Blizzard Sued For Trying To Make Accounts More Secure
from the oh-come-on dept
Defendants' acts have not only harmed Plaintiffs and Class members by subjecting their Private Information to hackers, they have harmed Plaintiffs and Class members by devaluing their video games -- purchased from Defendants under certain assurances of security -- by adding elements of risk to each and every act of playing said games.Yeah, notice how they gloss over the fact that the system is free for anyone with a smartphone? And let's not even get into the fact that no system can be perfectly secure and, eventually, every system is going to get hacked. Just being hacked doesn't make you negligent. And, as we've seen, courts have time and time again refused to find any legal claims against sites that are hacked unless actual harm is shown to the users. The idea that providing two-factor authentication -- and charging the basic cost of the fob for the few folks who don't have a smartphone -- is some sort of sneaky business practice is just ridiculous.
Moreover, rather than shouldering the burden of adopting sufficient security measures to prevent these repeated hacks and to protect the Private Information of their customers, Defendants instead have informed their customers, after the point of sale, that they must purchase additional security products in order to ensure the sanctity of their Private Information. These additional, post-purchase costs for security products -- which Defendants assert are the only measures that may be taken to ensure something even approximating account security when playing their video games -- were not disclosed to Plaintiffs and Class members prior to the purchase of Defendants' products.
Blizzard has hit back and slammed the lawsuit as being based on "patently false information."
The suit's claim that we didn't properly notify players regarding the August 2012 security breach is not true. Not only did Blizzard act quickly to provide information to the public about the situation, we explained the actions we were taking and let players know how the incident affected them, including the fact that no names, credit card numbers, or other sensitive financial information was disclosed. You can read our letter to players and a comprehensive FAQ related to the situation on our website.Hopefully the court understands just how ridiculous this case is and dumps it quickly.
The suit also claims that the Battle.net Authenticator is required in order to maintain a minimal level of security on the player's Battle.net account information that's stored on Blizzard's network systems. This claim is also completely untrue and apparently based on a misunderstanding of the Authenticator's purpose. The Battle.net Authenticator is an optional tool that players can use to further protect their Battle.net accounts in the event that their login credentials are compromised outside of Blizzard's network infrastructure. Available as a physical device or as a free app for iOS or Android devices, it offers players an added level of security against account-theft attempts that stem from sources such as phishing attacks, viruses packaged with seemingly harmless file downloads, and websites embedded with malicious code.
When a player attaches an Authenticator to his or her account, it means that logging in to Battle.net will require the use of a random code generated by the Authenticator in addition to the player's login credentials. This helps our systems identify when it's actually the player who is logging in and not someone who might have stolen the player's credentials by means of one of the external theft measures mentioned above, or as a result of the player using the same account name and password on another website or service that was compromised. Considering that players are ultimately responsible for securing their own computers, and that the extra step required by the Authenticator is an added inconvenience during the log in process, we ultimately leave it up to the players to decide whether they want to add an Authenticator to their account. However, we always strongly encourage it, and we try to make it as easy as possible to do.
Many players have voiced strong approval for our security-related efforts. Blizzard deeply appreciates the outpouring of support it has received from its players related to the frivolous claims in this particular suit."

Deputy Prime Minister Wayne Swan has branded Tony Abbott "a thug" after a new opinion poll showed the Liberal leader's standing with voters was second-worst in the party's history.
Mr Abbott's disapproval rating hit 63 per cent in the Nielsen poll published on Monday, just nine points shy of Andrew Peacock's rating of 72 per cent recorded in October 1984.
The result has been linked to the opposition's pursuit of Prime Minister Julia Gillard over some minor legal work she did pro-bono for two Australian Workers' Union officials 20 years ago.
But the poll published by Fairfax Media also put the coalition ahead of Labor by 52-48 per cent on a two-party preferred basis, an election-winning lead.
Mr Swan was "very confident" Labor could still win the 2013 election, due by November next year.
"We've got a prime minister who is tough as teeth, a prime minister who has ideas for the future," he told reporters in Canberra.
"We've got an opposition leader who is a policy weakling and ... a thug when it comes to personal attacks."
Nielsen director John Stirton said Mr Abbott's handling of the AWU matter had not helped his position and may be part of the reason his approval had further declined.
The poll found 64 per cent of respondents did not approve of the way Mr Abbott had dealt with the issue.
Ms Gillard remained preferred prime minister, leading Mr Abbott 50-40 per cent.
But overall, the poll showed support for both the major parties was largely unaffected by the fallout over the AWU issue and the headlines surrounding former Speaker Peter Slipper.
Labor's primary vote, which has been at 34 per cent for the past three months, was at 35 per cent while the coalition's fell two points to 43 per cent and the Greens fell two points to 10 per cent.
Liberal frontbencher Simon Birmingham said Labor would throw "all the lies" it could at Mr Abbott in a bid to win the next election.
He noted the coalition had enjoyed a clear lead in 119 of the 124 opinion polls since the 2010 election.
"I'd much rather be in our position than in the government's position," Senator Birmingham said.
Climate Change Minister Greg Combet said the polls showed the AWU affair had left the opposition looking foolish.
"Mr Abbott and his deputy Julie Bishop made a number of defamatory and unsubstantiated allegations and they look like fools," he told reporters in Sydney.
"It's not the sort of politics Australian people want to see."
Mr Combet said he believed there was still time for the government to reverse the poll figures and seize victory at next year's election.
"We're bringing the budget back to surplus, there are good economic conditions here and we're also making major reforms," he said.

- Remove the ability to leave ratings from opponents in Battle Royale games
Suppose you walk into a club for an evening. You take in the sights, the sounds, the energy, all that junk. Say some guy bumps into and is unapologetic. Suppose there's a hot girl out on the dance floor. You could accurately give your opinion on the music and the atmosphere and such, but can you leave and tell your friends "It's full of jerks" or "All the chicks there are hot" and have that really be a true statement?
That's kind of my thought process with ratings for players in Battle Royales. I'm allowed to leave ratings for people who were halfway across the map, or got eliminated before I even got to take my first turn. To leave that person a rating of five stars is dishonest. It's not to say he was a bad player, but you really can't say for sure. But I have everything to gain from doing that because then I gain a point towards a medal. That, to me, seems open to abuse.
And I know there are limits on the frequency of Battle Royale games, but being eliminated in one from the 6th anniversary and having one finished from the update, I can leave ratings for 107 players. That would be more than half of what I currently need to get to the Silver rank.
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
- Reduce the risk of abusing the ratings system
- Improve the value of the Ratings medal

In this lusting over Matt Holliday, who could still stay in St. Louis as Albert Pujols desires, let's not forget Tampa Bay's Carl Crawford, whose speed skills would come into play in every aspect of the game.
Crawford has a $10 million option for 2010 with a $1.25 million buyout. That's reasonable, so the assumption must be made they way to get him would be in a trade. The Rays, like everybody else, want young talent. Would you be surprised to see them ask for Fernando Martinez? I wouldn't, as everybody asks for him.
That's a tough call, but Crawford's production (four 50-steal seasons and six years with 180 hits) is what the Mets would hope for from Martinez.
I like Crawford for his speed, defense and ability to be a table setter on offense. There's no question he plugs the left field hole, and he, Reyes, and Carlos Beltran bunched at the top of the order will create many RBI opportunities for Beltran, David Wright and Jeff Francoeur.
No, he doesn't have the power potential of Holliday, but he helps the Mets in other areas. He's not going to be a one-year pick-up, either. So, if the Mets could obtain Crawford without giving up Martinez, then having him would give the team the flexibility to deal him for pitching or power.

Find information about NJCU nursing prerequisites, registering for elective courses, and taking free practice exams online. Completion of an accredited nursing program or other medical training, can qualify you to start working immediately. If you complete the required nursing prerequisites, for example, there are a variety of nursing concentrations that may appeal to you, such as hospital administration, nursing management, or occupational rehabilitation. Check with the nursing department for an updated schedule of classes, registration deadlines, and a list of nursing prerequisites. Due to advances in medical systems, there is a growing skill-shortage of trained nursing staff, and of medical personnel in general. Please use the form above to request admissions info for NJCU.
To become a Registered Nurse (RN), you will be required to take courses in medical terminology, patient care and life sciences. Although associate degree programs provide students with adequate nursing training, a bachelor's degree provides greater clinical exposure and a stronger general education. A 4-year BSN program allows students to study specialized areas of nursing, including pediatrics, geriatrics and mental health nursing. An RN has to cope with more responsibility, and must oversee the work of LPNs and CNAs under their supervision. Nursing job openings are projected to grow 16 percent over the coming decade, much faster than the average for all occupations. Finally, the average salary for nurses with an associates degree was $43,700 in 2015, while nurses with a bachelors degree earned $67,490 per year.
Certification requirements include board certification by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) and the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP). The license period varies by individual state, but is usually valid for either two or three years, at which time you'll need to renew. Registered nurses (RNs) are not required to be certified in a particular specialty by state law. For example, it isn't necessary to be a Certified Medical-Surgical Registered Nurse (CMSRN) to work on a hospital Medical-Surgical (MedSurg) floor, and most MedSurg nurses are not CMSRNs. To keep your license current, you must take continuing education courses, and renew your license every few years.

The nation of Sweden is excitedly preparing for the second royal wedding in three years.
This afternoon, Princess Madeleine of Sweden will marry her fiance Christopher O'Neill in a lavish ceremony in Stockholm.
Madeleine is the youngest child of King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia, and is currently fourth-in-line for the Swedish throne.
The last royal wedding to take place in Sweden was in 2010, and was the wedding of Crown Princess Victoria who married her personal trainer, Daniel Westling, who became Prince Daniel and will be her consort when she inherits the throne.
Excitement has been building in recent weeks ahead of the wedding, and this morning thousands of well-wishers have taken to the streets in preparation of this afternoon's wedding.
Last night, the Swedish Royal family welcomed guests from around the world, as King Carl Gustaf hosted a pre-wedding dinner at the Grand Hotel in Stockholm where guests will stay.
Royals from around the world will attend the wedding. Prince Edward and wife Sophie, Countess of Wessex will represent The Queen at the 4pm ceremony. They will be joined by Denmark's Crown Prince Frederick and Crown Princess Mary, who will attend with his brother Prince Joachim of Denmark and his wife Princess Marie.
The bride has already been confirmed to wear Valentino this afternoon and fashion on lookers will be eagerly awaiting the arrival of the beautiful bride.
Ahead of the wedding Chris O'Neil announced he had declined a royal title and will remain a private citizen.
"Mr. Christopher O'Neill has respectfully asked to remain a private citizen and not be granted royal status," read an official statement, released on 17 May.
Now, after the wedding Chris will not carry a royal title. This is unlike Crown Princess Victoria's husband Daniel, who became 'Prince Daniel, Duke of Västergötland' upon marriage.
Despite Chris marrying the Princess, he has kept his job since the announcement of the wedding, and the financier has not attended any official royal duties with Madeleine.
The wedding will begin at 4pm and is expected to be watched around the world by millions.

SAN FRANCISCO — Hudson Landers is high-energy and loves sports. Spencer Witaszek is into quiet evenings lounging at home. And Marley James? The Topanga Canyon blond enjoys the mountains and has an independent streak.
All three are looking for love, just not the kind you might imagine.
Hudson, Spencer, Marley and their two-legged guardians are part of a novel online service called City Dog Share, whose motto is as straightforward as its members: "I will watch your dog if you can watch mine!"
But the virtual community, which sprang to life 18 months ago in San Francisco and branched out into Seattle, Portland and Humboldt County, is more than just a canine-caring co-op. (An effort in Los Angeles is under construction.)
It allows dog-shoppers to try a pet on for size without the burden of commitment, by giving them a chance to spend quality time with other peoples' pooches. The Facebook-based service also fills schnauzer-shaped gaps in the lives of humans whose apartments or schedules prohibit full-time furry friends.

New Car Review
2014 Mazda6: Long-Term Introduction
"Sexy." That's the one-word comment recently left by one of our Instagram followers. The comment itself isn't so unusual; plenty of high-dollar sports and luxury cars receive glowing praise because they just look so good. What is unusual is that the comment was made about a photo of a reasonably priced, family-friendly sedan -- the new 2014 Mazda6.
We're not completely surprised. We've long admired the new Mazda6's striking exterior look and seriously upgraded interior. And that's exactly why we decided to take a closer look at the Mazda6 by adding it to our long-term fleet of cars.
Stiff Competition
The 2014 Mazda6 is technically a budget-friendly family sedan that goes head-to-head with cars such as the Honda Accord, Nissan Altima, Toyota Camry and Kia Optima.
That's stiff competition for sure, but would you call any of those cars sexy? OK, maybe the Kia Optima is sexy.
Even so, the playing field is level at this point. Shoppers could choose any of the sedans listed above and be perfectly happy; there isn't a terrible car in the bunch. We think youthful or stand-out styling will be the make-or-break for many shoppers.
Features and Price
Our car is the 2014 Mazda6 Grand Touring model ($29,695) with just a few options. To complement the new Mazda6's slick new look, we opted for the Soul Red paint ($300), upgraded door-sill plates ($125) and the Grand Touring Tech Package ($2,080). The Tech Package includes some cool features, such as radar-based adaptive cruise control, automatic high-beam control, active grille shutters (for improved fuel economy), forward-collision warning and lane-departure warning.
Also included is Mazda's i-ELoop (Intelligent Energy Loop) system that recaptures vehicle braking energy, stores it and then uses that power to power accessories, which in turn saves gas. The Mazda6 with the energy recapturing system is rated at 28 miles per gallon city/30 mpg hwy. Both numbers are impressive for a car that's as quick, fun and spacious as the Mazda6.
Total price with options is just slightly over $33,000, including the $795 destination and handling fee.
Great Value
We've only had the car a few weeks, but already we can see the car is worth every penny. In fact, we expected features such as TomTom navigation, heated leather seats, regenerative braking and stunning 19-inch alloy wheels to push the price over $35,000.
For those on a budget, you should know that some of our car's features are options, and we opted for the top trim level. The base price of the 2014 Mazda6 is just over $20,000. But the basic car remains no matter which version or options you choose.
This is important because that basic car is very, very good. Even if you get the base model, you're still getting a car that is easily the best-looking sedan available at any price.
Thankfully, Mazda engineers have built a car that backs up the slick new look with perfectly balanced handling, a smooth and adequately powerful engine and an interior that conveys a sense of luxury and style.
Mazda Hits a Home Run
But words and pictures don't do this car justice; you have to get behind the wheel to really appreciate what this new Mazda6 is all about. The execution here is simply brilliant. The 2014 Mazda6 is a snapshot of a car and even an entire brand totally getting it right. Not only is the Mazda6 the best-looking, best-handling midsize sedan available, it is the best car Mazda has ever built.
If what you really want is a $50,000 European sport sedan, but you just can't swing the $800 per month payment, this is your car. We think one test drive is all it will take for most shoppers to be convinced.
At this point, we only have one real complaint: The screen that displays touchscreen audio controls and navigation function seems is too small. Given the high quality and attention to detail everywhere else in the car, we think that screen should be a little bigger.
Check back frequently for more updates on the 2014 Mazda6. We'll be taking road trips, hitting the daily commute and using the car the way you would.

Ten Second Review
The Jaguar XE delivers a slickly executed take on the compact executive genre, offering something different to the usual German suspects. There's now a decent range of petrol and diesel engines to choose from, plus a choice of front and four wheel drive options. The entry-level diesel boasts a sub-100g/km emissions and the flagship supercharged petrol S version packs a 380PS punch. Plus there's the option of cutting-edge connectivity. In short, it's a strong package.
The XE, says Jaguar 'changes everything'. It's certainly the most advanced, efficient and refined sports saloon the brand has ever built, a compact executive model that offers a really credible alternative to that 3 Series, C-Class or A4 you might have been considering. From its aluminium architecture to its frugal Ingenium engines and the purpose-built Wolverhampton factory that builds them, there's a 'clean sheet' feel to this design underpinned by the £2 billion-worth of investment that's been poured into it. Everything, in other words, is very different to what we were given the last time Jaguar entered this segment back in 2001 with the ill-fated X-TYPE. Forget that model though, for this is a very different car, a proper Jaguar and a proper challenger to the Germans in this class that comes to market with a very clear objective: to return its brand to the forefront of this sector, the position it enjoyed with the iconic MK II model back in the Sixties. That's a lot to ask. Can this car deliver?
Driving Experience
When you compete in the same class as the BMW 3 Series, it's a measure of real confidence to bill your contender as "the driver's car in the global mid-size saloon segment". Yet that's exactly what Jaguar has done and a closer look at the XE reveals the reasons behind their bullishness. The chassis is a 75% aluminium monocoque, light but immensely strong. The clean sheet design utilises a classically correct longitudinal engine and rear-wheel drive architecture. More of the right stuff comes with a slick double wishbone front suspension with room for an extra set of driveshafts when the inevitable all-wheel drive versions appear. Jaguar promises the best electric power steering in class and plenty of chassis goodies like torque vectoring by braking. Most buyers choose one of the 2.0-litre four cylinder 'Ingenium' engines, with the majority of sales focused on diesel power. Most popular are the single-turbo diesels, developing either 163 or 180PS. There's also a pokier twin turbo 240PS version of this unit and, provided you avoid the base 163PS model, you'll be offered the option of AWD. The key more recent change to the XE line-up though, has centred on the introduction of Ingenium 2.0-litre petrol power, buyers offered either 200PS, 250PS or 300PS versions of this relatively efficient powerplant. With the pokier versions, there's an AWD option. The flagship powerplant is the all-aluminium supercharged 3.0-litre V6 from the F-TYPE sports car. Now rated at 380PS, this engine provides the XE S with some senior acceleration, 62mph arriving in around 5 seconds, while top speed is electronically-limited to 155mph. Six-speed manual gearboxes are standard for diesels, while petrol models get an excellent ZF eight-speed auto, which van be optioned onto the diesel variants.
Design and Build
The XE conforms to much the same design language forged by the XF in 2007. This bold step freed the company up to move forward confidently, spawning the magnificent XJ and F-TYPE shapes. In many respects, the XE does look like a Russian doll miniature of the XF, a tactic already profitably exploited by its key German rivals. That means an aggressive grille, a strongly-sculpted bonnet, a steeply raked windscreen and a fluid window line. The result is a car that cleaves the air like no Jaguar before, registering a phenomenally low 0.26 drag coefficient. The interior is more spacious than the coupe-like profile would suggest. There's that typically Jaguar enveloping feel to the front of the cabin, with an eight-inch touchscreen taking pride of place and the option of an even more sophisticated 10.2-inch InControl Touch Pro screen if you want it. This can be ordered with 'Dual View' technology allowing driver and frnt seat passenger to view different things at the same time. Also optional is a 12.3-inch TFT virtual instrument cluster. Automatic cars get the brand's trademark rotary controller. The rear seats can be optionally heated and offer a 40:20:40 split-fold - a first for Jaguar - and a through-loading feature.
Market and Model
Prices start at a little under £27,000 for the 200PS petrol entry-level SE, with Prestige, Portfolio, R-Sport and S trims also offered. Go diesel as most buyers will and you'll be looking at almost £30,000 for a 163PS SE, with the 180PS models only around £500 more expensive. As for the pokier petrol models, well the 250PS 2.0i variant starts in R-Sport guise at around £33,500, while the supercharged 3.0-litre S is priced at around £48,000. As for equipment, well even the entry-level model gets features like satellite navigation, cruise control, 17-inch alloy wheels, DAB digital radio and a multifunction leather steering wheel. All manner of options, from stereo camera road sign recognition to blind spot monitoring and radar adaptive cruise control, can be fitted. There's self-parking, a laser head up display and perhaps the most intriguing feature of all, All Surface Progress Control. This traction management system comes into its own on snow-covered driveways and ungritted winter roads - and even wet grass. It works with the ZF auto gearbox and functions between 2mph and 19mph, activated by the cruise control switches on the steering wheel. Having set the desired speed, the driver concentrates on steering - the car takes care of the rest, ensuring smooth progress without skidding and without the driver touching the pedals. As for safety, an 'Autonomous Emergency Braking system is standard across the range.
Cost of Ownership
All manner of refinements have helped to produce exemplary emissions and economy figures. The lightweight chassis, the compact and light engines, the excellent aerodynamics and engine ancillaries that promote efficiency all contribute to the cause. There's also an electric power steering system that reduces emissions by two per cent on diesel models and three per cent on petrol cars. When it comes to the models on offer, the standout performer is clearly the 163PS diesel car, which emits just 99g/km - or, to put it another way, less than an entry-level Renault Twingo. The combined fuel consumption figure for this XE is an amazing 75mpg. Move up to the 180PS version of this engine and the figures are still very competitive - 109g/km of CO2 and 67.3mpg whether you opt for manual or automatic transmission. On to the automatic-only petrol models. Choose the 2.0-litre engine and whether you order it with 200 or 250PS, you should manage 45.1mpg on the combined cycle and 144g/km of CO2. The 3.0-litre petrol 380PS S variant manages 34.9mpg and 194g/km. When it comes to insurance ratings and residual value data, Jaguar also seems to think the numbers will work in its favour.

Before i bought mine, i took a class at the local range. These people were idiots...i felt as if i were in danger once we got to the range. They would put their fingers on the slide, point the gun in my direction, and one dude would incessently pull the gun back by his ear, like clint eastwood, after every recoil.No. The aggregate amount of deaths from having an increase of overall gun ownership would me larger than any amount of lives that may be potentially saved in remote incedents.
If you can prove that an increase of gun ownership would decrease the aggregate amount of deaths, i would consider it. But from my anecdotal experience, this would not be possible.

BAKER � The Laurel Hill and Baker schools are separated by about a dozen country miles in north Okaloosa County. However, while the Hobo and Gator volleyball teams both play in District 1-1A there is a much greater figurative distance between the two squads.
Baker�s volleyball team is the picture of consistency rolling off one district championship after another and finishing second in the state last year.
On the other hand, the Hobos find themselves in yet another rebuilding process under first-year coach Ashley Miller, the fourth Laurel Hill volleyball coach in the last four years.
Laurel Hill traveled to Baker on Tuesday for a District 1-1A match, and it should come as no surprise that the battle-proven Gators made short work of their neighbors to the northeast in sweeping the match in three sets by scores of 25-8, 25-14, 25-17.
The trip to Baker was a trip home for Miller, a former star on the Gator volleyball team and the final score didn�t surprise her. She understands it takes time to build a program and she focused on the positives that can be found in a loss.
�I don�t think that was an embarrassment by any means,� Miller said of the final score. �We are focused on making a goal and getting better every week. Baker is the first team that has run a consistent offense on us and I was marginally happy with our defense.
�Now we will need to pick our offense up to keep pace with it because the teams we�ve been playing up until now haven�t been running as much offense as that. We knew this would be the best team we face coming here. And we hope when see them again in the future we will be a little more of a challenge for them.�
The Gators (12-2, 5-0) threatened to run away with the match early as they jumped to quick 7-2 lead in the first set and poured it on from there.
A score by Laurel Hill�s Kaylee L� Homme temporarily broke the Gator momentum, but only for a moment.
A Katie Wickery kill opened the door for quick 4-0 run by the Gators that ended with a Hana Wadsworth kill to make the score 11-3. The rest of the set belonged to Baker as the only Hobo points came on Gator miscues.
The second set was more of the same as the Gators roared to a 5-0 lead and never allowed Laurel Hill to get closer than three points at 6-3.
Wickery continued to have a big match for the Gators with multiple service ace mixed in with some kills.
Bridget Zessin delivered a big play for Laurel Hill when she challenged Wickery at the net and came away with a big block that led to a Laurel Hill point.
The Hobos made things interesting for a little while in the third and final set as they battled to a 10-9 lead, but that�s when the talent and experience of Gators took over as Baker went on a 5-0 run to take a 14-0 lead and control of the final set.
As is normally the case a number of Baker players contributed to the win.
Wickery led the way with 10 aces, five digs, four assists and four kills. Savannah Risen had five aces, five assists, three digs and a kill.
Wadsworth had six kills to lead the Gators. Jordan Linzy had four digs, three kills and two assists. And Haley Wagner had six digs, two aces and two kills.
Baker coach Jamie Kerrell was pleased by the Gators� skillful effort.
�We just try to stay focused and stay on top of things and that each game to make sure that we are getting better and improving,� he said. �We are trying to fine tune things so when the district tournament rolls around we are firing on all cylinders and we are where we need to be.
�We are coming out and doing the things that we need to do, and that�s what it�s about.�

Lunch with Ernest
My father will probably take pictures until it is physically impossible to do so. I don't think he'll willingly retire. My mother, on the other hand, does the behind-the-scenes work so that my father can pursue his dream. She looks forward to a quiet retirement and time to read, write, knit, think, dream... Still, as long as my father wants to shoot, she'll be there keeping the company running. I think that's really wonderful of her, although I wish she could pursue her dreams more often. I think she really enjoys travelling, reading poems, and seeing beautiful landscapes.
I am the youngest of three children. Our house has always been part of the office, so my sisters and I grew up watching them work. Our passions lie elsewhere. Ching used to be an IT manager at Proctor and Gamble before transferring to HP because of the company move. Kathy's interested in photography, but is thinking of being a flight attendant. I really love teaching.
Kathy is the most likely successor to the business, but she doesn't really see herself doing advertising photography right now. We'd rather see the employees inherit the business because great business requires great passion. G-nie looks like she'll do a great job, and she's learned a lot from my father. My mom will be hard to replace, though.
We never felt pressured to join the family business. Our parents are open about the different paths we want to take. Sometimes, though, I worry about what will happen when the torch must be passed. I don't want to see Adphoto dissolve because there are so many people who have worked there almost all their lives, and I just can't imagine them looking for work anywhere else. I know, however, that I'm ill-suited for the job - at least if I want to pursue my own dreams.

Didn't know there was something like this - or that we now enjoy near links in oddmuse. What a cute feature!
I've had a blog for roughly a year and a half now, and I think I'm pretty much settling into the routine. Reading Ganesh's BlogsAreDead post, I think about how I use Emacs to keep track of my notes.
Linearity - Blogs are linear, ie usually in chronological order. My knowledge/experience is non-linear (fortunately). There is an obvious mismatch here. I don't see how I can write coherently about recursive functions, pipelines, privacy and chicks in the same post.

I split this up into several remember-to-planner-plan-page-dwim posts, usually cross-linking them with a topic page.
Lack of time - Everybody seems to be bringing this up. I don't post very often, but when I do, they are long ones. If you've noticed, my titles are usually one or two words - "Skills", "04-1 Registered", "Talks", "Its Tuesday", $(rand dict). Not very descriptive. Often, I remember writing about something, but not able to track it down. Sad, really.

My titles aren't all that descriptive either, but that's what M-x planner-search-notes in planner-experimental.el is for. And yes, I really hate it if I know I blogged about something but I can't remember how to bring it up.
Non-conformance to standards - When you put together an entry, do you check if it confirms to W3C standards every time ? Honestly, that's insane. A standard transformation mapping will make life so much easier. I now face a problem, how do I convert my old entries ? I seem to have used three to four different ways to post my code, all of them every inelegant, except for the last.

I work with plain text.
Immature - Blogging software is not powerful enough. What if I want to quote an email message, or a news thread ? Or simple syntax highlighting ? Or even on the fly spell checking (known as flyspell-mode in emacs, BTW). Couple this with my non-descriptive titles, how do I cross reference things ?

Emacs is wonderful!
Not cool - Blogs aren't cool anymore, since every kid happens to have his own. When you come across somebody's blog which appears to be very interesting, do you take the time to read through his archives ? Ofcourse not. More bit bricks.

I often read through other people's archives. I hope that the cross-references with plan pages make it easier for people to see related stuff, but I plan to have some kind of search someday.
Stagnant - "The only thing that is constant is change." Spring->Summer->Fall, so many things change around you. About 28.5% (eh !) of your content is stale. Your views on life constantly change (you may deny it). Going back and changing stuff just doesn't make sense when your entries are chronological.

I frequently go back and post updates. I also tend to reorganize the plan pages fairly often, although that does mean semi-broken day links. (Must get those GUIDs up and running!)
Emacs is way cool.

Working Lives: Kenya
Kenya is a country of entrepreneurs.
And the capital Nairobi is where many Kenyans come looking for opportunities. It's the commercial heart of east Africa, and despite chronic poverty for many, there's a palpable sense of energy in the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Working Lives Kenya meets six people in very different social circumstances, but with a common desire to improve their lives.
For Wambui Gitonga, her decision to give up work and be a full time mum introduced her to a new career. The daily school run became a profitable business.
Gachao Kiuna is one of a new generation of Kenyan business entrepreneurs. He's responsible for investing millions of dollars in Kenya's infrastructure, with a vision to help boost Kenya's economic development.
Roseline Awino is one of hundreds of thousands living in Nairobi's slums. She's a cleaner, a cook and a shopkeeper, with several jobs needed just to get by.
Steve Okiri has to leave Nairobi during the week, travelling hours from home to work in a desolate place. It's where he found the best fit for his training as an industrial chemist.
A civil servant, Dr Edward Kariuki is no pen-pushing bureaucrat. His job as a vet with the Kenya Wildlife Service is unpredictable and rewarding, including operating on orphaned lions.
And for Fundi Frank, a fashion designer for pop stars with a phone in each hand, networking and socialising is a crucial part of promoting his brand.

Article by Autos.ca Staff
There has never been a better time than now for Canadian automotive consumers. The broad range of choices available in our market is immense, everything from ultra-efficient all-electric vehicles right up to turbocharged V12 monsters; if you have a particular automotive taste, chances are someone is making the right car for you.
But too much choice can sometimes be daunting. With the market so competitive right now, how do you sort the good cars from the bad cars? Well, thankfully, there really are no new vehicles sold today that could truly be considered 'bad' cars. However, some vehicles do excel at their automotive mission in life better than others, while others are exclusive niche products or have a very narrow, specific purpose. So what is a consumer to do?
Well, that is what we are here for. However, we do not intend for you to take our word as the gospel truth, but rather educated advice from those who have had the opportunity to drive the majority of these vehicles and were able to analyze each one's strong and weak points. That is why we have brought back the annual Autos.ca Top Picks.
How are the top picks chosen?
The Autos.ca staff of eight editors and writers each ranked every new vehicle for sale in Canada for the 2013 model year from best to worst within 10 vehicle categories: City and Subcompacts, Compacts, Family Cars, Sports Cars Low, Sports Cars High, Luxury Car Low, Luxury Car High, CUV/SUV Low, CUV/SUV High, and Trucks.
We took into account factors such as styling, comfort, functionality, quality, performance, fuel economy, safety features, reliability, and value for money. We also considered class-specific aspects such as cargo capacity, payload, towing, utility, and ground clearance. The top two vehicles in each category were then chosen as part of our Top Pick list, except in Compact vehicles, where there was a tie for second so three vehicles were chosen, and in Trucks, where one vehicle absolutely ran away with the category so it was our only pick in that category. Do you agree or disagree with our choices? Let us know in our online forum.
City and Subcompacts
Honda Fit
The Honda Fit was the car that proved to Canadians that subcompact vehicles can be fun. And while other fun subcompact vehicles, like the Mazda2, have since come to market, none have been able to match the Honda's ability to transform into an incredibly practical vehicle thanks to the trademark Magic Seats. Not bad for a vehicle that hasn't changed all that much since its 2006 North American introduction.

Kia Rio
If the Honda Fit was the first subcompact to bring fun to the segment, then the Kia Rio is the vehicle that has brought style and luxury. With one of the most attractive exterior designs in a subcompact vehicle, especially in sedan form, the Rio also has features unheard of for this segment, options like a heated steering wheel.

With 11 days on file, it's time we introduced a challenge with a little style. To enter to win today's 25 Days of Tegra device, you'll need to submit an original haiku (you know, the Japanese poetry that follows a 5-7-5 pattern?). You'll also need to be logged in, but I figured you guys have figured that part out by now.
The Prize:
The Fujitsu STYLISTIC M532 is powered by the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor and features a 10.1 inch display, 1GB of RAM, an 8MP rear camera- all the bells and whistles you've come to expect from these tablets.
Contest Rules
It's a holiday miracle! This year we've expanded our eligible countries to include the following: US (excluding Puerto Rico and its other territories and possessions), Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, Norway, Finland, Czech Republic, Australia, China (excluding Hong Kong and Macau), Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, India (excluding the State of Tamil Nadu), and Brazil. If you're keeping track, that's like quadruple the locales we normally ship to, so huzzah!
How to Enter
Not that I'm any good at it, but astute readers might have noticed that I've been starting each day of the 25 Days of Tegra with a rhyme. Holidays just feel like the time to rhyme. To enter to win today, you'll need to write a short poem.
It can be about anything you want, the holidays, the tablet, the internet- just make sure it confines to the traditional practices of haiku (most notably: three lines, with 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables each, respectively). Multiple comments are allowed on this post, but each user will only be counted once. The winner will be chosen at random (as long as the haiku is valid), so don't bother downvoting each other. To get things rolling, I've written a few myself:
A month of prizes
like some new age nerd Santas
Will he visit me?
The weather changes
People opening their hearts
Holiday traffic
Holidays approach
Families start to gather
Please spike the eggnog
I know these are terrible. I already admitted to being terrible at this. Which is why we're asking you guys to submit some. Anyone got some clever words to get in the holiday spirit?
Winner: boro09

Section 1 - Innovation and Transparency
|Describe your top three E-Government IT accomplishments related to Open Government and innovation from this year. You are encouraged to confer with your Open Government Senior Accountable Official. If you have questions on who is your agency's Senior Accountable Official, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The U.S. Department of Education is highlighting three data-centered Open Government initiatives for the FY10 E-Gov Act Report. These initiatives exemplify the agency's commitment to transparency, participation and collaboration in programs.ED Data Express
ED Data Express, http://eddataexpress.ed.gov, was launched in August 2010 to improve the public's ability to access and explore high-value state-level education data collected by the Department. The site is designed to be interactive and to present the data in a clear, easy-to-use manner, with options to download information into Excel or manipulate the data within the website. The site currently includes data from several sources, including EDFacts, Consolidated State Performance Reports, State Accountability Workbooks, the National Center for Education Statistics, the National Assessment of Educational Progress, the College Board, and the Department's Budget Service office. The site includes data ranging from graduation rates to basic financial information.
ED Data Express includes three tools that allow users to access and view the data: a State Snapshots page, a Data Element Explorer, and a Build a State Table page. The State Snapshot pages include charts and tables with key data for each state. The Data Element Explorer allows users to view a single element across all states, both graphically and in a table. The Build a State Table page allows users to build customized tables by selecting specific data elements and specific states. The site also contains extensive documentation in the form of footnotes, FAQs, and an About page to help users understand how to properly interpret the data.
The Department will release version 2.0 of the site early in 2011. Version 2.0 will have a number of enhancements, with a focus on additional ways to visualize the data (such as graphic maps and filtering tools). It will also be designed to interface with social networking applications, such as Facebook and Digg, so the information can easily be shared and discussed.Data and Content Coordination Team
The Department has placed a high priority on making more data publicly available and using data to inform education decision-making. The agency recently established the Data and Content Coordination (DACC) team to achieve this vision by enhancing data and content coordination across information technology initiatives and improving the transparency of information that the Department communicates to the public. The DACC team's Executive Committee is chaired by the Chief Information Officer and includes representatives from the Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy Development; Office of Communications and Outreach; Office of the Deputy Secretary; and the National Center for Education Statistics. The DACC Executive Committee ensures new information management and dissemination efforts are communicated among internal stakeholders to avoid duplication, inconsistency, and confusion in our public presentations; identifies opportunities for better coordination and consistency; and improves transparency by building on Open Government efforts already under way at the Department.
The DACC Executive Committee has assembled two teams of ED employees – the ED Content Strategy Team and the ED Data Strategy Team – to work in parallel to support communication, analysis, and coordination of these efforts. The ED Content Strategy Team works to accomplish the DACC goals by ensuring all content related to ED's organizations, program, policy, grants, and grantees is presented in a clear, accurate, and integrated manner. This group evaluates the management of program content on public-facing websites such as www.ed.gov and data.ed.gov. The ED Data Strategy Team identifies opportunities for multi-project coordination or alignment to support States' use of data through the agency's data websites and the technical assistance it provides to grantees. As the Department strives to use data in innovative ways for these purposes, this team aims to improve its web interfaces, consolidate existing data interfaces, establish common platforms and structures for publishing data, and ultimately determine a governance structure to manage this work for the long-term.
Section 2 - Compliance with Goals and Provisions of the Act
|A. Your agency's Information Resources Management (IRM) Strategic Plan and Enterprise Architecture (EA) Plan;
The Department's IRM Strategic Plan is posted on ED.gov:
The Department's EA Transition Plan is posted on ED.gov:
|B. For each E-Gov initiative, provide final determinations, priorities, and schedules. Also include your agency's information dissemination product catalogs, directories, inventories, and any other management tools used to improve the dissemination of and access to your agency's information by the public;
The Department is committed to providing its full range of information to the public. A primary vehicle for doing so is the Department's main website, ED.gov. ED.gov offers regularly updated information on the administration's priorities as well as Department grants and contracts, federal student financial aid, education research and statistics, and agency policy and programs (please see http://www.ed.gov). The Department developed an inventory of website content, http://www.ed.gov/notices/egovinventory.html, as required by Section 207(f)(2) of the E-Government Act of 2002. The Department offers a one-stop system for ordering its publications (http://edpubs.ed.gov/), an array of e-newsletters (http://www.ed.gov/news/newsletters/index.html), and an RSS feed (http://www.ed.gov/news/newsletters/rssnewsfeed.html). The Department also uses social media sites to help communicate the Secretary's message and priorities. A complete list of the agency's social media pages, feeds, and channels is at: http://www.ed.gov/about/overview/focus/social-media.html.
|C. Identify improved performance (e.g., outcome measures) by tracking performance measures supporting agency objectives and strategic goals;
Department-wide annual plans and performance reports, http://www.ed.gov/about/reports/annual/index.html, describe the goals and intended outcomes of agency programs and initiatives. Annual strategies and targets are published in performance plans in advance of each fiscal year; results are reported in annual performance and accountability reports following the fiscal year end.
|D. Your agency's FOIA handbook, the URL of your agency's primary FOIA Web site, and the URL where frequent requests for records are made available to the public;
The Department's primary FOIA website is:
The Department provides a link from its primary FOIA website to the DOJ FOIA Guide:
The Department provides information to assist requesters to "make a FOIA
request." The web address for "How to Make a Request" is:
The Department's "frequently requested records" web page is:
|E. A list of your agency's public Web sites disseminating research and development (R&D) information to the public, describing for each whether the website provides the public information about federally funded R&D activities and/or provides the results of Federal research;
The Department's primary Web site, ED.gov, hosts a portal page that serves as the starting point to ED research and statistics information (http://www.ed.gov/rschstat/landing.jhtml). The main ED organization that supports ED research and statistics is the Institute of Education Sciences (http://ies.ed.gov/).
|F. An inventory describing formal agency agreements (e.g., contracts, memorandum of understanding) with external entities (e.g., partnerships with State and local governments, public libraries, industry and commercial search engines) complementing your agency's information dissemination program, briefly explaining how each agreement improves the access to and dissemination of government information to the public;
Besides http://www.ed.gov, http://ies.ed.gov, http://studentaid.ed.gov/, the agency's main sources of information for the public, the Department has contracted for the following to complement its information dissemination program:
The Department has the following cooperative agreements:
|G. An inventory that describes your agency's NARA-approved records schedule(s) or the link to the publicly-posted records schedule(s), and a brief explanation of your agency's progress to implement NARA Bulletin 2006-02. For the brief explanation please report the number of systems for which a record schedule was submitted to NARA in FY 2010 and the number of systems still requiring records schedules.
The Department's Comprehensive Records Disposition Schedule is available
Of the 115 electronic information systems containing Federal records, all but two are covered by a NARA-approved or NARA-submitted records retention schedule. Schedules for the remaining systems will be completed in FY11.
|H. Describe how your agency has implemented use of electronic signatures for appropriately secure electronic transactions with Government and established a framework to allow efficient interoperability.
The Department created the Identity Management Integrated Project Team, which is made up of stakeholders from principal offices with a common interest in identity management. The formation of this team ensures that all necessary stakeholders have input toward the creation, development, and implementation of identity management projects. The team also serves as a forum for the discussion and resolution of identity management issues across the enterprise.
The Department has developed a working relationship with the GSA-sponsored Identity, Credentials, and Access Management (ICAM) organization. ICAM is a sub-committee under the Federal CIO Council that addresses identity management issues and sets federal standards. In conjunction with ICAM efforts, the Department is currently addressing compatibility issues in transferring digitally signed documents between the Department and the Office of the Federal Register.
The Department also has representation on the ICAM Logical Access Working Group. This group is responsible for setting federal policy and addressing government-wide issues in the area of logical access. Participation with this group informs the Department about ongoing issues, their resolution, and the establishment of federal policies and procedures.
|I. Describe how your agency has enhanced public participation in Government by electronic means for development and issuance of regulations. (Ex: regulation.gov)
The Department continues to seek greater and more useful public participation in our rulemaking activities through the use of transparent and interactive rulemaking procedures and new technologies. To facilitate the public's involvement in our rulemaking process, the Department participates in www.regulations.gov Regulations.gov), an electronic, single, Government-wide access point that enables the public to submit comments on different types of Federal regulatory documents and to read and respond to comments submitted by other members of the public during the public comment period. Regulations.gov improves the public's access to and participation in rulemaking by providing one central electronic location to search, retrieve, and read all Federal regulatory material. Through this site, the public can view a description of regulations currently open for comment, read the full text of these documents and any supporting regulatory documents, and submit comments to the appropriate federal agency. The Department accepts public comments on all of its proposed and interim final regulations, as well as a limited number of other regulatory documents requesting public comment, through Regulations.gov. The Department expects to expand its use of the system to include an increased number of regulatory documents in the future.
|J. Describe how your agency has linked performance goals to key stakeholders, private sector, other agencies, and internal operations in delivering information and services through use of IT.
The enterprise architecture segment modernization process links the line of business performance goals, objectives and measures to the Department's strategic plan goals and objectives. Segment modernization plans describe how each line of business will use IT investments to improve performance and provide services to stakeholders using IT. The segment modernization plans are reviewed, evaluated and prioritized for funding by the Department's Planning and Investment Review Working Group based on the investment's alignment to strategic goals, implementation risk, and ability to close performance gaps and eliminate redundancies within the IT portfolio.
|K. Describe how your agency has reduced errors through use of electronic submissions.
The EDFacts initiative has significantly reduced the reporting burden for state and local data producers, and has streamlined data collection, analysis, and reporting functions at the federal, state, and local levels. EDFacts is a Department initiative to collect, analyze, report on, and promote the use of high-quality, kindergarten through grade 12 (K–12) performance data. The Department uses this data for education planning, policy-making, and management and budget decision-making to improve outcomes for students. EDFacts centralizes data on state education agencies (SEAs), local education agencies and schools, and provides users with the ability to easily analyze and report on submitted data.
SEAs provide EDFacts data to the Department using an electronic system that facilitates the efficient and timely transmission of data. EDFacts incorporates business rules in the form of edits that provide a tiered set of errors and warnings to ensure the integrity of the data when it is submitted electronically to the agency. SEAs have been required to submit data through EDFacts since the 2008-2009 school year to meet federally mandated program data requirements and to support the Government Performance and Results Act, among other requirements. For example, the Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR) includes data from SEAs that track progress in implementing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The CSPR data include information on adequate yearly progress, state performance assessments, highly qualified teachers, and supplemental educational services options.
Over the past few years the presence of the EDFacts Data Warehouse (EDW) has enabled the Department to take several key steps that reduce or remove errors when the data is utilized for other initiatives. The recently launched ED Data Express publishes a significant amount of data from the CSPR. These data are stored in the EDW as they become finalized by program offices. When ED Data Express was launched, queries were executed directly to the warehouse to ensure that an electronic file was generated. This ensured that EDFacts was the only source for ED Data Express for any item that originated within CSPR. For Version 2 of ED Data Express, the Department is implementing a web service to connect ED Data Express's public database servers and the EDFacts internal databases.
In addition, a web service is in place between the EDFacts collection systems and the servers that hold the raw data for the Common Core of Data (CCD) published by the National Center for Education Statistics. As states submit data to EDFacts, it is stored not only within the EDFacts system, but also within CCD systems. An update in EDFacts results in an automated update within the CCD systems. This linkage has provided the CCD team with quick access to the most recent data from SEAs.
|L. Briefly describe your agency efforts to comply with Section 508.
The Department has made a commitment to support its obligation under Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, to ensure the accessibility of its programs and activities to individuals with disabilities. The Department's Assistive Technology Program provides assistive technology solutions to disabled employees and also ensures that the agency's electronic and information systems are accessible to employees and members of the public with disabilities.
The Department adheres to Requirements for Accessible Electronic and Information Technology (E&IT) Design http://www.ed.gov/fund/contract/apply/clibrary/software.html), which address the accessibility needs that must be considered when designing and developing E&IT for the Department, and the guide Testing for Web Accessibility Compliance Under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (http://www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/assisttesting.html), which provides concrete instructions for implementing the accessibility requirements.
|M. Quantify the cost savings and cost avoidance achieved through implementation of IT programs.
The enterprise architecture segment modernization planning process has enabled line of business segment owners to increase the amount of development, modernization and enhancement funding across the IT portfolio from $31.1 million (4 percent of total IT spending) in FY 10 to $57.12 million (14 percent of total IT spending) in FY 11. The impact of these adjustments is that the Department has increased its spending for performance-improving IT innovations by $26.02 million. An example of the types of portfolio adjustments that the segment modernization planning process has enabled can be found in the IT infrastructure segment. By opting to reuse an existing document/records management solution to support the Department's requirement for these services, the agency is able to avoid a projected $300,000 per year cost for licensing and hosting over the next seven years.

Madonna duets with pretender Cyrus
Madonna has teamed up with the latest pretender to her throne by performing a duet with chart-topping star Miley Cyrus.
The pop duo shared a stage during a TV special on the younger singer's hits as she recorded an MTV Unplugged programme in the US.
Miley, the 21-year-old famed for her suggestive routines and twerking, played two songs with Madonna, 55, for the stripped-down session filmed in Hollywood.
They are said to have grinded and grabbed each other during their duet on Miley's We Can't Stop and Madonna's Don't Tell Me in the hour-long acoustic show.
"So, it sounds super lame, but as a pop star it's pretty cool performing with Madonna," Miley said.
Performing alongside Madonna has become something of a rite of passage or seal of approval for young female pop superstars, following shows in which she has collaborated with the likes of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and MIA.
Miley's show featured a number of songs from her latest album Bangerz, including Wrecking Ball, which featured a controversial video in which she appeared naked.
The performance is being screened in the US tonight (January 29) and will be broadcast in the UK at a later date.
