New Interaction Hub Data Sheet Available
In support of the recently released Revision 3 of the PeopleSoft Interaction Hub, we've just produced the latest data sheet for the Hub, which can be found here. This paper covers the highlights of the new release, and describes the our overall direction for the product. The prime topics we cover are as follows:
- Setting up and running a cluster of PeopleSoft applications using the Interaction Hub
- Content Management
- Branding and the User Experience
- Using the Hub with the new Fluid User Interface
PeopleTools/Interaction Hub Dependencies Doc--Updated for Revision 3
The latest version (Revision 3) of the PeopleSoft Interaction Hub is now available. Since Hub Revisions are aligned with PeopleTools releases, we provide a doc that helps explain how the Hub can best be implemented to take advantage of PeopleTools features. This document contains information on how new customers can install PeopleSoft Interaction Hub and existing PeopleSoft Interaction Hub customers can apply PIH 9.1 Revision 3 functionality if they are on an earlier version. It also describes the general upgrade process within the Revision model, and how customers can expect this to work with subsequent revisions, maintenance packs, and bundles.
The document is available on the Portal Solutions home page in Oracle Support.
New Central Resource for Info on PeopleSoft Update Manager
Open World Recap
Oracle's Open World conference was completed in early October. It was one of the best ever for PeopleSoft. We introduced a lot of new and important features like the new Fluid User Experience and the PeopleSoft Update Manager (and much more). The response from customers was overwhelmingly positive. Our sessions were well attended, and the demo grounds were consistently busy with inquisitive customers.
PeopleSoft offered informative general sessions like Paco Aubrejuan's "PeopleSoft Strategy and Roadmap—Modern Solutions Delivered with Ease" . In that session, Oracle's Senior Vice President and General Manager of PeopleSoft Development addressed a standing room only crowd, and described how Oracle's continued investment in PeopleSoft is delivering key innovations that address our customer's greatest challenges:
- Delivering a robust solution that is intuitive and easy to use – regardless of device (mobile device or desktop workstation)
- Ensuring that new PeopleSoft capabilities are delivered on a continuous basis and are easy to adopt at a low cost, without the need to upgrade.
Paco shared how the investments in the new PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface and the new continuous PeopleSoft Delivery Model address these challenges.
PeopleSoft Application sessions were also well attended. Our applications teams provided greater depth and specificity, describing how PeopleSoft applications are taking advantage of the latest PeopleTools technology, particularly in the areas of the Fluid UI and PeopleSoft Update Manager and the new delivery model.
Our PeopleTools Tech sessions were packed with curious, enthusiastic customers. Here are some highlights:
The PeopleTools team delivered several sessions focused on the Fluid User Interface, covering different aspects and for different audiences.
- Matthew Haavisto presented a survey of the new features from a user's point of view, as well as a glimpse at what is coming for Fluid in future releases of PeopleTools.
- Jeff Robbins covered how to take advantage of many of the new Fluid features.
- Dave Bain covered Fluid from a mobile perspective and described how developers can build, customize, and deploy Fluid features.
Life Cycle is another important topic that was addressed in these sessions.

Adapting to the new PeopleSoft Delivery Model
By now, most of you have heard that PeopleSoft change the way maintenance and enhancements are delivered with version 9.2 applications. If you would like to find out more about the process and the life-cycle tools, lots of information can be found on the PeopleSoft Update Manager Home Page on My Oracle Support (Doc ID 1464619.1). You can find details on how to set up the environment, what has changed, hardware and software pre-reqs and much, much more. What is missing, is how the customer can get the most out of the process.
PeopleSoft has published a new white paper called Adapting to PeopleSoft Continuous Delivery. In the paper it describes the benefits of the new life-cycle process and what organizations can do to benefit the most from the change. Of course you can find the document on the PeopleSoft Information Portal, www.peoplesoftinfo.com, or just click on the link above. When you think about how big of a change this is, it's worth a read.
Look for this to be a hot topic at this years Oracle Open World 2014 and beyond.
PeopleTools Simplifies Internet Explorer Certifications
With the GA of PeopleTools 8.54 a couple months ago, customers have been reviewing the certification requirements for PeopleTools 8.54 as they plan their upgrades. A number of questions have come up recently dealing with certified browsers. Just last month, I blogged about the Internet Explorer requirements required to support the new Fluid UI.
We've made a change recently to simplify the Internet Explorer browser environment for PeopleTools. Oracle has moved to model where we will support all of the operating systems that Microsoft supports for a particular release of IE. When the certification details are reviewed on the Certifications tab in MyOracleSupport, we will no longer call out each of the supported operating systems.
Following this change, I've received some additional browser related inquiries. Some customers were hoping that this would mean Windows XP could hang around in their environment a bit longer. A question was raised as to whether or not we would support PeopleSoft running IE 11 on Windows XP. Yes, that's the operating system that was released back on Oct 25, 2001. The very simple answer is a very firm 'NO'. Microsoft's mainstream support for Windows XP ended back in 2009, and extended support ended in of April of this year. Microsoft is even attempting to make it clear that XP is dead. PeopleSoft can't support dead operating systems.
New IE browser releases will continue to require explicit certification testing prior to certification – at least for now. When a new release is certified, it will be certified across all operating systems that Microsoft supports the release with mainstream support.
Do you have a question on browser certifications? For this or other platform certification questions, be sure to attend PeopleTools Roadmap – Platforms (session CON7590) at Openworld on Wednesday, Oct 1, at 12:45 in Moscone West - room 2022. See you there!

Going to Oracle Open World? PeopleSoft Your Primary Interest?
Open World Session--Functional Overview of the PeopleSoft Fluid User Experience: The Home Page
PeopleTools 8.54 is a landmark release for Oracle/PeopleSoft, and you are starting to see a lot of information on it, both in this blog and elsewhere. One of the most important aspects of this release is the new Fluid User Experience. This is a broad-ranging subject, so you will see posts from a functional perspective (this post), a developer's perspective, and announcements about Fluid applications that are being delivered by PeopleSoft.
Perhaps you've heard about how the Fluid user experience provides support for mobile applications. While that is certainly true, Fluid offers much more than that. What the Fluid UX really provides is the ability to access PeopleSoft applications across a variety of form factors from smart phones to tablets to desktops/laptops. Fluid applications present a common user experience on a variety of devices regardless of screen size. These applications are efficient and attractive as well, and offer the kind of user experience the modern work force is expecting. So no matter how your users access PeopleSoft, they will be presented with the same intuitive user experience. This post is the first of a series covering the main features that you will see in Fluid applications when you install them or if you develop some yourself. We'll also cover how to get started with Fluid/PeopleTools 8.54, and how new Fluid application pages will work with your existing applications.
We'll start today with perhaps the most fundamental feature of the Fluid UX: the Home Page. This page provides a base or launch pad for users to navigate to their essential work. Home pages are designed for specific roles, so they contain all the essentials for each role without extraneous menus or content that might distract users. In this way, Fluid Home Pages are conceptually similar to current home pages or dashboards, but Fluid home pages employ the new responsive UI that renders well on different form factors.
Let's look at the main features of the Home page.
The first thing you'll notice about Home Pages is that they contain a variety of Tiles. Tiles can serve as navigation mechanisms, but may also convey dynamic information. Tiles are similar in purpose to pagelets, but are not as interactive. They are responsive, however, and can automatically change size and position to accommodate different form factors.
Now let's take a look at the Home Page header, which contains several useful features. Central is the Home Page drop down menu. This takes the place of tabs, and enables users to move among all the home pages that they use. Users may serve in a variety of roles in an enterprise, and they may therefore have more than one Home Page—one for each role they play. For example, a person may be a manager, but they are also an employee, and as such they have different activities and tasks they perform in both those roles. They would likely have different home pages for those different roles.
Next is the PeopleSoft Search widget. This provides for a search-centric navigation paradigm, and enables users to search from almost anywhere within their PeopleSoft system. In addition, with the new PeopleSoft search, users can search across pillars and retrieve results from all their PeopleSoft content. The search results are even actionable, so users can often complete a task right from the search results page.
Notifications are a handy mechanism that lets users know when there are tasks requiring their attention. The Notifications widget displays the number of items requiring attention. When the user clicks the widget a window displays the sum of all notifications from all applications to which the user has access. The user can act on those items directly from the Notifications window.
Next is the Actions widget. This menu is configurable, but one of the main actions available is Personalizations. This takes the user to a page where they can add or remove tiles from a Home Page, delete Home Pages, or even create new home pages and configure them.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we have the Navigation Bar widget. This opens the Nav Bar, which enables users to get anywhere in their PeopleSoft system. The Nav Bar is flexible configurable, powerful and intuitive.
The Nav Bar is a rich topic in its own right, and will be covered in a separate blog post in the near future. In fact, the Fluid user experience is a large subject, so we'll be posting many more articles describing its features in greater depth. We'll also provide a taste of developing Fluid applications.
If you would like more information on the Fluid UX (and everything PeopleSoft) please see the PeopleSoft Information Portal.
We will also be covering the Fluid UX in great depth in several sessions at Oracle Open World. Come see us at the conference! You'll not only acquire useful information, but you can talk with us personally and see live demos of these features. Here are a few sessions in particular that cover the Fluid UX:
- A Closer Look at the New PeopleSoft Fluid User Experience (CON7567)
- PeopleSoft Mobility Deep Dive: PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface and More (CON7588)
- PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface: A Modern User Experience for PeopleSoft HCM on Any Device (CON7667)
- PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.54: PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface in Action (CON7595)
Developing with Fluid UI – The Fluid Home Page
The first place to start with Fluid UI is with the Fluid Home Page. Sometimes it's referred to as the landing page, but it's formally called the Fluid Home Page. It's delivered with PeopleTools 8.54, and the nice thing about it is, it's a component. That's one thing you'll discover with Fluid UI. Fluid UI is built int PeopleTools with Fluid UI. The Home Page is a component, the tiles or grouplets are group boxes, and the search and prompt pages are just pages. It makes it easy to find things, customize and brand the applications (and of course to see what's going on) when you can open it in AppDesigner.
To see what makes a component fluid, let's start with the Fluid Home Page. It's a component called PT_LANDINGPAGE. You can open it in AppDesigner and see what's unique and different about Fluid UI. If you open the Component Properties dialog, you'll see a new tab called Fluid
On the Component Properties Fluid tab you'll see the most important checkbox of all, Fluid Mode. That is the one flag that will tell PeopleSoft if the component is Fluid (responsive, dynamic layout) or classic (pixel perfect). Now that you know it's a single flag, you know that a component can't be both Fluid UI and Classic at the same time, it's one or the other.
There are some other interesting fields on this page. The Small Form Factor Optimized field tells us whether or not to display this on a small device (think smarphone). Header Toolbar Actions offer standard options that are set at the component level so you have complete control of the components header bar.
You'll notice that the PT_LANDINGPAGE has got some PostBuild PeopleCode. That's to build the grouplets that are used to launch Fluid UI Pages (more about those later). Probably not a good idea to mess with that code!
The next thing to look at is the Page Definition for the PT_LANDINGPAGE component. When you open the page PT_LANDINGPAGE it will look different than anything you've ever seen. You're probably thinking "What's up with all the group boxes"? That is where Fluid UI is so different. In classic PeopleSoft, you put a button, field, group, any control on a page and that's where it shows up, no questions asked. With Fluid UI, everything is positioned relative to something else. That's why there are so many containers (you know them as group boxes). They are UI objects that are used for dynamic positioning.
The Fluid Home Page has some special behavior and special settings. The first is in the Web Profile Configuration settings (Main Menu->PeopleTools->Web Profile->Web Profile Configuration from the main menu). There are two checkboxes that control the behavior of Fluid UI. Disable Fluid Mode and Disable Fluid On Desktop.
Disable Fluid Mode prevents any Fluid UI component from being run from this installation. This is a web profile setting for users that want to run later versions of PeopleTools but only want to run Classic PeopleSoft pages. The second setting, Disable Fluid On Desktop allows the Fluid UI to be run on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, but prevents Fluid UI from running on a desktop computer.
Fluid UI settings are also make in My Personalizations (Main Menu->My Personalizations from the Main Menu), in the General Options section. In that section, each user has the choice to determine the home page for their desktop and for tablets.
Now that you know the Fluid UI landing page is just a component, and the profile and personalization settings, you should be able to launch one. It's pretty easy to add a menu using Structure and Content, just make sure the proper security is set up. You'll have to run a Fluid UI supported browser in order to see it. Latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and IE will do. Check the certification page on MOS for all the details.
When you open the first Fluid Landing Page, there's not much there. Not to worry, we'll get some content on it soon. Take a moment to navigate around and look at some of the header actions that were set up from the component properties. The home button takes you back to the classic system. You won't see any notifications and the personalization doesn't have any content to add. The NavBar icon on the top right has a lot of content, including a Navigator and Classic home. Spend some time looking through what's available.
Stay tuned for more. Next up is adding some content.Normal 0 false false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0in; mso-para-margin-right:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:8.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0in; line-height:107%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;}
PeopleTools 8.54 Upgrade Now Available
PeopleTools 8.54 – New Functionality, New Browser Releases
PeopleTools 8.54 has numerous enhancements to offer, but it does have some browser requirements that go along with it as well. As customers look at the much improved user interface along with other enhancements being delivered in PeopleTools 8.54, they will look to take advantage of the release and plan their upgrade. As they plan, diligent customers will review certifications and notice that PeopleTools 8.54 certifies only newer browser releases. For Internet Explorer, IE 9 is the absolute minimum for the Classic UI, and IE 11 (or higher) is required to take advantage of the new Fluid UI. As they continue to prepare for the upgrade, some may discover that they have older applications that have hard requirements for a less than current IE release. Can you say IE 8? I have come across a couple scenarios already where customers have that one critical application that hasn't been updated in 5+ years and requires the use of IE 8; it can't work with IE9 or above. Another situation I've seen is where a customer isn't scheduled to roll out IE 9 (or above) to their user base prior to their scheduled go live date.
As they evaluate options, some customers facing this situation are able to implement a dual browser environment using Chrome or Firefox for PeopleSoft, and an older IE browser required for antiquated applications. Other customers have begun to ask what PeopleTools functionality might simply not work if they decide to move forward with an uncertified browser environment. Since we test our software with certified browser combinations, we sometimes aren't sure which features might be partially supported by older browsers, and which simply won't work.
The problem is that older versions of Internet Explorer simply did not contain the functionality that current browsers have. While those versions render HTML and CSS content, they often do so in very specific, non-standard fashion. A state of the art application like PeopleSoft relies on rich functionality implemented in the latest versions of the HTML and CSS standards. PeopleSoft utilizes AJAX and the latest accessibility suggestions as outlined in the Web Accessible Initiative – Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite (WAI-ARIA). IE 8 and previous browsers were not designed to support this functionality adequately, and cannot deliver the performance that modern browsers do.
We expect that the following areas would be problematic if using IE 8 or (gulp) something older with the Classic UI. Of course, Fluid UI functionality will not work.
- Layout issues
- Nonfunctional breadcrumbs
- Accessibility problems
- Performance issues
- Problematic charts and graphs
- Mobile Application Platform (MAP)
Note that there are almost certainly other issues that would arise from the use of outdated and uncertified browsers.
As you make plans to roll out the best release of PeopleTools yet, we STRONGLY recommend that you use only certified environment components. We test and certify environments for a reason - so that we can find as many issues as possible, before you do. Should you find a bug we missed, our Support organization stands ready to assist you in obtaining a resolution in your certified environment. We want your roll out to be as smooth as possible - take advantage of our testing and give your users the best experience available.
PeopleTools 8.54: Accessibility
This entry is one of a series of posts that will introduce readers to important features of this landmark release.
PeopleTools has long supported accessibility, and with PeopleTools 8.54 we are able to conform to WCAG 2.0 AA standards. This means that upcoming PeopleSoft applications that are built on PeopleTools 8.54 will be designed to conform to those standards. Customers that build pages, add-on applications, or customizations can also create conforming pages using PeopleTools 8.54. Most enterprises--especially those with a global footprint--are requiring WCAG conformance for the software they use. In fact many companies that operate in the U.S. only are using the WCAG standards as the basis for their requirements.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are part of a series of guidelines published by the W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative. Their goal is to make content accessible, primarily for disabled users but also for all user agents, including highly limited devices, such as mobile phones. The current version (2.0) of the guidelines is also an ISO standard: ISO/IEC 40500:2012. WCAG 2.0 is an international standard used in most countries that enforce accessibility regulations. The new standard provides additional requirements to address new web technologies and has become the standard by which many organizations monitor software compliance. WCAG 2.0 extends standards described in WCAG 1.0 as well as the U.S.-specific regulations described in section 508 of Federal access standards.

♫ Take my hand, take a breath ♫
You offer your hand to him. And he accepted it.
♫ Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine, ♫
You and Ranz go closer to each other.
♫ And let the music be your guide.♫
His right hand is on your waist, your left hand is on his shoulder. And your right fingers are in between of his left fingers. And you start moving.
Your moving one step backwards, and he is stepping one step forward. Then you step forward two times, while he step backward two times. You repeat it but in a circular motion. (Gets niyo ?? Pag hindi, try to watch the video I linked. Isipin niyo na lang na kayo yun at si Ranz. Ok ? :D)
♫ Won't you promise me (now won't you
promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing)
wherever we go next ♫
♫ It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you ♫
You keep on moving. Like twirling, bending with his hand at the back of yours.
♫ It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better ♫
You step one forward and one step backwards while he step one backwards and one step forward then you twirl.
♫ So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)♫
Your moving one step backwards, and he is stepping one step forward. Then you step forward two times, while he step backward two times.
♫ Can I have this dance ♫
Then you bend with his hand in your back.
♫ Take my hand, I'll take the lead ♫
He offer his hand. And you accepted it.
♫ And every turn will be safe with me ♫
He turn you around.
♫ Don't be afraid, afraid to fall ♫
Your hands are around his neck while his hands were on your waist.
♫ You know I'll catch you through it all ♫
Then you bend with his hand on the back of you for the support.
♫ And you can't keep us apart ♫
And you start moving again.
♫ (Even a thousand miles can't keep us apart)
Cause my heart is wherever you are ♫
♫ It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you ♫
Again you keep on moving. Like twirling, bending with his hand at the back of yours.
♫ It's one in a million,

BlackBerry stock spikes on Lenovo buyout mumble
Re: Not happening
We did drop Lenovo as soon as the brand was sold to China. Also, while BB now says they have no way of reading messages passing through their infrastructure I don't think too many people would trust a Chinese company with the data flow.
Secrets of an ad broker: NoSQL, millisecond auctions and FLASH ARRAYS
Re: Wasted talents?
I have no problem with Marketing in general; as some others have noted how do I know a product exists if it is never marketed. I have a big problem with people making money off my activities and stalking me based on past web activity. I don't want Company X being paid by Company Y to shove an ad in my face because at some point in the past I visited or looked for information about Company Z.
I remember when Cable TV first started here in the US (yes, that's how freaking old I am) and one of the big selling points was that sure you had to pay for TV, but there wouldn't be any adverts on it. Yeah, that didn't last long; now we pay for Cable and still have to watch ads.
I fully agree with the original Wasted Talents post: companies should spend more on R&D to improve their products and less on trying to market half-assed products. Marketing may get someone to buy a bad product once; but, an excellent product keeps customers coming back.
Russian ransomware strikes Queensland doctor
I have worked at a hospital system among other diverse industries and the root cause for problems like this is the bottom line. Most would like to do the right thing, as long as it was free. The IT infrastructure and the data on it have become critical to most businesses; but, most businesses still look at IT, and especially security, as a cost to be contained. Horror stories like this are either not read by the decision makers, or they just decide it couldn't happen to them. I currently work at a defense contractor and it is no different. Government rules and regulations are helpful, but every business works to simply be able to check the boxes without really trying to accomplish the purported end goals.
Microsoft concocts cloudy mixture with System Center 2012
Letting users create their own servers? Bad idea.
Although for Microsoft it could be a windfall as every idiot developer would spawn new servers every day leading to a terrible surprise come license true up time. Most developers don't bother using an MSDN license, or they try to use one for a prod server, so letting them set up servers whenever they wanted without control would either break the bank or exhaust all available resources.
Desktop minipoll results – user ignorance is bliss?
Users aren't always the problem
Sure, users can do some very silly things and some times malicious things as well, and they rarely confess to what they do. However, to them a computer is just another tool to do their jobs: accounting, scheduling, reporting, engineering, etc. I have yet to work at a place that bothered to train the user in how to use this tool; they were given a computer and some credentials and set on their own. Training simply is not a priority with businesses. So, even though I agree with the basic results of the survey, that users are the casue of most calls, the root cause is management refusing to train the users in how to use the computers and networks.
Lawyers claim ringtones are public performance
Its the phone companies
AT&T charges their customers for the ringtones so why shouldn't the copyright holder get some benefit? At least they are going after the phone company who sold the ringtone and not the phone users who bought them. it's no different than if AT&T decided to sell CDs without paying royalties.

Hmmmm, yeah, I guess they are equal. Morons; people like Robert Scott and Mark Deal give all Americans a bad name and make me fear for the November elections.

'Legit' website compromises reach epidemic proportions
Missing the point
All the comments about how best to protect your computer such as Linux, Firefox, VMs, etc are all fine and good for tech savvy users. However, the only way the Internet survives as a viable commercial enterprise and keep many of the people who visit this web site employed is by being available to the masses. If only tech savvy users were allowed on the Internet any site depending on traffic volume to survive whether through ads, public funding, or whatever would disappear. Say what you want about M$ they helped make computing accessible to almost everyone in developed countries and as a result you are going to have a wide variety of sophistication amongst users. You don't put the onus for plane safety on the passengers, you put it on the airlines and air plane manufacturers, same with cars and most other consumer products. The Internet is just another consumer product and the people making money on it need to take responsibility for the crap they put up.

Bernard Cornwell, the "master of martial fiction" (Booklist), brings Thomas of Hookton from the popular Grail Quest series into a new adventure in 1356, a thrilling stand-alone novel. On September 19, 1356, a heavily outnumbered English army faced off against the French in the historic Battle of Poitiers. In 1356, Cornwell resurrects this dramatic and bloody struggle--one that would turn out to be the most decisive and improbable victory of the Hundred Years' War, a clash where the underdog English not only the captured the strategic site of Poitiers, but the French King John II as well. In the vein of Cornwell's bestselling Agincourt, 1356 is an action-packed story of danger and conquest, rich with military strategy and remarkable characters--both villainous and heroic--transporting readers to the front lines of war while painting a vivid picture of courage, treachery, and combat.

NEW YORK (AP) Two leading Republicans have begun an unusually personal war of words over foreign policy, highlighting a broader division within the party.
The dispute between Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and Texas Gov. Rick Perry highlights a broader divide within the GOP over international affairs in one of the first public clashes of the Republican Party's 2016 presidential primary process.
Paul on Monday lashed out at Perry's weekend charge that Paul's "isolationist" views are dangerous. Paul takes a swipe at Perry's fashion accessories in an article published in Politico Magazine entitled, "Rick Perry is dead wrong."
He writes that Perry's new eyeglasses "haven't altered his perception of the world, or allowed him to see it any more clearly."
Perry did not immediately respond on Monday.
Both men are considering running for president in 2016.

Welcome back to another episode of The Art of Manliness Podcast. In this week's edition, we talk baseball cards with Dave Jamieson, author of the book Mint Condition: How Baseball Cards Became an American Obsession. If you were a boy growing up in the United States from 1950-1994 you probably owned a few baseball cards. It was a part of the boyhood experience, like catching toads and playing cops and robbers. But at some point this innocent children's hobby turned into a high-powered business filled with million dollar transactions.
Dave and I discuss baseball cards' meteoric rise and catastrophic crash and the future of baseball card collecting in America. Will baseball cards survive? Tune in to find out.

Turn Off Monitor 3
The advantages of being portable
Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn't leave any traces in the Windows Registry.
You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to turn off your monitor on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.
How it works
Turn Off Monitor gives you the possibility to turn off your monitor using a user-defined hotkey. Additionally, you can hide the utility in the system tray with just one click, run the application in the background, and hit the hotkey combination each time you want to turn off the monitor.
The lack of configurable settings can be good news for beginners, as they can learn to master the entire process with minimum effort. During our testing we have noticed that Turn Off Monitor carries out a task quickly. It doesn't eat up a lot of CPU and memory, so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.
Bottom line
To sum things up, Turn Off Monitor proves to be a handy piece of software worth having whenever you need to turn off your monitor using a custom hotkeys, and is suitable for all types of users, regardless of their computer skills.

Oh, for heaven´s sake: Romney has repeatedly denied that he is even considering running for President in 2016. All these articles pro and con on that question are a waste of time.The writer really misses the ball on this one FTA:"There are plenty of Republicans out there who are considering running for president who would be acceptable to the majority of Americans. Most of them are not household names, but what does that matter? Barack Obama was a nobody before the media made him into someone...."What makes Moran suppose that the MSM might be willing to make a Republican nobody into a somebody? Get a clue. The only publicity the MSM ever gives to a Republican presidential candidate is negative publicity.

Excuse me, folks, but we´re being jerked around again.What the heck are we doing, talking about 2016?! We should be laser-focused on 2014. How do we elect the maximum number of pro-America (and, almost by definition, anti-DC) candidates to Congress this Fall should be our main political goal.Obviously, since this promises to be such a good year for Republicans, there are those who would like to distract us from the hard (but necessary) work of clearly defining winning messages. [Why did we let the messages of Brat, Jindal, Cruz, Walker and other clear thinkers get pushed off the front pages of our minds?]Yes, we care about Romney - Yea or Nay; Cruz vs Perry; Senator vs Governor, etc. But all in due time. First things first. Prioritize! 2014.

After four years spent dazzling Blue Devil fans, Jaqawn Raymond will be showcasing his talent on one of the biggest stages in the country.
With the postseason just around the corner, Bulloch Academy is looking to one of its biggest guns to lead the charge toward the state playoffs.
Although she is only a sophomore, Breanna Gates has already left her mark on the Southeast Bulloch record books.
Bulloch Academy pounded out 11 hits Tuesday against Region 4-AAA foe Trinity Christian School but still came up on the short end of the stick.
After a solid regular season, the Metter Tigers set their sights on an appearance in the Georgia High School Association state baseball playoffs this afternoon as they host Johnson County in the Region 3-A playoffs.
It's been a rough season for Statesboro baseball, but the Blue Devils put a silver lining on their year with a 7-6 win over Evans on Friday night at Mill Creek Regional Park in the last game of their Region 2-AAAA schedule.
BROOKLET - The Southeast Bulloch Yellow Jackets continued to roll, defeating Bryan County by a score of 10-2 Thursday night in a non-region matchup.
AUGUSTA - The Screven County Lady Gamecocks (21-2) cruised past Dodge County Thursday at the Fleming Tennis Complex to make it to the Region 3-AA championship, but fell to Bleckley County in the finals to clinch the No. 2 seed in the GHSA Class AA state playoffs.
You always want to do well in your final home event of the season.
BROOKLET - After a pair of recent discouraging losses, it seemed like the state playoff hopes of the Southeast Bulloch girls were fading.
John Milledge Academy pitcher Cody Wood performed well on both sides of the ball, leading the visitors from Milledgeville to an 8-0 victory over Bulloch Academy in GISA Region 4-AAA action Monday at Gator Alley.
AUGUSTA - The Screven County Lady Gamecocks (17-2) earned the No. 1 seed in the Region 3-AA Tournament Monday with wins over Jefferson County and Swainsboro at the Fleming Tennis Complex.

Statesboro isn't headed to the state playoffs, but it ended the 2011 season on a high note as it notched a dominating 6-1 victory over South Effingham Thursday night at Womack Field.
After a recent spurt in region play, Statesboro ventured out of the confines of its normal rivals and suffered a setback, falling to Alexander out of Atlanta by a score of 10-1 Wednesday evening at Mill Creek Regional Park.

BROOKLET - After an 0-4 start to the 2014 season, the Southeast Bulloch Yellow Jackets are now one step away from earning their second consecutive trip to the state Class AAA playoffs.
BRUNSWICK - It seems all too fitting that terror ruled the night on Halloween.
The Portal Panthers started the year with back-to-back wins, but they knew the schedule would get tougher as the year went on.
In 2009, Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States of America and the nation's first African-American commander-in-chief. Pilot Chelsey B. "Sully" Sullenberger successfully crash landed a U.S. Airways jetliner with 155 people on board in the Hudson River.
Struggles at the beginning of the season put Statesboro in an unfamiliar spot.
BROOKLET - Southeast Bulloch has passed the first test, but there is still plenty more work to be done.
SYLVANIA - When Ron Duncan arrived at Screven County prior to the 2012 season, the Gamecocks were in a decade-long rut.
Halfway through the season, the Metter Tigers found themselves with their backs against the wall.
PORTAL - The Portal Panthers celebrated their homecoming two weeks ago, but a few more alums will get an encore performance when Jenkins County comes to town on Friday night.

LEE COUNTY, Fla - For many students, the dream of continuing their education past high school would not be possible if not for financial aid. There are numerous ways students can get the financial help they need to make their college or university dreams a reality.
To help, Lee County Public Schools, with the assistance of Edison College, will be hosting several Financial Aid Nights. The events will be held in the schools' auditorium and will run from7-9 p.m.as follows:
· Thursday, January 19, 2012atLehigh Senior High School Auditorium, 901 Gunnery Road, Lehigh Acres;
· Tuesday, January 24th, 2012atSouth Fort Myers High School Auditorium, 14020 Plantation Rd., Fort Myers.
· Thursday, January 26, 2012atCape Coral High School Auditorium, 2300 Santa Barbara Blvd., Cape Coral;
While the events are scheduled at high schools in all three attendance zones, parents do not have to attend the one in the zone where their child attends school – they can attend whichever event is convenient for them.
Those attending the meetings will learn about the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form and steps they need to take to help their children receive financial aid from post secondary institutions (colleges, community colleges, high tech centers, etc.) Representatives from Edison College will cover the definition of financial aid, how to apply, deadlines, step-by-step instructions for completing the FAFSA, Bright Futures and state aid versus federal aid and more. The financial aid process can be very intimidating and these workshops help demystify the procedure and help parents and students feel more comfortable in going through the steps.
