1 Love justice, you that are the judges of the earth. Think of the Lord in goodness, and seek him in simplicity of heart.
2 For he is found by them that tempt him not: and he sheweth himself to them that have faith in him.
3 For perverse thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise:
4 For wisdom will not enter into a malicious soul, nor dwell in a body subject to sins.
5 For the Holy Spirit of discipline will flee from the deceitful, and will withdraw himself from thoughts that are without understanding, and he shall not abide when iniquity cometh in.
6 For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.
7 For the spirit of the Lord hath filled the whole world: and that, which containeth all things, hath knowledge of the voice.
1 Love justice, you that are the judges of the earth. Think of the Lord in goodness, and seek him in simplicity of heart.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - It turns out that mystery launch across the skies of Southern California may have been a plane.
Video from KCBS shows an object flying through the evening sky on Monday that left a large vapor trail.

One expert has called it an optical illusion, saying it is an airplane heqding toward the camera and the contrail is illuminated by the sun.

They were much better when they were Garden State Credit Counseling. Tried recently to apply with Nova Debt twice and got no response to my application, and I applied twice.

Nova Debt is one of about 300 credit counseling agencies in oper
Nova, like any other counseling firm, is a business. Non profit designation as a company has tax benefits and requires them to provide free education to the public as a result. It does not change the fact they are a business and must operate as one. Non profit status in credit counseling DOES NOT mean charitable.
Nova Debt, nor any other debt management provider, "bickers" to get interest rates lower with your credit card lenders. The interest rate reductions are set by the banks. There is no negotiation, just a set parameter of income and expenses that you must meet.

you are so right. Men hate twilight. I'm telling you VANNE it was a fake relationship. They had to end it some way. What better way than a huge scandal. Maybe she's trying to change her image. The last Twilight movie is coming out soon. She needs a way to break away from her Twilight image.
haha. okay,buddy
i CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ARE PEOPLE OVER THE AGE OF20 WHO TIHINK THOSE TWO HAD A REAL RELATIONSHIP.. She apologized and professed her love on TWITTER of all places. Hello. There is no reason for them to have to carry on the relationship now that the last movie of te saga is due to come out. Also, Bella gets turned into a vampire so of course this "cheating scandal" is going to make her seem more edgy and believable on screen. It's a bougs relationship. Wake up. No offense.

mayb i should go watch Clannad...i never finished it....n i would probably cry at tat part!!
They usually have good and interesting story line and they usually make little sense but you are right they make little sense and are too hard to follow, but if you stick with them it will pay off. Sadly because they hard to understand most people don't like them.
Thank you! For re-minding me about Serial Experiment Lain I've seen it but I've been so busy lately I haven't had the chance to mark it watched. I'd give a 5/5!

He was sentenced to 13 years in prison, but due to a clerical error, was never sent to prison. So Anderson went on to live a product life in the community. When 13 years passed, and the prison realized their error, they took him into custody. This week, he got released, with time served. His case gives us a chance to re-think the absurdity if mandatory sentences.

The anti-abortion movement tries many tactics — guilt, misinformation, assuring women they're smart and capable enough, more guilt — but one of the latest permutations has been framing abortion as a racial issue. Some anti-abortion activists are framing legal abortion as a way to deter black women's reproduction. The latest example is this billboard hanging in New York City's highly trafficked SoHo neighborhood which reads, "The most dangerous place for an African-American is in the womb." The billboard was posted by the Texas-based anti-abortion group, Life Always, The New York Times reports, conveniently timed for Black History Month. Keep reading »

Modify Apache httpd.conf
Hi all.
How can I set:
1) mod_rewrite enabled
2) Set AllowOverwrite to All
For every single client/domain that is added as default?? All my websites applications require these to be set to function properly.
Can I simply edit main apache conf? Or do I need to do any modifications to ISPconfig3?
Running ISPConfig184.108.40.206
thanks for any and all help provided!!
1) mod_rewrite is always loaded in ispconfig 3.
2) AllowOverwrite ALL is the default for all websites in ISPConfig 3.
If thats not the case in your setup, then the server was either not installed as described in the perfect setup guide or you use a outdated version of ispconfig. The current ispconfig version is 220.127.116.11, if your version is older, then you should update.
So here it goes:
Installed from: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...nx-ispconfig-3
Installed latest ISPconfig220.127.116.11
Have added a couple of domains, and when I give htaccess files to them, they will not rewrite as they should..
Have created a phpinfo file to check for mod_rewrite, it does not appear in the php info.
The thing is, I am going to setup 3 websites on my server, all using cakephp as framework.
When I setup the site, with all configs as it should be, I only get a blank page. No errors or logging to anything (syslog, cakephp debug/error logs).
I am wondering, how to get it going. Have tried regular PHP, suPHP and suexec for the website, but nothing changes.
Are there any "main" httpd.conf I need to edit with the mod_rewrite? or something like that?
Anyone with experience running Cakephp apps when using ispconfig, please lend me a hand.
The correct settings for a php based cms system are:
php mode: fastcgi
suexec: on
and make sure that you uploaded the files with the FTP user of that site, so that the files are owned by the corect user and group. If you instaled the files as root user then you will have to chown them to the web user and client group of that website.
a2enmod rewrite
a2enmod rewrite = Module rewrite already enabled
Error.log = .htaccess: Invalid command
RewriteEngine On
I can not understand why rewrite is not working on my system.. I uploaded all files trough my created ftp account for that site/client.
# ls -all display correct ownership of files (web1:client1)
What vhost config files are in use?
- /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
- /etc/apache2/sites-available
Or are there any other files that might result in htaccess not working?
I have this working on one of my sites, please, try with this to see if rw is working
Options +FollowSymlinks
Now.. Something strange happened...
I was adding everything trough admin account, and no rewrite was working at all.
After my last reply in this thread I thougth, what if I delete the domain/site trough ispconfig, and add a reseller, and add the domain/site trough that reseller account.
I created a reseller account, logged in, created a new client + domain/site.
Tried the rewrite script, exactly same error (however, I noticed a "client0" had appeard in /var/www/clients/.
OK, I thought, and just deleted everything again, logged in to phpmyadmin as root, and edited all the db tables for ispconfig "auto-increment" values, to set next site/domain/ftp/db id to the next value (I like my dbs to be clean you can say). Then I went ahead again, as admin, and re-added the website, and ftp account. Uploaded the rewrite.php + htaccess file, and, wtf, it works!?!
Now rewrite.php are working as it should.. and the only thing I did was to create and delete a reseller + client/website on that reseller account.
The client0 are still located in my /var/www/clients/client0, it is an empty folder. Could this have something to do with it?
Strange!! :confused:
Edit: Had another domain on my server where rewrite was not working, just tested with the same script, and rewrite works there as well (did nothing to that domain/site/client - except uploading the rewrite.php + htaccess after it suddenly worked on the other domain).

Want a break from the week-to-week grind of the fantasy football season?
Well, if you're more into instant gratification and want to earn a quick buck (and not wait a full year to claim your prize) then the FP911Challenge.com is just for you.
What you do is fill a roster consisting of 1 QB, 2 RB's, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 K and 1 TD/ST- all within a budget of 60,000 imaginary dollars while competing against hundreds of other players.
The scoring is as follows:
Rushing yards made = 0.1pts
Rushing touchdowns = 6pts
Passing yards = 0.04pts
Passing touchdowns = 4pts
Interceptions = -1pt
Receiving yards = 0.1pts
Receiving touchdowns = 6pts
Receptions = 0.5pts
Kick-return touchdowns = 6pts
Punt-return touchdowns = 6pts
Fumbles lost = -2pts
Own fumbles recovered touchdowns = 6pts
Two-point conversions scored = 2pts
Two-point conversion passes = 2pts
Field-goals from 0-19 yards = 3pts
Field-goals from 20-29 yards = 3pts
Field-goals from 30-39 yards = 3pts
Field-goals from 40-49 yards = 4pts
Field-goals from 50+ yards = 5pts
Extra-point conversions = 1pt
Sacks = 1pt
Opponent-fumbles recovered = 2pts
Return touchdowns = 6pts
Fumble return touchdowns = 6pts
Safeties = 2pts
Blocked kicks = 2pts
Interceptions = 2pts
0 points allowed = 10pts
1-6 points allowed = 7pts
7-13 points allowed = 4pts
14-20 points allowed = 1pt
28-34 points allowed = -1pt
35+ points allowed = -4pts
What you have to do is a field a lineup plus manage a budget and predict who has the best matchups. You also have to take into consideration what under-the-radar type players(since you can't solely rely on studs) could lead you to glory. If you do all this well, you can earn some major dollars-and really quick.
That said, here are some options at each position that could be the difference in your matchups this weekend. I've designated each skill position (QB, RB, WR and TE) with a player worth the bucks, a player a tad under the radar, and a Hail Mary option. For kickers and defense, I will supply what I see as the best value.
Worth the bucks:Â Tom Brady- New England Patriots
After a bye week, Brady and the Pats should be well rested and raring to go in a rematch with the Buffalo Bills.
The last time they squared off, Brady threw for 340 yards and three touchdowns in a Pats' romp in Week 4. The Bills are 24th in the league in pass defense (248.4 passing yards per game) and after two weeks to prepare, Brady should have no trouble connecting with all of his weapons.
Under the radar find: Joe Flacco- Baltimore Ravens
When Flacco starts at home, he is more than a serviceable option at quarterback.
In four home games this year, Flacco has passed for 1,271 yards with seven touchdowns. This week Flacco and the Ravens' will be taking on a Raiders squad that is traveling from the west coast for a 1:00 ET start game.
The Raiders are susceptible to the pass, as they are 21st against the pass (245.3 YPG) . Flacco and the Ravens should open up the playbook this week; so Flacco may be worth the risk this week.
Hail Mary option:Â Ryan Tannehill- Miami Dolphins
Tannehill is holding his own this year and when the matchup is favorable, he is more than a capable quarterback to depend on.
This week Tannehill and the Dolphins will take on the Tennessee Titans at home. We're talking about a Titans' pass defense that is 27th in the league in pass defense (272.7 passing yards allowed per game) while also giving up the most passing TD's (20) in the league.
So, with Reggie Bush struggling, look for Tannehill to take some chances in the passing game given the matchup he has in front of him.
Worth the bucks: Ray Rice- Baltimore Ravens
Did you see what Doug Martin (who has been compared to Rice) did to the Raiders last week? Well, expect the Ravens to look at that tape and give Rice a heavy dose of touches in hopes for a similar-type performance.
The Raiders are allowing 124.1 rushing yards per game (22nd in the league) and have allowed 10 rushing touchdowns (third most in the league).
Expect Rice to carry the load and break down the weary Raiders in the second half.
Under the radar find: Willis McGahee- Denver Broncos
The Panthers' are not that bad at defending the pass, so they will look to limit Peyton Manning and the Broncos' passing game first and foremost. As such, look for the Broncos to counter with handing the ball off a ton to McGahee.
The Panthers are porous against the run, allowing 119 rushing yards per game (20th in the league), and the Broncos would like to get the run game established so they can eventually open up the passing game.
Hail Mary option:Â Chris Ivory- New Orleans Saints
Ivory had a solid first game on Monday night against the Eagles, rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries.
Ivory has proven to be a capable runner in the past and with the Saints sans Darren Sproles, they could call on Ivory to make more plays. The matchup is good for Ivory too. The Falcons rank 25th against the run (127.5 rushing yards allowed per game) and Ivory could be called on more after his encouraging performance on Monday night.
At $4,500, Ivory is a very cost-effective player to take a gamble on.
Worth the bucks:Â A.J. Green- Cincinnati Bengals
With each game he plays, Green is fortifying his claim to being the game's top receiver. After all, the guy has scored in seven straight games.
The Giants have been prone to giving up big plays in the passing game. The Giants rank 26th against the pass this year while allowing on average 264.3 passing yards per game.
So, try as they might to stop him, Green should get his numbers against the Giants and is guy to trust at a high price ($8,300).
Under the radar find: Brian Hartline- Miami Dolphins
Hartline has been feast or famine this year, and Sunday's contest with the Titans could be one of those feast days for Hartline.
You see, the Titans are atrocious against the pass. The Titans have been exposed in the air and have allowed 282.7 receiving yards per game while also giving up 20 passing touchdowns (tied for the most in the league).
So, Hartline is as solid as it gets for the price ($5,900) he is being listed at.
Hail Mary option: Nate Washington-Tennessee Titans
At $5,200, Washington is a bargain.
The Dolphins, too, are bad against the pass. With the Dolphin's being stout up front ,allowing 83.9 rushing yards per game, expect them to key in on Chris Johnson.
That being said, expect Jake Locker-who is making his return to the field this week- to air it out. The Dolphins rank 30th in the league in pass defense while allowing 298.3 passing yards per game; so there is a chance that Washington could get loose for a few big plays.
Worth the bucks:Â Rob Gronkowski- New England Patriots
No big shock here. "Gronk†is arguably the game's best tight end and with him racking up 14 receptions for 224 yards and four touchdowns in his last two games, he is approaching the beastly level he is accustomed to being at.
The Bills, who allow 248.4 passing yards per game (24th in the league), will be no match for Gronkowski. If you want to spend big bucks on a tight end, there is simply no better choice than "Gronk.â€
Under the radar find: Martellus Bennett- New York Giants
Bennett has certainly had his ups and downs this year and has not scored since Week 3.
That could all change when Bennett and the Giants take on the Bengals this Sunday. The Bengals have allowed tight ends to score in three straight games. The Bengals are mediocre against the pass, while allowing 240.4 passing yards per game (19th in the league). So, don't be shocked if Bennett has one of his bigger days.
Hail Mary option:Â Anthony Fasano- Miami Dolphins
What makes Tannehill and Hartline solid plays is also what makes Fasano a nice option this week.
I've already gone into detail how bad the Titans are against the pass, so no need to repeat that rhetoric. However, here is a new stat that makes Fasano an even more titillating selection: the Titans so far have allowed seven touchdowns to tight ends this year.
So, if you find yourself in a squeeze with the budget, Fasano at $4,800 could be a godsend.
Best value: Blair Walsh- Minnesota Vikings
Expect the Vikings to move the ball somewhat against an improving defensive unit in the Lions (read below) as Adrian Peterson alone should get the Vikings in Lions' territory enough times. However, with Christian Ponder struggling and being without Percy Harvin, the Vikes' offense could stall and that could make Walsh, who will be kicking at home, a solid play.
Best value: Detroit Lions
The Lions are slowly turning the corner. The Lions limited the Jaguars to less than 300 yards of total offense last week (with two takeaways) and with the Vikings reeling of late (and down Harvin) the Lions are a solid play at the minimum price of $5,000.

Most quiches call for crusts filled with processed flours and loads of butter. But this delicious and hearty whole wheat crust doesn't leave you missing the traditional version at all. And you won't have to mess around with pie weights or bags of dried beans as you often have to with the butter and white flour versions.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
To make the crust, stir the flour, salt, and olive oil together in a large mixing bowl. Gradually mix in the ice water, until the mixture starts to pull together to form a loose ball. Trickle in a little more ice water if necessary, Use your hands to pat the mixture into a firm ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
To make the filling, heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, partially covered, stirring often, until softened and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the speck and spinach and cook for 5 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to cool.
Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat well. Stir in the cheese, nutmeg, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Stir in the cooled spinach mixture.
Unwrap the chilled ball of dough and place on a clean, well-floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a disk about ¼ inch thick and 9 or 10 inches in diameter. Press the dough into a 9-inch Pyrex pie plate. Use a small fork to make a bunch of shallow dents in the bottom of the crust.
Bake the crust for 15 minutes; then remove it from the oven, pour in the egg and spinach mixture, and bake for about 35 minutes longer, until the center is firm to the touch and the top has browned lightly. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving so the quiche holds together when sliced. Before serving, garnish with more freshly grated cheese if you like.
Nutritional information is based on 8 servings, 1/8 teaspoon of added salt per serving, but does not include optional Speck or additional Parmesan cheese for garnish.

In 2011, an outbreak of listeria in Canteloupe melons claimed dozens of lives in the US and made international headlines. It also highlighted what critics say is a lack of regulations concerning the production of the foods that Americans eat. Since last summer alone, similar outbreaks in other fruits, cheese and peanut butter have been linked to hundreds of people falling sick. Now, the US Food and Drug Administration has announced new regulations it says will curtail the outbreak of foodborne illnesses that kill thousands of Americans every year.
"I think it's a fallacy that more regulations make food safer."
- Baylen Linnekin, the executive director of Keep Food Legal
Farmers will have to take new precautions to prevent contamination and manufacturers will have to prove they are keeping their operations clean. Food advocates say such rules are long overdue, but the proposals have also been highly criticised. The plan could cost large farms $30,000 a year to implement. And in an effort to prevent further protests, the regulations will only apply to some farms. For example, the ones growing green beans to be canned would not be regulated.
What will the proposed rules really achieve? Is there a risk of the food industry becoming overregulated? And what do the new regulations mean for farmers?Joining Inside Story Americas, with presenter Kimberly Halkett, to discuss food contamination and the new US regulations are guests: Bill Marler, a lawyer and expert in food safety; Baylen Linnekin, the executive director of Keep Food Legal; and John Spink, the associate director of the Anti-Counterfeiting and Product Protection Program at Michigan State University.
"I think our government and industry has a responsibility to try to drive those numbers down. The numbers of many foodborne pathogens have gone down, but they have gone down because of very extensive regulation on the meat side .... We're certainly not going to drive this down to zero, but we have an obligation to the families of the people that I represent to do a heck of a better job than we are doing now."

Oct. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Yields on Colombia's peso bonds rose to a two-week high on bets heavier-than-average rain will push food prices higher and stoke inflation.
The yield on Colombia's benchmark 10 percent bonds due in July 2024 rose five basis points, or 0.05 percentage point, to 7.56 percent. That's its highest level since Oct. 7.
Colombia's weather agency said yesterday that the La Nina weather pattern, which triggers above-average rainfall, may return in December and last through March. Rain in the first half of October was equivalent to the historical average for the whole month, according to the government. Floods last year and at the beginning of this year damaged crops and choked off farmers' supply routes, pushing food prices higher.
"People are nervous as they fear the bad weather will lead to higher food prices," said Camilo Perez, head analyst at Banco de Bogota SA, Colombia's second-biggest bank.
Colombia's consumer prices rose 0.31 percent in September from the previous month, driven by higher housing and food costs, after declining 0.03 percent in August. The government will release the October inflation report Nov. 5.
Economists covering the Colombian economy raised their year-end inflation forecast to 3.42 percent this month from 3.23 percent in the September survey, according to the median forecast in a central bank survey published Oct. 12.
The peso declined 0.3 percent to 1908.75 per U.S. dollar, from 1,902.42 yesterday.
Colombia yesterday imposed a limit on foreign-exchange trading by pension funds as it seeks to reduce the peso's volatility after the global market sell-off sparked a plunge in the currency.
Pension funds' currency transactions over a five-day period can equal no more than 2.5 percent of their assets under management, the Finance Ministry said in a statement. The measure limits trading in the spot market as well as derivatives trading, according to the statement.

Princess Leia: This bucket of bolts is never going to get us past that blockade.A blockade or siege on a city or country dependent on trade is something that can put them in dire straits. No goods can come in or leave which stifles their economy, and also means they aren't able to get food either. As it drags on, the people will start to get desperate, and look for a means to get what they need. Often, if they don't have the military might to break the blockade completely, they get some brash individuals willing run right through it, and hope they can either outrun or outmaneuver the blockading forces, to contact allies. This is known as running the blockade. Chase sequences and close action scenes will probably follow. Vehicles used in this are usually light and fast, for outmaneuvering mobile units. Heavier ones might be used if there are physical barriers that need to be rammed through, but they are usually too slow to survive a barrage of multiple weapons likely to be found on a blockade. Often occurs at sea with a Naval Blockade. Compare Leeroy Jenkins.

Novells Linux Desktop Zeros In on Integration
Novells Linux Desktop Zeros In on Integration
Novell Inc., which last year bought SuSE Linux and Ximian, is working on a single desktop product to ship before the end of this year.
Read more here about Novell, IBM and Sun Microsystems Inc. targeting Microsofts desktop.
That product will combine the best features from both the Ximian desktop and the SuSE Linux desktop, both of which shipped last year, in a single Novell desktop that will have Novell support, training, channel, partners and global reach.
"So, we are essentially taking the best of all three companies: strength from SuSE in terms of multiplatform support and enterprise-hardened Linux distributions; our expertise and usability and innovation and interoperability on the desktop from Ximian; and Novells strength as a billion-dollar-revenue company with an enormous channel and very powerful reach and great product quality and support," Nat Friedman, Novells vice president of Linux desktop engineering, told eWEEK in an interview.
Click here to read eWEEK Labs review of the latest version of SuSE Linux.
But Friedman would not discuss the pricing model for the upcoming desktop, except to say there is room for a subscription-type payment model as well as the traditional, one-time payment for the packaged physical software.
Friedman said Novell will continue to support existing customers on the current products, adding that the company is focused on creating a desktop environment that is extremely well-integrated and interoperated with the rest of the environment.
"So, you wont see us removing large chunks of code," Friedman said. "We will support both the KDE and GNOME desktop environments and, from an application perspective, there will be a set of defaults that we will support: Evolution, OpenOffice and Mozilla."
With its unified desktop product, Waltham, Mass.-based Novell is principally targeting the enterprise market of large-scale organizations, including government agenciesbut the company also will be looking at countries outside the United States in Latin America and Southeast Asia. The company will target small and midsized businesses (SMBs) later, Friedman said.
Six points differentiate Novells desktop offering from all of the other desktop products in the market already, he said, from Microsoft Corp.s Windows to the Red Hat Desktop and Suns Java Desktop System.
Click here to read about the release of Suns second Java Desktop System.
The first difference is Novells support and its experience in desktop support. "Red Hat has no experience supporting desktops at all. Novell, with Zenworks, has done this for a long time," Friedman said.
Second is the management solution for both Windows and Linux, and third are the value-added services that would make Linux work well for an enterprise environment, essentially GroupWise, GroupWise Messenger, the Identity Management solution, iFolder and iPrint.
"All those services that have been built on NetWare over the past 20 years are now being made available on Linux, and we have built Linux client code for all of this," he said.
Fourth is technology differentiation in a few key areas, including the thin-client space, where "we will have a very strong story that is hardware-independent," Friedman said.
The Mono Project is also a key differentiator, he said, as that technology will be included in the desktop, and Novell will create applications built on Mono.
"We are also going to be providing Mono as a supported ISV platform for people who want to build applications for Linux," Friedman said.
"This allows us to leverage all those Microsoft developers who have been trained on .Net and who can now develop applications for Linux, which is enormous and gives us a better interoperability story with Microsoft."
Next Page: Making a mixed environment work well.
Mixed Environment
The fifth differentiator is the fact that Novell knows interoperability and Windows well. The company is also implementing the Open Desktop Initiative, under which it is aggressively migrating all internal Novell clientsabout 6,000to the new Novell Linux Desktop under development.
"The coordination between our engineering team and the team doing that rollout is very good, and we are getting incredible feedback," Friedman said. "This is the best set of beta testers possible from an engineering perspective, as we can try things more aggressively and learn a lot faster.
"We understand that people are going to live in a mixed environment for a while and will still have Windows and Linux machines, and we are going to make that work really well, which again is not something Red Hat [Inc.] is focusing on and enabling," he said.
The sixth differentiating factor is what Friedman called Novells leadership in a number of key areas such as open source, OpenOffice, Mozilla, GNOME, KDE and Evolution. "We will use that and Mono to drive the real growth of our ISV strategy in the future," Friedman said.
Friedman also said there arent too many players in the desktop market and that the ones based on Linux are essentially all using the same code base. "The good news is that we are all using open source," he said.
"Red Hat engineers work with our engineers who work with Suns engineers every single day, so we are not repeating the Unix wars and are all working off the open-source code base, and theres room enough for a lot of competition. But we are going to compete really vigorously here," he said.
Responding to comments by Microsofts group vice president of platforms that the open-source community will be playing "catch-up" to Longhorn, the next version of Windows due in 2006, and that they are "cloners," Friedman said Microsoft has a strong history of copying open-source innovation, from the first Web servers and browsers to the first declarative language for user interfaces and XML.
"Microsoft is building these castles in the sky, and we are not going to build the same castles in the sky elsewhere. Thats not the approach. What matters is that we give the users and developers what they want," he said.
"Cloning Microsoft is not the approach here. What Microsoft has discovered, though, is that Web standards have stagnated and that the Web and desktop experiences are different."
He said the recent discussions between Mozilla and GNOME intended to look at how the community can provide a great environment for developers to provide high-fidelity applications until "we give them a Web deployment model. Thats what people want. Thats what that discussion centered on and was not about us going right after Microsoft," he said.
Microsoft is also releasing all of its innovation in Longhorn in pretty much a single drop, Friedman said. "We arent limited in that way, and we are able to provide innovation when it is ready, while Microsofts strategy is to make everyone pay for an upgrade, and so innovation is delivered that way."
For a look at the latest Longhorn build, click here.
But the fact that so many Linux-based desktops exist is a solid indication that customers want a Microsoft alternative, he said, adding that Novell sees a huge revenue opportunity there as the use of Linux desktops grows.
A number of enterprise pilotsmany of them undertaken by Fortune 100 companiesare testing Novells desktop, he said, as well as a group of customers known as the Customer Council that reports back on a weekly basis.
"We are not yet in public beta with the product, but it will be ready by the end of the year," Friedman said. "You will see a more public beta from us later this year."

Pacific City is Paradise City from Burnout Paradise in its future, and becomes Oceania from Extreme-G 3, as well as Big Blue from F-Zero GXThink about it. Paradise City was overrun with street racers. Law enforcement was non-existent. Crime would have run rampant. Paradise City being modeled after Los Angeles, it's all too likely that Paradise City, as many project LA will, separated from its mainland by moving with its tectonic plate along a fault line. Criterion, the developers of the Burnout series never showed us the dark side of Paradise.The three urban districts became the main districts of Pacific City: Harbor Town became The Den, run by The Volk; Palm Bay Heights became La Mugre, home to Los Muertos; and downtown became The Corridor, run by the Shai-Gen Corporation. Crime has taken over, and only The Agency can set things right. The other two districts of Paradise City remained attached to the mainland, leaving only the urban sectors to become Pacific City. It's highly likely that the local gangs used street racers to take control of the streets. As for the "It used to be attached to a continent" bit, you can sometimes see large rocks, maybe other islands, maybe the continent Pacific City used to be attached to, in the far distance from some of the coastal areas. There's even a still active street racing community. As Pacific City gets carried further out to sea, eventually the mainland will no longer be visible. The city will be converted to a tourist destination, and become Oceania, as seen in Extreme-G 3. A couple hundred years later, it will be converted again, this time into an industrial complex, becoming Big Blue, as seen in F-Zero GX.
The Los Muertos Gang as seen in Crackdown is the same gang as the bandits known as Los Muertos as seen in Crimson Skies: High Road to RevengeThe two gangs have more than a passing resemblance:
The Agent program is a distant precursor to the SPARTAN program in Halo.Why else would the Halo 3 beta be packaged in with an otherwise unaffiliated game? Crackdown wasn't unaffiliated at all. Instead, the Agents were a very early attempt at supersoldiers along the same lines as the SPARTA Ns. If anything, you could call the Agents SPARTAN-Zeros, since they came well before the more popular SPARTAN-I and IIs. Furthermore, as the Agent progresses, his armor gets a more and more 'powered' look to it. A couple even wear visored helmets into battle.
The Agent is a prototype for the Supersoldier from, er, PrototypeRelated to the above WMG. At the end of the game the Agent is an absolute hulk who can clear buildings in a single leap. Qualities similar to those possessed by the Blackwatch Supersoldiers, who are the only human (well, humanoid) mooks who can rival Alex Mercer's abilities. Like the Supersoldier, though, the Agent still isn't quite a match for Mercer. He can't run along vertical surfaces, for one thing...
In Crackdown 3, Catalina Thorne reverse-engineers the Agent's remains and makes her own batch.Personally, I'm looking forward to actually playing on the good-guys side.
The infection is an early strain Of the Zerg Infestaion virus form Starcaft.The infectees fit the description. They can borrow underground, they are vulnerable to UV rays and are certainly harder to kill then regular Civies. There are even ones that act like Banelings.
The Agency's shoot-on-sight violation of the criminal's rights is for the greater good.
The Director is a Psychopathic Manchild with no friends.
The Agency is a successor to the Freemasons.The prominent part of the logo is derived from the Freemasons' ruler and compass logo.
Crackdown share the same universe with either Saints Row 3 or 4

|World English Bible (WEB)
|New International Version (NIV)
|1 Now it happened after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, that Yahweh spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,
|1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses' aide:
|2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you, and all this people, to the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
|2 "Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them--to the Israelites.
|3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread on, to you have I given it, as I spoke to Moses.
|3 I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.
|4 From the wilderness, and this Lebanon, even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
|4 Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates--all the Hittite country--to the Great Sea on the west.
|5 There shall not any man be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you, nor forsake you.
|5 No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
|6 Be strong and of good courage; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
|6 "Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them.
|7 Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you: don't turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
|7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
|8 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate thereon day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
|8 Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
|9 Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; don't be afraid, neither be dismayed: for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.
|9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."
|10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
|10 So Joshua ordered the officers of the people:
|11 Pass through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh your God gives you to possess it.
|11 "Go through the camp and tell the people, 'Get your supplies ready. Three days from now you will cross the Jordan here to go in and take possession of the land the LORD your God is giving you for your own.' "
|12 To the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, spoke Joshua, saying,
|12 But to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,
|13 Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, Yahweh your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.
|13 "Remember the command that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you: 'The LORD your God is giving you rest and has granted you this land.'
|14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall abide in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them;
|14 Your wives, your children and your livestock may stay in the land that Moses gave you east of the Jordan, but all your fighting men, fully armed, must cross over ahead of your brothers. You are to help your brothers
|15 until Yahweh have given your brothers rest, as [he has given] you, and they also have possessed the land which Yahweh your God gives them: then you shall return to the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.
|15 until the LORD gives them rest, as he has done for you, and until they too have taken possession of the land that the LORD your God is giving them. After that, you may go back and occupy your own land, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you east of the Jordan toward the sunrise."
|16 They answered Joshua, saying, All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
|16 Then they answered Joshua, "Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
|17 According as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you: only Yahweh your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
|17 Just as we fully obeyed Moses, so we will obey you. Only may the LORD your God be with you as he was with Moses.
|18 Whoever he be who shall rebel against your commandment, and shall not listen to your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of good courage.
