Meet the Lawyer Suing Anyone Who Uses SSL 347
from the mine-all-mine 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).
Who's up for forming a lynch mob?
Nevermind that the patent was actually filed in 1989, long before the World Wide Web was even invented.
Now, don't get me wrong, this is patent trolling at it's absolute worst, but what exactly is this quote supposed to mean? We (rightly) complain all the freakin time how people shouldn't be granted patents just by adding "on the internet" or "on a computer", we can't have it both ways. If there is a valid patent to provide secure communications through USPS and the key steps of that patent are being performed as part of secure communications online, why shouldn't that be considered to be violating the patent?
Nevermind that the patent was actually filed in 1989, long before the World Wide Web was even invented.
The problem here is not that the patent was filed before SSL was invented (about 1995) -- that could be fine, if SSL was using a patented technology that pre-dated its own invention.
The problem here is that the attorneys are accusing the practice of 'sending network records over a wire and encrypting them with a stream cipher', where in this case the cipher is (I believe RC4). However RC4 was invented in the 1980s and should pre-date this patent. I'm certain that somebody used it to encrypt network traffic in an almost identical manner, so there should be prior art.
Moreover, stream ciphers in general have been around for much longer than that. Someone somewhere has published/deployed this idea before. It should not be a live patent. Note that the case has never been tested by a court.
According to TFA, the patent apparently infringed upon has expired, however this mob can still sue people who used it in the past for the next six years.
So, if you start a new company now that uses SSL you should be in the clear.
'I don't understand why just because [SSL is] prevalent, it should be free.'
This statement is one of those really douchebaggy things that douchebags douche out.
All of that being said, SSL needs to be replaced with something better anyway.
Who's up for forming a lynch mob?
Depends. Who are you going to lynch? The scumbag lawyer? The patent official(s) who granted this patent? The politicians who have been dragging their feet on patent reform? I mean, are we out to change the system, or just to vent on a shrewd individual who is exploiting it?
Note to self: Invest in companies that make rope.
"If you're a small garage inventor, you're not big enough to be paid for your inventions".
Nice ethics you have. No wonder there are so many "too big to fail" companies now and so many small ones are destroyed just to make sure these big failures stay up.
"One Architecture, One OS" also translates as "One Egg, One Basket".

I was born in Pennsylvania and studied English at Smith College. After I graduated, I started teaching second grade and it was during this time, whilst quietly going mad, that I began to write seriously. I've read and loved romances since the age of ten and naturally I just thought 'why not?'
Reforming the Rake was the title of my first novel. Shortly after I completed it, I moved to London to pursue a masters degree in Art History. I still live there now, with my boyfriend who – like any proper romantic hero – grew up in a castle. Our flat is built on a much smaller scale, and we share it with a growing collection of books, broken antique furniture and Indian spices.
Having completed my masters, I'm now devoting my time to writing about much more interesting things, like sex. In addition to writing I enjoy riding, dogs, shopping, decorative arts and cake.

Leinster to investigate Mujati claim
ESPNscrum Staff
August 27, 2011
Northampton's Brian Mujati has claimed that he was racially abused by Leinster players © Getty Images
Leinster Rugby have confirmed that they will hold an internal enquiry into Brian Mujati's claim that he was racially abused during Northampton Saints' friendly victory over the province on Friday night.
Writing on his Twitter account on Saturday morning, Mujati alleged that Leinster duo Steven Sykes and Heinke van der Merwe had repeatedly called him "a baboon" during scrums.
The South African prop said of his compatriots: "I was shocked by how blatant they were being and to think I actually thought I knew Heinke from back in the Lions days.
"The guy then tries to shake my hand after the game. Naturally I kindly told him to **** off. I wish them all the best with their careers."
Leinster issued the following statement later in the day: "Following allegations made by a Northampton Saints player this morning via his personal Twitter account, Leinster Rugby are holding a full internal investigation.
"The managements of both teams are in close communication and hopefully the matter will be resolved as soon as possible. No further comment will be made at this time until that resolution has been reached."

Nipple stimulation, Did it work for you?
Started by 1miss2littlemen , Feb 09 2013 07:00 PM
16 replies to this topic
Posted 09 February 2013 - 07:00 PM
So following a attempted sweep yesterday and an irritated cervix I am wondering if nipple stimulation is any good and if it worked for you?
Can you give me any advice ect?? Thanks
Posted 09 February 2013 - 07:02 PM
No no no. I tweaked until my nipples were literally bruised and still didn't avoid an induction (well, Cervidil, then my body took over). In turn, that made establishing breastfeeding with a perpetually hungry baby agonising.
On the whole, I don't recommend it.
Posted 09 February 2013 - 07:10 PM
My midwife suggested it and I just saw that you can do it with a pump??
Posted 09 February 2013 - 07:12 PM
No luck here! I did it by hand, with a breast pump and even expressed colostrum just to see what would happen. I was having regular BH at the time, and they got slightly more intense but that's it.
I was induced both times (42 weeks and 40 + 10), with just the gel. Induction was not bad at all. Good luck!
Posted 09 February 2013 - 07:43 PM
No one else?? Lol surely there are more then two people who have tried it??
Posted 09 February 2013 - 10:22 PM
Nipple stimulation, sex, long walks, spicy food, nothing worked..
Posted 10 February 2013 - 02:34 AM
With my last I had a stretch n sweep at my appt then went n booked in for an induction the following monday so six days later. I went into labour late thursday night so maybe give it a day or two and see what happens.
Posted 10 February 2013 - 02:52 AM
Often an SnS can take 2 to 4 days to really kick things off. As said before, SnS followed by sex (a.s.a.p.racticle) and a good hot curry - spicy enough to get your bowels moving.
Did they mention the state of your cervix? If it is long, thick and completely uneffaced, it can take a few shots. Doesn't always work though. I do support the idea that after all the usual tricks to no avail, admission the night before induction and prostagladins paste via speculum - at least it may soften the cx up enough to help things along IYKWIM.
Hope the experience all goes well for you and you go off naturally.
All the best.
Posted 10 February 2013 - 04:13 AM
Didn't work for me either OP. I tried every trick in the book! Hope your little one makes an appearance soon.
Posted 10 February 2013 - 05:55 AM
Worked for me. I pumped 10 minutes a side each hour. After 3 hours ( 30 minutes each side total) I gave up think it was ridiculous. 3 hours later my water broke and labour started soon after.
Prior to that i had tried, sex, accupuncter, reflexology, walking, hot food.
Posted 10 February 2013 - 01:35 PM
I have been trying it. Now 39 plus 3. Last night had contractions for 3 hours or so and then it all fizzled out - very annoying as i was up all night? Nothing today. I think I've decided to give up and wait for my induction next week. I'm going to enjoy my last few days with only having 2 kids
Posted 10 February 2013 - 01:37 PM
not at all!
Posted 13 February 2013 - 10:20 PM
Yes! It worked for me.I had my waters broken and then the midwives suggested the electric breast pump for about 20mins every hour. After 2 hours my contractions were 3 minutes apart.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 10:28 PM
I tend to think it is like all other natural induction methods and will only work if you are actually ripe and ready to go anyway.
At 38 + weeks it may be a little too early?
It never worked for me...just hurt my nipples so they were tender for breast feeding.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 10:37 PM
I was breastfeeding DD when I was pregnant with DS and we had our usual morning feed and the contractions certainly ramped up after that and became regular however I had been in serious prelabour the previous 24 hours - loss of plug, show and irregular contractions had started before our feed so I was probably going into labour sometime that morning anyway.
Edited by Roobear, 13 February 2013 - 10:38 PM.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 11:31 PM
I was breastfeeding my DD 4-5 times a day in the hope that it would work, and it didnt. I had 4 S&S and was 3cm dilated for weeks before I finally went into labour

I agree with STBG.
Though the only time nipple stimulation did anything for me, was when I breastfed DD2. Feeding her created contractions, but I never stimulated my nipples to induce labour (mainly cause I had her there to, do it via BF anyway), but then I didn't really get the chance as DD3 was born on due date.

A Really gd game but i think the best part about this game is for the multiplayer cuz the campain just isnt tht intresting anymore after 3-4 playthroughs .And is an amazinly Gory peice of art but after a while tht can get boring and can lose its thrill.If i was too rate it would be a 8.5 maybe 9.0 for the multiplayer It improves graphic and story and just the technical bugs from the first game and improved A.I but like most games can get boring fast if u dont have a xbox live account and past horde.
the story is a gd improvement from the first game but at times can feel abit dragged.
thts my summery of the game.

Do you listen to PodCasts? If so how many per week?
This is the question I'm asking in my inaugural 'Poll of the Week' question – see side bar to vote.
You see I'm fascinated by new media like PodCasting and Vlogging – however I have a few reservations about them also which lead me to wonder how many people actually listen to them.
I regularly listen to a handful of podcasts and have done so now for a few months – but I've noticed a change in the past few weeks in my listening habits. I'm listening to less of them and am gravitating to the shorter ones. The main reason is that I just don't have time to dedicate to some of the longer ones that are out there any more.

Leftwich's health key question for scouts
By Len Pasquarelli
In the personnel departments of all 32 teams last week, the fax machines spit out a letter from renowned orthopedic surgeon James Andrews, apprising the franchises that Marshall quarterback Byron Leftwich has been now cleared to participate in any on-field football drills.With apologies to Dr. Andrews, a skilled orthopedist in whose hands most teams would want any player with a torn knee ligament or damaged rotator cuff, the personnel directors want to see Leftwich's viability for themselves. That's how things are, of course, when a club is preparing to open its coffers and invest an eight-figure signing bonus in a quarterback. So on Monday, representatives from virtually every franchise will convene at Manatee High School in Sarasota, Fla., to scrutinize an audition which figures to shape the composition of the first 10 picks in the 2003 draft. And after rehabilitating for several months, and testing a left leg that has been fractured each of the past two seasons, Leftwich is prepared to play the role of a germ for all the figurative microscopes to which he'll be subjected. "If you think the teams are anxious to see me," Leftwich said, "I've got them all beat in terms of how eager I am to show them that I'm all healthy." His impressive statistics aside -- Leftwich has passed for nearly 12,000 yards and 89 touchdowns in three seasons as the Marshall starter -- the quarterback still has much to demonstrate to the hundreds of pairs of eyes that will be on hand for his first offseason workout. Few doubt his arm strength or accuracy or grasp of the passing game. "I mean, hell, it's hard to find 6-foot-5, 238-pounders with arms that are like rockets," said Tampa Bay coach Jon Gruden. "It's hard to find them, man." There is some irony, though, attached to the fact that a player who will earn millions with his arm will ultimately be adjudged by his feet. Even before the latest injury to his left leg, a fractured tibia sustained last November, there was some skepticism about two key elements of Leftwich's game: his ability to escape the pass rush and the fact that, for the majority of his career at Marshall, he operated from the shotgun formation. The broken leg, and the fact some scouts contend they discerned a slight limp during the February combine sessions, merely created another layer of doubt. And now, on Monday, the engaging Leftwich, arguably the only quarterback among the top five prospects in the draft who has posted big numbers every season he started, gets one chance to expunge any misgivings. League scouts contend, as usual, that Leftwich will be apprised by his entire body of work and that watching videotape of him is the purest measure of his worthiness. Truth be told, though, his professional draft status will in part be affected by what he does Monday on a high school field. Said one AFC personnel director: "He's a big talent but, because he doesn't have great movement skills, he's a big target as well. Even before the injury, there were questions about his mobility. And people want to see him get up behind the center, not in a shotgun, and take a normal drop. Those are things you have to be sure about. I think everyone knows he's a talent, probably a top 10 pick, but you want him to go out and get rid of the warts you know?" In preparation for the workout, Leftwich has been working for months at the International Performance Institute in Bradenton, a facility essentially owned by IMG, the conglomerate sports and marketing agency that represents him. He has dropped some weight, down about 13 pounds, after checking in at an eye-opening 249 pounds at the combine. Leftwich has been triple-checked by Andrews and done more running that anyone will let on. He is, anyone who chats with him for even a few minutes will admit, open and engaging and bright. Baltimore Ravens coach Brian Billick, still trying to discern whether Leftwich or Kyle Boller of California is the better player, acknowledged there is "an aura" about the Marshall star. That is one of many reasons the Cincinnati Bengals, who own the first pick in the draft, will dispatch a small army to Monday's workout. The Bengals are even supplying a pair of veteran wide receivers, Ron Dugans and Peter Warrick, to serve as targets in the audition. The Bengals will bring Leftwich, one of four players they are considering with the top selection, to Cincinnati early in the week for more interviews. But there is as time for talking, Leftwich realizes, and a time for doing. And the time for doing, he allowed, is at hand. "This is something that I've been waiting for, and preparing for, and I'll be ready," he said.

Roush Fenway Racing
2015 Fantasy Racing Outlook
Bayne finally makes the full-time jump to NASCAR's top division in the upcoming season. He will take over Carl Edwards' former team and the number changes from No. 99 to No. 6. While he will be the lead Rookie of the Year candidate in 2015, he's far from rookie-level experience. Bayne has 58 Sprint Cup Series starts over the last five seasons. His most noteworthy accomplishment was winning the 2011 Daytona 500, but little else since then has stood out. Bayne has only two Top-10 finishes in the last three seasons of part-time racing, and we're not so sure that's a commentary on Wood Brothers Racing or Bayne himself. One thing is for certain, he'll finally be behind the wheel of a Roush Ford in the upcoming season and expectations will be much higher.

Keim: Cards didn't match intensityPosted by on November 24, 2014 – 8:23 am
GM Steve Keim said he as a tendency to be a pessimist, and in some ways, his job is inherently so as the man in charge of trying to upgrade the team — even when they are 9-2. Sometimes, Keim said during his weekly appearance on "Doug and Wolf" on Arizona Sports 98.7, he said he can think "the sky is falling."
The sky isn't falling after a lone loss following six straight wins, of course, but now it's about curtailing that losing streak. To make sure it's not a streak. Ron Wolfley made a cogent point following the interview too, noting that a GM and a coach probably see the video through a different prism given their jobs. But Keim and Bruce Arians could certainly agree on one main point after Sunday's Seattle loss: "In a hostile environment, you have to match their level of intensity in all three phases," Keim said. "We certainly didn't do that in two." Offense and special teams didn't do nearly enough.
— Keim said he thought the offensive line needs to be more physical. Other that acknowledging a comment that right tackle Bobby Massie didn't have his best game, Keim wasn't specific on the offensive line but instead talking about them as a group. The entire offense has to play "in better unison" in the run game. The protection could have been better too.
— It was hard to evaluate QB Drew Stanton because the run game gave him no help, Keim said, but it wasn't Stanton's best game, noting Stanton's inaccuracy at times.
— There was a miscommunication between cornerback Patrick Peterson and safety Rashad Johnson on the early 48-yard pass to Ricardo Lockette, Keim said.
— Keim said he thought new defensive end Josh Mauro stood out (so did I). The rookie out of Stanford has long been on the Cardinals' radar. Keim said the Cardinals tried to sign Mauro as an undrafted rookie back in May, but he decided to go to the Steelers. When the Steelers cut him at the end of the preseason, the Cards again tried to sign Mauro to their practice squad, but Mauro chose to stay with Pittsburgh's practice squad. Finally, the Cards decided to sign Mauro off the Steelers' PS to the active roster.
— Here's why the sky isn't really falling for Keim: "The thing that gives me confidence is men in that locker room and that coaching staff."

Keim: It's about being proactive and aggressivePosted by on November 17, 2014 – 8:09 am
General Manager Steve Keim didn't have a whole lot of newsy things to say during his weekly appearance on the "Doug and Wolf" show on Arizona Sports 98.7, but that's probably a good thing. He did talk a little bit about giving the contract extension to defensive coordinator Todd Bowles — who just happened to have his unit play excellent in the first game since signing.
Keim said Bowles had obviously earned it. But bigger picture, Keim said the mindset he and the new football staff had when being hired was that with every decision "we wanted to be proactive and we wanted to be aggressive, to change the culture." That means locking up quality assistants. Keim reiterated that it won't (and can't) stop Bowles from taking a head coaching job after the season. But, Keim added, in talking with Bowles on the subject, "I know it will take a special opportunity for him to leave us."
Other quick hits from Keim:
— Asked to pick one player who stood out against the Lions, Keim didn't hesitate in naming cornerback Patrick Peterson. Peterson's play has no doubt jumped over the past three games. Now we get Richard Sherman week!
— Keim raved about the physical nature of safety Deone Bucannon's play. I know there was one early running play, when the Cards were in nickel and Bucannon just shot the gap to make a tackle for loss. An excellent effort.
— With two more sacks, linebacker Alex Okafor has "brought a pass rush we're desperately seeking," Keim said. Keim added Okafor has "probably missed four or five" more sacks the last few games on technique errors that he should clean up.
— The pass protection was excellent, Keim said, and he praised the interior of the offensive line for their play against a stellar defensive front. That was a big deal after the microscope was on the interior for the last week.
— Keim noted Larry Fitzgerald was able to come back and play after his knee was "dinged up" and said overall injury-wise, "on the surface it seemed like we came out OK."

Cards pop up in Pro Bowl votes – but not CampbellPosted by on November 14, 2014 – 10:30 am
Four Cardinals have appeared among the top 10 at their positions in the first release of Pro Bowl voting this season. Andre Ellington is ninth among running backs (ahead of LeSean McCoy at No. 10), Patrick Peterson is sixth among cornerbacks, Justin Bethel is seventh for special teamers, and rookie Chandler Catanzaro is fifth among kickers.
No Fitz, although he's just now starting to round into form, and no Antonio Cromartie, who is playing well. And no Calais Campbell.
I know Campbell missed two games and doesn't have eye-popping numbers. But he was a star against the Rams last week, and at this point in his career, it would be a shame if he didn't get more attention as a Pro Bowl candidate. Not that Campbell really is thinking about it.
"This time of year I don't pay too much attention to it," Campbell said. "I just want to do what it takes to win the game, and typically that means (I) play well. Pro Bowl comes with playing well. … I hope I get to avoid playing in the Pro Bowl because we are playing in the Super Bowl. That's my ultimate goal. But you do want recognition when you are playing well."
Of course, then Campbell downplays how he has done, noting his missed games and the knee that isn't going to be quite right all season, even as he plays at a high level.
"I just can't wait to be healthy so I can try to take over a game," Campbell said. "We need a big play, and I want to be able to dig deep and come up with the big play."

Rams — and Palmer knee — aftermathPosted by on November 9, 2014 – 10:53 pm
I remember, when Calais Campbell got hurt in Denver – at the same time Matt Shaughnessy got hurt – and Campbell said something along the lines that he'd eventually be back, Shaughnessy would eventually be back, Carson Palmer (who still wasn't back) would eventually be back, and it would all be part of this amazing story of the 2014 Cardinals when they made their playoff run.
The Cards can stop adding hurdles they need to overcome.
Carson Palmer will have an MRI Monday on his left knee. We'll see what happens, but while you hope for the best, you prepare for the worst, and the worst would be losing Palmer for the season. When your team is 8-1 and talking – legitimately – about a possible playoff run, losing a starting quarterback is vicious.
The positive is that Drew Stanton has played well when he's had to play. He did it again Sunday. But the last time, it was as a placeholder until Palmer came back. What happens if there is no coming back for Palmer?
Lost in it all was the fact Palmer just signed his contract extension Friday, which obviously is seen in a much different light with an injury. That said, all those wondering if the Cardinals re-signed Palmer too quickly? No. Not in my opinion, not unless you are now predicting serious injuries.
The Cardinals made the right move. They were just hit with bad, bad luck.
— Arians had this to say about Palmer's new contract: "He's the leader of our franchise right now and it will stay that way."
— On a short-term note, it's too bad Palmer got hurt because it overshadowed the job the defense did against the Rams. I keep going back to the thought the Rams had 40 yards rushing on their first-quarter touchdown drive – and just 70 rushing yards total for the game. The defense simply clamped down, and since the Rams had a rookie QB, St. Louis had no chance.
— Yes, Patrick Peterson has figured it out. That pick-6 was unreal – watch carefully how he tipped it to himself, an amazingly athletic play. "For the first time in a long time I felt 100 percent," Peterson said. "I just got tired of hearing all the criticism, people not knowing the situation."
— Calais Campbell was a monster Sunday. As well as Peterson played, Campbell was the best guy on defense.
— Campbell had two sacks of the Cardinals' six in the game. The Cards had just eight sacks in the first eight games.
— The Rams have not had a very good run defense. So it's a concern the Cardinals could not run against the Rams. At all. The Cardinals had only 28 yards on the ground, and Andre Ellington got a mere 23 yards on 18 carries. That won't work for many wins going forward, especially if the Cards have to turn to Stanton.
— Larry Fitzgerald was the backbone of the receiving corps, Yes, Smokey Brown made a beautiful TD catch, but it was Fitz making multiple crucial catches through the first part of the game, and he's on a solid path for 1,000 yards now.
— Brown probably shouldn't have been able to catch that TD. A fantastic individual effort. That kid catches key touchdowns, whether it was the game-winner against the Chargers, 49ers, Eagles and now Rams.
— Michael Floyd got off to a good start this season. But man, he has become MIA. He made a nice catch Sunday for a first down and took a hellacious hit. After that, though, he wasn't involved.
— Ed Stinson is dinged up, with a groin issue and a toe issue, but he dropped an interception with three minutes left that was right in his hands.
— As I wrap this up, I'm watching Tom Jackson and Cris Carter on ESPN talk about the Cardinals. They are talking about the team under the assumption Palmer is lost and Stanton will be the starter from here on. And both said they can still see this team with the ability to make a playoff run.
It says a lot about this team and the impression it has left nine games into the season.

Friday before the Cowboys – in Dallas this timePosted by on October 31, 2014 – 4:03 pm
The Cardinals used to go to Dallas every year when they shared a division address. But it's been almost a decade since the Cardinals visited the Cowboys – all the way back to 2005, when only two current Cardinals were on the team: Larry Fitzgerald and the sidelined Darnell Dockett.
"That was a long time ago," Fitzgerald said.
Indeed. Those were the days of Marcel Shipp and Josh McCown and Leonard Davis, the Arizona version. Those were the Dallas days of Keyshawn Johnson and Drew Bledsoe and Marion Barber. (The Cards, by the way, were drilled, 34-13, that day.)
Much has changed, not the least of which the venue, gaudy AT&T Stadium with its gigantic videoboard and 100,000-plus seats. "You can watch it from the sidelines," Fitz said. "It'll be fun to watch our defense flying around out there."
That figures to be the key, doesn't it? No, not the videoboard but the Cards' defense. Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo is questionable after skipping practice all week and you'd have to think that makes it unlikely he'd play. But whether it's a less-than-mobile Romo or a been-sitting-around-and-not-as-good Brandon Weeden, the Cardinals should be able to generate some opportunities. It'll start by how they handle DeMarco Murray, of course. If Murray dominates, Dez Bryant might be able to be the QB and the Cowboys would be OK. But if the Cards can have some kind of Murray control and force it back into the QB's hands, then the Cards will be in the game they wanted to dictate.
— Fitzgerald, on following up his stellar seven-reception, 160-yard performance against the Eagles: "A repeat performance all around wouldn't be a bad thing on the road against the Cowboys," Fitz said. "I know that much."
I have a feeling the Cardinals know it too. It feels like Fitzgerald could have another nice outing.
— Fitz needs only 95 yards to surpass Cowboys Hall of Famer Michael Irvin in career receiving yards. It'd be kind of sweet to do it in Dallas.
— The Cowboys' defense isn't great. It has been good enough. It definitely took a hit with the season-ending biceps injury to linebacker Justin Durant, though. Durant was the Cowboys' leading tackler.
— The last three times the Cardinals have played the Cowboys, the Cardinals have won on the final play of the game. In 2008, it was Sean Morey's blocked punt recovered by Monty Beisel in the end zone in OT. In 2010, it was Jay Feely's 48-yard field goal as the clock ran out. In 2011, it was a 52-yard screen pass to the Hyphen – LaRod Stephens-Howling – from quarterback Kevin Kolb for a touchdown.
— For those asking – for a road game, even! – the Cardinals are wearing red Sunday. The Cowboys almost always wear white at home.
— I'd expect Marion Grice to get at least a carry or two Sunday now that Stepfan Taylor is sidelined. Bruce Arians said Grice was ready, although he said Friday he was happy with Grice "until he dropped that handoff today."
— Safety Deone Bucannon was not fined for the helmet-to-helmet hit on Eagles receiver Jeremy Maclin, the one that caused the Patrick Peterson concussion. Cornerback Jerraud Powers was fined, $16,537 for his horse collar tackle in the same game. Eagles defensive lineman Trent Cole was dinged $22,050 for hitting Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer in the helmet.
— Arians said Peterson will cover Dez Bryant some of the time Sunday, but Peterson will not exclusively be on the Pro Bowl wide receiver.
— Punter Drew Butler has played at "JerryWorld" before, having punted for the Steelers in a 2012 overtime loss to the Cowboys. Did he hit the videoboard with any punts?
"Of course you try in pregame," Butler said. "It's a little ego boost there. I hit it a few times."
Butler said hitting it in-game isn't an issue because it's inside the hashmarks and kicks are almost always angled outside the hashmarks. A bigger issue, he said, is because it gets dark higher up, sometimes the gunners have a hard time picking up the ball as it drops from the sky.
— Arians had his own description on playing in the Cowboys' Dallas palace.
"It's different," Arians said. "It's all those fans when you come in, like you're walking out of a nightclub. It's got an unbelievable gladiator feeling to it because you're walking through the fans and they're throwing (expletive) at you."
On to Dallas.

Patrick Peterson cleared to practicePosted by on October 29, 2014 – 1:28 pm
Patrick Peterson acknowledged he briefly was knocked out Sunday when he collided with Jeremy Maclin and Deone Bucannon, ending his game. But the cornerback has cleared the concussion protocol — he did it Tuesday — and was back at practice Wednesday as the Cardinals prep for Dallas. He even was going to golf Tuesday after he passed, which his doctor OK'd. His wife, however, did not and Peterson instead took it easy.
"I feel normal," Peterson said. "It was a scare, but you have to move forward."
Peterson has upgraded to a new helmet.
— Fellow defensive back Tony Jefferson has not yet been cleared through the concussion protocol, however. Coach Bruce Arians is hopeful he will be cleared by Wednesday. Running back Stepfan Taylor, in the meantime, won't practice because of his calf injury and won't play this weekend but said he already feels much better and called his status "week to week."
— On a conference call, Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo said he wanted to play against the Cardinals but will be reevaluated daily with his back bruise suffered Monday night. If it were just a question of pain tolerance, Romo said, he'd play. But also in the equation is his ability to be an effective quarterback, and that will factor in as well.

Keim: Peterson protocol, and a Coop chancePosted by on October 27, 2014 – 8:13 am
There isn't much new to report on cornerback Patrick Peterson this morning, but General Manager Steve Keim said during his weekly appearance on the "Doug and Wolf" show on Arizona Sports 98.7 that Peterson was "in good spirits" as he left the stadium last night and will go through the concussion protocol before he can return to the field. "It's not different than Drew Stanton's (situation)," Keim said, referring to when Stanton suffered a concussion earlier this season. Stanton eventually was able to pass his concussion tests and was active the following week, although Carson Palmer was back by then and Stanton didn't have to play. You figure if Peterson is active, he's going to play a lot, so we'll see how he reacts to the tests and the exertion he would have to give. Every concussion is serious, but every one is also different, and there's no way to know right now how this will affect Peterson.
— The other "news" from Keim: Keim said Bruce Arians and the coaches have been praising how well guard Jonathan Cooper has been looking in practice and how he is beginning to look like the guy everyone in the organization was so high on last year before Cooper broke his leg.
"I wouldn't be surprised if in the next couple of weeks we try to work him back in there," Keim said. "I know he was in there a little bit (Sunday) on some short-yardage stuff and some unbalanced, but he continues to improve and we certainly have not lost any faith in him."
Keim was asked to define what he meant to work Cooper in. "Little bit of guard, and it's been no secret Paul Fanaika has been banged up a little bit and when you have a player with Coop's ability, you have to try and get him some snaps sooner rather than later."
— Keim said he could've given a game ball to a bunch of different players, not surprising the way it turned out. "It was nice to see Larry (Fitzgerald) have such a good game," Keim said, and agreed that veteran defensive tackle Tommy Kelly has been a major addition. "Sometimes you worry about the amount of snaps he's playing, but he has been a breath of fresh air," Keim said.

In the last-second, Eagles aftermathPosted by on October 26, 2014 – 8:31 pm
As the clock wound down and Nick Foles was trying to get the Eagles in for a touchdown and the Cardinals were trying to hang on to the lead and the University of Phoenix Stadium crowd was deafening, it was hard not to have a flashback standing on the sideline.
No, Sunday's game in no way matches the Cards' NFC championship win. But it was a big win, and it certainly caused a few heart palpitations of its own, given multiple throws into the end zone that ended up very close to game-winning scores. The heady play of Rashad Johnson to shove Jordan Matthews out on the final throw – Nate Poole would like to remind everyone the force-out rule was abandoned long ago – capped a win that frankly, seemed improbable the way it played out.
But the Cardinals weren't getting too giddy after beating the Eagles. Which is a big reason they've gotten to 6-1 in the first place. Sure, they get a Victory Monday, but the focus won't wane.
"You know what our reward for today's win is?" Larry Fitzgerald said. "A road trip to Dallas to play against the NFC East-leading team."
Still, you have to wonder, as the Cowboys prepare to play the Redskins Monday night, if those players noticed that they have to play the NFC West leaders next week. The Cardinals have holes, yes. And they seem to overcome them every single time.
— The defense will not get enough credit for Sunday. They gave up a ton of yards (521). Foles threw for a ton of yards (411 – yeah, that pass defense ranking isn't helped). But yet again, the scoreboard read only 20 points allowed. They twice forced turnovers as the Eagles smelled their goal line and another time held them out of the end zone to force a field goal – a stand that proved to be the difference in the game.
— They did all of that without Patrick Peterson. That scene, where Peterson was face-down on the turf after the helmet-to-helmet-to-helmet collision he had with Jeremy Maclin via the Deone Bucannon hit, was frightening. Peterson tweeted he was OK after the game, and Bucannon said Peterson was OK – OK in the grand scheme of things – but a scary moment. It'll be interesting to see if he can be ready for the Cowboys.
— Peterson goes out, and that's when you are very happy to have an Antonio Cromartie. And a quickly-getting-better Tyrann Mathieu.
— I counted eight deep shots (including the 30-yard pass to Fitz and a 25-yarder to Smokey Brown) Sunday. Palmer connected on three, including Brown's 75-yarder at the end. There was a flea-flicker to Michael Floyd in the first half that was out of Floyd's reach, otherwise it too might've been a TD. It's a reason why Palmer completed only 20 of 42 passes.
— But 20 of 42 can be overcome when you generate 329 yards. And when you take no sacks and throw no interceptions. Another amazing day taking care of the things that hurt an offense bad.
— Oh, and to think Palmer had a nerve problem that wasn't even letting him throw much at all three weeks ago. Could he have made the throw to Smokey Brown two weeks ago, Palmer was asked? "I'll say yeah," Palmer deadpanned. "Because you can't prove me wrong."
— The Cardinals need better pressure on the quarterback, but Arians felt moving the QB "off his spot" meant something. Unfortunately, Foles is pretty good "off his spot" – like on his 50-yard bomb on the run to Riley Cooper – but they did what they could.
"We'd like to sack him, but if he's off the spot …. He hurt us off the spot, and we lost containment once or twice, but just to get him off the spot and disrupt the play," Arians said.
— The Cardinals live and die with the blitz. So do the Eagles. That's what cost them on the Brown TD.
— Interesting Andre Ellington was the only Cardinal with a rushing attempt in the game. Although 23 carries for 71 yards won't be the production the Cardinals want or need.
— This one was memorable, for sure.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
20 May 2013 19:17 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Egypt, Israel
Egypt's army has sent reinforcements into the Sinai Peninsula after President Mohamed Morsi said there would be no talks with fighters who abducted seven members of the security forces last week.
An army official said on Monday that the decision followed a meeting between the military leadership and Morsi, who has said he will not submit to blackmail by the kidnappers, who are demanding the release of fellow fighters jailed over attacks in 2011.
The army has deployed at least five military helicopters to el-Arish, the largest city in North Sinai, where fighters kidnapped the troops, since last night after sending dozens of armoured vehicles and personnel carriers across the Suez Canal into North Sinai early on Monday.
The reinforcements came as unknown assailants attacked a police base on Monday.
The kidnapping of Egyptian troops has highlighted the lawlessness in the peninsula and enraged security forces, who have blocked border crossings into Israel and the Gaza Strip to pressure the government into helping free their colleagues.
Omar Amer, presidential spokesman, said: "All options are on the table to free the kidnapped soldiers."
The state-run Al-Ahram newspaper said on its website that shipping in the Suez Canal had been briefly halted as the reinforcements crossed the waterway.
"Our patience has run out," Al-Ahram quoted a military official as saying.
Presidential pledge
Morsi has met the the Grand Sheikh of al-Azhar, Ahmed al-Tayeb and, and the Grand Mufti of Egypt, Shawky Ibrahim Allam, to discuss developments in Sinai on Monday.
The president's office vowed in a statement late on Sunday.that authorities would secure the release of those held captive swiftly and safely and in a manner that will maintain the state's prestige.
The statement was released after Morsi met the ministers of defence and interior, head of the general intelligence, chief of staff of the armed forces, chief of operations of the armed forces and other army officials.
Morsi also said there would be no talks with "the criminals".
The kidnappers are demanding the release of fighters convicted last year of attacks that killed seven people, six of them members of the security forces.
A video posted online on Sunday showed seven blindfolded men with their hands bound above their heads, who said they were the hostages, begging Morsi to free political detainees in Sinai in exchange for their own release.
The video, which would be the first sign of the hostages since their kidnapping, could not be independently verified.Al-Masry Al-Youm, an independent newspaper, reported that parents and friends of the seven men who appeared in the video had confirmed their identities.No casualties
In Monday's attack, fighters opened fire on the riot police facility in Al-Ahrash from a truck, security officials said.
Security forces shot back at the attackers, they said. There were no casualties.
In August last year, 16 Egyptian border guards were killed in an attack blamed on armed groups who then hijacked an armoured vehicle that they smashed across the border into Israel, where they were killed by Israeli forces.
Armed groups have expanded into a security vacuum in Sinai that the state has struggled to fill since Hosni Mubarak was swept from power in 2011.
The groups have attacked targets in North Sinai and launched raids into Israel.
