iRobot announces new OS for more autonomous military robots
Adam Westlake - Oct 12, 2014, 11:00 am CDT
iRobot, most known to consumers as the company that makes the popular automated vacuum cleaner Roomba, has announced a new operating system that can improve autonomous robots used by the military and in disaster situations. Through the use of an Android app, iRobot hopes to allow military robots to better think on their own, requiring less human time at the controls.
Among the different types of professional-grade robots that iRobot supplies are military-use bomb disposal and reconnaissance units, as well as those used by police and in first response situations. In order for these robots to move around in environments such as a battlefield or natural disaster area, they are controlled by a human using a joystick. The new system from iRobot instead has users tapping on the screen of a tablet in order to direct where the unit needs to go.
This operating system is not something that is meant to replace the joystick control mechanisms on its exiting non-Roomba robots, but rather it is going to be used in future units that are to come with government funding. iRobot says the Pentagon has a growing interest in robots that can independently perform tasks such as navigate through debris, move pieces of rubble, and turn something such as a valve.
The Pentagon's research division, DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), is even sponsoring a contest of sorts for other private companies and universities to come up with autonomous robots that can make it through a simulated disaster area. The agency says it expects prototypes to have the approximate intelligence of a two-year-old when the challenge finals are held next summer.

Late at night, at a villa in the suburbs.
"Father, are you trying to say… Si Ye Han hired them to protect that woman?" Si Yi Qian pondered about it for a while before he responded.
Be that as it may, Si Ming Li still felt uneasy. Although there were no doubts about Mr. Eric's abilities and methods, Si Ye Han's methods were formidable as well.
"Father, you don't need to worry too much. Even if Si Ye Han found out, he would only have a falling out with us. With Mr. Eric in this battle with us, it's hard to say who'll win, but I think that victory will be ours." Si Yi Qian chuckled.
Si Ming Li felt more at ease at the mention of Eric. He actually doubted that person's methods and abilities… that was really thoughtless of him.
Furthermore, Si Ye Han would never find out that Mr. Eric existed in this world.
"Hng. Si Ye Han, you've provoked someone you shouldn't have. The game has just begun. We'll play it slowly…" A cold light flashed in Si Ming Li's eyes as he sneered.
Very soon, a couple of men in black shirts strode into the large hall.
The leading one had grizzled hair, but judging by his appearance, he should only be around 27 or 28 years old. He looked very elegant and had a sinister aura on his face, but it wasn't the same as those mercenaries.
Si Ming Li stepped forward instantly and greeted the man.
Tang Long extended his right arm and shook Si Ming Li's hand.
"Haha, so it's captain Tang Long. I've heard about you, and it's an honor to meet you. Captain Tang Long is so young, yet you're already at this level. Outstanding… hurry, please come in. Knowing that all of you were coming over tonight, I acted on my own initiative and prepared a little feast. I hope captain Tang Long and the rest of the brothers will do me the honor!" Si Ming Li smiled courteously.

For Commercial questions, suppliers should contact their identified Sourcing Agent directly. For general questions regarding Purchasing policies, or contract implementation issues, suppliers should contact their Regional Purchasing representative.
For Transactional questions, suppliers should contact their service center using the number contained on the Purchase Order.
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is used to make many types of bottles. HDPE has good barrier properties; it%q%s well suited for packaging products with a short shelf life and has good chemical resistance. It is identified with the number 2.HDPE is used in milk, juice, and water bottles along with household items such as shampoo, conditioner, detergent, cleaners, motor oil, and antifreeze. It can also be found in pipe, tiles, plastic film and sheeting, buckets, crates, and recycling bins.
PET is a polymer of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid. Pellets of PET resin are heated to a molten liquid, which can be easily extruded or molded into almost any shape. PET was first synthesized in the U.S. during the mid-1940s by DuPont chemists searching for polymers that could be used to make new textile fibers.
Yes. PET bottles are cleared for both single and repeated use by the FDA and other world health-safety agencies. It%q%s a common misconception that refilling or reusing a PET bottle will somehow cause the bottle to degrade or to release harmful substances. PET is a stable, inert material that doesn%q%t biologically or chemically degrade with use, and is resistant to attack by micro-organisms. Regulatory authorities have tested PET bottles and found no harmful substances in either new or re-used PET bottles.
PET has been approved as safe for contact with foodstuffs and beverages by the FDA, Health Canada, the European Food Safety Authority and virtually every other health-safety agency in the world. It has been used for food and beverage containers for decades without any known adverse effects. Extensive studies of PET and PET packaging have repeatedly shown it to be safe
PET contains no phthalates. Phthalates (i.e., phthalate ester plasticizers) are not used in PET, and PET is not a phthalate. Plasticizer phthalates are sometimes used to soften other types of plastic, but they are not used in PET. Some consumers may have incorrectly assumed that PET is a phthalate because PET's chemical name is polyethylene terephthalate. Despite the suffix, PET is not a phthalate. Phthalates are low molecular weight monoesters made from ortho-phthalic acid. By comparison, PET is a high molecular weight polyester made from tere-phthalic acid. Chemically they are very different.
Very small amounts of antimony compounds are used in the production of both PET and glass. Antimony oxide is typically used as the catalyst in making PET, which is chemically bound into the polymer at very low levels. Over time and with extended exposure to heat, trace amounts of antimony may migrate into water or other beverages bottled in PET. Laboratory tests on the migration of antimony compounds from PET have consistently found these levels far below all safety thresholds - typically less than 1/40th of the World Health Organization's daily safe-consumption level for drinking water.
Although the PET recycling rate continues to grow in both the United States and Europe, the Europeans seem more attuned to the value of recycling packaging materials. The U.S. recycling rate for PET was approximately 29% in 2011. By comparison, the 2011 recycling rate in Europe was 51%.
PET can be recovered, and the material reused, through a series of special washing processes or by a chemical treatment to break down the PET into its raw materials or intermediates, which are then purified and converted into new PET resin.
Yes. It is safe when manufactured, used, or incinerated. It helps preserve water and electricity as there is no water loss through its fused joints. No toxins are released during the creation or disposal of PE pipe.
Yes. Virtually every municipal recycling program in North America and Europe accepts PET bottles and containers, which can be easily identified by a triangle-shaped symbol and the number "1" stamped or molded into the bottom or side of the container.
Yes. Recycling used PET bottles and jars into new food-grade PET bottles and containers is a key example of the environmental benefits and sustainability of PET as a packaging material. The development of modern and efficient plants dedicated to the closed-loop recycling of PET bottles continues to increase around the world.
PET containers are popular for packaging sodas, water, juices, salad dressings, cooking oil, peanut butter, shampoo, liquid hand soap, mouthwash, pharmaceuticals, even tennis balls. Virtually all single-serving and 2-liter bottles of carbonated soft drinks and water sold in the U.S. are made from PET. Special grades of PET are used for carry-home prepared food containers that can be warmed in the oven or microwave.
Stress relieved grades typically work better in parts that have undergone extensive fabrication.
The Polyethylene (PE) material used for making Water Storage Tanks is Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) having density range of 910.0 -940.0 kg/ m3. The particular PE material has higher tensile strength, impact strength and puncture resistance than LDPE.
PVC has a limitation of withstanding higher temperature. Maximum it can withstand is 450C subjected to a de-rating factor as low as of 0.45 being applied over the recommended operating pressure at 200C.
To make the same material withstand high temperature, a portion of hydrogen in its molecule is replaced with chlorine in a post production process. This transformed material having characteristic of higher temperature resistance, higher tensile strength, good toughness and an exceptional chemical resistance is now called CPVC or Chlorinated Poly Vinyl Chloride.
This material can withstand a temperature as high as 820C and is now exclusively used for manufacturing of pipes for hot water plumbing systems and sprinkler systems for fire fighting.
Fittings should be stored out of the direct sunlight and in the original packing until immediately before use. Couplers should be stored on their flat ends.
PVC pipe meets or exceeds all required health and safety standards and regulations governed by the U.S. and Canadian Safe Drinking Water Acts and other international statutes. Its use is monitored by independent agencies like NSF International — and government bodies like the U.S. Environment Protection Agency ensure its safety through mandatory regular testing. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Consumer Product Safety Commission have confirmed that PVC is a safe product.
There are basically two: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is plastic and ductile iron, which is metal and includes iron, brass, and copper.
The raw material used in Pars Ethylene Kish polyethylene manholes is 3840, also can be used HDPE and LDPE based on producing with rotational molding method, like wise all bolts and gaskets are hot galvanized.


Quality managers perform and oversee testing procedures on virtually all manufactured goods produced. Quality manager positions can be found throughout every sector of the economy from government, aerospace, retail, manufacturing, education, healthcare, and auto. Quality managers test products to see if they meet industry standards and have the required longevity of use. Rigorous testing procedures are used that require the use of specific tools and software.
Quality managers are involved in nearly all phases of the manufacturing process making sure products are compliant and reliable. They also perform in-depth analysis of the data they collect while testing to look for ways to improve the product and testing process.
Quality managers also oversee teams of quality assurance engineers, testers, and samplers. Some quality managers perform tests on very few different products while others test a wide range of products.
People interested in a career as a quality manager need to have at least a four-year bachelor's degree in engineering, statistics, biological sciences, manufacturing, or a related major. Industry training requirements are ongoing as advances in manufacturing and technology occur on a regular basis requires the manager to constantly learn new skills. It is helpful to have a background in computer-aided drafting, blueprint and schematic reading, and laboratory procedures.
For people who have the requisite education and/or experience it is fairly easy to break into the industry. Jobs are routinely posted on internet job sites, classified ads, quality control journals and publications, and state agency employment websites. It is recommended students participate in internships or externships to gain experience and make contacts within the industry. Quality managers must possess analytical skills, pay attention to details, and have the ability to manage subordinate employees. They must be very knowledgeable about industry standards and testing procedures.
The career outlook for quality managers is fair. Job growth is expected to occur as fast as the average job which is anywhere from 7-9% over the next decade. Factors that affect job growth include outsourcing of testing overseas, consumer spending, government spending, private sector spending, and research and development.
Working conditions for quality managers vary depending on the industry. Their time is typically spent in the field performing tests and in an office environment performing administrative duties such as filing reports, analyzing data and dealing with personnel. Work conditions may be somewhat dangerous for those who perform tests in manufacturing plants and laboratories where accidents may occur. Many quality managers wear personal protective equipment while testing. The typical work week is forty hours, Monday-Friday.
The average salary for a quality manager is $72,000 per year but varies greatly by geographic location, type of organization, and level of experience. Quality managers who work for federal agencies, aerospace companies, and large private organizations typically make the most lucrative salaries. It is not uncommon for quality managers to earn annual salaries above $100,000. Benefits typically include medical, dental, and retirement.

Amid tensions and tributes, France and Germany mark 60 years of the Élysée Treaty

Six decades ago, French President Charles de Gaulle and German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer signed a friendship treaty that marked a dramatic turn in the history of their nations. For five centuries, generations of French and German soldiers were either engaged in combat or preparing to do battle with each other. The horrible carnage of World War II convinced de Gaulle and Adenauer to break the perpetual cycle of violence and pledge that war between their countries must never happen again.
The reconciliation between France and Germany transformed ancient enemies into friends. It stands as perhaps the greatest achievement of the European Union. The French—German tandem soon became a powerful motor propelling the quest for greater integration among EU members. Valery Giscard d'Estaing and Helmut Schmidt laid the foundations for a European monetary union that culminated in the euro. François Mitterrand and Helmut Kohl resolved personal differences to embrace German unification and promote the expansion of the Union to embrace the nascent democracies in eastern Europe following the end of the Cold War.
On Sunday January 22, in grandiose ceremonies at Sorbonne University in Paris and the Élysée Palace, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz vowed to instill new impetus into their mission of transforming Europe into an influential superpower that can defend its own interests in an era of renewed big-power rivalry with the United States, China and Russia. Ministers from both governments and more than 300 legislators joined the festivities to celebrate the 1963 Élysée treaty but also consider new strategies to fulfill Europe's aspirations to become a future global power.
Macron told the audience gathered at the Sorbonne, where he first outlined his own vision for a more dynamic Europe five years ago, that France and Germany had "cleared the path to reconciliation" and must now "become pioneers to relaunch Europe." He stressed that Europe needed to innovate a new energy policy in the wake of Russia's war against Ukraine by exploiting tomorrow's technologies to ensure the European Union emerges as "a geopolitical power in its own right, in defense, space and diplomacy."
For his part, Scholz said the future of Europe would depend on the "driving force" of Paris and Berlin. "The German-French engine is a machine for compromise: well oiled, but from time to time also loud and marked by hard work," he said.
In a joint communiqué, both leaders said they would "work together for a European Union that is more resilient, more sustainable and more capable of acting independently." They would promote this agenda by forging a "strong European foreign and security policy" and by building up "European defense capabilities." They also promised to work together to reform EU institutions and transform the bloc into a more effective "geopolitical actor."
"Our objective is the same: a more sovereign and united Europe that is in control of its own destiny," said Macron told a press conference. Scholz endorsed Macron's comment and emphasized that "Franco-German co-operation is needed for progress in Europe as a whole."
Nonetheless, the pomp and ceremony at the anniversary celebration could not mask serious tensions that have roiled French and German relations in recent months. A persistent challenge facing Paris and Berlin is how best to calibrate and coordinate future military aid, including the possible delivery of tanks and heavy armor to Ukrainian forces.
France, like other Western partners, has been frustrated by Germany's recalcitrance in supplying modern Leopard-2 tanks that are desperately needed by the Ukrainian army. But Scholz has refused to buckle under pressure from the allies, largely because of pacifist elements within his government and Germany's reluctance to send lethal weapons to areas of conflict, particularly in the former Soviet Union.
Asked whether he would eventually agree to send the Leopards, Scholz would only say that decisions about military aid to Ukraine should be made jointly by the country's allies. Macron said he had asked the French defense ministry to examine whether to send its own main battle tank, the Leclerc. "Nothing has been ruled out," he said. "Such decisions will be made with our allies. . . and there will be more work to do in the days and weeks to come."
But differences over the war in Ukraine are not the only source of friction between Paris and Berlin. A previously planned conclave between the two governments, scheduled for last October, was abruptly cancelled by the French government because French officials said there were disagreements over a range of issues, including how to respond to Russia cutting off natural gas supplies to Europe to the fate of nuclear energy and joint defense projects.
As the European Union expanded to now 27 member states, it has become more difficult for France and Germany to shape the consensus of a more diverse bloc of nations. Russia's war against Ukraine has only exacerbated various perceptions of the security threat from Moscow: eastern states such as Poland and the Baltic states fear that Russian aggression may soon target them. They have consistently demanded that the West should provide greater supplies of lethal weaponry to Ukraine, even in the face of Russian threats that nations delivering arms to Ukraine may become directly involved in the conflict.
While eastern EU states focus on the Russian menace, southern states such as Italy, Spain and Greece are worried about unchecked immigration from Africa and the Middle East. Those states fear that a surge of immigrants could inflame the dangers of far-right populism destabilizing their countries, a concern shared by France.
Meanwhile, Germany has become much more focused on its own economic fragility. German leaders such as Scholz and Angela Merkel have proved to be mercantilist defenders of German economic interests, rather than far-sighted visions of European unity espoused by their predecessors Schmidt and Kohl. Today, many Germans fear that their once-prosperous economic model, built on cheap Russian gas and lucrative exports to China, has become endangered and could lead the country down the path to economic decline.
Macron has been bitterly disappointed by his failure to align Merkel, and now Scholz, behind his view that Europe must become more politically integrated in order to prevent being picked apart in the great game of nations by Russia, China and the United States. He genuinely fears that unless the European Union can defend its own interests on the world stage, a frenetic race by member states to cut their own separate deals could break the EU apart.
As a result, Macron has touted the 44-nation European Political Community, including non-EU countries like the United Kingdom and Turkey, as a way to build multi-layered forms of cooperation. Macron has developed closer ties through new treaties with Spain, Italy, and Greece. He also plans to meet soon with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to encourage Britain to play a more cooperative role in European security, even though London is no longer a member of the EU.
Macron's tactics appear to have captured Germany's attention. Recently, Scholz has tried to heal the rift with Paris. After deciding in favor of American aircraft for its next jet fighter, Germany has now agreed to join France in the next phase of development for their next-generation fighter, the Future Combat Air System. Berlin has also signed up for a future hydrogen pipeline that is to be built between Spain and France, known as H2Med.
At the anniversary event, French and German ministers also discussed how the EU should respond to the Inflation Reduction Act, US President Joe Biden's energy package that includes substantial subsidies for everything from electric vehicles to hydrogen technology. Both Paris and Berlin fear that this act will siphon investment in green technology from Europe to the US, which would endanger future jobs and their own economic health.
After months of tensions and recriminations, the pageantry and bonhomie on display in Paris reflect a clear desire on both sides to bury the hatchet and embark on a new phase of close cooperation. France and Germany seem to have recognized that working together is the only way for both countries to achieve the best outcome for themselves, as well as for Europe.

We would strongly recommend a test drive, so you can fully experience the fun you will have.


If your marketing content huddled up as a football team, a great white paper would probably be your most valuable player, because it has the same name appeal as a star NFL quarterback. Sure, other players might work just as hard – but it's the white paper that gets instant recognition.
1. Think about your audience. Your white paper probably isn't what you'd be interested in reading: find out what matters to your prospects and create your papers around those topics. Visit forums and ask questions to learn more about what they want to know.
2. Draw them in. The paper's introduction should present the topic in a compelling way, drawing in the reader and making them eager to learn more.
3. Leave the marketing speak behind. The paper should present useful information in a simple, easy-to-read way. If you want to sell, create a brochure or sales sheet instead.
4. Solve the problem. Don't just tell your audience about their problems, explain how they can solve them. Don't be overly afraid of giving away "inside" information: your expert knowledge makes the paper a success.
5. Get the facts. Numbers are no longer a requirement, but good data or survey results will boost your paper's appeal. Search academic journals and trade group surveys for numbers you can use.
6. Back it up. Don't use these marketing pieces to make unsubstantiated claims; they breed skepticism and undermine your credibility. If you don't have numbers, use quotes from objective third-party sources.
7. Make the case. Consider sprinkling in a few relevant business case studies and real-life examples for added value.
8. Tell them how to shop. You can't use white papers to sell your solution, but you can explain to readers how to shop for a solution in a way that leads them toward your offering.
9. Think visual. Support your paper with strong visual elements like tables, graphs, pull quotes and sidebars.
10. Give it away. When you require a prospect to log in or sign up to receive the finished paper, you limit its effectiveness. Make sure most – if not all – of the content on your website is ungated.

Thanks for your thoughts, CLD. I agree that a cogent "stand out" white paper is a rare and influential beauty. Show us some of your examples!
When writing White Papers the most important thing is that it has the ability to stand out. The world of white papers has become so cluttered, particularly all of the free white paper hosting sites, that it is difficult to find the truly worthwhile ones. A well written white paper can be beneficial for your business in lead generation and other ways as well.

President Obama's stimulus package devotes over eight billion dollars to beef up public transportation, but that won't help fund the day-to-day costs of buses and trains, nor will it stop cuts to service. The federal gas tax pays some of the running costs, but has been stuck at 18.4 cents for 16 years. Matthew Welbes of the Federal Transit Administration talks with host Bruce Gellerman about some options for funding public transportation.
GELLERMAN: For President Obama, the road to economic recovery begins in the fast lane to the Department of Transportation.
A week before the DOT was supposed to get $26.6 billion authorized in the stimulus package, the President traveled to the Transportation Department to hand over the money.
OBAMA: Transportation projects that were once on hold are now starting up again as part of the largest new investment in America's infrastructure since President Eisenhower built the interstate highway system.
GELLERMAN: The name of the economic recovery game is jobs. 150,000 jobs will be saved or created with the DOT's money, according to the President's estimates, with the lion's share of the funds going to build and repair the nation's highways and bridges.
Matthew Welbes, a senior official with the Federal Transit Administration, says $8.4 billion goes to public transportation.
WELBES: The way the Congress wrote the law, it's money for capital purchases, so it's for buying new buses, it's for buying new subway and street cars, it's for fixing up passenger stations, fixing up the maintenance facility where the buses and the rail vehicles are maintained. And there's a significant backlog of investment needed to make our public transportation service really, really better quality for the customers, and to make it move more efficiently. And so, these resources will help recapitalize our nation's transit assets.
GELLERMAN: But it's not going to help places like St. Louis that's really hurting. It's going to be cutting 2,300 bus stops out of 9,000. It's cutting a quarter of its staff, just at the end of March.
WELBES: Bruce, it's something we're observing really across the country right now. And we're seeing sales revenues that are often the funding source, local funding source for public transportation declining, as the – during the economic downturn. Right now, federal transit funding comes in part from the gas tax. The gas tax has remained in the same place since 1993. And so we've seen an erosion of about a third in the, you know, value of the gas tax, particularly as it's declined, you know, due to inflation. So 2.86 cents out of the 18 cent gas tax goes to public transportation. But as people have stopped driving as much and using as much gasoline and more importantly, as a lot of vehicle sales have declined, the funding that supports both highways and mass transit is declining. And so, while we're seeing transit ridership at record levels. We also see this revenue decline.
GELLERMAN: You know Mr. Welbes, United States government is bailing out the banks and the insurance industry and the auto industry and I don't think anyone intends that this stimulus money be used as a bailout for public transportation, but what's the answer. How can we make public transportation self sufficient?
WELBES: Probably it's a package of solutions that are going to solve it. Carbon taxes or cap and trade revenue have been examined as a possible source, given that transit has a beneficial effect on reducing emissions and reducing climate change gases. I think as we go forward, the gas tax has been a part of the funding for public transportation at the federal level, and that may continue. So, it's probably a portfolio of solutions that will be put together in the end to support transportation needs.
GELLERMAN: I know there was a Congressional blue ribbon commission just recently came out with the funding saying okay, we've gotta in the short term raise the tax on gasoline at the federal level and then we've gotta switch over to something completely different- we've gotta get into some kind of tax on the miles you actually drive in your car.
WELBES: That's right, there are two different commissions, they are federal commissions and in the last year both of those commissions reached somewhat the similar conclusions, and they're recommendations involve raising the gas tax or indexing the gas tax to inflation over time, looking at vehicle miles traveled charges. The President has noted that at this moment we have an economic downturn - raising the gas tax is not on the to do list.
GELLERMAN: So how would a fee on the miles driven work exactly?
WELBES: Sure. The way it would work is a car would have a transponder on it., And as you drive it would record where you've driven, when you've driven. And for example, in a test that was done out in Oregon a few years back, at the time I believe, a person pulled their car into a gas station it would record some key information and the individual's car would then be charged based on their travel. And so it's information about, you know, the time of day when one's traveling and how far one's traveled, where one's traveled and so it's a more discrete charge in the same way that you'd pay a different fair to fly on an airplane depending on what time of day you choose to fly.
GELLERMAN: Boy, can you say Big Brother?
WELBES: Well, that's one of the concerns. I think First Amendment concerns are among one of the issues that would need some sort of resolution. I know that proponents of VMT charges have described the ability to make anonymous such information. I think that's something that people interested in the First Amendment would want to understand more clearly, but it's one of the issues to resolve.
GELLERMAN: The decline in the number of miles or vehicle miles Americans are driving is so dramatic I guess we drove last year 115 billion miles less than we did the year before?
WELBES: It's substantial. I think one of the things we learned last summer is that four dollars a gallon is a point where people dramatically change their travel behavior and what we're also now seeing this that because of the economic downturn, some of the things that happened over the summer remain in place. And you know, we experienced a notable increase in public transportation use during the past year as well for those same two reasons.
GELLERMAN: You know, transportation needs roads and bridges and those types of things. Those are planned decades in advance. Could it be that we're planning the wrong transportation mix for the future, that is as ridership increases on public transportation, and miles driven goes down, maybe we got it wrong.
WELBES: As we go forward in our country, we want to be sure that we make investments not only in transportation but in the way we develop our land and we build our housing and our businesses so we can create choices for people, so that they can choose to travel by transit to get to school, to reach work, to visit the doctor or even to design communities so that there are trips that are not taken, so that in order to get that loaf of bread or to get a hair cut, a person can walk to some place near by. And so if we create urban forum that is less auto oriented, more supportive of transit and walking, we create places where in the future our investments will support lower emissions and fewer green house gases.
GELLERMAN: Matthew Welbes is acting deputy administrator for the Federal Transit Administration. Mr. Welbes, thanks a lot.

Apple iPhone 12 Pro left unharmed, falls from 26th floor
The woman said that the smartphone slipped from her pocket while spreading her quilt on the balcony of the 26th floor of an apartment complex, reports Gizmochina.
Hong Kong | Monday, 26 December 2022 | 12:07 PM 12:07 PM
A Chinese woman claimed that her Apple iPhone 12 Pro fell from the 26th floor of a building and yet was not destroyed.
This incident joins a growing collection of stories related to the iPhone.
The falling smartphone was inserted into a platform made of foam on the second floor of the building.

When the woman asked for assistance, a staff member went up to the second floor to get the iPhone and the screen of the device was not even damaged.
"The iPhone 12 Pro comes with some protection against damage when it falls. It has a super-ceramic panel and a matte textured glass back panel. It also comes with a stainless-steel frame which is of excellent quality," the report said.
Previously, iPhones were also found inside the toilet, a river and even falling from an aeroplane.

Paul MacKinnon, son of 12 times winner Neil MacKinnon, has won the 2008 Tunnock's Tour of Mull, with Daniel Barritt (co-driver for Neil last year) sat alongside him reading pace notes and providing support and guidance Going into the final Leg of 5 stages, 'MacKinnon The Younger' and Daniel Barritt had 25 seconds in hand over Calum and Iain Duffy. There were 56 miles of stages in that final group. For Calum, that meant less than half a second a mile to make up. No problem, eh? Let battle commence. And what a fight that turned out to be.
MacKinnon's yellow Subaru was like a comet, blazing a path up Loch Tuath and round Calgary Bay. He stopped the clocks 22 seconds sooner than his Dad did 2 years ago. A new record. Then came Calum, the comet scorching its own line over the tarmac. He broke the record too, but by 'only' 14 seconds.
The gap was now 40 seconds with 3 stages to go. Now, sensible folks like you and me might have left it at that, but note the use of the word 'sensible' here. Calum took 5 back from Paul on Loch Scridain. Paul equalled the record on Gribun and took 3 back from Calum. There were now 38 seconds between them and 14 miles of tarmac, which was originally laid down by a drunk, dribbling asphalt out of the back end of a tipper, while driving over what became the Hill Road and down Glen Bellart. That isn't a road, it's wishful thinking.
Surely not? Well those two went at it like a pair of ferocious Scottish midgies wanting a big bite out of the same fat bloke. And then it happened. A patch of mud on the road, locked up brakes, and off. Disaster. It was all over. Maybe. Paul locked the diffs and managed to reverse out, but Calum's lights were only too visible and catching. "That was some trip down the last 10 miles of the Glen, I'll tell you," said Paul, "the bumper was hanging off it, I don't know what else might have been wrong, but I just had to go for it." And go he did.
At the finish, Calum said, "He drove well, you can't take that away from him." So how hard was Calum trying? He pointed to his rear tyres. The whole tread moulding was starting to separate from the tyre casing. You could put your fingers in the gaps.

Europe's grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) originated in North America, where they are known as eastern gray squirrels (to differentiate from western gray squirrels). They eat large seeds, flowers, buds, fruits, fungi, some insects and occasionally bird eggs.

They were first introduced into England, in a concerted way, in 1876, and through rapidly growing population and further introductions they spread to the rest of Great Britain by the early to mid-20th century. The eastern grey squirrel was introduced to Continental Europe in 1948 and has quickly taken advantage of Europe's food sources, habitats and lack of predators for grey squirrels.  Genetic studies have shown that human intervention-- released pets and intentional dispersal--may play a much larger role in the spread of grey squirrels than previously believed.

The native squirrel in Europe is the red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris). Both species have similar diets, use similar locations of the environment and have similar activity patterns; however, there is no evidence of noticeable aggression between the two species. These eastern grey squirrels are considered an invasive species in Europe because of their presence contributing to the displacement of the red squirrels.

The invasion of the grey squirrel in the United Kingdom can be classified as a Disease Mediated Invasion (DMI). More specifically, the invasion of the grey squirrels and displacement of the red squirrels can be described by "spillover DMI", which is defined as a non-native species bringing diseases with them into the new area that will infect the native species. Spillover is especially an issue of when the invading species is morphologically similar to the native one. This can have devastating effects.

Introduction of grey squirrel to Europe
Grey squirrels have been introduced either on purpose or by accident in many places throughout the world.

They were first introduced into England, in a concerted way, in 1876, and through rapidly growing population and further introductions they spread to the rest of Great Britain by the early to mid-20th century.

The first reported introduction of grey squirrels in continental Europe was in 1948, and they were taken to Stupinigi, Italy, where there is still a growing population. In Ireland, however, Lord Longford was said to have introduced the American squirrels into his estate in 1911. Then in 1966, five squirrels were introduced to Nervi, Italy in the park of Genoa. Later in 1994, three pairs were again released to a park in Trecate but were captured and removed in 1996. As stated before, not all grey squirrel introductions were intentional. For example, in 1966 two females and one male escaped from a game farm on Vancouver Island.

Almost 80% of known grey squirrel introductions worldwide resulted in successful establishment in the new area. Typically, grey squirrels do not need large numbers to start a new population. From studying all of the known successful introductions of this species, 71.4% used fewer than 10 individuals. This efficiency in the spread of grey squirrels can be explained by the "enemy release hypothesis", which is when the invading species has better survival because its natural predators are not present. Also, natural parasites typically are not present in the area that the species has been introduced or has invaded. Because the grey squirrel poses such a threat to the trees and red squirrel in Europe, there is great effort to stop the further spread of the grey squirrels.

Impact on other species

Competition for food
One of the biggest concerns about the grey squirrel as an invasive species is the effect introduction has on populations of red squirrels. Grey and red squirrels compete for resources, and greys will pilfer food caches of red squirrels. Reduction in red squirrel individual growth, juvenile recruitment, and reproductive success has been linked to competition between grey and red squirrels. In areas of large core overlap between red and grey squirrel populations, a reduction in body mass of red squirrels during the Spring has been observed. This is most likely due to the fact that reds and greys participate in direct competition for limited resources, suggesting there is no niche partitioning occurring. This direct competition also explains a decrease in juvenile recruitment and reproductive success, as immature reds will die due to lack of resources before reaching sexual maturity.

Poxvirus
In addition to competition for resources, the spread of the squirrelpox virus from grey squirrels to reds is thought to be a major factor in the decline of red squirrel populations. Grey squirrels do not die from the squirrelpox virus and can infect red squirrels causing the appearance of scabs and lesions on the face, feet, and genitals and eventually death. In Great Britain, grey squirrels have been able to spread 17 to 25 times faster through competitive exclusion of the red squirrel due to increased mortality of reds from the squirrelpox virus. In fact, the virus works so quickly in killing its host after infection that seeing a red squirrel with poxvirus is uncommon even though the disease may be highly prevalent in a red squirrel population. The full consequences of these interactions cannot be completely determined, though the difference in population density and weight of the two species may have an effect on energy flow in ecosystems.

Woodland and songbird species
Grey squirrels also bear some of the responsibility for the decline of select woodland and songbird bird species as they sometimes feed on bird eggs and chicks. Although the grey squirrel is often blamed in part for this decline in the UK, this is probably not the case for populations introduced to Italy. In those populations, the greys mainly feed on "seeds, fruits, buds, flowers and, occasionally, on insects, switching from one resource to another according to seasonal availability".

Bark stripping
Certain behaviour of the grey squirrel, such as bark stripping, also has negative effects on trees and timber plantations. This is thought to be biggest effect introduced squirrels have on island ecosystems. For example, Garry oak trees on Vancouver Island have become endangered due to urban development and the presence of invasive species including the grey squirrel. Scatter-hoarding of seeds by grey squirrels causes notching in the acorns of white oaks. Notching prevents germination, which can hinder natural forest regeneration. Bark stripping makes branches weaker and more susceptible to being broken off by wind or animals and can also cause secondary infection that may lead to death. Bark stripping makes trees more susceptible to red band needle blight (RBNB), which is caused by the asexual stage of the fungus Dothistroma septosporum. RBNB results in a necrotrophic infection that kills needle tissue in pine species. Phytophthora ramorum is another fungus affecting tree health. Trees between 10 and 40 years of age and certain species, including beech and sycamore, are more vulnerable than others. Grey squirrels also damage trees by eating their sap, suggesting this behaviour provides some nutritional benefit.

Predicted spread

Predicted spread throughout Europe
Spatially explicit population dynamics models were used by Bertolino et al. 2008 to predict the spread of the grey squirrel populations present in Italy in 1996: the Piedmont, Genoa and Ticino populations. The models examined potential corridors that would allow grey squirrels to invade France and Switzerland and the time scale of such invasions. In a scenario based on a random pattern of good, poor and mast-year seed crops (vegetation produces significant abundance of food resources), in the "best-case" scenario, grey squirrels will reach the Western Alps between 2026 and 2036, France between 2066 and 2071, and Switzerland between 2051 and 2066. In a scenario where poor-year seed crops were not included, the "worst-case" scenario, grey squirrels will reach the Western Alps by 2015, France by 2026, and Switzerland between 2031 and 2041. Along the border between France and Italy, the forest cover is mainly composed of mixed broadleaf trees; this represents a likely corridor to France for the grey squirrel. Mixed deciduous woodland lines the Ticino river; this area connects with contiguous hardwood on the side of Lake Maggiore in Switzerland, making the area along the Ticino river a likely corridor for the grey squirrel to invade Switzerland. The upper portion of the Alps is covered largely by coniferous forest. Grey squirrels, which are heavier than native red squirrels, have a higher energy requirement than red squirrels. It may be difficult for the grey squirrels to attain their higher energy requirement in this environment because they may have difficulty reaching the small seeds contained in the conifers' cones; for this reason, grey squirrel performance in this habitat will affect the spread of the species. Eventually, if populations are left unchecked, the grey squirrel will spread through a large portion of continental Europe and Eurasia, potentially invading the entire global distribution of the red squirrel.

Predicted spread of the poxvirus and damage to trees
The squirrelpox virus is predicted to spread by the grey squirrels as they act as a vector for the virus. Further, a separate model examining the effects of the spread of the grey squirrel on the health of Scots and lodgepole pines showed that grey squirrels will spread red band needle blight, decreasing the population of lodgepole pines exponentially, and that Scots pine populations will decrease slower due to fungal growth resulting from the bark-stripping behaviour of the grey squirrel.

Continued spread after attempted eradication
In 1991, eradication of a grey squirrel population in Piedmont was attempted via trapping and euthanasia; however, this effort was suspended for three years after animal rights groups filed a lawsuit. During the three-year suspension, the grey squirrel population had grown so much that it was no longer feasible to attempt eradication by the methods initially used. If the species spreads significantly (the three populations in Italy invade France or Switzerland and establish successful populations outside of Italy) before preventative or eradicative efforts are taken, it will, in all probability, be too late for effective action.

Natural predator

The European pine marten is a natural predator of squirrels, including the eastern grey squirrel, but has been eradicated from large parts of the area affected by the grey squirrel such as England and Wales. The European pine marten's population is currently expanding and there is evidence that grey squirrel populations plummet where it becomes present, with the populations of the co-evolved red squirrel subsequently recovering.

Proposed plans for control or eradication
Although the negative consequences of introduction of non-native species are generally known in the scientific community, the majority of the public is unaware of the effects on native ecosystems. Effective control of the spreading of grey squirrels throughout continental Europe will require a coordinated approach of many nations, and ecologists recommend public education and trade restrictions as primary means to prevent new introductions of non-native species. Currently, the release of non-native species is illegal in most European countries, but both illegal and allowed importations and escapes of grey squirrels from captivity pose threats to native red squirrel and tree populations. In addition to preventing introduction of grey squirrels, containment and eradication could serve to control the species' invasive actions.
Methods for grey squirrel population control depend on the target of protection. In the presence of red squirrels, cage trapping or shooting can be effective. In the absence of red squirrels, poisoning by the anticoagulant Warfarin can be used in special feeding hoppers. These methods are currently effectively controlling the grey squirrel population in Britain. Selectively timed culls, or removal of a percentage of the breeding individuals, of grey squirrel populations can help control and prevent tree damage. Although grey squirrel populations readily recover from culls, their coincidence with annual periods of the greatest damage to trees, typically between April and September when the squirrels are most active in foraging among broadleaf tree populations, can minimize tree damage. Alternatively, non-lethal methods of population control, such as fertility treatments, are being developed, although the effectiveness of these treatments is unknown.
In areas most threatened by spread of grey squirrels, eradication may be more effective than population containment. Eradication of the population of grey squirrels in Genoa would protect two native subspecies of red squirrel, Sciurus vulgaris italicus and Sciurus vulgaris meridionalis, in south-east Italy, and eradication of the grey squirrel population in Ticino would eliminate the threat of grey squirrel invasion into Switzerland for the next 100 years. While these efforts are supported by ecologists, their success will depend on public opinion, governmental support, and awareness of the situation.

My favorite car was probably this '62 Chevy Bel Air two-door hardtop. It had practically everything you could ever want in one of these. Naturally, it was Roman Red with black tires and dog dish hubcaps. Of course it had a 409 with a four-speed. There was even a die cast that looked exactly like it sitting on the air cleaner. This thing was so nice that the hubcaps were in the trunk so the paint didn't get knocked off the wheels. The only possible drawback to this car was that it is so nice, you really wouldn't want to drive it anywhere. If you like these cars, and most people do, you'd love this one.
Here's something that was also nice, but you normally wouldn't expect it to be. This '55 Chevrolet 3800 stake bed truck was built to work. You would typically expect to see something like this on a farm, which is more-than-likely where this one had been. But somewhere along the way, it was treated to a lavish restoration. The paint is beautiful. The wood in the bed floor is of the same quality as fine furniture. There are new gauges in the dash, but the Stovebolt still remains under the hood. It was by far the nicest old farm truck at the show. You could even buy it for $32,500, which seems pretty expensive, but try restoring one for that.
I almost always gravitate toward '67 Corvettes, and this one had more character than most. This Marlboro Maroon beauty was mostly original, and had the dings and chips to prove it. What's more, it earned those battle scars, because this car had 240,000 miles on the clock. It was driven in comfort, with a 327, factory air, and a Powerglide automatic transmission. This is how you wish all Corvettes were treated. It was definitely used, but not abused. The high mileage doesn't hurt a car like this; it only adds to the history. You could spend a lot of time studying this time capsule. Hopefully no one ever fully restores it, because there aren't enough of them out there like it.
This '72 Chevrolet Cheyenne long bed was a stunner. Frost White on the roof, Meadow Green on the upper edges, more Frost White in the middle, and another layer of Meadow Green on the bottom gave this rig an upscale look. The Dark Green seat was kind of a clashing choice, though. This truck was loaded with factory options, including air conditioning, an AM/FM radio, tilt steering wheel, and deluxe gauges. It was also restored to within an inch of its life. I like that they did it to factory specifications, with details like the original-style BF Goodrich bias-ply tires and simple painted wood bed. You see this series of trucks in lots of different configurations, but one like this is at the top of the food chain.
I made it through the story exclusively featuring nice, stock Chevrolets, so I guess I'll write about one more to make it perfect. This is a '55 Bel Air rag top, and a nicer one you will not find. You could have purchased this at the same dealership as the stake bed '55 Chevy truck that I wrote about above, but this one was considerably more luxurious. Do 1950s colors get any more perfect than Coral and Indian Ivory? The seat and carpet were accented with impeccably-stitched shadow grey inserts. Chevrolet's revolutionary 265-c.i.small block V8 and a Powerglide kept things moving along, and factory A/C kept things cool.
There were other nice Chevys, and lots of cars that weren't Chevys, at the 25th-Annual Nashville Auto Fest. And even if I didn't cover them here, I probably took some pictures of them. You can see all the pictures in the slideshow below, or click this link for a nicer version.
It seems like a lot of guys stored those '78 Corvette pace cars. I've probably seen 15 or 20 of them over the years with no miles on them.
I'm pretty sure that's just a hopped-up Chevy inline six on that '67 Nova. Pretty slick, though!

"FRUITS DE LA PASSION" LA COLLECTION DU CENTRE POMPIDOU
HAPPENING 2014.3.17 Text: Maaru Hiyama
The latest collection of the Pompidou Centre is full of passion yet delicate.
Exterior of the Pompidou Centre © Centre Pompidou / Georges Meguerditchian
The Pompidou Centre is a multicultural complex in France, which houses a museum, a center for music and acoustic research and a library. Paris, the city of art, offers broad and generous support regarding art, as is expected. The Project for Contemporary Art (le Projet pour l'art contemporain /PAC), which was established in 2002, has a unique approach to administration. The curators and collectors together make the direct decisions about whether to purchase a piece of art. Jonas Storsve, who is the curator of the Department of Graphic Art of the National Museum of Modern Art and serves as the supervisor, selected pieces of utmost importance from the decade since the museum's establishment for this exhibition held currently in the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art.
The exhibition is comprised of two parts: the introduction and "Fruits de la Passion" (Fruits of Passion). The first part "the introduction" exhibits the masterpieces of modern art. Although modern art seems difficult to comprehend, the passion of artists exists in each touch or each color of paint. You will get a glimpse of the passion of these artists from the subtle variation.

Cy Twombly is an American abstract expressionist artist. You will see some lines like little scratches on the gray surface in the "Untitled". These lines could be ones that a small child scribbled by chance on the wall or handwritings erased halfway and forgotten… Its interpretation can vary, but somehow either sounds bittersweet.
In the second part of the exhibition "Fruits de la Passion", the pieces of art selected from the Pompidou Centre are on display. You will find out the diversity, depth and fun of contemporary art through the pieces displayed that show you various expressions at each step.

Isa Genzken is a leading artist in Germany who creates sculptures using a variety of materials. Her work can be especially stoic for sculpture. "Untitled" is a sculpture made of the materials in our daily lives, yet it gives you a kind of strict and cold impression. The light from the grass, varying with different angles, generates the beauty which can seem to be one that keeps everything at a distance.
Farah Atassi "Workshop" 2011 © Farah Atassi
Farah Atassi is a promising artist born in 1981. Her artwork is a space created exclusively with mosaics, pursuing thoroughly the possibility of them. The buildings in the space are somehow unnatural and they compete with the space made of mosaics. This piece of work seems to be pop at first glance, but it can make you feel even the distortions of modern society.
Jason Rhoades "Chatte de Beaubourg" 2004 © The Estate of Jason Rhoades
Jason Rhoades is an American artist. His piece "Chatte de Beaubourg" (Female cat of Beaubourg) consists of various neon signs of french words such as "Cité de L'amour" (City of love) or "Moule" (Blue mussel). All 17 French words actually represent the private parts of women. It's also a little sarcastic that Beaubourg is where the Pompidou Centre is located. The red electronic cords tied to the vulgar chandelier are also something astonishing.
Su-Mei Tse "L'Echo" 2003 © Su-Mei Tse
Su-Mei Tse has an English mother and a Chinese father. Since both of her parents are musicians, music can be a tool through which she expresses herself better than art. In her piece of work "L'Echo" (The Echo), she herself plays the cello and you will feel its melody echoed. You will experience time cut off from the nature and feel the energy of sound that helps you feel at peace even when seeing an artwork. Her exhibition, including this piece, was held in Luxembourg Pavilion at the fiftieth Venice Biennale in 2003, and she received the Golden Lion award.
Ernesto Neto "We just stopped here at the time" 2002 © Ernesto Neto
Photo © Centre Pompidou, MNAM-CCI / Georges Meguerditchian / Dist. RMN-GP
A Brazilian artist, Ernesto Neto, is famous for his organic pieces of work that look as if they are going to move. You will appreciate this artwork using not only eyesight but also a sense of smell. You will smell cloves, turmeric and peppers from the objects hung down that look like some kind of fruits. Come and see for yourself, and experience this artwork.
Certain delicacy surely can be found behind the passion. Through this exhibition, you will feel both the passion and sensitivity of the artists. Also, you don't want to miss the permanent exhibition which does an excellent job. The Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art, which was designed by Tadao Ando, will show its great resonance through this exhibition.
Date: January 18th – March 23rd, 2014
Opening hours: 10:00 – 18:00 (Friday, Saturday until 20:00, Admission until 30 minutes before closing.)

Sixty-three years have passed since Dial M for Murder premiered on British TV. Not a year has gone by, since then, that this psychological thriller has not appeared on some stage — as fresh and tantalizing now as it was then. Frederick Knott's complex beautifully constructed, witty and captivating plot provided a perfect subject for the ensuing — very successful — Alfred Hitchcock movie starring Grace Kelly and Ray Milland.
Can there be a perfect murder? Will this tell the story of one as devious, disenchanted tennis pro Tony Wendice (Jason Plourde) lays plans to murder his adulterous — and conveniently very wealthy — wife, Margot (Gladys Ramirez). There is the requisite, still interested and faithful lover, Max Halliday (Roy Lynam), the hired accomplice Lesgate (Sean Dorazio), and wonderful police officer Hubbard (Larry Kent Bramble), who is surely an inspiration for future bumbling but wise stage detectives such as Columbo. To add to the convolutions, boyfriend Max is a crime novelist, the perfect foil to pose his own interpretation of what ensues.
Of course, there is a murder. But who is the victim? Of course, there is a murderer, but who is the villain? Max notes, "In murder stories, the crime always turns out as the author plans. In real life, they never do."What fine irony here — in a story, a mirror of reality.
The fun here is that the audience knows the truth and must watch, and hope, for it to unfold — which it does quite satisfactorily, neatly unraveling thread by thread.
Kudos to the polished cast: Plourde creates a charming if smarmy husband; Ramirez, as his wife, is totally glamorous and yet quite vulnerable; handsome Lynam certainly displays the right chemistry for her lover, and the showstopper is Bramble as the muddled yet shrewd detective.
Worth seeing, even for those who recall the film. Nothing beats a live performance.

Pix4Dcapture turns your consumer drone into a professional drone mapping tool. A free companion to Pix4D photogrammetry software, Pix4Dcapture is the perfect tool to automatically capture image data - RGB, multispectral, thermal - for optimal 3D models and maps.
Process post-flight images easily on the cloud or desktop applications, producing georeferenced maps and models that are tailored to many industry needs.
• Flight parameters for each mission - front & side image overlap, camera angle, altitude, GSD, flight speed - can be adjusted based on the requirements of the area.
Ensure you have the latest firmware installed and the app is up to date.
The app follows the flight plan and does not avoid obstacles automatically.
Pix4D accepts no liability for damage, injuries or legalities from the misuse of this app. Use only in safe environments.
Addresses some UI inconsistencies in the mission view and drone selection views.
Fix for manual flight distance triggering selection when switching between metric and imperial units giving inconsistent values between selection and the actual height flown.
Fixes for flying in China when using Apple maps for mission where look at centre is specified.
Fixes for flying in China when using Apple maps with the Anafi.
Updated to latest DJI SDK.
This app has the ability to be so much more than it currently is if Pix4d would put forth the effort to update and advance it. Only thing that I can think of is, since it's free and they don't make money off of it they just do not care! Mavic 2 Pro STILL does not so the live photo preview. Just a black screen. Since one field they market their product to is law enforcement for crash scenes and not all crashes occur during the day, if love to see an option to have the drone pause at each photo for a pre-set amount of seconds or until a preprogrammed function button is press to assist with night captures.
Speaking of the Mavic 2 Pro, how much longer do we have to wait for you guys to fix the EXIF data issues?!?
Have used this a few times, and is performing well now after some hiccups.
A key tip, buried in the training videos, is to start your DJI drone, launch the DJI app to verify that all is good, then STOP the DJI app completely. This solved all issues with freezes and no images for me.
This is a great App and has been exceptional helpful for ease of use with Pix4Dmapper. Unfortunately, Pix4Dcapture does not support the Mavic 2 Enterprise which our department now has a fleet of. We have had to resort to using other Apps and free-flying which has created inconsistent mapping images to import into Pix4Dmapper, which creates problems in and of itself. Please consider adding Mavic 2 Enterprise to the Pix4Dcapture fleet of usable drones. Thank you.

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, Title V of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Title 47 of U.S.C. §230 ("Section 230"), has been a wide-ranging piece of legislation. Before 230, the common law held online forums and other digital locations liable for knowingly -- or intentionally -- allowing third parties to post defamatory material. Section 230 fundamentally changed the landscape. This presentation will provide an overview of 230, its scope, potential reforms, and practical considerations for practitioners.
Ryan E. Long is the principal attorney of Long & Associates PLLC in Santa Monica. He is a Stanford Law School Center for Internet and Society non-residential fellow, Vice Chair of the Licensing & Transactions Group, CA Lawyers Association, and a cooperating attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation. He will address the following topics:
Ripoff Report hypothetical (5 minutes)
Common law vicarious content liability – What did the legal landscape look like before Section 230 was passed? How could hosts of content be directly or indirectly liable for potential libelous or defamatory content? (20 minutes)
Section 230 – What does the text of Section 230 say? What state causes of action have been preempted by the statute? What types of federal claims may plaintiffs still bring? How broadly has "interactive computer service" been interpreted? And does Section 230 apply to republished defamation? (20 minutes)

Revealed: Huawei's 'five-year plan' to address UK security fears
Chinese firm attempts to assuage concerns amid mounting accusations
by: Adam Shepherd
It will take up to five years for Huawei to start fixing security issues in its telecoms infrastructure equipment highlighted by the UK government, it has emerged.
In a letter to Parliament's Science and Technology committee, the company warned that its $2 billion plan to address the government's concerns would not start to see measurable results for around three to five years.
"Enhancing our software engineering capabilities is like replacing components on a high-speed train in motion," said Ryan Ding, president of Huawei's carrier business group. "We hope the UK government can understand this."

It added that while its software engineering has "room for improvement", its "operational quality and performance of our products on live networks are top in the industry".
The Chinese tech vendor has come under fire in recent years over claims that its networking hardware may be secretly being used by the Chinese government for covert surveillance. The company, which is one of the telecoms market's largest providers of 5G networking hardware, has strenuously denied these allegations, but Western governments remain unsatisfied with its response.
The UK is one of Huawei's key markets, but growing security fears have put pressure on the company; BT pledged last year that it would strip the Chinese giant's equipment out of its core infrastructure, and an independent government report in July warned that the use of Huawei equipment in critical national infrastructure could constitute a national security risk.
Ding again refuted accusations of spying in his letter, stating that the company "has never and will never" allow its equipment to be used for espionage purposes and arguing that, due to the intense scrutiny that Huawei is under, "it would certainly destroy our business" if it did.
