Jaana Na Dil Se Door 4th June 2016 Written Update
The Episode starts with Kailash praising Vividha. Rajendra says fine, I will help you, but for my son's promotion, and for Vividha, she is a great girl, I know she is better than you. He taunts Kailash and asks him to broaden his house walls, as the guy's family is very rich, maybe Bharadwaj also likes to do proposals in rich families. He leaves. Kailash says he is taunting me with my own words, it was bitter, but true. Uma looks on. Kailash says I will break Vividha with Atharv and then Vividha will be getting related to Bharadwaj's son.
Sujata asks Atharv did Vividha slap that guy. He says yes. She says she can do anything with your support. He says if I m not there then, courage should be within, if she depends on anyone, she will lose courage when that person goes away. She asks does your college teach you to talk such big things. He smiles. She says its Vividha's first Ghanghor with us, I was making clothes for her. He says she won't wear this. She asks why. He says I don't know she is with me or not. She says she will be with you, we have seen it in her eyes. He says yes, some day she will be mine, but the waiting can get long. She says you keep waiting, but I will go and give this to Uma tomorrow. He asks her to go and smiles.
Uma, Dadi and Guddi see the sarees and suits for Ghanghor. Kailash talks to Dubey. He then selects a dress for Vividha. He says she will look beautiful when she wears this in Ghanghor function, she should look good, the family is coming to see her, they should like her instantly, don't tell her, I will tell her. Vividha comes and likes other dress. She says I will wear the dress which Papa likes. He says fine, we will buy both, wear the dress tomorrow by your choice, you can wear my choice of dress later. She asks won't you feel bad. He says I can't feel your choice bad. She thanks him. Vividha tells Kailash that some people think you have caged me. He asks who. She says Atharv. He fumes. She talks about Atharv and he gets angry.
He asks where did you meet me. She says I did not meet him, he met me in market, I wanted to tell him that he behaved wrong with you. He says I told you, I will handle this matter my way, I have explained you a lot, no need to meet any loafer on the road, you met him in market, he has kept the challenge and entire Ajmer city knows, what will people say, good family guys don't stop and talk to guys on the road, but come home silently, you should not forget good values, this should not happen again, I will see what I have to, fine. She nods. He goes. She thinks of Atharv's words. Uma looks on worried.
Kailash is sleeping. Uma goes to her room silently at night. Kailash makes her fall and gets angry on her. He switches on the lights and scares her. He asks are you mute, blind or deaf, did you get paralysis…… He says today, Vividha met Atharv again in the middle of the market, if you can't stop her or explain her, why are you here, shall I see business outside home, and shall I also manage children at home, its mother's duty to explain daughters, if you fail to do your responsibility, see what I do then. She cries.
He threatens her and says this is not good for Vividha and you, however Atharv tries, Vividha is my blood, I will not let this happen. He hurts Uma. Next day, Ghanghor preparations are done. Vividha applies mehendi. Dadi asks the girl to apply thin mehendi design to her. Guddi teases Dadi and says Dadi found a new Dada ji for us, that's Ranveer. She asks the girl to make V for Varun on her hand. Dadi argues. Vividha thinks Kailash got annoyed with Atharv's name, I could not tell complete thing. Kailash talks to Dubey on phone. She asks him to have breakfast. He says I m in hurry, I will have food at office. She thinks I have to tell Papa that I slapped that guy, if he knows from somewhere else, he will feel bad. The girl asks Vividha to apply mehendi. Vividha says I have work, I will apply mehendi later. The girl says I heard your hand is working a lot these days, you slapped a guy in the market, by Atharv's saying. Uma and everyone get shocked. Vividha gets tensed. Uma takes Vividha with her. Dadi and Guddi also go along. Uma asks Vividha whats going on, what was that girl saying. Vividha says I was going to tell you, when I went to market then… she tells everything. Uma holds her head. Guddi says you slapped that guy. Dadi says great, you are my blood. Guddi says I can't believe this. Vividha says Atharv was saying so, I got courage and I …… Uma says you know what you did. Guddi says she taught lesson to a loafer, fantastic. Uma scolds Vividha and asks did your Papa teach you this, he has given you some values, you know Atharv wants to marry you, don't you understand its serious matter, you won't go the way Atharv goes, don't talk to him, don't see him, if you try to talk to him, then you can't think what I will do to you, Kailash dislikes your talking to Atharv. Vividha cries. Uma asks her not to tell this to her Papa.
Vividha cries and scolds Atharv. She says I m coward, or anything else, I m not your property that you got after me to change me, your name is not written on me. He makes A on her mehendi and says it will be seen soon.

At this time of polarity and fragile relationships between political groups in our country, we do not need volatile and irresponsible remarks such as those recent ones by U.S. Rep. Paul Broun.
To intimate that President-elect Obama, through a civilian national security force as part of volunteer public service, could become another Adolf Hitler in a Nazi-like environment, not only trivializes the actual Holocaust, but also is insulting to survivors who actually suffered during that singularly horrific period.
Rep. Broun, if you wish to know what it was really like during that time to which you allude, I will gladly invite you to speak with some Holocaust survivors from my congregation who can enlighten you.
A final note: Rep. Broun, while you do not know me, I used to regularly visit your father, state Sen. Paul Broun Sr., of blessed memory, on my rounds when he was at Highland Hills Nursing Home. He never expressed such careless diatribes, and showed respect to all political figures, including those with whom he disagreed. In the future, I hope that you will try to follow in his legacy in your work and words.

Is anyone in the community or at silverstripe working on an iPhone plugin, so that an iPhone would be automatically detected and a streamlined version of the site displayed?
Not sure it warrants a plugin. There are countless iphone sniffing scripts out there. All you have to do is redirect to iphone.mydomain.com, and set up a second homepage in the CMS for domain iphone.mydomain.com. Then just make new templates for all your pages. We do it for all of our clients.
Can you provide an example url of what you have done?
have you optimized the pages, so they are small and load fast over 3G?
It sounds as though you want a mini version of a site to be displayed. I doubt there is going to an actually plugin that will just do the job since SS sites can be extremely extensive. The way in which to detect the header information of the request. Thereafter, be it an iPhone or another other phone (browser) PHP code would be used to perform this detection. Thereafter, a specific CSS file could be included or a content page displayed which would be in accordance to the request that has been modified for mobiles.
Some mobile detectors can be found at:
- http://www.russellbeattie.com/blog/mobile-browser-detection-in-php
- http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/lightweight-device-detection-php
Yup, I have to agree. Simply changing the layout.css file depending on the browser detected would be the simplest way to go, and make the site look, oh so pretty.
I'd love to see an example! Great idea to offer your clients.
Hi UncleCheese,
I not quite following what you mean by "make new templates for all your pages" in this case ?
Do you make new controllers ? for the pages/model as well ?
Could you post some example code ?
Sorry for asking what might seem like a dumb question.

He was asked about possible changes to the make-up of the team in the off-season, and he did not hesistate for one second in saying that some changes need to be made. (Come to think of it, he did say this after saying Artest would be back, but made no mention of Bender). He said he trusted in LB and DW to do what he had to do.
I would be surprised if Pollard, Cro and/or JB are back next year.

Flesh and blood in this week's new movie releases, including The Villainess and The Wound
Matthew Lickona, Scott Marks 12:12 p.m., Sept. 16
Passable soap opera passed off as high and heavy drama. Writer-director Rodrigo García, who charted nine different and differing women in Nine Lives, has here cut down to a mere three. The connection between two of them is immediately clear, mother and child, more exactly the biological mother who at birth gave up the child for adoption thirty-seven years back. Both of these are individualized and unidealized women, two well-defended independents, the older one (Annette Bening) a prickly, persnickety, hypercritical physical therapist who does not make friends easily, or even conversation, and the younger one (Naomi Watts), her mother's daughter even though they have never known one another, a self-possessed, icy, blunt, upwardly mobile attorney — "I'm not in the sisterhood. I'm my own person" — with a penchant for reckless provocation. (Really, though, shouldn't there be some follow-up if she's going to slip off her panties in her neighbor's apartment and stow them in the dresser drawer of his pregnant wife?) The third one, a childless married African-American, has no apparent connection to the others, and although we may be confident that this storyline will sooner or later tie in, it feels in the meantime to be a bit of a drag, a third wheel, not least because the character is the most conventional and least intriguing: a tight-wound woman (Kerry Washington) whose sole fault is her overeagerness to adopt, given that the biological option isn't open to her. To spend our time trying to guess how and when the tie-in will come is to trivialize the movie. Which is to say, it trivializes itself. Jimmy Smits, Samuel L. Jackson, Cherry Jones. 2010.

TOWIE cast snub Lydia Bright's posh 21st to party with Made In Chelsea lot
Some of the TOWIE cast snubbed Lydia Bright's 21st birthday bash to party with their Made In Chelsea rivals at a Walkers crisps launch event.
The blonde reality star sported a new shorter hair do as she celebrated her landmark birthday with a lavish party at Gilgamesh in Camden last night.
And although some of the ITV2 reality show's big names were in attendance, – including love rivals Lauren Goodger, Sam Faiers and Lucy Mecklenburgh – the likes of Joey Essex and Chloe Simms were otherwise engaged.
The ditzy cousins, who are starring in the new Walkers adverts together, worked the red carpet alongside the likes of MIC's Caggie Dunlop and Millie Mackintosh at the Roast Restaurant in Borough Market.
Even TOWIE cast-offs Harry Derbidge and Amy Childs chose to avoid their former co-stars and opted for the Walkers bash instead.
Meanwhile, over in north London, Nanny Pat, Jessica Wright, Mario Falcone et al were joined by Lydia's mother Debbie , who was having a good time without them.
And if her tweet this morning was anything to go by, she's certainly feeling the effects today.
She posted on Twitter: 'Alcohol and Debbie don't mix very well #hangoverfromhell.'
Lydia admitted yesterday that she had no idea what Arg would be treating her to for the big 2-1.
'I'm really lucky now because I get a lot of free clothes and other stuff so when someone buys me a present I like it to be more sentimental, something I can do and have a memory of – such as going to a spa for the weekend,' she told Mail Online.
X Factor reject Katie Waissel also got an invite to the star-studded party, and sported a more under-stated look with darker locks, simpler make-up and a basic leather jacket and jeans combo.

Jax learns Olivia's secret
Ok, how is it Alexis' children keep sneaking out of the house and nobody notices? Time to fire the nanny if you ask me. But I have to say, Nikolas and Molly together - what a great team they make. Molly is this little girl going on 35 and she seems to bring out some zest in Nikolas. It's funny because it's like watching two adults interacting. I especially like how Nikolas talks with Molly as if she'shis equal. Molly reminds me a lot of Nikolas. She's spunky and intelligent and she has a way with words. I like the cousins together. I like them a lot.
I stand corrected. Nikolas and Elizabeth together - wow! I saw some great potential there this past week. My first choice for Liz is Jason. But Nikolas is definitely in the running. I think there's a little something there and I think it's real. They shared another one of those "looks" on the porch. Lucky and the kids better hurry back with that cake and ice cream.
I love Olivia. That being said, I don't understand why she's personally involved with Johnny Z. Isn't Johnny a bad choice for her, given her past (and present) with Sonny? It feels like Olivia will get in too deep with Johnny. If she isn't already there.
Poor Dante/Dominic can't catch a break with the ladies in Port Charles. He seems to like Lulu but she's being cautious. That and her brothers beat the heck out of Dante/Dominic. Then he sort of "scored" with Rebecca. Too bad she passed out on the bed before they got anyplace.
I'm not a huge fan of Rebecca but I give her credit for fessing up to the Q's. She also gets props for intending to tell Nikolas the truth. Rebecca could have simply left town but instead she owned up to her mistakes. I'm glad Edward and Monica don't harbor any ill feelings toward Rebecca. Nikolas - well that's a whole different thing.
Jax learned Olivia had Sonny's baby way back when. It's nice to see Olivia comfortable enough with Jax to confide in him. Not that she had much choice, given he overheard her talking with Kate. I kind of think Carly has some suspicions about Dante/Dominic as well. There's something about the way she looks at him when he interacts with Morgan. I can't put my finger on it and either can Carly. But clearly Jax realized Dante/Dominic is Olivia and Sonny's son. There was something about the look on Jax's face when he saw everyone together at Kelly's. It was as if a light bulb went off when Jax watched Olivia with Dante/Dominic. I'm betting Jax figured it out right then and there.
Last but certainly not least - happy 60th birthday Rick Springfield!!! How is it possible that the gorgeous Rick is 60?! We've all loved Rick as Dr. Noah Drake on GH. I myself have been a fan of Rick's music since the 80's and I've seen him live numerous times. Rick is still making music and touring. He's also getting ready for his "2nd Annual Rick Springfield and Friends Cruise" in November. This year, Rick's guests include Doug Davidson (Paul, Y&R), Brandon Barash (Johnny, GH), and musician, Richard Marx. For more details, visit Rick's official site http://www.rickspringfield.com/

I thought the same thing...
... in regard to Olivia falling for Johnny. Isn't he a mobster like Sonny? Why is it okay for her to be with him, and not okay for her to be with Sonny? Kind of a double standard in my book, n'est pas?
Far as Rick Spriingfield hitting the big 60, two comments:
1) the guy can still rock
2) he looks great!
Besides 60 is the new 30 anyway

Conair Dry N' Straight 1 1/2" Ceramic Straightener Reviews
melts!this iron does dry hair, but the handel heats up so bad that the sealing began to get slushy and it started sticking to my finger. dont get this! — 6 years, 3 months agoKelseaT | 168 reviews
Drys your hair!At first my hair looked really great! It was pin straight and very smooth. After a while it dryed out my hair and gave my split ends (even when i used a protectent spray). The handle gets really hot and burns your hand after a while. also the comb in the middle ripps out your hair. — 6 years, 2 months agorudx0x0 | 1 reviews
Using this is a pain in the tushmy hair gets stuck in it, it doesnt stay hot, doesnt grip hair. it makes my hair break and frizzes it out. Most importantly, it doesnt even straighten, my curly hair was wavy at best after using this for like an hour. — 8 years, 5 months agobeachxbunny | 2 reviews
Awesome StraightnerI bought this straightnew at Walmart for under twenty five bucks. I tried it the first time and would recommend it to anyone. It is the first one i have ever bought and i think it works great. The temp dial has different readings and it heats up very quickly. Cant beat the price either. I went to target and priced the same one and it was over ten dollars more. — 8 years, 11 months agotink2luv | 7 reviews
Good for the price.For the price, it works decently. I can never quite get all of the waves out of my hair, but it's good enough. If you're on a tight budget, it's a good buy. — 8 years, 12 months agoLainaMarie | 2 reviews
Happy with mineI think this straightener does a better job on mostly dry hair. I've used it several times on towel-dried hair, but I wasn't as satisfied with the results. I never have any trouble with hair getting caught in it, and it heats up very quickly. I recommend this to people with fine to medium hair. I don't think it would work very well on thick hair. — 9 years, 3 months agopurplejonquil | 62 reviews

Good straightenerI got this straightener for Christmas and it has beent he best straightener I have gotten so far. — 9 years, 3 months agoNatcat2008 | 191 reviews
Mediocre at best.Very affordable. Heats up quickly. Those are the only two good things that I have to say positively about this hair straightener. It doesn't get hot enough, or STAY hot enough, throughout the entire time you use it. Because the iron doesn't get hot enough, it also does more damage to your hair than good. The pins on the flat iron also can pinch hair in the slots they pins are supposed to fit into,...read more and rip and pull hairs instead of "brush" through as advertised. Invest in a slightly more pricey FLAT iron that heats up close to 400 degrees and stays there. — 9 years, 7 months agoAltithronus | 5 reviews
This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful
Great product, great priceWhen other brands are asking $80 plus, this value-priced product gets the job done. It has all the new technology of the more expensive brands: ceramic, ionic, tourmaline, wet-to-dry, etc. without the heavy price tag. I only use it on dry hair--because it takes too long to dry it with just the iron, and it makes it really flat (too flat for me!) when you start with wet hair. — 9 years, 8 months agoElysia | 4 reviews
This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful
Finally something that worksMy daughter had hair that poofs and frizzes. We spend hours every day to get it straight, that is until we found the Conair Wet/Dry straightener. What a time saver. — 9 years, 9 months agonann1211 | 6 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This

Suspended Killeen Police Department officer Tramel Bracey is suing KPD to overturn an arbitrator's ruling and return to the force.
An arbitrator ruled in favor of KPD Sept. 30, sustaining Bracey's indefinite suspension. Bracey, 32, is seeking reinstatement and back pay because KPD allegedly violated Texas Local Government Code in how it handled his suspension, according to a petition filed Oct. 6 with the 169th District Court.
Bracey's attorney, John Cullar, said KPD was required to provide written and signed complaints to Bracey regarding allegations of misconduct and untruthfulness. Those allegations ultimately led to his suspension in December 2010.
The department violated local government code for peace officers when it disciplined him without giving him written complaints, Cullar said.
The petition states that arbitrator Paula Ann Hughes acted outside of the hearing's jurisdiction when she failed to address the violation.
"By ignoring the applicable law and failing to apply it, the hearing examiner became a policy maker, which is a legislative function and is beyond her jurisdiction," the petition states.
Lawyers for the city and KPD have argued that Bracey's claim is invalid because he was well aware of investigations and charges against him.
Police suspended Bracey in connection with an investigation into a bank account he opened in April 2010 at a First National Bank Texas branch in Harker Heights. The account contained some erroneous information, including the Social Security number of Bracey's son and an address that does not exist.
Bracey has maintained that any errors in the account were accidental, despite some testimony from bank employees who stated he verified the information.
A Texas Ranger filed felony bank fraud charges against Bracey in U.S. district court in December 2010 in connection with KPD's investigation. Those charges were later dismissed.
The same Texas Ranger filed misdemeanor charges of theft of property, secure documents by deception and perjury in connection to the same bank account with the county attorney's office in Belton. Those charges were filed one day before Bracey's June 29 arbitration hearing.
The ranger, Jim D. Hatfield Jr., is a former KPD officer whom Chief Dennis Baldwin specifically requested for an investigation of Bracey.
Hatfield typically works on cases in McLennan County. He did not file any arrest affidavits with the county clerk's office regarding the most recent, pending charges. Bracey's case files only contain a statement signed by Hatfield indicating the charges are true.
Cullar said the continued allegations against Bracey reflect an attempt to railroad his client. Bracey has been reinstated from suspension twice since he joined KPD in 2007. When reinstated in May 2010, officials immediately placed him on paid administrative leave and began investigating him.
"I think it's clear that after they were required to reinstate him, they began to look for anything," Cullar said.
Investigators discovered the banking discrepancy while serving a search warrant at Bracey's house for an unrelated investigation.

Intel Unveils Moorestown and the Atom Z600, The Fastest Smartphone Platform?by Anand Lal Shimpi on May 4, 2010 11:54 PM EST

Moorestown: The Two Chip Solution That Uses Five Chips
Intel calls Moorestown a two-chip solution. That's the Lincroft SoC and the Langwell IO Hub. Intel says there's no architecture limitation for splitting these two up, it was just a way of minimizing risk. You put the bulk of the 3rd party technologies in the Langwell IO Hub and keep the important, mostly Intel controlled components in Lincroft. This is still the first SoC that Intel is going to market with, so splitting the design into two chips makes sense. The followon to Moorestown, codenamed Medfield, will integrate these two once Intel is comfortable.
The 45nm, 140M transistor Lincroft die
Lincroft houses the CPU, GPU and memory controller and is built on Intel's 45nm process. This isn't the same 45nm process used in other Intel CPUs, instead it's a special low power version that trades 6 - 8% performance for a 60% reduction in leakage. The tradeoff makes sense since the bulk of these chips will run at or below 1.5GHz. And by the way, it's now called the Atom Z600 series.
|Transistor Comparison
|Intel Atom Z5xx Series
|Intel Atom Z6xx Series
|NVIDIA Tegra 2
|Manufacturing Process
|Transistor Count
Langwell, now known as the Intel Platform Controller Hub (PCH) MP20, holds virtually everything else. It's got an image processing core that supports two cameras (1 x 5MP and 1 x VGA), USB 2.0 controller, HDMI output (1080p) and a NAND controller that can support speeds of up to 80MB/s. The whole chip is managed by a 32-bit RISC core.
Langwell is a 65nm chip built at TSMC. TSMC has existing relationships with all of the IP providers for the blocks inside Langwell, so making it at TSMC is a sensible move (a temporary one though, with Medfield Intel will integrate all of this).
Langwell (left) and Lincroft (right)
While Lincr, err, Atom Z600 and the Intel PCH MP20 are enough for a traditional system, they are not enough for a smartphone. You need wireless radios, that's one chip for WiFi and one for 3G support. You need something to handle things like power management, charging the battery and controlling the touch screen. That's an additional chip, called Briertown.
We're up to four chips at this point, but you need at least one more. While modern day smartphone SoCs ship with on-package memory, Intel doesn't yet support that. Obviously it's not impossible to do, Marvell, TI, Qualcomm and Samsung do it with all of their SoCs. Look inside Apple's iPad and you won't see any DRAM chips, just a Samsung part number on the application processor package. Intel doesn't have the same experience in building SoCs and definitely not in integrating memory so it's not a surprise we don't have that with Moorestown. Unfortunately this means a smartphone manufacturer will need as many as five discrete chips to support Moorestown.

|SoC Package Size

And now we know why Intel has been showing off its extremely long form factor prototype all this time:

strikeback03 - Wednesday, May 05, 2010 - linkNo, I think he is asking for Windows 7, not Windows Phone 7. WHich I can see being useful on a tablet, but not at all on a phone. It would take so much effort to turn the standard version of Windows 7 into something usable on a phone that I would imagine if x86 does take off in smartphones Microsoft would be better off just making a completely new OS that can run windows programs. Reply
logdrum - Saturday, November 20, 2010 - linkThere are Moorsetown tablets running Windows 7, As long as the chipset has a PCI bus Windows 7 heck even Windows 2003 server shuld install. The smart phone do not have a PCI bus therefore you cannot install Windows 7 Reply
logdrum - Saturday, November 20, 2010 - linkIt is not a limitation of x86. Windows needs a PCI bus to install and run. There is no PCI bus in Intel embedded systems or ARM for that matter. Having said that you can install VMware on the Linux OS and install Windows as a Virtual Machine. Some people even say hacking the firmware of the embedded hardware to fake a PCI bus so Windows would install. It could be done. Take one of those WindRiver classes on fastboot and kboot and maybe you could make it happen. Reply

arnavvdesai - Wednesday, May 05, 2010 - linkI think getting 3 out of 5 will be very hard for Intel, especially Apple because that company has sunk so much of its own money into chip IP. Apple is not content with just getting the best hardware out there in ARM world but wants to actually design the chip around its own OS so I dont see them using the Atom series.
Intel says Win7CE & Win8CE are both out so that leaves them in a bad place. However, Microsoft is working on a micro OS kernel inside its labs called Menlo( I am not sure about the name) which Intel could try and effectively market to. Basically in Menlo Microsoft is trying to shrink NT to super small size and footrpint. Reply

geniekid - Wednesday, May 05, 2010 - linkWould it be possible to leverage Moorestown in a way that yields 2x the battery life with the same performance as today's top end smartphones? Most 3GS/N1 users today would rather have more battery life than HD playback ability. Unfortunately, as I think about it, I believe that the battery sucking features of the phone are the peripheral devices - wifi/3g radio, camera, display, things which are outside the scope of Moorestown.

Mike1111 - Wednesday, May 05, 2010 - linkIf the Z600 only support 1024x600 or higher, how come the Aava reference platform has 800x480?
And even though I think the performance is very good, Z600 is still too big to compete in the Smartphone market (3-4 chips instead of 1)? I don't see how that could work with something as small as the iPhone 4th-gen's mainboard, which is incredible tiny.
Also Intel talks about combining Lincroft and Langwell into one chip, but no official word on memory in the same package? Only Anand speculates about it.
But if they Intel can integrate at least these three chips into one package with Medfield and offer some additional improvements plus @32nm, and have actual Medfield smartphones on the shelves by the holiday season 2011, Intel can finally start to compete in the smartphone market. Reply

SALT LAKE CITY — Decades after he was enrolled as a student at LDS Business College, Elder Russell M. Nelson received the college's highest honor and addressed graduates in the Tabernacle on Temple Square during the school's commencement services Thursday. This year marks the school's 125th year of operation with a graduating class of 486 graduates from more than 70 different countries.
"It is true that I was once enrolled as a student at LDS Business College," said Elder Nelson, of the Quorum of the Twelve for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "But I did not qualify for a diploma. So you graduates are ahead of me. You received your diplomas here while you are still young."
Elder Nelson, this years Distinguished Alumnus Award recipient, enrolled at the LDS Business college in 1941 to learn Gregg shorthand. Although he did not complete a degree at LDS Business College, the skills he learned as a student helped him in different employment opportunities and throughout his life.
"Today it seems somewhat ironic that these graduation exercises bare the designation, 'commencement exercises,'" he said. "Commencement means to begin or to start, not to finish. Actually, commencement is a good term, because you are literally just beginning. Today is truly the first day of the rest of your life. Today is a hinge-point in your own life history."
Elder Nelson spoke to the graduates about the importance of goal setting.
"This is a perfect time to set your priorities in order and make certain that you move in the right direction," he said. "You don't want to be like the man who climbed the ladder of success only to find that it was leaning against the wrong wall."
It is the efforts an individual makes to become — rather than on tasks to do — that are important, Elder Nelson said.
"You will have goals," Elder Nelson said. "Some of those goals are great, some are greater and one is greatest."
Great goals relate to temporal attainment, such as passing tests and finishing courses to eventually receive a college diploma.
Greater goals, Elder Nelson said, relate to the development of attributes of one's character and are important in an individual becoming who they ought to become.
"Heading the list of greater goals would be the attribute of love, including its related qualities of kindness, compassion, courtesy, civility and mercy," he said.
The greatest goal, he said, is the goal of eternal life.
"One goal, and one goal alone, should become your greatest goal," he said. "What is that? That goal is the goal of eternal life. That goal is God's goal. That goal is God's glory."
Individuals achieve the greatest goal by keeping the commandments of God and enduring to the end.
"My beloved brothers and sisters, on this day of commencement I wish you well," Elder Nelson said. "Pursue your goals, great, greater and greatest, to the end that you may qualify for exaltation and eternal life in the presence of your Heavenly Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, with your families."
LDS Business College President J. Lawrence Richards also spoke, encouraging graduates to seek after good things.
"Take your LDS Business College education and, in a world with ever-declining morals, integrity and ethics, we charge you to stand," Richards said. "Stand for the qualities and character traits that make you unique in all the world and truly valued by those who can still tell the difference between the norms of the day and lasting qualities of character and leadership."

Rihanna Chanel Paris Fashion Week
Love It Or Hate It? Rihanna at Paris Fashion Week
It's so much fun to watch all the ways Rihanna comes up with to wear her short haircut. I loved her piecey bangs at the Grammys, but it's nice to see the sophisticated look she sported at the Chanel fashion show. I also like that she has kept her makeup simple and light to show off her amazing skin. What do you think?

Do you really use vegetable oil? I know it's the cheapest oil, but it's the worst oil for you.

@ Anon: I used Canola Oil and they turned out fine; if that suits you better. I don't use Vegetable Oil anymore either. Btw, I did make them and they are good 🙂

way too salty, had to add sugar to cut the salt in the batter… 1/2 or even 1/4 tsp of salt is all that is needed. will try with applesauce next time to cut the oil.

Radiohead for Splendour In The Grass 2012?
Radiohead have been confirmed as the headliner for Fuji Rock 2012, adding weight to this week's buzz that the band will bringing their King Of Limbs tour to Australia sooner rather than later.
Despite rumours emerging earlier this week that Thom Yorke and co will be headed to New Zealand in November, the band's announcement on Fuji Rock 2012 – alongside the previously confirmed Stone Roses – also makes them a chance for Splendour In The Grass.
Last year Splendour shared nine bands with Fuji Rock and three with the other major festival of the Japanese summer – Summersonic – but when FasterLouder spoke to Splendour organiser Jess Ducrou in 2011 she revealed that the relationship between the three festivals is likely to be even closer in 2012. "We've always had a light dialogue on dates and so on," she explained, "but interestingly this year we have started talking more with them and I think that will really benefit everyone."
Ducrou also revealed that booking the lineup has become a year round job. Coldplay contacted Splendour during the 2010 festival to begin negotiations for this year's headline set and Ducrou revealed that the plans for the 2012 lineup had begun three months before Kanye and Coldplay had hit the stage at this year's festival. "We're already talking about next year 15 months out from the festival," she told FL. "That's not just headliners, that's from a broad range of acts including acts that we approached this year that couldn't do it but want to try and fit it in next year. It's becoming a never ending job."
Hey it may only be January, but when the Splendour rumours are this juicy it's hard not to get a little bit excited.
Update: Splendour In The Grass have dispelled Radiohead and Stone Roses_ rumours tweeting:
Re the speculation about Radiohead @ SITG this year, we'd like to officially dispel these rumours, unfort they're not playing Splendour 2012
And while we're here… brace yourselves… ditto for The Stone Roses, they won't be playing Splendour 2012 either :-(
Sad Face indeed!

Jessica Springsteen's last name may be synonymous with rock-and-roll royalty, but the 22-year-old daughter of Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa is paving her own career path — and it's a fashionable one. Jessica stars as Gucci's new Equestrian ambassador and is opening up to Editorialist magazine about her role and her famous family.
Courtesy Editorialist
In the shoot, Jessica poses on her family's 300-acre horse farm in Colts Neck, New Jersey, as she poses in a variety of all-American looks (and shows off her impeccable riding form). She opens up about her early years traveling the world with her dad and the E Street Band.
"When we were little, my brothers and I were always on tour," the brunette model shared. "We'd have to wear those big headphones the entire concert and go backstage halfway through the show to take naps."
Her famous dad also stopped by the shoot to give his daughter some coaching. "You're a tiger, Jess," he quipped. His favorite look? The biker jacket seen in the photo below, of course! "She's bringing the rock," he said.
Courtesy Editorialist
Jessica's parents have always been on hand to show their support. "They've been giving me the same advice my whole life: Follow your passion," she said.
And right now, the star's passion involves riding horses and her partnership with the Italian label, which just introduced its fourth equestrian-themed collection, including black blazers, saddle pads and more, all featuring her initials, J.R.S. "Gucci is all about strength and confidence," Jessica said. "Those are the two most important characteristics as an equestrian."
Adds Gucci's Creative Director Frida Giannini, "Jessica is a great horsewoman. She brings the elegant, dynamic spirit of Gucci alive."
What do you think of the Gucci x Jessica Springsteen collection? Are you a fan of the shoot? Share your thoughts below.

Overall, our third quarter rebased growth reflected our best top-line performance since Q3 2010. Rebased revenue growth was largely powered by western Europe 9 and Chile, each of which delivered growth of 7% in the quarter, while our Central and Eastern European ("CEE") operations reported a rebased decline of 1%, which is generally consistent with recent quarters. Our western European operations of Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Switzerland generated rebased revenue growth of 11%, 6%, 5% and 5%, respectively. Of particular note, our German, Dutch and Swiss businesses each realized their best quarterly rebased revenue growth of the year, with our German operation achieving its best result since we acquired Unitymedia back in 2010.Operating Cash Flow As compared to the corresponding prior year periods, OCF increased 5% to $1.2 billion and 7% to $3.6 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Our OCF growth reflects the positive impacts of acquisitions and, to a lesser extent, organic growth. This growth was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency changes. Adjusting for both FX and acquisition effects, our year-over-year rebased OCF growth was 5% and 4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Our western European operations delivered quarterly rebased OCF growth of 8%, driven largely by strong performances in our German and Belgian operations, which reported 12% and 8% rebased OCF growth, respectively. In addition, both our Dutch and Swiss businesses posted healthy rebased OCF growth in Q3 of 6% and 4%, respectively, with our Dutch market posting its highest growth to-date in 2012. Similar to recent quarters, our rebased OCF growth was partially offset by both our Chilean and CEE operations, which generated declines of 7% and 3%, respectively. Of particular note, our Chilean mobile roll-out due in part to its early success in generating sales volumes, resulted in an incremental OCF deficit in Q3 2012 that was $15 million higher than the rebased OCF deficit incurred during the same period in 2011. Adjusting for the impact of Chilean mobile, LGI's consolidated year-over-year rebased OCF growth rate would have increased to 7% for Q3 from our reported 5%.

Every single month I eagerly await the arrival of the latest issue of Car and Driver, which is by far my favorite automotive publication. It generally arrives at Autogeek on the 1st or the 2nd of every month. Sometimes I simply can't wait so I'll head up to the local book store towards the end of the month hoping that a careless employee didn't follow the embargo and accidentally put next month's issue out early. It's kind of exciting because when that happens, I get to read about the newest SL63 AMG or see spy shots of the 2014 Corvette before anyone else.
The same thing can be said for working at Autogeek and getting to test out the latest and greatest car care products before anyone else gets their hands on 'em. Sure, getting to test a new product before everyone else is neat, but what's even better is that I get to write about it. The key word is write, not brag. Don't get frustrated just yet, as I only show off products that are in stock so feel free to click "add to cart" after reading about the latest and greatest product from CarPro Innovative Nano Coats in this review.
CarPro Dlux Coating
Dlux, the newest car care product from CarPro, is a semi-permanent coating designed to restore, protect and enhance all exterior plastic and rubber surfaces. Plastic and rubber surfaces treated with Dlux will retain their factory appearance wash after wash. What the original Cquartz did for your vehicle's paint, Cquartz Dlux will do for your vehicle's exterior plastic and rubber surfaces.
This is what the front bumper plastic trim looks like on your typical daily driver. Dull, faded and lifeless. Cquartz Dlux will inject new life into this plastic trim in a couple simple steps.
In order for Cquartz Dlux to form a strong bond to the surface, it should be thoroughly cleaned first with a plastic-friendly all purpose cleaner or degreaser. I've found that Detailer's Cleanse-All Exterior Cleaner is ideal for use before applying trim restorers as it deeply cleans the surface. Spray on, let it sit for a minute, and wipe off using a microfiber towel.
What's included:
Cquartz Dlux includes a blue sponge applicator and four suede microfiber cloths. Simply wrap one of the supplied suede microfiber cloths around the blue sponge applicator and you're ready to apply Cquartz Dlux.
Cquartz Dlux is designed to be applied thin. To say a little bit goes a long way is an understatement.
Application is simple:
Wipe on desired surface in straight line motions, slightly overlapping each time. Reapply as needed.
Cquartz Dlux restores a like-new factory appearance to exterior plastic and rubber surfaces. It's not greasy, it dries to the touch, and it has no sheen.
Give your vehicle's exterior plastic and rubber trim a like-new, factory appearance with CarPro's latest innovation, Cquartz Dlux.

I love Halo, I have played it since the beginning, even though I may not have had Xbox Live back then. Marathon is also a pretty good game. Thank You Bungie! For the best games and Recon Armor. Also thanks for the early access to the Halo: Reach Beta!This account was hacked and I now have a new account.
A remake of Boarding Action. Only has three levels though. As you fight and the night goes on the level will get DARKER!! This map is playable with all game types. This map has many things fixed on it like having longer floor were the teleporters are. And there are a lot less holes to jump through and get out of the map. Thank you for all of your comments.[Edited on 06.07.2009 6:14 PM PDT]

Football: Playoffs, rivalry on the line Thursday
October 24, 2012
Now, strangely, it comes to this.
The Douglas High football team travels to Carson High Thursday for a 7 p.m. game that will determine who keeps playing into the postseason and who will see their season end.
It's a far cry from earlier in the season, when it appeared Thursday night's game would ultimately decide the Sierra League champion.
Douglas (3-5, 0-3) went 3-1 to open the year, beating High Desert League powers Reno and McQueen to rise to No. 1 in the Northern Division I rankings. Carson (4-4, 0-3) opened up 4-1, beating Reed and Reno.
Then league play opened up and both teams, for various reasons, saw their success dry up.
Douglas was gashed on defense in a 57-43 loss to Galena, which has since clinched the Sierra League title and Damonte Ranch escaped with a 47-46 win on a controversial series of plays at the end of the game.

Then the Tiger defense had its best night of the year against Manogue, but the Tigers' high-octane offense slowed down, getting held to a season low two-touchdowns in a 37-21 loss (the Douglas defense added a late touchdown). Complicating matters, Michael Nolting – the school's all-time leader in both passing and total offense –was knocked out of the game with an apparent concussion.
Carson, on the other hand, suffered its own last-second heartbreaks after missing a last-second field goal vs. Damonte Ranch and after getting a late touchdown called back on a penalty against Manogue.
In between those losses, Galena steamrolled the Senators 42-0.
"Carson has had some rough spots, mostly due to injury," Douglas coach Ernie Monfiletto said. "The kids starting now are a little different than they had at the beginning of the year. At times they have struggled like us. We are very similar in that regard."
Now, while the stakes for the annual rivalry showdown are among the highest they've ever been.
"The opportunity to go to the playoffs will present itself, but I think we have the same goal in mind regardless of what is at stake, and that is to beat the Carson Senators," Monfiletto said. "I just believe if you have a rival, it needs to be your main goal to beat your rival.
"That's our goal, we want to put ourselves back in the win column."
The rivalry has slanted back in Carson's favor over the past three seasons after Douglas rattled off seven consecutive victories over the Senators between 2002 and 2008.
Carson won the 2009 meeting in Carson City 34-6 with the Sierra League title on the line, and then escaped on a last-second field goal in both 2010 (16-13 in overtime) and 2011 (31-29). Carson leads the all-time series 46-21-3.
"We've suffered a number of heartbreak situations with Carson the past couple of years, but the kids are intent on reversing that," Monfiletto said. "There is a great maturity among the kids. We saw great growth defensive against Manogue. Although we stepped back on offense, I'm confidence the offense will get back on track this week. It we can put the two things together, we can compete with anybody."
While Carson is coming in off the loss to Manogue on Friday with just three days to prepare for Douglas while the Tigers are coming off a bye-week.
"It (the bye) can work one of two ways if you aren't winning," Monfiletto said. "It can belabor the fact, or it can give you an opporunity to regroup. I firmly believe the kids have regrouped. Their whole heart is into beating the Carson Senators."
The game presents contrasting styles in virtually every facet of the game.
Carson averages only 283.6 yards per game on offense while the Tiger defense has given up an average of 439.5 yards per game. The Senators have only scored three touchdowns on offense during all of league play, while the Douglas defense, in one of its better efforts of the year, surrendered four touchdowns to Manogue alone.
The Senators employ a varied run game with five ball carriers who have at least 20 carries and 100 yards. Sophomore Colby Brown has led the way with 111 carries for 628 yards and five touchdowns.
Carson can also run two different quarterbacks in. Junior Garrett Schafer has taken the majority of the snaps and completed 48 percent of his passes for 941 yards. Senior Matt Nolan has completed 19 of 38 passes for 195 yards. He generally lines up in the slot, giving the Senators a variety of wildcat options. He's carried 48 times for 196 times and caught 15 passes for 135 yards. Fullback Joey Thurman is the team's top receiver with 26 catches for 453 yards.
Conversely, Douglas' offense has been the most potent in Northern Nevada all year, rolling up 472.5 yards a game while featuring the most prolific passer (Nolting) and rusher (Conner Peterson) in school history. Senior wide receiver Dusty Fisher is within striking distance of taking over the school records for career receptions and career receiving yards.
The wildcard will be whether or not Nolting is cleared to play coming off the injury. He is completing 74 percent of his passes on the season with 2,011 yards and 20 touchdowns. He's also run for 409 yards and six touchdowns.
Wes Hundley got his first extended varsity action against Manogue in Nolting's absence and completed two passes for 33 yards, carrying an additional seven times for 36 yards.
Senior running back Conner Peterson has been all over the field for the Tigers, running for 1,173 yards and 14 touchdowns with a 6.3 yards-per-carry average. He's also completed a touchdown pass and is the team's second leading receiver with 28 catches for 279 yards and two touchdowns. Dusty Fisher had 60 catches for 1,090 yards and 14 touchdowns.
Carson has been strong on defense, giving up 316.57 yards and 25.1 points per game.
"They play really good defense," Monfiletto said. "Bob Bateman was our coordinator for a long time and he's back home at Carson now. He does a great job with prep, figuring out tendencies, what we like to do, and coming up with ways to attack it. They run a pretty strong four-man front. It'll be a challenge."
Carson has been to the regional playoffs in each of the last three seasons while Douglas has not missed the playoffs since 2000, a stretch of 11 consecutive qualifications. One of those streaks will end Thursday night.

Some notice that their acne is magnified post pill and can increase in intensity. I am curious to know if any ladies out there have successfuly quit the pill and their skin goes back to normal after hormones "level out". Or if their acne has subsided/lessened with time passing without turning to any other forms of medication. I would really love to hear some positive messages because at this moment I am feeling quite down about this. Thanks so much and best of luck to all you out there struggling.

WASHINGTON The Congressional Dietary Supplement Caucus, in cooperation with the Council for Responsible Nutrition and the Natural Products Association, held a briefing on Capitol Hill last week to discuss the important role of dietary supplements in the ongoing wellness and prevention conversation.
The briefing included discussion of how supplements fit into the shifting of a system based on diagnosis and treatment to one of prevention and wellness. With the passage of healthcare reform, the wellness and prevention paradigm is gaining added attention as Americans look for ways to stay healthy longer — and dietary supplements are one of the tools consumers should consider.
"Supplements used properly help prevent disease and promote good health as part of an overall healthy lifestyle," commented Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo. "Scientific evidence strongly suggests that the use of daily dietary supplements would be an effective way to address nutritional gaps" in deficient populations, he added.
The luncheon briefing featured speaker David Grotto, a registered dietician and president of Nutrition Housecall, who discussed the important role of dietary supplements as part of a well-rounded nutrition program, particularly for those who don't get all their nutrients from food alone. "We know that a healthy diet and lifestyle, along with appropriate dietary supplements, can really make a difference in helping to mitigate" health problems, such as heart disease, cancer and stroke, Grotto said.

You're asking it to make a bandpass filter with a normalized width of 0.0014 using only 5 coefficients--that's too tight with too few coefficients and will *always* result in problems. That k value there is supposed to be the gain, which is almost 0 (140dB of loss!). If you look at a plot of the transfer function you're generating in MATLAB, you'll see it's complete garbage. Using sig.buttord() and moving the stopband 0.0001 off of the passbands edges, 5db attenuation in the passband and 30db in the stop, I get an order of 26, which is >>5. The code for that is: Wn = np.array([F_inf F_sup])/(Fs/2) sig.buttord(Wn, np.array([Wn[0]-0.0001, Wn[1]+0.0001]), 5, 30) If we make the passband a bit less crazy: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt z,p,k = sig.butter(5, [0.3, 0.4], btype='bandpass', output='zpk') b,a = sig.zpk2tf(z, p, k) w,h = sig.freqz(b, a) plt.plot(w, 10.0 * np.log10(np.abs(h))) plt.grid() plt.ylim(-40, 3) You get a nice plot of the filter response, which is as expected for only order 5. As for the other things, it appears that there is no equivalent for SOS. Ryan -- Ryan May Graduate Research Assistant School of Meteorology University of Oklahoma

In 2010, as an extension of the American Hospital Association's (AHA) Health For Life: Better Health. Better Health Care roadmap for improving America's health care system, the AHA's Long-Range Policy Committee (LRPC) focused on the "Wellness" pillar by identifying emerging, successful practices in hospital employee health and wellness.
The Committee has developed a comprehensive report, entitled, A Call to Action: Creating a Culture of Health. This report is a bold call to action for hospitals to be leaders in creating a culture of health.
The report provides:
- Background on health and wellness programs and how they are incentivized by the Affordable Care Act.
- Findings from a groundbreaking AHA survey of 876 hospitals on their employee health and wellness activities.
- Examples of hospital best practices, ranging from a smaller critical access hospital to large integrated health systems.
- Seven "how-to" recommendations for the field. These recommendations provide goals as well as action steps and examples of how hospitals can meet these goals.

The treatment was excellent from what I can recall, I had it done in a hospital with one night stay, I did it because my skin was extremely loose.
I suspect belly button is infected. Help
I don't think this is normal: I had a Tummy Tuck done 10 days ago and there's some clear discharge. That small hole with the yellow inside scares me. I don't have fever, but I suspect it's an infection. I'm really worried. I have been putting some neosporin in the last two days but it feels like it's getting worse. Please help!

check out website: www.prometheusbooks.com
In case you thought the title, 'Tribal Science', was all to do about your local witchdoctor and then the sub-title, 'Brains, Beliefs And Bad Ideas', actually confirms this. Granted, there are no shaking chicken bones onto the ground or rain dances, but as author Mike McRae shows with this book, it is all too easy to misinterpret the information we receive by doing some simple tests on yourself. If it took a long time to believe in science than witchdoctors, then the act of how we can deceive ourselves is still alive and healthy today as this book illustrates and even its author isn't immune.
Take the opening page of the introduction. I wasn't entirely sure we'd got off to a good start when Australian McRae says he was in Cornwall in the middle of winter and the beaches were quiet. We British might be crazy when it comes to the weather but the majority sensibly stay at home in that season unlike the ozzies where it is still tropical.
Interestingly, areas of Science Fiction do come up in McRae's chapters. He sees SF as our replacement for mythology, which I suppose is right to a degree but doesn't explain why there are more readers of fantasy which still uses olde world mythology, although grant you there are fewer films using that genre.
It's interesting to read him describing the typical image of the lab-coated wild-haired scientist stereotype in the public eye. On some levels, this isn't too far from the truth from my own experience. They do exist although often out-numbered by the ordinary looking scientists but they are also more of a wildcard element providing wilder ideas which often can be backed up with data. McRae points out there are fewer 'Eureka!' moments than, to quote Asimov, 'That's funny...' moments where research finds something different. If anything, it is these latter things that shouldn't be ignored because the likes of penicillin wouldn't have been discovered without them.
McRae using Kenneth Arnold's UFO sighting of how journalist boned his report so that all the public would associate with it was 'flying saucers' to my mind shows how people themselves bone the subjects themselves. We might see word-bytes as something relatively new with the Internet but from this, it looks like we've been doing it far longer as a means to remember information. Maybe this should be a call for more precise information although I doubt if this would change human nature to abridge, rightly or wrongly, what it tries to remember. As we get more sophisticated, maybe we'll keep the shortness but use more complex words or expand differently in our heads.
Equally interesting is how the human desire to find patterns in anything can also be wildly out of kilter when we don't have all the available facts or why gamblers think they can beat the odds at anything. Then again they measure their successes far more than their losses.
Something I wish McRae had explored more is why some people can remember what they were doing accurately when certain events happened and others can't. Unlike McRae, I can remember exactly where I was when Apollo 11 landed on the Moon as well as what I was doing when there was an announcement of Princess Diana's death. For the record, my parents had just turned the Sunday morning TV on in the middle of a newscast during breakfast and I came into the room and queried why the princess was being discussed in the past tense. People do remember events simply because they carry stronger memories than the more mundane day-to-day activities of life.
McRae uses the Loch Ness Monster as an example of people being misled while at the same time not quite getting his facts right at the same time. The immediate area of Loch Ness wasn't highly populated back in the 1930s and still isn't. Indeed, it wasn't until then that a proper road was built there and the reports of a kelpie living there surfaced (sic). Whether there's a creature in the Loch or not is irrelevant to not checking such information.
Looking over this review, I've hit on mostly the bad points where for the most part, McRae does talk a lot of sense on how there needs to be stronger clarity of science and its understanding by the public. If anything, McRae is making the same mistakes that the general public might make as well, like assuming they might also have his own limitation when it comes to recalling event details. Whether this was intentional or not isn't revealed in the text but does suggest no one is immune.
His logic tests were a lot of fun and you learn a lot from them as to how you can be misled by your first choices than thinking through the conclusion. I'd love to see a book investigating this further if for no other reason than it could be used to cultivate better thinking from readers which can't be a bad thing.
I do think you'll learn something from this book. I suspect also that McRae learnt a lot from writing it. If you think you're logical and sensible, this might make you think. I might not fall for all the traps in this book and I hope McRae will take some time to observe these areas in the community. Don't rattle the chicken bones.

Woman Injured After Shots Fired Into Two Tulsa Apartments
Tulsa Police were called out to Meadows apartments after a report of shots being fired and a woman injured, Tuesday, January 1.
Around 8:15 p.m. police were called out after a unknown male shot around 7 to 9 shots into two apartments. According to police, it seemed like the suspect was running past the buildings while firing into the windows.
A 23-year-old woman was transported in stable condition to St. Francis Hospital in Tulsa. The woman was bleeding from the forehead, but she was only grazed by either the bullet or glass fragments.
According to police, the shots came from a small caliber handgun, which caused minor injury.
There was at least one child in the apartment with the woman.
Police do not have a suspect or a motive at this time.

The inescapable Internet turns thirty
As 1982 drew to a close, even the most enthusiastic of geeks was struggling to get excited by the standardising of the ''transmission control protocol''. Yet the move that took place 30 years ago to a new system for connecting computers was to spawn the pounds 1 trillion internet industry, change the course of the music business forever, reinvent banking and fundamentally change how we communicate with each other. The internet, originally short for "internetworking", was first set up to connect research and academic institutions, but 1983 saw the moment when individual networks were connected securely and in such a way that the failure of a single component did not bring down the whole "net". What we are familiar with today, however, is the world wide web, invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee. Although the web relies on the internet, it is essentially a service that runs over the top of it, connecting billions of different pages via links. The internet is the hardware underneath, from cables that are occasionally inadvertently cut by trawlermen to enormous ''switches'' that route information. Indeed, the growth of the internet, which is expected to be worth at least pounds 2.5 trillion by 2020, continues at breakneck pace. It already connects more devices than there are people on Earth, even though just 2.4 billion of the world's 7 billion population is online. But as more of them do hook up, the world 30 years from now is likely to look even more different than 1983 does to us today.
The birth of the internet Late in the evening of October 29, 1969, a seminal moment took place that laid the foundations of the internet. As described in Gregory Gromov's Roads and Crossroads of Internet History, Leonard Kleinrock, a pioneering computer science professor at the University of California and his small group of graduate students hoped to log on remotely to a Stanford university computer. "They would start by typing 'login', and seeing if the letters appeared on the far-off monitor. We set up a telephone connection between us and the guys at the lab," Kleinrock said in an interview. "We typed the L and we asked on the phone, do you see the L? Yes, we see the L, came the response. We typed the O, and we asked do you see the O? Yes, we see the O. Then we typed the G, and the system crashed." But as Gromov observes, "a revolution had begun". By 1981, that two-computer network had expanded to 213, known as ARPANET, and linked University College London and a few European locations to what remained a largely American network. On January 1 1983, a mandate by America's Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) that all computers on the network use that same "transmission control protocol", or TCP/IP, meant that a global, open and easy to connect to network was born.
"Google, quickly joined by Facebook, remains the pre-eminent web giant, largely thanks to the advertising revenue that it generates from showing commercial content next to search results."Share on facebookTweet this
Weaving the web Sir Tim's radical improvement to the internet was the idea that pages of information and pictures could also contain links to other pages, allowing users to surf from one to another without hindrance. His decision that this should not be a proprietary service, attracting fees or costs for users, meant the open web that we know today could exist. It also gave birth to vast web servers, housing the information that users wished to access and which now occupy warehouses around the world. Indexing that information first took place manually, until Google's new algorithm automated the task of crawling the web. Google, quickly joined by Facebook, remains the pre-eminent web giant, largely thanks to the advertising revenue that it generates from showing commercial content next to search results. For the first time, advertising was matched to a user's known interests. Today, however, the web remains a disruptive force that is likely to cause the closure of 5,000 shops between now and March alone.
