Dad Creates Time-Lapse Video Showing Mom What Really Happens While She's Away When Mommy is away, Dad and son will play. And if your dad works in the video production business, that playtime gets filmed, turned into a time-lapse video and instantly goes viral. Emio Tomeoni, 30, of Kansas City, Mo., works odd hours and often finds himself at home during the day with his 21-month-old son, Xavier. He would always tell his wife, Stephanie Ramos, 31, about the adventures he'd had with his son that day, but really wanted her to see it rather than just hear about it. "We both have perfect jobs, but our hours are completely upside down," Tomeoni told ABCNews.com. "She's night side, I work regular hours. "Me and him alone, progressively, I got obsessed with getting him toys," he said. Tomeoni knew his wife would come home stressed after a long day at work. However, the house would be so clean that his stories about all their elaborate playtime in the living room were hard to believe. The video not only resonated with his wife, but thousands of people on the Internet, also.

Danish historian finds unknown Andersen fairy tale COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A Danish historian says he has discovered what he believes is a previously unknown fairy tale written by Hans Christian Andersen. Retired historian Esben Brage said Thursday he found the six-page text in early October while searching in the National Archives through boxes that had belonged to wealthy families from Andersen's home-town of Odense in central Denmark. "I was ecstatic. The handwritten tale, entitled "Tallow Candle," and dedicated to a vicar's widow named Bunkeflod who had lived across from Andersen's home, had been left seemingly untouched at the bottom of one of the boxes. The short story tells the tale of how a tallow candle seeks help from a tinder box to be able to ignite itself. A senior curator at the Hans Christian Andersen Museum in Odense said the work is likely one of the author's earliest, written seven years before his official debut in 1830. "I often get calls about stuff thought to have been off Andersen's hand. Hans Christian Andersen

جوجل تتهم مايكروسوفت بإفشاء أسرار منتجاتها دبي - وكالات اتهم عملاق البحث جوجل شركة "مايكروسوفت" بتسريب "شيفرة في غاية السرية" تتعلق بنظام تشغيل "آندرويد" ذي المصدر المفتوح. وقد تقدم محرك البحث الشهير بطلب إلى أحد القضاة الفيدراليين بلجنة التجارة الدولية في الولايات المتحدة لفرض عقوبات على "مايكروسوفت"، بعد أن كشفت الأخيرة عن تفاصيل تتعلق بشيفرة المصدر الخاصة بشركة "جوجل" أمام أحد الشهود الخبراء في قضية براءات الاختراع القائمة ما بين "مايكروسوفت" و"موترولا". وكان الشاهد وبحسب "البوابة العربية للتقنية" – ويدعى روبرت ستيفنسون - قد عمل مستشاراً لدى كل من "إتش بي" و"مايكروسوفت"، واللتان تعدهما "جوجل" منافسين مباشرين. في حين أن "مايكروسوفت" تقاضي "موترولا" لاعتقادها بأن الهواتف الذكية التي تقدمها الشركة بالاعتماد على أنظمة تشغيل "آندرويد" تتعدى على براءات اختراعاتها. إلا أن مايكروسوفت دافعت بالقول إن الاستشارة لم تتعدى حوارين أو ثلاثة مع الشاهد، وكانت تتناول قضية تتعلق بتقنية الطباعة. ومن المفترض أن تتقدم "مايكروسوفت" برد رسمي على هذه الاتهامات قبل 15 أغسطس/آب الجاري.
