True Blood
Want to Meet Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer? Just Donate to Their New Film!
Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer have a lot on their plate. Not only are they new parents to adorable twin babies, but they start filming True Blood early next year, and have a handful of films coming out.
Among their many projects is Civilianaire Boys' Club, a movie they are producing with their small indie film company CASM. But they need your help first.
That's right, Truebies — your favorite couple wants you to help make their movie!
Anna and Stephen's friend, Matt Larkin, wrote the film, and recently posted on Indiegogo (which is an open funding platform for creative, entreprenurial, and cause campaigns) asking for funding help. Even though True Blood pays well, this comedic short film only has a $20K budget.
So, to raise the necessary money to make this "robbery gone wrong" film, their company is offering some awesome rewards, including discussing one of your projects, scripts, or ideas with Anna, Stephen, and the rest of the team for an hour ($500), attending the star-studded screening ($250), being in the film ($400), being credited as a producer ($750), or the best of the best: a personalized voicemail from Ms. Paquin herself ($1,000).
These rewards are limited, though, and funding ends on Nov. 14, so if you're interested, head over to the Civilianaire Boys' Club's IndieGoGo page and donate today. If you miss out on the top prizes, you can also give smaller amounts for screenings of the film, your name in the credits, or a copy of the movie.
Would you pay this much to meet Anna and Stephen? Weigh in below.

Building a Healthier America
Improving the public health and safety of America's communities is our primary goal in the Office of National Drug Control Policy, and last week I was pleased to release the Administration's 2011 National Drug Control Strategy, which provides the blueprint for reducing drug use. I have said many times that there is no one drug problem in America. It manifests itself in many different ways across the country. But the consequences of drug use affect us all.
That is why our Strategy focuses on preventing substance abuse and intervening at an early stage in the process – before the costs to society mount. In 2007, the most recent year for which we have data, the economic impact of illicit drug use on American society totaled more than $193 billion, more than the estimated annual costs of diabetes, obesity, or smoking. Addressing addiction and substance abuse in this country is crucial to building a healthy, strong, and competitive America.
The Obama Administration's inaugural National Drug Control Strategy, released last year, outlined a collaborative, balanced, and science-based approach to reducing drug use and its costs and consequences. This year's Strategy expands and builds upon that foundation, with a continued emphasis on drug prevention and early intervention programs in healthcare settings, diverting non-violent drug offenders into treatment instead of jail, funding more scientific research on drug use, and expanding access to substance abuse treatment. For the first time, this year's Strategy also outlines specific actions designed to improve the health and safety of three special populations affected by high rates of substance use: active duty military and veterans; college students; and women and their dependent children.
Today's announcement builds upon several important legislative milestones achieved over the past year. In August, President Obama signed into law the Fair Sentencing Act. This significant piece of criminal justice reform dramatically reduced a 100-to-1 disparity between the amounts of powder and crack cocaine that trigger mandatory minimum sentences and eliminates the mandatory minimum sentence for simple possession of crack cocaine. It also increased penalties for major drug traffickers. In October, the President signed into law the Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act of 2010, which will help communities combat the Nation's prescription drug abuse epidemic by providing states and localities the authority to collect expired, unused, or unneeded prescription drugs. These accomplishments are part of the rebalanced approach to our Nation's drug policy.
Both this year and last year's Strategies were developed with significant input from our Federal, state, local, and tribal partners, as well as dedicated experts from across the country. We look forward to working together to address this issue and build a healthier America.

text: Under 2.2.14 and prior, I had problems with spin_lock dead-lock on Sparc SS-10 platforms equipped with quad Ross RTK-625 CPUs. Oddly, I did not have any problem with a 4/670MP with exactly the same CPU's (in fact I took the CPU modules out of an SS-10 and stuck them in a 4/670MP so they were the SAME modules). These were the 100mhz version. Under 2.2.15 the spin_lock dead-lock issue seems to have dissappeared, but now I see two new failures modes, and worse, these failure modes appears to affect single CPU machines as well. One failure mode, the machines will hang hard. No response to anything typed at the console, not even L1-A will work. The only way to get the machines to recover is to power cycle them. This affects both SS-10's with multiple Ross Hypersparc CPU's and LX's with a single TI CPU. The other failure mode is the machine will stop responding, you can't telnet/rlogin/ssh in, Apache won't response, etc. But whatever you type at the console is echoed and you can still switch virtual consoles. However, if you switch consoles and get a new login prompt and type a password, the password prompt never appears. You can continue to switch consoles and type things and see it echo but the machine continues not to respond. Control-Alt-Delete also does not work, but in this failure mode L1-A does work. Neither failure mode produces any console messages, no OOPS, no spin_lock deadlock errors, NADA, which needless to say doesn't make troubleshooting easy.

text: family fun 2 May 2014 share 101 rainy day ideas: Part four Our final instalment with lots of games, activities and crafts ideas for kids to do when it's pouring outside Click on the links for part one, part two and part three. Attempt a tongue twister Saying a tongue twister once might be easy, but the skill is being able to say it five times – fast. Try our assortment of top twisters – from the warm-ups to the mighty big one – and see if the little ones' lips trip too. Guaranteed giggles. See the tongue twisters >> Begin a wildlife wall chart Just because it's raining and pouring, doesn't mean the birds and critters stay away. From the comfort of your window, task the kids with peering out into the garden to spot the birds, critters and animals they can see, then plot their sightings onto a wildlife chart. And we just so happen to have one readily made! Download the wildlife chart >> Create 3D butterfly cards 1. Download this template and cut out a butterfly wing shape from white or coloured paper. 2. Stick the butterfly's body to the centre of the wings, using glue. 3. If you've used plain paper for your butterfly's wings, use felt tip pens, colouring pencils or crayons to decorate the wings. Remember: the butterfly wings should be mirror images of each other, so draw the same pattern on both sides. 4. Fold the butterfly along each side of the body, folding the paper backwards to make a crease along the edge of the body. Then fold the paper forwards so the butterfly's wings will stick out. 5. Use double-sided tape or glue to stick the butterfly to the centre of your card. This craft activity was put together by Laura Howard who blogs at Bugs and Fishes. Create a cup and ball game Crafts blogger Laura Howard put this fun game together and explains how to make it. 1. Download this template and cut out the cone piece from coloured card. 2. Cut a long piece of yarn, tie a large knot in one end and thread it through the felt bead. Trim any excess yarn away from below the knot. Then trim the yarn so it's about 12 inches long (excluding the felt bead). 3. Place the yarn on the card where the dotted line is marked on the template. Then stick the yarn end in place with a piece of sticky tape where an X is marked on the template. 4. Carefully curve the card to form a cone shape. This will be the "cup" you'll catch the ball in. Hold the shape together with two paperclips. 5. Use tape to stick the cone together outside and inside. If you want you can use double-sided sticky tape when sticking the outside edge together, so the tape is hidden. 6. Decorate the cone with stars. Use a sheet of star stickers, or use small stars punched from coloured paper and stick them in place with glue. Laura blogs at Bugs and Fishes. Create a gingerbread safari Create these tasty gingerbread animal characters and build a story around it for added fun. Kids will enjoy rolling out the dough and cutting out the animals before decorating them with colourful icing. The story is up to you! See the recipe on Tesco Real Food >> Create a summer holiday bucket list Its only a few months away from the summer holidays... On rainy days it's nice to think about all the lovely things you can do when the weather takes a better turn.

See the recipe on Tesco Real Food >> Get building with a Meccano set Tesco shopper Allan Garside recommends the old school Mecanno set. This one allows you to build up to 15 different models – a helicopter, robots, bikes and more – from the building pieces and instructions provided. Hours of fun! Meccano 15 Model Building Set £15.00 buy now Make a magic wand Let the kids cast their spells on the family! Here, blogger Laura Howard shows how to put this cute wand together. 1. Download the template and cut out a star from coloured card. 2. Cover the star with PVA glue, using a paintbrush to apply it evenly. Sprinkle glitter over the star until the whole surface is covered. Leave the glue to dry then shake off all the excess glitter. 3. Use double-sided sticky tape or glue to stick the glittered star to another piece of coloured card. Cut out the star so there's a border of coloured card around the glittered star, as pictured. 4. Cut some narrow ribbons the same length as your twig. Trim the ribbon ends at an angle to help prevent fraying. 5. Use a piece of sticky tape to tape the ribbons to the back of the card star, so they dangle down. 6. Attach the twig to the back of the star with another piece of tape. Laura blogs at Bugs and Fishes. Make a paper flower crown We like this paper craft activity courtesy of blogger Laura Howard. Here's how to make it. 1. Download this template and cut out the crown shape from green card. Then use a hole punch to punch two holes, one at each side of the crown. 2. Cut two pieces of yarn – these will be the ties for when the crown is worn. Tie one to each side of the crown (using the holes you've just punched) and secure the short end of the yarn to the back of the crown with sticky tape. 3. Use the flower templates provided to cut out five small and five large flowers and flower centres in assorted colours (20 pieces in total). 4. Using glue, stick the flower centres to the flowers, mixing up the colours so each flower has a contrasting centre. 5. Arrange the flowers on the crown. Then use more glue to stick the flowers in place, sticking them in the centres only so the rest of the flower isn't attached to the card and will stand out when the crown is worn. Laura blogs at Bugs and Fishes. Make bug badges Crafts extraordinaire Laura Howard put this fun activity together and explains how to make it. 1. Download this template and then colour in your chosen badge using pencils or felt tip pens. 2. Cut out the badge, cutting inside the black line. 3. Use a glue stick to stick the paper circle to a backing piece of card. 4. Cut out the card circle, either following the line of your paper circle or cutting a bigger circle to create a border around the edge, as pictured. 5. Use a piece of sticky tape to attach a safety pin to the back of the card. For an extra activity, draw your own badges. Use the blank badge templates provided to draw the bugs and other wildlife you see in your garden or in the local park. The more wildlife you spot, the more your badge collection will grow.

Who can resist thick, smooth, rich chocolate? No one in my house, that's for sure! I've been known to make my fudge icing just to eat with a spoon. But it really isn't the right consistency for enjoying over ice cream, so I set to work making homemade hot fudge for ice cream sundaes. I've tried several recipes, and combined bits of a few to get it just right and ready to share with you! This hot fudge is easy to make, smooth and rich, and stores well in the refrigerator for several weeks. Once you make this, you will not want to go back to any bottled chocolate syrup again!
This summer we had a group of friends over and enjoyed a "Build Your Own Sundae Bar". This homemade hot fudge was a huge hit! If you are looking for a way to easily serve dessert to a large group of people, especially a mixed group of gluten-free and "regular" eaters, a Sundae Bar is a fun idea. Many enjoyed Hot Fudge Brownie Sundaes, some enjoyed Banana Splits, some enjoyed Ice Cream Sundaes, and a few just loved ice cream with fresh berries. It is so easy for everyone to customize their own according to their preferences and allergies. We didn't have anyone dairy-free at our party, but you could provide dairy-free ice cream as well.
Here's what we had at our Sundae Bar:
- Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (I stick to Breyer's Natural Vanilla)
- Chewy Gluten-free Brownies
- Bananas
- Fresh Strawberries & Raspberries
- Homemade Hot Fudge (recipe below)
- Trader Joe's Sea Salt Caramel Sauce
- Homemade whipped cream
- Plain M&Ms
- Sprinkles (verify gluten-free)
- mini chocolate chips
- Toasted chopped almonds (we omitted these at the party where a child had a nut allergy, but included them the next night when we did it with just our family)
Hope this gives you some ideas so you can host your own party! Sundae parties are fun any time of the year, whether it is the middle or winter or on a hot summer night. Enjoy!!
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
- 4 squares (4 ounces) unsweetened chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
- 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Place the butter and chocolate squares in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring with a whisk, until they melt. Turn off heat.
- Whisk in the sugar and salt.
- Whisk in the evaporated milk and heat over medium heat. Cook at a gentle simmer, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens enough to coat a spatula, about 12-15 minutes. I switched to a spatula towards the end.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the vanilla.
- Serve within an hour, or cover and place in refrigerator. Keep refrigerated until ready to use. To serve, reheat on top of the stove over low/medium heat or in the microwave in 20 second increments.
- Makes about 3 cups of hot fudge, which was plenty for 20 servings, at least. This keeps well for up to 2 weeks when kept covered and refrigerated.

Humorist Dave Barry once wrote, "Eventually everybody has to die, except Elvis."
Barry was being funny, as always -- but was he right?
As America marks the 30th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death today, the singer is still very much with us. Perhaps you've seen the new commemorative DVDs of Jailhouse Rock and Viva Las Vegas, or the custom-made Elvis bikes that Harley-Davidson is offering, or the Elvis banana-and-peanut-butter cups Reese's is selling. Perhaps you bought some of these things with your prepaid Elvis Visa.

In Visual Studio 2010 Essential Training, author Walt Ritscher demonstrates how to use Visual Studio 2010 Professional to develop full-featured applications targeting a variety of platforms. Starting with an overview of the integrated developer environment, the course covers working with code editors, navigating and formatting code, and deploying applications. Also included are tutorials on running performance and load tests, and debugging code. Exercise files accompany the course.
Microsoft Office is the world's dominant corporate application suite. A good portion of the business world uses Microsoft Excel, Outlook, and Word applications. Over the years, Microsoft has incorporated many extensibility features in Office applications. With Office, you can create add-ins, write macros and even access to core features of Office via Visual Basic for Applications, sometimes called VBA. The Visual Studio team is also part of this integration toolset. In version 2003, they published a special copy of Visual Studio, called Visual Studio Tools for Office.
In Visual Studio 2010, Office integration is built right in. Let me show you some of the types of applications you can build with Visual Studio. I am using my File > New menu, and I am clicking New > Project. I have to choose a language. I can choose either Visual Basic or C#. The underlying programming model for inside Office applications is Visual Basic for Applications. Up until this release of Visual Studio, programming Office applications in C# has been a frustrating experience. The object model in VBA doesn't mesh very well with the C# mechanics.
Now that C$ 4.0 is out, it's much easier to write Office automation applications. For my demos, I'm going to use Visual Basic. So I am going to open up the Visual Basic node and choose Office and then filter it down to only the Office 2010 applications. As you can see, nearly every Office product is represented in here. Some of the Office products have multiple items. For instance, Excel has an add-in, a template, and a workbook. Let's talk about the difference between a workbook and an add-in.
A workbook, when you create an Excel workbook, all of the code that you're going to write is embedded in that one document. If you open that document, you can use the code. If you open any other documents, that code is not available. When you create an add-in, you're creating an application that is independent of any document. Most of the Office applications I've seen have a separate add-in manager, and this allows the user to remove an add-in when it's no longer needed. As you can see, there is an add-in for Excel and one for Outlook, and so on.
Let me just demonstrate what you can do with an Excel Workbook. I am going to click here and then click on OK. Visual Studio asks me if I'd like to create a new document or use an existing document. I am going to use a new document. As you can see, in the designer area of Visual Studio is a copy of Excel. Anything that you can do in Excel you can do inside Visual Studio. I can add text to a cell. I can take that cell and format it. I can apply Bold text.
If I have numbers I can put the numbers in here and then add a auto-sum formula. If I choose to run the application, I can press F5 and debug the application. Here I am pressing F5. Excel is going to launch. And the important thing is I'm now debugging my code that's inside my Excel code behind. Let me show you that code behind. I am going to close Excel and then switch over to this Sheet1.vb. And then I am going to right-click on it and choose View Code.
And as you can see, it's just Visual Basic code with some event procedures here that run when the sheet starts up and other one that runs when the sheet shuts down. I can also work with Word and the other Office products. Let me show you an example of that. I am going to choose New > Project, discard my existing one, scroll down, and pick Word Add-in. Remember, add-ins are independent of any document. Now, of course, I don't have a designer because it's not part of a document.
This is typically added to the Add-in menu in your application. So if I were to run this and go look in the Add-in menu inside Word, I would see by custom add-in. I'll show you an example of that in a later movie. As you see, this movie is just a quick overview of what you can do with Office in Visual Studio. The rest of the movies in this chapter dig into each topic in more detail.

FDA to oversee accreditation of imported food auditorsRecently, we examined one of two new proposed rules published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The Foreign Supplier Verification Program requires importers to certify to the FDA that the human and animal food they import meets the same safety standards as food grown and processed in the U.S.
By: Daryll E. Ray and Harwood D. Schaffer, Agweek
Recently, we examined one of two new proposed rules published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The Foreign Supplier Verification Program requires importers to certify to the FDA that the human and animal food they import meets the same safety standards as food grown and processed in the U.S.
One of the ways that importers could do this is to rely on certification provided by third-party auditors who "conduct food safety audits of foreign food entities, including registered foreign food facilities, and issue food and facility certifications."
The second proposed rule, "Accreditation of Third-Party Auditors/Certification Bodies to Conduct Food Safety Audits and to Issue Certifications," will help FDA ensure the competence and independence of these auditors and the organizations that accredit them.
The FDA maintains control of this process by recognizing accreditation bodies that accredit third-party auditors who perform audits of foreign food facilities and issue the food and facility certifications. Many of the needed accreditation bodies have already been established in response to industry needs.
To maintain confidence in the program, the FDA says it "will exercise oversight" of these bodies and "can remove an accreditation body or an auditor/certification body for good cause, by revoking recognition of the accreditation body or by withdrawing accreditation of the third-party auditor.
"By way of background, third-party audits are conducted by an entity independent of the audited firm or those who buy its products. Second-party audits are conducted by buyers for their suppliers and contractors or by one division within a firm or another division within the same firm. First-party audits are internal audits a firm conducts itself."
In developing the proposed rule, the FDA seeks to ensure "the competency and independence" of both the accreditation bodies and the third-party auditors. This, the FDA says, "will help assure us of the validity and reliability of certifications and other information resulting from the food safety audits they conduct.
"As a result of consolidation within the food industry and the globalization of the marketplace, coupled with some high-profile food safety incidents, many food retailers and food service providers began to require their suppliers to be audited against their standards (more commonly known as buyer requirements). Some of these supplier audits were conducted by auditors/certification bodies employed by, or acting as agents of, buyers.
Other auditors were third parties, independent of both buyers and suppliers," the FDA says.
The result of this is that many suppliers have been faced with "multiple food safety audits," creating economic inefficiencies.
"This proposal," the FDA says, "will [enable us to] oversee a certification program that will, we believe, create efficiencies by reducing the number of redundant food safety audits and by allowing us to better target resources for verifying compliance with applicable requirements.
"Having comprehensive oversight of a credible and reliable program for third-party audits and certifications of foreign food facilities will help us prevent potentially harmful food from reaching U.S. consumers and thereby improve the safety of the U.S. food supply.
"More broadly, we [FDA] think that by capitalizing on private sector food safety efforts and linking them to the public assurance system, accredited third-party certification can help transform the way we ensure the safety of globally traded food that is consumed in the United States. In our vision of the future, we do not see third-party audits replacing public oversight, but rather helping us ensure that we make the best, most efficient use of both public and private resources to produce a safe food supply."
Editor's note: Ray is the director of the Agricultural Policy Analysis Center at the University of Tennessee. Schaffer is a research assistant professor at APAC.

What's Happening After opening the 2007-8 season on the road last week the Boise State University swimming and diving team returns home to host conference foe, San Jose State., Friday and Saturday, at the West YMCA in Boise, Idaho.
The Teams - The Spartans are 1-2 in dual meets heading into Friday's meet, with losses to Stanford (105-164) and UC Davis (132-166). Their only win of the season came against UC Santa Cruz, as they beat the Banana Slugs 227-60. San Jose State will travel 17 swimmers and a diver to the competition.
Last Time Out The Broncos had an incredible start to the 2007-08 season as they broke several school records against Colorado State, before going 2-1 in dual meets at the Air Force Invitational. The Broncos earned victories over Colorado School of Mines (196-42) and Air Force (159-83). The Broncos only loss came to Denver, with a score of 62-180.
Leading the way for the Broncos was freshman Tara Hahto, as she took the individual title in the 200 breaststroke, out-swimming her competition by nearly two seconds in her first collegiate swim meet against Colorado State. Hahto's hot streak continued as she finished second in the 100 breaststroke (1:07.75) and took third in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:16.01 at the Air Force Invitational.
The strongest race at the Air Force Invitiational came from freshman Nathalie Rohling, who swam a 54.97 in the 100 free to earn a third place finish in the event. Teammates Allison Hall, Denise Green and Jenny Nowatzke also notched third place finishes, as Hall swam a 59.93 in the 100 butterfly, while Green recorded a time of 1:02.31 in the 100 backstroke, and Nowatzke Jenny Nowatzke notched a time of 25.09 in the 50 freestyle.
As a team, the Broncos were outstanding against Colorado State as they finished second in the 400 medley relay with a team comprised entirely by freshmen. While at the Air Force Invite, Boise State performed extremely well in their relay events as it broke school records in both the 200 medley and 200 free. The Broncos kept pace with Denver throughout the 200 free, but in the end were out touched by the Pioneers giving them a second place finish in the event with a time of 1:41.52. They also garnered a second place finish in the 200 medley with a time of 1:51.78.

Incumbents in the state have an advantage. But it is difficult to use the results to cull out statewide or nationwide trends.
The results of the recently held bypolls have led many to ask whether the honeymoon period for the BJP is over and if the "Modi magic" no longer works for the party. The BJP lost the by-elections to all three seats in the Uttarakhand assembly. The grand alliance of the JD(U), RJD, and Congress won six out of 10 seats in Bihar, where the BJP-led alliance was expected to win big, given its recent performance in the Lok Sabha elections. Similarly, the BJP had to cede an assembly seat in Madhya Pradesh and in Karnataka, the party could retain only one of its two seats and lost its stronghold of Bellary Rural.
What do the results of by-elections signify? In many parts of the world, by-election results are seen as a referendum on the performance of the incumbent government. While there may be some truth to the claim about declining popularity of the BJP government, an analysis of by-election results since 1967 in India suggests that by-election results are not an indicator of incumbency sentiments. The by-election for an assembly or parliamentary seat happens due to three reasons: vacancy due to the resignation of a sitting member, vacancy due to the death of a sitting member, and vacancy due to the disqualification (or void due to a similar reason) of a member.
We analysed 1,100 by-elections for assembly seats and 213 by-elections for parliamentary seats that took place between 1967 and 2012 and found that the incumbent party in the state is more likely to win these seats than the incumbent party at the national level. The data presented in the table show that when incumbent parties in the state and at the Centre are different, the incumbent party in the state is twice as likely to win a bypoll seat. But when the incumbent party in the state and at the Centre is the same, the party is more likely to win the by-election seat than its competitor. These data make clear that the odds of the Congress doing well in Uttarakhand and Karnataka, and the JD(U) and its allies in Bihar, as ruling parties, …continued »

So you might be interested to know that RHS has also worked the same magic for the small block Ford. The Pro elite ford head is constructed from aluminum and is designed for circle track and drag racing applications. It features intake runners sized at either 205 or 221 cc's and 79 cc exhaust runners. The chambers are sized at 62 cc's each and the seats arrived already cut to fit 2.080/1.625 diamter intake and exhaust valves.

IUCN Documents
IUCN wants governments to recognize that managing nature better helps people adapt to the impacts of climate change and can actually reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Union is promoting the inclusion of nature-based solutions to adaptation and mitigation, focusing on two key elements it wants to see adopted in the post-2012 UNFCCC climate change framework:¨
- Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) - the use of ecosystem conservation, management and restoration to help people adapt to the impacts of climate change.
- An equitable and sustainable Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation in developing countries (REDD) mechanism.

Recently there have been accusations Greg Hunt (@GregHuntMP) & other Liberal Party MPs have been utilising small spam bot armies to game twitters ranking & trending system for their own benefit. I too jumped on that bandwagon, incorrectly tweeting that there were "damning revelations" that Hunt was buying followers & retweets. For this, I do apologise to Greg Hunt, & I figured the best I could do was write this article.
I sought clarification from Greg Hunt & received a prompt reply denying that he had engaged spammers to prop up tweets & his follower numbers. To be honest, I believe him. In the not too distant past, Mark Colvin (@Colvinius) has been the subject of a 20 000 spam follower "attack" of sorts, which not only was annoying, created uncertainty about Mark's ethics, but cost Mark money to deal with.
So why does this happen? If Hunt is to be believed, which I do, neither Hunt or his office engaged spam bot sellers, which rules out the first reason this has happened: personal gain. The second reason you may be followed by a large number of spammers is someone, without your consent, has engaged spam bot sellers to prop your tweets & followers up, as Asher Moses put it, to increase the "virality" of a post. The last reason, as with Mark Colvin's example, is to discredit the person whom the bots attach themselves.
Now that we have the basics covered, I'll look a bit more into why these bots may have attached themselves to Greg Hunt's account.
If Hunt did engage spam bot sellers to prop up his followers & tweets, the immediate effect would be minimal, however, over time social media analytics like Klout, Kred & PeerIndex would start to show a higher level of influence for Hunt. This may not seem relevant, however it would give weight to opinions posited by Hunt in the social media sphere. In the long term it would ensure that tweets from Hunt would feature as top tweets & trend a lot more often. Knowing how the trend systems work on twitter, gaming them is quite easy given a bot army at your disposal.
If it was an outside activist group (such as Menzies House, who I refuse to link to) organising the spam bot sellers, the outcome is the same as Hunt directly engaging said spammers. It's all about gaming the system & increasing influence of Hunt on social media. There are definitely those in activist groups that support the Liberal party who are unethical enough to attempt something like this, & far enough removed for the fallout not to tarnish Hunt.
The final reason for doing this, to discredit Hunt, would make this a poor attempt. The bot army was small enough to not be noticed at all over the last month. If anything, this option is the least likely as there is only, according to Hunt, "one out of 1000 tweets has been retweeted widely using what I now know to be called a tweet bot".
I, personally, think the bigger story here is that many of the spam bots aren't just retweeting & following Greg Hunt, but many of the members of climate denial, anti-ALP/Green trolls that frequent #auspol. These bots do, from time to time, retweet random tweets with trending hashtags, however there seems to be a constant stream of LNP hate speech troll tweets being retweeted by these bots. Many of the people being retweeted have been using the #auspol hashtag, & trolling it, since after the 2010 election. The language has changed from "election now" to patently false & defamatory speech.
While I'm no anti-troll campaigner, it does become frustrating when both trolls & their spam bot armies take over a hashtag. Real information & news reports are relegated to the bottom of the pile, so to speak, & hateful propaganda becomes featured posts. If these activist groups are engaging in spammers to further their cause, it removes any legitimacy they may have had in the past.
I accept Greg Hunt's explanation of what has happened & remind people of influence to keep their twitter accounts clear of spammers, not just so you don't look like you're padding your followers/retweets, but also as part of the constant fight against spamming that requires a collective effort from EVERYONE with a twitter account.
The end result of all this will never be finding out who did what, we are, after all, talking about 3rd parties engaging with criminal organisations to influence social media. At best we can hope to fire a warning shot across politicians & activist groups' bows not to attempt this kind of political campaigning. What we don't want happening is it getting to the level of Newt Gingrich back in 2011.
There will always be those who wish to influence the many by using nefarious methods.
To keep the record straight, I'd like to thank @geeksrulz & the many anonymous sources who've helped me with this post. You can read @geeksrulz Storify investigation here: The Desperation of a Liberal MP? The Russian spambots.
Here's the email Greg Hunt replied with when I requested information:
Dear Kieran,
Many thanks for your message.
Actually we have seen the report that one out of 1000 tweets has been retweeted widely using what I now know to be called a tweet bot. I want to reaffirm that as far as we are aware of over 1000 tweets, one has been subject to an unknown source retweeting from overseas accounts. We were not aware of this until we read this today.
Unfortunately we have no way of knowing by whom, why or under what circumstances.
In terms of your other questions:
- I take responsibility for my account. However the office does screen for and reject obvious fake users or trolls.
- If you could identify any fake accounts and verify this we will immediately take action to have them deleted from the followers list. Of course the nature of twitter is that it is difficult to identify users.
- No I have never paid for retweeting.
- No I do not have any links to MenziesHouse.
I would particularly note that of the over 1000 tweets I have issued, there has been just one that has been subject to a significant retweeting from some overseas source. This has occurred without my knowledge, control or consent. If you are writing I would assume that you would point out this fundamental point that such retweeting has only happened to 1 of 1000+ tweets.
Greg Hunt
Greg has responded to my article, cheers:
@sortius we have differed on many issues, but I appreciate the honourable way in which you have clarified a false and vaguely weird story

UTSA College of Liberal and Fine Arts opens Italy study-abroad program
(Dec. 20, 2011) -- The UTSA College of Liberal and Fine Arts (COLFA) will host the inaugural Semester Abroad in Urbino program in January. Nine students have signed up to participate in the 13-week study-abroad trip to Italy.
For a preview of the experience, the students participated in a Skype interview with UTSA College of Architecture students already studying in Italy. Both colleges are partnering with the University of Urbino to offer international educational opportunities for their students this academic year.
COLFA students will receive instruction from both UTSA COLFA faculty and University of Urbino professors on a variety of subjects including Italian language instruction, Shakespeare's England and Italy, love and death in the Italian Renaissance, and classic foundations of the Renaissance.
Bridget Drinka, associate professor and chair of the UTSA Department of English, and Marita Nummikoski, associate professor and chair in the UTSA Department of Modern Languages, helped organize the program.
"We have some wonderful trips designed in the program as well, so the students will read the plays, then go to the places where they took place, like Verona, Venice and Rome," said Drinka. "I hope the students get enrichment and exposure to another point of view as well as a deeper understanding of the language."
The program is available for both undergraduate and graduate students who have taken humanities courses in Italian or are just beginning to study the language. Half of the students in the initial group have studied Italian.
"Many of our students have never really been anywhere outside of the United States, so once they're eyes are opened, their entire view of the world will be changed," said Nummikoski. "They will realize that there is so much more to life than just San Antonio and Texas. Traveling abroad is not hard or scary and this will make them strong individuals that can come back and share their experiences with others."
Additional UTSA faculty participating include Bernadette Andrea, professor of English; Molly Saldivar, lecturer in modern languages and literatures; David Johnson, professor of history; and Bill Short, assistant professor of philosophy.
To alleviate some of expenses involved with the study-abroad program, the students received funding from the Provost's Travel Award. Two of the participants also received Bowen scholarships designated to COLFA students studying in Europe. Program fees cover expenses for a private dorm room, 10 meals per week plus breakfast every day and trips.For more information, email co-organizers Bridget Drinka or Marita Nummikoski or visit the COLFA Semester in Urbino website.

Invasive pathogen threatens bird-pine mutualism: Implications for sustaining a high-elevation ecosystem
McKinney, Shawn T.; Fiedler, Carl E.; Tomback, Diana F. 2009. Invasive pathogen threatens bird-pine mutualism: Implications for sustaining a high-elevation ecosystem. Ecological Applications. 19(3): 597-607.
Human-caused disruptions to seed-dispersal mutualisms increase the extinction risk for both plant and animal species. Large-seeded plants can be particularly vulnerable due to highly specialized dispersal systems and no compensatory regeneration mechanisms. Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis), a keystone subalpine species, obligately depends upon the Clark's Nutcracker (Nucifraga columbiana) for dispersal of its large, wingless seeds. Clark's Nutcracker, a facultative mutualist with whitebark pine, is sensitive to rates of energy gain, and emigrates from subalpine forests during periods of cone shortages. The invasive fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola, which causes white pine blister rust, reduces whitebark pine cone production by killing cone-bearing branches and trees. Mortality from blister rust reaches 90% or higher in some whitebark pine forests in the Northern Rocky Mountains, USA, and the rust now occurs nearly rangewide in whitebark pine. Our objectives were to identify the minimum level of cone production necessary to elicit seed dispersal by nutcrackers and to determine how cone production is influenced by forest structure and health.
Keywords: Clark's Nutcracker, cone-production threshold, Cronartium ribicola, forest decline, mutualism disruption, Northern Rocky Mountains USA, Nucifraga columbiana, Pinus albicaulis, restoration, seed dispersal, white pine blister rust, whitebark pine

Liverpool managing director Ian Ayre is confident the club have made the right decision in choosing to redevelop Anfield ahead of building a new stadium.
While a new ground in Stanley Park would provide the required 60,000-seat capacity as well as increased hospitality opportunities and state-of-the-art facilities, its cost - estimated at over £300million - is prohibitive.
"The right solution is one that is sustainable and is in the long-term interests of Liverpool Football Club," Ayre said. "It's great that it is hopefully Anfield because I think that's what the majority of our fans want. There are still some steps to take, but we're confident they're the right ones."

Box Score
HUNTSVILLE - Sam Houston State opened the second half 12-of-14 from the field Saturday afternoon at Johnson Coliseum to propel the Bearkats to a dominating 78-40 victory over Lamar in Southland Conference men's basketball action.
The Cardinals were already down 31-20 at the break before Sam Houston opened the second half on a 19-2 run to build a 50-22 lead that proved to be insurmountable. Lamar, which will have a week off before hosting McNeese State on Saturday, fell to 3-21 on the year and 1-11 in the Southland.
"That's probably the worst second half we've played all year," said LU head coach Pat Knight. "I thought in the first half, we played hard and competed but just couldn't hit any shots. We just came out in the second half and had a lot of turnovers and it just went downhill from there.
"They jumped on us and we just didn't fight back. We turned the ball over too much and started taking some quick shots. When you turn the ball over 20 times and only shoot 30 percent, you're not going to win many games."
LU committed 12 of its 20 turnovers in the second half and the Bearkats converted the Cards' second half miscues into 20 points. Sam Houston (13-10 overall, 6-5 in the Southland) would shoot 65.5 percent from the floor over the final 20 minutes, including 7-of-11 aim from 3-point range.
Paul Baxter opened the second half with a trey just nine seconds in. Amos Wilson, who was one of two Cardinals to finish with 11 points, hit a layup nine seconds later but it would be Lamar's last points until Hondo Webb made a pair of free throws with 13:48 showing on the clock.
The Bearkats' lead ballooned to 40 points with five and a half minutes to play on an Aaron Harwell layup that made the score 73-33. Lamar would score seven of the final 12 points but it did not keep the Bearkats from handing the Cardinals their largest defeat in the 56-game series between the two schools.
Webb came off the LU bench to score a career-high 11 points, adding six rebounds and three blocked shots. Senior forward Stan Brown, who scored 22 points at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Thursday, finished with eight points and a team-high nine rebounds.
Four Bearkats scored at least 10 points with junior guard Will Bond hitting four 3-pointers off the bench to lead the way with 12 points. Junior forward Nathaniel Mason went 5-of-6 from the floor and scored 11 points off the bench as Sam Houston got 43 points from its reserves.
Junior forward Terrance Motley scored 10 points and led all players with 11 rebounds for the double-double and Darius Gatson added 10 points and four of the Bearkats' 12 steals.
Lamar never led in the game and the Bearkats' lead reached 16 with three and a half to play before halftime as a Nathaniel Mason dunk made the score 30-14.
The Cardinals closed the half on a 6-1 run which included a half-court pass from Webb to Wilson for a layup at the buzzer.
Lamar will have a week off before hosting McNeese State next Saturday at 6:30 p.m. The Cardinals will be unveiling their 2012 Southland Conference Tournament championship banner and NCAA Tournament banner prior to tipoff.
