Harmonic Spectrum MediaCenter Adds SSD OptionUp to 4TB
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on 2011.12.06
Harmonic Inc. introduced Omneon Spectrum MediaCenter SSD, adding SSD technology to the company's midrange multichannel media server.
Featuring integrated storage plus Spectrum MediaPort modularity and scalability, MediaCenter SSD is a modular server system offering a choice of SSD or HDD storage. The system provides performance and reliability for broadcasters and remote playout facilities requiring from four to 12 channels in a single video server configuration.
"MediaCenter SSD extends the Spectrum product line to offer even higher levels of reliability and availability for the most demanding playout applications," said Mark Cousins, product line manager for media servers at Harmonic Inc. "While maintaining the flexibility and robust design for which the Spectrum line is known, MediaCenter SSD gives media companies access to a larger-scale server system boasting the many benefits of SSD storage."
The 2-RU MediaCenter SSD chassis offers up to 4 TB of usable storage in several SSD configurations, allowing broadcasters to choose the capacity appropriate for their needs. The system supports up to 12 channels at 50 Mbps, with 600 Mbps total real-time bandwidth available. SSD storage reduces operational costs, as it requires less power and cooling, and it also operates more quietly than HDD-based systems.
Like its HDD counterpart, MediaCenter SSD is compatible with all other members of the Spectrum product line. It also ensures media exchange and the same support for third-party systems such as automation, media management, playout control, and editing systems. The system operates with all Spectrum-compatible software applications, APIs, and media formats, and it supports up to six externally connected Spectrum MediaPort I/O modules for real-time ingest and playout of video and audio content. Equipped with integrated storage, the system not simplifies deployment by eliminating external fiber channel storage cabling, and also reduces space and power requirements by collapsing the rack space required for ingest and playout.
The Spectrum MediaCenter SSD was introduced at the Inter BEE show in Tokyo, Nov. 16-18.

Cleveland gets the 2016 Republican National Convention, the return of Lebron James to the Cavaliers and potentially stricter gun control measures if the city council approves a package being pushed by Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson (D) this week.
The proposed ordinance would limit gun purchases to one per person per three months; prohibit gun owners from leaving firearms in an area accessible to minors; and create a registry in the city that would require convicted gun offenders to register with police for four years.
The ordinance would further bring back past laws such as requiring school officials to notify police when a weapon is found on school property, allow people to voluntarily surrender guns to police without penalty and banning the sale and manufacturing of gun replicas.
The pending laws prompted large protest Sunday afternoon, The Plain Dealer reported.
Those opposing the new restrictions carried rifles and wore NRA paraphernalia, the paper said, while those supporting the new laws were described as "flower children" who "carried anti-gun signs, and danced to the beat of a tambourine."
"The mayor should have a right to tailor laws to the city of Cleveland to restrict gun access to minors," Ariel Clayton, a 26-year-old anti-gun protester told the newspaper.
Already the potential law is facing legal questions.
"The United States Constitution, Ohio Constitution, state laws or federal laws are the only means by which regulation may be imposed on firearms in the state of Ohio," Ohioans for Concealed Carry president Jeff Garvas wrote in a letter Friday to Cleveland law director Barbara Langhenry, according to the Plain Dealer.
Ohioans for Concealed Carry plans to file a suit against the proposal's constitutionality if it passes, Legislative Director Chuck LaRosa said.
The Ohio Supreme Court ruled in 2010 that the Ohio state legislatures can pass a statewide law that blocked much of what Cleveland and other Ohio cities had passed that banned "assault weapons" and required registration of handguns.
If the ordinances pass, and litigation is prolonged, it could overlap with the 2016 convention, putting gun control on the national agenda. Though gun control is typically a losing issue for Democrats, it's also a polarizing enough issue that Republicans would likely prefer to avoid talking about during a convention when the goal is to sell their presidential nominee to the public.

On Tuesday, Sept. 17, Penn State Schuylkill is hosting Kenneth A. Womack, professor of English and integrative arts and senior associate dean of academic affairs, arts and humanities at Penn State Altoona. Womack is the 2013-14 Penn State Laureate. In his multimedia, interactive presentation, he traces the band's emerging songwriting practices, recording artistry, and musicianship from their early, primitive recordings through the aesthetic heights of "Abbey Road" at the twilight of their career. Womack illustrates the group's artistic growth through a wide range of musical and filmic illustrations.
The program will begin at 12:30 p.m. in the R. Michael Fryer Conference Center at Penn State Schuylkill. The public is invited to attend. Light refreshments will be served.
Womack is the author of three novels: "John Doe No. 2 and the Dreamland Motel" (2010), which earned ForeWord Reviews' Bronze Award for Literary Fiction; "The Restaurant at the End of the World" (2012), which earned a gold Medal from the Independent Publisher Book Awards for Best Regional Fiction; and "Playing the Angel" (forthcoming, 2013). Womack also is the author or editor of numerous works of nonfiction, including "Long and Winding Roads: The Evolving Artistry of the Beatles" (2007) and "The Cambridge Companion to the Beatles" (2009), which was named as The Independent's "Music Book of the Year." His latest Beatles-oriented work, "The Beatles Encyclopedia: Everything Fab Four," will be released in February 2014, in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary or the group's legendary appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show."
As the 2013-14 Penn State Laureate, Womack is available to provide multimedia presentations for a wide range of academic, community, and civic groups and organizations. He has several other presentations on the Beatles and on other topics.

B. Stability of Message Queue Interfaces
E. Frequently Used Command Utility Commands
This section describes the tools you use to configure and manageMessage Queue broker services. The tools fall into two categories:
Message Queue's built-in administration tools include both command line and GUI tools:
All Message Queue utilities are accessible via a command line interface. Utility commands share common formats, syntax conventions, and options. These utilities allow you to perform various administrative tasks, as noted below, and therefore can require different administrative permissions:
The Broker utility (imqbrokerd) starts up brokers and specifies their configuration properties, including connecting them together into a cluster. Permissions: User account that initially started the broker.
The Command utility (imqcmd) controls brokers and their resources and manages physical destinations. Permissions: Message Queue admin user account.
The Object Manager utility (imqobjmgr) manages provider-independent administered objects in an object store accessible via the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI). Permissions: Object store (flat-file or LDAP server) access account.
The Database Manager utility (imqdbmgr) creates and manages databases for persistent storage that conform to the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) standard. Permissions: JDBC database manager account.
The User Manager utility (imqusermgr) populates a file-based user repository for user authentication and authorization. Permissions: user account that initially started the broker.
The Service Administrator utility ( imqsvcadmin) installs and manages a broker as a Windows service. Permissions: Administrator.
The Key Tool utility (imqkeytool) generates self-signed certificates for Secure Socket Layer (SSL) authentication. Permissions: root user (Solaris and Linux platforms) or Administrator (Windows platform).
The executable files for the above command line utilities are in the IMQ_HOME/bin directory.
See Chapter 16, Command Line Reference for detailed information on the use of these utilities.
The Message Queue Administration Console combines some of the capabilities of the Command and Object Manager utilities. You can use it to perform the following tasks:
Connect to and control a broker remotely
Create and manage physical destinations
Create and manage administered objects in a JNDI object store
However, you cannot use the Administration Console to perform such tasks as starting up a broker, creating broker clusters, managing a JDBC database or a user repository, installing a broker as a Windows service, or generating SSL certificates. For these, you need the other command line utilities (Broker, Database Manager, User Manager, Service Administrator, and Key Tool), which cannot operate remotely and must be run on the same host as the broker they manage (see Figure 1-1).
Figure 1-1 Local and Remote Administration Utilities
See Chapter 2, Quick-Start Tutorial for a brief, hands-on introduction to the Administration Console. More detailed information on its use is available through its own help facility.
To serve customers who need a standard programmatic means to monitor and access the broker, Message Queue also supports the Java Management Extensions (JMX) architecture, which allows a Java application to manage broker resources programmatically.
Resources include everything that you can manipulate using the Command utility (imqcmd) and the Message Queue Admin Console: the broker, connection services, connections, destinations, durable subscribers, transactions, and so on.
Management includes the ability to dynamically configure and monitor resources, and the ability to obtain notifications about state changes and error conditions.
JMX is the Java standard for building management applications. Message Queue is based on the JMX 1.2 specification, which is part of JDK 1.5.
For information on the broker's JMX infrastructure and how to configure the broker to support JMX client applications,, see Appendix D, JMX Support.
To manage a Message Queue broker using the JMX architecture, see Oracle GlassFish Server Message Queue 4.5 Developer's Guide for JMX Clients.

Rumours about various manufacturers have been flying around lately, the newest rumour being Foxconns' imminent cessation of making branded motherboards. DigiTimes has spotted several things that peaked their curiosity, and seem to think that while Foxconn may continue to make motherboards or at least components, but they would not be sold under the Foxconn brand. Of course, Foxconn says that they had never heard of any of this.

Leave my quarterback alone.
That's what Seattle Seahawks receiver Mike Williams said in so many words when addressing reporters on Monday.
Williams and the rest of his teammates have heard the constant criticism streaming from columns, blogs and sports talk radio aimed at quarterback Tarvaris Jackson. And Williams defended his quarterback as the Seahawks begin preparation for their season opener Sunday at San Francisco.
"It's kind of unbelievable," Williams said. "If it's overwhelming for a teammate, then it has to be enough for him. I just kind of want to tell everybody, 'Back the hell up.' Let him play. Let him have his shot to work and go out here and do his thing."
Jackson's play hasn't exactly inspired confidence in the Seahawks' fan base during exhibition play.
The starting offense managed to score 13 points with Jackson at quarterback during the preseason in a little over a game's worth of plays, with the lone touchdown coming against Denver's second-team defense.
In exhibitions, Jackson completed 32 of 55 passes (58.2 percent) for 269 yards (58.2 percent), with one touchdown and two interceptions. He finished with a 61.9 passer rating and was sacked seven times.
But playing behind a young, inexperienced line, Jackson never had a clean pocket to step into and push the ball downfield.
"Up until the last preseason game, we all agree that the offensive line and the backs, we didn't really do a good enough job of protecting him and giving him enough time to go out there and show what he can do," running back Leon Washington said. "So you see what happened in the Oakland game. We really placed an emphasis on protecting him and keeping him upright, and he was able to drive us down the field and make plays.
"So we don't pay any attention to that at all. Football is a team sport."
Added Williams: "Rule No. 1 is to protect the team – so you always do that. It is what it is. Everyone has an opinion. But the only ones that count are in this locker room. He's been voted a captain by this team, so that obviously lets you know how the team feels about him."

MACON — Herman Cain repeatedly brought Georgia Republicans to their feet cheering as he brought his presidential campaign to the state party's convention today.
He promised to draw on management skills developed in 40 years in business. Those ideas included immediately lowering taxes, a one-year holiday on payroll taxes and then switch to the Fair Tax plan for replacing the income tax with a national sales tax.
"It's time to tell the people the truth, lower taxes are good for the economy, and we don't have any intention of hurting old people, children or puppy dogs," said Cain, a one-time chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank.
He also called for privatizing Social Security and giving states authority to enforce immigration laws. And, he would repeal the federal health reform as one example of the crises the country is mired in.
"You and I know we have become a nation of crises," he said, listing economic, energy, entitlement-spending, immigration and national-security crises. "Most of all, we have a deficiency of leadership crisis in the White House."
Cain plans to announce his candidacy next Saturday at an Atlanta rally. Although he's not well funded and hasn't served in elective office, his blunt talk and quips have been gaining a following among conservatives in some early-primary states.
Another native son, Newt Gingrich, addressed some of the delegates Friday night at the party's sold-out Victory Dinner. Gingrich was the party's only member in the congressional delegation in the early years of his two-decades in office and the party's darling in those years.
"I'm delighted to be home," he said.
But many of the delegates got involved in politics after Gingrich resigned his seat in 1998.
Cain launched his presidential run after listeners to his radio show urged him. His evening show on clear-channel WSB-AM began after his unsuccessful run for the U.S. Senate in 2004 when he lost the GOP primary to then-U.S. Rep. Johnny Isakson. His first moment in the national spotlight was as a CEO of Godfather's Pizza when he challenged President Bill Clinton at a televised town hall meeting on that president's health reform proposal.
Cain grew up in Atlanta where his father was a chauffeur for the Coca-Cola Co. chief. Cain started his climb up the corporate ladder at Coke after six years in the U.S. Navy. From Coke, he went to Pillsbury and then was instrumental in a management buyout of Godfather's Pizza.
He has degrees in math and computer science.

President Barack Obama heaped praise on House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi Saturday night, and predicted she will be back in the speaker's chair when 2013 rolls around.
"I am biased, but I think Nancy [Pelosi] was one of the best speakers of the house this country ever had," Obama said after the California Democrat introduced him at a gala for the National Italian American Foundation.
"She was no doubt the best Italian American speaker of the house we ever had," he continued. "And I believe that she will be the best speaker of the house again in 2013."
Pelosi, the first female speaker of the U.S. House, lost the title to Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) after the 2010 midterm elections.
Obama made several other comments to try and connect with the Italian American audience, lamenting at one point, "I do not, in fact, have any Italian ancestry. Not all of us are that lucky."
"I can't cook as well as any of your grandmothers," he added. "Michelle won't let me have seconds or thirds anymore."
"So all I've got to offer is a last name that ends in a vowel," Obama said. "That's all I've got."

Ode to Ochrasy, which was produced by Owen Morris (Oasis), came out last fall in most European countries, where it has already gone gold. The record finds this five-piece giving us more of what they do best: melodic, soulful, rhythmic, and intense rock songs with occasionally broken-English lyrics that are still somehow poetic, all played with abandon. Speaking of playing, the band has a spring tour lined up, beginning with an appearances at SXSW and Coachella. All post-Coachella shows will take place indoors, be with South Carolinians The Films, and won't subject attendees to desperate-to-end-you-life temperatures.

IRELAND'S internet domain authority says Irish pages belonging to Yahoo and Google were briefly hijacked following an unauthorised change to their registrar's account.
The IE Domain Registry, which administers Ireland's .ie internet code, said in a statement that visitors to two high-profile Irish websites were redirected to "allegedly fraudulent addresses" on Tuesday.
The registry didn't identify the sites by name, but Irish internet users flooded the web with complaints about www.google.ie and www.yahoo.ie.
Google said in a statement that some users might be having trouble accessing its Irish site and said it was working to fix the problem.
Yahoo did not immediately return several messages seeking comment.
San Francisco-based MarkMonitor, the registrar responsible for both addresses, blamed lax standards at the Irish registry level for the incident.
That was a sentiment backed by Michele Neylon, the chief executive of Ireland's Blacknight web hosting company.
"It wouldn't be that hard to hijack a high-profile .ie domain name," he said in a telephone interview.
"What happened today could've been a lot worse and could happen to any number of big names."

Look at the poor fellow's peeling skins. The authorities must really do something. Atrocities like that cannot be allowed in Malaysia. The authorities must charge those police who are responsible for this.
Change will be difficult. For those who can pray, please pray for meaningful reforms for Malaysia.

|Minimum Stay
The Toll House is a unique Grade II listed property dating back approximately two hundred years. It is unusual due to the symmetrical octagonal shape, and it is situated on an island surrounded by the roads at the junction. Toll House retains many original features including the lovely rounded arched window recesses. The Toll House has two bedrooms upstairs (one double and one single bed) and sleeps two people.
Toll House is situated on the outskirts of the village of Exebridge which lies on the border between Devon and Somerset. The name Exebridge comes from the bridge over the River Exe, which is just a short distance along the road, beside the village pub, The Anchor Inn, which also serves food.
Toll House is approximately 2.5 miles from Dulverton, which is known as the Southern Gateway to Exmoor; it's a centre for walking, riding and fishing, and is well served by several good restaurants, pubs and antique shops as well as an excellent range of local shops including small supermarket, butcher, greengrocer, baker, delicatessen and fish & chip shop.
In the other direction it's approximately 3 miles from Toll House to the historic town of Bampton, which is is a small town but has a surprising range of local amenities including pubs, restaurants, tea rooms, late-opening supermarket, post office, butcher, greengrocer, chemist, and a range of other shops. Bampton has quite a history from the Romans to its early Saxon origins, the Norman castle, the wool and pony trade, the 12th century church, the quarrying of the local stone; now it is a thriving centre used by locals and visitors alike. This small and vibrant town is located in mid-Devon; nearby Exmoor National Park, Wimbleball Lake and the Grand Western Canal Country Park provide wonderful opportunities walks, cycle rides and activities.

The bad news: Diabetes is one of the most costly and burdensome chronic diseases of our time.
The good news: According to current research, type 2 diabetes may be prevented or delayed when certain lifestyle goals are achieved:
Lose weight if you are overweight. Being overweight greatly increases your chances of developing type 2 diabetes. A weight loss of just 5 to 7 percent significantly reduces your risk.
Eat no more than 30 percent of your total daily calories from fat. Here's how to calculate: Divide the number of calories you eat each day by 30. That will give your approximate daily fat allowance in grams. For example, if you eat 1500 calories a day, your total daily fat allowance is 50 grams. (Fat grams are listed on food labels.)
Limit your intake of saturated fat to no more than 10 percent of your total calories. That's about 15 to 20 grams a day if you eat between 1500 to 2000 calories a day. You can find saturated fat (in grams) on food labels as well.
Eat more dietary fiber. Since fiber is only found in plant foods, this is a smart way to get more fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grain cereals and breads, beans and legumes into your diet. The goal: 15 grams of fiber for each 1000 calories you eat.
Exercise at least 150 minutes each week. Thirty minutes a day, five days a week is a reasonable goal.
Lifestyle changes can stop or slow the progression of a serious disease. That's the most encouraging news of all.

Ducks pull away to beat Cougars, 68-61
E.J. Singler scored 19 points and 16th-ranked Oregon rallied from a 10-point halftime deficit to beat Washington State and stay unbeaten in the Pac-12.
EUGENE, Ore. — The last time No. 16 Oregon was 6-0 in league play, the Ducks were known as the Webfoots and the league was called the Pacific Coast Conference.
Oregon (17-2, 6-0 Pac-12) reached that mark for the first time since 1925-26 on Wednesday with a 68-61 victory over Washington State, a win that required a rally from the Ducks' largest halftime deficit of the season.
E.J. Singler had 19 points — 14 in the second half — for Oregon. The Ducks trailed 39-29 at halftime before pulling out their eighth consecutive victory. Arsalan Kazemi added 16 points and freshman Damyean Dotson had 11 points and a career-high nine rebounds.
The win was Oregon's 19th straight at home, tied for the sixth-longest active streak in the nation, and kept them alone in first place in the Pac-12.
"All that matters is we got the 'W.' We have to have the mindset that we're the hunted now," Singler said.
Mike Ladd had 19 points and Brock Motum scored 14 for the Cougars (10-9, 1-5), who shot just 27.3 percent in the second half.
"It seemed like they turned the heat up in the second half," Washington State coach Ken Bone said of the Ducks. "There's a reason why they're ranked 16th in the country."
Oregon opened the second half on a 9-0 run. A breakaway dunk by Carlos Emory trimmed WSU's lead to 39-38 with 15:33 left.
Two free throws by Singler at the 11:45 mark gave the Ducks their first lead, 48-46.
"I was just feeling it," Singler said. "Some of the guys gave me some good passes, and I knocked down the shots."
"We bounced back and found a way," Oregon coach Dana Altman said. "But you maybe get one of those a year, or two of those a year where you're really outplayed in the first half. You get those double-digit deficits and if you think you're going to come back from those every single game, you're making a mistake."
The Cougars appeared halfway to their first win against a ranked team since beating No. 18 Washington on Jan. 30, 2011. But WSU cooled off considerably in the second half. After making 7 of 13 three-point attempts in the first half, the Cougars missed all 11 in the second half.

TicketCity sent over this cool infographic about the most engaged NHL fanbases. And since the Bruins came in fourth and we love hockey infographics we figured we'd share:
Top 10 Most Active Fan Bases in the NHL created by TicketCity
Press Release:
The Toronto Maple Leafs hold the #1 spot on the list with an especially tuned-in fan base. Online search volume for the team is the highest in the NHL with over 300,000 global monthly searches. Home games have long been one of the toughest tickets to acquire even during losing seasons, making Leafs tickets the most expensive in the league. Although slightly less social than other teams included in the top 10, more than 500,000 fans like The Maple Leafs on Facebook- a considerable community when compared to other top global brands.
The enthusiasm of NHL fans on social media is easy to see when compared to other professional leagues like the NFL and Major League Baseball. While the general popularity of other leagues drives more Facebook "Likes" on team pages, Facebook's "Talking About" numbers reveal that NHL fans are more engaged with their team as fan communities three times their size. The Detroit Red Wings lead all of hockey with over 1.3 million likes on Facebook – including 80,000 fans that are "Talking About" the team on the social network (as of February 15). On Twitter the Montreal Canadiens have the largest reach with over 350,000 followers.
As a "thank you" to fans for putting up with the lockout, many NHL teams have had a multitude of concession giveaways and discounts on souvenir items to draw fans back to the games. The Pittsburgh Penguins — ranked #3 on the list and #10 in the league for home game attendance — offered all merchandise available for half-price during the first four games of the season. Fans responded by purchasing 8,680 jerseys and 19,950 t-shirts.
"The teams included on this list have managed to activate their fans in a variety of different ways," says Rafael Rivas, Chief Strategy Officer at TicketCity. "Whether a fan "Likes" a post on Facebook or decides to attend a game, top NHL teams leverage these experiences to continue to build their fan communities. It's those experiences that enable certain teams to maintain their success in the league post-lockout, regardless of performance."
No real shockers on this list. They're all major hockey markets, Original 6 teams, and team's that have been to the Cup Finals recently. Only the St. Louis Blues don't fit this description really. Not overly shocked that they made the list but it's cool to see a team below the Mason Dixon line make the list. Bettman's smiling somewhere. Poor Kings. Not even winning a Cup last year and having a hilarious twitter account seems to engage their fans into this list.

|Rebecca Bross of the United States performs during the beam final en route to a silver medal at the World Championships (Matt Dunham/Associated Press)
Mustafina makes her mark
ROTTERDAM, Netherlands — With less than two years until the 2012 Summer Olympics, all-around champions Aliya Mustafina of Russia and Kohei Uchimura of Japan established themselves as the favorites for the London Games.
The 16-year-old Mustafina, in her first year of eligibility for major competitions, won two gold and three silvers in six events at the world championships, a stunning arrival on the international scene that highlighted Russia's return as a top power after several lean years.
Uchimura overcame an inflamed shoulder that worsened during the nine-day competition that concluded yesterday to successfully defend his all-around title from London last year, and added team and two event medals for four overall. The 21-year-old was among the youngest of the top men. And both should benefit from the international gymnastics federation's move toward bigger rewards for elegance, with both displaying airy grace in the toughest exercises at the Ahoy Arena.
Overall, China again had the depth to lead the medals table with nine, including four gold, with Zhang Chenglong winning the concluding high bar event ahead of local favorite Epke Zonderland. Russia was second with Mustafina winning five of its six medals. The United States came in third, also with six medals, with Alicia Sacramone of Winchester earning gold in the vault.
It appeared as if Mustafina would become the first woman since Romania's Daniela Silivas at the 1988 Olympics to get six medals from six events, but the grind of competing caught up with her on the beam yesterday.
On a rare fumble, she wavered and then fell off when it seemed she could have recovered.
"I didn't have enough strength. I just lost balance,'' Mustafina said. "I was no longer 100 percent on the beam.''
It left the way open for Romania's Ana Porgras to take gold ahead of American Rebecca Bross, the all-around bronze medalist. Bross, 17, won four medals, two silver and two bronze. She also looks like a major contender for 2012.
"I hope it keeps going strong in the years to come,'' she said.
Combined with the anticipated return of Olympic all-around champion Nastia Liukin, Bross could help set up the US team as a main challenger.
Showing her resilience, Mustafina came back from the beam for a last show, on the floor.
Fatigue also showed in the concluding event, where she took an uncharacteristic sidestep. But her jumps and leaps of unmatched elegance were enough for one last medal before going home to study.
Mustafina leaves with the same medal total that Russian great Svetlana Khorkina won at the 2001 world championships. But Mustafina said through a translator that she isn't trying to emulate anyone.

Founders FCU to Pay Back $10 Million
Members of the Lancaster, S.C.-based Founders Federal Credit Union will get $10 million in bonus dividend payouts this year, the CU announced.
The 190,000-member, $1.6 billion CU said it will distribute the $10 million – the largest bonus dividend sum in the credit union's history – among savers and borrowers on Nov. 30.
"In 2011, many financial institutions are creating additional customer fees and searching for ways to further charge consumers," Founders FCU President/CEO Bruce Brumfield said. "Founders FCU has no stockholders involved in our decisions. Instead, we are owned by our members and operate under the leadership of a volunteer Board of Directors, so our success is our members' success.
"With the recent turmoil surrounding the financial services industry, our ability to distribute this bonus dividend is especially important. And, we'll do it before the holiday season – when our members need it most."
Founders FCU's 2011 dividend announcement brings its total amount of dividend payouts to $30 million over the past 11 years, the South Carolina credit union said. Founder paid its members $6 million in 2008 and 2006, $4 million in 2003 and $2 million in 2001 and 2000.

The Trainwreck of Justice League Won't Make DC Hit the Brakes
Recently the pricing details of Microsoft Surface tablet were leaked online and revealed that 32GB version of the Surface RT without the Touch Cover will go for $499, while the with cover version is for $599. This revelation has also got the world talking about what should be the apt pricing for an Apple iPad mini. Going by the leaks, the 8GB Wi-Fi only variants of iPad mini might cost €249, while the 16GB Wi-Fi iPad mini will cost €349.
To get a better perspective, we quiz a few analysts in regards to what according to them should be the price for Apple iPad mini and how bullish they are about this new tablet.
According to John Strand of Stand Consult, "I think Apple will price its iPad mini somewhere between the iPhone and the iPad as I believe that Apple need to increase the numbers of products and price points." Only logical. This means that the new iPad mini that Apple might be outing will range somewhere between $199 (which is the price for an iPhone 5 on contract) and $500 (the price of WiFi only iPad).
While Stephen Baker, Vice President of Industry Analysis for Consumer Technology is more specific number as he states that the price of the Apple iPad mini will start from $299.
Commenting on this, Richard Ptak, Co-founder and Managing Partner at Ptak, Noel & Associates says, "Apple will make a mistake if it tries to protect the iPod from cannibalisation by over-pricing the iPad mini. The 'Job's Mystique' convinced Apple aficionados that they were 'super cool' by paying big bucks for an Apple product. With Jobs gone, it's only a question of time before that mystique fades away. Everyone is expecting Cook to price the mini so that it will be more expensive than the iPod - I think it's quite possible the mini could come in at a lower price point, say $199 and blow away the market.
Ptak feels that if iPad mini is indeed at this price point, it would fly off-the-shelves. "It wouldn't be hard to see eight or even 12 Million units sold in a year if they come in at a low price point. Hell, even I might buy one then," jokes Ptak. On a serious note, he adds, "But if Apple iPad mini is priced at $325 or higher, the first year sales will be about 2.5 million to 5 million".
Baker of NPD refrained from giving any specific sales number for the new iPad mini but said, "I believe the mini will be a very strong seller in its segment".
Strand of Stand Consult however, is not very convinced about the sales potential of this tablet. As he puts it, "I believe that the majority of the consumers will go for the "real stuff" and buy the iPhone and the iPad. It will be interesting to see about it will cannibalise on the iPhone and the iPad sale or whether it will expand the market and Apple's market share".
There is no denying that there are plenty of tablet options available in the market and Apple iPad mini will have to face stiff competition from Google's Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire, so do the analysts feel that Apple's new device will be able to take the competition head on?
NPD's Baker does not feel that Apple doesn't need to worry about the competition. "Don't think Apple has to compete with the Kindle Fire or Google Nexus, I think they have to compete with (iPad mini). Once Apple comes out with a competitive product at a competitive price point those brands have to change from offering a lower cost alternative to the iPad to showing what they offer that is different from the iPad beyond just price, since Apple has now taken most of their price advantage away," he elaborates.
Ptak is not so convinced that Apple iPad mini will blow off the competition. He says, "I think Apple will be competitive. However, I'm not at all convinced it will blow away the competition, especially if they come in at a much higher price than the Fire or Nexus - we'll have to see what they finally deliver. The demand is for smaller, lighter, better quality, more features - still this is a 'low-end' tablet - Apple will have a (slightly) larger screen with less resolution - which argues against a much higher price and Apple can't afford to 'handicap' a low end product by cutting quality or reducing features."
Strand too feels that Apple should prepare itself for tough competition, "The tablet market will me more fragmented, as it is not the first mini tablet to hit the shelves. It will probably compete with Samsung and Kindles. I believe that Apple iPad mini will get tough competition. Kindle users are extreme loyal to Amazon and so are the users of Android."
We'll find out soon enough when Apple's iPad mini goes on sale. Are you looking forward to its release?

Middlesbrough 2-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers
Gaston Ramirez scored twice to send Middlesbrough top of the Championship with victory over Wolves.
Ramirez first punished Wolves for failing to clear his initial free-kick, moving into the box unmarked to nod home from Adam Clayton's cross.
Visiting keeper Carl Ikeme kept Jordan Rhodes out before Ramirez added a fine second with a curled finish after swapping passes with George Friend.
Wolves rarely threatened before Joe Mason's header went in off Ben Gibson.
Boro, who missed the chance to go top of the table on Tuesday with defeat by Blackburn Rovers, can be overtaken at the summit on Saturday if Burnley can beat local rivals Rovers themselves.
Defeat is Wolves' fourth in five games, with Kenny Jackett's side taking just two points from 15 away from home dating back to 1 January.
Albert Adomah twice threatened for Boro early on, before on-loan Southampton midfielder Ramirez met Clayton's cross to open the scoring on 23 minutes.
Uruguayan Ramirez was a constant menace and nearly added a quick second, while Wolves laboured to make any sort of impression on Aitor Karanka's men in response.
Ikeme made a superb save to see Rhodes' effort over the bar immediately after the break, and even though the visitors were more industrious through Nathan Byrne and Bjorn Sigurdarson, their first shot on target came after Ramirez had made it 2-0.
Wolves, however, did manage to end their three-game goalless run on the road, with Mason's header deflected beyond the diving Boro goalkeeper Dimi Konstantopoulos a minute from time.
Middlesbrough head coach Aitor Karanka:
"We needed to win again. We had chances and two goals. Ramirez is getting better every game. I knew he was a good player at Southampton and from the Premier League. After January we are a better team than we were last season: one year more experience, more quality, better players.
"But always I think promotion is decided in the last few games. We only think of winning our games, not about promotion and where we are in the table.
"We won't win it easy; there are big games ahead. Hull, Burnley, Brighton, Derby are our rivals. We have eight games in a month so we have to stay motivated and ready to play."
Wolves head coach Kenny Jackett:
"The top 10 of the Championship is a very high standard. The likes of Middlesbrough have done very well to secure a high number of players here, very good quality players. When you look through the squad, you think who can play, and they have two players in every position of a similar ability.
"I felt Albert Adomah and George Friend down Boro's left and our right-hand side were dominant. It opened the hole for Ramirez to come off the front. We never really got hold of that triangle.
"We finished quite strongly, got a goal back, but in the last few minutes we couldn't really get a run at a very strong defence.
"I was disappointed we weren't able to kick on from the weekend, but it is a tall order coming here and winning."

New York, February 20, 2013 -- The liquidity of speculative-grade borrowers in the US continued
to show strength in January as Moody's Liquidity-Stress Index
(LSI) declined in the month to 3.0%, a new record
low, says Moody's Investors Service in its February SGL Monitor.
The LSI has remained at 3.0% through early February.
The previous record low was 3.1%, set in July 2012.
"The LSI has held in a low and tight range over the past year,
staying between 3.0% and 4.2% as companies
have taken advantage of accessible credit markets and low interest rates
to refinance pending maturities," says John Puchalla,
a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer.
High-yield bond issuance has continued at a strong pace so far
in 2013, Puchalla reports, as the companies continue to find
ready markets for debt refinancing.
Risks to the generous liquidity conditions, however, persist.
They include weak corporate earnings, a worsening of Europe's
sovereign debt problems, and debates over the US debt ceiling and
spending cuts, says Moody's.
A leading indicator of the default rate, the low LSI is consistent
with Moody's view that the US speculative-grade will decline
to 2.5% by June, down from 3.0% in January.
The LSI measures the percentage of companies with an SGL-4 rating,
Moody's lowest speculative-grade liquidity (SGL) rating.
An SGL rating is an assessment of a speculative-grade company's
intrinsic liquidity position over the coming 12-15 months.
Moody's Covenant-Stress Index (MCSI) also declined in January,
to 2.1% from 2.3% in December. The
index is at its lowest since June and July 2012, when it stood at
1.9%, just a hair higher than the record low 1.8%

Nobuo Uematsu Not Composing For Final Fantasy VII Remake
- Categories: Games, News
- Date: Nov 8, 2015 04:54 JST
- Tags: Final Fantasy VII, Music, Nobuo Uematsu, Remakes, Square Enix
Legendary composer Nobuo Uematsu has shockingly revealed that he will not be composing the music for the highly anticipated Final Fantasy VII remake, bewildering many as to why and how Square Enix will be able to manage without Uematsu's harmonious charms.
Nobuo Uematsu delivered the depressing news by way of an interview, causing many theorists to speculate that Square Enix will have the existing soundtrack be rearranged by other capable composers, an event that could very well lead to mixed results (or is at least unlikely to improve on the original as far as fans are concerned).
Aside from the original composer being excluded, it was previously reported that the remake will also have its combat system overhauled, also bound to get under the skin of the more hardcore Final Fantasy VII fans, but Square Enix has promised that they have no intentions of drastically altering the game's genre (considering they have done that already).
The consistent bombardment of such vital changes has caused much concern amongst the game's dedicated followers, leaving many to hope that the game will still be recognizable after it all, as well as be at least half-way playable…

A PENNY off a pint at a South Tyneside pub has seen drinkers raising their glasses to a charity bonanza.
Customers at The Vigilant, in Sunderland Road, South Shields, have already raised £900 for St Clare's Hospice by donating pennies off the price of their favourite pint.
When Chancellor George Osborne knocked a penny off the price of a pint in last year's budget, management at The Vigilant saw it as the perfect way to support a good cause.
Knocking 1p off the cost of a pint, they asked customers to either pocket the money or boost a borough charity instead.
A £600 cheque was soon handed over to St Clare's Hospice – and the pennies have continued to grow into pounds.
Steven Tomkins, manager of The Vigilant, said: "After a penny was knocked off the price of a pint of beer, myself and owner Brian Campbell decided to offer customers the chance to donate the 1p saving to charity.
"And 99 per cent of our customers tell us to just put the penny in the special budget box we've made, and so far we've raised £800 altogether.
"It's a fantastic amount and we would just like to thank our customers for their support.
"We are still keeping it going, to see how much more we can raise."
Vanessa Mustard, senior fundraiser at St Clare's Hospice, in Primrose Terrace, Jarrow, said: "We were delighted when The Vigilant initially told us of their plan to fundraise by donating 1p for every pint sold, but I didn't think we or the pub really thought about how much this would amount to.
"It just goes to show how quickly all those 1p donations can add up.
"Every penny really does count and we are really grateful to all the customers for getting behind the fundraising project, but also the management at the pub for putting us forward to receive their donations."

A brilliant burst of gamma rays may have caused a mass extinction event on Earth 440 million years ago – and a similar celestial catastrophe could happen again, according to a new study.
Most gamma-ray bursts are thought to be streams of high-energy radiation produced when the core of a massive star collapses. The new computer model shows that a gamma-ray burst from as far as 6,500 light-years away could deplete the ozone layer, cause acid rain and initiate a round of global cooling.
Such a disaster may have been responsible for the mass die-off of 70 percent of the marine creatures during the Ordovician period (488 to 443 million years ago), suggests study leader Brian Thomas, an astrophysicist at Washburn University in Kansas.
The simulation also shows that a significant gamma-ray burst within range of Earth is likely every billion years or so, although the stream of radiation would have to be lined up just right to affect the planet.
The study, which has been submitted to the International Journal of Astrobiology, isn't necessarily sending other astrophysicists into a panic.
"There is certainly no harm in looking at what a gamma-ray burst might do if it were close enough to us, as this author has done. That's the way science works," said David Thompson, a NASA astrophysicist and deputy project director on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope.
But Thompson compares the risk to Earth from a future gamma-ray burst to "the danger I might face if I found a polar bear in my closet in Bowie, Maryland. It could happen, but it is so unlikely that it is not worth worrying about."
Thomas' former graduate adviser, Adrian Melott, first proposed in 2004 that a gamma-ray burst near Earth wiped out Ordovician life. Since then, both researchers have been tackling pieces of the puzzle.
According to their newest models, gamma radiation from a nearby burst would quickly deplete much of Earth's protective ozone layer, allowing increased ultraviolet radiation from the sun to reach the surface.
In the longer term, chemical reactions in the atmosphere would produce dark, nitrogen-based gases that would block the sun's heat and trigger global cooling, even as the gamma rays continued to deplete ozone and let in UV rays, the authors suggest.
Some of the pollution would fall as damaging acid rain, which can severely disrupt ecosystems.
The atmosphere might be able to recover within a decade, and a rise in DNA damage caused by increased UV exposure might pass after a few months or years, the researchers note. But other biological impacts – such as reduced ocean productivity – could linger for an unknown length of time, Thomas said.
Thomas and Melott have uncovered a pattern of higher UV radiation during the Ordovician extinction that would match cosmic bombardment over the South Pole.
Bruce Lieberman, a paleontologist at the University of Kansas, helped develop the initial theory about the Ordovician die-off but was not involved with the recent papers.
The prevailing idea is that an ice age caused the extinction event, he said, but he questions the completeness of that hypothesis, noting, "At other times, there have been ice ages without mass extinctions."
Furthermore, the ice age during the Ordovician period was comparatively short, lasting about 500,000 years before the climate cycled back to a warm spell – almost as if something unusual had set the icy period in motion.

AMSTERDAM – Several Americans crossed the lines overseas on Sunday, with Alejandro Bedoya working 66 solid minutes off the bench as Nantes rose to sixth place in France's Ligue 1 with a 3-1 derby triumph at Rennes.
The US midfielder shined in completing nearly all of his build-up passes after coming on as an injury replacement to play the wing. But Bedoya did suffer from an indelicate touch when his two big scoring chances arrived on either side of the break. The Canaries have won three of four to tentatively stand within five points of the top through eight rounds.
Next door in Belgium's Jupiler League, Sacha Kljestan set up the winner as Anderlecht topped visiting Lierse 2-0.
The former Chivas USA playmaker teed up Mauves skipper Guillaume Gillet for the 64th minute opener. The champs won their fourth straight league contest at home to sit nine points off the leaders in fourth.
The news wasn't bright out of England's Premier League, where Jozy Altidore and cellar dwellers Sunderland again came up empty despite an improved effort in a 3-1 loss to visiting Liverpool.
The power forward was active in the hold-up game, but generally lacked accurate service and fired directly at the 'keeper from distance in his best look at goal. With four consecutive defeats, Sunderland stayed bottom through six games.
Staying in England, Geoff Cameron worked a fair shift as Stoke City suffered an aggravating 1-0 home loss to early strugglers Norwich City. Now winless in three, the Potters slipped to 15th place.
Over in the Bundesliga, it was a hot-and-cold afternoon for Timothy Chandler as FC Nürnberg rallied twice for a 3-3 share at Werder Bremen.
The right back provided plenty of attacking thrust up his flank, but was also among the culpable on Bremen's opener. Though still winless through seven matches, Chandler & Co. posted their third straight draw to move out of the danger zone.

Rolling out from October 9, the DLC will include four new characters and four new stages. Dr. Bosconovitch, Unknown, Slim Bob, Miharu, Sebastian and Violet will be the new playable characters and Russia, Chile, Saudi Arabia and Magic Show will be added as new backdrops to the hard-hitting action.
In our recent review of Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Mike described Namco's brawler as "easily one of the best brawlers on the market and a triumphant return for the series."
According to Famitsu, the DLC won't include all characters and stages in the initial drop, but will be rolled out throughout October. Exact dates for the DLC have yet to be revealed.

Big Story
Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Xbox Lobby' started by SchNerd, May 23, 2013.
Wii U.
So youre willing to skip all the AAA 3rd party games? GTA V, BF4, COD and all the others that will trickle down the line in the next gen?
Yes, I'm willing to not give up my own rights.
I already don't buy BF games because its EA, no change to me.
GTA5 is current gen. I don't give a fuck about CoD.
All I would miss would be the sony exclusives.
EDIT: And Halo.
Im just using those games as examples. Im sure there will be some fantastic new IPs this gen that we dont even know about.
In history there has always been people who have revolted against new ideas and innovations.. but the power of knowledge always triumphs just look at what science has done to religion.
This is a step backwards, consumer rights are at evolution since the industrial age.
@DarthClark Well, I would just not play those.
I just don't give in to bullshit, never paid XBLG, been years since I last bought a EA game.
In all your examples, it was a gaming console doing other things, which is cool, but in the case of the Xbox One...it a glorified MS TV BOX. It's focus is not a dedicated gaming machine first and multimedia second, but Muti-media first and gaming second. That's why you see all the negativity. Deservingly so.
You saw a 1 hour reveal of the console and its amazing features and make this claim. Even before E3.. You guys are more brainless than I thought. Being beyond a gaming console is what's gonna make the X1 topple PS4. Unless Sony adopts more similar features. Sony is struggling and unless they learn to adapt Xbox will continue to lead.
The only RIGHT you have is to buy or not buy a product. What it seems to me is that you people just need to get better jobs. "omg u need internet" "you have to pay for XBL" "I can't buy used games" lol! It must be hard being broke haha!
Dude, Ive got money, Im just not a conformist, and sure as hell aint going to contribute to making the life of people who aremt rich harder.
Just like Xbox fanboys were like Microsoft press conference is going to blow Sony's out the water, now since that didn't come close to happening, they are like, just wait til E3. I bet after the PS4 kicks the XO's butt at E3, their going to be like just wait til it comes out.
Tell me, what AMAZING feature did they show? Amazing features only the xbox could do.
Nobody is saying PS4 sucks. Just the X1 because its a cable box that blocks used games, spies on you and requires an internet connection to function.
Listen... the PS4 is going to have almost all the same multi entertainment center hub features the Xbox One has. simplest reason... The biggest evolution that happened this Gen was the PS3 & 360 creating great all in one Multi functional Home Entertainment Hubs... people don't even realize just much of an evolution step we made this step and only think this Gen brought was HD and motion controls.
Yes Microsoft wasted way to much time focusing on the Home Entertainment things at the event leaving other important details very vague and cause so much moronic confusion and they they got nobody to blame but themselves... I loved 90% of the stuff they showed minus the cable part because I cable cut years ago and I'm Canadian so chances are the cable part won't be in Canada but definitely dragged on the entertainment features to long.
Only real new media function I see with next gen from this gen is running faster and multitasking.
It's so stupid for any fan to complain about these added features unless it's taking away from the games... and it hasn't all gen for the PS3 and 360 and I see it as a from of evolution much like the cell phone market. If we were really people with these complaints we would still have slip phones that only make phone calls.
Microsoft knows how to run a profitable company
Cool opinion bro
no one is complaining about the extra features, the overwhelming majority feel the X-Box One is trailing behind the PS4 so far because
A. It's lacking in games revealed in comparison to it's competitor
and B. it's hardware is 50% weaker than it's competitor's
seriously, name one person who honestly thinks it's trailing because it has "too many" features?
thats all fine and dandy but you do realizes it IS effecting the games, they have openly admitted to not targeting the highest parts because they wanted to focus more on entertainment.
Lets be realistic, the XO is no Wii U, its a powerful machine, its just that PS4 have gone more powerful again. Let's wait until we see the games to decide how big of a difference there is going to be on screen.
ok Joey
what is effecting the games? I seen no slow down of games... openly admitted what? son chances are you manipulated and twisted some sentence that was said in the last 2 days into something else completely different so you are going to have to quote things for some to understand.
edit: Nice to see you again K-Fed! glad to see you still make as much sense as years ago... muah
The gpu
You havent seen any games yet, we only know the playstation will be more powerful
[Post edited, watch the language - Troopa]
PS4 having a more powerful console is not the same as XOs games being negatively affected. By the same rationale all consoles are compromised by not being high end graphics PCs.
So long as all the players are significantly more powerful than the previous gen, horsepower has never mattered that much in a console race. PS2 was a weakling compared to Xbox yet won because it had the games.
better parts= better games
weaker parts= weaker games
... that's not the way it works.
By that rationale Aliens Colonial Marines on the PC is a better game that Mario Kart 7 on the 3DS.
Oi!!!! Sony had there own 2 hour session, noe let M$ have there second hour at E3.
Then July hehe
sorry Im always way to general on the xbox boards,
more depth larger games, understand now?
LOL I'm sorry lil Joseph that I upset you... I do plenty of research and for the most part only comment things I know at least something about. haha I roared and I non sarcastically appreciated it. still have no clue if you are talking about a real quote or a twisted quote.
haha the spaz attack from being called Joey? lol don't get bent out of shape because that's my name as well... k broseph
the K-fed comment wasn't for you... just an FYI
I take insult that you think I "manipulated and twisted some sentence" because you didn't like what you heard.
Im from new york, and am a long time jet fan so thats were the name comes from, so no " joey" didn't ruffle my jimmies or anything dood.
I know the quote youre talking about. Its from some random that works at Microsoft. What we dont know is what his version of high end graphics mean. Does he mean high end like a top of the line PC? If thats the case then no, it wont be that powerful but will be more on par with what people believe the PS4 can do.
We should all know by now that SDF'ers are so butthurt about third-party titles not being any better then 360 games, some of them running like so laggy that you'd think you were playing on a 486 PC that they now think that only exclusives are ever released on the PS3.
I worked night shift till 2am and it's now 6:42am and I have no Idea why I am still awake sooo JoJo I apologies you felt insulted because you didn't see where I said "chances are you manipulated and twisted" Maybe it's a canadian word (also the reason I have no idea about anything in regards to the jets)
whatever man same shit, your brushing off what I have to say , which is what was insulting....
The whole watch-live-TV thing is only available in America at launch. You know, the thing they focused on for the first thirty minutes of their reveal event.
all joking aside I asked a couple times what you meant... you have to forgive some of us seeing 98.5% of the posters on this lobby the last 2 days have been childish and not very bright sony fanboys twisting things to the point they claimed MS supplied the Nails for the cross.
did you mean what DarthClark just asked? if so that was a small line from a video @ 5:20 that was taken out of context (how it was that twisted out of context I dunno)
anyway don't get ur panties twisted and lighten up... have a sense of humor
Cool thats where I live. Yay me.
well I agree it sucks... cause it's not totally western no canada!
I assure you I will be plenty pissed and will be voicing my displeasure here just like I am witht he XBone features I don't like. I would not go along with just because it's Sony. I am not the type of person that will try to go out of my way to rationalize corporations making decisions I hate. I think it's very safe to say that all of us, you and me included, hope Sony doesn't go down this road. The only people that would is fanboys and that's not either of us.
They both use the same bluray format for games, so game size should not be a differentiating factor.
Maybe you're suggesting AI could be better on PS4? I'm not techhie enough to know.
Given the huge leap specs-wise from 360 and PS3 to XO and PS4 is not creating the same kind of quantum leaps graphics-wise we saw with SNES to N64, or PS2 to PS3... I'm really not convinced that the graphical differences will be anything but subtle, and due to cross platform development, only show up in exclusives anyway.
why no Canada?
to tired to read through all this random foolish fanboy gibrish... can you list the things you hope sony does have with the PS4? and just an FYI Sony main focus was pushing forward the Blu Ray format and frequently bragged and flouted the PS3 being the main do it all entertainment hub in livingrooms (which myself I dont see that as a fault). just curious if you can actual name a list.
UK here, not a country in the West but a Western country... If that makes sense.
Still, I probably won't purchase mine till at least early 2014, hopefully by then the sequel to Skyrim or (and) Fallout 3 will be announced and the TV options will be available in jolly old
I see NA and the UK as the same cultures. Honestly those are the only markets that really matter. Thats where most of the revenue is coming from.
True, very true
Well, first off, calling our conversation of the pros and cons of NextGen systems 'foolish fanboy gibrish' is a little insulting and uncalled for. That being said, the features that I don't hope are in the PS4 that are in the XBone.
Daily internet connection
Mandatory full game installs (optional is fine)
A Kinect-esque device that must always be plugged in and watching me
The inability to lend a game to a friend
The inability to rent games
Having to pay a full price 'fee' to play a used game.
Not being able to swap out a hard drive (in a few years when SSD's are cheaper and can hold more data this will be important). I already have to have a Kinect hooked to the device, having an external drive will take up space I don't have a lot of and make moving the system even more of a pain then it already is.
The tv stuff, fantasy football, pizza ordering is actually quite fine. I don't mind having all of that in there in the least. I won't use it because I was actually doing a great job watching tv and ordering pizzas. But I have no problem with the system having it for people that need/want it.
I can honestly say i'm one of those people how have only wanted a console for video gaming.
Yes i've used it as a DVD player, and have used the internet on it a few times. But never once was i like "OMG IT PLAYZ DVDZZ!!!"
ew no... the US and the UK maybe but Canada is much better
Canada won't get the cable thing like everything else media related we miss out on due to our stupid CRTC regulations... Our netflix is probably have 70% less content than the American netflix CRTC laws require any media provider has to over something like 50% canadian content. we don't have Hulu, Pandora etc
The PS4 will have some cool new media stuff too, and Sony will be proud when announcing it, heck Sony owns a movie studio and is in the music business.
The PS3 was advertized as the everything device, but now Microsoft is getting blasted by Sony fans for being having too much media focus?
A modern day console is gone have this kind of stuff, you have to get a large range of people to buy it.
That's what you get for being ameica's hat
Ok I'll bite..
Daily internet connection - if you're posting on ign, I'm going to assume that this doesn't really pose a problem for you. Maybe an inconvenience a day or two during the year, but c'est la vie
Mandatory full game installs (optional is fine) - oh no I have to wait 20-30 mins for a game to install? Really you can't kill 30 mins and you have to play right f-ing now??? Go call your parents or read a book or something.
A Kinect-esque device that must always be plugged in and watching me - NO one wants to see play xbox in your underpants. Likewise, no company will commit the type of resources necessary to go through everyones video/audio from kinnect
The inability to lend a game to a friend - isn't this technically piracy?
The inability to rent games - Support developers?
Having to pay a full price 'fee' to play a used game. - Support developers and kick Gamestop in the balls by not buying overpriced used games?
Not being able to swap out a hard drive (in a few years when SSD's are cheaper and can hold more data this will be important). I already have to have a Kinect hooked to the device, having an external drive will take up space I don't have a lot of and make moving the system even more of a pain then it already is. - I have a hard drive the size of a wallet. Not that big. An external drive will be fine.

As Lew points out in his interview on Prison Planet, the United States is a Fascist country that is run by Big Corporations (primarily the Banksters) and Big Government. Clinton is thrilled (1:40 on the video) with all of the technology prosperity centers around the country that are public/private partnerships. (That's funny: Being that I'm part of the public, I don't see any stocks in my portfolio that indicate my part-ownership in any of these "public"/private partnerships. Hmmm.) Clinton doesn't care for the "rhetoric" in Washington D.C. of the private sector fighting the government. We sure know that his Bankster friends who own the "Federal" Reserve are happy for their public/private partnership (which is now closing in on 100 years)—to the detriment of the 99% of United States citizens who don't own most of the wealth in this country.

The Perfectly True Tales of a Perfect Size 12
The Perfectly True Tales of a Perfect Size 12
Delilah White may not have it all, but what she does have is
"bliss." Bliss, as in "Domestic Bliss," the name of the television
show for which she has become an idol to millions of American
would-be Martha Stewarts. Her fantastic boss Agnes and her best
friend Sofia, the production designer, give her all the support she
needs. But when Agnes ventures off the show for greener pastures,
her spot as executive producer is open suddenly, and Delilah, the
perfectionist, learns she has to remove her kid gloves to make the
kind of impression that will win her this coveted promotion.
Naturally, someone stands in Delilah's way: Her nemesis Margo, the
girl-with-runway-model looks, also wants the job. Thus ensues a
nasty race for the top-dog spot, culminating in some particularly
nutty antics at Sofia's wealthy family's Catskills estate, where
the Fourth of July festivities mix rather poorly with love, liquor
and lies.
You can read this on a train or in a plane. In fact, I think THE
PERFECTLY TRUE TALES OF A PERFECT SIZE 12 is the kind of book you
can read while straphanging between boroughs on the New York City
subway system. Robin Gold's debut is a veritable treasure trove of
funny plot lines concerning the stealing of and lying to
boyfriends, the way women stick together in a time of crisis (or
not), rich people being completely and wonderfully goofy because
they have money, the way that drunk women in slinky shoes can't
make it across a summer lawn without falling flat on their faces,
the misunderstanding of the boss for whom someone has been working
for so long, having a crisis of confidence when the good employee
suddenly turns "bad" or seems to… The list can go on and on.
This is a fun book and a fast read, mostly because you'll recognize
everybody in it.
The one thing that it relies on to make it stand out is the fact
that Delilah is a size 12. Imagine that! She's a full-fledged,
full-figured 12 who catches a guy's eye and feels good about
herself in dresses that really hug her curves. So, I guess we could
call this Jennifer Weiner-lite. Delilah eats like a
regular human, and we cringe when she gets called "porky" or
"fatty" in public.
I think what is most intriguing about this book is that, like an
old episode of "I Love Lucy," slapstick and pathos mix together in
an old-fashioned tale about how the good get what they really want
and the bad get what they really deserve. She describes the weekend
craziness in pitch-perfect detail, and Sofia's family ---
especially Delilah's love interest, cousin Jack --- seem ready-made
for Central Casting. But you won't be bored. The story moves
quickly, and before you know it, all the world is right
So, for those of you lucky enough to get a winter resort vacation,
take Delilah along. Put this one in your beach bag and enjoy it
with a silly tropical drink or two or three --- just like Delilah
and Sofia (or Lucy and Ethel) would if they were there!
