Inauguration 2013 — Barack Obama Sworn In For Second Term As President
Barack Obama took the oath of office just before noon in Washington on Monday to begin his second term as president of the United States.
Barack Obama took the oath of office just before noon in Washington on Monday to begin his second term as president of the United States.
Update: We interviewed the store's owner. His comments appear below.
Heading Due North, a gun and sporting-goods store in Norwich, New York, posted two photos to its Facebook page of signs in front of the store criticizing anyone who voted for President Barack Obama or New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. The store is owned and operated by David Francis, who also signed a letter posted on the storefront window.
The sidewalk sign reads: "IF YOU VOTED FOR OBAMA OR CUOMO U ARE NOT WELCOME HERE."
According to the conservative group Americans for Legal Immigration, the answer is a resounding, yes! They are challenging CNN to take Piers Morgan off the air after his heated debates on gun control in America. Following debates with Alex Jones and Jessie Ventura, the gun control debate has been put back on the front page of American politics.
For whatever reason, 'Star Wars' fans petitioned the White House wanting the United States to make a Death Star. That the country our the government has no interest in making one is no surprise. But the Chief of the Science and Space Branch at the White House Office of Management and Budget Paul Shawcross responded to the petition in the nerdiest way possible.
Current TV owned by former Vice President Al Gore has gone dark from Time Warner Cable Channel 134. It has been bought by Al-Jazeera. Now the Pan-Arab news channel will reach into the U.S. by nearly nine times it's current viewing audience to some 40 million homes.
The Senate is poised to introduce 2013 legislation on gun control. The fact is, dozens of mass killings have occurred in our country since two teenagers went on a rampage at Columbine High School. Now with the horrific school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, more and more American's are calling on our leaders to do something about the growing list of mass shootings plaguing us. For example:
Wow, I can't believe I'm even typing that headline, but it's true. While most of us were watching election coverage on Tuesday, others were paying attention to a different sort of amendment.
The 2012 presidential election concluded on Nov. 6, and after clinching 303 electoral votes, President Barack Obama will return to the Oval Office for his second term. After one of the most heated battles in campaign history, President Obama delivered his victory speech in Chicago, Ill., saying, "Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual ... I am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together."
Shortly after midnight on Nov. 7, 2012, former presidential candidate Mitt Romney addressed supporters in Boston, Mass. with his official concession speech. Romney lost the race to the White House after President Barack Obama clinched 303 electoral votes to Romney's 206.
On Nov. 6, 2012, Barack Obama was re-elected as President of the United States of America by the American people after clinching 303 electoral votes (270 votes are needed for the presidency).
Perhaps you've seen photos of completed ballots on social media like Instagram or Facebook. Is it legal to do that?
Today is Election Day. Don't forget to make time to vote. With all the serious issues out there, here's a not so serious look at some things you might not know about President Obama and candidate MItt Romney.

Every generation of new iPhone offers improvements to the built-in cameras. Now that the iPhone 6 is available, it is important to know how it will advance iPhone photography. This article includes sample images covering several aspects of the new camera, including its sharpness, lens distortion, detail, and color accuracy.
Lets start with lens distortion. Phone cameras use wide-angle lenses, and with the very short lens-stack possible in the thickness of a very thin phone, there isn't much opportunity to correct for the types of lens distortion common in wide angle lenses. Typically, barrel distortion will mean that a rectangle filling nearly the entire field of the lens will have curved, not straight sides, as if it had been over inflated.[Read More]
I've spent the last few days supporting the opening sessions of Shane Hurlbut's Illumination Experience Video Tour. Datacolor is a sponsor of these events, which will take place in 26 cities.
The sessions are "intended for any filmmaker seeking industry insight on cinematic lighting and cinematography" – but they are much more than that. These workshops cover a lot of ground – from lighting basics through full cinematic setups, to camera operation and exposure management, to on-set color controls, plus post-production tips and more – and, Shane is one of the top instructors in the field.[Read More]
Join our discussion where we'll cover image selection, basic editing for color and tonality, fundamental retouching, basic multi-image layout and design, optimizing output images for resolution and sharpness, and more. We'll also discuss managing color on the computer you use for image editing and communicating effectively with print/publishing houses.[Read More]

Last summer fact checkers caught President Obama attempting to belittle the importance of the Keystone XL pipeline, busting him for using false and deflated jobs numbers. But it appears he didn't learn his lesson.
WASHINGTON, DC – The U.S. House of Representatives today voted to strengthen American manufacturing and create jobs by passing H.R. 4795, the Promoting New Manufacturing Act.
The U.S. House of Representatives will vote today on important legislation that will boost our country's manufacturing base and create jobs. H.R.
Last week, President Obama announced he had cut a carbon deal with China that would require the U.S. to take drastic action to reduce emissions while asking little of China in return. While the U.S. would commit to new reductions by 2025, China's President Xi Jinping did not commit to any emissions reductions and only pledged to try and cap emissions by 2030.

Here's the Yakuza Zero Trailer in English
You saw the 15 minute Japanese Yakuza Zero trailer. Now you can understand it. »
You saw the 15 minute Japanese Yakuza Zero trailer. Now you can understand it. »
I want the new Yakuza game brought to the West, but I'm not going to beg, Sega. I am instead simply going to keep asking until it either happens or I die from Yakuza deprivation. Do you want my blood on your hands, Sega? Imagine the headlines. "Internet Writer Dies From Yakuza Absence, Sega Blamed". You don't want… »
This trailer for the new Yakuza game was actually shown first during Sony's pre-TGS press conference, but has only today made its way online for general viewing. Enjoy, then, another fantastic trailer for a likely fantastic Yakuza game that we'll probably never get to play in the West because Sega. »
Here's the story trailer for Yakuza 0. Like the era the game's based in, it's extravagant and loud. The prequel will be out in Japan next year, on PS3 and PS4. »
Sega has updated the character section at their official site for Yakuza 0, uploading a slew of new screenshots showing various side characters from the game. They're all pretty impressive. »
As previously reported, the new Yakuza game, Yakuza 0, has been announced. As you can probably guess from the number, it's a prequel. »
Sega announced this morning in Japan that Yakuza Zero is the next title the Yakuza series, and it's in development for PlayStation 3 and 4. There's not much more info outside of a teaser website, but Sony promises to reveal more details at the Tokyo Game Show in September. »
This is not hyperbole. I am being serious. The audition this gentleman gave for Sega's upcoming Yakuza game is most unusual. »
In 2011, I started to review Yakuza 4 for this very website. Countless hours later, but with the game unfinished, my PS3 died, taking my save game with it. So I never ended up reviewing it. Today, I make amends for this. »
Sega is making a new Yakuza game! Pretty much all we know is that it's a Yakuza game, and it's for the PS3 and PS4. You know what else we know? Porn stars. »
The next Yakuza game won't be a spin-off like Yakuza Ishin! or Yakuza: Dead Souls, but the creators won't commit to it being a numbered game. So, what the hell is it? Apparently, it's for men. »
Yakuza 5 was released in Japan in December 2012. It is yet to see a release in the West. Sega, we are still waiting. Hurry up. »
The latest game in the Yakuza franchise is loads of fun. Seriously, after over 30 hours, I still haven't had enough. »
One thing that Japan will be getting for its PS4 launch that other countries didn't/won't is the latest Yakuza game, Yakuza Ishin!. And for those who can't wait for the game, there's a new free PS Vita app to let them experience some of the Yakuza Ishin! world, if not the story. »
Yakuza 5 was first released in Japan in December 2012. It is now January 2014 and there's still no word on a Western release. Fix this, Sega! »
Yakuza series producer Toshihiro Nagoshi has previously stated that he hates Grand Theft Auto. You wouldn't think so when he was asked which one of last year's games impressed him the most. »
Some cats are cute. Some are ugly, but still cute. These cats look like Japanese gangsters. They are scary in the most adorable way possible. »
Hold on. Don't start sending hate mail to Sega just yet. Let's hear the man out. »

"Our financial performance this quarter was respectable considering the substantial headwinds posed by economic conditions and our ongoing investment in strategic transformation initiatives."
Translation: Our results sucked.
Why is it that so many people start talking a strange, foreign language when they walk in the doors of an office? The peculiar jargon of business has become part of daily discourse, adopted knowingly if unwillingly in many cases.
Yet evidence suggests that many of us find it intensely annoying. Jargon is a "pointless irritation", according to nearly a quarter of 2000 managers interviewed for the UK's Institute of Leadership and Management survey.
It isn't simply that jargon irks; research by Deloitte in the US points to a negative commercial impact. Deloitte looked at companies that made up the Dow Jones Industrial Average and analysed the clarity of their reports, speeches, press releases, and more against the performance of the companies' stock.
"What we found was that clear-speaking companies consistently outperformed [stock market performance] companies that were vaguer," says consultant Brian Fugere.
Related: Are there toxic personalities in your workplace?
"And why should that surprise anyone? All it takes is just a few minutes inside a company to get a sense of how direct and straightforward the culture is. And if you were a customer, a supplier, an employee—who would you rather do business with?"
But trying to get rid of what has been called "jargon monoxide" in the US isn't easy. In a light-hearted but meaningful attempt to introduce some straight talking, the Australian Institute of Management has created a jargon Buzzword Bingo card to debunk the management-speak used in meetings. The first person to shout "Bingo!" when all of the phrases have been (inadvertently) used, wins the game.
A more concrete attempt to weed out jargon resulted from Fugere and colleagues' research, resulting in the development of "Bullfighter", a software program that detects and eliminates business jargon. Online site Un-suck It performs a similar service, offering straightforward alternatives to terrible business jargon.
"Bull has become the language of business," says Fugere, who has some theories about why people resort to jargon.
"When obscurity pollutes someone's communications, it's often because they have nothing to say or the speaker/author's goal is to impress and not to inform. The low road to impressing an audience is to make them feel inferior by using words they won't understand."
Tossing in a few phrases such as "value proposition", "mindshare" and "ecosystem" makes the speaker seem to be a kind of intellectual powerhouse says Fugere.
"There's a strange insecurity at work here, where someone tries to overcompensate by trying to sound smart."
But David Brown, who works for Deloitte in Australia, contends that business jargon "is the nature of the world we live in" and that every professional group creates its own language to enhance meaning, act as shorthand and to reinforce the group.
"The language of accounting is different to the language of marketing and there's nothing necessarily wrong with that. Where we have fallen down is when you move outside that little world and expect others to understand – or where people are feeling excluded because the language is setting the rules."
The antidote to jargon monoxide
Both Primo Levi and George Orwell wrote about the use of language as an instrument of power. Levi said that language that defies normal understanding is "an ancient repressive artifice" and some contemporary commentators would agree with him.
Don Watson, Australian author of Weasel Words and Death Sentence: The Decay of Public Language says that managerial language is mechanised language that removes the need for thinking and also the memory of what feeling, notion or need inspired the thing in the first place.
"My guess is that the people in power in organisations are the main beneficiaries of this language and the most corrupted," says Watson. "I knew one CEO who admitted he no longer had a comprehensible language that any outsider, and doubtless many insiders, could understand; he couldn't speak what he thought. He no longer had a verb in his repertory; his language was entirely abstract. But people don't listen to abstract, they only listen to concrete."
At the invitation of private companies, Watson has given talks on the value of plain speaking.
"People flock to these sessions, and women in particular laugh in recognition, but there are always a couple of men who look surly and it is easy to work out why they feel threatened. You can tell they are thinking: who is this guy sending up the way we talk?"
In an age when political correctness and litigiousness are rife, it may be understandable that senior executives are careful about what they say – or don't say. Fugere agrees that these are real and legitimate concerns but says that companies should achieve a balance about what can and can't be said.
"Too many companies let lawyers run the joint – and you can guess how unimaginative the language then becomes."
CPA Australia Senior Policy Adviser, Dr Mark Shying, tends to agree.
"In-house lawyers, along with financial teams, will look at what is being written and after going through that process, the communication value can be reduced."
There's also the problem of deluging people with information he says.
"For example, HSBC has just released its 598-page annual report, which includes 160 pages of financial statements. The sheer volume of information is a cause of clutter. You can't easily find the message in that, let alone understand the workings of the HSBC business empire."
Too much obscure, abstract language makes people believe a company is less trustworthy, according to researchers at New York University. And recent case histories support that view, says Fugere.
"As Enron sank deeper and deeper into the depths of their fraud, the language in their annual reports, press releases and speeches grew more and more obscure. Gee, I wonder why…."
Most lies are told by people who are actually truthful but work in organisations where the language is used to obscure the truth, thinks Watson.
"It takes guts to speak plainly as it means going against the flow and is evidence of a lack of complicity – and potentially that makes someone vulnerable. But we owe it to each other to speak in ways that are interesting and informative and to make ourselves engage, excite and even laugh."

Obama: GOP not even trying to solve immigrationAugust 1, 2014 @ 12:24 pm
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says House Republicans are trying to pass the most extreme and unworkable version of an immigration bill even though they know the bill isn't going anywhere.
Republicans are pushing legislation that could clear the way for eventual deportation of more than 500,000 immigrants brought here illegally as kids and address the surge of immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Obama says Republicans know that legislation won't succeed in the Senate. He says Republicans aren't even trying to solve the problem. He says they're just trying check a box before leaving town for the annual August recess.
Obama says he will have to act alone to address the crisis because the government is running out of money to deal with it.

Home » ODB » WWE Battleground
Real Name
Jessica Kresa
Date of Birth
June 6, 1978
Place of Birth
On Monday Night Raw, Triple H cut a promo that took a jab at wrestling fans online. Some more details have been revealed now. The segment was in response to what HHH saw online from fans who complained about WWE Battleground 2014 being a sub par show. It has been said on multiple occasions that he hates fans who think they know how the business works.
July 24, 2014
As late as Saturday, management had plans in place for Bray Wyatt to beat Chris Jericho at WWE Battleground 2014. However, Vince McMahon called an audible and had Jericho winning the match. No word yet on why McMahon made this decision, but it is being said that a lot of people backstage were against the idea because Wyatt had already started losing momentum with the audience.
July 22, 2014
Fans who watched WWE Battleground 2014 noticed that Rob Van Dam did not perform. It has now been revealed that the former world heavyweight champion was forced to miss the pay per view because of an undisclosed injury. An update has been promised by WWE in regards to the nature of the ailment. No word yet on whether or not RVD will be missing time from the road.
July 21, 2014
At WWE Battleground 2014, Miz won the battle royal to become the new Intercontinental Champion. Sheamus is the reigning United States Heavyweight Champion. The two of them are feuding. That has led to rumors of a title unification match taking place at Summerslam 2014. The belief is that WWE really wants to stack up this pay per view to build momentum for the upcoming subscription rush for the WWE Network.
July 21, 2014
Vince McMahon decided to take a huge gamble at WWE Battleground 2014 when he had Lana and Alexander Rusev cutting a promo that hinted about the recent airplane disaster in the Ukraine. That received plenty of backlash from the media and from fans on social media websites. It got to the point where WWE even released a official statement with a veiled jab at those who are complaining.
July 21, 2014
After successfully retaining the heavyweight championship at WWE Battleground 2014, many would expect John Cena to be at Monday Night Raw for some sort of victory promo. However, the popular performer hopped on a plane Monday morning in Tampa to head to New York City. Cena is filming some scenes for an upcoming movie and will not be at Raw.
July 21, 2014
With the pay per view just a day away, rumors are firing up about WWE pulling the trigger on the Roman Reigns era. There are talks that he could walk out of the WWE Battleground 2014 pay per view as the new heavyweight champion. Management might be forced to give John Cena some time off to film some scenes in a big movie, so the title change has been discussed heavily over the last couple of days.
July 19, 2014
In a rather interesting move, management has removed Adam Rose and Damien Sandow from the Intercontinental Championship battle royal at WWE Battleground 2014. No word yet on why they were pulled from the match, but rumors are floating around that the two of them could be given a singles match on the pay per view. As of right now, there are twenty remaining contestants competing for the belt.
July 16, 2014
While many were afraid that the injury would cause him to lose his push, the fact that management has Wade Barrett scheduled to make an appearance at WWE Battleground 2014 is a good sign that the elevation will continue once he makes his return. The belief is that Barrett will be handing over the Intercontinental Championship to the winner of the battle royal, while planting the seeds for a future feud.
July 15, 2014
Since management did not want to have two divas matches on WWE Battleground 2014, the decision was made to have the match between Cameron and Naomi Knight take place on the kickoff show instead. The segment was needed for the upcoming season of Total Divas. Otherwise, the story would have been placed on the back burner once AJ Lee decided to make her return to WWE.
July 15, 2014
Rumors are floating around that the segment on Monday Night Raw between John Cena and Ric Flair was a subtle way for WWE to retire the world heavyweight championship belt. For those that missed it, Cena handed the belt over to Flair and told the legendary performer to keep it. WWE has not released an official statement on the matter yet, so fans will be tuning in to Smackdown and WWE Battleground 2014 to see the fate of the belt.
July 15, 2014
A lot of wrestling fans were a bit confused on Monday Night Raw this week when it was revealed that Paul Heyman and Antonio Cesaro are no longer together. The reason for the abrupt split is because WWE wants Heyman to be associated only with Brock Lesnar, who is rumored to be returning as soon as the night after WWE Battleground 2014. The former UFC champion is rumored to be on the receiving end of a huge push in the coming months.
July 15, 2014
Since management wanted to fill in some time at WWE Battleground 2014, the decision was made to book Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan into a best of three falls match for the tag team championship. The two teams have produced some good matches for WWE, so management is hoping that they can fill in a good amount of time at the pay per view for them.
July 9, 2014
About a month ago, it was reported that David Otunga was on his way back to WWE. He revealed those plans to the media, but those plans have yet to surface. It is being said that management simply has not come up with a story for him to make his return to Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. Some are speculating that he could be a mystery entrant into the upcoming Intercontinental Championship battle royal at WWE Battleground 2014.
July 8, 2014
While he has already been officially added to the match at WWE Battleground 2014, very few people backstage in WWE expect Kofi Kingston to be given much consideration as the new Intercontinental Champion. The belief is that he is simply in the match to act as filler and to produce an entertaining spot, which he has routinely done well for the company.
July 5, 2014
Some more names have been added to the upcoming WWE Intercontinental Championship battle royal. Big E, Curtis Axel, Dolph Ziggler, Rob Van Dam and Ryback are now in the match at WWE Battleground 2014. They join Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, Great Khali and Antonio Cesaro. As of right now, the company is favoring the idea of giving the title to Cesaro.
July 2, 2014
On Monday Night Raw, WWE was quick to set up the main event for WWE Battleground 2014. John Cena will defend the heavyweight championship in a fatal four way match against Roman Reigns, Randy Orton and Kane. The move was set up by Triple H, who did not reveal his reasoning for putting Reigns, an adversary, into the title match instead of Seth Rollins.
July 1, 2014
As of right now, WWE has a big match between Roman Reigns and Randy Orton penciled in for WWE Battleground 2014. The company could set up the feud during the title match at Money in the Bank 2014. There are some rumors floating around that Orton and Reigns could be battling for the title at Battleground, even though it's a bit early for the big push to begin.
June 28, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that Cameron will be doing a heel turn at Money in the Bank 2014. She will more than likely cost Naomi Knight her chance at the WWE Divas Championship. There is also speculations that the incident will then lead to a triple threat match at WWE Battleground 2014, which would also feature Paige as the champion still.
June 27, 2014
Ever since the shocking heel turn by Seth Rollins against Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns took place on Monday Night Raw, there has been a lot of speculations as to when WWE would have the former Shield partners fighting one another. As of right now, the strongest rumors are that Rollins and Ambrose will be facing one another at Money in the Bank 2014, while Rollins and Reigns will have their match at WWE Battleground 2014.
June 8, 2014
In regards to the release of ODB from TNA, reports are surfacing that the two sides are leaving on good terms. She was not released because of backstage heat or anything. In fact, her contract had expired, and management opted not to renew her deal at this time. The belief is that the two sides could come to an agreement down the line, but nothing is expected to happen until TNA can secure a new television deal.
August 29, 2014
It looks like TNA and ODB have parted ways. The former Knockouts champion has just been moved from the official roster to the alumni section. She has not been very active with the company over the last couple of months. ODB has also been working as a bartender. The belief is that the split was amicable, and she could be utilized at various live events if needed.
August 21, 2014
The TNA Knockouts website has undergone a bit of a makeover, with the company making some modifications to the layout and adding some new performers. A quick glance at the site shows that TNA now has nine Knockouts on the roster. Some new pictures of ODB, Christy Hemme, Velvet Sky, Taryn Terrell, Gail Kim, Santana Garrett, Angelina Love, Madison Rayne and Brooke Tessmacher have been uploaded.
May 31, 2014
In an interesting and comical move, Rockstar Spud worked the TNA Knockouts only pay per view over the weekend. The event was designed to showcase the contracted female performers against females performers from the independent wrestling circuit. Spud worked near the top of the card in a match against ODB, which he lost, of course.

TNA has been promoting a Battle of the Knockouts for the upcoming episode of Impact Wrestling. It's a six woman tag team match featuring newcomer Alpha Female, LeiD Tapa and Gail Kim on one team, while the other team is comprised of Madison Rayne, Velvet Sky and ODB. It is designed to promote the feud between Madison and Gail.
March 4, 2014
A rather interesting match took place at a TNA live event in Tennessee over the weekend. In order to fire up the audience for a backstage passes giveaway, Rockstar Spud played the antagonist by trying to prevent it from happening. ODB came out to challenge him to a match. She was victorious, so that enabled her to give away the free prize to fans.
March 2, 2014
On Impact Wrestling last night, Madison Rayne made her return to TNA, where the former Knockouts Champion saved ODB from an attack by Gail Kim and Lei'D Tapa. Rayne had taken some time away from the company to have a child.
December 13, 2013
There has been some confusion with fans about the relationship between Eric Young and ODB. While their characters recently got married on screen for TNA, they are simply just friends in real life.

Rookie quarterback competing with incumbent Mark Sanchez Aaron Wilson
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith doesn't lack for confidence. Or an NFL contract now, after officially signing his rookie deal today, the team announced.
Although the second-round draft pick faces a challenge as he tries to unseat embattled incumbent Mark Sanchez for the starting job, Smith likes his chances.
It's not hard to see why. Sanchez struggled mightily last season, and Smith was a prolific passer at West Virginia.
"I feel like I have a great shot," Smith told the Charleston Gazette. "I did a pretty good job overall of just adapting to the system and playbook and felt very comfortable with it. I want to be the best.
"It's going to take time and effort and that's what I'm willing to put in. Once I step on the field it's about business. I'm really appreciative to have made it to this level, but there's a lot more for me out there and I'm going to try and strive for it."
Sanchez holds a clear advantage in experience and Smith reportedly displayed signs of growing pains during the offseason practices.
He'll have to prove to Jets coach Rex Ryan that he fully grasps the offense and is mature enough to knock Sanchez off the top of the depth chart.
Smith has had a rocky road to get this point, plummeting in the draft from a projected top 10 selection to the second round as he fired his agents and then hired Roc Nation, Jay Z's fledgling sports agency, to represent him.
He skipped Sanchez's Jets West camp, leading to speculation that he and Sanchez aren't going to be close while they compete for the job.
Smith passed for 11,662 yards, 98 touchdowns and 21 interceptions for the Mountaineers.
"I'm prepared,'' Smith said. "I'm just getting better daily."
