On election night 2012 I was in DC doing the rounds of various media outlets. At one stop I found myself in a small cramped office of foreign journalists reporting to countries all over Europe and Asia, some as far as Korea. The conversations in the unventilated suite defaulted into election night chatter: "Two-seventy is impossible without Wisconsin." "Florida has 29 electrical votes, but their demographics are changing." "If Romney wins Ohio, he still needs Pennsylvania, but if Obama wins Ohio he doesn't need Pennsylvania."
At one point in the evening someone with a British accent turned to me and said: "Your elections are way too complicated."
It occurred to me that I was in a room full of people reporting to countries far older than ours, all with far (far) younger democracies. The U.S. is still a young country with the oldest constitution still in use. And this juxtaposition is made painfully apparent on Election Night.
The U.S. Constitution specifies an indirect election of the president. This was a compromise between Congress electing the executive office-holder and direct popular vote. A popular vote would mean the sparsely populated (think slave states) wouldn't get the same representation as all the white male land owners states. So the Electoral College was settled upon. Which is why today Alaska has three electoral votes even though its population is smaller than Staten Island's — it's because of slavery.
It's also why you've been dutifully voting since the second you turned 18 (provided you're under 54 years old) and you've never actually directly voted for the leader of the free world.
Does this now make sense some 200 years after ratification? Now that we no longer have a slave-based economy and the franchise has been extended to women, the answer is, "No." It now means Ohio with its 18 electoral votes gets to be the belle of the ball every four years and states like California and New York with their combined 84 get largely ignored by the two national candidates. It means your vote in Florida has more value than your cousin's vote in Wyoming.
But it really means our system is overly complicated, fragmented and largely viewed with suspicion by voters. Because the way we vote for a president is antiquated and convoluted it leads to distrust. Local lawmakers can disenfranchise voters in national elections as we saw with the arbitrary voter ID laws in battleground states. There were concerns (think hysteria) that voting machines owned by Mitt Romney's son in Ohio would deliver the election to the Republicans. The group Anonymous (or someone claiming to be Anonymous) took credit for thwarting Karl Rove's alleged attempt at stealing the election. Then on Fox News the panic was over voter fraud.
There were long lines, lost ballots and chaos on Election Day. Different voting precincts with different rules and sometimes different philosophies on who should cast their ballots we're highlighted in the national media. What it all leads to is a voting result which have a whisper of illegitimacy. There's a lingering doubt as to if the elections were fair and therefore the result valid. And it's partisan: The Left will say that of George Bush stole the election, the Right about Obama.
We could solve this issue by modernizing elections. Not only tossing out the Electoral College and letting Americans directly vote for a president, but making the requirements uniform (i.e. universal suffrage). This would make voting in Oregon just as relevant as a voting in Cuyahoga County.
A census is constitutionally required every ten years and we don't leave it up to each state to compile it. But we leave our national elections up to (in some cases) the county officials?! Federalize federal elections. We have national standards for schools and milk safety but we can't vote the same way in every state? Continued...
We can change this. And there's no better time than three years and eleven months before the next presidential election begins.

From the very beginning of St. John's Gospel, it is made clear that Jesus' life was to testify to the Truth. Jesus said, "For this was I born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the Truth." As Christians, who dare to call ourselves followers of Christ the King, we are called to imitate and follow Him the Way, the Truth and the Light! We all seem to have a fear of the dark. This must have been a great realization of the Lord for the first words of creation in the Book of Genesis are "Let there be light." Life is like a windswept tightrope. We need to do our best be open to the truth and light of others and work with God's grace or it is all over! As we come to the end of a Church Year, we are challenged in the final liturgical week to use part of the time of these seven days to serve the Lord and His Kingdom not as slaves but as people in love with Jesus, Our King. Don't confuse what can't be done with what hasn't been done and let the truth and light of grace and possible talent be used in God's Name.
What better way to finish this 11th month of the year and to begin a new Church Year with the First Sunday of Advent next week then with opening our minds and hearts to the positive light of faith. This is a time to prepare to let an authentic and renewed conversion to the Lord to happen within us. Negativity has enormous power and this is the year to be positive in the light and love of Jesus Christ. Psychologists state that it takes twenty compliments to offset one negative criticism. It is shown that we best remember even negative minor happenings better then positive ones. We can remember poor grades in math in high school geometry better than the positive compliments of yesterday! Negativity even about the future can equally impact us. We can dread things that may never happen. Psychologists say that over ninety percent of what we worry about never happens. So why waste energy on the windswept tightrope of fear? We can choose our focus and it can make all the difference in the world but it is our choice to use, live and allow the light and truth of Jesus to guide us. Christ is to be our King and Leader, not just in word but in the choices for our actions.
The door of faith is always open for us from the time of our baptism through to our own commitment at Confirmation. Each Easter, as we renew our baptismal promises we are challenged in that year to follow Jesus; the Way, the Truth and the Light. It is not by coincidence that a sinning person will stop praying and living by faith and a praying faith person will stop sinning!
None of us are perfect but all of us contain some of the light and truth of the Lord. Perhaps we need to lower our expectations, chill out, relax, go for a walk and allow the light of the Lord to enter in! Find room for faith and hope and fan the flames of these two by making choices and living the light, love and truth of the Lord each day this final week of the Church Year.

"We're doomed, as they say," said fisherman Dennis Robillard, whose voice wavered as he acknowledged that his boat, the Julie Ann II, is now up for sale.
"I'm getting out. It just doesn't make any sense to me anymore."
The council also voted to cut 55% of cod catch rates in Georges Bank, an expansive area near Cape Cod, which was named by a 17th century British explorer after discovering an abundance of the ground fish.
If approved by the Commerce Department, fishermen catch rates will drop to about 3,550 metric tons of cod in the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank.
A decade ago, they could net around 20,000.
The fish population
Most analysts agree that cod stocks today are no where near healthy numbers, though some fishermen say they've netted more cod recently than in the past. Still, the Gulf of Maine has hit only about 18% of target levels, while Georges Bank fared far worse at around 7%, according to NOAA.
A government survey found that Gulf of Maine cod, considered a top earner, were so depleted that even if the fishing industry were to shut down completely, it would still not recover to the levels mandated by federal law by 2014.
And yet, while the stocks haven't replenished fast enough, they have come back, according to two decades worth of NOAA data tables.
"It's more of a management crisis," said Steven Cadrin, a former NOAA scientist and faculty member at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.

"Sykes cottages were very professional. Really pleased with all
aspects. We would definitely use this company again."
Mr Breslin, Stamford, Lincolnshire, June 2013
First time booking with Sykes, very simply done all online.
Mrs Mark, Northampton, Northamptonshire, May 2013
Just show me Luxury Yorkshire Cottages
Whether you fancy a break in the Dales, the Moors or along the
Dinosaur Coast, our luxury cottages in Yorkshire allow you to be
indulgently different.
Expect top-class surroundings - perhaps a pretty little house in
a sleepy hamlet, or a fine stone residence in manicured grounds.
And though you may simply want to relax at your luxury cottage in
Yorkshire, there are lots of treats in store.
Connoisseurs of good food will find amazing local delicacies in
gourmet corner shops, local creameries, award-winning tearooms and
real ale pubs - even Michelin-starred restaurants if you fancy
splashing out.
Enjoy a morning's cycle or ramble and then soothe any
stretched muscles with top-to-toe pampering at a fabulous day spa.
Do something daring and glide across the Moors or Dales - after
that initial tummy-tingling swoop, you'll fly like a bird
engine-free over the most mesmerising landscapes.
If you prefer to stay on terra firma, explore Yorkshire's
spectacular countryside from behind the wheel of a classic car.
With a hamper of Champagne and strawberries, it's the perfect
way to relish those timeless views.
What else? Shopping, historic sites, theme parks, antique fairs,
food and drink festivals, cathedral concerts - even fossil hunting
at the coast.
One thing's certain...a luxury cottage holiday in Yorkshire
will make a lasting impression!

3. | Eddie Guerrero | ||
The current WWE heavyweight champion (aka the "Smackdown" champion), and probably the best all around wrestler in the company today. Eddie can hold his own with the likes of Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle in terms of technical wrestling, and is just as good a high flyer as RVD. Furthermore, he is one of the most charismatic wrestlers on the mic. In fact, I think he's the best talker working full time that WWE has. He uses the frog splash as a finisher, and is known to lie, cheat, and steal his way to some of the most creative victories in recent memory (see his Wrestlmania XX victory over Kurt Angle). He's overcome drug addiction and being an undersized wrestler in a company known for pushing giants, and I'm extremely happy for him. Eddie Guerrero could carry a broomstick to a good match.
1. | Eddie Guerrero | ||
Rest In Peace : 1967 - 2005 (13.11.05)
Thanks for the great times! Always entertaining to watch. We will miss the low riders. WWE is deeply saddened by the news that Eddie Guerrero has passed away. He was found dead Sunday morning in his hotel room in Minneapolis. Eddie is survived by his wife Vickie and daughters Shaul, 14, Sherilyn, 9, and Kaylie Marie, 3. From his previous drug abuse causes to the heart have been taken toll on, even though he was drug free for the last for years. He Will be Missed very much! Eddie Guerrero One of the best wrestlers and most characteristic of all time.
2. | Eddie Guerrero | ||
One of the most talented men to step foot in a wrestling ring. His charisma, energy and will to compete was unmatched by any superstar living today or in the past. He was a unique individual in the world of Professional Wrestling and will be missed by fans and wrestlers world-wide. A Good man both on and off the stage/mat, he is one of the good men you strive to be. R.I.P Eddie Guerrero 1967 - 2005
Viva La Raza |
4. | Eddie Guerrero | ||
Passed away on November 13, 2005 at the age of 38. For many people, he will go down as one of the greatest performers to ever step into a wrestling ring. Eddie Guerrero was a great talker and a great wrestler who was taken from us much too soon. Already a one time WWE Champion, Guerrero was scheduled to win the World Heavyweight Championship on Smackdown this week. That show was to be taped on November 13, the day of his death.
Aside from being a great wrestler, he was a husband and a father. He also overcame a battle with alcohol and drug addiction. This month marked four years of sobriety for him. Eddie Guerrero was a hero to the Latino community and he was the only Latin star to win a top heavyweight title in a major US wrestling company. Millions of wrestling fans all over the world will miss Eddie Guerrero. He was one of a kind.
5. | Eddie Guerrero | ||
a top performer in the WWE who recently passed away. Held many tiles including the WWE Title, WWE Tag Titles, WWE US Title, WWE IC Title, WWE European Title, WCW US Title, WCW Cruiserweight Title, ECW TV Title to name a few. Great technical wrestler but could also 'fly' when needed to. Finisher is the Frog Splash which was used to remember his deceased tag partner Art Barr. Overcame drug addiction and alcoholism to rise to the top of the mountain in the WWE. Entertained many WWE fans by lying, cheating and stealing his way to victory. celebrated being 4 years sober on Saturday 12th November 2005. Died Sunday 13th November 2005 due to a heart failure. WIll be greatly missed by every wrestling fan.
RIP Eddie Guerrero 1967-2005 NashMark doesn't know what he's talking about calling Eddie a Vanilla Midget, unlike Kevin Nash, Eddie Guerrero could have a decent match with anyone.

Chevy hopes to give Prius the MPG smackdown
GM is saying that its new Chevy Volt — expected to hit showroom floors sometime late in 2010 — will get a gazillion miles per gallon. Well, not a gazillion… but far more than any other hybrid is claiming: 230 mpg.
This would make the Volt almost five times more fuel efficient than the Prius, which claims 48 mpg and is becoming more common in Boulder than even prairie dogs, Crocs and cruiser bikes. But there's a catch. It'll cost you nearly twice as much to buy a Volt than a Prius. Read more about the Volt here or after the jump.
In Boulder, residents — and increasingly the government — are looking to take the Priuses they already own to the next level, converting the cars to plug-ins that one day may be able to feed electricity back to the grid.
Boulder County, the city of Boulder and the University of Colorado are all collaborating with Xcel Energy on one of the first large-scale tests of vehicle-to-grid technology. Just recently, big yellow plugs have sprouted from the northwest end of the parking lot behind the county courthouse, and you can see a couple of converted Priuses plugged into the wall when they're not being driven.
Read more about the local vehicle-to-grid tests on the Daily Camera's Web site here and here. Or check out a story on Hybrids Plus, a Boulder-based company that converts standard hybrid cars to plug-ins, here.

We know that children are a blessing from heaven and parents in Israel are fully aware of this. They have so much love for their children, and you can see it all over Israel; mothers and fathers, absorbed in their children. Like all loving parents, they want the best for their children: education, opportunities, and of course, health and well-being.
There are lots of large families in Israel, and many of these families cannot afford to meet their children's basic needs. A staggering 47% of families in Israel with four or more children experience food insecurity.
This poverty affects the religious community in Israel the most, many of whom have very large families. Jerusalem, one of Israel's most religious cities, has the highest poverty rate.
Especially alarming is that child poverty is on the rise, as now 36% of children live below the poverty line. Together we can work towards putting an end to child poverty in Israel.
Just by giving $15 you are already making a priceless contribution!
* All this summer, Israel Today will match your donation, providing a "double blessing" to those who need it most
Many families in Israel are distressed as they hear of new government plans to raise taxes, introduce taxes on fruits and vegetables, and cut funding on child payments. The government hopes that tightening spending will keep the deficit under control, despite global recession.
Poverty among the youngest and the weakest in our nation has reached a shockingly high rate. The rate of poor children in Israel has risen more than 50% since 1998 and continues to increase.
Young engineers in Israel are making their way in the world, providing innovative solutions to improve quality of life for the elderly.

Beginning with revenue collections for July 2012, the monthly Revenue Collections report will use an updated layout. Specifically, the Comparative Statement of Collected Revenues and the Summary of Collections have been revised to list the taxes in a more user-friendly sequence. Generally, related taxes are grouped (e.g., gasoline and motor vehicle fuel), and taxes with greater collections appear higher on the list (e.g., sales and use tax).
Please note that no changes have been made to what is included within each category of tax. For example, the category labeled "Privilege" still includes exactly the same taxes as before. Also, absolutely no changes have been made to any account codes associated with any tax. The only modification is to present the taxes in a more logical order on the page.

And a download link to obtain your very own TF2 Applejack!
Facepunch Applejack
As a regular TF2, it looks very odd.
I don't think this is a good skin in my opinion.
APPLEJACK! That's the only thing I can say to express something I can't simply put into words.
Welp, if they can make skins for the rest of the mane cast and then tape an epic match involving all of them, I think it'd be safe to call it the best thing ever.
I play TF2 regularly, and this would be terrifying to see through the sniper scope...
I can't bring myself to download any model that doesn't include a viewmodel as well. Pretty damn good all things considered though.
10 bits says Pinkie is a Pyro if someone where to make a model of her in the game.
How do you tell which team she's on? I mean, I didn't saw any noticeable colour differentiation there.
This... is quite close to Uncanny valley for my taste. Secondin' lovecraft. scare the narf out of me looking through sniper scope.
It's like something took Applejack's skin and is wearing it like a coat
Pinkie what have you done
Think plastic figurine suit, like the serve bot head from the dead rising games.
could you please share the title then? i kinda like it
It kind of makes sense after you see this video.
I think Rated-T for light swearing.
Would be a mission to recreate all the animations for a class as 4-legged pony animations.
this is the music that plays in the vid:
Uncanny valley to the max, let alone how incomplete it is... :<
I can't download this. I just can't.
I would never be able to have the heart to kill Applejack =(
I'd rather keep the default skins for now, just in case if someone happens to be looking over my shoulder.
Needs to change eyes from being part of the head to having eye animations. Although I'm not sure how you would do that.
as if listening to that song at least twice each commercial break (and anything from 12 to 75 other times a day just randomly walking downtown) wasn't enough...
hell, I'd love my local druglords forever if they used their magical persuasive methods to "uplift" anyone and everyone responsible for saturating Mexico whit that anoying 5 second loop of "We no speak americano"
Until a Rainbow Dash Scout is created and published, the only class I'll ever be is Applejack.
Anyway, I'm just gonna go ahead and correlate the ponies with TF2 classes for no reason other than taking up space.
Applejack = Engie (southern accents)
Rainbow Dash = Scout (Speed)
Pinkie Pie** = Heavy (meh)
Nurse Pony** = Medic (meh)
Fluttershy = Sniper (either her or Rarity)
Derpy = Pyro (No reason, Derpy is a requirement)
Rarity = Spy (She's into dressing up, I guess)
Trixie = Demo (look at soldier)
Twilight = Soldier (look at demo)
**If not Pinkie/Nurse, then Lyra/Bon-Bon for the heavy and medic.
This looks really good, the only problem I have is, HOW WILL I KNOW WHAT TEAM IT'S ON? Just by looking, I can't see any distinguishable difference, so I assume in the heat of battle I would just try to kill all the Applejacks.
inb4 someone goes and /r/ a pony-version of "Destroy All Humans" and replaces it with "Befriend All Ponies"
According to some drawings, it's like this:
Applejack: Engi
RD: Scout (of course)
Pinkie: Pyro
Fluttershy: Medic
Twilight: Sniper
Rarity: Spy
Zecora: Demo
Big Mac: Heavy
Spike: Soldier
And... Celestia or Luna as the Announcer?
I can already hear Celestia saying "...my dearest student, Twilight Sparkle... OUR CONTROL POINT IS BEING CAPTURED"
Absolute nightmare fuel. I'll stick with my Rainbow Dash Scattergun, thank you very much.
I wasn't basing them off those drawings. Rather, I was trying to make connections between MLP and TF2 lore. The War! update, primarily. After doing that and the obvious ones, all that was left just filling in the blanks, even when they probably wouldn't fit.
But yes, Celestia = Announcer.
I... dont know how to use the skin, i go to my Tf2 folder but then what?
i may be good at tf2, but i suck at using mods.
Shouldn't Derpy be the demoman? (because that would be hilarious)
Want to see a full mod sometime. With First person views... and maybe sound clips from the show as the voice overs or something...
Yeah, but try to change it to fit, and you'll get banned from secure servers before you can say "friendship is magic".
What anon said, and probably the TF2 thread on the MSPA forums.
I've just gotten permission to teamskin this. Will update on the ponychan thread with details.
I'm impressed that this was done, but that is what nightmares are made of.
I think I have a good idea for em all...
Big Mac: Heavy (His name has "Big" in it, why not?)
Rainbow Dash: Scout (Obligatory)
Pinkie Pie: Pyro (Also obligatory... They both nuts)
Twilight: Sniper (From the pic. Is nice)
Zecora: Demoman (Only "black" pony. Plus would be awesome with eyelander. CRAZY ZEBRA WITH A SWORD)
Fluttershy: Medic (Pic AND it's her personality)
Rarity: Spy (Pic and cuz the spy is stylin')
Derpy: Soldier (From a comic, and because they both crazy... In some way. Plus ROCKET JUMP)
Would need first personish view of them too... Which (visually speaking) wouldn't be hard... Just make all the same and recolour hoofs.
I swear to god, if someone manages this (Or just manages to MAKE more skins) I would have to love you.
And ever.
hot damn this is cool and at the same time scary as heck 0_o
Big Mac - Heavy
RD - Scout
Twilight - Sniper
Zecora - Demoman
Fluttershy - Medic
Spike - Soldier
Rarity - Spy
Pinkie Pyro
Get it done.
We need more creators! The Applejack skin simply isn't enough! I can't create them myself but I long to run around as Rainbow Dash while playing as scout, as well as all the other ponies.

RMU Student-Athlete of the Week (4/18/12)
Earning the latest RMU Female Student-Athlete of the Week of the 2012 spring campaign is sophomore Carolina Mourao-Teixeira of the tennis squad. A native of Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, Mourao-Teixeira improved to a perfect 5-0 in singles play against Northeast Conference foes this season with a pair of victories at the No. 1 flight last weekend. Mourao-Teixeira opened the weekend with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Nicole Lippens of Monmouth, then posted a 6-1, 6-2 victory over Ewa Opala of St. Francis (N.Y.) the next afternoon. Thanks to the pair of victories, Mourao-Teixeira improved to 11-8 on the 2011-12 in singles action, all of which have come at the No. 1 flight. Her 11 wins are the most by a Colonial at the flight since former Colonial Nora Peters (1997-2001) finished 17-5 during the 1999-2000 season.

Facebook 'Friend' or Foreign 'Spy'
The internet and the current phenomenon of social media has changed the way we communicate, do business and even socialize, it is a paradigm shift that society has embraced at such speed and ease that rarely a moment goes by in a civilised nation where such technology has not impacted each and every person.
The way in which social media flourishes is that it requires engagement and 'engagement' is encouraged by 'sharing', and 'sharing' comes in various forms whether it be via Facebook's or LinkedIn 'Likes' or actual 'sharing' buttons, to sharing the mobile App you have downloaded via a 'share' button.
Sharing introduces a whole new realm to how we perceive trust. Studies have shown that the majority of the figures below are a result of people 'sharing'.
General Internet statistics 2012
- In one day on the Internet:
- Enough information is consumed to fill 168 million DVDs
- 294 billion emails are sent
- 2 million blog posts are written (enough posts to fill TIME magazine for 770 million years)
- 172 million people visit Facebook
- 40 million visit Twitter
- 22 million visit LinkedIn
- 20 million visit Google+
- 17 million visit Pinterest
- 4.7 billion minutes are spent on Facebook
- 532 million statuses are updated
- 250 million photos are uploaded
- 22 million hours of tv and movies are watched on Netflix
- 864,000 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube
- More than 35 million apps are downloaded
- More iPhones are sold than people are born
As we know 'sharing' brings trust, loyalty and generally out of this comes relationship development, whether personal or professional and in turn it is here vulnerabilities may emerge.
Recently the media has been awash with not only industrial cyber espionage reports but of a major issue facing the internet community and that is 'country sanctioned' cyber espionage and or attacks.
History may one day reveal that as the United States fretted over the possibility of a "cyber Pearl Harbor" – a catastrophic attack that would take down electrical grids – its economic lifeblood was being slowly drained away by a massive hacking enterprise located in the People's Republic of China. (Magnuson, 2012)
Cyber Command Commander Army Gen. Keith Alexander last year called the cyber-espionage being conducted against U.S. companies the largest transfer of intellectual property from one nation to another in the history of the world. (Magnuson, 2012)
Eric Rosenbach, deputy assistant secretary of defense for cyber policy, said the nation is not as focused on intellectual property theft as it should be. A catastrophic cyber war is important to prepare for, but an unlikely scenario. Stealing data important to the nation's economic security, meanwhile, is occurring here and now. (Magnuson, 2012)
We all have seen them on our travels or have had friends bring back 'knock offs' from trips to Asia, watches, handbags, sunglasses, fashion items even IPHONEs and computer software. All produced with such high quality similarities that it is hard at times to distinguish the 'fake' from the real item.
The proliferation of the internet and its related activity has allowed for 'copying' to occur at a rate that cannot be controlled or monitored. The aforementioned figures identify the staggering internet traffic and streaming that is taking place on any given day.
Experts describe a large, technologically advanced and well organized enterprise coming out of China that is going after businesses large and small. Any firm that has a trade secret, or could be used as a stepping stone to a larger company, is a potential target. Intellectual property theft has the potential to erode a company's profits or even bankrupt it. There is no magical software that can stop every intrusion attempt, but even companies with few resources can take steps to mitigate the risk, experts told National Defense. (Magnuson, 2012)
To thwart the Chinese cyber-espionage enterprise, it is important to characterize it. In the world of network security, it was once called the "advanced persistent threat." But government officials have done away with using that euphemism: it's China, they now say. The October 201 1 "Foreign Spies Stealing U.S. Economic Secrets in Cyberspace" report, produced by the FBI's office of national counterintelligence executive, acknowledged that the attacks came from China, but stopped short of blaming the Chinese government, which routinely denies involvement. (Magnuson, 2012)
Jason Lewis, chief technology officer of Looking Glass Cyber Solutions, said, "In general, when you have a situation where the state runs everything, you have to assume that the state is involved in any enterprise."
Phishing Attacks
In country "scouts" doing the reconnaissance are increasingly using social media websites to gather personal information to use in phishing attacks, said Dave Papas, chief operating officer of Cyveillance, a subsidiary of QinetiQ North America that provides security for Fortune 500 companies. (Magnuson, 2012)
Friends, hometowns, hobbies, anything that can be placed in the email to make the target believe it is a legitimate message, can be used and every piece of information is a means to an end.
It was recently reported in the Australian Financial Review that an "…Australian chief executive was travelling in China recently when he received a curious email from his adult daughter asking if "Daddy" was having a good time. But it wasn't his daughter who had sent the email…" (Grigg, 2013) It was a 'phishing' attack to penetrate the chief executives lap top and such a line in the email idicates the logistical efforts of a well resourced and technologically advanced team to not only hack into the executives daughters email but to establish his travel movements and the like. Had it not been for the executive being alert and realising that his daughter had not called him 'daddy' for a long time, the attempt by the perpetrators failed on this occasion.
This attack is a clear example of an attack that attempts to infiltrate a network in the form of an phishing email, a well-crafted letter that seemingly comes from a friend or business associate. This tactic has not changed in years, but is growing more sophisticated and frequent. Why? Phishing attacks work and, "it is a lot easier to control humans than the technology," said Rick Doten, vice president of cybersecurity for DMI, a firm that does work for the U.S. government. (Magnussen, 2012)
This example clearly, supports that we must not count on it being written in anguished English like the common scam letters purportedly originating from Nigerian princesses as it is common place now that native speakers of English are helping compose the phony emails.
Once an attachment or a link to a fake website is opened, specialists in moving around a network without being detected take over and probe for other vulnerabilities. This may mean taking over an email account in order to generate more trusted, fake emails as most likely would have bene the case with the example identified in the Australian Financial Review.
It is well founded that smaller companies, particularly in the defense industrial base, may be used to go after bigger companies – big prime contractors – higher in the food chain. Once the cyberspies have located the information they want, another team takes over to exflltrate it. It is ideally ferreted away in normal traffic without being detected. (Magnussen, 2012)
Unit 61398
Open source defence journals have reported the following:
- A US company has identified an organisation in China that it says is responsible for stealing hundreds of terabytes of data from US government organisations and companies
- According to the company, the organisation receives direct funding from the Chinese government through a PLA department called Unit 61398
China is conducting a campaign of sustained and persistent state-sponsored hacking by an organisation referred to as Advanced Persistent Threat 1 (APT1), according to a report from US cyber security company Mandiant that was released on 18 February.
The report, entitled 'APT1: Exposing One of China's Cyber Espionage Units', details wide-ranging hacking activities that Mandiant has traced back to China. It focuses on a particular series of cyber security breaches and intrusions carried out against at least 141 victims from 2006, all of which Mandiant has attributed specifically to APT1. According to the report, "hundreds of terabytes" of data have been stolen in these attacks.
Mandiant concludes that APT1 is able to carry out such sustained and extensive hacking activities because it receives direct government backing. It names the 2nd Bureau of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) General Staff Department's 3rd Department, or Unit 61398, as the organisation behind this activity. This group is also informally referred to as Comment Crew or Comment Group. Mandiant states the allegations are based on its own forensic analysis of similarities in the characteristics and geographical sources of hacking activity.
Comment Crew's activities were traced to the Pudong New Area of Shanghai, where Unit 61398 is believed to engage in computer network operations. Mandiant said Unit 61398 is staffed by "hundreds, if not thousands" of people that have undergone cyber training and are proficient English speakers. Of the victims tracked in the Mandiant report, 87% are headquartered in countries where English is the native language.
Andrew Beckett, head of cyber security consulting at Cassidian, told IHS Jane's that "the Mandiant report provides no surprise to those involved in cyber security and this should provide a wake-up call to industry and governments. Comment Crew are one of many groups Cassidian know of that are operating in this area".
China's Ministry of National Defence rejected Mandiant's findings. "The Chinese military has never supported any kinds of hacker activities, so saying that the Chinese military is involved in internet attacks is neither professional nor consistent with the facts," it said in a statement released on 19 February.
However, I recall from one of my lectures in my Masters of National Security, from American Military University that China allegedly has in excess of 50,000 persons engaged in 'internet espionage at any one time.
So, next time you get that 'friend' request or you 'like' or 'fan' a page in Facebook or in any other form of social media or email, always remember that 'friend' or 'like' could be just be a foreign spy……

Ford to skipper Scots
25 Jan 2012
Hooker Ross Ford has been handed the Scotland captaincy for next week's Six Nations match against England.
Coach Andy Robinson had identified Kelly Brown as the man to lead the Scots, but the loose forward was injured recently in a European Cup match. The responsibility will now fall to Ford.
'It's a massive honour and privilege to captain your country,' said Ford. 'I'm really grateful to be given this chance to captain a team of so much potential.
'For me, the big thing is leading from the front and actually showing a good example to the boys as well as backing it up with words.'

25 Jan 2012, 08:54 amSo will he be the captain for the whole six nations? When is Kelly Brown expected back?
25 Jan 2012, 10:02 am@Sasuke-1:
Brown is out for the whole 6N.
Ford is a good choice I reckon.
Have your say

Guys, I finally got the 5'8. The guy at the shop is a good friend and gave the chance of riding it and if it feels too big I'll get the 5'6.
Hey guys, I' got the H3 Nexus in small to try it as a thruster. Whatare your thoughts on this?

Yeah they might be a little small for you and I think the wide tail on the p-nator lends itself better to a quad set up. But it is always a bit of experimentation until you find the fins and set up that suit you best.
Jesus is coming, look busy!
Moving forward or just spinning faster?

I 'd like to add my voice to the posts recommending the Futures Scimitar fronts w/ the Controller rears as a quad setup on the PN.
Plenty enough drive, and not too 'tracky' to really turn - the best so far!
Hi i'm brand new on this forum, and looks for advices on potatonator for small waves (1' to 4' ) mushy with summer onshore winds in France.
I'm 5'11 and 205, my daily driver is a dominator style 6'7 x 21 x2.75 quad that must be around 4é or 43 L.
That board should make me surf in small gutless mushy surf but be able to do its job in better surf as well.
Is the potatonator ok or should I go towards a baked potato?

text: "In Outliers, [Martin] Gladwell (The Tipping Point) once again proves masterful in a genre he essentially pioneeredthe book that illuminates secret patterns behind everyday phenomena.... [He] begins with a provocative look at why certain five-year-old boys enjoy an advantage in ice hockey [among them, January birthdays], and how these advantages accumulate over time. We learn what Bill Gates, the Beatles and Mozart had in common: along with talent and ambition, each enjoyed an unusual opportunity to intensively cultivate a skill that allowed them to rise above their peers. A detailed investigation of the unique culture and skills of Eastern European Jewish immigrants persuasively explains their rise in 20th-century New York, first in the garment trade and then in the legal profession.... Gladwell tears down the myth of individual merit to explore how culture, circumstance, timing, birth and luck account for successand how historical legacies can hold others back despite ample individual gifts."Publishers Weekly

According to the report:
Christopher Robert Graham Jr., 20, of 112 Ashland Park Blvd., fled on foot after police approached him. Officers caught him behind 2115 Shorter Ave. after a short chase.
A search uncovered several types of pills and suspected marijuana. He was originally thought to be involved with an earlier incident where several suspects fled from police, but he was cleared of those suspicions.
Graham was charged with felony counts of possession of a Schedule IV controlled substance and possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. He was also charged with misdemeanor counts of possession of less than an ounce of marijuana, willful obstruction of law enforcement officers and drugs not in the original container.
Graham remained in jail Saturday night without bond.

I am an avid hiker/climber. I love this pack. The only thing is that it is meant for either extended trips or serious gear hogs. I happen to be a little of both so its ideal. I have never used anything but Gregory, and it shall stay that way. I have had this pack for almost 10 years and its still going strong.

We love to see all the great things people have to say about JolieMD and we were most pleasantly surprised by the review of beauty blogger, Cailin at Beautybunny.com:
"This line's promises are as wide-ranging as the Baby Quasar: it claims to diminish wrinkles, even pigmentation, and reduce acne while calming the triggers of new discoloration including inflammation and sun damage. But does it actually live up to the hype?
I can't speak for anyone else's experience, but in my opinion, the answer is a resounding yes. I've been more impressed by this skincare line than any other in recent history. When the Softening Serum quickly seeped into my skin, I knew I was dealing with quality goods. And I love the Enlightening Lotion – it feels fantastic to apply and the scent is subtle and pleasant.
As results go, JolieMD is unmatched in my skincare experience: I've been using the product for about four months now, and I've definitely seen improvements in my skin. My neck feels softer, my undereye circles are lighter, and the breakouts and discoloration I often got on my nose and chin have all but disappeared."

Rolex Farr 40 World Championship - Set for fresh water battle + Video
'Ambiance at the Chicago Yacht Club'
© Rolex/ Kurt Arrigo
In the time since the launch of the first Farr 40 in 1997, this high-octane grand-prix class has grown to 160 boats sailed in twenty countries. The well-organized class is run like a business, and the ensuing international competition has led the fleet around the globe to race in many of the sailing world's most iconic venues: San Francisco, Miami, Porto Cervo, Newport and Sydney.
From September 17-20, 2012, the 40' high-performance one-design yachts will contest the Rolex Farr 40 World Championship in Chicago, notable as an international hub for finance, commerce, industry, telecommunications and transportation. The 20 yachts, representing eight nations (Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Monaco, Turkey and the U.S.A.), will compete on fast-paced and technically demanding courses, with the first starting signal scheduled to be given daily at 11:00 a.m.
Ambiance, Chicago Yacht Club - 2012 Rolex Farr 40 World Championship -

This marriage of business and sport extends from the class organization to the collaboration between the amateur owners and their semi-professional crew that more often than not includes a world-renowned tactician who brings his particular expertise to the contest. The tacticians competing in Chicago boast impressive credentials: no less than seven are Olympians, while at least that many are world champions in other classes.
Bill Hardesty (San Diego, Calif.), the 2011 Etchells World Champion and winner of the 2011 Rolex Yachtsman of the Year Award, is the tactician aboard Flash Gordon 6 whose owner, Chicago architect Helmut Jahn, was the primary force behind the 15th edition of the world championships being held for the first time on Lake Michigan.
'The Farr 40 is one of the best one design classes in the world,' said Hardesty who explained that sailing on Lake Michigan will be different than at other venues. 'In fresh water, believe it or not, the boat actually feels a little bit different and we've made a few small changes with the instruments. But even bigger, way more weather patterns come through and the wind is all dependent on what the weather system is at the time. Here, anything can happen on any day and so you have to be prepared for whatever you get thrown.'
Rolex Farr 40 World Championship 2012, Chicago Yacht Club -
© Rolex- Kurt
Hardesty also detailed the dynamic with an amateur helmsman and primarily amateur crew which create a situation where the racing needs to be fun for everybody. 'We really have to, as tacticians, anticipate what the situation is going to bring. It takes a while to get used to what the particular helmsman has…everybody has habits, and as the professional on these boats that's our job to know the moves, anticipate what's going to happen and make the best of it.
'One of the best strategies at these regattas is to come out aggressive in the beginning and taper it as the regatta goes along. Teams are less apt to go for the pin – a high risk start – in the beginning. As the regatta starts getting going, teams that are in the back of the fleet they'll go for it at all costs and it'll be life or death. And you sometimes don't want to take that chance; if you need to, and it's a must-win, you roll the dice and see what you can do.'

Dalai Lama Urges Inner Peace to End Conflict
ITHACA, N.Y., Oct. 9, 2007 (AP) -- Achieving global peace must begin with each person attaining an inner peace first, the Dalai Lama told a capacity audience at New York's Cornell University Tuesday.
"It is impossible to achieve inner peace when you are full of hate, suspicion and fear," the Buddhist spiritual leader told 5,500 people who packed Barton Hall for the first of his three public appearances during a two-day visit to Ithaca.
Religious Freedom 'Inviolable,' Pope Says
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, Sept. 21, 2007 (Combined News Services) -- Religious freedom, including "the right to change religion," is a fundamental right rooted in every person's dignity, Pope Benedict XVI said in Italy Friday.
Every society must defend religious freedom as "a fundamental, irrepressible, inalienable and inviolable right rooted in the dignity of every human being," the pope said.
"The exercise of this freedom also includes the right to change religion, which should be guaranteed not only legally, but also in daily practice," he said.
Bin Laden Video Contrary to Mohammed's Unifying Teachings, Group Says
BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 8, 2007 (UPI) -- Osama bin Laden's latest video spreads a divisive message "contrary to Mohammed's teachings of human unity," a U.S.-based global spiritual group said Saturday.
The 26-minute tape, which surfaced Friday, calls on the "people of America" to "embrace Islam," which bin Laden claims is "the true religion."
Clergy Ban Yoga Class as 'Un-Christian'
TAUNTON, England (ReligionAndSpirituality.com) Aug. 31, 2007 -- Two clerics in southwest England banned a yoga instructor from using their churches for her children's classes because they said yoga was "un-Christian."
The Rev. Simon Farrar of Silver Street Baptist Church and the Rev. Tim Jones of the Anglican St. James Church, both in Taunton, Somerset, banned Louise Woodcock, with Jones saying "any alternative philosophies or beliefs" were "a sham" and "false."
Spiritual Group Says All Paths Lead to God
BOULDER, Colo., July 11, 2007 (UPI) -- A small U.S.-based spiritual movement Wednesday panned Pope Benedict XVI's proclamation of Roman Catholicism as the only true path to salvation.
"There are many paths to God, and God denies no one who takes a path with humility and sincerity," said Steve Farrell, worldwide coordinating director for the Humanity's Team organization in Boulder, Colorado.
"No one's way is better than any other's. It is merely another way," he said.
Global Council Meeting 2007
Humanity's Team completed its annual Global Council (GC) meeting in late June 2007. The meeting was hosted by the Portuguese Humanity's Team and took place in Estoril, Portugal. Representatives from over 20 countries participated in the week long program of sharing individual country accomplishments, new ideas and a re-endorsement of current New Spirituality initiatives.
The next Global Council meeting will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina in May 2008, marking the first time a southern hemisphere country has provided the Humanity's Team Global Council meeting venue.
