Detail and info About karish 3

Rakesh Roshan’s upcoming movie ‘Krrish 3’ has gone viral on internet with more than 6 million views in just 4 days. Such an overwhelming response from viewers is phenomenal. With that high viewership, ‘Krrish 3’ has become top 3 most viewed Bollywood trailers of all time.
‘Krrish 3’ is the third movie in the series of ‘Krrish movies’. The first one was ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ and second one was ‘Krrish’. It is a science fiction movie but also includes a lot of drama as well for a wide range of audience.  The movie stars Hrithik Raushan, Priyanka Chopra, Vivek Oberoi and Kangana Ranaut in the lead roles.
After 48 hours of release of the trailer, number of views was more than 4 million. Hrithik tweeted, “4 million views in 48 hrs. Is this really happening! WOW! What a way 2 empower us even more 2strive 4 even better wid all d resources v have!”
Vivek also tweeted, “Wow!!! Overwhelmed by all the Krrish3 love! My timeline’s going crazaaay lol! Thank u all so much…krrish3trailer was only the beginning! Wait n watch.”
Hrithik will bring triple treat for his audience as he will be seen in a triple role in the film. First as Rohit, who is Krrish’s father, second as Krishna, who is alter ego of Krrish and third as Krrish, who is the superhero. Hrithik Roshan confirmed his triple roles and said, “Krrish 3 involves me in three various roles definitely making it a challenging film.”
Priyanka Chopra also commented on the movie. She said, “‘Krrish 3’ has an audience for everyone, whether children, grandparents or families. ‘Krrish 3’ is now bigger and better.”
At the launch of the trailer of his movie, Rakesh Roshan said, “The first look decides the fate of the film. Many special effects have been used in the film. Given our budget, I feel we have done our best.”
He further wrote in his director’s note, “Western civilization has always had a very strong comic book culture. And it has been around so long that it has almost attained the status of mythology. It is no surprise then that every summer Hollywood sees a spate of superhero movies. In India, there isn’t source material like that to fall back on. So a superhero had to be created.
When ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ released in 2003, and the novel concept of Jadoo and his powers was so widely accepted, I knew that the stage was set for the birth of a very special hero. ‘Krrish’ was created as a result. No stone was left unturned in making sure that we gave our audiences a fantastic and state-of-the-art superhero. It worked. And ‘Krrish’ became a household name.
Now we had our own little mythology. Jadoo, Rohit, Krishna, Krrish. Set in a world of science fiction but very easy to relate to and connect with. In the last film, we created the character. Now it only made sense to move ahead with him. The challenge was to make it even bigger and better, yet with the strong emotional core which defines the cinema that I create. I took it on, and here we are, ready with ‘Krrish 3’.
We have enjoyed the process of bringing ‘Krrish’ back to you.
We hope that you enjoy his return too.”

The Person Most Shocked By Beyoncé’s Short Hair: Her Stylist!Beyonce short hairWhen Beyoncé posted the cut seen ’round the world on Instagram last night, there was one person more shocked than most: Her stylist Kim Kimble.

Kimble, the star of We TV’s L.A. Hair and Beyoncé’s longtime stylist, had drawn up a whole hair concept for a video they were shooting together this weekend — and now she has to go back to the drawing board.
“I had a whole plan laid out … I wanted to do a retro ‘50s type of hair. I feel like there’s going to be a meeting soon!” she tells PEOPLE, laughing. “It won’t be the long, wavy, typical hair, but I’m really excited to do something different. No matter what, she knows I’ll give her what she wants!”
Kimble says her reaction upon seeing the new do on Instagram Wednesday night was more than surprised — it was emotional. “I got a little teary eyed!” she confesses. “I’ve been working for her so long, she has this beautiful long hair and it’s hard to grow hair out. I feel like it’s my hair, I work so much with her. I feel a little emotional but excited for her too. Maybe I’ll cut my hair off now. Short hair, don’t care!”
RELATED PHOTOS: See more stunning star hair makeovers here!
And despite many commenters speculating Beyoncé just removed her weave or extensions, Kimble says, “She had great, thick long hair, which she cut off because she’s ready to make a statement. It’s a great [one] to make: I’m beautiful, sexy, bold and I can do it all. She’s the perfect model for that: A working woman, mom, superstar, businesswoman. She’s powerful in herself. “
So what does Kimble have in mind for this particular superstar at Saturday’s video shoot? She’s still working on the concept, but she’s excited to experiment with the star’s new “easy, effortless style” — whether she plays up her natural curls or goes for something more sleek — and she plans to experiment with grooming creams, waxes and her own shine serum.
But regardless of what anyone else thinks of the style (and we’re loving it!) “It had to be her decision,” Kimble says. “This was a big step, and it’s perfect timing.” For lots more of Kimble’s high-profile hair clients, watch L.A. Hair on We TV Thursdays at 9:00 EST and check out her website, then tell us: Would you ever go super short? What statement do you think B is trying to make?

PayPal tests mobile payments using your face for verification

A new trial in the U.K. lets people pay for items using the PayPal app, a mobile phone, and a photo to PayPal is rolling out a new trial for British consumers to see if they really can leave their wallets at home.
Recently kicking off in London borough Richmond upon Thames, the test includes 12 different merchants set up to accept PayPal payments, according to Sky News. Using the PayPal app for iOS, Android, or Windows Phone, potential customers can see nearby participating merchants highlighted on their mobile phones. They can then check in by clicking on the merchant's name and sliding a pin down the screen.
When purchasing an item, the customer's name and photo pop up on the store's payment system. An employee clicks on the photo to initiate the payment. The customer then gets a notice and receipt for the transaction on their phone.
Though only a dozen retailers are part of the test, PayPal expects that more than 2,000 merchants will be able to accept the PayPal payments by the end of 2013, Sky News added. And PayPal has grander ambitions beyond this year.
"This is another step on the journey towards a wallet-less high street, where customers will be able to leave their wallet or purse at home and pay using their phone or tablet," Rob Harper, PayPal head of retail services said in a statement reported by The Independent. We predict that by 2016 this will become a reality."prove their identity.

YouTube founders launch MixBit video stitching app

The app lets you edit and combine your clips with those of other people to create longer videos.
The folks behind YouTube are taking on Vine and Instagram with their own video stitching and sharing app.
MixBitKnown as MixBit, the free app debuted Thursday for iOS users via Apple's App store, while an Android version is due in the next several weeks, according to The New York Times. MixBit amps up the social aspect of shooting short video clips by letting you stitch together videos from other users to create lengthier productions.
As highlighted in the app's description, you can record, edit, and publish videos as short as one second or as long as an hour, all from your mobile device. Each individual clip you shoot can be as long as 16 seconds -- Instagram allows up to 15 seconds, while Vine restricts you to 6 seconds. And each video can contain as many as 256 clips.
You can edit your video by moving or deleting each clip from your device. Once your masterpiece is finished, you can then save it or publish it to the MixBit Web site, which is slated to ramp up sometime Thursday.
The social aspect comes into play by letting you freely borrow clips from other MixBit users to add to your own video. As such, you don't even need to shoot any footage on your end. You can simply remix the clips contributed by the MixBit community to create something new.
Served up by digital media company Avos Systems, MixBit is the brainchild of Chad Hurley and Steve Chen, co-founders of YouTube.
"The whole purpose of MixBit is to reuse the content within the system," Hurley told the Times. "I really want to focus on great stories that people can tell."

Nintendo: We still sell the Wii U at a loss

Nintendo: We still sell the Wii U at a loss

The company has been selling the Wii U at a loss for months, which might be why it won't cut the console's price
Despite increasing pressure to improve sales and boost its financial performance, Nintendo might prove unwilling to cut the price on its Wii U anytime soon.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz in an interview published Wednesday, a Nintendo representative confirmed that the company continues to sell its latest console at a loss. Nintendo didn't say exactly how much it's losing on each unit sold, but the company has been one of the few firms historically to profit on new console launches each generation. The Wii U, however, stands in stark contrast to that.
The console, which launched with two versions -- a Basic set for $300 and a Deluxe set for $350 -- has been collecting dust on store shelves over the last several months. Nintendo announced last week that it sold just 160,000 Wii U units worldwide during the previous quarter. Those poor sales figures prompted increasing calls for the company to cut the price on its Wii U.
Of course, that's nothing new for Nintendo. After the console posted a tough fourth quarter of 2012, Nintendo chief Satoru Iwata was asked about calls for a price cut in an interview with the Associated Press. At that time, he seemed convinced that price wasn't an issue, telling the AP that "we are already offering [the Wii U] at a good price."
Nintendo seems committed to that line of thinking. In its quarterly filing last week, the company blamed the Wii U's disappointing sales on "the release of few key first-party titles," as well as its poor job at "communicating the compelling nature of our hardware and software."
Still, a price cut might be just what Nintendo needs to boost the Wii U's popularity. The console will soon face off against the Microsoft Xbox One and Sony PlayStation 4. And although those consoles will be more expensive than the Wii U, they also promise better graphical performance and enhanced online services. In order for the Wii U to stand out, it might just need to distance itself on the pricing front.

Peter Capaldi is new 'Doctor Who' star

Peter Capaldi is new 'Doctor Who' star

Peter Capaldi has been named as the 12th Doctor, replacing Matt Smith in classic British sci-fi series.Doctor Who logoPeter Capaldi is the new Doctor. The 12th star of British TV show "Doctor Who" was announced live on the BBC Sunday, ready to replace Matt Smith as the time-travelling hero.
In "Doctor Who Live: The Next Doctor," a half-hour special looking back over the 50-year history of the classic sci-fi show, the actor playing the next Doctor was revealed live on television for the first time. Glaswegian actor Capaldi previously appeared in the episode "The Fires of Pompeii" and "Who" spin-off "Torchwood" but is best known for playing the fabulously sweary Malcolm Tucker in "The Thick of It" and "In The Loop." Previous forays into fantasy include Neil Gaiman's "Neverwhere" and "World War Z," in which he played of all things a W.H.O. Doctor.
Now let's hear from the man himself:55-year-old Capaldi is also an Oscar winner, for his 1995 short film "Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life", starring Richard E. Grant -- who has also played the Doctor, albeit in a charity spoof episode and a non-canon animation.
Current TARDIS incumbent Matt Smith hands over his sonic screwdriver to the 12th Doctor in a special episode on December 25. "Who" head honcho Stephen Moffatt will then guide the new Doctor and companion Clara, played by Jenna-Louise Coleman, into the eighth series of the show since "Doctor Who" was revived in 2005 with Christopher Eccleston in the lead role. Series 8 is expected to be broadcast in August 2014.
But before then, there's the small matter of a 50th birthday to celebrate. Alongside a drama about the creation of the show, Smith joins forces with previous Doctor David Tennant in a special 50th anniversary episode on 23 November. The special episode, also starring John Hurt, will be broadcast around the world exactly half a century after the show first put kids behind the sofa one momentous Saturday teatime in 1963.
The 50th anniversary will be shown in 3D and in cinemas too.
The 21st century Doctors follow earlier incarnations of the wandering Time Lord played in the show's original run by William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, and Paul McGann.
What do you think of the new Doctor? Time-travel to the comments to tell me your thoughts. Allons-y, Geronimo, and another as-yet-unknown catchphrase!

iPhone's camera is awful, says new Nokia ad

iPhone's camera is awful, says new Nokia ad

Nokia decides to mock the iPhone 5 ad in which Apple claims more people take pictures with iPhone than any other camera. Nokia is about quality, it says.One way of justifying that you haven't sold as many gadgets as another manufacturer is to explain that you're all about quality, not quantity.
This fine argument has been used by Apple more than once.
In a new ad, Nokia picks it up and slaps Apple across the chops with it.
For here is Nokia taking Apple's rather presumptive ad about its camera -- you know, the one that claims more people take pictures with an iPhone than with any other camera -- and slathering derision all over it.
The ad lures you into believing this might be that very Apple ad, or at least another in the series.
Then the voice of Helsinki sinks its teeth into Apple's hubris: "At Nokia, we prefer to build for quality, not quantity."
This is a noble intent, one not currently believed by my engineer friend George, who has now had to have his Lumia 920 replaced four times.Here, though, Nokia tries to show several examples of what it sees as the sheer prosaic ordinariness of Apple's camera offering.
Here, pictures on the iPhone 5 resemble snaps from an Instamatic compared with the dazzling joys achieved by the Lumia 925.
Colors sing, action is captured by a veritable symphony of options.
Why would anyone buy an iPhone 5 after this? Why wouldn't everyone want an 8.7-megapixel camera, Carl Zeiss lens, and dual LED flash at their side all the time?
Especially when it can also text Pia about the new extra-pink Hello Kitty slippers its owner craves.
Clearly, Nokia has embraced the concept of its phones being a wonderful camera with a keyboard attached.
It's an understandable strategy, one that has already been expressed in the new Lumia 1020 ad.
Given that most people seem to use their phones for everything but actually talking to people, it's as well to own something that is identifiably yours.
Now, all Nokia has to do is to make its image a touch more contemporary. It can't readily make an ad suggesting all iPhone users are geriatric gum-grinders.
Samsung's already taken that space.

Apple launches third-party charger trade-in program

The power adapter swap comes on the heels of a death in China believed to have been linked to a counterfeit Apple USB power charger.In the wake of an electrocution in China reportedly linked to a third-party power adapter connected to an iPhone, Apple has launched a trade-in program to replace users' third-party chargers with its own.
Apple's power adapter.Noting that some third-party or counterfeit power adapters may be poorly designed and result in safety issues, Apple announced Monday that itsUSB Power Adapter Takeback Program will swap non-Apple chargers with its own for $10.
"Customer safety is a top priority at Apple," Apple said in a statement. "That's why all of our products -- including USB power adapters for iPhone, iPad, and iPod -- undergo rigorous testing for safety and reliability and are designed to meet government safety standards around the world."
Scrutiny of third-party and counterfeit chargers intensified last month after a 23-year-old Chinese woman was reportedly killed while answering a call on her iPhone 5, which is believed to have been connected to a third-party USB charger. In a separate incident, a 30-year-old man in Beijing was shocked while plugging his iPhone 4 into a third-party charger, leaving him in a coma for several days.Beginning August 16, iPhone, iPad, or iPod users can drop third-party chargers at an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider and pay $10 for an Apple USB adapter, which usually retails for $19. Apple said users' old adapters will be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.
The deal runs through October 18 and is limited to one trade-in per device. To qualify, iPhone, iPad, or iPod users must bring their device with them at the time of trade-in to verify the serial number.

Microsoft cuts Surface Pro tablet prices by $100

Discounts come just days after the tech titan reveals that marketing the tablets has cost more than the revenue they have brought inMicrosoft reduced the price of its Surface Pro tablet this weekend by $100, a few days after revealing that it has spent more money on marketing the in-house tablet than it has generated in revenue.
The reductions, which were first reported by The Verge, cuts the price of Microsoft's 64GB and 128GB tablets to $799 and $899, respectively. The discounts come three weeks after Microsoftcut the price of its Surface RT tablets by 30 percent.Sales of Surface RT tablets, which debuted last October, have been seen as tepid. The tech titan revealed on Tuesday that it hasearned $853 million in revenue from its Surface tablets since their debut last fall. However, that is less than the $900 million the company had to pay for Surface RT inventory adjustments and also less than the $898 million Microsoft paid for Windows 8 and Surface advertising.
Even though Microsoft revealed its revenue from the Surface tablets, it did not release the number of units sold or specify the individual revenue from either the Surface RT or the Surface Pro. In March, Bloomberg reported that Microsoft likely sold around 1.5 million Surface tablets to date. Though 1 million of those sales were for the RT version, that number was about half of what Microsoft initially expected, according to Bloomberg.
In comparison, Apple reported last month that it sold 14.6 million iPads in the last quarter alone.

Obama vetoes Apple sales ban in U.S.

Obama vetoes Apple sales ban in U.S.

The Obama Administration has vetoed a decision by the U.S. International Trade Commission that would have led to a sales ban on older iPhones and iPads.In an unexpected move, the Obama administration vetoed an earlier ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission that would have resulted in a sales ban of some older Apple devices.
That ban, set to formally begin Monday, was decided in early June after Samsung accused Apple of infringing on its patents. The president had 60 days to review the decision and intervene, something that hadn't happened with an ITC decision since 1987.
In the veto, sent to ITC Chairman Irving Williamson by U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman, Froman said he disapproved of the earlier ruling, and had based that decision on the effect it had on "competitive conditions in the U.S. economy and the effect on U.S. consumers." In particular, Froman said the U.S. needed to pay close attention to standards essential patents and their licensing in order to promote "innovation and economic progress."
"We are disappointed that the U.S. Trade Representative has decided to set aside the exclusion order issued by the U.S. International Trade Commission," Samsung said following the decision. "The ITC's decision correctly recognized that Samsung has been negotiating in good faith and that Apple remains unwilling to take a license."
"We applaud the administration for standing up for innovation in this landmark case," Apple said in a statement. "Samsung was wrong to abuse the patent system in this way.Samsung's ITC victory centered on a wireless communications patent that covered technology found in some older iPhones and cellular-enabled iPads. That includes iPhones prior to the iPhone 4S made for AT&T's network, as well as 3G-enabled versions of the iPad 1 and 2. Some of those models were still being sold by Apple and its carrier partners.
Technology companies in recent years have increasingly turned to the ITC to settle their disputes. Companies can pursue an ITC case in parallel with civil lawsuits, and the threat of an embargo on products typically forces companies to settle more quickly.
Many legal experts believed next week's ban would go into effect without the Obama administration stepping in, citing a lack of any presidential interventions in ITC decisions for the past 26 years. That includes a legal spat between Broadcom and Qualcomm in 2007 that could have had a much broader impact on the mobile device landscape, and that was sorted out after the two companies settled.
Regardless of this latest decision, next week is still a big one for the two companies, which continue to duke it out. On Friday, August 9, the two companies head to court for oral arguments on permanent injunctions from the trial that wrapped up last August. The ITC also said it plans to release on the 9th its final ruling on whether Samsung infringed on Apple's patents. That's part of a separate case Apple filed in July 2011, and could result in a sales ban on some older Samsung phones and tablets.

Wi-Fi routers: More security risks than ever

The research team that discovered significant security holes in more than a dozen home Wi-Fi routers adds more devices to that list at Defcon 21.LAS VEGAS -- More major brand-name Wi-Fi router vulnerabilities continue to be discovered, and continue to go unpatched, a security researcher has revealed at Defcon 21.
Jake Holcomb, a security researcher at the Baltimore, Md.-based firm Independent Security Evaluators and the lead researcher into Wi-Fi router vulnerabilities, said that problem is worse than when ISE released its original findings in April.
The latest study continues to show that the small office and home office Wi-Fi routers are "very vulnerable to attack," Holcomb said.They're not a means to protect your network and your digital assets," he cautioned.
Holcomb is a relatively young researcher, in his mid-20s, who turned his lifelong interest in computer security into a professional career only in the past year. Previously, he was doing network security for a school district in Ohio.
The new report details 56 new Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, or CVEs, that Holcomb and the other ISE researchers have found in popular routers. These include the Asus RT-AC66U, D-Link DIR-865L, and TrendNet TEW-812DRU, for which Holcomb plans on demonstrating vulnerabilities at Defcon on Saturday and Sunday.
Requests for comment from the affected vendors were not immediately returned. CNET will update this story when we hear from them.
You might not think that the router security holes could affect you, or would be easy to exploit, but Holcomb explained that because the vulnerabilities appear to affect most routers, and are hard to fix, these could put nearly every person who connects to a vulnerable router at risk.
The scenario he explained from the noisy hallways of the Rio Convention Center here was a common one. Small-business and home Wi-Fi router administration often employs weak passwords, or static passwords that are the same across multiple stores, like a Starbucks.

All an attacker has to do is go to his favorite Seattle-based coffee joint, buy a venti latte and a low-fat pumpkin ginger muffin, and get the establishment's Wi-Fi password. Then, equipped with access to the Wi-Fi network, all that attacker would have to do is use one of the exploits that ISE has uncovered. The router would be compromised, including all the Web traffic flowing through it.
Holcomb compared the problem of fixing routers to traditional PCs. "In most cases, automatic updates are enabled for Windows and Mac," he said. But, he added, "even if a router manufacturer were to implement a similar feature, most people don't log into their routers."
Basically, because people have been trained to think of the router as a set-it-and-forget-it device, and one without security flaws, it's nearly impossible to get them to update router firmware.
The TrendNet TEW-812DRU, another of the routers that has been discovered to have vulnerabilities.

The fix won't be an easy one, at least not logistically. "I think the solution is for routers to automatically update, and give users the ability to opt out of it," Holcomb said. But given the reluctance of some major router manufacturers to address the problems, these exploits could exist unpatched in the wild for years to come.
Holcomb said that while TP-Link fixed all the vulnerabilities that ISE reported to it, D-Link has never responded. And Linksys, he said, chose not to repair many of the vulnerabilities reported to it.
In the case of the Linksys EA-6500, someone can place their own code in the router's configuration file and overwrite it. "It's an attack that relies heavily on social engineering," said Holcomb, "but it's an example of the vendors not resolving a vulnerability. Why [not], I don't know."
Under the guidelines of responsible disclosure, Holcomb says that ISE notified all router manufacturers of the vulnerabilities discovered before going public with them, giving them a chance to fix them.

Holcomb will be demonstrating how to take control of three different routers using a different vulnerability in each.
For the aforementioned Asus router, he plans to demonstrate a buffer overflow exploit; for the D-Link he plans to use Web-based and SIM link directory traversal exploits; and he will attack the TrendNet router using a cross-site scripting forgery and command injection exploit.
"All three give us a root shell," he said, meaning access to the router's lowest levels of code.
Holcomb will be speaking at Defcon's Wall of Sheep Speaker Workshop on Saturday from 3 to 4 p.m. PT, and at the conference's Wireless Village on Sunday.
