Just curious. He lives in North Carolina now - the bugs haven't changed. Maybe the KKK haven't changed either. Sounds like a short stay for him in Charlotte??? Seems obvious he changed his mind if he's now a North Carolina resident. A very high profile North Carolina resident. The article didn't address his change of heart. I don't know anything about the state of North Carolina so this was a confusing article indeed.
Originally written on Larry Brown Sports | Last updated 11/20/14
Patrick Ewing is arguably the greatest player in Georgetown basketball history, but what many people may not know is that he was close to becoming a North Carolina Tar Heel. Had it not been for the Ku Klux Klan or some loud creatures of the night, he might have been college teammates with Michael Jordan. [...]

In your attempt to be smart, witty and snarky you failed. Charlotte is no where close to Chapel Hill. Pay attention in Geography class.
Charlotte is certainly a lot closer to Chapel Hill than Boston is. He is acting like they do not have crickets or other bugs in Massachusets. What a major league whimp!
As for the geography lesson, Charlotte is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours away from Chapel Hill. Not near as far as you think it is. All you have to do is get on I-85 and you are there in no time.
Why do you have to be nasty and hateful?
True he's in Carolina & the bugs are the same as well as the KKK...
However, I doubt he's staying at the Carolina Inn & I bet the neighborhood he lives in has better security that the Carolina Inn
& I'm I pretty sure he has a little more money for an exterminator than he did in his College days..
The bugs haven't changed. As for the Klan, they are probably still around but don't get the attention they once did. I grew up in NC back in the 50's and 60's. They were worse than the bugs. You couldn't kill them.
How could Patrick nEwing be afraid of bugs? He's a country boy from the woods in Jamaica where bugs are plentyful, much more than NC. I don't get it. He talks too much. And now he wants to go back? Gimme a break.
He was BORN in Jamaica but was grew up in Cambridge, Mass across the Charles River from Boston.
the article is pointless..........
...making your comment even less so.
Sorry, but I don't believe Patrick Ewing on this. "There was a big Ku Kux Klan rally in North Carolina while I was there." Huh? So this high school student from Mass. hears about a Klan rally somewhere in North Carolina. While he is there. I wonder how he heard about this "Klan rally". Maybe John Thompson was in his ear? Nah... Couldn't be. Because John Thompson would have no motive to get a hot prospect to come play for his basketball team. Couldn't be that.
I was offered a scholarship to Georgia Tech and after having come down there from Ohio and been openly discriminated against in a restaurant by the all white staff, I went back north. So yes, a klan rally would be very off-putting to any intelligent young person making a decision like that.This happened to me at around the same time Ewing would have had his expeerience. I live in Texas now, and a few degrees and much better income makes putting up with the terminally stupid much easier.
Wow borisspasky you are IGNORANT!!!!!
You've never heard of the Greensboro Massacre!?!...which was at that time - people were killed during a KKK rally less than 30 miles from UNC.
You'd have to be blind and deaf not to hear about KKK rallies in North Carolina which happened EVERY WEEK!
Simple...young and being put in an Inn is a lot different than being mature, rich and living in a mansion. I would think many Inn's have bugs and I'm sure his house does not.
I would have changed my mind also if the University that is supposed to be interested in me, gets me a room at the Carolina Inn! So what if he was just a high school grad at that time? He can tell between clean and YUKKK! No wonder it was very dark and buggy. The KKK wouldn't have changed my decision though. By the way, I'm from NC (the part that is beautiful and not buggy).
I don't beleive Patrick, Ku Kux Klan rally in North Carolina, NO WAY !!!
"put me in that Carolina Inn and there was a big Ku Klux Klan rally"
They put him in the Carolina Inn? More likely he was offered a few more $$$ under the table to go north but the KKK story sounds better than a payoff.
Yes - KKK rallies happened in that part of NC very often then.
Look up the Greensboro Massacre, in which PEOPLE WERE KILLED during a KKK rally one year before Ewing would have been there.
The KKK still has a strong presence in NC.
What's most likely is that you are an uneducated ignoramus - In fact you've proven it by disputing facts with your own lies.
LOL...Those would be cicadas, Patrick...not crickets...nor are they 'southern', they're also found in Boston and Washington, DC...and although they can be loud (I happen to find the sound pleasing)...they are not so distracting as to have made us overlook or forget the thousands of white Bostonians lining the streets to hurl bricks and profanities at the school buses trying to bring black kids into the white neighborhoods in 1974...but without the white sheets.
The press and Mr.Ewing know that if you mention the K.K.K. then they can get attention.I am sick of hearing about the K.K.K. who are now so small that they don't hardly even matter.Why does Mr.Ewing not say anything about the black panther party and the Muslims who are more hateful than the Klan.
People like you kill me. How can you even compare the black panther party and the Muslims as you say to the KKK. The same klan the has burned down homes, killed scores of men, women and children mostly African-Americans among others. I don't remember the BPP ever killing people. The Muslims killed people, please. The Panthers were their to protect certain areas from police harassment. You really need to read more. You probably believe George Washington was a great man and Lincoln really freed indentured African-Americans. Please, do some research. You don't seem too stupid. They have put a stain on American History that can never be erased, but we can all learn from.
This article seems like nothing more than "Larry Brown Sports" effort to influence high school basketball prospects to avoid UNC. To begin, UNC wasn't even Ewing's first or second choice. He dislikes bugs and crickets? Larry Brown Sports, are you serious? HE'S FROM JAMAICA!!! Hello, ever been to the tropics? Larry Brown Sports must think it's readers are morons. Otherwise, they'd know Dean Smith was instrumental in breaking the racial sports barrier in college basketball -and he had the death threats to prove it!!! Come on Larry Brown Sports readers and potential UNC basketball prospects, exercise a little intelligence!
The KKK and Neo Nazi's that killed people in Greensboro about the time Ewing was down there didn't wear white sheets either.
...but they did shoot at the police and kill people in broad daylight.
...it's called the Greensboro Massacre.

Ultima Thule Centerpiece BowlPrice: $140.00
Design by Tapio Wirkkala, 1968.
Made in Finland by Iittala.
Inspired by the melting ice in Lapland, designer Tapio Wirkkala originally created the textured surface of Ultima Thule in the 1960s, after carving into a graphic mold. This exclusive design reflects thousands of hours spent perfecting the glass-blowing technique required to produce the effect. Each piece of the Ultima Thule collection features a sophisticated, intriguing pattern that evolved organically during production as the glass burned the surface of the wooden molds.
Designed for everyday enjoyment, the Ultima Thule Centerpiece Bowl is dishwasher safe.
Material(s): Cast glass
Dimensions: 14.75" W X 14.75" D X 3" H
Designer: Tapio Wirkkala
(1915-1985) Born in Hanko, Finland. Tapio Wirkkala is known as the versatile genius of design. His contribution to design includes everything from glass products to the design of banknotes and graphic art. During his career, Wirkkala has participated in many interntional exhibitions, as well as being the artistic director of the University of Arts and Design in Helsinki for many years. He has won a large number of awards, including three gold medals at the Triennale in Milan in 1951, followed by another three in 1954.View other products by Tapio Wirkkala
Manufacturer: Iittala
iittala: Timeless design since 1881.
In the early years of modernism and functionalism, during the 1930s and 40s, pioneers like Alvar Aalto and Kaj Franck led the development of the Iittala brand. Their belief was that objects should always be designed with a thought, essential and above all, available to all. It was their thinking that set the foundation for the Iittala design philosophy — to push the boundaries and to give people beauty and function.
Iittala strives to create icons that will last a lifetime. What started as a glass factory in Iittala, Finland, now celebrates generations of essential objects that are made to enrich people's everyday lives. More than just beautiful objects, Iittala creates timeless designs that will never be thrown away.View other products from Iittala

BROOME COUNTY, N.Y. -- College athletes from Binghamton University traded in their basketballs for hand paint with the purpose of giving back to the community and making a difference in the life of a child.
BU and the Magic Paintbrush Project have teamed up the last two years, giving children with special needs a chance to "Paint with the Players." Both the men's and women's basketball teams and their coaches spent time with the children Monday. Of course, that means getting covered in paint in the process.
While the process may be messy, participants say it's about getting to a point where everyone is enjoying the moment.
"It's really exciting to see the students come in. They are a little bit guarded, they don't know what to expect, not like anything they would go into in life. To see them explore, to see the new kids get out of their comfort zones and really learn how to play again is really exciting for all of us," said Jennifer O'Brien, Magic Paintbrush Executive Director.
The Magic Paintbrush Project has been around for more than six years supporting families with special needs children. Since its creation, it has provided fun filled workshops for more than 23,000 participants.

Margaret Uyauperq Aniksak
Canadian, 1905–1993
Mother and Child, 1969
28.6 x 12.3 x 17.5 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Twomey Collection, with appreciation to the Province of Manitoba and Government of Canada
A number of female artists from Arviat learned to work the hard metamorphic stone that is hand-quarried locally for carving. Margaret Uyauperq Aniksak began working in 1966 and earned wide respect for her humanistic sculptures. She is best known for her maternal themes that convey the strong relationship between mother and children. In this work the woman's body provides a strong and protective environment for the infant held firmly in her arms. Aniksak was interested in giving more realistic shape to her sculptures than most Arviat artists, as demonstrated in this sculpture by the one leg that projects forward to give an unexpected dynamism to the composition.

Many people are getting their first paychecks of the year this week and if you noticed a difference, you're not alone. The expiration of the payroll tax reductions means more money out of the pockets of all Americans. Our Iris St. Meran has the details on the tax and some money saving tips.
UNITED STATES -- On social media sites, many people pointed out a two percent difference in their paychecks. For most people, that means between $20 and $40 each paycheck. But there are things you can do to make up for the difference.
Many people are getting their first pay check for 2013 this week and judging from discussions on social media sites, they've also noticed, they're getting two percent less.
"It's really not an increase in the taxes, it's just a removal of a tax reduction. For the past two years, we've had a two percent decrease in the payroll taxes. That expired at the end of 2012," said Certified Public Accountant Ron Pratt.
The payroll tax rose from 4.2 to 6.2 percent. As a result, most people will see between $20 to $40 less with each paycheck.
For someone making $30,000, that's approximately $600 less over the course of a year.
At Clearpoint Credit Counseling Solutions, Counselor Kiesha Johnson says you should have a budget.
Johnson said, "You definitely want to track for at least 30 days so you can get a good understanding of where you're spending your money. This should be something you put into your lifestyle a little at a time. The more that you're doing it, the more you're paying attention to what's going in and coming out. And you're paying more attention to what you're spending."
Avoid eating out. Bring your lunch and coffee if that's a daily expense. Use coupons and pay down high interest credit cards.
Once you know where your money is going and you don't have a savings account, get one. Pratt says putting as little as $20 away every paycheck into a savings account is helpful over time.
"I like to tell people to have a separate savings account setup so it doesn't get blended into your everyday checking account. We have a tendency to spend money if it's sitting there," Pratt said.
Since you'll be in the saving mode, the goal should be to have three to six months of your income saved up. That's important in case you run into a financial situation like being laid off or an unexpected medical emergency.

Brazilian fashion week on Moda Operandi just keeps getting better and better. From amazing crescent shape earrings by designer Silvia Furmanovich, pink leather vest by Pedro Lourenco and a great yellow maxi dress by Isolda. Today on the site they're featuring jewelry designer Ara Vartanian and his namesake label. Think luxurious arm parties. For ready to wear Moda Operandi dreamt big, really big with Paula Raia's innovative and immaginative illusion gowns. In fact, Raia's pieces are so amazing, I am showing several pieces from her designs so that you get a full look at the majesty of her imagination.
For jewelry designer Ara, studying in NYC and working on Wall Street was not enough. He had exotic jewels pulsing through his veins, as the son of two Armenian jewelers. He doesn't create "collections" and he sketches his jewels one by one, making sure each piece is unique and true to its form. I had a hard time picking a favorite here, and I instantly LOVED the black and white diamond, with green tourmaline bangles. However, I've also never seen a semi-precious/precious gem double-finger ring. So I picked both, ah a girl can dream! The opal and sapphire ring will look amazing with light blue denim or a pin stripe blouse.
Ring (here); Bracelets (here); Light Blue Denim (here); Pin Stripe Blouse (here)
All Available on Moda Operandi
Paula Raia is a Brazilian born beauty who studied as an architect and has worked as an editor and stylist. Now, she brings us what she has learned. I could go on and preach my love for this collection, but I will just show you the pieces. Pay attention to detail…do you see that? As for how to accessorize this gown? Keep the heels as light and high as possible. For jewelry, why not wear the Silvia Furmanovich earrings that I picked on Monday. Good? Good.

This motion shows up in some styles of Karate (opening movement of several Shotokan kata - Bassai Dai, Jiin, Jion, Jitte) and some Kung-Fu styles. What does it represent?
This motion shows up in some styles of Karate (opening movement of several Shotokan kata - Bassai Dai, Jiin, Jion, Jitte) and some Kung-Fu styles. What does it represent?
This ritual is called Bao Quan (抱拳), literally meaning "Fist Wrapping", and is a common etiquette derived from (but not exclusive to) Chinese Martial Arts. It is not necessarily a bow, but rather a salute. Traditionally, this is practiced by:
There are two traditional explanations.
Edit: I have also heard numerous other explanations from various instructors in different styles of Kempo and Wushu, ranging from the "Right is war, left is peace" to the meeting of Taoist (right) and Buddhist (left) cultures in unity. The two I list as traditional (above) come from sources who've been very helpful in researching things in the past. These edit-included excuses tend to be perpetuated down less reputable lines.
There are many reasons for this action. It is, by the way, not the opening movement of a form, but a salute, a ritualistic motion. Here are a few reasons:
In the system that I teach in, the left hand symbolizes the mind, the right symbolizes the body. We have three bows as you progress through training:
I think this is being over analysed. This is simply a courteous symbol of respect. All martial art instruction emphasises that conflict should be avoided wherever possible. I must admit that I find the idea of different expressions of respect dependent on grade a little bizarre.
The fist is symbolic of fighting or war, the open hand is covering it showing that we come in peace, but are ready for war if that is what the other person wants or brings. The open hand with the fingers straight is also similar to an extended open hand ready to be shaken. With the fingers outstretched towards the other person it's basically showing that we prefer to be at peace over war.
There are of course many other meanings attached to it as well, but that is basically what is taught in the gung-fu system that I learned.
This hand posture is also found associated with the sho chiku bai (pine, bamboo, plum) formations as seen at this link: http://www.skski.net/sho-chiku-bai-mon.html. More details about that can be found there, as well.
In Morihei Ueshiba's book on aikido talks about the sho chiku bai throughout its pages, but doesn't discuss the hand postures: http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Teachings-Aikido-Morihei-Ueshiba/dp/1568364466/
Robert Trias of Shuri-ryu karate mentions Sho Chiku Bai. He doesn't necessarily stress it, at least not within his Pinnacle of Okinawan Karate book. However, all of the Shuri-ryu katas (and perhaps others) end with each of these hand positions. The connection between them is not well explained, though (in my experience).
Bowing has been used thru the ages, throughout the world mostly to show subservience to your betters, to be lower than them, that you acknowledge them as your superiors. It has been adapted to show greeting salute, humility, apology and other salutations.
Many Kung fu and martial arts adapted the traditional bow to a new form to never take your eyes of your opponent. The open hand wrapped over closed fist bow was originated by a group of Quen Daoist monks from wu dang mountains. The two fists together meant battle salute while the hand covering fist meant 'I do not wish to fight but stand ready'. The monks migrated to the Shaolin temple. The Shaolin monks then edited this bow and gave new meaning to it with the left open hand. The closed fist represents the sun while the left open hand signifies the moon. The sun and the moon are the two great sources of light and when placed together they signify "Ming" which means bright in Chinese. The Ming dynasty (1368-1644) was an amazing era in Chinese history which saw an explosion in culture and prosperity. Many different martial disciplines adapted this bow and gave their own spin to it but it originated with the fathers of Gongfu not to be mistaken with the originators of martial arts which is ancient Thera 1650 bc with Minoan boxing.
As for Asian disciplines, Boddhidarma an Indian monk brought weapon styles to China and they adapted the styles to unarmed combat styles praise be Kung Fu and Karate were born but that's another topic.
Off topic: Martial discipline history is fascinating. Many styles predate any we currently practice. Japanese Koryu, German Ringen, the Togakure-Ryu manuals from India is exquisitely rich in disciplines also. I teach at Michigan state devoted my life to martial study and after 20 years barely scratched the surface
I always get them mixed up, but I used to know a Northern Shaolin form that started with the right fist in the left palm and then you 'shot' out your right fist to the side, pushing with the left palm. From that I always remind myself that right fist covered with left palm is 'begin fight' and left fist covered with right palm is 'peace' or stop fight.
It's called Bojumeok (보주먹) in Kukkiwon Taekwondo (http://taekwon.net/mks/files/attach/images/130/859/002/d9a9a87f6fc340c73053285d96bba4f7.jpg).
As far as I understand it (and it wasn't touched on much in our Kukkiwon Master Instructor Course in Korea) it's a mainly symbolic movement, simply representing umyang (the Korean version of yin-yang, used on the Korean flag) - one hand tightly clenched representing strength and rigidity and one hand softly wrapping it representing gentleness and fluidity, both are useful in martial arts and it's knowing when to use each that is important.

Bruins pull away from Starfires late
HARTFORD CITY – Blackford sophomore Lauren Godfrey buried a pair of 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to give the Bruins some breathing room Saturday night as they pulled away from a South Adams team still looking for its first win of the season.
Godfrey hit four 3-pointers in the contest and led Blackford with 16 points, but none of those were bigger than the back-to-back triples she hit in the fourth quarter to help the Bruins post the 44-35 victory.
South Adams got within a point at 30-29 when Dzejna Ahmetovic scored to open the fourth quarter. A Zoie Mann free throw gave Blackford a two-point advantage before Godfrey went to work.
Godfrey hit the first of her two bi...

Located in Kentfield to the north of the Bay, the Hillside Residence is a green-roofed beauty with captivating views of the surrounding landscape. Designed to engage as well as fit in with the surrounding landscape, the home features natural building materials and is capped off with a living roof. A curved retaining wall follows the contour of the back hillside and anchors the home into the earth. In the back is a small lap pool contained within a private courtyard that is sheltered from the wind but soaks up all the sun.
Two stories with 5,900 sq ft of space, the main living and dining rooms are on the top floor. Natural daylighting, ventilation as well as passive heating and cooling work to reduce energy use. Shed roofs angled towards the sun emerge from the green roof and serve as the foundation for the photovoltaic and solar hot water panels. The home also features radiant floor heating, battery storage, rainwater harvesting and collection in a cistern.

Carbohydrates are one of the main dietary components. This category of foods includes sugars, starches, and fiber
Starches; Simple sugars; Sugars; Complex carbohydrates; Diet - carbohydrates; Simple carbohydrates
The primary function of carbohydrates is to provide energy for the body, especially the brain and the nervous system. An enzyme called amylase helps break down carbohydrates into glucose (blood sugar), which is used for energy by the body.
Carbohydrates are classified as simple or complex. The classification depends on the chemical structure of the food, and how quickly the sugar is digested and absorbed. Simple carbohydrates have one (single) or two (double) sugars. Complex carbohydrates have three or more sugars.
Examples of single sugars from foods include:
Double sugars include:
Honey is also a double sugar. But unlike table sugar, it contains a small amount of vitamins and minerals. (Note: Honey should not be given to children younger than 1 year old.)
Complex carbohydrates, often referred to as "starchy" foods, include:
Simple carbohydrates that contain vitamins and minerals occur naturally in:
Simple carbohydrates are also found in processed and refined sugars such as:
Refined sugars provide calories, but lack vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Such simple sugars are often called "empty calories" and can lead to weight gain.
Also, many refined foods, such as white flour, sugar, and white rice, lack B vitamins and other important nutrients unless they are marked "enriched." It is healthiest to get carbohydrates, vitamins, and other nutrients in as natural a form as possible -- for example, from fruit instead of table sugar.
Most people should get between 40% and 60% of total calories from carbohydrates, preferably from complex carbohydrates (starches) and natural sugars. Complex carbohydrates provide calories, vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
Foods that are high in processed, refined simple sugars provide calories, but very little nutrition. It is wise to limit these sugars.
To increase complex carbohydrates and healthy nutrients:
Here are recommended serving sizes for foods high in carbohydrates:
For information about how many servings are recommended, see the article on the food guide plate
Here is a sample 2,000 calorie menu, of which 50 - 60% of the total calories are from carbohydrates:

The Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School is a leader in the study of the law and policy around the Internet and other emerging technologies.
Copyright and Fair Use
A healthy copyright system must balance the need to provide strong economic incentives through exclusive rights with the need to protect important public interests like free speech and expression. Fair use is foundational to that balance. It's role is to prevent copyright from stifling the creativity it is supposed to foster, and from imposing other burdens that would inhibit rather than promote the creation and spread of knowledge and learning.
The Fair Use Project (FUP) was founded in 2006 to provide legal support to a range of projects designed to clarify, and extend, the boundaries of fair use in order to enhance creative freedom and protect important public rights. It is the only organization in the country dedicated specifically to providing free and comprehensive legal representation to authors, filmmakers, artists, musicians and other content creators who face unmerited copyright claims, or other improper restrictions on their expressive interests. The FUP has litigated important cases across the country, and in the Supreme Court of the United States, and worked with scores of filmmakers and other content creators to secure the unimpeded release of their work.

Yesterday, the White House declared "It's Time to Legalize Cell Phone Unlocking". The call was in immediate response to a petition with over 114,000 signatures on it, decrying the Librarian of Congress' decision last October to let lapse an exemption ensuring people who unlocked their phones would not be in violation of the anti-circumvention provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA), Read more » about White House in Favor of Phone Unlocking!

Lohan, Noriega video game lawsuits are a troubling sign for the artsAuthor(s):Christopher SprigmanPublication Date:October 30, 2014Publication Type:Other Writing
Former Panamanian strongman Manuel Noriega and actress Lindsay Lohan have at least one thing in common: Both recently filed high-profile lawsuits against video game makers, charging that their likenesses were used in games without their permission.
These suits may seem like acts of desperation by people now more notorious than famous, and a judge has already ruled against Noriega. But they are nevertheless extremely worrying. Read more » about Lohan, Noriega video game lawsuits are a troubling sign for the arts
Piracy Fuels the Fashion IndustryAuthor(s):Christopher SprigmanPublication Date:September 8, 2014Publication Type:Other Writing
When, in 2011, Oprah Winfrey asked Ralph Lauren how he "keeps reinventing," Mr. Lauren answered: "You copy. Forty-five years of copying; that's why I'm here." Mr. Lauren, a Jewish kid from the Bronx who built a spectacular career reinterpreting the look of the old WASP aristocracy, was at least partly joking. But what made the quip funny was the fact that knockoffs are — and always have been — a pervasive part of fashion. Read more » about Piracy Fuels the Fashion Industry

Hollywood's Copyright Lobbyists Are Like Exes Who Won't Give UpAuthor(s):Marvin AmmoriPublication Date:March 10, 2014Publication Type:Other Writing
You know when you break up with someone and they just don't get the message? A few months later, they're trying again, testing the waters with a few small things that just keep getting bigger. They friend you again on Facebook. They start liking your posts. They show up at a party they expect you to be at. They ask you for drinks, just to "catch up," you know? And then they talk about the way things used to be, and if only you two could try again. And you're like, "What part of 'I never want you to be a part of my life' did you not understand?"

Lang v. Morris
Sarah Morris is a well-known multimedia artist and filmmaker. In 2007, she debuted her "Origami" series, 24 paintings in which she reworked, redesigned, and reshaped origami crease patterns on canvas. Several origami artists sued Morris for copyright infringement, arguing Morris had unduly appropriated their allegedly copyrightable origami crease patterns in developing the "Origami" series.

Right of publicity law is a mess. Courts apply a variety of tests and apply these tests inconsistently to different forms of media. At the same time, the right of publicity impacts a wide range of speech--from movies, to computer games, to baseball cards. Uncertainty about the relevant standards makes it difficult to advise clients about the scope of the right. Read more » about The Right of Publicity in the Digital Age

In the first documented attack of its kind, the Internet of Things has been used as part of an attack that sent out over 750,000 spam emails.
The security firm is confronting the ZeroAccess botnet, which is likely to have more than 1.9 million slave computers at its disposal for click fraud and bitcoin mining.
The botnet has targeted at least 202 Web sites that serve 14 billion ad impressions. The botnet apparently accounted for 9 billion of them.
An HP report suggests the reclusive country's cyberwarfare capabilities are rapidly making it a threat to Western systems.
The software giant teams with the FBI and financial services industry groups to slow down a cybercrime ring that is allegedly responsible for roughly $500 million in losses.
More than 120,000 Windows-based computers running Internet Explorer 9 are infected in the U.S., researchers say.
Symantec and Microsoft join forces to stop a botnet, and for the first time they provide clean-up tools directly to people with infected computers.
With 631 active command and control servers, the U.S. far surpasses any other country when it comes to malware-controlled zombie computers, says the antivirus vendor.
A report that Internet-connected refrigerators are part of massive botnet struggles to stand up to scrutiny.
FBI credits the social-networking giant with helping take down the suspects behind one of the largest cybercrime hauls in history.

Four by Three: The Family Film 11
The fourth and final episode of the groundbreaking series 'Four By Three' is released today. Produced and directed by Clay Porter for Red Bull Media House, the final instalment of the much watched series focuses on the dynamic of Atherton Racing and the place they call home, North Wales.
Credit: Red Bull / Clay Porter Productions
With much of the year spent travelling the globe to compete, Llangynog provides a welcome bolt hole at the end of the season, a 'polar opposite' to the hectic lifestyle that is part and parcel of being a world renowned mountain bike racer. This episode provides a candid look at how the Atherton siblings relax away from the intense world of racing in the quiet welsh retreat, where 'no – one really knows much about mountain bikes or racing and it doesn't matter to them what's happened at the weekend'
Amazing riding coupled with next level cinematography defines Four By Three and the final episode finished on a real high.
