Big Brother is Watching...Our Kids' Test Scores

Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Last week, students across New York finished a set of tests taken over a two-week period designed to measure their proficiency at reading and math against new federal college readiness standards known as Common Core.
Some parents opted their children out of the exams in protest against what they described as the school system's over-emphasis on testing and its use of data as the principle indicator of their children's achievement.
Starting next year, those scores, along with students' personal information--race, economic background, report cards, discipline records and personal addresses--will be stored in a database designed by Wireless Generation, a subsidiary of media mogul Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.
That's right, Rupert Murdoch can read your child's report card anytime he likes, and he knows where your kid is sleeping. The database will be managed by inBloom Inc, a nonprofit outfit that, like Wireless Generation, is under the domain of billionaire Bill Gates--who, together with the Carnegie Corporation and other philanthropic organizations, set up the company via his Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
inBloom is receiving $50 million for their services from the New York Education Department through a contract awarded last fall. Data analyzing firms, educational software designers and other third-party venders, both for-profit and not-for-profit, will be granted access to student information.
New York is not alone in turning to student data tracking system to measure performance. Some 200,000 U.S. teachers use Wireless Generation software as part of a national trend in which education administrators are increasingly turning to data analysis to grasp why America's pupils are flunking when compared to the rest of the world.
"I am a deep believer in the power of data to drive our decisions," said U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan shortly after his appointment to the post in 2008. "Data gives us the roadmap to reform. It tells us where we are, where we need to go, and who is most at risk."
But the consolidation of individual student information has been raising eyebrows--and sparking a backlash. The Electronic Privacy Information Center is suing Duncan's Education Department for amending privacy regulations in 2011 that allow student data to be accessed for non-educational objectives without informing parents--a violation, EPIC contends, of the Family Educational Rights Privacy and Privacy Act.
According to inBloom's privacy policy, the company is not responsible for security breaches; though it will "use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to ensure student records are kept private," inBloom "cannot guarantee the security of the information stored in inBloom or that the information will not be intercepted when it is being transmitted."
Last week, a group of New York parents sent a letter to the Board of Regents, which oversees the state's public schools, decrying the "plan to share highly confidential, personally identifiable student data" with inBloom. They expressed fear that the company intends to share their children's information "with for-profit vendors without parental notification or consent."
After parents in Louisiana raised similar concerns, plans to hand over student data to inBloom were put on hold two weeks ago. Contrary to statements from Louisiana Education Superintendent John White, the state has not cancelled its contract with the company, according to a spokesperson for inBloom.
The spokesperson also said it is up to inBloom's clients, not inBloom, to determine what data the company possesses and who is granted access. In Louisiana, that could include student social security numbers, which double as student ID digits in most districts.
Besides New York and Louisiana, inBloom has contracts with seven other states. All are part of the Shared Learning Collaborative, a pilot program set up by the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) to help implement Common Core standards through the tracking of student data. The Council of Chiefs, also a non-profit, is composed of the heads of America's state school systems who work together with corporations to collectively design education policy, in mold of the American Legislative Exchange Council, or ALEC.

RumorTT: DICE won't be developing the next Battlefield game
This is quite the rumor, but according to Wedbush Morgan analyst, Michael Pachter, DICE won't be developing the next Battlefield title. This is interesting, especially because it's EA.
Pachter said in a note to the press: "We spoke with management on Thursday afternoon, and although they have not yet announced a version of Battlefield for FY15, they confirmed that our understanding is spot on and that if a version of Battlefield were to be released in FY15, it would be developed by a studio other than DICE."
This would make sense, if EA wanted to pump out annual Battlefield games, like Activision does with Call of Duty. It would make more sense, because EA has killed off the Medal of Honor franchise, and doesn't have two military shooters to go back-to-back every alternate year. But, would it water down the Battlefield franchise, or would it help it flourish?

EA halts BF4 DLC roll out, wants to get the game working first
I've had issues with Battlefield 4, don't get me wrong, but when it works, it's an amazing game. Well, there are issues plaguing most platforms - next-gen consoles included - and EA wants to get it all fixed before it continues working on its DLC for BF4.
EA has put its foot down, with future expansions not being worked on until the problems with Battlefield 4 are a thing of the past. It's good to see EA kicking ass this early into the game, but these problems wouldn't be here if they didn't rush the game to release. EA said in its statement:
First, we want to thank the fans out there that are playing and supporting us with Battlefield 4. We know we still have a ways to go with fixing the game - it is absolutely our #1 priority. The team at DICE is working non-stop to update the game. Since Battlefield 4 China Rising expansion pack was already in the final stages of development by the time issues began with Battlefield 4, we decided to fulfill our promise to deliver it this week, but we're not moving onto future projects or expansions until we sort out all the issues with Battlefield 4. We know many of our players are frustrated, and we feel your pain. We will not stop until this is right.

Valve officially joins the Linux Foundation to further push gaming
It's no secret that Valve has been very Linux friendly as of late, and today the company publicly declared its commitment to the open source operating system by officially joining the Linux Foundation. This adds Valve to a prestigious list of heavy hitters such as HP, Intel, IBM, Oracle, and Samsung who are also part of the foundation.
"Joining the Linux Foundation is one of many ways Valve is investing in the advancement of Linux gaming," Mike Sartain, a key member of the Linux team at Valve said. "Through these efforts we hope to contribute tools for developers building new experiences on Linux, compel hardware manufacturers to prioritize support for Linux, and ultimately deliver an elegant and open platform for Linux users."
With SteamOS just around the corner, and more game developers supporting Linux and Steam every day, 2014 is going to be a big year for Linux gaming. I have a friend who has been predicting this for several years now, and today I had to concede all of my arguments to him on why this would never happen. At the rate things are progressing, I am willing to bet that in 5 years Linux and SteamOS will be as big of, if not a larger gaming platform than Windows is now.

Bethesda looking for playtesters for both released, unreleased games
If you're based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and want the opportunity to test games out for Bethesda, then prepare yourselves! The developer is looking for playtesters to try out its "upcoming and released games".
The Dallas-Fort Worth area is where id Software is based, with id Software and Bethesda both subsidiaries Zenimax Media. Considering id Software is currently working on first-person shooter, Doom 4, this could be quite the opportunity for someone interested. Those who are interested need to provide their own transport to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, must be at least 18 years old, and will be unpaid volunteers. An NDA will require your signature, too.
Battlefield 4: China Rising is here, and so is this cool trailer
I've been playing Battlefield 4 quite a bit (quite a bit for me is more than 5 hours in a week) and I thoroughly enjoy it. Keep in mind, I'm looking through the issues and bugs, and just at the game itself. Well, Battlefield 4's first expansion, China Rising, is here, and so is its trailer.
The trailer shows off some incredible gameplay moments, only possible in Battlefield 4, and is available right now for Premium members. There are four new maps included with China Rising, with the DLC launching on December 17 for those not on Premium.

Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony would like you to believe that PC Gaming is dead and the only way to have a good experience with next-gen games is to purchase a console, but new figures in from over the weekend proves that PC gaming is here to stay. Website VG247.com says that yesterday, Valve broke a new record for concurrent users on its Steam platform.
Around 11AM on Sunday, December 1st Steam saw over 7 million concurrent users on the service all gaming at the same time. This represents a new record for Valve, and is more than 400,000 users larger than its previous record which was set this past January. Dota 2 was the most popular title with more than 542,000 users playing at once, while Counter Strike: Global Offensive came in second with 93,905 users playing at the same time. Skyrim, Civilization V, and Football Manager 2013 round out the top five.

Other big savings include Metro: Last Light which has dropped from $54.99 to just $18.69 - something I'm going to buy as soon as I'm finished writing this news. Far Cry 3 is a huge 75% off, from #34.95 to just $8.73.

Battlefield 4 patch is coming for the PC next week, fixes bugs
DICE has promised to patch up the PC version of Battlefield 4 in a few days time, on December 2 to be specific, where the patch will fix the "one-hit kill" bug which sees gamers damaged from a single bullet multiple times.
Of course, other bugs are squashed with this patch, with the usual crashes and audio bugs fixed. The patch is currently being verified before it's pushed out to the public, but it should fix most of the issues that people are experiencing with BF4. Speaking of BF4, we benchmarked it on Radeon HD 7970s in CrossFire at 7860x1440, if you want to check it out.
GOG.com also celebrates the holidays, discounts over 60 games
We've already seen the Steam Autumn Sales, and the EA Origin sales, but if you were looking for something to buy from GOG.com, you're in luck - GOG.com has a massive sale which includes over 60 games.
A bunch of DRM-free classics, mixed with some newer titles are all on special. Some of my favorite games from yesteryear are on special, with Alone in the Dark 1, 2 and 3 on special for just $1.79. You can get a game like Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena for a dirt cheap $4.49, and Rollercoaster Tycoon: Deluxe for just $1.79.
A full list of games can be seen here, with some of the games available for both PC and Mac.

By Aaron Hills
He wouldve been 100 this month, so this MOMA retro (through December 13) is hoisting out 13 of Clairs French films, made before and after his various exiles. (He spent half of the 40s in Hollywood, where he put an indifferent stamp on I Married a Witch and And Then There Were None.) Of course, his early films are filthy with innovation and formal élan, juggling pop scores, choreographed movement, wild sound, and elaborate mise-en-scène, and if anything, theyve gained an antiquey dreaminess with the years. Liberté is required viewing, and though any film student can tell you that Entracte (1924) is an overhistoricized dadaist goof, few could direct you to Paris qui dort (1923) and Le Voyage imaginaire (1925), satiric post-Melies fantasias both. The Italian Straw Hat (1927) is almost Keaton-esque in its precise comedic beats, Sous les toits de Paris (1930) and Le Million (1931) rewrote with Mamoulian the handbook on early-sound camera movement, and Quatorze juillet (1932) is five rarely screened courses of Parisian working-class eccentricity. (Some of the movies, including the last three, have no English subtitles.) Nowhere in town is there a juicier helping of movie love.

This music is full with emotion.
It make me feel sad when I listen to it.
Can I use your music for my visual novel project?
You are welcome to use this piece as long as your project is not for profit and you credit me as Trevor Crookston. Thanks! :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Really loved it?
This was a really good song like the day I watched Power Star 4. It made me sad that time. Oh I have a question. Will there be a (Sadness and Sorrow v.3) coming out. Please answer, I'd like it.
I've had ideas about a new version but haven't particularly experimented with them. I'm thinking about orchestrating it and making it into a full blown piece, similar to what CelestialSticker did with it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCs5zB jfn2A
There will most likely be a v.3, but I have no idea when to be honest. Thank you for reviewing. :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars

Thank you, friend.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Very good....
As it is my opinion that you are a very talented musician, and even when I played a little bit I couldn't seem to make it the way you certainly have here. I am greatly in your debt to help me with several writing pieces that I do on occasion, thank you very much.
"Even now as a tear drops from my eye, I see in the closing sunset fall below the skyline. I stand and wipe it away, ashamed from all my past deeds and walk. Walking into a unknown future that will hold many things for me, sadness, happiness, maybe even death. This is something I will be looking forward to as I take one step, then another, always with learning something more."
Please take care as I will be expecting more of what you have to bring, and not anything less.
In a way, your story represents what I felt when composing this piece; a sense of uncertainty, sorrowful reminiscence, and yet a slight tinge of hope.
Thank you very much.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Winter gives proud, old Winnipeg a really bad hair day
Her name is Winnipeg... and she is mad. For all the years I have known her, and I met her when she was still a very young fort, I have never seen her as angry as this. She is one fired-up puppy, and you can't blame her really. I mean, Winnipeg, in her own mind, is and has always been the centre of the New World, the heart of the continent, the queen of the Red and the diva of The Social. Now, after all these years, they invited the entire Western Hemisphere to focus on her at her absolute worst. You can't blame her really. I mean, isn't it rather like being surprised with a grand party at your own home when all your pipes are frozen, and there you are, no makeup and in your PJs with a smile slapped on your face.
All the grand cities of the world -- Paris, London, New York, Rome -- alive with commerce, powered by industry, adorned with art and spirited by sport. Each one of these giants pulsates with life. The rush of traffic circulates along their paved arteries and veins. The push of the crowds beat with the ebb and flow of daily life and commerce flexes its muscles with seasonal change. They are her wanna-be's! Her childhood dreams come true are filled with their adventures, and here she is, laid-out, no, more like exposed to them as she never dreamed possible.
Now, let me talk a bit about Winnipeg, the friendly city. She is miserable. Her heart is shrinking. Her symphony and theatre, ballet and, well, hockey, reflect perhaps one-sixth of her former glory. Her one remaining great store of yore has lost its lustre. Reduced to a couple of floors you could shoot a cannon through at any given hour of the day in quiet assurance no one would be hurt. Golly, it would probably go unnoticed! Her waist line, however, is expanding at an exponential rate. Urban sprawl is freckled with huge box stores, wonderful additions to any city, south of the Mason Dixon line. Winnipeg, however, spends three quarters of her time covered in snow and at 40 below. And to top it all off, her feet are killing her. Potholes like bunions and plow-gorged ankles have left her streets and curbs in dire need of urban maintenance. Now, given all this, I ask you, who wouldn't be grumpy?
Jumpin' Junos, she is upset... I haven't seen her this mad since they gave her that bypass and then so laughingly referred to it as Duff's Ditch. Then there was the bridge connecting to her little pet St. Boniface. But I will get to that.
They broke her heart, you know. Her downtown core is no longer the hustling, bustling centre for shops and boutiques and department stores it once was. She complains of a constant and ever-present migraine. Her grey matter, in their grey suits, often at odds with each other and with her, have become a constant irritant. Between fire halls, police stations, football arenas and baseball parking lots, her synapses are all one big crooked mess.
She is having major problem with her arteries. Traffic flow is inconsistent and not only her arteries and veins are breaking down but the problem is going right to her capillaries. This winter was particularly hard, forcing her into extra doses of vitamin P, (that's vitamin Plow, just to be clear). She usually takes the C vitamins and minerals during the summer months. We all know that sometimes you can overdose, even, with the healthy supplements, and all that extra plowing took its toll on her. Her veins are slowly breaking down, and after this particularly bad year lesions have sprung up throughout her system. One particularly hard-hit site took place in her Grosvenor area where a 100-year-old gated fence succumbed to a vitamin P overdose.
Between instances like this and constant trouble with her continence, water-main breaks becoming more and more frequent, is it not understandable she is in such a state?
We all know about the major surgeries she requires, but her grey matter seems set on facelifts and Band-aids. Are those grey suits filling her head with grand ideas about stadiums and arenas and museums giving any thought to her circulatory problems, her foot rot or her angina?
Maybe what she really needs is a lobotomy.
Barbara Linklater is a retired Winnipeg teacher who loves to write.

United NationsPaper Rating: Word Count: 1300 Approx Pages: 5
When thinking of international actors, states come to mind for many. However, international actors can be most simply defined as any person, organization, or territory that has any economic or political influence on international affairs. Many intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizations are international actors. Founded in 1945, the United Nations is one of the best known of intergovernmental organizations and is most definitely an international actor.
The composition of the United Nations is quite simple. There are 185 member countries in the United Nations and, in the General Assembly, each member has one vote. The Security Council is made up of five permanent members (United States, Russia, France, United Kingdom, and China) and ten members that serve two-year terms. The Economic and Social Council is composed of 54 members, serving three-year terms, each with one vote. The Trusteeship Council has five members, each with one vote. Fifteen judges head the International Court of Justice, each serving a nine-year term. Finally, there are many associated agencies, including the World Heath Organization, the World Bank, and the Food and Agricultural Organization. For the most part, the United Nations is very democr

Recipe by Wayne
"Bored with traditional Greek salad? I personally do not like feta cheese so I substituted a good fat (avocados) in its place. I have removed the onion that is traditionally found in a Greek salad as it does not complement the addition of mangoes. You can use your favorite Greek salad recipe as well just leave out the onion and add the mango. Goes very well served along with grilled chicken, grilled vegetables, and rice."

Omg you guys!!! This stuff is the best. I want them all now. I hate gloss to be honest, everything dries my lips out. Even some chap sticks. So it's been hard to find something that doesn't dry my lips out but look nice. Gloss always felt gross and sticky. Makes me think cheap automatically. But this gloss is so different. I got blooming and rosy lipped. The colors look so good on me. Even my fiancé said something. My lips aren't dry, as compared to some lippies that you like initially, then they end up drying your lips out. This stuff doesn't! It's awesome. I want to get every shade. And it's less than five bucks! I may just hand them out to friends as an added gift for Christmas. Love!

I've long disliked lip gloss, though lately, I'm finding I like the newer, non-glittery formulas better and I thought Apple a Day was such a pretty color that I'd take the plunge. I loved it so much I went and bought another shade, Rosy Lipped. And then another ... and another. Now I have six.
I definitely love this glossy balm. It's a bit stickier than a balm and not as slick as a gloss. The texture feels nice, and stays on the lips better than some slicker formulas. There isn't really a strong scent or flavor. With a few shades, I notice a faint, almost candy-like scent, but it's subtle and fades very fast. I don't pick up any real flavor with any of these.
The colors a very pretty, but none a super strong, but for gloss, I prefer that. I feel like it's less likely to have some color wander outside of lip lines.
My favorite is Apple a Day and my pale lips get a bit of color kick, but it's still very natural looking, but if I add more it gives a pretty rosy pink color that isn't too cool or too warm. It's quickly become one of my favorites.
Second favorite is Just Plum Good, which is a deeper shade than Apple A Day, but it's still subtle. I also have Pink Pout (it looks fairly bright pink in the tube but is subtle) and Blooming Balm, which looks like a cooler, amped-up nude. Rosy Lipped is another nude shade, but warmer. And last is Apricot Pucker, which a bright, orange-y coral that's buildable -- a small swipe adds a touch of color, but apply more for more impact.
One last observation: It isn't the longest lasting formula -- most glosses don't last that long anyways -- but it's easy enough to apply on the fly. But I do think it lasts a lot longer than the greasy, slicker formulas. Another fun thing: The colors are fun to play with. I added a touch of the Apricot to Blooming Balm and came up with a pretty nude. They definitely work well alone or together.

I am in love with this lip gloss! I have Rosy Lipped and it suits my skin tone perfectly! It's a sheer wash of pinkish nude and the gloss is neither sticky or runny. The gloss doesn't last long but what gloss really does? Even after I eat it off (haha), my lips are softer than they were before I applied it. It's so fool proof, I apply it without using a mirror most times and it makes me look a lot more pulled together. A definite must buy!

The most amazing lip gloss and moisturizing lip balm. I hated the baby lips and I like the eos a little better. I love a little tint and a lot of moisture. It's so amazing. Everyone needs this if your lips get dry so amazing.

I have this balm in several colors. I've had the red, the light pink (my very favorite), the brighter pink (Pink Pout, I believe), the peach, and the purple. Some of the more intense colors (purple and red) I find go on unevenly, largely because it's a gloss and not a lipstick. I wouldn't call this stuff a balm, it really is more comparable to a gloss. I find these look great and they are sheer enough for those of us who don't wear dramatic lip colors. I have been easing into colored glosses for a couple of years now, and these really are my very favorite. I do think they are priced high for such a small tube, but they really are my go-to lip colors.

Age: 36-43 Skin: Dry, Medium, Warm Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Brown
I didn't like these. My drugstore had a BOGO sale so I bought 4 colors: Rosy Lipped (nude pink), Cantaloupe Creme (peach), Apricot Pucker (coraly orange), & Just Plum Good (plums are generally my fave lip color). I didn't like any of them, with the exception of Rosy Lipped but I already have enough nudes that look like wet bare lips, don't need more. So I refunded them all the next day. The formula is too thin for my taste (I generally prefer thick or sticky glosses that last longer) & the applicator didn't hold enough product for a decent application. If I have to dip 2 or 3 times, I won't use it. The plum came out a nice rosy shade on me but the color faded into paleness too quickly, so not worth keeping. The coral orange shade was just too orange, not enough coral. And the peachy cantaloupe shade was too chalky looking. Didn't moisturize any better than glosses I already use (Maybelline Color Elixir is actually very nice, though I wish the colors were more sheer). Glad I got my money back on these, sorry I didn't like them. I like lip glosses & sheer colors, but these just didn't do it for me.

Wasn't impressed at all. I purchased the Rosy Lipped color...I feel it barely shows up on my lips and just looks blah. As someone else mentioned, also gets gloppy if you try to put more coats to get it to show up. It also wears off too fast, and you have to reapply constantly. Would not bother with any other colors. Smell is ok though, and packaging is cute. Overall, very disappointed though.

this lipgloss moisturizes and adds a sheer colour but it can be added on to get a stronger colour by adding more gloss. It isn't sticky but it stays on for hours. It takes a couple minutesfor it to "sink" in to be a bit less sticky but it still is staying.

This is the most amazing lip gloss! For being such and anti-lipgloss person I think that these are great. Much better than the nyx butter glosses. I say that because those you really need a mirror and they are very streaky but these go right on perfectly. I only have it in just plum. It is so comfortable and this is the first time I have ever said that about a lip gloss! The pigmentation is somewhat sheer but that doesn't matter to me. Will be buying more soon!

I completely love this product. I have never tried any other Almay product so when I had a coupon for $4 off any Almay product I thought why not buy these Liquid Lip Balms. I fell in love with this product the minute I applied it to my lips. It has a nice smoothing application and the texture is not sticky, but has a little stick to it. The first color I bought happened to be Cantaloupe Creme. After purchasing this color for $5.99 and loving the color and pigmentation it left I went to Target and picked up two more shades, Blooming Balm and Apricot Pucker. First off, Cantaloupe Creme is a orange sort of coral color. In the bottle it looks very orange but when applied it is a light sheer wash of a nude. Blooming Balm is a pretty baby pink, when applied to the lips it is a sheer wash of sort of a frosty pink. Lastly Apricot Pucker is a red coral with some pink. Applied to my lips it just looks like a sheer red gloss covering my lips. Overall I really enjoy these liquid lip balms and look forward to buying the rest of the collection. Also there are 10 colors in the collection, of those 10 all are really nice Spring time colors.

The Importance of Romantic Rituals
by Michael Webb
My wife, Athena, and I have a daily ritual, which I think strengthens our marriage. Every afternoon (my office is in the house), we catch up with each other over a pot of hot tea. We learned to appreciate the daily ritual of taking tea after a visit to England.
With tea, we usually have a couple of cookies, banana bread or some other small snack item. While polishing off the pot of tea, we sit for 30 minutes or so and discuss how the day went and what our plans might be for that night or the rest of the week. We also discuss future plans and dreams or whatever is on our minds. It is a very worthwhile ritual and one that we plan on continuing indefinitely.
Many couples with children often ask me how they can add romance to their relationship being surrounded by children. I believe this is one way that couples can both spend some special time alone while setting a wonderful example for the children that their mom and dad really love each other. Of course, you don't have to take up drinking hot tea. You can come home and relax over a glass of coke, cup of coffee, or some other beverage while snacking on cookies or carrot sticks or whatever.
For parents with small children, it might be impossible to spend quiet time alone until after the children are put to bed. The importance is the uninterrupted time spent together. Whatever means you use to be able to do that consistently is up to you.
Michael Webb is the founder of TheRomantic.com and the best-selling author of The Romantic's Guide and 7 other books.

I use the jQuery URL parser plugin by Mark Perkins for extracting query string values from the current URL.
The parsing process fails when query string values contain the '@' character, most notably when there is an email address in the query string. This is in reference to the latest version of the plugin, taken from the github project page today.
Working and non-working examples
The parsing process populates the internal
parsed.queryKey object with key:value pairs from the query string.
Two modes are offered: 'loose' and 'strict'. Both return the same result.
// Parse URL that works
// Examine result
parsed.queryKey = {
// Parse URL that fails
// Examine result
parsed.queryKey = {
I'd like to be able to modify one (or both) regular expressions to overcome the issue of the parsing of query string arguments failing when there is an '@' present.
The parser uses regular expressions to extract information from the URL. These are defined on (what is currently) line 27:
parser: {
strict: /^(?:([^:\/?#]+):)?(?:\/\/((?:(([^:@]*):?([^:@]*))?@)?([^:\/?#]*)(?::(\d*))?))?((((?:[^?#\/]*\/)*)([^?#]*))(?:\?([^#]*))?(?:#(.*))?)/, //less intuitive, more accurate to the specs
loose: /^(?:(?![^:@]+:[^:@\/]*@)([^:\/?#.]+):)?(?:\/\/)?((?:(([^:@]*):?([^:@]*))?@)?([^:\/?#]*)(?::(\d*))?)(((\/(?:[^?#](?![^?#\/]*\.[^?#\/.]+(?:[?#]|$)))*\/?)?([^?#\/]*))(?:\?([^#]*))?(?:#(.*))?)/ // more intuitive, fails on relative paths and deviates from specs
I don't sufficiently understand the workings of these regular expressions to be able to make the required modifications.
How can I modify the regular expressions to allow the parsing process to work when the is an '@' present in the query string?

Arizona Cardinals
Updated Mar 9, 2013 - 5:55 pm
Arizona Cardinals release Early Doucet, tender offer to Brian Hoyer, extend offers to three others
The Arizona Cardinals announced they have released wide receiver Early Doucet, tendered an offer to free agent quarterback Brian Hoyer and extended offers to three exclusive rights free agents, running backs William Powell, Alfonso Smith and defensive end Ronald Talley.
Doucet had 28 receptions for 207 yards in 12 games last season for the Cardinals. In five seasons with the team ranging from 2008-12, the wideout had 139 receptions for 1,491 yards and seven touchdowns in 54 regular season games.
The Cardinals tendered a one-year qualifying contract offer to Hoyer. But as a restricted free agent, Hoyer can talk with other teams until April 19. Arizona has the right to match any offer or receive a second-round draft pick in return.

Arizona Cardinals
2014 NFL Draft: Around the NFC West
The 2013 season was a banner year for the NFC West. The division had a seven-win team (St. Louis Rams), three squads with at least 10 victories (Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks), two participants in the NFC Championship Game (49ers and Seahawks) and one Super Bowl champion (Seahawks).
Thursday, the division's four teams turned their collective eye towards the future, making four of the first 32 selections in the 2014 NFL Draft.
Here's how the night panned out for each team:
Round 1, Pick 2:
Les Snead wasted little time finding protection for oft-injured quarterback Sam Bradford, taking offensive tackle Greg Robinson out of Auburn. Robinson played two seasons with the Tigers and was named a first-team All-SEC member in 2013.
Round 1, Pick 13:
The Rams didn't just bulk up their offensive line, though. With their second selection of the first round, Snead nabbed Pittsburgh defensive tackle Aaron Donald. Donald had 11 sacks and four forced fumbles in 2013 -- making him a nice addition alongside the likes of Chris Long and Robert Quinn.
Round 1, Pick 27:
Steve Keim opted to move back in the first round, swapping the Cardinals' No. 20 overall pick for the New Orleans Saints' No. 27 and the No. 91 picks overall.
With the 27th pick, Arizona took safety Deone Bucannon, who led the Pac-12 in interceptions and total tackles as a senior.
Round 1, Pick 30:
For the second consecutive draft, Trent Baalke opted to add depth to his secondary, grabbing safety Jimmie Ward out of Northern Illinois.
The 5-foot-11 standout was a three-time All-MEAC selection.
Round 1, Pick 32:
John Schneider and the reigning Super Bowl champs decided to move out of the first round, sending their final pick of the night to the Minnesota Vikings for second (No. 40) and fourth round (No. 102) picks.
The Vikings then used the No. 32 pick to take Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

Toronto Plaza Hotel workers continue 11-week strike for better wages and benefits
Ontario Federation of Labour will join a rally for the workers Thursday, while the hotel's owner says he can't do better for employees while he's in the red.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Striking workers at the Toronto Plaza Hotel are upping pressure on management after nearly 11 weeks on the picket lines have failed to break a labour impasse.
About 40 workers at the 200-room hotel near the intersection of Highway 401 and Jane St. walked off the job on May 30 to protest cuts to wages, benefits and pensions, as well as what their union local described as "a culture of disrespect."
On Thursday, the Ontario Federation of Labour plans to hold a rally in front of the hotel on Wilson Ave. to bolster the half-dozen or so workers who have been taking shifts waving placards on the sidewalk.
Mohamed Baksh, a representative for the workers' United Steelworkers local, said employees accepted a wage freeze and cuts to their benefits and pensions in 2011 to help out the struggling business, with the understanding that those would be reinstated in spring of 2013.
"Essentially we gave them a break for two years," Baksh said.
But when negotiations for a new contract began, hotel owner Rehan Chaudary wanted to trim wages and reneged on returning benefits, said Baksh. Wage cuts would range from about $5 per hour to about $1 per hour.
The hotel has paid partial costs for workers to retain life, accident and death insurance through the USW, said Baksh.
Ionie Anderson worked in housekeeping for 14 years and would see her $13.44 per hour wage fall to $12.44.
"All of the cutbacks, dropping the benefits, the pay," Anderson said of her reasons for picketing. Anderson said her children are grown, which has taken some pressure off her household. But many employees are single parents trying to provide for their families, she said.
Callif Smith, a single mother of three, has worked at the hotel since 2000. "I have three kids to send to school. I can't work part-time for minimum wage," Smith said.
"We didn't need to go on strike — just give us some benefits. I have small kids, they need benefits."
Chaudary said the company wants to get their employees back to work and give them "a very good package." But the recession and the ballooning number of hotels in the area hit the Toronto Plaza Hotel hard.
Its rates and occupancy levels have fallen against competition from the likes of the Hilton, Marriott and Holiday Inn chains.
Chaudary, who has a number of other companies, said he's spent millions on the hotel since buying it four years ago, but it has yet to turn a financial corner.
"It still doesn't pay its way, we're in the negative. Every month I'm putting money in to save this company. We're struggling," said Chaudary.
"(The workers) got to realize something here. This place is dead. If we don't have a hotel, they don't have a job, I don't have a job … I know it's a kick in the butt, but you know what? It's a kick in the butt for me, too."
