Back in 2009, NBC blessed the world with the workplace sitcom about a Parks and Recreation department set in a small town in Indiana and made audiences everywhere dream of working for their local government office. The characters and their hilarious escapades encapsulated how any small town in America could have countless stories to tell. Regardless of how much the Pawnee, Indiana parks and recreation department actually got done during the seven-year-long series, there were a few members of the staff who weren’t exactly firing on all cylinders....

I have been using the Otterbox Defender case for the iPhone 4S for a couple of months now and it is one of the most versatile and most protective pieces of phone protection currently on the market. The outer design of the case, what you and others see, is an apparently rubberized material – but do not be deceived by that soft appearance and soft feel. It is a heavy-duty case that does a fantastic job at protecting your phone....

She might not be as popular with fans as Jamie or Claire Fraser, but every fan of the Outlander series would agree the show wouldn’t be quite the same without Brianna Fraser or (Brianna MacKenzie as she is later known). Brianna’s story is unique in that she grew up in modern times, only finding out about time travel much later on, when her mother Claire opened up to her. Viewers have to respect the headstrong character who believed her mother and proceeded to go on an adventure through time....

Paul Thomas Anderson made his feature film debut in 1996 with Hard Eight, and his reputation as one of the most intensive and methodical current American moviemakers has continued to grow since then.

Anderson has cited directors like Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, and Martin Scorsese as influences....

Look, we hear you. We’re all on the same boat here - it’s been almost a year since the last episode of Outlander graced our screens. And while the season 5 premiere is less than a month away, the closer it gets, it somehow feels like time goes slower.

Thankfully, we live in a day and age where plenty of distractions can come your way while you anxiously await the return of a beloved show....

It seems not all is well with the Final Cut Studio development team, with a report claiming release of the next version of the insanely widely-used professional video-editing solution has been set back until 2011. We had originally been expecting Final Cut Studio would ship this year, but development has suffered “significant setbacks”, a French report explains.

Pandora has a new audio feature out today called Pandora Stories — and no, it’s not another Snapchat clone. The streaming service is pairing its existing catalog of music playlists with its growing collection of podcasts (sort of) to create a new listening experience. Here’s the pitch for Stories from Pandora: As a fan of both audio forms, it’s a neat concept (even if Pandora is using the term ‘podcast’ generously here)....

The solution to notify the CSP beforehand seems easy but has a few caveats. Communication is key here, and the method of communication is just as important to the message itself. The CSP will need to be alerted in a timely, clear and precise manner. The notification should include the time and scope of the planned test. The actual test should not deviate from this notification. The most important aspect of the limitations of cloud service penetration testing is where the responsibilities of the system start and end....

Originally published in the ’90s, Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander book series has proven to be widely successful. Then following the Starz TV show adaptation, it became even more popular in spite of the occasional liberties the show takes from the books. That said, Gabaldon’s themes on time travel, romance, and historical drama are far from unique as there are other book series that deal with them. While some were arguably influenced by Outlander, a few preceded it....

Activision Blizzard just can’t seem to catch a break. In light of the news that yet another law firm is trying to get a lead plaintiff together in the class action suits being contemplated by investors, it’s now been revealed that the Activision Blizzard layoffs are going to affect over 200 employees from the Blizzard portion of the corporation. Activision had announced last month that it would be laying off staff to narrow its focus onto well-performing, popular franchises like Overwatch....

An overheating Apple iPod bought trains on Tokyo’s insanely busy commuter train network to an unscheduled stop for eight minutes during the city’s early morning rush hour this morning, Reuters reports. The train was stopped at around 8.20am (Japan) in western Tokyo’s Setagaya Ward while officials investigated the cause of the smell, said a spokesman for Tokyu Corp. “When a member of staff went to investigate inside the train, a passenger came over showing him that the iPod she was listening to had burst apart,” the spokesman told Reuters, confirming local reports....
