TubeMogul Pitches Brand Safety With PageSafe, A Tool To See Where Ads Really Appear

tubemogul logoMedia agencies want to ensure that their ads are only seen in the best light...

NIST researchers store two images in a cloud of gas, open new possibilities for quantum memory

Image

Physicists have already been able to store a single image in a cloud of rubidium gas, but researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Maryland have now made a new breakthrough that could open up some new possibilities for quantum memory. As Technology Review's Physics arXiv blog reports, they've managed to store two sequential images in the cloud (not to be confused with "the cloud") and retrieve (or view) them at different times with about 90 percent accuracy -- something that could technically be called a movie. That was done using much the same technique that allows a single image to be stored in the gas, although storing multiple images apparently has the side effect of causing them to be retrieved in the reverse order of how they went in. As TR notes, however, even with that quirk, this new method could give rubidium gas a leg up over something like holographic storage, which has only been able to store and retrieve multiple images at the same time.

NDS' Surfaces turns your wall into a TV, or a TV into a wall... one of those two

Image

Remember the wall that was also a television in Total Recall? That's the inspiration behind Surfaces -- a concept device produced by British cable mavens NDS. Abandoning the idea of a single screen, the company mounted six displays into a wall that offers up TV and internet content when on, and blends into your wallpaper when off. The setup will even control your room's lighting for those particularly emotive X Factor performances and you control the whole thing with your iPad (while tweeting, bitchily about the show). However, before you storm the company's Staines headquarters looking to buy one, there are a few obstacles you should know about. Firstly, this amazing setup cost over $30,000 and secondly, it only really works if you've got plenty of content filmed in 4K -- but don't worry, Peter Jackson's working on it.

Reagan Gomez: Embracing Life, Love and Motherhood | Rolling Out ...

1:52 PM EDT 5/9/2012 by DeWayne Rogers

Words, Interview and Images by
DeWayne Rogers
Reagan Gomez is hot ? but that?s because her schedule has her working at a breakneck pace as she lends her talents to projects such as ?The Cleveland Show? on Fox, or the tragically slept-on romantic comedy, Dysfunctional Friends. Hollywood has noticed the work that she?s putting in, so now the phone is ringing off the hook. Like we said, she?s hot right now.

Reagan Gomez is also hot, because ? well, she?s just flat out hot. But every pubescent teen knew that way back in 1995 when she first appeared on the scene as Zaria in the popular Robert Townsend sitcom ?The Parent ?Hood.?

But she?s a long way from Zaria, as evidenced by the ring on her finger, and the two beautiful kids in tow. Yes, she?s all grown up, and the beautiful woman who appeared on the set for our exclusive shoot was still ?hot? in so many ways, ranging from her kindness to her countenance.
Here?s what rolling out learned when we sat down with the talented star for a special Mother?s Day interview about how marriage and motherhood have affected her ?hotness.?

What have you been up to?

I have been staying busy. I?m a mom now. I have a 4-year-old daughter and my son is going to be 1 in a couple weeks. So I?ve been busy just being a wife and a mom. I also voice one of the characters on the ?Cleveland Show,? which is a spin-off of ?Family Guy.? The show comes on every Sunday on Fox, and I voice Roberta. I also have a film out right now in select cities, called Dysfunctional Friends. It?s with myself, Stacey Dash, Wesley Jonathan, Jason Weaver, Meagan Good, Vanessa Simmons and a bunch of other people. I also just did a David E. Talbert play called What Goes Around, Comes Around with myself, Jonathan Wesley and Tony Rock. I also did a film with Eva Marcille, called If You Really Love .

Wow. You have a lot going on. How do you balance all of that with marriage and motherhood?

It?s hard trying to balance everything and my family, because my family is my first priority. So you never really see me out a lot at clubs and that kind of stuff, because I?m at home with my children.
I have no idea how I balance it. I just kind of do it every day and I hope I?m doing it right. I have to leave from here and pick up my daughter from school and figure out what I?m going to make for dinner. Although, I think since the hair and makeup [are] done, I think me and hubby might have a date night and the kids might have to figure out dinner with their Nana.
But back to what you were asking, I don?t know how you balance it ? you just have to do it and I have a very supportive husband. He?s in the business also, so I have a lot of help and his family ? especially his mother ? is a godsend. She lives like 10 minutes from us, so if I do have something last minute, she takes her?grandbabies?and I don?t have to worry about them. Actually, the last job I did in January, I had to go to Atlanta and I wanted to take my son with me and she took off and came with me to Atlanta, so I have a very supportive family.

You?ve been a very active participant in social media. Give your thoughts on social media?s place in your life.

Let me just say, I?m addicted to Twitter. A lot of people say that when they first get on, but I?ve been on there for three years and my phone is still right here. I keep it under my pillow when I sleep, as soon as I wake up I have to look and see what?s going on. I didn?t know I was going to like Twitter so much, because I don?t have a Facebook or Flickr [and] all that kind of stuff. Even with Myspace back in the day, I wasn?t really on it like that. ? I like talking about politics and Obama and what?s going on now and what the Republicans are trying to do now, and even ? the Trayvon Martin case. All that stuff is so interesting and I think social media has been a really an important part of getting all these important issues out to the people. ? Twitter has also been great for getting in contact with people and letting people know where you?ve been, because so many people are like ?what happened to Zaria, where has she been?? It?s a great voice for me to be like ?I?m still here. I?m a mom and I?m still working.? It?s been really great.

Since you?ve clearly mastered the art of success, what are some tips that you can share with others?

I think [there are] three things you need to be successful. You need to be persistent, you need to be confident and you need God in your life. There are a bunch of other things you could have also, but I think those three things are really key. You?re going to have a million people telling you no. ? If you keep knocking on that door and knocking on that door and banging on that door, sooner or later you?re going to get through. You have to develop tough skin, not just for Hollywood, but just life in general. It?s not easy and if it was easy, everybody would be successful. You have to know who you are ? and even when those people are telling you, you can?t, you suck, you?re not good at this, there are people better than you ? you have to be the one in your mind telling you they don?t know what the hell they are talking about. So you just have to keep at it, and keep God first and keep God in your life.

Let?s talk about the future. What are your thoughts on what the future holds.
I?m excited about the future. I?ve been writing and producing like I said. Two years ago I wrote and produced a short film called This Time, I starred in it as well. I wrote and produced a Web series that we shot a couple weeks ago called ?Almost Home.? The next chapter of my life is writing and directing ? that?s definitely what I want to do. I?m in my thirties, so that?s definitely the plan for my thirties, and just working with other women of color in the industry. I?m really excited about that. It?s something I wish I [had done] more of in my twenties. My mom is a published author, so I have it in me. I?ve been writing for a long time. I would write scripts here and there in my twenties and give it to my representation at the time and they would say, ?oh it?s cute.? But they didn?t really take me seriously, [and] I didn?t really pursue it or force it on them. It?s definitely what I want to do, so I?m doing that now and I?m really excited about the future.

And to the people who continue to support you, what would you say?

Thank you guys so much for the love and support over the years. Some of you have been riding with me since you?ve been a teenager or younger, and I really appreciate that love and support. I?m so thankful to still be in this business after all of these years, and I hope to still be in this business for years and years to come. So keep a look out for me as I still have a lot more to do.

Lastly, let?s talk about your morning inspiration. What do you when you wake up in the morning to get you focused before you start your day?

To be honest with you, I don?t even have time to take that minute. Those few minutes I just get up, check Twitter, and then I get my kids. Sometimes I don?t even have time to get up, because somebody?s hitting me on the head with the pillow talking about they want cereal. You just have to take it day-by-day. Even in those times, it?s such a blessing because I have two beautiful healthy children and an amazing husband. I love my life ? I love my house ? I?m in a very good space in my life right now, so every day that I wake up, it?s such a blessing for me.

More than one way to explode a star

New observations confirm two leading theories of type 1a supernova production

Web edition : Tuesday, May 8th, 2012

There are two ways to light a cosmic candle. One technique calls for two white dwarf stars; another positions a white dwarf near a larger stellar companion. Both combinations produce type 1a supernovas (pictured here), massive stellar explosions that act as ?standard candles? for gauging astronomical distances. Type 1a supernovas are triggered when white dwarfs gain weight, igniting a runaway thermonuclear reaction that destroys the dwarf, producing a fireball of predictable brightness. For a long time, astronomers disagreed over what sorts of ingredients were needed to make the white dwarf go boom. ?Now, an international team of astronomers studying 23 recent type 1a fireballs reports that there are two recipes: the same ones astronomers have been arguing over for years. In both, the doomed dwarf leeches material from a companion ? from either a second dwarf, producing a supernova with no surrounding gas, or from a larger star, generating a more powerful explosion and a gas cloud, the team reports in an upcoming issue of the Astrophysical Journal. In January, another team published evidence that a white dwarf?white dwarf merger produced a type 1a supernova. Understanding precisely how these type 1a explosions are generated will help refine cosmic distance measurements, helpful information for gauging the accelerating expansion of the universe.

Gogo grabs 1MHz spectrum from JetBlue subsidiary LiveTV, beefs up in-flight bandwidth

Gogo grabs 1MHz spectrum from JetBlue subsidiary LiveTV, beefs up its in-flight bandwidthIn-flight internet provider Gogo's been increasing its domestic presence of late, so it makes sense for the company to snag some additional spectrum as well. Its new wireless license is for a chunk of 1 MHz spectrum that Gogo got from Live TV, the subsidiary of JetBlue that handles all of that airline's in-air entertainment and communications services. Gogo's new spectrum will augment its existing Air-to-Ground network here in the US -- pending FCC approval, of course -- and provide road (sky?) warriors with a bit more bandwidth once above 10,000 feet.
