I came across MyHelpster on Twitter, answering a tweet for feedback on their service. I had a look at the website, their social media accounts and thought " hmm, I quite like this!". So, an exchange of emails later between myself and co-founder/CMO Felix and I began to think " I actually REALLY like this!"
MyHelpster is offering one to-one online help on a variety of applications; MS Word, Excel,Outlook, PowerPoint, Publisher,Access, Open Office, Google Docs, IWork are all on the list at the moment, with many more planned. So if you have a problem with Excel, just what do you do? Well, of course you can Google away, or try and find some sort of online help document until you've driven yourself around the bend and still, an hour later have no solution. How about speaking to a human for a minimum fee of £ 0.99? You then, after they solve the problem, decide how much to pay. Yes, you the consumer decide how to much to pay based on your experience. Nice hey?
So, you decide how much to pay (other than the £0.99 fixed fee) and you decide when MyHelpster call you back. The problem can be solved over the phone or you can screen share or they can remotely access your computer. This is all done securely via OmniJoin.
As a freelancer, I can see myself using MyHelpster when they expand to WordPress, which I understand is coming soon. MyHelpster is ideal for freelancers as well as anyone else that doesn't have the benefit of an IT Support team behind them.
MyHelpster is a UK Start-Up, based in Manchester so this appeals to me also. We should be getting behind our entrepreneurs. Manchester is an incredible city too with a growing tech start-up fraternity. I find it really exciting and that's why I'm writing this blog post. MyHelpster are not paying me for this, I'm just into the idea and I'm supporting them 100%. Go MyHelpster!
So, don't struggle with an MS Office problem again. Give MyHelpster a go. Find out a bit more here:

Leading handset maker, Nokia has said in an unscheduled update that it has sold more than 86.3 million devices in October to December 2012 period, indicating that the company's partnership with Microsoft is bearing fruits.
Out of the total 86.3 million devices sold in the three month period, about 15.9 million were smartphone devices. The company had sold 6.3 million smartphones during the previous quarter. The growth comes as the company benefited from the Christmas and general holiday shopping season.
Nokia's company's flagship Lumia handets that run on Microsoft's Windows phone software recorded sales of 4.4 million devices. There are indications that the company is struggling to keep up the supply to match the high level of demand for the product. On the other hand, it sold 9.3 million Asha smartphones, which are low cost handsets meant for fast growing markets of India and China.
Nokia decided to phase out Symbian operating system in favor of Microsoft's Windows Phone software. Nokia said that adopting the Windows Phone platform incorporated some risks as the platform was new when Nokia agreed to run its smarphones on the platform.
Shares of the company rose 18 per cent during trading on the Helsinki stock exchange before closing 11 per cent higher at _3.32.

Here's something to think about before you hit the all-you-can-eat buffet: Mayo Clinic researchers found that overeating doubles the risk of memory loss in those age 70 and over. The study looked at 1,200 adults, ages 70 to 89, none with dementia, but 163 with mild cognitive impairment. The researchers found that those who ate more than 2,142 calories a day had nearly twice the risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) compared to those who ate fewer than 1,526 calories …

Age-related memory loss and mild cognitive impairment may be more common in men in their 70s and 80s than in women, a new Mayo Clinic study has found. That may be bad news for men, but the study also found some intriguing good news: About one-third of the participants initially diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment were able to improve their brain function back to normal at a later checkup. The researchers aren't exactly sure why this improvement occurred, although it …

My husband and I are interested in renting our current home and purchasing a larger home for our growing family size (three children). Current home is FHA ARM with decent rate. Our ficos are in the 660-670 range due to a fraudulent collection found on my husbands credit (still working on getting this removed). We would have to go conventional on the new home but only wanted to put 5% down, which puts us at a major disadvantage because of our ficos. We would have to qualify for both payments which we could based off our income. Also was looking at the homepath program but I'm not sure if it'll be a good fit because of the fraudulent collection still showing on his credit.
My question is whether or not we should first refi the current home into a conventional so that it would open our options on the new purchase? Or would that only hurt our credit further and delay us being able to move forward with buying a new home?
Also we do not have the option of selling our current home as it is currently underwater due to the housing market.
We have elderly parents we are also planning on taking in with the new home and don't really want to wait too long but still want to make the right choice for the future.
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
My husband and I are in the same situation. We can not sell and want to buy. We are looking at the home path . com to see if that is an otp. I will pay close attention to your outcome. We were told we could not have two FHA loans so we must go conv. loan. Refi is out because we are 20k underwater. What a stressful time. No sure where to start!

A Billings judge issued a $15,000 warrant Friday for a man who allegedly pawned his ex-wife's engagement and wedding rings.
Anthony Wayne Lamere, 26, faces a count of felony theft and a misdemeanor count of unsworn falsification to authorities.
He was scheduled to appear on the charges in Yellowstone County Justice Court at 3 p.m. Friday. When Lamere failed to appear, Judge David A. Carter issued an arrest warrant.
Charging documents say Lamere visited his ex-wife on May 16. She noticed he was acting strangely, she told police, and after he left she found that her wedding band and diamond-studded engagement ring from their marriage was missing.
The rings were originally purchased for $5,100, court records say.
The woman told police she contacted Lamere, who told her he pawned the rings at Platinum Plus Pawn, 1327 Main St., No. 6.
Police recovered the rings and a pawn slip in which Lamere stated he owned the rings.

Google Releases VirusTotal Uploader For OS X
Re:Easy to use, just upload your files! (37 comments)
And why would you be uploading personal files to check for viruses? Surely your personal files are the ones you KNOW are clean? It's the random crap you download and are sent that you have to scan.
Because doing so helps strengthen all anti-virus software which VirusTotal uses. The mistake is thinking of VirusTotal as just a big ol' multi-scanner, when under the hood it's a clearinghouse of virus and malware information for the participating vendors of detection and remedy software.
If they get a file that only triggers 17/51 of the scanners, then the other 34 will want to know why they didn't catch it, and research it, and improve their own products in response. So uploading files to them is a way of supporting their efforts.

Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 6
Something was wrong going back to when she lost her 1st matches to Vinci & McHale at Rogers Cup & Cincy in summer of 2010.
This is a year and a half later. She is not the player she was. Doesnt mentally compete the same way.
I also think a full time coach, like Sanchez is helping Petrova, would give her better strategies, but if her level drops off when its crunch time, there's nothing a coach can do.
Its the same for Jankovic, who was an excellent player. You have to be able to start each set holding serve, and finish each set playing at a high level.
And Caroline is not doing much of that for a long time now
Hopefully she can figure it out, but right now, everyone wants Caro in their section of the draw
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter....
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there
Enjoy This Moment!!
HEALTH and HAPPINESS to EVERYONE

Was there to be no respite for the weary? Cruciatus sighed in exasperation. In his current state, he would not be able to do any sort of fighting without reopening his neck wound. Nonetheless, he shattered the ring and pinky fingers of his left hand, summoning a floating bone cloud around him. Despite being in the middle of the group, getting attacked from above or below was a possibility he was not willing to rule out.
Selren, the Arcanite Archer He could only see fault in the logic of Darkeye and Aguma, cutting themselves off from those they employed to assist them. But, in hindsight, the great Lord of the Shaodw had never told them protection was part oft heir work. If anyone here was capable of defending themselves in these terrible Isles, it was them, and most likely the lich. Selren did as he was told when the statue blocked the passage, turning on his heel and breaking into a mad sprint as shadows began to dance along the palms of the shadow mercenary, leaping forth and turning into shadow men. Each step made him feel dizzy, rushed, terrified beyond rational explanation. The world span, and he felt as if the manor were being turned on its side and that he would spill through the glass. It wasn't. But, spilling through the numerous windows lining the hallway were more and more ghouls. While on the run Selren notched his long oak bow with minor runic enchantments and aimed fr the closest ghoul. The arrow took fight, taking the beast in its eye socket before it could leap from the window sill it was perched on. The arrow managed to knock its target back outside, and immediately the creature was back up and howling like a frenzied demon. It was back in the window, several feet behind Selren who had fired on another 2 ghouls. They fell, only to get right back up. "If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears!" Selren skid to a stop as the doors to the garden flew open. A pair of blood ghouls dropped to all fours, growled something in their undead tongues and charged on all fours like wild animals. "Any takers?" Selren joked, very, very half-heartedly. "Didn't think so." The roughian notched two archers which quickly tripled to six because of his arcane ability with the bow. The two physical arrows soared forward, one striking a ghoul in the chest, and the other ghoul dodged by leaping on the wall and crawling like a spider. The arcane arrows whistled through the air leaving trails of what looked like purple dust; they bobbed and weaved like leaves in the wind, before all fur found their targets. The wall crawler was pinned to the wall by its neck and left hand. Still more ghouls broke through the window, entering into mad frenzies for flesh and blood. Most were behind them, screaming, licking their rotten lips with snakish tongues. "Hurry! These Isles aren't gonna be my grave!"
Takuma continued onward, stopping only once as a ghoul jumped from a window in front of him. He quickly began beating it with a series of swift strikes from the handle of his whip, which he used as a nunchuck. He drew his shortsword, chopped it a few times, then stabbed it up through its jaw until the blade protruded from the top of its skull. He pulled the blade out and continued with the others. Aftar the Arcane Archer shot the two blood ghouls, he continued to watch them, especially the one not pinned to the wall, making sure that they wouldn't attack again.
Grand Viper
The mercenary woman swept her hand in front of her, sending out a cascade of shadows at the ghouls. They reached out and started to drag them into the thick, black pool of darkness that they created. "My suggestion..." The woman hissed, "Is to keep moving and keep killing until zey are deterred! Go!" Every time a ghoul was killed by her, the shadows would reach into the ghoul's carcass and regenerate it. It became a thrall under her control that would attack its undead brethren. Who can withstand against your might? None of them. Push yourself. Gain control. They are yours to command.
"The ground floor is becoming a death trap. I'm thinking the second floor might be slighty better off. We can jump down to the garden from there." Lizzie shouted, once more forced to draw the sword and cleaving through ghoul faces- she only began to realize what it was going to do. The sword itself radiated a beacon of power again, drawing ghouls to it. Lizzie was quick to notice this, and, against all pretense that she should have her family weapon at all times, called out to Karthus. "Lich! I'm loaning you my sword for a minute! Return it to me when we're outside!" In faith she tosses the undead beacon to the Deathsinger, hoping he'd catch it. The reason the sword attracted lesser tiers of dead monsters so was that it could grant intelligence, sentience and power to lowly undead- power and dominion over others of their kind. Lizzie was forced to use her baton, the tazing effect of little use- but at least the ghouls would hopefully now make a beeline for their strongest member, jumping over railings and obstacles to reach the promise of transfiguration. "The stairs are clear! Come on!"
The mercenary woman nodded and ran behind Lizzie, "Let us be moving, fraulein. My children should be able to aid ze lich quite aptly vhile we run. Schnell!"
"I'm right behind you," rasps Cruciatus. He follows the retreating members of the group as quickly as he can, but due to the nature of the wound he had taken, he begins to fall behind.

Maxim Magazine is reportedly heading to television as new owners Darden Media Group aim to launch a Maxim-branded TV channel and an indie music label. The publication will stick around too, as it remains one of the largest men's magazines despite a downturn in circulation and recent cutback from 12 to 10 issues annually.
One pay-TV operator is already on board with two more reportedly in the wings as Darden's plan to distribute Maxim TV to 35 million households by year's end comes to fruition. "Although the publishing industry has seen seismic shifts over the past several years, the opportunities to create powerful, transmedia brands that engage consumers and advertisers on multiple platforms is significantly on the rise," Darden said in a press release.
No stranger to programming, Maxim has produced one-off programs for cable including "Hot 100" for VH1, video content for its website and YouTube, apps for mobile and Xbox Live, and has plans to roll out similar apps for PlayStation 3 and set-top devices like Roku.Continue reading...

Every automaker is trying to win the tech race inside the car and under the hood. Now, Nissan has added another playing field: the driver's wrist.
On the heels of Samsung's debut of its Galaxy Gear smartwatch and the awaited unveiling of Apple's reported iWatch, Nissan introduced the Nismo Concept Watch at the Frankfurt Motor Show today, calling it "the first smartwatch to connect a driver to the car." The clamp-style, sleek-metal accessory is named for the company's racing brand, and its first applications are coming as a way to connect race drivers more closely to their cars.
Like the concept cars that are introduced at auto shows, the new Nismo watch is far from a production model as well. But it already has digital-tech cognoscenti enthusing.Continue reading...

RadioShack is bidding to renew its relevance in a fresh way this week, offering a "cord-cutting" deal on high-definition digital TV antennas to the millions of consumers in some major national markets that have been blacked out of CBS in the network's continuing deadlock with Time Warner Cable.
Under new management and in an attempt to begin rolling back a long tide of red ink, Radio Shack has turned toward a new logo, new slogan ("Let's Play"), new store concept and new positioning that recasts the brand as an even better digital playground for Millennials than their local Verizon Wireless or AT&T store. At the same time, RadioShack says it wants to fortify the loyalty of its traditional audience of electronics hobbyists.
The brand's new promotion ratchets up RadioShack's immediacy a few notches. Saying it makes "cutting the cable" convenient and easy, the company is offering a 25 percent discount on its best-selling HDTV antenna in areas affected by the blackout, through September 7.Continue reading...

Turner Broadcasting is turning its attention to digital with the launch of Upwave, a new interactive site—and eventual TV program—with a focus on health and wellness.
The new venture is being launched first on the web with a branded YouTube channel that features original programming such as "Why Do Men Have Nipples?" based on the book by Mark Leyner and Dr. Billy Goldberg, as well as tools, quizzes and Q&As with industry experts. The digital effort precedes its December TV debut on HLN.
"Upwave is excited to help people make positive choices in their lives through entertaining and engaging content," Molly Battin, SVP/GM said in a press release. "Our goal is to inspire people to get up, get moving and enjoy what it means to 'live life on the up,' experiencing healthy balanced living through the lens of entertainment..."Continue reading...

With the announcement of a pending deal with Viacom to stream content from such channels as MTV, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon, Sony has essentially put itself far outfront in the race to create a workable online pay-TV model.
The deal is the first of its kind, further pitting the company against a long list of rivals, including Google, Intel, Apple, Netflix and Microsoft, that are all racing to nail down a subscription-based TV streaming system.
Sony's "over the top" model could disrupt the current ecosystem, pitting cable companies against each other, however it "might also be the tonic that slows the arrival of the 'capocalypse'—where enough people 'cut the cord' and drop cable altogether that the whole industry collapses," Forbes explains. Sony's not-yet-named service works on Sony-branded TVs and PlayStation but will not offer a la carte channel selection, still delivering content through cable's tried and true bundled model.Continue reading...

Two of America's most venerable print brands are embracing the currency du jour by making greater investments in video content to extend the life and quality of its print features.
TIME magazine has launched Red Border Films (aptly named for the magazine's red print border) which will produce monthly 10-minute short documentaries and two long-form projects per year. Born out of the brand's hour-long HBO and CNN special on interviews with people affected by the 9/11 attacks, the films will serve to extend a story beyond what is published in print or online.
"Red Border Films will combine TIME's authoritative journalism and perspective with the unique power of cinematic storytelling," Kira Pollack, Time's director of photography said, according to Deadline.Continue reading...

In an effort to skirt the effects of the waxing and waning film industry, the studio behind one of Hollywood's most lucrative film franchises and endearing characters like Shrek and Buzz Lightyear is making a strong play for small-screen audiences.
However, DreamWorks Animation is outright skipping Cable TV and going straight to popular streaming services like Netflix. Through a multi-year deal signed in June, the studio will create 1,200 hours of original programming for Netflix and German broadcaster Super RTL featuring characters from popular franchises like The Croods and Turbo, along with long-standing characters like Casper, Lassie, Mr. Magoo and more from Classic Media's archives, and seasonal specials like Frosty the Snowman.
The deal will fill a gaping hole left on Netflix by Nickelodeon after the service failed to renew its contract with Viacom.Continue reading...

Maren Schmidt: Profanity: A sign of limited ability
Tuesday, December 8, 2009
Maren Schmidt, Kids Talk
Maren Schmidt's "Kids Talk" column appears Tuesdays in the Craig Daily Press.
A visit to an elementary school opened my eyes to something that never would have happened a few years ago at a "good" school.
Profanity from the children.
This R-rated classroom wouldn't have been allowed even a PG-13 rating.
I'm amazed, as a classroom observer, how the children act as if I'm invisible. The children quickly and correctly surmise that I'm not a teacher or a parent and therefore have no authority over their behavior.
When the second-grade boys thought no one was looking in the hallways to the bathrooms, or the blocked alcove of the classroom, inappropriate behavior erupted in words and gestures that I'm sure parents and grandparents would be appalled to witness.
Profanity in children is a sign of two basic things: a call for leadership to the adults in the child's world of home and school, and/or an inability on the part of the children to express their emotions, needs and desires.
What do leaders do?
Leaders develop people, empower others to do the right things, give clear and true direction for growth and learning, and use principles and ethics to guide. When our children use profanity, it should indicate to us that they have lost a key connection to trust in the adults in their world.
We need to step back and consider the situation and determine whether we have been leading or managing. When we are too concerned with managing by taking care of things instead of people, controlling things and people, and controlling outcomes without regards to people, our leadership stumbles.
Profanity is also a sign of limited skills, vocabulary being on top of the list.
Can't express frustration? Perhaps a word beginning with "f" is used. Can't express your desires or needs to the adults around you? Perhaps curse words provide the edginess that makes adults take notice, and if not, start to escalate the profanity user as a leader in a leaderless group.
We need to step up to the leadership challenge for our children by providing them effective and appropriate ways to express their emotions, needs and desires.
Many adults only can express four feelings: mad, sad, glad and bad.
Let's help our children learn the emotional vocabulary necessary to navigate their way through life. Here is a list of words from "200 Ways to Raise a Boy's Emotional Intelligence" by Will Glennon, that can help our children learn to express their emotions, needs and desires in ways other than profanity.
Safe, relaxed, satisfied, undesirable, lethargic, needy, confident, optimistic, loved, insulted, resentful, ignored, excited, energized, connected, empty, trapped, obligated, mused, fortunate, effective, rotten, infuriated, idiotic, empowered, spirited, peaceful, puzzled, resigned, terrified, special, wonderful, vibrant, regretful, intolerant, gullible, respected, fantastic, elated, hesitant, horrible, hated, eater, excellent, engaged, indifferent, inept, invisible, tremendous, tipsy, tingly, lonely, lousy, lost, forgiven, funny, fearless, grumpy, guilty, gullible, enthusiastic, enriched, and empathetic.
Let's step up to the challenge of providing clear and true leadership for our children, in word, thought and deed. It would be a %*#@ shame not to.

I did not see the use of a bar of soap anywhere in her solutions to the profanity problem with the children. Like in the movie, A Christmas Story, Ralphie got the bar of soap for using the F word. That solution seemed to work just fine with the generations prior without 25 years of education on how to negotiate with a child. There are a some adults in this community who need to have a bar of soap too!

How about paddling thier little backsides?
All parents should be required by the school board, to allow the teachers to spank thier children.
If parents don't want to do that, they should take the children home to teach them, where they will have to deal with the discipline issues.
A few spankings in front of the whole class, should be enough to embarrass a child into proper behavior.

($135; 62% cabernet sauvignon, 17% cabernet franc, 16% merlot and 5% petit verdot) Cooler on the nose than the 2002 despite showing a near-roasted ripeness, with aromas of black raspberry, licorice, minerals and flowers. Thick, dense and superripe, with compelling sweetness and layers of dark fruit flavor. Wonderfully full and deep wine with extraordinary palate coverage. The finish offers explosive persistence and the thoroughly ripe, sweet tannins reach the front teeth. This has really del ivered on its early promise.
Author: Stephen TanzerProfessional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
A great, great success (and of course, this is Knight's Valley material), the 2002 Les Pavots, which I loved from barrel as well as bottle, still has a good 20+ years of life ahead of it. At this point, it is tasting like a vigorous young adolescent in its evolutionary development. The blend in 2002 from the winery was 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot. Moreover there are just under 3,000 cases of this spectacular wine, which I'm hoping many readers have cellared away. Inky black/purple, with a nose of incense, licorice, balsamic and Asian soy notes interwoven with blackberry, blueberry and hints of truffle and camphor, this wine is full-bodied, opulent and voluptuously textured, with sensational mid-palate, depth and richness. This is a killer Bordeaux-styled, ripe, exuberant, flamboyant red from Peter Michael that stands as one of the all-time great Les Pavots cuvees ever made. It ideally needs another 3-4 years of cellaring, although it is quite accessible and should keep for a minimum of 20 or more years. Bravo!
Drink Dates: 2015-2035Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
Rich, concentrated and complex, it's also a bit earthy and reduced. The core flavors of currant, anise, leather, fresh-brewed coffee and sage are dense and multifaceted, though the flavors drift to dry and leathery on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Tasted four times, with consistent notes. 2,713 cases made.

Garrecht Gassen: Can we just stop for a sec?
No magic wand helps us pay more attention to what's at hand.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Calling all mainstream Republican voters
Don't like the tea party? Vote in the primary.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Schools have been way short of money, but how were lawmakers to know?
It's safe to say that no public school in Arizona has ever suffered from the Legislature's too-bountiful largesse. Quite the opposite.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: How one Tucson school seeks to close the poverty gap
This is the thing about public schools. They exist to educate kids. But that's tilting at windmills if other basic problems - food, shelter, clothing, safety - aren't addressed.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: How one school seeks to close the gap
Principal McAllister, the human banana split: "I am very cold, I am very sticky, I am delicious. But most of all, I am proud of my Walter Douglas Bulldogs!"
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Legislators need to walk in these shoes
I have this fantasy: Every elected official in Arizona, particularly those in the Legislature, spends two weeks straight as a substitute teacher in a public school whose students live in poverty - a place like Walter Douglas Elementary School.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: ProEnglish group speaks xenophobic language of 'The Code'
'American" doesn't mean "white." But before we get to that, a quick detour.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: What would our Founding Fathers and Mothers think of us today?
Looking around at the folks gathered at a good friend's home for a potluck dinner and a clear view of the fireworks on Independence Day, the inevitable question arrived:
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Truth to tell, Leif Garrett is not my brother - yet, in a larger sense …
Some family is created through relation, some through love.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Using moms to argue equal pay same as using dads to justify unequal wages
So it turns out that the Equal Rights Amendment had nothing to do with laundry detergent.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Let's pin the issue of sexual assault where it belongs: on the attackers
Let's talk about the rapists. Conversations, including in those in Congress, about how to get thousands of military women who have been sexually assaulted to believe, despite ample evidence to the contrary, that their accounts will be heard and addressed with justice skips an elemental part …
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: The 'wouldn't have prevented' gambit on gun-safety laws
Few words are worth less in the campaign to make our communities safer from gun violence than "But it wouldn't have prevented …"
Sarah Gassen: Arizona's follicle conservatives
I'm following the ever-so-straight line that Arizona Rep. David Gowan has so helpfully drawn for the public, connecting the dots straight from health-care to coiffures.
Sarah Gassen: Boston wounded don't need to "overcome" for us
When Boston was attacked and limbs went flying, people who thought their day would be spent watching runners cross the finish line found themselves on an unwanted journey.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: A good day for criminals who want to buy a gun
Too many senators support easy access to guns for criminals and people who are dangerously mentally ill.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: Kelly is a target because he wants to curb guns; ignore the distractions
We've come to the distraction part of the gun "debate." Look over there! It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Mark Kelly doing something!
Sarah Gassen: Our lives are kaleidoscopes of tiny, isolated moments in time
We've perfected traveling through time and space without leaving our seats. Sitting side-by-side, our molecules are close to one another, but we're miles and galaxies away. It's always been that way, but back then we called it imagination.
Sarah Gassen: Ochoa school's Peace Garden is an award-winning family affair
Kids know that to get things done, you have to accept that you can't do it alone. And you have to ask.
Sarah Garrecht Gassen: The sequester is going to hurt, no matter what the seed-eaters say
Barring any last minute "miracles" to call off this Congress-inflicted fiasco, automatic federal budget cuts will kick in. The reductions total $1.2 trillion spread over nine years. The first cuts will be $85 billion by the end of September.

GNOME Foundation's First Quarterly Report
The GNOME Foundation wants to issue regular quarterly reports to document the work on the free desktop. A Q2 2009 report is a good start.
Up to now the foundation behind the free desktop has been reporting annually about their activities. Executive director Stormy Peters decided to issue quarterly reports, and this is its first. The GNOME Quarterly Report, an 18-page PDF, covers activities of the project teams for June, July and August 2009, and their joint work with companies such as Red Hat, Canonical and Sun. Also included is a brief page on income and expenses, with a lion's share of the $65,000 income coming from the Desktop Summit sponsorship fees at Gran Canaria, although the costs, income and expenses for the conference still need to be split with cosponsor KDE.
Further finances show that another $12,392 income came from the marketing team and their Friends of GNOME initiative. Spokesperson for the team Paul Cutler reported on the record-breaking success of the fundraising. The marketing team also plans a GNOME store for the third quarter for purchasing branded merchandise, as well as a worldwide press team to interact with the media.
Dave Neary reported on GNOME events and also acted as spokesperson for the GNOME Mobile team. He referred to the Nokia-Intel agreement and the release of GNOME mobile technologies used in the Moblin platform, the oFono infrastructure and the SyncEvolution plugin.
The GNOME usability team, represented by Calum Benson, reported on their experiments with GNOME 2.28 toolbars and whether labels would be better placed next to, instead of under, the toolbar icons. The team wants to work with Canonical to make life easier for newcomers as part of the Hundred Paper Cuts project to identify and remove 100 obstacles to usability.
The GNOME I18N team reported that GNOME 2.6 supports 48 languages and the documentation team that all newly produced work is under Creative Commons CC-BY-SA 3.0 licensing. Furthermore, the Bugsquad team reported fixing 12,549 bugs, and much more. The full Q2 report along with the previous annual reports are available at the foundation website.

Enhancing cybersecurity is a mission objective for intelligence agencies
during the next four years, according to an unclassified version of the
2009 National Intelligence Strategy released today.
The NIS, from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, lays
out what intelligence agencies hope to accomplish over the next four
years through mission objectives, and how the agencies plan to do so
with enterprise objectives.
Dennis Blair, the director of national intelligence, told reporters
today that the country has to be aggressive in protecting its own
secrets and stealing those of other nations. Throughout the world, he
said, "information is moving to networks and that'where you have to go
to learn what other countries and other groups are up to, and that's
what you have to be able to protect in order to be able to do your own
China and Russia in particular are very aggressive in the cyber world,
Blair added.

Monday, July 21 12:57:14
Bord na Mona today announced record profits for year ended March 2014 with after-tax profits surging by a whopping 263pc to E33.5m.
The annual report, launched this morning by the company in Dublin, shows an operating profit that rose 114pc to E50.3m and core earningts (as measured by EBITDA) that rose 48pc to just under E91m while turnover came in at E426.8 million, a small increase on 2013.
Speaking this afternoon at the launch of the annual report, Gabriel D'Arcy, CEO, Bord na Mona said the results are particularly encouraging as the Group continues to expand into other more sustainable and non-peat related business areas.
A significant focus during the year was the continued expansion of the wind energy portfolio, with Mountlucas and Bruckana wind farm investments of E175 million in total nearing completion and expected to be generating revenue from the second half of this year. 2014 also saw the Drehid Landfill-Gas Utilisation Plant being commissioned in the Resource Recovery business, with capacity to provide energy for 8,500 homes across the Leinster region. Edenderry Power Station ran as a 25pc co-fired station (peat/biomass) for the year further contributing to Ireland meeting its RES-E targets. Solid fuel sales were also relatively strong, despite a negative impact resulting from the introduction of the Carbon Tax and a relatively mild winter.
Resource Recovery posted much improved results, reaffirming the strength of the business as it continues to emerge from an extremely challenging operating environment. Sustained efforts to reduce operating costs together with the investment in technology in recent years position this business well for further expansion opportunities, the State company said.
"In the coming year, Bord na Mona will be pressing ahead with a number of significant projects as part of our investment programme, with Mountlucas and Bruckana coming on-stream and the development of Oweninny Wind Farm (a joint venture with the ESB) also progressing. These significant infrastructural projects, combined with our drive for cost effective operations and continued focus on competitiveness and innovation across the Group, are part of our on-going sustainable business strategy. The results released today vindicate the company's strategy to build a sustainable future for Bord na Mona, its shareholders, employees and the communities in which we operate and serve," said John Horgan, Chairman, Bord na Mona.

You make the call: What Texans blog posts do you want?
