Panetta Vows US Revenge Against al-Qaeda After Algeria Siege
Al-Qaeda Not Actually Involved, But Panetta Says Attack Proves Need to 'Fight Back'
Al-Qaeda wasn't actually behind the hostage siege in Algeria, which ended with the deaths of at least three Americans and a lot of other foreign and domestic workers. It wasn't even the loosely related "al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb," though the attackers said they did it on their behalf.
Still, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta insisted that the attack proved that "al-Qaeda is committed to creating terror wherever they are" and vowed US retaliation against them for the incident.
The comments reflect Western efforts to take advantage of the Algeria incident to push an agenda of aggressive warfare across the region, with British Prime Minister David Cameron vowing decades of attacks, and French President Francois Hollande saying the hostage blowback proved their invasion of Mali was justified.
The group behind the attacks issued a statement of their own, threatening more attacks if France doesn't end their offensive in Mali. Since both sides seem to be using one another's attacks as excuses to keep escalating, this regional war could continue to worsen for quite some time.

Peppermint 7 Released
Peppermint 7 launched a few days ago. Peppermint is a lightweight Ubuntu-based Linux distribution with an emphasis on speed and simplicity. Although the name is similar to Linux Mint, the projects aren't directly related. Peppermint originally was envisioned as a "spicier" alternative to Mint—whatever that means! Many distros come with a wide assortment of feature-rich applications, and that's great for power users who need those apps. But older machines can struggle to cope with those demanding distros. Peppermint solves the problem by offering a carefully curated suite of web apps that perform tasks traditionally handled by native apps. It's an approach that will be familiar to any Chromebook users reading this article.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Feds to Boulder DA: Keeping marijuana away from schools a 'core responsibility'

The raids continue and our tax payers dolloars continue to be wasted at a time where our economy could sure use a boost in revenue instead continuing to waste funds on useless raids. What good will this do for the community? It's been proven dispensaries do not cause additional crime in areas, they simply help medical marijuana patients legally obtain their medicine at a safe and reliable facility. Taking away these places will just send medical patients to street dealers where they could end up with tainted meds or worse...

Two years ago, Jon Jones and Urijah Faber played themselves in a K-Swiss commercial with fictional prankster "Kenny Powers." These days, they also like to watch fights together, according to this week's "UFC: Ultimate Insider."
The UFC light-heavyweight champ and perennial bantamweight contender were mic'd up when they sat cageside for July's UFC 162, and their reactions to Chris Weidman's historic upset of Anderson Silva are priceless (skip to the 3:00 mark).
In attempting to comprehend Silva's loss, Jones also captures the feelings of so many fans who felt Silva had gone too far in clowning the new champion.
"You've gotta respect the game, man," he said. "I know Anderson respects the game, but you've gotta respect the game. None of us are invincible."
Jones fights next at this weekend's UFC 165 event, where he meets Alexander Gustafsson in the headlining bout.

Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer
- Review Date: June 2, 2014
- Rated: G
- Genre: Family and Kids
- Release Year: 1985
- Running Time: 85 minutes
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this animated movie, originally released in 1985, was the only feature-length film in the Rainbow Brite product line. The brand sold greeting cards, books, toys, and clothing and made a TV series designed to appeal to little girls. Rainbow Brite herself is a cute, heroic protagonist with a beautiful white horse who lives in Rainbow Land and is charged with "saving the colors" of the universe. Although this may sound pastoral and gentle, the movie is far from that. It's an adventure with nonstop cartoon action, loud sound effects (the shooting is unrelenting), and a confusing array of villains: drooling and toothy ogres, a cackling wicked princess, sea serpents, menacing robots, and more. The heroes are either captured or are in grave danger many times, and the stakes are high: If Rainbow Brite and her friends are not successful in their quest, all life in the universe will be extinguished.
What's the story?
In RAINBOW BRITE AND THE STAR STEALER, the universe is in danger of being stuck in an eternal winter -- dark, stormy, and colorless. Ultimately, without light, all life will be destroyed. It's simply because a selfish, vain princess wants to own Spectra, the planet-sized diamond through which all light must pass. Rainbow Brite and her trusty rainbow-steed Starlite are the universe's only hopes to thwart the Dark Princess' evil plan. The colorful heroes set out from their wonderful, peaceful world of Rainbowland and are met by an assortment of villains and perilous events that threaten them. It's not only the princess and her horde of soldiers, robots, and ogres who are after them but also Rainbow Brite's perennially jealous antagonist Murky (with his dimwitted henchman Lurky) as well. But scores have a way of being settled; Rainbow Brite finds her own allies (including a wise sprite and her own magic powers) to even the odds.
Is it any good?
It appears that this brand was created in 1985 by Hallmark in an effort to fill a need for merchandise and programming that might gain traction in a predominantly boy-oriented "action" marketplace. This cartoon adventure, however, is a disaster. Other than a perky, brave heroine and some appealing sidekick characters, this is an overlong (even at 85 minutes), super-loud barrage of action sequences that place the heroes in constant danger. Starlite (the horse) alone is captured, goes over a waterfall, gets trapped in an elevator, is hurled from a cliff, is lassoed, and is shot at, chased, and pummeled by rocks. Every other likable being is subject to similar treatment. It's a dizzying array of ugly baddies, with little humor, little warmth, and, despite a female protagonist, little to recommend it.

Families can talk about the partnership of kids' movies and the makers of kids' products. Does a movie have to be good to help sales? What can parents do to help kids be thoughtful consumers at an early age?
Talk about or make a list of all the bad guys in this movie. Was it confusing to do so? Could you keep track of everyone? Or did you like watching many different villains?
Krys was surprised by Rainbow Brite's talent for heroism. What did he expect "a girl" could do? How did she change his mind?

-by Daniel Mogollon, Staff Writer; Image: While starring at Nease, Tim Tebow became a very highly recruited quarterback. (Image Source: Associated Press)
The South Carolina legislature has passed the Equal Access to Interscholastic Activities Act, aka the "Tim Tebow Law", which will permit home-schooled students to take part in extracurricular activities offered by the public school system, including athletics. Governor Nikki Haley signed the act into law on Monday.
What does a South Carolina law about home-schoolers have to do with Tim Tebow, the New York Jets backup quarterback?
Tebow was home-schooled growing up in the state of Florida and because of a Florida state law from 1996, he was allowed to play quarterback at Allen D. Nease High School in Ponte Vedra, Florida.
In addition to home-schooled students, the Equal Access to Interscholastic Activities Act in South Carolina covers charter-school students, as well as those from the Governor's School of Arts.
Republican state senator Chip Campsen wrote the law.
"When you have these extracurricular activities [you] learn what it takes to be successful and how to handle success, how to handle defeat," Campsen said. "What's not fair is making the parents pay property taxes to support the school and then denying them access to activities."
However, not everyone in South Carolina is in favor of the act, arguing that students who are not part of the system enjoying benefits offered by the public schools is unfair to the public school students.
South Carolina has become the 30th state to pass such legislation. In February of this year, the state of Virginia also adopted their version of the "Tim Tebow Law."
Daniel Mogollon is a member of the Pro Football Writers of America and the Football Writers Association of American. He is also a voter for the Thorpe and the Rotary Lombardi Award, as well as the Latino Sports MVP Awards.

God according to the Word is Father- Abba Father. Jesus is the King. This book felt is a bit weird to me, because Prince and God Are nouns not to be interchanged. I just don't see. Furthermore, when Jesus's disciples asked him about marriage and heaven. Jesus said we will be like angels. Granted Christ and Song of Solomon are of ( I believe, purely, not a Romeo and Juliet type with the tragic ending for the Bible, but rather describes the ardent pursuit of love The Lord has for us and I havent s ...more

Rubby De La Rosa explains why he expects this year to be different
|01.11.14 at 3:18 pm ET
In terms of pure stuff, few pitchers in the Red Sox organization can match the arsenal of Rubby De La Rosa. The 24-year-old can sit in the mid-90s and touch the high-90s with his fastball. He has the ability to generate swings and misses with both a tremendous changeup and slider. His arm is a rarity.
But his performance in 2013, his first year with the Red Sox after coming over from the Dodgers in the August 2012 blockbuster, did not match his pitch mix. He went 3-3 with a 4.26 ERA, 8.5 strikeouts and a jarring 5.4 walks per nine innings while working on limited pitch counts in Triple-A Pawtucket. In 11 big league games (all as a reliever), he allowed seven runs in 11 1/3 innings with six strikeouts and just two walks — but three hit batters.
Yet, with the benefit of hindsight, it's possible to bracket the 2013 season as one that presented De La Rosa — who showed tremendous promise while forging a 3.71 ERA with a strikeout per inning in 60 2/3 innings with the Dodgers in his 2011 big league debut — with unique challenges that will not recur. The right-hander's physical status was something of a work-in-progress in his first full season back from Tommy John surgery. He was dealing with the transition to a new organization, along with the frustrations created by a limited pitch count.
That doesn't excuse all of his 2013 performance, where he appeared distracted at times while on the mound, but it would seem necessary to offer context for some of his struggles.
Some of those limitations that he faced in 2013, De La Rosa insisted at the New Stars for Young Stars fundraiser in support of the Jimmy Fund, are behind the right-hander.
"Finally I feel like 100 percent good, mentally, physically. It's exciting for me. I can't wait for the season to start," said De La Rosa. "I'm not worried right now about [the challenges of 2013]. I'm only worried about my body and what I can do to get better, like I'm feeling right now. It's not easy to go a team and get traded. That was different."
So, too, was the level of confidence with which De La Rosa pitched last year. He suggested that he didn't feel in 2013 like the same pitcher who showed such promise for Los Angeles in 2011.
"Last year I didn't have that feeling," he said. "You can't do it when you're not 100 percent now I can do it. I feel like more comfortable. I feel like super healthy."
De La Rosa has been able to follow a different offseason course this winter. After the team emphasized a need for him to improve his conditioning this offseason, the right-hander said that he has been working out with Red Sox legend and special assistant to the GM Pedro Martinez all winter in hopes of positioning himself to make an impact on the 2014 big league team, whether as a starter or reliever. De La Rosa expressed a preference to start, but suggested that more than anything, he's simply trying to take a step forward to establish himself as a big leaguer.
"If they need me in the bullpen or as a starter, I'm fine with that," said De La Rosa. "In my opinion, I like to be a starter. But if they need me in the bullpen, I'll go to the bullpen and be happy.'

Amazon's globe-encircling cloud infrastructure is compelling to many. From Virginia to California, from Ireland to Singapore, and from Japan to Brazil; wherever you find yourself there's a local instance of the same familiar set of services. And, in all likelihood, Australia will soon be added to the list. For those primarily interested in just serving both Europe and the US, the list of options grows to include Rackspace, GoGrid, CloudSigma and a few others.
And yet, despite the buying power and increasing ubiquity of these larger players, there seems to be plenty of space left for smaller entrants. For prospective customers only concerned with a single country or region, for example, the choices are almost too many to count, and choosing between them becomes a complex and multi-faceted affair.
Take Brightbox, for example. As my family know all too well, those pesky timezones mean that many of my evenings are punctuated with calls to or from the States, where so much of the innovation in this sector continues to take root and grow. Either that, or I'm creeping out of a sleeping house to catch early trains for the 150 mile journey south to London. It was therefore refreshing to talk to someone in this industry whose offices are only 50 miles away in the UK city of Leeds.
Established back in 2005 as a Ruby shop capable of hosting apps on dedicated hardware, Brightbox has evolved to place increasing emphasis upon the provision of infrastructure. In 2010, the company began to seriously explore the possibility of offering a generic cloud infrastructure environment. This was in the days before OpenStack, but Eucalyptus existed and was attracting interest. But according to Brightbox co-founder Jeremy Jarvis, 2010′s Eucalyptus lacked some key resilience features (load balancing, multi-data centre capabilities, etc) that the team believed were critical… so they built their own system from the ground up. And, at the end of September last year, Brightbox Cloud entered general availability.
The Brightbox cloud operates out of two UK data centres, with planning underway for a third. Both data centres are now owned and operated by Telecity, which acquired the two independent data centre providers with whom Brightbox had launched. Brightbox owns the racks and (Dell) hardware, and also ensures provision of redundant network access into the data centres. Customers are predominantly drawn from across Europe, but Jarvis says he's seeing some customers coming from as far away as Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil. The company sees its potential growth through eventual expansion to data centres on the European mainland, but Jarvis says he's "much less interested in setting up yet another" North American operation. The company is profitable, employs ten staff, and is seeing steady growth in usage.
Brightbox does not (yet) offer a web management console, but Jarvis describes this as a conscious decision and also something of an asset. The company has instead focused their attention upon crafting a rich, capable and intuitive API (and associated command-line interface). According to Jarvis, the developers that the company tends to target have responded favourably to the API, describing it as "nice" and "more consistent" than the various APIs offered by Amazon's growing suite of services.
A focus upon developers (and the growing Dev/Ops movement) was also a strategic decision, and Jarvis cites examples in which 'mere developers' have proved instrumental in securing significant contracts with Brightbox from their employers. Corporate purchasing processes may, finally, be evolving. Despite the success of Platform as a Service (PaaS) offerings such as Heroku and EngineYard, Jarvis also suggests that Brightbox is seeing growing evidence that developers are seeking more fine-grained control over infrastructure than PaaS typically offers. A platform abstracts the underlying complexity of infrastructure, making it easier for application builders to focus upon creating the specific services they wish to provide. But abstractions typically require compromises, with configuration decisions being made for everyone on the platform on the basis of 'normal' requirements. For developers with non-normal requirements (and they may actually be the majority of users), IaaS is more likely to offer the fine-grained control that they need.
But the cloud infrastructure world has come a long way since Brightbox began planning their product two years ago. OpenStack has arrived, and (despite a growing body of nay-sayers) is credible. Rackspace, HP, and others are on the cusp of delivering real clouds to real customers on the back of its codeline. Eucalyptus appears to have turned a corner, and pulled back from a brink that I (and others) saw them teetering on the edge of. Canonical's marriage of Ubuntu to OpenStack is now just one of several ways to get the same cloud code, capabilities and apis onto machines running inside your own data centre. Amazon just keeps on doing what Amazon does, incrementally adding features, cutting prices, and becoming ever-harder to not choose.
In that world, surely a little cloud provider operating their own bespoke solution from the wrong end of the Leeds-London railway line, in a country on the wrong side of both the English Channel and the Atlantic Ocean has no hope? Surely they should just pack up shop, and either adopt OpenStack/Eucalyptus fast… or find a new line of work?
Jeremy Jarvis disagrees, vehemently. And he's not alone. Look at Edinburgh's Flexiant, Glasgow's SymetriQ, and a whole host of other companies that have built their own solutions from nothing. Others, of course, have recognised the value in taking OpenStack, Eucalyptus, Microsoft's Windows Azure, and similarly established technologies, and making them their own. Look at Eduserv's Swindon data centre, or the hosted desktops from East Yorkshire's own GoCloud.
So how can Brightbox (or Flexiant, or SymetriQ, or any of the other non-conformers) compete? How, indeed, can they survive? Jarvis suggests that "Buy British" continues to carry weight here. Even without raising the scary (and often, actually, wholly irrelevant) spectre of PATRIOT Act-powered snooping, a significant proportion of UK (or European) companies like the idea of buying services from UK (or European) suppliers. They like that the documentation is spelled correctly. They like that telephone support is (more or less) in their timezone. They like that the development team shows up at local events, and that it's a person buying the drinks in the bar, rather than the disembodied marketing budget of some far-off corporation.
Purchasing decisions for something like cloud infrastructure are complicated. Often, they're probably quite illogical. Price isn't always the deciding factor (and even if it were, smaller providers like Brightbox aren't ridiculously expensive in comparison to their larger competitors). Having been the friendly face at a local developer event might swing that big contract. Or having a "nice" API. Or implementing niche features in firewalls, or networking, or port forwarding might each grab the attention — and loyalty — of specific sectors of the long tail. Tesco might sell 'everything' to 'everyone,' but we still have room in our lives for the SPAR corner shop, and for the upscale deli with the nice cakes.
The same's true in the cloud, although I can't help feeling that we're going to see quite a rapid decline in entirely new cloud infrastructures as the next generation of niche cloud boutiques take OpenStack or Eucalyptus and mould them to their requirements. They probably won't be making those decisions because (like we Clouderati) they agonise endlessly about interoperability or portability or the de facto standard of the Amazon Web Services stack. For most of their SME customers, those things simply don't matter. Instead, they'll be adopting OpenStack or Eucalyptus because the grunt work (and the marketing) has been done. It simply costs less to take something off the shelf than to develop it yourself from scratch. But for companies like Brightbox, where that investment has already been made? Well, for them there may still be plenty of prospective customers out there.

My hubbie never liked consoles but loves Wii.
Review written by
What can I say, we were a lucky few in my family that bought Wii at Xmas time. What we love about Wii Sports is that people who normally don't like to play consoles all love Wii. It is hilarious to watch couch potato men and women suddenly take up the controller and commence bowling and boxing with a belly ache laughter and huge smile.
My hubbie never played a console before even though we have a PS2, but absolutely loves the baseball game. Whilst my brother who is a fan of XBOX would happily return it in favour of the Boxing game on Wii.
So funny for me as I know people in Microsoft but could never really see why XBOX would be a family entertainment system as so many of the games are for over 18 and they are bad in terms of killing and shooting half of the world's population.
If you want to buy a console packed with lots of fun and laughter then buy Wii. It is incredible and we have only played the Wii Sports game. Looking forward to downloading all the old games and others.
Highly recommend this console to all of you. You won't stop laughing and smiling I promise you.

Really annoyed.... we went to IKEA Ashton and saw a sofa in the bargin section, we explained that we live in South Wales and they said it was fine and they would deliver it for £50. We waited over 1 hour to arrange this and spoke to 3 different members of staff who all agreed with the delivery arrangements. We then drove home and a day later got a call saying they would not deliver as it is to far. We then arranged our own delievery service however they had put the sofa back in store despite taking our money. The lady on the phone was awkward and said if we wanted our own deliever then the driver needed to show the reciept whice we had in South Wales.... how was we suppose to get that to him the same day? we were then told to send the driver to the store and buy it again but if someone else bought it then its tough.... even though we owned the sofa as we had already paidfor it.... WASTE OF TIME AND SOOOOO UNORGANISED!!!!!
