Originally scheduled to launch in July, it seems Petroglyph is no longer developer the title, which has moved internally at UTV True Games, with the launch date moved until Q2 2011.
Mytheon is an online micro transaction game that uniquely combines the best elements of action, strategy and RPG game-play with a heavy emphasis on collectability and combat. This visually stunning title is set within a fantasy universe steeped in unique mythologies from across the globe. Players will first embark on a rousing journey through the extensive lore of ancient Greece; with ongoing expansions to follow that will delve into exotic mythologies from the far-flung corners of history. With real-time combat and extensive customization features, Mytheon will offer infinite replayability through group, PVP and solo play as well as an integrated social networking feature set.
Using some of the best and most familiar mechanics from traditional collectible card games, players will earn, buy, trade and collect stones they can assemble similar to deck-building among a thriving online community. Several compelling features have been added to create fast, visually stunning 3D combat sequences with a deep layer of strategy beneath it. In the game, players will collect and customize a vast assortment of "Power Stones" which are used to conjure devastating spells and summon faithful minions in climactic battles against monsters and other players. Mytheon will offer three distinct character classes, each specializing in a specific "Power Stone" type, such as summoning or healing.

August 2012
August 31, 2012: It's Editor Sawyer's birthday today, but his present came early in the form of a column from race driver and entrepreneur Andy Pilgrim (pictured). The British-born racer joins the TVD staff as an occasional contributor, and reviews a vehicle you might find surprising. We certainly did. Speaking of surprises, we discover tires that can spell. And Osram introduces a low-cost LED solution for front fog lights. Dan Brochstein takes us behind the scenes at the recent Concours d'Elegance of America, and picks a few favorites. Al Vinikour drives the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe and Santa Fe Sport, and comes back impressed. Former Lotus CEO Dany Bahar sues his former employer while it puts his former company car on the auction block. Editor Sawyer takes a look at the new CAFE standards, and gets a Red scare. And Al Vinikour take aim at the one of the most annoying, exasperating and stupid devices ever fitted to an automobile.
August 24, 2012: The week was filled with travel, specifically out to Laguna Seca where Editor Sawyer attended the U.S. launch of the BMW M5, M6 and Gran Coupé. And while running around the Corkscrew was fun, the real tale was told out on the road. Are these cars road course heroes and rolling ego strokes, or are they capable of dispatching with the daily grind as well as trail braking? The heavy travel schedule also meant Al Vinikour was only able to give us his view of vinyl roofs, a.k.a. bad toupees for cars. White hot in the 1960, 1970s and even the 1980s, these plastic abominations still pop up today. Which is enough to make Al see red.
August 17, 2012: There were two major unveilings at Pebble Beach this week. First up is the new Ferrari F12berlinetta. With more than 700 horsepower and lb-ft of torque, it's so fast the name ran together. Next up is the latest Range Rover. With an aluminum body/chassis unit, it's significantly lighter than its BMW-designed predecessor. Ford launched its new Advanced Electrification Center this week, but it only underlines the fact that politics, not demand is driving the market in this direction. Also, Harris Interactive polled drivers from 18 to 66 about in-car connectivity, and the results may surprise you. Ever want to dress up your garage door, but wanted something that was more visually arresting than a new paint color? A company in Munich, Germany has just what you need. Finally, Al tells us why, if you don't like you child's driving, you're to blame.
August 10, 2012: As we were going to press, news broke that Jay Penske, owner of IndyCar's Dragon Racing team had been arrested along with his older brother on a variety of charges. This comes on the heels of AJ Allmendinger's problems, and sets a high bar for punishment. This isn't a story with shades of gray, but of yellow. Al Vinikour features prominently this week. The Editor takes a chance and sends the automotive technophobe to Ford's Van Dyke Transmission plant to report on the company's new in-house hybrid transmission. He also spent a week with a supercharged Range Rover (poor baby), and gives us his impressions. Plus, his Tirade take a backwards glance at rearview cameras and their place in the automotive firmament. Editor Sawyer, meanwhile, spent a week with Audi's S4 quattro sport sedan, but couldn't quite give it a 5 out of 5 rating. Find out why. Plus, he gives a preview of the lighter, more fuel-efficient 2013 Nissan Pathfinder and the sybaritic 2013 Lexus LS with its sport-oriented F Sport variant.
August 3, 2012: First came word that Chief Marketing Officer Joel Ewanick "resigned" before GM issued a terse press release calling into question Ewanick's character. It was followed by word that designer Dave Lyon was fired a week or so before heading to Germany to lead design operations over there, and rumors began to fly that the new Corvette isn't very handsome. We speculate what might be behind this busy but bad week at GM. On a lighter note, we drive Audi's supercharged A6 quattro. Jump inside to see if it's everything you could ever want or less than expected. Al drives the 2013 Audi allroad, the first car is seven years to wear that badge in the U.S. BMW adds a new bike to its lineup, the HP4. We take a look. And Al Vinikour asks why automakers can't design a decent cupholder.

Today I went to the San Anita Racetrack in Arcadia, California with my family. It was the first time I had seen horses race, and the first time I had bet money on horses to win. It was fun to pick from the silly names (such as Inner Groove, Magic School, and Political Man) and to spend time with my family cheering the horses on as they burst from the gates.
Horse racing has a long history—it's been found that it even occurred in ancient Greece, Babylon, Syria, and Egypt. Chariot and mounted horse races were even featured in the ancient Greek Olympics in 648 B.C. Back then it was much less safe, though. Because the ground was so rough and hard, if a rider accidentally fell from the horse, they usually died.
Animal Planet used to have a show called JOCKEYS that told about the lives of those talented riders that race their horses to the finish line. You can now find these episodes online.
For those that love the beauty and grace of these great creatures, we have a selection of horse puzzles. Here are some favorites.

Lawmakers hope to limit tax lawsuit impact
By JONATHAN J. COOPER
Of the Associated Press
SALEM — The Oregon Senate voted Thursday to back a maneuver aimed at limiting the potential loss from a high-stakes lawsuit that could cost the state as much as $100 million a year in corporate tax revenue.
A case in the state tax court is challenging Oregon's method of taxing companies that do business in more than one state.
If the state loses, it would be on the hook for refunds, and corporations could in the future choose the taxation formula most beneficial to them.
On Thursday, the Senate unanimously passed and sent to the House a measure that restates Oregon's existing policy in hopes that will at least protect future revenue in case the state loses. The state would still owe refunds for up to three tax years.
The lawsuit stems from a multistate tax compact that Oregon joined in the 1960s. The compact says states should tax multistate corporations based on three, equally weighted factors: Their sales, payroll and property in the state. Starting the early 1990s, Oregon began transitioning to a different approach called the single sales factor, which taxes only a company's in-state sales.
The new method is hugely beneficial to companies like Nike Inc., and Intel Corporation, which have significant payroll and property expenses in Oregon but a tiny share of their revenue. The single sales factor is so important to Nike that the company convinced Gov. John Kitzhaber and state lawmakers to meet in an emergency session last year to promise that Nike could continue using the taxation formula for at least 30 years.
But other companies were charged more under the single sales factor, which was fully implemented in 2005 — particularly firms with significant sales here but few employees and little property.
Health Net, a California-based insurance company with operations in Oregon, filed a lawsuit arguing that the formula in the multistate compact trumps the newer single sales factor.
"When we adopted the single sales factor, there were basically winners and losers," Burdick said. "If people could pick and choose which policy they wanted, that would obviously put a pretty big dent in our corporate revenue."
State officials maintain that Oregon's single-sales factor is binding, but they were spooked when the California Court of Appeal sided against the state in a similar case last year. A Michigan court found differently, however, siding with the state. There's no way to know for sure which way Oregon's court will rule.

Margot Robbie was at the red carpet for the 2014 Met Gala on Monday (May 5) in New York City.
The 'Wolf of Wall Street' star wore a Prada custom designed powder blue silk organza tee-length dress. The transparent top, which overlays a satin bralette, featured a high ruffle neckline and geometric mirror embroidery. The skirt is enriched with large black plexi plates.
She complemented the look with grey satin ankle strap pumps and a black satin clutch with a jeweled closure, all by Prada.
Robbie styled her brunette hair in a sleek updo and as always, her makeup was flawless.
Now, obviously she took a fashion risk. And I will say that if you're going to take a fashion risk, you take it with Prada. But no, I just can't get myself to make sense of that dress. Sorry!

I would love them for the squeaky sound they make as the child walks. Granted, they could send some parents over the edge with the constant "squeak" of the shoe, but if you are out shopping, at a playground or anywhere a child is not easy to watch, these squeaker shoes make life easier.

text: Finding Storage in San Antonio, TX Are you in need of self storage in San Antonio, TX? Storage.com can help you out! Whether you're looking to clear some clutter in your home or just need somewhere to keep your belongings while you're in the middle of a move, Storage.com will help you find the storage solution for your situation. Not only can you find nearby facilities with Storage.com, but you can also compare prices, unit sizes, and special features side by side, as well as reserve a unit directly on the website. We want you to have a great storage seeking experience with no hassle. Getting the Best San Antonio Storage Unit for Your Needs Knowing what you intend to store in your San Antonio storage unit is half the battle when trying to determine the right unit size for your items. If you plan to store smaller items—like sporting equipment, seasonal decorations, a lawn mower, boxes, or small furniture—you won't need a huge unit. That is, of course, unless you intend to add more storage items in the future. A 5x5 or 5x10 is a good place to start for smaller storage needs. When it comes to storing larger items—like a car, boat, RV, or an entire house's worth of furniture and belongings—you'll want something much bigger. Start with a 10x20 and go up from there. If you're unsure of what unit size you need for your items, take a look at Storage.com's interactive size guide, where you can see helpful illustrations of what each unit size can hold. You can also call in to speak with one of our storage representatives, who would be happy to help you with any questions about what size you may need. What Affects Storage Unit Rental Prices in San Antonio? San Antonio mini storage prices start as low as $29 a month, which may be more affordable than you previously thought. However, prices are dictated by a variety of factors, including: Location: Just like any form of real estate, location plays a big role in the price a storage unit. Usually, more convenient facility locations, like those in the 78205 zip code in Downtown San Antonio, are going to have higher rates. Being located near top attractions like The Alamo, The Riverwalk, and the rest of downtown makes higher rental rates, too. It's important to balance your need for convenience with the price you're willing to pay when looking for an affordable storage unit. Storage Unit Size: The larger the space you need, the more you're going to have to pay. As with homes and hotel rooms, size equals money. Don't get a storage unit that's larger than your needs (unless, of course, you intend to add more items to your unit later). Otherwise, you'll be spending money on space you don't use. Storage Features: The storage industry has adapted to include features that help storage consumers and improve their storage experience. Features like climate control, advanced security, and drive-up access are all meant to make storage more enjoyable and convenient. But units with these features are going to cost more than a basic storage unit. Whether you're in the market for a small storage unit temporarily or are looking for long-term storage, you can find San Antonio storage facilities and units that best fit your budget with Storage.com. When searching for units, make sure to take advantage of Storage.com's advanced search filter. There, you can set your price range so you only see facilities offering units that are within your budget. You can then compare rates side by side, making it easier than ever to find the most affordable storage solution. Short-Term Leasing Agreements Are you in the process of moving or remodeling your home and need somewhere to keep your belongings? Are you a college student at University of Texas-San Antonio, Trinity University, Our Lady of the Lake University, or St. Mary's University who needs somewhere to stash dorm furniture over the summer break? If so, you could benefit from temporary self storage. Some San Antonio self storage facilities offer month-to-month leasing agreements, which are perfect for people who only need storage on a short-term basis. Rather than getting trapped in a long-term contract that you don't need, short-term renters benefit from being able to choose when they need storage and when they're ready to move out. Self Storage for San Antonio Businesses San Antonio is home to six Fortune 500 companies, including Valero Energy Corporation, and has a booming economy. Outside of the Fortune 500, other companies like Nationwide, Kohl's, Allstate, and Toyota call San Antonio home. But it's not all big business in San Antonio. Many mid-sized businesses and local startups call the city home due in large part to its No. 16 ranking on Forbes' list of Best Places for Business and Careers. With so many businesses operating in San Antonio, space can be an important commodity. This is especially true for startups that are growing faster than they can keep up with. Businesses can utilize self storage in San Antonio for additional space in their operations. Depending on their needs, a storage unit can be used for equipment, inventory, office supplies, or storing files. With features like 24-hour access, advanced security, and drive-up access, self storage can be the perfect way to expand your business operations. Storage Amenities You May Want in San Antonio Storage amenities are meant to make storing items easier for everyone. A few of the great amenities available at many San Antonio self storage facilities include: Climate-Controlled Storage:San Antonio storage seekers often opt for climate-controlled storage when storing sensitive items like electronics, firearms, photos, antiques, wine collections, musical instruments, and more. Climate control allows storage renters to keep their units at safe temperature and humidity levels so the high temperatures and humidity in San Antonio won't damage their items. Security Features:Some facilities offer security features like video surveillance, alarmed units, gated access, and on-site management. For people storing valuable items or vehicles, this level of security provides peace of mind, as it wards of potential vandals or thieves. 24-Hour Access:If you like having the freedom of accessing your storage locker at any time of the day or night, then you'll want a facility that offers 24-hour access. With these business hours, you don't have to worry about making it to your storage unit after work or fitting a stop into your busy weekend schedule. No matter what your storage needs are, Storage.com is here to help you find the best facility and unit possible. If you've found a unit, you can reserve it directly on our site or by calling in to speak with a representative. 5 Great San Antonio Neighborhoods for the Family Looking to move the family to San Antonio?

Vintage Lace Scarf
Added Dec 8, 2011
by froggypondd
Hamilton, New Ze...
A Christmas present for a friend of mine. It ended up being very time consuming as hand sewing all the tassels took ages but it was worth it in the end.
All my white wool was too bright in comparison with the lace so I used some felting wool but it was dyed different colours so I used all the cream, then had to unravel the ball to find more of the cream.
The material was left over from a project of my mum's. I left the selvage edge unfinished because I liked the way it was slightly frayed.
Material Notes
Purple polyester, cream wool, vintage lace.

In third-person mode, the player can rummage around the pit area eyeing out competitor's cars, stop by at a bar for the latest gossip, fix and tune his car and interact with the other in-game characters, carrying out short missions related to the story behind the player's character.
What further enhances Flat-Out is not only the new level of graphical quality and convincing physics, but the overall interactivity of the world around the player. The player can crash sideways into a safety wall made of tyres, sending dozens and dozens of tyres flying and bouncing away. Wooden fences shatter and splinter into hundreds of pieces, barrels and marker cones tumble and fly from the impact, debris from opponent cars lay on the track inflicting damage to other cars and so forth.
The game has a remarkably impressive graphics engine especially optimised for racing games. It is based on the Rally Trophy engine which has been developed and optimised further with giant leaps. The Rally Trophy engine received a huge amount of praise from gamers and gaming publications. The graphics are highly immersive, with bucketfuls of sand spewing from underneath the car's tyres, thick billowing clouds of dust whenever someone attempts to dig a hole in the ground with his car, sparks flying off exhaust pipes scraping the tarmac... The list goes on and on. All this looks nice on paper, but it also transforms into immersive and believable environments.
Damage modelling of the cars is impressive, with virtually every body panel of the car bending, crumbling and peeling away in accidents showing the engine, transmission, working suspension, cockpit with driver and everything you'd expect a car to have beneath it's skin. The player can lose his door, only to crash into the trees from driving straight into it at over 200km/h on the next lap.
The cars themselves, being the highlight of the whole show, are meticulously modelled with plenty of detail. The player has 16 cars to choose from, all with different behaviour, driving feel and ability to take (or give) abuse if your dear opponent ahead of you just won't give you room to pass.
- First-ever racing game with a 3rd person mode, where the character can repair his car, walk around the pit area and interact with other characters.
- Captivating character-driven story bringing new depth to the career mode and driving games.
- Fast-paced and adrenaline filled racing experience. Races consist of 8 banged up and rusty cars battling it out without mercy on varying racetracks.
- Accurate feel in the vehicle dynamics, giving enough feel of presence even to the most dedicated racing enthusiast.
Realistic and extensive damage modelling, affecting both visuals and vehicle dynamics, separately damaging different parts of the car.
- Cutting-edge technology optimised for racing games. Game graphics will be of previously unseen realism on game consoles and the PC.
- 45 varying and different racecourses, from sandy and hilly courses with plenty of jumps to ice courses on frozen lakes, along with asphalt racetracks and tracks with combinations of asphalt and dirt.
- 16 different cheap and rusty, banged-up car models.
- Garage. Player can buy new parts to his car or purchase entirely new car.
- Multiplayer racing in various game modes, utilising both linked and split-screen multiplayer modes as well as XBox Live for internet multiplaying
- Advanced AI that makes mistakes and learns from them, developing its skills during the season.

Future Earth's Knowledge-Action Networks, alongside our projects, are the prime mechanism for delivering our research strategy. They are the essential links to our key focal challenges .
Knowledge-Action Networks are collaborative frameworks that facilitate highly integrative sustainability research. Their aim is to generate the multifaceted knowledge needed to inform solutions for complex societal issues.
How to get involved in Knowledge-Action Networks
Knowledge-Action Networks build on the broad range and diversity of specialist expertise represented in the large community of researchers and practitioners associated with Future Earth, e.g. in
Research Projects
OluKai Holokai Shoe Mens Clay / Clay Y133bZ
, and endorsed and associated organisations, projects, and individuals that are part of the Future Earth Open Network.
The objectives of the Knowledge-Action Networks are to:
Contributions to Knowledge-Action Networks are on a voluntary basis through members, projects or groups with the appropriate expertise and an interest in putting their expertise into the broader context of sustainability research addressed by Future Earth.
What is the scope of the Knowledge-Action Networks?
Knowledge-Action Networks foster collaboration across disciplinary backgrounds on some of today's most pressing global environmental challenges. Knowledge-Action Networks focus on key societal challenges as outlined in the
Kenneth Cole REACTION Mens Settle Oxford Brown dWTpxzXeO
, as well as cross-cutting topics.
We are now launching and developing Knowledge-Action Networks on the following topics:
Further Knowledge-Action Networks will be developed and launched to complement this first set.
Why has Future Earth decided to build Knowledge-Action Networks?
The Future Earth 2025 Vision identifies eight major societal challenges to sustainability. It also emphasises how greater interactions among disciplines and between research and societal partners, in both public and private sectors and civil society, can improve the role of research to identify solutions for societal challenges.
Knowledge-Action Networks aim to facilitate this by creating frameworks for applying these approaches both to research and to related activities that encourage engagement between diverse partners in addressing these challenges. These dynamic networks will be innovative: aiming to identify and fill knowledge gaps that are defined collaboratively by broad communities of experts within and outside of academia.
Consistent with Future Earth's slogan "research for global sustainability," the main function of Knowledge-Action Networks is to generate high-quality actionable scientific knowledge through the integration of research and the involvement of societal partners, following the Engagement Guidelines of Future Earth.
How will Knowledge-Action Networks work?
Knowledge-Action Networks aim to generate knowledge by pulling from many areas of both academia and society. They involve fundamental research, integration of natural and social sciences and humanities, co-designed research questions with users, co-produced outcomes, and broader engagement activities through state-of-the-art communications, dialogues and involvement at policy interfaces. The co-design process ensures that the Knowledge-Action Networks deliver the knowledge that society needs.
Knowledge-Action Networks build on the large and diverse specialist expertise represented in the Future Earth community, in particular concerning
Global Research Projects
UV SIGNATURE G61069133 Mens Lace Up Cap Toe Oxford Dress Shoes Run Big Black quLpHdGZ37
, Blowfish Womens Board KneeHigh Leather Boot Whiskey Texas/ Dyecut Pu hVruoLg
and the Future Earth Open Network .
They are led and managed by a steering group, with the support of designated representatives of the Future Earth Secretariat.
In the early stages, the Future Earth Secretariat will support Knowledge-Action Network teams to obtain seed funding to support co-design processes through virtual and physical co-design workshops. Later on, the bulk of the required additional funds will be leveraged from external sources, such as public-sector funds and private foundations.
How to get involved in Future Earth Knowledge-Action Networks?
Knowledge-Action Networks are set up to be open and inclusive. Any interested researcher or societal partner is welcome to
get in touch
with the respective contact of the specific Knowledge-Action Network or to

First, take a look at the new Print Party room. It is getting very close to completion. Everyone has been working hard on getting the new table up in addition to the beautiful new ceiling and lighting.
For this room, we just need to lay the Japanese tatami flooring and finish up the table for the break corner. That table will house the drinks and snacks for our Print Party participants. The customers get to eat and take a short break while staff prepare the last block.
The browser bins are temporarily in the Print Party room, as you can see on the right. These shelves will be the new home for the majority of our prints in the shop after we relocate them into the main room.
Speaking of the main room, take a look at the beautiful new shop counter with LED lighting, and gorgeous wooden paneling. This place is getting more and more attractive each day.
The new shop is coming together very nicely. David Bull may best be known for his woodblock carving, but he's also skilled at working with power tools. Here he is using a router (not the wi-fi kind!) to prepare wood for the aforementioned Print Party break area table.
The first floor shop is really coming along, but one thing in this room is still missing—the flooring! The plan is to lay it down in the next few days, and then do the finishing touches and arrangements around the shop. Then we will move everything downstairs, and we hope to be operating in the new shop in the next few weeks. We're getting excited, and we look forward to seeing you in our new space!

Regular watchers of our Twitch stream knew this was happening, because they saw the printing happening last Monday:
They didn't see the next step, which was to pass the woodblock-printed sheets over to Cameron, who ran them through our new ink-jet printer to pick up the background of the certificate image ...
I then took the finished certificates back to my desk, and on yesterday's stream did the signing, numbering and dating of each one ...
And here they are (were ...)
That stack has now been packed safely into strong envelopes, and they are on the way!
Thank you again to all the supporters who have taken part in the Patreon over the past year ... it has helped !

By Yelp's own admission, they have filtered out 25% of all reviews. They say that they don't weigh negative reviews or positive reviews higher, but the jury is out on that one. It does seem to be geared toward hiding more positive than negative reviews. Without a much larger sample size, we have no way to prove that at this point.
Several class action law suits have failed to win against yelp since they cannot prove that Yelp is manually changing reviews in exchange for advertising revenue. That doesn't mean it's not true, it just means no one has been able to prove it.
In our experience, reviewers who are local, have established profiles with other reviews of businesses in the same area and talk about a realistic experience do seem to get posted more often.
However, this does not mean fake reviews don't get left up. It happens ALL THE TIME. There are very few TOS violations you can use to try to have them removed. Illegal actions, full names (first names don't count anymore) or attacking employees or owners based on race, sex or other biases can be all grounds for TOS removal.
That said, asking happy customers to review you online consistently can have an effect on your reviews. Be wary of having them do it "in store" as they could be on your wifi and make it seem like people are using a "review station" which will get them flagged. Getting a consistent flow of positive reviews will galvanize your reputation against the negative ones.
If you are having an issue with fake reviews, I suggest that you flag them and have others do the same. This may encourage Yelp to remove them, but it doesn't guarantee it.
Matt, do you have any source or any other info about the full name of the employee for TOS removal? I think that seems unfair and I don't think minimum wage employees should be vulnerable to this type of infamy. Thank you so much for your post and for working through the comments section.
Finally found something useful to read and implement after hours of searching. I am really frustrated with the fake reviews posted by my competitor next door (I know it because he told me so) and that is why I had to consult an ORM company to work in the same direction. Their work was undoubtedly satisfactory and they are looking for suppressing more in future. But these easy to follow steps have nailed it, so I would do it on my own from now onwards. The ORM company may look into other matters, but I will take this matter in my own hands.
Glad we could help. Sorry for the late reply, we had an issue with our comment spam blocker, but it's fixed now! We are working on a book called Help with Yelp right now also.

Higher-ed Spending Surely Pays Dividends
Source: Fort Myers News
If ever there was a public policy fiscal dilemma, it is in the here and now involving higher education in Florida.
A downward sliding economy, brought on by the bursting real estate bubble, is threatening to cut the state's tax revenues well below the comfort level for the people who are charged with bringing the taxpayers the governmental services they have come to expect.
So cuts are in order, and with that we have no argument. Clearly, there are economies to be made, services to be examined and hard decisions to be made.
But, curiously, Gov. Charlie Crist has turned aside any talk of tuition increases, even though Florida tuitions are well below national norms, and is now proposing penetrating cuts in the level of public spending on our colleges and universities.
"It seems we have a governor who wants to protect K-12, but is willing to throw higher education under the bus," said Florida Chancellor of Higher Education Mark Rosenberg.
Indeed, Crist has proposed $272 million in proposed higher education cuts, double the rate of the rest of the budget. It is seriously concerning.
As the Southwest Floridians point with pride to the glowing and growing successes of Edison College and Florida Gulf Coast University, we ought to realize how much institutions of higher learning add to our community. They give us economic, cultural and intellectual underpinnings, are magnets for both those who would learn and those who would seek to further their futures and fortunes, are the glue that holds young people close to home in the years when they are wont to wander, and raise the level of expectations of us all.
Even though the economists will measure the worth of educational institutions in lofty numbers, their value reaches beyond even what they can calculate and we can imagine.
Higher education, in short, gives us a future.
Legislative action and political opportunism that rob us of that future are a crime against our very society. We must find ways to pay for higher education, combining the use of both public monies and reasonable tuitions. Or suffer mightily.

Watch For How The Fed Quantifies Its Policy Meeting Participants
We're still about 80 minutes away from the release of the minutes from the Fed's July policy committee meeting, which everyone will be parsing for any new hints of when the dreaded taper might commence.
While analyzing the latest minutes, pay close attention to the words the Fed uses to group the 19 meeting participants - the 7 members of the Board of Governors and the presidents of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks - into various blocs of agreement and disagreement. Here's a sample paragraph from the previous Fed minutes, or more specifically from the summary of economic projections issued in tandem with the minutes (emphasis mine):
Participants also described their views regarding the appropriate path of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet. Given their respective economic outlooks, all participants but one judged that it would be appropriate to continue purchasing both agency MBS and longer-term Treasury securities. About half of these participants indicated that it likely would be appropriate to end asset purchases late this year. Many other participants anticipated that it likely would be appropriate to continue purchases into 2014. Several participants emphasized that the asset purchase program was effective in supporting the economic expansion, that the benefits continued to exceed the costs, or that continuing purchases would be necessary to achieve a substantial improvement in the outlook for the labor market. A few participants, however, indicated that the Committee could best foster its dual objectives and limit the potential costs of the program by slowing, or stopping, its purchases at the June meeting.
In financial journalism, you're taught pretty early on that specific numbers are a lot more accurate and useful than subjective quantifiers. The Fed, for all its efforts at transparency, does not seem to appreciate this. The above paragraph, along with several other similar ones in the minutes, succeeded at flummoxing markets about exactly how many people within the Fed were in favor of doing exactly what exactly when, creating further confusion instead of clarifying matters when all anyone cares about is when the Fed will start tapering its $85 billion monthly bond buys.
This time markets are hoping for some more specificity from the Fed, with its September policy committee meeting looming and consensus expectations that some form of tapering will commence then. Hopefully the Fed can deliver a clearer, more specific recap of its meeting this time around.

Social scientists often peg January and February as two of the ho-hum-iest months of the year, but many of us can back that up. Perhaps we're still paying off those holiday purchases and trips, or the shorter days and chillier temps have us meowing.
Which is why it is imperative that things like the Rose Parade and Valentine's Day and World Sword Swallower's Day show up in the winter. Surely you've heard of the last event? Where people with a knack for opening wide before a notably lengthy blade gather to impress, astound, and perhaps make the occasional viewer recoil?
It's hard not to, but, of course, most viewers aren't trained in this ancient art. Which means that the wide-of-crowds'll be out in full, "how'd-they-do-that?" force at Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hollywood when a brigade of professional swallowers of swords gather for for World Sword Swallower's Day.
Date is Saturday, Feb. 22. Memorize the "22" in that, because at 2:22:14 p.m. is when the simultaneous swallow goes down. Way, way down.
2:22.14, of course, is the date. Catchy.
While being absolutely respectful of the practioners of this not-easy art, might we pause here to give a hearty "oof" or a wincing "urgh"? How many performances inspire such dramatic reactions from a crowd? Not many in these days of aloof, behind-the-screen enjoyment.
It's free to watch, in the lobby of Ripley's.
And lest you say life has gotten ho-hum, remember the magic of vaudeville and showmanship is still alive and impressing viewers, viewers who may, on occasion, go "oof" at the sight of a sword inside somebody.
It's a pretty oof-worthy thing in our managed and vetted age of entertainment.

A 'Losing Prospect' Argument for Changing Sanitation Behaviour |
- Source/complete article & references: Nidi Khurana, End Poverty in South Asia – Jan 15, 2014.
- Fact #1: One in six people still defecate in the open.
- Fact #2: Most of them are not entirely convinced that a toilet does any good.
- Fact #3: Many of the recent toilet adopters still like to go in the open.
I don't mean to be alarmist, but these signal a need for a shift in thinking about the complex problem of addressing behaviour change with respect to toilet adoption.
With a myriad missing links to sustainable sanitation uptake, I'll stick my neck out and say that the stickiest issue in sanitation today is not one of lack of investment, nor political commitment or markets. Clearly, the governments understand the wide-ranging impacts of sanitation on health, environment, and economy, and have committed billions of dollars to increasing sanitation coverage. Recently, the Government of India quadrupled its investment in rural sanitation in the current planning period (2012 – 2017) to US$ 6 billion through its ambitious Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan program. Moreover, there seems to be robust enthusiasm in the private sector for the 'ready for take-off'sanitation market in low-and-middle income countries with low coverage. The continually baffling dilemma is in some ways an age-old one – that of changing mindsets.

BEIJING (AP) — Chinese authorities have launched an investigation into a powerful economic planning official accused by a prominent journalist of corruption, the latest high-level target of the new leadership's anti-graft drive.
The ruling Communist Party's disciplinary agency said in a one-sentence statement on its website that Liu Tienan, deputy head of the Cabinet's National Development and Reform Commission, is being investigated for "suspected serious disciplinary violations."
The statement by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection on Sunday did not provide further details. But the investigation is being seen by Chinese state media as the party's response to corruption allegations against Liu made by Luo Changping, deputy editor-in-chief of the respected Caijing magazine.
Luo said in posts on his Twitter-like microblog in December that Liu had shady ties with a businessman, was involved in large, problematic bank loans and fabricated his academic qualifications.
Luo reportedly first obtained information on Liu's alleged wrongdoings from the official's former mistress, who lives in Japan and accused Liu of issuing death threats against her after their relationship ended.
Liu, 58, wields significant power in his position as deputy chief of the planning agency in charge of steering the world's second-largest economy. Liu also had been director of the National Energy Administration, which carried out the country's energy policy, until he was replaced in March.
The brief official statement on Liu does not mention the official's current status, but officials under investigation by the party's anti-graft agency are typically taken in for questioning and held in some form of detention.
A man who answered the phone at the National Development and Reform Commission's press office referred queries to the foreign affairs department, where a man who answered the phone said he had "no idea" about the case.
Luo did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but said Monday in a public post on his microblog that he spent a year verifying and corroborating the claims made against Liu and that he had more than one source of information.
In announcing the investigation into Liu, the party did not address Luo's specific allegations against the official. The National Energy Administration's press office initially had dismissed Luo's allegations as "pure slander."
The Communist Party newspaper People's Daily criticized the energy agency's defense of Luo, saying in a post on its official microblog: "the spokesman holds a public office, how did he sink to the level of being a 'house slave,' endorsing an individual?"
China's new leadership under Communist Party chief Xi Jinping has vowed to root out the widespread graft that has disgusted the public and undermined the party's legitimacy.
Liu is the latest high-level official to be investigated for corruption since Xi took power. In December, a deputy party secretary of Sichuan province was removed from his post following state media reports that he was suspected in influence-peddling and questionable real estate deals.
In a separate case, state media reported that a former party secretary of a district in the megacity of Chongqing has been officially indicted by prosecutors on charges of accepting bribes. Lei Zhengfu has been at the center of a sex tape scandal in which officials allegedly were extorted by real estate developers after being secretly filmed in liaisons with hired women.

Trolling around [again]
found these details re :- Bit Torrent
BitTorrent, the beloved file-sharing client and protocol that provides a way around bandwidth bottlenecks, has become the newest distribution vehicle for adware/spyware bundles."This is the marketing campaign to end all marketing campaigns," said Boyd, the Microsoft Security MVP (most valuable professional) known throughout the security industry by the "Paperghost" moniker.Is this the end of Bit Torrent ?Boyd said he got the first inkling that BitTorrent was a major adware distribution vehicle while searching for the source of Direct Revenue's Aurora, an adware program that includes the prevalent "nail.exe" component. Sifting through mountains of HijackThis logs posted on security forums, Boyd said the answer was staring him in the face. (HijackThis is a popular freeware spyware removal tool that keeps detailed logs of Windows PC scans).
In the logs, he found that "nail.exe" and "aurora.exe" were always listed alongside "btdownloadgui.exe," the user interface that downloads/uploads when using BitTorrent.
"I checked hundreds of those logs, and more often than not, [btdownloadgui.exe] was chugging away in the background. No wonder none of the victims (or spyware experts) seemed to know what site Aurora was coming fromthere was no site. It would have never occurred to the end users that it could have crept in by another means altogether," he said.
link to comments on this
Anybody who has any sensitivity to security could tell you BitTorrent is inherently insecure. Besides most of the traffic is illicit even though RCIAA and MPA haven't figured out how to deal with it. My suggestion is if you don't want to get sued stay away, or don't if you want to be a knucklehead.
And in there, found the link to just WHY Kazaa is SO well loved
Computer Associates International Inc. has launched a list of the worst spyware threats as part of a new program to combat unwanted software "pests." At the top of that list: the peer-to-peer application Kazaa.Doesn't look good until you see GAMESPY Arcade !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Kazaa has a high "clot factor" of 50, a measurement of how many registry entries, files and directories an application adds. The higher the clot factor, the more difficult a pest is to remove.
The highest clot factor in the top five is GameSpy Arcade, at 128

If You Think The Cost Of 'Piracy' Is High, What About The Cost Of Enforcement?
from the why-is-that-always-missing-from-the-equation? dept
To illustrate, let's imagine television show that initially streams online for free with advertising, garnering a million viewers per episode and earning $1 per viewer in ad revenues, for a total of $1 million. A small number who really dislike ads, or have connections too slow for streaming, let's say 5,000, download pirate copies anyway—but the vast majority watch legally. After building an audience and generating some good word of mouth, the accountants suggest that it might be more profitable to stop the free streaming and instead sell ad-free episodes for $4, in hopes that enough dedicated fans will pony up to compensate for the predictable drop in viewership once the program is no longer free to watch. The paying audience does indeed drop to 255,000, which still leaves the company slightly better off for the switch, but 100,000 viewers decide to keep up with the show (at least initially) by downloading pirated copies. A subsequent price hike to $10, however, turns out to be a money loser. Now the show has only 80,000 paying viewers, while 150,000 are engaged in piracy.But it goes further than that, which is that when you factor in the cost of enforcement, the equation changes somewhat:
Undoubtedly that piracy is costing the show's producers something: If piracy were impossible, some unknown fraction of those who download illegally would be willing to pay the asking price. But just crudely using the actual market price at each stage—even if modified by some constant "displacement rate" to acknowledge that not every illicit download represents a lost sale at that price—yields some perverse results. As the pricing strategy for the show changes, the "cost" of piracy rises from $5,000 to $400,000 (even as revenue rises) to $1.5 million (while revenues drop by $20,000). Obviously, something is wrong here.
It's no great mystery what: The problem is that the rate of piracy, the price of a digital good, and the "displacement rate" (the percentage of the pirates who'd buy at that price in a world of perfect copyright enforcement) are not independent variables. And, of course, the interdependency runs both ways: Pricing decisions are influenced by the knowledge that we don't live in a world of perfect enforcement, and you can tell plausible stories according to which this might keep prices higher or lower than they'd be under perfect enforcement, depending on your assumptions about the conditions under which a particular audience will substitute the pirate for the legal good.
Returning to our imaginary program, suppose that under perfect enforcement—a zero piracy world—there would be 110,000 paying viewers at $10 per episode, netting the creators an additional $80,000 over what they'd make with their revenue maximizing strategy ($4 per episode) in the world of imperfect enforcement. That's great for them, if not for consumers, but we haven't factored in the costs of enforcement. Some of these are likely to be borne by the creators themselves—hiring lawyers to hunt down pirate copies circulating online and the like—but in practice they're often shifted to taxpayers, in the form of direct enforcement expenditures, or to other parts of the economy, in the form of DMCA compliance costs or innovative services that are deterred entirely. It's possible that, in this hypothetical scenario, the revenue maximizing strategy for the producers is to charge $10 while externalizing the costs of perfect enforcement, but the socially efficient outcome is to accept imperfect enforcement and let the producers revenue maximize against that background at a $4 price point.As Sanchez admits, many of these numbers are theoretical, just for the sake of the thought exercise. But what we know in reality is that the cost of enforcement -- whether direct or through externalities -- almost never enters into the discussion in any meaningful way, even though it's absolutely there.
What's amazing is that even when the costs are explicit, they barely enter the conversation. Take, for example, the predecessor to SOPA/PIPA: the ProIP Act, which passed in 2008. A report by the Congressional Budget Office showed that the cost of this bill, which is almost entirely focused on increased enforcement was $435 million. Yes, you read that right. Taxpayers have been on the hook for nearly half a billion dollars for the increased enforcement initiatives -- like the spectacular flop known as Operation In Our Sites. Is this really a wise use of taxpayer resources?
Add to that, of course, the negative externalities created by such enforcement -- such as the chilling effects of increased censorship, expensive court cases and other such efforts, and it's kind of amazing that these costs never seem to even enter the public debate, even though many of them are a lot more real than the "costs" presented by the industry for "piracy."

Trayvon Martin was killed by a neighborhood watch captain and demands for justice are getting louder.
For the second time in the day, hundreds gathered in the Loop to denounce the killing of Martin.
"It has gone on too many times, too many years now you know this has come to a head and it is time for us all to speak out not just black people but everybody," said Ed Davis.
Chicago's Bradbury family joined the chorus demanding justice for the slain 17-year-old Floridian.
"Nowadays, people are just getting shot and for like no apparent reason nobody has a grudge against anyone or anything," said 13-year-old Quinton Bradbury.
"I have lived in this country my whole life and I have been black just as long and I gotta tell you, sometimes things just don't change," said Sherri Bradbury. "You hope they do but you know for my son's sake I hope so."
In South Florida, students from 48 schools donned hoodies and walked out of class to protest the lack of an arrest in the case. The NBA's Miami Heat donned a similar pose, as did staffers on Capitol Hill.
Twenty-eight-year-old George Zimmerman pulled the trigger on Martin last month when the youngster was walking home from a convenience store. Zimmerman has not been charged due to Florida's Stand Your Ground Law, which makes it difficult to arrest and prosecute homicide suspects who claim self defense.
Even President Obama is weighing in on the controversy surrounding the investigation of Trayvon Martin's death.
''If I had son, he'd look like Trayvon,'' President Barack Obama said Friday as public outrage over the handling of an investigation into the shooting death of the Florida teenager grows. "I think (his parents) are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness that it deserves."
Martin, 17, was shot to death by a neighborhood watch leader in suburban Orlando where he lived last month. His family and civil rights activists believe the unarmed teenager was shot because he was black.
His admitted shooter, George Zimmerman, 28, has not been charged. The outrage of the handling of this case -- and the lack of charges -- has led to vigils across the nation -- including in Chicago, where a march was planned for Friday afternoon at Millennium Park.
There were students -- some the same age and younger than Trayvon Martin -- and there were graying veterans of the civil rights movement who came out because, as they said, Martin could be our son or grandson.
Over 200 people joined this march-- different ages, different life experience, but their bond is their outrage over the death of Martin. Many of the marchers Friday symbolically carried cans of iced tea and packages of candy, the same things that the Florida teen had with him when he was shot and killed last month.
Over many years there have been many shootings of young Black men throughout the United States but here in Chicago many people who are protesting say this time it is different, especially after the President made such personal comments about the tragedy in Florida.
"I am here because I am incredibly disheartened at the way black life is treated here in America, not just Trayvon Martin," said Jose Olivarez.
The marchers plan to get together again as part of a national million hoodie march. Zimmerman's lawyer says his client is cooperating with investigators.
"I know a lot of kids think that it can't happen to them," said Janeya Cunningham, "but I'm here, even if I am the only teenager, I really don't care, because a bullet doesn't have a name on it. It can be any kids, any day, and I think that the kids should take it more seriously, and it shouldn't just be the adults out here marching for their kids, but the kids too."
Among the marchers, there is anger with what happened in Florida, with the investigation that followed, and also demands that the Justice Department dig deep into the shooting, the man who pulled the trigger, the actions of local police and a Florida "Stand Your Ground Law" that has stirred controversy.
"We thought that we had arrived when we got Dr. King and he made way for us, so we just stopped marching," said Velma Henderson. "Now people do stuff to us and we just say, 'Oh, it ain't my problem, it ain't my son, it ain't my daughter.' But it's all our kids."
Though Trayvon Martin's death happened far away, the marchers wanted to make the point that that type of tragedy is not defined by geography."A small march, a small publicity is a snowball effect," said George Davis. "And a snowball won't grow unless it starts rolling, so I think these things continue to add up, and once you continue to build on them and build on them, it causes people to have a conversation. It causes the discussion the discussion that needs to happen."
Chicago Priest Michael Pfleger is also calling on churches to stand in solidarity with Martin's family on Sunday by placing a hoodie, skittles and iced tea -- objects Martin had with him -- on the altars.
The Justice Department and FBI are now investigating possible civil rights violations and a grand jury is considering charges. President Obama said Friday following a White House Rose Garden Ceremony he is "glad" about the Justice Department investigation and that the state of Florida has formed a task force to look into the case.
"This is a tragedy. I can only imagine what these parents are going through. And when I think about this boy, I think about my own kids. And I think every parent in America should be able to understand why it is absolutely imperative that we investigate every aspect of this, and that everybody pulls together -- federal, state and local -- to figure out exactly how this tragedy happened," President Obama said. "But my main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin. If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon. And I think they are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves, and that we're going to get to the bottom of exactly what happened."
Activists call for Zimmerman's arrest
At a rally in Sanford, Fla., on Thursday night, protesters including civil rights leader Al Sharpton called for Zimmerman to be prosecuted.
"We cannot allow a precedent when a man can just kill one of us ... and then walk out with the murder weapon," said Sharpton, flanked by Martin's parents and a stage full of supporters.
Police Chief Bill Lee said earlier in the day that he was stepping down temporarily to try to cool the building anger that his department did not arrest neighborhood watch volunteer Zimmerman, who has said he shot Martin on Feb. 26 in self-defense. Hours later, the governor announced that the local state attorney, Norman Wolfinger, had recused himself from the case.
Martin's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, believe Zimmerman should have been arrested. They claim he was profiling their son and acted like a vigilante. Zimmerman's father is white and his mother is Peruvian.
Tracy Martin told the thousands at the rally to keep his son in their minds.
"If Trayvon were here, he would have been here tonight," he said. "He was a people person. Let's get justice for your son."
The signs, chants and sentiments all came down to a demand for justice in the case. Another rally was set for the state capitol Friday and students at Martin's Miami high school planned to walk out in protest in the afternoon.
At Thursday's protest, some people carried signs that said: "100 years of lynching, justifiable homicide. Same thing." Others sold T-shirts that read: "Arrest Zimmerman."
"It's the norm around here, where anything involving black culture, they want to wipe their hands of it," said Shella Moore, who is black and grew up in Sanford.
The Justice Department and FBI have opened a civil rights investigation, and the local prosecutor before he quit the case convened a grand jury April 10 to determine whether to charge Zimmerman.
Martin was returning from a trip to a convenience store when Zimmerman started following him, telling police dispatchers he looked suspicious. At some point, the two got into a fight and Zimmerman pulled out his gun.
Zimmerman told police Martin attacked him after he had given up on chasing the teenager and was returning to his sport utility vehicle.
The shooting ignited resentment toward the police department in this Orlando suburb for not making an arrest. Civil rights groups have held rallies in Florida and New York, saying the shooting was unjustified. Of Sanford's 53,000 residents, 57 percent are white and 30 percent are black.
In a letter to Gov. Rick Scott, state attorney Wolfinger said that while he thought he could fairly oversee any prosecution that develops in the case, his recusal was aimed at "toning down the rhetoric and preserving the integrity of the investigation." Scott appointed Angela B. Corey, the state attorney for the Jacksonville area, to take over.
The chief's decision came less than a day after city commissioners gave him a "no confidence" vote and after a couple of weeks of protests and uproar on social media websites. Lee has said evidence supported Zimmerman's assertion that the shooting was in self-defense.
"I do this in the hopes of restoring some semblance of calm to a city which has been in turmoil for several weeks," Lee said.
The chief said he stood behind his agency's investigation.
"As a former homicide investigator, a career law enforcement officer and a father, I am keenly aware of the emotions associated with this tragic death of a child. I'm also aware that my role as a leader of this agency has become a distraction from the investigation," Lee said.
Martin's parents said the police chief's action wasn't enough, and that Zimmerman should be taken into custody.
"We want an arrest, we want a conviction and we want him sentenced for the murder of my son," Martin's father, Tracy, said to the fiery crowd of protesters at Fort Mellon Park.
It wasn't immediately clear how long the police chief would step aside. Some people said he should just quit.
"If they wanted to defuse a potential powder keg, he needed to resign," said pastor Eugene Walton, 58, who was born and raised in Sanford. "His inaction speaks loudly to the black community."
News of the police chief's decision to step aside spread quickly among the protesters, many of whom showed up more than two hours before the start of the rally. They chanted "The chief is gone. Zimmerman is next."
Dick Gregory, a comedian who uses humor to convey his civil rights message, said the steady pressure should be the goal going forward.
"All you have to do is be a turtle," he said. "Hard on the outside, soft on the inside and willing to stick your neck out."
