While attribution can be difficult in the physical world, it is incredibly tricky in the digital world. Not only are there effective tools to remain anonymous but there are equally as many tools to make it look like it is attributed to a certain source when it is actually another.
Much like treating a serious illness, the best remedy for an advanced cyber attack is early detection and aggressive treatment.
Mr. Hartz is recognized as a pioneer in leading transformational business solutions for Fortune 500 global enterprises.
This has been a cruel summer of cyber-attacks against American companies.
NetAnalyzer is a real-time malware behavior detection and analysis solution that allows organizations to stop attacks pre-breach. The software continuously monitors network and endpoint activities for malicious actions, allowing users to quickly identify advanced or zero-day malware infections without signatures or sandboxes. More info.
Cloud security, mobile security, advanced behavioral detection, and a few other surprises mark this latest crop of newcomers.
TaaSera Inc. has raised $4 million of a proposed $10 million mixed offering of shares and warrants, according to an SEC filing.
TaaSera develops cloud-based security solutions and specializes in runtime behavior detection to identify previously unseen attacks and infections before they cause extensive damage or loss of data. The company's patented behavior detection capabilities enables the client to observe attacks being carried out, and provides them with suitable and necessary information to defend and mitigate the threats.
The company was co-founded in 2011 by Chief Technology Officer Srinivas Kumar. C. Scott Hartz, a veteran of more than four decades in strategy and technology consulting, serves as the CEO.
Security pros say latest watering hole attack patterns expose the 'ecosystem of mediocrity' set out by today's baseline of protection.
Experts say a zero-day attack hidden in a U.S. government website highlights key trends in contemporary targeted attacks: Organizations don't possess the layered security to ward off never-before-seen attacks, and they can't effectively respond until damage is done.
Security threats abound in the enterprise. Today's IT security professionals must worry about malware, spyware, hackers, DDoS attacks, hijacked USB drives, spies, cyberwar and other vulnerabilities too numerous to mention.
Fortunately, technological innovations are emerging to help block these types of attacks. Companies such as Seclore, for example, offer services that are designed to protect not just the delivery of documents outside an organization, but controlling how long someone has access to those docs. With new kill-chain tactics, meanwhile, a start-up such as CloudStrike says it can determine not just the nature of a new attack but also develop a profile of the attacker.
These innovations, along with four others, described below might be the answer to a common dilemma: Relying too long on the standard security techniques that a large company installed long ago.
TaaSERA: Analyzing Communication Patterns of Malware
It takes more than a clever product name to block malware attacks. TaaSERA does have a clever name—it means Trust as a Service—but the inner working of the detection engine should appeal to CSOs everywhere. The analyzer is what you might call "zero minute" detection; it looks for trace signs of a new malware agent such as the tell-tale signs of infection. The service goes beyond the signature-based security tools that block known viruses, though, using "correlated sequence of inbound exploits, binary downloads, command and control communication and outbound scans" to diagnose malware attacks.
Hewlett Packard Co. is taking a few more steps forward in advanced threat detection arenas. This time, the Palo Alto, Calif.-based PC manufacturer partnered to launch a threat service that puts the company a little more on par with hardware rivals already in the threat services game.
The Commander-in-Chief has made a massive troop reassignment to U.S. Cyber Command and pushed new legislation and executive orders expanding pre-emptive cyber attacks, but it'll take more innovation than government can muster to win the war against hackers with cheap, destructive weapons.
Amid growing reports that Chinese hackers attacked U.S. newspapers and the Energy Department, a security startup company recently announced it is offering new technology that its founders say can detect cyberattacks and counter them in real time.
As enterprises bring threat intelligence feeds into risk management equations, they could gain a greater fluidity in risk-based decision-making.
Identifying the groups behind attacks is still a dicey proposition, but security firms are collecting more information on attackers' techniques and their infrastructure.

CUPERTINO, CA – TaaSera Inc. today announced the release of the NetTrust 2.0 Enterprise Edition for accelerated cyber security incident response and forensic analysis. NetTrust continuously monitors network traffic to correlate and analyze risky behaviors associated with advanced threats and coordinated attacks.
Every day, incident response teams identify, analyze and respond to millions of individual security events. It's easy to miss critical alerts, and hard to connect the dots across every stage of the cyber kill chain. As a result, it takes an average 8 months to identify compromised systems inside the network perimeter; by then it's too late.
Traditional tools require security analysts to collect, analyze and interpret forensic evidence manually. In contrast, NetTrust's "FAAR Sight" solution (Forensic Analysis and Advanced Response) automates triage, diagnosis and remediation by providing threat relevance and context across every stage of the infection lifecycle.
"We're very excited to announce the next generation of our flagship product," said TaaSera CEO Scott Hartz. "NetTrust allows security professionals to prioritize threats, resulting in maximized efficiency and valuable time saved responding to incidents. By assessing their enterprise risk profile at any given moment, they take a much more proactive security posture."
FAAR Sight's advanced threat visualization automatically "connects the dots" across millions of events to deliver risk-based systems analysis, threat classification and forensic drill-down. With NetTrust, security professionals, operations and incident response teams can quickly identify compromised systems, streamline response time and reduce their window of exposure.
Mike Thomas, Senior Security Architect at Erie Insurance, a Fortune 500 company, said, "TaaSera offers a unique approach for accelerating the collection and analysis of forensic evidence critical to effective cyber incident response. By providing context across the post-infection, pre-breach behaviors exhibited by advanced threats, the technology provides a more proactive way to respond to threats."
NetTrust 2.0 Enterprise Edition includes enhanced threat visualization for ease of deployment, operations and analysis in either physical or virtualized environments. The software includes an integrated suite of automatic threat intelligence updates, as well as comprehensive REST APIs for integration with existing security infrastructure.
Also featured are enhanced rules for monitoring insider threats across web, application and database tiers, and integration with SIEM, Active Directory and vulnerability assessment solutions like QualysGuard and Rapid7.
NetTrust 2.0 Enterprise Edition is available for download today as a software-only virtual appliance, or as a network appliance. NetTrust is easy to use and quick to deploy, without the need to rely on signatures or build custom rules.
For a live demonstration, or to request a no-risk NetTrust security assessment, visit http://taasera.com or call TaaSera at 855-TaaSera (855-822-7372).

CUPERTINO, CA – April 25, 2013 – TaaSera, Inc., an information security technology company focused on advanced malware behavior detection, today announced significant new functionality for AWARE NetAnalyzer™, a real-time malware behavior detection solution that allows enterprises to identify attacks before they result in a breach. Based on run-time malware behavior analysis, rather than signatures or sandboxes, the new version features tight integration with TaaSera's new Attacker Intelligence Feed. Integrated together the updated AWARE NetAnalyzer monitors external communications with malicious sites for faster, real-time malware detection, and seamless integration with the HP ArcSight security information and event management (SIEM) tool for improved reporting and analysis.
In addition, TaaSera released a new Malware Behavior Model which combines endpoint malware behavior with network behavior research from SRI International (formerly Stanford Research Institute). TaaSera's "Advanced Infection Lifecycle Model" creates a comprehensive 12-stage behavior model that ALL malware exhibit prior to breach or theft of confidential data, personal information or other intellectual property. AWARE NetAnalyzer detects these network behaviors, including egg downloads, peer-to-peer infections, command-and-control (C&C) coordination and other malicious activities in live enterprise networks.
TaaSera Attacker Threat Feed Integration
The AWARE NetAnalyzer software tool provides integration with the AWARE Attacker Intelligence Feed, a rich database of IP and URL addresses that provides contextual intelligence about the nature of an attack (malware propagator, botnet C&C, etc.), as well as the specific industry sector being targeted (financial, government, etc.). The Attacker Intelligence Feed offers over 200,000 daily IPs focused solely on malware and specific malicious sites that TaaSera has identified as actively propagating malware. Enterprises can license the AWARE Attacker Intelligence Feed for multiple purposes, for example:
• To embed in existing security tools for monitoring or blocking connections to malicious sites.
• For enterprises to monitor their own IPs or ASN Range, or those of their partners/supply chain.
• For enterprises or analysts who want to conduct their own historical analysis on threats from a particular region, or volume of threats attacking a particular industry sector via the AWARE Attacker Threat Intelligence Portal.
"Integrating our Attacker Intelligence Feed with NetAnalyzer marries global threats with localized network sensor information giving an enterprise a complete view of malware targeting their industry sector or organization," said Scott Hartz, CEO TaaSera. "Combining an outside-in view from our Attacker Intelligence Feed with our inside-out view with NetAnalyzer allows us to identify threats early, reducing the window of exposure. We are also reaching out to companies we find in our Attacker Intelligence Feed because they have machines that are attempting to infect other companies. I believe we all have an obligation to quickly address malware in our enterprises, not only because it is the largest single type of cyberattack resulting in a security breach, but it negatively affects our global cyberthreat level."
Today, the AWARE Attacker Intelligence Service identifies more than 10,000 new sites daily, and contains more than 200,000 malware IP addresses, which quantifies the enormity of the malware problem enterprises now face. In recent months, the Attacker Intelligence Feed has detected an increase in Botnet Command and Control operating from Amsterdam, with a high correlation to sites associated with the Russian Business Network, a large criminal enterprise that uses malware to steal enterprise information or launch attacks on others.
HP ArcSight SIEM Integration
AWARE NetAnalyzer detects diverse network transactions to predict the order and time it takes to elude conventional network defenses. Users can choose to export alerts to SIEM platforms like HP ArcSight using the Common Event Format. Additionally, by identifying multi-vector communication sequences that occur during an infection process, AWARE NetAnalyzer generates alerts and infection warnings that are visible to security and risk administrators via a graphical user interface (GUI) for reporting and detailed analysis.
"In a very short period of time, our technologists and researchers are building one of the most powerful advanced malware behavior detection tools on the market. By integrating our Attacker Intelligence Service, expanding our malware behavior detection model, and offering third-party connectivity to HP ArcSight, AWARE NetAnalyzer is engineered to stay ahead of advanced and zero-day attacks," said Srinivas Kumar, CTO of TaaSera.
Introducing TaaSERA's Advanced Malware Behavior Detection Model
After several years of research, SRI International, with funding from the U.S. Army Research Office, developed a patent-pending technology for identifying malware based on an eight-stage lifecycle of behavioral activity: Infection Preparation, Egg Download, Peer Infection, Command & Control Communications, System Scanning, Attack Preparation, Malicious Outbound Scan, and Data Exfiltration. TaaSera's AWARE NetAnalyzer uses the Advanced Infection Model to find previously unknown threats.
As malware behavior continues to evolve, TaaSera researchers extended the 8 stages to 12 by adding localized malware behaviors only detectable on endpoints, such as local reconnaissance-collecting keystrokes, password or confidential data, or malware that didn't enter via the corporate network, such as thumb drives and unauthorized personal devices. Security and risk management teams need more than perimeter security; they need continuous monitoring with and between internal endpoints, servers, network devices, virtual machines, software defined networks, and mobile or cloud infrastructure to truly defend against today's advanced attacks.
See all 12 stages of the Advanced Malware Behavior Detection Model.
AWARE NetAnalyzer is available today. If you are interested in evaluating the latest version of NetAnalyzer in your environment, contact TaaSera on the web, or call 855-TAASERA x702.
CUPERTINO, Calif., February 26, 2013 — TaaSera, Inc., an information security technology company focused on advanced malware behavior detection, today announced that analysis of the TaaSera Threat Feed, the industry's most dynamic real-time malware threat reporting service, is now available to the public as part of regular threat intelligence briefings from HP Security Research.
The TaaSera Threat Feed Service focuses solely on malware, particularly malicious sites that TaaSera has identified as actively propagating malware. This service can be used to enhance enterprise remediation processes through:
Blocking connections to stop downloads from malicious sites;
Identifying individual or hosted machines infected with malware; or
Strategic insight into the geographies and types of malware targeting specific sectors, such as financial institutions or government.
TaaSera's Threat Feed, which HP Security Research leverages today in its threat briefings, already contains more than 200,000 malware IP addresses and offers insight into the location of infected machines and the industrial sectors they are attacking.
"Our malware threat feed grows at a rate of approximately 3,000 new malicious sites per day," said Srinivas Kumar, CTO, TaaSera. "Amazingly, we identify more than 10,000 new sites per day, but we filter out the noise of dormant sites that ceased generating malicious traffic, which demonstrates how quickly cyber criminals change IP addresses to launch attacks."
"TaaSera's malware Threat Feed is one of the most dynamic and innovative in the industry," said Jacob West, CTO of HP Enterprise Security Products. "HP Security Research is mandated to bring actionable security intelligence to market. Our new threat briefings, which include an audio podcast and accompanying report, leverage TaaSERA's malware threat intelligence to give the community timely insight into malware outbreaks and how they impact organizations today."

Today's "Oprah" focused on the porn industry and how more women are watching adult films these days. While the show's highlight, for me, was seeing journalist Lisa Ling's reaction as she watched a sex scene being filmed, Oprah's interview with former porn star Jenna Jameson, who is now retired from the industry, was fascinating, as well. Check out the clip above, where she talks about how many sex partners she's had and what job she wanted when she was a little girl. Keep reading »

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
Support for HTML5 in CSS3 was one of the most anticipated additions to Dreamweaver in recent memory. Really, Adobe wasted no time in putting these capabilities in the hands of designers with the release of the HTML5 pack update earlier in 2010, making Dreamweaver one of the first web development tools to support the emerging standards. After initially putting out the HTML5 pack, Adobe added these features to the 11/03 Dreamweaver update, which is available on adobe.com for users of Dreamweaver CS5.
So even though technically these features have been available in Dreamweaver in a previous update, in this chapter I want to go over many of the new HTML5 and CSS3 features. Dreamweaver CS5.5 marks the first release that these features are native to Dreamweaver without requiring an additional update. I want to start with the options that Dreamweaver gives you when creating new HTML5 documents. Before I get too deep into this, I think it's worth mentioning here that I'm not going to go into a great amount of detail about HTML5 and CSS3 and their capabilities; I'm just going to cover Dreamweaver's support for them.
For more on HTML5 and CSS3, check out some of the related titles in the lynda.com Online Training Library, including my HTML5 First Look and CSS3 First Look titles. Now, the first time that you're likely to encounter options relating to HTML5 is when creating a new HTML document in Dreamweaver, so that's a logical place for us to start. So I'm just going to go to File and choose New, and that brings up the New Document dialog box. Now, I'm just going to start with my defaults here, so I'm going to choose a Blank Page. Page Type is going to be HTML, and the Layout is going to be none.
But now, when I go over here to my options for this page, instead of choosing the XHTML 1.0 transitional doctype, which apparently is the default here, I can grab this pulldown menu and I notice that the HTML5 doctype is now supported. So I'm going to go ahead and select that and click Create, or Choose, and here we have a brand-new HTML5 document. Now, you'll notice it's a lot less cluttered than previous versions. We have a very short doctype, so it's a very simple HTML declaration, and we have one element that you're probably not used to seeing, which is the meta element with the character set attribute, set to utf-8, which is just basically setting the character set encoding for the page. And that's it.
We've just got a really simple clean document that now we can go in and add any of the elements that we need to. Now, it would be really inefficient if the only way I could get an HTML5 document is opining up that dialog box and choosing that doctype every single time. There are a lot of different ways to create documents inside Dreamweaver. What if you want to just work with HTML5 documents from here on out, or maybe you have a project where you want all the documents inside that project to be HTML5? Well, for that we can go into our Preferences. So what I'm going to do is just close this document without saving it, and I'm going to go up to Edit and choose Preferences.
If you're on the Mac, you're going go to Dreamweaver and choose Preferences. And I want to go down to my New Document category. Now, currently you can see the Default preference for Dreamweaver is to choose XHTML 1.0 Transitional. If I grab that pulldown menu, notice I can also ask for HTML5 to be the Default Document Type. As soon as I click OK, now it doesn't matter which method I used to create a new document, even the Welcome Screen, I'm going to get an HTML5 document, so that's really cool.
Now, we have other options available to us as well. So I'm going to close this again, and I want to bring that New Document dialog back, so I'm going to go right up to File and choose New one more time. Now, this time instead of choosing a Blank Page with no Layout, I want to go down to the bottom of these layouts, and I notice that I have two additional starter pages that weren't in CS5: I have the HTML5: 2 column fixed layout and the HTML5: 3 columns fixed. So I'm just going to go ahead and choose the 2 column fixed, and I notice when I do that the DocType is automatically selected for me.
I'm going to make sure the Layout CSS is added to head, and I'm going to go ahead and click Create. Now, if you've ever used a starter page before, you know what it does is it just sort of gives you a page with an existing structure and the CSS for the layout already written. So it gives you a nice little head start on creating your pages. Now, if I switch back over to Code view, you'll notice that if I scroll all the way up to the top, there is our HTML5 doctype, there is our meta tag, and here are the embedded styles that we asked to be placed in the head of the document. Now, there is something about these styles that I want to point out to you guys.
If I scroll down towards the bottom of these, you're going to notice that we have some CSS support built in for these HTML5 elements. That's normally something you'd have to do yourself, but using the starter pages, Dreamweaver will go ahead and put that in there for you. We also have a nice little conditional comment that basically says, hey, if Internet Explorer 9 is being used, go out to Google Code and find the HTML5 shiv. Essentially what this file does for you is go ahead and create those elements. Since they didn't exist in earlier versions of Internet Explorer, it will go ahead and create them for you, so that Internet Explorer will know what those new HTML5 elements are and it will render them properly.
So I'm going to go ahead and save this page in the 02_01 as html5.htm. In addition to supporting the HTML5 doctype and properly structuring your initial page, as we just saw, Dreamweaver gives you the option of these two new starter pages that include HTML5 structure and page layout CSS that are both designed to get you up and running with HTML5 quickly. Now, whether you're going to be creating your own pages or letting Dreamweaver give you a head start, make sure that you check your options carefully when creating new documents to make sure you're getting the structure and doctype that you expect.

I cats. I like dogs, too, but cats are easier to take care of. I've been bitten by both cats/dogs so I'm unbiased!
I like dogs and cats...but dogs waaaaaay more. If your dog is trained well, is just as easy as a cat and no litter box...peeeeewww.
I hate having to get up really early to walk the dog. And stay outside while it's freezing cold, raining, snowing, or dark out. I sometimes forget I even have a cat because she's so quiet.
I have never seen a dog totally head-palm a kid and make it face-plant, how is a dog better than a cat?
Still not as good. HEAD-PALM SHOVE DOWN BABY FACE PLANT > brute knockdown of older kid. But that one is still very good.
Had this exact scenario happen to me once. On the phone with my then SO, and my uncle shows up with his grown but still puppy golden retriever. He runs in, jumps and punches me in the stomach, which drops me to my knees, and does a full circle back around and wacks me in the side of the face, knocking me all the way down.
Cats will always be better than dogs. Cats dont stink (litter boxes aside, which are easy to keep clean and odour-free), whereas dogs have a permanent "doggy funk", cats dont drool everywhere, they arent needy and clingy, they dont jump up at you and slobber all over you. Cats are just awesome.
You never hear about a cat killing a baby. So dogs must be better. of course when that kid grew up he set a trap...
Wrong. Cats smell like shit. They shit inside and it smells like shit for a long long time. and when it doesn't smell like shit, it just smells like cat litter, which is awful. It's rare that I go to somebody's house who has cats and it doesn't smell like cat litter. The owners just don't notice it anymore. My upstairs smells like cat littler constantly, fucking cats. They walk around and meow stupid loudly at random shit like its gonna do something for them. Not to mention the things they piss on because they hate their owners and that piss smell doesn't go away easily.
Meanwhile my dog is in the other room sleeping on the couch. In a while he'll go outside and take a shit and piss on a bush, and nobody will smell it. The only time he drools is when he drinks some water, which is hilarious. Every now and then I vaccuum up some of his fur. That's the extent of his causing a mess in my house.
My cat has pissed on ONE thing he shouldnt have, and he had a bladder infection at the time. Other than that, they piss where they're supposed to, in the tray. If you scoop regularly, use things like baking soda in the tray and regularly use something like febreze in the air, your house doesnt stink.
I go shovel it into a whole or a bag or something every now and then. Takes 5 minutes. No fresh poop inside making poopsteams all over the rooms.
Better than inside. At least outside has a breeze that takes it away. The humans make more shit smell inside than the dog. Everybody poops.
You're fooling yourself if you think a dog (especially in WA) smells better than having a cat unless you wash the fucker every three days.
Anyway, the main point is that dogs do not smell worse than cats. To say that they do is absolutely false.
lol I do actually. Mainly because he's my running buddy and it's wet and dirty here these days, he also sleeps next to me. Just pour some mane & tail conditioner on him and rinse and he's soft and smells good. About once or twice a week he gets it.

Cocoa farmers taste chocolate for the very first time (video)
Posted on 31. Jul, 2014 by Dan Ruth.
The first time I visited Nicaragua — one of the major coffee-producing countries in Central America and a focus of Ground Up: The LWR Coffee and Cocoa Initiative — I was perplexed that the only coffee we had to drink was prepackaged instant coffee. Nowhere in sight were the beautifully bistre roasted beans of the […]

Behind the items that we consume every day are farmers struggling to survive and support their families.

In conventional trade, middlemen take advantage […]

Nintendo has announced pricing information for its first wave of full downloadable 3DS games.
Much like with full PS3 games on PSN and full Xbox 360 titles on Xbox Live, 3DS owners can expect to pay a premium for downloadable versions of titles like New Super Mario Bros. 2.
New Super Mario Bros. 2 will cost £39.99 to download from the Nintendo eShop, but will be available from GAME for £29.99.
The digital version of New Art Academy will set you back £29.99, a fiver more than it will in-store, and Freakyforms Deluxe will cost £24.99, versus £19.99 at retailers.
The only benefit we can see is that the downloadable versions are available from this Thursday, a day before you can pick them up in-store.
Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata has said the company plans to offer all first party 3DS and Wii U titles both digitally and at retail going forward, noting: "Since the packaged and the digital download formats both have their own merits, we would like to offer both of these options to our consumers."

"I cannot believe how adorable these came out. I opted to use a different style cursive - I used Lady Kate Bold and it was PERFECT! I have received so many compliments and phone calls about the card itself - before the RSVPS!"
"The invitation was perfect...the sentiment, the color combination, and the quality ...great. We customized with a solid back instead of stripes which gave it a little more of a traditional look. Everyone we sent them to commented on how lovely they were. Thanks so much for making this so easy."
"The cards are perfect. I added text on the bottom with small font and am pleased that it's very legible and looks great. Glad the color of the card is exactly how it looks online"
"Easy to personalize and add too if needed. Slightly pricey but worth it to know that it's going to be done right. Customer service is also very helpful if you need help or need to order extra :)"
"We did not want the cursive writing (mainly my fiance did not want..) but we still wanted somple elegant. This was the perfect combination. The team here was also very helpful in changing the colors to match our wedding."

Alstom Transport, as member of the "Società di Progetto Metro 5" consortium, signed a contract agreement with the Municipality of Milan, on the extension of Milan's metro system to the San Siro football stadium.According to the terms of the agreement, Alstom will supply the infrastructure, including the electric supply systems, electrical substations, traction systems, intrusion and fire detection systems, tracks and platform screen doors to ensure passenger safety for Milan's first automatic driverless metro line. The consortium is composed of Alstom, Astaldi, Ansaldo STS, Ansaldo Breda and the Milan city transport company (ATM). The overall contract for Milan's new metro line totals $1.1 billion.
In 2006, Alstom signed a contract for $65 million, providing infrastructure and project management respectively, for phase 1 of Milan's metro line 5 and the project is the most important project underway in the infrastructure sector in Italy.Milan's metro line 5 (4 miles, including 10 stops from Garibaldi to San Siro) will be completed before the opening of Expo 2015 (Universal Exposition), hosted by the city of Milan, and run fully underground, representing approximately eight miles in length and crossing the city from Bignami station to San Siro with 19 stations. Its transport capacity will amount to 26 million passengers per year.
The Bignami-Garibaldi line is slated for commercial service in 2013 and ATM, the public transport operator of the city of Milan, will manage the service of metro line 5.

Shot my first IDPA(clinic) Saturday and what a blast! It was 3 stages with a minimum of 50 rounds fired. We did a little bit of everything, strong hand, shoot from retention, shoot while moving forwards, moving backwards, poppers and swingers. My best string was drawing and shooting from retention, 2 rounds 2.79 seconds 0 points down. I placed 5th overall. I know 5th is not much when you are all beginners. lol . My biggest challenge was my stupid finger release Blackhawk holster, it might be ok in some cases but not if you need to get your gun out in a hurry.
I would have to say shooting IDPA is definitely going to help you understand what you may have to do in real life. I would have never thought that a timer and buzzer could add so much stress to shooting.

This grill is FANTASTIC! It exceeded my expectations. I love that you can use it open or closed and that it can be used as a grill or griddle. The best part is that the plates come off for easy cleaning. I had another grill that was tough to clean so this one is great.
I saw the ads on TV and knew we wanted to try it. We have several non-electric grill pans and although we are pleased with the cooking result, the cleanup is less than a stellar experience. We have a Circulon where things stick not only to the grooves but the circular pattern. We have a Le Creuset cast iron that needs a lot of scrubbing and you're not supposed to use soap! The same holds true for the Lodge grill that covers two burners on my cooktop.
The Griddler gets very hot and cooks very quickly and evenly. Cleanup is a snap! We haven't needed to put the grids in the dishwasher either since they are so easy to clean. I just wish there were more recipes and detailed instructions about how long to estimate cooking times and what temperatures to use.
In the uses I've had so far, this griddler has done nicely, although I'm still learning the nuances of the grills temperature settings. It seems to need a bit less on the settings than one would think. One can always 'undercook' and add a bit more time, but set the temperature too high and it will quickly overcook food items. Temperature across the grill or griddle seems uniform, no 'hot' or 'cool' spots but I do seem to note a variance between the top element heat and bottom, but this is dealt with when I turn food over. If you're cooking pannini though you wouldn't tend to flip an item, so uniform appearance might necessitate a flip. Cleanup is easy with the unit and the removable grill/griddle plates are really nice.
4.5 out of 5 stars, based on 309 ratings
98% of reviewers recommend this product
94% say this is a "good value"
I am very happy with my purchase. This product does what Cuisinart claims. Cooks food fast. Meat tastes like it was grilled on a barbeque. Grilled sandwiches cook evenly and fast. Non stick plates remove for easy clean up. I can't say enough about this.
I love this product. I got it as a Xmas present and so far have had great luck cooking sandwiches, steak, burgers, browning burger buns! Its great. I have used the grilling side more and its a little tricky to clean in between the grooves but you are provided a tool for helping with that. I have not yet run the plates through the dish washer, but maybe I'll do it next time. I did have a panini press which I passed on to a friend. This is much better, larger and great temperature control. The panini press I passed on did have waffle plates, and it would be fun if there were that option here. Maybe Cuisinart will come up with that as an accessory! That would make this perfect.
This griddle is perfect for many types of meals. My favorite thing about it is how easy it is to clean and the small amount of counter space needed.
The fact that you can take the plates off for cleaning and the off/on switch makes this a great improvement over more well-known indoor grills.
I've owned 3 other grill / griddles, and this one is superior.
Perfect heat on both sides and the grill plates are easy to deal with.
It makes pancakes like a champ, and my paninis are always
seared to perfection. Worth every penny. :-)
This grill is the perfect size for an uncluttered counter top. It heats quickly and evenly. Clean up is a breeze with the removable plates! I hand wash, which seems more efficient than waiting for a dishwasher load. I've used it a least one time every day. In fact, preparing a great snack using this utility is so easy, it's become an automatic, conditionioned reflect at our house.

I just wish there were more recipes and detailed instructions about how long to estimate cooking times and what temperatures to use.
I'm pretty basic in my grilling needs. Hamburgers, boneless pork chops.
Have tried the griddle once - was just fine. I've made ham and cheese sandwiches using the panini function - yum. Tried a reuben last night. I think I have to perfect my technique - sandwich was little soggy. The only complaint I have about the product is that it is difficult to clean between the grids when I grill hamburgers. I usually wash the griddle plates by hand. Haven't tried them in the dishwasher yet. The plastic tool is fine for getting large pieces of residue out of the way - not to get the grids absolutely clean, even after soaking in hot, soapy water. I really have to work to get between each grid to get the residue. I was surprised at how light the grill and griddle plates are compared to my last griddle. Overall, I like the product.
I have had several griddles of this nature and am pleased with this one on several counts. It heats quickly and really gets hot enough to do some serious cooking. It also maintains a lower temperature well. My biggest complaint is that when open in griddle mode, the "top" plate does not lock into place. It clicks into a stable location but if you put pressure on the ends, it pivots slightly and tilts.

A lot of us must feel the same way, too; why else would we get tiny tattoos or wear navy polish and black bras (instead of nice-girl nude ones)? Inevitably, however, there comes that MFR (moment of fashion reckoning) when we wonder, "Am I too old for this?" If you have recently experienced an MFR of your own, here's how to …

Billy Bob Thornton is known for many things: his roles in movies like Armageddon and Monster's Ball, his highly publicized marriage and subsequent divorce to actress Angelina Jolie, his recent portrayal as Lorne Malvo in the television series "Fargo," and his singing. But following a recent interview on "Oprah's Master Class," Thornton may be known for something entirely different. He wears girls' jeans. "I'll go to Old Navy and get girls jeans 'cause I'm kind of bony, and they fit me …

Oprah Winfrey wants to hear what Dani Shapiro has to say about writing. That's why "the Big O" has invited the 51-year-old novelist and memoir writer (left) to appear on her "Soul Sunday" show on October 20 [editor's note: The date of the show has changed from October 27 to October 20]. If you're an aspiring writer of any kind, you may want to tune in as well: Shapiro's points on the value of writing – even when you aren't getting published …

An article in the New York Times about Oprah Winfrey and the declining readership of O, The Oprah Magazine, her 12-year old publication, stopped me in my tracks. Here's the paragraph that leapt off the page and gave me my own "Aha!" (but not in a good way) moment: Ms. Winfrey wants that audience for the magazine, but she wants its readers to be younger. The median age for O readers is 49, according to data tracked by the audience …

Perry insists South Carolina primary is not his Alamo
Polls are showing that Rick Perry may be running low on ammunition in what could be his last stand in the GOP presidential primary contest.

Perry defends challenging Romney as "vulture capitalist"
GOP presidential contender Rick Perry says it's good for frontrunner Mitt Romney to face accusations of being a "vulture capitalist" heading into South Carolina's first-in-the-south presidential primary.

American Cowards
I'm sick of the right-wing fear-mongering American Cowards - Bill O'Reilly, Eric Bolling, Greg Gutfield, and Robert Beckel. They are all more Yellow than Red, White, and Blue. Close the borders! Stop the flights! Find the wolves! What a bunch of whiny little boys. Grow up. Act rationally. Be men. Stop blowing things out of proportion. Stop acting like you're tough guys. Stop sowing fear because you're afraid. I think of my father and my uncles and what harrowing terrors they went through in World War II. I learned from them about how real men handle real fear. Quietly brave, not bombastically spastic. We're losing a generation that defined what it is to be an American. We're gaining a generation that's got to define it once again. We're stuck with a generation of American Cowards. ISIS is winning thanks to you. Ebola will be harder to treat thanks to you. Our children will have a harder time handling the future effectively thanks to you. Get some balls.

I really need to get this off my chest. President Obama has taken a lot of heat for not having a strategy for ISIS - Islamic State in Syria and Iraq (although I prefer ISIL - Islamic State in Levant for its accuracy). It was the simpleton thinking like getting rid of Saddam Hussein that got us into this mess in the first place. From a cold, real-politik perspective that thug kept these lunatics at bay. Now we have to deal with an ideology bent on world domination. The piece in the New York Times on the use of media by ISIS shows just the surface of the real battle being waged here - a battle of ideologies that dwarfs even the Cold War. That was a conflict over economic systems; this is a conflict over the very definition of humanity. For all intents and purposes these aren't even Earthlings to me - they are Aliens challenging the very definition of being humans. And as that piece points out, they are wielding the most advance weaponry brought to the planet - virtual mind control (and if you think they're advanced on the social media side, imagine how advanced they must be on the clandestine side). We honestly have nothing right now to fight back against this. Frankly, the notion that fueled the thinking behind the Iraq invasion - "Freedom and Democracy" - doesn't have the same visceral appeal of 72 virgins and a single world under a god and some messenger. What I'm looking for is something, actually someone, who can embody something greater than some 7th century fantasy that's spreading a metastasizing cancer. The President is looking for this something; trying to cobble together something real to stand up to fantasy. Of course, maybe some on the right who are simpleton thinkers might just be right here for a change. Just nuke em. I'd personally prefer a 21st century messiah with no connection to the sons of Abraham.

Needle in a Caldera
I was just trying to do a little calculation on the challenge of finding #MH370. The most recent report has the search area "narrowed" to 13,000 square miles. With an average depth in the Indian Ocean of 12,000 feet, this comes to about 30,000 cubic miles of water or about 123,000 cubic kilometers. If you shrunk a 200 foot plane to the size of a 1 inch needle, with about 2400 inches in 200 feet you get a ratio of .0004167 or there about. Using that ratio applied to the total volume of water to be searched you get about 52 cubic kilometers. A search for something of that volume comes up with the Tambora Volcano
- site of the largest volcanic explosion in recorded history. Apparently, this led to the 1816 "Year without a Summer" (and apparently also the inspiration for The Scream by Edvard Munch). I only say all of this because if the plane was the size of a needle, you'd be searching in a haystack with a base the size of this caldera and total volume of the top that was blown off. Check my math but it feels right (thank you Wolfram).{ 0 comments }
CNN Software Coverage - Good Thing or Bad Thing
In keeping with Jon Stewart's parody of CNN reducing everything to #GoodThingBadThing, I'm going to review #CNN Software Coverage with #GoodThing, #BadThing to keep it simple for the journalists. Let's start with the fiasco of Laurie Segall's (@lauriesegallcnn) coverage of the healthcare.gov site's problems. She ends up citing every problem any large software system could have except the real one - a last minute feature request from the product owner. If there's a problem with software, it must be the fault of the developers. Couldn't possibly be the customer's fault, the system's fault, or god forbid the user's fault. Of course, this doesn't apply to anything built by "Silicon Valley", that modern-day version of the Catholic Church - an apparently infallible, disembodied entity, most recently represented by the guy who inflicted the software world with Wordpress. We'll call this #BadThing.
Contrast this with Chris Frates (@frates) coverage of the Common Application software for applying to post-secondary institutions. Similar set of problems cited for this system (can't login, applications lost, users frustrated) but Frates doesn't go on the witch hunt that Segall does. This is probably because it's not a government-run program, doesn't have an Obama prefix, and isn't about healthcare. We'll call this a #GoodThing for now.
Then we come to Catherine Rampell (@Crampell - nice handle) and her speculation that Apple has built-in planned obsolescence into their products. As @ChrisCuomo points out, thankfully as a lawyer, that she has no evidence whatsoever to support her claims, it's apparently OK for CNN to give her air time for this, because, she's, like, an economics reporter and she, like, works for the New York Times and that. Add in that Kate Boulduan (@KateBoulduan) didn't know that "planned obsolescence" was a defined term (she should check her job description) and you get an overall #BadThing on this coverage.
And now we come to Brianna Keilar (@brikeilarcnn) with exclusive access to a report of "eye-popping", "glaring", "red flags". The report on the healthcare.gov cites "no access to monitoring tools", "inadequate time for performance testing" and "occasional outage of hub services". Really? You could attach that report to practically every software project across the entire planet - BEFORE they even start. It's a TODO list. Don't think the President of the United States needs a TODO list. He should have been told that his product owners were making unreasonable last-minute feature requests. Giving this a #BadThing.
So, overall I'm calling #CNN Software Coverage a #BadThing up until this point. I'm not quite sure why I'm so passionate about this but I am. Actually, I am sure why. Software is being woven into the fabric of society and needs more sophisticated treatment. #CNN really needs somebody with some deep knowledge about technology to sort the wheat from the chafe. Being able to point out pretty buttons and channeling some mysterious "Silicon Valley" ghoul isn't cutting it.

CNN Software Coverage
Had some time to reflect on your comments, @lauriesegallcnn, about the 5 million lines of code would need to be rewritten for the Affordable Care system. I called you out on it on Twitter, and you said that you knew that the number of lines of code weren't relevant, that you put this into context on the air, and that you had no idea what I was talking about. Well, I reviewed the tape. I don't think saying that a programmer writes about 100 line of code a day is putting this into context. That's like saying your average musician writes about 10 lyrics a day. This shows an even deeper dis-connect with the subject. And, sorry, but dropping in "Silicon Valley", like you would "Catholic Church" isn't helping either.
I think you're heart is in the right place but you need some help. Seriously, #CNN, you need to make some investment. The real issues here are with the basic procurement process itself (god help any small software developer try to get a government contract), a congress that doesn't think it could possibly be to blame in all of this (the ones who setup the rules in the first place), and news outlets who's only competence in explaining complex systems is when somebody points to a hole in a big red swirly thing in the middle of a bigger blue thing and says "bad". We're encountering more complex problems that require more sophisticated solutions and more nuanced explanation.

Rationality Required
I've had it with this government shutdown over the Affordable Care Act (I refuse to call it Obamacare anymore). From what I can find, the arguments on the right have revolved around the notions about being "right", or about "morality", or "America". These are emotional drivel. They have no meaning whatsoever. I can just as easily say you're wrong, evil, and Nazi. None of these arguments have any validity. They don't get us anywhere. To me, this is coming down to being RATIONAL. It's about producing evidence, supporting hypotheses with logical arguments, and simply knowing what something like "statistically significant" means. If you are incapable of producing such, you have no standing to participate in serious discussion. Provide evidence, work within the system, and act like human beings. If you're worried about something, make your case. You want to change my mind, do that. Otherwise, go get your guns, come on over to my house, and put me out of the misery of having to deal with you, because I'm sick of it.

Far Right Intervention
Am wondering if it's just too late for this but I'd like to see a call for an intervention on the far right. Honestly, I'm worried that deep-down, the right has simply going insane. I don't quite know what to do but have really progressed from anguish to outrage to fear. Reason, rationally, and reality have long-since gone by the wayside. Obamacare has become worse than slavery; if you don't agree you're either Nazis, Commies, or Redcoats; you take a reasoned approach to healthcare, you'll take away our guns, our family, and our American way of life. It's sick and needs professional intervention. Of course, will have to wait till the first of the year but there is hope.

Batman did win in TDK.
His goal throughout the film was to support, protect, and help
Gotham City.
Supporting Harvey was a means to that end. Joker corrupting Harvey was not about turning Harvey, but about breaking Gotham's spirit. As Batman prevented that by taking blame for Harvey's crimes, He saves Gotham's soul and therefore did not lose in TDK. At worst, Batman suffered a pyrrhic victory.

Dent death was collateral, Bruce's intention was to save the kid not worry about whether Dent would fall or not. Frankly how people can interpret it any other way, even after 5 years astounds me.
Not only that, but in TDKR Gordon plainly states in his letter "Batman did'nt murder Harvey Dent, he saved my boy."

Re:Gamestop been doing it for a long time (343 comments)
Every xbox game I've bought has come with a seal from the factory (with MS logo and stuff) along the edge of the clamshell. Unfortunately most people probably (a) don't know about it, (b) don't care, or (c) take their word that it's still new and they are only protecting themselves from theft.
I like your idea of a more permanent indication of the seal being removed, but GS/EB would probably just put a big sticker over it saying 'new game, really, but don't forget to buy our new game insurance for only $4.99!'.
What? (313 comments)
It's not 'biplanar', it's stereoscopic. I suppose they could use something like what you describe to reconstruct a stereoscopic view of a 2d film, but in practice they are more sophisticated than that. I know you're trying to simplify things, but calling it biplanar is selling it way short.
Don't get me wrong, I hate just about everything about this 3D fad, I just think you are confused about the implementation.

My PC has a very powerful graphics processor. I'd rather they use that to, you know, render graphics, than waste my CPU doing it much less efficiently. They can also store images and stuff in its memory. As long as it works ok on lower end machines, how is this not a good thing?
Re:Ditch the points system entirely, please. (82 comments)
One benefit is that they only need to adjust the price of points in other currencies as they fluctuate, and not the price of every single item they sell.
At one point when the Canadian dollar was nearly equal in value to the American dollar, Sony adjusted all their Canadian prices on PSN to the American prices. That was only possible because they happened to have prices for all items in another currency of approximately the same value. Now that the Canadian dollar is weaker again, they will be making less from Canadian sales.
It's a choice between trusting the value of a new currency, or coming up with prices for all items, in all currencies, and adjusting them over time.

Only for windows, but it converts to mp4 files which will play on the 360. There are probably easier ways to do it with transcoding, but this one actually keeps the video stream intact bit-for-bit. You just need to make sure
Also if you have a newish ATI or nVidia GPU, it can probably do the decoding if you use mpc-hc or the standalone codecs from it.

He describes a world where the entire infrastructure has essentially been rebuilt in 40 years. I can't see how that would have seemed plausible even back then. That said, portions of it are impressively accurate.
