Which is more important, right to know or state secrets?
Nowadays, we have a stronger right consciousness and pay more attention to the politics and other state's affairs.Right to know is extremly important in our political life as we want to know what the government actually does and whether they could benefit us or not.Now, it comes to the question.If there is something related to the national security, is it appropriate for people have the access to know some details about it?If the anwser is yes, how to keep the country in safe and if no, how to guarantee people's right to know if the government declares that some fundermental affairs are top sercret, which actually keeps citizens out of the political life.Look forward to your opinions!

Looks like Justin Bieber is next in line for Oprah's Next Chapter. The young pop sensation will be in the hot seat across from Mama O for an upcoming episode that will air on November 25 — not just nationwide, but worldwide in over 100 countries. (Think of it as the perfect ending to a pop Thanksgiving weekend with Bad25 airing on Turkey Day, R. Kelly's next installment of Trapped In The Closet on Black Friday and the Biebs bringing it home on Sunday.) While Oprah has been able to deliver some real tear-jerker moments on ONC from Rihanna, Fergie and Usher this year, we wonder just what the talk show host thinks she will uncover considering that JB is well media trained and we've already seen his rags to riches tale in Never Say Never.Media savvy or not, an OWN press release has stated that Justin's opens up to Oprah about "his growth as an artist, the pitfalls of fame and living in the spotlight". In the episode JB also takes the media mogul backstage at his Rosemont, Illinois concert, the pair also dine together at Chicago's RL Restaurant — and the Believe artist also takes Oprah shopping at Ralph Lauren.
Fingers crossed that if Oprah gives the pop star one of her signature surprises by delivering the crooner his stolen laptop.
The episode will air on November 25 at 9pm PST on OWN, and will then air on Discovery Networks International's female flagship stations: TLC, Home & Health and Real Time.
Will you be tuning in to watch Justin's Chapter?

Attacker wanted to break a spell with gasoline
A Canadian
man remains in custody after he attacked two people with
gasoline in hopes of breaking a magic spell last week. Tejpal
Sing Kaiser 49, of Surrey, British Columbia is being held
on $200,000 bail suspected of second degree assault, first
degree murder and first degree attempted arson.
The attack took place about 3:19 p.m. Wednesday at the Bayside Motor Inn and Apartments. Bhubinderpal Chandel, a local acupuncturist was treating a patient when an unannounced visitor entered into his apartment, where he practices, and began flinging gasoline in Chandels face. His patient at the time of attack was also soaked in gasoline, according to police.
I was there for my weekly appointment, patient Jude Grimm said. He stormed in with liquid getting it all over me.
Chandel, 65, wrestled Kaiser out the door and down the stairs while Grimm locked the door behind them and called the police.
When police arrived Kaiser was standing in the courtyard of the apartment complex soaked in gasoline, armed with a lighter. Kaiser told officers that he had gone to the apartment complex to set fire to another man who had caused his family trouble through the use of black magic.
He thinks this man is influencing his sons with magic, police detective Doug Balmer said, explaining Kaiser thought Chandels magic made his sons sleep late and wear clothes he disapproved of Chandel said relations with Kaiser had always been positive. Kaiser and his family have been patients of Chandel and Kaiser had been treated the week before where he discussed financial troubles and told Chandel he thought an evil spirit was in his house.
I had no idea why he was attacking, Chandel said. I have given he and his wife free treatment because he wasnt able to afford it.
I told him Dont pour it out, I havent done you any harm, Chandel recalled. Chandel said he didnt see a lighter and Kaiser didnt try to start a fire during the attack.
Chandel said that Kaiser never said anything to him during the attack. After struggling with Kaiser, Chandel jumped down onto a landing in front of his second floor door, bruising his leg. His skin, mouth, nose and eyes stung from the gasoline.
Emergency crews suggested Chandel go to St. Joseph Hospital but Chandel refused. Instead he asked a cousin to give him accupressure treatment which entails massaging of the feet and other parts of the body to relieve stress and pain.
The apartment reeked of gasoline until the landlord shampooed the carpet Wednesday evening. Chandel is not worried about anymore attacks or trouble. All the time I express my help, Chandel said. I am a social worker and I help people.
Chandel was a social worker in his native country India. He received an award from Mother Teresa of Calcutta for his humanitarian work. A picture of him receiving this award is displayed in his apartment.
I am a very peaceful man, Chandel said. I dont have fear, I dont have anger, because there was never any dispute. I am just thanking God that he saved both of us.
Kaiser is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday August 24 in Washington Superior Court. As a foreign citizen suspected of a major crime, the U.S. Boarder Patrol will hold Kaiser with no bail until he is tried, should he be released from jail. .

Jim Allchin vs SecurityFocus: safety in numbers, or in niches?
Interesting to contrast Jim Allchin's comment to David Kirkpatrick:
[he] looked at my Apple PowerBook and smugly pointed out that the number of copies of Windows sold this year will be more than all the Macintosh computers used worldwide. By the end of 2005, he proudly noted, over 730 million people will be using Windows. "Business is good," he said
(Interesting question: if people could *choose* which operating system, or had to, when they bought their machine, which would it be?)
Contrast that with the remark at the end of this deep-sighing column from SecurityFocus about the fact that while there's a ton of Trojans, viruses and keyloggers for Windows, there still isn't a virus for OSX (reprinted - if that's the word - at The Register):
I should have also prefaced this column with the disclaimer that most SecurityFocus staff use OS X in some way or another, if not at work then at home, so we're somewhat biased. After covering multi-platform security news all day long, from WiFi penetration testing to intrusion detection and honeypots, at the end of the day it's nice to use a system that's not on everyone's radar for a change. Let's keep it that way.
I guess one could say that Microsoft has 90+ per cent of the PC market - and virtually all the virus and spyware market. I did get asked by someone earlier this week what antivirus software she should use on her still-new iBook G4. I'm still not sure she believed me when I said "none". Well, how can you protect against a threat that's not there?

Legislative Update
Congressional Members and Staff Turn to NCI for Cancer Research Information
When Congress returned from its August recess, members of both chambers reached out to NCI to learn more about cancer research in a flurry of events and visits.
The rush began with a September 15 congressional briefing on ovarian cancer. Dr. Jennifer Loud of NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics was invited by the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance to address a gathering of female House members. Representatives Lois Capps (D-CA), Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) participated, along with staff from other members' offices. They joined Dr. Loud and researchers from the Department of Defense in a roundtable discussion on advances in ovarian cancer diagnosis and treatment, as well as on the importance of access to appropriate and adequate care.
Staffers for Representative Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) and Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) attended a September 19 event at the NIH Clinical Center hosted by the American Cancer Society's Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) to celebrate patients and progress in cancer research. NCI's Drs. Lee Helman and W. Marston Linehan, as well as Merria Woods, a patient of Dr. Linehan's, were featured speakers. Woods talked about her experiences and those of her family when they participated in familial kidney cancer clinical studies at NCI's Center for Cancer Research (CCR). She described how they and others continue to benefit from patient participation in research.
Later that week, on September 22, NCI Director Dr. Harold Varmus met with members of the House Republican Study Committee and their staff to address questions from Congressmen Brian Bilbray (R-CA) and Michael McCaul (R-TX) about cancer clinical trial design and pediatric cancer research. The briefing was organized by the American Association for Cancer Research and coincided with the release of its Cancer Progress Report 2011.
A few blocks away, at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, Drs. Kathy Cronin and Angela Mariotto, of NCI's Surveillance Research Program, gave a presentation at the 7th Annual African American Prostate Cancer Disparity Summit, hosted by the Prostate Health Education Network and the Congressional Black Caucus. Drs. Cronin and Mariotto provided an overview of NCI's surveillance research to help participants understand prostate cancer statistics, particularly data on disparities in incidence and mortality between white and black populations in the United States.
The same morning, Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS) and two members of his staff visited the NIH Clinical Center to learn more about current NCI intramural research and the unique research opportunities and capabilities afforded by the Clinical Center facility. Drs. Helman and Linehan led Senator Moran and his staff on a tour of the Clinical Center, pointing out how the close proximity of the clinic and laboratory spaces promotes the collaborative process necessary for translating laboratory discoveries into tangible benefits for patients. The senator and his staff talked with a young osteosarcoma patient who is participating in an immunotherapy protocol—an example of the kind of cutting-edge treatment that is possible at the NIH Clinical Center.
Dr. Linehan hosted another group last week, as 20 congressional staffers and 11 advocates visited the NIH Clinical Center on September 27. The group met with Dr. Linehan in his lab as part of an event coordinated by the research advocacy organization Research!America. NIH's Office of Legislative Policy and Analysis organized two parallel tours of the NIH Clinical Center that included a welcome from NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins, stops at labs at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and a meeting with a senior investigator in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's Hematology Branch.
Congressional Appropriations Committees Put Forward Labor-HHS Bills
September also brought appropriations activity in Congress. The Senate Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies (Labor-HHS) marked up its appropriations bill, which includes the appropriations level for NIH, on September 20. The full Appropriations Committee voted the bill out of committee on September 21. The Senate bill proposes a $190 million (0.6 percent) reduction to the NIH budget from FY2011 levels, including a reduction of approximately $57 million (1.1 percent) for NCI from FY2011 levels. The full Senate has not yet voted on the bill.
The House Appropriations Committee released its draft FY2012 Labor-HHS bill on September 29, posting the bill and summary tables on its website. The proposal would eliminate funding for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Public Law 111-148) and proposes $31.7 billion in program funding for NIH, which is $1 billion (3.3 percent) over FY2011 levels and approximately the same as the president's budget request. The proposal includes roughly $5.2 billion in program funding for NCI, also the same as the president's budget request, which represents an increase of about $138 million (2.7 percent) over FY2011 levels. No plans for consideration of the bill have been announced.

Trail runners are invited to Grand Ridge event
July 30, 2013
Hard-core runners from the Pacific Northwest will converge in Issaquah on Aug. 3 for the Grand Ridge Trail Run.
The event takes place at Grand Ridge Park, near Exit 20 off Interstate 90, and will include four distances: 5 miles, half-marathon (13.1 miles), marathon (26.2 miles) and 50 kilometers (31.2 miles).
The races are part of the Evergreen Trail Runs series. Aid stations stocked with water and food will dot the course. Race organizers have teamed with The Balanced Athlete in Renton, which will raffle a pair of shoes and socks to participants.
Have fun, get dirty and then clean at Foam Fest
July 30, 2013
The 5K Foam Fest "adventure run" is Aug. 3 at Lake Sammamish State Park.
Crawl, swim, dance, walk, skip or jump your way through an obstacle course, the likes of which you may never have seen. You can enter on your own or in teams.
"Anything goes as long as you wear some clothes," the event website says. "You will be running in foam, mud and water so you'll want something that can get muddy, foamy and that allows you the freedom to move and groove.
"Costumes are the coolest and come with their own list of pros, so choose but choose wisely, my friends."
Penalty costs Kip Brown in Columbia Cup
July 30, 2013
Nearly two weeks after Preston-based team Our Gang Racing celebrated Kip Brown and the 95 Spirit of Qatar's Gold Cup win, the team was back in the state competing in the Columbia Cup.
The team could not duplicate the success it had in Detroit, though. It placed seventh in the final heat of the Unlimited hydroplane competition held in Tri-Cities.
Brown, the driver, was plagued by a one-lap penalty he received after he prematurely crossed the one-minute buoy.
The team will next compete for the Albert Lee Appliance Cup at Seafair in Seattle Aug. 2-4.
Drinking and boating laws get tougher
July 30, 2013
New Boating Under the Influence laws went into effect July 28.
Under the laws, BUI is a gross misdemeanor, punishable by a maximum fine of $5,000 and up to 364 days in jail.
Law enforcement will be able to require operators suspected of BUI to take a breath or blood test. They will also have the authority to issue citations to vessel operators during the investigation of collisions and accidents they did not witness, thus holding negligent and reckless boaters more accountable.
The legal limit for BUI is .08 percent or under the influence and

Washington Fencing Academy carries on the tradition of centuries-old sport
The sport of fencing is often associated with a certain aristocratic air, possibly perpetuated by film depictions and the sheer history of the pastime.
To those unfamiliar with the sport, fencing is simply the means by which storied characters such as Zorro, or The Three Musketeers, vanquish their enemies.
Those who are close to the sport understand that it is much more than that. It is a sport of respect, chivalry and craft.

Public invited to enjoy the outdoors in nature-walk series
July 16, 2013
The city of Sammamish is hosting a series of nature walks the third Saturday of each month from July through October.
The walks, free of charge, start at 10 a.m. and last 90-120 minutes. Below are dates, locations and details of the next four events. Register online at www.sammamishwalks.org.
Mason Lake offers worthy payoff for strenuous hike
July 16, 2013
The Alpine Lakes Wilderness area covers 390,000 acres of pine-shrouded mountains dotted with lakes tucked away in bowl-shaped valleys in the North Cascades. While much of the area is difficult to access, Mason Lake is in King County, and reachable in a somewhat challenging day hike along the Ira Spring Trail.
The hike is about 3 miles each way, with an elevation gain of about 2,500 feet. It starts easily enough — a wide trail shaded by leafy trees and a fairly gradual incline.
After the first half-mile or so, a small waterfall uphill creates a stream (which makes its way to the South Fork of the Snoqualmie River) that cuts across the trail.
Swimming duo synchs up to a strenuous new sport
July 9, 2013
As first-time competitors at the national level, it was understandable for synchronized swimmers Leeza Polyakova and Meili Hobson to be a bit tense.
Polyakova and Hobson, who are both Sammamish residents, had to ignore their apprehension last month as part of the Seattle Synchronized Swim Team's performance at the eSynchro Age Group Championships in Riverside, Calif.
It wasn't an easy task. The girls are relatively new to the sport, having gotten involved within the past two years, and they were competing in front of several hundred people at the meet — easily the biggest crowd they've seen.
Hobson, 11, who will enter the fifth grade this fall at Creekside Elementary School, felt a lot of nerves as she entered the pool at Riverside City College for the first time.
Cougar Mountain Trail Run third race is July 13
July 9, 2013
The third in the four-run Cougar Mountain Trail Run series is July 13.
The event, co-presented by the Seattle Running Club and Northwest Trail Runs, has been a Pacific Northwest tradition for the past 11 years. This month's race boasts multiple courses: a 10- and 20-mile path that loops through some of Cougar Mountain's 36 miles of trails, as well as a 5K.

by Hal Erickson synopsis
Much against his will, Monk (Tony Shalhoub) checks into a hospital to be treated for a bloody nose. His mortal fear of being left alone in a hospital room is only exacerbated when Monk stumbles upon the body of a doctor who has been bludgeoned to death by an oxygen tank. The weapon belongs to an elderly patient who couldn't possibly have arisen from his sickbed to commit the crime, but he's the only suspect the police have. In his efforts to solve the murder, Monk not only learns the true significance of the old adage "physician heal thyself", but also ends up at the mercy of a killer who is fully prepared to "medicate" our hero into the next world. This is the final episode of Monk's fifth season.

There is a fellow poster among us that has ties to this very school.. nice to see them continuing the roll.
Joe Parish can proudly say he knew Jace Rindahl back when.
The UW-Whitewater receivers coach was Rindahl's coach when the Warhawks' stud linebacker played at Cambridge High School. Parish remembers when Rindahl, in middle school at the time, was a ball boy for the high school basketball team and chuckles at the thought of the muscle-challenged high school freshman Rindahl once was. [img_r]http://d3football.com/images/2008/uwwrindahlrcw217.jpg[/img_r]
A gym rat is what Parish calls him, a genuinely nice kid who would do whatever possible to help a friend.
"But you put a football helmet on him," Parish said, "and I think when he hears the buckles clip something triggers him to move really fast and make big plays and things of that nature. That's pretty exciting."
Spoken like a true football coach.
The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Rindahl is definitely not a man to mess with.
On the field, the senior is the heart of Whitewater's defense, a big-time playmaker for a unit that ranks third in the nation by allowing 12.2 points per game and 17th in total defense at 265.3 yards per game. Off the field, he has played a vital role in Whitewater's transition from the veteran team that won the Division III national title last season to the relatively young one - the Warhawks have just six seniors on the roster - that is 12-1 and plays Mary Hardin-Baylor (12-1) in the national semifinals at noon Saturday in Belton, Texas.
"It was essentially a new defense and to keep that edge, keep that attitude, you need someone," Whitewater coach Lance Leipold said.
Rindahl embraced the role, making sure teammates were lined up properly or being there for anyone with questions. All the while, he was adjusting to his move from the weak side to the middle, and moving into the spotlight after being obscured by the presence of linebackers A.J. Raebel, a D3football.com second-team All-American, and Tristan Borzick, a first team all-conference pick.
"You want to get our name out there and to be recognized by people . . ." Rindahl admitted. "Coming into this season, I had a lot of high expectations. I was a preseason All-American and I thought that was a little more pressure on me to perform at that level. It wouldn't mean nothing if I don't become an All-American."
Rindahl is well on his way. He made the first-team of D3football.com's All-West Region team that was released earlier this week.
He leads Whitewater with 90 tackles, including eight for a loss, and 1 sacks. He also leads the team with five interceptions. He had two last week, including a fourth-quarter pick he returned 45 yards for a touchdown to seal a 34-17 victory over Wartburg College.
The play capped another big playoff performance for Rindahl, who finished the day with six tackles and two interception returns for 88 yards.
It was a big-time play by what Leipold called a "big-time player." Rindahl has proved it again and again in the playoffs.
Against Willamette in the second round, he had 14 tackles. He had 16 tackles, including 10 solos, in the Warhawks' 31-21 victory over Mount Union in the national championship game. And in the national semifinal last season, he had 12 tackles in a 16-7 victory over Mary Hardin-Baylor.
That game was a dream for power football lovers. Mary Hardin-Baylor ran the ball 50 times; Whitewater ran it 44.
It should be more of the same this year.
Quarterback Josh Saenz leads the Crusaders in rushing with 742 yards and 10 touchdowns. Bryson Tucker, a converted linebacker, has run for 675 yards in the last six games and two other backs have more than 500 rushing yards.
"They're going to come out and hit you and it's going to be a physical battle and I think that is the only way we want it to be," Rindahl said. "For us defensive guys, we love to stop the run. That is what we feel is our strength as a defense."
A victory will put Whitewater in the national title game for the fourth straight year.
It would also give Rindahl the rare distinction of playing 60 games as a collegian, the maximum a Division III player can play.
"That is the only way I want to go out," he said. "There is no way I want to stop in the semifinals and take a loss now when we're that close and we can get back there and finish out the best way you can finish out a career."
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.

At least we have something to hang our hats upon this year..
Whitewater - For its motto, the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater chose, "Stay Close. Go Far."
It goes to the possibilities beyond the lovely, rural campus for a student body that, for the most part, abides a short commute to where Jefferson and Walworth counties meet to form the lower edge of the Kettle Moraine Forest.
It's also a motto the school could stamp across the helmets of its football team.
This season the Warhawks, with a roster largely of players from southeastern Wisconsin, traveled to play games in Tacoma, Wash., in Salem, Ore., and in Belton, Texas.
And for the fourth consecutive year, they will go to Salem, Va., on Saturday to play for the Division III national championship in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl.
How does such sustained excellence happen at any level in this age?
"I think part of the reason is this building we're sitting in," Whitewater coach Lance Leipold said Tuesday afternoon as snow fell outside his office window.
No doubt, Whitewater's athletic center, which Leipold's distinguished predecessor, Bob Berezowitz, campaigned to build before UWW's Stagg Bowl run, would be the envy of any Division III school. Truth be told, many larger schools also would love to have the facility, with its spacious classrooms and weight facilities.
Perkins Stadium helps, too. Seating 11,000, it is one of the largest in Division III. So do featured majors in education and business, recruiting draws for a level of football that does not offer athletic scholarships.
Beyond all that, Leipold has proved himself as a most worthy successor to Berezowitz.
A former Whitewater quarterback who served as a Wisconsin graduate assistant during Barry Alvarez's first Rose Bowl run, Leipold returned to his alma mater last year after spending time in Nebraska, first with the Cornhuskers and then as Nebraska-Omaha's offensive coordinator.
In his first season, Leipold coached the Warhawks to the 2007 national championship, the first in school history. And now the Warhawks are back in the title game after losing four starting offensive linemen, an entire secondary and a large senior class.
After Whitewater beat Mount Union, the New York Yankees of D3 football, Leipold let only the seniors make the celebrity appearances at the capitol and at halftime of UW and Marquette basketball games.
"The other guys, we told them to stay grounded and stay hungry and get back in the weight room," Leipold said. "And they really did. We told them, 'Your day will come.' Hopefully if we can finish this thing off, their day will come (Saturday)."
Whitewater's return to the championship game, against Mount Union for the fourth time in as many years, is notable in that 27 of the 52 who will dress Saturday did not play in the Stagg Bowl last season.
Leipold has rebuilt with two 1,000-yard rushers, a 1,000-yard receiver and a quarterback, Jeff Donovan from Wauwatosa East, who has thrown for almost 2,500 yards this season. Two of Whitewater's top defenders, Wesley Hicks (Vincent) and Anthony White (Bay View), are from Milwaukee.
"We've always been blessed by our locality, between Milwaukee and Madison, but now even more so we can bring a recruit in and open their eyes," Leipold said. "A lot of times we might be able to beat a Division II school because they'd rather stay closer to home and play in a better facility than having to go to a Minnesota or Dakota school. I think that's really benefited us."
Mount Union, which will play in its 12th Stagg Bowl since 1993, has won a record nine D3 championships. How the private school does it is one question. How Whitewater does it makes it one of our sporting jewels.
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.

4 tech stocks for 2012
Here's a look at four technology stocks riding the IPO wave into 2012.
While the window for tech initial public offerings remained closed during the third quarter with just four venture-backed companies pursuing IPOs, the trend appears to have reversed in recent weeks.
Earlier this month, Groupon (GRPN) netted $700 million in an IPO despite scrutiny over its accounting metrics and concerns about its long-term ability to turn a profit. The offering was the largest since Google's (GOOG) in 2004, as Groupon ended a dearth of IPOs in the last several months and opened up the doors for a slew of other high-profile companies to toss their hats into the ring.
"Groupon was the 800-pound gorilla everyone was waiting to see go out of the gates," said Lee Simmons, an analyst with Dun & Bradstreet. "They had such a strong showing it opened the gates even further for a flood of these IPOs to come down the pipeline."
Last Thursday, consumer reviews site Angie's List (ANGI) raised $114 million in its IPO. Shares opened at $18, nearly 40% higher than its initial offer price. On the same day, user review site counterpart Yelp filed for a $100 million IPO. Both Angie's List and Yelp are unprofitable.
Post continues below:
Social gaming company Zynga also filed for an IPO and is rumored to be going out after Thanksgiving. The FarmVille creator could boast the biggest offering yet as it looks to raise up to $1 billion.
As the market for tech IPO heats up, so does investor enthusiasm for the sector as a whole.
A recent study by Silicon Valley law firm Fenwick & West showed "up rounds" exceeded down rounds for venture financings 70% to 15%, meaning the price per share at which companies sold their stock has increased since their prior funding round.
We take a look at several newly public tech stocks, how they've performed this year and what analysts are expecting going into 2012.
1. Pandora (P). Online radio company Pandora debuted on the New York Stock Exchange on June 15 with shares surging more than 63%.
The company raised $235 million in its IPO, selling shares at $16 a piece.
During its most recent quarter, the company reported an adjusted profit of 2 cents a share on revenue of $67 million. Analysts had expected Pandora to break even on a per share basis on revenue of $60 million.
Despite topping analysts' estimates, the company has faced skepticism about its ability to turn a profit as well as its power to fend off stiff competition from tech giants like Amazon (AMZN) and Google (GOOG), as well as upstarts like Spotify, all which are trying to gain market share in the online music space.
These concerns have sent Pandora shares sliding nearly 30%, closing Friday at $12.88.
The company will report its third-quarter earnings on Nov. 22. Analysts are expecting a loss of 1 cents a share and revenue of $71 million.
Analysts believe much of Pandora's growth will come from its mobile business.
Around half of Pandora's advertising revenue came from mobile devices last quarter, the first period that the company has reached this milestone, Pandora said.
"The recent rise of smartphone and tablets as mobile platforms that Pandora can take advantage of should be a strong driver of listener hours and advertising revenue as the penetration of these devices continues to expand," BMO Capital Markets analyst Edward Williams wrote in a recent analyst note.
Pandora lets listeners create personalized radio stations based on their tastes. Listeners can then provide feedback by selecting "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" to influence the types of songs that are played going forward.
The service is available for free through the Web, tablets and smartphones and is also integrated into the sound systems of several car makers. The company's iPad app is the most downloaded free app in the history of Apple's (AAPL) App Store and its iPhone app is the second-most popular, following Facebook.
2. LinkedIn (LNKD). When professional networking site LinkedIn debuted on the NYSE in May, shares opened at $83, double the initial offer price.
The first high-profile tech firm to go after an IPO in months, LinkedIn signaled a turning point for the sector.
While shares of LinkedIn have cooled since then -- they closed Friday at $72 -- the stock still remains strong.
Last week, LinkedIn completed a secondary offering, raising $88 million and doubling the number of shares available in the public markets. The selling shareholders included Bain Capital which sold all of its 3.7 million shares, around 4.2% of the company.
During the most recent quarter ended in September, LinkedIn said it has grown its membership base to 131.2 million, an increase of 63% from the same period last year.
The company reported its first quarterly loss since going public, while revenue more than doubled to $139.5 million, sparking concern that the company is overspending.
Analysts believe much of LinkedIn's growth will come from new products, particularly as the company opens up its platform to third-party application providers.
In April, LinkedIn announced it was releasing plug-ins that developers could integrate with their own Web sites which allows users to share articles with the LinkedIn community, view member profiles and browse company data.
"To sustain robust revenue growth rates, the company will have to move beyond simple hiring solutions and enter new markets," Morningstar analyst Rick Summer wrote in an analyst note.
3. Fusion-io (FIO). Fusion-io, which makes products that improve data center efficiency, scored big in its June IPO.
The company, whose biggest customer is Facebook, priced its offering at $19, north of its projected range of $16 to $18 a share.
Fusion-io has seen its shares jump a whopping 78% since its IPO debut.
Shares closed Friday at $36.90.
In its most recently quarter, ended in September, the company reported revenue of $75 million, almost double its sales from the same period last year.
Last week, Fusion-io said it will offer 3 million common shares as part of a secondary offering.
4. Bankrate (RATE). Bankrate, which provides personal finance information like mortgage rates and online calculators, is seeing a strong return following its June IPO.
Shares are up over 30% this year after pricing at $15 a share on the NYSE.
During the most recent quarter ended in September, revenue grew 60% to $113 million. Adjusted profit jumped 55% to $36 million.
Last week, Stifel analyst Jordan Rohan upped his price target on Bankrate to $24 from $21, citing demand for its mortgage products and credit card business.
The company's acquisition of InsWeb's insurance lead generation and marketing business last month for $65 million is also expected to propel growth.
Shares of Bankrate closed Friday at $19.97.

2012 Findings on the Worst Forms of Child Labor
In 2012, Albania made a moderate advancement in efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor. The Council of Ministers adopted an Action Plan for Children. The Government amended and improved the National Referral Mechanism to increase cooperation between government agencies and civil society on trafficking issues. The Government alsoreleased a national Child Labor Survey conducted by the National Institute of Statistics in 2010. Despite these efforts, the Government relies on poorly funded NGOs to provide the bulk of services to children engaged in the worst forms of child labor. Children continue to engage in the worst forms of child labor, particularly in forced begging.

NCAA suspends two rule changes
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) _ The NCAA's board of directors is suspending two recruiting rules changes that were passed two months ago.
Citing an outcry from colleges over the impact on recruits and their families, the board decided to shelve new legislation that deregulated which staff members can perform recruiting tasks and what printed materials can be sent to recruits. Suspended rules do not take effect until modifications are made.
The board did not change its stance on the most contentious rules changes, which eliminate restrictions on how recruits are contacted and how many times coaches can contact recruits outside of official no-contact periods. Forty-eight schools want those measures overridden. Seventy-five schools must sign the override petition before Wednesday's 5 p.m. EDT deadline to put those rules on hold.

Bed is comfortable, staff is friendly and helpful. The location is excellent but...
No fridge in the room or anything you can drink. Parking is expensive and you will be paying more than what you are getting in this hotel
Room was very spacious with lots of windows. Soap bars were good - a decent size and not overly perfumed. Staff were very helpful in letting me make phone calls from the desk when my travel phone didn't work. Buffet breakfast was very good, but expensive.
Bigger towels would be nice. Armchairs were very deep and felt strange rather than comfortable. A second chair for the desk would have been useful in such a large room.
- location - clean rooms
- Market Street is full of homeless people and it's not very safe to walk nearby streets
It's so near to the shopping areas and major transportations in the city. The city view from level 24 was great!
The room looks a little tired. Would be really nice if some upgrading renovation is done. Tap was leaking and air conditioner was making a lot of noise every now and then.
Location Bar Staff
Room decor looked tired and in need of refurb
Dirty Too expensive for what offered
location services comfort
too expensive
The view from my room was great. Hotel staff were great.
There was no free wifi in the rooms only the lobby
Location, comfort, staff,veiw
The restaurant the food was great but the staff was not accomodating it was if we borner them.
Convenient location
Hall to rooms seem old.
Hotel location
Bathroom was old no free wifi hotel staff act as if you don't even exist. Serve yourself
The front desk staff and engineering people were extremely helpful and friendly. It's a good location with lots of places to go right around the hotel or within walking distance.
We had trouble requesting a mini fridge for medical purposes before we arrived at the hotel. We were told it was an outside company that we were talking to and not the people who actually work the front desk. Also the tv in our room did not work twice. They sent someone up right away to look at it the first time but the same problem happened again later. The windows and walls are also very thin and let all kinds of noise in.
Ideally situated to cover all key points of interest.
Lack of Wi-Fi in rooms. Perhaps a simple, light breakfast could be included.
Excellent location, friendly staff and clean facilities.
No free Wifi.
Location near union sq and across from Bart station, clean, large comfortable room.
Not much. Just a bit expensive but that is typical of sf. Also no inexpensive breakfast option, so had to go out or carry in from nearby places.
The front desk staff.
Room service Business Office I kept asking are you closing No communication. For cruise and sports teams that stay here not the hone to stay at.
Comfortable hotel, well positioned in SF, very helpful staff.
Nothing to remark upon
The front desk and concierge were very helpful.
Parking is too expensive!
Staff were very helpful in accommodating a late check out for us. Very close to the prime shopping locations. My partner and I stayed at some very expensive hotels this trip, (Parc 55 being by far the least expensive). And it more than held its own. Very impressed
No negatives.
Its location was perfect.
too busy with tour bus passengers and flight attendants in the hotel.
Loved the location. It was very convenient to Bart, the cable cars, and Enterprise rental. Plus I loved the full corner view from our room!
I am always a little stunned by the price but I do realize its San Francisco.
Staff were super helpful, attentive to detail and friendly. Beautiful hotel and excellent location
Bed was a little hard for my taste and my girlfriend swears that the lady who cleaned the room used her expensive perfume cuz she could smell it when she hadn't used it.
Location Breakfast Gym
Parking facilities seemed expensive for guests.
good location
old tired rooms need updating very large and impersonal

In case you missed some of the edginess of the last debate, it was on full display in a response from President Obama about Mitt Romney's budget plan, which he said includes "military spending that our military's not asking for."
Obama: Sequestration 'will not happen'
President Obama said unambiguously that the scheduled military cuts ordered by Congress in the absence of a debt-reduction deal will never take place.
Obama dings Romney over Syria critique
Bob Schieffer's next question was on Syria, and he asked President Obama if the US needs to reassess policy given the massive loss of life.
First Bin Laden mention comes from … Romney?
It was less than five minutes into the Boca Raton debate for Osama bin Laden's name to come up. It just didn't come from the candidate you might have expected.

EL PASO - "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls...welcome to the 2010 El Paso Circus Spectacular."
Behind the scenes of classic family entertainment... it's a three-ring circus with lots to juggle.
"We have trapeze, we have tigers, elephants, aerialists, showgirls, clowns."
Oh my! This spectacular also features El Paso native Audrey Alvarado... one of two female ringmasters in the entire world.
"I really like to see the children of course the little girls that come up to me and they're like so excited and I really like it when, you know, even sometimes the mothers come and say it's so nice to see a woman out there."
In its 100 years... the circus has jumped through many hoops to remain a popular form of entertainment... defeating the allure of new technology and the effects of economic downturn.
"There's nothing that we can show them to impress them other than it is live. They still get that contact. They still can get on top of an elephant which you can't simulate on a computer. So when you come to the circus you really go back to your childhood."
Now... let's talk about the elephants in the room... the biggest... most high-maintenanced stars of the show.
Fourth-generation elephant trainer Billy Morris always needs a helping hand... as these divas require three baths a day.
"We're pretty much family. You spend so much time with them making sure they're not hungry."
Food for thought... Morris says the four elephants in the show consume nearly 500 pounds of food per day... now that's a lot of junk in the trunk.
