Normally, I would say this isn't necessary, but it is Chicago where they have shot people for a lot less than flopping in a playoff game. My only suggestion for LeBron or the Heat would be to hire off-duty police officers or bodyguards. Chicago has a lot of crime and these officers should be out fighting that, not strolling around like they are part of The King's Court. Sad, you can't just walk around a city and not worry about a crazed fan doing something stupid. When you are as famous as LeBron I understand being cautions, but don't waste police manpower, when you can afford your own protection.

MONITOR Action Group says it has received legal advice stating that the implementation of affirmative action against white women farmers and young people who matriculated after 2002 is illegal.
MAG said the advice it got was that it is illegal, in terms of Article 23 of Namibia's Constitution, to appoint or to promote a non-Namibian with the same qualifications to the disadvantage of a Namibian citizen, black or white.
The party also said it is unconstitutional to give preference to any black or brown person who completed Grade 12 in or after 2002, and that it is also illegal to prevent any white woman farmer from applying for the exemption of land tax.
According to the legal advice MAG received, the Agribank Affirmative Action Loan Scheme, under which hundreds of farms have been bought by black owners, is also illegal because it is not regulated or governed by the necessary legislation.
Last year MAG stated in a press release, which was also sent to the Office of the President and the Prime Minister, that Government is "stubborn" and its refusal to listen to the party's pleas to debate the alleged unconstitutional acts "may result in a big embarrassment for the Government".
"Eventually Monitor Action Group was forced to get legal opinion, on its own account, in connection with the correct constitutional implementation of affirmative action," Kosie Pretorius of MAG said last week.
Pretorius did not say what they will do next. MAG does not have a huge support base and is not likely to institute a legal challenge due to the costs involved in such cases.
Last year MAG made a submission to the hearings conducted by the Office of the Ombudsman on discrimination in the workplace, appointments, promotions, discrimination in implementing understudy programmes, failure to comply with employment equity legislation, racism in sport, culture and schools, and discrimination against farmworkers.
The scope of the panel included submissions on 'reverse racism' - racial discrimination against formerly advantaged members of society.
The report has yet to see the light of day.
Namibia has ratified the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, and Parliament enacted the Racial Discrimination Prohibition Act in 1991, which criminalises acts of racial discrimination and prohibits propagation of racial discrimination and the practice of apartheid.
However, the law does not define racism or racial discrimination.

What do a Flaming Heart, a Spice Tree, and lots of Hedonism all have in common?
So I've been here in Scottsdale a short while now and know (outside of my office at least) exactly five people, so here goes. I'm most recently of Las Vegas, but born and raised a native of southwestern Ohio. I moved here a couple weeks ago to take up a new position in investment management and I am in the CFA program ( 100 if you know what that is), at the end of which a couple friends of mine and I will be looking to start our own investment firm. I travel as much as possible (next stop: World Cup '14 in Brazil), and I actually just got back from Curacao so ask me for the photo album. Outside of those most obvious of traits, I look toward women who have a real passion for something. I don't care if it's animals, books, travel, whatever. Just let it be something other than the bar.
Alumni connections , Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing cards , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting

I exercise 5 or more times per week.

Let's see....fine scotch, travel, and good book about sums it up.
Let's see...I'm in the gym, I'm all about English pubs for the big soccer matches...come to think of it, any live sporting event is all good. I can also be found at lecture series, investment conferences, and the craps table.
Most recently? Machiavelli's "The Art of War" Up next? "Plutocrats" and honestly any decent travel mag.

This Flat-Pack Water Bottle Can Squeeze Inside A Laptop Bag
A backpack has plenty of pouches and pockets for storing a water bottle, but a sleek messenger bag? Good luck fitting a Nalgene in there without an unsightly bulge. You'll either need to go without and keep an eye out for drinking fountains, or toss a few dollars towards these Kickstarted flat-pack water bottles.
A Squeezable 'Glass' Water Bottle That Won't Collect Tastes Or Smells
A plastic water bottle can survive the rigours of an active lifestyle, but over time it will collect odd smells and flavours that eventually can't be scrubbed out. A glass bottle is a better option, naturally eschewing mould and odours, but one wrong move and suddenly it's a pile of shards. These Squeezable Glass bottles claim to offer the best of both worlds — but have a bit of a misleading claim to fame.
Brazil's Soccer Team Has Smart Gatorade Bottles That Track Hydration

TaleWorlds is an independent game development company located in Ankara, Turkey. TaleWorlds is an official brand of İkisoft Software Company. They have been developing PC games under the brand "Taleworlds Entertainment" since 2005. Taleworlds is currently developing Mount&Blade II: Bannerlord. This profile is not run by the company who are far too busy making the game, but rather a group from the community who keep their modDB profile up to date.

Napoleonic Wars is a multiplayer DLC (Downloadable Content) expansion pack for Mount & Blade: Warband featuring the last years of the Napoleonic Wars...
Mount & Blade is the most addicting game I have ever played! In my opinion M&B2 can remain graphically the same as it's predecessors but should definitely be more complex just as has been every next game of the series so far. In other words: I trust the developers they will make all the right decisions taking into consideration their budget and our expectations.
What I want for the next game is some kind of coop campaign. I don't know how it would work but it would be ******' awesome.
I hope they don't change the game mechanics too much. I was actually looking forward to better graphics because that's pretty much the only thing warband was missing
You can get mods that improve graphics...
Plus maybe new sounds, weapons, larger armies
We WANT NEXT MOUNT AND BLADE!!!!! on same minimal requirements , please :D
Im having a problem with my mount and blad warband. every time i play it shuts down whenever i go into a castle hall, tavern or just play for more than 10 minutes. I purchased the game off steam and this is the first time i have had any problems with the game. I have reinstalled it at least 5 times but that dosnt work can anyone please help me it would be most appreciated thanks.
this mount and blade is the best game i have ever played !!!!!
this being on desura has messed up my computer i cant even delete the game or use the cd key
Hey guys, if go to there website, they have made a sequel that has multiplayer.
Hey! Can't wait for With Fire and Sword!
Taleworlds aren't the devs behind that.
wait what? I thought they are?
Why is it on there website then?
It's developed by Sich Studio ALONG with Taleworlds and I think it was already released in Europe last year - according to Sich Studio's site and it became in the top five along with Dragon Age and Mass Effect. (Check their site, I'm not making this up)

Ruling in Sonics Case Due Today
A big part of the Seattle SuperSonics' future will be decided today.
U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman is expected to release her decision on the trial pitting the city of Seattle and the franchise's ownership group at 4 p.m. The six-day trial ended Thursday.
The decision will be released on court's Web site, www.wawd.uscourts.gov[/URL].
The city is hoping the judge enforces the lease between the city and team, requiring the Sonics to play at KeyArena the next two years.
The team's ownership. led by Clay Bennett, wants to get out of the lease, which would allow the team to move to Oklahoma City.

Can anyone tell me what the advantage is to having a 9, or even an 8 speed bike is? Likewise with a triple chainring in the front? I'm assuming I'm missing out on something really basic about gearing, but I don't quite understand the need for so many cogs, or especially for 3 chain rings.
Thanks for the feedback

Ok so there is an episode of the Big Bang theory in which Sheldon and Stuart argue about who would be come the next batman if Bruce Wayne dies. Sheldon says Dick Grayson, Stuart says Jason Todd. Who do you chose?
I always found that argument completely invalid, Stuart said Dick Grayson couldn't be batman because he was Nightwing 'a superhero in his own right'
but Jason was red hood at the time, plus if he knew anything about Jason he'd of known that he's red hood and that he kills his enemies a line batman could never be allowed to cross,
just seems to me that the writers didn't do their research there, also Dick Grayson actually DID become batman so I think Sheldon won that argument

From eight locations across the Washington, DC, area, they vacuum rugs and wipe down dashboards before cars bask in a high-pressure tunnel wash.

In addition to performing oil changes, Jiffy Lube's savants perform air-filtration, electricity, and windshield services, among others.

He had been clocking in to the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company's corporate office in Akron each day for more than 25 years, learning the ins and outs of its tires. Then, in 1984, he made a slight change. He decided to move to Virginia, open Hogan & Sons Goodyear, and share his knowledge of Goodyear's tires there. Since then, his business has grown right along with his family—there are now eight locations and many more Hogans. All of the full-service automotive shops have complimentary shuttles and, of course, Goodyear tires. The full-service auto repair shop is staffed by continually trained ASE-certified technicians, who swap out motor oil, realign wheels, inspect brakes, and teach air-conditioning units how to whistle during maintenance and repair services.

Narrow your search
The iPhone 6 Plus is an outstanding choice for those with big budgets and big pockets, but power users seeking even more flexibility should audition the Galaxy Note 4 as well.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A is satisfyingly simple tablet, but its lackluster screen and relatively high price make it forgettable.
The PonoPlayer is an inherently likeable portable music player that delivers excellent high-end sound, but its quirky design and lackluster battery life leave us waiting for the second generation -- or a price cut.
Available from the manufacturer.
Historically, the WWDC keynote is where Apple announces the upcoming version of iOS, but this year it doesn't seem like there's much left to wow us.
Pricing not available
The HTC Desire 510 doesn't have the specs to excite committed tech fans, but it handles the basics well, has 4G LTE for superfast data speeds, and it doesn't cost the earth.
If you're looking for a no-nonsense, great-sounding player the Cowon Plenue 1 is pretty hard to beat.
This very usable 12-inch laptop is a good, if expensive, tool for websurfing and casual use, but would benefit from better battery life.
Impressive Amazon features and an outstanding display make the the Fire HDX 8.9 one of the best and most affordable media consumption tablets.
For those who can afford a place in this high-end market, the company redesigns its autofocus and introduces the 80-megapixel IQ3 sensor.
The updated HTC One M9 packs speed and software improvements into a handset that remains lustworthy in middle age, but it doesn't exceed the competition where it counts.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Center
Rheumatoid Arthritis - When to Call a Doctor
Call your doctor immediately if you have:
- Sudden, unexplained swelling and pain in any joint or joints.
- Joint pain associated with a fever or rash.
- Pain that is so severe that you cannot use the joint.
- Back or neck pain along with weakness in your arms or legs.
- Loss of bowel or bladder control.
Call your doctor within the next few days if you have:
- Mild to moderate joint pain that continues and has not improved for over 6 weeks.
- Side effects that occur with large doses of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or other medicine used to treat your arthritis. NSAIDs include ibuprofen (Advil) and naproxen (Aleve).
Watchful waiting
Watchful waiting is a wait-and-see approach. It is reasonable to try home treatment for mild joint pain and stiffness. If there is no improvement after 6 weeks, or if any other symptoms are present, call your doctor.
Early treatment can slow and sometimes prevent significant joint damage. So if you have symptoms similar to rheumatoid arthritis, see your doctor to find out if you have rheumatoid arthritis. Early diagnosis and treatment allows for possible reduction of joint pain, slows joint destruction, and reduces the chance of permanent disability.
Who to see
Early arthritis symptoms can be diagnosed by:
Rheumatoid arthritis can be treated by:
- A rheumatologist.
- A family medicine doctor or an internist who consults with a rheumatologist.
Supportive treatment can be provided by:
- An orthopedic surgeon, if surgery is needed.
- A physical therapist.
- An occupational therapist.
- Getting counseling.

A local student and activist will be among a dozen from across the state traveling to Washington, D.C., to push for immigration reform that supports undocumented youth who dream of U.S. citizenship and want to seek higher education.
The 12 students gathered in Seattle on Thursday through the Washington Dream Act Coalition, and will travel over the weekend to meet with state representatives to make a case for the DREAM Act.
The "United We DREAM" campaign is expected to draw more than 400 students to the nation's capital from July 19-21 to push for the legislation. The group is working off momentum set in motion by a controversial law in Arizona that requires local police to check on immigration status.
Ariel Ruiz, a Whitman College student and Walla Walla High School graduate, will be among the students making a case for the DREAM Act, which has existed in some form for 10 years but has yet to pass.
The DREAM Act is a proposal to grant temporary legal residency to children who were brought to the country illegally and have grown up most of their lives in the U.S. Specifically, the legislation would ease the transition from high school to college, and from college to careers, for youth whose immigration status makes it uncertain and complicated to pursue such ambitions.
It would apply only to youths who have lived in the country at least five years, have earned a high school degree or equivalent, have demonstrated good moral character, and plan to pursue higher education or join the military. Legal residency would be considered following a six-year period when students would have to complete their studies.
The Washington chapter of the DREAM Act Coalition is represented by more than 55 student activist and supporters from around the state.
Maria P. Gonzalez can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 526-8317. Check out her blog at blogs.ublabs.org/schoolhousemissives.

I bought a retail version of starcraft 2 when it first came out and installed it on my DELL laptop. I played some of the campaign and multiplayer but just could not handle the low framerate on my laptop so I stopped playing. I recently just got a dedicated gaming desktop and decided to download the game client from Battle.net. Upon finishing the installation and loading the game I discovered that I cannot access the single player. Multiplayer works just fine but the single player is actually greyed out. Does anyone know why this is? Just some extra information: It says that my StarCraft 2 account is Active.
Can't play single player campaign?

Brandon Jennings had 31 points and 10 assists, Monta Ellis scored 26 points against his former team and the Milwaukee Bucks pulled away late to beat the Golden State Warriors 103-93 on Saturday night. Ellis added five assists and five rebounds, and J.J. Redick finished with 15 points and seven assists while hitting some big shots in the fourth quarter to carry the Bucks to their fifth win in six games. In a matchup of teams transformed by a trade last season, Milwaukee has owned the matchup. The Bucks are 3-0 against the Warriors since sending center Andrew Bogut to the Bay Area for Ellis. Ellis shot 10 of 19 from the field and Jennings was 10 of 16, including 6 of 11 from beyond the arc. Bogut had four points, four assists and nine rebounds in 29 minutes in his first game against the Bucks since the trade. Klay Thompson scored 18 points and Stephen Curry had 16 points and 10 assists for the Warriors, who played without David Lee. The All-Star forward sat out with a bruised righ...

About Phase 2 Trial of CERE-120
Ceregene's Phase 2 trial was a double-blind, controlled clinical trial that completed enrollment of 58 patients with advanced Parkinson's disease in November 2007. This study was launched after successful execution of an extensive nonclinical program and preliminary evidence of safety and efficacy in advanced Parkinson's patients via an open-label Phase 1 trial in 12 patients. Patients in the Phase 2 trial were enrolled across nine leading academic medical centers in the United States, with two thirds of patients receiving CERE-120 and one third enrolled into a control group. Patients received a single administration of CERE-120 via stereotactic neurosurgery to deliver the drug into the putamen region of the brain and were followed for 12 months for safety and efficacy.
About CERE-120
CERE-120 is composed of an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector carrying the gene for neurturin (NTN), a naturally occurring protein known to repair
damaged and dying dopamine-secreting neurons, keeping them alive and restoring
normal function. NTN is a member of the same protein family as glial
cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). The two molecules have similar
pharmacological properties, and both have been shown to benefit the midbrain
dopamine neurons that degenerate in Parkinson's disease and are responsible
for the major motor impairments. CERE-120 is delivered by stereotactic
injection to the affected area of the brain, providing stable, long-lasting
expression of NTN in a highly targeted fashion. Genzyme Corporation has
licensed the ex-North American rights for the development and
commercialization of CERE-120 from Ceregene, an agreement that was announced

The law, A-3269, gives a mortgage lender 20 years from the date of a borrower's default to bring a specific foreclosure action. It ensures that decades-old defaults – which under previous law could still be acted against – do not remain as clouds on a property's title, something that can grind a sale to a halt.
"Given the current volatility in the housing market, there is no room for ambiguity," said Assemblyman John Wisniewski (D-Middlesex), a co-sponsor of the legislation. "A distinct path to a clear title can be the difference between allowing a property to be sold or requiring it to languish in legal purgatory.""Past defaults, even if they never lead to a formal action of foreclosure, shouldn't be allowed to hang over a property in perpetuity," said Assemblyman Gary Schaer (D-Passaic), a co-sponsor. "This is an area of law that should have been settled decades – if not a century – ago."
The law provides the time limits between when a lender defaults on a loan and when the mortgage holder can bring an action of foreclosure:
- Six years from the date of maturity on the mortgage, matching the statute of limitations in current contract law;
- 36 years from the date of recording or execution of the mortgage, provided the mortgage itself does not provide for a period of repayment in excess of 30 years; or
- 20 years from the date of default.
"As we look to jumpstart the housing market and give new homeowners the keys to their future, especially in cities hard-hit by the foreclosure crisis, creating this legal certainty is more import ant than ever," said Assemblywoman L. Grace Spencer (D-Essex).

Crowds fill sand for final hurrah
CORPUS CHRISTI - Beach crowds swelled late Saturday despite the spring break season being slower than usual, police said. And the beaches weren't the only spot drawing people on the break's last big weekend.
"We've been swamped," said Mercedes Griffith, manager of Padre Islander souvenir warehouse on Park Road 22 near State Highway 361. The store has sold hundreds of swimsuits on peak days and can't keep 99-cent shark-tooth necklaces in display cases, she said.
On Saturday morning more than 75 patrons browsed merchandise at Padre Islander, but there were no lines to get on the beach at nearby Newport Pass.
"The crowds overall are the smallest I've seen since we took over the beach in annexation," said Capt. John Houston, in charge of about 30 beach officers. "I don't know if it's economy or gas costs, but there have been only a few kids from out of town. It's mostly locals."
Saturday morning's crowds were weak compared with the 35,000 Padre Island beachgoers police reported a week earlier, the first full day of spring break for area students.
Beer cans, foam cups, plastic bottles and grocery bags lined the access road at Newport Pass on Saturday. People dotted the sand at 11 a.m., sitting on tailgates or huddling close to smoldering stumps. The tang of charcoal lighter fluid mingled with smoldering wood as noontime beachgoers, hoping to snare a last hurrah of spring break, began settling into spots along the shore. Area students will return to class Monday.
As the sun broke through the clouds, activity increased as people put up volleyball nets, donned bikinis and tiptoed into the surf. Police began prowling on all-terrain vehicles by 2 p.m. after the morning lull shifted into an afternoon party.
And by 3 p.m. Saturday, people poured in and so did the work for authorities, which included finding a 10-year-old boy reported missing by his mother, and arresting a man who drove erratically with young children in the vehicle. Officials also rescued a woman who was carried too far out by currents near Bob Hall Pier.
"Two police officers and a lifeguard had to take a swim about 200 yards out," Houston said.
Later Saturday, Houston said officers also had broken up several fights.
Police made 19 arrests Saturday, adding to the 24 from last weekend, Houston said late Saturday. Last year saw bigger crowds and 24 arrests during a two-week period.
"This year (arrests) are up a bit because we've focused on the local troubled youth we know," Houston said. "Most of the beach this weekend from Newport Pass to the (Padre Island) National Seashore has been families. That's the crowds we usually see for Easter -- a lot of people from Mexico come here for holy week."
And hotels bulged.
"The first week was slow," said Leigh Blevins, manager of the Hampton Inn, which was full Saturday. "There was an upsurge of families Friday."
But while spring break was winding down for the traditional crowds, workers welcomed Easter weekend.
"Our spring break just begins," squealed LeAnn Vasquez, 30, cranking her pickup's hip-hop music. She and her phone company co-worker, Sonia Mendoza, 34, have been waiting for the weekend, Mendoza said while smearing sun lotion on her shoulders and arms.
"I need a tan," Vasquez said. "It's been a long, ugly winter."

Analytics Job Task Analysis
The Certified Analytics Professional (CAP®) designation will be based on 1) meeting the eligibility criteria, 2) verification of soft skills/provision of business value by your employer, and 3) passing the CAP® examination.
The CAP® examination is based on a delineation of common or typical tasks (T) performed and knowledge (K) applied by Analytics Professionals. In the course of analytics work, these tasks may be performed multiple times with modifications made based on data, findings and results as part of ongoing feedback loops. (For clarity and simplicity most of the feedback loops are not presented in this document. It is assumed and understood that they are a routine part of practice.)
The JTA outlined below was developed by the INFORMS Analytics Credentialing Job Task Analysis Working Group, comprised of 12 subject matter experts (SMEs) (see nearby list) who are: highly regarded in their field; diverse in geography, sector (public-private), organization type (e.g., large companies-smaller consulting firms, practice-academia, etc.), and application area (e.g., finance, logistics, software, consumer goods, etc.); representation of the descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive segments of analytics.
The 36 typical tasks and 16 knowledge statements (not provided here) in the analytics JTA are organized in seven domains or large areas of responsibility, as listed in the nearby table. Also shown are domain weights, which are based on the SMEs assessments of the importance of tasks and the frequency of their performance.
(12-18%) Domain I Business Problem (Question) Framing
T-1 Obtain or receive problem statement and usability requirements
T-2 Identify stakeholders
T-3 Determine if the problem is amenable to an analytics solution
T-4 Refine the problem statement and delineate constraints
T-5 Define an initial set of business benefits
T-6 Obtain stakeholder agreement on the problem statement
(14-20%) Domain II Analytics Problem Framing
T-1 Reformulate the problem statement as an analytics problem
T-2 Develop a proposed set of drivers and relationships to outputs
T-3 State the set of assumptions related to the problem
T-4 Define key metrics of success
T-5 Obtain stakeholder agreement
(18-26%) Domain III Data
T-1 Identify and prioritize data needs and sources
T-2 Acquire data
T-3 Harmonize, rescale, clean and share data
T-4 Identify relationships in the data
T-5 Document and report findings (e.g., insights, results, business performance)
T-6 Refine the business and analytics problem statements
(12-18%) Domain IV Methodology (Approach) Selection
T-1 Identify available problem solving approaches (methods)
T-2 Select software tools
T-3 Test approaches (methods)1
T-4 Select approaches (methods) 1
(13-19%) Domain V Model Building
T-1 Identify model structures1
T-2 Run and evaluate the models
T-3 Calibrate models and data1
T-4 Integrate the models1
T-5 Document and communicate findings (including assumptions, limitations and constraints)
(7-11%) Domain VI Deployment
T-1 Perform business validation of the model
T-2 Deliver report with findings; or
T-3 Create model, usability and system requirements for production
T-4 Deliver production model/system1
T-5 Support deployment
(4-8%) Domain VII Model Lifecycle Management
T-1 Document initial structure
T-2 Track model quality
T-3 Re-calibrate and maintain the model1
T-4 Support training activities
T-5 Evaluate the business benefit of the model over time
Successful performance of the tasks listed above requires specific knowledge, which is what will be tested. At this time, the supporting knowledge statements are being used to develop items (questions) for the first exam and, as such, are not publicly available.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
10 year prison sentence for console modder
Here's my written article: http://tinyurl.com/ne8e4e
So what are your thoughts on console modding? Should there be such a heavy enforcement on those who do it? Does it really hurt the industry that badly? What are your thoughts?
Wow, sucks for that guy.
As for console modding... Don't really have an opinion.
- RedLynk
That seems too harsh for modding console(s). I mean hell, people do it all the time when they upgrade their computers, why would or should it be any different for someone to do the same to a console? What? Bill Gates is upset someone's not paying his people 150 bucks per 360 RROD repair and taking 3 months to do it?
The harshest thing that should have happened to him was a warranty void on all systems he had. This is Ridiculous.
He hasn't actually been sent to prison yet. What do you think are the odds of a second conviction on appeal? How easy can it be to find two juries willing to convict someone of repairing his own XBox? Not only that, but the law under which he was convicted may not itself be legal. If his lawyer is even halfway competent, he's going to spend a lot more time in court before he has to spend any time in prison.
He wasn't arrested for repairing or even modding. He was arrested for selling modded hardware / selling the service of modding. Only becomes a criminal act when you profit from it. If he did it for only for his own systems it would still be illegal but wouldn't be a criminal offense. @Xeno Taking apart / repairing hardware you purchased is perfectly legal. It's when you mess with the proprietary firmware/software that the DMCA comes into the picture. And given that the DMCA was written in such broad encompassing terms into order to "catch all the evildoers," I'd say this guy has an uphill battle.
as Echo65 stated, he was brought in for selling modded systems, now modding for his own personal use. That opens a whole new scenario. While it's nice to say modding doesn't really effect anything, they didn't say how he was modding it.
I remember shortly after the launch of the 360 someone was brought in for modding too, he was putting larger hard drives on the systems and loading the hardrives with games. So without knowing how he was modding them, I can't really say if 10 years is too harsh or not.
*Scratches chin*
Tricky subject. Yes; the sentence of 10 years is dumb, he hould have gotten 5 years tops. But with good behaviour and whatnot, he'll be out a lot sooner.
Should he have been arrested? Yes; Modding a system is illegal, even out of warranty, provided the documentation for said console system covers such an act. Otherwise MS, Sony, Nintendo etc could go take a hike. It really started as a warranty issue from what I can remember, with many repairs being turned away because of it.
See, the thing is that it takes upto a few years, thousands of paid man hours and a hell of a lot of cash to produce a game. The age of the game doesn't matter, it still cost blood, sweat and money to make and produce. The cash they make pays staff and adds a kitty to the funding pile of the next game, allowing them to borrow less and stay out of a financial black hole.
Which is fair enough.
Now imagine someone has decided that the 'Information should be free' and therefore the game should be free. He cracks it, and posts it on the net, but it can't be played because the consoles wont accept a cracked version. Problem solved, the studio stil got their cash to keep on producing and all is well.
So some bugger mods the consoles so that the cracked versions can be played, next thing you know, no-one buy the games en-mass, the studio looses out and can't afford to make the next game without borrowing money from a third hand source. But that's okay because you got to play the game for free.
Piracy, its a victimless crime... my arse.
If you worked in a job where your wage depended on sales of units, you'd be a bit zealous when it came to protecting your product too. Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, they are all answerable to their content providers, the programers of those games you love and adore. If they are pissed because of modded consoles allowing freetards to download their games without paying, you can damn well be assured MS is going to take action.
If it where your job, your product and your money, I'm sure you'd feel the same way, especially if you where in a job where you enjoyed what you did and what you produced. Imagine being on the design team of a game and halfway through the programming phase you where told "Sorry, we have to let you go, hardly anyone bought the game because they downloaded it for free off the net. Because of this we don't have the cash to keep you and half the department, so very sorry. Good luck on your next job."... would you want the little sod responcible locked up and his assets stripped (not to mention several dozen other horrible things we wont get into)?
Would you just say "Oh well, nevermind, he deserves it more than me"?
If the answer is yes, seek help.
The problem with all this is that all he was doing was buying XBoxes, putting in a resonably large hard drive, then reselling them at a profit. He wasn't loading them with pirated games, or the sentence could have been quite a lot higher. As it turned out, the only way they could get a conviction at all was to convince the jury that the larger hard drives were "for the sole purpose of playing pirated games." Just exactly how they convinced a jury of that is possibly the stuff of legend, or at least a good TV episode.
Here's some funny food for thought: Imagine this and/or similar cases... as a Law and Order episode.
Question is, which actors would you have in that series?

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
Traditional decor with some modern touches
The 19th-century property has an overall elegance, with an interesting mix of antique and modern furniture. The green and red Napoleon Lounge, with a fireplace, is furnished with relics from the Napoleonic era. The hotel, which drew both businesspeople and artists in the 1800s, features historic artwork throughout. The large breakfast lounge is decorated with paintings and there is a small bar area with leather banquettes.
Centrally located by the Santa Maria Novella church and close to attractions
The hotel is right across from the Gothic Santa Maria Novella church, in a pedestrian area that is quiet at night. It's an easy five-minute walk to the city's main train station and the Duomo, and a 10-minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery. It's also a 10-minute walk to the Fortezza da Basso exhibition center, so the hotel is also convenient for businesspeople.
Traditional decor and striking marble bathrooms
Each of the 71 spacious rooms has a different look and is furnished with antiques; some have elegant details such bed drapery and two-tone walls with molding. The style (and particularly the bedding) may strike some as a tad old-fashioned, however. A number of rooms, including the Honeymoon Suite, have great views of the piazza. The marble in the bathrooms, with curtained showers, have designs that mimic the embellishments on the city's architecture. Notable amenities include small flat-screen TVs, minibars, coffeemakers, and slippers.
Roof terrace with great views, plus a bar
A rooftop terrace provides the best views of the Santa Maria Novella church. The hotel has a small fitness room and sauna in the basement, as well as a computer, creatively situated in the remains of an old Roman dyeing tank. There is also a bar with leather banquet seating serving drinks and light snacks.
This luxury boutique hotel dating to the 19th century has elegant decor and a focus on art. Some rooms, and a rooftop terrace, provide direct views of the Santa Maria Novella church. The property encompasses few different buildings, so getting to your room may require trips on multiple elevators and stairways. It's worth comparing rates with the nearby Grand Hotel Minerva, which has a similar atmosphere and views, plus a rooftop pool.

Back in March, chef Enzo Fargione rebooted his rarefied Italian dining room, Elisir, into an easygoing à la carte osteria. He ditched the seven-course tasting menus and filled the once-stark space with decorative tchotchkes—birdcages full of fake flowers, a cucina sign in loopy script. You'll still catch Fargione peering out at guests from behind the open kitchen's counter, but these days he takes the time to chat up nearby tables as he drizzles olive oil onto soups and fans prosciutto over hunks of burrata cheese.
Urbane diners who snicker at Osteria Elisir's kitschy accoutrements will likely forget them as soon as the food arrives. Fargione's heavily embellished, sometimes overwrought cooking has become more rustic and relaxed, and that's a good thing.
There are three must-have appetizers: Roman-style artichokes, fried and served in a gorgeous anchovy-garlic sauce; that burrata, with green-olive spread and slightly sweet slices of dry-cured ham; and squid, stretched around a stuffing of salami and shrimp and accompanied by a garlic-and-saffron broth.
Among the entrées, the simple dishes shine brightest: meatballs piled atop creamy mashed potatoes, for instance, and seafood cavatelli, with bay scallops, mussels, shrimp, calamari, and cherry-tomato confit. A whole river trout, stuffed with fennel stalks and baked, sounded intriguing but was one night's biggest bore, whereas it was impossible to stop twirling a fork through the menu's most basic dish—spaghetti with San Marzano tomatoes and basil. On the whole, Fargione is judicious with salt but less so with fats. The joy of that spaghetti came in part from the brightness and relief it offered after the richness of the squid.
Cherry-vanilla gelato distinguishes the espresso-drenched affogato and is a light, pleasant way to end an indulgent meal here. A chocolate-glazed tiramisu bar is a nice upgrade to an often frumpy dessert—and an excellent ambassador for the newly laid-back Elisir. If this is what the post-fine-dining era tastes like, then we say bring on the flower-filled birdcages.
