The Etruscan civilization () is the modern name given to a powerful and wealthy civilization of ancient Italy in the area corresponding roughly to Tuscany, western Umbria and northern Lazio. As distinguished by its unique language, this civilization endured from before the time of the earliest Etruscan inscriptions (c. 700 BC) until its assimilation into the Roman Republic, beginning in the late 4th century BC with the Roman-Etruscan Wars. Culture that is identifiably Etruscan developed in Italy after about 800 BC, approximately over the range of the preceding Iron Age Villanovan culture. The latter gave way in the 7th century BC to a culture that was influenced by Ancient Greek culture.
The ancient Romans referred to the Etruscans as the Tusci or Etrusci. Their Roman name is the origin of the terms "Tuscany", which refers to their heartland, and "Etruria", which can refer to their wider region. In Attic Greek, the Etruscans were known as Tyrrhenians (Turrenoi, Turrhenoi, earlier Tursenoi Tursenoi), from which the Romans derived the names Tyrrheni, Tyrrhenia (Etruria), and Mare Tyrrhenum (Tyrrhenian Sea), prompting some to associate them with the Teresh (Sea Peoples). The word may also be related to the Hittite Taruisa. The Etruscans called themselves Rasenna, which was syncopated to Rasna or Rasna. The origins of the Etruscans are mostly lost in prehistory, although Greek historians as early as the 5th century BC repeatedly associated the Tyrrhenians (Turrhenoi/Turrenoi, Tursenoi/Tursenoi) with Pelasgians. Thucydides, Herodotus and Strabo all denote Lemnos as settled by Pelasgians whom Thucydides identifies as "belonging to the Tyrrhenians" (to de pleiston Pelasgikon, ton kai Lemnon pote kai Athenas Tursenon), and although both Strabo and Herodotus agree that Tyrrhenus/Tyrsenos, son of Atys, king of Lydia, led the migration, Strabo specifies that it was the Pelasgians of Lemnos and Imbros who followed Tyrrhenus/Tyrsenos to the Italian Peninsula. The Lemnian-Pelasgian link was further manifested by the discovery of the Lemnos Stele, whose inscriptions were written in a language which shows strong structural resemblances to the language of the Tyrrhenians (Etruscans). Dionysius of Halicarnassus records a Pelasgian migration from Thessaly to the Italian peninsula, noting that "the Pelasgi made themselves masters of some of the lands belonging to the Umbri"; Herodotus describes how the Tyrrheni migrated from Lydia to the lands of the Umbri (Ombrikoi). Strabo as well as the Homeric Hymn to Dionysus make mention of the Tyrrhenians as pirates. Pliny the Elder put the Etruscans in the context of the Rhaetian people to the north and wrote in his Natural History (AD 79): Adjoining these the (Alpine) Noricans are the Raeti and Vindelici. All are divided into a number of states. The Raeti are believed to be people of Tuscan race driven out by the Gauls, their leader was named Raetus.

Hong Kong (CNN) -- The two teen girls were close friends, each looking forward to a summer trip to California to improve their English. Ye Mengyuan excelled at the piano, just as she did in her academics. Wang Linjia enjoyed calligraphy and, according to local media, her work at the school's TV and radio stations. Classmates since junior high, the girls often ate lunch together at school, and few were surprised that they chose to sit together on the 10-hour flight that led to their deaths Saturday. Asiana Airlines Flight 214 had started in Shanghai, China, where the two girls boarded. Then, with a stop in Seoul, South Korea, the flight headed for San Francisco.

Write a question about the following article: Joan of Arc was captured by the Burgundians at the siege of Compiègne on 23 May 1430. The Burgundians transferred her to the English, who organised a trial headed by Pierre Cauchon, Bishop of Beauvais and member of the English Council at Rouen. Joan was convicted and burned at the stake on 30 May 1431. After the death of Joan of Arc, the fortunes of war turned dramatically against the English. Most of Henry's royal advisers were against making peace. Among the factions, the Duke of Bedford wanted to defend Normandy, the Duke of Gloucester was committed to just Calais, whereas Cardinal Beaufort was inclined to peace. Negotiations stalled. It seems that at the congress of Arras, in the summer of 1435, where the duke of Beaufort was mediator, the English were unrealistic in their demands. A few days after the congress ended in September, Philip III, duke of Burgundy, deserted to Charles VII, signing the Treaty of Arras that returned Paris to the King of France. This was a major blow to English sovereignty in France. The Duke of Bedford died on 14 September 1435 and was later replaced by Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York.

By. Graham Smith. PUBLISHED:. 03:09 EST, 25 June 2012. |. UPDATED:. 04:07 EST, 25 June 2012. School truants are being hauled out of bed by police and escorted to classes in a patrol car. Officers are clamping down on truants by calling at the homes of any pupils who fail to turn up to school without a reason. If they are still in bed, police get the parents to wake them up before driving them to lessons. Clampdown: School truants are being hauled out of bed by police and escorted to classes in a patrol car (file picture) The crackdown is the first of its kind and was launched last week in Amesbury, Wiltshire. Inspector Christian Lange, the town’s police chief, said it is already producing results. He said: 'So far, one early morning visit from the police has been enough. 'It’s not good for the parents when their neighbours see us knocking on their doors and taking their kids off to school.' Each morning, police officers are provided with a list of children who have failed to turn up at school without a reasonable explanation. Insp Lange said: 'Of course, if they are off sick or there is a good reason then we don’t intervene. 'If they are still in bed, we get their parents to wake them up, we put them in the car and deliver them straight to school.' Officers are accompanied by an education welfare officer and are working closely in partnership with Wiltshire Council and local schools. Targeting truants: Inspector Christian Lange, the town's police chief, said the scheme is already producing results. It is hoped the crackdown will help reduce antisocial behaviour in the town and ensure that children are getting their education. Insp Lange said: 'The correct place for a child of that age to be is in school. 'If they are not in school they are more likely to get into trouble - it’s not good for anyone to be hanging around, doing nothing all day. 'Truancy is a recurring problem for a small number of children. They are missing out on their education, and if us waking them up and taking them to school is what is needed, then that is what we will do. 'So far we have been very pleased with the results, it is early days but we are taking truancy very seriously. 'It is a real example of a partnership working and getting things done.' Parents have a legal responsibility to ensure their children attend school until they are 16. From next year the school leaving age is due to rise to 17, and to 18 in 2015. Fixed penalty notices and fines can be issued if parents fail to make sure their children go to school along with parenting contracts and parenting orders designed to enforce attendance.

Carly Fiorina to become NRSC vice chair
National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn (R-Texas) announced Tuesday that former Hewlett Packard CEO and 2010 California GOP Senate candidate Carly Fiorina will be the committee’s new vice chair.
Cornyn announced the news at Tuesday’s lunch with fellow GOP senators. In a statement set to be released this afternoon, the Texas Republican says Fiorina should be a major asset — especially when it comes to fundraising.
“I’m pleased to welcome my friend Carly Fiorina to the NRSC team, where her many business and civic achievements will make her an invaluable leader and fundraiser during this critical election cycle,” Cornyn said in the statement, which was obtained by The Fix.
Fiorina, who joins Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) as an NRSC vice chair, was hailed as a top recruit for the national Senate campaign committee in California last cycle, raising nearly $16 million and losing to Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) by 10 points.
Hatch, who has hit the phones hard to raise money for the NRSC in recent years, faces his a potentially tough reelection race this cycle and likely will be otherwise occupied for much of the next year and a half.
Enter Fiorina, whose fundraising prowess is the main reason she’s being brought on (though as an attractive and well-spoken businesswoman, she is also expected to be a surrogate on economic issues).
As the former head of HP, Fiorina has considerable ties to the business community and will be counted on to build the NRSC’s donor base, which has to compete with the Democrats’ success on Wall Street in recent years. (Thank you former Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Chairman Chuck Schumer!)
Republicans are hoping to retake the majority in the Senate this cycle, which would require them to win four Democratic seats if President Obama is reelected and three seats if a GOPer wins the White House.
Democrats responded by pointing to the layoffs that occured at HP on Fiorina’s watch — an attack used against her frequently during the 2010 campaign.
“Apparently, Republicans are not only protecting tax breaks for millionaires; they’re also finding them jobs,” DSCC spokesman Shripal Shah said.
Fiorina was also the chairwoman of a joint fundraising committee between the Republican National Committee and Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) presidential campaign in 2008, and her continued involvement in GOP politics suggest she may not be done with politics after her 2010 loss.

CHAPTER XLVII
How the Bride Was Received, and Who Were Asked to the Wedding
And thus after all did Frank perform his great duty; he did marry money; or rather, as the wedding has not yet taken place, and is, indeed, as yet hardly talked of, we should more properly say that he had engaged himself to marry money. And then, such a quantity of money! The Scatcherd wealth greatly exceeded the Dunstable wealth; so that our hero may be looked on as having performed his duties in a manner deserving the very highest commendation from all classes of the de Courcy connexion.
And he received it. But that was nothing. That _he_ should be fêted by the de Courcys and Greshams, now that he was about to do his duty by his family in so exemplary a manner: that he should be patted on the back, now that he no longer meditated that vile crime which had been so abhorrent to his mother's soul; this was only natural; this is hardly worthy of remark. But there was another to be fêted, another person to be made a personage, another blessed human mortal about to do her duty by the family of Gresham in a manner that deserved, and should receive, Lady Arabella's warmest caresses.
Dear Mary! It was, indeed, not singular that she should be prepared to act so well, seeing that in early youth she had had the advantage of an education in the Greshamsbury nursery; but not on that account was it the less fitting that her virtue should be acknowledged, eulogised, nay, all but worshipped.
1. what school did she go to?
2. is Frank marrying someone poor?
3. who was Frank "feted" by?
4. what was abhorrent to his mother's soul?
5. Is he marry Lady Arabella you think?
6. is Mary her first name?
7. who is richer than Dunstable?
8. is he married yet?
9. what should be done about Mary's virtue?
10. what is Frank's family name?
11. is there a lot of talk about the wedding?
12. why is he being called hero?

In 1634, the Mughal emperor extended his hospitality to the English traders to the region of Bengal, and in 1717 completely waived customs duties for the trade. The company's mainstay businesses were by then cotton, silk, indigo dye, saltpetre, and tea. The Dutch were aggressive competitors and had meanwhile expanded their monopoly of the spice trade in the Malaccan straits by ousting the Portuguese in 1640–41. With reduced Portuguese and Spanish influence in the region, the EIC and Dutch East India Company (VOC) entered a period of intense competition, resulting in the Anglo-Dutch Wars of the 17th and 18th centuries.
If it is possible to answer this question, answer it for me (else, reply "unanswerable"): what year did the Mughal emperor completely wave customs duities?

Myanmar:
The elections of 2010 resulted in a victory for the military-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party. Various foreign observers questioned the fairness of the elections. One criticism of the election was that only government sanctioned political parties were allowed to contest in it and the popular National League for Democracy was declared illegal. However, immediately following the elections, the government ended the house arrest of the democracy advocate and leader of the National League for Democracy, Aung San Suu Kyi, and her ability to move freely around the country is considered an important test of the military's movement toward more openness. After unexpected reforms in 2011, NLD senior leaders have decided to register as a political party and to field candidates in future by-elections.
Please answer a question about this article. If the question is unanswerable, say "unanswerable". What was the Burmese official decision concerning the legitimacy of National League for Democracy in 2010 ?

Chaos erupted after the first student was shot. Children ran screaming and crying. Almost everyone on the playground sprinted away from the boy who had just fired a pistol at his schoolmate. Not Michael Landsberry. The 45-year-old math teacher calmly walked toward the gunman as he crossed the basketball court. Landsberry raised his hands to show he was no threat. He tried to reason with the boy. A student who witnessed the shooting said Landsberry was trying to make the shooter put his weapon down. He did not. "He took the shot right then and there," the witness said. The entire tragedy unfolded in a mere three minutes. A popular teacher, coach and member of the Nevada Air National Guard lay dead. His students and fellow guardsmen were stunned by his devastating death, but no one was surprised by how, directly in the face of danger, he tried to solve the crisis. "That was the kind of person that Michael was," his brother, Reggie Landsberry, said. "He was the kind of person that if somebody needed help he would be there." Col. Jeffrey Burkett, commander of the Nevada Air Guard's 152nd Airlift Wing, said he liked to think that Michael Landsberry -- who had been deployed once to a busy base in Afghanistan -- was using his military training when he confronted the shooter. "He was trying to save the children. He was trying to save that child," Burkett said. That child, the 12-year-old shooter, later turned the 9 mm pistol on himself. His identity has not been released. Landsberry couldn't save the shooter or himself, but he did delay the gunman from going immediately after more victims. "Mr. Landsberry's heroic actions, by stepping toward the shooter, allowed time for other students in the playground area to flee," Washoe County School District Police Chief Mike Mieras said. Beloved teacher slain by 'nice kid' As news of the shooting was reported on Twitter, students and former students tweeted about Mr. Landsberry, who taught eighth-grade math. He can't be dead, they wrote to each other. He's strong, he'll make it, one said. Soon the ugly realization came that he was gone. He leaves a wife and two stepdaughters. His wife, Sharon, posted a note on Facebook, thanking her friends for their condolences. "He was My Everything, My World!! He has touched so many lives and was an incredible Man!!," she wrote Monday night. Landsberry, who joined the Marines after he graduated from high school in Reno in 1986, had an associate's degree in law enforcement and a bachelor's degree in education, according to a statement from the Guard. He began teaching in 2001, the same year he enlisted in the Guard, the statement said. He worked at two other schools before moving to Sparks Middle School in 2006. In addition to being a math teacher he also coached basketball, cross country, track and volleyball, as well as girls soccer at Sparks High School, the Guard said. Reggie Landsberry said caring for others was something he and his brother learned from their father, who served in the Marines for 22 years. Michael Landsberry, also a veteran of the Corps, was "just a good all-around individual," his brother said. The colonel said Landsberry "was close to a lot of people out here on the base." A Facebook memorial page posted in Landsberry's honor had more than 16,100 likes on Tuesday afternoon. Among the comments:. "Once a hero, always a hero! RIP." "God bless you for the greatest act of courage and love." "From one Air Force vet to a USMC vet, I salute you. Rest in peace, brother." Thousands more honored the slain teacher on a "Rest Easy Mr. Landsberry" page. On a website for his students, "Mr. Landsberry's Math Class," the slain teacher had posted pictures of himself hiking in the wilderness and standing with a weapon beside an armored vehicle. "One of my goals is to earn your respect while you earn mine," he wrote in a message to students. "I believe that with mutual respect that the classroom environment will run smoothly." Sparks Mayor Geno Martini called the loss of Landsberry "devastating." "It's very unfortunate that (the life of) someone like that, who protected our country over there and came back alive ... had to be taken at his work, at a school," Martini said. Landsberry attained the rank of corporal and served as a field wireman, Marine spokeswoman Maj. Shawn Haney said. The Guard said he was a master sergeant, who was also once deployed to Kuwait. "A lot of lives saved by this Marine. May he guard the gates of heaven. Semper Fi, Sir," one commenter wrote on Facebook, referencing the "Always Faithful" motto of the Marines.

Article: Everyone engages in negative self-talk at some point or another. While some people may find it motivating, studies show that it actually contributes to stress, depression, and poor coping skills. Learning how to identify negative self-talk can help you catch yourself when you're thinking poorly of yourself, which can make it easier to then consciously engage in a more positive way of thinking. Some common forms of negative self-talk include: Filtering - this behavioral problem involves ignoring or "filtering out" all the positive aspects of your life or a given situation, and instead focusing on only the negative aspects. An example might be overlooking everything you accomplished at work and instead focusing on the one problem you were unable to successfully resolve. Personalizing - this entails blaming yourself for everything that happens. It can also involve interpreting any situational criticism as something that you are or should be blamed for. An example of this might involve hearing that your friends can't make it to a party and assuming that they canceled their plans to avoid seeing you. Catastrophizing - this means automatically preparing for or expecting the worst possible scenario. An example of this might be assuming that the rest of your day will go wrong because of one minor setback early in your day. Polarizing - this involves seeing things, people, and situations as always good or always bad. An example might be assuming that because you had an off day at work, you are automatically a bad employee. . Thinking positively does not mean that you ignore the bad or unpleasant things in life. It simply means that you approach every situation in life, both good and bad, with a positive outlook and a productive mindset. You can work on engaging in positive thinking in little ways every day. To start thinking more positively, try to: identify the things you think negatively about, and recognize why evaluate your thoughts and feelings throughout the day seek humor in everyday situations and allow yourself to smile or laugh even when you're upset live a healthy lifestyle spend time with positive people (and avoid negative people as much as possible) be gentle with yourself - a good rule for yourself is to avoid thinking things about yourself that you would not say to another person try to find the positive aspects of negative situations envision a more positive future for yourself, and determine what you'll need to do to make that vision a reality Mindfulness involves developing an awareness of where you are, what you are doing, and what you are sensing/feeling in the present moment. Practicing mindfulness can reduce stress, manage anxiety and depression, and improve your mood. Focus on your breathing. Become aware of the physical sensation of each breath passing through your nostrils, the rising and falling of your abdomen, and the feeling of your legs and feet on the chair or floor. Meditate. Activities that promote meditation, including an extended peaceful prayer, yoga, Tai Chi, or spiritual reflection, actually change an area of your brain called the insula, which is involved in your experience of empathy/understanding others. Developing your empathy muscles (helping others) will help you lead a happier life. Try to engage your senses in everything you do. When you eat, look at your food for a moment and smell it. You may want to consider feeling it with your hands to experience the tactile sensation of your food. Try to anticipate what it will taste like, and chew slowly to savor the experience. What you eat can have a huge impact on how you feel. It's not enough to avoid bad foods. You should also be getting vitamins and nutrients from all of the major food groups, and avoiding overeating or under-eating. Most adults need 1.5 to 2 cups of fresh fruit or 100% fruit juice every day. Adults should eat between 2.5 and 3 cups of fresh vegetables every day. Choose whole grains instead of refined grains. Adults should eat six to eight ounces of whole grains every day, depending on your age, gender, and activity level. Eat a variety of protein foods every day. Adults typically need between 5 and 6.5 ounces of lean protein, including seafood, poultry/eggs, tofu, beans, nuts, and seeds. Choose low-fat or fat-free dairy products, including milk, yogurt, cheese, or soymilk. Adults typically need three cups of dairy every day. Drink enough water each day. General guidelines for living in a temperate climate suggest that men should drink three liters of water each day, and women should drink 2.2 liters. If you live in a hot environment, however, or if you live a very active lifestyle (especially if you exercise regularly), you should increase your water intake to account for the water lost in sweat. You cannot avoid stressful situations, but you can find ways to relieve your stress. You can use relaxation techniques, such as meditation, visualization, tai chi, yoga, and deep breathing. Practice deep breathing by breathing in and out from your diaphragm (below the ribcage), instead of taking shallow breaths from your chest. Try to develop a pattern of deep breathing, like counting to five on a slow inhalation, holding your breath for five seconds, and exhaling slowly for five seconds. Practice meditation by sitting in a comfortable position away from anything that might distract you. Use deep breathing and try to focus only on your breath, letting go of any thoughts that pass through your mind without judging them or engaging with them. Use visualization to calm your mind and put yourself in a better mood. Combine deep breathing with an imagined image of something calming, such as a relaxing place or situation. In addition to eating a healthy diet, it's important to live a healthy and active lifestyle. How well you care for your body in your early and middle years can have a big impact on your health later in life. Exercise regularly. Experts recommend getting at least 150 minutes each week of moderate aerobic activity, or at least 75 minutes per week of strenuous aerobic activity. Try to incorporate strength-training exercises (like lifting weights or using weight resistance) at least twice each week for a well-rounded workout. Avoid smoking, and quit if you are currently a smoker. You can use smoking cessation products like nicotine gum or patches, and you may find it helpful to attend a support group or recruit the help of your friends/family. Practice safe sex by always using condoms and engaging in monogamous, exclusive relationships.

Select the correct sentiment of the following review: I think I agree that a lot of the comments here must be fake. Even if the movie is not necessarily bad its definitely below average. "Dark Remains" is basically a Ghost Movie with a premise of your own ghosts and bad emotions haunting you. The movie starts off already with 2 stories loosely inter-webbed which even later are not tied together. A couple loses its child which is found slashed in its bed. They move to a country house to flee their past and guess what... the house is haunted, kind of. From here on Dark Remains starts off very slow with some scary moments indeed (The first ghost appearances are nice and the flashlight sequence also worked very good). OK, then... Woman sees ghost of daughter, other ghosts of people died in accidents or suicides appear, man tries to solve secret of houses past, woman gets depressed, strange neighbors appear. Its pretty much all been there, but the premise of it being their own emotions is nice, so you wait for the twist. There is no twist, you are just confused by a haunted house history story, the strange neighbor, a totally pointless creepy prison and the dead daughter thrown together with a photo-idea reminding me a lot of "The shutter". The end is ridiculous because when you start and end a movie this slow and with piano music its pretty lame to include some hoards of ghosts at once which look like a zombie flick, of course just to return to slow pacing and piano music.
To make it short... Dark Remains could have been a nice scary ghost story if the script was not trying to go everywhere and arriving nowhere.Too many stories mushed together which just don't make any sense and contradict in the basic atmosphere of the movie. And beside... please never use abandoned prisons again. Its so worn off and in this case it even makes no sense at all. "Hey, there is this creepy prison uphill, lets shoot there". I guess a lot of ingredients in Dark Remains were thrown in the mix like this.

Summarize this article in one sentence.
Media playback is not supported on this device
England lost 1-0 to Germany in Dortmund on Wednesday, but some away supporters booed the German national anthem and sang chants referencing World War Two.
Tottenham player Dier said he did not hear the chants during the friendly defeat, but called for the home crowd at Wembley to act "in the right way".
"In general, the fans are fantastic with us wherever we go," said Dier.
"The support they give us is amazing, but we ask it is done in the right way."
Football Association chairman Greg Dyke has described the conduct of a section of England fans in Germany as "inappropriate, disrespectful and disappointing".
It is understood the FA is trying to gather footage of the behaviour. If found to be involved, supporters could be banned from attending games.
The England Supporters Travel Club has written to members warning anyone involved in anti-social, xenophobic or disrespectful behaviour in Germany will have their membership withdrawn.
Dier also referenced the Westminster attack in central London on Wednesday and said England's players will "do everything" to honour those who died.
There is set to be a minute's silence and a pre-match wreath-laying ceremony at Wembley, while the stadium's arch will be lit up in red and white and England will wear black armbands.
"Of course, with the dreadful stuff that's happened, we hope fans are respectful of that and we'll respect everything in the right way," added Dier, 23.
Fans can expect to see armed police as they make their way to the ground as part of the Metropolitan Police's increased security presence.
England go into Sunday's game unbeaten in qualifying and are top of Group F on 10 points.
But Dier, who played the first half of England's European Championship last-16 defeat by minnows Iceland in June, said the Three Lions, now managed by Gareth Southgate, will not take Lithuania lightly.
"It's a painful reminder and it's a good lesson," he said. "We can look back on that game and what we didn't do, and in games like the one on Sunday try to do what we didn't.
"It's going to be a tough game. In all internationals now there's no really easy games. Every team sets up to try to stop us, especially here at Wembley. It's key we play with intensity.
"We need to be aggressive with the ball, move it quickly, and hopefully create a lot of chances and make it exciting for the fans."
Dier, who has played in both midfield and defence for club and country, also admitted he harbours ambitions of one day captaining England.
"It's an ambition of mine. I'd love to one day be able to do that," said the former Sporting Lisbon player.
"That's something the manager decides and I'm sure he'll pick who he thinks is best.
"I've always had qualities that a captain may have and I think I can do that job."

In the second quarter, the Panthers continued to struggle as Bironas nailed a 53-yard field goal for the only score of the period. After a scoreless third quarter, Tennessee pulled away with RB LenDale White getting a 1-yard TD run. Carolina would avoid a shutout as QB David Carr completed an 18-yard TD pass to WR Drew Carter.

– Ted Cruz showed up Wednesday for a CNN town hall—or what Gawker frames as "another glimpse into the waking hell that is Heidi Cruz’s daily life"—with his wife and two young daughters in tow, and Heidi offered up a personal, if bizarre, nugget of life with the GOP presidential candidate. She dished on what her husband did right after they got back from their honeymoon: bought 100 cans of Campbell's Chunky soup. "I never bought 100 of anything," she told moderator Anderson Cooper. "This was shocking to me, so we had a tough conversation about it. I said, "You don't buy 100 of anything, much less canned soup. We can't do this." Heidi said that while Ted was sleeping, she brought all 100 cans back to the store, but after a panicked phone call to her mother "just to make sure I'd done the right thing as a newlywed," she realized the soup should stay. As the New York Daily News notes, that wasn't the only odd revelation about Cruz that emerged during the town hall. The man who once fought against masturbation also relayed how he'd once watched porn with Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. And in what may be one of the more scandalous tidbits to arise in Election 2016, Cruz's daughter, Caroline, who just turned 8, revealed she's got tape of her dad dolled up in granny panties and a pink feather boa at a father-daughter picnic. (Ted also has a Plants vs. Zombies obsession.)

Ew, Dad! That’s gross!
With his two young daughters just feet away from him, Republican presidential contender Ted Cruz told the bizarre story of how he watched porn with Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor.
THE ONE TIME TED CRUZ TRIED TO BAN SEX TOYS IN TEXAS
The Texas senator, his wife Heidi and their daughters — 8-year-old Caroline and 5-year-old Catherine — all took the stage at a CNN town hall Wednesday night, which also featured a strange story about Cruz's love of canned soup.
Before discussing his relationship with his wife and Caroline’s upcoming birthday party, Cruz discussed how he once had to watch porn as part of his duties as a law clerk for the Supreme Court, a strange tale he first recounted in his 2015 memoir.

“The chapter begins with me watching pornography on the Internet with Sandra Day O’Connor, which was a bit of a bizarre experience,” he told Anderson Cooper, adding that the court librarians prepared a lesson for the justices and their clerks to demonstrate how the abundance of Internet porn ahead of a case considering the regulation of such graphic material.

The librarians switched off Internet filters and quickly found hardcore videos by searching the term “cantaloupe,” he said.
“And Justice O’Connor — I still remember — she leaned forward, and she squinted, and she said, �?Oh, my!’” Cruz continued.
New York Daily News front pages on the presidential election
Little Caroline and Catherine were seated in the first row of the audience as their dad told the cringe-worthy story.
The retelling wasn’t the only awkward moment: Cruz’s wife and daughters had more strange stories to share about the family patriarch.
Heidi Cruz told the audience how her husband perplexingly bought 100 cans of soup after they returned from their honeymoon because he was afraid she wouldn’t cook.
“I was completely shocked to see that he arrived back at our apartment with literally 100 cans of Campbell’s Chunky soup,” she said. “We had a tough conversation about it. I said, �?You don’t buy 100 of anything, much less canned soup. We can’t do this. I’ll be making things.’ He said, �?No, I know you. You won’t be making things.’”

The newlywed wife promptly returned the stockpile of stews and called her mother to gab about her husband’s strange shopping spree — but her mom told her she should have let Cruz keep his coup.

“So when Ted opened the pantry, I had to quickly tell him that I would go back and buy those cans again,” she added.
Cruz’s daughters also had some not-so-flattering stories about their dad.

Caroline — who turned 8 on Thursday — said she has a video of her dad in a pink feather boa and granny panties. The Texas dad put on the goofy getup as part of a dress up game at a father-daughter picnic, she said.
“It was on a videotape the whole time,” the oldest Cruz daughter said. “And that was a class video that they’re sending out to all the parents.”
Caroline also talked about her upcoming birthday party — a Build-a-Bear bash featuring a chocolate cake — and her love for Taylor Swift. Younger Catherine was mostly silent as she sat on her mom’s lap.

Ted Cruz once argued that Americans have no constitutional right to bear dildos, that the government has a legitimate interest in discouraging “autonomous sex,” and that allowing the sale of sex toys is the first step on the road to legal incest.
This history comes courtesy of Mother Jones’s David Corn, who went searching for skeletons in Cruz’s closet and stumbled across a bunch of dildo baggage instead. On Wednesday, the magazine published an exposé detailing Cruz’s defense of a ban on sex-toy sales while serving as the Texas solicitor general. Back in 2004, several adult-plaything providers challenged a Texas law that banned the sale and promotion of "obscene devices." At the time, only three other states had similar laws on the books. The plaintiffs founded their challenge on the Fourteenth Amendment’s right to privacy, arguing, among other things, that some couples are unable to engage in intercourse without the aid of sex toys, or else require them to avoid passing along contagious diseases such as HIV. A federal judge turned the company down, it appealed, and in 2007 it fell to Cruz’s legal team to keep dildos from undermining the fabric of Western civilization.
In a 76-page brief calling on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to stand with the lower court, Cruz’s office wrote that “any alleged right associated with obscene devices” is not “deeply rooted in the Nation’s history and traditions.” While Cruz acknowledged that, after Lawrence v. Texas overturned sodomy laws, the government could not ban the “private use of obscene devices,” it could ban their sale so as to uphold “public morals.” What’s more, while the government can’t forbid citizens from masturbating, it has a legitimate interest in “discouraging … autonomous sex.” Cruz’s team went on to declare, “There is no substantive-due-process right to stimulate one’s genitals for non-medical purposes unrelated to procreation or outside of an interpersonal relationship.”
Ted Cruz thinks people don't have a right to "stimulate their genitals." I was his college roommate. This would be a new belief of his. — Craig Mazin (@clmazin) April 13, 2016
The appeals court disagreed in a 2–1 decision, which held that the government has no business encroaching on Americans’ most private of affairs. But Cruz and Texas attorney general Greg Abbott (who is now the state’s governor) battled on, filing a brief requesting a hearing before the full court of appeals, claiming the three-judge panel had overstepped the precedent set by Lawrence. Cruz’s office argued that the prior ruling would give all manner of deviants grounds to claim that “engaging in consensual adult incest or bigamy” must be legal as they have a right to “enhance their sexual experiences.” They lost the motion and ultimately chose not to bring the matter to the Supreme Court.
Cruz has never discussed his views on dildo commerce during the 2016 campaign, and it’s unlikely that many of his supporters know his history on such matters. It’s difficult to gauge the effect this news will have on Cruz’s standing with the electorate, as exit polls neglected to ask Republican primarygoers about their affinity for sexual devices. Regardless, the American people deserve to know whether Cruz still holds such an expansive view of the government’s right to regulate public morality. There are undoubtedly no small number of patriots in this country who would tell President Cruz’s jackbooted thugs, “I’ll give you my dildo when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.” ||||| [There was a video here]
Thanks to CNN’s town hall, America just got another glimpse into the waking hell that is Heidi Cruz’s daily life. Tonight’s entry into the Heidi Cruz catalogue of the macabre: A newlywed Ted Cruz celebrates by buying 100 cans of Campbell’s Chunky soup.
The story defies any logical, human explanation, so I’ll let Heidi do the talking:
When I married Ted, we got back from our honeymoon, and he went off to the store and came home by himself. And I was completely shocked to see that he arrived back at our apartment with literally 100 cans of Campbell’s Chunky soup. I never bought 100 of anything. This was shocking to me, so we had a tough conversation about it. I said, “You don’t buy 100 of anything, much less canned soup. We can’t do this. I’ll be making things.” He said, “No, I know you. you won’t be making things.” So the next morning, it was a weekend morning, I loaded up our car before he woke up and returned every single can. And when I got home, I called my mother just to make sure I’d done the right thing as a newlywed. And she emphatically disagreed with me. And so when Ted opened the pantry, I had to quickly tell him that I would go back and buy those cans again.
Questions abound.
First and foremost—why? What did this “tough conversation” consist of? Did Heidi really go back to the store to re-buy 100 cans of soup? Did she re-buy the soup in the same variety and quantity? How long does it take Ted to finish 100 cans of soup? Heidi, are you okay? You know you can tell us if you’re not okay? Also—why?
We’ve reached out to Campbell’s and also deep within ourselves for comment, and will update if and when we hear back.
Until then, if you have any information at all about what Ted Cruz did with 100 cans of Campbell’s Chunky™ soup, please do let us know. |||||

In the ancient Arabic story called Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, the young hero Ali Baba said "Open Sesame" and a door to hidden treasures was opened to him.The old story had a special meaning for Ma Yun.He drew inspiration from _ for Alibaba.com - Chinese largest e-commerce website. In 1995, Ma Yun was working for a US trading company when he was introduced to the Internet."I know nothing about computers and has never touched a keyboard," he said.He searched the word "beer" and nothing came up about Chinese products. Ma Yun had an idea.Why not build a large Internet market to connect customers with companies from all over the world? They could do business online in that way.That was how Alibaba began.His company grew quickly.But that didn't mean everything went smoothly.In 2000, many Internet companies failed including Alibaba.But later, he was successful because he managed to attract investment into his company."You should stick to your dream," he said."Everyone thought I was daydreaming when I started.But the most important thing is that we believe in our dream from past to today and tomorrow.Of course we made many mistakes, but we never give up." Ma Yun is also smart.For him, success in business is like trying to catch a rabbit.If there are nine rabbits, focus on catching one - don't try to catch them all," he said."Change your ways if you need to, but don't change the rabbit.Get one first, put it in your pocket and then catch the others."

Article:
Image caption Healthy sperm manufacture needs the Katnal1 gene
It may be possible to develop a new male contraceptive pill after researchers in Edinburgh identified a gene critical for the production of healthy sperm.
Experiments in mice found that the gene, Katnal1, was vital for the final stages of making sperm.
The authors of a study in PLos Genetics said a drug which interrupts Katnal1 could be a reversible contraceptive.
A fertility expert said there was "certainly a need" for such a drug.
Contraception in men is largely down to condoms or a vasectomy.
Infertility search
Researchers at the Centre for Reproductive Health at the University of Edinburgh were investigating the causes of male infertility.
They randomly altered the genetic code of mice to see which became infertile. They then traced the mutations which led to infertility, which led them to Katnal1.
If we can find a way to target this gene in the testes, we could potentially develop a non-hormonal contraceptive Dr Lee Smith, University of Edinburgh
It contains the blueprints for a protein which is important in cells which support the development of sperm. Without the protein, sperm do not fully form and the body disposes of them.
Scientists hope they will be able to perform a similar trick in humans to stop sperm developing, without causing lasting damage.
One of the researchers Dr Lee Smith said: "If we can find a way to target this gene in the testes, we could potentially develop a non-hormonal contraceptive.
"The important thing is that the effects of such a drug would be reversible because Katnal1 only affects sperm cells in the later stages of development, so it would not hinder the early stages of sperm production and the overall ability to produce sperm.
He said it would be "relatively difficult" to do as the protein lives inside cells, however, he said there was "potential" to find something else that protein worked with, which might be an easier target.
'Holy Grail'
Dr Allan Pacey, senior lecturer in andrology at the University of Sheffield, said there was "certainly a need" for a non-hormonal contraceptive for men and that this had been a "Holy Grail" of research for many years.
He added: "The key in developing a non-hormonal contraceptive for men is that the molecular target needs to be very specific for either sperm or other cells in the testicle which are involved in sperm production.
"If they are not, then such a contraceptive could have unwanted side effects on other cells and tissues in the body and may even be dangerous.
"The gene described by the research group in Edinburgh sounds like an exciting new possible target for a new male contraceptive, but it may also shed light on why some men are sub-fertile and why their sperm does not work properly." ||||| Researchers have found the gene, Katnal 1, controls the final stages of sperm development and could result in temporary infertility if blocked.
The discovery could lead to the development of medicine to interrupt the production of fertile sperm without causing permanent damage, scientists believe.
The study, at the Centre for Reproductive Health at the University of Edinburgh, is thought to make the successful production of a contraceptive pill for men more likely in the near future.
Dr Lee Smith, from the university, said if the gene was blocked the testes would continue to produce sperm, only releasing immature, ineffective sperm which had not developed into the final stages.
He told the BBC: "If we can find a way to target this gene in the testes, we could potentially develop a non-hormonal contraceptive.
"The important thing is that the effects of such a drug would be reversible because Katnal1 only affects sperm cells in the later stages of development, so it would not hinder the early stages of sperm production and the overall ability to produce sperm.”
If you are a woman, would you trust a man to take the male contraceptive pill?
He added it would be "relatively difficult" to do as the protein lives inside cells, but there was "potential" to find another substance that protein worked with as an easier target.
The research, funded by the Medical Research Council, was based on altering the genetic code of mice to discover mutations which led to infertility.
Dr Allan Pacey, senior lecturer in andrology at the University of Sheffield, told the BBC there was "certainly a need" for a non-hormonal contraceptive for men and that this had been a "Holy Grail" of research for many years.
"The gene described by the research group in Edinburgh sounds like an exciting new possible target for a new male contraceptive, but it may also shed light on why some men are sub-fertile and why their sperm does not work properly,” he said. |||||
What is a summary?
|
– Scientists could be a big step closer to inventing a birth control pill for men. New research at the University of Edinburgh has pinpointed a gene called Katnal 1 that manages the final stages of sperm development, reports the Daily Telegraph. In theory, the work could lead to a new drug that would block the gene. "The important thing is that the effects of such a drug would be reversible because Katnal 1 only affects sperm cells in the later stages of development, so it would not hinder the early stages of sperm production and the overall ability to produce sperm," a researcher tells the BBC. A professor also noted that the genetic research from the study could "shed light on why some men are sub-fertile and why their sperm does not work properly."

Please briefly summarize this news article:
Nail-biter: Joey Logano overcomes late-race caution to win at Texas
Updated APR 07, 2014 6:26p ET
Joey Logano passed Jeff Gordon on the last lap to become the seventh different winner in as many NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races this season as he captured the rain-delayed Duck Commander 500 at Texas Motor Speedway Monday.
Logano and his Team Penske teammate Brad Keselowski were clearly the class of the field, as they dominated the action at the 1.5-mile track, leading 193 of 340 laps. But a late-race green-white-checkered set up a nail-biting finish, with Logano having to pass the four-time champion for the victory. Kyle Busch finished third, followed by Brian Vickers and rookie Kyle Larson.
The victory was Logano's fourth in 190 career starts and his second since joining Roger Penske's outfit prior to the start of the 2013 season. Logano took the lead on Lap 227 and from there on was out front for all but a handful of laps , winning for the first time since Michigan last August. Texas is clearly a track Logano likes. He finished fifth in this race a year ago and third here last November.
What appeared to be an easy victory, though, turned out to be high drama thanks to Kurt Busch's exploding rear tire, which brought out the day's final caution. "Had a good enough restart, we had a good enough run on the 24 (Gordon) to pass him at the end, but man, awesome," said Logano of his race-winning move.
Logano said crew chief Todd Gordon made the right calls to adjust his car as the long race went on and the weather changed from cold and gray to warm and sunny, and that's when the No. 22 Penske Ford came alive.
"I felt like we had a car that could win this thing today," said Logano. "And in the beginning of the race, we didn't. And then Todd and the guys made good adjustments, good stops all day."
Runner-up Gordon gambled on a two-tire pit stop on the final caution, which gave him the lead briefly, but he couldn't hold off the onrushing Logano, who had four fresh Goodyears. "We got a pretty good restart," said Gordon, who took over the points lead for the first time since May 25, 2009. "Joey was right on me and I was pretty loose through (Turns) 1 and 2, and I wish I would have gone a little bit higher down in 3 and 4, but he got that run off of 4."
And that was all she wrote.
Third-place finisher Busch said the two Penske Fords were in a class of their own. "Man, the Penske guys were just super fast," Busch said. "They came out of nowhere."
The race, delayed a full day by rain, got off to a bizarre start. The first 10 laps were run under green and yellow flags simultaneously and during that period second-qualifier Keselowski got too close to one of the jet dryers and it popped the back of his hood up, necessitating three pit stops to tape the hood down.
Just three laps after the race went fully green, series points leader Dale Earnhardt Jr. veered left into the infield grass on the frontstretch, and his splitter caught the soft, wet turf, which tore up the front of his Hendrick Motorsports No. 88 Chevrolet and sent him across the track and hard into the outside wall.
His teammate, Jimmie Johnson also suffered serious damage to the nose and windshield of his car in the incident. Johnson was right behind Earnhardt when the crash happened and collected a lot of the mud and dirt Earnhardt's car churned up.
The race restarted on Lap 25, and four laps later Kevin Harvick, who was in second place and challenging leader Tony Stewart, suddenly slowed, smoke coming from his Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet as his engine failed.
Stewart led all but two of the first 76 laps before Keselowski put his Ford into the lead.
Denny Hamlin benefitted from a fast green-flag pit stop to take over second place near the 100-lap mark and on Lap 122, he blew past Keselowski on the backstretch to assume the point.
But on Lap 142, Hamlin was too fast exiting pit road and had to serve a pit-road speeding penalty, handing the lead to teammate Kyle Busch.
Eleven laps later, Gordon went underneath Busch to move out front.
After a caution for Kurt Busch grazing the wall, Keselowski used the high line to pass Gordon and take the lead again on Lap 185.
Following another caution for another Kurt Busch spin, the race restarted on Lap 227, Logano using the outside lane to take his first lead of the day, relegating Keselowski to second ahead of Gordon.
Logano pulled out a lead of almost six seconds at one point, but with two laps to go, Kurt Busch blew a right-rear tire to bring out a caution, which sent the field down pit road.
Gordon and Vickers took two tires each under caution, while the Penske Fords took four tires, with Logano coming out third. But Keselowski got caught speeding on pit road, costing him a shot at victory.
Gordon led the restart, but Logano went underneath him on the last lap to win.
Summary:
|
The Team Penske driver looked to have the Duck Commander 500 in the bag, but a late-race caution brought the field to pit road and set up a green-white-checkered restart. Despite it all, Logano overcame to beat Jeff Gordon and win.

turned out to be another failed attempt by the laughable sci-fi channel. i am not sure who wrote the script, and interpreted the poem, but i am sure it was by some 17 year old teen who thought it would be awesome to a have a scoped crossbow in the movie. AAAAAAAH! when i saw that part, I lost all hope. Then...they set off for heorot in a what looks to be the ship that Christopher Columbus sailed in! when they reach Heorot, (which is supposed to be a Norse mead hall) the sci-fi group of idiots decided to make heorot look like a big stone castle. when i saw that part.. i wanted to scream. i really wanted this movie to be good, but sci-fi has yet to produce a good movie, so i don't know why i got my hopes up. Oh..and Grendel and his mother, are stupid also. (this comment is off topic about "Grendel")If anyone from the sci-fi channel is reading this..here is some good advice. NOT EVERY MOVIE YOU MAKE HAS TO BE ABOUT A BIG MONSTER THAT CAN RIP PEOPLE IN HALF, THATS NOT WHAT SCIENCE FICTION IS ABOUT! AND ALSO, STOP CASTING LOW-GRADE ACTORS LIKE STEPHEN BALDWIN TO BE IN YOUR FILMS! ITS NOT HELPING THE MOVIE, BUT MAKING IT WORSE!!!

Here is a news article: Just so you know, x86 machine-code is now a "high-level" language. What instructions say, and what they do, are very different thi... ||||| A new security vulnerability known as the Bash or Shellshock bug could spell disaster for major digital companies, small-scale Web hosts and even Internet-connected devices.
The quarter-century-old security flaw allows malicious code execution within the bash shell (commonly accessed through Command Prompt on PC or Mac's Terminal application) to take over an operating system and access confidential information.
A post from open-source software company Red Hat warned that "it is common for a lot of programs to run Bash shell in the background," and the bug is "triggered" when extra code is added within the lines of Bash code.
Security expert Robert Graham has warned that the Bash bug is bigger than Heartbleed because "the bug interacts with other software in unexpected ways" and because an "enormous percentage" of software interacts with the shell.
"We'll never be able to catalogue all the software out there that is vulnerable to the Bash bug," Graham said. "While the known systems (like your Web server) are patched, unknown systems remain unpatched. We see that with the Heartbleed bug: six months later, hundreds of thousands of systems remain vulnerable."
Ars Technica reports that the vulnerability could affect Unix and Linux devices, as well as hardware running Max OS X. According to Ars, a test on Mac OS X Mavericks (version 10.9.4) showed that it has "a vulnerable version of Bash".
I think I was wrong saying #shellshock was as big as #heartbleed. It's bigger. — Robert Graham (@ErrataRob) September 25, 2014
Graham warned that the Bash bug was also particularly dangerous for connected Internet-of-things devices because their software is built using Bash scripts, which are "less likely to be patched...[and] more likely to expose the vulnerability to the outside world". Similarly, Graham said the bug has existed for a "long, long time" meaning a great number of older devices will be vulnerable.
"The number of systems needing to be patched, but which won't be, is much larger than Heartbleed," he said.
The Heartbleed bug, the major security vulnerability revealed in April, was introduced into OpenSSL more than two years ago, allowing random bits of memory to be retrieved from impacted servers. Security researcher Bruce Schneier called the flaw "catastrophic".
"On the scale of 1 to 10, this is an 11," he said, estimating that half a million websites were vulnerable.
Patching the shell
Tod Beardsley, an engineering manager at security firm Rapid7, warned that even though the vulnerability's complexity was low, the wide range of devices affected require that system administrators apply patches immediately.
"This vulnerability is potentially a very big deal," Beardsley told CNET. "It's rated a 10 for severity, meaning it has maximum impact, and 'low' for complexity of exploitation -- meaning it's pretty easy for attackers to use it.
"The affected software, Bash, is widely used so attackers can use this vulnerability to remotely execute a huge variety of devices and Web servers. Using this vulnerability, attackers can potentially take over the operating system, access confidential information, make changes etc. Anybody with systems using bash needs to deploy the patch immediately."
Attackers can potentially take over the operating system, access confidential information, make changes. Tod Beardsley
After conducting a scan of the Internet to test for the vulnerability, Graham reported that the bug "can easily worm past firewalls and infect lots of systems" which he says would be "'game over' for large networks". Similar to Beardsley, Graham said the problem needed immediate attention.
"Scan your network for things like Telnet, FTP, and old versions of Apache (masscan is extremely useful for this). Anything that responds is probably an old device needing a Bash patch. And, since most of them can't be patched, you are likely screwed."
Updated at 5:22 p.m. AEST to include initial background on the Bash bug. ||||| With a bug as dangerous as the “shellshock” security vulnerability discovered yesterday, it takes less than 24 hours to go from proof-of-concept to pandemic.
As of Thursday, multiple attacks were already taking advantage of that vulnerability, a long-standing but undiscovered bug in the Linux and Mac tool Bash that makes it possible for hackers to trick Web servers into running any commands that follow a carefully crafted series of characters in an HTTP request. The shellshock attacks are being used to infect thousands of machines with malware designed to make them part of a botnet of computers that obey hackers’ commands. And in at least one case the hijacked machines are already launching distributed denial of service attacks that flood victims with junk traffic, according to security researchers.
The attack is simple enough that it allows even unskilled hackers to easily piece together existing code to take control of target machines, says Chris Wysopal, chief technology officer for the web security firm Veracode. “People are pulling out their old bot kit command and control software, and they can plug it right in with this new vulnerability,” he says. “There’s not a lot of development time here. People were compromising machines within an hour of yesterday’s announcement.”
Wysopal points to attackers who are using a shellshock exploit to install a simple Perl program found on the open source code site GitHub. With that program in place, a command and control server can send orders to the infected target using the instant messaging protocol IRC, telling it to scan other networked computers or flood them with attack traffic. “You install it on the server that you’re able to get remote command execution on and now you can control that machine,” says Wysopal.
The hackers behind another widespread exploit using the Bash bug didn’t even bother to write their own attack program. Instead, they rewrote a proof-of-concept script created by security researcher Robert David Graham Wednesday that was designed to measure the extent of the problem. Instead of merely causing infected machines to send back a “ping” as in Graham’s script, however, the hackers’ rewrite instead installed malware that gave them a backdoor into victim machines. The exploit code politely includes a comment that reads “Thanks-Rob.”
The “Thanks-Rob” attack is more than a demonstration. The compromised machines are lobbing distributed denial of service attacks at three targets so far, according to researchers at Kaspersky Labs, though they haven’t yet identified those targets. The researchers at the Russian antivirus firm say they used a “honeypot” machine to examine the malware, locate its command and control server and intercept the DDoS commands it’s sending, but haven’t determined how many computers have already been infected.
Based on his own scanning before his tool’s code was repurposed by hackers, Graham estimates that thousands of machines have been caught up in the botnet. But millions may be vulnerable, he says. And the malware being installed on the target machines allows itself to be updated from a command and control server, so that it could be changed to scan for and infect other vulnerable machines, spreading far faster. Many in the security community fear that sort of “worm” is the inevitable result of the shellshock bug. “This is not simply a DDoS trojan,” says Kaspersky researcher Roel Schouwenberg. “It’s a backdoor, and you can definitely turn it into a worm.”
The only thing preventing hackers from creating that worm, says Schouwenberg, may be their desire to keep their attacks below the radar—too large of a botnet might attract unwanted attention from the security community and law enforcement. “Attackers don’t always want to make these things into worms, because the spread becomes uncontrollable,” says Schouwenberg. “It generally makes more sense to ration this thing out rather than use it to melt the internet.”
The Bash bug, first discovered by security researcher Stéphane Chazelas and revealed Wednesday in an alert from the US Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT), still doesn’t have a fully working patch. On Thursday Linux software maker Red Hat warned that a patch initially released along with CERT’s alert can be circumvented.
But Kaspersky’s Schouwenberg recommended that server administrators still implement the existing patch; While it’s not a complete cure for the shellshock problem, he says it does block the exploits he’s seen so far.
In the meantime, the security community is still bracing for the shellshock exploit to evolve into a fully self-replicating worm that would increase the volume of its infections exponentially. Veracode’s Chris Wysopal says it’s only a matter of time. “There’s no reason someone couldn’t modify this to scan for more bash bug servers and install itself,” Wysopal says. “That’s definitely going to happen.” ||||| But Shellshock could be a bigger threat. While Heartbleed could be used to do things like steal passwords from a server, Shellshock can be used to take over the entire machine. And Heartbleed went unnoticed for two years and affected an estimated 500,000 machines, but Shellshock was not discovered for 22 years.
That a flawed piece of code could go unnoticed for more than two decades could be surprising to many. But not to programmers.
Many of the commercial tools that individual users and large corporations depend upon are built on top of programs that are written and maintained by a few unpaid volunteers in what is called the open-source community. That community, along with big companies like Google, adjusts and builds new things on top of older work. The Macintosh operating system, for example, is routinely updated, but it is built on top of older programs like Unix.
Sometimes there are flaws in that code. And over the years, the flaw becomes part of all sorts of products.
Mr. Fox maintained Bash — which serves as a sort of software interpreter for different commands from a user — for five years before handing over the reins to Chet Ramey, a 49-year-old programmer who, for the last 22 years, has maintained the software as an unpaid hobby. That is, when he is not working at his day job as a senior technology architect at Case Western Reserve University in Ohio. |||||
A summary of this is?

– Remember the Heartbleed bug that made the Internet a sitting duck for hackers? We're now experiencing another security breach that's as bad or worse, reports CNET. One weird aspect, at least to laymen: The flaw has been around for 22 years but went unnoticed until this week. Known as "Shellshock," the bug affects a piece of software called Bash that's built into 70% of machines connected to the Web, the New York Times reports. That includes Macs and PCs with Linux and Unix operating systems. An Apple statement to CNET says the "vast majority" of users of its OS X operating system were not at risk. Ars Technica, meanwhile, explains how to determine if a Linux or Unix system is vulnerable. In theory, hackers could exploit a weakness in Bash that would allow them to take over an operating system and grab personal data, rather than just steal passwords. The National Institute of Standards and Technology gives it a 10 out of 10 for severity, and though the makers of Linux released a patch with news of the bug Wednesday, it now says the patch can be circumvented, Wired reports. "The number of systems needing to be patched, but which won't be, is much larger than Heartbleed," security expert Robert Graham writes at Errata Security. The bug is already being exploited, writes Wired's Andy Greenberg: "The shellshock attacks are being used to infect thousands of machines with malware designed to make them part of a botnet of computers that obey hackers' commands." And it's likely to get much worse: Soon, hackers will transform the bug into a worm "to scan for more bash bug servers and install itself," says another expert. "That's definitely going to happen."

Penguin Books is a British publishing house. It was co-founded in 1935 by Sir Allen Lane, his brothers Richard and John, as a line of the publishers The Bodley Head, only becoming a separate company the following year. Penguin revolutionised publishing in the 1930s through its inexpensive paperbacks, sold through Woolworths and other high street stores for sixpence, bringing high-quality paperback fiction and non-fiction to the mass market. Penguin's success demonstrated that large audiences existed for serious books. Penguin also had a significant impact on public debate in Britain, through its books on British culture, politics, the arts, and science.
Penguin Books is now an imprint of the worldwide Penguin Random House, an emerging conglomerate which was formed in 2013 by the merger of the two publishers. Formerly, Penguin Group was wholly owned by Pearson PLC, the global media company which also owned the "Financial Times", but it now retains only a minority holding of 47% of the stock against Random House owner Bertelsmann which controls the majority stake. It is one of the largest English-language publishers, formerly known as the "Big Six", now the "Big Five".
The first Penguin paperbacks were published in 1935, but at first only as an imprint of The Bodley Head (of Vigo Street) with the books originally distributed from the crypt of Holy Trinity Church Marylebone. Only paperback editions were published until the "King Penguin" series debuted in 1939, and latterly the "Pelican History of Art" was undertaken: these were unsuitable as paperbacks because of the length and copious illustrations on art paper so cloth bindings were chosen instead. Penguin Books has its registered office in the City of Westminster, London, England.

Answer the questions at the end based on the text.
(EW.com) -- "The Closer" closed out Kyra Sedgwick's involvement in the series on Monday night, installing Mary McDonnell in her place, in a "new" series, "Major Crimes."
While I have no inside information about how McDonnell was originally cast in "The Closer," I'm led to think, based on the premiere episode that aired after the "Closer" finale, that she was never intended to be the new star of the show. Because the new show is, I believe, an inevitable disappointment for hardcore "Closer" fans. As for those of us who are Mary McDonnell fans? Ambivalence reigns!
First of all, the exit of Sedgwick's Brenda Leigh Johnson. (This is your SPOILER ALERT.)
"The Closer" series finale brought closure to Deputy Chief Johnson's career, as she faced off with her long-running arch-nemesis, the serial rapist Philip Stroh (Billy Burke). Then Johnson abruptly accepted a new job (something like chief of bureau of investigations L.A. liason officer in the D.A.'s office -- it sounded like the longest-titled cushy job possible) and lit out, munching a signature bit of junk food.
Over the years, "The Closer" had become a light-comedy crime show with heavy-handed humor performed not just by Sedgwick but also the supporting cast that has migrated over to "Major Crimes," especially G.W. Bailey, whose slow burns have become endless fuming, and, only by contrast to a lesser extent, Tony Denison, Michael Paul Chan, Raymond Cruz, and Phillip P. Keene. (I've always found it interesting that Denison and Chan are veterans of two, need I say superior, Michael Mann TV shows, Crime Story and Robbery Homicide Division -- indeed, many of Chan's gestures and body language when he enters a crime scene strongly echo his moves in RHD, and I'd bet that's where he picked up those good habits, from Mann's heavily-researched series.)
1. What plot point required a spoiler alert?
2. From what show?
3. Was the actor replaced?
4. By who?
5. Did the program keep its original name when this happened?
6. What name did it take?
7. Does the program air at the end of the week or the front of the week?
8. Was the departing character's arc completed?
9. Did she have a bad guy she kept facing off with?
10. Who was he?

The BBC is using laws designed to catch terrorists and organised crime networks to track down people who dodge the licence fee, it emerged yesterday. The publicly-funded corporation uses the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA), designed by the last Labour government to fight terrorism, to catch those who evade paying the £145.50 fee. Now, however, its ability to use sweeping surveillance powers could be stopped by a new review announced yesterday by culture secretary Sajid Javid. Mr Javid's independent inquiry into TV licence fee enforcement will examine the corporation's use of covert surveillance operations on those it thinks have not paid the obligatory licence fee. Scroll down for video. Culture Secretary Sajid Javid has ordered an independent inquiry into the BBC's use of anti-terror spying laws. The Culture Secretary said enforcement of TV licensing will be examined in a new review (file image) Although the BBC has admitted using the hugely controversial RIPA, it has refused to say in what way, when and how often. Appearing before the Commons culture, media and sport committee yesterday, Mr Javid was asked whether he felt it was 'appropriate' for the corporation to use RIPA powers. He replied: 'This whole issue of people who aren't paying the licence fee, how do you go after them and get them to pay, needs to be looked at very carefully. 'And that's exactly why I set up this review, which is an independent review.' He said that the inquiry will be led by leading barrister David Perry QC, and will conclude next June. Mr Perry has previously advised the Crown Prosecution Service on the cash for honours scandal, and acted for the CPS on the prosecution of radical Muslim hate preacher Abu Hamza for murder and race-hate offences. The review's primary purpose is to investigate whether evasion should be decriminalised following concern at the number of convictions. Almost 200,000 people are prosecuted a year – one in nine of all lower court cases - and more than 50 people were sent to prison in 2012-2013 for failing to buy a TV licence. Many get penalties of up to £1,000 and a criminal record. The BBC has been used anti-terror spying laws to catch licence fee dodgers, but maybe not for much longer. Mr Javid said: 'When the licence fee was put in place it was a long, long time ago and some people argued that you needed to have criminal sanctions because there is no way to cut off someone if they don't pay their fee in the way you can cut off someone's electricity supply. 'But clearly times have changed. 'Technology has moved on. Also, there is a question of fairness – 50 people went to jail for not paying their licence fee. I think this raises considerable concerns.' Tory MP John Whittingdale, who chairs the culture committee, said there were 'big question marks' over the BBC's use of RIPA powers. He added: 'The problem is, the BBC won't tell us how it is being used, or in what circumstances. That means we can't be sure it is being used properly. 'This legislation was designed to fight terrorism and organised crime. I can't imagine it was intended for people who don't pay their TV licence.' Emma Carr, of the campaign group Big Brother Watch, said: 'The public were told these powers were going to be used to catch terrorists and paedophiles, not to help the BBC to snoop on people who haven't paid the licence fee. 'It is clear that the use of these powers has reached unacceptable levels. It is important that there is a wholesale review of how these [powers] are being used not just by police and intelligence services but also by organisations like the BBC.' Home Secretary Theresa May recently ordered that the rules governing the use of RIPA should be tightened so they are used only to investigate serious crimes. The Metropolitan Police Service has come under fire for using the powers to access the phone logs of reporters on two newspapers to trace their sources. In 2012, Big Brother Watch discovered 345 councils had been authorised to use RIPA 9,607 times in just three years – the equivalent of around nine spying missions a day. Seven public authorities, including the BBC, refused under the Freedom of Information Act to disclose why or how often they had used the powers. New BBC Trust chairman Rona Fairhead, pictured at a previous meeting, was accused of 'going native' by Conservative MP Philp Davies after her initial report on the corporation described it in glowing terms. At the time, the BBC said the reason for its secrecy was 'to ensure people without a valid TV licence don't use this information to their advantage'. Last night a BBC spokesman said: 'Legislation explicitly grants the BBC the right to use these powers to detect unlicensed use of television receivers. 'We're regularly inspected by independent regulators and have always been open about using this power when there is no other option to help reduce evasion on behalf of the vast majority of the population who pay for their licence.' RIPA, passed by Labour in 2000 ostensibly as an anti-terror measure, gives public authorities sweeping powers to snoop on the public. The most common use of the legislation is to demand phone companies hand over an individual's communications data. This would include details of who a person called, when and for how long. However, the act can also be used to mount undercover surveillance operations – such as secretly following a person to see when they are at home. This could, in theory, be used to match the times when a TV is believed to have been in use. Rona Fairhead, the new chairman of the BBC Trust, the independent governing body of the BBC, was accused of 'going native' after giving a glowing initial report into the corporation. Many had hoped Fairhead, who had extensive private sector experience before joining the Trust, would bring a firmer approach to the corporation whose image had been tarnished by scandals including large pay-offs for departing executives. Conservative MP Philip Davies said he was 'alarmed' by Fairhead not having identified a single weakness yet, and asked her 'Have you gone native in record time?' She replied: 'Absolutely not.'
