Le Clos upsets Phelps in 200m butterfly

South Africa's Chad le Clos upset Michael Phelps to win the 200 metres butterfly final at the London Olympics today. Phelps, who was bidding to became the first male swimmer to win the same individual Ukraine Euro 2012 Jersey event at three Olympics, led all the way but messed up his touch allowing le Clos to get his hands on the wall first in a time of one minute 52.96 seconds. Phelps took the silver medal in 1:53.61 while Japan's Takeshi Matsuda was third in 1:53.21. The lone consolation for Phelps in suffering the shock defeat was that his second placing lifted his career tally to 18 medals, 14 gold, two silvers and two bronze, joining Soviet gymnast Larisa Latynina as the most decorated Olympian, though not for long. Barring a calamity or a major upset, Phelps was poised to claim his 19th medal and take the outright record with the United States heavily favoured to win the 4x200 freestyle relay later today. The 200 butterfly is one of the most physically demanding events in swimming but is also Phelps' favourite and ironically, he is known as the best finisher in the business, famously winning the 100 butterfly final in 2004 and 2008 when he was behind. He swam the 200 at the Sydney Olympics when he was just a 15-year-old and set his first world Cheap Soccer Jerseys record and won his first world title in the exhausting four-lap race. Only two swimmers have ever won the same individual event at three Olympics, Australia's Dawn Fraser, in 100 freestyle in 1956, 1960 and 1964, and Hungary's Krisztina Egerszegi in 200 backstroke in 1988, 1992 and 1996. It is a feat that has eluded generations of the best male swimmers until Phelps, who had the chance of doing it in four different events in London. He failed at his first attempt when he came fourth in the 400 individual medley but still has the 200 individual medley and 100 butterfly to come.

Ubisoft rush to fix security hole exposed by plug-in

A web browser add-on reportedly left users open to outside attackers gaining control of their computer. The Uplay software is bundled with major titles like Assassin's Creed. "We recommend that all Uplay users update their Uplay PC Wholesale Toms Classic Shoes application without a Web browser open," Ubisoft said. "This will allow the plug-in to update correctly. "An updated version of the Uplay PC installer with the patch also is available from Uplay.com."

The flaw was discovered by Tavis Ormandy, a Google employee. On a mailing list for information security experts and hobbyists, he wrote: "While on vacation recently I bought a video game called Assassin's Creed Revelations. I didn't have much of a chance to play it, but it seems fun so far. "However, I noticed the installation procedure creates a browser plug-in for it's accompanying Uplay launcher, which grants unexpectedly (at least to me) wide access to websites." It was discovered that any website could force users with the plug-in to open any program on their PC. To demonstrate this, one security researcher created a website proving the exploits' existence. When a person visited the website, the calculator program would launch. While the calculator is harmless, experts warned that the technique could be used to launch a potentially malicious program.

France foreign minister hopes for better China relations

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius wrapped up a visit to Beijing on Tuesday, saying he hoped for a "higher quality partnership" between France and China. France's top diplomat met Prime Minister Wen Jiabao and his likely successor Vice President Li Keqiang, a contrast to a February trip when Chinese leaders shunned him. At the time, he was a representative for then presidential candidate Francois Hollande. The trip was the first to China by a French minister since Hollande was Dame Nike Free Run 3 elected in May. "We are going to have a higher quality partnership and better relations than in the past," Fabius said at a news conference, referring to the "ups and downs" of France's relations under former president Nicolas Sarkozy. Fabius met his Chinese counterpart Yang Jiechi on Monday, with the two discussing the bloodshed in Syria among a range of international issues. Fabius said France and China remained at odds over Syria. Russia Dame Nike Free Hyper TR and China vetoed two UN Security Council resolutions criticising President Bashar al-Assad's regime earlier this year. "China needs to have the mindset that, if Assad falls, like we hope he will, there won't be chaos," he said. On economic relations, Fabius noted that France had a "major commercial imbalance" with China of 27 billion euros ($34 billion). "We need to fix that with cooperations in new sectors," Fabius said.

Radiation: Shall I compare thee to an angry Japanese wife?

TOKYO (Reuters) - A Japanese research agency has dropped a controversial public relations campaign aimed at educating women about nuclear safety that compared radiation to the screaming voice of an angry wife. The Japanese Atomic Energy Agency devoted a page on its website to an effort to "make the hard words used in the nuclear power industry" more easy to understand, particularly for women. The page, which included a cartoon of an angry, fist-waving wife and her cowering husband, compared the wife's yell to radiation. It continued the metaphor by saying that the women's increasing agitation could be compared to "radioactivity", while claiming the wife herself was comparable to "radioactive material". The webpage, first published in 2010, was dropped on Monday after the agency Nike Free Mænd received dozens of complaints. "I have no idea why this page suddenly attracted people's attention, but we would have deleted it earlier had we known about this page," said Yusuke Uehara, a spokesman for the government-affiliated agency which conducts nuclear research, including work on safety. "This discriminates against women, which is inappropriate." All 50 of Japan's operable nuclear reactors remain offline after a series of meltdowns and hydrogen explosions at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant forced evacuations and renewed scrutiny of Japan's policy towards atomic energy. Tokyo Electric Power, the operator of the Fukushima plant, said last month that Nike Free Run Mænd the radiation released in the first days of the Fukushima disaster was almost 2-1/2 times the amount first estimated by safety regulators. The accident was the world's worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl in 1986. The "radioactive wife" cartoon had been created by a group of six women who live near Tokaimura, site of a 1999 nuclear accident at a uranium reprocessing plant.

New study links teen sexting with having sex

Sexting is on the rise among teens, with more than one in four, or 28 percent, admitting to having sent a naked picture of themselves via text or email, according to new US research. Plus those teens who engaged in sexting were also found to be as much as 82 percent more likely to be having sex compared to the non-sexting teens. "It may be a reliable indicator of actual sexual behavior," says researcher Jeff R. Temple, PhD, assistant professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Texas Medical Branch Health in Galveston. The study, which polled 948 public high school students, is published in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine. Subjects, mostly 15 and 16 years old, answered questions about their sexting and sexual habits via an online poll. Temple found that 31 percent of the subjects said they had asked someone to send Nike Free Run 2 Mænd a naked picture; 57 percent said they had been asked to send a naked picture; and of those who were asked, most said the request bothered them. Among girls, more than 77 percent of those who had sent a sext reported having had sex, compared to 42 percent of the non-sexters. Among boys, nearly 82 percent of those who had sent a sext reported having had sex, compared to 45 percent of those who didn't sext. Plus the girls who engaged in sexting, but not the boys, were found to have a higher chance of risky sexual behavior, such as using drugs and alcohol before sex or having multiple partners. Although Temple found no gender differences between the percentage of those who had sent a sext, the boys were more likely than the girls to ask for one. Almost 70 percent of the girls had been asked, he noted. Another US study on teens and their sexting habits finds that nearly one in five teens have sent sexually explicit photos on their mobile phone -- many of them with little or no awareness of the possible psychological, social, and sometimes Nike Free Run 3 Mænd legal consequences of doing so. Those findings were published last month in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior. In May, British officials issued a report stating that teenage girls are experiencing increasing pressure to text and email sexually explicit pictures of themselves, with many accepting it "as a fact of life." In the report, sexting was said to affect more than a third of adolescents under the age of 18.

New York Rangers og Los Angeles Kings lagde ud med sejre i deres Conference-semifinaler mod Washington Capitals og St. Louis Blues. Washington Capitals fandt vej gennem deres f?rste-rundes m?de mod Boston med stor disciplin i defensiven, men overfor New York Rangers rakte det i f?rste kamp ikke til sejr.
