In 2012, three garment workers were shot during a protest outside a Puma supplier factory in Cambodia. Despite their pain, the women have all returned to work. Their shooter remains free.



You can see/ sign a petition over at change.org.

Well, I put out crappy predictions for Google IO related to Android.  So here are my crappy predictions for Appengine:
  • PHP runtime support - 95% (I would not have guessed this 3 weeks ago)
  • Memory increase for at least python - 50%
  • Instance hour price cut - 40%
  • Premium memcache pricing - 10%
  • Python 3 support - 5%
 It should be obvious, but I really have no clue what Appengine related things could be announced.  If PHP is not there then the Appengine team deserves some applause for their slight of hand.  The rest is mostly my wishlist :)

I don't work at Google, so I can play to Google IO prediction game.  Here are my Android predictions:
  1. New android version -- 99%
  2. New Nexus 7 -- 90%
  3. Upgraded storage on the Nexus 4 -- 70%
  4. T-mobile LTE for Nexus 4 -- 40%
  5. AT&T LTE for Nexus 4 -- 30%
  6. Verizon Nexus 4 -- 15%
 So I think that means there is a (0.99 * 0.9 * 0.7 * 0.4 * 0.3 * 0.15) a 1% chance of all of these things happening.
