Initially a term used to refer to self-taught computer enthusiasts who displayed a high degree of skill and knowledge. Often, these enthusiasts used their skills to discover weaknesses in programs and to suggest improvements to programs. The term has acquired a pejorative meaning as the media has adopted it to refer to people who use their skills to enter computer systems for malicious or criminal purposes. Hackers, themselves, maintain that the proper term for such individuals is cracker.
The physical components that make up a computer or system, such as disks, disk drives, monitors, keyboards, printers, boards, and chips.
Hoax virus
A false virus warning. Hoax viruses can be troublesome because they can tie up e-mail systems, they can diminish the credibility of organizations associated with them and they can undermine the confidence of computer and Internet users. Often a hoax warning is characterized by a message urging the recipient to forward the warning on to all his or her friends, families, colleagues, etc. No legitimate virus warning will include such directions.
Another name for a vulnerability or a weakness in a system that may allow unauthorized entrance or intrusion into the system.
A computer on a network. Also used to denote a computer that provides server functionality.
Abbreviation for HyperText Markup Language, the formatting language used to create Web pages.

The purpose of this research study is to see if subjects with Parkinson's disease who are experiencing motor fluctuations ("on" and "off" states) and dyskinesias (involuntary excessive movements) would benefit from a higher dose of Requip as compared to the maximum FDA approved dose of dopamine agonist drugs (including Requip, Mirapex, and Permax). Requip as used in this study is investigational, which means it has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at this dose level.

Last week I was wearing an NYU t-shirt at my daughter's high school field hockey game. It's my alma mater, and I love that this shirt has lasted me since my sophomore year of college. (I won't mention how many years ago that was.)
During half time a mom from the opposing team approached me. She asked if I had a kid at NYU, and when I told her I was a graduate, she said, "Can I ask you a question about health insurance? My daughter is going there in the fall, and the school is charging us $800 for university health insurance."
I can tell you that the health services at NYU were free to me–my parents did pay for the coverage, and offered a range of care. Once I shared this with this parent, who was unsure how her own health insurance would translate to New York City doctors or hospitals there, she replied, "OK, now I feel better about spending that money. It seems like money well spent."
That got me thinking about other kinds of insurance needs that college students may or may not have. So I came up with a list of 7 different insurances and tips for how they apply to a child in college.
1. Health Insurance. Let's start with the biggie and one that's on my mind, now that my daughter is a high school senior. I know that some time in the next 365 days we're going to have to get her own health insurance card. That way if she gets sick at school and needs to go to the hospital, she has proof of insurance.
However, with the health care reform law, I don't think we have to pay extra for university- or college-sponsored health insurance, as long as we can provide proof that our daughter has health insurance through us–usually a photocopy of the insurance card that you submit to the school. What I need to figure out is if she will still be able to use the same campus health services as students who paid for insurance through the school if we opt out of using their insurance in favor of our own. You should do a similar investigation for your own college students and their health insurance needs.
2. Dental Insurance. In my opinion there's no need to worry about dental insurance, since dental cleanings occur twice a year. And with college schedules, chances are your child will be home twice in the year–usually six months apart–and you can squeeze in a dental appointment then. What I would suggest looking into is whether or not the university where your son or daughter is studying has a dental school. When my husband was a graduate student at the University of Michigan, he could get dirt-cheap cleanings and other dental work done at the dental school–the dental students have to practice on someone! This could be a good fallback option for having dental work taking care of on campus without having to worry about dental insurance.
3. Auto Insurance. A recent Associated Press article on insuring college kids said that your auto insurance costs could go down if your child is attending college more than 100 miles away from where you live and isn't bringing a car to school with him or her. I'm guessing you benefit financially from this arrangement simply because your college student won't be driving at all during the semester, and therefore isn't at risk of a car accident or anything else that would involve auto insurance. If this scenario describes yours, be sure to touch base with your insurance company to see if you can get a discount now that the young driver is no longer using your car on a daily basis. Also, many companies offer "good student" discounts so let them know when your son or daughter makes dean's list!
4. Home Insurance. Your homeowner's insurance may cover the theft of or damage to any of the more expensive items that your child brings to college, such as a laptop computer or jewelry. You may also consider buying a separate renter's insurance policy in your child's name. These cost up to $200 per year. No matter how you handle home insurance, be sure to photograph and document what he or she takes to college so that upon returning for summer break, you know what's still there and what may have been lost, damaged, or stolen.
5. Travel Insurance. Ever since witnessing a sick passenger being airlifted from a cruise ship we were on many years ago, I have been a big believer in travel insurance, sometimes known as trip insurance. While you may think of these policies as for vacations only, they make a lot of sense if your student is going abroad for a semester or traveling somehow related to his or her studies.
Some travel insurance policies cover a trip that is curtailed due to illness or an accident. Others allow you to get reimbursed if you cancel before even leaving home. You may even be able to buy this kind of insurance through the college or university. Whichever office handles study abroad is the one where you should inquire first about travel insurance.
6. Life Insurance. No one expect to lose a child, but it happens. If you, the parents, have cosigned for expensive loans or maybe you're shouldering the weight of $50,000 a year for tuition, you need financial protection if something fatal happens. It sounds dark and disturbing to even consider taking out a life insurance policy for your child, but for about $100 a year, it could be a peace-of-mind investment.
7. Tuition Refund Insurance. I'd never heard of this kind of insurance until that same Associated Press article mentioned it. This insurance helps you recoup the cost of tuition, should your child get so ill that she can't finish school, or a parent dies and he needs to leave school for family reasons. Here's what FinAid.org, a financial aid website, had to say about tuition insurance:
Tuition refund insurance is generally not recommended for college students except when the student has a serious illness that may force the student to withdraw from school. However, tuition refund insurance plans may include a preexisting condition exclusion of 6 months to a year that can preclude coverage in such situations. Some plans will waive the preexisting condition exclusion after 6-12 months of coverage. Since most 17-20 year olds are healthy, tuition insurance is often not financially worthwhile, but does provide peace of mind.

When I came to Goucher as a freshman I already had an interest in Peace Studies. (Although I had no clear conception of what Peace Studies meant, it certainly sounded like a worthwhile pursuit.) Seble Dawit was my advisor from the get-go and she has been my most trusted resource as I have picked my way through the curriculum that would form my education. She has been especially helpful considering that I am part of the first graduating class of PS majors. I trusted Seble's judgment after my first semester. Despite my freshman status, she encouraged me to join Brian Francois' Peace Studies class that focuses on social justice theatre. I did. I am now of the opinion that Peace Studies students should all be versed in Augusto Boal-based social justice work. We got on our feet and used our bodies in innovative ways. We were brutally honest and deeply introspective. And we had a lot of fun creating a space in which to address human struggle. Looking back on it now, that class is kind of a metaphor for my wider PS education.
Now, I realize the "touchy-feely" tone of this description. Nonetheless, my peers in the PS program are some of the sharpest and best-read people I know (my age anyway). It's the nature of a liberal arts education that students are expected to know a little bit about a lot of things. I used to think that that was the point of Peace Studies too. But I think now that it's not about this or that piece of information so much as it is about developing the capacity to understand many things and to think critically about them. My education in Peace Studies has included the study of international human rights law, sociology, anthropology, history, international relations, political theory, and much more. But we (PS students) do not belong to schools of thought in the sense that scholars of philosophy or psychology often do. My professors have consistently encouraged me to invent dynamic solutions for seemingly intractable problems – to imagine new ways of perceiving conflict and injustice as living and pliant entanglements, rather than inherently self-perpetuating phenomena.

Sean Bell's fiancee pointed to the need in southeast Queens for community events and programs during an event to remember Bell over the weekend.
The daylong program began with a blessing before a collection of 50 motorcycles, cars and SUVs traveled from Baisley Pond Park to Sean Bell Way in South Jamaica, where the bridegroom was killed, and then to Nassau Knolls Cemetery, where he was buried.
"It means so much to my family, to my daughters. It's a beautiful thing for southeast Queens," said Nicole Paultre-Bell, who had been slated to wed Bell hours after he died.
After the "Ride 4 Justice," participants returned to Rockaway Boulevard and 150th Street, where the sixth annual event took place.
Paultre-Bell's organization, When It's Real, It's Forever, presented the festivities, which included face painting and blow-up slides, with help from sponsors.
"We couldn't do this without the community," she said.
But the area could benefit from more events and services, Paultre-Bell believes.
Organizations and programs, which once served South Jamaica and beyond, no longer exist or are struggling for funding, she said.
And Saturday's event also served to open dialogue about police relations.
"The kids, they have no idea about the tragedy behind the name Sean Bell," she said.
The mother of two said she sometimes has to explain how Bell died to children who were not born or too young at the time to remember.
"We want the kids to know that you can trust the police because when you need help, you should talk to a police officer, but we also want them to know we are working on building relationships with the police," Paultre-Bell said.

There's a point about two-thirds of the way through Too Close to Miss, John Perich's excellent debut novel,* right after the plot twist that sends the story into its final act, where Mara Cunningham (the novel's protagonist) drops a reference to The Untouchables. It's a fairly obvious reference–even if you haven't seen the movie, you'll recognize the line–and the way Perich casually puts it into Cunningham's words is a tribute to the easy style he brings throughout the novel. But, more importantly, that moment–a character in 2011 referencing a line from a 1987 movie about a Prohibition-era crime fighter–crystallizes the tension and play between eras that gives Too Close to Miss its sense of life.
(Note: I will try to avoid spoiling the plot; as with any mystery, Too Close to Miss is more enjoyable on first read if you don't know how it ends. I think that nothing I mention plot-wise happens in the second half of the book, but be warned.)
Too Close to Miss lives with a foot firmly planted in the noir, hardboiled detective fiction genre; Mara is a former member of the establishment on the outs (a former Beacon Hill reporter busted down to photographer because she got the wrong people upset). Like so many noir protagonists, she is ensnared by a relationship that she really shouldn't have gotten into in the first place. And, as we rapidly find out, what seems at first like a simple murder born of greed is part of a much bigger conspiracy.
However, recalling the noir genre so faithfully forces the reader to confront the fact that it is, attitudinally, a genre of the past. It's Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler. Even something from the '70s (like, say, Chinatown) is traditionally set in the 1930s. Add to this the fact that Mara, a young professional in the journalism business, is acutely aware that she works in an industry on the decline. The Boston Tribune, the fictional paper she works for, is on the path to failure, even if its employees don't understand that fact. The Tribune's best days are, in fact, in the noir era–the days of the morning and evening editions. The echoes of the past are present.
Too Close to Miss highlights this contrast of eras; in fact, the book starts with a cell phone call. But, crucially, modern technology is often of little use: the cell phone caller ID is blocked. A critical conversation takes place over a pay phone. A city government hasn't put records on paper. A camera doesn't work properly. Modern technology, in other words, is just another obstacle to be overcome by the modern noir hero. At the end of the day, nothing beats good old-fashioned gumshoe work. (And a flash drive.)
Too Close to Miss is a briskly-paced, thoroughly entertaining thriller that lives up to the heritage of the noir genre. It's ten pounds of style in a two-pound bag. It's also a book with one foot in the 1930s, and another foot just as solidly in the modern day. It comes with my high recommendation.
(Currently available as an e-book on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. At $0.99, it's a bargain.)
*Disclaimer: The author is a friend of mine, and I helped with some arcana of the legal system as he was writing the book. But, if I hadn't liked it, I could have just not written about it. Trust me–it's good.

Now we get to look forward to a no-name corporate sponsored bowl game! I hope it is finally time to rebuild Michigan's program and its reputation with a new coach. Obviously that will be the end of this web site (unless I change the team colors for the RRod's next job, coaching the South Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs). Check out this site for reviews of the best betting sites.
Hopefully that isn't good enough to warrant another season.
Penn State
Where is our defense? We seem to be able to score enough to win some tough games but we cannot afford to keep our offense on the field the whole game.
Second chance to prove ourselves and we only proved that we still do not have a competitive program. You can tell from the forum that Michigan fans are tired of watching this man disgrace our program. They are only left to the hope that this will be RRod's last season and the Michigan athletic department will make a good decision on his replacement.
Our first loss
Uconn, Umass, Bowling Green, and Indiana sounds like a tough schedule if we were playing basketball but fortunately for RRod they have football teams too. Unfortunately for RRod the basketball portion of our schedule is over and we met our first formidable match-up of the 2010 season.
#17 ranked Michigan State found the chink in our armor, as many would have guessed their solution was to stop Denard Robinson. Prior to the MSU game Robinson was averaging 181 rushing yard per game even if you include the Bowling Green game where he only had 5 carries. MSU was able to hold Robinson to less than half of the season average essentially halting UofM's offense. UofM was forced to rely on Robinsons passing abilities were he threw for 1 touchdown and 3 interceptions, tripling his season interceptions total.
Don't get me wrong I think Robinson is one of the most exciting players to watch in NCAA football but we need a more well-rounded offense and a defense that can get us on the right side of the turnover and time of possession ratios. The players RRod is recruiting will occasionally get us on SportCenter but they will not win us championships.
The problem with a circus act of an offense is the circus always leaves town before the end of the season and leaves the town with a big mess to clean up.
2016 Prediction
The 2016 FireRRod.com Prediction is 6-6 we're so confident that we claimed a free bet and staked some money on it using www.bettingoffers.org
I think 6-6 is fair given the relative ease of the schedule, I am however afraid it will give an impression of improvement. In all honestly I am torn, I want our boys to be successful and have a great year. Anyone who would play for Michigan in times like these definitely deserves some success for their loyalty but I do not want RRod to receive any credit for the turnaround. Good luck Michigan!
The 2010 schedule!
Who is scheduling our games? It's almost like RichRod has been set up to break .500 this year. Our out of conference schedule is a joke. Connecticut, Massachusetts, I didn't even know they had a football team.
For those of you on twitter you can now follow Rich Rod on Twitter.com Make sure you let him know what a great job he is doing:
Bill Martin, Rich Rod and UofM's future
Unfortunately Rich Rod will likely get at least one more year in Michigan. With the long overdue retirement of Bill Martin in September Martin will make RRod the next AD's problem. Firing RRod after only two seasons Martin would basically be admitting he made a mistake hiring RRod. We can only hope that the next AD will set the program straight and hire someone who knows Big Ten football. Personally I'd like to see someone like Les Miles or Jim Harbaugh.
To stop the emails, I am not saying I want those particular coaches. I just want a coach that knows Big Ten football and knows how to lead.
Bad Press
I am disgusted with all the bad press RRod has brought to Michigan. Michigan has had to levy self-imposed sanctions and a 2 year probation. WTF? Terrible record, no bowl games, bad press, 0-2 against OSU, players revolting… What does this man have to do to be fired?
Follow FireRRod.com on Facebook
Web Search results
Can you believe we are the #2 search result on Google, dogpile and Yahoo? Second only to RRod's profile on Wikipedia FireRRod.com has gained favor with the fans. What does that tell you? Many people out there are looking for a answers and opinions on the subject. Unfortunately for them they are directed here.
PLEASE help us improve our site, participate in the forum. Many fans have emailed us about how they love all the posts and crazy fans out there.
The Big Game
The loss to OSU does have an upside. A win against our rivals and a no-name bowl game would have almost certainly prolonged the Reign of RRod. Let the recovery begin. One more year of RRod and we'll see what our new AD will decide.
Our 2009 Season Prediction!
Last year the FireRRod.com prediction was for a 5-7 season. We made that prediction a month before the season began, Nostradamus has nothing on us!
Our players' futures are on the line.
Another thing to consider is our players. RichRod's offense is making them look worse than they really are. It is possibly impairing some of their chances to go to the pro's, or at the least lowering their value.
How appealing is it as a player to go to a school that will not be good for years. How much will a player want to go to a school with 5-7 and 3-9 records in the last 2 seasons? The only thing we have left to recruit with is our name. I know we will still have a decent freshman class for that reason alone, but I can't see us luring in those players with no allegiance to Michigan.
Great Video!
Funny as hell! The best Hitler spoof ever. You have to see it.

The word photograph comes from the Greek words phot, or light and
graphia, or writing. A real photograph is exposed with light on light
sensitive paper. That's right - light. Photons. Some of the smallest
particles in the universe.
In the case of digital photography, the "light" is formed by Light
contained in a Laser light or LED head that "floats" over a light
sensitive paper on a bed of warm air. The light exposure excites
chemicals on the photographic paper by spraying tiny diamond-shaped
patterns on the emulsion. These infinitesimally small diamonds overlap
five-fold which, mathematically, results in 425 diamond shapes per
square inch. It is this concentration of diamonds created from tiny
photons that gives a photograph its unique look, color and depth. Ink
doesn't come close.
rest is just science. After "exciting" the chemicals in the paper's
emulsion the paper moves through a warm RA4 chemical bath which
activates and seals the colors. Because the light exposure head
floats over the paper there is no machine vibration to degrade the

Real photographs still involve chemicals and light sensitive papers so,

time we change a roll of paper we recalibrate the machines so the
colors in a photograph today will match the colors in a photograph

they are! I will definitely be printing on the Kodak Endura in the

They've been good friends for years and Julia Roberts couldn't be happier that her handsome pal George Clooney finally got hitched.
The "Ocean's Eleven" babe wasn't able to make it to the blessed affair but she's been keeping up with the newlyweds ever since they said "I Do."
She's always a welcome sight to see and Julia Roberts looked gorgeous as she arrived on the set of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" last night (July 31).
All decked out in flirty black playsuit, the "Pretty Woman" stunner was in good spirits as she chatted with Fallon about all things Julia.
Bringing us his seventh installment of "Mean Tweets," Jimmy Kimmel invited some of today's hottest stars to read what gets written about them in the Twitterverse.
Showing support for their pals new film, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stepped out for the screening of "The Normal Heart" in New York City on Monday night (May 12).
They've been good friends for years so it's not surprising that Julia Roberts is over the moon about George Clooney's recent betrothal.
During her interview on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," the "Ocean's Eleven" babe proclaimed, "I think it is sublime!"
As two of the most respected women in Hollywood, Julia Roberts and Sally Field always seem to be on their best behavior.
But that all changed as the "Pretty Woman" hottie and the "Mrs. Doubtfire" dame teamed up for " Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Monday night (May 5).
Opening up for the first time about the death of her half-sister, Julia Roberts took time to chat with WSJ. Magazine in its May 2014 issue.
It's going to be one of the biggest made-for-TV movies of the year, and "The Normal Heart" just unveiled its first teaser trailer.

Great to be able to sit outside on the deck right by the river. Very pretty and relaxing. Only a short distance to St Joseph's with plenty to do. Loved this vacation house.
We loved how comfortable the home was. It was in a great location with restful river activity! The kitchen was well equipped and we loved the beach towels!!
Nothing is lacking in this beautiful home. We loved sitting on the decks and enjoying the river; it's so peaceful. Our granddaughters delighted in the toys on the second floor and made that family room into a wonderland all their own. Our adult children relaxed in the evening building 1000 piece puzzles. We were at the pool for an hour or two everyday. The pool is conveniently located just a few houses away so if the kids wanted something we just walked back to the house. This year we enjoyed the community park too. Everything you need for a relaxing vacation is supplied. We grilled, cooked in the kitchen, played ping pong in the garage, and loved having a washer and dryer available for laundry needs.
We explored breweries, vineyards, U-Pick fruit, and Fernwood Botanical Gardens in Niles. The kids loved the beach, the painted bugs downtown, the carousal, and the children's museum. Everyone loves Silver Beach Pizza. River's Edge Bar & Grill in Benton Harbor had great food and live music. There are so many things to do and places to visit in the area.
Our 3 generation family was never bored. The house was not crowded with 6 adults and 3 children. There are plenty of books, games, and movies to meet every interest. I wish my home was as well supplied as this house. Thank you Chris for another wonderful week.
This home had everything our 3 generations family needed. Our young granddaughters loved the toy, game, and movie selection. They spent lots of quiet time playing in the second floor family room with the many dollhouses, dolls and furniture. The river view is lovely; we loved having decks on both floors. Our first night we enjoyed listening to the live music from the Marina across the river. The children loved seeing the ducks and the boats. The house is so roomy. There was plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 children. Fully loaded does not even begin to describe all that is included. We were able to find everything we needed to prepare meals, head to the beach, or relax and enjoy family time. No detail was missed by Chris in making sure you have everything you need for a fantastic stay. The kitchen appliances are top notch and so is the grill. It is a short drive to downtown St. Joesph, area wineries, and family friendly locations like Sarett Nature Center in Benton Harbor. If you travel with kids include a visit to Sarett as well as the Carousel, and the children's museums. Having the pool was great because many days the beach was under a red flag warning for riptides so no one could go in the water. We are already planning our stay for next year.
This house was the perfect situation for our family. We had 5 adults and 3 children. Just enough room for everyone to be together but have some space as well. While it is not on the beach the riverside is great. Super easy to get to the beach and downtown. Beach parking pass provided. House was in great condition. Would stay here again if we are in the area!
St. Joseph, MI is located in the Southwest corner of the state. The town is situated on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan and bordered to the North by the St. Joseph River. The entire western coast of Michigan sustains some of the best beaches in the country. Being free of salt water and constant tidal pulls may qualify them as THE best beaches in the country. In this area you will find striking dunes at Grand Mere and Warren Dunes, endless shopping at the Lighthouse Place outlet mall in Michigan City, Cherry and apple picking during the late summer and fall, Casino gambling at Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo with one of the five largest gambling floors in the country (including Vegas) and the best gem of all, St Joe. The town boasts train service to Chicago, top notch ice cream and fudge shops (See Kilwins or South Bend Chocolate Co), Silver Beach and Silver Beach Amusement Park Museum, Rocky Gap, Jean Klock and Tiscornia beaches. So much to do, you'll need to come back again!

What: ITU together with sponsors BT,
Cisco, Lucent Technologies, Motorola, Nortel and Siemens is holding a one day event to mark a new
milestone in ITU's work on next-generation networks (NGN). The event will
present an overview of NGN work so far, details on future direction and some of
the business drivers for NGN. In addition to announcing this completion of work
on the Release 1 standards for NGN by ITU-T's Focus Group on Next-Generation
Networks (FGNGN), the event will communicate the next phase of NGN work to be
progressed under the banner of the NGN Global Standards Initiative (NGN-GSI).
Morning sessions will focus on technical aspects of the NGN work, while the
afternoon will be devoted to market/business drivers. Registration is required.
When: 18 November, 2005
Where: Hilton, Gatwick, London, UK
Why: Operators from around the globe are implementing NGN strategies and
plan to invest billions of dollars in the eventual rollout of new packet-based
networks. Their involvement in global standards stimulates innovation and
superior technology; enables interoperability allowing multi-vendor product
offering; and protects current and future investment.
The operators, systems vendors and governments that have driven this
standardization work see NGN as delivering substantial cost savings due to the
economies of scope inherent in a single converged network. They believe that
standards will facilitate an open market for systems, lowering costs and
allowing a mix and match approach to implementation, while also allowing
interoperability on a global scale. NGN will see consumers benefit from
innovative new services, greater control and personalisation, ease of migration
between services as well as offering continuity for existing services.
Who: The event is aimed at those involved in product planning and
service creation, whether from systems vendors or service providers. Typically
that will mean systems designers or product implementers from systems vendors
and those involved in service development from service providers.
Media/analysts wishing to attend please contact email@example.com.

The SCO Group lives.
Facing life or death, officers of the embattled Utah software company signed a deal Monday just before walking into a federal bankruptcy courtroom for a hearing on motions to liquidate it. Instead, they proposed selling off the company's Unix business to a London-based firm, while keeping its licensing claims that are part of high-profile lawsuits involving IBM, Novell and other companies.
The SCO Group also would retain its mobile application business, an area where it sees big potential growth.
"We signed that deal just minutes before the court hearing, and walked in and handed it to them, " said Darl McBride, CEO of Lindon-based SCO.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Gross did not hear arguments on motions to sell off SCO's assets and instead set a hearing for either July 16 or July 27 to consider SCO's sale plan.
Part of the proposed deal would sell SCO's Unix software products -- which run computers for businesses -- to Gulf Capital Partners LLC, a group formed by Stephen Norris of Stephen Norris & Co. Capital Partners and other investors. Norris had previously sought to buy SCO along with an unnamed Middle Eastern investor.
Under the new proposal, McBride remains as CEO, while President Jeff Hunsaker would move to direct the new company, along with a majority of SCO's 62 employees, said McBride. SCO would continue to pursue the lawsuits, he said.
IBM, Novell and Stephen Norris either declined to comment or did not return phone calls or e-mails seeking comment.
SCO's bankruptcy resulted from its high-profile lawsuit filed in 2003 against IBM in which it claimed that the computer giant had used Unix software codes as a basis to make improvements to the Linux operating system that made Linux a commercially viable competitor.
Novell, however, stepped in and claimed it, and not SCO, owned the copyrights for the Unix system, prompting SCO to sue to try to establish its ownership claim. But in 2007, a federal court judge in Utah ruled that Novell did own the copyrights in question. Its revenues declining, SCO filed for bankruptcy shortly after the ruling.
SCO has an appeal of the Novell ruling pending before the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver.
A bankruptcy trustee, IBM and Novell had filed motions asking the bankruptcy judge to liquidate SCO. They argued the company's financial position had continued to deteriorate as it failed in several attempts to reorganize.

Paris (AFP) March 16, 2007
Wheat harvested a month early, markets bursting with prematurely ripened produce, animals migrating too soon or not at all -- Europe's warmest winter on record has made nature run amok, experts across the continent have reported. With average temperatures in the three winter months of December through February more than 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above average in most European countries, the environment's biological clock has been thrown off kilter, they say.
In Italy, emerging from the mildest winter in more than two centuries according to Bologna's Institute for Atmospheric Science and Climate, vegetables not normally seen until later in the season -- green beans, asparagus, peas, artichokes -- are already so abundant that merchants can't sell them.
In The Netherlands, where winter wheat has been harvested a month earlier than normal, scientists worry that unseasonably high temperatures will increase the risk of grain plant viruses caused by aphids.
In neighboring Germany, half of barley crops in some regions have been hit with a weather-related blight of yellow dwarf disease, carried by fleas that do not normally survive the winter.
The Dutch nature observatory Natuurkalender has reported the "chaotic" disruption of normal butterfly lifecycles, with many species emerging from the cocoon far too early.
Woodpeckers and swallows have likewise arrived a month ahead of schedule, they observed.
In Austria, toads in the region of Styria began their spring migration to summer ponds at least 15 days early, catching environmentalists who last year shepherded thousands of the amphibians across motorways to safety off guard and unprepared.
In Sweden -- where temperatures at midweek stood at 10 C (50 F) compared to -10 C (14 F) at the same time last year -- and elsewhere in Scandinavia, melting snows and pollen in January have heralded an untimely spring.
This flurry of alarmed observations from across Europe arrive amid predictions by climatologists and weather forecasters that record warm weather is likely to continue through the spring, and perhaps into the summer as well.
"The average temperature for the three months of Spring (March, April, May) will be above normal," said French climatologist Michel Schneider, though he did not rule out the possibility of a cold snap or two.
Earlier in the year, climate change experts at Britain's Met Office forecast that 2007 would likely be the warmest on record around the world, breaking the record set in 1998. In France, looking further into the future, the state-run weather service predicts that the number of full-fledged summer heat waves -- similar to the one in 2003 that left 15,000 French people dead -- will increase tenfold starting in 2070.
The observations also coincides with a report released Thursday by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration stating that this winter was the warmest for the entire Northern Hemisphere of the planet since it began keeping records 128 years ago.
In Spain, high temperatures and strong winds have already fanned a series of fires around Barcelona in the northeast, and in Valencia further south.
And in Greece, agricultural authorities are already forecasting a difficult year due to drought in the bread-basket grain area of Thessaly.
A United Nations study last month said human activity was almost certain to blame for global warming and warned that the Earth's average surface temperature could rise between 1.1 and 6.4 degrees by 2100.
earlier related report
A record warm January worldwide pushed average temperatures to 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit (0.72 degrees Celsius) above normal for the 20th century, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.
It was the highest average temperature for the period since records began in 1880, the NOAA, said in its report released on Thursday.
A UN panel said last month that global warming was almost certainly caused by human activity and several governments and international bodies have sounded the alarm over the need to cut carbon emissions.
Europe has had its hottest winter on record and European experts say the spring and summer are also likely to be the warmest ever.
The El Nino phenomenon, a periodic warming of surface ocean waters in the eastern Pacific, contributed to the chart-busting combined global land and ocean surface temperature, the NOAA said.
But in February ocean temperatures in the central equatorial Pacific cooled more than 0.5 degrees F/0.3 degrees C and were near average for the month.
Nevertheless, the ocean-surface temperature in the period tied for second warmest on record, the agency said, just 0.1 degree Fahrenheit (0.06 degrees Celsius) cooler than the record established during the very strong El Nino episode of 1997-1998.
The NOAA scientists pointed to a steady rise in temperatures in recent decades.
During the past century, global surface temperatures have increased at a rate near 0.11 degrees F (0.06 degrees C) per decade.
"But the rate of increase has been three times larger since 1976, or 0.32 degrees F (0.18 degrees C) per decade, with some of the largest temperature increases occurring in the high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere," they said.
For the United States alone, the December 2006-February 2007 winter season had an overall temperature that was close to average, while December was the 11th warmest on record.
The UN's Intergovernment Panel on Climate Change said last month that human activity was almost certain to blame for global warming and warned that the Earth's average surface temperature could rise between 1.1 and 6.4 degrees C by 2100.
Fossil fuel pollution will raise temperatures this century, worsen floods, droughts and hurricanes, melt polar ice and damage the climate system for a thousand years to come, the UN's top panel on climate change said.
Experts say that if global warming trends continue, up to a third of the world's highest glaciers could melt away by 2050 and half will disappear by 2090.
The new sense of urgency comes with the Kyoto treaty, the world's first serious attempt to combat the problem, set to expire in 2012.
US President George W. Bush refused to adopt Kyoto, which excluded China, India and other big emerging economies.
The NOAA, an agency of the US Commerce Department, said it was working with its federal partners, more than 60 countries and the European Commission to develop a global monitoring network "that is as integrated as the planet it observes, predicts and protects."
Climatologists and weather forecasters across Europe have warned that record warm weather is likely to continue through the spring.
"The average temperature for the three months of spring (March, April, May) will be above normal," said French climatologist Michel Schneider, though he did not rule out the possibility of a cold snap or two.

Despite the fact that the hundreds of scientists and reviewers on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change announced February 2nd in Paris that global warming is "very likely" caused by human activity, governments and other policy-makers may still justify inaction because of naysayers like Danish weather scientist Henrik Svensmark, who maintains that global climate change can be attributed to the proportion of cosmic rays in our atmosphere.

Pamela Anderson Strips and Gets in to Bed with Lucky Dog
Pamela Anderson's dog's was?Was your Valentine's Day as sexy as
Pamela strips for a racy new Valentine's Day-theme PETA ad aimed at urging dog lovers to cuddle up with their pets this winter.
The actress/model, who famously starred in a sex tape with her ex-husband Tommy Lee, has a canine co-star in the artistic black and white video, titled La Chienne.
In the Deborah Anderson-directed short, Anderson strips off in front of a cute pooch named Monsieur Brando.
Accompanying the film is a new message from PETA bosses, which reads: "With much of the country (America) in a deep freeze, Pamela Anderson has gone all burlesque to warm things up in a new Peta video. The message? Keep your dogs indoors and cuddle up with all your loved ones."
Watch the video above and behold.

Emblematic of the growing pool of talented hospitality professionals hailing from Bali, is the increasing presence of young Balinese in key positions at leading hotels, both in Indonesia and abroad.In keeping with this trend, 35-year-old Ketut Gede Eka Kurniawan was recently appointed as Executive Chef at the Conrad Bali Resort & Spa.Born in Klungkung, "Eka" was destined from his earliest days to a life dedicated to the culinary arts. Hailing from a family where his Grandparents operated a popular local warung, or restaurant, and his parents were often called upon to prepare elaborate meals dedicated to God for local religious celebrations, Eka recalls cooking his first full-fledged meal at the tender age of 5. Equally fresh in his memory are adventurous outings to the local market with his Grandmother who taught him the intricacies of carefully selecting only the finest herbs, spices and main ingredients of the dishes on that day's menu.Clearly, the man is passionate about his food. A question regarding the first dish he ever cooked, caused the interview to digress into an extended discourse on the relative merits of various recipes for Lawar - a deceptively simple staple of the Balinese table.A graduate of Bali's Tourism Academy, he trained at a small hotel in Kuta and the former Bali Imperial Hotel before accepting a job at sea on a foreign cruise line.Now, 3 cruise lines; a stint with the Ritz Carlton in Dubai; a period as a General manager of a small Bali hotel; and visits to 75 countries later Eka has finally come home to Bali where his comprehensive knowledge of cooking has earned him the coveted role as Executive Chef at the Conrad Bali Resort and Spa.Widely regarded as home to three of Bali's best restaurants the Conrad Bali Resort's - Suku, 8 Degrees and Spice, Eka has stepped into the kitchen clogs left unoccupied with the departure of legendary chef Gary Rosen a man seen as raising the bar on local culinary excellence. Does this intimidate Eka? Hardly. Eka told Balidiscovery.com that Gary was an outstanding mentor who bequeathed to him his kitchen axioms of a) "keeping it simple;" b) "simple is elegant;" and c) "cooking is not only art, but a matter of meeting the client's expectations." Armed with these tenets and a personal culinary vision to explore via the Conrad's three outstanding food & beverage outlets, Eka is destined to leave his mark on the culinary history of Bali.Married with two children, Eka fills his busy schedule by keeping a steady hand on the Conrad's kitchen brigade and regularly leading his young children to local markets where he passes on Grandma's secrets on selecting only the freshest turmeric and other spices.When we asked Chef Eka for a parting gift for Balidiscovery.com's readers, he generously provided the following recipe:

Occupy Santa Rosa begins Organizing Drive
Occupy Santa Rosa launches a two-month Organizing Drive on August 21st to strengthen their efforts at building power for working people and the 99%.
Occupy Santa Rosa Announces "Occupy In Motion" Organizing Drive
Last year, Occupy Wall St. took the world by surprise; a spontaneous
popular uprising that demanded a new system for the 99%. Foreclosed
homes were defended, banks and ports were shut down, public spaces
occupied, thousands of people were radicalized, a national debate was
sparked, and strangers found each other in the democratic process that
is the lifeblood of this new movement. Now, nearly a year later,
Occupy Santa Rosa is attempting to harness the spontaneous energy of
this movement and channel it into a serious political force which will
win victories for working people and take power away from the 1%. This
is why we are launching "Occupy In Motion," a two-month organizing
drive to reach out to hundreds of new people and strengthen our
campaigns for poor and working people, and against corporate rule of
the government and economy.
Starting on August 21st, we will be recruiting volunteers and
supporters to reach out to the community, circulate petitions,
organize protests, research our issues, build relationships with our
allies, and much more. This will culminate in mid-October. We are
relying on our community to step up and answer the call that was put
forth by Occupy Wall St. last September: Will you be a volunteer for
"Occupy In Motion" and be a part of winning concrete victories for the
99% in 2012?
Whether you can donate an hour of your time a week, or ten hours, we
are interested in bringing in new faces that are committed to changing
this system. We want to know what skills you can bring to this
movement, and what interests you have in participating. To volunteer
for "Occupy In Motion," you can register here:
All volunteers will be invited to attend one of two Orientation
Sessions to get familiar with the Occupy movement and find out which
of our dozen Working Groups and Committees you would like to
participate in. These sessions will be: Tuesday, August 21st from
6-9pm at the Arlene Francis Center (99 W. Sixth St.). The second one
will be on Sunday, August 26th from 2-5pm at the Peace and Justice
Center, 467 Sebastopol Ave.
If you think you'd like to be a part of the Occupy In Motion
Organizing Drive, but not able to attend the Orientation Sessions,
please contact: Carl, 707-338-5318
We look forward to joining you and winning victories for working
people in 2012 and beyond.

4 out of 5
When Gen's mom drags the family to "Frontier Family Camp" for the summer, Gen is sure she'll hate it. Who wants to spend a summer milking cows and peeing in an outhouse, cut off from her friends and the whole post-1890 world? She can't stand the thought, so she sneaks her cell phone to Wisconsin and texts her best friends about life on the prairie. One of her friends uses the texts to start a blog about Gen's adventures, and just shares the blog with a few kids…
It's a delightful experience to be surprised by a book. Like Gen's mom, Frontier Family Camp kind of sounds like my dream summer. (I'll admit, I googled to see if anything like this really exists, but I failed to find it. Alas.) I spend so much time thinking and educating people about where our food comes from that texts like, "Making butter is the stupidest waste of time in the world, considering you can go buy butter in any grocery store in the world any day you want" disposed me crankily towards Gen, however appropriate an attitude that is for a modern teenager. I expected this to be a typical-teen-learns-about-herself-through-a-difficult-experience book with an unusual premise, and to some extent I was right.
It fortunately turned out to dig a bit deeper than that. Gen is honest with herself as she leaves camp about the things she's come to love about life on the prairie (open space, farm animals, fresh-baked bread and butter, her newfound closeness with her brother) and the things she will hate forever (outhouses, heavy wool dresses, 1890 laundry techniques). A near-tragedy at the end causes even the camp families most prone to frontier romanticizing to question what might be good about the 21st century (hospitals, medication, and helicopter airlifts). As someone also prone to romanticizing the "simpler times" when I could have spent all my days baking and preserving, I appreciated the reminder. (It also touches lightly but crucially on the issue of internet privacy, and how anything you put out there can quickly get far more "out there" than you intended.)
There are plenty of problems with this book, no doubt (They don't get any training before being tossed into a cabin and expected to cook for themselves? Really?), but it's funny and warmhearted, and left me thinking about how we can have more of the good of the 19th century without losing the good of the 21st.

Schrotter Storms To Strong Finish In Argentina

Schrotter Storms To Strong Finish In Argentina
Marcel Schrotter produced a sterling display to finish just outside the top ten, in 11th position at the Autodromo Termas de Rio Hondo in Northern Argentina, for the first ever Moto2 round at the track.
The German rider had a good start, keeping his 12th place on the starting grid in the first sector, but then dropped back to 20th position after contact with another rider during the opening lap. However, Schrotter remained focused and rode with grit, and began ascending up the field with a rapid and consistent pace during the following laps at the sun soaked Argentinian circuit. He moved up to 13th place before becoming involved in an exhilarating battle for 8th with six additional riders midway through the race. The Moto2 rider remained with the ferocious pack, until crossing the finish line in a hard fought ride to 11th in what was another encouraging performance by the 21 year old German and the Tech3 Racing Team at the new South American round.
Marcel Schrotter produced a sterling display to finish just outside the top ten, in 11th position at the Autodromo Termas de Rio Hondo in Northern Argentina, for the first ever Moto2 round at the track.
Ricky Cardusâ hopes of scoring his third set of consistent points for the Tech3 Racing Team, as he replaces Alex Mariñelarena during his recovery process, came to a bitter end when he unfortunately fell during the second lap in todayâs Moto2 race in Argentina. Having qualified in 18th, the Spanish rider once again undertook a solid start and moved up to 16th position in the first lap before crashing out uninjured, in what was a disappointing end to an otherwise positive weekend at the new 4.803 metre Circuito Termas de Rio Hondo.
Marcel Schrotter - Race : 11th - Championship : 14th - 12 Points :
âI am quite happy with the result, even if I wanted to finish the race inside the top ten. The beginning of the race was tough as it always is in Moto2. Every rider is really competitive, and even if I try to be aggressive, and brake as late as possible and protect my lines, there are still riders attempting to get past. Itâs difficult to stay out of the danger with the overtaking and after contact with another rider I lost numerous positions. But once everything had calmed down, passing was still not easy because of everybody being in the slipstream on the long straight, so we got to the corner a lot faster. Also there was no wind today and I had to modify all my braking points. Many riders made lots of mistakes, so I just tried to remain calm and get my rhythm, without losing the group and tried to come back. In the end, the race was not too bad, and the lap times were quite good so I am pleased to score another points finish. We need to work on the start and the first few laps. If we can improve there and keep our positions then I think we will have a better result in Jerez. â
Ricky Cardus - Race : DNF - Championship : 15th - 10 Points :
âI am disappointed with my performance today. I felt a little nervous and I was too keen to move up the field as quickly as I did. Starting at the rear of the field is never easy, and I tried my best to solve this by overtaking, but I pushed too hard and crashed out on lap two losing the rear of the bike. It was my own fault, I just wanted too much too quickly and I am sorry for the Tech3 Racing Team, because the aim was to be competitive for the whole weekend, and to continue like I did in free practice. Of course, I remain optimistic and look forward to racing at Jerez, where I am certain I will be able to get a good, points scoring result.â
Herveâs Poncharal :
âIt was a bitter sweet day for the Tech3 Racing Moto2 Team. We were expecting both of our riders to be fast. Ricky was really impressive in the free practice sessions, but unfortunately like in Texas, he seems to have a few difficulties coping with pressure. Unfortunately he wasnât able to transform his good work with the team into a promising qualifying position. But he still had the race to go and was just a bit too aggressive in the two opening laps and crashed, which is a great pity as we know he has the speed to finish inside the top ten. Alternatively, Marcel has been working really well throughout the weekend. He delivered a great performance and achieved 11th in a very strong group which was an exciting battle with Lowes, Torres, Cortese and Folger. I am very happy with what the Moto2 team is doing now. Marcel is taking it step by step, and after three races we are in a much better position than we thought we would be. For the next race we can go with a lot of optimism especially for the Spanish rider Ricky Cardus.â
