Canada?s Rogers officially outs its 2-year Share plans

We?ve told you that Rogers will unveil its new two-year plans on August 9th, and voila ? they?re here now. As expected, these look very similar to the plans announced by Bell and TELUS, asking for a base price including data for the first customer, with an additional $55 for each additional smartphone.

All plans come with unlimited Canada-wide calling, unlimited texting, basic call display, voicemail and video calling. For $85, users get 1GB of data; $105 gets you 3GB, $120 ? 6GB; and $140 comes with 10 gigs of data.

Users are free to add an already-owned tablet to their Rogers data pool for an additional $10 per month.

And there you have it folks. All major carriers in Canada are now offering 2-year share plans, making it a new reality in the country. No longer will you be asked to put your signature on a way-too-long three-year contact?

London Day 6: St. Paul?s Cathedral ? Part 2

After the guided tour, I went on to climb up to the Dome. Ben had done that before and he hated the narrow stairways up.

He dropped me at the first level and waited there while I climbed up by myself. It was a windy day.

View of the Millennium Bridge from St. Paul?s Cathedral with Tate Modern at the south end.

These were the narrow spiral stairways that Ben did not like.

View of the towers with clocks from the dome.

The towers were not in the original design but added in 1707 when Wren was 75 years old.

Another view from the dome with London Eye in sight.

Twitter could compete with traditional polls in future elections

The Verge writes, According to researchers at Indiana University, the link between tweets and votes in political elections could be stronger than once thought. In a study analyzing 537 million tweets from August 2010 ?the largest sample of tweets ever accessible to academic researchers ? the percentage of votes for Democratic and Republican candidates in the House of Representatives race correlated with the percentage of tweets that mentioned them. The interesting part is that it didn't seem to matter if the surveyed tweets were positive or negative. "We call this the 'all publicity is good publicity'?

California murder suspect killed in Idaho, teen girl rescued

James DiMaggio -- the California murder suspect who allegedly kidnapped 16-year-old Hannah Anderson -- was fatally shot Saturday by an FBI agent in the Idaho wilderness, authorities said.

SALMON, Idaho ?

?A?California?fugitive suspected of killing a longtime friend and her son and kidnapping her 16-year-old daughter was shot dead in the remote?Idaho?wilderness by an FBI agent on Saturday and the girl rescued safely, law enforcement officials said.

James?Lee?DiMaggio, 40, was slain by an FBI agent while authorities were attempting to take him into custody at Morehead Lake in the rugged?Frank Church?River of No Return Wildnerness,?San Diego County?Sheriff?William Gore?said at an afternoon news conference.

The girl, Hannah Anderson, was found with?DiMaggio?at the lake, about 90 miles northeast of?Boise, and rescued by authorities apparently in good health. She was taken by helicopter to an?Idaho hospital?and will be reunited with her father as early as Sunday.

"Hannah is safe and that's the best outcome we were hoping for, our top priority," Andrea Dearden, spokeswoman for the?Ada County Sheriff's Department, told reporters at a separate news briefing inCascade,?Idaho, just outside the wilderness park.

Mary Rook, spokeswoman for the FBI's Salt Lake City office, said?DiMaggio?and the teen were spotted by agents with a special hostage rescue team at a campsite near the lake at about 7:20 p.m. EDT.

"Agents moved in to rescue Hannah and the suspect is deceased," she said.

Rook declined to provide more details of what she called a "very challenging situation" pending an investigation of the incident by an FBI shooting review team. It was not immediately clear if?DiMaggio?fired on the agents but there were no reports of law enforcement officers injured in the operation.

"Now that Hannah is safe and being evaluated in a medical facility, FBI victim specialists are working with Hannah and her family to get them the resources they need as they enter this next challenging phase of this incident," she said.

MULTI-STATE MANHUNT

More than 150 law enforcement officers on foot and on horseback had descended on the wilderness after a group of people returning from a horseback ride in the back country told police that they had spotted?DiMaggio?with the girl backpacking there on Wednesday.

One of the riders told police he exchanged casual pleasantries with the man and his young companion and saw no indication that she was in distress or being held against their will. He said that she andDiMaggio?had behaved oddly but gave no cause for alarm.

Police searched the trailhead for clues and found?DiMaggio's car, stripped of its license plates and covered with brush. Police feared the car could be rigged with explosives but a bomb squad found none on Friday.

The telecommunications technician had been the subject of a massive, multi-state manhunt since the killing of?Christina Anderson, 44, and 8-year-old?Ethan?and the abduction of Hannah, all of whom were last seen last Saturday.

The following day?DiMaggio?is suspected of having set his home on fire in the?San Diego?area community of Boulevard, triggering a multi-state search and child abduction?Amber Alerts.

The?San Diego County Sheriff's office?confirmed on Friday that the remains of a second body found at the house were?Ethan's. Police declined to say how?Christina Anderson?or her son were killed.

Authorities issued child-abduction alerts across the U.S. West and notified authorities in?Canada?andMexico?to watch for the wanted man and either of the Anderson children.

Police say?DiMaggio?bought camping equipment and other gear in the weeks leading up to his flight, suggesting that he had planned to hide out in the 2.3 million-acre (930,780-hectare), largely roadlessFrank Church?long before he fled with the 16-year-old.

He has been described as a longtime friend of the Anderson family who was like an uncle to the children.

Authorities have said they have no evidence of a precipitating incident or circumstances that might have led to the killings and abduction.?
