text: Most Christians think Jesus claimed to be God. Ask most of them who know their Bible, "Where does the Bible say Jesus claimed to be God?" and they'll likely answer, "He said it in John 10.30, 'I and the Father are one.'" But that is a far cry from saying, "I am God," or the like. One is struck with the thought, "Is that the best evidence Christians have for Jesus claiming to be God? If so, maybe he never made such a claim."This is a very important issue for Christians. Most assert that a pers … [Read more...]

Maryland's attorney general Doug Gansler "joined 22 other states this week in sending a letter to Google saying more needs to be done to protect consumers' privacy," reports the Baltimore Sun.
Gansler said Google officials met with state regulators Wednesday.
As Technically Baltimore reported in March, Maryland will receive $130,388 as part of a $7 million settlement with 37 states after it was discovered that Google was collecting computer passwords and e-mails from unsecured computer networks as it was building its Street View mapping service.

2nd Company A - Raleigh, Wake County
Company B - Wilson County
1st Company C - Carteret County
2nd Company C - Wayne County
Company D - Wayne County
1st Company E - Nash County
2nd Company E - Guilford County
Company F - Craven County
Company G - Jones County
Company H - Craven County

You can use prologue and epilogue to set up and tear down this directory, but you need something inside the job to set environment variables. We do something like this at OSC. Our TORQUE installs are configured with the flags --disable-shell-pipe --enable-shell-use-argv, which causes the job scripts to act more or less like login shells. Then we put something in the shell environment that detects if the shell is a job and sets variables accordingly. We set two variables: TMPDIR, which is a scratch directory local to each node; and PFSDIR, which is a shared scratch directory on a parallel file system (currently PVFS). Here's how we do that for sh/ksh/bash and csh/tcsh on our Linux clusters: ----- #!/bin/sh # /etc/profile.d/tmpdir.sh # If PBS_ENVIRONMENT exists and is "PBS_BATCH" or "PBS_INTERACTIVE", # set TMPDIR if [ -n "$PBS_ENVIRONMENT" ] then if [ "$PBS_ENVIRONMENT" = PBS_BATCH -o \ "$PBS_ENVIRONMENT" = PBS_INTERACTIVE ] then jobid=`echo $PBS_JOBID | sed 's/\..*//'` export TMPDIR=/tmp/pbstmp.$jobid export PFSDIR=/pvfs/pbsjobs/$jobid export ENVIRONMENT="BATCH" fi fi ----- #!/bin/csh # /etc/profile.d/tmpdir.csh # If PBS_ENVIRONMENT exists and is "PBS_BATCH" or "PBS_INTERACTIVE", # set TMPDIR if ( $?PBS_ENVIRONMENT ) then if ( "$PBS_ENVIRONMENT" == "PBS_BATCH" || \ "$PBS_ENVIRONMENT" == "PBS_INTERACTIVE") then setenv jobid `echo $PBS_JOBID | sed 's/\..*//'` setenv TMPDIR /tmp/pbstmp.$jobid setenv PFSDIR /pvfs/pbsjobs/$jobid setenv ENVIRONMENT BATCH endif endif ----- The directories themselves are created using {pro,epi}logue and {pro,epi}logue.parallel.

Plane Crashes At Cortland Airport; No Serious Injuries
CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) _ A single-engine plane has crashed at the Cortland County Airport, leaving its pilot shaken up but not seriously hurt.
Cortland County Sheriff's Lt. Todd Caufield tells The (Syracuse) Post-Standard (bit.ly/14TcglL) the 55-year-old pilot was able to get out of the plane with the help of bystanders following the crash around 3:20 p.m. Sunday. The pilot, whose name was not released, has been treated for non-life threatening injuries at a local hospital.
Airport manager Robert Buerkle says the pilot was ``shaken up, but he walked away.''
Authorities say when the plane hit the ground its landing gear collapsed and it flipped over. Caufield says, however, the landing gear wasn't the cause of the crash.
The Federal Aviation Authority and the sheriff's department are investigating. The airport remains open.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/1/2013 (1655 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A "high-risk offender" who once stabbed a pregnant woman in the neck is back in trouble with the law.
He's in custody in connection with bizarre allegations that a man — who claimed to be Gloria Vanderbilt — assaulted his mother at her Oak River home.
Following the attack, the mother told authorities that her son needs help.
"She believed that her son was in significant need of psychiatric care," Crown attorney Ron Toews told Brandon court on Monday as he outlined the following allegations.
On Dec. 16, Hamiota RCMP received a report that a woman had been assaulted by her son.
She said her 34-year-old son had grown angry after entering the Oak River home of his parents around 10:30 p.m.
"You da man, you da man," the son told his mother as she retreated to another room.
When the mother returned to grab her cellphone, her son took it away and cut his mom's wrist in the process.
He then told her that his name was Gloria Vanderbilt and that he and the Hells Angels now owned the house.
Vanderbilt is an American socialite, actress, designer and artist.
The man then kicked his mother in the leg, pulled her hair and slammed her head into a wall.
He told her that he was "the girl" and she "da man" and groped at her in an apparent bid to determine her gender.
The mother eventually managed to flee the home and called RCMP, who then arrested the son.
Police were also told that, sometime around Dec. 1, the son had threatened his parents' lives and remarked that he was thinking of ways to kill them.
He said he wasn't a male but a girl and at various points had referred to himself as Gloria Vanderbilt. Following his arrest, he'd also told police that he was not only Vanderbilt, but Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears.
The above allegations haven't been proven in court.
Kirk Dean Darroch is charged with assault and two counts of uttering threats.
Toews described Darroch as a "national high-risk offender."
Darroch, who appeared in custody, agreed to undergo a forensic assessment (a psychiatric evaluation).
The evaluation will determine whether he could be held criminally responsible for the allegations and whether he's fit to stand trial.
Darroch will remain in custody until his next court date on Feb. 11.
Toews cited public safety as he requested the evaluation which he said is needed before any possible bail hearing.
The Brandon Sun has detailed Darroch's violent history in past articles.
In July 2003, Darroch — high on prescription pills and crystal meth — stabbed a pregnant woman twice in the neck with a hunting knife. The woman was a stranger to Darroch who attacked her as she walked downtown along Ninth Street.
When he was arrested several hours later, Darroch was found with a backpack that contained sunglasses, rope, a wet T-shirt, a towel and a condom. Police referred to the collection as a "rape kit."
Darroch served a full five-year prison term for aggravated assault.
He didn't get parole because he was a high risk to reoffend and wouldn't take part in psychological counselling, assessment or treatment.
Shortly after his release from prison, Darroch attacked a member of the Manitoba High Risk Sex Offender Unit who was sent to check on him.
In June 2009, Darroch was sentenced to two months in jail for assaulting a peace officer and placed on two years probation.

Have HVAC Questions? Ask an HVAC Expert for Answers
Normally this is caused by dirt and debris built up between the fins of the coil on the underside. It causes the water to stop there and drip down instead of making it's way to the pan. You would need a wire brush or fin comb to get in there and really clean it out. You have to be careful not to bend these fins though or it will cause the airflow to be restricted and you will have even more problems.
Another thing that could cause this is if there isn't a PVC trap installed on the drain line just outside the furnace cabinet. It is a horse shoe looking thing made out of 3/4" pvc. If this wasn't installed on the air handler drain it would be leaking all the time and is odd if this is the cause that it just started doing it 5 years later.
The unit has a pvc trap on the condensate drain line just outside the air handler cabinet but when I remove an access cap I see very little liquid moving.
I will try to clean and rinse the fins of the coil again. I used a 3" paint brush previously to do both the top and underside and there was a lot of dirt removed, but apparently it did not cause enough dirt to be removed between the fins. Where would you suggest I can find a fin comb ?

By Charisse Jones and Kevin McCoy, USA TODAY
NEW YORK A gas explosion and fire that rocked an upscale Manhattan street Monday and caused a four-story building to collapse are being investigated as a possible suicide attempt by a man involved in a bitter divorce.
The blast and fire at a brownstone on East 62nd Street near Central Park killed no one but injured at least 15 people, including 10 firefighters.
Among the injured was Nicholas Bartha, 66, a doctor and an owner of the building. He was the only person believed to be inside at the time of the blast. Firefighters found Bartha, who also lived in the building, buried in 20 feet of rubble.
"They heard a voice" in the debris, New York Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta said. "They managed to dig down and get to him. ... He has very severe injuries."
Scoppetta said investigators are examining what triggered the explosion and fire. "We know there was a phone call or an e-mail message from someone inside the building to someone outside," Scoppetta said. "The content of the message makes it seem that it was a possible suicide attempt."
A police official, speaking anonymously because of the ongoing investigation, told the Associated Press that Bartha had to sell the brownstone because he and his wife were divorcing.
The wife's attorney recently notified police that Bartha had sent an e-mail indicating he was considering killing himself.
Investigators are examining whether a suicide attempt using gas may have led to the blast, the official said.
Lawyers Donna Bennick and Polly Passonneau, who represent Bartha's wife, Cordula, said in a written statement that "the emotional turmoil wrought by the parties' divorce proceedings, capped by this unspeakable tragedy is enough (to) bear. ... Ms. Bartha and her family are deeply saddened and terribly upset by today's occurrence."
Asked whether Nicholas Bartha could be charged if it is found that he caused the explosion, Barbara Thompson, spokeswoman for the Manhattan District Attorney's office said, "We are taking a look at the explosion, and I think we'll have to wait until the investigation is finished to go beyond that."
The brownstone was assessed in 2004 at $5 million, records show.
The explosion frightened neighbors and passersby who briefly feared the city might have been hit by terrorists. The blast came three days after police and the FBI said a plot to attack the tunnels beneath the Hudson River that connect New York and New Jersey had been thwarted.
Nicholas Bartha is an emergency room physician affiliated with Mount Vernon Hospital in Mount Vernon, N.Y.
Linda Gentile, a unit secretary at the hospital, said if Bartha had wanted to commit suicide, he could have obtained any medication.
"He would've known how to do it painlessly," she said. "Nobody believes it was a suicide. ... Being around him tells you he's not the type to do that."

They never learn. A University of North Alabama football player has been kicked off the team for tweeting a racist rant against President Obama Sunday night. Bradley Peterson was upset that NBC had pre-empted Sunday Night Football to air President Obama's speech at a vigil for the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
"Take that n****r off the TV, we wanna watch some football!" he wrote.
In response, athletic director Mark Linder, sent a tweet thanking users for bringing attention to the tweet. "@UNAAthletics does not condone. He is no longer a member of the team," he tweeted.
Sadly, Peterson wasn't the only football fan posting profane and racist messages, Mashable reports.
"Obama you stupid sand n****r get off my tv. Your just making the families hurt and miss their kids more and I want to watch football," was one of several posted.

"And more than anything, what I will be striving for over the next three and a half years is to see if that spirit that I saw in Boston and West, Texas, if we can institutionalize that, if we can create a framework where everybody is working together and moving this country forward."
Obama told the donors about driving to a memorial service in Boston with Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick shortly after the marathon bombing: "And we talked about that, in the midst of tragedy, the incredible strength and courage and resolve of the American people just comes out, and the neighborliness, and the sense of willing to support strangers and neighbors and friends during tough times."
He said he saw that "same spirit" in West, Texas, following the deadly explosion of a fertilizer plant.
"And part of what Deval and I talked about was what do we need to do to make sure that that same spirit is reflected in our politics and our government -- because it's there every day for people to see. It doesn't matter whether people are Democrats or Republicans or independents. If you go into schools, you go to Little League games, you talk to people at the workplace -- everybody has the same sense that we live in the greatest country on Earth, that we've gone through some tough times, but we're resilient and we can overcome whatever challenges are thrown at us.
"And there's a desire to get outside of the constant squabbling and bickering and positioning and gamesmanship, and get to the business of figuring out how do we make sure that the next generation does better than this generation.
"And as I think about my second term, and people have asked me, what's different about your second term -- well, other than me being grayer -- (laughter) -- and my girls being taller, the main thing about a second term is, A, I don't have to run for office again; but, B, you also start just thinking about history, and you start thinking about -- in longer sweeps of time, and you start saying to yourself that the three and a half years that I've got is not a lot, and so I've got to make sure that I use everything I've got to make as much of a difference as I can."
'My intentions are to govern'
Obama plugged his agenda -- education and infrastructure reform, combating climate change -- and then thanked the donors for supporting the Democrat Party:
"I want everybody to understand that my intentions over the next three and a half years are to govern, because I don't have another race left. If we've got folks on the other side who are prepared to cooperate, that is great and we are ready to go. On the other hand, if there are folks who are more interested in winning elections than they are thinking about the next generation, then I want to make sure that there are consequences to that."
He didn't explain what those "consequences" might be, but his focus since beginning his second term has been 2014, when he hopes to see a Democrat-controlled House and Senate emerge from the mid-term election.

My town just recently got over run by tough guys u kno thugs who want to own the town.. yea what ever that shit means. i used to be able to walk out of my house in shorts and no shirt or shoes and go to 711 to get some bawls and walk back home which is like 10 blocks or so. anyways one night me and my boys were out to get some food maybe catch a couple of fills and we start getting followed. i didnt think anything of it because i consider my neighbor hood safe. one of the safest in queens (CP). these kids follow us to 711 and they wait out side and then i knew what was up. fucking the only thing i never wanted taken away from me was taken away. my fucking ipod and we woulda fought because my friend is a crazy motha fucker but when you got 2 burner pointed at u ur just like chill and give them your shit. they got like 6 cans, digi camera, ipod, fucking they took my boys phone but they gave it back because it was shit. but that shit still sucked. too bad for the "leader" of the kidz that we recognized that faggot and we knew where he hung out and shit. i dont think he'll be out for too much longer considering he got a bat to the face. i still didnt get my shit back so it still bothers me to this day.

Senior Seminar & SIFE: Conserving Water On Campus
Communication majors enrolled in senior seminar are teaming up with Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) to promote sustainability on The University of Scranton's campus. One project is focusing on conserving water in Gannon, Lavis, and McCormick Halls, more commonly known as "GLM." The "Shower Challenge" was created with hopes of reducing the amount of water being used in the dorm that houses more than 200 female students.
The Shower Challenge started on Tuesday, Nov. 8, and will run through Wednesday, Nov. 23. Many of the girls signed pledges in which they promised to take shorter showers over the two-week challenge.
On Sunday, Nov. 6, senior seminar students made a presentation to the residents of GLM to inform them of the challenge. A baseline test was taken the week prior to the start of the Shower Challenge to find the average amount of water that is being used. Timers, charts and flyers were placed in all GLM bathrooms, encouraging residents to take showers that are five minutes or less.
Actress Jenifer Aniston takes "Navy Showers" as a way of conserving water in her daily life. "You get in, get wet, turn off the water, get soap-y and shampoo-y, then turn the water back on and rinse off," she said. "It saves a LOT of water. I never take more than three minutes, tops. I even brush my teeth while I shower." Seniors used Aniston as an example to show that the Shower Challenge is possible.
Hopefully, the Shower Challenge initiative will resonate with students and become a routine for them as conserving water is very important. Even though 75% of the world is composed of water, less than 2% is fresh water. Water is thought to be a renewable resource; however, with the world population reaching seven billion, nothing is certain.
SIFE is a student organization on campus that creates projects to benefit the community, on and off campus. SIFE's mission is to bring together the top leaders of today and tomorrow, to create a better, more sustainable world through the positive power of business.
Please do your part in conserving water. Whether it be taking a shorter shower or turning off the water when you brush your teeth, any little bit will help. For daily water conservation facts, follow the Shower Challenge on Twitter @ShowerChallenge. Every drop counts!

Aleph 3 standby mode, possible turn off
I noticed that turned off Aleph 3 has charged capacitors, only on one side in this case of propably not properly functioning one (about half power consumption, bit of distorted sound when turned on), so I think it is maybe active somewhat. I want to ask if its possible to turn it off and if it can be in the turned off state.
Thank you for your response.
which , what , how
pics , please , and more info
What more info?
pictures , so you don't need to put efforts in explaining is your Aleph DIY or original,does it have bleeders on caps , how much capacitance etc.
It is original Aleph, capacitors are changed to Vishay 12000 hours, 85 C, some of the originals were a bit bulged. Capacitance is the same 8x22000uf. Read something somewere about the bleeders but dont know what it is. When i was changing capacitors, the IRF 9610 stopped working, now i found out that one was changed, i measured the previous one and seemed ok so now the IRF 9610 are original. The four IRFD 9110 were changed too. Tried to measure only with diode tester but the values of the originals varied a bit so i didnt changed them.
put 2K2/3W resistors across each cap bank (both positive and negative) ; those are bleeders
regarding rest of your first post , I'm not getting what and when/how long is distorted
I posted 2 posts so i tried to reference it to second post. Aleph has about half power consuption as normal, when music is played the sound is a bit distorted. Also found out that one of the 3W resistors on the bottom of one pcb was a bit released so i soldered it.
both channels distorted ?
any hum or buzz ?
are you able to open it and do some strategic measurements ?
best way is , if I post schematic here , that you write measured values directly on schematic
in MS Paint or any similar prog
Yes, I think both. I think the hum is a little, as was previously. One of the reasons i tried to change capacitors, but i think later the hum remained still. I have it opened now, schematic is in the service manual, but some simplified or better to understand schematic would be maybe good.
1 Attachment(s)
there is no simpler schematic than in SM
download this , print and study few days ;it's best if you can understand what's what .
for start - check PSU voltages

Despite threats of a mass defection of gang and narcotics officers, the Los Angeles Police Commission on Thursday unanimously approved an unprecedented requirement forcing cops from those critical crime-fighting units to provide details of their finances.
All five members of the civilian commission struck an almost apologetic tone after passing the rule, calling it the last hurdle in complying with a costly federal consent decree imposed after the Rampart corruption scandal exposed a pattern of police abuse.
"It is not a sign of a lack of confidence in sworn officers but rather of compliance with the consent decree," commission President Anthony Pacheco said. "This is just one mechanism in the arsenal to ferret out any wrongdoing."
But the powerful Los Angeles Police Protective League immediately filed a lawsuit Thursday to block the rule that would affect about 500 officers, charging that it violates union members' collective-bargaining rights and invades officers' privacy.
Union officials contend that the far-reaching rule would lead to an exodus of officers from gang and drug units, with seasoned officers requesting transfers rather than submit to the financial reporting.
And, they said, digging through financial records will not uncover crooked cops.
"These financial disclosure requirements are a disaster for the city of Los Angeles and for its experienced and dedicated police officers," said Tim Sands, president of the police union representing about 9,500 officers.
"Based on our interviews with officers out there, prior to being served with financial disclosure, they will be walking.
"I am disappointed. I did not want to go down this road."
Dozens threaten to leave
Earlier this week, dozens of officers threatened to leave their units and during a more than three-hour commission meeting about a dozen narcotics officers sat in the audience wearing buttons with a red slash through the words "financial disclosure."
Kenneth Bryant, a supervisor in the department's Narcotics Division, estimates that at least 90percent of the unit's 200 officers would leave if the rule is imposed.
The rule is set to be phased in over two years, with all gang and narcotics officers ranked lieutenant or lower required to reveal their properties, past-due credit-card debts, outside income, stocks, bonds and checking account information.
Officers already in the units would not have to submit their private information for two years. But new ones would be forced to show their records within 10 days of starting.
But union officials said that with the LAPD's poor record-keeping, the personnel files could easily slip into the wrong hands or be obtained in court proceedings.
Commission members countered that less stringent, alternative plans previously have been rejected by U.S. District Judge Gary Feess, who oversees the consent decree and will ultimately decide whether to lift it in June 2009.
"I cannot look the officers in the eye and tell them that I think that financial disclosure will do anything to improve the Los Angeles Police Department except to get us beyond the consent decree," Commissioner Alan Skobin said.
"I hold no illusions that this financial disclosure would in any way identify or expose what I believe are very rare instances of corruption. ... Quite frankly, I believe it will not."
Financial disclosure is the last of dozens of consent-decree reforms intended to identify rogue and potential problem officers who deal with large amounts of cash, drugs and guns.
The mandated reforms arose out of the Rampart scandal of the late 1990s in which several gang officers were implicated in framing and beating suspects.
LAPD Chief William Bratton, who was out of town Thursday, has made lifting the decree a top priority for his administration. A former consent-decree monitor, he has expressed sympathy with already heavily scrutinized gang and narcotics officers.
"The goal is to achieve full compliance with the consent decree, so we do believe this is the last significant piece we need to put into place to make it happen," said Assistant Chief Sharon Papa, noting that the department plans to destroy individual police records two years after their service.
Vote may be overturned
Still, the plan drew criticism from the City Council.
Shortly after the meeting, Councilman Jack Weiss announced plans to bring financial disclosure before the council in January, when a majority vote could overturn the commission's decision.
"This proposal will do very little to root out bad cops but will do an awful lot of harm in demoralizing good cops," said Weiss, head of the council's Public Safety Committee.
"You have to worry about the impact of something like this on recruitment."
The LAPD says the two-year grace period would allow it time to quell any exodus by placing any officers seeking a transfer into other units and easing new officers into gang or drug details.
"We don't know yet how many officers are going to request transfers. There's a lot of discussion, there's a lot of debate, there's a lot of speculation," Papa said.
"It will be a very thoughtful process and it would not affect public safety."

2013 Gran coupe USA build your own not correct
hello everyone.
i am planning on leasing the new gran coupe but having hard time in the configurator at bmwusa.com. for example 2013 640i gran coupe nappa leather option requires $3000 leather instrument pannel and another $3000 for nappa leather total $6k but on the other hand FULL merino leather option is only $5000 as a stand alone and makes no sence to get nappa.
2013 6 series coupes come with available soft close doors and 2013 gran coupe have no such option.
It doesn't make much sense but that seems to be correct on both counts.

Who Is Your Favorite TV Chef
After a lot of trial and error, I am getting better at grilling foods other than burgers, hot dogs etc. Like most, I get a lot of my backyard grill ideas from t.v. My favorite of all the t.v. cooks is Steven Raichlen from PBS Barbecue U. I wouldn't mind if Rachel Ray stopped by either.
With grilling season now in full swing, he's topping a FoodNetwork.com poll of celebrity chefs featured on the channel who people would most want at their barbecue. Flay's getting the nod from 43-percent, which is nearly twice as many as the second place Guy Fieri. Twenty-seven-percent say they'd like to have Fieri manning their grill this summer. Eighteen-percent would welcome some grilling assistance from Patrick and Gina Neely of "Down Home with the Neelys." Twelve-percent would like to get some grilling tips from "Good Eats" creator and "Iron Chef America" commentator Alton Brown.

Dylan & Emma's Stop Motion Wedding Invite
This is such a cool idea for an invite. Emma-Jane Harbour and her husband Dylan treated their guests to this special video invitation. They had the pictures taken by photographer Bruce Mardon from Lamplight Photography, and the creative couple did the art direction themselves. Instead of a printed invite they had a wedding website with this quirky little video, along with all the other information about the wedding.

The extruded aluminum version of the RAM Tough-Track can be drilled to any flat surface and is designed for use with #8 screws for easy installation – hardware not included.

text: In Don McKellar's Last Night, the world will end at midnight. The radio counts down the 500 best songs of all time, a dedicated gas-utility employee (David Cronenberg) is making calls to thank his company's many customers, a family partakes in a final Christmas dinner (never mind the calendar), and a lonely widower (played by McKellar) just wants to be left alone. Best known for appearing in Exotica and co-writing The Red Violin and 32 Short Films About Glenn Gould, McKellar puts the emphasis on reflection rather than destruction. Throngs run wild in the street as the unexplained cataclysm draws nearer, but the writer-director has a greater interest in those left thinking about what it all means. It's a marvelous setup for a movie that doesn't quite capitalize on it. Despite wonderful touches throughout (Cronenberg uses a ruler to neatly cross out each entry on his list) and a solid cast that includes Geneviève Bujold, Sandra Oh (Arli$$), and Sarah Polley, Last Night consistently feels overcrowded and underdeveloped. Plenty of characters are around to ponder the end, but none seem to think about it all that deeply. That said, it's difficult not to be swept up by McKellar's dry, wonderfully realized fatalistic vision, as well as the efficiency with which he moves his film toward its inevitable conclusion, a final scene that's beautifully, cornily hopeful, hopeless, and true.

Facebook Bug Bounty
In the middle of January of 2014, I submitted a bug to Facebook through its bug bounty program.
The bug was effectively a Skype account email disclosure. You would find somebodies Skype name, add them on Skype(they didn't have to accept you), and then login to Facebook with your Skype.
Here's a look at how it worked exactly:
In Facebook's "Find Friends" feature, you can login to your Yahoo,Outlook,Skype, and other accounts to add people into your contacts list on facebook(and then in turn add them, I guess).
|The feature in question
By logging into your skype account on the feature, and pressing "Find Friends", you were submitted to the next page.
The prompt "Would you like to send friend invites to all of your imported contacts?" came up, which you would either submit no, or yes.(No was obviously suggested)
Then it would show the names, and skype names of the imported people, asking if you want to "Send Invites", or "Skip". Skip was also suggested.
We'd then be redirected back to the original "Find Friends" page.
Then, loading the page https://www.facebook.com/invite_history.php , in the sub-section "Contacts Imported (not yet invited)"...
(Note: It actually displayed full emails, not just partial)
So I instantly emailed Facebook with the information.
After a back-and-forth about the bug, I was told to wait awhile for it to be fixed.
And then finally, I receive this email..
And, was I surprised.
I didn't consider this a massive bug and expected to get the minimum reward of $500.
Well, I guess that's it.

We have tried pinging First Niagara Bank website using our server and the website returned the above results. If firstniagara.com is down for us too there is nothing you can do except waiting. Probably the server is overloaded, down or unreachable because of a network problem, outage or a website maintenance is in progress...
If the site is UP but you cant access the page, try one of the below solutions:
Browser Related Problems
Force a full refresh for the site. This can be achieved by pressing CTRL + F5 keys at the same time on your favourite browser (Firefox, Chrome, Explorer, etc.)
Clear the temporary cache and cookies on your browser to make sure that you have the most recent version of the web page. For instructions choose your browser :
Fix DNS Problems
A Domain Name System (DNS) allows a site IP address (192.168.x.x) to be identified with words (*.com) in order to be remembered more easily, like a phonebook for websites. This service is usually provided by your ISP.
Clear your local DNS cache to make sure that you grab the most recent cache that your ISP has. For Windows - (Start > Command Prompt > type "ipconfig /flushdns" and hit enter). For details choose your operating system :
If you can access a website at office or from a 3G network yet it's not working on your computer, it is a good idea to use an alternative DNS service other than your ISPs. OpenDNS or Google Public DNS are both excellent and free public DNS services.
Check our help page for step-by-step instructions on how to change your DNS.
Android App access is down
I can't log in to my First Niagara Account... a message comes up about a problem with their security certificate
Can not get into my accounts, it lets me login, but I am unable to transfer funds, keeps giving me an error message.
Okay I just got off the phone with them. They were having system errors so they had to take the online banking down. They hope to have it up earlier this afternoon.
Yes, they have been down all morning. I'm on hold with customer service. I have been on hold for quite a while.
A lot of people having withdraws from 12/3/2012 that are being withdrawn again today. Bank withdrew $177 worth of charges that I made last year! Came out again last night.
Appears that the online banking is down with the claim that it is for maintenance. The website is up but when you try to log onto your account you get the message. The Iphone app also appears to be having a problem connecting.
I can't get on either. There was no warning about it, or even a notice on the site.
I think it's odd that there was no warning of maintenance..
Service Notice:
First Niagara Online Banking is currently unavailable due to maintenance updates. If you need assistance during this time, please call our Customer Contact Center

About us
The IDRN has put together a report summarising our activity and output to date, which has initially been sent to our funder, the Department of Health. Click below for the report, published January 2009
Infectious Disease Research Network-
A summary of activity and outcomes
Infections are an important and growing concern for many clinical specialties across the NHS. High quality infectious disease research often requires effective multidisciplinary collaborations involving clinicians in several centres, laboratory scientists, epidemiologists, economists, mathematical modellers and others. The Infectious Disease Research Network (IDRN) aims to promote such collaborations, provide multidisciplinary training opportunities, and act as a forum for encouraging high quality infectious disease research. Our focus is on UK-based research, although we welcome international members and collaborators.
The London IDRN was established in 2002, and refunded in 2006 to engage with researchers nationally. The Department of Health have now extended our funding until 2012.
Amongst our activities have been the organisation of research strategy workshops and training events, the designing and hosting study webpages and surveys, the comprehensive funding and training bulletins,and the online researchers database. The IDRN has had an input into infectious disease research strategy, and has provided academic and administrative support for grants and fellowships. We've also provide support for small groups of researchers to meet (e.g. co-ordinating diaries, booking and paying for the meeting room, taking minutes etc).
We have been involved in targetting many different topics area, including both broad and specific subjects. Examples include: -
- Acinetobacter
- Antibiotic prescribing
- Antimicrobial resistance and healthcare-associated infection
- Antivirals
- Bacteriology
- Behavioural sciences
- Bioterrorism
- Decontamination
- Diagnostics
- Extended-spectrum ß-lactamases
- Food safety
- Gastrointestinal infection
GIS and mapping
- Health Protection
- Health Survey for England
- Hepatitis
- Immunology
- Infection control
- Influenza
- Lymphocyte kinetics
- Measles, Mumps & Rubella
- Molecular Microbiology
- Mycoses
- Outbreaks
- Prison health
- Probiotics
- Research governance
- Research methodology
- Scabies
- Sequencing
- Sexually transmitted infections
- Staphylococcal infection
- Tuberculosis
- Zoonoses

Liberal actress Maggie Gyllenhaal talked to Time magazine for the August 18 issue and complained about Barack Obama. After writer Belinda Luscombe noted that "you've said President Obama has broken your heart," the actress derided, "I really believed in him, and I'm not sure what he believes in anymore."
Asked why, she added, "The way he's handled the NSA stuff...I hope for a leader who will stand up and be unpopular." Offered an opportunity to take a position on the Israel/Gaza conflict (one that could be unpopular), Gyllenhall dodged, "What I've been doing is trying to read as much as I can and to think and feel each day what my position is." The Time journalist chided, "You don't worry that, as Desmond Tutu says, the neutral have chosen the side of the oppressor?"
The conversation then moved to feminism and abortion:
Why do you think actresses younger than you decline to call themselves feminists?
I don't understand why you wouldn't call yourself a feminist. But I sometimes take issue with the kind of old-school feminism that cuts out the complicated gray areas. I believe every woman has the right to have an abortion. But sometimes the style in which that message is put out there, I have a hard time with.
Gyllenhaal complained, "The ways in which I feel there's an inequality are subtler. For example, if I don't agree with something that a director suggests on a job, or if I have my own ideas, I feel like I'm considered difficult as opposed to an exciting collaborator.
