Behind The Scenes with Salma Hayek
Photo Credit: Ruven Afanador
Wig Out: Hayek looked fabulous sporting the season's bob, but ultimately it was no match for her own gorgeous locks and brand-new bangs. Her skin literally glowed--little did we know a newish pregnancy was probably the reason! How else to explain her wolfing down a burger and fries between shots?
Bags of Style: Hayek arrived at the shoot still riding high on her Golden Globes triumph (she is the executive producer of ABC's Ugly Betty, which snagged the Best Comedy Series and Best Actress awards). While taking over the world, she totes a YSL bag in buttery-soft white leather.

Cook: Zero Dark Gospel
Comparing the evil in America to a time of war is unbelievable. Rather, compare it to the torture and murder of human beings aborted. Water boarding or being vaporized by a drone is nothing compared to being sucked thru a vacuum and dismembered in a jar and discarded as toxic trash. The numbers are astounding. Ending this mass murder of baby's is the first step in " and may GOD bless America" again. Folks, do you really think these killings are going unnoticed by their creator? Behold! Our judge is standing at the door. Believe or not, our judgement is near. By the way. I'll never forget the images of our soldiers being dragged thru the streets via motorcycle, and were talking about water boarding!
Sandy Hook Elementary
Instruments of murder, Guns. Cars. Knives. Bats. Poisons. Rocks. Water. Pillows. Arrows. Pipe bombs (plumbing supplies). Oh! I almost forgot, HUMAN HANDS.
Chattanooga mayor's regional sewer idea stinks
Same story, except replace the word sewer with police and fire departments.
In other words Rick, how are you going to take kids from irresponsible parent(s) whom created unplanned human beings and live in an environment of chaos, violence and very little supervision and make "A" students out of them? These failing schools are basically one big detention halls where the teachers spend more time being correction officers than teachers. The latest gang study revealed that public schools are a breeding ground for gangs. The state rewards these irresponsibles with perks. Housing,food, and the more humans you make the more your welfare check. Now that our society has created this monster and have set is loose into our schools, Mr Cook is wanting to know how are you going to make it all good. I remember in my first grade class my teacher always saying " I don't give out rewards for bad behavior ". These irresponsible folks living their lives behaving badly expect housing, food,healthcare, transportation. It's obvious we can now add raising their kids properly and making them "A" students to the list.

Senator David Norris, who is in the middle of a campaign to seek nomination for the upcoming presidential election, wants the new terminal at the airport, which is currently called "Terminal 2," to be changed.
Norris, an expert on all things Joycean, was at the terminal on Bloomsday (June 16) to give a reading from Ulysses.
"Dublin has been recognized as a UNESCO City of Literature, but what a boring name for a terminal at an airport: Terminal 2 -- Can we not do better?" he said according to the Evening Herald.
Bad rap for presidential candidate David Norris
David Norris now target of Westboro Baptist Church extremists who picket US Army funerals
New Dublin Airport terminal has big impact for American visitors
Joyce told those present that Jimmy Deenihan, the minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, had already pledged his support for the initiative, and that he also planned to ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport Leo Varadkar and the Seanad to do the same.
Fellow Senator Fidelma Healy Eames is supporting Norris, saying the name change to Joyce would be apt given that Dublin is a UNESCO city of literature.
The decision to change the name of the airport rests with the Irish administration.
"It would be the Government that would decide. At the moment, it's just Terminal 1 and Terminal 2," said Siobhan Moore of the Dublin Airport Authority.
Efforts have been made in the past to change the name of the airport, but none have come to fruition.
"Ultimately it would be a matter for Government, a Cabinet decision, but we would be interested in hearing proposals," says Nick Miller, spokesman for the Department of Transport.

After several incidents over the past few months, including a recent arrest at the middle school, the issue of gangs in Mineola has moved to the forefront of village and school district topics.
The Mineola High School girls varsity softball team won the Long Island Class "B" Championship on Tuesday, June 9, at Mitchell Park. Before a crowd of over 400 enthusiastic fans (mostly from Mineola), the Lady Mustangs defeated the Suffolk champs from Islip by a score of 3-1.
Seven MAA players competed in the Nassau/Staten Island Diamond Skills Competition held May 23 in Baldwin. Diamond Skills is a national competition for youth baseball players sponsored by the Fleer trading card company and Major League Baseball.
By now, most of you know that the Lady Mustang softball team has won the Long Island Class B softball title. They played for the State Championship on Saturday, June 13. It has been a truly spectacular year for the girls. This team has a uniqueness unlike any other team in recent Mineola HS history. Behind the headlines of Katie Zunno's impressive performances on the mound is a seasoned team of talented ballplayers who came together this year to provide the offense and defense that wins ball games. The leadership came from captains Kristina Tsabasis and Katie Zunno, and also from the depth of the personalities of each player on the bench. They all contributed to making this team unbeatable. The solid infield of Theresa Sommer at third, Kristin Cusato at short, Kristina Tsabasis at second and Erin Cloghessy at first. The outfield that rarely gave up an extra base hit made up of Leslie Brown in center, Sarah Waters in right and Kristin Cunningham and Tracee Eager in left. And let us not forget the player who caught every one of Katie Zunno's 59 MPH fastballs, catcher Lauren Georges. The team also had players that Coach Vitale could call upon at any time to fill in wherever needed, and on a moment's notice. Players like these are important to a team, and their roles on and off the field sometimes make the difference in the chemistry of a winning team. This year, these role players were Lauren Scala, Melissa Danielson, Tara Georges and Mary Beth Brennan.

Over this past weekend, Courtney and I had the opportunity to photograph a very cool wedding at a private residence with a swanky hotel reception. Kelly and Chris (the yellow ballon engagement session in an earlier post) rented out a fun hotel in Palm Springs where they could party and swim throughout the night. Kelly had a lot of details in mind: escort cards attached to potted succulent plants, a self service photobooth setup, lemony desert table, and s'mors over a crystal fire pit to name a few. Courtney and I had a great time working with a fun planner/florist named Megan who executed the details and the flow of the event with ease, and Eric, the DJ, kept the party going. We shot a ton of images and will be spending the next week combing through the edit. However, we are just so excited that we couldn't wait to share. There's a lot of images in the post and even more in the gallery below. Stay tuned for their slideshow!
p.s. Courtney reminded me to mention that Kelly's dress is a Monique Lhuillier.

North Shore-LIJ Libraries
Impact On Patient Care Study
A 1991 scientific study conducted in fifteen hospitals in the Rochester, NY, area revealed that 80% of 208 participating physicians said they handled some aspect of their patient's care differently as a result of information provided by their hospital library [1]. Nearly all (96.5%) of the physicians said that information provided by their hospital librarians contributed to better-informed clinical decisions [2].
Overall, physicians rated the information provided by the hospital library more highly than that provided by diagnostic imaging, lab tests, or discussions with colleagues [3]. These findings confirm a previous study of physicians in Chicago, in which 95% of the respondents said that information from the library contributed to higher quality care for their patients [4].
Physicians reported the following changes in specific aspects of patient care as a result of the information provided by the library [5]:
- 29.3% reported changing diagnosis
- 50.5% reported changing choice of tests
- 45.2% reported changing choice of drugs
- 19.2% reported reducing length of hospital stay
- 71.6% reported changing advice given to patients
Physicians also said that the information provided by the library helped them avoid the following in the patients they treated [6]:
- 19.2% reported avoiding patient mortality
- 8.2% reported avoiding hospital-acquired infection
- 21.2% reported avoiding surgery
- 45.1% reported avoiding additional tests or procedures
- 28.3% reported avoiding additional outpatient visits
Importance to the Hospital
Immediate access to up-to-date patient care information is essential for informed clinical and management decision-making. Qualified health science librarians, aided by computer technology, can provide a broader range of information and locate needed information more quickly than other hospital employees or medical professionals doing the research on their own
Eighty-five percent of the physicians in the Rochester study reported that the information provided by their librarians saved them time, and 93% reported that the information provided them with new knowledge, with resulting cost savings and improved patient care for their institutions [7].

The pilot reported that after leveling off at cruise altitude the engine suddenly quit producing power. He immediately switched the fuel selector from the right fuel tank to the left fuel tank, pushed the throttle and mixture to full open and full rich, and activated the electric boost pump. Unable to restart the engine, the pilot initially turned toward a local airport but realized that he couldn't make that airport; he then diverted to an interstate highway. During the touchdown between cars, the airplane veered against the center guard rail and skidded about 500 feet before coming to rest in the median. The left wing, empennage and left horizontal stabilizer were substantially damaged. During the postaccident examination of the engine, no mechanical malfunctions or failures were noted that would have precluded normal operation. The reason for the loss of engine power could not be determined.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

LI farmers discuss effects of global warming
The impacts of global warming will be a mixed blessing for Long Island farmers, who already are seeing signs of a longer growing season and hints that midsummer irrigation will become more important as weather patterns continue to change.
That prediction was made Thursday at the Long Island Agricultural Forum by David W. Wolfe, who co-chairs the Cornell University Climate Change Program Work Team and is an expert in crop and soil ecology.
Wolfe noted that zone change is already taking place, with the traditional growing zones for plants and vegetables moving north, reflecting a longer growing season. But, he cautioned, along with the warmer weather, farmers also are starting to see new invasive species of weeds and other pests take hold.
But the impact could be different for every crop. "Red wine grapes will benefit," Wolfe said.
Many of Long Island's farmers, especially on the North Fork, do not use irrigation systems because of their cost. But Wolfe said farmers likely will rely increasingly on such systems if extended spells of hot, dry weather threaten harvests.
The Agricultural Forum, which ended Friday, is an annual conference held on the eastern campus of Suffolk County Community College. It brings farmers together with businesses that serve the industry — from bankers and insurance specialists to suppliers of seed and farm equipment, many of whom set up displays in the college cafeteria.
Farmers also could get credits for pesticide recertification, and information on conservation programs and estate planning from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This was the 32nd annual forum, which is sponsored by the Long Island Farm Bureau.
This year's forum also had special workshops on sustainable agriculture, greenhouse and nursery management, potato and vegetable production, and environmental landscaping and gardening.

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla.- Lee County Sheriff's deputies are searching for the suspects accused of burglarizing a home on the 24000 block of Claire St. Monday afternoon.
Deputies were called to the scene of the burglary-in-progress, just before 4:00 p.m. Upon arrival, the victim told the deputies she had left her home just before noon on Monday and arrived back home around 3:50 p.m. to a red pickup truck in her driveway. She told the deputies she didn't think much of the strange vehicle, as she was in the process of getting estimations from roofing companies. The victim said she even waved to the driver, and he pulled away. In the process, the victim saw a man run from the back of the residence and jump into the moving truck. The victim turned and noticed her front door was wide open, so she called 911.
The victim was able to see "760" on the truck's license plate. She described the man who ran from the back of the residence as being heavyset with blond hair. He was wearing baggy shorts and a long-length T-shirt.
The victim estimates nearly $12,000 in property was taken from inside her home.
Deputies said the suspect entered the residence by prying open the front door. They rummaged through numerous cabinets and drawers, before fleeing out the sliding glass door.
If you have any information regarding this incident, you are asked to call SWFL Crime Stoppers at 1-800-780-TIPS.

Drive-by exploit slurps sensitive data from Android phones
A computer scientist has found a vulnerability in the latest version of Google's Android operating system that can be exploited to disclose sensitive user information. The data-stealing bug in Android 2.3, aka Gingerbread, allows attackers read and upload pictures, voicemail and other data stored on a handset's SD memory card, …
Fragmentation means customers on their own
Android fragmentation, the unwillingness of the vendors to update their Android-based kit regularly will mean your data will not be safe on Android ... especially since you have to download a program that only runs on Windows (AFAIK, could not find Mac equivalent - Linux?) to update SE's Android kit.
Have an updater app on the phone. Have themes. Vendors should be forced to support updates for two years at least ... and SLA for "by when" a new version "must" be on the phone.
They need to get their act together!
It would be good if Andoid did have an updater and vendors operated under an SLA such as that.
Unfortunately I don't see how Google can put the genie back in the lamp now that Android is out there and becoming pervasive. If they were going to try and place an updater on the device they would suddenly run in to the problem of Google having to be totally familiar with the hardware of each and every handset. I don't think that's going to happen. And I don't see how anyone could ever force the vendors (i.e. the networks, not the manufacturers) to stick to an SLA when they're not ultimately in control of the update cycle either.
It is clear Google did little or no thinking at all about the adoption and evolution of Android. They did think about it's usage - they want us to give all our data to them and their cloud so that they can make money charging for the service and apps, and showing us adverts. Unfortunately for them the full commercial potential of that is not going to be realised if Android gains a reputation as being a dodgy place to put all your really valuable data. For example, internet banking is great, but it's a scary enough thing to do even with OS updates, virus checkers, https, firewalls, etc. in place. Now imagine doing internet banking knowing that whatever protection measures are in place are probably buggy and aren't getting fixed? Who would do that?
Reputation is everything. Google will be keen for Android to have a good security reputation. Security researchers are keen to have a reputation for being able to find security problems. If Android starts looking easy to find problems with then expect security researchers to bundle in for the feast. The bug list will grow, and Android starts looking crap. The firey gaze of security researchers and hackers is a truly powerful force. They've put MS through the mill, and maybe MS are emerging stronger for it. There's no reason why Android won't be similary grilled, especially as anyone can see the source code (though in a way I suspect that the hacking tools developed to probe closed source systems like Windows are a more efficient way of attacking open systems like Linux than reading the Linux source code...)
Google also has to get serious about fixing bugs in older versions so that old handsets can be fixed. People are buying these expensive things on 2 year contracts; how pleased are they when six months in they're told that their roms are at the end of the line and that their expensive device is now dangerous to use in the intended way because all their data will get stolen? These things are not PCs, they can't have a bit more memory and a new disk thrown in like a desktop or laptop can. Bug fixing in only the latest version simply cuts off the millions of users who can't upgrade to shiny new hardware yet. How can Google fix that? Assuming the hardware remains too expensive to be disposable, they can't. Not at present, not without taking overall control of the firmware that actually ends up in the roms of peoples' handsets.
Which is exactly what Apple have done, and Microsoft too. MS might benefit significantly - Android has shown that there can be an Apple alternative, and MS might (might?) start looking like a safer alternative to Android. In a way it almost doesn't matter how buggy iOS and WP7 are at the moment; they have the potential to become less buggy (iOS less so than WP7 because Apple are also a hardware vendor and want you to upgrade). Android doesn't.
MS's ARM move could prove a smart thing. No matter what anyone thinks about MS they have come on leaps and bounds in addressing security problems, and are definitely better at it than Apple, Adobe, etc. They can leverage all those years of bug fixes with their Windows port to ARM, slap on the WP7 GUI on top instead of Windows desktop, and if they're lucky get instant step up in the mobile market place.
I agree that vendors should be forced to support updates but I'm not sure what you're talking about when you refer to a Windows-only updater app - my Android updates itself quite happily over the air - I very rarely plug it into any computer at all.
Can we have an Android icon yet?
Agree to an extent
There will always be vulnerabilities, especially in newer platforms.
However the network operators should be forced to push out firmware updates more frequently.
There is a software update program on the phone.
Problem is the network operators are so slow to push the updates out so they can do their precious branding!
I can understand a delay while the handset manufacturer does testing. But it took O2 an extra 5 months to release 2.2 after it had been made available by HTC for the Desire.
I wouldn't call it fragmentation, it's just they don't make any money giving you OS software but they do when you get a new phone.
Wrong Hans
"Android fragmentation, the unwillingness of the vendors to update their Android-based kit regularly will mean your data will not be safe on Android ... especially since you have to download a program that only runs on Windows (AFAIK, could not find Mac equivalent - Linux?) to update SE's Android kit."
Actually it will be perfectly safe, assuming you purchase phones from a company which supports their phones with firmware updates as necessary. I assume most corporate customers have pockets deep enough to entitle them to that level of support, and consumers can pick and choose from the various handset manufacturers.
We already know certain manufacturers are more forthcoming with updates than others - pick those if security updates are top priority. Sony Ericsson is one of the worst in providing updates and HTC is one of the better. Choose accordingly.
Android is probably higher risk than other phone OS's, by virtue of being such an attractively large target. I think it would be beneficial if Google & other stakeholders were to have some kind of security clearing house where issues could be addressed in a coordinated fashion. On this particular bug, it would seem sensible that phone finds a way to obfuscate the path to the SD card (thus making paths unguessable), or display some permission dialog before permitting access to a file.
I do agree that all phone manufacturers should be required to support their phones to some level. The guarantee that covers the physical phone should also cover the software including the fixing of any security / power / stability related issues.
. . . when I go elsewhere for a phone because your customer service and attitude sucks.
I'll be telling all my friends about it too.
Open Source operating systems
"Vendors should be forced to support updates for two years at least ... "
Forced. Hmm. By whom?
You see, the trouble with Open Source operating systems like Android is that is isn't really compatible with 'forcing', however well-intentioned.
You see 'forcing' isn't freedom, and as soon as you add a restriction to a open source project, users will fork off and use a less restrictive variant.
Now I'm not saying that open source is bad, and Apple with their extreme control is good. Gosh no. But I do think this is a useful lesson on the limitations of the open source model.
Re: Agree to an extent
"I can understand a delay while the handset manufacturer does testing. But it took O2 an extra 5 months to release 2.2 after it had been made available by HTC for the Desire."
Which is simply because that's not yet a competitive factor when most people make their purchasing decisions.
If enough of us factor that in when purchasing, then they will release the updates faster. They shouldn't be 'forced' to act faster, they should realise it's in their commercial interests to do so.
Abandon privacy all ye who enter here
Ditto everything Hans 1 said. And add extra because the built-in browser, while nifty and good-looking, is APPALLING when it comes to basic security issues. There's no filtering what can run on the browser (a la NoScript). There's no per-site preferences, scripting is either "on" or "off" (likewise Flash, etc). There's not even a way to view/edit/manage remembered passwords (if any). I will wait patiently for some version of Firefox for Android.
Right now marks my first week of owning an Android phone and it is pretty amazing compared to the sort of stuff I am used to. However it seems to me that the big flaw is Android is that it seems to be a case of some developers throwing in every single "awesome" feature they could think of, yet the system is not mature enough to have the features you really need. For example, using the Motoblur version as an example (and there, as Hans said, is fragmentation - there appears to be a huge lack of consistency between different brands), there is a useful "Data saver" to help me not burn silly amounts of data when on EDGE/3G. But the actual implementation is broken in that the news app will not sync a dozen RSS feeds, but the mail app will try to pull a 10Mb attachment to an email. It should, for a message that size, retrieve the headers and prompt if you really want to do that over mobile comms. But the system is immature. Far better for cool bells and whistles. Take for example to Market. You select an application, you get asked to accept the required permissions. Um, so where are the tick-boxes to say "you can read my SD card but you ain't touchin' my contacts list"? Why does the app have the right to "access files and data on SD card"? Why is there no sandbox like /sdcard/app/<appname> ? Maybe in a few years when people stop going "oh wow" and start thinking what they really want and need we'll see basic security and privacy issues tightened up. [and no, "rooting" the device is out of the question, these topics should be addressed "out of the box"]
I completely understand why Google, as an advertising playground, failed to address these points. But to provide a system with such a lack of thought for the end-users wishes and desires is, frankly, a bit shit. No, I do *not* want Facebook to track everywhere I go thanks to the "Like" button. No, I don't want any number of arbitrary scripts to be fetched and run (especially when out in the sticks, the net runs at around 10Kb/sec).
However, the title of this post, sums up my general opinion of Android so far. It is way too eager to share an awful lot of things with an awful lot of entities I don't know. I turned off the GPS because it was a bit disconcerting when a weather app started to ask me for a post code and after a moment of contemplation, told me where I was. Under my breath I told it where it could go... ;-)
So here we have yet another story of loaded links doing evil things. I guess it is a welcome change that it isn't Windows, but on the other hand you do wonder when Android will stop being feature bloat and start being core functionality. The fact that my (new) phone runs 2.1 and might some day run 2.2 while the devs are busy with 2.3 (and by then probably 2.5) shows part of the problems with the system. Perhaps half of my pet quirks are already fixed? And I'll see this when? When Motorola get around to it? Is that a "when" or is that an "if"?
How secure are these smart phones?
Since I have my doubts the data slurping behemoth known as google wants to be unable to slurp data from your android phone, how secure are they? I know iphones have had their vulnerabilities too, how secure are they? I'm really put off getting one for a while until there's some maturity and maybe security apps on them. Obviously pc os's have been around for ages and they still have their fair share of holes, but will owning a smart phone be like owning a house with the windows and doors locked, or like handing the keys to thieves in comparison?
Color me paranoid...
A bug that allows someone to slurp data off an android if they know who/what to look for?
Hmmm. So if I were Google, wouldn't I want to slurp your personal files and data that you have on your phone to better monitor and determine you usage needs and send you directed ads?
Yeah, I'm being paranoid, but this from a company that has tossed your personal privacy out the window with the bath water.
Yes paranoid
Google already have a way to gather info about you. They provide services that people use everyday and put them into phones as the default - search, maps, docs, email etc. There is no need to do something underhand for which they'd be flayed alive. Besides if they wanted to upload files, they could just embed some code into Maps or Gmail or similar which just grabbed it straight from the SD and uploaded it. I.e. there is no need for an exploit.
Any issue with paths in the browser is a security flaw, nothing more or less. A serious flaw but one which has a solution - don't upload of any kind without explicit user permission. A second level of security would be to prevent the browser accessing file:// urls under any circumstances, or at least create a small hash (e.g. 8 chars) which is randomly assigned to the phone and must be must be prepended to the path in the file:// url for it to function properly.
Google has ways, but can only gather information to a point.
Getting other ways also means collecting different information which may provide more insight in to you and your habits.
In reality you have two things... getting to market first, flaws and all in an effort to capture market share. (Microsoft tactics 101). The second... provide a way to capture information which if caught, one can say mea culpa.
(Plausible denial)
We've seen this before. Not to mention that they can capture a lot more data than you think.
My Magic got Froyo over the air. I've never installed anything for it, I just use it like a USB drive to transfer files and all updates magically appear over 3G. Having said that, it was the first update since 1.6 so I think security exploits like this could be a major problem if updates are so slow to appear, so I agree with the rest of the post. Also the carrier is always emphasizing that Google control updates (mine is a google branded phone) so not really the fault of the carrier in this case.
RE Hans
Errr... no need for an update app as it is built into the OS. No you don't have to download a windows app as both apps from the markey place and OS upgrades can be done OTA.
I do agree that vendors should be forced to provide updates for at least 2 years - Motorola are seriously getting on my nerves now with the delay deploying Froyo to the Milestone. I will never buy a Motorola product again, but I will buy another Android phone. This is something us non-fruity obsessed people like to call choice.
Much better than one phone to rule them all.
are sure
It's motorola's fault. I have Motorola phone and Verizion seems to update it fairly fast.
Certain its Motorola at fault
Have a look at the Milestone forums. Lots of complaints from all over the world as the U.S. gets all the updates while the rest of the world are left waiting. Outside the U.S. the phone was sold without a carrier, we had no subsidies and paid full price for it and yet don't get any kind of quality support. Every region has had the same thing - update expected early Q3 2010, then changed to early Q4, then late Q4 and has recently been changed to early Q1 2011. Not only that but the U.S. version the Droid was sold with the bootloader unlocked. When they started selling it outside the U.S. they locked the boot loader to stop us upgrading it ourselves.
This forum has been going since last may
It is listed as the Milestone A583. it's a shame as the quality of the hardware is great, but the lack of support afterwards has lost them any future sales they might have had from me.
Milestone, millstone?
Title says it all.
Poor Selling Point
Makes you wonder if Apple was right to lock their phone down so tightly! Hate having to say that.
What SD card?
The Nexus S doesn't have an SD card slot
The OS still mounts the phones storage area as SD, with or without card.
Javascript off and alls ok.
It seems to fetch pages faster with it off.
I'm planning an Android purchase. Guess I have another reason to use Opera.
Then again, if you save your files in folder abc1247xy32mypinnumber then you're probably quite safe. As long as no one knows that.
Hey, what if someone steals your phone and pops the SD card right out of it? Vulnerability ahoy!
gone are the days...
...of propriety phone operating systems that nobody was interesting in attacking, these things are running full blown linux and windows now.
They must be updated and supported like any other distribution.
Phone vendors have to get much better in providing updates (samsung currently dont update android at all) or make their phones hardware to a standard and pass the operating system responsibility to the end user - like most other hardware.
I predict that sooner or later we will be treating phones the same way we treat pc's. Install the OS of our choice and take responsibility for our own updates
another scare article
Not in the wild.
Article should have "POC" in the title.
and it should also have said 'user clicks on dodgy link and gets infected/data slurped/bot netted...'
Now I think that this just may have been done before, not sure though, this type of get the user to click a link attack could be brand spanking new.

text: On January 25, 2010, about 1521 Pacific standard time, a Czech Aircraft Works Sportcruiser airplane, N243SC, was substantially damaged during a forced landing following a loss of engine power in cruise flight near La Quinta, California. The airplane was registered to Desert West Aviation, Palm Springs, California, and operated by the pilot under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91. The airline transport pilot and pilot-rated passenger sustained serious injuries. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed for the local flight. The flight originated from the Palm Springs International Airport (PSP), Palm Springs, California, about 1400. In a written statement, the pilot reported that prior to the flight; he conducted a pre flight inspection on the airplane. The pilot stated that upon completion of the preflight inspection, he had the airplane refueled with 100-low lead aviation fuel. Following the refueling, the pilot "drained all [airframe fuel] sumps" and noted "no evidence of water." The pilot further stated that after an uneventful departure, he flew to the Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport (TRM) and performed 4 or 5 touch-and-go landings before returning to PSP. While returning to PSP, he noticed that the fuel levels were uneven and decided to switch from the right fuel tank to the left fuel tank with the fuel boost pump in the "ON" position. The pilot noted that the engine lost power less than one minute after switching fuel tanks.The pilot further reported that he immediately switched the fuel selector back to the right fuel tank and conducted items on the emergency checklist. Despite multiple attempts, he was unable to restart the engine. The pilot stated that he initially selected an open field that was suitable for landing, but realized that he would be unable to make it due to a headwind. He then located a second field adjacent to his position, and initiated a forced landing. The pilot said that he "…got as low as I could then stalled it [the airplane] in." Subsequently, the airplane landed hard in the open field and came to rest upright. Examination of the airplane by first responders revealed that the left wing and fuselage were structurally damaged. The airplane was recovered to a secure location for further examination. A post accident examination of the airframe by the Safety Board investigator-in-charge (IIC) revealed that the left and right wings were separated from the fuselage by wreckage recovery personnel to facilitate wreckage transport. The airframe fuel sump drain was removed, and various dirt debris and rust was observed within the airframe fuel sump bowl. Both the left and right wings were intact and exhibited bending and buckling throughout. The left wing fuel tank was displaced from the wing structure and the right wing fuel tank remained attached. The left and right wing fuel tank vent lines and both wing fuel outlet ports were clear of debris, and the left and right wing fuel caps were intact and undamaged. The fuel selector was observed in the "OFF" position. Continuity was established between the left, right, and off positions of the fuel selector. As air was applied to both the left and right wing fuel inlet lines, a small amount of liquid was observed originating from the engine inlet fuel line at the firewall. Water finding paste was applied to this area when air pressure was applied to both the left and right fuel lines. The water finding paste exhibited signatures consistent with positive results for water. The airframe electrical fuel boost pump was removed from the firewall. The inlet port of the fuel pump was submerged in water. Power was applied to the fuel pump, and water was observed expelling from the outlet port with no anomalies noted.The Rotax 912 engine was removed from the airframe and subsequently shipped to the facilities of Rotech Research Canada LTD, Vernon, British Columbia, for further examination. The engine was examined at their facilities on May 25, 2010, under the supervision of the Safety Board IIC. Examination of the engine revealed that it was intact and visually appeared to be undamaged with the exception of the oil filter, which was displaced from the engine. All engine accessories remained attached to the engine and appeared to be undamaged. The engine-driven fuel pump was intact and removed from the engine. Residual liquid, brown in color and containing a large amount of debris, was removed from the inlet side of the fuel pump. The liquid originating from the outlet port was clear in color and free of debris. The liquid removed from the fuel pump was tested using water finding paste and exhibited positive results for water. Both carburetors were intact and undamaged. Debris was noted within the venturi areas of both carburetors. Upon disassembly of both carburetors, a white paste-like and flaky substance was noted within both the cylinder one/three side and two/four side carburetor float bowls. The cylinder two/four side carburetor float bowl contained about two ounces of a milky white liquid. The liquid was removed from the carburetor float bowl and placed in a sterile container. The liquid was tested using water finding paste with positive results for water noted. The engine was installed on an engine test stand with slave connections for fuel and oil. The engine was primed, successfully started, and ran semi-rough for about 30 to 45 seconds, then smoothed out. The engine was run at various RPM settings for about 3 minutes before it was manually shut down using the mixture control. No additional anomalies were found with the engine or airframe that would have precluded normal operation and the production of power.

How does Sandi Jackson handle stress? She doesn't read the news
BY MITCH DUDEK Staff Reporter email@example.com December 20, 2012 7:38PM
Sandi Jackson, attends a holiday meal for low-income residents Thursday evening at the South Shore Cultural Center. December 20, 2012 I Scott Stewart~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: January 22, 2013 10:10AM
How does Ald. Sandi Jackson (7th) alleviate the stress of a being married to someone who is struggling with bipolar disorder and under investigation by federal authorities who are looking in to his finances?
"The best thing for me is I don't read any newspapers and I don't watch any news," Jackson said Thursday night between doling out hugs and kisses to constituents at the South Shore Cultural Center.
"We give her briefings," chimed in Jackson's chief of staff, Keiana Barrett.
Jackson, whose two children go to school in Washington, D.C., where her family has a home, said she will be spending Christmas and New Year's Day in Chicago.
Her husband, Jesse Jackson Jr., who recently resigned from Congress after an extended absence during which he was in and out of the Mayo Clinic for treatment of a bipolar disorder, is "doing well, taking it day by day," she said.
"My kids have asthma, so this time of year always messes with them, so we're hoping they stay healthy. My daughter always battles with pneumonia this time of year, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed," she said.
Jackson dropped into a dinner held by Pangea, a real estate firm that has purchased and fixed up hundreds of apartment units in her ward, between meeting with constituents at her South Shore aldermanic office.

The Business Benefits of Updating your iPhone
By AdFeatures | Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 19:09
As an avid iPhone enthusiast, I love upgrading to the latest model and every time a new iPhone is launched, I simply sell my iPhone and use the money to update to the latest model. If you're considering doing the same then take a look at these ten reasons why you should choose the iPhone 5.
Battery Life
One thing that can make using earlier iPhones more difficult is the battery life, but the newest model has an extra two hours, so you can play with your phone to your heart's content. On average you can get up to 6 hours of gaming, watch 10 hours of video, talk for 8 hours or browse the web for 8 hours before you'll need to recharge.
The new iPhone comes complete with a powerful A6 processor that means your camera will react faster, which is ideal for capturing those spontaneous moments. You can also take panoramic pictures by slowly moving your iPhone across an image.
The A6 processor also allows you to stream and download videos and movies more quickly whilst the 1080p screen resolution makes images crystal clear. Amongst the new innovations is a face recognition feature which works brilliantly – something which makes mobile phone recycling a great option for those who want to get their hands on the latest piece of kit.
The new EarPods that come with the iPhone 5 are a complete reinvention of conventional earphones. They're light, durable and easy to wear, whilst creating a fantastic sound that will enhance your listening experience.
Improved wireless technology means you can use your iPhone wirelessly but won't drain your battery as quickly as you will with earlier versions. The addition of 4G also means you can turn your phone into a WiFi hotspot and use it to run other devices wirelessly, such as a tablet.
The bottom connector on the new iPhone is slimmer than other connectors in order to allow for a thinner phone, which means older accessories need to be used with an adapter.
Although it's only 8mm bigger than previous screens, this small size adjustment makes a huge difference when using your phone. The large screen allows for more to be displayed so for example, you can see more of your email inbox or your iTunes playlist. In addition the great screen resolution means images are sharp, clear and easy to watch.
The new A6 processor, which is upgraded from the A5 performs almost twice as well, so you can run high quality games and video with extremely high frame rates.
At 112grams, the iPhone 5 is incredibly light whilst at just 7.6mm thick, its slimline design make it easy to carry around with you.
The smart black iPhone 5 combines glossy and matt finishes which sets it apart from other iPhones. You can also find tonnes of stylish cases to buy online that will protect your phone and suit your tastes.

Dries out skin!

I bought this after reading the reviews. However all it did was dry out my skin and my husband's skin. He developed red rashes on his neck, and as for me, my arms and elbow itched after using it. Normally I am not at all sensitive to products, however this organic soap really made my skin itch. Could be that this product is not suited for everyone.
Quanity Does Not Equate to Quality

I read the reviews and decided to give this soap a try. I used it as a bath soap and not a facial soap. 1st) I found it not to lather up very well. I thought, that maybe that was due to it being pure oilve oil, and so wouldn't have a high lather. 2nd) I did not feel or notice any moisturizing results at all. 3rd) I ended up with a rash and dry itchy skin that I can attribute only to using this soap. I had no relief until I went back to using my previous soap (Nubian Hertiage), that I have used for years. I could tell the difference instantly after going back to Nubian Hertiage. I have used many of the different types of Nubian Hertiage soaps and have always had good results from them. They lather more than ANY soap I've ever used and smell wonderful (although, some may be a little too perfumy for some people). I will NEVER use this soap again as a bath soap (and wouldn't consider using it as a facial soap). I seriously doubt that I will ever try any other product from this line. The bar of soap is enormous, but as I stated in my title line: quanity does not equate to quality. After using it (for far too long) I still have left what would be considered the size of a regular bar of soap from any other soap line. I hate waste, so I will sat it out as a hand-soap (the only thing I can see using it as, then apply hand lotion immediately afterwards), but not sure how well that will even work since it doesn't lather very well.
Slimy soap that stings the eyes

This product is a disaster. It constantly melts, with green bits coming off it, so after a while the outside of the soap bar resembles green slime. Even worse: if your fingers have even only a trace of the soap on them and you touch anywhere near your eyes, the stinging that results is so intense that you can hardly open your eyes until you have wiped your eyes clean.
Nice, but too big! - **SEE UPDATE**

I like how this soap feels and it lathers great, but I can barely fit it in my hands! Should be half the size and half the price - then I would stock up! **UPDATE** Had to throw this soap out, half used! Made a gross mess in the shower. Dissolves in long mucous like green strings. Yuck - would not recommend!!

2003 Chateau Haut Bergey Pessac Leognan
"Dullish dark red. Coffee and mocha aromas. Moderately dense and chewy on the palate, with flavors of blackcurrant, mocha, chocolate, coffee and herbs. Seems a bit fuller in the middle than it was last year prior to the bottling. A low-acid wine with substantial tannins. Drink it over the next few years before it dries out." -Stephen Tanzer

"One of the stars of the vintage, this elegant, smoky wine has hints of barbecue pit intermixed with sweet black currants and cherries. Dark purple and medium to full-bodied, its impressive finesse and wonderful purity make for a surprisingly forward style of Smith-Haut-Lafitte to drink over the next 15 or so years."

Sir Alex Ferguson is hoping for improvements at the back as Manchester United take on a Cluj side that's already notched two away goals in Champions League Group H.
The Romanians produced a surprise on Matchday One by beating Braga 2-0 in Portugal and given they're back on their home turf, they could present a problem or two for a Reds defence which uncharacteristically conceded two first-half goals on Saturday.
"I hope the first half on Saturday was [an issue of] awareness," said Sir Alex, referring to Rio Ferdinand and Jonny Evans playing together for only the second time this season.
"When Jonny and Rio played consistently every week last season [from December when Nemanja Vidic was injured], we got better."
Fitness wise, the main area of concern for Sir Alex isn't defence for a change, it's midfield. The manager's three most experienced men in that department - Michael Carrick, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes - did not travel to Romania for various reasons.
"Carrick didn't report today, he's in bed with a virus," Sir Alex confirmed. "Ryan also felt rough this morning and we sent him home. We left Paul Scholes behind.
"Those three players are missing - two with a virus and Paul Scholes because, although he looked great this morning and played great on Saturday, at 37 years of age I can't expect him to play three games like that [Tottenham, Cluj, Newcastle]."
Sir Alex revealed that United elected to train at Carrington this morning, instead of Cluj's stadium this evening, for tactical reasons. He feels the opposition will be tough enough without enabling their staff to study the Reds' prepatory work.
"We made a decision last season actually. Most of the time when you go abroad and train on their pitch you can't do anything because everyone is watching. By training at our ground we could do what we wanted in terms of picking the team and anything tactical. It's much better doing that at our own ground."
