There's just no keeping media under wraps in the modern age. Microsoft and 343 Industries' Halo 4 is the latest video game to leak onto the Internet well ahead of its November release date. Images of retail discs of the Xbox 360 exclusive appeared online on the web forum NeoGAF on Thursday, as well as images of the game running on an Xbox 360 dashboard. Full video playthroughs of the game began appearing online later on. "There are people putting the whole thing on YouTube," Halo franchise director Frank O'Connor told Polygon, "Microsoft is addressing that a single case at a time, it just takes a little while to handle." The leak is thought to have originated at a manufacturing facility.
While O'Connor said that the team at 343 Industries is unsurprised by the leak, and undeterred from its in-progress development of downloadable content for the game, like new Spartan Ops episodes, Microsoft is getting more aggressive in its pursuit of Halo 4 pirates.
Anyone playing the game on an Xbox 360 connected to the Internet, for example, is receiving a lifetime ban from Xbox Live. These users, according to MCV, are receiving emails to tell them they have been suspended from the service.
"This email is to notify you that your Xbox Live privileges have been permanently suspended due to illegitimate prerelease title play. Because your conduct is in violation, the Xbox Live Enforcement Team has issued a permanent suspension. Your Xbox Live privileges will not be reinstated."
These users have little recourse as, according to Microsoft's Xbox Live Code of Conduct, the company reserves the right to suspend new accounts opened by users trying to get around suspensions, provided Microsoft identifies them.
This isn't the first time that Microsoft has sought and permanently banned Xbox Live users. In 2011, Microsoft discovered a number of users that had illegitimately accessed Xbox Live Marketplace items and began issuing bans from the service that would last until the date 12/31/9999. It has also regularly banned cheaters from using the service. It actually isn't even the first time it's banned players for playing pirated Halo games. A number of players received permanent Xbox Live bans in 2010 for playing Halo: Reach a month before it was released.
With Halo 4 appearing on Torrent sharing websites, will the release of Microsoft's big holiday game be hampered by lost sales? We'll know in November.

Caltrans Receives $171 million to Improve Passenger Rail Service
Sacramento – The Federal Railroad Administration has awarded the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) $171 million to improve service on its highly successful intercity passenger rail service.
"The federal funding for intercity rail provides the impetus to expand and greatly improve passenger rail service statewide," said Caltrans Director Cindy McKim.
The largest component of the grant, $100 million, is targeted for the purchase of 40 new rail cars and six locomotives for the San Joaquin, Pacific Surfliner and Capitol Corridor routes. The Pacific Surfliner route received more than $28 million for track and signal upgrades, bridge work, curve realignments, and other infrastructure enhancements. Additionally, more than $38 million will fund safety improvements through the installation of Positive Train Control technology, which reduces the risk of train-to-train collisions, over-speed derailments, and injuries to railway maintenance workers.
The funding was part of more than $901 million awarded to the state that included $731 million for the California High Speed Rail Authority's projects in the Central Valley and San Francisco.
"Amtrak stands ready to offer our expertise to our state partners to help implement these important projects to improve our national intercity passenger rail network," said Amtrak President & CEO Joseph Boardman.
California is home to the second (Pacific Surfliner), third (Capitol Corridor), and fifth (San Joaquin) busiest intercity passenger rail corridors in the nation. With five million annual passengers, California has more than 20 percent of all Amtrak riders. Since 1990, the state has invested more than $1.3 billion in infrastructure and equipment for intercity passenger rail and about $1 billion in operating support.

text: Loyola named "Top Producer" of U.S. Fulbright scholars November 15, 2013 | By Nick Alexopulos Loyola University Maryland is a top producer of U.S. Fulbright scholars among master's institutions, according to data released by the Fulbright Scholar Program and published in the Chronicle of Higher Education. The "Top Producing" schools are those institutions in each Carnegie Classification that had the highest number of students and scholars who received Fulbright grants for 2013-14. Loyola has two Fulbright winners this year, and each is a faculty member. "Loyola's success in Fulbright programs—on the part of our faculty and our students, alike—represents our zeal to collaborate, learn, and teach in the Jesuit tradition," said Timothy Law Snyder, Ph.D., vice president for academic affairs at Loyola. "When our faculty and student scholars partner with communities throughout the globe to collaborate and share knowledge, they demonstrate a deep understanding of the increasing imperative to connect with other cultures by meeting other citizens where they are." In July, Roberta Sabin, Ph.D., professor emerita of computer science, was awarded a Fulbright Scholar grant to teach computer science at the University of Malawi. Business is booming in this region of Sub-Saharan Africa, which means commerce is increasingly dependent on technology. Sabin arrived in Malawi in September, and she hopes that her six months of teaching can help provide future business and technology leaders with a comprehensive understanding of the innovation computer systems are capable of unlocking. In May, Barbara Vann, Ph.D., associate professor and chair of sociology, won a Fulbright Scholar grant to teach and study at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, for the spring 2014 semester. At the Charles University Institute of Sociological Studies, Vann will continue her ongoing research of collective memory–information that becomes the memory of a group of people–as it relates to the period before, during, and after the Velvet Revolution, a non-violent protest that toppled the Communist regime in Czechoslovakia in 1989. She has studied the topic for the better part of a decade, gathering vital information in short stints during the one month study abroad program in Prague she leads each summer. Vann plans to publish a book about her findings once her research is complete. Loyola and Regis University are the only Jesuit schools to make this year's list of top Fulbright producers. Read the Chronicle story here. About the Fulbright Program: The Fulbright Program, the U.S. government's flagship international educational exchange program, is sponsored by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the United States Department of State. Since its inception in 1946, the Fulbright Program has provided more than 325,000 participants—chosen for their academic merit and leadership potential—with the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to shared international concerns. More information about the Fulbright Program is available online.

Monaco GP Qualifying Press Conference
02.06.2011 @ 12:19:45
Drivers: 1 - Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull), 2 -
Jenson Button
(McLaren), 3 - Mark Webber (Red Bull)
Q: Sebastian, your first pole here at Monaco. Share your feelings with us?
Sebastian Vettel: Yes, it is a long way around here. Qualifying is tough. Three segments so in
We like to read car news on
each one you have to give it your 100 per cent. We had very good preparation in Q1 and Q2, maybe not yet perfect but then in Q3 the lap I had was just spot on, so I was really happy with that. But I think sitting here now talking about qualifying, I think the most important thing was to hear that Sergio Pérez is okay. He is conscious. We all sit inside the cockpit and wait to go out, but we see the images as well. We are all thinking of him and wish him all the best and hopefully he can start the race tomorrow. It wasnt easy to wait that long time but I think the circuit in Q3 after waiting such a long time was not there anymore. Not a lot of people did improve. It was quite slippery. Had to wait long for that pole but very pleased. Always here it is very important, so very happy.
Q: Jenson, a difficult session for everybody but as Sebastian said the lap speed was not there in that final run. Tell us about the track condition when you all went out there for that final two minutes.
Jenson Button
: Yeah, it was very slippery. But we wanted to get out early to really push on the out lap and there wasnt any tyre temperature as we had been sitting in the pit-lane for two-and-a-half minutes. It wasnt best but the great thing was I put in a good lap at the start of the session. A lap I was very happy with, much better than my Q2 lap. But I would just like to say also it is great that Sergio is talking and is okay. I think I was the last person to go in there in 2003 and I know how much it hurts. It is never nice to see that sort of thing. I hope he is okay. I am not sure he will be racing tomorrow but I hope he gets well soon.
Q: Mark, you won last year from pole position. With the new tyres and the DRS wings is it possible to win this year from third place and how did you feel about your performance today.
Mark Webber: Absolutely it is. The races we have seen are a bit more mixed up certainly than the last few years. Tomorrow should be no exception but qualifying here is crucial, no question about it. Pole is certainly a nice benefit to have. Seb did a great lap again today and deserves the pole. JB as well. It was a good first run. It was a messy session I think for all of us. You never anticipate not getting a second go but that is the way it felt today. Clearly the biggest priority took over when one of our colleagues, Sergio, had a tough crash and all the medical people have got to make sure they make all the precautions to extract him in the best possible way. Our thoughts are with him and he is in great hands.
We know he is talking and conscious and he will bounce back from this I am sure. But we can learn from this incident. In terms of safety its an area where we need to look at and improve for the future. JB was lucky, Karl Wendlinger back in the mid-1990s, so I think there are a few places around here we probably need to continue to keep an eye on.
Q: Sebastian, the Monaco Grand Prix is a race you have never won before. How important is it to you to put that right tomorrow?
SV: Well I wouldnt mind, lets put it this way. It is a long race. Always here it is a bit of a casino so a lot of things going on. It is a long race, 78 laps is a long way and as we have seen grands prix this year with multiple pit-stops could change in the last minute but one thing that remains unchanged is that pole position here remains important so I think we can be very happy with that. But there is no guarantee for tomorrow. All our eyes are on tomorrows races and we have to push hard so lets see what we can do.
Q: Sebastian, it is no surprise to see you on pole position in many ways but there seemed to be two other teams that were looking good in practice and in qualifying itself?
SV: Yes, I think you can never be sure you are on pole especially around here. P1, P2, P3, all the practice sessions were extremely close. We knew that we should be okay, but until qualifying comes you dont know. McLaren, especially Lewis (Hamilton) looked very competitive. He was a bit unlucky. Obviously different strategy to the rest. Probably doing only one run in the end which caught him out with the red flag. Then to be honest Ferrari looked very competitive. Fernando (Alonso) in particular. I dont know what happened to them in qualifying but once you start going you are totally focussed on yourself. You try to find your way around here. I think it is very, very important to find the rhythm. In Q1 and Q2 I think we were there or thereabouts, not 100 per cent happy, but in Q3 I think the circuit did another step and we were able to use that and improve by quite a bit so all in all very happy with qualifying.
Especially around here we know it is very important the position you start from. Starting on the clean side as well so couldnt be any better. But surely there is a bit of a shadow over qualifying when you see a colleague crash and not jumping out of the car immediately. Nico (Rosberg) had a similar accident this morning, same place, and he walked away so nothing to worry about. But then you sit inside your car and I was asking to get any feedback, any updates, to know how Sergio is doing. To be honest it is difficult to keep the focus and you dont feel 100 per cent well when you dont know what is going on. The message that he is fine, he is talking, he is conscious is already a big relief. We all wish him the best and to get well soon. Whether he is able to drive tomorrow I dont know. We hope but we have to see.
Q: For the race tomorrow do you feel this is more of a lottery here. Every race seems to have been so much of a lottery. Things going forward, backwards, everything? Is it more of a lottery or less than other races?
SV: It is difficult to say. I think Monaco in general is casino. There are a lot of things that can go on but we will have to see. One thing for sure overtaking is not easy here. Other tracks it was quite easy, possible, as sometimes you were on a different tyre plus DRS helped you. I think the effect of DRS here is fairly small. If you look at the distance it is not even half of what we used to have in other tracks plus even if your tyres go off, if you have someone in front and they are struggling with tyres, it will be very difficult to pass him. We have seen it in the past. I remember two years ago I had a horrible rear tyre and I was able to stay ahead. I was, I think, five seconds slower and then at some point there was no chance anymore to defend. We will see. I can give you the answer tomorrow. Obviously it is a long race here so we have to keep the focus now completely on the race and see what we can do.
Q: On the front row for the second time after China so obviously you must be pleased with that?
JB: Yeah, very pleased. These guys for some reason always seem to go a lot quicker in Q3 than in Q1 and Q2. But personally I was very happy with my lap. I didnt really get it all together in Q2. I knew there was a bit more there. Considering I was expecting to get another run I am very happy with the time I did. The car felt good and pretty much all weekend the car has given me a lot of confidence to really push it around here, which bodes well for the race. The race pace seemed to be very good. So good to be on the front row. But same as what Seb said I am glad that Sergio is talking and okay. I obviously had a big accident there in 2003 and I also know he will be very well looked after. He has probably had all the x-rays and everything by now. He is probably already shouting I want to be in the car, let me get back in the car, which is what I was doing. I am glad he is okay and hopefully we will see him back soon.
Q: Tell us what the problem is going into that chicane; weve seen two cars just turn right into the barrier, why does that happen?
JB: Its when you first hit the brakes; the rear goes very light. For some reason it seems to be more of an issue this year, which surprises me, because of the blown diffuser systems that a lot of us have. But the rear goes very light and at that point you become a passenger if you get oversteer. You have no control of the car and its pitching them into the right side barrier and then the problem is that you lose braking capability, because youve got two wheels off the car and its just a sled, just sitting on the floor. And Im really happy that Charlie made the right call and took away those speed humps from this morning, after Nicos accident, because I think if they had been there, the accident would have been even worse. Its a tricky corner and its an area where its very difficult to do anything about in terms of safety because it is what it is. Its Monaco, a street circuit, but I still think we need to look further as to what we can do with the run-off there.
Q: Mark, youre obviously a previous winner here; how much of an advantage is that?
MW: Not a disadvantage. I think Seb can join a lot of the quick boys tomorrow, obviously, with everything else hes achieved, but its great to win here obviously: JB has, Lewis has, Fernando, myself, so quite a few of us have won here. Its a long grand prix, we know that. This year things have changed a bit more within the grands prix, as youve touched on, so lets see how it goes. For sure pole is important. Seb did a great job today, a good first run and that was enough, obviously, in a pretty chaotic session in terms of dealing with Sergio and then obviously a long, long, wait for us to go back out. So, in the end, to be honest, if youd asked me before qualifying would I have taken third, probably I would have, but yeah, its never nice knowing that you could do a bit better.
Obviously the car, the team have done a great job getting everything ready so yeah, it was a tricky session for everybody and Im pretty happy to be third on the grid to be honest, and its a great position to still get a top result tomorrow. I just want to echo the boys thoughts on Sergio. Obviously, it was a very nasty incident. Weve seen a few guys have problems out of there this weekend and its not a very nice part of the track -very, very high speed with a compromised run-off. Youve got to slot down either side. Obviously, Nico went down one side and weve seen people go down the other side but if you get it in the middle, you have problems, as Sergio did today. He will be in great hands, were all thinking of him. Its never comfortable to see one of our mates have a nasty one like that. So yeah, that can happen, but we want to see and learn how things improve in the future.
Q: You lost a full session on Thursday; how much did that hurt you?
MW: Its never a help. Ive normally not been too bad around here, struggling a little bit with rhythm and not comfortable in a couple of corners on the track but getting better, to be honest. I think the short runs are actually a little bit more difficult for me than getting into a rhythm and doing a longer run. As I say, second row, try and get away well tomorrow. Its a long, long grand prix. It could be quite easy at any stage to be leading the race, it can happen, and also you can go the other way as well but Im looking to go forward. The cars been reliable and running well, so looking forward to a long grand prix tomorrow and hopefully Ill see you guys again.
Q: (Malcolm Folley -Mail on Sunday) Jenson, you have experienced the same accident that Sergio has had. We saw Karl Wendlinger before you and DCs had an accident there and two this time. You talk about there being not much you can do about it, improving the safety there. It would suggest that something ought to be done to improve the safety there for you guys.
JB: Yes. The cars have improved dramatically in terms of safety since Karl Wendlingers accident and the circuit has improved, the barriers been moved back since my accident, so there have been improvements, but we need to find a solution because we all love racing here. Its a very special circuit for us and theres so much history but theres a couple of areas. That is the main area really, I think. Its an area that we need to discuss and try and come up with a solution because we all think the same thing. We all want it to be safer there, so we can really come here and really enjoy the racing.
Q: (Ian Parkes -Press Association) Guys, youve all talked about the dangers, about part of the circuit, and obviously it has become, clearly, quite dangerous. Youre paid to do what you do but are all you three guys prepared to put your lives on the line tomorrow going into that race?
JB: Motor racing is dangerous; it says that on the passes, and we all know that, but theres always more we can do. Were all going to go racing tomorrow and Im pretty sure that with higher fuel loads and everything you wont see any issues -I hope. So yeah, it is a dangerous sport, but I think we still need to keep tweaking certain areas. Some people say that it should always stay a dangerous sport, we shouldnt improve it, but I dont think thats correct. I think weve had some amazing racing this year and a lot of very safe racing, and some great fights, but there are just a couple of little areas that I think we all need to sit down and really be improved for the future.
SV: Not much to add. If we make comparisons to the past, between the lines you can read a bit of criteria that things are too safe these days and too easy in some ways, but things like this are a bit of a wake-up call, so we have to make sure that we learn from this and surely theres very little we can do for tomorrow. Obviously, the most important message was that Sergio is OK but for the future, we race on street circuits, here or places like Singapore, so its our job, the drivers job to make sure we defend ourselves and say OK, listen, we need this and that much space here and there and that should be the target. But, as I said, the most important thing is that Sergio is OK now and well have a good and safe race tomorrow.
Q: (Mathias Brunner -Speedweek) There is a lot of construction going on in that area; do you find that the track has become more bumpy than in years past?
MW: Its always been pretty bumpy out of the tunnel, on the brakes and as the boys have touched on a little bit, every year we come here the cars are a little bit different, aerodynamically. Also, in the early 2000s, we had cars with engine braking, distance mapped electronics, things that were very sophisticated to help (with) the rear locking and the problems that you can have when the rear of the car is moving around. Now the cars are a little bit more basic in some ways but then obviously you have more technology like the diffusers and things like this, so were always looking to make the cars fast, but on the flipside of that, the cars also then become a bit easier to drive or more predictable in those tricky situations. I think there is a bump there but its just if you have a problem with the rear of the car there at that speed, the chance to recover is very, very low.
We saw Nico, obviously, and Vitaly on Thursday had a problem and he went straight down; I think he was lucky. And I think also whats important to mention that it was very lucky that they pulled the sleeping policemen up after Nicos incident this morning because I think Sergio could have even had a nastier accident with his car potentially not having the right impact into the side. We just need to keep learning and work with the FIA, and the drivers chip in every now and again and help out the guys, because were the ones in the cockpit and its nice to try and improve where we can.
Q: (Heikki Kulta - Turun Sanomat) Sebastian, this was your first pole here in Monaco. Was this the pole that you wanted the most and it must have been quite a lap because you broke Kimis record from 2005 by one tenth?
SV: Ah, its good to hear. I think Kimi doesnt care, to be honest. Yeah, Jensons just said hes driving trucks these days. I was very happy with the lap. Obviousl, round here its very important to find the rhythm. If you feel happy in the car and you have confidence in yourself and the car, then you are able to extract so much lap time around here. Its a very special circuit, its good fun but still you need to push very, very hard, just like on a normal racetrack where you have space and nothing around. But here, any mistake could lead you into the barriers, so you feel this extra thrill and its even more of a reward when you cross the line and you know that you had a very, very good lap. Im very happy with that pole position. As I said, its an important part of tomorrows race but weve seen a lot of casino in many, many years here so we will see what happens tomorrow.
Q: (Tony Dodgins - Tony Dodgins Associates) Sebastian, last year it was Mark who was really well hooked up around here and I think they might have found a small hairline crack in your tub or something later, but does it feel like a different race car this year? Whats different?
SV: The cars are different this year, the tyres are different. A lot of things are different, but to look back at last year, surely I wasnt happy, didnt always feel comfortable in the car, but I think Mark was very quick around here, and very tough to beat, especially in the race, so he gave us all a lesson on that day. We will see this year. Im very happy with how it went today but tomorrow is a different story. All I have gained so far is eight meters over this guy (
Jenson Button
) so we will see what we can do tomorrow. Track position is very important here, weve learned that in the past but I think theres no rain forecast so we can leave that one out. But you never know, were living by the sea. There are so many factors here, we will see.

"Hey I purchased a 5'8" fish surfboard from you yesterday. This morning the surf looked a bit mushy but I paddled out anyways for what turned out to be a very fun session. The surfboard worked better than I had hoped. Thank you so much!"
Garrett King
Malibu, CA
Oh my gosh, how wrong I was to think the surfboard we got from you might be a little lower quality. But it wasn't until my husband got on it that we realized that it is truly an awesome surfboard. He caught waves he normally wouldn't even paddle for and rode them to shore. Thanks again for helping us to pick the right surfboard."

Speaking on the second day of U.N. climate change negotiations, diplomats from Malawi and Zimbabwe demanded more transparency from developed countries claiming to deliver money. And, they said, a clear blueprint for ramping up aid between 2013 and 2020 is a must.
"This climate finance road map will be required. ... It is a precondition for any successful outcome in Doha," said Evans Njewa of Malawi, who is coordinating finance issues for least-developed nations.
Developed countries say they have fulfilled an obligation to deliver $30 billion to poor nations over the past three years. Meanwhile, countries are building up a Green Climate Fund to deliver the next promise: about $100 billion annually in public and private dollars for climate aid.
But those middle years remain undefined, and some activists say they fear countries will fall off the climate finance cliff without formal obligations to provide a steady increase of money throughout the decade.
Meanwhile, Njewa said, "The $100 billion pledge from the Copenhagen Accord is not adequate." Rather, he said, vulnerable nations need about $600 billion annually, or 1.5 percent of the gross domestic product of industrialized nations.
"We are being very conservative," said David Kaluba, chief economist for Zambia's Ministry of Finance. He said vulnerable countries, most of which are dependent on rain-fed agriculture and lack internal capacity to adapt, face enormous challenges.
"One hundred billion is very minimum compared to the task that is ahead of us, and mind you, climate change is not an issue of the future," he said.
Earlier this week, the United States announced it had delivered $7.5 billion in both grants, development and export financing from 2010 through 2012. Japan says it has delivered $17.4 billion.
'Enormous' efforts may not be enough
But developing country negotiators say they have misgivings about whether rich countries have actually honored their collective pledges. According to the U.K.-based International Institute for Environment and Development, countries fell far short of the goal, delivering $23.6 billion.
And American environmental groups say U.S. aid for clean energy through the Export-Import Bank has been undermined by the nearly $10 billion that went through that agency to support fossil fuels.
"The Obama administration is in Doha right now saying that we are making 'enormous' efforts to reduce emissions, and yet at the same time, an agency directly under the control of the president has now set a new record for fossil fuel subsidies," said Justin Guay, coal campaigner for the Sierra Club.
"I think it speaks volumes to the administration's doublespeak on climate change," he said. "On the one hand, they are supporting increased investment in clean energy, which is very important and which we certainly welcome. But at the same time, they are directly financing the problem."
The discussion came amid the opening of debate yesterday over what a possible new treaty to be signed by 2015 and take effect in 2020 might look like. An agreement in Durban, South Africa, last year to launch a process toward this new treaty outlined a new way of fighting climate change in which all emitters, not just rich industrialized nations, would take legal obligations.
That notion appeared to hit a rhetorical wall, though, as country after country demanded that there be no "rewriting" of the U.N. climate convention, which calls for "common but differentiated responsibilities" among nations.
"The Durban Platform is by no means a process to negotiate a new regime, nor to renegotiate, rewrite or reinterpret the convention or its principles," said China's lead negotiator, Su Wei.
Concerns about catastrophic warming
He and diplomats from other countries pointed to another worrisome gap -- between the emissions pledges countries have made up to 2020 and what scientists say is needed to avoid catastrophic warming.
Nehru's negotiator said a work plan to lay out ways to increase ambition before 2020 is "one of the central elements of a package" and "an absolute red line" for small island nations.
"It is the only reason we were able to join a consensus on a mandate that would not see a new protocol in effect until 2020," he said, calling for a comprehensive schedule for parties to identify cost-effective policies and measures to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
State Department Deputy Special Envoy for Climate Change Jonathan Pershing said Monday that the United States is on a path toward meeting its Copenhagen target of cutting emissions 17 percent below 2005 levels this decade. But he also said the United States and other countries are unlikely to change their 2020 targets.
Australia, speaking for a U.N. coalition of countries that includes the United States, called for countries to get to work on a 2020 agreement applicable to all emitters. Saying that a new way of framing responsibility "signaled to the world that we would no longer let divisions between parties get in the way of our goal," the Australian negotiator said Doha must deliver a clear plan for the following year's work.
"We cannot afford to take a backwards step," he said.

About Digitalistically Speaking
I've been involved in a couple of startups that didn't make it.I lost a lot of time, money and opportunities.
Promises made, money collected, bankruptcy filed.This happens all the time...thousand of businesses fail every day.
The Road to hell is paved with good intentions...
You move on.Nothing else you can do.
Hats off...People that can, should. No excuses.
But,since it's free I would probably attend with them.
Once each year High schools unleash a torrent of hormone laden teenagers into a world they're ill equipped to handle. Many go on to college where they enroll into a four year nonstop Party with a $40,000 per year cover charge. The majority of them will arrive at class stoned or drunk or hung over and sleep thru most of their classes or just not show up. Instead of focusing on learning they focus on developing friendships and contacts and sports heroes. A few will not join the party and will pay attention and actually learn something.
How many college graduates do you know that are incompetent in their jobs or just plain unqualified.Lots I bet.(Hint:The entertainment industry)
For those that cannot afford the cost of an "eduflated" 4 yr degree, a free online degree is the way to go.
If a person is motivated and disciplined enough to study on their own and earn a degree from Stanford or Harvard, that's the person I want to hire.
"That same argument could be used to "nationalize" any company. You know, the laundromat on the corner isn't providing enough social good, so we should nationalize it."
What a Great thought.
If the Government took over launromat operations there would be be one Giant Washer and no dryer.
It would be able to hold all of the laundry of the Neighborhood it serves and would cost 2000.00 per load and only be avail once a week due to ongoing contract negotiations with the International Laundry operators Federal fraternity (ILAFF).
All the people that want to use it that week would all have to show up at the same time.
Since they're there to wash their clothes, they would all have to strip naked for their TSA probe.
Once you get through security everyone would be naked and an orgy would ensue while their waiting for their clothes.
If you wait a while longer you will be able to get FB stock for $5 a share...it's down to $19 now
I like it!
There's Games That-Can't Be-Mentioned going on? Where That-We-Can't-Mention at?
i just want to mention but I can't.
Isn't all money the disappearing type?
But you have to spend it right away or it will disappear.
What a great idea.Now you see it,now you don't.
Now you see it,now you don't.
Now you see it,now you don't.
Now you see it,now you don't.
Automatic Peek a Boo for the little ones!
Ideas like that will never catch on.
I own the Patent for 1 and the copyright for 0.
and the trademark for 10,01,and 1001,and etc,etc, and so on
All you low life infringers out there...PAY UP!

Guess we shouldn't have china manufacture all our consumer stuff.
Is it stealing if we give them the plans for everything?
Sounds like it's gonna be a somewhat boring movie anyway so I probably won't watch it.
Unless the the main character is some sort of action hero type with a super hot and sexy sidekick who is always smarter the he is and they drive a super cool car that also morphs in to a helicopter and a fighter jet and a speed boat and a motorcycle and a soap box derby racer and a jet ski and a...maybe if they hire some really good writers this thing could have a chance.
What were we talking about again?
So to keep up they're negotiating skills while they're not actually negotiating, some negotiators are negotiating for hookers and blow for the negotiators that are not actually negotiating.
Being a negotiator is brutal work.
Is He afraid that some hacker somewhere will gain access to our critical infrastructure and cause it to malfunction?
Electrical grid?...Don't connect to the internet!
Transportation?....Don't connect to the internet!
Waterways?......... Is there a switch somewhere that you can flip and change the course of the Mississippi to east/west?
Probably not.But if there is, don't connect it to the internet!
Drinking water? Don't order Bottled water on the internet!
Railroads?...Don't connect to the internet!
Oil and gas...That's already being controlled my malicious types...No cyber security necessary.
Military?...No amount of security is gonna help there.
Governments?...All the foreign countries already have all the secrets they want.
So what's left?
Whatever it is don't connect it to the internet!
Cyber Security problem solved.
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water!
Why does anyone want to keep digging up the rotting corpse of Carrion?
Can we just move on? This is such a waste of good digital space.
Please no more...pretty please?
I add my 2 cents to that.
I like Math.
I like Pizza.
I don't like Pizza Hut!
They play games with their prices all the time and they make more mistakes at the register than any store I have ever been in.

One thing I learned about myself on "Dancing with the Stars" is how startlingly insecure I am about my body. I am thin enough, I suppose, but I know I am not as healthy as I can be. I felt clumsy and awkward among the svelte, swanlike figures of Jennifer and Brandi and Audrina – I am not 'in' my body as they seem to be, and my dancing was heavily influenced by that.
When you are dancing, you have to constantly look at yourself in the mirror, which I had great problems with. I don't look in the mirror much. I never have. I never watch myself perform, with the exception of when I am playing music, but then I am usually looking for mistakes I have made on guitar so I can correct them, or I am watching the other musicians. Having to watch myself and preparing for other people to watch me dance was nerve racking, not because I expected myself to be such a good dancer, but because I am so unaware and out of touch with my physical body, it was like I was having to power myself with a remote control with fading batteries. There was a tabloid story about how I was the obnoxious one backstage at DWTS, but I don't know who could have said this because frankly I never said a word backstage. I didn't speak at all because I was so terrified of having to be compared to the beautiful dancers next to me. One contestant and corresponding partner would say almost every taping, "Stop being so nervous!" which just made me feel worse.
What sucks is I danced beautifully in rehearsals whenever my wonderful partner Louis and I were alone, but this was completely frustrating because when we would get out on the ballroom floor I couldn't replicate it because I felt so weird about the way I looked. This hit me as so strange because I thought I had left all these physical insecurities and self doubt behind, but what truly happened was I was just in denial about how much self hatred I had left in me. Now I really need to let this go, not just for myself, but for everyone in my life, everyone who comes to see me perform, everyone who hears my voice and gets it and loves it. We need to feel good about ourselves, not just for competition shows or dance contests, but so we can truly live.
I started to regress into bad habits while DWTS training. I would put on my eating dress and panic-eat entire pizzas and boxes of chocolates. I have no problem eating this way to satisfy hunger, but I wasn't eating two whole pizzas and entire boxes of sees candy (large from Dominos with extra pepperoni, sausage – seriously along with one bite each of every chocolate in a big boxed assortment because of pickiness) because I was hungry. I wasn't hungry – because I was already eating these balanced meals we got for free so we wouldn't pass out from all the training – there was no starvation going on, that's for sure. I was eating because I was so scared all the time (golden oreos became my life). I could tell that this obsessive behavior wasn't about eating, it was about escape. My mouth would be all torn up from biting the insides of my cheeks, because I was so desperate to get the food down so fast I wasn't chewing properly. I was trying to run away into the cheese, into the caramel filling, into the creamy lard middle of the golden oreo. This was super scary.
I don't want to do this to myself anymore. I have been trying to eat healthier to get some sanity around food. I know that I am an addictive personality, especially when it comes to food, but you can't give up food like you can give up drugs and alcohol. We have to eat, so we have to face food and face it several times a day. I am making a commitment to myself to eat better and get into my body. I am trying to work out more, not to lose weight or get fit, but to get inside my skin. I did this briefly with bellydance and burlesque, but now DWTS has shown me I really need to get more committed to really living my life. I know it's just reality TV, but interestingly enough, it made my reality more real and I am changing my life for the better.
I will be back in the audience next week to cheer on the stars and their pro dancers, feeling radiant and confident and happy, knowing I will dance again another day. And though it was hard, I have fond memories of dancing on that floor. Although it unearthed a world of pain I didn't even know existed, there were moments where I have never felt so beautiful (especially in the gay pride rainbow flag dress).
I'd love to hear your stories about body issues like this. I need some help and guidance and support. Also I am getting physical trainers in every city on my tour, so if you do this for a living, I'd love to meet you!

Corey Hart Talks 'New' Version of 'Sunglasses at Night,' Stepping Away From Music + More [Exclusive]
Corey Hart's debut single 'Sunglasses at Night' was a monster hit in the early '80s. It catapulted the singer to massive superstardom and the song endures, beloved by generations of music fans for its titular hook.
Artists like Diddy and Nelly Furtado have requested permission to use the song and interpolate it. Hart wasn't interested in anyone chopping up his music and turned 'em all down…flat. Until production collective Papercha$er entered his life.
In 2012, Papercha$er approached Hart, offering him the opp to shape the track on his terms and 'Night Visions (Sunglasses)' was born.
Hart, who left active music making to raise his four children, continued to work, writing songs for Celine Dion and other artists. He will take the stage on May 31, 2014 – his birthday — and perform a marathon set at the Bell Centre in Montreal, his hometown. It'll be his first concert since 2002 and he plans to make it special, commemorating 30 years of music. "I'm gonna try and match Mr. Springsteen's legendary marathon sets," Hart said. "It's been over 12 years since my last concert. I wanna make this one last forever."
PopCrush nabbed some time with the '80s icon, who discussed why he finally allowed the song to be re-sculpted, a chance meeting with Bob Hope and some of his best memories from the period when he was atop the pop world.
You put a new spin on a classic song that had a distinct moment in time, one that certainly transported us back to a simpler time in life. What were your emotions after doing this new version of such an iconic track?
'Sunglasses at Night ' was my debut single in November 1983. Man....I was barely 20-years old when I wrote it. The track will always engender visceral emotions because it was my first hit out of the box introducing me to the world stage. I recorded the new vocals for 'Night Visions' in Barcelona, Spain. To be honest, this entire project has had an authentic karma-like destiny, as if it were all meant to play out this way some 30 years later. A new beginning for the next generation truly transporting my career full circle.
What was it about Papercha$er's proposal/version that REALLY got you on board with this, since you were adamant about not letting other artists interpolate the song? By the way, this version really sounds super fresh and current!
Hosh Gureli at Primary Wave Music, who manages Papercha$er, reached out to me over a year ago to explore the idea of doing an EDM version of 'Sunglasses at Night.' As you correctly alluded, I have turned down literally hundreds of offers -- including some from big music stars -- to have the song interpolated. Many versions have also been released on the Internet illegally, but there is little control I can reign in over this kind of piracy.
As a songwriter, I could never reconcile the creative concept of interpolation chop chop. It just never felt right to me. I heard some super remixes Papercha$er had worked on. It was obvious to my ear they were supremely talented in their genre. We all got on the phone to chat. I knew straight off these were nice dudes. I asked them, 'If we move forward, I'll need to have the creative freedom to interpolate myself.'
'Absolutely' was the reply. Sonically, these guys kill it. No way in the world would I ever have a bloody clue how to replicate or create their amazing sounds. But I was also excited about the possibilities of re-sculpting my original song with new lyrics, new melody lines and hopefully a razor sharp vocal!
For decades, I've harbored a Russian motif in the back of my mind. St. Petersburg, Russia where you can truly 'wear your sunglasses at night' during white night summer seasons. The sun sets at 3 AM or later!
I also wanted to make a symbolic statement about world solidarity, as I sense we are becoming even more polarized as time marches on. Music is powerful -- it has no boundaries. The universe is trying to tell us everybody needs to come together now rejoice solidarity. 'Antidote is in the venom when a snake bites / All you gotta do is love and stop the fight / Put up your poster shades alright / And always wear your sunglasses at night!'
You have an autobiography coming out next year -- can you give us a little scoop or insight on that?
Yes I do. It will be released the night of my concert at the Bell Centre in Montreal May 31, 2014. Scoop eh? Hmm, I'm not a bulls--ter. So the book will be 100% truthful with no cosmetics. It will cover the full scope of my life thus far. Honesty is a fundamental core value which I hold in the highest esteem. I have aways tried to teach a code of ethics to my kids and in turn endeavored to live my life by the same standards. I will not write anything which may hurt or slander another celebrity, although I have seen a lot.
What are some of your favorite memories from when 'Sunglasess' was a huge hit? Music and the industry have changed, but what are some of your greatest moments from that era?
My teenage dreams of being a famous singer-songwriter became reality during that wonderful summer of '84. My life was forever changed. I journeyed from being a relatively unknown opening act for artists like Rick Springfield and Hall and Oates to headlining my own arena tours by the time my second album was released in 1985, with the first single 'Never Surrender' topping the Billboard charts.
I was always humbled by my success. I tried my best to keep my feet firmly centered on the ground despite the surreal experiences of being a 'rock star.' One of the coolest memories from that era was when per chance I shared an elevator ride in a Minneapolis hotel with the iconic comedian Bob Hope. He looked over to me just as we hit the lobby, putting his arm across my shoulders and with a smile said, 'You're the kid with the sunglasses aren't you?' Sweet!

BMC Software's latest card in the application performance management (APM) market is best described as "a single operations management framework" for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and cloud apps.
Aiming to "anticipate and proactively address" app performance management requirements, BMC is somewhat predictably using the "360-degree view" tagline to describe its approach to app performance and end-user experience monitoring.
At a more granular layer, the company does specify that it is focused on the application, middleware, and infrastructure layers inside the data center.
"The ability to link a strong end-user experience monitoring platform with a solid behavior learning engine is particularly welcome to application support and IT operations teams," said Will Cappelli, research vice president at Gartner.
"A new generation of APM tools is emerging to address the increasingly complex, diverse, and dynamic computing infrastructures and applications in today's computing environments. Application performance monitoring solutions that feature proactive diagnostics, extensive analytics, and end-user experience monitoring provide the best resource for IT departments managing business-critical applications and environments," added Cappelli.
BMC is aiming to differentiate itself in the APM space with proactive problem detection based on behavioral learning. The backbone of BMC's current technology proposition is rapid problem diagnosis through advanced correlation of the end-user experience and continuous collection of deep diagnostics and transaction tracing data.
"Application performance, availability, and SLA adherence are the heart of business-critical computing success — especially for modern, composite applications that span distributed, mainframe, public and private cloud, or SaaS architectures, and are accessed via a variety of mobile devices," said Kia Behnia, chief technology officer for BMC.

Close to a third of all websites use Linux, according to W3Techs, and Linux system users are arguably second only to Mac users in their devotion to their platform of choice, yet Linux gamers have traditionally been the red-headed stepchildren of the gaming community.
Xbox 360 was the top-selling console for the 32nd straight month in August, NPD's video games sales figures indicate, while Nintendo's 3DS led hardware platform sales for the fourth month in a row.
"Linux on the desktop always has had a very small share compared to Windows, so most developers, and especially big companies, didn't care much for it," sighed Maxim Bardin, who founded Linux Gaming News.
'More and More Titles Are Coming'
"There is also the misconception that it's hard to develop for Linux, but such claims are usually made by non-Linux developers," Bardin told LinuxInsider. "In recent years, demand for Linux games has grown rapidly and -- with the help of the extremely popular game engine Unity, which makes it easy to port games to Linux -- more and more titles are coming to Linux."
Indeed they are, not least because Linux gaming was recently given perhaps the biggest boost yet when Valve announced plans to ship prototypes of its own, Linux-based game box, the Steam Machine.
Later this year, Valve will release 300 Steam boxes to beta users and seek their feedback. Testers can hack the boxes, install their own OSes on them or build their own boxes by purchasing their own components.
'Great for the Industry'
Hard on the heels of Valve's announcement, Nvidia promptly announced increased Linux driver support, with plans to provide documentation for the Nouveau project, which builds free drivers for its graphics cards.
"SteamOS is great for the industry, and we're very excited for Valve and for gamers," Nvidia spokesperson Brian Burke told LinuxInsider. "We're in favor of any initiative that promotes open-platform gaming and takes advantage of our market-leading Linux support."
AMD, meanwhile, released the new AMD Catalyst 13.11 Beta 1 video driver for Linux platforms. While the new release fixes some problems, it's also elicited some concern because it does not support anything later than Linux Kernel 3.10 and does not specify which build of that kernel it supports.
Be True to Your OS
In any case, it's clear that Linux gaming has survived and begun to flourish because of the devotion of the OS's fans.
There is a SteamLug Linux gaming channel at Freenode.net and there is the Linux Games database. There are several e-zines dedicated to Linux gaming, including Linux Gamecast and Linux Gaming News, and there's commercial Linux gaming site GamesOnLinux.com, which earlier this month updated its list of commercially available games for the OS.
Most of those games are, unsurprisingly, from Steam. They include PixelJunkMonsters Ultimate, Arma Tactics and Crusader Kings II.
Other games listed are KarBOOM, Mousecraft, Inverto, Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded and Tennis Elbow 2013.
GamesOnLinux.com also lists several crowdfunding projects for games including Crypt Run, Champions of Demah and Dungeon of Elements.
Several of these games run on Windows and Mac OS as well as Linux.
In fact, if developers avoid platform-specific code such as Microsoft DirectX APIs and use libraries that support all targeted OSes, making a Linux client for a game is not a problem, Bardin said. Otherwise, the porting costs might not cover the expenses.
Now, however -- with Valve's announcement of its Steam boxes -- Linux "will become more popular," Bardin predicted.
The Future of Linux Gaming
"Linux has been around for so long that you wonder what [Valve] are thinking, but it does serve their interest in that this is a FOSS OS that can be picked up by any OEM," Lewis Ward, a research manager at IDC, told LinuxInsider.
"What Valve is doing could have the potential not to work but, from my experience, they're very careful about how they go about doing what they do," Ward continued.
Valve's move is likely to encourage more emphasis on open development platforms, Jordan Cwang, managing editor and cohost of Linux Gamecast Weekly, told LinuxInsider.
There will be a "proliferation of PC manufacturers trying to get some of that sweet console cash, and more people will be making games as barriers to entry wither away," Cwang opined.
'A Library of Steam Games'
However, that does not mean console gamers will "suddenly jump ship to becoming PC gamers," contended Liam Callahan, an analyst at NPD.
"For the cross-section of gamers playing on both consoles and PCs, there could be more of a reason to defer to PC gaming with a 'box' or OS that optimizes PC gaming for the living room," Callahan told LinuxInsider.
"This would be especially true for those that have a library of Steam games just waiting to be played on their TV," he added.
The introduction of the Steam box could bring a shift in terms of the genre games that are popular on the PC, with family games that are typically reserved for consoles in the living room being played through a Steam box, Callahan suggested.
However, most PC gamers "already have a gaming rig that is capable of playing the games they want," Callahan noted. The market for Steam boxes will be PC gamers looking to buy a new PC who find Steam OS-enabled features attractive, he added -- if the price is right.

.comment: Disco Night at the Old Folks' Home
Reeling in the Years
Anyone who has ever moved probably has a few cardboard boxes where the contents are largely forgotten. And chances are every so often those boxes are mined in search of an item that one remembers having owned some time ago. Chances are, too, that the expedition is interrupted by encounters with things long forgotten.
Last week I dove into the boxes, looking for the shop manual for an ancient British Seagull outboard motor. Early in the process I found, of all things, a copy of the April 11, 1989 PC Magazine. I made the mistake of opening it (pausing for a second to consider that somewhere there is probably a talented youngster writing usable code for Linux who was not born when the magazine was published). Eleven years isn't a long time, except to the very young and the computer industry--which would be a redundant statement except that in 1989 PC Magazine considered the industry to be pretty well grown up and mature.
And in some ways it was, or else still isn't.
The magazine is shot through with screenshots of Windows (286 and 386--they were separate products then) and OS/2 Presentation Manager. Anyone who thinks the Linux desktop is primitive should see the sheer ghastliness of these early efforts to put a GUI atop DOS and its derivatives. Much of the magazine, in fact, is devoted to these two bright new hopes for the PC world: 'Is it too soon to switch to OS/2, as we all shall be doing eventually, with Borland's SideKick the only existing PM application? Will Windows ever be good for anything except a runtime environment for applications like the exciting new Corel Draw! 1.0?'
DOS Under Unix
It's easy to forget it, but in 1989 Unix was as old as DOS is now. And while I would have expected it in something like Byte, I was surprised to see two stories in PC Magazine having to do with Unix.
The first was a cover story that went on for 29 pages. It dealt with the fact that, now that there are cheap 80386 processors available, the PC is actually a useful Unix platform. But those upgrading from DOS wouldn't want to leave all those DOS applications behind--especially when Unix, with the proper utilities, could run several DOS apps at once, through the exciting new virtual 8086 mode available in these hot new chips.
The proper utilities were the subject of the story: VP/ix and Merge 386 were Unix applications (costing $1,395 and $1,595, respectively, for site licenses) that would create DOS environments under Unix. They would not, readers were warned, allow the use of applications that sought to use the 286 or 386 protected modes, nor would they tolerate nonstandard hardware calls. And performance of timing-sensitive applications--though in that more polite day they described it differently--sucked. But these DOS environments worked for the most part.
The chances are, at this very moment you have on your machine the programs DOSEMU and WINE. Both are still under development, especially the latter, but they work for the most part (the latter only some of the time, but it's getting better). And you would pay $1,395 or $1,595 for them only if you included the computer itself in the price--they come with most Linux distributions, and they're easily downloaded for free. It's funny, though, that a modern Unix/Linux publication could with no apologies whatsoever do a thoroughly modern piece on the current level of DOS support. All that has changed is the price.
(Then again, in 1989 you could pay close to $1,000 for a copy of Unix, though for $100 you could get Coherent, the Unix clone. Things cost more back then: an ATI EGA Wonder video card cost, at discount, $229; an external 2400 bps Hayes Smartmodem was a paltry $450; and for those whose storage needs had grown to insane proportions, a Seagate ST 251-1 40 MB MFM drive could be had for $448, cables and controller extra. Someone storing all the data for the government or something could buy a Priam 230 MB RLL drive for $1,975. Buying a 386-16 motherboard for your old PC, with a generous 1 meg of RAM aboard, would set you back a minimum of $1,500. And so on. I actually bought my first 386 machine a few months before the magazine appeared. I purchased it for $1,895 on--I'm not kidding--the Home Shopping Network. Not a bad deal, really, with its 40 MB Miniscribe 3053, two megs of memory which at that time was about $200/meg, and genuinely crappy CGA monitor, which I think is in one of those aforementioned boxes. It had a Motorola badge on the front, but when once I phoned Motorola tech support I heard puzzled sounds on the other end, and was passed from person to person, until I got to somebody who said to others in the room--I'm still not kidding--"Hey! Here's the guy who got the 386 that works!" Which it did for all of that year and most of the next; then it just died, kaput, questions neither asked nor answered.)

They rode into Cary, N.C., from all over – "young guns" looking to quench their thirst for knowledge, not to mention finding out what was happening with their money.
When they left town a couple of days later, they were more than satisfied that it was being put to good use. They got the low-down on ring spinning, dyeing and finishing of cotton fiber and even something called 3-D denim jeans. Good stuff. New stuff that would keep cotton competitive and profitable for them.
There would be no need to slap leather tonight.
All kidding aside, this wasn't your usual cotton producer tour of Cotton Incorporated's North Carolina research facility. The "Young Guns Tour" was for young cotton producers in their 20s and 30s, with long careers, perhaps even leadership roles, ahead of them. Most of them are already solid cotton producers, but perhaps still a little wet behind the ears when it comes to understanding the various organizations supporting the U.S. cotton industry.
Cotton market trying to find traction
"The national average median age of farmers is over 57," noted Brad Robb, vice president of communications for the Memphis-based Cotton Board. "The Young Guns Tour was created to show young cotton producers the global impact the (producer-funded) Cotton Research & Promotion Program makes on their behalf to keep their operations not only profitable but sustainable for the long term — while also hopefully shoring up their support for this program."
Mead Hardwick
For Mead Hardwick, son of Jay Hardwick, a Newellton, La., cotton producer and current chairman of Cotton Incorporated, the tour was another small step toward a return home to his father's operation after a stint in commercial real estate in Dallas, Texas.
"My wife and I are currently trying to unwind our existing careers in Dallas, but we're on a glide path (to get back to the farm) of anywhere between 12 months and 18 months."
Mead will be joined on the farm by his brother, Marshall, who currently is working on a master's degree in agronomy from Louisiana State University. "Hopefully, I'll be on the farm in the very near future," Mead said. "We want to work alongside Dad for as long as we can."
Mead and Marshall grew up on their father's farm, "so we're very closely related to the industry," Mead said. "When I move back home, I'm going to get more hands-on from an ownership perspective. I want to be involved from beginning to end. We're looking forward to that and the lifestyle that brings."
Mead said the Cotton Incorporated tour "was something I really wanted to do to find out where our dollars go and to understand what the program does for the industry as a whole, to learn what this organization is all about.
"Obviously it's very first class. It's a really professional organization and they're really out there championing the cause of cotton. It's important to have that voice. That's what has resonated with me, knowing that there is a spokesman for our industry."
Hardwick and his wife, Felicia, have one son, William Mead Hardwick Jr., who just turned 2, and another son on the way.
Wren Felts
Wren Felts farms about 2,000 acres of cotton, rice, milo and soybeans with his father, Benton, and grandfather, Don, near Joiner, Ark. He said his father participated in a Cotton Incorporated tour 15 years ago and again this February. "He told me how interesting it was and how much I would learn. The cotton industry is changing every day. You have to keep up."
After listening to a research presentation one morning, Felts said, "I didn't know so many big names were involved in cotton, like Under Armor and its Charged Cotton product. That was amazing to me."
Felts said the tour drove home the fact that synthetic fibers are cotton's biggest competitive threat. "It's not just other countries, weeds and pests. It's trying to get cotton marketed right."
David Taylor
David Taylor farms a 5,500-acre row crop operation along with 400 head of cattle, around Como, Miss., with his father, Sledge. He wasn't sure if he could afford to leave the farming operation this month, "but my wife, Allison, and I decided it was only two days, we could spend some time together, and we could learn a little about the cotton industry."
The tour "stimulated me to ask questions that I've often thought about in the past. For example, we get docked for high micronaire. I want the mill to show me why. I want to see the complications that arise from that and things like high leaf content."
Like so many other older generation farmers, Taylor's father did not want his son to work on the farm, citing the extreme risk of farming. As a result, David worked in the West for a few years before returning home.
"Dad had three sons, and I was the one who really always loved to farm. It just feels like what I'm supposed to do. I thought about aviation. I have my pilot's license. But I've always loved farming."
David and Allison have a 20-month old son, David Sledge Taylor Jr., who they call Sledge.
David Crump
David Crump, who farms dryland and irrigated cotton, south of Ralls, Texas, around the edge of the Caprock, said of the tour, "I had to drop everything to come, but I knew it would be interesting.
"To me, being a non-profit organization, I didn't realize how much Cotton Incorporated was doing to create profits. They are definitely using the money for our benefit. It's not just a dollar-a-bale going out the window. It's going to help us and keep cotton strong."

Phil Mickelson gave direct input to legendary Callaway wedge maker Roger Cleveland, and they worked closely together on this design.
They took a Mack Daddy 2 Wedge and grinded out the high toe shape, added the right materials, and had Phil constantly test it on Tour until the look and performance were exactly what he wanted.
This design lets you accelerate through the ball and go after every shot. You can get up and down from anywhere - even on flops, bunker shots, and out of the thickest rough. It has more surface area, 39% more groove area that goes all the way across the face, and the high toe moves the weight higher so that it's easier to hit shots out of deep rough.
Call Andrew Morris Golf now on 028 90430888 for further information on the PM Grind wedge or arrange a custom fit appointment on our TrackMan Launch Monitor to ensure we get the right gapping for your bag.

Microsoft wants to buddy up to Black Hat attendees by discussing its new Exploitability Index.
A Better View of Microsoft Security? - InternetNews
There's also the community-driven Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP) that gives advance notice on vulnerabilities and upcoming patches to partners. Does this mean good-bye to the finger pointing among software vendors after a disastrous patch?The new exploitability index will supplement the patch Tuesday announcement with a new metric that will help users understand the risks that a given vulnerability may pose.
In order to gauge risk, Microsoft will detail with the exploitability index, whether or not exploit code exists or is likely to exist for a given vulnerability. The general idea is to help Microsoft customers to prioritize the importance of updates based on their likelihood of being exploited.
...Reavey explained that Microsoft will look at classifying vulnerabilities into three broad buckets. The first bucket will be highly exploitable vulnerabilities where Microsoft is of the opinion that exploit code that will work consistent is likely to be released inside of the first 30 days of the Microsoft patch being made available. The second bucked is if there is the possibility of an inconsistent exploit code that being produced that might work some of the time. The third bucket will identify vulnerabilities for which Microsoft believes it is unlikely that exploit code will be released inside of 30 days.
