Quality Inn Rome200 Erie Blvd W
Rome, NY, United States
"The Quality Inn there is horrible!!!We blocked rooms there and were told we would get a shuttle. 2 weeks before our wedding we called to ask what time we get the shuttle until and they told us we did not get a shuttle. While trying to work with them, the one manager who claims to own all of the Quality Inns (which is not true) was very rude, and we pulled all of our block, and the actually charged one of my guests, because she did not stay there but her room was cancelled, and they wont give her a refund. BE VERY AWARE!!!Stay Away."

"We wanted a BBQ for our rehersal dinner,so we looked at Delta Lake State park and it was perfect. We brought in all of our items needed and just used a pavilion that was there. It was great, we set up horseshoes and other games for people there to do. I could not have thought of a better place to have our party. The people there were very helpful and alot of fun to talk to about the area.Highly recommended!!!"

Three Companies That Sound Dull But Make Cool Mobile TechKevin Fitchard
In wireless lurks a world of component suppliers and device makers that don't get much attention. They don't design the latest smartphone or build multibillion-dollar networks that feed those devices' high-bandwidth connections. Many of these vendors make products that may be embedded in the guts of devices or lingering on the fringes of mobile networks. Nonetheless, they are working on some very impressive technologies.
Recently, I conversed with executives at three such companies, each of which happens to be based in the U.K. It goes to show that while Silicon Valley may be the center of attention in the smartphone and mobile-data revolution, the small companies that are innovating the nuts and bolts of wireless infrastructure and gadgets still hail from the mobile heartland: Europe.
Many industry old-timers will remember Psion from the early days of the smartphone. The London-based gadget maker helped pioneer the personal digital assistant and the netbook back in the 1980s and '90s. Its most lasting legacy was Project Protea, which produced the Symbian operating system.
Nokia eventually took over the Symbian OS and sold millions upon millions of smartphones before it decided amid controversy to embrace the Windows Phone instead. Now Psion is making ruggedized wireless computing devices for industrial use. This may not sound exciting, but Psion has a unique twist.
The company has designed its hardware to be modular and open-source, inviting buyers to custom-build their own devices and design their own components. For instance, one of Psion's customers in sports medicine has created a temperature-gauge reader that can scan a digital thermometer embedded in a football helmet, Psion mobile business development director Gregg Anderson told me at CTIA Wireless. If the player becomes overheated, the scanner sends out an instant warning, alerting coaches and team doctors that the player needs to be taken out of the game.
Psion claims customers can build custom devices the way they would Lego sets. Many components—keyboards, displays, sensor arrays—can be swapped out in the field with a screwdriver. Psion has made almost every aspect of its devices modular to those inclined to do a little tinkering, including the CPU and wireless radio boards. What's more, partners can design, build, license and sell their own components through Psion's developer program. According to Anderson, 12,000 developers in its IngenuityWorking program have used the platform to create everything from custom bar code scanners to highly specialized scientific instruments.
Active antennas are starting to make their way into mobile networks, promising better coverage, big boosts in capacity, and the ability to support multiple bands—all in compact form. But on the tower side, the capacity benefits of these new antenna systems are being strangled by limitations in a component further down the radio frequency chain: the filter.
In the already unglamorous world of wireless network infrastructure, you can't get more drab than to make the filter, a component responsible for cleaning up radio frequencies and separating uplink from downlink transmissions. Mesaplexx, however, is giving the tired old air wave RF scrubber a facelift. It has devoted a bunch of engineers and advanced mathematicians to develop a three-dimensional filter, the XCube, with which any active antenna would be proud to be paired, says Mark Bole, chief executive officer of the Reading (U.K.)–based startup.
"You make the typical filter by carving out some holes in a chunk of metal," Bole says. "The RF is manipulated in a 2D environment. We're working in 3D."
That sounds a bit like Nigel Tufnel's amp going up to 11 in This is Spinal Tap, but Bole assures us that the extra spatial dimension provides real benefits. The filter is much more efficient in preserving the power the tower pumps out, whereas most filters turn many of those watts into heat. A loss of power means a loss of capacity, and excess heat can damage the delicate electronic components in the antenna itself. Active antennas promise boosts in LTE network capacity of up to 65 percent, Bole says, and advanced filter technologies such as Mesaplexx's will allow those systems to reach their potential.
If filters are the most boring hardware component, the power amplifier has to be a close second. The amp does exactly what its name implies: It boosts the power of the wireless signal so it can bridge the gap between the device and tower or vice-versa.
If you've been reading our LTE device coverage, though, you know that battery life in LTE smartphones sucks. A big reason 4G drains power is the technology's enormous complexity. The LTE air interface has what is known as a high peak-to-average ratio, which means the LTE waveform is replete with tall spikes and low dips in power level. Meanwhile 2G and 3G waveforms tend to be a lot less hilly.
Think of LTE as classical music and 2G or 3G as heavy metal, says Jeremy Hendy, vice president of sales and marketing at Nujira, a Cambridge, U.K., maker of power-modulation chips. Classical music has long moments of quiet punctuated with wild crescendos, while heavy metal music is fairly uniform in loudness. Heavy metal will sound just as good (or bad) on any old amplifier, but to truly appreciate classical music you need a high-powered amp to capture the music's nuance and delicacy, Hendy says.
"You need a high-powered amp for LTE. Otherwise the signal is distorted," Hendy says. "That's why the power on an LTE is so bad. For every 4 watts you put in, you only get 1 watt out."
The red represents the power produced by the amplifier. With Nujira's technology, the power produced closely tracks the power required by the waveform.
The amp constantly pumps out enough power to fuel those extreme peaks, but most of the time the device actually needs far less wattage. That means a lot of energy just goes to waste. Nujira has created a power-modulation chip that wraps up the waveform in a "latex bondage suit" of sorts, Hendy says. The power the amplifier puts out closely follows the power contours of the waveform, creating an extremely energy-efficient transmission.
How efficient? Hendy says the technology can increase the battery life of an LTE device by 25 percent—no small feat, considering the increasing power challenges device makers face.

New York Comptroller Hires Obama Fundraiser's Firm to Manage Pension Cash
New York state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli hired an investment firm co-founded by Penny Pritzker, a top fundraiser for President Barack Obama, to find money managers owned by women and minorities who'll invest $300 million of state pension cash.
DiNapoli, a Democrat, chose Artemis Real Estate Partners to handle the $146.9 billion New York State Common Retirement Fund's first investment in "emerging managers" for real estate, the comptroller said yesterday in a statement. Pritzker, a Chicago billionaire, helped raise a record $745 million for Obama's 2008 campaign.
"With the emerging-manager program now in place across our asset classes, the fund has affirmed its status as an innovator in the field and shown once again its commitment to enhancing diversity and opportunity while improving its bottom line," DiNapoli, 57, said.
The comptroller is the sole trustee of the pension fund, the third-largest in the U.S. Last year, DiNapoli allocated $200 million to the Rock Creek Group, a hedge fund of funds run by Afsaneh Mashayekhi Beschloss, a former World Bank chief investment officer who is married to presidential historian Michael Beschloss.
Pritzker's political connections and reputation as a prodigious fundraiser had nothing to do with her firm's selection, said Eric Sumberg, a DiNapoli spokesman. State pension officials received proposals from 25 applicants and interviewed more than 10, he said.
'Competitive Process'
"It was a very competitive process," Sumberg said by telephone. He declined to disclose how much Artemis will be paid.
Pritzker, who is also chairman, president and chief executive officer of Pritzker Realty Group LLC in Chicago, didn't immediately respond to a voice mail left with an assistant.
Following a pay-to-play scandal involving New York's former comptroller Alan Hevesi, DiNapoli in 2009 prohibited the state pension from doing business with any investment adviser who has made a political contribution to the holder of or a candidate for his office. Hevesi admitted getting almost $1 million in payments and favors for himself and his friends from investment firms in return for hiring them to manage pension assets.
Administration Adviser
Pritzker serves on Obama's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, which advises his administration on economic growth and employment. She is also chairman of TransUnion Corp. in Chicago, a director of Hyatt Hotels Corp. (H) and is a trustee of Stanford University and the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts in the nation's capital.
Artemis, based in the Washington suburb of Chevy Chase, Maryland, "seeks to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns to investors and manage institutional third-party capital in a variety of real estate strategies, with its co-founders and principals investing significantly alongside its investors," according to the firm's website.
The company's co-founder and CEO is Deborah Harmon, the former president and chief investment officer of the J.E. Robert Cos., a real-estate investment firm. The firm's founders have made more than $25 billion in real estate investments during their careers, according to DiNapoli.
"We are excited to execute this strategic mandate to create joint-venture partnerships with established and newly formed emerging managers," Harmon said in the statement from DiNapoli's office.
The state pension fund currently invests about $6 billion with emerging managers. The goal of the program is to invest assets with smaller, newer firms with a focus on women and minority-owned enterprises, according to the statement.

Recap | Box Score | Notes | USATSI Gallery
Loyola Marymount at Pitt, Petersen Events Center, December 6, 2013
Pitt 85, Loyola Marymount 68
Quoting Pitt Head Coach Jamie Dixon
On the game:
"We took care of the ball and shared it all the way through, 23 assists is an exciting number and the high shooting percentage, 58%, says a lot of things. We did what we wanted to do offensively and the defense got better as the game went on. No question about it the rebounding was something we stressed throughout and we didn't get it done at the end of the day. For the most part, we did get to all of our goals but give them credit, they kept battling and that's a tough team. They have a tough senior guard (Anthony Ireland) who kept going and some tough young kids in (Ben) Dickinson, (Gabe) Levin and (Evan) Payne; those are three good young players so give them credit."
Quoting Pitt guard James Robinson
On Pitt's five players reaching double figures in points:
"We're a really unselfish team. Everybody is capable of creating their own shot. We look for each other, and I think that really showed tonight. All we care about is winning. That's what we go for."
On being guarded by LMU's star guard Anthony Ireland:
"In the scouting report, we knew he would pressure the ball. I just tried to use my size and protect the ball. My teammates were getting open, and I was able to find them."
Quoting Pitt guard Cameron Wright
On defending Anthony Ireland:
"He shot 7-for-17. He's a great player, but I feel that we did a great job defensively on him."
On playing tough defense:
"That's still what our coaches preach. We talk about defense first. Our defense is our No. 1 priority."
On getting to the basket frequently in the second half:
"We have good guards and good bigs who can handle the ball. We're all able to create for ourselves. But give that team credit. They played extremely hard tonight, so I wouldn't say it was an easy game."
On coming off screens and making jump shots:
"That's in our motion. Coach likes me running the baseline, and James looks at me from the top of the key. Our big guys do a great job of setting screens to get me open."
Quoting Pitt forward Durand Johnson
On why the game was close in the first half:
"Our guys got lackadaisical. We weren't taking anything for granted, but we didn't play as hard as we should. We let them get confident, and that's how they stayed in the game by making shots in the first half."
On what the team needs to improve on:
"I would say rebounding. Tonight we got out-rebounded. We're much better than what we showed. Coach Dixon told us that just because it was Loyola Marymount didn't mean we could come out and play soft, play lazy. We have to keep our intensity for 40 minutes no matter who we're playing."
Quoting Loyola Marymount Head Coach Max Good
Opening statement:
"I think you have to be tough to play at Pittsburgh, and, by golly, they're tough."
On the travel:
"We will have played nine of our first ten games on the road. I hope that serves us well later. Playing against a caliber team of Pittsburgh will make us better."
On how Pitt pulled away:
"I didn't think we were very judicious with our shot selection. We haven't been a great three-point shooting team."
Quoting Loyola Marymount guard Anthony Ireland
On Pitt's defense at the beginning of the game:
"It didn't bother me throughout the first half and the second half. I was just trying to pick my spots as best as I can and try to get my teammates involved. Give them credit; they did a good defensive job on me, I shot 7-17, 1-3 from the three. But they played well; I just have to do better."
On the toughness of Pitt:
"Coach stressed that they would be really physical with us. They have five guys on the board; offensive boards, defensive boards, and that the main thing, rebounding. It was beating us to rebounding for the majority of the first half. Gabe Levin came out and played well, he had 14 rebounds. We just have to do better than them and practice."
On guarding James Robinson:
"He was pretty solid. He ran the team pretty well. He wasn't really aggressive in the coach scouting report, which was the main thing, he wouldn't be aggressive, he is looking to get his teammates involved and his assist-to-turnover ratio (35-7), I knew that coming in to the game. Late I tried to heat him up a little bit, but he is a good player. I respect him and yeah, he is a good player."

Reviews of this property
Thank you very much for some lovely days in Prague. The apartment was beautiful and clean and very close to the main attractions in this amazing city. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Reviews for this host's other properties
Tana is a very reliable and complaisant host. Everything worked really uncomplicated. The apartement is beautiful and you get everything you need. The location of the apartement is perfect because its nearly in the middle of the city and you can explore everything by foot. Its was a really nice trip with my friends to prague and i am looking forward to the next visit.
It's a nice, clean and central apartment. And Tana is a very nice host
I recommend it to everyone, who wants to visit prague.
Tana was timely appointment for the delivery of chiavi.L 'apartment is large and equipped with everything but especially central enough to walk around Prague.
Tana è stata puntuale all'appuntamento per la consegna delle chiavi.L'appartamento è grande e provvisto di tutto ma sopratutto abbastanza centrale per girare Praga a piedi.
This is great place and base to see Prague. Right on the main street with crowds passing by but inside quiet, well insulated and very comfortable.
We would have liked to have stayed longer. The washing machine was welcome, also the wifi worked well.
The apartment is very central. Everything was very clean and modern. Although it is so central, it is still very quiet in the apartment because it lies to the backyard. The handover was uncomplicated and straightforward.
Die Wohnung liegt super zentral. Alles war sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet. Obwohl sie so zentral liegt, ist es dennoch sehr ruhig in der Wohnung, da sie zum Hinterhof liegt. Die Wohnungsübergabe verlief komplikationslos und unkompliziert.
Orginal prager Appartment. Zentral, groß, mit Raucherbalkon. Nebenan im Paladium parken ist komfortabel, aber leider nicht günstig.
Das Appartement ist sehr zentral gelegen. Die Vermieterin ist nett und hilfsbereit. Die Übergabe lief problemlos. Ich kann das Appartement weiter empfehlen.
Appartement très bien situé, bon Wi-Fi, 3 bonnes chambres, bon hôtes à l'heures, à recommander

The Juliana Theory
The Juliana Theory formed in western Pennsylvania in 1997 around vocalist Brett Detar, bassist Chad Alan, guitarist Josh Fiedler, and two other friends. It was primarily a side project for Detar at first due to his commitment as guitarist and major songwriter for metalcore band Zao. Eventually, Detar's poppy side won over, and he decided to commit to the Juliana Theory full-time, amicably exiting Zao.
A split EP with the band Dawson High on Arise Records marked the band's recorded debut. Their live shows were electric, filled with smiling tongue-in-cheek, bubblegum pop moves -- including the guitarists' penchant for tossing their picks in the air and catching them. Drummer Neil Hebrank and guitarist Josh Kosker were also aboard as the Juliana Theory signed a multi-album deal with Seattle-based Tooth & Nail. Their debut full-length, Understand This Is a Dream, was released on March 23, 1999. It was full of dreamy, whimsical pop songs, but also hinted at a greater depth that would later be more fully explored.
But first, massive touring in the album's support was on the plate, with the Juliana Theory sharing stages with many bands and performing at several national festivals. The band reentered the studio in 2000, first unleashing a three-way split CD with Onelinedrawing and the Gray AM through Onedaysaviour, and next producing the accomplished, heavily polished, and dynamic Emotion Is Dead album. The Juliana Theory's sophomore opus explored darker depths than their previous outings had touched upon, conjuring emotive power ballads and soaring rock scorchers through textured layering and incredible harmonies.
Detar began playing third guitar more and more in the live setting as the band's fan base increased dramatically. Growing increasingly weary of the emo tag and fed up with their bubblegum emo image and sound, the Juliana Theory began growing longer hair and writing substantially more focused compositions. Virtually every major label under the sun became interested in the group and in 2001, the Juliana Theory signed a recording contract with Epic/Sony. A few dates on the 2001 Warped Tour followed. On October 23 of the same year, the Juliana Theory released six new songs as the Music from Another Room EP on Tooth & Nail. The songs charted new territory for the quintet, evoking the epic dynamics of late-'70s prog rockers like Rush, Yes, and Genesis. A round of performing with the similarly minded Movielife and Detar's old mates in Zao followed.
The following full-length album, Love, continued this move away from genre conventions. It showed the band jumping into a more mainstream approach without sacrificing its intensity or experimental flourishes. It was also released on Epic, making it the official first major-label release from the band. Epic didn't work out for the Juliana Theory, however, and the band issued a live album through Tooth & Nail before signing with indie imprint Abacus for September 2005's Deadbeat Sweetheartbeat. A best-of collection from their years on Tooth and Nail, A Small Noise, appeared in February 2006. That same month, the group formally announced their decision to break-up. ~ Ryan J. Downey

Thanks to the bio, I now know why they played with Zao. I love both bands, but I found it an odd combination until I learned the back story.

His Christchurch home may be 950 kilometres away, but six-year-old Harry Addison has been welcomed into the Bethlehem College community with open arms.
He's made new friends and has even been given homework, which he's not too fond of.
But being in a place that's safe and without aftershocks is all important for Harry, even though his family remain in the South Island.
"[The earthquake] was like a rocket ship. It was really noisy and really heavy," Harry said.
After last Tuesday's earthquake, Harry and his family - dad Hanafi, mum Jenny and two younger siblings, aged 3 and 1, spent a week in their family home in Heathcote Valley. But with no power and water, things were tough, Mrs Addison said.
Harry's school, St Martins, was severely damaged in the earthquake and is closed. It is not known when it will reopen.
"It's been a really stressful time for everyone," Mrs Addison said.
"We can't live in our house... and we just had to get out and have a break from it all.
"Harry's uncle was pulled out of one of the buildings alive. He was in the PGC Building. He's doing fine now though," Mrs Addison said.
An invitation from Mrs Addison's sister, Karina Berry, to send Harry to the Western Bay was eagerly accepted. While the rest of his family ventured to Wanaka, Harry flew to Tauranga and enrolled at Bethlehem College, where Mrs Berry is a teacher.
He arrived at the school at the start of the week, and quickly settled in.
"It's fun. I've been playing outside... and the boys and girls are really nice."
Mr and Mrs Addison, who are both teachers, felt it was important for their son to get back into a routine.
"We call him every day and he's loving it," Mrs Addison said.
The family wanted to thank Bethlehem College principal Eoin Crosbie for his generosity and for accepting Harry into the school.
"The school has really embraced him, and it's been amazing. I'm very grateful."
Harry's parents are due to return to Christchurch today and Harry has a flight booked back to Christchurch tomorrow.
"I don't know what's going to happen with us or with Harry's schooling, but we're stuck in the city," Mrs Addison said.
"Both of the colleges [where we work] are shut, but we have to work when necessary to support the kids.
"I'd consider taking him to school with me if I had to, or there's the idea of moving schools because a lot of the schools are closed."
Harry was a little apprehensive about returning to Christchurch but was eager to be with his family again.
And when he gets off the plane, the first thing he wants to to is give his mum a big cuddle.
Meanwhile, Tauranga Girls' College will welcome about a dozen girls from Christchurch's Marion College.The girls are passionate rowers and will be billeted by Tauranga Girls' College rowing families for the next month.
They will will train 10 times a week and will be the first South Island team to take part in the North Island Secondary School championships next weekend, followed by the national championships, the Maadi Cup.
Their boats were destroyed in Christchurch, so Tauranga Girls' College has given them access to boats, coaches and anything else they may need.
Parent John Rothery said the Christchurch girls would "share everything" with the Tauranga rowing girls, including equipment and accommodation.
Mr Rothery said the Christchurch rowers were looking forward to having showers and being in a stable environment.
"I've been in touch with a few people down there and they're extremely excited about coming up," he said.
"[The earthquake] was a huge event and it's ongoing, and some people have lost everything."
"The [Tauranga] girls wanted to do something to help... and I think it's great, the girls are just wonderful."

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Update from Hope's foster Dad: Hope's Foster Dad tells us that Hope is SO good, SO sweet, and SO well behaved. She does not get into anything she shouldn't and it is obvious that she was well trained earlier in life. Now that it is Spring, Hope loves her outdoor hikes. She may start to go ahead on her long lead, but she always looks back to be sure he is in sight. Hope gets along with all animals, but it is obvious she adores people best. She barks if she hears something to alert her people, but she then greets visitors in a friendly way and she is quiet while with her people. Her Foster Dad loves her but since he works, he knows she would be happiest in a home with someone around most of the time to speak gently to her and give her the attention she craves. Hope is awesome!!
Bio: Beautiful Hope, a 7-year old Golden Retriever/Great Pyrenees mix, is back with Sunshine looking for a home because she behaves as every good Golden/Great Pyrenees should--loving her family and protecting them with all her heart. Hope's family has a large farm where she would never be alone, and we all thought it would be perfect. But as Hope settled in she felt she should protect them from farm workers and strangers who she saw as intruders. With the family's farm stand opening soon, they came to the heartbreaking realization that their situation is too active for her, and she would do best in a quieter home where she did not feel overwhelmed.
Hope needs a family with someone home most of the time, preferably with another pet for companionship, and no children under 10. She likes cats, peacocks, chickens, goats, bunnies, and gets along with most other dogs. She loves riding in the car with her people and is very social with her family, sweet and gentle and loving.
Her recent foster Dad told us: "Hope just wants to be loved and will sit next to me for as long as the petting lasts. She is so sweet and gentle. A friend just stopped by with an 8 week old puppy and Hope was so great with him. She is a great dog!! She will sometimes take treats out of my hand very gently but most times I have to set it on the floor. She does like the couch now. She is no problem and is good with all the others."
Hope's first Sunshine home was a happy place for her for most of her life. She rode in an ice cream truck each summer meeting children and 'working' with her Dad. Hope does not want to be left alone, and when left in her fenced back yard she barked at strangers walking by. Her Dad's landlord said Hope had to go, and that is how Hope lost her previous Sunshine home.
Hope is a wonderful dog, trained, well-behaved and gentle, who needs a family that understands her protective instincts. We know there is a home where Hope can live the rest of her life in happiness. Please inquire about her, if you feel you have a home that would work for this great dog.
PLEASE APPLY by submitting an application via this online link: Click for Adoption Application
Direct questions regarding an application's status to: firstname.lastname@example.com
Approved applicants may direct questions regarding a specific dog to: Dog inquiry from approved applicant.
A contract is signed the day of adoption. Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring the rescue to a vet within 7 business days. The dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. If your vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog is returned and a full refund is provided.
The information provided on each dog is based on observations of our vets, volunteers, fosters and when available, trainers. While we do our best to report any and all issues, SGRR does not make any guarantees as to the health or temperament of any dog. Dogs evolve differently in different environments and we cannot predict with any certainty how the dog you adopt will act in your home.
Many of our dogs are fostered in private homes and we do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! The rescue retains title to the dog and can never be released or sold. Should the adopters no longer be able to keep the dog, SGRR must be notified so that we can take the dog back into rescue and place it into another home. We reserve the right to remove a dog at any time should we find the adopter is no longer caring for their Golden in a way we see fit. Adopters then have to agree to follow up visits as needed.
Be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog - make a tax deductible donation toward medical and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
Hope, a New Canaan Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever for sale in New Canaan, or seeking a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever dog from a breeder in New Canaan.

What is your slavery footprint? Take online survey to find out
Made in a Free World, a non-profit organization based in Oakland, California has developed a website for people to see their own impact on the horrific problem of modern-day slavery. In order to highlight how every person affects the issue of forced labour, a survey has been created with a specific set of questions to accurately gauge the number of slaves used to produce services or goods utilized by the surveyed person. The questions pertain to peoples' every day life; for example: the types of food one consumes, the amount of electronics one owns, the amount of clothing, jewellery, and accessories one has.
The score one receives at the end of the survey represents the number of forced laborers that were likely to be involved in creating and manufacturing the products he or she buys. This is determined based on information regarding the processes used to create these products as well as investigations of the countries in which these stages of production take place for known slave labor (within these specific processes). This number is compiled from multiple individual product scores. According to Made in a Free World, the average persons uses the services of 25 slaves.
The survey also takes the form of an application for the Android and iPhone. With the Made in a Free World app, you can check in at stores, asking brands about slavery in their supply chain as you shop. Please use it to encourage brands to look into where their raw materials are coming from. Then share your check-ins so your friends will also help. Earn Free World points when you get the app and use it to counteract your slavery footprint.

This is pretty big news, it seems to me, after all of the back-and-forth about data being trapped inside Facebook — the social-networking site has joined the Data Portability Group, along with Plaxo and Google, and will now be helping come up with a standard for moving personal data into and out of different networks. For all the brouhaha about Scoble and what an attention hog he is, there was an important point in all of that, which was laid out quite well earlier today in a thoughtful post at GigaOm by my friend Alec Saunders of Iotum. Let's hope this effort makes it easier to own your own data, and move freely from place to place.

If any system of which data of the user is shared across multiple sites, would the valuation of those sites using the shared information not be cut by at least 50%?
Lets take Facebook for example. I figure their multi-billion dollar valuation is for their ability to reach to millions, and the information they have about all of those users.
If then one company, lets take OpenSocial (google) has all that information, they are the true big-wigs.
So, for convenience, its great, but for the sites using it, it won't be as valuable if their looking for an exit-strategy, right?
I'm not an economist here, so please let me know if I am way off, but thats how I see it going down.

Matthew, Facebook isn't opening up and that's why I don't think this is huge news. All the announcement says is that the companies are agreeing to talk about best practices.
If Facebook were to open up, after working things out with other workgroup members, that would be huge news.

Shaw-Urango, Burnham-Irvin Selected For AVCA National Pairs Tourney
April 16, 2012
The USC women's sand volleyball teams of Sara Shaw-Geena Urango and Kirby Burnham-Kelly Irvin have been selected to compete in the pairs competition at the first AVCA Collegiate Sand Volleyball National Championship April 27 and 29 in Gulf Shores, Ala.
The pairs championship will consist of 16 doubles teams in pool play on April 27 that will determine seeding into an April 29 single elimination tournament that will crown a national championship pairs team.
The pairs competition includes the top doubles teams from USC, Hawaii, Florida Atlantic, Alabama-Birmingham, North Florida and Stetson, as well as from the four teams in the team championship.
USC was not among the teams (Pepperdine, Florida State, Long Beach State and College of Charleston) selected into the April 28 team championship. The Women of Troy, 7-4 overall, had hoped to be selected as the at-large representative that instead went to Long Beach State (5-4).
Shaw-Urango has posted a 17-14 record this season while playing as USC's No. 1 pairs team. The duo advanced to the semifinals of Sunday's (April 15) pairs tourney at the USAV Beach Collegiate Challenge.
Burnham-Irvin began 2012 playing in USC's No. 3 slot, but moved up to No. 2 by mid-season. The duo has a 19-12 record.
Women's sand volleyball is in its inaugural season as an NCAA-sponsored "emerging" sport, with approximately 20 schools fielding teams. The sport has 10 years to get at least 40 schools to sponsor sand volleyball for two consecutive years and thereby become established as an NCAA championship sport, otherwise the NCAA will conduct a reclassification review of the sport.
The NCAA does not conduct national championships for "emerging" sports.

1) How about studying the physics behind cats always landing on their feet. Such scientific experiments can only be achieved by dropping cats. Heck, I just like his cat's face while being dropped.
Not impressed?
Neither was McKayla (Maroney, the 16 year old gymnast who got silver at the Olympics and made The Face That Launched A Thousand Memes.)
How bout now.
(found that pic from Facebook)
The Price Waterhouse Coopers Singapore recruitment youtube that is attracting mixed responses. There seem to be people upset auditors can't sing and dance or maybe even edit videos. How come they aren't happy auditors have a sense of humor? (It was meant to be funny, right?)
But seriously, I hope those guys get points for gumption. And risking ridicule. I just thought it might be made by their existing interns – in which case the non-intern people in the video I took to being hugely supportive of their interns' efforts. That is something to be said for recruitment, rather than a "canned" video (open can apply message) with a very proper, impersonal message – if their interns got to do something other than simply photocopying, that was then allowed to be hugely visible like that… (I'm just saying. I studied Accountancy at NTU, but never worked in Big 4…) Anyway with that in mind:
There Go Some Very Brave Auditors. Let He Who Has Equal Guts To Try That Cast The First Snarky Comment.
Ok third time lucky:
Things that make you go AWWWWWWWWW. Buzzfeed's 45 adorable odd animal couples (or threesomes or orgies).
Reminding us once again that the young 'uns are color-blind. Or really, species-blind.
2) Betcha thought I wouldn't be able to say "penis" on a mummy blog without landing someone in therapy. Number One In Huffington Post's "19 Things We Know More About Than Mitt Romney's Tax Returns" Is King Tut's penis. <bows>.
Washington needs PWC. They have the brave auditors.
3) What To Do In The Event Of A Zombie Infestation. So Resident-Evil-year? This happens to be on the Centers For Disease Control And Prevention Public Health Matters Blog. For real.
Actually I felt scared after finding it. So they claim it's tongue in cheek…… I am not putting up zombie pictures.
4) So You Thought Your Job Sucked. At least you didn't hurl yourself on an escaping kangaroo in the line of duty. I especially like how they describe the police officer as a "very fit woman." Kind of a non-event, Wild Animals Help Kangaroos Stage Jailbreak, but I wouldn't hurl myself on an escaping kangaroo unless it had my children in its pouch.
5) Of course, nothing can keep you away from your kids this weekend, you've been missing them all week right? Let's see you spend your day off answering some of these: Sex-related questions from 7th Graders. I liked "Is Trojan Best For Protection?"
Okie, have a good weekend. Especially the brave auditors.
Ok, these are not auditors. I usually end with a nice pic, remember? These are all from that adorable animal couples thing I linked to above.

Boneshaker Mag
A steampunk inspired astronaut adventure?
A steampunk inspired astronaut adventure?
This image has had a complicated life! It was originally created as a self-set editorial piece during my final year at university and included another astronaut on a kind of silver-surfer style board! Preferring the penny-farthing character I later altered the image to it's current state for fun then, on a whim, sent it out to a few art directors as publicity. John Coe, of Boneshaker Mag, got back to me and asked if they could use the image. It ended up as a full-page image opposite the contents in Issue 8. Later on, he also asked to use the image for a set of Boneshaker Mag postcards and so the set is now available to purchase on the Boneshaker Mag Website.

The European Union is increasingly swept up in the anti-immigrant hysteria which impacts many parts of the world. It just passed new legislation which allows EU member nations to hold undocumented migrants in detention centers for up to 18 months and then to ban them from entering EU territory for up to five years. The vote was 369 to 197 and 106 abstained from the vote. Lost in this frenzy about migrants who seek work and wish to become contributing members of the EU, is any concern for personal issues such as those fleeing oppressive regimes and require asylum. Imagine the situation of a person escaping the brutality of the Robert Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe, imagine their need for a safe place from beatings or death.
Manfred Lleber of Germany put it succinctly: "The member states must decide whether they need them, if so, then please legalize them. If you don't need them for your labor markets, then send them home." It is horrifying that people must be kept in a detention center for up to 18 months. Why?
In modern times we enjoy creating new crimes. A human being who seeks work has now become defined as a "criminal." The human condition is one of repression and those who want to be productive members of a society are now condemned for harboring criminal behaviors. Is this the best way we can deal with those who wish to harvest our crops and work in our factories– jail time in a detention center?

Do you strictly need max bw control or > proportional BW control will satisfy your needs? Or you need both? The theoretical advantages of max BW control are that they offer an immediate action on policy enforcement mitigating the problem before it happens (a kind of static partitioning I would say) and that you have probably something that provides a more explicit control to contain different classes of users in hosted environment (e.g., give BW in function on how much they pay). And I can say the io-throttle approach at the moment seems to work fine for a production environment (http://www.bluehost.com). Apart the motivations above, I don't have specific requirements to provide the max BW control. But it is also true that the io-controller approach is still in a development stage and needs more testing. The design concepts make sense, definitely, so maybe only the proportional approach will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the 90% of users out there. -Andrea > > - With the current algorithm BFQ (modified WF2Q+), we should be able > to do proportional BW division while maintaining the properties of > IO scheduler with-in cgroup in hiearchical manner. > > I think it can be simply enhanced to do max bw control also.

Public debate on cuts essential
Spending cuts are only fashionable among opposition parties. No Government likes to be seen as cutting back on public services or the creation of public jobs. While the Conservatives have been warning for some months that tight financial controls will have to be introduced following the bailout of the banks, it was only recently that Gordon Brown and his Labour Government could bring themselves to admit that the public money supply would be dramatically cut in the years to come.
Now the Prime Minister has gone further and pledged to introduce a Bill that would commit any future Government to halving the UK's huge public debt within four years. It is a Bill and a concern that he is unlikely to have to worry about, since it will not come into effect until after a General Election and he is odds on to lose that. Indeed, given the speed with which some of his senior colleagues are distancing themselves from him, it seems that he is the only one who believes Labour stands any chance in the next election.
No matter which party is in power, the bills will have to be paid and the UK has been racking up record debts over the past year and will do for several years to come. Of course there is always waste in public spending, but the level of debt facing the country is so huge that normal efficiencies will not come anywhere near meeting it. On top of tax rises the public is going to notice quite severe cuts in public spending right across the board.
And Northern Ireland will not escape the pain. It is particularly vulnerable since it is dependent on the bloc grant from Westminster and has no tax raising authority of its own.
Given the size of the public sector here and the dependence on the local economy on public spending, the politicians at Stormont face an unenviable task in carving up a diminishing cake.
Already Finance Minister Sammy Wilson has identified savings of £370m that need to be made to balance the books and has asked the various departments to examine their budgets to see where savings can be found. There is no doubt that Northern Ireland is over-governed with an Executive, Assembly and raft of district councils for a population not much over 1.6m people.
The nature of the Executive with its four main partners means that there is often party political bickering rather than mature consensus government. This has led many people to question the effectiveness of the power-sharing administration in tackling difficult issues such as education, policing, justice or housing. In the months and years ahead the politicians will have to put their petty jealousies behind them and work out agreed solutions to the economic problems facing them or have solutions imposed from outside.
From the public's point of view, however, the bottom line is there must be a full and frank public debate in Northern Ireland about spending cuts. This is no time for backroom carve-ups that exclude the taxpayer.

Deep learning has already had a huge impact on computer vision and speech recognition, and it's making inroads in areas as computer-unfriendly as cooking. Now a new startup led by University of Toronto professor Brendan Frey wants to cause similar reverberations in genomic medicine.
Deep Genomics plans to identify gene variants and mutations never before observed or studied and find how these link to various diseases. And through this work the company believes it can help usher in a new era of personalized medicine.
Genomic research is hard. Scientists still know relatively little about our genes and how they interrelate. But Frey and others in the field now know enough that they can equip machines to do the heavy lifting. And there's an awful lot of this heavy lifting to do. "Genomics is no longer about small datasets," Frey tells Gizmag. "It's now about very, very large datasets."
For context, the first effort to sequence a full human genome took 13 years – running from 1990 to 2003. There are now many companies working to sequence many genomes at a time. The largest of these is called Illumina. "Illumina," Frey says, "expects to sequence one million genomes in the next year. Each genome contains three billion letters. That's a lot of data."
