1 Back up, restore and share file in the cloud with Proven Military-grade Security Secure Cloud Storage for Small and Medium Enterprises LockCube Whitepaper
2 Data Security in the Cloud Cloud storage is a ma er of choice and trust to enterprises. Data breach is a ma er of redefining data protec on. 3P encryp on will be the key to redefine data protec on and reinstate a culture of choice and trust in the cloud. The challenges of data backup faced by enterprises More and more enterprises are grappling with one common problem where and how to store their cri cal data securely? Some enterprises may store their cri cal data in their computer hard disk or file server or back up to a removable media. But accidents like crashed hard disk, lost USB flash drive or damaged external hard disk do happen. Disasters like flood, fire or earthquake do strike and will destroy all cri cal data alongside with the storage devices in no me. There is no way you can recover these cri cal data stored in the ruined devices. Furthermore, loss of important data may affect a company s business con nuity and progress. In a worst scenario, it may even cause the company to shut down. What about those mobile business professionals who need to access sensi ve data on the go? It is extremely cumbersome for them to carry portable storage devices (like USB flash drive and external hard disk) wherever they go. What if they lose the devices? It means that the unprotected sensi ve data in the lost devices may run the danger of being accessed by someone else. Since they are always on the move, they need the convenience of accessing the data any me, anywhere with their laptop, smart phone and tablet. How to solve their problems? Cloud Storage Solu on Cloud storage is a more efficient and cost effec ve backup solu on for small and medium enterprises, as compared to se ng up a file server in the company or hosted in a remote data center. They can store tons and tons of data in the cloud without having to purchase expensive storage equipments. They can cut down on IT expenses and reduce unnecessary overheads by embracing pay-per-use Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) or So ware-as-a-service (Saas) solu ons. They can also enjoy great scalability and cost savings by scaling their cloud storage according to their requirements and pay only for what they use. Since data is stored in the cloud, enterprises no longer have to worry about unrecoverable data due to crashed hard disks or misplaced USB flash drives or natural disasters. With an Internet connec on, they can access the data any me, anywhere with their laptop, smart phone and tablet. Cloud storage definitely offers numerous benefits to enterprises, but they are s ll hesitant to use it. Why? Data Security in the Cloud - A Top Concern for Enterprises Numerous industry surveys have cited data security as users key concern when pu ng their data in the cloud. Recent news report on hacking ac vi es targeted at big corpora on, government sites and social media increase
3 Security Anti-APT Infrastructure Solutions enterprises concern over data security in the cloud. Their worries over data integrity, privacy and reliability have deterred them from exploi ng the true advantages of cloud storage solu on. Since anyone can access the data stored in the cloud any me and anywhere, there is a possibility that their privacy may be compromised. They are worried that sensi ve data in transit may be compromised by poten al intruders or stolen by their adversaries. Most enterprises are used to storing their informa on in their own premises. They may feel uneasy to entrust their cri cal data to another company for storage. They are concerned that a disgruntled employee of the cloud service provider may poten ally commit an insider a ack. In fact, such data security concerns are not unfounded especially with a data breach incident by a renowned cloud storage provider in June It accidentally allowed anyone to access any user s account without user s knowledge. Massive data breaches are beyond any user s control. They will ul mately make or break an enterprise s choice in u lizing a cloud storage solu on. But we shouldn t resign to this fact. There is a way to store your data securely in the cloud without worrying about security breaches. But you must do it right. What does a good security infrastructure entail? Data security can be a great stumbling block to users easy access to the cloud data any me, anywhere. To make security process less painful, most of the cloud storage providers usually allow the encryp on and decryp on process to be done at the server. In order to perform this encryp on and decryp on process at the server, a single server encryp on key stored at the server is used for encryp ng the storage system. Unfortunately, anyone with access to the server system can then easily access user s data wantonly. Hence, a good and robust data security should cover up such vulnerability by removing all possibili es of exposing the user s key to unauthorized personnel. Every single user has to create, own and safe-keep his/her own unique key that authen cates his/her iden ty. Data encryp on and decryp on process should be performed only at the client side and with a user s encryp on and decryp on key. Unauthorized intruders to the cloud storage server are unable to access the encrypted data without the proper decryp on key. But such sophis cated security infrastructure encompasses extremely complicated technical architecture which requires many years of intensive development and tes ng effort. SecureAge Technology started off by developing security solu ons specifically for the militaries and governments based on stringent security policies. Our cumula ve years of experience have helped us to develop a robust security infrastructure which has been widely deployed by the militaries and governments in the Asia Pacific region. LockCube, developed based on the same security implementa on, is the reliable cloud storage service that genuinely keeps your confiden al data safe in the cloud. LockCube reinvents data security in the cloud. It armours every single data with an invisible cloak of encryp on transparent and automa c to users yet unfathomable to hackers, sniffers and insiders.
4 What is LockCube? What is LockCube? LockCube provides business users a smart and secure way to backup, restore and share any file in the cloud, any me, anywhere, on any device like desktop, laptop, smart phone and tablet. It is the perfect cloud storage service for small and medium enterprises because: i. It is highly affordable as users need to pay only for the storage they use with unlimited access, ii. It fulfills a company s business con nuity and disaster recovery plan by providing a secure and regular offsite backup. iii. It provides company with a cost-effec ve backup alterna ve to costly hardware, servers and databases. iv. It provides company with a simple, reliable and secure way of storing their voluminous data, instead of relying on storage media (like backup tape, external hard disk and USB flash drive) with limited life span. v. It provides company with unlimited scalability of storage space without needing to plan ahead vi. It allows secure business collabora on whereby confiden al informa on can be shared among co-workers, counterparts or customers. vii. It helps company with limited IT resources by cu ng down on the IT support in server maintenance. viii. It provides mobile business professionals an easy and unlimited access to the data any me and anywhere. ix. It provides mul ple access methods via web, direct disk moun ng and dedicated LockCube App. LockCube s Infrastructure with Proven Military-grade Security 1) User s Encryp on Key LockCube is built on a security infrastructure that is proven to be military-grade due to its successful deployment for more than 20,000 militaries and governments in the Asia Pacific region. It eliminates data security concerns by using a comprehensive authen ca on and encryp on technique to ensure that only authorized user is privy to the content of the data. Each and every authorized user creates and safe-keeps his/her own unique encryp on key that is not shared with anyone else. Unlike other cloud storage operators, the user s encryp- on key is not stored at the LockCube server, as stated in LockCube Terms of Service. There is no way anyone, including the LockCube operator, can access the user s data without the key. On the other hand, many other cloud storage providers, using a single server encryp on key, may claim to impose stringent policy to restrain their internal staff from accessing the users data. But human is the weakest link in data security. Any of their disgruntled employees can simply ignore this policy and choose to sabotage the users data. Since only authorized users safe-keep their own encryp- on key, there is no way any insider, sniffer and hacker can compromise the security of the user s data stored at the LockCube cloud storage. Even when a government subpoena orders the surrender of the user s data, it will only expose files with unreadable content. 2) Two Layers of Security Like all the other cloud storage operators, LockCube secures the network transmission between the user machine and LockCube server with SSL/TLS (Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security) technology. But the difference is LockCube uses SecureAge s proprietary SSL VPN solu on to protect the network transmission.
5 How Does LockCube Work? User logs into LockCube via any devices Smartphone File backup Encryp on Key Files get automa cally encrypted before leaving the user s device Back up files from client machine to LockCube Server Desktop Laptop Restores files from LockCube Server to client machine Tablet File restore SSL/TLS SSL/TLS Decryp on Key Shares file with User A and User B Internet Files get automa cally decrypted when downloaded File sharing SSL/TLS User A access shared encrypted file User B access shared encrypted file Decryp on Key Decryp on Key Shared file gets automa cally decrypted when User A and User B access it SecureAge SSL VPN secures all remote access to the network by using SSL as the underlying security protocol to prevent access by unauthorized users. SSL enables secure HTTPS sessions by securing data above the transport layer without interfering with the lower layer network services. But SSL only protects the network transmission and the data in mo on is s ll vulnerable to poten al sniffers using man-in-the-middle a acks. Hence, LockCube for fies the security by providing another layer of protec on - data encryp on based on SecureAge s proprietary 3P (Proac ve, Persistent and Pervasive) technology. With 3P technology, files get automa cally encrypted at the client machine, remain con nuously encrypted before, during and a er they travel over the Internet and even when residing at the LockCube server. In short, 3P technology provides end-to-end data protec on that forbids any unauthorized intermediary party from accessing the data. LockCube s two layers of security give users a complete peace of mind knowing that it will be a more secured storage op on than their own local network storage as it fully protects user s data against malicious a acks.
6 LockCube Infrastructure 3) Encryp on at File-level Secures Data in Mo on and at Rest LockCube leverages on AES (Advanced Encryp on Standard) to encrypt each file with 256-bit unique session key. 256-bit AES is the strongest encryp on standard in the world today against brute-force a ack. It is cer fied to be used for protec ng secret level data by the US government and Department of Defense. As cited in Wikipedia s Brute-force a ack, Breaking a symmetric 256-bit key by brute force requires mes more computa onal power than a 128-bit key. A device that could check a billion billion (10 18 ) AES keys per second would in theory require about 3x10 51 years to exhaust the 256-bit key space. Unlike other cloud storage operators, LockCube provides file-level encryp on that encrypts individual file with the user s encryp on key at the client machine. These files, when accessed, will be decrypted automa cally via the authorized user s corresponding decryp- on key. Since individual file remains persistently encrypted before, during and a er travelling over the Internet, there is no way any hacker, sniffer and insider can access the encrypted files without the user s decryp on key. Many other cloud storage operators also claim that they provide data encryp on to secure user s data. Before jumping straight into their service, it is advisable to always step back and truly study their security architecture. In fact, most of them encrypt the data only at the server via full disk encryp on. Full disk encryp on uses the same encryp on key to encrypt the en re disk or server but not the individual file. Once the system has started up, it can read every single file as plain data. Hence, full disk encryp on is like a bank vault with the door wide open, and once the users data travel out of this bank vault, it will be unprotected and vulnerable to intruder a acks. It is an adequate protec on for laptop and portable storage device when they are lost. But it is definitely not a foolproof data protec on in the cloud since any of the cloud storage operator s employees and hackers can easily access the user s data. 3) On-the-fly Encryp on - Automa c and Transparent LockCube enables automa c data encryp on and decryp on without a user s conscious effort to manually encrypt and decrypt every single file. The data encryp on and decryp on process is so transparent that the users are not even aware of it. It is as if each and every data is armoured with an invisible cloak of encryp on that does not disrupt a user s rou ne access to the data in LockCube cloud storage. Acknowledging that human is the weakest link in data security, sophis cated security technologies are incorporated into LockCube to provide users a secure but convenient mean of accessing the data without requiring their conscious involvement in protec ng their data. 5) Mobile Device Data Encryp on LockCube provides LockCube App for mobile device to allow users to securely store and access any files in the cloud with any mobile device like Android smartphone, Android tablet, iphone and ipad. It leverages on 256-bit AES encryp on and TLS (Transport Layer Security) technology to securely upload and download any files (such as Microso Office documents, PDFs, Contacts, videos, photos and songs) any me and anywhere. During any upload, the data are automa cally encrypted before leaving the mobile device and remain con nuously encrypted as they transmit over the Internet right up to the LockCube server. Likewise, when the data is downloaded from the LockCube server to the mobile device, the data remain encrypted on the smartphone or tablet repositories. The data will be decrypted only when user access them via LockCube App for mobile device. This is known as end-to-end security technology that ensures only authorized users with the right encryp on key are privy to the content of the data. Any intruder or trespasser will not have an avenue to sniff for valuable
7 Key Features data around the public network, from the cloud storage or from the mobile device. Therefore, users no longer have to worry about other people accessing their sensi- ve data when they lost their mobile device. 6) Flexible Customiza on SecureAge Technology has accumulated years of experience in customizing addi onal security capabili- es for large enterprises, par cularly for the government. We can custom-built addi onal security features into LockCube in order to meet your corporate policies and security requirements. We provide the op on of incorpora ng two-factor authen ca on into LockCube. So apart from the usual login and encryp on authen ca on, companies can also provide a second layer of authen ca on via either mobile phones or smart card or USB token. Key Features To start using LockCube, users need to download a LockCube App via Java applet. LockCube App offers many useful func ons like backup, restore, share and LockCube account and session management. 1) A Total Backup Solu on with In-file Delta Technology that creates versioning of backup folders by specific date and me. It allows users to salvage the original file even when the current version is corrupted or accidentally deleted. It also saves the user s storage space since the unmodified files are not replicated. LockCube comes with a powerful backup func onality that prevents data loss and helps enterprises to fulfil their disaster recovery and business con nuity plan. It supports both manual and scheduler op ons. Scheduler gives users the flexibility of defining a recurring backup date and me that will not disrupt their work rou nes. LockCube enables a highly efficient incremental backup of voluminous files by using in-file delta technology. During the backup process, the in-file delta technology will check and compare the en re backup files with those stored in the cloud storage. It will then iden fy and automa cally backup only those modified data within a file but not the en re file. Hence, it reduces subsequent backup me and network bandwidth usage significantly. Users, who have access to high speed fibre network will get the most benefits out of this smart technology. They can enjoy daily backup of huge data size of up to 500 GB (Gigabytes) at a very high speed. LockCube also caters for data backup with unlimited versioning using in-file delta technology. The smart versioning feature supports me-stamping capability
8 Key Features 2) LockCube as a Network Access Storage (NAS) LockCube a aches the cloud storage to the user s machine as a network drive known as LockCube drive (usually Z:\). It works like a normal NAS drive that provides users with a direct access mechanism to their data in LockCube cloud storage. Users can view their files using file explorer, drag and drop their files for copying, using any applica on to access their files directly, and even execute program stored on LockCube cloud storage. In short, it gives users the convenience to store, open, edit, save, copy and paste any file just like a computer local drive. Since edi ng and saving of the files are done directly on the LockCube drive, traces of temporary files will only be created on this LockCube drive and not on the computer local drive. Hence, users do not have to worry about leaving trails of sensi ve data in their computer. 3) Secure File Sharing LockCube is built with a sophis cated PKI based technology that is transparent to the end users. It uses RSA public key cryptography to enable a user to securely share file with his/her designated recipient(s). A file, when shared, is encrypted specifically for the chosen recipient(s). Only the authorized recipient(s) can decrypt the shared file with their corresponding decryp on key. 4) Restores any File Securely LockCube allows users to restore their files securely from the LockCube cloud storage to their client machine. This is an extremely useful feature for users to recover all their cri cal data when their computer hard disks crash, when their handheld devices are lost, or when disasters strike. During the restora on process, files get automa cally decrypted via the user s corresponding decryp on key on their local machine. The en re decryp on process is seamless and invisible to the users.
9 Technical Features 5) SecureDrive An encryp on U lity LockCube is the world s first cloud storage service to provide an encryp on u lity, SecureDrive. SecureDrive is a value-added op on for users to either rapidly backup voluminous data or promptly restore cri cal data during disaster recovery via a removable media (eg USB flash drive and external hard disk), with the help of the LockCube Team. It uses 256-bit AES to automa cally encrypt/decrypt files with user s encryp on/decryp on key. Hence, users will have peace of mind knowing that the LockCube Team, when performing file backup or restore, is unable to view the encrypted files without the user s decryp on key. SecureDrive also allows users to salvage their cri cal data. The LockCube Team helps users to restore all encrypted files from LockCube cloud storage to user s removable media. The user will, in turn, use Secure- Drive to copy and decrypt the encrypted files from the removable media back to their local hard drive or file server. Users can enjoy a hassle-free backup of more than 50GB of data by using SecureDrive to copy and encrypt all files from the local hard drive, file server, or even the LockCube drive to any removable media. The LockCube Team will then help users to copy the encrypted files from the removable media directly to LockCube cloud storage. Technical Features Military grade security implementa on 256-bit AES data encryp on Unique session key for each encrypted files Full RSA public key encryp on support Master encryp on key is owned by the user and not accessible by the server SSL VPN tunnel between user machine and LockCube server for double layer security protec on A total backup solu on that provides secure remote data backup support Unlimited versioning of backup data with file level deduplica on support Secure disk moun ng of LockCube Storage as network a ached storage (NAS) Mobile support for ios and Android devices Easy access to user s cloud data using web, mobile device, restore tool and direct disk access Op onal direct access service to LockCube storage server for quick backup and restore opera ons Op onal 2FA authen ca on support Need More Information?

He's still just a teenager, already has more money in the bank than some adults will make in their lifetime and has a wealth of talent that quickly grabbed the attention of his industry.
For a change, Justin Bieber is not the teen in question.
Rather, we're talking about Bryce Harper, who brought a slice of Bieber-like fervor to the typically tranquil environs of Washington Nationals camp in Viera, Fla. today.
The Nationals expected Harper, 18, to merely undergo his physical examination and take the rest of the day off, returning tomorrow for the club's first full-squad workout.
But Harper suited up, shagged fly balls for a bit and took about 40 swings in batting practice, clouting four home runs, according to the Washington Post's Adam Kilgore.
Then, it was on.
Kilgore paints a scene at least faintly similar to the Beatles' Hard Days Night, only this time it's a baseball player known for his creative use of eye black rather than a mop-topped rock star creating a stir.
Writes Kilgore:
When his short workout ended, the real challenge began. Trying to walk off the field, a small mob of 50 fans surrounded him, thrusting pens, paper and magazine covers in his face. He signed for several minutes, at which point security and a Nationals public relations official led him away.
This is the second consecutive spring the Nationals have dealt with such a stir; in 2010, it was Stephen Strasburg with all eyes on him. But pitchers don't throw bullpens every day, and of course only pitch live every few days in spring training.
A 19-year-old launching batting practice moon shots into the air at Space Coast Stadium? That figures to ramp up the gawker factor quite a bit, at least until Harper is reassigned to minor league camp.
For now, however, it appears Harper has already started to earn the $9.9 million the Nationals guaranteed him. With Strasburg on the shelf, the kid has, for now, made the club relevant again.
Daily Pitch is a baseball fan's destination for breaking news, emerging trends and enlightening banter. With a veteran group of reporters positioned in three time zones, we provide a balanced, comprehensive glimpse at our national pastime, with a nod to both the passion and complexities that make the sport irresistible to many.

Plato at the Googleplex (MLF)
The Commonwealth Club
Thursday, March 13, 2014 from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM (PDT)
Rebecca Goldstein, MacArthur Fellow, Professor of Philosophy; Author, Plato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won't Go Away
Imagine that Plato came to life in the 21st century and set out on a multi-city speaking tour. How would he handle a Fox News host who challenges him on religion and morality? How would he mediate a debate on the best way to raise a child between a Freudian psychoanalyst and a Tiger Mom? How would he answer a neuroscientist who argues that all philosophical problems can be solved by our new technologies? What would he make of the idea that knowledge can be crowdsourced rather than reasoned out? With a philosopher's depth and a novelist's imagination, Goldstein probes the deepest issues confronting us by allowing us to eavesdrop on Plato as he encounters the modern world.
MLF: Humanities
Location: SF Club Office
Time: 5:30 p.m. networking reception, 6 p.m. program, 7 p.m. book signing
Cost: $20 non-members, $8 members, $7 students (with valid ID)

Royal Inquisition is the sixth chapter of the fourth act of Gears of War 2.
Cut SceneEdit
In the room where Delta had just killed a massive group of Locust, they find computers and a diagram on the wall detailing the Locust plan to sink Jacinto. Dom wonders why the Locust would do it if it would flood the Hollow and drown them, but Marcus finally figures out the Locust motivation in the war: they're desperate due to their war with the Lambent. As Marcus orders JACK to hack into the Locust computers and see what he can find, another transmission comes from the Locust Queen causing Cole to grab a microphone and make a broadcast of his own announcing Delta's presence and promising to kill all the Locust and their "bitch-ass queen" to Delta's amusement and the Locust's confusion. Afterwards, Baird disables the Queen's broadcast system and compliments Cole's speech. When Marcus asks if JACK found anything, he broadcasts a message recorded in the computers by a voice Dom and Marcus are surprised to recognize stating that if the humans flood the Hollow by sinking Jacinto themselves, the Locust would drown and they could end the war but would have to sacrifice their last possible refuge. Marcus tells the rest of his surprised squad that the man is his father Adam Fenix and though they have no idea what he's doing in the Locust computers, Marcus sees his plan as a way to finish the Locust for good. Baird tells him its crazy and not to listen even if it is his father, but Marcus tells him to consider it a back-up if they can't kill the Locust Queen. Marcus orders JACK to send the data on the plan back to Command and the squad to get moving again.
Split up and fight the Palace GuardsEdit
After the level starts, you all approach a door, with a lot of weapons on the floor including a Torque Bow, and Mulcher and a few more ammo pickups. You can pick any weapon you like. Then after getting out, Cole will scream and you can pull a lever in the middle. You will spit up. Either side is the same, also packed with same enemies. One thing fun is either Delta 1 or Delta 2 chose the left side, Cole or Baird will jam their rifles while getting down. Then you will encounter a lot of enemies, including Palace Guards, two Maulers and a small group of Tickers. After Delta 1 and Delta 2 regroup, they will reach a lift. Activate it and descend.
Traps await...Edit
When you get down, advance and you will see that the floor breaks, cutting your path. Quickly take cover and ready your rifles. Gnasher Shotgun may not work in this place. The enemies will be in front. Kill them and the floor will be "back". Advance and there will be two paths. It's not a split up, and it doesn't matter which side you take. There will be three packs of cover, and the floor will drop down again. Take cover and kill all the enemies. When you reach a place with cover around, take cover at the left. Enemies will come and attack again, so try to kill them. Left side is a flank. Enemies do not have cover at your side. If you could not kill all, some of them will pull a lever and activate the stairs and flank you if you're in the middle cover. After killing all of them, move forward and reach a square ground. You will all fall into a trap as the floor suddenly drops down. A wave of Palace Guards will attack you. Turn the wheel to get back up. In Insane difficulty, you must kill them all so you won't be killed while turning the wheel because after they're all dead, another wave of Locust will approach and attack in the opposite side of the wheel. They cannot kill you due to the pillar of the wheel blocking all the bullets. When you're back up, you will see the door to the Locust Queen.
Meeting with the Locust QueenEdit
Entering the throne room, Delta finds the Locust Queen and Skorge. To their surprise, the Queen looks human instead of Locust and speaks perfect Tyran. The Queen tells them they are the first and last humans to desecrate her palace. When Marcus points out that due to her plan to sink Jacinto they will be the last, the Queen informs them she is aware of their plan to sink Jacinto first due to Skorge and she has sent an army to Jacinto to stop them, alarming Delta. The Queen asks if Marcus is the son of Adam Fenix and laments that he didn't follow his father's path. She refuses to elaborate on this statement and leaves, ordering Skorge to destroy Delta. Marcus orders Cole and Baird to chase the Queen while he and Dom deal with Skorge.
Battle with SkorgeEdit
You will find that your equipment has been replaced with a Lancer, a Gnasher, a Snub Pistol, and no grenades. First, Skorge will jump to the ceiling and cut down the light and then will jump from where it crashed and engage a Chainsaw duel with you. To survive, keep pressing B to cut him, and when he fails to cut you, he will use the handle to avoid being chainsawed. Marcus will cut the staff in two and cut Skorge's chest. Skorge will not seem to be affected by this. Skorge then jumps to the ceiling. He will then drop down on one side of the room behind the pillars and will summon a few of Tickers as he fires his Gorgon Pistol. Sometimes he may even knock down the torches near him, which explode and he will also throw Ink Grenades. While Skorge is attacking, you cannot attack him. During this, you can equip your shotgun to kill the Tickers Dom misses. Then, when he jumps to the ceiling again, he will cut down a stalactite. You will not see him, but you will see ashes dropping down. Dodge when you see the ashes falls. He will likely drop more Ink Grenades before he jumps down by the pillars, and cuts down one of the ten pillars. As the pillar falls, it will fall at an angle aiming for the player. When you hear Dom yell "Dodge... Now!", roll and/or roadie run away. By moving to the opposite side of the room away from the pillar, you can also dodge the falling pillar. If the player survives the falling pillar without being downed or dying, Skorge will attack with his chainsaw staffs, resulting in another chainsaw duel. Remember, equip the Lancer if you were using the Gnasher; if you fail to do this, you will automatically lose the duel. If the player wins against Skorge the second time, one side of his chainsaw staff will be destroyed and he will drop that piece after he uses it to shield himself from Marcus's attack. When Skorge returns to the ceiling, the player will have to raise the covers again by running across a glowing button in the center of the floor. Dodge all of Skorge's other attacks until he attacks with the remaining half of his staff in a chainsaw duel, which when the player wins, the Chainsaw Staff will make a sound like being burnt-out because Skorge uses it to shield himself from taking a full assault from Marcus. After three cuts on Skorge's chest, he will call in his Hydra, and use it to escape.
Regroup and get outEdit
Leave the room and approach Cole and Baird who reveal that the Locust Queen escaped on a Reaver before they could stop her. They found that in the end of this corridor are two Reavers to help them escape back to Jacinto. When the bridge is open, roadie run along the bridge to avoid missiles from Skorge's Hydra. After Delta reaches the room with two Reavers, they board them, fleeing the palace.
- Upon completing this chapter, you will unlock the "Have Fun Storming the Castle" achievement.
- When fighting Skorge, it is possible for any of the Chainsaw duels to end in a draw. When they end in a draw, Skorge will comment, "Useless!" (referring to his staff) before jumping to the ceiling.
- This fight is one of the few major fights in all of Gears of War that cannot be won with any actual gunfire.
- The very first time Skorge comes to engage you in a chainsaw duel, you will have a few brief seconds after the cutscene to pull out a shotgun or pistol. doing so will engage the regular chainsaw duel, only with Marcus wielding a shotgun or pistol. the duel will always end in a tie, but as previously mentioned, this only works on the first chainsaw duel.
- Depending on which path you choose, Baird or Cole will always reload, then jam their gun for no known reason as they descend in the elevator.

We've got our second installment of our occasional series profiling some of the bloggers writing about the Nationals every day. I sat down earlier this month with Ian Koski, the co-founder of Nationals Daily News. A former newspaper reporter who now works as a political strategist, Koski helps manage a site that now includes nine writers. He and I discussed the site, now in its sixth season, and traded some thoughts on the Nationals, which will run tomorrow. The first part of our conversation is below:
BG: Start by telling me a little bit about the site, when it got started and why.
IK: It started a little over five years ago. My then-roommate, Mike Kanick, and I said, "'Hey, there's this baseball team coming to town, and there's no presence for it. There's very little marketing, and we said, 'Let's give it a shot.'" We didn't know what the hell we were doing. We started by aggregating the news stories that were out there. A couple months later, we said, 'We should have a blog of some kind.' That blog started with just the two of us. We'd post every week or so. At that point, we'd have 30 visitors a day. That was huge! We couldn't believe 30 people cared at all what we had to say. Since then, it's grown. We've now got nine writers for the site. Some of them are people we knew were interested in baseball. Others were real fans of the site and came to us. Our capacity in web development has grown significantly. Every year, we update the site with new technology, with better design, new content. At the core of the site is still the aggregation of daily news coverage. The traffic tends to bear out that people come for the news; they stay for the opinions. They come back for the opinions. The morning traffic tends to be about getting news, and the afternoon traffic tends to be about the opinions. We have some great writers with pretty diverse perspectives. You never know what people really care about. We've got a guy who likes to review bars and restaurants in a sports context. And those stories do as well as the regular news. There's a whole constituency of people who care about the history of Washington baseball. It's great.
BG: What was behind the name change (from Nationals Pride to Nationals Daily News)?

IK: Five years of confusion. We really committed this year -- before we knew we were going to have access -- to be more of a news venue than a blog. We felt the need to differentiate between blogs, that were kind of just opining on whatever was happening that day, and reporting. We always felt we were more reporting-focused. I remember one of our guys, Mike Henderson, he was doing interviews and would say, 'I write for Nationals Pride,' and people would say, 'What the hell is Nationals Pride?' We considered about a dozen different names that all sounded like newspapers. While something like TBD is trying to run away from a newspaper-sounding name, we felt it was a step toward credibility.
BG: Of the Nats blogs out there, yours particularly seems to have more direction and more of a well-defined structure than a lot of them. Are you primarily responsible for calling the shots there?
IK: Before I turned to the dark side of politics, I was a reporter and editor. I covered a lot of college basketball, college football, baseball, just every now and then a little bit of pro stuff, in college and after college. The journalism thing never left me - at least, it hasn't left me yet. From Day One, we said, 'We're not going to be a gossipy blog. We're not going to be irresponsible and say stuff just for the sake of getting a rise out of people. We're always going to be more reporting-focused. This year, now that we have the access to do that, we're trying to make the most of it, with as much original reporting as possible. It's certainly not our goal to replace the reporting done by you guys, the beat reporters. We just can't do it. That's not our need. That's why we don't write game recaps. We want to try to provide slightly left- or right-of-center stuff that the beat writers can't necessarily get to, stuff that we have specific curiosity about, just let the fans get a little bit closer to the game.
Having the photography we have now, whether we shoot it or others from the online (photography) pool shoot it, that's just been tremendous for the site. The action photos make the coverage that much more real and engaging, whether it's in the lead position on the home page or with our blog posts. It's just been an incredible asset for us.

BG: With as many writers as you have, do people kind of just write what they want, or is there a plan in advance?
IK: Last year, I would send out e-mails with a list of 15 story ideas. This year, I haven't had to do that so much. People tend to have their own areas of expertise. There's a guy who's ridiculously statistically-oriented. We call him Stat Boy. And then we've got now (former Washington Times sports business reporter) Tim (Lemke), of course, too. He's got this tremendous experience. People come up with their own ideas. Sometimes, story leads will come from (Nationals Park), and Mike Henderson or I can't get to it. So I'll say, 'Hey, there's this,' or 'Someone's got to write about Tyler Clippard today,' and they'll do that. But it's pretty organic. We were getting to the point last year where people were publishing so frequently that sometimes their story would get pushed down. So we built in some automatic queueing, so stories wouldn't pile up.
BG: That's the other thing with the site -- the design of it is certainly superior to most of the fan sites out there and really competes with most of the professional stuff. Are you in charge of that?
IK: My day job is (being) a web strategist for candidates. I have the designer (responsibilities) inherently. So every year - it seems to get earlier and earlier, and it really depends on how the team's doing - I start redesigning the site. Last year I started in August. This whole concept of the way news is presented online is evolving. It's changing. I don't think anyone's perfected it yet. But we have the opportunity and the flexibility to do it. I don't have a boss telling me, 'You're not allowed to spend your time designing the site.' And frankly, we keep on getting new material. Next year, we'll shift again to focus a little more on the original reporting. We'd hoped video would be a bigger segment this year, but there's only so much time in the day. Our podcast kind of has died off, because I now live in the District, one of us still lives in Virginia and another one lives in Maryland --and that one's got a kid.
I really believe, though, that the strength of our site isn't in the technology -- it's in the writers. They provide a constant flow of ideas and energy. The site would be nowhere without them.
BG: So what's the goal?
IK: The goal is to keep doing it. This is enjoyable for us. It's 7:00, I've been at work already for 12 hours, and this is still enjoyable. And the fact is, we now have a really significant readership, people who like it, depend on it, throw up one hand if the site goes down. People get some value out of it. And so long as that's happening, and we're still having fun doing it, we'll keep up with it. There's no goal. It's not to get rich. It would be nice to cover costs. I'm not going to lie. It hurts to suffer a loss to do it. But it's still worth it.

Well, United's Nothing if Not Consistent
I'm now home, after two very smooth flights.
My luggage is still in Denver.
At least I'm in my own house, with extra clothing!

With owners and players still hundreds of millions of dollars apart and unable to agree on how to split the loot, the final negotiating session Thursday for a new labor deal is looking like an exercise in futility.
The two sides are scheduled meet in Manhattan, with only a small contingent of reps from both sides attending, rather than a full-blown meeting with dozens of players participating. There is a midnight deadline, but no one involved in the talks expects a midnight miracle.
As it stands, there is little chance that the owners decide to extend the deadline. No one involved in the talks expects any more progress than has already been made, and that's been nothing more than a few baby steps.
"There is nothing new," one dejected union voice said Wednesday. "Nothing has changed. Nothing at all."

The federal government's vow to reduce domestic roaming costs is drawing mixed response from wireless carriers.
Some new entrant carriers applauded Ottawa's plan, which was briefly outlined in Wednesday's Speech from the Throne. The government, however, provided no details on how it would accomplish that goal beyond saying it would "take steps to reduce roaming costs on networks within Canada."

Not a Surprise: Colin Powell Endorses Obama for a Second Term
Filed Under Politics | 36 Comments
Can everybody in the world please stop referring to Powell as a "Republican" now? Probably not:
Former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed President Barack Obama for a second term Thursday, telling "CBS This Morning" that he voted for Obama in 2008 but this time was going further and publicly backing him.
"We've come out of the dive and we're starting to gain altitude," Powell said. "The unemployment rate is too high, people are still hurting in housing, but I see that we're starting to rise up."
Powell said that when Obama took over "the country was in very, very difficult straits. We were in the one of the worst recessions we had seen in recent times, close to a depression."
Reuters doesn't plan to stop calling him a Republican any time soon:
"I think we ought to keep on the track that we are on," the Republican, who also backed Obama in 2008, told "CBS This Morning," adding, "I voted for him in 2008 and I plan to stick with him in 2012."
Just a few months after Obama took office Powell expressed dismay that the president he voted for wasn't being more fiscally responsible, but I guess Powell figures that Obama has since redeemed himself by only running up $5 trillion in debt in his term with four consecutive years of trillion-plus deficits:

Really Powell. Tell that to the millions of Americans who are unemployed, given up on finding employment and have either lost their homes or are facing the prospect of foreclosure.

Meanwhile, the false letter campaign in Florida is growing. Now the GOP State Chairman has received one of these phony letters claiming he is ineligible to vote. Again these letters seem to be post marked out of Seattle. The FBI is investigating, but I am guessing they will not find the culprits until at least Nov 7th.

Colin Powell did a good job as SoS, always struck me as intelligent and considerate. I thought it stupid, but understandable that he`d want the first black candidate as Pres. It`s wanting him to continue his destruction of all that is American, seeing that as in any way a positive, that surprises me. He seems to have needed that structured life of following orders in the military and gov. service; thinking on his own is not his strong suit !

That sounds just about right. Besides, DOJ is too busy in Seattle dictating policies to the Seattle PD to be bothered looking for culprits.

O/T…All-Red got shot down in court today. The divorce records were unselaed without any objections from anyboedy (including the Romney camp), but the gag order was not lifted on All-Red's client….because she forgot to actually file an official motion to do so. So the records are out there, but All-Red's client cannot go star in the next Obama ad….lol
Sounds like the judge is not even going to entertain anything more on the subject either.

In this case I don't think her politics (not she which side she falls on to be honest) had nothing to do with it. I am guessing she just did not want her court to be turned into a circus. She went with what all sides agreed was fine and did not entertain anything that was ot filed. Sounds to me like she followed the rule of law. What a pleasant concept.

Further, as a former ground pounder, Powell would be better served steering clear of aviation analogies. "Gaining altitude"? That's a little tough when you've already "augered in".

His son headed the FCC so likely he's trying to curry favor w/ those he feels can best further that offspring's career. A 2nd Bammie term would essentially give him the same role as Josef Goebbels.
In his mind it's worth the risk. And HUMILIATION.

I'll get caught up on the link but what is it just a matter it was such a "carpet bombing campaign" the State Chairman just so happened to become ensnared?

"economic warfare on a group of American companies that do business in Israel, including Hewlett-Packard, Caterpillar Inc., and Motorola Solutions Inc.
The Human Rights Council (HRC), a body dominated by Islamic countries and known for its hostility to, and heavy focus on, the Jewish State, issued the report. The George W. Bush administration refused to participate in the HRC, but President Barack Obama joined it soon after taking office."
Wrong on SO many levels! Just 'American' companies, right!? And most of those would be uh… SALES ( not purchases you mf'ers! ) Great, let's put more workers out in the street. HRC is lousy w/ Jihadi sympathizers. Like All Our pResident! Fie, foo, SPIT.

Victoria's Secret model Erin Heatherton may have dated Leonardo di Caprio, but as the latest face of Sydney's Strand Arcade, she's accessorising with a local girl's ideal accessory: a Stenmark twin. (For those who need to know these things, this one's Jordan – he's the twin with the stubble, while Zac is the clean-shaven one with the wider face).
Heatherton fronts the much-loved Arcade's Spring/Summer 2014 campaign, which launches with its Evening With our Designers event and the release of its 1891 fashion newspaper featuring Heatherton as cover girl.
Heatherton, who's been partying and playing her way round Sydney with her Aussie musician boyfriend Felix Bloxsom, told S she loves spending time here and has a special soft spot for Bondi.
"I was really shocked by the sense of community around Bondi. I love the accessibility to head over after work, go for a swim, and run into so many friends. There's a real natural flow to life that revolves around the beach. It's really peaceful and humbling. A big change from living in NYC!"
She says she enjoyed good chemistry with Stenmark, pictured in this exclusive preview of the 1891 shoot. "He was the best - so professional and sweet. He even helped me up after every shot and was a good anchor to lean on. A real gentleman."
Heatherton's heart, though, remains with Bloxsom and she described her ideal downtime with the drummer, DJ and producer.
"I love to cook at home - Felix cooks really - and go on bike rides, walk to the river to watch the sunset, work out, take long baths, and explore new things in the city," she says.
Meanwhile, Australia provides all the things Heatherton loves: "Sun, friends, beach, music, laughs, and letting go."
