Google releases Glass kernel GPL source, lets developers have at it

While our own Tim Stevens is currently adapting to life through Google Glass, developers are going beyond scratching the surface to fiddle with what's inside. Hot on the heels of Jay Freeman rooting Glass, devs will be pleased to know Google's throwing 'em a bone to by publicly releasing the kernel source. Interestingly, Karthik's Geek Center spotted info within the file that points to Glass potentially being equipped for NFC support. If you're up for tinkering, you'll find the temporary location of the tar.zx file itself at the source link.

Algeria president in France for tests after minor stroke

By Lamine Chikhi

ALGIERS (Reuters) - Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika was transferred to France for medical tests on Saturday night after suffering a minor stroke, Algeria's official news agency said.

Bouteflika, who has ruled over the North African oil and gas producer for more than a decade, had an "transient ischemic attack" or mini-stroke on Saturday but his condition was not serious, the APS agency said, quoting the prime minister.

The 76-year-old is part of an older generation of leaders who have dominated politics in a country that supplies a fifth of Europe's gas imports and cooperates with the West in combating Islamist militancy.

He has rarely appeared in public in recent months, prompting speculation about his health.

"The president felt unwell and he has been hospitalized but his condition is not serious at all," Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal was quoted as saying by APS.

The president was then moved to France, on the recommendation of his doctors.

Bouteflika and other members of Algeria's elite have controlled Algeria since it won independence from France in a 1954-62 war.

In the early 1990s, the military-backed politicians overturned an election which Islamists were poised to win and then fought a conflict with them in which about 200,000 people were killed.

They also saw off the challenge of Arab Spring protests two years ago, with Bouteflika's government defusing unrest through pay rises and free loans for young people.

Bouteflika has served three terms as president of the OPEC member and is thought unlikely to seek a fourth at an election due in 2014.

U.S. diplomatic cables leaked in 2011 said Bouteflika had been suffering from cancer but it was in remission.

More than 70 percent of Algerians are under 30. About 21 percent of young people are unemployed, the International Monetary Fund says, and many are impatient with the gerontocracy ruling a country where jobs, wages and housing are urgent concerns.

A transient ischemic attack is a temporary blockage in a blood vessel to the brain. it typically lasts for less than five minutes and "usually causes no permanent injury to the brain", the American Stroke Association said on its website.

The attacks should be seen as a warning as a third of people who experience them go on to have a full stroke within a year, the organization added.

Free April 30 event to be co-hosted by US Department of Education

An April 30 webinar will provide tips and tools to help college seniors and young workers learn to budget for today's needs and tomorrow's goals. "Start Early to Take Charge of Your Financial Future" will be held from 3-4 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, April 30. Participants will receive practical guidance and resources to assist with budgeting, managing debt from student loans and credit cards, saving and investing for short and long-term goals, making the most of employer-sponsored retirement and health benefits, and other aspects of personal finance management.

This webinar will help students take important steps in planning for financial security."

Nothing spurs the Senate like personal frustration

>>> on this vote, the yeas are 361, the nays are 41, zero recorded as present. two-thirds being in the affirmative, the rules are suspended, the bill is passed.

>> nothing gets lawmakers to act more quickly than when it gets personal. their own flight plans today and complaints from business travelers and lobbyists. this morning, house members overwhelmingly passed the senate fix to faa furloughs. caused by the sequester that they authorized it in the first place. 10% across the board. joining me, nbc capitol hill correspondent luke russert and nbc political producer, casey hunt both from the hill. luke you've watched this for years and so has casey . have you ever seen them act more quickly to get something done?

>> no. it is rather striking andrea, we often talk about here on capitol hill how painful it is for congress to move any substantial piece of legislation to get anything done. in this case when they were facing on average an hour, hour and a half delays to go back to their home districts, they moved pretty quickly. republicans so far taking credit for this. saying their #, boemflightdelays would push this forward. i think you're seeing here in washington , d.c., one criticism that goes against this congress, they're out for themselves, that politicians don't understand us, they don't care about the general public -- in this case you can sort of see a literal example. there's other cuts that have gone forward here with the sequester, cuts to head start that you've mentioned, other types of programs that maybe folks don't necessarily feel as directly as a flight delay. but what we saw here in washington just now, was that if you get in the way of a member of congress going home to their home district on time, they're going to speak up and move with lightning speed. if they get phone calls from small businesses, people that make donations that say, hey, we can't conduct business this way because we're missing our flights and they're delayed, they're going to move with speed. it's sort of a really interesting insight into how washington works.

>> and casey , i'm trying to figure out what this recess is all about. i know it's not memorial day yet. and it's, we're past easter and passover. so what's the deal with the week off?

>> it's just how they do things around here and they don't like to sacrifice that time. and it is really the reason why they moved so fast on this. they knew they were going to have to get out of town and it was an acknowledgement of how politically difficult this problem was becoming. parts of the reason they did it so quickly is this congress really doesn't act unless it's clear that not acting is the political liability. and that's exactly what happened here. if they had left town and we had spent another week and a half with hundreds of delayed flights, business travelers not getting where they needed to be and congress themselves getting home, you wouldn't have seen this kind of action. this was something that was really thrown together even at 5:00 yesterday afternoon. senate aides were telling me that they didn't have a deal. and by 9:00, they had passed it with very little mention, kind of under the radar.

Honda recalls nearly 46,000 Fit Sports

DETROIT (AP) ? Honda is recalling nearly 46,000 Fit Sport small cars in the U.S. and Canada to fix a problem with the electronic stability control system.

The recall affects cars from the 2012 and 2013 model years. Honda says the stability control system can let the car tilt too far before it applies the brakes to prevent a crash.

The defect was discovered in government testing of models with a particular type of tires. Honda says it doesn't know of any crashes or injuries from the problem.

Honda dealers will update the system's software free of charge. Owners will be notified starting in mid-May.
