Cyberwar is not a good thing, but it's a lot better than the alternative, according to the Israeli cabinet minister who is responsible for both the country's intelligence and nuclear-energy programs.
Israeli Deputy PM Dan Meridor avoided questions about any possible Israeli role in distribution of the Stuxnet worm, which Iranian officials charge was a purposeful effort by Israel and the West to sabotage its nuclear development efforts.
He did say cyber-war tactics, or even efforts to wage all-out cyberwar using tools like the Stuxnet worm is less "ugly" than real war, especially when that ugliness shows up online and in the news every day.
"People see this and can't take it," he said during a talk at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, a think tank dedicated to promoting Israel's strategic positions in global media and politics.
"Because it is difficult, one looks for other ways. One of those other ways is the intelligence community of all the world trying to do things that don't look that ugly, don't kill people."
Meridor was appointed by right-of-center Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, but has run for the Israeli Knesset on policies much farther to the left than Netanyahu's tough-minded interpretation of "peace for peace, " the core principal of Netanyahu's Likud party that calls for a strong defense against aggression, but not for instigating a fight when it can be avoided.
Netanyahu's government, along with the U.S., Great Britain and most of the U.N. has opposed Iran's efforts to develop nuclear weapons as a specific threat to Israel and destabilizing factor for the whole Middle East.
Israeli officials have hinted at an extensive cyberwar development program and endorsed the idea that it could do enough damage to deter potential enemies or damage their weapons, military preparations or even cause major disasters with online attacks at sites such as Iran's Bushehr nuclear energy facility, which was damaged in the Stuxnet attack.
Attacks of any kind invite reprisals, which must be defended against, and the potential for even greater virtual violence, but so does real war, real deterrence and real reprisals.
Given the horror of real war and comparatively low number of people who die from online attacks, not to mention the potential for smaller countries such as Israel to hold their own on the world stage, cyberwar is not the worst option available, Meridor said.
Iran responded to the Stuxnet attack – and to the assassination of one of its top nuclear scientists – by pointing the finger at Israel and the U.S. and by expanding the portion of its youth militia movement dedicated to cyberwar.
Neither the U.S. nor Israel have confirmed any role in Stuxnet, though some have hinted off the record that both may have been involved.
Israeli officials admitted testing Stuxnet, even before the attack on Iran, but deny on the record having had anything to do with the attack itself.

All the stores are loaded up and ready for Easter now!!!
All the stores are loaded up and ready for Easter now!!!
I love Outdoor Christmas Lights!!
It's exciting. This coming Monday is Clean Monday (or Ash Monday) here so that means only 40 days left till Easter
Merry Snowy Christmas
Love & Peace to the World
I guess people here aren't very excited about Easter.
I love Outdoor Christmas Lights!!
I'm excited,it's not Christmas but hey it's Easter
When it seems the magic slipped away...
We find it all again on Christmas Day.
*Seeing isn't believing.Believing is seeing.*
I just love to see the stores all change as every different holiday approaches.
I love Outdoor Christmas Lights!!
I can hardly contain my excitement, but I'm forcing myself to restrain it some. I don't want to set up my Easter tree too early. I try to fool people into thinking I'm somewhat sane.
Ha! Ha!
"Hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all."
I think it's awesome that you have an Easter Tree. My view is a bit different. I prefer to reserve the "tree" exclusively for Christmas. For me, it makes it that much more significant when the time comes. I still think what you do is a cool idea though.
I love Outdoor Christmas Lights!!

PSA: It's Time for an Affordable Augmented Reality Device
Could Polylens do for AR what Cardboard did for VR?
Oof. As stands, getting your face on a HoloLens is 'invite only' and will cost you an arm and a leg (that is, if your arm and leg collectively cost $3,000). The Meta 2 costs almost $1,000. Even Google Glass (RIP) is still priced at least a couple hundred bucks on eBay. For those looking to affordably experience augmented reality, the options are slim—which is why designer and developer Sabba Keynejad has created a DIY AR device, the Polylens, which costs under $30 to make.
The handmade Polylens AR device isn't something you can whip up at home on a whim—it'll require a trip to your local laser-cutting shop and some chemical coats to bond the parts together—but the objective is what makes this DIY HoloLens so interesting: to allow for the mainstream adoption of what is currently a pricy piece of hardware.
"I hope it will do what Cardboard did for VR," Keynejad told PSFK in an email.
To create the Polylens, Keynejad sketched designs in Illustrator, had the parts shaped at a laser-cutting shop, bonded the pieces together with four coats of a chemical solution, waited for it to dry, removed any extra film with a knife, and then cleaned and polished the final product. He hacked the Cardboard SDK to create a preview concept app, placed his smartphone on top of the lens, and voila:
The New York Times shipped over one million Cardboard headsets to its subscribers last year and troves of branded Cardboard headsets are being used as marketing gimmicks regularly. Right now, I could shell out just $15 and my own VR headset would be merrily on its way to my face. Augmented reality on the other hand has remained a more exclusive experience. Microsoft invited a select few to test out the HoloLens in a secret room in New York City. The late Google Glass was glasshole-shamed out of bars, restaurants and movie theaters. If I wanted to experience AR right now, I could download an app like Blippar and view AR through my smartphone screen, but a wearable experience is out of my budget.
That's what makes Polylens so intriguing, it's an affordable and WEARABLE alternative to the HoloLens and Meta 2. While I doubt the average person is going to laser-cut their own AR device upon reading this, I do think we are going to see more handmade alternatives popping up out of the maker movement until someone (*cough* Google *cough*) offers up a one-click affordable AR device option.

Retailers to Lure Holiday Shoppers In-Store
Each year more Americans are doing their holiday shopping online, but a majority still prefer the in-store experience.
Retailers also want people in their stores because they typically leave with more stuff, so they're pulling out all the stops to lure customers through the doors.
"Certain products are being offered only in the store," says Ronnie Volkening at the Texas Retailers Association. "A lot of the brick-and-mortar stores are offering a combination where you can shop at that store's online site, but then pick up the item at the store. So you get the best of both worlds."
Retailers call this "webrooming," or allowing the customer to see an item online and inviting them to the store to see in-person. Volkening says there are advantages to getting out of the house.
"When you go to the store you have sale associates there to answer your unique questions," he says. "You also get to touch and see what an item really looks like, rather than what it looks like on a screen."
Shopping expert Trae Bodge from RetailMeNot.com says the trick for retailers is to cater to both.
"Allowing them to shop in-store and browse, then make their purchase online or vice versa," says Bodge. "Those are the retailers which are really going to win each year."
Expert insist some items are just better bought in-store – such as clothing or appliances.

Can Lazio make it a German double?
After defeating Borussia Monchengladbach in the last round of the Europa League, Lazio will have to beat another German side to progress to the Quarter-finals.
Lazio started their European campaign in mid-August, and face VfB Stuttgart on Thursday evening in a tie which has wide implications for both Italian and German football. For one, the Biancocelesti are yet to taste defeat in this year's Europa League. Also in their five European home games this season, four wins and a draw, they have conceded just once and have kept four successive clean sheets at the Stadio Olimpico.
Lazio have selection issues going into the match in Stuttgart on Thursday night. They will be without their leading Serie A goal scorer Miroslav Klose, who is unlikely to play again this season. This is a massive blow to Lazio as they will miss the leadership and presence that he brings to all of Lazio's matches. However this means that Libor Kozák could lead the line in Germany. He is currently the competition's joint second highest scorer with five goals, two behind Napoli's Edison Cavani. Stefano Mauri and Abdoulay Konko are also sidelined for the game meaning that Lazio coach Vladimir Petkovic will be unable to pick his best starting eleven.
Lazio will be looking to their key players to make the difference over the two legs. This is none more the case than with their goalkeeper Federico Marchetti. The Italian international has been in fine form this campaign and has produced some superb performances, most notably against the Italian champions Juventus. Marchetti has developed since his sub-par performances at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa for Italy and Lazio now possess a goalkeeper with great reflexes, strong command and reliability.
It is the midfield that most games of football are won and in Hernanes and Antonio Candreva, Lazio have two of the best in that area in Serie A. Hernanes has once again produced stunning performances for the Roman club this season. He has been an ever presences in Lazio's Europa League run and has found the net eight times in Serie A this campaign. He is vital for Lazio and the way they set out to play. Everything goes through the Brazilian playmaker and Lazio will be keen to get him on the ball as much as possible.
Antonio Candreva did not start his career at Lazio too well. With constant rumours of him being a AS Roma fan and some indifferent performances, he did not make the impact that he was expected to make at the Stadio Olimpico after impressing at both Parma and Cesena. However after a string of fine goals and displays, Candreva is becoming a fan favourite in the Curva Nord and could well be the difference between Lazio and Stuttgart. But what about the German outfit?
Under the management of Bruno Labbadia, VfB Stuttgart have endured a mixed season. They are currently eleventh in the Bundesliga, only eight points above the relegation zone. However, in Europe they have performed well, finishing second in their group and beating Genk in the last round. Their Bosnian striker Vedad Ibisevic has been in excellent form, grabbing twenty goals so far this season in all competitions. Despite the club losing their star midfielder in January to Inter, Zdravko Kuzmanovic, Stuttgart still have talent in that area in the form of Christian Gentner and Martin Harnik. Lazio will be up against a familiarly face on Thursday as well. Federico Macheda was signed by Stuttgart in January from Manchester United on loan with a view to a permanent deal. The young Italian striker came through the Lazio youth system and will certainly have a point to prove against his home town team.
Lazio have the advantage of having the second leg of the tie at home, however, UEFA have ordered the game to be played behind closed doors after they decided to punish the club for "racist behaviour" by Lazio fans. The great atmosphere at the Olimpico, which had been evident during Lazio's previous European games this campaign, will be replaced by a silent and dull environment next Thursday; which is undoubtedly a disadvantage for the Italian side.
Serie A followers will be cheering on Lazio over the next week in Europe as Italy now only has six clubs in European club competitions instead of seven. This is due to a recent dip in Italian club performances in Europe and a great improvement in German performances resulting in Germany rising to third in the UEFA Country Coefficients, the system that decides how many clubs from each country compete in UEFA organised tournaments, ahead of Italy. The only way that Italy are to regain that position is if their club sides improve in Europe, which they have this season in both the Champions League and the Europa League. Thus Italian/ German ties in Europe now take on even more significance.
Overall Lazio should be quietly confident going into this tie. They have never lost in Rome to a German side and are enjoying a fantastic season especially compared to Stuttgart. However, the German outfit still have undoubted quality and Lazio have never won a match in Germany against a German team. Although a win in Stuttgart is not essential, a good result is if Petkovic and his men are going to continue their remarkable season.

Michael Schumacher may not be racing in Formula 1 next year but a car that he has helped develop certainly will be.
The seven-time world champion announced last month that he would be retiring from F1 at the end of the current season, and although he hasn't decided what he would do next, his mark will live on for at least another year.
"You imagine that next year's car has started to be basically made this year," Schumacher told F1Pulse.com. "My role is certainly in it and so is a part of my signature, as it has been in the last two years' car.
"It was not in the first year's car in 2010 - you were given what was there - but after that we certainly developed as a team to get closer to what we want to have," the 43-year-old pointed out.
For next season, Mercedes has retained Nico Rosberg, with the 27-year-old to team up with 2008 world champion Lewis Hamilton, who will be leaving McLaren at the end of the current season.
"It'll be interesting to see 2013 and the car," remarked Schumacher.

International law in a failed State
Despite the fact most domestic legislations (Piracy and Maritime Violence Act 2011, Maritime Zones Act 2005, section 65 of the Penal Code of the Republic of Seychelles) are inspired directly from The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982 (UNCLOS,1982), it took a serious blow when Somali piracy is in issue. Somali possesses all the characteristics of a 'failed State': there is no formal, functional or official government; all its institutions have collapsed without exception and consequently there is no law and order, the police force and the army are inexistent to maintain peace and security, various clans and different warlord leaders control the harbours, customs, airport and issuing licences in a collapsed State where socio-economic development is one of the lowest in the world and unemployment is one of the highest in the world. Actually, there is no institution or government which can represent Somalia and has enough authority to negotiate, represent, enforce or commit the State in an effective and legally binding system. Worse, the Somali Transitional Federal Government (TFG) is neither a State nor a government and it has never been mandated by the Somali people to represent them and is recognized neither by the UN/UNSC and the international community. Consequently, it has no power to sign and ratify treaties and international covenants. Ironically enough the UNSC, through its Resolutions (infra), are asking member States to cooperate with the Somali TFG, in the absence of a legitimate government, to eradicate piracy in the Indian Ocean. These UNSC resolutions erode completely the credibility of the UN. Strange, if Somali's sovereignty is not contested at the UN there is absolutely no Somali representatives at the UN, international and intergovernmental levels. The ultimate issue therefore is international law applicable in a 'failed State'?
Serious ambiguities under the UNCLOS, 1982
Most States prosecute pirates according to relevant Articles of UNCLOS, 1982 (Articles 100-107 of UNCLOS, 1982, are implemented in the domestic Piracy and Maritime Violence Act, 2011) but there are also several ambiguities under the UNCLOS, 1982 (explaining, may be, why the US has still not ratified it) especially to countries which are prosecuting pirates.
There is unfortunately no legal precise definition of the term 'pirate' under the UNCLOS, 1982. In the same rationale the terms 'committed for private ends' as stipulated under Article 101(a) UNCLOS, 1982, ask for an academic debate and there is still no clear interpretation of these terms either. Justice Jackson in the case of USS Ashland held that ''the definition of piracy in the international community is unclear'' and the charges retained against the 11 pirates for attacking the amphibious dock landing ship USS Ashland were dismissed as the prosecution failed to show that the 11 pirates violated American piracy law. However, in contrast, Justice Story in the case of United States v. Smith 1820, 5 Wheat 153, 161 remarked that: ''Whatever may be the diversity of definitions in other respects, all writers concur in holding that robbery or forcible depredations upon the sea animo furandi, is piracy.'' According to The Ambrose Light, 25 Fed. Rep. 408 case, the US Federal Court found that any armed ship in the sea must be under the authority of some State and if such a ship is not under the authority of any State then it should be treated as being under the authority of any State, it would be treated in the category of pirate ships, irrespective of if it has committed piracy or not. The same Article is again in dispute as it deals with ''private ship …against another ship...'' which means that illegal acts of violence may be committed against another ship, private or not, ''on the high seas'' such that there must be a 'two-ship requirement' where mutiny, crew seizures or passenger takeovers of one and the same vessel do not fall under the ambit of this Article. Coming back to 'on the high seas' (as per Article 101 (a)(i) UNCLOS, 1982 and Article 105 UNCLOS, 1982) pirate attacks on 'territorial waters' do not amount to piracy, per se. Furthermore, neither the Geneva Convention on the High Seas, 1958 and the UNCLOS, 1982 cover exactly what is meant by 'any illegal acts of violence' as stipulated in Article 101, UNCLOS 1982 such that some loopholes are filled by other relevant conventions such as the Hostage Convention, 1983 which entered into force one year after the UNCLOS became effective and the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Maritime Navigation (SUA Convention, 1992) coupled with the Djibouti Code of Conduct, 2009 modeled on the Regional Cooperation Agreement on combating Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships in Asia (ReCAAP) and the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), Code of Practice for the Investigation of the Crimes of Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships provide the necessary international and regional legal instruments to deal with international maritime piracy especially in the Gulf of Aden and off the coast of Somali in terms of cooperation, communication and sharing of information and capacity building to prevent acts of piracy and armed robbery against ships.
The Re Piracy Jure Gentium Case or Hostis Humanis Generis
Whether an actual robbery was essential for piracy has been discussed lengthily in the leading case of Re Piracy Jure Gentium 1934 A.C. 586, an important decision of the judicial Committee of the Privy Council (JCPC). The facts revealed that some Chinese nationals were arrested in 1931 on the charge of piracy but the Hong Kong Court referred the case to the JCPC as to whether actual robbery or committing of actual robbery is essential for piracy? Their Lordships held unanimously that for an act to constitute piracy, actual robbery is not essential. Treated as hostis humanis generis all States without exception are entitled to apprehend and punish persons accused of piracy because of the principle of universal jurisdiction applicable in case of piracy, war crimes and even to some extent to aircraft hijacking. In the Lotus Case, PCIJ, Series A, No. 10 (1927), p.70 Justice Moore stated that: ''A pirate is treated as an outlaw, as the enemy of mankind-hostis humanis generis-whom any nation may in the interest of all capture and punish''. The UNCLOS, 1982 is international customary law and any captured pirate (Gulf of Guinea near Nigeria, the Malacca Strait in Indonesia and the Indian Ocean) is subject to universal jurisdiction. In the leading case of re-Piracy Jure Gentium 1934 AC their Lords of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council had this to say: 'With regard to crimes as defined by international law, that law has no means of trying or punishing them. The recognition of them as constituting crimes, and the trial and punishment of the criminals, are left to the municipal law of each country. But whereas according to international law the criminal jurisdiction of municipal law is ordinarily restricted to crimes committed on its terra firma or territorial waters or its own ships, and to crimes by its own nationals whenever committed, it is also recognized as extending to piracy committed on the high seas by any national on any ship, because a person guilty of such piracy has placed himself beyond the protection of any State. He is no longer a national, but ''hostis humanis generis'' and as such he is justiciable by any State anywhere: Grotius (1583-1645) 'De Jure Belli ac Pacis,'', vol.2, cap. 20''. So may Victim State or Seizure State has the power to prosecute pirates provided they, inter alia, enjoy their fundamental rights (right to interpreter or translator, right to prepare their defense within a reasonable time, right to be defended by a representative of their choice, right to be tried by an impartial court) and that there is evidence of the crime (kidnapping, ransom taking, wounds and blows, drug and arms trafficking just to name a few that they have perpetrated on the 'high seas' (UNCLOs, 1982 provides for any illegal acts of violence on the 'high seas' and whether pirates may be prosecuted for crimes they have committed in their territorial waters are still a full academic debate but the answer is definitely "no" and a 'hot pursuit' (i.e chasing pirates from high seas until they are in their territorial waters) is "une grave atteinte à la souveraineté d'un Etat").
An interesting contribution to the debates on piracy. As an observer of the Somali piracy problem over the past few years, permit me to add a few random observations (it may be that you will be dealing with these in subsequent parts).
The 'sudden' upsurge of piracy off the coast of Somalia in 2007/8 (actually, not so sudden had we all been watching more closely) revealed the lamentable lacunae in national laws and international guidance on piracy; it simply hadn't been accorded the attention it needed, and legislators have been playing catch-up ever since. Some, like Seychelles and Mauritius, have amended their laws commendably quickly; others, such as the UK, are arguably behind-hand, which may be one reason why Britain has failed to prosecute even one alleged pirate. The other reason, and perhaps the more persuasive one, is the fear of convicted pirates claiming asylum in Europe after finishing their sentences.
The idea that Somali piracy is somehow a regional problem that requires the perpetrators to be tried regionally is very convenient to the major powers but hardly accords with reality. The ships and crews affected are truly global and, as pointed out above, "all States without exception are entitled to apprehend and punish persons accused of piracy because of the principle of universal jurisdiction applicable in case of piracy". Currently, the burden is being shared unequally. In particular, the flag states of the ships involved have, in my view, abrogated their responsibilities by failing to prosecute those accused of pirating 'their' ships. One may well question why, if a flag state is not prepared to prosecute those who attack and steal ships registered to that state, what exactly is a flag state's purpose? Why should the shipowner pay money to a registry that won't defend their interests? Certain small islands and one west African nation have done very well out of their open registry (aka 'flag of convenience') businesses, but piracy has shown that they are not acting responsibly to protect international trade.
The Enrica Lexie case, in which two Italian marines on an Italian oil tanker are accused of firing at and killing two innocent Indian fishermen in India's contiguous zone (12-24nm from the coastline), highlights the whole vexed issue of jurisdiction in and near territorial waters. It's a problem that is surely only going to intensify as competition for undersea resources grows and, in my view, urgently needs strong leadership from the IMO. However, the IMO isn't very keen to talk about such things. The Enrica Lexie affair, and also the rather similar USNS Rappahannock case in which a ship security guard shot an Indian fisherman, raised a lot of - so far unanswered - questions about the status of vessel protection detachments (VPDs) on merchant ships. VPDs seem to have proved more problematic on board ships than have private maritime security companies.
The Somali piracy business model is very different from the west African one or the Malacca Strait groups' modus operandi. The first is seizure for ransom, the second theft of cargo, the third mostly theft of valuables, so each needs a different approach to combat. And, as pointed out, there is an important distinction between piracy on the high seas and robbery at sea within territorial waters.
Whereas the problem in Somalia stems from the lack of a functioning government in that 'country', which has made it possible for pirates to anchor their 'prey' just offshore for long periods without being troubled by the law, the problem in the Gulf of Guinea is almost the reverse: strong countries that won't allow armed security aboard merchant ships except under very restricted terms, for the perfectly understandable reason that such coup-troubled states fear large numbers of foreigners lurking nearby with guns. And corruption has its part to play too, of course.
Underlying all forms of piracy, past and present, wherever it occurs in the world, is that the ocean is an essentially ungoverned space. UNCLOS, SUA and all the laws and regulations in the world are of no practical purpose if they cannot be enforced. This is of crucial importance to small island states such as Mauritius and its Indian Ocean neighbours, none of which has the capability to patrol its EEZ adequately. Vast tonnages of fish are extracted illegally, arms and people are smuggled, and drugs are trafficked. These are serious issues that all the Indian Ocean countries need to address with even greater vigour than they are currently doing through bodies like the IOC and IOR-ARC, because otherwise they will lead to escalating maritime crime and increase the potential for regional, and possibly international, conflict.

National commemorations of major historical events usually offer an incredible opportunity for the Right to showcase its jingoistic logorrhea about national identity and patriotism. Starting this coming August, the First World War centenary will most likely be no exception.
The Conservatives are battling on two different, though not unrelated, fronts. Contrary to what Max Hastings argues, it is the Right indeed who is "making an ideological argument out of World War I, as it does out of almost everything else in history."
In a Telegraph article, David Cameron puts particular emphasis on commemorating, and even celebrating the break-out of World War I as a moment of national unity and cohesion, "a fundamental part of our national consciousness."

192.168.1.254 is an address commonly used by routers and broadband modems with router functionality to access internal setting. 3Com, Westell, Linksys, Netopia and many other manufacturers use this IP address as the default gateway for their network-enabled products.
192.168.1.254 is a local network address: the router or modem will only allow access through devices that are connected directly, either through WiFi or a wired Ethernet connection.
How do I access 192.168.1.254?
Simply type "192.168.1.254" into the address bar of a browser. If properly connected, this should load a web page stored on the router. Usually, this will be a log-in screen. Once the correct username and password is provided, a new page will be loaded showing the device's console. From here, the router's settings can be changed.
Does 192.168.1.254 pose a security risk?
Once a hacker has gained access to your network, trying 192.168.1.254 is the next logical step to taking control of the router. Since the opening log-in page usually contains information on the device itself, finding out the default username and password is as simple as doing an Internet search.
To reduce the chances of a security breach, it's a good idea to try accessing 192.168.1.254, and, if it accesses the router log-in page, change the username and password. Many devices also have the ability to change the IP address to access the console.

It is so important to give back. There are so many people that have incredible talents, but do not have the means to achieve their full potential. Through philanthropic events, beauty schools are giving their students a chance to give back to their communities and inspire others to do that same.
Aveda Columbus Cares
Each month, Aveda Institute Columbus partners with a different local charity to raise money and awareness through their "Tip for a Cause" program. In lieu of a tip, Aveda Institute guests have the opportunity to donate to our cause of that month. Past organizations include Pets Without Parents, Choices, Sierra Club, Breast Cancer Awareness, Homeless Families Foundations and more! Aveda Institute Columbus has raised more than $390,000 for charity since they opened their doors in January 2004.
Remington College Prom Makeovers
The college's 12 campuses have provided free prom night makeovers to more than 1,600 students in the first two years of the program. High school students can get a head-to-toe makeover at The Salon at Remington College before heading to prom this weekend free of charge.

Paul Mitchell's "FUNraising" campaign has raised over $4.6 million for charitable organizations. Grassroots, dollar-by-dollar events like cut-a-thons, fashion shows, bake sales, and Casual for a Cause days have raised enough money to build two homes with Habitat for Humanity, along feed thousands of African orphans; and support the victims of AIDS, breast cancer, homelessness, hurricanes, abuse, and hundreds of other causes.

A while ago, I published a piece titled "Beyond Innovation: Adding Adoption To Your Business Objectives," which started with the observation that we're damn lucky in the technology business. Innovation, particularly on the software side, moves faster than in other industries because of fewer physical constraints. Oh, sure, a few hard realities apply, such as the speed of light, or the amount of heat your overclocked gaming PC generates. Those constraints are trivial, compared to the limits of physics and chemistry that innovaters in other industries face.
As good as rapid, unconstrained innovation can be, it's not without its problems. Technology companies want to give the human source of these innovations, whom we'll call The Smartest Person In The Room, enough latitude to put their talent and creativity to work. And heck, since they're smart, why not put them in charge of things needed to bring their innovative ideas to market, such as the development team? Unfortunately, there is such a thing as giving highly intelligent people too much latitude.

Well everybody- my prayers have been answered with a belated Valentine's Day present. After my TV debut today, I went to the adoption and what do you know? My new forever family came looking for me. They have a nice house with a fenced in yard for me to play in and best of all - I now have a new little yellow lab mix sister named Belle to play with! I already miss my foster family , but I can sure tell how much my new mommy and daddy love me and want me to be part of their family for good. Plus Belle likes to run around and play with me so I will sleep good at night. Thank you foster family for giving me the chance to have a full and happy life! And to all those out there- please spay and neuter your animals and make rescue your first option! Thank you all for your thoughts and support. Wish me luck!!!!
Hey everybody! I'm going to be the first featured puppy on Cincinnati's WCPO channel 9 PET PALS segment on February 19th - Saturday morning at 8:15 AM. If you wanna see what I am like up close and in person- tune in and take a look at my TV debut! Make sure you tune in early or you'll miss me! Then it's on to the Western Hills PETSMART for the adoptathon!!! Hope to see you all there!!!!!
So my foster mommy told me today that the doctor said I am all healthy and ready to go to my new forever family as soon as I find them. I love my furry family and my foster parents, but they say there is someone out there that really wants me and has been looking far and wide to find me. Is it you? I can't wait to start the rest of my life with my own family so hopefully someone will contact my human family soon! Wish me luck!!!

A Hong Kong resident named Howard has taken it upon himself to professionally mimic North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, a transformation chronicled in this video by the British media outfit Barcroft TV. "The key to becoming him is to always look unhappy and dissatisfied," Howard says. "It is his trademark look."
Howard has a nice gag where he walks into the South Korean and American consulates to apply for asylum. It's pretty funny.
Howard says that he turns heads wherever he goes, that clients pay him to show up at events as Kim and that some people really do believe he's the North Korean leader -- indeed, a few passers-by tell the camera as much.
I have to confess, though, that I don't think the impression is that good. Start with the "trademark look" – it's all wrong. Kim smiles all the time, a marked and highly significant contrast with his stern father and predecessor, Kim Jong Il. Kim Jong Un's beaming smile is plastered all over North Korean state media, part of his carefully crafted image as a caring, parental leader who loves his people deeply and earnestly. Here's one of many examples:
If Howard really wants to nail the Kim Jong Un look, he should spend more time doing fun stuff like riding roller coasters, cheering at basketball games and riding horses. He could even get a nice straw hat!

Government Procurement Information, 3/20/12
A recent random survey conducted by the procurement office of the Zhejiang provincial government of electronic products that won government bids between June and August 2011 found that some products provided by the Taiwanese computer manufacturer Acer (2353.TW), including the TravelMate 4750G, TravelMate 8481, and TravelMate 8437G, were provided at agreed supply prices roughly 20% higher than the market prices for the products during the same period. The Zhejiang provincial government has elected to suspend Acer's 2011-2012 computing product supplier qualifications for a six-month period. Toshiba and other brands were found to have acted similarly to Acer.
Editor's Note: "Agreed supply" refers to suppliers and products selected through a public bidding process.

Snobby Airs: NPR's Terry Gross Goes After Palin's 'Extreme' Religious Views
On Wednesday, the NPR talk show Fresh Air with Terry Gross aired an interview about Sarah Palin with Michael Carey, columnist and former editorial page editor of the Anchorage Daily News and public broadcasting host (of a political talk show called Anchorage Edition). Gross aggressively went after Palin on every front, including her "extreme" religious views:
GROSS: Sarah Palin's religious views strike some people as extreme. For example, in 2005, she attended a service at her former church, the Wasilla Assembly of God, where a bishop from Kenya prayed over her, asking Jesus to keep her safe from every form of witchcraft, and he had claimed to have driven out a witch from his village in Kenya. In June, she told a group that his prayers helped her to become governor. Have her religious views been seen as extreme at all within Alaska?
Mr. CAREY: Here in Alaska, many people would say, oh, the woods around Wasilla are full of backwards preachers. There's just lots of them out there, and the important thing is what did she do as governor for many people, not what did she believe. During the campaign, she's signed a number of conservative questionnaires showing that she was somebody who was interested in the agenda of the far right. That would be on things like teaching creationism in the school, abortion issue, church and state relationship, and so forth. And the question of gay rights will also be in there.
But she did not pursue that when she actually became governor. Those issues did not get on the front page, however, nationally, It's clear that one of the reasons she was picked is her fundamentalism. I've got friend - calls from friends of mine in the east, Boston, New York, and so forth who are worried about Sarah Palin and her religious views, which they categorize as extreme based on what they knew about these various backward preachers in Wasilla. And they were really worried, I think, that in time of stress, of national crisis, if Palin was a president of United States, she would call up some backward preacher in Wasilla and ask him what to do and he'd say, 'just a minute, I'll get back to you. Let me look at the book of Revelations.'
And that's sort of a caricature, but what's important about it is, her religious views didn't seem to be matched and don't seem to do matched by a depth of knowledge about other subjects, about complex international matters, until the question would be, would she in a time of stress fall back on what - the little she know and what the little she knows is the biblical. Let's put it that way.
It's clear that Carey isn't wild about the Wasilla Assembly of God, but he is telling liberal journalists that the way a governor governs his state offers a decent expectation of how they would govern on the national scene. Palin's answers to national journalists on social issues – insisting she would never punish a woman seeking to abort her baby, displaying how she's tolerant of gay people and has a gay friend, who she doesn't think of as her gay friend, if anyone was asking – display more of an effort to meet the media's hard line rather than the Bible's. Carey did seem to resent the way Easterners are tarring all Alaskans (even the sophisticated ones in public broadcasting) as yahoos:
GROSS: How do you think your state, the state of Alaska, is being changed by all the attention Sarah Palin is getting?
Mr. CAREY: Well, I don't know. If you sort of - if you believed only Maureen Dowd, you'd think we were just hillbillies who - the only thing we knew how to do was shop at Wal-Mart and talk. But I think, nationally, people are taking a closer look and sort of wondering. And here's a whole caricature of the place, and it's sort of like, you know, Sarah Palin riding the moose, the cartoon version of this, right. Everybody's an outdoorsman and hunter. I think what - it's a really good thing for the reporters that come up from all over the world to get a much realer sense of what this place is about and how it operates, and it's less of a kind of fictional construct in people's heads.
Gross walked Carey through the idea that it's not hard for Palin to be popular in Alaska when she's handing every family a $1200 check from all the oil business. She then elbowed Carey about how that money could have been better "invested" (as Obama would say) in government programs:
GROSS: What could she have done that she didn't do?
Mr. CAREY: Well, I mean, there would be - we have enough money that you could undertake healthcare initiatives that would be tremendously beneficial to families. That would be the first thing that would come to my mind.
GROSS: Day care?
Mr. CAREY: Yeah, and that kind of thing, too. The state could get much more active. I mean, there are programs up here, and she didn't fight them. But it's clear that we have enough money in the bank that if this was really important to somebody, in other words, having this kind of insurance policies and care for children policies, that she would have pursued them. I guess you would say, and in fairness, to back up a little bit, that she's tried to bring forth some policies that would help rule Alaska and people who need - for example, protection under the law in bush parts of Alaska.
GROSS: Let me ask another question about the Alaska Permanent Fund, and again, this is the fund in which a percentage of oil revenues are stored, and some of it stays in the fund is invested and is used by the state, and some of it is divided in checks to every men, women, and child who qualifies in Alaska. There's billions of billions of dollars in this fund.
Mr. CAREY: It was 40 billion the other day, then it went down to 30, and that's probably back up a little bit. But it is billions, there's no question.
GROSS: Yet Alaskans get more money per person from Washington than any other state, at least that was a case in 2005, according to the Tax Foundation. And so ear mark projects like, you know, the Bridge to Nowhere, and I know that bridge never got built, but the Palin administration kept the money for it and invested it in other projects.
I guess the question for taxpayers in other states is, if Alaskans have so much revenue, billions and billions of dollars in the Alaska Permanent Fund, why should taxpayers from other states, particularly other states, you know, that are in the hole because times haven't been as good and revenues haven't been big like that, why should they be paying for Alaska infrastructure projects? Is that a fair question to ask?
CAREY: Sure it is. And it's a heck of a racket, isn't it? That we can have no sales tax. We have no state property tax. Ee have no state income tax. We get, I think, this year, we're second behind Virginia, maybe it's for the last year, in federal dollars coming into Alaska. And that we expect this as our due.
Ted Stevens has made it clear. And how he was able to do this, by becoming that dominant figure of the Republican Party on the Appropriations Committee in Washington, D.C. And the viewers who are unhappy about this, and, of course, the Bridge to Nowhere really highlighted the problems and the issues, need to ask their own legislators, why do you let Alaska do that? And so far, the answer seems to be, because they can.
You can bet that Terry Gross hasn't asked that question about the New Orleans area, that taxpayers should ask why they should be paying multiplying billions of dollars for a city that couldn't build levees that worked. But maybe she would have – if John McCain had picked Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal instead of Palin.

1/08/2007 / Short Stories
I walk to my church office through a crisp wind. Its a long walk, nearly three miles, but I crave the clarity that is borne on the breeze. My shoes on the sidewalk mark out a prayer of four beats: LordIneedYouleft, right, left, right. It is the only prayer my spirit knows on this frosty morning.
Im not sure that Im doing what the Lord has called me to do. Im confident of His call, have never doubted my longing to introduce lonely and hurting people to my best Friend. But being a pastor seems to be hindering my mission; constant quibbles and controversies fill my hours and obscure my vision. Sometimes I strain even to see His face.
Arriving at the office, I see the light blinking on my answering machine and listen to the recorded messages.
Pastor, its Linda DeVries. You know I dont like to complain, but the music last Sunday was just too loud. I wish youd tell them to turn down those speakers, God doesnt need all that noise
Her voice continues for several minutes. She has a litany of complaints: the singers are off key, the drums unnecessary, the chorus repeated too many times. I send a prayer heavenward: Bless Linda DeVries, sweet Lord, with a moment of pure, unquenchable worship
A beep signals the beginning of the next message, a teenaged girls youthful inflections.
Pastor? Its Christy, from the worship team? I just found an awesome rocked-out version of Holy, Holy, Holy. You should hear the bass part! I know some of the old people have been dying to sing hymnswell, not dying, actuallybut this should make everyone happy, right? And also, can we have a light show in the background?
I close my eyes and try to imagine a heaven in which both Christy and Linda DeVries are singing the same praises to the Lamb.
Small noises outside my door tell me that Rona has arrived in the secretarys office. I open the door to greet her, and she hands me some papersprintouts of e-mails and pink memo slips. I receive them with a wince and return to my office, but not before briefly meeting her eyes. I think she winked at me.
Another silent prayer: Dear Lord, she winked at me. And were alone in the church today. Well, I cant deal with that right now. Give me strengthIll handle her later
I rest my head in my hands for a moment, reprising the prayer that brought me to my office. Lord, I need you
The stack of papers calls out to me.
Pastor, last Christmas the sanctuary decorations were way too gaudy. I think we should just go with just candles and greenery this year
Pastor, Im going to decorate for Christmas this week. Ive bought fifty more strings of colored lights, hope thats okay
Pastor, I caught two children running in the sanctuary yesterday. Something should be done
Pastor, I dont think you should read from that version of the Bible any more
Pastor, someone spilled grape juice on the communion cloth
Pastor, the leaves on the east lawn still havent been raked
Pastor, a light bulb is out in the ladies room
Pastor, the offerings were low this week
I bow my head. Is this what Youve called me to do, Lord? How can I bring new sheep into Your fold when Im constantly being asked to make tiny repairs to the fence? There is a knock on my door. Anddid Rona wink at me?
Somewhat hesitantly, I call out an invitation to enter.
Its not Rona, but Dennis Crakes, a teen who has been silently occupying a seat on the edges of our youth group meetings, arms crossed, eyes closed, occasionally snorting at the discussion.
Dennis has come to place his shattered life in the arms of the Savior.
Half an hour later, he leaves with a lightened spirita new creation.
There is silence in the outer officeRona has left. I decide to walk home for lunch. My shoes beat out a new prayer: Youaresogoodleft, right, left, right.
Arriving home, I kiss my wife. I feel like a new man, once again sure of my purpose.
She pulls slightly away from my embrace and searches my face. You had a good morning, didnt you?
I kiss her again. I did, sweetheart. I really did. And by the waydid you wink at me?

Internet users in the North East of England have the most nervous attitude towards the web, according to research that highlights the country's "digital divide".
Online engagement will soon replace social class as the most powerful determiner of economic success, damaging the career prospects of internet refuseniks, according to the social anthologist who analysed the survey. Nearly one-third (31 per cent) of in the North East are reluctant to use the internet for anything more than sending email and occasional browsing, higher than the national average of 23 per cent.

In trying to be wiser with finances, I'm trying to get rid of a car payment, and get into something in the $9k range so that I can pay cash.
I live in CO (Denver area), and am looking at WRXs in the 2003 - 2006 range.
It looks like I can either get something older, in the 90-110k mileage range, or 2005-2006 in the 150k mileage range. I'm trying to decide if I should shy away from a WRX with 150k miles?
I used to have a TDI and wouldn't worry about that kind of mileage at all, as long as the timing belt was up to date - but I don't know WRXs that well. I commute about 75 miles/day, and while I ride my motorcycle whenever I can, I still end up driving quite a bit. Am I walking into a money pit if I buy a WRX with 150k miles, or is the WRX going to be like other Subies, and run forever with proper maintenance?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So i'm driving on I-70 today going about 75 and i hear a loud smack, my car hops, and i look in the rearview mirror and see something black...i think it was a 18 wheeler tire that exploded and i ran over it being i was right next to one when it happened.
So i pull off the highway, look at the right front tire and the black plastic cover in my wheel well is gone. Apparent;y that was the black thing i saw in my mirror. I'm so pissed right now as some of the metal around the wheel got bent up.
My question is will anything in the well get hurt with me not having the black plastic cover in there until i can get a new one? and 2nd, doesn anyone know anyplace where i could get one other that a subie dealer? thanks a ton

The Best Sweeteners for Baking (Page 7)
5. Date Sugar: "Best Personality"
The Sub: Used 2/3 cup in place of each cup of sugar in the classic recipe.
The Verdict: #5. The ugly runt of our litter, these cookies retained their prebaking shape completely and came out of the oven looking like little blobs. While they "looked healthy," they tasted delicious. A bit more doughlike than a traditional cookie, these did not have a strong date flavor but some tasters noticed a figgy sweetness. If you want to try date sugar in place of regular sugar in a batch of cookies, you'll have to shape the cookie by hand if you want them to look more like a cookie than a blob of dough. This natural sweetener made it to our top 5 list because we loved the flavor, but don't expect to get a classic-looking result if you try using it in cookies at home.

Organizers arranged a promise garden and participants held pinwheel flowers to show support. Different colored flowers were representing a personal connection to the disease. The main purpose of the walk is to raise money, but it also brings people together who are affected by Alzheimer's.The Executive Director for the Maine Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, Laurie Trenholm, said "There's a really great aspect to the walk that allows people to connect to others with the disease and really get a sense of not being alone."Awareness walks for the disease were held all over the state, but Saturday's walk was the last one of the year. Organizers said the participants raised over $80,000.

Florida Baseball a Winner over Top-Ranked Florida State
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Sophomore Harrison Bader (Bronxville, N.Y.) snapped a 1-1 tie with an RBI triple in the sixth inning and junior Bobby Poyner (Wellington, Fla.) closed the contest with three perfect innings as Florida (14-7) downed No. 1 Florida State (17-3), 3-1, on Tuesday night in front of a season-high 5,657 fans at McKethan Stadium. It was the Gators' first triumph over a top-ranked team since a 6-3 decision over the Seminoles on April 10, 2012, in Tallahassee and head coach Kevin O'Sullivan's club has claimed eight of its last nine outings.
Sophomore righty Aaron Rhodes (Venice, Fla.) (2-0) limited the high-powered FSU offense to one run over three innings and totaled four strikeouts to earn the win, junior Josh Tobias (Greensboro, N.C.) opened the scoring with his first homer of the year in the third and junior Taylor Gushue (Boca Raton, Fla.) added an insurance run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth.
Although Florida State loaded the bases with none out in the third, sophomore starter Danny Young (Boca Raton, Fla.) kept the game scoreless by retiring sophomore DJ Stewart (foul pop up), redshirt senior Brett Knief (strikeout) and junior John Nogowski (grounder). Young tossed three scoreless frames, with six hits and two strikeouts.
After making a strong defensive play to end the top of the third, Tobias led off with a homer into the left-field bleachers to begin the scoring. It was his first dinger since May 11, 2013, against Auburn. Junior Jose Brizuela (3-for-4) later tied the game in the sixth with a one-out solo shot to right field off of Rhodes.
In the bottom of the frame, the Gators countered with a pair of runs on an RBI triple by Bader and a sacrifice fly by Gushue to seize a 3-1 advantage. Sophomore Richie Martin (Brandon, Fla.) started things off with a double into the right-field corner and was sacrificed to third by junior Casey Turgeon (Palm Harbor, Fla.). Junior Bryant Holtmann replaced senior starter Peter Miller (1-1, 5.1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 5 K) and surrendered a first-pitch three-bagger to right field to Bader that brought home Martin. Gushue then followed with his team-leading sixth sac fly to right field to plate Bader.
After yielding a leadoff single to junior Danny De La Calle (2-for-4) in the seventh, Rhodes was replaced by Poyner, who retired the final nine Seminoles to collect his first career save.

So for a couple of months now I have been saving up to purchase a new Springfield M1A, and I've been under the impression that these are very available and not hard to find at all. Recently I visited a local gun store and asked if they had anything or if they would be able to order it (much easier than getting it online or from a big box store like cabelas, etc) and they had explained to me that it's out of stock and would take quite some time to receive, the last new M1A that they had come in was for a customer and the wait time was close to 10 months. Does this sound unreal or realistic? I know there are plenty of used ones around at gun shows, etc, and I've seen a handful of new ones at gun shows as well but are these just "new old stock" rifles?
Any sort of speculation would be helpful, thanks guys.

Shop at gunbroker.com. You'll pay a transfer fee to your local dealer, but you'll find what you want. Consider the shipping and transfer fee the price you pay to get it in less than a week. Otherwise, enjoy the wait.

Got me one. LOVE it. Don't shoot it much....after I got it setup the way I wanted it. He's me shooting mine prone at the family range. I love this rifle....just awesome.
Availability is a bit sporadic out here. I snatched one up when it showed up on my local gun dealer's rack. I would probably go the gunbroker route myself given your situation.
Last January I ordered an M1A Scout Squad. It was on backorder for almost a year before I cancelled it, got a credit, and bought an ACOG for my AR.
Pretty happy with the ACOG ;)
I got lucky and found a Socom 16 in my local shop back in January, have wanted one for a long time. I had just bought a new revolver and couldn't really afford to buy the Socom, but this was the first time I'd seen one in person, and couldn't walk away. Anyway it came home with me.

Not to break any forum rules or thread jack, but this seems like an appropriate place to mention I'm trying to sell some M1A mags:
Walked in, bought it, walked out. Was prepared to visit the 6 or so local shops, but it was in the first shop I went into and felt sooooo good.
I see them somewhat regularly.
I maybe put 50rnds through it every six months or so.
I have seen a decent supply of M-1a's at small gun shops here in Okla. Not to many socoms but I don't care for those anyways. A M-1a will be more useful than the carbine as it can be a fine mid range target rifle.
I'm assuming the composite stock weighs less and may be more durable, but I've always liked the look and feel of the wood stocks myself.
Any insight?
Go with the walnut. Keep it in good shape with Linseed oil and it will always look good. Mine is walnut and I just love it. Don't worry about the weight as they are a heavy gun anyway. Walnut is an asset any day over plastic.

Well my new P250 came in today from Buds and I love the way this thing feels so aw some in the hand wow, and conceals great, my HK might be getting some shelf time, can't wait to get the new Sig baby to the range.
The P250 and I made to the range today, and I really like it. No problems at all, eat everything I throught at it. My HK on the other hand had a very bad bad many jams.
I've had mine (P-250) for about 4 months now, and I love it. I've not had any problems with it, and it shoots where I aim it. A great little 9mm.
Welcome !!!!!! I have had my P250 since April and i love it. it is my primary carry gun. I have put 500+ rounds through it, and it has not burped once. Good Choice, ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well i have my own data, I have a new hk p200sk 9mm with 100 rnds down the pipe paid $850.00 for, now as you all know i also have the new
P250 with 100 rnds down the pipe, paid $585.00. Well guess where the HK is!!!!!!!!!!!! Back to HK has major FTE FTF problems. HK insisted that I send it back to them. So as of today I would say sig is better gun.
I've been thinking about the P-250, but can't find one locally to check out. What interests me is the interchangeability of everything. I have a hard time finding a small gun that fits my big hand, with long trigger reach.
My question is:
What comes in the box with the P250, and what has to be purchased separately? Obviously, you would have to pay to change caliber or barrel length, but what about the grip and trigger options? Does a minimum purchase get you the extra grip inserts and trigger options? Does it come with extra magazines, of different lengths and capacity?
