With a variety of surfaces slow and fast players would not have to destroy their bodies to entertain ignorant casuals who will stop watching as soon as a player they have not heard of outside of the top 3 or 4. It does not favor the sport to have one of the big stars being crippled and injured the entire year because hes the energizer bunny with not enough brains to think of his playing career beyond his mid 20's. Some of these guys have to be saved from themselves. Who else is tired of athletes Lance Armstronging their way to victory?
As far as court homogenization, can you image any other sport killing its own variety because they think its better? American football as an example, for fans here, would you watch if all of a sudden the passing game dies and every team relies on their running game only, you would only see 3 or 4 passes a game tops. Just slow defensive football. I guess the same could be applies to soccer though i have not followed that sport for a while so i do not know if teams copying each others style has become a problem or not.
Interesting. How come all of a sudden there is a homogenization ? what is this crappy analysis anyway ?? the times have changed and it's not all surface -surface. Have to mention that, while there was the domination Fed Nadal for few years no body cried this much , everyone was in admiration of these great god like players. It is only now that there's Djokovic Murray as well that some people started to cry .
The fact that there's Djokovic Murray who are also versatile players on all surfaces beats the theory that it is uniform (the surface or the game itself)
So, They will give you super fast surface tournament and then what ? some serve bots will reach the final and it will be deadly boring will last 1h 1/2 and what? We might as well give them wooden racquets so they'll have to slow down
), and will run less... and it'll be again like nastase ,mcenroe ! no injuries , no daily athletic prep. physios nothing..
The surface is not that much of an issue as much as the players are.. How come the top 3 top 4 are versatile players and they excel on every court? logically nadal should have never won Wimb, Indian wells, etc.. neither Nole .. but we saw also big servers like berdych ,soderling reach the final and we saw what happened to them ..

1. Season pork chops on both sides with the poultry seasoning, salt and pepper.
2. On a large frying pan, heat oil over medium high flame.
3. When the oil is hot, brown the pork chops well, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and reserve on a plate.
4. Pour off the excess oil, and place the pan back on the stove over medium heat.
5. Add butter and the onions, along with a big pinch of salt.
6. Brown it for 15 minutes. The onions need to caramelize for best results.
7. Add garlic and cook for one minute.
8. Add flour and cook for two minutes.
9. Add the chicken broth, liquid from pork chops, buttermilk, and water.
10. As the mixture comes to a simmer, use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
11. Reduce flame and let the onion gravy gently simmer for 15 minutes. Add a splash of water if it seems to be getting too thick.
12. Add the pork chops, and any juices, back into the pan, and coat with the gravy. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the pork reaches your desired level of doneness. Taste for seasoning and adjust if needed.
13. Serve Pork Chops in Onion Gravy over rice, topped with the onion gravy.

Lean Angle Jeans - Finally protective jeans I would wear!

They just feel like a lot of extra weight which I understand why but I don't think I'd feel comfortable wearing them all day. I feel I would want to change out of them making the whole point of buying them pointless. Currently I wear textile over pants with jeans and remove the over pants at work. I was hoping these would save me from having to remove over pants and wear two layers while riding or have to change out of the over pants into jeans if I just wore the over pants to work.
I noticed that the knee armor got hot while wearing them for only a short period of time trying them on. Worried this might cause me to sweat around the knees while wearing them for long periods. This I'm sure would not feel comfortable all day long at work causing me to want to charge out of them.
In my opinion I don't like the low rise feel / cut. I always felt like I was losing the jeans. A belt was definitely better, but I still felt like my jeans were hanging to low off my waist. I know some say you'll get used to the cut but I don't think I will. Maybe this has something to do with my feeling... that the top part of the jeans where the belt goes around the circumference feels too flimsy and not stiff enough. I guess this is the stretch quality of the fabric causing this. I want to say this part of the Jean should be heavier weight denim to show some support and form. Not soft weight material like the rest of the Jean. Often I found it twisting or changing shape because of the interaction with the belt and my body. Maybe it was changing shape party to me always trying to pull them up. Maybe all the above would be a moot point if they were not low rise cut and there were more belt loops as others suggested.
Otherwise all else was great. I really want to like these as far as fit since everything else is prefect.
Maybe the issue is I ordered them based on my comfortable jean size that I usually wear right below my belly button (dam gut) and not around my hips which is a smaller diameter. Hence maybe a smaller size would help the bad low rise feelings I have. However I think I still would have to some degree the heavy feeling and the hot knees issue.
I am thinking of returning them but I am wondering if a smaller waist would make things better? Waiting for Kevin's feedback and any of yours before I decide.
Like you, I have always worn overpants over my jeans or slacks to work.
I have worn my Lean Angles to work a number of times now, including yesterday which encompassed a 2 hour ride each way and a 4 hour meeting. For that, they were great!
At the office, on a normal day, I cannot have the knee armor in all day. it rubs my knees. Unfortunately, it's difficult to remove the knee armor with the pants still being worn, certainly more difficult than removing overpants. What I did, was I put Gorilla tape over all the Velcro on the knee pad except about 1" at the bottom end of the pad. That makes it much easier to remove and put the knee pads in while wearing the jeans. That said, I don't plan to use them as an everyday ride-to-work pant. I'm going to use them on days, like yesterday, where I'm travelling a long distance on the bike and I don't want to have to stash gear on the bike while I'm conducting my business.
I totally agree with you on the material for the waistband. Making the waistband out of a heavier/stiffer denim would be a very good idea. Especially if two more belt loops were added.
Overall, these are by far the best and most comfortable riding jeans I've tried and nothing else comes this close to looking like a "normal" pair of jeans.

Breakfast, location, personal attention of staff. Whatever is lacking in size of room or bathroom is more than made by the cheerful hospitality of the staff. I even got a limo ride back to the airport.

Location is very nice- near to Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque, Sultan Ahmet Square and Grand Bazaar.
The rooms are too small. Bathrooms are too too too small. Rooms are not cleaned every day! The service is overall too poor.

This game is alright but I feel like I'm just mashing buttons.... I just dont think the controls were thought through well... It could be a really fun game, it really needs updates on different controls though.
Good game

You barely have control and it's just not fun at all

Without the dedication of these 4-H leaders of their time, efforts, and talents, many of the young ladies and gentlemen involved would not have the opportunity to learn clothing construction skills, develop self confidence, poise, and modeling skills.

RBS Six Nations: England v Wales match preview
Last Updated: 09/03/14 8:06am
England will bid to avenge last season's 30-3 drubbing when they renew their RBS Six Nations rivalry with Wales at Twickenham on Sunday.
The record victory in the Millennium Stadium last March saw Wales thwart England's Grand Slam attempt and seal the Six Nations title for themselves.
There is all to play for this time around, with both teams firmly in the title mix with two rounds of action remaining, while an England win would see them clinch a first Triple Crown since 2003.
Stuart Lancaster's side go into the crunch clash high in confidence after bouncing back in fine style following their opening 26-24 defeat against France.
They were totally dominant as they ran out 20-0 winners over Scotland in the Calcutta Cup clash at Murrayfield, before ending Ireland's bid for a Triple Crown with a 13-10 victory in an enthralling contest at Twickenham last time.
Opponents Wales began their campaign with a 23-15 success over Italy before slumping to a 26-3 defeat to Ireland next time.
However, Warren Gatland's side responded to this crushing loss by running out comfortable 27-6 winners against France in Cardiff to reignite their tournament hopes.
The visitors have won their last three games against England, a run which included a 19-12 success over the hosts on their most recent visit to Twickenham in 2012 on their way to winning the Grand Slam.
Team news
England have made one change to the team for Sunday's crunch clash with Wales, with Ben Morgan replacing the injured Billy Vunipola at number eight.
Exeter back-row Tom Johnson comes on to the bench.
For Wales, centre Jonathan Davies has been recalled to the starting line-up after four months out of the side with a torn pectoral muscle.
Lock Alun Wyn Jones will also start having missed the victory over France due to a foot infection.
Fellow lock Luke Charteris was also due to start but has now been ruled out with a neck injury with Jake Ball, who made his debut in Wales' victory over France, taking his place in the starting line-up.
Scarlets' Liam Williams drops to the bench and the Dragons' Andrew Coombs comes into the replacements.
Gatland's line-up contains 11 of the team that ended England's Grand Slam hopes last season, with Ball, scrum-half Rhys Webb, fly-half Rhys Priestland and flanker Dan Lydiate the only players involved this time who did not start that game.
England: 15 Brown, 14 Nowell, 13 Burrell, 12 Twelvetrees, 11 May, 10 Farrell, 9 Care; 1 Marler, 2 Hartley, 3 Wilson, 4 Launchbury, 5 Lawes, 6 Wood, 7 Robshaw, 8 Morgan.
Replacements: 16 T Youngs, 17 M Vunipola, 18 Thomas, 19 Attwood, 20 Johnson, 21 Dickson, 22 Ford, 23 Goode.
Wales: 15 Halfpenny, 14 Cuthbert, 13 Davies, 12 Roberts, 11 North, 10 Priestland, 9 Webb; 1 Jenkins, 2 Hibbard, 3 A Jones, 4 Charteris, 5 Wyn Jones, 6 Lydiate, 7 Warburton, 8 Faletau.
Replacements: 16 Owens, 17 James, 18 R Jones, 19 Ball, 20 Tipuric, 21 Phillips, 22 Biggar, 23 Williams.

NBA Finals, Lakers Celtics: KG returns to form in Celtics loss
Jun 9, 2010, 2:13 AM EDT
- avomonster - Jun 9, 2010 at 2:27 AM
The Lakers want it more, clearly. The Celtics believe the hype and think they are entitled. Get out the brooms because it will be the biggest humiliation the Garden has seen. It's the TD Garden Seeep coming your way Celtic fans. Bring your crying towels because it's all over now Big Baby.
- Foul Dwimmerlaik - Jun 9, 2010 at 3:02 AM
I expect the Celtics to come up strong in Game 4 and make the apt adjustments… then again, Lakers will do their thing too. It's a battle of will. A dogfight. Celtics are no pushovers and so are the Lakers. We got one down, what's another more win in Boston? I go for Pierce's fearless forecast that there will be no more games in LA. LMFAO!!!
- Omnius - Jun 9, 2010 at 12:03 PM
Garnett returned to form while the rest of the team took the night off. Expect Garnett to return to form next game as he once again gets totally outclassed by Gasol. So funny that Ray Allen shot so poorly after shooting so well in game 2, Karma! Great to see the Lakers make a statement winning game 3 on the road in TD Gardens. One thing that was sickening was how bonkers the ABC announcer fools were all gaga about the Celtics the whole game yet were losing. It's obvious those dimwitted announcers are all for the Celtics and are underestimating the World Champion Lakers. Lakers in 6 games because No Rebounds No Rings Boston Little Big Men!

The 5 Nastiest Things the White House Has Said About Snowden
- By Elias GrollElias Groll is an assistant editor at Foreign Policy. A native of Stockholm, Sweden, he received his undergraduate degree from Harvard University, where he was the managing editor of The Harvard Crimson.
- elias.groll
- @eliasgroll
If there were any doubts as to how President Obama feels about Edward Snowden, he laid them all to rest in a Friday news conference, dismissing the NSA whistleblower as no patriot.
At times, the White House has seemed content to take a back seat in efforts to discredit Snowden, but taken together, the collected statements of Obama and his lieutenants indicate that the administration is no longer happy to watch from the sidelines.
Here is a thematic guide to the Obama administration's war of words in the Snowden saga.
No patriot
With a cutting remark — "No, I don't think Mr. Snowden was a patriot" — Obama weighed in on a debate that has roiled Washington: Can Snowden's decision to blow the whistle be squared with his decision to seek refuge in Russia?
For a president steeped in the language and history of the civil rights movement, which made extensive use of civil disobedience and whose leaders frequently broke the law and faced stiff jail sentences, Obama's sense of annoyance at Snowden's decision to leave the country was perhaps not surprising. "If in fact he believes that what he did was right, then like every American citizen he can come here, appear before a court with a lawyer, and make his case," Obama said. That generation of activists often found succor at the federal courts, and Obama's statement serves as an open invitation to Snowden to prove his point. The president here seems to be asking Snowden, If you have such a strong case to make that the Constitution has been violated, why not stay and vindicate yourself before the courts? To do otherwise, Obama contends, would simply be unpatriotic.
"A 29-year-old hacker"
Prior to Friday, Obama was eager to downplay the entire Snowden saga. "I get why it's a fascinating story," he said during a trip to Senegal in June. "I'm sure there will be a made-for-TV movie somewhere down the line." The implication? Snowden doesn't rise to the level of a real geopolitical concern, and, no, Obama was not going to be exercising real political muscle to extradite him. "No, I am not going to be scrambling jets to get a 29-year-old hacker," he told reporters. That he would describe Snowden as a "29-year-old hacker" spoke for itself. This was a man, the president felt, who neither deserved his attention nor merited praise.
"Sideways" reporting
In his Friday press conference, Obama described the revelations surrounding the NSA's activities as "sometimes coming out sideways," a not so subtle dig at the accuracy of the reports. Obama's low profile on the issue has kept him from hitting back at the media outlets reporting the Snowden revelations, but on Friday he made clear that he wasn't happy with their reports. "What we have seen is information come out in dribs and in drabs, sometimes coming out sideways," he said. "Once the information is out, the administration comes in, tries to correct the record, but by that time it's too late or we've moved on. And a general impression has I think taken hold not only among the American public but also around the world that somehow we are out there willy-nilly just sucking in information on everybody and doing what we please with it. Now, that is not the case."
Does the president have a point here? Sure, reports have at times not been crystal clear, but that is the nature of journalism, and if it weren't for the Snowden disclosures, we would never be having a debate about the proper scope of the NSA's powers. That's a price the president has to pay.
Neither human rights activist nor dissident
With Snowden holed up for weeks in the Moscow airport, the world has been transfixed by the question of whether the whistleblower would be granted asylum. That's a debate the Obama administration finds entirely tiresome. "Mr. Snowden is not a human rights activist or a dissident," White House spokesman Jay Carney argued at a July press briefing. "He is accused of leaking classified information, has been charged with three felony counts, and should be returned to the United States, where he will be accorded full due process."
So if Snowden is neither a patriot, a human rights activist, nor a dissident — labels that he would probably all ascribe to himself — what is he, according to the Obama administration? In Secretary of State John Kerry's blunt formulation, he might just be a killer. "People may die as a consequence of what this man did," he said in June.

U.S. on Future Talks With Russia: 'It's Their Move Now'Noah Shachtman
Noah Shachtman is Foreign Policy's executive editor of news, directing the magazine's coverage of breaking events in international security, intelligence, and global affairs. A Non-Resident Fellow at the Brookings Institution's Center for 21st Century Security and Intelligence, he's reported from Afghanistan, Israel, Iraq, and Russia. He's written about technology and defense for the New York Times Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, Slate, Salon, and the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, among others.
Previously, Shachtman was a contributing editor at Wired magazine, where he co-founded and edited its national security blog, Danger Room. The site took home the Online Journalism Award for best beat reporting in 2007, and a 2012 National Magazine Award for reporting in digital media.
Shachtman has spoken before audiences at West Point, the Army Command and General Staff College, the Aspen Security Forum, the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference, Harvard Law School, and National Defense University. The offices of the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy, and the Director of National Intelligence have all asked him to contribute to discussions on cyber security and emerging threats. The Associated Press, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, PBS, ABC News, and NPR have looked to him to provide insight on military developments.
In 2003, Shachtman founded DefenseTech.org, which quickly emerged as one of the web's leading resources on military hardware. The site was later sold to Military.com. During his tenure at Wired, he patrolled with Marines in the heart of Afghanistan's opium country, embedded with a Baghdad bomb squad, pored over the biggest investigation in FBI history, exposed technical glitches in the U.S. drone program, snuck into the Los Alamos nuclear lab, profiled Silicon Valley gurus and Russian cybersecurity savants, and underwent experiments by Pentagon-funded scientists at Stanford.
Before turning to journalism, Shachtman worked as a professional bass player, book editor, and campaign staffer on Bill Clinton's first presidential campaign. A graduate of Georgetown University and a former student at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Shachtman lives in Brooklyn with his wife, Elizabeth, and their sons, Leo and Giovanni.| The Cable |

Originally written on Larry Brown Sports | Last updated 1/3/13
Your browser does not support iframes. Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan began what he thought was a normal press conference on Wednesday when he was caught off guard by a familiar, yet unfamiliar, voice. The voice was familiar in that it is one the coach hears every day. It was unfamiliar in that it was the first time Shanahan had fielded a question from that voice while standing at the podium. As you can see, Robert Griffin III snuck into Shanahan's scheduled press conference and asked him what he did to ring in the New Year. Shanahan came up with a pretty clever response. "I tried to put a good game plan together, but I wasn't sure how healthy you were, so it was hard without you calling me," the coach said. Shanahan then admitted that the rookie "got me good." It's nice to see the Redskins keeping things loose heading into their match-up with the Seattle Seahawks. It's also possible that RG3 is simply trying to prepare for a game against Pete Carroll, who just so happens to be an expert in the pranking arts.

Made the Broccoli Polanaise today. Thought it was a quick, easy side dish to make. Used Italian bread crumbs and real butter - made it very rich. Would make again.
I enjoyed this. It does need some seasoning so i added a spicy salt blend. I also dry toated some panko crumbs instead of using the butter and added some light butter to the dish afterwards.

I don't like this powder. Its dry, the color matches (in my opinion) are limited.

Edit: I am giving this another star more than what it deserves because I found an unintended use for it: I am able to dump my mineral foundation from Urban Decay into this pan so I can swirl the brush in and apply it to my face. Otherwise, I was going to throw this away (I used most of it then got bored with it and threw away the rest). Yay clinique! Even though it's in a hideous green square, it's useful.
This works fine to set liquid foundation, which is what I use it for since, alone, it does not really provide any coverage (because it is made to be sheer). It doesn't feel thick, though it CAN if too much foundation is applied first, I've noticed this has happened to me a few times- but I am convinced this is due to bad application on my part, not the fault of the product.

I'm almost embarrassed to have been using this powder for so long. I feel like someone's going to tell me I'm too old to whip out a Clinque compact...it seems so "college."
But why give up something that's so perfect? This powder is just sheer enough, stays put, looks natural, doesn't change color or change your makeup color. The sturdy case clicks shut with a satisfying sound and I have never had one break open in my bag. Doesn't smell, lasts for eons, never feels heavy. I could spend months searching for some new brand of powder--but why?
The only thing that could improve upon this perfection would be if they got rid of the green case and made it silver/mirrored like their eyeshadows are now...now that would be a lot more glamorous to whip out in public!

Sheer is definitely the operative word in the name of this powder. It goes on very light, which is particularly helpful on those days when a more casual look is needed. It also has good mattifying properties and can be reapplied during the day without looking streaky or getting caked into the skin. The only issue I have is that the pad seems to collect powder on it when touched to oily spots, so it needs to be washed a bit more often.
Also, for those interested, I contacted a Clinique representative who assured me this powder is vegan and does not contain any animal-derived ingredients.

May I start by saying I have the oiliest nose in the world! And my forehead gets a bit shiny after a day of wearing make up. I recently switch to Chanel Mat Lumiere foundation which I have also reviewed, and this keeps my skin looking fresh and flawless most of the day - my nose however, no foundation on earth can cope with! So although I don't like the idea of wearing foundation plus powder as it just sounds too heavy, I do need a couple of dustings of powder thoughout the day. I previously used drugstore powders as I figured foundation and other make up is where to spend the money, and I've broken a few MAC and Estee Lauder powders so thought it more financially viable to get cheapo ones. But you really do get what you pay for. Having used Maybelline and Rimmel's mattifying powders (always in transluscent) I got tired of having to powder my nose every three or four hours so I bought this one (also in invisible.) It really is perfectly transluscent, with no colour pay off at all even if you are heavy handed in your application. It is smooth, seems pretty finely milled to me, and sets my foundation perfectly at the start of the day. It looks ever so natural - the reason I love Mat Lumiere is the gorgeous airbrushed glow it gives me, I would not want to cover this with a heavy powder and Clinque Stay Matte seems to have an incredibly light, almost non existant coverage. But it keeps my t-zone under control for hours longer than I have experienced with any other powder.
It comes in the traditional Clinique pastel-mint green colour compact, which some people dislike as it reminds them of their grandmother's make up (I think my grandma had a green Clinique compact back in the mists of time!) and others like the vintage-type effect. Personally I like them, they are elegant and classy unlike the YSL gold packaging which I think is very tacky looking considering the price! Anyway, it's about what's inside and what's inside this compact is great :)
I set my makeup with it at 7am when I apply it, lightly dust my nose with it at about 2pm but only if clients are coming into the office...otherwise I still look good by 6pm, if slightly dewy (big difference between dewy and shiny!)
This is my new favourite powder and the invisible shade is the best transulscent powder I have come across.

I have this in 02 stay neutral and this is my 3rd purchase. It's sheer so it almost makes me look like i barely have any make up on, i get compliments all the time. I use this along with my Clinque Superbalanced Makeup and it looks even better! I love it. If you have dry skin, put some moisturizing lotion on your face, and a primer (if you want your make up to last much longer.) Well... at least that's what i do and it works for me!

I used to always hate pressed powders. That was before I bought Clinique's Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed Powder. I can only say I'm really impressed!
I was compeletely happy with my MUFE Super Matte Loose Powder, but I've had to travel a lot this year and needed something smaller to carry with me, so I started to look for a new powder. I hadn't been using a pressed powder for years and was really hesitant to buy one - the word "pressed" made me think those super gritty cakey powders that I absolutely hate. Also, I'm not the biggest fan of the word "matte" since I have super dry skin and really don't need any help with keeping it matte, because it's sahara desert dry already.
Because I have extremely sensitive skin I also have to be really careful on what I put on my face and I went through tens of different powders ingredient list before I was happy with what I saw, and that happened to be the Clinique one so I went and purchased it.
Now, after 3 months of using it I can honestly say I love it! When I put it on you can't tell I have anything on my skin, it feels really finely milled, it's fragrance-free, doesn't enchance the drier areas on my skin and the best of all, it doesn't make me break out.
For some reason my powder has different ingredient list than the one posted on here. My powder was bought on 09/2009 so maybe it's the new formulation?
Ingredient list: Talc, hdi/trimethylol hexyllactone crosspolymer, lauroyl lysine, phenyl trimethicone, zinc stearate, dimethicone, calcium silicate, silica, hydroxyapatite, isostearol neopentanoate, trimethylsiloxysilicate, triethoxycaprylylsilane, sorbitan sesquioleate, tetrasodium edta, chlorphenesin, potassium sorbate, mica, iron oxides.

I thought the same as poster below itcouldbesteph. As I have oily skin I wanted a powder that would keep my complexion matte and that I could also carry around to blot during the day. I found that this powder was quite thick and drying and was really chalky and left me looking overdone. It made my face feel tight once applied which I didn't like. From some of the other posts, the ones who like it seem to use a brush to apply. Maybe thats what I was doing wrong! I was using the sponge but I don't really want to carry a brush around with me all day. It's a shame as other Clinique products are great, just not this one for me. I wouldn't buy it again. The packaging is good though with a nice big mirror.

I have purchased this many times and always have one at home and one in my purse. This is my everyday, go-to powder. It has light coverage and the colors match my Indian skin perfectly. I moisturize with SPF, use concealer as needed, then apply Stay Matte with a powder brush. Very easy to apply & wears well.

Dennis Rodman may have finally hit rock bottom. Rodman faces serious jail time for not paying child support and his lawyers claim the former player is seriously ill and seriously broke, according to TMZ. The charges come form Rodman not paying child support for his two kids, ages 9 and 10, owing over $800,000. He owes an addition $50,000 to his ex-wife. It isn't hard to believe the financial problems but, unfortunately, the illness part comes off as a stretch by his lawyers to get some pity for a deadbeat dad. Rodman has done little to earn the benefit of...

New PowerPoint hole used in cyberattacks

New Excel zero-day flaw used in attacksJune 16, 2006
Microsoft plugs 21 security holesJune 13, 2006
These attacks take advantage of a previously unknown vulnerability in PowerPoint for which no patch is available, security experts at Symantec said in an alert issued Wednesday. The flaw might affect Microsoft Office in general, according to the alert.
Microsoft is investigating the issue, it said in an e-mailed statement Thursday. The company is aware of attacks that exploit the flaw, but those are "extremely limited, targeted attacks," it said. For an attack to be successful, users must open a malicious PowerPoint file provided to them, for example via e-mail, Microsoft noted.
It seems like history is repeating itself. Days after last month's "Patch Tuesday," security experts raised the alarm on a "zero-day" flaw in Microsoft's Excel that was being used in targeted attacks. Microsoft released a fix for the Excel vulnerability on Tuesday.
Like the Excel flaw, the PowerPoint vulnerability can allow an attacker to gain complete control over a vulnerable PC, Symantec said. "When a user launches the (malicious) PowerPoint document, the vulnerability is triggered. Successful exploitation of this issue leads to remote code execution," Symantec said in its alert.
On Tuesday, Microsoft released seven security bulletins with fixes for 18 vulnerabilities in several of its products, including many in Office. Some security experts believe the timing of an attack right after a monthly patch day is no coincidence. Microsoft typically does not release fixes outside of its monthly patching cycle for such flaws.
"It looks like the bad guys are waiting for the Microsoft patch days in order to use some more vulnerabilities in Office," said Andreas Marx, an antivirus software specialist at the University of Magdeburg in Germany. "They will now have at least one more month for their attacks."
Microsoft said it will take action to protect customers upon completion of its investigation into the new flaw. This may include issuing a security advisory or providing a security update through its monthly release process, the company said.
Meanwhile, the software giant left two already known security vulnerabilities unfixed on Tuesday. One of the flaws lies in a Windows component called "hlink.dll" and could be exploited by crafting a malicious Excel file. Another affects Japanese, Korean and Chinese language versions of Excel. Both flaws could completely compromise a PC if a targeted user opens a malicious file.
Although Microsoft was aware of the two vulnerabilities prior to the July security bulletin release, both issues were reported too late in the engineering process for the company to include security updates with the July release, a Microsoft spokesman said.
Proof of concept code that exploits both flaws has been released publicly for both of these flaws, but there are no reports of active attacks, Microsoft said.
"So we have two old unpatched holes and one new one," Marx said. "We're up to three troublemakers now. Excel and PowerPoint can be quite dangerous, at least until the next patch day."

- Easy Patch: Install OpenOffice.
- Just go to openoffice.org and download the FREE OpenOffice suite. It's fully compatible with MS Office with the exception of MS Script/Macros. And set OpenOffice as default application to open Excel, Word and PowerPoint files. No Exploit.

- Until the multitude of lemmings out there stop giving their hard

While Office for the Mac is a great product in terms of productivity,
it remains the most dangerous thing on my PowerBook. And, the
Mac version of office is infinitely better than the Windoze version.

I agree with ya Troy except one minor point...the attrition rate. It seems to me like the bulk of the non finishers are first timers and or the guys at the back of the pack. The top thirty have a significantly lower percentage attrition rate (not fact just an observation).
Why? Better sorted likely (training, bike, team, experience, etc).
Surprising in some regards as they are traveling at faster speeds. But maybe this helps in the end., less dust, less cars passing, etc
This may, and I say may, be the first year in quite some time that people other than factory ktm have bikes that are on an equal playing field. The HRC and Husky bikes, from what we saw and heard from Maroc, might be as quick as the ktm factory bikes. If so this will likely help level the playing field. In recent years very fast and experienced riders (Jonah, Helder, etc) have quoted they just couldn't keep up on the fast pistes. You look at stage times for those specials and they are only a few seconds back. This makes me think that there are other "aliens" out there but don't have the bike to compete.
2013 has potential for an upset
Aliens getting pushed harder than in recent years maybe? Possible that mistakes could be made by the aliens as a result?

Comments Thread For: Jan Zaveck: I'm Not Afraid of Berto, I'm Well Prepared
While Andre Berto was as candid as could be during a conference call on Thursday, taking aim at the media for questioning his staying power, his opponent on Sept. 3 in Biloxi, IBF welterweight champion Jan Zaveck took the high road, over and over and over again, skillfully dodging questions and refusing to say anything incendiary during the call, which, of course, is what us scribes live for.

Why should he be afraid? Berto hasn't shown anything for one to believe he's above Zaveck, I've been saying this since last year. They are about on the same level, and I wouldn't surprised at all should Zaveck take a clear W. Certainly would put a lot of things into proper perspective at welter, considering the massive hype for Ortiz based on his win over Berto.

One-third of the world's girls are married before the age of eighteen, limiting both their educational and economic potential. Child marriage is damaging to global prosperity and stability, yet despite the urgency of the issue, there remains a significant lack of data on the subject. Senior Fellow Gayle Tzemach Lemmon discusses both the factors that contribute to and strategies that have proved effective against child marriage.
Rachel Vogelstein and Ambassador Catherine M. Russell discuss about how the United States seeks to elevate the status of women and girls internationally through its foreign policy agenda.
Following the release of her report on the status of women in Afghanistan, Catherine Powell moderates a discussion with Open Society Foundations' Rachel Reid and the U.S. Department of Defense's David Sedney on the role the United States can play in extending the progress of Afghan in women in education, the economy, health care, and beyond.

From 1991 to 1992, the Japanese government conducted research about the trafficking of sex slaves (known as "comfort women") in Japan during World War II. The study established the Asian Women's Fund, which worked in Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, and Indonesia to redress victims. On June 20, 2014, more details were released about information exchanged between Japan and South Korea during the study and about Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yohei Kono's statement which acknowledged the involvement of the Japanese military in establishing "comfort stations."

Catherine Powell argues that the advances made by Afghan women since the 2001 U.S.-led intervention remain fragile. She recommends that the United States bolster gender equality before the drawdown is complete and continue working with Afghanistan to maintain these gains in the future.

Curbing child marriage has become increasingly important to the global development discussion, but it has yet to become central to the discussion about security and stability. Senior Fellow Gayle Tzemach Lemmon reviews child marriage trends in fragile countries affected by natural disasters and/or armed conflict, and offers policy recommendation on how the United States can ensure that girls and women are still able to reach their full potential even in times of social instability and insecurity.
Despite headlines about cruel acts of violence and discrimination against women, Isobel Coleman discusses the changing status of women and girls and argues that women and girls have made significant and undeniable gains over the past few decades.

Twenty years ago, in 100 days of slaughter between April and July 1994, an estimated one million Rwandan men, women, and children were killed by their fellow citizens.
By developing a stronger understanding of what works and what does not in combatting child marriage, policymakers and civil society leaders will be better equipped to end child marriage. Senior Fellow Gayle Tzemach Lemmon and Research Associate Lynn S. ElHarake identify the drivers of child marriage and the factors that can curb it.

What I Like to Do I love to have a good time, whether it's at the local pizza place or a fancy restaurant, a football game or the theater. I love experiencing new things - food, people, art, culture, etc. - traveling, baking, singing, shopping, staying up late talking, and even jumping out of airplanes (3 times, baby!). I don't mind being outdoors, if I'm on the patio having a beer and a great conversation, or if I'm lying by the pool with a margarita, but I'm happiest when I'm not camping, hiking, fishing, or any of the other things we Oklahomans are famous for. I'm open to all types of music, though classic rock and 80s are my favorites. And I love to read - anything from Harry Potter to Don Quijote, but mostly books having to do with spirituality, philosophy, and psychology. Okay, and my subscriptions to Bon Appetit and O (Oprah) Magazines. Who I Am (I Think...) I'm smart, confident, sassy, outspoken, and not apologetic. I feel called to help others and serve those in need, and I dream of joining the Peace Corps someday. I just took a job at an organization that helps those recently released from incarceration with job retention. I'm looking forward to working with this forgotten population and providing them with second chances and opportunities to succeed. I'm pretty sure I don't want kids of my own (although I reserve the right to change my mind), but I do love kids and am the world's best auntie. I'd like to live abroad at some point, either in South America or Spain (yo hablo espanol) or both! I've been through much more than I ever imagined I would have at this point in life, but have gained a great deal of wisdom, strength, and passion from my struggles that I wouldn't dare trade for a life of constant ease and comfort. What I'm Looking For in You I'm attracted to men who are educated, funny/sarcastic, artistic and/or appreciative of the arts, sensitive yet tough, and believe a woman's place is in the kitchen…sitting with her feet up, enjoying a glass of wine, and watching her man cook. And if you'll play the guitar and sing to me, I'll be putty in your hands. I'm not impressed by your car/truck/motorcycle, bank account, or family heritage, but will swoon if you have a big heart and lofty goals. Baggage As Mimi said in RENT, "Life's too short, babe, time is flyin'; I'm lookin' for baggage that goes with mine..." I'm not necessarily looking for baggage, but everyone has some. If you say you don't, then you're probably not mature. I'm just looking for someone who'll accept me for who I am, flaws and all. And realize that no matter my past, I'm a better person for it. And I'm willing to offer the same in return...
