Congress Try to Unlock Copyright Licensing?Submitted by Scott Cleland on Wed, 2016-09-07 13:57
Multiple sources indicate the FCC is on path to include in its final proposed AllVid set-top box order a de facto FCC office of copyright licensing to try and politically paper over obvious policy and enforcement gaps in FCC authority.
It is further evidence that the "Unlock the Box" proponents pushing AllVid are really bent on "unlocking the copyrights, licenses, and contracts" that collectively protect $200b worth of annual video programming business, not the purported $20b set-top box business.
That's because AllVid proponents continue to demand their initial outrageous and unlawful claim that the FCC should force the pay TV and video programmer industries to give Big Internet companies their $200b of video programming flows for free -- because the Internet wants information to be free.
The FCC's big legitimacy problem here is that the FCC is not operating in a legal area where they can argue they are due broad court deference, because in this instance the law is very clear.
The FCC does not have the authority to force property owners to give away their copyrighted property for free or to forfeit their legal licensing or contract rights.
Appeals Court Blasts Big Deregulatory Hole between FCC & FTC JurisdictionsSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Wed, 2016-08-31 10:13
FCC and FTC meet the law of unintended consequences.
A Ninth Circuit Court decision overturned an FTC enforcement action against AT&T for "throttling" broadband data speeds by definitively ruling that the FTC did not have any legal jurisdiction over AT&T (and other common carriers) because of the explicit common carrier exemption in the FTC's core Section 5 legal authority.
Will FCC Allow Google to become the Fox that Guards its AllVid Henhouse?Submitted by Scott Cleland on Thu, 2016-08-25 13:50
A fox should not be allowed to guard a henhouse, unless the farmer wants the fox to eat all the hens.
Neither should the world's fiercest corporate opponent of copyright, Google, be allowed to be the FCC's technological guard of $200b worth of annual video programming revenues, in the FCC's AllVid Set-Top Box rulemaking, unless the FCC wants Google-YouTube and others to be able to pirate the nation's video-programming property without paying for it.
New App-Based AllVid Proposal Smokes-out Google & Public Knowledge's AgendaSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Mon, 2016-06-20 11:48
Are the FCC's set-top-box proposed rules really about unlocking the set-top-box to competition or are they really about advancing Google and Public Knowledge's real agenda – forced unlocking of the licensing and copyright protections of the underlying video programming that generates ~$200b in annual revenues?
In response to the FCC Chairman's request for an alternative approach to the FCC's current AllVid proposed rules, the Pay TV coalition has proposed an app-based solution that solves all of the FCC's publicly-stated problems with cable set-top boxes.
Why Google Can't Buy Yahoo's Search & Advertising PatentsSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Fri, 2016-06-10 11:18
Given that Google bought Motorola for its patents to protect itself from patent litigation, many assume Alphabet-Google to be a likely bidder and buyer of Yahoo's reported sale of its portfolio of ~3,000 1990s search, advertising and ecommerce patents.
Au contraire, big antitrust vulnerabilities and a decade of Googlian hostility to the intellectual property rights of competitors effectively rule them out of this Yahoo auction.
Google's lawyers have to appreciate that Google bidding on Yahoo's patents would self-shine antitrust spotlights exactly where Google does not want them shined, and would attract attention to Google's ignominious pattern of disrespect for the property of competitors and the bloody trail of intellectual property infringement lawsuits Google has uniquely provoked over the last fourteen years.
Why Google can't buy Yahoo's search, advertising & ecommerce patents.
Google's Growing US Search/Android Share Complicates FCC's AllVid ProposalSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Mon, 2016-05-23 22:39
[Note: this blog was submitted to the FCC as a reply comment in the AllVid Set Top Box NPRM.]
As more evidence comes to light exposing Google's much increased search and Android dominance in the U.S. since the FTC closed its search and Android antitrust probes in January 2013, it only becomes clearer that the FCC's AllVid proposed rulemaking to "Unlock the [set-top] Box" is obviously anticompetitive overall, not pro-competitive as the FCC naively claims.
(A brief context refresh is needed here. In a nutshell, Google is the primary impetus behind the FCC's controversial AllVid set top box proposal that would force U.S. pay-TV providers to effectively open-source cable set-top boxes and the $200b worth of proprietary video programming/information that flows through them, so that Google and other edge platforms could monetize that proprietary video programming without a license -- for free.
How Oracle v. Google Magnifies Google's Android Antitrust VulnerabilitiesSubmitted by Scott Cleland on Wed, 2016-05-04 19:07
1 Oracle v. Google case + 1 EU Android Tying Case = 3
While the U.S. Oracle v. Google Java API copyright case that will recommence in public court this month has been completely independent of the EU Google-Android antitrust case, in sovereign jurisdiction, type of law, legal process, timetable and alleged offense, these two cases ultimately could have huge, much underappreciated implications for each other, because they are both about the same thing -- purposeful illegal actions that Google chose to do to extend its search-related dominance into mobile via Android.

MOBILE, Alabama -- Red Square Agency's work will soon be on display in six of the world's seven continents.
Sorry, Antarctica. Better luck next time.
The marketing and advertising agency -- Mobile's largest -- recently inked a deal with Hilton Hotels & Resorts for a global creative assignment, Red Square President Rich Sullivan said.
Red Square can't disclose terms of the deal or details about the project, Sullivan said, but the work will cover the company's flagship Hilton brand, which has 550 hotels and resorts for in 78 countries around the world.
"It's big deal for us from a visibility standpoint," Sullivan said.
Red Square has sales reps that look for new clients, but Hilton contacted the agency after coming across some of its work.
"Hilton saw something we did, Googled us, looked at YouTube videos of case studies we did and called us," he said. "Ten years ago, we wouldn't have gotten on Hilton's radar."
The Hilton contract is the latest feather in Red Square's cap. The agency, which employs about 70 people in its downtown offices, has recently added several big names from around the country to its client roster, including Florida's Full Sail University, Oklahoma's Cherokee Nation Entertainment and California's Google Inc.
"Our goal is to be a national agency that just happens to live in Alabama," Sullivan said.

Alta Schools land $317,000 grant windfall
The Buena Vista County Historical Society is ready to move its log house and one-room school to make way for Project AWAYSIS. Just one problem - where to?
Plans to relocate the historic buildings with a new senior center to the site of the old water plant in Sunrise Park were turned down by the city council recently.
"The city is getting anxious for us to get moved, but we don't have a place to move to," said Susan Thompson of the historical society board. The group met this week, but could reach no solution. They have scheduled another meeting for next Wednesday.
She said her group is not opposing AWAYSIS, and that city officials have been eager to work with the historical society.
"We were all ready to go for the Sunset Park spot. Of course, we would prefer not to move at all, but that is not an option, either. All we can do is keep looking for ideas on where to place our buildings."
The historical board doesn't want to use Radio Park because of the many guide wires that they fear could cause problems for young children attending Country School Days each year at the schoolhouse museum. They worry about vandalism and accessibility with Frank Starr Park, distant from the heart of the community.
The distance of moving the old buildings is an issue, and the historical society also wants a site to relocate the Bessie's garden display.
The Alta Community Schools this week received a $317,557 grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Grants to Improve the Mental Health of Children program.
Iowa Senator Tom Harkin is the ranking Democrat on the Senate panel that funds such education initiatives. "It is crucial that we employ the best possible resources to support our students' mental and physical health," Harkin said.
The grant is intended to help the Alta district develop innovative links between the school system and local mental health systems.

question..want honest opinions..
If it is a restaurant/bar then I see nothing wrong with it. The only time I see issues with situations like that is if you actually have your child in a bar only establishment or have them sitting with at the bar (like on a stool). The good thing is tha at least most places don't allow any kind of smoking inside anymore so at least you don't have your LO at a bar/restaurant type place with cigg smoke everywhere.
Honestly I would have silently made comments about feeding a LO dessert at 9:00+ more than anything else.
In my state, there is no smoking in restaurants anymore, so that would be a non-issue
We had a neighborhood gathering at a restaurant/ bar, and I had no problem taking my son there. There was no smoking, and, really, there was like one person at the bar. The owner's son, age six, was running around the place too, and he even said that he was 'having a sleepover' in the bar that night, lol! My son LOVED playing with that kid! As long as I was not near smoking and trashed people, I would not have an issue; most likely, we would not be out with a toddler during busy bar hours anyway- lol!
Platinum Boobies ( . Y . )
I always love getting comments from the 'perfect parents' who never did anything wrong/bad or made mistakes with their LOs. Lol. I have found that many of these people either have kids who have spent a lifetime lying to them (eg. they live with a so, but do not tell their parents because parents believe in marriage first), or they are just the really odd helicopter types. Ick. So you stopped to say hello to a friend. C'mon, folks, it is not exactly child abuse. A late night out too-- the horror!

Two Tarts makes its ice cream in-house, and offers three flavors, which it keeps in tiny rectangular Tupperware containers in a little semi-hidden freezer. I looked up at the chalkboard and immediately ordered the dayâs special flavor, which was lemon curd. It was rich, thick, and a little bit grainy; ribbons of bright yellow lemon custard wound through the buttery yellow scoop, giving it a nice variance of texture. Perfect for the weather during my visit, which was cool and overcastâit's rich and filling, but the lemon is so mouthwatering itâs almost savory.

Friends, colleagues pay tribute to 'one of the best,' Mitch Mitchusson
Poulsbo's Mayor Mitch was remembered Saturday at a memorial service in Sons of Norway hall as a man of bear hugs and bib overalls, who learned his values in the fields of Oklahoma and carried them decades later into elected office.
Richard A. "Mitch" Mitchusson, the city's longest-serving mayor, was lauded for his compassion and devotion to Poulsbo. He was remembered as a sharp political mover in possession of a wicked sense of humor, one of the city's greatest ambassadors. He died Nov. 19 at the age of 71.
It was Mitchusson's big personality and his motivating nature that made him so successful in city government, his former colleagues said. His was a character forged from life experiences that never left him without a story to tell. His hands bore the scars of a plane crash he survived while in the Navy. During Norway's King Hareld and Queen Sonja's visit to Poulsbo in 1995, the king and the mayor stole away for a cigarette.
Mitchusson's character remained intact during difficult times as well. In 2009, he was held briefly in Kitsap County Jail on charges stemming, his attorney Matt Clucas said, from behavioral problems caused by Pick's Disease. The jail guards took extra care of Mitchusson, who also suffered from cancer, Clucas said.
"They were either all helped by him or knew someone who was helped by him," he recalled.
As he left jail, Mitchusson offered a friendly list of suggested jail improvements.
"(He) wasn't in the business of politics or government ... he was in the people business," said his son, Rick Mitchusson, who led the afternoon of memory sharing and tributes.
More than 150 people attended his service, where Poulsbo lapel pins — a staple Mitchusson was never without and frequently gave away — were divvied up to be given to others in his honor.
"Mitch was one of the best mayors we ever had and those of us who followed knew we had big shoes to fill," said Donna Jean Bruce, a former mayor of Poulsbo who was appointed to office by Mitchusson when he resigned in 1999. She said he had a knack for remembering people's names, and remained friends with those he didn't politically agree with.
Mitchusson was born in Bradley, Okla., where his father was a farmer and county roads employee and his mother tended the fields and house. He was the youngest of three kids, known as Dicky to his family. On his 17th birthday, Mitchusson enlisted in the Navy, which brought him to Kitsap.
He retired as a senior chief yeoman in 1975 and joined the Poulsbo Public Works Department. Eventually, he became head of the department.
Mitchusson was elected mayor in 1985 after a vote of no confidence stripped the city's former mayor and five council members of their titles. He went on to win three subsequent elections, and is credited for rebuilding the public's trust in government, renovating Front Street and creating the Historic Downtown Poulsbo Association, developing plans for College Marketplace and bringing an Olympic College campus to town.
Dale Rudolph, a former long-time city councilman, said Mitchusson's impact ranks among those of the city's founding fathers.
Mitchusson was a member of the Sons of Norway, the Poulsbo Historical Society and the Poulsbo Friends of the Library.
Poulsbo Mayor Becky Erickson remembered Mitchusson as a jovial, caring man with impressive strength and resolve, qualities he could embody simultaneously.
"How do you do both of those things? I don't know, but he did," Erickson said.
Mitchusson was remembered by Barbara, his wife of 33 years, as someone who gave of his time and abilities for friends and strangers alike — a man the community was better for having.
"I was so lucky," she said. "We were all so lucky."

Title: High Frequency Amplifier Circuit Modeling
Abstract: This presentation will address small signal and large signal modeling of SiGe Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (SiGe HBT) based microwave amplifier, to be used for phase noise characterization in the frequency range of 10MHz → 6GHz. The large signal model includes high frequency models of passive components, microstrip and SMA connector. The predictive model's capabilities were validated with measured and simulated output power and S-Parameters. The results indicated that large signal amplifier model was successfully developed in Ansoft Designer (AD). The AD model can be used for analyzing additive phase noise (phase and thermal) at various input power to the microwave amplifier operating under a large-signal condition. With this model the measured and simulated phase noise can be compared for various DC bias, RF input signal frequency and power level.

Title: Data Mining of Complex Scientific Data
Abstract: Data Mining has established itself as a discipline for analyzing data that are too complex and / or too large for conventional statistics or machine learning techniques. While many data mining algorithms have been developed that use ad hoc measures of interestingness, science and engineering applications require that results can be justified based on rigorous statistical measures. This presentation will focus on work to identify patterns between sets of continuous attributes and one or more binary attributes. These patterns are, for example, of interest in combinatorial chemistry experiments, in which binary attributes can be used to characterize sample composition, and multiple experimental observations are recorded for each sample. Other applications include experiments on gene deletion mutants in microbiology. The presentation will conclude with an overview of other work on data mining of complex data performed in my research group.
Speaker bio: Anne Denton is Associate Professor in the Computer Science Department at North Dakota State University (NDSU). She received her Ph.D. in Physics from the Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany, in 1996 and a M.S. in Computer Science from NDSU in 2003. Her research interests are in data mining of diverse scientific data sets that are too complex to be analyzed using classical statistics or machine learning techniques, and for which rigorous significance evaluations are required. She works with collaborators in plant sciences, microbiology, and the chemistry of coatings.

Title: Energy- and reliability-aware mapping for Networks-on-Chip
Abstract: The problem of energy consumption and reliability oriented application mapping on regular Network-on-Chip topologies is formulated. A novel branch-and-bound based algorithm to solve this problem is proposed. Reliability is estimated by an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm based on the destruction spectrum of the network. Simulation results demonstrate that network reliability can be improved without sacrificing much of energy consumption.

Title: Damping intr area oscillations in power systems with DFIGs
Abstract: With rapid depletion of fossil fuels and increasing environmental concerns, the trend to capture renewable energy, especially through wind energy resources is increasing. Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) is the most widely used generator for wind energy conversion because of its various advantages over other types of generators. In a DFIG, the rotor is fed through back to back converters via slip rings. The converters enable the generation control. This control property can be used to support the reliable operation of a network system.
Inter-area oscillations have been a major factor in limiting power transfers in interconnected power systems. Poorly damped modes can trigger oscillatory instability potentially leading to cascading blackouts in such systems. We consider a two-area system where DFIG based wind generation is integrated with conventional synchronous generators. A simple controller is proposed for DFIG to improve the damping of inter-area oscillations. To support the proposition case studies are conducted in Matlab/Simulink. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is then analyzed by eigen-value analysis and verified with time domain simulation results. The results show that a properly tuned controller can increase the damping of the dominant oscillatory mode by nearly 5% while improving the area transfer by about 300 MW.

Title: The Finite Element Method in Photonic
Abstract: In recent years, advances in the fields of near-field optics, nanoscale manufacturing, transportation and confinement of light in regions smaller than the wavelength has resulted in the emergence of new areas of research in nanophotonics and plasmonics. The numerical technique of the 2D Finite Element Method (2D-FEM) is introduced with differential equations that govern electromagnetic waves propagation in Photonic Structures. To demonstrate the applicability the method, several numerical examples are presented.

Title: Accounting for Long Duration Transients
Abstract: Measuring impedance of an object can reveal a number of useful details about said object. However, when the object has a particularly large impedance it will also have a proportionally long transient. In the case where the transient exists for longer than the measurement duration the accuracy of the measurement is effected. This presentation will address a method that will minimize the effect of this transient has on the accuracy of the impedance measurement.

Title: Modeling Wireless Channels: Some Basics, and New Results for Severe Fading and Statistical Non-Stationarity
Abstract: The wireless propagation channel is typically the most challenging element facing reliable communication in many communication systems today. Both large-scale propagation path loss, and small-scale (multipath) fading can render the received signal either too weak, or too distorted for reliable message transfer. Although wireless channels in various environments and in various frequency bands have been studied for decades, this is still an active area of research because of the growth (and breadth) of wireless applications [1]. A larger user population, higher data rates, and connectivity over larger areas all require that accurate models for the channel be available for system analysis, design, and development. In this talk, we first review some fundamentals of propagation, and the most common method for modeling wireless channels: linear, time-varying filters [2]. These models are nearly always stochastic, for two reasons: (1) the propagation environment for most terrestrial applications is too complex to efficiently model deterministically, particularly for mobile channels, and; (2) the random models have both theoretical and empirical support, and are relatively easy to use. We will present some common models for cellular and satellite communication to illustrate the use of such models. We then describe some recent findings that are being studied to produce even more accurate models for use in future system design. These findings include severe fading, and statistical non-stationarity [3]. Severe fading is any type of fading that yields amplitude statistics that are worse than Rayleigh statistics: in short, the probability of a deep fade is larger than if fading were Rayleigh. Statistical non-stationarity means that the channel's statistics change over time (equivalently, over space), which, while seemingly obvious, has not been employed in channel modeling until recently [4]. We describe conditions for stationarity, and applications where non-stationarity must be modeled for sufficient accuracy. Finally, we also provide some recent results from our work with the National Institute of Standards & Technology, Boulder, Colorado, where we measured and modeled urban and indoor-outdoor channels in the public safety frequency bands, for use in future emergency responder communication systems.

Ta Pech - South Entrance
The south entrance or "South Gate" is probably the least visited of all the gates to Angkor Wat. As with the other gates, you can access Ta Pech from the interior section of Angkor Wat or from the outer wall trail. I came upon it while hiking the outer wall trail. It is in relatively good shape. There is some alter items inside, more so than I have seen at other areas around Angkor Wat. It seems the Monks perform rituals and prayer sessions here because it is away from the main tourist area at the temple.

Ta Loek - North Entrance
The north entrance of Angkor Wat is rarely visited. It can be accessed from the interior courtyard of Angor Wat or along the outer wall trail. The "North Gate" is in relatively good condition. My first time at the wall I arrived just as a thunderstorm hit. There was a Buddhist Monk performing a ceremony with three younger monks and several Khmer children and women were watching. This is a credit to how seldom this entrance is visited.
Once the rain started, the ceremony stopped and we all took shelter in the entrance building. It was interesting to see how well the water stayed out of such an old building. But in time the found its way in creating a small pond in the middle of the floor.
It is definitely worth the effort to walk out to the entrance!

Bakong II - Rolous Group
Originally surrounded by a moat, the temple is a five-tiered affair, with carvings of elephants (some still standing) on the corners of the lower three levels.
Equally impressive as the elephants are the lion statues, to be found at the base of the main stairwell leading up to the central sanctuary at the top.

Bakong - Rolous Group
Bakong is the biggest of the Rolous Group monuments, with an active Buddhist monastery on the site.
Built and dedicated to Shiva around 900 AD, Bakong served as the central temple. The sandstone central pyramid is some 60 metres square at its base, so a significant construction of its time.

Preah Ko - Rolous Group
On the other side of the highway from Lolei is Preah Ko.
It is known as the temple of the ancestors, and, although little remains of the whole enclosure, likely to have been part of the royal palace of Indravarman I. Preah Ko is believed to have been consecrated in 879 AD. It is a small temple - 6 sanctuary towers sharing the same base (front central tower being the larger).

Lolei - Rolous Group
About 15kms east of Siam Reap is the Rolous Group of monuments.
Older than Angkor (around 900 AD), Rolous was the capital of Indravarman I. Lolei is a small monument, usually the first to be visited among the Rolous as it is separated by the highway from the main group (on the left of the highway if approaching form Siam Reap).
Four brick towers, carvings and Sanskrit inscriptions, it's a perfect introduction to the temples of Angkor (I went here before going to Angkor itself) and Khmer architecture. The scale (and the fact it was deserted when I went there) allows a very close look.

Vietnamese Floating Village
A few miles outside Siam Reap is the Vietnamese Floating Village at Phnom Krom on Tonle Sap Lake (it is, in fact, the arrival point of the ferry from Phnom Penh). Lush green countryside, red dust roads all the way from Siam Reap, past a way of life that hasn't changed much for centuries. The Floating Village is also a way of life that has hardly changed in centuries.

Dry Season
The Village actually moves as the dry season encroaches. The main centre may well be found on the shores of the lake, but, over time, the village has gradually moved up river. But for a few months of the year, these new 'suburbs' move down river to join the main town on the banks of the lake (most of these homes were in the process of moving).

A Bus from Bangkok to Ankor Wat
I wrote this description of my trip to Cambodia for two reasons. One, I could. I had recently bought a smartphone with a small folding QWERTY keyboard and it comes with a document processor. And second, because I had time as I had decided to take a bus, as I will describe below.
I decided I wanted to go to Cambodia, mostly because the idea of having Thanksgiving in Thailand was not appealing, especially after last years Thanksgiving in Iraq. Also, leaving Thailand allowed me to renew my Visa without question and mine was about to expire the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Anyway, I decided on a 3 day 2 night package trip because I had no idea what to expect. The trip was taking a bus all the way from Bangkok to Angkor, Cambodia. I wanted to go there because I had read about the ancient ruins.
The bus trip was interesting. I had never been on a bus trip like this anywhere in the world so it was a new experience in many ways (and it gave me time to write this). The way to the Cambodian border from Bangkok was uneventful, from there on is a different story. At the border, we had to wait while our visas were processed. There I was warned about Cambodian children being thieves, later i found out they are also annoying beggars. "Beware of the children" became my general theme for the trip.

Baksei Chamkrong
Baksei Chamkrong is located about 250m from the south gate of Angkor Thom on the left-hand side of the road. The beginning of its construction is ascribed to Harshavarmam I, but it was probably finished by his successor Rajendravarmam II in 947 and dedicated to Shiva. Baksei Chamkrong is a relatively small monument at 42ft (13m) high on a square pyramid with a set of steps leading up 88ft (27m) on each side.
The name Baksei Chamkrong means "The Bird Who Shelters Under Its Wings" and comes from a legend. In it, the king tried to flee Angkor during a siege and then a huge bird landed and sheltered him under its wings.

Ta Prohm Kel
This rather precarious looking tower stands just over the road from Angkor Wat, just off the road that heads north into Angkor Thom. It is one of 102 chapels of the hospitals built at the behest of Jayavarmam VII.

Walking to Kbal Spean
If you are not in good shape, you might want to consider skipping this activity. We were there last March and it is a long, hot and arduous climb uphill to get there, and we are reasonably fit for our age (mid-50's). We were told to stick to the path as it lies in an area that has not been cleared of landmines.
If you do decide to go, I would suggest you take lots of water (at least 1 litre per person), hiking boots and a walking stick. You will be climbing over rocks.
Crossing the stream - if you can see the lingas in the water, you know you are fairly shallow.

Tonle Sap - further than the floating village
Most tourists don't go any further than Chong Khneas, the floating village, and that is ok. However, a trip to the Kompong Phluk village, 16 km south of Siem Reap, takes you to another world. Life here ebbs and flows with the seasons, and depends entirely upon the waters of the lake. The houses are built on stilts, within the floodplain of the Tonle Sap lake. The people are so used to life on the water that during the dry season, when their houses look awkward on their very high (6 meters) stilts, they go out onto the lake and build temporary houses there. The village is not yet spoiled by mass tourism, but does have a guesthouse, where we had a delicious lunch. People are incredibly poor and their life must be tremendously hard, but their smiles are all genuine.

desktop virtualization
Desktop virtualization, often called client virtualization, is a virtualization technology used to separate a computer desktop environment from the physical computer. Desktop virtualization is considered a type of client-server computing model because the "virtualized" desktop is stored on a centralized, or remote, server and not the physical machine being virtualized.
Desktop virtualization "virtualizes desktop computers" and these virtual desktop environments are "served" to users on the network. You interact with a virtual desktop in the same way you would use a physical desktop. Another benefit of desktop virtualization is that is lets you remotely log in to access your desktop from any location.
VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure -- or Interface) is a popular method of desktop virtualization. This type of desktop virtualization uses the server computing model, as the desktop virtualization in this scenario is enabled through hardware and software. VDI hosts the desktop environment in a virtual machine (VM) that runs on a centralized or remote server.

Felicia Landry's Aerials teammates stepped aside from training on the bars for a moment so Felicia could take a photo with a Nova Scotia flag draped on the bars. Landry finished her gymnastics career at the Atlantic Championships in Charlottetown over the weekend.

Her teammates have some fun with Felicia before they get back to training.
Dave Mathieson - Cumberland News Now
AMHERST – Felicia Landry finished her gymnastic career over the weekend and is officially retired.
AMHERST – Felicia Landry finished her gymnastic career over the weekend and is officially retired.
Landry attended the Atlantic Gymnastics Championships in Charlottetown where she won Team Nova Scotia Gold, and finished fifth overall and sixth on vault in the Open 2 Division.
"Fifth is good but I messed up. I could have done better," said Landry.
Landry's best event is usually the bars.
"I messed up on the bars, on the high bar, and I wobbled a lot on the beam as well," said the 17-year-old Grade 12 student at Amherst Regional High School.
Landry often struggles with her floor routine but says she was proud of how she performed on the floor at the Atlantics.
"I did a good back-tuck flip on the floor," she said.
She says retiring from competition is sad but hopes to continue judging at competitions.
She attends Mount Allison University in September but hopes to coach at the Aerials Gymnastics Club as much as she can.
"It will depend on my work load as university," she said.
Asked what she will miss most about competing Landry said, "I'll miss the joy it brings me, and being here with everybody."
Landry started gymnastics when she was three-years-old.
She says being a gymnast has been a great experience and hopes more people give the sport a try.
"Even though it's a tough sport I'd recommend to anybody because of the joy it brings and the way it's made my life better."

PARAMUS - A young bear spotted high in a Paramus neighborhood was tranquilized and removed Thursday, but not before taking a tumble from his perch.
Crews were trying for hours to coax the 100-pound bear down from the tree on Winters Avenue with no success.
Then after three hours, and just after 4 p.m., animal control officers shot a tranquilizer at him that got stuck in the bear's ear. They shot a second dart, which hit its mark.
MORE: Animals in the News
After trying to fight the effects of the drugs, the bear eventually fell from the tree into a net being held by firefighters below.
Animal control officer Carol Tyler says he will be OK. "He had a tag put on his ear to identify him, in case he gets himself in trouble again," she says. "He'll now receive a tattoo inside his lip, and that will identify him and we'll be able to keep track of him."
The 1-year-old bear will be relocated to a safer area in Morris or Sussex counties.

Product Description
You will never find a more chillingly suspenseful, perversely funny, or viciously satirical political thriller than The Manchurian Candidate, based on the novel by Richard Condon (author of Winter Kills). The film, withheld from distribution by star Frank Sinatra for almost a quarter century after President Kennedy's assassination, has lost none of its potency over time. Former infantryman Bennet Marco (Sinatra) is haunted by nightmares about his platoon having been captured and brainwashed in Korea. The indecipherable dreams seem to center on Sergeant Raymond Shaw (Laurence Harvey), a decorated war hero but a cold fish of a man whose own mother (Angela Lansbury, in one of the all-time great dragon-lady roles) describes him as looking like his head is "always about to come to a point." Mrs. Bates has nothing on Lansbury's character, the manipulative queen behind her second husband, Senator John Iselin (James Gregory), a notoriously McCarthyesque demagogue. Digital video disc extras include interviews with Sinatra, producer George Axelrod, and director John Frankenheimer, and audio commentary by Frankenheimer. --Jim Emerson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The only gripe I have is not with the movie but with the commentary supplied by the director, John Frankenheimer. Commentaries are often my favourite part of a DVD. Surely, in a movie of this complexity, there must be a thousand insightful and instructive stories but, for some reason, they mostly go untold. There are so many spots in the movie where you desperately want him to tell you something about the character or the actor or the difficulty in staging the shot or 'something' of interest but he says nothing of consequence or, more often, he says nothing at all. With about 20 minutes to go in the film, he finally gets into some informative details but by then it's too little, too late.
What I found most annoying was his virtual silence during the first scene between Janet Leigh and Sinatra where they trade off a long string of seemingly disconnected sentences. His only comment was that most people found this dialogue a little odd. Gee, no kidding! Taken at face value, the dialogue has ostensibly no bearing on the rest of the movie.Read more ›
One other in the platoon Cap. /Maj. Bennett Marco (Frank Sinatra) finally realizes what happed and is in a position to thwart the plot this is because he is with Army Intelligence. As with real life luck would have it that he is assisted be a quirky woman who sees his potential and dumps her old beau for the new challenge.
What is the plot and will it succeed?
Or will Marco be able to foil it?
Who is the mysterious American Control?
Who are we supposed to root for?
Watch as the story unfolds and remember they can not hear you when you say "Watch out!"
I was shocked to see Angela Lansbury, "Murder She Wrote" not being quite as nice as I remember her. A real advantage was not recognizing Laurence Harvey from anywhere and so this did not distract from his acting.
I really enjoyed watching this just as a movie and not trying to make any connections to underlying messages. But I was really surprised to find out who the American control was. And so much for the theory that you can't be forced to do anything that is not within your nature. I was surprised to the last.
With out the immediate threat of the cold war the movie still holds suspense for us. John Candy did a parody of this in the movie "Volunteers"
Generally speaking, whenever a client of mine recommends a movie, I go find it and watch it. I was told the remake in 2004 was not as good as the original one.
Surprisingly, the brainwash and mind control in this movie is shockingly believable. The powerful conditioning of one's mind and stealing of one's soul turned the character of Raymond Shaw a man driven to do things he has no idea why.
After the Korean War, Raymond came home as American war hero but unknowingly a communist robot.
Almost the entire movie is about Raymond acting on a post hypnotic suggestion (it's called "linkage" in the movie), a brainwash style, with queen of diamond card as a trigger. When this card is present, without caring "why", Raymond would act on anyone's command, so he can be potentially manipulated by anyone. He's like a gun that has been loaded waiting for the trigger to be pulled, towards anybody, including the woman he loves.
This may seem like a typical movie showing "the danger of hypnosis". But anybody who watches this movie and sees nothing but the danger of hypnosis is like saying "Money is evil." Hypnosis is just a tool that anybody can use for any purposes, like any tools. They are neutral, depending on who uses them.
But the movie is beyond that.Read more ›
