- FBI Warns Businesses That Email Fraud Is on the Rise: Is Your Crime Coverage Ready?
- December 19, 2013 | Author: Collin J. Hite
- Law Firm: Hirschler Fleischer A Professional Corporation - Richmond Office
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has issued a new warning as to an email scam aimed at U.S. businesses. The scam is so simple that it is hard to believe, but that is why it works. Worse yet, once the business loses its money, recouping it through a bank or insurance carrier can be extremely difficult.
The scam works through the criminal getting into the middle of your email traffic. The fraudster intercepts legitimate emails, and then creates a fake one that is nearly identical. In many instances the fake email is merely one letter changed or added to the legitimate address.
For instance, take the hypothetical email [email protected] is transformed by the fraudster to [email protected]. That extra "s" makes all the difference. No one notices the new (but fake) email in an exchange, and soon enough, the parties are communicating through the criminal that controls the email conversation by being in the middle of it. In short, the criminal becomes the hub of a conversation controlling all of the information between the legitimate parties to the transaction.
At some point, the fraudster issues instructions for payment, usually by wire transfer, and the funds go offshore and are long gone.
Do not be fooled by thinking this could not happen to you. Very sophisticated business people have been duped.
The FBI warning notes that either or both parties to a transaction can lose out in a man-in-the-email attack. Payment can be diverted to the criminal's account, or the goods could be diverted to a different delivery location. In other words, the buyer can pay and never receive the goods or the seller can ship the goods and never receive payment. While the FBI's alert is based on the scam targeting Seattle companies, this author is aware of three instances in Virginia this year.
This scam works very well in real estate transactions and international sales of merchandise or goods. In these types of transactions, the parties are usually in a hurry to complete the sale and there is a built-in level of trust. Down payments on commercial or high net worth residential property is stolen at the closing when the criminals get the funds diverted. In international sales, the wire transfer for payment is similarly misdirected.
The FBI provides some tips to help prevent being a victim of a "man in the middle" scam.
First, all businesses should use secure email. Web-based email from free accounts is a very bad idea when conducting business. Those email systems are easily hacked or infiltrated. Better yet, use email that is encrypted when conducting business.
Second, businesses should develop verification procedures. If the wire transfer instructions come in by email, then they should be confirmed through a secondary procedure, such as a phone call between agreed upon contacts who will recognize each other on the call.
Do not use the "reply" button. This is what the criminal is counting on because he is in the loop and can control the conversation.
In particular, it is very difficult to pick-up on the fake email address on smartphones and Blackberry devices. The better practice, according to the FBI, is to forward the email to the contact and type in the address or insert it from your contact list.
Finally, be very suspicious. If the standard instructions for payment suddenly change verify using a different method than email. If the payment is going to an account or location that does not make sense to the transaction, be careful. In some instances, these criminals make the payment to an account at a well-known U.S. financial institution. However, they quickly transfer the funds a second time offshore.
For example, if you are buying product from a Brazilian company, why are you suddenly being asked to wire the payment to a bank in Columbia? Or, if you are buying a million dollar home in Arizona, why are you being requested to transfer the funds to South Florida? Red flags are everywhere and verification is critical to prevent being a victim of this scam.
Once the funds go offshore it can be extremely difficult to claw back the money from the foreign banks. The more time that passes, the harder the process becomes for the issuing bank to retrieve your money. Moreover, banks are surprisingly secretive with the process and do not appear to cooperate with each other in this process.
If you think a crime insurance policy will save the day in these instances think again. The potential for coverage is there, but it is not easy since coverage is very dependent on the facts of each scam and how it is perpetrated.
Crime policies do provide what initially looks like an impressive scope of coverage: a) employee theft; b) forgery or alteration; c) theft from your premises; d) theft while your money is in transit; e) fake money orders and counterfeit money; f) computer crime; g) funds transfer fraud; and h) personal account protection.
But as with any contract, the devil is in the details. Most of these coverage terms are specifically defined in the policy. The definitions can specify the type of fraud, the required location of the crime, and who must be involved in the scam or crime in order for coverage to exist.
There are additional items to also watch for in crime coverage. These policies may carry sub-limits for certain aspects of losses that are below the general policy limits. These sub-limits can significantly reduce available policy limits when applied to the particular loss.
Crime policies are "claims-made" policies, which means that the loss generally must be reported within the policy period. Insureds cannot let themselves distracted by trying to claw back the funds and secure their operational systems to the detriment of filing a claim with their insurer, which is especially true as the end of the policy period approaches.
If a company is a victim of repeated fraudulent transfers within a short span of time, it is possible these losses will be treated as related. In that case, the company may find itself limited to a single policy limit for one claim. This can be highly problematic for an insured.
For example, let's say that a policy provides $500,000 of coverage for a single loss. In one month, before the controller can sniff out the scam when reconciling the books, your company is hit with three instances of fraud where funds are stolen through a man-in-the-middle email scam totaling $1.5 million. If the insurer is able to deem these losses related, then the potential coverage is capped at $500,000.
Many an insured has come to this realization when it is too late. It is critical to analyze the coverage needs in terms of appropriate policy limits. Underinsured companies remain a huge problem in the business world.
Finally, these policies typically contain numerous exclusions to coverage.
For example, Travelers Crime Policy has 28 separate exclusions to coverage. It is one thing to purchase a crime policy, but another to understand its terms and how it applies to a loss. Policyholders must be mindful of the scope of coverage in order to ensure they receive maximum coverage.
Combining crime and cyber coverage is critical in today's technology-based world of transactions. Policyholders must understand their risk and how each of these types of insurance can protect them from criminal activity. This is particularly true for companies that handle funds for clients, use wire transfers in their business, maintain sensitive customer data, and/or have large computer networks. The combination of a strong crime policy joined with cyber coverage can provide the best source of recovery on a criminal loss.
The best protection, however, will always be operational security and risk management in your business practices. Preventing the loss in the first place is always a winning strategy.

Livingstone on "A Common Word"
A couple weeks ago, we posted John Piper's thoughts on the Yale response to "A Common Word." A few days later, we posted some thoughts from Rick Love, one of the signatories of Yale's Christian response. Then last week, in the Q&A session of our pastors conference, we got a chance to hear from Greg Livingstone who also signed it.
You can listen to his answer or read the following (mildly edited) transcript:
Greg, can you address your signing of the Yale response to "A Common Word"? And maybe for those of us who are unfamiliar with it, you could give us a little background.
Greg Livingstone: Very quickly, 138 big names in Islam made an initiative called the Common Word and claimed that the common word between Christianity and Islam was the first two commandments: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself.
This was news to most of us, but when people have lived for years and years looking for an open door, there's always a temptation to run through one. And I've talked to John Piper, who pointed out that we were hasty and that there were implications and innuendos and issues involved that could, in fact, damage our testimony. I appreciate that.
I also am very aware that some of us are more called to defend the faith, and others are always looking for opportunity. Sometimes that opportunity grabs you before you think about asking for counsel. I'm sorry that my own mission is probably losing some donors over this.
But I'm not afraid to also rebuke the American Christian who sees Muslims as bigger sinners than we are. We've loved cannibals and they eat people. Muslims don't eat people. It's not halal; they're not allowed. And I don't think they're any more evil than the people in this room.
The idea of signing it was to get into the same room as these guys, and then, in the same room, to get one on one with them. There might be a Nicodemus among them, though most of them would be other kinds of Pharisees. But I'll talk to somebody even if his motives for wanting to talk to me might be suspect.
Should it have gone in the New York Times? Probably not. This may surprise you, but it's not my first mistake.

The Newtown massacre has generated so much proposed legislation — to expand the state's assault-weapons ban, make gun permit holders' names available publicly, reform the mental health system, and increase school security — that leaders of the General Assembly have decided they need to step in and direct traffic.
Tuesday morning they will announce the formation of a special bipartisan task force on gun violence prevention and children's safety. The task force will coordinate and expedite the handling of dozens of proposals for new laws as they work their way through legislative committees to final approval in both the House and the Senate.
A press conference is set for 11 a.m. in the Legislative Office Building in Hartford, featuring the four legislative caucuses' leaders: Senate President Pro Tempore Donald Williams, D-Brooklyn; Senate Minority Leader John McKinney, R-Fairfield; House Speaker Brendan Sharkey, D-Hamden; and House Minority Leader Lawrence Cafero, R-Norwalk.
Facing a crush of incoming bills, "the idea is not to waste effort or completely duplicate everything," said a top aide for one of the caucuses. No official pronouncements were coming out of the four partisan offices because they agreed not to make premature statements before Tuesday's announcement.
However, speaking on condition of anonymity, the aide said that it makes sense for lawmakers to plan in advance on the handling of bills on which several committees might feel a need to hold a public hearing — and, rather than each committee holding a separate hearing, there could be one hearing by members of the various panels. They can also iron out some difference in advance, rather than take up valuable time in debates on the House and Senate floors.
Sources said the task force will have working groups in three main areas: gun control, school safety, and mental health. One idea is that each of the four caucuses could put up to four members on each of the working groups, a source said.
Some of the legislative committees that would likely be involved in bills on those topics would be: appropriations, finance, children's, judiciary, public safety, public health, human service, higher education, education, and insurance.
Legislative leaders could have other motivations to form the task force — including simply to demonstrate that they are doing something and to put their stamp on any reforms that come out of the tragedy, said sources who have watched the General Assembly for years. They noted that the governor has already formed a task force to make post-Newtown reform recommendations by mid-March.
The sources also said the new task force also might be a control mechanism —that the leaders may want to assure that a particular reform proposal doesn't acquire a life of its own, gaining public sympathy and momentum, if they are unwilling to support it or lack confidence that they can pass it. In other words, they don't want to look like the bad guys who killed a popular proposal, the sources said.

The judges came by shortly after 9 am and asked us a few questions about the car. Then about 10 am they brought us the banner proclaiming us the Best Auto!!! The next challenge was what to do with the banner. I guess we didn't think about that in advance! None of us riding in the car really were prepared to walk the 2.7 mile parade route, so Ron borrowed some wire and hung the banner around the back end of the car. But we had to make sure that we didn't cover up our passengers, Erin and Nikki.
This car definitely attracts attention; I like talking about the Museum and telling people that they need to come visit our 65 other cars! I think I'm the typical example of someone that really wasn't into cars, but this collection is so amazing that you can't help but be interested and awed by it!
Around 11:30, we finally start moving onto the parade route. My job was to wave and to ring a bell that sounded like an ice cream truck. I rang the bell by tapping a button on the floorboard. It's fun to see friends all along the parade route and it seemed that lots of people took photos of our shiny car.
These old cars weren't meant to stroll along at this super-slow speed, so within a mile it was getting a little hot and leaking some oil. Ron and Willy kept an eye on things and said that as long as it was still leaking, we were OK-but if it stopped leaking then we're in trouble! After 2 hours we made it to the end of the route and gave the pretty, hot car a well-deserved rest! Now Willy and the crew get to fix the leaky problem.
I'm looking forward to next year's parade and getting to ride in another cool car!

Two local businesswomen will sprout a new venture in downtown.
Two local businesswomen will sprout a new venture in downtown.
Anne Anderson and Angie Shuman will open Herb & Renewal at 11 a.m. on Friday in Suite F of the Bijou Market building at 147 E. Main St.
The shop will offer herbs and herbal extracts for customers seeking alternative wellness solutions, as well as heaps of educational materials and other products from local and regional farmers and artisans.
"We're not trying to get anyone to change anything," said Anderson, 31, the wife of city councilman Sterling Anderson II. "We're here to serve an existing market that is untapped. There is a strong community of people interested in herbal and we want to fill a need that is very present."
Shelves stocked with bulk herbs, tinctures, some culinary herbs, plants, books, essential and base oils, "upcycled" clothing and lots of other sustainable lifestyle products line the shelves of the nearly 2,000-square-foot space. The store will also specialize in herbal pre-natal and mom and baby care.
But the owners said they want it to be more than just a retail shop. They plan to use it as a community gathering spot for workshops, meetings and other events.
"We're very excited to be here," said Shuman, 34. "I definitely think there is a market for something like this in Spartanburg. We want do everything we can to help people who are seeking a different way address their wellness needs."
Anderson and Shuman said the idea for their store was planted on a chilly night in December when they met for the first time and began conversing about how they could turn their passion for helping others into a small business.
Shuman became interested in alternative healing in 1998 after the birth of her daughter. She began looking into holistic medicine and homegrown remedies.
Six years ago, she started her career as a doula. While working with local pregnant mothers, she began researching herbalism as a complementary practice as many of her clients were interested in herbal teas and natural induction methods.
After a couple of years of independent studying and research, she began formal training with Heart of Herbs School of Herbalism and will soon receive her certification as a master herbalist.
Anderson has earned undergraduate degrees in sociology, psychology and baking, as well as a Master of Arts degree from Maryland University of Integrated Health. She said she started dabbling in herbal wellness about five years ago, using her husband as a guinea pig.
"He said he felt great so I took that as a good sign," said Anderson.
The owners said they have a spate of fun activities planned for Friday's grand opening. Several local vendors will be available to demonstrate why their products. Partnering entities include The Natural Apothecary, Lullaby Paints and The Growler Haus.
Classes on herbal first aid, plant identification, pre-natal wellness, kombucha making, henna for hair, aromatherapy candle making, belly dancing for healing and the wise woman tradition will begin later this month.

Daniel Vettori is the Man of the Match for his splendid show. He made 40 off 25 balls and bowled 4 tight overs. That finishes our coverage for today. The Big Bash takes a bit of a break - the next game is on the 17th. But the cricket doesn't end - we have the third test between Australia and India at the WACA starting tomorrow. It should be a racy and pacy affair on a 'ready for cows to graze' wicket. You don't want to miss that. We will be bringing it to you from 7:00 AM IST (9:30 local). Until then this is Srivathsa signing off on behalf of Pradeep. Be well and take care. Amen!
Forrest, the skipper of the Heat is very happy and rightly so. He says that Vettori made the difference. Afridi bowled well and we lost our way a bit in the middle overs reckons Forrest. While McDonald is a bit disappointed. He praises McDermott for his superb death bowling and says that they need to learn how to bowl at the end. Regarding Maxwell, he feels he is certainly out of the next game and hopes to have him back later on.
The Renegades would feel that this was a game, they should have won. They had Finch going strong at one end, but no one gave him any support. A couple of batsmen gifted their wickets when Finch was belting it all over the park. The run-out of Finch sealed the deal for the Heat. Great death bowling from McDermott - he looks a terrific talent for his ability to bowl perfect yorkers at the end when the pressure is on.19.6
McDermott to Manou, 1 run, the Heat win. What a last over from McDermott. All smiles from Haydos and the others. Low full toss following Manou who swings it to deep square. Takes the single. Heat win by 12 and still keep their slim hopes alive of reaching the semis19.5
McDermott to Nannes, 1 run, yorker on off, squirted off the outside edge to third man19.4
McDermott to Manou, 1 run, can't hit those for six. Right up there, driven to cover - the Heat almost through19.3
McDermott to Nannes, 1 run, good yorker outside off again, dug out to cover, gives the strike back to Manou
Dirk Nannes, right handed bat, comes to the crease19.2
McDermott to Heal, out Bowled!! That would have done his dad proud. Perfect off stump yorker, swung away too, from middle and goes under the bat of Heal. McDermott goes off on his celebratory run. Heal couldn't do anything with that special delivery. Heal b McDermott 0(1)
McDermott to Heal, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
Aaron Heal, left handed bat, comes to the crease19.1
McDermott to Manou, out Harwood Run Out!! Harwood had to go for it and he perishes. Manou missed the slog, wanted a bye. Hartley underarms and finds middle stump at the strikers end. Harwood was well short. Harwood run out (Hartley) 3(3)
McDermott to Manou, THATS OUT!! Run Out!!18.6
Neser to Manou, 1 run, backs away and drives to sweeper cover, wants the strike and retains the strike with that run18.5
Neser to Harwood, 1 run, the freehit doesn't cost much. Driven to long on. Only a single18.5
Neser to Manou, no ball, 1 run, what has gotten into Neser? He oversteps and concedes a freehit. Manou was rapped on the pads as he missed the flick, but maybe he got outside the line. There is a mid pitch discussion between the bowler, and a couple of others18.4
Neser to Manou, FOUR, that's how you do it. Shuffles across to off and middle, whips it over short fine. Got enough bat on it and that should still keep the Renegades in it18.3
Neser to Harwood, 1 run, low full toss, clipped to short fine leg, straight to the fielder - either side of Dan Vettori and it would've been a boundary. Harwood must be kicking himself18.3
Neser to Harwood, wide, Neser is feeling the pinch. Sprays it well outside off, Harwood can't reach it. Third wide of the over18.2
Neser to Manou, 1 run, low full toss on the stumps, slogged to backward square leg, only a single. Manou needed to have hit that for a biggie18.2
Neser to Manou, wide, slower delivery way outside off, wide called18.1
Neser to Harwood, 1 run, good yorker length delivery on the stumps, dug out to long on18.1
Neser to Harwood, wide, Neser isn't happy that it has been called a wide. Short one down leg, Harwood ducks and lets it go
Michael Neser [3.0-0-17-3] is back into the attack
Shane Harwood, right handed bat, comes to the crease17.6
McDermott to Manou, out Finch Run Out!!1 run completed. Robinson could well have sealed the game there. Finch is fuming on the way back. It was all Manou's fault. He was struggling to give the strike back to Finch, takes on long on and in eventually sees his partner getting out. Low full toss, bunted to the deep, Robinson runs in and hits direct at McDermott's end to catch Finch short. Can Manou take his side home? Looks highly unlikely. Finch run out (Robinson) 72(46) [4s-3 6s-5]
McDermott to Manou, THATS OUT!! Run Out!!17.5
McDermott to Manou, no run, yorker length delivery outside off, Manou moves towards off, misses. The pressure is telling on him17.4
McDermott to Manou, 2 runs, manages to get it away, sliced to sweeper cover, where Lynn slides to his left and prevents the boundary17.3
McDermott to Manou, no run, and again. He tries to go across the line to a low yorker that is swinging in, can't connect. Two dots in a row. Exceptional bowling from McDermott17.2
McDermott to Manou, no run, low full toss outside off, Manou hits it straight to the fielder at cover. He has to give the strike back to Finch17.1
McDermott to Finch, 1 run, good reverse swinger, right up there, Finch digs it out to mid on
Alister McDermott [2.0-0-10-2] is back into the attack16.6
R van der Merwe to Finch, 1 run, backs away and cuts to point, who dives to his right and keeps it to a single16.5
R van der Merwe to Finch, SIX, low full toss, Finch backs away and slogs it just beyond the leaping long on fielder. It went past the outstretched right hand. Finch might have felt he had holed out when he hit it, but managed to get a biggie.16.4
R van der Merwe to Finch, no run, yorker length delivery on the stumps, driven back to R van der Merwe who stops16.3
R van der Merwe to Finch, 2 runs, What an effort from Lynn at deep mid. Almost the catch of the Big Bash. Finch pulls, Lynn goes to his left at deep mid, catches it, but he is too close to the rope, the long is there in front of him, but Lynn throws it beyond his reach and goes outside the rope. Just threw it back in before he went over. The third ump confirms the same. If Lynn had thrown it straight up, the other man might well have caught it. Anyway a magnificent effort16.2
R van der Merwe to Manou, 1 run, how did that miss the stumps? Finch swung across the line and the ball seemed to have missed everything. It bounced over off stump, the ump gives it as runs16.1
R van der Merwe to Finch, 1 run, backs away and slams it to sweeper cover
Roelof van der Merwe [1.0-0-19-0] is back into the attack15.6
Christian to Manou, 2 runs, squeezed out wide of a diving point, they come back for the 2nd15.5
Christian to Manou, no run, was that out? Christian certainly thought so. Manou shuffled across a long way outside off and missed a flick. Replay show that it was clipping the stumps. Did Manou get outside the line? Not sure15.4
Christian to Finch, 1 run, low full toss on off, driven to long off, didn't time it well at all15.3
Christian to Finch, FOUR, slower delivery outside off, Finch gets under it and goes over cover. Timed well enough to get a boundary. Finch has to be there till the end to win it for his side15.2
Christian to Manou, 1 run, full one on the stumps, Finch digs it out to long on15.1
Christian to Finch, 1 run, down leg, clipped to backward square leg
Daniel Christian [3.0-0-12-1] is back into the attack14.6
Vettori to Manou, no run, flat and outside off, Manou opens the face of the bat and guides it to short third, successive dots14.5
Vettori to Manou, no run, well tossed up on the stumps, Manou gets forward and defends14.4
Vettori to Finch, 1 run, dabbed to point, gives the strike back to Finch14.3
Vettori to Finch, 2 runs, there was a chance of an overthrow, but they don't take it. It was flicked to deep mid, they take a couple14.2
Vettori to Finch, 2 runs, flat ball on the stumps, whipped off the backfoot through mid wicket for a couple14.2
Vettori to Finch, wide, slips it down leg14.1
Vettori to Manou, 1 run, turned to deep square leg13.6

Graham Manou, right handed bat, comes to the crease13.3
Neser to Glenn Maxwell, out Caught by Forrest at cover!! One has to feel for Glenn Maxwell. He was batting on one leg after his fielding injury earlier in the day. He lofts this full one on off, no timing and it goes off the toe end where Forrest takes it easily. The Heat chipping away at the wickets. Glenn Maxwell c Forrest b Neser 10(6) [4s-2]
Neser to Glenn Maxwell, THATS OUT!! Caught!!13.2

Neser to Finch, no run, full on the stumps, driven back to Neser12.6

Abdul Razzaq, right handed bat, comes to the crease11.1
Neser to Reardon, out Caught by R van der Merwe at fine leg!! Very half-hearted pull. The slower short delivery down leg, Reardon helped it on it's way, van Der came in and took a well judged catch. Neser strikes. Reardon c R van der Merwe b Neser 5(8)
Neser to Reardon, THATS OUT!! Caught!!10.6

Hauritz to Finch, no run, dabbed to short third, no run10.5
Hauritz to Finch, wide, the pressure shows, bowled well outside off as Hauritz expected Finch to charge down the track, he didn't10.4
Hauritz to Finch, SIX, the best of the three successive sixes. Hauritz looks perplexed. Finch came down and went over long off. Got to the pitch and hammered it. Lovely footwork and suddenly the game changing over has arrived. Heat under a bit of pressure10.3

A strange innings that from the Heat. Haydos and Lynn began superbly at the top, but once Boom Boom came on - he turned the game around - with three wickets in four balls. It looked like the Heat would struggle to bat out the 20 overs, but Vettori and van Der put on a blinder of a stand. Vettori was amazing with his executions, while Merwe slogged a few to the fence. Without their contribution, the Heat would be struggling. Now they have 168 on the board, which is a good total. Will they defend it? We will be back shortly to tell you whether they do so.19.6

When it comes to tablets, there are two that have found themselves in the limelight as of late. Apple's new iPad, as most new iDevices do, drew the crowds out on Friday for its official launch. And the Internet has been chock full of new iPad content the entire weekend. For the Android crowd, though, there is one single tablet that takes the cake, the ASUS Transformer Prime, which launched back in December of 2011.
During the new iPad announcement, Phil Schiller took the stage and flipped to a slide describing the third-generation iPad's new A5X dual-core processor, touting that it has four times the graphics power as the NVIDIA Tegra 3, the very processor the Prime uses. Those were, as any Android fan would have it, fighting words. It even forced NVIDIA to speak up and ask Apple what benchmarks they had used to come to such an assessment.
We know it's not all about the cores; the Snapdragon S4 serves as a testament to that. But Apple wasn't calling out the Tegra 3 on processing power. They were claiming the A5X chip has better graphics performance, and comparing GPUs is even more tricky. But a lot of people were skeptical when Apple threw around such big claims. So, over the weekend, Laptop Mag took the Transformer Prime and the new iPad and put them to the test.
What exactly did they find? Using benchmarking software that can be found on both iOS and Android, Laptop Mag learned that the A5X used in the iPad outperformed the Tegra 3 in 3D animations. Laptop Mag's Avram Piltch explains:
"On the program's [GLBenchmark 2.1] Egypt Standard test, which shows a 3D animation of ancient Egypt, the new iPad and its A5X chip processed 6718 frames at a rate of 60 frames-per-second to the Transformer Primer's 5,939 frames at 53 fps.
When GLBenchmark ran the Geometric test (vertex weighted), which measures low-level shader performance, the new iPad processed 7,530,524 frames at a rate of 57 fps while the Tegra 3-based Transformer Prime processed just 3,523,926 at a rate of 27 fps. We saw the same trend on the program's Fill test, which measures texturing speed, as the iPad processed 1.98 billion textels per second to the Prime's 404.61 million."
On Geekbench, though, the Tegra 3 blew the iPad away, says Pilch. The Tegra 3 scored a 1,571 compared to the A5X's 692. As far as integer, floating point and memory subtests go, the Tegra three edged out the A5X in every category. However, the A5X edged out the Tegra three (324 to 266) on the stream subtest.
But all of these numbers mean exactly zlich to someone who doesn't dwell on benchmarks.
I, for one, couldn't care less what the benchmarks read and really only care about how the devices fare in real world performance. I don't care if Device A bests Device B in some arbitrary test. There have been too many instances where high benchmark scores are not reflected in a device's actual performance. And in a test like this, where any other test might be a tie-breaker, the differences in benchmark scores are negligible aside from bragging rights and how the devices compare on paper.
What matters to me is how the devices perform when they're in your hands and you have a game loaded up and are pushing it to the limits – something I tend to do far too often. I often play games while streaming music on my tablet, and switch in and out of a game to respond to tweets, emails, etc. If a tablet or smartphone can handle all of that without keeling over, I'm happy.
Luckily, Laptop Mag also pitted the two tablets against each other in a subjective gaming test. They played Riptide and Shadowgun side by side on the two tablets. The iPad's Retina Display made for much sharper images, but the powerful Tegra 3 allowed for simulated graphics, like billowing flags in Shadowgun and water splashes in Riptide.
So what are the takeaways from Laptop Mag's tests? Apple's claims of the A5X having four times the graphics power of the Tegra 3 was pretty accurate and the Tegra 3, having two more CPU cores, bests the A5X in processing power. Both SoCs are great, leaps and bounds beyond the CPUs and GPUs of last year. Both the new iPad and Transformer Prime are going to play games, browse the Web, run applications and keep you plenty entertained. Neither of them will totally replace your laptop or desktop ... yet, and neither are going to bring you breakfast in bed.
Worrying about which chip is better and which one offers better graphics or better processing power is futile. Chances are, you are just going to replace it with the next best thing once it's available anyway, and software is really going to be the limiting factor in the end.
How do you feel about benchmark tests, readers? Obviously, you want any device you own to perform well. But do you worry about performance tests? Will you buy a device based solely on benchmarks? Or, like me, do you only care about getting a device in your hands and seeing how it performs in actual usage?

text: "The mountains are calling & I must go." -John Muir Love the Rockies? Regis University's close proximity to the mountains means you're a short drive away from Breckenridge, Vail and Winter Park, where world-class skiing, snowboarding, shopping and hotels beckon. If you're on a budget, it's worth the drive just for the scenery. Be on the watch for bison, elk, deer, big-horned sheep and other Colorado wildlife. Visit one of the small mining towns along the way such as Idaho Springs and grab a buffalo burger. Or, keep going up to Aspen, Telluride or Crested Butte for any number of events and activities throughout the year. Summer is off-season, so expect great discounts and excellent camping, hiking and biking weather. Skiing & Snowboarding If you're a skiier or a snowboarder, make time to head to the mountains and take advantage of the prime snow conditions. The Regis University campus is located within a two-hour drive of seven world-class ski resorts featuring varied terrain for first timers and seasoned experts alike. Most resorts offer some kind of student season pass discount, so gather some friends and go! Other Mountain Destinations In addition to great skiing, Colorado's mountains provide lots of year-round activities - from ice skating, snowshoeing and sledding, to camping, hiking, biking, horseback riding and fishing. Plus, most mountain towns host festivals such as Oktoberfest, 4th of July activities and holiday excursions. And don't forget about great restaurants and hotels! For a night, a weekend or a week, there is always something (or nothing!) to do in the mountains. Small town or large resort, you will find a favorite spot to enjoy Colorado's sunshine and friendly people.

Tiffin's Breeze Featured in RV Show 'Blitz'
September 14, 2010 by Bob Ashley · Comments Off on Tiffin's Breeze Featured in RV Show 'Blitz'
The all-new 28-foot Tiffin Breeze diesel pusher motorhome is being introduced to consumers this week during a blitz of RV shows in Hershey, Pa., Dallas, Texas, and Montreal, Quebec.
"It just happened that way by coincidence," Tiffin President Bob Tiffin told RVBUSINESS.com as he prepared to leave to attend the 42nd Annual Pennsylvania RV and Camping Show at Hersheypark in Hershey, Pa.
The consumer portion of the Hershey Show starts Wednesday (Sept. 15) and runs through Sunday.
The diminutive Breeze, named "Best of Show" by RVBusiness magazine at last year's National RV Trade Show in Louisville, Ky., also is making its retail debut Thursday through Sunday at the Southwest RV Supershow at Dallas Market Hall and at the 23rd Montreal RV Show in Olympic Stadium.
"It's going to be an interesting weekend," Tiffin said. "This time next week, I'll tell you how it goes."
The single-slideout Breeze, built on Tiffin's proprietary 21,500-pound GVWR PowerGlide diesel pusher chassis powered by a 215-hp Navistar MaxxForce 7 V-8 engine, has been on display at Tiffin's factory complex in Red Bay, Ala., for the last three months.
"We've had a very good reaction (from consumers)," Tiffin said. "They like the way it looks inside and they like the way it drives. I think we've got a winner all the way."
Tiffin said that the company will introduce a 32-foot double-slide version of the Breeze before the end of the year.
Tiffin said it's too early to tell how the Breeze will be accepted by consumers. "I don't really know how much that market will be until we get into the retail sales," he said. "The orders for that unit have been really strong at the dealer level."
Tiffin said that the Breeze is likely to appeal to older RVers who don't want to leave the RV lifestyle but are no longer comfortable driving a 40-foot Tiffin Phaeton or Allegro Bus. "This just might be the ticket for them," he said.
The company has ramped up production across all of its motorhome lines after cutting back production to three units a week during a good portion of 2009. "Like everyone else, we had a real struggle for seven, eight, nine months," he said. "Currently we are up to 10 units a day.
"I believe the worst of it is behind us, no doubt. But I don't know if the large Class A market will get back to where we were in the foreseeable future. The level of motorhome sales is going to be anywhere from 9,000 to 15,000 units for a good long while."
Tiffin said, however, that the company has sustained retail sales of about 50 motorhomes "for several months."
"We see that trend continuing," he said. "Time will tell the tale."
While getting ready to leave for Hershey, Tiffin brought up one of his favorite subjects — a coordinated model-year introduction and an earlier Louisville Show, currently staged the week after Thanksgiving.
"I would love to see the introduction of all models at Louisville (while) moving the show back a month or two," he said. "Back in the old days, we had the South Bend show in the second week in August and everybody tried to meet that date to introduce their new products.
"I don't know why we couldn't go back to something like that and move the Louisville show to September."

Rochdale's trading co-heads leave for rival firm
Bloomberg News
Rochdale Securities, the brokerage struggling to survive after an unapproved $1 billion trade in Apple Inc. went sour, lost its two co-heads of trading to a rival firm.
Kristen Talgo and Hal Tunick, who led equities institutional trading from Rochdale's Stamford headquarters, have joined Rafferty Capital Markets, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show. The two collectively owned 20 percent to 50 percent of Rochdale, according to Finra records.
"If the senior people are bailing out, it's obvious they don't have much confidence," said Richard Lipstein, managing director of New York-based recruiting firm Gilbert Tweed International. Lipstein, who hasn't been involved in the moves, said the traders may have forfeited compensation by leaving.
Rochdale President Daniel J. Crowley is seeking a rescue for the 37-year-old company, home of Dick Bove, the analyst known for his coverage of the biggest U.S. banks. The brokerage hasn't been allowed to trade since telling regulators last month that the Apple purchase had drained its cushion for losses, said two people with knowledge of the situation. That left employees unable to earn commissions, said the people, who asked for anonymity because they weren't authorized to comment publicly.
Michael Rafferty, the Rowayton-based president of the firm bearing his name, declined to say whether he had hired the Rochdale employees. Talgo, Tunick and Crowley didn't respond to e-mails and telephone calls. Bove, 71, said in an interview Wednesday he told Rochdale managers he'll stay until the situation is resolved.
Top executives told potential investors that an employee named David Miller bought about $1 billion in Apple stock around the time of the Cupertino, Calif.-based technology firm's October earnings release, the people said. Kenneth "Casey" Murphy, Miller's lawyer at Simon & Partners in New York, declined to comment on Miller's role.
Crowley has sought about $5 million to rebuild capital or a firm to merge with Rochdale, the people said. His task was complicated by the defections and by possible investigations from regulators into the firm's struggle, the people said.
Other Rochdale employees who have joined Rafferty include Jeffrey Wicker, Peter Doehla and Patrick Burke.
Finra records show. Burke, saying he spoke for all three, confirmed in an interview they had moved to Rafferty and wouldn't elaborate. Dow Jones reported earlier today that Doehla and Burke had resigned.
Rafferty's website lists its headquarters in Garden City, New York. The Finra records, dated Nov. 19, show the two trading co-heads joined Rafferty's office in Rowayton.
Rochdale has provided trading and research for institutional clients since 1975, according to the company's website.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – Returning home for the first time in 46 days, the King University men's volleyball team faced Pfeiffer University in a conference match on Wednesday. The visiting Falcons were able to spoil King's homecoming, however, taking the match in four sets to drop the Tornado to seventh place in the conference standings.
The Falcons (9-11, 6-4 Conference Carolinas) hit .324 on the evening, led by Michael Brewer's match-high 14 kills, and amassed 54 terminations. Brewer had a double-double that included ten digs, making him one of three Falcons to reach double-figures in digs. Fabio Diniz, who led the conference with a .384 hitting percentage coming into the match, hit .556 with an errorless ten kills and had eight blocks. David Specian had 46 assists to raise his average of 10.3 assists per set, which ranked 15th nationally coming into the match.
The third-place Falcons took control of the first set midway through, using a 4-0 run to turn a one-point advantage into a 13-8 lead. King (8-15, 3-7 Conference Carolinas) was never able to close within three points again, and a 7-1 Pfeiffer run keyed by a service error and a Specian and Diniz block sealed the Falcons' first-set win.
King, however, jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the second set never trailed en route to a 25-22 victory. The Falcons pulled to within a point on five different occasions, but a Nick Serowski kill gave King a 12-10 lead and would mark the final time Pfeiffer would trail by less than two points. King led by as many as four points six times late in the set before the Falcons scored consecutive points to make the score 24-22. An Eddie Moushikhian kill ended the set, however, and evened the score in the match.
Moushikhian and Mason Casner led the Tornado offensively with nine kills each. Casner's came on 13 attempts with two errors, giving him a .538 attack percentage for the match. He is now hitting .435 in his career against Pfeiffer. Casner, Serowski, and Matthew Lychock each also had three blocks to lead the team, while Jeremy Funk and Kiel Bell finished with eight digs each.
The fourth set featured five ties, but the Falcons never allowed King to take the lead. Pfeiffer seized control with a 7-2 run after King evened the score at eight points each. The Tornado pulled within three points several times, with the final occasion coming on a Casner and Moushikhian block of a Hamilton attack. But Pfeiffer maintained the lead and went on to a 25-17 win in the set, then opened the fourth set by scoring six of the first seven points and cruised to a 25-15 victory.
King now sits in seventh place in the conference standings, one-half game behind Barton College for the sixth and final qualifying position for a conference tournament bid. The Tornado and Bulldogs will square off on Friday evening in Bristol in a match with large postseason implications. First serve is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.

Jeremy Reed has said all along he knew what he was getting into by taking on the head coaching job of the Dickson football team.
Jeremy Reed has said all along he knew what he was getting into by taking on the head coaching job of the Dickson football team.
He was taking on a program with a recent history of struggles, but with a fanbase and group of young players willing to take the necessary steps to achieve greatness.
And while last season's 3-7 campaign may not have made waves across the state, it was exactly the sort of good start the Comets needed under Reed's reign.
Now, with a year under his belt, Dickson took in one final scrimmage against Holdenville on Friday before beginning preparations to take on Kingston in the 2012 season opener.
And with a 7-6 win in a half of play, under controlled situations, Reed certainly wasn't upset.
"I was pleased," Reed said. "I felt like we got better this week from first scrimmage to second scrimmage."
In particular, Reed pointed to the strong rushing attack his offense presented, with the team gashing the Holdenville defense for yardage at certain points, led by the fierce and physical running of halfback Drake Haggard.
I felt like we controlled the line of scrimmage well in our running game," Reed said. "We consistently got a good push with our guys up front and Drake ran very well."
That offensive line paved the road for Dickson's first touchdown, a 2-yard rush by senior Dakota Helm that put Dickson ahead 7-0 with 2:30 remaining in the first period.
Defensively, Dickson was led by the outstanding play of junior defensive lineman Shawn McClellan, who recorded two sacks on key third down plays in the contest.
"He's been very good all camp long," Reed said.
The entire defense was impressive, shutting down, for the most part, the Holdenville offense and showing a swarming, aggressive look on defense.
"Defensively, we challenged our kids this week," Reed said. "I didn't particularly like how we looked last week, but I was pleased with what I saw tonight."
While Haggard was an impressive force all night, he did produce the lone points for the visitors on a goalline run in the second quarter, when the ball popped out of his arms and was scooped and returned 100 yards for a touchdown by a Holdenville defensive player.
"I think without that turnover there, it's a pretty lopsided game," Reed said. "I thought he was in for the score, and so did (Haggard), but we'll see that in film."

Avicii Models Ralph Lauren's Denim & Supply 2013 Spring Lookbook
Music and fashion collide all the time (see: Danny Brown Models Mark McNairy's 2013 Spring/Summer Collection), so it's no surprise that Ralph Lauren would snag Swedish DJ Avicii to help show off their Spring 2013 lookbook.
The musician—known for his club-shattering "Levels" single, which Flo Rida spun for a Billboard number-one Pop hit himself ("Good Feeling")—assists RL in presenting a collection that keenly articulates distressed Americana & overall dominates the denim game. Playing on a heavy concentration in patterns & textures, pieces like their Native-print denim jacket, fringed camo shorts, and western Hippy-inspired button-downs tell an interesting style story.

The point is that making duplicate copies of the software is a violation and illegal. So if you buy a CD but you can't play the CD at 5 places at the same time then that is fine. You shouldn't be able to.
However telling me that I can play the CD in SONY CD player only but not in my car is clearly violation of my right of use. So now I should buy two copies of the same CD, one for my car and one for my home audio system?
Yes this is a sad situation and we got in this sad situation because we lack a technological solution to piracy without sacrificing user freedom.
The day we have such a solution, I am sure companies would be able to relax their licenses on music, books
Now about the Apple EULA, I don't think Apple EULA would hold in court if a user installs their legal copy on a custom PC (as long as it is the only copy the user is using).

Information for Patients
Epilepsy is a brain disorder that causes people to have recurring seizures. The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, in the brain send out the wrong signals. People may have strange sensations and emotions or behave strangely. They may have violent muscle spasms or lose consciousness.
Epilepsy has many possible causes, including illness, brain injury, and abnormal brain development. In many cases, the cause is unknown.
Doctors use brain scans and other tests to diagnose epilepsy. It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people. When medicines are not working well, surgery or implanted devices such as vagus nerve stimulators may help. Special diets can help some children with epilepsy.

Former Ellender High and Nicholls State men's basketball player Trevon Lewis said he will transfer to play at Angelo State University, starting next year.
Former Ellender High and Nicholls State men's basketball player Trevon Lewis said he will transfer to play at Angelo State University, beginning next year.
Lewis said he signed his scholarship papers to play at Angelo State, a NCAA Division II college based in San Angelo, Texas, on Wednesday afternoon.
Lewis led the Colonels in scoring (12.6 points per game) and rebounding (5.1 points per game) last season and was named the Southland Conference's Freshman of the Year.
He helped Nicholls (10-20 overall) reach the Southland tournament last season. However, his season ended when he suffered a torn ACL injury during the conference tournament.
Lewis said he has spent the offseason rehabbing the injury, and he looks forward to joining Angelo State's basketball team for the 2013-14 season.
"The rehab and my workouts are going very well," Lewis said on Wednesday. "I just can't wait to get back on the court and play again."
Lewis also had academic issues at Nicholls and was ineligible to play for the Colonels this season. He said it was his decision to leave Nicholls for another college.
For the complete story on Lewis' signing with Angelo State, please read Friday's print and online editions of The Courier and Daily Comet.

After yesterday's TV advertisement, Microsoft finally unveiled the pricing for its Surface tablet - the ARM Windows RT version that is. The cheapest Surface - 32GB without touch cover - will set you back $499. They're aiming straight for iPad pricing here, ignoring the popular cheaper Android offerings.
The pricing was revealed in Microsoft's online store, which right now only serves the US - a link for non-US residents currently leads to an empty page, so I can't give you the European pricing just yet. Most likely, they'll just substitute the dollar sign for a euro sign.
The 32GB version without a cover is $499; the 32GB version with the Touch Cover is $599. If you opt for 64GB, you'll have to part with $699. We're looking at pre-orders right now, but they'll ship by 26 October. No information yet on Surface Pro, the Intel version.
All things considered, the Surface RT is looking like a hard sell. It's the same price as an iPad 3 - but the iPad 3 has far more momentum behind it, including far, far more applications. Worse yet, the Surface RT has a paltry 1366x768 resolution, while the iPad 3 has that beautiful (don't try to deny it!) 2048x1536 display.
Compared to Android tablets, it ain't doing so well either. Both the Nexus 7 and the Kindle Fire HD are far cheaper ($200 and $299 respectively), and the Fire HD has, to boot, a 1920x1080 display. A lot will ride on just how successful Microsoft will be at advertising Surface as a full PC instead of 'just' a tablet, and, not entirely unimportant, just how much users actually care about that.
I was originally planning on buying a Surface RT - I like Metro on my phone - but I'm not going to shell out $499 for this. Had it had a 1080p display, it would be worth considering - but like this? No thanks. Drop it to $300-400 and we'll talk.

then it was 11:30 by the time i was home, fed the pets etc. riding for an hour just seemed stupid.
