I am sure heads are rolling at Samsung. The Korean culture is such that this failure of the Galaxy Note 7 is going to have an devastating impact on Samsung and the mobile team for a very long time. I take a hard look at just what we are losing by this non-stop race to a thinner phone. Plus a whole stack of news that going to make you say hmmmm..

Long time supporters of the show. I hope you will follow my instructions given tonight on how you can support the show with your social skills.

As Dave Scott pulled in closer to the Lunar Module he noticed that the command module’s nose was out of line with the lander’s nose. Scott tried to use a service module thruster to turn left, but that jet was not operating. It turns out that someone had accidentally bumped a switch that turned off one set of Thrusters. The crew then flipped the correct switches, and the thruster started working, and at T+3 hours 2 minutes the command module probe nestled into the lunar Module drogue, where it was captured and held by the 12 latches. The first docking of the Lunar Module in space was achieved. As a side note, switch guards were installed on all future Apollo missions to prevent accidentally flipping a switch.

In this podcast (http://www.radiofreehpc.com/audio/RF-HPC_Episodes/Episode118/RFHPC118AugmentedRealitySecurity.mp3), the Radio Free HPC (http://radiofreehpc.com/) team looks at the issue of security for Augmented Reality and IoT. Now that every device in our lives is getting connected to the Internet, how will be prevented from attackers? Henry points out that even our medical devices are not safe (http://www.popsci.com/hackers-could-soon-hold-your-life-ransom-by-hijacking-your-medical-devices) any more.After that, we wrap things up with our Catch of the Week roundtable.Download the MP3 (http://www.radiofreehpc.com/audio/RF-HPC_Episodes/Episode118/RFHPC118AugmentedRealitySecurity.mp3) * Subscribe on iTunes (http://bit.ly/WgEZzd) * RSS Feed (http://bit.ly/QXKy3V)(http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RadioFreeHpcPodcast/~4/QAtaEJaFjaI)

Trying the dual live stream today on Facebook and YouTube! For the most part it was successful, with a small audio glitch at the beginning. Glitch only happened for a few seconds, so I left it in the video part. Audio was cut.

Panasonic created a device that can turn your body into a data transmission device. You can then send information to others, or to devices with a touch. We’ll look more at this. I also talk about week one of Bell’s Palsy – watch the First 48 Hours of Bell’s Palsy (http://www.geekazine.com/podcast/bells-palsy-and-my-first-48-hours-the-important-facts/)video I posted. Finally, the show will be off the next couple weeks as I am on travel. I show off the HP EliteBook x2:

For the 19th flight of American astronauts into space, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, representing the new administration of Richard Nixon, sat in the firing control room viewing area on March 3rd, 1969. He and other guests listened to the countdown of the Saturn-Apollo structure several kilometers away at the edge of the Florida beach.
