I have had many bags that I wasn't thrilled with and I have had a ton that I loved. I don't usually do Ipsy unboxings any more since Youtube if full of them but this months bag was too amazing not to unbox on camera. If you have watched my previous videos you would know I love Gudetama AKA The Lazy Egg! I just think the cartoon character is so cute and silly. My birthday is actually this month and I was so stoked to see that this month's bag had Gudetama printed right on the bag as if Ipsy knew if was my birthday month haha. I got some pretty awesome items in my bag too! If you want to see what I got in my bag watch my video below. Thanks so much for watching and a big Hello to all my new subscribers here on my blog!!!

But I dragged myself off the sofa this evening and quickly cut a few stencils with freezer paper, which I then gently ironed onto that piece of 'wet on wet' painted fabric I produced a couple of weeks ago, and which demanded a bit of additional pattern. This paticular piece was just too wet - so all the paint just merged. I had used Dy Na Flow, a really good quality paint and it does look as though the fabric has been dyed.
Having ironed the shapes on to the fabric I felt it needed a bit of extra interest and found a bit of packaging with neat rectangles already cut out.
Frankly I was not up to anything too exhausting so i just grabbed a sponge and some fabric printing ink, a green I had already mixed up.
And I don't know about you, but I think the effect is actually quite successful.
So a bit fired up, I decided to use a piece of transfer dye paper that I had already prepared (I had sheets of paper with dried dye painted onto them, which I cut into squares and then restuck to a sheet of A4 photocopy paper - I could have just painted squares, but I did it 'the hard way').
I cut more freezer paper shapes, stuck them to a bit of rather nasty buff coloured synthetic fabric. And then applied a hot iron (using sheets of teflon to protect the fabric and the iron) for a long time! I don't really like this technique - my iron does not get hot enough I think, and the effects are a bit blotchy.
So here the shapes have not been removed.
And here I have removed the paper shapes. You can see the rather eratic blotchy effect from the iron (including the shapes on the plate, even though there was no water and the steam was off).
I think this technique could be more effective with a heating tool which gives a hotter temperature.

Oh, the junk mail that comes into the church office!
Usually, it's not of a Lutheran origin - like the "Christian cruise" invitations with dazed-looking suburbanites with hands raised in the air with the "rock" (give me a break!) band up front. Or the invitations to "prayer breakfasts" with "community leaders" and famous TV preachers. Or the catalogs with pictures of big screens and sound systems for our church. Or the ads for sermons for sale that can be purchased with a credit card...
Then there's the Lutheran junk mail.
Today, I got a "fund-raiser" offer to sell T-shirts that say: "The Few, the Proud, the Lutherans" with a plain cross logo.
Of course, no indication if the United States Marines have consented or not...
These t-shirts are touted to have been worn by the youth group of this particular congregation at the Higher Things Youth Conference in North Carolina.
Just last Sunday in the one-year series we heard our Lord preaching about religious pride. This is inevitably what happens when evangelism meets marketing and fund-raising. Creeds are reduced to slogans. The Gospel is reduced to a prideful celebration of our "brand".
The Word of God has much to say about pride - especially in being prideful of one's spiritual state. Pride goes before the fall. Pride was Satan's original sin. Pride stands between the Pharisees and repentance. Pride is the impediment that keeps many away from the Christian faith.
The empty, Christless cross is the perfect symbol to go with this shallow rendition of what the Augsburg Confession is all about. For in celebrating our "Lutheran-ness" with a boastful T-shirt - especially in a way that actually boasts of our pride itself - is the very opposite of the proclamation and confession of the Crucified One.
To be an Augsburg Christian, an Evangelical Catholic, a Lutheran in the richest sense of the word is to be a humble forgiven sinner, knowing that his salvation is by grace alone, and that he has no reason whatsoever to boast.

Been itching to see more of the all-new Hyundai Elantra? Your wish just came true as Hyundai has recently released a photo of the compact sedan.
Calling its new concept as "Wind Craft" to pay homage to the brand's "fluidic sculpture" design language, Hyundai has given the Elantra's interior a "dynamic and futuristic image that is aimed at the younger generation."
The silver garnish on the steering wheel and on the center console has a windblown shape that gives the Elantra's interior a refined and dynamic image. In addition, the high-gloss black accent also used in the center console by the gated automatic shifter further adds a futuristic and high-tech touch to the interior.
The Elantra, which will be sold as the Avante in other markets, will be available in the global market shortly after its launch in Korea next month (view gallery below to see the Elantra's exterior).
Want to know when the all-new Elantra will make it to the Philippines? Click here to find out.

Obla di Obla da Life goes on?
Hello to all,
I hope this finds you all well. Though I don't write as much as I use to, don't ever think I am not thinking of all you warriors.
Last month I celebrated my survivor anniversary, My hubby took my son and I to a nice dinner to celebrate the lives we were given and the love that got us through. Even after all these years thinking of the day I was told I had the big C gets me choked up. A friend of mine saw me teary eyed and asked " It still gets to you after all this time? It's in the past!" She seemed shocked when I responded, "not a day goes by that I don't think about it"
People don't realize how going through it changes you. Changes your whole life. They don't think and I'm glad that they don't have to, of each time I get dressed in the morning, or take a shower, or even get intamite the reminder of a piece of me is gone due to this horrible thing called cancer. Each time I have an unexplained pain, or feeling the thought is in the back of your mind.
When woman talk about themselves and how they should look and the work they want done around me. I want to scream, " are you for real? You are perfect, you DO NOT want to see what I have to deal with under these clothes!"
But I logically know that I need to move forward and can't dwell on what may happen in the future, cause we can't change what will happen as much as we can't change what's in the past. Life goes on, and that's the reality of it. Gotta stay positive. If not for me but for my son. Second chances and all that jazz😊

Digital twinning refers to mapping the physical world to the digital world in which Internet of Things (IoT) platforms and software are leveraged to create a digital representation of physical object or asset. The digital twin of a physical object can provide information about the asset such as its physical state and disposition. Accordingly, digital twins represent a form of physical-to-cyber convergence.
Digital twin solutions can be leveraged for many purposes ranging from design and simulations for production to observation and control in an operational environment. Digital twin systems also rely upon Artificial Intelligence (AI) for machine-based learning, analytics, and other AI based, data oriented processes. Accordingly, digital twin solutions are a good example of the power of the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) as they leverage the convergence of AI and IoT.
Digital twin technology represents software that replicates physical machines enabling remote control and operation. Digital twinning enables a cyber object to replicate a real thing in both form and function, allowing control of real things (e.g. things in the real world such as a piece of equipment) by manipulating digital objects in a software-constructed world. The three primary scenarios for digital twin technology include:
The above scenarios will be employed singularly and in combination across different industry verticals in accordance with their overall IoT operational readiness as well as physical-to-cyber integration on a product-by-product and/or service-by-service basis. IoT enabled digital twin technology will facilitate dramatic changes in a wide range of consumer, enterprise, and industrial products and services. Impacted areas cover a wide range including everything from marketing and advertising to operations and product lifecycle management.
Teleoperation represents the ability to operate equipment or a machine from a distance. A specific form of teleoperation involving remote control of a robot from a distance is referred to as tele-robotics. Teleoperation and tele-robotics are both supported by ICT infrastructure including broadband communications, sensors, machine to machine (M2M) communications, and various IoT technologies.
Enhancements in wireless broadband are untethering teleoperation. Prior to 5G and Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), Teleoperation is largely relegated to fixed communications connections. 5G and MEC will enable Teleoperation anywhere there is 5G coverage, enabling many new consumer and industrial automation scenarios involving robotics.
There are many potential use cases for digital twinning including monitoring, simulation, and remote control of physical assets with virtual objects. Solutions focus on part, product, process, and system twinning. Mind Commerce sees digital twinning playing a key role in many IoT operations processes including IoT application development, testing and control. Digital twinning can be very useful for modeling and simulations of new systems such as IoT enabled process automation. For example, it may be leveraged to allow management to become more familiar and comfortable with IoT based apps for enterprise and industrial solutions.
Advanced IoT systems will utilize digital twin technology to enable next generation teleoperation. The implementation of digital twins will also enable distributed remote control of assets, which will drive a market need for IoT identity management, authentication, and authorization. Due in part to the need to pull many different resources together, Mind Commerce sees a developing Digital Twinning as a Service (DTaaS) marketplace. DTaaS solutions will be leveraged for many purposes including design, operations management, systems optimization, and more.

Be a Summer 'Poolhop' by Swimming and Lounging Around the Country—and Get Paid $10,000 for It
Kells McPhillips・June 19, 2019
Summer is here, temperatures have spiked, and it seems like just about everyone has caught a strong case of the travel bug. While you're undoubtedly setting all the right travel alerts to ensure at least one whirlwind vacation is in your future, there's one under-the-radar wanderlusting opportunity you don't definitely don't want to miss. This August, Hotels.com is hiring one lucky adventurer to dip their toes in crystal-clear chlorine pools across the United States. Oh, and the job comes with $10,000 smackeroos to spend on cocktails, day trips, and exploring local cuisines—basically, it seems to be the best summer job ever.
"Dust off your favorite pool floatie, and grab the sunscreen! This summer, we're hiring our first-ever 'Poolhop' to travel across the country researching the most epic hotel pools from coast to coast," the ad reads. "It's a tough job, but someone has to do it." Indeed. What a sacrifice.
Apart from being at least 21 years old and a resident of the United States, there's only one real job requirement: You have to be (or be willing to become) a connoisseur of swimming pools who can write up a snappy Instagram review faster that it takes to yell "cannonball!"
And, to be clear, becoming a summer-season influencer is well worth your while: In return for your services, you'll receive the $10,000, an all-expenses-paid trip to six different swimming-pool-bedecked hotels, one year of Gold Rewards member status on Hotels.com, and—duh—bragging rights that'll last a lifetime.
Sounds like a pretty sweet gig to me, but in case you still need convincing to apply for the best summer job (who are you???), it's worth mentioning that the application is but a glorified Google Doc. It consists of five questions (like, "What makes you the ideal Poolhop candidate?") that you could literally answer in less time than it takes to properly apply sunscreen.
If you win, don't forget to pack tinted SPF moisturizer and sunglasses in your pool bag!

Filmmaker George Lucas has received endless flack for his "adjustments" to the original Star Wars trilogy, and it doesn't seem like it'll be letting up any time soon.
Actor Paul Blake, who played "Greedo" in the first film, cleared some things up in an interview with New York Daily News this Wednesday in honour of what fans call "unofficial Star Wars day", May 4 ("may the fourth be with you", a play on the popular phrase from the movie).
Blake said in the interview that he wished Lucas would have left his scene in particular unaltered, saying it made his character look grossly incompetent.
"He was a bit inept wasn't he? He's a worse shot than a Stormtrooper."
Blake puts the claims to rest, though, saying the original script begs to differ.
"…we played in the scene in English and at the end of the scene, it reads, 'Han shoots the alien.' It's all it says and that's what happened."
Fans of the trilogy say it's an admission long overdue.
You don't need the actor that played Greedo to tell you Han shot first. There are millions of witnesses that were alive back then! #StarWars
Lucas has ceased to be involved with the franchise as of the last installment of the almost-universally panned prequel trilogy; and for the time being, it would seem that fans are hoping it stays that way.

Custom Playsets New Jersey
How to Choose a Backyard Playset
If you are currently shopping for playsets New Jersey to invest in for your kids' playtime at home, you may be trying to find the right model for your needs. Whether you want to invest in swing sets NJ or a playset with slides and other features, you certainly want to make a decision that will give your kids access to fun, healthy activities right in their own backyard. While you can purchase a wide range of prefabricated or ready to assemble playsets, you may also consider the benefits associated with purchasing custom playsets New Jersey.
The Materials
One of the first things to consider when selecting your New Jersey playsets is the material that the playset will be made out of. Traditionally, playsets have been made out of wood or metal. However, these have their drawbacks. For example, wood can splinter and may require additional maintenance needs over the years. Metal can rust and may easily become hot to the touch in warm weather. A better option to consider is a playset made out of vinyl. This is a highly durable material that does not have the drawbacks associated with other material options. Plus, it is available in fun colors that your kids will love.
The Customization Options
Custom playsets New Jersey are a wonderful option to consider because they give you the ability to create a playset that is personalized to meet the interests and unique skill levels of your kids. For example, you can invest in custom swing sets NJ that have features like tubes, roofs, forts, slides, telescopes, binoculars and other fun features. Because your kids playsets can be fully customized, you can easily select the features that your kids will want while leaving off those that may not appeal to them; our plastic playsets are the best!
If you are in the market to purchase playsets New Jersey, you may have already visited local retailers to browse some of the options in person. Whether you have been unhappy with the material, style or features of these playsets, you will find that the best solution for your unique needs and the needs of your kids is to invest in a custom playset that is personalized to your specifications. Through Adventure World Play Sets, you can work through a simplified customization process that makes it easy to explore all of the options in greater detail and to order the ideal playset for your needs.

Securing critical infrastructure is becoming a priority for the public and private sectors. Cyber professionals everywhere are rejoicing about the increasing investments in protecting the networks and systems that keep us safe at night. The Oval Office has even signaled its intentions to make security a priority.
We welcome the new administration's desire for a "cyber miracle."
Security programs require top-down leadership. Politics aside, this is a great example to set. I hope board rooms will demonstrate the same commitment and require executives that report to them to prioritize security, as well.
Although this increased focus on cyber security will provide opportunities to make a positive impact, security professionals should take a measured approach to implementing new protections. This is not enterprise IT, and while some of the technologies are the same, the technological approaches and drivers on the OT side of the house are completely different.
Here are four tips for a successful OT & IT security marriage:
How many times have you expressed disbelief at business units installing insecure apps or systems without your team's input? Since you know how frustrating that can be, you should approach OT security with that same level of empathy. Involve key people in OT from the very beginning, including project scoping. How can you accurately scope the requirements without their expertise?
Be transparent about your objectives because you will need allies to make your initiatives successful. The OT team has intimate knowledge of their processes and systems. They know the "who, what, when, where, why, and how" of their environment – you don't. Establish relationships and rapport with the people who can provide the needed information to understand all the puzzle pieces.
In the OT space, they are far more concerned with reliability, availability, integrity and safety than security. Since there is a clear line of sight into the revenue they generate, you need their expertise to understand legacy systems, applications, chron jobs, or other processes that could be negatively impacted. I cannot stress enough the importance of engaging OT about any activity that can be disruptive to the site.
Do you want to have to explain to your boss why water or electricity services have been disrupted for thousands of customers because you did not ask OT engineers what application used that port before blocking it?
You don't know what you don't know, right? There are templates available for conducting risk analysis, project planning and security architecture reviews. I'd like to propose a customized "what can get me fired" security project template.
Some questions may include:
Robert M. Lee, co-founder of Dragos Security, advises customers to have cross-functional approaches to security, too. When asked about ways IT and OT can work together, he stated as follows:
"… we must ensure that people are coming together to voice their concerns and identify what they consider critical assets and processes. Having OT personnel integrated into an IT security operations center or security team and having IT personnel learn more about the industrial control system will ensure a better overall approach towards security. This requires breaking down barriers and realizing that the problem is about people, not technology."
The moral of the story: communication is key to forming allies in OT, gaining access to their expertise, and keeping your job. In fact, great communication is needed to advance your career, as well.
While there are exciting (and scary) times ahead with increased security budgets, slow down and include OT in your initiatives from the outset. Reducing the attack surface for both the enterprise and the OT side is mutually beneficial and a worthwhile goal for everyone involved. Therefore, you should remember to use teamwork to make this new marriage work.

Tetelo is the main antagonist of Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers - 20th Anniversary Edition, the remake of Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers.
On Day 1 (and on earlier and later nights) Gabriel dreams of Eliza/Tetalo's death. The same dreams that plagued his ancestors since they were cursed. In the dreams he see's Gunter Ritter (GK1HD) crying as Eliza is burned at the stake as a witch. Then he sees her transform into a leopard.
On Day 4, It is strongly implied that Tetalo is the strange force that strangled Crash (GK1HD) (though at the time Gabriel does not yet know about her).
On Day 5, Hartridge is mysteriously murdered in his office. It's unclear how anyone even knew he was researching into the Gedde veve. Again its strongly implied that his death was of supernatural nature. Although this might be suspect, as it appears someone actively physically stole and destroyed Hartridge's research notes. Forcing Gabriel to recover his notes through the imprents left on the pad Hartridge' had been writing in.
On Day 6, its strongly suggested that Tetelo is probably the force behind the possession of the Police Force (Frick (GK1HD), Franks (GK1HD), and Tony (GK1HD), and others) and the three little girls turning them into zombies, forcing Gabriel to make a run for it and never return to the Police Station again.
She's also seemingly the one who possessed Madame Lorelei on Day 6, who warns Gabriel to stay away from Malia Gedde or pays with his life, as Lorelei seems to speak with the voice of Tetelo.
Later, that night during at Bayou St. John, Gabriel witnesses Malia Gedde (GK1HD) being ridden by the dark loa Tetelo. Tetelo recognizes Gunter's blood in Gabriel and calls him "witch-hunter". After the ceremony ends, Gabriel passes out and is rescued by Grace who followed him to the ceremony.
On Day 9, Gabriel is seen retrieving the Talisman from her remains in the inner wheel of the Snake Mound (GK1HD). Witnessing Wolfgang sacrificing himself by removing his own heart and putting it in the trough, opening the lid, Gabriel furiously lifts the lid and grabs the Talisman, swearing to avenge his grand-uncle and the rest of his family for the misfortunes they have suffered because of her.
On Day 10, after infiltrating the secret voodoo hounfour and locating Grace, the ritual begins and Malia is once again being "ridden" by Tetelo. As Malia/Tetelo was about to sacrifice Grace, Gabriel brings out the Talisman and uses it on Tetelo. As Tetelo threatens him to kill Mosely and Grace, Gabriel throws the Talisman to Mosely and telling them to get to safety, leaving himself unarmed. At this point, Tetelo pulls Gabriel to herself to kill him, but Gabriel manages to reach the Gedde Idol that was hidden under the sacrificial table and destroys it. With the idol destroyed, Tetelo's power over Malia weakens and the place starts to collapse. As Malia was about to fall into the pit of lava, Gabriel tries to save her but fails to do so as Malia lets her hand go and kills herself, banishing Tetelo alongside her.
Personality and traitsEdit
According to Wolfgang Ritter (GK1HD), Tetelo was once a beautiful and intelligent woman and was truly in love with Gunter Ritter (GK1HD). However, after Gunter's betrayal, Tetelo prayed to her father's loa to aid her. Doing so, she turned into a leopard and killed everyone attending the burning and stole the Ritter Talisman from Gunter, which started the fall of the Schattenjägers.

Behind the scenesEdit
Most of Tetelo's scenes are largely the same as they were in the original, although her artwork and some of the actions and appearances are interpreted slightly differently.

The Tastiest Healthy Cookie You'll Ever Eat
Recently I was pining for a treat where guilt would not be the main ingredient. I started searching for a really good, healthy cookie recipe if such a thing existed. I feel like I struck gold with this one. It is loaded with whole grains, healthy fats, and proteins without the sugar and saturated fat. The great thing about this recipe is the taste. The second best thing is the versitility. I'll list the recipe and then give you some ideas for substitutions that might be able to tweak these cookies to your liking.
- 1 Cup Hazlenuts
- 1 1/2 Cups Old-Fashioned Oats
- 1/3 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/2 Cup Ground Flax Meal
- 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 Cup Natural Peanut Butter
- 1/4 Olive Oil
- 2/3 Cup Blue Agave Nectar
- 1 Egg
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 Cup Golden Raisins
- Preheat Oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper.
- Chop Hazelnuts in a food processor until fine. Mix chopped Hazelnuts with Rolled Oats, Whole Wheat Flour, Flax Meal, Baking Soda, Salt and Cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
- Combine Peanut Butter, Olive Oil, Agave Nectar, Egg, and Vanilla Exract with a mixer.
- Mix with Peanut Butter mixture with dry ingredients in a large bowl and fold in raisins. (Dough will be very thick).
- Scoop heaping teaspoons of dough and form into balls. Lay the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and flatten the cookies with a spatula. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheets before moving to finish cooling on wire racks.
(Adapted from original recipe posted by IrisMac on allrecipes.com)
Here are some substitution ideas: Swap/Add Dried Cherries and/or chocolate chips for the raisins. Replace Olive Oil with Apple Sauce. Substitute Honey for the Blue Agave Nectar. Substitute Almond Butter for Peanut Butter. Subsitute Any other type of nut for Hazelnuts.
Unfortunately, there is one problem that is common to all delicious cookies: How do you keep from eating too many? Another great thing about this recipe is that the dough freezes well. After you form the balls of dough you can wrap them in wax paper and freezer them in a freezer bag. Then defrost the dough as you want to bake them.
If you have a great healthy recipe I'd love to know about it and share it with other readers. Please respond to this post and tell me how you like the recipe and any good changes you have made to make it even better.
This Post Has One Comment
I love this recipe. I add cooked quinoa to it for added protein. I make these for a healthy snack for my swimmers to eat after swim practice.

It's the first Friday of the month, and usually a guest post by physics professor (and my dad) Dean Zollman highlights the history of atom theory. Today through Monday, this space will be dedicated to the Heroes and Villains blog hop. Enjoy the post about the hero of The Cross and the Dragon below and check out the giveaway and other bloggers. Then come back to Outtakes on Tuesday for another installment on the history of how we came to understand atoms.
Any portrayal of Roland, whom I call Hruodland in The Cross and the Dragon, is going to be fictitious. The only thing we know about the historical eighth-century governor of the March of Brittany is where and when he died.
The Hruodland of The Cross and the Dragon is a product of my imagination, as Roland is a product of the imaginations of the people who created The Song of Roland, Orlando Inamorato, Orlando Furioso, and the legend behind the origin of Rolandsbogen.
So do I make him the hero who bravely faces overwhelming odds at the Pass of Roncevaux and stubbornly refused to call for aid? Do I make him the bridegroom grieving over the separation from his beloved?
Those questions pale compared to the greatest challenge for anyone writing historical fiction set in the Middle Ages: a hero who is true to his times yet whom modern readers will like and root for.
Unless their protagonist is an antihero, all fiction writers must balance making a character virtuous enough to be sympathetic but flawed enough to be realistic. Medieval times present other obstacles such as:
- Medieval folk likely favored harsh justice for criminals, such as putting out an eye, slitting nostrils, or letting bandits, often accused of murder and rape, strangle slowly on the hangman's noose.
- Carolingian Franks were intolerant of pagan religions.
- Wife-beating was a right.
- Men thought women enjoyed sex and wondered if their wives would restrain themselves when they were away. A man knew whose blood his sister had, which is why his relationship with nephews and nieces was special; he had to take his wife's word that her children were his.
Given all that, what kind of hero did I create? Hruodland has a common medieval attitude toward women and therefore doesn't completely trust his wife, so he is prone to fits of jealousy. But he values her intelligence, compassion, and cleverness. He will stop at nothing to get her back when they are separated, and he is willing to pay any price to protect her.
This post about Hruodland and my process for creating him is part of the Heroes and Villains blog hop, May 3-6, in which more than 20 authors of fantasy, science fiction, and historical fiction discuss our heroes or our villains. And we all have giveaways.
Mine is an e-book of The Cross and the Dragon. To enter, leave a comment in this space only, with an e-mail address so that I can contact the winner. If you'd like to get an extra entry, thus increasing your odds, mention that you would like to receive an e-mail (note the singular) announcing the publication of my second book, The Ashes of Heaven's Pillar, which features am eighth-century Continental Saxon peasant who will do anything to protect her children.
The winner will be chosen at random and announced in an update to this post after the hop. In the meantime, please check out the posts and the giveaways of the authors below.
Update (May 7, 2013): And the e-book goes to Sandi, chosen by Random.org. Sandi, I will contact you by e-mail. Many thanks to all who entered and contributed to our interesting discussion.

Google now receives more than 2 million piracy takedown requests a day
It's been a while since we checked in with Google's Transparency Report, the company's blog that keeps tabs on search result takedowns and related issues, but it seems the war on piracy has only been getting more frantic. As TorrentFreak pointed out in a recent post, Google now receives just over 1,500 requests every minute to remove URLs from its search results. That's 25 requests a second or around 2,160,000 a day — double the amount of requests the company was receiving over the same time period last year.
Last month's takedown requests came from 5,492 copyright owners and pertained to 72,207 specific domains, meaning that each domain, on average, was the subject of around 900 takedown requests. However, this stat doesn't paint a totally accurate picture, as the top five domains (including Spanish-language MP3 download site flowxd.me and Polish file locker chomikuj.pl) were the target of more than half a million reports each.
It's also worth remembering that these statistics include multiple takedown requests for the same URLs (which Google says it includes as doing so "paints a more complete picture of the removals activity"). Still, though, these are staggering numbers and show that despite Google's attempts to limit access to pirating sites (as of 2012 it's been feeding this data into its search algorithms to make frequently-infringing domains less visible), the takedown request is still one of the main weapons used by copyright holders against pirates.

MANILA, Philippines - Mall goers are flocking to the fifth SM Megamall where guys are getting kissed by a 'bride' and girls are receiving a bouquet of roses from a 'groom' —all without live models or promotional attendants. This has been made possible with the launch of Forthmedia's groundbreaking interactive augmented reality experience.
Augmented reality allows customers to experience your brand, product or service by adding virtual objects to the real world. Forthmedia has taken this technology to the next level by integrating it with skeletal tracking and motion detection to launch not just an augmented reality experience but an interactive one as well without the need for live models or costly studio set-ups.
In this project developed for The Wedding Library, girls interact with the groom, by being offered a kiss, a slice of cake, or even a wedding ring. Depending on how the girl reacts the augmented models then respond accordingly. Men, on the other hand, can experience being kissed by a bride. They can even have their photos taken, grab it and share it with their friends.
The response has been overwhelming, and mall-goers of all ages have been entertained. Due to its low operating cost, interactive augmented reality set-ups can be used for permanent or long-running promotions in stores, boutiques, restaurants, theme parks, and other similar establishments to allow customers to get a taste of the brand.
Forthmedia is a digital agency that specializes in new digital technologies and integrate them to develop advanced systems for websites, mobile applications, Facebook applications, and interactive augmented reality experiences.
