Chrysler responds to NHSTA, says parts production commenced for safety recall
Chrysler Group responded to the findings of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA. According to the agency, after conducting and analyzing eight rear impact crash reconstruction tests, NHTSA informed Chrysler that "it did not have any reservations about implementation of Chrysler's proposed remedy." Chrysler has commenced parts production. The company's supplier partners are committed to a work schedule of three shifts per day, six days per week, with occasional Sunday production. Chrysler has already contacted affected customers and advised them of its intentions. The cost of this work will be borne by the company.

I want to be in favor of Federal funding for public broadcasting. I really do.
I believe that a function of society is support of the arts. I choose to include Sesame Street - which premiered on November 10, 1969 - in the category of "the arts." You are free to disagree.
I did a lecture last week to a seminar at Auburn University via Skype. The students were in a room at the university; I was in my office in downtown Washington, DC. It was very … 21st century, but that's not the important part.
What is germane to this discussion was a question from a student who is majoring in Radio-TV and wanted to know what I thought about funding for public broadcasting.
I said that I thought this was going to be a tough sell in the U.S. House. National Public Radio had been abysmally stupid in the way, and the reason for which, they fired Juan Williams.
I know Williams. We're not pals, but we are - in the way of Your Nation's Capital - acquaintances. He is an honest man. Straight in his opinions. Fair minded. And, I like him.
I believe the people involved in firing Williams from NPR have, themselves, since been fired.
I told the students at Auburn, I suspected that in the days of cave dwellers, while all the other men were out hunting a sabre-toothed tiger, the guy who stayed behind to draw the paintings on the wall of the cave was given a portion of meat when dinner was served.
That counts as society supporting the arts. You are free to disagree.
But, just this week another story bubbled up to the surface when the former vice president of development for public broadcasting, Ron Schiller, was videotaped (according to a Christian Science Monitor report) talking about Juan Williams, anti-intellectualism and the tea party, which Schiller called "a weird evangelical kind of move ... seriously racist."
Schiller, who has since left NPR for another non-profit, fund-raising gig said:
There aren't enough "educated, so-called elite" Americans, adding that public opinion is driven by "this very large uneducated part of the population." Of tea partyers, he adds: "I mean, basically they ... believe in sort of white, middle-America, gun-toting. I mean, it's scary. They're seriously racist, racist people."
Schiller was clearly goaded into saying bad things about conservatives by two actors who had portrayed themselves as Muslims willing to donate large bucks to NPR. Unfortunately they were wired with a hidden camera and got Schiller on tape.
Furthermore, Schiller went on to say that it would be better if the Congress cut off funding for NPR:
Rush Limbaugh defends Rubio's debate answer: He's absolutely right that Obama knows what he's doing | Allahpundit
Time for Team Hillary to break out the gender card for young liberal women who prefer Sanders | Allahpundit

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday called allegations that some of his travels outside the country were funded by private businessmen part of an "orchestrated and organized slander campaign" against him.
The remarks, in which Netanyahu responded publicly for the first time to reports by Channel 10 about the funding sources for the his overseas trips, were made in an interview that was broadcast on Channel Two and on YouTube, in which he answered recorded questions from web surfers all over the world.
"We're talking about all kinds of stories, most of them baseless and contaminated by hypocrisy. There are journalists that do no like that I am prime minister and are trying in their way to change that," Netanyahu said.

One semester includes 10 one-hour classes, beginning one week later than the regular CMS session. Each class is offered only if there are four or more students in it. Tuition is due on the first day of class and is nonrefundable.
This ensemble is under the direction of Southeatern's saxophone faculty, Dr. Kimberly Gedde. Admission to the ensemle is by audition. If interested, please e-mail Dr. Gedde at firstname.lastname@example.com. Tuition for the class is $170 per semester payable to Southeastern Louisiana University. The ensemble will focus on studying and performing repertoire for four or more saxophones.
This group is designed for young singers, ages 6-12, to develop and improve singing skills while learning basic musicianship. There is no previous choral experience necessary, and there are several performances throughout the year.
Students who wish to participate in this class should have already had four semesters of private violin lessons. Fiddling offers the opportunity to explore the folk music tradition of our country and of other countries. It is also an exhilarating change of pace in one's musical journey.
Location: Livingston Literacy Center
The class is open to students, 7 years of age and older including adults of any age. Students must have their own instrument. This class is designed to lay the foundations of violin playing, music reading and basic music theory, while developing ensemble skills, listening skills, and social interaction through playing with others.
Location: Hammond Campus
These classes teach music reading, chords playing, improvisation, and technique development; everything one might need to know in order to play the music they like. The classes are suitable for complete beginner pianists who are currently in high school as well as adults of any age.
Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.
Instructor: Dr. Jerry Voorhees
Room: A162
This is a great sounding ensemble, bringing tremendous enjoyment to its members and audience. The ensemble is suitable for any adult who has ever played a wind instrument regardless of their level of experience.

Tide changes at Alabama after loss of key seniors
Wednesday, September 3, 2014
Eight wins. Fifty-nine top-fives. Ninety-eight rounds in the 60s. Two national titles.
That's all that was missing when Jay Seawell gathered the 2014-15 Alabama men's golf team for its first meeting.
Something was a touch off for Seawell, who's preparing to coach his first team without Trey Mullinax, Cory Whitsett and Bobby Wyatt in four years.
"They're special people who did special things for Alabama. There are many things they did that will be dear to my heart forever," said Seawell, who is in his 13th year at Alabama. "But that's what makes college golf great. We only have four-year contracts with them, at best. There's turnover and I'm excited about this new challenge. I think we can be pretty good in April, we just have to find the confidence and identity of this team."
Unlike a season ago, the Crimson's Tide's identity won't be founded in Walker Cups, senior leadership and collegiate wins. But Seawell is far from hopeless as the season begins Friday at the Carpet Capital Collegiate in Rocky Face, Ga. His team faces a field that includes host Georgia Tech, Auburn and South Carolina.
"The last time I looked, those three guys aren't playing. So we are going to be different," Seawell said. "I think we all understand that they cast a very large shadow and a good shadow. We're not going to run from what they did. We're very proud of that.
"But this is a different team and ... we have to find a way to play golf and practice with a clean slate instead of carrying what other people of done."
Finding a new identity means finding new leaders. Seawell may not have to look any further than his 2014 national championship team, where sophomore Robby Shelton and junior Tom Lovelady played key roles.
Shelton, the No. 2 player in the 2013-14 Golfweek/Sagarin Individual Rankings, was statistically one of the best players in the country last year as rookie, and Seawell will tell you that he was the best. He stepped in as a freshman and led his three senior teammates in scoring average, posting a 70.10, and won two events.
But that's where the experience ends.
Outside of Lovelady and Shelton, only two players logged a round last year – Gavin Moynahan (9) and Robby Prater (6). There are zero seniors on the roster.
Seawell expects good things from Moynihan, who will miss the first tournament of the year playing for his native Ireland in the World Amateur Team Championships, Sept. 10-13. Freshmen Jonathan Hardee and Tyler Hitchner and sophomore Dru Love, son of Davis Love III, will step in and start alongside Lovelady and Shelton in Georgia.
Alabama sealed its second-straight national championship with a 4-1 win over Oklahoma State in the match play final at Prairie Dunes Country Club. The lone blemish on the scoreboard belonged to Lovelady, who fell to Oklahoma State's Wyndham Clark 3 and 1.
But even in defeat Seawell finds a silver lining for Lovelady, who will be expected to play a leadership role this season.
Lovelady battled back from being 5 down through 11 holes, winning Nos. 12-14 and cutting Clark's lead to two. That's the player Seawell wants to see this year.
"That stretch, from 11 to 17, you could see him grow as a player. I think his mind and confidence will round out a lot," Seawell said. "He has the chance to really break out and be a star."
Said Lovelady: "I made the turn and realized that I'm not out of it. Match play is all about momentum. I'm still learning about the whole emotional part, but that was really big (for me)."
He's spent the past three years, one of which was a redshirt season, picking up on cues from the seniors that have moved on. Now he's expected to step up as an upperclassmen.
"I've always had someone older than me being around. It's a different feeling," Lovelady said. "The added competition (the three seniors) brought to every practice helped me more than I realized.
"I'm excited. We will be a good team."
Lovelady posted a 72.67 scoring average last season; his best finish was a seventh-place showing at the Jerry Pate National Intercollegiate.
That's a far cry from the All-American efforts of Mullinax, Whitsett and Wyatt, but Seawell isn't looking for three clones to replace his all-star trio.
What he saw in that meeting room wasn't exactly clear, outside of the fact that it's a new team. But he'll find out a little more this weekend in Georgia.

Altera Corp. Stock Upgraded (ALTR)
TheStreet) -- Altera (Nasdaq: ALTR) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, good cash flow from operations, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.Editor's Note: Any reference to TheStreet Ratings and its underlying recommendation does not reflect the opinion of TheStreet, Inc. or any of its contributors including Jim Cramer or Stephanie Link. NEW YORK (
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 6.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 3.4%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has slightly increased to $130.76 million or 3.19% when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of -8.14%.
- Despite currently having a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.42, it is higher than that of the industry average, inferring that management of debt levels may need to be evaluated further. Even though the debt-to-equity ratio shows mixed results, the company's quick ratio of 4.94 is very high and demonstrates very strong liquidity.
- The gross profit margin for ALTERA CORP is currently very high, coming in at 70.81%. Regardless of ALTR's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, ALTR's net profit margin of 21.77% compares favorably to the industry average.
- ALTERA CORP's earnings per share declined by 16.2% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has suffered a declining pattern of earnings per share over the past two years. However, we anticipate this trend to reverse over the coming year. During the past fiscal year, ALTERA CORP reported lower earnings of $1.36 versus $1.71 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.42 versus $1.36).

Like a song I could listen to over and over, I'm stuck watching Pinot's vines on repeat. This Indonesian artist's channel is full of speedy process videos that are are an absolute delight to watch. It's more than just watching him draw, though. Pinot always starts from scratch, beginning with a blank paper and telling fun visual stories along the way. Many incorporate elements from the world around the paper, making doodles that literally come off the page. It's amazing to think of how challenging it must be to not only draw and record these concepts, but to have only a few seconds to execute them. Each one is like watching a magic illusion unfolding before your very eyes!See More »

I got introduced to Helen Cann's work via twitter the other day and was immediately side-tracked by her crazy detailed hand-drawn city map of Brighton (see above). It gets better, visit the map on her site and it comes complete with rollovers from both a local and personal history of all the nooks and crannies in the town's streets and avenues.
Also as immersive (and impressive) is the drawn map she did of the history of coffee houses that began in Exchange Alley (London), starting in 1652. Once again, you can rollover most anything on the map for detailed captions that are sometimes informative and sometimes quirky.
Helen's work is a beautiful nod to the analog world, as it's "...entirely hand produced, mainly in watercolour, coloured pencil, graphite and collage." I'm especially in love with this time-lapse video of her painting up Youthtopia.
You can find more of her works at: helencannfineart.com and helencann.co.uk

It's Friday and it's been a busy week for us here at DA. It's 11 am, the beer is flowing and we are prepping for our tent at Launch Arte Miami tomorrow. If you are in the South Florida area, stop on by and get yourself a coloring book and some other goodies.
We're feeling inspired so we thought we'd inspire you with some delicious treats as well. This morning I scourged the internet for some videos of people drawing on walls. I can watch them continuously and they amaze me every time. Seeing each drawing come together is my favorite part. Watch the videos, then stop lollygagging and get on your own wall drawing submission for our most recent showcase. It's the weekend. Just sayin'.See More »

The Justice Department this week filed suit against the state and its Department of Corrections, alleging they have engaged in a "pattern or practice of discrimination against female applicants for entry-level correctional officer positions."
So what exactly constitutes this discrimination? Apparently, female prison guard applicants have a more difficult time passing a required physical abilities test (PAT) than their male counterparts, which is unacceptable to the Obama Justice Department. "Bringing an end to practices that have a discriminatory impact on the basis of sex," says the press release touting the suit, "is a major priority of the Justice Department and Civil Rights Division."
It wasn't all that long ago that the very idea of hiring women to guard violent men -- even if they were behind bars -- would have been thought unwise if not downright crazy. But we've learned that women can do non-traditional jobs, even excel at them. And we've been reassured by feminists that women would ultimately demonstrate they could perform these jobs just as well as men.
But a funny thing happened on our way to wiping out gender differences. Men, on average, are still bigger and stronger than women. So any job that requires physical strength will find fewer women than men in its ranks. That doesn't mean there aren't some women who outperform some men in physically demanding roles, but it does mean that you're likely to see more men than women pass tests that require high-level physical strength.
Which brings us back to Massachusetts and its Department of Corrections. My colleague at the Center for Equal Opportunity, Roger Clegg, attempted to find out why the Justice Department believes that the PAT "is not job related and consistent with business necessity" and is therefore discriminatory. But no one would talk about the case since it is now in litigation. So he went looking for a description of the offending test and what he found online demonstrates just how topsy-turvy the world of anti-discrimination law has become.

My Minolta XG-M. Was my dear grandmother's camera, and it remains my favorite. Probably will always be.
Good still life!! Chapeau!!
I've still got my old XG-M, and an X700, too. There are things I miss about them...
I love the focus metering on these. Very little doubt that your focus is correct when using this camera.
Very nice piece! Ilove and collect old cameras
Thank you! I love my old cameras and lenses.
i has simular camera, but it was a diffrent brand i think... old is still better most times
I agree. I am a more precise photographer with my old film cameras.
The lenses are better too, and that helps.
The lenses are better too, and that helps.
Oh, neat
Nice camera. Do you still use it frequently?
I have recently come back to it. I found a place which will develop film to negative only, so I can scan the photos I want only. I hope to use it quite a lot in the upcoming year.
Thank you!
Thank you!
ok, good to know. Here in France it is more or less impossible to buy a film. Years ago I used Ilford BW films but these are now impossible to get. I'm looking forward to see some of these pictures in your gallery !
WOW! They look like a really nice camera! Thank you for showing it.
to you and to this charming Minolta girl

I really prefer the more natural appearance of a real branch. Also, even with a fairly small snake, the vine is not self supporting and needs to be attached to something.
Pros: flexible
Cons: less than natural appearance

Great product. My kingsnake has used this since she came to use as a baby. She is still stretching on it at 4ft. long. it has last through kids rearranging the set up and bending it repeatedly. We keep one side tucked under the water bowl and the other under the edge of the cave with no breakage.
Pros: Easy to use, duable
Cons: Can't think of any

Surprise Collab for Dokuro by Star-is-the-bombWatch
©2011-2016 Star-is-the-bomb
I saw Dokuro's drawing of Goku crying and I just wanted to huggle him, so I made a picture about it. I know, the sparky thing on the background looks horrible, but other than that it was a good edit considering I made it in 3 hours, an having being bugged with taking a shower, doing laundry, and talking to friends on IM on Myspace and Chatango, I think I did pretty good. I have to admit though, I give full credit to Dokuro on the original.
I did this back in '10! XD!
The term would more or less be 'collaboration'. A 'commission' implies the other user paid you.
did you color this pic cause it is faboulous

Gumby Stars on Shipping Wars Reality TV Show
Moving Mountains for Gumby.
Your favorite clay stop-motion animation star Gumby now has a reality show episode under his belt. In April 2015, Gumby and the Clokeys (the family that created Gumby) appeared on A&E's Shipping Wars show.
In celebration of Gumby's 60th Birthday, Arizona State University hosted a special Gumby exhibit in a gallery on its Tempe campus. Shipping Wars engaged professional shippers to bid on the opportunity to ship the Gumby exhibit to Arizona. The winning team packed up priceless memorabilia, photos and delicate clay puppets, sets and very tiny fragile props and delivered them to the gallery, 850 miles away across the desert. One set included snowy mountains made of wood and plaster 18' long and 8' high, a ski patrol house, Gumby's winter cabin and snow banks. Packing, loading and this precious cargo was a challenge to say the least.
One of the shippers was so enamored with Gumby, her childhood hero, that she insisted on helping set up the exhibit and she even stuck around afterwards to kick off the exhibit in true Gumby style. You'll have to watch the show to see how the journey and event unfolded.
If you missed the show when it first aired, check the A&E website, YouTube and your local cable listings to see where you can watch it now. You can catch a short clip of it here:

Citrus College Presents Gumby Fest 2015, Sept. 18-20
Gumby's Going to College!
Gumby Fest has a new home – Citrus College in Glendora, California. The second annual Gumby Fest is expanding to fill an entire weekend (Sept. 18-20, 2015) and a larger venue. With so much to see and do, you won't want to miss it.
Gumby turns 60 this year and Citrus is celebrating its centennial, so it's a great time to bring the two together to present the festival that will feature all the fun from the inaugural festival and much more.
"This is such a fortuitous opportunity for our programs," says Robert Slack, Dean of Fine and Performing Arts at Citrus College. "We are 18 months away from finishing a new 30,000 square- foot Fine Arts Complex that will have more than 100 Mac stations to teach design, animation and various other digital media classes."
Gumby Fest will be staged at the college's existing Performing Arts complex that includes the 1,440-seat Haugh Performing Arts Center, a 150-seat "black box" theater, rehearsal halls, computer labs, classrooms, a large technical theater sound stage, dance studio, and a state-of-the-art audio recording complex.
"There are so many related disciplines in the arts that are part of a stop-motion production, so having Citrus present Gumby Fest 2015 will be perfect," said Joe Clokey, son of creator Art Clokey. "I'm sure Gumby Fest 2015 will put smiles on a whole new group of families and animation enthusiasts."
New this year will be the first U.S. Stop-Motion Animation Festival spotlighting the work of students from kindergarten to college, as well as post-collegiate entries.
Festival activities will include more children's art workshops in classrooms, discussion panels with stop-motion animation professionals, screenings of Gumby cartoons and stop-motion animation submissions, as well as an expanded Gumby Through the Years presented by Joe Clokey, son of creator Art Clokey, and more.
Art and Ruth Clokey founded Clokey Films (later renamed Clokey Productions) when they launched Gumby in 1955. The studio moved from Hollywood to a larger facility in Glendora, California in 1960, when they began production on 85 Gumby episodes and 65 Davey and Goliath episodes.
Gumby debuted on NBC's Howdy Doody Show and became an instant success to get his own series on the network. Gumby and his friends starred in more than 209 TV episodes and a movie.
Many of the animators, puppet makers and set designers who worked with the Clokeys in Glendora went on to work for Star Wars, A Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline, James and the Giant Peach and more stop-motion animation and other film classics.
Clokey's son Joe and his wife Joan employ top animators, puppet makers and set designers in the industry (many of whom were mentored by Art himself) as they continue all things Gumby with Premavision, Inc., and Prema Toy, Inc.
A new generation of Gumby fans are enjoying re-mastered Gumby episodes broadcast on Teletoon in Canada and on Kabillion and Ameba TV here in the United States.

"My parents created Gumby as a gift of love to all children, and the child within us all. I'm proud to be ushering Gumby into his sixth decade with this debut event at ASU," said Joe Clokey.
Gallery 100 opens its doors for a unique Gumby birthday bash on Saturday, January 24, 2015.

The Eastern Question will continue to be a menace to the peace of the world until it is rightly settled, as it has been such a menace for over a century. It is therefore a matter of vital concern to us to see to its settlement. If the world continues to be in a disturbed and restless condition, we will suffer along with European nations.

What to Buy (and What Not to Buy) in March
Posted on 2/23/2015 10:14 EST
The weather may be variable, but retailers stick to a seasonal schedule no matter what, and that means savings for the smart consumer. March is the time to focus on filling the larder, spring cleaning, and prepping for warmer weather. Many of our February deals may still be in effect, albeit with smaller selections on goods such as winter apparel and Valentine's Day chocolate.
Use this post-holiday, season-transition month to find bargains on frozen and snack foods, fresh produce, and luggage. Don't join the gym just yet or look for a new vacuum cleaner or TV.

Valentine's Day Leftovers.While the last half of February (directly following Valentine's Day) saw a decent selection of discounted chocolate, those still on the shelves in March will be discounted further -- think 50 percent or more off chocolate with a Valentine's Day theme. Don't expect much choice, though. And don't go looking for cut rates on sexy lingerie -- more attractive deals generally pop up in June.
Frozen Foods.March is National Frozen Food month, so manufacturers and grocers alike pump up promotions on frozen meals and other foodstuffs. Take a tip from extreme couponing and use your coupons during ongoing supermarket sales to stock up on frozen edibles. As mentioned in Cheapism.com's essential pantry staples post, frozen vegetables are long-lasting and nutritious standbys that are building blocks for fast and cheap meals.
Breakfast and Snacks.This month is chock full of deals on popular edibles. In addition to the month-long celebration of frozen food, March 7 is National Cereal Day, March 14 is Potato Chip Day, and March 23 is Chips and Dip Day -- all opportunities to find even better-than-average savings in the grocery aisles. Finally, National Pancake Day falls on March 4, a day when IHop usually goes all out giving away free short stacks of its famous buttermilk pancakes. March 25 is National Waffle Day, when restaurants like Waffle House, Denny's, and Bob Evans historically have offered deals, coupons, and even free waffles.
Seasonal Sporting Gear and Apparel.Ski and snowboard season is coming to a close, so take advantage of retailers' need to clear out old merchandise to leave room for the new. Lower prices on skis, snowboards, and accessories make these wares good to buy in March. Ditto for heavy winter duds -- jackets, hats, and sweaters fall deeper into the clearance bin this month.
Summer Durables.It seems counterintuitive, but March is a good time to buy an air conditioner. Unsold inventory from last year must be cleared out for the new models, and really, who wants an air conditioner in March? To drum up demand, retailers are motivated to cut prices. The same logic holds for barbecue grills.
Luggage.Now that snowbirds have returned and winter travel season is over, it's time to replace that old carry-on. You'll find luggage bargains in March, when the gap between the winter and summer travel seasons means sales slow and new models roll in. Check our recommendations for the best cheap luggage and be on the lookout for deals throughout the month.
Electronics.In general, March is a weird shopping month and not the best time to buy most electronic items. With the Super Bowl long gone and the holiday rush a distant memory, March just doesn't cut it as bargain time for LCD TVs. If you're in the market for a new smartphone and willing to settle for an older model, you should have more luck.
Gym Memberships.Gym memberships are also a bust this month. Gyms are still packed with clients trying to meet their New Year's resolutions while getting ready for bathing suit season. If you can manage on your own, wait until summer when gyms want to entice you inside even though the great outdoors beckon.
Spring Cleaning.While you may be raring to get a head start on spring cleaning, the vacuum industry says "not yet." Turns out, the best time to score a vacuum deal is November. Never mind. Get a jump-start on your spring cleaning without spending a dime by using what you already have on hand; these DIY tips for using common household items will get you going. Or, keep an eye out for coupons on cleaning supplies.
Foods in Season.Eat healthy and cheaply by cooking seasonally. Foods to buy in March include nutritious greens like broccoli, cabbage, spinach, asparagus, and lettuce while winter's bounty of root vegetables such as parsnips, radishes, leeks, and shallots is still available. Artichokes, avocados, peas, lemons, limes, grapefruit, tangerines, and oranges are also plentiful throughout the month. Find everything you need to make a roasted vegetable dish or a colorful salad.

My guy LOVES to eat. But at the end of every meal time when I get him out of his high chair, or when he sees his plate or bowl is empty, he starts crying! Am I starving him?? Should I be giving him more?

I hope Geo will tell us how he was able to hack the PS3, if he does then Sony is screwed.
I hope Geo will tell us how he was able to hack the PS3, if he does then Sony is screwed.
Me too. Sounds like a early eminem.. He should sell that record to blame sony even more.
That was a crazy rap he did, but damn, this dude is cocky as hell.
i like his face expression at 0:09 seconds into the video ROFL.
Xbox360 - hacked from start.. = #1 console system
Iphone = hacked from start = #1 phone
Actually statically speaking, any electronics device in the past that has been hacked as become the most popular and highest selling unit... This can only help sony.
lol that's because no one hacks a product no one has, and if they did it wouldn't be big news.
Friggin awesome. Get that dude a recording contract! Good luck GeoHot.
I agree, look what happened to digi boxes and cable modems, everyone was selling them, and almost everyone wanted one.
This should be in the billboard top 100 in my eyes, lmfao.
ROFL if this gets on itunes.

Early View of C# 7 with Mads Torgersen
Seth Juarez, of Channel 9, interviews Mads Torgersen, product manager of C#, about the development of the next version of the C# language, codenamed C# 7. Alongside a few other features, three major ones are described: pattern matching, tuple syntax and nullable references.
F# Past and Future Discussed at F# Gotham
On October 17th, F# Gotham gathered experts who presented different aspects of the language and tooling such as asynchronous programming, computation expressions, optimization, FParsec and Xamarin.Forms.

Interview with Adam Granicz on WebSharper 3
Version 3 of WebSharper, the F# framework for developing web applications hits RTM this year. We decided to catch up with Adam Granicz, CEO of IntelliFactory, to learn what new features and improvements WebSharper 3 brings.
A Proposal to Add Option Types for References to C# 7
Mads Torgersen, C# language program manager at Microsoft, has recently outlined a proposal for the introduction of option types for references in C# 7. Option types are meant as a means to make the language safer and reduce the occurrence of null reference exceptions, which, as Torgersen says, are rampant in C# since any reference type can reference a null value.
Typescript to Support React
Microsoft have released the beta for TypeScript 1.6, and with it support for React. Program manager Jonathan Turner explains that while the TypeScript team has collaborated with teams responsible for libraries including Dojo, Aurelia, and Angular, React is "an important library" that that has been difficult for TypeScript developers.
Price Drop and Extension Marketplace for VS Online
When TFS was first envisioned a decade ago, it was meant to be an all-encompassing ALM solution.

In response, they are reducing the price of VS Online and creating a new marketplace for third-party tools.
TFS Power Tools is Now Available for Visual Studio Express
Starting with this release, TFS 2015 Power Tools will support all major editions of Visual Studio include the VS Express variants. Previously you need to have Visual Studio Pro or higher to use this set of extensions.

TFS2015 was originally intended to launch alongside VS2015 in July, but was held back for final polishing and bug fixes. The wait is over and TFS2015 RTM is now available. Among the many changes included are the new build system and greater Git support.

University of Gothenburg
To study the effects of ocean acidification, ten huge plastic containers called mesocosms are placed in the Gullmar Fjord in Sweden. The project is unique: mesocosms of this size have never been used for such a long period of time. The experiment is part of a worldwide research project, and includes researchers from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
This is the largest and longest experiment on the impact of climate change on marine ecosystems that have been carried out to this date. A team of sixty international researchers are for five months now based at the Sven Lovén Centre for Marine Sciences, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. The research project in the Gullmar Fjord will run from January to June, under the leadership of top German researcher Ulf Riebesell.
The mesocosms has been lowered into the fjord with the help of divers from the research vessel Alkor. Each mesocosm will now enclose 55,000 litres of seawater, containing organisms from the winter waters of the Gullmar Fjord.
Carbon dioxide is added to half of the mesocosms and the researchers are going to observe the effect of different acidity levels on marine plants and animal plankton by monitoring the plankton over many generations and measuring the chemistry of the water every day. They will also going to add herring and cod larvae to see how they develop in the enclosed seawater.
Similar studies have been carried out previously on a smaller scale in Polar environments, off the coast of Hawaii and off the Finnish and Norwegian coasts. However, mesocosms of this size have never been used for such a long period of time.
Watch a film about the mesocosms here: http://www.geomar.de/en/discover/films/ocean-acidificationan-ecosystem-facing-dissolution/
The BIOACID (Biological Impacts of Ocean ACIDification) project is being coordinated by Ulf Riebesell, Professor of Biological Oceanography at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel, Germany. The 60 or so researchers participating in BIOACID in the Gullmar Fjord come from Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, Sweden and Finland.
