Singh said it cannot be denied that the accused in the Mecca Masjid and Samjhauta Express blasts were related to right-wing organisations like the RSS.
"The list of 10 names which have come up as the accused in the Mecca Masjid and the Samjhauta Express blasts have been associated with the RSS at some point," he told reporters here.
"Nobody can deny that," he said, adding that there are statements by witnesses to prove this.
Shinde had referred to "Hindu terrorism" and "saffron terrorism" during the Congress conclave in Jaipur Sunday.
"After investigations, we have seen that be it the BJP or the RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh), their training camps are promoting Hindu terrorism. This is a matter of concern. We are keeping a strict eye on it," Shinde had said in his speech.

"Managing and Thriving in a Down Market"
In an interview posted May 1, 2009 on Bigthink.com, Booz & Company Chief Marketing and Knowledge Officer Tom Stewart (North America) said the biggest opportunities in the current recession could be in "the continued rise of not only of wealth in places like India and China and Brazil and Russia but also the continuing rise of great global competitors." As a result, Stewart expects to see great companies emerge from those markets as well as a shifting of the competitive landscape. "We're going have to learn a lot of new names," he said. For company leaders, that could translate to more opportunities. "You should know what your long-term strategy is and then see how the recession may create opportunities or create moments when you can behave opportunistically in furtherance of the strategy that you think is right," added Stewart.

London, March 30 (ANI): New radar images from NASA's Cassini probe have suggested that slushy water from a hidden ocean may be pooling onto the icy surface of Saturn's moon Titan, thus bolstering the case for the existence of volcanoes on its surface.
Titan's exterior, where the temperature is around -180 degree Celsius, is thought to be mostly water-ice, but it may be a different story deep down.
Variations in the moon's rate of rotation suggest an ocean could lurk below.
An area of Titan called Hotei Arcus appears to fluctuate in brightness on timescales of several months, and in 2005, Robert Nelson of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, and colleagues, suggested this might be the result of "cryovolcanic" eruptions of water from below.
Others argued that the flickers were caused by the moon's hazy atmosphere.
The cryovolcanism idea was bolstered in 2008, when observations of Hotei Arcus by a radar instrument aboard NASA's Cassini probe revealed structures that resembled lava flows.
Some opponents of the idea still argued these might be deposits of sediment, carried by a flow of methane in the past.
Now, according to a report in New Scientist, radar images from Cassini have allowed scientists led by Randolph Kirk of the US Geological Survey in Flagstaff, Arizona, to create a 3D view of the area.
It turns out that the sinuous structures tower 200 meters above their surroundings.
They say that this is consistent with the structures having formed when slushy water and ammonia squirted onto the surface and froze, but that they could not have been produced by a flood of liquid methane depositing sediment.
The structures may have formed when slushy water and ammonia squirted onto the surface and froze.
If slush volcanoes have been erupting recently, Titan would join a select group of solar system objects - Earth and Io - known to be volcanic at present.
As for life existing in the ocean below, Kirk said, "It's conceivable life could be going on down there." (ANI)

Department of Internal Medicine, Hallym University College of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea
Inhalation injury is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in burned patients. We performed this study to know the severity of lower airway injury due to inhalation and the influence of these airway injury on early mortality in severely burned patients.
From Jan, 2004 to Jul, 2004, major burn patients with inhalation injury were enrolled prospectively. Bronchoscopic biopsy was done either at carina or at right (or left) 2nd carina. The pathologic grades of biopsy was classified as follows: 0 = normal or minimal epithelial injury; 1 = loss of cilia or moderate epithelial injury; 2 = severe epithelial injury or basement membrane alteration; 3 = extensive ulceration. We analyzed APACHE II scores, P/F ratio, 30-day ICU mortality and their correlation with pathologic grades.
68 patients (M=49, F=19) were enrolled. In survivors (40 cases) and non-survivors (28 cases), there were no statistically significant difference was seen among the patient's age, sex, initial COHb, APACHE II scores and PaO2/FiO2 ratio. But the percent of total body surface area (%TBSA) burn and APACHE II scores were higher in non-survivors than in survivors (p<0.05, p<0.05). In total patients, there were no significant difference between the %TBSA and the pathologic grades of airway (p=0.056) but significant increased in trends of pathologic grade as increasing the %TBSA (p=0.008). There were not correlation between pathologic grade of airway and APACHE II scores, PaO2/FiO2 ratio in survivors and non-survivors. In survivors, significant negative correlation was seen between the %TBSA and the pathologic grade of airway (r=-0.442, p=0.004) but, not in non-survivors (r=-0.226, p=0.25). Also, there were no significant difference in 30-day ICU mortality according to each pathologic grade (p=0.708).
Increasing burn size concomitant with inhalation showed increase in trends of severity of airway injury, but further study may be needed whether the extents of lower airway injury due to inhalation affect on early mortality in severely burned patients.
The extents of initial airway injury due to inhalation may not be sustained.

An all new SUV, an all new generation, goal to make a highly capable off-roader, which is lighter, efficient and has better on road characteristics. The Land Rover Discovery has been a highly capable off roader, however it had grown old in design, interior styling and was too heavy to be efficient. Seems like the British automaker had the perfect recipe for the new-generation 2017 Land Rover Discovery. Read further to know more about this new SUV, we share all the details in our preview.
2017 Land Rover Discovery Design
The new aluminium platform of the Discovery meant it will not just be lighter but even have better performance and efficiency. This new SUV finally gets a monocoque chassis, which also helps to reduce its weight further. In terms of dimensions, there isn't a major change in the size, however the new Discovery does feel a lot more stylish and aggressive. The sleek headlamps along with a Range Rover like front grille, and there are cuts on the front bumper. Clamshell hood continues, while the step up root too exists in the new design. Discovery has seen a drastic change in its design, not just to make it modern but even premium.
New LR platforms are lighter, and hence the new Discovery for the first-time gets an aluminium body and a monocoque. This has reduced its weight by 480 kilograms. 85% of the body is made of aluminium of which 43% is recycled. This says a lot about Discovery, which was a gas guzzled and now seems to be the next most efficient model on offer.

2017 Land Rover Discovery Interiors
Finally! All new interiors on the Discovery. The outgoing version did have a very functional styling, and so does the new one. But this feels premium and plush. If you have been in a Discovery Sport, then it won't be a new place for you, and yes the steering wheel seems to be borrowed from the Range Rover. Land Rover has ensured the addition of multiple features that makes the Discovery at par with the other. A large touchscreen system comes with Apple CarPlay, reversing camera and maps.
Things don't end there. The 2017 Land Rover Discovery comes with 5+2 seating arrangement for the first time. Terrain Response 2 has been introduced and InControl Pro as well. With a boot space of 1,137 litres when the third row is flipped down and 2,406 litres when even the second row is toppled down. There will be a long wheelbase version of the Discovery in the near future. This will be a more luxurious version.

2017 Land Rover Discovery Engine
A lighter body weight means the 2017 Land Rover Discovery can now accommodate four-cylinder engines. Hence, it gets a 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel mill that churns 237bhp of maximum power and 500Nm of whooping torque. Then there is also a 3.0-litre V6 petrol and even a diesel. Petrol churns about 336bhp, while the diesel has an army of 255 horses. There is no hiding that the new Discovery shall get a 5.0-litre V8 on an SVR version that should be crafted by JLR's SVO department. At the same time, a hybrid too is in the making. This will reduce the carbon emissions.
2017 Land Rover Discovery Technology
There are up to four 12V charging points and nine USB sockets too. The Auto Access Height helps to decrease the ride-height by up to 40 mm for passengers to enter or exit the vehicle. The infotainment system comes connected to 14 Meridian speakers that have a digital surround sound system. All-Terrain Progress Control helps the driver to crawl the SUV at a constant speed on different terrains.
The InControl Touch Pro this time has a 10-inch screen this time. This even gets 3G Wi-Fi connectivity that can hotspot up to 8 devices. This even gets 6 charging ports in the car and 4 iPad holders as well.

I had a Dr. appt today and everything looked great EXCEPT that my blood pressure was low. My Dr didn't seem at all concerned but I've never had blood pressure that low. It was 90/60. I know its not CRAZY low, but from what I've read, it is the reason I am dizzy, and sometimes feel like I'm going to pass out. Apparently it is a pregnancy thing?? Anyone else experienced this?
Yep. I do every time. It comes and goes, and seems to coincide with increases in blood volume. Drinking lots and lots of water, and being sure to take a good iron supplement helps me tons. :)
"If you keep doing the same things you've always done, you'll keep getting the same results you've always gotten."
That was mine the whole time I was pg with my daughter. I'm borderline low normally, and pg made it even lower. I think 90/60 is fine. If given the choice, I'd much rather be low than high. High is very dangerous.
Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. ~Dylan Thomas
I do too! Mine routinely is 100/65 but goes as low as 90/50 during pregnancy.
Where are you in your pregnancy? It is physiologically normal for BPs to dip below your non-pregnant baseline during the 2nd trimester and then rise back to normal for you during the 3rd.
To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

Mine has been all over the place: 100/52 at one visit to 118/62 at another. I have naturally low bp usually, but my doc doesn't seem worried about the fluctuations. I agree with the PP that low bp is much better than high bp. Just be careful when standing up and so on so you don't fall. I've had weird vertigo a few times that is uncomfortable, but otherwise it's not a big deal.

To reach the San Antonio area with the Gospel of Jesus in the Anglican-Catholic Tradition.
We won't waver on Scriptural, Spirit-led principles of excellence in life, family, community, business practice, worship, and teaching.
Because we won't waver from Scripture and the Spirit's leading, we're committed to active, pragmatic, and serious lives in Faith, practicing Jesus' sacrificial love and unity of Spirit everywhere, but especially in the parish, speaking the truth in love and honoring one another above ourselves.
Our authenticity means we are full of Christ's Abundant life through His redeeming love, spreading that Good News—His Gospel—with gusto, by example, word, and action.
We're Scriptural, Authentic, and Vigorous because we're filled by a personal and indwelling Holy Ghost, demonstrating absolute commitment to lives transformed by God's power.
Our worship is riveted to reformed but classical Anglican catholic practice, inerrant Holy Scripture, a present and active Holy Ghost, and the principles of over 21 centuries of Christian tradition.
Since Jesus is our Lord, we seek His Kingdom first and will never compromise on Scripture, authenticity, vigor, inspiration, orthodoxy, or the course our Lord sets for us by His Word and Holy Ghost.

Kano, Apr 23: Nigerian troops were forced to retreat from Boko Haram's Sambisa Forest stronghold in the restive northeast after a landmine blast killed one soldier and three vigilantes, security sources said today.
Military top brass said yesterday that soldiers were conducting offensives "in some forest locations" in the area after it was announced last week that operations were imminent. The Sambisa Forest is located in the state of Borno, some 80 kilometres (50 miles) from the town of Chibok, from where more than 200 schoolgirls were kidnapped in April last year.
It has been claimed the 219 schoolgirls still being held were initially kept in the former game reserve, although others have said they may have been split up and moved to Chad or Cameroon. Defence spokesman Chris Olukolade said in a statement that a senior Boko Haram commander was killed, as well as a number of militants who attacked a patrol.
"The operations especially in forest locations are progressing in defiance of obstacles and landmines emplaced by the terrorists," he added. But progress has been severely hindered because of improvised explosive devices, a civilian vigilante involved in the operation told in an account backed by a security source.
"Boko Haram has buried landmines all over the routes leading to their camps in the forest, which is no doubt a huge obstacle retarding the military offensive against them," he said. Troops withdrew just five kilometres from Boko Haram's main camp in the densely forested area because of landmines.
"We decided to turn back since the route was unsafe. As we were driving back, one of the vehicles carrying CJTF (Civilian Joint Task Force) hit a mine," he added. "A soldier and three CJTF were killed while another soldier was injured. We trudged along and made it back to Bama yesterday."
The vigilante added: "There are no soldiers in Sambisa right now. We all returned to Bama after the horrifying experience of manoeuvring through minefields."
There was no immediate response from the military, which with its military coalition partners Chad, Niger and Cameroon has driven out Boko Haram from captured towns in recent weeks.
"Boko Haram are in large numbers in Sambisa," said the vigilante, who requested anonymity for security reasons. "All their fighters who were pushed out of Bama, Dikwa, Gwoza and Damboa (in Borno state) all moved to Boko Haram camps in Sambisa," he added.

9.00pm, somewhere: After last night's cacophony of film classics (mainly film classics involving Bryan Adams and other similar artists), there were artists closer to the brink of 'not being in this competition anymore' than ever before.
But who might that be?
Are you holding your breath? I wouldn't, if I were you, there's an hour to go, and the mimeathon to get through first, and you don't want to pass out before THAT happens. I'll be taking the action in ten minute chunks as usual though. So here we go...
9.10pm; the first ten minutes and what happened in them: After a breathtakingly creaking intro directed by, scripted by and starring Quentin Tarantino that has done little but deflate any existing excitement we had for Inglourious Basterds, they quickly got to the heart of the matter: yes, that car advert.
In this week's car advert, six of the idols came alive on magazine covers stacked on a magazine stand, as an amazed and charming Matt Giraud watched fromt he pavement. The subtext was clear: they may have pianos that duel, but they don't have this kind of magic back in Kalamazoo! Also: you should buy a car!
After staring at the for a while, in weirdly lustful fashion, Matt grabs the magazines, leaves a paltry amount of change for the magazine vendor, then hops in a cheap looking sports car and drives off.
"Maniac", from Flashdance, it is, and with it the growing wish that they'd go back to miming the whole thing. This is live now, is it? Certainly you can hear them laughing as they're doing it, being slightly out of breath, and putting 400 extra notes in where you only remember there being the one. Still; it was a good version, they did very well, and my only real criticism would be that they weren't all wearing high-legged leotards and tan tights: because that, at least would be funny.
9.20pm; what happened in the second ten minutes: After an advert break, we watch a film of the idols going to a film premiere! We then watch an extended preview of the film, "17 Again" which is basically Big or Vice Versa for people who haven't met those films yet, and stars Zac Ephron, from the High School Musical franchise.
We then cut back to the studio, and meet Zac, who is sitting in the audience, with teenaged girls lying in full swoon all around him. Not really, he's just sitting there.
More importantly, though, we start to build the bottom three. I'm betting Lil, Matt and ... hm ... well, both Allison and Anoop both seem to hang around down there; shall we say Allison?
As if he heard me, Ryan called Allison's name: and told her to sit down again. Because she's safe. Oh good.
Then he called on Adam Lambert: "Adam, Simon said your performance reminded him of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, were you offended by that?"
"No!" laughs Adam, seemingly surprised "I love that film! What? Did he mean it as an insult?"
Simon says he didn't, the liar....
It matters little: Adam is safe.
Then Seacrest turns to Anoop "You've been in the bottom three the last two weeks running. It's a hard place to be, isn't it?" he says, apparently sympathetic "... Well, you're there again!" he says, and takes the poor lad on the walk of shame across the stage. Nice, Ryan. Sensitive.
Anoop is in the bottom three. Again.
9.30pm: the third ten minutes ...
... are entirely taken up with adverts, a tribute to former contestant Jennifer Hudson (not in a 'she's dead' way, just in a 'she's very successful' way), and then the new single by the same. Then some more adverts (thirty-second-spot adverts, I mean, as opposed to the product and artist placement kind. We've had 29 minutes of those so far).
9.40pm: what happened in the fourth ten minutes
After talking to Anoop on the Stools of Doom (he's surprised and disappointed to be there, he says), Seacrest goes straight to the benches. Kris and Lil stand up: will the unusual choice of song finally shake the unshakable cute-boy Kris from his safe pedestal?
No. No it won't. Because it was lovely; and he's safe.
Lil, however, is in the bottom three.
Then he turns to Matt and Danny: Oh, Matt, my love, you might as well go and perch yourself on that Doomstool right now.
He asks Matt is he'd do anything differently ... Matt says he'd sing it straighter. No, Matt, that's what the judges think. What do YOU, think? It's so important to have your own thoughts, and ... Unsurprisingly, Danny's safe.
Matt Giraud, duelling pianist from Kalamazoo, is in the bottom three - can your fighting fingers save you this time, Giraud?
Slightly tipping into the next ten minutes, Seacrest brings the three into the middle: Anoop, Lil, and Matt. And tells them that one is safe ... it's Anoop.
Lil and Matt are the bottom two.
Were entirely taken up with Miley Cyrus. She was singing her new single, which is taken from her new movie.
(Well, it was mainly Miley Cyrus. There was also a great little fuck-up on the production side. Seacrest pointed at the bottom two, and asked Simon whether he'd save one. Simon said he thought he would, though it might be a surprise to that person who it might be. Who might it be, said Ryan? We'll find out when we come back... Then nothing happened. Five seconds and some blustering later, the cliffhanger finally got hung, and we went to adverts. Good old live TV)
10.00pm, what happened in the last ten minutes:
First: Lil was declared safe, which was a surprise ...
Then Matt sang his swan song; a reprise of Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman, by Bryan bloody Adams. It's always such a shame they have to sing their worst song, the song that got them in this position in the first place ... but he does, and widdly-notes all over the place, as ever.
There's frantic conversation going on meanwhile at the judges desk: first Paula and Kara are dancing, then suddenly they're in a huddle.
Then Matt stood before the judges.
Simon talked and talked and talked: and looked a little like he was being bullied into something but then, a magical thing happened ...
The MAGICAL JUDGES SAVE!!! They used it!
And they used it not on Lil, who I thought might be Simon's surprise: they used it on the one and only Duelling Pianist from Kalamazoo (although, to be fair, there's got to be at least one other one, otherwise who does he duel against ...)
So that's very exciting, and he cries, and the other potentidols jump up and down, and they cry ... and then Simon has to go and put his oar in...
"Wait wait!" he says "There's bad news. A) That means there's two people leaving next week. B) It's disco week"
Oy oy oy. That's bad news indeed.
Still, that was a bit of a shock. Right person to use that judes' save? Someone who's been in the bottom three three times, now? Any chance he WON'T just be straight out next week? We can hope not ... but ... well ...
Back next week to both find out, AND get our groove on.

Wounded Warrior Project's Soldier Ride
U-HAUL® is a staunch supporter of the Wounded Warrior Project and, since 2005, has sponsored one of their main programs, Soldier Ride, which is a rehabilitative cycling program for wounded war riors. For many combat veterans, Soldier Ride helps them take their first steps in their return to an active lifestyle.
Sunshine State Challenge
On Thursday, January 15, 2009, District 12 Area District Vice President (ADVP) Frank Grau, Marketing Company President (MCP) Mario Martinez, U-Haul Company of Miami (Co. 787), and the U-Haul Media and Public Relations Department joined the Wounded Warrior Project during the Soldier Ride Sunshine State Challenge in Miami, Florida. Grau and Martinez were given the honor of presenting one wounded veteran, Sergeant Adriel Gonzalez, with his very own brand-new, one-of-a-kind Trek bicycle on behalf of U-Haul. During Sergeant Gonzalez's second deployment to southern Afghanistan in 2007, he was wounded by an improvised explosive device (IED). Gonzalez suffered extensive damage to his left knee, which, unfortunately, ended his career in the infantry. Last year was Sergeant Gonzalez's first time participating in the Soldier Ride Sunshine State Challenge. It was then that he realized his overwhelming excitement for cycling. Since then, Sergeant Gonzalez's appreciation of cycling has helped him with his rehabilitation and has put him well on the road to recovery.
During the presentation of the bike, Grau expressed to Sergeant Gonzalez that on behalf of U-Haul and all of the freedom-loving Americans who support the Wounded Warrior Project and Soldier Ride, every time the new bike is taken out on the road, we want him to know that his dedication and commitment to our country will never be forgotten. "I have been to several Wounded Warrior Project events in Florida, and am always amazed at the dedication and perseverance these veterans continue to have for their country regardless of the wounds they may have sustained," stated ADVP Grau.
Grau and Martinez also expressed to Gonzalez that U-Haul System members hope this customized bike will allow him to take his love and appreciation for cycling to a whole new level.

This week (actually today) Jeremy went back in time and drug out the old DOSSHELL out of the 80's and early 90's and recounted Microsoft's rise as a software platform company. The personal computer caught on quickly with DOSSHELL getting replaced for Windows, then Windows 95 and so forth to the present. And while Jeremy has fond memories of Wing Commander I just cannot help but see his Kilrathi raise him a Privateer.
… so I installed a bump in your bump so you can bump while you bump.
Just ten days before Halloween 2003 the fifth stepson of Newton had an important report to write for his history class, so we think. Xzibit then proclaimed that Microsoft pimped DOS Auto. Wait, what is this? Did Jim put the bump in my bumping bumpday bump? (Who put the RAM in the eighty-eighty-six slot?) But yes it is true, it is amazing to see how far we, especially the old farts, have come.

The news out of Montreal is good, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is off to the production lines as the gold DVD has been stamped. That means that come August 23 you will be able to pick it up at stores or use the copy you pre-ordered through Steam. That doesn't give us any guarantees as to the quality of the game, though the trailers seem good and more importantly the gameplay previews do as well. With Eidos it is hard to say how good the dialog and story will be as they've been the makers of some of the worst and some of the best examples over the years. Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN better not have been lied to!
"Humans! The promised day has arrived. Some said it wasn't possible. Some said rude, badly-spelled things in capital letters. Others were simply impatient. No matter: it has happened. Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the third game in the series that has an awful lot to do with why an awful lot of us remain faithful, unswervingly loyal PC gamers to do this day, has gone gold. And I'm not just talking about its colour pallete. It is finished, Eidos Montreal have just revealed. Complete. Ready. Well, ready as it'll ever be – and that means its release date on August 23 is actually happening."

The clicky keyboard is back in a big way

Once you had to go digging through old keyboard graveyards to get your hands on a mechanical keyboard, or track down the rare and elusive Das Keyboard. Now many different peripheral companies offer mechanical keyboards, for instance Razer's new BlackWidow and BlackWidow Ultimate. This new breed of keyboards are not the familiar buckling-spring switches, instead they a combination of springs and metal clips to provide tactile feedback, the click being an optional feature. These two keyboards not only give you enough travel and resistance to provide tactile feedback for your fingers, they also included the click so that your ears don't feel left out of your typing experience. The difference in these two models lies in the Ultimate's programmable macro buttons which the basic model lacks. Read on to see if the Tech Report had heard enough by the end of the review, or would never go without the click again.
"We've tested both of Razer's clicky mechanical gaming keyboards to figure out whether they're worth the money—and hearing loss."

Tagged: qdos, msdos, microsoft
Back in the ancient days before the comment "Drop to command prompt" made sense as the command prompt a little known company called Microsoft bought QDOS and renamed it as MS DOS. That was also back when IBM was the be all and end all of 8086 (and 8080) processors and planned for their newly designed Personal Computer to run an OS called CP/M-86 but couldn't get a good enough deal on the licensing; which lead to Microsoft's product being adopted. It also lead to the Personal Computer catching on much more quickly and thoroughly than anyone predicted.
From that humble beginning came what was first used to slow your 386DX based computer enough to be able to control Wing Commander and now controls almost 90% of the PCs currently running and keeps techs employed world wide..
"Thirty years ago, on July 27 1981, Microsoft bought the rights for QDOS (Quick and Dirty Operating System) from Seattle Computer Products (SCP) for $25,000. QDOS, otherwise known as 86-DOS, was designed by SCP to run on the Intel 8086 processor, and was originally thrown together in just two months for a 0.1 release in 1980."

'Anonymous' Raids: List of 1000 IPs
Subject: General Tech | July 26, 2011 - 10:00 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: paypal, Anonymous
Recently there was a lot of news about alleged members of Anonymous getting arrested by the FBI across America. 40 search warrants were served against people accused of attacking Paypal from a list, provided by the company, of one-thousand IP addresses carrying the most traffic during the time period of Anonymous' "Operation Payback". Wired also has the affidavit from the July 19th search of a couple from Arlington, Texas and their son which includes the ability to seize electronic devices either allegedly used in the attack or contains evidence of the attack.
The importance of living up to your name.
While these searches did not necessarily lead to arrests and were with warrant the concept of linking an IP address with a person is often hotly debated. The "LOIC" tool, a program designed to direct a large amount of traffic at a computer often with the intent of diluting system resources from what the computer is supposed to do, gets its name from the Command and Conquer super weapon, the Low Orbit Ion Cannon. In many cases, traffic from LOIC is easily identifiable as it contains vanity strings as its attack payload and often comes from the user's personal IP address (not very anonymous); that said, there is nothing to say that the same effects could not be caused by one person controlling an army of a thousand or more virus-infected computers. While I am not commenting on the situations themselves, I do hope that the FBI had more evidence for their 40 warrants than just a random selection of addresses on that list.
Developer Watch: CUVI 0.5 released

Tagged: gpgpu, Developer Watch, CUVI
Code that can be easily parallelized into many threads have been streaming over to the GPU with many applications and helper libraries taking advantage of CUDA and OpenCL primarily. Thus for developers who wish to utilize the GPU more but are unsure where to start there are more and more options for libraries of functions to call and at least partially embrace their video cards. OpenCV is a library of functions for image manipulation and, while GPU support is ongoing through CUDA, primarily runs on the CPU. CUVIlib, which has just launched their 0.5 release, is a competitor to OpenCV with a strong focus on GPU utilization, performance, and ease of implementation. While OpenCV is licensed as BSD which is about as permissive a license as can be offered, CUVI is not and is based on a proprietary EULA.

The little plus signs are the computer tracking motion. CUVI (top; 33fps), OpenCV (bottom; 2.5fps)
(Video from CUVIlib)
Despite the proprietary and non-free for commercial use nature of CUVI they advertise large speedups for certain algorithms. For their Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi Feature Tracker algorithm when compared with OpenCV's implementation they report a three-fold increase in performance with just a GeForce 9800GT installed and 8-13x faster when using a high end computing card such as the Tesla C2050. Their feature page includes footage of two 720p high definition videos undergoing the KLT algorithm with the OpenCV CPU method chugging at 2.5 fps contrasted with CUVI's GPU-accelerated 33fps. Whether you would prefer to side with OpenCV's GPU advancements or pay CUVIlib to augment what OpenCV is not good enough for your needs at is up to you, but either future will likely involve the GPU.

There are speakers and then there are studio monitors, with the difference being quality. For most gamers and movie watchers there is no point in picking up a pair of studio quality monitors, not only because of the lack of a discerning ear but also because the audio source is unable to provide the quality these monitors need to perform. Much as Scotches or wines taste similar to the untrained palate, studio quality speakers are for professionals with professional level needs. If you are one, or simply want the best possible sound reproduction and are willing to spend $300+ for a pair of monitors then you should check out the M-Audio Studiophile CX5 Active Studio Reference Monitor review at ModSynergy. With a proper audio card and file as a source these monitors will equal a $1000 pair of monitors and are a great deal for those with the ears to enjoy them.

Today you will be reading the review of one of M-Audio's latest offerings on the market within their Studiophile lineup, the CX5 High-Resolution Active Studio Reference Monitor.

OCZ is never satisfied with the performance of their SSDs in general and their controllers specifically. After purchasing Indilinx to ensure that their controllers would be of high quality and designed to OCZ's specific needs, they've now been pushing Indilinx to improve on their controllers. That has lead to Everest, which has a dual core ARM processor and 400MHz DDR3 cache that can support up to 512MB. The controller is optimized for 8K writes which is perfect for the current flash utilized in SSDs. OCZ has also optimized the flash memory, developing Triple Level Cell (TLC) which has three layers as opposed to MLC which sports two. The controller will be backwards compatible, which is a good idea if OCZ wants to license the controller to other manufacturers, which makes sense as Everest should hit 200MT/s as compared to SandForce's current 166MT/s. There is more that this controller can do, click on over to The Register to read about it.
"OCZ is sampling a new flash controller that gives a picture of future solid state drives.
The company bought Indilinx for its solid state drive (SSD) controller technology in March this year and has now unveiled the Indilinx Everest controller platform.
It has a 6Gbit/s SATA III interface, a dual-core ARM processor and a number of enticing features, such as 3-bit multi-level cell (MLC) support. This is going to be called TLC, for triple-level cell, to distinguish it from today's MLC, which is 2-bit MLC."

Apple is da bomb! Vulnerability found in battery circuitry
Subject: Editorial, General Tech | July 25, 2011 - 10:24 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Malware, apple
Okay, so the title is more joke than anything else but security researcher Charlie "Safari Charlie" Miller discovered a vulnerability in Apple devices, sort of. This exploit, which appears to not actually be a security flaw and rather just an over-permissive design, allows an attacker to gain access to your battery control using one of two static company-wide passwords. Charlie has discovered many exploits in the past several years on the OSX and iOS platforms. One of the most high profile attacks he discovered involved a data-execution vulnerability in the iPhone's SMS handling: under certain conditions your iPhone could potentially confuse inbound text messages as code and run it with high permissions.
Malware assaults and battery charges.
(Image from Apple, modified)
So what does having the ability to write to a laptop's battery firmware mean? Firstly, remember the old advice of "Get a virus? Reinstall your OS!"? Well assuming you actually can perform a clean install without ridiculous hacking (thanks Lion) the battery controller can simply re-infect you if the attacker knows an exploit for your version of OSX. But how does the attacker know your current version of OSX? Well if you are installing from an optical disk they just need to know a Snow Leopard RTM exploit; unless of course you extract Lion from the Mac App Store and clean install using it – assuming the attacker does not know an exploit for Lion or simply just infects the reinstall media if you created it from the infected computer. True, malware is about money so it is highly unlikely that an attacker would go for that narrow of a market of Mac users (already a narrow-enough market to begin with) but the security risk is there if for some reason you are a tempting enough target to spear-phish. Your only truely secure option is removing the battery while performing the OHHHHHHHH.
You know, while working (very temporarily) on the Queen's University Solar Vehicle project I was told that Lithium cells smell like sweet apples when they rupture. I have never experienced it but if true I find it delightfully ironic.
While that would all require knowledge of other exploits in your operating system, there is a more direct problem. If for some reason someone would like to cause damage against your Apple devices they could use this flaw to simply break your batteries. Charlie has bricked nine batteries in his testing but has not even attempted to see whether it would be possible to over-charge a battery into exploding. While it is possible to force the battery controller to create the proper conditions for an explosion there are other, physical, safe guards in place. Then again, batteries have exploded in the past often making highly entertaining Youtube videos and highly unentertaining FOX news clips.
Overclocking Llano just makes sense, but the RAM not so much

Most reviewers made a financial decision when pairing RAM to review AMD's new Llano A8-3850 processor. Most chose 1333MHz DDR3, since when building a low cost PC most users are going to choose the lower cost as opposed to spending half the budget simply on DDR3. After seeing significant overclocks produced by a variety of testers, The Tech Report thought it would be interesting to see the impact of high speed RAM on the performance of an A8-3850, especially the graphics portion. As it turns out, the decision to go with lower cost RAM made a lot of sense as the the graphical performance did not benefit from faster RAM.
"Will 1866MHz memory make a big difference to the performance of the AMD A8-3850 APU? How does power consumption look without a discrete GPU involved? We aim to find out."

It is an effective technique if you want to entice the reader into reading more.
The topic sentence acts as the concluding sentence.

Story Behind this Recipe
Ever since I was a kid, I've often made pound cake. As I got older, recipes full of butter and flour make it easy to get fat! I'm worried about that. So, I reduced the butter and flour and came up with this moist and delicious cake. It'll fully satisfy you.

Overview of Remaining Material Long Positions
There have been a ton of changes in exposure the past 5 sessions as the market has really punished many names in the small and mid cap space. We only have light exposure to weak dollar / commodity names but they too have bene traumatized the past week. The S&P could have upside to about 1110 / 1115 and then we'll see how it acts from there but between 1085 and 1130 I consider it all white noise in the intermediate term. Over S&P 1130 and I'll reconsider a bullish stance.
If this bounce occurs in the index, so will a lot of the individual names that have been heavily damaged this past week, but as we said yesterday it *should* set them up to be shorts (not longs) as they run into resistance areas.
We've been flushed out of many names as they broke support. Here are the few remaining long positions with a material affect on the portfolio - keeping a close eye on these but thus far they have held in there. Two weeks ago I had about 25 stocks which looked in good shape, now just a handful - not much left to analyze at this point.
Potash (POT) - stop loss is in the high $107s area; just missed executing this morning. The chart is not good, but has held up much better than coal, steel, copper and other such areas which have been trounced lately.
EnerNOC (ENOC) - bounced nicely off the 50 day moving average
Assured Guaranty (AGO) - was starting a nice breakout until the market broke down
DragonWave (DRWI) - retreated sharply the past week, and wicked volatility today, but thus far still holding in
Two names with lesser effect - one that we cut back ahead of earnings (ATHR) and one we just added to the portfolio (FFIV) - still look good. Also both these names have just reported earnings so there is no lemmings risk for the next 3 months.
Wyndham, Worldwide (WYN) looks good but I sold higher (so far so good) and hope to rebuy at the gap. Thus far it has pulled back in non dramatic fashion to the 20 day moving average and continues to exhibit relative strength.
I am also interested in Seagate (STX) although we don't own it ...
Other than that, the pickings are relatively slim out there - at least in sectors I focus on.
Long all names mentioned in fund except Seagate; no personal position

This is a discussion on WTS: High Noon "Down Under" Black IWB Holster (TX) within the Member Buy, Sell & Trade forums, part of the Marketplace category; I am selling a practically Brand New High Noon "Down Under" Black IWB holster made up to a 1.75 inch belt. This holster fits Glock ...
I am selling a practically Brand New High Noon "Down Under" Black IWB holster made up to a 1.75 inch belt.
This holster fits Glock sub-compacts, such as the G26/27/33.
I received it in the mail yesterday, along with a Sharkskin trim VMII.
I have decided to keep the VMII and sell this holster.
The Retail Price from High Noon Holsters is $184.95.
I am asking $150 shipped to you from Texas via USPS Priority Mail (2-3 Days), or best offer.
Pictures below:
will it fit a 3" 1911 (PO Warthog)?
"with great power comes great responsibility"
Just fyi, I bought a High Noon Bare Asset for my Glock 26 and my M&P 40 fits in it as well. Not sure if this is the same fit but I thought I would throw it out there.
Is that the high noon shark skin belt the holster is on? And if you dont mind me asking why are you selling the holster? Heard good things about high noon just curious as to how the the belt and holsters are.
The belt is made by TheBeltMan. I do own a Sharkskin belt by High Noon Holsters and it is THICK (though it is very high-quality craftsmanship - it is, however, quite expensive!!!). It does NOT FIT most 1.5" constructed holsters from my experience. Please take note of this fact, because it can be problematic. The belt is Sharkskin in the picture. I would buy a 1.75" holster if I were to use it with my Sharkskin 1.5" belt by High Noon Holsters~! (It may not even fit a 1.75" holster depending on the holster maker. I cannot emphasize enough how thick this High Noon Holster's Sharkskin belt is...
(Oh yea, the holster was sold awhile ago.)
EDIT: So that no one makes a mistake with belt sizing, I just took and uploaded some pictures of the two Sharkskin belts that I own. Both are rated as 1.5" belts. #1 is the High Noon Holster's version (which is high-quality but is THICK and HEAVY... you will know that you are wearing a gun belt), and #2 is TheBeltMan's version (the thinner one - also very high-quality). I used a ruler and a AA battery to give you a side-by-side example of both belts:
There ya go. Hope this helps =)
sold sold sold~!

Defense carries Spartans to 14-0 win over Purdue
Credit: The Associated Press
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Denicos Allen returned a fumble 45 yards for a touchdown, and Michigan State's offense finally added an insurance score in the fourth quarter of a 14-0 win over Purdue on Saturday.
The Spartans didn't make it past the Purdue 32-yard line until the fourth, when receiver Tony Lippett threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Gleichert on a trick play.

About MeI was in twirling and gymnastics for most of my childhood. I have the ability to pull off girly looks as well as tomboyish styles, and I am comfortable with both. I am currently an exotic dancer and while i may look a tad bit shy, I have no qualms with participating in "mature content" situations.
I have no experience in actual modeling, but have been told all my life that I should be a model or actress.
I hope to "get my foot in the door" and gain experience through this site, as well as developing different styles and techniques.
I can be reached via e-mail or my cell phone, and look forward to hearing from you!

The people, last name West, living on Firwood Farm had four children, Valerie, Rosemary, Kathleen and John. I've heard the farm is still there. My sisters' names were Sharon and Sally, mine is Susan. Firwood is now called Smyth Meadows. If anyone knows of the people I've mentioned or the owner of Smyth Meadows please contact me. We were at Firwood for a month in 1958. There were two older maids there. One was named Olive, the other Mrs. Hutchins. The owners of Firwood were Edmund Smyth who was 98 and Ethel Smyth who was 99 when they passed on so Brownshill was part of their everyday life for many many years. We have many fond memories of your town and country.

Main Goals
- Create repeatable projects between other developers and environments
- Provide a simple and easy to use interface
- Create Gemfile/Gemfile.lock like system
- Set custom environment variables in the virtualenv
- Setup multi python virtualenvs
- Create a plugin system similar that is both flexible and simple
- Allow for local caching of compiled python modules so new virtstrap environments don't continually go online to find a module.
- A configuration file that is portable to more than just virtstrap. This allows for programs that aren't virtstrap to take advantage of the the configuration file.
