Lack of points not an issue for motivation - Maldonado
Sutton Images Enlarge Pastor Maldonado is sure his first points of 2014 will come soon after failing to finish higher than 14th this year. The Lotus driver has retired from three of the seven races this year and failed to make the start of the Monaco Grand Prix. He has suffered reliability issues but has also been involved in a number of incidents and has notched up four penalty points against him this season. Nevertheless, Maldonado says his motivation is still high and he is sure the points will come soon. "I am very motivated," he said. "I think we have some good weekends ahead of us and there are still so many races to go. The European part of the season is very...

DICE making Battlefront 3 sounds about right to me.
Lets face it, the game was always a Battlefield wannabe in the Star Wars universe.
IF they do it right, and that is a big if, but if they do it right, and make it Battlefield-esque but keep those aspects that make it specific to Star Wars, well that can be one bad ass game right there.

Tough times in the server market, even though more iron moved in '13
The market dynamics were all wrong for folk building and supplying server boxes in 2013 - in the year that shipments reached a record nine million milestone, factory revenues tumbled. IDC is the second beancountery in as many days to publish less than flattering stats, with unit sales rising 3.2 per cent on calendar '12 but the …
An obvious solution
The problem is that the mainframe is doing the same task as it always was ago and the number of records/customers only increases slowly, so faster CPUs * same work = less machines.
Just launch a new mainframe operating system every 18months that uses twice as much CPU as the previous one to give you dancing bankers int he background. The obsolete the earlier one to force everybody to upgrade.
Cloud hyperscale growth
"The additional growth in ODM Direct sales, spurred most recently by a native data centre expansion by some of the largest device providers, will help the server market reach that tipping point faster,"
If you need 20K identical commodity boxes/year you can just set up your own production than buying it from the likes of Dell.

I don't know if Andy Street, head of John Lewis, plays football, but he's certainly a master of our second most popular sport: French bashing.
Nothing in France works, he says. In absolute terms he's not far wrong: most things in France don't work as well as they should.
But by comparing St Pancras favourably to Gare du Nord, Mr Street implied that his standards aren't absolute but comparative. One can also infer that he uses Britain as the baseline value.
A 22-year-old Colombian woman has unwittingly stumbled upon a promising horticultural idea.
It was unwitting because her intention was never to grow potatoes. Following her mother's advice, she simply used that versatile root vegetable as a contraceptive device.
However, by the time she was admitted to hospital with acute abdominal pains, and the doctors tried to harvest the potato, it had already germinated and grown roots inside her.
David Cameron has only one thing going for him: he isn't Ed Miliband.
Miliband's speech at the Labour conference proved yet again that he has learned nothing from the disasters his socialist predecessors have perpetrated with predictable regularity.
Clearly, this Eddie is not for learning.
Dave isn't a particularly fast study either, but he has the mind-focusing prospect of losing the next election staring him in the face.
Our country is at war.
Historically, that's what the RAF flying bombing sorties has meant. If this fact now calls for a different interpretation, I'd like to hear what it is.
Until I do I'll be repeating the same old thing: Britain is at war. And I hope you'll join me.
By doing so you'll exhibit more clarity of strategic thought than HMG so far has shown, and it's not getting much help from our commentators, expert or otherwise.
If, like me, you aren't plugged into popular culture, Robson Green is some kind of TV actor, a rather good one by general consent.
That makes him a celebrity, a status that confers on its proud possessor the authority to enlarge on any subject under the sun and have his views taken seriously.
Now my lifelong familiarity with actors (I grew up in the family of one) has led me to one of those YOU CAN'T SAY THAT observations, namely that thespians tend to be rather dim.
Lord Hailsham's explanation of conservatism is correct, but only as far as it goes:
"Conservatism is not so much a philosophy as an attitude, a constant force, performing a timeless function in the development of a free society, and corresponding to a deep and permanent requirement of human nature itself."
Fair enough, conservatism isn't so much an ideological bias as a matter of intuitive, visceral predisposition.
Giving testimony took an act of sheer heroism for the poor victim, still deeply traumatised even after 24 years.
Addressing London's Southwark Crown Court, she said: "I was a naive and trusting 22-year-old when I was subjected to an unprovoked and terrifying physical assault at my place of work."
Lewis Carroll was nothing short of prophetic when he made his Humpty Dumpty conduct this dialogue with Alice:
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean – neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master – that's all."
Tomorrow Dave will let slip the dogs of war.
But, in compliance with Shakespeare's original, the crying havoc part will come first.
Dave will entertain his parliamentary colleagues with a few horror stories about IS monstrosity, beheadings and some such.
The canine part will follow, with Dave and his jolly friends, now suitably worked up, pushing the button for yet another PlayStation action against the nasties.
Ed Miliband is asking for 10 years in power to "turn Britain around".
He's being uncharacteristically modest. Socialists have never needed years to destroy a country when they take over.
Depending on their radicalism, this feat may take them days to achieve (Lenin) or perhaps weeks (Hollande). Never years.

Empress of Ireland Disaster (9 mins)
The newsreels frequently covered disaster stories, using aftermath footage to piece together an impression of tragic events. But seldom were they as skilfully constructed as this Gaumont Graphic report on the wreck of RMS 'Empress of Ireland'. The film uses footage of the ship's crew, the rescue vessels, the survivors and their families to build a beautiful yet chilling narrative of the tragedy.
Among the portrait shots of crew, rescuers and survivors there's a rare (for the time) interior shot of the radio operator in his booth, illustrated with an inventive animation of an SOS signal. More harrowing are the scenes of sailors unloading wooden coffins from a ship and the rows of child-sized coffins stacked up at the Quebec morgue. The Canadian liner was bound for Liverpool on its 96th voyage when it collided with the Norwegian collier SS 'Storstad' (also pictured here) in the St Lawrence River. The 'Empress' sank in under 15 minutes, drowning more than 1,000 of its 1,477 passengers and crew.

In November 2007, a new board game called Yavalath was invented. The rules of Yavalath are simple: Players take turns adding a piece of their colour to a hexagonal board and win by making four-in-a-row of their colour – but lose by making three-in-a-row beforehand. Yavalath has proven reasonably popular as its simple rules allow interesting and surprising situations to develop due to its innovative win with four but lose with three winning condition. But Yavalath is really set apart from the many other board games invented in 2007 by one remarkable fact: Yavalath was designed by a computer programme. [more inside]

If you're occupying a financial center, you might want to pass the time with a game of Monopoly. Though Hasbro gives ahighly contested "official history" asserting that the game was invented by an unemployed Philadelphia man, it actually originated 30 years earlier as The Landlord's Game, an anti-capitalist protest against the movement of wealth from poor to rich via real estate profiteering. Designed and patented by a Georgist Quaker woman, Elizabeth Maggie, in 1904, it was published by her Economic Game Company, but also spread far and wide - including in circles of socialist-leaning academic economists like Scott Nearing - as a hand-drawn and independently printed folk game.

The da Vinci Robot Plays "Operation" Board Game
I'll trade you three Creepers for a Herobrine card
Minecraft mastermind Markus "Notch" Persson has officially announced his company's next project: a hybrid online board game/trading card system called Scrolls. Spearheaded by Mojang co-founder Jakob Porser (interview) and with backstory penned by Penny Arcade wordsmith Jerry "Tycho" Holkins, the game will consist of turn-based battles between collectible "scrolls," illustrated character cards strategically deployed on an abstract gaming grid. In an interesting inversion of the Minecraft model, the game itself will be free, while updates in the form of additional scroll packs will cost a nominal fee -- a business model gaming analyst Sean Maelstrom decries as "snake oil." Mojang, for their part, is unafraid and even eager to target an untested slice of the gaming market, and is angling to get their playable prototype of Scrolls ready for a possible Alpha release this summer.
PanzerBlitz is a tactical-scale board wargame of armoured combat set in the Eastern Front of the Second World War. The game is notable for being the first true board-based tactical-level, commercially available conflict simulation (wargame). It also pioneered concepts such as isomorphic mapboards and open-ended design, in which multiple unit counters were provided from which players could fashion their own free-form combat situations rather than simply replaying pre-structured scenarios.

UPDATE 1-Micron says moves closer to Elpida deal
SAN FRANCISCO Feb 28 (Reuters) - Memory chipmaker Micron said the Tokyo district court issued an order approving its acquisition of Japanese memory chipmaker Elpida after creditors agreed to the plan.
Boise, Idaho-based Micron, which is losing money due to a crumbling PC industry, wants to create larger economies of scale and offered in July to buy Elpida for about $750 million in cash and to pay creditors a total of $1.75 billion in annual installments through 2019.
Elpida's creditors voted to approve the deal on Tuesday, Micron said.
In October, the Tokyo court referred the reorganization plan to creditors for approval after it dismissed a rival proposal promoted by a group of bondholders led by hedge funds Linden Advisors, Owl Creek Asset Management and Taconic Capital Advisors.
Finalization of the approval order could come with four weeks, presuming no appeal is filed, Micron said.
Micron and Elpida also need approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware, where the opposed bondholders have shifted their fight.
Elpida, the last of Japan's dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chipmakers, was driven into bankruptcy by falling chip sales and foreign competition.
The acquisition would make Micron, which continues to expect the transaction to close in the first half of 2013, the No. 2 global supplier of DRAM chips, behind Samsung Electronics .

London Welsh head coach Justin Burnell is buzzing ahead of the new season – especially after his high-profile captures.
The Oxford-based Exiles this week signed Australian back row Lachlan McCaffrey and Argentina prop Pablo Henn.
But it was yesterday's announcement that New Zealand scrum half Piri Weepu would join that really got the rugby world talking.
Burnell is understandably delighted, and expects three more new players before their season starts in September.
"I'm very excited, of course I am," he said.
"It's a real sign of intent because it shows we haven't gone into the Aviva Premiership to just survive, but to compete.
"We're nearly there regarding the squad – we're about three signings away."
Burnell revealed it was the pre-season trip to take part in the Singapore 10s that enabled Welsh to finalise the moves.
"It was an opportunity for us to see these top-class players in action first hand and, most importantly, speak to them in person," he said.
"I think it showed that we are a good bunch of people who are very serious about what we want to achieve."
And how difficult was it to persuade World Cup-winning scrum half Weepu to join?
"A few cheeky beers one night seemed to do the trick," Burnell joked.

Teva Men's Churn
Excellent shoe. Excellent shoes, period. Not just water shoes, but everyday walking shoes. In fact I have been wearing almost nothing but these Teva Churns for about five years now. Almost have worn out one pair and set them aside for work shoes like digging in the garden or whatever dirty work. Wearing a pair now that is about 1.5 to 2 years old and have two more pairs still brand new in the box waiting on deck for when my daily pair wears out. I have yet in 5 years even worn them in the water… Full review
Salomon Women's Techamphibian 3
This is a fast drying water shoe great for hiking or cycling. I originally got these for hiking the Zion Narrows trail a couple of years ago. They worked great for that purpose. They had decent traction on slick rock, dried relatively quickly and they nicely protected my toes while still being well ventilated for hot weather. For the same reason I have worn them canoeing and on cycling tours. After being caught in a total downpour on my bike, the next morning I woke up at my campsite and the shoes… Full review
Chota "STL" Plus Wading Boot WW350
Very good, durable, and comfortable wading boot. Very high quality at a fair price. These boots are very comfortable, durable, stylish, and modestly priced for a product of its quality. They are very easy to get on and off over neoprene stocking feet waders. Their elastic quick lace system secures boot in a matter of seconds. The fit and support are exceptional, allowing for comfort both in and out of the stream. Felt soles are premium quality and stay attached to the uppers for many seasons of… Full review
Keen Women's Turia Water Shoes
Ture to KEEN quality! True to KEEN quality. I have two colors of KEEN sandals. Did you know KEEN will send new stretchy lace ties along with instructions - free of charge - to replace broken laces?! Love these for canoeing/ kayaking and beach walking. Only problem is the occaisional river stick that pokes it's way into a space and then your foot! But I still like them, despite errant stick attacks! Full review

I've been wearing 5 Fingers for years...must have 7 or 8 pairs around, Classics, KSOs and Treks. I've worn them to concerts, backpacked in them miles and miles (40 lb pack)...they are my footwear of choice. They were originally designed as deck shoes btw...explaining the razor cut soles...and yes they're great for that as well. After reading… Full review
Vibram Men's FiveFingers KSO
I really like these minimalist shoes for trail running, paddling, and casual wear. They take time to get used to, but once I embraced the minimalist mindset in footwear, they have become a regular part of my outdoor gear. I purchased these shoes when I took up trail running. I had previously purchased and worn minimalist shoes for road races and half marathons and liked how they felt and functioned. I decided to take them on a river canoeing trip last spring and wore them all day, everyday. In my… Full review
Mountrek Cascade Water
These shoes are nearly as expensive as Keens, but with much worse construction and no way to contact the company. I purchased these shoes on sale at Bass Prop Shops awhile ago. They were about 50% off and I had been looking for a pair of shoes with a thick sole that were also great for wearing in the water and these fit the bill. About one month later I wore them on a hike including some mud in the Everglades. There is a bar inside the sole about halfway down that can be very uncomfortable and… Full review
Columbia Men's Drainmaker
Great shoe. Very comfortable shoe from the beginning. I bought this shoe to use while fishing, didn't want my feet staying wet all day and had no need for waders. So far it has done the job extremely well. Regularly wear this shoe during everyday activities and is one of my all-time favorites. Full review
Vibram Women's FiveFingers KSO
Love these shoes. These are about as bare as you can get. I wear these for jogging, yoga and the gym. Not meant for marathon running. Not resistant to rain. I prefer to not wear socks, ever. These shoes are very comfortable and fit snug, which I like. They are not meant for more than light running, yoga or at the gym. I also find them very comfortable the day after a night in my heels. I would recommend to break them in a couple of times for your toes to get used to the new space if you have never… Full review

New internet address endings could include .sucks, .sex and .porn, according to a list of domain name submissions.
A full list of applications for new generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) names, which will be additions to the existing .com, .org, .co.uk, has been published by the organisation co-ordinating the expansion.
British applicants to Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann) include the BBC, which has applied for .bbc, high street chain Boots, which has applied for .boots and Land Rover, which as applied for .landrover.
Others include .scot by Dot Scot Registry and .wales and .cymru by Nominet.
The domain name .sucks has been requested by two companies - Top Level Spectrum Inc. and Vox Populi Registry Inc.
The more risque .sex also has two requests - from Internet Marketing Solutions Limited and ICM Registry, who also asked for .porn.
Uniregistry Corp. has put a bid in for .sexy.
Big companies including Google, Microsoft and Amazon have applied for multiple domain names.
Among Google's requests are .google, .gmail, .hangout .youtube, and .and.
The search giant also requested .music but has competition from Amazon and six other organisations.
Other popular gTLDs attracting multiple requests include .group, .art and .shop Icann said that it had received 1,930 requests for its first round of new domain names from 60 countries.
More than 900 of the applications were from North America, with more than 650 from Europe and just 17 from Africa.
It cost 185,000 dollars (£118,800) to submit an application but there was a support programme for needy applicants, Icann said.
Anyone with an objection to any of the claims can lodge their complaint within the next seven months.
Speaking at a press conference in London, Rod Beckstrom, president and CEO of Icann, said he expected some of the requests to be challenged.
"Some names might be provocative, some might be controversial to some but not to others. We expect challenges."
Icann said it hopes the first batch of new domains will be allocated in the first quarter of 2013.

Friday Five: Reno
The "Biggest Little City in the World" is known today more for casinos. Country music knows it still for being a key piece to the wild frontier. Perhaps that's partially because the Reno Brother Gang (no relation to the city) pulled off the first train robbery. Even today, the history of red light districts, brothels, shoot-outs, ghost towns, silver strikes and cowboy/Indian conflicts all help define the city. Here are just a few of our favorite songs that mention Reno.
5. Jason Eady – "Promises In Pieces"
This great story-song tells the sad tale of the protagonist getting away with the shooting of a Wells Fargo bank teller, and then having his friend take the fall for it.
4. Doug Supernaw – "Reno"
Off of Red and Rio Grande, this 1993 single made it up to #4 on the charts.
3. Waylon Jennings – "Reno and Me"
Jennings had this little-heard gem on his 1990 album, The Eagle. It's co-written by Kevin Welch.
2. Dottie West – "Reno"
This 1968 single was a Top 20 hit for the beautiful Dottie West.
1. Johnny Cash – "Folsom Prison Blues"
"I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die." There could be no bigger lyric in all of country music.
5 Comments
Also good: "Reno, Nevada," as done by early Fairport Convention (you can see that on You Tube) or in its original version by the guy who wrote it, Richard Farina, as heard here:
I *love* that Jason Eady song.
Really? No "Reno Bound?" No "Philadelphia Lawyer?"
Ok; good point! Here's the Maddox Bros & Rose with Woody Guthrie's Reno-based "Philadelphia Lawyer":
" 'I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.' There could be no bigger lyric in all of country music."
And why Johnny Cash is sitting in a California State Prison in for shooting a man in Nevada is one of those great mysteries of life!

One thing all auto shows seem to have in common these days are scantily-clad spokesmodels showing off the cars. But using sex appeal to sell cars dates back nearly as far as the car itself.

IndyCar: Andretti adds fifth car for GP of Indy for Franck Montagny
Apr 23, 2014, 10:18 AM EDT
File this one into the "Lucas Luhr to Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing out-of-left-field" style of Verizon IndyCar Series announcements.
Andretti Autosport, which is ramping up for a fairly big month of May anyway with a fifth car for Kurt Busch to join its usual four in the Indianapolis 500, and also has entries in Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tire, Pro Mazda Presented by Cooper Tire and Red Bull Global Rallycross, will run the fifth IndyCar at the May 8-10 Grand Prix of Indianapolis for Frenchman Franck Montagny.
Commercial partners were not announced for the No. 26 Honda, but this does mark a reunion between Montagny, Andretti Autosport and HPD.
Montagny has made two career North American open-wheel starts. He finished second in the April 2008 Champ Car series finale at Long Beach, and made a one-off start for Andretti, in an AFS partnership, in the team's fifth car at the 2009 race in Sonoma.
He's also worked with the team in sports cars, when Andretti ran the Acura ARX-01b in 2008. Montagny has 12 career starts in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, most recently in 2012 with OAK Racing, after the Peugeot factory team withdrew prior to the start of that season.
"I am very happy to be back with Andretti Autosport; I have already felt 'at home' during my visits," Montagny commented. "Participating in the Grand Prix of Indianapolis in the temple of motorsport that is the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is a true moment of happiness."
The addition brings the GP of Indy car count up to 25, with second cars at Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (Oriol Servia) and A.J. Foyt Racing (Martin Plowman) entered to join the full-season 22.
Andretti's fifth car finished second in the 2013 Indianapolis 500 with rookie Carlos Munoz (pictured right).

Everybody's walkin'
It's spring strolling weather, but you don't have to sacrifice style or comfort
I thought the day would never come when the sidewalks would finally be free of ice and snow -- and now I feel like I'm making up for lost time by strolling around the city at every opportunity, just like pretty much every other Winnipegger.
Which brings me to the age-old question -- function or fashion? Let's face it, while strappy sandals and funky wedges look fantastic, they aren't always practical when out for a walk. One could argue trainers are the way to go, but they're kind of lacking in style.
The question of fashion or function becomes even more challenging if you have to factor in things like walking aids or sticks -- which are, let's face it, pretty clinical-looking.
I was recently introduced to two fashionable and functional lines catering to both challenges: Pluggz, comfortable and stylish walking shoes; and Top & Derby, sleek, architecturally designed canes.
According to the people at Pluggz, their shoes are designed with proprietary technology that allows the Earth's electrons to be absorbed through the soles of the shoe, making it feel as if you are walking on soft sand or grass, which can make you feel more balanced, energized and with fewer aches and pains.
Pluggz are also great for the style-conscious soul. Their collection of casual ballet flats feature floral cut-out leather in fun, bright colours -- perfect for spring.
For those looking for something a little dressier, there is also a collection of classic ballet flats in rich metallic tones with contrasting patent leather toe caps.
Top & Derby is a Winnipeg company determined to bring the walking stick, which has gone from being stylishly crafted to cold and utilitarian, back to its glory days as a fashion accessory.
The Chatfield walking stick at Top & Derby is simple and sleek. It features a smooth, silicone-coated handle in three shades -- Lights-Out Black, Crybaby Blue and On-the-Vine Red -- paired with a rich, black walnut shaft that tapers at the bottom.
What I like about these walking sticks is that they are not over-the-top and garish, but streamlined and sophisticated, making them ideal for all ages -- from your grandparents to your friend who just had foot surgery or that injured ball player stuck in a boot.
For more information on these sensible style options you can check out www.pluggz.com and www.topandderby.com.

Watch Miley Cyrus Cover Lana Del Rey's 'Summertime Sadness'
November 12, 2013 3:57 PM
For her session with BBC's Radio 1 Live Lounge, Miley Cyrus tried her hand at Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness." Though she didn't stray too far from the original, Miley makes it all her own and frankly, out-sings Lana.
Miley, keeping things demure in all black, picks up where "Wrecking Ball" left off and finds her sweet spot on the ballad. With help from her backup singers, Miley, in all her gravel-voiced glory, makes the line, "I just wanted you to know/That baby you're the best" more than just a compliment.

The Dallas Cowboys are flush with former Oklahoma State players, and one them had high praise for a former Stillwater teammate, according to the to the Dallas Morning News.
Brandon Weeden: Dez Bryant has 'grown a whole lot' since college
"I could tell the first day when I came in the locker room, compared to six or seven years ago, he had grown a whole lot," Brandon Weeden said about former OSU teammate Dez Bryant. "He is making good decisions off the field, doing the right things. He's always been a great guy, never been a problem child. But he's growing up. He's maturing. I wouldn't expect anything less. He knows he has to."
Weeden has only been with the Cowboys a few months after being released by the Cleveland Browns in March, but he hasn't wasted time speaking highly of Bryant in Dallas' organized team activities. Weeden says Bryant is the same freak on the field he was in college.
And in a funny quote, Bryant recalls his first encounter with Weeden at OSU.
"I was like, 'Man, he's driving a BMW.' Driving a black BMW, a black 745," Bryant said. "Remember seeing him get out of the car in the parking lot, and I was like, 'Damn, how did he get that?' Somebody had told me that he had played baseball.
"I'm left-handed, too. I should've been working on my pitch game."
