Brad Hodge to lead Australia at Hong Kong Sixes ? Cricket News Update

Cricket Australia on Wednesday named its seven-man squad for this year?s Hong Kong Sixes tournament later this month. Former top order batsman Brad Hodge will lead the side in the two-day fast-paced cricketing event.

"Hodge, one of the top batsmen in last season's inaugural KFC T20 Big Bash League, will lead a selection of explosive Australian cricketers in the two-day tournament," Cricket Australia said in a statement.

Cricket Australia?s National Talent Manager Greg Chappell picked up the squad, in consultation with the CA?s National Selection Panel.

Chappell said that they have picked up a good mix of youth and experience for the two-day tournament and hoped Hodge?s presence in the squad will help the youngsters.

"...the younger squad members will benefit from Brad Hodge's presence as captain/coach," said Chappell.

The 37-year-old Victorian batsman, who played six Tests and 25 One Day Internationals for the mighty Aussies during his three-year-long international career, spanning 2005-08, was excited at wearing Australian colours after a long time.

"I'm excited about the tournament, especially because it's been a long time since I've put on the Australian colours," said ?the right-handed top-order batsman while speaking to media reporters after being appointed as the skipper of the seven-man squad.

"I'll be taking on a bit of a mentoring role as coach and captain and I look forward to sharing my knowledge with the guys, particularly with someone like Meyrick Buchanan (19), who's still only a teenager but has been very impressive so far."

The Hong Kong Cricket Sixes is an international cricket tournament, held annually at the Kowloon Cricket Club. Initially 10 teams used to compete in the event, but since 2011 the number of teams has been increased to 12. The latest edition of the tournament will be held at the same Kowloon Cricket Club from October 27 to 28.

According to the tournament rules each team fields six players. Each game consists of five six-ball overs, and every player except wicketkeeper bowls an over, hence the format suits all-rounders. The number of balls in each over is increased to eight balls in the finals.

Pakistan are the defending champions. Mighty Aussies had won the trophy in 2010 when Ryan Carters and David Warner smashed 48 runs from the final over of the final to steer the side to a victory.

Australia squad: Brad Hodge (c), Meyrick Buchanan, Cameron Borgas, Travis Birt, Tim Armstrong, Theo Doropoulos, Steve Paulsen.

Requirement Elicitation - Digital Forensics Forums | ForensicFocus ...

- lgallon

Hi,
Im a 3rd year forensic computing student doing my final year project on discovering artefacts created on a computer using facebook chat. As part of my project I have to do a Requirement elicitation, i would be grateful if anyone could please reply to my questions to help me with my elicitation. I have researched this area so I have gathered my own knowledge but i thought it would help to get advice from others as well.


Maybe you could post a short list/sum up of the knowledge you already gathered.
No offence whatsoever intended Smile , but the questions you asked are very generic/vague and/or truisms, and they may lead to useless answers.

Examples Shocked :

- lgallon


Would the artefacts benefit an investigator?


Any artefact, if part of or leading to a misconduct or criminal offence is useful, any artefact that does not it isn't.

- lgallon


How would the artefacts benefit an investigator?


Helping proving the misconduct/criminal offence?

- lgallon


What methods would an investigator take to achieve this?


He would look for artefacts, find them if they actually exist and link them - where applicable - to a misconduct or criminal offence.

Windows Phone Is Taking Share From RIM, But It?s Still Nowhere Near Breaking Through The Android/iOS Stronghold: Research

windows-phone-7Kantar Worldpanel ComTech, the WPP-owned market research group, today released its latest 12-week smartphone sales figures across the key markets in Europe, the U.S. and elsewhere, and the figures show that Microsoft's Windows Phone platform is definitely making some progress, and in at least one case, in Italy, overtaking RIM as the fourth-largest smartphone OS in terms of actual sales. But it has a long way to go before getting enough critical mass to challenge the combined dominance of Google's Android and Apple's iOS in the smartphone race. Combined, the latter two are currently accounting for 93% of sales in markets like the U.S. Kantar Worldpanel analyst Dominic Sunnebo tells TechCrunch that smartphone penetration in the UK is now at 57.6%, while the U.S. penetration is 42% (that includes both prepaid and postpaid).

Google withdraws U.S. patent complaint against Apple

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Google subsidiary Motorola Mobility has dropped a complaint of patent infringement against Apple without explanation.

In a brief filing with the International Trade Commission on Monday, Motorola Mobility said it was dropping without prejudice a complaint that Apple had infringed on seven Motorola patents.

Apple did not return telephone calls seeking comment and Google said only: "As we have said many times before, we will continue to vigorously defend our partners".

Google and Apple have been locked in an international patent war since 2010, as Apple has sought to limit the growth of Google's Android system. The fight has embroiled Samsung, HTCand others that use Android.

Reuters reported in August that the two companies were in settlement talks. Google said in its filing, however, that "there are no agreements between Motorola and Apple, written or oral, express or implied, concerning the subject matter of this investigation."

The complaint can be re-submitted.

Florian Mueller, who was first to report the withdrawal on his blog, said he believed that Google withdrew the complaint to prevent it from being consolidated with an earlier case, thus slowing that case down.

In that case, an ITC judge had said in a preliminary ruling that Apple infringed on a patent for eliminating noise and other interference during voice and data transmissions. A final decision is due next April.

"Maybe they ... wanted to maintain their chances of at least getting some win against Apple in the U.S. in 2013," Muller said in an email interview.

The biggest victory in the smartphone patent war so far belongs to Apple. On August 24, a jury in a California federal court ordered Samsung to pay $1.05 billion in damages after finding that Samsung had copied critical features of the iPhone and iPad.

Samsung was the top-selling mobile-phone maker in the second quarter of 2012, with Apple in third place, according to data from Gartner Inc.

Sportingbet pressures William Hill to up bid

LONDON (Reuters) - Online gambling firm Sportingbet Plc said a 350 million pound ($565 million) offer approach by bookmaker William Hill and GVC Holdings "significantly undervalues" it, but left the door open for a higher bid.

It had received a takeover approach at 52.5 pence per share, consisting of 45 pence in cash from William Hill and 7.5 pence in shares in smaller online betting firm GVC, Sportingbet said on Monday.

"The board of Sportingbet has responded that this indicative offer significantly undervalues the business and its future prospects," it said.

However, it did not say it was rejecting the offer outright.

The statement followed speculation in the weekend press that the board had received a letter containing the joint bid approach, which it had unanimously turned down.

Analysts expect the bidders to come back with a higher offer.

"We believe Sportingbet is worth over 60 pence per share, excluding any bid speculation, and expect Wednesday's full year results to show the business continues to make strong underlying progress," said Panmure Gordon analysts on Monday.

Sportingbet is forecast to report pre-tax profits of around 30 million pounds on sales of 200 million on Wednesday, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S estimates.

Sportingbet has seen its European operations struggle with the economic downturn and a changing regulatory map, but has a strong core Australian business that is attractive to traditional bookmaker William Hill as it expands overseas.

Numis said shareholders should hold out for 90 pence per share, citing the business growth potential and saying it was a chance for the bidder to snap up a bargain while trading was at a low point.

Shares have risen from a low of 26 pence in May to 44 pence just before the approach was announced last month, and have been trading at around the offer level since then.

The bidders have until October 16 to make a firm bid or walk away under UK takeover rules, although this deadline can be extended.

Sportingbet and William Hill both declined to comment further.
