Whenever will females discover not to ever believe in someone with a cam? With luck, never! The following week's GFRevenge upgrade features a seemingly naive young woman known as Tessa, along with let those nerdy glasses which school gal appearance fool you. When it comes down to it, Tessa is actually a untamed female at heart. Just watch as a bit of persuasiveness alters the girl out of self conscious as well as self aware to mischievous & sexy.
Witness Alot More GFs Who Never Suspect a Thing on GFRevenge
Based on his submission not, these two had a fairly cordial separation. So we are not able to think about the reason why he'd possibly desire to put her to shame simply by delivering us that online video, however I am grateful he did.

AdomdConnection.ConnectionString Property
Updated: March 10, 2016
Gets or sets the string that the AdomdConnection uses to open an analytical data source.
Assembly: Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient (in Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.dll)
Property ValueType: System.String
A string that contains the connection string that is used by the AdomdConnection.
The ConnectionString property matches the OLE DB connection string format as closely as possible. You can use the ConnectionString property to connect to an analytical data source that supports the XML for Analysis 1.1 specification.
Many of the connection string values have corresponding read-only properties. When you set the connection string, all of these properties are updated, except when an error is detected. Detection of an error prevents all properties from being updated.
Resetting the ConnectionString property on a closed connection resets all connection string values (and related properties), including the password. For example, you set a connection string that includes Catalog= Adventure Works DW. You then reset the connection string to DataSource=localhost;Password=MyPassword. The Database property is now no longer set to the Adventure Works DW database. (The Catalog setting of the connection string corresponds to the Database property.)
A preliminary validation of the connection string is performed when the property is set. When an application calls the Open method, the connection string is parsed and individual properties are evaluated based on their level of support. If the AdomdConnection directly supports a property provided in the connection string, the value for that property is validated. If the value is not valid or is unsupported, an exception is thrown. If the property is not directly supported by the AdomdConnection, but the property can be used to construct a valid XML element, the property and its value are passed directly to the underlying provider. If such a property contains a value that is not valid or is unsupported, an exception is thrown at that time.
Values can be delimited by single or double quotes (for example, name='value' or name="value"). Either single or double quotes may be used within a connection string by using the other delimiter (for example, name="value's" or name= 'value"s', but not name='value's' or name= ""value""). All blank characters are ignored, except those placed within a value or within quotes. Keyword value pairs must be separated by a semicolon (;). If a semicolon is part of a value, it also must be delimited by quotes. No escape sequences are supported. The value type is irrelevant. Names are not case sensitive. If a property name occurs more than once in the connection string, the value associated with the last occurrence is used.
Applications should use caution when constructing a connection string based on user input (for example, when retrieving user ID and password information from a dialog box, and appending this information to the connection string). The application should ensure that a user cannot embed extra connection string parameters in these values (for example, a user that is trying to connect to a different database might enter a password as validpassword;database=somedb).
The following table describes the connection string settings directly supported by the AdomdConnection. Provider-specific connection strings settings may also be set, but are not listed here.
Setting name
Setting aliases
Sets the time to wait for a command to run before the AdomdConnection stops trying to run the command and generates an error.
Connect Timeout
Sets the time to wait for a connection to be established before the AdomdConnection stops trying to connect and generates an error.
Data Source
Sets the instance or local cube (.cub) file to which the AdomdConnection establishes a connection. When connecting to a PowerPivot embedded instance the value must be $Embedded$; dollar signs included.
Authenticated User
User ID
Sets the user ID or name that the AdomdConnection uses to establish a connection.
Sets the password that the AdomdConnection uses to establish a connection with the specified user name.
Initial Catalog
Sets the database to which the AdomdConnection establishes a connection.
Sets the level of protection that the provider uses to sign or encrypt the connection. This setting has the following options:
Safety Options
Sets the safety level that determines how security for user-defined functions and actions is handled.
Sets the time, in milliseconds, that elapses before objects automatically synchronize with the server.
Sets the method that the AdomdConnection uses used to connect to the server. If set to 8.0, the connection uses in-process XML for Analysis to connect to the server. If set to 9.0, the connection uses XML for Analysis. If set to Default, the connection first tries XML for Analysis, and then tries to use in-process XML for Analysis.
Sets the name of the provider for the data source. The default value is MSOLAP.
Sets the provider-specific information that is required to access the data source.
Integrated Security
Sets the control access to use. If set to SSPI, an SSPI supported security package is used for user authentication. If set to Basic, the UserName and Password settings is required. An HTTP connection can use only the setting of Basic.
Sets the CREATE CUBE statement that is used during creation of a local cube.
Protocol Format
Sets the format of the XML sent to the server. Settings can be Default, XML, or Binary.
Encryption Password
Sets the password used to decrypt local cubes.
Impersonation Level
Sets the level of impersonation that the server is allowed to use when impersonating the client. The available settings are Anonymous, Identify, Impersonate, and Delegate. The default is Impersonate.
Sets the security package to use for user authentication. Available settings include Negotiate, Kerberos, NTLM, and Anonymous User. The default is Negotiate.
Sets whether to use or overwrite the existing file. If set to true, the local file must already exist, and the cube is either created if the cube does not exist, or used if the cube does exist. If set to false, the existing local cube is overwritten. The default is false.
Character Encoding
Sets how characters are encoded. The default is the string UTF-8.
Use Encryption for Data
Sets whether encryption is used between the client and server. If set to true, all data sent between the client and server is encrypted with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, provided that the server has a certificate installed.
Packet Size
Sets the packet size, in bytes, of network communications between client and server. The value must between 512 and 32767. The default is 4096.
Extended Properties
Sets the connection string properties that are to override the connection string in which Extended Properties is contained. This property is itself a connection string, the properties of which override the connection string in which Extended Properties is contained. Extended Properties can contain another Extended Properties, the properties of which maintain precedence. Extended Properties supports unlimited nesting.
Sets the preferred locale ID for the client application.
Sets the name of the server.
Restricted Client
Sets whether the client is restricted. If set to true, the client will be restricted from using local cube and local mining model functionality. Thus, a client that tries to use the local cube or local mining models will raise an error.
Persist Security Info
Sets whether security information will be persisted. If set to true, security-related information can be obtained from the connection after the connection has been opened.
Sets the session identifier that the connection will use. If the session identifier does not match an existing session, an error will be raised.
Transport Compression
Sets whether the connection will communicate with compression. If set to None, no compression will be used. If set to Compressed, communications may be compressed to reduce packet size. The GZIP setting compresses HTTP connections. If set to Default, GZIP will be used over an HTTP connection; otherwise, no compression will be used.
Compression Level
Sets the compression level, from 0 to 9. The greater the value, the higher the compression.
Sets the name of the application that is to be associated with this connection. This value can be useful when monitoring trace events.
Sets the process ID of the application that is to be associated with this connection. If this value is not set, and SspropInitAppName has been set, ClientProcessID will automatically be set to the process ID retrieved from the client operating system. This value can be useful when monitoring trace events.
Update Isolation Level
Specifies whether the cells in a single UPDATE CUBE statement are isolated from each other. The default is not isolated.
A bitmask that determines the behavior of subqueries. This property can have the values listed in the following table.
Zero or empty are the default values for this property.
This is a session property that can only be set when the session is created.
For more information about the behavior of calculated members or calculated sets in subqueries and subcubes, see Calculated Members in Subselects and Subcubes.
Determines the behavior of autoexists. This property can have the values listed in the following table.
Zero or empty are the default values for this property.
This is a session property that can only be set when the session is created.
Several connection string settings map to a corresponding property in the AdomdConnection. The following table lists the connection string settings their corresponding AdomdConnection property.
Setting name
Property name
Properties that are Initialization Properties cannot be changed after a connection has been opened. The set of available initialization properties can be queried through IDBProperties::GetPropertyInfo.
To connect to an existing local cube file, you must provide the full path and file name of a valid local cube file in the Data Source connection string setting and, if applicable, a valid password in the Password connection string setting. If the local cube file does not already exist, a new local cube file is created and protected by the password, provided that a password was specified. If a local cube is to be created, additional settings must be specified in the connection string, such as INSERTINTO or CREATECUBE.
The value of the Safety Options property determines whether unsafe libraries can be registered and loaded by Microsoft PivotTable Service or the server. If an attempt is made to load an unsafe library or reference an unsafe user-defined function while safety checking is enabled, then PivotTable Service returns the following error:
User defined function <function name> cannot be used, because the class that implements it is not safe for initialization or scripting, which is required by client settings.
The value of the Safety Options property determines whether the PASSTHROUGH keyword is allowed in local cubes. If a client application tries to create a local cube with an INSERT INTO statement that contains the PASSTHROUGH keyword, or if a client application attempts to refresh a local cube that contains an INSERT INTO statement that uses the PASSTHROUGH keyword, an error is raised.
The following table lists the possible values for the Safety Options property.
For connections to a local cube, or by an Internet Information Services (IIS) server, this value is the same as DBPROPVAL_MSMD_SAFETY_OPTIONS_ALLOW_SAFE.
For all other connections, this value is the same as DBPROPVAL_MSMD_SAFETY_OPTIONS_ALLOW_ALL.
This value enables all user-defined function libraries without verifying that the libraries are safe for initialization and scripting, and also allows usage of the PASSTHROUGH keyword in local cubes.
MDSCHEMA_ACTIONS results are unfiltered.
This value ensures that all classes for a particular user-defined function library are checked to ensure that they are safe for initialization and scripting, and also prevents usage of the PASSTHROUGH keyword in local cubes.
MDSCHEMA_ACTIONS results of type HTML and command line are filtered out. MDSCHEMA_ACTIONS results of type URL are filtered out unless the CONTENT column begins with HTTP:// or HTTPS://.
This value prevents user-defined functions from being used during the session and prevents usage of the PASSTHROUGH keyword in local cubes.
MDSCHEMA_ACTIONS results are empty.
The value of the Update Isolation Level property affects how Analysis Services will evaluate each cell for update. Cells to be updated can overlap from one SET command to the next, in the same UPDATE statement. If updated cells do not overlap, you can improve performance by setting Update Isolate Level to Isolated (1). However, if updated cells do overlap and Update Isolate Level is set to Isolated (1), the outcome of the UPDATE statement will be erroneous.
The following table lists the possible values for the Update Isolate Level property.
Not Isolated
To understand overlapping, review the following fact table of a simple Sales Forecasting cube with only five rows.
Suppose you want assign to Projected Sales a distributed value of 100 for all females and a distributed value of 200 for all salespeople from California (CA). In this case, your update cube statement would be as follows:
UPDATE CUBE SalesForcasting SET Female=100, CA=200 USE_EQUAL_INCREMENT
If you check the updated cells you will notice that they do not overlap. Female updated cells are Alice and Betty's cells and California cells are Diego and Edward.
Now, suppose you want to assign a distributed value of 100 to all males and a distributed value of 200 to all salespeople from Washington (WA). In this case, your update cube statement would be the following:
UPDATE CUBE SalesForcasting SET Male=100, WA=200 USE_EQUAL_INCREMENT
If you check the updated cells you will notice that they do overlap. Male updated cells are Charles, Diego, and Edwards' cells, and Washington cells are Betty and Charles. The cells overlap at Charles.

Regarding reader Paul Streckfus' recent letter about the Internal Revenue Service, Mr. Streckfus is typical of the civil servants who work for that out-of-control agency and blame previous administrations for all the inadequacies and failures of the current regime ("Ehrlich wrong about the IRS," June 23).
He has the audacity to say that private corporations spend money on conferences. He uses the specious argument that money spent by corporations is indirectly taxpayer money since it is deductible (which in reality is less than 30 cents on the dollar). The $50 million the IRS spent on conferences from 2010 to 2012 was 100 percent taxpayer funded.
What makes it even more outrageous is that this was done during just a two year period by only one of more than 1,300 government agencies. Can you even begin to think the billions that are being wasted by the rest of those agencies?
Now the news is that the IRS is handing out $70 million in bonuses to its employees. Will the waste by these bureaucrats — who have never run a business, paid for their own medical coverage or had to meet a payroll — ever end?

It wont start, and wont give codes (It runs, YAY)
Posted 09 April 2006 - 12:20 AM
Fuel pump cycles on and off.
Has spark
There is 12v to earth on both pins of the injector. Is this right?
Only code that flashes is 7 (australia non turbo) (im using the mpfi ecu for now)
o2 sensor is not connected,.. no code
When i unplug the injector ,,, no code
im yet to see if i can get a code, even though i have unplugged the maf, injector and purge soleniod, but still no codes???
only previous code was coolant temp, but i fixed it.
This was with no test connectors connected.
Is there anything im not doing?
Could my ecu be toast?
Posted 09 April 2006 - 12:23 AM
Posted 09 April 2006 - 02:58 AM
Check the connections, clean 'em up, if all else fails, replace... That's what I did.
Posted 09 April 2006 - 03:57 AM
So i will order new leads and a new disty cap as well, the points in it are pretty worn.
But that still doesnt explain why if i unplug the maf, the injectors, the ficd solenoid or the purge soleniod, it doesnt give codes
Beats me :-\
The car has sat in a paddock for almost 2 years (i have had it running, about 6 months ago, before i started the conversion) so I drained the fuel at the outlet just before the pump, and put more in, but should i drain the whole tank, how is this done
Posted 09 April 2006 - 11:50 AM
Easiest way I've found to drain the gas tank.... Unhook a fuel line under the hood before/after the fuel filter. Get extra length of fuel line and route into container. Turn key to 'on' and let the fuel pump pulse and pump out the gas. Takes a while, but you don't have to rig up any power connections directly to the pump. For the couple I've drained this way, I just got a majority of the old gas out, then replaced it with much more good gas + seafoam.
Posted 09 April 2006 - 09:29 PM
You could try spraying some starter fluid into the intake to see if that will make the engine fire.
Posted 10 April 2006 - 03:41 AM
So ignition seems good.
Fuel is the problem.
I have 12 volts on both sides of the injector, then when i start it, the voltage fluctuates (kinda hard to tell with a digital meter)
Sooooo,..... Its either bad fuel, or the injectors are blocked :-\
Im gonna try to make up a temporary tank and fill it with fresh fuel and see if that works.
Hooziewhatsit... When i turn the ignition to on (not start) the fuel pump comes on only once, I didnt have the green plugs connected, but if i do, the fuel pump cycles on and off.
Thanks guys
Posted 10 April 2006 - 05:19 AM
Disconnected the fuel line from the back of the fuel filter, led the hose to a jug, plugged in the greens, put the key in the ON position.
Once no more gas came out, I immediately turned the key to OFF, replaced and reconnected the fuel filter, put in a few gallons of fresh fuel, added half a bottle of injector cleaner, and it started up.
Again, like I said, I dont know if it's bad for the car, I'm just telling ya what I did.
Posted 10 April 2006 - 06:08 AM
once the connectors are verified - are you sure the fuel pump is sending fuel to the engine? have you pulled a hose and verified that when you turn the key on the fuel pump cycles and gas comes out at the engine?
might be hard for a mutimeter to read real time fluctuations at the fuel injectors like you said.
fuel injectors have a common ground under the intake (close to the thermostat housing, behind it and the power steering pump). and there are also the dropping resistors by the front strut tower that are for the injectors.
this could get really confusing so i'll try to keep it short but what year motor and engine exactly did you use? i just looked through the wiring diagrams this weekend for my issues (in the States, don't know if yours is different) and the 1987 and 1988 model year wiring harnesses are quite different. and on another note the waste gate solenoid (for the turbo) is tied into a number of different things, it branches off to the fuel pump relay for sure and some other things. not sure if this could be your issues but sounds suspicious. if you're not getting fuel at the motor when you turn it on or try to start then i'd suspect it is related to this and i can go into more detail later.
Posted 10 April 2006 - 06:27 AM
Ive checked out the wiring for the wgds,.. one pin goes to the ecu (the ecu grounds this when activated) the other wire is connected to the 12+ on with ignition that the fuel pump and other solenoids are connected to.
I think bad fuel is the problem, cos it gave a couple of coughs before i started adding fuel to the intake.
I will try with new fuel and see how it goes.
Posted 10 April 2006 - 06:51 AM
Posted 10 April 2006 - 07:33 AM
Posted 10 April 2006 - 11:39 AM
Just another look at it I guess...
Posted 11 April 2006 - 04:03 AM
Im gonna take them off and put some others on.
I will take another look at the earthing (this is the one on the thermostat housing right?) but im pretty sure it is ok.
It ran a little better today, for nearly 8 seconds, and that cos i adjusted the timing, i think i had it at 0deg tdc. But i still needed to add fuel to the intake to get it to run.
Keep those suggestions coming
Posted 11 April 2006 - 05:08 AM
Posted 11 April 2006 - 05:15 AM
the line off the filter will connect to the iddle and highest line on the intake, the return line is the other, and the skinny is the vapor breather.
the fuel coes into the rails BEFORE the INJECTOR side, and the return line is AFTER the fuel pressure REGULATOR
Posted 11 April 2006 - 10:12 AM
As I stated before, someone here had this same problem and found that the ECU internal ground had a bad connection and simply repaired it to get things going again. The problem with your car may be the same thing.
Posted 14 April 2006 - 04:17 AM
started it, nothing....
Poured fuel down the throat, it ran,..... stumbled,.. so i hit the accelerator pedal and it died.
Repeated it and VROOOOOM
So i thought it must have been a bad maf so i plugged it back in.
It ran:slobber: ... so i unlpugged the air intake, it died:confused:
So maf is good and the car now runs
The only problem is that there is smoke rings coming out of the radiator pipe (no radiator at the moment) so must be a headgasket
And there is oil in the turbo,... prolly not a good sign
But it runs,.... YAY FOR GANNON
Thanks guys for your input:headbang:

UniCredit economist Loredana Federico takes the glass-is-half-full view of this week's Italian election — the same election that is giving investors the jitters. Italy's FTSE MIB index has slumped 4% midday Tuesday and the yield on 10-year Italian bonds rose by nearly half a percentage point to 4.84%, the highest this year, notes the WSJ's Charles Forelle.
Here in the U.S., iShares MSCI Italy Capped Index Fund (EWI) slumped 5.7% on Monday after the close of trading in Europe, but this morning it is ahead by 1.5%.
Short version: Despite the likelihood of "some months of political uncertainty," there's a low likelihood that fiscal reforms that already are in effect will be undone, argues Federico in a client note making the rounds on Tuesday. Further, the surprise gains by the Five Star Movement could "lead to something good, including a cut in the excessive cost of government," she writes.
Here's the analysis:
- The center-left coalition won the Lower House by an exceptionally thin margin, but the Senate is hung.
- Compared with the opinion polls, Grillo's Five Star Movement (M5S) is the real surprise, with about 25% of total votes. Center-right performs better than expected, particularly in a couple of important regions (thereby "capturing" the Senate), while Monti's middle coalition did worse than projected. The resulting situation is complex.
- The most likely outcome is that Bersani will be asked to form a government, but he'll need support from the M5S. While the experience in Sicily suggests a possible cooperation between the center-left and M5S, at this time we regard this outcome as an unstable coalition.
- This suggests a bi-partisan agreement to change the electoral law (possibly with a few other reforms thrown in), followed by new elections. This implies some months of measurable political uncertainty.
- We reiterate our long-held view that in terms of policies, the only real risk lies in any significant undoing of existing fiscal or structural policies – and that we see as unlikely.
More than anything, the outcome of the Italian election illustrates a very high degree of voter disaffection with the traditional parties and many mainstream politicians. The percentage of voters who decided to stay away from the polls was about 25% in both the houses of parliament, compared with about 19% recorded in the 2008's elections. This general opposition to the "establishment" was confirmed by the very high popularity of M5S. Indeed, the performance of M5S over the last few weeks of the official campaign was impressive and its leader, the comedian Beppe Grillo, was particularly able to capture some voters' interests in non-conventional political forces and disenchantment with the "old" political parties (on both sides of the political spectrum), so many times hit by political scandals and unable to fix Italy's long-standing problems.
As such, the relative victory of M5S is an important message to the established parties, which may – eventually – lead to something good, including a cut in the excessive cost of government. And in terms of policies, our view remains that Italy needs no further net fiscal tightening – indeed some well designed, "smart" easing might be called for – and while we always wish for more structural reforms, there is still measurable positive growth effects in the pipeline from this past year's reforms. In other words, Italy does not need new draconian measures in the short term, but just an avoidance of any back-pedaling on the policy front. That all said, the election outcome will lead to further uncertainty in markets for at least a few months. Good thing that the sovereign has already funded almost 25% of its full-year need. Also abundant redemptions in April should provide support to the auctions, limiting pressure coming from supply. The odds are, therefore, that the weakness in markets will be relatively contained.
A look at the composition of the new Parliament
The center-left coalition won a relative majority of seats at the national level, although by a razor-thin margin. However, due to the technicalities of the electoral system, this was not enough to secure the absolute majority of seats in both houses of the parliament.
In the Lower House, the center-left coalition ranked first with 29.5% of ballots. The gap with the center-right coalition (29.2%) was very thin, but sufficient to secure the majority premium. This implies that the center-left will automatically receive at least 340 seats (55% of the total). As a single party, the M5S won 25.6% of votes, which makes it the political party with the highest percentage of votes in the Lower House, although by a tiny margin (the Democratic party (PD) ranked second, with 25.4% of votes). The vote share of the center-coalition, led by Monti, was 10.6%.
In the Senate, the center-left and the center-right are neck to neck (31.6% vs. 30.7%), but the center-right won in all the most relevant regions, including Lombardy, Veneto, Campania and Sicily. This is a more solid performance compared to what opinion polls had suggested (and it is our key "risk scenario" we outlined in our note two weeks ago), and implies that the center-right is likely to get 116 seats vs. 113 seats for the center-left (158 seats are needed for the absolute majority). Monti's center-coalition won 9.1% of the votes (18 seats), implying that a potential coalition between the center-left and the center would fall well short of the required absolute majority of seats. The Five Star Movements won a surprisingly high 24% of the vote, thus securing 54 seats.
Where do we go from here?
This morning, the official seat allocation in parliament has been announced. Starting from that, the next key dates will be the elections of the president of the Lower House and the Upper House, which we expect to be concluded by about the middle of March. At that time, the process of forming a government will start and may take several weeks. President Napolitano (whose mandate expires on 15 May) will then start consultations with all political parties to form a new government. As the center-left coalition got the absolute majority in the Lower House, Bersani is likely to first be given the mandate to form a new government.
However, at least in theory, the President could also decide to opt for a transitional government, giving the mandate to a non-party person. We think this is unlikely, at least at this stage. In any case, after this, the person identified by the President will start his consultation process in order to decide whether to accept the mandate and set-up the list of ministries. The new cabinet ministers will take their oath of office and the new government has to win a confidence vote in both chambers of Parliament within ten days from its appointment.
Potential outcomes
What are the potential outcomes of this round of consultations?
1. Temporary government: We see this as the most likely outcome. President Napolitano could decide to give either Pier Luigi Bersani (most likely) or a non-partisan person (less likely) the mandate to form a new government, which necessarily would need fairly bi-partisan support. This is likely to be a temporary majority which aims to guarantee: a) the approval of a new electoral law, in order to overcome the evident limitations of the current system; b) some reforms of the institutions, such as a reduction of the costs of politics, including probably a reduction of the number of members of parliament, and c) a short list of economic measures, including, for example, the sale of state assets to reduce the public debt – we recall that the Italian government has to present the updated fiscal and economic projections and the National Program of the Reform in mid-April. In this case, it is very difficult to predict the stance of the M5S and its availability to be part of a grand coalition, including its incentive to work together on changing the electoral law. Also, the main political parties have been in talks for most of the past year to reach an agreement on a new electoral law, without success. Still, it is likely that the latest developments may change the attitude of the main political parties.
2. Immediate new election: The new President of the Republic may decide that the conditions for a new government are not in place. He dissolves parliament and calls new elections, which would take place only after a period of between 45-70 days to allow time for another election campaign.
3. Wider coalition: During the consultation period, a wider coalition led by the center-left, possibly including the M5S and the center coalition, may end-up being able to form a new government. In this case, Bersani is the most likely candidate to lead this coalition. However, at this stage, it is premature to anticipate how members of the M5S will behave once in parliament – many of the candidates lack political experience. Beppe Grillo himself will not seek office and until now he and his movement have shown no willingness to cooperate with the existing parties. Still, in Sicily "selected" cooperation, without an official alliance, between the M5S and the center coalition is already in the cards and Mr. Bersani opened up to M5S over the last few days of the electoral campaign.
The general M5S manifesto includes laws to address corruption and conflicts of interest, while details of the recipes to support medium-term growth are very thin. Among other things, the movement advocates: 1. fiscal consolidation with a view to reduce public debt – with measures to strongly reduce the cost of politics and to improve the quality of public expenditure, also with a better use of technology; 2. intervention on the labor market, including measures on flexibility on the hiring side and a minimum unemployment payment; 3. measures to increase flexibility on the product markets, mostly in the network industries. On some of these issues, some converging views between the center-left and center coalition and M5S members cannot be ruled out. However, at this stage, some anti-European declarations of the M5S seem to argue against this potentially wide coalition.
All in all, any of the listed outcomes will take some time to materialize, implying that uncertainty will most likely prevail for a number of weeks. Still, a political stalemate, without major new reforms but no reversal of what has already been done, would not affect the strong fiscal policy and structural reforms already implemented, able to provide some support to the medium-long term economic growth.

NC Beach Sees Unusual Jump In Stingray Strikes
COROLLA, N.C. (AP) – Ocean rescue workers along one Outer Banks beach say swimmers have suffered an unusual number of injuries from stingrays that lurk in the sand below their feet.
The Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk, Va., reports that during one week last month there were at least two injuries each day from stingrays, something that Corolla rescue chief Sylvia Wolff says generally occurs fewer than five times a year.
Wolff says Corolla Ocean Rescue reported 238 major medical incidents from June through August, with about a third of those resulting from stingrays.
Stingrays strike back when they're stepped on by swimmers. Their tail is armed with a poisonous barb, which can break off in the flesh.
Other North Carolina beaches have not reported an increase in stingray stings.

Recap | Final Stats | Quotes | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2
Shutout Avoided: Thanks to a 12-play, 75-yard TD-drive that consumed 4:22 late in the fourth quarter, Georgia avoided its first shutout since the 1995 Alabama game. Sophomore Ken Malcome accounted for 45 yards rushing on five carries on the scoring drive including a 3-yard TD run. However, tonight marked the first time since the 2009 LSU game in Athens that Georgia failed to score in the first half. That year, the 14th-ranked Bulldogs trailed fourth-ranked LSU 6-0 and lost 20-13. Georgia came in tonight leading the SEC in scoring offense at 48.2 points a game while USC ranked second in the league in scoring defense at 11.2 points.
Top 10 Contest: Tonight was a Top 10 matchup for the first time in series history with USC at #6 and Georgia at #5. Under Mark Richt, the Bulldogs are now 3-5 in top 10 matchups.
Win Streak Ends: Georgia (5-1, 3-1 SEC) saw its streak of consecutive wins in the regular season end at 15. Prior to tonight, the last time Georgia lost a regular season game was last year against then #12 South Carolina in Athens 45-42 on Sept. 10. Tonight, Georgia trailed 21-0 at the half which marked the largest halftime deficit since the 2008 Alabama game in Athens when the Crimson Tide led 31-0 en route to a 41-30 victory over the Bulldogs.
Geathers Blocks Field Goal: Junior nose Kwame Geathers blocked a 33-yard field goal attempt by Adam Yates in the third quarter. It was the first field goal block by a Bulldog since the 2009 Independence Bowl when Geno Atkins had one against Texas A&M. Earlier this year against Florida Atlantic, Geathers blocked a PAT.
Jones Gets Another Sack: Junior All-American OLB Jarvis Jones registered a sack to give him 5.5 for the year and 19 in his Bulldog career after leading the SEC last year with 13.5. Jones finished the game with four tackles including two TFL for minus nine.
Another Catch For TK: Senior Tavarres King registered a catch in his 21st consecutive game. He finished with 1 catch for 16 yards.
Points off Turnovers: South Carolina got 7 points off 1 Bulldog turnover. Aaron Murray had a pass tipped that resulted in an INT (DeVonte Holloman) on Georgia's first drive at the SC30. It was Murray's fourth INT of the year and second straight week off a tipped pass. Bulldog opponents now have 43 points off 10 Georgia miscues this season. Murray finished tonight 11-for-31, 109 yards.
Last Time: South Carolina's Ace Sanders returned a punt 70 yards for a TD, the first to do that against the Bulldogs since the 2011 SEC Championship game when LSU's Tyrann Mathieu took one 62 yards in Atlanta.
GameDay: Georgia is now 3-10 in games when ESPN GameDay is on-site including 3-4 in an opponent's stadium.
For Starters: Junior QB Aaron Murray started his team-leading 33rd consecutive game while senior Shawn Williams has a team-high 13 consecutive starts in a row on defense.
Captains: Junior QB Aaron Murray, senior CB Sanders Commings, senior LB Christian Robinson and junior OT Kenarious Gates served as captains tonight.
Up Next: Georgia has an open date next Saturday before returning to action Oct. 20 at Kentucky. The game time has not been set.

The lights are on
I grew up thinking Transformers were super stupid. My older brother was into them, but I was too young to figure out the toys' puzzling transformations and stuck to my Ninja Turtles. Time passed and I never understood the nostalgic reverence with which Transformers fans regard the series. Michael Bay's blockbuster was entertaining, but I thought the idea of intergalactic robots that turn into earth vehicles was idiotic. Then I sat down for a demonstration of High Moon Studio's Transformers: Fall of Cybertron at E3 2012, and it sparked something in me I couldn't have predicted.
The demo was headed by director Matt "Tieg" Tieger, a passionate and personable Transformers nerd I recognized from video interviews on our War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron hubs. I also remembered his name from both of our cover stories for High Moon's games. I remember reading our stories and being impressed by the amount of enthusiasm and loyalty that Tieg and the other developers had for the Transformers brand. The screenshots looked great and the gameplay sounded solid, though my lack of Transformers appreciation held me back from playing War for Cybertron.
My hesitation to play the games had to be shelved when I was sat down in a dark room with the creators. They introduced me to a robotic T-Rex named Grimlock. Tieg chuckled a bit as he introduced the fire-breathing, tail-swiping character. He seemed aware of how ridiculous the concept was, which I appreciated as an outsider. Transformers fans had always been no-nonsense defenders of Hasbro lore in my mind's eye, but I saw something different during that demo that made me curious.
The powerful Dinobots piqued my curiosity, but the real slam dunk occurred when I got my hands on the game. I played a section starring Vortex, a Combaticon that turns into a helicopter and a jet in Fall of Cybertron. His section of the game allows you to hover above groups of Autobots and fire missiles or transform into a robot for some visceral melee combat. By the time I was finished speeding out of an exploding Autobot base in Vortex's jet form, I was sold.
After returning to the Game Informer office following E3 I immediately checked out Transformers: War for Cybertron from the vault. I popped the game in and was immediately impressed by the graphical polish, explosive setpieces, and transformation abilities. War for Cybertron carries a pretty serious overall tone, but I picked up on the goofiness lurking beneath. I was in the mood for goofy, and decided it was time to experience the origin of the goofy transforming-robot dynasty.
So I booted up Netflix Instant and crossed my fingers that the original 1980s cartoon series was on there. It was (and still is, so watch it). The show immediately explained the origin of the Transformers. Turns out they weren't Earth vehicles to begin with, but used our cars and planes and blueprints to rebuild themselves after crash-landing. I continued watching the show while playing through War for Cybertron, which helped me appreciate both versions more. Watching Starscream's constant attempts to usurp Megatron in the show made seeing nods to this in the game more meaningful and hilarious.
While I now appreciate the fundamentally awesome premise of robots that turn into trucks and jets and shoot lasers at each other, I really love The Transformers cartoon for how absurd it gets:
I finished most of the first-generation The Transformers cartoons by the time Transformers: Fall of Cybertron came out. Having seen the majority of the classic series made returning to High Moon's universe even more meaningful. The beginning sequence involving the Ark's escape from Cybertron carried more weight because I was educated about these robots' origin. Starscream's coronation, rise to power, and eventual humbling at the hands of Megatron was more enjoyable because I'd seen all their hijinks. All this newfound Transformers appreciation combined with the strides High Moon made in terms of pacing and gunplay resulted in a wonderful experience.
Meanwhile, I had been talking with other Transformers nerds at the Game Informer office like Matt Miller and Andrew Reiner. These lore-masters were always eager to answer my questions about the befuddling story or find out what happened in the last episode I watched. We chatted about multiple elements of the show, but one thing rang loud in every conversation: "You gotta watch the 1986 animated film." Both Miller and Reiner spoke breathlessly about how impactful this movie was on their young minds. I felt like my time with High Moon's Transfomers games and the original series was building to the film.
I finally watched The Transformers: The Movie animated film a couple of weeks ago. A handful of fellow coworkers and I assembled to watch it as a capstone for my inauguration into the series. I had been regaling them with stories of how ludicrous the 1980s cartoon is, and they were eager to have some beers and laugh along with me. But amidst the chuckles and confusion there was genuine disbelief on my part. Hasbro wanted to get a new line of Transformers toys in kids' hands, and that meant clearing out the old line. The Transformers film unceremoniously kills off a huge portion of the robots that had grown on me over the months, and it was surreal watching them go.
I feel like I've consumed enough Transformers over the past year to confidently say I'm a fan of the series. I don't have the nostalgia everyone else does, nor have I seen the Michael Bay sequels, but I love the quirky, self-aware vibe the series still exudes. I've dabbled in the new Transformers: Prime show and watched a couple episodes of Beast Wars, but I'm happy I gave the original robots in disguise another chance. I just took a strange route to get there.

No More Monkey Business: Jeter to Return to Yankees
OK, I'm a little technologically deficient and for the past hour have been trying to embed my Facebook video to the blog, so the video will show up here. Unfortunately, it's not working.
I decided to do a video blog talking about Derek Jeter's return to the Yankees.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — One team has made it to South Florida for the BCS championship and the other won't be far behind.
With buses adorned in Notre Dame colors awaiting them on the tarmac, the plane carrying the top-ranked Fighting Irish landed Wednesday afternoon as they begin final preparations for Monday night's national title matchup with No. 2 Alabama.
The Crimson Tide is scheduled to land in Miami later Wednesday.
Grand welcomes are planned for both teams, including water cannon sprays over their planes and greetings from local officials.
After that, the work for both resumes in earnest on Thursday. Both teams have three days of practice scheduled before a walkthrough at Sun Life Stadium on Sunday.

So here it is, the entire thing for your reading pleasure. I present to you the entire Jeff Ireland pre-draft press conference.
Before you invest some time on that, kindly check out my column in today's Herald on the topic of what I believe the Dolphins should, and in fact, will do in the draft next Thursday. Tell me if you agree in the comments section.
(Opening Statement) – "First of all, I would like to make an announcement, you guys got the release that we have promoted Brian Gaine to the Director of Player Personnel. I am very pleased about that. Brian has been a guy that has been a great asset to me in Dallas as well here. I think it is appropriate that he gets elevated to help me with the draft obviously. In free agency, he is going to be my right hand man since Bill has left. He has been my right hand man really since I had him in Dallas. I am very pleased with him. He is a strong evaluator and I am glad to have him in the position he is in."
(On Brian Gaine's role and strengths) – "Where Brian's strengths are marrying the free agency to college. He is a guy that in the last year that Bill has left…it hasn't been a year, but I got out him out on the college side of things. He does some evaluative things. I give him the top 100 list of players to evaluate. He helps marry what is out in free agency to what is out there in the draft and so there is not only my eyes doing the exact same set of things, now there are two sets of eyes doing it, so we will collaborate together in that process."
(On how Brian Gaine's duties will change with the promotion) – "They change a little bit for certain. He was pretty much over the pro side of things. I am going to have him really help me supervise both college and pro."
(On putting together draft board with draft taking place before free agency) –"In preparation with the draft board, it hasn't changed too much. You still put up the board pretty much the same way I have always put it up. Free agency doesn't affect how you evaluate these players. It affects your strategy. I think that is the most important thing that it affects your strategy going into the draft. Normally by this time, you have hit some musts or some needs or some things that you needed to put on your team. Now it is kind of wide open. Your musts, your wants and your needs are all there and you just have to supplement it with free agency after the draft."
(On how concerned he is with running game and if he has to draft a running back) – "Not necessarily. I don't feel that way that I have to. I am going to go into this draft pretty much the way I always go into it. I don't want to reach for players, just to fill a roster spot. You have to be smart. Free agency will open up again. I do know that. Brian Gaine has reminded me a thousand times that free agency will open again. I go through the draft the same way, not the same way, but pretty much the same way in the fact that I don't want to reach for anybody and I want to make sure that I get the right contributing players for this football team."
(On how dynamics of draft room changes without Bill Parcells) – "Well, Bill brought a sense of awareness to everybody in the room. He had an aura about him. He always made it fun, but everyone knew when it was time to get down to business. That hasn't changed, but I am not naïve to the fact that I don't have that aura, but the mechanics have not changed. As a matter of fact, we probably are more focused on just work most of the time, because there are usually some storytelling involved in the draft room with Bill, so it is focused and the mechanics of it really haven't changed as much."
(On what kind of position he is in having inventory to make a trade and if he is restricted by the current labor situation) – "We are not allowed to trade players. That's one thing. That restricts you. We don't have a second round pick, that's obvious. So you are a little bit restricted to go up for sure, but I am game for anything. If there is a player that we feel and when we are done strategizing that we feel like we need to go up and get, you always have some ammunition you can use. My phone is there. It can ring anytime to trade up or back. It just has to be the right time and right player."
(On trading for active players) – "You can't do that."
(On trading players once the opportunity arises and a Collective Bargaining Agreement is reached) – "I haven't really thought about past the draft and trading for players and things like that. That's going to open up too at some point, just hasn't been an active thought of my thought process leading into the draft because I know I can't trade players."
(On whether the lockout puts a greater emphasis on drafting NFL ready prospects) – "I think it does put an emphasis on it. I think you certainly want players that you're confident with conviction that they can learn and come in right away and not need just a ton of the process to get it moving in the right direction I should say. There is more emphasis on that in my opinion."
(On the communication he can have with draft picks once they are selected) – "I'm not so sure I can even talk about it to be honest with you, about the rules and everything to be honest with you. I know I can call them. I know I can call them and say congratulations. I don't think I can call anybody after the last pick of the draft. I think I'm supposed to have no contact after the last pick of the draft."
(On whether he has a general philosophy on drafting a running back as high as pick number 15) – "Yeah I do have a philosophy about it. I don't know if I want to tell you my philosophy about it. I think that like most players…everybody says you can find running backs later in the draft. Well, you can find receivers late in the draft, and you can find guards late in the draft, and you can find tight ends late in the draft. It goes for every position in my mind. I think if you look at the top running backs in this league over time, they're going to be first and second round picks. I do know that."
(On whether that is the same with quarterbacks) – "Yeah, that study is probably accurate as well."
(On what the main thing he looks for while evaluating quarterbacks) – "You know, you're looking for all of it. You're looking for Peyton Manning. You're looking for Tom Brady. You're looking for all those things, obviously. You're looking for arm strength. You're looking for accuracy. You're looking for a quick release. You're looking for good footwork. You're looking for intangibles. You're looking for smarts. You're looking for mentally tough. You're looking for all those things, and you just have to go through the process of evaluating that when you're with the kid, watching through tape, watching tape with the kid. There's a certain process that you go through, and we felt like we've done our due diligence there."
(On whether an effective running game is more based upon the running back or the offensive line) – "Well it's a team sport, so I think that good teams have, good running games have the combination of a good offensive line and a good running back. I think you have to have a combination of both."
(On how thoroughly they have investigated Ryan Mallett and his impressions of Mallett) – "Well I have spent a lot of time with him, not going to deny that. I went there to visit with him. He's come here to visit with me and to visit with him as well. I feel like we've been very thorough in that, in that process, much like we are with every player that we are considering drafting. Sometimes when there's information out there you want to dispel rumors and get as much information that you can with any player out there, and that's why we went through the process. He's a nice young man, very talented kid, got a bright future."
(On the current quarterback class) – "I think it's good depth. I like the players that are in this draft. I think there's good depth there. I think you can find a good player. I don't have a crystal ball about what kind of players they're going to be in this league. There's a lot of things that go into that play, but I think it's a good depth group. I think there's, I think there's starters to be had."
(On how using seven of eight picks on defense in last year's draft affects this year's draft) – "Well I think with last year, to be honest with you, I wasn't really aware of, until the end that it was seven of eight picks to be honest with you. It wasn't the strategy that we had that we're going defense, defense, defense. It's kind of the way it fell. The draft board fell that way, so this year going into it I'm obviously more aware of what we did last year. The board has to fall the right way. You can't, you have to either go up, go down, or stay put obviously, but I don't feel like I have to just go out and get certain, certain positions. I don't feel that way. Again, free agency is going to open up again. I feel like we'd be an active player in free agency if that was to, when that time comes, so I'm going to try to draft good players that can contribute fast."
(On if it will be more difficult to get the second round pick that was traded to Denver last year back due to the labor issue) – "I can't tell you what the mindset of the other teams are; I think that there will be quite a bit of movement though. I think there will be movement, you just never can tell. You are going to get the same answer from most GM's, you are going to have to see how the board falls, where the movement is. I feel confident where the strengths of the board are, at least our board, and I am going to try to stay in those particular rounds as much as I can because that's where the strength is, according to our board. It may be different with other places."
(On if he is uncomfortable going into the draft without a second round pick) – "Yeah, you wish you had it, for sure, but I know I got a great player out of it to. So last year that was the right thing to do and I am glad we got the player, but now I'm 'dangum I wish we had that second round pick', but you pay for what you get. We got a great player and I am very proud of that. The great thing about this year is we really have an extra first round pick and an extra fourth round pick, because neither one of those guys have played, (2010 first round pick) Jared (Odrick) and (2010 fifth round pick) A.J. (Edds), so those two picks are really going to impact this year's draft class more than last year."
(On if a running back by committee lessens the value of the position compared to years past) – "Lessen the value? No, I don't think so Omar, I don't think it lessens the value. I think you have to go after as good a player as you can, because you never know when that player is going to get hurt in this business. I don't think it lessens the value, I think you after the best players you can possibly get. Right now, we only have two running backs right now on our roster, you don't know if you are going to get another one and another one at some point, so it doesn't lessen the value, but no."
(What are the tangible skills that you look for in a running back, do you separate the position by styles) - "Tangible skills? Well certainly with a running back you got to have instinct. You got to have quickness. You got to have vision. You got to have low center of gravity. You got to be tough; those are, I think those are critical."
(On if he feels more prepared with the Draft this year compared to years past because there is no free agency) –"Certainly it has allowed us to focus on one thing, and it's been all hands on deck, it really has, we have used everyone on our coaching staff, every person on our scouting staff. It has been great focus, great evaluative efforts here, so my hats off to my entire coaching staff and everybody in the building for that matter who has helped me focus on it. So yeah, I think you are prepared for it for sure."
(On where he is in the draft process as a result of the 'All hands on deck' approach) – "Yeah, you know we started off like gang busters, we go from eight to eight and eight to nine and we just go real hard and we got ahead of ourselves a little bit so we kind of slowed down a little bit. The great thing is I can give my staff off for Easter, so they got a little bit of a break for Easter and then we go back hard come Monday. So we are right where we need to be, to be honest with you."
(On how many Mock Drafts they do and if he looks at other peoples mock drafts) – "Yeah I really don't look at too many of them up until about now. I start looking at a few certain ones that have a little merit to them. We start 'mocking' ourselves this week, that's pretty much 'the hay's in the barn' and now its strategizing and things like that were , trying to do. So we start 'mocking' and that just gives me a little bit of a thought process, a little bit of vision of what might happen. I have never 'mocked' and been satisfied with it, usually the draft actually leads to better results than the actual mocking does. My scouts, when we 'mock', they know my board and sometimes there are players that are not on my board that get drafted and those are the things that you obviously can't predict, but I do look at them, they are fun to do."
(On the way the 2011 schedule looks) –"I think there are some tough stretches, obviously, I am happy we are opening up at home on Monday Night, that's exciting, against the Patriots. That's extremely exciting. It's one of the best teams in the league, your opening on Monday Night, you're at home, we have something to prove at home, so I am very excited about that, and that's all I have really looked at is game number one. But I think the schedule is good, we play on Thanksgiving it kind of a little bit of a homecoming for me, and I thought the schedule worked out nicely for us."
(On if there are many stretch the field running backs in the draft) – "However we find it, we need to try and find it. I don't know that we will and the answer could be on our team right now because we have some guys that didn't play. So I am not sure. There are a handful of guys there that can run, now how they fall and whether, now there is no science to this thing, so whether or not it's there or free agency or any of those things."
(On how he feels about the 15th overall selection) –
"The number itself or the pick itself (laughing). I mean the pick is great. I've always joked around with this but regardless of where you are picking in the draft, in my opinion, you usually are two players short of what you would need to get that pick. And so, in other words, you never have 15 players that you'd love to have at 15. You usually have 12 or 13 and so you're betting on someone else being picked. Whether you're the 27th pick, you never have 27 players. Or the fifth pick. You never have 5. Only one time that I had just one…the first pick and obviously I was proud of that one."
(On if they are better served moving down in the draft) – "Like you said it's the same in every draft."
(On if he gave every quarterback the same test he gave Andy Dalton) – "Every quarterback we went to look out was put through the same process. You have to do your homework that way. We didn't send them a playbook. We send them kind of a study guide. So we put every single player through the same process. You've got to be able to compare one apple to next apple. And so that's what we did."
(On how much weight he puts on the combine vs. the playing season) – "I'm a tape guy. Video guy…what do they call it these days. It's not tape. But I watch the video. I'm a tape guy. I'm going to go by what I see on that video tape and how they play the game. Football players play football and obviously you want to verify what you see on tape with the combine numbers and things like that and sometimes it opens your eyes; a performance at the combine would open your eyes to something that you're not seeing on tape. And so you get back and you watch it again, but you want those two to marry together. I put more weight on what I see as a football player playing the game of football."
(On going up or down in the draft) – "I have a fairly good sense of who I would take at that spot. There's no doubt about it. I mean I think if you can come down to two or three guys. So, yeah, I do and you know there are also scenarios to go up and get a guy if falls or go down two or three guys are not there."
(On how much information out there is misinformation) - "First of all I don't know if I believe even if I told him exactly what I was going to do. Because I think there is misinformation out there. I don't think the misinformation comes from the player itself. I think sometimes misinformation, its rumor, its hearsay. It's from someone that they thought they heard sometime, I don't think it's all on purpose sometimes. I couldn't tell you how much is misinformation. I can tell you that some of it, a small portion of what you hear out of our building is misinformation. So, but I can't tell you what the other stuff. I don't know what other than misinformation other teams are putting out there. But I've got to go by what I see. I've got to go by what I've been able to gather from my scouts and myself, my coaching staff and that's the information that's most important to me.

Because the buyout has not been finalized as the two parties approach the planting season, joint contracts will be used to avoid confusion among growers.
Four points were made by the co-op that have been agreed to by Tate and Lyle that will be applicable in the contracting process:
Growers who have subscribed for stock in the Cooperative will be permitted to grow the number of acres for which they have subscribed.
Growers who subscribed to the Cooperative will be permitted to grow additional acres during the 2002 crop year without the requirement of buying stock in the co-op at this time.
Grower who have not subscribed to the co-op will be permitted to grow a crop during the final year of the Western contract without subscribing at this time.
The Cooperative will accept subscriptions from growers who wish to subscribe at this time at $200 per acre. Growers will be given 30 days written notice before the price of subscriptions will be increased.
The Cooperative has agreed that in the event of the completed purchase by the co-op, all the contracts set forth will be honored for the 2002-growing season.
Tate and Lyle has also said that if the purchase is not completed it will honor its commitments under terms of the current Master Sugar Beet Contract.
Rick Dorn of the Cooperative emphasized the importance to all growers to contract as soon as possible in order that arrangements for the new crop year can be finalized.

Associated Press Release
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- The judge presiding over Casey Anthony's bankruptcy case says he'll announce in 30 days whether he'll allow the trustee overseeing it to sell the rights to her life story as a means to pay off her outstanding debts.
Judge K. Rodney May said Tuesday that his is skeptical that the request by the bankruptcy trustee could be used "as an injunction dressed up as a sale." May added that his initial thought is that it could be too restrictive on Anthony as she seeks a fresh financial start.
Trustee Stephen Meininger wants to set up a potential auction for "exclusive worldwide rights" for Anthony's life story.
Anthony lists about $792,000 owed to creditors.
Now 26, she was acquitted of murder in 2011 in the death her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

From this ex-customer they can rationalize all they want.
Yep, same here. And them there's weasel words from the clever lawyer at Microsoft anyway.
Notice how they keep using the phrase 'We do not provide any government...'? That's 'cause the NSA uses private contractors - like Snowden - to do the dirty work. There's lots more evasive lawyer-speak there too.
I'd trust them about as far as I could throw Ballmer. And I'm a 95 pound weakling...

Your right there, if you actually read the "series of clarifying remarks" - it is all lawyer weasel words aimed to try and persuade those that are left to listen, "there is nothing to see here, we comply with the law". Seriously - trust, once lost, is going to seriously hard to earn back for all these tech companies in bed with the Military Industrial Complex. We may not be able to do much immediately to rein in an out of control surveillance state run by the private and unaccountable MIC, but we sure as hell can vote with our feet by abandoning these big tech companies services, and encouraging those less informed about this whole debacle that they should too.
Now, just have to encourage in every way possible the development of easy to use default on encryption solutions for email (like OTR provides for chat). Also why the hell isnt slashdot offering https yet - apathy helps the sorry state of affairs continue...
I like how you wildly exaggerate insults against others... for wild exaggerations. Very meta.
Show us some of these wild exaggerations Snowden has made by dumping pertinent documents sourced directly from the NSA. Tell us all how Edward R. Murrow was not a real journalist because he openly formed conclusions, rather than hiding his personal biases behind selectively-uncritical regurgitation of official talking points.

Snowden has yet to reveal anything we didn't already know. Everything is available via google.
...and then the text is only occasionally snickered over by an "analyst".
Be honest. You subsidized their software just as much as everyone else
There, fixed that for you.
So Google can turn my data over to the NSA, I don't like Microsoft!
You may want to have a look at this [eff.org].
The difference is that ChromeOS is open source, so you can verify that's not actually the case.

Who needs encryption keys or back doors if Redmont is handing over (and not patching) Zero Day Exploits?
Why do you think it sometimes takes them forever to patch them?
Government oversight.
If you got a solid non Windows firewall AND user common sense (don't open anything you get in emails) AND encrypt your stuff, you should be safe.
Who needs encryption keys or back doors if Redmont is handing over (and not patching) Zero Day Exploits?
My guess is that they provide the data itself, not the keys to decrypt the data.
And this should not be only about MS. Any company should answer these questions. I really hope this shitstorm will kill stupid usage of "the cloud" but I doubt it. People are dumb, education budgets diminish every year so there is no changing that fact.
Education budgets in the US may diminish every year, but that probably isn't true in other industrialized countries. The real issue is that foreign governments and other customers may now decide that using Microsoft or any US-based vendor is a bad idea, tha
What about when the govt. agencies get those "legal papers" that compel MS to provide access to data on Outlook, Skydrive, etc? Do they provide encryption keys then? What about SSL certs? Do they send them over to the NSA after they expire?
When the government, any government, comes with court orders, of course they comply. Every company does, because they are then legally required to do so. Don't pretend that situation has changed between 1789 and today. NSLs, as far as I know, have no real legal standing. I don't know what a company could do if they didn't want to comply with a NSL.
LOL. As if Microsoft has never provided encryption keys before. Like since WinNT.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSAKEY [wikipedia.org]
The key that the wiki page mentions isn't for spying, it's for verifying digital signatures on third party cryptography service provider packages. It was named as such because CSP packages that are exported outside of USA have to receive export approval, something the NSA performed. So the NSAkey was named because it was a digital signature proving that a package had either received proper review or didn't need it (If it was for US only).
Not saying that NSA isn't spying, just that the key mentioned is not u
How could you possibly know that the key was not used for spying?
And why would they need their OWN key to verify the digital signatures?
And why would that key have the email of email@example.com?
Why the encryption process employed is susceptible to third party decryption in the first place. To avoid this from happening, the design needs to be end-to-end with the users holding the keys.
The email service that Microsoft hosts for free is hosted on Exchange if I am not mistaken. This is this likely target of the NSA or other government agencies when they're talking about Exchange encryption keys and not Exchange in general.
People who use the cloud are dumb.
Wow... what a high level of reasoning. I can totally see why this is at +5 insightful. Fuck slashdot.
Given that, at present, 'via the legal process' seems to consist of a variety of procedures that make getting a search warrant rubber-stamped by a handpicked sycophant look positively robust, I'm not sure how reassured I'd be even by 100% ironclad evidence that all data were divulged in accordance with 'legal process'.
Even aside from the high-volume shenanigans on the NSA side, whose legal justifications themselves are rather secretive, the good old 'National Security Letter' is a 'legal' process that essen
Time to reexamine this:
"associates in Germany at heise Security have now discovered that the Microsoft...Shortly after sending HTTPS URLs over the [skype] instant messaging service, those URLs receive an unannounced visit from Microsoft HQ in Redmond."
Microsoft claimed it was for malware checking, but it was noticeable it targeted Germany, I did a test on my skype (to UK) and received no visit. T
Microsoft is a business, they are in the game to make money. They also know that doing stupid shit like providing wholesale access to data/keys/exploits/whatever is bad for business.
So, Microsoft, as a business, probably would not have given anything without a court order.
That being said, a better guess would be that someone within MS, possibly high up in the chain of command would be the one providing the data. Again, a total guess, and I could be completely wrong.
Given the fees the telcos get for interception data, and given NSAs astronomical multi billion dollar budget I think its safe to assume Microsoft gets paid handsomely for PRISM interface usage and you are the product of Outlook.com and NSA is the customer.
Which makes sense if you think about it. You want to pump hidden subsidies into US online businesses because it's pretty much the only industry you have left. How would you do it? If you did it publicly then foreign countries would subsidize their online s
So, Microsoft, as a business, probably would not have given anything without a court order.
How does that actually improve the situation, since we now know (from the leaked secret order to Verizon) that these court orders can and will make demands such as "give us the entirety of your traffic for the next three months"?
And I'm not picking on Microsoft - this question stands to ALL of these US-based companies.
Unless, of course, they never anticipated a Snowden and figured nobody would ever know. Or perhaps they figured that whatever illegal benefit they were offered in return would bring enough profit to make up for any loss and then some.
All these companies are feigning outrage over these "requests" they get, when in reality I doubt the requests are ever used except in cases where the government needs evidence in court. The REAL data collection is done without Microsoft/Googles direct knowledge. The NSA surely has agents working on staff at every major tech company in the world with the sole goal of installing as many NSA backdoors as possible. The idea that the NSA has no respect what-so-ever of the American peoples privacy but at the same time wouldn't just take the same sort of data from a corporation is idiotic.
The problem with secret courts, secret executive orders and undisclosed legal reasoning is that even if Microsoft released some information as "transparency", can you really trust that they aren't holding something back or outright lying due to some other even more secret court order?
They were completely denying and fudging the question about Skype eavesdropping right up until the Snowden leaks. Then they did a complete 180 turn.So clearly they have no problem with obfuscating the discussion, why should we trust that any new information they provide is the whole truth and not some weasel legal loophole way of interpreting the facts? Kind of like how James Clapper weaseled and outright lied through his testimony to Congress. If these people are willing to lie to Congressmen and Senators, who the fuck are you?
I reckon Pandora's Box has been open and American technology companies will face an uphill, if not impossible, task to get anyone from the rest of the world to trust them again.
Give it 5-10 years.
You're remarkably optimistic. I give it two years, at the outside. It will persist through the next Congressional election cycle, just barely. After that, it will vanish.
And the usual 90+% of incumbents will be reelected, despite a last gasp effort of PAC attack ads bringing up the spying. (I won't call them SuperPACs. They won't be that well funded.)
Re-engineer Outlook and the back end services supporting it. Employ end-to-end encryption with private keys held only by the client. Microsoft's systems serve only to distribute public keys and store and forward encrypted content.
So when the NSA comes asking, Microsoft (or any other service provider) can honestly say "We can't decrypt that for you, signed warrant or not." The NSA can already scrape encrypted content off the backbone choke points, so bugging Microsoft for something they don't have would be
Something about dogs and fleas.
Fuck what the NSA tells you. 'No Such Agency' means they don't exist and their rules be damned. Gain the biggest share on the planet and grow a pair, and release the data, NSA be damned. Release it all. That sort of brutal honesty gets more respect from me than beating around the (George) bush, even if you were helping them spy on me.
Nondeterminism means never having to say you are wrong.

I think Sec101 and Apache , along with a couple others here get it.
Bucs may be running out of patience and move on to Plan B, especially if Jets wait until after the draft. There always could be a draft day trade, but I wouldn't count on it.
There are 2 sayings that come to mind here.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth and A bird in the hand.
Will be interesting seeing how this plays out.
have you ever been in the locker room to witness anything bad hes ever done?
rex ryan the current head coach put him on the pedastal hes on that and his play on the field.
jets fans dont appreciate good players. they somehow find a way to bash and hate them.
this reminds me of all those who called braylon edwards cancer when in reality he never was.
For once I'd love to see the JETS act like one of the better teams in the league and trade a player at the right moment.
The Jets should trade Revis because:
1) The JETS are in total rebuild mode and are in need of an injection of energy and youth. All the good organizations do this (Pats, Pitt, Giants, etc) why not us.
2) Revis is the epitome of what was wrong with Rex' fawning over players where it cost the JETS. What a message this would send to the rest of the team.
3) Revis held out twice, faked a headache in practice over his contract, and nursed a concussion in a bar drinking alcohol while his teammates lost in Pitt. All bad choices. Another great message this would send to the team that there is no place for nonsense like this.
I thought this was a done deal! Thats the way I read it on the scrolling update on NFL Network. So is this all hearsay or what?
you witnessed him drinking? reports came out no one witnessed him drinking.
you are digging for fault where it doesnt exist.
many players live a frivolous carefree lifestyle off the field. i only care about what they do on the field.
Yes, what championships are built on.
at what point do the bucs so "deal off" and sign 1 of themany cbs still out there.. Reading the article on nfl.com, and the comments.. The buck fans are all not in favor of even giving up 1st and 2nd next year..

I'm the sort of person who will never get ulcers. Why? Because I say exactly what I think. I'm the sort of person who might give other people ulcers.
Koch was Mayor when I first moved to New York in 1987. I still have a fond remembrance of his voice blasting from NY sanitation vehicles reminding people to obey alternate side street parking rules so the garbage could get picked up.
I was a little snarky in my initial assessment of the Mayor at that time. But as I grew to fit into my New York shoes I also grew to appreciate just how great he was. He was a political pragmatist who cared less about politics than he did about his City and his constituency. A constituency that had nothing to do with party lines and petty politics and everything to do with real, human people.
I wish there were more like him.

I always find it's very difficult to adjust similar co-transfected vs single transfected protein expression amount for co-ip several different constructs. (My boss's absolute requirement before actually doing co-IPs) like:
Protein A + vec
Protein B + vec
Protein C + vec
A+B (both upregulated)
A+C (both upregulated, but A has much more upregulated level than A+C and A alone)
So, the level of A will never be the same in all cases (A, A+B, A+C)!
One of my labmates suggests me to simply mix single protein-transfected HEK293 lysate.
Incubate the mixed lysates for 1hr and then add antibody to do Co-ip.
Do you guys consider it is cheating or an acceptable method? (in theory, I think it's acceptable...)
