Court rules iTunes songs can't be resold
A federal court has ruled that startup ReDigi can't resell iTunes songs, as it has claimed it could. U.S. District Judge Richard Sullivan granted a partial summary judgment in favor of Universal Music Group's Capitol Records, as Universal sued ReDigi for copyright violation. Sullivan ruled that users can't resell digital media files unless given explicit permission by the copyright owner. Notably, a recently published Apple patent filing offers a solution that would let digital rights be transferred during a resale or loan, contemplating both software technology and contract rights to allow it.

Of course the voters identity should be kept secret, but why their vote? As an example, I am going to show you the actual votes for President in the 2004 election of ten of my neighbors. They have warned me that they will all sue me if I violate their "right" to vote secrecy, but I'm foolish and am going to do it anyway.
Their votes are: Bush, Kerry, Bush, Kerry, Kerry, Bush, Bush, Kerry, Kerry, Bush. Now, which one belongs to neighbor 1, neighbor 2....... neighbor 9, neighbor 10, Do you get it? The votes can't be linked to the voter because the voters name is secret, not their vote.
Consider that you and everyone else openly broadcasts sensitive personal information to everyone within visual distance. Information that is directly linked to your SSN, your address, your phone number and virtually every piece of private information about you.
Yet no one complains or even cares about it. I'm talking about the license plate on your automobile. An identifier that can be traced to you personally, but no one cares because it is an anonymous identifier that can only be accessed by authorities.
Why should you care if someone else sees your vote, if they can't tell it's you that cast it. The importance of this is that the ability to see your vote "as cast", enables you to verify that the vote you cast is the vote that got counted, something that would halt vote fraud in its tracks.
The process is sometimes called E2E for e nd-to-end verification and is virtually identical to bankings time honored receipt/statement audit system. It is also at the heart of the proposed "solution" to our problems in Pt. 3.

Why You Can't Vote Them Out
By: mac Sperry
Pt. 2: To Catch A Thief - Use A Spreadsheet!
The Mentality of a Thief
Consider the thinking of a person who rigs an election. Their foremost thought would obviously be, the accomplishment of their task with as little chance of detection as possible. The initial number of votes they would have to swing to the other side would ideally be, as few as absolutely necessary. Too many and the other side might be alerted. Thus, it is reasonable to assume that the hallmark of vote fraud would be, the close election.
In preparation for the eBook: Desiderata of the Citizen Vote, the author obtained the popular vote figures for all Presidential elections from the most recent back to 1824. The source was the archives of the U.S. governments official newspaper, The Federal Register found at: http://www.archives.gov/ federal-register/electoral-college/scores.html. U sing the spreadsheet program Excel, he then determined the difference in spread between the two front runners in each election and calculated the average. That average is 11.01%.
In the entire history of Presidential elections, only six times have the popular vote margins of the two front runners come to within 1%. They were the 1880, 1884, 1888, 1960, 1968 and 2000 elections.

Newly promoted Crystal Palace have announced the permanent signing of Arsenal striker Marouane Chamakh.
Chamakh was allowed to leave the Gunners after failing to make an impact at the Emirates, and he has signed a one-year deal with the Eagles having been awarded the number 29 shirt.
An official statement on the club website read: "Crystal Palace are delighted to confirm the signing of Morocco international striker Marouane Chamakh on a one-year deal.
"The former Arsenal forward has joined the Eagles on a permanent deal after completing a medical in SE25, and will wear the number 29 shirt."
The 29-year-old fell out of favour in north London despite having an impressive start to his Arsenal career after he joined on a free transfer from Ligue 1 side Bordeaux.
He scored 11 goals in his first season with the Gunners, but had to play second fiddle to Robin van Persie once the Dutchman returned to fitness.
He was sent on-loan to West Ham for the second half of last season, but struggled to find any sort of form and the Hammers chose not to convert the deal into a permanent signing.
Palace boss Ian Holloway is hopeful he can bring the best out of the France-born Moroccan international, claiming his style of man management tends to nurture out-of-form players back to reignite their careers.
"I normally do okay with people whose careers are faltering," said Holloway, speaking after his side's 1-0 loss against Lazio at the weekend. "I love them up and work with them, and hopefully I can get him back to how he was after he joined Arsenal.
"There was nothing wrong with him then when he scored eight in nine. But I wouldn't fancy being Robin van Persie's understudy, it can't have been fun."

Rapper JR loots the treasure chest
Please be patient while the player loads...
Rapper JR charmed his way to a million rands after winning the Tropika Island of Treasure grand prize. JR beat out fellow celebs such as Khanyi Mbau, Bonang Matheba and Loyiso Gola to bag the treasure chest.
13 April 2011
Tintin Sailor
it is so sad how our Media constantly finds it necessary to taint what is black at all times… here is a young man who did well and won R1m. the headline reads. "Rapper JR loots the treasure chest" is this a pun? perhaps, but it feeds a stereotype that blacks deserve nothing. what they get is through corruption or looting. even an innocent event like this one gets this unfortunate negative inference.
sad indeed..

Multi Hopping by sshserver proxy with different keys Sep 23 2010 03:08PM
Nicolas Ferragu (nicolas ferragu laposte fr)
Hi all,
This is my problem :
I want to do Multi Hopping through a proxy/jumper ssh-server with
ssh-agents but with different keys from caller to proxy and from proxy
to target.
The problem could be also set romanced like this : is there a way to get
different identity while I travel from Est to West ? - nothing to do
with any politic thoughts ;^)
In another words in another world :
The client :
is a putty/window station with pagent running well with the bastion
(ssh server proxy/jump ).
Let's says that Client uses USER key.
The bastion :
is a linux box with a ssh-agent running well with the target.
It accept in .ssh/authorized_keys the USER key.
Let's says that Bastion uses ROLE key.
The target :
is unix box (linux for the test) accept in .ssh/authorized_keys only
The question :
is there a way to automate the connexion from client to target with
key-exchange-agents respectively ?
That is saying that I don't want any password prompt or passphrase. Any.
FYI, I succeeded in making a connection trick but there's a big lack of
screen functions (raw connection mode).
Putty conf :
connection type : raw
local proxy command : plink.exe -t %user@%proxyhost -agent "ssh
-p %port -l role %host"\n
The main problem reside in a full openssh environment of course.
Thanks in advance for sharing your interest,

Our company acquired this for our kids new loft bedroom with a slide. Our company looked as well as appeared as well as this mattress was the greatest buy for the funds. As well as you are appearing for a twin for a bunk or loft bed def purchase this mattress it's the perfect elevation and also the listing pleasant.
Acquired two for stork create long horn bunk best mattresses accommodates wonderful. My husband occasionally sleeps with the kiddos and also he likes the beds. They came extremely well packaged, spun as well as suction closed. The UPS man was actually extremely wonderful, held all of them inside my house. Thank you UPS. Over all very happy and also certainly suggest.
I purchased both twin and queen-sized mattresses. The queen went directly on a steel bed structure, no box spring seasons, and also has a comfort amount over a couch bedroom. The twin went on a normal bed structure with carton springs, as well as that is actually very comfortable.
I purchased the queen measurements mattress and also this matches wonderfully on my queen dimension carton springs. Even though that is actually a slim mattress, it is actually really pleasant. I didn't prefer to invest the loan on a company brand-new regular queen size mattress due to the fact that the package springtimes are pretty outdated.
When this to begin with got there all rolled up in an air-tight bag within a bag within a package, we were quite doubtful. Our company possessed a memory froth mattress recently, and that was actually exceptionally cozy, however that was also the obstacle; that would certainly knock me out and also produce this very tough to wake up. Along with this bedroom, I don't believe that.
Maybe the very best mattresses 2016 portion of this mattress is actually just how it gets here. My daughter liked watching that spring to life when you removed the plastic from the wrapped type. This has been actually a week now and she says it is really relaxed as well as seems to be to become hanging out extra in her room. That recognized a new mattress was all she needed to have? It matches comfortably on her new mattress and also is the best size for all her slabs and also bed linen. No weird scents or issues – incredibly delighted along with our purchase and also may not complain about the cost in all.
I was looking for a low-cost mattress as I am actually monetarily strapped for money and also this mattress delivers just what this vows for that is actually price.
Other than this is actually certainly not an air mattress, a regular mattress along with spring seasons as well as everything. I possess a platform garden structure as well as with the mattress on this, it is perfect for me, as I am actually quite brief. It is actually thinner compared to a conventional mattress and also rests lower than a conventional mattress, but that is actually outstanding. I possessed a moderate heart attack when I acquired the incorrect mattress originally, the business contacted me as well as are actually today sending the appropriate mattress at no added charge.
LUCID Mattress types
The mattress is actually really hefty which additionally incorporated to the challenge from spinning. If you carry out certainly not spin this mattress, you will certainly obtain divots. I covertly turned the mattress (after perhaps years from certainly not revolving).
I bought this mattress as well as acquired this 3 times earlier. I am actually certainly not make use of to a mind froth mattress so I inquire any person else in the exact same posture making certain you provide the item a couple of times just before you find out if this item corrects for you.
I believe that is actually stronger compared to some from the Tempur-pedic beds I've put on at different shops, however I am actually certainly not going to call that also solid. I utilize this mattress as a time mattress as effectively as my very own bedroom so that acquires utilized as a "sofa" and also a mattress. Once again, I am actually certainly not utilize to mind froth bedrooms.
I am actually possessing challenge reviewing this to a springtime bedroom as they are actually each totally other resting take ins. The only adverse trait I may discover concerning this mattress, which possibly uses to any sort of mind froth mattress, is actually that this is actually a little bit even more tough to acquire off from (in the center from the evening), therefore that might be actually a concern for an individual that currently deals with barriers from that attributes.
For the previous 4 months, I've rested after a big, stone piece. Rest invited me like a warm and comfortable, acquainted buddy, inhaling lifestyle back right into my worn out heart. Today, I woke up as a brand-new individual, 99% specific I have actually found out the remedy for cancer cells, contamination, as well as outdated folks scent only off a solitary evening from wonderful rest after this heaven-sent Lucid 10″ Memory Foam Dual-Layered Mattress.
I was actually resting for years on a roll mattress that was actually possibly 10-15 years aged, perhaps also more mature. I though this was actually only off rest apnea or even me switching and also shaking, yet this acquired to the aspect where my sweetheart was actually likewise waking up painful, so I understood the mattress possessed to go. Searching online as well as going to b & m establishments I discovered wonderful cushions, however the costs just weren't thus wonderful (Fell in affection along with Tempurpedic as well as the Duxiana mattress).
The temporary aroma was actually worth placing up along with, in purchase to possess such a comfortable mattress, at such an economical rate. Specifically my boy, that is actually thus high that his feets absolutely no much longer suit over the paired mattress our experts were actually changing.
Our company were actually truly great regarding turning that for the initial year, however after acquiring a garden structure (a 4 signboard framework) that came to be complicated to revolve. The mattress is actually really massive which likewise included to the trouble from spinning. If you perform certainly not spin this mattress, you will definitely receive divots. I privately revolved the mattress (after perhaps years from certainly not spinning). I utilize this mattress as a time bedroom as properly as my very own mattress so this acquires utilized as a "chair" and also a bedroom.
Pros and cons of different types of mattresses
For everyone the right mattress reviews is of paramount important for a peaceful sleep. Before choosing a mattress one has to consider mattress comfort, durability and support structure. There are different types of best mattress in the market to choose from and you must consider your needs and preferences.
This kind of sleeping pad has springs that are sewn into the individual fabric pockets of the bedding.

Pocket sprung bedding is superb on the off chance that you regularly consider your side, or on the off chance that you move around a great deal in your rest. Spring mattress don't offer the same full body bolster and forming (that incorporates full spinal backing) that adaptable foam can offer. Spring sleeping cushions cause what's known as a trampoline influence which is when weight is connected to the bedding and it twists internal. When this happens it doesn't offer your body the backing that it needs.

open coil sleeping pad which is made of single springs. These springs are altered together by a wire. The ceaseless coil sleeping pad, then again, is produced using single circled wire. This write is more moderate subsequent to the coils in the sleeping cushion will destroy in a brief span.
Air mattress can be put anyplace there's sufficient floor space, permitting you to give protection and comfort. Inflatable cushions are anything but difficult to set up, even shockingly so. All it takes is a pneumatic machine and a spot to put the sleeping pad. Position the pump, turn it on and that is it. Bedding can be as straightforward or detailed as you wish. Fitted sheets, air pads, mattress pads and more are accessible particularly for pneumatic beds. An inflatable mattress can be very agreeable. It's immovability or delicate quality is controlled by the amount of air it has in it, so it's effectively customizable. One bed can be everything to everybody.

When you're not utilizing it, an inflatable cushion can be squeezed over into a space not exactly a tenth of its circulated up structure and put away on a bureau rack.
Since everybody's needs are distinctive, it's wise to take as much time as is needed and take a gander at the alternatives, development, pros and cons of different mattresses before you purchase.

Tell the EPA: Protect our Children from Fracking Pollution
The EPA has proposed the first-ever national limits on fracking pollution. But this is only a first step. There's still more work to do.
Fracking releases benzene, smog, and other harmful pollutants into the air. People — including pregnant women and unborn children — are suffering under the burden of increased air pollution as a consequence of natural gas development. The same leaks and flares that spew harmful pollutants into the local air also release the potent greenhouse gas methane.
Tell the EPA that you support strong methane pollution limits. And that this rule is just the beginning. More needs to be done to ensure we are protected from not only new sources of fracking pollution, but existing sources as well. Our communities deserve clean, healthy air — and a healthy planet for our children's future.
Add your name:
|To the EPA: "Thank you for your proposed rule to limit methane emissions from the oil and gas industry. Last year, thousands of moms and dads across the country asked you to protect us from the dangerous methane pollution that is contributing mightily to climate change -- and you have really come through for us. Your proposal to limit methane pollution is a welcome first step -- but more needs to be done. I'm hoping that as you look ahead, you will regulate not only new sources of natural gas, but existing sources as well. We must have strong standards that require limits on methane emissions from existing sources, not just new ones. Thank you for taking this important step to safeguard our communities, and our children's future."

The Chinese government is likely to allow the sale of government stakes in publicly traded state-controlled enterprises to foreign companies, a senior regulator said here today, signaling what could be the next big step in China's movement toward a market economy.
Wang Jianxi, assistant chairman for international policy, futures trading and accounting at the China Securities Regulatory Commission, also said in an interview at his office today that China would give permission to multinational corporations to sell shares in their Chinese operations to Chinese citizens.
Taken together, the two measures outlined by Mr. Wang would draw China more into the global economy and give the country's securities markets a considerably greater role in bringing Western investment and management practices to businesses.
As China's leaders prepare for the 16th Communist Party Congress early in November, when many current leaders are expected to retire, high-level expressions of interest in international investment like Mr. Wang's are also a sign that this country remains committed to a market-directed economy.Continue reading the main story
Dennis Zhu, managing director of investment banking in China for J. P. Morgan Chase, said that while there was little interest yet by multinationals in selling stock in China, the sale of government stakes in state-controlled enterprises would have ''tremendous'' effects. Although the government had given no hint until today that it was ready for such sales, foreign companies have been evaluating many state-controlled enterprises anyway, he said.
''Based on the inquiries, we've got, you will see quite wide interest,'' Mr. Zhu added.
While some of China's largest state-controlled enterprises are traded on stock exchanges in New York and Hong Kong, where foreigners can buy shares, more than 1,000 are traded only on the A-share stock markets in Shanghai and Shenzhen, in which foreigners are not allowed to invest. These include large companies like Baoshan Iron and Steel, Xugong Science and Technology and Shanghai Automotive.
The total value of the shares in these businesses is about $450 billion. A third of the shares, or $150 billion worth, is held by Chinese citizens and can be traded. The government holds the remaining two-thirds, worth some $300 billion, which are designated ''nontradable.''
The Beijing authorities -- faced with a large budget deficit, a shaky banking system and a public pension system with virtually no reserves -- have been looking for a way to sell some of the government-owned shares to raise money.
But the domestic stock markets have fallen steeply in the last year, giving up huge previous gains that may have been created in part by speculators' market manipulation. So, regulators reluctantly promised early this summer not to sell any more government-owned shares on the exchanges for fear of driving stock prices down even further.
Mr. Wang said today that the government was ''likely'' to allow the sale of such stakes instead to the Chinese subsidiaries and to joint ventures of international companies.
China's State Council -- effectively the nation's cabinet and the highest level of the government, though subject to being superseded by the Communist Party leadership -- now bans foreign companies and individuals from owning stakes in Chinese companies traded on the A-share markets. The authorities are still reviewing whether to lift the ban but are likely to do so, Mr. Wang said.
''We should allow the foreign-funded companies here to acquire nontradable, state-owned shares,'' he said.
The securities commission fills the roles here that the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission together serve in the United States. Within the Chinese bureaucracy, the commission has tended to support greater foreign investment in China. But officials in this country are usually wary of predicting that something is likely to happen unless the idea has already attracted broad official support.
China is expected to sell only minority stakes in the publicly traded state-controlled enterprises to foreigners, and would most likely require that the stakes be held for long periods as strategic investments, although the rules for any such sales have not yet been drafted.
It already allows foreign companies to buy stakes in state-owned enterprises that are not publicly traded, or that are traded on the very small B-share markets, which are open to foreign investors. But many state-owned enterprises that are not listed on exchanges have not issued shares because they are either small or, in many cases, virtually bankrupt -- making them unattractive to investors.
A few are in good shape, however, and Shenzhen's municipal government coincidentally announced on Wednesday that it would sell stakes in five local nontraded companies by tender to international investors.
While there are some struggling state-controlled enterprises on the Shanghai and Shenzhen exchanges, the exchanges also list many of the country's healthiest enterprises. With China's economy growing at 7 percent a year, these businesses, often with nationally known brand names and excellent distribution networks, have drawn hungry looks from executives of multinational corporations.
Investment bankers and economists said that the toughest part of selling nontradable shares could lie in deciding how much to charge for them. The A shares in Chinese companies typically sell at a steep multiple to corporate earnings, in part because of the scarcity created by the government's ownership of two-thirds of the shares. Foreign investors may balk at paying such a premium, but if they are offered a discount, then the Chinese investors might object.
Selling nontradable shares to foreign investors could also depress China's domestic markets, though not as much as a direct sale of extra shares on those markets. Western experts say that some foreign businesses have managed to buy a small number of A shares by supplying the money to individual Chinese or companies who then buy the shares. This source of investment, while apparently modest, could dry up if foreign enterprises are allowed to acquire shares directly from the government.
Mr. Zhu said that the government might also be reluctant to sell shares in companies in strategic sectors, like energy, even if these companies were especially attractive to foreign investors.
The Chinese officials' willingness to let multinational companies sell stock here also shows a philosophical change by financial regulators, even if the multinationals are not actually lining up to do so. Until the last year or two, regulators here mostly thought that domestic savings should be invested in domestic enterprises.
Mr. Wang said that multinationals should be interested in selling stock in China in their Chinese operations because this would allow them to raise money in the local currency, the renminbi, instead of exposing themselves to the exchange-rate risks inherent in financing domestic operations with fully tradable foreign currencies.
He added that a consumer goods multinational with a listing here would also receive widespread media coverage that would serve as free advertising, saying he hoped that the first foreign company would list on a Chinese market by the end of the year.
But Pauline Dan, director of I.G. Investment Management (Hong Kong), a large fund management business, said that foreign companies would be wary of going to the trouble and the risk of listing in China.
''They do not want to expose to competitors their operations and the profit margins they're earning in China,'' she said.Continue reading the main story

Yesterday, I counted a side-scrolling racer called Old School Racer 2 as one of the best games of May. That game started out pretty challenging, its beginning courses requiring lots of tries to navigate successfully. If you've played the Trials series, you know how tough (and fun) that sort of racer can be.
Today we check out a slightly easier 2D racer/driving game, this one from Owlchemy Labs. Snuggle Truck is a silly game in which players must deliver a load of stuffed animals to the zoo without dropping too many animals along the way. With great graphics, a sense of humor, and a robust level editor, this one is a pleasure to play. Check out our hands-on video after the break!

New Baptist Health Website Off to a Healthy Start
Baptist Medical Center in Little Rock, Arkansas, Arkansas's number onehospital, is again ahead of the curve. The hospital's newest website,MyBaptistHealth.com (http://www.mybaptisthealth.com/default.asp), launched inJanuary of 2007, provides Arkansans with an online resource for healthinformation and services. Initial reports imply the site is an early success.
The proof lies in the site's reported metrics. Inquiries and emailsign-ups through the microsite have skyrocketed. Inquiries exploded ten-foldto an average of over 300 per month -- a 1,000 percent increase. In addition,Baptist Health's email database has grown 35% in six months.
"Baptist Health saw a need for an online health information resource forthe state of Arkansas," said Russell D. Harrington, Jr., President and CEO ofBAPTIST HEALTH. "Mybaptisthealth.com provides Arkansans with a trusted sourcefor accessing locally relevant and timely health and prevention informationthat caters to their specific needs."
Site Content
*Research shows that consumers are becoming more engaged with everythinghaving to do with online health information. Online health resources includesites such as WebMD, which provides health information on a global scale.
MyBaptistHealth.com is different. The site delves into localized healthtopics, details and facts that aid site visitors in choosing a healthystandard of living and in finding local medical services -- something globalonline health information providers simply can't offer.
"It's literally Arkansans' personal online guide to healthy living,"Harrington said. "MyBaptistHealth.com(http://www.mybaptisthealth.com/default.asp) provides information in acomforting, more inviting tone that is less clinical. It's simply morepersonal and accessible than the larger online health sites."
Visitors can sign up for the Healthy-Living E-newsletter to stay updatedon the site's developing content and to stay updated about important healthnews of importance to them. Site visitors can choose from a variety ofspecific newsletter subjects including Woman to Woman, Men's Health, 55PlusNews or Healthy Living, which contains general health topics.

A must-have item for all backcountry snowboarding trips. Align the bottom edge of the meter with the slope and you'll be able to accurately see its angle. Color coded with yellow, orange, and red zones, the slope meter helps let you know when avalanche potential is high.
Slope Meter has been designed for measuring a great range of slope angles.
Slope Meter
0-50 degree angle.
Steel ball in liquid-filled tube.
Marked at every degree.
Stabilizes quickly for fast reading.
Weight: 1 ounce
|Angle Range:
|0 - 60 degrees
|4" x 2"
|1 oz.
Basically I received a slope meter that had tiny cracks in 2 different spots of the plastic tube. It was very hard to see but renders the slope meter useless as the ball bearing inside gets stuck. This was not broken during shipment as the broken product was inside an un-opened and sealed (well actually stapled) plastic and the plastic itself had zero sign of shock or tear on it. So BCA basically packaged a broken product and I ended-up being the sucker receiving it.
I spoke to backcountry.com about it. Since I was now overseas and not in the USA anymore (where it was originally shipped) then they would not pay for my sending back of the defective one nor the shipping of the new one (but they would credit me for the defective product once they receive it). This is an unfortunate & unusual situation but it just gets to me that because BCA manufactured some defective item I end-up having to pay 2x for international shipping... Sadly the original guy I spoke to at BC.com told me that the shipping back & forth would be paid for since it was a defective item, but after checking the fact I was overseas i turns out it was not true.
So, defective item from BCA + mis-communication with backcountry.com = that freakin blows golf balls.
The last backcountry.com guy I spoke to told me that if I had ordered from overseas directly the 1st time around then they would have paid for the shipping back and forth from Japan in my case for the defective product. But.... when I check on the website this is not what it says. This is only valid for within the US.
So.................if you order from overseas and you want to return a broken item, bring your wallet and get ready to get stuffed like a turkey. Surely something should be done about this.
This is the 1st time in many years of using this site that I come across such a problem. Very disapointed.
Saw these on a shelf at a bricks & mortar store... several of them were broken. The design is really silly as nothing protects the tube that holds the ball bearing. What a waste of manufacturing materials & energy. Even if you get one that's not broken, it's only a matter of time, unless you buy an Otterbox or Pelican type case for it (which would add protection at the expense of fidgetiness & bulk).

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Politics' started by Rolfe, Jan 7, 2015.
Picked this off of Drudge. I think that this photo will return to haunt Boehner.
Two Peas in a pod!!!!
The anti-thesis of brilliance!!!!
The GOP gave themselves over to obstructionism and in-fighting. They had opportunity to stymie some of the Democrat-launched projects by tightening the purse strings. They could have passed a short term continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government only through January, allowing the GOP-controlled House and Senate to be firmly installed. Instead, the Republicans caved to Democrat pressure and presented a CR that covered all of fiscal year 2015. Fully funding FY2015 means that the new GOP House and Senate can do nothing to reverse funding to Democrat projects until the end of the FY, which I believe is October.
And now, the GOP leadership, which has been questionable at best, has been re-elected by the House. The Good-ole-boy network continues to reign supreme in the GOP, as noted by the fact that those who opposed Boehner, seemingly acting in the best interest of the nation, are now being removed from committee positions as punishment for standing against the Speaker. It's petty politics at best, and every day it proves more and more jsut how out of touch Washington DC is with America as a whole.
Not really!
Excellent analysis, as usual.
I would add that they funded Homeland Security's immigration department only through February 6th(?), because they wanted to delay Obama's implementation of his illegal immigrant amnesty program by not funding it. However, I predict they will cave on this as well and somehow try to spin it as a victory.
NEW YORK – Since the passage of Obamacare, House Speaker John Boehner has been dogged by critics pointing out his investment portfolio has benefited from owning insurance and medical company stocks that have profited from the legislation.
An analysis of Boehner's current investment holdings includes a number of stocks benefiting from Obamacare in a total portfolio estimated at between $3.5 and $5 million in current market value.

I have never watched Seinfeld so I have no idea what this is about.
They said it was tasteful–TASTEFUL!!!
I guess there was no photo shoot in The Bris.
Makes me hungry for the big salad…
Where is "The Kramer"?
Seinfeld is relevant in all facets of life. I say it all the time…when I'm busy watching reruns of it.
That episode was actually just on TBS late last week – I think Thursday or Friday. I call it the "sexy George." LOL!
Not for me. Never found that show even remotely funny.
This made my day. I'm watching "The Puffy Shirt" episode right now.

Seinfeld is relevant to everything. And everything comes back to Seinfeld.
That is awesome!

Apple sells more PCs than any other competitor, HP second
Posted on 3-Aug-2012 07:55
Filed under:
Canalys reported today that global client PC shipments rose 12% year on year in Q2 2012. Growth in pads more than compensated for disappointing sales of Ultrabooks. The new iPad had the biggest single impact on growth rates in the quarter, but Asus and Samsung made progress with their Transformer and Galaxy Tab product lines. Total pad shipments increased 75% to 24 million units, representing 22% of all PCs.
Reports that poor economic conditions and the wait for Windows 8 hurt the PC industry this quarter do not tell the whole story, said Tom Evans, Canalys Research Analyst. The PC industry is performing well and 2012 is shaping up to be a record year. Vendors with innovative products will reap the rewards.
Apple retook the overall lead with an estimated 19% share of global PC shipments, helped by strong iPad sales. There is now a large base of replacement buyers that simply must have the latest Apple product, and the decision to continue shipping the iPad 2 at lower price points has opened up new customers, for example in education, Evans added. One drawback of the stand-out retina display in the new iPad, however, is the increased storage demanded by HD content. An upgrade, without a big price increase, is a must for the next generation of product.
Samsung was the leading Android pad vendor in Q2, more than doubling its Galaxy Tab shipments compared to a year ago. It remains Apples chief challenger in pads, but Asus made the biggest gains this quarter, particularly in the US, following the launch of the TF300 at a sub-$400 price point. It is now the third largest pad vendor globally.
Canalys Research Analyst Pin Chen Tang said, Joining forces with Google to produce the sub-$200 Google Nexus 7 will further strengthen the role of Asus in this market. Amazon must now launch a more powerful replacement for the Kindle Fire, and expand internationally, or see its pad business fail. Canalys estimates that shipments of the Kindle Fire were below 500,000 in Q2, down significantly compared to previous quarters.
In contrast to pads, Windows PC shipments continued to disappoint. Ultrabooks have not hit the price points that could excite large numbers of buyers and the share of the overall market taken by Windows fell to a new low of 73%. Intels share also hit an all-time low, falling below 70%. But against this dark background there were some bright points. Lenovo continued to gain share, thanks to a strong home market, a focus on emerging markets and increased attention to the consumer category overall. Acer improved too, compared to a terrible Q2 a year ago. While results in its former strongholds of Italy and Spain remained poor, it made good progress in the more buoyant markets of Russia, Germany and the UK. Furthermore, improved brand awareness through its Olympics sponsorship should translate into increased sales in the second half of the year.
HP was the second largest PC vendor in Q2 with 12% share. The sensible cost-saving decision to merge its PC and printing divisions impacted its first half, but a Canalys survey of channel partners revealed that a large majority think this will have a positive (or neutral) effect on their future business. After spending time focusing on internal issues, and with the new PPS organization largely in place, a period of stability will enable HP to rebuild momentum.
Perhaps the biggest talking point of the quarter was Microsofts decision to launch its own pads the Surface and Surface Pro. The information available to date suggests the prices of both will be too high to capture significant market share, and a direct sales approach will prove inadequate. We expect the Surface pads to have a similar impact on the PC industry as the Zune did in portable music players, commented Canalys Analyst Tim Coulling.
Chris Jones, Canalys VP and Principal Analyst, added, Microsoft has upset some partners by bringing its own hardware to market. Marketing, distributing and servicing such hardware profitably is hard. Once the Surface makes a material dent in Microsofts P&L, it will need to repair relationships with PC vendors, who are already preparing lists of demands.
The Windows 8 launch budget guarantees attention during Q4, but users will only benefit fully from the new OS if they buy PCs with touch screens, which will significantly increase the purchase price. Canalys does not expect the launch of Windows 8 to arrest Microsofts market share decline until Q3 2013 at the earliest.

Google stopped support for Java in Chrome. Will this cause changes in which coding skills developers will need in the coming years?
Which coding skills do you believe will become the most useful?
Google stopped support for Java Applets. It was a very old technology and now we have better (faster) alternatives i.e. HTML 5. The most useful skills, according to me, is learning to learn. If your programming foundations are strong, you can learn any new technology / framework.
Technology today is changing very fast. So any programmer cannot learn one language and keep working on that. We should constantly adapt the new technologies.
If you want to learn to code, then you should start with
- C- C++- JavaScript- HTML- CSS
Learning these languages will help you build web, mobile apps and will also help learn few advanced programming languages (like C#, Java, Ruby, Python etc.)
Hope this helps.

text: Linux+: Operating System Intro 05 – OS Interfaces Looking at other Operating Systems, such as Windows, you know what the user interface looks like. When you see a Windows system, you can instinctively say it is Windows. Every Windows system has the same basic commands or applications such as notepad, calculator, sound recorder and others. Linux has the same basic commands as well which were carried over from UNIX. Linux also has a shell. A shell is an interface between the user and the kernel. There are two types of shells: Command-line Graphical User Interface (GUI) Command-line shells have no graphical figures and may use a mouse and it is strictly a text interface. The command-line shell relies strictly for the keyboard for user input. A command is typed, followed by necessary parameters for the kernel to perform the necessary function. Each shell has been written for different abilities and the interface. The C Shell (csh) uses commands similar in nature to the C programming language. When you choose a shell, it is important to choose a shell which has commands based on a command language you know. Some shells have their own command language which is not similar to a programming language. With no basis in a specific language, there can be a larger learning curve to know all the commands and parameters required. One popular command-line shells is the GNU Born Again Shell (bash) as shown in Figure 1. FIGURE 1 Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) provide icons and such for use with the mouse to navigate through the shell. A GUI is the typical shell used by users for accessing the kernel and performing functions and starting processes. NOTE: For more information about processes see OS Intro 04 - LINUX Kernel. For GUI based systems, there is the X Window system which is a Display Server. X Windows is an open source platform dependent graphics protocol to supply a GUI. X Windows is maintained by x.org. NOTE: The version of X Windows for Linux is XFree86. X Window, or XFree86, is sometimes called X11, X or X-Windows. X Windows provide the interface for mouse and keyboard use, drawing windows and moving those windows. X Windows is configurable and can allow various GUIs to be made and distributed for Linux. Some of the interfaces are as follows: K Desktop Environment (KDE) (FIGURE 2) GNU Network Object Model Environment (GNOME) (FIGURE 3) Cinnamon (FIGURE 4) Enlightenment (FIGURE 5) Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment (LXDE) (FIGURE 6) FIGURE 2 FIGURE 3 FIGURE 4 FIGURE 5 FIGURE 6 Just as the command-line shells, the GUI shells each provide different functions. Many functions are similar, but each shell has its own additions. NOTE: Be aware that other Display Servers exist. The MIR and Wayland are two very popular Display Servers. Using a GUI interface adds another layer to the interaction between the User and kernel. The interfacing of the shell and XFree86 are as follows: User Shell (KDE, GNOME, etc.) Display Server (XFree86, MIR, Wayland, etc.) Kernel Hardware The User interacts with the installed shell, such as GNOME. When an item is moved or clicked the action is transmitted to XFree86. XFree86 manages the display, and if needed, sends the action to the Kernel. For instance, if an application icon is clicked to start, the Shell will communicate this to XFree86 which interprets it to start the application. The request to start the program is sent to the Kernel where the application is read from the Hard Disk Drive (HDD). The program is read from the HDD and sent to the Central Processing Unit (CPU) where it is executed and loaded into Random Access Memory (RAM). The Kernel manages the process and its threads. Information is sent from the kernel to XFree86 that a new window is to be opened and what should be displayed in it. This information is sent back to the Shell where the window is created and filled in with necessary information allowing the user to interact with the opened application. As the user interacts with an application by entering information or clicking on objects within the window, information is transmitted back and forth from the User to the Hardware.

Suddenly, it's a whole new world and every expense is up for examination. So repeat this mantra after me: "Dollars spent should generate revenue." If you follow this mantra, your marketing priorities will arrange themselves.
Here's another simple idea: When considering a number of different actions to take, put dollar signs next to each action based on whether it will generate a lot of revenue, a little revenue, or somewhere in between. Take the actions that generate the most dollars and leave the low-dollar actions for another day.
I'll give you two examples of where these guidelines played out recently in my own practice.
A former client asked me to edit conference track descriptions for an upcoming event. I took one look at the descriptions and saw that they were completely fine as is. There was no need to belabor rewriting copy that only interested prospective attendees would be looking at anyway. So I just told her to save her money, and parlay the extra funds into creating a high-impact e-mail that brings in more conference registrations.
Another client of mine was considering a monthly subscription program to bring in steadier revenues but had doubts as to whether it would work. They felt they might get three new subscribers at most from one e-mail blast.
I thought otherwise; I thought we had a great opportunity to gain loyal subscribers and a consistent revenue stream. So I funneled my best creative into an e-mail, using a template of a successful e-mail approach a colleague shared with me. And instead of getting three new subscribers, they got 300.
That's 300 new subscribers at $10 a month, or $36,000 in new revenue a year, from one test e-mail. Now we know this particular monthly subscriber approach works and will be scaling this effort up further.
E-mail is a marketer's best friend when budgets get tight. You can use this time, when you might have to shelve bigger campaigns, to test all the low-hanging fruit. Brainstorm every kind of testing scenario you can think of, then use the dollar-sign approach to prioritize them.
I'm confident you will see brand-new revenue from a bunch of unexpected places — and your boss will no doubt be thrilled at your resourcefulness.
What low-dollar techniques are you using to increase your revenue in these tough economic times? Share your tips with Karen.

Title PAPE - Participation of autistic people in EU
Project Number 142667-LLP-1-2008-1-DE-LEONARDO-LMP
Product Autism EPAT (Autism Europass Access Tool)
Title Autism EPAT (Autism Europass Access Tool)
Product Type others
Marketing Text The "Autism EPAT (Autism Europass Access Tool)" is a Freesoftware with handbook which offers for non or hardly speaking people with autism the opportunity to show formal qualification, soft and key skills. Download www.project-pape.eu
1. The Autism EPAT is designed to be used with and for people on the autistic spectrum, particularly who have limited communication skills.
2. The overall purpose of compiling the AutismEPAT is to empower and give voice to people who are often not heard, to assist in full inclusion in all aspects of life.
3. The Autism EPAT is list of conversation topics which lead to a greater knowledge of the person.
4. It is a dynamic and flexible tool that can be used by a range of ages, particularly focused on those who will be experiencing transitions.
5. It can be adapted to individuals e.g. add pictures or symbols according to what the person usually uses.
6. The Autism EPAT is administered in the way that the person is used to communicating.
7. No one has to complete the entire AutismEPAT document.
8. The motivation to complete the Autism EPAT depends on the will of both individuals and support workers, with an onus on encouraging both groups of people to see the benefits. The overall benefit is to focus on giving people quality of life rather than services.
9. The Autism EPAT should be completed in the context of a relationship. It is designed to record and challenge views of people with a focus on greater insight and understanding of individuals.
10. It is OK not to know something about someone. It is also OK to disagree with the person's view of themselves. Disagreements and disparities can be positively used to further understanding of individuals.
11. The first answer of the person completing the Autism EPAT will be noted, in order to commence the discussion and negotiation, prior to completion of the final certificate.
12. The final document will be a positive portrayal that is as much as possible the views of the persons themselves.
13. The Autism EPAT will need continuous updating – it is a living document, which is not an end in itself. The process involved in the completing of the Autism EPAT is at least as important as the completed document.
Target group People with early childhood autism, non or hardly speaking

Sell on a level breakthrough of 1.2351 with 1.2123 target. Stop loss = 1.2420.
Reason for the trading strategy
The rise in prices for WTI crude oil of up to 51.6 dollars per barrel allowed the Loonie to seize the initiative from its US counterpart. Today, at the time of the publication of data on the US and Canada's labor markets, a rise in volatility of the USD/CAD pair is likely.

Franklin — Residents may be sorely disappointed with the county's progress on reconstruction of South North Cape Road this winter.
Milwaukee County Supervisor and former alderman Steve Taylor announced that reconstruction of the road won't begin until next year during a common council meeting Aug. 5.
The city had expected one-third of the road, stretching from West Speedway to West Scherrei Drive, to be completely rebuilt by the end of the year. Reconstruction of the remaining portion of the road was slated for 2015.
Residents and city officials agreed that the county-owned South North Cape Road has been in desperate need of repair for many years; but when it came to proposed designs for the remodel, city officials faced many objections.
Multiple residents protested in January that the installation of sidewalk — a requirement to receive state funding for the project — would result in significant tree removal.
After several negotiations with the county, the Common Council approved a new design that would forgo sidewalks to save the trees. The county agreed to pay approximately $2.25 million for the total South North Cape project if the city agreed to cover the cost of maintaining the county road once reconstruction was complete. The Common Council agreed to spend $50,000 to save some of the trees along the first one-third of the road.
Rather than have the one-third of South North Cape Road completed this year, the county now aims to complete the entire road in two phases in 2015.
The delay is due to certain utility work required to begin reconstruction, Taylor said.
"And the reason is simple: the prior common council took way too long to decide," he said. "Former Mayor Tom Taylor and I said that we needed to make a decision, and now it's going to cost us. Now, those residents will have a horrendous road this winter because of it."
The necessary utility work along the road will be completed during the winter, but as for any reconstruction this year, "nothing's going to be done," Taylor said after the meeting.
Another road on the horizon
At the same common council meeting, aldermen discussed a new county road reconstruction project — St. Martins Road, which crosses South North Cape.
The county contacted Franklin in May in regard to rehabilitation of St. Martins, from Highway 100 — or South Lovers Lane Road — to South North Cape.
Conditions for the reconstruction of St. Martins are similar to that of South North Cape: a rural road without sidewalks that needs repair.
The council discussed methods of gaining residential feedback regarding a path or sidewalk along the road in addition to the extension of a water main.
If a survey is conducted, "I can guarantee you we're going to have the same results that we had with North Cape Road," said Alderman Mark Dandrea. "(Residents) are not going to be interested in a path because nobody wants it in their backyard."
But before the city begins to survey residents, officials first want to know what the county expects the cost to be.
"(The county) needs to know what we require of them," said Ron Romeis, assistant city engineer. "The belief is that (state funding) will not be required based on the type of rehabilitation we want."
What the city wants is to replace the current road — no sidewalks, no paths, no water main, Mayor Steve Olson said.
"If (the county) says no muss, no fuss — we're in good shape," he said.
"The best situation is that the county reconstruct the road now, and we can worry about the sidewalks and water main at another time," Olson said after the meeting. "We first need to properly inform our residents about what the county wants."
The council unanimously agreed to table the item related to surveying residents until the city received a response from the county.
