Today's Story Highlights

Breaking Down the Crazy Apple-Buying-Beats Riff
The hottest -- and possibly craziest -- tech rumor of the week is, hands
down, that Apple is in negotiations to acquire Beats Electronics for
$3.2 billion. Based on a single report, the story has been fanned into a
raging inferno faster than a wildfire on a hot August day.
Unfortunately, the only cited source for the rumor is "people familiar
with the deal."

Adobe Voice Can Make You a Better Storyteller
If you have a story to tell -- even a dull one -- Adobe Voice can
improve your presentation. The free app can't make your story more
compelling, but it can give you a better shot at getting it across.
Adobe Voice is available for the iPad 2 and above running iOS 7. To
kickstart your use of Voice, Adobe offers sample slideshows and a
tutorial that provides the essentials for creating a short video.

UK ISPs Agree to Antipiracy Deal
As part of a deal with entertainment industry bodies, large UK Internet
service providers will send letters to customers suspected of partaking
in illegal downloads. The deal was hashed out by the BPI, which
represents the British music industry, and the Motion Picture
Association, which represents film. The final deal is lacking some key
provisions for which the BPI and MPA had lobbied.

AV Linux Dazzles Both Eyes and Ears
AV Linux can turn a new or old PC, or an Intel-powered Mac box, into a
workstation for audio/graphics/video enthusiasts. AV Linux is a
specialty distro much in the style of the CAELinux distro for engineers
and scientists and the Musix distro for audio and music production that
I reviewed in recent weeks. AV Linux is not your typical Linux desktop.
It has a custom-designed Linux kernel.

Computer Sim Shows Cosmic Evolution Over Billions of Years
Scientists have created a computer simulation that not only models the
evolution of the universe down to the formation of individual galaxies,
but also matches astronomical observations. Unlike earlier efforts, the
simulation depicts ordinary matter in the form of hydrogen gas from the
start. The Illustris project models a cubic section of the universe
measuring 106.5 megaparsecs on each side.
