PFT: Cam passes up chance to retort to Alex

A former NFL running back who spent 11 seasons in the game has provided some intriguing insights into the life of a former football player.? Michael Pittman, who played 11 seasons with the Cardinals, Buccaneers, and Broncos, told WDAE radio in Tampa that he suffered seven or eight concussions during his career.

?Just like the former players that are suing the NFL, I suffer from the same symptoms of course,? Pittman said, via JoeBucsFan.com.? ?The headaches, memory loss, vision loss. . . .? Sometimes you get depressed.? And there?s some times you really can?t control it, just the way you feel, your emotions.?

Pittman admitted that, at one point, he needed to see a psychiatrist ? and to his credit he had no qualms talking about a health condition that, despite the inexplicable social stigma, is no different than having a broken bone.

Pittman said that people criticizing the players who are suing the league don?t understand what the former players are going through.? ?The NFL needs to make these players that [are] playing more aware of the long-term effects of playing,? Pittman said.? ?Because when I was playing, they didn?t do that.?

He added that, if he knew more during his career the long-term effects of concussions, Pittman may have retired after only two of three.? He said he hasn?t sued yet, but he may.? (The clock is ticking on the statute of limitations; the NFL likely would argue it already has expired, even if he sued today.)

Pittman, like many former players, is concerned about how he?ll feel in his 50s, given that he?s currently having issues at only the age of 36.

Regardless of whether he chooses to join in the concussion lawsuit, here?s hoping Pittman and all other former players suffering from the effects of concussions get the medical assistance they need to lead long and normal lives.

Report: Iran smuggles arms, explosives on passenger jets

By msnbc.com staff

Iran?s government has repeatedly used commercial aircraft to smuggle weapons and explosives to Syria and Lebanon, the German broadcaster ZDF reported Wednesday.

ZDF, citing Western security sources and unspecified information it said it had obtained, reported that? Iran Air and Yas Air, both based in Iran, have repeatedly used aircraft designated as passenger planes to transport weapons to Damascus and Beirut. ?It was not clear from the report what type of weaponry was involved.

ZDF, a content partner of NBC News, said the weapons were supposedly ordered by Iran?s Revolutionary Guard, which supports the regime of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and the terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon.

U.S. officials have long accused Tehran of using commercial aircraft to smuggle weapons to Hezbollah.?

ZDF noted that there had been one previous shipment of arms seized aboard an Iranian airliner. In March 2011, it said, Turkish security officials in Diyabarkier found weapons and explosives on board a Yas Air passenger jet. The freight was supposedly scheduled to be shipped to Damascus.

Facebook allowed to triple size of its HQ, pays $10 million for the privilege

Swollen with cash following its IPO, Facebook is looking to expand its headquarters in Menlo Park. Its plan to triple its workforce there from 2,200 to 6,600 people was approved by local officials last night, removing the previous cap that allowed a maximum of 3,600 messy, resource-consuming humans. In lieu of the added burden on the city, Facebook will have to contribute $850,000 per year for ten years, plus a one-time payment of $1,000,000. The start of a surge towards greater products and profits, or the beginning of a complacent corporate decline? We'll let the stock market decide.

Divorce to Remarriage: Your Step by Step Guide to Step-Parenting ...

As many of you are preparing to re-marry, you probably have expectations of what life will be like with your new spouse and new family. You?re thinking something along the lines of ?happily ever after? perhaps? Sorry to burst your bubble but let?s take time out for a quick reality check.

People rarely have a clue what a relationship with a step-child will be like. It?s not because we?re stupid. It?s just that there aren?t any guide books for step families. We just assume it?s ok to play by biological family rules. This leads to many false assumptions. Today, I?d like to look at some of the most common and present a more realistic view of what you?re likely to experience.

1. I get along fine with the children now, so our relationship will only improve once I?m married to their parent.

• Children view their relationship with you VERY differently once you are married to their parent. Things are permanent now. Any hopes they may have been holding onto about mom and dad reconciling are dead, and you?re a part of that death. This quite obviously can cause serious resentment.

2. The kids are only over every other weekend. That shouldn?t cause much of a disruption to our home life.

• Just because a child is over every other weekend, doesn?t mean they can?t wreak havoc on your home and life. I receive tons of questions from fledgling step-parents struggling with what to do to manage what they view as the ?disruption? to their lives when the kids come to visit. It?s not that they don?t like the kids, it?s just that their usual schedule gets turned topsy turvy.

3. My partner loves me, so naturally the kids will too.

• Nowhere does it say that just because a child?s parent loves you, that they have to. Many kids have the opinion that they already have 2 parents and they aren?t interested in having any more. Your goal should be for a civil, friendly relationship rather than one full of love. If you get love, great! But, don?t count on it.

4. I?m an adult? How tough can it be to win a kid over?

• It can be VERY difficult to ?win over? a step-child. The problem is your attitude. It?s really a manipulative one. Rather than ?win? them over, the focus needs to be on being present in their lives and slowly trying to build a relationship with them.

5. I won?t have to be the ?bad guy? with these kids. My spouse will take care of all the discipline.

• While this SHOULD be the way things go, it rarely does. Most of the time single parents are so happy to have another adult in the house, they expect that person to step in and share the responsibility of discipline.

6. My new spouse will make sure the kids treat me with respect.

• This is another one that SHOULD happen, but unfortunately a lot of parents are still wrestling with a sense of guilt over breaking up the family. The guilt continues as the parent feels that the children are being forced into a new and different family. A lot of times this guilt plays out by parents not requiring their children to treat the new member of the family (that would be you, by the way) with the respect they deserve.

There are a lot of factors that determine what your relationship with your step-child will look like. Today we looked at the most typical of reactions. Want to find out other differences to expect in a remarriage?

Lebanese hostages in Syria could ignite tensions

BEIRUT (AP) ? The mysterious case of 11 Lebanese Shiites who were taken hostage in Syria last week is raising fears of renewed street battles in Beirut as Lebanon increasingly gets drawn into the swirling chaos next door.

The Syrian crisis already has spilled across the border into Lebanon over the past three weeks, sparking deadly violence in a country that remains deeply divided over the 15-month-old uprising against Syrian President Bashar Assad.

But the Shiites' abduction is potentially explosive, in part because it enflames Lebanon's fragile Sunni-Shiite fault line. It could also spark retaliatory attacks against the thousands of Syrians in Lebanon.

In recent days, members of Lebanon's powerful Shiite militant group, Hezbollah, have deployed at the entrances of Beirut's southern suburbs, a heavily Shiite area, to prevent any moves by angry protesters.

Hezbollah is a staunch ally of the Syrian regime, where a predominantly Sunni uprising is trying to oust the Assad family dynasty. The families of the kidnapped Shiites blame Syria's Sunni rebels for abducting the men.

"The kidnapping is clearly intended to drag Hezbollah into the Syrian quagmire," said Ziad Baalbaki, a 37-year-old Lebanese insurance broker in Beirut. "The whole thing is fishy, everyone is worried what will happen if they are not released or they turn out to be dead."

The Lebanese men were on their way back from a pilgrimage in Iran on May 22 when gunmen intercepted their buses in the northern Syrian province of Aleppo, according to the women on the pilgrimage who were allowed to go free and arrived in Lebanon hours later.

Since then, no one has claimed responsibility for the kidnapping. There were reports Friday that the hostages were about to be released, prompting a rush on the airport by family members. But the men never arrived, and it became clear the release plans went awry.

One opposition figure who said he spoke to the kidnappers told The Associated Press that the hostage takers decided not to release the men after Syrian forces began attacking rebel areas in Aleppo. Now, he said, the kidnappers are demanding Syrian authorities release 500 opposition detainees, including Lt. Col. Hussein Harmoush, one of the first officers to defect after the uprising began. Harmoush was later arrested by authorities during a special operation.

The opposition figure spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.

Lebanese officials and Syrian activists have said the men are being held in an area near the Turkish border, but there is little credible information about their fate. Shiite leaders in Lebanon have scrambled to deny various rumors that might aggravate the situation ? including reports that one of the hostages is related to Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah.

"The information indicates that they are alive and in good health. This is what the Syrian opposition and Turkish officials confirm," Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri told An-Nahar daily Monday.

Shortly after news of the abduction broke last Tuesday, dozens of angry protesters blocked major roads with burning tires and threatened to kidnap Syrians in Lebanon as a form of retaliation. The protesters went home only after Nasrallah went on TV, calling for calm and saying no Syrians in Lebanon should be harmed.

"They were kidnapped because they are Shiite, not for any other reason," said Mohammed Mir, a Lebanese Shiite. "Had they been returning from Haj in Saudi Arabia (a Sunni country) would anyone have dared to kidnap them?"

In the Bir el-Abed district south of Beirut on Monday, five female relatives of the kidnapped men sat silently inside the office of the religious tour agency Badr al-Kubra, which organized the pilgrimage.

The room was decorated with large posters of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Nasrallah, and the group's late military commander Imad Mughniyeh, who was assassinated in a car bomb in Damascus in 2008.

The women refused to be interviewed, saying they were worried it would hurt the negotiations taking place for the hostages' release.

The case has the potential to inflame sectarian tensions in Lebanon and trigger retaliatory attacks against tens of thousands of Syrians nationals now in Lebanon. The overwhelming majority of rebels fighting Assad's regime are Sunni Muslims, while Assad and the ruling elite in Syria belong to the tiny Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam.

Tensions from Syria have already spilled into Lebanon and clashes between Alawites and anti-Assad Lebanese Sunni groups in Lebanon's second largest city of Tripoli killed eight people earlier this month.

Aleppo-based activist Mohammed Saeed said the kidnappers have "impossible demands" from the regime in return for the release of the hostages, such as setting free all Aleppo province detainees and the withdrawal of the Syrian army from some areas.

"They are dealing with them (hostages) as if they are members of the regime," Saeed said.

Blair says feared fight with Britain's media barons

LONDON (Reuters) - British leaders have no choice but to court powerful media barons such as Rupert Murdoch or risk savage press attacks which are "full on, full frontal, day in, day out," former Prime Minister Tony Blair told an inquiry on Monday.

Interrupted by a heckler who accused him of being a war criminal for supporting the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Blair paused briefly before continuing calmly to justify his ties to Murdoch with whom he developed a close friendship.

An unwillingness to take on the press in Britain has been cited by many as the reason a culture of illegality and phone hacking came about at Murdoch's tabloids, but Blair told the inquiry into media standards that he had had little choice.

He could either risk being torn apart by what he once described as the "feral beasts" of the media, or use them to get his policies implemented.

He never agreed a deal with Murdoch, he said, and only became godfather to his daughter after he left office. Calling the mogul three times in the days before the invasion of Iraq was also not particularly odd, he added.

"With any of these big media groups, you fall out with them, you watch out, because it is literally relentless and unremitting once that happens," Blair, looking tanned and smart in a navy suit and white shirt, told the inquiry.

"My view is that that is what creates this situation in which these media people get a power in the system that is unhealthy. I took the strategic decision to manage this and not confront it but the power of it is indisputable."

Blair, whose reputation for obsessive media management brought him so close to Murdoch that the tycoon would joke about their love making, said he became increasingly concerned about the unhealthy relationship between the media and politicians.

Blair is the most senior politician to date to appear before Leveson, an inquiry sparked by the phone hacking revelations but which has since broadened out to show the collusion between senior politicians, media tycoons and police.

"If you fall out with the controlling element of the Daily Mail, you are then going to be subject to a huge and sustained attack," said Blair, who governed Britain from 1997 to 2007 after rebranding the Labour Party.

"Managing these forces was a major part of what you had to do and was difficult," he said.

MURDOCH

The inquiry has so far focused on the close ties between Murdoch's empire and serving ministers, helping the opposition Labour Party leader Ed Miliband to consolidate his position with attacks on current British Prime Minister David Cameron.

The appearance of Blair had been seen as a potential threat to this approach, but the former prime minister was rarely troubled by the lead lawyer at the inquiry, reminding observers how he comfortably led his party to three election victories.

Describing what it feels like when a small section of the press decide to go after you, Blair said: "It's full on, full frontal, day in, day out and that is not journalism in my view. That's an abuse of power."

Sometimes using Murdoch's first name, Blair said it had been clear that the proprietor called the shots in his media empire, and not his newspaper editors. The two later became so close that having stepped down as prime minister, Blair became a godfather to Murdoch's daughter Grace at a ceremony on the banks of the river Jordan.

"Blair led the way in having no shame about courting Murdoch," said Ivor Gaber, professor of political journalism at City university. "He set the style and the standard and if you regard Cameron as the 'heir to Blair' then it's not exactly surprising that he followed suit."

Murdoch's papers also supported Blair in his unpopular decision to join the United States in the invasion of Iraq.

With anger still running high in Britain over Blair's role in the war, a protestor broke into court 73 to harangue him, entering through a supposedly secure entrance to stand between Blair and the chairman of the inquiry, Lord Leveson.

"This man is a war criminal," he yelled, as security guards tried to drag him from the court. Another protestor hit Blair's chauffer-driven black Range Rover with an egg as he later left the court.

"I'd forgotten just what a convincing, classy liar Blair is," one observer said on Twitter. "Not so much a testimony as a masterclass."

Blair set the tone for his relationship with Britain's press when, before his first election victory in 1997, he flew to Australia in 1995 to speak before a gathering of Murdoch's executives who had previously used their British tabloids to vilify his Labour Party predecessors.

The decision, mocked by rivals as an act of homage to the all-powerful media boss, infuriated much of his left-of-centre party who saw the Australian-born tycoon as a right-winger who had helped to keep them out of power for years.

But Blair's speech received a standing ovation and Murdoch indicated for the first time that he could be willing to switch the allegiance of his newspapers to the Labour Party.

"If our flirtation is ever consummated Tony then I suspect we will end up making love like porcupines, very, very carefully," he told him.

Following yesterday's widespread reports that the "pebble blue" version of the Samsung Galaxy S III would miss the May 29/30 launch window, Samsung has released a statement offering an official explanation. Without going into specifics, the manufacturer seemed to pin the delay on quality concerns, possibly confirming recent rumors that it recently had to destroy several thousand defective pebble blue back covers.

Here's the statement in full --

“Samsung’s GALAXY S III Pebble Blue version comes with a newly invented blue colour and special hyperglaze material.

“In order to meet the highest internal quality standards and to provide the best quality GALAXY S III to customers, a short supply of Pebble Blue version is expected in some regions in the next 2-3 weeks.

“Samsung is working hard to ensure that customers will get the Pebble Blue coloured devices as soon as possible.”

We're not sure exactly how you go about "inventing" a color, but it seems that the combination of the blue shade and glossy finish presented some problems in the final few weeks of production. Hopefully the manufacturer's claims will prove accurate, and those who have their hearts set on a pebble blue will be able to get one soon enough. In the meantime, if you're after a Galaxy S III over the next few weeks, it looks like you'll be getting a marble white.

Here's How You Could Benefit From Aloe Vera Acne Treatment ...

27th May, 2012 - Posted by health news -

The treatment of acne is among the purposes of the amazing plant, aloe vera. This plant offers such a lot of benefits that you?ll find a wide variety of external and internal disorders it is excellent for. The most significant purposes of this plant include the treatment of digestive disorders, including IBS, constipation or ulcerative colitis. Aloe vera is usually an important component in a variety of diet plans, such as the candida diet, the detoxification diet or even the arthritis diet. It?s also excellent for cleansing the body and let?s bear in mind the treating of numerous skin disorders, for instance psoriasis, sunburn, bruising or even acne breakouts. In this post we?ll discuss the subject of Aloe vera acne treatment.

Aloe vera is very useful for acne cure due to its anti-septic, antibiotic and astringent characteristics. It?s actually a well liked component in a great number of acne natural skin care products, for instance skin lotions, shower gels, face masks and scrubs. You can purchase its juice or gel and in a natural supplement form. However, it is recognized that the greatest way to use this plant is in the natural and organic form. It?s all too easy to pick up an Aloe-vera plant from plant stores, supermarkets or from big garden stores. You may even buy it on the internet.

How do you use Aloe-vera for the treatment of acne if the plant is in its original form? After you have bought the plant, cut off an outside, older leaf. It?s crucial to bear in mind to chop the outer leaves first, as there is much more gel in them and the plant will even mature far better when you leave the inside, young leaves whole.

Cleanse the leaf thoroughly and putting the leaf with the flat part down, share it lengthwise. Get a smallish table spoon and scoop out the plant?s gel. Discard the outside skin. This gel can be utilized both internally and externally because it contains all of the important components which are needed for acne spots treatment.

Whether you apply the gel for internal or external treatment, you will need to blend the Aloe vera gel up to break down all the fibers in the gel. This is able to produce a gooey, consistent paste. This could be applied to your skin as a beauty mask, a lotion or perhaps you can even use it instead of your face wash to cleanse your skin.

If used internally, you will actually need to consume the gooey paste, which might not taste enjoyable firstly, however the benefits are so great that you definitely should think about having it.

The world is shrinking into a global village as the horizon of technology is a hybrid expand.It field of applied science and technology. Nanotechnology focuses on manipulating atoms individually and place them in a pattern to produce a desired structure. These are various areas which various branches colloidal science, applied physics, materials science, supramolecular chemistry, device physics and electrical and mechanical engineering, even. Nanotechnology uses two main approaches, known approaches from the top down and bottom.

In the ?top down?, the nano-objects are assembled from larger molecular objects at the atomic level without control. In the ?bottom up? approach, materials and devices are built from molecular components which constructs chemically by principles of molecular recognition. Instances of nanotechnology in recent use is the production of polymers based on molecular structure and design of the development of computer chips based on surface science. When the nanotechnology is implemented in the image analysis software, some teams are able to study the body language of the consumer and, with exact timing, precisely, one can understand the position of a person, impatience and the diversity of expressions as facial frown, smile or frown.

Human skin has the ability to transmit electrical signals that can be used as a transmission method, researchers were able to develop equipment designed with nano sensors that have the uncanny ability to ?see? and ?hear? people use them in reality. Nanotechnology could facilitate the manufacture of the new generation of computer components with massive storage capacity. In the field of IT, there is something called Moore?s Law that says, in simple terms, the processing power of the computer chip base grew exponentially at a height greater than all eighteen months from the beginning.

The evolution of computers clearly shows us that mechanical computing tradition was not completely abandoned. In 1990, engineers at the University of Minnesota, has produced an entire family of micromechanical digital logic devices, including electrostatically actuated linear sliding micron logic elements limited to a mechanical one-dimensional track, suitable for low speed radiation hard digital works in a hostile environment for electronic devices to function. Perhaps the best characterized nano-mechanical design is logical Drexler rod that is not well built so far. In this model, a sliding rod with a knob interconnects at first a second rod sliding knob at right angles. On the basis of the location of the first rod, it may be able to move or not move. The contact block is the basis for logical operations.

There has been much research goes into this for the good of humanity. In the press meet to Journal of Applied Sciences Hewlett-Packard said its scientists have invented an alternative to eventually replace transistors in computers. This was demonstrated by their Quantum Science Research group. They invented a ?crossbar latch,? which provides the signal restoration and inversion required for general computing without the need for transistors.

Pediatricians raise caution on sensory-based therapy ... - Health.am

? Children's Health ? May 28, 2012

Occupational therapy for kids who are over- or under-sensitive to sound, touch or other senses could help improve their symptoms - but parents and doctors should be careful not to miss an underlying disorder in those children, pediatricians said today.

So-called sensory integration therapy, in which occupational therapists use brushes, swings, balls, music and other tools to help kids adapt to external stimuli, has been controversial among doctors.

One issue is whether kids who are overly sensitive to noise, for example, actually have problems with pathways in their brains involved in processing and responding to sound - or if that?s just one sign of a developmental disorder, such as autism.

"That?s the concern?sensory processing disorder might just be a symptom of another underlying developmental problem,? said Dr. Michelle Zimmer, from Cincinnati Children?s Hospital Medical Center, who co-wrote new guidelines on sensory integration therapy for the American Academy of Pediatrics.

?It actually could be that working with an occupational therapist is helpful, but the only caution is that we would like to diagnose the other underlying disorders that go along with sensory problems,? she told Reuters Health.

Young kids who have difficulty with sensory processing may cover their ears when a bell rings or they hear loud voices, chew and suck on inedible objects or rock back and forth in their chairs, for example.

Sensory-Based Therapies
Sensory-based approaches to treating Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) concentrate on correcting or improving the body?s abnormal response to external stimuli.

We all experience the world through our senses- sight, smell, touch, taste and sound. We interpret and react to our surroundings based on information the brain receives from our eyes, nose, skin, tongue, and ears. For the entire time we are awake, these varied sensory organs are continuously sending information to the brain. For those of us without an ASD, the brain filters this constant flow of incoming sensory messages and is able to ignore those that are not relevant at the time.

For example, as I sit at my computer and type, I am only aware of the words appearing on the screen and my fingertips stroking the keys on the keyboard. However, if I allow myself to focus on all incoming sensory messages, I can also hear typing sounds from my colleague?s office, a vehicle passing by, and the low hum of the office heater. I can see the stacks of papers piled on my desk and streaks of sunlight coming through the window blinds. I can feel my clothing against my skin, and even taste the last drops of my morning coffee. Fortunately, for most the day, I am completely unaware of these other sources of sensory information. I am able to concentrate just on the work in front of me.

For many individuals with an ASD, however, this necessary filtering of unimportant sensory input doesn?t happen. The streaks of light coming through the window blinds may be mesmerizing, while the low hum of the heater may be unbearably irritating. This inability to block out normal ?background? stimuli sometimes produces a state of ?sensory overload? in individuals with an ASD, disrupting their ability to focus and concentrate, which are necessary skills for learning and communicating. The difficulty is not with one specific sense, but with how multiple senses are experienced all at once.

There are a variety of therapies that attempt to help individuals with ASDs by addressing not only these sensory issues, but the impact they have on the brain. Two of the most well known of these are Sensory Integration Therapy and Auditory Integration Therapy.

Children with a range of developmental disorders - including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, anxiety and autism spectrum disorders - may have those types of symptoms, according to the recommendations published in Pediatrics.

But sensory-related problems don?t tend to show up on their own as isolated issues, Zimmer said.

?There are no studies out there that really show that there?s such a thing as a stand-alone diagnosis of a sensory processing disorder,? she said.

For that reason, the recommendations aimed at pediatricians include not using sensory processing disorder as its own diagnosis, but instead evaluating kids for underlying developmental problems.

Sensory-based Treatment for Adults With Developmental Disabilities

In recent years there has been increased focus on sensory-based and sensory-integrative treatment with adults with developmental disabilities, similar in theory and practice to that for children. (Pfieffer and Kinnealey, 2005) Specific assessments have been developed with the adult population in mind. (e.g., Hanschu and Reisman, 1992)

Adults with profound mental retardation may have problems with severe self-injurious behavior (SIB). In some cases, sensory-based treatment has been found to be effective in reducing this problem. (Reisman, 1992) In other cases, sensory-based treatment has reduced agitation and promoted relaxation in adult clients with developmental disabilities (DD).

In one facility in Minnesota, the success of a sensory-based treatment approach in reducing problem behaviors led to widespread support of the program by the majority of the staff, not just the therapists. (Hanschu, 1998)

In general, sensory-based treatment is most effective when it is done frequently and consistently. (Reisman, 1992) This suggests that frequent access to sensory equipment or modalities is helpful. It is essential as well that all staff be provided education and understand the nature of sensory-based treatment.

By Jeanne Shepard

They also call for talking to families about the limited evidence supporting therapy focusing on sensory processing.

Roseann Schaaf, an occupational therapist from Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, said she agrees there shouldn?t be a separate diagnosis for sensory processing disorder, but said sensory-related treatment can still be a useful part of therapy for kids with other underlying issues.

The recommendation paper ?does not consider that the intervention is individually tailored to each child?s needs,? Schaaf, who has studied sensory problems and their treatment, told Reuters Health in an email.

?Unfortunately, it is likely that pediatricians will interpret this article to mean that occupational therapy using sensory integration is not helpful?when in fact, the evidence is mounting that it is helpful for many children,? she concluded.

Rumor: Facebook To Buy Opera Software To Join Browser Wars

Okay take this with some skepticism as there is no official confirmation about this yet, and the only source for the article is an unnamed one. According to web magazine Pocket-Lint, Facebook is considering buying the Norwegian company Opera Software, which developers the Opera web browser for various platforms.

Opera Software, which had a very strong q1 financially is known for the Opera desktop browser, one the two major browsers that is not backed by a multi-billion Dollar company (the other is Mozilla), the mobile versions of the browser. Recently, the company has also made further investments in the advertisement space, improving the impressions served to 86 billion in the first quarter of 2012.

A Facebook owned Opera browser would provide Facebook with additional revenue possibilities, and save it from creating a browser of their own. And Opera?s experience in the mobile market could improve Facebook?s presence here, both app-wise but also advertising-wise.

For Opera it could mean additional manpower and development funds to develop the browsers in a faster pace.

It is the users that may have issues with the acquisition, if the rumor should turn out to be true, considering that a Facebook browser would certainly make some changes that the devoted community may not be pleased with at all. One change could be the tight integration with Facebook, another that certain features of the browser may be modified or retired completely to streamline it further.

So how realistic is the rumor? Opera Software is a public company with a revenue of about 160 million in the last four quarters. It is definitely a possibility that Facebook would make an offer for the company if it is really interested in getting into the browser market. It is actually the only company with a market share of more than 1% that is available at all, as the top 4 remaining companies are owned by Microsoft, Apple, Google and Mozilla, who all would not even think of selling their browser to Facebook.

For now I?d say it is unlikely that Facebook will buy Opera Software, and the main reason for that is that the source has not been mentioned. For all I know, this could be some form of link-baiting. What is your take?

Russia claims new missile can overcome missile defenses

Russia says it conducted a successful test of a new missile that is meant to outwit the NATO antimissile shield and has a maximum range of 10,000 miles.

By Fred Weir,?Correspondent / May 24, 2012

Within days of NATO's announcement that its European antimissile shield is now "provisionally operational," Russia has claimed to have tested a new type of intercontinental missile that can outwit the new missile defenses.

The new missile, which some Russian media said is named the "Avante-garde," was successfully fired on Wednesday from Plesetsk cosmodrome in northwestern Russia, and reportedly hit its target on the Kamchatka Peninsula, several thousand miles away, a few minutes later. The Russian Defense Ministry says the new weapon has a maximum range of about 10,000 miles and can carry a bigger payload than any previous Russian missile.

"This new intercontinental ballistic missile is intended to strengthen the capabilities of Russia's Strategic Missile Forces, including its capabilities for overcoming antimissile defenses," Defense Ministry spokesman Vadim Koval told journalists.

"The missile was built with maximum use of existing components with new elements and technologies developed during the production of fifth-generation missile systems, in order to shorten its development time," he added.

Analysts say the new missile is probably a modification of the Topol-M, a modern, mobile ICBM that is well known in the West and is accounted for under the terms of the new START accord signed by US and Russian leaders two years ago. That treaty stipulates that both sides have the right to modernize their missile delivery systems as long as they remain under a ceiling of 1,550 deployed strategic warheads.

The new missile reportedly can boost into space faster than previous models thanks to a powerful new fuel, which would presumably enable it to outrun any ground-launched interceptors from NATO's European antimissile system.

The independent Interfax agency quoted a retired Russian missile commander, Gen. Viktor Yesin, as saying the new weapon was specifically designed as part of Russia's efforts to counter NATO's antimissile system, which is slated to become fully operational by 2018, as well as other regional shields being contemplated by the Pentagon.

"This is one of the technical means Russia?s political and military leadership has developed in response to America?s global system of missile defense," Yesin was quoted as saying.

Another potential Russian reaction is to deploy short range Iskander-M ground-to-ground missiles in the Russian Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad and around Russia's periphery, in order to be able to strike quickly against US missile defense systems.

Earlier this month, Russia's top general, Nikolai Makarov, even threatened to launch a preemptive strike against NATO's antimissile shield if it appears to undermine Russia's strategic nuclear deterrent.

Russian press reports suggest that the new missile is not only faster in the boost-phase than all its predecessors, but that it may also be able to maneuver during its flight in order to baffle enemy radars and dodge interceptors.

Media reports also say that a previous attempt to test the new missile on Sept. 27 failed, when it suffered an undisclosed malfunction and crashed just 10 miles from its launch site.

Tandy hoping Ospreys can again be spoil sports

Tandy hoping Ospreys can again be spoil sports

By Barry Coughlan

Saturday, May 26, 2012

Joe Schmidt and Leo Cullen anticipate a tough day at the office in tomorrow?s RaboDirect Pro12 final at the RDS, and Ospreys coach Steve Tandy hopes to oblige.

Leinster go into the game as Heineken Cup champions and overwhelming favourites, but Tandy figures they?ll have to work overtime to secure victory against his trophy-hungry side.

Cullen leads a team that includes 13 internationals, but one without talisman Sean O?Brien and possibly Cian Healy, both of whom are injured, and the skipper is worried when noting that the Ospreys did a RaboDirect double over them this season and snatched the title from under their noses at the RDS a couple of seasons ago.

Tandy described it as "a massive occasion for Ospreys rugby". Leinster, he said, had proved themselves one of the greatest teams ever in European rugby and insisted that recent results would count for nothing.

"It?s all about the day and who handles the pressure the best. We know that we have to improve in certain areas, we were guilty of putting ourselves under unnecessary pressure in the Munster match and that meant we had to rely too heavily on our defence. We don?t want to have to do that on Sunday, we want to try and be more composed and look to dictate territory better.

"We will obviously do our homework and analysis on them but the key thing for us is about our own performance. We need to prepare properly, be thorough, and make sure we are accurate in everything we do. We have to be clinical. If we focus on our own game and the areas that we can control, then we?ll be able to compete and we?ll be in the game.

"It?s going to be a great day, there?s a big Osprey support travelling out to back the cause and we want to put on the kind of performance that will make them proud of the team."

Seeking the Most beneficial Forex Trading Program | ApostolicCM ...

Precisely what is Foreign exchange?

Foreign exchange means forex, which can be a major international monetary marketplace in which stock markets are usually traded. This currency exchange market started out in the 70s and it is now the most significant financial market in the world, with an regular everyday return associated with US$1.Being unfaithful billion. That is certainly thirty times the volume of every day action about all the People stock markets.

Every Foreign exchange trading consists of concurrently purchasing one currency exchange and offering one more. For example, if you find that the particular Euro will certainly rise compared to your buck, youd probably place a new Euro/Dollar industry. The actual forex trading system would certainly after that purchase the Pound and then sell on an equivalent level of the actual Money. Then, if you want to shut your role, you would spot any Dollar/Euro buy and sell. This might buy the Buck then sell the actual Dinar. If your Euro had gone up contrary to the Greenback, youd earn profits, but when it acquired fallen compared to the particular Dollar youd produce a loss.

Exactly what foreign currencies are dealt?

Most of the earths stock markets are available to industry, nevertheless the majority of industry action requires a gaggle of main values, including the US Buck, the Dinar, the Yen, the actual Switzerland Franc and also Sterling.

Wheres the Forex market situated?

In contrast to many financial markets worldwide, Forex trading just isnt centralized with an swap. Alternatively that operates on a basis known as the interbank market or older the Counter (Non-prescription). As each Forex trading involves two reciprocal investments (buy one forex and then sell an additional), these are carried out digitally with any kind of dealer who is willing to recognize your industry.

Who is able to buy and sell within the Foreign exchange?

Typically, entry to currency trading had been restricted to banking organisations, such as main finance institutions, industrial financial institutions along with purchase finance institutions. For this reason this is run on something referred to as the interbank marketplace.

However, the quantity of neo lender members inside Forex market, such as international businesses, cash supervisors, funds agents and private speculators, is increasing quickly. And thanks to the actual fairly tiny amount of funds forced to open up an investing consideration (usually $500) Foreign exchange can be checking in order to a lot more people continuously. In case you are above Eighteen, have internet connection your enough cash to open a trading account, the field of Currency trading will be accessible to you.

Just when was forex available for investing?

As Forex doesnt can be found inside a standard exchange, its the only Round-the-clock monetary market place in the world. Currency trading will begin every single day in Sydney then goes worldwide because significant global real estate markets inside Tokyo, Birmingham as well as The big apple wide open.

To put it differently, theres always traders someplace on the planet who will be make an effort to investing foreign currencies. Which means you will make positions and reply to significant interpersonal, financial along with political occasions day and nite. Nevertheless, you will find theres quick sleep interval through shut associated with exchanging about the American economic market in Feb 5th until buying and selling commences in Australia in Monday early morning.

Consequently agents have established the key of border exchanging. In effect they enable individuals to business $100,000 prevents involving forex if they can produce an element of stability against potential losses.

For instance, they could let people to trade on the edge regarding 1% (in contrast, conventional investment brokers frequently demand a 50% border). Because of this theyre able to buy and sell $100,1000 hindrances, offered his or her bank account consists of at the very least $100,1000 x 1% Equals $1000. $ 1000 can protect your agent towards any probable losses that the buyer makes (foreign currency valuations almost never change simply by more than 1% in one evening). If a buyers account will be diminished by cutbacks (my spouse and i.electronic. reducing the brokers security under acceptable amounts), the particular agent will certainly close all deals as well as call for an additional downpayment prior to more trades can be created.

Investing edge lets people to manage vast amounts of currency wiith relatively small amounts of cash (typically 55, A hundred or even 190 times the amount of capital that they have put in). This can lead to enormous increases, however increases the chance of dropping most or even your entire investment finance.

Just how much does it charge?

Because of the investing edge offered by nearly all Forex brokers, one can possibly open a free account and obtain started trading having a fairly little funds.

Forex trading positions come in lots of $100,000. Nevertheless, nearly all Forexs brokes gives you a new leverage ratio up to Hundred:One, meaning that you have the power to manage a $100,000 do business with as little as $1000 inside your account. A number of brokers provides power involving 200:1 as well as 400:A single, that enables that you begin with as little as $500 or $250 within your account.

However, make sure you understand that although higher leverage permits you to increase your potential profit, in addition, it boosts the chance element. The better the leverage proportion, the smaller buying and selling fluctuation which will be necessary to obliterate your own exchanging money. Thus find the amount of influence the application of properly.
For brand spanking new traders, it may be best to start out with influence regarding 30:One particular as well as Fifty:A single. This may raise the sum that you need to open a merchant account, nonetheless it will reduce the chance of experiencing your entire buying and selling cash disappear due to a modest transfer of the need for a new foreign currency.
