The Sydney Morning Herald reported yesterday that a new scam is making the rounds in the land down under. A perpetrator of a phishing scam has created an email scam, claiming to be the Australian Tax Office (ATO). The email promises Aussie taxpayers a $250 bonus with their tax return, and sends them to an online form that asks for their tax information, along with their bank account data.
The web site containing the form then asks the victim to mail a printed copy of the form to an address. The print-and-send is just a ruse though, the data is actually captured through a hack when the victim presses the "print" button. The email, like many such scams, attempts to create a sense of false security, by claiming the print-and-send routine is being done for the victim's safety.
Officials still have not been able to trace the source of the fraudulent email sender, who is using a bot network to send the emails. The ATO recommends that people delete emails like this immediately, and advises that they do not ask people to provide personal information by email. The same holds true for most, if not all, tax collecting agencies in other countries.

Lost Wallet Turns Up 35 Years Later
By editor
Gean Brown Jr. was installing pipes in an attic in Spring Hill, Kan., and somehow he lost his wallet. He never expected to see it again. More than three decades later, Brown received a call last week. The current owner of that house had found the wallet.

Special to GoHolyCross.com
A three-time first team All-Patriot League selection, senior captain Alex Smith (Delran, N.J.) is the only Holy Cross player to have tallied over 1,600 points, 400 rebounds and 500 assists during her career. On Jan. 19, 2013 Smith netted her 1000th point, becoming the 76th player, 29th women's basketball player and 11th player to reach the mark as a junior or sooner at Holy Cross. As a senior on Dec. 18, 2013, Smith came out with a school-record 27-point first half performance and during the contest netted six three-pointers for the third time in her career, a statistic that is tied for fourth in school history. Her fifth three-pointer of the game was the 287th of her career, breaking the Patriot League record for the most three-point baskets in a career, previously at 286. Smith is not only a force on the court, but she takes that success and applies it to every aspect of her life. She lives by the idea that her family instilled in her at a young age that while basketball is really important, "There is more to life than basketball."
Despite the numerous awards and the record-breaking seasons at Holy Cross, Smith believes that her proudest moment would be being nominated for the Senior CLASS award. This year, Smith was nominated as one of 30 candidates for the prestigious award. The Senior CLASS award recognizes NCAA student-athletes who have notable achievements in four areas of excellence – community, classroom, character and competition. "I've always been taught that there's more to life than basketball," Smith reiterated. "This award is about basketball, but also about everything else in life too. Coach Gibbons has always stressed that we are women for others and that's what this award is all about." In addition to basketball and community outreach, Smith holds a 3.36 GPA with her psychology major and deaf studies minor. She has also been a three-year member of the Holy Cross Leadership Academy and was named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll. Through her talent on the court and her caring for both her basketball family and the community as a whole, Smith has demonstrated that she is what the award represents.
With the team, Smith visits the Mercy Center, which is a local recreational facility for people with special needs in the Worcester community, and every year the team plays a game of basketball against the members of the center. Additionally, Smith and the basketball team raise money and walk in the annual UMass Walk to Cure Cancer. "The HCWBB program prides itself on being women for others and being active in the community," Smith said. "Therefore, the dedication we have to the Worcester Community has influenced me to be more active in community service and helping those in need. There is so much more to life then basketball and we have to remember to give back. We have the privilege to attend one of the most renowned colleges in the country and we must use our resources to improve the community."
"The best thing I've learned at Holy Cross is hard work pays off," she recalled. "I've worked so hard throughout my career to be the best basketball player I could be and it has afforded me an amazing career here." Smith has left her mark on the program and will be a part of the history of Holy Cross women's basketball, but the imprint on Smith is bigger. Her dedication to becoming the best she can be at everything she does has been fostered by the program. Smith also reflected that she has learned much about community outreach from the program. Smith is studying for a minor in deaf studies to complement her psychology major at Holy Cross and spends her own time outside of school and basketball with people who are hearing impaired. Smith spent two hours every Friday playing basketball and other games with the students from Worcester Public Schools who came to spend time on campus with her. Smith is the coordinator of the Holy Cross participation in Team Impact, an organization that matches college sports teams with individuals with disabilities. This summer, Smith spent her time working as a summer youth volunteer coordinator with the United Way in Worcester. She coordinated 13 volunteer events with over 40 Worcester youths between the ages of 13 and 17.
Smith entered Holy Cross after a four-year tenure on the Peddie School's varsity basketball team, a program that had won 14 consecutive New Jersey state titles and 12 straight Mid-Atlantic Prep League championships. Smith was no stranger to successful programs and learned quickly that Holy Cross would afford her the same opportunities for success. "As a freshman I heard so much about the all-time great players at Holy Cross, Anna Kinne, Brittany Keil, Brianna McFadden, and so many more, and now to be one of them feels amazing," Smith reflected about the success in her career thus far. "It feels incredible to have had such an amazing career here at Holy Cross. Holy Cross is an unbelievable program and I have learned so much about myself throughout my years here and to leave my own unique legacy here feels great."
Smith proved herself right away as she only missed one game in her first two years on the team, and started in 61 of her 63 games played. She came out as a freshman finishing with 321 points, 98 assists, 44 steals and league-leading 82 three-point field goals, which caught the attention of the league and the coaches and earned her a spot on the Patriot League All-Rookie team as well as the Preseason All-Patriot League team for the next season. Smith did not disappoint as a sophomore earning first team All-Patriot League honors and netting a conference-high 85 three-pointers. Smith started in all of the team's 34 games during the season, recorded 424 points and led the team with a league-best 187 assists. The team advanced to the Patriot League finals, where Smith netted 12 points and earned her spot on the Patriot League All-Tournament team. For a second year in a row, Smith's performance in the previous season earned her a spot on the Preseason All-Patriot League team. "The first two years I was still an underclassmen and had a lot to learn," Smith remembered. "I learned a lot from our senior captains my freshman and sophomore year, what I liked and did not like and how I wanted to lead the team myself."
As a junior, the coaching staff dubbed Smith with the high honor of captainship. With her success and work ethic in the previous two years, the "C" was well earned for the junior. That season brought even more success to Smith. She put up a league-leading 463 points and her 93 three-pointers made led the league by 24. "As a junior and senior captain I have a little bit more pressure to make decisions and lead the team," Smith remembered. "But I had amazing co-captains the past two years to help me, Amy Lepley my junior year and Christine Ganser (Needham, Mass.) my senior year." Smith earned first-team All-Patriot League, Academic All-Patriot League and All-Tournament team nods for the second season in a row and then went on to be named to the Preseason All-Patriot League team for her senior season. In her career she has made six three-pointers on three separate games, one of only two players in school history to connect on six or more during a single game on multiple occasions. She holds the school's top three records for the most three-pointers attempted in a season (250, 229, and 218) and the record for the most minutes played in a single season (1199). Her 29 double-figure scoring games in 2012-2013 are the third most at the school.
Smith hopes that she is remembered for more than just her successes on the court. "I hope everyone in the program remembers me as a friend and a member of the HCWBB family," she stated. Smith wants to be remembered as, "Someone who has helped them in one way or another. I hope to have inspired fans and other little girls to work hard at basketball and follow their dreams."

Wind: 0 mph
After reading the opinion of Senator Bernie Sanders in the August 11 edition, I felt compelled to respond to some of the opinions and scare tactics of the senator to convince the American public that the federal government can't cut spending and that the "rich" along with corporations should pay their fair share.
I comment on this because I have been a Vermont homeowner (non-resident) for close to 30 years and am dismayed at some of our elected officials' attitude that the federal government cannot survive on smaller budgets because of the impact on the disadvantaged of this country.
These are tough times. The economy is stalled, unemployment is high and the bottom line is that the federal government is spending way more than it takes in. There is no way to balance the budget unless spending is cut dramatically; otherwise we face debts that generations of Americans will have to live with. There is also the opportunity to grow the economy, which grows revenue, and this is accomplished by helping corporations or the wealthy improve their business, not by taking investment dollars out of their pockets.
Let's look at the fair share comment which many of the democratic politicians throw around with the media. If you look at the top 50 percent wage earners (of which I'm a member) in the U.S. they currently pay 97.5 percent of all federal taxes. The remaining 50 percent of the wage earners pay less than 3 percent of taxes. Now if that is not a "fair share" then I have to ask the senator what is? 100 percent? And, when you look at this with respect to Vermont where the average annual income is approximately $21,000, the vast majority of Vermont wage earners (about 66 percent) fall into the second category which means that Vermont's contribution to the federal tax system is significantly less than most states. Ironically, even if taxes were raised on the wealthiest individuals in the US, the CBO has determined that this would bring in less than about $700 million. Now this is no small amount, but when you compare this to our national debt of $14 billion and the recent approval to increase debt by another $2.5 billion as well as the projected debt increase under the Obama presidency by another $10 billion, it is easy to see that taxing the "rich" will just not get it done. So where does Senator Sanders find the other $20-plus billion to close the budget gap?
The senator says any cuts will impact the poor and Vermont by cutting student loans, feeding the poor and providing child care. What the senator does not address is the unfathomable waste with our federal government. Any individual can Google search and find stories that you would think are fantasy—programs that buy shoes for amputees, building bridges that go nowhere and even tremendous waste in farm subsidies, which I think would be near and dear to Vermont residents. How about the $1.3 billion in farm subsidy checks that are sent to urban zip codes over the past decade? What is urban? Try $1.3 million to the urban farmers in Beverly Hills or the $54 million to Miami farmers. Even $7 million to New York City "farmers." Is this the untouchable dollars that Senator Sanders is referring to when he talks about health care cuts? Hard-earned American dollars for farm subsidies that never make it to a farming state like Vermont?
While the decisions to make the budget balance is no easy question to answer, the concept of raising taxes on the rich just doesn't make sense. As a Vermont homeowner I have also seen my local Vermont taxes increase tenfold over the years of my home ownership. I have the honor of living in one of the areas designated a "gold" area, thereby paying even higher taxes. Top this off with additional non-resident taxes I pay and you begin to question the rationale of Vermont homeownership. I support the local economy by spending time and money in the area at local businesses. I have renovated my home and hired local help as well, which helps the local economy. Tax me more at the federal level (or even at the Vermont level) and it leaves that much less that I invest in the local Vermont economy. This amounts to one less dinner out, one less ski pass or holding off on my next home renovations. These are the dollars that support the local economy and local jobs. To take it a step further, ask Win Smith, owner of Sugarbush, and his perspective on paying his "fair share." Tax him more at the federal level and I can guarantee that it leaves less for him to invest in The Valley, an area that could not survive without a successful ski industry or operations.
So the next time you think that the "rich" should pay more in federal taxes, consider that these "rich" folks are many of the vacationers and second-home owners that you bump shoulders with every day at the ski area, local hotels, restaurants and stores. And the current definition of "rich" by the Obama administration is anyone with a household or business income exceeding $250,000. Have the federal government take more of this disposable income and you will surely feel the economic impact here in The Valley.
Mike Malekoff is a happy Valley second-home owner.

Comments about D'Addario Planet Waves Cable Station Custom Instrument Cable Kit:
These are easy to assemble, and sound good when they work. They just keep coming loose, and loosing connectivity. Nothing more frustrating then having to troubleshoot your pedal board before (or during) a gig because these patch cables fail!
Comments about D'Addario Planet Waves Cable Station Custom Instrument Cable Kit:
In a recent review of his latest pedalboard rig. Joe said his tech uses Planet Waves cable kits to make custom length connetions for his board as he changes things probably as much as most of us do. I found it interesting he uses these over George L, Lav or Core X2. Perhaps because these are gold plugs (so are Core X2). the problem I have is 4 of the plugs are straight and most of us need all right angle so 3 cables in a kit of right angle somehow seems very limiting. Joe I am sure does worry about the cost as he probably gets them for free. Just FYI about Joe useing these over the other kits out there. I am still a little chicken to use all solderless cables. I am opting to buy some quality large lug right angles and use an old monster cable to solder up my own. 20 plugs for like $20 in bulk using a spare quality monster cable yields big savings for me and I do not have to worry about these getting loose or having partial conductivity.

Soil Sizes
Equipment Operator Basic - Beginning construction equipment operators manual
Soil Stabilization
If a soil sample passes the 3-inch sieve but does
not pass the No. 4 sieve, the larger particle size is less
than 3 inches and the smallest size is larger than 1/16
inch. This soil is classified as gravel.
Soils that pass the No. 4 sieve but are retained on
the No. 200 sieve are classified as sands. Sands are
further broken down as coarse sand or fine sands.
Coarse sand passes the No. 4 sieve and is retained on
the No. 40 sieve. Fine sand passes the No. 40 sieve and
is retained on the No. 200 sieve.
Any soil, passing the No. 200 sieve, is classified
as fine-grained.
Soil Gradation
Gradation describes the distribution of different
size groups within a soil sample. A
well-graded soil
(fig. 15-60) is a soil sample that has all sizes of
material present from the No. 4 sieve to the No. 200
Poorly graded soil may be
(fig. 15-61) or
(fig. 15-62). If a soil is
uniformed-graded, most of its particles are about the
same size. An example of this is a sieve analysis in
which sand size No. 20 is the only size present.
If a soil is gap-graded, at least one particle size is
missing. An example of gap-graded soil is one in
which a sieve analysis reveals that sand sizes No. 10
and No. 40 are missing. All other sizes are present.
Soil Compaction
Compaction is pressing together soil particles to
form a consolidated mass with increased stability.

Boy Genius Report has posted its knowledge of Amazon's next smartphone. Although it technically hasn't been confirmed to be an Android device, it is almost certain that it will be powered by Android at some level, given Amazon's existing Android ecosystem. BGR claims to have the first pictures of the phone, shown above.
According to the report, the phone will feature a 3D interface. This feature is enabled through a set of four front-facing Infrared cameras that track the position and orientation of the user's face. The user interface can then update in response to facial movements. Apparently, the four sensors are located in each corner of the front face. The Wall Street Journal reported that the product would feature a 3D interface last week and is set for a June launch.
Boy Genius Report says that the face sensors will enable Amazon's interface to adjust the position of UI components and controls for perspective effects. This sounds similar to Apple's parallax motion effects introduced in iOS 7. Theoretically, Amazon's implementation should be superior as it can track the position of the user, not just the device's movements.
Like iOS 7, Amazon will include 3D wallpapers that respond to movement. It will also add perspective effects to application icons, both on the home screen and in apps.
Moving past the wallpapers, Amazon's 3D effect will also apply to application icons and other core elements of the user interface. Several main apps will be compatible as well; for example, we're told that moving the phone while using the maps application will change the view of various objects on the screen.
Amazon will also exploit this functionality across its online stores. Amazon will use three-dimensional product images that shift in relation to the user, revealing aspects of the image that could not be seen on a two-dimensional canvas. Apparently, Amazon is currently searching for third-party support for its flagship 3D feature. Amazon will expose API's for all developers to use, but wants a 'number of key apps available at launch that take advantage of the phone's 3D interface'.
In regard to other features, BGR says the Amazon phone will have 2GB of onboard RAM, coupled with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor to drive a 4.7inch 720p display. The post also says that the main rear camera will take 13-megapixel photos as well as a front-facing camera for video chat and Amazon Mayday.
BGR does not have specific information on pricing or availability but expects an announcement within the next three months. This lines up with The Wall Street Journal's report that said Amazon was targeting a June launch.
Leave a Reply
One Response to "Report: Amazon phone to feature four IR cameras for 3D interface, 13 megapixel camera, 4.7 inch display, 2GB RAM"
"employ retina-tracking technology embedded in four front-facing cameras, or sensors,"
If Amazon came up with their own eye tracking technology, and it's integrated into a smart phone before anyone else, that's pretty impressive.
An eye tracking feature that was showcased is the ability to have a page automatically scroll down when the gaze reaches the bottom of the window (youtube/2q9DarPET0o?t=22s).
Likewise, you can turn the pages of an e-book hands-free by staring at the corner when you're finished (youtube/2q9DarPET0o?t=1m19s).
So besides 3-D viewing, this extra feature for e-book reading could make sense for Amazon as a bookseller.

Damn. For this kind of free publicity I'd serve bowls full of communion wafers. I'd set them out on every table like potato chips.
Kuma's Corner, a heavy-metal-themed burger joint in Chicago, has unleashed a firestorm of controversy after garnishing a cheeseburger with an unconsecrated communion wafer and red wine.
"We didn't expect this reaction. Apparently, today, someone's coming out to do a rosary prayer over our restaurant," said Luke Tobias, director of operations. "We've done plenty of burgers named after fairly controversial bands in the past to seemingly no visible effect. It's based on a band [The Ghost], just like every other burger on our menu."
The Reverend Emily Mellott, rector of Calvary Episcopal Church in Lombard, Ill., says the burger goes too far.
"The root of this burger is a mockery of one of the most important symbols of the Christian faith," Mellott said. "If the owner of the restaurant were a member of my congregation, I'd tell him to withdraw the burger immediately."

What an overtly protective reaction to something not even directly related to what these folks are offended by. I've never heard of this burger place before now, but I love metal and I think even just the idea of the establishment is really cool. If I am ever in the area I'm going to happily give this place a shot, that burger looks great!
If the owner of the restaurant were a member of my congregation, I'd tell him to withdraw the burger immediately.
And if you were anyone in my life, I'd tell you to fuck off.
I bet the wafer gives it a nice little crunch, sort of like potato chips on tuna sandwiches. The poor Christians! someone desecrating their tasteless little symbol. They should be big enough to take it. What weenies!
I bet the wafer gives it a nice little crunch, sort of like potato chips on tuna sandwiches. The poor Christians! someone desecrating their tasteless little symbol.
I was an altar server when I was a kid. There was a big box of communion wafers with a metal scoop. I used to eat them when I showed up first for 8 o'clock mass and the place was deserted.
They do have a nice crunch, with the consistency of a rice cake, but they are pretty much tasteless. It would be good to serve them with dip or maybe on a platter covered with cheese like nachos.
Nah, they've got a very mild taste. If you're congested or there's any insense burning, you're not going to taste it. It's like if cardboard and wheat had a baby.
The Blasphemy Burger. 100% USDA choice beef, topped with American cheese and the actual transubstantiated flesh and and blood of Jesus Christ. Served with your choice of side: hell fries or damnation slaw.
They should claim it's an actual consecrated host and wine. Why knuckle under? Not like a patron could send the wafer out for laboratory testing to have the Jesus-ness verified anyway.
What are they calling it, "White Castle Light"?
Consecrated or not, it all turns to shit.
Oh I love the blasphemy. I have to give my son medicine and I can't tell you how many times I think, "body of Christ" when I put the tiny pills on his tongue. I might slip up one of these days and say it, creating a lot of confusion for him and convulsive laughter for me.
I really do try to be respectful of people's beliefs, but transubstantiation is just dumb.
Loaded with trans fats.
The wafers are suitable for vegetarians as they have not yet being consecrated. Once that happens they turn into flesh so they should carry a "not suitable for vegetarians" warning. The Catholic Church was upset earlier this year when a DNA test failed to show any traces of Jesus in them.

Hull City statement: 'Tigers revenues would dwarf any season ticket price rise'
Posted: February 21, 2014|
Hull City football club says a successful Hull Tigers rebrand could generate revenues "dwarfing" those raised by any increase in ticket prices.
The club released an official statement today seeking to "clarify" its position on sponsors and season pass prices for the 2014-15 season.
The Mail reported yesterday that talks had been ongoing for some time with a handful of global companies regarding the possibility of forging agreements on the back of the club's proposed name change.
Should the rebrand fail, alternative revenue streams would need to be found. Season ticket prices was one area being looked at. A 50 per cent price rise would see the most expensive adult season pass rise in the West Stand rise from £490 to £750.

Ehab Allam told sports editor Mark Fewings: "It may be an avenue we are forced to explore and adopt. However, whilst it may provide a short-term revenue lift, we do not believe that constantly raising prices is a viable long-term option."
Today's statement reads: "Our Hull Tigers application is intended to capitalise on the club's 100-year heritage of being the Tigers. Over the past six months our vice-chairman Ehab Allam and commercial manager Simon King have been speaking to several globally recognised brands. Although some of these brands have 'Tigers' in their names, the current front-runners for next year's sponsorships do not, although they do hail from regions where tigers are both prominent and celebrated."
The statement goes on to argue a successful rebrand would "help protect affordable ticketing".
"Also highlighted in the same article was the notion of increasing season card prices for next year," the statement reads. "The 1,600 strong 'City Till We Die' campaigners have objected to the club's application in their 21-page report to the FA, suggesting an alternative commercial strategy, which may include an increase to season card prices. This sentiment is not echoed by all 18,000 season card holders.
"A significant rise to season card prices (not limited to the suggested 50%) would still be dwarfed by the potential revenues generated as a result of being Hull Tigers. As stated in our application to the FA, 'the business plan which forms the basis of this application will help protect affordable ticketing for our supporters'."
Following yesterday's revelations, supporters group City Till We Die released its own statement in which it said it was "pleased" the Allams were "planning for their ongoing stewardship of Hull City AFC in the event that the FA rejects their name change application". "We remain open to helping find viable solutions to make the club self-sufficient," it said.
In its 21-page submission to the FA, City Till We Die suggest maximising match-day spend through "ensuring access to properly priced food and drinks, merchandise and content", as well as finding an official digital partner and "setting ticket prices to ensure a full stadium".

California authorities have arrested a woman they claim stole clothing at gunpoint from a Victoria's Secret store, went on a crime spree and led pursuers on a chase that hit 90 mph.
Nichole Homes, of Phelan, was arrested on suspicion of robbery and felony evading.
A sheriff's spokeswoman tells the San Bernardino Sun that a woman snatched items off the racks at a Victoria's Secret in Victorville on Wednesday, pulled a gun on a guard and fled.
Authorities say over the next few hours, a gunwoman stole clothing from a Victor Valley mall, tried to rob a Fontana minimart and waved a gun at people in Rancho Cucamonga.
The woman's car was later spotted and chased, leading to an arrest. Authorities say they found a BB gun in it.

Houses that are built on trees give a breathtaking feel of getting close to nature and finding comfort away from the fast pace of busy lives. Also, the usage of reclaimed materials inspires an environmentally friendly approach to building. Finding the right mix of materials and design will help you achieve building a tree house that suits you. Qualities such as strength and safety are always considered in building a tree house. Following these techniques and tips helps you build confidently and saves you from unnecessary mix-ups. Let's get started.
How To Build A Tree House

How To / Instruction
Difficulty: Normal
It is first important to select an appropriate tree. One which trunk is wide and facing upwards enough to allow weight displacement and structural soundness.
Construction begins with the house's floorboards. One would usually construct a framework that affixes to the trunk of the tree itself. If there is no way to create a safe enough foundation by building from the tree trunk itself, one might consider posts starting at the ground-concrete blocks affixed by metal settings that are then connected to the post could then be safely set to the ground to fight off rot. The post would then allow for a safer framework to be built up.
With the completion of a floor, one can start building the walls and ceiling. Walls should likely be a framework upon which an outer and inner set of paneling is affixed. Something sturdy enough to not be torn off by mild to intense winds while being light enough in weight to not disturb the structural integrity of the tree house itself.
A sound roof design can also vary for the desired project. If an existing canopy is found over the proposed roof of the structure, then a simple flat roof design can be deployed, though it would likely see sooner than average rot or damage as well as leaks from rain build-up though it would be protected from the weight of snow in the winter by the tree itself.
A more desirable design would be a tented roof to allow rain and snow to simply run down and off the structure and therefore ignore the adverse conditions such as possible leaks, unnecessary weight and therefore wear on the structure as well as fighting off the rot that a flat roof could allow by having leaves and water collect on the flat of the roof allowing for moss and mold-rot.
Another good investment would be to use aluminum sheets for the outside of the tree house, the outer walls panels as well as the roof itself as it would not allow moss to dig into it like wood would.
For proper heat allowances as well as for internal decorations, wooden paneling should likely be used on the inner walls. If wooden sheets are used for the roof upon which metal siding is placed, it might be wise to use tar paper on top of the wood first to help further fight off rot and rain leaking into the inside structure.
An entryway should be decided upon before beginning the project based on the area most desirable. More often than not, a ladder will be leaned up near an opening, but an entrance could also be made by allowing a section of the floor to be open. If a door is used, a latch should be crafted to either allow entry while still not opening when unwanted or even through the use of a key depending. It is simply up to the one crafting the structure to decide upon first.
Tips and Warnings
To build a good tree house, first you have to find a good tree. Look for one with a straight and sturdy trunk.
The most important part of a tree house is the floor. Make sure you have a strong and well attached platform capable of supporting 2 or 3 kids.
Don't underestimate height, falls are dangerous. A low tree house is still fun and much safer.
