text: Are Justin and Selena on the outs? You be the judge! The couple hung out at Ashley Tisdale 's birthday party together last week, but other party-goers say they saw Selena crying about something Justin did that really upset her! But later, the couple was all smiles as they posed for the cameras. Do you think it was just a fight that was quickly resolved or are they fake dating? After a whirlwind romance (um, Justin rented out the Staples Center so they could watch Titanic together), it would be such a shock for them to breakup. What do you think? Are Justin and Selena faking their romance to protect their fame or are they the real deal?

Crutchfield: Sony Alpha A-mount Cameras
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
Sony's Alpha family of digital SLR cameras take a different approach than traditional DSLRs. First, instead of a traditional flipping mirror, Sony employs a translucent pellicle mirror that splits the incoming light, allowing for faster shooting. Second, Sony's sensor-shift stabilization lets all attached lenses fight dreaded camera shake. Sony gives you a mature line of A-mount lenses to choose from, including some from noted manufacturer Carl Zeiss. Get a rundown on the entire line from the Sony booth at CES 2013.
Read video transcript
Zak: I'm at the Sony booth at CES 2013 and Eldean, tell me about the DSLR systems.
Eldean: Alright, so we have a full DSLR system — everything from the, you know, the entry-level cameras, the A57, going all the way up to our big high-end, pro-quality, full-frame A99. Some exciting models in between, the A77, APS-C size, 24 megapixels that shoots up to 24 frames a second.
But I think what separates us most from other DSLR manufacturers is that we do things differently. We take Sony's total experience and we say, "Well, how can we improve on a fifty-year-old, you know, design and make it better"? And one of the things that we do is we use translucent mirror technology. So instead of having a moving mirror that goes up and down in the camera, you know, it's a mechanical piece that flops up and down.
You have to use an optical view finder, so if I'm gonna shoot video, it lifts up and I can't use may view finder. And it also slows the camera down. So by taking that out and making a phase detection system that works with a translucent mirror camera, we can have cameras that can shoot extremely fast, up to twelve frames a second. They can shoot HD video with continuous autofocus. They can also be a lot smaller and lighter, better on battery power, and deliver a better resultant image at the end of the day. So that's one of the things that we've, you know, really streamlined in terms of our DSLR lineup.
The other thing that we do is we have sensor-shift image stabilization. So instead of having two or three lenses in our lineup, one stabilized, one unstabilized.you'll find a lot of the other manufacturers, they'll say "Oh we have, you know, we have sixty or we have seventy lenses in our lineup." But they've got two of everything, right. They've got two of each one that actually gets stabilized. We don't need to do that in our lineup. We can actually deliver a higher quality lens, but it's stabilized.
And also every single lens that you buy is stabilized, including fisheye, wide-angle, teleconverter lenses, all stabilized through the image, through the sensor-shift system, the steady shift sensor-shift system. So those are a couple of technologies that we deliver in our cameras that make them perform a little differently, but a little better than the traditional SLR.
One of the other things that we really pride ourselves in is our full lineup of Carl Zeiss lenses. And I believe we're the only company that Carl Zeiss lenses will autofocus on, and the acclaimed G-Series lenses coming from the old Minolta factories, but now run by Sony. We still have that very, very high quality lens that we still produce and recently announced the 500 f/4. So if you haven't had a chance to shoot on that that's a really good lens, yeah.
Zak: Alright. Great. Thank you so much.

Movies We Like
Flag Wars
Directors: Linda Goode Bryant, Laura Poitras. 2003. English. Black Cinema/Documentaries
Set in Columbus, OH and filmed over 4 years, Flag Wars is not only a film about gentrification, but also of racism, homophobia, and privilege. Throughout the film, you will follow Linda Mitchell as she fights for both her home and her life, Chief Baba Olugbala Shango Obadena as he struggles to keep a simple sign with his name above his door, and Jim Yoder and Nina Masseria as they face hate crimes and resistance from their neighbors. You will meet African-American families who have lived in their homes for 40 years and now face the fear of losing them to a wave of mainly white, gay professionals looking to rehab properties and better the neighborhood. While one side strides toward change, the other enjoys a life established long ago. Flag Wars shows us, quite literally, the middle of the road where the two sides meet.

text: After weeks of wrangling, Wired had finally gotten commitments from high-level surrogates from both the Obama and McCain campaigns to participate in a debate about technology yesterday afternoon. So how did it go? It didn't. The McCain campaign canceled a few hours before the event, with no plans to reschedule. While McCain's personal indifference to technology , difficult-to-defend tech policies, personal vendettas and general oldness all come to mind as reasons for this decision, more likely than not they just didn't see this as the most effective way to, you know, win.

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Pollo Campero Restaurant Review: This fab fast food spot is giving the Colonel a run for his money. Inside, shimmy-worthy Latin tunes are cranked, and a salsa bar with roasted chipotle and molcajete verde salsas, limes, cilantro, chopped onions and zingy jalapeños serves as ground zero for topping spicy fried birds, which regulars lovingly tear from the bone and wrap in warm corn tortillas. If you're in the mood for something a bit lighter, try the citrus-infused grilled chicken. Sides are out of the ordinary too. Be sure to try the sweet, caramelized plantains, cilantro- and bacon-flecked pinto beans and lime-laced Campero coleslaw.

Though LG's Nexus 4 handset notably lacks official support for LTE, iFixit's teardown last week revealed that the phone did in fact harbor an LTE chip from Qualcomm. Further digging by AnandTech and XDA Developers forum users has now revealed the extent to which that chip can actually be used.
It turns out that the phone does do LTE, but the hardware is only capable of connecting to LTE networks that use UMTS band IV, also known as Advanced Wireless Services (AWS). It's possible to specify a preference for the kinds of cellular networks Android phones connect to by going into their hidden Phone Info menu, accessible by dialing *#*#4636#*#* or by installing and launching the Phone Info app from the Google Play store. Choosing to connect to AWS networks will enable LTE support for the Nexus 4, at least in areas with coverage. No other bands are supported, though, cutting out the vast majority of current LTE networks in the United States and in other countries.
At the time of this writing, AWS is predominantly supported by Canadian cellular providers, but T-Mobile's LTE rollout, which will begin in earnest next year, should also happen mostly on this band. The fact that the Nexus 4's hardware supports LTE could, in theory, allow Google to enable that functionality on the phones with a simple software update once T-Mobile's network is up to the task.

PS4 cloud?
The new Playstation 4 is expected to be unveiled today and details of game sharing are rumored despite Sony's attempt top keep key features under wraps
WE MAY not know what the PS4 looks like or how much it costs but that hasn't stopped games retailers from taking a punt on the price.
EB Games has made the PlayStation 4 available for pre-order for $900 Kotaku reported.
To call $900 "steep" would be an understatement, especially because we don't know the basic details about the console.
All flash no console
After a two hour "launch", Sony has failed to actually reveal what the PlayStation 4 looks like, or when it will launch.
The livestream is over and we're none the wiser about what the new PlayStation 4 looks like, when it will become available for sale and how much it will cost.
Sony only vaguely mentioned that the PS4 would be "coming for 2013 holidays" but it wouldn't be more specific than that. There's also no word on when it will be released for the Australian market.
Sony's PS4 launch 'like a wedding without a bride'
Gamers are, naturally, outraged. Two hours of shop talk and no finished product? That's pretty poor.
Naturally, users flocked to Twitter to express their outrage.
Twitter user @mthspatriot11 tweeted: "Sony just revealed the worlds first invisible console. PS4....meh."
User @SAI wrote: "After more than two hours, Sony's PlayStation 4 event is over. They didn't even show us what the console looks like. http://read.bi/Wb1SBL."
Another user, @tokulski wrote that maybe the PS4 isn't a console. "Maybe it's a feeling in your heart," he wrote.
He added: "PS4, designed by Monty Python."
Twitter user @BakedBoons said there were "Several kinds of bull***t going on".
"You know what I'd really like to have seen? More vagueness. There wasn't enough of that," he tweeted.
Nail. On. Head.

Sony PS4 no show 'a big flop' - Punch Breaking Views
Seriously, who launches a new gaming console without actually showing the console? Not. Happy. Jan.
Keeping in mind that the PlayStation 4 has been seven years in the making, surely Sony could have waited slightly longer to ensure the PS4 console was backwards compatible by the time it was unveiled?
Or at least consider delaying the release to ensure that its back catalogue of games were available if not on the day of the launch, then at least by the time it hits shelves.
We've waited seven years. Surely gamers would be happy to wait longer if it means we get a better idea of what we're looking at.
Sony said that today it focused on announcing the concept of PS4 as a new platform.
In a statement, president and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment, Andrew House said the broader vision for PlayStation was "evolving from a console in the living room into the best place to play wherever gamers are."
"Our vision for the future is consumer-centric, developer-inspired, and characterised by an unwavering commitment to phenomenal play experiences," he said.
"Today we are revealing the genesis of an expanding 'idea' about the future of play – an idea with enough potential to satisfy the insatiable appetites of our creative community of developers and gamers."
PlayStation 4: The world's first invisible console
The other side: It was a "hugely successful launch"
Not everyone was disappointed by the fact that there was no actual product launch or demonstration.
Leading games website IGN.com thinks the announcement is a move in the right direction for Sony and sees the launch as a success.
Cam Shea, IGN Australia's Senior Editor told News.com.au that the design "is incredibly exciting," as it focuses on ease of use, and social connectivity "backed by a powerful PC-based architecture".
"Sony's new PS4 is an incredibly exciting new system, primarily because of the thinking and technology behind it, more so than the games unveiled at today's press conference," he said. "The thinking behind the system is anchored around instant access and social connectivity.
"Players will be able to upload game footage at the press of a button, and broadcast their games live, allowing friends to watch and even take over for them if they're stuck. The PlayStation Network will offer some great new functionality too - playing your latest purchase while downloading it, and trying full games before buying them. The tech isn't just future-facing either, as eventually the entire PlayStation back catalogue will be available via the system's cloud streaming functionality."
Mr Shea said Sony was also focusing on smartphones, tablets, PS Vita and web functionality to ensure players will always be linked to their friends and competitors.
"Importantly, Sony has partnered with Facebook to enable players to expand their social network to encompass their favourite hobby," he said.
"While the physical design of the PS4 console itself wasn't revealed, the new controller looks to be an intelligent refinement of what has come before, with a built-in touchpad and motion tracking support via a stereo camera hub. Think the PlayStation Eye or Kinect, and you'd be on the right track."
On the software side Mr Shea said a number of developers and publishers showed off staggeringly-pretty real-time demos.
"Some demonstrated new engines and what the system will be capable of, while others showed off actual games in various states of development," he said. "Original titles like Driveclub from Evolution Studios highlighted the hyper-connected world of PS4, allowing players to form car clubs and compete in challenges with players from all over the world - both in real-time and via asynchronous play. Two huge sequels were also announced: Killzone: Shadow Fall and Infamous: Second Son, with Killzone in particular representing an enormous leap forward in visual fidelity."
Mr Shea said the game titles coming from smaller studios were the most interesting.
"Jonathan Blow, the designer behind Braid, demonstrated his new game, The Witness, an open-world first-person puzzler set in a gorgeously colourful and mysterious world," he said.
"Media Molecule - the studio behind LittleBigPlanet - were also on-hand to discuss the creative possibilities the combination of PS4 hardware and the Move controller can bring. 3D sculpting of objects will allow players to create and populate their own worlds, playing out stories in real-time, then sharing them with friends."
"All told, this is a smart system from Sony, bridging the gap between the box in the living room and the many devices gamers now use on a daily basis. It's a forward-thinking system designed to compete in a modern digital landscape. The PS4 will be out before the end of 2013."
What do you think of the launch? Have your say below.
Just show us the damn console
More than an hour and a half into the presentation, Sony has yet to show the PlayStation 4 machine. There's no word yet on price or release date, though availability isn't likely for several months.
Real names and hardware compression
Mark Cerny, lead architect for the PlayStation 4 says the new PlayStation will have hardware compression so sharing video of game play will be easier. You can browse live game video of games your friends are playing.
Adopting Facebook's philosophy, Sony will transition to an online game network based on real names, even as people will also be able to keep their aliases.
Explore the PlayStation store for free
David Perry, co-founder of the Internet game company Gaikai - which Sony bought last year - talked about Gaikai's vision of letting people explore any game in the PlayStation store for free. The idea is gamers will then buy what they like.
He says PlayStation 4 will allow for virtual spectating. With one button, you can broadcast your game play so friends can "look over your shoulder virtually."
It will have a feature called remote play, in which you run the game on the PlayStation, which then sends the video to your handheld PlayStation Vita device over the Internet so you can play remotely.
Beyond games, Sony is touting the PlayStation 4's fast graphical capabilities. You'd be able to create animation in 3-D using a Move motion controller - all in real time.
PS4 Games
The event continues with demonstration of games that can be played on the new PlayStation.
Among the offerings planned: "Drive Club." An executive from Evolution Studios says it's been a concept for a decade, but made possible with the new machine. The game will be about driving the best cars in the world in the best locations in the world, using 3-D models of engines built by the development team.
Another game showcased was "The Witness." It's a puzzle game that explores an abandoned island. It will be developed exclusively for the PlayStation 4.
First thoughts on the PS4
The PS4 reportedly won't be backwards compatible with previous consoles. Gamers are not going to be happy about this. All of those PS3 games you've accumulated over the years - you won't be able to play them on the PS4.
At least not straight out of the box.
Sony did say it would be exploring "advanced technologies" that can support PS3 games on the PS4. It also said that eventually PlayStation's entire back catalogue of games would be available via the system's cloud streaming functionality".
This option will not be available right away but at least the option is there.
For now, it might be wise to hold off putting your PS3 on eBay or giving it away.
Cam Shea, IGN Australia's senior editor told News.com.au that the design "is incredibly exciting," as it focuses on ease of use, and social connectivity "backed by a powerful PC-based architecture".
"Players can now broadcast their games live, allowing friends to watch and even take over for them if they're stuck," Mr Shea said. "Instant play means players can start playing digital games as soon as they've purchased online - while the game's downloading.
"Players will even be able to try full games before they buy them. The tech isn't just future-facing either, as eventually the entire PlayStation back catalogue will be available via the system's cloud streaming functionality.
"The new controller is an intelligent refinement of what has come before, with a built-in touchpad and Move support: a stereo camera tracks where the controller is to enable motion control.
"Sony is also focusing on smartphone, tablet, PS Vita and web functionality, so players will always be linked to their social community.
"In fact, Sony's partnership with Facebook means that players will be able to expand their social network to incorporate their favourite hobby. All told, this is a smart system from Sony, bridging the gap between the box in the living room and the many devices gamers now use on a daily basis."
Mr Shea said the new PS4 is an exciting show of strength from Sony that sends a powerful message to their rivals.
"In light of increased competition from smartphones and other ways to game, Sony is boldly attempting to redefine the modern concept of gaming for the next decade," he said.
"The PlayStation 4 looks immensely powerful, and the shared DNA with performance PC components will allow developers to bring new games to life in the earliest days of the console."
The expert analysis comes as Sony unveiled its next-generation gaming system, the PlayStation 4, at a New York event this morning (AEDT).
The development gives the struggling Japanese electronics company a head start over Microsoft and an Xbox 360 successor.
The PlayStation 4 will be Sony's first major game console since the PlayStation 3 went on sale in 2006. Microsoft is expected to unveil the next Xbox in June at the E3 video game expo in Los Angeles. Last fall, Nintendo started selling the Wii U, though it plays catch-up in some respects in bringing the ability to play high-definition games.
Although the Xbox 360 came out a year before PlayStation 3, Microsoft's game machine has been more popular, largely because of its robust online service, Xbox Live, which allows people to play games with others online. The original Wii has sold more units since its launch than both its rivals, but it lost momentum as the novelty of its motion controller faded. Sales of the new Wii U have been slow.
"A bold step forward for PlayStation"
Group chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., and Mark Cerny appeared in a plaid shirt and jeans as he touted the ease in which computer programmers will be able to write games for the new system. He says that with so many devices around, the value of having a powerful computer on a single chip has diminished. Instead, Sony is building the new PlayStation on top of a traditional PC architecture, and in doing so, game creators will have an easier time developing games.
Just before announcing the PlayStation 4, Andrew House, president and group chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment referred to "a moment of truth and a bold step forward for PlayStation and the company." He says Sony is looking to offer powerful opportunities to connect and play, including on mobile through a companion PlayStation Vita released last year.
Release date
Rumours this week of price points for Sony's new games console may not be confirmed today, with some gaming experts expecting that price details and even features of the PlayStation 4 to be announced later.
Some analysts are tipping the release of the PlayStation 4 to be before Christmas this year, although the PS3 was announced about 18 months before it hit the market.
PS4 is seven years in the making
It's been more than seven years since Sony launched the PlayStation 3 and the games market has changed dramatically in that time along with game players expectations with the development of smart phones, tablets and cloud services in that time.
The leaked pictures of what could be the controller for the new PlayStation suggests there is little change in the unit but there are reports the new PlayStation 4 will come standard with a camera for body motion control of games.
There are also rumours that the controller with have a button for social media, so that gamers can share video clips of their gaming glory.
The Wall Street Journal reports cloud computing will be a key feature of the new console, perhaps allowing people to save a game on the PS4 and then continue playing that game from the same point using another Sony device such as the Vita handheld game console or perhaps a Sony smartphone or tablet.
The gaming industry gathered in New York for the launch are looking to Sony to announce not just pricing details of the game console, release dates and games titles but also an explanation of how the new PlayStation 4 will fit into a range of products.

How Power Problems Can Ruin Your 3D Print Job
The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Inverter Capacity XXXX VA / XXXX Watts Determines How Many Watts Can Be Used From The UPS (How Large Of An Electrical Load). This Stays Constant Even If Extra Batteries Are Added. For Example, A 600 Watt UPS Can Run 10x 60 Watt Light Bulbs.
Extra Batteries Or External Battery Packs/Cabinets Increase Run Time (The Time Electronics Can Be Run On Battery Power). Extra Batteries Do Not Increase The Inverter Capacity (How Many Watts Can Be Used From The UPS). For Example, A 600 Watt UPS Can Still Only Run 10x 60 Watt Light Bulbs, But With Extra Batteries, It Can Run Those Light Bulbs Much Longer.

- Erholung (1) (remove)
Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that vacations help workers recover from occupational stress, but this effect typically fades within 2 weeks of returning to work. To proactively reduce occupational stress, regular engagement in recreational activities is vital. During vacations, workers intuitively engage in recovery behaviors. The gamified smartphone application (app), Holidaily, was developed to encourage workers to engage in recreational activities during and beyond their vacation and integrate them into daily working life. To date, evidence is scarce on whether vacation-related recovery can be enhanced with a gamified app and whether the user experience (UX) of an app can significantly impact health. Objectives: This study examined whether UX of a gamified app predicts users' improvement in recovery from work-related stress. Methods: Data were gathered from 171 Holidaily users, levels of recovery assessed 2 weeks pre- and post-vacation. The relationship between UX and change in recovery were examined by regression analysis. Results: Holidaily users experienced substantially prolonged recovery, where the apps UX uniquely predicted recovery. This improvement could not be explained by sociodemographic or work-related variables, vacation length or pre-vacation level of depression. Conclusions: Our findings support prior research demonstrating the effectiveness of apps promoting psychological health and are the first to reveal an app's effectiveness augmenting recovery from work-related stress. Findings also highlight that the health effectiveness of an app is dependent on its UX.

aaronnechama brauchte ein neues Anderes Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 26 Designs von 10 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Description: To develop home page banners for a lovely Day Care Center just outside NYC. This involves creating a large flash banner consisting of 5 transitions, and 3 smaller static banners.
We provide detailed instructions and stock images - designer will add their style and touch to the finished product. Anyone who loves kids will surely enjoy this job, and have a good shot at winning the prize.
This contest is a chance for a good designer to get a shot at being our steady graphics person, ensuring themselves a steady stream of work to come!
CURRENT HOMEPAGE DRAFT: http://www.cochlearimplantchild.com…-draft.jpg
Stock images for banner: http://picasaweb.google.com/aaronne…directlink
- As you create the banners, you may feel it necessary to make some design changes to the actual homepage design. FEEL FREE TO DO SO, you can access the PSD file of the home page draft at: http://www.cochlearimplantchild.com…t.psdFlash banner - across the top of the image in the indicated spot, consisting of 5 slides made up of the stock images corresponding to the slide number and the text associated with the images as indicated in the attached document
3 smaller banners - across the bottom in their respective locations, again using the indicated images and text
These banners serve to achieve the desired look of the site, which is to communicate a warm and friendly child care facility that we are, and to make a professional yet warm impression on prospective parents.
- View and download images from this album: http://picasaweb.google.com/aaronne…directlink
- Make the text come in with some animation for each image change.
- Each "slide" will need to be designed and the images will need to be edited, cropped, and/or cut out in photoshop as necessary.
- In most cases you can split the text into two lines if necessary.
- Since the area you will be working with is wide and short, I do not know if one image will be enough for each slide.
- I am including more than one image per "slide". Use as many as you need to create a nice and clean looking banner.
- All images are named with the number slide it is for. (When viewing the album click into each image and click on "more info" on the right side to see the file name.) The letter is to show my preference of which ones to rather use.
- Make tweaks to the homepage design in order to fit in with the new look that appears as a result of the new bannersSlide #1:
Text - "Grand Opening - Fall 2009"
Images and Graphics - Use the image of the exterior of the school building). Since the building is not complete you will need to superimpose an awning over the entrance with the schools logo on it. The rest of this "slide" should be designed to show the grand opening celebration. I am attaching an image of a girl holding balloons. You can use more balloons and streamers as necessary.
Slide #2:
Text - "We emphasize a child-centered, developmental approach and learning through experience." (If space permits w/o making it to cluttered you can add "Learning & Growth through Play")
Images & Graphics - One or Two images of children at play. You can add blocks etc. as necessary.
Slide #3
Text - "We promote a family oriented environment, encouraging parent participation."
Images & Graphics - One or Two images of child w/parent. You need to cut out background.
Slide #4
Text - "Providing children with the opportunity to explore and learn about the diversity of their community."
Images & Graphics - I am including images of 7 children, boys and girls, of different ages. You do not need to use all of them. I did label them in order of importance. Perhaps you can cut out these pictures in circles ( head and shoulders only) and put all circles in a cluster or collage.
Slide #5
Text - "Nurturing children in a safe, fun, and loving environment."
Images & Graphics - Two images of children with parents
Following is the information for the design of the three small banners below the flash banner.1) "Our Philosophy" - use image of teacher and child . Cut out of white background, o.k. to crop bottom as necessary.2) "Our Programs" - use image of child. Cut out black background. On left side of image put a small bulleted list as follows: - Infant - Toddler - Preschool - Pre - K - Kindergarten - School-Age - Summer3) "Our Blog" - I don't have an image for this one. Under header put "School Development & Construction News". Maybe a picture of a tractor as a backdrop behind the text would be nice.
- Do not robotically follow the instuctions to the letter, rather show your artistic talent in creating these banners. Don't be afraid to express your opinion in your designs, we will follow up with feedback along the way to help you out.
- Make sure the new design fits well with the homepage draft, otherwise feel free to tweak the design of the homepage itself in order to match it
- Remember, we are in this together - your success is ours as well. We want you to win!

Popular Petting Zoo Under Investigation For Alleged Animal Cruelty, Drug Violations | News
Title (Max 100 Characters)
VIENNA, Va. (WUSA) - The Reston Zoo is a popular petting zoo for families and also hosts birthday parties for children. It houses a variety of animals, such as goats and camels and chickens and emus. And, until recently, a Wallaby, which looks like a small kangaroo.
But Thursday morning, Fairfax County Police executed a search warrant after an employee at the zoo said the zoo director had drowned a sick Wallaby as a means of euthanasia. In The search warrant, the employee told the officer he'd put the Wallaby in a crate, and later observed the empty crate next to a water spigot with a five gallon bucket of water.
The warrant says the employee jumped into a dumpster and found a trash bag containing the deceased wallaby which was profusely wet.
The officer wrote that the director said she euthanized the Wallaby by injection with a drug called Beauthanasia. But, the officer found no blood at the supposed injection site and noted that the dead animal was wet. The director told the officer that they routinely wash and rinse the bodies.
An employee who spoke to nine news now off camera says she's doesn't believe the allegation and supports the director.
If the director did euthanize the animal with an injection, that's also a problem for the Zoo. The officer who led the search found that the Reston Zoo is not permitted to perform euthanasia because it has not completed the required protocol, training, and certification required.
And here are more problems...this is a list of the drugs police seized. They include Ketamine, a controlled tranquilizer used by veterinarians, which again, the zoo does not have a permit to carry.
No charges have been filed at this point. 9NewsNows tried to reach the zoo director, but did not receive a call back.

Is it possible for a human to fathom the true depths of reality and existence?
If the universe is finite, what would beyond the edge of the universe be like?
What is the best path to find truth; science, math, art, philosophy, or something else?
As more and more is being discovered about quantum physics, we become less and less able to comprehend the nature of reality. Is this something temporary and our minds will adapt and begin to understand this new reality or is it possible that the human mind will soon reach its limits of comprehension? If it's only temporary, is there is a limit to what the human mind can comprehend? If we are reaching our limits, how do we continue to study our reality?
Is there inherent order in nature or is it all chaos and chance?

Is happiness just chemicals flowing through your brain or something more?
Why are humans so susceptible to magical thinking?
If every neuron in a human was accurately simulated in a computer, would it result in human consciousness?
Is it possible that some animals are self-aware and think about their ability to think?
How do you define consciousness?
Is it possible to prove that other people besides yourself have consciousness?
How conscious do you think animals are?
Assuming evolution is correct, do you think that if humans went extinct another species as intelligent as humans would evolve? If life exists long enough on a planet, is intelligence and consciousness inevitable?
Would it be more frightening to discover that humans are the most advanced species in the universe or that we are far from being the most advanced species in the universe?
How would you define genius?
There is zero chance that ALL your firmly and dearly held beliefs are true. So, which of your beliefs are most likely to be wrong and which are most liable to be true?

Why are humans so confident in beliefs that can't be proven?
If all your memories were erased, what kind of person would you be?
Why do humans have such a strong urge to distract ourselves from the real world?
What is the benefit of consciousness from an evolutionary stand point?

Is it possible that someone's genes might affect their political leanings? If no, why not? If so, what would be the ramifications?
Can rational thought exist without language?
Would selectively breeding an animal such as a dog based on intelligence, increase its intelligence over time? If so, how intelligent could dogs become? If not, how does intelligence emerge in a species?
Are there limits to human creativity?
Why do we resist doing things that we know are good for our well-being while craving things that are detrimental to our well-being?
Is it be possible for humans to create something completely novel and new that is based on nothing that previously existed? Or is human creativity just rearranging and building on previous ideas?
If there existed a perfect clone of you, would it also be you? Would it act in exactly the same manner as you (like a mirror) or would it act differently? If it acted differently then would it still be you? At what point would it not be you?
Would you be able to tell if time had been altered in some way?
Your perception of the world is just what your brain constructs for you from the signals sent by your senses. Plus, there is a slight delay, so you aren't even experiencing the simulation in real time. What would it be like if humans could perceive what the world is actually like and do it in real time? Also, what are the ramifications of every single person's reality being a little different and unique to them?
If language influences how we perceive color, what other things could languages be changing our perception of?
Is a sense of humor a byproduct of consciousness or something else entirely?
Are intelligence and happiness tied together in any way? If you are highly intelligent, is it more likely that you'll be more, or less happy?
Human memory has been shown to be incredibly unreliable. With that in mind, how do you know which of your memories are genuine and which have been altered or made up?
Different people and different organisms perceive reality in vastly different ways. With that in mind, what is real and what is just our perception of reality? Or does every organism live in its own personal reality?
Ethics and morality philosophical questions
When, if ever, is taking a human life justified?
Can animals have morals?
Without religion would people become more, less, or be equally morally corrupt?
If humanity was put on trial by an advanced race of aliens, how would you defend humanity and argue for its continued existence?
What rights does every human have? Do those rights change based on age?
Do animals have rights and do those rights extend to all animals or do the rights change based on the complexity of the animal?
Is justice a human construct or is it independent of humans?
Why do people expect a universe full of randomness to be fair?
With no laws or rules to influence your behavior, how do you think you would behave?
What's the difference between justice and revenge?

What would be the most ethical way to give away five million dollars?
Are people ethically obligated to improve themselves?
Is privacy a right?
At what point is overthrowing a government ethical, considering all the violence a revolution usually entails?
Can morality ever be objective or is it always subjective? If it can be objective, in what instances? If it's always subjective, how do we decide whose concept of morality is correct?
Are intentions or outcomes more important when judging whether actions are moral?
Should there be limitations on the right to free speech?
If it was discovered that most animals were conscious of their existence and eventual death, what would be the ramifications of that discovery?
Should euthanasia be legal? Why or why not?
If scientists could accurately predict who was more likely to commit crimes, what should society do with that information?

Is it just and right to deny entry to a country when doing so probably means death for the immigrant and their family?
Should we terraform planets if it means that we may be destroying undiscovered microscopic alien life?
Does anonymity encourage people to misbehave or does it reveal how people would choose to act all the time if they could?
What is the most fertile soil for hatred? Fear, ignorance, jealousy, or something else entirely? Is it possible that some people are genetically predisposed to hatred?
If doing something good for others makes us feel good, can there ever be such a thing as pure altruism?
What is your definition of evil?
Do all people have equal value regardless of their actions or is a person's value based on their actions?
Why are humans so fascinated by mass murderers if their actions are universally considered evil and vile?
As people, we feel our moral obligation weaken with physical as well as emotional distance from individuals in need. For example, you're more likely to help someone dying of hunger at your feet than someone dying of hunger in another country. How does this human trait of morality dependent on distance shape our world?
If I steal a loaf of bread from you and eat it, when does the bread itself cease to be yours and becomes mine?

What should the role of a government be, what boundaries and limitations should it have?
Is poverty in society inevitable?
How should we measure the productivity of a society?
What would a utopia be like, how would it function and continue to exist?
Do you think there will ever be a global government? If a world government did come to power, assuming it wasn't particularly cruel or evil, would it be a good or bad thing?
What is the biggest threat to the social contract in our country?
Is it more or less difficult to be successful in the modern world than it was in the past (10, 50, 100, or 1,000 years ago)?
Could societies exist without a way to transfer value (i.e. without money or a barter system)?
What would happen if a maximum income of was implemented?
What will the economy of wealthy countries look like in 50 to 100 years?
What do you think the long-term effects of so many people being glued to their screens will be?
If all humans want the same basic things, why is there so much violence and strife between people?

text: A flock of geese, a parade of floats, a faux Eiffel Tower, and Kate Bosworth\u2014all this (and cycling models!) hailed the arrival of Sonia Rykiel pour H&M at Paris' Grand Palais last December. First to hit shelves: a line of saucy lingerie; now, a collection of sure-to-sell-out knitwear that captures the essence of Rykiel's Saint Germain woman. Created by the designer's daughter, Nathalie, the pieces fuse her mother's famous black stripes with intoxicating poppy colors for a new generation. "We wanted to give the collection a fresh, happy mood," Nathalie says. And just like Carrie Bradshaw in her Rykiel top upon first landing in Paris, now we can all have our moment on the Seine.

- This article is about the acting unit. For the All My Circuits character, see Calculon (All My Circuits).
Calculon was an acting unit most famous as the star of the hit robot soap opera All My Circuits. He has also appeared in films, including The Magnificent Three, for which he was nominated for an Oscar at the 1074th Academy Awards. In 3012, Calculon was killed in the World Acting Championship.
Throughout his career, he had lived a secret life unknown to the public. Calculon claimed to be 27 years old, but he was actually almost 1000 (2ACV18). He started his life humbly as a motorized service arm working on Project Satan. He was later offered acting talent through a deal with the Robot Devil, who collected on that bargain in 3004 by asking Calculon to give up his ears (4ACV18). He made his way to being many of history's great acting robots, including Acting Unit 0.8, Thespa-mat, and David Duchovny. For most of these thousand years, he was also a Were-Car, until Fry and Leela broke the curse by destroying the original were-car.
At some point in his career he became acquainted with the works of Harold Zoid, whom he came to idolize (3ACV08). He was presented with the opportunity to work under Zoid's direction on The Magnificent Three, with the promise that he would win an Oscar for his work on the film. When he was not nominated, he threatened Dr. Zoidberg, Bender, and his idol Harold Zoid with death. Through Zoidberg's manipulation, he was nominated for Best Actor but ultimately lost to Zoid (again, through Zoidberg's manipulation).
In 3004, he was invited at the Late Night with Humorbot 5.0, where he met Coilette from Robonia, winner of five gold medals. He fell in love with her, not knowing she was actually Bender who changed his sex. They dated, and he asks Coilette to marry him. The wedding's day, Coilette faked his death, having suffered of African Hydraulic Fever. Calculon then starred in Coilette: A Calculon Story to honor his old love's memory (4ACV13).
He is a member of the League of Robots and, for a time, was it's leader. Under his leadership the organization remained lenient on it's official human-killing plank. After Bender joined in 3008, and was caught helping his human friends escape during Yivo's universe-wide mating (despite his frequent anti-human tirades), Calculon and the rest of the League mocked Bender (TBwaBB). Bender challenged Calculon to a duel and won, vaporizing Calculon's arm. Calculon resigned his leadership in the organization.
In 3010, he was directing a disaster film, but most of the props and the actors were presumably destroyed and killed in a real disaster in shooting the first scene (6ACV08).
In 3012, Calculon consumed a bottle of food colouring, which is fatal to robots, in an attempt to defeat Langdon Cobb in the World Acting Championship. Despite his sacrifice, Cobb still won the championship. The Volume 7 commentaries essentially confirm he will be revived during the season 7 episode "Calculon 2.0".
Calculon was a skilled actor who is programmed to be very busy. He is idolized by many people, including Bender, and he can be extremely self-centered. Calculon's acting talent seemed to have infused itself into his everyday life, and he speaks very melodramatically. He could be driven to violence when he doesn't get his way, such as when he was not nominated for an Oscar after appearing in The Magnificent Three and threatened to murder Zoidberg, Zoid, and Bender. However, he is also incredibly gullible. He hired Bender as an actor on All My Circuits because he believed "the audience" was rejecting the actors trying out for the show, when it was just Bender right outside the casting room yelling and disparaging everyone who came before him.
Known filmography
- TV shows
- Films
- All My Circuits: The Movie (3001)
- The Magnificent Three (3002)
- Coilette: A Calculon Story (3004)
- Space Boy in Outer Space (cancelled)
- Hydraulic Shaft (Unknown (possibly 3006)
- Catastrophe Beach Party (3010) (director)
- Delayed and Over Budget 2 (3010) (actor, also probably in the first Delayed and Over Budget)
Additional Info
- He owned a big house in Hollywood.
- He owned an enormous yacht named "Calculon's Talent" in the pool of which he sails a large yacht named "Calculon's Pride".
- He enjoyed hot showers.
- He tended to see life as a huge soap opera.
- Bender once worked as his hot water boiler in Hollywood. Bender was also his Official Stalker at one point.
- He ran over Judge Whitey some time prior to The Beast with a Billion Backs, and was sentenced to community service.
- He states explicitly in Into the Wild Green Yonder that his operating system is Windows Vista, and hence encounters an error in his programming seconds later.
- This suggests that his OS had remained the same since his days as an assembly arm to death, which would date his assembly between 2007 and 2009 when Vista was the current Windows OS. Moreover as Project Satan is a military project and the US Army switched to Vista in 2009[1] and with Windows 7's release, it is likely his assembly was in 2009 making his age 1011. Fans are further befuddled because of the television broadcast of Into the Wild Green Yonder. where the mention of Windows Vista was edited to say Windows 7.
- Calculon is featured on a Pez dispenser that Bender once stole.
- He seemed to be friends with The Robot Devil.
- On 26 March 2012, the episode title "Calculon 2.0" was registered on the U.S. Copyright Catalog.[2]
- Regardless of his apparent death in "The Thief of Baghead", David X. Cohen confirmed that Calculon would be part of a Season 7 story arc, suggesting that Calculon faked his death or will be reincarnated or resurrected.[3]
Robot Devil: Calculon, old friend, I'm afraid I need your ears.
Calculon: Well I do owe you for giving me this unholy [melodramatically] acting talent!
Calculon: Oh, how cruel and melodramatic fate is. [shouting] Why?
Calculon: NOOOOOOOO!
Coilette (Bender): But you always said you'd rather burn down a convent than give up show business.
Calculon: I always said many things.
Calculon: Honey unit, I'm home. [He gasps.] Monique!
[Monique is in bed with Boxy. She pulls the sheets up around her.]
Monique: Calculon!
Boxy: [beep]
Calculon: Oh, how I wish I could believe that. You may be my evil half-brother, but there's no law against murdering the other half!
Calculon: That was so terrible, I think you gave me cancer! I don't care how popular you are, you will never work on my show!
Fry: Yay, Bender!
Leela: We demand Bender!
Calculon: However, you've got the job.
Calculon: Nay, I respect and admire Harold Zoid too much to beat him to death with his own Oscar.
Monique: Calculon! But I thought you were.....
Calculon: Egyptian?!
Calculon: [thinking] I'd like to thank the Academy, my agent and most of all, my operating system, Windows Vista, for everything it-- [crashes] [mechanic voice] System error.

Кем: Mike Clements
Flash Voyager GS is a large-capacity, high performance USB 3.0 flash drive in a sleek, scratch-resistant brushed metal enclosure.

Flash Voyager GS is compatible with Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. No drivers are necessary… just plug it in. In short, if your desktop or notebook has a USB 3.0 or 2.0 port, it's compatible with the GS.
The loop at the end allows for attaching to most key rings.

I often take notes and like here people comments and concerns as it helps me with future events. I agree that even from a non player for the Ace Race, I did not like seeing such big group. Do people like the idea that I require a limit of no more than 8 per card?Mark Mills, I did overlook your Ace, so yours counts. Several of the others that I have been told about after the fact where not marked to indicate an Ace so and Ace was not awarded. If they are not parked, there is no way for me to know if there is an Ace, especially since our format can easily get 3 or more points without getting an Ace.
Now I just need to decide if I will practice with my buzzz or my roc to get ready for next month
have groups of 10 or more weight and be staggered together so that they are all is one big group . . . because the large groups are fun to listen to and I didn't mean to come off as a complete jerk

SeniorNet volunteers Jim Burke, Claire Kerman, Co-coordinator Moss Rawn, Co-coordinator and founder Slava Vero, Legis. Lou D'Amaro and founder Don Stone.
By Karen Klafter
Thousands of senior citizens throughout the county can use computers and surf the internet without fear or apprehension thanks to the volunteers at Suffolk County's SeniorNet, a local chapter of the National volunteer senior citizen organization that was recently honored by Suffolk Legis. Lou D'Amaro (D-Huntington Station) for being named Exemplary Learning Center of the Year.
Under the direction of Co-coordinators Slava Vero and Moss Rawn, Suffolk's SeniorNet Chapter, which has taught computer skills to 5,000 seniors since its founding ten years ago, was selected as the top chapter out of 130 nationwide. D'Amaro presented SeniorNet with a proclamation in recognition of the award at their recent Spring registration, where senior citizens enrolled in courses on subjects ranging from basic computer skills to advanced design.
The classes are all taught by seniors at a pace designed especially for them. The organization also runs an intergenerational program where local youths interact with the members in classroom settings, and is about to launch a new program for homebound seniors.
"While computers can seem scary to those who are unfamiliar with the technology, SeniorNet leads seniors on an exciting journey that can enhance and improve their lives," D'Amaro said. "It is a privilege to honor and thank them for opening up this whole new world for their fellow senior citizens."
For more information or to find out about the next scheduled registration for classes at the Huntington Family Service League Center, call SeniorNet at 631-427-3700, ext. 235.
Karen Klafter is a legislative aide to D'Amaro.

Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya.
Last night Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong.
Last night Japanese forces attacked Guam.
Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands.
Last night Japanese forces attacked Wake Island.
This morning the Japanese attacked Midway Island.
Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.
As Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense.
Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us.
No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.
I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger.
With confidence in our armed forces-with the unbounded determination of our people-we will gain the inevitable triumph-so help us God.
I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, 7 December, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire.

God Bless You, Phil Jacobsen
Mr. Phil Jacobsen,
WWII code-breaker and regular contributor to our Pearl Harbor Attacked message
board, was within two chapters of finishing a book on Navy cryptology when he
passed away Aug. 22, 2006 at his home in Otay Mesa. He was 82. Read on ...
By Jack Williams
San Diego UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER
August 31, 2006
Half a century removed from his code-breaking assignments of World War II, Phil Jacobsen began to lend historical perspective to the role of cryptology in military intelligence.
Combining his experience with research, he became a recognized authority on the topic. He shared his knowledge as a consultant on a "Secrets of War" television documentary and contributed articles to cryptology and history journals.
Much of his writing countered controversial charges that code-breaking provided U.S. officials with advance knowledge of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
Mr. Jacobsen was within two
chapters of finishing a book on Navy cryptology when he died on Aug. 22 at his
home in Otay Mesa. He was 82.
In the December
2004 edition of Intelligence & National Security, Mr. Jacobsen continued to
hammer the theme: "These revisionist claims are fraught with a wide range of
serious errors that render them baseless."
