20 Beautiful Video Motion Pieces
A show reel is the motion picture equivalent of an artist’s portfolio. It is typically used as a tool to promote an artist’s skill, talent and experience in a selected field, such as acting, directing, cinematography, editing, special effects, animation, video games or another graphic-related field. It is conventional in the film industry to have one, and it is the main tool by which an artist promotes her or his own work.

BND infiltrierte Tausende Computer im Ausland
Der Bundesnachrichtendienst hat offenbar in großem Umfang die Online-Durchsuchung zur Spionage angewandt und dadurch geheime Daten abgefangen. Nach SPIEGEL-Informationen wurden in den vergangenen Jahren 2500 Mal Computer im Ausland infiltriert.
Hackerangriffe im Auftrag der Bundesregierung sind kein Einzelfall. Nach Informationen des SPIEGEL hat der Geheimdienst BND in den vergangenen Jahren in mindestens 2500 Fällen PCs im Ausland durchsucht. Dabei seien zum Teil Festplatteninhalte heimlich kopiert und nach Pullach übermittelt worden. In anderen Operationen wurden BND-internen Informationen zufolge sogenannte Keylogger installiert, mit denen Tastatureingaben mitverfolgt und dadurch Passwörter für E-Mailfächer gewonnen werden können.

Nestle Sues Company That Came Up A Product 15 Years Before Nestle Patented It...
Today's story of patent insanity comes to us courtesy of Wysong, a small natural pet foods company that came up with a method to put probiotics in foods in the early 80s. The company used the technique to sell pet food biscuits that supposedly have certain health benefits. As its products became more popular, the company saw copycats come into the market, but figured it helped everyone (including the pets), and there was nothing wrong with that. Then... fifteen years later, Nestle, the owner of Purina, happened to patent the very same process and, a few years later, sued Wysong, demanding royalties all the way back to when it got its patent.

Monsanto's Many Attempts to Destroy All Seeds but Their Own
Some say that if farmers don’t want problems from Monsanto, they simply shouldn’t buy Monsanto’s GMO seeds. But it isn’t quite that simple. Monsanto contaminates the fields, trespasses onto the land taking samples, and then sues, saying they own the crop.
