Armando Salguero: Business decisions of Miami Marlins' Jeffrey Loria will haunt all of MLB
The Marlins, yawn, are home again this week.
And as we continue to ignore the National League leaders in losing, the thought occurs that the disease fire sale arsonist Jeffrey Loria has wrought upon South Florida might be spreading.
There's no doubt that Loria's reprehensible crashing of the Marlins has caused fans to ignore the team by the thousands. The club's intermittent closing of the upper deck at Marlins Park is only one indication baseball fans routinely are turning their backs on Loria's scandalous approach to team ownership.
But the fear here is that while South Florida baseball fans wait for Loria's already-too-long ownership plague to pass, baseball itself might be harmed by the disregard.
If rather than going to games or watching on TV or listening on radio, parents are teaching their kids to ignore the Marlins and baseball altogether, the damage Loria is doing to the sport won't be contained to his team alone.
Baseball as a sport will be injured.
The truth is that while the Marlins are being ignored, kids are growing up learning to think about anything but baseball. They're not monitoring the other teams in the National League East. They're not comparing the statistics opposing players are posting with those of their Miami favorites.
The kids who could be growing up as potential Marlins fans are having their sporting interests decided by a fan boycott. The boys of summer for those kids are just as likely to be the Heat until June or the Dolphins when training camp opens in July.
So the local baseball team is effectively driving fans to other sports.
Commissioner Bud Selig must be proud.
The practice of baseball for the average fan is not conducted on a diamond but in the stands and the boxscore and the standings. And many people who have decided to ignore the Marlins because Loria has offended their sensibilities are no longer practicing at all.
So it's not just the Marlins who are being ignored. Baseball is being somewhat ignored.
What does that mean anecdotally?
It means some people down here probably aren't aware that White Sox pitcher Chris Sale has won three of his past four outings and just threw a one-hitter. We're too busy seething over a Marlins fire sale to notice Sale is on fire.
It means that perhaps the final season by the greatest reliever in major-league history is passing without our undivided attention.
Mariano Rivera has converted all 15 of his save opportunities this year.
He's doing it at age 43. He's doing it after missing most of last season with a knee injury. He's doing it, as always, with one pitch.
This is the last time Rivera will do this because he's retiring after the season. How many local fans are missing this because Loria forced them to stop paying attention to baseball this year?
The Rangers are winning without a big-time home run threat in their lineup. The Yankees are winning without four All-Stars in their lineup. The Indians are winning without a true ace on their pitching staff. (Zach McAllister? Justin Masterson? Really?)
Meanwhile, the Angeles, Dodgers and Blue Jays are interesting because they promised so much and are delivering so little.
All of this is bound to get more compelling as the summer warms up.
And yet, in South Florida, it's likely to fade from the periphery as the Marlins sink deeper in the standings and more people turn from the sport.
Sure, the people who live here and are lifelong Yankees, Cubs, Phillies and Red Sox fans are still paying attention. Those folks were indoctrinated long ago and are invested in their teams and the game.
The scores of children growing up here now? If they invest in the game at all, they might just join that standing army of Yankees, Cubs and Red Sox fans.
An optimist might argue the Marlins will actually garner more attention in the coming weeks because maybe Henderson Alvarez and Nathan Eovaldi and Giancarlo Stanton will get healthy enough to help the team.
Can we please remember we're not talking about Mark Teixeira, Curtis Granderson and Derek Jeter getting back in the lineup? We're really talking about youngsters getting a chance to play well enough so they can be traded for future prospects.
That's not the way to run a baseball team. That's how you set up flight transfers.
That's how you hurt an entire sport.

The financial downturn resulted in significantly reduced manufacturing and momentary plant stoppages by many of the Unique Gear Producers (OEMs). The supply chain was unable to profit from efficiencies of periodic stoppage and needed to function inefficiently at ranges drastically beneath means. This has been incredibly disagreeable for most corporations major to shop flooring redundancies, despite the fact that businesses did attempt harder than in earlier recessions to evade a cull and retain as a lot of men and women as feasible utilising imaginative solutions to lower employment costs these as shorter hrs, sabbaticals, short-term wage/wage cuts and pension freezes. Whereas creation was hit badly, R&D ongoing to operate with minimum reductions in workers albeit with a freeze on additional extra recruitment.
Producers right now are burdened by high labour prices, expanding raw supplies prices and the fixed risk of worldwide opposition. Supplied the current state of the general financial system, makers have to adopt steady development strategies that expand creation throughput by reducing creation and reducing idle & misplaced time in production. To this extent, all elements of this must be reviewed.

FCBD Interview: Writer Nate Cosby Discusses New Cow Boy Release
May 02, 2012
Gold sponsor, Archaia Entertainment, presents fans with a 48-page full-color original anthology hardcover on this year's Free Comic Book Day. Filled with all new material, Nate Cosby (Pigs) and Chris Eliopoulos (Franklin Richards) will be offering Cow Boy, a comedy/western that tells the tale of a young bounty hunter determined to send his entire outlaw family to jail.
Here Writer Nate Cosby gives readers a brief synopsis of Cow Boy, chats about his favorite childhood comics and tells us where we can find him on Free Comic Book Day 2012.
FCBD: Set your project up for those that might be new to your comic book. What can we expect to see in terms of story and art?
Nate Cosby (NC): Cow Boy is the tale of Boyd Linney, a 10-year-old bounty hunter determined to round up his entire outlaw family. It's written by me, and drawn by Chris Eliopoulos. The art is purposefully simplistic yet gritty, intended to draw in an all-ages audience, then introduce them to a more sophisticated emotional journey.
FCBD: What has been your favorite part of book or character to tackle?
(NC): I really enjoy writing Boyd, putting myself in his boots and figuring out what makes him tick. He's just a kid, but he's put this huge burden on himself for no other reason than he thinks it's the right thing to do. I'm emotionally invested in seeing what happens to him on his journeys.
FCBD: Tell our readers why they should pick your book first on FCBD.
NC: Archaia is the ONLY company giving you a HARDCOVER book absolutely FREE for FCBD! Chris and I made an exclusive Cow Boy story for the book, and we're honored to be included among such great Archaia creators and properties: Mouse Guard by David Petersen, Rust by Royden Lepp, Dapper Men by Jim McCann & Janet K. Lee, Labyrinth by Ted Naifeh & Cory Godbey, and Cursed Pirate Girl by Jeremy Bastian. That's a LOT of good story for zero money.
FCBD: What's your favorite part about being able to work in comics?
NC: It'll always be the creation and collaborative process, making something with a team of people that share a vision. Comics is such a unique medium, and there's nothing more fun (and frightening!) for me than sitting down with a blank page, knowing I need to fill it up.
FCBD: Many newcomers will be picking up comics for the first time on FCBD—what was the first comic you remember reading?
NC: I was a big Superman and Batman kid growing up. So it was probably one featuring them.
FCBD: Where will you be for this year's FCBD? Do you have any annual FCBD traditions?
NC: This year I'll be signing all day at Mile High Comics in Lakewood, Colorado, beginning at 11am. Pretty excited, this is my first year actually doing a signing on FCBD.
FCBD: Looking to the future of the book, is there anything you can tease about what's coming?
NC: Cow Boy: A Boy & His Horse will be out in May at comic shops and most bookstores. You can check out four chapters totally free at cowboycomic.net, and order if you like what you see. The hardcover also features short stories by Roger Langridge (Muppet Show, Thor The Mighty Avenger), Colleen Coover (Spider-Man), Mike Maihack (Cleopatra In Space) and Brian Clevinger/Scott Wegener (Atomic Robo). Pick it up, this book is just the beginning. Boyd Linney's got justice on his mind, and a big family to take down...
Be sure to visit Freecomicbookday.com often to check out previews of this year's books and to learn more about the creators involved. You can also follow all the latest FCBD news on Facebook and Twitter.

Want to keep more money in your wallet where it belongs? Here's how to avoid common money leaks that could cost you thousands.
No one likes spending any more money than they have to, but sometimes it seems that money drains faster from your bank account than it comes in. And as the unnecessary expenses add up, your bank balance continues to drop no matter what time of year it is.
But it doesn't have to be that way. With a little bit of common sense and forward thinking, you can avoid a huge range of common money leaks all year round. Our top tips below will help your bank balance stay at an optimal level in summer, winter and any other time of year.

Plan ahead for holidays
There's nothing like a holiday to allow you to explore exciting new adventures, or to simply recharge your batteries and catch up on some "me time". Unfortunately, holidays don't come cheap, especially if they are spur-of-the-moment getaways.
One way to save money on your travel expenses is to plan ahead. Booking flights and accommodation is a whole lot cheaper three months before your planned departure than three days before, and booking in advance gives you the chance to shop around for the best deals. Take advantage of sales and discount offers for a holiday that you will love and remember for ever, but that will also be much more affordable.
How to plan your finances for your next trip.
Be energy-efficient (and water-wise)
Rent or mortgage repayments aside, utility bills represent one of the largest ongoing expenses most Australians have to budget for. Electricity, gas, water – if you've ever added up the total amount you spend on power and water each year, the overall cost may surprise you.
This is why it makes excellent financial sense to make your home as energy-efficient as possible. One of the best times to do this is during winter, when heating costs and those lovely long showers can see power bills skyrocket. On the other hand, the costs of keeping an air conditioner running all summer long can also put a dent in your hip pocket.
Cut down on your electricity and water usage wherever you can, be it by taking shorter showers, wearing warmer clothes or simply remembering to turn off all lights and appliances when not in use. Making smart choices when selecting appliances and ensuring that you choose the most water- and energy-efficient options can also lead to big savings in the long-term.
As well as this, proper insulation will help your home stay warm in winter and cool in summer, allowing you to cut down on heating and cooling costs.
Dine in, not out
This is another great money-saving idea that you can put into practice all year round. Sure, dining out is delicious and can be a wonderful social occasion, but doing it several nights a week can have a big impact on your budget. As well as the cost of meals, you also have to pay for wine, corkage, a tip and transport costs, so even a relatively cheap meal can put a big dent in your budget.
Eating in means you don't have to worry about transport or designated drivers, you can improve your own culinary skills and you can rest assured that the dish you want will always be on the menu.
Make your own coffee
Have you ever sat down and worked out how much money you spend on coffee each year? Assuming you buy two cups a day at $4 each, that's $56 a week and $2,912 a year, which is a hell of a lot to spend on coffee.
So why not consider cutting back on your coffee spend whenever possible? You could make your own with a plunger or a capsule machine, or keep it simple with instant coffee. Or, for a cheaper alternative to bought coffee, some of the coffee options available from service stations are pretty cheap and don't taste terrible.

Lower your goals
It's natural to want the best in life, but if getting the best in life comes at the expense of your financial security then it's time to rethink your spending strategies. For example, while a 55-inch plasma TV would be perfect for watching the footy finals, would you really notice all that much difference if you chose a cheaper 42-inch instead?
Or, in another example, while a top of the line iPhone 6S might have all the bells and whistles, might getting a much cheaper iPhone 5 or 5C be a better option for your budget?
If you lower your spending ambitions and adopt a more realistic approach, you'll stop unnecessarily leaking funds from your account.
School holiday savers
Entertaining a couple of kids during the school holidays is a big challenge, not only for every parent's patience, but also for their bank balance. Sure, there are plenty of entertainment options on offer for teens, tweens and under-tens, but not all of them can be described as affordable. In fact, according to the finder.com.au School Holiday Spending Report, Australian families fork out almost $600 to cover the cost of school holiday fun.
This is where you need to put all of your bargain-hunting skills to good use. From school holiday camps and classes to trips to the movies, it's important to shop around for the most affordable option. For example, are there cheap school holiday movie sessions for kids under the age of 16? Is there a similar camp nearby that offers the same experiences but for a cheaper fee?
Compare your choices thoroughly so that you can make an informed decision.
Find free fun
Looking for some fun things to do with the family but that won't cost the earth? Well, there are plenty of great activities that you can do at any time of the year that are entirely free.
Australia in summer is a paradise for anyone who loves spending time outdoors. Head to the beach for a swim and a sunbathe, have a picnic in the park or strap on some shoes and go for a bushwalk. Australia's great outdoors are just waiting to be explored, and you often won't have to pay a cent to get amongst it.
You may not be so keen to head outside when the mercury drops over winter, but there's still plenty of free family fun to be had at home. Have a TV show marathon – it's cheaper than the movies – play some board games or just curl up with a good book.
Be a smart shopper
You can save a substantial amount of money if you shop for certain products and services at the right time of year. Let's take clothing as an example. Buying your threads out of season, for example, looking for your summer swimsuit during autumn or winter, can save you a lot of money.
At the same time, it's also worth remembering that specific items tend to go on sale at certain times of year. For example, if you want a new car, the end of the financial year is the perfect time to start hunting around for a bargain.
By doing a little research and finding out when sales occur and when the best time to buy is, you can save yourself a whole lot of money. And if you keep this and our other money-saving tips in mind, your bank balance can stay in great shape all year round.

Now for the real fun for level 57+ druids. The red dots are spawn locations, the blue lines are regular paths.
Getting here alone is tricky. Coming out of the DSP zone, make sure you have SoE and invis yourself. Run straight east, going south of the undead house, where the four-arms and Xi Vius are found. Now, as you run along this building, there are booby traps in the ground, just like in The Gray, where when you run over the trigger a mob will spawn. The Vampire Bat is around level 55 but it won't see you. The Reanimated Drudge, which is also level 55 and undead, can see you. Some times you get lucky if you are moving fast and they won't see you or they don't agro in time before you get out of range.
I prefer to med up on the north wall behind the lake. It's marked clearly on the map above. There is a patrol path for one of the toilers but it won't come near you if you are far enough away. This is where I go to med and camp out, if needed.
Quadding in this zone is add city. You will have toilers on your case all the time, or possible drudges or wolves. If you do, root them and just leave them there. When you are done quadding, camp out and clear agro. I've left as many as three toilers behind while quadding.
That's assuming you are along. You rarely will be. If there's at least one more wizard or druid quadding, you will have plenty to kill but not enough to train you, and often times if I get an add I don't want, I send a tell to the other quadder offering them my add. Some times people go there with groups. They often set up shop directly south of the lake. I also offer them my adds, which they usually take. Root it near them and go on with your business.
This is one zone where you can't really map out the quad paths, due to the constant adds. In TD, CS or EW, it's easy. Geography dictates your path. Here, though, things are wide open and there are roamers everywhere. The ones that spawn to the north walk south and the ones that spawn to the south walk north. If they spawn to the east they walk west, and vice versa. The end result is you never quad the same way twice.
The safest spot, and usually I work my way there, is the area between the lake and the north wall, just below my med spot. When I have my four, I work my way there. That way I get as far from the spawn spots and roamers as possible.
Although the map doesn't show it, the region between the eastern wall of the undead house and the lake has a big hill bisecting it. Hills = bad for quadding. You can't see your target and often get surprised by a roamer. I stick to the right (east) side of the hill, near the lake. The left side is dangerous because it will have roamers and if you get too close to the wall, you will agro an Xi, which you don't want.
With KEI, I finish a quad with 33% mana left. Without KEI, I tend to finish OOM. These guys are tough, they run REAL fast and hit extremely hard. You want to have the following spells
You definitely need gate here. The zones are too far and you can't get to them quickly. The Toilers are great exp, around 2% of regular exp at 60 or 3-4% in AA. Their only valuable drop is the Centi Shortsword, which sells for around 500pp in the Bazaar.

Every birthday and Christmas I am asked what would I like, I usually respond with not much at all, I tend to buy things myself if I want them. Only recently I realised that that was a lie, I often find things I really really want but don't buy because it's not financially logical to waste money on this or that. Here is the latest stuff I really really really want!
I have wanted a wiz bang new camera for ages but now that my current camera has basically carked it, I want a wiz bang camera even more. I was lucky enough to take my mum's reasonably wiz bang camera to Thailand recently and now I don't want to travel again until I can get my own wiz bang camera, my current one is six years old and pretty dated plus I need sticky tape to hold it together! So please Alex or some present fairies buy me a wiz bang camera!!
I also reasonably desperately would like a video camera, I hate to think of all the awesome moments passing us by that haven't been caught on video. Although a camera is my first priority, when little kidlets come to the scene down the track I must have a video camera. And with a decent handful of nieces and nephews now I could really do with a video camera already.
OMG who wouldn't love to have these earrings? as well as every other pair form downthatlittlelane.com.au. They have some of the greatest earrings I have ever seen. Not to mention pretty much everything else that they sell. Finally, something on my must have list that wont cost thousands of dollars!
I have wanted a KitchenAid Mixer since I was a little girl and who knew they had a hot pink one? Now I want one even more. One day I will own a KitchenAid Mixer as well as the awesome pasta attachment.
Okay so I think I have determined that I have expensive tastes, no wonder I never have any present ideas when people ask! Let my aim be to post again with cheaper must haves.
Talk soon,

Many cosmonauts flown and unflown are buried near where they live. 26 in the cemetery near Star City. Some in central Moscow.
There are key dates mainly the 12 April Cosmonautics Day. I have had the privilege to lay flowers on that day at the Kremlin Wall and it means a lot.
There are web sites in Russia which have a lot of the graves of Soviet and Russian Space cosmonauts and designers.

We were also in Red Square and trying to make out the Kremlin Wall plaques commemorating Gagarin and Komarov, but stern guards keep you about 30 metres away from the wall, and when I asked a couple if they could point out Gagarin's plaque they didn't seem to know, even though they understood my query, and just shrugged their shoulders.

Imagine my joy opening my mail to this!
Martha, you have done it again: The cover is beautifully simple with paper that is slick yet soft and a raised edge on the quilt so you can feel the binding...love that. You would never imagine the amount of beauty contained within such a portable size.
The THIRTEEN WAYS OF LOOKING AT A BLACKBIRD exhibit was not what I expected. Not being a big bird fan myself (although I do love Big Bird:), I was pleasantly surprised by all the variations on a theme and how the artists brought themselves to it. The lesson being that even when you aren't excited about a subject matter, there is still appreciation for the process to be had if you open yourself up to it.
Annemieke Mein's nature work is exquisite in spite of looking at bugs.
Katherine K. Allen's process really intrigues and excites me. In my mind I would love this process but reality is that I am too weird about getting dirty to be out collecting nature:)
Dottie Moore- First of all, I so love and admire the beauty of trees, and in Dottie's skillful hands their textural beauty is mesmerizing.
Nancy G Cook- I have followed Nancy's work for a few years now and am always in awe of the seemingly simple beauty she brings to cloth.
Thank you again, Martha, for a must have for any library especially anyone enthralled with the wonder of nature. Thank you artists for your continued push for excellence.

Both "Arrow" and "The Flash" are currently carrying the burden of having to function as their own respective entities and set up "Legends Of Tomorrow," which is an unfair place for both shows. "The Flash" is inherently more nimble at this point, and can throw in the occasional TWELVE-FOOT SHARK BEAST THING to bring the wow factor. But "Arrow" is still coming off a monstrously ill-conceived third season and trying to figure out its own new voice at the same time it's bringing Sara Lance and Ray Palmer back from the dead to be part of the upcoming spin-off.
Still, the fourth season of "Arrow" has been a marked improvement over last season, which is admittedly a backhanded compliment at face value. But it's still back well beyond simply being "watchable," and I'm hoping that once Sara and Ray are sent off on their merry, time-traveling ways, the pieces are in place for a solid season. Sure, it's a blast to see Matt Ryan tonight returning as John Constantine: He's great in the role, and was infinitely better than "Constantine" the show itself was. But honestly, I think I enjoyed Laurel Lance dressing down Oliver Queen's mansplaining more than any DC mythology on display in tonight's episode. It's a long time coming, and suggests that "Arrow" understands its lead character can be a blowhard. That goes a long way towards tolerating his a-holeness when it occurs. After all, if the show thinks he's being heroic when in fact he's demeaning every character around him, especially the female ones, then that's a huge freakin' problem.
Having Constantine around to help Sarah get her soul back is conveniently plotting, but having him sense the Emperor Palpatine-levels of evil emanating off of Damien Darhk goes a long ways towards setting up the impossible odds that Green Arrow Inc face this season. He's a man who faces demons on the regular, and yet Constantine is advising Oliver to pack up and move out. Darhk is a scary dude. He's not as scary as Diggle's helmet, but he's scary all the same. You would think it would be hard for the show to top having Ra's al Ghul, a top-tier DC baddie. And yet, the execution there was so bad that Darhk feels like a step up in terms of overall danger, and not just to my spellcheck. (Having Neal McDonough in the lead role doesn't exactly hurt, either.)
Now that Sara is done busting through walls like the female assassin equivalent of the Kool-Aid mascot, we're still left with a show slowly regaining its feet. I don't think Season 2 of "Arrow" will ultimately be the aberration that the second season of "Sons Of Anarchy" proved to be, but I also don't think there's any guarantee that the show will reach those heights again, either. So long as The CW is into world-building and cross-show pollination, it will be hard for any one entity to be its best self. "The Flash" has entire other Earth from which to pull new stories. "Arrow" has a lot of baggage, and while fighting to redeem one's past is baked into the show's DNA, it's yet to see how much that will work for the show itself. But I'll be watching to see if it does, which is a huge testament to how far the show has come since nearly losing me as a viewer forever with its third-season finale.

Traditional exams can be extremely loud which may increase patient anxiety. With SilentWorks, patients are exposed to an ambient level of noise which helps them relax, reduces movement and improves their overall experience.
SilentWorks is available across all anatomies and can be done with multiple weightings and coils, including DWI. Zero TE techniques enable imaging in vasculature structures with less artifacts that are commonly seen on traditional scans. And with new enhancements like 3D Silenz and PROPELLER MB, your exam time is shortened without compromise.

Research Findings Blog
Developing Messages That Work
"...after hearing what we have talked about, I think maybe I should let them make decisions and involve them... Maybe they will enjoy eating more.
~Mom, Dallas in response to child feeding messages
[The recipes are] very useful...I like simple cooking...so I was like, hmm, I'd like to try that...
~Mom, Raleigh in response to whole grain tips and recipes
A large proportion of the participants in the federal nutrition assistance programs are mothers and children. Because mothers have tremendous influence over their children's food environments and eating behaviors, FNS has identified them as a high-priority audience for nutrition interventions. The Core Nutrition Messages support these efforts by providing audience-tested messages, tips, and other resources that are relevant, accurate, and easy-to-read. Our research shows that these materials resonate with moms, tap into their emotions, and engage their children in learning about healthy eating.
An Audience-Focused, Collaborative Approach
Input from program stakeholders, focus groups, and ongoing consultation with an expert workgroup guided the development of the messages, tips and communication tools.
Input from the Field
The Core Nutrition Message Workgroup consisted of experts in nutrition education, communications, program partners and staff. The workgroup provided their expertise and insights from practice throughout the two year development period. Feedback was also obtained from practitioners in the field at key points in the process.
Focus Groups with Mothers and Children
A total of 48 focus groups were held in six cities around the country. Participants were mothers and children with household incomes within 185% of poverty level. Over 75% of the mothers and children participated in one or more nutrition assistance programs. Mothers shared information about their perceptions, beliefs, understanding and concerns regarding whole grains, milk, and child feeding. They also provided feedback on the messages and communication concepts and related materials that helped to shape the final products. For more insight about the research behind the messages, sign up for alerts about new posts. For more details about the development of these messages and findings from the earlier consumer research, see pages 6-15 of Maximizing the Message, the implementation guidebook.

Advertorial/Sponsored Post
I have just started breathing after our hectic summer, and I am out to have some serious, well-deserved fun! Moreover, with the UP System and other universities' change of academic calendar (first semester will commence in August pa!), beaches and other vacation spots are not expected to be empty anytime soon.
So I was really glad when Banana Peel sent me and Raviv wonderful presents:
Matching flip-flops for Raviv and me, plus a foot pampering kit! Even Little Big Ravivo got excited!
Too bad the flip-flops were already too small for him. But still, I'm sure some lucky child will be happy to receive these flip-flops in the future.
The entire summer, I had to wear heels while teaching. While the heels make my legs slimmer and make me taller, heels also torture me. #AlamNatinYan. I guess these heels are part of the reason why I got spider veins and varicose veins. I was actually looking forward to when my feet would be liberated from them. Of course, Raviv and I have old flip-flops. Problem was that our bull mastiffs munched them! Eeeeep!
So imagine my relief when Banana Peel sent us gifts…and my utter delight when I saw how pretty our new flip-flops were!
They were so pretty that I took time off to get some serious feet pampering (something I kept delaying for almost two months!)
Plus, I can help maintain them through the foot pampering kit also by Banana Peel!
Here are more details about this proudly Pinoy brand:
With its [Banana Peel's] latest designs right at your tippy toes, all you would ever really have to say is: BRING IT. The proudly homegrown brand is sure to turn heads as you frolic into the best season ever with your environmentally-friendly flip flops that is being distributed in 9 other countries worldwide. This is all about having the experience of a lifetime! This is all about you.
The brand has expanded its styles to cater to all different tastes and adventures; you definitely wouldn't want to miss out. Funky, trendy; plains and prints; there is just too many to choose from. And who says one is ever enough for the fashion-forward you? Banana Peel flip flops are specifically tested to last for years, and you can walk on it for hours on end and still be feet-ache free! Plus, you wouldn't have to pay for too much because the brand believes in creating products worth your every penny.
In December 2013, Banana Peel just released the first collection of flip flops for WWF Philippines. These statement flip flops are designed not just to make people aware of the current environmental situations present but actually enable citizens to participate in WWF's advocacy. For every pair of flip flops sold from the Men's and Ladies' Marine Life collection, part of the proceeds go into funding marine conservation programs to help save our seas!
In line with our country's current It's More Fun in the Philippines tourism campaign, Banana Peel has tied up with the Department of Tourism to come up with a line of slippers highlighting the essence of Pinoy fun. Famous tourist destinations like Bohol, Boracay, and Cebu plus daily Filipino activities like commuting and merienda time are all incorporated in these witty slipper collections.
So, pro-Mother-Earth? Check! Stylish and comfortable? Double check! Value for money? Check (and keep that extra)! Indulging in your lifestyle while Banana Peel flip flops take care of your feet will never, ever be a dull experience.
There are plenty more fashionable designs to choose from! To see these photos and get notifications about Banana Peel, follow it via its website, or through its social networking sites:

At a town meeting in Middleborough, residents voted 183-50 to approve a proposal from the police chief to impose the penalty.
Officials insist the proposal was not intended to censor casual or private conversations, but instead to crack down on loud, profanity-laden language used by teens and other young people in the downtown area and public parks.
"I'm really happy about it," Mimi Duphily, a store owner and former town selectwoman, said after the vote. "I'm sure there's going to be some fallout, but I think what we did was necessary."
Ms Duphily, who runs an auto-parts store, is among the downtown merchants who wanted to take a stand against the kind of swearing that can make customers uncomfortable.
"They'll sit on the bench and yell back and forth to each other with the foulest language. It's just so inappropriate," she said.
The measure could raise questions about constitutional free speech rights, but state law does allow towns to enforce local laws that give police the power to arrest anyone who "addresses another person with profane or obscene language" in a public place.
Matthew Segal, legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts, said the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the government cannot prohibit public speech just because it contains profanity.
The ordinance gives police discretion over whether to ticket someone if they believe the cursing ban has been violated.
Middleborough, a town of about 20,000 residents, has had a bylaw against public profanity since 1968. But because that bylaw essentially makes cursing a crime, it has rarely if ever been enforced, officials said, because it simply would not merit the time and expense to pursue a case through the courts.
The ordinance would decriminalise public profanity, allowing police to write tickets as they would for a traffic violation. It would also decriminalise certain types of disorderly conduct, public drinking and marijuana use, and dumping snow on a roadway.

The best way to describe WipEout Pulse is as a marriage between two of my favorite franchises: Mario Kart and F-Zero. I know this sounds a little awkward, but let me explain. F-Zero is a futuristic racing series that is pretty fun. The only trouble with this series is that most people find it way too difficult to play, and most F-Zero titles seem inaccessible to most average gamers. That is where the Mario Kart comes in. Mario Kart is known for its approachable and fun gameplay. This marriage may seem a little strange at first, but once the awkward phase is through you'll find yourself rather addicted to the joy that is WipEout Pulse.
Much like the other WipEout games, WipEout Pulse has a vast array of ways to play. The main mode of the game features different "grids," which represent subsequently more difficult tracks. You have four main levels, each with their own racing teams and stages. Tracks are shared between the different levels, but because there are so many different ways to play the tracks don't seem repetitive. Tracks also feature boost pads and special weapons that you can pick up. The weapons selector is generic and completely random (much like the question boxes in Mario Kart), and you never know whether you'll get a short supply of mines or a giant laser that zaps the energy out of your opponents.
Gameplay, as I mentioned before, is very accessible for a futuristic racer. That is not to say, however, that this game is easy. The game features speeds up to 700 MPH and tracks with steep hairpin turns. You'll probably have to play through different levels multiple times before you get the hang of each level. But once you learn how to take the turns and find where all the different power-ups are, you'll master the different courses in no time.
WipEout Pulse also features several different ways to race to keep the gameplay engaging. Of course you have your straight-up races where you and up to seven other opponents vie for the top spot. These races are probably the most exhilarating because you need a combination of speed and weaponry for success. But as fun as this mode may be, even I can admit it is a little generic. The most novel of the new modes is a survival type mode where your car is constantly upgrading speed levels and you have to clear different course "zones" and see how far and how fast you can survive.
Another hallmark of WipEout Pulse's gameplay is its speed class system. This system features different race teams that can race at different speeds. Although this might sound a little weird, it is surprising how much the different speed classes change the gameplay. When you are racing with a very high speed class, weapons become unimportant, and aggressive driving becomes a moot pursuit. But when you're driving in a slower speed class, the opposite becomes true. In order to speed past the competition, you will have to drive aggressively and utilize all your boost and weaponry power to your advantage.

The simple reality is that is the amount of time it takes all of the city entities that need to prepare for the event. We have heard rumors (of new ownership), but we have not issued a permit, nor processed an application from a new sponsor group. —Art Raymond, spokesman for Mayor Ralph Becker.
SALT LAKE CITY — The Salt Lake Marathon has a new owner.
And while the man who started the event says that ensures this year's race will not only be held on April 21 but will be better than ever, city officials are still skeptical.
"Following nine years of building the Salt Lake City Marathon, ownership is being transferred to U.S. Road Sports," according to Chris Devine, who said he was getting out of the road race business in order to pursue opportunities in radio. "This year's marathon will be managed by USRS's highly qualified and capable staff."
Despite being plagued by financial difficulties that include vendors not being paid or being paid long after the event, the Salt Lake Marathon, half marathon and family 5K remained immensely popular. In 2011 more than 10,000 people participated in the running events and the associated bike tour.
Devine said he didn't want to sell the race in December after race director Scott Kerr resigned. But he said after looking at all the options, selling the event to USRS (who also own the Miami Marathon, among others) felt like the best move for the future of the race.
"I'm comforted to know that it's in good hands," said Devine. "I'm a little disappointed frankly in some of the speculation that the race won't happen. The new owners fully intend to meet all deadlines and hold the race."
City officials contacted Friday morning said the deadline for completing all necessary paperwork is Feb. 15.
"We are fast approaching the date after which the protected date will no longer be tenable," said Art Raymond, spokesman for Mayor Ralph Becker. "The simple reality is that is the amount of time it takes all of the city entities that need to prepare for the event. We have heard rumors (of new ownership), but we have not issued a permit, nor processed an application from a new sponsor group."
Devine said the necessary application fees have been paid. He added that new owners planned to be in Salt Lake City Tuesday of next week and meet with city officials on Wednesday. One of the issues is where the race should finish, Devine said.
Raymond said the city had only "intermittent and sporadic" contact with Devine Racing and was concerned that officials were "yet to hear a name of a local race director."
He said that if the deadline passes without the race owners meeting the requirements of the city, then there likely would be no race in Salt Lake City held on that date.
"It wouldn't be feasible for any organization," said Raymond, who added that city officials enjoy hosting events like the marathon. "We appreciate the kind of energy an event like this generates, but the current owners have not performed well in our community."
He said the city had a "high volume" of contact from runners interested in participating, but weren't able to advise them on whether or not they should plan for a race.
"We can't answer that question," Raymond said. "We don't know what to say. And more importantly, (the way the race has been run) reflects a complete lack of professionalism. To leave participants excited to be involved in this event hung over the cliff so to speak, this close to the event, without communicating effectively, it's a huge disappointment."
He said city officials had heard from a number of small business owners who either weren't paid or were paid a long period of time after the event since Kerr resigned in October.
"It's a very unfortunate position for the city to be in," said Raymond. "We're extremely concerned with the history of conduct. And the current conduct for that matter."
Devine feels badly that the reputation of the race has been sullied, and he hopes new ownership will restore it as one of the country's top events. He thanked the officials who'd helped him launch the event and the runners who supported it.
"I have enjoyed watching thousands of participants run in the marathon events since our inaugural race in 2003," Devine said. "It has been rewarding to witness, and to hear all of the individual wonderful stories of motivation. I am grateful to all who assisted in the healthy marathon experience that resulted in hundreds of thousands of dollars being raised for charity and millions of dollars of positive economic impact in the community. Genuine thanks to our county and city mayors, deputy county mayor, their support staff and the marathon's thousands of volunteers. To Rocky Anderson who shared the vision, thank you.
"I ran the half marathon for the first time in 2011. It became very clear to me that the marathon needs an upgrade to enjoy a strong positive future. That future is now secure."

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) University of Illinois trustees have approved a contract that will pay football coach Bill Cubit $1.2 million per year for two years.
Trustees voted on the deal for Cubit on Thursday in Chicago.
Cubit's pay is the lowest in the Big Ten. Ohio State's Urban Meyer is the highest-paid football coach in the conference at $5.8 million. The contract is also unusually short. Most coaches are signed for at least four years.
University administrators have said the short-term deal made sense as the school looked for an athletic director to replace the fired Mike Thomas.
Cubit took over as interim coach in August after Tim Beckman was fired. The deal would pay him a prorated amount of his salary if he is fired without cause. The minimum would be $250,000.

Wilderness near New York City

Wilderness near New York City
Art Bernstein, MS (Gold Hill, OR), author and naturalist, "Harriman and Bear Mountain State Parks, less than 30 miles from New York City."
This is a continuation of an earlier discussion by Mr. Bernstein, when gasoline was $4 a gallon, on recreational opportunities near big cities so the residents don't have to go on expensive, far away vacations to enjoy the wonders of nature.
In this regard, New York City is especially blessed. Within 30 miles of Times Square, in New York City, according to Mr. Bernstein, lies Harriman State Park, New York State's second biggest state park in and one of the oldest state parks in the country. The park covers 46,000 acres and contains 31 lakes, 200 miles of hiking trail and 18.9 miles of the popular Appalachian Trail. The park was donated to the state of New York by the Harriman Family in 1910. The family owned the New York Central Railroad.
Adjacent to Harriman State park are two New Jersey State parks, two New York State Forest Preserves and Bear Mountain State Park. Bear Mountain is a 5,000 acre park with a 1,200 foot peak that rises above the Hudson River. The peak was of strategic importance during the American Revolution. You can now drive to the summit.
Bernstein noted that the whole concept of "back to nature," appreciation of scenery and wildland preservation began in the late 1700's and early 1800's in the Hudson River Valley, and the paintings of the Hudson River School of artists, such as Albert Bierstadt.
Until recently, the Hudson River was badly polluted but good progress is being made on its restoration. The same is true of the Connecticut and Rahway Rivers.

She's got that glow!
Expectant mama Bethany Hamilton shared a sneak peek of her maternity photo shoot via Instagram.
"Bringing new life into this world. @blendamontorophotography," the pro surfer, 27, captioned the image with husband Adam Dirks and their 2-year-old son Tobias.
In their native Hawaii, the growing family pose together in a sweet snapshot featuring Bethany's growing baby bump.
Over the weekend, the expectant mama bared her baby bump on the beach with her toddler.
With the words "20 weeks" scrawled in the sand, that professional surfer struck a pregnant pose with her sweet son.
"20 weeks along and feeling excited everyday!" she wrote. "For those who don't know 20 weeks is about halfway along in pregnancy."
Earlier this month, Hamilton announced her second pregnancy.
"Right there!" the couple's son said in the cute clip when Dirks asks where baby is. Then, the toddler places a sweet smooch on his mom's growing belly.
"Another one on the way!" Dirks addresses the camera, with Hamilton adding, "Baby in there!"
The pair – who were wed in Aug. 2013 – welcomed their first child on June 1, 2015. After his birth, Hamilton announced his arrival on social media.
"Blessed to welcome our son, Tobias, into the world. Born June 1st, 7.9 lbs. and 21″ Long. He is named after his great grandpa Tobias meaning 'The goodness of God.' Adam and I so in love with our lil guy and are stoked to share life with him! #stokedmomma Photo: @TimmyHamilton," the first-time mom captioned the family photo.
The couple announced their first pregnancy in Feb. 2015.
"We have a little surprise for you … baby on board!" Hamilton said in the YouTube pregnancy announcement. "She's pregnant, yes!" added her husband.
The expectant mama lost her arm in a 2003 shark attack. Hamilton wrote about her experience in the 2004 autobiography Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family, and Fighting to Get Back on the Board. Then in April 2011, the feature film Soul Surfer was released.

A third defeat in four matches has left Ashington boss Gary Middleton and his playing staff facing a miserable Christmas.
The season continues to be up and down for the Colliers, and although they gave a spirited showing in the second 45 minutes on Saturday, they nevertheless tumbled to a quick fire double against North Shields.
The Robins are on the crest of a wave as they ride high second top of the Ebac Northern League's first division table after winning promotion last term.
And after bouncing back from a two-goal deficit a little over a fortnight ago against the Wansbeck side, they looked like a side brimming with confidence and were in cruise control during the first half.
They led with two goals inside a ten minutes period from Adam Forster and John Parker before Kyle Downey stoked up Ashington's interest with a goal right on the stroke of half-time.
After the whistle had gone for the interval and the sides were leaving the pitch, there was an off the ball incident which resulted in referee Lindsey Robinson brandishing the red card to Colliers striker Marc Walton.
The visitors made a confident and flying start and within four minutes Dean Walker got the better of Lance McGlen but curled a right footer wide of Conor Grant's post.
A left foot drive from Dean Holmes stung the fingertips of Grant who was forced to push the ball around, but in the 32nd minute the Shieldsmen took the lead.
Richardson was the provider of a through pass which set up Forster who drew Grant then fired a cross-shot inside the far corner of the net.
Only a last ditch and superb tackle by Lewis Davison stopped Holmes in his tracks before the North Tynesiders added a second.
The goal was simplicity itself as Parker headed a left wing corner from Richardson into the roof of the net.
An effort from Walton flashed wide before the Colliers reduced the deficit after Johnson had done the spadework. He beat two defenders inside the area and when he crossed, Walton missed his connection at the near post but the ball ran for Downey who lashed it into an empty net.
Game on it appeared, but Ashington's task was made so much harder by Walton's dismissal.
In fairness, Middleton's side gave it a go and two minutes into the second period Bannon clawed down a shot from Johnson.
However, Shields could so easily have put the game beyond their hosts as Richardson was foiled by Grant then with the keeper stranded, James Luccock struck the post and the follow up by Walker was magnificently parried by Grant diving to his left.
Holmes' effort from 20 yards smacked against the angle of post and crossbar.

Landslide my ass!
Can somebody please explain to the Information Minister the definition of a "landslide"? When a government which controlled 98% of the parliament actually (admittedly) loses seats in an election… not so much a landslide. The latest figure being touted by the EPRDF is that it has won 300 seats. Considering it used to have, what 542, claiming a landslide victory might be… what would you call it, retarded.
The general consensus from all seems to be that no way is the EPRDF going to give up power. I get this sentiment from the most salient of political analysts, my uncle in Ethiopia who has a knack for summarizing major world events in seven words or less (Tsunami: "Esiya wusT cheresachew, aydel?") He tells me that the EPRDF hardliners are now saying "be demmachin yagenenewin manim aywesdewim… ("No one will take away from us what we gained by spilling our blood"). God help us when Prime Minister Meles is considered the moderate one in Ethiopian politics.
About the elections: the pictures I see posted on the innernetz from Election Day in Ethiopia… I don't care who your candidate is, they had to touch you. The elderly woman pushing in her ballot in the box with the help of her young assistant… the group of qessoch who, adorned in heavy gabi to combat the early frost, holding their crosses in one hand, and their ballot in the other… the young men who showed up to vote dressed in their best outfits, their hair trimmed, their faces freshly scrubbed in the proper deference to democracy. It is hard not to feel touched.
There are some sentiments here in LA and in the States by know-it-alls easily dismissing the elections. To me they were profound. Despite myself, I know how I felt when I first cast my vote to elect my leader. I can only imagine how they felt in Ethiopia. These are certainly exciting times for Ethiopia.
So, how do you lead a nation when you don't control the capital? Yeah, yeah… don't give me the "you damn elite, Addis Ababa is not Ethiopia" argument. For all intents and purposes it is. Not that it should be, mind you, but the reality on the ground is that it is. And the opposition, it appears, has also won all other major cities. Surely, this is the beginning of the end. Perhaps in 2010 Ato Bereket Simon will know the definition of a landslide.
If it is a foregone conclusion that EPRDF will retain power, this will be an opportunity for the opposition to fine tune its policies ( I read Ato Hailu Shawel's interview and, ehem, them policies need some fine tuning), strengthen its coalition and cruise into power in 2010. Five years is not a long time.
I am reminded of the modus operendai of the nutty wing of the Republican Party which basically said, "It's OK is we lose a couple of elections. We will bide our time with winning small local elections and build up." When they said that, by the way, the Democrats scoffed: who are these hicks who think they can regress America to a theocracy? Big mistake. The Christian Coalition started off by winning city council, school board and dog catcher positions in 1982, and now you can't be elected to the highest office in the world without the approval of Pat Robertson! Abess geberku! So, seriously, five years is not a long time.
We should not devalue what it means to be a vibrant opposition. It's all about thinking two steps ahead. EPRDF has already lost despite winning another (last) term. You can deride the right wing nuts in the Republican Party all we want, but their tactics of rising from a disdained minority to being major political players should be taught in textbooks. The best victory is one that is achieved despite the rules being stacked against you. Who would have thought 20 years ago, that we'd be having arguments about whether there should be a Ten Commandments monument inside a state court house! It was an amazing change in political tide, and perhaps that's what the Ethiopian opposition should be concentrating on rather than piddle with sound-bites. Hey, CUD/UDEF! Can you actually enjoy being a powerful opposition, please?
The thing is, unless the opposition starts spinning their gain in parliament as a huge victory and stop with the "I demand a recount" chikonet, they might lose momentum with the people, especially those who voted for them. It will be hard to recover the base once your supporters start feeling like they sided with the losing party. That won't be good. People need to feel like winners to have voted for the opposition, despite not actually winning the parliment!! That will keep them hanging on through to 2010.
If, as is believed, the EPRDF is determined to hold on to power by any means necessary, then let them have a last victory lap. Be gracious about it. My suggestion is that on June 9 the opposition goes on a "Thank you, Ethiopia" tour and win the hearts of the people. Once you've won their hearts, you've won.
It might also be an exercise in tolerance both for the ruling party and the opposition to work together for five years. Even when the coalition wins in 2010, however, I hope there will be another vibrant opposition (even if it is the EPRDF) that keeps us from ever having one party heading a rubberstamp parliament. If Berhanu Nega becomes the Mayor of one of the biggest cities in Africa and he has to report to PM Meles, wouldn't that be a lesson in cooperation and compromise? I am inclined to think that all is not lost just because the opposition does not have 297 seats. It will make it stronger. It will. The opposition should bide its time and not hurry to storm into a falling house. Just wait until the house falls down by itself and just step in.
To me, the case against the EPRDF and PM Meles is simple. I like honor in a person, and this government has proven itself astonishingly dishonorable. I can tolerate some incompetence, even some hubris. But honor is non-negotiable. At the heart of it, I see no goodwill and good intentions in the EPRDF, and that makes it hard to see beyond that.I visited Ethiopia when the EPRDF first came into power.
They say that you can tell a man's true character when he has power. How PM Meles and his party behaved between 1992-95 was abominable. I used to think that "Ye Ethiopia amlak" was a simpleton saying that gave ecclesiastical explanation to all that ailes us. But truly there must have been a higher power looking out for Ethiopia, because the whole TPLF/EPLF alliance during that time and the guerilla mentality it brought with it was nothing short of obscene. That Ethiopia did not deteriorate into a Somalia at that time was because there was ye Ethiopia amlak. Maybe someday I will write a book on that time.
In short, why is honor the last thing we look for from our leaders in Ethiopia, and Africa in general?
A friend of mine who stopped being an Ethiopian in 1991 and became an Eritrean (he has since become an Ethiopian again, but I have not checked his country affiliation in a couple of months) went back with me to Ethiopia in 1993-4 and was aglow about what hew saw as the "new Ethiopia". He quickly joined the cabal of the nouveau riche. I returned to the States having had seen enough unacceptable behavior.
In late1999 or early 2000 my friend was deported from Ethiopia and I heard an earful from him about the scandalous way Eritireas were being deported and treated in Ethiopia, how the Meles government was evil and how this is a holocaust.
Yep… except it was a holocaust between 1991-1999 as well, it just didn't seem like it to my friend.
You don't even have to go to the stunningly bizarre ethnic policy and kililization/tribalization policy of the Meles government. (Something I will address later.) I truly believe that anyone who has goodwill at heart is workable. You may have glaring policy differences with a person of goodwill but still trust him and his leadership.
Like I said, honor is non-negotiable, and the EPRFD is unforgivably, unrepentantly dishonorable. The case against Meles is simple.

What does the future hold for us? When you think about the years to come, like all people, you likely envision incredible structures with smooth, flowing exteriors. The fantastic built environments that are showcased in futuristic sc-fi movies may not be that far off. We're in the midst of the technological age where advancements come at the speed of light; architecture is no different
In many ways, architectural design evolves over time; not only to be more practical, but to meet the artistic needs of society as well. This continuous progression of design will undoubtedly lead to new, groundbreaking structures that were once thought to be impossible to construct. Structures have become more than four walls and a ceiling, but are quickly becoming pieces of art.
In fact, the Huffington
Current projects are already underway that answer the imagined needs of future generations. From a tower that rotates to a concert hall made of air, we've got it all. Below we will be showcasing the hottest future trends architectural design that you will have to see to believe.
Flowing Bridges
At the forefront of this futuristic movement is NEXT Architects, a team of experienced and innovative architects from the Netherlands that are world renowned for their artistic views on architecture.
NEXT has recently been awarded first prize in an international competition to design a pedestrian bridge for Meixi Lake in Changsha, China.
The foot bridge will be much more than just a passageway from one side of the river to the next, but will also serve as a key location for further expansion of a lake district within the Dragon King Harbor River development.
Why craft a boring, eye sore of a typical suspension bridge when you can skillfully craft a pedestrian foot bridge that contains three individual swirling lanes that undulate over the pristine landscape of Changsha?
Construction has already begun on this mammoth bridge and is expected to integrate into the 150 meter-long, 24 meter-high elevated parkway.
Elevated Parks
After a 7 month competition, the company, OLMA + OLIN was recently chosen to construct the 11th Street Bridge Park in Washington DC that will feature an elevated civic area that overlooks the Anacostia River.
The construction of this park serves to connect two disparate city districts and re-connect residents with the riverfront by adding advanced recreational areas that include a café, a segment for water sports, and performance spaces. Construction has yet to begin, but this will undoubtedly be an important piece for the city's future.
The Rotating Skyscraper
From the minds of Dynamic Architecture comes a monumental, 80 story tall residential skyscraper that overlooks the picturesque skyline of Dubai. There have been taller buildings erect for the better part of a century, so what makes this design so futuristic?
The entire structure rotates…
No, we're not kidding. The massive skyscraper will complete one full 360 degree revolution every 90 minutes, to make it the very first of its kind. Residents won't be clamoring over whether or not they receive an Eastern facing apartment because every apartment will face all four cardinal directions several times throughout the day.
Don't believe us? Check this video out for yourself.
Not only does the structure rotate, but it will also come equipped with wind turbines to supply the apartments with a continuous stream of clean energy. Though construction was supposed to have begun in 2010, delays have hindered the process, so there is no telling when this architectural masterpiece will actually come to fruition.
The Inflatable Concert Hall
From the outside, it looks reminiscent to a giant purple jelly bean, but entitled Ark Nova, this plushy balloon like monstrosity is actually the world's first inflatable concert hall.
Anish Cooper, an iconic British sculptor, and Japanese architect Arata Isozaki collaborated to carefully craft this enormous purple magnum opus.
The purpose of such an undertaking is to create a performance hall that is portable, so that it can be inflated throughout areas of Japan and Western Asia that were dramatically impacted by the earthquake and tsunami that devastated these areas in 2011.
The Future is Here
The incredible innovations that were previously figments of our imagination are quickly becoming a reality. No longer do we have to turn to movies to catch a glimpse such sleek and notable designs.
Technological advancements are allowing these creations spring up and come to life sooner than most would think. Now that we know what's possible, we may wonder; what else does the future hold?

A Self claimed leading IT security service website has become victim to hacking after hackers from a crew going by the handle @TheCrowsCrew gained access and left the site (https://www.datadefence.com/) with a new main page. The attack has happened within the last few hours and was carried out by the crows crew member @catalyst71_RJA and it appears that the "IT security experts" at @datadefence are totally unaware of the systems breach as at time of publishing the website was still defaced.
Data Defence is a leading edge IT services company providing innovative solutions and services to help organisations guarantee the availability and security of their corporate data.
Data defence appears to have partnerships with some very high profile company's such as Microsoft, Trend Micro, Webroot, Symantec, Cryptzone.Mimecast and Dell Appasure. So with the self claims of being a IT data security expert its any wonder how they have allowed this to happen but it might have something to do with using an outdated version of wordpress. All attacks by The Crows Crew can be found on Hack DB which in total is over 3000 archive mirrors of past breaches. The defacement on the data defence website has no real message but does has a shout out list and a embedded song. > Hacked by catalyst71 Just Test Your Security...
