Yahoo going to make 'Digital Newsstand'

Yahoo has announced a "digital newsstand" called coach handbags wholesale outlet Livestand for tablet devices and cell phones that has been designed to deliver content from the company's various sites and online publications.

Livestand has been designed for portable devices, so that articles, photos, videos, graphics and ads are optimized for the screens and interfaces of mobile phones and tablet PCs, the company said Thursday.

Livestand will tailor content delivered to users based on a variety of factors, including their interests, their location and the time of day, and will draw from Yahoo properties like Sports, News, Finance, OMG and Flickr.

The platform will have embedded social media capabilities that publishers can take advantage of to engage readers and foster interaction among them, Yahoo said.

Livestand will be initially available as an coach mia hotsale application for Apple's iPad and Android tablet devices in the first half of this year. Versions for mobile phones and for browsers will be delivered later.

"Livestand brings the best of magazines and the best of the Web," said Irv Henderson, vice president of product management for Yahoo Mobile and Connected Devices, during a press conference.

Although Yahoo officials only showed Livestand featuring content from Yahoo properties during the press conference, they said the company is already working with an initial set of external publishers, whom they declined to name.

"It's a digital platform and we're its first customers," Henderson said.

Livestand will let publishers generate revenue both from advertising and from subscriptions.

The current user experience for publications on tablet devices leaves a lot to be desired for readers and advertisers, said Blake Irving, executive vice president and chief product officer for Yahoo.

Tablet versions of digital magazines and newspapers are "mostly PDFs" that aren't as engaging and interactive as they should be, Irving said.

Livestand has been designed to make content truly personalized and interactive, and advertising to combine the impact of television and the precision and richness of digital, he said.

Gayus Tambunan, Corrupt tax official seven years in jail

An Indonesian tax official has been convicted in New coach outlet a multi-million-dollar graft case which exposed a web of corruption in the country's justice system.

Public interest in the case of Gayus Tambunan was so intense that he was unable to move from the holding cell into the courtroom until a phalanx of police pushed through the crowd of journalists and onlookers.

Gayus was a tax assessor caught taking bribes to understate the income of well-connected taxpayers.

But he was only a minor player and the couch handbags media wanted to know the identities of the big players.

Indonesian president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has staked his reputation on getting to the bottom of it all, but those high stakes are matched by the depth of corruption in Indonesia.

After it was revealed that Gayus had bribed his way out of an earlier trial, he was persuaded to cooperate with a team of investigators appointed by the president.

Police, prosecutors and the judiciary have all been implicated, and along the way Gayus testified that scores of companies had paid him to reduce their tax bills.

Instead Gayus was brought to trial for taking bribes from a small food manufacturer.

The Panel set out to Govern Financial System

The new regulatory board Discount coach outlet online charged with overseeing the stability of the financial system took its first big steps on Tuesday to set out tentative guidelines to limit trading by banks for their own accounts and to restrict the growth of the biggest financial companies.

The Financial Stability Oversight Council, the grand council of financial regulators created by the Dodd-Frank Act, also proposed rules as to which large financial companies that were not banks would be regulated by the Federal Reserve because they constituted a potential threat to the nation’s financial system’s stability based on their size.

It is likely to take several days for Cheap coach purses outlet Wall Street to wade through and decipher many of the implications of the recommendations, which were embedded in reams of studies, reports and regulatory filings released simultaneously Tuesday afternoon. Among the four documents was a 79-page report on the Volcker rule, the ban on trading by banks for their own accounts that is named for Paul A. Volcker, the former Fed chairman who championed the idea, and 46 pages of proposed rules on regulating nonbank financial companies.

The recommendations made public on Tuesday are subject to revision based on public comments and the recommendations of various other state and federal regulatory agencies. But the proposals are among the most concrete steps yet aimed at preventing financial institutions from becoming “too big to fail” and at keeping tabs on insurance companies and other companies whose activities could endanger the American economy.

Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner, who serves as chairman of the oversight council, said the proposed rules and policy recommendations were necessary “so that consumers and investors can have more confidence that they won’t be taken advantage of and so that businesses and working families will not be vulnerable again to the type of crisis we’re just coming out of.”

Among its actions, the council laid out a set of 10 steps to adopt the Volcker rule.

Jaret Seiberg, a research analyst at MF movado watch Global’s Washington Research Group, said in a report that some of the council’s Volcker rule recommendations were “even more positive than the industry was expecting,” including provisions that would allow banks to hedge trading positions used in market-making activities that serve clients.

An amphibious vehicle sinks off Calif, When The Marine died

“Germany is an important anchor for Europe, not only on coach outlet online account of its economic size, but also and above all owing to its own creditworthiness, its sound fiscal policy and its competitiveness,” the newspaper quoted Trichet as saying.

CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. -- A Marine died after going down with an amphibious assault vehicle that sank Friday during a training exercise in a harbor in Southern California, authorities said.

The man was pulled from the coach purses outlet vehicle at about 2:15 p.m. and flown to Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, where he was pronounced dead, the Marine Corps at Camp Pendleton said.

Five other Marines escaped without injury from the training vehicle as it became submerged shortly before noon in the Del Mar boat basin in San Diego County's Oceanside Harbor, the Corps said.

The tank-like vehicle moves Marines between ships and shore. It was part of the Amphibious Assault Vehicle Schools Battalion.

The name of the Marine who was killed was being withheld until relatives were notified.

The Marine Corps said the incident was under movado watch investigation. It gave no details on what may have caused the vehicle to sink.

China Inflation helpful to the Hu-Obama Summit

Rising inflation in China that is causing headaches for coach outlet online President Hu Jintao at home may help relieve tensions with the U.S. over the yuan as he prepares to meet President Barack Obama in Washington next week.

Prices are climbing faster in China than in the U.S., making Chinese goods less competitive, Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner said this week. Chinese officials may also seek to speed up gains in the currency, also known as the renminbi, to fight inflation, lowering the cost of imported U.S. goods such as Boeing Co. aircraft and Microsoft Corp. software.

Hu may seek the easing of a U.S. coach purses outlet ban on technology exports, while Obama is likely to focus on access to Chinese markets, lower subsidies for companies and cooperation on North Korea. Meantime, the U.S. economic recovery and new Republican leaders in Congress who don’t see the yuan as a priority may coach outlet online also help make the issue less contentious, said Michael Paulus, who heads the Asia Public Sector Group at Citigroup Inc. in Hong Kong.

“That the renminbi is starting to get on a track that people feel somewhat comfortable with takes it off the front burner,” former Treasury official Paulus said in an interview. “The people at the White House and the Treasury and elsewhere will not try to downplay it, but not play it up either.”

Geithner, speaking in Washington coach outlet online on Jan. 12, said that while the yuan was still “substantially undervalued” the “fundamental forces that are pushing Chinese productivity growth and are pushing inflation higher will bring about the necessary adjustment in exchange rates.”

Factoring in rising prices, the erosion of Chinese companies’ advantage over U.S. rivals was equivalent to the yuan strengthening at an annual rate of about 10 percent, he said.

Trading Range

The yuan’s trading range, set each morning by the People’s Bank of China, is increasingly linked to political events between China and coach outlet online the U.S. Shares in the exchange-traded, New York-based WisdomTree Dreyfus China Yuan Fund gained 3.1 percent in the month leading up to a scheduled Oct. 15 release of a Treasury report on whether China manipulates its currency, which was delayed. Shares fell 1 percent over the next two weeks. In the first three days of this week the fund gained 0.51 percent.

Last year Obama and Congress pushed China repeatedly to speed up yuan gains amid historically high unemployment. The jobless rate reached a 26-year peak of 10.1 percent in October 2009, and is now at 9.4 percent.

Obama said after meeting Hu in November that China is spending “enormous amounts of money” to keep the yuan undervalued. Democrats in the House pushed through a measure, which never saw a vote in the full Senate, making it easier for U.S. companies to seek movado watch penalties against Chinese imports because of an undervalued currency.

Tax proposal come along hard way

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — A drive to raise Illinois taxes Movado Bold dramatically seemed to be stuck in "park" Sunday as Democratic leaders came and went without comment and legislators waited for hours.

Gov. Pat Quinn met Sunday afternoon with the Illinois Senate president and House speaker to strategize on their efforts to raise income taxes and sales taxes. All three left through back exits after the meeting rather than answer questions.

Quinn, cornered by reporters as he tried to leave the Coach Scarf  Capitol through a basement exit, would say only that he's "working hard" to pass a plan that will rescue state government from its paralyzing financial crisis.

A House session scheduled for mid-afternoon was delayed for hours.

"Are the political will and votes there to do it or not? At this stage, I don't know the answer," said Rep. Joseph Lyons, a Chicago Democrat and a member of House Speaker Michael Madigan's leadership team.

Lyons called the tax issue a "potential career-ending vote" for House members.

Democrats are considering a power balance plan to boost the 3 percent income tax rate to 5.25 percent for four years, a 75 percent increase. They're also looking at a dollar-a-pack increase in cigarette taxes, more than double the current rate.

Together, the increases would produce about $7.5 billion a year, backers say. The money would be used in several ways: to close the gap between annual government costs and revenues, to provide money for education and property tax relief, and to finance borrowing about $8 billion to pay off the state's backlog of overdue bills.

After four years, the income tax rate would drop, although not all the way back to current levels. With officials still negotiating, it was unclear how much the rate would drop.

Supporters of the tax increase argue it must be Coach Outlet part of the solution to a budget deficit that could hit $15 billion this year. The deficit is so large that the government is borrowing money to make its annual contribution to retirement systems and is months behind in paying bills.

Democratic leaders want to pass something before the current General Assembly formally ends Wednesday at noon. After that, they lose some of their Democratic majority as well as "lame duck" legislators who might be persuaded to support a tax increase as they leave office.

"Time is running short," said Rep. Lou Lang of Skokie, another member of House leadership.

Lang said a vote on this tax plan would be the second-most important vote of his career, behind only the vote to impeach Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Lang said he wants a tax increase that would hurt taxpayers and businesses as little as possible while still putting the state back on sound financial footing.

"If we're going to do this, we ought to do it right," Lang said.

Large as Tablets IPad, Looms Hit the Market

Apple Inc. wasn't at the Consumer Electronics Show, but the Movado Bold company's influence was felt as mobile phone and computer makers showed off dozens of tablet computers.

Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc., Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., Dell Inc. and others touted new tablet computers at the event this week.

When the iPad debuted Coach Outlet, "every major device maker had to rethink what they were doing," said Mary Lou Jepsen, chief executive of Pixel Qi Corp., which makes low-power computer displays for laptops and tablet makers such as Toshiba Corp. and Notion Ink Design Labs Pvt. Ltd.

At CES, Motorola unveiled a Xoom tablet using Google Inc.'s Android 3.0 software that will debut later this quarter; Google said the software was built specifically for tablets. Similarly to the iPad, it uses larger screen sizes relative to smartphones to display additional information, such as an email inbox while reading a message, a larger home-screen layout and richer animations.

Samsung is releasing a WiFi-only version of Coach purses its popular seven-inch "Galaxy Tab," rivalling the base-line iPad, and a smartphone-sized Android-based media player, competing against the iPod Touch.

The unveilings come as Apple has seen tremendous success with the iPad, which starts at $499, launched last April. Wall Street analysts estimate Apple sold 13.5 million of the devices last year. They say a new updated model that will likely launch in coming months will help Apple sell as many as 30 million units this year.

While Apple dominates the market share for tablet computers, the overall tablet market is growing fast. According to research firm iSuppli, the tablet market will more than triple to 61 million units this year from last year.

Some analysts are skeptical about the flood of new tablets. In a report Friday, Kaufman Bros. analyst Shaw Wu said he was concerned tablet expectations may prove too high.

Tech companies are also paying attention to the availability of applications and content as well as how they work with other devices and services. Vizio Inc. said it focused on making sure that the look and feel of the interface of its new tablet was the same as on its televisions and Blu-ray players. It singled out features like the vast selection of applications and a feature that lets users begin watching a movie on one device and finish on another.

Tablet makers face the challenge of how to differentiate themselves from the iPad.

One way has been to come up with a different sized tablet. When Samsung first debuted its seven-inch Galaxy Tab, it emphasized how it was small enough to fit into a coat pocket.

Omar Khan, chief strategy officer for Samsung Telecommunications America LLC, said the Galaxy Tab's development was influenced by consumer surveys rather than the iPad, but acknowledged comparisons are inevitable.

Meanwhile, Dell is trying to differentiate its tablet from others using Android by rolling out new home-screen software that can access music, movies and photos without opening separate applications, and acts very similarly whether run on a desktop computer or a tablet.

Dell acknowledges Apple established the tablet market, but is striking its own direction. "We're spending less and less time thinking about what's going on power balance in Cupertino," said Ed Boyd, who heads Dell's design efforts.

Motorola said it didn't take design cues from the iPad.

This guy won Mega Millions by lottary

Jim McCullar kissed his wife, Carolyn, as he claimed his $190 million Coach shoes outlet share of the Mega Millions lottery, part of the second-largest jackpot in the history of the U.S. lottery.

This time around, Jim McCullar discovered the couple had won hundreds of millions of dollars while watching the winning numbers be announced on television. "I thought, 'Oh my good Lord in heaven,'" he said.

Pale and shaking, he ran to his wife who was lying in bed with their three dogs. Carolyn McCullar thought her husband, who has 12 stents in his heart, was having a heart attack.

"She said, 'Are you ok?'" Jim McCullar said. "I said, 'Yeah, I'm perfect. ... Where are the lottery tickets?'" Carolyn McCullar grabbed the tickets while her husband pulled up the winning numbers on the computer.

"She looked and she studied, she looked and she studied, and she looked at me and screamed," Jim McCullar said. "Tears started flowing. All she could say, 'Is this real?' I said, 'I pinched myself and I'm awake and this is real.'"

He immediately signed his winning tickets and put them in his wallet. They told their children, close friends and co-workers. The couple said that they have no plans to "blow" the money.

"What this means to me is not a jet and traveling all over the world," Jim McCullar said. "What this means to me is that the legacy is going to go generation after generation after generation. My kids, my grandkids, my great grandkids and their kids will never have to worry."

The couple has four kids together. Jim McCullar has two more kids from a previous marriage. The two, who love to golf, moved to Washington state in 2003. Jim McCullar previously worked for Boeing for 20 years as a maintenance instructor.

Washington Lottery communications director Scott Kinney said that the McCullars hand-picked the magic numbers at 3:30 p.m. Sunday. The Safeway store that sold the winning ticket will receive $50,000.

Washington state will use the money it makes Movado Bold from the lottery towards higher education, Kinney said.
