You probably don't know me. Would you give me access to your machine? Let's start with all the files in your user account. Can I have a peek at your records, photos, and e-mail? If I ask will you grant me access to your whole machine? Can I install just a little something in your OS?
Like I said, you probably don't know me but the odds are pretty good that code I've written is on your disk right now. The odds are good that it executes reasonably often and it has access to pretty much everything in your account – possibly everything on your machine. It doesn't matter if you are running, Mac, Windows, or Linux – my code is likely there. The code written by some of my friends is almost certainly executing on your machine as we speak… while you read this… it's executing away and it has access to all your data.
A little scary? Lucky for you I'm not part of some gang of thieves. My friends and I are professional software developers – we write code that ends up in high profile products. There are at least a couple thousand people who can make a claim as bold as the one I made above – I know at least a couple hundred of them directly.
The security of your documents is based on a fairly weak system of trust. You trust the companies you do business with – you trust Microsoft, Apple, and Adobe because you know they want your money and if they are careless with your documents they won't get it (at least in theory). Working at Adobe I can say this company has a strong ethical culture and your trust is very important to us. The company trusts its developers. If they do something malicious (or possibly even careless) they might lose their job and their career. Working as a developer pays fairly well. If you are like me, you have a basic trust that people are generally good. Most security exploits are just done out of curiosity or to prove that one can exploit the system. It's fairly rare that an exploit is to profit and even more rare that it is intended to do harm.
You might think the company has some elaborate security scheme to keep malicious code from getting into the product – not so. It might have some tools and process in place to try and catch developer mistakes but nothing that world stop a clever developer from inserting malicious code (and clever describes most software developers I know).
It's a good thing that people are basically good. If you look on your disk right now I'm pretty sure you'll find lots of software that you've used that you just downloaded from the internet for free (not pirated – just some open source or freeware utility from some generous soul). You probably have some software from small companies that you've paid for – I know I buy quite a lot of small utilities – not just for my Mac or PC but also for my Treo 650. All of this code has access to pretty much all the data on my machine as well.
The fact is, the security model on our machines is horribly outdated. The idea of all code running in a user account being equal comes from systems where the goal of security was to prevent one user from getting to another user's account. It was not to prevent code a user is running from getting to his own account.
But security experts these days are running around telling us developers (some of these experts are also developers and some of them are also my friends) that to secure a system we need "deep security" – every line of code – every instruction – must be 'safe'. Proven correct isn't even good enough for these folks – the code has to be 'safe' even if some other developer comes along and changes it after we wrote it! The problem, they say, is not the weak system of trust we have for software delivery but the fact that once your software is connected to the web, _anyone_ (meaning not one of those thousands of folks who wrote the good software but one of those _bad_ guys) can run any code they want on _your_ machine if us developers are allowed to make just one small mistake and let them through. These experts tell us we need safe languages to program in that will protect us developers from our own mistakes (we are only human – we will make mistakes) and that somehow adding layers of indirection above the hardware is going to keep your documents from getting into enemy hands.
The latest casualty in the war against unsafe programming is the "lowly integer.":http://www.ddj.com/dept/cpp/193501774 Apparently modulo numbers don't just go to infinity – they eventually wrap right around the universe and back to zero taking all your documents with them. Who knew? I'm surprised nobody has pointed out that an index is really just as dangerous as a pointer (which is, just an index to memory).
The problem with this approach to security is that it is a battle that can't be won and you, as the customer, get to pay the cost. What cost? The cost to pay the developer to make thousands of changes to his software to conform to security guidelines that will show few, if any actual problems and likely cause as many as are found. The cost to test those thousands of changes. And finally there is the performance loss in all of the redundant checks executing on your machine. Meanwhile – any high school kid can post his latest utility online and you'll happily download and run it (I'm not blaming _you_ – I do the same).
Part of the problem is that we don't even have a good definition of what secure means – when software prompts for your password and you hand it over and then it goes and does something bad, "is that a security hole?":http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,2067683,00.asp?kc=EWRSS03119TX1K0000594 I send a nasty letter every few months to American Express because they insist on sending me links like this in their e-mail:
I'm supposed to trust this link? And they wonder why people fall for phishing attacks.
There are two key components for security –
1. Trust – Even a fairly weak system of trust seems to be quite effective but we need to work on what it means to establish trust with a software vendor and what it means for them to establish trust with us as customers. Hello RIAA? Yes, I am your customer. I'm not here to steal your music. Now can I _please_ play it on the device I choose?
2. Verifiability – It doesn't matter how much you trust me – you should be able to look over my shoulder. From a software standpoint this means that the interface between the application and the OS should be provably verifiable, meaning all preconditions can be validated from within the function call (big hint to thieves here – if you want to hack a system look for system calls where the preconditions cannot be verified within the function then see what happens when you send in bad data!). This interface code should be open for public inspection.
This isn't a call to open source _everything_ – only the interface to the OS. It is important to establish trust, not only to check for mistakes, but to make sure that your code is doing what it claims. What's needed is a new security model at the OS level – you _should_ be able to run any application you choose on your machine, written by anyone, without worry that it could do significant harm or get access to any personal information. The application should only have access to files for which you grant explicit permission or files it created (and yes, I know about things like decompression bombs – like I said, software developers are clever). The idea of executing an app in isolation isn't new – it is known as a sandbox – but every application on your machine should run in a sandbox. Microsoft seems to be the only company actively pursing such measures (they are also the biggest proponent of trying to protect us developers from ourselves, especially when it locks us into their platform). That isn't to say Apple isn't doing something – Apple just isn't talking. And before I get flamed – I'm not tight enough with the Linux community to know if they already have a great solution in the works or not.
The topic of how to teach software developers has been fairly hot lately as well (and ties into the security debate). There is quite the flame war in internet land about my friend "Bjarne's interview in Technology Review.":http://www.techreview.com/InfoTech/17831/ There is also a strong 'counter' "argument (albeit written first) by David Gries":http://csdl.computer.org/dl/mags/co/2006/10/rx081.pdf who I don't know but for whom I have great respect. Although I agree with much of Dr. Gries' article his conclusion is a little stunning – that we should be teaching casting (a way to circumvent a type system) before iteration? I need young developers with a deep understanding of how machines work – not a bunch of misconceptions formed by learning to program on a virtual machine. That's not to say that Java can't have a place in education (my first programming language was Applesoft Basic) but we can't ignore reality – especially not as scientists. I wouldn't presume to tell Dr. Gries what language to teach – but I would ask that he not ignore mathematics and physics in his lessons. I'm certain Dr. Gries' students graduate more knowledgeable and well rounded than his hyperbole suggests.
An amazing thing is that the bulk of the good language research that I see happening these days is happing within the C++ community (okay – I admit that I'm part of this community so that could very well bias my perception). I've worked on large code bases in C++ (Photoshop would be an example) and Java is the language I dreamed about over decade ago as I was learning OOPs. But we built the equivalent of Java in C++ (as have many people) – not quite as pretty but all the basic functionality is there. Reference semantics and garbage collection. Bounds checking and eliminating raw pointers. Deep class hierarchies rooted in a common base object class. Introspection and serialization… And this _was_ a better way to program compared with how we did it before. But then the class hierarchies grew, and the class interfaces grew, and the messaging amongst objects increased. Eventually, we found we had object spaghetti. A vast network of objects and somewhere along the line we'd lost the ability to see the whole picture – it had grown too large to be comprehensible.
Now I'm looking for a better approach. Borrowing from what the functional programmers knew but adding a systematic way to deal with side effects. Borrowing from what mathematicians know about abstraction – axioms, algebraic structures, and theorems but adding the notion of complexity and memory. This is what generic programming is about – and the language of "choice" for generic programming is C++. And it isn't because Alex Stepanov (who is both my friend and colleague) chose C++ for STL ("he worked in Scheme, Ada, and C, before C++":http://www.stepanovpapers.com/ ). It is because C++ got some fundamental things right. For example, like C it has the notion that an array has one more position then elements – a mathematical fact of any sequence which Ada denies. It is because Bjarne allowed C++ to be open enough that it could be used for purposes other than those he could foresee (the idea that templates could be used as a type function certainly wasn't designed). And because he insisted that C++ be backward compatible (a choice that I often argue against) he assured a large community that could grow with those moving from C.
None of this could have happened if the current security experts had a grip on him. If we can hold off those same people from forcing their view that they do _know_ how to write correct software and their job is to protect us from ourselves then some truly great and novel things might just have a chance to develop. My bet is that the great ideas will come from some of those college students that you are kind enough to trust with your personal documents.

Tech news from around the web:
US prosecutors have launched an investigation into whether eBay employees took confidential information from classified ad website Craigslist as it sought to build a rival service, Reuters reports. The two companies have already been fighting in the civil courts over allegations that eBay took a stake in Craigslist and then misappropriated confidential information while it secretly planned its own classifieds site. An eBay spokeswoman told Reuters that the company would co-operate in any inquiry related to the disputes with Craigslist. Read more

My daughter having problems how to let us know that she wants to poop or go to the lu. Please help me how we can change that attitude of her so that next time she want to go to the lu to poop, She can then tell us right away before she poop.
My daughter having problems how to let us know that she wants to poop or go to the lu. Please help me how we can change that attitude of her so that next time she want to go to the lu to poop, She can then tell us right away before she poop.
Dear gladys,
I wonder if you could tell me some more background information on your daughter to date so we can help to support you better with this. Does she do wees in the toilet? Does she sometimes do poos in the toilet? Does she use a toilet (with a toddler seat on top) or a potty? If she has started this process, when did she start?
I've just read an excellent, gentle and respectful article entitled 'Three Simple Steps from Diaper to Potty'. Please do have a read of this article and let me know what you think. What I particularly like about the author's philosophy to this stage is how gentle and unpressurised she is. She tells us to have confidence in our children and they will get there in their own time.
What I think is important is to genuinely praise the times when your daughter poos or wees in the toilet and not worry about the times when she does it in her nappy. In other words, focus only on the positive. We are also at this stage with my son and I sometimes feel pressure for him to meet certain standards at certain times. However, when I take a step back and look at my wonderful toddler I know that he will get there when he is ready. My job is support him and encourage him.
Apart from offering lots of praise another practical tip is to make the bathroom (or room with the potty in) a particularly fun place to be in. Keep special books or toys in this room. Let your daughter come into the bathroom whilst you use the toilet and make this an all round fun, and relaxed, experience.
There's another helpful article here about a gentle approach to transitioning from a nappy. Do you have any relatives with slightly older children that your daughter could watch on the toilet? Children love to learn by copying. Have you started to read enjoyable books with your daughter about the characters using the toilet?
There is a video clip here with Martha Sears talking about tips for toilet training and, again, learning to take the lead from your child.
I sincerely hope that some of these resources are helpful for you and your daughter. Remember - she will get there in the end!
Please do post back and let us know what you think.
Warm wishes,

Cheap 'n' Nasty MP3 PlayerProbability puzzles require you to weigh all the possibilities and pick the most likely outcome.
My MP3 player is cheap 'n' nasty and has now broken: it is stuck on 'Shuffle'. In this mode it starts with whatever track you put it on, but then plays tracks in a random order. The only restriction is it never plays a song that's already been played that day.
I purchased my favourite murder mystery book in audio format, and put the first 6 chapters on my MP3 player. (Each chapter is exactly 1 track.) There's nothing else on my player at the moment. What is the probability that I will hear the 6 chapters in order as I listen today, without having to change tracks at all? (Obviously, I will ensure it plays chapter 1 first.)
The next day I empty the player before putting on the next 6 chapters. This time I also transfer a CD of mine with 11 songs on. I don't mind songs coming in between the chapters of my book, as long as the chapters are in order. What's the probability of that happening now?
AnswerWith only 6 tracks on the player:
The first chapter has been set to play first. The probability of the next 5 chapters playing in order is 1/5! = 1/120.
With the music on the player as well:
Seeing as I don't care about when the music plays, it doesn't change anything. The answer is still 1/120.

Luxury accessory brands must be in mourning: Latterly famous for owning a reported 100 Hermes Birkin bags, Victoria Beckham has switched sides this season from buyer to seller, adding leather (and croc, and lizard, and suede) arm candy to her eponymous brand. It completes her – or, to be specific, it completes her transition to multi-dimensional brand, complete with entry-level aspirational accessories.
Composed of clutches, shoulder bags, and starring a large boxy bag named – yes – the Victoria, which looks like a cross between a Birkin and a shopper, with a flat top closure for easy access (this was smart), the line also includes a large unisex travel bag large enough to fit a football. "I had to make something David could use," quoth the woman who once indirectly dubbed herself Mrs Goldenballs. Perhaps Golden Bags might be a better title, though.

Topic: My Mum
Following a resection last June (2006), and a 6 week stay in hospital afterwards, my Mum (68 years old) has got to enjoy just 5 months cancer free. It is back. She is in Greece. She had a clear scan last November, but went in this week for another check-up. I got a text from her last night saying that they have found a lesion on her liver, and are recommending chemotherapy. I am gutted. That's all the news I have for now. No idea what "lesion" means exactly. And am frustrated, because unlike most of you, my Mum is just SO un proactive as regards dealing with doctors, and all this stuff. I was out there with her In Greece for surgery last year, and it was really difficult to get any information out of the doctors. The level of care was good, don't get me wrong, but when I read posts here, about platelet levels, and all the technical stuff that you all seem to be so clued up on, I knew then, and know now, that we lived in ignorance of any of that kind of stuff. And this will quite likely continue, particularly as I am not there to wheedle the small bits of information that I was able to glean when I was there. I feel very sad and very frustrated.
5 bloody months. Bummer.

New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) In view of the reported damage to foodgrain stocks in central warehouses in cyclone-hit Odisha, Food Minister K.V. Thomas Tuesday rushed a team of officials to coordinate food distribution in the cyclone-affected areas, an official said.
"The minister has asked officials to be in touch with the state government and ensure immediate action in case of any requirement of foodgrain in the cyclone-affected area," said the official in a statement here.
The action was taken after reports that foodgrain stored in central and state warehouses at Jagannathpur and Berhampur were damaged due to cyclone Phailin Sunday.

HUNGRY Marlow school pupils indulged in some serious sandwich science last week as they scoffed their way to creating Subway recipes to go on sale to the public.
Year six at Burford School in Marlow Bottom took a trip to Subway on Spittal Street after owner Erol Ayvaz invited them in to learn more about what goes in to a healthy sandwich.
And after a frenzy of taste testing and calorie counting, staff came back to the classroom to help create and judge the winning designs, which will now go on sale in the Marlow store.
Mr Arvaz said: "I am very keen to get involved with the local community and the big frustration for me is that I used to be a really big lad.
We're trying to educate kids about what they are actually eating - you have to know what is going into it. We have good options and bad but it's about making educated choices.
"We showed them the process from start to finish and it was really good to see the sandwiches they came up with. It was chaos but great fun!
"It's great for the community to see the local school's sandwich on the menu. They were part of something that goes all the way to market and you don't get to see that very often."
Mr Arvaz and his store manager Jason Bastic helped pupils pick the fillings and then come up with a name, design and even packaging ideas.
The winning design came from Dominic Bowers and Amann Bukhari, whose summery Barbeque Heaven design will now get its own place on the Subway menu board over the summer.
Pupils designing other top recipes will be given free sandwiches to enjoy during the summer holidays.
Teacher Sarah Williams said: "One of the modules we have to teach is design and technology involving food, and this makes it a bit of fun having our own Burford Subway.
"As well as food prep, safety and hygiene, there's nutirion and a bit of maths, creativity to come up with names and art creating the logos and packaging.
"It was a great extra-curricular activity."
Mr Arvaz, who also owns the Gerrards Cross and and Beaconsfield Subways, said he is now keen to take the idea to other schools in the area to help get kids eating healthily.

HOUSTON - A car shot through a home at the intersection of Strong Creek and Creek Mountain in northwest Harris County Friday night, authorities say.
A Honda went through the garage door and came out the brick wall on the side of the house. The homeowner was inside but was not hurt.
"The house shook. Major. Sounded like a big explosion. Big boom. And all of a sudden the power went out," said Jack Windham, homeowner. "It's just unreal, you know? You hear about these type of accidents. But you don't think of them happening to you and then you look up and somebody drove through your house."
Firefighters said the driver stopped at a stop sign up the street. They said they believe a medical emergency caused the driver to lose control.
"There is nothing illegal that happened and there is no suspicion that he was under the influence of anything be it drugs or alcohol," said Lt. Matt Cline of the Cy Fair Volunteer Fire Department.
The driver was taken to the hospital. Witnesses said he was conscious when he was put into the ambulance.

Government Center Station
MBTA Contract No. A20PS02
The construction contract is managed by the MBTA Design & Construction Department. The contractor is Barletta Heavy Division (BHD). The design was performed by HDR Engineering, Inc.
Government Center Station reopened on March 21, 2016. The station was reconstructed into a fully accessible, safer, modern, more comfortable facility. The current schedule is summarized as follows:
• Construction Contract Award (NTP): July 2013
• Station prepared for closure (electrical, structural, civil): Fall 2013 through First Quarter 2013
• Roadways and sidewalks reconfigured for closure: November 2013 to Second Quarter 2014
• Station closed for reconstruction: March 2014
• Station re-opened: March 21, 2016
The next major phase of the project over the next six months is the reconstruction of Cambridge/Court/Tremont Streets. This work includes new roadway drainage, relocation of hydrants, installation of street lighting, and traffic signalization. This is followed by full-depth reconstruction of these streets. Remaining punch list work in the station has been and will be ongoing.

Project Description
The Government Center Station Improvements Project (the Project) will combine improvements to the Green Line Station, Blue Line Station, and Cambridge Street/Government Center Plaza, which will enhance Government Center Station, making it fully accessible to all MBTA passengers and in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as well as the Boston Center for Independent Living (BCIL) Settlement Agreement. Up to now, access to and from Government Center Station has been provided solely by a single set of stairways and two escalators.
Bounded by Cambridge, New Sudbury, and Court Streets, the Project is highly visible and vital to the area due to proximity to city, state, and federal government offices, Faneuil Hall, and other historically significant sites, businesses, retail establishments and residential areas.
This Project includes the modernization of a station varying in age from fifty- to 116-years-old to become fully accessible. The Project also makes modifications to achieve improvements for a customer-friendly and efficient station that appropriately serves and conveys the image as a gateway to City Hall Plaza. The Project includes modifications to the plaza area adjacent to the new entrances/exits in order to create an accessible route to Boston City Hall and to the surrounding public sidewalks. The reconfiguration of the plaza surrounding the headhouse is consistent with the City's initiative of greening City Hall Plaza.
Improvements will include renovations to both the Green Line and Blue Line platforms, the introduction of new redundant elevators from the surface to the Green Line level, and from the Green Line level to the Blue Line level, a new headhouse structure as the primary entrance to the Station, a new emergency exit structure on Cambridge Street, improved circulation between the Green Line and Blue Line platforms, and reconstruction of Cambridge Street and City Hall plaza in the vicinity of the station. The Project will also upgrade the station to comply with current applicable code requirements.
Headhouse Design
The design was developed collaboratively with the Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA) with the intent to transform Government Center Station into a fully accessible station with headhouse architecture and engineering that complements the concept of a light, contemporary, and visually transparent glass element. The design intends for Government Center Station to serve as a welcoming beacon, becoming an integral part of the plaza and surrounding buildings that welcome people to the Government Center area. The design of the headhouse was driven by numerous, interrelated factors mainly by the existing station structure located underground. With a goal of providing natural light to the station below, the location of the existing columns and beams dictated both the length and width of the glass element containing the stairs and escalators. The MBTA worked with the BRA to establish an overall height that balances many issues, including the civic scale of Government Center Plaza, the Sears Crescent and Sears Block, the view corridor to the Old North Church, and the visual proportion of the headhouse.
Once completed, entering the station will no longer be limited to the single, plaza-side set of doors. The new headhouse will include six doors around three sides that will reorient the station towards the street while continuing to serve the Plaza and City Hall. Coupled with double the number of fare gates and a new, second stairway, the new headhouse will double the capacity for people entering and exiting. An emergency only exit stair will be constructed on Cambridge Street to bring the station into compliance with modern building code requirements for emergency exits.
Surface Restoration
The Project includes improvements to City Hall Plaza that will create a more sustainable, greener, and pedestrian-friendly Plaza in the vicinity of the Station. The project provides accessible, stair-free paths between the station, public sidewalks, and City Hall.
The surface restoration plan will mitigate the windswept plaza with the introduction of fifty-four new trees, providing summer shade for outdoor gatherings and reducing the heat island effect. The reduction of impervious surfaces at the tree-planting areas on the Plaza will capture and treat storm water on site while reducing storm water runoff leaving the site and entering the harbor. Rainfall captured on the headhouse roof will be diverted to the trees as well.
To complete the accessible walkways to and from the head house, the Project is removing the traffic island at the intersection of Court Street, Cambridge Street, and Tremont Street and replacing it with a T-style intersection. This roadway realignment will provide accessible sidewalks and crosswalks within the limits of restoration. As a result, the sidewalks will be widened and the crosswalks shortened.
Station Work
Despite all of the changes that will take place on the surface, most of the work will really be taking place downstairs in the Green Line and Blue Line stations. One of the challenges faced by engineers is the fact that the two stations do not align in a way that permits direct elevator access from the Blue Line to the surface. The Blue Line platform is actually located below Cambridge Street, requiring the Project to construct two sets of elevators: one set from Blue to Green and the second set from Green to the surface.
In addition, the entire Green Line platform must be raised eight inches to provide accessible boarding on the low-floor Green Line cars. This requirement means that everything that touches the platform, including all of the stairs, escalators, and walls, must be either modified or replaced.
On the Blue Line level of the Station, the elevators can be located in only one place that aligns with the Green Line station above. That location happens to be at the bottom of the main stairs between the two levels, therefore requiring complete demolition and reconstruction of the stairs. The Blue Line platform will also be resurfaced.
The project will also replace the electrical substation to be able to run the elevators and other new equipment, as well as provide upgrades to lighting, communications, and safety systems. New way finding signage will also be installed throughout the station.
Design and Construction Details
Value Engineering (VE), managed by the Owner′s Representative as required by MGL 30/39M.5, was performed in January 2011. The major recommendation of the study was to close Government Center Station to patrons (but allow trains to pass through) for twenty-four months during the construction period by diverting passengers to other nearby stations. Closure/bypass of the station to patrons for twenty-four months during construction eliminates the need for a temporary head house and allows construction to proceed more rapidly, thereby resulting in the overall delivery of accessibility to be achieved earlier. The closure also results in minimization of system delays, improved worker and public safety, and improved construction quality. The recommendation was presented to the MBTA Board of Directors in April 2011. The Board concurred with that recommendation, and design progressed based on the Station being closed as recommended.
The design and the construction staging of the project has been closely coordinated with City of Boston departments, Mass Historic, federal agencies, project abutters, area business groups, and all major departments within the MBTA. Public presentations of the project have taken place at six area locations. (See meeting notifications on the MBTA Public Meetings page.)
Renderings of the proposed head house as well as the plan and cross sections of the proposed Plaza level head house leading down to the Green Line Station are depicted in Figures 1 and 2 below.

Corn futures were mixed to higher Friday morning. The weekly USDA Export Sales report seemed bullish for the yellow grain market. However, nearby corn futures rose only marginally in late-morning trading, apparently due to concerns about Chinese demand after recent GMO-related shipment rejections are still a big factor. March corn futures edged up 0.75 cent to $4.27/bushel around midsession Friday, while May gained 0.75 cent to $4.3525.
The Export Sales data boosted the soy complex. The results of the weekly export report seemed quite supportive of the soy and product markets, although neither the bean nor meal figures were particularly outstanding. However, oil sales jumped to 83,900 tonnes, thereby quintupling the largest pre-report forecast. And yet, oil prices were comparatively weak around midsession. January soybeans bounced 2.75 cents to $13.215/bushel just before lunchtime Friday, while January soyoil rose 0.01 cent to 38.88 cents/pound, and January soymeal added $0.8 to $441.8/ton.
The wheat markets turned lower once again. Improved prospects for South American wheat are threatening to exacerbate the current global wheat surplus. Moreover, U.S. winter wheat fields are in good shape and well-protected from the cold at this juncture. Thus, the dollar rebound exerted fresh downward pressure on golden grain prices. March CBOT wheat futures slipped 2.25 cents to $6.0375/bushel by late Friday morning, while March KCBT wheat futures slid 5.0 cents to $6.395, and MWE futures dipped 4.75 to $6.335.
Cash gains sent cattle futures higher Friday morning. Although traders had apparently been expecting cash firmness today, the actual $2-$3/cwt gains posted by the Southern Plains markets this morning probably exceeded their expectations. Moreover, the CME response seemingly represents a breakout above major trendline resistance in place since mid-October. February cattle futures soared 1.02 cents to 135.17 cents/pound as the lunch hour loomed Friday, while April futures climbed 0.67 to 135.65. Meanwhile, January feeder cattle futures surged 0.92 cents to 167.52 cents/pound, and March zoomed up 1.10 to 168.30.
The cattle surge seemingly pulled hogs higher as well. The prospect of a first-quarter cattle rally probably encouraged bullish hog traders looking for early-2014 strength in the swine/pork complex as well. However, the midday cash and wholesale reports had a decidedly negative tone, which bodes rather ill for afternoon trading. On the other hand, with the quarterly USDA Hogs & Pigs report set for release at 2:00 PM CST, traders are unlikely to trade aggressively from this point. February hog futures ran up 0.40 cents to 85.70 cents/pound in late Friday morning action, and June rose 0.10 to 100.20.
Cotton futures surged in apparent response to Chinese news. Chinese officials announced overnight that they are abandoning their long-standing cotton stockpiling program, which seemed to spark a breakout to the upside. Actually, the announcement might be viewed favorably by both bulls and bears, but bulls are seemingly winning this round. The rise seems doubly impressive in light of the mediocre result on the Export Sales report. March cotton leapt 1.28 cents to 84.17 cents/pound shortly before noon (EST) Friday, while July cotton jumped 1.10 cents to 83.72.

I think giving rets SPECIFICALLY a raid-utility spell would maybe increase our utility as a SPEC. But nonetheless, if we are at the bottom of the charts, raid utilities won't change that.
All of our utility spells are share with prots/hpals, which gives us as a spec no unique raid-bonus utility. We don't even bring our own buff (The 4% physical damage hardly counts).
I think they should bring back Retribution Aura and make it some sort of Raid-benefit CD like Stormlash Totem. Maybe make it return like 50% of the damage taken by all players in the raid to the caster, something that would be extremely useful on a fight such as Heroic Will with the permanent AoE on the ground. If not that, at least make it benefit our dps a slight bit more by some random mechanic.
While I like the idea of bringing back retribution aura the way you described it... uh would be way to OP in pvp.
Much of the ret damage issues are from pvp balance already...
They just need to improve the RAW damage. They keep playing around with burst like it will help anyone when all it's doing is just taking a shit and cleaning it up (Figuratively, that is).
10% CS damage, 20% TV damage, a bit of everything. Then it's all good.
The main thing that i think is keeping Blizzard away from the idea of ever putting rets near the top is the fact that we are a Hybrid Class. It seems like they always want to keep the solid dps classes (Hunters, mages, warlocks and rogues) on top, while randomly just tossing around the Hybrid classes. And usually, we get the short end of the stick. Rarely does a Hybrid class end up on top; and when they do, they get mega nerfed afterwards as "punishment".
The issue with ret "buffing" is that we scale insanely high.
Increase base damage slightly then damage will be higher (duh), haste will be better, mastery will be better and str will be better.
IMO would make more sense to rework our mastery (too late now..) since that's what makes or breaks all of our abilities, or you could mastery only work off finishers and buff the fuck out of mastery scaling so we have a decent finisher and not a wet noodle finisher.
At the moment if they buff anything it seems like it's going to scale out of proportion too quickly, maybe that's what they fear will happen... still doesn't justify that ret is so far behind on single target dps when that's what we're supposed to be "good" at...
If you'd consider it as, let's say, blizzard works around with a spec every tier but buffs it every three. Then rets will only be buff every three tiers, while warriors every 1 or 2, while pure-dps classes EVERY tier.
This is all statistical and based on no real or past patterns. Again, like I said, if you don't agree with me, then so be it.
I completely agree with your idea of our mastery only working on finishers. That would really improve things consistently. I mean TV's don't really hit as hard as the work spent to charge HP up to use it, but this is because blizzard threw mastery onto several spells.

Rets don't scale well nor ever did. Stuff like warriors is what always did tho (current arms aside). So using that as an excuse, to fail and aknowledge the dire straits like early tier11, FL progress, maybe? next tier, is pretty poor understanding of the class mechanics tbh.
What I'm saying is that if they increase the power of one of our abilities now mastery + haste is going to have too much of an effect because everything works of mastery now. I didn't mean that rets scale good on gear like warriors do but our abilities as they are now scale well with stats which makes them hard to balance.
You do know that the 15% hastebuff stays after you wipe right? My guild runs 4 tanks untill we hit P2 so we have extra time to do the platforms before we get 15% haste, after that we run 3 tanks.
Sha rekill night:
-4 tanks + nuke as hard as possible on sha to get to P2 asap.
-Gain 15% haste buff.
-Go 3 tanks + leaving 1 person behind on each platform after the first platform.
Just got back from a break, what should our priority be on gear upgrades? (after weapon of course)

A STUNNING second-half strike from Isaac Vassell gave Weymouth a 73rd minute leveller and earned the Terras a home point in a closely-contested encounter against Hitchin Town.
The result means that Jason Matthews' men have picked up 13 points from a possible 15 and are unbeaten in their last five league games.
Boss Matthews named the same starting XI for the fourth game in a row, and was able to welcome back Scott Walker and striker Mark Ford to the bench following their recent injury problems.
The unchanged Terras were caught napping early on and Hitchin started brightly through captain Callum Donnelly, who fired wide of Matthews' goal with four minutes gone.
Donnelly, who looked lively throughout the contest, then crafted a precise through ball to striker Michael King, whose fierce strike whistled inches wide of the Terras' goal.
As the game then progressed, Weymouth started to settle and managed to fashion their first chance of the contest on the quarter of an hour mark. Striker Stewart Yetton latched on to a ball from deep but miss-hit a tame effort safely into the path of a visiting defender.
In an opening 20 minutes where both sides struggled to put their stamp on proceedings, Hitchin were given a golden opportunity to take the lead when Simon Martin was given acres of space inside the Weymouth area from a corner, but looped his header on to the roof of Matthews' net.
Terras' loanees Jacob Jagger-Cane and Vassell then combined well moments later, but Vassell rolled the ball inches wide of the post.
The Plymouth youngster was then involved once more as he rose above his man on the end of a cross from Yetton, but directed his header narrowly off target from the edge of the six-yard box.
At the other end, player-manager Matthews was then forced into action, pulling off a superb stop diving to his left to deny Donnelly's goal-bound effort from 25-yards out.
The chance of the half came for the visiting Canaries in virtually the last moments of the opening period.
After Steve Colwell found his way into the book and gave away a free-kick on the right flank, the resulting set-piece saw Hitchin defender Alasan Ann have the goal at his mercy from four-yards out, but he somehow could not muster an effort on target as the sides went in deadlocked at the interval.
Controversy then struck as the visitors had a goal disallowed nine minutes into the second half.
After a long throw which the Terras failed to deal with, Donnelly's strike from inside the area looked to be heading into the bottom corner, but striker Simon Martin was adjudged to have handled the ball on its way in and was booked by referee Gary Parsons.
But after surviving their first scare, the Terras were then made to pay on 64 minutes when substitute Matt Lench broke clear and ran on to Donnelly's through ball.
Having only been on the pitch five minutes, Lench showed great composure to calmly lift the ball over the onrushing Matthews and put his side in the lead.
But as the Terras have shown in their recent contests against Burnham, they aren't deterred by going a goal down.
And it was that man Vassell again that got Weymouth level, with a moment of brilliance to score his fourth goal in as many games.
After a ball forward was half-cleared by the visitors' defence, the winger displayed superb technique to rifle the ball home from 25-yards out and level things up.
With both sides pushing forward in search of a late winner, the home fans breathed a sigh of relief one minute from time as Hitchin substitute Gary Wharton was put through and slid the ball past Matthews, only for his effort to trickle narrowly wide of the post.
Terras: Matthews 7, Wells 6 (McConnell, 89), Green 6, Colwell 7 (S Walker 7, 63), Hutchings 7, Richards 7, Kelly 6, Jagger-Cane 7, Yetton 6, Rigg 6, Vassell 8. Subs unused: M Walker, Ford, Holland
Hitchin: Bell, Rolfe, Bickerstaff, Ann, Webb, Pearson, Smith, Donnelly, Martin (Lench, 59), King, Jones (Wharton, 72). Sub unused: Parker

It's been a long day in the reporting of David Wright's negotiations with the New York Mets, and it's only mid-afternoon.
Early this morning, Ken Rosenthal reported that the Mets have offered Wright 6/100, an offer geared toward getting refused.
"The Mets offered Wright a six-year, $100 million contract extension on Monday, according to major-league sources.
"It is an offer that Wright is certain to refuse.
"Wright, who is under contract for $16 million in 2013, prefers a deal of seven years or longer, sources say."
Adam Rubin, however, has a different take.
"The New York Mets have offered a contract extension to David Wright that would keep the All-Star third baseman with the club at least through 2020, a major league source told ESPNNewYork.com.
"The source said Wright had been offered at least a seven-year extension by the Mets, on top of the $16 million he is owed for 2013.
"A second source who has spoken with Mets officials said "they've been really optimistic" an extension will be reached with Wright."
So, which is it? Or is it both, with the phrase "seven-year extension" tied to vesting options, or for less money per season, etc.?
We'll see. Either way, it is better than no news at all, with the winter meetings less than a week away.
UPDATE! Ken Rosenthal has Mets offering seven years, $135-140 million.
This is fair market value for Wright. Now we'll see if Wright wants to stay.

"Let's sue them to stop them from selling every product they make, including ones that don't compete with out products." I may have disagreed with Apple's choice to sue to stop products from being sold, but this is going even farther than that. I am now boycotting the sue happy HTC.
How can you cry like a baby about apple suing others and then turn around and do the same thing? Suck it up, pay apple what is due or not if nothing was infringed upon and move on about your lives. I liked HTC phones over any other android phone but now I despise the company for acting so childish.
LOL @ a taiwanese company suing an american company. this should be considered.
Funny how the same people that praise Apple for trying to get HTC banned criticize and call HTC "haters" for essentially doing the exact same thing back to Apple.
I don't think HTC would bother with a major lawsuit against a major American company if they didn't at least think they had a decent leg to stand on.
well ****, apple was sueing HTC just throwing some random patents hoping some would work. this is the exact same thing.
I would be pissed if I were an HTC shareholder, using funds for this BS suit.
I believe competition is heathy for any market. In my honest opinion, I believe Apple had significant merit to bring about their suit(s) of patent and copyright infringement. As much as we hate Apple's dominancy, you have to admit, Apple created it's own ideas and platform for their mobile operating system (iOS) that revolutionized the mobile world. You would be an idiot to not think HTC (not to mention a few "others") took ideas and GUI looks that Apple already incorporated in their mobile platform (iPhone). Do your homework, its not that hard to notice. I would have to agree with Jobs, competition is great, but be creative and innovative and create your own ideas.Enough is enough.
HTC, Google, Samsung, Motorola, LG all have Android phones that are heavily influenced by the iPhone. However, give credit to where credit is due. If it wasn't for the iPhone, half of these shi**y phones would not be in existence or have any relevance. Apple created a dominant product that has murdered competition in the mobile market world and it is not okay to bite the hand that feeds you. "Hello Moto"...yeah right..."Goodbye Moto". It amazes me how similar Android phone menus (the green "Phone" icon, 4 Panel Swipe Menu, Applications (App Store vs. Market) are to the iPhone. How dare you criticize the creators (Apple) of the device (iPhone/iPad/iPod) you (HTC) based your own product on. Sounds like someone is biting the hand that feeds them.
Sorry people...Apple just fu*king works too well for its own fu*king good.
Thank you apple for the iPhone. Which by the way no carrier would pick up because "who in their right mind would spend that much for a phone." -thank you AT&T.
Apple implemented a touch screen and GUI that was extremely easy to navigate and use, and required no stylist.
Let's just face the facts. No mobile device would be what it is today if not for apple.

Redskins QB Kirk Cousins: 'no doubt' for Week 1
Credit: The Associated Press
ASHBURN, Va. — If Robert Griffin III is "All in for Week 1," what's the status of his backup, Kirk Cousins?
"I was trying to get an 'All in for Week 4 of the Preseason' commercial," Cousins said Monday.
Actually, Cousins isn't likely to play in the Washington Redskins' final preseason game Thursday because of his sprained right foot. He did say there's "no doubt at all" he'll be ready for the opener Sept. 9.
"I do want to play Thursday, but I'd also rather be safe than sorry," Cousins said. "If someone could grant me a wish and tell me I wasn't going to get hurt, or I wasn't going to re-aggravate it, then I would like to get out there."
To that end, Cousins was able to poke fun at Griffin, who launched an "All in for Week 1" campaign with a shoe company in his quest to return from major knee surgery.
"I could get a T-shirt that says 'All in for Week 4 of the Preseason.' That's not quite as catchy, and I don't have an endorsement deal with an apparel company," Cousins said. "Maybe someone will sign me now. I don't make enough money to get fined. Maybe I'll get a deal with some off-brand or something that sells at Walmart or something."
Griffin was fined $10,000 last week for wearing an "Operation Patience" T-shirt before a preseason game, with the NFL calling it "unauthorized apparel." Also last week, by coincidence, Cousins changed out of a Nebraska T-shirt before addressing reporters in the locker room because Nebraska gear is sponsored by Adidas, while the NFL has a deal with Nike.
"It's not worth the risk," Cousins said.
Of course, the fact that it was a Nebraska shirt led to more questions, given that Cousins went to Michigan State. It turns out that the shirt was given to him last year by Redskins teammate — and former Cornhuskers defensive back — DeJon Gomes after Cousins lost a friendly bet.
"I wake up in the morning, usually 6 a.m., and my room's dark, and I just throw something on," Cousins said. "I'm cheap. I just kept it. I like free clothes. ... Adidas made a comfortable shirt. If it didn't say Nebraska, it would be even better."
Cousins was limited in practice Monday and said he was still favoring the foot. He said he could play with a painkilling injection, but there's no point in doing that for a preseason game.
"At most I think this is a two-week injury," he said. "And I injured it three weeks before the opening day, so I've got a lot of time to get healthy."
Griffin is sitting out the entire preseason and hopes to get clearance from his doctor to play in Week 1. He is not scheduled to speak to reporters this week.

"I am so happy with my invitations. The quality of the paper is great...weighty and perfectly textured. The design is so elegant. The only thing I would say is that they are smaller than I expected but I was reading that's that is a good thing as it saves on postage! Service was also prompt and a pleasant experience."
"My fiance and I fell in love with these invitations because of the beautiful trees. The invitation was simple, yet perfect to describe to our guests the feel of our wedding. The invitations turned out beautifully. I gave the Design 4 stars only because there isn't room to add much else - so the wording you see is really all that will fit (which in reality, is probably a good thing so that the invitation doesn't get too cluttered.)"
"We just received our invitations and they are beautiful. The actual invites look even better in person. We loved the purple color, but chose the oranges to fit into our fall winery theme, which it did perfectly. The cards are beautiful and we are so happy with our choice!"
"Such a beautiful design and timeless for weddings. My only feedback it that the design should have offered more automatic colors other than green and brown. While they are not our colors, they still turned out to be beautiful!"
"Not only did I get my invitations within two weeks but everything was correct! So happy with the turn around of my order! Would use WPD again in a heartbeat!"

BABIES, toddlers and youngsters from in and around Basingstoke will be lining up to have their pictures taken over the next few weeks – and one of them will be crowned the Cute Kids 2014 winner.
Gazette Newspapers, The Malls, JJ's, Tesco Chineham and Fraser Portraits have teamed up to stage this year's popular Cute Kids competition – and there will be more venues, and time, than ever before to get in the picture.
As in previous years, there will be three categories – 0 to nine months, 10 to 18 months and 19 to 36 months.
Photographs will be taken:
In The Malls (next to The Works), Basingstoke, from February 1-February 7, from 10am-4pm
In JJ's, in Morse Road, on February 8 and 9, from 10am-4pm
In Tesco, Chineham from February 13-15, from 10am-4pm
Entry to the competition is by original voucher only. One is printed in this week's Gazette, and others will be printed in upcoming editions.
Parents or adult relatives or carers who accompany youngsters to the photo sessions must take a voucher along to have one child's sitting done free of charge.
The photos will then be available to view, and orders can be placed to purchase, when Fraser Portraits return to put the pictures on display in The Malls from February 12-14, JJ's on February 13 and 14, and Tesco in Chineham from February 19-20.
Parents or carers can also choose which individual photo appears in our Cute Kids 2014 picture special.
This year, the Cute Kids special will appear in The Gazette of March 13 – and then readers will have the chance to vote for their favourites.
The readers' votes will determine the shortlist of finalists, and the winners and runners-up in each category will then be chosen by a panel of judges.
There will also be an overall winner – so all of this year's contestants will be bidding to follow in the footsteps of last year's overall champ Amelia Gardner.

Katie Farrell made a last-minute decision to join the Greater Princeton City Golf Open over the weekend when she canceled a scheduled lasik surgery ... she was glad she did. However, she had her doubts Saturday at Wyaton Hills when she wasn't exactly seeing things straight.
The reigning champion of the Illinois Valley Women's Golf Open trailed Wyaton's own Ann Lusher by six strokes at the turn. Farrell was turned topsy-turvy navigating the unfamiliar course, bottoming out with an 8 on the Par 3, No. 3 hole.
"It's been long time since I played at Wyaton. I really struggled through the first nine. That Par 3 got me good," she said. "Once I got through the first nine and got to look at the course, I dropped 10 strokes. That helped. Of course, Sunday playing at Hunter's Ridge, I kind of know every turn and twist."
She cooked on her home course, firing a 77 over the final 18 holes to run off to the title by 16 strokes over Lusher.
Danny Nelson ran away with the men's title, shooting a 71 Saturday at Wyaton Hills and coming back with a 7-under 68 at his home course at Hunter's Ridge for a 139 total. Kurt Towne finished second at 155 (76-78).
Nelson said he didn't have a lot of expectations, since he hasn't played a lot of golf this summer.
"It always seems like early spring when you break out your clubs for the first time and hit the balls pretty good. Then you keep playing and playing and get worse, one of those things," he said. "I didn't have much expectations. You just play your game and things happen."
Nelson, 25, was glad to see the tournament resurrected after 21 years and wants to keep it going.
"I think it's a good thing. I'd definitely like to have it next year," he said. "I was talking to guys like Bill Grotti who said it was a big deal back in the day, and I'd like to get it back to the way it used to be."
Farrell, like Nelson, a past BCR Golfer of the Year, also said she enjoyed playing with the ladies, and said if the price was right; she'd do it again.
Scott Lilley (163) won A Flight with Bob Hartwig (168) taking second. Scott Underwood (182) arrested the field in B Flight while John Baldridge (162) claimed the Senior Flight.
Chip shot: Max Halberg Jr. of Wyaton Hills said next year's tournament is tentatively set for Aug. 3-4.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/9/2012 (1812 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and being surprised by the same result, then Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Tim Burke had to do something dramatic this week.
And so it was no surprise when Burke delivered just that on Wednesday, revealing that veteran cornerback Jovon Johnson -- who made CFL history in 2011 when he became the first defensive back to ever be named the league's Most Outstanding Defensive Player -- is now a linebacker.
What did come as a bit of a shock was that Burke revealed his team's 2-7 record and epic 52-0 defeat last Sunday in Regina that led to Wednesday's dramatic personnel move is perhaps the least of his problems right now.
Because it turns out Burke has what sounds like a small insurrection on his hands in the Bombers locker-room.
"I talked to the team about we've got to get rid of the negative atmosphere here," Burke told reporters after the team held it's first full practice this week in preparation for Sunday's Banjo Bowl rematch with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
"Whether there's some carry-over from Paul being dismissed or whether it's the four road games in a row or the stadium -- whatever the negativity is, we've got to get over that and move on to the positives and feel good about ourselves. And go out there and feed on each other's energy."
Burke's comments are the first time anyone in Bombers management, including former head coach Paul LaPolice, has suggested delays in getting the team into its new stadium this season and the four-game road trip to start the year that was precipitated by those delays may have created some hard feelings within the team and had a negative impact on the field.
"What would it have been like," Burke wondered when he was further pressed on the issue by reporters, "if, OK, we had come home after four games to this brand-new stadium and maybe there might have been some energy from that -- who knows?" said Burke. "It's hard to tell."
That was, of course, precisely the revised plan Bombers management had in mind when they agreed last winter to a month on the road to open the 2012 season, only to announce later even that wasn't going to help and the entire 2012 season was going to have to be played at the derelict Canad Inns Stadium.
Burke was asked directly on Wednesday if players had been openly complaining about some of the organization's myriad failings off the field this season.
"I think so, a little bit," Burke replied. "I just told them -- that's got to stop. And it's up to your teammates to hold you to that standard that we're not going to do that kind of stuff. I challenged the leadership to take charge of that and nip it in the bud. If there ever is any more, let's get it out. And then I'm going to handle it if it gets to me."
So how will you handle it, Burke was asked. The head coach spent a few moments searching for an answer, although it wasn't clear if it was because he didn't immediately have one or because he wanted to be careful how he framed it. In the end, he went with: "I have my ways."
He'd better. Burke was promoted to replace LaPolice in part because he promised to bring a new accountability to a team that had very little of it in the previous feel-good regime.
In a season in which his team generally -- and his defence in particular -- have played soft, it's looking increasingly like Burke is going to have to start cracking some heads before his players ever do.

Larson Electronics Announces Addition of Multi-Mode LED Light with Remote Control
Larson Electronics has announced the addition of an innovative LED light designed to provide multiple color choices and remote control operation. The LED18W-PAR38-RGB 18 Watt RGB LED PAR 38 Remote Control LED Light offers 16 color options, flashing, dimming, and high or low light output, and is designed to work with any common light fixture fitted with E26 bulb sockets.
The LED18W-PAR38-RGB 18 Watt RGB LED PAR 38 LED Light from Larson Electronics provides a highly versatile and durable LED lighting solution designed for users who desire multi-color functionality in a remotely controlled system.
This LED lamp features a PAR38 design which allows it to work with most standard light sockets, allowing users to simply unscrew and replace common outdoor floodlights and interior bulbs. Operating features include a handheld remote control which allows the user to control all the functions and modes from up to 25 feet away, making this LED light ideal for installation in hard to reach areas.
Functions include on/off control, the choice of 16 different light colors, and the ability to produce a constant on state, a fast or slow flash, strobing effects, color fade, and dimming. This light is far more versatile and durable than traditional halogen floodlights and produces 950 lumens in white color mode while using only 18 watts of power.
For comparison, a typical halogen floodlight will produce only 850 lumens while using 50 watts of power. Additionally, since this unit is LED, it is highly resistant to damage from vibration or impacts, produces whiter cleaner light output without any yellow or reddish tint in white mode, and will operate for 50,000 or more hours before requiring replacement compared to the 500-1000 hour average of an incandescent or halogen bulb. These PAR38 LED lights are ideal for specialty applications and well suited for landscape or signage illumination where operators prefer to be able to alter color and on/off operation to achieve unique effects. These units are also well suited to commercial and industrial use where an operator requires specific light colors for specialized tasks and provides the ability to switch to normal illumination whenever desired.
Larson Electronics offers a wide selection of LED work lights, LED light towers, explosion proof LED lights, intrinsically safe LEDs and LED work lights. The entire Larson Electronics line of industrial grade lighting equipment can be viewed by visiting them on the web at Larsonelectronics.com. You can also call 1-800-369-6671 to learn more about all of Larson Electronics lighting products or call 1-214-616-6180 for international inquires.

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase (JPM), is smug, arrogant whiner. I don't know if he reads Real Money, but I really hope he sees this and wants to tangle with me, because I'm champing at the bit.
By all measure, Dimon should be in big-time hot water, or better yet, on trial. He blatantly violated Sarbanes-Oxley when he, as CEO, signed off on JPMorgan reports that basically swore that his bank's internal controls were up to snuff. Then, when the bank lost billions in a bungling speculative trade, which could have put the entire banking system in jeopardy -- again -- and possibly even resulted in taxpayers being called upon for another outrageous bailout, he said those internal controls were "not adequate."
You lied, Jamie.
That's a prosecutable offense.
Where is the SEC? Where is the Justice Department?
Yesterday he gave us another display of his arrogance. It was on a conference call with bank analyst Mike Mayo. Mayo simply asked Dimon if depositors would be more inclined to put their money into banks that have higher capital ratios, given the current cautious environment. Mayo made the comparison between UBS (UBS), a bank that has a 13% capital ratio, and JPMorgan, which has a 10% capital ratio. And what was Dimon's response to Mayo? "That's why I'm richer than you."
That's why I'm richer than you? Are we in kindergarten, Jamie?
People laughed. The whole room laughed. OK, maybe Mayo's question was a bit like nitpicking, but come on ... it was like the bully in the class picking on the weak kid, and everyone else in the class laughs, too, because they're also afraid of the bully. I never laughed. I was never afraid of the bully.
Now I'm sticking up for Mayo. If I were on that call, I would have asked Dimon why he lied on his company's reports and why he thinks he's been able to avoid prison. I wouldn't care one iota if I were banned from ever attending another JPMorgan conference call, even if that meant losing my job. That's just me.
Jamie Dimon is an arrogant whiner. He's still where he is today because he's got protection. His chief counsel is Stephen M. Cutler, who used to be the head of enforcement at the Securities and Exchange Commission. With a guy like that on your team, it's a lock that the SEC won't bring any action.
Good work, Dimon. Most hardworking Americans didn't have that kind of protection, and as a result, they lost. The hardworking people of this country lost $22 trillion of their savings when the banks went on a spree of insane risk-taking and massively fraudulent lending. Those very taxpayers were then called upon to step in and stabilize an economy that the bankers had just destroyed, and to save their institutions. Do you know what Dimon's response to the people was? It was, "Don't blame us, blame yourselves for choosing the government you have chosen."
Unbelievable arrogance, that's all I can say.
There's probably no chance that Dimon will read this, but boy, I wish he does. I feel like going mano-a-mano.

Crystal Palace take on Preston in the Capital One Cup this evening and boss Dougie Freedman is going all out to win the tie.
The Eagles beat Exeter City 2-1 in the first round and now travel to the Deepdale, their second away trip of the competition, and are hoping to be in the hat for the third round.
After a long trip to Middlesbrough at the weekend, the team are clocking up the mileage and will have travelled more than 980 miles in the space of four days.
Freedman said he doesn't think of the mileage as an excuse and instead said it was more of a pain for the loyal Eagles fans rather than his team.
"It is the fans I take my hat off to. The fans who travel up to Middlesbrough then again to Preston, they follow us up and down the country," he said.
"We get to travel in luxury now. We go on planes, trains and coaches and get it all paid for so no complaints from us.
The Palace boss said his side will not be resting on their laurels for the game, and are desperate to recreate the cup magic from last year.
He said: "We will take the strongest squad possible. We don't have the luxury to pick and choose. We have a few injuries but we take this cup seriously as we were a penalty kick away from the final last year.
"We won a lot of hearts last year when we played in the cups so we will take a strong squad.
"It was only just over a year ago we were playing Preston in the same division so it will be a very difficult game and we have to be right at it."
