Bill Maher, the biggest fraud in political discourse, recently opened his mouth to spew forth more ill-informed rhetoric. More than merely being his usual, unintelligent banter, however, his diatribe against the Tea Party took a turn towards racism as he claimed that black people don't have voter IDs because they're poor and take the bus. Of course, the liberal media has remained quiet on his racist rhetoric, saving up energy in the hope that one day they can actually prove that somewhere, someone on the right said something racist.
On HuffPost Live on Tuesday on the liberal blog, Maher ran off at the mouth about several things he was ill-equipped to discuss. One of which, however, was offensive on several different levels. Maher said,
"So it's crazy, but obviously Republicans, because they love the country and because the Constitution, they ask themselves what is that thing that maybe black people can't get to? What do we have that they don't have? Well, they take the bus because they're poor. So they don't have a car. They don't need a picture ID. You know, Tagg Romney doesn't have this problem. He has a picture ID."
Incredible. Where's Jesse Jackson, the self-appointed representative of the black population? Surely Al Sharpton can make an appearance somewhere and do what he does best and cry out racism!… Not a peep…
I don't typically deal in counterfactuals, but this one is an easy one: how do you think the media would react if Glenn Beck said that blacks don't have voter IDs because they're poor and ride the bus?
What if Paul Ryan had declared to a mixed-race crowd that not voting for him would put them back in chains? I can confidently say that the left would go nuts. We, on the right, would be called every name in the book and the left would jump for joy in the knowledge that they had finally done it; they caught racism.
But racism coming from the mouth of the a leftist like Maher is totally fine. And Crazy Joe Biden? Naw, he means well. So he gets a pass, too.
Now, bear in mind that I am not advocating that the race card needs to be played- I am only saying that it gets played frequently to discredit those on the right. If we are to have legitimate political discussion, we need to be able to speak freely. And in the absence of such freedom, at least be allowed to all play by the same rules. Allowing one ideology to spout off racist generalizations and historically insensitive comments while chastising the right whenever matters of race are discussed is unfair and ridiculous.
Of course, this isn't Maher's first time dabbling in racism. Earlier this year, while discussing black Republican Florida Congressman Allen West, Maher referred to the Republican Party as the "party of apes" and said,
"Or take Allen West. Seriously, take him to the padded cell and give him 20 CCs of the high test. Ornstein and Mann start off their Post op-ed by noting that recently Rep. Allen West said that there are '78 to 81′ Democrats in Congress who are members of the Communist Party. And not one Republican said, 'Allen, come on. You're making us look dumb.' Not one of the Republican candidates for president said anything. Because in today's Republican Party, that's not even edgy anymore. They probably saw him later on and were like, 'Word, Allen. Word.' Because that's how they think black people talk."
But don't worry, his disdain for the black community transcends party lines. Discussing President Obama, Maher stated,
"I thought when we elected a black president, we were going to get a black president. You know, this [BP oil spill] is where I want a real black president. I want him in a meeting with the BP CEOs, you know, where he lifts up his shirt so you can see the gun in his pants. That's — (in an urban voice) 'we've got a motherfu**ing problem here?' Shoot somebody in the foot."
I said then as I say now: I don't condemn Maher for having an opinion. I think he's wrong and immature, but he's welcome to open his mouth and let the whole world know he's a racist. I do, however, reject the left's hypocrisy in not only, at times, being complicit in spouting racist ideas, but also the bystanders in the media that purposefully give them a pass, but pounce on the right for even perceived insensitivity.
Remember when Donald Trump had the audacity to question if whether or not Obama had been born in America? He was called a racist by nearly everyone in the media. For what? For asking a question about our president, about whose early years we know virtually nothing about because he won't stop re-engineering his story?
Or what about later, when Trump wanted to see Obama's grades? As that served as his substitute for his lackluster sojourn in the Senate, it seemed appropriate. But not to CBS anchor Bob Schieffer, who said,
"He said we need to look at his grades and see if he — he was a good enough student to get into Harvard Law School. That's just code for saying he got into law school because he's black. This is an ugly strain of racism that's running through this whole thing."
While I am not shocked in the least to see Maher and the rest of the liberal media not practice what they preach, I will admit that for too long, Tea Partiers have remained silent and allowed the narrative to spin out of control. For too long, reckless accusations of low character and racism have been lobbed at the right. Most of us have been too busy working and living our lives to pay much attention to the disgusting things said about us. But now, we must awaken to point out the gaping holes in logic and the fabrication of a narrative by the left that must be countered. We must further insist that the rules of discourse are the same for all involved.

'Merkel and Hollande will do anything to save euro' [RT]
May 16, 2012 Leave a comment
Despite their major differences, France's newly-elected leader, François Hollande, and his German counterpart, Angela Merkel, have shown signs that compromise between the eurozone's largest economies is possible.
Hollande met with Merkel in Berlin on his first trip as president on Tuesday to discuss proposals for generating economic growth in Europe. He set off immediately after his inauguration but the trip did not go smoothly as his plane was struck by lightning, forcing him to return to Paris to change planes.
As RT's Peter Oliver reports from the German capital, there were no real political bombshells at the meeting, though the two did not try to cover up their differences.
The socialist Hollande once again stressed his commitment to growth as opposed to the conservative Merkel's austerity-led approach to tackling Europe's debt crisis. He said that everything that could promote growth in Europe must be put on the table by everyone.
During his presidential campaign, he also called for the European budget-discipline pact pushed by Merkel to be renegotiated. When asked if he still demands renegotiation, he said he would be able to answer the question "at the end of this work."
Merkel, who backed then-president Nicolas Sarkozy in the French elections, has argued that growth needs to be generated by structural reform instead of relying on greater government spending.
However, she said that her differences with Hollande have been overplayed. "We are aware of our responsibility, as Germany and France, for good development in Europe," Merkel said. "Carried by this spirit, I believe we will of course find solutions to the different problems."
Hollande said he wants to work with Germany"for the good of Europe" and that he envisions "a balanced and respectful relationship."

Figure 1: Example for creating a new catalogue data release using the Phase 3 Release Manager.
Instructions for catalogue data submission
The Phase 3 process for catalogues is based on the same tools and concepts as the submission and release of other data products types. The Release Manager allows the PI to define data collections and releases, to manage Phase 3 delegation to co-investigators and, finally, to 'close' the submission.
The ESO Phase 3 User Guide, which documents the usage of the Release Manager in a step-by-step fashion, generally applies to catalogue data submission. The following section illustrates the implementation of the Phase 3 concepts of data collection and data release with regard to science catalogue data and provides specific guidelines.
Phase 3 data collection and release
Each catalogue is represented by one and only one Phase 3 data collection. Therefore, for each new catalogue to be submitted, a dedicated Phase 3 data collection must be defined using the Phase 3 Release Manager. In this step, the data provider is prompted to enter name and title of the data collection, which refers to the catalogue in this case (Figure 1).
Subsequent submissions extending or revising an existing catalogue need to be submitted as a further data release to the same data collection to ensure consistent management of versions including the proper automatic tagging.
Catalogue name
The catalogue name is identical to the Phase 3 data collection name. This name is a string identifier, which must be defined as Phase 3 data collection name by the data provider before starting the first data submission. This determines the corresponding directory on the Phase 3 FTP server where the data then need to be transferred to. The name cannot be modified later. The catalogue name is used to define catalogue data links (see, e.g., §184.108.40.206, Data Products Standard, Issue 3).
The catalogue name is a character string composed of upper-case letters (A–Z), digits (0–9), and the underscore ('_', decimal 95, hexadecimal 5F) character. Spaces are not allowed. The string should have between 5 and 20 characters. Specifically, the string shall match the (Perl) regular expression: ^[A-Z_][A-Z0-9_]{4,19}$. This constraint is validated by the system when a new Phase 3 data collection is created using the Release Manager.
Because the catalogue/collection name is employed as unique identifier in the context of the Phase 3 system, not just in the context of your Phase 3 programme, names should be sufficiently specific. Therefore, for instance, the name VIDEO_CDFS_CAT should be preferred over just CDFS_CAT. It is generally a good idea to prepend the catalogue/collection name with the (abbreviated) programme name.
Subsequent versions of a given catalogue share the same name, i.e. the combination of catalogue name and catalogue version number (see below) uniquely identifies each catalogue instance stored in the ESO archive. For this reason the catalogue name, and Phase 3 data collection name in general, should not contain a number indicating its version. See Table 1 for examples.
Catalogue Title
The catalogue title is identical to the Phase 3 data collection title. Analogous to the name, the title for the Phase 3 data collection is defined by the data provider before starting the first data submission.
The title allows for a brief significant text description of the content with a maximum length of 68 characters. It is used for display purposes in the context of the entire ESO Science Archive, not just in the context of your Phase 3 programme. Subsequent versions of a given catalogue/collection share the same title (as well as the name). Therefore, the Phase 3 catalogue/collection title should not contain any number indicating the data release version either. The Phase 3 support scientist (ESO/ASG) may modify the PI-provided title of a Phase 3 data collection/catalogue with regard to the overall alignment across the ESO Science Archive.
Catalogue Release number
The catalogue release number is identical to the Phase 3 data release number, sometimes also referred to as "release tag". The Phase 3 Release Manager automatically generates this index, numbering subsequent versions of the catalogue/data collection, when the Phase 3 user creates a new data release.
The catalogue release number is required to define catalogues data links (§126.96.36.199, Data Products Standard, Issue 3).

Babydoll Nighties. Where Sleepwear Meets Lingerie.
Once upon a time nightgowns were primarily designed to keep women warm and comfortable in bed. Over time, as beds became more comfortable and the temperature of bedrooms became more controllable the practical element of nightwear became less important and it was replaced by the aesthetic element . Nightwear increasingly began to be about dressing up and looking your best even in bed. How it looked became as important as how it felt. Nightgowns became shorter and turned into nighties. Elements of men's sleepwear were adopted and women's pajamas were born. All sorts of intimate apparel and lingerie were adapted or taken on as they were for use in the bedroom.
The babydoll is a classic example of these crossover styles as it is somewhere between a nightie and a piece of lingerie. The basic babydoll is a simple, short loose garment that hangs from small straps and reaches down to the hips. It can be made from any light material and decorated with all the usual feminine trimmings. From this basic design it can be worked into a simple short nightie or an exotic piece of lingerie.
The name babydoll comes from the 1956 movie of the same name (although it was spelt Baby Doll). The movie starred Carroll Baker in the title role as a 19 year old nymphet who sleeps in childish shortie nighties of this style and is a figure of lust for the men in the movie. The babydoll has remained popular ever since with the movie contributing greatly to the styles current erotic appeal. To this day, babydoll nightdresses are seen as exciting, erotic and tempting nightwear and are often explicitly marketed as such.
While many babydolls really are only short nighties and make comfortable and cool sleepwear, there are just as many that have been developed into fancier sensual and sexual styles. These are very often shorter exposing the legs and even the buttocks, in which case they are usually sold as babydoll sets with matching panties. They may also expose much more of the breast or incorporate bralets or cups to enhance the bust. Open babydolls which are split or buttoned up the middle are also available in this vein. The more erotic styles can be made from sheer, see-through or luxury materials and are very often decorated with fancy lace and other trimmings.
Despite their barely there nature, the basic erotic babydoll can be worn by women of many different shapes and sizes and retain its allure. Sizing is not important and it is possible to get specialist petite babydolls and plus size babydolls. The trick is to choose one that highlights and flatters your individual body shape. By paying attention to shape, color and embellishments it is always possible to draw the eye to those parts of your body that you feel happiest about.
Babydolls are an essential item in any woman's wardrobe. As short nighties they are great for staying cool on hot nights. And as exciting lingerie they are great for heating up nights too. Most of all, they are great fun for dressing up in.

Generic Ovestin Cream is used in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) in women. It contains Estriol. Estriol (also known as oestriol) is one of the three main female hormones, called oestrogens, produced by the human body. During and after menopause the oestrogen production by the body decreases. The decrease in Estriol production may lead to hot flushes, vaginal irritation, recurrent urinary tract infections and urinary incontinence. Generic Ovestin Cream is usually prescribed for the loss of oestrogen production by the body. After Estriol Vaginal Cream is inserted into the vagina, oestriol is slowly released and absorbed into the surrounding area and even into the bloodstream.
Estriol Vaginal Cream substitutes for the loss of oestrogen production in menopausal women and alleviates menopausal symptoms. Oestriol is particularly effective in the treatment of urogenital symptoms such as dyspareunia, dryness, itching, vaginal and urinary infections, micturition complaints and mild urinary incontinence.
Generic Ovestin Cream is available as Estriol Vaginal Cream (Evalon Vaginal Cream) which is packaged in tubes of 15 grams.
Estriol Vaginal Cream, like most other medications, can also cause side effects. Generic Ovestin may occasionally cause side effects that are dependent on dosage and the sensitivity of the individual patient. The most common side effects include local irritation or itching, swelling and increased tenderness of the breasts. In most patients these side effects will disappear after the first weeks of treatment. Inform you doctor immediately if vaginal bleeding occurs, or if any side effect becomes troublesome or continues.
Other side-effects which may occur with Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) are: Benign and malignant hormone-dependent tumours such as breast cancer and endometrial cancer, venous thromboembolism or deep leg or pelvic venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism , heart attack and stroke, gall bladder disease, skin problems such as rashes, discolouration or red patches on the skin various skin diseases with blisters and nodules or bleeding into the skin. Using HRT for several years slightly increases the risk of breast cancer and dementia .
Overdosage occurrence with Generic Ovestin cream after vaginal administration is unlikely. In cases where where large quantities are ingested, nausea, vomiting and withdrawal bleeding in females may occur. Symptomatic treatment can be given if necessary.
Estriol Vaginal Cream (Generic Ovestin) is contraindicated in individuals that:
The normally recommended dosage is 1 application of Estriol Vaginal Cream per day for the first weeks, followed by a gradual reduction, based on relief of symptoms, until a maintenance dosage (e.g. 1 application twice a week) is reached.

Hi there, Dr. Lam,
I got my first ever rhinoplasty 2 years and 2 months ago (Oct 2008). All the surgeon did was insert a silicone L-shaped implant in and he said that would create a narrowing effect to my nose. It shifted to the right pretty quickly (maybe it wasn't even equal in the first place), but the shift became more noticeable over time.
I had the silicone L-shaped implant taken out 1 month ago because of this and because I just wanted a narrower nose. So I got an alar base reduction and some tip work with ear cartilage. The surgeon also replaced the silicone with ear cartilage wrapped in fascia from my scalp. I'm not quite sure why he didn't use septal cartilage. I heard that was the best material...if I only had a silicone implant put in the first time, shouldn't I have enough cartilage left from my septum?
The only thing I liked after the first surgery was done was the nice definition on my bridge, even from front view. From what I remember the first surgeon said he gave me the "2nd longest, but the one with the most projection" or something like that for the size of the implant from a catalog.
Right now, I am 1 month post-op but I do not see any definition at all. The transition between my nasal bone and the ear cartilage dorsal graft seems too obtuse and there is no distinguishable edges especially at front view. Also, my nose is crooked and skewed. Do you think there will be more definition over time or am I stuck with a blob for my nose? I went to a rhinoplasty specialist for this, that is why I am so disappointed that my results look nothing like what his before & afters look like so far.
I am concerned about lack of support and that maybe it is not just as simple as swelling and healing that is causing it to look this way. Also, I think the part of where the bridge meets the nasal base has something of what I describe as "loose skin" on the sides that is making my nose look even rounder and lacking definition.
It is really funny because my surgeon sounded very satisfied right after surgery and he said that I will have a beautiful nose. He also claimed that all areas of my nose will become more defined with time. I have yet to see any "beauty" in my nose right now.
Thank you.

|Outlook Client Version Report
Clients will always get the best experience using the latest version of Office, currently Office 2013 SP1. The best practice is to always update your clients with the latest cumulative update prior to migration. this is especially true when you're migrating to Office 365, since most updates pertain to Office 365, Exchange Online, and Exchange 2013 compatibility.
If you find that you need to upgrade clients to a new version of Office, I recommend that you install the x86 version of Office to provide the best compatibility with add-ons and third-party products. Some customers think they need to install Office x64 on Windows x64 operating systems, but that's not the case. See 64-bit editions of Office 2013 for details on when it makes sense to install Office x64.
If you're an Office 365 customer, I strongly recommend checking out using the Office 2013 ProPlus software deployment that's most likely part of your Enterprise license. This version of Office 2013 can be installed on up to 5 PCs, iPads, tablets, etc. and is always up-to-date since it's a cloud-managed service.

Supermodel Cindy Crawford is a stone fox at 48, thanks to a sensible low carb diet and regular exercise that includes Pilates, yoga and circuit-training workouts.
So it's no surprise Crawford is planning to release a health and fitness book this fall, where she'll reveal her age-defying beauty, diet and workout secrets.
"It'll come out in the fall before I turn 50, so it's kind of a way to celebrate turning 50 as opposed to dreading it," Cindy told Vogue.
Crawford maintains her stunning physique by following a healthy, low-carb diet and working out three to four times a week. The athletic mom of two said she eats well to be healthy, not just to be skinny. Cindy also indulges her guilty pleasures, which include dark chocolate.
"I love chocolate and I have some every day," she said. "I like to get the Dagoba Chocodrops that are 74 percent cacao. I like that they are chip-sized, so a small handful satisfies."
Cindy said her workouts typically include cardio exercise such as running, spinning, stair-climbing, and hiking. She also does Pilates, yoga, lifts weights, and circuit-trains. Crawford mixes up her workouts to keep from getting bored and to make sure she works her entire body.
Crawford, who has her own successful skincare line, Meaningful Beauty, admits she's terrified of turning 50, but has learned to embrace aging. "Beauty changes as I get older," she said. "I've always found that beauty and confidence are synonymous. If you feel confident, that's what people see. I always tell people to fake it until they make it."
Crawford, who admits to having undergone a few cosmetic procedures (including Botox), said consistent exercise, eating well, and having a positive attitude are critical for successful aging and authentic happiness.
"My goal in life is not to be happy all the time," she said. "That's asking a lot. I just want to be present so I can experience whatever emotion is there. Sometimes it's joy, sometimes it's not joy, and I'm fine with that. I just want to be real."

Violence in Afghanistan has spiked to its highest levels since the fall of the Taliban in 2001, the general in charge of US forces in the Middle East and Central Asia says.
General David Patraeus, the head of US Central Command, said the number of attacks in the country spiked to its highest point last week, and he predicted that the trend was very likely to continue.
"The past week was the highest level of security incidents in Afghanistan's history, at least that post-liberation history," Petraeus told a forum in Washington DC on Thursday.
"There are some tough months ahead. Some of this [violence] will go up because we are going to go after their sanctuaries and their safe havens as we must," he said.
Attacks soared by 59 per cent to 5,222 incidents from January to May, compared with 3,283 attacks in the first five months of 2008, according to US military officials and excerpts of a report by Nato's International Security Assistance Force (Isaf).
There were 1,450 attacks in May, according to Isaf, surpassing the 1,400-mark for only the second time since January 2007. The last time monthly attacks topped 1,400 was last August.
More troops, more violence
The US president is pouring thousands more troops into Afghanistan as part of a larger strategy to roll back Taliban influence and stabilise the war-torn nation.
Petraeus, who formerly commanded US troops in Iraq, is overseeing the military portion of the Obama strategy.
The US has already increased its military presence in Afghanistan to 56,000 troops, from about 32,000 in late 2008, and Petraeus said he expects to see a total 68,000 troops in the war zone in the second half of this year.
Analysts have warned that the Obama strategy could lead to sharply higher US casualty rates, potentially diminishing support for the war at home as members of congress head into mid-term elections in 2010.
Military officials blame the increase partly on a mild winter, which allowed Taliban and other fighters to cross freely into Afghanistan from havens in Pakistan.
But rising violence was also driven by heightened Nato and Afghan military operations, which increased by about one-third from January to May, Isaf said.
Civilian deaths
Meanwhile, the US military has launched an investigation into claims that civilians were killed in an air raid in Afghanistan's western Ghor province.
The US military said the attack was aimed at Mullah Mustafa, an alleged Taliban commander.
It initially claimed to have killed him, but said in a statement on Thursday that "credible reports surfaced that Mustafa survived the attack".
"A thorough review of intelligence and surveillance supports initial reports that all killed in the strikes were legitimate enemy targets," the statement said.
"In addition, we are working closely with Afghan partners to investigate unconfirmed reports of civilians among Mustafa's party."

Can the light be turned off at the fixture itself. Description says there is a full dimmer...does it go to the off position?
ATG Stores Answer
Yes the switch at the bottom of the fixture would be the on off switch for you as well as the dimmer. It would click into the off position. Hope this helps and have a great day.

Rodriguez v. Sony Computer Entertainment America, LLC
Filing 59
ORDER by Judge Hamilton Granting 36 Motion to Dismiss (pjhlc2, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 4/20/2012)
1 2 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 4 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 5 6 7 DANIEL RODRIGUEZ, 8 Plaintiff, No. C 11-4084 PJH 9 v. ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO DISMISS 11 For the Northern District of California United States District Court 10 SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT AMERICA LLC, et al., 12 Defendants. _______________________________/ 13 14 Defendants' motion to dismiss plaintiff's first amended class action complaint came 15 on for hearing before this court on April 18, 2012. Plaintiff Daniel Rodriguez ("plaintiff") 16 appeared through his counsel, Rafey Balabanian and Ari Scharg. Defendants Sony 17 Computer Entertainment America LLC ("SCEA") and Sony Network Entertainment 18 International LLC ("SNEI") (collectively "defendants") appeared through their counsel, 19 Michael Rhodes and Ray Sardo. Having read all the papers submitted and carefully 20 considered the relevant legal authority, the court hereby GRANTS defendants' motion, for 21 the reasons stated at the hearing, and summarized as follows: 22 1. To the extent plaintiff's claim under the Video Privacy Protection Act ("VPPA), 23 see 18 U.S.C. § 2710, is premised on a claim for unlawful retention of plaintiff's personally 24 identifiable information ("PII"), the VPPA precludes claims premised solely on a defendant's 25 allegedly unauthorized "retention" of information. See, e.g., Sterk v. Redbox Automated 26 Retail, LLC, 672 F.3d 535 (7th Cir. 2012)(holding that plaintiff may only sue for damages 27 under the VPPA for unlawful "disclosure" of PII, not for the purportedly unlawful "retention" 28 of PII). Thus, defendants' motion to dismiss plaintiff's "retention" claim under the VPPA is 1 2 GRANTED, and such a claim is DISMISSED, with prejudice. 2. Plaintiff's remaining claim for unlawful disclosure under the VPPA also fails to 3 state a viable claim for relief. Plaintiff's claim is premised on two alleged disclosures: (a) an 4 allegedly unauthorized disclosure made by SCEA to SNEI in connection with the transfer of 5 certain SCEA's assets to SNEI; and (b) an allegedly unauthorized disclosure to DOE 6 defendants that subsequently took place in connection with SNEI's use and/or disclosure of 7 plaintiff's PII for marketing and advertising purposes. See FAC, ¶¶ 45-46, 63, 73-74. As to 8 the former disclosure, however, the VPPA expressly permits video tape service "providers" 9 to disclose a consumer's PII "if the disclosure is incident to the ordinary course of business of" the provider, with "ordinary course of business" further being defined as a "transfer of 11 For the Northern District of California United States District Court 10 ownership." See 18 U.S.C. § 2710(a)(2); id. at § 2710(b)(2)(E). Thus, plaintiff's allegation 12 that SCEA unlawfully disclosed plaintiff's PII to SNEI in connection with SCEA's transfer to 13 SNEI, is not actionable and fails to state a claim under the VPPA. 14 As to the latter disclosure premised on the purportedly unlawful disclosure of 15 plaintiff's PII to DOE defendants, plaintiff's allegations fail to state that a disclosure has 16 affirmatively taken place, identify with particularity the person(s) or entity to whom such 17 disclosure was made, or state that any such disclosure falls outside the scope of 18 disclosures permitted under the VPPA. See FAC, ¶¶ 2, 12, 48, 71, 73. Accordingly, 19 plaintiff has failed to adequately allege sufficient facts to state a claim for unlawful 20 disclosure to DOEs under the VPPA. 21 For the foregoing reasons, defendants' motion to dismiss plaintiff's claim for unlawful 22 disclosure under the VPPA is also GRANTED. The dismissal is with prejudice, to the 23 extent premised on plaintiff's claim for unlawful disclosure incident to the transfer of 24 ownership between SCEA and SNEI. The dismissal is with leave to amend as to plaintiff's 25 claim for unlawful disclosure to DOE defendants, so that plaintiff may cure the specific 26 deficiencies highlighted above. 27 3. Defendants' corresponding request for judicial notice is GRANTED, to the 28 2 1 extent defendants request that the court take judicial notice of the complete version of 2 SNEI's Privacy Policy, as referenced specifically at paragraphs 45 and 48 of the FAC. The 3 request is DENIED, to the extent defendants seek judicial notice of versions of the Privacy 4 Policy not specifically referenced in the FAC; or of the PSN Terms of Service and User 5 Agreement, since this document is not referenced in the complaint. 6 7 Plaintiff's amended complaint shall be due no later than May 16, 2012. Defendants' response thereto shall be due no later than June 6, 2012. 8 IT IS SO ORDERED. 10 Dated: April 20, 2012 ______________________________ PHYLLIS J. HAMILTON United States District Judge 11 For the Northern District of California United States District Court 9 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 3
