Sony agrees settlement with George Hotz (aka Geohot) in PS3 jailbreaking case
Sony Computer Entertainment America has agreed to settle its lawsuit against George Hotz (aka Geohot), which claimed that he posted information about the "security system in the PlayStation 3 videogame console and software" that "could be used to circumvent the security system in the console and allow the playing of pirated videogames".
The claim was original filed in January with federal court in San Francisco, California. However, litigation has now ceased with the settlement.
As part of the agreement, serial hacker and iPhone jailbreaker Geohot has consented to a permanent injunction preventing him from reposting the original security system information.
"It was never my intention to cause any users trouble or to make piracy easier," says Hotz, "I'm happy to have the litigation behind me."
It's a sentiment shared with Sony: "[We are] glad to put this litigation behind us," says Riley Russell, general counsel for SCEA. "Our motivation for bringing this litigation was to protect our intellectual property and our consumers. We believe this settlement and the permanent injunction achieve this goal.
"We want our consumers to be able to enjoy our devices and products in a safe and fun environment and we want to protect the hard work of the talented engineers, artists, musicians and game designers who make PlayStation games and support the PlayStation Network.
"We appreciate Mr. Hotz's willingness to address the legal issues involved in this case and work with us to quickly bring this matter to an early resolution."
Sony has also confirmed that Geohot was not behind any of the recent attacks on Sony's internet services and websites.

DG Minor Division
Re-Max Universal Real Estate squared off twice this past week with Lexicon Construction, coming away with two wins by the scores of 14-4 and 8-4. In the first game, Joe Bell had two clutch hits, knocking in four runs and giving Re-Max the early lead. Patrick Berndt continued to swing a hot bat with three hits, including a triple and home run, while Manuel Barcenas three hits and Kenny Lehrs two hits and three runs scored helped to spark rallies. On the mound Kenny Lehr blanked Lexicon during his three innings of work, while Anthony Romano came on to pitch well over the last two innings to wrap up the win. For Lexicon, Tommy Vonortas had a two-run homer, while David Hazin, Joey Pallazzolo and George Holevas each had solid hits for their team.
In the second game between these two clubs, Re-Max jumped out to an early 5-0 margin, but Lexicon fought back on a two-run fourth inning homer by Mark McClean and a two-run double off the bat of David Hazin. For Re-Max, Patrick Berndt opened the game with three innings of shutout ball, which gave his team the momentum they needed for the win, while Dennis Brennan had great game with a three-run triple and a great catch and tag on a close play at the plate that halted Lexicons rally in the fifth. David Legaz had an important RBI during Re-Maxs second inning rally, while Patrick Thompson, DJ Rooney and Ediz Serman each scored during the inning.
In a well-played game by both teams, Western Beef beat Millco Taping by a score of 8-4. Mike Formato continued his strong play by scoring three runs and pitching three innings, giving up only two runs. Jeffrey Johnson and Eric Breidbart scored two runs each for Western Beef. A strong defensive effort was put in by Western Beef catcher Dean Lahana, who also got on base twice. Mathew Corchado reached base all three times up for Millco and scored one run. Nicholas Castagliola contributed for Millco by also scoring a run while getting on base twice.
In a wild rematch, Western Beef outlasted Millco Taping by a score of 13-12. Anthony Gismundi continued his strong hitting and scored one run for Western Beef. Vinny Depperman and Chris Coppolino played strong games, while also scoring a run each. A good all-around effort was put in by Frank Obidienzo, Jon Pezzino, Nick Psoras and Mark Schmidt for Western Beef. John Giantiempo, Nicholas Castagliola and Alesio Santoro scored two runs each as Millco came back after falling behind by seven runs, scoring six runs in the last inning and falling just one run short.

"Fascinating….A highly readable history of the conflict." —New York Times Book Review
In The Great Gamble, a groundbreaking account of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, former NPR Moscow correspondent Gregory Feifer vividly depicts the war that contributed greatly to the demise of the USSR, and that offers striking lessons for the 21st century, as well. Told from the perspective of the Russians who fought it, The Great Gamble offers valuable insight into the history of Afghanistan's troubled government and the rise of the Mujahideen and Al-Qaeda. In the words of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, "Feifer has done truly extraordinary research… For all its heft, [The Great Gamble] is an effortless read—an unusual and gratifying combination."
Editorial Reviews
The New York Times
Historians who have written in English about the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan have focused on the Afghan, U.S., and Pakistani side of the conflict. They have had good reasons for this emphasis: the Afghan resistance and the wily deal making that kept it in business comprise one of the best stories of the Cold War. But history needs a corrective, and Gregory Feifer, NPR's Moscow correspondent, has written The Great Gamble: The Soviet War in Afghanistan to provide it. His narrative starts with the fall of Mohammed Daoud Khan in 1978 and ends with the Soviet withdrawal across the Uzbek Friendship Bridge in 1989. It focuses almost exclusively on the Soviet side throughout.
Feifer's preferred source material is his own interviews with Soviet veterans, as well as some text previously available only in Russian. The Russian perspective is also his; even some of his transliteration of Afghan names looks like it has gone through an intermediate Russian transliteration first. Feifer is, for once, a writer on Afghanistan unbewitched by the romance of the Afghan insurgency and the David-and-Goliath mythology of the conflict. Underdog though the Afghan resistance was, it was also a well-funded, politically calculated, and deeply factionalized insurgency that enjoyed the canny support of the U.S. The Valley of Elah would have been a much different place if David carried the Hebrew equivalent of a Stinger missile in his sling. Feifer's account focus on the experience of Soviet soldiers, who for obvious reasons remember Afghanistan unsentimentally.
The most compelling material, in fact, is not breathless tales of men in war (although there are some of those), but the description of the snake pit of palace intrigue that killed Daoud and his successors, Taraki and Hafizullah Amin. At each step the Soviets lurk in the background, and through a thick archival fog Feifer narrates the confused machinations of Politburo puppet masters who conferred on when to poison Afghan presidents and when to invade. The distrust and infighting among powerful Soviet-leaning Afghans themselves is told neatly here, with attention to the odd details (the KGB tried to poison Amin, but Amin's Coca-Cola rendered the poison chemically inert) that determined the course of the war.
On questions of strategy -- how the Soviets thought they could win in Afghanistan in the first place -- Feifer is regrettably too silent. But his interviews with Soviet veterans suggest that it didn't much matter: the Soviet military, in its own men's retelling, was so decrepit that one could hardly imagine it faring well against any determined enemy. Soldiers suffered from bowel disorders and chronic hepatitis. They looted to supplement their rations and wore strips of tent insulation as socks. It seems at times as if the Red Army never resupplied after the Second World War. Indeed, one soldier recalls being issued rotten meat rations in metal containers marked with their year of production, which was 1942.
What baffles and impresses about the Soviet army in Afghanistan is that it operated as long as it did, and with as little outcry from its soldiers and their families. This silence speaks more to the muffled fear of Soviet society than to the horrors of war in Afghanistan. Those horrors defy exaggeration. Mujahedin left corpse-ridden landscapes -- think Vlad the Impaler on a bad day. They flayed alive captured soldiers by cutting the skin around the belt, then yanking the loose skin up over the head of the soldier and tying it off neatly up top, like a potato sack. The Soviets Feifer interviews sound, in turn, haunted by their own atrocities. In one case an Afghan friendly to the occupiers rode in a Soviet helicopter and pointed out his house to the Russians. The gunner, perhaps thinking that the Afghan was indicating a target, destroyed the house. The Afghan wailed in distress, so to save paperwork, the Soviets just threw him out of the helicopter.
The brutality eventually wore the Soviets down. It wore them down both in Afghanistan and at home. Ordinary Muscovites came to know names like "Panjshir" and "Paktia," much in the same way "Panjwaii" has entered the Canadian mental gazetteer and "Falluja" and "Tora Bora" have entered the American one. What started as a half-baked, ill-coordinated invasion never got much more sophisticated, even as it grew to troop strengths of 100,000 and above. Even the straitened Soviet press picked up on the futility. Artyom Borovik, a journalist for the Soviet equivalent of Life, wrote about soldiers' discontent. And in the years after the war, Soviet veterans organized, demanding better treatment. Just like the Arab mujahedin who returned home after fighting against the Soviets, these veterans became known in their own society as Afghans (afghantsy) and reintegrated poorly.
Feifer's book contains no historical revelations, and as a yarn it suffers by comparison to other books about the Soviet occupation, most prominently the early sections of Steve Coll's Ghost Wars. But the emphasis on the Soviet side offers a new layer of misery to our understanding of the conflict. Feifer's own sensibilities lead him to wonder whether Soviet-style bungling may have played a role in U.S. forays into Iraq and Afghanistan. This interpretation is fair enough; the needless fog of war in the early days of Iraq does sound like it echoed the confusion of Soviet forces at the beginning of their invasion.
But the wretched state of affairs in the Soviet military can compel the opposite interpretation as well. Where the Soviets ate rancid meat from ancient ration packs, U.S. soldiers eat Skittles in lovingly packed MREs. Well-stocked, sterile field hospitals tend to the smallest complaints of U.S. soldiers; the Soviets had typhus. The comparison between the U.S. and the Soviet armies is, in other words, strained at best. Whether comparisons to the British or Macedonians are more apt remains an open question. --Graeme Wood

Last Meetup we narrowed our list of five projects to the two that we liked best. But then couldn't shave down any further. ;-)
So, we're going forward with both of them simultaneously!
For now, we will just call them the "School Project" and the "Web Project" and maybe cook up some better titles at our May Meetup.
If you want to help us plan ahead for the School Project, bring your ideas of how best to locate the elementary schools to contact. We will focus on the Sacramento Public School District (possible criteria to consider: large percentage school lunch program, no science specialist, no school librarian).
For the Web project, you can read the 9 two-page stories at these links. At the meetup, we will want you to recommend your top 3 favorites, in order. We will go from there.
Newcomers welcome! - Hope to see you there.

Steve Carell ("The 40-Year-Old Virgin," TV's "The Office"), Hollywood's leading funnyman, stars in the hilarious comedy that's bursting with charm - a movie you'll watch again and again. Advice columnist Dan Burns (Carell) is an expert on relationships, but somehow struggles to succeed as a brother, a son and a single parent to three precocious daughters. Things get even more complicated when Dan finds out that the woman he falls in love with is actually his brother's new girlfriend. Carell is joined by a brilliant all-star supporting cast, including Juliette Binoche, Dane Cook, John Mahoney and Dianne Wiest, for a heartfelt, fun-filled comedy that's "laugh-out-loud funny" - Steve Oldfield, FOX.

Customer review by molly2040
The reason this movie is getting bad reviews is not because Steve Carell or the movie itself was anything but good, but because Steve Carell's out of the ordinary performance threw viewers for a loop. No, "Dan in Real Life" is not Carell's usual goofy comedy; however, instead it is rather gentle, and real. The movie is also not a typical romantic comedy because it's simple, yet unpredictable. If one watches the movie without thinking it's going to be silly and crazy like most of Carell's movies, it's understandable that they might think they're not getting it.
Customer review by rodbo069
This was nothing like what I expected. The only reason the end of the movie was seen, was because my wife was watching it, also. She liked it, I didn't care for it. It's not his typical comedy you would expect.

Picture: CĀĀĀĀ
Sound: C-ĀĀĀĀ Extras: DĀĀĀĀ Main Programs: B+
So the British have the Blues.Ā Who knew?Ā Not this
obviously ignorant American music fan.
Oh sure, weÆre all aware of the influence Blues had on
Eric Clapton.Ā But, really, does anyone
else in pop music from the last 40 or 50 years jump out as being a) British and
b) Bluesy?
Turns out, though, that a number of our most celebrated
musicians of the various British invasions were Blues-inspired.Ā And not just any Blues inspired them Ś it
was the work of John Mayall, a pioneering musician who inspired Clapton,
ClaptonÆs first band The Yardbirds, Mick Taylor of the Rolling Stones and Mick
Fleetwood, John McVie and Peter Green who were all, at one time or another, in
Fleetwood Mac.
Not too bad for a guy who has limited name recognition on
this side of the pond.
John Mayall: The Godfather of
British Blues/The Turning Point sets out to change all
that.Ā And while a Brit audience will
take more from whatÆs presented on this disc, itÆs not bad viewing for American
music fans, as well.
The disc contains two programs, The Godfather of
British Blues and The Turning Point. The former is a BBC-created
special that chronicles the influence Mayall has had on British musicians in
the run-up to a 70th birthday party that will see Mayall and
Clapton, a former member of MayallÆs Bluesbreakers band, reunite for the first
time since the late æ60s.Ā The latter
program is a short documentary (clocking in at 24 minutes) produced in 1968-69
centering on MayallÆs transition from straight-up Blues to a simpler, stripped
down sound.
Both programs are decent watches, packed with information
about and testimonials about Mayall and his importance and impact.Ā On The Godfather of British Blues,
Mayall has a larger speaking role than he does on The Turning Point.Ā (Suppose he was in that ōDonÆt bug me, IÆm a
brooding artistö mindset?)Ā WhatÆs
revealed in the first program is a soft-spoken, talented artist whose personality
off-stage betrays the charismatic and affecting musician on-stage. We also see
just what made this guy so influential on so many other British artists at the
But, when watching this disc, do yourself a favor: Watch The
Godfather of Blues before The Turning Point.Ā It might be tempting to watch the older
program first, but if you do and you have no prior background on who Mayall is
and what his music stood for, it will make little to no sense.Ā ItÆs minimalist and avant-garde to a point,
and will leave you scratching your head.Ā
If you watch the BBC documentary first, though, youÆll get a more
complete picture of Mayall Ś it even includes clips from The Turning Point.
For as good as the programs are, though, itÆs a shame a
greater care wasnÆt put into the sound, video and extras quality of the
disc.Ā The only extra to speak of is a
photo gallery that is as much a throwaway extra as you can get.Ā The Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono audio on both
programs is lackluster, which is understandable to a point for The Turning
Point but wholly unforgivable for the BBC doc.Ā The full frame video quality on the longer program is decent
enough, but the same canÆt be said for the shorter one.Ā ItÆs scratchy and difficult to watch.Ā ItÆs a beat up old short doc, I know, but
someone should have gone in to clean it up at least a little bit.
All in all, John
Mayall: The Godfather of British Blues/The Turning Point is a decent
enough package for the discerning music fan looking to expand their
horizons.Ā Just donÆt go into it
thinking youÆre getting the best possible presentation of the most important
musician youÆve never heard of.
-ĀĀ Dante A.

Garden Grocer was great! They delivered directly to our DisneyWorld resort. It was great to have fresh and healthy snacks during our vacation. Excellent customer service and prices!
This is the way to go at the resorts. I have taken a taxi and went shopping myself. Spent way too much. By supplying Garden Grocers with my list I didn't over shop and everything was wonderful and fresh. Highly recommend and will do this again.
We were so impressed with how easy it was to order our groceries from Garden Grocer and have them delivered! What a treat to have them delivered right to our hotel room, with the cold items still cold! The quality of the fruit we ordered was top notch!

Description from Vampire Chickie Ravin: Ok, to explain both name and design. Our roommate and I want to start a web based business that sells goth/alternative jewelry, and goth clothing for ALL sizes, from extremely small, to extremely large. We decided to call it DigiGoth. I see this necklace starting with a line of black, a filigree, line of red, filigree, green (symbolising Digital), filigree, then repeat,after the last filigree a red jasper bead, another filigree, then the red jasper pendant, then just repeat the process backward, lol. The pins, or some kind of small gauge wire would be threaded through the filigree beads to hang the skulls, alternating copper and silver. Wow so glad to have discovered that you can actually describe what you're trying to do!! LOL

Ravin, you described it really well — I can picture it in my mind and not feel confused! LOL Great pick and name, too!
I forgot to mention that I like your new photo!
Very cool pick, Ravin, and thanks for the great description! I think your idea would make a really interesting piece. Good luck with your business…I know a few people who would probably be interested once you get going!
Very Funny! What a great idea..You explained yourself perfectly! Great pick good job girls
Excellent job of explaining. Good luck on your venture. This definitely is not my style; however, there are those out there who would love what you do. Leave the skulls off and I could maybe get into the colorful necklace with filigree. LOL. I am an olf fogie who doesn't know any thing about goth or alternative. Sorry.
Thanks so much everyone!! Hugs to all of you! =)

My style is based upon experiential learning. I want students to learn to assess their skill sets, and then I want them to take the steps to improve what needs improvement.
