Norval Eugene Turner (born May 17, 1952) is the head coach for the National Football League's San Diego Chargers. He also has served as head coach of the Washington Redskins and the Oakland Raiders, and as offensive coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys, San Diego Chargers, Miami Dolphins, and San Francisco 49ers. His explosive offense, built around a strong ground attack and the ability to strike fast via the deep pass, is referred to as "Norv-West Air", a play on the name of an airline with a similar name. He is the brother of former University of Illinois head football coach and former Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Ron Turner.
Turner was a student at Alhambra High School in Martinez, California. In football, he played quarterback and safety. He graduated from Alhambra in 1970 and then attended the University of Oregon, where he was a back-up quarterback to former San Diego Charger and Hall of Famer Dan Fouts.
After serving as a graduate assistant coach at Oregon, Turner was an assistant coach for the USC Trojans from 1976 to 1984. From 1985 to 1990, he was an assistant with the Los Angeles Rams. In the January 2008 issue of San Diego Magazine he was chosen as one of the "50 People to Watch in 2008."

DailyDirt: The Next Big Food Is... Weird
from the urls-we-dig-up deptFood fads are fascinating, especially when they turn previously disgusting biological curiosities into expensive delicacies. Lobsters were once only served to prisoners and lowly servants, but now these crustaceans are highly-priced entrees. Casu marzu is a traditional Italian cheese that contains live insect larvae (with an aftertaste that can reportedly last several hours). The maggots can jump about 6 inches, so diners should be careful to block these bugs from jumping into their mouths if they don't want to eat them. Casu marzu has a questionable legal status (for health and safety reasons), but it's sometimes available on the black market for a hefty markup in price. Here are just a few other menu items that might (or might not) be appetizing to you.
- Civet poop coffee is a delicacy, and you really need to know that your coffee beans have been partially digested by a civet cat from Indonesia. So if you're wondering if your coffee is fake, there's a test that can verify the flavor components of real Kopi Luwak. [url]
- Whelks can refer to any number of unrelated shellfish, but the commonly eaten ones are a particular kind of sea snail of the species Buccinum undatum. Whelks could become the next oyster in the seafood industry, or they could just remain unappetizing snotwinkles, as they're called in Canada. [url]
- In the early 1900s, the US faced "the meat question" -- a crisis over whether or not meat production could match the growing demand for meat products in the US. A seriously debated solution involved importing African hippos to the US -- in the same way that cows, pigs, sheep and poultry were introduced to the Americas -- and trying to convince Americans to eat hippopotamus meat.

There are plenty of gaming mice on the market, so how do you choose the one that's right for you. Maybe you want one that looks good, or perhaps you need a lot of extra buttons for your macros. Unfortunately, if you're a leftie, your choices become rather limited, due to the design of most mice. Thankfully NZXT knows how much of an issue this can be, and they have released the Avatar S, which can be used with either hand.
The "S" stands for "small", which may or may not be a good thing. If you've got smaller hands, then you're probably going to love this mouse. If not, you could be facing some serious hand cramps after a couple hours of gaming. If you want the full scoop on this mouse, head over to GamerFront to check out the complete review.

When I was planning to buy a 06-08 Toyota Camry I was choosing between 5 cars. So I got reports for each of them and found out that 4 cars were not in perfect condition, to say the least. The engine of the first one, judging by the images was severily damaged, another one had not actual mileage and 2 more had been hit in the front. So I bought the only one that had a clean history and happy I didn`t buy a lemon.

Ground Water administration and enforcement is one of the primary responsibilities of the Division of Water Resources, led by the State Engineer. By law, every new well in the state that diverts ground water must have a well permit. To obtain a permit, a person must file an application for approval of a permit with the State Engineer (see Forms). Approximately 4,000-5,000 applications are submitted for review annually and the staff of the State Engineer evalutes the applications under strict statutory guidelines.
The division, in cooperation with various local ground water management districts, operates a statewide network for monitoring ground water levels. Over 1,500 wells are measured to assist in projecting ground water levels and to aid in the administration of ground water. This information is available through the water level measurement reports (monitoring reports) issued each year.
The State Engineer also provides staff to assist in technical support to the Colorado Ground Water Commission, in the exercise of its duties in the Designated Basins, generally located on the eastern plains of Colorado. Well permits for wells located in these basins are evaluated by the staff of the State Engineer based on the Commission Rules.
Further, the State Engineer provides staff assistance for the Board of Examiners of Water Well and Pump Installation Contractors. This board oversees the safe and proper installation of well pump equipment, and regulates the proper, safe construction of wells throughout the state.
For more information, read the Guide to Well Permits, Water Rights, and Water Administration, or contact the Ground Water Information Desk (M-F) from 9am-4pm at (303) 866-3587.

With the catwalk-triumph today, the lady-killer veteran from the society La Faction Beta "Sheryo" became the first player to take home the title two years in a row in Singular's annual Calypso fashion-events, after he also won last year's 2010 He Man.
The charmed did his best to woo the lady audiences, and knew a fundamental fact about women; They love to laugh. So perhaps it was the Evil Clown Umbranoid get-up during the Underwear-routine that ultimately won the judges over? It was a stiff competition, and after a long deliberation the judges fell on Sheryo as the winner.
The fashion-giant Freyr and the always impressive Omega came on 3rd and 2nd respectively, and won each their helicopter.
It is not the first time this year that history have been made in the fashion competitions by Singular; Less than a week ago, miss Zunami became the first player to have won Miss Calypso more then once.
Sheryo and Zunami in their matching prizes.

Presents EUWBC LIVE!
Last weekend Entropia Webo-Vision covered the annual event known as EUWBC, and what a weekend they had in store for us! I have to give credit to Oleg for pulling off such a fun and intense event, not only was it well organized but also most of the time it was running on schedule.
We sat there watching and covering the event for 10 hour slots each day, however my favorite fight of them all had to be Beechbum Vs Centech, in the 3rd round, Centech decided he had had enough, so he said "Oh, screw this!", pulled out a DOA and well, the rest can be seen in the video below:
During the weekend there was many close fights. One that was so close that it was too close to call. If you want to check it out for yourself, Entropia Webo-Vision is proud to present a selection of on demand fights, and to top that off, 6 hours of raw footage from our live broadcast!

For more information about EUWBC visit the PCF-thread here.
About Entropia Webo-Vision, EUWV is a new Web channel based around Entropia, in the future, we promise to bring more live coverage of events, with multiple commentators, live shows and much much more. The idea of this is to allow those that cant get into eu, are too busy doing other stuff in eu or just busy with Real Life to keep up to date with the latest events, with the possibility to stream to mobile phones, the only limit is the imagination...
In addition to our EUWBC-coverage, we will be producing top quality Entropia Universe Films that are set to begin production in 2011. Stay tuned.

Now I finally have a pretty good idea on what it may have been like to witness the Immaculate Reception in real time.
I have had the following list on file for the last few weeks, and I am now updating it for the third time this month.
Here is list of the most dramatic final plays in college football history.
10. Northwestern vs. Nebraska (2013)
Only because this is still so fresh, it has to be included. Many NU fans would vote for the "kick ball" caught by Matt Davison on the final play of regulation at Missouri in 1997 (which had a Raiders "Holy Roller" aspect to it). That play led to a Cornhuskers victory and, ultimately, a share of the National Championship. Since I've made my criteria as "final play of the game" I will roll with this.
9. SMU vs. BYU (1980)
I never was able to duplicate the final four-plus minutes in a re-creation of the 1980 Holiday Bowl on the EA Sports college football game. With SMU leading 45-25, BYU coach LaVell Edwards appeared ready to call off the dogs and sent in the punting unit on fourth down, only to be vetoed by quarterback Jim McMahon, who ordered his offense to remain on the field.
What happened went down as follows: Fourth down conversion and eventual Cougar touchdown. Then an onside kick recovery followed by another touchdown to make it 45-39. Then a blocked punt which gave McMahon one last play to heave the ball 40 yards into the end zone.
The Ray Scott call on the Mizlou network was epic, "Receivers are down there, defenders are down there…" Tight end Clay Brown fought off several SMU players to capture the ball like a Black Friday shopper grabbing control of a PlayStation 4 to secure the touchdown. Technically it was not the final play, the was the ensuing PAT that gave BYU the 46-45 win.
Some BYU fans may vote for this final play touchdown v. arch-rival Utah from 2006, but I think the rest of us know that win over SMU should get the nod.
8. Wisconsin vs. Michigan St. (2011)
I had a bad feeling about this play when receiver Jared Abberderis was sent in as a defensive back. Kirk Cousins' completion to Keith Nichol was originally ruled down short of the goal line, but then ruled a game-ending touchdown by instant replay.
The Badgers would be victimized again the very next week at Ohio State.
7. Southern Mississippi vs. Louisville (1989)
When it happened, this hardly made a sound. It was the final play between two mid-major teams and was authored by a quarterback who only Southern Miss fans and die-hard NFL Draftniks cared about.
What it wound up being was a Brett Favre prequel.
With one final play, Favre was about to be forced out of bounds at his own 10-yard line when he let the ball fly. The best part of the grainy video was the Louisville band member cussing at the Southern Miss receiver after he hauled in the in the deflected 80-yard winning touchdown.
6. Colorado vs. Michigan (1994)
Kordell Stewart to Michael Westbrook, a throw that went 70-plus yards in the air. Stewart may had been a maligned NFL quarterback, but the man had an arm. Rae Carruth was also in the neighborhood when the deflection was made.
The Colorado at Missouri fifth down from 1990 could have also made the list, but instead that goes under the category of most screwed-up finishes ever.
5. LSU vs. Kentucky (2002)
Kentucky considered this a done deal. The coach had already gotten a Gatorade bath and fans were ready to celebrate a rare win over the Bayou Bengals.
After the final play, Kentucky fans stormed the field and tried to tear down a goal post while the Jefferson-Pilot television network inadvertently flashed the final score as a 30-27 Wildcat win.
One problem, Devery Henderson had caught a deflection for a 75-yard score to steal the 33-30 win for LSU coach Nick Saban. Eleven years later Saban would realize life at the other end of a bad beat.
4. Stanford v. California (1982)
Many still have the band play as No. 1 on the list, and Joe Starkey might get credit for the best radio call ever.
But as the Cal radio man Starkey had right to go all-in on the call, on Stanford radio, the play-by-play man warned the Cardinal would not kick it deep because the previous week SMU won a game with a surprise lateral on a late kickoff.
It deserves a lofty ranking, but truth is "The Game" that year was between two middle-of-the-road Pac-10 teams, Stanford being so despite having John Elway.
Unfortunately, Rae Carruth is not the only player on this list now doing time. Cal player Mariet Ford is now doing 45 years to life after being convicted of killing his pregnant wife and son in 1997.
3. Georgia v. Auburn (2013)
Not final play of the game but close enough and dramatic enough. Fourth and 18 might as well have been fourth and 73 when Nick Marshall threw it long, and two Georgia defenders deflected the ball perfectly to Ricardo Louis in a play very similar to LSU/Kentucky 11 years earlier. At the time, CBS commentator Gary Danielson thought he had seen it all. He hadn't.
2. Boston College v. Miami (1984)
Years before becoming a ESPN Radio announcer, Dan Davis was voice of Boston College football, where his call of the Doug Flutie Hail Mary lives on. After making a miraculous shot at a charity golf event, fans in the gallery yelled, "Davis did it!" in tribute to his call from a generation earlier.
This game was already a classic even without the ending. The duel between Flutie and Bernie Kosar continues to stand the test of time. It took 30-plus years to finally bump Flutie to Phelan from the top of this list.
1. Alabama v. Auburn (2013)
I'll call this now, look for a tenth-second clock in football starting next year.
This immediately enters "Greatest Game Ever" discussion. Look at what there was before the final play: A.J. McCarron 99-yard touchdown pass, going for it on fourth-and-one because the kicking game had been so awful. A holding penalty (on Chris Davis) that nullified a potential first and goal late in the fourth quarter.
Before an Auburn time out as Bama lined up for the 57-yard field goal, Chris Davis was playing on the line off the edge. Gus Malzahn then decided to put Davis back deep in case the field goal landed short. The rest is history.
If Florida State vs. Ohio State were to be the National Championship game, we can only dream of a Alabama vs. Auburn sequel in the Sugar Bowl.
Because of the rivalry, what was at stake and the manner of finish that shocked everybody this makes the top of the list.
This will be relived for generations.

This appears to be kind of like those Kafka-esque errors that big government sometimes make [1] (and which reinforce the arguments against the "if you're not doing anything wrong you don't need privacy" position), with the added factor that there is absolutely nothing that can be done about it.
I suppose an individual programmer could bring civil suit against Google (and its undoubtedly huge population of lawyers) citing material damages for being forbidden from participating in the Google/Play/app store, but I wouldn't be too sanguine about his chances of succeeding …
[1] – since the foreign workers program seems to be being used primarily to bring in workers for the oil and gas sector right now, do you think it would help if she offered to mount a production of "Grease"?

Underworld (2003 film)
"That girl? I taught her everything she knows"
"She can definitely kick ass"
"Blood donation made pleasant"
Underworld is a
movie documentary about a vampirette named Selene. Selene is an assassin dedicated to the servitude of the european vampire coven (based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and run by a bunch of vampire Nazi folks), and she is also famous for her black leather wardrobe and of course her magnificent one night stands and wild parties.
Her most favorite past times include hunting down werewolves with her never-running-out-of-bullets guns, which is very fortunate, and finding new ways of wrecking other's people cars that let her drive, which is very unfortunate.
Selene Facts[edit]
- If you lined every bullet Selene has used during the last 100 years up end-to-end, the resulting chain would stretch from the Earth to the moon and almost halfway back.
- Yeti has to do frequent shaving, due to his fear of being confused by Selene as a werewolf.
- Global warming is caused to a 60% by the heat produced by Selene's guns.
- The last thing that goes through a werewolf's mind when encounters Selene is always the same. A silver bullet.
Dating Selene[edit]
Many people want to, thank all those Dracula movies glorifying female fang-owners for that, so let's cut to the chase, and here is all you need to know:
Advantages of dating Selene[edit]
- The sexiness
- Skin-tight black leather
- Wealthiness
- Blood-drinking chick
- Hates everything that has a fur on it
- And most importantly... Michael the hybrid will fuck you up
Disadvantages of dating Selene[edit]
- Her fangs, although good looking, will scratch anything that gets in her mouth (yes, you little prick, I do mean everything!)
- People will look strange at both of you due to her outfit (no, it's not because they are jealous)
- 600 year old virgin (really!)
The impulse that started the making of the Underworld
movie documentary[edit]
Fact: No cloned blood has ever been approved by any government for medical use (Did I forgot to say that the vampires made cloned blood that hoped to sell as medical supply in order to make millions? Whoops, spolier!). However, the european/nazi/whatever vampire coven was in desperate need of cash so that they could continue buying and breaking as many expensive cars as possible. So Selina made a deal with director Len Wiseman (well known for his movies with the fictional character Kate Beckinsale) to make a film biography of her life.
Since the public was already fed up of motorshows with losers breaking expensive cars, they decided to deliberately start a war with the werewolves. The war was supposed to be secret. The script was supposed to be all blood and gore (but ended-up showing Selene breaking expensive cars, of course). Len was supposed to become rich (but latter lost everything when he divorced Selene, who had married during filming).
movie documentary[edit]
The original
movie documentary was in *ahem* tight budget. The fortunate thing was that, since Len Wiseman and the rest of the crew were in pills causing artificial erection during filming, the movie documentary ended up filmed in blue-white, which helped trim the coloring cost significantly. As a result, the film didn't exeeded it's 2,4$ initial budget. Also, most of the filming was done in a city landscape, as promised by the ruler of the city of Amsterdam, who also happens to be the ruler of the european vampire nazi coven, which resulted in reducing the cost of the movie even more, as the inhabitants were glad to lend their homes and streets for filming if they wanted to keep their heads attached to their necks.
The racism against Werewolves[edit]
Poor saps, they were shown as the filthy, ugly, angry and rabid creatures of the night. Now everybody in these front rows can feel delighted every time Selene Hotpants and her partners take out one more of these creatures, in their effort to get the world rid of the werewolf menance. I mean, who cares who is in the right side of the war? Vampires are cool, so we will stick with them! Die werewolves, die! You and your horrible stench. Of course, Selene and her partners are all fascist trash, who, at the start of the film are presented as the most saint, protective, fair-judging vampires of the whole damn world, but lets skip that and focus on the real purpose of the film (Selene's ass). Now, cheer for the vampires people. I said, cheer for the vampires people! Yeah, know you 're right, that's how Len wants you to watch the movie.
The Underworld curse[edit]
Besides her obvious advantages, Selene has difficulties in getting herself a decent boyfriend for a quite long period of time. This happens due to the Underworld curse: everytime a new Undeworld film gets
released announced, she is forced to break up dump like a used tissue the previous guy, and rub herself into a new one in order to be able to provide hot vampire XXX action for the new film
List of break ups:[edit]
- Underworld 1: Michael Sheen goes, rubs herself into Len Wiseman (action here was besides the scenes, but this made her so badass in-movie)
- Underworld, gimme hard your Evolution: Len got enough of her, time for Scot Speedman to get some (stupidly missplaced scence in a wearhouse, with hypothetically hot action (Scot was too high to reach, the moron) in her belly button (omg!), but with a strategically placed hand infront of b00bs).
- Underworld Promiscuity: (under production) The relatiosnship with Scot isn't going as expected (Seen that punk'd episode? No? You missed...), but it still quite holds stong, but, hey, they are still filming. Info about the new guy will be released as it becomes available.

The Central Connecticut women's soccer team earned its second NEC win of the season over Northeast Conference leader Saint Francis U on Sunday afternoon by a score of 2-1. The Blue Devils are now 2-2 in conference play, handing the Red Flash (4-1 NEC) their first NEC loss.
Sophomore Claire Walsh scored in the 47th minute of play to put the Blue Devils on the board early in the second half. Following a saved CCSU penalty kick, taken by senior Jewel Robinson, the Blue Devils earned a corner kick. Walsh took a rebound off of junior Tori Sousa's corner for her first goal of the season.
Ten minutes later, freshman Morgan Santoro sent a shot from outside the box high into the net to notch CCSU's second and final goal. The goal is her second of the year.
Saint Francis U attempted to recover the deficit as senior Tesa McKibben scored past CCSU goalkeeper Nikola Deiter for the Red Flash's lone goal.
The Blue Devils kicked off the match by putting good pressure on the Red Flash defense, dominating the field and outshooting Saint Francis U 9-7 in the first period.
Central posted two shots on goal in the first half, one from Santoro, and another from sophomore Cailynn Harding. Harding's shot was a swift header off of a CCSU corner kick that was batted from the net by Red Flash keeper Abbey Collins.
Despite the first half close calls, the squads were tied at halftime.
In the second half, the Blue Devils posted 12 additional shots compared to just three for SFU. Central totaled 21 shots, nine on goal, compared to 10 for Saint Francis U, two on goal.
Deiter registered just one save on the day while Collins tallied seven for the Red Flash.
The Blue Devils will continue NEC action when they take on the Knights of Fairleigh Dickinson on the road on Friday, Oct. 25, at 7 p.m.

An interesting stat came out in the Oracle-Google trial today: in 2009 and 2010, Google's revenue from Android was far smaller than its internal projections.You can see details in the slide below, which Oracle got admitted as evidence.
The big reason for the shortfall was that direct to consumer (DTC) revenue was much smaller than expected — $125 million short of expectations in the first five months of 2010, and an estimated $445 million short for the year.
Originally, Google sold the Nexus One directly to consumers through its Web store, allowing them to choose their own carrier.
But Google changed direction in May after sales were low. At the time, Google boss Andy Rubin wrote "it's clear that many customers like a hands-on experience before buying a phone, and they also want a wide range of service plans to chose from."
So it didn't work. But if it had, Google would have made a lot more money from Android.
Nexus One DTC sales were supposed to account for $561 million in revenue. But after Google changed course, it lowered its forecast to $115 million in revenue.
Cancelling the DTC model also killed margins for Android. Google originally expected to lose $38 million on Android in 2010. After cancelling the DTC model, Google predicted it would lose $113 million.
In other words, the failure of the Nexus One direct-to-consumer model cost Google almost $450 million in lost revenue and $75 million in lost profits.
Flash forward two years. Just yesterday, Google announced that it would begin selling the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus through Google Play, its new online store.
Google is also buying Motorola, and sources tell us that Google wants to follow the Apple model of making and selling its own phones.
Of course they will. In addition to solving a bunch of other problems — like ending fragmentation and helping to push other Google services — the business opportunity is too big to ignore.
Google might fail again, but it has to try.
Here's the chart. DTC is "direct to consumer."

If you do much work in New Testament, early church, or Jesus-studies, you will no doubt come across references to this work. Although it is written much later than the NT writings, it is written about a man named Apollonius who lived a generation after Jesus (ca. 40-100 AD). Apollonius was a Neopythagorean philosopher around whom stories of his teachings and miraculous deeds arose. Although Apollonius never claimed any kind of divinity for himself, these stories were used by men such as Porphyry to show that Jesus, as a miracle-worker, was not a unique individual. Even Eusebius of Caesarea got into this argument, writing back against such claims that Apollonius was a fraud and charlatan and that Philostratus was just telling stories that had no real connection with the truth.

LMFAO is in the house tonight! And, we get the scoop from SkyBlu and Redfoo on post-Super-Bowl madness, working with the great Madonna, and what they're doing to make a "Party Rock" planet.
What was the best thing about performing at the Super Bowl (other than it being THE Super Bowl, of course)?
One of the best things about performing at the Super Bowl was working with Madonna. What a model for success! Also being surrounded by such family-oriented and successful people. I really got to experience this NFL family vibe first hand, meeting and spending time with Jonathan Kraft, an owner of the Patriots, getting to party with his team after the game, and being able to perform at various parties leading up to the Super Bowl in Indy, a town filled with such amazing people and energy.
Redfoo, you had the queen of pop on your shoulders at one point how'd you get the queen of pop to agree to that? And, how was it?
Madge has a clear vision of exactly what she wants and she surrounds herself with amazing talent to get it done. Madonna on my shoulders was her idea. I felt like her party knight in shining armor. I hit the gym a little extra in the days leading up to make sure I executed.
Did Madge have any wise words for you guys before the show?
Yes, she huddled us together and said the most beautiful and uplifting speech. She said something like what we do as entertainers is to make people happy, but more importantly, we bring everybody together. That resonated with me. I got this really happy feeling in my body.
Happy with the results of the game?
Jonathan Kraft, Patriot's owner, had booked me at the Patriot's after party win or lose, so of course I wanted the Patriots to win. When they lost, my job became even more apparent and my mission was to lift the spirits of the players, the fans and the organization and to really test the power of Party Rocking. Being able to get the players, fans and organization dancing and partying was one of the best experiences of my life. So much family in the air.
What's next for you guys?
Working on new music always. Touring the world and making this a Party Rock planet. We're releasing our next music video for "Sorry for Party Rocking". Something that I'm extremely
excited about is launching a new DJ app on the iPhone called Beat Rock, simply putting the party in your hands. It's my new DJ platform.
Q&A: Party Rocking With LMFAO
LMFAO is in the house tonight! And, we get the scoop from SkyBlu and Redfoo on post-Super-Bowl madness, working with the great Madonna, and what they're doing to make a "Party Rock" planet.

4 Beau Nasty – Dirty, But Well Dressed (Release Year – 1989)
In 1989, every record label on the planet was out to sign the next big glam metal band.
CBS tabbed Beau Nasty as their act. This band seemed to be doomed for failure as quickly as they began.
They had a big name producer for their debut with Beau Hill (RATT, Winger).
Dirty, But Well Dressed has solid tunes, and a cool cover of the Lieber and Stoller track Love Potion # 9. The problem was, nothing really made Beau Nasty stand out amongst the crowd of new bands that the labels were signing. This has to be one of the reasons that led to the band's quick demise.
Beau Nasty member, George Bernhardt is now playing with Rick Springfield, and Mike Terrana is bashing the skins for Masterplan.
The CD Dirty, But Well Dressed will appeal to hair metal fans, but very few others. I thought it was a fun disc, and is one that I return to from time to time, even if it is only to go back and check out a few of the more obsure bands in my collection. This disc has been out of print for a while, and is becoming more rare than hens teeth. If you want a copy of it, I would recommend grabbing one off of Ebay, as the prices have been getting out of control on this one.
You can hear more of the tunes at a fan made Beau Nasty, myspace page here.
Rating: Out of 10
Track Listing:
1. Shake It
2. Goodbye Rosie
3. Gimme Lovin'
4. Paradise In The Sand
5. Dirty, But Well Dressed

The latest update to the LastPass Chrome extension now warns you when you are logging in to an account with a weak or duplicate password. The new feature will help you be more proactive in updating insecure passwords to strong, unique ones generated by LastPass!
When you're logging in to a site, LastPass will flag the password as "weak" if it detects that you received a score below 50% for that specific password in the LastPass Security Challenge. It will also flag the password as a "duplicate" if you are using the same password for another login stored in LastPass.
When a weak or duplicate password is detected, the LastPass icon turns yellow. Clicking the LastPass icon shows the warning, recommending that you update the password immediately.
Since you are now logged in to the account, you can navigate directly to the password change page for the site, and use LastPass to generate a new, strong password. If the "generate" notification doesn't appear, you can always use the "Generate Password" function from the LastPass icon menu.
Once you've submitted the changes to the site, LastPass will also ask you to confirm the changes, and you're done!
If for some reason you do not want to update the password for the site, you can choose to "disable" the alert so you are not prompted again. You can also disable alerts entirely if you do not wish to use this feature.
Remember, you can always re-run the LastPass Security Challenge to see a comprehensive analysis of your stored passwords – you can launch it from the new alerts directly, or you can open it from the Tools sub-menu in the LastPass icon.
The feature will soon be rolled out to other browsers, but is currently only available in Chrome. Most users should receive the update automatically when they restart their browser, but if a manual reinstall is needed you can do so from our download page.
What do you think of the new feature? Leave your feedback in the comments below!

FCC Chair on E-Rate for Schools and Net Neutrality
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski (Credit: FCC)
by Larry Magid
October 22, 2010
As chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Julius Genachowski is playing a key role in what could turn out to be sweeping changes in the way the Internet reaches children in schools and libraries. He's also the point man in a national debate on Net neutrality as some Internet service providers square off against activists who demand that the federal government ensure that companies not be able to prioritize network traffic.
Prior to his appointment as FCC chairman by President Obama in 2009, Genachowski spent more than a decade in the private sector as co-founder of LaunchBox, a managing director of Rock Creek Ventures, and as an executive at IAC/InterActiveCorp.
E-Rate to be "modernized"
I interviewed Genachowski two days before a scheduled FCC meeting where the Commission is expected to approve changes in the E-rate program. E-Rate, established by Congress in the Telecommunications Act of 1996, taps into the Universal Service Fund from fees paid by telecommunications subscribers to provide telecommunications and Internet access to schools and libraries.
Genachowski was at the Computer Museum in Mountain View, Calif., yesterday to speak at a forum sponsored by Common Sense Media on "Back to School: Learning and Growing in a Digital Age." According to the FCC, 97 percent of American schools and nearly all public libraries have basic Internet access but 78 percent of E-Rate recipients told the agency that they need faster connections. "Many schools and teachers complained that the Internet access they had is too slow to take advantage of the opportunities of digital tools for the students," Genachowski said. (Scroll down to listen to the podcast.)
Addressing the growing educational use of mobile technology, he said that "for the first time we're going to begin a pilot program to have E-Rate cover mobile. There are huge opportunities here in e-textbooks and interactive learning materials." He added that teachers increasing know that they want kids to have access to broadband wherever they are and to do not just digital classwork but digital homework." The chairman also talked about wanting to make "a world of knowledge available to every kid, wherever they were born, whatever school district they live in, and whatever country they're in."
Net neutrality
I also asked Genachowski about Net neutrality, which has been a very hot topic for the FCC. We spoke exactly one year after he gave a speech (PDF) where he outlined strong support for treating all network traffic equally. In the ensuing months there have been delays in implementing new rules and complaints from advocacy groups such as Free Press, Media Access Project, and Public Knowledge arguing that Genachowski has so far failed to follow up on his promises.
In the interview, Genachowski said, "We're making real progress and seeing more and more widespread recognition that we need to have these six enforceable principals (PDF) to preserve the free and open Internet." When asked about the accusations that the agency hasn't fulfilled his promises to guarantee neutrality, he responded: "There are still some difficult substantive issues to work out. We're doing that now in consultation with the broadest degree of stakeholders and we need to make sure in view of some court decision that came out over the last year that we have find a sustainable legal foundation."

MySQL Cluster support for Django
2 comments:
- Stewart Smith said...
hrrm... rather confusing name as it's a "MySQL Cluster" backend but it backs on to a replication setup and not a MySQL Cluster backend. hrrm..

Stewart: You are correct. To use the MySQL Cluster (NDB) from Django, you only need to use the regular backend. This is a rw-master/ro-slave(s) replication setup. However one could argue that this sort of replication scheme is a type of cluster; it's just not what MySQL AB means by the term.

In the 'you-can't-make-up-this-stuff' category, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is spending about $1.1 million to develop a way to physiologically measure how engaged students are by their teachers' lessons. This involves "galvanic skin response" bracelets that kids would wear so their engagement levels could be measured.
If this tells us anything, it is that the obsession with measurement and data in school reform has reached new nutty heights.
Here's the description of the $498,055 grant to Clemson University that was awarded in November (but that just recently became widely known by Susan Ohanian and Diane Ravitch):
Purpose: to work with members of the Measuring Effective Teachers (MET) team to measure engagement physiologically with Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) bracelets which will determine the feasibility and utility of using such devices regularly in schools with students and teachers.
Ohanian notes here that the kind of technology needed to develop galvanic bracelets is part of the "emerging field of neuromarketing," which "relies on biometric technologies to determine a participant's emotional and cognitive response to certain stimuli."

Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese are kicking around the idea of turning their upcoming gangster film into a two-part epic that would also chronicle their history together.
The two film greats have been planning a movie called "The Irishman," about mobster Frank Sheehan, the man who is believed to have killed Jimmy Hoffa.
"It's based on a book called 'I Heard You Paint Houses.' It's a very simple, terrific story about [mobster Frank Sheehan], who supposedly killed Hoffa and Joe Gallo and so on," De Niro told MTV while doing press for his upcoming Tribeca Film Festival.
U.S. & World
"We have a more ambitious idea, hopefully, to make it a two-part type of film or two films," he continued. "It's an idea that came about from Eric Roth to combine these movies using the footage from 'Paint Houses' to do another kind of a [film that is] reminiscent of a kind of '8 1/2,' 'La Dolce Vita,' [a] certain kind of biographical, semi-biographical type of Hollywood movie — a director and the actor — based on things Marty and I have experienced and kind of overlapping them."
The two men have made eight films together, including classics like "Mean Streets," "Taxi Driver" and "Goodfellas." Their last collaboration was some 15 years ago, when they made "Casino," before Scorsese left De Niro for a younger man, Leonard DiCaprio.
Since then, Scorsese hasn't reached the heights of his glorious past, he has finally won an Oscar, for "The Aviator," and made some very good films, while De Niro has spent much of his time slumming in tired comedies like the "Meet the Parents" franchise. A reunion with Scorsese could be just what he needs to get back into the swing of things.

I haven't been posting but I have been buying! Here's everything I've picked up in the last couple weeks online and at the record stores…..
Record Stores
Dream Theater – Black Clouds & Silver Linings (2009) – $15: The new Dream Theater came out last Tuesday and I had a choice of 2 stores to pick up the 3 CD limited edition: Newbury Comics or Best Buy. I went with Best Buy because it was $5 cheaper. The 3 CD set breaks down as follows: Disc 1 is the new studio album, Disc 2 is a bonus disc of 6 cover songs and Disc 3 is the studio album again but as instrumental mixes only. All together it's 3 hours and 17 minutes of music on 3 CDs for the price of one regulary priced album…..a good deal!
Primal Fear – 16.6 (Before The Devil Knows You're Dead) (2009) – $16: Picked this up a couple of weeks ago at Newbury Comics when the album was released officially in the U.S. The cool thing was that the only copy the store had was the European version with the 2 bonus tracks and the video…..I prefer the extra material even if that means paying a couple extra bucks. I have only had a few spins so far but it sounds like another updated sound added to the Classic Metal assault.
Spinal Tap – Back From the Dead (2009) – $9.99: New album from Spinal Tap, great sale price from Newbury Comics! A lot of extras included in the package: the CD has 19 songs (6 new and 13 re-recorded from the soundtrack), an hour long DVD and the CD packaging folds out to become paper dolls of the band and Stonehenge! The only complaint is that there is no slipcase to keep everything in but it's definitely a cool way to put together a CD.
Axel Rudi Pell – Best Of (Anniversary Edition) (2009) – $8.99: I don't have much Axel Rudi Pell in the collection except for a few of the newer records so I figured a retrospective release like this would give me a taste of some of the older material. I picked this up mostly based on the sale price and it fit in nicely with the Primal Fear and Spinal Tap purchases.
Jester – Digitalia/Tales From The Boogieman (2000 reissue) – $2.50: Back when print fanzines were still a viable source of info, I heard about New Jersey's Jester. I think this was around 1997 when their debut TALES FROM THE BOOGIEMAN was released on Pulse Records. I always wanted to check them out but I never got around to it and now the CD is out of print, same with DIGITALIA, now that Pulse Records is no more. Escape Music came around in 2000 and reissued DIGITALIA with new cover art and TALES as a bonus CD. Some retailers still have this for $17-$20 online but I was able to snag this on Ebay for less than $3.
Lita Ford – Dancin' On The Edge (1984) – $21: I have been after this CD for a long time. I had it listed in the WANTED! column for about a year now and my patient searching brought me a copy at a decent price. $21 may seem like a high price to pay considering the original release was probably $12-$15 but this CD regularly goes over the $30 range. This was one of those short auctions (3 days) so I came in quick with a last minute bid.
Anvil – Plugged In Permanent (1996) – $22: I'm slowly filling all the holes in my Anvil collection after seeing the Anvil movie. I noticed that a lot of the later albums have Japanese pressings with bonus tracks and this album gives Japan one with 'Stolen'. There were 2 copies on Ebay: this Japanese pressing from a seller I have bought from in the past and the regular U.S./Euro pressing without 'Stolen'. Both were $17 so but the shipping was $2 more for the Japanese pressing. I paid the extra $2 for the extra track.
Online Stores
UFO – The Visitor (2009) – $22.50: I've had a promo copy of this album for a few months now but I have to have an actual copy when it comes to on of my favorite bands. The bonus track 'Dancing With St. Peter' isn't on the promo and I wanted to hear the updated version by UFO…..the song was the title track of the Phil Mogg fronted side project $ign of 4. The album of the same name was released in 2002. The only copy of THE VISITOR readily available was the U.S. version without the extra song so I ordered the Euro version from HMV.com.
One of the things I'm doing now more then ever is ordering online. The UFO CD from HMV is what I consider a one time thing but I have been browsing NEH Records, Sentinel Steel and CD Inzane more often lately. There are just certain albums that the local record stores are not going to stock! So here's my latest order from CD Inzane…..
Solna – Eurameric (2009) – $13: I knew nothing about this all-star project except for the fact that CD Inzane founder Zane Petersen (from China Blue)produced it and played drums. There are a lot of guests on this album including Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear), Pamela Moore (Queensryche) and Alex De Rosso (Dokken). There are more people included and it kind of follows the path taken by other projects like Ayreon and Avantasia. I haven't given it a spin yet but I've read some great reviews.
Solna – Sent From Heaven E.P. (2009) – $4: This 6 song E.P. was released prior to EURAMERIC and included 5 songs that are on the album and an E.P.-only bonus track titled 'I Light A Candle Too'. Only 2000 copies were pressed and the CD was on sale for $3 + $1 shipping…..can't beat that. I figured that I might as well grab the E.P. along with the proper album to have all the songs in the collection.
Bloodbound – Tabula Rasa (2009) – $12: I have to plead ignorance on Bloodbound because I've never actually heard any of the band's music, the only thing I know is from the reviews I've read online and they all seem to be really positive about TABULA RASA. The album was $5 cheaper at CD Inzane than at NEH Records so I picked it up right away. I have the U.S./Euro version that includes a bonus video…..I hear the Japanese import has a bonus track instead.
Nocturnal Rites – The 8th Sin (2007) – $5: Over the years I have picked up almost all the the Nocturnal Rites albums as they have been released but, for some strange reason, I never bothered to pick up THE 8TH SIN a couple of years ago. I was going through the CD Inzane clearance section and there this CD was for $5! The bargain is better because it's the limited edition with the bonus DVD with videos, live tracks, and documentaries on the band's European Tour 2005 and Japanese Tour 2006. The regular version was $12 & the limited edition was $5…..easy choice! The bonus DVD is PAL format but my DVD-ROM drive on the computer plays PAL.
Gothic Knights – Up From The Ashes (2003) – $5: An online clearance section can be even more lucrative for finding CD treasure than your local record stores used bins! I couldn't help but notice that this Gothic Knights album was a mere $5 so I grabbed it too! I looked at this album on Ebay for $15 to $20 depending on the seller…..even Sentinel Steel couldn't match the price on a used copy! Now I only need the out of print debut from Gothic Knights.
U.D.O. – Infected E.P. (2009) – $12: I wasn't going to make the same mistake of not ordering the E.P. that comes before the proper album like I did with THE WRONG SIDE OF MIDNIGHT E.P. in 2007 before the MASTERCUTOR album came out. U.D.O. always has E.P. exclusive songs and INFECTED is in different: 2 non-album tracks, a remix and a live track to go along with the title track that comes from the new upcoming record DOMINATOR. The E.P. is limited to 2222 copies worldwide so I acted fast.
