Verizon May Buy Back as Many as 100 Million Shares
Verizon Communications Inc. said its board authorized a buyback of as many as 100 million shares, allowing the second-largest U.S. phone carrier to return cash to investors as smartphone demand boosts its earnings.
A buyback of the full amount would equal about 3.6 percent of outstanding shares and cost $3.62 billion at yesterday's closing price. The authorization is set to end Feb. 28, 2014, or when Verizon reaches 100 million shares, according to a statement from the New York-based company today.
Last week, Verizon forecast revenue growth for this year that topped analysts' estimates, as it sells more smartphones and wireless data plans. The company started selling Apple Inc.'s iPhone today, ending a monopoly AT&T Inc. had on the device in the U.S. since 2007. Still, Verizon's acquisition and debt-service spending may mean that it buys back few, if any, shares this year, said analysts including Shing Yin.
"We don't believe that a buyback can be modeled or hoped for any time soon," said Yin, of Citadel Securities LLC, in a note to investors today. "In recent years, an authorization does not necessarily translate in repurchase activity at Verizon."
Verizon must find ways to offset declining revenue from its landline business and may report negative cash flow from that unit this year, said New York-based Yin. The company also has committed to paying down debt at Verizon Wireless -- which it co-owns with Vodafone Group Plc -- and agreed to buy Terremark Worldwide Inc. for $1.4 billion, said Michael Nelson, an analyst with Mizuho Securities Co. in New York.
Verizon spokesman Bob Varettoni declined to comment on the timing of repurchases.
IPhone Boost
Sales and profit may jump as much as 8 percent this year if Verizon sells 11 million iPhones, Chief Financial Officer Fran Shammo said last week. AT&T said it activated more than 15 million iPhones last year.
Verizon also said it is canceling a previous stock-repurchase program set to end this month. The company had approval to buy about 60 million shares remaining under that authorization.
Verizon rose 22 cents to $36.38 in New York Stock Exchange composite trading at 4 p.m. The company's shares have gained 33 percent in the past 12 months.
AT&T, the largest U.S. phone company, said in December its board authorized it to buy back as many as 300 million shares with no expiration. That plan would cost the Dallas-based carrier $8.3 billion at yesterday's closing price.
U.S. companies are increasing spending on their own shares, according to data from Birinyi Associates Inc. Businesses announced $373.4 billion in stock-buyback authorizations in 2010, the fourth-highest annual level, according to the data.
Buyback announcements have fallen from a record $862.9 billion in 2007, when the Standard & Poor's 500 Index rallied to a record high, the Birinyi data show. Last year's figure is exceeded only by 2005, 2006 and 2007.

The staff was incredible. Hotel Employee were the most gracious of hosts, the food was wonderful. Dar Anika was a tranquil oasis in the midst of the chaos of the medina. It was wonderful to go out and explore, and then come back to such luxury a
The only thing we found to complain about was that the meal portions were too generous! The food was so good we kept eating and eating!
Free wifi let me stay in touch with the office (not that I wanted to). They arranged for a magnificent excursion to the mountains that was a highlight of our trip. For our flight home, they even packed a lunch for us!

i have just installed this plugin and i love it so far...just wondering if there's a way to have front end entered entries held for approval? i would prefer not to just leave it open, though i do want to allow for the public to add entries. just want to monitor it.
if its not possible yet to hold submissions for approval, is there a way to have it at least email me every time there is a submission, so i can check it to make sure its appropriate?

Know your history

To The Editor: A letter in the Jan. 18 paper referred to the Civil Rights Act under Lyndon Johnson as proof that the Democrats are the party that has most benefited black Americans. The writer is a bit deficient in his history.
The Democrats in Congress, by a large majority, voted against the Civil Rights Act. The Republicans were almost unanimous in their support. Had it been left to the Democrats, the measure would have failed.
I would also remind the writer that it was President Eisenhower, a Republican, who sent federal troops to integrate Little Rock Central High School, over the opposition of Governor Orville Faubus, a Democrat. This, of course, was due to a decision of the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren, another Republican.

I pray the organization receives more funding this is a valued program. I would not like to see the students hurt by not being able to attend Saundra's Haven.

1) A 9-passenger transportation van to transport the students from their schools to Saundra's haven facility. 2). Funding sources to provide more student enrichment activities and 3). Hiring more qualified teachers and staff.
One thing I'd also say is that...
The founder of this organization is 110% behind the mission of Saundra's Haven. Her passion is illustrated in the students, staff and visible to parents and community leaders.

For sports fans, 2013 was full of change, controversy and disappointment
It's not likely that any of the local sports teams want to repeat what they did in 2013. With the exception of some high school programs and local winter sports athletes, the past year was one of pain, change and disappointment.
Local teams baited fans with promising victories, only to disappoint in the biggest moments. The year was memorable in the controversies and chaos, but despite the disappointment, there were some performances worth celebrating. This is a list of the Deseret News Top 10 local sports stories for 2013.

2013 was a pretty sad year in the state. But the Lady Utes made it to the NIT Championship game, which should have been included in this article.

The best sports story of 2013 for the state of Utah was Ziggy and Star both being drafted in the first round and going on to have great rookie seasons. I guess Lone Peak basketball was pretty cool too. If RSL had won, that would have been really cool too, instead only somewhat cool. Other than that, it seems that the sports year was pretty "meh". The 3 FBS football programs are all pretty average (one is below average and this one happened to use luck to beat the two average ones making things even worse), the Division I teams are all average at best (with the one that should be the best out of the in-state programs severely under performing, especially in December). Finally, the NBA team in the state is in tanking mode. 2013 was horrible. Also no sports teams in the state really matter except for the Jazz, Real Salt Lake, NCAA Mens Basketball, NCAA Football, and (maybe) High School Mens Basketball and Football. That is why it is okay that the Lady Utes were not mentioned, they do not fall in to a sports category that is or should be deemed "important".

Lone Peak High School winning the basketball National Championship was probably
the #1 sports story last year. #2 would be the rise of Ziggy Ansah as the 5th
overall pick in the NFL draft.
Some other good stories:
BYU Men's Rugby winning back to back National Championships and #1 rankings (and 3rd National Championship in 5 yrs)
BYU Women's Soccer losing in the NCAA Quarterfinals
BYU Men's Volleyball playing in the National Championship game

"Catalina Island" Top 5 Page for this destination Avalon by AdriannaTex
Avalon Travel Guide: 131 reviews and 404 photos
Catalina Island is 22 miles off the coast of Los Angeles. My family and I are from San Diego and we have been visiting Avalon, Catalina every summer for years. This picture is a view from Avalon (the only inhabited city on Catalina Island) out to the water. We had a calf-building vertical climb to our house on the hill, but it was well worth the aches for the spectacular view.
Catalina is a great place for a weekend-getaway. The cost to ferry back and forth is minimal and you can leave from any of several ports in Southern California: Dana Point, San Pedro, & Long Beach. If you only have a weekend free and want to get away, this is a great place to visit.

El Salvador - Best Bank – Banco Agricola
With tiny El Salvadors dollarized economy tied closely
to the United States, banks struggled with the downturn along
with the broader economy. The trend may be reversing in spite
of another complicated year amid continued global economic
turmoil. Bancolombias Salvadoran affiliate, Banco
Agrícola, maintains a strong lead in El Salvadors
banking sector with 30.6% of the markets loans and 27.9%
of its deposits, keeping it ahead of international rivals HSBC,
Citi and Scotiabank. And while global economic challenges are
still weighing on the...

Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
This is a compilation that's being sold as a feature. The boxcover suggests there's some link to declining TV ratings as the inhabitants of Sinn City spend more time fucking than watching the junk on the tube. Despite the misleading blurb, there's still some hot sex due to the presence of megababes P.J. Sparxx and Nikki Sinn.

I got a 3rd DUI in California 5 years ago in 2007. Served 240 days in jail. Fines and 18 month DUI programed were waived, so I was not required by the court to complete these. I am no longer on probation and the 3 year suspension is long over with. I AM required by the DMV to complete the 18 month DUI classes, which is fine.... but given the fact that I cannot drive, it is not possible for me to reliably get to these classes. I have read that after 5 years from the last DUI that I can have my license re-instated if I: Get an IID installed, proof of enrollment in the DUI classes, and proof of insurance. The DMV told me though that since my DUI's were before the new laws that it does not apply to me, and I still have to do at least 1 year of classes. That does not seem right? What do I do?
Update: Called the DMV in Sacramento, they still say that I have to do at least 12 months of the classes before I become eligible for the IID. If I got my 3rd DUI this year, I would be able to get an IID. :/
Criminal Defense Attorney
The DMV is a mess. Its frustrating that because of a change in laws it would negatively affect you. Have you tried calling the DMV's "mandatory actions" department in Sacramento to see if there is anything they can do?
Yeah I called the "mandatory actions" department and they were the ones that told me that I do not apply to the new laws. I was told to call back by my divorce lawyer who is not a DUI lawyer, to try and speak with a supervisor as some of these people at the DMV may not be as informed as they should regarding this situation. Will try to call them again tomorrow. :/
DUI / DWI Attorney
That is not exactly right... however, I fear that there is more going on here. Talk to a good local DUI attorney for help. Expect to have to pay for legal services.
Of course, every DUI case is different and you should consult an experienced DUI defense attorney in your area with questions regarding your specific case. It is always in your best interest to have a good DUI attorney represent you when you have been arrested for a DUI.
Criminal Defense Attorney
The problem likely is that you were on probation for one of the priors at the time you picked up your 3rd.

I have been a patient with Dr. Orr through 2 ACL's and several other injuries in the past. Dr. Orr has put me back together each time and I'm better than before. I can't thank him enough! He is an excellent surgeon and I recommend him highly!
Terry is an outstanding orthopedic surgeon. I have found him to be excellent in his care and his concern for the patient. It's also impressive how he dedicates time to the athletes on the USST. Always available to these outstanding kids.
I would highly recommend Dr. Orr! I blew my ACL while skiing and every professional on the hill & any skier who had had similar injuries said "go see Terry Orr".He said I didn't need surgery but what was my lifestyle like.I told him I had moved to Tahoe to ski(100 days a season)hike & bike and as a 60 yr old I expected to keep doing the same into my 80-90's. So the brace given to me by the hill medic came off and exercises began. Six weeks later surgery and 12 PT sessions with daily exercises at home put me back on the ski hill, on my bike & hiking every day of the week. I couldn't be happier! That was 5 yrs ago and I just completed 103 days of skiing, & bike every day that I'm not hiking.
Just wanted to operate on me. Another doc gave me therapy and im good you know
Great doctor, knows his stuff

Is there a way to select posts based on a custom field?
For example, if I'm doing something like this:
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=1');
can I do something like this?
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=1&customfield=x');
I looked at the get_posts() function and the query_posts() function.
What I want to do is add a custom field to one post called "featured", set it to 1 on the desired post, and then be able to highlight that post on the hompage.
I also want to be able to select the 9 most recent posts that do not have featured set to 1.
Am I asking the impossible?

I just wanted to say great job on the plugin. I took the liberty to add a few new features on my site, wosko.us.
I went looking for a plugin awhile back to fulfill a simple requirement of mine - make it easy to keep my resume up to date. The hResume plugin has fulfilled this need. I had a few extra things I wanted to get out of it, such as export to PDF and experience tag clouds. These aren't, as far as I can tell, in the initial intentions of this plugin, but were beneficial to me.
Nice job and thanks!

Blue Note

Lucy Kaplansky
Though she once provided background vocals on recordings by Shawn Colvin and Nanci Griffith, New York-based singer-songwriter Lucy Kaplansky has long since established herself as a unique presence in the singer-songwriter world. The Red Thread (Red House) is a lush collection of five stunning originals written by Kaplansky and her husband, Richard Litvin and five covers (including James McMurtry's "Off and Running") that is infused with her significant life experiences of the past three years—from the events of 9-11 which she basically witnessed first-hand to the recent adoption of her infant daughter—and of the threads that connect all of us. And, as always, Kaplansky illuminates the proceedings with hints of alt.country and "new folk" sensibility that sets her apart from most of her contemporaries. And she calls on an A-list of guests to assist in punctuating her songs, including Richard Shindell with whom she has toured and recorded as part of Cry, Cry, Cry, Jonatha Brooke (The Story) and Eliza Gilkyson.

Breaker 19 CD Release Party
with Thrift Store Cowboys (from Lubbock) Unit 7 Drain and Young Edward
By Michael Henningsen
Friday, Sept. 24; Launchpad (21 and over, 9 p.m.): For what seems like the past 26 years, Breaker 19 have relied on that greezy, redneck mystique that separates the truckers from the real men. Only now, well into their third decade of existence, the Breaker boys have finally put a spit-shine on their debut record and released it at truckstops from here to Tulsa. Was it worth the wait? That depends. Do you prefer breakfast buffets that feature a minimum of four different styles of pork and fried bologna? Do you subscribe to the belief that a good cup of coffee needs to have "mud" at the bottom? Do you fear God as much as you fear homosexuals, Democrats and longhairs? Are you able to explain in detail how glow plugs work? Do you own any David Allen Coe cassettes? Did you have to look up the word "subscribe" in the dictionary just now? Yeah? Then Keep it On the Road was definitely worth the wait.

Tommy Emmanuel
with Simon Bruce
By Michael Henningsen
Sunday, Sept. 26; KiMo Theatre (all ages, 7:30 p.m.): Of the literally thousands of musicians I've seen live over the years, exactly two of them have rendered me impotent to accurately describe or explain their respective performances and techniques. One is flamenco maestro Paco de Lucía. The other is Australian guitarist Tommy Emmanuel.
Music Magnified
Leon Russell
By Michael Henningsen
Saturday, Sept. 25; El Rey Theater (21 and over, 9 p.m.): As a member of "The Wrecking Crew," producer/alleged murderer Phil Spector's legendary session band, Leon Russell contributed heavily to some of rock music's earliest and most enduring gems, recording with and writing songs for everyone from the Beach Boys to Ike and Tina Turner before scoring his first hit with Joe Cocker's version of "Delta Lady." The same year, 1970, Russell released his own eponymously-titled debut album, introducing rock listeners to an idiosyncratic blend of swamp boogie, blues, country and southern-fried rock that would later make bands like the Doobie Brothers household names.
Sonic Reducer

American Music Club Love Songs for Patriots (Merge)
Being a self-professed alcoholic is a cliché lost on AMC's Mark Eitzel. There are gobs of songwriters regularly crediting their insights to booze and drugs, but few of them actually write from that place between reality and sad, slow death. Eitzel, unquestionably, is one of them. The pain, loss, heartbreak and sadly accurate worldview he crafts songs with can't be faked. As a result, AMC's first studio album in 10 years bristles with passionate suicidal tendencies and the kind of yearning that'll reduce you to tears—proof that giving up may well be the first step in starting over.

• Check out our photo gallery for more about Snoop Dogg's football team
POMONA, Calif. -- On a night in November, when you'd expect Snoop Dogg to be up to his ice in the details of the December release of his 10th studio album, Mr. D-O-double-G is not sitting in a green room surrounded by his crew, or swimming in VIP bottle service at the club. Not yet, anyway.
Right now -- like most every Thursday night for the past five years -- Snoop is standing in an open grass field beside a middle school in Los Angeles County. Under the glow of lights through the cold autumn air, he looks out on a group of 11- and 12-year-old boys assembled reverently before him, each on one knee. Tonight he is not puzzling over hit singles or presale promotions, but rather, the standout practice performance of his Pee Wee division Pomona Steelers.
"That's the intensity we've got to keep the whole season," says the iconic 38-year-old rapper with stirring coach's conviction. The battalion of boys obliges in sharp unison, "Sir yes sir!"
Snoop continues: "Everybody's light is on right now. Everybody! So get y'all some rest, go to school, don't do nothing stupid, no skateboard, no kickball. … I can't hear y'all coming back telling me, 'I hurt my knee at lunchtime playing tetherball with Denisha.'"
He delivers this commandment with deadpan sincerity for the young sponges to absorb and then adds, "Yeah, Denisha. You didn't know I knew her too, huh?" Beside him on each side, a line of stern-faced coaches breaks up in laughter. As soon as he knows his disciplined delivery has paid off, Snoop's eyes narrow and the trademark Snoop Dogg grin takes over his face as he falls back a step laughing and then launches into a full tetherball-on-the-playground performance.
This snapshot of Snoop's serious side that flanks his magnetic charm is exactly why so many people have loved Snoop Dogg so much for so long. Since our first collective introduction to Calvin Broadus in 1992 via Dr. Dre's epic album "The Chronic," to his breakout solo album "Doggystyle" that debuted at No. 1 in 1993, and straight through his subsequent hit parade, the Dogg Father has captured a far-reaching fan base, branched out beyond record labels, poured out of Cadillac stereos and thumped through suburban dorm rooms with ease. The persona of his art has the enduring power to balance a strange absurdity with a cute playfulness that keeps him above the fold.
No matter how far we've seen him push into eccentric margins, he always seems to bring it back with the ability to recalibrate his relativity by releasing another platinum album, baking a cake for his little girl on the family's reality show, renewing marriage vows with his high school sweetheart, or funding a youth football league in urban L.A. entirely out of his own pocket.
The charm never ceases to exude from Snoop's slim, familiar frame, and still no one ever questions his legendary cred. Maybe it's his easy smile or startlingly smart speech. Maybe it's his childlike excitability, unyielding work ethic, laid-back cool, or the sincere compassion for the kids he hopes to steer from street violence to shoulder pads. Whatever it is that keeps Snoop on top, it's been around forever, and somehow, it's still here making the ladies and fellas sing.
C'mon, hit it with me.
Snoop Doggy, Do-oww-ohhhh-ogg.

Watch Daniel Palmer's tribute to the late Michael Palmer
Recorded at ThrillerFest IX, July 2014
We're deeply saddened by the sudden loss of Michael Palmer, a very special person and a longtime friend to ITW. Michael was the quintessential gentleman, making everyone feel welcome. Brilliant, kind, and talented, he brought us all many tears of laughter with his phenomenal songs at the annual ThrillerFest banquet where he performed with his son Daniel and Brad Parks. Michael was one of our spotlight guests in 2013, and we will treasure all the memories and kindness he shared with everyone. Our hearts go out to his family and friends. Michael, you'll be dearly missed.

|"Goats: Infinite Typewriters" on sale now
Jonathan Rosenberg has been writing and drawing âGoatsâ since 1997, which in terms of the internet and webcomics qualifies as a very long time ago.
What the author describes as the story of ordinary people with horrifying pets in unusual situations and what happens when you find out your universe is artificial and you've only got a few years left before it crashes, âGoatsâ has never remained static. There is no status quo, and since the strip was rebooted itâs only become stranger and funnier. What used to be an outlandish and geeky tale of guys in New York City became an increasingly over-the-top science fiction tale. Rosenberg never lost his interest in skewering just about everyone and everything from William Shatner to Republicans to Democrats to religion, but now itâs part of something much larger and stranger and more ambitious.
âGoats: The Infinite Typewritersâ has just been released from Del Rey books, the first of three volumes scheduled to be released over the next year, and Rosenberg took some time out to talk to CBR News about the new collection.
CBR: Why is your strip called âGoats?â
JONATHAN ROSENBERG: âGoatsâ is an acronym which, when decrypted, spells out clues to how the strip will end in December of 2012. You'll need a cell phone and a good GPS loaded with maps for the US and Mexico.
Two of the main characters are Jon and Philip. How much of you is Jon?
Jon is a slice of me. Most of the characters are different two-dimensional slices of me. Jon is probably the closest but he's still fairly two-dimensional. I like to think that maybe he's the me that might have been had I never figured out that drawing comics is better than working. Or maybe he's the me from the next level of existence over.

At what point were you conscious of the strip really evolving and changing into something other than what you were originally doing?
In 2003 I had been doing the strip for about six years and I was already getting bored with it. The same boring beer gags, week after week. The same safe resets at the end of every storyline. I was daydreaming about the next project and spinning my wheels with Goats.
I came up with this idea for a story about interdimensional janitors, a team of characters that jumped from world to world-fixing physics problems, like âTime Banditsâ meets âDamage Control.â And then I realized that the idea mapped pretty well onto my existing characters, which made the whole process much easier. It's heartbreaking to ditch an existing reader base, you never know who's going to stick around for whatever's next.
The new âInfinite Typewritersâ book contains a two-year story arc I wrote to transition over to the new format. By the time it was done, everything about the strip had been burnt to the ground and rebuilt without any angry emails from readers, which is a fairly good way to numerically gauge the success of a given storyline. I think the slow approach helped acclimate folks to the new pace and rhythm of things.

Youâve been self-publishing books for a while now, what made you go with Random House?
Self-publishing is wonderful, and it's not a model I've written off by any means. But I like to tinker with the webcomic business model and when the opportunity to try something a little different presented itself I was excited to give it a go. The Random House folks have been nothing but superb and professional and wonderful to work with, they've done all the heavy lifting and printing and publicity and distribution to stores. I want to make comics as much of the time as I can so not having to deal with a lot of that is nice.
For people who have your other books, what does âInfinite Typewritersâ include that others didn't? What strips does it include and what new extras are in it?
I've drawn seven pages of introductory material designed to suck you in and catch you up as quickly as possible. That segues into a revamped and improved 16- or 17-page story called "Contains One Space Battle," which sets up a lot of the mythology of the cycle and gives you a good baseline for the main characters. The remainder of the book includes all the âGoatsâ strips from December 2003 through the end of 2005.

The collection comes with praise from Jerry Holkins, Scott McCloud, Charles Stross, Stewart OâNan and Lore Sjoberg. How did you get this incredibly talented but very eclectic group of people shilling for your book?
I have no idea! Life has been very strange and kind to me. Stewart was my creative writing teacher in college for two semesters. He taught me the importance of making every sentence count, and his appreciation of my unorthodox writing gave me a tremendous boost of self-esteem. Teachers are important! I doubt I would be working full-time creatively if it weren't for his shiny example.
The other guys I'm lucky enough to see at conventions every now and then, we all end up at the same sort of events looking for tolerable people to drink with. I'm fans of all their work and just happy that they were kind enough and/or susceptible to blackmail enough to put their names to these boldfaced lies on the back of the book.
How important do you think t-shirts and other merchandise have been as far as promoting âGoatsâ and gaining visibility and making a living as a webcartoonist?
For me, merch has been invaluable. Probably more than 90% of my income comes from sales of shirts, books, action figures, prints and that sort of thing. It helps that I enjoy the merch design as much as I enjoy doing the comic. I loved collecting toys and useless knickknacks as a kid so it's great to have the opportunity to make the stuff as an adult.
I don't know how much the merch has promoted the strip overall, but the âRepublicans for Voldemortâ stickers and t-shirts have received just as much press attention as the strip itself.

You donât seem to like a status quo. âGoatsâ is constantly moving and changing, both the storyline but also the look of the strip. Is that indicative of the kinds of stories you enjoy?
I get bored easily, so I try to build change into the fabric of the strip. It keeps things interesting, unpredictable. I end up with a lot of happy accidents that way, I stumble into something good and add it to my bag of tricks.
The last thing I want âGoatsâ to be is one of those stagnant newspaper strips being drawn by the third artist since the original creator's death, still using that same style guide from 1940, still telling sandwich jokes. So many artists are concerned about consistency! A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, y'know? And you can't grow as an artist if you're always churning out the same crap.
After all this time of writing a pretty continuity-heavy strip, how do you manage to tell stories without getting bogged down in it and alienating people who havenât read every previous strip?
That would be a good trick if I ever managed to figure it out. The best I can do is mitigate those problems, they're sort of inherent to the sort of story âGoatsâ is. I try to throw in subtle reminders of important earlier plot points right before they're likely to become important in the story again. I also supplement continuity-heavy storylines with news posts, pointing folks towards earlier relevant strips they might want to re-read. And I try to suggest good jumping-on points where people can pick up the story from a more recent date and not miss much without having read the previous strips.
The real answer is that people who are reading âGoatsâ for the first time should start out by buying the new Del Rey collections, since they're designed specifically to make the whole thing slightly more comprehensible for new folks, if perhaps not altogether clear.

Having said that, as you alluded to earlier, you once destroyed the Earth and rebooted the strip. Why was that a good idea and what do you think made the reboot work?
The strip had been rather silly before the reboot. I like silly, don't get me wrong, but I wanted to take a more serious approach to the silly. I wanted to take the meager amount I had learned from my early efforts and try to do things a better way with a clean slate. Things have been going pretty well since then so I must have done something right.
Do you have a bigger überplot in mind for the strip and how far ahead do you plan things out?
I have a loose sense of the major plot points I need to hit in each of the threads but I try and keep the planning of the fine details to a minimum. It keeps things fresh and topical and gives me the flexibility to play with last-minute ideas. It also keeps the writing interesting for me, since I'd get bored if I knew everything in advance.
Do you have an end in mind or are you just going to keep doing this until youâre tired of it?
The strip will run for certain until the end of 2012, when the current storyline will resolve in one of three or four different ways I'm toying with. What comes after that is hard to say; I have some ideas for a follow up but the 2012 version of me may have different plans.

The next two books Del Rey is putting out: âThe Corndog Imperativeâ and âShowcase Showdown.â When are they coming out and what extras are we going to see in those?
âCorndog Imperativeâ is hitting shelves on December 1, and âShowcase Showdownâ will be out sometime in the spring of 2010. They won't have bonus comics like the first volume but they will have goodies like character bios, new self-portraits, a bit of prose in the form of arguments for each book, and forewords from creative giants Charles Stross and Lore Sjoberg.
What kind of science fiction and fantasy you enjoy? You mentioned âTime Banditsâ and Douglas Adams. Anything else?
I'm pretty voracious when it comes to science fiction. I'm always reading something. These days I'm reading a lot of Rudy Rucker, Vernor Vinge, Charles Stross, Alastair Reynolds, Ken MacLeod, a bunch more that escape me. I've read all the Vonnegut and Asimov and Clarke and Stephenson and Gaiman that I'm supposed to, seen all the Star Whatevers and watched every episode of âFarscape,â even the puppet-centric ones. âFraggle Rock,â âDark Crystal,â all those puppets are wicked awesome.
Being at Del Rey alongside, well, it would take too long to mention all the greats they publish, but is it a thrill to be in such company, what with having parodied so many of them?
I'm thrilled but mostly stunned. My parents are thrilled. My in-laws are approaching thrilled but I think I still have some work to do there. When I went to Del Rey for my first meeting we sat in the Douglas Adams room, surrounded by âHitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxyâ and âDirk Gentlyâ book covers. Douglas Adams is probably my single biggest literary hero and influence. Sitting in that room was probably the single most surreal experience of my life, and I have seen Jonathan Frakes and Avery Brooks spontaneously belt out drunken showtunes and freeform jazz in a piano bar for two hours straight.

For people who pick up the âGoatsâ books and check out the website, what's going on in the strip now and what can we look forward to in the near future?
I just wrapped up a storyline where Our Heroes pull a fast one on an interdimensional weapons dealer selling illegal computational weaponry. Next week I think we're going to switch things up and revisit some characters we haven't seen in a while, many of whom are dead and spending eternity in a cocktail lounge in the interstice between levels of existence, and one of whom is an angry broccoli latte artist.

The chance encounters in elevators that result from a series of seemingly random occurrances, such as a nice citizen holding the door for you, dropping your keys, or stopping to tie your shoe. Often these encounters are with either the one person you don't want to be in an elevator with or the one person you do want to be in the elevator with. It is the fate of elevator that brings you together.

There is an exploit posted on MilW0rm entitled:
Wordpress <= 2.0.6 wp-trackback.php Zend_Hash_Del_Key_Or_Index /
/ sql injection admin hash disclosure exploit
Is this going to be fixed?
there are 2 quick fixes for this until its patched. unfortunately sharing them makes them public, which runs the risk of them not working, so im hesitant to share.
Ive attempted to exploit my own blog doing this, heres some tips, and my own results are below the tips:
1. the script depends on the other person knowing your db prefix (it defaults to wp_) So, using a another prefix, while not foolproof (there are ways to cause mysql errors that will reveal your db prefix,)x, is "better" than using the defualt one.
that prefix, btw, is set inside wp-config.php before you install.
2. That script relies on the name of your users table being being 'users', specifically the prefix used in #1 followed by users, ie, wp_users It follows, then, that using another table name (not users) is another way to 'hang up' attmepts
Again, its possible to cause mysql to spit out an error that would reveal that info, BUT its more work.
That table name mentioened in #2 is defined in wp-settings.php
3. That script depends on the name of your trackback file being wp-trackback.php
4. That script sends NO referer, and NO user-agent.
Fwiw, attmepting to exploit my own blog, editing out the default values and making sure they matched my own set up, resulted in a failed script (the script ran, no data was returned). I am not saying it doesnt work, just that I couldnt get it to (even knowing all of the pertinent information).
Ive made 3 changes to my own blog, and 1 small change to another file I use that prevents it from working completely on my own site. It wont even run :)
Of course, I've also *always* supressed ALL mysql errors. And this speaks to why sometimes thats a good idea, if you know what youre doing.
They're discussing this on one of the WordPress mailing lists. 2.0.6 appears not to be affected by this bug. I don't know if that's true or not...
well, it didnt work for me .. like I said :)
I see a post on the mailing list from someone saying that it still was broken. Not sure if that was you or not.
Got one post saying that 2.0.6 fixed the issue.
Aren't computers fun? ;)
This script should not work with 2.06, because it depends on register_globals being on (in order to set $tb_id), and with 2.06, wp-trackback require's wp-config which includes wp-settings which unsets all globals right at the beginning.
So I can't see it working on 2.06 at all. Not with that method.
Otto42, my limited understanding is that if the server has globals enabled (bad, bad), the unsetting can trigger the issue. This is only resolved in 2.0.7
Yeah, I found that out later. It won't happen with most setups, and the only way it would happen was with a bug in specific PHP implementations, appearantly.
Best to just make sure register_globals is off in the first place.

Part One: A Growing Movement Comes of Age

Read Whole Story
One of our lead political correspondents at Scoop44, Liz Cermak, wrote up a terrific review of the recent CNN/Facebook collaboration during President Obama's quasi-State of the Union.
Console yourself that you're amongst the millions of other parents who can't get their kids to eat vegetables. I haven't heard of one case of scurvy reported lately, have you?
When it comes to politics, today's college freshmen resemble their baby boomer parents of 40 years ago in all ways except two. One way makes perfect sense; the other is a puzzle.
We held up our purple tickets to prove that we all deserved a place on the other side of the gates, and watched with envy as anyone who made it through ran in with joy.
This is a call to you, Generation Obama. We must show the equal enthusiasm to our communities as we did in getting out the vote.
We'd like to state the case for the youth vote as being crucial in understanding the Obama victory and what it means for the future. The youth vote deserves a lot of respect in its shaping of the electoral map.
Part of what I always suspect comes out of articles like this, is the affirmation from some that a browner America should also mean minorities can finally stop complaining about inequalities.
The clean energy industry may lack the donations that flooded into the presidential campaign, but that doesn't mean we can't take advantage of the online social networking systems utilized.
It's true! Jindal is young, brown, and the child of immigrants. Since we, too, are young, brown, and the children of immigrants, I guess that means we're voting for Jindal in 2012!
While some celebrated that New Hampshire just became the first state to have a majority of women legislators in one of their chambers, the question to ask is, why are they the only ones?
While Obama has supported many LGBT rights in the past and favors secular civil unions as a solution to the inequality currently imposed, he has stopped short of calling for full marriage equality.
"May you live in interesting times" is supposed to be a curse, but I think it sounds sexy and dangerous. This year certainly has been both -- I'm thankful I've gotten a front row seat.
Dispelling the myth that young people never vote, Millennials cast ballots in larger numbers than young voters had in any recent presidential election.
Students may not have marched on the Pentagon to end the war in Iraq, but they have given the nation a new president who has pledged to do just that.
We must lay the foundation for the next generation of youth, so we can continue to capitalize on their energy, innovation, and creativity for the future.
The news came in that California passed Proposition 8. I am horrified at 52% of California's voters. How could you?
It's clear that the reason so many young people became involved with the Obama campaign was because he reached them based on an understanding about these new rules for communication.
We are issuing an urgent call for continued action by America's young voters to insure that Obama's leadership is forthrightly supported. The election is over, but the essential work of transformation has just begun.
You twenty-somethings who are reading this, if you can't take your day job after being part of such a political earthquake like last week's election, go find your local Member of Congress and apply for a job.
We are witnessing a tremendous ideological shift among young voters -- one that could reshape our politics for decades to come.
Prop. 8 passed, after Obama's speech. It was a bitter pill for progressives to swallow and a reminder that no matter who is president the public faces many significant issues on its own.
The newly politically engaged youth -- groomed in an election campaign but not fashioned as a standing political force -- will be at loss as to what they can do.
In our last post, we vented our frustration with the decision of voters in California, Florida, and Arizona to write anti-gay discrimination into thei...
Obama has allowed our beloved country to enter its next stage in history, a stage in which my generation can truly feel a part of this country and feel that our voices can and will be heard.

Leafs avoid arbitration again, sign Corrado to one year, $600K deal
Over the weekend, reports suggested that Toronto and RFA blueliner Frank Corrado were close to agreeing to a new contract.
On Monday, the two sides sealed the deal.
The Leafs announced they signed Corrado to a one-year contract, with Sportsnet reporting it to be a $600,00 pact, of the one-way variety.
Corrado, 23, was scheduled to go to arbitration tomorrow. His ask was $900,000, while the Leafs countered with a $625,000 figure on a two-way deal, and $575,000 on a one-way.
So Toronto was nearly spot-on with its valuation.
The former Canucks draftee took a while to make his Leafs debut last season — he sat 28 games after they claimed him off waivers — but when he did get into the lineup, he fared reasonably well. Corrado finished with a goal and six points in 39 games, averaging 14:27 TOI per game.
This marks the second player Toronto avoided going to arbitration with. Prior to signing Corrado, the Leafs inked center Peter Holland to a one-year, $1.3 million deal.
Flyers need Schenn to build on career year
The Philadelphia Flyers are hoping Brayden Schenn hasn't finished improving. The former fifth overall draft pick signed a four-year, $20.5 million contract today, after posting career highs in goals (26) and assists (33) in 2015-16.
It took a few years for Schenn, 24, to start justifying his draft position. John Tavares, Victor Hedman, Matt Duchene, and Evander Kane were selected with the first four picks that year. Oliver Ekman-Larsson was taken sixth overall.
So there was pressure.
"I think sometimes when you draft a player top five you tend to think he's going to develop a little quicker than other guys," Flyers GM Ron Hextall said Monday, per Flyzette. "When you look at Brayden, has he been a fast developer? I would say probably no. Has he been a slow developer? I would say probably no. He's probably been average.
"The good thing is he's gotten better every year and he's a hard worker. He's starting to figure out the intricacies of the game. He obviously had his best year to this point so hopefully he continues to build on that."
Hextall reportedly danced around a question about Schenn being part of the "core" group, so there's still some proving to be done. The Flyers have already committed long-term to forwards Claude Giroux, Jakub Voracek, and Sean Couturier. Wayne Simmonds and Michael Raffl have three years left on their deals, and Dale Weise signed a four-year agreement on July 1.
As for Schenn, he knows he needs to justify the Flyers' trust in his ongoing development.
"I feel like I keep getting better and better," he said. "I expect nothing else next year."
Report: If the Sabres can sign Vesey, they could be more willing to trade Kane
If the Buffalo Sabres can sign Jimmy Vesey, they may be more willing to trade winger Evander Kane.
That's what TSN 1040 (Vancouver) radio host Matt Sekeres has been hearing, and what he's hearing does make a lot of sense.
Kane, whose off-ice issues are once again making headlines, has two years left on his contract before he can become an unrestricted free agent. He plays the same position as Vesey, 23, who's currently Buffalo property but can sign with any team he chooses on Aug. 15.
Even if the Sabres can't convince Vesey to join them, Kane could still be traded. GM Tim Murray has already conceded that his patience is wearing thin with the 24-year-old that he acquired from Winnipeg not long ago. Alex Nylander, drafted eighth overall in June, plays the same position as Kane, and Murray has said it's possible the teenager could make the jump to the NHL next season.
Buffalo, Boston and Toronto have generally been considered the favorites to land Vesey. Chicago and Pittsburgh have also been mentioned.
Leafs avoid arbitration with Peter Holland
The Toronto Maple Leafs won't require arbitration with forward Peter Holland. They've signed the 25-year-old to a one-year deal worth a reported $1.3 million.
Holland had a hearing scheduled for today. Last week, the Leafs sent a message by putting him on waivers, which he cleared.
Holland had nine goals and 18 assists in 65 games last season. With him signed, the Leafs have only defensemen Frank Corrado and Martin Marincin as restricted free agents. Corrado has an arbitration hearing scheduled for tomorrow; Marincin's is next Tuesday.
