This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/532,884, filed June 4, 1990, pending, by Dan Rink, for which priority is claimed.
The development of optical fibers for transmission of laser light with low loss has facilitated the widespread application of lasers in communications, industry, and medicine. To couple optical fibers to lasers and laser-powered devices, connectors have been developed which properly orient and position the optical fiber ends for input and output purposes. The connectors have evolved into two major types, threaded connectors and bayonet connectors, which have become standardized. Standardization has permitted the interconnection of lasers, optical fibers, and end-user devices from a wide variety of manufacturers.
Unfortunately, the standardization of optical connectors has had the effect of freezing the development and improvement of optical connectors, and has institutionalized some serious shortcomings in the state of the art. For example, although the standard connectors are much larger than the diameter of the typical optical fiber, they are too small to be grasped and manipulated easily by many individuals. The standard threaded optical connector assembly (SMA type) includes a male connector provided with a small nut adjacent to its distal end, and this nut must be rotated through several complete revolutions to effect a secure connection. However, when the male connector is inserted in the complementary female connector, the nut is typically disposed directly adjacent to a housing or bulkhead wall which supports the female connector, and grasping and rotating the nut is an awkward and difficult task.
The standard bayonet connector assembly (STC type) generally includes an alignment pin extending radially outwardly, requiring the male plug to be closely scrutinized and rotated to effect proper alignment for full insertion of the male plug. Thereafter the bayonet pin(s) of the female connector must be scrutinized and aligned with the bayonet slot(s) of the male connector, and then the male connector must be rotated to engage the bayonet pin(s) and slot(s).
It may be appreciated that both forms of optical connectors require close visualization of the connectors, and a high degree of manual dexterity to effect connection and disconnection. A comparison with electrical connectors is instructive in highlighting the shortcomings of optical connectors. Typical audio connectors such as RCA-type phone plugs permit connection by simple insertion of a male plug ferrule in a female plug receptacle. Electrical power connectors generally include spade lugs that are inserted into receptacles in a female plug. In most cases a casual glimpse and a single motion are sufficient to effect connection or disconnection of audio or power connections. In contrast, prior art optical connectors generally require close and continued visualization, and several intricate manual motions to effect connection or disconnection. Clearly there is a need to improve the design and function of optical connectors.
In the companion parent patent application noted above, there is described an improved bayonet connector assembly in which the slots which receive the bayonet pins are formed to include camming edges extending from the distal edge of the connector nut to the detent portions of the nut. Due to the intrinsic strength requirements of this structure and prior art STC-type bayonet connectors, the nuts are generally formed of die cast or injection molded metal. However, it would be easier and less expensive to fabricate the nut using injection molded plastic material. Injection molded plastic STC-type bayonet nuts have been introduced commercially.
The present invention generally comprises an improved bayonet connector assembly which overcomes many of the drawbacks of prior art optical connectors. The invention includes a bayonet connector nut having a generally cylindrical tubular configuration with a bore extending therethrough. The inner surface of the bore includes at least one camming surface extending circumferentially and axially therein and disposed to impinge upon the corresponding bayonet pin of the mating bayonet connector. A detent slot is formed at the inner end of each camming surface to engage and retain the bayonet pin that is driven slidably along the camming surface into the detent slot.
In one embodiment of the invention, there is provided a pair of camming surfaces formed in the bore of the cylindrical nut, and the detent slots are defined by a pair of diametrically opposed holes in the sidewall of the nut. Each hole comprises a generally L-shaped opening at the inner end of the respective camming surface.
The end surfaces of the cylindrical nut are annular and continuous, so that the strength of the structure is maximized. Furthermore, the camming surfaces and the detent slots are arranged so that the entire nut may be formed in a single molding operation, such as injection molding or the like. Due to the inherent strength of the construction, the nut may be formed of plastic material, thereby saving money in materials and dies. Furthermore, the outer surface of the molded nut may be provided with a diameter and surface configuration that enhance manual grasping of the nut.

The present invention generally comprises an improved bayonet connector. A salient feature of the invention is that the structure is adapted to be fabricated by low cost methods, such as molding of a flowable, settable material, such as plastic, resin, polymer, molten metal, or the like.
With regard to FIGS. 2 and 7, the bayonet connector generally includes a tubular cylindrical body member 11 having a ferrule 12 extending from the distal end thereof. In the preferred embodiment the assembly is adapted for use in optical transmission, and an optical fiber 13 is joined to the proximal end of the member 11 and extends to the distal end of the ferrule 12. The ferrule is dimensioned in diameter and length to be received in a female optical bayonet connector 20 and to present the distal end of the optical fiber at the focal point of the connected device, such as a laser light source or the like. An annular boss or flange 14 extends radially outwardly from the distal end of the body member 11 at the junction with the ferrule 12. The components 11-14 are generally common to prior art optical bayonet connectors.
Secured to the body member 11 is a connector nut 16, as shown in greater detail in FIGS. 3-6. The nut 16 is generally configured as a tubular cylinder having a bore 17 extending axially therethrough, and proximal and distal ends 18 and 19, respectively. An internal flange 21 extends radially inwardly in the bore 17 and is disposed between medial and proximal portions of the bore 17. The flange 21 defines a narrow axial opening through which the body member 11 extends with minimal sliding clearance. A C-ring or washer 22 is secured in a shallow annular groove 23 in the body member to position the connector nut 16 on the body member 11. A compression spring 24 is secured about the body member 11, with the opposed ends of the spring impinging on the boss 14 and the internal flange 21 to urge the connector nut 16 against the stop formed by the C-ring 22.
The nut 16 is provided with at least one detent window opening 26 formed in the sidewall thereof. Each detent window is configured with an L-shape, the distal portion 27 of the L-shape comprising a detent dimensioned to capture the bayonet pin 25 of a female optical bayonet connector, the proximal portion 28 of the L-shape comprising an entrance to the detent portion 27. In the preferred embodiment a pair of diametrically opposed detent windows 26 are provided. The components 16-28 are generally common to prior art optical bayonet connectors.
With regard to FIG. 1, a prior art molded connector nut is typically provided with a pair of detent windows 26, and a pair of grooves 31 formed in the bore 17 and extending linearly and axially from the distal end of the connector nut to a conjunction with a respective detent window. The grooves 31 are each dimensioned to permit a bayonet pin 25 of a female optical bayonet connector to slidably translate therealong, so that the nut may be engaged with the female connector and then rotated to retain the engagement by capturing the bayonet pins in the detent portions 27 of the windows 26.
The difficulty in using the prior art arrangement shown in FIG. 1 is that the rather narrow grooves 31 must be aligned with the bayonet pins before the connector assemblies may be engaged, and this alignment is not obvious by visualization. Furthermore, the nut must be rotated carefully and slowly until alignment of the grooves 31 and bayonet pins 25 is attained, the nut must be urged axially to translate the pins 25 fully into the grooves 31, and the nut then rotated in the correct circumferential direction to capture the bayonet pins in the detent portions. These maneuvers are each awkward and tedious, and performing them serially and successfully is a difficult task.
A salient feature of the invention is the provision of at least one camming surface 36 formed in the surface of the bore 17 and extending from the distal end of the connector nut 16 to a detent window 26. Each camming surface 36 is defined by a recess 37 formed in the interior bore 17, the recess 37 having a proximal surface 36 which progresses axially smoothly and continuously from the distal end toward the detent window 26 as it extends angularly in the circumferential direction in the bore. The camming surface 36 may be configured as a toroidal surface section in a helical, hyperboloid, parabaloid, or other similar geometric shape.
The recess 37 is provided with a diameter that is sufficient to pass a bayonet pin 25 in freely translating fashion, whereas the bore 17 is provided with a diameter less that sufficient to pass a bayonet pin. Thus the bayonet pin(s) is constrained to translate only within the recess portion 37, or within the detent window 36. The portion 28 of the detent window 36 is disposed to communicate with the recess 37, so that a bayonet pin may translate from the recess 37 into the area of the detent window. The portion 27 of the window 36 extends directly into the bore 17 itself, and defines therewith a window edge which captures the bayonet pin, due to the fact that the bore diameter is less that the diameter of the bayonet pin.
In the preferred embodiment the nut 16 is provided with a pair of detent windows 16 and a pair of camming surfaces 36. With regard to FIG. 6, it is significant to note that each camming surface originates at the distal end of the nut in general alignment with the termination of the other camming surface. Thus, whenever the nut 16 is urged axially toward a mating connector, both the bayonet pins 25 will impinge upon some portion of the camming surfaces, and the axial force applied manually to the nut will be converted by the camming surfaces into a tangential force which urges the nut to rotate and bring the detent windows into engagement with the bayonet pins. This arrangement is advantageous in that it is not necessary to achieve any initial angular alignment between the bayonet connectors, and that mere axial force on the male connector nut creates a tactile feedback sensation that encourages the user to rotate the nut in the proper direction to complete engagement of the connectors.
Another important advantage of the arrangement of the connector nut 16 shown herein is that it may be formed in one step using prior art molding techniques. A single mold cavity having a plurality of slides extendable therein may be used to fabricate the connector 16 as a unitary object, complete with the camming surfaces and the internal flange 21. This feature permits the connector nut to be fabricated in the least expensive manner, saving significant cost over similar prior art devices. It should also be noted that the connector nut of the present invention provides the camming effect described above while also a continuous distal end edge having no gaps or slots therein. The structure thus has the considerable strength of a tubular cylinder.
To disengage the connector described herein, it is necessary only to grasp the connector nut and urge it axially and distally while applying a slight counterrotating force thereto to permit the bayonet pins to be released from the detent portions 27 of the windows 26. Thereafter, the connector nut and the connector assembly may be withdrawn axially without further rotation.
In a further embodiment of the invention, shown in FIG. 8, components that are similar to components described previously are labeled with like reference numerals having a prime (') designation. The male connector assembly includes a body portion and ferrule 11'-23' substantially as described above. It is significant that the bore 17' of the nut 16' is substantially smooth, with the exception of a pair of bayonet pins 46 extending radially inwardly and disposed in diametrical opposition.
The female connector assembly 40 comprises a tubular member dimensioned to be received within the bore 17' of the nut 16', and a bore 41 configured to receive the ferrule 12', lug 14', and a portion of the body member 11'. The exterior surface of the female connector 40 is provided with inset portions 44 which define at least one camming surface 42 extending from the outer end of the connector to a detent recess 43. The camming surface 42 may be configured as a toroidal surface section in a helical, hyperboloid, parabaloid, or other similar geometric shape.
The diameter of the inset portions 44 is sufficient to permit the pins 46 to pass freely, whereas the diameter of the outer surface of the female connector is greater than the inner extent of the pins 46, so that the pins 46 cannot translate about or along the outside of the female connector.
As the two connectors are urged together, the ferrule 12' is inserted in the bore 41, and the nut 16' is received about the female connector. The pins 46 impinge on some portion of the surfaces 42, and the axial force applied manually to the nut will be converted by the camming surface(s) into a tangential force which urges the nut to rotate and bring the detent(s) 43 into engagement with the bayonet pins. As before, this arrangement is advantageous in that it is not necessary to achieve any initial angular alignment between the bayonet connectors, and that mere axial alignment and axial force on the male connector nut creates a tactile feedback sensation that encourages the user to rotate the nut in the proper direction to complete engagement of the connectors.
The embodiment of FIG. 8 exhibits several advantages over the prior art, and over the other embodiments herein. The camming surfaces and detent portions are formed on the exterior surface, so that machining, molding, or other techniques for forming these features are greatly simplified. Moreover, the female connector is customarily installed in a permanent apparatus, such as a laser light source, whereas the male connector is typically provided on a light delivery system and is often disposable. Due to the fact that the female connector of the embodiment is more expensive to manufacture, and the male connector is much less expensive to fabricate, the male connector is more suitable for disposable products, and there are great cost savings in installing the female connector permanently. Indeed, it should be noted that the nut of the male connector may be fabricated of tubular metal stock or the like, and the pins 46 may be formed by punching and bending a portion of the nut side wall inwardly.
It should be noted that in any of the embodiments described herein, there may be provided more than a pair of camming surfaces and associated detent portions. As shown in FIG. 9, for example, the female connector of the previous embodiment may be provided with a quartet of camming surfaces and associated detents, comprised of two diametrically opposed pairs. Each camming surface describes the same axial extent as previously indicated, but in a shorter circumferential arc, so that the amount of rotation required to cause a bayonet pin to traverse along a camming surface to engage a detent is approximately halved. Thus the manual effort required to operate the connector is reduced. It should be noted that only one pair of pins 46 is required to engage the female connector embodiment of FIG. 9, although a quartet of pins could be provided.
Although the connector assembly is described herein with regard to use in connection for optical transmission, it should be noted that the structure and mechanism of the invention may also be adapted for use in electrical or fluid connections. For example, the optical fiber secured to the connector assembly could be replaced with an electrical conductor to transmit electrical signals or electrical power, or with a tubular member to carry fluid such as a liquid or a gas.

Imtech Marine introduces the new multifunctional SeaPilot 76. The variety of standard options in the SeaPilot 76 results in a very complete sea pilot. The SeaPilot 76 can be turned into a fully approved combined sea and river pilot and can be connected to both proportional and on/off valves. This makes the modernized Seapilot 76 a good addition to the Sigma-line of Radio Zeeland. The SeaPilot 76 is suitable for the fishing industry as well as inland, coastal and deepsea shipping.
The SeaPilot 76 is designed with clear graphical displays and easy to use control buttons. A large and clear LCD display presents all functions and information in a well-organized way. The pilot complies with the requirements of the Marine Equipment Directive and the Shipping Inspectorate. By connecting a rate of turn indicator and a FU steering handle, the SeaPilot76 becomes an approved riverpilot system. The SeaPilot76 is suitable for different kinds of steering or rudder systems and heading sensors and has an integrated pilot watch alarm output.
The Seapilot 76, as well as its predecessor SeaPilot75, was developed in close cooperation with Radio Zeeland DMP. The collaboration between Imtech Marine Netherlands (formerly Radio Holland) and Radio Zeeland DMP started 20 years ago.
Imtech Marine will present the SeaPilot 76 at the Europort exhibition, November 5-8 in Rotterdam, stand no. 1124, hall 1.

Rand PaulRand PaulTrump flexes new digital muscle Republicans question Trump's trip to Scotland Hate TV customer service? So does your senator MORE (R-Ky.).
In a video released Tuesday, McConnell is shown signing his filing papers with Paul and state Agriculture Commissioner James Comer (R), who are both Tea Party favorites in Kentucky.
The incumbent has been working to shore up support on his right flank for months. He won Paul's endorsement and has emphasized conservative causes, like the Balanced Budget Amendment. McConnell voted against a two-year budget deal approved by Congress last month.
In the filing video, titled "United," Paul touts McConnell's work as GOP leader in the Senate.
"What he has done, and what allows him to be the most powerful Republican up there is that he can pull people together," Paul says. "United on ObamaCare. United for a Balanced Budget Amendment."
Paul's comments answer another attack McConnell is facing from his left flank, where he's up against Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes: that his leadership abilities have waned and his seniority in the Senate has made him out of touch with Kentucky.
Meanwhile, Lundergan Grimes' campaign sought to contrast her positions on access to childcare with McConnell's, part of an ongoing effort from the campaign to compare the two candidates on the issues.
Her campaign touted the candidate's proposal to offer tax breaks for businesses that provide on-site childcare for working women, up against McConnell's support for Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wisc.) proposed budget, which Democrats say would slash funding for childcare in the states.
--This piece was updated at 4:30 p.m. to reflect Lundergan Grimes' campaign's comments.

Shower after Workout?
It's good habit to take a shower (hot/cold) right after exercise? is there is any short or long term effect?
Posted by khairulanwar hatta on Jul 17, 2012 in Senaman | 3 comments
It's good habit to take a shower (hot/cold) right after exercise? is there is any short or long term effect?
In terms of weight loss, no problem at all …. but if your heart rate is still elavated (post workout), you are still going to feel pretty sticky post shower. Hence, wait for your heart rate to cool down (say 15 minutes) before hitting the shower.
Additionally, it your body is still pretty "hot", a cold shower may shock your lungs, throat etc, making them more prone to infections.
Thats about it 🙂

Yesterday, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts announced three new private jet journeys: Culinary Discoveries, Global Getaway and International Intrigue. The three-week itineraries will include stops in some of the world's most sought-after destinations such as Seoul, Mumbai, Lisbon, Koh Samui, Beijing and Budapest.
Most people are familiar with the traditions and festivities of Chinese New Year. But what some may not realize is that between Asian cultures, the Lunar New Year is celebrated on different days and in various ways. This year, Chinese New Year fell on Monday, February 8, but in India they party it up for five days in October. Tibet's celebrations, which begin on February 22, include dough balls that will tell your loved ones (or enemies) exactly how you feel about them.
We've seen some pretty cool, well-designed villas in our time, but Keemala's accommodations in Phuket might be some of our favorites. Opened in December 2015, the wellness-focused resort was designed by Architect Space and interior designer Pisit Aongskultong. The pair envisioned a property that would blend in with the surrounding Thai jungle and be created as structures that the island's indigenous clans might have once lived in.
Sometimes I wonder if I chose a life of traveling or if it chose me; the age-old "What came first?" question. At five it was El Salvador, at 16 it was all about Costa Rica, and later Spain sealed my love for the world. A plethora of destinations followed over the years. Twenty five years after that first overseas trip, Thailand brought me right back to that same place of awe and discovery.
Around the world, Ritz-Carlton resorts and hotels are known for the elegance, grandeur and exemplary service. But what may be lesser known is that their portfolio also includes a collection of prestigious villas and cottages in spectacular destinations. The brand has placed some of their most unique accommodations in Thailand, China, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Georgia and Puerto Rico.
I've never met anyone who visited Thailand and didn't immediately fall in love with it. Whether you are the type to spend hours sunbathing on the beach or exploring tropical jungles, Thailand is where you should be doing it. Don't know where to go? Try Villa Mayavee on the island of Phuket, because…just look at it!
With the year coming to an end in just seven short weeks, we thought we'd get plans for 2015 started with a look at next year's cruises through Asia. Pairing together places such as Singapore with Bali and Mynamar with Tokyo, we couldn't get enough of all the offerings available next year. We handpicked six of our favorites to share to give you a little bit of wanderlust for the continent filled with ancient wonders, mouth-watering cuisine and a deeply spiritual heritage.
Boasting an impressive resume of 10 esteemed designers including Chris Jones, Joseph Walsh, A-Cero, Graham Lamb and the Campana Brothers, the all-inclusive Iniala Beach House located on Natai beach in Thailand will probably make you cry tears of joy upon arrival. Seriously, we wouldn't lie to you. As the brain child of philanthropist Mark Weingard, the property is made up of three villas and a penthouse suite with a combined total of 10 bedrooms.
It is rare to find a hotel that blends luxury, history and a unique sense of place under one roof, but travelers who venture to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed town of Luang Prabang, nestled at the confluence of the Mekong and Nam Khan rivers, can find all three at Amantaka.
When Soneva Kiri resort says "al fresco dining," they really mean it; no seriously, like in a Swiss-Family-Robinson kind of way. Seated in a private bamboo pod, guests are invited to dine among Thailand's rainforest while strung high above the ground with 360-degree views. In case that wasn't enough, just wait until you watch your personal server deliver your meal via zip-line acrobatics.
It's no secret around here that our Executive Editor has a crush extreme love of travel-by-train excursions. Maybe it's the slow-paced life inside the richly decorated, wood-paneled rail cars, or the hours of conversations you're afforded with other passengers as you pass through beautiful countrysides, either way, there really is something very romantic about locomotive travel today.
Treat yourself to an urban vacation at The St. Regis Bangkok situated right at the heart of this remarkable Thai city. Exquisite nearby restaurants, boutique shopping, and Bangkok's internationally renowned elite businesses, and delectable cuisine are mere moments away for guests.
Just because Starwood Hotels & Resorts already has 21 properties in Thailand doesn't mean there isn't room for more. The Sheraton Hua Hin Pranburi Villas recently opened its doors in Prachuap Khirikhan, frequented by many because of its beautiful coastline and chic resort towns of Hua Hin and Pranburi. The converted and rebranded 55-villa resort is owned by Bangkok-based Honor Business Company Limited, which also owns the nearby Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & Spa.
You probably didnt know you needed a spice expert while vacationing in Thailand, but with so many different Thai flavors to experience, Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Krabi has made them more accessible to travelers with the worlds first Spice Concierge. Through refreshing cocktails, exclusive spa treatments from the internationally renowned ESPA and resort-wide programs, the Thai spice expert will give guests a chance to taste unique flavors and explore the health benefits of the featured monthly spice....

The Naka Island, Phuket may have only been around for a little over a year and a half, but it has quickly made a name for itself among serious luxury-seeking guests. The award-winning property offers everything one could ever want in a beach getaway and then some. Excellent cuisine, service, activities, and great amenities none of which come at the expense of endangering the environment can be found at the resort. The Naka Island maintains strict environmental ethics, ensuring the area's surrounding beauty will be around for generations to come. Located on Naka Yai Island, the property is truly an exceptional escape from the monotony and rigors of travelers' everyday lives.... Read More

NOTRE DAME, Ind. - Mary Theresa Coquillard, 89, passed away peacefully on Monday, Aug. 12, 2013, at Dujarie House at Holy Cross Village, Notre Dame, Ind. She was surrounded by her husband and family members.
Affectionately known as "Mease" to family and friends, Mary Theresa was born in South Bend, Ind., on June 25, 1924, to Bernard John and Helen Holland Voll.
Mary Theresa was educated by the Sisters of the Holy Cross on the campus of Saint Mary's from grade school through college, culminating in a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature from Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, Ind.
On Jan. 21, 1950, Mary Theresa married George Clarke Coquillard in the Holy Ghost Chapel at Saint Mary's College. She and George made their home in South Bend for several years, during which time Mary Theresa was active in the community and was a member of Junior League and the Ladybug Bridge Club. Mary Theresa relished a competitive game of golf and could often be found on the golf course at the South Bend Country Club. A gourmet cook, Mary Theresa delighted in experimenting with interesting new recipes and entertaining family and friends in her home.
George's employment relocated them to several cities including Los Angeles and La Joya, Calif.; Chagrin Falls, Ohio; and Montpelier, Vt. They retired in Punta Vedra, Fla., and eventually returned to South Bend in 2008. Mary Theresa took a keen interest in the cultural treasures of each locality and was a passionate patron of the arts. She enjoyed and supported theater, the symphony, museums and galleries.
Mary Theresa was a benefactor to many people. If she learned of someone needing educational assistance or lacking the means to accomplish a significant goal, she would quietly provide the necessary resources, often anonymously.
As a child, Mary Theresa demonstrated an independent spirit and an ardent sense of adventure, traits that remained constant during her life. An enthusiastic traveler, Mary Theresa and George traveled extensively throughout the United States and around the world, experiencing a rich variety of customs and cultures.
Mary Theresa is survived by George, her husband of 63 years; her brother, William H. Voll; 28 nieces and nephews; numerous extended family members and very special friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, Bernard and Helen Voll, and her sister, Helen Georgina Voll.
The family expresses deep gratitude to the staff of Holy Cross Village for their assistance and many kindnesses over the past five years and to The Center for Hospice Care for their compassionate attention.
Friends may call from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 16, at Our Lady of Holy Cross Chapel, Dujarie House, Holy Cross Village, Notre Dame, Ind.
A Mass celebrating the life of Mary Theresa Coquillard will take place on Saturday, Aug. 17, 2013, at 1 p.m. on the campus of Saint Mary's at the Church of Our Lady of Loretto, Route 933, Notre Dame, Ind. Burial will be at Cedar Grove Cemetery, Notre Dame, Ind.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions are suggested to: The Mary Theresa and Helen Georgina Voll Scholarship, Saint Mary's College, 110 Le Mans Hall, Notre Dame, IN 46556; or The South Bend Museum of Art, 120 S. St. Joseph Street, South Bend, IN 46601.

Mozilla tests Firefox for iOS in New Zealand in preparation for launch
Mozilla has started to publicly show its attempt at bringing Firefox to iOS, with an initial test launch in just one country. The mobile browser has been unveiled in a public preview in New Zealand with expansion to a "few more countries" expected in the coming months, with Mozilla using the limited launch to receive feedback on a number of features before it has a wider release to users in the rest of the world later this year.
Apple Back to School promo goes live in Australia, New Zealand
Apple has launched the Australia and New Zealand editions of its annual Back to School promotion. Qualifying university students, parents, and educational staff are being given gift cards matched to the device they buy; unlike last year, though, the cards are for the Apple Store, rather than for the Mac or iOS App Store. A similar change was made last year for the American Back to School promo.
Apple upgrades Maps Connect, iCloud.com Photos services
Apple has upgraded the iCloud.com Photos app with a couple of new features, users note. The first is a zoom slider for uploaded content. People can also more easily share photos via email, using a new pop-up window on the site. Access to Photos requires activating the iCloud Photo Library beta through iOS' Settings app, and will remove any images on a device that were synced via iTunes.
Apple adds new regions for Flyover, Siri movie showtimes
Apple has added a collection of new locations to its Flyover feature in Maps, and new countries to the list that can access movie listings through Siri. In the former category are Avignon, Biarritz, and Perpignan in France; the Grand Canyon and Meteor Crater in Arizona; Devil's Tower in Wyoming, Dunedin in New Zealand, Royal Gorge in Arkansas, and finally Visby in Sweden. Apple has been slowly updating the number of areas with Flyover support since iOS 6 was released in 2012.
Briefly: Netflix expanding to Australia, Ofcom plans 700MHz changes
Netflix is planning to expand its service to Australia and New Zealand from early next year. Starting from March 2015, the streaming video service will be available in the two countries, complete with 4K video playback with compatible devices, though The Next Web notes the inclusion of "a curated selection" in the announcement points to a more limited TV show and movie collection at launch than in other territories.
Sept. 26 to mark second wave of international iPhone 6 launches
The second group of international iPhone 6/6 Plus launches will happen on September 26, checks at Apple's international storefronts indicate. Some countries discovered so far include Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Taiwan, Turkey, Russia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. The United Arab Emirates will get the new phones on September 27.
Authorities ordered to give Kim Dotcom copies of Megaupload data
Data from the machines seized in 2012 as part of a warrant search on Kim Dotcom's mansion in New Zealand and the home of Bram van der Kolk will be returned soon, on the order of the New Zealand Court of Appeals. It was announced this week that the court has ordered the police to release clones of the devices and computer seized to Dotcom and his second-in-command at Megaupload. It was ordered that the data be released immediately, but could also be released in pieces if it could speed up the delivery.
iCloud sees outage in Australia, New Zealand
iCloud users in Australia and New Zealand have been experiencing outages for about half a day, according to complaints. Most affected people say they can't reach any iCloud functions, and some people complain that iMessage is failing as well. Apple's System Status page has made no mention of the downtime.
Apple hikes App Store prices in Australia, India, Turkey, other areas
Apple is raising iOS and Mac App Store prices in several countries, according to an email memo sent to developers. The hikes will impact Australia, India, Indonesia, Turkey, and South Africa. Apple blames the change on fluctuations in exchange rates, which the company adjusts for on a regular basis.
Dotcom defense stymied, NZ court rules against evidence disclosure
The New Zealand Supreme Court has ruled against Internet maven Kim Dotcom, declaring that US prosecutors did not need to pre-disclose evidence against him in a July extradition hearing. The appeals hearing ruled that the lower court was erroneous in its ruling that demanded disclosure of the evidence. A summary of the evidence has already been provided to Dotcom, and is sufficient for defense purposes at this stage, the judges ruled.

Apple's third-quarter results due July 26
Apple has advised it will be issuing its third-quarter results on July 26, with a conference call to answer investor and analyst queries about the earnings set to take place later that day. The stream of the call will go live at 2pm PT (5pm ET) via Apple's investor site, with the results themselves expected to be released roughly 30 minutes before the call commences. Apple's guidance for the quarter put revenue at between $41 billion and $43 billion. http://apple.co/1oi1Pbm
Twitter stickers slowly roll out to users
Twitter has introduced "stickers," allowing users to add extra graphical elements to their photos before uploading them to the micro-blogging service. A library of hundreds of accessories, props, and emoji will be available to use as stickers, which can be resized, rotated, and placed anywhere on the photograph. Images with stickers will also become searchable with viewers able to select a sticker to see how others use the same graphic in their own posts. Twitter advises stickers will be rolling out to users over the next few weeks, and will work on both the mobile apps and through the browser. http://bit.ly/29bbwUE
French show carries on with iPhones
Following a prolonged power loss in a French TV studio, the crew was able to use a combination of limited studio lighting and a number of iPhones to continue taping the Saturday episode of talk show On n'est pas couché ("We're Still Awake"), using the resulting footage in the first edited episode. The Plus-model iPhones used for the impromptu shoot completion were either iPhone 6 Plusses (which shoot in 1080p) or 6s Plus models (which can shoot in 4K). The decision to use the iPhones to complete the show was made after a power outage at France 2's studio stretched to more than three hours. http://bit.ly/299wqDt
Scrivener for iOS to arrive in late July
For some long-time Scrivener users, to quote Paul Simon, "these are the days of miracle and wonders." As it marks its 10th anniversary in business, developer Keith Blount has announced that the long-awaited iOS version of his creative-writing tool Scrivener is to be submitted to the App Store, following strong praise from beta-testers. The program, expected in late July, will sell for $20 and work with both the iPad and iPhone. When we interviewed Blount last January, he added that Scrivener 3 for Mac would follow along shorty afterwards. http://bit.ly/2901XLE
WhatsApp now handles over 100M calls daily
WhatsApp is celebrating that it is being used for over 100 million calls every day. In a brief notice, the Facebook-owned messaging platform advises the voice-calling feature it rolled out to its users last year now deals with an average of over 1,100 calls initiated per second. Earlier this year, it increased the security of its calls and other messages, by introducing end-to-end encryption on all platforms. http://bit.ly/292HqCX
Adele's '25' album now streaming
Recording artist Adele has "pulled a Kanye" after saying that her current album "25" would not be available for streaming. The seven-month-old record, which has yielded a number of hit singles, is now available for streaming on all the major streaming services, such as Apple Music and Spotify, as of today in most major markets, with worldwide distribution to come. Reportedly, the singer had demanded streaming be limited to paid subscribers -- a condition that has hurt some streamers with artists, who aren't paid royalties for free or trial listens . Apple pays performers its normal royalty rates during its free trial, avoiding the issue -- and having repeated success in both signing up exclusives and placing those exclusives into the top of the charts. http://ti.me/28U7NOu
SanDisk iXpand case has battery, storage
A new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s case from SanDisk appears to be the "holy grail" of accessories: a stylish and protective case that offers both extra storage as well as the option of extra battery power as well. The iXpand Memory case offers either 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB of additional storage incorporated into the case, and an optional add-on battery pack (sold separately) adds up to an extra day or more of charge. Through the associated iXpand app, camera photos and videos can be automatically stored on the extra storage, optionally password-protected, The cost for the case is (in order of storage capacity) $60, $100, and $130. The battery pack's release data has not yet been announced, but the add-on should retail for an additional $30. http://bit.ly/291epHu
