There's a reason this is one of our best selling products, and is a perennial favorite with our customers; it's the best portable ballast pump on the market right now.
How it works
The Tsunami ballast pump is a high flow model that is both durable and dependable. For filling the bags, simply connect the free end of the hose to the Quick Twist Adapter on the bag you want to fill, drop the pump in the water over the side of the boat (it is completely waterproof and submersible), and plug the included cigarette lighter adapter into the 12v accessory plug on your boat.
For draining just reverse the connection of the pump, securing the pump body itself directly to the bag you want to drain, and placing the free end of the hose over the side of the boat.
We include everything you need to use the Pro X Series Tsunami ballast pump with Fly High's Pro X Series ballast bags in the box, so there's nothing extra to purchase. Just open the box and start filling and draining your bags with the fastest pump on the market.
Fly High Pro X Series wakeboard ballast bags are the first wakeboard ballast products designed specifically for use in a wakeboard boat. With a clean slate, Fly High rethought and redesigned nearly every aspect of wakeboard ballast bags. Gone are the days of an inner bladder and outer cover, leaky connections, and fittings that are difficult to find. Constructed from a single layer of the same durable yet flexible material used to build white water rafts, the Fly High Pro X Series ballast bags offer unmatched strength and durability. Additionally, Fly High Pro X Series ballast bags feature multiple waterproof threaded fittings built into the bags construction. Unlike the blue water bed connections used on other wakeboard ballast bags, these strong fittings feature durable threads and can be used with Fly High's optional fittings to create the perfect integrated ballast system. Step up to the Fly High Pro X Series wakeboard ballast bags and experience the easiest to use, more durable ballast bags on the market.

Solid Unit, Works Great!
Review by 07 OBV on 4/27/11Quality Price Value Great manual pump. Fills and empties sacs quickly. Nice to have if you need to fill extra surf sacs. Also could be a budget friendly option compared to installing a fully automatic ballast system.
Great Product
Review by MC X2 on 10/3/10Quality Price Value Going on 4 years with this pump and it still kicks butt. Great product that out performs my expensive Jabsco stock ballast pumps in my boat. don't know if this is a fair comparison due to installation and duty cycle but I would love to have these in place of the Jabscos if it would work properly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an external ballast pump.

Comments about 18V Cordless Fluorescent Automotive Light:
Very bright fluorescent light, especially when considering the low battery drain. I already had a Makita spot flashlight, which is okay, but not nearly as useful for detail work in a dark corner or under a car. Great addition to my cordless set of tools.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The birth of a child is the most anticipated, exciting, and memorable day in the life of expecting parents and their extended family. Sadly, in many cases the joy of childbirth is overshadowed by serious medical complications. An infant's health may be jeopardized by the medical malpractice of physicians and other medical professionals assisting in the birthing process. Poor medical treatment of the expecting mother and the newborn child may lead to serious medical issues and permanent disabilities such as Cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy, permanent birth brain damage and spinal cord injury. You and your child have a right to proper medical treatment, if proper treatment is not received and injury takes place, your child in entitled to compensation.

When you contact our Law Offices at (855)385-2529 you will immediately speak with one of our our distinguished and knowledgeable attorneys regarding your birth injury medical malpractice claim. OUR PROMISE – You will not have to Speak with an Operator, or Office Secretary or Wait hours or days until we contact you.
Common Birth Injuries: Sadly, birth injuries take place frequently in the United States. There can be many complications due to medical errors which can take place during the birthing process. According to recent birth statistics released by the Center for Disease Control close to 1% of all births in the United States results in some form of injury to a newborn infant.
Below are some of the most common birth related injuries:
- Clavicle Fracture: Collarbone dislocation or fracture separating the connections from shoulder from the chest.
- Erb's Palsy: Or Brachial Plexus Injury: Caused by the stretching of the nerves that travel down from the head through the neck to the shoulder, chest cavity, and spine. In many cases healing does not occur even after surgery leading to permanent disability and nerve damage.
- Brain Injury: resulting from a lack of Oxygen to the brain or head trauma, often thee injuries result in lifelong permanent brain damage.
- Fracture to the Skull and Facial Fractures:
- Broken Limbs: Usually Femur, (thigh bone) fractures
- Fetal Distress During Child Birth: There are certain signs and symptoms of fetal distress which should be recognized by trained medical professionals. Often times the failure diagnose and properly treat fetal distress will lead to serious injuries to the unborn child and the mother.
Injuries to the Mother: Birth injuries to the mother are may take a few hours or even days to manifest themselves: Symptoms indicating an injury are excessive
- blood loss or shock,
- placenta retention
- tears in the perineum
- heart rate fluctuations,
- Sepsis (microorganisms in the blood).
If a loved one has recently given birth and is experiencing any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediate. Visiting the doctor who delivered the baby could be an option; however, it would be recommended to have a second opinion from unbiased medical personnel to help determine if the symptoms are the result of medical malpractice during the birthing process.

The History of Neighbourhood Watch
Avon and Somerset Constabulary has been committed to Neighbourhood Watch since it was first introduced in this country in 1982 in Mollington, Cheshire following the success of a similar scheme in Chicago in the USA. Since then it has grown to be the largest voluntary group in the country.
What is Neighbourhood Watch?
The purpose of Neighbourhood Watch is to unite neighbourhoods in an effort to prevent crime, by protecting and enhancing their environment and generally looking out for each other's properties. Working in partnership with the local Neighbourhood Policing Teams gives Neighbourhood Watches a way of dealing with many issues affecting their communities, such as anti-social behaviour, burglary and vehicle crime.
Avon and Somerset Constabulary recognises that Neighbourhood Watch schemes play a vital role in preventing crime and improving a community and through our local Neighbourhood Watch Administrators and Neighbourhood Policing Teams, we work closely with residents and local organisations to support and increase membership across the force area.
In Avon and Somerset we have Ringmaster, a dedicated Watch messaging system, operated by local Police staff, as well as dedicated local Neighbourhood Watch Administrators, as well as an HQ-based Development Officer. Ringmaster allows us to relay important information to watches efficiently, increasing the opportunity for greater awareness and quality intelligence.
We have approximately 5,000 Neighbourhood Watch schemes covering some thirty percent of households. Nationally there are approximately 155,000 schemes covering up to six million households.
In addition the Neighbourhood Watch, the constabulary supports over twenty different sorts of watches including Pub Watch, Church Watch, Horse Watch and Business Watch.
Reasons for joining/starting a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme
Neighbourhood Watch is one of the biggest and most successful crime prevention initiatives ever and the largest voluntary organisation in the country.
Our statistics show that:
"The event, which was held on behalf of the charity Victim Support, raised over £1,000. The real significance of the fayre to Neighbourhood Watch was not so much the money raised but the excellent support given by everyone who took part in it and had such an enjoyable time. Ours is a small hamlet of no more than one hundred household members, lying between two larger villages in South Gloucestershire, which lacks a focal point to give it identity. The objective of the event, therefore, was to increase a feeling of community, which assists the fight against crime. In this respect it was also a great success".

C A+F Guys & Girls: Girls and Guys are ok. No one is strikingly beautiful or talented at first glance. Generally short and into business.
B A+F Guys & Girls: I feel that we have an overall good-looking school. A lot of the student population is your typical east-coast, kinda of preppy dressers. It is a fairly wealthy school and most people are very well dressed. Social life basically revolves around either Greek life or athletics in my opinion, so relationships often exist within these two groups.
D A+F Guys & Girls: Guys and girls here for the most part have the same types of personalities. If you're on a sports team you don't really experience this so much because your teammates are from all over. If you're not on a sports team, good luck. most people stick within their own groups. Bryant university aka next four years of high school
A- A+F Guys & Girls: I think this school has a diverse mix of guys and girls. Everyone is great.
B+ A+F Guys & Girls: 60 to 40 guys to girls but most of the girls are very attractive. Unfortunetly most of the girls are cleat chasers, but they are working on evening the ratio more.

Processes (P)
1P3 Determining Required Student Preparation
Western determines the appropriate placement of incoming students by a process that includes ACT scores, high school transcripts, and departmental exams. For transfer students, the process includes consideration of previous transcripts and departmental criteria to determine students' readiness for specific courses and degree programs. Individual consultations help to determine the student's academic preparation for individual courses and degree programs. Some students come to Western under-prepared in the basic academic skills of reading, writing, and mathematics. Students are placed in developmental courses in these basic skills based on ACT sub-scores or placement tests. They are required to enroll continuously in these courses from matriculation until they are satisfactorily completed. Figure 1.8 gives the number of students enrolled, and the A, B, C grade rates for these courses for the Fall 2004 semester. Through internal research it has been determined that attendance and participation are essential factors for success in developmental math classes. Students who satisfactorily complete the developmental courses generally do as well as other students in subsequent writing and mathematics (1R3).
Admissions selectivity in Missouri is Open, Moderately Selective, Selective, and Highly Selective. As an open access institution, Western may admit any student with a high school diploma or equivalent. Access to selected programs may have additional program-specific admission criteria. Over the past twelve years, incoming Western freshmen have had ACT (composite) average scores between 19.3 and 19.8 (Figure 1.6). A strategic goal is to enroll a student population which has an ACT profile more like the national distribution. In 2004, Western began implementing a plan to accomplish this goal. The incremental goals for 2005 and 2006 were achieved; the average ACT for the Fall 2005 incoming class was 19.5; for Fall 2006, the ACT was 19.8. The CBHE requires all first-time, full-time degree-seeking freshmen and transfer students who have completed 23 or fewer credit hours at another institution to complete the high school core curriculum in order to enroll at a four-year institution of higher learning in Missouri.
Missouri has in the past required a 16-unit high school core. In July 2006, the CBHE adopted a 24-unit high school core (required of the high school graduating class of 2010), consisting of 4 units in English, 1 in speech and 2 in composition or writing skills; 3 units in mathematics, high school algebra and beyond, including algebra II; 3 units in social studies, including American history and at least one semester in government; at least 3 units in science, not including general science; at least 1 unit of fine arts courses, practical arts, and physical education; 1/2 unit in health education and 1/2 unit in personal finance; and 7 units of electives (2 units in a single foreign language recommended).
Comparative data (Figure 1.7) from the CBHE Statistical Summary indicate Western competes well within mission selectivity with other public four-year institutions in Missouri. In 2001-2005, an average of 64 percent of Western's matriculating full-time students completed the 16-unit core. Students at Western who have not completed the core typically lack 1 unit in mathematics, 1 unit in writing, and/or 1 elective. About 85 percent of entering freshmen have completed 14 units of the high school core.
The St. Joseph Public School system and Western partner to prepare middle school students for admission into college, particularly emphasizing the importance in a program called Ready.Set.Go...Discover College (1R3).

Teaching values through technology education: a discussion of the challenges facing the teacher as professional gatekeeper
Edwards-Leis, Christine, and Keirl, Steve (2007) Teaching values through technology education: a discussion of the challenges facing the teacher as professional gatekeeper. Proceedings of the 4th Biennial International Conference on Technology Education Research. International Conference on Technology Education Research: Values in Technology Education , 7-9 Dec 2006, Gold Coast , pp. 77-83.
PDF (Published Version) - Repository staff only - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader 946Kb |
This paper explores the values contradictions and tensions that exist for Technology teachers positioned at the centre of competing curriculum values interests. It draws on the middle years of Technology curriculum in Queensland (the discussion would not be atypical elsewhere in Australia), as well as the National Framework For Values Education in Australian Schools. The metaphor of teacher as professional gatekeeper is used to illustrate the positioning of teachers amongst the not altogether consistent values interests expressed implicitly and explicitly by governments, managers, the profession, parents and students. We discuss matters of pedagogy, assessment and the kinds of values and practices that contribute to both the intended and the hidden curriculum. We argue that the challenge to the conscientious teacher, of articulating and arbitrating a vast spectrum of values, is significant if such problems as tokenism, reductionism and bias are to be avoided. Ultimately, teachers' personal and collective professional judgement is of great importance.

Early Friday morning New Mexico police responded to a call about a man who appeared to be fighting with a stop sign.
When officers arrived at the Roswell intersection, they discovered 45-year-old Raymond Garcia was indeed fighting with the sign. As police approached Garcia, they were met with the same fight the man had for the stop sign.
Garcia had to be shot with Taser darts after he became belligerent. However, he did not go down and stay down, but instead began kicking at the officers as they approached Garcia who was on the ground.
The officers shot the darts at Garcia once more, but he broke the lead off from his stomach. The officers then pulled out batons, but Garcia was able to grab one and began swinging back at the officers.
During the altercation, Garcia was also hit with pepper spray but the officers say he just wiped off his face and tried to run away while throwing the baton back at them.
It is believed Garcia was on some kind of drug that prevented the Taser from contracting his muscles, which is how they work.
At around 2:30 a.m. Friday morning, the stop sign fighter was arrested by the now three officers and charged with a number of offenses including:
- Aggravated assault against a peace officer
- Disarming an officer
- Resisting an officer
Garcia is currently being held at the Chaves County Detention Center, and they drug he was suspected of being on has not been identified.

Big Ideas vs. Small Ideas; Forest vs. Trees.
I recently spotted a great article on Razorfish's blog titled: "Does SIM mean big ideas matter less?". I thought this was interesting until I realized the underlying duality of the question was inappropriate. Dualism, or "black vs. white" is never really the way to go; its always a compromise is it not? We may maintain this duality in our minds, but a real glance at reality only shows primary hues: shades of gray.
To quote:
There's a lot of talk in the advertising industry of how big idea advertising is losing its importance. Rather everyday ideas, small and nimble ones that can activate consumers and influencers alike across the Internet seem to be getting as important.
Some basic reasoning: what is a "big" idea as it pertains to advertising? My definition of it is: "an idea that unifies the Brand's central communication in a creative way that engages the widest possible audience".
The assumption then is instead of a big idea an agency spends months developing, we're instead moving to a series of small ideas that are easier to activate online over the same period of time.
But wait – wouldn't it be just a tiny step forward to plan a campaign that had a big all encompassing idea that was layered on top of many smaller activations over the course of the campaign period? Is that blasphemy? Don't see it? "WTF"?
OK sister; let's get visual.
So here's what the traditional campaign looks like:
And what's being suggested now is we change the "Big Idea" campaign to a small idea campaign like this:
So is this what we have to choose from? My feeling is "no"; if we can plan a content campaign that houses both the big promotional idea that can sprout & support many smaller ideas, then we'll be able to obtain the "best of both worlds situation". But there is a big caveat; it requires us (agencies & clients) to change the way we think (oh noes! not that!).
So we know the ideal, and at this point you're thinking to yourself "so what?". I hear you – and I have an answer to your skepticism; because there is a way to achieve the ideal, and here's how: "tiered content".
The idea is to create several tiers of content for your audience; the first tier is the biggest, most expensive content that cannot be economically reproduced in short time periods (but IS formulated such that it can be naturally reproduced). This falls in line with many campaigns covered on LRB and ZeroDegrees blogs: big promotions engaging huge numbers of users over a short amount of time, usually consisting of some expensive reward (ie: Dell's doodle campaign where winners would receive a laptop).
Obviously this tier, while the most engaging, is not sustainable due to expenses. But that doesn't mean it has to end; it can be relaunched at a later date, say monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, whatever; with each new go taking advantage of momentum built from previous runs. However, you're left with huge gaps in between; which will leave users feeling lost after each push.
What to do, what to do, oh dear lord what to do?
Well, this is where small ideas come into play; though not as engaging as the biggie, they keep things running along, keep visitors engaged with the central message, and essentially keep building all momentum from the first push, coalescing all efforts into a large wave of positive brand communication.
This smaller activation content can be anything; aggregated content from around the web relevant to Brand communications (much like our NY partner SMToday has done for several communities, including one built for SAP, successfully), mini games, advice columns, whatever – think "online magazine" and you'll have a sense of mini-engagement through value-add content.
So this is what it looks like:
Managing a big idea like this requires creating a localized community first; a place online the Brand can use as a "HQ" to launch all campaigns and eventually bring and retain the traffic from those campaigns at its home base. This is hugely important, and I'll cover this in depth some point in the future as its a critical element to the success of the campaign, like a hub is a critical part of a wheel.
The key ingredient, like all advertising campaigns, is the creative, or the content, or simply put "what you say"; this is extended into "what you converse" as the campaigns of the future will be about sustained conversations, rather than one-off shouts into the void.
I like to think of it like this: "Traditional campaigns require painters; social media campaigns require authors". The creative element still exists, but requires a different way of communicating ideas.
The closing remarks of the Razorfish entry circle this concept:
Agencies will need to be idea engines but not of the award winning ideas type but of smaller ideas that produce strong, quick results which when stitched together tell a complete on-brand story.
But the approach is bottom up, rather than top down. Which way is better? Who can tell for now; but as we're discovering at ZeroDegrees, the top down approach is gaining traction; by this time next year I'll give you a solid answer.
Is there more to it than the above? Yes. Am I going to keep talking about it? No. Why? Because thats how I roll.
I realize that you'll probably have more questions and that I've likely at best reduced your skepticism from 90% to maybe 89.9%. Fortunately the folks over at ZeroDegrees have some reasonably good answers. Why don't I say "the best"? Cause in these Fast Times at Red Shang High, none of us have the perfect answer; …but that doesn't mean we haven't figured out a cohesively workable solution.

Whenever you insert Disc 1 of Adobe CS4 and run the setup, you will see a gray screen pop up "preparing for setup". Typically after this screen, you will get to the usual selection screen of what components to be installed as well as prompt for serial number. However, in Mountain Lion and some Lion machines, CS4 will be stuck at the gray screen "preparing for setup" and be frozen at the last 7/8 of the bar. I do notice a disk partition being mounted and disappear, but then again, that was in Lion. Mountain Lion just refuse to load the selection screen for installation.
Have you tried right clicking on the installer and selecting Open? You can find more details on this at Error "has not been signed by a recognized distributor" | Launch Adobe applications | Mac OS - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/error-signed-distributor-mac -os.html.
I have just tested launching the installer for Photoshop CS4 under 10.8 and the installer did launch successfully. At this point I would recommend completing the steps listed at Troubleshoot system errors, freezes | Mac OS 10.x | Adobe software - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-f reezes-mac.html.
Sorry, I know this is an old thread, but I ran into the same problem, and my search brought me here. I finally figured out the issue. If you've tried installing and had the AIR error, and you've downloaded the latest version of AIR like you're instructed to do, then you try running the install again, it will treat it like a custom installation. You have to scroll down through the programs on the right hand side of the window and select the programs you want to install. Deselect Adobe AIR, Acrobat.com, and Adobe Media Player (they can be downloaded separately later), but select everything else, then click "Install". It should get you past the "Preparing for setup" screen - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/installation-creative-suite-4 -or.html

Jiri's patch on this thread wasto fix a problem in ext4, which means that's fixing a problem which isunrelated to the slow mkfs.ext2 problem (which is writing to a blockdevice, not a file in a ext4 filesystem), and so it's likely unrelatedto your problem (unless you're using ext4 and didn't tell us :-).Andrew's probably right that it may be related to the slow mkfsproblem. Can you confirm that you are seeing this on 2.6.26-rc2-mm1,but not on stock 2.6.26.rc2? - Ted

1 Answer from the Community
No it does not support dual voltage, you have to buy a power converter if you plan to use it in Europe or otherwise buy the 220volt/50 hertz version.

Anonymous' Sony protest unsuccessful |
Listed in: News Tags: anonymous, news, Sony
Anonymous had planned to stage a huge protest action against Sony on April 16, but unfortunately things didn't really turn out that way. In light of Anonymous' statements about their planned sit-in protest, some Sony Centers had reportedly enlisted the help of local police for protection. Those cops ended up having a pretty cushy gig, as hardly any protesters showed up.
Updates posted on the protest's official Facebook page ("Operation Sony") indicate that although there were a few Sony stores that were shut down, the protest action could more rightly be considered a flop.
"I went to the Sony Outlet in San Diego in the San Ysidro mall," posted one protester. "No One was there. I didn't have materials to make signs. I didn't have the ink to print fliers. I don't own a mask. And NO ONE was there. Do you know what I did? at first I waited, then I stood outside the store and I talked to people. I stood there, alone, simply asking people to listen and telling them what was happening."
Another posted, "Well I went to Costa Mesa and no one there, went to LA ... no one there... so I stuck fliers places till I got kicked out haha mostly fail if ya ask me :(".
Anonymous isn't done yet, though. They're tagging the April 16 protest as a "moderate success". The protests will also continue, according to the page's creator, who posted a message saying, "There will be another protest date. This movement does not end here." You can learn more about the group's future plans here.
Via [Gamrfeed]
70.4% of voters think this story ROCKS! |
protests are rarely successful anyway.
WTF? What planet do they live on?
So at the end of the day, you've got some dumb kids, trying to rally others into protesting and 95% of the population doesn't care - while the rest are either sore with the group or equally don't care.
Anonymous needs to grow up and stop their childish "rebellion" and stand up for something real. Totalitarian governments who murder it's citizens if they speak out, in places like Egypt, Seria etc or governments covering up genocide are real problems. Whining that you can't crack your PS3 for piracy or the fact that Linux was removed, isn't an important issue that people are going to rally in droves for.
That said, I do think that they did screw up by DOS attacking PSN, if anything it probably made the hackers more hated.
this is plain retarded
you guys seem to ignore the fact that geo hot DID screw up by releasing the keys that he did, he IS in the wrong, as much as we like to say that it's for home brew and what not, and it's our systems, the fact of the matter is that it leads to piracy even if you didn't intend for it to happen
and piracy will lead to lesser quality games, because we are slapping the faces of the hard working developers who poured their time and effort into making these games
if anon really want's to fight for the people, suit the fuck up and head south of the border and help with the drug trafficking problems we have, or with the kidnapping of women and young females that are used for human trafficking that happens almost everywhere in the world, find a way to help the poor, stop using your cars that use gas that is not only fucking up our planet, but eventually will lead to the destruction of our country,
fucking seriously, even if anon did succeed with sony, they would still have about another thousand companies to attack to even make a difference
I'd like to see the court papers to prove that statement. Whether he did or didn't do anything wrong, the courts say he didn't.
Attacking Sony :> More publicity :> More people able to see a real life example of civil liberties being stripped away slowly.
I do think that targeting Sony alone is slightly pathetic, because there are many other parties involved which is why Anonymous is a bit of a laughing stock, but to say that Sony aren't a valid target altogether? Hah!
maybe your definition of "rights" is a little more open than mine - i don't see losing an operating system on an electronic device as losing my "rights". It's like saying a driver's license gives you the "right" to drive - it doesn't. you are granted the privelage to drive.
and guess what? if you agreed to that multipage Terms & Conditions when you signed up for PSN, then you gave away a whole shitload of these so-called "rights".
I don't know how the "protest" could be called a failure; Seems, from the reports, Anon members were the only patrons those stores had all day. The fact that the only consumers near the stores were standing outside of them "spreading the word" doesn't seem like a total fail after all.
Sure, it wasn't a HUGE success, but given that there weren't any customers to run off, I'd say *something* is killing Sony's business.
1. The time of this so called protest. What there a time? A designated time? Not just day but like at 12pm...6pm... etc.
2. The places and day. Some stores see more traffic than others and of course the days make that vary too.
3. More than most people have work/school (probably most of these people are kiddies in the first place >_>) We're not talking about the professional protesters who show up to G8 every year here...
4. As some have said MOST people don't give a hoot. They will buy what they are going to buy (Like me who will forever buy Sony's stuff as long as my wallet permits ). Some hacker who got sued by Sony will be seen as a hacker... Which in society is looked down upon.
Adding the fact they pissed off the people with that PSN shut down... ya I'ma call this fail
SONY, just bring back OtherOS and your drama will be done.
I'm not spinning anything. Karl B. has it hard for Sony, as evidenced by his posts. I was simply pointing it out.
As for why Anonymous is holding protests, it's not "just because of GeoHot" (obviously my critics can't read, either), but rather Sony's FAR OVER-REACH DURING LEGAL DISCOVERY.
I'll close with this paraphrase of a great quote:
First they came for my OtherOS and I said nothing because I don't use Linux.
Then they came for my ability to "only do everything" with my PS3 because I only use it for games.
Then they came for my Twitter and Youtube accounts and I said nothing because I don't use Twitter or Youtube.
Then they terminated my PSN accounts because my buddy used my email address to watch a video about a kid that hacked a gaming machine, and I said nothing because I couldn't get on PSN to message my friends.
Karl B. has it hard for Sony, as evidenced by his posts.
And which posts would that be exactly?
S'what I get for reading a Sony fanboi site, I guess ;)
If they wanted to hurt Sony (and not the consumers, as their strategies seem to be oriented toward) then they need to focus on something that affects only Sony, i.e. their internal network infrastructure (-not- the PSN).
Sony is a business, what is the lifeline of every business? Let's think about it... wait for it... communications.
If they had half a brain used to actually plan strategies between the bunch, they'd focus on Sony's communication structure. E-mail, phones, whatever.
That would get some attention.
a) Sony's consumer gaming infrastructure is a joke. The PSN was (mostly) down for 8 straight days. Users wouldn't have been affected had the PSN gaming servers not been on the same network as the PSN Store (the store services were the target, the gaming servers outage was an added bonus).
b) Sony (as expected) would come up with some BS lie ("sporadic maintenance"?? Unplanned or unscheduled, maybe, but totally random *maintenance*) Instead of being up front with its users. OtherOS was removed due to "security" just as PSN functionality was reduced due to "sporadic maintenance".
c) Sony would be unable to respond and return services to normal levels within a reasonable amount of time. A company with such resources should be able to load balance, re-route, setup a honeypot, or do deep packet inspection (all things ISP's have been doing since the 90's) to mitigate the damage. They did not. They did exactly as expected and contracted a 3rd party to manage *their* network. All the kings horses and all the kings men....
But make no mistake - The DDoS traffic worked as a mask while the internal networks were poked and supposedly infiltrated. It's a common tactic, and the next few weeks should clue us in as to how successful it was.
To my critics -- You don't have to be a Sony *or* Anonymous fan to realize that Sony's actions during the discovery phase were a massive abuse of corporate power. Had it been any other company gaining IP addresses and account info you guys would have been up in arms. You keep going back to OtherOS and GeoHot's hacking, but none of you have any public criticism of Sony having the IP address and account ID of EVERY SINGLE user that viewed GeoHot's videos or followed or RT'd his Tweets. It's obvious that the more vocal of you guys have tunnel vision that cannot be strayed from your Sony TV.
It appears that the comment section is where logic and reason come to die. Bring on the flames.
Karl B. - Pretty much any post relating to Sony or GeoHot. Your editorial is often snarky. My assumption could be incorrect, but after reading your posts (of which you are 99% of the time the first to comment), I stand by my assessment.

You sir are my mother f***ing HERO. Seriously people who gives a damn what an asshole corporation and a bunch of asshole dudes (might as well call them a corporation too) are up to. In the end it all comes to down to playing games. That's what this website was started for and that's what it stands for. News!
I have 2(CFW/OFW)PS3's so I'm on both sides of the fence.
All I know is that I bought into the whole Kinect & Move accessories and all they do is collect dust!!
Especially the PS Move:(
hacking your ps3 is still an "unauthorized change" that they don't want.

You do realize that asking for those IP addresses was within their rights? If a terrorist made a video of his plan to bomb a building and posted it online wouldn't the government want to get the IP addresses of the people that were watching his video?
Sony asked for what was within their right and the government gave it to them, they could have said NO, but they supplied those IP's. So, either complain about the way the law is set up or stop acting like Sony stole your cookie.
P.S. Nobody has my IP cuz i dont give a shit about hacking my ps3...
Or was that not really your point?
Glad to know that you don't care because you're not affected nor do you care to stray outside of the box. I think I mentioned something about that in a previous post. It's all fun and games until they come after *you*.
You do realize that Lawyers asking another corporation for private user information is what happened, right?
See, here's part of the problem. Information is valuable, misinformation is not.
Your argument went out the window and you lost all credibility when you brought "terrorists" (GeoHot / Hackers are NOT terrorists in general) and "tha gubmant" (as I said, Lawyers != The Government) into your defense.
I can't believe I'm on my like 6th post trying to convince people to read and research. Jesus, it's like walking into the Heaven's Gate compound and trying to explain to them that Comets are not Space Ship transporters.
i was comparing how its ok for one criminal activity but not for another (I Could've used the comparison: online child predator and his website, and it would be ok too).
Another thing, smart ass, is that LAWYERS study LAW hence they have the word LAW in their profession. Who makes the law? THE MOTHER FUCKING GOVERNMENT!
looks like you are the one inside the box buddy. And even sony had my IP which they wont because i dont partake in the destruction of the ps3, but lets say out of sheer interest for geohotz stupidity, i still wouldnt care because they used the addresses for statistical evidence. They didnt go through every single one and look at where those people lived. Which isnt hard to do without IPs either. If you want your IP protected from the law/government go to Switzeranld
"...a Government for the people, by the people, and of the people..."
If being able to research to back my opinion is a qualification for being a smartass, then so be it. I'd rather be a smartass than a dumbass, any day.
Just remember, if you don't fight for your rights (btw, laws do change. See 'iPhone jailbreaking', or 'hanging blacks after dark'), guys like me will fight for you. You may not realize it's a right you even care about until it's taken away.
Thanks for being a shining example of the current "I don't give a shit" gamer mentality. And people wonder why games and gamers aren't taken seriously?
Actually, the stupid politicians who are paid thru corporate campaign donations make the laws based on whatever will get them more campaign money.
once again, other OS is a veeeeeery loose definition of a "right".
George Carlin said it best [from the perspective of the government]:
"YOU ARE FREE!!! (to do what we tell you)"
and i'd buy a ps3 to play bluray movies. take that, xbox
You're right. It most certainly didn't launch with the marketing tag line, "It only does everything". I'm sure Sony never actually intended that statement to carry any weight.
Again, the protests weren't about hacking. They were/are about SONY'S OVER-REACHING DURING LEGAL DISCOVERY. My PS3 is still stock, but because I was curious about what GeoHot was doing, Sony now has my name and IP address on file. I have no problem handing them my PSN account and IP when I sign in, but they obtained my account info from YouTube and Twitter without ever letting me know.
As for console hacking, people have been hacking them since the original Pong machines (adding color, changing paddle size, ball speed, etc). Hell, many hacks actually became games or appeared in game sequels (most recent: Scarlet from MK 2011).
You've all been advised as to what the protests are about, yet you all STILL THINK IT'S ABOUT GAMING AND HACKING. I'm willing to bet your school evaluations said something like, "does not pay attention, does not play well with others, does not follow directions".
If you think it's about OtherOS, Gaming, Hacking, or GeoHot himself, you're misinformed and have no basis for debate. Go back to playing games and let the rest of us stand up for your freedom to turn that machine into something cooler (Xbox 1 makes a GREAT emulator and Standard Def media center) once Sony's abandoned it for newer hardware.
First, you know nothing of me. I'm not a member of Anonymous. I do, however, see (and understand) why they're doing what they're doing (you know, because I can read). All of your assumptions about me are wrong. Sorry that I *DO* give a rat's ass, and from what I can tell, that's my biggest offense. So far, I've tried to inform some of you about something you've proven to be uninformed about, and yet I've been attacked for it. It's pretty mature of you to condemn someone for fighting for something you could care less about. Howzabout we just agree that a portion of you care only about using your console for games and lack the foresight to understand its possible greater uses it could provide.
A couple of points:
How does my support for my right to mod my console in the future make me a dumbass? Your logic is akin to telling someone to be happy with the car they bought, and never to change the wheels, tires, or stereo, no matter how long they own it beyond paying off their loan.
As for those Terms of Service, look on the outside of your PS3 box (I still have mine from a few years ago). Please, if your box has the ToS or PSN EULA printed on the outside I'd love to know. The class action case going on over OtherOS has actually gained most of its ground on that very premise.
So what you should have closed with is this:
"If you can't use x-ray vision, read the ToS (that is only good for that time and date, as they are dynamically updated online), and agree to it, don't buy the fucking console, Superman."
Anyway, this is my last point on this thread. I'm tired of trying to support and educate only to get picked on like the smart kid in school. Remain ignorant and apathetic, but remember, Karma's a real bitch. One day you'll be passionate and find that your pleas fall on deaf ears as well.
Karl B., while I may have been quick to judge, I have to give you props for being an objective observer. Though you had every right, you did not jump into the discussion to attack me. For that, I am humbled.
Thanks to all for the great debate. I wish you all the best.
Someone mentioned "butthurt" earlier; all my comments were +1 and up 15mins ago, now they've all dropped to -1. Obviously someone got their feelings hurt. S'all the same. I hope you feel better about trying to make me look bad because we don't agree. When left with no logical defense, name calling and throwing things is always an acceptable response. Well played, kiddo. Well played.
The terms of service are a part of common knowledge. It is not required to print on a box, in fact, it's printed out on manuals and books contained within the box! Guess you tossed those aside like everyone else usually does. Yes, the terms are mostly bullshit claims, but that's expected. Claiming you need X-Ray vision to see the terms is absolutely ridiculous dude, if everything was printed to satisfy your lack of investigating skills (looking at the fucking booklets, turning on the system and agreeing to the TaS, accepting new firmware update TaS, etc), then the box would be the size of a car and require a magnifying glass to be read.
And one more thing: as for the butthurt comment, that was me, and guess what? I didn't do shit to your comments. But since you claimed I did without any support to back it up, I went ahead and made your statement true. Does it get me anywhere? Nope. But enjoy your day good sir. Tell OP hi for me.
As for not having a life, I own a very successful company, which affords me the time to mostly f'off all day and shake your cage. Maybe after you get outta school, you too can become successful and spend your time being an internet prick, just like me :)
How did the Anonymous attacks work out? Try signing on to the PSN right now and let me know how it goes. They've now taken Sony's crappy network infrastructure and disabled it for upwards of 10 days (total, not consecutive). Guess you get what you pay for. Or is PSN+ down as well? ;) Maybe if Sony would spend less money on lawyers suing their users they could have afforded to build a decent infrastructure. But yea, obviously Anonymous is at fault for that as well. (sarcasm, in case you need it pointed out)
I never accused you of anything. Maybe you feel like I did, but I couldn't recall who mentioned "butthurt", which is why I posted "...someone mentioned 'butthurt' earlier..." without attaching a name. I didn't care enough to look back. Sorry if you felt accused, but maybe it's that nagging guilt that made you feel that way. Be it as it may, there's no way my comments legitimately went from +1 to +3, only for EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM to suddenly drop to -1 and worse. That, sir, was a lone shooter attempting to make his displeasure with me known. He succeeded in only proving himself to be a GIANT FUCKING BABYMAN that can't handle anyone criticizing his precious little black box. I could give a shit how my comments are ranked, honestly. it's the content and information that matter, not someone else's childish response to it.
So keep it up, Zen. You're a member here, I am not. As a result, you're entitled to belittle and degrade me for being a "noob" in your precious club. Maybe it's what you need to feel valuable, but it certainly doesn't do anything positive toward adding to your community. I came here to inform the misinformed, and was made to feel like I'd just pissed on your rug. That's gonna bring in some new users, right? (again, sarcasm. You should recognize it by now). However, I think I'll hang out here for a while...just for you.
Do you even know what it is like to have real problems, or to actually have you rights abused? I mean really? You own a business and yet you have the priorities and passions of a fifteen year old!
You talk about rights. What about Sony's right? I hate Sony, thus I don't buy their products, but it's their product! Companies do it all the time but this time it's important to you because you really want to do stuff on your little game box. Jackass.
You're a GROWN MAN crying about not being able to use a fucking program on a video game system and acting as if this will one day lead to slave camps.
You don't know what human rights crimes are. You're just an ignorant, self centered,immatu re little man-child, suckling on Anon's teat.
You even have the audacity to believe a blogger can't simply delete your bullshit. You are deluded and naive.
Just average south cal attention whores with a website and a few computer skills that most 12 year olds have these days.

When women are expecting their first child, they have a checklist of everything they need for baby's arrival. Receiving blankets? Check. Bottles? Check. Car seat? Check. But when the second baby enters the picture, mommy ditches the list and just tries to make it to the hospital on time. Having just experienced this, I was physically ready and more mentally prepared for the second child's debut. Blankets shmankets — just deliver the baby and get me home!
Obviously I needed the diapers, a car seat and bottles, but if I could only pick one superfluous item, it would be the Fisher Price Nature's Touch Baby Papasan Cradle Swing ($140). From day one that device has served my son and
Which baby gadget could you not live without?
Spring has officially sprung and it's time to get those sails aflutter. If you find yourself far from the salty ocean water, let your lil ones set sail as they glide through the air on Haba Toys Ship's See-Saw ($250). The indoor swing holds up to two toddlers (weighing up to 75 pounds) and can be installed in any ceiling stud.
Watch as your tots embark on an adventure for lost treasures or use their imaginations to feed off Captain Hook and his band of pirates. The ship even comes with an anchor for tots to throw down when they reach their "destination."
Keep your arms and kids in motion at the playground! The other day my daughter and a friend wanted to fly like fairies in the baby swings and needed someone to help them get air. Using my left arm to push my daughter and my right to push her friend, I got a rhythm going until about 20 minutes later when they finally tired of the activity. When we were leaving I noticed my arms were a bit sore and asked our in-house fitness guru, FitSugar about recommending it as a tip for moms who find themselves hanging out in the sandbox. She said it's a great exercise and to do squats if you want to add a lil more to your workout.
