Yahoo's Fire Eagle Could Be Ad Platform
The company's geo-location platform has clear implications for advertisers since ads can be targeted to user locations.
The company's geo-location platform has clear implications for advertisers since ads can be targeted to user locations.
This week Yahoo took Fire Eagle out of beta. Fire Eagle is a geo-location platform with social, business — and advertising — implications.
"Fire Eagle is a simple service, a place where you can store information about your location. You can share that location with any service in the world," Tom Coates, Yahoo's Brickhouse division head of products told ClickZ. Brickhouse is Yahoo's "idea incubator," a division created last year to foster innovation within the company.
Internet and mobile users who sign up for Fire Eagle can set their location so their search results and other Web applications are more relevant. Users have the ability to set levels so that others, a business or colleague for instance, can see what exact location or neighborhood a person is in.
There are clear implications for advertisers since ads can be targeted to a user location. Retailers and restaurants could send dynamic ad creative about nearby locations, for example. But don't expect that to be available just yet.
"Advertising possibilities are endless and significant," said Coates. "At the moment we are focusing on development of the platform. We have so many possibilities that our priority is to make sure that happens. Everyone in the ecosystem benefits the larger it gets."
That's not to say some of the applications using the Fire Eagle API aren't also serving ads against the location where they find you.
In beta and now in general availability, Fire Eagle is being used by apps including Lightpole, a mobile application provider; brightkite a beta-stage social networking application; and Outside.in, a localized news source.
Fire Eagle was designed for practical reasons. Coates explained, "The premise is very simple. What interesting services could you make if you had access to location information?"
Mobile developer Lightpole, which focuses on location-based applications, worked with Fire Eagle through the beta period. "Every one of our content providers benefits from the fact that we're doing Fire Eagle location, because consumers set their location easily, or rely on the fact that they set their location once and use it anywhere," said Marcus Colombano, VP of marketing at Lightpole.
The company's content providers include Yelp, Yahoo Local, Paper Magazine, Serious Eats, the Gothamist, Mappy Hour, and HotSpotr.
Advertising can become more relevant in a pull platform in which ads can match content consumers are searching for. "When you accurately know where somebody is, you can more accurately apply content and advertising to a situation. And that advertising becomes more relevant, and that moves away from being advertising, becomes more relevant to what the user is interested in and what they might do," said Colombano.
While there are practical reasons why location information is useful, another piece is very important: privacy. Users are able to set their location level to private, semi-private, or shared. "You can control your level of privacy; you can change that level of privacy to the neighborhood, exact location, or hide yourself. Information still comes to Fire Eagle, but none of it goes out anywhere," Coates said.
The most practical application for the PC might be local search. Users don't have to bother with parameters when looking for a restaurant or local business, since that information is already in there.
For mobile devices, it's as simple as walking down the street. Users will find their locations on the map instantly, and can seek out a store or place to eat nearby. Coates suggested that even applications such as Facebook and news sites could pull up local and relevant content based on user proximity.

Women seek out butt exercises mainly because most women today aren't happy with the size or shape of their butt.
Are you?
A lot of women consider their butt to be too petite, or too large, or too shapeless, or too floppy, etc. The best butt toning exercises need to be very specific and will make a tremendous difference in your butt and help you get the sexy visual appearance you long for.
One important thing to remember is that butt toning exercises alone will not get rid of body fat.
You need to incorporate a complete exercise and nutrition plan into your daily routine.
Each body type responds differently to different butt exercises.
Your genetics also play a partial role in how your body responds to exercises for your butt and it is important to understand that, while you can firm up your butt, you can't always change the shape, regardless if you perform the best butt exercises or not.
For all of the exercises listed here, and any other exercise for that matter, form is critical.
You must always ensure that you use a controlled motion when performing any exercises for your butt otherwise you could put strain on your knees and cause injury.
Try to tighten up your abdominal and back muscles to stabilize your body. Never swing or use momentum to get the weights up and, if you feel any pain, stop!
It is easy and doesn't take much time when you use the best butt exercises.
Squats are by far the best out of all the butt toning exercises you can do. Unfortunately exercises like the squat are often taught incorrectly, and it's stigmatized as difficult and dangerous.
People often warn that exercises like the squat are bad for your knees and back, inappropriate for women, too hard to learn, etc. But this is totally and completely false. There is no better exercise for your butt.
Butt toning exercises like squats will not bulk up your butt! In fact it's been proven for decades that exercises for your butt, especially squats will help women shape, firm and tone their butt!
A proven fact!
Don't make the same mistake as many women do by placing the bar too high or resting it on the base of your neck.
Do not allow your weight to tip forward on to the toes. Be careful and don't lean forward or curve your back. This will stress your back and decrease the effectiveness of the exercise.
Do not twist. If your knees cave in while lifting your body up, think about pushing them outwards as you come up. Your chest comes up first, followed by your hips.
As with all exercises, different people will progress at different rates, but it's wise to always start with no weight at all, using only bodyweight for resistance. The first few times you try any butt exercises you will very likely experience stiffness and/or soreness in your butt and legs for the next day or so.
This is a very good exercise for working your butt, quads, inner and outer thighs and hamstrings. You can perform it in either a stationary position, or you can walk across a large area in a straight line.
Complete a full set, then switch legs and repeat. Or you can switch legs and move forward across the floor with each repetition.
When performing this one you should try and pay close attention to the angle formed by your thigh and lower leg. Your knee should be directly over your ankle. Don't let your knee stray over your toes.
Your knee and toes should be pointed in the same direction.
Butt toning exercises like this one can also be done on a smith machine or with a barbell.
Lunges are essential to having a firm and sexy butt.
This exercise will work your hamstrings, butt and lower back. Grab onto a barbell with both hands using an overhand grip, stand up straight with your hands and feet shoulder width apart.
Be careful and try not to hunch your back or lean backwards as this can increase your risk of back injury. Keep your back fairly straight throughout the exercise.
Looking straight ahead of you will help you keep your back straight.
Again to repeat: Butt exercises like this one and in fact all other butt exercises require good controlled form!
For leg curls, you can use either a seated or lying down hamstring machine.
This exercise helps develop the hamstrings, which are very important for having a nice butt and developing muscles used with other butt exercises.
Concentrate on using a full range of motion.
For the most part wall squats work primarily the same muscles as the traditional barbell squats do. It helps to increase leg muscle strength and create an isometric contraction on your erector spinae to help strengthen your back.
It's also a great exercise for stabilizing the knee joints and the trunk.
This is an excellent exercise for your lower back, butt and hamstrings.
Butt toning exercises such as this are preferred over lower back machines because there is far less compressive forces on the spine.
After a few workouts, when the exercise becomes easier, hold a weight plate across your chest to increase resistance.
Do not, however, place any weight on your head or neck or this could result in injury.
Place your feet shoulder width apart, about two feet out from the wall and lean your back against the wall.
The butt exercises noted here are by far the best butt exercises you can do for firming, toning and shaping your butt.
Butt Toning Exercises That Work...The Ultimate Leg, Butt, Hip, Thigh Makeover
To have a perfectly round and hard-shaped butt you need to do specific butt toning exercises, be consistent with your butt toning exercises, and maintain proper eating habits.

BRITAIN really has Got Talent – as these rising stars prove.
The semi-finals are done and dusted with two more acts winning a place in the final and that's not all – a 'wildcard' will be joining them. Here's everything we know about tonight's final.
Who are the Britain's Got Talent 2017 finalists?
David Walliams' golden buzzer act Kyle Tomlinson wowed the crowd, the judges, and the viewers at home with his passionate rendition of Adele's When We Were Young in the first live semi-final. The judges had predicted he would go far, and he proved them right by winning himself the first place in the finals on the audience vote.
Magic act DNA also went through after an amazing act that saw them use the "power of persuasion" to have Simon Cowell find a word in the dictionary that David Walliams had secretly written down.
Following the second semi-final, Issy Simpson – the 8 year old magician went through after she read Simon's mind.
She is joined by Matt Edwards – Ant and Dec's golden buzzer act who is a comedian and magician who's "as funny as Lee Evans".
Wednesday saw the third semi-final and Tokio Myers, the Charming musician who fused classical with modern for a powerful piano set and cheeky eight year old comedian Ned Woodman go through.
The fourth semi-final took place on Thursday night and the acts making it through to the final are Merseygirls – Alesha's golden buzzer act and dance group who originally auditioned as Just Us.
Joining them in the final will be The Pensionalities – OAPs Henry, 84, and Malcolm, 75, warmed the audience when they auditioned in Blackpool singing a short duet. During the fifth semi-final Missing People Choir almost had David Walliams in tears with their beautifula nd mush improved singing voices, which didn't go unnoticed by Simon and secured them a place in the final. Joining them is comedian and Amanda Holden's golden buzzer act, Daliso Chaponda – he was praised by Simon for pushing the boundaries and not worrying about being politically correct
The ten acts will be joined by a surprise 'wildcard'. The judges will pick an eleventh act from the axed semi-finalists to go through to the BGT final.
It will take place on TONIGHT June 3, instead of Sunday due to Ariana Grande's Manchester Attack tribute concert.
Who are the Britain's Got Talent 2017 semi-finalists?
Audiences are spoiled for choice in the live semi-finals jam packed with a variety of talents.
Even those who didn't make it through astonished judges with their funny, entertaining or just downright amazing acts.
Here's a reminder of what went down in the semi-finals so far – as well as what's still to come from acts who haven't performed yet.
First semi-final
These acts didn't make it through after the first semi-final, but are still worth keeping an eye out for as they continue to entertain across the UK.
Empire Dance Crew – Sassy and energetic dance crew hoping to become the best in the UK.
Miss Treat Vibe – Girl group who came third in the public vote, but could be back in the final as a 'wild card' act.
Niels Harder – Magician from the Netherlands whose first routine saw him threaten to behead Ant.
PC Daniel Graham – Dancing policeman whose entertaining semi-final routine about putting aside our differences didn't quite capture audiences.
St Patrick's Junior Choir Drumgreenagh – Irish primary school choir accused of miming during the semi-final, who did not win a place in the final.
Tyrone and Mina – "Dangerously seductive" knife-throwing and tangoing duo and real life couple.
Second semi-final
These acts didn't make it through to the next stage of the competition:
Destiny Chukunyere – Maltese former Junior Eurovision winner who's hoping her powerful vocals will impress Simon Cowell again.
Dizzy Twilight – Retired nurse and grandmother turned DJ who surprised judges with her amazing skills.
Grace and Ali – 16-17 year old dance partners who are also a couple.
Harry Gardner – Stole hearts and had the judges in tears with beautiful tribute song to his nan.
Leah Barniville – Classically trained teen singer who's hoping she'll hit all the right notes in opera, and in Italian.
Taptastik – Brighton-based tap dance troupe with members aged 16-62.
Third semi-final
Acts that saw their competition end were:
David Geaney – Winner of five dance World Championships hoping to add BGT to his titles.
Jay Wynn – Sings and dances to Aha's Take On Me while dressed in a 10ft robot costume.
Josephine Lee – Impressive illusionist who wants to use BGT to encourage more women to perform magic.
London School of Bollywood – Students and professional dancers who are passionate about the magic of Bollywood.
Martin and Faye – Father and daughter duo who prove talent can run in the family.
Sarah Ikumu – 16 year old soul singer who bagged Simon Cowell's golden buzzer after a spine-tingling performance of And I Am Telling You.
Fourth semi-final
Not making it through to the final were;
Angelicus Celtis – Welsh schoolgirl choir who performed Nessun Dorma in their first audition.
John Parnell – Hilarious hula-hooping act who had Simon and Alesha on stage with him.
Jonny Awsum – Comedian who brought Ant and Dec into his musical theatre themed routine.
Paws With Soul – Dance group with animal masks.
Reuben Gray – 16 year old singer who wowed with original song Lifeline.
Ryan Tracey – Won a Guinness World Record for "fastest time to model five balloon structures blindfolded" in his first audition.
Fifth semi-final
Missing out on a place in the final were;
Code 3 – Three young dancers from Kent who want to bring "girl power" to the BGT stage.
Jamie Lee Harrison – Singer who won four yeses with R.E.M. classic Everybody Hurts.
Jess Robinson – Impressionist who does Cheryl Tweedy, Sharon Osbourne and Shirley Bassey, to a tee.
Lords of Strut – Comedy dance duo whose 80s-inspired routine had the judges in stitches.
Perfect Pitch Creation – Derbyshire-based choir of children age 8-14.
TNG Characters – Dance troupe who freaked the audience out with creepy clown costumes but impressed with tight choreography.
When is the BGT final?
The grand final will take place TONIGHT at 7.30pm on ITV.
In a break from tradition there will be a twist this year. The judges will pick one act that was axed in the semi-finals to join the finalists.
This is expected to be announced sometime before the start of tonight's final show. We're keeping our eyes peeled!

There are a couple of blogs that I follow that are giving away some pretty great giveaways that I just had to share.
There's Linda at Stray Stitches. She is giving away a pattern of a gorgeous quilt and some BEAUTIFUL fabric for the quilt. :) She's celebrating a milestone of having 300 followers and starting off her New Year with a bang...or is it ending this year with a bang? :)
And Vicki at The Pickledish Patch is giving away a VERY nice group of things. There's a crocheted sachet of lavender, some coasters, an embroidered hanger, some fabric, thread snips....etc. :) It's a VERY nice bundling. This is to celebrate her blogs name change. It was Tozz's Corner.
Look around on both of these blogs. Linda makes some of the cleanest and prettiest hexi flowers I've ever seen among her quilts and Vicki makes all sorts of things, such as aprons, bags, wristlets, quilts, etc.

INT: Wong Kar Wai
One of the beauties of the Cannes Film Festival is the opportunity to interview talented artists at private oceanfront beach clubs. Director Wong Kar Wai and the star of MY BLUEBERRY NIGHTS Norah Jones (read my review of the film HERE), sat with a select few press folks to talk about the challenges of making their much buzzed about flick at the film festival. Both were incredibly sweet and gracious as they spoke about their individual and collaborative experiences. It was quite apparent that there was a deep mutual admiration and respect between the director and first time actor. Check out what they had to say below...
Kar Wai
How did this film come about?
It all begins with Norah Jones because I wanted to work with her. Then we decided we couldnt do it in Chinese so we would do it in English and in NYC where she lives. Working in a different city with a different language gave me the consistence and I thought it could be challenging.
How did you choose your
location and why did you shoot in
I like
What was the biggest challenge for you?
I wanted to make sure that MY BLUEBERRY NIGHTS is not a
Chinese version of
What was the challenge in working with Norah Jones as a first time actress?
To break for lunch on time. Its been easy to work with Norah because in a way shes confident. It was very enjoyable working on Norahs growth from a newcomer into an actress. The thing is that she has to keep herself at a certain weight and I always work very long hours and food for her is very important. So, I had to break for lunch on time to make sure she eats and gets her energy.
Were you very hands on with the actors or did you give them creative freedom?
This journey [of acting] is a concept but it was Norah and Jude [Law] to meet them is a curse because I have to borrow something from them from their own characters and they have to put in all this detail. So, in a way Im just watching them and they deliver and contribute to these characters.
You have a longstanding association with Chris Doyle. Is there any reason you didnt use him in this film?
He was busy shooting LADY IN THE WATER or something and we had to schedule with Norah because she had to work on her album the week after shooting.
You said yesterday at the press conference that when you hear Norah Jones voice, even without seeing her, it tells a story. Can you elaborate?
Well the first thing that stuck with me was imagining her standing on the corner of the street and looking up seeing her boyfriend with another girl. Somehow, when I hear her voice it gives me that picture. Its the starting point of the film.
How long did it take to shoot the famous kissing scene?
It took one day. There were two kisses and in a way, my line producer said the film is about the second kiss. She travels all the way to get the second kiss, we shot it in 2 scenes, and each one took a full day. In a way it looks simple it was a very technical thing. Its like a stolen kiss and Jude had to pop up his whole body on the counter because his face had to be 90 degrees on the counter. They asked if we can just make it shorter and I said, no, people will expect the touch of the lips and we have to make this moment prolong and delay this moment as long as possible. By the time they are finally kissing each other its an evolution.
You have a unique style of filming. Is there someone you model yourself after?
Maybe my style is too romantic. People asked why I shot this film in NY through glass, why was it so tight and it is really for practical reasons because the place was so small and we didnt have a lot of money to have extras. So I wanted to shoot it this way so even when we only have 2 people in this diner, it still seems like a lot of people. Its also sometimes a technical thing.
Can you talk about the writing process?
Normally when I work on a Chinese film, I write the script myself. This time I had to work with a writer, which was Larry Block because I admire his work and I like his style. So the way I worked was that I wrote down great details about this story and then I asked to write a shooting script and used that to start working on the film and I asked him to improvise during the shooting.
What are you working on next?
I have a couple of projects but nothing definite, yet.
What was it like for you to transition from singing to acting?
The biggest challenge was that I never acted before or did a movie before but my nerves were a big challenge and sort of letting myself be in the moment and be confident.
Did the other actors help you?
So much, the entire crew and all the actors made me able to do this by being cool and nice, be open, and make me feel comfortable. Especially Kar Wai, he would come up to me between takes and pats me on the back and say whatever he had to say. Any direction he ever gave me was very sweet and it was good for me. I needed that. He had the confidence in me that I didnt even have because I obviously didnt know what he had in mind. I had never acted so he instilled it in me by being so confident. I trusted him because I thought he was a great filmmaker so we had this weird faith in each other that made it happen.
Did Kar Wai approach you to do this film?
Yeah, he approached me and I had never heard of him before so I watched IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE and I thought it was amazing. I was on break from the music industry. I needed a long break; a year or two from tours so I thought it was a good time and opportunity to try something new. So when I met with him he asked if I wanted to do it and I did.
Kar Wais films are famous for the way they shape women. Did it make you nervous when you saw IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE?
Oh no, it made me excited. I was hoping he would help me out in that department. If youre going to be directed or be in a film as a woman, thats the director you want to have around.
What was it like working with Rachel Weisz?
She was really wonderful and nice. I just really enjoyed watching everyone and I got to work with all these amazing actors one on one. It was a great lesson. I learnt so much in working with each one of them. Rachel especially had a very limited amount of time and she came in and just nailed it. That was hard because she kept being bit by mosquitoes during takes.
How many times did you have to kiss Jude Law and how was that for you?
Actually, my neck was in a cramp but it was fine. It was interesting because it was the most choreographed and most important scene technically to shoot. We spent 3 days on that scene and not more than half a day on any other scene so obviously it was very important for the director. We kissed like 95 times.
Were you guys really eating the pies?
I was yeah. I was able to spit it out sometimes but I even had 3 slices one night. I didnt really like pies before but now I really like it. I even have a thing for blueberries now.
Would you like to act again?
No, I would love to, I really enjoyed it and would love to have that experience again, but I also dont have to. Im fulfilled. What a cool experience I had and I dont think I would do it again but I mean I would if it was the right situation just like this one. It just kind of happened and it made sense but if something cool came along that made sense then I would try it.
It seemed as though your acting progressed with the evolvement of your character in the film. Could you talk about that?
I think it was really interesting and it was crazy for me to watch it and realize. I had a feeling we did most of the early scenes in the movie in an early shoot and I was totally inexperience and was terrified but it kind of worked for the character actually. I think the director did that on purpose actually. There definitely was a lot of parallels between my characters journey and in my journey making my first film as an actress. I became much more comfortable and I think it worked because my character wasnt comfortable with anything. In the beginning, she is freaked out and doesnt know whats going on. By the end she has really grown up. I think that is why she took the trip in the first place, to figure things out, and thats what happened.
Did you get to see yourself on film?
I watched a few playbacks but I thought it might make me too nervous having been new at this so I trusted Kar Wai once again.
Were you surprised with the final piece at the premiere last night?
I was amazed at how large and terrified my face was but I would like to watch it again.

The Calaveras County District Attorney's Office has upgraded a felony driving under the influence charge against a nationally known human resources consultant.
Beth De Lima was charged with felony DUI with injuries last March. It was announced in court Friday that the DA has added felony DUI with great bodily injury.
De Lima was charged in connection with a collision in which her 2012 Audi hit a 2015 Dodge driven by Bret Harte High School Assistant Principal Heath Lane on Murphys Grade Road. Lane was the baseball coach and athletic director before going into administration.
De Lima is president of HRM Consulting, based in Murphys.
California Highway Patrol reports state that De Lima crossed into Lane's path near Fairview Park Court.
Lane suffered major injuries and De Lima minor injuries, and both were airlifted to Modesto for treatment, the CHP stated.
De Lima appeared in court on Friday with a brace on her arm. She walked haltingly to the front when her case was called.
Her attorney, Ken Foley, asked the court to delay her preliminary hearing, which was scheduled for Friday afternoon, because he is considering filing a motion to object to the charge enhancement.
Judge Donald C. Boyack agreed. A hearing on the objection was scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Nov. 3 in Department 1 of the Calaveras County Superior Court.

Here is the jogging map from the Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay! I reviewed the fitness center and pool at the hotel here.
I generally adore the jogging maps at Hyatt hotels. However, I was disappointed by this map. Among other things, it was not easy to follow the directions for the course, and the distance of the suggested route was only 1.8 miles, without any options for longer runs. Moreover, part of the suggested course was on a running path: although I really like running paths, when I did go out for a jog in Tampa, it was already mid-day and did not feel comfortable being the only person on the path.
Also, maybe it's just me, but do you think that the diagram drawn on the jogging map looks kind of kinky? erotic? What do you see? I'm kind of frightened to stare at it for fear of going blind ….. (yes, I'm joking).
If you'd like to look at the jogging map in PDF format, go here.
All in all, I'm not saying that the jogging map is awful, but I do feel that it is not up to the standard of excellence that I've seen with other Hyatt jogging maps.

8 Refreshingly New Ideas In "Star Wars: The Force Awakens"
Judging by those box office numbers, it's safe to say that nearly everyone has seen "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" — some, most likely most, more than once. The film is connecting with audiences in a way that many, many films do not; on top of that, the film has received rapturous applause from audiences and critics alike. There's something truly magical about "The Force Awakens" and the phenomenon it's become feels similar to another one — 1977's "Star Wars."
George Lucas Talks "Star Wars: The Force Awakens": 'They Wanted to Do a Retro Movie'
Of course that's not the only comparison being made between "The Force Awakens" and "A New Hope." Arguably the most persistent critique lobbed at Episode VII is that it features numerous elements that echo the previous "Star Wars" films. The desert planet, the out-of-their-depth Force-sensitive protagonist, cute droids carrying essential information and a planet-destroying super weapon that can only be stopped via a trench run and torpedoes.
While "The Force Awakens" does feature numerous plot elements previously seen in "Star Wars" movies, it remixes them and re-prioritizes those elements while mashing them up with ideas that are completely new. Instead of focusing on what "The Force Awakens" borrows, here are some ideas that it tweaked, enhanced or totally invented for the latest installment in the saga. Of course, major spoilers are ahead.
Rey: The Scavenger Jedi
As the lead of a new Star Wars film (and potentially the lead of an entire trilogy), Rey has become possibly the most analyzed character in "The Force Awakens." Rey's a lot of things that we've seen before: a pilot, a potential Jedi and a hero from a low-class background.
But unlike previous protagonists, Rey's all of those things in one, with the "Jedi" bit being the most intriguing twist. The Jedi we've met in previous movies are all either super confident (most of the Knights and Masters in the prequels) or defined by their association with the Force (the Jedi in the original trilogy). Unlike Luke Skywalker, who rose from farmboy to apprentice quickly, we spend much more time living with Rey's scavenging profession and her hesitancy.
And that hesitancy speaks to one of Rey's most unique — and original — traits: her fallibility. She proves herself to be an ace pilot (like leads Luke and Anakin before her), but she's also much more resistant to leaving Jakku than either of her predecessors were when faced with leaving Tatooine. She's a lead that's a bit gullible (she believes Finn's lie about being in the Resistance with no questions asked), a bit over-excitable, and — yes — capable of making mistakes. She's bested by Kylo Ren twice with just a wave of his hand and her tech wizardry doesn't prevent her from accidentally unleashing rathtars on Han's ship.
But most unique of all, Rey does not bear the weight of representing all women in the "Star Wars" movies. This immediately makes her unique from Leia and Padme, who had the unenviable task of being the sole female lead in films mostly populated by men. Maz Kanata brings the wisdom, General Leia brings the gravitas and Captain Phasma brings the intimidation. Because of this representation, Rey doesn't have to be everything; she can show fear because Phasma is fearless, she gets to be filled with doubt because Maz is so certain, and she gets to be inexperienced because Leia's done so much.
Imperial Inner Workings
While the Empire posed the definitive threat of the original trilogy, we saw shockingly little of their inner workings. In three films, only Grand Moff Tarkin, Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine were given real screentime and meaty dialogue. Between Kylo Ren, General Hux, Captain Phasma, Supreme Leader Snoke and FN-2187 (or Finn), we see so much more of the workings of the Empires's follow-up, the First Order. We see an actual Stormtrooper commander and learn that these new grunts are "recruited" from their families at birth; we also learn that Stormtroopers have no name beyond a number. We spend more time in a TIE fighter cockpit than ever before, see Stormtroopers casually strolling through hallways and bear witness to a First Order, uh, pep talk on Starkiller Base.
The maneuvering and bickering between Kylo Ren and General Hux does echo the begrudging alliance between Vader and Tarkin, but "The Force Awakens" goes a step further by showing how they relate to the man in charge of both of them: Snoke. We never saw Tarkin talk to Palpatine.
And let's not undersell how completely new Finn is as a character. The cartoons have shown us plenty of unmasked clonetroopers, but Stormtroopers have remained a mystery since they first appeared almost 40 years ago. Finn's role forces us to put a real face underneath the helmets of characters previously treated as cannon fodder. Finn's inclusion and defection forces viewers to look at Stormtroopers in a whole new way.
Kylo Ren's Conflict
Kylo Ren is not Darth Vader, and that's a statement that can be made both inside and outside of the film. Outside the story, Kylo Ren is a villain that's depicted as temperamental, tortured and impatient. He's reckless and immature in a way that Vader never was after he put on his mask. But that Kylo Ren's still menacing and intimidating; he's not an unstoppable killing machine, but his random bouts of anger make him completely unpredictable. Seeing him trash numerous rooms on his Star Destroyer should shock the audience, as that level of unrestrained rage has yet to be seen in a Star Wars film.
In the story, Kylo Ren's fascination with his heritage and his grandfather makes him completely unique. Yes, his call toward the light is the inverse of the struggle Anakin felt toward the dark, but the film relishes that nuanced twist. Adam Driver runs with it too, creating a frightening yet almost sympathetic character with every tortured stare and gnarled line of dialogue.
Han & Chewie
Even the returning characters get new twists and developments. When we meet Han and Chewie, their relationship itself remains unchanged; Han's still a scoundrel and Chewbacca's still his loyal, lovable and sometimes ferocious friend. But the film doesn't just plop Han and Chewie into the plot and let them run through the motions. Superficially, we get to see both Han and Chewie use the bowcaster — a weapon that mostly went unfired in its previous appearances. Seeing Han use it might not be a big deal, but it is a new idea.
More substantial, though, is the pair's return to smuggling. Up until this point, we never saw the two of them doing what they professed to do best. The only job we saw them take was transporting a farmboy, a wizard and two droids to Alderaan. After that they became (somewhat) respectable members of the Rebellion, working their way up to command positions. We saw more of Han Solo the general than Han Solo the smuggler. "The Force Awakens" actually shows the two of them in the middle of a job — one that goes totally wrong.
Most important of all, "The Force Awakens" repositions Han Solo from the snarky outsider to the most important character in the film — possibly the new trilogy. We see a bit of Han Solo the father, which is a whole different side of the character. His final interaction with his son also shows a paternal tenderness unlike anything that could have been shown in the original trilogy.
Aerial Dogfights
"The Force Awakens" returns to a number of elements we saw in the original trilogy: a desert, the snow, a forest. But the film, unlike every other "Star Wars" film, features very few space battles. Instead, "The Force Awakens" mines a totally new setting for excitement: the air. Yeah, it's a small twist on what's come before, but it pays off with a series of visually compelling dogfights unlike anything we've seen before. Shots of TIE fighters approaching, silhouetted by the sun and X-wings gliding over water put these ships in a totally new context. We're not dealing with the coldness of space, but instead the warmth of the atmosphere as fighters literally zoom over our characters' heads. The film also played up the relationship between the ground and air battles, with Jakku scavengers rushing a crashed TIE felled by the Millennium Falcon and Poe taking out ground troopers from his X-wing up above.
Intense Lightsaber Duels
Like the dogfights, the lightsaber usage in "The Force Awakens" is subtly revolutionary. The original trilogy treating lightsaber duels as quasi-formal fencing affairs, and the prequels amped them up into fast-paced martial arts stunt-fests. In this movie, novices mostly wield lightsabers. Because of that, we get to see them being handled in a totally new way. Finn treats Luke's lightsaber like a brawling weapon, stabbing a Stormtrooper up close with one before going up against a riot control officer's massive weapon. This level of brutal efficiency is unlike anything we've seen before.
But the real revelatory lightsaber battle comes at the end of the film, when Rey and Finn go up against Kylo Ren. We've seen two-on-one fights before, most notably in "The Phantom Menace." But Rey and Finn are not Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan — and the movie plays that up. If you watch the choreography, Rey and Finn are bad with lightsabers. They swat and swipe at Kylo Ren, swinging for the fences and causing more damage to the trees surrounding them than their enemy. The fight is scrappy, intense and close-up; it's not dazzling or formal, it's tense with tinges of horror as our heroes try their hardest to evade Kylo Ren.
That last point is made clear in Rey's go against Kylo Ren. She spends the entire first half of their fight on the defensive, running and scrambling to get away from him while thrusting and jabbing at him in wild bursts. Her skills with a staff are made clear in the first act, so it makes sense that she can hold her own against Kylo, but just barely. Only when she taps into the Force is she able to find his weakness — and even then, the battle is decided more by willpower and luck than skill.
By their definition, the prequels could not plausibly explore the legacy of these characters since most of them hadn't even been born yet. And since the original trilogy was made decades before the prequels, there's very little in-story reverence for Obi-Wan, Yoda and Vader. But "The Force Awakens" feels the legacy of the franchise in the story as much as the fans do outside of it. The movie treats the amazing feats of our heroes as myths and legends, or hearsay whispered about in the Outer Rim. This real sense of legacy carries through to the characters, as they speak of Luke with reverence and Vader with trembling respect. Han himself even gets called a war hero and, spoiler alert again, his death feels more like a gut punch than Obi-Wan's originally did since we know Han from three previous movies. "The Force Awakens" feels unlike any other Star Wars movie because it's the first one that's able to explore the legacy of all that's gone before.
The Final Shot
The previous trilogy-starters, "A New Hope" and "The Phantom Menace," both end with our heroes lined up at a celebration following the destruction of the Death Star and the defeat of the Trade Federation. "The Force Awakens" also has a shot like that at the end, as the gathered Resistance fighters line up to see Rey, R2-D2 and Chewbacca off in the Millennium Falcon. But then… the movie keeps going.
We travel to an island on a distant planet and watch Rey climb a long trail of stone stairs, reaching the top to find a shrouded man. Luke Skywalker removes his hood, turns, sees Rey offering him back his old lightsaber, an aerial shot sweeps around the two of them and it ends.
No other "Star Wars" movie has ended like that — and this is a franchise that loves callbacks. The movies usually end on group shots, and here's this, a dizzying one-on-one stare down that asks an infinite number of questions. Our heroes are scattered (in fact, Rey and Poe never even met) and Rey stands before a Jedi. Does Luke recognize her? Does Rey want to be trained? Will Luke train her? "The Force Awakens" pays tribute to "A New Hope" in a number of ways, but this purposefully open-ended and intimate ending is unlike anything we've seen before.

Worry or not these are the latest robot trends
Robots are here to stay. Technology has advanced to such a degree that those who remain resolutely anti-robot can be forgiven for feeling a little overwhelmed by it all. Most media and business focus is on how robots can improve the overall quality of life for human beings on planet earth. Because time and space does not allow an extensive analysis of all the latest developments and trends in the world of robots only a few themes can be mentioned here. In the weeks and months to come there will be more breaking news stories. Media focuses on the attention,…Read More
Robots Dotting the I's and Dashing the codes
There's a lady who shares her house with a cat and six children. Two of the children are extremely unusual. This lady is fairly up to date with technology. For instance, she has taken advantage of the young tech company, Wonder Workshop, and its innovative toys. This lady, hands full, is also a fairly good mother because she seems to believe in allowing her kids to mix pleasure with business. Or more specifically, allow them to play with toys that basically educate them at the same time. Speaking of children, the older unusual kid in this lady's house is a…Read More
School for robot kids
Brett is a spoiled brat. He is armed to the teeth with toys that other kids only dream about and go gaga over it. Every day he gets to play with planes, blocks, plastic guns and play-play home and kitchen wear gadgets. Like most normal kids his age, Brett the brat has arms and legs and a developing brain which he can use to apply to the games at hand. If he was not so busy playing he would not mind telling curious onlookers to mind their own business and that what he is doing is not kid's stuff anyway….Read More
Robot genocide
The war against hard-working robots is becoming more violent. In fact, in some cases it has become deadly. The earlier death of the lovable hitchBOT was suspected to have been deliberate. The motivations for attacking diligent machines, whose only purpose in life is to work, may be understandable, but remain questionable. Even since before the Industrial Revolution, the history of antagonism against the use of machinery at the cost of human labour has been fraught with tension, unsettling conflict and sometimes violence. There is an old religious saying that says, "violence, in essence, achieves nothing." The extreme measures being taken…Read More
Will they or won't they steal human jobs?
Some say they won't. Others are saying they will. While the debate rages on, sometimes to the point of irrational and useless statements being made, robots continue to quietly evolve and get on with the jobs that they were designed and manufactured to do. They make no arguments at this stage. Companies love them because they do not collectivize into unions and raise grievances with their bosses, they just carry on working until someone or something tells them to stop or simply switches them off. Another argument is that robots won't be contributing to the creation of new jobs for…Read More
Oceans of robots
Soon the world's polluted streams, rivers, and oceans will be swimming with robots. Elsewhere, while this world appears to be growing on the idea of familiar sitings of drones, technology is touted to be advancing the cause of cyborgs becoming a third set of ears and eyes towards increasing the pace of human, not robot, evolution. But down by the river, scientists are setting to sail a batch of robots to help them learn more about global water passages. This advanced idea to measure the furthest reaches of oceans, rivers, and lakes was born at the Queensland University of Technology…Read More
Robots are not to blame for job losses
It is ultimately the fault of human behaviour when life's labours bring them down. There are many human beings, on the side of labour rights, who blame modern technology for the massive job losses taking place around the world. They often argue that multinational companies in particular are often only concerned with their bottom lines and the imperative to generate annual profits and attractive dividend payments for their shareholders. Today, as the technologies to do this are advancing at a rapid pace, the creation of robots is being blamed for yet more job cuts and looming employment crises in the…Read More
You guys are doing it all wrong
If you want to kill off the growing robot population, particularly those that are manufactured to kill, then you had better done it right way. This may be a generous bit of advice from one pro-android writer who believes that the alarmist views of high profile proponents against killer robots have been blown out of proportion. The writer (who for the purposes of this story will remain anonymous for now) acknowledges the immortalization of killer robots in science fiction stories, but believes that the reality is far, far different and will remain so in the future. This writer believes that…Read More
Turning robots into soccer stars
Sepp Blatter will not be feeling threatened by these potential rivals. By the time this innovative tournament truly kicks off, Blatter will be long gone fabricating new stories in his study. The octogenarian may even be dead. Messi and Ronaldo may not have to worry yet, but perhaps the average high school or college soccer player may have to pull his or her socks up. RoboCup 2015 has just been launched in the Australian state of Victoria. Over 500 junior and high school scholars have coached their robotic stars into championship contenders. This inaugural event is being hosted by the…Read More
Good, down under robots are going to school
Much like their creators, there are bad robots, some very bad, so much so that they will kill. Then there are good robots whose only motivation is to help humanoids if only by design. Now, these are very good robots. They are going to school. Two Australian schools will be graced with the presence of robots in their classrooms. Kids being what they are, this will only be a joy to them. In Australia, research is being conducted into how robots can be integrated into human learning environments by way of primary and high school classroom scenarios. The three year…Read More

The FETN Annual Conference provides a unique opportunity for managers and practitioners to share good practice, discuss topical issues and network with colleagues and sector experts in the pursuit of excellence.
The workshops offer a range of themes that support the development and improvement of tutorial, support and learner development across the Education and Training sector.
Our opening keynote this year, delivered by Gary Philips, Head of Workforce Development at the Education & Training Foundation, is 'No longer a side dish: the importance of tutorial in our outcome focused world'. This thought provoking presentation will provide an opportunity to reflect on why, and how, tutorial in its various guises can no longer be just an add on to a student's programme, and the cost to a provider who does not take it seriously.
Our afternoon keynote is 'British Values including Prevent in the context of the tutoring role' delivered by Julie Gibson, author, inspector, chief examiner and respected advisor. This will be an interactive presentation that explores British values, including Prevent and how we manage these effectively. It will focus on practice, rather than theory, allowing reflection on what will help your learners to enjoy both achievement now and positive next steps.
Workshops themes include:
- The challenges of the Tutor Assessor in Work Based Learning

Report: Tennessee coach Butch Jones allegedly called Vols player a 'traitor' for helping victim
A new legal filing in the Title IX lawsuit against the University of Tennessee includes a new allegation involving Vols coach Butch Jones.
In a sworn affidavit, Drae Bowles said Jones called him a "traitor" and said he "betrayed the team" when Bowles helped a woman who alleges that two other football players raped her, Nate Rau and Matt Slovin of The Tennessean reported Wednesday.
Bowles was allegedly confronted twice by other teammates for helping the woman, including once in the locker room when he said Vols linebacker/defensive end Curt Maggitt punched him in the mouth. In the affidavit, Bowles said Jones called him twice after the confrontation, and the second time he apologized for calling him "a traitor to the team."
This new allegation became public one day after Jones and 15 other Tennessee head coaches held a joint press conference to defend the culture of the athletic programs at the university.
It was previously reported that Bowles, who transferred out of the program shortly after these alleged events, was confronted twice by teammates, and former Vols defensive back Mike Williams said Geraldo Orta put "a hit out" on Bowles. Orta denied that in a Facebook post.
The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in Nashville, claims the university "enabled an environment of bad behavior and used a disciplinary system that favored the players," and cited more than a dozen incidents over the past 20 years.
There were five Tennessee football players named in the suit, and two more were recently added. Dustin Dopirak of the Knoxville News Sentinel reported Wednesday that the new players named in the lawsuit are Von Pearson and Alexis Johnson, who was recently arrested on charges of aggravated assault and false imprisonment and then suspended from football activities.

Purple What's In Your Mattress
The Accurate Source To Find Transcript To Purple What's In Your Mattress."
[Purple What's In Your Mattress]
[Purple Mattress:] Source: LYBIO.net
When you wake up in the morning and you think ouchie my back hurts. You have to wonder, what's in your mattress? Well let's take a look at all current mattress technologies.
Spring mattresses are bouncy. Those springs push back hard on your hips and shoulders causing your back to sag into the mattress.
Memory foam, initially might feel kind of nice, but eventually you sink, and continue to sink and then it gets hot and sweaty. Once you fully sink in, it can be extremely uncomfortable.
Gel foam is supposed to be the cool new version of memory foam, [touting a] cooler sleep. Unfortunately you still sink like quicksand in the blue colors mostly. Well, pigment, because if it's blue, it's cold, right, not really.
Adjustable air mattresses are better used for camping or bouncy houses.
Use high pressure for your back and your hips will hurt.
Use low pressure for your hips; your shoulders and back will sag.
To fix problems with the air mattress, fancy, expensive air mattress companies have added memory foam to the tops of their mattresses, because we all know how great memory foam is.
Latex is also quite bouncy; not usually what you want for sleep.
Like when you hear someone say I'm so tired I just want to lay down and bounce around, they are okay for pressure relief, but not great at back support.
If all this talk of crappy mattresses has got you down, don't worry, because we at Purple, do have an answer.
If you're looking for a beautiful night sleep, at a price that will make you smile, the scientists at Purple have got your back.

Actress questions Emmy minority treatment
Regina King: 'Emmys as white as ever'Actress Regina King ("Southland") is taking a stand on the under-representation of minorities at the Emmys.
In "The Emmys: As White As Ever" on the HuffintonPost.com, she wrote that "it is impossible for me to ignore the published statistics regarding the number of people of color mentioned, celebrated or honored in the history of the televised Emmys."
Up to and including this year, there have been only 53 non-white actors nominated for Emmys out of nearly 1,000 possible nominations in the top four acting categories. "I've worked in television nearly all of my professional life, and that statistic is quite sobering to me," King wrote. "And to add injury to my already sensitive nerve endings a picture of Rutina Wesley from 'True Blood,' who attended this year's Emmys, had a caption that read: "Regina King enters the 62nd Emmys"." King wasn't at the ceremony.
The actress also lamented that Alaina Reed Hall, who was an actress on "Sesame Street" for 12 years, wasn't included in this year's Emmys memoriam.
"To not recognize her contribution to television baffles the mind," King said.
She concluded by asking what she said was an essential question for any TV artist: "What is the process in determining who will and will not be recognized during the Emmy memoriam?"

The Guardian's diplomatic editor has condemned Western media coverage of the Middle East, writes Lou Thomas.
Ewen MacAskill also warned journalists against using the phrase "Arab press" — which he said was too general a term — to describe the region's journalism, speaking at a debate on xenophobia and disinformation in the media at St Bride's Church, Fleet Street.
MacAskill said: "I think the Western media's coverage of the Middle East is generally pretty appalling. Our knowledge of what's happening in most Arab countries is very thin, sketchy and completely back to front most of the time.
He added: "A lot of the Western media don't staff the Middle East particularly well. The first thing I do when I arrive in an Arab country is not go to the British embassy or the government press office, but meet the local journalists. They're fantastically well informed about what's going on in their country — with a level of complexity about the politics that we can't even begin to reach."
MacAskill said that one solution was for more Western news organisations to employ Arab journalists.
Times diplomatic editor Richard Beeston raised concerns over misreporting of the death toll after the Israeli air force bombed the Lebanese village of Qana. Original reports claimed 54 died, but it later emerged that the true figure was 26.
Beeston said: "On the plus side, I thought the coverage, particularly in south Lebanon, was very good. We did know in a very timely fashion what was happening on the ground and I think it did accelerate bringing the fighting to an end."

'Supergirl' Costume Unveiled: See First Pic Of Melissa Benoist
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's… Supergirl! And she's finally gotten her cape! First production shots from the pilot of 'Supergirl' have just been released and we've got our first look at the lady hero all suited up!
Supergirl is ready to fight crime. Well, she is dressed to, anyway. Production has just gotten underway on the hotly anticipated CBS pilot, Supergirl, based on the classic characters from DC Comics. Now, we've gotten our first look at former Glee star Melissa Benoist as the crimefighting heroine. Check it out inside!
'Supergirl' Costume
Now that's a hero.
We finally have our first peak at Melissa in her superhero getup and, let's just say, we'd totally trust her with our lives.
Supergirl is certainly one of the biggest pilots in the running for the 2015-16 season, and it's pulled top-tier talent for all areas of production. The costumes, for example, one of which can be seen on Melissa in the photo, will all be designed by Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood, who recently worked on Into the Woods.
Will 'Supergirl' Be Super?
Supergirl is going full speed ahead with filming set to begin.
Melissa will play Kara Danvers/Kara Zor-El, Superman's 24-year-old cousin. As the series begins, Kara has just decided to finally embrace her superhero powers, which she has spent years denying.
Along with Melissa, Supergirl will star Calista Flockhart as Kara's boss, Jeremy Jordan as the villainous Toyman, and Laura Benanti in a recurring role as Kara's mother.
Also in a very interesting bit of casting, the original Supergirl and Superman Helen Slater and Dean Cain will have roles in the show, though they are being kept very hushed.
On the creative side of the pilot, Greg Berlanti is at the helm who has plenty of experience in the area as he also headed The Flash and Arrow.
What do you think of the Supergirl costume? Are you excited for the series (if the pilot gets picked up, that is)?

Back to work, back to blogging, and of course back to my clean green Cuttlebug machine! :) for challenge #4, which is to emboss on patterned paper! I found this hard!! so i've kept my design very simple(the first couple of efforts went in the recycle bin!!!)
What's that saying..... 'less is more'...... Trudi,....you really are challenging me!!!!
I've cut my roses from a sheet of Basic Grey 'lollipop shoppe' Marzipan which i've backed with bazzill black cardstock, and run through the CB Swiss Dots folder. The ferns are made with my McGill punch(i think there is a similar Martha Stewart one!) The sentiment is a HOTP acrylic which has been inked with Ranger Archival black. Card blank is 158mm square, and i've edged it with Colorbox cats eye in Charcoal.
Hope you can find some time to play along this week, i would really love to see what you can do(better than me i'm sure!!) and don't forget to check out the other girls on the DT for their fab creations :)
Thanks so much for your visit :) see you very soon!
