Historical records matching Dame Daphne du Maurier, DBE
Immediate Family
About Dame Daphne du Maurier, DBE
Dame Daphne du Maurier, Lady Browning DBE ( /ˈdæfniː duː ˈmɒri.eɪ/; 13 May 1907 – 19 April 1989) was a British author and playwright.
Many of her works have been adapted into films, including the novels Rebecca (which won the Best Picture Oscar in 1941) and Jamaica Inn and the short stories "The Birds" and "Don't Look Now". The first three were directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
Her elder sister was the writer Angela du Maurier. Her father was the actor Gerald du Maurier. Her grandfather was the writer George du Maurier.
Early life
Daphne du Maurier was born in London, the second of three daughters of the prominent actor-manager Sir Gerald du Maurier and actress Muriel Beaumont (maternal niece of William Comyns Beaumont). Her grandfather was the author and Punch cartoonist George du Maurier, who created the character of Svengali in the novel Trilby.
These connections helped her in establishing her literary career, and du Maurier published some of her very early work in Beaumont's Bystander magazine. Her first novel, The Loving Spirit, was published in 1931.
Du Maurier was also the cousin of the Llewelyn Davies boys, who served as J.M. Barrie's inspiration for the characters in the play Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up. As a young child, she met many of the brightest stars of the theatre, thanks to the celebrity of her father. On meeting Tallulah Bankhead, she was quoted as saying that the actress was the most beautiful creature she had ever seen.
Novels, short stories and biographies
Literary critics have sometimes berated du Maurier's works for not being "intellectually heavyweight" like those of George Eliot or Iris Murdoch.[citation needed] By the 1950s, when the socially and politically critical "angry young men" were in vogue, her writing was felt by some to belong to a bygone age. Today, she has been reappraised as a first-rate storyteller, a mistress of suspense. Her ability to recreate a sense of place is much admired, and her work remains popular worldwide. For several decades she was the most popular author for library book borrowings.
The novel Rebecca, which has been adapted for stage and screen on several occasions, is generally regarded as her masterpiece. One of her strongest influences here was Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë. Her fascination with the Brontë family is also apparent in The Infernal World of Branwell Brontë, her biography of the troubled elder brother to the Brontë girls. The fact that their mother had been Cornish no doubt added to her interest.
Other notable works include The Scapegoat, The House on the Strand, and The King's General. The latter is set in the middle of the first and second English Civil Wars. Though written from the Royalist perspective of her native Cornwall, it gives a fairly neutral view of this period of history.
Several of her other novels have also been adapted for the screen, including Jamaica Inn, Frenchman's Creek, Hungry Hill, and My Cousin Rachel (1951). The Hitchcock film The Birds (1963) is based on a treatment of one of her short stories, as is the film Don't Look Now (1973). Of the films, du Maurier often complained that the only ones she liked were Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca and Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now. Hitchcock's treatment of Jamaica Inn involved a complete rewrite of the ending to accommodate the ego of its star, Charles Laughton. Du Maurier also felt that Olivia de Havilland was totally wrong as the (anti-)heroine in My Cousin Rachel. Frenchman's Creek fared rather better with its lavish Technicolor sets and costumes. Du Maurier later regretted her choice of Alec Guinness as the lead in the film of The Scapegoat, which she partly financed.
Du Maurier was often categorised as a "romantic novelist" (a term she deplored),[4] though most of her novels, with the notable exception of Frenchman's Creek, are quite different from the stereotypical format of a Georgette Heyer or a Barbara Cartland novel. Du Maurier's novels rarely have a happy ending, and her brand of romanticism is often at odds with the sinister overtones and shadows of the paranormal she so favoured. In this light, she has more in common with the "sensation novels" of Wilkie Collins et al., which she admired.
Du Maurier's novel Mary Anne (1954) is a fictionalised account of the real-life story of her great-great-grandmother, Mary Anne Clarke née Thompson (1776–1852). From 1803 to 1808, Mary Anne Clarke was mistress of Frederick Augustus, Duke of York and Albany (1763–1827). He was the "Grand Old Duke of York" of the nursery rhyme, a son of King George III and brother of the later King George IV.
In Ken Follett's thriller The Key to Rebecca, du Maurier's novel Rebecca is used as the key for a code used by a German spy in World War II Cairo. Neville Chamberlain is reputed to have read Rebecca on the plane journey that led to Adolf Hitler signing the Munich Agreement.
The central character of her last novel, Rule Britannia, is an aging and eccentric actress who was based on Gertrude Lawrence and Gladys Cooper (to whom it is dedicated). However, the character is most recognisably du Maurier herself.
Indeed, it was in her short stories that she was able to give free rein to the harrowing and terrifying side of her imagination; "The Birds", "Don't Look Now", "The Apple Tree" and "The Blue Lenses" are exquisitely crafted tales of terror that shocked and surprised her audience in equal measure.
A more recent discovery of a collection of du Maurier's forgotten short stories, written when the author was 21, provides an intriguing insight into the writer she was to become. One of them, "The Doll", is a suspense-driven gothic tale about a young woman's obsession with a mechanical male sex doll; it has been deemed by du Maurier's son Kit Browning as being "quite ahead of its time".
Perhaps more than at any other time, du Maurier was anxious as to how her bold new writing style would be received, not just by her readers (and to some extent her critics, though by then she had grown wearily accustomed to their often lukewarm reviews) but also by her immediate circle of family and friends.
In later life, she wrote nonfiction, including several biographies that were well received. This, no doubt, came from a deep-rooted desire to be accepted as a serious writer, comparing herself to her neighbour, A. L. Rowse, the celebrated historian and essayist, who lived a few miles away from her house near Fowey.
Also of interest are the "family" novels/biographies that du Maurier wrote of her own ancestry, of which Gerald, the biography of her father, was most lauded. Later she wrote The Glass-Blowers, which traces her French ancestry and gives a vivid depiction of the French Revolution. The du Mauriers is a sequel of sorts describing the somewhat problematic ways in which the family moved from France to England in the 19th century and finally Mary Anne, the novel based on the life of a notable, and infamous, English ancestor—her great-grandmother Mary Anne Clarke, former mistress of Frederick, Duke of York.
Her final novels reveal just how far her writing style had developed. The House on the Strand (1969) combines elements of "mental time-travel", a tragic love affair in 14th century Cornwall, and the dangers of using mind-altering drugs. Her final novel, Rule Britannia, written post-Vietnam, plays with the resentment of English people in general and Cornish people in particular at the increasing dominance of the U.S.
In late 2006, a previously unknown work titled And His Letters Grew Colder was discovered by Ann Willmore of Bookends of Fowey. This was estimated to have been written in the late 1920s and takes the form of a series of letters tracing an adulterous, passionate affair from initial ardour to deflated acrimony.
Daphne du Maurier wrote three plays. Her first was a successful adaptation of her novel Rebecca, which opened at the Queen's Theatre in London on 5 March 1940 in a production by George Devine, starring Celia Johnson and Owen Nares as the De Winters and Margaret Rutherford as Mrs. Danvers. At the end of May, following a run of 181 performances, the production transferred to the Strand Theatre, with Jill Furse taking over as Mrs. De Winter and Mary Merrall as Danvers, with a further run of 176 performances.
In the summer of 1943, she began writing the autobiographically inspired drama The Years Between about the unexpected return of a senior officer, thought killed in action, who finds that his wife has taken his seat as Member of Parliament and has started a romantic relationship with a local farmer. It was first staged at the Manchester Opera House in 1944 and then transferred to London, opening at Wyndham's Theatre on 10 January 1945, starring Nora Swinburne and Clive Brook. The production, directed by Irene Hentschel, became a long-running hit, completing 617 performances. After 60 years of neglect, it was revived by Caroline Smith at the Orange Tree Theatre in Richmond upon Thames on 5 September 2007, starring Karen Ascoe and Mark Tandy.
Better known is her third play, September Tide, about a middle-aged woman whose bohemian artist son-in-law falls for her. The central character of Stella was originally based on Ellen Doubleday and was merely what Ellen might have been in an English setting and in a different set of circumstances. Again directed by Irene Hentschel, it opened at the Aldwych Theatre on 15 December 1948 with Gertrude Lawrence as Stella, enjoying a run of 267 performances before closing at the beginning of August 1949. It was to lead to a close personal and social relationship between Daphne and Gertrude.
Since then, September Tide has received occasional revivals, most recently at the Comedy Theatre in London in January 1994, starring film and stage actress Susannah York as Stella with Michael Praed as the saturnine young artist. Reviewing the production for the Richmond & Twickenham Times, critic John Thaxter wrote: "The play and performances delicately explore their developing relationship. And as the September gales batter the Cornish coast, isolating Stella's cottage from the outside world, she surrenders herself to the truth of a moment of unconventional tenderness."
In 2005, "September Tide" adapted by Moya O'Shea and Produced/Directed by Tracey Neale was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and starred Paula Wilcox as Stella and Jonathan Firth as Evan. It has since been repeated on BBC 7.
Personal names, titles and honours
She was known as Daphne du Maurier from 1907 to 1932 when she became Mrs Frederick Browning while writing as Daphne du Maurier (1932–1946). She was titled Lady Browning; Daphne du Maurier (1946–1969). Later, on receiving the honorific Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire, she was Lady Browning; Dame Daphne du Maurier DBE (1969–1989).
When in the Queen's Birthday Honours List for June 1969 Daphne du Maurier was created a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire, she accepted but never used the title. According to Margaret Forster, she told no one about the honour, so that even her children only learned of it from the newspapers. "She thought of pleading illness for the investiture, until her children insisted it would be a great day for the older grandchildren. So she went through with it, though she slipped out quietly afterwards to avoid the attention of the press".
Plagiarism accusations
Shortly after Rebecca was published in Brazil, critic Álvaro Lins and other readers pointed out many resemblances between du Maurier's book and the work of Brazilian writer Carolina Nabuco. Nabuco's A sucessora (The Successor) has a main plot similar to Rebecca, including a young woman marrying a widower and the strange presence of the first wife—plot features also shared with the far older Jane Eyre. Nina Auerbach claimed in her book Daphne du Maurier, Haunted Heiress that du Maurier had read the Brazilian book when the first drafts were sent to be published in England and based her famous bestseller on it. "Ms. Nabuco had translated her novel into French and sent it to a publisher in Paris, who she learned was also Ms. du Maurier's".
The controversy reached The New York Times Book Review, which exhaustively compared excerpts from both books. According to Nabuco's memoirs, when Hitchcock's movie Rebecca was first shown in Brazil, United Artists wanted her to sign a document saying that all the similarities were merely a coincidence. The Brazilian writer refused to sign it.
According to the New York Times Book Review, in an article published in November 5, 2002, these were the words on Nabuco's memoirs, on this episode: "When the film version of 'Rebecca' came to Brazil, the producers' lawyer sought out my lawyer to ask him that I sign a document admitting the possibility of there having been a mere coincidence. I would be compensated with a quantity described as 'of considerable value.' I did not consent, naturally.
Du Maurier denied having copied Nabuco's book, as did her publisher, claiming that the plot used in Rebecca was quite common. According to Nabuco and her editor, not only the main plot, but also situations and entire dialogues had been copied. More recently, the NY Times Book Review brought the issue back to attention on the subject of the book The Life of Pi, allegedly plagiarized from a short story by Brazilian author Moacyr Sclia.
Personal life
She married Lieutenant-General Sir Frederick "Boy" Browning, with whom she had two daughters, Tessa and Flavia, and a son, Christian. Tessa Browning (b. 1933) married Major Peter de Zulueta, whom she divorced and married David Montgomery, 2nd Viscount Montgomery of Alamein in 1970. Flavia (b. 1937) married Captain Alastair Tower, whom she divorced, before marrying General Sir Peter Leng. Christian (b. 1940) became a photographer and film-maker.
Biographers have noted that the marriage was at times somewhat chilly and that du Maurier could be aloof and distant to her children, especially the girls, when immersed in her writing. "Boy" died in 1965 and soon after Daphne moved to Kilmarth, near Par, which became the setting for The House on the Strand.
Du Maurier has often been painted as a frostily private recluse who rarely mixed in society or gave interviews. An exception to this came after the release of the film A Bridge Too Far, in which her late husband was portrayed in a less-than-flattering light. Du Maurier, incensed, wrote to the national newspapers, decrying what she considered unforgivable treatment. Once out of the glare of the public spotlight, however, many remembered her as a warm and immensely funny person who was a welcoming hostess to guests at Menabilly, the house she leased for many years (from the Rashleigh family) in Cornwall. Letters from Menabilly contains the letters from du Maurier to Malet over 30 years, with Malet's commentary. (Malet's real name is Auriel Malet Vaughan.)
Daphne du Maurier was a member of the Cornish nationalist pressure group/political party Mebyon Kernow. She was spoofed by her slightly older fellow writer P. G. Wodehouse as "Daphne Dolores Morehead".
Secret sexual relationships
After her death in 1989, numerous references were made to her secret bisexuality; an affair with Gertrude Lawrence, as well as her attraction for Ellen Doubleday, the wife of her American publisher, were cited. Du Maurier stated in her memoirs that her father had wanted a son; and, being a tomboy, she had naturally wished to have been born a boy. Her father, unusually for such a prominent theatre personality, was vociferously anti-homosexual. There is some evidence to suggest that Daphne's relationship with her father may have bordered on incest.
In correspondence released by her family for the first time to her biographer, Margaret Forster, du Maurier explained to a trusted few her own unique slant on her sexuality: her personality, she explained, comprised two distinct people—the loving wife and mother (the side she showed to the world) and the lover (a decidedly male energy) hidden to virtually everyone and the power behind her artistic creativity. According to the biography, du Maurier believed the male energy was the demon that fuelled her creative life as a writer. Forster maintains that it became evident in personal letters revealed after her death, however, that du Maurier's denial of her bisexuality unveiled a homophobic fear of her true nature.
Du Maurier died aged 81 at her home in Cornwall, which had been the setting for many of her books. Her body was cremated and her ashes scattered at Kilmarth.
Cultural references
English Heritage created controversy in June 2008 when they rejected an application to commemorate her home in Hampstead with a Blue Plaque.
Daphne du Maurier was one of five "Women of Achievement" selected for a set of British stamps issued in August 1996. The others were Dorothy Hodgkin (scientist), Margot Fonteyn (ballerina), Elizabeth Frink (sculptor), and Marea Hartman (sports administrator).

AND OMG JOEY/DANNY ARE TEAM #3 *gloats to all haters*
Um Phil check yo facts. Romber convinced half of TAR7 to not complete a challenge and they all survived.
Quote from: Kandace on March 04, 2012, 07:43:28 PMAND OMG JOEY/DANNY ARE TEAM #3 *gloats to all haters* What on earth is Phil on about!?!?!? First ever team to not finish a task and stay in the race!?!?!? Has he even SEEN the TAR7 Meat Roadblock!?!?!? I don't get this!!!!!
Rachel & Dave are the first team to not complete a single challenge in a leg and still stay. There was a detour before the meat roadblock.
Phil Keoghan @PhilKeoghan Can you believe it? We have an all out race between two teams, just the way we like it! #AmazingRace

Phil tweets: QuoteA to Q the greeter was @Fiomigliore she was great to work with and the guys loved her:) pic.twitter.com/B9khVfh1
When Phil said they are the only team not to finish a task to stay in the race isn't he wrong? Didn't like half the teams quit the meat eating road block on season 7 in Argentina??
Maybe what he meant was "didn't complete a single task and still stayed in the race".
Too early to use that Express Pass. If they were to use it, they should have used it before they even started the watermelon challenge.

my first - hooked for lifeand loving it :-) age 13, my first festival in a massive crowd of 25,000 people. walked (crawled) all the way to the front ... I was so small, couldn't see a thing unless I got to the fence ... barely knew U2 at the time but that was about to change. a steaming version of Out of Control opened the set. I remember Bono climbing into the PA tower, jumping off the stage to come and shake hands with those of us up front ... what a madman! what an energy!! 27 years later I still love the lads to little bits and pieces. There's no telling to how much I enjoyed the shows over the years. I will always consider bumping into U2 a very precious gift.

The federal government has backed Israel's claim that Melbourne man and suspected Mossad spy Ben Zygier had no contact with Australian intelligence agency ASIO.
Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus says ASIO Director-General David Irvine has now briefed him on the agency's knowledge of Zygier's 2010 arrest and detention in a maximum-security Israeli jail.
"The director-general's account is entirely consistent with the recent statement issued by the Israeli prime minister," Mr Dreyfus's office said in a brief statement.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this week issued a statement saying Zygier - also known as Ben Alon and Ben Allen - had no contact with Australian security services.
Zygier was a dual Australian-Israeli citizen who died in the Ayalon Prison outside Tel Aviv in December 2010.
It is believed he worked for Israeli spy agency Mossad but it is still unclear why he was imprisoned.
He was the so-called Prisoner X - one of Israel's most sensitive security secrets until his identity was revealed by the ABC.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade is reviewing its handling of the case and is due to deliver a report to Foreign Minister Bob Carr within the next few days.
Senator Carr said he would share the report with people like Kevin Rudd, who was prime minister at the time of Zygier's arrest. It's unclear whether Mr Rudd was made aware of the case at the time.
Senator Carr told reporters in Thailand he would also provide the report to other Labor ministers and the opposition.

Sugata Mitra, an educational researcher in England, has won the $1 TED Prize for social entrepreneurship for his plan to build an online learning lab for kids in India called School in the Cloud.
Mitra discussed his plan today at the annual TED Conference in Long Beach, Calif., where a wide range of people with big ideas, from Internet co-creator Vint Cerf to a yo-yo champion who goes by the name of Black, share their visionary thinking and accomplishments. Past TED Prize winners have included President Bill Clinton and U2 singer Bono.
[Whirlwind tour of computing and telecom's top honors, awards and prizes]
Mitras School in the Cloud concept is an outgrowth of his Hole in the Wall experiments, in which Mitra and his colleagues in 1999 dug a hole in a wall bordering an urban slum in New Delhi, installed an Internet-connected PC, and left it there (with a hidden camera filming the area). What they saw was kids from the slum playing around with the computer and in the process learning how to use it and how to go online, and then teaching each other, according to his TED bio.
Mitra also said the School in the Cloud concept has evolved from teaching systems as old as those promoted by the British Empire, which were based on word of mouth. The School in the Cloud would be a way of going beyond obsolete notions common in many of todays schools, Mitra says.
At TED, Mitra provided a link to a Self-Organized Learning Environment toolkit that anyone can download for bringing child-driven learning to their community. Broadband connections, collaboration among the learners and some grannies in the cloud adults connected by Skype and encouragement are among the keys to making the system work, Mitra says.

The EPA today announced that it has waived a limitation on selling gasoline that contains more than 10 percent ethanol for model year (MY) 2001-2006 cars and light trucks. This waiver allows fuel to contain up to 15 percent ethanol (E15) for these vehicles.
"Recently completed testing and data analysis show that E15 does not harm emissions control equipment in newer cars and light trucks," said EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson. "Wherever sound science and the law support steps to allow more home-grown fuels in America's vehicles, this administration takes those steps."
This announcement follows EPA's announcement last October that E15 could be used for MY 2007 and newer vehicles. The EPA has not allowed the use of E15 for MY 2000 and older vehicles. The EPA also announced that no waiver is being granted this year for E15 use in any motorcycles, heavy-duty vehicles or non-road engines because current testing data do not support such a waiver.
EPA is currently developing requirements to ensure that E15 is properly labeled at the fuel pump to prevent fueling into vehicles, engines and equipment not currently approved for the higher ethanol blend.
EPA granted the waiver after considering the E15 petition submitted by Growth Energy and 54 ethanol manufacturers in March 2009.
Tom Buis, CEO, Growth Energy, said, "This is a bold move forward, changing America's energy future for the better. Increased use of ethanol will strengthen our energy security, create U.S. jobs, and improve the environment by displacing conventional gasoline with a low-carbon fuel."

WELLESLEY, Mass. – The Wellesley College field hockey team remained unbeaten in conference contests this season, posting a 6-0 victory over MIT at home on Saturday. The Blue now stand at 6-3 overall (3-0 in the NEWMAC) and the Engineers fall to 5-9 (0-4).
Wellesley got on the board twice in the first four minutes behind goals from Kate Cushing and Sally Scudder, and the Blue maintained control of the game from the outset. Whitney Reid added a third goal just before the half, notching the fourth goal of her first collegiate season.
The Blue continued to control the game in the second half, dominating in the MIT end and holding the Engineers to only four shots on the day. Katie Frett opened scoring in the second with an unassisted goal, and Scudder and Maddie Block added two scores to run the final tally to 6-0. The Blue totaled 25 shots overall in the win.
Wellesley goalkeepers Emily Hewitt and Sarina Sawyer went largely untested each tallying a save in 35 minutes of work. Keri Dixon was busy between the posts, recording 19 saves for the Engineers. Wellesley out-shot MIT 43-4 on the day and held a 15-4 advantage in penalty corners.
The Blue return to action on Tuesday for a 4:00 home match-up against WPI. The Engineers are idle until next Saturday when they host Smith in a 1:00pm game.

Concrete With Soul: Richard Holschuh's Countertops
We're smitten with these concrete countertops from Richard Holschuh, an artist and artisan from Vermont. His company creates custom concrete countertops for kitchens, baths, and other areas, and some of them blow away our usual ideas of what a concrete surface can look like.
We discovered Holschuh and his company, Concrete Detail, via an interview at kitchen designer Paul Anater's weblog. In the interview Holschuh talks about his philosophy of design:
Concrete countertops are, at least in our interpretation, highly functional aesthetic furnishings – we call it Artformed TM. Not rarefied, subjective collector's items, but hard-working and deeply satisfying necessities. Every home needs a countertop and everyone wants to make their home their own; the medium of concrete allows personal expression without design constraint, all the while meeting the demands of everyday life with durability, versatility, and sustainability (at a very competitive cost). Today's high performance concrete has very little to do with a cracked sidewalk and everything to do with lasting design in the hands of a master artisan. We utilize these capabilities to invest the concrete with soul: captured within the finished pieces are the craftsman, the dweller, and their environment. When the completed elements are delivered and brought into their intended places, they belong – because they were consciously made for that person and place alone. This is the essence of appropriate design.
Wow! Concrete with soul — that's a tall order. But we really love some of these designs; the flowing, stylized trees worked into that drainboard are really beautiful. The shiny black surface of the sink pictured above is really striking, too; we didn't know that concrete could look like that! (And we love that little egg bowl worked into one of the countertops!)

Seoul: Use of China Server in Cyberattack Fits Pyongyang M.O.
Mar 21, 2013 11:04 AM PT
North Korea is the suspected perpetrator of a hacking attack that knocked out a trio of South Korean broadcasters and two major banks on Wednesday.
South Korean officials in the capital of Seoul traced the attack to a server in China, something that meshes with previous attacks by North Korea.
The attack affected more than 30,000 computers at the broadcasters and banks. Some computer screens reportedly flashed images of skulls with glowing red eyes and audio of cryptic laughter. An expert quoted by the Yonhap news service said that some code looked like it originated from Western Europe, but added that the code also reeked of a disguise.
It will take up to five days for functions to be restored.
Despite one government official directly blaming Pyongyang, South Korea's computer crime authorities said it will take months to establish concrete evidence of North Korea's culpability -- or anyone's culpability, for that matter.
South Korea suspects North Korea of having carried out 70,000 cyberattacks over the past five years. The biggest attack believed to have come from North Korea took place in 2011 -- a 10-day denial of service bombardment that antivirus firm McAfee called "Ten Days of Rain".

Chinese Students Who Snoop Win Award
Baiyun University's "Students' Internet and Social Media Information Monitoring" unit -- which was dubbed the "Internet Red Army" by other students for its monitoring of students' online activities and conversations -- recently received a "distinguished college student management project" award from Guangdong province.
The group was formed in 2010 and is overseen by "counselors" who monitor what their classmates do on Weibo (which is akin to Twitter), Baidu Tieba (a network of online communities) and QQ (a wildly popular IM service). The group's goals would have made Mao Zedong happy: Control negative sentiment, monitor online conversations and correct opinions that need correcting.
The project was reportedly conceived in 2010 after an inaccurate Weibo post said that students at Baiyun had died.
Currently, six students, who use university computers, work roughly 90 minutes a day for about 8 yuan (US$1.25) per hour.

Asian Chat App Gunning for US
An Asian chat app called Line is setting up a U.S. marketing team and coordinating joint promotions and content-delivery agreements in the hopes of taking on Twitter.
Thirty-eight percent of Line's users are in Japan, but the company wants to "capture North America," according to its chief strategy and marketing officer, who added that the company is currently eschewing profits in the name of expansion.
Line is part of a cluster of Asia-based apps trying to challenge the U.S.'s dominion over mobile communication and social media platforms. KakaoTalk (South Korea) and WeChat (China), for instance, are each zealously expanding into foreign markets, trying to take on WhatsApp, Skype, Twitter and Facebook.
Line is available on Android, iPhone, Windows Phone and BlackBerry. It has topped the list of Apple's free downloads in 41 different countries, according to Japan's NHN.
More Details on Online Ad Scam
Details continue to emerge about an online ad scam revealed Tuesday by London-based analytics firm Spider.
The scam reportedly worked by tricking brands, including McDonald's and Disney, into paying for their ads to be shown to botnets, not to interested netizens.
With robots clicking away, the scam resulted in an obscure site specializing in oral hygiene news racking up more visitors than The Economist.

Just saw Star Trek over the weekend. With honor, I present:
Just saw Star Trek over the weekend. With honor, I present:
It was such a great movie. The better technology gets the better the sci-fi movies become.
Interesting point, E-man and it's something I've always been bugged by.
Look at the two incarnations of Battlestar Galactica. Now obviously the special effects in the new series blow the old ones away. But is it fair to say it's better because of that? After all, it's not a fair competition. For the time it was on TV (the late '70's) the original BSG was considered groundbreaking in its special effects and was the most expensive sci-fi TV show ever made.
Same thing with the Star Trek series. Yes the later ones had better special effects than the original. But why is it that Kirk et al continue to define the mythos? Because if you were to take TOS and give it updated computer graphic effects (wait a minute, they did do that!) then it would blow away TNG and the others.
Look at Planet of the Apes. You couldn't convince me the remake was better than the original.
The original Planet of the Apes is great. The remake was awful.
The new Star Wars movies don't hold a candle to the original Star Wars trilogy. Terminator 3 was terrible. The newest Indiana Jones was awful (or so I hear, I have no desire to watch a raping).
Cool special effects can definitely enhance a great movie (think Matrix) but modern movies sometimes rely on the special effects to the detriment of the film (think Matrix 2&3).
I came into this newest Star Wars movie expecting it to crash and burn, but turns out that I liked it, even if the plot at times revealed itself as annoyingly contrived.

A Star Trek quiz...Boldly going where no quiz has gone before
By David Buckna
Special to ASSIST News Service
I hear what you are saying and I will modify my statement, the better technology becomes the greater POTENTIAL sci-fi movies have. This is because it can be made to look more realistic. That is all. The plots of the old movies were much better and clearly had more thought put into them. If a modern day movie was made with the same thoughtfulness then it could be so much better, just because of visual effects.
Okay, I've seen it. Here's my brief review (a longer one will eventually show up on me blog)
Loved it!
Not because of the special effects. I expected those.
I loved it because Abrams has rebooted the franchise but did it in a consistent way by using the real Spock and Nero to change history so that the original mythos could be wiped out without changing the characters too much.
I also really liked Dr McCoy. The other actors were playing "hipper" versions of the original but Urban was channeling DeForest Kelly 100% perfectly. "Dammit Spock, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!"
Plot hole - we already know from the Kelvin's destruction that although the Narada has strong shields, a starship can crash right into it, crippling it for a while. Why can't Starfleet put a ship on remote control and just fly in into the Narada's belly to take it out? Why leave it to the Jellyfish?
I know this isn't much of a surprise, but still...
Geeks. All of you.
Garnel, who says that ship was damaged much? The reason they didn't attack anyone since then was because they were waiting for the red matter, No?
If you notice in the scene where the Kelvin's shuttlecraft are escaping there's a large area of the Narada that's is glowing as if it's on fire. The ship is also spinning and drifting, a clear sign that its main drive was down.
Hi Miri, and yeah, you're right.

Morning Five: 04.24.13 EditionPosted by rtmsf on April 24th, 2013
- As we approach the only NBA Draft early entry deadline that actually matters — in other words, the Association's draft deadline on Sunday, April 28 — several prominent underclassmen have yet to make their final decisions. With a couple of announcements expected later today, USA Today's Scott Gleeson gives a nice rundown of the pros and cons for five notable players — Louisville's Russ Smith, Creighton's Doug McDermott, Michigan State's Adreian Payne, Miami's Shane Larkin, and Baylor's Isaiah Austin. Smith, who met with his head coach to discuss his decision on Tuesday, says that he has been losing sleep over the choice to stay or leave Louisville, and that he's been riding the fence on the topic for the two weeks since the Cardinals won the national title. None of this group is a certain lottery pick, so the question of improvement next season versus a deeper draft is surely weighing heavily on all of their minds.
- There's been quite a bit of chatter this week about shortening the length of the collegiate shot clock as a mechanism to improve the offensive ineptness that has infected the game in recent seasons — those oft-derided 39-38 games and such. Andy Katz polled a number of high-major Division I coaches and found widespread support for a 30-second shot clock, which makes sense at a certain level. Coaches with generally more talent on their rosters are always going to argue for a faster pace — when things break down, pure talent and athleticism take over (similar arguments were made when the clock was reduced from 45 seconds to its current 35 in 1993). As Mike DeCourcy correctly notes, scoring has plummeted to its current level as a result of numerous factors (Louisville coach Rick Pitino has his own ideas) but the shot clock likely isn't one of them. In fact, when you mix inexperienced and, frankly, less talented players with improved defensive strategies as a result of advanced scouting techniques (Synergy and the like), what you're likely to be left with is a devil's concoction of even more sloppy play as college teams rush to get a shot at the basket. Reducing the shot clock to improve scoring sounds great in theory, but what the NCAA Rules Committee should be discussing are ways to clean up the same game that once regularly produced average team scoring in the 70s (1964-81 with no shot clock; 1987-2003 with a 45- and 35-second shot clock) rather than the 60s (2004-present).
- As everyone knows, it's transfer season, and a few notable names came across the wires yesterday.Marshall's DeAndre Kane is expected to finish his degree this summer and will use the one-year graduate transfer rule to find (presumably) a higher-major program to showcase his wares for a year. Whoever gets him will receive a high-volume shooter (26.3% of all possessions) who also brings a solid assist (42.0%) and steals (2.8%) rates to bear — quite the free agent pick-up if you ask us. Alabama's Trevor Lacey, a two-year starter at the point guard position who led the Tide in assists and was second in scoring last year, is also moving on to another as-yet-undetermined program. And then there's this story about Purdue's Sandi Marcius, who planned to graduate this summer and himself take advantage of the graduate transfer rule — that is, before he realized that the school wasn't going to pay for the $7,000 he'd need to actually finish that degree. Stay tuned on this one — it's likely to get weird.
- Let's all take a moment to welcome new Rutgers head coach Eddie Jordan back to college basketball. The longtime NBA coach hasn't really been around the sport in over two decades, but at least the former Scarlet Knight (Class of 1977) actually wants to be there in the wake of the Mike Rice fiasco. He was introduced at a news conference yesterday and seemed very excited to get started on his new five-year, $6.25 million contract. He's going to need to earn every penny of it. With massive player defections, substandard facilities, a move to the best basketball conference in America, and the stink of an amateur hour coaching fiasco still fresh on everyone's minds, the rebuild at Rutgers will be monumental.
- This is a neat story by Eric Prisbell at USA Today about recruiting wunderkind Alex Kline, the now-18-year old who goes by the handle @therecruitscoop on Twitter and who those of us who follow such things have known about for a few years now. As it turns out, Kline is now finishing up his freshman year at Syracuse and his life has become a whirlwind of tips, networking, writing, and homework assignments mixed in with a little bit of fun now and again. Perhaps the most compelling part of his story, though, is his founding of the Mary Kline Classic, a prep all-star event each spring that raises money for cancer research and honors the life of his mother, who passed away from a brain tumor when he was only 10 years old. Keep on keepin' on, Alex, you're already doing great things, but it's obvious much, much more is coming.

After my previous post about Android saving power with Linux governor tweaking, I did some governor tweak testing on my netbook with a tweaked phoronix test suide (pts) and came up with these results:
The first two show the power usage in Watts, the third shows the frequencies used during the test.
The last two tests definitely seem off. I don't know why this happened but their numbers are certainly not to be relied upon, as you can see especially in the first and last graph - they stop way too early. But maybe ondemand with up 99 and powersave bias of 100 really is the ideal solution?
But I do think it's pretty reliable that the tuned ondemand (up 98, powersave bias 50) and conservative tuned (up 98, down 95, step 20) have very good results. And I mean 3.3 % difference in average power consumption just with a different scheduler is something to have or not to have.
I first idled for 15 seconds, then with mplayer played 15 seconds 720p video with xv, no sound, then with vaapi, no sound. Then I idled another 15 seconds with display off. What pts does during the test is determined only by this file: ~/.phoronix-test-suite/installed-tests/battery-power-usage/battery-power-usage.
Just check out the scripts I posted in my other entry, they should work out of the box. And then run the phoronix battery test with different options. Make sure to post your results! :)

Saudi launches first agri media award
Riyadh, January 2, 2013
Saudi Arabia has launched the first Agricultural Media Award, which initiatives and activities that serve sustainable agricultural development and food security in the kingdom.
The award will also support the role of the press in the adoption of vital agricultural issues, foster a culture of media competition to raise and discuss agricultural issues objectively and constructively, and honour outstanding journalists who have made significant contributions in these areas.
The national award in the field of specialized agricultural information award is fully supported by the Ministry of Agriculture and sponsored and financed by ARASCO through a strategic partnership with the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce via a range of direct programs and events.
The Agricultural Media Award Committee announced the details, conditions and criteria of the award in its final form during a press conference held at Novotel Hotel in Riyadh.
Dr Mohammad Sulaiman, dean of Community College at the University of Harimlae and chairman of the award committee, said that the award plays in supporting and activating development strategies in order to realize sustainable food resources and to conserve water, plant, animal and environment resources.
"The participants comprise two categories: Corporate Media and Individual Media. The Corporate Media category will honor media organizations that have a positive impact in the field of agriculture at the socioeconomic level, and the Individual Media will honor three winners for the best media work that focuses on the journalist's skills in the areas of journalist investigation, journalist dialogue and press articles," he said.
Dr Sulaiman reiterated that the Committee will start receiving candidate journalist works from January until late December, and the awarding ceremony shall honor the winners at a later stage.
He pointed out that the monetary value of the award amounts to SR100,000 ($26,660), of which SR50,000 goes to the first winner, SR30,000 to the second winner and SR20,000 to the third winner.
The chairman of the Agricultural Media Award Committee talked about the award's evaluation criteria, and reflected on devising ways to enhance the knowledge of the community in the agricultural sector and serious impacts of ignoring the threats, the beauty of style, language integrity and smooth presentation, as well as the degree of press professionalism and the response of the public and the state officials to competitive works with a commitment to a high level of documentation and scientific approach.
Dr Sulaiman expressed his hope that the Agricultural Media Award will contribute to establishing its mission in supporting the agricultural media creativity to sustain agricultural activity and develop supportive policies for the management and maintenance of agricultural, animal and food resources in Saudi Arabia.
He stated that the award lays the foundation for a constructive partnership between the Ministry of Agriculture, local media and the private sector.
He added that the award will also help agricultural activity to grow and develop, by motivating journalists to employ their potential for creativity and prominence that best serve this sector, forming community awareness on its issues, concerns and pressing needs, and honoring creative journalists and rewarding them in an annual event dedicated to the Award.
Dr Sulaiman added that the award serves as a channel of communication between the media, the Ministry of Agriculture and the private agricultural sector to better serve the agricultural issues, policies and strategies adopted by the state and to raise the public awareness on the importance of these issues.
"The national press is a genuine partner in addressing the issues of concern to the community, highlighting the obstacles and problems that hinder its inception, and forging a clear vision to help find effective solutions to similar problems," he said.
"Based on this perspective, we believe that the Award would strengthen this partnership, encourage journalists to play a bigger role in agricultural issues and present them to the public in a way that encourages their interaction, suggest successful projects and solutions that sustain food resources and shed the light on the state's role in this field and other agricultural fields that have direct impact on people's lives.," he concluded. – TradeArabia News Service

Is he in this one too?
Actually…he's not. But it seems like he's in every other movie, doesn't it?
Not complaining. Having said that, the one movie he SHOULD be in is still up in the air. Funding is apparently the obstacle. Here's an idea: tell Mike Myers to shove his next film up his ass and make Arrested Development instead!
Check out my honey Jason Bateman at the Step Brothers premiere last night with a little bit of grizzle and a smattering of freckles and no hair plugs and … why isn't he on my Freebie Five???

Material handling orders grow, continues to accelerate, report finds
Material handling equipment new orders grew 7.2% in 2012 and are expected to grow between 5.0% to 6.0% in 2013 and 10.0% or more in 2014, according to the latest Material Handling Equipment Manufacturing Forecast (MHEM) released by MHI.
"As the current US economic expansion shifts from capital expenditure driven to consumer-led, we anticipate modest, positive MHEM growth for 2013. Housing, automotive rebounds and expansion in industrial, warehouse and commercial buildings (over 69% from 2014 to 2018) will contribute substantially to improved MHEM growth for 2014 and beyond," said Hal Vandiver, MHI executive consultant.
In addition, material handling equipment shipments grew 9.8% in 2012 and are projected to grow 3.5% in 2013 and 9.1% in 2014. Domestic demand (shipments plus imports less exports) grew 10.9% in 2012 and is estimated to grow 3.4% in 2013 and just over 9.5% in 2014.
MHEM trade growth slowed by more than 50.0% in 2012 reflecting reduced U.S. demand and serious problems in foreign markets. Import growth in 2012 was 17.9%, down from 37.7% in 2011. Export growth was 11.2% in 2012, down from 26.2% in 2011. MHEM imports and exports are expected to slow dramatically in 2013 and rebound modestly beginning mid-2014.
The MHEM forecast of material handling equipment manufacturing is released each quarter by MHI and looks 12 to 18 months forward to anticipate changes in the material handling and logistics marketplace.

"I NEVER quite understood Rex, but I think that's why I was in love with him. I think the minute you understand somebody you have had it."
That was silent screen actress Alice Terry, remarking on her long marriage to the great director Rex Ingram.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (July 31, 2013) – ETSU head football coach Carl Torbush announced Wednesday that he has added Kingsport native and former University of Tennessee defensive back Teddy Gaines to his assistant coaching staff.
Gaines, who was a star at Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport, brings a wealth of both coaching and playing experience to the Buccaneers' coaching staff, along with significant local recruiting ties.
"Teddy Gaines is a great young football coach, who comes to us with strong recommendations from every head coach he's ever worked under," Torbush said. "I had the opportunity to recruit Teddy during my time at North Carolina, and it came down to UNC or Tennessee. He chose Tennessee, but we maintained a relationship over all these years, and I've watched him grow as a player, as a young man, and as a coach during that time.
"He will do a tremendous job working with our secondary and special teams, and he will be a huge part of our recruiting efforts both inside Tennessee and in the surrounding states. I know he's excited about this opportunity to be a Buccaneer, and we believe he will be a huge asset to our program."
Gaines said he's ready to get to work making ETSU a championship program.
"I am very honored and grateful to be hired as an assistant football coach at ETSU," said Gaines, who played under head coach Phillip Fulmer at Tennessee, won a national title with the Volunteers in 1998, and went on to a career in the NFL. "I'm very excited about the opportunity to work for Coach Torbush, and I look forward to the challenge of helping ETSU become a very competitive and championship level football program."
Most recently Gaines served as an assistant coach at Tusculum College, directing the team's defensive back and passing defense coordinator. Prior to Tusculum, Gaines served as defensive backs coach and special teams' coordinator at Maryville College. The Scots' posted a 6-4 overall record, including a 5-2 mark in league play to capture a share of the USA South Athletic Conference championship, the program's first league title since 1931. Gaines mentored a pair of all-conference standouts in Jacob Berwind and Kane Crowell as Maryville boasted the top secondary in the USA South. The Scots led the league in pass efficiency defense (92.91), total defense (340.3 ypg), oring defense (21.6 ppg), and pass defense (149.9 ypg).
From 2008-2011 he served as the defensive back coach and special teams coordinator at South Atlantic Conference member Brevard College. His Tornado secondary hauled in 11 interceptions in 2011, pacing the SAC in total picks. On three occasions his defensive backs earned all-conference honors including two-time honoree Michael Gist in 2009 and 2011
In his second year on the Brevard staff, the 2010 Tornados enjoyed a six-win improvement by posting a 7-4 record and capturing the program's best finish in the league. Prior to Brevard, Gaines was a defensive assistant at Chattanooga in 2008, where he served as the strong side linebacker coach.
He was a standout student-athlete at the University of Tennessee and was a top contributor in the Vols' secondary. A member of the 1998 National Championship Tennessee squad, Teddy was drafted in the seventh round of the 2002 National Football League Draft. He enjoyed stints with the San Francisco 49ers and the Chicago Bears. He also gained playing experience with the NFL Europe's Rhein Fire in Germany and the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League.
Gaines was a three-year starter and All-State defensive back at Dobyns-Bennett High School for prep coach Graham Clark. The two-time All-Big East selection was selected to play in the Tennessee-Kentucky all-star game. During his prep career, he recorded five interceptions, while blocking five field goals and five punts. As senior, he led the Indians to an 11-2 record and a semifinal berth in the state playoffs. He also shined at receiver, where he caught 42 passes for 888 yards and 12 touchdowns as a senior.
He completed his Bachelor of Arts degree in history at Tennessee in 2004 and began a career in education as he gained experience in Knoxville, Cleveland and Kingsport as an educator and coach.

[The City Nestled Among the Hills]
Description: This picture was taken from East Mountain, from a site above and left (south) of the former Chautauqua (1905-1912.) Note the Crazy Water Hotel at the left edge of the picture (which opened in 1927 on the corner of North Oak and NW 3rd Streets.) Note also the Nazareth Hospital built by the Crazy Corporation, behind and right of the Crazy. The back of the "WELCOME" (1921 vintage) sign on the south end of this mountain and facing south, is at the immediate middle foreground. This sign was the world's largest non-commercial electric lighted sign when it was donated to the city in 1922 following a Rotary Club of Texas convention. The sign is reputed by local folklore to be the inspiration for the more publicized "HOLLYWOOD" sign in Los Angeles, California. It is much larger than the photograph suggests. Lesser known sites in the picture are The Hawthorn Drinking Pavilion one block north (right) of Nazareth Hospital and the Crazy Theater, across Oak Avenue, at the right and front of the Crazy.
