A NOTORIOUS group of internet users known as "Anonymous" have taken down a Scientology website after declaring war on the church.
Anonymous, whose membership included hackers, has begun a "third wave" of attacks in the week-old operation dubbed "Project Chanology".
The group has already flooded Scientology servers, preventing access to at least one of the church's websites.
Chief executive of the 7safe.com security firm Alan Phillips told Sky News in the UK that the group may have used a denial of service attack to take the Scientology website out of service.
"It would appear, that in this case, they've taken down the website by using a denial of service attack, where they basically fire lots and lots of different bits of information into the one place so… no one else can access it," Mr Phillips said.
A spokesman for the Church of Scientology told NEWS.com.au that the church was not the "right target" for these kinds of attacks.
"These types of people have got some wrong information about us," the spokesman said.
The group also claimed to have downloaded many of the church's "secret documents" – which can now be downloaded from popular file-sharing sites.
Anonymous said their actions will not be restricted to their websites, with protests outside Scientology buildings being organised throughout the US.
Earlier today, a message about a possible attack point on the main Scientology website appeared on a Project Chanology webpage.
"We found the direct IP (Internet Protocol address) to www.scientology.org, not protected," the message said.
Today Anonymous released an updated "Open letter to Scientology", following its declaration of war last week.
"By now you have certainly become aware of us and our actions," the statement said.
"We have commenced our assault upon your institution and would like to take this moment to enlighten you.
"We are Anonymous, you might know think of us as merely a hacker group, but we are much more.
"We are the protectors of knowledge, we are the 'internet hate machine'."
In a message posted on YouTube earlier this week, the group said it was tired of the methods used by the church to stem criticism of Scientology.
The church is famous for vigorously attacking its critics, often taking legal action against them or attempting to undermine their credibility.
"Anonymous has therefore decided your organisation should be destroyed, for the good of your followers, for the good of mankind and for our own enjoyment," a synthesised voice said in the clip.
"We shall systematically expel you from the internet and proceed to dismantle the Church of Scientology in its current form."
Watch the video clip:
According to respected technology magazine Wired, Anonymous usually focused on bullying and downloading pirated software and files.
"The group usually amuses itself by stealing passwords to downloading sites and finding ways to harass online communities that its members disdain," a blog on the website said.
"They were last seen on (Wired security blog) Threat Level when a Los Angeles Fox News affiliate ran a story that hilariously implied the group's arsenal included exploding vans."

Scientologists are annoying but mostly harmless.

Their URL (http://www.godhatesfags.com) says it all. Hmmm, nobody seems to be doing anything with http://www.godhateswestborobaptistchurch.com...

rumour has it that this is the result of a bet between robert heinlein and l.ron hubbard, to see who could create their own religion first. heinlein's attempt was "stranger in a strange land." if this is true, it's one of the funniest things i've ever heard. poor heinlein. SiaSL is a great book, and would have made a much happier "religion."

The fact of the matter is, the CoS is the greatest threat to mankind that we have faced. They have committed fraud, theft, even murder, and have gotten away with it. They, and their sub-organizations, must be brought to account for their crimes against humanity. Put simply, the CoS must be destroyed. All else is irrelevant.

I worked next door to the Scientology building in Melbourne (for 17 years!!) and I was always amazed at how much they pressured passers-by in the street to come in for some "auditing". How dare they impose their false beliefs on me and suggest that I might be "unhappy" or "unfullfilled". It always irks me when people when people with mass-psychosis (religion) try and force their beliefs on me. You have my support "Anonymous". Shame on you Scientology...

Nice to finally see some logic in the world. Scientology is just a money making scam with a history of causing suicides and murder amongst those who dare to disagree with their philosophy. At the same time they feed nut jobs like Cruise and Travolta a whole bunch of custom made crap to get them to spread the BS.

¿We found the direct IP (Internet Protocol address) to www.scientology.org, not protected,¿ the message said. I'm not a hacker, but I do know alot about computers. The IP address isn't meant to be hidden or protected, and having it does not give you any special powers. The DNS(www.scientology.org) is just mean to make it easier to remember how to get on websites. When you type that into your browser, the browser then looks in a big table on the internet of what IP this address directs to then goes there. This may be a little confusing but ill use an example to show how easy it actually is to get an IP address of a site, and show how it isn't a big secret. Go start, run, type into text box that appears "ping scientology.org" without the quotes then see plain as day the IP address (18.104.22.168) Also, I approve of anonymous' quest for the public hanging of this cult.

Having been in Scientology for 30 years, they used me for awhile to open up phony accounts, which they then used to try to spam a web site where critics were talking about them....so this IS fitting justice. Once I found out what they were doing (stopping free speech) I soon after escaped out of Scientology, literally in 2000. They've posted thousands of lies about me on the Net. They lie, they are covert, they're sick people--and Anonymous---rock on. Tory Christman-X-Scientologist! Free at LAST~~

I think it's fantastic what this group is doing. When any group such as Scientology seeks to publicly crucify anyone who questions them - that group needs to be exposed for what it is. What Scientology and Scientologists are most SCARED of is the truth getting out. They are happy to face anything but that. Believing they are aliens with some super-technology that no-one else on Earth knows about. Seriously?!? Well I guess we'll see how good their technology is - if it can overcome the attempts of a handful of hackers. Seems they kinda got stuck there huh...? Scientology panders to the egos of the rich, gives them positions of power and then strips their finances away. It was a science fiction joke that not even it's founder took seriously, and here are these nutters taking it on as an actual religion. Go ANONYMOUS GO!!

But what Scientology does is use its strong and powerful law team to stop such things from leaking out. Recently there have been a couple of sites that are against Scientology that have been taken down all because the lawyers have made claims. This is disgusting that are stopping freedom of speech, how can these jerks decide they get to decide on what people should say.

To the people saying 'well done' to hackers, this shows I think a remarkable hipocracy. Whatever you may think of scientology, and believe me I have a low opinion of it, they have the right to free speech using the medium of the internet. Would you be heaping the same kind of praise on a group of anti-globalisation hackers if they disrupted the worlds financial systems and cost the world billions of dollars? Although their (anti-scientology) cause is right, their methods are simply not and we can't condone cyber crimes "in the name of a good cause" because it opens the floodgates for all politically motivated cyber attacks.

The heart of this matter lies in the idea that 'Anonymous,' (a group of hackers hacking on scientology) are doing it without the governments consent. They are vigilantes. Keeping this in mind, those supporting their actions are also supporting the concept of vigilantes. Those not supporting their actions should first understand that their actions are 'illegal.' It should matters not if you think their actions are justified or even if they are wrong, what matters for the time being is that 'Anonymous' acts illegally. The very name of this organization should raise suspicion to this group's illegal status. So you have one corrupt group working on what it says is another corrupt group. This just sounds like civil war to me. If we make the actions of both groups completely legal then we will just have ¿plain old common garden variety war. But in such a case we will still need to ask the question, who is the aggressor and who is just defending themselves? Perhaps in this case we might say, "both are the aggressors." If so (and I tend to think this way,) what makes scientology aggressive, where does this come from, what in society are they reacting to?
- anonymous of a series of tube, internet Posted at 28/01/2008 12:52pm

I wouldn't bother commenting in here but poetry.net.au of Adelaide comments that these hackers are vigilates and anyone who supports them are condonning breaking the law make me sick. So if we were to follow your 'wisdom' there should have been no Vietnam anti war protests or draft dodging (illegal)? Don't bother saving the whales as under Japanese law they are not doing anything illegal? This cult has so much money it is above the law, but worse still it snuffs out any dialog usings its money and lawyers. How can you fight that by standing up and saying "here I am now sue me into oblivion"? Great strategy but doomed to failure. Rightly or wrongly at least these hackers have the balls to try something. Furthermore they are tying also the legal path by getting government ministers involved and so should we.

Contrary to what you may assume, the CoS website was not taken down because we believe they shouldn't have a voice. It is the easiest way of getting media attention for this cause. This is the marketing for the real action. Get out on the streets out the front of your local CoS on Sunday 10th of Febuary at 12 noon. Bring printed information to hand out to the punters. Wear a mask, so the CoS cannot identify and harrass you (see Operations Freakout and Snow White).

Heart Intelligence – Loving Your Way to Great Work
Great work depends on collaboration, creativity, playfulness and heartfelt relationships. It can be difficult to accomplish this ideal. Most of us want to collaborate, but we also want to own our disciplinary expertise. A strategist wants to do strategy and likely has more experience in that realm than say, a back-end developer, and vice versa.
Still, as an industry, many of us are beginning to ask under what conditions can a developer drive strategy? Is it possible for a strategist to contribute meaningfully to art direction? What about a designer-producer? What happens when real interdisciplinary collaboration transpires?
At Instrument, we're asking these questions. In fact, such questions are echoing throughout this new building where our people come together and where our work comes to fruition. The space responds as if it were, itself, a player in the creative process.
Great Space JD Hooge, a Partner and CCO of the agency, spearheaded the new office design. He worked with designers, strategists, producers, writers and developers. He considered work and life. He looked, with others, through the lens of user experience to create a feature set that spoke to what employees need. What he might not have anticipated, though, was that this careful, meticulous, collaborative consideration would yield another "Instrumenter" (A term used affectionately by employees at Instrument to refer to one another).
A New Colleague If someone asked our building, "What do you do?" the building would respond, "I'm the Organizational Host. It's a new position." Like the host of a party, the building makes the event (in this case, great work) better. It ushers in visual thinking, interdisciplinary conversation, dynamic partner meetings, hallway talk and lunchtime laughter. There's room for kids, massage, meditation, balloons on birthdays and waffles on work anniversaries. Almost every surface is fodder for ideation. As a result, our passions take shape more meaningfully.
Great Love The building inspires us to practice a new kind of intelligence – heart intelligence, an activated "knowing" or wisdom characterized by:
- Compassion: the understanding that people are doing the best that they can do and that we are all seeking connection;
- Generosity: a commitment to being collaborative, accountable, hard on issues and soft on people;
- Vulnerability: as researcher and storyteller Brené Brown defines it, "daring to show up and let yourself be seen;"
- Curiosity: contemplating what people think and feel, why they do what they do, why you do what you do, and how you can do the best work together.
My colleagues and I are tapping into this heart intelligence to realize great work. We're communicating and innovating more lovingly. We're trying hard to listen to what we actually know about compassion, generosity, vulnerability and curiosity. In this way, we become more skillful in interdisciplinary collaboration.
Be Great! To evolve our workspaces into an "Organizational Host," we should invest more energy into harnessing heart intelligence. Begin by asking questions and getting attuned to the needs and desires of the people around you. Only by talking to one another will you be able to discover the factors that have the potential to underlie (or foil) true collaboration. Tap into your team's collective emotional, mental and creative intelligence. Then do it!

The dominant evolutionary theory of actuarial senescence—an increase in death rate with advancing age—is based on the concept of a germ cell line that is separated from the somatic cells early in life. However, such a separation is not clear in all organisms. This has been suggested to explain the paucity of evidence for actuarial senescence in plants. We used a 32 year study of Dactylorhiza lapponica that replaces its organs each growing season, to test whether individuals of this tuberous orchid senesce. We performed a Bayesian survival trajectory analysis accounting for reproductive investment, for individuals under two types of land use, in two climatic regions. The mortality trajectory was best approximated by a Weibull model, showing clear actuarial senescence. Rates of senescence in this model declined with advancing age, but were slightly higher in mown plots and in the more benign climatic region. At older ages, senescence was evident only when accounting for a positive effect of reproductive investment on mortality. Our results demonstrate actuarial senescence as well as a survival–reproduction trade-off in plants, and indicate that environmental context may influence senescence rates. This knowledge is crucial for understanding the evolution of demographic senescence and for models of plant population dynamics.

MN Unemployment
May 16, 2011 by USA Post
MN Unemployment, Chuck Davis has 15 years experience in software testing, but in the last two years, has learned a thing or two about roller coasters – the emotional.
Davis, 54, lost his job in Minneapolis in March 2009. Despite the depth of the recession at that time, Davis was optimistic about the prospects of their work. After all, knew a lot of people in Fortune 500 companies across the Twin Cities.
Armed with that confidence, took a few months off and had a bit of remodeling the house he shares with his wife in north Minneapolis. When Davis began a serious job search, she was surprised by what he found.
"I would say that my network of people down," he said. "It was like everybody was fired, and some of his works were, moving to South America, India," he said.
Thousands of Minnesotans know the kind of desperation that Davis has experienced. Over the past year, an average of about 73,000 state workers have been without work for six months or more.
The long-term unemployed workers constitute about one third of the total unemployed population of the state. Nearly two years after the official end of recession, its ranks have grown steadily and show no sign of abating.
Unable to find a job through their network of contacts, Davis, 54, went to the entire popular sites online job. A Navy veteran who served in the 1991 Persian Gulf War, networking events attended by a group of veterans.
For months, he had no perspective. Then, last year, as extended unemployment insurance was running out, there was a flurry of interviews. The roller coaster shot up, then fell back when it leaked out.
As for job ads
After two years of unemployment, Davis became more desperate. Last week, he found himself looking help-wanted ads on the corkboard in the coffee shop near his home.
One person was looking for a driver to take her daughter to swim practice after school twice a week. Davis asked and never heard back.
"I see nothing at this time," he said.
The "long termers" reflect the continued weakness in the labor market, "said Sylvia Allegretto, an economist at the University of California at Berkeley.
"We have a work situation that has never been in progress, has not found its equilibrium," Allegretto said.
Minnesota has lost 150,100 jobs since the recession began in December 2007 to the low point a couple of years later. Since then, employers have returned less than a fifth of jobs.
Stigma long-termers
As if the tight job market is not difficult enough, the unemployed also face the potential stigma that is undesirable in the eyes of employers.
The number of unemployed workers is making it big, said Phillip Swagel, an economist at the University of Maryland. Concerned that long-term unemployed will be unhappy and lose their connection to the workforce.
Swagel said it is bad for the individual and society.
"For the economy, which is in fact a generation of workers whose skills are deteriorating as the economy continues and technology happens," he said.
That means a less productive work force and bigger bills for the government and taxpayers.
Swagel said many older workers go on disability when they cannot find jobs. He thinks it would be better to use those resources to help people trained to work in industries that are hiring, and requests that the key to reducing long-term unemployment.
Davis, software tester, has come to that conclusion. He recently learned how to operate a machine used to manufacture computer. On Wednesday, it marked a temporary job.
Davis does not know how long it will last, but hoped that shows how much you can work after two years of unemployment.

Microneedling Hairloss – How long is it likely to take before I spot detectable results from my Scientia Roller?
The speed at which you might see apparent changes in your skin from a Micro Needle Roller may be dependent upon precisely what type of skin condition you are dealing with along with how extensively the body needs to remodel the area in question.
Skin micro needling is effective for treating a wide range of conditions, which include:
- Scars, from cosmetic surgery, burns, chicken pox, acne and more.
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Cellulite and uneven skin
- Stretch mark scars
- Hair loss
- Acne Scars
- and more.
While you pass the Scientia DermaRoller across the body, it makes microscopic punctures into the skin – of which most are simply pressing the pores open for a few minutes. This stimulation is simply perceived by your body as trauma, which triggers a release of growth factors that bring about the production of collagen and elastin. The human body reacts to any trauma simply by setting in motion the healing process, however, quite often it will just regenerate as far as it must to keep you in good health – which is different to recovering to an aesthetically pleasing level. By constantly prompting the healing process, you encourage your body to carry on healing until the job is entirely complete.
The body generally assumes that wrinkles, stretch mark scarring, wrinkles and other kinds of scars are satisfactory, but through the gentle daily reminder triggered through use of the Dermaroller the body is simply tricked into carrying on the restoration process up until the skin has also restored itself to an aesthetic level. The process of collagen remodelling might go on for numerous weeks after every single Scientia Roller session, but detectable changes can be seen after only 1 week! Your skin automatically renews itself every forty days, so by having a little stimulation, changes can be remarkable and quick.
Microneedling Hairloss – Just how quickly can the Scientia Derma Roller trigger results?
Changes could be dramatic and quick, though it can be dependent on how much collagen must be created in your skin – as an example, fine lines or minor wrinkles, or small acne scars would regenerate at a higher speed than deep stretch mark scars or surgery scarring. But please remember that cigarette smoking uses up the vitamin C your skin must have to manufacture collagen, and a bad diet will definitely provide you less building blocks to work with. So for optimum results, keep up your skin roller regimen, eat well, give yourself the nutritional advantage by using Scientia Nutrition MultiVitamins and use our vitamin rich treatment cream promptly after every single microneedling session.
Browse through our online order page to get additional advice and to buy your Scientia Skin Roller now!
Alternatively, why not have a look at the before and after photos page in order to see the great results that have already been achieved with derma rolling. Or even visit the countless dermaroller reviews on our review page.
Please remember to Google +1 this "Microneedling Hairloss" page and share this with your friends!

Nissan's new Murano on display
Nissan has given the third generation of the Murano midsize crossover SUV a more modern design, nicer interior and better fuel economy than the previous version. The company says the exterior runs counter to the typical "heaviness and chunkiness" of SUVs, with sculpted sides, new lighting and a jet-inspired roof. Inside, the 2015 Murano gets three-cushion seats and a low center console that makes conversations easier between the front and rear occupants. The SUV, available in the fall, comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that will get about 24 mpg in combined city-highway driving. That's 20 percent better than the current version.

Author | Priyanka Nair | Friday, Dec 23,2011 8:03 AM
Snapdeal.com has assumed a new fun and fresh look with its new ad campaign, which features a central character called 'Yam Dude'. The idea is to convey the variety of experiences that consumers can have while shopping online on the portal.
The campaign, conceptualised by Draftfcb Ulka, highlights the offers that Snapdeal.com has to offer across restaurants, spas, mobiles, electronics, fashion and other lifestyle categories. The campaign also focuses on the functional benefits of cash on delivery.
Speaking to exchange4media, Sandeep Komaravelly, Head - Marketing, Snapdeal.com, said, "Given that we are communicating to a wider audience about the products and services available on Snapdeal.com, we are doing a mix of genres ranging from GEC, News, Youth, Music to Entertainment. The idea is to ensure that we reach out to our audience not only in the metros, but in other cities as well. 30-35 per cent of our spends will go into the new TVC." Television apart, Snapdeal.com is also using other multiple media vehicles to promote the Yam Dude campaign. A radio and outdoor campaign will be running in top 10 cities, along with a digital campaign across various digital channels.
Talking about the marketing plans for 2012, Komaravelly said, "The key marketing strategy for 2012 is to keep improving on the RoI (Return on Investment) of various marketing investments. We also want to continue innovations in every medium through new campaigns and activities, which generate a disproportionate buzz."
Commenting on the core concept of the TVC, Sanjay Tandon, COO, Draftfcb Ulka, said, "The Yam-Dude campaign is the first step in building an enjoyable 'Snapdeal' brand. The campaign is based on an idea of what our irresistible deals enable you to do – live new and exciting experiences everyday."
Shiveshwar Raj Singh, Group Creative Director, Draftfcb Ulka, added here, "The challenge in any category today is to stand out in the clutter of advertising, and if you can do it on the back of a relevant and differentiated consumer insight, the chances of success increase manifold. As consumers, we just can't resist a tempting deal. And at Snapdeal.com, the kind of deals you get are so wonderful that even immortals would be hard pressed to turn them down. With this simple premise we came up with the idea of the God himself getting enamoured by the range of earthly experiences that you have access to with Snapdeal.com. Once you have an iconic image like our 'Yam Dude' at the centre of your campaign, then all product offerings across media get wrapped around it. As the man himself would say some things you only see once. Our job is to ensure you remember them."

Mr. BUNNING. Madam President, I want to explain why I will vote no on the nomination of Robert D. Reischauer to serve as a public trustee of the Social Security and Medicare Programs.
Although he has a Ph.D. in economics and extensive experience with Federal budgetary matters as former head of the Congressional Budget Office, Dr. Reischauer claimed that he did not understand his basic responsibility under Federal law to report income on his tax returns from 2004 to 2008. He only paid back taxes on rental property in Canada when he brought his failure to the attention of the White House during the vetting process.
On his Finance Committee questionnaire, which he signed under penalty of perjury, he claimed this was an ``oversight'' he did not discover until 2009. But in discussions with bipartisan committee staff, he appeared to tell a different story and said it was a deliberate choice he made at the time he filled out his tax returns. In the same meeting, he said he was sorry that he told the White House.
And while he said that he had offsetting expenses that would have canceled out his tax liability and produced a loss, Dr. Reischauer kept no receipts or records of those expenses, saying that he paid off workers in cash.
It appears that Dr. Reischauer was not truthful or careful about his Federal responsiblity to report income. Someone who has not earned the public trust is not qualified to be a public trustee, and that is why I oppose his confirmation.
I ask that the RECORD reflect my vote against Dr. Reischauer's confirmation.

This is a competition that occurs when there are multiple sellers within the marketplace and they are all selling similar, however not standardized, products to the consumer.
The market suits newer or upcoming businesses due to the fact that there is not a significant barrier to entry. This makes the market more contestable.
Due to the differences within the market, it creates diversity and choice for the consumer. There are many different types of product makes it possible for each product to be subjected to certain people groups.
This type of market is more efficient than a monopoly as it makes sellers having to develop new ways to get the attention of and even keep the consumer into buying their product.
The differences in a multitude of a similar product creates a lot of unnecessary waste, such that producers would be making a lot of advertisements and such to get the consumers to buy their product, which just creates a lot of waste.
This market system is both inefficient in the long and the short run as the prices of the products are above the marginal cost in both cases. Though it is more efficient in the long run than in the short run, it is still inefficient.
This is a market structure that occurs where are few sellers and producers offering a similar product within the same market to many consumers. Basically, it is when the few rule over the many.
The oligopolies may be able to obtain a highly competitive strategy, as each company is wanting to dominate the other within a certain market field. This means that would obtain the same benefits as more competitive market structures, such as a lower price on their product.
Oligopolists may become more efficient in the fields of innovation, new product, and process development. Due to the amount of profit they make, they usually make innovates towards many aspects of their company, in which the consumer may be able to reap the benefits.
Oligopolies usually have price stability, in which the prices for a product doesn't change much over long periods of time. This can help the consumer as they can usually plan ahead to see what they can and cannot buy within a certain period of time.
Since there are only a few sellers and producers, the consumer doesn't have a lot of choices in what product they want to buy or not buy.
New companies will have a hard time trying to get into an oligopoly due to many barriers to entry, such as predatory pricing, limit pricing, and a strong brand that they will have to compete with as per usually that strong brand is what is controlling the market at that moment.
If the companies form a cartel-like marketing structure, than it could lead to higher prices and less of the product for the consumer to have to buy.
If there are about 2-3 or so companies that are dominating the market, that they may allocate their resources and make their product inefficiently due to the fact that they are making so much money, they don't really care about how efficient they are.
Types of Monopolies
Monopolies are when there is one companies that is commanding a certain part of the market. However, there are many different types of monopolies that fall within this area, such as natural monopolies, geographical monopolies, technological monopolies, and government monopolies.
Natural Monopolies
This type of monopoly occurs when there is a very high fixed cost or other barriers to entry that it becomes more efficient for the consumer to just have have one producer to provide the product than to have multiple producers to provide the product.
The natural monopolies usually are very efficient with their resources as it would be impractical if more than one company were to provide the same service.
When more of the product is being produced, the cost for that product will decrease, which will offer substantial benefits for the consumer and such.
Firms are the price setters as there is very little competition within this field, as there are no suitable substitutes that the consumers are able to buy.
They also have no incentive to provide any new products ans such due to the little to no competition.
Geographical Monopoly
This is a monopoly that occurs when a producer or seller has control over a certain area of land due to there being no other substitutes with this said area, which, if consumers want that producer, forces consumer to go and buy the product from that one producer.
Since the product is only in a certain region, it makes more profit for the companies, which can be used to make production more efficient and better for all consumers.
There will be less waste used due to the fact that other companies will not be advertised the same product that the producer will have a monopoly on.
Since it is restrained to a certain area, there will be more productivity within that area due to the fact that the consumers will have to go to that are in order to obtain the said product.
There is many barriers to entry for a producer that wants to sell the same or even similar product if that producer wants to be able to prosper within a certain area of the market.
If that producer were to stop making a product within that area, then there are really no other substitutes that the consumer will be able to get to as that producer was the one controlling the market in that area.
If a consumer were to hate the product in that geographical space, then that consumer would have to go way out of their way to find a substitute that they feel like getting, creating less diversity within that specific area.
Technological Monopoly
These monopolies occur when there is a product and/or service that a company has that has legal protection in the forms of patent or copyrights. These monopolies usually create new products that have no substitutes due to the fact that it is original and such.
These monopolies create more innovations and advancements within the society of America and the rest of the world.
These monopolies, unlike geographical monopolies, are not restricted to one area and every consumer is able to obtain the product.
The monopoly only last as long as the patent for that certain product, which is about 20 years. This is enough time for the more and even new innovation to come out.
These monopolies are protected by patents and other legal documents, meaning that if a company were to make a substitute that was even close to the patent product, then that company could be sued and such.
Since no substitutes can be made, the producers are the controllers of the price, which means that they can sell for as high as they want and the consumers, if they want the product, will have to pay the price.
Government Monopolies
This is a monopoly that is created by the government. This is when a government agency or corporation is the only producer of a certain good/service and any other substitutes of the product are prohibited.
The government has monopolies on sector of the nation for the sake of security and so that the products and services that keep America running don't get into other people's hands.
Provides services and goods that could not be provided by firms or other companies due to many factors such as demand, resources, and profit.
Prices are usually stabilized to a certain price, so it is very predictable to the consumer what the price of a certain product/service will be and such.
The government is getting involved with the market and such, which is not the definition of a free-market economy. This gets many people within the American society kinda made.
Other companies may be restricted on what they can sell due to the government having controls over certain parts of the market and the legal barriers that the government puts up.

Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer, with about 640?000 new cases each year worldwide. Despite an overall marginal decline in the incidence of most head and neck cancers in recent years,1 the incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma has increased greatly, especially in the developed world. In the United States, the incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma increased by 22% from 1.53 per 100?000 to 1.87 per 100?000 between 1999 and 2006, after showing no change between 1975 and 1999.1 The United Kingdom has seen a 51% increase in oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma in men from seven per 100?000 to 11 per 100?000 between 1989 and 2006.2
The increase in incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma seems to be accounted for by a rise in human papillomavirus (HPV) related oropharyngeal carcinoma. A recent retrospective study showed a progressive proportional increase in the detection of HPV in biopsies taken to diagnose oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma in the Swedish county of Stockholm over the past three decades (23.3% in 1970s, 29% in 1980s, 57% in 1990s, 68% between …

In today's era when most of the individuals have disconnected their landline phones and gone mobile, there are still quite a substantial number of people who still prefer cordless phones over mobile phones. In fact, more and more households, businesses, educational institutions and industries are installing cordless phones, as not only it is cheap, it comes with long range capabilities and durability.

For instance, if we talk about Engenius, which is the leading provider of cordless phones, it has changed the traditional telecom landscape by offering longest range, i.e. up to 250,000 sq. feet in healthcare facilities, warehouses and retail stores. Moreover, it can penetrate 12 floor building and is perfect for school campuses and farms with range up to 3000 acres.

Apart from this, the new cordless phones come with a myriad of new features, such as, clear voice, an in-built answering machine, crisp display, conferencing, phonebook, great battery back-up, call barring, fully compatible with home security system, and wide range of packages and models to choose from. Hence, not only it makes your life simple, it provides security too.

With so many features and models available, it's not difficult to choose a cordless phone for your house or facility. All you have to do is check the price plans and features that best suit your need and budget.

In the current global enterprise business environment, with the millions of applications running across mobile phones and tablets, mobile brings more business opportunities for value added services but also brings more challenges to existing systems. Data is being accessed at a rapidly increasing rate to service mobile applications and the workload is becoming a burden to back-end servers. The solution to this problem is caching, and IBM® WebSphere® eXtreme Scale or the WebSphere DataPower® XC10 Appliance can cache frequently used data, thereby improving the performance of mobile applications and reducing the traffic to these back-end applications.

If you're problem is that you need better performance on an increasingly higher traffic that mobile applications bring, in memory caching is your solution.

Read through the Enterprise Caching in a Mobile Environment Redbook to see how WebSphere eXtreme Scale, WebSphere Liberty Profile, and IBM Worklight can help you solve these problems. And better yet, we have an entirely working sample that can show you show easy it is to write an application using these technologies!

The economics of mobile application testing

The year 2011 seems to be when a lot of companies are motivated to extend their business applications to support mobile devices. I get asked about how IBM Rational supports mobile application development at least once a day (usually more often than that!). As new smart phones and tablets are projected to become the "client of choice" for internet access ( ZDNet: As Microsoft's monopoly crumbles, its mobile future is crucial), business application support for them will only intensify in the future. In some ways, mobile application software development is similar to other kinds of software development. But there are some different challenges associated with developing mobile software too.

One of the areas where mobile application development poses a huge challenge is testing. Testing for mobile applications represents a step-jump in complexity and cost over more traditional applications. With the hundreds of different mobile devices in the market, there are a wider range of endpoint types on which the application must execute. And even if you limit the range of devices that you plan to support with the application, the list will still typically contain dozens of devices manufactured by different vendors and at different releases. Compare that list to the one that a typical desktop application needs to support.

And there are more variables thrown into the equation for mobile testing that aren't relevant for other kinds of software. The same model of device may function subtly different when connected to a different carrier network. And the quality of the network connection can have profound impact on the behavior of a mobile application. Even the movement of the mobile device itself may be an important factor in the behavior of the application (some applications specifically exploit device movement). How can a mobile application project address this quality control challenge?

You could rely on mobile device simulators and emulators (Mobile Emulators & Simulators: The Ultimate Guide) for your testing. Using this approach, a software program running on a desktop workstation takes the place of a real physical device. I think that the use of simulators and emulators for mobile application testing can be valuable for developer unit tests and other "early stage" testing of a mobile app. However, the fact remains that these programs are not the actual physical devices. Some of the device simulators and emulators are excellent, but some are not that good at replicating the real device. I don't know about you, but I would not put an important business application into production that was solely tested on a simulator / emulator without ever being tested on a real physical device.

You could plan on manual testing of the mobile app (Mobileapptesting.com Article on Manual vs Automated Testing). You would have to buy all of the various mobile devices that you plan to support with the app. And pay someone (actually a team of someones) to tediously go through a written script of instructions describing the tests... on every one of those devices... for every build of the application. Expensive and inefficient is really an understatement to describe this process. But manual testing does serve an important purpose by providing a mechanism for obtaining crucial "usability" feedback for the app. Usability, or user friendliness, is even more important for mobile apps than it is for other kinds of software. And it is pretty hard to get an idea about how usable your app is without a real human being interacting with it on a real physical device.

There are mobile app testing solutions that rely on real physical devices tethered to a computer and running an agent program that the tests interact with and drive (Mac News Article about Eggplant). This approach has the advantage of using real physical devices for test with the added benefit of automation. You still have to buy all of the devices to be tested. And you are responsible for setting them up, tethering them to a computer and installing the test agent on them.

Another approach to address the mobile app testing challenge is to leverage what I call a "device cloud". The compute resources typically exposed by internet "cloud" services today are regular general purpose computers - virtual machines running the Linux or Windows operating system (NIST Definition of Cloud Computing). But a cloud could expose compute resources that are actually physical mobile devices. Instead of "renting" a Linux virtual machine for a few hours or days of testing, you could rent a specific model and release of a mobile device.

Does such a "device cloud" for mobile app testing exist? Yes, there is in fact just such a solution available today. IBM Rational Quality Manager (RQM) offers an adaptor for managing the execution of mobile app testcases on real mobile devices leveraging a device cloud controlled by the DeviceAnywhere system. Using this solution, you can write an automated script that executes the same test for your application on many different mobile devices. So you don't need a different script for each device. And the system can automatically capture screen shots of the mobile device if a testcase fails. The test failure data, including screen capture, is attached to a defect created by RQM which routes it to the application developer.

Now that I know about the "device cloud" automated testing solution, I can't imagine a more economical way to get the test coverage needed for mobile apps. I'll still use simulators for unit tests and to quickly check the app during the code-deploy-debug cycle of app development. But for fully automated functional testing and pre-production regression tests, I am really enthusiastic about the cost savings of the new device cloud test solution.

What do you think? Could a "device cloud" be in your future for mobile application testing? What other solutions for testing mobile apps have you seen?

Many of our customers and partners are interested in extending key portal-based applications to mobile devices. Most are prioritizing this effort as a set of services that is becoming mandatory (no longer optional) to deploy, to support the information access preferences of their customers, partners and end users. A wide variety of market research and information publications cite the rapid growth of the mobile application market. For example, a recent IBM study managed by the Institute of Business Value interviewed over 600 consumers across international locations and found over 50 percent would prefer to receive their information via mobile device instead of the PC today. Further, the study predicts that the world's population of mobile-phone users expected to increase from the current 50 percent to 80 percent in 2013.

IBM software offerings are architected to deliver information, collaboration, application and transaction services on the platform of choice; whether server-based, rich client or via mobile devices. Many of our Portal customers are already extending their portal based solutions to mobile audiences. Examples include online mobile banking, managing in-store task lists, customer service, accounts management, alerts, and subscriptions, application purchases, and more.

Using WebSphere Portal and the Mobile Portal Accelerator offering, our customers have leveraged the scalable, secure WebSphere Portal foundation services, including centralized administration and personalization services to seamlessly deliver applications targeted towards the information needs of their users; customers, prospects, business partners and internal employees. The Mobile Portal Accelerator software delivers content to mobile devices that 'fits' or suits the unqiue display characteristics of the mobile device; whether it is an iPhone, Blackberry, Nokia or older phone with fewer display options. In fact, the Mobile Portal Accelerator device repository enables the software to support over 6500 devices worldwide, with new devices added as the are updated or introduced to the market. Our customers have rapidly increased their ability to introduce new products and services to their connected and mobile audineces, using the combination of WebSphere Portal and Mobile Portal Accelerator, both managed via Portal administration. Their end user audiences are able to seamlessly complete tasks, collaborate with others, contribute new and updated information using their preferred device and work style, greatly improving overall organizational productivity and competitiveness. This solution also lets administrators, or site designers, make the right choices about which portal applications and pages they want to make available to their mobile portal audiences. In addition, from an end user point of view, the mobile end user is presented with a productive mobile experience; as the mobile display (including navigation, text and images) are optimized for the display characteristics of their mobile device. This reduces the frustration mobile users can experience when accessing mobile content designed for delivery to the "lowest common denominator" web mobile experience, which can often involve scrolling or missed information via an incomplete display. The Mobile Portal Accelerator multi-channel server and mobile device repository connect the device specific characteristics (and there can be as many as 800 defined per mobile device) through the multi-channel server which optimizes the portal content appropriately to the specific mobile device that invoked the portal page.

Last month we introduced a new version, the Mobile Portal Accelerator 6.1. This release introduces several useful new features, including support for the WebSphere Portal 6.1 platform. The Mobile Portal Accelerator (MPA) 6.1 release provides closer integration with the Lotus Web Content Management (LWCM) author and presentation environment. This means that LWCM content authors can create content, approve it for publication to the portal, and seamlessly also publish that content out to their mobile audiences. You can see a good demonstration of this in a demo posted to the Mobile Portal Accelerator wiki. Notice that the LWCM content authored presents differently (and is perfectly tailored to ) the device display characteristics of the iPhone, Blackberry and Nokia mobile phones used in the demonstration. Doesn't get much easier than that...

The new MPA 6.1 release also includes new out of box mobile enabled portlets, including an updated RSS mobile portlet, stock reporting portlet, and new client framework widget sample portlets (see details below).

Many of our customers are asking about support for 'Smartphones' with the ability to render Web 2.0 capabilities such as AJAX client side rendering. The Mobile Portal Accelerator offers support for such devices, and the ability to develop applications that can take advantage of the presentation power of those devices, via new Framework Client widgets and sample mobile portlets provided with the release. The sample widgets provide over fifty rich, client side interfaces that can be used to deliver an enhanced, more interactive experience to client capable mobile devices. Examples of these widgets include styling, transition, AJAX table, autocomplete, popup, ticker tape, and more. You can see a demonstration of some of these capabilities displayed to mobile devices, and other mobile portal application demonstrations on the Mobile Portal Accelerator wiki. This release also introduced several features and priorities that were planned jointly as we worked with our customers and partners to understand their current and future plans for mobile portal applications.

It's a great time to be involved with this technology - it's a very active space and our team is quite responsive to the needs of our customers as they deploy mobile portal solutions - worldwide.

For those seeking more technical detail on the Mobile Portal Accelerator, the Information Center is another useful online resource. If you are to attend one of the IBM Portal Excellence Conference 2009 events this fall, you'll find several Mobile Accelerator technical, business value and hands-on lab sessions are offered.

We look forward to hearing your questions, comments and plans to extend your portal applications to mobile audiences.

For Blink-182's latest single "She's Out Of My Mind," the American rock band chose to spoof their iconic "What's My Age Again" video back in 1999. This time around, it's a trio of women in their birthday suits instead of band members Travis Barker, Mark Hoppus and Tom Delonge running around and wreaking havoc in the streets. This new video is from their new album, California, which features new new guitarist Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio.
Internet celebrities Lele Pons, Hannah Stocking and Vale Genta signed up to take over the roles of band while while actor-singer Adam Devine makes a cameo as the nurse from the original version. Watch Blink's parody of their own song below:

FOLLOWING a successful show in 2016, arts and heritage charity Settle Stories is bringing Belgian storyteller Iwan Kushka back to Settle.
A featured artist in the organisation's summer events programme, Iwan will perform a new show, Sailing to Fudaraku, tomorrow and a present a workshop in Settle on Saturday.
Sailing to Fudaraku – The Story of African Zen is a mythical-musical meeting of the music of Africa and the stories of Zen and Daoist teachings.
Iwan weaves stories and music to take the audience on a journey to somewhere in the Southern Seas, where there is an island paradise called Fudaraku.
Although it is a geographically real place, it is so remote from Japan that the journey there is impossible.
Iwan tells the story of two friends, consumed by an unreasonable yearning for the fabled paradise, who have cast themselves adrift from the Pacific coast of Japan, sealed in a cabin aboard a rudderless boat.
Multi-instrumentalist Iwan accompanies himself on the frame drum, the mbira (African thumb-piano) and other instruments; and uses loop pedals, drum machines and tech-effects to create a soundscape which underpin his stories.
Sailing to Fudaraku will take place at 7pm tomorrow at The Joinery, Settle (behind Ye Olde Naked Man Cafe).
Tickets cost £12 online via settlestories.org.uk/sailing or £14 on the door or via 05603 845693
Iwan will also offer a workshop, Story Lab, from 10am to 4pm on Saturday at The Joinery. Tickets cost £35.
