Microsoft Corp warned that cybercriminals have attacked users of its Office software for Windows PCs, exploiting a programing flaw that the software giant has yet to repair. The world's largest software maker issued the warning on Tuesday as it released patches to address nine other security holes in its software.
Cybercriminals target Microsoft programs because they are so widely used, allowing them to go after the largest number of potential victims with one set of code. (Windows runs more than 90 percent of the world's PCs. Office has some 500 million users).

The number of botnets and of computers controlled by them in China has fallen in recent years, though the country remains a top host for the networks of compromised computers, according to the government and independent researchers.
Over 1.2 million computers in China were newly infected with software that enabled their control by a botnet last year, about one-third the figure for the previous year, according to a report published late last month by China's National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team (CNCERT). That followed an equally steep fall from 2006, when the team estimated there were 10 million new infections in China.

Cyber criminals are aping executives when it comes to sales, marketing and risk management in the world of online treachery, according to a report released by networking giant Cisco.
"A lot of techniques they are using today are not new; it is really about how they may be doing some of the same old things," said Cisco chief security researcher Patrick Peterson.
Criminals have taken to sending blanket text messages to numbers based on area codes of local banks directing people to call into a service center to address supposed concerns about their accounts.

The police are to examine claims that a huge mobile phone hacking operation was launched by the News of the World, targeting thousands of people. The Guardian says the Sunday paper's reporters paid private investigators to hack into phones, many of them owned by politicians and celebrities. It is alleged details were suppressed by the police and the High Court.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown said: "This raises questions that are serious and will obviously have to be answered." Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Paul Stephenson has ordered a senior officer to "establish the facts".

The defendant in the case of a MySpace hoax that ended in a girl's suicide applauded a federal judge for tentatively dismissing her conviction that could have resulted in up to three years in prison.
Prosecutors had argued that Drew and an accomplice, who was granted immunity, pretended to be a teenage boy named Josh, and used that identity to at first flirt with 13-year-old Megan Meier, an emotionally troubled classmate of Drew's daughter, before turning on her.

South Korean police said they have arrested a hacker for staging cyber attacks similar to those that crippled domestic and US websites this week.
The 39-year-old identified only as Choi is accused of paralysing the homepage of the government Game Rating Board by using a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) method.
Choi was an agent for software developers seeking approval from the board for new games. Because he failed to finish one job on time, he crashed the site to create an excuse for his tardiness. Choi is accused of buying a hacking programme from an ethnic Korean in China.
Computer security experts were divided Thursday on whether North Korea was behind the ongoing attacks on US and South Korean websites, an assault that highlighted the vulnerabilities of the Web.
The so-called distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack used an army of malware-infected computers known as a "botnet" in a bid to paralyze US and South Korean websites by overwhelming them with traffic.
Around a dozen websites in the United States, including those of the White House, State Department and Pentagon, and another dozen in South Korea were among those targeted in the attack which began on Sunday.
New York's attorney general charged Thursday that Tagged.com stole the identities of more than 60 million Internet users worldwide by sending e-mails that raided their private accounts. Andrew Cuomo said he plans to sue the social networking Web site for deceptive marketing and invasion of privacy.
"This company stole the address books and identities of millions of people," Cuomo said in a statement. "Consumers had their privacy invaded and were forced into the embarrassing position of having to apologize to all their e-mail contacts for Tagged's unethical and illegal behavior."

A denial of service attack that took down some of South Korea's highest profile Web sites on Wednesday is set to resume Thursday evening, according to computer security specialist AhnLab. The attack will restart at 6pm local time (9am GMT) and be directed at a smaller number of sites that those hit a day earlier. They will include government Web sites and the home pages of the Chosun Ilbo newspaper and Kookmin Bank.
A denial of service attack involves sending a massive volume of traffic to a Web site so that it becomes overloaded. While some users will occasionally be able to access the site being attacked most will see nothing until a network time-out message appears.
A botnet comprised of about 50,000 infected computers has been waging a war against U.S. government Web sites and causing headaches for businesses in the U.S. and South Korea.
The attack started Saturday, and security experts have credited it with knocking the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's (FTC's) Web site offline for parts of Monday and Tuesday. Several other government Web sites have also been targeted, including the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
A Long Island, New York, social worker is facing two misdemeanor charges after allegedly posting a sexually suggestive ad on Craigslist that gave interested parties the home phone number of a 9-year-old girl.
Officials told CNN affiliate News 12 in Long Island that the Craigslist ad read "I need a little affection... I'm blond, I'm cute and I'll be waiting." Interested parties were directed to an e-mail address where they were given the girl's name and home phone number. Callers were unaware they were trying to reach a 9-year-old.

A series of cyber-attacks that targeted and paralyzed government networks and leading portal servers Tuesday and Wednesday are raising concerns that the world's self-proclaimed Internet powerhouse is prone to hacking and other cyber security threats.
The prosecution and police launched an investigation Wednesday to track the origin of hackers who hijacked a dozen local Internet sites, including those run by Cheong Wa Dae, the National Assembly, the Ministry of National Defense and top Web portal Naver, from Tuesday evening to Wednesday morning.

A U.S. district court has ordered key players in an international spam ring to give up $3.7 million that they made by sending out illegal e-mail messages pitching bogus hoodia weight-loss products and a human growth hormone pill they claimed reversed the aging process.
In a Federal Trade Commission law enforcement action, the court found that the five defendants, located in Canada and St. Kitts, violated the FTC Act and the CAN-SPAM Act by participating in the spam operation. The court order bars the defendants from violating the CAN-SPAM Act and from making false or unsubstantiated claims about the health benefits of any food, drug, or dietary supplement.

The Obama administration is moving cautiously on a new pilot program that would both detect and stop cyber attacks against government computers, while trying to ensure citizen privacy protections.
Any involvement of the NSA - the agency oversees electronic intelligence-gathering - in protecting domestic computer networks worries privacy and civil liberties groups who oppose giving such control to U.S. spy agencies.
One of Britain's biggest online paedophile inquiries is to be challenged in the court of appeal amid allegations from campaigners that hundreds of men have been wrongly convicted in a mass miscarriage of justice.
Senior officers in Ceop, the child exploitation and online protection unit, who co-ordinated the inquiry, have been anticipating the test case for some time. They are adamant that Ore was an extremely successful operation, which led to more than 2,600 British men who downloaded images of child abuse, or attempted to, being brought to justice. The vast majority of them pleaded guilty.

Lori Drew, 50, pretended to be a boy on the MySpace website to befriend Megan Meier, who hanged herself after the virtual friendship ended. Sentencing will take place this week in the first federal cyber bullying case in the US which was brought to trial after a teenage girl took her own life.
The US National Crime Prevention Council in a report last year found that 43% of teens are exposed to cyber bullying in one form or another yet only one in 10 kids told their parents. "Cyber bullying can have such a devastating effect on our young people from depression to falling grades and low self esteem. This case shows however that cyber bullying is not something that just young people commit but we as adults can also be at fault," said the council's Michelle Boykin.
The head of the U.S. Secret Service on Tuesday signed a memorandum of understanding with the head of the Italian police and the chief executive officer of the Italian Postal Service to set up an international task force to combat cyber crime.
"This is not a borderless crime and we believe there needs to be a reaction at an international level. We'll provide all our resources to make that happen," Mark Sullivan, the director of the U.S. Secret Service, said after signing the accord at a ceremony at the Italian interior ministry.

China has announced it would indefinitely postpone a mandate requiring all personal computers sold in the country to be accompanied by a controversial content-filtering application, state media reported.
A June 24 letter from the U.S. Department of Commerce to the Chinese government listed "numerous concerns raised by global technology companies, Chinese citizens, and the worldwide media about the stability of the software, the scope and extent of the filtering activities and its security weaknesses."
Despite such communication, there has been no indication so far from the Chinese government that the rule will be revoked, only delayed.
A blind Boston-area teenager was sentenced to more than 11 years in prison Friday for hacking into the telephone network and harassing the Verizon investigator who was building a case against him.
Matthew Weigman, 19, was part of a group of telephone hackers that met up on telephone party lines and was associated with more than 60 "swatting" calls to 911 numbers across the country. Weigman, known as "Little Hacker," became involved in telephone hacking around age 14 and continued to operate until last year.

Within hours of the death of pop star Michael Jackson, spam trading on his demise hit in-boxes, a security firm said as it warned that more junk mail was in the offing. Just eight hours after news broke about Jackson, Abingdon, England-based Sophos PLC started tracking the first wave of Jackson spam, which used a subject line of "Confidential -- Michael Jackson."
The spam wasn't pitching a product or leading users to a phishing or malware Web site. Instead it was trying to dupe users into replying to the message in order to collect e-mail addresses and verify them as legitimate.
Police in western Switzerland have broken a paedophile online network operating in nearly 80 different countries, the official Swissinfo.ch news website reported Sunday.
At least 32 people across Switzerland are now under investigation due to suspected connections with the case, the website quoted police in the canton of Vaud as saying.
A police official said cybercrime experts in Lausanne were alerted by Interpol more than a year ago that pornographic details were hidden on a website for hip-hop music run by a webmaster in western Switzerland.

Britain warned on Thursday of a growing risk to military and business secrets from computer spies and pledged to toughen cyber security to protect the 50 billion pounds ($82 billion) spent a year online in its economy.
Launching Britain's first national cyber security strategy, security minister Alan West said hostile states and criminals were increasingly attacking British interests online and al Qaeda and like-minded groups were seeking the ability to do so.
"We know that various state actors are very interested in cyber warfare," West, a junior minister at the Home Office (Interior Ministry), told reporters. "The terrorist aspect of this is the least (concern), but it is developing."
China on Thursday stepped up accusations that Google is spreading obscene content over the Internet, a day after U.S. officials urged Beijing to abandon plans for controversial filtering software on new computers.
The growing friction over control of online content threatens to become another irritant in ties at a time the world is looking for the United States and China to cooperate in helping to pull the global economy out of its slump.
China's Foreign Ministry on Thursday accused Google's English language search engine of spreading obscene images that violated the nation's laws, less than 24 hours after disruptions to the company's search engines and other services within China.
Recently scammers have become more aggressive on the site. They will set up new accounts and post spam messages on hot topics in hopes of gaining clicks when people search through Twitter.
And while hacked Twitter accounts are still rare, they're a much more effective way to reach victims, according to Rik Ferguson, a researcher with Trend Micro. "If you can take over an account that has a couple of thousand followers then you can get a much better return on your investment."
China will limit the number of messages that a mobile number can send per day to battle rampant spam messages clogging cell phones, state media said on Friday.
Spam messages, largely consisting of real estate offers, ads for English lessons, fake tax receipts and other frauds have grown very quickly in China in recent years. It is not unusual to receive dozens of messages a day, including the odd gun ad.
One mobile number cannot send more than 200 messages per hour or 1,000 per day on weekdays, according to the agreement. On holidays, 500 messages per hour and 2,000 per day may originate from one number.
The US military announced a new "cyber command" designed to wage digital warfare and to bolster defenses against mounting threats to its computer networks. The move reflects a shift in military strategy with "cyber dominance" now part of US war doctrine and comes amid growing alarm over the perceived threat posed by digital espionage coming from China, Russia and elsewhere.
President Barack Obama has put a top priority on cyber security and announced plans for a national cyber defense coordinator. A recent White House policy review said that "cybersecurity risks pose some of the most serious economic and national security challenges of the 21st century." Obama has promised privacy rights would be carefully safeguarded even as the government moves to step up efforts to protect sensitive civilian and military networks.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Athletic Department and Director of Athletics Kim Pate are pleased to announce the appointment of Britne Stubbs, Head Softball Coach, as the Senior Woman Administrator at Brevard College.
"I am excited that Coach Stubbs has accepted the designation of Senior Woman Administrator," said Pate, "she is a very dedicated and passionate young professional who I expect to make a lasting positive impact on Brevard College Athletics and in the lives of our student-athletes."
The Senior Woman Administrator (SWA) provides a female voice and perspective on key issues and serves as a role model for diversity, inclusion and gender equity in the athletic community. She also serves as an advocate on important issues concerning student-athletes, coaches and staff in the realms of gender equity, Title IX compliance and student-athlete welfare while participating in the decision-making process at the institutional, conference and national level.
In addition, Coach Stubbs has taken on the role of becoming the liaison with the Brevard College Student-Athlete Advisory Committee to work with the committee in developing and carrying out their goals and initiatives, including raising funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, as well as promoting community service projects and campus leadership initiatives.
Coach Stubbs will also take over the vacant position of Director of the Champs Life-Skills program and will help out in Operations and Game Day Administration.
"I am very excited about the position I have been given by the College and I am looking forward to helping our student-athletes develop and grow into upstanding individuals," Coach Stubbs had to say.
Coach Stubbs is in her third year as the Head Coach of the Tornados softball team and has seen the team make rapid improvements in her first two years, improving their win total in each of the past two seasons before culminating in the team's first appearance in the 2009 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference softball tournament held in Hickory, N.C. after a 17-27 campaign.
The team has also seen marked strides in maintaining academic excellence in the classroom jumping from 32nd in the nation in the 2007-2008 to 23rd in the nation in 2008-2009 with a team cumulative GPA of 3.338, ranking third in the Southeast Region and first in the South Atlantic Conference.
The softball team has also volunteered multiple times in the Brevard area, serving as volunteers at the Bread of Life and adopting a family for Christmas through the Sharing House Organization among their activities.
Stubbs had one final comment, "I am honored to be given this opportunity and I am eager to begin and take on a new challenge on the administrative side of athletics."

UPLAND - Two suspected metal thieves were hospitalized late Thursday after they tried to strip copper from charged electrical lines at an industrial building.
Rodney Juarez, 41, of Chino and Sean Ferguson, 41, of Pomona suffered burns on their hands after being shocked by the lines at the abandoned warehouse in the 1000 block of West Ninth Street, police said.
"There have been issues in that area before with people going in and trying to steal copper," Upland police Lt. John Moore said.
An officer who was patrolling the area at 10:20 p.m. saw two men running away from the property.
Police officers found the men hiding nearby, Moore said.
Firefighters gave Juarez and Ferguson medical treatment and took them to a hospital.
The men were later booked into West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on suspicion of burglary.
They are scheduled to appear in court on Monday, according to booking records.
Moore said he has encountered other metal thieves near where Juarez and Ferguson were shocked.
"They were lucky," Moore said.
The abandoned warehouse had previously manufactured parts for race cars.

This is true as we enter the Olympic break.
And it will be true until at least 9:30 p.m. on Feb. 26:
Your Montreal Canadiens are undefeated in the Dale Weise Era.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc (Google it) is a logical fallacy. But the facts are indisputable.
This is what has happened since Weise was obtained in the trade that sent Raphael Diaz to Vancouver:
• In his Canadiens debut on a line with Ryan White and Michäel Bournival, Weise played 12:45 and had three shots on goal and three hits in a 2-0 win against Calgary.
• In a 5-2 skunking of his old team, Weise assisted on White's first goal of the season.
• And in the last game before the break, With seven defencemen dressed and Max Pacioretty lost to injury after six shifts in the first period, Weise played 14:02 and had two hits, two takeways and two blocked shots while playing with a variety of linemates.
Will the Canadiens go 26-0 with Dale Weise in the lineup?
Of course not.
But let's celebrate the pro scouting department getting something right.
Nathan Beaulieu's impressive showing in his latest call-up rendered Diaz expendable. In return, Marc Bergevin got a young, physical winger who has good size and can skate.
Weise has combined with White (whom he knew from Manitoba minor hockey) and Bournival to form an unspectacular-but-solid fourth line. Michel Therrien can use them for double-digit minutes , which creates a ripple effect through the forward lines.
White is also deployed on the penalty-kill and defensive-zone faceoffs. He lost a D-zone draw in Carolina, but the second-period sequence ended up with White scoring the game-winning goal – the first time in his NHL career he has scored in consecutive games. He also assisted on Brian Gionta's empty-netter.
The absence of Bournival, who was concussed early in the Vancouver game Thursday night, and the injury to Pacioretty forced Therrien into some creative line-juggling. The coach got got good performances from the wingers who bounced around – particularly Rene Bourque, who has been playing some of his best hockey as a Canadiens since trade rumours about him circulated two weeks ago.
Bourque took Pacioretty's spot on a line with Brendan Gallagher and David Desharnais. He drew a nifty assist on the first of two goals DD scored against Carolina.
Desharnais had one point in the first 18 games he played this season. Since then – and after being a healthy scratch for a couple games – DD has 31 points in 38 games.
He has his detractors. Their critiques can be summarized as the the opinion that a small, undrafted centre cannot lead an NHL team to the promised land.
Perhaps not. That will be Alex Galchenyuk's job.
But with the promised land just faintly visible on the distant horizon, David Desharnais and Tomas Plekanec are the best centres on the team. And with White solifying his role on the fourth line, I'm starting to wonder whether Lars Eller will be part of the Canadiens future.
I like Eller. He has nice size and has learned how to to use it.
But this Dane is taking a long time to be anything near great. And you wonder about Eller's hockey IQ.
Desharnais and White scored scored within 1:25 late in a second period dominated by the Hurricanes. Carolina outshot the Canadiens 14-8; but after his turnover opened the door to Drayson Bowman's goal early in the period, Carey Price did what he does a lot lately: He stopped everything.
Price has allowed seven goals in his last six starts. He's stopped 167 of the 174 shots he's faced in that span, a save percentage of .960.
Sochi, here he comes … along with his friend P.K. Subban.
Price is a cinch to start at least some games for Canada.
Subban? We'll see.
P.K. has not been P.K. lately. The hot-doggery has become a bit cloying, and he's making mistakes on the back end.
The Canadiens will need Subban at his best when the NHL schedule resumes.
Detroit visits the Bell Centre Feb. 26, and the Canadiens – with eight players back from Olympic duty – visit Pittsburgh the following night.
Nine of 15 games in March are on the road – including a tough western trip to L.A., Anaheim, Phoenix and San Jose. The month also includes three back-to-backs.
But let's postpone the fretting for a couple weeks and enjoy what the Canadiens have accomplished. They've taken 11 of a possible 14 points since their season bottomed out in that gruesome 5-0 loss to Washington; and hands up everyone who thought this team would be in third-place in the Atlantic Division with 70 points at the Olympic break.
Go Canada Go!

Wash. Post publishes falsehood-laden Palin op-ed that is contradicted by scientists, temperature data, and ... the Post itself
The Washington Post has published an op-ed [1] by Sarah Palin in which she claims that the apparently stolen Climatic Research Unit emails "reveal that leading climate 'experts' ... manipulated data to 'hide the decline' in global temperatures." This is simply false. The emails do not discuss hiding a "decline" in "global temperatures." Indeed, the Post's own news reporting directly contradicts Palin's claim. The Post needs to run a correction and explain to its readers why it allowed this nonsense to be published in the first place.
Palin is referring to a 1999 email [2] in which CRU's Phil Jones wrote:
I've just completed Mike's Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) amd from 1961 for Keith's to hide the decline.
Palin claims that by "hide the decline," Jones is referring to some sort nefarious conspiracy to conceal an actual decrease in "global temperatures." But this is absurd on its face. Here's a chart [3] of average global temperatures published in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's 2001 report:
Beginning in the mid-1960s, there's a pretty clear long-term warming trend. In other words, there was no "decline" in "global temperatures" for Jones to hide.
So what was Jones talking about? The Washington Post has actually explained it on its news pages. In a December 5 Post article [4], David A. Fahrenthold and Juliet Eilperin reported that Jones "wrote a colleague that he would 'hide' a problem with data from Siberian tree rings with more accurate local air temperature measurements."
In other words, four days after two Washington Post science reporters explained that Jones was saying that he replaced problematic tree ring data with "more accurate" data from actual temperature measurements, the Post op-ed page allows Palin to claim that Jones was somehow concealing a decline in temperatures that never actually existed.
Media Matters has documented at length the distortions [5] of Jones' 1999 email. And in a December 8 London Times op-ed [6], Andrew Watson, research professor at the University of East Anglia, debunked the very claim that Palin is now making:
In the one most quoted, the director of the Climate Research Unit (CRU), Phil Jones, talks about using a "trick" to "hide the decline". At first reading, this easily translates as "deceiving [politicians, other scientists, everyone] into believing the world is warming when it is actually cooling".
But it doesn't mean that at all. Jones is talking about a line on a graph for the cover of a World Meteorological Organisation report, published in 2000, which shows the results of different attempts to reconstruct temperature over the past 1,000 years. The line represents one particular attempt, using tree-ring data for temperature. The method agrees with actual measurements before about 1960, but diverges from them after that - for reasons only partly understood, discussed in the literature.
The tree-ring measure declines, but the actual temperatures after 1960 go up. They draw the line to follow the tree-ring reconstruction up to 1960 and the measured temperature after that. The notes explain that the data are "reconstructions, along with historical and long instrumental records". Not very clear perhaps, but not much of a "trick".
The RealClimate blog, which, unlike Sarah Palin's op-ed, is written by actual climate scientists, provided [7] a similar explanation:
Phil Jones in discussing the presentation of temperature reconstructions stated that "I've just completed Mike's Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith's to hide the decline." The paper in question is the Mann, Bradley and Hughes (1998) Nature paper on the original multiproxy temperature reconstruction, and the 'trick' is just to plot the instrumental records along with reconstruction so that the context of the recent warming is clear. Scientists often use the term "trick" to refer to a "a good way to deal with a problem", rather than something that is "secret", and so there is nothing problematic in this at all. As for the 'decline', it is well known that Keith Briffa's maximum latewood tree ring density proxy diverges from the temperature records after 1960 (this is more commonly known as the "divergence problem"-see e.g. the recent discussion in this paper [8]) and has been discussed in the literature since Briffa et al in Nature in 1998 (Nature, 391, 678-682). Those authors have always recommend not using the post 1960 part of their reconstruction, and so while 'hiding' is probably a poor choice of words (since it is 'hidden' in plain sight), not using the data in the plot is completely appropriate, as is further research to understand why this happens.

|Benedict Arnold, Judas Iscariot, Lebron James, and now Jesse Crain.
Earlier in the day Crain saw fellow bullpen member Matt Guerrier start the mass exodus out of Minnesota. Guerrier signed a lucrative contract for a relief pitcher, a 3-year $12 million contract, with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
In an offseason where a lot of money is being tossed around both of these pitchers received top-of-the-line contracts for their role in relief innings. Giving three year contracts to relief pitchers is something that some teams shy away from but this tandem was able to accomplish that on the free agent market. Craig Calcaterra looks at the scary side of giving relief pitchers three-year contracts.
As a fan I hoped to see either one of these pitchers back with the Twins next season. A veteran presence in the bullpen is something that the Twins will be searching for in the coming months. Fans have gotten comfortable with the likes of Crain and Guerrier in the late innings of games. There will be new faces out there to record those outs and that is something that fans will need to get acclimated to next season.
In the time that Crain spent with the Twins there was always talk that he would be the closer of the future. That time never came for Crain in Minnesota. He might get this opportunity with the White Sox next season.
I can only imagine the amount of boos that will come his way as he runs on the field for the first time at Target Field. It will no doubt rival many of the boo-lashings that have been handed to AJ Pierzynksi in his time with the White Sox. Having those two players as a possible battery combination at Target Field in the late innings of a pennant race will make many fans throat's sore.
As a free agent player Crain did what he had to do. I'm sure his off season checklist included the following items:
1. The chance to be a closer
2. Play for a team that could contend
3. A contract that was similar to or better than the other free agent relief pitchers.
Crain did what he had to but I will still be one of those fans booing until my throat is hoarse when the White Sox come to town.
I dislike your "Decision" Mr. Crain.

GSA Recommits To Relationship with Native American Business Community
September 18, 2006
Contact: Jon Anderson (202) 501-1231
Washington D.C. – Administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration, Lurita Doan, told a group of Native American business leaders that GSA is recommitting to ensure their business community has the opportunity to become active partners with GSA in providing materials and services to the Federal government.
"You bet GSA is reaching out to the Native American business community," Administrator Doan told the business owners. "We want to ensure that you know what's necessary to succeed in the Federal procurement process. We will take the necessary steps to make certain you all have every opportunity to participate in the Federal contracting arena."
Administrator Doan met with the business leaders at the GSA/Native American Business Community Forum last week, which included representatives from the U.S. Department of Commerce's Minority Business Development Agency and the U.S. Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs to outline plans for increasing this community's participation in federal contracting opportunities. These plans include
• Increasing Federal support to the GSA Native American Business Center
• Increasing GSA's already extensive national and regional outreach to Native American businesses and tribes
by leveraging GSA's strong, existing relationships with national Native American organizations
• Establishing a Native American-GSA business development task force
GSA has a strong history of supporting Native American small business owners at both its national headquarters and 11 GSA regional offices throughout the United States. GSA offers small business development workshops for Native American small business owners, maintains close ties to the National Congress of American Indians and is also a partner in the National Reservation Economic Summit and American Indian Business Trade Fair .
GSA is a centralized, federal procurement, property management, policy development and information provision agency, created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. In this role, GSA acquires products and services on behalf of federal agencies; plays a key role in developing and implementing government-wide policies; provides services and solutions for the office operations of more than one million federal workers; and encourages a citizen-centric relationship with government by providing a single "point of entry" to the information and services citizens need in a timeframe they can appreciate. This allows citizens to receive accurate, timely and consistent answers and information, and helps federal agencies better respond to citizen inquiries.

Whitson breaks all-time scoring record as Tornados trample North Greenville, 78-62February 11, 2009
Junior forward's basket at 3:00 mark of first half sets new BC scoring mark
Brevard, N.C. – Jonathan Whitson broke Brevard College's all-time scoring record with a basket at the 3:00 mark of the first half en route to a career-high 33 points as the Tornados trampled North Greenville, 78-62, Wednesday night at Boshamer Gymnasium. The win snaps Brevard's four-game losing skid.
Whitson (Clyde, N.C.) took a feed from Sam Carlisle (Raleigh, N.C.) 17 minutes into the opening half and put home his fifth field goal of the night to move to 1,357 career points, eclipsing Tyjuan Campbell's career mark of 1,356 points and becoming the most prolific scorer in Brevard College history. The junior forward went on to finish with 33 points on the night, the highest single-game mark in his illustrious career.
Cody Siniard (Brevard, N.C.) scored 11 points of his own, while Darin Dellinger (Stanley, N.C.) dished out a career-high ten assists. The Tornados (11-11, 2-9 South Atlantic Conference) shot 50.9% from the floor and outrebounded the Crusaders (8-15), 37-33.
North Greenville was led by Kyler Vitko (Alpharetta, Ga.), who scored 16 points. Paul Harrison (Alpharetta, Ga.) scored 11 for North Greenville, which shot just 38.2%.
Dellinger got Brevard off on the right foot with a jumper on the squad's first possession of the game, and the Tornados never trailed thanks to a suffocating defensive effort.
After the first 13 minutes of the game were played evenly, the Tornados took control of the battle with an 8-0 spurt, culminating with Whitson's record-setting basket, to take a 30-19 lead. The Tornados closed the first period with the final five points, on a three-pointer from Radosav Babic (Podgorica, Montenegro) and a lay-in by Whitson at the buzzer, to lead at the half, 35-20.
Brevard maintained a double-digit lead for the duration of the game. North Greenville looked poised to make a charge, cutting the score to 55-43 with 10:05 left to play on a pair of free throws from Vitko, but they could get no closer. Brevard's largest lead came with 2:53 to play, when a couple of Siniard freebies made the score 76-56.
The win completes a season sweep for the Tornados over North Greenville. Brevard dominated NGU on January 24 in Tigerville, S.C., 66-44.
After the game, Brevard coach Michael Jones praised his record-breaking star. "Jonathan worked very hard to earn this honor and he was very focused tonight. He has been pressing over the last couple of games as he saw the record in sight, but tonight he came out ready to get the job done and I'm very proud of him."
"As a team I thought we did a good job establishing our offense after we had struggled for the last two weeks," Jones added. "We had two good days of practice leading up to this game and we came out ready to play. Hopefully that carries over to Saturday's game."
Brevard looks for their first conference win in four weeks on Saturday when they play at Wingate. The Tornados beat the Bulldogs, 59-56, January 17 at Boshamer. Round two starts at 4 p.m. North Greenville hosts Knoxville Saturday at 4 p.m.

@ian - me and my boy parked at a parking garage and rode our bikes to the tracks like always, everything is chill, got to drink a couple 40's and chill waiting for trains to come and go, hit about 12 cars in a 6 hour period, we only hit one car per line, trying to keep it low key since the spot is so dope. well when we get back, we are walking up the stairwell with me ahead of him, and he stops for 2 seconds and catches a hand on a door. camera catches our faces/my tag number. i got home from work sunday and my girl told me a sheriff stopped by with a warrant, and said i wouldnt be up for bond until i saw a judge, which made me uneasy, because thats some weird shit for whats normally a misdemeanor citation (criminal trespass). so i turn myself in since i mostly do computer work, and that shit is on my schedule. turns out the bitch wanted to see me because she wanted to legally bar me from the entire downtown area, and if im caught inside the four roads she used to push me out of the city, i go to jail for aggressive stalking. but its straight, they dont have me on camera painting shit, they just have my boy, ill get a public defender and get the shit dropped more than likely. still some bullshit, my pod was on lockdown all day both monday and yesterday because a dude talked shit and got hit, twice. so i got to chill in my bunk for 48 hours minus the time i was in court. its nice though, going two days without smoking bud, smoked a blunt when i got home today and i was on cloud nine for a minute.

word thats lame they are tryin to bar you out of the city..but like you said they dont have you in the act so that shit should get dropped
yeah, its some straight bull shit, i let the judge know that too. my first offense (that wasnt ex sponged) so its the only thing on my record, and they are trying to keep me out of the city i grew up in because of it. i dont even get up in the city anymore because fools have blown it the fuck up, so its not like taking me off the streets is going to solve their graffiti problems. which they will realize after the weekend, for some reason it seems like 75% of the heads that get up do it on the weekend. i just dont want a criminal trespass on my record in case i ever do get popped in the act of painting. this city is fucking dead though, ive been wanting to move for a while.
thats fucked up dude, i dont even see how they can charge you with that if they didnt even catch you doin anything, for all they know you don't even do graff and your friend just caught a handie. Fucked up
lol yeah ive got big body dimensions but i wouldnt consider myself really all THAT fat yknow? im wearing 2 more shirts and an under garment top beneath that sweatshirt there so i look even bigger than the bear figure that ive already got hahaha

Ask A Stylist: How Do I Make My Fall Look Edgier?
Ami was satisfied with the spring looks I helped her put together, so she asked me back into her closet for fall. Sadly, she'll have to put her hot denim, bell bottom romper away for the time being and bust out her booties because halter top weather is officially over.
The focus of our session for fall was how to work the few new pieces she purchased into her existing wardrobe in a way that was edgy and unique, but still wearable. Last season she livened things up, now she wants to push the fashion envelope a bit farther … but without venturing into Lady Gaga territory. I advised her to pick out a few statement pieces and buy at least one piece that she loved, but didn't think she could wear. Keeping all this in mind, click through to check out the outfits I came up with.

Jon Bon Jovi calls 911 after wife's kitchen accident

Céline Fall 2013
"I really went on instinct and desire," said Phoebe Philo after her supremely elegant Céline show, "if I can create any kind of desire, that's great."
In what was certainly one of the most desirable collections of the season, Philo moved away from the now-iconic linear Céline aesthetic (which continues to influence countless less imaginative international runways) and into clothing with a gentle swing of movement or great, rounded volume.
The show opened with a series of "fit-and-flare" dresses in ivory or blush pink double-face wool and cashmeres that made that seventies working-woman silhouette something essentially contemporary, luxurious—and suddenly covetable, a testament to Philo's design authority at the house. The edge was amped up with the thick-heeled, above-the-ankle boots these dresses were shown with. (The two lean-leg pants in the dress-dominated show were cut to just clear the tops of these boots.) This was one of the two footwear styles that were used throughout the show—the other a boot so high and tightly fitted to the leg that it might have been hosiery. The opening look was shown with a shrug in the same fabric cradling the shoulders—a hint of the cozy embrace of those all-enveloping coats to come, an effect that was literally explored in the dress and coats cut with panels that resembled additional sleeves, looped over one another as you would tie a cardigan shrugged over the shoulders.
In a season of great coats, Philo's were superb. Crafted in teddy bear alpacas, thickly woven double-face meltons, or wool tufted like the surfaces of a Piero Manzoni canvas, they had the flavor of fifties couture in the clavicle-framing stand-away collars and a voluminous swing movement in back. A brace of sleeveless tabard coatdresses were another chic option.
After the subdued wash of dawn colors that opened the show—soft grays, pinks, and ivories—Philo added a dash of moody peridot green, inky blue, and earth brown inspired by the palette of the Flemish fourteenth-century painters. The only prints were essentially wovens—mimicking the plaids of those mundane hardware-store nylon hold-all bags, reinterpreted in precious woven silk gauzes.
The jewelry was equally minimal; necks and wrists were lassoed with a thread of gold, embellished with just a dark wooden bead, smooth as a beach pebble. And the softly crushable purses were the acme of understatement. Stripped of all hardware they became an extension of the clothing (and were often shown in the same fabric or color, camouflaged against the body), perhaps twisted into a trapezoid shape, or slashed so that the hand could be slotted through to clutch it tight: Pitch-perfect, like the clothes they were shown with, and the very essence of desire.

What's Trending: February 27th
Imagine getting paid to go to the gym? You would never miss it! The PACT app does exactly that. It sounds too good to be true but it's real! Our listener, Jillian bought herself a new shirt with the money she made from working out and already has $9 in her account again! You set up your PACT weekly with how many times you plan on working out, how many veggies you'll eat, and logging your meals. The PACT app knows you've worked out by using your phone's GPS to check if you are at the gym. You must be at that location for at least 30 minutes. Set your stakes, decide on the amount you want to be charged if you don't do what you've made a PACT to do and you will be charged! It's set up through PayPal so it's really easy! If you have FitBit and MyFitnessPal you can use that to track within the app as well! iPhone and Android.
One of the best beauty products my grandma taught me about was NailTek, she used to have me buy it for her when I worked at the drug store. So when Bethany came to me and asked me what to use on her weak nails I told her "NailTek!" In just two weeks Bethany's nails have done a total transformation, they were practically ruined from putting on fake nails and now they are perfect!! It's crazy how great this stuff works. Read their nail guide to see which product is best for your nail situation. Bethany has been using the formula for brittle nails.

Tracy Werner is, in many ways, K.I.'s living Care Package, devoted to assisting others.
Mitzvah Hero: Tracy Werner, 46, has a caring heart, manifested in her involvement in Caring Community, a project created at Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel in Elkins Park, where she is a member.
What It's All About: K.I.'s Cantor Amy Levy "approached me about establishing Caring Community about three years ago," with the program's focus on "people helping people. Our message is to support our congregants' physical, emotional and spiritual needs in a way that is caring, comfortable and confidential. We seek to match needs with those that can help." The program includes supportive phone calls to bereaved and ill congregants; providing rides to services, synagogue activities and doctors' appointments; connecting with families looking for a 'Bubbe' or 'Zayde' for intergenerational experiences; and providing financial resources," among other services.
Not a One-Time Thing: Keeping track of Tracy translates into a fulltime job: The Elkins Park resident volunteers for the Jewish Family and Children's Service; is a board member and diving representative at Springfield Aquatic Club, where her son is a junior Olympic diver; a board member/tournament director, Friends of Cheltenham Community Tennis, where her daughter plays the game; board member of the College Settlement Camp in Horsham; and a former board member of K.I., as well as a member of its Sacred Music Committee and King David Harp Society, among other commitments.
Good for Her: It's all about reconnecting: "I became more disconnected from Judaism through my college years and early in my interfaith marriage." (She and husband, Richard, have been wed for 21 years.) "I suspect I am not alone when I share that having children" — daughter Emma is 16; son Matthew, 14 — "brought the subject of my Jewish identity to the forefront. K.I. has been wonderfully inclusive for my family; this feeling of acceptance has been amplified and expanded through my work with the Caring Community." A role model on a roll? "I am 'modeling mitzvot' on a daily basis, showing my family and community that the mitzvah experience is an unparalleled way to connect with and perpetuate Judaism."

Allow me to reply:
You have been a valuable member to the community and your teams posts and tools are helpful to many however what balding parrot is trying to say is true. I would be willing to bet ( and feel free to test this) That if you go to another security distros form and try to advertise your distro it will probably not go so well. If I were you, instead of making my own distro I would have submitted my tools for consideration with bt4 (which you can still do if you want to contact me via PM). What you're doing is saying backtrack is not good enough so I built my own. I just went through this with another member who wanted to build a Backtrack "ubuntu" version. Its just considered bad form or etiquette to advertise your security distro on this site. I hope you will not leave our community due to this trivial matter.
Also just to reply to the apple/microsoft analogy, it is sort of the same because the offensive-security courses are a business that some people who run it make their living from. When people become interested in backtrack we direct them to the offsec courses to learn how to use this powerful tool so in some way, yes you are competition.

Blackbird Mine is an inactive mine located 25 miles west of the town of Salmon in east central Idaho (Lemhi County). Cobalt, silver and copper ore were extracted from underground and open pit mining operations. Contaminated soil, sediments and tailings were released from the Blackbird Mine site during high water flows from thunderstorms and snowmelt. The main environmental concerns at the mine are cobalt, copper and arsenic released into Blackbird Creek, the South Fork of the Big Deer Creek, Big Deer Creek, and Panther Creek. Since 1995, cleanup actions have collected contaminated runoff water in the mine area and treated it for copper and cobalt. These cleanup actions have also stabilized waste-rock piles at the mine. Post-construction monitoring of these cleanup activities is ongoing.

How to keep a little girl from getting upset easily?
I noticed that my three-year-old daughter can be easily upset even by the simplest of things; a marble lost under a table or a box that's not easy to open can send her into a panic and have her cry to you for help. How can I teach her to calm down and tackle these "problems" without panicking?

Little girls can be very sensitive, however that is because their nervous system is still developing. I highly suggest that her caregivers get down on her eye level and talk to her. Tell her that you want to help her find her marble and that you will work with her till its found, give her a hug and reassure her that you will be their to help her through this difficult time.
A 3 year old does not have the vocabulary to fully express her feelings, so thus the crying or screaming or the worlds coming to an end behavior. Which is all very very normal for a 3 year old child.
Know that this time will pass and she will slowly evolve into a blossoming child.
Her ability to trust you is completely up to you...show her that you care and respect her feelings.

If any of you remember Twenty Four in yaletown, people tend to think that it is richard kidd now, but according to supreme it's still around. Haven't been to the new location, if it is one, but if anybody checks this out let me know what they still sell, if anything. I may be confused but 2nd avenue isn't near yaletown so they possibly took a break and re-opened?

How to plan your kitchen
Starting a new project can be daunting, but we're here to give you the confidence that planning a kitchen doesn't take as long or cost as much as you might think.
So, whether you've outgrown your current space or the layout just doesn't work for you, updating your kitchen could make life that little bit easier.
You're at the beginning of your journey, so it's a good idea to take a look around for ideas on what you might like.
Let's get planning…
Buying guides
Buyer's guide to kitchen taps
Whether you're renovating your kitchen or utility room completely, or are just updating what you have already, the right kitchen tap can be the perfect finishing touch – not just by looking great, but in making life in your kitchen easier.
There are so many clever new features with kitchen taps – all designed to help busy households save time on everyday tasks. From flexible necks that shoot jets into difficult to reach crannies to swivel spouts that can be turned out of the way for easier kitchen sink access. From those that offer immediate piping hot drinking water for tea and coffee to those with filters that remove all impurities from the water creating a better-tasting drink. The humble kitchen tap has enjoyed an exciting evolution which has seen it emerge as one of the most innovative and stylish features in this busy heart of your home.
So whether you want something traditional and classic, or a tap that's more modern and on-trend, our wide range of taps offer a variety of shapes, styles and even colours to make the ideal addition to your kitchen.
Let's get started.
Before you begin
To get the best performance from a new tap, you'll want to choose one which suits the water pressure in your home.

Using their original Phild Process technology, Titanium is dissolved into water and permanently embedded into the material. The Titanium Bracelet X30 Edge incorporates 30 times the concentration of regular Aqua-Titanium. The flexible core retains its Micro-Titanium Sphere and elastomer compound while providing the athletes with a relaxed fit to help stabilize your energy flow through your hand, wrist and arm. The Titanium Bracelet X30 Edge is reversible. Traditionally, titanium is a lightweight and insoluble metal used in medical devices due to its non-corrosive and hypoallergenic properties. These properties make titanium an ideal medium for Phiten's technology. However, titanium in its solid state is not suitable for high-intensity, exercise-specific applications, which led Phiten to develop Aqua-Titanium. In this application, minute particles of titanium suspended in water act as carriers for Phiten's technology. Aqua-Titanium is then utilized as a dye and embedded into fabric, spreading the effect of Phiten technology to the users. Aqua-Titanium is widely incorporated in their fabric necklaces and apparel, permeating each strand of fiber and becoming a permanent component of the finished product. Aqua-Titanium X30 is 30 times more concentrated than standard Aqua-Titanium. The higher concentration of Aqua-Titanium amplifies Phiten technology to meet the grueling demands of today's high performance athlete. "X30" indicates the increased concentration of Phiten's Aqua-Titanium solution, and does not necessarily mean that the effect of product itself is 30 times stronger. All their products reflect Phiten's uncompromising search for health. Their aim is to provide health-promoting technologies and products. They will never offer an item that might have an ill effect on your health, no matter how convenient and useful it may be. That's their philosophy. After examining the meaning of health in this day and age, they directed their attention to the body's natural healing power. Part of the body's natural responses, it is often weakened by the fatigue and stress accumulated with the hectic pace of modern life. Your body's energy system influences all of your body's responses. Phiten products regulate and balance that flow of energy throughout your body. Proper energy balance helps to alleviate discomfort, speed recovery, and counteract fatigue by restoring the body's natural healing powers.

Key ingredients: First Lady, students .... appetites!
Take a public health expert, an author of a popular Mediterranean cookbook and a passion for spreading a healthy message, and it's a recipe for success in the classroom and the kitchen.
First Lady Michelle Obama has her "Get Moving" campaign to fight obesity, and University of South Carolina First Lady Patricia Moore-Pastides is stirring up a message of healthy cooking and eating in her Mediterranean cooking class for USC undergraduates.
Using her very own cookbook, "Greek Revival: Cooking for Life," Moore-Pastides is showing a class of students in USC's School of Hotel, Retail and Tourism Management how to prepare mouth-watering recipes that are also nutritutious.
"I teach and write about the traditional Greek diet because for decades it's been proven to protect against chronic diseases and increase quality longevity -- and the foods are delicious," she said. "If I've learned one thing through my career in public health, it is that by making positive lifestyle choices, we can decrease our risks for chronic diseases such as hypertension, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, dementia, diabetes and certain cancers."
HRTM student Tarah Cotton, who had never eaten Greek food until she enrolled in the class, said it has opened up her cooking world.
"I'm from south Mississippi, so we cook with butter, pork and fat, and in here we cook with olive oil and vegetables," she said. "It's really different, and she makes it fun to learn how to make foods healthy."
Cotton and her classmates aren't intimidated by the fact that their instructor is also USC's first lady. The class atmosphere is casual, with student partners talking and laughing while keeping an eye on the timer and the time while chopping and dicing classic Greek seasonings such as garlic, rosemary and onion in McCutchen House's newly renovated kitchen.

A new feature in Google Earth is Historical Imagery. Click the clock icon on the Tool Bar and a slider bar will appear at the top of the map indicating how far back map images are available for your location. In the case of San Francisco we can turn the hands of time back to 1946 image. To return to modern day just unclick the clock icon or move the slider back up to the current year.
Go to Image Search and look for a portrait of a historical figure such as George Washington. In the results pages you'll see many faces of George Washington. However, as you move on through the search results, soon you'll come across other things, like a photograph of George Washington's false teeth. Not exactly what you were looking for.To eliminate the unwanted images and narrow in on the desired images, go back to the search box and click the Advance Image Search link. You'll see a blue box near the top and then a white box below. Within that box the first option is Content Types: return images that contain. Click on Faces and click the Search button again. Now every search result is a facial image. It might be a portrait on a stamp or on a coin, but it will be a face. We have succeeded in narrowing the original search results down from 6.7 million images to 548,000 images. Think how well this might work with an ancestor who is not quite is famous as George Washington!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Danielleml from The perfect bag So I have now had this purse for about two years, and it still looks just as good as the day that I bought it. It is an extremely well made bag, so versatile, and timeless. Also, it is an AWESOME size. I use this purse to bring to work, and it fits everything I need in it without becoming too bulky. Definitely a must have!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Elle from Perfect Tote! After reading the other reviews, I was apprehensive about this purchase. I decided to go forward anyway, and I'm thrilled I did! I've had my tote for about 3 months and wanted to see how it held up before reviewing. I purchased the english saddle because I love the look of worn it leather with all those natural markings! I'm farrrrrrr from gentle with this tote- leave it on the floor of trains and restaurants, carry way too many books and gadgets in it, spilled my water bottle a few times and even through all of that this tote looks in perfect condition (other than the bottom haha!) I haven't had issues with the handles or torn edges, BUT I would highly suggest purchasing a leather treatment kit - helps with those uhoh moments like the spilling of the water! I love it, and just purchased another for my friend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Erika from In Love! I've been eyeballing this bag for a while and my husband knew about it so he snatched one up for my birthday present. I read some iffy reviews here about quality but I thought this bag was perfect! It's lightweight, comfortable, and a great size to boot and you can't beat that new fresh leather smell. Only thing I wish were different is that it was made in the U.S. But I'm sure that would jack the price up a bit! Truly satisfied and will be my new everyday bag!

Rated 5 out of 5 by AmyS from That Leather Smell Upon opening the Madewell packaging the most wonderful smell of leather made me think of old well-worn saddles. Soft and supple, this tote will be a favorite bag of mine for years to come! I have had people stop me and ask me where I got my bag-the ultimate compliment! Thanks Madewell!

Rated 5 out of 5 by LaurenBF from Beautiful Work Bag I'd been pining after this back for a long time now. A friend had one in the brown color that I'd been eyeing for a while. I started a new job at the start of the year, and decided I'd break down and treat myself to a new bag for work. The bag is durable, spacious (fits my 14 inch laptop, folders, notebook, pens, etc) very comfortably. I decided to get the black bag with brown straps. Figured that way it'd literally go with any outfit. In addition to being practical, it is also so pretty, really soft leather, stylish shape. Would definitely recommend this bag to anyone!

Rated 5 out of 5 by jasltr from I LOVE MY BAG! I got this is the english saddle and I LOVE IT! I also had it monogrammed to add that extra personalised touch. There were some marks on the inside of the bag as it came that way. But i don't care cos the bag is absolutely stunning. And I feel that everyone needs one of this. I would prefer if the bag came with a dustbag though. Plus, dustbags are cheap but it elevates the perceived value of your bag.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Whitney1979 from Understated, Elegant, Versatile I received this bag for Christmas last year and I love it. At first the handles rubbed my shoulders uncomfortably, but they quickly softened and now they don't bother me at all. The colours of the bag (black with tan handles) make it go with just about everything, and the size of the bag makes it perfect for traveling and for everyday. When I was in college I spent a summer in Italy, and they taught me how to recognise quality leather. The leather used on this tote is very high quality, the kind you'd expect to find at a much higher price point. My only wish is that it had another small pocket inside for my phone, but I know the single pocket is standard for this style of bag. Overall, one of the best gifts I've ever received and I expect it to last a lifetime.

Rated 5 out of 5 by rachelm13 from Just as expected! I purchased this tote with the gold monogramming and just love it! I also bought the Leather Tassel Rope Keychain to add to the strap of the bag because I saw it in store and it looked so cute. I was a little nervous about it being open topped without a zipper for when I'm traveling but I've since taken it with me to the airport and it was a great carryon. It fit right under the seat of the plane and holds my laptop like a champ.

Rated 5 out of 5 by RachelMSP from Best bag ever This transport tote is probably one of the best purchases I have ever made. I was looking for a larger bag and came across many but none that seemed to work as well as this one. It's sytlish, looks good on and is reasonable (compared to other designer bags). I bought one for myself a few months ago and just purchased another one for my daughter. I love everything about this bag. The only thing I wish it had was another pocket inside.

A federal court in Mississippi on Feb. 2 dismissed a 10-year-old lawsuit accusing the Vatican of complicity in a scheme to bilk insurance companies for more than $200 million. The state insurance commissioners of Mississippi, Tennessee, Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas had filed the lawsuit in 2002, charging the Vatican and Msgr. Emilio Colagiovanni of racketeering and fraud. The commissioners claimed that Monsignor Colagiovanni and the Holy See had aided financier Martin Frankel in purchasing small, ailing insurance companies, whose assets he then siphoned off, leaving them unable to pay claims. Jeffrey S. Lena, an attorney for the Holy See, said the dismissal "was not the result of any settlement agreement" and that the insurance commissioners had requested the court's action "of their own accord."

Camino's thoughts on Indians wild-card showdown with Rays
WTAM 1100 Cleveland Indians beat reporter Nick Camino breaks down five things he'll have on his mind when the Tribe battles the Tampa Bay Rays at Progressive Field in their one-game playoff Wednesday night at 8:07 pm ET.
The optional and official team workouts are complete. Speeches by both respective managers have been given to their clubs. It's time to finally play some baseball. For Cleveland, the most meaningful game this late in a season since 2007 when they came within one game of the World Series.
When the Indians and Rays clash in Wednesday's one-game playoff at a sold out Progressive Field to see who travels to Fenway Park to battle the Boston Red Sox in the ALDS, there are five things I'll definitely be pondering…well, maybe more than just five; but here are some important thoughts…
1. Familiar foes: Watching how Terry Francona and Joe Maddon manage this one-game affair of win-or-go-home will be interesting. Both of their clubs will have well rested bullpens and players off the bench, so there could be a ton of mixing and matching throughout the evening. Francona and Maddon have mutual respect for each other having faced off plenty of times while Tito was in Boston not only in the regular season, but also the Playoffs. During Tuesday's press conferences both were complimentary of each other, which is not surprising, but very telling of just how good these guys are in their craft. I don't think Maddon would have spoken as highly of say, Ned Yost. Francona and Maddon have proven year after year that they are two of the better managers in all of Major League Baseball and their track records prove it.
2. Pitching and defense: The Rays and Indians are actually mirror images of each other. Both teams have received strong contributions from their starting staffs and bullpens (Tampa Bay's 'pen is better), while also playing great defense. Francona has said all season long if his club plays a clean game (error free, crisp baseball), they are difficult to beat. This is true, but it seems like Maddon's club always plays a clean game. Wednesday night's one-game playoff should be low scoring and it probably will come down to who is more dominant between Alex Cobb and Danny Salazar, as well as the bullpens. The Tribe certainly has a dangerous weapon in the 'pen now in Justin Masterson. These teams are very much alike, it's why they've reached this point and it's why Wednesday night's showdown will be a close match up.
3. Ready for a long game: Be ready for a five hour game…seriously. No sarcasm involved. With Francona and Maddon having fresh bullpens and full benches, they will use every man on the 25-man roster if they have to. This will be treated like a Game 7, as it should be. Both managers have a ton of weapons to use in a lot of different facets of this game and both intend to use them all.
4. Swisher/Bourn/Cabrera: The three highest paid position players on the Indians this season are Nick Swisher, Michael Bourn and Asdrubal Cabrera…now is their time to shine. Yes, all three have been solid throughout this 2013 season and in the second half guys like Swisher and Cabrera really put the pedal to the metal. However, the postseason is when your highly paid starts need to rise to the occasion. Yes, guys like Salazar, Jason Kipnis and Michael Brantley will be vital to this Indians club's success…but the big money players must show up for Cleveland.
5. Packed house: For only the third time this 2013 season Progressive Field will be sold out on Wednesday night for the one-game playoff. The park holds just over 41,000 these days and with the way Progressive field is built architecturally, getting a lot of fans with energy in that place makes it one of the most difficult places to play in Major League Baseball. Opposing players have told me, when Progressive Field is sold out…the ballpark literally shakes. Hopefully fans are into it, I'd expect them to be. And hopefully this draws more people for future games whether it is the Playoffs or next season. Low attendance needs to be fixed and it's a combination of the fans and the Cleveland Indians needing to revisit some things in the offseason. Nevertheless, Wednesday should be fun!
- Nick Camino

The xbox GPU probably wouldn't be supported and plus with the xboxes limited hardware i dont think it would really be worth it trying to get pyrit running on it.
I have been messing with pyrit lately (using purehate's tut), i.e. setting up clusters with my home computers. I have a soft modded xbox with Damn Small Linux (2.4.31 kernel) on it. I was wondering if it would be possible install pyrit on this old xbox. I've looked around and haven't found anyone that's done it yet - but I don't know where to start. I figured I'd ask the pros if it was even possible before wasting my time trying... Thanks
xbox hardware: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NV2A#Te...specifications
DSL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damn_Small_Linux
The xbox GPU probably wouldn't be supported and plus with the xboxes limited hardware i dont think it would really be worth it trying to get pyrit running on it.
wh1t3 fang
As this is neither a forum for DSL or Pyrit I would perhaps ask your question else where. In addition to that, I believe Dex is correct. The original xbox uses an ancient graphics card that is akin to a Geforce3/4. It is an onboard solution (obviously) so there isn't a directly comparable model but the fact is that your mobile phone can probably chew through more keys per second than your xbox.
Computer security is a temporary condition.
well, pyrit doesn't have much in the way of dependencies as I recall, you could just try downloading the source and compiling as per the pyrit installation page. I've used it on my gentoo, and it works fine. At least without ati-stream or CUDA in mind. Again, not sure how purposeful it would be due to the aforementioned limited hardware
Then again, not sure if damn small linux has gcc or similar requirements included.
Yah, your right, no gcc. I tried compiling the dependencies last night and had several issues getting a modern version of python and gcc up and running. I'm going to install gentoo tomorrow and see what I can come up with...like I said, I'm not really concerned with practicality. This is more of a "let's see what this pos can do" mentality. =) Thanks for the replies.

I know you won't be surprised when I tell you I have needed a change in my home for awhile now. I am a decorating addict, and I'm afraid that decorating is something that I just can't seem to ever be "done" with. Ha ha! I love it when people come to my house and they say, "This house is ALWAYS changing!!" It cracks me up {not so much for my husband, but that is besides the point.} When we moved into our home, the plant shelves intimidated me, and I ended up putting all my old decor up there for a few years.
You can get a few little glimpses of the decor that once was below! I know, I know, all you can stare at is my husband's cute butt sticking straight up in the air…it's ok. I give you permission to stare. BAHAHA.

Sidenote: If you want to follow my Inspiration board in Pinterest, you are welcome to. 🙂 After I finally decided that I wanted brick on the wall, I had to go on a "convince Dan to like brick" campaign. It took a few months. But, it worked. He loved the idea. I just had to show him my vision. {He tends to question my vision sometimes.} After we had established the plan, we got busy on our plan of attack!
First, we carefully measured the space above the plant shelf and figured out how many panels we would need to go across the entire space. In order for the brick to look even, we needed the bricks to match up perfectly. Then we headed to Lowes to pick up the faux brick panels. Each sheet was 26.36 {SUPER CHEAP!! YAY}.
Then we started installing the bad boys. Of course when I say "we" I mean HIM. {I'm not much help with this part since I was preventing my children from crawling up the ladder 99.9% of the time}. Mr. All Things Thrifty rocks.
Luckily, I know someone who is a MAJOR perfectionist when it comes to this stuff. {Me, not so much…my hubby is super detail-oriented}. With a few minor hiccups {those darn hiccups} we finally got the brick installed! Want to know the hiccups? Ok, so the brick panels are NOT created equal. Some of them have crooked bricks. Some of the brick panels had broken corners, too. Lameness. Some of the panels had uneven grout lines and wouldn't line up. So, we learned to be SUPER picky when we were picking out the boards. We even laid them out on the floor at LOWES to make sure they would line up once they were cut and hung on the wall. Listen to me…do NOT make my same mistakes. Look closely BEFORE you get the panels home and realize they won't work. Ha ha. Are you anxious to see how we made it look OLD!?!? You are just going to have to wait for PART 2!! xoxo.
UPDATE: Here is the link to PART 2: How to make brick look old!

text: In addition to the other women Jason Aldean cheated on his wife with he also continued to have sex with Brittany Kerr. You remember Brittany. She was on American Idol and did nothing. The only thing of substance she did do was get caught making out in a bar with a married Aldean and then saying she had no idea he was married. Uh huh. As soon as the smoke cleared the two were at it again and apparently have been at it non-stop. She finally felt safe to show her face again since Aldean has filed for divorce. Well, she wasn't the first person or the only person he had sex with while he was married and she won't be the only person he has sex with while they are together so as long as she is ok with that then everything will be good. It is as close as she will probably get to a singing career. I hope his wife makes a ton of money in the divorce.
