Sources: Teams to tender restricted FAs
NFL teams are prepared to use restricted free-agent tenders, even if they don't know if the tags will be binding in the uncertain labor climate, according to multiple league sources. These tenders could further antagonize players and agents in the ongoing labor dispute.
Teams are trying to restrict the ability of some of their key players to sign with another club even if their contracts are up. The big question, of course, is whether these tags are binding once there is a new collective bargaining agreement. The current CBA expires at the end of the day March 3 and talks are ongoing between the owners and players' union regarding a new deal.
When told that teams will be using restricted free-agent tenders, one agent said: "The boxing gloves are on."
Once a player receives a restricted free-agent tender, he can wait to see if he receives better offers from other teams before agreeing to a contract with his current team. If another team offers more money, the current team has the right to match it or receive draft-pick compensation depending on the level of tender.
For instance, the Carolina Panthers are expected to place restricted free-agent tenders on running back DeAngelo Williams and Charles Johnson, even if they don't know whether the tags will be binding.
Future Of The League
In a guest column, NFL rep Greg Aiello outlines the league's problems with the CBA and ways to fix the system as the game moves forward. Story
NFLPA executive George Atallah breaks down how the players and the union view the crucial talks. Story
• NFL labor history since 1968
• Sando: 10 things to know
• NFL Labor: Topics page
Under the soon-to-expire collective bargaining agreement, players with fewer than four seasons in the league were subject to restricted tenders, but last season -- which was an uncapped year after the owners opted out of the CBA -- players with fewer than six seasons in the league also were subject to receiving tenders, greatly restricting the movement of many.
Williams has been in the league for five seasons and Johnson for four.
Several players balked at having their free-agent rights restricted last offseason. Logan Mankins of the New England Patriots and Vincent Jackson and Marcus McNeill of the San Diego Chargers even sat out some of the season in protest before reporting.
McNeill eventually signed a long-term deal with San Diego. Mankins and Jackson received franchise tags from their teams this offseason.
If these tenders in 2011 are binding, it again will limit where each player can go and what he can earn next season.

Posted Mar 21, 2013By
Firefighters have five small brush fires under control Thursday afternoon in Waterman Canyon. The burn area for the five fires is about one acre, according to San Bernardino National Forest personnel. Firefighters are still managing the scene. A suspected arsonist, reportedly wearing a blue polo shirt and jeans, was seen running up the mountainside near Highway 18 and Old Waterman Canyon Road. San Bernardino police are searching for the suspect with the help of Sheriff's helicopter, 40-King. This is the same area where the 2003 Old Fire was set.
The first fire ignited shortly before 3 p.m. near Highway 18 and lower Old Waterman Canyon Road, according to the California Highway Patrol website. San Bernardino City firefighters reported as they were putting out the first small spot fire, a person was setting a second blaze in the brush, according to reports. Then a short time later a third fire was reported. LaFonzo Carter/ Staff Photographer

Hi, does anyone override sales order pdf invoice ? When I did, Nothing happened.
Please give me advice, thanks…
There are 2 files added :
- local/Hwareh/Sales/etc/config.xml
- local/Hwareh/Sales/Model/Order/Pdf/Shipment.php
Here is my code :
- local/Hwareh/Sales/etc/config.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?><config> <global> <models> <sales_order_pdf> <rewrite> <shipment>Hwareh_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Shipment</shipment> </rewrite> </sales_order_pdf> </models> </global></config>
- local/Hwareh/Sales/Model/Order/Pdf/Shipment.php
class Hwareh_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Shipment extends Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Abstract{ public function getPdf($shipments = array()) { echo 'SUCCESS rewriting'; }}
at : etc/config.xml should be
<?xml version="1.0"?><config> <global> <models> <sales> <rewrite> <order_pdf_shipment>Hwareh_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Shipment</order_pdf_shipment> </rewrite> </sales> </models> </global></config>

But do you see the logic? I don't
I am als trying to rewrite my code but not much succes. only with breadcrumbs with the exampla Fido provided here
Question: Is it possible to do all the rewritings in on config file?
I'm still having problems:
I managed to rewrite both breadcrumbs.php and product.php both located in mage/catalog/block/ But:
Both rewriting are not working at the same time!
If I turn off rewriting of product.php then breadcrumbs.php is rewritten. I put an echo('tes') in this file which shows up
If I put rewriting of product.php on, then only product.php is rewritten and the breadcrumbs do not show up at all.
I do the testing on a products page
my configfiles
for breadcrumbs:
<?xml version="1.0"?><config> <global> <blocks> <catalog> <rewrite> <breadcrumbs>Fenix_Rewrites_Catalog_Block_Breadcrumbs</breadcrumbs> </rewrite> </catalog> </blocks> </global></config>
<?xml version="1.0"?><config> <global> <blocks> <catalog> <rewrite> <breadcrumbs>Fenix_Rewrites_Product_Block_Product</breadcrumbs> </rewrite> </catalog> </blocks> </global></config>
I use breadcrumbs here too because something else does not work.
<?xml version="1.0"?><config> <modules> <Fenix_Rewrites_Breadcrumbs> <active>true</active> <codePool>local</codePool> </Fenix_Rewrites_Breadcrumbs> <Fenix_Rewrites_Product> <active>true</active> <codePool>local</codePool> </Fenix_Rewrites_Product>> </modules></config>

Get fashion advice from 'Project Runway' judge Nina Garcia
The Project Runway judge and Marie Claire fashion editor steers even the most clueless fashion victim through various style mazes.
Got a fashion dilemma? Consult Nina Garcia's Look Book: What to Wear for Every Occasion (Voice, $23.99). In the easy to flip through guide, the Project Runway judge and Marie Claire fashion editor steers even the most clueless fashion victim through various style mazes. The Colombian native knows about what-to-wear conundrums these days: Garcia's pregnant with her second child (a boy), and is battling the bump in the dog days of summer.
What do you think of our Miami style?
Really fresh and fun. Women there have a great, eclectic, sexy, beachy look that I love -- they aren't afraid of color, and of course you can't miss the South American influence.
How we can look chic until Labor Day and beyond?
It's not easy to feel chic when it's sweltering outside. Keep it simple. Wear natural, breathable fabrics like cotton and go for easy, drapey pieces. A polished A-line dress or a chic YSL-style safari tunic would work well.
What should be in every Miami woman's closet?
A one-piece maillot that can take you from the pool to a beachside lunch.
What should be out of every closet?
I never say never. Fashion rules are made to be broken. That said, if you haven't been able to fit into a garment for more than a year, do yourself a favor and get rid of it. Anything overly tight never looks right.
Who do you think are the hottest designers today?
I appreciate timeless, high-quality, enduring fashion, so I love Lanvin, Chanel, Phoebe Philo and [fellow "PR'' judge] Michael Kors. In terms of new designers to watch out for, Louise Goldin, Erdem and Preen are doing beautiful work.
Which celebs do you think are the most stylish?
Kate Moss has mastered cool, laid-back glamour, and Victoria Beckham really knows how to have fun with fashion. I also admire Jennifer Lopez for her confidence -- she's great at choosing clothes that flatter her body.
Who are the worst dressed?
I try to avoid the worst dressed label. Those celebrity fashion disasters tend to result from attempting to wear an outrageous straight-from-the runway look in real life, which rarely works, whether or not you're famous. Showing too much skin or overaccessorizing are also very common mistakes. Smart editing is essential for great style.
What is happening with Project Runway?
It's still going strong. We have an amazing group of young designers this season. The major change is the 90-minute format, which gives you more behind-the-scenes footage. Viewers get to see even more of the contestants and their work process.

It just occurred to me - WE Are The Irate MinoritySubmitted by ProudAmericanFirst on Wed, 11/07/2012 - 02:13
And it really works!
- Login to post comments
Yes, we are irate, and we are
Yes, we are irate, and we are tireless, and we are setting alight the brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.
Let it not be said that we did nothing.-Ron Paul
Stand up for what you believe in, even if you stand alone.-Sophia Magdalena Scholl
Just keep being the squeaky
Just keep being the squeaky wheel until we get some grease!
We'd have to be in the actual Minority for that...
It saddens me to think there are still people on this site who saw all the vote rigging and still haven't figured out that the freedom movement is larger than the republican party.
We're the MAJORITY. The MSM & TPTB just won't let anyone know that.
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. - Matthew 10:16
I guess that's another difference
I'm not irate. Ron Paul get me thinking a long time ago about how every generation gets set up.. it's kind of like that, "once you've won the rat race along comes the fat cat", kind of deal. I stopped blaming my folks and I saw the dumbing down and matrix..so I'm not irate, as much as interested in solutions and materializing the message, "Restore the Republic".
Irate is like anger, right? And anger is like a fuel, it's energy that can be destructive or constructive.. it's up to us to make it constructive.. and that's where I'm at in the RP rEVOLution as a RepubliCAN.
I find the term "RepubliCAN" to be so very repulsive. ACK. :-p
That's how Ron Paul had it spelled in Tampa when he said, "We are the future".
That doesn't make it sit well and it
is pretty unlikely IMO that is was Ron Paul's idea to use that emphasis. Barf. Probably makes him nauseous too if truth be known.
I need a new party. That's the future. This one stinks of corporatism, war mongering, authoritarianism, insider deals... and troll breath. I think it's too far gone to save.
I've not downvoted you btw.
I don't know why people on here keep voting you down tonight? I haven't seen anything that you've said to be out of line. And frankly, I like people of differing opinions. If we were all the same, what a boring world we would live in.
People vote me down hoping to fade my post and marginalize me because they do not agree with my perspective, which is merely what I understood from learning about Ron Paul. I like people who make me think. I don't mind being wrong.. it's not learning from being wrong that hurts the most.
It is a fuel for me. But it is never funneled destructively. All my life, I have always worked best under immense pressure. That is why I succeed.
"What if the American people learn the truth" - Ron Paul
Well, it worked to not allow
Well, it worked to not allow the fake joker bankster Romney in but it didn't solve the overall problem. I am happy none the less at the moment.
We were CHEATED. Plain and simple.
Otherwise, the quote really works :-)
I am happy too, that we will have a good shot in 2016!

Bestselling author Nicholas Sparks: King of Romance
Nicholas Sparks is a box-office darling who writes books that the likes of Mandy Moore and Miley Cyrus clamour to get involved with
Hours before the Hollywood premiere of Dear John earlier this month, bestselling author Nicholas Sparks was sitting in the expensive hotel room he'd been put up in, continually glimpsing at his iPhone as it lighted up with phone calls and text messages.
"That's my literary agent," he said. "And now here's a producer from the film."
Sparks, 44, had flown in earlier that day from his home in North Carolina for the opening of the fifth movie adaptation of one of his books. The sixth, The Last Song, starring Miley Cyrus, is due out in April, and an adaptation of his novel The Lucky One, already in the works, will potentially make seven.
Sparks, the author of 15 books with more than 50 million copies in print worldwide, writes love stories that he insists are about Joe Average — guys who build furniture, high school students, soldiers. But the things that happen to his characters are far from standard: They pen fanciful love letters and scale Ferris wheels to ask girls out on dates. Those idyllic moments translate exceptionally well on screen — which has made Sparks one of the most desired brand names in Hollywood today.
A 2004 movie adaptation of his novel The Notebook, starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams as star-crossed lovers, was made — like most of his adaptations — for $20 million (Dh73.44 million) to $30 million, but grossed around $115 worldwide at the box office, while DVD sales of the film top 11 million to date.
"Everybody talks about The Notebook — it's the standard by which all romance films are judged in popular America since it was released," said Marty Bowen, who served as a producer on Dear John. "In the world of romance and Hollywood, Nicholas Sparks is the Good Housekeeping seal of approval."
'No flaws'
Sparks, not one for false humility, made it clear he also believes this to be true. "There's a really big difference between having one novel made into a film and having seven. Alice Sebold had The Lovely Bones. Is her life changed now?" Sparks asked. "But when you start getting over six, seven, we're moving into territory where not a lot of people go.
"The Notebook is a good novel. There are no flaws with that novel," he said. "That's a novel that will stay around for a long, long time. That's a novel that is taught in schools — that is out in CliffsNotes. Classics just choose themselves."
Although Sparks' stories have resonated widely with audiences, he's hardly been a critical darling. His most recent movie adaptation, Nights in Rodanthe — which was Warner Bros' second highest-grossing film of 2008 — was skewered by film critics.
And though most literary critics would cringe at calling Sparks' books classics, the author did find a fan in Mandy Moore. The pop singer-turned-actress played a young girl falling in love while battling terminal cancer in 2002's A Walk to Remember, and fought for the part after Sparks' book resonated so strongly with her.
"I had such a visceral reaction to it that I remember not being able to read because I was almost hyperventilating while I was crying," she said, laughing. "It was my first movie and I know people say it may be cliché and it's a tearjerker or it's cheesy, but for me, it's the thing I'm most proud of."
That film became a favourite of teen star Miley Cyrus, and she told Disney she wanted to do a movie like it.
Sparks met with Cyrus and asked her a few basic questions before sitting down to write the screenplay for The Last Song, which also became his next novel. "I said, 'Do you want to sing or not?'" Sparks said. "And she said no. Then I asked, 'Do you have anything you really like?' She said, 'I like animals.' Every teenage girl likes animals," he said, laughing. "I said I'd see if I could work those in — other than that, the story was 100 per cent mine."
Rebel in love
In The Last Song, Cyrus, 17, plays a rebellious young girl spending the summer with her estranged father when she falls in love with a local hunk. "It was the best summer of my life," Cyrus recalled giddily of filming.
"It's definitely edgier than what I'm known for, with all the kissing and stuff.
"I mean, I don't get to be a normal teenager and go to high school, so this was a dream come true for me. I think every girl is going to walk away from the movie wishing something like this would happen to her."
Denise Di Novi, who produced the first Sparks movie Message in a Bottle and has worked on three of his other adaptations, described him as a savvy businessman. "How many authors can say that every single one of their movies are successful?" she said. "And I think they're just going to get more and more popular. His stories give great comfort to people. They're wish-fulfilment."
It's a point, of course, of which Sparks is well aware. "You'll quadruple your money making a Nicholas Sparks movie. It's money in the bank," he said.
"It's not Spider-Man, but it's a very successful formula."

Hello everyone This is a quick blog I made. I just wanted to share some awesome news with you guys.
On September 17, 00:00 o'clock I'll be at GameStop for the Grand Theft Auto V midnight release It is the first time ever I'll be at one. I asked my mum if she could go with me there (it's in another town nearby and I don't have a driver's license).
But that is not the only thing I'll do. I shall pay for my pre-ordered PlayStation 4 Together with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and Battlefield 4 as well. The price tag for the PS4 is better than I had expected. In US Dollars and Euros it'll cost 399. I first expected it to be ca 4 500 kr here in Sweden, but the price tag is, wait for it... 3 899 kr It is way better than I have expected. I don't know this but I think it is actually cheaper here than in the US.
So it'll be 3 899 kr + 699 for one of the games. On my graduation day June 10 my mum said she would buy a PS4 game for me because I didn't got any present from her that day. At first I was going to buy both of the games for my own money but I have decided that mum shall pay for ACIV and I'll pay for BF4 and of course the console itself. Well actually I'll pay for both games but I'll get money from my mum later on.
I thought that this would work better 'cause I plan to buy 2 more PS3 games on that night: Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMix and Rayman Legends. I was actually going to wait till later but I think I might buy them right now instead of waiting. The price for KH will be 299, but that is just standard with no dynamic theme and artbook.
But I don't mind that. I didn't plan on getting the Limited Edition. But if they have one I might get it. And I will most likely in the future get a Limited Editon of the other upcoming collection. But only time will tell if I will do it or not. And the Rayman Legends probably costs 599 kr (retail games for PS3 & X360 usually costs 699).
So that's what I'll do that night But there's still one more game left to get this year: Ratchet & Clank: Nexus (it's called that in Europe). It is the final part in the Future series. I find it strange that there's no Future in the title like with the other ones. Anyway, I didn't play R&C during the PS2 years and I don't plan on getting the original triogy. But back in July this year I got both Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time. I did not get Quest for Booty because it's basically just a fill in between ToD & ACiT.
But Nexus won't come until Q4 this year, presumably November month. And to save me some money I want the game as a Christmas present. It'll be my number 1 "ME WANT"
But I read that the November release is so far only for North America. I hope it'll come at least before Christmas Eve (we already celebrate on Eve instead of Day). If it will come out next year then I'll just have to wish for some money
So that's it for me. I hope you liked reading this and here's a song for you all to enjoy

Dropbox Responds To Snowden Privacy Criticisms
NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden has been anything but subtle about his aversion toward Dropbox. Now the storage service's CEO had a few words to say in reply.
Snowden has repeatedly told consumers that if they want to protect their privacy, they ought to avoid Dropbox which he has called a "targeted, wannabe PRISM partner" that is "very hostile to privacy." Snowden recommended a competitor called SpiderOak.
See also: Dropbox For Business Gives Control Freaks What They Want
On Wednesday, Dropbox CEO Drew Houston used his platform at the Dublin Web Summit to indirectly respond to Snowden's remarks, emphasizing a priority on user experience.
"If you offer zero knowledge encryption we understand the motivation for that, but there are downsides to it," he said. "Third-party tools are offered to do that, but of course that [affects making] all my stuff searchable and indexed and rendered well in previews. People have different tradeoffs."
In other words, Dropbox offers limited privacy in exchange for seamless integration between desktop and mobile versions, Dropbox and third party apps, and other features.
When asked at the summit whether or not Snowden's remarks had affected Dropbox usage, Houston noted that 1.2 billion users continue to use the service.
"It's never fun when people throw rocks," he says. "But how many [negative] articles were there about Facebook and Zuck? There are a lot of happy things but we go from the company who can do no wrong to the one who can do no right…. You are never quite as good as people say you are but also never quite as bad."

Dropbox Denies 7M Password Leak, Says Stolen Logins Are From Other Sites
On Monday, a Reddit thread surfaced with links to Pastebin files containing a slew of Dropbox logins. And, said the hacker, there's plenty more where that came from—roughly 7 million compromised accounts in total.
The initial leaks came to hundreds of unencrypted Dropbox usernames and passwords, all available in plain text. The anonymous perpetrator claimed this was just a taste of the voluminous hack and promised to leak more in exchange for bitcoin "donations." The top of one of the Pastebin files reads:
As more BTC is donated , More pastebin pastes will appear
At this time, the source of the data is unknown.
See also: Heartbleed Defense: The 3-Step Password Strategy Everyone Should Use
Although 7 million accounts only comes to about 3% of the 220 million that Dropbox services, that's no consolation for the folks whose logins have been compromised.
Just after contending with a Selective Sync glitch that errantly deleted user files, Dropbox finds itself at the center of another data integrity issue. But this time, the company says, it's not to blame. In a statement to The Next Web, the cloud storage provider flat-out denied that it was hacked. Instead, it pointed the finger at third-party services:
Dropbox has not been hacked. These usernames and passwords were unfortunately stolen from other services and used in attempts to log in to Dropbox accounts. We'd previously detected these attacks and the vast majority of the passwords posted have been expired for some time now. All other remaining passwords have been expired as well.
The Reddit community set about checking if the logins were legitimate, and some members claimed that, while several were expired, some others still appeared to be valid as of late Monday night.
How To Safeguard Yourself
Some Dropbox users may notice a prompt or message from the company, urging them to change their passwords or turn on two-factor authentication, a secondary measure that requires entering a six-digit security code in addition to login credentials.
But whether you see the warning or not, you would still be wise to take action. It's better to be safe than sorry.
Log into your Dropbox account and change your password. (For tips on choosing good ones, click here.) On the same page, you can switch on two-step verification. For more information about this extra step, check out Dropbox's description here.
Once you've secured your Dropbox account, take one more step and think about anywhere else you may have used the same username and password combo. You'll want to change those too—and then vow never to use the same credentials in multiple places again. Once logins are out in the open, other parties can try them at various sites, from Facebook and Gmail to the major online banking sites. Automated bots would make very easy work of this.
As for this breach, ReadWrite has contacted Dropbox for more information, and will update this post if the company responds.
Update: Dropbox posted a message on its blog stating that the logins were "stolen from unrelated services." Unlike Snapchat, whose data breach stemmed from other services using its APIs to connect with it, Dropbox chalks this one up to a much more mundane reason: people using the same password on different services.
The company says the attackers just kept trying the logins at various sites, including its own:
Recent news articles claiming that Dropbox was hacked aren't true. Your stuff is safe. The usernames and passwords referenced in these articles were stolen from unrelated services, not Dropbox. Attackers then used these stolen credentials to try to log in to sites across the internet, including Dropbox. We have measures in place to detect suspicious login activity and we automatically reset passwords when it happens.
Attacks like these are one of the reasons why we strongly encourage users not to reuse passwords across services. For an added layer of security, we always recommend enabling 2 step verification on your account.
Update: 10/14/2014 12:30am PT
A subsequent list of usernames and passwords has been posted online. We've checked and these are not associated with Dropbox accounts.

Hacker Leaks Hundreds Of Dropbox Logins, Claims 7 Million Up For Grabs
Monday night, a Reddit thread surfaced with links to Pastebin files containing a slew of Dropbox logins. And, said the hacker, there's plenty more where that came from—to the tune of 7 million accounts in total.
The initial leaks came to some 1,200 Dropbox usernames and passwords, all in plain text. The anonymous commenter claimed this was just a taste of the voluminous hack, and promised to leak more in exchange for bitcoin "donations."
As more BTC is donated , More pastebin pastes will appear
The Reddit community set about checking if they were legitimate, and members claim that several appear to be valid.
At this time, the source of the data is unknown.
Dropbox, which already contended with another major problem this morning—a Selective Sync glitch that errantly deleted user files—said that it's not to blame this time. In a statement to The Next Web, the cloud storage company flat-out denied that it was hacked. Instead, it pointed the finger at third-party companies that connect to Dropbox accounts:
Dropbox has not been hacked. These usernames and passwords were unfortunately stolen from other services and used in attempts to log in to Dropbox accounts. We'd previously detected these attacks and the vast majority of the passwords posted have been expired for some time now. All other remaining passwords have been expired as well.
At this point, some Dropbox users may notice a prompt or message from the company, urging them to change their passwords or turn on two-factor authentication. But whether you see the warning or not, the sheer volume of the alleged hack should be reason enough to take action.
Start by changing your password. Then turn on two-factor verification—a secondary measure that requires entering a six-digit security code in addition to your login credentials.
The company outlines the steps to turn on two-step verification here.
Once you've secured your Dropbox account, take one more step and think about anywhere else you may have used the same username and password combo. Then change those as well. Once the information is out in the open, other parties can try that login at various sites—from Facebook and Gmail to the major online banking sites—and bots would make very easy work of this.

iOS 8 Warning: Apple's Dropbox Killer Could Murder Your App Data
After a summer of waiting, Apple is unleashing iOS 8, the latest version of its mobile operating system on Wednesday. Among the new features that promise to improve the way you we use our iPhones and iPads, there's one item that could do the opposite: iCloud Drive.
The new online storage and sync option comes new as part of iOS 8, and it's supposed to make documents and other data easy to access from both your Apple mobile device and OS X desktop software. The problem: For Mac users, it relies on the latest version of the computer operating system, Yosemite, which isn't out yet.
Here's what you need to know.
iCloud Drive Could Make Some Functions Evaporate
Similar to Dropbox or Google Drive, iCloud Drive is supposed to let you and your apps access data, no matter what Apple device you use (though they need to be new enough to run iOS 8 and Yosemite).
If you're upgrading to the new iPhone software immediately, the most imperative thing to do—apart from backing up your phone—is not enabling the iCloud Drive option.
See also: Apple Offers Handy How-To For Android Users Who Want To Make The Switch
Apps—like Realmac Software's Clear productivity app—can't function with the feature turned on. Originally, the app featured a desktop component that communicated with the mobile app. iOS 8 and Yosemite hijacks that functionality, unless the user shuts it off. The developer explains in a blog post:
As OS X Yosemite is still pre-release (and not yet available) upgrading to iCloud Drive will prevent you from syncing with Clear for Mac until both OS X Yosemite is released and you upgrade to OS X Yosemite.
Developers cannot work around the choice made when upgrading to iOS 8, so please make sure you pay close attention to the iCloud Drive screen shown after you update to iOS 8.
Once you install iOS 8, you'll be asked whether to turn on iCloud Drive. The simple fix: Pick "Not now."
The iOS 8 update might affect more than just Clear, though.
Other Apps May Be Buggier After Updating To iOS 8 Too
Dropbox also discovered a "compatibility" bug for iOS 8 users. Last night, the company said:
We've discovered that Apple's new iOS 8 introduces a compatibility issue that may prevent Dropbox and Carousel from properly uploading your photos and videos. This means that only the contents of your "Recently Added" album will upload automatically.
If you upgrade to iOS 8, don't delete photos or videos from your devices until you're sure that your stuff has backed up to Dropbox. Please visit our Help Center for additional details on how to keep your stuff safe.
In essence, it explains that sending photos to the main Dropbox and Carousel services can be buggy, although the report seems pretty vague about the exact problem. Whatever it is, Dropbox says it's working with Apple to fix it, but to battle confusion for now, it's suspending automatic backup of photos and videos.
There will likely be other issues that crop up—that tends to happen whenever new software gets publicly launched—so to be safe, you may not want to grab iOS 8 right away.
But if you're brave and rush to download it anyway—available for the iPhone 4s and later, iPad 2 and later, iPad mini and later, or the fifth-generation iPod touch—let us know how you find the new software. Deposit your disappointments (or joys) in the comments below.

Dropbox Antes Up In The Cloud-Storage Price War
Cloud storage platform Dropbox announced today that it is offering a terabyte of storage for $9.99 a month, the same terabyte storage price set by competitors Google Drive and Microsoft's One Drive.
This is just the latest move in the great cloud computing war of 2014, as these three heavy hitters engage in a race to the bottom for the consumer's storage gigabyte. In March, Google announced a terabyte for $10 a month and 10 terabytes or more for $100 a month
Apple, meanwhile, plans to release its iCloud Drive later this year, which will offer 5GB for free, 20GB for a dollar a month or 200GB for $4 a month.

Now You, Too, Can Obsess Over Your Dropbox File Permissions
Last month, Dropbox gave business users in its early access program the ability to rule their corporate accounts with an iron fist. Now the cloud storage company has opened the gate, allowing all business customers to obsess over their folder and file permissions too.
See also: Dropbox For Business Gives Control Freaks What They Want
The July announcement granted administrators highly requested features covering view-only permissions for shared folders, and passwords and expirations for shared links.
This move is undoubtedly Dropbox's way of answering critics who were unconvinced about the tightness of its security. With these changes, managers and authorized workers can fine-tune sharing controls, so freelancers, contract workers and other contacts don't have unbridled access to company documents.

Dropbox For Business Gives Control Freaks What They Want
Dropbox announced a slew of updates that offer more control over shared work files and new tools for app developers.
The changes allow for more fine-tuned access control over who can view or edit documents, and for how long, as well as improved search and new APIs, so app makers can interact with shared Dropbox For Business docs.
These are welcome changes for the 80,000 paying companies on Dropbox's client list. And they may help quell critics who have been complaining about Dropbox's lack of attention to security and administration.
Locking Down The Box
Last April, Dropbox rattled the business cloud-storage world when it expanded its popular personal service into the work world. It made sense on the surface. Individuals were using its online file storage in their personal lives. In the era of "bring your own device" to work, of course they'd want to use it in their jobs too.
Since then, the outstanding issue for Dropbox has been security. Critics pointed out that sensitive business information is not the same as cat photos or dinner recipes. Sharing has to be locked down and managed better at work. The system also needs to be simple and easy to use, as otherwise employees will ignore or bypass it.
The company finally answered that call today, announcing view-only permissions that let users determine who can view or edit files within the shared folders they created. They can also set passwords and expiration dates on shared links. These changes should please IT managers and bosses, while full-text search should make the whole workforce happy. Now workers can search keywords contained in documents, not just file names.
See also: Dropbox Gets Down To Business
Today, Dropbox also announces new tools for app makers: APIs for Shared Folders and Document Previews, so outside developers can build Dropbox for Business functionality into their apps, or enable document previewing through these apps. With this, the company could be tipping its hand about turning its work-oriented cloud service into an actual enterprise platform.
Timing Is Everything
The new changes follow others introduced this year, including Project Harmony, its new collaboration with Microsoft Office. But, since its debut last year, the elephant in the room has been security.
Why Dropbox took so long to bolster that isn't clear. The company says it has been working on these features for 16 months in total. That's a pretty lengthy development cycle.
See also: Amazon Courts Companies With New Work Storage Service
The timing is interesting—particularly since it slides in just before the beginning of the last quarter of the financial year, and the company is reportedly hoping to go public sometime this year. So it's no shock if the company seems gung ho about courting customers even harder now.
So far, Dropbox has attracted 80,000 paying businesses, which seems like an okay start. But it's a drop in the bucket compared to its consumer cloud-storage service, which is 300 million users strong. Its client list also accounts for a mere sliver of the millions of U.S. companies that do business today.
Whether these changes will be enough to attract more customers will be up to the companies to decide. But at least admins can preview some of these features by joining the early access program.

Dropbox CEO: "We're Not Cutting Prices"
A hundred gigabytes of storage, enough for years and years of photos, costs $9.99 a month on Dropbox. Google Drive, a largely similar service, costs $1.99, or 80 percent less.
Dropbox CEO Drew Houston defended his company's pricing under tough questioning Wednesday evening by Recode journalists Liz Gannes and Walt Mossberg in an interview at the Code Conference in Los Angeles.
"We're not cutting prices," said Houston.
He noted that his company now has 300 million registered users and that he regularly hears from users who have tried competing services like Box or Microsoft's OneDrive and come back to Dropbox.
Gannes pointed out that Carousel, a new photo-sharing app from Dropbox, was struggling in Apple's App Store with a very low download rank. Houston responded that Dropbox was still improving the app and didn't want to promote it until it was ready.
Instead of competing on price, Houston said, Dropbox was going to keep improving tools like Carousel and Project Harmony, a tool for collaborating on Office documents while using Dropbox for storage.
Houston wasn't blasé about the big challengers coming after him—everyone from Google and Microsoft to Apple, which once tried to acquire Dropbox.
"We've been worried since the day the company was founded," he said. "All these companies are doing a better and better job of what we're doing."

How Documents Stored On Box And Dropbox Could End Up On Google
Those files you're storing on cloud services like Dropbox or Box may not be as secure as you think.
Both services, like other cloud-storage providers, allow users to share links to their stored documents. But sending those links out, even to trusted individuals, can also inadvertently give third parties access to your files as well, according to findings publicized by the file-sharing company Intralinks—which, by the way, is a competitor to both Box and Dropbox.
Dropbox says it's working to fix the problem by disabling any previously shared links that might be vulnerable to leakage. Box released an email statement saying that it has found no evidence that anyone has abused such "open links" and touting the various privacy settings it offers its users to "help manage access to their content."
Intralinks chief security officer John Landy wrote that his company inadvertently stumbled upon the vulnerability in the course of running a Google Adwords campaign that mentioned its competitors. That campaign turned up shared-file URLs that led straight to sensitive files that ordinary users had stored on Box and Dropbox—including bank records, mortgage applications and tax returns. Security blogger Graham Cluley, who also blogs for Intralink, provides some examples.
How That Leakage Happens
How, exactly, that happened involves some conjecture. Landy wrote that some Dropbox and Box users apparently created shared links to their files, which they or their recipients then mistakenly entered into a browser search box instead of the URL bar. Doing so and then clicking on an ad—which may seem a fairly unlikely occurrence, at least until you multiply it by the number of people sharing files across the Internet—would then send the file's URL to the ad network.
One Intralinks executive quoted by Cluley estimated that in one of the company's Adwords campaign, five percent of all hits (presumably meaning ad clicks) yielded URLs to private files, half of which required no password to access. That "small" campaign turned up more than 300 documents.
There's also a second way links to private files could leak out to the world. If a shared Dropbox or Box document itself contains links to other sites, clicking on one will pass along the document's URL to the next website as part of what's known as a referer header, where administrators of the second site could see it.
It's not clear if similar vulnerabilities exist for other cloud-storage services such as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.
No Password Required
The problem for Box and Dropbox is that they don't make their shared links more secure, Landy wrote. Recipients of shared links should have to log into the service to authenticate themselves by default, he suggested.
Dropbox engineering vice president Aditya Agarwal said in a blog post that his company hasn't detected any malicious attacks involving shared file URLs. Dropbox decided to disable any affected document links anyway. The vulnerability has been patched for any shared links going forward, so only previously shared items are affected.
Dropbox customers can recreate their shared links, and the company will restore old links as it confirms that particular documents aren't vulnerable. Agarwal also noted that Dropbox for Business users can require password access to shared files; ordinary users of Dropbox's free service don't have that option.
The Dropbox post only addresses one of the two vulnerabilities outlined by Intralinks—the leak-via-referer-header method. In an update, Agarwal wrote that Dropbox is aware that file URLs could leak via search engines that pass them to ad partners, but said that issue is "well known" and that the company "doesn't consider it a vulnerability."
Like Dropbox for Business customers, users of Box can also require passwords for file access, although in neither case is that security feature turned on by default. "Box also displays a message to help users understand the permissions for their content," a Box spokesperson said via email.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 2221 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Joe11 This hotel nickles and dimes you. I knew the hotel was expensive and you would think most of what you needed would be included in the price but it was ridiculous for all the "extras" you have to pay. Way too long of lines for everything. Took almost an hour to check in; elevator waiting time was too excessive. Staff seemed tired and not interested in service. December 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Madea31 Rooms better than standard of the lobby The room was very good and the staff (especially security) very attentive to my needs and helpful. Main entrance, admitting to the hotel lobby is somehow discouraging, given the huge traffic of people; open doors do not keep a good temperature inside. Lobby lacked in "coziness" to a tired and sick (as I was) foreign traveler. December 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wilson Nice hotel! I am a Hotelier myself and this is the first time I've stayed at this property. I checked in after mid night and the gentleman at the front desk complimented me a late check out as well as complimentary breakfast! Great hospitality! The only thing, I don't think my bed was a 'sweet sleeper'? Other than that, great experience. February 6, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by lsr510 This rooms has a great loacation I was disapointed from arrival. Ad a 75 might Platinum I would expect more. I was on a room on the 9th floor with a view of a rood. I did not get the upgrades from my suite night awards as I was told the hotel was gull but spoke to a gentlemen on the 44th floor who was not even in the program and he was upgraded to a suite. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Duckie3 Great hotel and service Excellent location, excellent hospitality and service. Thanks to Mr. J. Lomitola and Ms. E. Turkewitz for their professional and courteous help. This was not our first visit and we look forward to come again soon! May 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Glenn123 Great location/staff in NYC Based on some reviews, I had some concerns about staying at this property for our family vacation. We are just back, and I felt it important to highlight that our stay was excellent. Daenous (sp?) pronounced Donnis, at check-in was really helpful and courteous as were both Concierge attendents who helped us book great meals. October 11, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by JMichael Great central location; fair accomodations Great location with lots of room downstairs. Great bar and lounge. Room was fair sized, but, constant drone of elevators and people in the hallway made sleeping difficult. Nothing wrong with this hotel, in fact its pretty nice, but might look for better options near by given the great selection of hotels within a few blocks. September 1, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Missy31 Birthday Stay Nice hotel, however the bathrooms are stand up shower no tub. I stayed on the club lounge and expected to have a view or nice spacious room. It was extremely small, the view was of buildings. One front desk staff member was a bit starky. However the club lounge staff was impeccable. April 16, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by SYNTS Ok but scratchy sheets I like this hotel...the location, staff, cleanliness, however, the sheets are scratchy, rough and not soft. This is the second time I've stayed at this hotel and both times I was not able to sleep well because the sheets were not comfortable. The bed is fine but I don't know if they use too much bleach or detergent or what. September 28, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by marsita This hotel is in a great location in NYC the hotel is near a subway stop, taxis are readily available, shopping and museums near by. It is a busy hotel due to its location. Room size is small by American standards and looks exactly like represented on website. The rooms don't seem to have insulation for sound - I was awakened by the phone ringing in a nearby room. July 21, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Joan49 Need to alert guests in advance if the President is coming to the hotel! I would like to have been alerted to the fact that President Obama was going to be attending an event at this hotel during my stay. This caused a huge inconvenience to the guests trying to enter and exit the hotel as the streets and entrances were blocked off with NYPD for several hours. Also the TV reception was terrible. December 5, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by samakam Midtown Delight. This is a very big and busy hotel. Great location, just above broadway and just below central park. Convenient to everything. Rooms are not the smallest I've seen in new york. Actually, very comfortable. Quick elevator service. Never a wait. Very clean hotel. Newly renovated? Very pleasant staff. Doggy friendly. Thank You. June 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by marley Staff is great Week ends have waited up to 30 minutes to get to lobby, takes at least 2 calls before service elevator is used. Staff makes up for extras not at hotel. Different and more food being offered in lounge would be nice.Microwave in room would be nice. My stay will be months and its nice to have staff as nice as you have. Thanks May 25, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by KJTL lack of customer service Our room was not available when check-in, I ask if they can contact me on my cell phone upon room available. Front desk lady said, we are busy and can not provide this service but you may call us to check. We had to pay $3.25/item to store our luggages for 3 hrs. This is a 4 star hotel yet it's definitely LACKING services. April 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BRLauren Overall Pretty Great The staff was helpful and accommodating. I'm not sure why my mini bar and snack drawer were both locked, but it took several requests for me to access a bottle of water. The room was clean and comfortable, a good rate for a room in NYC. May 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ron3422 My stay at the Sheraton Towers in NYC The hotel and service was first class in every respect. The club room breakfast as well as the evening cocktail hour far exceeded anything I've has in other Sheraton Hotels over the past several years. I can't wait to come in March of 2013. Congratulations for providing a superior experience. Ron R from MN and Scottsdale March 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Redheadedgypsy1 SPG award stay Spoke with a Sheraton rep to book my NY Sheraton stay. She went out of her way to find me a club room. The room was lovely, very clean, nicely appointed. Free breakfast and nightly hors d'ouvres. My only reservation was that the room and bathroom were quite small for two women. Still, overall the experience was excellent. October 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by DMac1970 Don Macaulay Outstanding service and really nice hotel. I try to book this place every time I travel to new york (I go there a lot for business!). Not only is it centrally located, but it is a beautifully appointed hotel. Kuddos to the entire staff. May 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by coast2coastpaul Hotel needs check-in help Everything was more than satisfactory, including staff responsiveness to a room change request. BUT the checkin process was slow, and under staffed on a busy Saturday there were only 2 checkin staff for many people May 20, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by sleepy99 LOUD HOTEL very very busy and loud lobby area, unorganized check in. Hallways were loud at night after 10 pm, doors slamming etc... not very restful even though the beds were very comfortable. We were running a 1/2 marathon the next morning, and sleeping was not a good option at this hotel. April 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Randee Anniversary The hotel staff was excellent. One bellman gave us a recommendation for a restaurant. It was excellent. We were celebrating our parents 60th Anniversary. Also, because of Sandy, hurricane we were given concessions for our last night stay. We really appreciated it and have recommended the Sheraton to all of our friends. November 7, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Chris Great service Room was comfortable and the staff recognized my specific requests: high floor, away from the elevator. The room was recently renovated, clean and comfortable. The staff left a welcome letter, a complimentary bottle of Saratoga water and apples. For the first time in a long while I felt like I was a valued guest. Kudos! April 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tika2001 Tiny Room Overall the hotel is excellent and the staff are terrific. However, my room, which was on the Club level, was very small. I could barely squeeze between the bed and the credenza. I stayed at the hotel last year (on the Club level) and I don't remember the room being that small. Also the bathroom did not have a bathtub. October 31, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by cokavt Great Conference Facilitities Attended a conference and was surprised that the hotel had wonderful meeting rooms. Elevators very fast and efficient, location great for meal options, and everything is within walking distance or subway during non conference times! May 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Samlk HOTEL WAS GREAT/DINING ROOM PRICES WERE NOT Hotel was very nice as expected, short walk to Central Park and Times Square. We knew that prices were high in New York, but $30.00 for a slightly above average Breakfast Buffet!!! Of course you don't have to eat there, but you would think that they could afford their guests the convenience at a more reasonable price. August 15, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by George49 Inability to handle large no. Upon arrival at hotel for 4 day conference, hotel was not able to handle multiple registrants waiting in long lines to have access to rooms. After a 4 day stay, hotel did not have information of multiple guests staying in one room and therefore billing was only able to be delivered to one person doing the reservation. October 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Atlanta1 A regular at this hotel! My 20- and 22-yr-old daughters and I have stayed at the Sheraton Towers every visit we have made to NYC over the past 12 years or so! This hotel is centrally located to Times Square to the south and Central Park to the north, with an E line subway stop steps away from the door. I HIGHLY recommend the Sheraton Towers. July 29, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Reggiemk12 Needs Improvement We had a lot of trouble with housekeeping during our one week stay. The cleaning performed varied daily. There was no consistency. They did not clean the bathroom unless we asked for it to be done. Same for vacuuming. At times the beds would not be made. The trash was not emptied daily even when overflowing. The coffee and tea were not replenished unless specifically requested. The housekeeping was not what I would expect from a Sheraton. They just did the least amount possible that they could get away with. They even fought with us when we asked for an additional comforter giving us the third degree about why we needed one and what we were going to use it for. We brought the issues to the attention of the housekeeping managers who apologized but the fact that the room was not cleaned daily makes me question returning to this hotel the next time we are in NYC. The housekeeping service was not what one expects from a Sheraton hotel and certainly detracted from our stay. July 6, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by PrairieRose Convention One of 2000 women attending a convention, I was pleased with the service and location to New York City attractions. I walked to most places I wanted to visit. One glitch was getting the bill split correctly for the four of us sharing a room. The desk person was courteous, but the process was lengthy and cumbersome. August 1, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Freddy Sheraton NYC Was disappointed to see holes in the bed cover. The room was so hot we could not sleep. The thermostat was as low as it would go. We were next to 2 rooms that partied from 5pm until we left at 7pm. They were quiet until they returned at 2 am and continued to party. It was not a great experience. We were exhausted !

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Legislation that has the backing of California's attorney general would close a loophole in the nation's toughest assault weapons law, making it more difficult for guns to be swiftly reloaded with high-capacity magazines.
Attorney General Kamala Harris and a Democratic state lawmaker are seeking the change after this summer's massacre at a Colorado movie theater.
The state's regulations allow gun manufacturers to sell weapons in California with magazines that can be removed and replaced quickly using a simple tool known as a "bullet button."
Sen. Leland Yee of San Francisco plans to amend SB249 next week to make it clear that state law bans rifles and shotguns with easily detachable magazines.
The National Rifle Association warns that hundreds of thousands of semiautomatic rifles legally sold in California would become illegal.
