On the latter, it’s more about answering questions like “is this app educational?” or “is this appropriate for a young child?,” for example. In AppCertain’s review of an application, it looks both at objective facts about how the app functions (e.g., does it acces the camera or GPS? does it upload your iPhone contacts to its servers?), as well as subjective information. “The initial idea was how can we bring that technology to mobile devices?,” he says, “because that’s where we see a lot of opportunity in the future.” Whitman’s background is in computer security, and he previously worked at CMU’s CyLab with technology that runs a binary analysis on software programs in order to determine what that program – like Firefox or Word – does. And in AppCertain’s case, it’s about knowing what the apps on a particular device can actually do. ![]() In TestFlight’s case, that’s providing a platform for accessing and installing apps which have not made their way into the public App Store yet. Apple put this functionality in place so enterprise customers could better manage the mobile apps and devices on their network, but as TestFlight shows, the feature allows for other types of activities as well. ![]() He adds that iOS is the more difficult platform to build on, so if they can be successful here, it will be no problem to port it to Android later on.ĪppCertain works a bit like TestFlight, the beta application testing service, in that it also takes advantage of iOS’s ability to load “security certificates” onto the device. ![]() “The reason we started with parental help is there’s a big need for it, but also it gives us an opportunity to focus on one platform, to really understand what the applications are doing on there,” says Whitman. Parents tell themselves they’ll keep track by taking the device from time to time and looking through all the apps, but often, that doesn’t end up happening because people are just too busy. It’s also things like violence and gore, language, drugs and alcohol references, adult themes, whether or not the app allows kids and adults to communicate with each other, whether apps are accessing data or services on the phone that go beyond what they need to function, whether apps allow for private communication which parents don’t know about, and much more.Įxplains AppCertain CEO Spencer Whitman, parents – even tech-savvy parents in some cases – have a hard time keeping up with all the new applications their kids are downloading, installing and using. It’s a “net nanny” for the mobile age, where it’s no longer just about kids coming across inappropriate content on the web – it’s about protecting children from the inappropriate content found in apps, too.Īlthough former Apple CEO Steve Jobs took a hard stance on keeping the company’s devices kid-friendly ( he famously once said that Apple had “a moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone,” for example), the rise of social networking applications – like, most recently, Twitter’s Vine app – has made keeping that promise much more difficult.Īnd it’s not just pornography that parents are worried about. AppCertain is the first studio company that Birchmere has publicly announced, partner Sean Ammirati tells us.īased in Pittsburgh, and staffed by a number of Carnegie Mellon University alumni, AppCertain aims to help busy parents keep track of the activities associated with the applications their children are using. The project is being incubated out of Birchmere Labs, the seed and studio fund within early stage VC firm Birchmere Ventures, which now both invests in startups directly and incubates select companies in a similar fashion to the betaworks model. Designed for parents whose children use an iOS device like the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, this new app-monitoring service sends out email alerts informing parents of the apps their kids have just installed, what those apps do, and whether or not they’re appropriate for children. It’s rare to come across a service that’s directly tackling a problem affecting a large number of people out in the real world, but AppCertain is doing just that.

Over time, forward head posture can be corrected through four lifestyle changes: 1. Long-term side effects of “nerd neck” include: Numbness and tingling of the arms and hands.Other short-term side effects of forward head posture include: Your changed center of balance also makes you more susceptible to falls and the ensuing injuries. Think you suffer from “tension headaches?” The culprit may actually be your “nerd neck” posture. These effects culminate in “tension neck syndrome,” which causes pain often indistinguishable from a tension headache. The rounding of the shoulders also places an extra burden on the lower back, increasing the risk of herniated discs. The muscles, joints, and nerves in the neck and back fall under undue pressure, resulting in upper back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pain. This kind of imbalance leads to all sorts of unpleasant neural, musculoskeletal, and cardiovascular side effects. “Nerd neck” results in tight upper back muscles and weak front-of-neck muscles.

Where women kind of congregated toward the sideline role. Why do you think that is? I just think it’s one of those things where, for so long, and not through anyone’s fault, it was normalized. We see a fair number of female reporters on the sidelines, but so few in the broadcast booth. They’ve all been really kind and gracious about doing that. I only knew three of the guys so when the season got shut down, I was like, “Crap! How do I play catch up and learn about the team when the whole team has just been sent home?” So we launched a digital show for Orioles Instagram called “The Grind” where I would sit down and just have coffee virtually with a player once a week. It must’ve been hard to get to know the players in the midst of a pandemic. They made everything that I never even thought possible happen. So when the Orioles came to me and said we want you to do both, I was like this is it. And everybody said you have to choose at some point. ![]() In my years in this industry, people have asked, “Do you like play-by-play or do you like sidelines?” Well, I don’t really prefer one of them-they’re so different, I like them both. And you have a very unique role with the team. Īfter working in the minors for many years, you got called up to the “bigs” with the Orioles. ![]() I’m never going to pretend I have the athlete mind to say, “Oh yeah, he should’ve broken left instead of right.” That’s getting out of what I know and that’s when people see through that-when you start making up stuff. Any color analysis that I do is more of a human background to kind of flesh out the athlete as a whole versus breaking down why they did a certain play. For lack of a better word, you be a yes man until you get to that point. So when it came to the fact that someone said, “Hey, we’re going to put you in the booth,” it was a little nerve wracking-I was like, “What am I going to bring to the table?” But I still trusted it. And my college advisor said, “Hey, we want to put you in broadcasting.” And I said, “Okay.” And then they said, “Hey, we want you to do a sideline series.” And I said, “Okay.” I trusted the other people around me who had more experience than me every time they wanted me to go in a different direction. So how did you get into sports broadcasting? I started out as a print journalist. Bottom line is, I can’t go out and field ground balls. I always tell the, when they walk out in the hallway of the hotel and see me working at 2, 3 o clock in the morning because I couldn’t get wi-fi in my own room and they just say, “I don’t know how you do it.” And I say “I can do the long hours. But it’s just funny when I look back at it now, I think that’s the reason why I went in the direction of pivoting toward the human interest side of the sport rather than trying to be the person who gets hyper analytical and breaks down the mechanics. Everybody always thinks, oh you played soft ball. But contact, hand-eye coordination-heavy sports, no. Then I did dance and cheerleading and stuff like that. I had one not great year of running track and field back in high school. We always joke, I did not inherit the athletic gene in the family. But you just organically came to love it. Most women who are really into sports either played sports or have a whole lot of brothers. And once we started going to baseball games, for whatever reason, my brain just latched onto that 10 times harder and I wanted to know every little detail about the sports. I never realized until I got older and would watch the way other kids were at sporting events and they would want to get souvenirs or cotton candy and my sister and I were the ones that were plugged into our seats, asking our parents about things that were going on, being in awe of our dad’s. So that’s what we did for fun-me, my mom, dad, and sister were just always at different events. We lived in the heart of SEC Country when it came to football. Living in Atlanta, there was just so much going on, especially given that it was the mid ’90s so we had the Olympics and the Braves were on a streak. How did you get into sports? I grew up around sports. We chatted with Newman over Zoom, where she discussed her unprecedented new role, muting haters on Twitter, and how the human side of sports is her jam. It’s hard to believe, but Melanie Newman, 29, is the first female broadcaster to do play-by-play for the Baltimore Orioles in the team’s history-and only the fourth female in the broadcast booth in all of Major League Baseball. 11/11/2023 0 Comments Mugen fighters guild orochi shingo![]() 100 Shiki: Oniyaki can be canceled with another one during Custom Combo.

11/11/2023 0 Comments Pic of dodo bird![]() In 1842, Danish zoologist Johannes Theodor Reinhardt proposed that dodos were ground pigeons, based on studies of a dodo skull he had discovered in the collection of the Natural History Museum of Denmark. The dodo was variously declared a small ostrich, a rail, an albatross, or a vulture, by early scientists. Skull in the Zoological Museum of Copenhagen, examination of which led to the dodo being classified as a pigeon in 1842 The dodo achieved widespread recognition from its role in the story of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and it has since become a fixture in popular culture, often as a symbol of extinction and obsolescence. The extinction of the dodo within less than a century of its discovery called attention to the previously unrecognised problem of human involvement in the disappearance of entire species. Since then, a large amount of subfossil material has been collected on Mauritius, mostly from the Mare aux Songes swamp. Among these is a dried head, the only soft tissue of the dodo that remains today. ![]() In the 19th century, research was conducted on a small quantity of remains of four specimens that had been brought to Europe in the early 17th century. Its extinction was not immediately noticed, and some considered the bird to be a myth. The last widely accepted sighting of a dodo was in 1662. In the following years, the bird was hunted by sailors and invasive species, while its habitat was being destroyed. The first recorded mention of the dodo was by Dutch sailors in 1598. Though the dodo has historically been portrayed as being fat and clumsy, it is now thought to have been well-adapted for its ecosystem. ![]() It is presumed that the dodo became flightless because of the ready availability of abundant food sources and a relative absence of predators on Mauritius. One account states its clutch consisted of a single egg. It used gizzard stones to help digest its food, which is thought to have included fruits, and its main habitat is believed to have been the woods in the drier coastal areas of Mauritius. It has been depicted with brownish-grey plumage, yellow feet, a tuft of tail feathers, a grey, naked head, and a black, yellow, and green beak. Since these portraits vary considerably, and since only some of the illustrations are known to have been drawn from live specimens, the dodos' exact appearance in life remains unresolved, and little is known about its behaviour. The dodo's appearance in life is evidenced only by drawings, paintings, and written accounts from the 17th century. Subfossil remains show the dodo was about 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) tall and may have weighed 10.6–17.5 kg (23–39 lb) in the wild. A white dodo was once thought to have existed on the nearby island of Réunion, but it is now believed that this assumption was merely confusion based on the also-extinct Réunion ibis and paintings of white dodos. The closest living relative of the dodo is the Nicobar pigeon. The two formed the subfamily Raphinae, a clade of extinct flightless birds that were a part of the family which includes pigeons and doves. The dodo's closest genetic relative was the also-extinct Rodrigues solitaire. The dodo ( Raphus cucullatus) is an extinct flightless bird that was endemic to the island of Mauritius, which is east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. 11/11/2023 0 Comments Opus one tasting![]() ![]() ![]() Opus One is known for producing some of the finest wines in the world, and its wines have received numerous accolades and awards.
