Conspiracy to publish Wii budget titles in the U.S.
Data Design Interactive and U.S. Developer Conspiracy have announced a distribution agreement that will bring nine new Wii-exclusive titles to the U.S. this year. Most of the games seem to be knock-offs of more popular titles such as Mario Kart or the Harry Potter series, but this Ninjabread Man game has our attention. No release date or prices have been set, but the games have been marketed at budget prices in the UK, so we can likely expect the same in the States.

I have enjoyed the car shows in LIvermore and would like to see some in Pleasanton, but there are problems. My son says he will not take his car to a street show because people do not seem to know how to keep their hand off of the cars. They push strollers and don't pay attention to what they are bumping into . Children are running around the cars and no one is paying attention to them. Yes, street shows can be fun, but not if your paint job gets ruined or you end up with dents.

Mike Beatz - 50/50
Artist: Mike Beatz
Producer: Mike Beatz
Album: I'm Thirsty Mixtape [Hosted by DJ Absolut]
Avg Rating: 4.4 ( 25 votes )
Featured in late June, Mike Beatz' Crooks met a mixed reception in the Booth; though readers praised the established producer's street-certified boardwork, many doubted if he could cut it on the mic. Now, Beatz is back on our frontpage with mixtape single 50/50, a track he's hoping will turn the skeptics into devotees. This time around, the artist takes a decidedly different approach on the mic and behind the boards. Over his own string-heavy, soul-sampled boardwork, Mike expresses gratitude to a female who's held him down through thick and thin, promising to do the same for her once his grind finally pays off. The theme's an undeniably fresh one – when's the last time you heard a guy spit about being financially supported by his girl? – and Beatz' heartfelt rhymes may change a few minds regarding his prospects as an emcee. If this track's got you hooked, you're sure to find more to your liking on Mike Beatz' DJ Absolut-hosted I'm Thirsty mixtape, set to hit the 'net this October.

Smokers banned from becoming foster parents
Related Articles
Published: 29 October 2008
Redbridge council is thought to be the first in the country to implement the rules, despite a shortage of 2,000 foster carers across the capital.
The move is aimed at limiting children's exposure to the effects of passive and second-hand smoke from cigarettes, cigars and pipe tobacco.
The new smoking policy, to be voted on next week, will apply to all foster carers except family members who are known as "private foster carers".
From this year all new applicants who smoke will be advised at an early stage of the process that their smoking habits will be taken into consideration along with other health issues. But from 2010 there will be an absolute ban on new foster carers who smoke.
All existing carers will have a discussion about smoking at their annual review and during home visits.
Those wishing to give up will be given support and advice from their supervising social worker and information on the effects of passive smoking.
Rules will be particularly strict for children under five, those with a disability who are unable to play outside or those with respiratory problems.
Michael Stark, cabinet member for children's services, said: "While the council recognises the proven skills and abilities of its carers who smoke, it is essential that the health of our looked-after children is protected.
"Unlike adults, children have little choice about whether or not to be in a smoky environment, so I hope the cabinet will take the decision to limit the harmful effects this drug can have." Latest advice from the NHS says people who breathe second-hand smoke are at risk of the same diseases as smokers including cancer and heart disease because second-hand smoke contains 4,000 toxic chemicals.
Director of tobacco studies at Cancer Research, Professor Robert West, said: "Smoking around children can exacerbate asthma, increase childhood cancers and make them more susceptible to respiratory problems.
"Fostering is a difficult area and, although it sounds harsh, I think this ban is a good thing. On balance you have to go with the health of the child."
However smokers' right group Forest said the proposals were being made by "health fascists".
Spokesman Neil Rafferty said: "There are many millions of smokers who would make brilliant foster parents. It's really troubling. Next they'll be banning obese people for setting a bad example. Where will it end?
Other councils have said that while they support the ethos of a ban, they do not want to discourage carers.

Ron Arad's Curtain Call at the Roundhouse
Internationally renowned artist, architect and designer, Ron Arad, has invited his favourite artists, musicians and friends to create unique works for a 360 degree video projection installation at the Roundhouse, London. Bloomberg are the primary sponsor.
Blitz Communications Ltd has been commissioned to provide the technology to bring Ronâs design concept to fruition. The installation takes the form of a curtain made from 5,600 silicon rods, 8.1m high, creating an 18m diameter 360 degree canvas for film, live performance and audience interaction.
Blitz installed twelve Barco RLM W8 projectors which are mounted on the truss ring above the silicon rod curtain. Each of these projects a portrait image 8.1m high by 5m wide, overlapped to produce a seamless 360 degree display at 13,520 by 1,920 pixels. Media delivery and control is implemented using twelve Dataton WATCHOUT display PCs networked to a Watchout control server. Whilst the artistâs works have been created at the above resolution and loaded onto the Dataton WATCHOUT system, there is also provision for twelve HD SDI external video feeds as part of the programme which features a 360 degree live video input via six HD cameras.
A separate 6m diameter control area has been created using twelve Panasonic HD 20 series plasma screens, allowing the operator to monitor the live content remotely.
Paul Hutton, MD of Blitz Communications, comments, âWhen I first met with Ron, he had installed a test rig in his studio in Chalk Farm Road. He asked if I thought it would work on a much larger scale and I told him that, in theory, it could be achieved. He placed his faith in us and it was our job to deliver a projection and content delivery system that would bring his design idea to life.â?
Ron Arad says, âWhen I thought about the design I knew it was going to be unique and different. The Roundhouse is a circular building so the installation had to celebrate this form. I had an idea of how it was going to look but the end result has far exceeded my expectations. It has been a great journey!â?
In support of this, Fredrik Svahnberg, Marketing & Communications Manager at Dataton says: "This breathtaking 360-degree installation that uses WATCHOUT is simply stunning and we're proud to be involved with our partner Blitz Communications."
Curtain Call at the Roundhouse is open to the public until 29th August 2011.

St. Louis Blues Need To Improve Communication Between General Manager and Coach
St. Louis Blues forward Ryan Reaves seems to have regained his spot in the lineup, as the 27 year old is dressing for his second straight contest after being a healthy scratch for the previous two. The benching acted as a wake-up call for Reaves, who had a bad stretch of play, but it's a bit offsetting when you consider that he has the longest contract of any forward on the team.
Under the new ownership of Tom Stillman, the Blues have broken a rather longstanding trend and been big spenders. While it's nice that management is fully devoting themselves to winning, how much of that spending is actually merited?
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Blues coach Ken Hitchcock made a statement concerning his relationship with general manager Doug Armstrong, which could be considered a bit disturbing by some, saying, "I don't like to even know what's being considered or talked about. I feel like if I have any information, I might look at the player differently, might coach him differently, might react differently…I don't want to know." While this comment was made while talking about the rumors surrounding players who have a chance of being traded, specifically forward Chris Stewart, the recent trends surrounding the Blues' lineups and roster activity indicate that maybe this applies to how the team is approaching in-house spending as well.
The most substantial evidence to support this claim involves the team's financial commitment to the "CPR" line (Adam Cracknell, Chris Porter and Reaves), which brought them a high amount of success down the stretch last season. While the Blues have upped their investment in all three of these players over the past year, none of them are being placed in a situation to succeed by Hitchcock at the moment.
Porter has been the biggest bust of the three during 2013-14. After spending six years in the Blues organization, he broke out in 2012-13 by registering eight points in 29 games and providing a valuable presence on the boards. The Blues promptly rewarded him with a two-year, one-way contract that pays him $675,000 per season.
Management's opinion of him obviously changed quickly though, as they went out and signed veteran Brenden Morrow while assigning Porter back to the AHL in advance of the season. Porter has been up with the team on two separate occasions to provide injury relief and has skated in 10 games this season, but that is certainly not the kind of value the organization must have envisioned him providing when they chose to give him a multi-year, one-way deal. It sent a message when the Blues had an open spot on their roster following an injury to Reaves, yet decided to operate at less than full capacity rather than recalling Porter immediately. Obviously, they don't like the way his contract is affecting the salary cap, as they placed Porter on waivers early in the season in an attempt to try to get him another NHL job. Porter now seems to have been passed up on the organizational depth chart by 20-year-old Dmitrij Jaskin, and it's possible that he will not get another chance to contribute to the team until rosters expand after the trade deadline.
Cracknell, a longtime minor leaguer who was given a one-year, $600,000 one-way contract, has had a slightly more favorable situation, but certainly not one befitting of a player with a one-year deal. Despite spending the majority of the season on the active roster, he was inserted into the lineup just 17 times and was frequently passed over for more untested players like Jaskin. When the team decided to stick with eight defensemen several weeks ago, Cracknell was made expendable and sent back to the AHL.
Though Reaves has delivered an impact this year, he may end up being the worst investment if current trends continue. The Blues signed him to a four-year, $4.5 million deal last month, but seeing as how Reaves had lost his spot before Vladimir Sobotka's injury forced him back into the lineup, it makes you wonder whether Hitchcock and Armstrong were on the same page regarding his long-term potential.
All in all, it's difficult to complain about the Blues considering that they have been so successful during 2013-14. But with as tight as they have gotten with the salary cap, you have to wonder if they can keep the success up without becoming more careful with their spending.

"Master?" The Chimopteran waited at attention for further orders.
"Yes." It took one enormous stride for Maximillian to cover the distance to the main tactical display. "Launch in thirty seconds. Send the signal to the droid's machine mind to expect a friendly human delegation on arrival. It is to spend as little time as possible dealing with their inane formalities."
"Yes master," the Chimopteran saluted, but did not leave Maximillian's side.
"What is it?"
"The ah…" O'Ronry struggled for a diplomatic way to bring up the subject of the bounty hunter. "The…independent contractor has also requested permission to launch his vessel."
Maximillian swung his gaze dramatically towards O'Ronry, the twin slits concealing his optic sensors flashing red with menace.
"Explain the maintenance difficulties that we are experiencing with the outer bay door."
"B-but master, we ah…we aren't experiencing-"
A huge gauntleted hand fell heavily on O'Ronry's shoulder.
"Explain the maintenance difficulties," Maximillian tightened his grip and was pleased to hear the Chimopteran's shoulder dislocate, "that we are experiencing with the outer bay door."
"Ahh!" Cried O'Ronry. "Y-yes master."
The Chimopteran trotted towards the command and control center where a number of other uniformed Chimopterans huddled around the main control banks. A few cast nervous glances towards Maximillian. With grim satisfaction he pretended not to notice.
Several seconds later the bridge deck shuddered beneath his metal-shod feet as the drop torpedo containing the mimetic hunter blasted from tube six. The drop torpedo was a sub-light cloaking torpedo nearly invisible and shielded from even the most sophisticated detection methods. It was normally used for stealth raids, and was exorbitantly expensive, but Memnoc had assured Maximillian it was in the best interest of trade relations with the humans. Maximillian had not even bothered requesting an atmospheric flash warhead be included "just in case".
Whatever it took. Whatever humiliating lengths he had to go to in order to placate Memnoc and the humans. It would all be worth it if he was the one that finally brought down the nefarious Linus Guthry.

Julianne Hough Returns to 'Dancing With the Star' and Slams Former Partner Mark Ballas (VIDEO)
Oct 08, 2013 11:21 AM EDT | By Dina Exil
Julianne Hough, former "Dancing With the Stars" pro and two-time winner, guest judged Monday's performances.
Hough had some choice words for her former competitive partner Mark Ballas following his foxtrot with Christina Milian.
Like Us on Facebook
"I really wanted to see you shine," Hough said. "I danced with Mark. You have to stand in front to make sure you're seen."
"We shine together," Milian responded.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Milian, who earned a 24 for her Foxtrot, addressed Hough's remarks once more, after the show, saying that she and her partner took the high road.
"As long as we know that we did a fantastic job, that makes me happy," Milian said.
For his part, Ballas said Hough's words were a bit of a shock. He said he tried to take it in stride, but admited to being a little bothered by the veiled attack.
"She put a little sting on me, but that's okay," Ballas said. "That's how she felt. It is what it is."
Hough appeared on the show for the first four seasons, but left the series to pursue a singing and acting career. Hough appears on the show frequently to support her older brother, Derek, who is currently paired with Amber Riley of "Glee".
Hough is slated to star in the upcoming film "Paradise".

Have $3.9M handy? Buy a ghost town
Updated On: Aug 02 2012 11:51:34 AM CDT
A family in rural Utah is hoping that someone with a frontier spirit and deep pockets will snatch up their 706-acre ghost town for the bargain price of $3.9 million.
Real estate agent Mike Metzger told the Associated Press that the town of Woodside dates back to the early 1900s, when it was a bustling water stop for steam engines.
While it was once occupied by up to 300 residents, it's now home to a couple in their 60s and a pair of free-range llamas.
Metzger said the town features a cold-water geyser, a service station with a U.S. Post Office inside and a possible connection to Wild West history -- historians said Butch Cassidy and his gang once used the nearby canyon country as a hideout.
"You can be the sheriff, the judge and executioner of your own town," he told the AP. "You can be mayor. You can be whatever you wanted. It would be amazing."
Metzger said the town's owner, Roy Pogue, placed the property up for sale because he can't take care of the land anymore, and because his wife misses neighbors.

Start your barbecue with our quality charcoal grills
When the weather is nice and sunny, a barbecue is a great way to enjoy the outdoors. While some prefer gas grills, many people still stand by traditional charcoal grills as the best way of cooking up tasty outdoor meals. The smell of burning charcoal alone can bring back memories of backyard meals from the past. Grills impart a smoky flavor to the food that is hard to imitate with anything else.
Charcoal grills reach very high temperatures, giving you the charred flavor on your favorite meats. When it comes to charcoal grills there are a variety of key features to look for like an adjustable fire pan, temperature gauge and dampers for heat control. Choose a portable charcoal grill with wheels and casters that allow you to easily move it around the backyard. Portable grills also make it easy to transport to and from tailgates and summertime parties at your friends' houses.
Grab your cooking tools and get grilling. Whether you're looking for a portable grill you can bring with you or a charcoal BBQ grill to leave in your backyard, you can find the BBQ charcoal grill that fits your lifestyle at Sears.

Classes can be any day of the week (even weekends) in the morning, afternoon or evening.
In certain circumstances, if your home or office is not suitable, you can take your classes at the trainer's office. All course materials are provided.
We will be happy to offer a free language consultancy before the start of your language training course. This normally takes the form of a telephone conversation in which your specific language training requirements are discussed. We talk about the business situations in which you might be required to use your new language skills, and what work-specific terminology you would like to be able to use in the target language. We can also advise on the best method of learning for you to achieve your goals, and then design a language training course which will enable you to achieve them.
Judith is an excellent teacher, always positive, and engaged in my success.
Our Spanish courses in Philadelphia are taught on a one-on-one basis and will help you improve your business communication skills immensely. Once established business etiquette and salutations have been covered, particular relevant areas of study are highlighted, leading on to the improvement of reading and writing skills. At the end of the course learners will be comfortable communicating via telephone and email in Spanish. Of course, it is then up to you to decide how you will use these skills to advance your career.
With a Philadelphia based one-on-one general Spanish course from Language Trainers, you can expect to improve rapidly - no matter what your specific needs may be. Once the basics are in the place you can decide what would be of most to you and learn it. This will make the learning experience more enjoyable as well as more useful. The fact that we offer our Spanish classes on a One-on-One basis means that you can learn the words and phrases you need in a comfortable and relaxed environment.
Our Spanish courses are also available for small groups studying together (Two-to-One Spanish Course or In-Company Small Group Spanish Course). All participants must have the same language needs, be able to study at the same time at the same place and be at the same level. All participants should be booked at the same time. While 8 students is the maximum recommended by Language Trainers we can cater for up to 12 people on our In-Company Taster Spanish Course.

They jumped the car yesterday and let it run for about 30 minutes. It over heated and know there is no power to the cab. I have load tested the battery, it is good. Checked the fuses under the hood, all are good and have power. Checked and cleaned the terminals to the starter, have power there but won't start. I didn't get any power to the inside fuse box. Ground on tester may have bad connection. Any guidance?

Maybank unlikely to buy Bank of Ayudhya stake
Publication Date : 28-09-2012
Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank), the biggest bank in Malaysia by asset size, is unlikely to purchase the 25.3 per cent stake in Thailand's fifth largest bank, the Bank of Ayudhya pcl, if it were up for sale.
Analysts said that Maybank would be "better off" with an outright purchase of an entire bank.
"We gather that the 25.3 per cent stake currently owned by General Electric Co (GE) may not allow Maybank to assume absolute control of the Thai bank," said Cheah King Yoong, banking analyst at Alliance Research.
It was reported on Wednesday that GE had sold a 7.6 per cent stake in Bank of Ayudhya and may consider selling the rest of its stake, which amounts to 25.3 per cent, to a strategic investor.
The 7.6 per cent stake was sold to institutional investors.
Earlier, Maybank together with the New Zealand Banking Group were reported to be among banks that were approached by GE after it wanted to review its 32.9 per cent stake in Bank of Ayudhya, prompting speculation Maybank may be interested in the Thai bank.
A Maybank spokesman declined to comment when asked whether it would be interested in acquiring the 25.3 per cent stake if it were up for sale.
"Maybank like its banking peers is also conserving capital in order to meet the new capital requirements under Basel III which will be implemented early next year.
"Hence, we do not foresee it utilising a significant portion of its capital to acquire a non-majority stake in Bank of Ayudhya," said Cheah.
GE's 25.3 per cent stake in the bank is worth some US$1.65 billion.
Still, other analysts pointed out that Maybank does hold minority stakes of 20 per cent each in banks in Vietnam and Pakistan.
In 2008, it purchased a 15 per cent stake in Pakistan's MCB Bank Ltd from Nishat Group for 2.17 billion ringgit ($707.88 million) with an option to increase that stake to 20 per cent after a year. It also bought in the same year a 15 per cent stake in Vietnam's An Binh Commercial Joint Stock Bank for 430 million ringgit ($140.27 million) and later increased the stake to 20 per cent.
Meanwhile, Maybank has also reiterated its interest for a stronger foothold in the Thai banking market. Currently, it has a presence in Thailand via Maybank Kim Eng Securities (Thailand).
Its president and chief executive officer Abdul Wahid Omar said recently that the bank was waiting for "right timing and price".
"We remain interested in Thailand. We are always looking for an opportunity, although we are not actively looking for it," he was quoted as saying.
Maybank has said it intends to have a complete banking presence in Asean by 2015, in line with its target to become a regional financial player.

Sheetz may buy old Heights Elementary School for $1M
The old Heights Elementary School might be replaced by a Sheetz Convenience Store sometime next year.
Highlands School Board agreed to hold a vote at its Oct. 15 meeting on authorizing Solicitor Ira Weiss and Business Manager Jon Rupert to negotiate a $1 million purchase agreement with RBG Development Group of Pittsburgh.
On Monday night, Weiss said RBG Development, which expressed interest in the Heights building in September, is acting as the agent for Altoona-based Sheetz.
The board discussed the status of Heights and of the former administrative center along 11th Avenue. Both buildings are in Harrison and have been closed by the school board, which is trying to sell the properties.
Weiss said that Sheetz's interest in the property is contingent upon getting the proper approvals and permits. That includes a change to commercial zoning for the 2.34-acre site, which sits in an R-1 residential zone.
While he said the Harrison Commissioners haven't taken any action on the property, Weiss said, "The township has given indications that they support the development there."
"The price, which is $1 million, is substantially more than we could get on the open market," Weiss said.
However, there will be restrictions on how the district can spend the money, he said.
"They have to use the money for debt service or capital projects," Weiss said. "That's a requirement of the school code."
The site will remain in a school zone, as Highlands Middle School sits across Freeport Road from it.
That could raise some safety concerns since Sheetz stores, which include multiple gasoline pumps, attract a lot of traffic.
Weiss said those concerns would have to be worked out through the permit approval process with the township and the school district.
Lisa Colautti, Weiss' associate, said RBG is no stranger to this type of situation.
"They have done developments with other school districts, so they know the state school code," she said.
Weiss said a negotiated sale of school property has to be approved by the Allegheny County Courts, which will require a hearing, in addition to the process for getting the zoning and permit approvals through the township.
Asked how long it might take before the path is cleared for a deal, Weiss said, "I would say at least nine months."
As for the former administrative center, the board has decided to sell by working through a Realtor. That decision was made because the district advertised the building for sale but received no bids.
The board instructed Rupert to get proposals from three Realtors and bring them back to the board for a decision.

VMware has acquired one more company: Shavlik. This acquisition did not come as much of a surprise to me but is an interesting purchase for VMware. There are quite a few Security as a Service vendors that would make sense for VMware to purchase and Shavlik is one of them. The difference between the other vendors and Shavlik is that VMware has a existing track record with Shavlik as Shavlik is integral in two of VMware's existing products: VMware Go and VMware Update Manager. Shavlik provides a very important patch management system for these existing products and is one line of defense in the security space. Are there other plans for Shavlik? Or this is a way to lock in one set of tools?

If we implement performance and other management tools, we often need to expose part of our all important virtualization management network to others. But how do we do this safely, securely, with minimal impact to usability? Why do we need to this is also another question. You just have to take one look at the Virtualization ASsessment TOolkit (Vasto) to realize the importance of this security requirement. But the question still exists, how do you implement other necessary tools within your virtual environment without impacting usability?

Federated Clouds? Possible?
• • 0 Comments
Mike DiPetrillo's post entitled VMware is Building Clouds sparked some interesting thoughts and discussion about what it means to have federated clouds and how do you define such federation? Is federated required to make 'cloud' ubiquitous or are we already there? But is the discussion really about federated clouds or simplistic data object movement between the VMs or about cloud management?

How to Use the Cloud for Development, Safely
• • 0 Comments
When CloudFoundry was announced, my first thought was this is a nightmare waiting to happen. Why do I think this, because I was not thinking about Open Source developers but enterprise developers and the biggest issue with enterprise development is that the data used by developers is either made up data, but more often than not is actual production data. So the question becomes how can such data be protected when using PaaS public clouds?

Harris Trusted Cloud – Closing the Gap
• • 0 Comments
On the 4/7/2011 Virtualization Security Podcast, we were joined by Wyatt Starnes of Harris Corporation. Wyatt is the Vice President of Advanced Concepts of Cyber Integrated Solutions at Harris. What this means, is that Wyatt is one of the key folks of the Harris Trusted Cloud initiative. Trust is a funny word, and we have written about that in the past. Harris' approach is unique in that they are attempting to ensure integrity of all components of the cloud down to the code level, not just the network with their target being the hosted private cloud and NOT the secure multi-tenant public cloud.

Acquisitions by VMware and RSA Changing the Landscape
• • 0 Comments
There were two announcements over the last few days that struck me as quite important to the virtualization community. While some may question this statement, the long reaching effects of these purchases will impact virtualization and cloud computing in not so distant future. In fact, these purchases could add a whole new layer to vSphere as we know it today. Which for VMware is a good thing. They need to continue to innovate to stay ahead of the pack. The purchases I talk about are:
VMware purchasing/taking over control of EMC Mozy
RSA purchasing NetWitness

Multiple Hybrid Clouds Kludged Together? — Cloud Architecture
• • 2 Comments
With the diversity of cloud's available today, data being sent from one to another could appear to be a hodge-podge of security. As one colleague put it recently when I asked what he was expecting to maintain integrity of data in motion between clouds:
"… what kind of kludge can things end up being when you have multiple connections to multiple hybrid clouds all doing different things" — Steve Beaver
So how does data transfer between the clouds? Is it a kludge? or can it be done using a uniform security policy, procedures, and protocols while maintaining Integrity and Confidentiality and auditability?
