text: Raikkonen: The simulator is really very useful 14 January, 2014 Kimi Raikkonen Ferrari driver Kimi Raikkonen's aversion to simulators is well known and well documented, but at the start of his second stint as a Ferrari driver the Finn appears to have embraced the concept. On Monday Raikkonen embarked on his first week's work at Maranello since he departed at the end of the 2009 Formula 1 season. It was the first of three days at the factory where he is familiarising himself with the 2014 version of the team, for whom he won the world title for in 2007 – their last F1 World Championship triumph to date. He will be meeting the engineers and team personnel whom he will be working with during 2014 and beyond. Raikkonen said, "It's good to be back at work. I began by getting used to all the new systems and procedures that we will use this year. From this point of view, the simulator is really very useful." Kimi Raikkonen celebrated his last victory as a Ferrari driver at the 2009 Belgian GP "It's true there's lots to do, but the workload is not much different to what it was in the past. For me, these days in Maranello are also an opportunity to be with the team and spend a bit more time with my many friends here," added the driver popularly known as the Iceman. At the same time last year Raikkonen said, "I just think that I can learn nothing in the simulator. I learn a new track quickly, without a simulator." This opinion seems to have been reversed as F1 'testing' these days is virtual, predominantly done on simulators, as real world testing is severely curtailed in an effort to cut costs. Ferrari said on its website, "Kimi will stay in Maranello until Wednesday this week, proving that the Finn is keen to renew his relationship with the team that was his home from 2007 to 2009, as quickly as possible."

O'Ferrari $$$$$$$$$$$ plus being spanked by grosjean sine June, must've melted his pride…er…. heart. Hawk Kimi is like Lewis.. by the time they say what they are told to say, they have already expressed their feelings. we will always take the first one. Dr. Azlan That 2009 SPA GP was where he took on Fisichella from the bottom of the hill. @Samdescorpion Spanked by Grosjean? haha.. Kimi does not like simulator for learning a new track.. why do such ppl even follow news if they are not capable to understand the sport…?? jeff C'mon its a new simulator. Not in Co logne. Tuned who's to say that Kind won't learn a lot from this or nothing. The picture makes Mr 7 look all beat up and parties out.somebodys taking a bad picture of a guy that's a a lot of racing left. I welcome him back at Certain. captain tortuga Whahaha Kimi =hypocrite! what a abnegation. I disliked Kiwi since he left Lotus for the money. (because he always said, i have money, i race for fun bla…bla…bla) Now he starts liking the sim.. next thing you know, he is second driver to wipe alonso's ass. -mark my words- Urko @captain idiot; I'm sure u are working for free. captain tortuga Urko , no i'm not, then again i'm not saying i'm doing it for fun. His job i would for free though.. O'Ferrari @Samdescorpion I too laughed as romain led the team in the second half of the season. Not as much as you, clearly. …… Urko Then why aren't you doing it…..for free?;) Urko Then why aren't you doing it…for free..? matthew Most of you seem to misunderstand what kimi said, and to be fair the article was intentionally misleading. He said the simulator was useful for learning procedures. Things like button placements and when to push them. He never said it was useful for practicing hot laps. Although maybe he should, the only 2 drivers that spend lots of time on simulators are vettel and alonso, and we all know how they did last season. Fernando Aloser O'Ferrari's mother works for me. It's not free but it is cheap. captain tortuga Urko, because my dad replied "Are you f#kking out of your mind?!? you have any idea what that costs?!?!?!" to the question : 'can i have a kart'? LOL How much vodka must they be giving kimi to get him to actually work? Red Horizon Kimi is not back at Ferrari to make beautiful interviews and truthful statements to the press (as in this case), but to do great races and great results for him and Ferrari, so who cares? Jman captain tortuga You're an idiot. A total idiot. Kimi left Lotus for the money, did he? No. Kimi left Lotus, primarily because they couldn't give him financial guarantees in order to demonstrate that they could continue to be competitive. They failed to do this, so he left for Ferrari. Why? Because they are a top team who are also an engine manufacturer and therefore likely to have an advantage. Now look at Lotus. They're going to miss the first test, STILL don't have a title sponsor and are carrying over £100m in debt. But, no, Kimi left for the money. As I said, you're an idiot. stoner @jman these TROLLS captain tortuga, hawk and O'Ferrari are the kind of people who like poking in somebody else's nose. Dr. Azlan He left Lotus because Lotus did not honor a contract. It's hard to work with people who can't keep a promise. matthew @Dr. Azlan that's exactly it. I sure as hell wouldn't work for free, no matter how great the job is! OK… Maybe I would do porn for free, but i'm sure my girlfriend would have a thing or 2 to say about it… O'Ferrari I'd have left Lotus, too. Can't pay wages.. can't develop car… being outpaced by team mate. If you're gonna phone it in until retirement, at least do it with a team that has the resources to give u more than a fleeting chance. I'm sure Ferrari paid mega $$$$$ and kimi is now doing what he us paid to do. Simulator, press releases, Ferrari ski trips, etc. Nice way to spend your middle age. sebolonso Hahahaaa…You are such a funny guy O'Ferrari. Kimi was brought back because Felipe and Fernando couldn't do what they were paid to do. Simple as that. I understand You are absolutely terrified as fanatic Fernando fan…and honestly you also should…because next season will be a nightmare for You. Sorry about that, but life isn't fair. Use a helmet:). Badman Jose Most video game are entertaining diversions.. Jose Stoner @sebolonso hahahah, you are right, these trolls will be taught a lesson next year Ventana "Samurai and his scared fans" F1 sucks now @ Matthew , yeahhh your girlfriend will say 1 or 2 things ; that you are not big and good enough to do porn ! stoner @Ventana :LOL Scamurai's O'Ferrari I am looking forward to this season. It should be be pretty good if kimi has pulled his finger out, ar last. Hoping it's not a repeat of 2008/9/12/13 of fast- slow – fast – fast – fast – slow – slow – beaten by teammate – sulk – sulk – give up.

The Vegetarian Gem of KauaiPosted on 07 / 11 / 2014
We ate here our first night and our last.......and should have eaten here every night in between!!! The night we flew in, we were tired and not too hungry so came here for appetizers. The pot stickers were to die for......and the sweet potato samosa's and pumkin soup were super deliciious as well. Throughout the week we went to various other "veg friendly" places and their idea of creating a vegearian dish was serving vegetables and rice with a block of tofu stuck on top. Very disappointing. So on our last night here we headed back and I was sooo hoping that their main dishes were as good as their appetizers. They did not disappoint!!! OMG, the Coconut MacNut Tofu was absolutely amazing!!!! It had the texture and flavor of a perfectly done fish without having to kill anything! It was so flavorful.....yumi.....And we had a vegan brownie w/bananna chocolate ice cream for dessert. Best vegan meal I've ever had in a restaurant--even better than Millennium in SF. And there was live music to boot which added to the whole island vibe. Perfect way to end our 8 day venture in Kauai! Don't foreget....it's a BYOB place.
Cons: BYOB--not really a con, it's cheaper!

Writing for kdnuggets.com
I have been writing freelance for kdnuggets.com
Its a great learning for me to be a better writer especially for analytics and programming
These are a list of articles -interviews are in bold and I will keep updating this list when there are new additions

How to be a better writer
Background- I wrote this as an accident while trolling on Quora. I was not confident of what I wrote- in fact I wrote it anonymous except people kept asking me why! It was pure serendipity- I wrote it less than 4 minutes and submitted without thinking. Then edited once based on feedback.
Some one clearly more smarter than me made my tips for writing into a picture http://amandaonwriting.tumblr.com/post/54265230509
and it went popular on Tumblr just like it did on Quora!
Apparently if some guy like Wil Wheaton likes your words, it can go viral! It has 41799 notes ( reblogs+hearts) on Tumblr as of now.
Words . Reposted by a member of STAR TREK:NG. I can now die a happy Geek! The Internet is a funny thing!
Thank you everyone! Now if only Google learnt to include OCR for Images as part of text search!
- Write 50 words . That's a paragraph.
- Write 400 words . That's a page.
- Write 300 pages. That's a manuscript.
- Write everyday. That's a habit.
- Edit and Rewrite. That's how you get better.
- Spread your writing for people to comment. That's called feedback.
- Dont worry about rejection or publication. That's a writer.
- When not writing, read. Read from writers better than you. Read and Perceive.
But overall, just write more to get better.
1887+ votes on Quora!! :) Probably my most viewed content ever- !
Also it got a mention here-
Now I think I should take some of my own advice and get back to writing
The dichotomy in being a writer on open source with a non-open access publisher
- The publisher adds credibility to your work
- A self fulfilling prophecy where researchers want to publish in exclusive journals and closed -access books, for the sole reason that others did so as well before them and thereby donate their knowledge and money to the publisher
The dichotomy in being a writer on open source with a non-open access publisher?
- I write on open source R ,
- and I have been published (one book )
- and am on contract to write two more ( R for Cloud Computing) and (R for Web and Social Media Analytics)
- My publisher does have open access journals.
- But the book is at $50. Most of India lives at less than 2$ per day. Thats 800 million people in my country alone.
But the publisher is the most reputed in this field. So what are my choices? How do I get more people to have choices to read books.
Take open knowledge , curate it, and turn it behind a $50 paywall. I am sorry, Aaron. People like me are the reason ……
Writing a technical book
This is a fairly concise collection on how to write a technical book. It may seem arrogant for a 1- book author like me to do so, but I get a lot of queries on this and it seems there is a fair amount of information asymmetry on this process. I have experience with getting rejected and accepted in both creative and technology domains, but I will make this post fairly tech specific.

Data Frame in Python
Exploring some Python Packages and R packages to move /work with both Python and R without melting your brain or exceeding your project deadline
If you liked the data.frame structure in R, you have some way to work with them at a faster processing speed in Python.
Here are three packages that enable you to do so-
(1) pydataframe http://code.google.com/p/pydataframe/
An implemention of an almost R like DataFrame object. (install via Pypi/Pip: "pip install pydataframe")
Usage:u = DataFrame( { "Field1": [1, 2, 3], "Field2": ['abc', 'def', 'hgi']}, optional: ['Field1', 'Field2'] ["rowOne", "rowTwo", "thirdRow"])
A DataFrame is basically a table with rows and columns.
Columns are named, rows are numbered (but can be named) and can be easily selected and calculated upon. Internally, columns are stored as 1d numpy arrays. If you set row names, they're converted into a dictionary for fast access. There is a rich subselection/slicing API, see help(DataFrame.get_item) (it also works for setting values). Please note that any slice get's you another DataFrame, to access individual entries use get_row(), get_column(), get_value().
DataFrames also understand basic arithmetic and you can either add (multiply,…) a constant value, or another DataFrame of the same size / with the same column names, like this:
#multiply every value in ColumnA that is smaller than 5 by 6. my_df[my_df[:,'ColumnA'] < 5, 'ColumnA'] *= 6 #you always need to specify both row and column selectors, use : to mean everything my_df[:, 'ColumnB'] = my_df[:,'ColumnA'] + my_df[:, 'ColumnC'] #let's take every row that starts with Shu in ColumnA and replace it with a new list (comprehension) select = my_df.where(lambda row: row['ColumnA'].startswith('Shu')) my_df[select, 'ColumnA'] = [row['ColumnA'].replace('Shu', 'Sha') for row in my_df[select,:].iter_rows()]
Dataframes talk directly to R via rpy2 (rpy2 is not a prerequiste for the library!)
(2) pandas http://pandas.pydata.org/
Library Highlights
- A fast and efficient DataFrame object for data manipulation with integrated indexing;
- Tools for reading and writing data between in-memory data structures and different formats: CSV and text files, Microsoft Excel, SQL databases, and the fast HDF5 format;
- Intelligent data alignment and integrated handling of missing data: gain automatic label-based alignment in computations and easily manipulate messy data into an orderly form;
- Flexible reshaping and pivoting of data sets;
- Intelligent label-based slicing, fancy indexing, and subsetting of large data sets;
- Columns can be inserted and deleted from data structures for size mutability;
- Aggregating or transforming data with a powerful group by engine allowing split-apply-combine operations on data sets;
- High performance merging and joining of data sets;
- Hierarchical axis indexing provides an intuitive way of working with high-dimensional data in a lower-dimensional data structure;
- Time series-functionality: date range generation and frequency conversion, moving window statistics, moving window linear regressions, date shifting and lagging. Even create domain-specific time offsets and join time series without losing data;
- The library has been ruthlessly optimized for performance, with critical code paths compiled to C;
- Python with pandas is in use in a wide variety of academic and commercial domains, including Finance, Neuroscience, Economics, Statistics, Advertising, Web Analytics, and more.
Why not R?
First of all, we love open source R! It is the most widely-used open source environment for statistical modeling and graphics, and it provided some early inspiration for pandas features. R users will be pleased to find this library adopts some of the best concepts of R, like the foundational DataFrame (one user familiar with R has described pandas as "R data.frame on steroids"). But pandas also seeks to solve some frustrations common to R users:
- R has barebones data alignment and indexing functionality, leaving much work to the user. pandas makes it easy and intuitive to work with messy, irregularly indexed data, like time series data. pandas also provides rich tools, like hierarchical indexing, not found in R;
- R is not well-suited to general purpose programming and system development. pandas enables you to do large-scale data processing seamlessly when developing your production applications;
- Hybrid systems connecting R to a low-productivity systems language like Java, C++, or C# suffer from significantly reduced agility and maintainability, and you're still stuck developing the system components in a low-productivity language;
- The "copyleft" GPL license of R can create concerns for commercial software vendors who want to distribute R with their software under another license. Python and pandas use more permissive licenses.
(3) datamatrix http://pypi.python.org/pypi/datamatrix/0.8
datamatrix 0.8
A Pythonic implementation of R's data.frame structure.
Latest Version: 0.9
This module allows access to comma- or other delimiter separated files as if they were tables, using a dictionary-like syntax. DataMatrix objects can be manipulated, rows and columns added and removed, or even transposed

When ABC's Jake Tapper asked about what Americans must give up to make reform happen, the president replied: "They're going to have to give up paying for things that don't make them healthier. And I—speaking as an American, I think that's the kind of change you want." Then Obama's answer dissolved into a long discourse on doctors and hospitals not doing enough to coordinate care, and how that adds to premium costs. He talked about the deficit, and how his administration would continue its efforts to reduce it by eliminating waste in the system, like the F-22 weapons program.
Other than a question about obtaining a list of health care execs who've visited the White House, there were no questions and no words about the special interests swarming over Congress. In the past, the president used his national bully pulpit to rail against them. More astonishing was the lack of questions or remarks about the Massachusetts health plan, the model for the legislation coming out of Congress. The plan has run into serious financial trouble, which has caused state officials to drop some people from subsidized coverage. Even though the president mentioned that preventative care like check-ups and mammograms save lives and money, no reporter challenged the assertion about saving money. As Campaign Desk has shown, that would have been an easy one to push back on.
And there wasn't much talk about the controversial public plan—no details on whether everyone could use it, or whether it would pay doctors rates similar to Medicare, which would help deliver its presumed cost advantage. Only near the end of the conference, in response to a question from Cleveland Plain Dealer reporter Steve Koff, did the public plan come up. The president repeated what he has said before: a public option would "help keep the insurance companies honest."
For the most part, the press didn't push hard enough. Perhaps that's because of the constraints set by a presidential press conference. There isn't much opportunity for follow-up questions; and, after all, if your intitial question is too tough, you won't be invited to ask one the next time. But the press still has another chance. Reporters can bone up on what they didn't ask this time, and try for the nuances and particulars at the next one. Or they can use the conference as a starting point, and tell their own stories about what the president did not say.

OLYMPIA - If this is an emergency, why is the state still spending money for art projects in the prisons, Sen. Mike Carrell, R, asked. Why spend $2 million on art for the Seattle tunnel
Sen. Rosa Franklin, D-Tacoma:"We have heard a lot this afternoon about the will of the people. The will of the people also has to have compassion in it…Grandma does not deal in metrics and the lingo of today. She doesn't deal in Twitter. The services she is receiving will be eliminated or cut drastically. She is scared…I promised grandma that my vote will be for her. I told the kids education is important and they should stay in school. I will not throw them under the bus, I will put them on the bus."
Sen. Pam Roach R-Auburn: "I'm a grandma, and I don't want to have my taxes raised. Taxes are going to be going up in a variey of ways. Grandmothers run those shops. ..Right now things aren't good and we will be further depressing the economy. More taxes will not help this economy…We need to do what the people are telling us to do, and that means restructuring…It means being creative, not doing things the way we've always done. I'm a grandma and I'm not voting for this bill."
Sen. Jeanne Kohl-Wells, D-Seattle: "I'm a grandmother and I am voting for this bill. If we don't want to amend laws, why do we even have a Legislature? Many bills have amended initiatives. 67 percent of the voters approved an increase to the state minimum wage, three of them last year. 68 percent of voters approved medical marijuana, we've had bills to change that… Republicans and Democrats introduce bills …to amend initatives brought forward by the vote of the people. All of these statements about going against the will of the people are spurious."

Utility worker saves ducks from storm drain in Daytona Beach
On his birthday, a city worker climbed into a storm drain to save some stuck baby ducks.
The city received calls from residents of a Daytona Beach apartment complex about the noisy neighbors. They weren't complaining, they were worried about the quacking ducks.
Utility Service worker Ricky Mason pulled the cover from the drain and stepped down 4 feet to pull the three ducklings to safety.
"On my birthday," Mason said. "(It) feels great."
The baby ducks, and their mother, live in a retention pond about 20 yards from the drain.
Officers hand carried two of the ducks back to the pond, but one waddled home on its own.

Seattle arena architects promise to be 'good neighbor'on November 28, 2012 @ 7:20 am (Updated: 9:36 am - 11/28/12 )
The Seattle Times reports Brad Schrock, senior principal for 360 Architecture, told a city Design Review Board Tuesday night that the new facility proposed by investor Chris Hansen will be unique and won't be like many generic arenas built in other cities.
"We're doing everything we can to encourage connection on all sides of the building so it becomes a gateway and a beacon," Schrock told the panel.
Architects on the team told the board they're planning a design that allows fans to see views of landmarks like Mount Rainier and the waterfront from the new building.
They also addressed the board's questions about pedestrian access, especially over the nearby train tracks. The architects said they're planning a number of connections along with a restaurant or bar to make the area pedestrian friendly.
The design team released its first conceptual drawings earlier this month showing some general ideas of what an arena in the area might look like. The firm is expected to give a first look at detailed architectural drawings on Friday, Nov. 28.
The design review is just one step in what's expected to be a year-long process before approval is granted to start work on the proposed $490 million, 725,000-square-foot-arena.

7 Ways The Obama Administration Has Accelerated Police Militarization
There were signs that President Barack Obama might rein in the mass militarization of America's police forces after he won the White House. Policing is primarily a local issue, overseen by local authorities. But beginning in the late 1960s with President Richard Nixon, the federal government began instituting policies that gave federal authorities more power to fight the drug trade, and to lure state and local policymakers into the anti-crime agenda of the administration in charge. These policies got a boost during Ronald Reagan's presidency, and then another during President Bill Clinton's years. Under President George W. Bush, all of those anti-drug policies continued, but were supplemented by new war on terrorism endeavors -- yet more efforts to make America's cops look, act and fight like soldiers. But Obama might have been different. This, after all, was the man who, as a candidate for the U.S. Senate in 2004, declared the war on drugs an utter failure. As Reason magazine's Jacob Sullum wrote in a 2011 critique of Obama's drug policy: Obama stood apart from hard-line prohibitionists even when he began running for president. In 2007 and 2008, he bemoaned Americas high incarceration rate, warned that the racially disproportionate impact of drug prohibition undermines legal equality, advocated a public health approach to drugs emphasizing treatment and training instead of prison, repeatedly indicated that he would take a more tolerant position regarding medical marijuana than George W. Bush, and criticized the Bush administration for twisting science to support policy -- a tendency that is nowhere more blatant than in the governments arbitrary distinctions among psychoactive substances. Indeed, in his first interview after taking office, Obama's drug czar, Gil Kerlikowske, said that the administration would be toning down the martial rhetoric that had dominated federal drug policy since the Nixon years. "Regardless of how you try to explain to people it's a 'war on drugs' or a 'war on a product,' people see a war as a war on them," Kerlikowske told The Wall Street Journal. "We're not at war with people in this country." This was an notable break from previous administrations. Rhetoric does matter, and for a generation in the U.S., cops had incessantly been told that they were in a war with drug offenders -- this, in a country where about half the adult population admits to having smoked marijuana. Unfortunately, while not insignificant, the change in rhetoric has largely been only that. The Obama administration may no longer call it a "war," but there's no question that the White House is continuing to fight one. Here's a quick rundown of where and how Obama's policies have perpetuated the garrison state: (Huffington Post)

Sandy Hook School Massacre Timeline
The following timeline of the December 14 mass killing of 20 children and 8 adults in Newtown Connecticut attempts to demonstrate how the event was presented to the public by corporate news media. The chronological assemblage of coverage is not comprehensive of all reports published on the incident but rather seeks to verify how the storyline was to a substantial degree constructed by federal and state law enforcement authorities and major media around the theory that 20-year-old Adam Lanza was the sole agent in the massacre. This scenario became an established reality through the news medias pronounced repetition of the lone gunman narrative and meme. This proposed scenario significantly obscured the fact that police encountered and apprehended two additional shooting suspects on the schools grounds within minutes of the crime. These suspects remain unaccounted for by authorities but the roles they may have played arguably correlate with the shifting information presented by authorities and major news media on injuries and weapons vis-à-vis the mass carnage meted out in the school. While the certain detainment of additional suspects was pointed to by alternative news media, including Natural News, Infowars, Veterans Today and Global Research in the days following the tragedy, the untenable lone gunman narrative has become firmly established in the public psyche via an overwhelming chorus of corporate media reports and interpretations.

"Yes, there are a few dangerous nuts in Brooklyn and New Jersey who want to blow up Kennedy Airport and Fort Dix. These are dangerous criminals, and we must deal with them. But come on, this is not a threat to our survival! The only thing that can really destroy us is us. We shouldn't do it to ourselves, and we shouldn't use fear for political purposesscaring people to death so they will vote for you, or scaring people to death so that we create a terror-industrial complex."

Building a North American Community
Report of an Independent Task Force; Sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations with the Canadian Council of Chief Executives and the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionales - Americas relationship with its North American neighbors rarely gets the attention it warrants. This report of a Council-sponsored Indepen- dent Task Force on the Future of North America is intended to help address this policy gap. In the more than a decade since the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) took effect, ties among Canada, Mexico, and the United States have deepened dramatically. The value of trade within North America has more than doubled. Canada and Mexico are now the two largest exporters of oil, natural gas, and electricity to the United States. Since 9/11, we are not only one anothers major commercial partners, we are joined in an effort to make North America less vulnerable to terrorist attack. This report examines these and other changes that have taken place since NAFTAs inception and makes recommendations to address the range of issues confronting North American policymakers today: greater economic competition from outside North America, uneven develop- ment within North America, the growing demand for energy, and threats to our borders. The Task Force offers a detailed and ambitious set of proposals that build on the recommendations adopted by the three governments at the Texas summit of March 2005. The Task Forces central recommen- dation is establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community, the boundaries of which would be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter. - More than a decade ago NAFTA took effect, liberalizing trade and investment, providing crucial protection for intellectual property, creating pioneering dispute-resolution mechanisms, and establishing the first regional devices to safeguard labor and environmental standards. NAFTA helped unlock the regions economic potential and demon- strated that nations at different levels of development can prosper from the opportunities created by reciprocal free trade arrangements. Since then, however, global commercial competition has grown more intense and international terrorism has emerged as a serious regional and global danger. Deepening ties among the three countries of North America promise continued benefits for Canada, Mexico, and the United States. That said, the trajectory toward a more integrated and prosperous North America is neither inevitable nor irreversible. In March 2005, the leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States adopted a Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), establishing ministerial-level working groups to address key secu- rity and economic issues facing North America and setting a short deadline for reporting progress back to their governments. President Bush described the significance of the SPP as putting forward a common commitment to markets and democracy, freedom and trade, and mutual prosperity and security. The policy framework articulated by the three leaders is a significant commitment that will benefit from broad discussion and advice. The Task Force is pleased to provide specific advice on how the partnership can be pursued and realized. To that end, the Task Force proposes the creation by 2010 of a North American community to enhance security, prosperity, and opportunity. We propose a community based on the principle affirmed in the March 2005 Joint Statement of the three leaders that our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary. Its boundaries will be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter within which the movement of people, products, and capital will be legal, orderly, and safe. Its goal will be to guarantee a free, secure, just, and prosperous North America. - A North American Advisory Council. To ensure a regular injection of creative energy into the various efforts related to North American integration, the three governments should appoint an independent body of advisers. This body should be composed of eminent persons from outside government, appointed to staggered multiyear terms to ensure their independence. Their mandate would be to engage in creative exploration of new ideas from a North American perspective and to provide a public voice for North America. A complementary approach would be to establish private bodies that would meet regularly or annually to buttress North American relationships, along the lines of the Bilderberg or Wehrkunde conferences, organized to support transatlantic relations.

Abrasives maker U.S. Minerals has paid its $700,000 federal fine in full and has complied fully with the terms of its summer settlement with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, OSHA said Thursday (Dec. 13), correcting an error from the day before.
The Dyer, IN-based company, one of the largest U.S. producers of coal slag products, paid the penalties to resolve eight cases that unfolded throughout 2010 at its four plants in Texas, Illinois and Louisiana.
U.S. Minerals has abated all 141 cited violations, OSHA said.
The fine—reduced from more than $1.5 million—and other terms were the subject of a lengthy settlement agreement that U.S. Minerals signed in August with OSHA. The cases comprised a total of 141 willful, repeat, serious and other-than-serious citations involving respiratory protection and other health and safety violations.
The 27-page agreement was reported in Thursday's PaintSquare News.
However, contrary to a statement by OSHA in that report, the company has paid its fine in full, agency spokesman Scott Allen said late Thursday.
Settlement Terms and Compliance
Allen blamed a "miscommunication" among OSHA's area offices for reporting erroneously earlier that U.S. Minerals had not paid its penalty. He apologized for the error.
Allen also said that U.S. Minerals had complied in full with the other detailed, rigorous requirements of the settlement.
U.S. Minerals manufactures Black Magnum Coal Slag Abrasives and other products.
Those requirements include:
"We're pleased at the cooperation U.S. Minerals has been providing," Allen said. "We consider the case closed."
Comment from James Johnson, (12/14/2012, 11:27 AM)
This is the expected result from a company that is faced with a government agency that has all the time, all the power and all the money, particularly when that agency knows they will never be allowed to defend themselves in a court of law or be judged by a jury of their peers.

Another case of the infected HD
November 12th, 2007 by noam, Filed under: Commentary, Corporate Security, Microsoft
A second event of malware infected HD has been discovered, this the second time it has happened in 4 months. The HD are part of "about 1,800 brand new 300-GB or 500-GB external hard drives made for Maxtor in Thailand" that include an autorun.inf file that will execute as soon as the disk is placed into the computer.
More details on the background can be found here and a bit more details on the origin can be read here.
In the old days this wouldn't have happened as disks were "factory formatted" – requiring you to do a low-level format to start working with them, or at least partition them before use and they weren't pre-formatted or even contained data on them.
P.S of course Windows is the only operating system that will get infected – Linux or MacOS won't care about the presence of the autorun.inf file (or the ghost.pif file that is launched by it).
