Olivia Wilde Expecting a baby soon

Olivia Wilde 29 is expecting a baby with her fiance Jason Sudeikis. People got the scoop but doesn’t say how far along Olivia is in her pregnancy. It must not be too far because she wasn’t showing at all a few weeks ago at the Her premiere. She’s probably just reached the second trimester, which is the time a lot of women feel comfortable making an announcement. Will she and Jason get hitched before the baby is born, or will they still have a long engagement? Who knows, but suddenly it’s like Olivia’s professed fried PB&J cravings make total sense

Google's Instant Pages,Voice Search & Search By Image

Google has come up with yet another advanced feature called Instant Pages that predicts the link users wants to use and begins fetching its data – even before the user has clicked on the link. The new feature, expected to save 2 to 5 seconds on search query time, is based on Google Instant, which furnishes search results even before the user has finished typing the query or pressed the enter key. Google Instant is likely to be included in the newest test version of Google Chrome browser.

Apart from Instant Pages, Google has also unveiled two more major updates to its search engine – Google Voice Search and Google Search By Image. Voice Search allows users to search by just speaking the search keywords. The feature will be available to Chrome users initially. The feature only accepts voice in English language for now and is likely to support other languages in near future as per Google.

Google Search By Image ensures users can search an image by just dragging the sample of the image to be searched in the search engine box. After having dragged the image, the search engine searches similar images. If you are searching for the Eiffel Tower image, just drag and drop the image to the search engine box, and you will be served with the results. Google, however, has made it clear that the new image search feature will not support face recognition technology.

Google, which makes most of its revenues through search-based advertising, is enriching its Internet applications as it faces stiff competition from Bing. The Microsoft search engine is gaining popularity worldwide mainly due to its innovative Internet features. Several reports have also confirmed the growth in Bing's share in search engine space

Facebook Working on a Social Jobs Board

Facebook may be working on a new jobs board feature, according to a new report by the WSJ. It will essentially act as a job postings aggregator and make them available to Facebook users.

With this move, Facebook is trying to leverage the power of social to enter the job search market. Instead of cutting off popular job search apps like BranchOut and JobVite on its platform, it is going to involve them in the new service. The new job board may directly compete with LinkedIn.

It’s not one of Facebook’s core focuses for now. It could initially be used just to drive user engagement on the website. However, if it eventually takes off, it could generate a sizeable amount of revenue for Facebook, as recruitment solutions are a huge market.

While it is expected to be a standalone section of the site initially, it may be integrated into a user’s News Feed going forward.

Given Facebook’s massive user base, this could be the greatest threat LinkedIn has ever faced. Even apps like BranchOut and GlassDoor on Facebook have amassed a sizable user base in a matter of days due to the inherent virality or connectedness of the network. Since this is Facebook’s own baby, it could be reasonably expected to do even better.

Dead Sea Scrolls


Five of the Dead Sea Scrolls are available to browse for free online, thanks to a joint project between Google and the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. The scrolls, which are written on papyrus and parchment, are believed to date back to 150BC and contain the oldest copies of many Biblical texts. Google's ultra-high resolution scanning lets you pick out every crease and blemish in each scroll, and helpfully provides an instant English translation when you highlight a section.

History of places from above



Google Earth also features a 'Historical imagery' tool that lets you see how an area has changed over time. When you're viewing a place from above, click the clock icon on the toolbar and drag the slider bar to the left to move back in time or to the right to move forward. The aerial photography will change accordingly, where available, and sometimes the imagery goes back as far as the 1930s.

PSA: Which iOS 6 features can my device run?

So you're eagerly awaiting iOS 6 in the fall, but you'd like to know just how many features you'll end up skipping if you cling on to your existing iPad, iPhone or iPod touch for one more generation. Apple has gone to the trouble of alerting would-be upgraders just what features they'll get when they check for the update this fall, and we've compiled it in a chart for an at-a-glance view of what you'll need. The short answer: you'll want an iPhone 4S if you're craving every iOS 6 feature. Some feature gaps are defined by obvious differences like the absence of cellular hardware, but the performance limits of the iPhone 3GS or fourth-generation iPod touch turn their upgrades into a patchwork. There's also a pair of questions about iPod touch support and whether or not "iPhone 4 or later" explicitly rules out the media player; we'll update should we know more. Either way, it's evident that Apple is bending over backwards to support burgeoning markets, but also that anyone who bought in 2010 or earlier is feeling the pressure to pick up something new -- especially original iPad owners, who can't upgrade at all.

Google Says No to Floating AdSense Ads

floating ads that actually move with you as you scroll through the page. Some floating ads run across the screen and jump in your face.

One would immediately think that floating your AdSense ads in this manner are totally against Google's terms of service.
Why? Because you cannot bring crazy attention to your ads, which drive people to click on them even if they may not necessary mean to.

AdSensePro Jordan, an official Google AdSense representative laid down the law on this in a Google Groups thread, saying they are not allowed:

I've checked with our policy specialists and placing Google ads in a floating script would be a violation of AdSense policy.

Thanks for double-checking before implementing, everyone. Also please feel free to link other users to this thread if they want official confirmation of the policy.

Apple intros new iPad Smart Case

Apple intros new iPad Smart Case, clever enough to cover both sides

And we're still not done. A new iPad case has managed to sneak onto the Apple Store's online shelves, and it'll protect your precious slab on both the back and front. The Smart Case appears to augment last year's Smart Cover with an additional (polyurethane hardshell) coating for the back of your iPad.



Priced at just under $50, the case fits both second and third-generation iPads and will arrive in six different color options. And yes, you can still get that ever-pressing message engraved onto it too.

Columbia announces Omni-Freeze ZERO, sports gear that cools you down the hotter

Columbia is announcing the Omni-Freeze ZERO, a range of sports gear that cools you the more you sweat. Blue rings of cooling polymer cover the garments, which swell when exposed to moisture -- letting air pass around you as if you had goosebumps.



Unlike typical compression garments, which wick the sweat away from you, this puts your natural resources to good use, so much so that the company believes it's cooler than taking your top off entirely. The futuristic gear will also turn up in a new range of footwear, but before you can get too excited, there's a catch; it isn't due to hit stores until next year, so you've still got a few months of getting sweaty.

Next Generation Cars

Roads were made to enable auto mobiles to travel quickly between distant settlements. Over the last few decades, much effort has been put in to literally, ‘getting the show off the road’ for auto mobiles. New automotive Research and Development seems to hint that the road might soon become just a point of access to another mode of transportation for your car – air, or even water!

Terrafugia’s transition
The most significant effort in the creation of a ‘Flying Car’ is by a company called ‘Terrafugia’ set up by MIT graduates in Massachusetts in 2006. But this one is a ‘Roadable Aircraft’ called ‘Transition’.

There are no bolts and nothing to put together or dismantle but you’d need to be a driver as well as a pilot to be able to use one of these. Terrafugia hopes to launch its first commercial model in 2011 and has already received 70 orders as of September 2009. This one will be a two-seater, which can travel 725 km at a speed of about 115 km/hr in air.


Moller International’s Skycar
Paul Moller’s invention is the ‘Skycar’ – a personal Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) 4-seat aircraft which, uses four pairs of Wankel Rotary engines, and, it is claimed, can hover 15 feet above the ground. It has four ducted fans with covered propellers to increase safety.

This ‘flying car’ has been several decades in the making and Moller has had to postpone projections of its launch more than twice. The present craft under production is the M400 which is planned in single as well as 6-seat versions.


Parajet Skycar

The Parajet Skycar actually flew and drove its way from London to Timbuktu in January 2009 without a hitch and has been declared the world’s first legal flying car. It has a top speed of 180 kmph and a maximum range of 400 kilometres. The car is basically constructed from a dune buggy combined with a paramotor (one of those paragliding contraptions which have a set of motorized propellers at the pilot’s back) for greater thrust and propulsion and a parafoil (the flat sail of a paraglider) to increase the lift.



Labiche’s FSC-1

Mitch Labiche’s Labiche Aerospace has designed the FSC-1 which is basically a car that can open out into an aeroplane with the push of a button, or conversely, an aeroplane that can fold up to become a car.


Aquada

Using High Speed Amphibian technology (HAS), Gibbs Technologies led by Alan Gibbs has launched the Aquada in the USA. The HAS is a technology that has been developed over a period of seven years and can now even be applied to vehicles weighing up to 10 tons. The Aquada can travel at a maximum speed of 160 kmph on land and of about 49 kmph on water.
Once it enters the water, the wheels can be retracted, like in an airplane, thus significantly reducing the drag. With the press of a button, the wheels retract the car senses it is in water, activates the jet to propel it in water and changes the headlights into marine lights. It is buoyant and cannot sink.


The Skybike

Samson Motorworks’ Skybike is a three wheeled motorcycle that can be flown or driven on the streets with equal efficiency. Led by Sam Bousfield, an inventor with several patents to his name, this Sacramento- based company hopes to launch a radio-controlled model of its attractively titled ‘Switchblade’ flying bike up for display in a few months.


Hoverpod

Entecho, an Australian company has combined a new rotor technology with unique lifting surfaces to create a flying machine that looks like a typical flying saucer. A centrifugal fan causes the air under the car to move radially from the center towards the outside, generating lift as the ‘skirt’ – the airtight flexible membrane beneath the level of the rotor – blows up, directing the flow of the air downwards.


Air Car
In an extraordinary tie-up with Luxembourg based MDI (Motor Development International), Tata Motors (India) has been working hard for the last two years, to put the finishing touches to a technology that will enable their cars to run on air.

While these cars are all set to hit the roads of France by 2011, it’s their features that make you sit up and pay attention. Compressed Air cars usually use a motor powered by compressed air – or combine them with gasoline, diesel, electric or ethanol engines – to help gain higher speeds. France’s MDI plans several such hybrids to tide over this bug.
Tata’s vehicle, called the ‘Minicat’, is purely run on an air-compression engine, is a zero-emission vehicle and might even be launched this year, as the first batch has already completed production at its Uttarakhand factory in Pantnagar. The company claims that the vehicle can reach a speed of 96 kilometres per hour and cover a range of 300 kilometres on a full tank of air.

Blackout for Vimeo, The Pirate Bay and more

The Pirate Bay and other large BitTorrent sites are now being blocked by Internet providers in India. Visitors who try to access the sites are redirected to a banner which informs them that the Department of Telecommunications ordered a blackout. Torrent sites are not the only target, as the blockade also censors the video sharing site Vimeo, one of the largest communities of indie filmmakers.





According to growing reports from India, subscribers of several large Internet service providers can no longer access The Pirate Bay, KickAssTorrents, BitSnoop and several other BitTorrent sites. In what appears to be a Government-ordered blackout, the websites in question are all being blocked at the ISP level.

Interestingly, torrent sites are not the only target. A similar block is also restricting access to the popular video sharing platform Vimeo, a site mostly used by indie filmmakers to share their work.

While there has been no official announcement, the blockade is currently affecting users of several large internet providers including Reliance Communications and Zylog Wi5.

Instead of gaining access to the sites above, subscribers are redirected to a message claiming that the site is “blocked as per instructions from Department of Telecom.




While the exact reason for the blockade is unclear, the warning banner is the same as one users got when Megaupload, RapidShare and other popular cyberlocker services were censored last year.

This blockade turned out to be an overbroad implementation of a so called “John Doe order” which prohibited Internet providers from allowing subscriber access to unauthorized copies an upcoming Bollywood movie.

Whatever the reason for the current blackout, it’s clear that the Indian entertainment industries have access to tools Hollywood can only dream of. Either directly, of with help from the Government, allegedly infringing websites can be pulled down without a trial. Just last month more than 100 music sites were censored upon request from several music labels.

For the millions of filmmakers on Vimeo this new reality will be a rude awakening, but for the folks at The Pirate Bay it is hardly a surprise.

The notorious torrent site is already blocked in numerous countries, most recently the UK. And with the current pro-blocking climate, we doubt that India will be the last country to hop on the banwagon.


$ is not a function jQuery

If you are trying to add your own jQuery code to WordPress
and seeing an error “$ is not a function” in Firebug,

If you code is looking like this:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#list").dataTable({
    "bJQueryUI": true,
    "sPaginationType": "full_numbers"
    });
});

Then you need to change all '$' sign to jQuery.
Then add line

jquery.noConflict();

before your normal code

jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#list').dataTable({
"bJQueryUI": true,

Apple, Starbucks Team Up To Give Away Free iPhone Apps

Since April 2008, Starbucks has partnered with Apple for the “Pick of the Week” program. The “Pick of the Week” program provides users with iTunes Music Store content via cards. Previously, the promotion only allowed*customers access to a free song each week, with tracks priced up to $1.29. Now, CNET reports that these cards are now also offering free downloads of paid iOS applications.



The first application made available for free is Shazam Encore, which usually sells for $5.99 in the App Store. Starbucks has not commented on whether the free applications offer will replace music tracks for good, or if both will be offered in the future. Judging by the first free app offering, it seems they’re serious about providing quality apps because Shazam Encore is a very popular music app costing $5.99.

Customers who visit Starbucks can pick up the free “Pick of the Week” cards at the register that contain codes*redeemable in the App Store towards the purchase of iOS apps.*Last year, Starbucks also did something similar by partnering with Apple and Yahoo to offer digital content to in-store customers.

Android owners, are you jealous yet? Anyways, Apple’s evil.

Is Facebook Blocking Google Plus Invite Links?

Facebook is irked about the growth of Google Plus. Google Plus now has over 25 million users, and ever since it was launched, it has had a tremendous growth. Despite that Google Plus is in field test and new registrations to the site can be done via “invite only“, and the fact being that Google had to shut down the invite system because of high demand, it somehow still managed to achieve enormous popularity.

Now that Google allows its Plus users to invite (more people) their friends to experience the new social network, its rival Facebook, seems to be overwhelmed. Of course, currently the best way to interact with friends on the Internet is via Facebook, and thus users are making use of this means by sharing Google Plus invite links on their walls. Users are not just getting themselves a Plus account, but are also attracted to the new social network and slowly migrating from Facebook.

Facebook appears to be piqued about this and is reported to be blocking Google Plus invites from the users’ Facebook news feed. This came into light when the Senior Vice President of social business, Vic Gundotra posted a video on YouTube demonstrating that Google+ invites that have been shared on Facebook did not show up in the news feed of other Facebook users.

The video was posted after which the company had gotten reports of this unusual behavior. “I wonder how widespread this problem is?” Gundotra asked.In response to Vic Gundotra’s statement, Facebook (obviously) has denied the fact that it is stopping users from sharing the Google Plus invite URL. Facebook noted that they have a display-filtering technology that help prevent spam and thus could exclude certain links from re-appearing on a user’s news feed if it had previously been posted several times.

“Newsfeed is an automated system that is designed to deliver the most relevant content to you and your friends. The technology evaluates hundreds of factors, including your relationship to the poster, the type of content, the click-through rate (where appropriate), and people hiding similar posts from their feed.

In real time, it decides what to display to you and what to filter for both Top News and Most Recent. It also includes systems that attempt to identify and block spam. Links have a history of the most abuse and are given the most scrutiny. As a result of all of these factors, a given link may be shown or filtered to people differently at different times.”

Facebook, are you sure that you truly “attempt” to “identify” and “block” spam messages? Well, there are several scams that are out there on Facebook, and practically a new one is born every day. As a matter of fact, scams that were reported months back are still spreading on Facebook.

Nevertheless, after watching the video, I tried the same by sharing a Google Plus invite on Facebook and simultaneously checking with another account if it had updated or not? The results? Well, it successfully posted the invite link in the news feed of the other account.



Now the question is whether Google tried to drive attention towards its social network by creating this gimmick or did Facebook really block the invite link? Vic Gundotra, edited his original post and added – “they appear to have stopped on Friday”
