With Android 4.0+, Google introduced the Holo scheme of design principles that promoted clean and digitally authentic design. Many third-party apps have since adopted these design themes, but the phenomenon isn't exclusive to just social networking clients and calculators. In this roundup, we'll be taking a look at fifteen awesome Holo-inspired games that you can grab for your Android handset from the Play Store today!
It's amazing how quickly the variety and quality of games have increased and improved in the Play Store over the past couple of years. There are now tons of titles available for Android devices in every genre, with graphics and gameplay that rival those seen on games for best-selling portable consoles. Don't believe me? What if I told you the new kid on the block is a 2D side-scrolling pixel art endless running arcade fighter?
Besides being a mouthful, that's really the best way to describe Punch Quest, the latest release from Noodlecake Studios, publishers of such casual entertainers as Ready Steady Bang, Zombie Road Trip and Huebrix (which we loved to bits and reviewed here). You play a dashing hero clearing his way out of a dungeon filled with ghouls and creepies, and you're not afraid to let your fists do the talking. Let's see if all these genres come together to create a knockout title, shall we?
Unstoppaball DX probably isn't the best of games to play on the move. Evoking the abstract physics-based platform rolling of 1984 Atari hit Marble Madness — and to a lesser extent the more recent Super Monkey Ball series — it asks you to steer a ball through hazardous environments by tilting your device.
While it doesn't have the depth of those forebears, it's a fun, challenging, well-designed exercise in steady handedness and virtual rolling.
If you own an Android device and you're reading this site, chances are that you're a tech-oriented person and your life involves other gadgets and operating systems, whether it's a computer running Windows or Mac OS, or an iOS device — iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. While each of these platforms seems to include more proprietary services and apps with every new release, there still is — thankfully — a middle ground where it's possible to make different devices talk to each other.
It's this middle ground, and the tricks and apps that make use of it, that we have explored and dug deep into over the past couple of months. Over the course of two different series, we explained how you can use your Android device with a Windows or a Mac computer, as well as how you can keep it in sync with different iOS devices. Here are all the articles grouped together for easy referencing and bookmarking:

I have used Android since late 2010, when it started becoming a more mature operating system and a respected player on the market. Although I switched to Google's platform about 2 years after its initial release, the system has kept on evolving, and came to be my favorite mobile operating system. Android has been a trendsetter over the years and has introduced several handy innovations, such as a central notification hub, remote installation of applications and more. Even today, Android has features neither iOS nor Windows Phone or Blackberry have and remains a source of inspiration thanks to its unified sharing system and widgets.
Nonetheless, not all Android devices are consistent and easy to use at first, and many find iOS to be simpler to get accustomed to. While I don't fully agree with this, I have compared the ease of use of my iPad with my Galaxy Note II, and it is clear that there are instances where Android could learn a bit from the simplicity of iOS.
I'm relatively new to the joy of podcast listening. Although I've been invited to speak on some podcasts before, I never bothered to subscribe or listen to any as I've always preferred getting my news through reading. But preferences change and about three months ago, I noticed that I do at least ten hours of driving per week and that time is getting lost on radio shows with countless ads or on music I'm bored of hearing. Those ten hours had to be invested more efficiently and so I found myself tempted by podcasts.
Fast forward three months and I'm addicted to my podcast subscriptions. I've gotten used to the voice, the character and the style of every person I listen to, and I now prefer getting most of my news this way. It's more personal than reading, more raw, and more engaging and interesting.
All of my podcast needs are catered by Pocket Casts — which we reviewed a while ago, before it got its major redesign — and I'll show you in this post how I make the most of its features to stay on top of my 28 podcast subscriptions.
Every year there's one Monday morning in June where the company Google loves to hate takes the very same stage that previously hosted Android announcements to present updates to iOS, amongst other things. This year was no difference but with a rumoured significant design change, the 2013 instalment is perhaps one of the most anticipated.
iOS 7 has delivered a new design with a skeuomorphic-less, flatter design somewhat resemblant of the design principles of Google's Holo and Microsoft's Metro. In this article, we're going to take a look at iOS 7 and see how it stacks up to the incumbent versions of Android.
Spend any time using your phone or tablet and it's hard to avoid using the keyboard. Whether knocking out a quick email or typing URLs into your browser, there's a limit to what you can get done without having to type. And chances are that the keyboard baked into your copy of Android is nothing to write home about — there are few stock keyboards that really cut the mustard.
Sitting at my desktop or using my laptop, I'm a fairly accomplished typist — I'm probably not the fastest in the world, but I'm certainly faster than average. The same cannot really be said when I'm using my Android devices — touchscreens offer a completely different way of interacting with a device and it proves, on the most part, to be a slower form of typing. This is why I find myself on a constant mission to track down the perfect keyboard. If you're on a similar quest, and whatever your preferred style of typing — one-handed, two-handed, gesture input, just a forefinger — this roundup of the pick of the crop should help you find a keyboard that suits you.
It's been a relatively slow week for Android news, with the industry instead being dominated by news out of Apple's WWDC and the various shows at E3 in LA. However, the Android camp did make announcements, albeit ones that stayed away from phones and tablets, instead coming in the form of Samsung's camera-centric Galaxy device.
Let's jump in and take a look at what's been going on in the world of Android this mid-June week!
In the second of a new series on Android.Appstorm, I look in turn at each of the Android manufacturers and the changes they make to Android's start up, interface and basic functionality. In each case, does the end result justify the huge investment in programming time and the resulting delays for end users in seeing each new version and update for the Android OS?
HTC's Sense interface has received much criticism over the years, principally because it presented a face to Android that was just a little too different to stock. This was rarely an issue for new users, many of whom grew up with Sense, but switching from a Samsung or Motorola (or Nexus) device would typically involve a lot of head scratching and set-up time. Sense 5.0, here on the HTC One, is actually something of a rewrite — so forget everything you ever knew about Sense, this is more streamlined and refined. And, indeed, arguably close enough to stock Android that few may want to spend time hacking it around.
Up front and central is the new BlinkFeed homescreen, of which more later. Integrating social feeds into Sense has always been something HTC has been keen on, and the company has knocked it out of the park here.

Greene County is the place to be this weekendPosted Wednesday, April 22, 2009, at 8:36 PM
Old man winter seemed to be fighting to stick around on a couple of days this week, but this looks like the weekend when he finally gets chased out of Greene County. The weather forecast says sunny and breezy with highs near 80 -- perfect.
Besides gardening and yard work and spring cleaning, there's plenty to do.
Saturday starts with a biscuit and gravy and pancake breakfast at the Lyons Senior Center from 7-10 a.m. The cost is a donation of any amount. It's not just for Lyons folks -- if you're going out for coffee, why not drive down and help a good cause? Plus, everyone knows Seniors are the best cooks in the county. They're also having a bake sale and raffling off some fancy pots and pans.
After breakfast, gardeners might want to wander north -- the Worthington Garden Club is having its Spring Plant Auction in the Community Building at the Worthington Park. This is a big event -- its main fundraiser. The gardeners bring in plants (and some crafty items too) and starts and cuttings from their own gardens. They auction them off one at a time and it's a lot of fun. High quality -- low price. The auction starts at 10 a.m. but I'd go a bit early to check out the plants and see what they've got to eat. They always have a free food table. This one isn't just for Worthington folks -- everyone is invited and the club members themselves are from all over.
In Linton, I saw in Community Notes that the library is having a "Spring Fling" from 12:30 p.m. until mid-afternoon. It's a music celebration with a live bluegrass band followed by steel drums.
At the Greene County Fairgrounds east of Switz City, the Master Gardeners are having their annual Flower and Patio Show this weekend. You get in free to wander through all kinds of booths and demonstrations. Plants will be for sale and their ad says "free trees" plus food and a raffle. That's going on from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday and on Sunday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Also in Worthington -- a long-awaited event -- the official re-opening of the Hinchman Shelterhouse in the Worthington Park.
The shelterhouse was absolutely devastated in the Great Flood of 2008 last June and it's taken all this time to get it back in order. It was a terrible mess. Everything in there was ruined. And members of the Park Board had a lot of extra work to do that wasn't in the job description when they volunteered to serve. They made it through. The whole building has been gutted and refurbished with new everything including paint, kitchen appliances, furnace, etc.
They're celebrating by hosting an open house on Saturday from 2-4 p.m. They want everyone to stop in and see the building and enjoy a walk in the park. They're serving free pie and ice cream.
Sometime between 3:30 and 4 p.m., a LifeEvac helicopter will be flying in and landing behind the Eastern Greene High School. They're coming in to put the medical helicopter on display during a School Carnival sponsored by the ACE organization.
The carnival starts at 4 p.m. with games, prizes, food and more until 8 p.m. It'll be around the upper balcony of the gym with food in the cafeteria. Everyone is invited and it looks to be a very special event in the Eastern community. Organizer Mistie Anderson had some of games set up at the last school board meeting and they were really neat. Someone's been doing some fancy woodworking in the shop over there to create such unique games.
It's a weekend to get out and go somewhere, but maybe not to Monroe County. This is Little 5 weekend over there -- yesiree, Greene County's the place to be.

Driven Anderson brings power to Knights offense
At one point, no OHL team wanted Josh Anderson to pull their sweater over his head. But that day of disappointment is long in the rear-view mirror as the London Knights' 6'2" power forward has driven himself to becoming not only an NHL draft pick, but also on the short list to don the red and white of Team Canada during the upcoming 2014 World Junior Championship.
Otters' Dansk feeling comfortable in his home away from home
Oscar Dansk's journey in life has taken him from Sweden to the U.S., back to Sweden, and now finds him holding down the fort in between the pipes in Erie, PA. And the Columbus Blue Jackets' prospect is hoping that his next journey will be with his Otters' teammates deep into the OHL playoffs.
Columbus Blue Jackets possess lots of high-end talent in Canadian major juniors
The Columbus Blue Jackets seem to be drawn to the OHL. Five of their eight prospects playing junior hockey hail from Ontario's league, led by goaltender Oscar Dansk and wingers Kerby Rychel and Josh Anderson. The three prospects not playing in the OHL are Oliver Bjorkstrand, Peter Quenneville, and Dillon Heatherington, who all play in the WHL.

Militants on Monday attacked a team of polio vaccinators in the restive Bajaur tribal region of north-west Pakistan, killing security personnel.
The members of the polio vaccination team were unharmed, officials were quoted as saying by TV news channels.
The attackers gunned down a paramilitary personnel protecting the vaccinators.
Taliban factions in the country's north-west have banned polio vaccination campaigns over the past two years.
In April, a policeman was killed and another seriously injured when militants attacked a team of polio vaccinators in Mardan town of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
In January, six women and a man working for a NGO involved in the polio vaccination campaign were shot dead in Swabi district.
In December, eight volunteers involved in a polio vaccination drive were gunned down in a string of attacks in the southern port city of Karachi and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
The attacks prompted UN agencies to withdraw their workers from the campaign.

Remember When Joe Biden Said in 2007 that George W. Bush Should Be Impeached for What Barack Obama is About to Do?
Oh the hypocrisy from the LEFT …
Remember when Senator Joe Biden wanted Bush impeached for the very thing that Barack Obama is about to do? So what is different, oh it's Barack Obama. So what is the difference? Oh that's right, the current president is not a Republican. So if Obama attacks Syria without Congressional approval, will Biden be the first to file articles of impeachment against Barack Obama?
In 2007, Senator Joe Biden repeatedly threatened to lead an effort to impeach President George W. Bush in the House should he attack Iran without congressional authorization. Senator Obama agreed that Bush did not have the power to order a strike on Iran. This was not mindless, partisan saber rattling: Vice President Dick Cheney and the neoconservative establishment were actively pushing Bush to take military action against Iran.
On Hardball, Biden emphatically and passionately told Chris Matthews that Bush had "no constitutional authority … to take this nation to war against a county of 70 million people unless we're attacked or unless there is proof we are about to be attacked. And if he does, if he does, I would move to impeach him." Biden was absolutely correct to point out the illegality of Bush's intentions and threaten him with impeachment.
It turns out that his Democratic primary opponent and eventual running mate, then-Senator Joe Biden, had even stronger views about presidents attacking other nations without Congress's permission:
Chris Matthews: You said that if the United States had launched at attack on Iran without Congressional approval, that would've been an impeachable offense. Do you want to review that comment you made?
Joe Biden: Absolutely. I want to stand by that comment I made. The reason I made the comment was as a warning. I don't say those things lightly, Chris. you've known me for a long time. I was Chairman of the Judiciary Committee for 17 years. I teach separation of powers in Constitutional law. This is something I know. So I brought a group of Constitutional scholars together to write a piece that I'm going to deliver to the whole United States Senate pointing out that the president HAS NO CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY to take this country to war against a country of 70 million people unless we're attacked or unless there is proof that we are about to be attacked. And if he does, I would move to impeach him. The House obviously has to do that, but I would lead an effort to impeach him. The reason for my doing that — and I don't say it lightly, I don't say it lightly.
This is a striking statement.
What a joke, GWB's three biggest critics when it came to his foreign policy were Sens. Barack Obama, Joe Biden and John Kerry. Now suddenly they are all hawks!

Former President George W. Bush's Favorability in the Positive for First Time Since 2005
George W. Bush, do you miss me yet?
According to a recent Gallup poll, former President George W. Bush has a higher favorable than unfavorable for the first time since 2005. When Bush left office in January 2009, he has a 40% favorably and 59% unfavorably. It was even worse than that one later. However, according to the most recent poll GWB has a 49% favorable and 46% unfavorable view. George W. Bush has pretty much stayed out of the public eye since leaving office and has remained quiet when it comes to politics and his successor. One has to wonder whether the current occupant of the White House will do the same. With the current state of affairs with the numerous scandals in the Obama administration, a continued poor economy, record number of Americans on Food Stamps, median household income down, and a Middle East that is on fire many Americans probably will pose the question to themselves, "Miss Me Yet?"
GWB did some things that were questionable in the eyes of conservatives and did escalate the US national debt; however, it was nothing compared to Barack Obama as he has skyrocketed the debt to out of control limits. Bush's favorability is making a come back, but he has a long way to go. Many have said, history will be more kind to "W" as we look back on his presidency and realize he had to make many tough decisions that were important to protect America but was not popular for him.
Americans' views of former president George W. Bush have improved, with 49% now viewing him favorably and 46% unfavorably. That is the first time since 2005 that opinions of him have been more positive than negative.
Bush has maintained a fairly low profile in the four years since he left office. However, he returned to the public eye this year with the April opening of his presidential library at Southern Methodist University in Dallas.
Bush left office with 40% viewing him favorably and 59% unfavorably in January 2009. That worsened to 35% favorable and 63% unfavorable in March 2009, but his favorable rating recovered to the mid-40% range by 2010.
CNN: America starting to remember "W" fondly.
Breaking it down further, Bush has seen improvement among independents and both political parties. Twenty-four percent of Democrats view him in a positive light, according to the new survey, compared to 10% in January 2009. Republicans saw a 14 percentage point jump, with 84% now having a positive opinion of Bush.
The biggest increase came among independents. While 29% gave him a favorable rating in 2009, that number now stands at 46%.

UNBELIEVABLE Obama Cronies Blaming George W. Bush for IRS Targeting Conservative Groups & Tea Party
Obama White House spokesman Jay Carney said, said in response to a question about the I.R.S. targeting conservative groups, that the I.R.S. is run by a George W. Bush political appointee. Huh? So let's get this straight, the Obama is blaming George W. Bush for the IRS targeting conservative groups like the Tea Party under their watch? Seriously? When will this gutless administration ever take responsibility for anything? Remember when Barack Obama promised "We the People" the most transparent White House evah?
"I.R.S. is an independent enforcement agency," said Carney. "The — which I believe, as I understand it, contains only two political appointees within it. The individual who is running the I.R.S. at the time was actually an appointee from the previous administration."
The previous administration was George W. Bush's administration.
WHAT A JOKE. Just how many scandals is it going to take for the American people to become completely disgusted with the Obama administration? We have had 'Fast & Furious" the gun walking scandal that was responsible for the death of two US border guards, refusal to secure Bengazi consulate that resulted in four Americans were murdered including Ambassador Stevens, the cover-up of what happened in Benghazi, government loans to "green" energy companies who were campaign donors, the Obamacare lies and the government take over of health care,
The full list of Obama scandals can be read at Powerline and HERE.
Jenna Bush Hager Gives Birth to Baby Girl … Margaret Laura 'Mila' Hager, Making GWB and Laura Bush Grandparents
Congratulations to Jenna Bush Hager and her husband Henry Hager on the birth of their daughter, Margaret Laura 'Mila' Hager. The baby was named after her two grandmothers and already has a nickname — "Mila." It would appear that this is a Bush family tradition, as Jenna and twin Barbara were named after their grandmothers, too. 31 year old Jenna Bush Hager, wow, I cannot believe she is 31, where have the years gone, gave birth to her first child last night, April 13, at 8:43pm in New York City and an undisclosed NYC hospital.
Former first couple George W. and Laura Bush said Sunday they were "elated" at the news their daughter Jenna had given birth to a girl.
"Laura and I are thrilled to announce the birth of our grandchild, Margaret Laura 'Mila' Hager," the first-time grandparents wrote in a statement, noting the new addition to the Bush family was named for her grandmothers.
"She was born last night, April 13, at 8:43pm in New York City. We met our beautiful granddaughter today. Jenna and Mila are healthy. And our family is elated," they continued.
Jenna Bush Hager, 31, announced in December that she was expecting her first child, who is also the first grandchild for the former president and his wife. At the time, she said she was "nervous and so excited" about the pregnancy.
Scared Monkeys has had some fun in the past with our favorite GWB first daughter, Jenna … our first caption contest.

Sen Rand Paul (R-KY): "I Don't Promote Marijuana … Last Two Presidents [Obama/GWB] Could Have Been Jailed For Their Drug Use" … Don't Forget Bill Clinton
This morning on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) weighed in on recreational drug use in today's society and the penalties for being convicted. Paul stated that he did not promote the use of drugs, even marijuana; however, he also thought that the penalties were far too severe. Paul is not for the legalization of drugs, but also not to incarcerate individuals for long period of times for non-violent crimes. He does not want to put people in jail and ruin their lives. Rand Paul went on to say that the last two presidents [Obama, GWB]could have been jailed for their drug use. Wallace was quick to jump in and correct the Kentucky Senator by saying, probably the last three presidents, although Bill Clinton claims he did not inhale (VIDEO).
Sen. Rand Paul said Sunday that President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush could have "conceivably been put in jail" for their drug use, ruining their lives and impacting their getting elected to office.
"Look, the last two presidents could have conceivably been put in jail for their drug use and I really think – look what would've happened, it would've ruined their lives. They got lucky. But a lot of poor kids, particularly in the inner city, don't get lucky and they don't have good attorneys and they go to jail for some of these things and I think it's a big mistake," the Kentucky Republican said on Fox's "Fox News Sunday."
"Actually, I think it would be the last three presidents, but who's counting?" host Chris Wallace said with a laugh, referring to former President Bill Clinton.

Legendary Journalist Bob Woodward Calls Out Obama For Sequestration … "That's a kind of madness that I haven't seen in a long time" (Video)
File this one under the category when someone in the main stream media actually does their job and holds a president accountable no matter what his party affiliation.
Legendary journalist Bob Woodward of "Watergate" fame is calling out President Barack Obama as the deadline for sequestration nears. As the Obama White House uses scare tactics instead of leadership telling Americans that all things will cease to exist, families will suffer, children will go hungry and the sun will not come up tomorrow … Bob Woodward calls out Obama and likens his actions to madness. Woodward blasted President Obama for playing politics with sequestration and putting the United States at national security rick.
It's one think for Republicans or conservative media to say that Obama is showing a failure to lead, but then one of the journalistic lions like Bob Woodward says it … everyone takes notice and listens.
Transcript from Real Clear Politics:
Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying 'Oh, by the way, I can't do this because of some budget document?' Or George W. Bush saying, 'You know, I'm not going to invade Iraq because I can't get the aircraft carriers I need' or even Bill Clinton saying, 'You know, I'm not going to attack Saddam Hussein's intelligence headquarters,' as he did when Clinton was president because of some budget document? Under the Constitution, the president is commander-in-chief and employs the force. And so we now have the president going out because of this piece of paper and this agreement, I can't do what I need to do to protect the country. That's a kind of madness that I haven't seen in a long time.
It certainly is madness. Yes, just imagine how the liberal MSM would be reporting this story if Reagan or either of the Bush presidents has done the same and put party politics over country?
This is going to leave a mark against Obama. Bob Woodward is a respected journalist and it is going to be fool hearty for Obama and his minion to tarnish Woodward's image. Although they will certainly try.
President Barack Obama Averaged 49.1% Job Approval During First Term in Office, Among the Lowest of Post World War II Presidents
Second Term Mandate … Hardly.
According to Gallup, President Barack Hussein Obama's job approval during his first term in office was among the lowest of ant of the post-World War II presidents. His average of 49.1% during his first term and 48.1% during his final year of his first term is only above Jimmy Carter and George H.G. Bush. However, these two individuals lost reelection. With a consistent high unemployment rate, record number of individuals on food stamps, near record low job participation and record debt, it makes one scratch their heads how GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney did not defeat Obama.
One really has to wonder just how low Barack Obama's job approval ratings would be if he did not have the liberal MSM carrying his water and opening supporting and campaigning for him. How would the American people feel about Barack Obama if they did not have a lying and complicit propagandist media running cover for him? It explains how such an epic failure of a president was reelected. Which begs the questions, had it not been for the corrupt liberal media complex, would a lazy and apathetic America still voted him in for a second term or would they still have bought into Obama's divisiveness and class warfare?
President Barack Obama averaged 49.1% job approval during his first term in office, among the lowest for post-World War II presidents. Only Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford had lower job approval averages. Obama's first-term average is most similar to Bill Clinton's. Lyndon Johnson, John Kennedy, and Dwight Eisenhower were the most popular first-term presidents.
Obama's first-term approval average, like those of most presidents with lower first-term averages, was likely dragged down by a sluggish economy. Clinton and Reagan saw higher second-term approval as the economy improved. Obama's approval rating has also shown improvement, with a 48.1% average in his fourth year in office after a 44.4% average in his third year.
Democrat Pat Caddell: "There Is a Purposeful Conscious Effort to Suppress News That Might Hurt Obama" (Video)
From liberal media bias … to the Press now actively engaged in determining an election … "Purposeful Conscious Effort to Suppress News That Might Hurt Obama"
During an interview on The O'Reilly Factor, Democratic pollster Pat Caddell told Bill O'Reilly tonight that there is a purposeful conscious effort to suppress news that might hurt Obama. In a speech seen n the below VIDEO, Caddell stated that if any other President of either party, whether it was Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George Bush, Ronald Regan, or George H.W. Bush had a terrorist incident and got on a plane and flew off to a fund raiser in Las Vegas, they would have been crucified by the press. However, not for Barack Obama, nothing was said at all, and nothing will be said.
"Purposeful Conscious Effort to Suppress News That Might Hurt Obama"
VIDEO Hat Tip: The Gateway Pundit
"Whether its organized or a straight conspiracy and we have gone down a slippery slope here. Look Bill, we've had liberal bias or bias in the press for a long time. And it's gotten worse starting in 2008. But now we've got a press that is actively engaged in a reelection – putting out a narrative that Romney is a loser, they're running polls… But Romney's not my issue here. More importantly they not only decided to support Obama. On this issue the last two weeks what we see is a press that has decided that it will not tell the American people the truth."
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at the RNC, Tells Barack Obama Its Time to Stop Blaming GWB for You Failed Economic Policies
Jeb Bush tells Obama to own up to his failed policies and take responsibility for his actions.
During Jeb Bush's speech tonight at the Republican National Convention, Jeb paused a moment to make a personal comment … Jeb Bush scolded Barack Obama and told him to get over it and take some responsibility for his failed economic policies. He said, "… and my brother [GWB], well I love my bother. He is a man of integiry, courage and honor. And during incredibly challenging times, he kept us safe. So Mr. President it is time to stop blaming your predecessor for your failed economic policies. You were dealt a tough hand, but your policies have not worked. In the 4th year of your presidency, a real leader would accept responsibility for his actions and you have not done that."
Jeb Bush then went on to talk about education in America and the quality of opportunity does not exist for all children.

Former Democrat Sec of State Madeline Albright Says She Intends To Blame Bush Forever for the Economy
Madeline Albright, yet another unhinged Leftist, Democrat that intends to blame George W. Bush forever for the economy. Forever? Really Madame Secretary?
Many would have expected more from the former Democrat Secretary of State under Bill Clinton. I guess not. It would seem that Albright is nothing more than a dishonest liberal who blames GWB for all the evils of the economy. Of course Barack Obama's policies, agenda and out of control spending that has driven the national debt to nearly 16,000,000,000,000.
In an appearance before a Democratic audience captured by Revealing Politics, President Bill Clinton's Secretary of State, Madeline Albright, recalled the story of her recent encounter with a protester while campaigning for President Barack Obama. She was asked by an agitated audience member how long she intended to blame President George W. Bush's policies for the recession and the sluggish economic recovery. Albright says that she proudly replied, "forever."
EXIT QUESTION: If God forbid Obama win in 2012, will be blame the inherited bad 2012 economy on himself?

Election day has come and gone and so has Veterans Day…so let's talk fishin'! Here is this week's fishing report for both fresh and saltwater:
Freshwater Report:
1) Castaic Lake…Last week 900 pounds of rainbow trout were stocked here. Lots of micro-sized stripers are biting in about 100 feet of water; when they're that size, if you can…release them and catch them when they get bigger. Some catfish and bass biting near the Buoy Line in early morning hours.
2) Pyramid Lake…Striper fishing picked up for lots of 2 pounders this past week. The early morning or late afternoon hours are the time to be casting for black bass, smallmouth and largemouth bass. Slow for catfish.
3) Lake Piru…Slow. The drop in water level has really hurt the bite for all species here. Look for weeds, structure of any kind, drop-offs, etc. and you might catch some fish.
4) Lake Cachuma….Find the schools of shad and you'll likely find largemouth bass chasing and devouring them! Some trout were caught, but not like last week. The water level is low and the crappie are hiding under structure such as tree branches.
Saltwater Report:
Landings from Long Beach to Marina Del Rey:
On Monday, the "Victory" from Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach brought back an amazing number of sheephead (48), along with 22 whitefish, 171 rockfish, plus a few sculpin and perch; there were 21 anglers on its 3/4 day run. On Sunday, that same boat connected with 39 sheephead! Redondo and Marina Del Rey boats are nabbing lots of rockfish along with sculpin, sheephead and a few lingcod.
Oxnard/Ventura Landings:
If you want lingcod, the Oxnard/Ventura boats are your best bet. For example, on Monday, the "Aloha Spirit" with 22 anglers nabbed 44 lings (limits) plus 214 rockfish, 21 whitefish, 6 cabezon and 2 sheephead. Meanwhile, the "Mirage" returned Monday night from its overnight run, catching 40 lingcod, 200 rockfish, and 13 whitefish. The "Island Spirit" from Ventura Sportfishing came back with 33 lingcod, and 207 rockfish for 28 anglers.
…and that concludes this week's fish report; Halibut Hal signing off for KHTS AM-1220, your Hometown Station.

7 Tips for a Social Entrepreneur
Run Your Nonprofit Like a For-Profit
SightLife now has 96 employees and $14 million in annual revenue. The non-profit eye bank based in Seattle supplies 5,000 corneas a year. Or they do now, thanks in large part to CEO Monty Montoya. When Montoya arrived in 1997, SightLife was called the Lions Eye Bank, and it was struggling. "We realized that if we didn't start operating like a business, we were going to go out of business," Montoya says. He set out to increase efficiency, hired trained technicians, and ditched the old name. He brought former Starbucks executive Tim Schottman on board. When SightLife's efficiency landed them with more corneas than they could find recipients, Montoya expanded the country's reach to the developing world.

'What do you mean no record, I called up over an hour ago and you said you had 3 double rooms and a family!'
Julia was panicking at a very large, very annoyed looking receptionist.
'Well yes those rooms do appear to be free... But I'm afraid there is a fee for booking so late.'
Lauren diddnt like the look of this place, it was run down and dirty and they kept finding was to drive the price up, plus the receptionist scared her with all of the tattoos, she clutched Joes hand tighter and tried to hide behind him. 'Okay please were desperate!'
The reseptionist smirked
'Oh and you have to leave by 7 tomorrow or you'll be charged for day rental of the rooms. Have a nice night!"
She said tossing Julia some keys.
'Ok so who's rooming with who?'
The girls opted to take the family room and the boys would take the doubles across the hall. The girls walked into there room disgusted at what they found. Three dirty beds and a stained couch, one double and two singles that looked hardly big enough for Lauren.
'Remind me to kill Dylan tomorrow'
shuddered Meredith who still had Brian's jacket clutched around her shoulders and had hardly dried off during the drive. When they saw the place they had all stuffed there things into Lauren's spare bag that she said was for 'shopping purposes' and grabbed blankets and towels to so that they didn't have to touch the disgusting brown hotel beds. They all changed into ther pjamas and Mere pulled out her phone to call the boys.
Brian heard the first few notes of the coolest girl blare out of his iphone from across the room but couldn't get there before Meredith's voice started to slip from the speaker.
'Dude still?'
said Joey. Brian didn't answer he put the phone to his ear not bothering to check the caller i.d., assuming that it'd be somebody from one of the other rooms.
'Mere! How's your room?'
Meredith laughed down the phone
'About as good as yours from that tone! The beds look too small for Lauren. Denise and Jaime have to share a double bed, Julia and Lo are on the kids beds because there the smallest and I'm on the couch.'
Brian sighed before replying
"well that makes ours sound amazing. At least we both have beds that we can fit in" There was a bang from next door
"Shit Mere I'm gonna have to go I think someone broke something"
Meredith gave an embarrassed laugh "Um yeh that was me I smashed a bottle. Oopsy! I gotta go clean it up but I'll see you in the morning. Night!"
Brian smiled, of course it was Meredith, her clumsiness was adorable. Although he found everything about her amazing her wild hair, the way she could make him laugh no matter what, and those deep brown eyes like melted chocolate that he found it so easy to slip into and get lost. Those eyes that seemed to sparkle with there own light, the light of a thousand stars. Those eyes that would never look at him the way he looked at her. She was the most beautiful girl in the world and he was madly, desperately in love with her. She was his Katniss, his Eve, his Elizabeth his Juliet, but he wasn't her Peeta, her Michael, her Darcy or her Romeo. She deserved someone better than him.
Oopsy! What was she five! OMDWG no wonder he liked Lauren. Why would anyone like her when Lo was in the room. But she was with Joe now, maybe she finally had a chance with the guy of her dreams. No! Of cause she diddnt have a chance! He was perfect, in every sense of the word. Whenever she talked to him she got butterfly's in the pit of her stomach and she couldn't think so she just ended up making stupid jokes. Why would someone like him ever want somebody like her. She was entirely ordinary, not very funny, of normal intelligence, not a great singer or actress, and no talent in art or music. She certainly couldn't be considered really pretty unruly brown hair and muddy brown eyes, that just now were welling up. 'She ran to the grubby little bathroom and locked herself in. She sat down on a towel the floor and cried.

Whats a good set for mythical three horn?
- Back To:
- Board List
- Topic List
- Topic Archived
Specifically for the purpose of fighting white or maybe crimson fatalis. I would think I'd want normal up and bomber, but I don't know. Does bomber affect clust/crag?
Pokemon black 2 FC 3311 2401 2455
Full Hermitaur Z is what I use, to avoid getting OHKO'd
Nope, it doesn't.
I used a set with recoil reduction and reload speed. I think it was reload speed+3 and recoil reduction +1.
Can't remember which pieces I used though.
I check many, many plausible combinations, with any recoil reduction/reloading speed/innate reload speed/clip size combinations, and can't find anything better than what maze introduced in his Bowgun Compendium...
You'll need the final training school bowgun for this one...
As for armor set, you can gem full Herm Z with 5 bombardier jewels, 4 scatterbonus jewels, and 1 high speed jewel (to neutralize reloading speed-1) for:
Clust all level add
Recoil reduction+1
Since this gun has natural reloading speed of fast (2 levels faster than Mythical Three Horn, and it takes FOREVER to load clust shots), and you won't be suffer from worst recoil with silencer equipped. Also, with the clust add skill, you will have 3 clust shots per clip, meaning you can load everything in your pocket in a single clip. Not to mention it has decent raw, very reasonable sized normal s clips, etc...
And I don't recommend you to use RF clust on Fatty, because they either move eccentrically, roar randomly, or whatever reason to make it hard to place both shots to it right, not to mention the very small capacity of level clust S (you will have only 13 maximum). Level 2 clust should be your focus on any anti-Fatty hunts (53 shots in total).
As for clust level 3, just bring those 3... Save your spots for your bombs instead (combo books 1-5, alchemy book, LBB, LBB+, gunpowders, ivies, med monster bones... these already occupy 11 spots). And don't forget, get felyne gunpowder activated so every single LBB will turn into LBB+ and you won't need scatterfish.

wtf are you trying to do?
Hit the head with clust? If you're having trouble RF clusting a Fatalis you should just get the hell out of here.
Alrighty. Thanks guys,
Looks like herm z is gonna work. Thanks for the input.

I said that because TC asked specifically for Mystical Three Horn, which has only 2 ammo per clip of clust shots (of all level) and RF of level 1 clust shots X_X
Given Island of the Gods (or anything in the same series) and the gun I mentioned both can have 3 shots per clip, why TC asked for the Kirin LBG in the very first place? I already thought through that >.<
I can't believe I expected a serious answer.

You "expected" it? Weird of you -.-
Probably can't expect one for the idiot who asked someone to beat Yama for his pturd data (failed doing research?? o_O But I doubt he even got the game by legal means...)... But the question in this topic is very valid...
And for TC, forget about the Kirin LBG (I can't even think of what it is truly good for unless you don't have those top tier for specific jobs), just pick something else.
Mog, I'm looking at the warriors bowgun, the rank 10 training school lbg. But it's only got level 1 clust/crag. Did you mean a different one, or is there a training hbg I didn't unlock?

Backup solution advice
We are going to setup a hosting environment at our site.
Customers will be able to choose which sollution the would like.
I am new in the hosting scenario, for backup normal servers we use BE with various options.
Below i speciefied the different sollutions/options for customers.
Probably combination of fysical and virtual ( hyper-V)servers
In this environment there will be a exchange cluster and several windows terminalservers and several application servers.
San exitst of a HP storageworks diskenclosure and a 4048 tapelibrary.
Is it possible to explain to me what software i need to perform backups, and in case of email restore how it works in a SAN to restore a single mail or mailbox from a user ?
Thanks in advance
Jacco Dominicus

Hi Jacco,
Well, I would suggest looking into SAN SSO. This allows you to share the tape library amongst many servers, and utilise the speed of your SAN, rather than your LAN.
I have used this, and it really works like a charm! It is a licensable application, so just be aware of that. Also remember that for the first drive in your library, BEWS's internal FREE drive license covers this, but for additional drives you need additional licensing.
Restoring Exchange would be done to your SAN first, and then to the Exchange IS. I always duplicate to disk first, as I have suffered a lot of bother when trying to restore directly from tape.
I wrote an article on how to do that here:
For the software, you can currently use Backup Exec 12.5 (SP3 is the latest service pack), and then upgrade down the line to BEWS 2010 (released next month 1st February 2010). If you have Exchange 2010 in your environment, I would wait the next couple of days till BEWS 2010 is out. This gives newer features like data deduplication, and support for Exchange 2010 and newer OSs amongst others. You will need licenses for Exchange, SQL, and a license to backup entire VMs if you go that route.
Hope this helps, shout if you need more information...
Alternative ways to access Backup Exec Technical Support:
Hello Craig,
Thanks for your reply.
If i understand corectly, you first do a backup to disk on de SAN storage.
Are your stores on de servers fysical disks or olso on de SAN ?
For the requered software/hardware.
To backup th ecomplete environments
1 server SAN SSO
hosting domain 1 backup exec server and several agents
internal domain, 1 backup exec server and several agents
customer network , also 1 backup exec server and several agents
Am i correct ?
Does the SAN SSO server require authentication or is that not relevant
thanks in advance
jacco Dominicus
Hi Jacco,
To use SAN SSO, you need a full installation of BEWS on every server you want to back up via the SAN. So, if you had a file server with 600GB of data, an Exchange server with 500GB of data, and an SQL server with 800GB of data, it would be beneficial to back those up via SAN SSO, rather than a LAN. 4Gbps is going to be far faster than 1GB on a LAN. That is the only downside. The MAJOR benefit is the speed you get when using it, and sharing 1 library amongst many servers.
The authentication you would use is as per the normal authentication in BEWS. However, here is where it might get tricky: have 3 different domains with no trusts. THat is something I haven't played around with, but I do know you can back up a server in another domain by adding in that particular domain's service account for Backup Exec.
To do your backups, you can do them to disk, or to tape...if you can do it to tape, and do it quickly, then I would use that route, especially with SAN SSO. However, if you chose not to license that option, and had a lot of data to back up, then backing up to disk is going to be a bit quicker. From there you could create a job to duplicate to tape during the day with no impact on production systems.
Not quite sure what you mean about the stores on the servers...? Can you clear that up for me?
Your setup would be 1 of 2 ways:
SAN SSO licensed and used!
hosting domain 1 backup exec server (with SAN SSO acting as primary); all other servers needing SAN SSO with full installations of Backup Exec and the necessary license; all other remote servers needing RAWS only.
internal domain, As above
customer network , As above
Backing up via the LAN:
hosting domain 1 backup exec server and several agents (load the necessary licenses like SQL/Exchange etc)
internal domain, As above!
customer network , As above!
Alternative ways to access Backup Exec Technical Support:
Hello Graig,
With stores on servers, i mean the exchange information stores.
The location of the database files, are the on the local disk of the exchange server(s) or are they stored on connected SAN storage ?
Thanks for explanign the situation for me, i have asked the same question to our dealer, they gave me this link
But i did'nt quite understand it because this is completely new for our company, thats why i asked the same on this forum.
When i read your comment and sollution advice, i think that we should go for the SAN SSO sollution.
Jacco Dominicus
Don't forget SAN SSO is a licensed option, and only really valid when you have a SAN-attached library. If you can do it, it is worth it =)

We are located right by some of the best surfing beaches in Puerto Rico! Ocean Terrace is a newly built luxury condo building with great amenities. You have the best bars, restaurants, beaches, beach activities, yoga, and live music just within steps! You do not have to drive anywhere else to experience a wonderful vacation. This place is a tourist's dream destination!
The beaches of the 'Puntas' section of Rincon are where you'll find a traditional 'beach community' with a heavy surfing influence and an informal mix of bars, restaurants, water sports and beach-side activities. The winter is our peak-season for good surf. Para-sailing and wind surfing add to the fun all year! You'll find lots of activity on the beach and can probably join the beach volleyball that is almost always in action.
The Ocean Terrace property is gated and has private access. Our penthouse suite is located on the 3rd floor; far enough removed from the action below, so that you may enjoy a quiet, relaxing time. The 1200 sq. ft. private roof-top terrace is great for lounging while enjoying the ocean views or stargazing into the night. It also has outdoor dining, lounge area, kitchenette, bathroom, and a gas BBQ grill. The building's swimming pool provides a great spot to cool off and relax between trips to the beach.
The suite consists of 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. The master bedroom has a private bathroom and a queen size bed. The other 2 bedrooms each have a full size bed and share a bathroom. There is a fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout. The décor is elegant, yet simple and comfortable. All of the art work was made by local artists.
Upon arrival you will find information on things to do and places of interest. Our property manager, Talia, is available to answer any questions and help guide you throughout your stay.
We are certain that Ocean Terrace will become one of your favorite vacation destinations!
We also have HomeAway listings #267638 and #3634433.
Eric and Frances are a couple who fell in love with Rincon; its people, community, and of course, its warm weather and beautiful beaches. Frances is from Puerto Rico and Eric from New York. They began making regular trips to Rincon in 2007 and soon after decided to invest in a vacation property. They now split their time between both locations.
Eric and Frances immediately became actively involved with various local pet rescue organizations, helping with the Puerto Rico stray animal population, providing health care, and fostering stray dogs and cats to find them loving homes. They adopted a stray dog, Max, who is now a loving member of their family and has also become the inspiration for their newest venture, BD Café in Rincon, where every Wednesday 5% of proceeds are donated to local pet rescue organizations. Guests at Casa de Rincon also enjoy at 10% discount at BD Café.
Talia is the property manager and has been working with Eric and Frances from the beginning. She is a Rincon local and will be able to guide you towards the best places of interest and things to do and see in the area. Talia is the direct contact for this property and will also be available upon your arrival for any questions, advice, and information about Rincon.
Together we work as a team to ensure our guests have the best possible experience during their stay. We take great pride in providing clean, comfortable, and affordable accommodations with excellent amenities and beachside locations.
We look forward to welcoming you to Rincon!
Eric and Frances /Owners
Talia /Property Manager
Talia purchased this condo in 2011
We were in Rincon for a family wedding. This condo was centrally located & very comfortable for 5 adults. The 2nd bathroom is located in the hall providing more privacy for the two bedrooms having to share. The only drawback for us was the shower function. Water flow & temp were hard to regulate. It would not prevent us from using this property again.
We would recommend this to our friends.
Penthouse was everything we could ask for. Stayed a week for a surf trip with some friends. Sandy Beach, Domes, Tres Palms, and Indicators are all within a 10 minute drive. The condo had everything we needed including parking, beds were comfortable, laundry was useful, kitchen was accommodating. The rooftop was amazing, beautiful views and way more space than we could ever use. If the rooftop had a canopy bed I think I would have slept outside every night. The pool was very relaxing, the neighbors were very friendly. The beach is a minute walk away and most of the bars/restaurants are within sight. 5 Stars
We frequently stay in Rincon, we usually stay in nice properties. This one top it! My wife and kids loved it! We will be scheduling our next stay here if it's available. All accommodations were in Excellent condition, the top floor invited a great family conversation that lasted hours. The BBQ on top works and it's easy to clean up.
We found the accommodations extremely spacious and lavishly decorated without being expensive, we all enjoyed the private pool and grilling on the patio rooftop with a marvelous view of the beach. The amenities ( washer and dryer) made it convenient to us. You do need a car to get around.
The locals were very nice and helpful. We will return at a future date. We highly recommend it to anyone who has a desire to visit the Island.
I also recommend Tamboo Restaurant/Bar I Loved the staff there they were awesome.
We were there for 8 days. We found the accommodations extremely spacious and lavishly decorated without exactly being expensive, we enjoyed the private pool and the grilling on the patio rooftop with a marvelous view of beach and area.

A loving and laughter-filled trip back to a lost American time when the newspaper business was the happiest game in town.
In a warm, affectionate true-life tale, New York Times bestselling author Bob Greene (When We Get to Surf City, Duty, Once Upon a Town) travels back to a place where—when little more than a boy—he had the grand good luck to find himself surrounded by a brotherhood and sisterhood of wayward misfits who, on the mezzanine of a Midwestern building, put out a daily newspaper that didn't even know it had already started to die.
"In some American cities," Greene writes, "famous journalists at mighty and world-renowned papers changed the course of history with their reporting." But at the Columbus Citizen-Journal, there was a willful rejection of grandeur—these were overworked reporters and snazzy sportswriters, nerve-frazzled editors and insult-spewing photographers, who found pure joy in the fact that, each morning, they awakened to realize: "I get to go down to the paper again."
At least that is how it seemed in the eyes of the novice copyboy who saw romance in every grungy pastepot, a symphony in the song of every creaking typewriter. With current-day developments in the American newspaper industry so grim and dreary, Late Edition is a Valentine to an era that was gleefully cocky and seemingly free from care, a wonderful story as bracing and welcome as the sound of a rolled-up paper thumping onto the front stoop just after dawn.
"Bob Greene is a virtuoso of the things that bring journalism alive."—Tom Wolfe
Greene, a veteran Chicago columnist and author (When We Get to Surf City), offers a glowing tribute to the glory days of America's newspapers and the simpler society they so aptly reflected. Currently a CNN contributor, he remembers his days as a copyboy and other apprentice positions at the Columbus Citizen-Journal and the Columbus Dispatch, two rival newspapers in Ohio's capital city, with the noisy reporters, prying editors, artful pressmen and artisans in the composing room. Greene laments the passing of a proud tradition from the peak year of 1984 with 63.3 million circulation sliding to 50.7 million per day, noting its generational gap of 63.7% of daily readers being 55 years or older contrasted with 33% of readers ages 25-37. Refreshing, respectful and comical, Greene's press-time recollections are meant to be read slowly and savored as the current chaotic computerized information business replaces newsprint, banner headlines and night owl editions.

In a touching homage to the daily newspaper, Greene weaves a wistful tapestry of "the sights, sounds, and smells" of his first job working at his hometown newspaper, the Columbus Citizen-Journal, from 1964 to 1968. He recalls the wonder of his first day as a copy boy and the subsequent years spent writing for the paper's sports and city desks. In his youth, argues Greene, when TV was just beginning to take hold, American families cherished their local newspapers as "the daily scrapbook of a city's life." People subscribed to the morning paper produced by one news organization and the evening edition of another in order to keep abreast of local business, school, civic, and sporting events. Greene also recollects when his "first love," the Citizen-Journal, printed its last edition in 1985, a time when cities could no longer sustain two competing newspapers. This nostalgic look at the importance of newspaper reporting in American life is valuable reading for anyone concerned about the possibility of having no newspapers to turn to for their local news.
—Donna Marie Smith
I hadn't been expecting to see the place.
We were rolling through the country in a vehicle that was something out of an old-time science-fiction writer's most vivid futuristic dreams.
This was during the autumn in which Barack Obama was campaigning for president—the campaign which would culminate, that November, with his history-changing victory.
"We'll be at the hotel in a few minutes," Dale Fountain called back to me.
He was the driver of this vehicle—it was called the CNN Election Express, and from the outside it looked like a massive bus. Inside, though, it was a live television studio on wheels—control consoles, editing suite, satellite-uplink hardware, ten high-definition monitors. From the bus, even as it was speeding down a highway, we could transmit pictures and sound that would instantly be seen on television screens around the world. I was writing columns about the presidential campaign every day for CNN's political site on the Internet; we could stop in a town, report on a speech or a rally, interview some potential voters, snap their photographs . . .
And then, even as the bus was on its way, I could write the column, send it and the pictures skyward, and within minutes, before we had reached the next stop, it would be available for reading by an audience in every corner of the globe.
We had been in many places during the course of the long campaign—in the days just before arriving in this town, we had reported from Washington, D.C., from Maryland, from Pennsylvania, from West Virginia, from Mississippi, from Arkansas, from Kentucky. In a new-media age, the bus was an electronic marvel—it provided an almost incomprehensibly advanced digital delivery system for every kind of storytelling imaginable.
So I was writing away in the middle section of the bus—I was a sixty-one-year-old man enthralled by all the ways this three-million-dollar vehicle suddenly enabled a person to communicate his reporting to viewers and readers in the blink of an eye—and I looked up to see that the town into which we were heading was the capital city of Ohio. Columbus.
I stopped typing, and looked out the window.
On a downtown street—the address was 34 South Third Street—there was an old, stone-fronted building.
I had been there before, many times.
There once had been a certain room on the mezzanine.
Inside the bus, transmission-equipment lights blinked silently on and off.
I looked toward the building and tried to recall a sound from long ago.

Fred Ehrsam, Jeremy Allaire. and John Johnson, talk about regulating Bitcoin in a global economy.
Fred Ehrsam, co-founder Coinbase, Jeremy Allaire, founder Circle Internet Financial, John Johnson, executive vice-chairman, Overstock.com, swear and oath at the beginning of their panel. Michael del Castillo
The UpTake: The superintendent of New York's Financial Services Department today asked three leading bitcoin entrepreneurs what the Bitcoin economy will look like "one year from now."
The future of Bitcoin is very much up for grabs in the United States. As of now, each individual state has the responsibility to regulate encrypted currency on its own. With New York's encrypted currency hearings today seen as an indicator for the way the rest of the nation will go, three influential Bitcoin entrepreneurs swore an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, before they gave their best guesses as to what the future will hold.
"I personally know many entrepreneurs who are looking to create futures options for Bitcoin," said Fred Ehrsam, co-founder of the San Francisco-based bitcoin wallet Coinbase, and ex-securities trader at Goldman Sachs. In addition to trading on the upcoming price of commodities using Bitcoin, Ehrsam let slip a hint that more large ecommerce companies like Overstock.com, which recently started accepting bitcoin using Coinbase. "As we are fortunate enough to know, there are many others of similar stature in the pipeline," he said.
Jeremy Allaire, founder and CEO of Circle Internet Financial agreed with Ehrsam, but took it up a notch. "We would see both great many more online retail stores but also a number on location," he said. "The number of new startups focusing on both business needs and consumer needs is startling."
The third speaker on the panel, called, Virtual Currency Commerce and Consumer Protections, was John Johnson, the executive vice-chairman of Overstock.com who said his company has conducted 3,000 transactions worth over $600,000 since first accepting the currency less than a month ago.
As of now Coinbase lets Overstock.com accept Bitcoin without ever actually "touching" the currency, because they convert the transaction to dollars and pay that amount immediately. But in the future Johnston said he hopes that's not necessary.
"We hope that some of our suppliers will be accepting bitcoin…which would allow us to hold and spend instead of convert immediately," he said.
Today was the last of a two-day long hearing, led by Benjamin M. Lawsky, Superintendent of New York's Financial Services, designed to help regulators find a reasonable way to protect consumers without stifling innovation.
A common theme throughout the proceeding was that governments should regulate "the edges" of the industry, meaning organizations that convert currency, or deal partially in encrypted currency and partially in some other industry, while leaving the core of the technology, around which an increasing number of startups are building services, mostly untouched.
Michael del Castillo is the technology and innovation reporter at Upstart Business Journal, a member of American City Business Journals.

Butternut, Apple Soup
Serves 6
- 1, 1 1/2 lb. butternut squash
- 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, seeded and roughly chopped
- 1 carton vegetable stock (I like Pacific's Organic Low Sodium)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup celery, chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp. ground coriander
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the butternut squash in half and remove seeds. *see note below.
- Put the squash halves in a large baking pan filled with a small amount of water and lightly sprayed with oil. Bake for about 45 minutes until they are tender when poked with a fork. Cool and remove flesh.
- In the meantime, water sauté the chopped onion and celery for a few minutes.
- Add the apples, the butternut squash, and the rest of the ingredients.
- Cook for about 45 minutes until the apples are soft and the vegetable flavors have blended. Add more water if the soup is too thick.
- Cool slightly before putting half of the soup into the container of a blender. Cover with a paper towel to prevent splatters and carefully blend on slow speed.
- Turn up the blender to finish off the soup to a creamy smoothness.
- Serve in bowls with the roasted seeds, if desired.
- *If you're so inclined, you can roast the seeds with the squash on a baking sheet in the oven for about 15 minutes until they are crisp. Clean the seeds under running water in a colander. Place on an oil-sprayed cookie sheet and add a little salt. Check on them until they are your desired doneness.

While Orange County homes are selling at prices that have yet to exceed their pre-bubble-bursting peaks by most measurements, the relative cost of a local home has never been higher – according to one of my favorite affordability benchmarks.
I've long tracked the relationship of Orange County home pricing to nationwide values as my "Orange Premium." It measures, in essence, how much extra we pay to live in relative paradise.
My math is simple: Compare the National Association of Realtors' median selling price of single-family residences in Orange County and the U.S. In the first quarter, the local median price tag was $669,800, up 12 percent in a year, vs. $191,600 for the nation, up 9 percent in a year.
My trusty spreadsheet tells me that this "Orange Premium" was at 3.50 for the start of 2014. That is, you could get one Orange County home for 31/2 homes at the national median price.
(Curious note: At this moment, the national price happens to be the same cost as a Las Vegas single-family residence – if you need a better mental image of the comparable properties.)
How high is this premium? The first quarter's "Orange Premium" topped last year's cyclical peak of 3.4 U.S.-homes-to-one-here ratio in the first quarter, and the old record peak of 3.41 in 2004.
If so many folks speak of California economic challenges, why is this premium surging?
One key factor is Orange County's faster-than-elsewhere home-price recovery. Since the "Orange Premium" hit its most recent bottom – at 2.99 homes-to-one in 2012's fourth quarter – Orange County home prices are up 38 percent through 2014's first quarter. Nationally, price gains are just 18 percent over the same period.
That rebound left Orange County prices only 6 percent below the 2007 peak. National pricing is still 14 percent below its 2006 peak.
This price gap isn't just fodder for real estate pros or statistical junkies. High housing costs are a major challenge to the local economy – hurting our chances to attract and retain employees and employers, and concentrating the finances of Orange County residents on house payments and diverting it from the rest of the economy.
But the fat home-price premium is also the byproduct of the area's economic oomph. The region's long history of job growth has brought more house shoppers to Orange County. Coupled with laggardly homebuilding, which limits the supply of housing to buy, that pushed home prices skyward.
In the last three decades, Orange County job-growth pace has outpaced the nation by 30 percent – a 1.7 percent average annual growth rate vs. 1.3 percent. That's a noteworthy and long-running edge, especially in an area with limited raw land suitable for cheaper housing and where developers, as well as city leaders, seem to prefer building pricier homes to residences that mainstream shoppers could afford.
The local housing crunch isn't only found in my mathematics. Other, more complex measurements of housing affordability also show just how costly local real estate can be.
Take the Housing Opportunity Index from the National Association of Home Builders and Wells Fargo. This metric juggles local pricing patterns, income levels and mortgage rates.

Within five years, digital ads are expected to surpass traditional ads, as part of the continuing dominance of ad-driven online content, according to Accenture's 2008 Global Media Content Survey. Nearly two in three of those polled also predict that, in five years, the ad-driven model will set the business standard over subscriptions and so-called pay-per-play services, and two-thirds believe multiple platforms will be the biggest source of sales over that same timeframe.
