BBC Apologizes for 'Game of Thrones' No Nudity News Alert
LONDON – Users of the BBC News app on Wednesday received a long breaking news alert that mentioned a lack of nudity on the latest episode of HBO hit show Game of Thrones, among other things, leaving users confused.
Some users took to Twitter to post the message or screen shots of it before BBC News said it was sent accidentally as part of a testing process.
"NYPD Twitter campaign 'backfires' after hashtag hijacked," the BBC News alert said. "Push sucks! Pull blows! BREAKING NEWS No nudity in latest episode of Game of Thrones!!! MORE BREAKING NEWS IIIIIII like testing."
The bottom of the message added: "This is a breaking news story and the BBC News app will bring you updates as soon as they are available."
The same message was sent again soon after.
The BBC apologized via its BBC News feed on Twitter late Wednesday morning, saying: "We apologize for previous two test push notifications, which were sent in error to BBC News app subscribers."
Some British websites initially suggested a hacking attack. But the U.K. public broadcaster on another Twitter feed, AboutTheBBC, reacted to one post by saying: "Not hacked, but glad you're an avid follower of our app."
Some social media users had fun with the incident. "So, it wasn't hackers. But we still don't know if there will be nudity or not in latest Game of Thrones episode," tweeted one person. And another one posted: "In fairness Game of Thrones not containing nudity would definitely be cause for a BBC news app notification."

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Meet Malaysia's first female mixed martial artist
04 Feb 2011 11:54 GMT | Politics, Asia, Myanmar
Thein Sein, Myanmar's outgoing prime minister, has been chosen to become the military-run country's first civilian president in half a century in a cosmetic shift that does little to end the army's dominance in politics.
The new parliament named Thein Sein president on Friday after selecting him from a pool of three vice presidents chosen a day earlier.
Khin Shwe, an upper house member, said Thein Sein won 408 out of 659 votes.
The selection of a new government is the latest step in Myanmar's so-called transition to democracy, which critics call a sham designed to cement military rule.
The military's delegates in parliament and their civilian allies hold an 80 per cent majority in the new legislature.
Thein Sein, 65 years old, is a career soldier who joined the military junta in 1997 when it was reorganised. He replaced General Soe Win as premier in 2007 and has been the regime's international face at regional forums.
'Clean soldier'
Thein is a former general who heads the military-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party, which won a huge majority in November's general elections that much of the international community dismissed as rigged in favor of the government.
Thein Sein also has an image as a "clean" soldier, not engaged in corruption. Still, as prime minister since October 2007 and the fourth ranking military leader in the junta, Thein Sein did not have much decision making power.
Senior Gen. Than Shwe has wielded absolute power in the country since his rise to power in 1992. It is not clear what his role will be in the future, but he is expected to remain a dominant force no matter who becomes president.
Under the 2008 constitution that came into force on Monday with the opening of the union parliament, the president appoints the commander in chief, chief ministers of the regions and states, cabinet ministers and also head the national defence and security council.
The army has held power in Myanmar since 1962.
The party of Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, which won the last elections in 1990 but was blocked from taking power by the military, boycotted November's vote, calling it unfair.

We were beginning to wonder when the promised sim-equipped version of the Nexus 7 2013 would wind up in the Play Store, but it looks like today is the day. Hopping onto the Google Play Store, you'll now find the new Nexus 7 2013 32GB LTE version available for $350.
The mini-tab features 3G connectivity with the usual HSPA+ networks, as well as LTE on AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless. In a strange twist, the tab will also soon be arriving in T-Mobile stores this October. If you're still not sold, perhaps the free month of T-Mobile data (2GB) and free shipping will entice you. Anyone been waiting for this guy?
Unfortunately, for our friends overseas, it looks like the LTE-equipped Nexus 7 is US-only. But, if you have any friends or family in South Korea, starting today, they can now purchase the Nexus 7 (2013) 16GB or 32GB WiFi version.

There's a particular phenomenon popularized on the Internet wherein users who consider themselves early adopters look down on those who were late to the party. Now, thanks to idego.co, you can figure out exactly how much cooler you are than everyone else in the web world.
The site asks for authorization to Twitter, Instagram, Foursquare and Github. After authorization, it spits out where that account exists, in percentage points, when compared to all other accounts.
Beyond fueling our innate desire to know things before other folks know things, idego.co serves as a useful benchmark for how quickly someone adopts new applications as they roll off the virtual assembly line. If you're in an industry that heavily leans on social media or the technology behind it, being in the bottom 5% could be a major red flag.
The one big flaw here is that all the numbers are crunched under the hood. Just because the website tells you that you're within the first 3.68% of Twitter users doesn't necessarily make it fact. It also requires authorization, which is always a bit scary when you're deciding whether or not to use applications that solely exist for their novelty.
Theoretically, all it needs to do is acquire an account's unique identification to determine exactly where in the grand scheme of accounts it exists, but that doesn't mean that's all it will do. As with anything on the Internet, users must make a choice.

Vapor barrier/insulation on concrete slab under bathroom?
Our new home wasn't well maintained, but we knew that going in. One thing I noticed was a toilet that appeared to have been leaking around the base for some time. I assumed I'd be removing and replacing the subfloor. Today, I finally got into that project. The bathroom will be getting a new tub, tile floor, toilet, etc.
I pulled the old toilet today, and found what I expected -- rotten subfloor. I've pulled this out, but now have a question. The bathroom is built over a slab. The floor sits on 2x8 joists which are not directly on the concrete slab, there's about 1" below them. Someone put loose fill insulation in this cavity, it was sitting on top of the concrete. The bottom half inch or so of this loose fill is damp, has compressed, and has now been removed. At this point, the subfloor is off, the old damp insulation is gone, and I'm ready to continue.
Now, the question is, should I put a vapor barrier on top of the concrete? It seems like a good idea, as moisture was clearly coming up through the concrete and getting into the insulation. So I'm prepared to put down a barrier, if that makes sense. Second, should I attempt to put insulation back in? Or better to leave out? Ultimately there will be a 3/4" plywood subfloor, a layer of concrete backer board, and tile. There's no access to this area without tearing up the floor, no vents in there, and no climate control of any kind.
Thanks for your input!

The only option I can see for venting would be to cut holes in the concrete block foundation...
House is mainly on a basement, some crawl, and some slab. This room is behind the garage and likely shares the same slab.
You would know better than I, but it is uncommon to set a wall on concrete block.
It is more common to frame the floor system, setting the sill, rim and floor joists on top of the foundation, which would increase the opportunities for cross ventilation.
You're right -- I should have said, cut holes in the concrete block wall. That would have to be done in the lower 12" or so of the wall, as that is the part which comprises the "crawlspace"..
Seal the floor, then spray foam the cavity. Or combine well-sealed layers of XPS or EPS. Do not vent.
Here is a link that might be useful: Building Science Corp.: Crawlspace Insulation
Be sure you understand the options.
There are 2 kinds of crawlspaces allowed by the IRC:
Vented and Unvented (aka "sealed"). The terms "unvented" and "sealed" are misleading because this type of crawlspace is not completely sealed or unventilated.
The IRC code requires that both of these types of crawlspaces be "ventilated" so that moisture does not collect and encourage the growth of fungus (whether from the ground, condensation on the slab, etc.) by one of the following methods:
1) "Vented" Crawlspace - install vent openings in the exterior wall of the crawlspace
2) "Unvented" Crawlspace - inside the house supply to or exhaust from the crawlspace a small amount of air with a return air path to or from the house and insulate the exterior walls of the crawlspace.
Both crawlspaces must have a vapor retarder at ground level and an access opening.
For more information see IRC section R408.1, 2, & 3.

Historical Traveler Reviews Yellowstone West Gate Hotel West Yellowstone
This hotel was clean and had friendly staff. I was in a room with 5 people, i thought the room had alot of space. Wireless internet worked well once we called for the pass word. I would stay there again.
Hard to beat
My family and I have stayed at the West Yellowstone Comfort Inn twice, in summer of 2003 and summer of 2005. The rooms and staff are always top notch and I would recommend it to anyone.
Great place to stay in West Yellowstone
We had two non-smoking rooms which were large and very clean. The staff was courteous and friendly. The pool and hot tub were also nice. A variety of foods were offered for breakfast, enough for everyone in both families to have something the liked. The cookies and hot soups offered in the lobby in the afternoons were also a welcome treat after spending the day outside playining in the snow.
We would definintely stay here again!
Comfort Inn "Friendly staff & Great Accomodations"
We booked a group & needed 8 rooms. The staff was very accomodating and let us use the breakfast room for getting together at night. The pool and hot tub were great, but the afternoon soup and cookies were perfect. Great selection for continental breakfast & clean rooms a must. We were very pleased. Visit here for Snowmobiling country !!!!!
Family suite was a bit small but I'm being picky
Like most comfort inns-not much to look at from the outside but inside it was clean, friendly with a very good indoor pool. Easy to find as it is on the edge of the town. Our family suite was a room with 2 Queen beds with an adjoining room with a queen bed with no window. It was therefore a bit dark during the day. We stayed for 4 nights so on the days we did stay in and read/relax it was a bit claustrophobic. But !!!! It was good-standard comfort inn breakfast. Overall a very good hotel. West Yellowstone is great - not far from the best sites. Go to the Timberline Cafe you won't be sorry. Once we found it we couldn't keep away. DG
Highly Recommended
Though not as near to the centre of town as some of the other motels, it was clean, tidy, and excellent value for money - the breakfast being a bonus. A great place for a stopover when visiting Yellowstone NP.
Great Hotel - very friendly staff
We stayed at this Comfort Inn for 2 nights on July 30 and 31, 2004. When I check into a hotel, one of the first things I do is make sure my room is cleaned to my standards. This one failed since the blanket had something stiff all over it and the sheets had hair on them. However, I called the front desk and explained the situation and asked for a clean blanket and sheets. Within 20 minutes someone was at our door with the requested items. She was very apologetic that things were not right and quickly changed the sheets and blanket. The rest of the room was very clean. The next night we had to change rooms because the one we were in was not available for 2 nights. Our room on the 31st was very clean. The staff at this Comfort Inn is very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again.
Just Right
We stayed here for 2 nights recently (May 2004) between other more "exclusive" lodges (both of which were awesome). While this Comfort Inn did not have the dramatic view of the others, it was much more inexpensive as well. And it was just right. Big and clean room, friendly staff, great location. The complimentary continental breakfast is a nice plus. Highly recommended!
Awesome, among the best anywhere
We stayed here for three nights in March, 2004. The Comfort Inn is awesome. Our room, with two queens and a foldout sofa, was huge, and one of the most comfortable rooms I've stayed in at any price. It had a small fridge and a microwave. The hotel is very clean and well-managed.
I have absolutely no complaints, and will stay here again. The continental breakfast was better than average, with lots of choices.
They had coffee in the lobby and even hot soup and/or cookies in the afternoons and evenings. We visited for cross country skiing and racing. It was easy to just walk across the street, strap on the skis, and ski the snowmobile trail a short distance to the Rendesvoux trail system. They set up sawhorses and an extension cord outside the front door for ski waxing. The pool was a bit larger than your average hotel pool, and the hot tub was nice and hot with good jets.
GREAT-Very Clean
My family checked into the Comfort Inn in West Yellowstone, Montana on August 20th for 3 nights.We were greeted by a friendly front desk staff willing and wanting to answer all of our questions about the area. When we got to our room it was spotless, probably the cleanest we have ever been in. Our room was very comfortable and clean. Our kids loved the large heated indoor pool and spa. Every morning they served a complimentary continental breakfast which offered many choices. Wonderful to get us started on our long days in Yellowstone. The Comfort Inn made our trip memorable. We will definately stay there again on our next trip to Yellowstone.

i sit about 6ft from a 23" lcd in my home office. i have a 42" lcd that is in the family room that i sit about 12ft from. i think the apparent screen size is similar. but i also think the 23" unit seems sharper. is it because i am closer? both are 1080p so maybe it is a wash. i had a 53" hd rptv that i sat 7' from as a test. whoa. gave me a headache.
Joe - the 23" seems sharper because it is sharper. You're taking the same number of lines and pixels of information but stretching them out on to a larger 42" display.
It's similar to looking at a picture in the newspaper at arms length, and then holding it up real close where you see all the dots. Look at the 42" up-close and you'll see the dots, or in this case, the pixels. Look at the 23" up-close, which will have much finer dots, or pixels, and of course appear sharper.
Don't know the type (DLP or CRT), or resolution of the rear projection television you had, but "subjective picture quality" can become very complicated when trying to compare various displays.

Regarding palm wood...
Despite our mild Winter thus far (I mean...it's just about tee shirt weather down at the beach today), these guys were pretty much shot by late Nov. And here is one now. I've posted pics of this yard before, and mentioned in a thread that I spoke to the owner quite by accident this past Summer and told him about Windmills. Young guy who just seemed content to plant cocos every year and let them die off. Hey, it's obviously well within his means. But what I'm getting at is...just how sound would the wood from the trunk of this tree be for carpentry purposes?
I take the driftwood I find and use it out at my tiki bar and backyard, and was hoping to rescue this trunk or its neighbor before they are removed. Not gonna just go down there some night with a chainsaw. I'd try to contact the owner first. My plan would be to use it as the base for a small table. Believe me, there is a nice sized trunk under all those toasted fronds...
They never stood a chance, but at least the winter was nice on some less tropical plants (or at least its been nice so far)!
Coconut palm wood is used a lot in the tropics for building. Im not sure how it compares to other wood, but I would guess that it's pretty strong.
I've used dead palm as well as live to grow orhids and other epiphytes on. Coconut will last over 10 years for sure even exposed to the element with no treatment,
If you put some kind of sealer on it would probably last forever?? gary
They fared better this year than last, but stiil didn't survive the wallop of, I'd say, between 1 and 2 weeks of the bitter cold we've had to deal with around here so far this mild Winter. These guys face north and are exposed to both onshore and west winds. Same exacvt setup the last two seasons. Looking forward to what he does this year...

Seattle Approves $15 Per Hour Minimum Wage 1040
from the only-sort-of-starving-now dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
At least the machines will get your order right.
If it works at $15 why wouldn't it work at $100?
Of course, it doesn't work at $15, or any other price. Sure, it helps those who manage to keep their jobs, but everyone else... well... http://reason.com/blog/2014/05... [reason.com]
Thank you, gullible tool, for helping us propagate the message that earning a living wage is bad for workers.
Your friends,
The One Percent
Santa Fe has had a living wage since 2003, presently at $10.66. San Francisco implemented a living wage shortly thereafter, presently at $10.74. I'm sure there are others at this point.
The fact that you think that $10.74 is a living wage in San Francisco is laughable at best.
You liberal hippies and your math are what is wrong with America these days.
I have learned to trust that lowering costs for the rich will benefit me and my trailer-dwelling family far more than increasing our wages.
Make it right before you make it faster.

It appears as if the Scientology haters over at Anonymous will be trading in the V for Vendetta masks for costumes more befitting of Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow. According to a press release we just received, Anonymous' latest phase in its war on the Church, slated for June 14, entails having all members dress up like pirates to protest the Church's totally insane (even for them) Sea Organization outside of regional Scientology offices around the country.

Cloud Nothings at The Main, Austin, 3/14/2012
Cloud Nothings spent the bulk of 2012 on the road in support of their great Attack on Memory album and we caught them in NYC a bunch of times throughout the year. And not that we'd ever turn down seeing them again, but when they announced that they're working on a new album, it made their set at the BrooklynVegan SXSW day party yesterday (3/14) even more anticipated. And they did preview some material from the new record at the show, and it's sounding really good. The new stuff is hard-hitting but not without the melodies that make Cloud Nothings so catchy. You can watch a video of them playing one of their new songs at their Mohawk show on Tuesday (3/12) below.
Of course, they also played a bunch off Attack on Memory and when they did those songs, they had maybe the wildest crowd at the BV day parties so far. Like they usually do, they changed up those songs a bit live, especially during the jammy parts, and worked in some instrumental interludes between songs too. They also changed the setlist around since the last few times I've seen them (I think it was the first time they didn't play "Separation" before "Wasted Days," and no "Stay Useless"!). The front half of the crowd (if not also the back) knew every word and they were grabbing each other to scream along, starting mini mosh pits, and rushing the stage. Over a year after the release of Attack on Memory, it's great to see random people still coming together and connecting with each other and those songs.
Big thanks to our sponsors Onkyo, mophie, Jameson, Zico, Food For Lovers, American Apparel, Korg, Vox, Blackstar, ReDigi, Signazon, Korg, Pink Avocado, Creative Creation, and Mirrored Media, who we couldn't do the day party without. More pictures of Cloud Nothings from that party and the video of the new song below...

BrooklynVegan free SXSW 2013 Thursday day party lineup (Cloud Nothings, Death, Parenthetical Girls, Widowspeak, METZ, Beach Fossils, Milk Music, Spits, Single Mothers & more)

We announced the Saturday lineup, and then the Friday lineup, and now HERE IS THURSDAY...

Japandroids at Webster Hall in 2012 (more by Dan Bracaglia)
Japandroids had a great year in 2012 and it doesn't look like they have any plans to stop celebrating rock in 2013. They've already been announced for some spring/summer festivals like NYC's Governors Ball, Quincy, WA's Sasquatch!, Dover, DE's Firefly Music Festival, Manchester, TN's Bonnaroo, Indio, CA's Coachella, and Detroit's Metallica-headlined Orion Music + More; and now they've announced a full international tour surrounding those fests. The dates include a European run with The Gaslight Anthem and a west coast run with Cloud Nothings around the time of Coachella. Most likely because of Governors Ball, there are no other NYC dates to report at the moment.
The band were also recently nominated for the Juno Alternative Album of the Year Award (going up against Hannah Georgas, Metric, Said The Whale, and Stars), and they just stopped by Conan last night (2/25) to perform "The Nights of Wine and Roses." You can watch the video of that performance below.

James Murphy, El-P, Jarvis Cocker
The second of two S.S. Coachella cruises set sail off the coast of Jamaica last week (12/19) and returned on Sunday (12/23). (The first set sail from the Bahamas on 12/16.)
Day 1, pictured in this post, was headlined by reunited britpop greats Pulp and also included sets by The Rapture, Cloud Nothings, James Murphy (DJ), El-P, Simian Mobile Disco, and others. We didn't catch Grimes on day 1 but pictures of her set at day 2 are on the way. Killer Mike also played day 1 but unfortunately we missed him. The venues on the cruise were all pretty intimate, which was especially great for Pulp fans who got to see them in a 1,400 capacity theater with great lighting. The other venues had darker lighting but the sound and intimacy made up for any other shortcomings.
Before S.S. Coachella, Pulp played a hometown show in Sheffield where they gave their fans Christmas cards which sent them to this link, which was activated with a download to a new song on Christmas Eve at midnight, according to Pulp fansite Bar Italia. The song was actually a re-recording of an old Pulp demo, "After You," and it was done with fellow S.S. Coachella sailor James Murphy.
Writer Nathan Stout was aboard the cruise as well and he told us a bit about Pulp's set:
A neon sign reading 'PULP' in huge letters swings back and forth on stage as Jarvis Cocker rips off another piece of clothing. He shakes his hips then falls on his back, puts his forearm on his brow, squirms, and thrusts the air...all to the pleasure of hundreds of screaming fans. It is the first night of the S.S. Coachella. We are front and center, proudly wearing our neon hats. Only a few feet separate us from Jarvis and Pulp. We are drunk (but not belligerent or reckless) and living in the moment; every ridiculous moment. We dance. We yell. We exchange glances of excitement and approval. Welcome to music fan heaven. Welcome aboard the S.S. Coachella!He also wrote about the ship itself...
The Celebrity Silhouette is largest and newest of the Celebrity Cruise Lines' fleet. The vessel weighs a whopping 122,400 tons and holds 2886 people. It was obviously built with luxury in mind. There are two large swimming pools on the top deck, four hot tubs, a lawn made of real grass, chairs, hammocks, basketball courts, a theater, restaurants, clubs, food everywhere, drinks everywhere, and as many servants as cruise patrons. Aboard this ship we lived like rock stars for four glorious days.You can stream the Pulp song and check out more pics from day 1 of S.S. Coachella below...

Today, we finally get the much anticipated list of Pitchfork's Top 20 Albums of 2012. They revealed Nos. 30-50 yesterday and spent the rest of this week posting Honorable Mentions and tracks. None of the albums that made the top 20 are surprising to see there (which doesn't mean they aren't deserving), but the surprises come from the albums that missed the list all together. Passion Pit got ROBBED! Twin Shadow too! And Wild Nothing! If you're looking for Converge or Baroness, you'll have to redirect yourself to Pitchfork's Metal list (though Pallbearer was in the main top 50). And we could've guessed that Nos. 1 and 2 would be Frank Ocean and Kendrick Lamar... but who took the No. 1 spot? Head below to find out and you can check out individual writer's votes too...

Cloud Nothings at Terminal 5 in October (more by Tracy Allison)
One band we've been seeing on a ton of year-end lists this year is Cloud Nothings for their great album, Attack on Memory, which literally attacked everyone's memory of what the band was prior to this record (and is my personal favorite of the year). Today, we learn the exciting news from a Dylan Baldi interview with MTV Hive (via Consequence of Sound) that Cloud Nothings have not only "written most of" a followup album due out in 2013, but it's going to be "noisier and less straightforward." \m/
"The album is a little less melodic. It's noisier and less straightforward. I think people will be able to handle it." Baldi's looking back further on this LP, taking inspiration from early punk. "There's one track that sounds a lot like early Wire, that I really like. There's not really words yet, I write them super last minute when I'm in the studio."They'll start recording in April and hope to have it out in the fall."I want to do one thing each year or else I'll feel like I'm lazy," Baldi says.
Maybe it will turn out like that great middle section on "Wasted Days"? You can listen to that song below.

Pitchfork just posted their much anticipated list of the top 100 tracks of 2012. The #1 slot went to... Grimes! Whether you thought the whole of her album Visions was good or not, it was hard to deny the charms of "Oblivion." (Having that great video didn't hurt either.) Do you think it deserved to top the list? If not then what song should've?
You can check out P4K's entire hot 100 of 2012 below.

Frank Ocean at Angel Orensanz Center, 9/24/2012 (more by Fred Pessaro // BBG)
One of the saddest losses of 2012 for me was the NYC print edition of The Onion which I always looked forward to picking up on Wednesdays and browsing while on the subway or getting some food on the neighborhood. (I still have my copy of the "CHINA STRONG" issue, easily one of the funniest they've ever done.) I lament of it for the AV Club half as well, as I've long found it to be amongst the best pop culture criticism/journalism out there. While NYC can no longer get physical copies, you can still read it online where the AV Club has really flourished.
It's Year-End season there too and have just published their Top 25 LPs of 2012 list, which was tallied by a complicated system that led to a lot of ties, including three albums claiming the #18 spot. There was no doubt who was getting the top slot, though, as Frank Ocean's Channel Orange got the most votes by a wide margin. There's no stopping that album on year end polls. Elsewhere on the list, you'll find more than a few records that cater to the late-'30s indie rock fan crowd (The Walkmen, Bob Mould, Field Music) and even Rush's Clockwork of Angels. You can look at individual writers' ballots as well. Check out the whole list below.

Alt-J at Glasslands, 8/7/2012 (more by Toby Tenenbaum)
Rami Haykal and Jake Rosenthal started Popgun Booking back in 2008 and in a very short amount of time became prominent tastemakers, with their homebase of Glasslands becoming one of the first stops for any new hyped band (Django Django, Savages, Palma Violets to names some recent UK ones). They also have (and in some cases still do) book shows at Cameo, Irving Plaza, Santos, Knitting Factory and more. Jake and Rami gave us a collaborative list of Popgun's favorite LPs of 2012. Check it out below.

Eternal Summers and Bleeding Rainbow list their favorite LPs of 2012, playing Brooklyn Night Bazaar this week
by Bill Pearis
Eternal Summers at BVCMJ 2012 (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Roanoke, VA's Eternal Summers and Philly's Bleeding Rainbow are old pals, having released a split 7" back in both bands' early days and have toured together more than once. So it's probably no surprise that they put each other's new records on their respective 2012 Top 10 LP lists. As noted in A Place to Bury Strangers' list, the Bleeding Rainbow album, Yeah Right, doesn't actually come out till 2013 (though originally scheduled for October '12) but they've been selling it at their merch table for a month or so. You can check out a recently released single, "Waking Dream," from it below.
You can pick up a copy of Yeah Right, probably, when Bleeding Rainbow and Eternal Summers play Brooklyn Night Bazaar on Saturday (12/15) with Black Dice. The show is free and open to the public. The setup at Night Bazaar is different than last year, with vendors in both of the giant rooms, one with live music, crafts and food, the other with crafts, ping pong tables and more.
Eternal Summers' Correct Behavior is one of my favorite albums of the year and you should definitely check it out if you haven't yet. (It's on Spotify.) Eternal Summers will also open for Nada Surf at Bowery Ballroom on Friday (12/14) and tickets are still available for that show.
Eternal Summers and Bleeding Rainbow Top 10 lists are below along with the Bleeding Rainbow song stream.

Grimes @ Music Hall of Williamsburg (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Josh Moore, talent buyer at Bowery Presents, is in charge of booking shows at Music Hall of Williamsburg, but you'll also find gigs he booked at places like Brooklyn Bowl, Webster Hall and Terminal 5. You can also blame him for both Jam Cruise and Holy Ship. Like his his associate Johnny Beach and ex-Bell House/Union Hall/Rock Shop booker Jack "Skippy" McFadden before him, Josh gave us a list of his favorite albums of 2012. Check it out, along with some related videos, below...

by Klaus Kinski and Kurt Braunohler
This installment of Klaus Kinski Bugging Funny People He Adores For Their Top 10 Favorite Things of 2012 brings us face to face with the great comedic tornado that is Kurt Braunohler. Kurt entered a cherished spot in my heart chambers many many years ago when I first saw him performing with Kristen Schall somewhere. Since then I've seen him do stand-up and sketch type stuff alone or with Kristen no less than 70 million times and he has never, ever, never ever not brought his A-Game to the stage (a favorite bit, btw). His resume is extensive. Kurt has been seen (or heard) on TV on Bob's Burgers (FOX), Chelsea Lately, Delocated (Adult Swim), John Oliver's NY Stand Up Show, The Heart She Holler (Adult Swim), Comedy Central Presents, Jon Benjamin Has a Van (Comedy Central), Assy McGee (Adult Swim), Human Giant (MTV) and the anti-game show he hosts, BUNK! on IFC. He can also be heard on the radio on This American Life.
As far as stages, Kurt has performed at the HBO US Comedy Arts Festival, Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal and Chicago, New York Comedy Festival (named a "Comic to Watch"), SXSW, Bonaroo, All Tomorrow's Parties, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (IF.Comedy Award nominee), Melbourne Comedy Festival (Barry Award Winner), the HBO Vegas Comedy Festival, the Chicago Improv Festival ("Improv Ensemble of the Year" Award Winner) and he once performed at Radio City Music Hall, but only because his comedy partner (Schall) is pretty famous. And who can forget the awesome web series Penelope: Princess of Pets? Or the fact that he hosted Hot Tub with Kristen Schaal for 7 years? Do you like wunderkinds? Then you will LOVE KURT!
Kurt's list of favorite albums from this year, brought to life with my htmling and youtube embeddings, as well as a list of upcoming Kurt tour dates (no NYC), are yours to enjoy. BELOW.

More of the big 2012 year-end lists have been rolling in, with NPR and SPIN recently revealing theirs, and now Rolling Stone have unleashed theirs. Similarly to Uncut, the expected albums from older artists are there, including Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, Dr. John, and the number one slot going to Bruuuuuuuuuuuce. It's got huge albums like Mumford and Sons, Taylor Swift, and fun., as well as the token high ranking indie album (Japandroids at #9), the token washed up band who was once classic (Green Day), things you knew you'd see on Rolling Stone's list like Jack White and Alabama Shakes, and... Grimes!
You can read the whole list below...
by Andrew Sacher
SPIN have revealed their list of the top 50 albums of 2012. It continues SPIN's trend of giving love to crossover punk and metal (which they've been pretty consistent with since naming Fucked Up's David Comes to Life their top album of 2011) with the inclusion of Baroness, Torche, Pallbearer, Cloud Nothings, and Japandroids, but rather surprisingly excludes the SPIN Essential'd Ceremony - Zoo and The Men - Open Your Heart, in favor of popular blowouts by Taylor Swift, fun., and Nicki Minaj. The list also shares its #1 and #2 with the two highest Pitchfork-rated albums of the year. And no Grimes.
The list begins with the Kanye-cribbed disclaimer, "Most critics' taste levels ain't at our waist level. Ain't nobody fucking with our clique." Check out SPIN's Top 50 LPs of 2012 list below.

Silversun Pickups / Cloud Nothings @ T5 10/15/2012
Last week, Silversun Pickups brought their tour with Cloud Nothings through NYC for shows at Terminal 5 on October 14 and 15. Pictures, videos, and setlists from the first night are HERE, and we've got pics from the second night in this post. The setlist was pretty similar to the first night, but they did switch it up a few times. Cloud Nothings briefly mixed it up too, replacing "Our Plans" from the night earlier with "No Sentiment."
More pics (including opener Atlas Genius) and the setlists from SSPU and Cloud Nothings are below.

"if you play a show and it's not mind-numbingly loud what is the point" - Cloud Nothings
Silversun Pickups/Cloud Nothings
Silversun Pickups took their tour with Cloud Nothings to NYC this week for shows at Terminal 5 on Sunday night (10/14) and Monday night (10/15). Silversun Pickups played mostly off of their new album, Neck of the Woods, though of course included their popular singles from the last decade like "Lazy Eye." Cloud Nothings weren't exactly the most fitting opener for the band, and we can't say they pleased all SSPU fans but they brought it nonetheless. As Matthew Levine for CMJ put it, they "[transformed] several audience members in the crowd into dancing rag dolls with limbs flailing all over." Tourmates Atlas Genius opened both shows as well.
Pictures, videos, and the setlist from night 1 are below. Pics of night 2 are coming soon.

What else?
Cloud Nothings at Summerstage in July (more by Chris La Putt)
As mentioned, Silversun Pickups are going on tour with Cloud Nothings this fall and hitting NYC on October 14 at Terminal 5. That show is sold out, but they've just added a second show happening one day later (10/15) at the same venue. Tickets for the newly added show go on sale Friday (9/14) at noon with AmEx and WRXP presales starting Wednesday (9/12) at noon. Atlas Genius is also on both shows. An updated list of dates is below.
Speaking of Cloud Nothings, we just posted earlier today about their side project Chomp, who are releasing their debut LP, Buddah Jabba Momma, on September 18 via Exit Stencil and playing a record release show in NYC at Cameo on September 21 with Swearin' (tickets).
All dates are listed below...

Cloud Nothings side project Chomp releasing an LP, touring, playing record release show in Brooklyn (dates & MP3s)
by Andrew Sacher
DOWNLOAD: Chomp - "Throw Out Your Wish List" (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: Chomp - "Done Waiting" (MP3)
Cloud Nothings members Jayson Gerycz (drums) and Joe Boyer (guitar) already have the side project Total Babes, who released the album Swimming Through Sunlight last year, and now they have yet another side project called Chomp, and they've taken their Total Babes bandmate Chris Brown along for the ride. Unlike Total Babes, Chomp is primarily fronted by Joe Boyer, and if you've picked up on his backup vocals in Cloud Nothings, Chomp actually sounds pretty familiar.
They're set to release their debut LP, Buddah Jabba Momma, on September 18 via Exit Stencil and they'll celebrate the album with a release party a few days later in Brooklyn on September 21 at Cameo Gallery with Swearin'. Tickets for that show are on sale now. The show falls in the middle of a short tour the band will be on this month, much of which is supporting Cloud Nothings. All dates are listed below.
You can download two album tracks, "Throw Out Your Wish List" and "Done Waiting," at the top of this post, or stream them below. Also below is the album's cover art, tracklist, and a list of all dates.

West Coast janglers Craft Spells are heading East next month to play Cincinatti's Midpoint Music Festival (September 27 - 29) which also features the likes of Grizzly Bear, The Walkmen, Dirty Projectors, Sleigh Bells and many more. Tickets for the fest are still available and the whole line-up is at the bottom of this post.
Before the festival, Craft Spells will be in NYC for a show at Glasslands on September 24 with new new romantics Ice Choir. Tickets for that show are on sale now.
You can stream Craft Spells' new-ish EP, Gallery, plus check out the whole Midpoint Music Fest line-up, below.

Baroness at Terminal 5 in May (more by Joe McCabe)
Earlier this week, we posted an update from Baroness showing that things were looking upwards for the band. Unfortunately though, with two members having broken vertebrae and frontman John Baizely having a broken arm and leg, it doesn't come as much of a surprise that Baroness have in fact cancelled some of their upcoming North American tour dates, including their NYC show at House of Vans and LA's FYF Fest. They will not be replaced on the House of Vans lineup, which happens on August 29 and now just includes Turbonegro, Doomriders, and Nightbirds. This is a bummer but it makes sense that the band takes the time they need to recover, and we wish them a speedy and successful recovery!
Meanwhile, FYF Fest, which Wild Flag also dropped off of, recently expanded its lineup. It now features The Faint (who just announced they'll be reissuing Danse Macabre and touring the album), Glass Candy, King Tuff, and newcomers The Orwells. Tickets for FYF Fest are still available. The updated lineup and flier are below.

Silversun Pickups at Firefly Music Fest in July (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
Silversun Pickups released their third album, Neck of the Woods, earlier this year and you can stream three of its tracks below. The band will be supporting the new album with a tour which begins this September. The first leg of that tour has already been announced, and the band just revealed some October dates as well including New Orleans festival Voodoo Music Experience and a NYC show which happens on October 14 at Terminal 5 with Cloud Nothings and Atlas Genius. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (8/24) at noon.
Hopefully Cloud Nothings will add a small DIY show while they're here like they did the last time they came to NYC for a big show. The dates with Silversun PIckups come after Cloud Nothings wraps up their own North American tour in September. They recently pushed back the release of their Live at Grog Shop 12" which was supposed to come out this past July, to September 25. They also recently recorded a performance of "Fall In" for For No One TV, which you can watch below.
All lists of dates, video, and streams are below.

Concert cruises are all the rage lately, and this is in fact real.
Indio, CA music festival Coachella continues for two weekends in April, 2013. But just because they've decided to keep the fest in Indio, doesn't mean they can't take it on a couple of cruises as well. As seen in the picture above, S.S. Coachella will set set sail off of the Bahamas from December 16-19 and off of Jamaica from December 19-23. The lineup (thus far at least) includes Pulp, Hot Chip, Yeasayer, James Murphy (DJ set), Grimes, Cloud Nothings, Killer Mike, El-P, Sleigh Bells, Father John Misty, and more.
Holy Ship sails in January too.

Grimes / Godspeed You! Black Emperor
The 2012 Pitchfork Music Festival continued on Saturday (7/14), and like day 1, Chicago's Union Park was plagued by some rain, but everything moved along as planned and the weather cleared up by mid-afternoon. Day 2 began with sets by The Psychic Paramount and The Atlas Moth (both of who we unfortunately missed) and then continued with Cloud Nothings, Flying Lotus, Schoolboy Q, Chromatics, Hot Chip, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Grimes and much more.
If you weren't at the festival, did you stream it live?
More pics from day 2 are below (all by Fred Pessaro/BBG except Grimes by Chase Turner) and day 1 pics are HERE.

Fortune 500 Cyber Attacks Timeline
For the Infosec professionals, this troubled 2014 will be remembered for the trail of gigantic breaches unleashed nearly exactly one year ago, when the real outcome of the infamous Target breach became to emerge. The real extent of the breach was yet to be known, like also the fact that it would not have been an isolated case, but just the beginning of a nightmare.
However this is not the only example of a Fortune 500 company deeply hit, and thanks to a very smart hint by @bufferzone, I took the opportunity to collect in this timeline all the main cyber incidents involving Fortune 500 and Fortune 500 Global companies since 2011 to nowadays.
The adopted selection criteria take into considerations only incidents involving a direct impact on end users, so defacements have not been taken into consideration.
Fortune 500 Global companies are characterized by a blank value in the Rank column, whereas Fortune 500 companies are characterized by a red value. Also, when possible I inserted both values if the targeted company belongs to both charts and, in those cases in which a subsidiary company has been targeted, I have obviously inserted the rank of the parent company.
Give Me Twitter And Pastebin And I Will Hack The World!
Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony. And this rule worths also for the Infosec Matrix…
Yesterday, while a five-hour outage, due to an alleged DDoS cyber attack initially claimed by the Anonymous, left GoDaddy unable to serve millions of websites (panicking millions of Internet Users), a digital publishing company named BlueToad came forward to take responsibility for the leak of a million iOS unique device identifiers (UDIDs). For sure you will remember that the same infamous collective claimed to have stolen the UDIDs from an FBI laptop few days ago.
Probably the FBI had really nothing to deal with the hack, since yesterday BlueToad admitted (and apologized) to have been breached and that the UDIDs were stolen just in that circumstance.
And as if that was not enough, hour after hour even the alleged cyber attack to GoDaddy has taken a paradoxical turn: after the initial claims, the Anonymous have denied the responsibility for the action (at first marked as the latest form of protest against GoDaddy's support to SOPA), and have also mocked @AnonymousOwn3r, the alleged author of the attack, who self-proclaimed (sic) "security leader of Anonymous because I'm behind many things such like irc, ops, attacks, and many".
Now the latest coup de théâtre: there's no IRC bot behind GoDaddy's outage (as claimed by the alleged author), but a much less romantic series of (unspecified) internal network events that corrupted data tables, apparently "simple" (for those famliar with networking) routing issues.
And they are two… In the same day, two alleged cyber attack initially claimed by the Anonymous, and then proven to be false. And even if it is not so common to discover two in the same day, fake cyber attacks are becoming quite frequent (think for instance to the alleged hack to Philips, old data leaked in February according to the Dutch Giant, and to Sony). Of course the point are not the Anonymous, the point is that claiming hacks and leaks (made by others, or worst totally false) is becoming too simple… Nowadays with Twitter and Pastebin you can (claim to) hack whatever you want (as an example I often find on pastebin dumps repeated several times and claimed by different authors).
Maybe it is time to take with caution and skepticism the news of massive leaks.
16 – 31 August 2012 Cyber Attacks Timeline
Here the first part with the timeline from 1 to 15 August 2012.
Here we are with the second part of the August 2012 Cyber Attacks Timeline. A second part of the month that has been characterized by hacktivism, most of all because of the so-called OperationFreeAssange, which has targeted many high-profile websites.
Among the targets of the month, Philips has been particularly "unlucky". The Dutch giant has been the victim of three Cyber Attacks, even if there are several doubts about the authenticity of the hacks.
But maybe the biggest operation of the month is the #ProjectHellFire, carried on by the collective @TeamGhostShell, that has unleashed something as 1 million of accounts belonging to different sectors (banks, government agencies, consulting firms, law enforcement and the CIA). And the group promises new action for this Fall and Winter.
The Middle East confirms to be very hot, with a new Cyber Attack, probably another occurrence of Shamoon, targeting RasGas, yet another Oil Company.
Just one note: of course it is impossible to track all the targets of the #OpFreeAssange. You can find a complete list at cyberwarnews.info.
If you want to have an idea of how fragile our data are inside the cyberspace, have a look at the timelines of the main Cyber Attacks in 2011 and 2012 and the related statistics (regularly updated), and follow @paulsparrows on Twitter for the latest updates.
Also, feel free to submit remarkable incidents that in your opinion deserve to be included in the timelines (and charts).
February 2012 Cyber Attacks Timeline (Part I)
February 2012 brings a new domain for my blog (it's just a hackmaggedon) and confirms the trend of January with a constant and unprecedented increase in number and complexity of the events. Driven by the echo of the ACTA movement, the Anonymous have performed a massive wave of attacks, resuming the old habits of targeting Law Enforcement agencies. From this point of view, this month has registered several remarkable events among which the hacking of a conf call between the FBI and Scotland Yard and the takedown of the Homeland Security and the CIA Web sites.
The Hacktivism front has been very hot as well, with attacks in Europe and Syria (with the presidential e-mail hacked) and even against United Nations (once again) and NASDAQ Stock Exchange.
Scroll down the list and enjoy to discover the (too) many illustrious victims including Intel, Microsoft, Foxconn and Philips. After the jump you find all the references and do not forget to follow @paulsparrows for the latest updates. Also have a look to the Middle East Cyberwar Timeline, and the master indexes for 2011 and 2012 Cyber Attacks.
Addendum: of course it is impossible to keep count of the huge amount of sites attacked or defaced as an aftermath of the Anti ACTA movements. In any case I suggest you a couple of links that mat be really helpful:
- List of all vulnerable websites attacked by anonymous Part II (updated daily) (via cylaw.info)
- List of Websites Hacked, Defaced & Taken Down By Anonymous (via valuewalk.com)

How to tell the difference between females and young?
Does anyone know how to tell the difference between adult females and the juviniles?
The other day a hummer came and was very relaxed on the feeder, but definately not one of the adult males. The male came, perched on top of the feeder for a moment then he started shrieking. The other bird then perched and the male did his courtship ritual. So obviously this was an adult female. This got me to think and wonder if this was the same female that I would watch in April that disappered. If so she must have already raised young and is ready to work on another nest. If thats the case I started to wonder where are the young. Today a hummer came that once again was not an adult male, but it was very nervous and skiddish at the feeder. Now I am wondering could this have been a juvinile?
Sorry for being such long winded. I just wanted to explain my question in depth.
You asked a question that I have also been wanting to ask.
I think I saw a female about 2 weeks ago. The female
wanted to stay and perch for a drink, now I`m getting visitors
that come for quick drinks,also they are vocal they have to sing before they take a drink. So I`m confused if it`s a
female or a small male .I keep trying to get a close look.
I am still cofused about the type of hummer I think they are
anna . Every day if have time I try to do more research.
Here's a website with pictures that may help. Young male ruby-throats are white-throated, with white in their tails--pretty much like adult females. They can be distinguished from adult females by the spotting or streaking on the throat, which increases as the summer goes on. Adult females tend to have purer white throats, but just to confuse things, will sometimes also have darker markings--but this is less typical. So, if you've got a summer bird with white in the tail, and a white throat with noticeable streaking, and especially if it seems small in size, it's probably a young male. Sometimes the males will even get a few red feathers on the throat, but won't fully molt into their red throats until they reach their wintering grounds. When they return in spring, they'll look like adult males.
From what I can see, young females are very difficult to tell from adult females. Whereas the green feathers on an adult female tend to be pure green all the way to the tip, young birds will often show buffy edges, especially on the top of the head and face.
There are other differences, too, but they'd be hard to make out on a flying bird. Take a look at this website, and see if you can make sense of it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Distinguishing female and young ruby-throats--both male and female
I agree. Even with the info, it's hard to make out the subtle differences. I'm still trying to figure out how many individual birds are visiting by videotaping them and looking at unique markings. Man, it's tough, but I'm pretty sure I have at least two different adult males. I think one of my females might be an immature--or is that pollen on her head?
Too bad we can't all get dave_in_va to come to our homes and take a bunch of his ultra clear photos. If we could study the photos carefully, perhaps we could tell if we have adults or immatures! How about it, Dave?
I just wanted to say thank you again for the info.That is a wonderful idea videotaping the hummers.I`m still having a hard time indentifying who is who.I wish I could look at my hummer feeder all day.I wish some of you people were not so far away. Then I could just say come over here Kristin because I need to know If this is a male or female. The face to face advice would be nice.Thank you again.
Something that might help ID the age of your hummers is the length of their beak.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I notice that the young hummers have slightly shorter beaks than the parents when they first visit my feeder. The baby beaks haven't finished growing.
By the way, here is a juvenile male developing his ruby feathers. (I know, this angle doesn't demonstrate the short beak.)
Here is a different boy a little bit older. Notice that he has a deformed beak. It made him easy to ID.
