LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Ticketmaster, often the target of fan anger when tickets to popular concerts get sold out in seconds, is removing an annoyance that can slow down the buying process: the jumble of letters that people need to decipher known as "CAPTCHA."

The puzzles provided by Google Inc. are meant to deter automated systems known as "bots" from purchasing large numbers of tickets the instant they go on sale. Scalpers have been known to employ bots to acquire tickets, which they resell for a profit.

CAPTCHA, an acronym that stands for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart," was developed by Carnegie Mellon computer scientists in 2000. Google bought the company that spun off from the university in 2009 in part to help it digitize books.

Since only humans, not computers, can decipher CAPTCHA codes, websites install the systems to keep tickets out of the hands of large-scale scalpers. In the fight against more sophisticated bot operators, CAPTCHA codes have become increasingly more difficult ? so difficult that the puzzles started slowing down flesh-and-blood fans.

Take a recent CAPTCHA puzzle, which looks like a bunch of distorted letters that is meant for a buyer to interpret and type: "dsrific LCDAppr." Because of the way the letters are bent out of shape on screen, it's tough even for humans to tell if the two instances of the letter "p'' are capitalized or not.

Ticketmaster is overhauling its website to provide easier puzzles. It has run trials online, and in the next several weeks, it will replace all its online puzzles provided by Google with easier ones provided by a New York-based startup called Solve Media. On mobile devices, Ticketmaster is eliminating the need for puzzles entirely, using its own technology that verifies the user through a "push" notification to the device.

Fans using the website will now see common phrases, such as "freezing temperatures," or multiple choice questions such as "which one is a country?" followed by a drop-down menu of answers including "monster truck," ''puppy" and "Spain."

The key is that Solve Media looks for certain digital clues ? which it won't divulge ? to determine if the ticket-buyer is a person or a bot. The technology will dole out an easy puzzle to a person. It will give a bot a difficult one.

That has already made the fan experience better, says Kip Levin, Ticketmaster's executive vice president of eCommerce. The average time it takes to solve these puzzles has been halved from about 14 seconds to about 7 seconds, the company said.

"Anecdotally, we're starting to see an uptick in fan satisfaction," Levin said. "We're happy with what we've seen from a security standpoint as well."

Some puzzles are in the form of ads. A puzzle sponsored by Southwest Airlines Co. makes buyers enter the words "Bags Fly Free." One by TurboTax requires buyers to type "File Free."

Ari Jacoby, the CEO and cofounder of Solve Media, called advertising the "third leg of the stool" for his business after improving user experience and security. Because the sponsored puzzles use company slogans or product names as answers, they are "highly effective and memorable," Jacoby said.

Solve Media has more than 6,000 customers including magazine publisher Meredith Corp. and online portal AOL Inc., which is also an investor. Advertisers have included a range of major brands such as McDonald's, Toyota, CBS and Pizza Hut.

In February, Solve Media expects to serve up 200 million puzzles. Adding Ticketmaster will boost the number of possible ads it can send out. In 2011, Ticketmaster parent Live Nation Entertainment Inc. sold 141 million tickets, although it's unclear how many were purchased online.

Chesapeake's embattled CEO McClendon to retire

Embattled Chesapeake Energy Corp. founder and CEO Aubrey McClendon will retire on April 1.

McClendon will step down even though Chesapeake says a review of his business dealings has not revealed improper conduct.

Chesapeake Chairman Archie Dunham said in a statement the company needs a new leader to help develop the oil and gas assets the company has amassed under McClendon.

McClendon, 53, founded the company 24 years ago and pushed it to acquire drilling rights to huge amounts of land. The strategy landed the company promising assets ? and enormous debt. A plan that allowed McClendon to invest personally in the company's wells came under renewed scrutiny last year, and he was forced to step aside as board chairman.

Chesapeake shares rose 9 percent in after-hours trading.

The Benefits of Internet Marketing in Today's Business Landscape ...

January 29, 2013

| 6 views

Online advertising or internet marketing is the practice of promoting products or services over the internet. Customers will receive advertisements for the product or service typically via the following digital routes: search engine results, social media marketing and banner ads, blog and online classified advertisements, and spam or email advertising. The idea behind internet marketing is to send marketing messages and lure in customers without overdoing it or missing the mark. This article will explore ways in which internet marketing can hit the mark more often.

Pros and Cons of Internet Marketing

Internet Marketing, unlike marketing done on television or through newspapers, has the advantage of being instantly publishable. In addition, the information disseminated through internet marketing activities is virtually unlimited. With a newspaper or television commercial, you are oftentimes targeting one demographic in one particular place. With internet marketing, the advertisements not only hit more people but they are sometimes interactive advertisements that keep customers engaged.

To go Interactive?

More advertising is going interactive these days and it might prove harmful for business not to capitalize on this relatively new way to reach customers. What is interactive advertising? In the most basic sense, interactive advertising is marketing that interacts with the user?s motives or responses to deliver the best service in a timely fashion. For instance, sites like Amazon and Target are interactive in that both sites filter and arrange future searches based on the user?s preferences and purchasing habits. It?s often said that retaining a current customer is ten times less expensive than corralling in a new customer. This economic reality underscores the importance of streamlining interactive advertising to current customers.

One Size Fits Most

Research in internet marketing has shown that two strategies for marketing online pay off in the long run; those strategies are appealing to a specific interest and targeting individuals. The latter, also known as the one-to-one approach, is used in tandem with search engine optimization. With the one-to-one approach, advertisements are based around keywords typed into the search engine. For instance, searching for ?foot locker? might warrant an advertisement for Nike shoes. The one-to-one approach is tremendously time and cost efficient and it often furnishes the customer with just what s/he needs!

Specific Interest Marketing

Another approach, though, is appealing to a specific interest. The specific interest approach focuses on an entire demographic?s shared characteristics, like age or geography. Rather than focusing on one individual, specific interest internet marketing narrows down the advertising to a collective interest or pursuit. For example, internet browsers in Nevada might be presented with Carls Jr. fast food advertisements, which wouldn?t be useful to someone in New England. The specific interest marketing is subtly similar to one-to-one marketing except that specific interest marketing focuses on larger groups of people, perhaps without particular regard to spending habits of those people.

Future of Marketing

Internet marketing is superior to other forms of marketing because it is cost, energy, and resource efficient. There are also more options with internet marketing: internet marketing can solicit millions of people at once or only a few potential customers. With more people flocking to the internet for goods and services, now is the time to incorporate internet marketing into your business.

Sound Advice: Five Gaming Headphones Tested - HotHardware

If our eyes are the windows to the soul, then what does that make our ears? Doorways to our internal sound stage, that's what. But listen up, it doesn't matter how gnarly the guitar riffs your favorite musician is playing or how intense the in-game effects are, if your headphones aren't up to the task, then you might as well go back to the days of MIDI files Ad Lib sound cards. Second-rate headsets rob you of delightful high notes and brain rattling bass, of the subtle sound of footsteps when an opponent tries to sneak up behind you or the blast of a grenade you just hurled behind enemy lines.

Conversely, a high-quality headset doesn't just upgrade the audio, it unlocks a brand new experience. We're not being melodramatic here. For the same reasons you won't find $20 bookshelf speakers powering a home theater setup, a pair of headphones picked up from the clearance rack at K-Mart shouldn't be your go-to cans for listening to music or playing games.

What separates a premium headset from a blue light special? It's a combination of things, from well designed drivers to comfy ear cups that kiss the sides of your head with a gentle yet firm caress (now we're being melodramatic...a little). And then there's the overall feature-set, the premium extras like a noise-canceling microphone and 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound.

Unfortunately, there's only so much you can discern from a headset's spec sheet, and with so many to choose from, you'd have to invest an obscene amount of time and money auditioning each one. We don't want you to have to do that, so we went and rounded up five high-end headsets from four different manufacturers, including:

1. Corsair Vengeance 1500 7.1 Gaming Headset
2. Corsair Vengeance 2000 Wireless 7.1 Gaming Headset
3. Creative Sound Blaster Recon 3D Omega Wireless 7.1
4. Roccat Kave 5.1 Surround Sound Headset
5. Rosewill RHTS-8206 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset with Vibration

We subjected each one to a battery of tests with a focus on music performance, gaming, comfort, and unique features. On the following pages, we'll take you through a tour of each one and tell you how they fared. Are any of these headsets right for you? Let's get this party started.

Evolutionary processes too seem to enjoy encountering sun-like shapes, from sea urchins to porcupine spines to radiolarians. Maybe not ?enjoy?, perhaps, but a few of the encounters appear to have stuck around. Centrohelids were a member of the now-defunct Heliozoa? or ?Sun-animalcules?. The radial arrangement of fine rods (<em>axopods</em>) sticking out of the cell should suggest why. Heliozoa once included everything that looked sun-like, but, as often happens in the world of taxonomy, molecular sequencing put an end to that assemblage. While its constituents fell in various remote ends of the eukaryotic tree, its [arguably] flagship group remained intact, as centrohelid heliozoans ? or, to be politically correct now, centrohelids.</p> <p><img alt="" height="300" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/seq0837-1-centroh-nucleus-285x300.jpg" title="seq0837-1 centroh nucleus" width="285"/></p> <p>The entire cell is arranged radially around a central organising unit, the <em>centroplast</em>, from which the cytoskeletal framework of the axopod emerges. The cytoplasm is organised more or less concentrically ? immediately around the centroplast is an ?exclusion zone? devoid of organelles, followed by a sphere of Golgi bodies, ?curiously oriented with their maturing end (where stuff comes out of) inward rather than outward. Around the Golgi layer is the endoplasmic reticulum as well as the nucleus tucked in between the axopods. The remarkable thing here is that a ?typical? cell is oriented with the nucleus near the centre, followed by the endoplasmic reticulum and then golgi bodies, maturing side facing outwards ? since generally you?re trying to get secreted products to or near the surface. While seemingly perfectly shaped for this exact arrangement, the centrohelid cell is essentially inside-out, with the finished products delivered to the centre of the cell. But it makes sense ? at the centre, the secretion products hitch on to the axopod microtubules, and ride them outwards, to the edge of the cell body proper and beyond.</p> <p><img alt="" height="227" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/seq0840-centrohelid-axopods-300x227.jpg" title="seq0840 centrohelid axopods" width="300"/></p> <p>For the morbidly curious, most of these structures can be seen in the electron micrograph below from Bardele 1975?<em>Cell Tiss Res</em>, sectioned through the centre of the cell:</p> <p><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-579" height="300" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/Bardele-1975-Cell-Tiss-Res-centrohelid-structure-180x300.jpg" title="Bardele 1975 Cell Tiss Res centrohelid structure" width="180"/></p> <p>All this is surrounded by the <em>ectoplasm</em>, in this case a bubbly vacuolated layer where prey gets digested and savoured. And the cell body proper itself is usually covered by a myriad of spicules and plates, which can be seen in pictures here. This layer of surface decoration serves as a valuable feature for identifying species, to a certain extent. Of course, it may well be that what appear to be ?species? to our bloated macroscopic eyes may be genetically equivalent to entire families or phyla in the animal kingdom.</p> <p><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-585" height="300" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/seq0443-1-spicules-241x300.jpg" title="seq0443-1 spicules" width="241"/></p> <p>The axopods themselves carry <em>kinetosomes</em>, or little sticky-stabby organelles that act in catching prey. The long, fine axopods extend quite far beyond the cell, and wait until a hapless flagellate comes swimming by. Once triggered, the kinetosomes stick to and stun the victim, and other axopods are recruited to help hold it down. Typically, as one images, these flagellates are small, but it?s not uncommon to see centrohelids with prey larger than themselves. In some species, the individuals even join forces (ie, fuse) with their neighbours to catch large beasts! (Sakaguchi et al. 2002 <em>Eur J Protistol</em>) The victim is then delivered towards the cell body proper, where pseudopods extend and engulf the food for a gradual digestion ritual. ?The waste is delivered outwards by the same axopods, which essentially make the cell functionally bigger without having to sustain all the material in-between that clogs up valuable gas exchange surface.</p> <p><img alt="" height="300" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/seq0832-1-centroh-w-prey1-300x300.jpg" title="seq0832-1 centroh w prey" width="300"/></p> <p>Centrohelids do move about, and in plenty of different ways: many float, some seem to use their axopods to glide along the surface, some attach to the surface with one end and slide like amoebae, some others apparently roll around like balls (Zlatogursky <em>pers. comm.</em>). They reproduce by cell division, like most things, but the complete life cycle remains unknown. To my knowledge, no flagellate stages have been found, but that does not mean they don?t exist. To this day we keep on discovering new life cycle stages, even of well-known organisms, and quite often the two stages were long thought to be completely unrelated things. (a notorious case of this is in fungal taxonomy, of moulds, where the sexual and asexual fruiting bodies <em>still </em>carry separate genus and species names, primarily to deter taxonomically-challenged undergrads from pursuing mycology any further). I had the fortune to come across one in the midst of division, which you can see below:</p> <p><img alt="" height="300" src="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/ocelloid/files/2013/01/seq0422-2-centroh-dividing-244x300.jpg" title="seq0422-2 centroh dividing" width="244"/></p> <p>Not much is known about how centrohelids live (let alone their potential molecular peculiarities), and the entire centrohelid research community at the moment constitutes two or three people. The field is so tiny that it was struck badly by an unfortunate unexpected death of their recent expert, Kiril Mikrjukov. With his passing, centrohelid research essentially stopped, and much valuable insight was lost. I know of at least one person currently trying to revive the centrohelids (to our eyes; they?re doing quite fine without being noticed by us, of course), but that?s it. I?m bringing this up to point out how tiny some areas of research are, and how easily they can be devastated by the loss (or stalled by the retirement) of one or two people. And since the old apprenticeship model where a student follows their advisor?s footsteps is largely gone (in large part due to the horrid job market, rather than being replaced by something better), it?s painful to think about the wealth of knowledge and insight that gets lost without ever seeing the light of publication. Many tantalising observations never make it to publication, sometimes due to experimental difficulties, but usually due to the limits of how much one individual can really do (not much, in science?), oh, and, of course, lack of funding.

But one Florida man says he?s the rightful owner of a $2.5 million mansion because he walked through the front door and never left.</p> <p>The Orlando Sentinel reports that 23-year-old Andre ?Loki? Barbosa is a squatter trying to cash in on a Florida law which says an individual may claim ownership of a property if they have lived there for seven years.</p> <p>Sunrise real estate lawyer Gary Singer told the paper Barbosa is arguing that a Florida law known as ?adverse possession? applies to him. The foreclosed, 7,522-square-foot property has reportedly been empty for about 18 months.</p> <p>Barbosa reportedly filed his "adverse possession" paperwork in July 2012.</p> <p>And the idea of a random stranger moving into the upscale Boca Raton neighborhood isn?t sitting well with the other, paying residents.</p> <p>"This is a very upsetting thing," neighbor Lyn Houston told the Sentinel. "Last week, I went to the Bank of America and asked to see the person in charge of mortgages. I told them, 'I am prepared to buy this house.' They haven't even called me back."</p> <p>According to reports, no one saw Barbosa enter the property, so police have been unable to forcibly remove him from the 5-bedroom home. For their part, Bank of America says they are following a legal process to reclaim the property, sending a request for an eviction notice to the local court.</p> <p>"The bank is taking this situation seriously and we will work diligently to resolve this matter," BofA spokeswoman Jumana Bauwens told the paper.</p> <p>A Facebook page listed under Barbosa?s name has been chronicling the situation, referring to the disputed property as ?Templo de Kamisamar.? A recent post claiming to be from Barbosa declares, ?A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him. I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.?</p> <p>The Sentinel reports that Barbosa has also placed a notice on the front window of the property declaring himself the, "living beneficiary to the Divine Estate being superior of commerce and usury."</p><p>Source: <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/florida-squatter-claims-ownership-2-5-million-mansion-231034670.html">http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/florida-squatter-claims-ownership-2-5-million-mansion-231034670.html</a></p><p><a href="http://www.doctortri.com/user/profile/marleneha/">Jason Kidd</a> <a href="http://www.unsere-emmerichshuette.de/index.php?option=com_easygb&Itemid=41">All Star Game 2012</a> <a href="http://2wr585.com/guestbook/index.php">directv</a> <a href="http://accioba.org/guestbook.php">rashard lewis</a> <a href="http://aldoslive.com/page7.php">curacao</a> <a href="http://btech-indonesia.com/page2.php">curacao</a> <a href="http://chickenman.ch.ohost.de/burningbook/index.php">home run derby</a> </p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04330817652518543723' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04330817652518543723' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>silveiraforest77</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/florida-squatter-claims-ownership-of-25.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/florida-squatter-claims-ownership-of-25.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2013-01-25T23:06:00-08:00'>11:06 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/florida-squatter-claims-ownership-of-25.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-378971441'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to Twitter'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Twitter</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=5866376688282659008&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template' itemprop='blogPost' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <meta content='4545379809213629377' itemprop='blogId'/> <meta content='195900642758157956' itemprop='postId'/> <a name='195900642758157956'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title' itemprop='name'> <a href='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-main-of-olympics-than-having-your.html'>The main of the Olympics than having your lau ?

<span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_3">PepsiCo Inc</span> is removing a controversial chemical from its <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_0">Gatorade</span> drinks following concerns from consumers and an online <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_2">petition</span> by a Mississippi teenager.</p> <p> Gatorade said the change was not a response to the petition, although the 15-year-old girl claimed victory.</p> <p> The ingredient, brominated vegetable oil (<span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_1">BVO</span>), is a chemical containing bromine, which is found in fire retardants. Small quantities of BVO are used legally in some citrus-flavored drinks in the United States to keep the flavor evenly distributed.</p> <p> It was present in Gatorade Orange and Lemonade and other smaller flavors.</p> <p> Molly Carter, a spokeswoman for Gatorade, said BVO-free versions of those drinks will roll out across the United States in the next couple of months. She said the move to replace BVO has been in the works for some time, and was not a response to the petition by <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_5">Sarah Kavanagh</span>, the 15-year-old girl from <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1359155047_4">Hattiesburg, Mississippi</span>.</p> <p> Kavanagh started a petition on Change.org, an online petition platform, to ask PepsiCo to remove BVO from Gatorade. It received more than 200,000 signatures, and on Friday, the teenager declared victory.</p> <p> "When I went to Change.org to start my petition, I thought it might get a lot of support because no one wants to gulp down flame retardant, especially from a drink they associate with being healthy," the girl said via a statement on Change.org. "But with Gatorade being as big as they are, sometimes it was hard to know if we'd ever win."</p> <p> "This is so, so awesome," she said.</p> <p> According to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a food safety watchdog group, BVO is a "poorly tested and possibly dangerous food additive and there's no reason to use it in Gatorade or other drinks."</p> <p> "I applaud PepsiCo for doing the responsible thing and voluntarily getting it out of Gatorade without waiting for government officials to require it to do so," said Michael Jacobson, the group's executive director, in a statement.</p> <p> (Reporting by Martinne Geller in New York;

What cancerous conditions lead to what kinds of bacterial infections? If doctors knew, they could predict which patients would likely benefit from pre-treatment with certain kinds of antibiotics. A University of Colorado Cancer Center study published in this month's issue of the<em> International Journal of Infectious Diseases </em>shows the answer: <em>E. coli</em> and <em>Klebsiella pneumoniae</em> are especially prevalent in patients with lung and GI cancers, more so for <em>Klebsiella </em>if these patients have been treated previously with aminopenicillins.</p> <p>"These are really dangerous infections. You think about <em>Klebsiella</em> -- it can develop resistance really quickly. And these patients have generally been in and out of hospitals. If you can't treat the infection early, it can quickly become a serious and life threatening condition," says Andr?s Felipe Henao-Mart?nez, MD, clinical fellow in infectious diseases at the CU Cancer Center and University of Colorado Hospital.</p> <p>His study looked at 462 patients with bacterial blood stream infections who were admitted to hospitals for treatment. Of these patients, 203 had cancer and 259 did not, allowing Henao-Mart?nez and colleagues to explore the clinical and microbiological differences between these populations. Interestingly, Henao-Mart?nez could show that most infections existing in cancer patients were acquired in hospital settings and not in the community, while non-cancer patients typically had community-acquired infections.</p> <p>"Normally every hospital has a spreadsheet, an antibiogram, listing the bacteria and their rate of antibiotic resistance they've found in their patient population. But if you can predict ahead of time what bacteria you're <em>likely </em>to encounter, you can prescribe more targeted antibiotic therapy before infections create complications," Henao-Mart?nez says.</p> <p>For example, previous treatment with aminopenicillins, like amoxicillin, and the presence of cancer seemed to significantly increase the likelihood of <em>Klebsiella </em>infection .</p> <p>"<em>Klebsiella</em> <em>pneumoniae</em> is largely resistant to amoxicillin -- with the immune system compromised by the cancer and by chemotherapy, and with other bacteria largely wiped away by the amoxicillin class of antibiotics it appears that <em>Klebsiella </em>is left to flourish with little competition in patients with cancer" Henao-Mart?nez says.</p> <p>The group recently submitted a paper detailing genetic differences in outcomes in this population of bacterially infected patients admitted for treatment.</p> <p><em>Share this story on <strong>Facebook</strong>, <strong>Twitter</strong>, and <strong>Google</strong>:</em></p> <p><em>Other social bookmarking and sharing tools:</em></p> <hr /><p><strong>Story Source:</strong></p> <blockquote readability="8.50393700787"><p>The above story is reprinted from materials provided by <strong><span id="source">University of Colorado Denver</span></strong>.

The Necroa Virus update, tentatively slated for February brings a new style of play to the game, where you can branch out and reanimate the dead as a zombie like horde. </p> <blockquote> <p>The Necroa Virus is unclassified and unlike any other virus known to man. Early analysis shows that it has extreme regenerative abilities combined with aggressive metabolic demands but the majority of its genetic structure is a mystery</p> </blockquote> <p>The update will cost $1.99, but you get what looks like a lot of bang for your buck(s). Along with the new name and zombie minions comes new gameplay where humanity fights back, and new abilities that can target specific countries and areas. Of course there is more, and the update also brings new events and achievements, more languages (French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish), some UI changes and the ubiquitous performance tweaks. </p> <p>We can't wait to see what Ndemic brings to the table.

Here your company is among the biggest in the world, yet a little (but well-regarded) antivirus testing lab in Germany says your antivirus software doesn't cut the mustard. Not just once but twice in the last few months, Microsoft failed to receive certification from AV-Test.<br /> <br /><p>Joe Blackbird, Program Manager at the Center, explained in a blog post that failing this test does <em>not</em> mean Microsoft's user aren't protected.</p> <p><strong>Transparency in Testing<br /></strong>In accord with principles of the AMTSO, AV-Test makes no secret of the methodology used in conducting their ongoing certification tests. That means Blackbird could check and verify exactly why Microsoft Security Essentials didn't pass.</p> <p>The test gives equal weight to three elements of security: protection (keeping new malware from infesting a clean system), repair (clearing out malware that's already present), and usability (doing the job without slowing the system or falsely accusing valid programs). Microsoft did OK in the repair and usability areas but got just 1.5 of 6 possible points for repair.</p> <p><strong>Not Real-World?<br /></strong>Blackbird's main contention is that this test doesn't mirror the real-world experience of Microsoft's customers. According to AV-Test, Microsoft missed 28 of 100 zero-day threats. However, Microsoft's telemetry shows that "99.997 percent of our customers hit with any 0-day did not encounter the malware samples tested in this test." Note that he's not talking about 99.997 percent of <em>all</em> customers. He's saying that, of those who encountered a zero-day threat of some kind, only 0.003 percent encountered one that AV-Test actually used.</p> <p>But is this necessarily an indictment of the testing method? Let's look at it the other way around. Zero-day attacks occur constantly, in huge numbers. If the 0.003 percent represents just one customer, then 300,000 customers have encountered such an attack. Of course, the number could be larger. AV-Test picked a random sample of 100 and just happened to find 28 that Microsoft can't detect. That sounds kind of bad, doesn't it?</p> <p>Microsoft also missed 9 percent of the 216,000 files in the "recent malware" collection, but, said Blackbird, the missed samples "don't represent what our customers encounter. When we explicitly looked for these files, we could not find them on our customers' machines."</p> <p><strong>Customer-Focused Prioritization<br /></strong>"In December 2012,", Blackbird continued, "we processed 20 million new potentially malicious files, and, using telemetry and customer impact to prioritize those files, added protection that blocked 4 million different malicious files on nearly 3 million computers. Those 4 million files could have been customer-impacting if we had not prioritized them appropriately." In other words, Microsoft fared poorly in this test due to their emphasis on prioritizing files that would actively impact their customers.</p> <p>It's an interesting point, but other vendors manage to protect their users and also earn top scores from AV-Test. Bitdefender, F-Secure, and Trend Micro all received 6 of 6 possible point in the protection test.</p> <ziffshop id="38285" readability="10.0813186813"><p>I grant the point that AV-Test didn't use all of the malware actually encountered by Microsoft's users for their test. That would be impossible. Antivirus testers must do their best to use representative samples. However, my own hands-on testing with Microsoft Security Essentials, using samples that are far from zero-day, suggests that it's just not as effective as the best antivirus products.</p> <p><i>For more from Neil, follow him on Twitter @neiljrubenking.</i></p> </ziffshop><p>Source: <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ziffdavis/pcmag/~3/sqoIF8DgWIU/0,2817,2414448,00.asp">http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ziffdavis/pcmag/~3/sqoIF8DgWIU/0,2817,2414448,00.asp</a></p><p><a href="http://www.just-a-moment.de/gaeste/view.php">trayvon martin case</a> <a href="http://www.mundolavado.com/index.php/noticias-y-trabajos/trabajos-realizados/entry/detallado-especial-por-secciones-de-porche-carrera.html">affordable care act</a> <a href="http://www.neusch.eu/gb/">the line</a> <a href="http://www.nukelandcinema.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=39">us soccer</a> <a href="http://www.ofnaniseyes.nl/comment/guestbook.php">bobby brown arrested</a> <a href="http://www.olah.nl/html/guestbook/view.php">the happening</a> <a href="http://www.piedpumkin.com/guestbook/view.php">black panthers</a> </p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04330817652518543723' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/04330817652518543723' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>silveiraforest77</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/secureit-plus-2013.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/secureit-plus-2013.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2013-01-24T16:52:00-08:00'>4:52 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://samaritan-violist.blogspot.com/2013/01/secureit-plus-2013.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-378971441'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=2495059847566389465&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=2495059847566389465&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=4545379809213629377&postID=2495059847566389465&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

While autism clearly runs in some families, few inherited genetic causes have been found. A major reason is that these causes are so varied that it's hard to find enough people with a given mutation to establish a clear pattern. Researchers at Boston Children's Hospital have pinpointed several inherited mutations -- among the first to be identified -- through an unusual approach: using whole-exome sequencing to study large Middle Eastern families with autism.</p> <p>The study, published in the January 23 issue of the journal <em>Neuron</em>, also found evidence for some of the same mutations in U.S. families. It shows that a number of genes implicated in severe genetic syndromes can have milder mutations that primarily cause autism, and could broaden the number of genetic tests available to families.</p> <p>Researchers Tim Yu, MD, PhD, Maria Chahrour, PhD, and senior investigator Christopher Walsh, MD, PhD, of Boston Children's Hospital, began with three large Middle Eastern families that had two or more children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), looking for recessive mutations -- those requiring a "double hit" for the child to have an ASD.</p> <p>"Families from the U.S. are not ideal for finding inherited genetic mutations, since family sizes are often small," says Walsh, chief of Genetics at Boston Children's and an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.</p> <p>In all three families, the parents were first cousins, a common tradition in the Middle East and one that greatly facilitates the identification of inherited mutations. The researchers first used genetic mapping techniques to narrow their search to specific chromosomal locations, then sequenced the protein-coding genes in those areas (known as whole-exome sequencing).</p> <p>That turned up recessive mutations in three genes not previously known to be involved in autism, but rather in severe genetic syndromes:</p> <ul><li>Mutations in AMT, a gene classically associated with a severe metabolic syndrome known as nonketotic hyperglycinemia, marked by severe seizures and death during infancy.</li> <li>Mutations in PEX7. Typical PEX7 mutations cause rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata, a severe syndrome causing metabolic and bone abnormalities, cataracts, severe epilepsy and early death.</li> <li>Mutations in SYNE1, a gene associated with brain malformation, severe motor and muscle problems, and possibly bipolar psychiatric disease.</li> </ul><p>The severe syndromes linked to these genes often include autistic behavior or intellectual disability, but not as the primary symptom. Interestingly, the milder mutations discovered in these families seemed to cause disease that is more brain-specific.</p> <p>"This is the first time these genes have been associated with autism," says Chahrour, who shares first authorship of the study with Yu. "The AMT and PEX7 mutations weren't picked up by standard tests for metabolic disorders, but when you're able to sequence the entire exome, you can find them."</p> <p>These findings inspired the team to look for other metabolic and other genetic syndromes affecting cognition and behavior with milder forms showing up simply as autism. They screened 163 Middle Eastern families with autism for mutations in 70 genes associated with these syndromes, using a whole-exome approach but analyzing only the 70 genes of interest.</p> <p>This approach turned up several additional families with ASD mutations, including:</p> <ul><li>An additional family with a recessive mutation in AMT</li> <li>Two families with recessive mutations in VPS13B (known to cause Cohen syndrome, which includes intellectual disability, obesity, vision and joint problems, and small head size)</li> <li>A family with a recessive mutation in POMGNT1 (known to cause muscle-eye-brain disease, marked by brain malformation, intellectual disability, muscle and vision problems)</li> <li>A family with an X-linked mutation in MECP2 in two boys (MECP2 mutations are known to cause Rett syndrome in girls, but are typically lethal in boys)</li> </ul><p>"We have textbook descriptions of all these diseases, but in real life, there can be atypical, milder presentations of the same disease," says Yu. "The kids we were studying with autism were alive at age 13. They had double hits for these mutations, but they were much milder mutations. The proteins retained a bit of their function."</p> <p>The team also examined a cohort of U.S. patients, looking for recessive mutations in six of the genes they identified. They analyzed whole-exome sequence data from 612 families with ASDs, part of a registry known as the Simons Simplex Collection. The analysis suggested that some of the affected children had causative recessive mutations in at least two of the genes identified in the Middle Eastern families, and that larger-scale efforts to examine all 70 genes more fully for recessive mutations may prove fruitful.</p> <p>"It's not clear yet how many U.S. families have these recessive mutations," says Yu. "Further studies could begin to estimate what fraction of autism cases might fall under this model."</p> <p>The Boston Children's study complements another study published in the same issue of <em>Neuron</em>, led by Dr. Mark Daly of Massachusetts General Hospital and the Broad Institute. That study looked for recessive mutations across the entire genome in 933 cases and 869 controls -- but specifically sought those that completely abolished a gene's function.</p> <p>"Together, these two studies firmly establish that recessive mutations contribute importantly to autism, not just in specialized populations but in the population at large," says Yu. "Genome sequencing is going to be a huge advance in identifying more of these mutations, since there are a lot of rare syndromes that are otherwise very difficult to detect."</p> <p><em>Share this story on <strong>Facebook</strong>, <strong>Twitter</strong>, and <strong>Google</strong>:</em></p> <p><em>Other social bookmarking and sharing tools:</em></p> <hr /><p><strong>Story Source:</strong></p> <blockquote readability="7.4328358209"><p>The above story is reprinted from materials provided by <strong><span id="source">Boston Children's Hospital</span></strong>. </p> <p><em>Note: Materials may be edited for content and length.
