- After growing ~60% in 2013 (and fueling global shipment growth of 39%), IDC expects Chinese smartphone shipment growth to slow to ~20% in 2014 and just ~10% in 2015.
- Though only 40% of China's 1B+ mobile users now use a smartphone, IDC's Kiranjeet Kaur notes most users who can comfortably afford a smartphone have already bought one. Plunging low-end Android prices could expand the addressable market in a country whose nominal per capita GDP is around $6K.
- India, which has a sub-10% smartphone penetration rate, still presents a major growth opportunity. But with a nominal per capita GDP of ~$1,500, the country is even more cost-sensitive than China.
- With China slowing down and developed markets living up to their name, IDC expects global smartphone growth to slow to 19% in 2014; that still spells total volumes of 1.2B. Tough competition and the ongoing mix shift towards emerging markets is expected to lead the industry's ASP to fall $27 to $308.
- Smartphone OEMs with strong Chinese exposure: AAPL, SSNLF, LNVGY, ZTCOY

- The imposition of a value-added tax (VAT) , part of a broader tax reform push by the Chinese government, is expected to hurt the bottom lines of China Mobile (CHL), China Unicom (CHU), and China Telecom (CHA).
- The announcement comes less than three months after the government issued MVNO licenses to 11 companies (inc. Alibaba) looking to offer mobile services using the networks of incumbents, and at a time when voice/SMS revenue streams are already being pressured by mobile messaging apps (most notably Tencent's WeChat).
- Bernstein's Chris Lane thinks China Mobile's net profit could be hurt by 7%, and Unicom and Telecom's net profit by 25%, assuming an 11% VAT replaces a current 3% business tax.

- Apple (AAPL) has finally launched the iPhone on China Mobile's (CHL) massive network, but despite the carrier's 763M subscribers, skepticism exists about how much the companies will benefit.
- "You need to consider the cannibalization of (iPhone) sales from China Unicom (CHU), China Telecom (CHA) and the grey market," says Gartner analyst CK Lu. "So even though there's an addition from China Mobile, it will also impact sales from other channels as well."
- As for China Mobile, there are concerns about subsidies it might have to pay. "I don't see a price war coming where Apple is engaged in the war, but I do think you're going to see a subsidy war coming," says Michael Clendenin of Shanghai-based RedTech Advisors.

- The Chinese government has issued licenses (translation) to 11 companies looking to offer mobile services via MVNO arrangements with incumbents China Mobile (CHL -0.2%), China Unicom (CHU -0.7%), and China Telecom (CHA). Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is among the companies receiving a license.
- Though the incumbents will receive service fees from MVNOs, the licenses set the stage for China's mobile services market to see its first major jolt of new competition in years. The market's last major shakeup arguably happened in '08, when China Telecom (originally focused on wireline services) struck a deal to purchase China Unicom's 2G CDMA network.
- The licenses arrive shortly after the Chinese government slashed the interconnection fees China Unicom and Telecom have to pay China Mobile (by far the market's biggest player). All three carriers have seen their voice/text revenues pressured by the rise of mobile messaging services, particularly Tencent's WeChat.

- Just eight days after Amazon and IBM announced they're launching cloud infrastructure (IaaS) services meant for Chinese companies and subsidiaries, China Unicom (CHU -0.7%) is doing the same.
- The #2 Chinese mobile carrier has launched Wo Cloud, an IaaS solution that leverages the open-source OpenStack platform (strongly supported by Rackspace, Red Hat, and others), and which features cloud computing, storage, and app hosting services. Unicom says it will increase its cloud-related infrastructure investments to help support Wo Cloud.
- In addition to Amazon and IBM, Unicom will face IaaS competition from Alibaba, which has long been a major player in the Chinese IaaS market, and Microsoft's Windows Azure (expanded into China earlier this year).

- China has approved a pilot scheme that will allow 11 private "virtual carriers" to sell mobile phone services using the infrastructure of the country's dominant operators, China Mobile (CHL), China Telecom (CHA) and China Unicom (CHU).
- "It's a milestone," says the Ministry of Industry & Information Technology. "It will draw private investment, and stimulate competition and innovation in the telecoms sector," giving "consumers greater choice and better service."
- The 11 companies to receive permits include Net.cn, a unit of online retail giant Alibaba.
- ETFs: CHIQ, CQQQ, QQQC, KWEB

Wednesday, Dec 42013, 6:57 PM
- The Chinese government has finally issued 4G licenses (long anticipated) to China Mobile (CHL), China Unicom (CHU), and China Telecom (CHA), paving the way for commercial service launches to start.
- China Mobile, which has already built out a giant "trial" 4G network, is set to have a 4G partner conference in two weeks that will reportedly feature an iPhone announcement. China Telecom says it will launch 4G services in Q1.
- Notably, the licenses only cover 4G networks relying on the TD-LTE standard (allows for more capacity to be allocated to downlinks than uplinks, if carriers wish). China Unicom and Telecom both want to run networks using the FDD LTE standard, which is far more popular internationally, and say they still plan to request FDD LTE licenses in the future.
- In addition to Apple, Chinese 4G launches are likely to benefit Qualcomm (QCOM). Whereas Qualcomm faces tough competition in the Chinese 3G baseband chip market (particularly on the low-end) and has had royalty collection issues for sales of phones running on China Mobile's TD-SCDMA 3G network, it has a dominant share of the global 4G baseband market, and hasn't had any major 4G collection issues.
- Many think the Chinese government's anti-monopoly probe of Qualcomm is a bargaining tactic aimed at securing 4G royalty rate concessions.

- In what could be a trial balloon, the Chinese government plans to lift its ban on "politically sensitive" foreign websites in Shanghai's new free-trade zone, according to government sources talking to Hong Kong's South China Morning Post. Facebook (FB +4.7%), Twitter, and the New York Times are among the sites that will reportedly be made accessible.
- In addition, the government plans to allow foreign carriers to bid for licenses to provide Internet services in the free-trade zone. State-owned carriers China Mobile (CHL -0.8%), China Telecom (CHA -1.8%), and China Unicom (CHU -2.8%) have all reportedly been informed foreign companies will be able to compete with them in the area.
- For now, the zone only covers 29 sq. km. But sources state it could eventually cover Shanghai's entire Pudong business district (1,210 sq. km), home to the Shanghai Stock Exchange and arguably China's most vital commercial hub.
- The report comes shortly after Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg met with Chinese Web regulators. China already has a well-developed social networking scene, with Tencent (TCEHY.PK) and SINA claiming hundreds of millions of registered users for their respective platforms.

- China Unicom (CHU +0.6%) says its iPhone 5S/5C (AAPL -2.6%) reservations have topped 100K since it began taking them last week. Last year, Unicom took 200K+ iPhone 5 reservations in the phone's first two days of availability.
- Meanwhile, China Telecom (CHA +2.5%) has cut its iPhone subsidies. A subscriber signing up for an RMB289/month ($47/month) plan will get an iPhone 5S subsidy of RMB2890, 15% less than the RMB3400 subsidy it provided for the iPhone 5. It's worth noting CHA's ARPU is below $10.
- The Chinese figures come amidst sharp criticism of the 5C's unsubsidized pricing, which starts at $735 in China. For reference, upstart Xiaomi's new Mi3 flagship Android phone (5" 1080p display, 13MP camera) starts at $327 in the Middle Kingdom.
- On the other hand, Japanese carriers are aggressively subsidizing the 5S in the wake of NTT DoCoMo's (DCM +0.7%) iPhone deal. DoCoMo, SoftBank (SFTBF.PK), and KDDI are each providing the 5S for free with 2-year contracts for certain plans.
- Kantar Japan recently estimated 2/3 of DoCoMo subs who have been leaving the carrier ended up buying an iPhone.
- Also: Bernstein thinks Apple could still come out with a cheaper iPhone in the form of a sub-$400 iPhone 4C that puts the iPhone 4's components inside a 5C body.

- A long-awaited deal between Apple (AAPL) and China Mobile (CHL) appears to have moved closer after the U.S. company received a license for its phones to operate on China Mobile's 3G and 4G networks from the country's Telecom Equipment Certification Center.
- Apple's products also obtained licenses to run on the infrastructure of China Unicom (CHU) and China Telecom (CHA), both of which will sell the two iPhones that were unveiled yesterday.
- While a deal with China Mobile will open up a market of 700M subscribers, the "low-end" iPhone 5C looks rather pricey for the cost-conscious consumers that Apple was expected to target with the handset. The device will retail at 4,488 yuan ($730), just 800 yuan ($130) less than the top-of-the-line 5S.

- Two months after U.S. district judge Denise Cote declared Apple (AAPL +0.2%) guilty of conspiring to fix e-book prices, and two weeks after the DOJ proposed e-book injunction terms, Cote has issued an injunction.
- As suggested by the DOJ, Apple is prohibited from striking restrictive e-book pricing deals with publishers for 5 years, and is required to stagger its talks with publishers to prevent collusion. Also, an external monitor has been assigned for two years.
- However, Apple won't be required to allow rivals to sell e-books through their iOS apps without giving Apple a 30% cut, as the DOJ had suggested. Amazon (AMZN +0.4%) has refused to sell e-books through its Kindle iOS apps out of an unwillingness to pay Apple 30% of its take.
- Meanwhile, Reuters nearly backs up yesterday's Sina Tech report by reporting China Unicom (CHU -0.3%) and Telecom (CHA -0.6%) will begin selling the iPhone 5S/5C shortly after it goes on sale in the U.S., a major change of pace from the delays accompanying past Chinese iPhone launches.
- Other news: Apple Insider reports Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) will be released at the end of October, and Quantcast and Piper estimate iOS' share of U.S. mobile browsing traffic has grown to 65%.
- The latter is a negative for Google (GOOG +0.2%), due to the huge traffic acquisition payments it makes to Apple for Mobile Safari search ad clicks. However, Google doesn't have to pay Apple if iOS users rely on Chrome, as a growing portion of them are.

- If the Chinese media report (comes from local site Sina Tech - translation) pans out, it means China Telecom (CHA +0.4%) and China Unicom (CHU -0.3%) will start selling Apple's (AAPL -0.8%) newest iPhones the same day they're expected to launch in the U.S. and several other big international markets.
- Last year, Telecom and Unicom didn't begin selling the iPhone 5 until Dec. 14, more than 2 months after the device went on sale in dozens of other markets.
- Sina Tech also reports China Mobile (CHL +0.7%) won't be able to sell the 5S until November (assuming a deal is announced), due to the need for regulatory approval of an iPhone supporting CHL's TD-LTE 4G network.
- The 5S is said to come in 4 colors, and the plastic-shell 5C in 5 colors. Other reports suggest the 5S' colors will be white, black, gold, and graphite, and the 5C's colors white, red, green, blue, and yellow.
- An iPhone event will take place in Beijing shortly after Apple's main Sep. 10 event.
- Earlier: DoCoMo to reportedly offer iPhone soon

- China's suddenly vigorous enthusiasm for investigations into corporate behavior could strengthen further, with the National Development & Reform Commission (NDRC) reported to be considering probes into the petroleum, telecommunications and banking sectors.
- The idea is to scrutinize industries that affect the lives of ordinary Chinese. However, the sectors mentioned are dominated by state-run companies, such as China Unicom (CHU), China Mobile (CHL) and China Telecom (CHA) in the communications industry, while it's the government that sets the price of oil.
- The healthcare sector is already under well-publicized scrutiny, while the NDRC has also asked for information about the prices of foreign cars.

Why the peak oil debate misses the point in an NOC-dominated world
Op-ed: Encina Columns Summer '08As oil prices surge through $140/barrel at the time of writing, surely one can at least count on the invisible hand of the market to drive further exploration and production and ultimately bring more supplies on line, right? Or perhaps, more ominously, high oil prices presage a darker future of shortage and conflict as global oil fields pass their geological "peak"? In fact, both positions miss a crucial point about the dynamics of the world oil market -- that it is increasingly animated by the counterintuitive behavior of the state-owned oil and gas giants that now control the vast majority of the world's hydrocarbon resources.

Gazprom case study released
Russia's Gazprom is among the largest companies in the world, and by far the world's largest producer of natural gas, with close to a 20% share. Driven by its political masters, it continues to consolidate control over Russia's vast oil and (especially) gas resources, and many Western observers are worried by its international expansion into downstream assets. In a new study of the energy giant, Nadejda Victor details the ways in which Gazprom's actions are distorted by political demands and by the inefficiency of the Russian economy, suggesting that it is headed for a production crisis if business and investment considerations don't start to take a higher priority.

China gas model shows regional air quality concerns one means to mitigate GHGs
PESD researcher BinBin Jiang, working with collaborators in three coastal provinces, releases a new paper that estimates demand for natural gas in China. The study shows that gas competes mainly in niche markets but can't unseat coal for power generation unless very tight regulations on local air pollution are applied. If local pollution is regulated, however, the study suggests that China would also make a substantial dent in its CO2 emissions.

Village Creek State Park
[ 9/10 ]
This campground was very nice. Don't be scared away by bathroom comments on another review. The bathrooms were very clean and the showers were great. The showers were very private. You have your own room with a small dressing room in each one. The campground was very close to many places. The staff was very accommodating. They only had two spaces left which they said were the worst in the campground so they gave us a discount because of this. The spaces weren't too bad, they were just on a hill. We would definitely stay there again. We stayed one night.

This is a small park run by a nice couple. The owner bakes pies every day and sell them by the slice. The comfort station was spotless.

Fishing Bridge Campground (NPS Campground)

The camp ground is very tight but if you want full hookups and want to stay in the park this is your only choice. It is centrally located and by the time you get home from exploring the park you are so tired you just go to bed anyway. I would stay here again.
Hill City, South Dakota
Rafter J Bar Ranch Camping Resort

Excellent park! The sites were large and very well kept. Plenty of room for the kids to ride their bikes. The bathrooms were very clean. The only negative was the WiFi was very weak and over capacity much of our stay. I would recommend the park to everyone.

Stayed here on an overnight stop. The campground is OK for a one night stop. Sites were on a hill side and still need a little help with leveling. Many site are rented on a seasonal basis.

Jasmine Mans' official tumblr page can be found here http://gunsontheplayground.tumblr.com/
Born in Newark, NJ to two hard working African American parents Jasmine understood a reality of dedication, hard work, family, and loyalty to not only who she is, but also where she is from. Growing up under the artistry and guidance of Halim Suliman, Amiri Baraka, and William Manns, Jasmine knew that she wanted to change the world with her words. She is a recipient of a $20,000 art scholarship from The Star Ledger-NJPAC, and a recipient of a First Wave scholarship, a spoken word and hip hop scholarship program at University of Wisconsin - Madison.
In 2008, on the Kennedy Center stage, Jasmine would become apart of Robert Redford's Green Team raising awareness about global warming through performance poetry. Jasmine also participated in The Knicks Poetry Slam on Broadway and was a member of the 1st place team at CUPSI College Poetry National Festival. She has appeared on "HBO's Def Poetry" and HBO's Russell Simmons presents "Brave New Voices" where her slam poetry experience was documented. Jasmine gained media buzz for her thought provoking piece about rapper Nicki Minaj,"The Mis-Education of Barbie". With over 500,00 views, her unapologetic critique/thoughts on the rapper's portrayal in mainstream media caught the attention of several media outlets, and gained her a guest editorial spot on AllHipHop.com. Most recently, Jasmine has been named as one of Glamour 's Top Ten College Women.
Mans has opened for Grammy winning artist Janelle Monae, appeared on The Mo'Nique show and on Broadway at the New Amsterdam Theater. In addition she was featured in the Ralph Lauren ad campaign, Rugby's Next Great Poet.
Her first book, Chalk Outlines of Snow Angels is available now on Thorn10 Publishing. She has also released a highly acclaimed mix tape, Black Boy Gold, which has received thousands of downloads across the globe.
Jasmine is a distinguished member of Delta Sigma Theta Incorporated.

Krakus and Wanda Mounds, Krakow
The Krakus Mound (Kopiec Krakusa) and Wanda Mound (Kopiec Wandy) in Krakow are mysterious, prehistoric man-made hills, each about 50 feet high and about 6 miles apart.
Like their distant (and perhaps older) counterparts Stonehenge and Newgrange, the Krakow Mounds are astronomically aligned. Looking from the Krakus Mound on the eve of the Celtic celebration of the sun (May 1), the sun rises exactly over the Wanda Mound. On the Celtic New Year (November 1), the Sikornik Mountain overlooks the sunrise above the Krakus Mound.
Historians and scholars have given differing interpretations of the intriguing grassy humps, ranging from burial sites to fortifications to pagan temples. As of yet, no bones have been found in the mounds.
According to the Medieval chronicler of Kraków, Jan Dlugosz, the mounds were erected to commemorate the legendary first ruler of Kraków - Krak, from whom the city derives its name - and his daughter Wanda, who (another legend says) chose to jump into the Vistula River rather than marry a foreigner.
Modern Krakovians have raised two additional mounds in the city as well. The first was the Kopiec Kosciuszki (Kosciuszko Mound), erected 1813-20 atop Sikornik Hill. Raised during Austrian occupation, it is sacred to the memory of Tadeusz Kosciuszko who fought for the freedom of Poland. The mound incorporates earth from battlefields where the general fought.
The fourth mound is Kopiec Pilsudskiego, near to Kopiec Kosciuszki. It was erected between 1934 and 1937 to commemorate Marshal Pilsudski (1867-1935), the leader of the revived Polish state.
On Sunday afternoons and major holidays many Krakovian families, complete with grandparents and toddlers, and many in their Sunday best, stroll along the walking path that follows the gentle slope of Sikornik Hill.

Pitiless teen burglar murders three witnesses
An Illinois teenager is facing residential burglary and cruelty to animals raps after killing a trio of potential witnesses to an Arlington Heights burglary - three goldfish. On 24 January, the unnamed 16-year-old and two accomplices, aged 15 and 17, targeted an apartment in a block which had been evacuated following a fire on …
"An Illinois teenager is facing residential burglary.....".
Being the you-ess-aye, wouldn't it be "burglarizafizication" or somesuch unneccesarily extended term?
Well Not Really
"They can apparently recall stuff for up to three months, making the victims in this case potential key prosecution witnesses."
There is no place in the US where a criminal will be brought to trial in three months or less. Not even Juvenile Court or Family Court (which is the courts which have jurisdiction over minors in many places.)
Well known Mafia method for dealing with witnesses .....
..."Those stool pigeons are sleeping with the fishes!"
OK, I know ,,,,,
Goldfishes can be evil
Sam and Max were going to execute Mr Spatula, and I don't think they were going to get arrested for it (but then, they ARE the freelance police).
Not just evil - pure evil!
Yeah, we wouldn't want Mr Spatula's spirit sending the seamonkeys after the burglars!
Would have loved
to have heard that cross examinaion in court,
Prosecuter - Mr Fish can you see the perpetrators in this court?
fish - -O-
Prosecuter - Is that yes or no?
Fish - -O-
Icon - Another Mass Fish murderer
Direct or Re-direct, but not cross
A prosecutor doesn't cross examine witnesses FOR the prosecution.
it's the Chicago Way
did this massacre take place on Valentine's Day?
And where's the Tommy gun icon?
Fish in the dock
If the fish go to court and have to swear on the Holy Bible, does it matter if they don't necessarily believe in Cod??
Yep, fetching it now.....
Worse even than the parrot burglar
but in a similar line,
I like this one better...
The title is required, and must contain letters and/or digits.
Gotta hand it to the criminals, they dont like to leave anything to chance. But just how did they get caught?
caught easily
dont U.S plod work closely with the local pawn shops? so they probably went in the next day to sell the kit,police checked pawn shops found all the kit sold/attempted and got em that way
just how did they get caught?
They posted photos on Facebook?
Don't know for sure, but that's the usual way.
In the UK
... they'd get a heavier sentence for sleeping with the fish than killing them ....
I only hope...
... a suitable jury can be found:
Couldn't happen in the UK
The police actually followed up the crime report by going to a nearby pawn shop. That's beyond the call dude.
I spotted some police in town on Sunday...
Spotted some police in town on Sunday... one parked in a Japanese 4x4 police car on a double yellow line while his mate got some cash from Barclays.... Glad to see they obey the law they are happy to enforce. Would have probably been less of a problem if the lard **** was able to walk a few feet so they weren't parked opposite another car (also on the double yellow) and therefore blocking the whole main road through the town.
Busting to get to the case I bet...
No witnesses? Goldfish?!
What a fucking muppet. They should execute him for the sake of the gene pool!
why do I picture Kevin Kline and Jamie Lee Curtis as in on this caper?
Have any poodles been found flattened by heavy weights, carried off by large and aggressive dogs, etc.?
Sentence all 3 to a 'hot sauce, mustard, ketchup and spice'...
That'll teach them.
I was going to suggest...
...flushing the perps down a huge toilet. But I like yours better.
This is not a title
Hmmm, I thought I read somewhere that animal cruelty laws don't apply to fish.
Question of jurisdiction
It's all a question of "which law?" Just here in the United States, there is Federal, State, and various levels of local (County/Parish, City, ...). It is entirely possible that what is true in most jurisdictions is not in another. In this particular care case, the laws of the United States Federal Government, the State of Illinois, Cook County, Illinois, and the "Village" (pop. ~76,000) of Arlington Heights, Illinois all apply. While I myself am not aware of the legal situation re: cruelty to fish in these jurisdictions, it is entirely possible that it is allowed at a higher level and banned at a lower level.
Cruelty laws
They do in the UK can't say for US though.
That kid sound like potential spree killer material.
In the US and A....
They can be tried for witchcraft and having sex with night demons....
By people who profess how their god loves us all and have their fingers on the nukes........
gratuitous cruelty to any animal is indicative of a warped mind.
Throw these idiots to the lions or tigers in the local zoo, and let them experience being on the receiving end, at least for a short time: and it'll save the zoo authorities the cost of a couple of meals.
sounds funny but
this kid is a psychopath larva. They start out on animals, then work their way up to humans. Normal kids have, in fact, more empathy for pets than for humans, as people who write kids' movies know. You can show the parents getting killed, but if the dog gets killed, the movie is also dead.

For his part, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has relented from pursuing other major changes to Medicare, such as privatization. But when it comes to the eligibility age, he is still pushing.
''It's a structural change but it doesn't require you to adopt a whole new model,'' said Scott Gottlieb, a health policy expert with the business-oriented American Enterprise Institute. ''It can be enacted quickly so you get the savings, and it can be phased in so you don't affect people about to retire.''
AARP and other groups representing older adults are mobilizing against it.
''We are prepared to oppose this one pretty strongly,'' said AARP legislative policy director David Certner. ''It's a pretty big deal.''
Raising the eligibility age is not the only Medicare cut in play. Hospitals and other service providers could see reductions in payments, drug companies may owe new rebates to the government and upper-income seniors would face higher monthly premiums. The total package could reach around $400 billion over 10 years.

Fat City (1972)
Genre: Neo-Noir Sports Drama
Starring: Stacy Keach ("Mike Hammer" • American History X), Jeff Bridges (True Grit • Crazy Heart), Susan Tyrrell (Avenging Angel • Cry-Baby)
Directed By: John Huston (The Treasure of the Sierra Madre • The African Queen)
Overview: Fat City follows the lives and careers of two boxers: one young man just getting into the ring, the other, an older man looking to get back into the sport.
As I watched Fat City for the first time, I wondered how much this story was inspired by down-and-out storyteller Charles Bukowski. Fat City plays out like so many of Bukowski's novels and short stories, plays out like so much of his own life: dramatically realistic, bleak, almost hopeless if not for the faint glimmer at the end of a tunnel of misery, chased by our characters. I'm not surprised. Fat City's novelist and screenplay writer, Leonard Gardner, lived just a few hours from Bukowski's native L.A., and was only a dozen years younger. I don't know if Bukowski was a direct influence of Gardner's writing, but it doesn't matter. To me, there's something compellingly great about the stories of impoverished drifters and dreamers that makes me want to watch, and both Bukowski and Gardner's Fat City's have it spades, with a hefty dollop of the neo-Noir that I love.
We open with Billy Tully (cleft-lipped Stacey Keach), in his sparse bedroom, half a bottle of whisky at his bedside, looking for a light for his cigarette. His entire introduction is his awakening, his search for a simple, attainable thing he just hasn't got… a perfect metaphor for his story. Billy is pushing 40 and quite obviously just living day-by-day. He was once a boxer. Not great, but he made a living at it. While at the gym he meets Ernie Munger (Jeff Bridges in one of his earliest roles, on the heels of The Last Picture Show) and spars with him a little for fun. After their bout, Billy tells Ernie that he sees a lot of potential in him, and suggests that he visit Billy's old coach, Ruben (Nicholas Colasanto) for a chance at the big time. Here, the stories of the two men split and we don't see them together for quite some time. Instead of watching these two 'bond as brothers', they go about their separate lives. Ernie fools around with another girl in the back of his car; Billy hits the local bar and meets Oma (Susan Tyrrell). She's a feisty red-headed drunk, distraught because her husband has been sent to jail. Billy quickly befriends her in a less that romantic fashion and they shack up. Through it all is the boxing, the third-rate ring fights that earn our characters a few bucks. Ernie, with his youth and his reach has a real shot, or so everyone tells him. Billy, well, he's got the experience and enough reputation to sort-of, kind-of get people coming to see him fight.
From the beginning we know that Fat City isn't a glamorous story. We hope that our characters make it, but it's painfully obvious that the odds are against them. It's an honest story about small-town-everywhere America's small-time players. We've not yet heard of the Stockton, California boxing scene, and we're pretty sure we never will. Fat City is a tale of grit, where beautiful cinematography includes close-ups of ketchup bottles shattering on the floors of one-room apartments, boxers painfully pissing blood, or Ernie zipping up Oma's dishevelled dress as she gets up from her bar-stool. It's grim, but it's beautifully written. The characters drawn you right in, and although the parallel between Ernie and Billy is obvious - the destiny Ernie has could very well be the life Billy leads – they're performances director John Huston is exceptionally proud of, and should be. Stacey Keach is incredible. He's perfectly cast for the part. His tone body and his downtrodden gaze with the cherry of his cleft lip shows both his determination and the trials of his past. Still, without Susan Tyrrell in the role of sloppy ever-drunk Oma, the film wouldn't be half of what it is. I might go so far as to say that without her character, the novel never would have made screenplay. She steals the show, supporting the cast like Atlas, adding a dimension to Billy's character, that perfectly drives home the point of where he's from and where he belongs. She's also a stark reminder of the kind of woman Bukowski writes about, a comforting, familiar sort who helps flesh out Billy's life.
All told, Fat City is one of those gritty, honest, life-is-hard-but-what-else-can-you-do movies that strays far from the romantic ideal of fighting as a sport. Rather, boxing is kept in a sweat-stained, smoky ring, in the way dogfights happen in rings, in the way pain-earned glory comes with a $100 reward. Whether greater rewards come for one or both of our pugilists is for you to discover, but getting there is far more worthwhile than Fat City's wonderful ending.

Overall Rating: 84% (Punchy)
I've told you before that what I love best about the 1001 list films is that on occasion, I know absolutely nothing about film aside from the title and year of production. All I knew about Fat City when I rented it was the font on the rental copy. This is a perfect example of great surprises.

I don't just mean the reports that came out soon afterwards about successful hacks against The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg.
Over the past couple of years, there have been analyst reports about a number of other companies and organizations infiltrated by Chinese hackers, including a number of oil companies, US government satellites, the US Chamber of Commerce, and a wide variety of technology companies including Google and Nortel.
I'm willing to bet, though, that we don't hear about the vast majority of attacks.
The New York Times is a media company. Media companies love big, juicy stories, and Chinese hackers infiltrating the world's premiere newspaper is the definition of big and juicy.
Sure, there were probably some people at the newspaper who saw the hacking as an embarrassment, and would have preferred to see it kept quiet. But it's hard to fight against the news instincts of your entire organization.
That's not the case in most companies. And, unless sensitive data is stolen, like credit card or Social Security numbers, companies have no obligation to tell anyone that they were hacked.
In fact, going public would only hurt a company's brand image and stock price. Plus, other hackers might read about the infiltration and get the idea that the company has weak security and is a prime target for their own efforts.
So what happens is that companies make a huge effort to protect personally identifiable information. After all, if it is hacked, the consequences are immediate, severe -- and very expensive. According to the latest report from Symantec and the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of an enterprise data breach is $5.5 million, or about $194 per stolen record.
Losses due to Chinese hacking and similar attacks are less visible but more insidious in the long term.
Unfortunately, when you're looking for additional money in your security budget, it's easy to make a case for beefing up security around, say, customer credit card numbers. You can point to all the companies that have been in the news because of data breaches, and how much it cost them to deal with the breach.
When hackers are going after strategic information instead, the costs are less visible, and it's easy to postpone security upgrades until the next budget cycle.
Plus, you could argue that The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal were special cases, high-profile political targets. The Chinese government might have an interest in going after politically embarrassing news coverage. Or military secrets. But why would the government go after regular run-of-the mill companies?
One possible reason was pointed out to me today by Patrick Taylor, CEO of Oversight Systems, a company that provides risk management data analytics software.
The majority of Chinese companies in the Fortune 500 are state-owned enterprises, Taylor said.
There were 73 Chinese companies on the Fortune Global 500 list in 2012, second only to the US -- and 65 of them were state-owned.
I can't think of another country on the planet right now where the interests of business and government are that closely intertwined.
And yes, I do understand the irony of writing that after an election where corporate donations and government bailouts were a big political issue.
But when the US government winds up owning part of a company, there's a big outcry. When the Chinese government runs entire industries, sets business agendas, names political appointees as senior executives, and passes legislation to favor those companies -- that's just the way things are.
So if you're a company that is currently competing against Chinese firms, or might do so in the future, consider beefing up your security around your email systems and document storage.
For example, one attack vector used at the NYT was to trick employees into giving up their passwords and then logging into their accounts. One security technique that could work here is to ask for a second method of authentication when an employee logs in from a new device.
Many banks already do this, and most of the time you don't notice this security layer at all. When I do log in from a new device -- say, because I got a new computer or am logging in from a friend's house -- my bank sends me a one-time password via text message.
It's a very minor inconvenience for employees, but a significant security improvement for the enterprise.

You have curiously took it a step further than the security experts I have talked to, who were involved in the case. They are saying alleged yet. You spake as if it is for sure.
There is no way to positively tell who leads these attacks. Just because the incriminating server resides in China does not mean they were they ones controlling it. Until that can be proven, one had better not forget to use alleged.
Well, they say there are three sidestoa story: Your side, My side and thenthe truth. Here is China's response to the allegations:
"Even those with little understanding of the internet know that hacking attacks are transnational and concealable," said the signed Chinese-language commentary, which could not be found on the paper's English website.
"IP addresses simply do not constitute sufficient evidence to confirm the origins of hackers," it added.
The People's Daily accused the United States of fanning "fear of China" out of self-interest, saying that it has invoked national security as a justification for trade protectionism and economic sanctions.
The 'China threat'"America keeps labelling China as hackers, simply playing up the rhetoric of the 'China threat' in cyberspace, providing new justification for America's strategy of containing China," it said.
The article repeated the Beijing government's position that China is also a victim of hacking, saying that there were more attacks from US-based IP addresses on Chinese websites in December than from any other country.
Despite this, it said, "China did not draw simple inferences or hasty conclusions about the attack source".
There were attacks from 3 000 foreign IP addresses in the month, it added."
"That's not the case in most companies. And, unless sensitive data is stolen, like credit card or Social Security numbers, companies have no obligation to tell anyone that they were hacked.
In fact, going public would only hurt a company's brand image and stock price. Plus, other hackers might read about the infiltration and get the idea that the company has weak security and is a prime target for their own efforts."
Hi Maria,
I thought companies have an imposed federal obligation to report all cases of cyber attacks? While companies's may have a legitimate reason(s) not to disclosed cyber attacks, Ithink that such an attitude will undermine the overally fight against cyber crimes. Don't you think there are many important things we could learn from these disclosures andthen use to develop strategies to combat cyber attacks?
=MH : "These attackers are extremely sophisticated."
I see that all the time
and then when we get to the core of the matter the hack turns of to be basic and commonly used .
e.g. the RSA hack -- which was just a phish message using an infected flash object .
or as for the case of the wired editor -- someone pulls a Kevin Mitnick and just smooth talks the help desk out of the key information . That happened to Gregg Hoglund too as I recall .
=MK: "that heavily relies on standard business productivity and layout software, which traditionally isn't available for Linux."
i will have to conceede that to you for now: documents produced by LibreOffice (3.5) under Linux are being rejected by MSFT/Office (2010).
I have some dialogs going on this. It will probably resolve as MSFT had agreed to the ISO standards
certain software is only available for Windows . If I recall in the Google switch employees had to get special permission for a Windows system after the policy change .
the thing to do then would be to make sure any Windows system still running was not public facing .
I guess I'm not surprised a legal argument can be made out for the President having that power. Ironically, less than two years ago, the Pentagon made out an argument that cuberwar was the same as conventional war. Of course, that was to justify retaliation.
These attackers are extremely sophisticated. Do you think this attack will be linked th attacks to China? Any reports of where the attacks originated from?
I don't know which is a more terrifying scenario: That terrorist hackers destroy us or that our government destroys us in an effort to "save" us. Surely the same countries that, during times of traditional warfare, came up with, for example, the bouncing bomb (Britain) and the atomic bomb (US) when they felt this was what was absolutely needed, can develop a more secure network -- while simultaneously not stripping law-abiding citizens (and residents of allied nations) of their rights.
And what about the Twitter outage last week? Do we know whether that was the result of an attack?
Legal advisors, working in secret, say that the President has broad powers for a preemptive strike in case of cyber-attack. Apparently, here in the 21st Century, we've left the Constitution behind us.
fonstruistra - And the US's broad claims of surveillance problems make foreign businesses concerned about using American cloud service providers.

Lucas intro: It's a new year and that means a look ahead at what we'll see with interest rates on consumer products over the next 12 months. Joining me is Greg McBride, senior financial analyst for Bankrate.com, to provide the 2013 Interest Rate Forecast. Greg, let's start with mortgage rates. What does the year ahead look like?
Greg: I expect mortgage rates to stay at very low levels in 2013, which is conducive to more home sales and improvement in the housing market. If economic improvement continues, mortgage rates will trend higher, but I expect the 30-year fixed to stay under 4 percent for most of the year. Of course, if the economy falters, mortgage rates would move lower, but be careful what you wish for.
Lucas: What do you see on other consumer products, like credit cards, car loans and home equity?
Greg: It will be a good year on all three fronts. I don't see much movement in credit card rates, but it will still be an environment ripe for shopping around to get a better deal. I expect auto loan rates will be slightly lower, resetting record lows, and you'll still find those sub-3 percent rates if you're shopping around. And I expect we'll still see lower rates on home equity because stabilizing and rebounding home prices will have lenders competing for home equity business in a way we haven't seen since the waning days of the housing boom.
Lucas: That all sounds very positive. But is there any good news for savers?
Greg: Yields may not get much worse, but that's not to say they're going to get better. The only measurable improvement will be on the top-paying accounts, particularly savings accounts and money market deposit accounts, especially for banks that may see a run-off in deposits due to the expiration of the Transaction Account Guarantee program for large depositors. So be sure to shop around.
Lucas close: Thanks, Greg. Sounds like some opportunities exist for consumers in the year ahead and there is no better way to keep tabs on what is happening with interest rates than by visiting Bankrate.com. I'm Lucas Wysocki.

In June, the real money auction house made its way to Diablo
3. This means that gamers now have the option of buying and selling items using
real money, not just fake game currency or gold. This is pretty interesting and
convenient; players who don't wish to spend time trying to earn gold in farming
can buy items in the auction house for as low as $1.25 dollars in us currency.
There are two ways in which you can receive payment for
items sold in the real money auction house:
1. Payment via your battle.net account
When you sell items, Blizzard takes $1.00
and then deposit the remainder to your battle.net account. This money is solely
used for buying Blizzard products though. Once the money is added to the
account, you won't be able to withdraw it.
2. Payment via your PayPal account
The second method in which you can receive
payment for your items sold is to have it deposited directly into your PayPal
account. Blizzard does take $1.00 plus 15% of the total price of what ever is sold.
However, in this option players can do what ever they want with the money.
Regardless of whichever methods are chosen above, buyers
will pay the price listed for items. This seems to be a good system. Players
don't have to worry about finding time to farm for gold because they can simply
purchase affordable items with real money in the real money auction house.

Turkey Quesadilla
Recipe courtesy George Duran
- Ham on the Street
- 2 flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce
- 3 tablespoons grated Jack or Cheddar
- 2 tablespoons leftover stuffing
- 2 tablespoons cooked and chopped green beans
- 3 tablespoons chopped cooked turkey
- 1 teaspoon chopped jalapeno peppers
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
Place 2 tortillas on your board. Spread 1 with cranberry sauce and set aside. Sprinkle the cheese over the other one and crumble the stuffing on top. Add the green beans, turkey, and jalapeno peppers. Pick up the first tortilla and place it cranberry side down onto the filled one. Press gently but firmly to keep the quesadilla together.
Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and put it over medium heat. Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook until the bottom is lightly browned and the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Flip the quesadilla and cook it on the other side for another 2 minutes. Slide it onto a cutting board, cut it into wedges, and serve.

The video is of WRC3 on PS3 but the info on the left side is all for the PS2 version.
ha ha...reminds me of taking turns, racing with a mate, tight racing & making a mistake being sooooo frustrating! definitely the most competitive i've felt in 2 player gaming & oh so sweet when you're "in the zone." might finally have to re-visit the rally experience!
Looks great but I need to try it out myself first, I don't drive in third person camera personally so I can't feel the atmosphere inside the dashview.
Definitely will try it out, love WRC.
