Airline To Fly Woman to Taiwan to Fetch Her Lost Camera !!!!!
China Airlines says it will pay for a Georgia woman to fly to Taiwan to be reunited with a photo-laden camera she lost on a 2007 vacation.
The camera belongs to Lindsay Scallan, who says she lost the waterproof digital camera during a nighttime scuba-diving trip in 2007.
“It was my first time in Hawaii ever, so I was pretty upset I had lost all my memories,” she tells Atlanta’sWSB-TV.
VIDEO: Camera found in Taiwan belongs to Georgia woman
But Scallan’s camera finally washed ashore this month, nearly six years after she lost it. And in Taiwan, about 6,000 miles from Hawaii.
It was on a Taiwan beach where a manager of Taiwan-based China Airlines found it while vacationing with his family.
The camera was covered in seaweed and barnacles, but its waterproof casing was still intact, according WSB.
“An employee of China Airlines found my camera, found the pictures still on the memory card and got in touch with Hawaiian officials to see if they could help find who the owner was — the mystery blond woman as they called it,” Scallan says to CBS Atlanta 46.
The Taipei Times reports that Scallan’s photos included a shot of a catamaran called Teralani 3, which the China Airlines employee tracked to Maui. That’s how the employee — identified by the Times as Douglas Cheng — got the idea to get in touch with Hawaiian officials.
China Airlines created a Facebook page that showed a picture of “the mystery blond woman” along with a page title saying: “China Airlines Is Looking For You.”
The Times writes Cheng “contacted Hawaiian authorities and the tourism bureau through (the airline’s) Honolulu office … .”
Eventually, the story made it to local Hawaii TV stations, with a report aired via the local Hawaii News Now TV platform.
Hawaii News Now says “the mystery unraveled” after it aired a report on Friday that then “went viral.”
“Facebook fans shared, and shared — thousands of times. A high school friend of Lindsay Scallan’s saw our story, and pointed us to her Facebook page Sunday morning. She calls it unbelievable,” Hawaii News Now says in its report.
Next up for Scallan: An all-expensive paid vacation to Taiwan, where she will meet Cheng and be reunited with her camera.
“China Airlines has offered to pay for me to go out there and my room, board and my food and everything,” Scallan tells CBS Atlanta. “An all expenses paid trip to come out there and get my camera back and meet the guy that found it. It’s been a wild ride.”
“Everyone’s talking about it. It’s pretty neat,” she adds to Hawaii News Now.

Who, What, Why: What is ‘ungoogleable’?!!!
The word “ungoogleable” has been removed from a list of new Swedish words after a trademark spat. But it raises the question of what can and can’t be found with a search engine.
Today Google appears to be the font of all data.
The idea that something can’t be found online is strange enough to have spawned its own adjective.
The word “ungoogleable” is in the headlines after a dispute between the search engine giant and Sweden’s language watchdog.
The Language Council of Sweden wanted to include “ungoogleable” – or “ogooglebar” – in its annual list of new Swedish words. But it defined the term as something that cannot be found with any search engine.
Google wanted the Swedish translation to be changed to refer only to Google searches, and the Council opted to remove the word altogether to avoid a lengthy legal battle.
The spat raises the question of just what “ungoogleable” means. Or more specifically, are some things still impossible to find with a search engine? And if so, is it a deliberate strategy?
To be ungoogleable might be a blessing or curse !!!!

Message For The Day….A Woman Is Better Placed in Finding Release from Worldly Existence !!!

Message For The Day….Practice Right Conduct !!!
What is the most precious jewel we must acquire and why? Bhagawan lovingly and clearly explains to us today.
‘Speak the Truth and Practice Righteousness, Sathyam Vada Dharmam Chara,’ says the scriptures. They also declareSathyam Naasthi Paro Dharmaha – there is no dharma or law greater than Truth. Note that the Vedic injunction is “Dharmam Chara” – Practice Right Conduct. It is not enough if you learn about it, you must practice it, fill every moment with thoughts, words and deeds that reflect your awareness of this Dharma. Such a life is the hallmark of one who possesses true good character. And it is this character which the scriptures refer to as one’s best ornament.
Apple Imagines An iPhone That’s All Glass And All Screen, All The Way Around !!!
Apple just published a patent that imagines what an iPhone would look like if the whole phone body were a wraparound screen.
Here’s what Apple’s drawing looks like, via Patently Apple:
Patently Apple’s summary of Apple’s patent filing:
Today’s invention focuses on the flexible wraparound display that could be fashioned in aluminum, aluminum and glass or a fully transparent design. This future iPhone design won’t have any physical buttons so controlling the audio on the iPhone will simply require you to hover your hand over the side of the display to temporarily illustrate the controls. The new design could also produce 3D visuals through its unique dual display design. This is certainly one of Apple’s hottest inventions of the year.
Neat, right?
OK, but keep something in mind.
Apple files all kinds of patents for gadgets and technologies that never actually see the light of day. Apple does this to keep its options open. The rule is: think of an idea? Patent it. Before Samsung does.
So, the image above could be a preview of the iPhone 6 or iPhone 7 – or it could be a total red herring.

Perfectly Timed Self–Portraits Of a Japanese Girl Artist !!!
TAKING hanging around to a whole new level, for the last two years Tokyo-photographer Natsumi Hayashi has snapped a daily self-portrait of herself going aerial.
Armed with her tripod and Canon camera on self-timer, Hayashi ignores the confused stares of baffled onlookers to leap into the air seconds after she presses her shutter button.
The remarkable results make it appear as if she spends her days permanently floating around Tokyo, defying the laws of gravity.
“To achieve the look of levitation it’s crucial that you don’t appear to be jumping,” she says.
“That means a controlled facial expression and lack of movement. It should look like a moment frozen in time, not mid-jump.”

Steve Jobs On His First Day at Apple !!!!
Source: news.com.au
STEVE Jobs didn’t always wear his signature black skivvy. In fact, newly found photos showed he wore purple on his first day at work. Well kind of.
A former Apple employee recently discovered a set of photos of Steve Jobs taken on the first day of his return to the company.
Jobs had been fired from Apple in 1985 after allegedly organising a “Coup d’état” of the Apple board. He was invited back to the company more than a decade later in 1996.
Former Mac OS Evangelist Tim Holmes had been working late that night, and was invited by his boss to attend a “Town Hall” meeting which was usually for things like company announcements.
However, “it was clearly not a company meeting,” Holmes wrote on his Flickr account.

Holmes said he called his wife and told her to meet him there. “We had no idea what was about to happen.”
You can guess what happened next. Apple was about to introduce Jobs as the de-facto chief. (Then CEO, Gil Amelio would be ousted within a year).
The photos were taken with one of Apple’s first cameras, the Apple QuickTake. It was a camera Jobs himself would kill within the year, and probably for good reason. The colours were all wrong.
Holmes emphasized that Jobs was wearing a black jacket “in real life”, as opposed to the bright purple it appears to be in the photo.
“The colours are way off due to the poor quality of digital cameras in 1996,” Holmes explained.

Message For The Day…Bhakthi or Devotion Directed Education Is Needed Now ….
|
When plans are laid by the rulers for the uplift of the people and for training the children of the land, I want that the ancient wisdom of Bharath, still preserved and practised by scholars, be consulted. That will keep the keel of the ship straight. I want that the knowledge embodied in the Upanishads should be handed down to everyone. Bhakthi or devotion-directed education must take precedence over the Bhukthi or enjoyment-directed learning that prevails today in most countries of the world. Bhakthi is the yearning which goads you onto the spiritual discipline which will endow you with the Supreme Wisdom. Have both – faith and steadiness – in this pursuit, and you will win.
