Olive Garden Offers Free Babysitting to Increase Sales
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Olive Garden, one of several restaurant chains owned by Darden Restaurants (DRI), continues to see sales decline at locations across the U.S. The "Italian dining experience" inspired restaurant chain has worked on revamping its menu, but on Friday is offering something not many other dining establishments offer: free babysitting.
On Feb. 7, Olive Garden will host "Parents' Night Out." With partner My Gym, Olive Garden will allow parents a night out to enjoy dining without their children. My Gym has hundreds of locations around the country and in international markets. In this case, Olive Garden will partner with 145 locations around the country. The chain has more than 800 locations.
Olive Garden is heavily promoting its two for $25 offer during the "Parent's Night Out" event. Parents will pay a deposit at My Gym locations, but will receive that full amount back when they bring their Olive Garden receipt to pick up their children.
This event won't move the needle for Darden Restaurants, but it could help fight a growing trend of negative same-store sales for Olive Garden. In the first quarter, same-store sales were down 4.0% at Olive Garden locations. In the second quarter, same-store sales declined 0.6%. A weak September hurt Olive Garden, while October and November actually saw improved same-store sales.On top of the weakness of same-store sales, Olive Garden has seen rising food and beverage costs and labor costs. This has hurt profit and earnings for shareholders. Darden continues to see strength in its specialty restaurant business, which is the focus of several activist investors. In the second quarter, same store sales increased 4.1% at specialty locations. Darden Restaurants is in the midst of several activist battles that could change its restaurant ownership. The company currently owns Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Longhorn Steakhouse, The Capital Grille, Bahama Breeze, Eddie V's Seasons 52 and Yard House. The company plans on spinning off or selling Red Lobster. Shares of Darden Restaurants are down about 7% in 2014. In 2013, shares increased 20%. With activist interest and a healthy 4% dividend yield, Darden shares look like a nice portfolio addition. At the time of publication the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.

"WHEEL!...OF!...FORTUNE!"Just as Jeopardy was ending its daytime run on NBC, Merv Griffin introduced an even more durable Game Show format: Take the children's game of Hangman, add a carnival wheel with various dollar amounts, as well as hazards such as "Lose A Turn" and "Bankrupt", and allow the winner to spend the money on prizes right there in the studio. The 1973 pilot, Shopper's Bazaar, was very different from the series; a further two pilots in 1974 hosted by Edd "Kookie" Byrnes (who admitted that he was drunk) held far closer to the rules we know today.When Wheel debuted in 1975, Chuck Woolery was the host and Susan Stafford operated the puzzle board. By late 1983, after Woolery left the show in a salary dispute with Merv Griffin and Stafford left to do humanitarian work, Pat Sajak and Vanna White had become the show's full-time hosts in both daytime and syndication, although there was a ten-month period from 1981-82 in which Pat and Susan worked together. (White became popular out of proportion to the popularity of any other woman in a similar role on a game show.) The syndicated Wheel dropped the shopping element in 1987, then switched from a mechanical puzzle board to one with touch screens a decade later. Starting in the early 1990s, it has added (and occasionally retired) all manner of new wrinkles, including new puzzle categories and a trio of Toss-Up puzzles.After Sajak left the daytime Wheel to try his luck as a late-night talk show host on CBS, former football player Rolf Benirschke (who had very little previous TV experience) and Bob Goen tried unsuccessfully to take his place. Under Goen's watch, Wheel jumped to CBS for 18 months before returning to NBC for another nine (and eventually folding). In 1997, CBS and GSN tried a children's spin-off titled Wheel 2000, which did not fare well and remains the last daytime version. The nighttime version has carried on for an impressively long time, and is still one of the highest-rated TV series in syndication.The show has had multiple international adaptations, notably the Australian version which ran from 1981 to 2006. Versions in Brazil, France, Russia, Vietnam, Panama, Spain, Hungary and Turkey are still in production.

Marine Solar Cells (MSC) by Phil Pauley are conceptual hybrid solar and wave energy generators designed to generate renewable energy off shore. The solar wave unit captures wave energy through natural buoyancy displacement and solar energy through photovoltaic cells, taking advantage of natural light reflecting off the ocean's surface to increase solar capture by 20%. This ability contrasts with conventional solar farms or wave power designs which only harvest one form of power. Hundreds of low-cost solar-wave units could be installed together in off-shore energy batteries or plants, generating thousands of jobs and a new solar-marine industry with worldwide implications.

Name: Secrets, Spies, And Scholars
Author: Ray S. Cline
Cline, Ray S. (1976, 1982). The CIA: Reality vs. Myth. Originally published as Secrets, Spies, And Scholars: Blueprint of The Essential CIA. Washington DC: Acropolis Books
Date Posted: February 27, 2014
Cline's book drew heavy response – most of it negative – when it was published in 1976. The following is based on a review by Robert L. McTiernan printed in The Alternative: An American Spectator (August/September 1977, pp. 30-32). Cline's most startling recommendation was the elimination of the CIA and replacing it with two agencies. My comments are in brackets and are added only for clarification.
Intelligence agencies and activities are taken for granted today. Yet only since Franklin D Roosevelt created the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in 1941 has the United States government been able to rely on a centralized, civilian authority together and evaluate strategic information. That step resulted largely from the quiet persuasion and assistance of British officials, such as Winston Churchill, who, with the Secret Service of their own dating from the time of Elizabeth I, could foresee a crucial role intelligence would play in the inevitable conflict between the United States and Nazi Germany. Thus our own involvement in the intelligence world stemmed from a covert political operation by the British government, and irony that the author of Secrets, Spies And Scholars makes sure is not lost on his readers.
Ray S. Cline joined the OSS in 1943 and retired from government service 30 years later. Blending personal memoirs with detailed history, he examines in his book nearly every important issue concerning the Central Intelligence Agency. As befits a former Deputy Director for Intelligence of the CIA and the former Director of the State Department's Bureau of intelligence and research, Cline's approach is analytical (and in fact a bit dry) rather than anecdotal. Special interest are his assessments of the various CIA Directors in his account of J. Edgar Hoover's repeated attempts to capture control of foreign as well as domestic intelligence. Underlying these details, however, are two basic themes.
The first stresses the primacy of the intelligence as opposed to the operations function of the CIA. Cline emphasizes the need for a neutral agency – with no interest in increasing the defense budget or vindicating State Department policy – to key policy makers informed. In addition to keeping track of current events, this agency must provide "estimates" of what other governments will do in the future, and Cline manages to convey what an extraordinarily difficult task this is. A research analyst must sift through enormous amounts of data, and then try to make an accurate assessment of the political, military, or economic situation in some distant country or area of the world. Most of this data – more than 80% according to Harry Howe Ransom – comes from open sources such as foreign broadcast and photo reconnaissance satellites, and much of it eventually proves worthless. There is always the danger that so much information will simply overwhelm analyst. In fact, the Pike Committee has attributed the CIA's much criticized failure to predict the 1973 Yom Kippur war to the sheer volume of reports the Agency received from the Middle East. With the flood of "an average of hundreds of reports each week," few analysts had time to digest more than a small portion of them.
The CIA's blunders in the intelligence area are by now well-known. But Cline reminds us that the Agency predicted China's first nuclear explosion and detected the Sino-Soviet split as early as 1956. In contrast to those who portray it as a mindless tool of Cold Warriors, he credits the CIA with moderating the Joint Chiefs' fear of a Soviet attack in Europe during the 1950s. And along with many students of the Vietnam War, Cline claims that the Agency frequently angered policymakers with its sober assessment of the effectiveness of US bombing and the chances for military success.
Though Cline spent his career mainly as an intelligence officer, he does offer some observations about covert actions, the second theme of Secrets, Spies And Scholars. These operations, of course, are not intelligence activities at all, but our attempts to influence events in other countries. Most such projects have done little to further US foreign-policy goals and some, for instance the Bay of Pigs, have been total disasters. Yet the CIA has repeatedly overestimated the value and feasibility of peace time covert operations. Client attributes this, in part, to the overly romanticized stories of the OSS wartime exploits but it was two of the Agency's own covert "successes" that encourage the illusion that it could meddle anywhere in the world with impunity. In 1953, the CIA reputedly overthrew the leftist premiere of Iran, Mohammad Mossadegh, and restore the shot to his throne one year later, the CIA supposedly deposed Arbenz Guzmán in Guatemala. Cline reports, however, that in both cases the CIA rendered no more than "marginal assistance" to strong, indigenous forces already opposed to the regime. When the CIA launched an extensive effort to topple President Sukarno of Indonesia in 1958, the result was "ignominious failure."
Cline argues that the main practical problem with covert paramilitary operations is that United States involvement is almost always revealed. Then, the same political pressures that mandated covert assistance in the first place usually force the United States to withdraw its support. Cline, however, is not opposed to all covert operations; he praises the undercover aid given to anti-Communist political, labor, and cultural groups in Western Europe after World War II. According to Cline, this program was adopted at the urging of George Kennan in order to counter a massive Soviet effort to undermine democracy in Western Europe. Even the Church Committee conceded in its Report that the program has "passed retrospective public judgment."
In his final chapter "Blueprint for the Future," Cline discusses recent revelations, reforms, and his own proposals for change. He attributes most of the anti-CIA sentiment of the past two years [1975-77] to Watergate-era paranoia and citing the Church Committee's retraction of its Chairman's statement that the Agency was a "rogue elephant," claims that the CIA's abuses were "not massive." In addition, he points out that most of the wrongdoing was uncovered in 1973 by the Agency itself in an effort to correct past irregularities. For some suspicious practices, Cline provides innocent explanations: CIA "files" on American citizens, for example, were merely records of routine FBI inquiries to see whether anti-war groups had foreign connections. Cline is doubtless correct that the media overreacted to CIA revelations and that the Agency "has never come close to being an American Gestapo." Nevertheless, he seems to ignore what disturbed most Americans and threatened civil liberties: the government's belief that opponents of its policies were enemies of the nation.
Cline makes the more telling point that the most egregious CIA excesses, such as domestic spying, were the direct result of pressures from Presidents Johnson and Nixon. He is especially critical of President Nixon and Henry Kissinger for impairing the Agency's independence by suppressing intelligence that could not be used to bolster administration policies. Also, during Nixon's tenure, the Office of National Estimates (which Cline helped to establish in 1950) was replaced with a system of preparing intelligence estimates upon request by the National Security Council. Ostensibly a move to improve the revelance and timeliness of reports, Cline sees it as a "retrograde" step that increased White House control of intelligence analysis.
Considering his belief that most of the CIA's wounds were White House inflicted, Cline sympathy for greater Congressional oversight is not surprising. If Congress had been a better watchdog, successive Presidents would not have dared to push the Agency into embarrassing enterprises. Like most serious students of the subject, Cline blames the lack of responsible oversight on Congress itself. As the Church Committee reported, the Senate subcommittee with chief oversight responsibility convened only six times between 1971 and 1974. Moreover, the attitude of Congress for the CIA during most of the last 30 years [1947-1977] has been, as Cline characterizes it, "supportive rather than critical." The executive branch did keep the oversight subcommittees informed about major covert projects and, as Deputy Director for Intelligence, Cline participated in many of the briefings. Not surprisingly, many members of Congress who also participated have since suffered "convenient lapses of memory."
More than a year has passed since former President Ford [1976] set up and Operations Advisory Group and a Committee on Foreign Intelligence to oversee all intelligence activities and covert operations. Cline praises these reforms for increasing the accountability of the various intelligence agencies without threatening their independence. But he also makes a modest proposal of his own – abolish the CIA. This is not as revolutionary as it sounds. The acronym, "CIA," is a "worldwide public-relations liability." And to remedy this, Cline suggests that the task the CIA now performs be divided between two new organizations.
The Central Institute of Foreign Affairs Research would be the heart of Cline's new system. This agency would supervise the budget and work of all intelligent analysis, including those in the State and Defense Departments. All intelligence activities would be managed by the Director of Central Intelligence, who would be elevated to the Cabinet. Keeping analysts in a separate agencies would help to shield them from the suspicion Americans have for clandestine activities. Placing the responsibility for analysis in one Bureau and the director in the cabinet might even improve the code coordination of intelligence activity. (But it would not remove the greatest barrier to better management: the fact that nearly 90% of the intelligence budget is controlled by the Defense Department.)
The other branch, the Clandestine Services Staff, would be responsible for conducting espionage, i. e., the clandestine collection of information. Espionage is a rather limited tool for gathering intelligence, if only because in tightly controlled societies, such as the Soviet Union for the nations of Eastern Europe, infiltration is next to impossible. Most information secretly collected by the CIA comes from defectors, electronic bugging devices, and agents in the Third World. The less reliable than information collected openly, it may provide the only clues as to what unfriendly governments or terrorist groups are planning or how they will react under certain circumstances. "Nobody has ever been able to photograph intentions," as former CIA director James Schlesinger put it.
Cline does not provide for any permanent organization to conduct covert political and paramilitary actions. Small-scale short-lived programs of economic and military aid could be undertaken, but only after a formal decision by the President on the recommendation of the Operations Advisory Group. Cline, understandably, assigns covert action a minor place in his scheme. Despite all the recent publicity, the number of such operations has been declining steadily since 1968. Further, as Cline points out, existing laws make even small-scale covert projects highly impractical. The Hughes-Ryan amendment, passed by Congress in 1974, prohibits covert operations, except for those the President finds "important to" the national security and reports "in a timely fashion" to the "appropriate" committees of Congress. (The cutoff of aid last year [1976] to the pro-Western factions of the Angolan Civil War is a good example of the Hughes-Ryan amendment at work.) Even though the Senate has consolidated oversight responsibility in a single intelligence committee, so many members of Congress are still entitled to classified information that it is nearly impossible to keep covert actions covert. Press leaks and a full and public policy debate are inevitable.
The best chance of combining effective oversight with secrecy lies in establishing a single Congressional committee with full and exclusive rights to information about covert action. Citing the political barriers to such a joint committee, Cline instead recommends two separate intelligence oversight committees: one in the Senate that would focus on foreign policy and intelligence and another in the House that would deal mainly with budgetary problems. This proposal, which has wide support, is eminently sensible, as is Cline's suggestion that less sensitive intelligence reports be made available to all members of Congress.
Still, there is the risk in making all these changes. The exhaustive review of the intelligence community during the past few years[1970s] by two Congressional committees, Rockefeller and Murphy Commissions, and the press may have had a needed "cathartic effect," to use Sen. Howard Baker's phrase. But it seems that nearly every institutional reform that could prevent future abuses has now been adopted. As Cline himself reminds us, the intelligence community must now "rebuild its prestigious, spirit and confidence." Reshuffling that community again would once more draw public attention to it and interrupt the period of quite renewal it so sorely needs.
The most important foreign-policy problem we face today is not the secret activity of federal agencies but the fact that, since the end of the Vietnam War, the United States has not had a coherent foreign policy. This uncertainty will inevitably in, but not until the current debate over the CIA – which is really a debate over the proper goals of American foreign policy – is settled. The Agency's critics appear intent on trimming its capabilities to appoint suitable for a drastically reduced American role in world affairs. But those who see a prudent policy of containing Soviet power and supporting liberal democracy is the only viable course for the United States realize that a strong and trusted Central intelligence Agency is essential.

The 26-year-old Roque attended Bellevue University and led the 2008 Bruins with a 12-2 record, a 2.20 ERA and 80 strikeouts, earning first team all-MCAC honors and the 2008 MCAC Pitcher of the Year award. The 6-foot, 220-pound hurler from Miami, Fla. began his professional career later that year, splitting time between the Southern Illinois Miners of the Frontier League and the Pensacola Pelicans of the American Association. In a full 2009 season with Pensacola, Roque was 4-5 with a 4.09 ERA and 31 strikeouts in 50.2 innings pitched.
Sussex is Roque's fourth different stop of the 2010 season. He spent spring training with Pensacola before moving on to the Winnipeg Goldeyes of the Northern League and then the Traverse City Beach Bums of the Frontier League.

The U.S. Justice Department reportedly is nearing the end of its review of Washington and Colorado's new laws legalizing marijuana and could be announcing soon how it will respond.
The issue is that while voters in Washington and Colorado have legalized pot under state laws, it remains illegal under federal law.
Attorney General Eric Holder told a meeting of state attorneys general he is examining policy options and international implications of the issue, The Associated Press reported today.
Holder's assessment could result in the federal government suing the states over the new laws, the wire service said. Alternatively, Holder could decide not to mount a court challenge. The Justice Department examination has been under way since shortly after last fall's elections. Washington and Colorado became the first states to pass laws legalizing the recreational use of marijuana.
State and local authorities have said they're hoping to get some sense of how the federal government will respond to voters' wishes before spending a lot of time and effort developing regulatory systems to control production and sale of legal pot.

Rumor: Sony distributing new security-enhancing SDK to PS3 devs {Joystiq}
Apr 28th 2011 12:30AM @Namminamm
I find myself wondering if giving OtherOS and/or homebrew back to users (and apologizing to geohotz et al) would be a bad move at this point. It's unlikely that the custom firmwares had anything at all to do with the current round of attacks, and giving back some tools to tinker with would keep most of the hacker (as opposed to crackers) community happy. Sony's PR could definitely benefit from a little good will at this point. If Sony designs the new firmware appropriately, giving these features back should, from a security standpoint, move them closer to the original state; i.e. OtherOS, and another 4 hack-proof years.
Will this actually happen? I sincerely doubt it.

Aug 20th 2010 6:44PM As a former South Carolina resident (I'm too much of a yank, they kicked me out). I lived in a town called Summerville, just outside of Charleston.
1: South Carolina back roads outside of the city have no shoulders. generally, the ditches start a foot from where the asphault ends. If you do start inadvertently swerving, you're off the road before you know it. It also means that when a cop 'pulls someone over', they don't actually get off of the road; they just block the lane.
2: South Carolina vehicle registration laws are very lax. There are no inspections to speak of; if it has wheels and an engine, you can prettymuch get a state license plate for the thing. The chance of her '87 bronco being roadworthy by most standards is debatable.
3: Officers couldn't stop people for safety belt infractions in the state until December of 2005. Since safetybelts weren't necessarily a ticketable offense before that, it's likely that they weren't in the habit of wearing the things.

I am having a problem with Ghost 7.5 and our new servers.
When run Ghost server is not contactable, the client is picking up the IP address but cannot talk to the server in question.
I have one running server 2003 but running ISA (which I know will probably stomp all over ghost communication but I tried it anyway).
The other is running server 2008 32bit, with a few other services.
Any ideas? I can only think that its a computability issue with server 2008. Its not the switches, I have check and can ghost from my old servers across the new switches quite happily. The application works fine.

Just did a fresh install of ArchBang on a laptop. To avoid the upgrade problems I followed the steps posted by oliver, pablokal and puttepw on previous posts.
I rebooted after the install and did a forced update/upgrade after finding my fastest mirrors.
I entered the command:
$ sudo pacman -Syuf
This forces the upgrade which takes care of the wicd problem.
Next, after all the packages were upgraded (385 packages and about 293 MB total) I removed the aufs2 package
$ sudo pacman -R aufs2 aufs2-util
which takes care of aufs2 no longer being in the newer kernels.
Next, I reinstalled xorg-xkbcomp to stop the respawning issue
$ pacman -S xorg-xkbcomp
and then finally, I rebooted. ArchBang fired up without any problems. I rebooted several times just to make sure and there were no problems. Please try this method for first installs. If you are still experiencing problems then look at:

ya Hey, thanks.
Thanks a bundle for that seamingly easy fix. How did you figure that would bypass those wicd issues. Is it advisable to use the pacman -Suf option for regular updates? I am almost guessing no.
I would use this for my future new installs.
During the build of the new wicd package, .pyo files were generated that weren't in the last package. A forced upgrade was needed to write the new files into the package during the upgrade in your system and allow pacman to continue to update it correctly in the future.
Updating by using -f with Syu is not required unless there is a problem upgrading the package. Using -Syu or -Syyu is all that is needed.
The new release in September by WillXtreme will not require these installation changes. I will try and build a new updated AB .iso this weekend while I'm in Singapore but I'm not sure I'll be successful with the new scripts for archiso. Waiting for my flight now.

Is it advisable to use the pacman -Suf option for regular updates? I am almost guessing no.
I think you're right and you shouldn't be doing it. IMO you want to know when this happens and adding the 'f' flag will leave you blind to it.
Does anyone have a good reason why 'f' *should* be used by default?
Oliver is right and kazuya is right. In general, you don't want to blindly force upgrades all the time because you won't know which packages were causing problems and needed to be forced. In the case of my installation instructions, we already had documented posts with problems caused and solved during installation. I knew from the posts, my own installation experience and instructions from the package builder/maintainer to force an upgrade on wicd and it would be the only package out of almost 400 that would need forcing. I tried to keep the number of steps in the installation to a minimum to keep it simple to follow and execute, so in this case it was a bit dirty but okay at the moment.
Installation instructions may change as krb5 has changed a lot in the last build and a patch from Fedora was required because it started pulling in a lot of dependencies that weren't in the last build and this had to be stopped. Ah, the fun of using a bleeding edge distro.

Hi all.. My first post here..
I'm new to arch/archbang.. After updating, had some issues with reboot/shutdown. I'm unable to reboot or shutdown my pc, either through right-click -> exit or using terminal -> shutdown -r now or any other commands.
Have reinstall several times, googling around try to find the answer but to no avail.
my machine are dell optiplex 330, archbang installed to usb-hdd samsung 500gb.
I also installing arch just to see if the issues just in archbang but the same problem also in arch (am using netinstall, gnome de)
i install chakra and not expecting any much different, at first attempt, the update does give me the same problem. i reinstall, then updating again, the second time, to my surprise, the problem disappeared.
Am currently are extremely tired to continue my hunt on the net, reinstall/reupdate.Somemore, my internet connection are not that very speedy. So, any help is more than appreciated and many thanks in advance.
if you try and shutdown from the command line (with shutdown or poweroff) what is displayed on the screen?
This might help: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 56#p893256

This thread worked for me, except I decided to change the FS type to XFS from Ext4 and I did a reinstall. When I ran through these steps again I ran into the problem described here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124289 (solution inside)
pacman: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /usr/lib/libalpm.so.6)
Last edited by localredhead (2011-08-11 14:51:11)
Awesome! localredhead, thanks for adding for that! Yay, another forced package upgrade. :-(
Addendum: Just found this in my inbox from Dave Reisner (falconindy) about pacman 3.5.4-3:
"final" is really biting me...
Yet another rebuild to address an issue we're having on the 2010.05
media with the first pacman -Syu hosing the system because of a broken
dep on glibc 2.14. The -3 rebuild addresses this by adding an explicit
versioned dep on glibc>=2.14 so that glibc is pulled into the SyncFirst
transactions with pacman.
NB: We've already solved this problem for pacman4 with the, as SyncFirst
targets will implicitly get --needed and --recursive flags added to the
transaction and deps needing updates will automatically pulled in.
Please sign off, both arches.
BTW, Pacman 4.0.0RC1 is in testing now

MSE Event Error
MSE icon shows everything is OK but getting this event error.
I had MSE setup for weekly scan and update before scan. I notice that MSE was updating every 36 to 48 hrs and giving this event error although the program said it was up to date and I had real time protection. If this error was correct then why didn't the icon show an error? I did a manual update last night and the error did not show up today. I am assuming that if the update is over 24hrs old the error would come back. I am now running daily scan w/update to see how this works out. I may go back to a weekly scan next week if no more errors to see if the errors come back.

- Black construction paper cut into strips (8 per child)
- Crayons or markers
- Scissors

8) Jeff Ireland stimulates local advertising economy with his name towed on a banner behind a airplane.
9) Jeff Ireland builds community outings by creating protest at team headquarters.
10) Jeff Ireland helped Ms. Bryant reform her life when he brought her whorish ways to public light.
The above post is not subject to penalty under the TOS I declare the Hayden Fox defense. " It is impossible for the staff to know my context therefore I cannot be penalized"
I will just say that when Ireland first got here, he wanted to draft Anquan Bolden WR in the second round and recommended that to Parcells who thought differently. e should have been a dolphin from the start.
Amazing that the Colts went out and hired the GM that I wanted a couple of years ago...
And then that GM went out and drafted three players that I screamed about last season and then went on to a 9 win improvement.
From 2 wins to 11 wins...without a superstar at left tackle lol.
Crazy stuff.
Don't get me wrong...the OP makes some very valid and deservedly passionate points and is entitled to vent. However most of these points part and parcel or together have been reiterated and regurgitated ad nauseum. At some point in the near future it might be a good idea for our Admins to step in to start a forever-merging "Jeff Ireland. Soapbox Pro & Con Master Thread" to allow continued venting or defending even though it has all been said or covered before.
"Yep. Blow it up. This might the worst team I've ever seen constructed in my life.
And then you throw in the terrible preparation and in-game coaching. There is no defense.
But do it right. Fire everyone in the building. No survivors. , JiF Jetnation

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Spectrum of scams stretches across the web
Attempted scams and frauds through email are becoming an epidemic. We have talked about this danger before, but when I did a presentation on it Thursday to a group of educated, affluent people, I was reminded just how prolific and clever these scams have become.
Last week, an investment adviser told me of a client who actually fell victim to such a scam, to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars. The threat is real.
To me, one of the scariest trends is how clever the "phishers" are becoming. These are criminals who try to get your personal information, especially usernames and passwords for your financial accounts, by "phishing" for it through various means. They resort to ingenious methods to achieve their goal.
We have state-of-the-art spam filters, spyware and anti-virus protection, but in my hands are completely legitimate-looking emails supposedly from Royal Bank, Bank of Montreal and CIBC, PayPal, investment dealers and even an online concert ticket website. (I don't have any such accounts.)
All of these were sent to me to supposedly "protect" me from security breaches on my accounts. Many tell me my access has been restricted because of "threats" and that I can reactivate my account by clicking on a link and logging in.
A recent email supposedly from "PayPal" was particularly brazen. It requested me to first confirm my "account ownership" by filling in all of my personal data, including my mother's maiden name, SIN and credit card number, expiration date and verification number.
Of course, if I do this, I will have given them everything they need to have full access to my card for their use and a great start on stealing my identity to get more cards and credit issued, without me knowing it.
DO NOT click on any links, or go to any websites, or answer any emails asking you to provide any personal information or passwords.
The other current epidemic is social-media scams. Through Facebook, Twitter or other such websites, it's easy to get to know a scary amount of information about someone, which allows a criminal to approach that person as if they were an acquaintance. Social-media sites are also fertile ground for attractive "free" offers or enticements to visit other websites.
Common scams are direct messages that tell you either flattering or compromising images of you appear on a certain website, or which encourage you to cut and paste an address into your browser in order to access coupons or other offers, or to view a salacious video. These are really methods to download malware or a "worm" onto your computer, which can take control of your account.
You have probably received emails supposedly from friends, only to be told afterwards they knew nothing about them. Such spam is a result of malware.
Do not accept offers that appear to be too good to be true, even if they are from well-known retailers. If you have gone to a website that encourages you to "upgrade your Flash player now" or a similar notice in order to view a video, be very suspicious. Certainly do not accept "friend requests" from people you don't know well.
Also common are fake quizzes, contests or other potential prize-winning events, which require you to provide your cellphone number before "winning." Of course, this allows them to subscribe you to expensive text-messaging services.
Be very careful about the information you reveal about yourself on social-media sites. Scammers spend their days there looking for clues to people's identity and ways to introduce themselves to your friends.
Please be careful -- both online and at retailers and restaurants -- with your PIN, passwords, information about where you bank or invest, where you live, when you will be on vacation, what type of computer you use and anything else that can give scammers and thieves a leg up.
Check your credit card regularly for unauthorized purchases. Fraud artists start with small amounts, to see if you're paying attention. Report any suspicious activity to your card company.
Do not accept phone offers to come to your house to fix your computer and don't even be tempted by offers of millions of dollars, if you will only help facilitate someone receiving an inheritance, or removing money from a war-torn country.
Any offer that seems too good to be true is almost certainly too good to be true.
I will post a list of fraud avoidance tips on my blog (www.davidchristianson.com).

Correction -- last week, I erroneously said a person must live in Canada for 20 years to collect maximum OAS. The correct figure is 10 years, if living in Canada at 65, and 20 years only if living outside of Canada when applying. Sorry about that!

March 18, 1925. The small settlement of Marah lies directly in the path of the worst tornado in U.S. history, which will descend without warning midday and leave the community in ruins. Only one man, Paul Graves, will still have everything he started the day with. Based on the historic Tri-State tornado, this book follows Paul Graves and his young family in the year after the storm.
