Anti-racism group launch app to curb football abuse

Posted on Jul 30

Football anti-racism group Kick It Out on Monday launched a new mobile phone tool for fans and players to report racist or homophobic abuse, after a number of high-profile incidents last season.

The mobile phone application will allow fans and players to report abuse directly to Kick It Out, which will follow up the cases with the football authorities and, if necessary, the police.

"Part of the problems that were raised last season were players saying they had complained about an incident and nothing was done about it," said the organisation's chairman Herman Ouseley.

"Some of them never even found out about the outcome of their complaint, especially if it was not found in their favour because we had not been involved.

"Now if players have got a problem they will be able to contact us directly and, if they wish, anonymously, and we will follow through on the complaint.

"Fans will also be able to contact us if for some reason they don't feel the confidence to report something to a steward."

English football has been marred by incidents of racism on and off the pitch over the last two years, with the John Terry and Luis Suarez cases provoking criticism of Kick It Out's response by some players.

Ouseley hopes the new season of action will prompt clubs to take the fight against discrimination more seriously, rather than paying lip service to the battle against racism during the organisation's traditional two-week advertising campaign.

"We felt the old format was stale," he added.

"Clubs need to show they are being much more inclusive and reaching out to fans to show they are embracing everyone, and taking the responsibility for educating everyone - players, supporters and employees.

"If an incident does happen then clubs need to take responsibility and not blame someone else."

At least six killed in new Cairo violence

CAIRO (Reuters) - Six people were killed in Cairo on Tuesday in violence between supporters and opponents of deposed President Mohamed Mursi, state-run media reported.

The violence broke out before dawn near a Brotherhood protest at Cairo University, where Mursi supporters have been camped out since the army removed the Islamist politician from power on July 3 following protests against his rule.

The Brotherhood described it as an attack on peaceful protesters. Police sources said hundreds of Mursi supporters clashed with local residents, street vendors and others near the sit-in. They said gunshots were fired and stones were thrown.

The state-run Al-Ahram newspaper quoted a health ministry official as saying six people had been killed and a further 33 people were injured. It brings to nine the number of people killed in political violence in the last two days.

About 100 people have died in violence since the army deposed Mursi and replaced him with an interim administration led by the Adli Mansour, the head of the constitutional court. The Brotherhood accuses the army of orchestrating a coup.

The Brotherhood said on its website a total of seven "martyrs" had been killed overnight in two separate attacks on Mursi supporters, one at Cairo University and another on a march near a bigger sit-in in the north of the city.

The Brotherhood says it will maintain the sit-in until Mursi, held by the army in an unknown location since his overthrow, is reinstated.

"Leaders of the military coup continue to terrorize the peaceful protesters in Egypt," the Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party said in a statement.

Some residents close to the Brotherhood's main protest area in Nasr City have filed a complaint with the public prosecutor asking for the removal of the protesters. A security source said the case is expected to be taken to a court and ruled upon soon "to give the army a legal basis to end the protests".

The National Salvation Front, an alliance of liberal and leftist parties that supported Mursi's removal from power, condemned what it described as attacks by Brotherhood supporters on protesters over the last three weeks.

Braves 1B Freeman's All-Star status in question

By CHARLES ODUM

AP Sports Writer

Associated Press Sports

updated 11:30 a.m. ET July 14, 2013

ATLANTA (AP) - Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman has a thumb injury that is preventing him from playing Sunday and leaves his status for the All-Star game in question.

Freeman said Sunday he jammed his left thumb on the first play of Saturday night's 5-2 win over the Reds. Shortstop Andrelton Simmons fielded Chris Heisey's grounder and threw slightly wide of first base, forcing Freeman to catch the ball in Heisey's path. Heisey hit Freeman's glove and was out.

"I guess my thumb was in the wrong place," Freeman said. "It's just one of those freak injuries I seem to run into every year."

Freeman remained in the game and is wearing a soft splint on his hand on Sunday. He said there is "a little bit of tiny swelling" in the thumb.

"I can still bend it and do everything," Freeman said. "It's not too bad, so I'm just going to take a day off and see how it goes."

Freeman made the All-Star roster on the fan vote. He said he didn't know if he would be able to play in the game.

"Obviously, I hope to play but we'll see how it goes," Freeman said. "I've got to look out for the best interests of this team, so I've got to be available to play in the second half. If I can't play in the All-Star game, we're better off if I'm able to play in the second half."

Manager Fredi Gonzalez said Freeman could receive treatment for the injury while in New York for the All-Star game.

"I think he needs to go," Gonzalez said. "If he can participate, participate. Hell, yeah! You never know when that chance will come again."

Evan Gattis, who had been out since June 18 with a right oblique strain, was activated from the 15-day disabled list and is starting at first base.

Gattis came off the DL after playing only two games in his injury rehabilitation stint with Triple-A Gwinnett. The original plan had been for Gattis to remain with Gwinnett through Sunday.

"It was good," Gattis said of his rehab stint. "I felt good to square up the ball last night. That tells me I'm ready."

Gattis, whose primary position is catcher, has started 11 games in left field and only three games at first base.

B.J. Upton, who left Friday night's game with a right adductor muscle strain, was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Saturday.

"We've got a break coming up and I just need a little more time to get healthy," Upton said, adding his recovery "is not a thing that's going to happen immediately."

Justin Upton also left Friday night's game with what was announced as a left calf strain. On Sunday, Gonzalez said team doctors have concluded the injury was just a severe cramp.

Gonzalez said Justin Upton would be available in an emergency situation on Sunday.

The Braves expect a third injured starting outfielder, Jason Heyward, to recover from his strained right hamstring without being placed on the disabled list.

The Braves' patchwork outfield of Jose Constanza, Reed Johnson and rookie Joey Terdoslavich combined for seven hits Saturday night and is starting again Sunday.

Latest revision as of 14:26, 15 July 2013

Algumas aplica??es precisam de acesso a dados confidenciais. Este artigo mostra como criar um janela de para fornecer dados confidenciais (como senhas) para a aplica??o.

[edit] Introdu??o

Implementando uma p?gina de acesso para aplica??es de Windows Phone pode causar v?rios problemas: ? dif?cil de controlar a navigation stack e cumprir os requisitos de armazenamento relativas ? navega??o. Isto ? em parte porque n?o existe um m?todo para sair de um aplicativo no caso de uma senha errada. ? necess?rio remover a p?gina de login da pilha p?gina (usando NavigationService.RemoveBackEntry, um m?todo adicionado na vers?o Mango) de modo que o aplicativo pode ser encerrado sem ultrapassar a p?gina de login novamente ao pressionar o bot?o de volta.

[edit] Solu??o

Uma maneira mais f?cil ? usar um pop-up criados dinamicamente no topo da p?gina principal.

Tal como ilustrado abaixo, o pop-up ? criado no "event's handler" Loaded da p?gina:

private void MainPage_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (!app.IsAuthenticated)
{
p = new Popup();
LayoutRoot.Children.Add(p);
ApplicationBar.IsVisible = false;
?
// Set where the popup will show up on the screen.
p.VerticalOffset = 60;
p.HorizontalOffset = 25;
?
Border border = new Border();
border.BorderBrush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.White);
border.BorderThickness = new Thickness(5.0);
?
StackPanel panel1 = new StackPanel();
panel1.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black);
panel1.Width = LayoutRoot.ActualWidth - 2 * p.HorizontalOffset;
?
Button button1 = new Button();
button1.Content = "OK";
button1.Margin = new Thickness(5.0);
button1.Click += new RoutedEventHandler(loginbutton_Click);
TextBlock textblock1 = new TextBlock();
textblock1.TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap;
if (app.FirstRun)
textblock1.Text = "Please enter your choice of a password:";
else
textblock1.Text = "Please enter your password";
textblock1.Margin = new Thickness(5.0);
textblock1.FontSize = 30;
textblock1.Foreground = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.White);
pb = new PasswordBox();
pb.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(pb_KeyDown);
panel1.Children.Add(textblock1);
panel1.Children.Add(pb);
if (app.FirstRun)
{
TextBlock textblock2 = new TextBlock();
textblock2.TextWrapping = textblock1.TextWrapping;
textblock2.Margin = textblock1.Margin;
textblock2.FontSize = textblock1.FontSize;
textblock2.Foreground = textblock1.Foreground;
textblock2.Text = "Please repeat the password";
pb2 = new PasswordBox();
panel1.Children.Add(textblock2);
panel1.Children.Add(pb2);
}
panel1.Children.Add(button1);
border.Child = panel1;
?
// Set the Child property of Popup to the border 
// which contains a stackpanel, textblock and button.
p.Child = border;
?
// Open the popup.
p.IsOpen = true;
pb.Focus();
}
else
// Set the data context of the listbox control to the sample data
DataContext = App.ViewModel;
}

A verifica??o da password acontece no login, isto ?, quando o loginbutton_Click ocorre (o bot?o Ok ? precisionado). Se a palavra-passe n?o estiver correcta o utilizador pode voltar a inserir a palavra-passe.

private void loginbutton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// Close the popup.
p.IsOpen = false;
if (app.FirstRun)
{
if (!pb.Password.Equals(pb2.Password))
{
MessageBox.Show("The passwords do not match. Please try again.");
p.IsOpen = true;
pb.Password = "";
pb2.Password = "";
pb.Focus();
return;
}
app.PwdHash = CryptoUtil.GetHashCode(pb.Password);
app.IsAuthenticated = true;
app.FirstRun = false;
App.ViewModel.LoadData();
}
else
app.IsAuthenticated = CryptoUtil.GetHashCode(pb.Password).CompareTo(app.PwdHash) == 0;
?
if (app.IsAuthenticated)
{
DataContext = App.ViewModel;
ApplicationBar.IsVisible = true;
}
else
{
tb = new TextBlock();
tb.Text = "Wrong password.";
tb.FontSize = 36;
tb.Foreground = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
tb.Margin = new Thickness(12);
tb.SetValue(Grid.RowProperty, 2);
LayoutRoot.Children.Add(tb);
ApplicationBar.IsVisible = true;
(ApplicationBar.MenuItems[0] as ApplicationBarMenuItem).IsEnabled = false;
?
DataContext = null;
}
}

Pressionando a tecla "Enter", o m?todo loginbutton_Click ser? invocado e o login ser? efetuado.

void pb_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Key == Key.Enter) // Enter equal OK button
loginbutton_Click(this, new RoutedEventArgs());
}

Quando a tecla "Back" ? pressionada e o popup est? aberta, a palavra passe ser? verificada.

private void PhoneApplicationPage_BackKeyPress(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
{
if (p.IsOpen)
{ // if the popup is still there... emulate OK button click
loginbutton_Click(this, new RoutedEventArgs());
e.Cancel = true;
}
}

Durante a primeira vez que a aplica??o corre, a palavra passe ? requerida ao utilizador. A palavra-passe em si n?o ? armazenado no aplicativo, mas sim do c?digo hash ? armazenado. Em sucessivas ocasi?es, o hash para a senha digitada ? calculado e comparado com o valor hash armazenado. Consultar How to encrypt your application data in Windows Phone (*)

[edit] C?digo exemplo

O c?digo para a janela de acesso foi adicionado ao exemplo Media:EncryptionSample.zip do artigo How to encrypt your application data in Windows Phone (*).

Keepin' it real fake: HTC One gets a convincing plastic clone (video)

We hate to say this, but the KIRF market is often a good indicator of how popular certain devices are, hence the plentiful fake iPhones and Galaxy phones in China. (Meanwhile, MediaTek is shamelessly cashing in as it ships its SoCs to those cloning factories.) Now, we're not saying the HTC One doesn't have any clones, but most of those we've seen weren't very convincing -- they were either of different sizes or had very poor build quality. But we eventually stumbled upon a pretty good fake in Huaqiangbei.

The offending device is pictured above on the left. Externally, it bears a disgustingly strong resemblance to the real deal thanks to the same 4.7-inch screen size, the same curved back, the same micro-SIM tray, the same dual-soft-key layout and even the same metallic chamfer on the front. But if you look closer or touch it even, the tell-tale signs start to show up. See for yourself in the gallery below -- the fake One is to the left or on top of the real thing.

SEC bans three ex-Madoff employees from securities industry

By Suzanne Barlyn

(Reuters) - The Securities and Exchange Commission has barred three former employees of Bernard Madoff's now defunct brokerage and investment advisory firm from the securities industry for assisting the convicted Ponzi schemer with his multi-billion dollar scam, according to orders from the agency.

The SEC released orders late Thursday permanently barring David Kugel, Eric Lipkin and Enrica Cotellessa-Pitz. The three former employees of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC each agreed to the sanction to settle civil proceedings started by the agency in 2011.

Lipkin's lawyer declined to comment, while Cotellessa-Pitz's lawyer did not immediately return a call requesting comment. Kugel could not immediately be reached for comment.

In 2011, the three pleaded guilty in related criminal cases for their roles in Madoff's $65 billion Ponzi scheme. The charges included fraud and falsifying records. Kugel will be sentenced in October, according to court records. Lipkin and Cotellessa-Pitz will be sentenced in December.

Madoff, the Ponzi scheme's chief architect, pleaded guilty in March 2009 and is serving a 150-year sentence in a federal prison.

Lipkin, 38, of Ridgewood, New Jersey, assisted Madoff for more than ten years by, among other things, helping employees to carry out a fictitious investing strategy that Madoff claimed to pursue on behalf of his clients, the SEC wrote in one of the civil orders dated Thursday. Kugel, 67, a former trader and compliance analyst from Manhasset, New York, helped create fictional trades and account statements, according to the SEC.

Cotellessa-Pitz, 54, worked at the firm for more than 30 years. She helped falsify accounting records and financial statements in order to mislead SEC examiners, the agency wrote.

Exclusive: One Call Care for sale for more than $1.5 billion: sources

By Soyoung Kim and Greg Roumeliotis

NEW YORK (Reuters) - One Call Care Management Inc, a medical cost containment services company owned by Odyssey Investment Partners LLC, is exploring a sale that may fetch more than $1.5 billion, according to two people familiar with the matter.

One Call Care Management has asked Jefferies Group LLC to handle the sale process and contact potential buyers, including private equity firms and companies in the industry, the sources said this week. They requested anonymity because the sale process is not public.

One Call, Odyssey and Jefferies declined to comment.

One Call provides workers' healthcare compensation payors, such as insurance companies, with discounted access to diagnostic radiology and neurodiagnostics providers.

The Parsippany, New Jersey-based company makes its money on the spread between the prices charged to these payors and the discounted prices contracted with providers and vendors in its network.

Odyssey, a New York-based private equity firm, acquired One Call Medical Inc in 2009 and merged it with industry peer MSC Care Management Inc in 2012.

One Call's $529 million acquisition of MSC was made possible partly through a $210 million senior unsecured term loan held by GSO Capital Partners, the credit investment arm of Blackstone Group LP , which also invested in One Call Care Management's equity, according to credit research notes issued at the time.

Besides the MSC merger, One Call had made several other acquisitions to expand its networks under Odyssey's ownership. Last week, the company said it would acquire smaller peer TechHealth Inc.

In August, Standard & Poor's estimated One Call's 2012 earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization at $100 million to $110 million. The people familiar with the matter said this week that the company's 2013 EBITDA was seen at between $130 million and $150 million.

Odyssey is also looking at selling another of its business services companies, Evans Analytical Group LLC, two other people familiar with the matter said this week.

Odyssey, which manages more than $3 billion of capital in three private equity funds, took Evans Analytical private for 86.8 million pounds ($130 million) in 2008.

A representative for Santa Clara, California-based Evans, which provides analytical and testing services for materials, microchips and agrochemicals, did not respond to a request for comment on that sale process.

GOP Sen. Roy Blunt Says Obama Didn?t Use the IRS to Target Political Enemies

Sen. Roy Blunt says that in retrospect he doesn?t believe President Barack Obama was responsible for the Internal Revenue Service targeting conservative groups and any allegations Obama orchestrated that attack were unwarranted, the New York Times reported.

?Presidents have always been very careful about maintaining the appearance of keeping hands off the I.R.S.,? Blunt said. ?I don?t have any reason to believe there wasn?t targeting of conservatives, but it might well have been a lot more than that as well.?

The IRS denied the targeting of tea party groups was mandated by the White House, but many in the GOP have been unable to believe that Obama was not aware of the practice.

As more information is reported about the nature of what the IRS did, it is becoming clear that many liberal groups were also denied tax-exempt status or made to ask a series of drawn-out ancillary questions during the application process.

In late June, it was reported that Rep. Darrell Issa, House Oversight Committee Chairman, told the Treasury office to exclude liberal groups from the May audit of the Internal Revenue Service, according to The Hill.

Now the GOP is more interested in denying allegations that Obama had anything to do with the IRS actions.

In May, the IRS admitted it targeted liberal groups as well as conservative. Progressive group Progress Texas and?Clean Elections Texas, which aims to start a public fund for campaigns, were both given the same line of questioning from the IRS office as Tea Party groups.?

While none of the Republican groups had their applications rejected by the IRS,?Democratic group Emerge America, which trains and encourages women to run for office, was actually denied tax-exempt status.

?We didn?t even get the opportunity to answer questions,? said Karen Middleton, president of Emerge America. ?We would have welcomed the opportunity to respond to a questionnaire.? the national organization was shocked that the agency revoked approvals on Oct 21, 2011.

High Achievers More Prone to Jealousy on Facebook

People who are high-achieving in academics may be more prone to feelings of romantic jealousy than those who are less studious, new research suggests.

In several studies of undergraduate students, researchers found that the higher a student's grade point average (GPA), the greater their levels of "Facebook jealousy" were.

There's no one definition of Facebook jealousy, but it's sometimes referred to as a phenomenon in which misunderstandings on the social network lead to jealousy among people in romantic relationships.

Participants were asked to envision several hypothetical scenarios, such as discovering a message in their partner's Facebook inbox from a person of the opposite sex that reads "What are you up to later?" (An intentionally ambiguous message.)

Women had higher levels of Facebook jealousy than men, a finding that confirms research from earlier studies. [See: Busted! 6 Gender Myths in the Bedroom & Beyond].

The findings regarding GPA are preliminary, and the researchers still need to tease out the reason for the possible link, said study researcher Denise Friedman, an associate professor of psychology at Roanoke College in Salem, Va.

But it may be that people with high GPAs tend to have a personality type that makes them more prone to jealousy.

"Students with higher GPAs are often more conscientious, show greater self-control and tend to be perfectionistic," Friedman said. "The perceived infidelity likely upsets their attempts at perfection across the board."

The researchers also tested whether adding different emoticons (such as symbols of smiley or winking faces) after the ambiguous message would affect jealousy levels. While adding a winking emoticon had no effect on women's jealousy level, men were more jealous when the message had a winking emoticon, as opposed to no emoticon.

"Evolutionary work suggests men are more jealous of sexual infidelity, while women are more jealous of emotional infidelity," Friedman said. "The winking emoticon was most likely perceived as flirtatious, perhaps even sexually suggestive, which may explain why men were more jealous in this condition," she said.

The researchers plan to publish their findings in a peer-reviewed journal this summer. Some of the findings were presented at the Association for Psychology Science meeting in May.

Treating oil spills with chemical dispersants: Is the cure worse than the ailment?

[unable to retrieve full-text content]Treating oil spills at sea with chemical dispersants is detrimental to European sea bass. A new study suggests that although chemical dispersants may reduce problems for surface animals, the increased contamination under the water reduces the ability for fish and other organisms to cope with subsequent environmental challenges.

Is there a way to watch live tv on my android tablet?

I've been looking for ways to watch current live tv on my samsung galaxy tablet since I don't have cable anymore there's no way for me to watch tv. Does anyone know of a good app or perhaps something I can download onto my tablet to watch live tv?

TV wasn't available on an Android tablet. However, can we install a 3rd Party Device that attaches pad tv tuner to our tablet and allow us to watch TV. It looks cheap and flimsy and probably is full of static... but there is a device we can buy.

Hardware Round-up: Tizen in trouble, Sony's new monster phone, and Barnes & Noble price cuts

Welcome to another round-up of the latest news in the mobile industry.

Reading this article is the best way to keep up to speed on the latest handset-related rumours, special network deals, and Apple speculation.

In terms of handset rumours, we have some rather exciting information about Sony's new flagship smartphone that could be with us as soon as September.

There's also news of the latest 4G developments from EE, another price cut for those wonderful Nook HD tablets, and Samsung's plan to one day move away from Android.

This is the news...

Samsung's 'Plan B' put on the backburner?

Samsung's Galaxy S4 is many things to many people.

To Samsung', however, its new flagship smartphone represents a massive opportunity. And not just in the way you'd think.

The theory goes something like this: should Sammy's relationship with Google sour for any reason, The Big S could conceivably turn to the Tizen OS.

And thanks to the Galaxy S4's custom user interface, bespoke icons, and S-Apps, Samsung made sure that people wouldn't be too shocked if Sammy suddenly went down the Tizen route and threw in its lot there.

That's the theory.

If that above tweet is anything to go by, though, it appears that Samsung's backup plan might be faltering.

Here are some MORE details about Sony's new flagship blower

Widely expected to be Sony's new flagship smartphone, the so-called "Honami" will reportedly be available this September.

With a possible 20-megapixel camera; two or even four speakers; a 5-inch Triluminos full HD screen; 4G LTE Advanced support (for speeds of up to 150Mbps); and even 4K (Ultra HD) video recording up its sleeve, this is going to be quite a beast.

In a few leaked screen images, we can spy an all-new camera interface, with many new photographic modes visible, including augmented reality and 'time shift' features.

We can also spot a new system font, revised icons, all-new themes, brand-new menu colours, and updated Sony apps.

The Honami will also boast the same water resistance chops as Sony's other new models. Oh, and a bigger battery.

Nook HD+ is now even cheaper!

Barnes & Noble is continuing to slash pounds off the RRP of its Nook HD tablet line.

You can now snap up the 8GB 7-inch Nook HD for just ?99 (8GB model) and the 16GB Nook HD for ?129. The 16GB 9-inch Nook HD+ is down to ?149, while the 32GB model now retails for ?179.

Even though an updated Nexus 7 is likely to be announced at the end of July, the Nook HD still represents the best VfM on an Android tablet.

That is unless there's a further price cut in the next few weeks...

EE goes supersonic

EE is the UK's only current 4G network. Fact #1.

EE is trying to keep one step ahead of whatever its rivals have planned for their autumn LTE launches. Fact #2.

To that end, EE doubled the data speeds in 12 UK cities earlier this week.

So, residents of London, Birmingham, and Cardiff, for example, can now benefit from mobile internet speeds of up to 150Mbps.

Gee whiz.

Furthermore, EE's new Cash On Tap service will soon enable anyone with a Galaxy S3, S4, or Sony Xperia SP on EE to make contactless payments of up to ?20 in over 200,000 outlets using the phone as a virtual debit card.

Feeding galaxy caught in distant searchlight

[unable to retrieve full-text content]Astronomers have spotted a distant galaxy hungrily snacking on nearby gas. Gas is seen to fall inwards towards the galaxy, creating a flow that both fuels star formation and drives the galaxy's rotation. This is the best direct observational evidence so far supporting the theory that galaxies pull in and devour nearby material in order to grow and form stars.

Engrade Lands $5M From Javelin, Samsung And Others To Help Schools Unify Learning Data, Systems In One Platform

Back in 2003, annoyed with his high school's loyalty to paper and the inability to view his grades online as a result, Bri Holt decided to build his own online gradebook that any student or teacher could use for free. He eventually graduated and moved onto other things, and usually that's the end of the story. But thanks to the dearth of digital tools in education, over the next seven-odd years, the simple gradebook app grew of its own accord, steadily gaining traction among teachers.
