Wow. Rick shot them.
Mr. Sensitive goes Alpha Male. No matter. Rick is scrumptious in any context. Zombies think so, too.
In a court of law he'd be convicted of murder, but you sensed they were dangerous. Interesting territory here. Of course the alpha male j*****f Shane lovers and defenders at my other board will opine that this is tantamount to Shane offing Otis, but it's anything but.
I've tried to defend her, but Lori really is getting on my last nerve. I think it's the actress more than the writing. She doesn't elicit as much sympathy as a character in her situation should. It's not that I can't forgive the character for sleeping with someone other than her husband when she thought he was dead....it's just that she doesn't seem to do anything constructive at all. Not everyone has trained survival skills or firearm skills.....but she doesn't even cook or do laundry or even offer to help with anything at all. Pregnant or not, she could dig or help move bodies. Sit with Carol in the RV and try to comfort her. Anything. Why did she need to go after Rick?
That was Rene from True Blood that Rick killed, right?
I watched the bar fight again and the guy behind the bar had a gun aimed at Rick when he shot him. It was self defense.
I totally agree about Lori though. I don't like the actress and I suspect that is part of it. But I think the actresses playing her and Andrea should have been reversed. I really think in order to play Lori an actress needs to have a bit of softness, a bit of southern belle. I just don't buy the actress as the base of a love triangle.

ANYTHING that reduces the mass of an object is either altering the universal motion relative to the object or altering the objects relative motion to the universe.
Mass has nothing to do with motion. You reduce the mass of an object you only reduce its overall potential energy; the EFFECT of this is that the speed of light inside that subspace field is higher than it is outside the field. This means that while your ship is accelerating at, say, 5m/s^2 inside the field, it could be accelerating at 500m/s^2 to an observer outside the field.
Yet this also explains why ships that continuely use mass reducing fields like warp fields don't move. In order to move your mass would have to be reduced to the point of nearly the same energy state of energy...So there IS a Velocity Threshold for a Warp field.
Yeah... um, warp fields move ships because they're distorted or "slanted" in a particular direction. A ship with a non-critical sub-warp field will still move pretty damn fast, as we saw in "First Contact" where the Phoenix accelerates to 20,000km/s (about 8% of the speed of light) on the way to warp. So a "warp field" will move a ship whether it's at the threshhold or not, where subspace fields will not and require some other impulse in order to become propulsive.
Okay..I don't know what you mean by the "local value of Light."
It means the speed of light inside the subspace field is higher than the speed of light outside the field.
Then why not just call it a "subspace field coil" instead of a driver coil?
Neither name was ever mentioned on screen. The term "subspace driver coil" comes from the TNG manual, where it is indeed described as a subspace field coil.

Ex-Bronco asks O-Maners for help with his book.
I received an email today from the wife of ex-Bronco Runningback, Jon Keyworth. Mrs. Keyworth has informed me that Jon is going to be writing a book about his experiences on the first Broncos Superbowl team from 1977, and wanted to get some feedback from the fans on what kinds of questions that they might have regarding this team and his expreience.
I'm letting her know that I'm starting a thread here in hopes that some of the old timers here could maybe pop in a few questions or offer a few comments that will help Jon get his creative juices flowing to write the best possible book he can and do that fine old team some justice.
So let's hear 'em!

Photos: 22 local college stars who were picked in the NFL Draft... where did your favorite players end up?
Photo: Louis DeLuca/Staff Photographer
Sean Porter, LB, Texas A&M / Drafted: 4th round, 118th overall by Cincinnati / Verdict: This was right around where Porter was supposed to go. A solid athlete with solid production in college and solid workouts went almost exactly in the middle of the draft. Don't expect to see him get a whole lot of time outside special teams and passing downs early, but Porter has a chance to develop into a solid NFL player.

Picture: Jamie Foxx Premiere of 'Atonement' held at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences - Arrivals Beverly Hills, California - 06.12.07
Original DREAMGIRLS star JENNIFER HOLLIDAY is devastated by the treatment she has received from the people behind the big screen version of the musical, insisting she has been snubbed.
The highly-anticipated $75 million (GBP38 million) movie musical, which stars Jamie Foxx, Beyonce Knowles and Eddie Murphy, is the film version of the 1981 Broadway musical, inspired by the story of Diana Ross and The Supremes.
The show became a smash hit - largely because of Holliday's stellar performance as lead character EFFIE WHITE, which earned her a Tony Award.
Holliday claims her own legacy, as well as the commemoration of the musical's 25th anniversary, has been wiped out by the filmmakers who want to keep the spotlight on the movie's stars leading up to the Academy Awards.
She says, "Why is it necessary for them to wipe out my existence in order for them to have their success? It's scary that they can be so cruel.
"I know it's business, but why do they have to go to this extreme? I'm a human being."
After weeks of suffering privately - after being left out of the Dreamgirls publicity campaign, Holliday reveals the final straw came as she watched JENNIFER HUDSON being interviewed on TV.
As Hudson, who plays Effie in the new film, was chatting, Holliday's show-stopping hit AND I AM TELLING YOU I AM NOT GOING played in the background: "When I saw that, I just gave up. I thought, 'This is a hopeless situation. I am being cancelled out as an artist.'"

Suspended license convictions pile up for Brandon manNovember 20,201312 days labor for
unlicensed driver
A Brandon man who pleaded guilty to three counts of driving without a license this week was ordered Monday to serve 12 days on the Department of Corrections work crew.
Joshua P. Lester, 21, who has been convicted of driving with his license suspended five times since March 2010, added three more convictions to that total Monday when he pleaded guilty to new misdemeanor DLS counts brought against him in August and October.
Lester also pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of violating court-ordered conditions of release.
In exchange for his guilty plea, state prosecutors dropped three other DLS charges brought against Lester this year along with another charge of violating his conditions of release.
Starting with two DLS charges brought in February, police in Brandon and Rutland brought the same charge against him twice in August and two more times in October.
According to Rutland Police, Lesters motor vehicle license was suspended indefinitely in 2009.MORE IN This Just In

Crown of Zvonimir
This article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in Croatian. (October 2015) Click [show] for important translation instructions.
The Crown of Zvonimir was bestowed on King Dmitar Zvonimir of Croatia in 1076 by the papal legate. Zvonimir ruled Croatia until 1089 after which the crown was used in the coronation of his successor Stjepan II and presumably by the numerous Hungarian monarchs after the unification of the Kingdom of Croatia and Kingdom of Hungary in 1102.
It is quite possible that the crown was lost during the 1520s when the Ottoman Turks captured and sacked the royal capitals of Solin and Knin. It is not known whether the medieval Crown of Zvonimir still exists.
A stylised version of this crown is used on several provincial and county flags in modern Croatia and is consistently of the design illustrated here which is taken from an 11th-century engraving found in a baptistry in Split.[1] The distinctive long sides could be hanging pendilia as found adorning the Holy Crown of Hungary which was also an 11th-century papal gift.
World War II appropriation[edit]
In 1941, the fascist Ustaše regime assumed control of Croatia and decided to reinstate a monarchy in the Independent State of Croatia, also appropriating the symbols of the medieval Croatian state. They created another "Crown of Zvonimir", though with little resemblance to the original, described as "a wreath of golden clover leaves surmounted by a cross".[2] That crown, as well as an orb in the form of an apple, was then presented to Victor Emmanuel III of Italy with the request he choose a suitable member of the House of Savoy to be elevated to the proposed Croatian throne as king. He chose the Duke of Spoleto who was then named "King Tomislav II", even though he never reigned, instead remaining in his Italian properties until 1943. Although it seems likely he came into possession of the regalia, he was never formally crowned. It is unknown whether this crown remains in existence.

Step Up To The Super
Yes, it is a NEW airplane
Considerations of cruise speed and fuel burn pale to insignificance in the Waco, but this isn't a one-trick pony, suitable only for hamburger flights on CAVU Sundays and holidays. Pilots WILL take them cross-country from time to time. While fun is more often the goal than speed or range, fuel capacity is 48 gallons, so the new YMF-5D offers about 2.5 hours' endurance plus reserve at 15 gph, trucking along at 105 knots max. If you're determined to cover longer distances, you can add a pair of 12-gallon aux tanks that can extend endurance to four hours and range to 420 nm.
It's true the more common application of the big biplane is local cruising with perhaps a loop or roll thrown in just to keep things interesting. The Waco is easily tough enough for most basic aerobatics, but it was never designed for hard acro. Roll rate is a leisurely 50-60 degrees per second, so a full-aileron-deflection roll requires about seven seconds. Loops can be pretty much as you like them, depending upon how hard you're willing to pull. (G-limit is 5.5.) The airplane also does a reasonable hammerhead turn to the left with full left rudder and opposite aileron to avoid rolling onto your back.
The Waco IS an open-cockpit airplane, and that might seem to present problems in winter, but Waco is way ahead of you. The company has paid special attention to the problem of heating the airplane's two, open-air pits. The windshields do a good job of deflecting airflow away from the pilot/passengers, and heat floods up from the floors to keep everyone comfortable and warm in temperatures that might surprise you. It's true I was flying in Florida in April, so the problem was minimal, but the heater is alleged to be phenomenal at suppressing the cold of those Battle Creek winters.
The Waco's 51-knot stall speed makes the airplane friendly down to approach speeds of 65 or even 60 knots if you need to plunk it on and stop it short. The airplane provides so much aerodynamic warning of an impending stall, you'd have to be in a narcoleptic trance not to recognize it. Three-point touchdowns or wheel landings work equally well, and the biplane goes almost exactly where you point it on the ground with the help of that big, steerable tailwheel.
Waco's YMF-5D is the oldest general aviation airplane design still in production. Fortunately, that doesn't portend bad things. The model has a good safety record, and a nearly fanatical following among its owners. One of them, a prominent real estate broker in Santa Ana, Calif., once misjudged a desert crosswind, lost control on landing and put his Waco on its nose, doing substantial damage. The tough steel-tube structure kept him from harm, and as he was sitting in the airplane, hanging from his straps and waiting for the crash crew, he pulled out his cell phone, dialed the factory in Battle Creek and ordered a new one. Now, that's dedication.

Eating In Saved Sir Gulam's Life
Every night since the previous Saturday, Sir Gulam Noon, 72 years old, one of Britain's most prominent businessman, had dined at a restaurant in Mumbai's Taj Mahal Palace & Resort, where he was staying. On Wednesday night, he suggested to his colleagues and brother that they eat in his suite.
That decision saved his life, Sir Gulam now says. The restaurant "is the first place they killed people in, it was indiscriminate killing," says the Mumbai-born founder and chairman of British food firm Noon Products.
When Sir Gulam, nicknamed the "Curry King" for his business in ready-made meals, first heard the shots, he thought it was fireworks from one of the many marriages that happen in Mumbai at this time of year. As it dawned on the group of seven that this was in fact gunfire, the phone rang and the hotel manager told them to stay in and lock the doors.
Looking out of the keyhole into the corridor, he and a colleague saw two terrorists walking past carrying guns. "They were kicking at the doors to open them, and then we knew how serious it was," he said.
They barricaded the doors with furniture. At midnight a huge explosion rocked the building like an "earthquake," Sir Gulam said. "In my mind, I thought we are going to see a 9/11 here," he said, fearing the entire hotel would be blown up.
Sir Gulam remembers looking at his older brothers and saying "let's be courageous, this can't last forever." With the television off, Sir Gulam was getting all his information from his daughters, who were watching the news in London. "They were saying, 'the building is on fire on the south side on the 6th floor," he remembers. His third-floor suite was on the north side, but outside the corridor was filling with smoke.
Discussion: Share Your Views
Soon they began to choke as smoke filled the room. At about 4.30 a.m., Sir Gulam telephoned the receptionist. "She was a brave girl, she was still there. I said 'we are coming out, whatever happens we are coming out with our hands up,' " he said.
But the receptionist warned him "for God's sake sir, do not take this step, you will be shot by commandos," he said.
Staying in the room, they were spotted by firefighters, who moved a crane to their window, broke it and gradually brought the party out. "And our ordeal was over," he said.
Outside they were met by hotel management with water. Sir Gulam, who was born in Bombay and settled in the United Kingdom in 1973, learned that the hotel manager who he had talked to the day before had lost his wife and two children in the fire.
"All the innocent people caught up this. It is very, very sad," he said.
Sir Gulam, who is one of the largest contributors to the Labour Party, said he spoke with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown on the phone. "He said, 'I'm very pleased you came out unscathed, you must tell me about it when you get back,' " Sir Gulam said.
"This was the worst crisis I have seen in my life. Bombay is under siege," he said.

DJBooth.net Interviews Colin Munroe at Hennessy Artistry Showcase [Exclusive Video]
Chicago, Ill. -- Last month, DJBooth.net had the opportunity to attend the Hennessy Artistry Showcase. Held at Chicago venue The Shrine and hosted by Windy City emcee Common, the event included a performance by Lenny Kravitz' daughter, Zoë Kravitz, as well as sets by Booth favorites Jeremih and Colin Munroe, the latter of whom rocked the stage alongside Philly octet The Roots.
After the show, DJBooth sat down for an interview with Munroe, the Ontarian up-and-comer who brought us such reader-approved features as "Piano Lessons" and "Start a War," in addition to earning plaudits for his guest vocals on tracks by Wale ("Bittersweet"), Izza Kizza ("Connect the Dots") and Che Grand ("Too Much Too Soon"). Fresh off a national tour in support of Wale's forthcoming debut album, Attention: Deficit (due out in early November), the buzzmaking singer/songwriter/producer is wrapping up recording on his own freshman set, Don't Think Less of Me.
In the exclusive video below, Colin Munroe gives us the inside scoop on his pre-performance drinking preferences, which #1 hitmaker and fellow Toronto resident just might appear on his next single (cough, Drake, cough) and his plans to drop new material in mixtape form prior to his debut's arrival on store shelves.

Fresh-off-the-plane seafood gets delivered from the Honolulu fish market to Heavenly Village's sexiest (and priciest) restaurant. The sleek, white-tablecloth dining room is decked out with carved bamboo, a burnt-orange color palette, and a modern-glass sculpture, all of which complement contemporary Pacific Rim specialties such as melt-from-the-bone baby-back pork ribs with sesame-garlic soy sauce. Sushi selections with inventive rolls and sashimi combos, plus less expensive vegetarian dishes, add depth to the menu.

The relaxed atmosphere of the restaurant has a 'Sante Fe' feel with its orange and blue colour scheme which is enhanced by the solid wooden furnishings and airy double volume ceiling. The loft area creates a relaxed post pudding space for guests to linger a little longer and indulge in a good brandy and a Cuban cigar.
And then there's the steak. With a descriptive chart to guide on preference of preparation, one can be guaranteed that B's will go to great lengths provide its patrons with steak as they like it. Firm menu favourites include the Chateaubriand and Carpetbagger.
Not only does B's offer the very best steaks, but as an essential compliment to any steak meal, its wine list is also award winning (Diners Club award).
Visitors also do not have to go home empty handed. Meat products such as steak, wors and biltong as well as a range of sauces can now be purchased from the restaurant's new butchery counter.

More occult goodness for your programming pleasure! The Session Mode is a great feature of WIF which is not known as widely as it should be.
Sometimes you will be in situations in which it is advisable to limit the size of the cookie you send around. WIF already take steps for being parsimonious with the cookie size. By default, the cookie will contain just the layout defined by the SessionSecurityToken: more or less the minimal information required for being able to reconstruct the IClaimsPrincipal across requests (as opposed to a verbatim dump of the entire incoming bootstrap token, with its logorrheic XML syntax, key references & friends).
Let's see if we can visualize the quantities at play here. If you take the FedAuth cookie generated from the default token issued from the default STS template implementation in the WIF SDK, the one with just name & role claims hardcoded in a SAML1.0 assertion, you get the following:
Slightly more than 2K. Not the nimblest thing you've ever seen, but not a cetacean cookie either. On the other hand we have just two claims here; what happens if we have more than those, or we have big claims such as base64'ed images or similar? Moreover: sometimes we do need to include the bootstrap token in the session, for example when we call a frontend which needs to invoke a backend acting as the caller. Let's pick this last case: keeping the same token we used above, let's save it in the session (by adding saveBootstrapTokens="true" to the microsoft.identityModel/service element on the RP) and see how big a cookie we get:
That's bigger: 5K of DPAPI-packaged goodness. And it's just 2 claims of ValueType string, you can imagine how the size could go up fast with number and size of the individual claims. On the other hand, if you need that info there is no (clean) way around it, you've got to ask for a token which will contain it. However that does not necessarily imply that your cookie has to grow as well. Since RTM, WIF provides you with a simple but effective way of keeping the token info in a server side cache, which means that the cookie can be as small as the reference to the cache entry that should be retrieved in the context of the current session.
WIF already had a cache for tokens, the abstract SecurityTokenCache and subclasses (such as the default implementation MruSecurityTokenCache), which is associated to the SessionSecurityTokenHandler via the config element add/sessionTokenRequirement/securityTokenCacheType (see the post about the config). The idea behind the token cache was (and is) reducing the request processing time, since retrieving the SessionSecurityToken from a cache is more efficient than reserializing it from a cookie every time.
From there, the move toward session mode is very natural. WIF RTM added a property to the SessionAuthenticationModule, IsSessionMode. When flipped to true, IsSessionMode has the effect of ensuring that the SessionSecurityToken remains in the cache for the whole duration of the session and generating a cookie which contains just a session identifier rather than the content of the session itself. The result is a very lightweight cookie! Let's see what cookie we get in session mode:
ASP.NET_SessionId f1dy2w55eigyfj55fvbnpm55 FedAuth 77u/PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0idXRmLTgiPz48U2VjdXJ pdHlDb250ZXh0VG9rZW4gcDE6SWQ9Il8yMGEyZWVkMy1mYzFkLTQyYzEtYT JjYi1jMWJiNTEwYTA4MWItMjJGM0E5M0I2NDZDNjFEQTE0M0NBN0YxREJEO TAyNjQiIHhtbG5zOnAxPSJodHRwOi8vZG9jcy5vYXNpcy1vcGVuLm9yZy93c3 MvMjAwNC8wMS9vYXNpcy0yMDA0MDEtd3NzLXdzc2VjdXJpdHktdXRpbGl0 eS0xLjAueHNkIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL2RvY3Mub2FzaXMtb3Blbi5vcmcvd3 tc3gvd3Mtc2VjdXJlY29udmVyc2aW9uLzIwMDUxMiIPElkZW50aWZpZXIdXJu OnV1aWQ6NDE2ODIxMGMtOTYzMy00NjIwLTk5ZGItZDc0Y2YyOTY0NmVjP C9JZGVudGlmaWVyPjxJbnN0YW5jZT51cm46dXVpZDo1N2Y0Y2JmNi00MjIw LTQ2NzEtYWQxZC1lODNkNGFlYWI4YWI8L0luc3RhbmNlPjwvU2VjdXJpdHlD b250ZXh0VG9rZW4
Tiny! A meager ~650 bytes. Neat trick, eh? Now, that doesn't mean that all of a sudden it is a good idea to use claims for moving videos around, it stil isn't, but the session mode does decouple you from a lot of drawbacks associated to size.
The catch is that, you guessed it, the out of the box cache class is not NLB ready (hence won't work too well on Windows Azure either). However fixing it is not hard, derive from SecurityTokenCache your own cache and use whatever NLB-friendly storage you like. I seem to recall that Hervey did give some details in his PDC talk.
But wait, I have shown you the advantages of the session mode but I neglected to tell you how to enable that on your application! It's pretty easy: in your global.asax add
<%@ Import Namespace="Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web" %>
<script runat="server">
void WSFederationAuthenticationModule_SessionSecurityTokenCreated(object sender, Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.SessionSecurityTokenCreatedEventArgs e)
FederatedAuthentication.SessionAuthenticationModule.IsSessionMode = true;
Yes, it would be nice to be able to flip this from configuration; unfortunately in the current version of WIF it can't be done. Luckily doing it from global.asax is pretty easy as well.
That's it, your cookies are now ready for the beach season! Unfortunately I can't say the same about myself, but there are things that cannot be solved with Visual Studio ;-)
P.S. Many thanks to Daniel Wu for a very illuminating chat on this very topic.
"Sometimes you will be in situations in which it is advisable to limit the size of the cookie you send around."
You are always in a situation in which it is advisable to limit the size of cookies--they are not supposed to exceed 4kb. Some browsers will accept them, others will just ignore them. This can lead to a bug which is incredibly difficult to identify--certain users and/or users with specific browser/versions will be unable to authenticate because they will never save the cookie. Cookies containing a lot of SAML assertions or base64 encoded images simply won't store--no error message, no warnings.
I stumbled on this issue while implementing an authentication client for the CAS protocol. I was trying to stuff assertion & context information into a FormsAuthenticationTicket's UserData property. When the size of the UserData + the size of everything else in the FormsAuthenticationTicket (+serialization, crypto, encoding overhead) caused the FormsAuthenticationCookie to exceed 4kb, browsers were refusing to store the cookies.
The solution was to cache the assertion info on the server and store just a key in the UserData property in the cookie, similar to what ServerTokenCache seems to provide. This can lead to other issues, particularly in clustered and load-balanced configurations. Every node needs access to the same information on the server-side, which rules out the possibility of storing it in the web application's memory space --these configurations require persistent storage (database, file system, memcached, etc.).
In any case, the ServerTokenCache workaround should probably be mandatory and/or the WIF documentation should reflect the caveats.
here we can discuss, of course: you can never rule out (reasonable) tactical decisions. For example, some times you know in advance the scope of your app very well and you know you can take the cookie size hit, in which case not having to worry about where to save stuff server side could be a plus (especially in NLB environments, where storage may not be free). Therefore, I think that having the choice between passing session by value or by reference is a good thing; I do agree about the visibility of this feature in the documentation. Note that I would not exactly call it a "workaround", this has precisely the same dignity as the cookie by value method :-)
I agree about the tactical decisions point. The 'cookie by value' approach is fine in certain circumstances, but the approach breaks down if/when the server attempts to send a >4096 byte cookie to the client. The server can't safely assume that the cookie will come back--these users won't be able to remain authenticated between requests. I imagine this won't be a problem for most of clients, but it will be very difficult to troubleshoot for those that it does (systems sending user images in SAML assertions, for instance). You might consider calculating the serialized/encoded cookie size in bytes and throwing an exception on the server before sending a cookie > 4kb on machines configured to send the cookie by value. They should switch to 'cookie by reference'.
I misspoke on calling the ServerTokenCache a "workaround". I just mean that a byproduct of using the ServerTokenCache is that it would eliminate the risk of encountering these types of problems.
When can we expect to see a durable / web farm friendly SecurityTokenCache implementation for W.I.F.?
Maybe something based on Velocity (Windows Server App Fabric Cache)?
Great post,
we used IsSessionMode=true to decrease our FedAuth (RP) cookies size from 4K to 700 bytes.
However, cookies created by our STS Server are still a problem.
In our case the STS Server generates many small cookies (MSISLoopDetectionCookie, MSISSignOut, MSISAuthenticated, MSISIPSelectionPersistent) and three big cookies: MSISAuth (2K), MSISAuth1 (2K) and MSISAuth2 (320 bytes).
Is there a way to reduce these cookies size as well?
Thanks in advance!
@Jimit: potentially, yes!
@Giacomo: unfortunately i am not very deep in ADFS: I'd suggest checking out the forums social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../threads

Back in 2013 we looked at the Solid Concepts gun that was 3D printed using the SLS process. That is very cool, but also a very expensive bit of kit. While it is not SLS, there is a new option that looks to bring 3D metal printing to a more affordable price point. The Mini Metal Maker extrudes a metallic clay while printing. After the print, the object is heated to temperatures between 600° and 900° C, causing the binding agent of the clay to melt away as the metal particles are sintered together. And it is going to do all this for around $2K.
The fly in the ointment, if there is one, is the resolution. In plastics, even the $349 PrintBot Simple can print at 100 microns, and the more expensive units get even finer. The Mini Metal Maker is still at 250 microns. That's a big difference. For now. One would guess that fine detail will only improve as the process matures. You can read more about the Mini Metal Maker at their indiegogo campaign.

We were talking about the future of 3D printing the other day and I was curious to know what the state of modeling tools for the novice is. I downloaded Sketchup and had a quick look around my desk. I found a processor cap and set about trying to recreate it in 3D. That's the result of a rather quick run at it up above (click it to see the whole thing). It was surprisingly simple. A few peeks at the manual and a couple Google searches and I had a reasonable accurate representation.
Granted, not a lot of home users have a pressing need for processor caps, but it does illustrate that the software exists for the average user to make their own parts. Add in the continually expanding collections of downloadable models that are ready to be printed and you can see that this could be a very big deal. It will be exciting to watch what happens in the 3D space in the next few years as prices come down and the quality of the software continues to improve.

The internet of things does promise some great conveniences and technology in the future, but that doesn't come without some worries. As mentioned in our earlier post, security is the thing. And here comes 60 Minutes and DARPA to illustrate that to great effect.
It seems that researchers at DARPA have demonstrated that by taking advantage of a weakness in the OnStar system, they can insert malicious code and gain control of a vehicle. The most frightening part of that is that they were able to take control of the accelerator and brakes. Think about that the next time you are driving.

That is the big highlight quote from this article in the Wall Street Journal about Cyanogen. CEO Kirt McMaster said just that. Knowing only that, the logical response is, 'Good luck with that!' But is there actually reason to think this is a real possibility? Could Cyanogen actually compete with Google as more than a niche/hobbyist offering?
In a word, yes. It is still a bit of a longshot. Google is, after all, still Google. They have all the resources, and plenty of incentive, to keep the status quo. But that Wallstreet Journal article also contains another interesting bit of news. In a recent round of funding, one of the investors in Cyanogen is Microsoft. That certainly alters the perspective, doesn't it?
What Cyanogen really needs in order to compete is to be the shipping OS on more phones. The average user is just not going to go through the hassle of replacing their Google version of Android with Cyanogen. Being able to point you your pal Microsoft can only help when those deals are being negotiated. They already have a few such deals. If this latest round of funding means the skids are greased a bit as they work out more and bigger deals, then what we are saying is, they've got a shot.

While the realization of the possibilities of the Internet Of Things is still years away, we are well on our way down the path. With every industry showcase or tech conference comes another batch of internet connected devices. As of this year, there are 25 billion connected devices. By 2020, it's estimated that there will be 50 billion. Our technological future is, as ever, in a state of flux. From 30,000 feet, it's exciting. Imagine all the wonderful things all of these devices are going to be able to do. The reality of it all is not all candy and nuts.
As with all things internet, the rubber meets the road with security. With the number of devices connected to the global network set to explode, those problems only get that much more complicated. The FTC has released a report, Privacy And Security In A Connected World, that is well worth a read for anyone interested in where our digital lives are headed.

The internet, and how we use it, are both fascinating things. It is in a constant state of flux. Things come and go. What was the standard yesterday, may be forgotten tomorrow. And you never really know what that next big thing will be. The information superhighway is littered with the bones of once great services and applications (Posterous, twitpic, Google Reader). Of course, not everything just shuts down. Some services continue on, a shadow of what they once were (Livejournal, Myspace).
The current leaders in the social space are easily twitter and facebook. But you have to assume that it is at least possible that they could suffer this same fate. What could be next? Have a look at ello. facebook has been having a bit of a revolt over their recent announcement that they are going to start shutting down accounts that are not using real names. This is particularly problematic for performers, who have an account under a stage name. It seems to have been a bit of a perfect storm for ello, as many people are now heading there to at least give the service a try as a facebook alternative.
As you can see in the screenshot of my account up top, it is very minimalist. There is no advertising. And they are clearly marketing themselves as the anti-facebook. Here is the pitch you'll find on their website before you sign up:
| Your social network is owned by advertisers.
Every post you share, every friend you make and every link you follow is tracked, recorded and converted into data. Advertisers buy your data so they can show you more ads. You are the product that's bought and sold.
We believe there is a better way. We believe in audacity. We believe in beauty, simplicity and transparency. We believe that the people who make things and the people who use them should be in partnership.
We believe a social network can be a tool for empowerment. Not a tool to deceive, coerce and manipulate — but a place to connect, create and celebrate life.
You are not a product.
It is a noble idea. And it is easy to see how people that are growing ever-more annoyed with the antics of facebook would embrace it. The fly in the ointment, as always, is whether or not it will be adopted en masse. Google + is great, but I rarely use it because it just doesn't have the user base that facebook does. The people and organizations I want to interact with are not there. Now, we wait to see if ello can crack that particular nut, or if they are just another interesting idea that comes and goes.

I like to think that I'm plugged in to the goings on of the internet and our digital world, but occasionally something comes along and you have just missed the boat. Such is the case with Nextdoor. In case you also didn't know, nextdoor is a social network, with a particular restriction. When you join, you verify your address, and you are placed in your neighborhood. So you are only interacting with your neighbors.
Today was the first time I had even heard about it, but it seems there are already nearly 40,000 neighborhoods using it. And a quick trip through the signup process shows me that there are already 111 members in my neighborhood. I'm sure the content varies wildly depending on the neighborhood. In my sleepy little burg, you'll find things like printers for sale, babysitters wanted, questions about whether the internet is down for everyone else, and someone looking for a good mechanic.
You can also look just at specific posts in a number of categories: Classifieds, Crime & Safety, Documents, Free Items, Lost & Found, Recommendations. I'm happy to report that my neighborhood is looking pretty safe according to nextdoor. And just a bit surprised to learn that I have access to free horse manure. It's a really interesting idea. The wonder of the internet and the modern social networks is how it allows us to be connected with people across vast geographical ranges. The fly in that ointment though, is that it occasionally comes at the cost of the connections in our near vacinity. This is a very clever way to approach that.

On Jan 2, 2014, we reaffirmed our long-term recommendation on
The Macerich Company
) at Neutral. The decision reflects the company's recent deal
with Deliv, strong third-quarter performance and an improving
balance sheet. Yet, a substantial development and redevelopment
pipeline increases its operational risk and rise in online
purchases still remain a concern for the company.
Why Neutral?
Macerich's recent tie-up with Deliv is a significant step
toward combating the competitive pressure in the present
technologically advanced age. With this new collaboration,
Macerich would use its properties as distribution centers and use
Deliv's technological platform to support same day delivery. This
move is expected to boost the shopping experience and enhance
sales volume at the tenant stores, consequently raising the
demand for Macerich's properties.
Moreover, Macerich kept its winning streak alive by reporting
impressive quarterly results. The company reported third-quarter
2013 adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) per share of 86 cents,
beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3 cents and the year-ago
figure by 8 cents. Strong growth in revenue, overall portfolio
occupancy and re-leasing spreads boosted the results.
For full-year 2013, Macerich raised its FFO per share outlook
in the range of $3.46-$3.52 from $3.38-3.48. Macerich also
increased the quarterly dividend by 6.9% to 62 cents per share
from 58 cents paid in the last quarter. These activities raise
investors' confidence in the stock.
On the flip side, we believe that though a notable development
as well as redevelopment pipeline of Macerich is encouraging,
that also increases its operational risks by exposing it to
rising construction costs, entitlement delays and lease-ups.
Moreover, the rising trend in online shopping through the
Internet, mobile phones and tablets has led to increasing
competition and adversely affected the demand for retail real
estates. While the company is making efforts to counter such
pressure through the recent deal with Deliv, we believe this
factor still hinders Macerich's growth prospects.
Over the last 60 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2013
and 2014 FFO remained stable at $3.50 and $3.62 per share,
respectively. Macerich now carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Other Stock to Consider
Investors interested in the REIT-Equity Trust - Retail
industry may consider stocks like
Cedar Realty Trust, Inc.
Retail Properties of America, Inc.
and Agree Realty Corp.
). All these stocks carry a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
Note: FFO, a widely used metric to gauge the performance of
REITs, is obtained after adding depreciation and amortization
and other non-cash expenses to net income.

Looks like someone's trying to give Paris Hilton and her pink party dress and run for their money.
Alessandra Ambrosio turned heads on Thursday night when she stepped out to attend Vogue's Carnival party in her native Brazil, looking sexy as ever in a gorgeous hot pink Roberto Cavalli gown.
The Victoria's Secret stunner left little (if anything) to the imagination as the dress featured an extremely plunging neckline that showed off her ample cleavage in addition to sexy cut-outs on the bodice.
Oh and in case she wasn't showing enough skin? The gown also featured a super-hot thigh-high slit so she could be sure to flaunt her supermodel gams.
PHOTO: Alessandra Ambrosio rocks a neon bikini in Miami
As for her hair? The 32-year-old mother of two wore her brunette locks in a slightly unkempt braid, weaving a chain of pretty pink flowers through her hair and completing the style with a floral crown (although we're pretty sure no one was paying too much attention to that part of the ensemble).
She added a pair of high-heeled silver sandals and accessorized with simple silver jewelry, striking a supermodel pose on the carpet as she flashed her mega-watt smile for the cameras.
Last month, Ambrosio was seen flaunting her bangin' bikini bod on the beach for a photoshoot in Miami, and just days later she was seen rocking one of her shortest dresses to date at the "Leather and Lace" theme Super Bowl party, although we think this just may be her hottest yet.

The FBI's New Mission Is Negatively Impacting Fighting Crime
An Islamic group sued Bridgewater, N.J., for religious discrimination after the town changed zoning rules to block a mosque from opening in a residential neighborhood.
The Al Falah Center wanted to convert a former banquet hall located on a quiet side street into a mosque, day-care facility and community center for a diverse group of Muslim Americans who have been trying to find a home for the center more than a decade, according to the lawsuit filed on Tuesday in federal court in New Jersey.
But when the plans were making their way through the municipal channels, hundreds turned up to oppose the mosque. Though residents said their concerns were about traffic and other mundane quality-of-life issues, some people questioned where the group's funding was coming from, and whether it had ties to terrorist organizations.
On March 14, the town agreed to limit houses of worship to certain main roads and other selected roads, including all areas where current churches and temples—including for Catholic, Protestant, Hindu, Sikh and Jewish congregations—were already located. Al Falah said the town deliberately jimmied with the process, pushing their planning-board application hearing until after the town changed the law, to block the mosque.
"This conduct is discriminatory and imposes a substantial burden on plaintiffs' right to the free exercise of their religion in violation of federal and state constitutional and statutory requirements," the lawsuit said.

Jason Hanson, on Don Muhlbach, right. "Muhl's really good, so (if he leaves) they better replace him with somebody who's super good."
- Filed Under
The Lions have plenty of major free-agent decisions to make this off-season, and most center on Cliff Avril, Jeff Backus, Stephen Tulloch and Eric Wright.
One that's under the radar is long snapper Don Muhlbach?
After eight mostly anonymous seasons, Muhlbach will be an unrestricted free agent in March. He changed agents this past fall, leaving Jordan Solomon for David Dunn, and said he wants to re-sign with the only team he has known. ...

Have been looking for toasted coconut since coming back from Hawaii in 2007. This comes really close to what I bought .Yummy right out of the bag.
These are delicious, I eat them as is or use in baking or to mix into yogurt.
loed sour cherriesoling for white puerh tea and also looking for dried sour cherries
Oh my gosh. Loved it. I love coconut, but this was creamy tasting with crispy edges. My family (including two toddlers) cracked the bag open when we got it in the mail. Will buy again for sure.
I used the toasted coconut in place of the regular coconut in baking my oatmeal cookies (amatuer/hobby baker) and was extremely pleased with the outcome. The roasted flavour was noticeable and delicious and added oomph to an already great cookie.
Amazing product! Toasted coconut is delicious, a bit crispy and naturally sweet. I love adding it to my trial mix with other nuts, seed and dried fruit. It might be good in baking too, but it's so perfect for eating straight out of the bag I never have any left for baking :)

I am requesting that in game anaylsis, our opponents' inaccuracies would be shown also. Currently, their mistakes and blunders are only shown.
I think it gives wrong impressions, of our opponent always making the best move, perhaps when they aren't, because it isn't being shown.
It would not only prompt us to see what the best move was when we realize that it wasn't played, but also, it could help us to better visualize how a position should be played, without having to play a game, trying to duplicate the circumstances. It might not make it to that position, even if we try.
Having this feature would also be a good indicator of our opponents' honesty. If you play them, especially several games and they never make an inaccuracy, it should be a red flag, especially with the system Chess.com has in place. It calls the 1.....c5 for the Sicilian Defense an inaccuracy, if you don't play 1.....e5 for the King's Pawn game.
Yeah, the chess.com analysis is often BS for the first several moves (or more) when it comes to judging what's sound or not. On the other hand it's still way better than nothing and doesn't suck up any resources on your PC.
Get over it and download Arena (free), Houdini, Stockfish, and other free world-class chess playing programs and use them to analyze your games with in more detail. I don't use Arena so I don't know how well this will work, if you have the bucks buy Fritz 13 or some other megaweight chess program, you can also load other world-class engines in F13 and I'm using F12 so I'm sure F13 has the same or better game analysis features.
Or you can contact the staff with your suggestion, which I suspect will not exactly be at the top of their improvements list.

In his book, "Pawn Power In Chess", Hans Kmoch writes on page 106 that almost all openings result in one of 6 characteristic pawn structures. From 106-173 he details with diagrams, text and variations those 6 characteristic pawn structures and how to handle them from both White side and Black side.
