Pingie: HTTP:: Introducing the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud Alpha Images

HTTP:: Introducing the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud Alpha Images
--------
While scouring the Ubuntu FTP server yesterday, in eager anticipation for the Alpha 4 release of the Karmic Koala, the Softpedia team made an intriguing discovery that later proved to be the first images of Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud for Karmic Koala. Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud uses Eucalyptus, an open-source implementation of the emerging EC2 standard proposed by Amazon, to deliver a cloud computing infrastructure that can be implemented by anyone, from individuals to businesses of any size. By using the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud infrastructure, an organization can adapt the size of its server base depending on requirements, enlarging or shrinking the capacity along with the variation in demand. This way, a group of servers combine their resources to form a cloud, to which servers can be added or taken offline without impacting uptime or running services. Highlights of Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud: · Easy package deployment and configuration; · Multiple clusters can be configured!
into a single cloud; · An interface compatible to Amazon's EC2, that enables moving from a private to a public cloud; · Enables users to learn popular management tools for cloud computing and to develop skills using techniques that they would deploy on a public c...

HTTP:: Things to Know About Applying Fake Tan
--------
Fake tan is hailed as the best alternative for a bronzed skin with minimal health risks because it only colors the superficial layer of the skin and is gradually washed away. Nevertheless, this is not to say that it can be applied just like that, without taking some necessary measures of precaution â€" at least, not if we want to avoid a tanning catastrophe where our skin is patched and in uneven tones, says the Daily Mail. One of the most frequently asked questions about spray-on tans is of whether they truly are as safe as they claim to be. According to experts, yes they are, as long as we follow the instructions of use: exfoliate and moisturize before applying, and avoid sun exposure and applying other cosmetic products 24 hours after application. Apparently, the active ingredient in fake tans, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), can create a chemical reaction with bacteria and the dead skin cells, which might lead to dry skin. In order to prevent this, after exfoliation, we shou!
ld moisturize properly and only afterwards get on with applying the tanning lotion. However, even if we feel that our skin might be drier than usual, we should refrain from applying any other product for the next 24 hours, as well as exposure to the sun, experts say, citing studies dating from back in 2007, when a connection between fake ta...

HTTP:: Command Conquer 4 Gets New Screenshots and Details
--------
There are certainly a lot of video game genres out there, from the action intensive shooters to the methodical Role Playing Games, but a particularly special one is the Real Time Strategy genre, with hallmarks like StarCraft or Warcraft from Blizzard. However, another big franchise in the realms of strategy titles is EA's Command &amp; Conquer, which has spawned different series, like Red Alert or Generals. But its main focus has always been the Tiberium series, which started with the first title and progressed through to the most recent Tiberium Wars and the expansion, Kane's Wrath. Now, as the last chapter in the series, Command &amp; Conquer 4, was revealed a few weeks ago, fans are getting ready once more to hone their strategy skills and see just what new improvements the game will bring to the classic C&amp;C recipe. The company has just released a batch of new screenshots that reveal quite a lot of the major changes, including the biggest one, as you won't even ha!

HTTP:: Game Hunter Keep Track of Your Game Collection
--------
Although you never forget your true love, you must admit that with the constant development of the gaming industry, you sometimes find yourself in the situation of realizing how much you loved a game two years ago even if it now seems to be ancient history. The worse part is when you also discover that you have misplaced the CD, borrowed it and never got it back and so on. In the end, you find yourself mourning for games that are not available on the market anymore or spending perfectly good money on games that you already own.Since we have all learned our lesson on how many new and entertaining games can be released in a relatively short period of time, I believe a good game organizer is in order to be present on every game addict’s computer.

Pingie: HTTP:: Adam Lambert Sells Most Tickets for Idol Live Concerts

HTTP:: Adam Lambert Sells Most Tickets for Idol Live Concerts
--------
Music sales are going down and labels are taking up innovative measures of fighting recession and, implicitly, poor sales numbers, either with unique promotional campaigns or by means of including advertising on the album itself, like Def Jam announced it would do with Mariah Carey’s upcoming material. The one thing that seems to last in these financially troubled times is the Idol Live series of concerts, and that is mostly due to runner-up Adam Lambert, as USA Today informs. Numbers made public by Billboard and then cited by USA Today show that the tour, which features AI winner Kris Allen and nine other finalists, is actually faring just as well as the one from the previous year. On an average, the Idol Live tour sells 82 percent of tickets, grossing so far an estimated $11.2 million. If this does not sound as that much, Billboard, as cited by USA Today, assures us that it actually is, since most concerts or tours sell tickets only in a percentage of 60, with the rema!

Pingie: HTTP:: Planck Starts Observing the Beginning of the Universe

HTTP:: Planck Starts Observing the Beginning of the Universe
--------
The recently launched Planck telescope has just begun observing the early Universe, accumulating background radiation that was most likely created when the Universe first sprung into being. The mission is conducted by the European Space Agency (ESA), with vast collaboration from NASA. In addition to the observatory, the same Ariane 5 heavy-lift rocket also delivered the Herschel Space Telescope to a similar L2 Lagrangian orbital point. The main goal of the Planck mission is to analyze the cosmic microwave background (CMB), and determine how the Universe formed. Using complex and state-of-the-art scientific instruments, over the next few years, Planck will look at this background light, and record any small variations within it, which may hint at yet undiscovered phenomena that took place in the first few seconds after the Big Bang. These variations, if uncovered, could also lead astronomers to new theories about dark matter and dark energy, and explain a wide array of pecul!
iar events that astronomers cannot yet account for. The new observations, which began on August 13, are only part of a test trial, but, if all goes well, mission controllers announce that, over the next 15 months or so, two full-sky scans of the entire Universe will be conducted. Actual scientific data from the mission are not ex...

The Internet is always changing and the way that it's being used has shifted dramatically over the years. New data from Hitwise shows a big change in the popularity of several website categories, with entertainment-related sites now having 73 percent more visitors in the UK than business and other transactional sites.Robin Goad of Hitwise has shared a couple of charts that summarize the trend over the past three years. He grouped web sites in several categories, with the entertainment sites, like YouTube or BBC's iPlayer, which is only available in the UK, being the most popular, with 12.23 percent of the monthly visits having seen steady growth in the last few years. The second most popular category is made up of social networks and forums, now gathering 10.47 percent of the visits in the UK while also being the fastest growing category, which is no surprise with the huge growth sites like Facebook and Twitter, which is especially popular in the country, have seen recently!
.News and media sites, which include traditional news outlets as well as web-only organizations but not blogs, are the only other category to see growth in the past three years, having managed to attract 6.29 percent of the market. At the same time, what Hitwise calls “transactional” sites have all declined, with Business and finance sites seeing a small drop in their share of ...

HTTP:: Lady Gaga in Out Magazine on the Illusion of Art

She has often insisted that there was no fakery and no play-pretend to her outrageous onstage persona, that she is and will always be Lady Gaga no matter if the makeup and crazy outfits are on or not. With all this, the question of where Gaga the singer ends and art begins has not ceased to fascinate many. More importantly, does one really end for the other to begin, or are they one and the same? Out Magazine is the latest to try to decipher Gaga’s message and peek behind her poker face. From what she says, there is no boundary to set apart her as a singer and her as an object of art. Gaga, the magazine says, has moved past the traditional concept of pop artist, taking her music, breathing it in through every pore on her skin and, in the end, becoming it, like few other artists before have done. Gaga doesn’t just DO art, she IS a work of art herself â€" and she is quick to admit to it, as also are music critics who think they see in her and her career so far the adven!

Security experts from technology website Tweakers exposed Dutch local news agency GPD for having poor database, user and password management after having accessed the latter’s database. After a 24-hour warning, Tweakers made the vulnerability public and leaked information on how to access GPD's VIP phone numbers database.Tweakers mainly does software and hardware review, but when IT specialists discovered that the GPD internal database was accessible via the Internet, they went on to inspect the site's security measures. After various investigations, they found out that GPD's firewall and security barriers were full of holes, which permitted them to gain access to sensitive information inside the database. After they passed the login stage by guessing a simple password, they gained access to various VIP phone numbers stored on the news agency's server database through its internal Google search function. You can take a look at a screenshot taken by NOS news website below.!
"We exposed the problem at GPD's website because security for the site is so poor," said Tweakers editor-in-chief, Wilbert de Vries in an interview for Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, adding that "We didn't expose it until 24 hours after we had warned them about the problem."This is similar to an incident that occ...

As many fans must know, Jennie Garth of the original “90210” fame is married to Peter Facinelli, who will be seen come November reprising his role as Dr. Carlisle Cullen in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” Given this, it is not hard to believe she may have some inside knowledge into what goes on the set when the cameras are not rolling, especially on whether Robert Pattinson is dating Kristen Stewart or not, which is precisely what an unnamed New York newspaper did, as Radar Online informs. The other day, a quote from Garth came out in the media, in which she seemed to say, beyond any doubt, that, while she was not at liberty to disclose the identity of the woman who had all of Pattinson’s attention, she knew for a fact it was one of his co-stars. In the same quote, the actress also appeared to narrow down the possibilities to Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed, mentioning that she could not say specifically who it was because she would break her promise to her husband!
, Peter Facinelli. Radar managed to speak to Garth’s publicist and thus learned that the star was misquoted. “I know my client. She’s a veteran and she's an honest girl and too sweet to be misquoted like that.” Garth’s rep says for Radar. As per the same source, after the quote got out i...

Rune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moon is a role-playing video game that features heavy simulation aspects. It was developed by Neverland and published by Marvelous Interactive and Natsume for Nintendo's hugely successful DS handheld video game console. It was first launched in its native Japan on January 3, 2008, and reached North American shores on November 18, the same year. As of yet, the game hasn't been released in Europe or in other territories.The title focuses on delivering a fantasy farm-simulation experience and is part of the very successful Harvest Moon video game franchise, which has sold extremely well on the Nintendo DS in all of its iterations. Rune Factory 2 is, of course, the sequel to the first Rune Factory, which has gained critical acclaim for the introduction of the basic Harvest Moon recipe into a fantasy setting and letting players explore the open world of the game.The title stays true to the Harvest Moon recipe, as in ten seconds, ten in-game minu!
tes will pass, a trademark of the series. The player can go on to grow crops, but wielding the farm tools can decrease their stamina. The classic mechanic of buying animals has now been replaced by the task of defeating monsters in dungeons, similar to a lot of RPGs present on the Nintendo DS.

The regulations should specifically refer to DNA samples collected from healthy children, whose parents have signed them up for long-term studies, leading ethics experts say. The data should not be made public, and released in the scientific community until the children reach an age when they can give their consent for this to happen. The recommendations appear in yesterday's (August 13th) issue of the respected journal Science, Nature News informs. “Children should be able to decide, when they're mature enough, about their full or fuller involvement,” explains the McGill University Center of Genomics and Policy director Bartha Maria Knoppers, from Montreal, Canada. She is also one of the authors of the new paper.The expert believes that the new set of measures would help protect the privacy of children around the world who are involved in long-term studies. However, not everyone is pleased with the new proposals. Some say that the method is arbitrary, and that it could!
compromise the results of many long-term studies. And, because a lot of resources are invested in such research, that's a measure that experts cannot afford to take. According to Knoppers, some of the largest biobanks in the world today, including the National Children's Study in the United States and the Mother and Ch...

There are a lot of development studios out there, but one of the most respected is id Software, which is behind glorious franchises like Doom, Quake or Wolfenstein, all of which shaped the way shooters and games are played today. One of the main innovators from the studio is John Carmack, who has charted a big amount of success in the field. He recently talked about consoles and how they are interacting now. He also shed some light on the future and what it will hold in terms of new releases. He curiously mentioned that, when the next generation of platforms arrived, Sony would most certainly launch its new PlayStation before Microsoft's new Xbox console. “The whole jockeying for who's going to release the first next gen console is very interesting and pretty divorced from the technical side of things,” Carmack said. “Whether Sony wants to jump the gun to prevent the same sort of 360 lag from happening to them again seems likely.” Don't think that this means that!
new consoles will soon appear, as Carmack revealed that he and his colleagues would love to see the current devices live as long as possible. “As developers, we would really like to see this generation stretch as long as possible. We'd like to see it be quite a few more years before the ...

HTTP:: Substance for Selectively Killing Cancer Stem Cells Found
--------
Oncologists have for some time drawn attention to the fact that even the most potent forms of cancer therapies can have a risk of relapse, and that the return of the tumors is most likely caused by die-hard cells known as cancer stem cells. These are essentially the seeds of the disease, and there will always remain a risk of someone getting sick again if they are not destroyed. Now, experts believe they may have found a new drug, that allows them to target these stem cells selectively, and annihilate them.The cells that originally mutate and trigger the formation of tumors are the toughest ones. They are reportedly able to withstand even the largest amounts of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and drugs have little effect on them. Therefore, finding methods of destroying them alone, without invasive procedures to affect surrounding, healthy issue, has been a goal for oncologists.By using high-throughput screening methods, researchers at the MIT Whitehead Institute for Biomedi!
cal Research and the Broad Institute, and from the Harvard University, managed to discover a substance that is able to kill breast cancer stem cells in mouse models. The investigators are still uncertain whether the new drug will work as effectively in humans, but they argue that this is the best compound they cou...

Pingie: HTTP:: The Chance for Life May Be Higher than Thought

HTTP:: The Chance for Life May Be Higher than Thought
--------
For a few decades, those believing that the chances for life elsewhere in the Universe are small have made circulate a theory that backs up their claims, known as the anthropic argument. Essentially, it states that the period of time it takes life to evolve is longer than the period in a star's life when it can sustain it on planets around it, and that, therefore, complex life must be very rare. Now, a new study comes to question this established line of reasoning, and proposes that complex life may occur more often and under less conditions than first thought, Space informs. Astrophysicist Brandon Carter was the first to propose the anthropic argument back in 1983, after successfully conducting remarkable work in the field of anthropic principles back in the 1970s. The driving force behind his argument is the assumption that the life cycle of a star is completely independent from the time frame complex life needs to appear and develop. In a new scientific study, astrobiolo!
gist Milan M. Cirkovic and colleagues argue that this argument is obsolete, because it has been proven that no body in, for example, the solar system, is completely independent from others. “There are many different ways in which planets in our solar system are not isolated. We must not regard habitable planets as closed boxes. If...

HTTP:: Using Radars to Study Sea Wave Behavior
--------
Analyzing the behavior of sea waves is notoriously hard to do, and requires a bit of creative thinking on the part of scientists to perform. But experts at the Geesthacht GKSS Research Center, in Germany, have recently devised a new system of doing just that, which relies on radar antennas for studying the surface of waves around a station. The FINO3 research platform, currently located at the North Sea, is scheduled to house the first such specialized radar in a short while. The main goal of the instrument will be to determine the interactions between offshore wind power machines and swells.According to the scientists in charge of the project, the FINO3 will be used approximately 80 kilometres to the west of Sylt, a location where many offshore wind farms will dot the surface of the water in only a few years. The environmental consequences and technical risks associated with these constructions are still unknown, and finding them out will be one of the new radar's primary !
missions. Among other objectives, the experts mentioned monitoring changes in the sea swell, observing bird migration, and measuring lighting strike frequencies in the open sea. Suspended about 50 meters above sea level, on the FINO3 lattice mast, the new radar will for the first time provide individual wave tracking abilities, and will hopefu...
