Marion Cotillard Lunches With Her Sexy Rust and Bone Co-star
Marion Cotillard, in a black and white Alaia dress, and her Rust and Bone co-star Matthias Schoenaerts attended a luncheon for their project at Brasserie Ruhlmann in NYC yesterday. It's already been a big week for Marion, who attended the Gotham Independent Film Awards in a Christian Dior dress on Monday night. She, along with Matt Damon, was honoured with a Tribute award for her work in film. Marion's featured on the cover of W magazine's December issue and also recently participated in The Hollywood Reporter's actress roundtable.

We found the script on the screen to be a little lighter on this e-reader than on some competing models and the text was not as sharply defined as it should be. Like other e-ink e-readers, there's some lag when you turn pages and go back and forth between books and the home menu. But it's worth noting that the lag is much more pronounced on this Kobo than on the latest-generation Kindle or Nook e-ink e-readers.
Navigating the device is fairly straightforward--you use a combination of the four-way directional pad (with a center select button) and the four buttons on the side of the device ("Home," "Menu," "Shop," and "Back"). To page forward, you click on the right side of the nav button, and to go back a page, you click the left side (alternatively, you can use the up/down sides of the button).
To put it bluntly, the whole experience feels sluggish compared with the Kindle or the Nook, and it's also worth mentioning that we discovered errors in the e-bookstore when we accessed it from the device. For example, e-books that were marked "free" were priced at 99 cents even though they were indeed free. Also, the store was inaccessible at times when it appeared that our Wi-Fi connection was fine.
To download e-books from the Borders store, you simply download them directly from the device after registering for an account. Alternatively, you can install the Borders desktop app on your Mac or Windows computer, and then "side-load" e-books you've purchased to the device via the USB port. You can also side-load PDF and EPUB files by simply dragging and dropping them onto the Kobo as if it were a storage device. In that regard, this is an "open device" like the Nook and Sony Reader. The big advantage there is the ability to "borrow" e-books from your local library--something you can't do with the Kindle.
You'd think that an e-reader with Wi-Fi would support wireless syncing of your Borders/Kobo library between it and a mobile phone running the Borders or the Kobo app, (Borders and Kobo already have separate apps available for the iPhone, iPad, and Android platforms), but we bought a book via the Borders app on an iPhone and it didn't transfer over to the device. As far as we could tell, there's no way to sync an e-book between the reader and apps on other devices. However, if you subscribe to a newspaper or magazine, new editions will automatically be delivered to the device once you're on a Wi-Fi network.
As far as extras go, unlike some other e-readers, the Kobo doesn't support viewing JPEG and other image files or MP3 audio files. As we said, aside from the built-in Wi-Fi, you get a pretty basic feature set.
In the end, the problem with this e-reader is that while it's OK and is fine to read on (though a little sluggish), competing e-readers like the Kindle and Nook are clearly superior in just about every way. True, you may be able to find the Kobo Wireless eReader for $99 on sale, but you really do get what you pay for. Our advice: pay the extra $40 or $50 for the Kindle or Nook--they're worth it.

'X Factor': 6 things we learned from the judges and hosts after the show
Simon Cowell humbled?
After the live episode of The X Factor wrapped taping on Thursday, the show's judges, hosts and eliminated contestants chatted with press backstage, and the show's creator was captured in a rare low-confidence moment. Read on to learn what the show's talent had to say about notable moments from the episode — including some that didn't make it on-screen — and check out EW's report on the eliminated contestants for scoop on how they believe their mentors could have done better by them. WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! READ FULL STORY
Khloe Kardashian calls One Direction 's--ty,' and 8 other backstage 'surprises' at 'The X Factor'
WARNING! SPOILERS FOLLOW! After boy band extraordinaire One Direction performed twice inside The X Factor's Xanadome to promote their new album Take Me Home – and their fans' piercing screams effectively liquified my eardrums — they happily bounded backstage to speak with the press, along with judges Simon Cowell, Britney Spears, and Demi Lovato, and co-hosts Mario Lopez and Khloe Kardashian Odom. Judge L.A. Reid skipped almost all press — though it was unclear whether he was licking his wounds from the loss of contestant Jason Brock or celebrating that his other two contestants Vino Alan and Tate Stevens came in third and first in the vote tally.
Speaking of that vote tally, the decision of The X Factor to reveal the voting order — seemingly for the first time in American reality competition show history — was topic A for most everyone. That is, when they weren't basking in One Direction's youthful vigor. Here are the top nine highlights of what we learned backstage: READ FULL STORY
'X Factor': 10 things we learned from the judges, hosts, and eliminated contestants after the show
The X Factor has wrapped up its first week of live shows, and all of the talent involved had plenty to divulge about the experience. After Thursday's show, judges, hosts, and recently eliminated contestants made the rounds in the press lounge, which is lined with portraits of this season's contestants and video screens displaying the show's familiar turquoise-and-pink 'X' logo. EW has already told you what Simon Cowell and Khloé Kardashian had to say about the unexpectedly sheer top she wore on Wednesday night's show. Here are 10 more things we learned on the scene about the road to unveiling the Top 12.
1. The judges tend to open up more in the press room about their elimination decision, where it's surely easier to be honest about their decision than when they're talking directly to the artist they're sending home on live TV. L.A. Reid told reporters he opted to keep flamboyant Jason Brock in the competition instead of edgy David Correy because "Jason just really makes me smile. It's fun to me. David is really strong also but just a little bit predictable kind of try-hard. I like genuine fun. I like it when people just lose themselves in their little moment." Was it tough to make that decision? "The politically correct answer would be yes. The truth is no," Reid admitted. READ FULL STORY
'X Factor': Khloe Kardashian and Simon Cowell talk about that nipple-revealing first live show
As The X Factor started its live shows on Wednesday night, Khloé Kardashian got quite the induction to the show when she stepped on stage with fellow new host Mario Lopez. At that moment attention was directed not at Britney Spears or Demi Lovato but at a new star: Kardashian's chest — plenty of viewers noticed that the host wasn't wearing a bra underneath her sheer purple top.
"May I say, Khloé, you're looking very sexy… I think the air conditioning is on high tonight," Simon Cowell told her.
In the press room after Thursday's results show, Kardashian was very open to talking about her revealing first live taping. Warning: What follows is an account that veers into the anatomically specific. READ FULL STORY

Lack of standardized physical security measures at general aviation airports across the country could allow intruders to commandeer planes, presenting a terrorism risk, according to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released yesterday (.pdf).
The GAO visited 13 general aviation airports--three of which also serviced commercial flights--and assessed how the airports' security measures prevent unauthorized access to the airport and its planes. Unlike commercial airports, general aviation airports are not required to implement a broad range of standardized physical security measures by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Rather TSA has provided general aviation airport operators voluntary security guidelines, but many operators have not bolstered physical security because of scarce resources.
During the GAO's assessment, its investigators did find that 12 of the 13 airports had perimeter protection. But half of those with some type of perimeter protection had fencing too close to impediments like greenery. "[A]t 6 of the airports fencing was partially bordered by bushes or trees or located next to a parking lot, which can obstruct surveillance or allow someone to scale or topple the fence," the GAO reports.
None of the ten exclusively general aviation airports had perimeter lighting, which the report says provides a real and psychological deterrent to intruders. Officials at some of those airports told the GAO that they didn't need perimeter lighting because street lights provided enough illumination. All 13 airports visited, however, did have lighting around hangars.
The ten general aviation airports also monitored for intrusions differently, generally preferring CCTV and on-site law enforcement or private security guards to integrated intrusion detection systems. (For a breakdown of the security measures at the airports, see the chart on the next page.)
"The results of our assessment are meant to illustrate the variation in physical security conditions at the selected airports," the GAO report explains. "Since TSA does not require the implementation of security measures for airports with only general aviation operations, our assessments are not meant to imply that any of the 13 airports we visited have failed to implement required security measures."
Three general aviation airports admitted that they have had instances of intruders gaining access to the airport. One airport reported that it had two planes removed or stolen from the airport without approval. The stolen airplane was recovered in Mexico.

Screw him facing JUVINILE criminal charges!!! The juvinile justice system is a damn joke! Theres absolutely NO REAL PUNISHMENTS in the juvinile court system. I don't give a damn that the little THUG is only 11yrs old. HE THOUGHT HE WAS ADULT ENOUGH TO STEAL A FREAKING CAR!!! He put other innocent lives that were out on the roadways that night in serious jepardy. Charge this little THUG WANNABEE as an adult, or i garuntee we will all be seeing him when he's like 15yrs old commiting something like armed robbery, murder, or something serious like that. And he will do those things when he gets older because he was NOT held fully responsible for his criminal actions when he stole the car, and will keep commiting crimes while he is a juvinile because he thinks the law cant touch him while he is still a juvinile.NOW is the time, and age when the whip needs to be cracked on his ass to straighten him out! Grand thieft auto isn't a childs play offence! Let this brat KNOW WHAT TRUE PUNISHMENTS FOR HIS CRIMES ARE NOW!!! Don't just give him a little tap on the hand, and send him home with mommy, because that does NOT teach him anything except that he can get away with anything he WANTS to do!! It's time our justice system took off the "Kid gloves" and started holding these thugs FULLY responsible for their actions!July 19 2012 at 9:12 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down Reply

To: csmjwoody: Thank goodness for LEOs' like you. Much the same thing happened to me when I was 13. My friend and I had taken a pick-up truck from the church we worked at. I know it was stupid. But we got caught. The arresting officers questioned us and we told the truth. Well to make a long story short. The one officer called my parents. Yes, of course we know where our son is he is in bed. Well much to their suprise I was not in bed. I was in the truck. Now this could have gone one or two ways. Off to jail or the Officer talking to my folks. Thank goodness he talked to my folks. They came to pick me up, but there was no conversation about not leaving marks. The officer was a good guy. He could see the heart break in my parents and the steam coming from my fathers ears. He called the church and verified our employment and the pastor did not want to press charges. The pastor came down picked up the truck and I went off with my Mom and Dad. Geeze I wish I would have been arrested.
Lets just say I learned my lesson and did not have a criminal record. There are compassionate officers out there.

I was a law enforcement officer for more than 30 years and one night at about 2 am I stopped a car because i could not see a driver behind the wheel. When I walked up to the car I found a young boy was the sole occupant and had been driving. It turned out he was 9 years old and the car belonged to his parents. I used a phone in my patrol unit to call the parents and when the mother answered I asked if she had a son and gave his name and she told me Yes. I asked her if she knew where he was at and she told me Yes that he was in bed. I asked her to go check and she came back and told me he was gone. Then her husband came on the line and I asked if he owned a certain year Cadillac and he told me Yes. I had him describe it to me and asked him to go see if it was still there and came back and told me it was gone. I told him my location and asked him to come to that location to identify the young boy I had stopped driving his car. When the fater arrived he told me it was his son. I explained what had occurrred and he asked if he could handle th punishment and I told him by all means go ahead. The father took his son home and came back on foot later for his car. I did tell the father not to leave marks or bruises on the child but a spanking was definitely in order.June 26 2012 at 2:45 AM Report abuse Permalink +3 rate up rate down Reply

Here is the kicker that i don't get, if this was a trap by the cops, then why did it take so long for the cops to find the vehicle and stop them before they could cruise around town and possibly hurt someone. Let's also not mention this could have been some wanna be gangster that stole the car, the cops would then pursue him and try to arrest him, at which point he might try to run for it, and now we have a high speed chase that is putting innocent lives at risk.

I'd love to know where you think a "bait car" is entrapment? If the damn car DOES NOT BELONG TO YOU, THEN YOU SHOULD NOT BE GETTING IN TO IT, OR TAKING IT ANYWHERE!! It's people like you on why this world is screwed up like it is! People like YOU trying to blame the wrong doing of a CRIMINAL on everyone else besides the criminal!I don't give a damn if a $1,000,000 car is left with its doors unlocked, windows down, and keys in the ignition! IT DOES NOT BELONG TO YOU, AND YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS GETTING INTO THE CAR, AND TAKING IT!!!! If you are STUPID enough to get into the car, and take it, then you have no one to blame for your STUPID CRIME BUT YOURSELF!!!! It is NOT entrapment! It's sorry ass criminals trying to get something for free, something that they didnt work hard for to purchase on their own. And they deserve EVERYTHING they get, and then some punishment wise. If YOU want a car, then get a damn job and buy one WITH YOUR OWN MONEY! Don't steal it from the people that have busted their asses, and sacraficed, and saved to purchase the car!!!!July 19 2012 at 9:55 AM Report abuse Permalink +1 rate up rate down
This is in no way entrapment. Entrapment is when a person is talked into or convinced to do something that he wouldn't do otherwise. In this situation, the kid was in no way talked into stealing the car. The theft was his own idea. Please don't try and think you're a lawyer, OK?August 15 2012 at 9:15 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down
AND where were the 3 kids parents.?? Who was suppose to be watching them if NOT the parents??
The parents should also face fines or jail time for the kids not being watched.!!! THIS is what is wrong with kids.. they have to much freedom. IF they were bored and needed to do something, the parents should put them to work doing chores around the house.!!!!!!!!!!!! Lazy..!!!!!!!!!

Some folks are not big fans of freedom and independence. This was not supposed to be the land of the safe and secure and comfortable. It's the land of the free and the brave, full of people willing to die for freedom. Freedom and independence are messy and dangerous. Which do you want more? Because you cannot have both in abundant measure. The more security the more tyranny and less freedom. Our founders did not write the declaration of safety. They wrote the Declaration of Independence, and they were willing to be insecure to attain it.June 26 2012 at 3:01 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down

Harvesting Votes?
A conference call with aides to Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran crashed on July 2 when a participant accused the Republican lawmaker of "harvesting" Black votes to win his June run-off, Politico reports. "If Black people were harvesting cotton, why is it OK to harvest their votes?" the caller asked. Since the victory, Cochran's campaign has been accused of buying the votes of Black Democrats who helped him win and other irregularities.

He broke up with me, but says he still loves me...I'm totally confused!!!
Ok, so basically my boyfriend broke up with me a week ago. His reasoning was because he just wants some time to be alone and focus on getting a job and doing good in school and just be spontaneous with his friends. We had gone out for two years and he said it had nothing to do with how he feels about me and has nothing to do with wanting to go out and date other girls, just feels that it is something he has to do. The night after he broke up with me he texted me saying "I hope you know I still love you and I always will." Then he said he didn't want to lose me and after he got over whatever this was he would come crawling back to me. I love him so much and we both felt that we were the one for each other. He even told me that he still wanted to marry me when we were breaking up. I'm just really confused because I feel like if you really cared about someone you wouldn't break up with the person you want to marry. But on the other hand, I want to try to understand his perspective. I don't think he is trying to hurt me and he told me that he hopes this feeling or whatever goes away soon so we can be together. But it's so hard to trust that. I want to give him the space he wants, but I also want him to realize that he might lose me through all this and hope that is a reality check for him that maybe I'm more important than this feeling. As of right now I feel like he knows I love him and even if I wanted to, I wouldn't really be able to move on easily or anytime soon. I feel like that is not fair to me because he gets to do his thing while knowing I'll still be here. How do I get him to realize that he could seriously lose me and speeding up this process without overwhelming him and pushing him away. Any advice about my situation will help... Thank you!

Hey I know this was a while ago but I was just wondering how it all went, because I just came across your question and I am going though the exact same thing now, I lived with my boyfriend then his nan died and he just said I'm moving out I'm not happy, (yeah we argued a little but we were really happy at the time, he even commented on it) since then I adopted the no contact rule, he's been texting saying he loves and misses me and its killing him, and I just told him thanks but to get his head straight and stop texting me that stuff. I love him so much and really do want thim back, but its like he's gone on a complete rebellion against me he seems bitter that I'm coping so well without him (with the flat and stuff).I just don't know where I'm at, because I also know he had messaged other girls asking them to go for a drink, but then more recently was texting me. It all just seems insane, because if I felt like that about someone I wouldn't be doing what he's doing...Anyway I just wondered how your problem went because you have a bit of heinsight now...Thanks xxx
Hi, um... 18 days after my boyfriend broke up with me he called me crying saying it was the biggest mistake of his life and he was so so sorry and he'll do anything to make things how they were again. He was saying that he was willing to spend the rest of his life making it up to me cause he doesn't know how he acted so stupid.I was definitely hesitant. But after talking to his friends a little bit, he was just spending the couple weeks having guy time. Nothing with other girls nothing crazy.

i'm a girl, but I'm in the exact same situation as your boyfriend is. it sounds absurd, but I would believe him... I love my boyfriend, but I just don't know what I want to do with my life and how he's going to fit in it yet (I want to move to europe eventually, so I don't know if he'll be able to come with me), and I'm studying abroad right now and I'm just meeting so many people I don't want to be tied down in a long distance relationship... so I'd say yes, he does love you but he probably just needs some space after 2 years, especially since you're pretty young... just give him some time.
Hi lafeeverte, what happened between you and your boyfriend? I know some time has passed. Do you feel the same way still, did you figure yourself out and how he plays into your life? Its such a mature decision but such a hard one.
Well I think it's okay for you to believe him. I think he will honestly still love you and that he still wants to marry you. Time and space is all he needs. Patience is very important when it comes to issues like this. Give him the time he needs, it's okay to worry, every girl would, but be sure to trust his word, otherwise you will lose each other.
My name is thynaya, i have fall in love with a man called williams, we have been i love for so many years now, i have not experience heart broken from him he love me more than any other thing on earth, until my boyfriend travel to see his mother, when he comes back he have not been the same that he is, he was change totally but i can't live without him, even if i went to greet him in his house he will send me away, i keep crying every day, i try so many spell caster but know one could help me out, until i heard of Dr okpodu i said okay let me try him and i really i contacted Dr opkodu, can you believe it my ex lover who said that we will never be together again that came to my house and started begging me for forgiveness i have no choice than to forgive him cause i love him so much, please you need to contact this man he can as well help you he is like an angel sent from heaven to save people's life, his email is: firstname.lastname@example.com. try and contact him now thanks.

Redskins' Haynesworth sheds weight
Albert Haynesworth has

By RICH CAMPBELL
When Haynesworth has visited other cities, such as Miami, Smith has accompanied him. Haynesworth and Smith have been apart for only 2 weeks since April, but Haynesworth maintained his routine even then, Smith said.
"He told me, 'I want to go from April all the way through to July, nonstop, and be ready,'" Smith said. "He kind of set the tone for himself to begin with because I think he knew he had a lot of expectations, not only from teammates but from media and the [new] coaches. I don't think he wanted to disappoint anybody as far as his [physical] preparation is concerned."
Haynesworth's training program is similar to the one he used the past two years, with two notable exceptions.
He wants to weigh less than in past years, Smith said, so there has been more cardiovascular work in addition to the position-specific, explosive weight-lifting exercises to which he's accustomed. Haynesworth weighed 362 pounds on April 5 and checked in yesterday afternoon at 330, Smith said. Haynesworth was listed at 350 in the Redskins' 2009 media guide.
Smith also added boxing training to Haynesworth's routine for the first time. Two days a week for 45 minutes, Haynesworth hits a heavy bag or focus mitts.
"If he can have quicker and more powerful hands than the offensive lineman, then he's going to stand a much better chance of shedding blocks, throwing guys off and getting a quicker punch to them," Smith said. "We've been doing a lot of boxing, and I think he really likes it."
Smith believes that Haynesworth's workouts with him are more fruitful than ever because the eight-year veteran has a more refined idea of what exercises can help him.
Their long relationship has helped Smith tailor a program specifically for Haynesworth, Smith said. He believes that the NFL, if not specifically the Redskins, will see positive results.
"I told him, 'If you show up and are playing like an animal, they're going to forget about the fact that you didn't go to a two-day minicamp or whatever happened aside from football,'" Smith said. "We need to make sure we do what we need to do to basically blow people's heads off with what we've accomplished this summer. I think we're well on our way to it."

The Grove is a challenging space to play in, and seating is uncomfortable since dinner tables are set up so that you end up sitting perpendicular to the stage.

While there, police say Morva took a deputy's gun and shot to death an unarmed hospital guard. Morva then fled and remains at large.

Administrator account
An administrator account is a login ID on a system with elevated privileges, suitable for managing the system -- installing software, applying patches, managing users, starting and stopping services, etc.
On the Windows operating system, the built-in administrator account is literally called "Administrator." Other common names for built-in administrator IDs include "root" on Unix and Linux systems and "sa" (short for system administrator") on SQL Server databases. There is no need for administrator accounts to have default names and in many organizations it is common practice to rename the built-in administrator account to have a different name, so as to make it more difficult to attack them via password guessing and other similar attack methods.
Hitachi ID Privileged Access Manager secures privileged accounts on an enterprise scale:
- It periodically randomizes every privileged password.
- Users must sign into Privileged Access Manager when they need to use a privileged account. Multi-factor authentication can be required.
- Privileged Access Manager launches login sessions on behalf of users, without displaying passwords -- single sign-on.
- Logins to privileged user accounts can be recorded, including screen capture and keyboard logging. This creates strong accountability and forensic audit trails.

The main goal should be helping kids learn
We've heard for years that we shouldn't label people and things and now the accountability reports for state schools are out and schools are being – you guess it – labeled Star or High Performing or whatever all the way down to failing.

Cross: Smith might be Greatest Ever Doctor
Neil Cross, the writer behind Series 7 episodes The Rings of Akhaten and Hide, has praised Matt Smith's Doctor, going as far to say he might be the best ever incarnation of the Time Lord.
Reacting to news of his departure Cross told Stuff: "When he came into our lives as the eleventh Doctor, Matt Smith had some very big Gallifreyan Chuck Taylors to fill. I watched his first episode with sweating palms and crossed fingers: hoping against hope that it would all be okay.
"It was more than okay. Within about ten seconds, I was smiling with relief. He had me at fish fingers and custard; he had us all at fish fingers and custard. By the end of that first episode, The Eleventh Hour, I was punching the air with tears in my eyes."
He adds: "Matt Smith is a great Doctor, maybe the greatest Doctor ever . . . because he is the Doctor. Hearts and soul. I'll miss him desperately. And I can't wait to see what's next."

Fort Hall Woman Pleads Guilty to Assaulting a Federal Officer
POCATELLO – Kayla Teton, 23, of Fort Hall, Idaho, pleaded guilty today in United States District Court to assaulting a federal officer, U.S. Attorney Wendy J. Olson announced. She was indicted on February 26, 2013.
On January 6, 2013, Teton was arrested on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation for intoxication. She was taken to the Fort Hall Correction Center where she refused to change into jail clothing, and slapped a Fort Hall Corrections officer in the face with her hand.
The charge is punishable by up to eight years in prison, a maximum fine of $250,000, and up to three years of supervised release.
Teton is set for sentencing on June 18, 2014, by Chief U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill at the federal courthouse in Pocatello.
The case was investigated by the Fort Hall Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) is a collaborative effort by federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and communities to prevent and deter gun violence.

Something about Rednecks?
It's amazing to see that somebody in the UK actually has a brain and is willing to comment on this mess of survalence going on.
Regarding the redneck holding the rifle and all the ranting/bashing Yank/UK humor that it has generated. As long as the Constitution stands, this sort of thing will not be tolerated on the level that is seen in the UK. It is growing to some degree here, but before it gets out of control people will take notice and it will more than likely be deemed unconstitutional. And if not? Well, thats why we retain the right to bear arms, and the government knows this. Remember, kiddies, wack jobs who go on shooting sprees aside, we are allowed to carry firearms to protect ourselves from our neighbors (said wackos or crooks -but not poloticians), invaders (yeah right) and most importantly, from our OWN government. Thats why it was written into the constitution and why, no matter how hard the libs try, it will always remain in the constitution.
Logitech Harmony 1100 universal remote control
Overpriced Wierd Features
I have a harmony something or other, one of the regular shaped ones (around $100). Its pretty nice but I have few peevs:
Half the time it remembers what is on, the other half it forgets. So if you are watching TV and want to switch to watching a DVD, it goes through its motions of powering off and on and you end up with a TV thats powered off, the DVD player on, and the receiver either off or switched to the correct channel. Kind of a pain.
The other REALLY lame one is this: you can do an "action" of watch DVD. As long as you are in the action mode, you can control the volume of the receiver with the volume button. But if you go into DVD mode, the volume keys do not work, nor is there a provision in the software to cross program them (other than direct learning mode).
Overall, not bad. Would I go for the super $300 one? Hells no!

The UK is the nanny state. Do everything for the people because they are too stupid to take care of themselves. And put a camera on every corner to make sure no one is misbehaving. Or at least thats how the MPs would have you think.
In the US, things are different. You make YOURSELF. Winners in this country don't wait for the government to take care of them. They take care of themselves.
And the armed forces are voluntary. No one is forcing anybody to join up. Most of my friends are ex military. They have all made themselves upper middle class by hard work. Not by waiting for a government hand out.
As for Apples philanthropy, they suck at it. Its part of the culture of that company/Steve though. Buy the latest shiny thing we are selling you so you will look better than your neighbor. Who cares if you need it or not? Love us for building obsolency (sp?) into our products! Love us for charging more than its worth. Why? Because we love ourselves more than the people dying of malaria in Africa. We love ourselves more than the rest of the world. So we are going to keep ALL of our money and how dare you look down on us for not having a heart?
The funny thing about it all is this: in the US, the money you give to charity is a tax write off. At the levels of profit made by Apple, it would make sense to give some away to a good cause, rather than just paying the gvmnt taxes.
At the end of the day, the folks at Apple just don't give a shit about the common man.

It seems pretty apparent that Apple wants to keep doing business as usual, which is telling the people what they need and denying any wrongdoing when things go wrong. Ever. They can get away with it with a stand alone product like an iPod or a laptop, etc, but when you start dealing with peoples everyday communications tools - that they pay for - this isn't going to fly. If Apple wants to get a huge user base like RIM or MS Exchange, they are going to have to get their shit together, keep it together, and be open and up front about the goings on when things go amiss. But we know that won't ever happen, so this product will continue to be a niche Apple thing, people will continue to get treated like shit, and following the all mighty Jobs like blind sheep.

NASA to brief on manned spaceship 'concerns'
NASA = Joke
First, I am a US citizen. Born and raised. Raised in the 70s and 80s on past glories of moon landings and shuttle launches.
Is the shuttle out dated? Absolutely.
Does it make sense to take a HUGE ASS leap backwards and use fire and forget rockets and capsules to recover? Hell no.
Scaled Composites has it in the bag. While NASA takes a GIANT step backwards for man kind, SC is taking steps towards a truely economical and intelligent space craft launch and recovery system. I don't know the exact nubmers, but a very large percentage of the fuel in that big ass tank under the shuttle is used just to get its sorry ass off the ground. So, you spend tons of fuel to get it moving, then once it is up to speed, you ditch the gigantic torches. Same thing with the current idea for the moon rocket.
Now here you have SC re-visiting an idea that worked during the early years of supersonic flight testing: use something else to get it up to speed, then launch from a high altitude. What a novel concept!
Can't wait for SC to show NASA (and the rest of the world) how it's done and put their own lander on the moon in time - and for a profit too!
Mine is the one with the moon dust on it...

IT career virgins need a cherry on top
Is where it's at.
Code all you want, somebody has to make it work on servers. And somebody has to keep those servers happy. That would be me - and countless others. Systems administrators/engineers and network admin/engineers, fortunately, don't have as much of the off shore action as devs get (unless you are helpdesk - then you are screwed!). It takes real people close to your production environment to maintain the equipment that the code lives on. It's a full time job and requires experience more than a degree or certification (if you have both you are golden). Give me any server platform and any product platform to run it on. If I don't know it, give me 4 weeks and I will be up to speed. Give it 6 months and I'll be an expert.
And to all you out of work devs in the UK, come on over to Seattle, plenty of work here. (sys admins too!)

Quantum of Solace trailer teases fans
Awesome Flick
Casino was awesome. The smartest Bond movie since, well, since Live and Let Die. Really. All the rest of them were camp. Fun, but camp. (except Moonraker, which was a total piece of crap riding on the coat tails of Star Wars).
HOWEVER, the new title sucks. Yes it is referenced in a Flemming book, but come on! The word "Quantum" does not belong in a Bond title. I don't care what the reference is, it just isn't tough enough. There I said it.

Why the hell would anybody pay for a browser? I used Opera back in the day when it was free and wasn't impressed. It wasn't bad, per se, but it was no better than anything else out there. Now it's new and improved after all these years and they want people to pay for it? There are so many free browsers there I can't see any reason to pay for one.

US dominates tech R&D
@Phillip Perry
Ya, I agree. Maybe it came off incorrectly, in the above post, but I wasn't using the term ignoramus disparagingly. I am an ignoramus when it comes to C#, Java, etc (actually, I would call myself an idiot!). Its not my thing. And actually I DO go to my delvelopers often to look for answers to issues that are not system related. It's called colaboration! Here at work we are a .Net shop. We use Avicode to dig deep into the happenings of our site when ther are problems (and to find issues before they become problems). It gives us TONS of info, that frankly, I can't make sense of half the time. Where do I go when I get stuck? The developers. And conversely, when there are questions about how the code performs on the server side, they don't bother guessing, the come to our team and ask, because it is not their thing. Happy all around.
Oh, and I wouldn't fire the developer for the memory leak - somebody has to fix it! :D
@Gene Cash
"God knows Americans are idiots. Most of my colleagues can only count "1... 2... uhhh MANY!" They can't google an error message, their "solution" to a server issue is to power it off and back on w/o warning, they don't understand what a heap overflow or memory leak is in Java, and when asked to type in a simple command in bash, the result is total panic.
And no, I'm not posting anonymously, they're too stupid to read El Reg. "
You really are an ass hole.
As for your server solution pang, its not just Americans, its DEVELOPERS. I've worked with my fair share of developers from a variety of nations, and they are pretty much all ignoramuses (sp) when it comes to troubleshooitng a server side issue outside of code. Why? Because they aren't sys admins, thats why! I don't expect them to handle server side issues and they don't expect me to debug their code. Simple as that. Disparaging somebody because they don't share your exact 733t Java skill set is pretty moronic. Try coming out of your own self centered world once in a while and you might find that there is more to life than just you...

Over half of US HD TV owners blurry on Blu-ray
or maybe..
"If you can't tell the difference, either your hardware is lousy, the setup is lousy, or you've got lousy vision."
Or maybe you just don't care! Not everybody is a audio/videophile. I'm all for a good picture, but my upscaling DVD player coupled with my HDTV is just fine. Most of the movies I have look fine. Lots of them are older films that will never be re-mastered in HD, so having an HD player to watch them is pointless. Most of the new movies that are out in HD are crap anyway! And how many times can you watch them before you go back to your old library...
Sorry, but until the players are cheap, the movies are cheap, and the HUGE inventory of old movies are re-mastered to take advantage of the higher res capabilities of this format, its going to continue to stagnate. FFS, you can still go into any electronics store and buy a VHS player of some sort. That should show you how long the demand for an old format is going to stay around...

Better to leave them alone and have them continue to chip away at Google, thereby strengthening MS's position.

I'm not electrical engineer, and I don't play one on TV, but I am sure all of the ideas you folks are throwing in attempts to trash this breakthrough have been considered or are being considered as they figure out how to bring this tech to market. I mean really, do you think HP would spend milions on something like this if they didn't think there would be a practical use for it? This is big business, not some university science project.

HD media future may be Blu, but it's not rosy
Lot of good points
Forget about price, whether Sony and the BD camp beat HD DVD, all that crap.
The strongest argument against adoption is that unless the new movie you are wanting to watch was filmed with HD cameras or is a 100% CGI, its all pointless. You won't realize an increadible picture on 720p or 1080p if the source material is low grade. Like it was said above, older movies will look no better, and in some cases, may even look worse due to upconverting.
For BD or any other future HD configuration to make any sense economically, the content has to be filmed in HD and there has to be lots of it. Right now, neither is the case. Ther are some that are filmed in HD (I watch Planet Earth on DVD upconverted to 1080i and it is INCREDIBLE. Way to go BBC!) but most of the new movies that are coming out are still filmed the old way. So why bother spending hundreds of dollars on equipment just to watch a hand full of movies?
Big companies should have really done their homework on this one before spending the millions...

HD DVD sales still solid despite format's failure
..who but the few AV fanatics out there even care? DVD provides a pretty darn good picture, especially when upscaled for hi def TVs. You won't see large market growth until BD players are under $100 and movies are $20. Until then, why would anybody who doesn't own a PS3 shell out for a player? It's really sad that Sony won this one, reg readers know their history and tactics. Now the rest of the world will get to know it too.

For years they have said that their PCs were the fastest around. But it has been proven time and again that they aren't. So where is the lawsuit? Nowhere. Because Apple can do no wrong. But the eval Microsoft, they have to walk the straight and narrow or else. Give me a break.

Never Surrender!
"As for the glory of the Camerone battle, it is not because they lost - it's because they stuck together and resisted in spite of impossible odds. It's because they stood their ground and never gave up, never surrendered."
Well, ya, too bad they couldn't have used that same gusto in WWII....
Seagate lawsuit targets solid-state drive maker
Don't be niave
"Watkins told the NYT yesterday that one of his goals is to promote cross-licensing deals and partnerships, but a 'sue first, negotiate later' strategy doesn't strike us as the best way of making friends and influencing people."
Even better would be if the company using the patented technology went to the patent holder - before releasing to market - and licensed the technology ahead of time, thereby avoiding said law suit entirely.

Ban using mobiles while crossing street, says US legislator
You Have To Be Kidding
I'm a Yank on the West Coast. This has got to be the most rediculous law I have heard in a long time. Ban cell use while crossing the street? WTF? Better ban reading a map while driving, talking to anybody while doing anything, and breathing too. I doubt very much that a bill this asanine will ever get passed.
paris, because SHE would need this law with a gum chewing addition.
Avaya banks on recession to push cheap comms kit
"This week only, Special Price"
Its like a car dealership with baloons and a giant ape in the front of their lot. Instead of really ripping you off, they are only going to rip you off a little.
Having dealt with Avaya technology in the past, and seen the prices they ask for antiquated technology ( no exposure to the new stuff ) it's no suprise they are feeling the pinch. My own personal example was a CF card to backup a phone system. 16MB card, that at the time you could buy for a C note. They were asking thousands for it. Not because it was any different, but because it was theirs...
Yahoo! tries to whip investors into line
Mystery Money
So just because they say they are going to double their revenu, we are supposed just believe it? What a lookd bullocks (as you brits say). If I was a shareholder with any kind of voice I would be screaming for the board members heads at this point.
Apple's Time Capsule: is its HDD really 'server grade'?
And in other news..
Apple computer announced today the invention of the server grade iLED. The latest must have gadget will allow users around the world to see server status without having to log in to their systems.

Apple has not released pricing to date.
Asus Eee PC gives Sony the willies
Just dropped my eee taking it out of my drawer here at work. Strangely enough, I didn't have to toss it in the bin! Why, it still works! And nothing broke!
Really, calling ASUS stuff crap is silly. They make good kit and have for years. I can't see my eee NOT lasting a good 5-10 years.
