Oxford Uni chucks big brains at ivy-covered cybersecurity hub
A nice idea...
A great initiative but the biggest issue with academic research is that it *tends* to look at the new and shiny rather than the practical and financially viable.
Industry has always seen IT spend as a necessary burden but when it comes to security they often just see it as a burden. One which *may* never serve any purpose. Of course any rational person will tell you that it is an equally necessary requirement but convincing your bosses to run a technology uplift for security purposes usually only comes as a result of changes to policy or the law.
Mobe hackathon contest spits out Wi-Fi-by-bonk app wonder
Re: Impossible with QR...?
Agreed it is far from impossible but the NFC solution does appear to have a couple of things going for it. Where this is proposed to be used (i,e. cafes) the owner may wish to change thier access password semi-regularly and so a printed version wouldn't be very convenient. A screen is a good idea but is likely to be more costly both in the short term and long term.
Although an outlay would be required for the new connect-by-bonk router it provides convenience, no changes to infrastructure and no additional operational costs.
Now personally.... if I had the £10,000 I would be looking at how I can set up partnerships with major brands (i.e. Costa) to include marketing within the App. Connect-by-bonk and get a 5% off code for thier carrot cake.
I do like a Costa carrot cake.

Becrypt disk crypto earns first Brit spook kitemark
Re: Only 'restricted'?
The CPA Foundation scheme only allows a protection level of up to Restricted. CPA Augmented scheme allows protection up to confidential (as the article says) but missed the fact that a company needs to spend significantly more money and submit their source code for approval to be verified as this level.
If you wish to protect SECRET or TOP SECRET you'll need to look towards the CAPS schemes which are significantly more expensive again and much more invasive.
This isn't necessarily saying that they Becrypt product cannot protect against a higher level of assurance but it is more likely that there is no financial or marketable benefit in gaining a higher assurance level certificate.

The cyber-weapons paradox: 'They're not that dangerous'
Re: Is SCADA particularly difficult?
SCADA is not particularly difficult; what was special with the Iranian Nuclear Plant was that the SCADA system was on an air-seperated network (i.e. no external connectivity) and as such it was silently transfered through the use of digital media (USB I believe). To do this silently and with no harm to any carrier systems and to meaningfully attack the systems showed that the capability level of the attacker was far beyond that normally seen.
When looking at cyber-warefare (and hence cyber-weapons) you are generally looking at consolidated attacks. For example; during WW2 you wouldnt just send your privates out to the battlefront but you would also send your medics. Now when you go to war you don't just send in your tanks but you use your cyber-weapons to disrupt communications and logistics. More often than not; you are not looking at performing permenant damage but are looking at causing interuption.
While I agree with a number of the principles within the publication I do disagree that a 'hack' cannot result in loss of life.
Whistleblower: Decade-long Nortel hack 'traced to China'
Re: Typical example
Thumbs up for the comment but a general reminder that PCI-DSS only addresses security within a specific industry (Payment Card Industry) and CISSP is historically described as a mile wide but only an inch deep.
While I agree COTS products do have their issues alot of security standards (FIPS, CC and CAPS CPA) are working towards defining decent protection profiles so that organisation may have a greater confidence in adopting these products. However; within any system you must always consider people, process and technology.
As the PFY once said; "Security is a journey, not a destination."
Hackers may be able to 'outwit' online banking security devices
Defence in Depth
No security is infallible and there always has to be a focus on defence in depth.
While a dual-authentication system is very robust (which still remains the case) the man in the middle attack may be implemented if a user does not take the appropriate precautions to ensure their system (i.e. desktop) is appropriately protected with updated malware\virus protection. The main reason this is not a 'popular' attack is that it has a very small attack time window and requires regular monitoring; the result being that it has very low value to an attacker in comparison to other attacks.
It should be noted that certain banks do offer free browser addins that will provide additional protection that are particularly designed to protect against these attacks.
While it is interesting that the BBC has done a report on this; as indicated by the comments above this is not a new attack and should not be considered your primary point of concern if you decide to use online banking or a chip-and-pin card in general.

UK ICT classes killing kids' interest in tech
RE: Two things
This is clearly a misunderstanding of the concept of user against developer.
I entirely agree that your bog standard user will only need the simple concepts of internet browsing, email read/writing and image editing. This is why things like the iPad will continue to grow in popularity.
However don't underestimate the importance or the massively expanding nature of computer sciences which look at the development of neural networking, artificial intelligence, high speed image recognition etc etc etc. These developing regions require encompasing knowledge of both mathematics and physics to both understand the history of these concepts and help define the future.
It is quite simply wrong and misleading to attempt to group IT studies (using a computer) and Computer Science (developing information systems)
eBay shill bidder gets £5,000 fine

"He was investigated by Trading Standards after a buyer complained he had been sold a clocked minibus."
If the 'industry leading technology' can't detect that the seller and bidder have the same IP address && same contact details what exactly is it doing? Am I missing something here?
Blizzard awarded $6m in WoW bot case
A step in the right direction?
As a founded geek and (unfortunately) dedicated player of WoW I am happy to see that Blizzard is now targeting the manufacturers of these Bots while at the same time identifying and banning the users of them.
Blizzard has in the last year removed all need for repetitive game play of gold farming and generic mob slashing so that players have the opportunity to focus on their targets final goals whether they are PvP or PvE. The only monotonous task left in the game now is the levelling up of a character that has even recently been improved by systems allowing you to level up 3 times as fast.
The purpose of Bots now days are only to support a 'Glory Hunter' who wishes to have everything in the game for none of the effort.
With regards to comments of perverts in the game; this is why WoW is accompanied with age restriction, parental controls, server types (PvP, PvE and RP) and even language filters to protect the innocent. But this really does fall into a whole different article.

Beseiged Bavarian village preps anti-millipede defences
The Bavarian village of Obereichstaett is constructing a foot-high wall around the entire hamlet to prevent the entry of thousands of millipedes which have each autumn "for hundreds of years" invaded the sleepy corner of Germany. Bernhard Koderer, 45, who lives in Obereichstaett with his wife and two kids, said: "Last year was …
Want to see pics of this.... anyone?
Rail terminology
Good old One Railway would have such an event covered with their currently posted blanket excuse.... they are advising of Autumn timetable alterations due to "railhead adhesion performance"
You've just gotta love the British Rail networks :)
Sounds like...
Someone at least is renewing screaming lord such's policy on national defense, albeit in a smaller way...
His idea was always to erect a foot tall wall all around the UK so at night any nasty invaders would trip over it.
Giant Bug !
Aha - these must be the offspring of the Giant Bug of Arlesburg !

I guess blackberry season is over
The best excuse for train delays I've heard has got to be "what day is it? oh it's tuesday... then it must be that the driver is picking blackberries"

Pictures? Pictures!
Somewhere in the middle of http://www.stern.de/wissenschaft/natur/:Obereichst%E4tt-Mit-Fleischkas-Tausendf%FC%DFler/600953.html you find some thumbnail images. Click on them.
So why is it a problem now?
OK, the millipedes have been doing this "for hundreds of years." Why have the villagers decided to build a wall now? And why would anyone stay in the area after they noticed, hundreds of years ago, that it was millipede heaven?
Is it a car-free village, or does it have interesting, 100% vertical 1 foot humps in the road? If not, there's a flaw in this plan... as you prevent them from going out.
OTOH, these being german, well-disciplined crawlies, a policeman with a stop sign either exit of the village will suffice.
Best delay message i have heard was...
"Bus 740 to Bondi Junction has been delayed due to a monumental cock-up at the depot"...
Some how i dont think it was the normal station announcer on the mic that day...
And i have to ask - if this has been going on for 100's of years why are they only now trying to do something about it?
Re: Best delay message i have heard was...
Even better was when a friend travelling on the London Underground realised that they'd left the Platform speaker microphone box unlocked.
The commuters were amused (or, perhaps, amazed) to hear the announcement that "We apologise for the delay in the arrival of the next service, this is because we're completely incompetent and couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery!"
He faded into the crowd as a number of LRT staff converged on the speaker system... ;-)
next up the food chain?
What eats millipedes? Are they tasty? What's the bag limit?

When Millipede Meets Train
Luckly the problem of Millipedes and trains has been covered by the greatest minds. The bright fellows at Improbable Research, givers of the Ig Nobel Prizes, have been looking at the problem since August 2000.

Mmm good idea, maybe you could introduce a large frog that would eat them all!

The men's basketball coaches in the East Coast Conference recently selected Hicksville's John Petrucelli as the 2013-14 East Coast Conference Player of the Year.
Petrucelli, a four-time All-Conference recipient, takes home the conference's top honor in his senior season. In 28 games, Petrucelli has poured in a conference leading 23.7 points per game on 47.5 percent shooting. His scoring prowess, which also currently ranks seventh in all of Division II, led to him eclipsing the Molloy program record for points earlier this season. Petrucelli does much more than score for the Lions, stuffing the stat sheet in numerous categories. He ranks in the top ten in the conference in nine different categories including minutes per game (36.1), rebounds (208), and steals (103). His steals total and steals per game number (3.68) are tops in all of Division II.
Nassau County Hockey Season will soon be underway and tryouts will be held in the upcoming weeks. There is also a shape up schedule for any hockey player who wants to get in shape for the upcoming tryouts.
Tryouts will be as follows:
Hicksville's Matthew Sloan faced off against the best young soccer players in the world recently, as he traveled to Turkey with the Olympic Developmental Program.
The Hicksville High School freshman started playing soccer when he was three and advanced his game to a more competitive level at age 10, when he was chosen to play with the Long Island Rough Riders. Sloan plays other sports and is on the boys basketball team, but says that he loves soccer because of the fast pace, and because of the coaches who have had a great influence on him throughout his training.
The Hicksville Middle School Kickline claimed victory again recently at the Scholastic Kickline Competition held at Nassau Community College. The team competed against top kickline teams and placed second in hip hop, third in pom and third in kick. County legislator Rose Walker, an honorary Hicksville Kickline team member, supported the girls at the competition. The middle school kickline team's season began in September, and includes dancing at football and basketball games and competing in three tourneys. Their last competition of the season was March 2 at Nassau Community College. The girls are coached by Hicksville kickline alumni Katelyn Heuser, Victoria Shannon and Laura Bueche.
This November, Hicksville resident Marlo Signoracci will head to Florida for Ironman, a demanding, long distance triathlon that includes biking, running and swimming. Here, she shares her story as she prepares for one of the most physically challenging athletic events out there.
Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.
Hicksville High School's gymnastics team finished a succesful season recently, coming in sixth in the team County Championships
Out of 20 teams in Nassau County, only eight teams make the County Championships. Going into the meet, Hicksville was ranked fifth.
When it comes to the Nassau County bowling tournament, throw away any preconceived notions you had about bowling. The Hicksville boys team used tenacity and emotion to roll their way to second place in the county tournament this past weekend, coming in behind East Meadow. Their six game average was an impressive 1023, with each bowler averaging 204.6.
Head Coach Justin Sullivan was "absolutely proud" of his boys' performance. During his eight year tenure at Hicksville, he has had a very strong run of success, winning the Nassau County title in 2008-'09, and finishing runner-up the past two seasons. Sullivan, who graduated from Hicksville in 2002, noted that it is "even better" to win with the school that he attended.
Matthew Sloan, a freshman at Hicksville High School, is one of 17 boys from the Region 1 Olympic Developmental Program (Maine to Virginia) chosen to travel overseas from February 15 through 23, to play soccer against European youth Pro Teams in Turkey. Sloan was selected for this team as a result of a series of evaluations and tryouts from the NY State Olympic Developmental Program level. The evaluations began in November with his trip to Arizona to play in the National Olympic Developmental Program Tournament and culminated with a regional tryout which was held on January 3 through 5th at Penn State University. Sloan has been a member of the varsity boys soccer program since seventh grade at Hicksville High School and is a member of the Boys Basketball program and National Honor Society.
This November, Hicksville resident Marlo Signoracci will head to Florida for Ironman, a demanding, long distance triathlon that includes biking, running and swimming. Here, she shares her story as she prepares for one of the most physically challenging athletic events out there.
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. That is what I am doing in 2014. I am going to be an Ironman.
The Hicksville girls basketball team mounted a dramatic fourth quarter comeback attempt, but it fell short as they were defeated 36-27 last week to Farmingdale.
The game featured outstanding defense on both ends, forcing teams to commit a multitude of turnovers stemming from both errant passes and backcourt violations. For much of the game, Hicksville consistently committed costly turnovers, trailing 22-6 at halftime. In the fourth quarter, however, the tables were turned and the team mounted a comeback on the strength of an 18-5 run.

Silence reigned supreme in Eritrea, where the entire independent press was under a government ban and 11 journalists languished in jail at year's end. Clamorous, deadly power struggles raged in Zimbabwe over land and access to information, and in Burundi over ethnicity and control of state resources. South Africa, Senegal, and Benin remained relatively liberal from a press freedom perspective, while corruption and fear pervaded newsrooms in Mozambique and Togo.

The Coast Guard says it's helping coordinate cleanup of a 200-gallon oil spill in a marsh near the Port Sulfur High School.
The spill was reported Friday, and the Coast Guard says an investigation team responding found the spilled crude along about 3,000 feet of shoreline. The Coast Guard attributes the south Louisiana spill to high tides that caused oil to spew from a hole in an abandoned wellhead.
The Coast Guard says an official for the state will assess the wellhead Monday and make plans to secure the hole.
The Coast Guard and state Department of Natural Resources are overseeing the cleanup from the shoreline.
The Coast Guard says a company hired for the cleanup work has been encircling the wellhead with absorbent materials and containment boom.

Video: Dirk Nowitzki Rolls Ankle, Then Comes Back To Hit Clutch 3 In Mavs Win
With a shade under eight minutes to play in last night's Wizards-Mavericks game at the Verizon Center in DC, Bradley Beal — in his first game of the season, after returning from injury — knocked down another three-pointer to give the Wizards an 85-84 advantage. At the same time, Dirk Nowitzki rolled his ankle on the back of Kris Humphries' foot. Dirk would leave, but the all-time leader in points scored by a foreign-born player would return and show why he's a champion and future Hall of Famer. Read More »

Movie Preview: Definitely, Maybe
by Entertainment 30 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Putting aside the fact that Ryan Reynolds seems too boyishly young to be Abigail Breslin's father, Definitely, Maybe looks extremely adorable. Breslin plays Maya, a little girl who wants to learn about her parents' love story. Reynolds, as her nearly divorced father Will, wants to avoid the topic altogether but appeases his daughter by telling her stories of his relationships with three women, and Maya must figure out which one is the story of his romance with her mother.
From the trailer, the movie looks lighthearted and sweet and features some of the cutest actors out there (Ryan Reynolds, Isla Fischer, Abigail Breslin). Definitely, Maybe opens February 14, 2008 so to watch the preview and see what you think, read more

Tacloban Revisited
On November 8th, 2013, Typhoon Haiyan tore through the Philippines. Waves over 5 metres high battered Tacloban. In just a few hours, the capital of Leyte Island was razed to the ground. Six months on, despite administrative delays and the fear of another typhoon, the inhabitants are getting organised. But reconstruction will be a long process. France 24 returned to the stricken coast to meet the survivors.

Stricter ignition interlock law takes effect in state
Whether they submit a breath test or not, every allegedly drunken driver loses their license to suspension.
But if a person's driver's license is suspended due to drunken driving in a rural area such as Clallam County, how does he or she get to court-mandated alcohol treatment classes or to work?
According to the Washington State Traffic Safety Commission, most people drive illegally.
But the new ignition interlock law gives those accused of driving under the influence a chance to lawfully drive after their arrest. It also mandates those convicted of a DUI to have an interlock device installed in each vehicle they drive.
An ignition interlock device requires a driver to blow into a cell-phone-sized mechanism in order to start the vehicle.
If the driver has alcohol on his or her breath, the car won't start.
"Sponsors of the bill that changed interlock law wanted to see two things - to see increased use of interlocks and to avoid impacting people's lives by suspending their license," said Steve Lind with the safety commission.
"There was an older law, but convicted offenders were not always required to have an interlock, and those awaiting trial would still have their license suspended, often resulting in a lost job or family complications. That was not the intent of the law," Lind said.
Driving under the influence can spiral into a series of arrests, citations or probation violations for driving without a valid license, according to Lind.
The state Department of Licensing puts a 90-day suspension on the license of anyone arrested for a DUI, no matter what happens in the court process. The new law gives people a chance to continue driving during that time while making sure they do not drive while intoxicated.
The shift caused an increase in ignition interlock installations within the first two weeks of 2009 by those arrested during the holiday season.
"The installation increase is dramatic," said Mitch Hodges with a state-certified ignition interlock supplier that has a contracted installation location in Sequim, the Master Locksmith store.
"We are the only ignition interlock installer in Sequim," said Shauna Millar, Master Locksmith sales manager.
"It takes about an hour, and clients must watch an instructional video. Then they come back every month or two and get each breath test downloaded for DOL."
Millar said she's heard all sorts of stories from her clients, ranging from arrests to having difficulties getting their license back.
"What I hear most from clients is that they are confused about how long they are required to have the interlock and if their time using the interlock before conviction - which is voluntary to get your license back - can be applied to the required period of interlock driving after the conviction," she said.
Department of Licensing spokeswoman Selena Davis said the department recognizes the time people have an interlock prior to a conviction as part of complying with the judge's orders.
"Usually, you're looking at a 90-day suspension after your arrest, so that is three months off of what a judge assigns you after conviction, which varies based on your driving record," she said.
Those with deferred prosecution for an alcohol-related incident must have an interlock for two years. Those convicted of a DUI for the first time must have it for one year; a second DUI brings a five-year interlock obligation.
"You must have an interlock installed on every car you drive, not necessarily on every car you own," said Davis.
"It's when you drive a car without an interlock that you get in trouble again."
Those with an interlock license are not allowed to drive commercial vehicles, and the special license is not available to those charged with vehicular homicide or assault. Those who refused to submit to a breath test are able to obtain the license.
The new law raised the rates for interlock monitoring by $20 to subsidize devices and monitoring for those who cannot afford them.
For a complete list of ignition interlock exemptions, information and ways to qualify for a subsidized interlock license, visit www.dol.wa.gov/driverslicense/iil.html.
Reach Evan McLean at
How to apply for an ignition interlock driver's license, according to the Department of Licensing:
_ Install an ignition interlock device in every vehicle you drive.
_ Get proof of insurance, such as SR22
_ Complete an ignition interlock driver's license application
_ Submit application with processing fees of $100
Costs for an ignition interlock driver's license include:
_ $100 for application processing
_ Fees for necessary insurance
_ Cost of installation, monitoring and removal of interlock
_ $20 monthly fee to help those who cannot afford interlock

When I first moved out on my own, I did not know how to cook very well. I could heat up a can of soup or throw a frozen pizza in the oven, but that was the extent of my culinary talents. When my hours at work got cut, I knew that I was going to have to become more economical with my eating habits, so I decided to learn how to cook. Since I like chicken the best, I wanted to find recipes with ground chicken that were delicious, easy to make, and easy on the pocketbook too.
I was able to find a website that has a huge amount of recipes that fit all three of those requirements. Continue reading

The Indispensable Nation's Indispensable Weapon
Obama can't live without drones, Pakistan can't live with 'em. So the president bowed to the Islamic street.
Obama's Plumbers
This time, a secretive president has gone too far.
Out With It
Americans deserve to hear the dirty secrets of the CIA's war on terror. We'll all be better off with the truth.

The Limits of Leading by Example
President Global Zero is learning the hard way that cutting back America's nuclear weapons arsenal doesn't cut the mustard with rogue states.

In the streets of Pakistan, people have had it about up to here. For the Obama administration's diminished goals there, maybe that's not a bad thing.

In the new India, everything is moving a mile a minute. Except politics.

By PoliceOne Staff
DORAVILLE, Ga. — An off-duty detective was killed in a head-on crash with a reported drunk driver Monday.
Detective R. Shane Wilson was on call as a SWAT officer when dispatchers informed him of a home invasion call, according to ODMP. As he drove to the scene, the accident occurred. Shortly afterward he succumbed to his injuries, according to reports.Investigators arrived and combed the scene for nearly four hours, WSBTV reported. They returned several hours later to collect more information, and it is believed that alcohol may have played a role.
Wilson, a four-year veteran of the Doraville Police Department, leaves behind a wife, an 8-year-old son, and a slew of fellow officers who will remember him.
"Nothing prepares you for a day like today," Doraville Police Chief John King said. "Something like this is truly tragic. Shane was an incredibly young, agressive, passionate police officer. He loved his job. He loved this community."

Topless is one thing on islands where it is accepted, but I had an argument with my friend in St. Barth's over nudity in front of the hotel chambermaids. She has no compunctions about having them or the waiters enter her room fully dressed or completely naked or in between, whether to serve breakfast, leave towels or whatever. Once lately I had to call for towels in a hotel room when none had been left and I only discovered this AFTER taking the shower, and was without a robe or anything and quite embarrassed. My friend says I am nuts, hotel staff has seen it all especially in the islands. Who is right, we have a bottle of Veuve Clicquot riding on this! Thanks!
Nudity in front of the hotel staff...right or wrong, I have bet with my friend...

Tacky, tacky, tacky!
Sounds like she is just getting a cheap thrill to me...
What, does she think these people WANT to come into her room to deliver towels or food and find her bent over picking up a magazine off the coffee table?!
Does she have no respect for the feelings of others? Jeez!!!
Not to mention the possibility of someone getting the wrong idea and jumping on her! (Or is that what she is looking for so she can get her room comped?)
Chill the Veuve Clicquot (and drink some for me - it's my fave!)
Report Abuse
I think it is gross and inconsiderate to be nude in front of hotel staff. On the other hand, how many times have I been in bed when hotel staff knocked once really really quick and then opened the door and came in. So far, nothing much was happening at the time but I have learned to always put the security lock on! I think staying in bed with the sheets pulled all the way up is okay, given my experiences and hotel staff is used to that, but nudity and lack of respect for privacy is terrible. The champers is yours, no doubt.
Report Abuse
Ummmmmm.....and how will you decide who is "right"? By the number of pro or con responses on an anonymous travel forum?
Of course it's your hotel room...you can do whatever you want. It's not illegal to be nude in front of the staff.
Tacky and low class, yes.
Illegal or prohibited, no.
Report Abuse
Well now Terry, why would your friend limit her nudity-in-front-of-the-staff routines just to the islands? I mean, why not at The Fairmont, or The Bel-Air, The Plaza, or The Fairfield Inn out by the airport?
What the heck, staff is staff, the world around. They don't count for anything. Why, they're essentially invisible, have no feelings, and certainly don't require any consideration.
In fact, I see no reason why the staff shouldn't share her viewpoint and be nude around her, too. I'll bet Alphonse, or Jean-Pierre would love to deliver breakfast, or a towel, clad in nothing but a smile.
How do you think your friend would like that?
The next post we'll see is the friend complaining about being a crime statistic on St. Martin.
Of course, Terry, your post could just be a troll, looking to start a thread.
Report Abuse
Terry, sounds like your "friend" may have a screw loose.
Very, very tacky behavior, not to mention very dangerous.
Report Abuse
Nonudie, she may be looking for a "loose screw"!!
Report Abuse
Tacky and rude. Who cares if she is comfortable with people seeing her naked but it's the point that she might offend or make the hotel staff uncomfortable. Another point is, does she really want to attract any unwanted attention also?
Report Abuse
This is not very acceptable. Topless only for outside sunbathing. This is rather crude if done intentionally.

Narrowed down to 2 (or3) Resorts
Ok, We have gone all over the place with trying to decide which resort to choose. We stayed at POP twice, so we are looking for a new experience. I have spent hours researching PO French Quarter and Coronado Springs, and although we are currently booked with CSR, we may switch to POFQ or even Movies. Here are our main things to consider in the order of importance:
1. short walk to bus, pool and main building (we hated the walk from rubics cube room at pop century)
2. Not having to stand or wait long times for buses (heat of July, agg)
3. Interesting for Children (they love the brightness and environment of pop)
4, Nice Counter service place to get breakfast daily
5. Nice newly decorated/renovated rooms
CSR is beautiful, (SO is POFQ i am sure) and has probably the best Pool at disney (IMO), Kids will love the CSR pool. And again, book preferred, or just request Cabanas, they are very close to the bus and the main building and the main pool, AND they have a quiet pool.
The difference in price between CSR (with the deal) and POFQ(which doesn't get the deal) is significant, its about $250, dunno how significant that is to you.
Your dates are July 25-June 3 ?
there is only a difference in 40 bucks over the 8 days, so not an issue between CSR and POFQ.
1447 for CSR
June 25-Jul 3
i have a pin, doing dining plan, water parks, 8 days. overall 40 dollar diff.
They are both going to be fantastic resorts, each with particular appeals to particular people. Some will like the pool or grounds or layout more at either resort. Some will like the boat to DTD others will like the centrality of CSR. Some will like the decor in CSR and the Big wood doors to the bathroom, others will like the decor of FQ ...
I say look at the pictures, and do what appeals to you most :)
I'm am by no means a Disney expert and am pretty new to the boards, but in the past two years DH and I have stayed at both CSR and POFQ in mid- October. We both very much preferred POFQ, however, we do not have kids.
I really loved the small size of POFQ as compared to CSR. Though our building at POFQ was probably one of the farthest from the bus stop/main building (POFQ has only one bus stop area located right outside the main building) it was only a few minutes walk and we ended up taking a shortcut through a parking lot on most days.
I really liked that POFQ only had one bus stop, because that meant when we were picked up we got to go straight to the parks. CSR has four bus stops which, depending on which stop you use, meant waiting a while on the bus before actually heading to the parks.
I've read that POFQ often shares a bus with POR, however, when we were there in October 2012 this only happened to us on the way back to the resort from Epcot and HS. In those instances, the bus dropped off the POR guests first and then us. It is possible to get off at POR and walk to POFQ, though we didn't need to do that in that instance.
Clearly, busses are a big deal to me and I was a lot less stressed and irritated taking the buses at POFQ.
When we stayed at CSR we were near the main building as well as the main bus stop; however, this resort is so spread out it could make a trip to the main building a little less convenient than it would be at POFQ. I feel like our wait times at the resorts were similar, but overall I would say we waited less as POFQ; however, that could just be luck.
One thing I did find to be better at CSR was the main pool. We enjoyed the slide and theming. This may be more important to you since you are traveling with kids in July.
At both POFQ and CSR we only ate breakfast at the CS location in the main buildings. The CS location in CSR consists of several different stations with different types of food and you can go and choose what you like and it will be made for you as you wait. It is very spread out and I always ended up confused. It's kind of like a buffet though because you have a server who brings your drinks and you pay as you leave instead of up front.
I feel that the breakfast food at each of these locations is pretty much the same, it's just the set up that is different. At POFQ you also get your food at different stations, but then you pay and sit down and do not have a server to bring you drinks. I liked this better just for the fact that the food area was smaller and more contained, though the are pretty much interchangeable in my book.
I also think the rooms at these resorts are very comparable in size and comfort, though I felt like my room at CSR seemed older, though this is not true at all, so maybe I'm just remembering wrong. One thing we could get at CSR and not at POFQ was a king size bed.
We also got to take the boat back to POFQ from DD, which was nice.
Overall, DH and I really enjoyed our stay at both these resorts, but if I had to pick right now which to go back to I would definitely pick POFQ.
Regardless of what you choose, have a wonderful trip!
1. short walk to bus, pool and main building (we hated the walk from rubics cube room at pop century) -- POFQ is relatively small, not a long walk to anything
2. Not having to stand or wait long times for buses (heat of July, agg) -- this could happen anywhere
3. Interesting for Children (they love the brightness and environment of pop) -- how old are they? if under age 7 then POFQ, if older kids then CSR for the better pool slide
4, Nice Counter service place to get breakfast daily -- POFQ has yummy beignets but CSR has the better food court overall, IMO
5. Nice newly decorated/renovated rooms -- I prefer the decor at POFQ but CSR rooms are bigger, I think
Our favorite resort is the POFQ... (we don't have children)
Love it for all the reasons you've mentioned.... also, the pool is awesome, and there is a boat to take to downtown disney. The food is awesome and offers some New Orleans type things.
Your poll also had the Movies resort. I opted for this last year for one night before our cruise. And I loved it. While the room is noticeably smaller, it was very similar to POFQ. Food was great. We didn't have the chance to jump in the pool, but it looked nice. Lots of kids. The theme is movies, so there is a little movie theater type area of kids in the lobby area (very cool!). They also offer movies at night I heard. The bus area did not have a covering whereas the POFQ did. Big difference when you are in the heat of the summer!
Good luck choosing!
Our last two stays have been at POFQ and we loved it. It is small and easy to navigate, the pool area and bar were a blast, food court one of the best IMOP, the cast members were friendly and helpful, and the resort is just lovely and themed great.
I love all the positive comments about POFQ!!!!!!
I haven't stayed at POFQ, but we visited there and used the pool when we stayed at POR. You can use the pools at either one if you want to. If you have kids, unless they are 3-4 years old or VERY timid in the water, I'd go for CSR. The slide at POFQ is unimpressive and not very long or steep in the least. We literally only stayed about 5 minutes at their pool before heading back to the pool at POR, and my kids are not big swimmers. It also does not have quiet pools, so if the main pool is busy that's it, unless you want the long hike to POR to use their pools. The decor at FQ just seems more geared towards adults too.
Cabanas 8A would be ideal for you. It's close to the pool, a bus stop and just a quick walk across the bridge to the food court.
With the time frame you are going, it will be hot and humid. I hope you're planning lots of pool time! You may want to be sure to get to the parks at opening while it's not too busy or hot yet. So close to July 4th, it will be crowded.
Not sure why you start new threads about this so often. I hope you are enjoying planning the vacation and have a good time. Relax...you'll have a great time!
CSR has such a deluxe feel to it. The lake is so beautiful in the morning and lit up at night too! I enjoy watching the turtles(there are many) swimming in the lake areas as well. If available I just tried the new business class and really loved it. Children seemed to enjoy it too.
Really I love all the mods, you can't go wrong! CSR is just my favorite.
POFQ has everything you're looking for. It's an amazing resort.

City paying to fix collapsed road downtown
Updated On: Jul 18 2014 07:36:26 PM EDT
For more than two years, city officials have been dealing with a collapsed road downtown that they thought the contractor was going to pay for.
Now News4Jax has learned the city is footing the bill and will have to sue to get about $750,000 back for fixing the large hole on Liberty Street near Coastline Drive.
A crane was working on the garage and it was too heavy and caused the road to give. Since then nothing has happened. In fact, the hole has only gotten larger.
When the accident first happened in April 2012, News4Jax was told the contractor was working to fix it. But after delays and input from insurance agents and the city, work basically stopped.
Now the city is stepping in to fix it and pay nearly $750,000 because the road is vital for development there and for special events.
"We have a problem there that needs to be fixed, so we decided we would create a parallel path," said Jim Robinson, of the Department of Public Works. "We are still trying to get the private company to fix it, but to put pressure on them we decided to start the process as we would like to fix it."
The city plans to sue to get the money back. In the past cases like with the courthouse and other botched projects, that hasn't worked.
"There is no way to predict exactly how that will come out, but I will tell you the facts are clearly in our favor," Robinson said.

When we think Woodward Dream Cruise, thoughts of muscle cars and golden oldies pass between our ears. But while we're all about the painstakingly restored classics, there is always a little room in our hearts for anything emanating from the land of misfit rides.
Whether you're talking about Elvis himself, a murdered out Dodge Grand Caravan, a perfectly restored Merkur XR4Ti (who does that?) or a run of-the-mill Pontiac Grand Prix emblazoned with airbrush artwork from the band Kiss, Dream Cruise 2011 featured more than its fair share of automotive oddities. We even saw a Gremlin, and it was still running! And the Ford Thunderbird with the ill-conceived aero kit? You may want to skip that one.
We can go on all day, but you're better off if you simply click on our image gallery of the strange sights from the 2011 Woodward Dream Cruise.
