Step inside Dr. Jane Goodall's shoes via Google Street View
Not everyone can be a 'Dr. Jane Goodall' and spend years in Tanzania studying chimpanzees, but now you can be a little closer to the experience thanks to Google Maps Street View.
The Google Maps team worked with the Jane Goodall Institute and the Gombe National Park to record the location with their backpack cameras (called the Trekker). The Trekker can record 360 degrees, and captured the paths through the park, the chimpanzees swinging through the trees, and features Jane's favorite location -- 'The Peak'.
Google Play Music All Access gets even better with Songza integration
I love me some music, and I love me some Google Play Music All Access. For real though, I use the search-giant's music service for multiple hours every day. Whether it is on my desktop, smartphone or tablet, I consume many songs with the service. Sure, other services like Beats Music and Spotify are good too, but All Access couples its large selection with an unrivaled visual style that makes the entire experience awesome. Heck, starting today, Android app begins using the super-sexy material design.
Unfortunately, with all streaming music services, media discovery can be tricky, as I often find myself listening to the same songs over and over again. While Google's genre-based and curated stations are a good way to discover, even that can be limiting. Today, Google turns it up to 11 and finally integrates features from its Songza acquisition into All Access. The result? Better discovery, plus music that matches a mood or task.
Google takes Firebase under its wing in latest cloud acquisition
Firebase, a company helping developers to produce apps and services that store and sync data in realtime, is the latest Google acquisition. With a user base of 110,000 developers three-year-old Firebase announced that it is joining Google and plans to continue the work it already does, but pointing out it will be possible to "do much more, much faster" with Google's resources and backing.
With Firebase's focus on the cloud and mobile, it is little surprise that Google's own announcement about the acquisition came on the Google Cloud Platform Blog. The two companies appear to be a good match, with Firebase's aim to "continue to be platform agnostic and provide clients for iOS, Android, the web, and more" being very much in keeping with Google's own ethos.
Download Windows 10 Technical Preview build 9860 now!
Windows 10 Technical Preview has just been updated. We've been working with build 9841 for a little while, and now it's time for an upgrade.
Today, Microsoft releases build 9860 to people signed up to the Windows Insider Program, and there are a number of key additions. There's the Action Center to handle notifications, new animations, and improved multi-monitor handling.
Is the iPad mini losing its appeal?
When Apple announced its new iPads last week it was, unsurprisingly, iPad Air 2 that got the most focus. It's Apple's flagship (and most expensive) tablet after all, and received the greatest improvements.
The iPad mini 3 had little new to offer, and so was presented almost as an afterthought. Rather curiously, Apple is now selling three generations of the mini at varying price points, but new sales data suggests the smaller tablet is falling out of favor with consumers.
Toshiba unveils the Satellite Radius 11 Convertible -- form and function at a low price
Toshiba has been making laptops for what seems like forever, and for many consumers, the machines have been synonymous with quality and value. The company produces computers for both bargain hunters and enthusiasts alike.
Today, the company announces a laptop that targets both laptop and tablet shoppers with the all-new Satellite Radius 11 Convertible, running Windows 8.1. It is extremely versatile and should appeal to consumers looking for value.
Log into Gmail with a USB drive -- Google adds support for Security Key
Two factor authentication (or two step verification, if you prefer) is very a la mode at the moment. Actually, it has been pushed by companies for some time, but a number of high profile security problems recently has brought it back to public attention again.
Enabling the security feature usually means entering a password as normal, in addition to a passcode sent to a mobile device. Today, Google makes things a little easier for, in its own words, "particularly security-sensitive individuals" by introducing support for Security Key.
Microsoft's Satya Nadella: 'We've always had freemium. Sometimes our freemium was called piracy'
Microsoft is committed to the cloud. CEO Satya Nadella is starting to hit his stride and his vision is coming into focus. The new leader seems to see the future in OneDrive and he isn't shy about explaining his reasoning.
In a lengthy interview with CNBC's Jon Fortt, Nadella tackled the concepts and ideas he has for the company. In discussing OneDrive, the CEO made it clear that the product would remain free to everyone. The model involves monetizing for those who need more than what is offered for the price of zero.
Nokia's HERE beta availability extends beyond Samsung Galaxy smartphones
HERE's upcoming availability for Samsung Galaxy smartphones was announced in late-August, and, at first, it appeared to be an exclusive launch. But, shortly after, Nokia's arm revealed that the app would actually be made available for every compatible Android smartphone "later this year".
HERE launched in beta for Samsung Galaxy smartphones only two weeks ago. For a first public release, the amount of features available is rather impressive, even for someone like me who is used to the fully-featured HERE suite on Windows Phone. And, now, everyone with an Android smartphone running any of the three Jelly Bean iterations or newer can also test what HERE has to offer (as long as the device has 1 GB of RAM or more), as the app's availability is extending beyond Galaxy smartphones.
New platform speeds up development of multi-platform enterprise apps
Mobile apps are becoming increasingly important to business as more consumers want to shop and interact online and more employees want to take advantage of BYOD and working away from the office.
Developing an app for multiple platforms, however, can prove costly and time consuming. Now though app platform as a service specialist Mendix is launching a new version of its Mendix App Platform that will allow enterprises to deliver apps faster and more cheaply.
Apple CEO Tim Cook writes to employees after Q4 2014 earnings call
Still in buoyant mood after the launch of the iPhone 6, Apple Watch, and iPad Air 2 -- even the Mac mini -- Apple gave its Q4 2014 earnings call yesterday. CEO Tim Cook announced that the company generated $42.1 billion in revenue in the quarter and a net profit of $8.5 billion, up from $37.5 billion and $7.5 billion for the same period last year. Referring to the "biggest iPhone launch ever", Cook explained that Apple is due to enter the holiday season with its "strongest product lineup ever".
He explained that 60 percent of the quarter's revenue came from international sales, and sales have gone up in just about every area of the company with the exception of iPad and iPod sales. The iPhone remains the biggest seller (some 39.272 million units, up 16.2 percent), and Mac sales are also strong (5.52 million units, up 20.7 percent).
How to switch from iOS to Android, according to Google
With Android 5.0 Lollipop, Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 on the horizon, as well as some great Android devices already on the market, some of you may be thinking about ditching iOS for Android. It is unquestionably a big decision, so you may want to ensure that the switch from an iPhone or iPad will be as painless as possible.
To help with the switch, Google has prepared a nifty guide that explains how you can migrate your data from iOS to Android, tackling key areas such as multimedia content, contacts, email, messaging and, of course, apps. You may recall that Apple posted a similar guide last month, detailing to would-be customers the steps they need to take to move from Android handsets to iPhones. Google now looks to simply be returning the favor.
Flagship Samsung Galaxy devices fit for classified US government use
Samsung today announces that flagship Galaxy smartphones and tablets are now approved by the US government for complete classified use within its agencies. The handsets have received the stamp of approval in no small part due to the security features made available by the built-in KNOX suite.
The announcement comes less than six months after Samsung revealed that a smaller number of its other KNOX-toting Galaxy devices have received the green light from the US Department of Defense, to be used on unclassified defense networks.
The faces behind the biggest apps in the world [infographic]
Whatever your mobile platform of choice, there are some apps which are all but impossible to avoid. Some -- like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube -- have reasonably dull histories; we all know the corporations behind their creation. But there are plenty of other big names with less well known histories. A new infographic from IrishApps.org reveals the stories behind some famous titles, and reveal the fortunes they have generated.
For example, did you know that Flappy Bird was originally going to be called Flap Flap, and was put together in just two days? Or that the founder of Summly was just 17 years old when he sold his app to Yahoo? How about the fact that the Ukrainian developer of WhatsApp is estimated to be worth $7 billion?
Building meaningful apps for the Internet of Things
Recently a fresh round of exciting wearables have been announced or shipped by large device manufacturers like Apple, Motorola, LG, and Samsung. These gadgets present new opportunities for developers to expand their existing apps by developing new user experiences. The user experience (UX) change can be subtle, but very impactful.
As an example, I've been using a watch wearable for several months with the primary function of tethering to my device and presenting notifications such as messages or phone calls, which at the surface seems like a small UX change. However, the benefit has been surprisingly tremendous. Previously, during evening walks with my wife, every single notification from my mobile device resulted in a reach into my pocket, flip open of the folio, swipe down on the notification, eyes transfixed to a 4in screen, to get to a message that 9 times out of 10 just wasn't that urgent. With this watch wearable I simply take a quick look at the notification from my wrist, the mobile device stays in my pocket (90 percent of the time) and I stay engaged in our conversation. Oh and I can use it to get the time too!

Wystan Hugh Auden (/ ' w s t n ' h ju ' d n / ; 21 February 1907 – 29 September 1973), who published as W. H. Auden, was an Anglo-American poet, born in England, later an American citizen, regarded by many critics as one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. His work is noted for its stylistic and technical achievements, its engagement with moral and political issues, and its variety of tone, form and content. The central themes of his poetry are love, politics and citizenship, religion and morals, and the relationship between unique human beings and the anonymous, impersonal world of nature.

Anjappar Chettinad - Wow
With the closing of Tabla and Chakra, the luxury of good Indian food close at hand has vanished. That has led to a couple of efforts to rediscover some of the favourites in other areas (will miss the Vindaloo at Babur), with some hit and miss experiences.
A friend suggested an expedition to Anjappar Chettinad, past the Golden Mile, way out on Eglinton east. We gathered the troups, and tried it the other night. With the location, it serves buffets at lunch and dinner, which seem to attract people. Don't be fooled. We ordered off the menu, and they turned the kitchen up to 11.
The Tandoori prawns, chicken reshmi and chili mushrooms had amazing flavours, not greasy, and well-spiced.
The Biryanis were sublime, with perfect texture, and a nice side sauce. The keema paratha was sublime, and the curried crab was an education.
In reading about this place in other postings, I've heard many positive comments on individual dishes, but also comments on how this is a suburban chain. In looking into this, there are two locations in Toronto, closely held, with what appears to be great quality control. Definitely worth a visit, but you've got to stray from the buffet to the menu, and let them know you're not afeared of having it like the locals.
re: Charles Yu
The Chettinad region is in the far south, and there is some warmth to the food, though they dumb it down if you don't appear to be southern Indian unless you ask otherwise.
There were definitely many pieces of the various herbs and spices in the dishes, including curry leaves. Curry leaves are more aromatic, though, with a subtle spice that's infused. Much like bay leaves in application.
Only been there once a couple of years back and I recall myself and the SO enjoying their crab curry.
Curry patha leaves add a wonderful flavour to dal/daal/dhal/dahl/...however you wish to spell it.
re: duckdown
To clarify I visited the one in Brampton.
Thanks for the review, I've driven past the Scarborough location quite a few times but it never really seemed all that busy. I'll have to check it out!
P.S. I like the 'way out on eglinton east' comment. It's good to see someone venturing past Victoria Park Ave in search of good eats. ;)
re: Dr Butcher
Just tried the Brampton site for lunch last week, and broke my no-Indian-buffet rule as there was a two-for-one deal on and I was with co-workers. I was very impressed, even though it was only buffet. Flavouringsand spice level were spot on (clear evidence of "doing things right", and I got a good head sweat going without having to ask for extra peppers), everything seemed fresh, and I didn't end up with the usual greased out nausea that most Indian buffets seem to trigger in me.
I believe the two-for-one buffet deal is lunch on weekdays only for the rest of the month.
re: gimel
confirmed the lunch 2for1 deal on their website (for September).
The lunch buffet is $8.99 on the weekday from 11:30 to 3pm.
Might have to check it out as 2 for 1 is great deal.
Here are the addresses:
3090 Eglinton Avenue East @ Markham, Scarborough
Bartley's Square, Unit # 5, 1 Bartley Bull Pkwy, Brampton,
(Highway 10 and Steeles)
re: childofthestorm
Add my name to the list of fans of Anjappar Chettinad. Eye-openingly good Indian food, even on buffet. Everthing Gimel said.
I absolutely adore this place. Actually, most of the 'locals' were having the breakfast buffet when I went on Saturday morning. It was fantastic too. I spent a lot of time in the south of India and it's my favourite regional cuisine. This version is very authentic and no one bats an eye when you eat with your hands. The menu is great, but there is no shame in the buffet!
re: munchieHK
Karaikudi is so much better than Anjappar. THey both feathure a certain type of South Indian cooking and I love this place better than Anjappar.
re: TOchowgal
I just drove by there the other day and wondered about it. Thanks for the recommendation. What dishes do you like there?
re: Full tummy
3 of us had the naan, chicken curry and the spicy shrimp curry. Also tried the pakora and chicken biriyani. The biryani was actually very good and the rest of the dishes were good.
I will definitely go back to try their other dishes.
re: TOchowgal
Two Indian buffets within a reasonable distance from where I am! My cup runneth over! Thanks for the reports!
re: TOchowgal
Well, it only took me about two and one-half years to get around to TOchowgal's tip on Karaikudi, but - wanting a little change from the first-rate Copper Chimney, just a 10-minute drive from my lodgings - a companion and I made our way one evening this week to that dismal stretch of Kennedy Rd. north of Lawrence Ave. upon which Karaikudi stands. Given its surroundings, I expected nothing, but it was surprisingly good. Airy, attractive interior, large tables, lots of space between them, good-qualify tableware, solicitous service - things you don't often find in modestly-priced Indian dives. But more to the point, tasty food with some zing (if you want it ). if you don't want it, you'd better speak up, and they'll accommodate you. We liked the soups, the veggie dishes, the biryani, the garlic naan. Some of the veggie dishes seem a buck or two overpriced, but most everything else is priced respectably. It won't replace Copper Chimney in my mind, but it's a good backup if you're hankering for the snap, crackle and pop of South Indian nosh. The largish restaurant was about one-third full - pretty good for a Monday night in that part of town - with what looked like serious people who seemed to know their South Indian cuisine, and won't put up with anything that might be dumbed down for interlopers like me. So I'm assuming we got the real deal.
Any recent datapoints on Anjappar Chettinad ?
And do all three locations operate at the same level or is there one particular standout ?
I am interested in some descriptive data on the vast Chettinad dishes on their menu. Not particularly interested in the buffet, but on my next visit to Toronto I would like to cut a wide swath through the menu and would like to know where to focus.
The menu looks incredible.
re: Nab
I always go to the Scarborough location on Eglinton, which I believe is the original location. Standouts include the Chicken 65 from the apps, the mutton pepper fry (hot as hell), and the crab masala...I end up with spicy brown gravy up to my elbows eating that dish.
Make sure to get some raita or yogurt or whatever because they bring the heat big-time.
re: Nab
I've tried the Scarborough location irregularly over several years - last time a few months ago - and my BIG problem is that they don't layer their spicing - it seems to be a concentration on chilis and hence just HOT. Pricing is fair for the quality - but unless you're addicted to HOT don't really see the point in going there (although lots of parking!).
Can't argue against them - excellent range of dishes - but I prefer more layered spicing, so only go when I need an extreme fix.
re: estufarian
This sounds like the opposite end of the spectrum of problems with many Indian restaurants - instead of pre-made batches of master sauces being repurposed for every dish, it sounds like they are making dishes fresh but rushing through the process of layering spices.
estufarian, do you have other preferred favourites for regional S.Indian cuisine ?
re: Nab
The 'race to the cheapest' has caused the demise of most of my favourites. I'm still searching.
If you want Keralan cuisine, then there is one outstanding survivor - but be aware that it's at the top end of the Indian Restaurant price spectrum (and totally worth it for my money) - Aravind (on Danforth). Proteins are organic; most ingredients are fresh and the menu is small - no repurposed sauces here. Also a well-chosen wine list. Sounds too good to be true - but it's struggling. Their price point (and location) is out of the norm for 'Indian restaurants'. But it's no more expensive than many of the neighbourhood bistros that are all around the city - just that Indian food is 'expected' to be much cheaper.
Layered spicing, full flavours and the best 'fish' I've had in Indian places in Toronto (as befits their Keralan origin). And the service is also excellent.
Right now my choice as the 'best Indian' in the city although I seem to end up at Copper Chimney (NOT southern) more often as there are more choices and it's cheaper (OK I've just undermined my own price argument - but Copper Chimney has easier access as well).
re: estufarian
Thanks, estufarian. Aravind looks great and it's not just anywhere one can find Keralan cuisine. I hope they thrive.
As an occasional visitor, I am probably being a little too quick to judge, but in a town teeming with Indian restaurants, it seems next to impossible to find a few gems. OTOH, there are several world-class Pakistani restaurants.
re: haggisdragon
Well, we usually eat Pakistani food at home, but we'll occasionally go to BBQ Tonite in Mississauga which can be really sensational at their best, but my folks tell me when the owner is not in the food is middling. But we enjoy the barbecue and I think they have one of the best renditions of maghaz masala anywhere (pictured below). My uncle was a longtime bihari kabab-walla in Karachi and his were the best until I tried BBQ Tonite's. Then I tried Patna Kabab House's barbecue in Scarborough and was summarily blown away by the kabab craft going on there - each kabab has its own texture, spicing, and treatment with fire - the guys are like yakitori masters. Their nehari was also superb (also pictured below). On my next visit home I plan to try Bihari Kabab & Biryani House in Scarberia too.
I am blanking on a couple of other places in Mississauga which I'll have to ask my folks about.
Gerrard Street is no longer really on our hit list. We went to Lahore Tikka House a few months ago and it was a total bust. I have very fond memories of going to Chandni Chowk 20 yrs ago and I was surprised to see that not only are they still around but they appear to be in worse physical shape than before which I thought was impossible ! There was one other place, I think called 786, which kinda set off the chow-dar but I've not been. When we go out we're usually eating barbecue or the big heavy specialty dishes like haleem, nehari, paya, etc.
But compared to other big Pakistani hubs on the continent (Chicago, SF, Houston) - I think Toronto is right up there in the big leagues.
re: estufarian
Made it to Patna Kabab House - their menu is on the website, except maybe 1/3 of the items were unavailable the night I was there.
Indeed the Kababs are excellent. My favourite (to my surprise) was the chicken, which was perfectly spiced. I also loved the texture. The lamb and beef were good - but the texture is similar so I found some 'sameness' across the three. Spicing is indeed different for each, but the lamb seemed the most subdued.
Another hit was the Channa Curry (Chickpea) also perfectly spiced.
I was disappointed with the Nehari (beef) - not the flavour, but rather the texture. The beef itself had been tenderized, giving it a 'slippery' texture and the sauce had a similar 'gooey' (not quite gelatinous) texture that I didn't particularly like - but maybe that's cultural.
The milky naan was OK - served its purpose to mop up the sauces; but was bland in both taste and texture.
But overall an excellent find.
Next time I'll try some of the alternative kabab offerings (if available) such as the Bihari and the Gola.
re: estufarian
I'm glad you went and shared the experience, estufarian. Indeed the "Silky Kabab" (aka reshmi kabab - chicken) is a delight - an impossibly light texture. You may also enjoy the "Darbari Kabab" which is an unusual lamb-chicken mix, lamb flavour predominating, but with that same smooth texture as the chicken kabab. The "Gola Kabab", in contrast, is a pleasingly dense, meaty golf ball that gets much more char-treatment than the lighter kababs, yet retains its juice. The bihari kabab, having been marinated in papaya (and mustard oil, among other things), has already been tenderized and gets just the right kiss of fire before drying out. I've only been there once, but the differing treatments of spicing, smoke, grind of meat, char, etc I found striking. Most places will dump a Shan packet onto some meat and just slap it on the fire without a care.
I'm curious about the nehari. Gelatinous would be a desirable texture/consistency as this is a dish that should be laden with bone marrow. Many places add a cornstarch slurry that can add an off-taste and off-texture. I enjoyed the nehari at PKH and, as I think can be seen in the picture above, was pretty rich with marrow. I do agree, the Milky Naan, while robust with eggs/milk/yogurt, is not as flavourful as the Neopolitan tang of a traditional tandoori bread, but a little goes a long way for mopping and sopping.
re: estufarian
Good point, estufarian. The marrow should actually be well-integrated, melted into and throughout the gravy, but if served at a cooler temperature it can take on that gooey texture. I also enjoy marrow on toast, and even enjoy nihari this way the next morning for breakfast.

re: autopi
Sorry, I can't recall a time I've eaten Pakistani food downtown, autopi. I usually eat "downtown food" downtown. ;)
I also recall a memorable breakfast had at a food court in Mississauga - the place is called Tabaq, and I see they have two locations now (website below). The poori-halwa brekkie was a very good value at $2.99 - poori, halwa, aloo, channa, achar, yogurt - it was the channa that I recall as being absolutely sublime, and I've just never, ever had a version to get incredibly excited about. I still vividly remember that one. The menu looks to big to be good across the board, so hopefully folks will sniff out the gems. I note that they have 'katakut' - a dish that traditionally is comprised of a variety of offal (liver, kidneys, heart) plus ground meat (keema) cooked in a myriad of spices on a high-heat karhai. The name is given for the sound made when hacking up everything on the karhai. Few places actually use offal - BBQ Tonite does on very rare occasions (and with advance notice) - but I'd be curious to know if these guys do. They're in close proximity to a few butchers, so I have hopes.
re: Nab
Not a exactly restaurant, but there's a terrific tiny little Pakistani grocer that also sells some excellent prepared foods - Eastern Foods on Hurontario (just north of Dundas) in Mississauga. I was highly surprised to see Jim Leff stumble upon this nearly hidden gem in his trip to Toronto several years ago:
The shammi kebabs are maybe the best I've encountered anywhere. The biryani is decent, the parathas excellent.
re: Nab
Was planning to try Anjappar Chettinad in Scarborough tonight but their website advertises their "Aachi Mess" night on a Friday eve - long tables, music and only battery powered lanterns! Has anyone been on a Friday and can shed any light (battery powered) light on what this is all about, and whether the quality of the food suffers for the entertainment?
re: Nab
So I did finally make it to the Mississauga outpost.
The menu is vast and my sense is that it would take many visits to really get a handle on things here.
Chicken 65 was fine - it's a bar snack, nothing to get too excited about, though it was a pretty tasty rendition, one that my 4 year old niece probably enjoyed more than me.
Vegetarian biryani was a poor order on our part.
The parottas were excellent, and I enjoyed the straight plain parotta moreso than the mutton keema stuffed version - unadorned one can fully appreciate the impossible balance of flakiness and pliability they achieve, though the chicken gravy that accompanied the keema parotta was a savoury & slurp-worthy bit.
Chicken Chettinad seemed a requisite order and, while it was plenty tasty, the version of this dish with which I have become most well-acquainted is a totally different beast, much sharper and bolder in flavour - Anjappar's version was almost too integrated, the complexity of spicing muted, and somewhat undistinguished.
In stark contrast, the kattharikkai kuzamambhu (eggplant curry) was nothing short of sensational - sharp puckering notes of tamarind, a bracing heat and a spectacularly complex and aromatic curry that I'm still thinking about today. I eat a lot of different cuisines' curries and this one was a marvel I will not soon forget. Even better the next day served with some pongal at home.
Despite being stuffed, I had to try a dosa so out came a 4-foot ghee paper dosa which was also terrific, particularly the chutneys and sambar and rasam and potatoes. My family was already stuffed to the gills, but once they started tearing into this, it was gone before we knew it. Excellent - if flying solo, I'd come back for dosas alone.
Nice write-up of the newly-opened NY branch of Anjappar Chettinad in the New York Times, I need to try some of the recommended dishes at the Toronto branch...
re: childofthestorm
re: guanubian
OK, I tried Anjappar. It was good, but I was underwhelmed. I had Gobi 65 -- tandoori-red cauliflower with a vinegary dipping sauce -- and Mutton Sukka Varuval -- kind of a super-spiced bowl of tender meat, variously referred to as lamb, goat and sheep (I think it was sheep). I thought the former was good but nothing special; the latter was a bit of a sleeper -- it seemed good, then really began to smolder nicely in my mouth, as it featured just about "every spice in the Indian larder," to quote a reviewer. So respect, but nothing really notable.
I'm a little jaded, because chettinad food is stunning and I've sampled it in a pretty authentic setting.
Looking forward to Southern Spice to see if it stands up.

Ask Slashdot: Using electric motors to simulate weight training
ShadowBot (908773) writes | about 2 years ago2
ShadowBot (908773) writes "Hello. I'm currently working on a mod project that involves being able to generate different amounts of weight on the fly for something similar to an exercise machine.
My current research is pointing me towards a Torque motor, as a motor that can continuously apply torque even when it is being prevented from moving.
However, will it be able to continue applying this torque even when the rotor is being forced to rotate in the opposite direction to the that the motor is trying to move it in?
Also, is it possible to vary the amount of torque being applied to simulate different weights?
The goal is not just to provide resistance to movement, but to actually simulate a weight which wants to drop to the floor while the user is pulling it in the opposite direction.

Rachel Uchitel's lawyer is demanding that the New York Post turn over video of the interview the New York Post shot with Rachel Uchitel.
Daniel Horowitz tells TMZ ... the entire interview -- in which Rachel talks about her fiance who was killed during the 9/11 attack -- was videotaped.
The New York Post's Page Six Magazine ran a lengthy story today, in which Rachel is quoted as saying, "I believe Andy was meant to die because he was too good. It would have been tragic if we got into fights and then divorced ... I'm glad I didn't get to see any flaws that time brings on everyone. I would [otherwise] be a fat housewife with three kids living in Sands Point, Long Island."
Horowitz claims the video will show the Post took her statements out of context and it was designed as a hit piece.
Horowitz and Rachel say they are now "seriously considering" suing the Post.
RIP Andrew. Sorry that your finance was a money-grubbing ho.
I remember her saying this. It was not being mean, she was trying to get a grip on her loss.
Bad nose job. Bad lip job. Looks like a bad chin job too. Everyone knows about the boob job. The woman is a whole passel of ugly. What a touching way to keep your fiancee alive in people's memories. You have no soul, woman.
Ah, so the interview WAS recorded. Kind of puts a crimp in Horowitz's plans to sue if it turns out she did say what she's now trying to deny.
She's too much of a whore to ever be just a housewife
A well-known whore who's only famous for being a whore is threatening to sue because it damages her reputation.................as a whore?
That's no excuse. Whether good intentions or bad. Ask yourself, would you want the person closest to you right now, in life, to be dead so he/she would never see your flaws and vice/versa? THAT'S SICK, AND DISGUSTING TO THINK THAT WAY. Shame on you for even aknowledging such a thought.
Makes sense. She had to return the hush money she got from Tiger. Her 15 minutes of fame are long since over and she has no other means of income (at least not that's been publicized--and if there were one, I'm sure we'd have heard about it). Her late fiance would be ashamed of her behavior and is probably spinning in his grave at this very minute.
I am so sure... If she is not guilty of saying that let everyone see the video. What a horrible lady.
Will HOrrorwitless the Media hoar attorney sue the post , and damage the only way he knows how to try a case. I DONT THINK SO..... SUE one media outlet and your toast.
Man, I thought the post 9/11 pic made her look bad, then I saw this. She is NOT aging like a fine wine, thats for sure. Kind of a Tranny-like look she's got going there.
Rachel, your 15 minutes are up. Goodbye.
If she was caught on camera saying what she denies saying, then why the law suit. Is not like the public perception of her will change, when you hear her name the first thing that comes to mind is a home wrecking whore. This is just another Lindsay Lohan type of lawsuit=frivolous.
I'm SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING playing for the New Orleans Saints tonight, too.
She is just another Gloria Alred protege - always threatening to sue, blackmailing people, giving threats. Put your actions where your mouth is - either put up or shut up. This plan worked for you the best to make you a first class ho!

Live in or visiting a country without access to safe abortion? Women on Web provide online access to medical abortion pills, as well as information about how women can access these medicines in their countries. You can print out stickers giving information on safe abortions from their website. Sticking these up on your trip might just save a woman's life.

We're asking people to donate a small (or large) sum for every day that 40 Days for Life spend outside abortion clinics this spring.
At Easter we'll add up all the pennies, and let 40DfL know how much money they've helped us raise for a great #prochoice cause. We're sure they'll be delighted,

Follow along here on tumblr, and over on twitter, where we're 40daysofchoice
Here is one of the leaflets 40 Days for Life are handing out to people outside abortion clinics in the UK. They say they can 'provide you with sound medical advice' and then go on to give false information about abortion like claiming it gives people breast cancer and makes them infertile.
Also, particularly nasty is the suggestion that having an abortion will cause suicidal thoughts, eating disorders and drug abuse and 'damage to maternal instinct and to bonding process with any other children you have'.
Take a stand against lying to pregnant people about their bodies and support our campaign.
That's right. We were at the BPCA opening event in Stratford last night, and pleased to see so many others turn up to support our right to access reproductive health care free from harassment.
From today, anti-choice protesters will be outside abortion clinics in London, Cardiff, Birmingham, Leeds, Leamington Spa, Milton Keynes and Manchester. If you want to help us show them they're not welcome, here's what you can do:

Tell Bears fans what you really think about safety M.D. Jennings.
Jennings is a very likeable player. He's a high-character guy that will do anything his coaches ask of him. He definitely has a place in this leauge. However, the talent isn't quite there to be a starting safety in this league, in my opinion.
Jennings is a willing tackler, but he's not overly physical. He's reliable in coverage, but he rarely makes plays on the ball. There is nothing about his game that "wows" you, but he also isn't terrible by any means. Jennings is a good team guy that could be a reliable backup, but he's just not an impact player and that is what the Packers were looking for from the safety position last year.

Today in Making People Stupider, I present to you the Jezebel article by Erin Gloria Ryan titled "About That Time Hilary Clinton Smeared a Tween Rape Victim".
Read it. Please. Yes, including the comments section.*
Here's are two highlights :
On the other hand, how massively fucked is it that our legal system expects and encourages attorneys to treat rape victims like this? And that even Hillary Clinton didn't have the balls to set her career goals aside for a moment and stand up to what she must have known was bullshit, even in the midst of a time in her career she claims was devoted to serving children and families?
Hillary Clinton didn't 'laugh at a rape victim' as the coverage errantly insists, but she definitely was the sort of lawyer who would attack the credibility of a rape victim in pursuit of legal victory.
You're right, Erin. It couldn't possibly be that Hillary was doing her job as a criminal defense lawyer and had an ethical obligation to defend her client however she could—it was that she had "career goals". She should have "had the balls" to roll over and sell her client up the river, in derogation of her ethical duties to her client, because she's the sort of lawyer who DARES to attack the credibility of a complaining witness.
Oh, and "the children".
I was going to write a much longer, angrier, piece about the history of what criminal defense lawyers do, our ethics, our duties to our clients, etc., but it would be wasted
breath keystrokes.
I'll just say this: criminal defense lawyers have an ethical obligation to defend their clients. There is no "I understand, but…". It simply is.
Erin Gloria Ryan, shame on you for making people stupider today .
*I am ashamed to say I broke Rule 1 of the Internet and argued in the comments.
Victory. Not just victory, but epic victory. Judge Lawlor not only dismissed the case against my client, but also sanctioned the other side and their attorney, Chad Cooper. This was going to a fun call to my client…
I have to be honest, Chad Cooper might have been the worst lawyer I ever had the displeasure of dealing with. The only positive thing I could muster up about Chad is how much I loved mopping the floor with him on every motion or court proceeding. His suits never fit right, and he didn't make a lot of sense in court. I couldn't believe anyone was paying this guy money to represent them. Every time I dealt with Chad I felt a sense of disdain and dislike. Part of me took great pleasure watching Judge Lawlor constantly rip him apart.
They key to winning this case was easy, really. File lots of motions, overwhelm him, and give him no mercy. "The Chadster", as I liked to call him around the office, wouldn't respond on time. Then the judge would get angry, and sanctions would be issued. Chad was always so overwhelmed. This was a constant theme throughout the case:
"Hey Jordan, it's Chad… I'm a little jammed up this month. Do you think I could get a 14 day extension?"
"Chad, the best I can do is give you three days. That's it. If you don't like it, put it before Judge Lawlor again. Actually, I think I would like to see Judge Lawlor. Wouldn't that be so much fun? I'll even wear a tie like a big boy."
"…three days is fine, Jordan. Thanks."
From there, the Chadster would put together a half hearted, sloppy reply. After about six months of this pattern, Judge Lawlor had enough. Chad and his client got sanctioned, and my client was let out of the lawsuit. I immediately sent Chad a letter informing him that I was going to sue him and his client for bringing suit in the first place.
It is Tuesday at 9.30am and I am in the booth.
The booth is a tiny box where I have the honor of talking to my client through an inch of bullet-proof glass. I say "talking", though it's really more like yelling, since it's pretty hard to hear through that glass.
"Booth" is a misnomer too. "Booth" reminds me of the precursor to something fun. You buy tickets to a movie or carnival rides at a booth. No such fun was happening today.
Really, the booth is purgatory, a limbo my clients sit in after they've made their way from the prison and to the courthouse basement's holding cells, but before they enter the courtroom where they await final judgment.
This particular morning, I am wearing a navy flannel Brooks Brothers No. 1 sack suit, a white shirt I freshly pressed at 5.30 that morning, and a somber tie that reflected my mood.
In gross juxtaposition, my client is in an orange prison jumpsuit and has a thermal on underneath to keep warm. I guess this hell follows Dante's rules.
My client is a good man who'd recently made a series of terrible decisions, all of which led to where he is today. Despite his cock-ups, he was truthful and admitted his mistakes not only to his family, but to members of his community.
Then the police became involved.
And he got arrested.
And his mistakes became a "case."
And that's how we ended up on opposite sides of the same sheet of glass on Tuesday at 9.32am. Read the rest of this entry »
From the moment I saw the fictional character ADA Alexandra Cabot on Law and Order: SVU I knew I wanted to be a lawyer. My thought was, and I kid you not, that I was going to be one of the most well-known, admired, feared, young, blonde lawyers to sweep a city off its feet.
Before I continue, let me just say you're right, that almost never happens. Alas, I thought it would.
Had Keith Lee's The Marble and The Sculptor: From Law School to Law Practice been one the books recommended to me (instead of Gideon's Trumpet, etc.) I would have known from page 5 the truth – "the practice of law is nothing like you have seen in the media." I learned that the hard way in law school.
As a "green" lawyer, and I mean very green, I appreciate the brutal honesty of what lies ahead for me having just passed the Bar. However, Keith's advice will resonate with a broad spectrum of people – from aspiring lawyers who are contemplating law school to anyone entering a new profession. The chapters are short and sweet, covering dozens of areas from courses to take (and not take) in law school to the importance of writing well in law to professional development. Keith isn't afraid to tell people like me, who think (for me, thought) being a lawyer is the most glamorous and lucrative profession in the world, that failure and embarrassment are inevitable. The theme of the book is straightforward – do everything like you give a damn. Period. Success in both your personal and professional life will follow. As Keith reiterates, whining gets you no where. Keith doesn't care that the legal job market is in flux or that a law school exam may be too hard. Keith instead sheds light on taking the path less traveled – get off your butt and seek opportunities, network and volunteer all with the expectation of receiving nothing in return.
Although I am past the law school and Bar studying phase, I can't help but think "crap, I really know nothing about the practice of law." However, I leave Keith's easy-to-read book with the most honest and simple piece of advice I have yet to receive — I am the master of my own success. Keith can't provide it. My mentors can't provide it. No one can force me to network or to attend Bar events. But Keith has provided an easy-to-follow map to help me get there (…and to maybe one day become Alexandra Cabot).
The rain came down on the courthouse windows as I sat staring at the empty bench. The jury had been deliberating for hours. I stood up and started pacing, wishing I hadn't quit smoking years ago… a smoke would be great right now.
"Jordan, you look nervous" the client said to me.
"I'm just thinking. I've been out of the office for a week now. That's all…"
Truth be told I was nervous as all hell. But a good nervous. I felt alive.
Just as the client was about to say something, the chamber doors opened and Judge Shemlin walked out. Here comes our verdict…
At that moment, I thought back to 2009 and the first case I had ever tried. I was an associate at Wolf Rebman, a small suburban Pennsylvania law firm. I second chaired a case with my boss, James, and we had won against all odds. James had tried hundreds of jury trials in his career. He was a man of few words, and never showed even the slightest bit of emotion. I remembered the jury deliberations in that case, and asking James if he was nervous…
"Honestly, Jordan, I'm nervous as hell" James told me, still looking cool as ice, with a slight grin on his face. "The day I'm not nervous is the day I retire from law. Even after 30 years of practice, it never gets any less nerve racking. It just doesn't. But man, when you win, it's the best feeling in the world. There is nothing better than winning a jury trial, nothing in the entire world…"
James had spent his career trying cases, and mostly winning them. He started his practice very shortly after law school, and then spent a lifetime building it up. After 30 years of practice, James had many boats, several vacation houses, and he never needed to work again. He was the consummate trial lawyer. Cool, calculated, and someone who was prepared for every situation.
Ever since I worked for him, I always wanted to be James.

You implicitly concede that the state is undesirable when you argue that anarchism will lead to the imposition of a new government. By making this negative point against anarchist theory you unwittingly agree with anarchism in order to attack it. Why insist on calling it a "necessary evil" and not acknowledge that it is evil?
I made this after been inspired by a post by MoralAnarchism.

A spoonful of sugar for Glaxo's Witty
Alistair Osborne: Business commentary
A whirlwind of initiatives was unleashed by GlaxoSmithKline yesterday intended to convince investors that the scandal-hit British pharmaceuticals giant had a viable future. It included cutting £1 billion in costs, spinning off a share of its HIV business and a promise to be the first company to release an ebola vaccine by the end of the year. Glaxo, which has been embroiled in multiple corruption scandals this year, unveiled a raft of self-help measures to show that it could counter plunging sales of Advair, its blockbuster respiratory drug. Sir Andrew Witty, the chief executive, said that everything the drugs maker was doing was "exactly as we laid out in our strategy in 2008" as he reported results for the third quarter and first nine months of the year. Revenues fell by 10 per cent to £5.6 billion during the third quarter, dragged down by a "particularly painful" 25 per cent fall in sales of Advair in the United States. Operating profits fell by 6 per cent to £1.8 billion. The figures were better than expected, however, and, in an attempt to draw a line under concerns about its dividend, Glaxo, which has a history of treating dividend payments as "sacrosanct", said that it would raise the full-year payment by 3 per cent to 80p and would hold next year's at the same level. Shares in Glaxo closed up 35p at £13.77. The company said that it was considering floating a minority stake in ViiV Healthcare, its high-growth HIV treatment joint venture in which it
The boss of Home Retail has insisted that the group's Homebase chain is not on the auction block, despite a decision to close a quarter of the struggling DIY brand's stores. John Walden, the chief executive, said: "It's not for sale, we're not running a process. Should we run a process to sell the business in the future, we'll be forthright about it." Home Retail makes the vast majority of its profits out of Argos, the catalogue retailer, which is beginning to show the benefits of a five-year turnaround plan that started in 2012. Several City analysts have queried whether the marriage of Argos and Homebase makes sense in the long term. Mr Walden insisted that he was committed to Homebase and that the closure of 80 outlets was part of a first step towards a revitalisation of the business, with a greater emphasis on digital retailing. "Don't be mistaken i
Lloyds Banking Group is set to cut a further 9,000 jobs over the next three years as part of a strategy to be outlined by the taxpayer-backed lender next week that will shrink its workforce by nearly 10 per cent. The cuts, reported by The Times this month, are part of a strategy to be unveiled by Antonio Horta-Osório, the chief executive, alongside the bank's third-quarter results on October 28. Mr Horta-Osório is expected to focus on automation of the lender, leading to thousands of jobs being lost in clerical operations, such as mortgage processing and account openings. According to City sources, the Lloyds boss believes that complete automation is essential if he is to modernise the business and ensure that it retains a cost advantage over its rivals, Barclays and Santander. Last year Lloyds set up a division to work on plans to automate manual proc

New York Yankees radio announcers John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman of WFAN radio in New York both have a serious issue for someone of their profession: they have a serious blind spot at Fenway Park!
From the looks of it, somebody at the Boston Red Sox house either needs to buy some Windex or they previously attempted to clean the window with a diamond shard.
Video courtesy of MLB.com:
While things may be pristine at the new Yankee Stadium for John and Suzyn, the same can't be said for the much older Fenway Park in Boston, which either affords the road team's announcer no view at all or a poor view and a really cold night.
To make matters worse, the YES Network announcers were goofing on them on live television. Anyone who follows the Yankees and knows this radio pair had to at least give a chuckle watching that sight.
Sterling has been known to get simple play-by-play calls on the field wrong while calling the game (aside from his antics calling home runs, etc), but in Boston it'll more acceptable after this.
One has to wonder with such a rivalry between the Sawx and Yanks if this was done on purpose. Hmmm…

This "controversy" over Romney's comments to cut PBS funding is amusing. Folks are acting as if the last days of Big Bird are upon us when all Romney was saying was that PBS' market would have to fully support PBS programming under his stated scenario. If a nation-wide non-profit Christian music station like K-LOVE can fund itself via their market (21mm listeners/month) then PBS could find a way as well via theirs (144mm viewers/month).
And, yes, I was brought up on–and enjoyed–PBS programming (Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, Reading Rainbow, 1-2-3 Contact, Mathnet); I was introduced to Jeremy Brett's quintessential portrayal of Sherlock Holmes (which impacted my love of Doyle's character, story in general, and my falling in love with England profoundly) as well as the genius of British TV/storycraft via Inspector Morse, Cadfael, many BBC adaptations of Victorian-era literature (e.g. Dickens, Austen); and I occasionally check in with NOVA (such as their upcoming episode "Secrets of the Viking Sword") or (more often) Masterpiece when these have something of interest–OR whenever they feature a Celtic Woman concert. So it's not like I do not appreciate the channel's product. But being part of the free market isn't a nightmare; accountability really does make a product better for its consumers.

Each with many years of playing experience, the four members of The Michael D. Band have vast, yet diverse musical backgrounds. Their courteous professionalism and tight, consistent, and energized performances have quickly made them a favorite with the fans and with venues across the country.
(Vocals/Rhythm Guitar/Mandolin)
As a native of Indiana, Michael began his musical career as a Solo Artist at DePauw University, where he also played football and ran track. He earned his degree in Biology and moved on to play music for five years around Nashville, where he became an accomplished songwriter. Since then, Michael has been touring the country and has also had a recording contract with Hag Records.
(Lead guitar/Vocals)
Born and raised in the Heart of Kentucky, one of Kevin's many credits include working as the Guitar Tech for six years for Country music superstar, John Michael Montgomery. His abilities as a guitar player, sound engineer, vocalist, and his wisdom from years of national touring make him a cornerstone of the Michael D. Band.
A current resident of Lexington, KY, Steve toured the US, Canada and Japan with the award winning country music group Exile from 1999 to 2009. Since then he has mostly performed with local and regional acts around Kentucky. Previously endorsed by Johnny Rabb Drumsticks and Evans Drum heads, Steve's aggressive groove style of drumming and impressive harmony vocals make him the missing link that this band has been looking for.
(Bass Guitar/Vocals)
Raised in Kansas City, Missouri, Josh started his music career touring with Elvis II. He went on to play with a few successful regional bands, playing different styles ranging from Blues to Rock N Roll. In addition to becoming the newest member of the band, he is also currently earning his Bachelor Degree in Music Production at Full Sail University. With his accomplishments as a bass player, added to his strong work ethic and desire to succeed, Josh is a great asset and a perfect fit for the band.
