Dawn of the bot? New era nears, experts say Science fiction is quickly taking a back seat to science fact. Just look at a new report by the country's leading roboticists. By 2030, it says, robots will be everywhere. At the gym, they'll help you train. In operating rooms, flea-sized robots will zip through your blood vessels to repair tissues. Using voice commands and hand gestures, humans will control robots in the cold vacuum of space, while bots deep underwater and high in the air will collaborate to protect the U.S. from natural disasters and military threats. That's the robot future envisioned by researchers at top U.S. universities including Georgia Tech, MIT, Stanford and Carnegie Mellon. In the collaborative report, they predict that robots will become "as ubiquitous over the next decades as computer technology is today.“ At home and in the operating room In surgery, robots will not only match human skills, by 10 and 15 years from now, they will likely surpass them. Robot butlers will help bathe and dress people with disabilities, not just in doctor's offices or hospitals, but at home. Robotsand industry On the road, robot drivers 15 years from now will be able to drive anywhere humans can, and will be safer than humans with limited road experience. They'll also be able to learn to navigate in extreme weather and other atypical situations. Those killer robots In 15 years, military robots will be able to participate in "collaborative engagement ... against a standoff threat" on the ground and in the air, says the report. Military robots will eventually monitor city coastlines like Manhattan or Miami, in the event of a terrorist warning, or stand guard over critical infrastructure, such as an oil pipeline
3 girls found By Bill Hutchinson / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Three Cleveland women who vanished at different times during adolescence roughly a decade ago were miraculously found alive Monday in a city home after a neighbor heard a desperate cry for help and kicked the door down. Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight Amanda Marie Berry went missing at age 16 on April were delivered from captivity when Berry 21, 2003 after leaving her managed to stick her arm through the home’s job at Burger King busted front door about 6 p.m., drawing the attention of neighbor Charles Ramsey. “I heard screaming ... and I see this girl going nuts trying to get outside,” said Ramsey. “I go on the porch and she said, ‘Help me get out! I’ve been here a long time!’” “She says, ‘Call 911! My name is Amanda Berry!’ Amanda Berry (center) reunited with her sister (l.) in the hospital after Berry and two other women who had been missing for a decade were found alive in a house not far from where they were last seen.
” Ramsey said he kicked open the door, unlocking the secrets concealed in the home on Seymour Ave., just south of Cleveland’s downtown. Berry, missing for a decade and now 27, begged a 911 dispatcher once outside to send police. “I’ve been kidnapped, and I’ve been missing for
After 10 years 10 years,” she cried out. “And I’m here! I’m free now!” Also inside the home were DeJesus, who disappeared nine years ago and is now 23, and Knight, 32, who went missing 12 years ago. Berry's 6-year-old daughter was also found inside the home, cops said. It wasn't clear where she was born or who her father was.
Police took three brothers into custody: Ariel Castro, 52, O'Neal Castro, 50 and Pedro Castro, 54. Ariel Castro, a former Cleveland school bus driver, owned the twostory home and has lived there since 1992, police said. See more on our Webcast News
At least 19 injured in New Orleans Mother’s Day shooting By Andrew Rafferty, Staff Writer, NBC News At least 19 people were injured on Sunday when multiple gunmen opened fire on a Mother’s Day parade in New Orleans, police said. A 10-year-old boy and 10-year-old girl were grazed by bullets but were in good condition, New Orleans Police spokesman Garry Flot said in a statement. A woman and a man were in surgery Sunday evening, but there were no fatalities and most wounds were not life threatening, police said. At least three people were spotted running away from the scene after the shooting on North Villere Street in the 7th Ward neighborhood at 1:45 p.m. At least one suspect was described as a man between the ages of 18 and 22. New Orleans Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas said there may have been as many as three shooters, and that two different types of weapons were likely used. The victims were marching in what is known as a second line parade, which are common in New Orleans: A brass band plays while marching in the streets, while a “second line” of people follows the band, celebrating. Officials said the parade was two blocks long and included about 400 people. The crime scene was about 1.5 miles from the heart of the French Quarter and near the Treme neighborhood, which has been the centerpiece for the HBO TV series "Treme." “These are unusual circumstances. We have second lines which occur in the city of New Orleans virtually every weekend at this time of the year,” Serpas said. “We had a full complement of police officers. It appears that these two or three people just for a reason unknown to us, started shooting at towards, or in the crowd. It was over in just a couple seconds.” Mayor Mitch Landrieu said the shooting was part of "the relentless drum beat of violence" on the streets of New Orleans. "It’s a shame and its got to stop," he told The Times-Picayune from outside New Orleans' Interim LSU Public Hospital. "You see it cascading across the country but we have more of it than anyone else." Detectives were conducting interviews and retrieving surveillance video from around the scene. Landrieu urged anyone with information about the shooting to come forward. He added: "These kinds of incidents will not go unanswered. Somebody knows something. The way to stop

this violence is for you all to help." Second lines have been targets for violence in New Orleans in recent years. In the past, shooters have targeted a specific person in the crowd, which authorities say may have been the case Sunday as well. But Landrieu dismissed the notion of outlawing the Louisiana tradition. “It’s not the second line that did the shooting,” he said. “The cultural events are very important to us, it’s like calling for an end to Mardi Gras because someone takes an opportunity to shoot someone during one of our parades.” “Second lines have been with us for a long, long time,” Landrieu added. “They are an important part of our culture and our heritage.” Mary Beth Romig, a spokeswoman for the FBI in New Orleans, told The Associated Press that federal investigators have no indication that the shooting was an act of terrorism.

North Korea axes hard-line defense chief By Hyung-Jin Kim, The Associated Press SEOUL, South Korea -- North Korea has replaced its hardline defense chief with a little-known army general, according to a state media report Monday, in what outside analysts call an attempt to install a younger figure meant to solidify leader Kim Jong Un's grip on the powerful military. Jang Jong Nam's appointment is the latest move since Kim succeeded his late father in late 2011 that observers see as a young leader trying to consolidate control. The announcement comes amid easing animosities after weeks of warlike threats between the rivals, including North Korean vows of nuclear strikes. Pyongyang's rhetorical outbursts against massive U.S.-South Korean war drills and U.N. sanctions over the North's February nuclear test were Seen in part, as a push to portray Kim Jong Un at home as a respected military commander on the world stage.
Gen. Kim Kyok Sik, right, stands with then-North Korean leader Kim Jong Il on April 23, 2007. He was reportedly replaced by little-known army General Jang Jong Nam on Monday.
Jang's new role as minister of the People's Armed Forces, however, isn't thought to indicate a potential softening of Pyongyang's stance toward Seoul and Washington any time soon, analysts said. Jang replaces Kim Kyok Sik, the former commander of battalions believed responsible for attacks on South Korea in 2010 that killed 50 South Koreans. Outsiders don't know much about Jang, but analysts said it's unlikely that Kim Jong Un would name a moderate to the post at a time of tension with the outside world. Mention of Jang's new role was buried in a state media dispatch listing those who attended an art performance with Kim Jong Un. It's not known exactly when Jang was formally appointed to the ministerial post. The announcement coincided with the beginning Monday of U.S.-South Korean naval exercises involving a nuclear-powered U.S. aircraft carrier. North Korea has criticized the carrier's inclusion in the drills, which it claims are preparations for an invasion of the North. Also, when tensions peaked in March, Washington took the unusual step of announcing that nuclear-capable B-52 and B-2 bombers had participated in the earlier, larger-scale joint drills between the allies. North Korea regularly cites the powerful U.S. nuclear arsenal and Washington's deployment of those assets in the region as justification for its own pursuit of nuclear weapons. One of the most notable changes from Kim Jong Un was the replacement of the powerful military chief, Ri Yong Ho, who was dismissed because of what Pyongyang called an unspecified illness. Outside observers speculated that Ri, who held a different post than the one Jang has been appointed to, was purged as Kim tried to put his stamp on his government. Ri was also replaced by a little-known general. State media previously identified Jang as head of the army's First Corps and said he pledged allegiance to Kim Jong Un and threatened South Korea in a speech last December. Jang was quoted as saying that his corps would annihilate its enemies and "turn each ravine into their death pitfall when the hour of decisive battle comes." Kim Jong Un appears to be naming someone from a new generation to bolster his rule of the 1.2 millionmember military, said Chang Yong Seok at the Institute for Peace and Unification Studies at Seoul National University. Jang is believed to be in 50s, while his predecessor, Kim Kyok Sik, is in his early 70s, according to Seoul's Unification Ministry, which is responsible for dealings with the North.
Having another kid? What costs more than having a child? Having more children, of course. Here are some ways to cushion the financial blow when you're expecting again. By Raechel Conover, Cheapism.com Another bundle of joy It's no secret that a baby costs a lot in the first year (and the second, and the third ...). A middle-income family welcoming a second child can expect to spend about $12,370, according the most recent estimate by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which releases an annual report on the subject. For parents, the numbers are downright scary. But as I prepare for my second baby, due to arrive very soon, I realize I've picked up some ways to cut baby costs this time around. Click ahead for a look at seven tips that should help even first-time parents spend a lot less. Reuse everything With my first child, I wanted everything to be brand new just for him. While I did get many new things from various baby showers, I spent a fortune on baby gear and clothes, and all my son did was soil everything within the first few months. Even now that he's 2, he couldn't care less about having new things. This second child will be all about secondhand -- I won't turn up my nose at any boxes of old baby clothes. With my children so close in age (just two years apart) the crib, infant car seat and other newborn baby gear we already have are still up to current standards. If you're considering reusing such things, check with the Consumer Product Safety Commission to make sure they still fall in line with the agency's guidelines and haven't been recalled. Breast-feed if you can For some people, breast-feeding just doesn't work, and there is no shame in that. I get it: For medical reasons, it didn't work for me the first time around. But I can also tell you that we spent $40 a week on formula -- sometimes more -- for almost the entire first year of my son's life. Think about that. Any positive health benefits aside, the effect on your wallet makes breastfeeding well worth it. That brings me to my next piece of advice for saving on baby costs ‌ Don't invest in breast-feeding supplies (yet) As with clothes and other baby gear, I went all out with the breast-feeding paraphernalia. I bought nursing tops, nursing bras, nursing covers, nursing pillows, a top-of-the-line breast pump -- you name it. Sadly I was able to breast-feed for only two months, and all those pricey supplies sat wasted in the basement until I recently dug them out for baby No. 2. My advice: Wait a month or two to see if breast-feeding is working for you and your child before you invest in any specialized equipment. Even then, don't go overboard. All you really need is yourself and a willing newborn. That said, if you plan to work outside the home, a good breast pump is a worthy investment. As of August 2012, the Affordable Care Act requires insurance companies to cover breast pumps and lactation counseling services as preventive care for women. Given that breast pumps can cost upward of $300, it's definitely worth a call to your insurance provider to find out exactly which breast pumps and services are included in your plan
7 ways to save Take advantage of freebies Baby care is a booming business and companies all want your loyalty, so they're more than willing to give out free samples and coupons. As a new mom, I quickly figured out that freebies are everywhere; you just have to ask. Babywipe samples kept my diaper bag stocked for nearly a year. I also got a free baby sling, car seat cover and nursing cover just from digging around a little online for coupons and coupon codes. I've already been requesting samples of these supplies for the new baby and have a good stockpile going Take what the hospital provides I never would have thought to clear out our hospital room after the birth of my first child, but my sister-inlaw, a labor and delivery nurse, brought an empty bag and promptly packed up all the extra diapers, wipes, and formula. Come to find out, the hospital is required to throw these things away if you leave them behind (for sanitary reasons). It was certainly a nice way to get a week's worth of diapers and a few days' worth of formula. This time around, I will have a bag ready for those extra baby supplies. Buy diapers in bulk OK, cloth diapers may be cheaper if you clean them yourself and don't go through a service, but the less I need to handle bodily byproducts, the better, so we go the disposable route. After a few months of paying mind-boggling amounts for diapers at the grocery store every week, I did some research on ways to cut baby costs and found that buying diapers in bulk from a place like Sam's Club, Costco, or Amazon.com saves huge amounts of money. The Amazon Mom program is free for the first three months and essentially gets you a free Amazon Prime membership in addition to 20% off diapers and wipes. After that, you can choose to pay the $79 membership fee or cancel and go elsewhere. Diapers.com offers free two-day delivery on orders over $49 and 5% back. Make your own baby food Like most other baby things, baby food is expensive. Brands like Gerber start at around $1 per jar, and organic varieties cost even more. That adds up fast, especially if your child works his way up to five to seven jars a day, like mine eventually did. Making your own food is a much cheaper option -- albeit a little more time consuming. All you really need is a small food processor and fresh veggies or fruit. This time around, I plan to steam a few extra vegetables from our meals and mash up fresh fruit for the baby. I hope to freeze extras, too, so I have a nice stash to choose from on days when I don't have time to make any.
How To Protect yourself By Charles Laloma

Identity Theft The FDIC has created this webpage to inform consumers of information the FDIC has made available on identity theft. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, Identity theft is becoming more sophisticated and the number of new victims is growing. In general, consumers are protected against liability for unauthorized accounts or transactions under federal and state law and by financial industry practices. However, innocent victims of Identity theft sometimes do suffer losses. And if the crime is not detected early, people may face months or years cleaning up the damage to their reputation and credit rating, and sometimes they lose out on loans, jobs and other opportunities in the meantime. The evolution of Identity theft includes the spread of fraudulent "phishing" e-mails. These are unsolicited e-mails purportedly from a legitimate source perhaps your bank, utility company, well-known merchants, your Internet service provider or even a trusted government agency such as the FDIC - attempting to trick you into divulging personal information. Identity Theft can affect consumers in many ways, but there are also many ways to keep your identity from being "hijacked," and to assist you if you have been a victim of it: Protect your Social Security number (SSN), credit card and debit card numbers, PINs (personal identification numbers), passwords and other personal information. Protect your incoming and outgoing mail. Keep your financial trash "clean." Keep a close watch on your bank account statements and credit card bills. Avoid identity theft on the Internet. Exercise your new rights under FACTA to review your credit record and report fraudulent activity. Below are selected links to information about identity thef

Looking for a body-sculpting, endorphin-unleashing workout you'll actually stick with? Take your sweat sessions outside. Compared with the gym, exercising outdoors has been linked to an increase in overall satisfaction and a decrease in perceived exertion (meaning, you'll want to ramp up your intensity). Nature's uneven terrain also challenges your muscles more than fitness machines do, giving you a better workout and, possibly, a slimmer waistline: A study found that running outside requires more effort—i.e., burns more calories—than slogging on a treadmill. Yet only 22 percent of women exercise outside, per our "Health Benefits of Nature" survey. You can do better!

10 things to know Almost all Americans who work pay into the Medicare system, but not everyone knows about the benefits they will become eligible for when they turn 65. Here are 10 things to know about the valuable health insurance you will get in retirement: 1. Tax rate. Most workers pay 1.45% of their earnings into the Medicare trust fund, and companies pay a matching 1.45% per employee. Selfemployed workers pay 2.9% of their earned income into the trust fund. Beginning in 2013, the Affordable Care Act enacted an additional Medicare tax equal to 0.9% of earnings over $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for couples. 2. When to sign up. You can sign up for Medicare beginning three months before you turn 65, and coverage can start as soon as the first day of your birthday month. The initial enrollment period lasts until three months after your 65th birthday. If you fail to sign up during the seven-month window around your 65th birthday, you can sign up between Jan. 1 and March 31 each year (and get coverage that begins on July 1), but you may be required to pay permanently higher premiums for late enrollment. Monthly Part B premiums increase by 10% for each 12month period you were eligible for Medicare but didn't sign up for it. If you or your spouse is employed and covered by a group health plan at work, you must sign up within eight months of leaving the job or the coverage ending to avoid the higher premiums. "It's really important to plan in advance and to sign up during that time," says Nicole Duritz, vice president for health and family at AARP. "If you choose to sign up later, it will end up costing you more." 3. Premium costs. Most retirees don't pay a premium for Medicare Part A hospital insurance. The standard premium amount for Medicare Part B medical insurance is $104.90 per month in 2013, but retirees who earn more than $85,000 ($170,000 for couples) pay higher premiums. 4. Other out-of-pocket expenses. Just as with private health insurance, Medicare has deductibles, copays and coinsurance. The Part B deductible is $147 in 2013, after which Medicare typically pays 80% of the Medicare-approved amount of the service. There's no annual limit on what you might need to pay out-ofpocket. 5. Supplemental coverage. It's difficult to predict how much your out-of-pocket costs will be with traditional Medicare, so many retirees supplement their Medicare coverage with a Medicare Advantage or Medigap plan. These plans charge an additional premium, but fill in many of Medicare's cost-sharing requirements and sometimes cover additional services that traditional Medicare doesn't cover. "For many people, purchasing a Medigap policy will give people some peace of mind that those expenses will be covered if they have very high medical expenses," says Juliette Cubanski, a Medicare policy analyst at the Kaiser Family Foundation. There is a one-time Medigap open-enrollment period that starts the month you turn 65 and enroll in Part B and lasts six months. During this period, you have a guaranteed right to buy any Medigap policy sold in your state regardless of your health condition. After this period, you could be denied coverage or pay higher premiums. "No one can say no to you, no matter what your health status is during that six-month period," says Duritz. "After that six months, there is no guarantee that a plan will accept you and offer you a supplemental plan."
about Medicare 6. Free physicals. You can get a free "welcome to Medicare" preventative care doctor's visit during the first 12 months that you have Medicare Part B, which generally includes a review of your medical history and recommendations about preventative care. Once you've had Medicare for a year, you become eligible for annual wellness visits to a doctor to make a personalized plan to prevent disease. "The new 'welcome to Medicare' physical exam gives people an opportunity to get a check-up and get a run-down of all the prevention benefits that they might be entitled to," says Cubanski. "It's a nice opportunity for people when they come on to Medicare to get into the system and perhaps into a plan of prevention and health promotion that they might not have had an opportunity to take advantage of prior to signing up for Medicare." 7. Free preventative care. Many preventative services are now covered without a deductible or other costsharing requirements, due to provisions of the Affordable Care Act, including bone mass measurements and breast cancer screenings. But additional costs could be charged if a problem is found. For example, colonoscopies are covered at no cost, but if a polyp is found and removed during the colonoscopy, you may then have to pay 20 percent of the Medicare-approved amount for the doctor's services and/or a copayment to the medical facility. 8. How to pick a Part D plan. Retirees get to choose a new Medicare Part D prescription drug plan each year during an annual enrollment period from Oct.. 15 to Dec. 7. It's a good idea to shop around for a new plan even if you're happy with your current coverage because premiums, covered medications, out-ofpocket costs and the plans offered change each year. "While you're always automatically renewed in the same plan from one year to the next, it is smart to take a look, ideally every year, to see what's happened with your own plan, whether the premium has increased and whether your needs have changed," says Jack Hoadley, a health policy analyst at Georgetown University. "You can often save money simply by making a new choice." If you don't join a Medicare prescription drug plan when you're first eligible or go without prescription drug coverage for a period of 63 or more days in a row after you qualify, you may have to pay a late-enrollment penalty. There's also a coverage gap in many Medicare Part D plans, often called the "donut hole," but the gap is scheduled to be gradually eliminated by 2020. 9. What is not covered. There are a variety of medical services commonly used by older people that Medicare doesn't cover, including routine dental or eye care, dentures and hearing aids. Medicare also does not cover extensive long-term care in a nursing home or assisted living facility. 10. Funding deficit. The Medicare hospital insurance trust fund is expected to be depleted earlier than the Social Security trust funds. The trust fund has paid out more in hospital benefits and other expenditures than it received in income since 2008, and is projected to be exhausted in 2024, according to the 2012 Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees reports. Potential strategies to fix the funding shortfall include increasing the payroll tax from 2.9% to 4.25%, reducing expenditures by 26% or some more gradual combination of the two approaches.
Vin Diesel: Facebook 'Owes Me Billions Of Dollars' "Fast & Furious" Diesel on his Facebook popularity: "It was only because I said, ‘Hi, guys, I love you.’" With 41 million likes on Facebook, "Fast & Furious 6" star Vin Diesel is one of the most popular celebrities on the social networking site.But how did the action star create such a successful online persona? He got in the game early. “What Facebook didn’t realize is something very big was about to happen, and that was — for the first time in history, and it’s kind of a fluke they didn’t see this coming — when I jumped on that page in April 2009, I started talking to people. In the realest ways,” Diesel tells Entertainment Weekly in a new interview. “So, when I had started my page, the only person that had a million fans was Barack Obama. Because it was first-quarter 2009, and he’d just got elected as President, because of social media,” Diesel explains. “So, when I started talking to the fans, I became the No. 1 page in the world. Over Coca-Cola, over huge companies. And it was only because I said: ‘Hi, guys, I love you.’" The 45-year-old actor continues, “Imagine if you could’ve been a Facebook friend to Marlon Brando , or whoever your role models are. Imagine, if you were able to Facebook Elvis , and talk to him, and hear from him without the Hollywood of it all. That was the ' Fast & Furious' experience.” "I think Hollywood, and the choices Hollywood has made, would’ve been radically different if Clark Gable had 40 million people on his Facebook page," Diesel added. At one point, Diesel was the number one fan page in the world — and even Facebook corporate didn't understand why. Diesel says the Facebook team asked him “to come up to their office to explain what the f--- I was doing, and why I had so many fans.” “Facebook really owes me billions of dollars,” he jokes. “But whatever.”
After 17 years, sisters reunite at a D.C. track meet By DAVID MCCORMACK PUBLISHED: 23:47 EST, 11 May 2013
A chance meeting at an athletics track has led to two 17-year-old girls discovering that they are in fact long lost sisters. Jordan and Robin were born just nine months apart. Jordan was adopted shortly after birth, while Robin initially lived with her biological mother before being taken into foster care and eventually living with a legal guardian. Although both lived in Washington D.C., played some of the same sports, and attended schools just minutes apart their paths never crossed until that fateful day in January. At the track meeting, friends of Jordan told her there was another girl at the event who looked just like her. The two girls started talking and before long Jordan was crying after finding out that Robin's last name was Jeter. ‘I had already known about my adoption and I knew my last name was Jeter,’ Jordan told USAToday. That night the two girls talked on the phone and compared birth certificates in an attempt to work out if they really could be sisters. It is uncanny how similar the two girls are, despite spending none of their 17 years together. As well as looking alike, they sound alike, both have double jointed thumbs and wear the same shoe size. It is also a reunion that almost never happened, as Jordan had only joined the track team to stay in shape. 'If I wouldn't have, I would have never met her,' she said. 'I'm so thankful I joined track.‘ Now that they've found each other their next task is to track down their other siblings and so far four have been found. 'It's been so long I just feel like I'll never be apart from her,' said Jordan, who is set to meet for biological mom for the first time on Mother's Day.

Available' Selena Gomez confirms she's not with Justin Bieber... and announces her mother is expecting a baby By CASSIE CARPENTER PUBLISHED: 00:27 EST, 13 May 2013
She sparked rumours of reuniting with ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber after a racy tweet in April. But Selena Gomez confirmed she was 'absolutely available in every way' in an interview with Boston Kiss 108 on Friday. The radio host eased into the subject by asking the Spring Breakers starlet what she would say to a boy on the street who asked her out for ice-cream. 'You're available?' the Beantown DJ probed. 'Yep,' the former Disney star responded. 'By the way, that would be awesome if someone asked if I wanted ice-cream because that would be cool.' Selena, who turns 21 in July, recently described her on/off relationship with the Canadian crooner as 'crazy and intense.’ Meanwhile, Selena Tweeted a picture of her stroking what appeared to be her mother's baby bump. She wrote: 'Hope all the amazing moms had a great day! I have the best momma in the world :)) I love you so much!' Mandy and her husband Brian married when Selena was five-years-old – they lost a baby in a miscarriage two years ago. Gomez appeared on the radio show to promote her upcoming world tour and new summer album, Stars Dance. 'I'm shifting everything back to music now,' she said of her new Skrillex-inspired 'baby dubstep.' 'We're getting the second single geared up and it's actually one of my favorite songs off the album.’ The brunette beauty's music video for her new single Come & Get It, helmed by Anthony Mandler, already has over 15.3 million views on Vimeo.
