An ingenious Web browser for iPad, iSwifter ($4.99) takes sites with rich Flash content, including many social media sites like Facebook, and turns them into an animation that can play on the Flash-less iPad. Billed mostly for playing games, the browser works for any Web site. The controls for viewing full-screen and refreshing, the back button, and bookmarks all mimic what you'll find in the Safari browser that comes with the iPad. Alas, the iSwifter browser uses a proxy server to convert content, so it doesn't work with Hulu.

Paul speaks during a town hall in Newton, IA Dec. 28 (Charlie Riedel/AP)
NEWTON, Iowa--Ron Paul narrowly leads the RealClearPolitics average of the most recent polls of Republican voters in Iowa, with Mitt Romney close behind. And he has?attracted a loyal and active following that has helped him win straw polls across the country (and?a close second place in the Aug. 13, 2011, Iowa straw poll) as well as raise formidable amounts of money.
But it remains unclear if his supporters will come out in force for the caucuses on Tuesday.
"I think so--if I get information, yeah, I'll be there," Lorraine DeNardis, a Paul supporter, told Yahoo News when asked after a town-hall meeting with the candidate?if she plans participate in the Jan. 3 caucuses.
Addressing a crowd of around 150 attendees Wednesday at the town hall, Paul spoke exactly as he always has: hammering home his disdain for big government, his commitment to lower spending and his respect for the Constitution.
Though he did note that some things appear to be a little bit different these days.
"This looks like there are more cameras than there used to be," Paul said, noting the dozen TV cameramen on a riser at the back of the meeting room--in addition to the reporters and print photographers positioned around his podium. "I've been talking about freedom for a long time-- that's what motivated me to get into politics-- and for many years the crowds were very small, little interest. And it's steadily grown."
Paul received loud applause from the crowd for the cornerstones of his presidential platform, including eliminating the Department of Education and cutting $1 trillion from the federal budget in his first year in office.
"People say, That means everybody has to suffer,"?Paul said of the reaction to his spending-slashing plans. "Well, not necessarily. The people who got bailed out, they might have to suffer, but they should suffer. They should go bankrupt, not us."
"Before I thought he was just too radical but I rethought it and it makes sense,"? David Rethmeier of Rock Creek, Iowa, told Yahoo News, adding that he first became a Paul supporter this cycle and considers himself an independent.
"I think he has awakened a lot of people like me who were never really interested in politics," Jeff Neelson of Iowa City, Iowa, told Yahoo News.
As part of its effort to get out the vote next week, Paul's campaign announced on Tuesday that it plans to host 52 caucus training sessions around the state leading up to the caucuses
Lorraine DeNardis, who lives in Bondurant, Iowa, said that the Paul campaign's email on Tuesday helped her to identify a local meeting in Clive that she may attend.
Paul did not respond to any inquiries from reporters as he entered and exited Wednesday's town hall meeting. He has been fending off a new spate of news stories about newsletters written under his name in the 1980s and 1990s that contained racist language. ?Paul says he did not write the newsletters and that he rejects the controversial comments.

It doesn't matter if you're a fallen Jedi, a budding acolyte of the Dark Side, or a fresh faced former Padawan, sent to Telos for failure of your Jedi training, Master Veran's Academy is a sanctuary from the Light and a place to plan your vengeance against those who have wronged you. Even you practiced and established Sith Warriors and Inquisitors will find all the manner of diversions at the Academy, so long as you keep in mind who is Master there.
Don't be fooled, this isn't some thinly veiled star-wars-high-school role play, but rather a place for all the manner of characters to get in on the action at the start of the Galactic Cold War, between the Republic, and the soon to be discovered Sith Empire.
So, which side will you choose and where do your loyalties lie? Only time and the Force will tell.

FRIDAY, Dec. 23 (HealthDay News) -- Women with breast cancer undergo many more imaging tests between diagnosis and surgery than they did in the early 1990s, a new study finds.
The tests -- breast ultrasounds, MRIs and mammograms -- help doctors determine the best course of treatment, but add to the hassles and expense of care, the study says.
"The burden to the patient is increasing substantially," said study leader Dr. Richard Bleicher, an associate professor of surgical oncology at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia. For older patients, especially, coordination of care is needed, he said.
Bleicher, a breast surgeon, evaluated data on more than 67,000 women in the United States diagnosed with breast cancer from 1992 to 2005. His intent was to clock the time and inconvenience involved in multiple imaging appointments.
In 1992, he found that 1 in 20, or under 5 percent of patients, had imaging twice or more during the preoperative period of about 37 days. By 2005, 1 in 5 patients, or nearly 20 percent, had two or more imaging sessions.
"Patients are having a lot more imaging done overall," he said. "I can't tell you whether the imaging was appropriate or not appropriate."
The percentage of patients who had more than one type of imaging on a given day increased more than six-fold, from about 4 percent in 1992 to just over 27 percent in 2005, the study found.
A subgroup of 20 patients had five or more mammogram visits during the pre-op period, he found.
For the study, the researchers used Medicare claims linked to the U.S. National Cancer Institute's Surveillance Epidemiology End Results data for women with breast cancer. They zeroed in on about 67,750 women over age 65 who had invasive cancer that hadn't spread and who were scheduled for surgery.
Bleicher presented the findings earlier this month at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. He urged his colleagues to consider ways of streamlining the testing, with an eye to improving treatment without raising costs.
The increase in imaging tests does not surprise Dr. Carol Lee, head of the communications committee for the American College of Radiology Breast Imaging Commission.
"Practices have changed," she said. "Standards of care have changed." Since 1992, imaging technology has advanced greatly, she said, noting there are more, and better, options.
One limitation of the study, she said, is that the outcomes are not addressed. "This is not telling the whole story," she said. "What gets lost in the numbers is, what are the possible benefits of this additional imaging?"
"Yes, we are doing more tests," she said. "But we are not doing tests for the sake of doing tests."
Some states have laws that address self-referral, said Shawn Farley, spokesperson for the American College of Radiology. The specifics of the laws vary.
Lee agreed with Bleicher that doctors should strive for better coordination of imaging tests.
If your doctor orders imaging, Bleicher recommends asking why it's needed. You might also ask if the doctor expects more imaging will be needed and if so, whether it's possible to schedule tests together, he said.
The study was supported by the U.S. Public Health Service, the American Cancer Society, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and private donors.
Research presented at meetings should be considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed medical journal.

LONDON (AP) ? Queen Elizabeth II and her children visited her husband, Prince Philip, in hospital Saturday, where he is recovering from heart surgery.
Philip, 90, was taken to the hospital from the queen's Sandringham estate in Norfolk late Friday after experiencing chest pains. He had a coronary stent put in after tests found a blocked artery was to blame, though the palace has refused to say if he suffered a heart attack.
Elizabeth was flown in by helicopter and arrived at Papworth Hospital, some 70 miles (113 kilometers) from London, shortly after 11 a.m. with three of her children ? Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew. The palace said Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, arrived at the hospital 45 minutes later by car and that no further family visits are expected.
Philip is "in good spirits but he is eager to leave," Buckingham Palace said. After spending 45 minutes with Philip, the royals traveled back to Sandringham by helicopter, it added.
Doctors said Philip could have suffered a heart attack, but without more information it was impossible to know for sure.
Coronary stenting is standard procedure both to fend off a heart attack or save a patient already in the midst of one, said Dr. Allan Schwartz, chief of cardiology at New York-Presbyterian, Columbia University Medical Center.
Philip has been known to enjoy good health throughout his life and rarely misses royal engagements. Upon his 90th birthday in June, he announced plans to cut back his official duties.
Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron offered his support to Philip.
"The Prime Minister has been kept informed of the situation and wishes the Duke of Edinburgh a very speedy recovery," Cameron's office said.
Doctors say that some patients can leave the hospital a day after a similar medical procedure, but the palace said it does not know when Philip will be released. It said the prince remains "under observation" and that he is having a "short stay" in the hospital.
It is unclear if Philip will be able to join the royal family for the traditional Christmas celebrations at Sandringham, the queen's sprawling rural estate in Norfolk where the royal family gathers for the festivities. Philip had been there since Monday.
The palace said Elizabeth and the royal family will attend church as usual on Sunday.
Another key part of the royal family's Christmas celebrations is the queen's annual message to the nation, which this year will focus on family and community.
The queen has made a prerecorded Christmas broadcast on radio since 1952 and on television since 1957. She writes the speeches herself, and the broadcasts mark the rare occasion on which the queen voices her own opinion without government consultation.
