Japanese vehicle delivers new hardware for NASA?s robotic refueling mission
[unable to retrieve full-text content]It may be called the Robotic Refueling Mission (RRM), but NASA's RRM was built to demonstrate much more than the clever ways space robots can fill up satellites. With the launch of new hardware to the International Space Station on Aug. 3, RRM will be outfitted to practice a new set of satellite-servicing activities.

Syrian Electronic Army Hits Thomson Reuters Twitter Feed
The Thomson Reuters Twitter account is the latest target of hackers from the Syrian Electronic Army (SEA).
Last night, the @ThomsonReuters Twitter account was infiltrated and the SEA tweeted Syria-related tweets with photos and pro-Syria hashtags.
The account appears to have returned to normal this morning, with no mention of the hack. But the SEA took responsibility on its website.
"The Syrian Electronic Army hacked today the official account of Thomson Reuters and published some truth about what is really hapenning [sic] in Syria. The account was suspended after less than hour," the SEA wrote.
The Syrian Electronic Army emerged in September. The hackers reportedly started attacking Western websites in retaliation for Innocence of Muslims, an anti-Islamic video that resulted in violent demonstrations in the Middle East. They have since been targeting news sites they believe are reporting news hostile to the Syrian government, including the Financial Times, The Guardian, the BBC, and even The Onion.
This is not the first time Reuters has been targeted over its Syria coverage. A year ago, Reuters briefly shuttered its @ReutersTech Twitter feed after it was used to send fake tweets regarding Syrian rebels.
Shortly thereafter, the Reuters website was hacked and a false story was posted, which said Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal had died.
Last week, the SEA also went after messaging apps Tango and Viber, which the group claims are used to spy on its users. "The SEA downloaded some of the app databases And after we gain access to some systems of that app, it was clear for us that the purpose of this app is spying and tracking of its users," the SEA said about Viber.
Last month, Saudi Arabia blocked Viber because, according to regulators, it is difficult to monitor and takes revenue away from large telecom firms.

Time Warner Cable raises Internet modem fees for customers
(Reuters) - Time Warner Cable said on Monday it has started notifying customers that it is raising the monthly fees to rent modems from the cable company.
Subscribers on Time Warner's Cable's most popular Internet plan began paying $3.95 a month last November to lease a modem. The fee will rise to $5.99 a month starting in the next billing cycle for customers.
The higher rate could generate an additional $150 million in revenue this year, according to ISI analyst Vijay Jayant. Time Warner Cable has roughly 12 million customers.
A Time Warner Cable spokesman said the fee was raised because of the "cost associated with providing the modem." Customers who buy higher-end packages will not be affected by the change.
Time Warner Cable said customers can opt out by purchasing a modem that is compatible with the Time Warner system, it and provided a list of approved equipment.
Other cable companies such as No. 1 U.S. operator Comcast and Cox charge modem fees between $7 and $8 per month, Jayant said.

Computer scientists develop 'mathematical jigsaw puzzles' to encrypt software
[unable to retrieve full-text content]Computer science experts have designed a system to encrypt software so that it only allows someone to use a program as intended while preventing any deciphering of the code behind it. This is known in computer science as "software obfuscation," and it is the first time it has been accomplished.

Google launches Views, a community site for contributing Android?s photo spheres to Google Maps
Google today announced the launch of a new community site called Views. The new service serves one main purpose: it?s a place to publicly share your photo spheres to Google Maps.
If you need a refresher, Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) and above comes with a photo sphere camera that lets you snap photos in any direction and piece them together into 360? panoramas that Google calls ?photo spheres.? You can then view these on your phone, share them to Google+, add them to Google Maps, and even post them on your own website.
Below is a screenshot of the new Google Maps for desktop with a photo sphere (notice the thumbnails at the bottom that show all the photo coverage, with each image placed on the map):
To add your own, you?ll need to sign into the Views site with your Google+ profile. Next, click the blue camera button on the top right of the page and import your existing photo spheres from your Google+ photos, or tap ?Share? in Android?s Gallery app and select Google Maps.
On Views, you get your own page which shows all your photo spheres and lets you add descriptions about the place you?ve visited. You can also explore your uploads on a map.
Evan Rapoport, Product Manager of Google Maps & Photo Sphere, has shared his own Views page and corresponding map as an example:
Understandably, there isn?t that much content on Views yet, so Google has added the Street View Gallery to compensate: it features panoramas of the company?s most popular Street View collections. You can access it on any Views page by hitting the ?Explore? button at the top.
It?s not clear why Google chose to launch Views now, as opposed to when photo spheres first came out. A pessimist would say the company expected a bigger response but didn?t get it, so Views is an attempt to boost the feature?s popularity, while an optimist would argue Views was planned to launch when more Android users could take advantage of it. Either way, Views is a clever way to crowdsource more content onto Google Maps.
