Dell has already responded to its major security breach by offering manual removal instructions and a software update — but while the company's speed is commendable, this really needs to stop happening.
New data suggests that Dell, like Lenovo, may have been shipping compromised systems for the past few months. Research on the size and scope of the flaws is still ongoing.
When Microsoft shopped the Surface Pro to HP and Dell, both companies reluctantly accepted. Lenovo? Not so much.
Dell just bought information services giant EMC in the largest tech deal ever. The move gives Dell new positioning in the cloud services market.
According to Acer's founder, Stan Shih, the company would welcome a takeover effort or interest from its competitors.
PC sales have cratered in recent months, even as Windows 10 advances. Research firms are no longer predicting recovery at any point for the consumer market.
Next to gamers, engineers put the most stress on laptop performance. Excellent displays, high-end graphics, and plenty of RAM are the norm. We examine some of the very best laptops that can do the work a typical engineer requires on the road.
A new report shows that Intel's Core M performance depends a great deal on which OEM hardware you buy in the first place. While this has always been true to some extent, the gaps are significantly larger this generation.
College life has changed dramatically in the last decade. Many classes are being offered online, academic research has moved to the digital arena, and now many assignments are turned in through e-mail attachments. Modern college students are increasingly reliant on computers, and that means a laptop is most certainly in your future. So, how do you decide which one to buy?
Photo editing on the road is always challenging, with the need for a high-quality display, fast graphics, and lots of RAM at odds with carrying a lightweight laptop. Here are some of the best laptops we've found for the road-warrior photographer.

Super sad supercut Jun 06 2016
A collection of super sad moments from movies like The Iron Giant, E.T., Wrath of Khan, Up, and Old Yeller. This'll have you sobbing in 3 minutes or your money back.
A collection of super sad moments from movies like The Iron Giant, E.T., Wrath of Khan, Up, and Old Yeller. This'll have you sobbing in 3 minutes or your money back.
From The Intercept and director A.J. Schnack, a simple and powerful short film about more than a dozen mass shootings that have occurred in the US since 2011.
A scene of tragedy unfolds, accompanied by fear, chaos and disbelief. As Speaking is Difficult rewinds into the past, retracing our memories, it tells a story about a cumulative history that is both unbearable and inevitable.
Fuck, that was difficult to watch. When Sandy Hook came up, I just lost it. We should be deeply deeply ashamed that that happened and we did nothing about it.
In this story by Rafael Zoehler, a father who dies at 27 wrote his son a series of letters to be opened at several of life's milestones, including WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR FIRST KISS, WHEN YOU BECOME A FATHER, and WHEN YOUR MOTHER IS GONE. This letter was entitled "WHEN I'M GONE":
If you're reading this, I'm dead. I'm sorry. I knew I was going to die.
I didn't want to tell you what was going to happen, I didn't want to see you crying. Well, it looks like I've made it. I think that a man who's about to die has the right to act a little bit selfish.
Well, as you can see, I still have a lot to teach you. After all, you don't know crap about anything. So I wrote these letters for you. You must not open them before the right moment, OK? This is our deal.
I love you. Take care of your mom. You're the man of the house now.
Love, dad.
PS: I didn't write letters to your mom. She's got my car.

Oh man, this episode of This American Life on desegregation and the Normandy School District (aka the Missouri district that Michael Brown attended) just totally wrecked me. Tears of sadness and rage.
Right now, all sorts of people are trying to rethink and reinvent education, to get poor minority kids performing as well as white kids. But there's one thing nobody tries anymore, despite lots of evidence that it works: desegregation. Nikole Hannah-Jones looks at a district that, not long ago, accidentally launched a desegregation program.
America likes to pride itself on its focus on the importance of education and everyone getting a crack at living the American Dream, but as this story makes clear, neither of those things are actually true. See also part two of the series and Hannah-Jones' series on segregation at ProPublica.
I don't quite know what I'm doing to myself these days. Last night was an episode of The Americans in which a marriage was ending, another family was trying to keep itself intact, and a young boy struggles to move on after his entire family dies. This morning, I watched an episode of Mad Men in which a mother tries to reconcile her differences with her daughter in the face of impending separation. And then, the absolute cake topper, a story by Matthew Teague that absolutely wrecked me. It's about his cancer-stricken wife and the friend who comes and rescues an entire family, which is perhaps the truest and most direct thing I've ever read about cancer and death and love and friendship.
Since we had met, when she was still a teenager, I had loved her with my whole self. Only now can I look back on the fullness of our affection; at the time I could see nothing but one wound at a time, a hole the size of a dime, into which I needed to pack a fistful of material. Love wasn't something I felt anymore. It was just something I did. When I finished, I would lie next to her and use sterile cotton balls to soak up her tears. When she finally slept, I would slip out of bed and go into our closet, the most isolated room in the house. Inside, I would wrap a blanket around my head, stuff it into my mouth, lie down and bury my head in a pile of dirty clothes, and scream.
There are very specific parts of all those stories that I identify with. I struggle with friendship. And with family. I worry about my children, about my relationships with them. I worry about being a good parent, about being a good parenting partner with their mom. How much of me do I really want to impart to them? I want them to be better than me, but I can't tell them or show them how to do that because I'm me. I took my best shot at being better and me is all I came up with. What if I'm just giving them the bad parts, without even realizing it? God, this is way too much for a Monday.
Kellan Roberts died suddenly at 22. He had decided to be an organ donor and his heart went to a high school student from Minnesota, Connor Rabinowitz. After receiving the heart, Connor visited Kellan's family in Seattle and met Kellan's sister Erin. After a few years, Erin and Connor, well, just watch...this is a wonderful story well told.
Cord Jefferson with a beautiful piece about his mother, illness, and the importance and difficulty of being kind.
I'd just returned home from a meeting when she called again. It had been only a few hours since we'd last talked and, as she stammered when I picked up, my heart sank with the anticipation of more bad news. "I didn't tell you everything I wanted to earlier," she said after gathering her tongue. "I wanted to say that I'm scared. I know you can't do anything to change this, but it makes me feel better to let you know that I'm afraid."

Mat Kirkby's short film, The Phone Call, won the Best Narrative Short prize at the Tribeca Film Festival and is rumored to be in the running for an Oscar nomination. It features a young woman who works in helpline call office (Oscar nominee Sally Hawkins) taking a call from a distraught man (Oscar winner Jim Broadbent). (via slate)
Update: The video has been taken down from Vimeo, so I've removed the embed. I think it was something about film festival eligibility?
Update: The Phone Call did end up being nominated for an Oscar; here's Kirkby and friends reacting to the nomination.
Thirteen Ways of Looking at Greg Maddux is not really a story about Greg Maddux. Or sports. It's about Jeremy Collins' friend Jason Kenney, demons, self-control, determination, friendship, competitiveness, and loss.
Jason kept a picture of Maddux above his desk in our dorm room at Young Harris College in the north Georgia mountains. A beautiful athlete, the best on campus, Jason played only intramurals and spent serious time at his desk. A physics workhorse and calculus whiz, he kept Maddux's image at eye-level.
Shuffling and pardoning down the aisle to our seats, Jason stopped and squeezed my shoulder. "Look," he said.
Maddux strode toward home, hurling the ball through the night.
It's 2014. I'm thirty-seven. My wife and daughter are both asleep. I'm a thousand miles from the stadium-turned-parking-lot. On YouTube, Kenny Lofton of the American League Champion Cleveland Indians looks at the first pitch for a ball. Inside, low. I don't remember the call. I remember all of us standing, holding our breath. Then I remember light. Thousands of lights. Waves of tiny diamonds. The whole stadium flashing and Jason, who would die five months later on the side of a south Georgia highway, leaning into my ear and whispering, "Maddux."
Great, great story. As Tom Junod remarked on Twitter, "Every once in a while, a writer throws everything he's got into a story. This is one of those stories."
In racing video games, a ghost is a car representing your best score that races with you around the track. This story of a son discovering and racing against his deceased father's ghost car in an Xbox racing game will hit you right in the feels.

Peter Bach, a cancer doctor, writes about losing his wife to cancer.
The streetlights in Buenos Aires are considerably dimmer than they are in New York, one of the many things I learned during my family's six-month stay in Argentina. The front windshield of the rental car, aged and covered in the city's grime, further obscured what little light came through. When we stopped at the first red light after leaving the hospital, I broke two of my most important marital promises. I started acting like my wife's doctor, and I lied to her.
I had just taken the PET scan, the diagnostic X-ray test, out of its manila envelope. Raising the films up even to the low light overhead was enough for me to see what was happening inside her body. But when we drove on, I said, "I can't tell; I can't get my orientation. We have to wait to hear from your oncologist back home." I'm a lung doctor, not an expert in these films, I feigned. But I had seen in an instant that the cancer had spread.
The last sentence here really got to me:
Our life together was gone, and carrying on without her was exactly that, without her. I was reminded of our friend Liz's insight after she lost her husband to melanoma. She told me she had plenty of people to do things with, but nobody to do nothing with.
Bach's discussion of treatment options reminded me of Siddhartha Mukherjee's The Emperor of All Maladies, which is one of my favorite books of recent years. I was also reminded of how doctors die.
A reader saw my post about UPS drivers seldom taking left turns and sent in this story from 2006. In it, Michael Gartner shares the secret to long life relayed to him by his father: no left turns. Among other things:
My mother was a devout Catholic, and my father an equally devout agnostic, an arrangement that didn't seem to bother either of them through their 75 years of marriage. (Yes, 75 years, and they were deeply in love the entire time.) He retired when he was 70, and nearly every morning for the next 20 years or so, he would walk with her the mile to St. Augustin's Church. She would walk down and sit in the front pew, and he would wait in the back until he saw which of the parish's two priests was on duty that morning. If it was the pastor, my father then would go out and take a 2-mile walk, meeting my mother at the end of the service and walking her home. If it was the assistant pastor, he'd take just a 1-mile walk and then head back to the church.
He called the priests "Father Fast" and "Father Slow."
(thx, gloria)
When Owen Suskind was three, a switch flipped within him and he went from a typical chatty rambunctious three-year-old to autistic.
I had just started a job as The Wall Street Journal's national affairs reporter. My wife, Cornelia, a former journalist, was home with him -- a new story every day, a new horror. He could barely use a sippy cup, though he'd long ago graduated to a big-boy cup. He wove about like someone walking with his eyes shut. "It doesn't make sense," I'd say at night. "You don't grow backward." Had he been injured somehow when he was out of our sight, banged his head, swallowed something poisonous? It was like searching for clues to a kidnapping.
After visits to several doctors, we first heard the word "autism." Later, it would be fine-tuned to "regressive autism," now affecting roughly a third of children with the disorder. Unlike the kids born with it, this group seems typical until somewhere between 18 and 36 months -- then they vanish. Some never get their speech back. Families stop watching those early videos, their child waving to the camera. Too painful. That child's gone.
But a tenuous connection remained between Owen and his pre-autistic self: Disney movies. And through them, Owen slowly learns how to communicate with the outside world again.
So we join him upstairs, all of us, on a cold and rainy Saturday afternoon in November 1994. Owen is already on the bed, oblivious to our arrival, murmuring gibberish.... "Juicervose, juicervose." It is something we've been hearing for the past few weeks. Cornelia thinks maybe he wants more juice; but no, he refuses the sippy cup. "The Little Mermaid" is playing as we settle in, propping up pillows. We've all seen it at least a dozen times, but it's at one of the best parts: where Ursula the sea witch, an acerbic diva, sings her song of villainy, "Poor Unfortunate Souls," to the selfish mermaid, Ariel, setting up the part in which Ursula will turn Ariel into a human, allowing her to seek out the handsome prince, in exchange for her voice.
When the song is over, Owen lifts the remote. Hits rewind.
"Come on, Owen, just let it play!" Walt moans. But Owen goes back just 20 seconds or so, to the song's next-to-last stanza, with Ursula shouting:
Go ahead -- make your choice!
I'm a very busy woman, and I haven't got all day.
It won't cost much, just your voice!
He does it again. Stop. Rewind. Play. And one more time. On the fourth pass, Cornelia whispers, "It's not 'juice.' " I barely hear her. "What?" "It's not 'juice.' It's 'just' ... 'just your voice'!"
I grab Owen by the shoulders. "Just your voice! Is that what you're saying?!"
He looks right at me, our first real eye contact in a year. "Juicervose! Juicervose! Juicervose!"
Walt starts to shout, "Owen's talking again!" A mermaid lost her voice in a moment of transformation. So did this silent boy. "Juicervose! Juicervose! Juicervose!" Owen keeps saying it, watching us shout and cheer. And then we're up, all of us, bouncing on the bed. Owen, too, singing it over and over -- "Juicervose!" -- as Cornelia, tears beginning to fall, whispers softly, "Thank God, he's in there."
This is the best thing I've read in a month, so so heartbreaking and amazing. Just pre-ordered the book...can't wait to read the full version.
So, there's the famous 1984 Super Bowl commercial for the Macintosh. There was the Think Different campaign. And the Mac vs. PC ads. But I think Apple's newest effort, Misunderstood, is perhaps their best ad ever:
Or maybe I'm the biggest sap in the world...either way, I'm totally crying at work.
ps. But of course, that can't be the best Apple advertisement ever because that title will always and forever be taken by a drunk Jeff Goldblum extolling the virtues of the iMac's internet capabilities:
Great, now I'm crying from laughing at work.
Just warning you, this piece by Ariel Levy will wreck you, put you back together, and wreck you again. Damn powerful beautiful writing.
My doctor told me that it was fine to fly up until the third trimester, so when I was five months pregnant I decided to take one last big trip. It would be at least a year, maybe two, before I'd be able to leave home for weeks on end and feel the elation of a new place revealing itself. (It's like having a new lover-even the parts you aren't crazy about have the crackling fascination of the unfamiliar.) Just before Thanksgiving, I went to Mongolia.
People were alarmed when I told them where I was going, but I was pleased with myself. I liked the idea of being the kind of woman who'd go to the Gobi Desert pregnant, just as, at twenty-two, I'd liked the idea of being the kind of girl who'd go to India by herself. And I liked the idea of telling my kid, "When you were inside me, we went to see the edge of the earth." I wasn't truly scared of anything but the Mongolian winter. The tourist season winds down in October, and by late November, when I got on the plane, the nights drop to twenty degrees below zero. But I was prepared: I'd bought snow pants big enough to fit around my convex gut and long underwear two sizes larger than I usually wear.

File this one under crying at work: a man finds a newborn on a subway platform and he and his partner adopt him and then blub blub blub, I'm sorry I have to go there's something in both my eyes and my nose.
Three months later, Danny appeared in family court to give an account of finding the baby. Suddenly, the judge asked, "Would you be interested in adopting this baby?" The question stunned everyone in the courtroom, everyone except for Danny, who answered, simply, "Yes."
"But I know it's not that easy," he said.
"Well, it can be," assured the judge before barking off orders to commence with making him and, by extension, me, parents-to-be.

This photo was taken recently by Sergey Ponomarev in Miyagi Prefecture in northeastern Japan:
The line on the wall is the high water mark from the March 11 tsunami and the time on the clock is when the water crested (Wikipedia puts the max readings right around 15:20 local time). Each element alone is documentation of a thing...together they tell a story.
I have a soft spot for storytelling clocks in photos. Joseph Koudelka's 1968 photo of the empty streets of Prague before the Soviet crackdown of The Prague Spring is one of my favorite photos. And obviously I love the photo taken by my wife of me holding my son Ollie when he was exactly 20 mintues old. It was the first time I'd held him and oh crap I'm crying at work again...

In 1981, Ray Towler was convicted of rape, kidnapping, and felonious assault of two young children and sentenced to life in prison. Twenty-nine years later, in 2010, DNA evidence proves he didn't commit the crime and Towler is released from prison.
So many choices. Which car insurance. Which cereal. Which deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, shampoo. Rows and rows of products. Varieties, sizes, colors. Which is cheaper? Which is better? What's the best buy? Which gum to chew? When he went into prison there were, like, two kinds of chewing gum. Now there are a zillion. One of the small gifts he gives himself is trying all the gums. "I can spoil myself a little so long as I stay within my means," he says. Papaya juice! Kiwi and strawberry nectar! Green tea! Arnold Palmer -- he was a golfer when Towler went down. Now he is a drink, sweet and so incredibly thirst quenching.
He loves work. He got out May 5 and started working June 21. Hell, I've been vacationing for thirty years. He wears a smock and pushes a mail cart. He stops at all the cubicles, greets everyone with his friendly smile. Ray even loves commuting to work, especially now, in his new car, a black Ford Focus. He's like a sixteen-year-old who can finally drive himself to school. It costs almost the same to park as it does to take the train.
File this one under "crying at work".
Kamikaze pilot Masanobu Kuno wrote a farewell letter to his young son and daughter the day before he flew to his death in the Battle of Okinawa. From the translation:
Your father will become a god and watch you two closely. Both of you, study hard and help out your mother with work. I can't be your horse to ride, but you two be good friends.
I should have a "crying at work" tag for posts like this.

Gazumped by Southampton again.
Firstly, Gaston Ramirez had agreed personal terms then LFC pulled out of the deal because of the agents monster fee, he has been injured most of the season so doesnt look too much of a problem.
Gylfi Sigurdson has flopped so far at Spurs as largely has Clint Dempsey, who by the way, by not becoming a LFC player has unearthed Raheem Sterling by not occupying his position.
You haven't seen Forren play, nor even heard of him before so what is the point of your post? He is a solid defender but lacking in pace, the only plan for signing him is because Coates is desperate to go out on loan to get some football and we need cover. Personally, I vastly prefer Coates to Forren anyway so if Southampton want to keep paying over the odds for players then good luck to them and their bank account.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I don't doubt any of that but it does have the sound of the jilted girlfriend about it. Is it better to think that players LFC go after but choose to go to other clubs are really no good after all?

Ha ha, I think you may have a point but I can barely see it with these glasses being so red.
Gaston Ramirez and Sigurdson both had me a bit fuming, I rated both those players and we never addressed the no.10 role during the summer even when temporarily trying to patch it up with Dempsey late on, it was clearly something we were planning to do. Ramirez went Southampton for the money whilst Siggy went Spurs for the same, that is absolutely fine by them if it is what they want to do. This guy though, he is being bought as cover in the 1st place so to miss out on him is no biggy for me, I am sure he will be happier playing 1st team football then not playing at all. He probably found it a bit insulting being offered a trial, who does that anymore except for kids and relics?

Your right it is a bit presumption to assume any player who does not want to play for LFC is no good. However a player who would prefer to go to a relegation battler rather than us, I do think its question mark whether they would be good for us, at least good enough to actually have a positive impact on the team.

Friends and relatives of an Ajax, Ont., man who died after being shot by police last month say they want justice for his death.
They're planning a vigil Saturday night to honour Michael MacIsaac and draw attention to the issue of police shootings.
The 47-year-old was shot by Durham Regional Police on the morning of Dec. 2, 2013 and died from his injuries the next day.
Ontario's police watchdog, which is probing the death, says officers were called to the scene after hearing a man was "acting in a strange manner.''
The Special Investigations Unit says there was an "interaction'' between police and the man, prompting an officer to open fire.
MacIsaac's family says he suffered from epilepsy as a result of a childhood head injury - a condition that caused him to leave his home in a delirious state that day.
They describe him as "a loving husband, a protective brother, a devoted son, a fun uncle and a loyal friend.''
"This should never have happened. My brother should be alive today, with us, not needlessly buried,'' his sister, Joanne MacIsaac, said in a statement.
"Police need to stop shooting first, and asking questions later. We don't know the exact details of what happened that morning but one thing is clear, Michael needed support not bullets.''
The group is calling for the SIU to lay criminal charges against the officer who shot MacIsaac.
It also wants all Ontario police officers to receive training in conflict de-escalation techniques, and be required to use the techniques before resorting to fatal force. And mobile crisis units should be established for every police force in the province, it says.
The vigil for MacIsaac is scheduled for 6 p.m. at 201 Williamson Drive West in Ajax, east of Toronto

Manchester United Message Board
FA Cup v Tottenham
Here's the injury list for tomorrow -
Rio Ferdinand
Patrice Evra
Jonny Evans
Park Ji Sung
Wayne Rooney
Not a nice looking list but at least Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs are fit after their knocks the other night. The injuries make the game a little tougher, but while the defence is depleted, we still have a strong attacking line up. Judging from Fergies comments, it does seem it will be Fletcher utilised as a defender for this one, but Eckersley and Fabio may also be in contention. Spurs have been struggling again lately, and came so close to being humiliated the other might by Burnley, and are going to be tired from that. Its going to be a close fought game, but one I think we will still win despite the injuries.

Your team prediction may not be far away steve although knowing SAF he will most likely spring a surprise or two with maybe Fabio and Tosic getting a run out.
I thought I read that Nani is out for a week as well with a groin problem - report is will miss 2 games.

Giggs, Berba, Neville really being saved for the West Brom game as I think we need to be more full strength for that. League is priorty 1.
Current time scales given by SAF:
nani, rio , brown back in 1 wk
rooney 2 wks
anderson, rafael, evra, evans, park and anyone else except Hargreaves 3 wks

Youngsters drafted in to squad Chester & Eckersley PLUS Fabio

I think we'll play a relatively strong team, although we have WBA 3 days later, our squad is perfectly placed to deal with even this awful period of injuries.
You certainly wont see United fans moaning like those whinging gooners, if you listen to them they have had injury problems for about 3 years now which have cost them the title! Ha!
This is a great chance to bring Fabio in at LB, alongside Vidic, sheasy and Nev. Come on Fergie!

Have you seen Arsene Whinger's comments about our so called fixture advantage yet Chris?
I can see Tosic starting with Giggs on the bench if things need boosting later. Ditto Gibson/Possebon for Scholes/Carrick. I cant see Fabio starting though, but it would be nice to be in a position to be able to bring him on at some point, apart from another injury.
Eric Cantona Eric Cantona Jan 23, 2009 20:55 Flag
That's a very strong team - almost the best 11 - and given our injuries and the match on Tuesday at WBA, I don't think that will be the line-up.
I bet Foster or K plays and Possebon/Gibson instead of Giggs.

You may have a point about the goalkeeper. If he doesn't play Van Der Sar, I think it would be Kuszczak. I see what people are saying about Giggs, but I still think he will start. I don't think Fergie will want him on the pitch for the whole game, so I could see him playing about an hour, then possibly Tosic coming on to make his debut. With Fergie originally stating that Tosic needed until the end of Feb to prepare for the physical demands of the premiership, although he has impressed in training, i'd expect to see him make a couple of sub appearances before he's ready to start a game.
If Possebon or Gibson were to play, I would prefer it to be Rodrigo. We haven't seen enough of him this season for my liking.
Just about to post on this. Think you are probably pretty close with your team though, with Harrys comments about his weakest team in mind, I would like to see Fabio start and see Tosic and possibly Macheda play some role as well.
The squad contains quite a bit of youth so think if Tottenham do play a very weak team we should use it to get some youngsters some time on the pitch.

I would love to see Fabio and Tosic both start, I just don't think they will. They may very well make a substitutes appearance depending on how the game is panning out.

James stared at the the path before him the entire way while Aria was talking to Makoto. He literally said and thought of nothing as he walked, simply slogging out the hike as he was used to doing on journeys. Lisbon of course, decided that was the best time to start talking about combat tactics and strategies for future fights. He often did this, but James didn't understand why. Every fight he'd been in, James had beaten the enemy up, down, left and right. Aria was the only one who had gotten the drop on him so far. And that was because of his own foolishness. It wasn't until Aria came up beside him and elbowed him that he started a little, coming back to reality.
"Huh? What is it Aria?" James asked, his eyes a little wide. Were they under attack?! No... She was just goofing around. Huh. James smiled at Aria's antics with a jovial smile. Makoto was freaking out, which made him laugh out loud. These two really weren't so bad. They were the best entertainment he'd ever had, which was a rather sad realization for him. He hadn't been so happy since he left his Mother.
When they reached the house, James stopped outside quietly, allowing Aria some time alone... But not without letting her know that she could take her time. He looked around,wandering over to a fence. "This place is even worse than the cities... Cleaner... But damned if it hasn't been consumed by the plants..." James wondered if maybe this place was to Aria what his old home was to him... Maybe he should check on her... She probably didn't need him there, but even so. He felt he should make sure... Just in case. James moved to the house's entrance and went inside, coming upon a red-cheeked Aria. Had she been crying? Alarm bells went off inside James' head. Oh crap. Had he intruded on something /really/ personal? Feeling he was obliged to offer an apology, James swallowed his pride fully and spoke with a soft smile to her. "Hey Aria... Everything okay?" He moved to her, putting a hand on her shoulder. He felt utterly exposed, showing his genuine concern for this girl. "Uhm... Hey... So I know you're good friends with that girl Spark... But if you wanna talk, I can listen. Anytime."

My winninng bid of $350 ($507! to my door!) for 35 Xpanding water hoses. I received 25 boxes with product, 12 boxes empty (empty of product) boxes. Filed complaint to company asking for refund on 12 of the 35 items and they refuse to respond. I entered into this purchase with intent of buying a lot more products and this first transaction experience probably saved me thousands in the long run. Do not do any business with Liquidators.com... they will rip you off with full intent to do so. They are making a business out of being a crook.

I'm looking for a plugin to share WordPress and phpBB users. This one comes close, but it changes the WordPress login sequence in ways I didn't expect.
When I visit /wp-admin, the plugin redirects to the phpBB login page. After I log in there, it redirects back to the WordPress front page; not the dashboard. If I manually visit /wp-admin again, I'm now logged in on the dashboard. After I log out of WordPress, I get redirected to the phpBB login page again instead of the WordPress front page.
Is this the way it's meant to work? I'd prefer the plugin to just use the login information from the phpbb_users table for WordPress authentication, without all the redirection business.

Clams are inexpensive, plentiful, easy to cook, and delicious. And you barely need a recipe—once they open, they're done.

Tasty and easy. We loved it.
The easiest steamed clams I've ever made and just as good as the more complicated recipes. I used Shock Top Lemon Shandy beer and did not need to add more lemon juice. So basically, beer clams. That's it!

> Harder Erections!
I think because I masterbated, I don't need my husband as much and it effects our marriage. So I don't do it anymore, and now I'm sitting here just waiting for him to come home!
Healthy sexual activity Reply by: Dr. Brown
Biologically speaking, masturbation is as right and normal as sneezing, coughing, laughing, and yawning. Masturbation is definitely a healthy sexual activity. It is one way for you to enjoy your own body, and to give yourself sexual pleasure. It can also tune you in to your own sexual likes and dislikes. You then have the choice of sharing that information with a sexual partner to enhance a sexual relationship

Hi holstebm,
That error can only emerge if the [site]/wp-content/advanced-cache.php file is not writable or it gets deleted after pushing the save settings button.
Please try to make an empty file by hand and try re-saving the settings.
I now see the directory statically set. I have moved my content and plugins directory so if this relies on wp-content, it wouldn't work.
This wasn't a limitation in the previous version. Not sure what the best fix would be for this. Is there any chance that this will be changed in the future?
Hi holstebm,
The plugin is not yet ready to support other dir than wp-content, but thank you very much for sharing this.
The problem existed in the previous versions, unfortunately the error message what was missing :(
I'm currently working on a really big refactoring on the code, I'll add the functionality to be able to handle different content directories was well.
Version 1.0 alpha is in the repository, branches/v1.0, contains fix for this as well, but I'm way before testing these cases.
Anyway, problem clearified, will be fixed.

The first problem that we had with them was that if you are 1 day late on a payment they make numerous calls and are rude.
Second, our car a 2006 Dodge Magnum, had a messed up front drivers side door hinge, it made loud creeking sounds everytime you opened or closed it, this was within the first month of owning the car. We took the car in, the mechanic looked at it and said that he could fix it but he would have to order it and we would have to bring it back. After several phone calls and at least two weeks later the part was finally in, so we made arraingments and dropped the car off the next morning, it was guarenteed to be fixed by the time that we got out of work that afternoon. Upon going to pick the car up, we were told that "No the mechanic couldn't make the repair, that had to be done at the body shop". So we drove around the building to the body shop and the body guy said that he could do it, but we would have to bring it back because he was closing for the day. So we brought it back the next day and waited for the repair to be done. It took at least two hours, while we sat and listened to the guys in the shop talk like guys in a shop do. Once it was fixed and we looked at it, the hinge was black instead of silver like the other one and the body of the car. We agreed to leave it as was because we were disgusted by the amount of time and trips that we already had invested.
Third, we took a trip to Florida just under a year after buying the car. On the way back, when the weather got cold, no matter what setting that we had the heat/defrost on the windows were frosting up. So we called them and told the mechanic what was going on, he made an appointment for us to bring the car in. We took it in and he looked at it, he told us that the problem could be fixed, but it would have to be sent to Flint. We checked on the car every couple of days and the mechanic kept telling us that it was not back from Flint yet. This went on for 3 weeks until they called to tell us that we were late with a payment. That is when we were informed that the car was still sitting there and that it never had went to Flint. We went and picked the car up and took it to a "REAL" Dodge dealership and for $98 they did a total diagnostic and an oil change. Diagnoses: Nothing wrong with the car, design flaw.
Last, and most recent, the son's car. He owes about $1700 on the car, it is currently in the shop, a different one, to get a rebuilt transmission, this is after putting $500 into it last week. So the pay off is $1700 and he will have put upwards of $2000 into in the last two weeks.
There are other examples that I could give, but I think that you get the idea. Think long and hard before doing business with this company!!!

The author's conception is that there is no warfare between science and religion, but that religion has been undergoing a series of defeats during the development of modern science, and modifying its conceptions accordingly. Thus the growth of knowledge will lead eventually to a religious view which will be able to bear the brunt of scientific investigation.

My Name Translation Tattoo Experience
"I decided about three years ago that I wanted to have tattoo. A friend of mine had had a small dragon tattooed on her lower back and I loved it probably more than my friend. The only thing I was terrified of was going through the pain. When I was much younger a friend of mine, (for someone reason we used to call him 'Foxey'!) took me with him as support when he went to have a large tattoo done across his shoulder blades. He had been wanting a tattoo for years and his parents wouldn't let him get one until his 18th birthday so he was blissfully happy the whole way there and didn't have the slightest care that it might hurt. Anyway, the whole experience completely terrified me and it culminated in him passing out half way through. Needless to say, I was not in a hurry to get my own tattoo done and even 15 years later he still hasn't lived down the fact that he passed out getting his tattoo done.
The actual process was fine. I'd been a bit worried – needlessly about dirty or used needles but everything seemed really hygienic and well cleaned. Best of all, it didn't really hurt at all. It was a bit uncomfortable but it was more like a kind of 'hot' feeling rather than pain itself.
I am now very happy that I had my tattoo done. It's in Hindi and written on my lower back but I have to wait until Summer before I can show it off properly. I can't wait!!!

Today another call from a friendly woman asking for my business partner again. Same drill, although she did not represetn herself as the IRS. She told me it was a state payroll issue that had to be handled immediately. The address they had for us is 2 years old, which starting setting alarms for me. I told her I'd have him call her back, and got her number.
I called our payroll company who said there had been a filing issue six months ago - I remembered then that they had emailed me about that. They explained it's been taken care of and is a closed matter. They offered to have this person call them to confirm - expecting that they wold not want to ever do that.
Now comes the fun part. First I searched the internet.. and found a few negative reports here. I called her back, told her the payroll company had dealt with the matter several months ago and had offered to let her call. At this point the woman went ballistic, yelling at me about how she didn't want to talk to anyone but just to help me, that they get their data every day and it's not settled and I better have them help or the IRS would take action against us. When I tried to break in to tell her about having found negative report son the web and would handle it, she wouldn't stop talking, told me I was foolish if I didn't have them help us today, and that I better keep their number. I tried to say good bye, but she wouldn't stop yelling.. so I hung up on her. Then she called *me* back to tell me how rude I was to hang up on someone who wants to help me... wow.
Anyway, I'm glad they didn't call asking for me originally.. I might have provided some info - though I'd never provide things liek tax id, bank accoutn etc to a random caller.

Musically, *Porter's Pot *is a collage of songs demonstrating the currentculture of music mixed with Denzil's musical potential. The main goal for the mixtape is to show people that a host or a cosign is not needed if the music can speak for itself; hence, *Porter's Pot* not being hosted by DJ Drama. Though *Porter's Pot* is considered a mixtape, it is easy to get lost in its production and receive it as a full album.

At least you got a loaner. Years on, I am still stuck with a severely damaged GE dryer that wobbles on the floor and a promise note from Home Depot's Fly-By-Night appliance delivery company for a $150 reimbursement which of course was a lie.

internet connectivity is quite bad in africa especially during the current rainy season. Forced/unintentional disconnections and/game abandonments are quite common. i see you are penalising this on the player. do you consider the reasons/cause for game abandonment?worse still, you now get a challenge from someone who then abandons the game before it starts and then you must wait for 5 minutes between abandoned games!
Intentional and unintentional disconnectors are treated the same. To bypass the five minute wait you need friends. This group of penalized players are likely to accept friend requests. http://www.chess.com/groups/home/fair-play-transgressor-rehabilitation-centre
The bigger the group gets the more likely it will be to find people to play.
I travel a lot, and love to play chess on the road. However, hotel internet connections are often weak. I take responsibility for completing my moves in the allotted time, and I don't mind losing on time if I cannot reconnect. But it is unfair for chess.com to consider my game abandoned when I am scrambling to reconnect on a weak signal.
if chikara has been banned why did i get selected to play against him???
He has done his usual and disconected 3 moves into the game (after giving him a hammering in the first game)
This player abandoned the game from a losing position with 3 minutes on his clock. By the look of the comments this seems to be habit. Pity cos I was short on on time and he probably could have beat me on time. He had not been disconnected, just abandoned.
I am a Namibian citizen, currently living and working in South Africa. Chikara, I have full sympathy. The internet connection in southern africa is as stable as the South African cricket team in world cups. When I played on uchess.com, I had so many disconnects that I decided not to play anymore. Our signal has the ability to go from HSDPA to HSUPA to EDGE to 3G to GPRS in a matter of seconds, sometimes staying on EDGE for hours. This offcourse in Rustenburg, South Africa. So for an African to undergo disconnects on any website will happen. ADSL is very expensive, AND is not available everywhere. To assist with your issue, please don't abandon games, and if you are disconnected, message the person afterwards to tell them atleast that you apologize for disconnecting and that it is out of your control. Maybe that will help. All the best!!!
And might I add, that not one of our 3G technologies are very stable, because even IF we have EDGE signal, it happens quite often that NO data is uploaded or downloaded. As if its stuck. So yeah, Africa is far behind in terms of telecommunication stability.
are you sure you should be playing chess online even when you disconnect frequently?
Good point. I do try to play correspondance chess rather than live chess. Will only play live chess when I am at a location where there is a physical telcom line. I have to say that the live chess at chess.com does not disconnect as easiliy as uchess.com did.

Another stock that insiders are active in here is Synta Pharmaceuticals (SNTA), which is engaged in discovering, developing and commercializing small molecule drugs to extend and enhance the lives of patients with severe medical conditions like cancer and chronic inflammatory diseases.
Synta Pharmaceuticals has a market cap of $348 million and an enterprise value of $277 million. This is a cash-rich company, since the total cash position on its balance sheet is $90.39 million and its total debt is $23.64 million. After you back out the debt, this company has $66.75 million of total cash on its balance sheet.
A director just bought 150,000 shares, or about $706,000 worth of stock, at $4.71 per share. That same director also just bought 500,000 shares, or about $2.26 million worth of stock, at $4.35 to $4.65 per share.
From a technical perspective, SNTA is currently trending well below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock has been downtrending badly for the last three months, with shares plunging from its high of $10.74 to its recent low of $3.77 a share. During that move, shares of SNTA have been consistently making lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, shares of SNTA have now started to rebound sharply off that $3.77 low and are quickly moving within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade.
If you're bullish on SNTA, then look for long-biased trades as long as this stock is trending above $4.50, and then once it breaks out above some near-term overhead resistance at $5.15 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above that level with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1.53 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then SNTA will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $6 to its 50-day moving average at $6.65 a share.
Whenever Jim Cramer posts a 'BUY' on a stock, he most likely has bought the stock way ahead and now is shorting it, or wants to sell with a profit. The stock is almost guaranteed to do the opposite of his recommendation!
Cramer is bullish now?? Wow, it must be a great time to buy then, right?? i mean come on its Cramer. LMAO
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Correct! Now is the time to short.

I was so disapointed. It was so cheap feeling and awkward to try and figure out how to put on. Just ugh!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? It was just odd, like faded black and cream
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Horrible, it was bascially the material of a cheap pashmina
- How accurate was the sizing? The website never gave sizing so I guessed it was one size fits all. But when you are only 5'2 and 105 pounds one size fits all does not fit!
To say the least, I was dissapointed. For one, there are no instructions included, in how to wear this particular item. It is worn only one particular way. I had to look up instructions on the internet. What was supposed to be black and cream turned out to be brown and a dirty yellow color. The fabric looked like it would be a warm sweater like fabric, but in fact it is so thin, I can see through it. A very cheap feeling product. It looked so beautiful in the picture. So basically everything about the item was a dissapointment. Size, color and fabric. Now I have to spend $$ to return.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? not even close
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. poor, fabric is a very thin,silky type of knit. It looked thicker,sweater like, in the picture
- How accurate was the sizing? Very small. Once I got one arm in, I couldnt get the wrap around my back to my second arm.

The Wales captain has enjoyed another fine campaign at the heart of the Swans' defence, overcoming a difficult start to the season to play an integral part in their Capital One Cup success and ninth-place Premier League finish.
Although the season may have finished in unsatisfactory fashion with the 3-0 home defeat at the hands of Fulham on Sunday, Williams is likely to find himself at the centre of transfer speculation during the summer.
But for now, the 28-year-old considers his future to be with Swansea, although he admits he does not know what will happen should a bid come in for him.
When asked if he would be with the club at the start of next season, Williams said: "As far as I know. I don't know anything about it, I just read it in the papers like everyone else.
"I play my football for Swansea City and now I'm just going away and looking forward to a holiday.
"I've said before, I'll take it as a compliment, it means you're doing your job well. I've done that this time, I haven't looked too far into it.
"The season's been such that since the cup final we've had so much work to do that I haven't really thought about it."
