When talking IoT we often focus on the devices, the sensors, the hardware itself. The new smart appliances, the new smart or self-driving cars (which are amalgamations of many 'things'). When we are looking at the world of IoT, we should take a step back, look at the big picture. What value are these devices providing. IoT is not about the devices, its about the data consumed and generated. The devices are tools, mechanisms, conduits. This paper discusses the considerations when dealing with the...

James McAvoy leads the way to the past in "X-Men: First Class," which opens June 3 and presents him as a younger Charles Xavier, the mutant master who sees the world in very different ways than his frenemy, Erik, who is destined to become Magneto. Our Geoff Boucher caught up with McAvoy a few weeks ago while the 31-year-old Scottish actor was shooting the Fox film in L.A.
GB: It sounds like you had your hands full with the water-tank work here in L.A.?
JM: It was me saving Michael Fassbender's … which is always fun. We worked together before, we met on "Band of Brothers," which was my first TV job and probably his first or second. We both ride motorbikes, you know, scooters, around London, and every now and again, we'd pass each other and stop and give an old pump of the hand and slap on the back. He's a lovely fellow.
GB: You and he each have a challenge — Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are towering figures in the sci-fi and fantasy sector, and I imagine stepping into their roles must give you pause. Do you think a lot about Stewart's work in this role, either as a place to begin or a place to avoid?
JM: I don't think about it too much. This isn't a reboot, so I'm not replacing anyone, in which case you might want to try to be as different as possible and stay away from what has been done before. This is a prequel, so I'm the same character, just younger, but the challenge for me — and for Michael — is to show the same person in a different place in their life, to show someone before they're this bad guy, before they're this saint. Charles wasn't always a … monk, this selfless, sexless monk that he becomes.
GB: [Producer] Bryan Singer said many months ago that in his mind the story of the Charles and Erik friendship demanded to be the center of any prequel. Can you talk a bit about the physics of that friendship in this film?
JM: It's kind of a love story, like "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," which, really, was a love story between two men. This is the first time in their lives they've met someone who is an equal of sorts, someone who understands them and can connect and push them too. Especially Charles, he's fascinated with Erik and his potential. For Erik, Charles is the first person he's trusted to really tell about his past and the first person to understand the horrible things he's been through.
GB: Tell us about your non-monk Charles.
JM: Charles is caught up in himself. He enjoys success and is proud, and he's not the selfless person that he becomes. You look at the relationship with Raven — who becomes Mystique – and you examine that relationship and the way he treats her like a living experiment. She's an assistant to him and he cares for her, but there's his ego and condescending big-brother attitude as well. You see it in the way he treats the others. In the "later" movies, he's exorcised that from his personality. For me, trying to keep that ego as an underpinning of the character is important.
GB: Matthew Vaughn is quite the firebrand. I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who was more candid.
JM: He's a really good fun, he's a character. He's definitely not like anybody else. But that's the same with all these directors, isn't it? It's a strange breed of person, these director types, a bit dodgy aren't they? But he really is a lot of fun to be around and there's a lot of energy and he has a very specific thing he's looking for and when you come in to it he's got great people around him. It's just an actor's coven [on the set] if you know what I mean, there's a community that he creates that is quite cool.
GB: At the beginning of this project, Vaughn said Hollywood was wringing all the life out the superhero genre. Thoughts?
JM: All fashions go around. At some point, the audience taste and stamina might be less, and then you see the cycle of fashion and it goes away for a while. I look at the Christian Bale movies, the Batman films, and that shows you that superhero movies don't just have to be about men in tights. I think 'The Dark Knight' was really quite interesting, and if you can make movies that are that interesting, it sort of goes beyond fashion. You just try to be as good as you can and try not to get fired. Seriously, that's a real threat with these superhero movies. People get fired all the time, and I don't want to lose my job.

The Dirty Dozen Produce Items
Ecotot: Steer Clear of the Dirty Dozen Produce Items
We read food labels, the packaging of the products and try to support businesses that practice fair trade policies in an effort to help communities around the world. But, being eco-conscious and healthy often pulls on our purse strings. With the current state of the economy, many families have given up organic foods to cut costs at the checkout counter.
When choosing to move from organic to regular produce, be aware of what the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a non-profit research organization, calls the "dirty dozen" – the twelve foods that retain a high level of pesticides even after washing. By avoiding the non-organic versions of the items on this list, based on pesticide tests run by the US Department of Agriculture and FDA earlier this decade, we can reduce our pesticide intake by 90 percent.

A Dubai World Cup prep, a smattering of Kentucky Derby teasers and a whole bunch of top-rank grass events headline weekend racing.
Even more action is on tap for Monday, President's Day, as the first round of Derby preps winds up.
But first, the task at hand:
Gulfstream Park
Sunday's feature, the $100,000, Grade III Sabine Stakes for fillies and mares at 1 1/16 miles on the main track, drew the marquee matchup of the weekend: Reigning champion female Royal Delta versus Grace Hall. Three others fill out the field. Royal Delta has won the Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic two years in a row and has been victorious in four of her last five starts. She got some support for 2012 Horse of the Year. Grace Hall finished fourth behind Royal Delta in the Breeders' Cup but won last year's Grade II Delaware Oaks and Grade II Indiana Oaks. The others appear to be running for show money. Royal Delta used last year's Sabine as a prep for the Dubai World Cup on a night that saw all the U.S. horses flop badly. She finished ninth.
"Anytime you run the first time (after a layoff), I guess it can be termed a prep," said trainer Bill Mott. "We want to see how she's going here in the afternoon. We are planning on going to Dubai."
Grace Hall's trainer, Tony Dutrow, said his filly has been training well at Palm Meadows.
"She got back a little farther than I expected early in the Breeders' Cup and they kind of got away from her," he said. "I'm not sure she handled that track as much as the ones she was running on back east."
Ten are set for Saturday's $150,000, Grade II Mac Diarmida Stakes at 1 3/8 miles on the grass. Newsdad, Ioya Bigtime and Twilight Eclipse are the highweights in the field but Teaks North is coming off a win in the Sunshine Millions Turf. Lucky Chappy returns after a third-place finish in the Grade I Hollywood Derby but hasn't won since he was in Rome a year and a half ago. Nikki's Sandcastle won a couple of minor stakes earlier in the meeting but then finished fourth in the Grade II Ft. Lauderdale in his last outing. Fifty Proof has been tough at Woodbine.
Saturday's $100,000, Grade III The Very One Stakes drew nine fillies and mares. Starformer comes off a win in the Grade III Long Island Handicap at Aqueduct. Closing Range jumped up to win the Grade III Prevoyante Handicap at Calder in a big upset in her last start in November. Kadaya has won two straight for trainer Robert Hess Jr. at Gulfstream after racing at minor tracks in France back in 2011. My Pal Chrissy has been a consistent money-earner.
Sunday's $150,000, Grade II San Vicente Stakes at Santa Anita is only 7 furlongs and Bob Baffert trains half of the entries -- Belvin, Shakin It Up and War Academy. Shakin It Up, a Midnight Lute colt, was last seen finishing third in the Grade III Hollywood Prevue Stakes in November. War Academy is a promising sort, coming off a convincing maiden win and boasting a "could be any kind" pedigree. Mudflats finished seventh in his last start, the Grade II Jerome, at Aqueduct -- his first start out of the maiden ranks.
Carving, trained by Baffert and owned by his wife, Jill, along with superskier Bode Miller, gets another chance in Saturday's $200,000, Grade III El Camino Real Derby at Golden Gate Fields. The Any Given Saturday colt is among nine 3-year-olds set to go 1 1/8 miles on the all-weather track. Carving won the Real Quiet Stakes at Hollywood Park last November before finishing a disappointing sixth in the Cash Call Futurity in December. He has not run since Dec. 15. Zeewat and Wildcat Moon, the 1-2 finishers from the California Derby, are in this field. Manando finished third in the Grade III Sham Stakes at Santa Anita.
Laurel Park
Nicole H is almost always in the money and Saturday will try to improve on last year's second-place finish in the $250,000, Grade II Barbara Fritchie Handicap -- a 7-furlongs affair for fillies and mares. She has nine prospective opponents, including My Wandy's Girl, who comes off a third-place finish in the Grade I Gazelle at Aqueduct in November. Onepointthreekarats has won three in a row but steps up in class. Withgreatpleasure has finished second in each of her last four starts. Morrow Cove invades for trainer Todd Pletcher.
Santa Anita
Jerry Hollendorfer trains three of the six fillies and mares entered for Saturday's $200,000, Grade II Santa Maria Stakes at 1 1/16 miles on the main track. Among them, Lady of Fifty is a graded stakes winner and Snow Fall won the ungraded Paseana Handicap in her last race last month. More likely are Book Review, winner of the Grade I La Brea and second in the Grade II La Canada in her last two outings for Baffert; and two enigmatic South American imports, Great Hot and Private Affair, both struggling to find North American form.
Tampa Bay Downs
Saturday's $150,000, Grade III Tampa Bay Stakes is run at 1 1/16 miles on the turf. The field is headed by Grade II winners Big Blue Kitten and Doubles Partner. The latter won this race two years ago. Also on the list of entrants are the first four finishers from last year's edition of this race -- Roman Tiger, El Commodore, Swift Warrior and Allie's Event.
Black Caviar returns to action Saturday at Flemington, trying to win the Lightning Stakes for a third time. The race now carries her name. Black Caviar has not raced since her close call in winning the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot in June -- her 23rd win without a loss. Trainer Peter Moody says his star is in the best shape ever, as evidenced by her final piece of work last weekend at Caulfield. She is expected to face up to seven rivals in the Lightning Stakes but bookmakers are giving odds on her margin of victory, in addition to her chance of winning.
Hong Kong
Sunday's card at Sha Tin features the HG-Group 1 Hong Kong Classic Cup, the second leg of the SAR's 4-year-old series. Fourteen are entered and Gold-Fun and Garlic Boy, the 1-2 finishers in the first leg, the HK-Group 1 Hong Kong Classic Mile, will square off again. They will be joined by some impressive newcomers, including Autumn Gold and Akeed Mofeed. The race should help establish some form for the HK-Group 1 BMW Hong Kong Derby.
Lucky Nine, Frederick Engles and Joy and Fun headline a nine-horse field for Sunday's HK-Group 1 Chairman's Sprint Prize at 1,200 meters.
Sunday's $2.5 million, JP-Group 1 February Stakes is run at 1 mile on the dirt at the Tokyo Race Course and finds Curren Black Hill trying to do something never before accomplished in Japan -- win this historic stakes in his first try on the dirt course. Trainer Osama Hiratu admitted he's rolling the dice but added, "If he can get off to a fast start and capitalize on his speed, I think he might have a good shot." Sixteen are set to go.

Wash Your Outdoor Dinnerware? No, Compost It!
Thinking about your last BBQ of the summer season? Labor Day weekend is just around the corner, so take advantage of the remaining summer nights—enjoy friends, grill locally-grown corn and peaches, and eat outside. And unless you're setting the table for just a few, there's always the dinnerware to consider. With so many options on the market, it can be difficult to determine product differences and benefits. So, here are three brands that aren't only eco-friendly, but will also add a whole lot of flair to your table setting.
1 WASARA tableware is made from renewable resources such as sugar cane fiber, bamboo, and reed pulp and is completely tree-free in its production inputs. The Japanese-influenced artful designs have gently curving clean lines. They are biodegradable and compostable, even in your home system. They will withstand the hot temperatures of coffee and soup just as well as they uphold to the cooler temperatures of ice cream. WASARA products are available from online retailers Joanne Hudson Basics, Green Party Goods, and Branch. Prices range from $10 for six coffee cups to $14 for eight of their signature trays. Large dinner plates are available in packages of eight for $12. These items can be purchased in bulk quantities as well.
2 Looking for a more traditional style? All Occasion Veneerware is Bambu's indoor and outdoor single-use plate. Its understated, classic design will perfectly set any table. Made from bamboo stalk, this dinnerware and flatware is FDA food-safe approved—neither bleach nor dyes are used in the production of this product. After disposal, these wares will biodegrade in four to six months. This sturdy alternative to the paper or plastic plate is extremely durable and is made from 100% organically-grown bamboo. Available from online retailers Joanne Hudson Basics and Branch, expect to pay between $7 for eight 7" plates to $13 for a pack of eight 11" plates. Serving trays are available in packs of four for $10 and eight settings of flatware will cost you $10. Items can be purchased in bulk.
3 VerTerra dinnerware is made from fallen leaves and water, that's it. And the product's design is as simple as its inputs, but elegant enough to set any table, inside or out. Marketed as "non-toxic, biodegradable, compostable, durable, lightweight, convenient, and stylish," these super-sturdy dinner plates are microwave and oven safe. Because the dinnerware isn't made using bonding agents, lacquers or chemicals, it's considered natural and porous; therefore, the company can't say the product is multi-use, even though it seems durable enough to be. The dinnerware will biodegrade within two months and is BPI-certified as 100% compostable. Available from online retailer Joanne Hudson Basics, when purchased in small quantities, these products are the most expensive of our options. A small bowl costs $4.94 each while a large plate is $6.99. If purchasing this product, consider buying bulk quantities—it will save you! A pack of 25 small bowls costs $16.99 while a pack of 25 medium plates run $22.46.

Andrew D. Stine, P.A.
When facing criminal charges in Florida, your rights, freedom, reputation, and future are all threatened. Suddenly, the things you used to take for granted, such as financial stability, the eligibility for future employment opportunities, and basic civil rights like the right to vote, become endangered privileges you are actively aware of.

Staunch Criminal Defense Advocate in Palm Beach County
As an attorney who got his start in a public defender's office, experienced Palm Beach County defense attorney Andrew Stine has been a strong advocate for the rights and defense of the accused from the very beginning. As a public defender, he fought passionately to defend the rights of men, women, and minors who otherwise had no means of protection or advocacy.

When considering the criminal defense services of Andrew Stine, it is best to contact him as soon as possible after your arrest so that early intervention can begin immediately.

Strong Advocate against Fraud, Criminal Conspiracy, and Federal Charges
Simply speaking, fraud is any crime that involves an element of deceit, trickery, or breach of confidence committed in order to gain an unfair and/or dishonest advantage, which is usually financial in nature. From identity theft to money laundering to bankruptcy fraud, most of these charges are serious state offenses that usually have a federal counterpart. A conviction for fraud, such as for mortgage or real estate fraud, in Palm Beach County can come with severe consequences at the state level that include prison time, fines, civil penalties, and civil liability for any damage done.
Though unusual, it is not impossible for a West Palm Beach fraud offense that is also a federal crime to be charged at the state level as well. Federal charges are not necessarily better or worse than state charges, but they are different and often complex. They are governed by different laws, rules, and procedures and federal court has a different environment than state-governed courts. Many federal charges involve some element of criminal conspiracy (also sometimes known as racketeering), which is when a group of alleged offenders work together to commit one or more crimes on a large scale.
With all federal charges, including criminal conspiracy, it?s best to hire a lawyer experienced in these cases rather than a lawyer who has never fought a federal case before. In any major drug case or fraud case, it is also important to consider an experienced federal charge defense attorney for your Florida criminal case, as the federal charges could be pursued in addition to or in lieu of your state case at any point. Andrew Stine is an experienced Palm Beach County federal attorney who knows what it takes to protect you in federal court.
Putting You and the Defense of Your Rights First
Backed by over a decade of experience in criminal defense, Andrew Stine is a qualified and knowledgeable defense lawyer in Palm Beach County who fights for a broad spectrum of criminal cases in the West Palm Beach Area. Whether you have been charged with a traffic offense, arrested on weapons or firearms charges, or need criminal defense for a juvenile offender, Andrew Stine believes your rights matter and that your future is worth protecting.
If you have been arrested and charged with any criminal offense, from a traffic violation to federal drug charges, in West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Greenacres, Jupiter, Lake Park, Lantana, North Palm Beach, Pahokee, Palm Beach, Palm Springs, Tequesta, or any of the surrounding areas in Palm Beach County, contact Andrew D. Stine, P.A.. Remember, early intervention is the best defense strategy in any case, so call Andrew Stine and his team immediately after arrest.
Andrew Stine will work directly with you on your case and incorporate your wants, needs, wishes, and concerns into a comprehensive, customized defense strategy constructed with a passion for the craft and a militant attention to detail. No matter the circumstances of your Palm Beach County criminal case, your rights as an American citizen deserve protecting. Your first consultation with Andrew D.

Hollyoaks: Sinead in tot shock after fall
PREGNANT teenager Sinead O'Connor gets herself a job at Price Slice but ends up putting her unborn baby at risk.
Sinead is going through all sorts of emotions when she falls from the ladder
As our dramatic picture shows, the pretty brunette falls from a ladder after being given the task of cleaning the shop windows.
As news of her accident spreads, everyone is worried about the baby – except Sinead.
At the hospital medics confirm all is fine but Sinead pleads for help – because she does not want the baby.
She then shocks her boss Cindy Cunningham by revealing that she wants an abortion.
Cindy talks to the mixed-up teen and asks if she has thought about adoption, which leads her to ask her stepmum
Diane if she wants the baby.
A Hollyoaks insider said: "Sinead is going through all sorts of emotions when she falls from the ladder.
"But ultimately she realises that if she had lost her baby then all her worries would be over. The bottom line is she does not want the child.
"She's young and doesn't want the responsibility of becoming a mum.
"Sinead confides in Cindy, of all people, and even goes as far as booking an abortion after she gets the all-clear from the hospital. Cindy had Holly when she was a teenager, so she can relate to what Sinead is going through and suggests adoption.
"It's then that Sinead decides to give her stepmum first call on the baby.
"Diane is beside herself. All she has ever wanted is a baby of her own and after a number of failed attempts at IVF she gave up. This is going to be huge for both of them."
Fans of the Channel 4 soap will be able to watch all the drama as Sinead is forced to face up to the reality of her situation a week on Thursday.

Governor's budget proposal takes aim at businessBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
February 15. 2013 11:24PM
CONCORD - House Republicans are taking issue with Gov. Maggie Hassan over business taxes in her 2014-15 proposed budget.
In her budget, Hassan delays some business tax credits that lawmakers passed last year, but do not go into effect until the next biennium. The changes include such things as raising the threshold for paying the business enterprise tax and increasing allowable expenses.
Hassan projects that delaying implementation of the changes would save the state $17 million in revenue over the biennium.
"In the last biennium, the Legislature also made a number of promises for tax law changes, but pushed off to the next Legislature the job of paying for them. Our uncertain fiscal times mean we must further delay some of those changes," Hassan said in her budget address Thursday. "This budget suspends the implementation of unpaid for tax law changes, with the exception of the increase in the net-operating-loss-carry-forward, which this budget pays for in fiscal year 15."
The net-operating-loss carry-forward was increased from $1 million to $10 million over a 10-year period.
House Minority Leader Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, said the tax changes were made to make New Hampshire more tax friendly, which will spur the economy.
"Under the governor's plan, tax reforms passed by the previous Legislature that would have resulted in savings to our small businesses will no longer take effect," Chandler said. "The net result is $17 million in taxes coming directly out of the pockets of our job creators over the next biennium."
House Republican policy director Laurie Sanborn, R-Bedford, said she is concerned about delaying the business tax changes and with a plan to add auditors to aggressively seek additional taxes from businesses.
"The governor talks about improving the economy but in her budget she proposes a number of anti-business tax increases and aggressive audits that she anticipates will bully an additional $26 million out of our small businesses," Sanborn said. "We need to encourage responsible business success and job creation, not impose disincentives and barriers for economic growth as this budget does."
Hassan added seven new positions to the Department of Revenue administration. The additional auditors and processors are expected to generate about $26 million in additional business tax revenue over the biennium.
Under the current budget, more than a dozen auditors were eliminated and business tax collections decreased by about $20 million this year.
"The elimination of auditors and document processers at the Department of Revenue in the last budget has led to unacceptable delays in the processing of returns and refunds and cost the state millions of dollars," Hassan said. "This budget restores some of those important positions."
Overall, Hassan proposed a general fund budget increase of $184.2 million over the last biennium or a 7.1 percent increase. The state's general fund budget would be $2.8 billion over the 2014-15 biennium compared to $2.6 billion for the current biennium.
With federal money and other state revenue such as highway funds and court fines, the total state budget over the next biennium would be $11.1 billion compared to $10.1 billion for the current year, a 10.2 percent increase.
The governor projects state revenues to increase 2 percent to $2.16 billion in 2014 and 1.9 percent to $2.2 billion 2015. Current estimates are for a 1.8 percent increase in revenue this fiscal year over last.
Under her budget, higher education, mental health services and the state's largest hospitals will receive more money. Hassan pays for the additional spending with money from casino gambling, higher tobacco taxes and an increase in the number of insurance premiums resulting from the Affordable Care Act.
Her budget expands eligibility for Medicaid, the federal-state health insurance program for the poor and elderly, which may need legislative approval. The federal government would pay about $300 million for the cost of adding about 58,000 to the Medicaid rolls during the upcoming biennium.
Medicaid expansion is projected to cost the state about $18 million over seven years, while the federal government will pay $2.5 billion to hospitals and other health care providers.
Hassan will appear before a joint House and Senate Finance Committees hearing Tuesday at 10 a.m. in the Legislative Office Building to explain her budget and answer lawmakers' questions.
The House must vote on a budget by April 4 and the Senate by June 6.
The new budget needs to be adopted by June 30.

How Cutting-Edge Technology & Science Are Powering The Future TPM Idealab
Game Over: Creator Of 'FlappyBird' Says Game Ruined His Life
The game which was uploaded in 2013 but only surged to the top in downloads earlier this year was removedearly Monday.
The success of the game that based its appeal on being simple and also maddeningly difficult made its creatorNguyen Ha Dong, 29, a minor celebrity.
The game was downloaded more than 50 million times on App Store alone. In an interview with The Verge website, Dong said Flappy Bird was making $50,000 a day in advertising revenue
But tech blogger Carter Thomas said the sudden popularity of Flappy Bird might have been due to use of fake accounts run by computers to create downloads and reviews.
Thomas said he couldn't prove his suspicion and that the success of Flappy Bird might also be explained by it being "just a wildly viral game."
Dong, from Hanoi, wrote on Twitter on Saturday that the Internet sensation caused by the game "ruins my simple life" and he now hated it.
"I will take Flappy Bird down. I cannot take this anymore," he wrote.
Dong had agreed to talk to The Associated Press about the game in an interview scheduled for Friday, but canceled.
On Twitter he didn't address the inflated downloads allegation but denied suggestions he was withdrawing thegame because it breached another game maker's copyright.
"It is not anything related to legal issues. I just cannot keep it anymore," he wrote.
