AOC?s latest USB monitor offers faster performance in a thinner package

When I downsized from a 27″ iMac to a 13″ Macbook Air for my main computer, It felt liberating being able to carry around my computer anywhere I needed to go. But giving up a huge display for one much smaller did take some adjustment. When I’m couch surfing, I don’t really mind the smaller […]

Did Raven-Symone out herself with a Tweet?

Celebs

7 hours ago

Has former "Cosby Show" and "That's So Raven" star Raven-Symone outed herself with a single Tweet? Here's the comment in question, which was posted on Friday:

Last year, the National Enquirer wrote a story indicating she was living with former "America's Top Model" contestant AzMarie Livingston. At the time, she tweeted, "My sexual orientation is mine, and the person I'm dating to know. I'm not one for a public display of my life."

In a statement to E! News after her most recent Tweet, however, she said, "I am very happy that gay marriage is opening up around the country and is being accepted. I was excited to hear today that more states legalized gay marriage. I, however am not currently getting married, but it is great to know I can now, should I wish to."

The actress, who got her start in 1989 at age 3 on "The Cosby Show" as Olivia Kendall, has worked steadily since. She debuted on Broadway in 2012 as the lead in "Sister Act."

Her over 482,000 followers on Twitter have largely been supportive; one asked, "Can I have your spot in the Cheetah Girls? Disney might not like you anymore."

Egyptian Brotherhood leaders to face trial for inciting murder

CAIRO (Reuters) - The leader of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and his deputy will face trial in three weeks' time for crimes including incitement to murder during protests in the days before the overthrow of President Mohamed Mursi, a Cairo court announced on Sunday.

The move showed the army-backed interim government was pushing ahead with a crackdown against the Muslim Brotherhood, to which Mursi belongs, while international envoys try to help resolve the political crisis brought on by his removal by the army on July 3.

State news agency MENA quoted the court as saying it would start the trial of Mohamed Badie and his deputy Khairat el-Shater on August 25.

The general prosecutor also ordered the pre-trial detention for 15 days of Rifaa El-Tahtawy, Mursi's former chief-of-staff, and his deputy, who are accused of inciting the detention, torture and interrogation of protesters in 2012, MENA reported.

Mursi's allies view them as political detainees who should be included in talks to ease tensions.

Badie, who is not in custody, Shater and Rashad al-Bayoumi, another Brotherhood leader, are due to be tried alongside three others accused of killing at least two men in violence around the group's Cairo headquarters on June 30.

Arrested warrants were issued for Shater and Badie on July 4 on accusations of inciting the violence in which at least eight people were killed on a night of mass protests against Mursi.

Shater, a businessman seen as the Brotherhood's leading political strategist, had been the Islamist group's first choice candidate to run in last year's presidential election. But he was disqualified due to past convictions, forcing Mursi to take his place.

Bayoumi is being held in Torah prison on the outskirts of Cairo, the same place where former strongman Hosni Mubarak, who was toppled by a popular uprising in February 2011, and his sons Alaa and Gamal are detained.

Mursi, who has also been accused of murder and other crimes, is detained at an undisclosed location.

Actress Lindsay Lohan will guest host the Aug. 5 episode of "Chelsea Lately."

Look out, Chelsea Handler! Lindsay Lohan might be coming for your job.

A vibrant-looking Lohan, fresh off a 90-day court-ordered stint in rehab, filled in for Handler as host of "Chelsea Lately" on Thursday. Although the episode isn't scheduled to air until Aug. 5, from the sneak peek clips provided, it looks like LiLo took the opportunity to poke fun at herself ? and fellow actress Kristen Stewart ? during her guest spot.

During the episode's round-table discussion, Lohan garnered laughs from the crowd and other hosts when, while?reporting on a story?that One Direction member Harry Styles is possibly bisexual and dating a DJ named Nick, she deadpanned, "I've been there!" (Lohan dated DJ Samantha Ronson in 2008.)?

Lohan also used the opportunity to take a jab at Stewart, who recently made headlines for cursing out a group of paparazzi photographers.?

"I'm just excited that Kristen Stewart, you know, finally showed some emotion,"?Lohan said?of the famously indifferent "Twilight" actress.

Her joke garnered a roar of laughter from the audience, and even prompted comedian Fortune Feimster, who was part of the round table, to suggest that her comment may start an alley fight between the troubled actress and the "Twilight" star.

"No, I love her. I'm a Kristen Stewart fan," Lohan insisted before continuing to poke fun at the actress' 2012 cheating scandal with "Snow White" director Rupert Sanders.

Indonesia promises not to snoop on foreign leaders: media

JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia pledged not to eavesdrop on foreign leaders when it hosts a major summit later this year despite irritation over reports that its own leader was spied on when he was overseas.

Classified documents leaked last month by whistleblower Edward Snowden showed British intelligence services had used "groundbreaking intelligence capabilities" to monitor the communications of visiting world leaders at the G-20 summit in 2009, according to The Guardian daily. Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono attended that gathering.

The Sydney Morning Herald reported last week that the Australian government was among those which made use of the British intelligence on Yudhoyono and other Asian leaders.

"We must give a guarantee that such practices will not happen here in Indonesia, especially during the (upcoming) APEC summit in Bali," Marciano Norman, head of the state intelligence agency, was quoted as saying on Tuesday by the Jakarta Post daily.

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) has 21 members including the United States, China and Russia. Britain is not a member.

"Indonesia has never had a practice of spying on visiting foreign delegates. If there's any truth to the news reports, then what the UK did is for sure completely unethical," Teuku Faizasyah, presidential spokesperson for foreign affairs, told Reuters.

"You're hosting foreign dignitaries and there should be some respect for their privacy."
