Texas A&M almost assuredly is headed to the Southeastern Conference. It appears almost impossible that Baylor's threat of a lawsuit will prevent it. Be it within the next hour or the next 18 months, change is coming.
Texas A&M leaving the Big 12 will start the move toward the 14- and 16-team megaconferences that will dominate the college football landscape.
Here's one spit-ball projection as to how it could shake out:
The SEC
SEC East: Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech and West Virginia
SEC West: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Missouri and Texas A&M
Current 12 teams and add Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas and BYU
Big TEN
Current 12 teams and add Kansas, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh and Louisville
Current 11 teams (with Virginia Tech heading to the SEC) and add Connecticut, South Florida and Central Florida with possible spots for two more.
Everyone else will be jumbled into an NCAA field for football, not unlike the NCAA tournament, although it will feel more like the NIT. Remember that Georgia, Florida and South Carolina reportedly have a wink-wink, nod-nod deal in which none of those three will vote for inviting another school from those three states. So no Georgia Tech, no Clemson, no FSU, and that may very well save the ACC.
The overhaul is coming, gang, and the biggest question remaining may be whether the other schools have the strength and the wherewithal to force Notre Dame and Texas to join the fold so they can broker the TV rights deals together. Because expansion is not about competition or classification as much as it's about market shares and money.
In a perfect world, the conferences could stay where they currently are and look to tweak the BCS system. But all the hand-wringing and calls for playoffs jump-started the conferences to be aggressive and perform the sports version of the California Gold Rush of 1849.
If the TV contracts are deal-breakers for Texas and Notre Dame, then maybe they stay independent. But if they stay independent, do the future four power conferences allow them a special entry into the title games and the BCS billions? More than likely not, and if Notre Dame is playing football with no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow (see what we did there?), how much is NBC willing to spend?
And if you're wondering why the NCAA has been quiet about this, maybe it is planning security measures for next week's football game between Miami and Ohio State -- two programs that have prominent spots on the NCAA speed dial.
As for next week's Da U/THE Ohio State Penitentiary, here's saying the NCAA buys two luxury boxes and has its quarterly meeting there. It would be cheaper than bringing all of the field officers down around South Beach back to the ranch in Indy.
Jay was named the Sports Editor of the Times Free Press in 2003 and started with the newspaper in May 2002 as the Deputy Sports Editor. He was born and raised in Smyrna, Ga., and graduated from Auburn University before starting his newspaper career in 1997 with the Newnan (Ga.) Times Herald. Stops in Clayton and Henry counties in Georgia and two years as the Sports Editor of the Marietta (Ga.) Daily Journal preceded Jay's ...
War Eagle, Jay. I think I'd like to see Auburn on the East, because that would protect the uga rivalry and bring back old ones with florida and utk. We'd have to keep alabama as the traditional west appointment. I guess I'd hate to lose MSU as a historical opponent and LSU as a heck of a recent rival, though. I wouldn't want to see west virginia in the SEC.
One thing is, west va. would be dumb to leave the big east and go to the sec. They have a good thing going in the big east. It wouuld be dumb for va. tech to leave the acc, too.
I'm sure the big 10 would love notre dame, but they haven't been able to get them so far. And NBC has been willing to keep paying so far. I'm not sure it would change. I'm not so sure that Louisville fits the big 10 academically. Pitt would, and would be nice for the rivalry with penn state.
I think columubia mo is a great college town, but not sure missouri fits in with sec. Might be a better fit with big 10. I guess I could see Kansas in big 10. Where is K-state?
Baylor and Iowa st. are the flys in the ointment, because if the big 12 goes down, they are left hanging with no prom date.

CTE Holds Promise for At-risk Youth, Report Finds
Career pathways education and apprenticeships leading to jobs in health care and construction hold promise for at-risk youth, according to a report from Mathematica Policy Research.
In Connecting At-risk Youth to Promising Occupations, Bradley, Lansing and
Stagner look at occupations that would help vulnerable young people—those who
have dropped out of school, are homeless or are juvenile offenders, for
instance—to achieve self-sufficiency, defined as jobs that:
They concluded that two industries fit the bill: health care and construction. In health care, specific occupations that meet the criteria include licensed practical/vocational nurses, dental assistants, dental hygienists and diagnostic medical sonographers. All of these positions typically require a certificate or associate degree. In construction, the researchers focused on jobs that require apprenticeship, including boilermakers, brickmasons, carpenters, electricians, plumbers and steel workers, as well as jobs that require some on-the-job training, such as cement masons, drywall installers and insulation workers.
The report goes on to praise career pathways programs and specific education and workforce initiatives such as I-BEST, which integrates CTE with basic skills, and YouthBuild and Year Up programs.

It's the Lions versus the Lions this week as local lads the Xerox Golden Lions take on the touring British and Irish Lions.
BOTH the Johannesburg metro police department and the emergency management services will be out in force on Wednesday evening for the big rugby match at Coca-Cola Park Stadium in Ellis Park.
The British and Irish Lions will play against the provincial Xerox Golden Lions as part of the Castle South Africa Lions Series. The game kicks off at 7.10pm.
According to the City's emergency management services spokesperson, Percy Morokane, both fire safety and disaster management officers will be in attendance at the stadium. The two fire stations which are in close proximity to the stadium – Johannesburg Central and Berea - will be on stand-by for any emergencies.
"We shall be closely monitoring the situation," he says.
There will be no park and ride facilities for this event, on 3 June. Parking will be available around the precinct and at the stadium's new five-level car park, which can accommodate 1 200 cars.
Roads around the immediate perimeter of the stadium will be closed off, as is the norm with all rugby matches, according to Metro Police spokesperson Wayne Minnaar.
Plenty of tickets are still available, with the 62 000-seat stadium only half-full at the moment, confirms Ricky Meyer, the stadium's marketing manager. Stadium gates will open for the game at 3pm, so people can arrive early to get to their seats.
Fans without parking tickets for inside the stadium will have to park in the Greater Doornfontein area, although there is still some parking available at Johannesburg Stadium. Tickets for this parking facility can be bought at the Ellis Park ticket office.
Although no curtain-raiser is scheduled, entertainment will kick off at 6pm with traditional dancing by Umoja. A number of artists will also perform, among them Idols finalists Daniel Baron and Lize Heerman.
Team members from the 1968 Transvaal provincial team - the only provincial team to beat a British Lions touring team ever - will also be parading before the game kicks off.
And in between, there will be competitions and giveaways, Meyer says.
As before, people are advised not to bring any glass bottles or containers into the stadium as these will be confiscated at the gates. The beer garden and food kiosks will be operating as normal.
Tickets cost R230 and can be bought from Computicket, on 083 915 8000 or 011 340 8000, or through the Computicket website or at the Coca-Cola Park ticket offices.

Enchong Dee and Sebastian Castro Hot Photos— October 1, 2013
WHILE OTHERS are busy with the part two of Chito Miranda and Neri Naig Scandal, let us temporarily do a breather. Yeah, let this post just be a simple breather — though 'breather' could also mean 'breathtaking' as what came to our mind are these two hottest hunks of today: Young Actor Enchong Dee and Hot Gay Guy Sebastian Castro.
Enchong and Sebastian are two hot guys that have become popular on their own merits — so they deserve your attention, folks. And this post was specifically made for them.
Enchong Dee was an athlete, a great swimmer at that, before the Filipinos demanded more of him on television. He is currently one of the most bankable actors in the Kapamilya network, ABS-CBN. His TV series, "Muling Buksan Ang Puso" is one of the most watched show on TV today, if not the most watched. With an improving acting, an awesome charisma, and a mysterious self behind the camera, no question that he has a long way to go in the showbiz industry. Though Dee has already made a name, a household name at that, he definitely has more to offer to his followers and the would-be TV viewers. With his gender remained being questioned, Enchong has kept mum on the issue and I think he will remain quiet about it, 'kahit magkabasagan pa ng itlog' as they say. Whether you would believe the rumors or not, he is leaving it up to you. For us, we don't care. Enchong is still loved in this side of the planet.
Sebastian Castro on the other hand is that handsome Peruvian model who made a buzz after he came out as GAY in February. Now in his early 20′s, Sebastian has become a very relevant gay personality in showbiz afterwards — making waves in the industry in his own ways. He has become one of the new faces campaigning against HIV/AIDS. More than that, he has staged a great exhibit of his art works before he flew to the US earlier this year. In our recent chit chat with Seb (as his friends call him), he is about to release an album and is hoping to star in an Indie Film to be directed by an award-winning director soon.
Why are they here now? You ask. There are a lot of reasons actually, reasons that you might know already. But before we even say more, isn't their being 'hot' enough for this space? And if we are to rank the hottest men in the Philippines today, Enchong and Seb will tie for the third spot, following Enrique Gil on the second spot and Alex Castro, my ultimate favorite, on the top spot. But let us talk about Quen and Alex on the next posts. For now, let us show you hot photos of Seb and Enchong that would make you agree with me when I say they deserve the D-R-O-O-L.
Photos are not mine. Got them from Sebastian Castro and Enchong Dee's fan pages.
UPDATE: Have you heard about the Enchong Dee and Sebastian Castro Scandal rumor? Seb actually denied it. Hmmmnn… Check out this post.

Updated: July 8, 2011 2:48PM
With fill 'er up meaning empty your wallet, home prices sliding, job creation and manufacturing remaining weak, and politicians of all stripes calling for a policy for energy security, Democrats have declared war on . . . America's big oil companies.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Saudi King Abdullah and Venezuelan boss Hugo Chavez must be rolling in the aisles in laughter. They are the world's real oil robber barons — the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russia account for more than 80 percent of the world's oil reserves.
The Democrats are right that we can't drill our way to energy security. But American oil and gas must be part of the answer, and demonizing America's big oil companies and singling them out for special tax penalties is not helpful to building a national consensus on energy policy.
The latest bit of political grandstanding came at a recent Senate hearing where executives of the five top U.S. oil companies were called on the carpet for high gas prices and big profits — while the politicians overlooked the big taxes Big Oil pays. Democratic senators called, as has President Barack Obama, for ending "$4 billion in taxpayer subsidies" for the oil giants.
The executives responded reasonably that Congress should end tax breaks for all companies rather than singling out oil. But corporate tax reform with lower rates and no tax breaks would deprive politicians of the power to try to pick winners in the economy and to punish businesses they don't like, such as the domestic oil industry.
The most revealing exchange came when Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W. Va.) the great-grandson of the founder of Standard Oil Company, a predecessor of Exxon Mobil, called oil executives "deeply and profoundly out of touch, and deeply and profoundly committed to sharing nothing." Chevron Chief Executive John Watson took that one and hit it out of the park: "I don't think the American people want shared sacrifice. I think they want shared prosperity."
It's Democrats who are out of touch. In being reflexively anti-business, they are anti-prosperity. Their hostility to expanding exploitation of U.S. fossil fuel resources deprives American workers of jobs at a time they need them most and robs the country of one path toward prosperity at a time when American families desperately want a growing economy.
The perversity of the Democrats' position was underscored in March when Obama traveled to Brazil to encourage its offshore oil production so America could be Brazil's customer, even as his administration blocked new U.S. offshore drilling. He has since had to retreat from his drilling ban.
"We've got to get a coherent energy policy that emphasizes production at home, alternative fuels, energy efficiency," declared White House Chief Economist Austan Goolsbee last month. OK, what's stopping you? Obama's presidency is in its third year. Instead of focusing on energy and jobs, the White House unleashed a tsunami of red ink in ineffective "stimulus" spending, imposed byzantine regulation on business and muscled through a partisan health-care law placing new burdens on job creators.
Goolsbee might take a look at Australia. It is exploiting its mineral resources such as coal to feed China and other growing Asian economies. The mining boom has inspired predictions of Australia's unemployment dropping to 4.5 percent and a budget surplus in 2013.
America is not resource poor. Sure, some of its resources are hard to get to, but not impossible. For instance, new technology could open oil shale fields from Texas to Ohio that, by one account, have the potential to increase U.S. petroleum production by 25 percent in 10 years and create 2 million jobs.
Yes, we need to develop alternative energy. But the White House also should be committed to creating oil jobs, and not just in Brazil.

Social networking sites are famous for being overrun by people who take photos of everything from snapshots of their toy-Pomeranian to multiple-angle action shots of their breakfast cereal. Considering these photos are obviously so well loved they deserve to be shown to the entire world, why stop at putting them online; why not make puzzles and coffee mugs for gifts at the next birthday or staff party and save 50% on 100 high-quality Kodak jumbo gloss-prints and on various photo gifting products at Kodak Express Frequentfoto.
Saying digital cameras have made it easy for people to create photo albums is like saying technology has made it easy to climb Mount Everest. Sure, taking the photos is easy as repeatedly clicking a button but printing them out is a totally different story; that's probably why social networking sites and harddrives are littered with photos and empty photo-frames litter sad mantelpieces everywhere. With one hundred jumbo prints from Kodak, you could fill all your photo frames and still have extras to plaster the wall with.
Creating a feature-wall with nothing but a hundred pictures of your muesli is one way to go, but another versatile use for photographs is using your muesli as a mouse-pad. Use any photo you want for the foamy placemat which also doubles as a conversation piece; if you printed a picture of Mars on it and used it as a coaster for your water-glass, you could tell all your friends you've found water on Mars.
If your mouse-pads usually end in some box somewhere in the attic, perhaps plastering your snoochypoo's face on your morning-coffee mug is more your speed. Granted, it doesn't have to a photo of your significant other; last year's Christmas tree, a horse with a toilet-roll strapped to his head and a name-tag that says UNICORN or your mom's high school-yearbook photo are all valid mug additions. Whatever mug you grace your mug with, it's the easiest way to keep fond memories warm and close at hand.
Stepping out of the conventional box, if you want something truly unique to do with your photos that doesn't include strapping them to a bouncy-ball with rubber bands, you could always create an A4 size 150-piece puzzle. Offering hours of rainy-day entertainment since grandpa was still in diapers, puzzles are just as well-loved as most photos and combining the two is the photographic equivalent of strawberries and chocolate or milk and cookies. Whether you stick on the coffee-table or give it as a gift, your memories will be able to provide hours of enjoyment.
While making your photos versatile is great, sometimes you just want to make them bigger and more like something you'd see on reality TV shows of really expensive houses. The A3 canvas print is the perfect way to do that. Printed on thick, damage resistant canvas, your photos will not only last much longer, they'll be the memory-filled equivalent high-quality gallery art.
Whether you're looking for a new sort of gift or you just want to add some pizazz to your photos, Kodak Express Frequentfoto is the perfect way to do it.
Photographic Evidence: The real reason that Dorothy left Kansas was because, during breakfast one morning, someone snapped a photo of her with bacon stuck between her teeth and created an entire gift-store worth of merchandise with it.

Vikings Sign 3 Undrafted Rookie Free AgentsPosted by on May 4, 2010 – 3:39 pm
After signing a pair of undrafted rookie free agents on Monday, the Vikings moved again on Tuesday to sign 3 more. All 3 players have Minnesota ties.
Former University of Minnesota Golden Gophers Cedric McKinley and Marcus Sherels as well as former Minnesota State, Mankato player Adrian Battles impressed the Vikings enough during last weekend's rookie minicamp to merit roster spots as the club moves forward through its offseason program.
McKinley is a 6-6. 282-pound DE who played 2 seasons for the Gophers after playing for one of the nation's top junior college football programs at Mississippi Gulf Coast. Sherels is a 5-11, 165-pound CB who also has return capabilities on special teams.
Battles was an anchor on the Mavericks offensive line for 4 seasons, starting 43 of a possible 46 games. The OT also has good size at 6-3, 308 pounds.

Rogers, 30, was killed in a single-vehicle wreck in College Park about 1:30 a.m. Monday, according to the Fulton County medical examiner. Rogers' vehicle left the road and struck a power pole, the medical examiner's office said.
Rogers married his longtime sweetheart less than a month ago, friends said.
An East Point native and St. Pius X grad, Rogers teamed with Greg Gathers to form one of the nation's best defensive end tandems in 2000 and 2001, seasons that ended with Rogers earning second-team All-ACC honors.
The Minnesota Vikings drafted Rogers in the sixth round in 2002 and converted him to linebacker. He had 34 tackles and two sacks as a rookie.

I'm tired of this team finding a way to lose every year I hope they fix stupidity issues, the coaches need to improve critical dumb penalty that cost us the playoff game was the coaches fault for lack of discipline on players. I see no reason why an all star roster like this can't make it the superbowl. Its been a disappointment every year fans are tired of superbowl predictions its time to showcase it.

I think it is great that the orginization is giving these guys a shot. I have longed for new blood with a tie to Minnesota. Look at what the Twins are doing with locking down Mauer (from a business perspective). Fans are coming out of the woodwork and are becoming more emotionally tied to the team. I was hoping that the Vikes would pick up Eric Decker (oh well). I think these free agent pickups are a step in the right direction. Now we just need the legislature to "get-r-done". I was born a Vikings fan & I will die a Vikings fan. Players, coaches & even owners have and will come & go. We the "true" fans are the the constant. Never give up!

Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit. SP1.
Continuing the Fight Against Piracy.
I wanted to add my thoughts to the blog following Alexs departure from Microsoft last week, and give our readers a little bit of insight into our focus for the new year.
Alex, youve been a key part of Microsofts anti-piracy efforts for many years and I think I speak for the company in saying a heartfelt thank you for your years of service. I personally enjoyed having you on my staff your depth of experience and strategic insights have been invaluable, and we all extend best wishes to you in your new venture. Im sure well cross paths many times in the future - were certainly not slowing down in our efforts to combat piracy, and Im sure that is the same with you.
Looking forward, Microsoft needs to continue its leadership in fighting piracy for its own benefit and for the industry, but most importantly for customers. After closing out 2009 in December with a global Consumer Action Day, we kick off 2010 with our commitment to continue our fight against piracy, especially with Microsofts investment in its Genuine Software Initiative, which focuses efforts on three strategic areas:

Hi thre
having looked at the proposed pricing of Office 2010 the article here on Piracy Prevention just "doesn't compute".
It won't be long before ms Office 2010 hits "The usual places".
It's only by making the pricing AFFORDABLE and realistic that you will avoid piracy -- you can't solve this problem with Technology -- it doesn't matter what you do the Pirates can always invent a new get around.
The Infrastructure and burocracy of most organisations means there's a whole set of convoluted hoops that have to be gone through before development begins or "counter measures" can be taken.
The Pirates have no such restrictions -- so it doesn't really matter whatever MS does if the price is too high.
Trying to stop Piracy with the present pricing systems is just about on par with attempting to stop the tides.
Lots of Torrent sites are still broadcasting loud and clear in spite of all sorts of even BIASED courts trying to shut them down.
"Morality" or other human relational behaviour patterns doesn't enter in to it. It's simply a fact of life -- if a product CAN be obtained relatively painlessly almost for nothing then its going to be done.
I agree taking out a technet subscription is the best way for people on these types of Forums -- but even here this can cost more money than people have in many countries of the world.
BTW to prevent any mis understanding here -- I do NOT condone obtaining these products via torrents etc -- I'm merely stating why torrents exist and will continue to do so and no amount of technology will solve the problem apart from shutting down the ENTIRE Internet - which is never going to happen.

Hi Tews
-- for people like us getting a technet subscription is the obvious answer -- but we aren't normally likely to be big torrent users anyway -- I can't say I've NEVER used a torrent
I think a lot of us did during the pre RTM releases of Windows 7 and always intended to get a LEGAL copy of Windows 7 at the official release time.
However the issue is pricing -- 100 USD is a LOT of money for many many people in the middle East, Asia, China etc (and for some even even in Iceland at the moment -- about the only time in recent years I've seen people out on the streets protesting in a dark cold winters evening about the repayment terms of the failed banks to UK and Netherlands).
Technology won't actually solve the problem.
Actually it would be really interesting if MS embraced the "Cloud" concept and started going down the Open Source road. Look at companies like Red Hat and Novell who are essentially delivering a FREELY available Linux OS.

GCHQ lines up BAE and pals for 'Cyber Incident Response'

Ohio voting machines have 'backdoor', lawsuit claims
So much for the USA being the world's leading technology country!
It's amazing that after the Florida Fiasco that brought Bush in under very dubious circumstances you would have thought this software would have been fixed.
Of course, that Ohio only installed the software a few days before an election whose date had been public knowledge for decades is suspicious, especially since the Republicans arranged the software 'patch' and they have been linked to widespread voter fraud.
The pencil and paper system, plus scanner is superior, in many ways. The carpenters type pencil with a large soft lead, which is used to mark off ovals on the voting paper.
The advantages are that the voter can see where he/she marked, the paper cannot be changed, the voters choices are easily machine read and, in case of failure, the sheets can be manually read.
They are al;so useful for use in appeals.
The system is used in Canada and the technology has never been challenged.

Most likely both.
"Future proofing" is unattainable. Can they eavesdrop on Silent Circle equipped smartphones? Skype s now insecure. SFone is still pretty good.
How about people who use pager/pay[hone combinations? This where one party calls from a payphone and sends a message, in numeric code, to a satellite pager. Totally untraceable. And if the pagers are leased, separately, in another country, they are even less likely to be traced.
They already 'spy' on calling card users - payphones already retain the first three 'groups' of numbers in North America (telephone number to card service; calling card number and called number. But this can be made confusing when someone changes payphones, and the changes calling cards. How will electronic spying link these together?
If the UK wanted to spy on anyone, they could either do it themselves, or ask another member of Echelon to do it for them. They don't need to spy on everyone.
This is just another budget boost for GCHQ under the guise of fighting all these alleged terrorists.
The proposed system is even more expensive than the Americans vainglorious system.

Forstall ousted from Apple after refusing to apologise for Maps
Refund Time?
If the questionable state of Siri and the dismal Crappy Mappy is enough to can/fire a senior official, if reasonably follows that Fanbois are entitled to a refund on Version 6.

Sandy takes out NYC colo facility
Why would anyone put assets in NYC when White Plains is so close by?
White Plains, the East Coast international communications hub for decades, has an airport whose elevation is 439 feet (134 m) above sea level and is the terminus for many long haul fibre cables.
It would take a very, very big surge to flood that place. And the BBC uses it to host it's services to North America from there, too.
Apple turns off Siri's potty mouth

Hackers crack Texan bank, Experian credit records come flooding out

Jimmy Savile ringtones still selling like hot cakes on iTunes
Herd mentality in full flight
I am glad that at least some El Reg posters recognise there has been no convictions registered against the late Jimmy Saville. And never will be. Gary Gladd was convicted of having 4,000 images, not making them. He was also convicted n VietNam of abuse when he spent the night with two girls and their aunt in the same bed.
Given the extreme secrecy surrounding the matter, the closed court hearings, the less than politically isolated courts and the poor general law conditions in VietNam I would even place that in the dubious category. Please note that I am one of many Foreigners who wrote to the Prime Minister of VietNam asking that no sentence reductions be given Glad. These reductions are handed out en masse on vacations and national holidays.
No one has explained why these now 40 and 50 year old alleged victims are only now coming out of the woodwork.
As someone who came up in the Sixties, I remember it was quite common for people to 'put out' by way of appreciation. These were the days of free love, mini-vans with "Don't laugh your daughter may be inside", etc.
British IT consultant talks of his three years as an Iraqi hostage
Like Soldiers of Fortune
When the luckless Moore accepted his position in Iraq he was undoubtedly tempted by visions of quick, increased, income. He likely didn't really consider the true risks and why his employer was offering a pot of gold.
Ignoring the premises on which the war was based, let the soldiers fix the violence and THEN go in.
Another systematic SCADA vuln
It's often Third Parties
Remember the US contractor who, when vacationing in the USSR, stoked up his laptop and communicated with a SCADA system, I believe in the Chicago area? All sorts of accusations of Russian spies and the like?
This is the sort of thing that should be unnecessary. Then, it is believed, a Russian technician introduced the virus/malware into the Iranian nuclear material refinement program.
It is heartening, to me to least, to hear that a Indochinese country that is purchasing electricity from China and other neighbours refuses to permit automatic interconnected network controls with these external suppliers.
Furthermore, it has established it's very own fibre network that is 100% dedicated command and control + communications network.which is 'sterile'. There are absolutely no external connections and since the SCADA scandals has even prohibited anyone from connecting any device to it other than through a secure access point.
The US, and Canada, are so incestuously interconnected.
The Northeast blackout of 1965 was a significant disruption in the supply of electricity on 1965 November 9 affecting parts of Ontario in Canada and Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, New York, and New Jersey.
It was caused by by an adjustable safety relay being set too low.
The 2003 Northeast blackout widespread power outage that occurred throughout parts of the Northeastern and Midwestern United States and Ontario, Canada, on 2003 August 14, which lasted up to five days in some areas, including parts of Toronto.
You have never, ever seen so many official fingers pointing at each other and even across the Canada/US border. One the heat had cooled it was determined the problem lay in Ohio!
Being profit motivated, i.e. 'cheap', these outfits who formerly ran their own communications networks which included extensive microwave strings over hundreds and thousands of miles, regarded the InterNet as the best thing to come along since Edison.
Down came strings of microwave towers and dishes which were replaced with a pair of wire to the local telco.
The other thing with power and utility companies is that they are frequently technically 'conservative' and having adopted SCADA to find that this new, alien, technology is responsible is responsible for system failures is more than a little disturbing.
One benefit the US phantom war on terrorism has done is to sensitise the authorities to the vulnerabilities they face, even though the general public has to suffer harassment and embarrassments whilst travelling.
Systems are even more interconnected today and the elimination of these computer threats are a matter of national security. Canada and the US, along with many other countries, assume, foolishly, their electrical supplies are immune to attack.
Living in a country where power failure is a regular occurrence does persuade people to look to alternate power sources. My office, and home, have standby battery systems - LED lighting works from 12 volts - as well as standby generators with well-filled fuel tanks.
US Copyright Office approves phone jailbreaking and video remixes
Why does anyone outside the US care?
The US Copyright decisions affect the US and it's territories.
In many jurisdictions they either don't care or these governments have different priorities. The USA can protest all it wants to BeiJing but Chinese entrepreneurs will carry on business as usual. Likewise in other countries.
As long as trusted authorities such as El Reg, continue it's promotion of this subservience, people will actually believe, and accept, US law is world law.
If this were the case, Apple wouldn't be performing it's pantomime with Samsung all over the world.

Feds arrest Paul Ceglia over Facebook ownership claims
savage indictment of the American legal system ... based ... past character.
Obviously, correspondent Iain Thomson isn't too legally that aware.
Thousands of 'convicted felons' in the USA commence suits annually. Just because they've been convicted of / framed with a charge doesn't deny them right to see a judge.
It isn't an 'indictment' of the American system, it's system that can be seen to function inasmuch that it this clam was exposed.
Calling in the 'Feds', or cops, is an old trick. Happened to me when a large American travel-related corporation decided that our differences should be settled in court. They sued me for a million dollars. They also called the cops, who swallowed their line hook, line and sinker. Fortunately I had a smart attorney who gave me instructions regarding my property and all the civil Gestapo found in my premises was me and my furniture.
They lost their claim and had to pay my costs.
Unless you know all the details t an be dangerous to 'assume' anything.

Time to use 100% foil-backed dry wall and chicken wiire + ferrites
I saw a specification for a high powered pulsed UHF transmitter test 'warehouse'.

All services, which included water pipes, were also bonded and passed through ferrites.
If these protections can contain a signal, they can equally protect from such signals, IMO.
With respect to American military tests, many in the past have been questioned, especially when the senior officer n charge of projects was, later, hired by the contractor. Boeing has had lots of projects prove unsuccessful after detailed Congressional investigation.
The question what were the attacked buildings constructed from - woos, brick or concrete?
Hell, Boeing couldn't even build a 'high tech' fence designed to stop illegal immigrants from Mexico.

Prosecutor seeks sports-bodies guidance on troll-hunting rulebook
Jurisdiction is paramount
Plod, apart from looking for an easy conviction, has to look out for jurisdiction.

Plod is simply looking to make numbers look good and really it is as meaningless as the comments. Look at that blowing up the lousy airport - total waste of court time.

Facebook won't pull unmarked police plates page
In Newfoundland, Canada, many government owned cars have ...

The other way, to spot which are the cop cars, if you know radio antennae sizing, is by their slightly longer antennae lengths. The RCMP don't always play fair, they have concealed antennae under the rear window shelf in the trunk (boot).

On Feb. 27, parents in the Farmingdale, East Meadow, Massapequa and Levittown school districts came together for an informal panel discussion on the New York State Education Department and the implementation of the state Common Core Learning Standards.
Panelists included New York State Assemblyman Thomas McKevitt, Jeanette Deutermann of the Long Island Opt Out Facebook page, and former public school teacher David Greene, who came to the Farmingdale Public Library to talk with local parents about key concerns and questions with the curriculum.
An outspoken parent and founder of the Long Island Opt Out movement, Deutermann delved into some of the factors behind what led to the state's adoption of the Common Core, and how the state education department cites High School graduation rates as its reasoning behind the curriculum.
With the quest to craft the Farmingdale Schools' 2014-2015 spending plan underway, the Board of Education met on Feb. 26 to discuss the financial well-being of the District; a topic that the support—or lack thereof—from New York State will have a very direct impact upon.
Superintendent of Schools John Lorentz discussed how New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo's proposed budget for the 2014-2015 fiscal year is slated to include additional financial support for school districts; however, Lorentz said the increase in aid is still far short of what Farmingdale needs to ensure its standards of learning are kept intact going forward.
After a recent 45-37 win over the top-seeded team from Baldwin, the Farmingdale High School Boys Varsity Basketball team will be heading to the Nassau County 'AA' conference finals. According to Head Coach Jim Pastier, this is the first time since 2002 that the Dalers have advanced to the county finals.
"Nobody gave us a shot since before the season," said senior Malik Seelal, directly following the victory over Baldwin. "That was our motivation."
Curtis Jenkins, who led the Dalers' squad in scoring throughout the regular season, was held to an uncharacteristic seven points, meanwhile Ron Winkler carried the load with a tremendous 15 point and 14 rebound performance.
Salt used to melt ice and snow from the roadways has become a hot commodity in Farmingdale—as in most of Nassau County—even after Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced an extra 400 tons would be shipped to Long Island to combat future snow storms. This winter,
New York has used over 46,000 tons of salt in less than two months time, according to state officials. Whereas, on average, the state only uses 30,000 tons per year.
Farmingdale village officials found themselves in a bind following the snowstorm on Feb. 14, when foremen with the Department of Public Works reported that the village had run out of salt.
Sometimes having a passionate fan base can affect the home team. The Farmingdale Dalers admitted the volume and intensity of the crowd at the game against Calhoun "forced them to rush their shots" in the first quarter, according to Dan McKeon.
Fortunately for the home crowd, the Dalers were able to relax and overcome an 11-point deficit against their opponent to advance to the Nassau County quarterfinals with a 47-38 victory.
While the Dalers would strike first to put up an early 2-0 lead, the squad's scoring chances were quickly stifled by the Colts' defense—scoring only one more basket in the first quarter of the game.
After calling a stop work order on all construction in the village, Farmingdale officials met with the developers and representatives from National Grid and LIPA to discuss a recent gas leak caused by the ongoing development of 120 Secatogue Avenue.
"The findings at that meeting were most distrubing," said Farmingdale Mayor Ralph Ekstrand.
According to Ekstrand, National Grid representatives said it is at their sole discretion whether to cut off gas service at the property line or at the gas main in the street.
Nassau County Police detectives are investigating an officer-involved shooting that occurred on Feb. 14, in downtown Farmingdale.
According to homicide squad detectives, the incident occurred as police were searching for a stolen vehicle, which had just occured from the parking lot of the Lotus Garden Chinese Restaurant at 345 Conklin Street. A nearby officer—parked at the Spartan Diner located at 1580 Broad Hollow Road—spotted the vehicle.
This St. Valentine's Day, more than 600 Farmingdale High School students celebrated the holiday in a non-traditional manner to spread awareness to the growing concern of suicide and depression amongst teens and adults.
On Feb. 14, students and faculty dressed in all-purple attire in recognition of the "P.S. I Love You" initiative—a campaign created by West Islip High School senior Brook DiPalma, after her father committed suicide. From the tragedy, DiPalma said she was able to take away something positive, and has since been an advocate for suicide prevention on Long Island.
Curtis Jenkins, two-sport star for Farmingdale, scored the go-ahead, fade away jump shot with 3:00 remaining in overtime to put the Dalers up by two over Freeport. Farmingdale ultimately won the see-saw battle by a score of 57-52—and thereby won a spot in the playoffs.
Jenkins led the scoring with 21 points on Senior Night.
"Jenkins is probably the best athlete on Long Island," said Head Coach Jim Pastier. "He's one of the best basketball players around here right now. We need him to do what he did tonight, and we expect that out of him."
Vietnam War author Phil Keith stopped by Farmingdale Public Library on Sunday, Feb. 16 for a book signing event organized by American Legion Post 449.
"As amazing as some of these events sound, they are not made up," said Keith. "They actually happened."
Keith has written two novels, Blackhorse Riders and Fire Base Illingworth.

sararay's own diet
losing 0.3 lb a week
I am a FS veteran. I am 5'7" tall and muscular. I have had to work hard all of my life to get to a healthy weight but mostly I have struggled with body image issues since I can remember. I have high metabolic resistance and I strive to make the right choices every day. My autoimmune condition (Crohns Disease) and consequent medications impede my weight loss. I have two young children. The last one was born my c-section, after a very difficult pregnancy, in December of 2012. Since then I have struggled to get my energy back.
My main focus is on health. I am doing a whole-foods diet and I eat gluten-free and soy-free and I limit my dairy. By eliminating foods that I had sensitivities to I greatly improved my health. By eliminating refined carbs I reduced my cholesterol and body fat percentage before I got pregnant the first time. I am here for record keeping because it is the only way that works for me. I have done it before, I don't know why I shouldn't be able to do it again.
I love to read and my favorite diet and nutrition books are: "Patient Heal Thyself" and "Restoring Your Digestive Health" by Jordan Rubin; "The Body Ecology Diet" by Donna Gates; "Good Calories, Bad Calories" and "Why We Get Fat" by Gary Taubes; "The Cortisol Connection" by Shawn Talbott; "The South Beach Diet" by Dr. Arthur Agatston; "The Fat Flush Plan" by Ann Louise Gittleman; and "Nourishing Traditions" by Sally Fallon.
I love to read and discuss the latest research. Message me any time.

Do I Really Burn That Much?
I use this RDI calculator
It even calculates a 7-day zig zag (rotation) calorie plan for you. If you subtract 1500 from the FS totals instead of 1000, it is more accurate to your weight loss needs. At least it seems to be working for me and it agrees with the above RDI calculator and my doctor's recommendations.

Muscle Loss-- considering Metabolic Diet
I forgot to mention that if you choose to carb cycle, you might benefit from doing the higher carb-loading on days that you DO exercise so you burn the carbs instead of really "load" them on. KWIM?

Tips for quick workouts
Honestly, I have been trying to work in cardio for two years now and I am a SAHM. I don't live in a safe neighborhood and getting people to walk with us was hard. Walking just does not raise my heart rate enough, even when pushing a stroller. I finally broke down and bought an elliptical (saved up for it). It is cheaper than a year at any local gym and I do it during her nap time. I get on it an hour a day now.
My husband gets on it when we put her to bed at 8pm and he works all day. He didn't want to go to a gym after work either because he wants to spend time with us after working all day. It is hard for him but he can pound out at least 2 miles on it in 30 minutes.
We got a Schwinn A40 through walmart.com. With site to store you don't have to pay shipping.

Muscle Loss-- considering Metabolic Diet
I actually put on muscle quite easily on Atkins. A few years ago (pre-baby) I lost 17% body fat (and 2 dress sizes) but only 5% of my weight in 3 months doing strict Atkins and exercising regularly (cardio 5x/wk and weights 3x/wk). I actually have high metabolic resistance. I didn't have any problems with energy level, but I found I did have to eat many small meals in order to keep my energy level up. Hunger was no longer the signal of needing to eat due to ketosis.
If I ate about 200 calories of protein and fat about 30-60 minutes before my 1-2 hour long workout sessions, I was fine. Once you get to maintenance and you don't have fat on your body to burn any more, of course you have to fuel your body with some pre-workout carbs, but while you have fat to burn, if you are in ketosis you should be easily burning the fat on your body. If you only eat enough carbs that you burn in your workout then theoretically you could stay in ketosis, or at least return to it quickly.
To the person who tried Atkins for 2 weeks and said they had no energy, it was probably because you were still detoxing from carbs. It also took me a while to get to a stable eating regimen on Atkins because it took me a while to realize that I needed to eat more often when I no longer felt hunger.
