The Obama administration is poised to appoint Howard Schmidt, a veteran IT security adviser in both business and government, as chief adviser to the president on cybersecurity policy.
President Obama announced the creation of the ‘cyber coordinator’ post back in May 2009, during a speech in which he said that “America's economic prosperity in the 21st century will depend on cybersecurity”.
The responsibilities of the role, he said, would include “orchestrating and integrating all cybersecurity policies for the government; working … to ensure agency budgets reflect those priorities; and, in the event of major cyber incident or attack, coordinating our response.”

16 August 2009 - Berlin, Germany – With a performance that defies the imagination, Usain Bolt set a new 100m World record of 9.58 on the second evening of the 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.
That was 0.11 seconds faster than the mark he set last year at the Beijing Olympics - the biggest improvement in the 100-meter record since electronic timing began in 1968.
"I don't run for world records,'' said Bolt, who crossed the line with a slight breeze at his back.
Yet those records always seem to find him.He thinks he can go even lower.
"I know I said 9.4,'' Bolt said, grinning. ``You never know. I'll just keep on working.''

Rawana was the grandson of Rishi Pulasthi and son of Sage Visravasmuni. He was the younger brother of Vaisrawana Kuvera (Kubera) and the elder brother of Vibishana, Kumbhakarna, Mahi Rawana, Hema, Khara, Dushana, Luxhman, and Suparnika. His mother was the Daitya princess Kaikesi. Her father, Sumalin, king of the Daityas, wished her to marry the most powerful being in the mortal world, so as to produce an exceptional heir. He rejected the kings of the world, as they were less powerful than him. Kaikesi searched among the sages, and finally chose Visravasmuni. However Visravasmuni warned her that as she approached him at an inappropriate time, their children would tend towards evil, but accepted her nevertheless. Rawana, his brothers and sisters were half Brahmin and half Rakus by birth.
