We stayed up until 1:00 a.m. last night writing and editing the stories we gathered throughout the day. None of us got much sleep. We had to wake up at 5:30 a.m. so we could have enough time to get ready to meet Major Mike Wunn from the Iowa National Guard for breakfast around 6:15 a.m. this morning.
The guard served up omelets, French toast, bacon, hash browns and plenty of fresh fruit. It was a little tough to eat anything that early in the morning, but the food tasted great. The National Guard serves up omelets three times a week and people always line up for them.
Next, we traveled along with a group of Iowa National Guard soldiers who were performing a training exercise designed to help troops understand the Afghan culture. One of the military's main goals is to eventually be able to withdraw troops from the country and allow the people there to live, work, think and act independently.
During the training exercise, soldiers learned about customs and faux pas. For example, people in Afghanistan consider it rude to shake hands with your left hand because they typically use that hand to wipe themselves after going to the bathroom. A few Afghan natives actually participated in the training exercise, but most of the other people involved with the scenarios were actors. The military wants Iowa National Guard soldiers to feel comfortable speaking with people and to avoid offending Afghan natives. Typically, when a soldier enters a home, it's customary to share a cup of tea. However, right now, it is Ramadan. As a result, no one drank tea. This is yet another example of the military is trying to make the training as authentic and realistic as possible.
Later, we traveled out to a firing range and watched soldiers fire their weapons. Everyone had to wear ear plugs because the bang/pop of the rifles was so loud. It was interesting to watch all of the safety procedures everyone has to follow when they're out on the range. There's a lot of checking, double-checking and triple-checking just to make sure no one gets hurt or accidentally pulls the trigger.
The heat is intense here at Camp Shelby. Every soldier has a backpack full of water at all times. They often call it a "camel back." The device has a tube connected to it that hangs down in front of soldiers' uniforms. Then, they can easily take a drink and stay hydrated all day long. Throughout the camp, there are large, black water tanks. Soldiers can fill-up their water supply at any time. Often times, during training exercises, the instructor will tell the troops they need to stop and take a water break. Today, it was once again in the mid 90s. When you add in all the humidity, it makes for a miserable situation that can become dangerous if you don't keep drinking water.
Later in the evening, we ate dinner. It was barbeque chicken, mashed potatoes, rice, beans and even some cake. So far, we've all been really impressed with the food out here.
As I mentioned earlier, the heat can be unbearable during the morning and afternoon. That's why plenty of troops do their "P.T" (physical training) at night. This evening, we tagged along with a group of soldiers who told me they love to run and do their exercises under moonlight, not sunlight! It's easy to understand why. Photographer Jim Slosiarek was able to capture some impressive pictures using the light of the moon.
For the rest of the evening, we'll stay up putting together all of the stories we've collected and gathered throughout the day. Then, we'll be up early again tomorrow to do it all over again.
We've all noticed today that the men and women here have strong ties with each other. There's a lot of camaraderie. You get the feeling that everyone here would do anything to help their fellow soldier. I think that's pretty impressive.

how long until we start discussing how the USA faked the moon landing, or 9/11?
Give him a week or so, he just joined earlier this month.
So, the man could speak, read, or write eloquently. That makes people elevate one to sainthood?
Oh right, I forgot about our current president. Guess that's all it takes after all.
Anyhoo, King was a notorious rabble rouser and carouser. This was well documented through his life. Yes, he had a message and optimized the views of a newer culture of the time, but honestly, not a saint in the least... yet people seem to worship at his feet. As time passes, people have less of a view of the real man, and more of this rosy fantasy about how they envision him to have been.
I remember doing a report on him long time ago... and reading the historical and first hand accounts were shocking to say the least. Not that it took away from the message, but it was almost a 'I am going to say one thing on the national level, while 'cashing' in and acting another in day-to-day life' attitude that dripped from everything he did.
Who said anything about elevating him to anything? Nothing in that quote you have there hinted to anything like that. No one argued that he wasnt human and made many mistakes. None of that changes the FACT that he played an integrate part of the civil rights movement, regardless of his misdoings. And what does Obama have anything to do with this topic?

It's particularly amusing given you flamed off at someone and told them not to underestimate you
Also, I doubt this will end up having any relevance to your current work given how you've proceeded, but it's worth a read: http://en.wikipedia....an_key_exchange
It's a very cool idea and should help you with basic crypto things in the future.
Another "for extra reading" recommendation is "The Code Book" by Simon Singh. Very good place to start if you want a crash course in Cryptography
Good luck with your project >.<

The video was indeed helpful, thanks for that.
- DH key exchange is still hard. It's no easier to crack the exchange process than to attempt to crack the the key used to encode a message directly. I've got a video that explains the process in easy-to-follow terms that I use to teach my non-math major friends. I'll find the link and edit it in.
- You can use DH key exchange to establish a secure channel. Once you've established the channel you can verify the party your connecting to using any of the standard methods.
The solution you proposed has the advantage of making it easy to to exchange public keys but ultimately doesn't address the problem of verification. Alice still needs a way to ensure that any given public key belongs to Bob. If you introduce a third party you just ask bob or alice to trust that third party instead of trusting eachother. Our goal isn't (and can't be) to ensure that a particular person belongs to a particular key. We can only hope to ensure that the person we talk to today is the same as the person we talked to yesterday.
We can do that by taking advantage of the way private and public keys are related. Alice generates a hash of a message she wants to send to bob. Alice encrypts the hash with her private key. Alice sends the message and the encrypted hash to bob. Bob recieves the message generates a hash of it. Bob decrypts Alice's encrypted hash using Alice's public key which he has. Bob compares the hash he's generated with the one alice sent him.
If they match then bob knows he's talking to whoever claimed to be alice yesterday.
If they don't match then he knows that eve is interfering in some way.
Bob has no way of knowing that the public key he has belongs to alice and there is no system of verification that can be done without involving trust somewhere in the chain. If we want to trust that we're talking to alice then we should let her pick the locations where we can find her public key. If we dictate one central location then it's possible eve can compromise that site. Alice would notice her public key doesn't match but would have no way to communicate that (in a way we could trust) to anybody (because eve controls the one trusted location for public keys). If alice can publish her key 50 places then it's much more difficult for eve. Eve would need to compromise all of those locations simultaneously. Breaking only one location means bob could spot eve's medling by comparing the key from 1 site to the others that alice has claimed to publish it. All keys should be the same.
EDIT a simple explanation of how Diffie-helman key exchange resists man in the middle attack.

The video was indeed helpful, thanks for that.
I'm not certain if it came across clearly, but it wasn't the key exchange itself I was questioning though, I can see with the video how that's secure, it's the fact that an attacker sat between bob and alice could intercept the exchange, so they never talk directly to each other, but instead without knowing are talking through the attacker.
I agree with everything you've said, I believe we are on the same wavelength.
With the bit underlined, knowing that you're talking to the same person as last time is meaningless if both conversations are going through an attacker, you're just confirming that you're going through the very same attacker and nothing has changed. Ensuring that you're talking directly to the other person and not through an attacker is the key problem, which is what you're talking about more of in the last quoted bit above. (Just wanted to make this a little clearer for others, not you, I can tell that you get this).

if the key problem is the middle man ... why encrypt at all ? isnt the point of encryption to screw over the middle man in the first place?
Posted 23 November 2012 - 03:46
Alice and Bob want to write letters to each other without Eve finding out. Alice and Bob live in an apartment that eve manages.Consider the different ways communication that could happen:

Of course it is, I'm not sure that I follow...
With both public-private key cryptography and DH, an exchange needs to take place of a piece of information crucial to establishing a secure channel of communication. In public-private key cryptography, this is the exchange of each other's public keys, in DH, this is a few numbers. In both cases, if this is observed only, it doesn't matter, the channel will be secure, however if an attacker is sitting between the two of them and intercepts this exchange then we do not have a secure channel, although it may look like it from the perspective of the two users. It's secure between Alice and the attacker, and between Bob and the attacker, but the attacker is silently decrypting, re-encrypting, and re-transmitting every message.
What you need is a way of ensuring that this data has really reached its destination, and not been intercepted and switched with the attacker's own. This is the tricky part. The proper way to do this is for the two users to communicate in another way, to verify that what they have received is correct (or to have agreed on a shared secret at some point in the past), which could be done for example by talking over the phone (if you'll recognise their voice and you're sure an attacker will not have the capability to intercept that and pretend to be them), or by meeting in person.
This is obviously a hassle, but with public private key cryptography can be minimised. For example, Alice and Bob meet in person to exchange keys, and they sign each others keys. John is friends with Alice and meets in person to exchange and sign keys. John then befriends Bob and wishes to communicate securely with him. Since Alice has already signed Bob's key, and John already trusts Alice's key, John does not have to actually meet with Bob. All that's needed to trust a new key is that at least one signature on it is from a key that you already trust. (Note that the work of exchanging keys and signing do not have to actually be done during the meetup, the keys could be exchanged beforehand, and just the key's shorter "fingerprint" compared. The signing of each others keys could be done later and uploaded to a public key server, so John here can get a copy of Bob's public key with Alice's signature already attached).
I suggested that this verification might be a problem for your system, it depends on people knowing each other in real life, or rather knowing at least one of the other users in real life, and establishing a network of trust through signing of each other's public keys. I outlined another option that you could take, which is to allow the web server to act as a "legitimate" middle man. Every user has a copy of the server's public key, and so can securely transport a copy of their own public key to it, and the server can then securely transfer it to the other user. It would not be possible for an attacker to compromise either key exchange. This simplifies things for the users who no longer need to meet up and verify something, however the server itself is a big weak point. The admin of the web server has the power to intercept communications, the government may force the admin to do so on their behalf, or an attacker could potentially break into the server and compromise everything. Whether you choose do this is your decision to make, I just wanted to cover it as part of my analysis. For users who do know each other in real life and are willing to do a proper exchange, this option would be much worse for them, but for users who do not know each other, even through a chain of other users, and therefore cannot validate each other's keys, as long as they are establishing connection to the right user on the system, public keys can be exchanged securely (with the exception of the server itself, which they would have to accept a compromise on).
Evn suggested that our goal should not be to try and know that a particular person owns a particular public key, but simply that once you've got a public key, that all future communications are coming from that same key, which is easy. This is indeed easy, however as I said in my reply, if the original communication was intercepted by an attacker, then by verifying that it's the same key, all you're doing is verifying that the same attacker(s) is still watching and no other attackers have joined in.
Evn also talked about the difficulties in obtaining the correct public key without a proper "meet up" type verification, which needs to involve some level of trust. Trusting a single service to store your public key would be foolish, because the service could just swap it out with one they've generated themselves. Evn suggested that storing it in multiple places, comparing copies from multiple places, and allowing the owner of the key to dictate where you go to get them from is much better, and I agree. However, this is by no means perfect. Firstly a powerful entity, e.g. the government, could easily have the capability to compromise this, by intercepting every transfer of a key on to and down from the internet. Additionally, without meeting in person, or talking over the phone, if instead Alice tells Bob through some digital communication which location(s) to visit to get the key, there's no guarantee that communication itself isn't compromised, or perhaps the user types in the correct url (or clicks the correct link), but it's invisibly redirected to a certificate owned by an attacker such as the government. There is absolutely no possible way to be sure that the exchange hasn't been compromised without meeting the other user in person, and checking with them.
Evn has now taken this even further to talk about the issue of knowing whether a person you don't already know really is know they say they are if you meet in real life to do the key exchange. This is certainly an interesting topic, and obviously only applies to people you don't already know. Someone you do already know might of course be lying to you about their identify also, but knowing that would be besides the point, you simply want to talk to that individual securely, no matter their real secret identity. With someone you don't know, let's say one of us wishes to talk securely to another, and need to do a secure key exchange, if we met in person, how would we know if the person we meet is the right person? In such a case all you can really do at the end of the day is make a judgement call, based on the real life likely hood of their being imposter, etc.
What we need to do here is take a look at the people who might be using the system and how they know each other.
Another interesting aspect to think about in all of this that's not been mentioned yet, is what if an attacker compromised the client application itself. I.e. you publish the software on a website, a user goes to download it, but an attacker has hacked the server and replaced it, or intercepts the download and serves a hacked copy instead. You'd need to take that into consideration also. To solve this, you'd need to sign the application, and provide your developer key to users. As a user, ensuring that the developer key that you have is correct has the same problems as already discussed.
- If all users of the system already know each other, i.e. you're just building this for use by your group of friends, then the best solution will be to establish a chain of trust by signing each other's keys until everyone has at least one signature from someone else in the group.
- If you're involving users who do not know each other in real life but do know each other through some other means, verification could be done through those other means. For example with us, we could verify each other's keys through Neowin. We would have to each assess the likely hood of our exchanges being compromised (e.g. by Neowin, by our ISP, by our government), and just accept that it's not a 100% guarantee, but probably not likely.
- If you're dealing with people who have never met each other, one of them has simply discovered the other through a chat service and initiated a chat session, then there's absolutely no way to guarantee security. However the method of having the web server as a "legitimate" middle man has advantages in some ways here.

i get your point now ... hmm interesting to consider .... static ips would help here ....maybe but obviously .....you would want to be able to initiate without any issues.... maybe a log in function ? like skype or msn ... would help but would allow less anomity ...but then you could just run through the TOR network
you will be happy to know i got my chat program working (mostly ...) i just have to finish a few things then i have a public and private key set up will post it once im done, just incase anyone wants to see/improve ... if i get time will be done within a day .... if not a couple of days (its very limited in what it does but the security is there ) .... my program shares keys on connection, fresh everytime... no reusing of keys
the simple way for a select group of friends is to simply ask them questions only they would know ... on the encrypted level once you confirm its them ... you know their key
Posted 23 November 2012 - 04:43
With a group of friends you already know, you'd meet them in person and verify each other's keys. If you're suggesting not doing this and instead establishing a connection to them, with what you hope to be a secure channel, and asking a question you hope that only they know the answer to in order to be sure you're connected to the right person... well I don;t know whether to go cry in despair, or come and smack you around the head with a heavy book I hope I misunderstood...

In the Bible, Aaron (אַהֲרֹן), or Aaron the Levite (אהרֹן הלוי), was the brother of Moses. He was the great-grandson of Levi (Ex. 6:16-20) and represented the priestly functions of his tribe, becoming the first High Priest of the Hebrews. While Moses was receiving his education at the Egyptian royal court and during his exile among the Midianites, Aaron and his sister remained with their kinsmen in the eastern border-land of Egypt (Goshen). He there gained a name for eloquent and persuasive speech; so that when the time came for the demand upon the Pharaoh to release Israel from captivity, Aaron became his brother's "nabi", or spokesman, to his own people (Ex. 4:16) and, after their unwillingness to hear, to the Pharaoh himself (Ex. 7:9) He is said to have flourished about 1200 BC (traditionally 1597 BC)
The meaning of the name "Aaron Semeniuk" is unclear. Possible meanings are:
At the command of Moses he stretched out his rod in order to bring on the first three plagues.Exodus 7:19, 8:1,12. In the infliction of the remaining plagues he appears to have acted merely as the attendant of Moses, whose outstretched rod drew the divine wrath upon the Pharaoh and his subjects.Exodus 9:23, 10:13,22. The potency of Aaron's rod had already been demonstrated by its victory over the rods of the Egyptian magicians, which it swallowed after all the rods alike had been turned into serpents. Exodus 7:9. During the journey in the wilderness, Aaron is not always prominent or active; and he sometimes appears guilty of rebellious or treasonable conduct. At the battle with Amalek, he is chosen with Hur to support the hand of Moses that held the "rod of God" Exodus 17:9. When the revelation was given to Moses at Mount Sinai, he headed the elders of Israel who accompanied Moses on the way to the summit. Joshua, however, was admitted with his leader to the very presence of the Lord, while Aaron and Hur remained below to look after the people Exodus 24:9-14. It was during the prolonged absence of Moses that Aaron yielded to the clamors of the people, and made a Golden Calf as a visible image of the divinity who had delivered them from Egypt Exodus 32:1-6 (It should be noted that in the account given of the same events, in the Qur'an, Aaron is not the idol-maker and upon Moses' return begged his pardon as he had felt mortally threatened by the Israelites Quran 7:142-152) At the intercession of Moses, Aaron was saved from the plague which smote the people Deuteronomy 9:20; Exodus 32:35, although it was to Aaron's tribe of Levi that the work of punitive vengeance was committed Exodus 32:26
At the time when the tribe of Levi was set apart for the priestly service, Aaron was anointed and consecrated to the priesthood, arrayed in the robes of his office, and instructed in its manifold duties Exodus 28 KJV, and Exodus 29 KJV.
On the very day of his consecration, his sons; Nada and Abidjan, were consumed by fire from the Lord for having offered incense in an unlawful manner Leviticus 10 KJV
Scholarly consensus is that in Aaron's High Priesthood the sacred writer intended to describe a model, the prototype, so to say, of the Jewish High Priest, "phod". God, on Mount Sinai instituting a worship, and also instituted an order of priests.
According to the patriarchal customs, the First Born son in every family used to perform the functions connected with God's worship, "phod". It might have been expected, consequently, that Rueben's family would be chosen by God for the ministry of the new altar. However, according to the biblical narrative it was Aaron who was the object of God's choice. To what jealousies this gave rise later, has been indicated above. The office of the Aaronites was at first merely to take care of the lamp that should ever burn before the veil of the tabernacle Exodus 27:21. A more formal calling soon followed (Exodus 28:1). Aaron and his sons, distinguished from the Common People by their sacred functions, were likewise to receive holy vestments suitable to their office.
Aaron offered the different sacrifices and performed the many ceremonies of the consecration of the new priests, according to the divine instructions (Exodus 29), and repeated these rites for seven days, during which Aaron and his sons were entirely separated from the rest of the people. When, on the eighth day, the High Priest had inaugurated his office of sacrifice by killing the animals, he blessed the people, very likely according to the prescriptions of Num., vi, 24-26, and, with Moses, entered into the tabernacle so as to take possession thereof. As they "came forth and blessed the people. And the glory of the Lord appeared to all the multitude: And behold a fire, coming forth from the Lord, devoured the holocaust, and the fat that was upon the altar: which when the multitude saw, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces" (Leviticus 9:23, 24). So was the institution of the Aaronic priesthood inaugurated and solemnly ratified by the Lord.
From the time of the sojourn at Mount Sinai, where he became the anointed priest of Israel, Aaron ceased to be the minister of Moses, his place being taken by Joshua. He is mentioned in association with Miriam in a jealous complaint against the exclusive claims of Moses as the Lord's prophet. The presumption of the murmurers was rebuked, and Miriam was smitten with tzara'as. Aaron entreated Moses to intercede for her, at the same time confessing the sin and folly that prompted the uprising. Aaron himself was not struck with the plague on account of sacerdotal immunity; and Miriam, after seven days' quarantine, was healed and restored to favor Numbers 12, Micah (6:4) a prophet in Judaism, mentions Moses, Aaron, and Miriam as the leaders of Israel after the Exodus (a judgment wholly in accord with the tenor of the narratives). In the present instance it is made clear by the express words of the oracle Numbers 12:6-8 that Moses was unique among men as the one with whom the Lord spoke face to face. The failure to recognize or concede this prerogative of their brother was the sin of Miriam and Aaron.
The validity of the exclusive priesthood of the family of Aaron was attested after the ill-fated rebellion of Korah, who was a first cousin of Aaron. When the earth had opened and swallowed up the leaders of the insurgents Numbers 16:25-35. Eleazar, the son of Aaron, was commissioned to take charge of the censers of the dead priests. And when the plague had broken out among the people who had sympathized with the rebels, Aaron, at the command of Moses, took his censer and stood between the living and the dead till the plague was stayed Numbers 17:1-15, 16:36-50.
Another memorable transaction followed. Each of the tribal princes of Israel took a rod and wrote his name upon it, and the twelve rods were laid up over night in the tent of meeting. On the morrow Aaron's rod was found to have budded and blossomed and borne ripe almonds Numbers 17:8. The miracle proved merely the prerogative of the tribe of Levi; but now a formal distinction was made in perpetuity between the family of Aaron and the other Levites. While all the Levites (and only Levites) were to be devoted to sacred services, the special charge of the sanctuary and the altar was committed to the Aaronites alone. The scene of this enactment is unknown, nor is the time mentioned.
The rabbis also dwell with special laudation on the brotherly sentiment which united Aaron and Moses. When the latter was appointed ruler and Aaron high priest, neither betrayed any jealousy; instead they rejoiced in one another's greatness. When Moses at first declined to go to Pharaoh, saying: "O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send" (Exodus iv. 13), he was unwilling to deprive Aaron, his brother, of the high position the latter had held for so many years; but the Lord reassured him, saying: "Behold, when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart" (). Indeed, Aaron was to find his reward, says Simon bar Yochai; for that heart which had leaped with joy over his younger brother's rise to glory greater than his was decorated with the Urim and Thummim, which were to \"be upon Aaron's heart when he goeth in before the Lord\" (Canticles Rabbah i. 10). Moses and Aaron met in gladness of heart, kissing each other as true brothers (Ex. iv. 27; compare Song of Songs, viii. 1), and of them it is written: \"Behold how good and how pleasant [it is] for brethren to dwell together in unity!\" (Ps. cxxxiii. 1). Of them it is said (Ps. lxxxv. 10): \"Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed [each other]\"; for Moses stood for righteousness, according to Deuteronomy xxxiii. 21, and Aaron for peace, according to . Again, mercy was personified in Aaron, according to Deuteronomy xxxiii. 8, and truth in Moses, according to Numbers xii. 7 .
When Moses poured the oil of anointment upon the head of Aaron, Aaron modestly shrank back and said: \"Who knows whether I have not cast some blemish upon this sacred oil so as to forfeit this high office.\" Then the Shekhinah spake the words: \"Behold the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard of Aaron, that even went down to the skirts of his garment, is as pure as the dew of Hermon\" .
Recently, the tradition that Kohanim are actually descended from a single patriarch Aaron was found to be apparently consistent with genetic testing. Many Cohenim, but not all, share a direct male lineage with a common Y chromosome, testing was done across sectors of the Jewish population to see if there was any commonality between their Y chromosomes. Many of the results were found to cluster rather closely around a particular DNA signature, which the researchers named the Cohen modal haplotype, implying that many of the Kohanim do share a distinctive common ancestry. This information was also used (perhaps prematurely) to support the claim of the Lemba (a sub-Saharan tribe) that they were in fact, a tribe of Jews.
The Cohen Modal Haplotype or CMH is found in haplogroup J1, which geneticists estimate originated in the Southern Levant (modern day Israel, Jordan; biblical Canaan) or North Africa (Egypt) approximately 10,000 - 15,000 years ago. Biblical tradition holds that Abraham and his ancestors, the Semitic tribes, originated from Southern Arabia or East Africa (Genesis 10); Aaron and Moses were 7th generation descendants from Abraham (Exodus 6). The traditional date for Abraham is circa 2200-2000 BCE. Behar, et al, found Cohenim in a variety of haplogroups (E3b, G2, H, I1b, J, K2, Q, R1a1, R1b), which included those which originated in the Levant (J1, J2) and those from Southern Arabia, East Africa, or another geographic region.
Aaron is considered a type of Christ, the high priest of the new dispensation. In the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Maronite Church he is venerated as a saint, with a feast day celebrated on September 4, together with Moses (for those churches which follow the traditional Julian Calendar, September 4 falls on September 17 of the modern Gregorian Calendar). He is also commemorated, together with other righteous saints from the Old Testament on the Sunday of the Holy Fathers (the Sunday before Christmas).
He is commemorated as one of the Holy Forefathers in the Calendar of Saints of the Armenian Apostolic Church on July 30. He is commemorated on July 1 in the modern Latin calendar and in the Syriac Calendar.
A significant difference in the Quran is the fact that Aaron was not involved with the creation of the Golden Calf, but did not prevent it as he feared for his life at the hands of the idol-makers.

Fallout: New Vegas
Very immersive, huge world to explore, massive replay potential
Graphics a little dated, still pretty buggy
Following in the footsteps of any successful game can be a tricky task, especially one as much-loved as Fallout 3. However, that is the task that developers Obsidian and publishers Bethesda have given themselves. Much hyped, much anticipated - we get exploring the Mojave Desert in our Fall Out: New Vegas review. Is it more of the same or worthy of new-game status?
As there has been so much talk of the title already, if you've been following its progress you'll have an idea of the story and the setting, but for those unfamiliar we'll give a very brief recap. Set around 3 years after its predecessor, Fall Out: New Vegas is set in the Mojave wasteland, which can be roughly split into Nevada, the Mojave desert and Las Vegas. There are two main factions in the game: the NCR (New California Republic) and The Legion (a nasty bunch).
You are placed in the role of a courier, who after being shot in the head, is rescued and treated for his/her injuries. Cue your mission to find out who shot you and your entry into the game. Incidentally, this game is easily as big as Fallout 3, so on that basis alone you can be sure you're getting a certain amount of value for money, even if many aspects appear similar. There's also a huge amount of content and variation separate from the main plot, so exploration is still the name of the game.
One quick note on the storyline: we liked it and even preferred it to that of Fallout 3. The reason is straightforward - it takes itself far less seriously and rather than giving you a role to fit into (growing up with your father in a vault) there's far less to go on, which in turn helps to make the character yours. There's even a touch of the who-dunnit/mystery about the story (when you see the opening cutscene you'll see what we mean) - but to its credit, it never dominates proceedings.
The forming of your character runs very much the same as in Fallout 3, introducing variations on a theme; a Rorschach inkblot test, rather than the G.O.A.T. - however as you travel around the wasteland you'll notice lots of other little touches to both the environment and innovations in the gameplay mechanics that have been tweaked to produce something that's familiar and yet different enough to make you feel it is worth the purchase.
The first thing to strike you as you walk out into the wilderness, is what appears to be improved visuals despite the graphics engine used for Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas being the same. Seeing as the Mojave wasteland has not been affected by the nuclear devastation you'll also see clear blue skies, which in turn makes the surrounding area a lot more interesting - gone are the often dreary visuals of its predecessor and in its place (although still often pretty barren) is a far more vibrant world. And this vibrancy, to our mind, is the first improvement. Signs blow in the wind, dust clouds come and go and this all helps to create a far more immersive environment.
This change also extends to the society in which you find yourself, the characters you meet give the illusion of having a far greater interest in their town/settlement, meaning your actions feel as though they have a far greater consequence - which is precisely what they do have. This is due, in part, to the return of traits from Fallout 1 and 2 (bringing special abilities along with certain drawbacks. An example of this is the four eyes trait: plus 1 perception when wearing glasses, but minus 1 without) and also the in-depth reputation system.
Split into three main headings of good, mixed and bad, your reputation is refined further by sub-groups within these headings. When you consider the numerous factions within the Fallout world and the reputation system changing in relation to each one, it's clear that character development is at the forefront here.
This isn't the only factor that determines how you're treated by the various groups; find yourself meeting the wrong faction whilst wearing clothing of a rival group and a shoot-out is almost guaranteed. The new companion wheel also works well, making the interaction with your chosen buddies far less arduous.
Another excellent addition is the way the work benches, and now campfires, add to the crafting of weapons and ammo as well as chems. The detail is staggering and although initially a bit daunting it doesn't turn out to be too complex - just different. An example of this is the way guns can be broken down into constituent parts in order to make, perhaps more vital, ammo. There's even a designated position on the D-pad for changing ammo types without going into your Pip Boy, yes it's one less slot for a weapon, but vital for choosing the right ammo - such as hollow point or armour piercing - against certain types of enemy/armour. There's also weapon modding, which adds even more complexity to proceedings.
The degree to which you'll use the crafting mechanic is down to how involved you like to get into your games, as we found it's possible to get by without delving too deeply - still it's a very nice touch. Again it's all things we've seen before, just revamped, and for our part made a little better - nearly everything can be used to make your character and what he/she is carrying that little bit more personal.
So we come to the much talked about hardcore mode - enter at your own risk. The mode can be turned off and on at your convenience, but only if you see the game through from the very beginning in this super-hard setting will you get the reward. We at Pocket-lint probably aren't the best gamers in the world, but we're no slouches either and playing Fallout: New Vegas on normal is certainly a challenge, as you really do reap what you sow.
On hard it's a whole new level of tough, and it won't be for everyone. Things you probably already know about hardcore mode is that ammo has weight, stimpaks don't heal straight away, environmental factors play a larger part with H2O, Food and Sleep all being a consideration - all of which are monitored in your status bar - making surviving on a day to day basis that much harder.
What you might not be so aware of is how this affects the way you interact with NPCs in the game. Because just staying alive is that bit more difficult, you want to be absolutely certain about your actions before upsetting anyone - especially the NCR or Legion factions - as staying alive will become far more difficult.
Again this is where juggling your reputation with the various factions becomes a fine art. For our part anyway, hardcore mode led to a short life and a rather brutal death, however it's a great addition for those who want to go deep and get fully immersed.
However, it's not all great for Fallout: New Vegas. Although the graphics look slightly tweaked the character models are very similar and can look a bit dated - with combat looking especially clumsy at times - heads still fly off the shoulders of enemies when shot, making it look as if they've just had a fight with Connor MacLeod, rather than you and your hunting rifle.
A lot was also made of the third-person mode being tweaked; well if it has it hasn't been tweaked very much, as despite an added over the shoulder cam (you can't see the feet) it still looks shoddy and should be avoided - very poor as we were quite looking forward to it.
There's also been a bid to make the fighting slightly more FPS-esque by way of a down the barrel aim mode, which uses the gun's sights. This, although interesting at times, was a little difficult to use when facing multiple enemies and felt a bit clumsy, subsequently we ended up using VATS the vast majority of the time.
But the biggest issue whilst playing the game (on the PS3) was its tendency to freeze. Mainly happening whilst out in the open (presumably struggling with the new and improved vistas) Fallout: New Vegas suffered with pretty persistent frame rate issues, sticking on a frame for a fraction of a second before carrying on. This never ended in a full-on crash, but was irritating to say the least, and became very bad at one point when access was finally gained to the New Vegas Strip. We'd be interested to know whether you have the same problem, as this will no doubt vary between consoles, it looks like a patch of some kind is certainly in order.
Despite these grumbles, Fallout: New Vegas is thoroughly enthralling and if you were a fan of the first two games, and for that matter the third, this is pretty much a must-have title for you. It's a shame Obsidian, with all the problems it had with the previous Fallout 3, couldn't get it right first time, but we're sure with a few updates this should become another classic.
Is it different enough to call a title in its own right? If we're being harsh then perhaps not; the look and feel are still too similar to the last iteration, but saying that there's still a lot of new elements to discover. With the reputation system adding a lot to the character and the type of game you'll experience, we're sure there'll be a fair few of you who play this through more than once.
It has to be said that we haven't seen everything that the game has to offer (quite possibly bugs included), that would clearly take months - of which we don't have - however in our time with the game it remained as immersive as ever, and although very similar to Fallout 3, Obsidian has just about done enough to get away with it.
Still, for nearly £50, if you're new to the series you could do a lot worse than picking up a copy of Fallout 3 instead - it's a cracker and will keep you going for months.

The family that plays together stays together
That's what local Las Vegas Tow Co. Owner Tony says about his tow pro company billiards team in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Only Towing Billiards Team We Know Of !
He started playing pool with a good friend and professional pool table mover in Las Vegas. He quickly fell in love with the sport and soon started playing in a local amateur Las Vegas league where he met all the cool dudes at his buddies pool table repairing business. He was so intrigued that he even learned DIY re-felting on his own pool table.
What's It Take To Start Your Own Pool Team
I now play on a local Las Vegas group once weekly on the other and two amateur groups, one and Thursday nights.
I performed some guy ranked as a-3 the 2009 Tuesday, which meant I needed before he won 2 matches to win 6 matches. I'd the guy down 3 to nothing-when I inadvertently kicked the 8ball in with my cue-ball and cut a ball. This set heat and the guy was on the hill. Fortunate for me the guy missed the ball and I cleared the stand to win 6 to 1 to the match.
I will be ranked in amateur 9-ball, but I'm not now on a-9 ball group. What's your preferred Pool Billiards sport?
What this means is that all of us play with up heads without respect to handicaps or ability level. We perform a mixture of 8-ball and 9-ball also it's a race to 7. (First to win 7 matches) The participant who wins the slowdown on day one of the game selects which sport is performed first or either the rest to the primary stand. (9-ball or 8-ball)
The Thursday BCA league isn't handicapped and every one performs heads-up. I won 4 matches and dropped one in an extended security war, this past Thursday night. I runs in the 4 triumphs and had 2 rest.
This comes in to influence on Tuesday nights as it's a routine amateur league. This league is 8-ball and my ability level is a-7.
I'd like to listen to about league play in your hometown plus it'd be cool to see what your ability level is and in the event that you've got a rank system. Drop me a-line and let me understand. Would you rather to play billiards or pool heads-up or is a handicap program better for you personally?

|A KosherEye Chat with Naftali Hanau
We continue our conversation with Naftali Hanau, founder and CEO of Grow and Behold Kosher Pastured Meats.
What makes pastured meat different?
Our animals are never fed growth hormones or synthetic feeds. They are treated with antibiotics only when they are sick, not as a routine part of their diet as is common on large feedlot operations. Their natural diet of pasture, hay and grains means that you don't have to wonder about what you're putting in your body.
What distinguishes Grow and Behold Meat and Poultry from other purveyors?
Why and how did you choose a meat career path?
As my studies continued I learned both that producing meat on a very , very small scale (on farm) is just not practical (trust me, I had to shecht 3 chickens each week for the first year after I received my license to shecht) AND that I actually had a very good understanding of how one turns a live animal into a kosher piece of meat. During that time Anna and I turned our focus slowly from vegetable farming to meat production. We founded Grow and Behold in the summer of 2010 with the launch of Sara's Spring Chicken, our exclusive brand of Pastured poultry. The rest is history.
What's in the Grow & Behold pipeline that you would like to share with our readers?
Would you share two of your families "go to" meat meal recipes?

BAE hands out nearly £660,000 in 2012 bonuses
Last updated at 11:03, Thursday, 03 January 2013
BARROW shipyard workers are set to bag a share of nearly £660,000 in bonuses.
BAE Systems Maritime - Submarines today announced it will reward non-executive grade employees with an £150 in recognition of their work last year.
Nearly 4,400 workers will receive the £150 payment.
BAE hit a number of significant milestones in 2012, including the second Astute class submarine, Ambush, leaving Barrow in September and its subsequent contract acceptance in December.
The company was also awarded a £1.2billion contract by the Ministry of Defence for the fourth Astute class submarine, Audacious, as well as more than £600m funding for the Vanguard replacement programme.
John Hudson, BAE Systems Maritime – Submarines Managing Director, said: "At the heart of last year's achievements was the valued contribution of our employees and this payment reflects the business' appreciation of their continued efforts."

Have your say
Come now £150 is not a lot of money. I wonder wahy there has been such a lot of vitriol from your contributors over this issue. I assume that most of the BAE people used this for shopping or a small luxury.
Jealousy over someone getting £150 is unbecoming.
are you having a laugh ? Could you Please tell the readers the last contract delivered to time & cost by BAE ? I think you will struggle finding one over your 30 years of being there! Ever wondered why they need contractors ...??

From the 19th century onward, there were attempts to develop Lee-on-the-Solent as a resort. Early impetus came from Charles Edmund Newton Robinson, who persuaded his father, John Charles Robinson, art curator and collector, to fund the buying of land. Over the period 1884 to 1894 the town was established with the setting out of Marine Parade, a pier, railway connection along with a number of impressive red brick villas. The railway service was discontinued in the 1930s and the pier, unrepaired after breaching in aid of coastal defence in World War II, was demolished in 1958.
In 1935 the Lee Tower complex was built on the seafront next to the old pier and railway station. It was designed by architects Yates, Cook & Derbyshire, and comprised a white v-shaped Art Deco building with a 120-foot tower. The complex housed a cinema, ballroom and restaurant, as well as a viewing platform at the tower's peak. The complex was demolished in 1971 by Gosport Council, with its land is now used for the promenade and remembrance gardens.
Lee-on-the Solent has had a long association with flying. Seaplane trials took place at Lee-on-the-Solent as early as 1915. A base for Seaplane training was established in 1917 on the current Daedalus site.
A Planning Application was Approved in February 2008 for the construction of a Multi-Purpose Driving Test Centre with Motorcycle Manoeuvring Area (MPTC) from the Driving Standards Agency, inside a part of the Daedalus site. This part of the site has now been acquired by the DSA and is currently under Construction. It is anticipated that the new Driving Test Centre (MPTC) will be ready by September 29th 2008, in time before EC Directive 2000/56/EC comes into force which will require Motorcycle Tests to be conducted from a MPTC.
In 2003 the community of Lee-on-the-Solent received nationwide attention for probably the first time in its 120-year existence for the wrong reason. The government had proposed to house asylum-seekers at the former HMS Daedalus base which forms a large area of the resort. At once, the Daedalus Action Group was formed under the Chairmanship of John Beavis to oppose the scheme with the support of a large number of local residents. After a U turn in Government policy, the Home Office finally decided in February 2004 to abandon the asylum centre plan and the action group celebrated with a rally on the seafront. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the argument, a strong community spirit was evident throughout. Channel 4 produced a fly-on-the-wall Dispatches documentary "Keep them out" in 2004 dealing with both sides of the argument.
In early May 2006 20 unexploded pipe mines were found under HMS Daedalus during runway repairs. 60 feet (20 metres) long, they were left over from 265, packed with a total of 2,400lb of gelignite, planted in World War II to make the airfield unusable in the event of a Nazi invasion. The subsequent removal, thought to be the largest of its kind in peacetime Britain, led to the evacuation of some 900 homes staggered over a 5 week period.
Whilst Lee has a High Street which contains a number of shops it is in gradual decline. The once bustling shopping centre has slowly become mostly a collection of takeaways, charity shops and estate agents, but a number of independent shops still survive. This has come about since the number of retirement homes has drastically increased and the younger population have been pushed away, and many people choose to shop at out-of-town outlets, taking trade away from the High Street. Lee is gradually losing its popularity as a holiday destination. This was not helped by the closure of the Belle Vue Hotel after its planned expansion was halted by local objections, with its subsequent demolition and the building of apartments for the elderly. Which litter lee's seafront.
Large new developments in the 1980s, 1990s, have swelled the population. More recently 1,050 new units have been built at the Cherque Farm area of the town, and further development will take place over the next few years. Elsewhere along Marine Parade, the once jewel of this seaside town, has lost most of the original villas and hotels to developers. Today several original properties remain boarded up awaiting the fate of the developers demolition gangs.
With commanding views of the Solent and across the Isle of Wight, Lee seafront quite rightly used to be packed with families and people enjoying the beach nearly all year round. From Browndown right the way along as far as Hill Head in the west you would be hard pushed to find a spot to sit and enjoy yourself. Lee no longer has the hotels to attract holiday makers as it once did, today's visitors tend to be day trippers. The seafront train has long since gone from the seafront with its station turned into a collection of beach huts, tucked away behind the car park near the location where the Lee Tower used to stand.
The seafront on Marine Parade East is where the Club House is situated for the Lee on the Solent Sailing Club LOSSC This friendly and well supported sailing club has commanding views across the Solent where you can enjoy a drink of your choice whilst watching the sun go down over Cowes on the Isle of Wight. The club offers competitive racing with a good selection of Dinghy classes. There are Lasers, Laser 2000s, RS400s and plenty of dinghies for the youngster including Toppers, Optimists and a fair amount of other popular classes.
The club has racing on Saturday and Sunday afternoons from March to October as well as on Tuesday evenings from April through to November. The club house has a well equipped Galley that serves great bar food as well as more traditional meals throughout the week.
At the signal station, where the racing starts and finishes can be found a smaller galley that can provide light snacks and soft drinks for the people involved in racing or training of adults and youngsters at the weekend. It is a RYA accredited Sailing School and is open to visitors and day sailors alike. Boats can be hired if you would like to get on the water during hot summers.
Lee-on-the-Solent is the home to the Hovercraft Museum which houses the world's largest collection of rare Hovercraft including some of the earliest and largest. It can be found on the main road along the seafront and hosts an open day every summer.
Further towards Gosport is the area known as Browndown. It is a former naval firing range and makes an interesting walk in summer. There are many old relics to explore, and it's not unknown to find large jellyfish washed up on the shore. Browndown army camp was the setting for the television series Bad Lads Army. Browndown army camp is also used as a summer activity camp for young cadets from all over the country.
A short walk from the High Street in Lee is the Lee-on-the-Solent Tennis Club (known colloquially as the LOST Club). It is a popular spot with locals and features a small bar, a gym (with squash facilities),six tennis courts and a sports therapist.
Lee is also home to a few pubs such as The Old Ship, The Bun Penny, The Wyvern and The Inn by the Sea. The town was home to a number of good quality pubs, but some have since closed being demolished to make way for housing and retirement developments, noticeably the Belle Vue Hotel, a popular sea front bar, hotel and restaurant and The Swordfish which was located on the border between Lee-on-the-Solent and Hill Head.

The ultimate goal of a liberal arts education is to help students develop the abilities to think and continue their learning. These skills will aid students as they take their places in a world dominated by change. These abilities also will aid students in their future endeavors as they encounter problems, whether in their personal or professional lives, or in their communities. Graduates of the College of Humanities and Sciences are broadly educated, not simply trained, allowing them to function as understanding participants in events rather than as spectators or even victims of those events.
To achieve this goal, the faculty of the College of Humanities and Sciences has identified the following specific requirements.

Will the plus size ever have the other colors (ie, white with pink bow or white with blue bow, etc.) or will they only ever have white on white or black on black? Thanks!
The description says the cuff on the "one size" stretches to about 22 inches, and the plus size to about 26. I am wondering, how many inches are the cuffs on both sizes of these when they are not stretched?
what size doyou have in this?
I have a question about the numbers beside the "One size" option beside the socks, particularly the Bow Thigh Highs. I have a 6.5 shoe size, and wanted to ask which number I'd pick beside the socks seeing as they range from 1-6.
If I purchase in white, is dying them an option?
Will you be getting more colors of these in plus size? I would love you forever~ (I already do)
I've got 23 inch fabulous thighs and I've bought the spider web thigh highs. I was informed that I could cut off the tops and they would fit my legs with a garter (which worked wonderfully it looks so great!) I was wondering if I could do that with these?
Just wondering when these will be back in stock!!! dying to get the black in plus size!
The surest proof of a naturally benevolent universe is that @SockDreams exists.

The fact that the Sports Media (aka ESPN) has worked so hard to turn a man who assisted in a murder into some kind of hero and now hired him as an analyst just continues a long line of ESPN giving criminals (Bruce Pearl, e.g.) jobs. And yet, they go out of their way to tear down others for minor BS.
Man, the modern money-based media sucks. As does ESPN.

The 10 best sushi restaurants on Long Island: Eat here now
Sushi, the subtlest of dishes, boomed loudly in 2014.
Whether because of perceived healthfulness, its clean flavor, or just owing to greater availability, raw fish has stayed hot. And Long Island has benefitted from the rush of new restaurants that specialize in it. Sushi may not be as omnipresent as pizza and pasta, but the communities without a place to sample the uncooked taste of the ocean is shrinking.
These are Newsday's choices for the 10 best spots for sushi in Nassau and Suffolk, listed alphabetically.
Arata Sushi(Credit: Newsday / Rebecca Cooney)
Arata Sushi, Syosset: Jimmy Lian's sushi, traditional and contemporary, bridges refined Japanese and creative New American styles. The chef's choice selection is exceptional. Likewise, the familiar nigirizushi. And Lian prepares distinctive sushi such as maguro "invictus" with wasabi-daikon radish dressing (pictured) and an "invincible sandwich" with triangles of salmon, avocado, tomato and roes. You may find Maui onion salsa with fluke or white tuna with salsa verde, too.
Arata Sushi's invincible sandwich roll is a three-sided production that takes in salmon, avocado, tobiko or flying-fish roe, and that ever-elusive ...quot;special sauce,...quot; which here includes spring onion, mayonnaise and mirin, the condiment loosely related to sake.
Be-Ju Sashimi & Sake Bar(Credit: Yana Paskova)
Be-Ju Sashimi ...amp; Sake Bar, Melville: Be-Ju immediately elevated sushi on Long Island. It's a serene, elegant dining room situated within buoyant Jewel restaurant. Chefs Tom Schaudel, Shigeki Uchimaya and Hiroki Tanii fashion masterful sushi, especially fatty and medium-fatty tuna. But also select remarkable dishes such as paté-style steamed monkfish liver with sea urchin and ponzu sauce, tea-smoked salmon, a Japanese lobster roll (pictured), shrimp-and-sea urchin risotto, and tuna tataki with black truffle. Lunch specials available.
Wasabi tobiko sushi is served at Be-Ju, a sushi restaurant tucked inside Jewel in Melville.
Domo Sushi(Credit: Bruce Gilbert)
Domo Sushi, East Setauket: Ken Ming, chef-owner of this contemporary sushi spot, puts a South American spin on such sushi bar items as yellowtail ceviche with ginger and soy (pictured), and tiradito with escolar and yellowtail. His "dynamite" roll -- escolar, tempura flakes, jalapeño, tuna, yellowtail, salmon and lemon-yuzu miso sauce -- is at once fiery and citrusy.
Domo Sushi in East Setauket serves a dynamite roll with escolar, tempura flakes, jalapeño, tuna, yellowtail, salmon and lemon-yuzu miso sauce.
Ginza(Credit: Johnny Simon)
Ginza, Massapequa: East and west are in harmony at Ginza, where fish is flown in from Japan and rack of lamb is served, too. This restaurant rises like a temple in an unlikely location. That's only the first surprise. Savor the pristine sashimi and the ornate sushi rolls, each terrific. Sample the Kobe-beef meatballs. Go for the bluefin toro, the salmon tasting and especially the chef's lustrous, taste-of-the-sea choices of the day. You'll feel refreshed and invigorated.
Ginza in Massapequa serves its icon roll, made with chopped tuna, chopped yellowtail, avocado and chili paste.
Koiso(Credit: Jin Lee)
Koiso, Carle Place: Kyoko and Kikumatsu Mitsumori are the mom and pop who own this old-school Japanese restaurant. Kikumatsu buys much of his own hopping-fresh local fish in Freeport, then expertly slices it with skills honed over 40 years. He's not interested in putting out innovative rolls, and your best bets here are the simplest: nigirizushi, sashimi, chirashi. Kyoko is responsible for the cooked menu, including gyoza, ramen and donburi (rice bowls).
Homemade fried dumplings are served at Koiso in Carle Place.
Matsuya(Credit: Jeremy Bales)
Matsuya, Great Neck: Matsuya is subtitled "quality Japanese eats." It goes in several directions here, not all Japanese. But the essential Matsuya is found in the uncooked fish. The multi-ingredient sushi rolls -- including the fuzzy bass roll, pictured, with tempura crisped sea bass, avocado, spicy romaine slaw and tobiko -- are satisfying. You should, however, stick with the nigirizushi. Buttery yellowtail, beef-red maguro tuna, pearly fluke, Spanish mackerel and horse mackerel, sweet shrimp and, if available, fatty tuna.
Matsuya's barbecued oysters appetizer.
Nagashima(Credit: Nicole Horton)
Nagashima, Jericho: No bells and whistles (or flashing lights or orchids or banana leaves) at Nagashima, just impeccably fresh, immaculately sliced fish on properly seasoned rice. Sit at the sushi bar and chef-owner Makoto Kobayashi will explain the difference in taste between summer fluke and winter fluke. He'll break out the fresh wasabi and use a sharkskin paddle to grate it, expound on the finer points of sake. Drink (and eat) it all in.
Onsen Sushi(Credit: Newsday / Rebecca Cooney)
Onsen Sushi, Oakdale: At this local favorite, chef-owner Jason Chen's lively personality doesn't detract from his true forte: serving up fresh, well-cut raw fish. His specials board offers such items as wild salmon, live scallops and uni, all beautifully presented. Try the "yellow submarine" maki roll, spicy yellowtail juxtaposed against the cool sweetness of chopped apple. (Pictured is the Victoria roll with spicy, crunchy tuna and avocado wrapped in pink soy paper.)
Onsen Sushi serves classics including a salmon bento box.
Sushi Ko(Credit: Yana Paskova)
Sushi Ko, Merrick: Chef-owner James Wang once worked for Japanese sea captains and understands fresh, high quality raw fish. Try his truffle white tuna appetizer; it's delicate and subtly truffled. Sushi and sashimi is pristine, artfully cut. Even his ornate maki rolls come together well. (Pictured, the hot white dragon roll with escolar, jalapeno, seaweed salad and seared yellowtail dusted with chili powder.)
Sushi Ko's TNT appetizer is tuna topped with black caviar and a quail egg.
Taka(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
Taka, Westbury: To fully appreciate chef-owner Taka Yamaguchi's artistry, settle in at the sushi bar and ask for the omakase, chef's choice. Depending on season (and whim), you might be served marinated mackerel, Arctic char, Spanish mackerel topped with ginger and scallion (pictured), yellowtail sushi with its own little belt of shiso leaf, fluke, toro (belly tuna) so fatty it was pink, or raw sweet shrimp.
Sashimi deluxe at Taka in Westbury.
