Thread: Cloud storage / backup?
Cloud storage / backup?
The recent thread on the (un)reliability of SSD drives (and other HDDs) got me thinking about cloud backup/storage options. A lot of people in that thread said they used them.
I've always been a bit wary of them. Mainly for privacy / hacking reasons. Given the number of high-profile sites that have gotten hacked over the last few years, I kinda adopted a policy of only putting things online that I don't mind being public.
So that has meant no real use of cloud backups.
But on the other hand, they would provide a nice layer of backup against anything happening to my PC in the real world.
(I have a usb HDD backup, but if there is a fire / break in then I'd imagine that would be gone too.
So it's the risk of hacking vs the risk of local incident.
I actually do have some things in the cloud. Steam for many games. Google music for, er, music. But none of those are private.
I also have accounts at a few cloud storage providers (30gb skydrive, 50gb tresorit, 6gb sugarsync, etc..) from various offers. But I don't really use them for anything I worry about losing, just for sharing/syncing. So they are mostly empty right now.
So, what do people think? Safer to have an online backup (for things like photos), or safer to keep them offline?

Cloud storage is different. These services take a portion of your hard drive and synchronize it with the online storage. Make changes on the hard disk and they are quickly replicated to the cloud storage.

I use Crashplan, but I let it sync to my Pogoplug. The data stays mine. It's not cloud, but it does work and is internet accessible.
I'm new to the field, but would there be any upload speed issue? I mean, if I back up at a USB2.0 portable HDD, for 4GB thingy it generally takes me 15 mins, I express much more time would be required for uploading to Internet?
It depends on your upload speed. Most people are using cloud storage for small files and documents I think, something that will take a second or two to upload."Halo is designed to make the player think "I look like that, I am macho sitting in my undies with my xbox""

The main risk would seem to be corrupted data getting replicated across.
As online 'backup' providers must also sync regularly, is the main difference that they keep previous versions. Or that you have finer control over the scheduling?
Given that I have 80gb of free cloud storage, i'm reluctant to sign up to a monthly fee for a cloud backup provider.
I guess i'm mainly interested in whether people feel it's safer or more risky to have all your private photos, videos, documents in the cloud.
I get that a lot of sites like SpiderOak and Tresorit seem to market themselves on security, but given some of the high profile hacks (and the Snowden related stories), I worry that these big cloud storage sites must be a hugely tempting target, and it just takes one small mistake on their part to let hackers get in. Maybe.

It really depends on what kind of service you use. Some only allow you to manually upload files, some sync specific files, some sync folders, etc.
Personally, I use Spideroak as it supports basically every kind of back-up these days. I have the Hive folder which operates like Dropbox and I use that for things I want to transfer to my tablet or quickly transfer between systems. Then I manually back-up a lot of folders (game saves, personal documents, work documents that are not sensitive, etc) and have a few syncs set up among those. And you get a decent number of gigs free and can usually get a few more just by paying attention to the blog (I have 21 gigs and never spent a single penny).
But the thing to remember is this: Be aware of what you are syncing. Anything truly sensitive should have an extra layer of encryption. I sync my passwords in a file between systems, but that file is a KeePass Database so that, if my SpiderOak is compromised, the hacker can't do much without a LOT of effort. I also store tax info and legal documents in my personal folder, but I keep that in a TrueCrypt for the same issues. Whereas I really don't give a shit who has access to my music library, so I just use Google Play Music for that.
Imagine you are in a hotel where every single room uses the same key. That is Lavabit's model.
While there is a bit of murkiness regarding how Spideroak works. Allegedly only you have the keys to your files and it is based off your password and SpiderOak can't recover your password, but I do recall (a few years ago) an idiot friend of mine forgetting his password, getting it reset, and having his files. But either way, regardless of if SpiderOak can access your files, they already do what should be expected of them: Each user has their own key for their own files. So if a warrant comes down because JimmyJohn_420 is a pedophile, only JimmyJohn_420's files can be accessed by law enforcement,
No service is 100% secure. Law enforcement around the world can always get their equivalent of a warrant and The Big Bad NSA/Super Script Kiddies can hack into your account. But here is the thing: People are inherently lazy, and there are MUCH easier and MUCH more important targets out there. Maybe The Big Bad NSA can hack your computer, but why would they want to? Maybe DarkWhiteHat_69 can hack into your truecrypt and get your SSN, but why would he waste his time on you?
It is the same issue as with personal home security. A lot of people just need a deadbolt on the door and don't care beyond that (think Dropbox). Anyone with a lockpick and a few minutes can break into that. Others prefer to have a home security system. It doesn't take much googling to figure out how to bypass those. And some people go all out and have a custom home security system and keep guns around the house. It is all a matter of effort versus return. If someone wants to get in, they will. All of this is a deterrent to make them say "I'll go home invasion/rape the neighbor, she only has a bulldog"
The key is to use a reputable service and to be aware of what you are syncing. Always assume that nothing is unhackable and consider what the failure case is. At the bare minimum, if you want a "secure" system, make sure that their method encrypts your data at the individual level so that you won't be affected if a warrant/subpoena is issued for someone else. If something is sensitive, add a local encryption (Keepass works on Windows, Linux, and Android. And probalby Mac/iphone. And Truecrypt works on Linux and Windows and probably Mac). And so forth.
So why, you may ask, would you want to use a cloud service at all if they are all inherently insecure? Because those cloud services are a lot less likely to fail (hard drives and burned CDs aren't permanent...) and you aren't completely fucked if your home burns down or gets flooded. You can avoid a lot of those issues by doing an offsite back-up (have a trusted friend hold the spare HDD), but even that can fail if your trusted friend isn't as security conscious.
And keep this in mind: a few months back I was watching one of those "thief-proof your house" reality shows where they have a real (former) thief break into people's houses to show them how shitty their security is (and then brag about how the new security system really DOES make them thief-proof even though the issue is still that the morons don't lock their windows...). And when they were looting the "tech savvy" guy's house, the thief pointed out how he instantly goes for any spare HDDs or discs he sees in a cabinet or closet if the person looks "smart", because odds are that contains all of your personal information and is VERY easy to carry out. Laptops might have GPS devices and anti-theft systems (and are things that raise flags at the more reputable pawn shops). Desktops are heavy as hell. External drives and discs are VERY light and the drives can be pawned with no questions asked if there isn't anything good on it. And, even better: People are smart enough to cancel their credit cards if the physical card has been stolen. Criminals have a LOT more time if they get the number.Steam: Gundato

If you want me on either service, I suggest PMing me here first to let me know who you are.
Interesting, kind of what I thought.
But whereas it's unlikely a hacker will go to the trouble of hacking an individual PC, it seems much more likely that they'd target a massive online file store.
I also have my sensitive docs in a Truecrypt file, and my passwords in a Keepass file. But my main concern is photos. I have thousands of pics of family, kids, etc.. and i really don't want to lose them, but I also really don't want them spread around the world.
Skydrive is the easiest to sync them to (though I only have 30gb there), but I'm not sure about their privacy/security. (though they did say they'll be 'best in class' by the end of this year, in response to the Snowden / Hacking revelations of last year.
Tresorit say they can't access your files and things are encrypted locally first. (Have 50gb there due to opening offer)
But in all cases you are basically trusting that they are (a)honest and (b)competent.
So, I agree on the idea of encrypting locally before uploading.. but that makes things much less smooth and user-friendly, and I'm not sure the easiest way to do it for thousands of photos. (trucrypt needs a fixed file size, right? and then it'd be a massive 50gb file to upload/download anyway).
And a system that is inconvenient/manual is one i probably won't use.
It occurs to me that the easiest way for the bad guys / nsa to get your data would be to simply set up lots of legit-looking cloud storage / vpn services and then let you give them all your data.
We tend to find these services through places like Lifehacker, but blogs don't seem to do much research and background checking into legitimacy... so you end up with well known services.. but we don't really know who is behind them. (exacerbated by the fact that many of them base themselves overseas to avoid US data requests, but that then makes them even more obscured).
(Tresorit, for example, seems legit, but could be run by a bunch of hackers / russian mafia for all I know).
(box.net is another very popular one, that seems to be used by a number of big companies, but i think i read something about their android client sending/storing all passwords in plain text... (maybe wrong on the details, but it was definitely a basic security flaw))
Well, that is one reason I use Spideroak as it is one of the most well known ones and, at the very least, they are becoming very active in educating people about security. We obviously won't know what is REALLY going on until they actually open source this year, but it would be a pretty elaborate con.
As for your photo issue: If memory serves, the latest truecrypt versions support expanding storage, but I don't know how the syncing would work with that (if it does diffs you are okay. if it just redownloads...)Steam: Gundato

I've spent an inordinate amount of time playing with various backup solutions - I change my methods fairly often - I've had to disaster recover a few times - my 10p would be
1 - EVERYTHING you're actively working-on should be in a 'live cloud backup' folder (I use Dropbox for development and Google Drive for photos) - it's idiotic not to do this, especially as it's mostly 'free'.
2 - You should also use a 'periodic backup' solution (I use Crashplan - a paid account with cloud storage) to backup both your work (as above) and things like your c:\user and c:\programdata folders (game saves!!)
3 - Finally, you should occasionally image (I use Macrium Reflect Free) for recovery in the event of hardware failure Unlike the other 'cloud' backups, images are stored locally because 20-30Gb isn't really practical to upload (til I convince her-indoors we need fibre!!)
That way I have the option of using Dropbox to get back individual files (and access those files on other devices) - Crashplan to roll-back entire folders to a point-in-time (and to a different location if I wish) and Reflect will bring back an entire drive (or I can just mount the image as a 'virtual drive' to compare content etc.)
The only solution I'm not 100% happy with nowadays is Dropbox. I think they're greedy in terms of their paid options, mean in their free space, stupid in the way they penalise people who share content BUT they're becoming quite ubiquitous to the point that not having a Dropbox account would lock-you-out of useful things (e.g. Android Backups to Dropbox etc.)
If anyone wanted to talk-me-into a better 'live' backup tool - I'm all ears tho (esp as I lose 48Gb of Dropbox space in 3 months time!!)

If you have a machine to run it on, OwnCloud is an open source Dropbox replacement, with no space limitations and without compromising your data by trusting someone else to store it for you.

The problem with "running your own cloud" is that it's not going to be a 'cloud' - it's going to be a PC which is in your house or a relatives house or a friends house, rather than a nice, secure, protected data-center - which makes it much less useful.
Unless you're hoarding child porn or planning terrorist activity, I cannot figure what people are worried about in terms of privacy either. In a world where TBs of data are uploaded every day, the 'encrypted' stuff is the only stuff anyone will want to read - uploading unencrypted content is like 'blending into a crowd' - odds of you being noticed diminish enormously.
The key to backup is replication - keeping as many copies as you can in as many places as possible - the cloud is a cheap option and you'd be a berk not to make some use of it.
I hate to keep bringing up the Project Zomboid thing but that was a textbook example of people being dumber than cheese - if it's worth making, it's worth taking a copy of it - or ideally about 10 copies of it.
Grr. Been using Sugarsync for 3 years. This morning it popped up with a message saying my "free trial" had expired.
Seems they've changed their business model and not bothered informing me.
(Despite the fact that I "earned" my free storage by refering people to them, etc..). Seems like a VERY dodgy tactic to me. So I'm looking for a new simple way to sync Keepass and photos from android to desktop.
Sigh. I'd have really recommended them before this...

So, is Dropbox my best bet on android for a simple automatic way to send photos to my PC? And to sync keepass, wallpapers and ebooks?
Personally I use SkyDrive but maintain on-site portable HDD backups too. I wouldn't rely on one or the other.Nalano's Law - As an online gaming discussion regarding restrictions grows longer, the probability of a post likening the topic to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea approaches one.
Soldant's Law - A person will happily suspend their moral values if they can express moral outrage by doing so.


text: Actress Katrina Kaif, like any other actresses in Bollywood, wore a bikini in Boom but she refrained from wearing it again since then. However, she should wear it again or loss out a big banner film. It is said that Yash Raj Films is adamant that she appears in a two-piece cloth in its forthcoming film Dhoom 3 or walk out of the film.Sources said that Katrina is in dilemma whether to sign Dhoom 3 or not, as her role has two bikini scenes. The actress has apparently raised question on the bikini scenes. The makers of the film have made it clear that they wouldnt do away with the scenes but have assured the actress that they would shoot in an aesthetic manner.It is said that the makers of the film are eyeing a newcomer in case Katrina turns down the role. So, it will be her loss even if she turns it down for the bikini scenes. Dhoom 3, to be directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, also features Aamir Khan.

The promise of anywhere access when on the go is old hat, promised but not delivered by all sorts of providers for more than a decade. How long have you heard about Wi-Fi on airplanes, Wi-Fi hotspots wherever you travel for business, municipal Wi-Fi, and so on?
Finally, that promise is starting to surface, as I was reminded in the last month when I traveled to several cities for various events. But the rough spots are still there, and wireless access is still very much a crapshoot when you're on the road.

First the good news: It is easier to connect via Wi-Fi from your laptop, smartphone, or iPad. In fact, iPads are showing up in traveler circles fast. A colleague noted last week that in his cross-country flight's business-class section, there were two iPads, two iPhones, two or three BlackBerrys, a couple MacBooks, and a Windows laptop in use. Aircell, which provides in-flight Wi-Fi service, says iPads already account for 2.5 percent of devices that access its service.
I was pleasantly surprised, for example, that the Long Beach (Calif.), Phoenix, San Diego, and Seattle-Tacoma airports all offer free Wi-Fi access in their gate areas, as does the JetBlue terminal at New York's JFK; San Francisco International is promising to follow suit soon. (And a tip for travelers: The Apple Store provides free Wi-Fi access, so if you're in signal range, you can save some money. Many McDonalds and Jack in the Boxes offer free Wi-Fi access as well.)
Although not free, nearly all the flights I took offered in-air Wi-Fi access via the Gogo service from Aircell. Hotels have been offering in-facility paid Wi-Fi for several years now, and most airports offer paid Wi-Fi service. I found it in Atlanta, Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena (Calif.), Dallas-Fort Worth, and Los Angeles International from a hodgepodge of providers in trips this year.
Not only is Wi-Fi essential for data access, it can be a lifesaver for making calls using VoIP on your smartphone or laptop when overseas or in an area where the phone roaming charges are high. It's also often essential to download large files or access streaming media -- activities that cellular 3G services often prohibit or discourage.
The Hodgepodge of Services Ups the Hassle Factor and the Cost
Now the bad news: Mobile Wi-Fi is a hodgepodge, which means separate charges at each spot in most cases. As an egregious example, the Ritz-Carlton in Phoenix charges $10 per day for Wi-Fi access, but that access does not extend to its meeting rooms, for which a separate signup (and fee) is required. The Ritz-Carlton also won't let you have more than one device at a time access its wired or Wi-Fi connections -- a hugely annoying restriction if you want to keep both your laptop and your smartphone or iPod Touch up to date. I found the same per-device scheme at the Hilton in Universal City, Calif. -- and it's Wi-Fi signal doesn't extend into its conference space.
And have you noticed that the pricier the hotel, the pricier the Wi-Fi service? Motel 6 charges $4, while the W (at least in Seattle) and Marriott (at least in Plano, Texas) each charges $15 -- though none of these hotels limit you to one device at a time as the Ritz-Carlton and Hilton do.
Although I have an AT&T Wi-Fi hotspot subscription, it's the basic plan, so roaming is not permitted at airport locations from other airport providers (it does work at AT&T's airport locations). But I can roam on those same providers' Wi-Fi hotspots when I'm at non-airport locations. Likewise, if you have a T-Mobile Wi-Fi plan with your cell phone or a subscription for your laptop, the same lack of airport roaming exists for those airports that don't use T-Mobile's Wi-Fi service. It's a nightmare for travelers, accounting, and IT to track, manage, and support all these variations.
You or your business can easily spend $50 to $100 for Wi-Fi on a short trip if you pay for access at the airports, flights, and hotels you patronize. That's highway robbery. One option is to get a 3G card for your laptop, which costs $60 to $100 per month, and avoid the per-site Wi-Fi fees. Of course, you can easily exceed the bandwidth limits and pay a lot more, and you can't use cellular devices on airplanes. Connections are often much slower than with Wi-Fi, which can make large downloads and streaming media access impossible. And you need to pay separately for 3G data access on your smartphone, another $30 to $40 per month. Plus, PDAs such as the iPod Touch are marooned when you're out of Wi-Fi range. Still, a 3G card takes much of the hassle and pickpocketing of Wi-Fi signup at hotels and airports and cafés and can make sense for laptop-toting frequent travelers.
Another aspect of the hodgepodge problem is that the various Wi-Fi providers don't always get the fact that the computing world is heterogeneous. I can never connect to T-Mobile's airport service from my MacBook -- the server address won't resolve -- but I have had no problem connecting at the same airports (Dallas and San Francisco most recently) with my iPod Touch or Lenovo Windows laptop.

Cars 3 opened this weekend, and judging by its box office numbers ($53.6 domestic), a lot of people saw it, including yours truly. But enough of the intro, here is my 10-second, spoiler-free review: Go see it. It's good enough to make you forget that that steaming pile of crap known as Cars 2 ever existed. Cars 3 is spiritually the true sequel to the original movie and makes a fine movie-going experience. While the Cars franchise isn't ranked very highly by most Pixar fans or movie critics alike, it is one of my favorites and this one does not disappoint. (read more)

Pros: Lots of good minifigures for the price. They are great, and to get Luke, Ben, R2, 3PO, and a Stormtrooper with black pauldron and backpack in a $25 set is outstanding.
Cons: Not many pieces for the price.
Comments: It's been awhile since a Landspeeder has been around. I've been collecting since '07 and this is the first one that I've been able to get. The design is pretty good and simple. I can see why kids would love this set. Some of the minifigs can only be found in other, more expensive sets.
- meeotch writes:
Pros: Best official Landspeeder incarnation, best set in its wave
Cons: Hard to find, I'm not sold on the way the stripped down engine was made
Comments: I thought that the set was beautiful. Since I didn't have any of the earlier Landspeeders, this filled a hole in my collection, and upon comparison to the others, I definitely feel that this captures a nearly perfect balance between being "LEGO-y" and accurate. My one gripe is with the port nacelle, and think it looks much better by simply removing the dish affixed to the front. The minifigs push this set out of the spendy category and into the good-value category, especially considering the current pricing trends with LEGO on the whole and licensed themes in particular.
- ted @ndes writes:
Pros:5 minifigs (and of desirable SW characters), diverse parts, lots of tan/red

Comments:For the parts you do get in this set, there is a really good variety IMO; grilled cheese, dark red tiles/slopes/cheese, tubes, dishes, 4 saber handles, curved windscreen, wall tiles, boat tiles, engines, etc. Those parts, in those colors, have just filled a lot of gaps for me... Despite the potential for more "value" in an unlicensed set (like Pharaoh�s Quest ), the variety in the 8092 landspeeder set is what scratched my immediate parts itch... and for a licensed SW set, that surprised me a bit. On the build itself, I guess I'm a bit biased towards the smooth/tiled surfaces I see in MOC's all the time. Would have been nice to have a smoother top surface, but I undertand the existing part limitations (and definitely not asking for another BURP-type pannel out of TLG)

Pros: 5+ figs, quick and easy build. great looking. nice play value with the necessary figs for a quick game of "these are not the droids..."
Cons: none at this price point, except perhaps as noted before, the large amount of Danish air. mmmm... Danish.
Comments: do the math however you like...if you want to put the price of a fig at $3 (CMFs are $2.99, build a fig in store is $10 for 3) then the figs alone are $15. $10 for a speeder is nice. OR battle packs are half this price with only four figures + a dinky mini-vehicle of some sort. so for $12 extra you get another minifig + IMO the best of the 3 landspeeders so far. the flex tube (also in the 4501 version) is nice, but it's the curved windscreen that takes it over the top. the trooper's pack & pauldron are a nice touch too.

MILAN, July 20 (Reuters) - Political instability could undermine Italy's ability to exit its longest post-war recession, the head of the country's central bank said on Saturday.
"This is a critical phase," Bank of Italy governor Ignazio Visco told a Moscow meeting of ministers and central bankers from the Group of 20 nations.
"There is a stability issue, also from a political point of view, which affects the (country's) ability to pursue opportunities for recovery," Visco said according to quotes provided by his spokeswoman.
A failure to kick-start the Italian economy could dent Rome's chances of cutting a public debt which, at 130 percent of gross domestic product, is the second biggest in the euro zone after Greece.
The government survived a no-confidence motion against the interior minister on Friday, averting a crisis which could have brought down a fragile coalition formed only three months ago.
The Bank of Italy forecasts a contraction of Italian gross domestic product of 1.9 percent this year and expects a timid recovery to start at the end of the year.
Visco sounded more upbeat about the health of the Italian financial system but asked the country's lenders to further boost their capital base.
The results of a stress analysis conducted by the International Monetary Fund at the beginning of this year "showed the resilience of the Italian banking system against external shocks", Visco said.
"Of course capital base is fundamental and needs to be enlarged, but there are no sign of excessive concern" for the country's financial system, said the central banker.
The Bank of Italy forced the country's lenders to raise their provisions against bad debt some months ago as the long recession translates into an increasing burden of problematic loans for the banks.
The recent decision by Standard and Poor's to downgrade Italy's sovereign rating to 'BBB' was not consistent with the country's fundamentals, Visco said. (Reporting by Francesca Landini and Alessandra Prentice; Editing by Mark Potter)

AKRON, Ohio - Tiger Woods withdrew from the Bridgestone Invitational on the ninth fairway in Sunday's final round at Firestone Country Club after reinjuring his back on the second hole.
Woods, an eight-time champion of the event, told a PGA Tour representative that the injury occurred on his second shot on No. 2 when he fell back into the bunker.
"I just jarred it and it's been spasming ever since," Woods said. "It's just the whole lower back. I don't know what happened."
Woods said the spasms got progressively worse as he continued. On No. 9, he hit his drive down the right side of the fairway and was grimacing as he bent down to pick up his tee. He walked up the fairway and got almost to his ball when he stopped and was driven to the parking lot in a golf cart.
Woods was in visible pain as he removed his golf shoes in the parking lot, bracing himself against the open hatch of his tournament SUV.
Woods was playing in his third event since March 31 back surgery. He was scheduled to leave Akron Sunday night for Louisville, Ky., where he was to play in next week's PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club. The last time the PGA was held at Valhalla in 2000, Woods won in a three-hole playoff with Bob May.
Asked what his back injury might mean for next week, Woods said, "I don't know. Just trying to get out of here."

American Art Road Trip
July 9, 2010
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
One of my favorite songs is George Gershwin's "Summertime." I must have twenty renditions of it on my iPhone. When the weather gets as hot and muggy as it's been here on the East Coast my wanderlust kicks in and I start longing for an escape from all this atmospheric oppression. It's vacation time!
My road trip isn't until August but if I need a break right now I can saunter over to the museum to breath in the cool mountain air of Alfred Bierstadt's Sierra Nevada, California or Thomas Moran's Mist in Kanab Canyon, Utah.
How about you? Where you off to this summer? We want to know and we've devised an art-related way you can show us where you've been. We've put together a set of artworks from our collection, depicting places around the country. Should you be going to any of these spots, take a photo and post it to our Flickr group: American Art Road Trip. The more the merrier.
I've got to work for the next few weeks. But I'll gladly live vicariously through your road trip pics. Let's see what you've got!
Posted by Jeff on July 9, 2010 in American Art Everywhere, American Art Here
Great idea! We posted some info about this from Away.com's readers, plus created our own tribute to your excellent Flickr collage!
Thanks for the information, we will add this story to our blog, as we have an audience that loves reading like this.

here's a tutorial that i made tonight on how to configure and use some of the basic tools and settings on freestockcharts.com. although i now use TC2000, the paid version of freestockcharts.com (no ads, more options, and more configurable), i think freestockcharts.com is an excellent resource for traders. it is very user friendly, customizable and packed full of very useful features that many subscription charting services don't offer.
i don't have any affiliation with freestockcharts.com, TC2000 or their parent company, Worden Brothers in any way, shape or form. i just came up with the idea to do an instructional video the other day when a friend/follow trader asked me how to configure some of the settings. here's the first part (of another one or two videos to follow) on getting started with fsc.com from steps that i gradually learned using the program over the last few years. as i mention in the video, i use several charting programs at once and each one has it's own specific strengths and it's own short-comings. that's why i find fsc.com as an excellent add-on tool to your trading...and you can't beat the price!
tip: once the video opens, click on the settings at the lower right hand corner of the video screen to enlarge the video to medium or full screen (select the HD quality setting if it doesn't automatically load in HD).

Carlton will not be a "big player" in the AFL trade period, and believes its stocks of big men are good enough without the addition of a recruit.
The Blues' football general manager Andrew Mackay told SEN radio this morning that Carlton's talks with Collingwood big man Chris Dawes had been "very preliminary ... just to see where he was at".
He also said the Blues had nothing more than a "quick chat" with Essendon's mobile key forward Scott Gumbleton before deciding "he wasn't for us".
Mackay refuted the notion that the club felt it had been very close to securing star Magpie forward Travis Cloke. "No, I think in our game you don't start thinking down that track unless you put pen to paper."
Mackay says the Blues have had "feelers out" but no more during the first week of the trade period.
"We've got limited picks. If we were going to trade it would mean pushing others out. If the right player comes along we'll be willing to talk," Mackay said.
Mackay knocked back the perception that his club was light on for tall key forwards, though he did joke that the Blues would act on the "greatest key forward in the league" if he suddenly became available.
He said Jarrad Waite was a "fantastic player ... with an X-factor ... who needs to play more games". He listed Shaun Hampson, whose progress was halted by a knee injury this year, the "developing" Luke Mitchell, testicular cancer victim Sam Rowe, and elevated rookie Levi Casboult as other exciting prospects. "We've got a few guys to deal with, we've just got to keep them on the park."
Aside from the promising stock of talls, Mackay said strongly built rookie utility Tom Bell had been secured, after conjecture that he was being sought by opposing clubs. Now a "nominated" rookie for 2013, meaning he will be able to play all games, Bell has also been guaranteed a primary list position in 2014.
"Obviously Tommy just wanted some security with that and a reasonable term of contract rather than the normal one-year rookie deal that most teams do."
Mackay said new coach Mick Malthouse is "very excited and very enthusiastic and can't wait to get in".
"Obviously he's got some other commitments at the moment which keep him away from the club for decent periods. But certainly dropping in all the time and we're on the phone to him everyday, especially during this trade period. We need his input throughout the whole process, so we're keeping in touch with him. He'll be on deck fully November 1."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 18/10/2011 (2132 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
If it's true the Winnipeg Jets must be a blue-collar, hard hat and lunch-pail squad to be successful -- and the evidence was pretty compelling in Monday's 2-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins -- then it could be argued Jim Slater is the foreman.
The versatile centre is more than just a fourth-line grinder. He can roll up his sleeves and swing an axe, work the jackhammer and then pick up a pencil and tinker with details on the blueprint.
Yes, through four games this season he's scored twice, got into a scrap and has a very firm grasp on his role on this squad as a Swiss Army Knife-type player.
In fact, it was Slater who scribbled this prophetic message on the whiteboard in the Jets' dressing room prior to the team's first victory:
"Tough situations don't last, tough teams do."
"It's just a quote that I live by," he said after Tuesday's morning practice at the MTS Centre. "Situations come and go, but you have to remain strong throughout those tough situations.
"That was a great all-round victory. Everyone played well for us. We were working, we were hitting, we were getting pucks deep, we were shooting the puck, Pav (goaltender Ondrej Pavelec) played great... that's how this team has to play. We're hard-working. It's a blue-collar team and I think it fits this town well.
"That's what we want to bring every time when we come to the rink."
All that said, when this theory was put to captain Andrew Ladd -- the idea that Monday's win was the perfect blueprint for this team -- he countered with his own take: every team in the NHL has to have the same sandpaper and simple elements to its game if it wants to be a contender, whether it is the Penguins, the Detroit Red Wings, the Boston Bruins or, heck, even the dream team Canada sent to the 2010 Winter Olympics.
"I just don't think it really matters what kind of team you are," said Ladd, "that's the way you need to play in this league, period. You look at the Penguins, even when they have (Sidney) Crosby and (Evgeny) Malkin, when they're winning they're doing those little things. I think keeping it simple and getting pucks to the net creates second chances and rebounds and after that you can make plays and be skilled. It's just getting that initial drive to get going."
And although the Jets' Top 6 forwards have yet to strike fear in the opposition, Ladd believes categorizing this squad as just blue collar is type-casting it unfairly.
"We have guys in here that can make plays and put the puck in the net when given the chance," he said. "I know Claude (Noel) doesn't want to take that creativity away from us, but you've got to understand there's a time and there's a place. You have to pick the right times to be creative.
"Really, when it comes down to it, playoff hockey is played the same way. You have to have that mindset and engrave it in there that that's what you have to do every time. It'll open things up and then you can take advantage of those opportunities. If you looked at our most successful times last year: We had four lines that came at teams with speed and battled and we just out-worked teams. The first three games we didn't see that and we've got to get back to just going hard 100 per cent."
email@example.com Twitter: @WFPEdTait
WINGER Evander Kane was back at practice on Tuesday after missing the Pittsburgh game with an undisclosed 'lower-body' injury, believed to be the result of a shot block in the loss to Phoenix on Saturday.
Kane wouldn't confirm that he would be in the lineup against the Maple Leafs, but head coach Claude Noel said "it looks like he's in."
"It was definitely tough to not play but it was great for the guys to get a win," Kane said. "It's no fun being out. My first year I broke my foot. We had 14 games that month and I was out for four weeks. It's definitely tough and I hate doing it.
"You're around the room and you're around the guys as much as you can. But, definitely, when you're not playing you don't have that same mindset as everybody else on the team. Everybody wants to be around when you're winning and I want to get back to that."
Meanwhile, defenceman Ron Hainsey -- who left Monday's game in the second period -- did not practise and his spot will be filled by Winnipegger Derek Meech, who will see his first action of the season.
"Derek's shown himself to be a good player. He's got experience in the league, his skating is his strength. He's a smart player so I think he's going to have good energy," Noel said. "He's dying to play. He'll get an opportunity and we'll be patient with him as we are with all of them."
AND THE STARTER IS... Here's Noel when asked if he had a plan to rotate his goaltenders with the Jets playing two games in two nights: "I don't have a plan. I mean, I have a plan but my plan is to talk to (goaltending coach) Wade Flaherty. That's my plan. He'll help me through that. How would you not want to continue down the road with Pavelec? He played outstanding. He looks like he's a go-to guy so why would you not be going to him?"
NO WORRIES: The Jets' power play may be without a goal through four games, but Noel is convinced that goose egg is about to be smashed.
"I don't have any concerns about the power play," he said. "It'll come around. It's a matter of time. To me, a power play is cyclical, As long as you're doing the right things it's always about the same: the power play is about scoring chances and how you create them. We're getting them.
"Now (assistant coach) Pascal (Vincent, who is in charge of the unit), he's near death. He's near suicidal. If you guys could help him I'd be very appreciative."
-- Tait

This design is made up of travelling stitches (one-stitch cables) that spiral continuously around on a stockinette background. There are 4 cables going one way that are worked every round, and 8 cables going the other way worked every second round. No cable needle is required.
Despite the fact that they are spirals, the cables ultimately produce a slightly irregular diamond pattern, resembling the surface of the famous Dutch toffee-waffles, or 'Stroopwafels'.

Rather than running around town shopping for last-minute presents, Heidi Klum is in total relaxation mode before the holidays.
The model, 39, shared a very revealing photo of herself on Twitter Tuesday, Dec. 18 from a tropical getaway.
"Island speed," she captioned the shot, which showed her lying on her stomach, tanning topless in only black bikini bottoms.
The picture shows off the Project Runway host's toned body -- and a lot of sideboob! In the background of the picture is a stunning beach, ocean and tropical island. Though Klum doesn't say the location of her getaway, the model was tweeting last week from Dubai.
Back in October, the mother of four told reporters she planned on celebrating Christmas with her children, Leni, 8, Henry, 7, Johan, 6, and Lou, 3.
"We're going to get a big Christmas tree and we might go to Disneyland. We go all over the place," Klum explained. "My children are everything for me. I've always wanted to have a big family. And I'm fortunate enough to have four."
It's the first holiday season in seven years that Klum is not spending with Seal; the spouses announced their split in January of this year.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 26/4/2007 (3766 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
THE broad acceptance of physical punishment is a world-wide issue.
According to Penelope Leach, a British pediatrician and parent educator, a random sample of British children at the age of four years indicated that 97 per cent were spanked. The United States reported that more than 90 per cent of all parents slap or spank their children. In Canada, 75 per cent of Canadian parents use spanking as a regular method of discipline, according to a 1995 University of Manitoba study by Drs. Durrant and Rose-Krasnor.
What's so wrong with a spanking? There is a growing body of evidence, which contradicts the use of corporal punishment as a teaching tool. In fact, studies show it has the exact opposite effect in increasing aggressive behaviour and providing children with a model of using violence as a problem-solving option.
Leach suggests using your own observations if you are still not convinced. If children have learned from having been spanked you would expect that they would need it less often. But in fact, what is more likely to happen is that the level of punishment must be increased, hence the danger of it escalating into abuse.
A number of countries have already instituted legislation prohibiting its use as a regular parenting tool.
They include Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Austria, Cyprus, Latvia, Croatia, Israel, Germany, Italy and most recently, Scotland for children under the age of three, according to the Repeal 43 Committee.
The Repeal 43 Committee (www.repeal43.org) in Canada continues to follow their lead to have this archaic (1892) and draconian law removed.
At present, it allows teachers, parents and guardians to use 'reasonable' force by way of correction, the term 'reasonable' providing a wide latitude of legal interpretation. When something is entered into law, it sets guidelines, expectations and standards by which a society ought to live. The purpose is not to criminalize parents but to provide direction for the appropriate discipline of young children.
The extensive research alone showing the negative impact of physical punishment should be reason enough. But there are additional bases that justify change to this approach to discipline.
According to Abraham Maslow, world-renowned psychologist, feelings of safety and security are one of the basic human needs second only to air, food and shelter. Humans need to feel free from any real or perceived danger to maximize their full developmental potential. How safe can a child feel if the person who is supposed to nurture and provide protection becomes the attacker? In the eyes of a small, helpless child, this powerful, angry giant can appear very frightening indeed.
Control through fear may work temporarily but does not develop internal discipline. The child will behave only under external controls that can continue into adulthood, not to mention triggering feelings of resentment and anger that fester into revenge behaviours.
But children are not capable of organizing and have no political voice. The U.S. National Convention on the Rights of the Child spoke for them in 1989 and determined children have the same rights as all human beings. They have a right to grow up in a safe and secure environment.
While it is unfortunate that laws should be required to enforce humane care of our children, I would hope that reason and understanding may also persuade some that non-violence is the best teacher. We start with the premise that most parents want to help their children develop not only into well-behaved, socialized human beings, but to be happy and healthy adults as well. It is not the intent but the method that presents problems. What behaviours we, as parents, choose to reach that goal will depend on our knowledge and beliefs.
Our choices are based on a belief system that originates from various sources, such as our own childhood experiences, our religious views or simply a lack of knowledge. Historically, the view of the nature of the child has changed over the centuries. For example, at one time the child was seen as inherently bad -- a creature actively seeking to "get away with" or "oppose the norms." This "badness" had to be "corrected" by the use of physical punishment in order to "knock it out to ensure the future of cooperative citizens.
But our understanding of the nature of the child has changed. When childhood was eventually identified as a unique stage of human growth our knowledge of child development exploded. Extensive research and studies for over a century has led to our present understanding of the child as being neither good nor bad. Children behave to get their needs met, as we all do. Their behaviours will be directed according to what is socially acceptable in a particular family and environment.
The concept of parenting skills and the role of parents have emerged as central in response to this new information. As children develop, their needs change and parenting is a constant challenge that requires knowledge, intelligence, patience, creativity and yes -- discipline.
But discipline and punishment are not synonymous. Discipline is defined as teaching, while punishment is defined as causing or inflicting pain (in one form or another). It is generally accepted that people do not learn well under stress or pain, so punishment in the form of spanking is a poor teacher. Yet, despite our present knowledge, these beliefs are still very much with us today.
While SpankOut Day encourages parents and caregivers to set aside one day not to hit children, the goal is to expand that to 365 spank-free days through awareness and education.
"To get where we want to go with our children we need to take a longer route, teaching them with our heads and hearts rather than with our hands and belts," Penelope Leach says.
SpankOut Day on April 30
On April 30, a special day will be set aside in the U.S. and many countries around the world called SpankOut Day.
It is sponsored by the Center for Effective Discipline, the headquarters for EPOCH-U.S., an acronym for End Physical Punishment of Children. Coalitions in various parts of Canada also participate in planning events to promote this day as part of the Global Initiative to End Physical Punishment of Children (www.endcorporalpunishment.org).
These groups are maintained by several organizations that include the Canadian Institute of Child Health, the Canadian Public Health Association and the Child Welfare League of Canada, which endorse similar objectives.
The purpose is to bring attention to the negative impact of corporal punishment and to promote non-violent discipline. All parents, guardians and caregivers are encouraged to refrain from hitting children on this day and seek alternative methods available through programs in their communities (www.stophitting.com/spankOut/toolkit.php).

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
Hello, Here is a link to the photographs that the Library of Congress have http://www.loc.gov/pictures/search/?st=grid&co=wri . Many of the photographic negatives were damaged in the flood of 1913 so if your photograph is an original it probably is better than any negatives in their collection. I have handled some photographs but am not an expert in that era but if you would like to send me an image of your photograph I may be able to eliminate it based on the backgrounds and such. Thanks Tom
I tried uploading the second photo but wasn't able to...probably just enlarging will give you the information needed. Since I wrote to Justanswer.com I received a replay from the air and space museum at the Smithsonian stating "definitely not the Wrights. Of the two famous brothers, only Orville had a mustache. Sorry!"
It looks like the larger image did upload.

Our Work - National SecurityTweet
POGO's investigations draw attention to cases where our national security and needs of the troops have been compromised by greed, lack of oversight, and in many cases, sheer incompetence. Our nation's security should never take a back seat to private or bureaucratic interests that result in malfunctioning or under-performing weapons systems, or insufficiently secured military, diplomatic, or nuclear weapons facilities. Yet that is what often happens. Through these investigations, POGO seeks to support the needs of the troops and improve the allocation of taxpayer dollars and resources in order to make the U.S. more safe and secure.

Keeping The Dream Alive: Polaroid Pins
Ironically, the death of Polaroid instant film has brought up what feels like Polaroid Nation around here. I have a sudden re-appreciation for the cameras and snapshots, and it seems like the world around me agrees — witness this rad Polaroid t-shirt and my desperate reminder to get a camera while you still can.
That's why, if I'd seen these pins earlier, I may not have been so admiring of them, but at this time, they make me happy, wistful, and already nostalgic. I'd sport them with pride.

UA Homecoming Parade Set for 7 a.m. Oct. 5
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The University of Alabama's 2013 Homecoming Parade will take place at 7 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, on the UA campus.
The parade will begin on campus and move west toward downtown Tuscaloosa. The Homecoming game vs. Georgia State University will kick off at 11:21 a.m. in Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Additional information on Homecoming Week activities, which run from Sunday, Sept. 29, through Oct. 5, may be found at http://uanews.ua.edu/2013/09/leaving-a-crimson-legacy-theme-of-uas-2013-homecoming-week/.
The grand marshal for the Homecoming Parade is Eddie Conyers. Conyers, a beloved figure in the UA community, began working with the UA athletics department in 1960, when Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant hired him to serve as the football official during practices.
He has worked for every football coach since and still officiates practice under Coach Nick Saban. He is also a liaison football official with the Southeastern Conference. The coaches' dressing room in the football complex was named for Conyers in 2006, and he was made an honorary member of the A-Club, the athletics alumni group.
A native of Montgomery, Conyers earned a bachelor's degree in advertising from UA in 1954. Before graduation, he served four years in the U.S. Navy. He earned a master's degree in higher education from UA in 1979, and served as assistant to the dean for the College of Continuing Studies from 1978 to 1993, when he retired.
In recent years, he has become a popular speaker at UA Alumni Association events around the country, where he entertains the crowds with humorous and poignant memories from his storied career.
All Alabama alumni, friends and fans are invited to attend Tailgatin' with the Tide Under the Big Top brunch on the Quad three hours before kickoff. Tickets are $15 each and may be bought in advance at alumlive.ua.edu/2013-tailgatin-tide.
The University of Alabama, a student-centered research university, is experiencing significant growth in both enrollment and academic quality. This growth, which is positively impacting the campus and the state's economy, is in keeping with UA's vision to be the university of choice for the best and brightest students. UA, the state's flagship university, is an academic community united in its commitment to enhancing the quality of life for all Alabamians.

PlayStation 2
Review by Swordlord
"So far, the emperor of all systems"
I'm sure almost all people who own one agree with me. The only home electronic device that can do more things than the PlayStation 2 is the computer. Although not the last system released, the PS2 is still at its prime and its future looks bright. But the PS2 and the other 2 major consoles that followed have changed the video-gaming world, seemingly forever, from two-dimensional games to three-dimensional ones. I don't know if this is a good change, and I'm not going to argue it here but, nevertheless, the PlayStation 2 is the console to get, nowadays.
1)Software: You can, without a doubt, play more games on the PlayStation 2 than on any other console. There are a lot of action games, 1st-person shooters, exploration games, RPGs. Oh, and sports! How the sports games have improved over the years! Baseball, basketball, hockey, American football and regular football (I was born in Europe, ''soccer'' just doesn't sound right to me) are ultra-realistic now, and one can play as the real teams in competitions with real names. Racing games are also very well done, as good as the arcades, if not better. The thing that amazed at the launch of the PS2, although it's only casually mentioned now, is that Sony's PS2 is backwards compatible with the PSX games. That means a whole other generation of games is available to the owners of the PlayStation 2, in addition to the still-expanding library of PS2 games. PS2 is the ultimate system for fans of fighting games (even more so than the Dreamcast, in my opinion). The only problem for experienced gamers is that there are much more 3-D games, based on exploration and sophisticated moves, than the fast-paced 2-D games that were, to some, more enjoyable. The new systems have killed some genres, like the beat'em-ups, when they could have kept them alive with ease, and some gamers do miss them. But still, the PS2 is doing very well in the games department. 36% out of 40%
2)Aspect: Sony's second console looks better than the first one, I would say. It is black, like many others, but it seems more refined than the rest. The inscription ''PS2'' on top of the console looks really cool and the console looks nice positioned either way: horizontally or vertically. 6% out of 6%
3)Power: Arguably, the best technology available. The PlayStation 2 is a 128-bit system. It still has to compete with 2 newer systems, the Xbox and the GameCube, and they're pretty much level regarding power. Sure, fans of the other 2 systems could say that their graphics are better, but you would have to get a really big TV to notice even a slight difference. The Xbox is, probably, the best of the three in the graphics department but, to be honest here, the human eye can only perceive so much and you would have to use special devices to acknowledge real differences. With 66 million raw polygons available, a 300-Megahertz processor and storage that can hold 8 gigabytes of information, the Sony PlayStation 2 can create environments inside their games that seem as real as the outside. 15% out of 15%
4)Fidelity: Sony does not seem to disappoint their fans. The backwards compatibility is great, but a really good reason to buy a PlayStation 2, one that attracted even people previously not very fond of video games, is the ability to play DVD-ROM movies. This was such a great idea, that Microsoft did it, too, for their Xbox. Audio CDs can be played, too, but this isn't a novelty anymore. The PS2 cannot play Video CDs, however. Also, not all PlayStation discs and I hear that not all DVD films are (completely) compatible, but the incompatible ones are few. Imports of Japanese games are not really necessary, because it seems that all good titles are being released in North America, too. The prices are very high at the moment, but so are those of the competition. Another nice feature is the online play, which not all of the 3 next-generation consoles have (you know who you are). In a nutshell, it is a very well supported system. 28% out of 30%
5)Accessories: There are lots of accessories for the PS2. Most of the accessories made for the PSX can also be used for the PS2. Sony PlayStation 2 has, just like PlayStation One, memory cards to save game data. But, even though you can transfer the data from a PSX memory card to a PS2 memory card, you cannot directly use a PS2 card with a PSX game. For cheating, there's the GameShark. You also have the 'Multi-Tap', S-Video cable, RFU unit and even a wireless remote control for use with DVDs. And then, there's 'Sony's Network Adaptor', for online gaming. I'm not sure if there is a light gun but, very probably, its time has passed, anyway. 8% out of 9%
Total: 93% out of 100%. Every gamer can find something to like here. Sony PlayStation 2 made the PlayStation obsolete and, if every person were a gamer, it probably could make DVD Players obsolete, too. Almost 3 years after the release of the PS2, reviews of this system are probably a little rushed. Who knows what the future holds for this system? We might see more improvements. And the competition, not with one, but with two other systems, definitely can't hurt. From Swordlord, 4 swords up!

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/1/2012 (2044 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
BOSTON -- If you've got the right stuff for 40 minutes and then lose the game, do you actually have the right stuff?
That's the key question that comes out of Tuesday night's NHL game at TD Garden, where the upstart Winnipeg Jets put three leads up on the scoreboard and led 3-2 through 40 minutes, only to see the defending Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins rattle home three goals in the first 6:41 of the third to coast to a 5-3 victory.
The unravelling began just eight seconds into the third period, with Nathan Horton's second goal of the game.
"It's the worst-case scenario," said Jets defenceman Ron Hainsey.
Winnipeg limps home today with a 1-3 road trip to start 2012.
"I thought we were pretty happy with the way we played in the first two periods," said Jets captain Andrew Ladd. "We were pretty confident going into that period.
"That first shift just killed us. It took the air out of the team. We've got to be better off the start of that period."
It was by no means a perfect first 40 minutes for the Jets, but they were largely engaged in the contest, getting goals from Ladd, Blake Wheeler and Eric Fehr, as well as solid netminding from Ondrej Pavelec, to push the Bruins hard.
"We weren't playing our best hockey in the first and second," Horton said, apparently unwilling to concede there were two teams on the ice.
But the Bruins played their game in the third, running over the Jets just like a Cup champion could, adding goals by Tyler Seguin and Benoit Pouliot after Horton's.
And that had Jets coach Claude Noel's blood close to boiling after it was over, his team having dropped to 20-17-5 to start the second half of the season.
"It's a disappointing game," Noel said. "You played pretty solid for 40 minutes. You miss an assignment on the opening faceoff the first shift of the third and you're fricking tied."
The watered-down profanity was an indication of the coach's deep displeasure.
"Emotionally, they played and they won the battles and we didn't pay the price necessary at our net," he said. "That's where they scored three of their goals. For me, there's no excuses. But you're playing against a team that's won a Cup and emotionally they get to a level that you'll have to know you're going to dig down and reach.
"We didn't get it done."
And his young team has plenty to learn about getting it done, Noel said.
"That's where you have to see where you're going to grow," he said. "You're playing against a team that has won. They've won for a reason. It's more than good players. It's the experience of the push and the emotional level. These are the games you have to utilize and be prepared for this stuff.
"What's going to take place? They're down by one. What do you think's going to happen. Well, emotionally they're going to push and physically they're going to push. They've got weight they can do that with and they did."
Noel made no secret that his team got quickly demoralized with Horton's goal early in the third.
And he said there's no way to practise or refine the handling of such situations, other than to go through it and to learn not to repeat mistakes.
"You can't practise an emotional level," Noel said. "You have to go through the experiences of this. There are no practices where you can sit there and say, 'Let's replicate this.' These are some of the experiences you've got to get over this stage of your existence.
"You've got to find ways to get into this. Is that through confidence? It's going to work through checking and through sacrifices and having success with sacrifices. That's what you have to try go get over."
As costly as the blown leads were two more injuries for the Jets on Tuesday.
They lost Tanner Glass to a facial cut in the first period after he was high-sticked -- no call -- by Boston's Joe Corvo. Glass could not return.
Then defenceman Zach Bogosian had to leave the game during the second period with a lower-body injury and he didn't return.
