2014 Audi S4 Quattro Manual - WR TV POV Test Drive 1/2
This week we row our own gears in a manual gearbox-equipped Audi S4
Quattro. This Misano Red example comes equipped with the Black Optic
package, which includes 19-inch wheels, summer tires and high-gloss black
appearance tweaks.
The S4's 3.0-liter supercharged V6 churns out 333 horsepower and 325
pound-feet of torque and is matched to a close-ratio six-speed transmission
with a dual mass flywheel, which then routes the grunt to a Quattro sports
differential, making for quite an entertaining drive

2014 Audi RS5 vs 2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 507 Coupe! - Head 2 Head Ep. 51
On this episode of Head 2 Head, Jonny Lieberman sets out to discover which
German hot-rod-personal-luxury-coupe is the best you can get. The 507 Coupe
is the last iteration of the W204 C63. With the exception of the very
limited-run Black Series, it's the best C63 that AMG has ever done. Under
its hood sits a hand-built, 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V-8 good for 507
horsepower. What
more do you want? Perhaps something more high-tech, and that's where the
Audi RS5 comes in. The sexy coupe from Quattro GmbH in Neckarsulm features
a 4.2-liter V-8 that spits out 450 hp. That¹s less power than the 507
Coupe makes, true, but the Audi also features AWD, a dual-clutch
transmission, bigger wheels and tires, plus a trick torque-vectoring rear
differential. Which one is quicker? Which one is more fun to drive? Which
one is best? Watch and find out!

On this episode of Head 2 Head, Motor Trend's Jonny Lieberman pits the 2013
Volvo S60 T6 AWD R-Design against returning contender, the 2013 Audi S4.
Before hitting the road, the engine placements of both competing sedans are
compared against segment contemporaries such the Cadillac ATS & BMW's 335i.
Why? Because while both competitors are AWD, they start life as FWD. As a
result, both vehicles have unusual engine placements. A mix of limit
testing & canyon carving follows as Jonny provides insight on both cars,
examining everything from driving impressions to interior ergonomics. Does

Please forgive me if any of this is wrong -I'm completely new to Java. My task is to set up the client/server architecture for an upcoming Facebook game. On the server-side, I have:
- Java
- Tomcat
- RestEasy
- BlazeDS
- Enunciate
All held together with Maven. I can annotate RESTful endpoints with @Path() and they will spit out objects serialized in AMF when I hit them in the browser. So far so good. Now I need to consume these endpoints on the client/Flex-side. Enunciate has generated AS files for the types I have annotated with @XmlRootElement in Java, and I can use these types in my AS3 code. The problem is that hitting REST endpoints in AS3 is pretty ugly. It looks something like this:
function resourceRetrieved(event:Event):void {
var stream:URLStream = URLStream( event.target );
var resource:SomeJavaClass = ( stream.readObject() as SomeJavaClass );
lblResult.text = resource.message;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://localhost:8080/rest/somefunc");
request.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.message = "This is my test string!";
request.data = variables;
var resourceStream:URLStream = new URLStream();
resourceStream.addEventListener("complete", resourceRetrieved)
Ugly -and I have to write this by hand in order to get the benefits of strong typing. However! I noticed when digging through the source code that if the @WebService and @WebMethod tags are used instead of @Path, wonderful strongly-typed AS3 wrappers for my service classes are generated by Enunciate, along with corresponding AS3 events. It also generates the correct services-config.xml! The usage then becomes something like this:
function onSomeFuncEvent(event:SomeJavaServiceEvent):void {
lblResult.text = event.result;
var service:SomeJavaService = new SomeJavaService();
service.addEventListener( SomeJavaServiceEvent.SomeFuncEvent, onSomeFuncEvent );
service.someFunc("This is my test string!");
As you can see, the consumer of the generated code does not need to know where the endpoint is, what types are returned from the events, etc. I would like to go this route because I believe it will be easier to maintain. That brings me to my questions:
- Why are the wonderful Service and ServiceEvent objects only generated for @WebService and @WebMethod (which the Internet tells me is JAX-WS) but not @Path? Is it work that hasn't been done, or work that can not be done given the spec differences between JAX-RS and JAX-WS? (I see that the as3-endpoint.fmt is specifically only applied to @WebService in the code)
- Am I wrong in wanting to use REST here? The Java/Tomcat/RestEasy/BlazeDS stack was recommended by my CTO but it seems to me (after fiddling for a day or two) that BlazeDS/Flex don't get along that well with REST.
- Is there a Java->AMF->Flex stack I should be considering?
Thank you for your time, and again I am sorry if these are obvious issues. My background is in game development, not web development.

Romero himself, directing in the chaos of the decaying television station.
One of the things that made DAWN so different from the much of the other horror that preceded it was the imagined meltdown of all civilization, particularly the highly-technical sort of civilization that required a high degree of upkeep and infrastructure. This got explored as a theme in a lot of the after-the-bomb movies that ran as a cold undercurrent in the fifties and sixties, giving way to man-made dystopias in the early seventies.
But in terms of framing this as a horror movie gone worldwide, Romero took it in a different direction (albeit inspired by Matheson's I AM LEGEND, which is recommended on its own merits as much as fitting within the whole literature of eschatology.)
I spent October 2012 talking about DAWN OF THE DEAD. I may or may not try to do something similar with another Romero film this year. Here's all twenty nine pages of posts from back then (and a few cleanup pieces.)

Something I learned early on in my marriage to Alpha Hubby (and applies to almost all couples) is that we had to learn one another. He had to learn how to be my husband, learn what turned me on, learn what melted me, and learned what triggered an apocalyptic meltdown in the house.
We had to learn what created the right romantic atmosphere and how to accomplish that for one another.
Of course we both have separate things that do that – and it is important to learn what each considers romance. Him changing my oil or adding Freon feels protective-good but that is not romance in my eyes. In his eyes, yes. It is. He is showing me he loves me. Trying to get him to understand the difference between knowing he loves me and romancing me has been a Alpha-sized chore, for sure.
Obviously, I had the same things to learn about him. All the love notes in the world will make him smile but he'd rather have a rendezvous set up just for him. He LIKES rendezvous. Very much so. He wants full out makeup, sexy clothing (not necessarily nighties) and stockings with heels. Then again, he's not picky – I'm not sure he sees much past the heels and makeup.
And I did learn looking nice just for him is important to him, sex involved or not. How many times do we dress up to go to town but look like that poor woman above when our significant other gets home?? Yes I know it's easier to let it go. But if it important to him?
Not everything works for every one. Those "How to Seduce Him in 30 Seconds" magazine articles are good for ideas but those are not more important than sitting down and *gasp* talking to one another. Ask very specific questions. People are like children in the sense that you should not ask "yes-no" questions.
You ask a child, wanting details, "Did you have a good day at school today?" He will answer, "Yes" and go on his merry way. Or "What did you learn at school today?" Answer: "Nothing" – ugh.
Details. Be specific: "What did you think about the new room mascot, Rudy the Rat?" "Oh, mom! He was so cool and I got to hold him." See? Details.
So saying, "Do you like romantic gestures" gets the Alpha Grunt, "Sure" and is a waste of time. Specifics are necessary. And help them with the answers, too.
"Alpha Hubby, what do you want me to do to turn you on, make the bedroom/living room/kitchen floor-counter-wall experience better for you? HOW can I make your love life better?"
Then PAY ATTENTION to his answers, jot them down so you don't forget, and plan your seduction around that.
MORE importantly? Do this often. People change, new ideas pop up, and in order to keep it fresh and alive, your love life will need fuel on the embers. Never assume. Always ask, and often.
And never, ever, ever underestimate the power of touch. Touch one another often. Rub his jaw, his thigh, his back. Touch his arm, often, especially in public. Constantly be aware of one another; touch helps with this.
And men? Taking her hand while you're walking along is one of the most important things you can do. There is nothing that makes a woman feel more cherished, special, giddy (oh shut up ladies, you know you love it) than for you to reach down and grab her fingers, and hold on. Hold on like she is THE most precious thing to you. Especially at a party where Ms. Sally Office Skank is strutting her stuff around flirting with the men… HOLD ON to her hand so she knows you know Ms. SOS ain't all that!
Touching hands is important. Hands are probably THE most important…
OH OKAY – FEET. Feet are important, too.
Just touch already!!

Update: joint ownership of property — a round-up of the major decisions in the wake of Jones v Kernott
By Ashley Wynne
The twin 'seismic' cases in the area of co-habitation disputes of Stack v Dowden [2007] UKHL 17 and Jones v Kernott [2011] UKSC 53 have come and gone and case law in which those decisions have been applied has begun to filter through. The following is a brief summary of the major reported cases that have followed in the wake of Jones v Kernott. It is difficult to extract a common thread from these cases as each has its own distinct factual make-up, but if there is any element of commonality of approach, it would seem to be the continued use of financial contributions as the basis upon which the quantification of beneficial entitlements under a constructive trust are calculated.
In Geary v Rankine [2012] EWCA Civ.555, the parties were in a relationship between 1990 and 2009 and lived together for the whole of that period. Their son was born in 1992. Mrs Geary remained married to her former husband until 2002. In 1996, Mr Rankine purchased a guesthouse in Hastings. The property was purchased for £61,000, all of which was sourced from Mr Rankine's own savings. Initially, a manager was employed but after only a short time Mr Rankine moved from the parties' home in London to Hastings in order to run the guesthouse himself. Mrs Geary soon joined him and played an active role in running the business. Following the demise of the parties' relationship, Mrs Geary claimed: (i) an account on the basis that the business had been a partnership; and (ii) a declaration that the guest house was held by Mr Rankine by way of a constructive trust for the benefit of both parties.
The claims for a partnership account and a beneficial interest were rejected. There was no evidence that could form the basis of a finding that the parties intended Mrs Geary to obtain a beneficial interest in the guesthouse at the time of the purchase or that such an intention arose subsequently. There was also no evidence that Mrs Geary had changed her position in reliance upon any assertion that she was to have an interest in the property. Her claim in relation to a business partnership was dismissed on the facts…

Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) and The Tetris Company, LLC announced today the development of Tetris® Blitz, an innovative new twist on the world famous puzzle game. This lightning-fast, "Blitz"-style game challenges players to race against the clock and contains fresh new features and stunning visuals for the ultimate Tetris experience. Available for both Apple® and Android™ smartphones and tablets, Tetris Blitz is EA's first-ever freemium Tetris game.
Tetris Blitz introduces all new strategies to the iconic Tetris gameplay in a two-minute sprint to clear lines and rack up as many points as possible before time runs out. Fans will get blown away by stunning cascades by clearing multiple lines back-to-back, to trigger the elusive Frenzy Mode for a huge score multiplier. Players can also boost their score by choosing from the game's collection of explosive power-ups---- and with new power-ups released every week, the combinations are endless. Blitz also innovates on the fan favorite One-Touch controls with the addition of the new "Drag and Place" option, while also including the traditional "Swipe" option for Tetris players who prefer the classic controls.
"Tetris Blitz wraps all of the best elements of the iconic Tetris game inside a bite-sized, frenzied experience that is perfect for smartphones and tablets," said Nick Earl, Senior Vice President and General Manager for EA's All Play label. "The crisp graphics, innovative new controls and social leaderboards are bound to make Tetris Blitz a captivating gaming experience for longtime Tetris fans and newcomers alike."
Additionally, Tetris Blitz will feature Facebook® Connect integration, which will let players compete with friends in a weekly competition, share high scores and brag as they fly past friends on the leaderboards.
"Tetris Blitz is a re-imagined extension of the original Tetris game for smartphone and tablet gamers," added Henk Rogers, Managing Director of The Tetris Company. "New additions like the two-minute countdown timer and Facebook Connect are welcome updates to the Tetris legacy and will provide a fast-paced and fun on-the-go experience for today's Tetris gamers."
Tetris Blitz will be available later this spring on the Apple App Store SM, Google Play and Amazon App Store.

There will be 50 billion Internet connected devices by 2020. Today, every manufacturer has a propriety protocol and an app. How do we securely integrate these "things" into our lives and businesses in a way that we can easily control and manage? Even better, how do we integrate these "things" so that they control and manage each other so our lives become more convenient or our businesses become more profitable and/or safe? We have heard that the best interface is no interface. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Chris Matthieu, Co-Founder & CTO at Octoblu, Inc., will discuss how these devices generate enough data to learn our behaviors and simplify/improve our lives.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) irreversibly encoded. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Peter Dunkley, Technical Director at Acision, will look at how this identity problem can be solved and discuss ways to use existing web identities for real-time communication.

While great strides have been made relative to the video aspects of remote collaboration, audio technology has basically stagnated. Typically all audio is mixed to a single monaural stream and emanates from a single point, such as a speakerphone or a speaker associated with a video monitor. This leads to confusion and lack of understanding among participants especially regarding who is actually speaking. Spatial teleconferencing introduces the concept of acoustic spatial separation between conference participants in three dimensional space. This has been shown to significantly improve comprehension and conference efficiency.

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, will discuss single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example to explain some of these concepts including when to use different storage models.

"Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol" star Jeremy Renner had a close call with a bar brawl Thursday morning in Thailand, according to GossipCop.
RELATED: Trouble With the Law 2011
Renner and a few friends were still hanging out after hours at Rachada Pub in Phuket Town around 4:30 a.m. when one member of their group, Vorasit Issara, dropped a glass on the floor.
Rather than simply cleaning up the accident, six of the bar's employees allegedly attacked Issara and his friends, stabbing Issara in the stomach with a knife and slashing his face with a rotor ax.
RELATED: Why Jeremy Renner Prioritizes Acting Over Women
Although it was initially reported that Renner sustained minor injuries, his rep later confirmed to GossipCop that he was present during the fight, but not involved.
The six men in question have been arrested, with reports that they will be charged with the attempted murder of Issara.
RELATED: Tom and Katie Hit the 'Mission: Impossible' Red Carpet
A source tells TMZ that Issara, the general manager of a local resort, "was drinking and was in a heated argument with the bar staff" prior to the incident.

Myth of Arctic meltdown: Stunning satellite images show summer ice cap is thicker and covers 1.7million square kilometres MORE than 2 years ago...despite Al Gore's prediction it would be ICE-FREE by now
- Seven years after former US Vice-President Al Gore's warning, Arctic ice cap has expanded for second year in row
- An area twice the size of Alaska - America's biggest state - was open water two years ago and is now covered in ice
- These satellite images taken from University of Illinois's Cryosphere project show ice has become more concentrated
The speech by former US Vice-President Al Gore was apocalyptic. 'The North Polar ice cap is falling off a cliff,' he said. 'It could be completely gone in summer in as little as seven years. Seven years from now.'
Those comments came in 2007 as Mr Gore accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for his campaigning on climate change.
But seven years after his warning, The Mail on Sunday can reveal that, far from vanishing, the Arctic ice cap has expanded for the second year in succession – with a surge, depending on how you measure it, of between 43 and 63 per cent since 2012.
Scroll down for video
To put it another way, an area the size of Alaska, America's biggest state, was open water two years ago, but is again now covered by ice.
The most widely used measurements of Arctic ice extent are the daily satellite readings issued by the US National Snow and Ice Data Center, which is co-funded by Nasa. These reveal that – while the long-term trend still shows a decline – last Monday, August 25, the area of the Arctic Ocean with at least 15 per cent ice cover was 5.62 million square kilometres.
This was the highest level recorded on that date since 2006 (see graph, right), and represents an increase of 1.71 million square kilometres over the past two years – an impressive 43 per cent.
Other figures from the Danish Meteorological Institute suggest that the growth has been even more dramatic. Using a different measure, the area with at least 30 per cent ice cover, these reveal a 63 per cent rise – from 2.7 million to 4.4 million square kilometres.
The satellite images published here are taken from a further authoritative source, the University of Illinois's Cryosphere project.
They show that as well as becoming more extensive, the ice has grown more concentrated, with the purple areas – denoting regions where the ice pack is most dense – increasing markedly.
Crucially, the ice is also thicker, and therefore more resilient to future melting. Professor Andrew Shepherd, of Leeds University and University Coillege, London, an expert in climate satellite monitoring, said yesterday: 'It is clear from the measurements we have collected that the Arctic sea ice has experienced a significant recovery in thickness over the past year.
'It seems that an unusually cool summer in 2013 allowed more ice to survive through to last winter. This means that the Arctic sea ice pack is thicker and stronger than usual, and this should be taken into account when making predictions of its future extent.'
The speech by former US Vice-President Al Gore (above) was apocalyptic. He said that the North Polar ice cap is falling off a cliff and could be gone in seven years
Yet for years, many have been claiming that the Arctic is in an 'irrevocable death spiral', with imminent ice-free summers bound to trigger further disasters. These include gigantic releases of methane into the atmosphere from frozen Arctic deposits, and accelerated global warming caused by the fact that heat from the sun will no longer be reflected back by the ice into space.
Judith Curry, professor of earth and atmospheric sciences at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, said last night: 'The Arctic sea ice spiral of death seems to have reversed.'
Those who just a few years ago were warning of ice-free summers by 2014 included US Secretary of State John Kerry, who made the same bogus prediction in 2009, while Mr Gore has repeated it numerous times – notably in a speech to world leaders at the UN climate conference in Copenhagen in 2009, in an effort to persuade them to agree a new emissions treaty.
Mr Gore – whose office yesterday failed to respond to a request for comment – insisted then: 'There is a 75 per cent chance that the entire polar ice cap during some of the summer months could be completely ice-free within five to seven years.'
Misleading as such forecasts are, some people continue to make them. Only last month, while giving evidence to a House of Lords Select Committee inquiry on the Arctic, Cambridge University's Professor Peter Wadhams claimed that although the Arctic is not ice-free this year, it will be by September 2015.
Asked about this yesterday, he said: 'I still think that it is very likely that by mid-September 2015, the ice area will be less than one million square kilometres – the official designation of ice-free, implying only a fringe of floes around the coastlines. That is where the trend is taking us.'
For that prediction to come true it would require by far the fastest loss of ice in history. It would also fly in the face of a report last year by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which stated with 'medium confidence' that ice levels would 'likely' fall below one million square kilometres by 2050.
Politicians such as Al Gore have often insisted that climate science is 'settled' and have accused those who question their forecasts of being climate change 'deniers'.
However, while few scientists doubt that carbon-dioxide emissions cause global warming, and that this has caused Arctic ice to decline, there remains much uncertainty about the speed of melting and how much of it is due to human activity. But outside the scientific community, the more pessimistic views have attracted most attention. For example, Prof Wadhams's forecasts have been cited widely by newspapers and the BBC. But many reject them.
An area twice the size of Alaska was open water two years ago and is now covered in ice after the arctic ice cap has expanded for the second year in a row
Yesterday Dr Ed Hawkins, who leads an Arctic ice research team at Reading University, said: 'Peter Wadhams's views are quite extreme compared to the views of many other climate scientists, and also compared to what the IPCC report says.'
Dr Hawkins warned against reading too much into ice increase over the past two years on the grounds that 2012 was an 'extreme low', triggered by freak weather.
'I'm uncomfortable with the idea of people saying the ice has bounced back,' he said.
However, Dr Hawkins added that the decline seen in recent years was not caused only by global warming. It was, he said, intensified by 'natural variability' – shifts in factors such as the temperature of the oceans. This, he said, has happened before, such as in the 1920s and 1930s, when 'there was likely some sea ice retreat'.
Dr Hawkins said: 'There is undoubtedly some natural variability on top of the long-term downwards trend caused by the overall warming. This variability has probably contributed somewhat to the post-2000 steep declining trend, although the human-caused component still dominates.'
Like many scientists, Dr Hawkins said these natural processes may be cyclical. If and when they go into reverse, they will cool, not warm, the Arctic, in which case, he said, 'a decade with no declining trend' in ice cover would be 'entirely plausible'.
Peer-reviewed research suggests that at least until 2005, natural variability was responsible for half the ice decline. But exactly how big its influence is remains an open question – and as both Dr Hawkins and Prof Curry agreed, establishing this is critical to making predictions about the Arctic's future.
Prof Curry said: 'I suspect that the portion of the decline in the sea ice attributable to natural variability could be even larger than half.
'I think the natural variability component of Arctic sea ice extent is in the process of bottoming out, with a reversal to start within the next decade. And when it does, the reversal period could last for several decades.'
This led her to believe that the IPCC forecast, like Al Gore's, was too pessimistic.
'Ice-free in 2050 is a possible scenario, but I don't think it is a likely scenario,' she concluded.
The apparent recovery in Arctic ice looks like good news for polar bears.
If there is more ice at the end of the summer, they can hunt seals more easily. Yet even when the ice reached a low point in 2012, there was no scientific evidence that bear numbers were declining, with their estimated total of 20,000 to 25,000 thought to be higher than in the 1970s, when hunting was first banned.
In many Arctic regions, say scientists, they are in robust health and breeding successfully.
Computer model predictions of decline caused by ice melt have also failed to come true. In 2004, researchers claimed Hudson Bay bear numbers would fall from 900 to fewer than 700 by 2011. In fact, they have risen to over 1,000.
However, the main international bear science body, the Polar Bear Specialist Group, admits it has no reliable data from almost half of the Arctic, so cannot say whether numbers are falling or rising.

The John McCain-Sarah Palin campaign on Thursday released its latest Web ad, entitled "Joe the Plumber," featuring the Ohio man who was mentioned repeatedly during Wednesday night's presidential debate.
According to a campaign release, "the ad highlights Barack Obama's plans to increase taxes on Americans, even as they seek to build their own small businesses and create jobs. While Barack Obama talks about cutting taxes, his plan is really just a plan to 'spread the wealth around' instead of creating new wealth and new opportunity."
Plumbing company employee Joe Wurzelbacher had complained that Obama's tax policy would make it difficult for him as a small businessman.
The ad shows Wurzelbacher telling Obama during a campaign stop in Holland, Ohio: "Your new tax plan is going to tax me more."
Obama tells him: "It's not that I want to punish your success … I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody."
The announcer then intones: "Everybody? Leading papers call Obama's taxes 'welfare … government handouts.'
"Obama raises taxes on seniors, hard-working families to give 'welfare' to those who pay none.
"Just as you suspected, Obama's not truthful on taxes."

I thought Fx 10 ESR was not going to restart after installing this update. It took a VERY long time but it did finally restart and everything seems ok. But it doesn't work as well on this version of Fx as it doesn't collapse other trees automatically when a tab gets focus. It works better on Fx 4 on my host machine. Both machines run XP Pro so I don't know why it works better on Fx 4.On Fx 4, I have not been offered an update (when I check for updates) to Tree Style Tabs since March. I was offered an update to Multiple Tab Handler and Informational Tab but not Tree Style Tabs. The Informational Tab update has made the progress meter very fat. I prefer the more narrow bar which I had until this update. (This was an update available in March but I just got it now for Fx 4).--When governments fear people, there is liberty.
