SAN RAMON, CA and PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/19/12 -- WANdisco (LSE: WAND), a leading provider of global collaboration software to the software development industry, announced today it has completed the acquisition of Silicon Valley-based software company AltoStor. This acquisition underscores WANdisco's drive into the Big Data solutions market, forecasted by analyst firm Wikibon to grow 58% between 2012 and 2017 and from $5 billion to over $50 billion in the same timeframe.
AltoStor is a small, pioneering firm with a deep expertise in the Big Data market. Its founders, Dr. Konstantin Shvachko and Jagane Sundar, are among the core Apache Hadoop creators, developers and on-going contributors. Hadoop is a proven open source Big Data technology that is the backbone of many of the world's largest and most important databases utilized by companies such as Yahoo, Facebook, Netflix, Amazon and eBay.
"The AltoStor acquisition will enable WANdisco to launch products quickly into the highly-lucrative Big Data market," said WANdisco Chairman and CEO David Richards. "Combining our patented technology with AltoStor's Big Data platform will provide us with a significant competitive advantage and provide organizations with a more reliable approach for managing big data. The support AltoStor's founders have for the WANdisco story is an important part of this deal."
By applying WANdisco's patented "active-active replication" technology, currently being deployed to enable faster, more efficient software development, to Big Data, businesses could take steps to minimize data loss and realize zero downtime in operating large, mission-critical databases. WANdisco plans to announce the availability of its first Big Data-targeted solution in Q1 2013.
In addition, the AltoStor founders will join WANdisco and play a leading role in WANdisco's Big Data product development and rollout. Shvachko and Sundar have unparalleled expertise in Big Data, and specifically Hadoop, which they helped create as part of a 12-person team at Yahoo. More recently, Shvachko implemented Hadoop at eBay where he was the Principal Big Data Architect. Sundar will join as chief technology officer & vice president of engineering for Big Data and Shvachko as the chief architect of Big Data.
"Prior to this acquisition, we had a number of options including venture capital and acquisition approaches from several large Silicon Valley software companies desiring to enhance their Big Data products," said Shvachko. "When we first spoke with WANdisco, we recognized immediately that WANdisco's patented replication technology, combined with AltoStor's products and knowledge, could create a compelling product offering that virtually every enterprise looking to deploy Hadoop could utilize."
WANdisco will host a live webinar on December 11 at 10:00 a.m. PST where Richards, Shvachko and Sundar will discuss the acquisition and WANdisco's direction in the Big Data Market. For more information and to register, visit The Future of Big Data for the Enterprise.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Description: Maine Road was a football stadium in Moss Side, Manchester, England that was home to Manchester City F.C. from its construction in 1923 until 2003. It hosted FA Cup semi-finals, Charity Shield matches, a League Cup final and England matches and, because of its high capacity, gained the nickname Wembley of the North.
When Maine Road opened, it was the largest club ground in England with a capacity believed to be between 80,000 and 100,000, the second largest in the country after Wembley Stadium. Maine Road's record attendance was set in 1934, when 84,569 people attended an FA Cup tie between Manchester City and Stoke City, a record for an English club ground. Maine Road also holds the record for the highest attendance at a League game, 83,260 for Manchester United v Arsenal on 17 January 1948.
Upon demolition, its haphazard design was clear due to the ground being changed several times over its 80 year history. Maine Road was an all-seater stadium, with a capacity of 35,150. The 2002-03 season was Manchester City's last at Maine Road, with the last match played on 11 May 2003. The following season Manchester City moved to the City of Manchester Stadium in east Manchester, a mile or so from Manchester city centre.

Sculpture Embraces Horticulture Exhibit
Blithewold is a place where nature meets culture and where the wilderness of Narragansett Bay borders cultivated gardens full of indigenous and international plants that inspired our exhibit's regional, national, and international artists. The artist's contemplation of Blithewold's unique environment, from the tallest sequoia to the smallest trout lily, brings about a symbiosis of nature and technology.
The interaction between plants and their environment is so complex that plant neurobiology is a newly-emerging field. These emerging realities have intrigued and inspired the selection of artists. In "Sculpture Embraces Horticulture," we witness metal and bamboo art activated by the sun and wind, a tide clock fueled by the rise and fall of the ocean, fabric lit by photovoltaic cells, metal warmed by thermal air currents and a wind harp capturing the breeze off of Narragansett Bay.
Stroll the grounds and embrace the work of these amazing artists.

Friend laughed at our boy's name

I'm due with baby#3 next year and was speaking about names with a friend. We have chosen a boy's name (in fact, DD would have been named this). As soon as I said it she laughed out loud and said "are you serious"? I was hurt, but I know it's my fault for discussing names if I don't want to hear what people think.
So anyway, the name is Frederick William and the nickname will be Fred (that's the part she laughed at).
Surely not that bad???!!!
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:55 PM
I love Fred.
If I didn't already have a child with a name that rhymed with it, I'd use it.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:57 PM
I love Frederick and Fred.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:57 PM
I'm a teacher....there have even no Freds in the 12 years I've been teaching at three different school. But I don't dislike it. Ned has been nbecoming more popular in the past five years....why not Fred.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:58 PM
Well I like it ....but I have a Henry and a Charlie, so that person would probably have had a bit of a snort at my name choices too! (I also have a bit of a crush on crown prince Frederick of Denmark, but probably the less said about that the better....)
If you like don't worry about what other people think, but it's probably wise not to discuss names until the baby is actually born...people are less likely to be rude if you present a child and say "this is x" ...I say less likely...I guess it's not unheard of though! Good luck!
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:58 PM
I know a Frederick, his nn was Rick/Ricky as a child but as he grew older people started calling him Fred. I have no problem with that name. Don't get upset with people who have no taste!
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:59 PM
It's definitely nms but I wouldn't say it's laughable or bad.
Is it a family name? I would use an middle name if it was
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:59 PM
OP, I think it's a lovely classic name
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:01 PM
I don't think it's laughable It's a little old-fashioned but I like some old-fashioned names.
Honestly it's probably ahead of the curve, from the way I've heard people talking about Alfred (half of them planning to use Fred as the nickname) coming back. Could go up the ranks in 10-15 years. There might eventually be more little Freds/Freddies than your friend expects.
I wouldn't let your friend get to you unless you share taste a lot. And even then, not necessarily. It's funny what pings "old/funny" to some people while others don't. My sister loves Alfred but thinks Henry is too dusty, and I would have flipped that.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:01 PM
I love that name, classic but not overused. Don't be put off by your friend's rudeness. Some people just engage mouth before putting brain in gear, not much you can do but shrug it off and stick with your own plans.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:04 PM
OP I love the name Frederick. I have been noticing it being discussed on the baby name boards a bit lately, and know a newborn called Freddie. I agree with La Di Dah, it's popularity is on the rise.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:07 PM
Don't read too much into it. It's obvious from reading name threads that people are influenced by prior experience with a name. Your friend might have had a stuffed donkey called Fred when she was 3, or been sold uncomfortable shoes by a Fred, or read the Fred Bassett comics in the paper every Sunday as a kid.
I think it is a good, solid name that has endured in many cultures for centuries. I know a 2 year old Freddie who is divine and his name fits like a glove.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:07 PM
I have a cousin called Frederick Charles, nn Fred.
He's a teenager. No issues with his name AFAIK. Once the person owns it, that's it. And it is classic.

I love the name but unfortunately it doesn't go with our surname otherwise it would be number 1. I have a friend named Fred (not sure if he is a Frederick or just Fred) and I was mentioning him in conversation and a colleague (young idiot of thing) exclaimed "omg is he name actually Fred?" in a snarky, stuck up tone.
I think Fred is an old fashioned name and not common amongst the younguns like Alfred, George, walter etc. but it's lovely.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:09 PM
A friend of mine laughed at me when I said that I liked the name Harry. This was 10 years ago, then when we used the name, nearly 8 years ago, people were kind of suprised at 'such an old fashioned name' - look how many Harry's there are around now! Naming fashions come and go, Fred is kinda cool.

I really really like Fred. I think it's a great name, can be cutened to "Freddie" or formal by calling him the full name. Works on all levels and ages in my mind.

It's NMS, too old fashioned, but I would never laugh at someone considering it. I would just think they liked older more traditional names, nothing wrong with that
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:19 PM
Love Frederick and would totally use it except DS is Edward (NN Eddie).
I think her response would be very unusual, it is not a strange or out there name at all.
Off topic: Love you DD's name as well.

Sorry, I would have thought you were joking too. It's not what I'd call a child of mine but then I'm not the one having the baby. If you like it, use it.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:22 PM
What's wrong with Fred? It's not my style but not a name I would laugh about. I thought you were going to tell us some bizare name or some weird spelling of a classic but fred is a very normal name. Your friend is a jerk.
Posted 11 November 2012 - 04:24 PM
The exact same thing happened to a friend of mine with a far more old fashioned, 'old man' name than Frederick.
The woman in case didn't mean to be tactless, it 'just came out'. She's off the xmas card list though.

Basically saying it's so much harder for girls, one day her and a friend (one of the other singers) were sitting around despairing and she said I wish we could just write Dolly Parton a letter, she'd know what to do.

U.S. Army takes delivery of iPhone app for Patriot Missile training
By Darren Quick
February 21, 2011
Want to learn how to launch a Patriot missile? Turns out there's an app for that. Incorporating video of actual Patriot Missile crews in action as well as 3D animation and illustrations, C² Technologies, Inc.'s Patriot Missile mobile app trains Patriot missile crews how to position and ready the Patriot missile system to launch and fire. The app is designed to not only provide training for soldiers at any time and any place, but also to offer access to critical information in the field.
In late September 2010, the U.S. Army selected C² to develop a series of apps for training Patriot missile crews. The company has just delivered the first segment in what will be a series of seven iPhone apps the company will ultimately provide to the Army. It was developed using the Unity 3D game development platform and using a "develop once, use twice" technical approach, the C² developed mobile apps can also be used on laptops and desktop computers as well as iPhones.
C² will deliver the seven apps along with associated Interactive Multimedia Instruction (IMI) training lessons designed for use in a classroom with an instructor. Each app will cover one of the following seven areas:
- Launch Station march order and emplacement
- Radar march order and emplacement
- Engagement Control Station march order and emplacement
- Antenna Mast Group march order and emplacement
- Electrical Power Plant march order and emplacement
- Missile reload
- Radar maintenance
This isn't the first time the U.S. Army has turned to computer games to train its soldiers, and isn't even the first time it has made use of mobile gaming platforms. Since 2002 the America's Army videogame has been available as a free download to not only train soldiers but entice people to enlist. In the eleven years since its launch there have been 26 versions released, including America's Army: Special Operations for mobile phones.Share
I think that is neat. Perhaps it should be called iLaunchIt? :)BigGoofyGuy

How to Set Up and Use Tripwire
After everything has been placed in the proper directories, either from a binary package or compiling the sources, the first action to take as root is to generate two robust—that is, hard to guess—passphrases. The first one (site passphrase) is used to encrypt and sign the Tripwire system files. The second one (local passphrase) is necessary to launch the Tripwire binaries.
Theoretically, the Tripwire distribution should include an /etc/tripwire/twinstall.sh script that should prompt the user for passphrases and other information and then perform all the steps below. At the time of this writing, both the Tripwire 2.3.1 RPM package for Fedora Core 4 tested for this article and several on-line tutorials still say to use that script, but it just wasn't there after the installation. In any case, the utility that performs these tasks is twadmin. Because it has a complete man page, and it should be used anyway if you want to change keys after installation, we just show how it works. The actions described above are executed with the following commands:
twadmin --generate-keys --site-keyfile my_home_key ↪--site-passphrase 'Hello LJ readers' twadmin --generate-keys --local-keyfile my_local_key ↪--local-passphrase 'Penguins are cool'
This leaves the two keys encoded in the my_home_key and, respectively, my_local_key files. Remember to copy these two names in the twcfg.txt file before running twadmin:
SITEKEYFILE =/etc/tripwire/my_home_key LOCALKEYFILE =/etc/tripwire/my_local_key
Once the passphrases have been stored, the configuration file must be encrypted in this way:
twadmin --create-cfgfile --cfgfile twcfg.enc ↪--site-keyfile my_home_key twcfg.txt Please enter your site passphrase: Wrote configuration file: /etc/tripwire/twcfg.enc
The procedure to create a binary version of the policy is similar:
twadmin --create-polfile --cfgfile twcfg.enc --polfile ↪twpol.enc --site-keyfile my_home_key twpol.txt
The difference, with respect to the former command, is that now the encrypted configuration file must be passed to twadmin. The reason why the two files must be encrypted is that Tripwire will discover if they are corrupted much more easily than if they were in plain-text format. In order to directly read such files, you need (besides the passphrases, obviously) the -print-cfgfile or --print-polfile options of twadmin.
Once the passphrases and system files are all set, it's time to go into what the documentation calls Database Initialization Mode:
tripwire --init --cfgfile twcfg.enc --polfile tw.pol ↪--site-keyfile my_home_key --local-keyfile my_local_key
By default, the result is stored in /var/lib/tripwire/YOURHOSTNAME.twd. Path and name can be changed in twcfg.txt or given as a command-line option. Eventually, if everything goes fine, you'll be greeted by this message:
Wrote database file: /var/lib/tripwire/YOURHOSTNAME.twd The database was successfully generated
As soon as encrypted system files, passphrases and a complete snapshot of your system are available, Tripwire finally can do the only thing we really care about—that is, to check the integrity of our computers periodically. This is normally accomplished by running the program as a cron job with this switch:
tripwire --check
Note that, just to allow secure, automatic usage the program doesn't need passphrases when launched in this way. Consequently, there is no need to write them in plain text anywhere. The integrity report is printed both to STDOUT (so it can be e-mailed to the system administrator) and saved in the location specified by the REPORTFILE variable in the configuration file. How often this operation should be performed depends on how critical the system is and how often it is exposed to external attacks. Although a corporate firewall should be checked daily, a weekly check may be enough for a department print server behind it or a regular desktop.
Figure 1 shows an example of what a Tripwire report looks like. It tells you, for every rule defined in the policy, which of the corresponding files were added, changed or modified. Command-line options are available to check only specific sections of the policy file, or just some files. This could be useful, for example, when nothing was modified in the system, but there is the suspicion that some particular disc or partition was damaged.
The integrity checking procedure also can be interactive. Adding the -interactive switch causes Tripwire to open an editor, after the check, to allow the user to declare which files should be permanently updated in the Tripwire database. This is a manual alternative to the update mode described below.

I'm using Tripwire 184.108.40.206 on RHEL 4 and I am having problems at the encryption step. I don't have the twcfg.enc file needed to encrypt the config and policy files. Any ideas?
Read those steps again. You
Read those steps again. You don't have it initially. You create twcfg.enc.

hue.ha@gwinnettdailypostLAWRENCEVILLE - The Gwinnett County Sheriff's Department has arrested a Lawrenceville man on charges of failing to register as a sex offender in Illinois and driving violations in Georgia and Illinois. Frederick Jay Horton, 34, of Lawrenceville is accused of violating the Illinois sex offender registry law, an arrest warrant said. Aggravating circumstances included living unregistered as a sex offender in Georgia, the warrant said. Last week, the Sheriff's Department arrested eight sex offenders after implementing a new satellite mapping system. Six offenders failed to move after notified they were violating sex offender registration guidelines by living within 1,000 feet of a day care, school, church or community swimming pool. The mapping system more concisely measured addresses to locations of interest. Horton had been wanted by the Lawrenceville Police Department for charges of failing to appear in a DUI case. He also was wanted in Will County, Ill., for charges of driving with a suspended license. The sex registry warrant was sent from Cook County, Ill. Cook and Will counties are in the Chicago area. Further details were not available from Gwinnett Sheriff's Department officials.

ICC and Israel: Claims of Genocide and the Means to Stop It
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Michael Ratner, president emeritus of the Center for Constitutional Rights recently had a piece titled "UN's Investigation of Israel Should Go Beyond War Crimes to Genocide," in which he states that the actions by Israel in Gaza fit the legal definition of genocide under the convention.
There have been a series of calls for genocide or ethnic cleansing of Palestinians among Israeli officials and in the Israeli media. See from the Daily Mail (UK): "Israeli official calls for concentration camps in Gaza and 'the conquest of the entire Gaza Strip, and annihilation of all fighting forces and their supporters'" about Moshe Feiglin, deputy speaker of the Israeli Knesset.
The Guardian reports: "Palestinian leaders poised to join ICC in order to pursue Israel for war crimes."
JOHN QUIGLEY, quigley.2 at osu.edu
Professor emeritus of international law at Ohio State University, Quigley's books include The Statehood of Palestine: International Law in the Middle East Conflict and Genocide in Cambodia. Quigley was an expert witness in the trial of Pol Pot.
Quigley and Francis Boyle (below) concur that the Genocide Convention should be invoked with regard to Israel's recent attack on Gaza. They differ on the issue of International Criminal Court. Quigley believes that the Palestinians should appeal to the ICC; Boyle argues that the ICC has been completely corrupted.
Quigley does criticize the ICC, however, noting for example that the ICC claimed in a statement on Tuesday that it had not "received any official document from Palestine indicating acceptance of ICC jurisdiction." Quigley noted that the Palestine National Authority had done so in 2009, the letter is on the ICC's website. [PDF]
Quigley's view was also articluated by John Dugard, the former UN special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories, on Wednesday's "Democracy Now!": "It is possible for the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to exercise jurisdiction, to initiate an investigation already, without any more due. And this is confirmed by the fact that in the last few weeks the minister of justice and the deputy minister of justice of Palestine have submitted documents to the International Criminal Court indicating that, as far as they are concerned, the 2009 declaration is still valid. So, I must confess that I hold the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court partly responsible for the fact that no proceedings have been initiated against Israel and Hamas before the International Criminal Court."
Quigley stressed that the manner in which the Palestinians entered into the ICC in 2009 would cover violations of law going back to 2002.
FRANCIS BOYLE, fboyle at illinois.edu
Boyle is a professor at the University of Illinois College of Law and author of Palestine, Palestinians, and International Law and The Tamil Genocide by Sri Lanka. He said today: "The ICC has shown that the hope that many of us had for it was not deserved, it's been a tool of the pro-Israeli Western powers. Under no circumstances must the Palestinians accede to the Rome Statute for the International Criminal Court. ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda is 'Black Skin, White Masks' a la Frantz Fanon. She will decapitate the entire Palestinian political leadership. The Palestinians will be back to where they were before the founding of the PLO in 1964."
Instead, Boyle recommends that nations that are signatory to the Genocide Convention invoke it against Israel at the World Court. Numerous world leaders, including the presidents of Bolivia, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Pakistan and Iran have referred to Israel's actions as genocidal.
Says Boyle: "An appropriate legal remedy is to apply the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide against Israel at the World Court. Palestinians have been victims of genocide by that treaty's definition. In 1993 I won two World Court Orders on the basis of the 1948 Genocide Convention that were overwhelmingly in favor of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina against Yugoslavia to cease and desist from committing all acts of genocide against the Bosnians in violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention. I won the first emergency order in three weeks.
"In the event the United States were to exercise a veto at the Security Council against the enforcement of this World Court Cease-and-Desist Order against Israel, you can then invoke the General Assembly's Uniting for Peace Resolution of 1950 in order to have the World Court Order turned over to the United Nations General Assembly for enforcement measures against Israel." Boyle was legal advisor to Dr. Haidar Abdul Shaffi, chair of the Palestinian delegation to the Middle East peace negotiations from 1991-1993.
See: "If It's a Genocide in Gaza, then Invoke the Convention to Stop it" by Sam Husseini.
"War Crimes in Gaza? Genocide?"
LIA TARACHANSKY, [in Israel] lia at therealnews.com,
Tarachansky is a Jaffa-based filmmaker and the Israel-Palestine correspondent for The Real News. See her recent piece "Inside Israel's Pro-War Nationalist Camp."
See from The Real News: "Deputy Speaker of Israeli Knesset Calls for Expulsion and Jewish Reoccupation of Gaza: Max Blumenthal tells Paul Jay that Moshe Feiglin's program is part of a growing incitement to genocide against Palestinians."
See from the Electronic Intifada: "Israeli lawmaker's call for genocide of Palestinians gets thousands of Facebook likes."

This Mission: Impossible 5 Trailer Is As Ridiculous As It Needs To Be

Callin' it: the official trendy word to include in your franchise entry is ROGUE.

When it comes to movie series, the third time is definitely not the charm.

Yes, it's true. Tom Cruise did all his own stunts on Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol — including running around on top of the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa. » 12/19/11 3:50pm 12/19/11 3:50pm
The Mission Impossible movies are still kicking box-office ass, at least judging from Ghost Protocol's IMAX limited opening. This is kind of a miracle, since most movies based on TV shows fall flat.

By all rights, a fourth Mission Impossible film should be a disaster. A played-out film series, a leading man who's pushing 50 and a tired Cold War premise should add up to total boredom. But somehow, instead, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is a splashy festival of crazy. » 12/16/11 11:18am 12/16/11 11:18am
Tom Cruise is coming back! He's starring in a fourth Mission Impossible movie this weekend, and he's also set to star in two upcoming science fiction films: Joseph Kosinski's Horizons and the movie version of the Japanese alien-fighting novel All You Need Is Kill. » 12/15/11 1:23pm 12/15/11 1:23pm
When we heard there was going to be another Mission: Impossible, we thought, "Sure." But once Pixar legend Brad Bird signed on to direct, everything changed.

Tim Robbins Returning to Directing with Endgame's 'City of Lies' (Exclusive)
Tim Robbins has signed a deal to return to directing with City of Lies, Endgame Entertainment's adaptation of Arthur Phillips' short story Wenceslas Square.
While Robbins is best known for his work in front of the cameras, he helmed a trio of features in the 1990s, including the acclaimed Dead Man Walking (1995). He most recently directed a couple of episodes of HBO's New Orleans-set drama Treme.
Lies concerns two spies who fall in love while participating in separate missions in Prague. Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, whose credits range from The Life and Death of Peter Sellers to Captain America to Michael Bay's upcoming action movie Pain & Gain, are adapting Phillips' story, which aired on radio's This American Life last summer.
Phillip Noyce previously was attached to direct.
Endgame's James D. Stern is producing along with Ira Glass and Alissa Shipp of This American Life. Endgame will finance the movie, with its Julie Goldstein overseeing production and Douglas E. Hansen exec producing.
Robbins is repped by UTA and 3 Arts Entertainment.
Markus and McFeely are repped by UTA and attorney David Colden.

Challenging the wisdom of charging into a region the West has shown a reckless propensity to misunderstand is not cowardly -- it is prudent. Innocent people are indeed dying and have already died, but will our bombs "save" them? Probably not. In fact, there's a risk they may accelerate the killing. Asking these questions is not naive. Not asking them is downright foolish.
Cooperation between Arctic stakeholders is crucial for each country's success in dealing with climate change. We are in a new era of sustainable development as the Arctic presents us with major opportunities and major responsibilities. Cooperation is the only tool to ensure ethical, social, and ecological sustainable development.
If you are a man and reading this, you might be thinking "But not all men would hurt women." That's true. Not all men would. But all women have been dehumanized by a man. That's what's forgotten in this conversation -- there's so much defensiveness from men. Please listen to what we have to say. We're telling you that this happens enough that every woman has a story. Not all men do this, but enough men do that the default is to be distrustful and wary around men. Elliot Rodger believed in the lies the Men's Rights Activist Movement told him.
Storage Wars, and its regional counterpart Storage Wars Texas, have made a killing off showing off the unsavoury, grimy side of failed capitalism: buying the contents of abandoned storage lockers in the hope of making a cheap buck. The mediocre aspirations of the show are depressing enough but the lack of class analysis is even more depressing.
In Canada, we like to play it safe and for the most part, it's paid off. Tight regulations and the centralization of banking powers helped us weather the economic storm of 2008. But we're a different Canada now. Canada's potential is remarkable, we need to believe in that potential and invest in its development before looking elsewhere for inspiration. It's all right here.
A recent study by Nielsen shows that advertisers, big and small, are turning to the Internet to push their brands. Though many respondents said they still plan to use online advertising for direct response, more and more are spending money on digital brand advertising to promote their company, product or service.
Personal learnings from the Countering Violent Extremism portfolio echoed the sentiments that Justin Trudeau expressed following the Boston Bombings -- to get to the root cause to prevent future attacks. Last year I had the chance to work with the Department of Public Safety on National Security Policy, and if there's one thing that you need to focus on in preventing any kind of violence from happening -- whether it be localized gun violence or terrorism -- it's the root cause. Mind you, gun violence and extremism are two very different animals, but what they do share in common is an immature and ridiculous sense of expression through violence.
Monday's Canada vs. the States soccer game was so good it made you forget you were watching women's soccer, or care (if you did). Too often, female athletes have to fight for airtime, and for recognition. It shouldn't be like that, but sports are sexist in nature. We're all guilty of slighting female athletes. So, thank God for Monday, because we can't now. Compared to this, Usain Bolt's thrilling 9.63 seconds was like a warmup to something better.
It has certainly been a global sporting affair this summer. With EuroCup 2012 in the history books, the world is now prepping for more sporting love with the upcoming London 2012 Summer Olympics. In that spirit, we thought what better way to show our love than with this photo feature by Shanghai-based fashion photographer Yocky Zhang. Shot in Shanghai, Zhang takes us on a global excursion filled with flags, colour and international models.
Leonard Peltier, now 68, has been in prison for 35 years. Since 1977, petitions and pleas on his behalf have been ignored; appeals by the Arhbshiop of Canterbury, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Nelson Mandela, 55 U.S. Congressmen, and Canadian Parliamentarians, and members of the European Parliament Union. But the FBI is adamant that he killed two of their agents.
Pragmatically, there is no need for outside intervention when it comes to Syria. Yes, a lot of people are being killed, but perhaps more would be killed if outside forces were used to despose Assad. And unlike conventional war, a revolution is a personal thing for those involved. When outsiders participate, the dynamics change. And revolutions never turn out the way those who lead them expect, or even intend.
After decades of mistaken policy with the Middle East, the U.S. should do what's necessary to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power, and get rid of Assad and his sycophancy to Tehran. America has a very poor track record with the Middle East, and will simply, eventually, have to do better than this.
The reluctance of the United States to be involved even peripherally in an almost open-ended series of concurrent Middle Eastern conflicts is understandable. But Syria is aflame. Its regime has been a notorious terrorist exporter for decades, and is the chief conduit for Iran into the Arab world, the principal supporter of Hezbollah and Hamas.
