Would you like me to write a persuasive essay on how you should let me suck your dick?
Naturally, I just peed all over the floor. Two guys in front of me looked at me, but i just shrugged. They won't remember either.
I had five suicidal voicemails from him when I woke up this morning. They all started and ended with "DON'T FUCK MY ROOMMATES".
morning after pill = breakfast in bed
who knew that a girl that let me piss on her within 20 minutes of meeting her would get upset i couldn't remember her name.
He asked me why my bellybutton was so ugly... and wondered why i wasnt in the mood anymore.
if he wont fuck me on the stairamster then i dont think theres much XXX shit going down
So... i mean if they do have cameras in his apartment buildings pool room atleast we gave them a little show.
went for icecream. accidentally deepthroated it. my mom gave me a dirty look, but the kid behind the counter looked impressed
I have to verbally tell you. He looks good on paper...but he totally fails in person. Like communism.
he aimed his bare ass at the sparkler, farted, and it really did work...i love 4th of july anal fire works
i know you like preteen girls so i'm gonna offer you some advice...dump a bucket of glitter on yourself and walk into the sunlight. they will come running.
So for a second i just thought clitoris was a disease.
i just got cum up my nose. i would have expected more from the captain of the men's lacrosse team
Hairspray is covering 85% of my body. Help.

Android/IOS tablets do not count when measuring PC OS market share - they are not classified as "personal computers" and cannot be factored in to market share statics. I'm not arguing that Android/IOS tables are eating into PC market share - they absolutely are. But that just shrinks the overall market, it doesn't much change who dominates that market. For a car analogy, saying Android/IOS tablets sales are dethroning Windows is like stating a surge in bicycle sales is stealing market share from Ford pick-ups. I assure you, Scwinn has nothing to do with Ford's slipping position in the light-duty truck market.
All statistics that you can find on various sites show that each of Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 8.1 individually hold more market share than all non-Windows OSes combined. On some sites, Windows 7 by itself holds more market share than all other Windows versions AND all non-Windows OSes combined. No non-Windows OS even comes near 10% market share.
"Reign supreme" means to dominate. Windows CLEARLY dominates PC OS market share. To claim otherwise just shows your ignorance.
...The support tech at Century Link was completely unaware that this was even possible.
Yes, capitalization is a wonderful tool. I love capitalization, too.
Oh wait...
It has axles, they are just hard to see from a distance. You can seen them in the unveiling photos on AT's website.

Philly Fed Business Outlook: General Activity Index Goes Negative
September 17, 2015
by Jill Mislinski
The Philly Fed's Business Outlook Survey is a monthly report for the Third Federal Reserve District, covers eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and Delaware. While it focuses exclusively on business in this district, this regional survey gives a generally reliable clue as to direction of the broader Chicago Fed's National Activity Index.
The latest gauge of General Activity came in at -6.0, down significantly from last month's 8.3. The 3-month moving average came in at 2.7, down from 9.7 last month. Since this is a diffusion index, negative readings indicate contraction, positive ones indicate expansion. The Six-Month Outlook was up at 44.0, versus the previous month's 43.1.
Today's -6.0 came in well below the 6.0 forecast at Investing.com.
Here is the introduction from the Business Outlook Survey released today:
Manufacturing conditions in the region were mixed in September, according to firms responding to this month's Manufacturing Business Outlook Survey. The indicator for general activity fell into negative territory, but indicators for new orders, shipments, and employment remained positive. Evidence suggests that the responses regarding general activity that were received earlier in the month may have been negatively affected by the volatility in the stock market and international news reports. Firms reported essentially unchanged prices for raw materials and other inputs in September and slight declines in prices for their own products. The survey's indicators of future activity remained near their readings in August, indicating that firms expect a continuation of growth in the manufacturing sector over the next six months. (Full Report)
The first chart below gives us a look at this diffusion index since 2000, which shows us how it has behaved in proximity to the two 21st century recessions. The red dots show the indicator itself, which is quite noisy, and the 3-month moving average, which is more useful as an indicator of coincident economic activity. We can see periods of contraction in 2011 and 2012 and a shallower contraction in 2013. The indicator is now above its post-contraction peak in September of last year.
In the next chart we see the complete series, which dates from May 1960. For proof of the high volatility of the headline indicator, note that the average absolute monthly change across this data series is 7.7.
The next chart is an overlay of the General Activity Index and the Future General Activity Index — the outlook six months ahead.
For comparison, here is the latest ISM Manufacturing survey.
Let's compare all five Regional Manufacturing indicators.Here is a three-month moving average overlay of each since 2001 (for those with data).
Here is the same chart including the average of the five. Readers will notice the range in expansion and contraction between all regions - this averages out to approximately zero for the average, which is flat and neither expanding nor contracting.
Here are the remaining four monthly manufacturing indicators that we track:
Texas Manufacturing Outlook Survey (TMOS)
Kansas City Manufacturing Survey
Empire State Manufacturing Survey
Fifth District Manufacturing Survey (Richmond)

Cloud Assassin
By Opetopic
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Cloud Assassin is a social, photo snapping game inspired by the real-life game Assassin.
• Invite a group of friends to play.
• Players are assigned a random target.
• It is your job to take your target "out" by covertly snapping their photo.
• Last assassin standing wins!
We've added an extra twist to the game. You are allowed to see your target's last known location, but in doing so you give up your location to your assassin. Use it when you need a hint, but keep an eye out for suspicious friends.
What's New in Version 1.1
* Share photos! Post your favorite photos to Twitter and Facebook. Also, coming soon: share entire games!
* International support finally! Now people outside the US can register and invite friends!
* Misc. bug fixes and improvements.

Good but could be better
The game is fun and all specially with a big group of people that want to play. Some things that would make it so much better would be:
Finding a way to make is so it actually has to be a picture of the person. Not just anything.
Also starting the game is hard because everyone is under secret agent man even if I have added them and played them before. So I have to switch between the game and my contacts to get the right people.
Other than those the game is fun and interesting. :)
Don't get.
With the current upgrades to iOS, the app freezes when adding a required photo.
Awesome Game
This game is a ton of fun. I started it at school and now everyone is walking around the halls checking their backs and running to class. A little helpful criticism that I've noticed while playing the game that could make it better:
1. I like the idea about a Facebook/ Twitter connection, I had to get a lot of people's numbers that I didn't have to start a big enough game so that it would be fun.
2. I've also noticed that some people who download the game have troubles receiving the confirmation code, I don't know if you could troubleshoot that or not.
3. An established set of rules would be nice too. I have a couple of people that decide to draw pictures of the person and take a picture of that, or the picture is so blurry you can't tell who was in it and who wasn't. They just make the game less fun, so a set of rules to play by would be a great thing to have.
Other than that, I'm very impressed with the games design, you guys really put some time into it and it looks awesome. Hope you take all this into consideration in the next update!

Do The Democrats Have A Reason To Cheer Tea Party Victory?
On Sept. 14, the last big round of this year's primaries was held from the District of Columbia to Wisconsin. It appears that, once again, ultra-conservatives managed to trump mainstream Republicans in many states, but some commentators fear this may be good news for the Democrats.
Snoops In The Trash
Government snoops are now checking your garbage and there's no end the mischief that can lead to. Local municipalities have begun putting low-power radio frequency identifiers (RFIDs) in garbage cans to monitor their resident's recycling efforts. If some government bureaucrat decides you aren't making enough recyclable trash you'll receive a $100 fine in Cleveland.
Conservatives Blast GOP, Cheer Tea Party Success
Tuesday's slew of Tea Party candidates' primary victories may have stunned and upset some Republicans, but there are many conservatives who have been energized by these results. They have also blasted GOP leaders for not understanding how angry and disappointed many voters are with their policies.
Do You Really Know The Constitution?
Today is Constitution Day — a day specifically designated by an Act of Congress when Americans are supposed to honor the remarkable document that created our system of government. The act that created Constitution Day mandates that all publicly-funded educational institutions provide educational programming on the history of the American Constitution on that day. Here's a little test to see how well the schools have done…

Everyday Symbolist
May 05, 2003
Èdouard Vuillard: Post-Impressionist Master (National Gallery of Art; Montreal Museum of Fine Arts) Symbolism, an apotheosis of personal expression that swept through all the arts at the end of the nineteenth century, marked Europe's final break with the classical humanism of the Renaissance. The struggles for romantic independence that had animated artists, writers, and musicians in France, Germany, and England for more than a hundred years emboldened the Symbolists to follow their sensations wherever they might lead.
White Lie
April 21, 2003
Who's next? As Saddam Hussein's regime crumbled this week, that was the question being asked by commentators across the globe. And, when Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld took to his podium to declare that the United States would hold Syria "accountable" for its weapons shipments to Iraq—a charge backed up by Secretary of State Colin Powell—it seemed the Bush team had finally provided the answer.
Small Fries
April 21, 2003
The House of Representatives has not exactly risen to meet our present world-historical moment. After France opposed invading Iraq this winter, congressional Republicans acted like a petulant band of Bill O'Reillys. French fries were replaced in House cafeterias by "freedom fries," conservatives tried to kill a contract with a French firm to feed U.S. Marines, and a Colorado representative demanded an end to the use of French-made headstones at Arlington National Cemetery. These were largely symbolic, if infantile, gestures.

New York Diarist: United We Fall
March 03, 2003
Not since that lofty spiritualist Dag Hammarskjold has there been a U. N. secretary-general whom the worthy have so taken to their bosoms. A great moral aura attaches to Kofi Annan, even though--as a lesser U.N. official in both bloody Bosnia and bloodier Rwanda--he kept armed multinational forces under his command from impeding the macabre work of mass murderers. But, at the Secretariat, the salient comparisons are to ex-Nazi Kurt Waldheim. So it is not surprising that Annan considers himself the embodiment of all that is virtuous in world affairs.
Smart Money

In George W. Bush's post-September 11, 2001, vision, our nation faces serious risks only if it fails to use decisively our vast military power. We are, after all, the world's hyperpower, the country whose military capacity outranks that of the next 20 nations combined. According to Bush, that power can be translated into national security, if we are steadfast enough to use it, by carrying the war on terrorism to the terrorists and to rogue states like Iraq.

Does Poverty Cause Terrorism?

I. That investment in education is critical for economic growth, improved health, and social progress is beyond question.

'Taxis on Patrol' to help Ark. officers fight crime
The program allows cab drivers to record and report crimes to the police
By PoliceOne Staff
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.—A new program will train taxicab drivers to record and report crimes to police, with the aid of dash cams and GPS tracking.
Yellow Cab Taxi Service has paired with the Little Rock Police Department as part of the "Taxis on Patrol" program.
"This working relationship between our dispatch functions, our law enforcement officers and first responders with witnesses who know what to look for and how to report it can only help us," Little Rock Police Chief Stuart Thomas told Today's THV.
Little Rock Yellow Cab President Ellis Houston said cameras are installed in more than 100 taxis. They can see what is going on inside and outside of the cab. He said drivers are trained not to intervene but to report what they see to their dispatcher and police.
The program launched in Birmingham, Ala., Oct.23, and Biloxi, Miss. a week before. It has been successful in more than 40 states.

Good Technical Practice
A Maryland man found guilty of dumping more than 100 cans of paint has been ordered to pay a fine and perform community service, according to authorities.
Todd A. Beans, 21, of Riva, MD, pleaded guilty Tuesday (Jan. 22) to illegally dumping 109 containers of latex paint along Anne Arundel County highways, Maryland's Office of the Attorney General reported.
More than 100 paint cans were dumped along county highways in the case.
Beans was sentenced to a 30-day jail sentence that was suspended and ordered to pay a $500 fine and perform 100 hours of community service for dumping the paint waste. He was also placed on probation for one year, the attorney general's office said.
Authorities said Beans had been hired by an Edgewater, MD-based painting contractor to transport frozen paint to a local landfill.
"We can protect the health and safety of our environment by properly disposing of pollutants such as paint," said Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler. "This is a great example of what happens when residents report environmental hazards and then state and local authorities respond together to address them."
Complaints Spark Investigation
The case dates back to Feb. 9, 2012, when the Anne Arundel County Highways Department responded to illegal dumping complaints at three separate locations in the Riva and Edgewater areas.
Crews found a total of 109 cans of latex paint dumped on the travelled portions of the roadways. The labels on the containers led authorities to the distributors, through which the Maryland Department of the Environment's Emergency Response Division was able to identify the purchaser as being Cypress Paint Systems, the attorney general's office said.
Investigation by the Attorney General's Environmental Crimes Unit further revealed that Cypress' owners had hired Beans to transport paint that had become frozen to a local landfill for $150.
Beans allegedly returned to the office claiming that he had taken care of the unwanted paint and collected the money.
After the company was advised of the dumping, Beans admitted responsibility.
Cypress Paint Systems did not return a call for more information.

Wednesday 8:00 PM on FOXIn Season
Post anything to do with these 2 episodes here & no where else in the forum!!
Miley Cyrus as the mentor? You have to be kidding me!
My Top picks -1. Siobhan 2. Didi 3. Casey 4. Aaron
I still don't see the appeal of Crystal zzz I just don't get it sorry. Its not that I don't think she can't sing I just don't get the big fuss.
I thought they were a bit harsh on Tim. I actually didn't think he sounded that bad. At least he wasn't shaky all over the place like Paige was with her song. He did at least try something different and have fun moving around on stage to get the crowd going. Unlike the karaoke likes of Paige and Katie. Katie was horrible she ruined Fergies song awful!
1. Crystal - It finally happened. I ranked her number 1 :O
2. Aaron - He's gaining momentum. He's gaining fans. The judges tease him. What's not to like?
3. Siobhan - One of her worst, still one of the few good performances of last night.
4. Lee - Didn't see that coming. I hated the beginning but by the end I liked it.
5. Casey - I liked him on this.
6. Didi - Curse you judges... She wasn't bad! Compare it to (shiver) Paige's performance...!
7. Katie - I actually liked around 30 seconds of the performance.
8. Mike - I forget.
9. Tim - The slide, and the fact that I can't stand Andrew, boosts him up to this spot.
10. Andrew - See above.
11. Paige
(She gets to description.)
Last night failed.
I'm not even going to rank who I liked and whatnot, cuz they all stunk, with the exceptions of Siobhan, Crystal, Casey, and Lee.
Next week, Tim going would be great. kthnxbai
PS. Tyler Grady is performing near me tomorrow! Going to see him.
Thank the sharks Paige is gone. I was getting completely sick of that girl. Murdering Phil Collins and Mariah Carey at the same time should be illegal.
As for Tim, meh. His time's running out, but I think he'll be with us for at least one more week, unless he totally blows it.
Seems every season there is always one or two singers who are simply popular but are not deserving in terms of singing ability, let alone personality.
This year, it's Tim Urban...That smiling dolt continues to glide through when better singers have dropped...Very strange
Sad to say but Garcia is beginning to appear to be a one hit wonder, as well...Guy is drowning out there...Can't believe this is the same guy we saw in Hollywood with that sweet version of Straight up
Seems like a redux of Sanjaya Malakar.
As for Doughboy Garcia, he can go whenever. That last performance was very laughable.

Parsing Word Document XML via MsXml in VBA
An old friend ping me because while having some success loading word documents saved as xml in his VBA routines in word, he was having massive problems getting XPATH to work. I resolved the basic issue and then asked him to give me his hardest issue for me to show some example code for. I think that the last time that I did this was a few years ago, MsXml was (and is) a bit lame compared to later implementations, so his troubles were very reasonable to have.
Declaring name spaces
You can't use XPath on a document with namespaces without providing the name spaces. The process is pretty simple, just convert the namespaces declare at the top of the XML document to a VB String. There happen to be many of them in a word xml document..
Dim domPrefix As String
domPrefix = "xmlns:wpc='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingCanvas' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:mc='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:o='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:r='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:m='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/math' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:v='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wp14='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingDrawing' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wp='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/wordprocessingDrawing' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:w10='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:w='http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:w14='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordml' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:w15='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2012/wordml' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wpg='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingGroup' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wpi='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingInk' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wne='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2006/wordml' " domPrefix = domPrefix + "xmlns:wps='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingShape'"
The next item is just loading the xml file, this was his existing code and worked fine
Set xmlDoc = New MSXML2.DOMDocument60 xmlDoc.validateOnParse = False xmlDoc.async = False xmlDoc.Load sFile If Not xmlDoc.Load(sFile) Then 'strXML is the string with XML' sErr = xmlDoc.parseError.ErrorCode & " " & xmlDoc.parseError.reason GoTo errXML End If
The next item was just setting two properties on the xmlDoc (unlike later implementations, there was no XmlNameSpaceManager needed). The key one is using the domPrefix string from above.
xmlDoc.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", domPrefix xmlDoc.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath"
So if he wanted to find all of the tables, it was a simple:
Dim foundNodes As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNodeList Set foundNodes = xmlDoc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("//w:tbl")
His tough problem
He wanted to find all images in the document, obtain their dimensions and the associated file name, plus some related stuff. The code was pretty clean to write with xPath, as shown below
' Find the actual drawing nodswe Set foundNodes = xmlDoc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("//w:drawing") Debug.Print foundNodes.Length & " Drawings found" iNode2 = 1 For Each node In foundNodes Debug.Print "Image #" & iNode2 'We search from this node Set node2 = node.SelectSingleNode(".//wp:extent") Debug.Print node2.Attributes(0).BaseName & "=" & node2.Attributes(0).NodeValue Debug.Print node2.Attributes(1).BaseName & "=" & node2.Attributes(1).NodeValue Set node2 = node.SelectSingleNode(".//wp:docPr") Debug.Print node2.Attributes(2).BaseName & "=" & node2.Attributes(2).NodeValue 'Directly finding parent p node does not appear to be supported so.. Set node3 = node.ParentNode Do While node3.BaseName <> "p" Set node3 = node3.ParentNode Loop Set node2 = node3.SelectSingleNode(".//w:pStyle") Debug.Print node2.Attributes(0).BaseName & "=" & node2.Attributes(0).NodeValue iNode2 = iNode2 + 1 Next node

Merging two AspNet Profiles–more complex then one would think!
During recent code revision, a developer accidentally removed in Web.Config, the applicationName on the SQLProfileProvider element. The consequence became apparent when support started to report customers saved-reports-definitions(which was stored here) had disappeared.
<add name="ErrorProfileProvider" connectionStringName="LocalSQLServer" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" />
The problem was identified, but there was a second problem… We had a significant number of new customers that also saved reports-definitions to this error profile provider. A simple switch back by adding the applicationName would mean that these reports-definitions would disappear (which customer support did not want to see happen to new customers – a rather bad experience).
My initial take was "Oh, I have used multiple membership providers in one web application in the past, so we just need to use the same pattern…"
- Oops that pattern did not work, Grrr.
- Searching stackoverflow and other sites, did not find any "canned solutions".
- We looked at trying to merge the data in SQL Server, it could be done – but the TSQL code was complicated and would require major setup in QA to test properly. Not a good scenario for an agile solution.
What I ended up doing was my original pattern but I had to go to lower level coding to do it (i.e. using inherited classes features).
First, I indeed put multiple profiles in web.config as was my original plan:
<profile inherits="AdminConsole.CustomProfile" defaultProvider="GoodProfileProvider" enabled="true"> <providers> <clear /> <add name=GoodProfileProvider" applicationName="/Admin Console" connectionStringName="LocalSQLServer" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" /> <add name="ErrorProfileProvider" applicationName="/" connectionStringName="LocalSQLServer" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" /> </providers> </profile>
The next step was to write a method (ProfileMerge) that would be called when users logged in. I added it as a static in my profile class. The code is below, the basic steps were:
- Check if the customer has two profiles, if not and only the correct one – then we are done
- Otherwise just move one into the other "in bulk"
- Next we need to check when the last update happened, the old one was off line, so
- Older then error one – we need to update
- Newer – we have already updated (No need to create a "updated" field to track this)
- We used inherited classes to call GetPropertyValues so we can process the information as collections.
- We walked the ErrorData (the recently created saved-reports-definitions) to find any recent definitions that we needed to merge into the old profile data. When we found one, we called a merging routine (specific to how the reports were being saved)
- Once all of this was done, we set the results into the good profile and returned. The profile was already being saved in the calling code, so there was not a need to do an explicit save.
public class CustomProfile : ProfileBase { public static void ProfileMerge(string userName, bool isForced) { try { if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(userName)) return; int total = 0; var profile = CustomProfile.Create(userName); if (profile==null || profile.IsAnonymous) return; var errorPM = (SqlProfileProvider)System.Web.Profile.ProfileManager.Providers["ErrorProfileProvider"]; if (errorPM == null) return; var errorDate = DateTime.MaxValue; foreach (ProfileInfo item in errorPM.FindProfilesByUserName(ProfileAuthenticationOption.Authenticated, userName, 0, 1, out total)) { errorDate = item.LastUpdatedDate; } var goodPM = (SqlProfileProvider)System.Web.Profile.ProfileManager.Providers["GoodProfileProvider"]; if (goodPM == null) { //Should never occur AdminConsole.Diagnostics.SplunkLogger.Fatal("Profile not found for " + userName); return; } // If date is in the future, there is no data to merge if (errorDate > DateTime.Now) return; // Already done the update BUT allow manual repeat if needed. if (profile.LastUpdatedDate > errorDate && ! isForced) return; var errorData = errorPM.GetPropertyValues(profile.Context, CustomProfile.Properties); var goodData = goodPM.GetPropertyValues(profile.Context, CustomProfile.Properties); foreach (SettingsPropertyValue item in errorData) { if(item.PropertyValue !=null && ! String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace( item.PropertyValue.ToString())) switch (item.Name) { case "UserSavedFilters_Consumer": case "UserSavedFilters_TransactionUsage": case "UserSavedFilters": goodData[item.Name].PropertyValue= MergeStrings(item.Name,goodData[item.Name].PropertyValue.ToString(),item.PropertyValue.ToString()); break; } } goodPM.SetPropertyValues(profile.Context, goodData); } catch (Exception ex) { AdminConsole.Diagnostics.SplunkLogger.Error(ex); } } private static string MergeStrings(string name,string oldData, string newData) { var logEntry = new Dictionary<string, string>(); logEntry.Add("AP_name", name); logEntry.Add("AP_old", oldData); logEntry.Add("AP_current", newData); char[] spliter = { '$' }; if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(oldData)) return newData; if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(newData)) return oldData; var oldCollection = oldData.Split(spliter, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); var newCollection = newData.Split(spliter, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); var merge = new HashSet<String>(); foreach (string item in oldCollection) { if (!merge.Contains(item)) merge.Add(item); } foreach (string item in newCollection) { if (!merge.Contains(item)) merge.Add(item); } var result = new StringBuilder(); foreach (string item in merge) { result.Append(item); result.Append("$"); } logEntry.Add("AP_result", result.ToString()); AdminConsole.Diagnostics.SplunkLogger.Debug(logEntry); return result.ToString(); }
You may have noted that I included an ability to ignore dates and force a merge. This was done to provide a backdoor mechanism for support if the unexpected happen. They could enter the userid on a dark page (only visible to them), and force the update to happened again (which would log the results of the merge so we could find why our code (and QA) had failed).
The good news is that the above has rolled into production and our QA person reports that customer service is happy because everything was returned as expected. We did not need to use our dark page.

Screenwriting: write what you don't know

Today, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes announced [PDF] plans for hearings on the NSA spying program. Investigations of this still-shadowy surveillance are long overdue, and we're hopeful that this is only the beginning of vigorous Congressional oversight.
In particular, Reyes' stated intention to dig into the telecommunications companies' role is encouraging. EFF has been fighting hard in the courts to hold AT&T accountable for violating its customers privacy and the law, and Congress must fulfill its duty to help uncover the truth about the telcos' collaboration with the government
But a threat still looms to judicial and Congressional scrutiny of the program. As we've previously reported, the Bush Administration has been pushing legislation that, among other things, appears intended to let the telcos off the hook. Telecommunications carriers' adherence to the law is the biggest practical check that we have against illegal government surveillance, and EFF strongly opposes any legislation that would deprive Americans of the remedies to which they are entitled. It would be especially irresponsible for Congress to pass any legislation before thoroughly investigating the program. (For more criticisms of the proposal, read our testimony [PDF] to the Senate Intelligence Committee.)
Reyes isn't the only representative turning up the heat on the Administration, and that goes to show that your letters and phone calls demanding investigations are getting through. Keep up the pressure -- visit our Action Center and make your voice heard.
There was some Slashdot buzz earlier this week about Microsoft Windows Media Center users suddenly facing restrictions forbidding playback of recorded analog cable TV content. Was DRM smuggled along with an "update" into unsuspecting users' machines?
In fact, Windows Media Center has always obeyed CGMS-A, a DRM system that TV stations can use. Pay-per-view, VOD, and premium channels like HBO can (and do) mark programming as "Copy Once" or "Copy Never." Tech creators are free to build DVRs and other devices that ignore CGMS-A signals and create restriction-free recordings, but Microsoft opted to kowtow to content providers and infect Media Centers with the DRM anyway. (You may recall that TiVo decided to cripple its DVRs so that they recognize a similar DRM flag developed by Macrovision.)
As if the deliberate use restrictions weren't bad enough, obeying CGMS-A has also caused technical errors and haphazard incompatibilities. Remember Windows' "blue screen of death," signaling an unexpected failure? DRM creates more ways for your system to fail -- your Media Center may work reliably today, but a software or hardware change could create unpredictable limitations.
According to PC World, this sort of technical problem probably led to the complaints featured on Slashdot. You can bet that this won't be the last time customers bump up against such problems both with CGMS-A and other DRM.
It's worth noting that the DRM can get even worse when it comes to digital cable. Media Center users can look forward to even more limits on streaming throughout their house, copying to portable devices, and other legitimate uses.
Just because Microsoft decided to obey CGMS-A doesn't mean you have to. You can look to PC DVR alternatives, and you can make DRM-free, analog-to-digital conversions of TV content using tools like the Neuros recorder that don't recognize CGMS-A.
In recent weeks a community of enthusiasts has developed a useful, and impressive, set of unauthorized enhancements to the Apple TV. These enhancements make this product work better for end users, and they exist in a great tradition of user innovation in which users who care about a product (and understand their own needs and desires) figure out how to make that product do something more. (The same kind of activity thrives around game console systems, and, of course, the TiVo -- sometimes to the chagrin of TiVo, Inc.)
Unfortunately, in today's digital media environment, users' improvements to products are often not welcomed by the manufacturers whose products are made more valuable. Instead of thanks, tinkerers often receive threats of litigation. Sometimes, the manufacturers spend hours of engineering effort to counteract and undo the users' improvements -- to break the new features that the users achieved and return the product to its original functionality. This may be a result of business strategy and a desire to avoid upsetting copyright holders. You may be the customer, but you may not have the last word if a copyright "partner" doesn't like what you've figured out how to do.
It's a bit disheartening, not to mention wasteful, to have all of your creative effort annulled by a "product upgrade" (or to be threatened with litigation if you continue to share it with others). That's why lots of people are excited about open systems that put the user in charge: when you add value to an open system, it's harder for someone to turn up and take it away from you. (That's one reason we've been excited about MythTV, the software that can turn your PC into a personal video recorder that you control, and why we're also excited to see what happens with the forthcoming open cell phone from OpenMoko.)
This point was recently emphasized in a nice essay by Neuros Technology, the company behind the MPEG recorder that uses the "analog hole" to cut through licensing and DMCA thickets and let you watch commercial video on a wide variety of portable devices -- today, not years from now after some consortium negotiates a complicated DRM deal. Neuros is also promoting an open media center; they publish schematics and code, and invite the community to figure out how to make the product better. That's a refreshing contrast to the attitude of many other electronics companies.
EFF is proud to have Neuros as a supporter, and we hope they continue to inspire the spread of the PC and Internet ethos of openness in the consumer electronics world.
Should ordinary Americans face jail time for attempted copyright infringement? Should the sort of property forfeiture penalties applied in drug busts also threaten P2P users, mixtape makers, and mash-up artists? Of course not, but the Department of Justice (DoJ) has drafted [PDF] an outrageous legislative proposal that applies these severe penalties and much more. Take action now to stop it.
Criminal copyright infringement already goes beyond situations involving large-scale commercial piracy. Thanks to laws like the No Electronic Theft (NET) Act and the Family Entertainment and Copyright Act (FECA), the federal government can now criminally charge (i.e., send to prison) people for simply uploading a single "pre-release" song (as two Ryan Adams fans discovered last year when they were brought up on federal charges for uploading tracks from pre-release promotional CDs).
Most of the DoJ's proposed changes to copyright's criminal provisions fall into two categories: (1) making it easier to convict people by eliminating the inconvenient necessity of proving that actual infringement took place, and (2) increasing the financial and confinement punishments. Law enforcement would also be allowed to use wiretaps and to spy on personal communications as part of copyright investigations. That potentially translates into wiretap authority for millions of American homes, since surveys show that 1 in 5 American Internet users downloads music and movies from P2P networks.
This guarantees one result: more costly, unnecessary, and draconian investigations and prosecutions funded by taxpayer dollars. Not only will this end up costing Americans tremendous amounts of time, money, and peace of mind, but it will also give law enforcement yet another opportunity to invade your privacy. All it takes is a single attempt to download the wrong file online.
Law enforcement already has enough tools to go after commercial pirates, and the entertainment industry has the tools to pay its own lawyers to sue infringers. Instead of wasting taxpayer dollars, Congress ought to be focusing on meaningful copyright reform that protects fans' rights to use creative material and supports new technologies.

Responding to Congressional pressure, the major label-backed licensing authority SoundExchange has offered small webcasters a temporary reprieve from the Copyright Royalty Board's outrageous royalty rate increase. This is a step in the right direction, but it still doesn't solve any of the underlying problems with the current licensing system. Music webcasting's future still hangs in the balance.
The offer announced today would essentially extend the much more reasonable statutory licensing terms that small webcasters have relied on for the last five years. But commercial services like Pandora and Live365 are still in deep trouble, as are small webcasters that may want to expand their business over time. And when SoundExchange's offer expires in 2010, small webcasters may once again be threatened with extinction.
The Internet Radio Equality Act would help sustain music webcasting and fix the statutory licensing process on which most nonsubscription, noninteractive music webcasters rely. For more on this bill and SoundExchange's offer, check out SaveNetRadio.org as well as Kurt Hanson's Radio And Internet Newsletter.
Update: David Oxenford, an attorney representing certain small webcasters, makes some important criticisms of the offer here.
On the heels of a letter from House Judiciary Committee leaders, Senate Judiciary Committee's heads Patrick Leahy and Arlen Specter wrote to the Attorney General demanding information about the illegal NSA domestic spying program:
"The Committee on the Judiciary is charged with overseeing and legislating on constitutional protections, civil and criminal justice, civil liberties, and the Judiciary, all subjects that this matter impacts. We intend to do our job.
"This Committee has made no fewer than eight formal requests over the past 18 months ? to the White House, the Attorney General, or other Department of Justice officials ? seeking documents and information related to this surveillance program. These requests have sought the Executive Branch legal analysis of this program and documents reflecting its authorization by the President. You have rebuffed all requests for documents and your answers to our questions have been wholly inadequate and, at times, misleading."
Read the whole letter here, and make sure your representatives know that you support immediate investigations into this still-shadowy program.
Can the government keep track of your whereabouts through your cell phone? Do they need a warrant or not? Location tracking by law enforcement is already becoming routine, and EFF has been fighting to make sure your privacy is protected.
This week, EFF Staff Attorney Kevin Bankston will be addressing these and other issues in a free online course offered through the State of Play Academy (SOPA), a virtual space for conversations about law and technology located in the virtual community There.com.
