Science/Technology / Tech!!!intel Tells Stories That Go Beyond Chips by Lordbrave(m): 11:04am On Jun 27, 2016
Advertising
By ROB WALKER
MAYBE you associate Intelwith the processor that makes your laptop work. On one hand, that’s a triumph of branding: For a slogan from a company that doesn’t actually sell directly to consumers, “Intel Inside” is a familiar idea.

On the other hand, it’s a potential problem. Years after the peak of the so-called Wintel era — when PCs with Windows operating systems and Intel chips dominated — Intel considers itself as a much more diversified technology creator and wants consumers to see it that way, too.

Intel’s effort to shift that brand perception has been going on for a couple of years. But perhaps the most interesting component of this push is only now establishing itself: an internal advertising group, formally started in February 2015, that is in a unique position to crank out stories promoting the most innovative happenings associated with Intel. In an amusing echo of the Wintel era, it is called Agency Inside.

This internal creative group is on track to have 90 employees by the end of the year, according to Teresa Herd, the Intel global creative director heading the enterprise. The company has also started an internal video and digital studio, Intel Global Production Labs, led by Yogiraj Graham. These entities have produced a slew of original content and have played a crucial role in some of Intel’s most mainstream branding efforts.

A video about a woman in India with an epileptic son who used an Intel Edison (a stamp-size minicomputer designed for the inventor audience) as a component in devising a glove that can detect oncoming epilepsy episodes will be released online on Monday.

The big picture, according to Intel’s chief marketing officer, Steven Fund — who has worked at Procter & Gamble, Pepsi and Staples — is that Intel wasn’t “getting credit for all the experiences that we enable.” Not enough people realize, he said, that Intel’s various processors and other technologies beyond PC chips play some role in all sorts of creative experiments in realms including fashion and art and science and medicine.

“We were marketing ourselves as an ingredient brand,” said Mr. Fund, who has been with Intel since 2014. He said Intel had become so associated with PCs that the company was “a little bit of a victim of our branding success with ‘Intel Inside.’”

Thus Intel altered its broader marketing. The official “Intel swirl” logo is now punctuated by the slogan “experience what’s inside” — to shift the emphasis to end results from intrinsic functionality. Working with a new outside agency, McGarryBowen, it released a splashy TV spot, “Anthem,” this year, specifically to showcase the sheer diversity of cool-looking stuff that Intel tech had helped make happen.

Intel, Mr. Fund said, “decided to bring a lot of advertising in-house,” and hired Ms. Herd, then working at Staples, to oversee that effort. (Mr. Fund noted that Intel continued to work with outside agencies as well: “It’s a good mash-up, if you will.”)

Ms. Herd says her team operates much like an external agency — by responding to the marketing needs of various departments — but enjoys far greater access to current and future projects at the company that, as she put it, “nobody else knows about.” Efficiency aside, this is also an appealing situation for those she’s recruiting for the creative department.

A series of videos created around the theme “Experience Amazing” went deeper into the stories of some of the projects highlighted in the “Anthem” spot. For example, a clip about participants in a solar-car contest, who used Intel technology in testing and refining their entry, has more than two million views on YouTube. Another,about a dress adorned with “proximity-activated” mechanical butterflies that hover and return to the garment through a design that relies partly on an Intel Edison chip, has about 1.5 million views.

Another series, “Meet The Makers,” tells short, documentary-style stories — such as a scientist’s efforts to understand the decline in the bee population by tracking the insects with tiny Intel-powered “backpacks,” and an eighth-grader’s creation of a low-cost Braille printer, using an Edison chip.

So far, Agency Inside’s focus isn’t broadcast spots; these two- or three-minute videos are distributed and promoted through social media and Intel’s own online publication, iQ, which is available in 17 languages and, the company says, seen by more than one million people a month. The idea is to promote Intel within cultural-interest industries that are not necessarily tech-based, such as fashion, music and sports.

Nairaland / General / Hmmm!!!pope Francis Says The Church Should Ask Forgiveness From Gays For Past Tr by Lordbrave(m): 10:04am On Jun 27, 2016
Despite the bible condemning Homosexuality in Leviticus 18:22, 'You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.'(NIV version), the leader of the Roman Catholic church Pope Francis has made some controversial statements saying that the Roman catholic church should apologize to gays for offending them.

While on a press conference aboard the Papal Plane on his way from Armenia, Pope Francis responded to a question from a journalist about a German Cardinal who said the Catholic Church should apologize for being "very negative" about gays.
The Pope was also asked, by the same journalist, whether Christians bear some blame for hatred toward the LGBT community, as horrifically demonstrated in the Orlando massacre at a gay night club that killed 49 people on June 12.

Science/Technology / Mark Zuckerberg Covers His Laptop Camera by Lordbrave(m): 9:53am On Jun 23, 2016
Mark Zuckerberg is one of the most powerful men in the world because billions of people give Facebook, which he founded, free access to their personal data. In return, users receive carefully curated snapshots of his life: baby photos, mundane office tours and the occasional 5K.

On Tuesday, observers were reminded that Mr. Zuckerberg, 32, is not just a normal guy who enjoys running and quiet dinners with friends. In a photoposted to his Facebook account, he celebrated the growing user base of Instagram, which is owned by Facebook. An eagle-eyed Twitter user named Chris Olson noticed that in the image’s background, his laptop camera and microphone jack appeared to be covered with tape.

Other publications, including Gizmodo, used the tweet to raise the question: Was this paranoia, or just good practice?


The taped-over camera and microphone jack are usually a signal that someone is concerned, perhaps only vaguely, about hackers’ gaining access to his or her devices by using remote-access trojans— a process called “ratting.” (Remote access is not limited to ratters: According to a cache of National Security Agency documents leaked by Edward J. Snowden, at least two government-designed programs were devised to take over computer cameras and microphones.)

Security experts supported the taping, for a few good reasons:

• The first is that Mr. Zuckerberg is a high-value target.

“I think Zuckerberg is sensible to take these precautions,” Graham Cluley, an online security expert and consultant, wrote in an email Wednesday. “As well as intelligence agencies and conventional online criminals who might be interested in targeting his billions, there are no doubt plenty of mischievous hackers who would find it amusing to spy upon such a high-profile figure.”

• The second is that covering photo, video and audio portals has long been a basic and cheap security safeguard.


“Covering the camera is a very common security measure,” Lysa Myers, a security researcher at the data security firm ESET, said in an email. “If you were to walk around a security conference, you would have an easier time counting devices that don’t have something over the camera.”

• Third, Mr. Zuckerberg is not immune to security breaches.

A recent hacking of his Twitter and LinkedIn accounts shows that he most likely committed two basic privacy faux pas: He may have used the same password across several websites and did not use two-factor authentication.

Judging from his photo, however, it appears that Mr. Zuckerberg was taking simple precautions to protect himself from anyone who may try to gain remote access. The practice is fairly technologically simple: Hackers trick people into clicking on links or unfamiliar websites containing malwarethat allows them access to the devices.

Mr. Zuckerberg is not the only high-profile case: James Comey, the director of the F.B.I., also puts tape over his computer’s webcam, for surprisingly simple reasons, according to NPR:

Vanguard reports that Kanu’s motion, comprising an abrupt change of counsel by the second defendant, Benjamin Madubugwu, yesterday, delayed his treason and felony trial. While, the motion was not moved, the document in court prayed for “an order disqualifying himself from further proceeding in this matter” on the ground of bias against the defendants.It noted that an official complaint letter had been sent to the National Judicial Council (NJC) with shows marked NJ1 and NJ2 demonstrating manifest case of bias in the conduct of the case and other issues that are inappropriate to mention in an affidavit. However, Kanu, David Nwawuisi and Madubugwu, have dragged Justice John Tsoho, before the National Judicial Council (NJC).

A police constable killed his girlfriend and ex-girlfriend and then turned his gun on himself, Daily Sun SA, reports.

Leah then learned that the constable, who cannot be named as his family has not yet been informed of his death, had a new girlfriend, Buhle Mabena (18).

"Mahlangu-Magwala went to his house for a while before returning to the neighbour’s house. Shortly after her visit they heard the constable and Mabena arguing," said Raburabu.

During the argument a gun went off. The neighbour and Mahlangu-Magwala rushed over to see what had happened.

The teenager who was set to graduate high school this month, was knifed multiple times in his chest late on Friday, police said.
The teen’s mother, Angela Ducasse, while weeping said:
“The homeless guy wanted more.” “He died because of $2. I can’t believe he’s gone.”

Nairaland / General / 12 Years Old Boy Stroke His Eye With A Hook by Lordbrave(m): 11:25pm On Jun 13, 2016
Doctors in India have miraculously saved the eye of a boy that had been pierced by an iron hook used in meat butchers.

According to Dailymail, 12-year-old Md Baba Qureshi, from Hyderabad, in southern India, was playing at a butchery when the hook – used to hang up mutton in traditional Indian meat stores – suddenly pierced his left eye and entered his brain.

The thick rod had entered his orbit cavity but his eyeball remained intact. It had also penetrated 15cm deep into his brain. He remained conscious throughout but his eye was bleeding profusely and he was crying in pain.

While his family quickly rushed him to Osmania General Hospital, in Hyderabad, there was a risk he could either lose his eye or be brain damaged.

Nairaland / General / Google Co-founder Larry Page Spends Over $100m To Build Flying Cars by Lordbrave(m): 11:13pm On Jun 13, 2016
The difference between the extra wealthy among us and the common ones among us is not only financial; guess it is very much psychological as well. This is necessarily true because the brains of the rich dance to hard metal music coming from the instruments of jingling coins in their pockets. while the poor’s brains can only manage Acapella as no instruments are really playing in their pockets. This is why to some spending $200m on a private yacht is as mad as asking the Pope for a cigarette on TV!



And this is exactly the supposedly “weird” thing Google co-founder Larry Page is doing. It has been revealed that Larry Page has been secretly funding two flying-car companies, going by confirmations from two people who are very close with the firms.

It has been confidently revealed that Page owns Zee.Aero Inc., some of whose employees running inti 150 hold test on prototype aircraft in rural California, as well as a smaller startup tagged Kitty Hawk which is ambitiously bent on realizing its own design for a flying car.

According to Bloomberg, Larry Page has spent over $100m funding these two start-ups as he hopes to realize his unique dreams of a flying car.

College students have long had a knack for contests of endurance. Read: all-nighters, keg stands, the “five-year plan,” etc.

Now one California postgrad has applied that principle to something actually useful: a battery that lasts forever.

While “playing around” during an experiment with highly conductive battery components called nanowires, UC Irvine student Mya Le Thai coated one of the golden wires in a Plexiglass-like gel.

WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. has significantly increased its use of stings in terrorism cases, employing agents and informants to pose as jihadists, bomb makers, gun dealers or online “friends” in hundreds of investigations into Americans suspected of supporting the Islamic State, records and interviews show.

Undercover operations, once seen as a last resort, are now used in about two of every three prosecutions involving people suspected of supporting the Islamic State, a sharp rise in the span of just two years, according to a New York Times analysis. Charges have been brought against nearly 90 Americans believed to be linked to the group.
