Hillary Clinton made history Thursday evening when she became the first woman to accept the presidential nomination from a major political party. Women who were there in Philadelphia to watch the moment talked to Yahoo News about what it meant to them. Several described the experience as "overwhelming" and framed it as not just a victory for their fellow Clinton supporters, but a win for all women.
Cher fans were upset over the confusing hashtag mix-up that occurred on Twitter.
Vice President Joe Biden urged the Republican-controlled Senate to finally grant Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland a confirmation hearing. Retired federal Judge Timothy Lewis joined Biden in the White House's Weekly Address on Saturday to illustrate his argument that the Senate should put aside partisan politics to give Garland consideration. After all, Biden noted, Lewis was nominated to the bench by Republican President George H.W. Bush and confirmed by a Democratic Senate a month before the 1992 presidential election.
In the summer of 1984, after all, kissing was all the talk at the Democratic National Convention, as strategists tied themselves in knots discussing how Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro — the first co-ed presidential ticket in history — should interact. Instead, the power of the moment was how awkward it wasn't. Two politicians stood on a stage, hands clasped and raised, and two things were true: a) that the woman was the lead candidate, the man her second, and b) it looked perfectly normal.
America, Tim Kaine has heard your dad jokes, and he thinks they're funny. The Virginia senator made his campaign debut last weekend at a Miami rally where Hillary Clinton officially named him as her running mate. Based on the stream of jokes that flooded Twitter Wednesday night, one of the biggest takeaways from Kaine's DNC speech was that Clinton's running mate is really just a sweet suburban dad.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton cast herself as a steady leader at a "moment of reckoning" for America on Thursday night, contrasting her character with what she described as the dangerous and volatile Donald Trump. In the biggest speech of her quarter century in politics, Clinton accepted the nomination for the Nov. 8 election with a promise to make the United States a country that works for everyone. "We are clear-eyed about what our country is up against. But we are not afraid," she said.

On the night Hillary Clinton made history by accepting the Democratic Party's nomination for the presidency, the world wasn't just watching at home passively as it had in past elections, but speaking out and reacting in real time over social media. Data from Instagram, Twitter and other services also indicate which moments from the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia resonated with the American people. For instance, the picture that Clinton shared of herself and President Obama embracing after he delivered an impassioned speech in support of her candidacy Wednesday night became the most-liked Instagram photo (146,000) from any candidate in this presidential race.
Yahoo News enlisted participants at the Democratic and Republican national conventions — representing different viewpoints and roles — to file daily diary entries about their on-the-ground experiences in Philadelphia and Cleveland.

Gen. John Allen rallies the troops, a loving daughter speaks, and Hillary Clinton accepts the nomination for president in Philadelphia.

When Hillary Clinton stepped to the podium on the final night of the 2016 Democratic National Convention to accept her party's nomination for president, she attempted to do something that Democrats have rarely, if ever, succeeded in doing. "Here's the sad truth: There is no other Donald Trump," Clinton said. Thanks to Donald Trump — and his dark, in many ways un-Republican vision of America — she may actually pull it off.
Television viewers who watched day two of the Democratic National Convention may have noticed signs with the words "Do All the Good" blanketing the crowd in the Wells Fargo Center. Like many Methodist kids, Clinton would have been taught the famous saying in church. Methodists usually attribute the words to John Wesley, one of the 18th century founders of the denomination, although as with the many apocryphal sayings of St. Francis, there's no evidence that Wesley ever said or wrote the words.
Hillary Clinton accepted her party's nomination Thursday night in a sweeping speech in which she promised to be a president for all Americans and presented a liberal agenda influenced by the ideas of Sen. Bernie Sanders' supporters. Clinton also painted her Republican rival, Donald Trump, as a hotheaded, divisive figure who cannot be trusted as commander in chief. "He wants us to fear the future and fear each other," Clinton said of Trump.

Chelsea Clinton's purpose was to make that possibility more likely, and to soften the image of a mother who many voters say they see as brittle, to paint a warmer portrait of a woman many voters say they do not like. "My earliest memory is my mom picking me up after I'd fallen down, giving me a big hug and reading me 'Goodnight Moon'," Chelsea said. Chelsea Clinton, embraces her mother, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, during the final day of the Democratic National Convention.
Hillary Clinton on Thursday received the strong endorsement of retired Marine Corps Gen. John Allen, who commanded the war in Afghanistan and more recently was President Obama's special envoy to the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL. Flanked by a wall of retired flag officers from all of the military's services and younger veterans of the wars of 9/11, the martial display served as a kind of protective armor for a presidential candidate whom Republican nominee Donald Trump has savaged as weak and feckless on national security. "We stand before you tonight to endorse Hillary Clinton for president of the United States of America," Allen said of Clinton, who will claim the Democratic nomination later Thursday night.
Khizr Khan, the father of a fallen U.S. soldier who earned a Purple Heart, criticized Donald Trump on Thursday night for his plan to temporarily bar immigrants from Muslim countries. "Let me ask you, have you even read the United States Constitution?" Khan asked, speaking at the Democratic National Convention. Khizr Khan, father of fallen U.S. Army Capt. Humayun S.M. Khan, holds up a copy of the Constitution of the United States, as his wife listens during the final day of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia , Thursday, July 28, 2016.
The presidential campaign of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders made an appeal to its supporters on Thursday, urging them not to disrupt Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's Democratic National Convention speech. Sanders' campaign sent a pair of text messages to its delegates at 8:40 p.m. asking them to "respect" Clinton's speech, which is set to take place within the next few hours. "On Monday, when Bernie gave his speech to the Democratic convention, Secretary Clinton's campaign asked her supporters to be respectful, and they were," the messages said.

Hillary Clinton has overcome many obstacles on her groundbreaking path to become the first woman presidential nominee for a major party, and sexism was certainly one of them, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker said Thursday night in an interview with Yahoo News. Chatting with Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric at the Democratic National Convention, Booker cited descriptions of Clinton's hard-charging personality as "shrill" among the subtle ways gender bias has been woven into the critiques against her over the years. "There's a different standard applied to women than is applied to men," Booker said in a live interview with Couric and Yahoo News National Political Columnist Matt Bai.
The FBI warned the Clinton campaign that it was a target of a cyberattack last March, just weeks before the Democratic National Committee discovered it had been penetrated by hackers it now believes were working for Russian intelligence, two sources who have been briefed on the matter told Yahoo News. In a meeting with senior officials at the campaign's Brooklyn headquarters, FBI agents laid out concerns that cyberhackers had used so-called spear-phishing emails as part of an attempt to penetrate the campaign's computers, the sources said. One of the sources said agents conducting a national security investigation asked the Clinton campaign to turn over internal computer logs as well as the personal email addresses of senior campaign officials.
On the night that Hillary Clinton accepted the Democratic nomination for president, her party featured two Republican speakers who talked about their intent to vote for Clinton this fall against Republican nominee Donald Trump. A former White House aide to Ronald Reagan, Doug Elmets, and a health policy worker at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Jennifer Pierotti Lim, both told the convention hall of Democrats and a primetime national TV audience why they're voting for Clinton. Elmets said it was "a shock" to be speaking at the Democratic convention, but argued that Trump falls so far short of what's required to be president that he felt duty bound to oppose him and support Clinton.
John Podesta, the chair of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, says he is not concerned about lingering divisions from the Democratic primary damaging her chances in the general election.

Rep. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., who lost her legs as an Army helicopter pilot in Iraq, delivered a pointed critique of Donald Trump on Thursday at the Democratic National Convention. The Democratic Senate candidate began her address by recounting the 2004 attack that wounded her. "Twelve years ago, I was co-piloting a Black Hawk helicopter over Iraq," she recalled.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Fees would increase by $4 to register a vehicle in the state under a compromise bill sent to Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
The increase would start in January 2009 and last four years, raising the cost to about $40 to register a personal vehicle.
The Senate approved the negotiated bill 24-10 Wednesday, followed a few minutes later by a 72-50 House vote.
The money from the increase would go to the Vehicle Modernization Fund to upgrade the state's system for registering vehicles and driver's licenses. Secretary of Revenue Joan Wagnon says the current system is about 20 years old and needs to be replaced to provide law enforcement with more information more quickly.

I didnt find it but is it possible to run at night all pages so the next morning the whole website is cached? Or are there other plugins who does this job? I hope someone can help me! Thanks!
closed as off-topic by birgire, Pieter Goosen, Johannes Pille, mrwweb, ialocin Sep 20 '14 at 12:20
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
Plugins such as WP Super Cache have a setting for that. It's called "pre-load", it allows you to pre-load pages and you can set an specific interval to regenerate cache.
If you publish at least 3 or 4 times a week a good configuration could be every 4000 minutes.

Honda S2000 RecallsReduced Braking Performance
The braking system uses an assist device called a brake booster. These vehicles use a brake booster that is operated by engine vacuum and in certain cases the booster may not be able to maintain a vacuum when the brake pedal is depressed. This will result in reduced braking assistance, requiring additional force on the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. Dealers will inspect the brake booster and replace it as necessary.
The side marker lamps and side reflex reflectors in the tail lamp assemblies are dyed the incorrect color. Dealers will replace affected tail lamp assemblies free of charge to resolve the problem.
The seat belt retractor can lock up due to deforming and binding. Dealers will replace the seat belt actuator assembly free of charge to resolve the concern.

This invention relates to data decoding, more particularly, to data decoding in a network environment.

Computers and computer networks are used to exchange information in many fields such as media, commerce and telecommunication. One form of information that is commonly exchanged is video data (or image data), i.e., data representing a digitized image or sequence of images. A video conferencing feed is an example of telecommunication information which includes video data. Other examples of video data include video streams or files associated with scanned images, digitized television performances, and animation sequences, or portions thereof, as well as other forms of visual information that are displayed on a display device. Video information may be synthesized by artificially rendering video data from two or three-dimensional computer models.
Another form of information that is commonly exchanged is audio data (i.e., data representing a digitized sound or sequence of sounds). Voice telephone transmissions and video conferencing feeds are examples of telecommunication information which include audio data. Other examples of audio data include audio streams or files associated with digitized music, radio and television performances, or portions thereof, though audio data may be associated with any type of sound waveform. It is also possible to synthesize sound waveforms by artificially generating audio data having desired magnitude and frequency characteristics.
The exchange of information between computers on a network can be described in terms of between a "transmitter" and a "receiver." In video applications, the information being exchanged contains video data and the services provided by the transmitter are associated with the processing and transmission of the video data. Similarly, in audio applications, the information being exchanged contains audio data and the services provided by the transmitter are associated with the processing and transmission of the audio data. Conventionally, multiple services provided by one or more transmitters may provide data using different protocols. The use of different protocols increases the complexity of the receivers because of the need to accommodate the various protocols. In addition, the amount of data associated with the applications may be very large. Thus, transmission of such large amounts of data over a network may cause bandwidth utilization concerns.
Receiver 110 may receive data over network connection 114 from network 108 under any of protocols A, B or C, as well as any other protocols used by other transmitters connected to network 108, or used by multiple services embodied within one of transmitters 102, 104 and 106. As such, receiver 110 needs to be equipped with different cards (i.e., specialized hardware for data processing) or software plug-ins to support each protocol. The need to accommodate different protocols increases the complexity of receiver 110 and necessitates hardware or software upgrades when new protocols are developed.
In a network architecture, where multiple receivers may receive data having different protocols from the network and where decoders are often specific to certain protocols, providing data decoding resources at each receiver to accommodate each type of protocol often requires multiple decoders which may be very expensive. Furthermore, the data decoding resources associated with a particular receiver may be under-utilized when a receiver (or desktop unit) is not in use.
In cases where data processing hardware is centralized, for example, at a server, adding hardware into a general purpose computer may be impractical because of the lack of physical space (e.g., slots) at the general purpose computer. In addition, centralization produces a single point of failure. For example, the server would not be available to users while decoding hardware is being inserted into the system or if the decoder fails.
In accordance with the present invention, method and apparatus for decoding data in various data formats on a network are provided. In one embodiment, specialized decoding resources that do not become part of the user's desktop computing resource and do not become part of the general purpose server are provided. In one embodiment, the specialized decoding resources have the ability to handle multiple data formats (e.g., protocols) and are extensible in accordance with the load.
In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a server and a bulk decoder are coupled to a network. The bulk decoder decodes data received from the network in accordance with commands from the server and transmits the decoded data to an interconnect. An output device coupled to the interconnect accepts the decoded data for display, archive, and other purposes.
In one embodiment, the bulk decoder includes a central processor being controlled by the server, a demultiplexer coupled to the central processor for demultiplexing data received, at least one decoder coupled to the demultiplexer for decoding the demultiplexed signal, and a multiplexer coupled to the decoder for multiplexing the decoded data. In one embodiment, the bulk decoder includes a processor that converts various data formats into one protocol prior to distribution to the output devices.
This summary is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, which is defined solely by the claims attached hereto.
While specific embodiments are described and illustrated herein, these embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the invention, which is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms.
Method and apparatus for decoding data in various data protocols in a network environment are provided. In accordance with the present invention, decoding resources do not become part of the user's desktop computing resource and do not become part of the general purpose server. Further, the decoding resource is capable of handling multiple data formats (e.g., protocols) and are extensible in accordance with load requirements.
One or more embodiments of the invention may be implemented in part by computer software in the form of computer readable code executed on a general purpose computer, in the form of bytecode class files executable within a Java™ runtime environment running on such a computer, or in the form of bytecodes running on a processor (or devices enabled to process bytecodes) existing in a distributed environment (e.g., one or more processor on a network). In general, any suitable computer system and programming/processing environment may be used.
In one embodiment, the present invention may be implemented in computer systems where the data is provided through a network such as a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), the internet, world wide web (Web), or any other suitable network configurations.
The functionality of the virtual desktop system is partitioned between a display and input device (the combination of which is referred to as a "human interface device" or an "HID"), and data sources or services. Specifically, state and computation functions typically reside in data sources/services 150 while input and display functions typically reside at the HID. Data sources/services are typically not tied to a specific computer and may be distributed over one or more traditional desktop systems or traditional servers. For example, one computer may have one or more services, or a service may be implemented by one or more computers. In general, services provide computation, state and data to the HIDs and services are typically controlled under a common authority or manager (e.g., service manager).
Services may be, but are not limited to Java™ program execution services, X11/Unix services, archived video services and Windows NT services. In general, a service is a process that provides output data and responds to user requests and input. For example, services may have the responsibility to handle communications with the HID that is currently being used. The communication may involve taking the output from the computational service and converting it into a standard protocol for the HID. This data protocol conversion may be handled by, e.g., a middleware layer, such as an X11 server, the Microsoft Windows interface, a video format transcoder, the OpenGL interface, or a variant of the java.awt.graphics class within the service producer machine.
The service machines, e.g., computer 152, 153, 154, 155 and 156, handle the translation to and from the virtual desktop architecture wire protocol. Computers 152, 153, 154, 155 and 156 may be service producing machines such as a proxy for another device providing the computational service (e.g., a database computer in a three tiered architecture, where the proxy computer might only generate queries and execute user interface code). Any of computers 152, 153, 154, 155 and 156 may be implemented as a transmitter. In one embodiment, computers 152, 153, 154, 155 and 156 connect directly to DTUs 170, 180 and 190 through interconnect fabric 160.
Interconnect fabric 160 may be any suitable communication paths for carrying data between services 150 and DTUs 170, 180, and 190. In one embodiment, interconnect fabric 160 is a local area network implemented as an Ethernet network. Other local network, wide area networks, the internet, the world wide web, and other types of communication path may also be utilized. Interconnect fabric 160 may be implemented with a physical medium such as a wire or fiber optic cable, or it may be implemented in a wireless environment.
DTUs 170, 180, and 190 are the means by which users access the computational services provided by the servers or services 150, and as such, DTUs 170, 180 and 190 may also be referred to as a client, user workstation, terminal or HID. Typically, a desktop unit includes a display, a keyboard, a mouse and audio speakers. For example, DTU 170 includes a display 171, a keyboard 174, a mouse 175, and audio speakers 172. In general, DTUs include the electronics needed to interface attached devices (e.g., display, keyboard, mouse and speakers) to interconnect fabric 160 and to transmit data to and receive data from the services 150.
Desktop units 170, 180 and 190 may be any suitable computer systems, including general purpose computers, client-server systems, or network computers. For example, desktop units 170, 180 and 190 may be workstations from, e.g., Sun Microsystems, Inc., IBM Corporation, Hewlett Packard, Digital and other manufacturers. Any of DTUs 170, 180 and 190 may be implemented as a receiver.
Keyboard 174 and mouse 175 introduce user input and communicate that user input with the DTU they are attached to. Other suitable input devices (e.g., scanner, digital camera) may be used in addition to, or in place of, keyboard 174 and mouse 175. Display 171 and audio speakers 172 are output devices. Other suitable output devices (e.g., printer) may be used in addition to, or in place of, display 171 and audio speakers 172.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) data communication is provided on path 224 to a USB controller 202 which is coupled to PCI bus 226.
An embedded processor 204 is coupled to PCI bus 226. Embedded processor 204 may be, for example, a Sparc2ep, which is coupled to a flash memory 206 and a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) 208. In the alternative, processor 204 may be a SPARC™ microprocessor manufactured by Sun Microsystems, Inc., a 680X0 processor manufactured by Motorola, a 80X86 manufactured by Intel, a Pentium processor, or any other suitable microprocessor or microcomputer.
A video controller, e.g., frame buffer controller 214, is also coupled to PCI) bus 226. Video controller 214 may be, for example, an ATI RagePro+ frame buffer controller (or any other suitable controller) that provides SVGA (Super Video Graphics Array) output on path 236. National TV Standards Committee (NTSC) or Phase Alternating Line (PAL) data may be provided via path 232 into the video controller 214 through video decoder 220. Similarly, NTSC or PAL data may be provided to path 234 from video controller 214 through a video encoder 222. A smart card interface 218 and an Synchronous Graphics Random Access Memory (SGRAM) 216 may also be coupled to video controller 214.
The functions described above for desktop units 170, 180 and 190 may be implemented using a single chip that includes necessary processing capabilities and graphic renderer.
Bi-directional system bus 253 may contain, for example, thirty-two address lines for addressing a video memory 256 or a main memory 257. System bus 253 may also includes, for example, a 32-bit data bus for transferring data between and among components, e.g., processor 254, main memory 256, video memory 256 and mass storage 258, all coupled to bus 253. Alternatively, multiplex data/address lines may be used instead of separate data and address lines.
Processor 254 may be a microprocessor manufactured by Motorola (e.g., 680X0 processor), a microprocessor manufactured by Intel (e.g., 80X86 or Pentium processor) or a SPARC microprocessor from Sun Microsystems, Inc. Other suitable microprocessor or microcomputer may be utilized.
Main memory 257 may comprise dynamic random access memory (DRAM) or other suitable memories. Video memory 256 may be a dual-ported video random access memory. For example, one port of video memory 256 may be coupled to a video amplifier 259 which is used to drive a monitor 260 which may be a cathode ray tube (CRT) raster monitor, a liquid crystal display (LCD), or any suitable monitors for displaying graphic images. Video amplifier 259 is well known in the art and may be implemented by any suitable apparatus. In one embodiment, pixel data stored in video memory 256 is converted to a raster signal suitable for use by monitor 260. Mass storage 258 may include both fixed and removable media, such as magnetic, optical or magnetic optical storage systems or any other available mass storage technology.
Computer 250 may include a communication interface 261 coupled to bi-directional system bus 253. Communication interface 261 provides a two-way data communication via a network link 262 to a local network 263. For example, if communication interface 261 is an integrated service digital network (ISDN) card or a modem, communication interface 261 provides a data communication connection to the corresponding type of telephone line, which comprises part of network link 262. If communication interface 261 is a local area network, (LAN) card, communication interface 261 provides a data communication connection via network link 262 to a compatible LAN. Wireless links are also possible. In any such implementation, communication interface 261 sends and receives electrical, electromagnetic or optical signals which carry digital data streams representing various types of information.
Network link 262 typically provides data communication through one or more networks to other data devices. For example, network link 262 may provide a connection through local network 263 to a host computer 264 or to data equipment operated by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) 265. ISP 265 in turn provides data communication services through the world wide packet data communication network commonly referred to as the "internet" 266. Local network 263 and internet 266 both use electrical, electromagnetic or optical signals which carry digital data streams. The signals through the various networks and the signals on network link 262 and through communication interface 261, which carry the digital data to and from computer 250, are exemplary forms of carrier waves transporting the information.
Computer 250 can send messages and receive data, including program code, through these communication channels. In the Internet example, server 267 might transmit a requested code for an application program through Internet 266, ISP 265, local network 263 and communication interface 261. The received code may be executed by processor 254 as the code is received, and/or stored in mass storage 258, or other non-volatile storage for later execution. In this manner, computer 250 may obtain application code in the form of a carrier wave.
Application code may be embodied in any form of computer program product. A computer program product comprises a medium configured to store or transport computer readable code or data, or in which computer readable code or data may be embedded. Some examples of computer program products are CD-ROM disks, ROM cards, floppy disks, magnetic tapes, computer hard drives, servers on a network, and carrier waves.
Central server 308 may receive data from a media archive 306 or a mass storage that is directly attached to central server 308. Media archive 306 or mass storage may be a part of central server 308. The media archive (or mass storage) may be a semi-permanent or a permanent holding place for data and may be, for example, magnetic disks, magnetic tapes or optical storage devices. If the data is in a form ready for output (e.g., in basic data format), central server 308 directs the data to appropriate devices for displaying or archiving via an interconnect 322. Interconnect 322 may use any suitable local area network technologies including, but is not limited to, ethernet, gigabit ethernet, switched ethernet, fast ethernet, and token ring. The connections between central server 308 and user displays 312, 314 and 316 and media archive 318 through interconnect 322 may be direct or switched.
If the data is encoded, central server 308 may direct the data to a bulk decoder 310 via network 320. Bulk decoder 310 may also receive encoded data from, e.g., a live data source 302 or a media archive 304, over network 320. Live data source 302 may transmit encoded data in various data formats such as video, audio, graphics, video conference or other media formats using different protocols. Bulk decoder 310 receives the encoded data from network 320 and decodes the encoded data by reversing the encoding process and placing the data in an appropriate format for playback. Bulk decoder 310 may be a hardware or a software device that decodes data and may be configured to have capabilities for processing various forms of encoding. In one embodiment, bulk decoder 310 may be an application-specific hardware. In another embodiment, bulk decoder 310 may be a general purpose computer.
In one embodiment of the present invention, bulk decoder 310 may be a stand-alone unit, meaning that bulk decoder 310 is not a function provided by central server 308. Bulk decoder 310 transmits the decoded data to an appropriate device such as a user display (e.g., user displays 312, 314 and 316) or a media archive (e.g., media archive 318) through interconnect 322. Media archive 318 may be the same unit as media archive 304 or media archive 306. Other output devices may also be used, for example, speakers.
Additional bulk decoders may be added to the network if additional decoding resources are needed. In other words, the number of bulk decoders may be scalable with respect to the decoding capacity and capability requirements of the system and the decoding capacity and capability of each bulk decoders. As will be described later, each bulk decoder may be configured to accommodate different types of decoders for various data formats. Each bulk decoder may also be configured to handle different load requirements.
In one embodiment, bulk decoder 310 may be modular to enable plug-and-play. For example, if bulk decoder 310 cannot meet the load requirements, another bulk decoder may be added (e.g., plugged in) to expand the decoding capability of the system. The plug-and-play of additional bulk decoders may be accomplished without disturbing the ongoing operation of the existing decoders because networks are generally more serviceable than, e.g., computer peripheral busses. Therefore, as new load is realized, additional decoding resources may be added to expand the decoding capacity with minimal disturbance to the system.
Central processor 332 directs demultiplexer 334 to convert data transmissions that contain several intermixed signals into its original separate signals. The demultiplexed signals are transmitted to appropriate decoders 336, 338 and 340 for decoding. For example, decoder 336 may be capable of decoding Moving Pictures Experts Group (MPEG) signals; decoder 338 may be capable of decoding Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) signals; and decoder 340 may be capable of decoding H.261 signals. The number and types of decoders depends on the data format of the signals the bulk decoder needs to process and the load it needs to handle. In some embodiments, bulk decoder may include eight to ten decoders.
The decoded signals are multiplexed by multiplexer 342 which combines multiple signals and transmits the combined signals over a single communications line or computer channel such as interconnect 322 (
Bulk decoder 310 may include a central processor 332 coupled to a demultiplexer 334 and a multiplexer 342 as described above. Central processor 332 receives command from central server 308 and then directs demultiplexer 334 to convert data transmissions that contain several intermixed signals into its original separate signals, e.g., video signals and audio signals. The video signals may contain video data in various formats. The video data may be transmitted to a video processor 352 which converts the video data into a single designated protocol. Each desktop unit (user) may be equipped or configured to understand the designated video protocol. Since the various data formats have been decoded and converted into one protocol, each desktop unit may display the data regardless of its original format.
Similarly, a specialized audio processor 354 may be placed between the network and the interconnect to convert audio data into a single audio protocol. Transmitters (e.g., servers) may be equipped with drivers to provide for conversion of audio data into the designated protocol as needed. Each user may be configured to understand the designated audio protocol. As a result, each user may play the audio data regardless of the data's original format and without having to employ multiple decoders at each client site. In other words, the data may be decoded once and converted into a protocol all clients can understand using one set of decoders (the network shared decoders). Therefore, the decoders do not need to be duplicated for each client.
Other types of decoders such as graphics decoders may be added to the bulk decoder. In general, bulk decoder 310 may contain a predetermined number and predetermined types of decoders. Multiplexer 342 then multiplexes the various signals (e.g., audio and the video signals) for transmission to various output devices through an interconnect.
While the present invention has been described with reference to particular figures and embodiments, it should be understood that the description is for illustration only and should not be taken as limiting the scope of the invention. Many changes and modifications may be made to the invention, by one having ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, encoded data may be presented on the interconnect or virtual networks to minimize the number of network connections provided by the hardware.

Two correctional officers were in the hospital Thursday with stab wounds after they were attacked the night before by inmates at the Corrections Corporation of America Leavenworth Detention Center, according to a spokeswoman for the facility.
Three inmates were placed in segregation following the incident. The center remained under lockdown Thursday as the investigation continued.
The Leavenworth Detention Center houses inmates awaiting federal trial under a contract with the U.S. Marshals Service.
Connie Parish, spokeswoman for the center, said two simultaneous attacks occurred at about 10:15 p.m. Wednesday in a day room in the facility's E Pod, which is a high security area for male inmates.
Parish said the attacks were over in a matter of seconds. Additional officers responded to the area. The center's special operations response team was activated.
Parish said the incident was contained to the pod.
The lockdown was initiated immediately.
The two male officers were hospitalized in the Kansas City area. One of the officers had been airlifted from a local hospital, Parish said.
She said both men appeared to be doing well Thursday.
"And we're so grateful," she said.
Parish said she doesn't know how many people were in the day room at the time of the attacks.
Two of the three inmates who were placed in segregation are suspected of carrying out the attacks. The third is their cellmate, according to Parish.
"We don't know if he's involved or not," she said.
Parish said weapons used in the attacks had not been located.
Parish said she did not know the motive for attacks.
She said the Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office was contacted to assist with the investigation.
"They're preparing evidence to turn over to the county attorney," she said.

Pokémon/Moves Type Changes
Based on what I feel suits them better. For reference, Fairy will take Psychic's place as the "magic/mystical" type.
Gen I
- Bulbasaur/Oddish: Grass. Don't look/act like Poison types, learn just 1-3 Poison moves, bulb/leaves are nontoxic.
- Mega Blastoise: Water/Steel. Suits tank design.
- Psyduck/Golduck: Water/Psychic. 'Nuff said.
- Geodude/Graveler/Golem: Rock. No reported subterranean activity of any kind. They live on mountains. That's it.
- Seel: Water/Ice. Really no reason Dewgong is and Seel isn't. Both are based on arctic seals.
- Cloyster: Water. Absolutely no reason for it be Ice.
- Gengar: Ghost/Dark. Body is no longer made of poison gas. A shadow with nefarious intentions.
- Mega Gengar: Ghost/Psychic. Third eye sees into other dimensions.
- Rhyhorn: Rock. Ground activity is Rhydon-exclusive.
- Rhydon: Rock/Ground. Being Ground/Rock is just wrong.
- Starmie: Water/Fairy. No psychic/mental powers to speak of. Cosmic/mystical attributes suit Fairy.
- Jynx: Fairy/Ice: No psychic powers. Behaves much like the Fairy type.
- Gyarados: Water/Dragon. 'Nuff said.
- Porygon/2/Z: Electric. What do you think data is..?
Gen II
- Azurill/Marill/Azumarill: Water. Azurill can swim and learns mostly Water moves. None have Fairy attributes.
- Hoppip: Grass. Cannot control itself in midair.
- Wynaut/Wobbuffet: Normal. Learns mostly Normal moves. No Psychic attributes.
- Girafarig: Psychic/Dark. Learns many Dark moves, dangerous-looking tail, more dichotomous than Normal/Psychic.
- Dunsparce: Normal/Ground: Diverse moveset but Ground attributes.
- Gligar/Gliscor: Poison/Flying: Poisonous. Fly. Don't dig. Based on scorpions, bats, and vampires. Poison/Flying.
- Stantler: Normal/Psychic. Illusions, hypnosis, but still Normal attributes.
- Smoochum: Fairy. Lives in cities instead of icy mountains. Not based on Yuki-onna like Jynx.
- Suicune: Water/Flying. Breaks the trio order, but too many wind connections to ignore.
- Pupitar: Rock. No Ground properties. Suits the transition to…
- Tyranitar: Rock/Dragon: It's Godzilla. Made of rock.
- Mega Tyranitar: Dark/Dragon. Evil appearance. Could be a corrupted form that quote, "seethes with energy and emanates power."
- Lugia: Water/Flying. I mean come on.
- Celebi: Fairy/Grass. Literally.
Gen III
- Shroomish: Grass/Poison: Even says "My poison powders turned more toxic!" in Mystery Dungeon.
- Mega/Sableye: Dark. No basis for Ghost besides a legend about the Pokémon itself.
- Trapinch: Ground/Bug. Bug origin, several Bug moves, etc.
- Lunatone: Rock/Fairy. Moon powers are associated with Fairy. Mystic connection.
- Solrock: Rock/Fire. Heat. Sun. Light.
- Milotic: Water/Dragon. Origin, moves, appearance.
- Castform: Flying. Air/wind abilities. Floats. Is a cloud.
- Mega Banette: Ghost/Dark. "Baleful power" is unleashed.
- Chingling/Chimecho: Normal. No Psychic powers whatsoever. More proof that Sound type needs to exist.
- Glalie: Rock/Ice. Body made of rock.
- Luvdisc: Water/Fairy. Fairy is pretty much the emotion type.
- Beldum: Steel. Barely thinks for itself. Computer-like mind comes with evolution.
- Latias: Dragon/Fairy. Half-Psychic Latios can create illusions, Latias is emotionally sensitive. Both types suit their origins.
- Jirachi: Fairy. Grants wishes "if you sing to it in a voice of purity." Is in tune with human desires. Steel typing is absurd.

KARACHI, Pakistan (AP) -- Pakistan's tiny and downtrodden Christian community is demonstrating its resilience with the establishment of a megachurch in Karachi.
The domed, three-story building towers over the sprawling slum it serves and is the largest yet in the violent, Muslim country.
St. Peter's of Karachi opened its doors this month and can fit around 5,000 people. It thrives despite state discrimination against Christians and attacks by extremists allied with al-Qaida and the Taliban. The church took 11 months to build and cost $3.8 million. The donations came from locals and Roman Catholics around the world.
Pakistani towns and cities are dotted with striking churches dating back to the 19th century, when the subcontinent was ruled by Britain. Newer churches do get built, especially by Protestant and evangelical groups, but are smaller, single-room affairs.
Pakistani Christians tend to live in extreme poverty. Most are the descendants of low-caste, "untouchable" Hindus, who converted to Christianity when the region was under British colonial rule. Today, many still do the same work as their ancestors: street sweeping, domestic service or other menial jobs.
The head of the church, Father Saleh Diego, says the persecution Pakistani Christians face is accepted as part of their faith walk.
