BlackBerries, 'RedBerry' and the Dallas City Council's digital divide
The nation having elected as president BlackBerry addict and geek-in-chief Barack Obama over computer illiterate John McCain, it's worth noting that the Dallas City Council, while more politically unified than ever this decade, is flat-out digitally divided.
With about 77 percent of all U.S. households reportedly owning a computer, it seems almost assumed that elected politicians, especially those in the nation's 9th largest city, would attempt to connect with their constituents using the Internet.
Assume nothing.
All sitting council members have bare-bones Web pages at Dallascityhall.com, generally featuring office phone numbers, an e-mail address, a listing of committee assignments — and that's about it.
Only seven — less than half — have established Web pages outside their rudimentary City Hall sites.
So let's explore which council members provide their increasingly tech-savvy constituents with a bevy of online bonus material — policy positions, e-newsletters, blogs, etc. — and which ones are still trying to figure out the difference between a Mac and a PC, or worse, where the power button is located on either.
We'll also grade council member Web sites based on their style, substance, ease of use and sophistication:
Mayor Tom Leppert: Himself an avid BlackBerry user, this former chief executive of construction company Turner Corp. knows his way around a keypad. His Web site is straightforward, clean and contains various press releases, articles and links to news stories. Also includes biographical and contact information, photo galleries, mailing list sign-up and online campaign contribution form that accepts credit cards and PayPal. The juxtaposition of two Leppert photographs, one obviously more recent than the other, looks awkward. Grade: A-
Mayor Pro Tem Elba Garcia: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Grade: F
Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Dwaine Caraway: Informative Web site featuring Caraway's "20-point plan" for "rebuilding District 4 a block at a time." Plenty of biographical information, as well as links to voting resources and volunteer opportunities. Scans of community newsletters and district-related videos are nice touches. Also includes contact information. A few sections — particularly a media section — are a tad out-of-date. Online contribution section doesn't allow credit card transactions. Grade: B
District 2 council member Pauline Medrano: Unrefined site that includes Medrano's resume, endorsements, press photos and some voting and contact information. No online campaign contribution function. Calendar of events section reads "currently being scheduled. Stay tuned." Curiously features messages about ordering a recycling cart and dialing 911 in the most prominent positions of her homepage. Grade: C-
District 3 council member Dave Neumann: As visually attractive a Web site as it is informative. Up-to-date district calendar, reams of district-specific information and online campaign contribution function. Contact information is easily found, photos abound and a sign-up form for e-mail updates is linked from the homepage. Designed by Dallas-based Web communication firm Elettore. Grade: A-
District 5 council member Vonciel Jones Hill: There's a Voncieljoneshill.com Web site — there's just nothing on it. Grade: F
District 6 council member Steve Salazar: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Grade: F
District 7 council member Carolyn Davis: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Grade: F
District 8 council member Tennell Atkins: His Web site simply displays his photograph with the slogan "A New Leader, Elect Tennell Atkins," and states, "WEBSITE COMING SOON." Grade: D-
District 9 council member Sheffie Kadane: A fine site designed by the same company responsible for that of Neumann. A bounty of district-specific news and information, large photo gallery and easily-accessible e-mail update form greet visitors. Biographical information and endorsement list also provided. Calendar, news links and monthly newsletters haven't been regularly updated. No online campaign contribution function. Grade: B+
District 10 council member Jerry Allen: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Grade: F
District 11 council member Linda Koop: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Grade: F
District 12 council member Ron Natinsky: What his site lacks in flash it makes up for in content. Clearly details Natinsky's political objectives, resume and campaign endorsees. The site is filled, too, with district-specific news that's often ultra-localized. Plenty of links and other information, as well. The knocks? No online campaign donation function. A design that would have seemed cutting-edge maybe a decade ago. And with more than a few references to city affairs from 2005 and 2006, the site feels a bit dated. Grade: B-
District 13 council member Mitchell Rasansky: No Web presence beyond basic City Hall site. Does not use e-mail, but proudly touts his "RedBerry" — a red, pocket-sized address book in which he keeps important dates and contacts. Grade: F
District 14 council member Angela Hunt: One of the council's most outspoken members, Hunt is also the body's Web standard bearer. In addition to copious district news and information, her Web site is updated almost daily through her blog and constant "tweeting" via Web site Twitter. (From Washington, D.C., Tuesday: "Angela is freezing on parade bleachers, second row back 100 yds from white house.") Hunt's been known to blog in the midst of City Council meetings, offering constituents instant access to her thoughts on a given issue. The site also includes videos, photos and an online campaign contribution function. Grade: A
Now tell us: Which council member Web sites do you consider the best? Any features you'd like to see that council members aren't today employing?

During these short, gray days, when trees have gone skeletal and stepping outside means getting chapped lips and numb toes and, as a consequence, grouchy, the city should sparkle.
Brightening the commercial district is not only a public service for the seasonal-affective-disordered populace, it helps put shoppers in the mood to spend.
New York and Chicago and Miami are fabulously flashy right now. While they are taking the December stage like the Sugar Plum Fairy, Philadelphia, in comparison, is looking a mite Oliver Twist. As in: "Please, sir, may I have some more?"

Johnny Can Play This One Off the Break
The racetrack cliché is the place you lose it is the place you win it back. With a slight deviation on that theme, we're taking Researcher to win today's G3 Queens Country Handicap because the place you win it is also the place you can repeat the accomplishment.
Set for his best in his third start following a layoff, not only did he win this race last year but is a multiple winner on wet tracks, should that be the case, obviously has won on today's surface and is clearly and consistently the fast horse on performance figures.
Researcher like to set or attend the pace at close range under these conditions and with an inside post plus the presence of Johnny Velazquez, he will be in ideal position to trip out here using either tack. And although he is the early line favorite, there are others in here sure to attract support.
Taking Researcher to win at 2-1 or greater, and keying him first and second in the exotics with surface lover Naughty New Yorker (15-1) and the very live Rodman (4-1).
Running Totals: (559) 175-111-78 Total Dollar Return: $1,210.30 [win selections only]

DROID X2 using WiiHacks
Hello guys!
I've tried today to change the bluetooth module of my Wii console. (I had a black screen issue, but I could succesfully run the Priiloader. Some guys recommended me to do this.) At the final step, when I had to remove the old bluetooth module I accidentally flexed that "thingy". Could this be the reason why my Wii is still not working(exactly same problem)?
Pic with the thingy:
bump! any ideas?
Can u turn the Wii on with the wiimote?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using WiiHacks
Then it is most likely still an issue with the module or connecting part
Sent from my GT-I9100 using WiiHacks
plz check both the blu-tooth module and the wifi module.
1. black screen and can't turn on Wii with the wiimote, it's blu-tooth module defect.
2. black screen and verified no video signal on TV, it's wifi module defect.
3. black screen and verified with video siganl on TV, it's blu-tooth module defect.
4. black screen but can get into Rescue Mode (RM, showing Wii version on lower corner of ur TV) with a GC control, it's blu-tooth module defect.
test aboves with DVD-Rom connected to Wii motherboard.
when the blu-tooth module was properly fit in, a "click" sound could be heard. did u?

Santander Wins EU Court Challenge to French Tax on Funds
Banco Santander SA and other financial services companies including Societe Generale SA won a court bid to overturn a French levy on some mutual funds in a ruling that may lead to rebates for investors.
The European Union's Court of Justice ruled that France was wrong to charge a 25 percent withholding tax on dividend payments to a type of EU-regulated funds, known as UCITS, outside France. French-based products aren't required to pay the tax.
The measure "constitutes a restriction on the free movement of capital, which is in principle prohibited under EU law," the court said in a statement today.
France has already received claims for tax refunds of more than 4 billion euros ($5.2 billion) and could face more, said Kit Dickson, a tax partner at Deloitte & Touche LLP, in a telephone interview. EU countries have reacted to similar claims by changing rules that tax foreign-based funds differently.
"We'll see tax policy changes coming in from different member states and they'll either be starting to tax resident funds as well as non-resident funds or they'll choose to exempt them," Dickson said. "Spain changed some of its withholding tax rules in 2010, the Netherlands changed them in 2008, France chose to tax resident pension funds from 2009."
The French Finance Ministry press office didn't immediately respond to calls and e-mails requesting comment on the decision and the potential tax rebate.
Economic Repercussions
The EU court refused a request from the French government to put a time limit on when claims could be made. It said France hadn't put forward any evidence that it would risk serious economic repercussions.
The German fund management association, or BVI, which encouraged members to complain, estimated potential French tax rebates for German funds at as much as 1 billion euros. It is monitoring similar cases in the Netherlands, Spain and Italy.
"Any possible refunds go to the funds so the investors get the benefit," the association said in an e-mailed statement. "The ruling may make French investments more attractive because funds based in Germany or elsewhere will no longer suffer a disadvantage compared to French funds."
Ten funds operated by Santander, Societe Generale, Allianz Global Investors Kapitalanlagegesellschaft mbH, KBC Groep NV, Generali and Dimensional Fund Advisors LP challenged the French tax, arguing that EU rules forbid different treatment in France and elsewhere in Europe for UCITS, or Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities.
French Litigation
Santander and Dimensional didn't immediately respond to e-mails seeking comment. Societe Generale and KBC declined to comment and Generali declined to immediately comment. Allianz referred requests for comment to the BVI.
The ruling sets principles that may help litigation over French tax discrimination for other products such as life insurance where French-based companies escape taxes that are levied on foreign rivals, said Eglantine Lioret, a tax lawyer based in Paris.
The judgment doesn't limit discrimination to funds within Europe which may aid refund claims from funds from elswhere, Dickson said.
"If you're a fund based in the U.S. or Canada or Japan, then potentially you could take advantage of this as well," Dickson said.
While the ruling from the EU's highest court is binding, final decisions on the case must be taken by an administrative court in Montreuil, France.
The cases are: C-338/11 FIM Santander Top 25 Euro Fi, Direction des residents a l'etranger et des services generaux, C-339/11 Cartera Mobiliara, C-340/11 Alltri Inka, C-341/11 DBI-Fonds APT no 737, C-342/11 SICAV KBC Select Immo, C-343/11 SGSS Deutschland Kapitalanlagegesellschaft, C-344/11 International Values Series of the DFA Investment Trust, C-345/11 Continental Small Series of the DFA Investment Trust, C-346/11 Sicav GA Fund B, C-347/11 AMB Generali Aktien Euroland.

One of the fruits of that union has been the Raritan River Music Festival.
Newman and Oltman founded the festival in 1989. A stimulating mix of new music, world music and straightforward classical repertoire, the festival presents performances by professional musicians in intimate venues scattered across one of the most beautiful regions of New Jersey. Concerts this year, thus far, have taken place in Stockton, Stanton and Stewartsville.
"When we started the festival," Newman says, "we wanted something that would embrace a wider geographic area. Also, we wanted to take advantage of the smaller historic venues that really give this region its flavor. Most of the venues are in villages and out in the countryside close to the Raritan Valley."
The concluding concert of this year's festival will be presented tomorrow night at Clinton Presbyterian Church.
The couple have strong ties to the area, making their home in lower Warren County along the Delaware River. They are former artists-in-residence at Lafayette College in Easton, Pa., where Oltman is on the faculty. Oltman also teaches at Princeton University, and Newman at Mannes College of Music in New York.
Newman and Oltman are co-founders of the New York Guitar Seminar at Mannes.
The duo has developed a unique repertoire over the years, with commissions by major and up-and-coming composers, including Pulitzer Prize-winner Paul Moravec, Lowell Liebermann and Roberto Sierra.
The couple will be joined on tomorrow night's program by the Daedalus Quartet.
"We first worked with the Daedalus Quartet a decade ago," Newman says, "on a new piece that was written for us, 'Sevdalinka,' by Dusan Bogdanovic. We were impressed by how beautifully they performed and how well we played with them."
The heart of the program will be a new work by "tango titan" Daniel Binelli. Binelli, a protégé of Astor Piazzolla, is expected to be on hand.
Newman and Oltman have been ardent champions and collaborators of Binelli, who has frequently appeared with the duo on his own instrument, the bandoneon, the Argentinean concertina which lends authentic tango so much of its distinctive sound.
However, there is no bandoneon in evidence in the new piece, which will bring together Newman, Oltman and Daedalus in a grand finale for guitar duo and string quartet.
The work, titled "Sexteto Buenos Aires," will be given its world premiere — not that Newman and Oltman are unfamiliar with the piece. The couple previously played it in its orchestral guise, as the "Concierto Buenos Aires."
Newman is enthusiastic about the new version. "What you lose in the lushness of a large string orchestra you gain in the intimacy of hearing it with a smaller ensemble in a venue that seats only 300."
When the duo performed the concerto version in Virginia, it was in an auditorium that seated 2,500.
This kind of reworking is not without precedent. Aaron Copland did the same kind of thing when he arranged his own Sextet from what had been his "Short Symphony."
Newman finds similarities in the spirit of Binelli's piece to the earlier Bogdanovic commission. "Bogdanovic translates 'Sevdalinka' as basically being 'Balkan blues.'
The Binelli piece — very much like Argentine blues — incorporates the passion, intensity and sense of tragedy of the world of tango, which developed largely in the slums and ports of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Montevideo, Uruguay, at the beginning of the 1900s."
The four-movement piece evokes the various aspects of life in Argentina's famed port capital, with an intermezzo of sorts in the form of an atmospheric sojourn to the countryside.
The composer writes of the original version, "My concept of this piece is to offer audiences the possibility of getting to know and understand Argentine music through its different facets and rhythms.
"I would like the 'Concierto Buenos Aires,' with its evocative rhythms and melodies, to represent Argentina and its music in the same way the Aranjuez concerto (Joaquin Rodrigo's popular guitar work) represents the country of Spain and the sound of the guitar."
Newman and Oltman have known Binelli for 20 years.
The couple will open the concert with a set of "Grand Concert Variations" by Mauro Giuliani, a younger contemporary of Beethoven.
The Daedalus Quartet will also present music of Franz Schubert and Joan Tower, including the New Jersey premiere of Tower's String Quartet No. 5 "White Water.
Video clips of Newman and Oltman, posted on the couple's website (guitarduo.com), attest to the vibrancy of the Raritan River Music Festival, as well as to the depth and variety of their repertoire.
Among them are clips of performances with Binelli in an earlier work, "Metropolis," with the composer on the bandoneon, including an appearance at the 2010 Raritan festival and another at the 2009 New York Guitar Seminar.
The videos range from the expected (Spanish guitar) to the unexpectedly riotous (an impromptu rendition of "Wipeout" in the couple's garage); from the surprisingly absorbing (an interview, featuring a galliard by John Dowland, with the couple performing both parts on a single guitar) to a literal howler (a "trio" with the Knuckles the dog).
Newman and Oltman have commissioned and given the premieres of many works over the years.
A handful of the pieces have been documented on an album — their 12th — "Music from Raritan River" (MSR Classics 1298), including the earlier collaboration with the Daedalus Quartet, Bogdanovic's "Sevdalinka."
Each May for the past 23 years, the Raritan River Music Festival has lured a procession of stimulating performers to Hunterdon and Warren counties.
This year's festival featured sold-out concerts by the flute and harp duet Duo Rhone and the vocal ensemble Meridionalis. The multicultural viola and percussion duet duoJala appeared last weekend, with its distinctive blend of world and classical traditions.
"Romantics New and Old"
Music by Giuliani, Tower, Schubert and Binelli
Newman and Oltman Guitar Duo; the Daedalus String Quartet
When: 7:30 p.m. tomorrow
Where: Clinton Presbyterian Church, 91 Center St., Clinton

Akron signs former Gannon coach Kest to contract extension
The University of Akron has signed women's basketball head coach Jodi Kest to a five-year contract extension.
Kest, a successful coach at Gannon from 1996 to 2002 (105-64, three straight NCAA Division II appearances), guided the Zips to a school-record 23 wins in 2012-13 in her eighth season. She is the longest-tenured coach for the Mid-American Conference program.
Last season, Akron was invited to the NIT, its first postseason berth since 1999. Kest has a 97-120 record at Akron as its all-time winningest coach, and a 323-273 mark in 21 seasons as a head coach at four schools.
Kest, a Slippery Rock graduate from northeast Ohio, had new Gannon women's head coach Jim Brunelli on her staff for two seasons. Brunelli succeeded Cleve Wright, who left Gannon for MAC school Miami of Ohio and who will meet Akron twice in the 2013-14 season.

Wolves' bats come alive just in time
The hitting showed up Friday and for the most part, so did the pitching.
And that combination was lethal enough to send the South Kitsap baseball team into yet another West Central District Tournament as the Wolves pounded Wilson 13-3 in the Narrows League Tournament at Bremertons Legion Field.
It gets us another week of baseball which is a thrill for me because I like being with these guys, South coach Jim Fairweather said. We have a few things to shore up on.
Matt Hudson got the run support he has been missing most of the year Friday and took care of the rest himself as South comes out of the Narrows League as a sixth seed and will face the No. 2 seed out of the Greater St. Helens League, either Hudsons Bay or Prairie, at 11 a.m. Saturday at Mount Tahoma High School. The winner of that game will play again at 5 p.m. while the loser is done for the year.
And while it seemed South was done for the year just a week ago, everything came together Friday just like Fairweather thought it would.
I told these guys that we are a dam thats ready to burst, he said. We are so close, so close. I know we are a good team and we just need to come out and its just going to happen. Someones going to get a hit and then anothers going to come and then all of sudden its just going to open up.
And thats exactly what happened, Fairweather said. It took us a little while, of course. But it was nice, it was just nice to do that.
The Wolves pounded four Wilson pitchers for 10 hits and took advantage of nine walks as the offense finally sprung to life.
Weve been working really hard this week and it showed, the bats came alive, designated hitter Ryan Cosgrove said. We need to keep that confidence and keep it going into the playoffs.
Cosgrove led the charge going 3-for-4 with three RBI. His two-run double in the fourth inning broke the game wide open as South scored six times to take a 9-3 lead.
And if it wasnt Cosgrove getting it done at the plate, it was Dan Dillard, who was 2-3 with two RBI, or Doug Franz who was 1-2 with three runs batted in.
And with the newly found run support, Hudson cruised to the five-inning win.
(Getting early run support) helped a lot, it helped me settle down, Hudson said. Just knowing I had them there, to pick up my back if I made a bad pitch.
Hudson, who ran his season mark to 5-5, mixed his 107 pitches well, keeping the Wilson hitters of balance with a heavy dose of split-finger fastballs. In all, Hudson struck out seven, walked just two and allowed just one earned run.
I was pleased with the way we played, Fairweather said. I was pleased with Matts gutsy performance. I thought we hit the ball pretty well.
The Wolves had been putting plenty of pressure on its pitching over the final three weeks of the season as the bats went dormant. In fact, Fairweather even toyed with the idea of pitching junior Andrew Thatcher Friday instead of Hudson but changed his mind.
I talked myself into it, Fairweather said. We all thought he deserved it. He works hard, he does things the way we ask him too and his struggles arent all his fault. We havent played defense (behind him).
And South looked like it would fall back into that all too familiar pattern Friday after blowing a quick 3-0 lead in the third. Two errors led to two runs and the Wolves found themselves tied.
But South rallied with the huge fourth inning where they banged out three extra-base hits and the defense was solid after that, especially a very nice over-the-shoulder catch by centerfielder Kyle Pease in the fifth inning.
Thats was an effort that people need to see, Fairweather said of Peases catch. Thats how hard we want to play all the time all day every day.
Now if South can just keep the combination of pitching and defense along with the hitting, who knows what could happen.
Im not going to jinx ourselves, well keep working at it, Fairweather said. But that would be nice if it were the case. The pitching, for us, has been the strong point and at the beginning of the season, I thought it would be the opposite.
I thought our hitting would carry us. It would be nice if the hitting came along because our pitching has been pretty good.

Amarillo detectives are investigating the city's 10th homicide of the year, which occurred Saturday in an apartment complex parking lot. Detectives speculate one or more auto burglars may have been caught in the act and stabbed a man to get away.
Joseph David Woods, 24, who had just celebrated his birthday Friday, was stabbed once in the stomach about 4 a.m. in the parking lot of Brighton Court Apartments, formerly Doubletree Apartments, 1550 Bell St., while checking the parking lot for auto burglars. Woods was a resident of the complex.
Woods' girlfriend drove him to Northwest Texas Hospital, where doctors performed surgery. Woods lived through the surgery and was taken to recovery where "he took a turn for the worse," police said. Woods died during another emergency surgery Saturday afternoon.
Lt. Ed Smith of the Potter / Randall Special Crimes Unit said several people were in the parking lot checking for auto burglars when Woods was stabbed. He said one or more suspects were around a white pickup when the stabbing occurred.
Witnesses have been unable to identify any suspects, and a murder weapon has not been recovered, Smith said. Smith also said he did not know yet if any cars actually were broken into during or before the murder.
Homicide detectives did not begin their investigation until Woods died - several hours after he was stabbed - and the crime became a homicide. By then, the crime scene had been changed, and a white Chevrolet pickup, which may have been used during the stabbing as a hiding place, was driven by its owner Saturday morning and then returned in the afternoon, detectives said.

Friends of a recently deceased man made a disturbing discovery inside his home Wednesday.
Investigators were called to a Deltona home on Humphrey Boulevard Wednesday night.
Former co-workers of the 63-year-old man who died were helping his elderly mother clean out the home and found bags full of child pornography inside and outside the house, investigators said.
Deputies said there were bags alongside the pool filled with images of nude children, along with containers full of little girls hair ties, clothing and adult sex toys.
There were also bags on the bottom of the pool, investigators said.
Top video: Caught on camera: Bear wanders into garage, steals dog food
Deputies don't believe there are any victims, but that someone was likely downloading pornography.
The owner, the man who died, does not have a criminal history.

Host-based intrusion detection is a serious consideration for people wishing to stay safe online from as-yet unknown threats.
Knowing exactly what's happening under the hood is also the first step in controlling what your computer does and when. Linux has enjoyed the protection of major open source intrusion detection systems (IDS) for some time.
Windows users have fewer options, but that doesn't mean the threats facing it are any less dangerous. The landscape is now changing so fast that it takes a large and growing online security industry to keep up.
To help gain and keep the upper hand, it's becoming necessary to counter unknown threats as well as trying to spot and stop the known ones. To help, a new class of anti-malware has emerged.
Combining the advantages of an intrusion detection system (IDS) with other software can help detect and block malicious activity, and even clean up after a successful attack.
Detecting intrusions
There are two main types of IDS, which differ in the scope of their protection. A network IDS (NIDS) sits at a strategic point on the network – such as between the internet router and the internal network – where it can see all the data packets as they flow by. It inspects all traffic flowing across, into and out of the network, looking for activity indicating a remote attack.
By contrast, a host-based IDS (HIDS) is installed on each networked computer, and monitors traffic flowing in and out of just that machine. This second type of IDS can be quite specialised, and can monitor individual aspects of the system and its behaviour – such as changes to the Registry.
A protocol-based IDS (PIDS) is an even more dedicated IDS. It's installed on a server (or somewhere it can see all the traffic flowing in and out of the server) and monitors use of the server's specific network connections. It might be installed on a web server protocols, for example.
The detection techniques employed by an IDS fall into several categories. The simplest of these is signature-based. Like most antivirus packages, this tests a huge number of traffic patterns against a large database of profiles generated by known attack types. As with antivirus software, this database must be updated regularly, as new attack signatures become available.
Unlike static virus signatures however, an IDS attack signature has a distinct time element because it needs to understand the order, sequence and possibly even the delays between the packets involved in the attack as they arrive.
Anomaly detection
Anomaly-based intrusion detection is more sophisticated and intelligent. It first establishes a baseline of 'normal' network activity by monitoring network traffic for a while, including the general amounts of bandwidth used, the protocols used, the associated ports, the number of connections and which devices generally connect to each other.
Once in detection mode, the system will compare this baseline to subsequent network traffic patterns. Anything out of the ordinary is considered suspicious.
POSSIBLE THREATS: If you find something potentially dodgy on your system, you can view its details and even add a note for future reference so you don't forget
In an application protocol IDS (APIDS), the baseline is even more specific and has to be far more detailed. To be effective, the APIDS monitors the traffic received and transmitted by the network protocol, so it has to understand in depth the way the protocol is being used in order to look for anything that deviates from the way it's normally used.
Regardless of the detection technique used, once an IDS identifies suspicious activity, it can take two courses of action: active or passive. A passive IDS simply detects and logs anomalies in system behaviour and reports them to the user or system administrator.
An active IDS (intrusion prevention system) can respond automatically to the perceived threat by blocking incoming IP addresses, blocking specific applications from transmitting data, blocking potentially malicious changes to the system, and even by preventing code from running.
WinPatrol has been protecting computers for over a decade, and has just received an overhaul for Windows 7. Although the commercial version has some very useful facilities, the free one is perfectly good for protecting computers on a home network.
After downloading, run the installation executable and click 'Next'. That's all there is to it. At the end, click 'Finish' to run the application and the user interface will appear. If you have audio enabled you'll hear a 'woof' sound.
The main user interface is packed with three rows of tabs, though some are only accessible in the Plus (paid) version of the software. Click the 'Startup programs' tab and you'll see a list of all the programs that start when Windows does.
Although Windows 7 is blindingly fast to boot up compared to earlier versions of the operating system, it can be slowed by this extra load. By selecting a program and clicking 'Remove' or 'Disable', you can temporarily suspend auto-startup of that program, or if it proves to be the one increasing your system boot up time, remove it from the list.
Removal doesn't uninstall the program. If there's anything in this list that you don't recognise, select it and press the 'Info' button. If you're still not convinced that it's benign based on the information, disable it and reboot. If nothing untoward happens, remove it from the list.
The next tab, 'Delayed start', enables you to stagger the startup times of different applications. If you always use a browser first when you boot up and log in, you can add it to the 'Delayed start' tab to make sure that there are no resource contentions, and that the rest of the operating system is up and running before the browser tries to connect to the internet.
Click 'Add', then navigate to the executable for the application. Select it and click 'OK'. Select whether you want the application to start for all users or just you then click 'OK'. Now click the 'Delay options' button. Enter a title for the startup job and a time to wait from bootup to running the application. If the program needs any command line options passing to it, enter these in the 'Parameters' box.
Finally, select the way you want the program to appear – maximised, in a window or minimised to the task bar. Click 'OK' and the name of the delayed startup job changes to the one you entered. Reboot and WinPatrol should implement your changes.
Many people refuse to upgrade to the latest version of Internet Explorer, which means it's the target of all kinds of malicious and potentially malicious browser helper objects (BHOs). These extend the functionality of IE and are loaded when you run the browser. They can also increase the browser's startup time.
They often can't be uninstalled or even seen by normal users – perfect for installing adware and spyware.
Cleaning up IE
Click on the 'IE Helpers' tab in WinPatrol and you'll see a long list of these, plus the browser's toolbar add-ons. If you're irritated by installation programs insisting that you install the Yahoo Search bar, for example, you can remove it here.
The amount of on-screen space taken up by IE's normal toolbars is substantial, without having it further reduced by something you don't want. Select a BHO or toolbar from the list and click 'Info' to learn more. If you don't like what you see, click 'Remove' to delete it from IE and the system.
You'll be asked to confirm your choice before deletion takes place. Malware can also pose as or hijack legitimate scheduled tasks. To inspect these, click the 'Scheduled tasks' tab. Again, click 'Remove' to take any unnecessary or dodgy tasks out of the list.
This and the other two startup tabs are also a great way to clean up a new PC that annoys you with nagware. Now we can move on to the meat of host-based intrusion detection: detecting changes to the system that may indicate the presence of malware, spyware, or adware.
Click the 'Options' tab to configure WinPatrol for detection. Homepage hijacking is finding increasingly sophisticated roles in online crime. With 'Detect Changes to Internet Explorer home and search pages' selected, you'll be notified of any changes to the browser or its configuration.
Detecting changes
The HOSTS file is a throwback to the days before DNS, but it's also the first port of call for any internet-aware program trying to resolve domain names into IP addresses. These programs will use the domain/IP address mappings in the HOSTS file without question, so if this file is changed it can make you believe you're accessing legitimate websites when in fact you're being redirected to malicious ones.
HOSTS FILE: If malware makes changes to the HOSTS file on your computer, it can redirect you to anywhere on the internet without your knowledge
The 'Warn if changes are made to my internet HOSTS and critical system files' option will keep you safe from this form of attack. You can also view the 'HOSTS' file with the appropriate button; Notepad pops up to display it.
The 'HOSTS' file contains a few examples of mappings between DNS names and the associated IP addresses. If you see one without a hash ('#') symbol before it, indicating that the line is edited out, and you didn't put it there, place a hash at the start of the line, save the file and reboot to see if it breaks anything. If not, malware may well be trying to redirect you to a malicious page.
As WinPatrol runs, it creates a log file of events that you can view with the 'WinPatrol log' button. The resulting HTML page gives information about everything that happens on your PC. Pressing the 'Spreadsheet report' button will create a spreadsheet containing the same data. This is written to 'BillP\WinPatrol' in the 'Program Files' folder of your C:\ drive.
One last useful option on this tab is 'Lock file types'. If you've ever been frustrated by legitimate programs changing your carefully modified file associations even when you asked them not to, this option is for you. It prevents such changes from happening.

Of the 400 competitors in 15 sports at last weekend's West Michigan Youth Wintersportsfest, none were tougher than half dozen competitiors in Sunday's orienteering event at Double JJ Ranch and Golf Resort.
Wading through waist-deep snow to find the 20 check points scattered around a 3-mile course in Sunday's blizzard was the easy part, said race director Matt VanderSys.
"Everyone should get a special award for just getting here," VanderSys said.
Wind chills of -25, whiteouts and howling winds couldn't wipe the grins from the faces of the half dozen adventurous souls who strapped on their snowshoes and headed out into the storm.

What a BP Settlement Could Look Like
Loren Steffy, Fuel Fix
With news Sunday that the start of the mammoth BP trial was delayed for a week, the speculation has immediately moved to talk of a settlement and what it would look like.
In recent months, it appeared that BP and the government would come to some sort of deal before the case made it to court. That thinking gained momentum as a minority party in the Macondo well, MOEX Offshore 2007 LLC, agreed to settle government claims for $90 million.

Anzû (mythology)
|This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (September 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Anzû, before misread as Zû (Sumerian: AN.ZUD2, AN.ZUD, AN.IM.DUGUD.MUŠEN, AN.IM.MI.MUŠEN; cuneiform: AN.IM.MI-mušen), also known as Imdugud, is a lesser divinity or monster in several Mesopotamian religions. He was conceived by the pure waters of the Apsu and the wide Earth, or as son of Siris.[1] Anzû was seen as a massive bird who can breathe fire and water, although Anzû is alternately seen as a lion-headed eagle (like a reverse griffin).
Stephanie Dalley, in Myths from Mesopotamia, writes that "the Epic of Anzu is principally known in two versions: an Old Babylonian version of the early second millennium [BC], giving the hero as Ningursu; and 'The Standard Babylonian' version, dating to the first millennium BC, which appears to be the most quoted version, with the hero as Ninurta". However, the Anzu character does appear more briefly in some other writings, as noted below.
Sumerian and Akkadian myth[edit]
In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, Anzû is a divine storm-bird and the personification of the southern wind and the thunder clouds.[2] This demon—half man and half bird—stole the "Tablet of Destinies" from Enlil and hid them on a mountaintop. Anu ordered the other gods to retrieve the tablet, even though they all feared the demon. According to one text, Marduk killed the bird; in another, it died through the arrows of the god Ninurta. [1]
Anzu appears in the Sumerian Lugalbanda and the Anzud Bird (also called: The Return of Lugalbanda).
Anzu also appears in the story Inanna and the huluppu tree [2], which is part of the Akkadian story of Gilgamesh in the section called Gilgamec, Enkidu and the nether world.
Babylonian and Assyrian myth[edit]
The shorter Old Babylonian version was found at Susa. Full version in Dalley, page 222 and at The Epic of Anzû, Old Babylonian version from Susa, Tablet II, lines 1-83, read by Claus Wilcke
The longer Late Assyrian version from Nineveh is most commonly called "The Myth of Anzu". Full version in Dalley, page 205. An edited version is at Myth of Anzu.
Also in Babylonian myth, Anzû is a deity associated with cosmogeny. Anzû is represented as stripping the father of the gods of umsimi (which is usually translated "crown" but in this case, as it was on the seat of Bel, it refers to the "ideal creative organ").[3][4] Regarding this, Charles Penglase writes that "Ham is the Chaldean Anzû, and both are cursed for the same allegorically described crime," which parallels the mutilation of Uranus by Cronus and of Set by Horus.[1]

Howard deserves praise for upholding Constitution
Erie County is fortunate to have Timothy Howard as sheriff. He is courageous and a protector of Second Amendment rights. Obviously he has read the Constitution and understands everything there is to know about "shall not be infringed." He takes his oath to uphold the Constitution and intends to place that at the forefront as he exercises his obligations of the office.
The SAFE Act is reminiscent of the Jim Crow laws of the last two centuries, which were repealed only when people were courageous enough to oppose them. Rosa Parks comes to mind, since she was a focal point to bring justice and get rid of unconstitutional and unfair laws. The SAFE Act is a violation of constitutional and civil rights protections and should be repealed. Howard is a leader in this effort.
There is nothing in this law that would do anything positive that would have prevented the mass murders committed by crazy people, and the violent criminals won't obey the law, so it affects only the honest gun owner.
President Obama ordered his Justice Department to not enforce the Defense Of Marriage Law and The News had no objection to that. Here, a top law enforcement officer is actively fighting an unjust and unconstitutional law and refuses to enforce useless provisions (like having deputies count the number of rounds in a magazine) owned by an honest gun owner.
Howard will enforce domestic violence laws or any criminal actions that put people in danger. That is what we expect from a good cop. Wasting time on useless laws is also a waste of taxpayer money. That should be encouraged, not criticized.

"The best spot on the web for Spurs fans we've seen." – Deadspin (Blogdom's Best: San Antonio Spurs) "Sure, there are still lots of forums and blogs where 'fans' rant and rave about how incompetent Coach (insert target's name here) is, or post rumors as 'news,' but the good ol' fashioned fan site is an endangered species. That's why we were so happy to hear from the proprietors of ProjectSpurs.com, a fan site complete with a podcast, forums and analysis from a silver-and-black perspective…for pure fan-de-monium, it's worth a visit." – David King (San Antonio Express-News Cybersports)
"The lads at ProjectSpurs.com are at it again, and this time you don't even need your computer's speakers to join the fun. Much creative energy has been expended lately on the Spurs fan Web site on what has blossomed into an eight-posting tribute to Fabricio Oberto. … eight postings with this kind of stuff. Good stuff, especially considering that one national writer observed that the Spurs look kind of bored lately. Somebody needs to encourage these guys to keep it up." – David King (San Antonio Express-News Cybersports)

"Just wanted to say "Thanks" with out you guys I would be out of the loop with my Spurs. Right now I'm station (USAF) in Omaha Nebraska and the only Spurs info I can get is from you guys. Being stuck here in the midwest sucks because I so far away from any NBA team. The only time I get see a live game is when I go home or if I'm TDY were they have a team. Last game I went to was a Jazz Sonics game in Salt Lake. I was good to see D. Brown. I made sure to sport my Spurs gear (which I take with me world wide). I even made a sign that said "Devin Come Home". Well, like I said before thanks and keep up the good work." – Fan email

Mike and Jeff of Project Spurs are basketball minds on par with the best post-game broadcast crews in the NBA. FSN, Comcast, whatever. Somebody salary these guys! They're a dedicated duo who've been through 184 episodes and counting. They do a terrific job of analyzing the Spurs. Patrick Crawley (Basketball Fiend)
I grew up in San Antonio for 18 years. When I went to college, my Spurs life took a drastic hit as there aren't many games televised in Oklahoma. I found a job here, and while I love my job, I am stuck here in a windy, flat, college football town that would rather show highlights and analysis of a college football game than televise an NBA basketball game. So I have had to be creative. The Project Spurs blog has truly been a lifesaver. They show quarter by quarter, in-depth analysis of every game, as well as keep me up to date on all big news every day. It will only be a matter of time before this blog is read by many thousands of readers daily. – JakesterT2
Being in LA means I don't get to see Spurs games unless it's on TNT or ABC or ESPN or unless I can find an illegal feed online. So I have to find other ways to keep up to date for my Spurs fix…Project Spurs has given me a way to interact with other Spurs fans and lets me know that I'm not the only non-San Antonio Spurs fan alive. I not only visit your site daily, I visit it multiple times a day (@work, in class, random times throughout the day, when I get home from work, even in the bathroom since i have an iphone now…=P) just to look for up to date info on our beloved Spurs. I know I said it during my first encounter with the chat a few weeks back, but I really am grateful for all that you guys do to give me a chance to be in touch with other Spur fans. – Amy from LA

AMERICAN MASTERS: Jimi Hendrix
Friday, June 24 at 9:00 p.m.
Experience guitarist Hendrix's life and music through never-before-seen performances and interviews.
A pioneering electric guitarist, Jimi Hendrix (November 27, 1942-September 18, 1970) had only four years of mainstream exposure and recognition, but his influential music and riveting stage presence left an enduring legacy.
"American Masters" traces the gone-too-soon guitar great's remarkable journey from his hardscrabble beginnings in Seattle, through his stint as a U.S. Army paratrooper, unknown sideman to R&B stars such as Little Richard, Joey Dee and the Isley Brothers, and his discovery and ultimate international stardom.
"American Masters: Jimi Hendrix – Hear My Train A Comin'" unveils previously unseen performance footage and home movies taken by Hendrix and drummer Mitch Mitchell while sourcing an extensive archive of photographs, drawings, family letters and more to provide new insight into the musician's personality and genius. Recently uncovered film footage of Hendrix at the 1968 Miami Pop Festival is among the previously unseen treasures featured

I couldnt be convinced by anyone that Khan will have a easy, event free fight from now on, but he's essential viewing. His glaring weaknesses make it so.
How often do rematches go exactly like the first act?

Khan will always have problems and risk being knocked out against anybody with power (i.e. Maidana, Garcia, Mattheyse) no matter how patient he's being. The only difference I saw in Khan last night was that he stepped off after throwing a fast flurry of punches, rather then staying in there in trading - which is good, don't get me wrong (except that last night it probably would have benefitted him to get a legit KO lol). But he knew Molina couldn't hurt him, and Molina was hitting him (landing around 25%-28% of his *cough* "power" punches). Everything else he pretty much did the same as he always has (making the same tactical errors and no real improved defense). I don't know if you can actually say Khan has improved under Hunter yet, or if he finally decided to actually follow the game plan layed out by his coach.
Don't get me wrong, Khan has talent. He always has. And if he can continue to stick to the game plan layed out by Hunter (who seems like an incredibly calming figure for Amir) and stay out of the fire fights, he should be able to easily outbox the B-B+ type fighters. Even in a rematch against Peterson, IF KHAN ACTUALLY STICKS TO THE GAME PLAN, he would probably do a lot better the he did in the first fight, if he uses the type of patience that he did last night against Molina (although Lamont is a constant pressurer). It's when he steps in there against top competition that can withstand those first few rounds of fast flurries and counter punch with power, that he will always find himself in trouble with IMO. GBP gave him the perfect opponent to look good against last night and boost Khans confidence.
Same result in a rematch with Garcia, maybe just later in rounds until Khan gets la-la landed.

Garcia wins a rematch at any point. I think we have seen the high water mark for Khan and I see Garcia getting better. With Hunter it may all be too late. Khan needed a Hunter when he was developing years ago. Right now his habits are so ingrained that even if he is taught the right stuff it won't get in on a habit automatc level for ages.

Danny KO's him again. Khan still fights too much like an amateur with his pitty pat punches imo. Although I do commend him for fighting a more posed fight. I'm still not sure how he handles a pressure fighter like Rios or a power puncher like Garcia. He needs 2 more fights under Virgil Hunter's teaching to rewire his tendencies in the ring, then we can make a case for him to fight Danny. If he fights him in the next year, he gets flattened again.
He should fight Peterson again and go from there.

My first comment is that this is a bad idea, and does not provide the
security you want. Not the least problem is that MAC addresses are
trivial to change, and trivial to figure out. Second, MAC addresses
never pass a router (level 3) boundary, so any filtering has to be done
on the same (bridged) network as the workstation of interest resodes.
Plenty of routers and bridges (switches) allow you to filter on MAC
addresses, lathough in the case of routers they might only do so for
protocols they're bridging. So you might have to do two layers (a
separate transparent bridge and then a router) - although that can be
virtual and not necessarily two physical boxes.
Given how easy MAC addresses are to spoof, why not just use IP
addresses for filtering, and set up your DHCP server to allocate a
certain range of IP addresses to the "known" MACs? Better yet, put two
separate subnets on the same LAN, and give DHCP leases to one or the
other based on MAC address, and then just bind the router interfaces to
one (or both) subnets as appropriate (and have appropriate forwarding
rules to prevent indirect routing back to the internal LAN).
But again, no of that produces anything you could properly call
If you really have both visitors and internal users on the same LAN,
you should treat it as a DMZ (or worse), and require some form of
authentication (and probably VPN) for your authorized users to access
your internal network. That might be slightly easier to implement if
this is wireless, where you could set up two overlapping wireless
networks, one "public" and the other properly secured so that only your
internal users can authenticate to the access points that connect back
to your internal network. Over a wired LAN you might be able to deploy
something like PPPoE, and authenticate at the PPP level and segregate
traffic that way at the router at the other end of the PPPoE link.
A problem with all of the schemes that will allow you to share a single
LAN for both internal users an visitors is that it will require the
internal users to authenticate, which will require at least some work
for all of those installations. I like my "public" wireless
overlay network. Leave your internal users wired (or on a separate
wireless network), and just insist that the visitors have Wi-Fi
adapters on their laptops.

The wildfire in Arizona continued to burn out of control Friday morning, threatening to cross into neighboring New Mexico.
Residents of Luna, N.M., located seven miles from the Arizona state line, have been ordered to evacuate their homes.
"When significant smoke and odor exists, residents in the Albuquerque area should avoid physical activity outdoors," Air Quality Division officials said in an alert.
"People with heart or lung disease, older adults, and children should remain indoors and keep activity levels low when they see or smell smoke," the advised.
Meanwhile, more than 3,000 firefighters continued battled the blaze that's become the second largest fire in Arizona's history. The fire has burned more than 600 square miles, destroyed dozens of structures, and forced thousands to flee their homes. One problem for firefighters - the fire is creating its own weather.
"The fire is so intense, it has so much heat, that it actually forms its own little thunderstorm at the top of the smoke plume," National Weather Service meteorologist Alex Hoon explained.
So far, firefighters have managed to contain only 5 percent of the blaze. The blaze was reportedly sparked by a camp fire, but overgrown ponderosa pine forests are feeding the flames.

Niagara Frontier Transporation Authority police late Tuesday continued to investigate why a Metro Bus struck man earlier in the day at Kenmore and Delaware avenues.
The man was taken to Erie County Medical Center after the 12:30 p.m. collision. A witness told authorities the pedestrian was in a crosswalk when the bus made a left-hand turn into the intersection and hit him. The man's name and medical condition were not released.

- - Questions on training. (http://www.mmaforum.com/mma-newbie-section/104137-questions-training.html)
Questions on training.
I am a new student at Roufusport MMA Academy. I am working Muay Thai Kickboxing and BJJ. I am only 5-6 classes in, but my bjj isn't so good to everyone elses. Obviously, some of the people have been training there for a while, but what kind of tips could you guys offer to a new guy in bjj?? Also, my trainign days usually consist of Muay Thai first for an hour, then bjj after for another hour. Would you recommend I train separate days? BJJ first because of the demanding nature? or is what I am doing just fine?
There isn't really any magical ways to get good at BJJ. It all come down to the number of hours you put on the mats. I can't tell you much about MMA since I'm new too, but since I've been in the BJJ communauty for about a year and a half, let me tell you something: Just focus on the basic.
Basic knowledge is what you should focus on, if you try new techniques and fancy stuff everytime, you'll just forget it when you grapple. Have an escape or two for every position, find a couple of submissions you like and work on it. Also, focus on using THE LESS STRENGH you possibly use. That way you're technique will get much better and you'll be able to take on bigger and stronger guys.
And remember, BJJ is way more complex than it seems, you'll probably be in the "I suck" zone for 1-2 years before you start being "just okay".
If the Muay Thai training is pretty demanding (which it should be), then I's recommend training your BJJ on different days - at least as a beginner. The reason is that if you're exhausted by the MT training your brain won't be able to fully concentrate anymore. This is really bad for learning new stuff. You won't have full focus and won't execute the techniques properly. That way you will naturalise sloppy technique, because your body and brain just trained sloppy technique. It won't correct it by itself, but memorise what you did and that's sloppy technique. For a beginner it is very important to learn clean and propper technique to get a good technical base.
Later when you're more advanced you can do multiple demanding lessons consecutively, as it's more about using your technique in pratice than learning completely new stuff.
First of all, this is just advice from me personally. I've been training in BJJ for 2 years total and Muay Thai for a little more than that but I did Boxing/Wrestling before that so I know what it's like to train hard. Here is my advice. For starters, there is no too much or too little. If you can only get in there 1 day a month then do it. If you can get in there 7 days a week, twice a day then do that as well. As far as the order goes, either order is going to be beneficial and here's how. Either way, you're not going to be 100%. If you're not during striking, when you are 100%, you'll be a more "conditioned" striker and vice versa.
When it comes to skill level, I'm assuming you're still a white belt and while I've seen white belts beat people at higher belts, that means nothing. At while belt, all you need to focus on is surviving, not getting submitted, and not getting winded or trying to muscle your way out. It'll be more frustrating for a blue/purple/brown/black belt if they can't submit you than it would be if you muscle them off of you and don't know what to do afterwards. Also, stretch daily. I recommend 3X a day including whatever stretches your gym has you doing before workouts. Nothing serious, just 5 minute stretches here and there when you can.
Finally, watch videos. While that won't help you more than 5-10% with your BJJ game, every little bit counts. Don't rush anything either. Odds are, you'll be a white belt for a year (give or take a couple months) so focus on surviving. Finally, when it comes to Muay Thai, do what they say. Shadow box when you can at home and try to pair up with those better than you but also work with people who are new and wanna come out and throw sloppy haymakers or bumrush you from the get go. It's all handy!
Just train more, and exercise more passion and determination.
You will be rewarded with credits.

Ferris vows to come back better than ever
Ireland flanker Stephen Ferris is confident he will return from ankle surgery a better player.
Ferris, who won the last of his 35 Test caps against England in last year's Six Nations, went under the knife last month after picking up the injury on RaboDirect PRO12 duty with Ulster. But he insists he is winning his fitness battle and is targeting a mid-February return while also hoping to play some part in this year's Six Nations.
"I'm the strongest I've ever been in the gym and personally I feel absolutely fantastic, so I just can't wait to get back out there," he told the Irish Independent. "When I do get back out there, I think I'll be better than I was when I left off."

Green blog: Landfill Harmonica
Upcoming feature-length documentary Landfill Harmonic focuses on a musical orchestra with a difference in Paraguay, where young musicians play instruments made from trash.
Cateura, Paraguay is a town essentially built on top of a landfill. Garbage collectors browse the trash for sellable goods, and children are often at risk of getting involved with drugs and gangs. When orchestra director Szaran and music teacher Favio set up a music program for the kids of Cateura, they very quickly find themselves with more students than instruments.
Unwilling to turn away potential students, the two music teachers look around for inspiration and come up with an inventive solution; instruments made out of trash. Today in Cateura there's an entire orchestra of assembled instruments, now called The Recycled Orchestra.
Landfill Harmonic shows how trash and recycled materials can be transformed into beautiful sounding musical instruments, but more importantly, it shows how imagination, creativity and resourcefulness can transform a community.
