On Monday, October 27, 2014 at approximately 9:15 am, twelve K-9 units representing several southeastern Massachusetts police agencies conducted a search for illegal drugs at Wareham High School. The search was conducted without incident throughout the school and the parking lot areas with full cooperation of school staff and students.
No illegal drugs were located at Wareham High School during the search, which caused minimal interruption to the school day. The search, which was coordinated by School Resource Officer Karl Baptiste and Principal Scott Palladino, was conducted with no direct interaction between the K-9's, students, or teaching staff.
Police Chief Kevin Walsh stated that although the results of this search in no way means drugs are not an issue in the school system, the results are certainly encouraging, given the fact that in 2011, a K-9 search of Wareham High School resulted in 7 students cited for possession of marijuana and 17 indications of illegal drugs throughout various areas of the school reported by K-9 units. It should be noted that K-9 searches are conducted at least once during the school year in Wareham.
Chief Walsh commended Wareham school officials for their cooperation and proactive efforts to maintain a safe learning atmosphere at Wareham High School, adding that police and school officials being committed to working together to rid our schools of drugs and maintaining a safe environment for students is a common goal.

Re: Confused about IPv6 vs. NAT.
You're confusing NAT with a firewall. IPv6 doesn't need NAT but you can still run a firewall on a gateway/router that drops unsolicited inbound packets. The only thing you miss out on with IPv6 is the absolute joy of configuring port-forwarding.

Re: RFC 4941
While your computer is using privacy extensions it should in addition still maintain a MAC-derived address (at least, it does on Windows - I don't know if the same is true on Linux or OSX). Can you force your SSH client to use this interface rather than the temporary ones?
Re: What IPV6 really needs
I have a 6in4 IPv6 tunnel running on my home network. My router (Asus RT-N66U with Merlin firmware) is running an IPv6 firewall which automatically drops any unsolicited incoming traffic. I can set rules in the firewall to permit traffic to individual hosts (e.g. I could have multiple hosts all with their own port 80 services). All my hosts retain end-to-end IPv6 routing without any of that NAT nonsense.

text: Milbank: If You Oppose Immigration Bill, You're a Segregationist Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 21 May 2013 post a comment Dana Milbank of the Washington Post compared Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) to Jim Crow-era segregationist (Democrat) Alabama governor George Wallace: "Not since George Wallace, perhaps, has an Alabamian taken as passionate a stand for a lost cause as the one Jeff Sessions is taking now." The tactic is familiar Alinskyite stuff, as Milbank singles out Sessions from other conservatives such as Tea Party champion Ted Cruz--no longer, for the moment, the media's target of convenience. It's a highly personal and misleading attack, making much of the fact that Sessions finds himself voting in the minority, which Milbank takes as evidence that he is wrong, casting Sessions's opposition as "petulant." The irony of the false comparison to Wallace is apparently lost on Milbank. Wallace famously stood in the door to defy federal enforcement of the law. Sessions is standing up to demand federal enforcement of the law. In today's America, apparently, that is enough to make you a racist and a segregationist.

The Fisher Cats took a 5-4 lead in the 11th, but Derek Mitchell's two-out, two-strike RBI single tied the game at 5-5.
But Brad Glenn's two-run home run in the 12th proved too much for Reading to overcome.
New Hampshire hit four homers on the day, two by Glenn.
Anthony Hewitt hit his second homer in as many days for the Fightin Phils. Jim Murphy had three hits and an RBI.
Reading (38-54) will open a three-game series with Trenton in Baseballtown Monday night at 7:05pm.
Alex Rodriguez will rehab for the Thunder in the game, and IronPigs All-Star second baseman Cesar Hernandez will play center-field for Reading.

Move over Caggie, see you later Gabriella. Andy Jordan; him of Andy and Louise, him of the majestic nostrils, him of the Andy n' Stevie Bromance has become the third Made In Chelsea-er to embark upon a singing career.
In the show, Andy's currently going through a terrible break-up with Louise, not helped by her ex-boyfriend and love rat Spencer who is totally texting Louise all the time in a bid to make Andy's life difficult. Spencer being Spencer, he's denying the whole thing. Hopefully, Mr. Jordan's singing career should top trumps all the rubbish going on for the poor chap in Made In Chelsea. The song only became downloadable from iTunes on Monday and it's already in the Top 40, so take that Spenny.
The song itself, Whole Lot Of Water, (a thinly veiled reference to Louise's waterworks?) is a fun little beachy tune, totes perfect for those heading off on their gap yah, or for soundtracking a champagne-fulled dip in the hot tub during apres ski. Or, for us normal people, just to put us in an upbeat mood to battle the driving rain and cold dark nights currently besieging our fair shores.
As he's only just recorded the song so there's no official video yet but we did find this sneaky little one from a gig he did recently at XOYO in London. There's not brilliant sound but if you can hear over the excitable sounds of the lovestruck girls in the audience you get the general gist.
You can download Whole Lot Of Water from iTunes.

24 hour mountain bike nationals – data and details
My adventure out west to race 24 hour mountain bike nationals led to a 7th place finish and lots of lessons learned for next year's Race Across America. Here is all my heartrate data and a map annotating the course as well as a general description of the course. The lap times on my heartrate graph do not include time spent resting between laps, so this gives a better picture of how my legs/body were feeling on any given lap than the official lap times which include time spent in the pit between laps. One of the things I was really happy with for this race is that after an hour and a half of sleep, I put in negative splits on my last four laps. In other words, each of my last four laps was faster than the one before. That is very encouraging for RAAM how my body was able to recover and respond after such a short rest.

Annotated topocreator map of the entire course. One of the advantages of the topocreator map over Google terrain view is that it is very easy to pick out the high points on a course like this with all its gentle sloping. Click to enlarge. Or you may also download a high resolution version of this map.
This race was so well-organized by the folks at Zia Rides, and one of the great things about the course was having big red mile markers every mile on the course. This meant that you could break the course up into smaller sections and tackle each section independently – super important for a 24 hour race where you are looking for those boosts of achievement when you are super tired … so reaching the next mile marker meant you were one mile closer to the end of the lap. On the topocreator map above, I have labeled each of the miles in black M1, M2, etc…
We started the race out on the wide dirt road so that we would have a chance to sort out positions before the start of the singletrack. I had been worried all week that we would start in the campground under the finishing banner, which would mean a very short dash of 100 meters or so to the start of the singletrack before the dirt road. This singletrack was a climb through the campground followed by a descent to a bridge with a 90 degree turn entering and exiting the bridge – then more descending down through a cow field before a gentle climb up to the dirt road. When they announced during our pre-race meeting that the start would be on the dirt road, this was a huge relief that I wouldn't be pressured to going really fast through the opening singletrack.
Opening singletrack through the cow field … storm approaching on Friday's ride.
Still, it is tough to get everything organized for a 24 hour race and I didn't hop onto my bike to ride over to the start at 11AM until after 10:30AM. Jake Wade (friend from ultracx racing) and I rode over past the start together and then out to the start of the singletrack and back as warmup. Even though we were back at the start by 10:45, there was already a ton of people lined up. So I started in the third or fourth row thinking that it was going to be tough to make up much ground before the start of the singletrack. Fortunately, I was on the righthand side and there was a 30+mph crosswind blowing from the left. I passed a ton of people and settled into line somewhere in the top 10 before the start of the singletrack.
The opening singletrack dropped down briefly before climbing steeply for about a quarter mile. Then it rolled along the side of a hill eventually making a 90 degree turn to head back down into the valley. But before hitting the valley, the trail went straight up a rock ledge. This was totally rideable as long as you had some momentum. I was worried that if you weren't far enough forward somebody would goof this up and everybody behind would have to walk. I'm not sure if that happened or not because I was far enough forward that everybody could ride it. Dropping off the ledge on the other side was a dip down to a bicycle-specific cattle guard to take you into the long climb to the top of the course.
Collage of pics from my first ride on the course after arriving on Wednesday.
This climb started out very steeply but then rolled a bit before settling into a gradual gradient for several miles. The gradual climb was easy and non-technical except you did have to pick your line carefully to avoid riding over some big rocks. Those rocks were also rideable, but for a 24 hour race you are looking to save every ounce of energy and save your body from as many rock-jolts as possible … so you wanted to ride around those rocks instead of over them. The climb was about half-way over by the time you made it to the cat-tail pond where the junior course split off to the right.
The cattail pond between mile 5 and 6.
After the pond, the course continued to climb through miles 6 and 7. Topping out for the first time shortly after mile 7, there was a gentle fast downhill with lots of sandy turns before a gradual climb up through mile 8. This process repeated itself several times through the rim trail until you finally made it to mile marker 10 which was the high point on the course and the start of a long gradual descent peppered with a short steep climb at mile 11 and a few other small rollers. The climb at mile 11 started out with a short rock slab section followed by a turn straight up a steep hill. I rode it every lap except lap 8 where I was so exhausted I walked the whole section (including the flat parts) just to change up the pace a bit and give my hands a rest from gripping the handlebars.
One of my favorite parts of the course was shortly after this short steep climb – the singletrack continued climbing for a bit before diving back down one more time into a gulley followed by another steep climb on the other side. I figured out in my pre-rides that even with the rocks and roots on the climb, your best bet for this was to fly down the hill and hit the gulley at full speed. You popped up over the rocks and were more than halfway out of the gulley before you even had to pedal. Almost immediately after this, you rode straight towards a property line fence. The singletrack followed the fence very closely for about a mile. Each lap I looked forward to this fence because it meant you had about a mile of easy, smooth, fun riding before the rocky section of the downhill and then the long "berma" section of downhill. I didn't get any pictures of this part of the course in any of my pre-rides because I never wanted to stop to take one.
The first major jump on the downhill section came right before mile 14 (red mileage marker visible in the middle of this picture) and was followed immediately by a 90 degree turn. Early on when you were fresh you had to make sure to keep your speed under control so that you didn't endo on the landing.
The strava segment for this long downhill is called "Berma" presumably because after the jumps you have a number of partially banked turns. The dirt was quite loose so you had to get your line right or risk having your wheel washout. I had a couple close calls during my pre-rides, but by race day had nailed it down pretty good. Once you hit the bottom of Berma, you basically had a 4 mile rolling climb to the finish. The rollers were pretty steep (both up and down) so you got to do a lot of resting on the downhill parts which made the uphill sections more manageable after you had been racing for a long time.
The last mile was some narrow, bumpy singletrack alongside a beautifully paved road. No paved road for the race course, however, with 18 miles of single track and just over a mile of dirt road for a grand total of 19.15 miles per lap. In this picture the righthand side is looking up towards the campground / finishing area and the left side is looking back down the final mile of singletrack alongside the paved road.
That takes you through a single lap of the course. I was fortunate to pre-ride the course four times during the week leading up to the race and then twelve times during the race for a grand total of approximately 325 miles of singletrack — easily surpassing any kind of all-time personal record of number of miles of singletrack ridden in a single week. The course was perfect for a 24 hour mtb race, fast, diverse, safe, fun, and challenging. I'm very sad that USA Cycling is dropping this event off the national championship calendar, but the event was so well run we are definitely going to have to make this a future family vacation sometime in the next few years … maybe even next year!
Birmingham ridges, part ii
My bike at the Cahaba Beach road bridge. You have to hoist your bike over the barricade and carefully ride the planks to make it over to Cahaba Beach road. Watch out for the holes straight through to the river!
A post about climbing the ridges in Birmingham wouldn't be complete without my favorite ridges southeast of town – especially the two high ridges on Double Oak Mountain. I rode out there today armed with my camera and ended up taking more than 50 photos. I picked out the best ones and created a topocreator map to highlight the ridges southeast of Birmingham.
Two screenshots merged to form a complete ride profile (10 mile, 250ft scale). The numbered ridges and creeks are labeled on the topocreator map below.

Birmingham ridges
After three weeks of traveling out west and enjoying some really amazing riding and sightseeing with the family, I have been enjoying a week of riding back in Birmingham. Today's ride typifies the type of ridge riding that you can do here in Birmingham. I started out this ride with a loop on the side of Little Valley Mountain followed by a route crossing all the major ridge lines to Birmingham. Then I turned around and took a different route home recrossing the same ridge lines at different points. After a quick stop at home, I did a loop through Bluff Park bouncing back and forth between the two ridge lines on top of Shades Mountain. That last bit through Bluff Park is shown with ridge and creek crossings highlighted in the first elevation profile and map below:

Lots of climbing stats
Today was quite a combination of rides — hitting a new personal record of shortest distance to 5,000′ of vertical gain on the way into work and then hitting 5,000′ ft again in less than 30 miles on the way home from work. Both rides were pretty slow with lots of weaving on the steep parts and several roller coaster repeats. The best thing about the roller coaster repeats is that they are insanely fast in the 53×11 on the descents and then nearly instantly into the 39×28 — that's a lot of wear and tear on the derailleurs. No wonder I have broken three front and one rear derailleur in the past year and snapped several cables.

Southern Cross Weekend Wrap-up
Panoramic view from a grassy knoll just below the summit of Brasstown Bald – the highest point in Georgia at just under 4800′
Wrapping up a wonderful weekend of riding, racing, and climbing in the beautiful North Georgia mountains outside of Dahlonega that included the Southern Cross Ultracross race, I headed out for one last ride right after the nice breakfast provided by the awesome folks at the Hiker Hostel. My daughter's church choir program was at 5PM back in Birmingham, and I really wanted to be back in time for it – so my original plan of 85 miles and 11-12,000 feet of climbing got scaled back to 65 miles and 9,000 feet of climbing.
Having thrown out my original route plan, I decided on a modified route that included 4 major climbs (Cat 2 or higher) and a few smaller climbs (Cat 3 or lower). I climbed Woody Gap from the R&R ranch and then proceeded backwards on the Six Gap century course climbing over Wolf Pen, then heading out to Jack's Gap and taking the 180 spur all the way to the top of Brasstown, turning around at the top and reversing my course but this time heading up Neel's Gap on US129. The final climb of the day back to the Hiker Hostel had the steepest gradients with a crazy steep driveway access road that climbs up and over a couple mini-ridges before turning into a dirt power-line trail with gradients well over the 30% that ended up getting recorded on my iBike.

A indeed. awesome kids movie. i didnt go see it again, 3D interests me very little. i remember seeing a doco with a cinema that had wall to wall screens plus the roof n floor. they included canisters under the seats that released certain smells at the right moment.... perfume, smoke, whatever...(think at a french tech museum) now why didn't this catch on?
imagine seeing the fish actually swim past you or beneath you, with a lovely sea fragrance about you the whole time!
anyway, for me the thing that made this movie stand was that unmistakable aussie accent n humour as marlin got closer to australia :)
Be the first to comment... hmm, well how about - OMG, stop with the f'n zombies & vampire movies!!!! seriously, what's happened to imagination? Why can no one think of something new?
After that rant I must admit i'm kinda interested in what world war z has to offer, but thats it!!!!! lol
I just saw Dark Knight Rises finally... good movie. But at the end, after being treated to the little teases/hints Marvel movies threw in post credits on their movies, I found myself having to imagine my own little scene.(Batmans eyes opening to a white blurr that slowly fades as his eyes re-adjust... finding himself floating above the harbour, he suddenly looks up to see whats stopping him from falling, an arm with a blue sleeve holding onto his own, his eyes widen... end scene)
I definitely think a superman/batman combo is the way to go. Assuming its success, individual Wonderwoman & Flash movies to follow before the big team up. It would be a mistake to go with any more than four or five members. I don't think you can right off individual movies like the flash as bad ideas... I recall many were skeptical of some of the Marvel ones before they hit too.
perhaps the raptors being a pack animal(like wolves) can be raised from birth to be relativlely tame?
A long shot perhaps... but bare with me. The writers of return of the planet of the apes, the story of a powerful animal given higher intellect. Now they work on JP4. They have raptors with supposedly higher intellect... maybe it'll have some sort of attempted intergration story?
Meh... still can't understand why they're doing another spiderman. The only reason I don't consider further sequels for iron man & thor bad ideas, is because I would hope they'll contribute(at least to some small degree) to another avengers movie. Spiderman is going to fail at the box office imo.
Based on a true story... I'm sorry but that really pisses me off. Why? Because there are plenty of people who are stupid enough to believe it! False advertising
There are some surprises in that top list... alice in wonderland??? proof there is something wrong with the movie going community at large lol. I gotta say, i'm abviously out of touch here. I didn't think much of the dark knight, despite being aussie & loving heaths joker. It was too long & christian bales voice was just laughable(reminded me of the over the top tough acting the kids love to see in wrestling) Anywho, I doubt avengers will be challenged. Perhaps there closest competition may come from somewhere ya'll forgot... the twilight finale? The movie i'm most looking forward to now is Prometheus.
It's a shame though, errors have already been made with regards to a JL movie IMO. Green lantern... shoulda been done better & ryan renolds should have been saved for the flash. Michael Jai White would have been a better choice for the black green lantern. & I don't know that Nolands view of Batman would be compatible with a JL movie??
I'm happy to say I am one of the many who has & will contribute with my second trip to see Avengers last night.(2d this time, just as good!)
But I want to echo those who hope the guys at DC/WB are paying attention, Let's do this already! I want to see something from batman slipped into this next superman movie!!

Found December 12, 2012 on Midwest Sports Fans:
The girls basketball team at Bloomington South High School in Bloomington, Indiana is pretty good. The Panthers are 8-1, the only loss coming on the road to a good Center Grove team. The girls basketball team at Arlington High School in Indianapolis has struggled. The Golden Knights are 0-6 and on a 23-game losing streak, stretching back to last season. They've averaged only 17 points a game this year and have lost two games by more than 50 points. The unbiased observer would expect Bloomington South to beat Arlington without much trouble. But I don't know if anyone expected the Panthers to win 107-2. Arlington didn't score from the field and hit only one free throw in the first half and one in the second. Panthers head coach Larry Winters says that his team wasn't trying to run up the score. But he didn't instruct his players to stop shooting (claiming that doing so would have been embarrassing to Arlington), and, well, the final score was 107-2. Arlington coach Ebony Jackson told...

Atomic Weapons Establishment ditches 2e2 in funding row
Disaster Recovery
I assume AWE are the only ones that are confident in their disaster recovery & contingency plans. I'd guess all the ones in enough of a panic to stump up £40,000 at a days notice were less confident they could continue operations.
Flashy mutant Ultrabooks to shove pure SSD chaps off cliff
So the total £BOM decreases with hybrid, so the percentage of the overall cost of each other component increases as expected ... except atennae which decreases from 2% to 1% when using hybrid.
Chrome beats IE for a weekend
Re: Weird Stat Counting?
Ah! Didn't realise they were live.
Weird how it changes though the day. Be interesting to see them by GMT hour or something.
Weird Stat Counting?
Weird stats. Why does Opera and FF suddenly get binned this weekend in favour of Safari? Seems somewhat unlikely the world turned to Safari over the weekend ...
Google threatens Chrome address bar with death
Might be handy on Netbooks if anyone still uses them ... but I'd rather know what site I was on. A lot of title headings (that presumably would be in the tab) aren't great when shortened.
Surely most people aren't that short of screen space nowerdays?
New Reg comments system ready to launch
You guys after a new Ferrari each or something?
Commenter zapping: All commenter's names will come with a 'zap' button - after this is clicked by three other separate commenters, the offending account will be deleted.
So what your saying is that you pay your £5/12 ... 3 people don't like something you write and you loose your subscription ... ... ... ridiculous if that's how its going to work.
I would assume that for those that do pay there won't be any adverts?
Seems like a license to print money is being requested rather than any service benefits!
Virgin trials P2P deep packet snooping
capture those passwords why don't you ...
* disclaims all comments on the reg since it doesnt use https for comment registration * :)
IE6 exposed as Google China malware unpicked
Google doesn't even use there own browser, and uses Windows OS ... excellent.
FAIL ... as if Google can't even use there own products or go to Linux (as apparetly the geeks think its better) then why should anyone else bother
Ageing Google supersizes its search box
oh dear ...
"Although this is a very simple idea and an even simpler change, we're excited about it"
there excited about that ... surely the best advert never to work for google, ever.
Some script kiddies from uni with new and refreshing ideas are really gonna be flocking there if thats suppost to float their boat ...
64-bit Chrome takes centre stage in Linux land
RE: Is there a need for a 64 bit browser?
32 bit apps run perfectly fine on Vista x64, Win7 x64, Server 2003 x64 and Server 2008 x64.
Not unless your browser is going to need more than 4Gb RAM to run ... which I hope it doesn't.
US appeals court cans CAN-SPAM suit
get a grip
go to court or install a spam filter ... lemmie think whats easier, quicker, and going to stop more spam ...
leave it to the ISPs to sort out if its hogging there bandwidth, a few thousand emails is hardly a problem for an ISP or a spam filter.
or maybe we should clog up the courts with thousands of personal cases of spam rather than those robbing and killing people?
Twitter goes titsup
been tits up as well this afternoon ... for a few hours by my reckoning.
Paris ... just for the tits.
Cray punts smaller baby super
help yourself?
It looks like selling baby supercomputers ... not as easy as Cray had hoped
they dont exactly help themselves since you can't even get a quote as it goes 'your not in the usa piss off'.
well, it actually says 'Pricing shown on this site is for North American customers only' but the translation is the same since were all totally unable to use xe.com.
Adobe spanked for insecure Reader app
Just another example of the IT world presuming it's users have a clue about what to do.
How hard can it be to replace an exe on a downloads page?
Paris ... well, she's got the braincell of 99.9% of end users.
NHS hospitals struggle to hold back the malware tide
But ...
what to do?
It's not feasible to test every AV update that is sent out and not get out of date ... and prone to infection ... or leave auto-update on and have all your pcs felled when some vendor screws up.
Damned if you do and damned if you dont.
Google strips beta wrapper from Gmail, Docs et al
well ...
"We've come to appreciate that the beta tag just doesn't fit for large enterprises that aren't keen to run their business on software that sounds like it's still in the trial phase," said Google's Matthew Glotzbach in a blog post.
no shit.
gotta give that a fail if its taken 5 years for them to realise the bleedin obvious ...
DARPA: Can we have a one-cabinet petaflop supercomputer?
well ...
Any decent-size data centre will in future be more intelligent than its human admin
anyone who's tried to ring a certain German hosting company beginning with a 1 and ending in a 1 will know this is already the case.
AT&T squeezes wannabe iPhone upgraders
You've got an un-needed W
"... the petition had over 1,700 signatures (Twitnatures?)."
it's hardly rocket science that an upgrade would be coming before your contract was up. Happens with every phone in every country.
You pays ya money you makes ya choice.
HDD data density to hit 2.4Tb/in² 'by 2014'
@ frank
"If they are using 2 SSDs striped, that would be for access speed. Striping is for speed, mirroring is for data recovery." ... yeah I know ... it was more the technology exists to hide it (which I hadn't seen in action before). Personally I suspect it was to keep the price down and use smaller SSDs for the same capacty tbh ... not seen it mentioned anywhere in their literature and not before I bought it either (not that im complaining its there tho).
not sure how there gonna backup 15TB though ... new usb speeds and the like maybe ... but even so ... a 15TB backup would make most give up I suspect.
poor home users
who will end up being sold 1 disk for the rest of their life ... which then fails loosing the world + dog.
pc makers had better be kind and develop hidden raid mirroring on standard pcs (no end user will be any use at configuring raid) ...
the tech exists to do it .. my new sony Z3 has hidden raid (it actually uses 2 SSDs striped on an intel controler to give the storage capacity, but hides the raid stuff from the OS and even the bios boot sequence unless you go tinkering).
Xandros - the Linux company that isn't
Finally ...
"Doing that general purpose operating system is a nightmare, and you lose your shirt on it,"
someone in Linux land admits why Windows sells so well apart from all the usual monopoly crap they come out with - even if they don't realise they just did.
eBay not obliged to protect trade marks, says High Court
erm ...
"I am satisfied that mere knowledge on the part of the supplier of equipment that it would probably be used to infringe someone's copyright does not make the supply unlawful; nor does an intention to supply the market for such user."
erm ... napster ... et. al.
Getting real about Linux on the desktop
You havin' a laugh?
"consider the value of creating a mixed estate of Windows, Linux and possibly even Mac"
you havin' a laugh ... or do you just like spending all month delivering patches and updates?
Most apps don't run on linux (without some sort of emulation / wine affiar) ... so for the sake of £90 .. I'll spend the cash rather than have all the wasted man hours with hundreds of patches, user training sessions, new standard builds, admin security courses, test environments (as the mac is so good at updates not breaking things) etc. etc. ... ... ...
If they can break the law, why can't we?
Lying Cheating Bastards
"Claims that most workers would be sacked at once for bending the rules in the way that MP's appear to have are likely misplaced, and if the public reflected more quietly on the issues, it is probable they would not wish their own employers to pursue such a draconian policy either"
If I'd just made up a claim for a new laptop (substitute for mortgage) that didn't exist and pocketed the cash thank you very much and then go, 'oh, sorry, didn't realise that laptop I made up didn't exist' ... then yes, I would expect to be instantly dismissed.
It's a matter of scale, these lying cheating bastards have been thieving more than a lot of people earn in a year. It's not as though they've just taken a few hundred by accident (when you would just expect a telling off).
Google: Let us keep search data or die
So what?
All this keeping data stuff ...
a) If you don't want them to keep it then use a different search engine or create your own. Noone forces anyone to use google.
b) It would be quite simple for all data capture people to anonymise data to e.g. city level based on geoip if they wanted to.
'b' won't happen as it hurts their business, and why should it? There a commercial company, just because there better at it than anyone else doesn't mean they should be punnished (same goes for MS, Intel, etc etc).
So, you don't like it? Go do something about it. Just tap in ask.com, yahoo.com or whatever; or go create your own search engine thats better, dont keep the data.
As for us all being dead if they don't keep the data, thats just to confuse the issue, the real issue is wether people should be punnised for creating a better service / product than anyone else.

Will Oracle kill MySQL? Who cares?
Why not just use XE? MySQL is pitty much legacy for existing sites ever since Oracle gave us XE for free.
All Oracle need to do is raise the XE limit from 2GB storage and job done. It's Oracle mini, which is all MySQL is. You can't store massive amounts of data in MySQL, and with decent table spec (such as using the right data types and lengths for example), its amazing how much you can actually cram into 2GB. Short of space? Just create another copy of XE in VMWare shell and get yourself some clustering experiance (the hard way as it's the only Oracle feature not in XE that I've come accross, so you need to think a bit more - no bad thing).
Give it a bit more storage in 11 XE and then we can all use that and truely kill MySQL, learn some Oracle skillz and migrate any apps we do to full scale corporate at some point with no worries about chaning quieries.
XE is the Oracle version of a community server (i.e. free for whatever), and has a lot more features.
Just because it's not open source, doesn't mean it's not better and provides an easier expansion to corporate land as well as giving the new developers some good Oracle experiance.
Oracle killed MySQL long before they bought it, they killed it as soon as they released XE.

ever heard of remote desktop?
I'm sure they could setup a remote desktop that would give them access to whatever terminals they need from a couple of servers ...
Privacy watchdog barks for federal Gmail probe
The cloud ... safe ... you having a laugh?
The Google Cloud - Is it safe?
Nothing is secure ... security is merely the fact that a bug hasn't been found yet in the wekest link in the chain.
The complexities of anything useful mean that everything will be vulnerable ... there just not all found ... Google docs ... Adobe Flash as recent examples.
Sticking stuff into a cloud can never be secure.
Is it more secure than storing it at home? Possibly.
Security should be defined along the lines of ... 'data is unavailable to unauthorised users based upon the highest technically abilities of the best technical user with access to that system or any link in getting to the end system'.
This obviously dictates that the bar for online data being secure is greater than one at home or in a general office / corporation.
It's worth remembering that, for example, with the DNS hijacking of recent times, it's not necessarily the respective cloud that may be the problem; it could equally be the router you go though to get there, over which 99% of users have no control.
How long before someone presses the wrong button or a disgrunteled employee presses the 'sitck into search engine results' button?
The cloud ... safe ... you having a laugh?
Mozilla hangs fire on Firefox 3.5 till June
Who cares?
In the grand scheme of things, who cars about a browser?
Some are marginally faster at a/b/c, but the same one slower at x/y/z. They'll all have some security bugs, so you're going to have to keep checking for updates to them all (and frankly, who cares if it gets upgraded once, twice or 50 times a year - they all do it automatically).
The only people this matters too are the ones making the browsers, the rest of us install whatever pedastole we want to stand on (wether its an Opera one, a Mozilla one or a MS one) but at the end of the day; we all have to update, patch and upgrade regardless of whatever path we pick.
As for speed ... it makes no difference. In the real world, websites dont use 9000 JScripts or whatever, so a marginal saving (in time terms) is meaningless anyway.
You get a site that loads in 10 sec on one browser and 5 on another, its doomed anyway; as there will always be a split between browsers - so you immediately alinate whatever % are using that browser. By the time sites are upgraded to what is the latest and greatest website toy, the browsers will be capable anyway.
The web runs on the lowest common denominator of the major browsers, not whichever is the fastest. So if your interested in saving 0.25sec of your life, the browser speed choice is relevent. For the rest of the human race its about wether you want to customise it, disable scripts or whatever your personal quirk is.
So, what's the f**king difference between a Netbook and an ultrathin?
Why can't I get a date?
This is just the sort of shit we need on beer night.
/me goes to print out diagram for all the birds in the local.
Think that answers the "Why can't I get a date?" part of the useful stuff to know on a Friday night article.
Cocaine now cheaper than lager
Can't imagine which of the two the government can't tax.
Did Parallels ship pre-release version 4 code?
Not surprising?
It's hardly surprising that a boxed version is older than a web delivery version ... burn the CD, make the box, ship it somewhere, ship it somewhere else ... or just upload a new exe to a website for instant delivery ... and in any case ... who buys anything in a box in 2008? and who's not connected to the internet for an auto-update thats going to be using this?
If your daft enough to buy a boxed version of something, you're going to have to update it ... when was the last time you got a copy of XP / Vista or Office with all the latest patches on it? erm ... sometime never I guess ...
As long as there not charging for updates / patches ... who cares.
Google Analytics — Yes, it is a security risk
Offsite scripts in general
Whilst this isn't a security forum ... now the topic is aired ... it would be good (and benificial to noobs like me) ... to perhaps run a story on offsite scripts in general?
From my perspective ... maybe a little defensive ... any script called from a domain you don't control seems careless at the least ... never mind on an admin page ... but what is the risk?
Millions use analytics ... so is everyone at risk from a roge JS at the Googleplex? ... or just those running that script on admin pages? ... presumably everyone, and a malicious script could do what it likes with your server ... at least as far as whatever process the webserver runs in is allowed (e.g. IUSR on Windows world) ... is that true? ... for example replacing urchin.js with one to load content from a rogue server thats neither Googleplex or yours to infect pcs? ... or is it limited to (for example) session data?
This raises more questions about the use of any external scripts / content you don't host than the fact it's some specific website.
A followup noobs guide to the risks ... now the topic is aired ... would be welcome.
Keep up the good work fokes! :)

Home Cooking: Hailey turns family experiences into a love for cooking
As a child, Gloria Hailey spent a lot of time in the family kitchen, watching and helping when possible to create meals and dishes she learned along the way.
Today, Hailey uses her love for cooking to create dishes for her guests at The Columns Bed & Breakfast, which she runs, along with her husband Charles. And, she attributes that passion to her years of sharing time in the kitchen with the women in her life.
"I can't ever remember not cooking with my mother," said Hailey. "She always loved to be in the kitchen.

Chewy farro and white beans marry well with chicory salad; tender ravioli are filled with curried lamb and raisins. Owner Sebastiano Cappitta (Acqua, Isola) is blazing a successful trail through the Upper West Side, but some carelessness marred a recent meal, such as a skimpy portion of shrimp with pappardelle (four shrimp, four noodles) and a fish stew that had a whiff of iodine. But if sitting outdoors with a refreshing coffee granita on a patch of fenced-in sidewalk doesn"t exactly transport you to Italy, it does feel mighty neighborly.

Levis JCC in Boca Raton to Present Exhibition by Acclaimed Artist Deborah Bigeleisen - Opening March
Sep. 24, 2014
BOCA RATON, Fla.
Levis JCC in Boca Raton to Present
Paintings by Deborah Bigeleisen
Exhibition Tracing the Evolution of an Artist's Vision Runs March 8 through April 30
in the Nathan D. Rosen Museum Gallery at the Phyllis & Harvey Sandler Center
(Boca Raton, FL September 22, 2014) The Adolph and Rose Levis JCC's Nathan D. Rosen Museum Gallery will exhibit the paintings of internationally renowned painter Deborah Bigeleisen from March 8 through April 30, 2015. The gallery is located at the Levis JCC's Phyllis & Harvey Sandler Center for Jewish Life Enhancement at 21050 95th Avenue S. in Boca Raton.
The title of the exhibition is MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES:
the Evolution of an Artists Vision which traces the path of the artists focus from creating Rembrandt-like portraits of white roses to her more evocative contemporary views that are an abstracted fractal of the original floral form although still suggestive of its organic roots. Though her paintings have been mentioned alongside Georgia OKeefe, Bigeleisen brings a unique and distinctive 21st Century perspective to the floral genre.
"It was my research in Chaos Theory and my fascination with the mathematical principles of fractals, which are a component of Chaos Theory, that truly transformed my vision, not only of my subject, but also how I look at the world around me, says Ms. Bigeleisen. The more abstracted paintings may be viewed from multiple orientations;
and with each rotation, the painting assumes a very different dynamic.
FACTOID: Deborah Bigeleisen often signs her paintings on the side and not on the front so that they can be hung in whatever direction suits the collectors eye.
"The common thread that weaves through all my work is my technique which is rooted in the practices of the Dutch master painters, says Ms. Bigeleisen. Working exclusively in oils and with various mediums, I apply upwards of 20 glazing layers, which enables me to achieve astonishing depth in the shadows and incredible luminosity in the highlights, while maintaining a completely smooth surface. With the non-representational work, my paintings have a totally new choreography and energy. Light is my subject now, and I use strong contrast and subtle tonal shifts to mold the forms and to seduce the viewer's eye in to the myriad of complexities within the structure.
"I am thrilled to be partnering with the Rosen Museum Gallery at the Sandler Center for this exhibition. Because of the Jewish Community Center's fine reputation and extensive reach, this is an ideal opportunity to connect with a very broad and diverse audience, including children whose exposure to fine art may be minimal, she adds. With both the exhibition and my opening day presentation on The Evolution of an Artist's Vision, Id like to initiate a dialogue that is not only about looking at art with a new curiosity, but also about looking at the world around us with a fresh perspective.
"My goal is to invite adults and children to open their minds and their imagination, to see beyond the obvious. In this 24/7, always connected, highly stressed, technology driven universe where changes are occurring at warp speed yes, I'm of the Star Trek generation most of us don't take the time to 'stop and smell the roses,' let alone even notice them.
Bigeleisen hopes the MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES exhibition will encourage everyone to take a pause from their every day routine, to shift the conversation from technology to creativity, and to discover the richness of art not only in our own backyard, but where ever we go.
In addition to the free Artists Talk on March 8, Ms. Bigeleisen will also present a talk on The Art of Buying Art on March 25 at 7:30 p.m. The cost to attend is $10 for JCC members and $15 for non-members.
About Deborah Bigeleisen:
Flowers and nature have been the inspiration for Deborah Bigeleisens artistic expression since childhood, and are the common thread that weave through both her careers: first as a textile print designer and founder of her own global design company in NYC, and later as a fine artist which she began in 1998 upon moving to West Palm Beach, FL. In the early years of her painting career she was mentored by acclaimed technical master Sam Perry and guided by renowned visionary Gordon Parks. She also completed rigorous training through Master Artist Workshops.
From early on, Ms. Bigeleisens work gained the attention of fine art dealers across the U.S. from San Francisco and Austin to New York City and Southampton. Her paintings are collected world-wide both privately and publicly, enhancing the corporate collections of American Airlines, Beauté Therapies Inc., and LBC Design & Construction and more. Her paintings have been accepted into numerous museum exhibitions including the Society of the Four Arts, the Boca Raton Museum of Art, and the Williamsburg [Brooklyn, NY] Historical Center; have received awards in international competitions;

Immunocore and Lilly strike a risk-sharing deal in oncology R&D
Immunocore has struck another cancer R&D pact with one of the world's top drugmakers, signing a deal with Eli Lilly that'll both bring in short-term revenue and help the biotech build value in its proprietary pipeline.
Roche partners with Roche on 'breakthrough' PD-L1 cancer program
Today, Roche put out the word that their PD-L1 drug MPDL3280A won the FDA's coveted breakthrough therapy designation, potentially putting it on an inside track at the agency, which has been hurrying along new medicines in the pipeline.
AstraZeneca signs up for MD Anderson's 'moon-shot' immuno-oncology project
MD Anderson's popular "moon-shot" immuno-oncology research project has won over another big industry player looking to play catch-up in the hottest race in cancer drug R&D. AstraZeneca's biologics arm, MedImmune, has become the latest Big Pharma player to join a team that has already attracted Pfizer and J&J.

What should we make of the heavy, some would say unhealthy, concentration of drug R&D in certain hot categories like oncology and inflammation?
Merck loops Pfizer, Amgen and Incyte in on MK-3475 immunotherapy deal spree
At Merck, the already giant-sized hope that its cancer immunotherapy program for the PD-1 drug MK-3475 represents just swelled significantly in importance. Just ahead of its 2013 earnings report Wednesday, the pharma giant announced plans to tie up with a trio of major league biopharma partners to launch a whole new slate of combination studies that could significantly extend its reach in the oncology market.
Novartis advances rival CDK 4/6 cancer drug to Pfizer's palbociclib
One of Pfizer's top late-stage prospects is its cancer drug palbociclib, an oral inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6 that the FDA put in its first group of therapies awarded their "breakthrough" drug designation. But Pfizer is not the only Big Pharma company to view the CDK 4/6 pathway as a likely goldmine in oncology. Novartis has now started a slate of Phase I studies of LEE011, which its researchers are touting as a best-in-class contender.
Bayer hits the R&D accelerator on late-stage contenders in cancer, cardio

Roche's new round of lung cancer data keeps spotlight on immunotherapies
Researchers have posted early-stage data demonstrating that Roche's PD-L1 drug MPDL3280A--which takes the blinders off the immune system to spur an attack on cancer--scored a hopeful 26% response rate among a small group of non-small cell lung cancer patients who smoked.
Merck laterals cancer drug to hungry AstraZeneca, focuses on star programs
In the deal AstraZeneca is paying Merck $50 million upfront and a slate of undisclosed milestones to bring in MK-1775, a WEE1 inhibitor that Merck took up because of its potential to spur repeated cell division, offering a new way to destroy cancer cells.
