Aston Villa take on Birmingham at midday on Sunday in an eagerly-anticipated derby game, and excited fans have taken to Twitter as the countdown to the match continues.
It's the first time the two sides have met in England's second tier in 29 years, when Villa won 2-1 away.
The two rivals did meet in the League Cup last year and Villa also beat their rivals then, with a goal from Rudy Gestede the difference between the two sides.
Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to roar on their team in a game that could see them move up to 13th in the Championship, three points behind Birmingham who are currently in eighth.
Former Birmingham manager Steve Bruce hasn't lost a game since taking over at Villa, and he takes his side into the derby following back-to-back wins.
Here is a selection of tweets from Aston Villa fans:
Finally it's derby day, come on Villa! #avfc

Delhi bus rapist blames dead victim for attack because 'girls are responsible for rape' http://t.co/qr7l6IpQj2 pic.twitter.com/kCOz0WdkaN — The Independent (@Independent)
March 2, 2015
In 2012, Jyoti Singh was brutally raped and murdered, making headlines in India and the world over. She was a 23-year old medical student who was walking with a male friend, when they got offered a ride by a private bus.
It was inside this bus that she was gang raped and then beaten to death. The incident prompted widespread demonstrations, as the incident struck a core with the women in India who had faced similar incidents of sexual violence.
Recently, one of the convicted men was interviewed from jail, and his words show how repugnant and deep the problem really is.
Check Out: 'One Billion Rising' Campaign Calls For An End To Violence Against Women
Mukesh Singh said that "A girl is far more responsible for rape than a boy." Not only does he blame her for the rape, he also says she holds responsibility for her death. "When being raped, she shouldn't fight back. She should just be silent and allow the rape. Then they'd have dropped her off after 'doing her,', and only hit the boy."
The man claims he was merely driving the bus at the time and denies involvement in the attack, but his horrific stance against the dignity and rights of women make it hard to believe that he was innocent. There is also significant DNA evidence against the man.
The fact that he can justify their actions, and even place blame on the victim shows how direly India is in need of a revolution for women's rights.

ONKYO - 3 new LS Series speaker systems to make TV sound rich
Onkyo is going to release 3 new speaker systems from their LS series, from which you can select the best one to suit your TV-watching style or installation space: "LS-T10", "LS-B50", and "LS-B40".
The LS series supports "AuraSphere" technology that creates a "3-dimensional" acoustic field through DSP (Digital Sound Processing). It makes up for less sound force caused by the current trend of thin TVs with narrow frames and gives you a dynamic sound experience.
It can be connected to TVs with a cable. Since it is Bluetooth capable, you can wirelessly play the music in a Bluetooth compliant device such as a smartphone or tablet or MP3 data saved via USB memory.
"LS-T10" is a model that you can set-up under a TV.
It can hold a maximum of 35kg on top, including a 40-inch TV. Three φ70mm full-range speaker units on each side at the front and a φ120mm woofer at the bottom are built-in. Maximum output is 100W (37.5W×2 + 25W woofer).
"LS-B50" is a combination of a 909mm wide sound bar and wireless sub-woofer, which is a suitable model for a 40-inch TV or bigger.
There are 8 speaker units built-in (including 3 full-range speaker units and 1 tweeter on each side at the front). Maximum output of the bar system area is 37.5W×2 and that of the sub-woofer is 50W. Because of the IR flasher, you can still use the remote control even when the light receiving section is covered.
"LS-B40" is a sound bar style speaker with a built-in woofer.
There are 8 speaker units built-in (including 3 full-range speaker units and 1 tweeter on each side at the front), and the maximum output is 37.5W x 2.

Hey, Toronto is not as dull as most folks from outside the city seem to think it is. I know it's not exactly Rome or Montreal, but it's not that bad. You just need a local to show you around. Of course, locals will take you to places and then say, "You know, I haven't been to Little Italy in, like, 7 years. I don't know why I don't come out here more." By the end of the night, with vomit on their shoes, reeking of smoke and blurry eyes, of course, they will remember why it is that they don't go to Little Italy very often.
Personally, I like to think that I, alone, am responsible for the increase in the trips to London, given that in 2007 I spent 5 days there, and in 2008 I spent 147 days.

Ernest Howard Crosby
Ernest Howard Crosby (1856–1907) was an American reformer, georgist, and author, born in New York City, the son of Presbyterian minister Howard Crosby,[1] and a relative of prolific hymn-writer and rescue mission worker Fanny Crosby.
He was educated at New York University and the Columbia Law School. He was a member of the Delta Phi fraternity during his time at New York University. While a member of the State Assembly (1887–1889), he introduced three high-license bills, all vetoed by the Governor. From 1889 to 1894 he was judge of the Court of the First Instance at Alexandria, Egypt. He became an exponent of the theories of Count Tolstoy, whom he visited before his return to America; his relations with the great Russian later ripened into intimate friendship, and he devoted himself in America largely to promulgating Tolstoy's ideas of universal peace. His book, Plain Talk in Psalm and Parable (1899), was widely commended by such writers as Björnson, Kropotkin, and Zangwill. He was a vegetarian.[2] Like the Englishman Edward Carpenter, the subject of his book 'Poet and Prophet', Crosby's poetry (in the volume 'Swords and Plowshares')followed the example of Whitman's free verse. He wrote:
- Captain Jinks, Hero, illustrated by Daniel Carter Beard, (1902)
- Swords and Plowshares (1902)
- Tolstoy and his Message (1903; second edition, 1904)
- Tolstoy as a Schoolmaster (1904)
- Carpenter: Poet and Prophet (second edition, 1905)
- Garrison, the Non-Resistant and abolitionist (Chicago, 1905)
- Broad-Cast (1905)
- The Meat Fetish : Two Essays on Vegetarianism, (by Ernest Howard Crosby and Elisée Reclus, 1905)
- Labor and Neighbor (1908)

Create Interest in your Ezine by Adding Polls
Author: © Erum Munir | Posted: Tips
Everyone loves good content in an ezine! But time to time you need to add an interesting twist…something that will catch the attention of your subscriber and get them to participate actively.
One such tool are polls. It takes less than a minute to participate but involves your subscribers. Question is how to add one using Ecourse Wizard?
It is very simple.
Have you ever used the 'Track Links' section?
That is a brilliant tool and a great way to set up a poll.
Of course first you must come up with poll questions and answers. Then follow these steps.
Step 1
Set up a thank you page for your poll. This will need to be at your website.
Step 2
Next login to your Ecourse Wizard Control Panel. Click on the campaign you want to work with. Next choose Track Links from the top menu.
Step 3
In Description: Enter you Poll answers so you may know which answer each tracking link represents.
For URL to track: Enter the URL of your thank you page.
Repeat this process for all your poll answers.
Step 4
You now have a separate tracking link for each answer. Even though they all lead to your thank you page, the results for each answer will be calculated separately.
Step 5
Place the Poll in your Ezine using the tracking Links as follows:
For an HTML Ezine:
Your question comes here (please click on the link to vote):
This is my favourite (use tracking link for option 1)
I don't think so (use tracking link for option 2)
For a text ezine, the links will need to be placed separately:
Your question comes here (please click on the link to vote)
This is my favourite
I don't think so
Now everytime your subscribers vote and click on a link, it will get recorded. You can view the votes via your Track Links - View Click-thru report section.
The count column will show how many times each option was clicked.
So make your ezine more interesting and start adding polls.

It was > in practice an actual handler hook implementation for request > processing, not configuration phases. The way I see it, we have artificially separated configuration from request processing. If you squint and tilt your head just right, you can see that virtualhosts today are really just syntactical sugar over the if/else logic inside of core: Some pseudo request processing code to do same thing: if listening_port == 80 then if r.hostname == 'www.foo.com' then .... elseif r.hostname =~ /www\d.bar.[org|net]/ end end Of course this could be further hidden from users with macros/functions/libraries/modules... Now, on the practical side, do we completely ditch the current config system. Part of me says yes, but I know that will be -1'd to death. So, I'd just like the ability to do something like this: LoadModule lua_module mod_lua.so Listen 80 LuaRequestHandler /path/to/my/lua/handler.lua (or it can be inline <Lua> but have found that to be somewhat cumbersome) Because I don't want to rewrite mod_proxy in lua, it'd be nice to have just a little bit of glue that would allow me to use it in a more "scripty" sort of way: LoadModule proxy_module mod_proxy.so LoadModule proxy_http_module mod_proxy_http.so .... require httpd.proxy -- provided by mod_proxy glue p = httpd.proxy.get_url('http://blah') (Of course, that example could be handled like we do in mod_rewrite) Currently, we can sorta do most request processing in lua. (FWIW, do the request phases make any sense in a world where the entire request process is handled by a "script"??) What is missing is the glue to the other, useful parts of httpd - like cache, mod_dbd, proxy, etc. Sure, one of us could hack together some example glue here and there, but until we as a whole "get" why this is useful/important, it will be just another list of patches waiting to be reviewed. -- Brian Akins Chief Operations Engineer Turner Digital Media Technologies

Its kinda boring that where ever I am I can just reach out my arm and touch three guys that'd probably want to bone me. Is it a way I can find more challenging guys? Like maybe a certain type to look for?
My friend said I should try married guys or guys in relationships but 😬 that's a bit much. Other options?
Most Helpful Guy
Most Helpful Girl
Respect other people's relationships.
Challenging men would be successful, busy men who don't have much time for relationships. Grown men like that usually are more respectful of women too and they won't chase you like a drooling dog.00|00|0

This weekend I was interviewed on the FM radio show / podcast Dudes of Disruption, where the hosts debated whether women should make the first move in romance — initiate the first date, sex, or propose marriage.
Host Nick Papadopoulos has lots of ideas about how women are equal and can and should initiate whatever they want. I say: Um, that is a given. But where does inherent gender roles, sexual chemistry and human nuance come into play? Gregory's stance is since men are more prone to leave relationships and families, they should be the one to do the asking.
The convo got a little spicy! What do you think? Have a listen and comment below!

Citing a confidential assessment by former South African police chief Andre Pruis, British media is trying to make the case that Qatar is too vulnerable to terrorism to serve as host. As someone who has worked on counter-terrorism issues for nearly 20 years, I find this argument wrong for three key reasons.
FIFA seems to treat this kind of scrutiny with complete contempt. It needs to realise that it does not own world football; but is merely the governing body of the sport. It gives the impression of being full of a lot of hard faced old men who have grown rich from the game, and whose instinctive response to any crisis is to cover for each other.
It's been proposed that, since it's popular in Russian law, it's not the job of the Western world to change it. This is ridiculous on many levels. Firstly, a human rights violation is a human rights violation, regardless of whether anyone, majority or minority, elite or common, thinks it's a good thing.

Obama should lay out the argument that religious freedom at home is crucial to promoting religious freedom abroad -- a policy Republicans have long championed.
Speak to the Global Audience
David Gibson covers religion for PoliticsDaily.com and is author of "The Rule of Benedict: Pope Benedict XVI and His Battle with the Modern World."
Updated June 11, 2012, 12:44 PM
When President Obama used a Ramadan iftar dinner at the White House to back the right of Muslims to build the controversial Islamic center near ground zero, he was hailed by many pundits, among them some notable conservatives, for his high-minded defense of the constitutional principle of freedom of religion.
But he clearly did not make his case to the American people, who continue to oppose the construction of Cordoba House by wide margins. Nor was he able to short-circuit the political instincts of conservatives like Newt Gingrich (or even struggling Democrats, like Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who also came out in opposition to the mosque).
Gingrich has managed to stand out in his full-throated denunciation of the president and the Islamic center, at one point saying there should be no mosque near ground zero "so long as there are no churches or synagogues in Saudi Arabia."
That's an idea that may resonate, even if it is wrong-headed. But Obama could well invert Gingrich's rhetoric and perhaps stanch the political bleeding -- and help believers overseas -- if he laid out the argument that religious freedom at home is in fact crucial to promoting religious freedom abroad, though not in the way Gingrich and others might think.
Religious leaders and human rights experts across the spectrum have long argued that in promoting international religious freedom, the United States must first lead by example. Republicans in particular have been preaching this gospel for decades, after Democrats largely ceded the territory in the 1980s.
That many Republican leaders may now be forgetting that history is a shame, and for religious believers -- especially Christians in Islamic countries -- it's bad news indeed. President Obama can remind Republicans and the American people of what is at stake, and advance a diplomacy that uses religious freedom as a central component and an effective tool.
But as is often the case, Mr. Obama's problem is in part his own making. His administration did not name an Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom until this June, despite the urging of religious freedom advocates that he act quicker. And then he picked Suzan Johnson Cook, a Baptist pastor from the Bronx with no political experience to speak of; she is still awaiting confirmation in the Senate.
If President Obama had an ambassador for religious freedom in place, maybe even a high-profile Republican (there are many potential candidates), this entire episode could have played out differently. Now the president will have to make the case himself. And he should.

I get plenty of answers when I ask questions under anonymous but when I reveal who I am, people barely answer my questions. If you are anonymous or have no pic people can only imagine how you might look. I think it has a lot to do with my picture. I'm a black female and, of course, people will try to ignore me quicker than anyone else
Don't say it isn't true because ignorance qnd racism is so real, even if it's not intentional.

If you're gonna shut yourself off to one whole direction, what's the point in telling you the truth. Chances are you've mentioned that you'd reject a certain answer simply because of this or that. "Don't say it isn't true because ignorance qnd racism is so real, even if it's not intentional. "
You're already playing the race card. See, that's the thing with minorities after the fight for their rights die down alittle. You keep using your "weakness" as a weapon against others. And then what happens when you ask questions online? You only want to hear what you want to hear. That's probably why noone bothers.22|00|0
First of all, that's not a weakness. People try to accuse blacks of using the race card to make it seem like were being dilusional like racism isn't real. You are right about me asking a question and steering it in my own direction instead of being open minded. I've been on this site for awhile and I've noticed that my questions rarely get answered once I reveal myself. I could be wrong, I could be right. That's why I'm open to opinions.
Apart from that, It's probably because you dare to ask more controversial questions as anon. Now controversial isn't bad, it simply means it gets people thinking. If your questions make people think, they'll answer. I wouldn't really bother with a mundane question like "How do I look" myself.
Right. I understand. Some questions aren't relatable attention grabbers so I guess rephrasing my questions or posting at a certain time of the day will give me more answers. Thank you for your honesty 😉

Because of the way your picture is, we can't actually see your face. Seeing as we can't see your face, a user would have to go out of their way to go to your profile and view the image at full size because right now, it just looked to me like a picture of the sunset over the sea or something like that, not a picture of you. I highly doubt that it's because you're black.11|00|0

Noida, India (PressExposure) June 27, 2011 -- As per our new research report "Global RNAi Market Analysis", companies working in the RNAi industry are presently interested in a specific RNAi Therapeutics candidate with which they can deal with the external company directly, without the need for an in-house middleman. Our study indicates that, many companies have started looking for this option. For instance, Pfizer has already pursued this alternative pathway as they have partnered the ddRNAi program for HCV with Tacere and a synthetic siRNA candidate from Quark for wet AMD. In both the cases, there seemed to have been little involvement by Pfizer's in-house oligonucleotide therapeutics unit.
Further, recently Marina Biotech announced a product-specific development deal with Swiss drug licensing and development company Debiopharm that covers a pre-clinical stage RNAi Therapeutics program for bladder cancer (via topical LNP-siRNA administration), where much of the early development work will stay with Marina.
Additionally, we have done a thorough and prudent analysis of the global RNAi industry. We have identified that, RNAi is already an established enabling biotechnology product platform and its use in therapeutics and diagnostics may rival products, like recombinant proteins or monoclonal antibodies in future. It is anticipated that, the global RNAi market will grow at a CAGR of around 28% during 2010-2015.
Besides, our study indicates that, presently in the nascent stages, the RNAi industry is gaining ground in the therapeutics arena, with its most promising application being high-throughput screening. The first of the approved RNAi-based drugs are expected to foray into the therapeutics market in 2013.
Further, the US and Europe together account for a lion's share of the global RNAi market. However, research and investments around the globe have spurred the industry performance to a great extent. The governments in various Asian countries, such as Japan, China, India, and Korea have made huge investments for the growth and development of RNAi research in their respective countries.
"Global RNAi Market Analysis" provides thorough research and rational analysis along with reliable statistics of the global RNAi industry. The report provides extensive information and rational analysis of the global RNAi market. It has thoroughly examined market applications, industrial developments, and competitive landscapes to enable clients understand the market structure and its progress in coming years. The report also provides an insight into the different products available in the market on a segment level. Besides, the research contains exhaustive information regarding recent developments in the geographical markets that will help clients in formulating market strategies and assess opportunity areas in the global RNAi market.

A fan of Civil War history and books and a quilter, I selected Dandelions on the Wind by Mona Hodgson as my next "read and review" book. Dandelions on the Wind is the first-in-a-series Hodgson is writing, The Quilted Heart Series.
Summary of the Book: Hodgson weaves a sweet tale about the merging of two hearts hurting from loss. One heart belongs to Maren, who finds herself alone in post-Civil War Missouri having left family in Denmark to make a new life in America with her soon-to-be husband, Orvie Christensen. Orvie leaves Maren when they learn that she is losing her eyesight.
Good fortune shines on Maren and she finds shelter with a grandmother and her little granddaughter, whose mother died at birth and her father ran off to war to avoid the broken heart he experienced at losing the love of his life. They each need the other to lean on.
Soon, Rutherford "Woolly" Wainwright returns home, and the two broken souls begin a path to finding renewal and perhaps love again.
It isn't an easy pathway as Wainwright's mother-in-law is resentful of his running away and abandoning his daughter at birth, not to mention leaving her to run a farm in the face of her own personal losses. However, Maren becomes a mediator of sorts between the two as does little Gabi, Wainwright's daughter.
My review: I had never read a work by Mona Hodgson until reading Dandelions on the Wind, but had heard good things about her writing. I am sorry to say this book disappointed me.
The depth of character development and story line was lacking in the fine details that thread one character to another and bring the story to fruition. Perhaps the author was seeking to keep this work at novella length since it is part of a series, but more descriptive language and details about the people, as well as colorful words to bring to life the setting, would have added richness to the story.
I liked this book — it was a quick read, it was easy to follow, the story line had promise. However, I could not rejoice or weep with the characters over their triumphs or disappointments because I did not develop a connection with them as I have done in other books.
When I began this first-in-a-series book, I looked forward to reading the rest of the series. At this writing, I am not sure I will read the next two books.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

pleasant transatlantic: Vision of the Seas Cruise Review by dwolfe
Overall Member Rating
pleasant transatlantic
Destination: Transatlantic
Embarkation: Southampton
My Time Dining has some hiccups early on but they were ironed out for the rest of the trip. Loved the chilled fruit soups. The early week menus were leftovers from the Baltic and the regular menus were served the second week. We had to divert from Lisbon because of the strike, it was disappointing but not a trip killer for me. The Bay of Biscay was a bit rough but things mellowed out and the Atlantic More behaved herself beautifully the rest of the trip.
I was dismayed that the library was the cigar bar at night, if you were an early riser the smoke smell when you went in for the puzzles and newspaper was really terrible. The computer area was sufficient but the connection was slow and frustrating.
The spa area was very nice. My only issue was that the exercise floor area was much too small and in the morning it was difficult to find room to lift weights and the machines were always full.
During this trip the promenade was blocked on the bow so you could not get a full walk around the ship in and would either have to double back or go through the ship to continue your route.
I would have liked to see more movies shown during the day, especially at sea. The geographer from Canada who gave the port and history lectures was truly interesting and actually made forensic geology fun. The shows were disappointing to me, just not my cup of tea but I heard from others that they enjoyed them.
The management of RCCI has a much better staff than they deserve. Corporate cutbacks were obvious but the room stewards, mechanical guys working around the ship and the waitstaff were universally competent, kind and eager to please.
In all, I very much enjoyed this cruise. Less
Published 10/15/12
Cabin review: 2116
Plenty of storage space for one or two, any more would be a stretch. No fridge in the room and ancient TV. Bed surprisingly comfortable. Love seat and table were very useful. Bathroom small but adequate, however, the shower curtain was unpleasant and frustrating so showered most often in the spa. Window a must for me. Hall way was quiet but there were miscellaneous early morning bangs and thumps that could drive noise sensitive people nuts. Only one usable plug so you will need to bring a multiple plug adapter for ipod, cell phone, kindle charging, etc.

An Amazing Doctor
I became a patient over 8 years ago and found out I was at high risk to get breast cancer. After numerous biopsies, last year I was diagnosis with breast cancer. Knowing Dr. Arthur's knowledge and compassion I knew I was going to be okay. I decided to have a double mastectomy. She met with me for 3 hours to discuss my options, pros and cons. I had surgery and now I am a survivor. I was lucky. It was caught early and it was because of her follow-up. I am so lucky to have her as my doctor.

Love Dr. Arthur. Almost nine years ago she called me at home (from her home) to give me my diagnosis. She stayed on the phone with me for as long as I needed, calming my fears and reassuring me. Everything went very well. She is also an artist. During radiation therapy, everyone always commented on how great my scar looked. She really cares about how you look afterwards. Can not recommend her highly enough.

Dr. Arthur is wonderful. When my biopsy came back positive, Dr. Arthur called me on the phone that evening to explain everything to me and calmed my fears. She stayed on the phone as long as I needed her to, although it was the evening and she was home, calling me before her dinner I'm sure. After the surgery, the radiologists and their technicians couldn't help but comment on the beautiful job Dr. Arthur had done. She is known for her "aesthetic oncology" as she and her team put it. I am almost seven years out and I still follow up with Dr. Arthur. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We have setup replication from SQL Server 2008 to SQL Server 2005 database.
After some time when we terminated the replication (by deleting the subscriptoins from SQL Server manager) and tried to use the SQL Server 2005 database independantly, then on inserting records in different tables we came to know that the primary keys for these tables have been reset ???
like the newly inserted records were being given primary keys "1, 2...".
Please advise

I'd really need more information to be able to help.
Do you mean the Primary Keys are Identity columns and have been reset? These can be managed by replication and can be affected by dropping a subscription.. you can re-seed the column if this is indeed the case.
Jan 19, 2011 at 12:56 UTC
yes these were the identity columns, and we have observed these being affected and have to reseed these, and also we noticed the triggers are dropped in the subscribed db, when its replication was dropped

The owner of my company's old G4 Powerbook finally started giving up the ghost, so I indicated we needed to replace it.
I am the only IT person in this company. The owner has designated that I am responsible for ensuring all software is properly licensed and all hardware purchases are authorized through me. We have been audited by BSA in the past - and passed without issue.
The owner leaves for lunch and next thing I know, he indicates he went to the Apple store with his Powerbook and bought an iMac - the people at the Genius Bar would be transferring his data for him and he would need me to come in over the weekend to help him finish setting it up on the network. No problem - their transferring of the data is saving me a step - I can deal with that.
I have no issue with his choice of hardware - the Mac has been great for him. When I expressed that he should have consulted with me before making the purchase, I was told to not worry because the guy from the Genius Bar helped him. Now, a number of problems that have come up since then as he never allowed me to consult with him prior to making his purchase.
First, the folks at the Apple store - even though he made it perfectly clear this was a business computer - sold him MS Office 2008 Home and Student Edition.
Then, they set his user profile up with a different user name than his old machine - even though the work order made clear he would be using this Mac on a Windows domain network.
The owner picked it up Saturday morning and paged me to come in immediately to set it up for him. 2 hours into my Saturday night, I had the network, user configuration, printing, and the connection to legacy application issues all licked.
However, when I pointed out to the owner that he had the "wrong" version of office on the machine, that the Home and Student version license specified non-commercial use, he called the guy who helped him at the Apple store on speaker phone. The Apple store employee told the owner that his IT guy had it all wrong, that he could use the MS Office 2008 Home and Student Edition because he paid for the computer with a personal credit card. He further said that the company should look for a competent IT person because there is no difference between the Business Edition and Home and Student Edition other than price - all the applications are the same - and any competent IT person would be able to make the Home and Student version work with the MS SBS Server and save the company a lot of money.
What do I do? The owner is convinced the Apple "Genius" would not steer him wrong and that I am misunderstanding the licensing. Not to mention that he has now questioned my expertise....

Provide proof to your boss that you are right. Look for documentation that would explain the licensing issue.
Jun 14, 2010 at 3:56 UTC
You could show your boss the Microsoft site with regards to their definition of proper licensing.

I would print out the licensing spec from MS licensing. It is specific. I had the same conversation with Our owner when he purchased a new sony vio.

As for the Apple "Genius" it might be worth a chat with the manager of that facility and discuss the realities of M$ licensing. Clearly the "Genius" is clueless. Wonder how M$ would feel about Apple selling their products unfairly?

In all seriousness, I would call the Business Software Alliance and put them on the phone with your boss and report Apple. If Apple is doing this then Microsoft will want to have a bit of an official chat with them. If this was me that would have been the first call that I made.
We once had an eBay vendor try to sell us stolen licenses. We called the BSA and followed their instructions. We got all of those computers for free ;)

This is also very wise. You do owe Apple the chance to fire that guy and atone for their mistakes. Having an employee involved in a) stealing software b) providing VERY bad guidance c) slandering an IT professional and saying that you are incompetent for not breaking the law - are all things that could get Apple very much sued beyond any penalties that they would have to pay to Microsoft.

How about posting which Apple Store it was? I'll call right now and say "I just read online that your store is helping people steal Microsoft software! That's awesome, I'm so sick of paying for this stuff. I assume that Apple is providing indemnification for all purchases that they recommend so I don't have an legal worries. I'd like to start getting all of my software for the bank from you!"
Seriously, I'll call.
Jun 14, 2010 at 5:48 UTC
First - thanks for the links. I found Sosipater's link contained exactly what I needed to drop on the owner's desk. Courtesy of prior BSA visits, he seemed to take it seriously.
Next will be whether I call the BSA or not... I will be speaking with the manager of that Apple Store and his/her attitude will determine whether the next call is to the BSA. It should be pretty easy for the manager to determine which employee gave the owner the bad information and talked with us on the phone.
Thanks all for reaffirming my faith.

You've had previous BSA visits? That's actually a good thing. It's important for companies to understand that stealing software really isn't something that they want to do. I'd prefer to work at a company that had been through a BSA audit (but passed) that one that had never faced one. Hopefully it means that the business thinks a bit more of the effort that we go through for compliance and licensing!
Jun 15, 2010 at 7:38 UTC
I am glad to see a discussion like this. We as IT professionals have a responsibility to be ethical and ensure that we do what is right with regards to software purchasing. A second all of Scott's comments, just becausea salesperson cares little for license compliance doesn't mean we as professionals are off the hook.

Reminds me of a time when a friend and I were in a big-box sporting goods store. One of the associates was helping a father and young son with paintball equipment...including those cheap $4 shop goggles. We stopped them dead in their tracks and said if you want your son to avoid going blind or getting killed you had better buy the real deal. The employee got irritated for us butting in and went on about "playing for years with safety glasses and blah blah blah". Whatever man...you got lucky. All I had to do was lift my shirt and show the guy the welts from my previous tournament three days prior. Nuff said (well...that and further convincing this poor guy that paintball won't kill his kid as long as all safety equipment are used and that there's some kind of proper training involved).
It all comes down to one thing; there are no sales professionals anymore, especially in a retail store. These people (mostly kids) have to sell anything out on the floor and only know enough on each product to make a half-convincing sales pitch. Everyone is to blame for this crap. Companies don't want to pay for experience. People don't want to learn about what they're buying anymore, so don't want to talk to an informed salesperson anyway. Stores willingly return anything, further promoting people to make stupid purchases knowing they can just dump it back to the place of purchase.
I was at Gander Mountain last night looking at two recently released .380 semi-automatic sub compact pistols. I could have listened to the lady behind the counter BS me into getting the one with a better commission...er..."extra clip and holster" (BTW, wanna piss me off? Call a semi-auto pistol's magazine a 'clip'). Instead I went home and researched the snot out of the two (and found a possible third...hehe). I've decided on the other one...not the one she was pushing with the horrible service and support.

I also would love to have the number of the store and the name of an employee you spoke to.
Jun 15, 2010 at 8:27 UTC
KIT is an IT service provider.
I hope your boss comes around. We had an issue similar to this years back and the boss wouldn't listen. It almost cost us a large fine, but we were able to talk and buy our way out of it. This was of course before I was handling IT. ;-)

People qualified to judge an IT professional's performance are generally NOT found at an Apple Store. What an unprofessional idiot.
The stuff says "Home and Student" right on it. Does this puke need to read 30 pages of fine print to find "Home and Student" listed eslewhere before he will believe it?

I'm a little late to the party, but I'd do the same thing that Doug Williams suggested. I'm having the same issues myself - Apple can do no wrong. It's incredibly frustrating, although they haven't questioned my skillset yet.
Jun 15, 2010 at 9:20 UTC
Very Interesting thread.....A few questions to clarify.....So the new iMac was purchased with a Company CC with the express purpose of using at the Company, right? If so, then yes that Apple person is an idiot.....
I guess I am thinking of what if my Boss goes to Dell with his personal CC and buys new unit. Orders it with said MS Office suite (Home and Student) for the express purpose of using mainly for home/personal use and then also some work related stuff. Do I care in this case?? I would say nope, not at all as could care less - no Company funds were used for this purchase. Am I correct???
I gotta hear audio of SAMs call that that Apple store...That would be priceless...
Jun 15, 2010 at 9:35 UTC
Why am I not surprised that an Apple rep knows nothing about actual IT procedures.
If he was such a genius, he would be administering all the those MAC networks out there, and not selling iMacs and iPhones.
Oh, wait....

For those of you who have been to the Basque Country, please help me with this. I am planning a 3-4 trip to Basque Country in late August, planning to stay in Ainhoa at Hotel Argi Eder (Hotel Ithurria sounds wonderful from comments here but is booked up). I will have a rental car to explore the region. I don't speak a word of French (other than good morning, please, thank you) so do the proprieters at the hotels and others speak English to help me get by? Also, I have never rented car and driven in France, are there any issues or concerns? I plan to pick up and return the car at Bordeaux railway station after trip down from Paris. Thanks for your help.

You'll be fine.
Gestures work. Starvation is rare.

You will be fine. Just don't say "I hate the ETA" in Euskara Batua (Standard Basque). I do not know French Basque Country as well as Spain, but in Spain most of the road signs and other things are in Basque.
There is usually a ridiculous charge for picking up a car in one country and dropping it off in another, if they allow it at all. The Basque country of Spain is beautiful and interesting and San Sebastian(Donostia) has the best food in Spain.
Report Abuse
Yes, you will be ok.
I stayed in Ainhoa at the Ithuria which I loved and the food, local wine were very good, it's a lovely small village. I bought one of the hotel's towels. they don't usually sell them but I asked so I could put my lingerie on it in the car, as they were still damp.
Report Abuse
Your are fine on the French side - There are no issues, as the Revolution and Napoleon sorted the problem out!
I stayed in Hotel Ithurria years ago, recommended by Cigalechanta, and it is a wonderful hotel, great food & wine and a delightful village/area.
I drove from Bordeaux, over the mountains and into Northern Spain, through Basque region, Cantabria, Asturias and Galicia (divided between two trips). Best trips I have ever done!
You hit the Basque issue when you cross the boarder into Spain. Sign-posting is in Spanish and Basque (incomprehensible, as it is (apparently) not Indo-European language!). Spanish signs where sprayed over, which made it rather difficult to find my bearings. Definitely speak English on the Spanish side!
The Basque have a very rich culture and history, that is not well-known in the West, and was suppressed, particularly by Franco - what they sowed they now reap unfortunately.
You MUST read this book before you go, to appreciate the culture - it is a wonderful book, and explains a lot about the situation, which is very much like that in Northern Ireland. :

Driving isn't a problem, depending on what you are used to. If you pick up the car in Paris, make sure you have good directions for heading south on the A-10. It can be confusing if you are not used to the traffic, which can be heavy at times. The drive from Paris to Bordeaux will take at least 5 hours. Ainhoa adds another 2-1/2 hours, so I recommend you stop for the night just south of Bordeaux.
Signage can be a problem at times. You have to know where you are going as not all of the villages are listed until you get close to the turnoff. Also note that secondary roads can be narrow when driving through the Pays Basque countryside.
As far as speaking English, some hotel owners do speak a little English, but a lot do not. It's the same at most restaurants; French, Spanish and Euskara are more common than English. Remember, restaurants in the Pays Basque serve lunch from 12:15 to 1:30 and dinner is typically served from 7:00 to 10:00, but many restaurants will not take orders after 9:00. You'll need reservations for lunch or dinner at most restaurants.
There are a number of excellent restaurants in the Pays Basque, including the Arrambide in the Hotel Les Pyrenees in St-jean-Pied-de-Port. It's the highest rated restaurant in the entire Basque country (Pays Basque and Pais Vasco). There is also L'Auberge Basque in Saint-Pée sur Nivelle. Both chef's speak English.
I can also highly recommend Restaurant La ferme Gourmande in Osses. Madame Alexandra does speak English.
For more information on the area, you may want to download a copy of Maribel's Guides to the Pays Basque.

Thank you all for your comments. Robert, I plan on trying all those restaurants you mentioned as the food is one of the main reasons for the trip to this region. Btw, I am of French Basque ancestry, but first trip here.
Report Abuse
The tourist industry all over France gets by in English of variable quality -- but just consider the number of Scandinavian, Polish, Russian, Dutch tourists who drive to that area every year without speaking French and sometimes questionable English. Somehow they get by and on top of that, they keep coming back.
Report Abuse
We've vacationed for 4 weeks in the Pays Basque - 2 weeks just last year. Driving is easy - unless you venture into Spain around San Sebastian. There are two names for most villages & cities in Spain. That makes things very confusing (long story - we got lost heading in the wrong direction but thinking we were heading in the correct direction following a "vague" city direction sign).
Our four favorite restaurants on the French side:
- Arrambide in the Hotel Les Pyrenees in St-Jean-Pied-de-Port.
- L'Auberge Basque in Saint-Pée sur Nivelle.
see Robert's comments
- Table des Freres Ibarboure - perhaps our favorite
- Auberge du Cheval Blanc in Bayonne

If your are of French Basque decent, mention it. There will be a world of difference in how you are received.
If you are an American or Canadian, then you need to belong to N.A.B.O., the NORTH AMERICAN BASQUE ORGANIZATIONS (www.nabasque.org). We have several members here in Washington State from the Basse-Navarre region, as well as from Navarra, both of which were part of the Kingdom of Navarra, one of the original kingdoms of Spain and where all of the best pelota players come from.

Robert and Biarritz Taxi...thank you. Although I am not a card carrying member of NABO, I know of it. And for many year, I was on the Board of Directors and my father a founder of a Basque club in southern California. I have a reservation for three nights in Ainhoa...my grandfathr is from Itxassou which I understand is less than 20km away...So I plan to spend 2-3 days just wandering around. I would like to include St Jean Pied de Port, Saint Etienne-de-Baigorry, Urepel, Aldudes, and Bidarray. These are all places that people I know from California come from. Do you think these can all be one or two day trips from Ainhoa? Thanks for your help.

By Joel Mathis, Macworld | Nov 11, 2016 11:20 AM PT Share All Slides SLIDEFEATURED PRODUCTS New iOS apps of the week Arp Oddyssei Adobe Photoshop Bear Google IFTTT The Trail Workfrom Others of note Share this Slideshow Direct link: New iOS apps of the week This week's roundup includes an app that reproduces the sounds of a famous 1970s synthesizer. Read on! Arp Oddyssei Arp Oddyssei ($20, iPhone and iPad) is an app built for a particular kind of music nerd. Love the sound of the 1972 ARP Odyssey analog synthesizer? (Here's a demo on YouTube.) This app is a "complete recreation" of that machine and the groovy future sounds it made—plus a few new effects have been added, thanks to the miracle of 21st century technology. Adobe Photoshop Adobe Photoshop (freemium, iPhone and iPad) launched in Version 5.0 this week, unveiling a new feature that lets users easily create "high-quality" photo collages. Also new: Integration with Google Photos—users can select pics from their Google account to edit in the app. Bear Bear (freemium, iPhone and iPad) " is a beautiful, flexible writing app for crafting notes and prose." You can create quick notes, code snippets, or in-depth essays. The app also includes a focus mode to help you concentrate, as well as advanced Markdown and other markup options that are an online writer's best friend. You can even stay on task by adding to-dos to individual notes. It's also available for the Mac. Google The research giant has let loose with a couple of big app updates in recent days. Gmail (free, iPhone and iPad) has a new look and one killer new feature: "Undo send"—the ability to call back that too-hastily sent message. Calendar (free, iPhone and iPad) has added a month view, as well as a week view in landscape mode, along with other updates. IFTTT IFTTT (free, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch) has been revamped, replacing its old "recipes" with new "Applets" from Facebook, Instagram, Google, Amazon Alexa, Nest, Fitbit, BMW, Slack, Twitter, and hundreds of other services. Say the makers: "Applets can do everything that Recipes could—and much more. They bring your services together, creating new experiences that you can unlock with a single switch." The Trail If The Trail (freemium, iPhone and iPad) reminds you a bit of the old "Oregon Trail" game, but with better graphics,you're not alone. The aim of this game? "Set forth to reach the town of Eden Falls - explore, craft, collect, trade, discover, and eventually settle and build." The good news? You're unlikely to die of dysentery. Workfrom This is the perfect app for the gig economy. Workfrom (free, iPhone) lets you discover great places to sit down with your laptop and get some work done—in more than 1,200 cities around the world—assuming, of course, you're not working from home or in an office.

Daigotsu Endo was an undead bushi of the Spider Clan.
Endo's Death Edit
Endo, whose original clan was not known, raised as an undead after an arrow killed him. [1]
Colonies Edit
In 1200 in the Month of the Hare, Endo was tasked by the Spider Clan Champion Daigotsu Kanpeki to act as a liaison to the Spider Undead Legions and construct a new Spider stronghold in the jungle wilderness of the Colonies. Endo was told to make the Stronghold difficult to find and easy to defend but also to make it inhabitable by living troops. [2]
Rise of Jigoku Edit
As part of the Spider rebellion against the Empire, Endo stormed the House of Ignorant Bliss, a private theatre owned by Daigotsu Meikuko. The Spider killed the Dragon oversees there, and he personally took care of Kitsuki Kira. The Susumu Daimyo Susumu Kuroko, her yojimbo Daigotsu Atsushi, and Meikuko were moved to safety by the undead, before they moved back to their hidden undead stronghold. [3]
Battle of the First Seal Edit
In 1200 Endo was part of the Spider army who attacked and destroyed the Rokugani defenders of the Temple of the First Seal, defeating the Kuni Daimyo Kuni Renyu during the Battle of the First Seal. [4]
Fall of Kyuden Miya Edit
This year Endo was part of an horde of ogres, goblins, oni, and other Shadowlands creature that appeared from the Shinomen Forest under the command of Kanpeki, taking Kyuden Miya. Endo beheaded the Miya Daimyo Miya Kiyokaizu. [5]

Expat Voices: Alex on living in Badhoevedorp
South African expat Alex finds some aspects of living in the Netherlands challenging, but enjoys the career opportunities the country has provided him.
Name: Alex
Nationality: German / South African
Country of residence: Netherlands
Lived in the Netherlands: 2.5 years
City/town of residence: Badhoevedorp
Date of birth: 1974-8-15
Civil status: Married
Occupation: Director Dutch Aerospace Company
Reason for moving to your new country of residence: I received an attractive job invitation.
What was your first impression of your new country of residence?
That it's similar to Germany in many ways.
What do you think of the food?
The foreign food is always good, but I cannot stand the unhealthy take-aways.
What do you think of the shopping?
Poor in terms of opening times and there's a weird fashion sense.
What do you appreciate about living in your new country of residence?
The safety and the low cost of internet.
What do you find most frustrating about living in your new country of residence?
The behaviour of the Dutch neighbours who have problems with foreigners living next to them, the unruly, loud behaviour of children, and bicyclists and drivers swerving from right to left on the highway in an instant. Also, due to the high cost of operating a car, ranging from the price of fuel to wegenbelasting, it is no fun to drive a sporty, heavy fuel guzzler as a passion in the Netherlands.
What puzzles you the most and what do you miss the most since you've moved here?
I am shocked about the stubbornness of the Dutch at times, particularly how they are prepared to go down with the ship rather than apologise, or give in and close the case. I miss respecting one another.
How does the quality of life here compare to the quality of life in other countries that you've lived in?
Very poor compared to Germany and South Africa in terms of entertainment and outgoing dynamics (not talking about Amsterdam). It can be boring after a while, with things always feeling the same and public places, like famous museums, being too expensive. Also, the country can be intolerant at times, and there are too many issues and problems with various things and people. People here can also be aggravated quickly and easily. The young people are totally bored on Friday and Saturday nights in residential areas because there is nothing to do, leaving them to make loud noises with their scooters and behave aggressively.
If you could change anything about your new country of residence, what would it be?
I would like more respect shown to each other in the neighbourhood in terms of noise, keeping the volume low, good behaviour, etc., and on the road. The behaviour neighbours and kids around older people is also mostly unacceptable.
What advice would you give to a newcomer?
Don't come unless you are single and want to hang out at classic cafes in a unique town like Amsterdam.
Would you like to add anything that we haven't addressed in the questionnaire?
What I've said above should be taken as a general guidelines, as there is not sufficient space for more detailed descriptions.

Toyota of Puyallup
Review for Toyota of Puyallup
Marilyn D. on 05/27/2014
"Best of the Best!"
Toyota of Puyallup is always first rate! I have been doing business with them for over 25 years and have had 4 Corollas from them. Their service is always outstanding! Laurie is the best service advisor and they have fabulous technicians who know what they are doing. They were quick and efficient. I know I can trust them and I won't take my car anywhere else!

A recipe from Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed sounded interesting because I have been looking for ways to include more Omega-3's in our diet. The whole wheat and flaxseed in this recipe intrigued me, so I made a couple of adaptations and tried it. It was nice!

Bill Murray: Murray & 'Ghostbusters 3′
February 16, 2012 by staff
Bill Murray: Murray & 'Ghostbusters 3′, Bill Murray may not appear should any 'Ghostbusters 3′ film be forthcoming, it's been suggested by his co-star from the original two films Dan Aykroyd.
The last film was way back in 1989 but that hasn't stopped the clamour for another sequel with nostalgia seemingly ever more in vogue as the 21st century grinds on. Aykroyd conducted a webcast with movie magazine Empire and suggested that both he and the third Ghost Buster, Rick Moranis, were interested in resurrecting the series.
"If we can get the script to Ghostbusters 3 right, then it would definitely have Moranis as a major component. None of us would want to do the movie without having him [Rick Moranis] as a participant," said Aykroyd to Empire.
However, it would appear that Murray has no interest in the role, with rumors that he sent his co-star back a copy of the script shredded up alongside the note "No-one wants to pay money to see fat, old men chasing ghosts." Aykroyd strongly denied that had been the case, but did admit it was unlikely Murray would be involved.
