From Doug
Dear Dawgman: I love this site. What role do you see Nate Robinson playing, if any for the Husky hoops team? Is Tim Galloway going to see important time for the Dawgs this fall with the wealth of talent the Huskies have at linebacker? Keep up the good work.
A: I see Nate as a kick return specialist and a slot receiver. If Charles Frederick does return this fall without a redshirt on, Nate may be moved to corner. Either position would suit him fine, and he is a major threat on kickoff returns. Thanks for the note.
From Big Al
Dear Dawgman:
1) What is up with Marquis Cooper ... I haven't heard anything about him this spring.
2) Do you think B.Myers will move D.Dicks out of the center position. Because if he stays there, he won't start until his senior year?
3) What is up with Dan McCourtie? Everyone is talking about lack of depth @Fullback. I thought this guy was the real-deal?
A: Cooper had shoulder surgery and sat out spring to heal up. He'll be fine by August, but he'll be pretty skinny. Luckily his game is all about speed (4.40 in the 40), so he'll be a fine WIL linebacker along with Joseph Lobendahn. I think Dan Dicks will play both center and guard, as Brad Vanneman gets more reps under his belt at center. There's some nice versatility there. Dan McCourtie is still just a redshirt freshman, so he has a lot of time to develop. He's not there yet and is currently well behind Zach Tuiasosopo and Adam Seery on the depth chart.
From Gary Broughton
Dear Dawgman:
I enjoyed getting to know you some this spring. With the extensive amount of injuries this spring, are you concerned about the development of the team, and specifically the defense? It seems that this team is spending so much time trying to get healthy that growth is being stunted. Do you expect the team to be healthier and improved for the season? I can't ever remember a Husky team with a run of injuries like this.
A: I am concerned about the secondary, yes. Missing three of your starters during the spring can affect chemistry on the field. However, the bright side of that was that a lot of younger players got reps and took advantage of them. Evan Benjamin and James Sims in particular looked good. The team should be nearly 100% healthy in the fall. A big key will be CB Derrick Johnson's foot and how well he recovers from workouts/practices. He still experienced soreness this spring, but he is on track to be OK by fall. DE Kai Ellis is another concern that we won't know about until August in terms of health. Everyone else should be OK though. Jimmy Newell will be healthy for the first time in two years, which will help the secondary immensely.
From BriskyDLB
Dear Dawgman:
Why no article on the mat drill times [40 etc] and bench press wts like last year?? are the times and wts not as good?? or are the coaches keeping things under wraps???
A: We use those marks when describing a player if they are going on record, or if a coach goes on record. Other than that, we didn't share that info this year. The coaches would rather have that stuff under wraps, as you mentioned, so we made a conscious effort to only reveal those times and marks that players and/or coaches referred to.
From Dawgfan in Sacramento
Dear Dawgman:
Great site! Gracias my friend. I must have missed something. Can you please explain why Francisco Tipoti shows on the Spring Roster, but does not appear on the 2-deeps. I was convinced that he would come in and at least compete for a spot.
A: Cisco wasn't ready for Pac-10 football in April. He is running with the third-team right now and wasn't able to crack the two-deeps. Hopefully he'll spend the next four months getting in better shape and increasing his strength. He is talented and big enough to be a solid Pac-10 tackle.
From B4A
Dear Dawgman:
The Huskies will have the most potent offense this year in the PAC-10. The next five games on the DAWGS schedule following Michigan are at home and against weak teams - so Michigan will be a good barometer of the team's strength. I know Michigan will have a solid offense but haven't heard anything about the "D". Are they rebuilding? Is this game likely a shoot out?
A: Washington does have the potential to put a lot of points on the scoreboard if their running game comes together. The offensive line has the potential to be great, they just need to be more consistent than they were in the spring. Rich Alexis, Braxton Cleman, and Chris Singleton bring a nice mix to the running game and if one of them gets hot and stays healthy, it could be a huge year. Michigan's defense is expected to be very strong, they are probably one of the better stopping units in the Big-10 on paper. Tacoma's Larry Stevens should be a handful at defensive end for the Wolverines. I expect the game to be low-scoring, to be honest. I also expect the guys in the gold helmets (not maize) to be "the victors".
From Dan Cooper in Eugene, OR
Dear Dawgman:
Coming to you from the sickening Duck Country called Eugene, OR. 2 questions: What is the latest on Strong Safety Dashon Goldson, and is there any potential for him to suit up in the fall??? And, any plans on having a huge rally for the team at the Valley River Inn here in Eugene the night before the Duck-Husky game?? Keep up the good work on your site!!!
A: Goldson is not expected to make it and will likely go to a junior college. If there is a rally, and I'm sure there will be, it would most likely be at Autzen Stadium, the morning before the game. Usually the night before the game you are on your own, but if you do come to the Valley River Inn, come look us up. We're usually by the fireplace, just outside the bar. It all depends on what time "Softy" gets us kicked out.
From Al H
Dear Dawgman:
Thank for this great site. I enjoy following the information on recruiting and plan on ordering the recruiting video. My question concerns the basketball program and recruiting. I read an article concerning Justin Holt the forward from Lincoln. In it he said that he was never contacted by anyone from the UW coaching staff in recruiting. This I believe shows why Bender needed to go. Even though Holt was not impressive in the 4A championship game he is an impressive player and he did have 3 solid games including a game against B. Roy where he outclassed Roy. I saw Holt play in preseason tournament games down here in Longview and he was the class player of the tournament. Why did Bender not make the effort to go after him?
A: Once they got a verbal from Roy, the former staff didn't see the need to bring in another 6-6 player. Holt also was listening to then-OSU coach Ritchie McKay very early on so the Beavers had a big early lead that probably wasn't going to be erased. I agree that Holt is a great player now, but I think that Roy has a much bigger upside. I also saw Holt outplay Roy at the tourney, but they are different players and will be in college. Roy has the ability to take over a game, whereas Holt probably will not in college. With Roy, it will all depend on whether or not he can make it academically, and whether or not Romar can inspire him enough to remain focused on every possession. Roy has skills that are unreal and can score from anywhere.
From Bawana62
Dear Dawgman:
Unless I'm confused, D1 basketball players can make a binding declaration to a university before their HS season is even over. Why don't they have to wait for a national LOI day like football players?
A: Basketball has an early signing period for recruits that wish to get their recruiting over with. Football has not adopted anything similar to that yet. Hoops recruits can sign in the early period, or wait and sign later. Romar just picked up a recruit on Monday, signing 6-6 swingman Bobby Jones from Poly, who did not sign anywhere in the early period.
From DCDawg
Dear Dawgman:
I read with interest your excellent interviews with Coach Neu and Coach Hundley before the upcoming Spring. The interview with Hundley did concern me a little in that he seemed, on the one hand to want to get the best players on the field at the same time, but on the other hand was planning to stick with the 4-3 defensive scheme. In your player profiles that followed it seemed that Hundley had difficulty finding enough solid, healthy dependable players to fill the four front line slots plus solid backups and there seemed several question marks, while at linebacker he seemed to be loaded with depth and talent. Ellis has some questions with his health and AK-47 has not played REB before. My question is, with all the depth and talent at linebacker, why not go to a 3-4? Other than Ellis, there does not seem to be an experienced REB. Also, do you think Hundley is gone if the defense does poorly this year?
A: Getting four linebackers on the field at the same time will happen plenty, just watch. Although they run a base 4-3, often times two "SAM" linebackers will be on the field and one will drop when the ball is snapped, creating a 4-3. REB is a big question mark heading into fall, very true. Anthony Kelley has played the position before, however. I think he's ready to have a big senior season, since he'll have no pressure of schoolwork on him. He'll have earned his degree by the time football starts. Behind him, you could move Graham Lasee there if Hawaii true freshman Donny Mateaki comes in ready to play the "HUSKY", or big defensive end position. Do I think Hundley's job is in jeopardy if the defense flounders? Yes. However, one of Hundley's strong suits is that he asks for everyone's input on defense, he is very democratic. New LB coach Cornell Jackson will have some new wrinkles that they'll experiment with in the fall.
From Older Dawg in ORE
Dear Dawgman:
Just received my 2002 recruitment video...And I thank you!! Yummy.. The question has been called for: What do the Husky coaches and personnel do for an athlete who has yet to pass his SAT or ACT? I get weak in these old knees when I think of who qualifies, who doesn't and such.. I'm aware of some of the programs to assist student athletes once they're enrolled but what about BEFORE???
A: Thanks for ordering the video, and we're glad you enjoyed it. It was really fun to put together! Husky coaches and personnel can do nothing more than encourage prospective student athletes to study hard, inform them of different study opportunities, and then hope for the best. They also can let the athlete know that they're still holding a scholarship for them, to reassure them.
From JSM
Dear Dawgman:
Dawgman, Let's say Kim Taylor makes it in, and in time for the 2002 football season. Will he and Shyne both have 5 years to put in 4 years at the UW? And if so let's assume that Alexander, Johnson, Cunningham and Massey area all better and healthy for the 2002 season. Let's say RN finds that 4 or 5 or even 6 CB's for the 2002 season would they and I hope they do RS both Shyne and Taylor? And when do you think we would hear anything about Pat Reddick and maybe a 6th year for Robbins?
A: Yes, both Taylor and Shyne would have a full term of eligibility beginning in the fall. Both would be allowed to redshirt if they aren't able to crack the rotation. Patrick Reddick received his 6th year of eligibility, and Robbins won't apply for one until he needs it. They are still somewhat hopeful that Robbins may be able to return this fall, with some luck.
From HA in Seattle
Dear Dawgman:
What is your opinion of the players who will be making position changes and their possible impact? I am thinking particularly of Robin Meadow and Ty Eriks. Also, which redshirt freshmen other than Hopoi do you see as ready to contribute next fall?
A: Meadow stayed on the OL and adds nice depth at tackle. Eriks will be a backup to Jafar Williams at SAM linebacker, and could be a great addition there. With 4.5 speed and good ball skills, he could be a real playmaker. Other than Hopoi, who is actually listed as a sophomore because of his partial qualifier status, watch out for Evan Benjamin and James Sims as two redshirt freshmen that will contribute this fall.
From Bellevue dawg fan
Dear Dawgman:
I have been enjoying your site for the last couple of years and check it almost daily. Thanks for all the hard work and your excellent insight on the players and program. I have been living down in south Orange County for the past 20 years and always pulled for the Dawgs. I would like to share some of my thoughts on the Huskies and Pac-10 and hear your opinion. Although I hate to admit it I feel after a decade of under achievement the men of troy are starting to put it together. I think they could be very good. UCLA is loaded with talent and still Under-coached. My worry is that much talent can overcome a lot of adversity. I feel Oregon has become a monster (The program is really good). I think Oregon State is very well coached and will continue to be an extremely difficult team to deal with. Remember last year's game? I feel these four teams will be the primary nemesis for the Dawgs over the next 5 years. Please give me your assessment of these teams and your opinion of how Washington will prepare to beat them.
A: I think UCLA and USC are always loaded with talent but neither team has dealt well with adversity or key injuries. Unless USC discovers a running game (and it looks like they may have with Justin Fargas and Darryl Poston), they will be mediocre. Washington will outscore them. The Bruins pummeled Washington physically last year but this year, I think the more experienced Husky OL won't give up 10 sacks as they did a year ago. If Pickett winds up in a hospital like Barton did last year, expect another loss. I don't expect that to happen. Washington will win because UCLA cannot replace Marcus Anderson or Robert Thomas that easily. I think the teams that will give Washington the most trouble will be Oregon and Washington State. The Ducks have a woefully underrated defensive line that the Pac-10 will learn about quickly. However, their corners may be suspect. They have the best running back in the Pac-10 and they always find a way to make the counter pitch work against us. Usually they set it up with that tight end backside dump pass that makes all of the linebackers yell, "Oh $#*t". Washington State will move the ball well if Gesser gets confident and they have the second best receiver in the conference in Mike Bush (of course we know who the best WR is, right dawg fans?). Those two games scare me the most, but ask me again in August. I wish Washington didn't miss Stanford this year, they could really struggle this year.
From Husky Heat
Dear Dawgman:
I love Washington's potential on offense next year... However, I am a DAWG!!! I miss Purple Reign!!! It is important for the Huskies DB's to step up next year. The speed will be there! Do you think they will tinker with the scheme!!! Who will be the projected starters in the entire secondary!!!
A: They have simplified things a great deal this spring. They looked more disciplined in those sets, and will move out from those simple base 4-3 sets. The starting secondary will be Carothers and Newell at the safeties and Alexander and Johnson at the corners. The nickel back will either be Massey or Cunningham. If Newell cannot remain healthy, expect Evan Benjamin to be the first safety off of the bench. In terms of speed, Newell, Alexander, and Cunningham are all under 4.5 in the 40. Alexander is the fastest.
From Aloha Mike
Dear Dawgman:
You answer all of our inquires quickly, except during recruiting, and with satisfying answers. How about you telling the readers about YOU? Likes, dis-likes, goals, education, how you ended up as Dawgman, and etc. You seem to have a tremendous following. Keep up the great work.
A: Well, I graduated from the UW in 1985 with a degree in Business. Did my MBA work at Seattle University. I play drums in a blues band that is working on a CD (if you like Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn, you'd love us).
I became "Dawgman" back in 1995 when a good friend named Kevin Brager and I used to hang out on prodigy bulletin boards (whew!). The website first began then and then I partnered with Kim Grinolds and went "public" in April of 1998. It's been incredibly rewarding, fun, and a lot of work, but rewarding because of the happiness people seem to get out of visiting our site. That means everything.
The help we get on the site is amazing. People like Chris Fetters that work hard calling recruits and covering practices, Joe Kaiser for doing features and covering basketball, Dawn Van Diest for doing player features and post game interviews, Perry Huang for covering Softball and baseball, Rick Samek for doing opponent analysis, Pat Thrapp for doing opponent statistical match ups, Derek Johnson for sharing his gift of writing and knowledge and love of Husky football, Duckfighter and Groinman for providing their wit and unique points of view, Cameron Stevens for his research on past Husky games, Monte Phillips for his Husky heros pieces, and our newest intern Henry Han for his youthful exuberance and willingness to do anything to help out and make this site a better experience for Husky fans.
All of those things make the site special, but they don't make the site what it is. Husky fans like yourself do that, and that is what it's all about.
Sites all over the country have now copied our business model of being subscription-based and focused on one team, which is very flattering. When we first started that model, no one thought it would work. Our network back then (the old defunct Rivals.com) scoffed at it, but soon every site was trying it out with success. It was neat to see that model catch on.
My personal interests range from rock, blues, and jazz, golf, tennis, and Pinot Noir wines. My biggest dislike is unhappiness. I feel terrible for anyone that cannot find happiness in this life. You only get one shot at it, so why not have fun?
My goals for dawgman.com have never changed. Number one was to bring accurate and timely information to Husky fans that might not otherwise get it. Although the internet has exploded since that initial goal, it remains the same. The other goal was to have fun doing it, and we're certainly doing that. With the dot.com crashes and with our old URL we spent over two years developing and building being given away, it would've been easy for the site to die. It didn't. Why didn't it? Because of fans like you. Dawgman.com has a membership that is over thee times what it was when our old network died. That is really a testament to Husky fans and how much enjoyment they get out of this experience, and that is incredibly rewarding. Otherwise I wouldn't be doing this. I'm thrilled that the little Husky site that started back in 1996 brings so much fun and entertainment to fans around the country today.
The most rewarding experience I've had doing this was getting to know and meet Curtis Williams and his brother David. That was an amazing experience and I'll be eternally grateful to Curtis for teaching us all so much and for touching us with his spirit.
I know this was long-winded Mike, but I hope it answered your question.

Prabal Gurung shows power dressing and pleats for spring '17
Prabal Gurung proved power dressing is back with his spring 2017 collection.
The Nepali-American designer presented his latest line at New York Fashion Week on Sunday night (11Sep16), showing a range of flowing dresses and gowns that will no doubt have the It crowd in raptures.
Walking his runway were a slew of models including Hailey Baldwin, who wowed in a black dress with puffed sleeves, button detailing and multiple splits along the bottom.
Keeping the chillier temperatures of the spring months in mind, Gurung, 37, stuck to transitional neutral shades, with a smattering of cobalt blue, as well as including a handful of sweaters, dusters, and coats for layering. For instance, he paired white cropped trousers with a shoulder-baring cashmere sweater with blue and yellow floral details with a casual beige coloured jacket.
Gerung also amped up the glamour with a line-up of stunning gowns, all in jewel coloured hues.
A standout was a deep violet bias cut gown, which had a vivid tangerine petticoat underneath.
And along with his signature draping, Gurung also took the opportunity to play with pleating.
A floor-length sapphire blue gown with plunging neckline had a layer of pleated fabric around the bottom, while a coral pink dress with train featured long pleated sleeves which flowed behind the model as she took to the runway.
Gurung kept hair and make-up simple, opting for straight locks and clean foundation with a swipe of black eyeliner across the lids. The minimalist styling worked to draw attention to his new jewellery collection too. The models wore oversize, sculptural silver earrings, which were handmade in Nepal from recycled metals and evoke flower buds.
"I wanted to highlight Nepal's special crafts," he told Vogue.com of the designs. "These artisans have been making jewellery for generations, but they're dying arts. Technology is taking over, but there's something very Old World and charming about the flaws and imperfections in handcrafted goods."

NEW YORK – September 24, 2012 – The season three premiere of Syfy's hit drama series Haven became the #1 primetime drama on cable in Adults 25-54 during its telecast on Friday, September 21 from 10-11 PM (ET/PT).
The delivery of 899,000 Adults 25-54 was up 13 percent from the season two premiere and represented the series' best delivery in that demo in two years (September 2010).
Haven also drew 2.0 million total viewers, up six percent versus the July 2011 season two premiere.
In the premiere, Haven picked up immediately following the events of the gripping season two finale with Audrey (Emily Rose) having been kidnapped; Nathan (Lucas Bryant) warned against pursuing a romantic relationship with Audrey; and Duke (Eric Balfour) seemingly engaged in a fight to the death with Nathan after he discovers his family lineage is to kill Haven citizens with Troubles.
This season's guest stars include Iain Glen (Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey), Bree Williamson (Gossip Girl, One Life To Live), Laura Vandervoort (Smallville, White Collar), Edge (WWE Superstar), Dorian Missick (Southland, The Cape), Kate Kelton (Harold and Kumar, American Psycho 2), Nolan North (Uncharted video game series, Pretty Little Liars), and Claudia Black (Uncharted video game series, Farscape).
Following last year's successful innovative Twitter campaign, season three will introduce online viewers to a new entity in the Haven mythology—The Guard. Mysterious and deeply entrenched in the history of Haven, The Guard has hijacked Haven social media channels to get their message out—if you are troubled, we can help #EscapeToHaven by @TheGuardHaven. The Guard—represented by Kate Kelton, who portrays 'Jordan McKee" — has taken over Facebook (facebook.com/haven), YouTube (youtube.com/syfyimaginegreater) and Twitter profiles for Haven (Twitter.com/TheGuardHaven), using these social media channels to tell the story of Haven, and to attract new "recruits" to Haven.
Haven, based on the novella The Colorado Kid from renowned author Stephen King, follows former FBI agent Audrey Parker, who becomes a cop in the small town of Haven, Maine, and soon discovers the town's many secrets, which also hold the key to unlocking the mysteries of her lost past.

Yours in Truth: A Personal Portrait of Ben Bradleeby Jeff Himmelman
"I hope we're as good friends when you finish your book as we are now," Ben Bradlee, the legendary former executive editor of The Washington Post, told Jeff Himmelman in March 2010. "But I don't give a [expletive deleted] what you write about me."

"I hope we're as good friends when you finish your book as we are now," Ben Bradlee, the legendary former executive editor of The Washington Post, told Jeff Himmelman in March 2010. "But I don't give a [expletive deleted] what you write about me."
So begins Ben, an intimate portrait of a fixture on the American scene for nearly half a century—close friend to John F. Kennedy, the center of D.C. social life, and a crusty, charismatic editor whose decisions at the helm of the Post during Watergate changed the course of history. Granted unprecedented access to Bradlee and his colleagues, friends, and private files, Himmelman draws on never-before-seen internal Post memos, correspondence, personal photographs, and private interviews to trace the full arc of Bradlee's forty-five year career—from his early days as a press attaché in postwar Paris through the Pentagon Papers, Richard Nixon's resignation, the Janet Cooke fabrication scandal, and beyond. Himmelman also unearths a series of surprises—about Watergate, and about Bradlee's private relationships with Post owner Katharine Graham and President Kennedy and his wife, Jackie.
"Don't feel you have to protect me," Bradlee told Himmelman whenever the reporting started to strike close to home. "Follow your nose." Those instructions, familiar to any Post reporter, have resulted in this thoughtfully constructed and beautifully written account of a magnetic man whose career has come to define the golden age of newspapers in America, when the press battled for its freedom—and won.
Editorial Reviews
Phil Bronstein
"The best Bradlee biography we're likely to get."—The New York Times Book Review
"Surprising and compulsively readable . . . Himmelman's chapters on Watergate are especially masterful, untangling that web in a fresh and comprehensible way."—Minneapolis Star Tribune
"A sparkling, revealing, definitely controversial, and very readable book . . . highly amusing, particularly for any connoisseur of juicy modern American politics."—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"The bold brilliance of Jeff Himmelman's Yours in Truth comes through because it is not simply a biography of a quixotic figure who changed the timbre of American newspapers. Rather, it is also a riveting history lesson with fastidiously researched facts intertwined with first-person observations."—Charleston Post and Courier
"Embedded in Yours in Truth there are fundamental insights about journalism and the role of a dynamic press."—The Atlantic
"The biographer either sells his soul for the cozy dinners or bails for the truth. Himmelman chose the latter."—The Huffington Post
"[A] riveting new life of one of America's greatest editors."—The Daily Beast

Okay, so the faux headline isn't so clever. But Yours In Truth, is beyond clever, for my money, the best book of the year: it is GREAT history about REALPEOPLE who helped shape our lives today. EXCITING? Oh my yes, we read as heros Bernstein and Woodward (W&B)inch their way toward the oval office with meager evidence they must decipher and unravel under the unforgiving guidance of Editor Bradlee. What we all get to see is just how difficult it is to get to the root of an important news story and how perilous it is to make assumptions without cooberation of the findings. And in the end learn a great deal about the humanity of the great people such as Katherine Graham who owned and published the great Washington Post and her valiant Editor Bradlee. It is a great love story about people who love what they do and who do what they love. And if you love our system of free press and are the least curious about the people who make it work, you too will find "Yours In Truth" exciting and lively and vivid.
I want to thank those of Random House who donate books to giveaways. I am sincere in this. I love biographies of interesting and great individuals. However this was not one of them. If Ben Bradlee was such a great Journalist, why is his vocabulary so limited that he had to very frequently resort to profanity to express himself. He was such a negative reporter! He seemed to degrade everyone and everything he could. He couldn't speak civilly to many of those he responded to. True greatness gets the job done but with a little 'class'. It is people like him, just as with crooked political leaders, that has degraded our country. I doubt he really understood truth. With all its' problems, America is still the greatest country in the world. If you don't believe it, live among those poverty-ridden, suppressed people in other countries. The author jumped through years so sporadically that is also lost any interest the reader might have had. It was very unorganized documentationsI won this book and am very glad I did not purchase it.

This week we delve into a topic that feels like it would be more at home on a tech blog than a travel blog: hacking.
You may or may not have noticed the uptick in hacking incidents related to the travel industry recently. In 2015 both American Airlines and United were victims of "cyber attacks" where their systems were compromised resulting in customer information being stolen as well tickets being fraudulently purchased. And then there is the matter of Delta airlines in August of this year when their system was completely down due to what the airline explained was a "power outage". More on this later. While some people would be quick to label these acts "cyber terrorism", I would choose not to since no investigations have found this to be the case and furthermore, because I detest how frequently the word terrorism is thrown about by the media in order to scare people. This being said, there are some things to worry about when it comes to hacking airlines.
First, airlines are private companies, and as such their main concern is making money. Why mention this? Because airlines are loathe to report bad news about their operations which could adversely affect the share price and therefore cost them a lot of money. One could also say that such information could create the conditions for a vicious circle as well: the airline reports that it has been hacked, resulting in a loss of value vis a vis share price. This in turn makes the public wary of traveling with said airline, resulting in decreased sales, eventually leading to lower share prices… and the circle continues. Essentially, it is difficult to get a straight answer from the airlines when they have technical problems, just like it is difficult to get straight answers when they have mechanical problems or a plane crash because they do not want to do more damage to the company from bad publicity.
This makes the recent events concerning Delta all the more relevant because there have been some interesting developments since the "blackout". First, it appears this is the first time since the invention of electricity that a blackout singled out a particular company rather than a particular geographic location. The company said the cause of the system outage was a blackout, yet none of the people or businesses in the area surrounding Delta headquarters in Atlanta reported experiencing a blackout. Furthermore, the blackout affected all delta systems worldwide. Later, Delta walked back their statement and claimed it was a "system blackout" whatever that is. There has been some reporting on this incident and one could make the case that Delta is trying to cover up the fact they were the victim of a cyber attack that compromised their entire system. This is in fact what has been reported by Debka File, a site with clear connections to Israeli intelligence and people who would be in a position to know such information.
Most of these events seem remote to many people, unless they are directly affected by the incidents. Most customers stranded due to Delta's "blackout" would take it in stride just the same as if they were delayed due to bad weather, or other benign circumstances. But it is important to recognize the dangers here. An airline is responsible for the lives of a great many people every day who are traveling, and while a system failure could present serious problems for them, it would be much worse if the air infrastructure of the US (or any other country) is attacked. Think if the chaos that could ensue if the FAA air traffic control systems were compromised, or if even a main center like NYC was taken offline. We are not talking about reservation systems and frequent flyer numbers, but collision avoidance, radar, ILS and other vital systems that keep planes from crashing into each other. The likelihood of one of these types of attacks seems only to grow with the sophistication of those who engage in these types of attacks.

The pair, Mark Webb, 20, and an unidentified 17-year-old girl, were planning to make a video recording of a duel like those in the just-released blockbuster film Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith, Britain's Press Association news agency said.
They were injured when one of the makeshift sabers exploded Sunday evening in the woods in Hemel Hempstead, north of London.
Hertfordshire Police said a third person present when the explosion happened had been questioned. The department said the two who were injured were in critical condition at a burns unit in Chelmsford, Essex.
"At this stage we are unable to confirm the exact circumstances, but glass tubes and traces of accelerant (flammable substance) were found at the scene," police said.

It'd be hard to imagine a pretzel-lover who hasn't had a moment of weakness with one of Auntie Anne's soft baked pretzels. To learn how the eatery makes its signature item, we headed to the test kitchen at Surfas. Start with homemade pretzel dough or the Auntie Anne's at-home baking kit, then watch the video to learn how to best construct a pretzel, either with the more advanced lasso technique or a simpler, kid-friendly method. To top it all off, dip your baked goods into Auntie Anne's hot salsa cheese dip or sweet glaze.

Some teens care deeply about their grades. They study hard, complete their homework without being told and put a lot of effort into their papers and projects. These students are intrinsically motivated to get good grades.

There are plenty of other students, however, that just don't have that internal drive to get good grades. They may not care if they fall behind in school.

Or, they may forgo studying to play on their electronics without any concern about how it may affect their grades. For these students, a low test score or a failing paper doesn't really phase them.

If your teen is motivated to get good grades, there are some steps you can take to help. While you can'f force him to do better, you can encourage him to take his education a little more serious.

Create Healthy Homework Habits

If your teen isn't motivated to study and do his homework on his own, you'll need to intervene and provide more structure. Some teens need help with time management while other teens to know how to rid themselves of other distractions so they can concentrate on their work.

Establish clear rules about homework. For example, consider setting aside a designated homework time each evening. Also, problem-solve with your teen about how he can get his homework done each evening. Sometimes teens have ideas about what would be helpful to them.

Implement Rewards

If your teen isn't motivated by his report card, you may need to implement some other rewards that will give him an incentive to do well.

But don't offer a big reward at the end of the school year. Saying something like, "I'll buy you concert tickets if you get all As all year." That is likely too lofty of a goal and your teen may give up at the first sign he can't earn the incentive.

Offer short-term incentives. A weekly goal, such as allowing your teen to go to the movies on Friday night if he passes in his work all week, could be a better motivator.

If your teen really struggles to do his work, establish a nightly goal. For example, tell him he can use his electronics as soon as his homework is done.

You can also combine rewards. Offer a small nightly incentive, as well as a weekly or monthly incentive. Get your teen involved in choosing what privileges he'd like to earn.

Keep in mind that rewards don't have to be expensive. Many of the privileges you give your teen already can become incentives. For example, only allow your teen to use his cellphone or his video games when he is keeping his grades up.

Basing your teen's privileges on his willingness to show you he can be responsible is an opportunity to teach him life skills.

If he doesn't do any of his school work, you may not trust him to be responsible with your car. Or, if he can't get his homework done because he can't resist replying to text messages, you'll know he probably won't be able to resist doing the same when he's behind the wheel.

Concerns About Rewarding Teens for Doing Their Work

Sometimes, parents think they shouldn't have to reward teens for their grades. But, offering extra incentives could be the key to keeping teens engaged in their education.

But, sometimes, a few extra incentives can go a long way toward improving a teen's attitude about school. And that may be all he needs to perform his best.

So consider small incentives as an investment in your teen's education. Extra privileges could be the key to helping him succeed in school.

Rewards can also reduce the conflict. If you're used to nagging your teen or lecturing him about his grades, take a step back. Offer an incentive and leave it up to him to earn it. Then, you'll help him learn to develop the self-discipline he needs to become a responsible adult.

UMAG, Croatia (AP) Top-seeded Nikolay Davydenko saved five set points in the first set Friday before reaching the semifinals of the Croatia Open with a 7-6 (10), 6-1 win over Simone Bolelli of Italy.
Bolelli had two set points at 6-5 and three more in the tiebreaker. It was Davydenko's eighth singles win in a row after taking the German Open title last weekend. The Russian missed nearly four months at the start of the year with injuries, but is 16-3 since the French Open.
Bolelli fell to 0-20 against top-10 ranked players.
Davydenko will next face fourth-seeded Jurgen Melzer of Austria, who saved four match points to oust Ivan Ljubicic of Croatia 4-6, 7-6 (3), 6-3.
Ljubicic had one match point at 5-4 in the second and three more at 6-5 before Melzer rallied.
It will be Melzer's first semifinal of the year, after losing in the quarterfinals in Kitzbuhel, Halle and Bastad.
Juan Carlos Ferrero of Spain also advanced by beating Maximo Gonzalez of Argentina, 7-5, 6-2 to set up a semifinal against Andreas Seppi of Italy. Seppi ousted Chile's Nicolas Massu 6-4, 6-4.

Representatives of Instafreebie (https://www.instafreebie.com/) will give a workshop on using their service to build your audience by giving away free copies.
Information on NECRWA meetings
If you write historical romance, part of what you are selling is the chance to live in someone else's skin. Maybe your character is Marianne, a half-Jamaican hotelier seduced by a spy during the Crimean War; or Laura, a diplomat's daughter who rescues a wounded American Marine in the Boxer Rebellion. Either way, flat descriptions from encyclopedias won't cut it. You need to mine primary sources for the convincing details of everyday life. Where else will you learn how Marianne chased off a thief with her rusty horse pistol, primed only with coffee? Or how Laura saved her favorite white pony from becoming dinner for starving Americans in Beijing? This workshop is designed to introduce the writer to primary sources: how to find them, how to assess their reliability, and how to keep track of the information within them. The emphasis will be on free resources found online, including books, memoirs, newspaper articles, magazines, maps, photographs, and note-taking software. Any period of study is possible, but the best online materials are found for the eighteenth through twentieth centuries, including Regency, Victorian, Edwardian, British India, and American Western periods.
Jennifer Hallock is the author of the Sugar Sun Series, historical romance set during the Philippine-American War. She has lived and worked in the Philippines, but she currently writes at her little brick house on a New England homestead—kept company by her husband, a growing flock of chickens, and two geriatric border collie mutts. She spends her days teaching history and her nights writing historical happily-ever-afters. Before the internet made it easy, Jen worked as a fact-checker for several academic publications. She also researched and published an article on human trafficking for a peer-reviewed journal. These days she teaches generations of history students how to write research papers, and she has even helped a handful of these teenagers get their own work published.
This year, agents and editors at our conference will be reading the five pages in which your hero and heroine meet. Even if you're not pitching, this is a great chance to get some feedback on this important moment in your book. Bring five copies of the first five pages where the heroine meets the hero.
Prior to her writing career, author Jen Malone was the New England Head of Publicity and Promotions for 20th Century Fox and Miramax Films, charged with creating localized, grassroots campaigns to compliment the mass marketing efforts of the studio. In this seminar, Jen draws on those strategies to discuss outside-the-box techniques authors can employ to get their title noticed in a cluttered marketspace. We'll examine why the target audience influences most of the marketing decisions and unique ways to specifically reach those readers. Finally you'll be shown examples of marketing campaigns that managed to create that elusive "buzz" and examine ways you can do the same for your title!
Jen Malone writes books for tweens and teens, including At Your Service, the You're Invited series, and the forthcoming The Sleepover with Simon & Schuster, as well as Map to the Stars and the forthcoming Wanderlost with HarperCollins. She is a former Hollywood marketing exec who once spent a year traveling the world solo, met her husband on the highway (literally), and went into labor with her identical twins while on a rock star's tour bus. These days she saves the drama for her books. You can learn more about Jen and her titles at www.jenmalonewrites.com.
Are you confused when we talk about "voice" in writing? Editors say it's what they're looking for, and agents say it can make the difference between a mid-list and a best-selling career. It's often defined as "a writer's personality on the page," but how do we put it there? Is it something natural, organic, or something related to our writing craft?
This workshop will explore the integrated writing elements that make up voice, such as style, tone, and content (each with its own sub-elements) and what choices we make that affect our voices. We'll analyze recognizable samples of strong writing voices, and through discussion and exercises, map out some ways to strengthen our own voices for greater writing success.
Award-winning author Gail Eastwood started writing stories as soon as she learned to string words together on paper. After detours into journalism and rare books, she finally found her path writing "traditional" Regency romances acclaimed for pushing the genre's boundaries with emotional depth and innovative plots. Published by Signet and twice nominated for Romantic Times Magazine's Career Achievement award, Gail had to put writing on hold to deal with family health issues, but honed her teaching skills in the interim. Now she is back doing what she loves best, but still enjoys helping to nurture the writing gift in others. Most of her backlist is now available and she has new books in the works.
A storyboard is a visual of your book, a quick overview, of the flow of your story. It allows you to quickly see an overview of your book without having to read paragraphs in a synopsis or notes in a notebook. It also facilitates plot brainstorming and helps keep you writing during the process. In this session, we'll discuss how to design a storyboard that works best for you and then how to use it for plotting, revision, and brainstorming.

If He's Noble, the sixth book in the Wherlocke series will be out in September
In this workshop, Hannah will speak on the importance of the words you use in your writing. How the change of one simple verb can take your sentence from adequate to powerful. Or how you can give the reader a good picture of a character with just a few well-chosen words instead of pages of description. Even how the use of such things as simile and metaphor can add texture and depth. A story has a plot and characters you hope will catch a reader's attention but it is the words you use that will hold it fast. There will be handouts and book recommendations.
Sunday's meeting is cancelled due to probably snow. See you all on March 15.

New York (AP) - MSNBC said Friday that "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough will be suspended for donating to four Republican candidates in local
The donations, first reported by the website Politico, came between 2004 and 2008.
"Because the contributions involved local, non-competitive races - and were given for personal rather than political reasons - I mistakenly believed I did not need approval from MSNBC,"
NBC News bans political donations from its staff members unless special permission is granted by the network president.
"As Joe recognizes, it is critical that we enforce our standards and policies,"
Olbermann called for a re-examination and public debate about the no-donation rule, which he suggested may not make sense during an era of opinionated cable news hosts. NBC News has given no indication that the rule is being reconsidered.
"I am proud to work for the NBC News family," he said. "There is nothing more important than maintaining the integrity of its highly respected brand."
AP Television Writer Frazier Moore contributed to this report.

Cibolo Steele quarterback and Texas Tech commit Xavier Martin is just that; committed to the Red Raiders solely as a quarterback.
Martin is coming off his junior season, his first season as the starting QB, in which he led Steele to a 14-1 record and all the way to the Class 6A Division 2 state semifinals. Despite operating in a run-heavy system, Martin passed for 2,048 yards and 21 touchdowns with just three interceptions to go along with 678 yards and eight scores on the ground.
The Scout three-star prospect recently raised eyebrows across the state with his impressive performance at the Elite 11/Opening regional in Houston.
The Nike camp afforded Martin the opportunity to show off his arm strength and accuracy while confirming his status as one of the most athletic quarterback prospects in the Lone Star State by running a laser timed 4.43-second 40-yard dash and posting a 120.39 Sparq score, which was not only the third best of the day regardless of position, but the second best score posted by a QB. Ever.
RaiderPower.com caught up with the Red Raider commit about his performance and current standing with Tech in the interview below.
Raider Power: First off, I saw you put up an impressive score at the Opening over the weekend. How it go from your perspective? Break it down for me.
Martin: I thought Elite 11 was great, I feel like I did really good. I felt like I showed I can compete with the best in the state even though people have me labeled as an athlete, I'm really strictly a QB. It was cool finishing in the top guys and being able to represent the QBs, I was the first QB ever to participate in that event (fastest man) and that's a great feeling.
Raider Power: I've tried to explain to people about your arm, but like you said people like to label players. How'd you throw over the weekend and how are you progressing as a passer?
Martin: I think I threw really well. During the day I only incompleted 4 or 5 balls the whole day and then during the finals I went 3 for 5 during the 7 on 7 so I was proud of that. And I'm progressing really well, I've worked on just getting quicker with my feet and getting bigger this off season not really throwing but doing that has helped my throwing because my feet are a lot better.
Raider Power: As far as Tech, how are things going, how often do you hear from the coaches? You hear from any of them about your performance over the weekend?
Martin: I talk to Coach Morris and Coach K probably about once or twice a week, and yes they told me they're really proud of me and they expected me to do good. They say they're excited for what I can bring to their offense.
Raider Power: watched a lot of Steele film after the season honestly mostly to write more about Bryson and Antoine who were about to sign and you really grabbed my attention with your combination of speed and arm strength. Describe for Tech fans what you bring to the table at QB and what you'll bring to the offense?
Martin: I think I personally bring athleticism, arm strength and accuracy. A lot of the times I had chances to make plays but my coach didn't want me to run the ball too much in games that didn't matter so I wouldn't get hurt but the games that did matter like Judson, and Desoto and Brennan I turned it up running and throwing the ball wise. And with my arm I can sit back in the pocket all day. When I got hurt and wasn't able to run when we played Clemens I didn't run one time but I went 14-17 passing. So even though I can run I can still throw like a quarterback.
Raider Power: I think we already asked about this, but just to be thorough. What was your reaction to Coach Jinks taking the head coaching gig with Bowling Green and does that change your status with Tech at all?
Martin: Coach Jinks leaving didn't change it I committed to a school not a coach.
Raider Power: Do you have any plans to visit Tech anytime soon?
Martin: I probably won't visit until my official.
Raider Power: Tech's had a couple decommits in the class recently. Does that concern you at all? Are you actively trying to help recruit anybody?
Martin: It doesn't concern me, we'll ball with or without them. And Adam Beck.
Raider Power: Yeah, we've interviewed Beck a couple times and he seems to be interested. Anything you can share about what y'all talk about?
Martin: We've just talked about getting him up to tech and how much we want him.
Raider Power: Well, what's next? Are you running track this spring? If so how's it going?
Martin: I start running track again next week. My coach wanted to save me again for district.
Raider Power: What events are you competing in?
Martin: The 100, 4x1, 4x2, and long jump.
Raider Power: Alright, thanks for your time and congrats on all your success.
Martin: Thank you, you're welcome.

Just as I was shutting down for the day and getting ready to enjoy my holiday, Reuters dropped an explosive story. One that I cannot wrap my head around it fully just yet.
The story that came out was one from a file released in the Snowden leaks. The story is that the National Security Agency had allegedly paid the security vendor RSA $10 million to cripple encryption and ship their own products to customers. This would then allow the NSA to be able to monitor communications that would otherwise be thought to be secure.
From Reuters:
Documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden show that the NSA created and promulgated a flawed formula for generating random numbers to create a "back door" in encryption products, the New York Times reported in September. Reuters later reported that RSA became the most important distributor of that formula by rolling it into a software tool called Bsafe that is used to enhance security in personal computers and many other products.
Undisclosed until now was that RSA received $10 million in a deal that set the NSA formula as the preferred, or default, method for number generation in the BSafe software, according to two sources familiar with the contract.
This evening I reached out to RSA seeking comment.
Call me a Pollyanna if you must but, I did actually received a reply back from RSA. Rather than take the leaked document solely on face value I figured I'd take a novel approach and ask the company for comment.
This is the email that I received,
From: [REDACTED]
Subject: Re: Seeking Comment Regarding the NSA / RSA Story
Date: 20 December, 2013 8:58:08 PM EST
To: "Dave Lewis [Liquidmatrix]"
Hi Dave,
RSA always acts in the best interest of its customers and under no circumstances does RSA design or enable any back doors in our products. Decisions about the features and functionality of RSA products are our own.
Sent from my iPhone
The exact same response that they gave to Reuters. I do appreciate RSA taking the time to answer me. I think that since this story only just broke today I'm sure they're going to need some time to pull together a more succinct and detailed response. Previous documents leaked by Snowden have proven themselves out and I'm afraid that RSA will have a lot of explaining to do over the coming days.
So much for a happy holiday.
My curiousity with this report is that, if this story does in fact has merit, why would the contract for something such as this have only been for $10 million? Was this an over zealous sales person or team? The more I think about this the more questions that spring to mind.
Is it just me or does that price seem decidedly low in the grand scheme? My parting question would be, is this the first of more such disclosures?
If this RSA story turns out to be true, this will dominate the conversation for months to come.
[UPDATE] Dec 22, 2013: RSA responds to the Reuters article.

German politicians and former European Central Bank officials sharply criticized the ECB over the weekend and pushed for Germany, as the largest contributor to the euro zone rescue effort, to have more control in the central bank's matters, after President Mario Draghi signaled that the central bank could soon start purchasing government bonds.
"The new situation that Germany provides a growing share of the euro rescue, but has only one vote just like any other country no longer fits," Herbert Reul, a German politician and chairman of the Christian Democratic Union and Christian Social Union group within the European Parliament, told German magazine Focus on Sunday.
After resigning from the ECB last year in opposition to its bond buying program, former executive board member Juergen Stark warned in press reports that the further bond buys by the ECB would amount to "printing money," and risk increasing inflation.
While Germany holds 27.1% of the capital of the central bank, Executive Board Member Joerg Asmussen is the only other German on the 23-member governing council after Mr. Weidmann, who has just one vote.
In an interview with Focus magazine, Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said the problem is that "the economic and demographic weight in some committees and situations is not represented accordingly."

Framework for Leadership Investment and Evaluation
Submitted by Claire Reinelt on Sun, 05/10/2009 - 07:15
In a recent consulting opportunity with the United Way of Greater Toronto, I worked with Amanuel Melles, the Director of Organizational Capacity Building to develop a Framework for Leadership Investment and Evaluation. This framework, adapted from a GEO leadership framework, is designed to help funders clarify the purpose for their investments in leadership and to link those purposes to specific programs, and sample activities (The GEO framework is available in Investing in Leadership, vol. 1). Amanuel thought this framework could be useful for assisting the United Way and other leadership funders in Canada to become more intentional about where they are currently investing resources, where there are gaps in investment, and how they might work together to maximize the impact of their resources.
We adapted the framework in several ways. First, we included investments in field-level leadership and in developing systems capacity. Second, for each purpose we identified promising practices for leadership development and desired outcomes. Third, we produced a guide to assist funders (and leadership practitioners and evaluators) to use the framework as an assessment tool (download guide below). These adaptations made it easier for funders to make the link between their purpose, their methods, and their outcomes. <

This place is an amazing place to escape. Marilyn prepares a delicious breakfast in the morning and then is more than willing to show you around the farm. Would highly recommend staying and checking it out.Daniel2017-04-23T00:00:00Z
The accommodations is light, spacious and modern in a very quiet rural setting. We loved the area and the close proximity to Victor Harbor and Port Elliot.John2016-06-20T00:00:00Z
We were made to feel very welcome at Lisieux Farm by both Marilyn and Robin and especially their dog Millie who is very friendly and great around children. The accommodation is spacious, ultra clean and luxurious - perfect for a family or two couples. Breakfasts are copious with delicious fresh eggs from the chooks. We appreciated the quiet and beautiful scenery and highly recommend a walk up the back hill for wonderful views to the coast. We would love to come back.Alice2016-03-30T00:00:00Z
Spacious, comfortable and clean accomodation, in a wonderful peaceful rural environment. Marilyn and Robin were very responsive hosts and Millie the dog, the chickens, cows, wrens added to the charm of this accomodation. Town was an easy 10 min away and no difficulty going there to eat at night. Marilyn's breakfasts were a fantastic way to start the day and served at times to suit. We would certainly recommend this without hesitation.Helen2016-10-30T00:00:00Z
It was so lovely to stay in Marilyn's house. We arrived at night and stayed there just for one night. We enjoyed our staying and everything was fine. The rooms are quite new and very luxury. More luxury then in a hotel :-)Patrick2016-02-06T00:00:00Z
Marilyn was absolutely amazing. Made our little family feel so welcomed. The photos on this site dont do this beautiful farm justice. So much better in real life. Our 11month old son loved walking around with us on the farm watching all the animals. A beautiful home cooked breakfast in the morning and the eggs where fresh from her chickens. She even cooked eggs for our son. We cant wait to go back and stay again. Was a beautiful weekend away.kimberley2016-02-29T00:00:00Z
Nice people, modern facilities in the house, and friendly animals was the image of the place we had. Marilyn managed the accommodation with all her heart, which can be observed via every detail. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. We will definitely stay here again.Ting-Jen2015-10-16T00:00:00Z
It is a lovely, charming home and space. The house is surrounded by farm yard animals, it's peaceful and has a gorgeous sunset when it sits behind the trees. Marilyn is a wonderful, attentive and welcoming host. Definitely will recommend my friends and family for this lovely retreat.Cameron2017-01-25T00:00:00Z

Frozen RiverDirector: Courtney Hunt
Cast: Melissa Leo, Misty Upham, Charlie McDermott
A desperate single mother living in upstate New York resorts to smuggling illegal immigrants into the United States as a means of making ends meet in first-time feature director/screenwriter Courtney Hunt's emotionally wrenching drama, winner of the Grand Jury Prize for Best Dramatic Feature at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Ray Eddy is in an impossible position; it's two days before Christmas and her husband has suddenly disappeared with all of the family savings. Now, as the newly single mother of two realizes the futility of attempting to cover the house payments on her meager Yankee One Dollar Store wages, her children are forced to exist on a nutritionally devoid diet of popcorn and Tang. Deciding that her only hope for survival is to find a man who will support her and her children, Ray sets out to find a husband but instead makes the acquaintance of street-smart Mohawk Lila Littlewolf. Lila, too, has been struggling to keep her head above water amidst economic despair, and has recently stumbled across a rather unconventional solution to her dire financial situation. Lately, Lila has been earning a living by smuggling illegal immigrants into the U.S., but her tribal elders vehemently disapprove of the scheme and have recently attempted to stop it by forbidding the local auto dealers from selling her a car. As fate would have it, Ray's Dodge Spirit may just be the only thing the destitute mother can count on anymore, and as this unlikely pair gas up the tank for a daring dash across the iced-over St. Lawrence River, their fates become forever intertwined in ways that neither could have ever anticipated.

FROZEN RIVER marks an impressive debut for writer/director Courtney Hunt: here is a filmmaker that not only knows how to weave a powerful story with pacing that rarely takes a break for breathing, but one who also knows how to pull intensely dramatic performances from actors in that rarest arena of ensemble acting. Though many viewers may avoid this film because of its suggestion of uncompromising sadness and depression in a time when 'escape movies' seem to draw the larger audiences, simply giving into this story will offer insights into human behavior - from adults and children, from minority groups, and from the disenfranchised - that allow the ending of the story to resonate subtly and memorably.
Ray Eddy (Melissa Leo) lives with her two sons, teenager T.J. (the gifted young Charlie McDermott) and 5-year-old Ricky (James Reilly), in a shabby trailer house in the icy tundra where New York state meets Canada adjacent to a Mohawk Indian reservation. Ray's gambling addicted husband has deserted his family with the money being saved for a better, larger trailer house, and Ray is left to forge for her boys at her menial job, living paycheck to paycheck and forced to feed her children popcorn and Tang for meals. To make ends meet she attempts to find her missing husband and instead encounters his car as stolen by young Mohawk Lila (Misty Upham). Their confrontation leads to Ray and Lila partnering in smuggling immigrants (Chinese and Pakistani) from Canada to the US via drives across the frozen St. Lawrence river. How these two disparate women find common threads under desperate circumstances provides the bulk of this amazingly rich story.
Hunt manages to explore poverty, the displaced American Indian situation, smuggling, State Trooper mentality, and the extraordinary manner in which children left to their own parentless devices manage to stay above sinking with such skill that the incredible story being told seems like across the fence conversation - it is that real. The entire cast is exceptional, not only Leo and Upham, but all of the actors in even the smallest roles. This is a film to embrace, not avoid, as it speaks to the indomitable human spirit. Grady Harp
I have never written a review, so I'll be brief..
I noticed no other reviews so I just had to say, in
case anyone wanted to know...
this is a GREAT movie...

Interested in finding more information about this. This seems the first book to market:
The only CBT resource listed on the CompTIA site at this time:
Feb 23, 2012 at 8:27 UTC
The National Skills Academy for IT is an IT service provider.
I wasn't sure, so I reached out to CompTIA this morning. Right now the training options for Storage+ are limited, though more books, courseware, training, etc. will emerge soon.
Currently there is a study guide available from ucertify.com as you mentioned here - http://www.ucertify.com/certifications/CompTIA/storage-plus.html
As new options appear, details are added to the certification web site at http://certification.comptia.org/Training.aspx
At the National Skills Academy for IT, we're looking into when and how Storage+ learning resources will be included in our learning subscription. We'll post on our Spiceworks page as soon as those are ready.

While Borderlands 2 is all about the guns, there's bodies behind those guns, and they matter dang it! Familiarize yourself with the main playable characters of Borderlands 2 to add a little pathos to your pewpew as you traverse the dangerous world of Pandora!
| Maya is a Siren who was worshipped on the planet Athenas (her planet of origin) as a goddess, before learning that the monks that had raised her were exploiting her in order to rule the people of Athenas. After escaping she arrived at Pandora to learn about her heritage as a Siren and to melt any who oppose her.
Maya's skill is Phaselock, which allows her to lock an enemy in another dimension for a short period of time. It can be upgraded to do damage, but is primarily an excellent way to control large groups of enemies.
| Zer0 is an expert assassin/contract killer who headed to Pandora looking for a challenge. Very little is known about him as he is completely covered in a suit and no real information is found in the game about him. He only has four fingers on each hand though, leading some to believe he is not human.
His special ability is Decepti0n, which allows Zer0 to briefly cloak while deploying a secondary illusion of himself on the battlefield. Attacking while he is cloaked ends Decepti0n, but drastically increase the damage of any attack used. This is a great move for safely dealing massive damage to a single target.
| Axton is a commando from the planet Heironymus. After being discharged from the military for his excessive hubris and refusal to follow orders, Axton became a bounty hunter, eventually arriving at Pandora.
His special ability is the Sabre Turret, a mounted gun with 360 degree rotation that can be upgraded. It lasts 20 seconds and is a great way to both distract and attack enemies.
| Krieg is an escaped experiment who fled from a lab underneath Pandora. As a Psycho class fighter, he's destined to be an ultra-violent maniac who relishes killing, but fortunately he's guided by an inner voice that dictates he only kill bad people and help those who need it.
His special ability is Buzz Axe Rampage, which allows him to do massive amounts of damage with his buzz axe, while replenishing his health for each enemy he kills. The ability's cooldown is reduced as you take damage, encouraging Kreig players to play hyper aggressively.
| Gaige is a mechromancer and the creator of Deathtrap, her combat mech. After having her mech design stolen by her high school rival Marcy, Deathtrap accidentally killed Marcy thinking she was attacking Gaige. This forced Gaige and Deathtrap to flee Eden-5 and head for Pandora to avoid arrest.
Gaige's Special Ability is the use of her mech Deathtrap, whose abilities differ greatly depending on how you choose to level up.
| Salvador was born on Pandora and is the only member of the cast who is a native. He is a freedom fighter who battles against the corporations looking to exploit Pandora.
Salvador's special ability is Gunzerking, which allows the player to dual wield weapons for a short time. His natural hardiness and increased damage output while gunzerking makes Salvador an excellent tank.

The Government still has no way of being sure how effective a major fund has been in extending the lives of cancer patients, making it impossible to know if it is providing value for money, MPs have said.
In a highly critical report, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) said the Department of Health and NHS England had failed to manage the Cancer Drugs Fund effectively since its launch in 2010.
The fund was designed to give patients access to expensive new cancer drugs and drugs for rare cancers not available on the NHS.
Meg Hillier MP, chair of the PAC, said: "If cancer patients seeking its support are to get the best possible treatment there must be confidence that public money is being spent on the right medication, and at a fair price. We will be closely monitoring the progress made by the department and NHS England."
An NHS England spokesman said new independent figures show "the NHS's great success in improving cancer care and survival rates for patients across England".
