New Bikes, and Old Memories
For the last several years I have been dreaming about a bike I owned when I was young and thin.
I loved this bike, but it was taken to that junkyard in the sky way to prematurely when a drunk hit me from behind. I was not seriously hurt, and I was still enamored of my baby, and maybe that is why I never stopped wanting another one.
About 9 months ago I started looking for one in decent shape. I searched the web, and scoured E-bay, and missed out on several for various reasons.
Finally, last weekend I found one on E-bay, and won it at a reasonable price.
When I was 22 I was riding a new Honda Shadow 500, and thought life was good. Then I met a guy in my military unit with a new 82 Yamaha Seca Turbo 650. One ride and I was hooked. I immediately traded in my cruiser for the hottest sport bike around at the time. I got a great deal on a leftover 82 in 83, and got $1500 off.
They were all over the magazines, and had a seriously futuristic look. For a single guy in Panama City Florida, there was no better bike.
I took it to two Bike Weeks in Daytona, and put many thousands of miles on it. Hell, I didn't even own a car for a year of riding it. It was an incredible bike, and what a rush to ride.
But all things come to an end, and this one came far to early.
So I promised myself another one day, but life, family, and other things conspired to stop me. That is, until, last weekend!
Unfortunately it was near Columbus Ohio, and I was in upstate New York all week.
Fortunately Tina worked her butt off, and arranged to borrow Ray's (Raysuf) truck. (What a guy, he lends me his truck for the weekend, and allows me to put nearly 1000 miles on it. Thanks RAY!!!!)
Anyhow, the plan was to fly home on Friday afternoon, jump in the truck, and drive to Ohio, 450 miles, then get a hotel and pick up the bike in the morning.
Of course, as is usually the case, weather and broken planes resulted in my missing my connection by only 5 minutes, and them my rescheduled flight was 3 hours delayed. I didn't get into DC until after 8 PM.
Interestingly, as I was waiting for my flights, I picked up a Cycle World magazine, and can you imagine my surprise when inside the pages was a note about the cover 25 years ago and my Seca Turbo listed right there. Very bizarre, and very cool! I actually had/have that magazine still from way back then.
More irony, the $1500 I saved from my original new Turbo, I spent for this old one exactly.
We decided to scrap the idea of leaving that night, and instead leave at 5 AM Saturday.
Fortunately the roads were clear, and the weather cooperated, and we made the 450 miles in just 6 hours. Ray's truck got 23mpg even. Not bad.
What was bad, was his truck threw the power steering belt a couple miles from our destination. Let me tell you, that truck is a total pig without a power steering belt. We limped in and picked up the bike from the owner. A very nice guy with several other bikes.
Bonus! He had already changed the plugs, oil, FD oil, and put new brake pads on it.
The bad part was he lived half a mile down a rough dirt road, so I didn't get a chance to test ride it. I was not comfortable doing it on a bike with no front brake, leaky fork seals had contaminated the brake pads, especially on an unfamiliar bike on rough roads.
So we loaded it up on Ray's truck, paid the man, and drove off to find an auto parts store. Fortunately there was one a few miles away, and we got a new belt for cheap. Took longer to get the clerk to look it up than it did to change it.
Side note, Ray's truck had a squealing belt, and a brake failure indicator (but good brakes) when we picked it up, so Tina had her coworker take it over for repairs. They added some fluid, and changed the belt, with the wrong belt. So it lasted 420 miles and came off in chunks. We figured fixing these things was the very least we could do for Ray for lending us his truck.
Anyhow, we decided to haul butt home. We stopped a few hours later and took these shots:
I was tempted to throw on a helmet and ride like this for a while!
We arrived home at 10:30, tired, but happy to be home.
The next day we drove over to Coleman's and used their ramp to unload the bike, then I rode it home.
My first ride.
Memories flashed back, and the rush as the turbo kicks in is as impressive as ever, despite many "faster" bikes I have owned since then.
It runs great, and only needs fork seals now that I cleaned up the brake pads and rotors.
It looks great from 5 feet. Not bad up close either.
How can you go wrong with only 8500 miles on it? I added 50 today, but was cautious since I was using a "borrowed" plate. :oops:
Since I had it out, I figured a stable shot was in order.
The Turbo, 80 BMW R65, 05 BMW R1200GS, and an 05 BMW R1200ST (technically my GF's bike).
I have to admit, the modern bikes are faster, have better brakes, handle better, and are more comfortable. BUT, I bet I put a LOT of miles on the Turbo. What a fun little bike, and awesome for WV weekends!

I saw one in the Mission, S.F. on Thursday or Friday. I read about a guy who made one into a 900 using Seca 900 parts. He said it was fast. Looks like you got a good deal.

IIRC, those bikes needed fork seals from the factory-practically a comsumable item.
Very cool bike though, I test rode one and loved that turbo rush of lust. The handling was '80's spooky, but maybe it was those fork seals.

Most all of the dozen bikes I have owned were very reliable, but my 82 Yamaha Xj650LJ Seca Turbo had a nasty habbit of puking gas through the carbs, into the crankcase vent and into the oil. Not unusual to find a half a gallon of gas in the oil.
A little update...
You get in the habit of checking under the petcock for gas, and looking to make sure the oil sight glass is not full, indicating gas intrusion.
A glutton for punishment, I have also owned 5 BMWs , I purchassed another Turbo last year with only 8500 miles on it. It ran great for 50 miles, then puked gas into the oil again.
None the less, a carb rebuild, the pressurized carbs are the only factory turbo system like it, oil change twice, and 1000 miles later it runs like a dream.
I have also changed the original tires for Pirelli Sport Demons, added Speigler SS brake lines, new fork seals, and fuel filter. But hey, it's a 26 year old bike, and I love to ride it, so maintenance is the price.
I also let my brother use it to practice on when learning to ride.
But I am not dumb, I used some old plastics from a wreck, and added frame sliders. Fortunately in 800 miles he did not drop it once. He saved that for a week after he got his own bike, a 750 Nighthawk!
Point of my rambling is, just because they are a pain to maintain, doesn't mean you have to throw it away!
PS Of the 3000 total Yamaha Turbos made it is estimated that less than 1000 are left, and less than 500 running. I currently own 2 and have direct experience with 4 wrecked ones.

Yes I know this is an ancient thread.
The deal with the fuel getting into the oil is a direct result of the little spring-loaded check valve that sits between the carbs. The little o-ring in there gets nasty quite quickly, hardens up, and stops sealing which allows the pressurized gas to flow through.
I used to replace this o-ring virtually every Spring (when I ended up needing to clean the carbs anyway)

I'm sorry but I don't. I sold my Turbo a few years ago and all the manuals, etc that went with it. Basically if you follow the fuel hose from the pump to where it enters the common rail for the carburetors you'll see a little metal valve that just has an inlet and an outlet with a short length of hose connecting it to the carbs. 3 screws hold it together. If you undo the screws you'll find an aluminum piston with an o-ring on one end and a spring on the other. The o-ring is what get's screwed up; I've made the mistake of installing an o-ring that's too small and it leaks a lot; I used to have an large o-ring assortment so I just grabbed the next size up and it worked fine, not sure of the size though.
I purchased a new valve at one time before I learned about the whole o-ring thing and it worked until the next Spring, that's when I took it apart and figured it out. If I still have the old valve housing at home I'll take a pic and post it up, at least you'll know what you're looking for.

Congrats Jim, really cool bike! The Seca didn't happen to be styled by Hans Muth (sp?) did it? I think he styled your R65, and for some reason it's sticking in my head that he did the Seca Turbo as well. In looking at them side-by-side in your picture you I can see some similarities.
Between your new 'old' bike, and the CBX thread, I'm starting to get interesting in older 80's japanese superbikes, like one of those, an early CBR or VFR. This is not a good sign for me!

I love the old bikes for the very different feel, kind of nostalgic, that they have. The brakes are weakm the power low, the handling "exciting", but they sure are fun!

Just wanted to send a message of thanks to those who posted about the carb solutions in #5 and #7 above. I just bought an '82 Seca 650 Turbo in white, and it was puking gas. I'm just ready to reassemble the bike after replacing the o-ring in the pressure check valve. The old one seems a little hard, but not that bad. Hope this fixes my problem.

I've got a 1981 Yamaha RD350LC sitting in a shed that I haven't looked at for 5 years. It was bought in Canada and raced in lightweight production as a bit of a cheater since it pre-dated the RZ350 by a couple of years. I bought it for $1 and campaigned it for a couple of years in the mid-80s. I then converted back to a streetbike and managed to get a title for it (that I can't find...) and rode it for a couple more years. It's pretty rough. Has been crashed many times. Still straight though. Not sure what, if anything, I could do with it as parts are non-existent (in the USA, at least). It could be a cool resto if I could figure out how to get the engine rebuilt.
Stock pic. Mine is not this pretty...

Gun laws and human nature
In 1983 when President Reagan ordered the deployment of missiles in Europe as part of his "peace through strength" strategy to counter the Soviet Union, the very liberal town of Takoma Park, Md., declared itself a "nuclear free zone." City officials passed an ordinance known as The Takoma Park Nuclear Free Zone Act, which said, "…work on nuclear weapons is prohibited within the city limits…"
If North Korea follows through on its threat to nuke the United States (or had Russia in the '80s launched a nuclear attack), Takoma Park would not be "nuclear free" for long, but the ordinance made some people feel as though they were doing something constructive, something meaningful, about the nuclear threat, and wasn't that their point?
Today, the Democratic governors of Connecticut and Maryland, who must be seen to be doing something important about gun violence, are congratulating themselves for passing some of the "toughest" gun laws in the nation. These states already have tough gun laws, which in the case of the Newtown shooting last December did not deter Adam Lanza from grabbing his mother's legal weapons, murdering her and then killing 26 people, most of them children. Tough gun laws in Maryland have not deterred the mentally ill or criminally minded intent on getting guns, especially in Baltimore and Prince George's County, where reports of gun crimes often lead each night's local newscast.
Downplayed in this national debate and in efforts by the Obama administration to get Congress to pass "tougher" federal gun restrictions is a conversation about human nature, including better laws that allow for involuntary commitment or mandatory treatment of the mentally ill and tougher sentencing for criminals. But if laws alone were effective in regulating criminal behavior, prisons would be empty.
Life has become cheap and things are now expensive, but I remember when the reverse was true. Today, we seem to value stuff more than human life, which is why public storage units are full. Many began losing their moral compass years ago when "anything goes" began to replace a respect for the law and other people.
Authorities in Connecticut have revealed that Lanza spent a lot of time researching potential targets before his murderous rampage. He picked Sandy Hook Elementary, we're told, because it appeared to him to be an undefended soft target. The question that should suggest itself is this: Suppose Lanza knew Sandy Hook had an armed guard and other security measures? If that were the case, he might well have gone elsewhere, or not committed his evil acts at all.
The new "tougher" gun laws in Maryland and Connecticut appear to be the result of high emotion, not logic and clear thinking. We all ache for the parents and loved ones of the Sandy Hook victims, but the Newtown tragedy shouldn't be used as a prop for anti-gun proponents, the most extreme of which want to register or ban all weapons, except those for police and certain security people. What will more gun laws really accomplish? Will they keep one criminal bent on carnage from a single school door?
In 1995, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), a leading force in the failed 1994 assaults weapon ban, told CBS' "60 Minutes" that: "If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States, for an outright ban, picking up (every gun) … Mr. and Mrs. America, turn 'em all in. I would have done it." Then what? Do we ban knives next? No law, no ban, no restriction will ever stop evil.
What will happen in Connecticut and Maryland when there is another shooting at an undefended target? Will politicians call for even "tougher" gun laws? There is much debate and anecdotal evidence about whether concealed carry laws deter criminals, but logic would seem to suggest they do. Isn't that why many homes have burglar alarms and security systems, as well as guns? If a burglar knows a home is defended doesn't logic suggest he might try a house that is unprotected?
Guns can never be completely outlawed, and human nature can't be changed by politicians. More laws aren't the answer. Perhaps, as the old saying goes, "The best defense is a good offense."

About the Designer
Franco Albini Italy (1905 - 1977)
Franco Albini studied architecture at the Milan Polytechnic school, where he obtained his diploma in 1929. Still being a student, Albini assisted Gio Ponti in his studio. Ponti's influence becomes obvious in Franco Albini's early designs in the Art d?co style. In 1930 Franco Albini opened his own studio for interior design and decoration. After the war, Franco Albini worked as an architect, too. In 1930 Franco Albini participated in the Monza Triennale where he showed his furniture designs. At the 1936 Milan Triennale, Franco Albini presented progressive designs for a rational layout for small rooms, called "stanza per un uomo" (one-man room). Albini designed a tiny room, in which each element fulfilled one or more functions: a tabletop is integrated in a shelving system, the ladder leading up to the loft bed also functions as a clothes stand, and the bed itself is a partition for the room. In 1941 Franco Albini designed a transparent radio (however, it was never produced). Franco Albini's most popular designs were done in the 1950s. The most famous ones were his designs for shelves and chairs, produced by Cassina and especially by Poggi. The shelves are easy to disassemble and can be expanded without restriction. The shelves have no back board as they are either clamped between the floor and the ceiling or suspended on the ceiling on metal chains. This construction then functions as a transparent room partition. In 1951 Franco Albini created his rattan chair "Margherita". From 1952 the designer and architect Franca Helg was Franco Albini's business partner; she played a crucial role in numerous Albini designs. As an architect, Franco Albini built housing estates in Milan and in 1957; he designed the building for the La Rinascente department store in Rome. Together with Franca Helg and Bob Noorda, Franco Albini also designed underground stations in Milan. From 1963 to 1977 Franco Albini taught at the Polytechnic school in Milan. Antonio Piva was Franco Albini's business partner.

With games like he had Friday night against the Toronto Raptors filled with clutch shot after clutch shot he likely has nothing to worry about (but LeBron might want to start worrying about that MVP he thought he was going to win...).The man clearly has no fear when he is on the court. Opponents have to be wondering what in the world they need to do to stop him.

40 year old woman | Pleasanton, CA, USA | Seeking men 35-47 within 50 miles
WARNING: Read before use. May cause blushing, smiling, strong emotional waves, warm feeling in your heart, and long term happiness.
One. Of. A. Kind I figure that we have free will yet there is a reason for everything. Its all a chain reaction. I guess what you decide to do with the circumstances you are given is the main essence of life. I'm not scared because everything always come together if you stay strong . Strength is to cry when you are sad but wipe your tears and push on. Don't shut people out of your life. Your friends and family will be there to make you smile and laugh. Enjoy every moment of everyday and learn from your mistakes. Sometimes your mistakes aren't really mistakes at all but lessons along to road to finding happiness. I am extremely feminine in all senses of the word. I am very girly, easy to talk to. I am known for my candid humor, especially. I am intensely passionate, enraptured by everything that is associated to fashion, art, film, dance music. I love.."Love".. I am comfortable in my own skin I like making a man feel comfortable in his. I adore elegance all beauty that it facets. My Motto: When words escape you.. There is a time to speak, there are times to listen..there are times when only your eyes should speak what the heart cannot say. What I am looking for; is that one true love that makes you not only weak in the knees, but that makes your heart hurt when they are not around. ALSO, SO IMPORTANT: INTEGRITY AND HONESTY. Unfortunately, a lot of people claim it, yet they truly don't practice it. The basics: I am spontanious very easy going mellow, done with partying a lot Not here for a game, not here to just look around. I am 39 years old now, just want to meet that soul mate as cliche as that sounds. I enjoy many many things from going to the movies to traveling. Being out on the water, snowboarding, nice dinners out, home cooked meals sitting infront of a fire. I am the kind of person that will do anything and everything for the one's I care about. I am not affraid to love with all my heart but also not willing to settle. I sometimes can be aggresive in going after what I want and knowing what I want very fast. I have lived a full life and have learned many things from my successes and my failures. I am over the arrogent cocky attitudes a lot of people seem to have. I am sarcastic and can give as much as I can take. I rarely get very mad. I believe communicating negative and positive avoids so many issues. I know that a real true loving relationship will have both its ups and downs. I want to be invovled in my significant others life just as much as they will be involved in mine. I want to be/ feel significant when with someone, as I will give the same back. What I am not looking for is some hook up or someone who don't know where they are in life. So I think that is enough rambeling about me. I look forward to talking with you, as the responses have been overwhelming! I also hope each and everyone of you to find that right person and have blessed, happy lives. SideNote: Random things that I like, VERY MUCH! 1. My sonic tooth brush 2. Glade plugins--the house has to smell good! 3. High heel shoes 4. Lipstick 5. Excersice 6. Love 7. Clean/neat house 8. A man in a white tee, nice jeans, and nice shoes. I also appreciate a man in a suit ;) 9. My long black hair!

Dinning out, movies, theater, weekend getaways, wine tasting( I do like sweet white wine) Hanging out with friends, but way over the endless nights of partying, way too old for that.
I like going out, spending time with family and friends. If I decide to stay in, then it's a movie and cuddling night in front of the fire place with a special someone. I try to live a healthy life style and enjoy anything outdoors.
I mostly read stuff related to my work. Aside from reading, recently, I have been interested in Wakeboarding. So, if you are willing to teach, then I am your girl ;)

PSN and online features available to you on 2.02 without updating
Who wants to go online and download some new updates to their games? or play on PSN? and keep your exploit running? I know I do so the people over at Wololo.net has found out that you can go on PSN without updating to the newest firmware by using a proxy server.
Only thing IS that you will need a computer and have It kept on and you will need to connect through WiFi (this may or may not be possible through Mobile Network update soon to come on that one) So this will allow you to do all that you want to as If you updated except of course the wonderful update of nothing.
Note: Just to clear some confusion; you can use Vita FTP or any internet connection within the PSP Emu without doing this as using the internet (as long as you do not attempt to access PSN) does not attempt to make you update. This guide will help you access PSN and it's features.
1.Download the psp2-updatelist.xml for your specific region: Japan, United Kingdom, United States, Europe. Save this file to an area that is easy to remember and easily accessible (Desktop for example).
2.(Optional) Rename the file to "psp2-updatelist.xml" (without the quotation marks).
3.Download and install Charles Proxy.
4.Obtain your IP Address. To do this:
•Windows: Start -> Run -> CMD -> ipconfig. IPv4 Address is what you need.
•Linux: Use the command line "$ /sbin/ifconfig" (without quotation marks).
•Mac: Apple Icon -> System Preferences -> Network.
5.(optional) If you do not have a working WiFi connection then create one on the Vita then move on to step 6. If you already have a working WiFi connection move on to the next step.
6.Open the Advanced Settings on your WiFi connection. Scroll down and select Use Proxy Server then enter your IP Address and the port "8888" (without the quotation marks).
7.Start Charles Proxy on your Computer.
8.Restart your PS Vita and connect to the internet. The best method for doing this is by using Connection Test (Settings -> Network -> Internet Connection Test).
9.Charles Proxy should locate "http://fxx01.psp2.update.playstation.net/" and ask whether or not to accept this connection. Click Accept.
10.Navigate to psp2-updatelist.xml (as pictured below):
11.Right click on psp2-updatelist.xml
12.Select Map Local. Under Local Path select the file you downloaded in step 1 then save and close.
13.Right click on psp2-updatelist.xml again and select Edit.
14.Select the Query String tab. Click on Add.
15.Under the Name type in "var" and under Value type in "02050000" Note: This is for the current Firmware and will have to be modified with the next Firmware update. It will look something like this (ignore the sid):

37 year old woman | Cathedral, NY, USA | Seeking men 31-40 within 15 miles of New York, NY
Live a little.
I'm a creative, fun-loving woman who is constantly seeking experiences that provide passion and joy. At the same time, I seek balance from the relationships in my life. I have a variety of groups of friends in the city that provide a sense of stability. Because I am quite a distance from my family and hometown, my close friends are very important to me. I have many interests and sometimes it is difficult for me to make a decision because I don't want to miss an opportunity. I'm looking for someone with a great sense of humor who is supportive and down to earth. I am not looking for a fling or a "casual" relationship. I respect the choice, but please do not contact me if this is what you are looking for in your own dating life.

New York City is the love of my life, but I'm originally from the Midwest. I travel back to Iowa as much as I can, but dream of opportunities that take me to new places.
I love things that make me laugh. My passion is theatre and music, but I am always looking for something or someone that offers a different perspective on life. I seek out people with a zest for life and that are genuine.
I spend a lot of my time in the creative field- dancing, music and theatre are my life- but I am always looking for something outside of that comfort zone. I enjoy going out and socializing, but am also content with staying and relaxing.

California Crunch
Slow start for Syracuse's Anaheim-era AHL team
By Russ Tarby
In its first two games as the top farm club of the NHL's Anaheim Ducks, the Syracuse Crunch lost twice by the narrowest of margins to the Lake Erie Monsters.
For the past decade the Crunch were affiliated with the Columbus Bluejackets whose AHL players now skate for the Springfield Falcons in Massachusetts. The Monsters are Colorado Avalanche farmhands.
After losing 3-2 on Friday, Oct. 8, at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, the new Crunch players were welcomed to the Onondaga County War Memorial by a raucous Saturday-night sell-out crowd of 6,342.
The team seemed to feed off the fans' excitement, throwing bruising body checks and skating hard, but defensive lapses allowed the Monsters 40 shots on goal while the offense mustered just 18 shots at the other end of the ice.
Thanks to goalie J.P. Levasseur's 39-save performance, however, Lake Erie was held to a single goal, as the Crunch earned a point in a 2-1 shootout loss.
That's right, the home team lost each of its first two games by one goal each.
On Saturday here, Monsters' center Julian Talbot hit the net late in the second period before Crunch center Maxime Macenauer tied the game early in the third. On a man-advantage power play, Macenaur re-directed a Stu Bickel pass from the left point past Lake Erie goaltender John Grahame to knot the score at 1-1.
Still deadlocked after regulation and overtime, the teams each sent four stick-handlers out to decide the game with a shootout. All four Crunch shooters - Kyle Palmieri, Rob Bordson, Nicolas Deschamps and Trevor Smith - were denied, while Monsters Ben Walter and Kevin Shattenkirk beat Levasseur to nail it.
Friday's game in Cleveland had set the pattern for Saturday. Despite a stellar outing by Crunch goaltender Timo Pielmeier who stopped 35 of 38 shots Friday, Syracuse squandered an early 2-0 lead to finally fall to the Monsters 3-2.

Verizon gaffe lets customer details slip

Protecting cell phone users' privacyJanuary 20, 2006
The Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file was e-mailed on Monday and includes names, e-mail addresses, cell phone numbers and cell phone models of 5,210 Verizon Wireless customers, going by a copy of the file obtained by CNET News.com. All of the customers have Motorola Razr phones, according to the spreadsheet.
The spreadsheet was inadvertently sent to about 1,800 people, all Verizon Wireless subscribers, according to a follow-up e-mail apologizing for the gaffe that the mobile carrier sent on Thursday. The Excel file was attached to an ad for a Bluetooth wireless headset, instead of the electronic order form that was supposed to be sent.
"Verizon Wireless takes the security, confidentiality and integrity of your personal information very seriously, and we deeply regret this error," the company said in the Thursday e-mail. It said that it has already implemented additional quality control procedures and process improvements to prevent a re-occurrence.
A Verizon Wireless representative confirmed the incident, but could not immediately provide specific details when reached Friday afternoon.
The information in the document is limited and does not immediately expose those listed to fraud, the company said in its apology. Yet it recommends that people affected review their bills more carefully and add a password to their account by calling 1-866-861-5096.
While the privacy breach in no way makes identity theft automatic, it helps put a clever fraudster in the starting blocks, said James Van Dyke, the principal analyst at Javelin Strategy & Research in Pleasanton, Calif., which tracks identity fraud.
"To commit ID fraud, you must do several things well. This just makes the job slightly easier," he said. For example, with this list in hand, a fraudster could call the listed numbers, pretend to be a Verizon Wireless representative and ask the subscriber for information to update the account.
One Verizon Wireless customer whose details were included in the file said he was upset about the flap. "Someone just got incredibly careless sending out a sales e-mail," said Frank Donley of Fresno, Calif. "With all the privacy incidents you read about recently, I should feel relieved that my credit card number, Social Security number or some other secure info wasn't released."

- Could'a, should'a...
- Woops, they did it again..! This would be shocking news, if we didn't hear stories like this all the time... "Private data distributed to unauthorized parties! Risk of identity theft rampant!"
Lesson learned here: private businesses and government organizations need to invest in email anti-theft software that secures outbound email... which often contains customer data, employee information and other crucial corporate assets.

- How DOES one just email 5,210 people?
- I'm a Verizon Wireless customer. And I'm wondering how DOES one only just email 5,210 people? I see no apology on VZW's web site acknowledging this mess, either. Perhaps time to get blankety-blank outta Dodge, Marshall Dillon.

- What precautions are being taken?
- The article fails to explain what "additional quality control procedures and process improvements" are being implemented to "prevent a re-occurrence". If this means that the people who accidently attached the database to the email or going to a get a slap on the wrist and a warning that if it ever happens again, it's termination of employment, I would not be satisfied as a Verizon customer. You'd think that after the AOL incident, a red flag would go up to all companies who possess sensitive customer information. Hopefully, some kind of data encryption is being used so that if such documents accidently get attached again, the receivers will not be able to view it. This article provides some pointers for doing just that:

- Bottom line
- Private information should not be in the hands of non-exec employees in the first place. These employees were emailing ads to customers for goodness sake!
It is time for the people to NOT give out social security numbers as a form of identification and it would be much harder to steal a persons ID. It is time for states that use SS# as ID on drivers license to change the policy and use only driver license ID as a form to identify you as a payee.

- responsibility
- The problem here is still security. If a fraudster doesn't have a Social Security Number, but has gotten a hold of other information that a company like Verizon might have (name, address, bank account information), it could still be enough to inflict damage.
It's like saying "businesses should just not use laptops"... truth is, they'll continue using laptops and if not, carelessness will lead to security breaches anyway.
We can only hope that Verizon has learned its lesson (http://www.iwantmyess.com/?p=90) and will implement increased security measures in the email arena.

- Worse!!
- I experienced a worse privacy violation just this week. I received an email from Verizon informing me that my application for a discount program was accepted. Attached to the email was a file that contained my personal data (images of my drivers license and check stub) along with the private data of 25 other people who applied to the discount program. So I'm sure at least 25 people receieved the same file. I contacted the Verizon store that was responsible but I haven't heard from them yet. Next step is contacting the Attorney General.

One sentence using the word geography is, "Geography helps us understand not just the Earth, but also our place on it." Geography is the study of natural features on the Earth's surface, including topography, climate, soil, vegetation, population and more.
Geography attempts to study the features of the Earth and how they affect humans and their interactions. The word can also refer to the specific topographical features of a region, as in "the geography of the United States," or to the features of any complex object, such as "the geography of the brain." The term geography first entered the English language in the 16th century, and derives from the Greek word "ge?graphía," meaning "earth description."
There are five themes of geography.ChaCha

Bill to require teaching of cursive writing in Tennessee en route to governor
NASHVILLE -- The state Senate gave final legislative approval Wednesday to a bill that would require Tennessee public school students be taught how to write in cursive.
It now goes to Gov. Bill Haslam, who's likely to sign it into law.
The bill won 27-0 approval in the Senate, without any discussion or debate. It won House approval last month on an 85-5 vote.
The bill's original text would have required all public schools to teach students cursive writing "so they will be able to legibly write in cursive by the end of the third grade." The House replaced that with wording that directs the state Board of Education to include cursive writing in the course of instruction in all public schools, through state curriculum standards, at the appropriate grade level as determined by the state board.
Penmanship is not currently a mandate across the Shelby County Schools district but rather is a school-level decision and is taught in some schools in third grade, according to district officials.

The Hot List, February 27
Ticketmaster has pulled the wool over the eyes of the consumer for too long, and now Congress is starting to get involved. Ticketmaster angered Bruce Springsteen and his fans after redirecting ticket-buyers for a New Jersey concert to a subsidiary, TicketsNow, which charged a lot more. Service charges are going up, and Ticketmaster couldn't care less. Pray for the planned merger of Live Nation and Ticketmaster to be blocked.
OctoMom, or the mom who everyone knows as the woman who recently gave birth to eight babies, was offered a starring role in a film. The only thing is that this offer came with little makeup, little production value and a whole lot of skin. Who knows if Nadya Suleman will do a porno, but at least someone's offering her a job to feed all those children.
"Slumdog Millionaire" won a lot of Oscars on award night. The film deserved it, and so did a lot of the other actors who received awards. Sean Penn got his second Best Actor Oscar, and Meryl Streep was nominated for a record 15th time. I'm just glad that Brad Pitt didn't punk Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet again.
Megan Fox is single. Megan Fox is single. Megan Fox is single. Church bells rang from the heavens, pigeons were freed into the wild and wine flowed like water. It's party time.
For the people who don't have HBO, its time to subscribe. Danny McBride, from films like "Pineapple Express" and "Foot Fist Way," has his own television show called "Eastbound & Down," about a former professional baseball player relegated to teaching junior high school gym. The show, produced by Will Ferrell, is simply hilarious, and McBride's star shines extremely bright.

Relocated to Orlando metro. We will have to Skype/FaceTime or meet ... I'm not interested in texting forever. No catfish crap ;)
Read me... I'm worth it :) Just looking for a NOT so normal man ... More so... A man motivated and doesn't need to go partying every week, but rather have a real connection with a really interesting and loving smart lady. A man that is in touch with his emotions and knows how to treat a lady, and does it happily because she deserves it. A man that can be a friend (direct, honest, and respectful). A man that can accept LOVE in his life... Watching a movie entangled into each other's arms, traveling to a warm country together, elegant night out, and he has eyes only for me as I only desire to look into his eyes each and every day. A man that send you a text because he simply cares to see how you're doing or calls you cause he loves the sound of your voice. I want that man!!! I deserve that man... I believe in reciprocating in LOVE ... I'm just as giving, loving, caring, and passionate as the one I desire. I'm not shallow but... Just asking for a few things to be in place... 1. Have a decent set of teeth (love a nice smile) 2. Be at least 5'8 (prefer a tree 6'2 or taller... LOL) ... I know you may not be able to help that you're a shortie (I'm one too), but... I'm not really into short men, at all! :(( 3. I'm not on here for a hook up or casual dating. Looking for real companionship that will start with exciting conversations, effort to get to know one another, and eventually leads to an unbreakable friendship/relationship. 4. No picture... No reply back. If you cannot find 3 pics of yourself than I would like to think you have something to hide. 5. I am a sucker for a nerd ... I like to learn whether it be in a classroom, sharing stories, or experiences... I'm a Lifetime student. :) Lastly, I like a traditional man... Charming, protective, intelligent, successful, family-oriented, dotting, passionate about things important to him, and strapping... Handsome! Message me, if you're interested. I like winks too, if you're shy ;) Tyra :)

You know, before that red-headed would-be messiah/destroyer of the world showed up, Cable had another partner. That's right: Wade Wilson -- a.k.a. Deadpool! And while everybody's excited about Cable bringing Hope back to the present to rejoin the X-Men, they're forgetting the most important part of the story: The beginning, back when Cable first lifted the helpless baby out of her incubator up in Alaska. Wait -- You don't think Cable did that alone, did you? You don't think he managed to make his way across hundreds of miles, avoiding Predator X and Purifiers without a little assist, do you? Hell no. Cable asked for help from his favorite Merc with a Mouth and now, finally, this action-packed, oversized story can be told. Before there can be an end, there must be a beginningCable hired Deadpool to help escort the baby to the future. So Cable and Deadpool fought the Purifiers and other mutants who all wanted the baby. After that Cable and Deadpool retreated to the mountains with the baby until Predator X came after them. Deadpool tried to take him out but Predator X ate Deadpool. Cable ran away from the monster until Predator X spit Deadpool out. Deadpool then told Cable to run and then he pressed a button that set off a bomb that Deadpool put in Predator X's stomach. So Predator X died but right after that a sentinel came to destroy all mutants in the area. Cable took cover and dodging the sentinel attacks. Deadpool then distracted the sentinel by wearing a suit made out of the body parts of Predator X. The sentinel then ran after Deadpool until the sentinel fell into a hole. The fall destroyed the sentinel but not Deadpool because he was holding onto a rope. Deadpool didn't want to leave but Cable said it's the only way. "
