Lawmakers? tone in response to the attack in Boston started to shift subtly Tuesday, when Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell took to the Senate floor to suggest ?the complacency that prevailed prior to September 11th?has returned.?
The Kentucky Republican echoed President Obama?s sentiment that ?the two parties stand united today in our deepest sympathy for all of those who were affected,? but he quickly raised concerns that the sense of vigilance after September 11th, 2001, has abated.
?On 9/11, we were forever disabused of the notion that attacks like the one that rocked Boston yesterday only happen on the field of battle, or in distant countries. With the passage of time, however, and the vigilant efforts of our military, intelligence, and law enforcement professionals, I think it?s safe to say that, for many, the complacency that prevailed prior to September 11th?has returned,? he said.
Congress was beginning on Tuesday to ask questions about what U.S. intelligence and law enforcement knew before the attacks and what they have learned so far in the investigation, including Sen. Dick Durbin, D.-Ill., who said he wants to know what more could have been done.
?What's the source of this and was there more that could have been done?" he said, when asked what questions he has for the administration.
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren is in Boston and getting more frequent, almost hourly updates that she is sharing with other members, according to Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.
"I am working with Elizabeth Warren and the Massachusetts delegation,? said Boxer, who has not had any direct communication with law enforcement or intelligence. "I don't think they (officials) need to be bombarded with questions from California. I talked with them yesterday and they said they are having almost hourly briefings. They are very on top of things so I don't need to.?
Most members were offering words of support and saying, as did Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, that Congress should "make sure the administration has enough resources to fully investigate everything.?
But some were already using the Boston bombings as reason to slow action on big pieces of legislation, including immigration.
?Some of the speculation that has come out is that yes, it was a foreign national and, speculating here, that it was potentially a person on a student visa,? Conservative Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, said, according to a National Review story. ?If that?s the case, then we need to take a look at the big picture.?
The FBI plans to brief lawmakers from both parties on the Hill at 4:30 p.m. The Senate Intelligence Committee also is scheduled to be briefed on Tuesday afternoon. A similar House Intelligence briefing originally scheduled for the morning has been postponed.
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc has grabbed more than a fifth of the market for digital music downloads, helped by the launch of its own tablet computers and aggressive pricing, according to an industry study released on Tuesday.
AmazonMP3, the online retailer's digital music business, had 22 percent of the market for music downloads in the United States in last year's fourth quarter, research firm the NPD Group said in its Annual Music Study.
That compares with 15 percent in 2011, 13 percent in 2010, 10 percent in 2009 and 7 percent in 2008, NPD data showed.
Apple Inc's iTunes store, which turns 10 years old on April 28, was still dominant with 63 percent of the market in the fourth quarter of 2012. But that was down from 68 percent in 2011 and 69 percent in 2009, according to NPD.
"Amazon's entry into tablets probably helped," said Russ Crupnick, senior vice president, industry analysis, at NPD Group.
Amazon launched its own tablet, the Kindle Fire, in 2011, and last year the company rolled out larger versions of the device to compete more with Apple's iPad.
Amazon is using the Kindle Fire to try to sell more digital goods, such as music, video, apps and games, where iTunes leads.
Amazon, known for low prices, has also taken that approach in music downloads, running frequent price promotions to spur more sales. In 2011, the company offered Lady Gaga's album "Born This Way" for 99 cents in MP3 format. Demand was so strong that Amazon's computer servers stalled, forcing the company to run the promotion again a few days later.
Amazon has also benefited from a large base of consumers who buy physical CDs from the retailer. As those shoppers switch to digital music, the company has managed to keep many of them as customers, Crupnick explained.
Amazon sells digital music without Digital Rights Management, or DRM, a technology that limits how people can consume such content. The company's DRM-free approach boosted demand because it let consumers listen to music on any devices, including Apple devices like iPods and iPhones, Crupnick said.
Even as Amazon gains in this area, the focus is shifting to digital music streaming, currently provided by smaller companies such as Pandora Media Inc and Spotify.
Google Inc, Amazon and Apple are among Silicon Valley powerhouses that have been sounding out top recording industry executives as they look for ways to make streaming profitable.
DC wanted to indulge me on my birthday and took me to KL not just to see Noid and Cheese, but also to eat. We got rituals like going on pilgrimage to Klang out of the way quickly, and on the day of my birthday, we found ourselves at Fierce Curry House. I?d first heard of Fierce Curry House on Facebook when it ran its tight T-shirt promotion: the first few men who showed up in tight V-neck shirts and carrying a man bag would get free biryani. What a great stunt that even I heard of it down south in Singapore. When a friend posted a picture of the lobster biryani, we were sold. That?s how we found ourselves off the main Bangsar drag in front of a slightly shabby stretch of shophouses. It looks like a typical non-airconned place from the outside, with a large steamer stack full of biryanis and a large thosai/roti canai griddle in the front. Venture inside, however, and there?s a fairly spacious airconditioned area, complete with a crazy number of exhaust fans on the walls.
We weren?t here to ogle the walls, but the large steamer full of biryani that we?d pre-ordered. They set it over solid fuel camp stoves to keep it warm?
? and sealed the biryani pot with dough to keep the moisture and flavour in. We were so excited we couldn?t wait for the latecomers and asked them to go ahead with the unveiling. It was such a spectacle that other tables started taking pictures of our biryani too!
At first, we wondered where the lobster, was?
? and pretty much sighed with relief when each half emerged after a spot of digging with the tongs.
One of the sweet servers gamely held up the whole thing for a nice photo op before whisking it to the kitchen. We almost yelled after her ?where are you going with my lobster?!? before realising that they needed to chop it up for us first.
In the mean time, we contented ourselves with taking pictures of the fragrant rice and accompanying gravies and raitas.
Then the lobster made its comeback and we happily dug in.
The verdict? The lobster itself was a tad overrated. While of a decent size, there isn?t a great deal of meat in one lobster to go with the easily six servings of rice in the pot. The meat itself was rather mushy, showing that it?s most likely frozen lobster. But the rice itself was a revelation. It was proper basmati rice that was beautifully fluffy and infused with the scent of cardamom and most strongly of lobster. Cooking it dum style sealed in all the goodness and allowed the lobster flavour to permeate. It was just as well that the lobster meat wasn?t that great. Still, for RM240, it?s expensive even by Singapore standards.
Other dishes included the highly rated deep-fried bitter gourd. It was very nicely crisp and intensely bitter ? they made it with the proper kind of bitter gourd, the deep green and prettily frilled baby ones.
?
We heard good things about the lamb dishes and ordered a lamb masala to complement the lobster. It was wonderfully tender and with nicely melded spices ? excellent with the biryani rice or a thosai on the side.
?
Fierce Curry House is a nice place to check out for the spectacle of a proper biryani. They use decent quality ingredients (especially if you consider frozen lobster decent quality), but is of course pricier because you?re paying for the brand, the Bangsar location and the aircon room. I?d go again because exchange rate is much in my favour!

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In 2013, I pledge to conspire with you to increase your mastery of the art of friendship. Together we will concentrate on making you an even stronger ally than you already are. We will upgrade your skill at expressing your feelings with open-hearted clarity, and in ways that don't make people defensive. We will also inspire you to help others communicate effectively in your presence. I hope you understand that doing this work will empower you to accomplish feats that were never before possible for you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Chickens and alligators share a common ancestor. Seventy million years ago, they were both archosaurs. That's why chickens possess a gene that has the ability to grow teeth. A few years ago, a biological researcher at the University of Wisconsin managed to activate this capacity, inducing a few mutant chickens to sprout alligator teeth. I predict there will be a metaphorically comparable event happening for you in 2013, Taurus. The "chicken" part of you will acquire some of the gravitas of an alligator.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): "People wish to learn to swim and at the same time to keep one foot on the ground," said French novelist Marcel Proust. An attitude like that is always a barrier to growth, of course, but in 2013 it would be especially ill advised for you Geminis. In order to win full possession of the many blessings that will be offering themselves to you, you will have to give up your solid footing and dive into the depths over and over again. That may sometimes be a bit nerve-racking. But it should also generate the most fun you've had in years.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Here's the horoscope I hope to be able to write for you a year from now: You escaped the chains that kept you enslaved to your primary source of suffering. You broke the trance it kept you in, and you freed yourself from its demoralizing curse. Now you have forged a resilient new relationship with your primary source of suffering ? a relationship that allows you to deal with it only when it's healthy for you to do so and only when you feel strong enough to do it. Very nicely done! Congratulations! Excellent work!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): "In this world," said Oscar Wilde, "there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it." I'm counting on you to refute the last part of that questionable assertion, Leo. According to my analysis of the long-term astrological omens, you will definitely be getting what you want in the next six months. You will receive your prize . . . you will earn your badge . . . you will win a big game or claim your birthright or find your treasure. When that happens, I trust you will make sure it is an enduring blessing. There will be no sadness involved!

Even most hardcore Lego enthusiasts don't need a machine that can automatically sort axle pieces by length. But that probably means that Akiyuki is on a whole other level compared to most Lego maniacs, particularly since this entire complicated contraption runs on just a single drive motor. Say wha? If you need a distraction that just might melt your brain today, you've officially found it. [LEGO TECHNIC contraption room via The Awesomer] More »
