Introducing the Business Rail, a new weekly feature that will have standing topics (Number to Know, A Dollar Just Doesn't Go Far These Days), news snippets and more.
Number to Know: $350 million The worth of soccer club Manchester United, making it the most valuable sports franchise in the world, according to Forbes. By comparison, the New York Yankees are fourth with a value of $217 million, and the Boston Red Sox are ninth with $125 million. What Are They Thinking? Introducing a new product that makes us scratch our heads: Sweat-flavored soda Jones Soda Co., in cooperation with the Seattle Seahawks, announced it is going to introduce five football-inspired flavors – and that includes sweat. The flavors are Perspiration, Dirt, Sports Cream, Natural Field Turf and Sweet Victory. Is anyone really going to want to drink a beverage that tastes like sweaty gym socks? Well, to each his own. A Dollar Just Doesn't Go As Far These Days A dairy in Japan is selling a quart of milk for $43. Not all the milk, though, just the kind taken from cows once a week at dawn. This super milk is said to contain higher levels of melatonin, which can lower anxiety and ward off depression. And if you get anxious and depressed about all the money you're shelling out, the milk will cure it and you'll be back to where you were! A Dollar Just Doesn't Go As Far These Days, Part II A 157-year-old Scotch was sold for almost $60,000 Friday at auction, according to the AFP. So that's how much per shot? Too much. Big Surprise Here Forbes released its list of top-earning TV personalities, and, surprise surprise, Oprah tops the list. And how! She makes $200 million more than the next-biggest earner, Jerry Seinfeld ($60 million). Rounding out the top 10 are Simon Cowell ($45 million), David Letterman ($40 million), Donald Trump ($32 million), Jay Leno ($32 million), Dr. Phil McGraw ($30 million), Judy Sheindlin ($30 million), George Lopez ($26 million) and Kiefer Sutherland ($22 million). Good Planning, Navy The Navy plans to spend about $600,000 to modify a barracks complex in Coronado, Calif., that is designed in the shape of a swastika, several news agencies reported. The buildings were erected in 1967, but apparently no one noticed they were swastika-like until someone spotted it on Google Earth. GateHouse News Service

A rash of up to 70 moderate earthquakes were felt on Sunday from Orange County and San Diego County into Arizona as part of a swarm of shakers located at the south end of the Salton Sea near Brawley, Calif.
The aftershocks continued Monday morning throughout San Diego and parts of Arizona.
UPDATE: Monday evening at about 7 p.m., a magnitude 4.2 earthquake hit brawley and was felt in some parts of San Diego.
U.S. & World
According to the USGS, the largest quake was 5.5-magnitude that rattled Brawley, Calif., just before 2 p.m. on Sunday.
A 5.3-magnitude quake centered in Brawley was felt throughout San Diego county at 12:30 p.m. Sunday and a 4.9-magnitude quake followed minutes later, as well as several lower magnitude earthquakes and aftershocks.
The epicenters of the bigger earthquakes were 11 to 12 miles from Imperial, Calif., and 15 to 16 miles from El Centro, Calif., the USGS reported.
According to the USGS, there have been roughly 70 lower magnitude earthquakes in the Brawley area on Sunday alone.
In San Diego, residents across the county reported feeling the quake in places including downtown San Diego, Mission Valley, Santee and Chula Vista. No injuries were reported.
San Diego State University geology expert Pat Abbott told NBC 7 San Diego that Sunday's earthquakes were in the middle of the Brawley Seismic Zone, famous for swarms of quakes. He said Southern California residents should expect aftershocks.
"[The Brawley Seismic Zone] is a broad zone with lots of little faults," explained Abbott.
"This area has clearly activated. We will likely experience swarms of 3, 4 and 5-magnitude [earthquakes] but they are not likely to increase in intensity. Of course, there are no guarantees on this, but history says they likely won't get bigger – that we will experience more of the same or smaller quakes," he added.
As of 1:30 p.m., San Diego Fire Dispatch had no reports of earthquake-related damages or injuries in San Diego county.
The San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station declared a "Notice of Unusual Event" following the earthquakes around 12:30 p.m.
"An earthquake was detected by the station's monitoring system. The station subsequently received reports of earthquakes near the Mexico border. The plant has been off-line since earlier this year, and there is no safety risk for the public or SONGS employees," a statement from the plant read.
The declaration is part of protocol set by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
At around 1:40 p.m. Southern California Edison posted this update to their Twitter feed: "Earthquake felt in [San Onofre power plant] SCE _SONGS control room. Plant is safely shutdown."
At 1:57 p.m., USGS reported another 5.4-magnitude earthquake centered three miles from Brawley, Calif. USGS later upgraded the quake's magnitude to 5.5.
In compliance with regulations, the San Onofre Generating Station issued a second "Notice of Unusual Event" at 2:03 p.m., following the 5.5-magnitude quake.
Southern California Edison posted this update on its Twitter feed following the second Notice:
"Once again, no plant systems harmed at @SCE_Songs and no risk to public safety. Will update when second NOUE has been closed."
As of 4 p.m., Pioneer Memorial Hospital in Brawley, Calif., was beginning to evacuate patients due to the ongoing quakes in the area. About a dozen patients were transferred to hospitals in San Diego and Riverside Counties, but the majority of the hospital was operating with a generator.
Brawley Mayor George Nava said all damage to the area was mostly cosmetic damage to businesses and homes. About 30 mobile home residents were displaced, and Red Cross helped them find shelter.
Five of those displaced took shelter at Imperial Valley College, where the American Red Cross set up a temporary shelter.
Several outages were also reported following the earthquakes in Brawley. Workers were repairing low pressure instances and power outages in the hours following the quakes.
Monday marks the first day of school for Brawley students, but all schools will be closed to assess the damages.

Set Up WildCard DNS
If you have a dedicated IP address, you can create a wildcard A record by setting the Host Name value to an * (asterisk).
When you do so, if the subdomain queried does not exist, the server will respond with the IP address specified in the Zone File Editor as the wildcard.
For example, if someone were to visit http://wildcard.mytestdomain.com, and the subdomain "wildcard" does not exist anywhere on the account, the visitor is redirected to the IP address you specified for the wildcard.
Note:Wildcard DNS queries do not work with our Web Hosting (though they do work with Shared, cPanel, and Plesk). Find out what kind of hosting account you have.
Looks like you're not logged in. If you log in above (under ), we can save you a couple of steps.
- Go to the DNS Management page.
- On the DNS Management page, at the bottom of the Records section, click Add and select A from the drop-down list.

Critics who say our culture is coarsening now have some science to back up their claims.
The Parents Television Council -- who you might remember from a recent dustup with "GQ" over racy photos of "Glee" cast members -- spent many, many hours (128 to be exact) watching prime time network television this fall and comparing the use of expletives to what made it on the air over the same period of time in 2005. The PTC then issued their findings in a report its calling "A Habitat for Profanity." Cute, no?
In total, profanity is up 69.3 percent on TV over the last five years. The word that saw the greatest increase between 2005 and this year was bleeped instances of "f---," which went from 11 to 276, for a 2,409 percent leap.
U.S. & World
"Bastard" and "damn," meanwhile, accounted for the largest declines, going from 27 to 17 and 149 to 141, respectively.
And the least used expletive on television? That honor goes to "douche," which found its way to the small screen only three times in 2005 and another three in 2010.
That last figure would surely have been different if the PTC had included cable comedy shows in its calculations.

A bid to reintroduce the great bustard to the UK has scored another success with four wild chicks hatching in this country so far this year. It is the second year that the internationally endangered birds, which have been reared in captivity and released on Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire, over the past few years, have successfully bred.
The large species, whose males can stand over a metre tall (40 inches) and with a wingspan of up to 2.4m (7.75 ft) had disappeared from the UK by 1832 after being hunted to extinction. The reintroduced birds come from Russia, where eggs are rescued from destruction by farming, and are reared by keepers operating glove puppets, simulating the act of being fed by their mothers, before being flown to the UK at about six weeks old.

Though Phase One of Marvel Studios' film slate came to an end just a few months ago with The Avengers, production on Phase Two is already well underway. The studio is currently in the midst of filming two upcoming sequels at the same time: Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World. The Iron Man production is winding down to a close ahead of that film's May 2013 release date, but filming on Thor: The Dark World is still going strong in London and today the first official synopsis for the Asgardian pic has been revealed.
The logline essentially tells us what we already know: Thor (Chris Hemsworth) must fight against Maleketih (Christopher Eccleston) and his race of Dark Elves, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) is back, the fate of the universe is in the balance, etc. However, the synopsis does tease the film's epic scope and the fact that Thor is forced to "sacrifice everything" in order to save us all (Thor dies?!). Hit the jump to check out the full synopsis, which includes the full cast list. Directed by Alan Taylor, Thor: The Dark World opens on November 8th, 2013.
Here's the synopsis (via Stitch Kingdom):
Marvel's Thor: The Dark World continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself. In the aftermath of Marvel's Thor and Marvel's The Avengers, Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.
Starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Stellan Skarsgård, Idris Elba, Christopher Eccleston, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Kat Dennings, Ray Stevenson, Zachary Levi, Tadanobu Asano and Jaimie Alexander with Rene Russo and Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Thor: The Dark World is directed by Alan Taylor, produced by Kevin Feige, from a story by Don Payne (credit not final) and screenplay by Christopher Yost and Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely (credit not final) and is based on Marvel's classic Super Hero Thor, who first appeared in the comic book Journey into Mystery" #83 in August, 1962.
Thor: The Dark World is presented by Marvel Studios. The executive producers are Louis D'Esposito, Alan Fine, Stan Lee, Victoria Alonso, Craig Kyle and Nigel Gostelow. The film releases November 8, 2013, and is distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.

This Mini Howto is written from a Linux user's perspective installing from a penrive. (Using GPT partitioning).
Use Entire Disk
This will erase anything on the disk before installing GhostBSD.
Select your hard disk & then just follow through the installation script filling in your details.
Definately the easiest way to install for a newbie.
Create A Partition With A Preset Mountpoint
When using this selection you will likely want to just create your / slice/partition. I suggest deleting all preset options & starting from freespace, create a single slice (partition) of sufficient size to hold your /, swap & /usr - note: BSD favours putting /home under the /usr directory. Select your slice (partition) & let the installer setup / & swap for you. Continue filling in details as asked for.
I would create any other slices (partitions) after the system is installed into its own slice (partition).
Custom Installation
When using this option, I still just created the one slice for my / & swap. Create a slice big enough for your /, swap & /usr, (remembering that BSD likes to put /home under /usr). Select your slice & proceed with filling in details as asked for.
Again, I would create any other slices after having installed the system into its own slice.
I know this Mini Howto is not very informative as to how to get a complicated setup installed, it is only meant for a newbie to GhostBSD to get up & running. I hope I have helped someone else to experience GhostBSD on their computer.
