Support Site For Hospital Respirators Found Riddled With Malware

Possibly - but the most malware-infected sites are sometimes the ones you wouldn't expect. Charities. Churches. Fraternal organizations. Anyplace where the servers are operated and maintained by volunteers who don't have a financial stake in the organization's operations, and who don't have a good background in security.

Porn sites, on the other hand, are run by businesses who expect repeat business, and can't afford to scare customers away with malware. Their sites are much LESS likely to be infected, because they have professional IT staffs.

You get the IT support you pay for.

The Evolution of the Doltish Dad

This past fall, the networks began to experiment with new gender dynamics. In a crop of new sitcoms, from Man Up! to Last Man Standing, the husbands were unemployed or otherwise obsolete while the wives went to work. (In Up All Night, Chris? wife Reagan is a TV executive for an Oprah like diva.) At first the shows just overlaid the old sitcom stock types?doltish dad, haranguing wife?onto the new storylines. But then the writers began to relax and experiment, assigning certain personality traits of the old stock type to the wrong gender. Reagan for example turned into a version of Ralph Kramden, prone to tantrums and meddling. Like the classic doltish dad, she creates elaborate schemes to fix domestic problems but only winds up making everything worse. And then Chris swoops in, Alice-style, to make it all better. The success of Up All Night bodes well for the slightly evolved dad; Last Man Standing, starring Tim Allen, has also survived.

Upstart Stony Brook loses 9-1 to UCLA in CWS debut

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) ? So much for shocking the world. This time Stony Brook got zapped.

Tyler Johnson allowed five runs in the first inning and the Seawolves couldn't get much going against UCLA ace Adam Plutko in losing 9-1 in their College World Series debut on Friday.

Johnson said the pressure of playing in front of 22,000 people at TD Ameritrade Park on college baseball's biggest stage was no excuse.

"We're a very good ball club and we're here for a reason," he said. "It didn't go our way today. That's going to happen. We'll get back after it on Sunday."

Stony Brook (52-14) has staved off elimination five times in the NCAA tournament and will have to do it again Sunday in order to extend its stay in Omaha.

Until Friday it had been an amazing week for a Stony Brook baseball program that has been Division I for only 12 years. Little known outside the Northeast, the Seawolves emerged on the national scene with their "Shock The World" mantra after upsetting powerful LSU in a three-game super regional in Baton Rouge, La.

The Seawolves came to town as the first team from their part of the country to play at the CWS since Maine in 1986.

They were no match for a UCLA team that has won 134 games the past three seasons ? the best stretch in program history.

Plutko, who threw a two-hit shutout against Creighton in the regional and allowed two runs in seven innings against TCU in the super regional, gave up just two singles before Pat Cantwell drilled his second homer of the season in the third.

"Even if they hadn't scored as much as they did early, you go up against a team like that, and a pitcher like that, you're only going to get a couple of chances to score," Stony Brook coach Matt Senk said. "We had some chances with people in scoring position with less than two outs, and we didn't take advantage of that."

The Bruins (48-14) sent 10 batters to the plate in the first inning against Johnson (12-2), who allowed a season-high seven runs in a 2 1-3-inning outing that was his shortest of the year. Jeff Gelalich's bases-loaded single opened the scoring, and Kevin Williams' two-run double off Jasvir Rakkar in the third made it 7-1.

"We had some plate discipline, had some quality at-bats, and we were fortunate we got some runs," UCLA coach John Savage said. "I'm sure he has not started off a game like that all season long."

Plutko (12-3) allowed five hits and struck out seven in seven innings. He has given up three runs and 14 hits in 23 postseason innings.

Stony Brook threatened in the second inning when its first two batters reached base and again in the fifth after Sal Intagliata's double put men on second and third with no outs.

The Seawolves couldn't push across a run either time. Plutko got a strikeout and pop foul to end the second. In the fifth, UCLA first baseman Trevor Brown threw out Kevin Courtney at home after Travis Jankowski grounded out, though it appeared on television replays that Courtney touched the plate ahead of Tyler Heineman's tag.

"Any pitcher knows that you get a lot of confidence when your team starts scoring runs. It makes it easier to pitch," Plutko said. "They did a good job coming back in the top of the second inning. They really put the pressure on. I got out of it, but it gives the team a lot of confidence, and gives the pitcher, for sure, a lot of confidence."

The Bruins, winners of 10 straight and 20 of their last 22, have outscored the competition 42-10 in six NCAA tournament games.

They wasted no time getting to Johnson, who came in 3-0 in the NCAA tournament and off wins in 12 straight decisions since a March 2 loss to East Carolina.

Johnson said his heavy workload the past two weeks wasn't a factor.

"At this point of the year no one's really 100 percent," he said. "We've got guys going out there with little bumps and bruises here and there. But fact of the matter is, I just wasn't on today. I had a good five days to rest, so as much as people may say it was overworking, it was just me being off today and a good UCLA team took advantage."

Beau Amaral and Heineman singled and Cody Keefer walked before Gelalich, the Cincinnati Reds' first-round draft pick, singled down the right-field line for two runs. Brown followed with an RBI single and Pat Valaika's safety squeeze bunt made it 4-0.

The Seawolves' hard luck continued when Kevin Kramer's grounder bounced off the third base bag before William Carmona could make a play, allowing another run to score.

It was the third time this season Stony Brook has allowed five or more runs in an inning. The Seawolves fell behind 5-0 in the first inning against Missouri State in a regional elimination game but rallied to win 10-7.

International tribunals shouldn't override U.S. banking laws | The ...

? Will Governor Walker?s victory dishearten Wisconsin?s civil servants? | Home

By Lauren | June 14, 2012

Regular readers of this blog know that I tend to be a big suppoter of President Obama, but a story posted by The Huffington Post yesterday has my blood running cold. Public Citizen, a non-profit watchdog group, has reportedly gotten its collective hands on a leaked document from the Obama Administration?s trade negotiations with the Trans-Pacific Partnership of eight Pacific nations. According to The Huffington Post, the leaked document demonstrates that the Obama Administration has agreed to allow foreign corporations to challenge U.S. banking, environmental, public safety and other laws before an international tribunal. Should it find in favor of the foreign challenger, the tribunal could override U.S. law and impose trade sanctions on the United States for failing to abide by its decisions. Oh, and it?s not as though the tribunal would necessarily be unbiased. Public Citizen is quoted as saying that ??the tribunals would be staffed by private sector lawyers that rotate between acting as ?judges? and as advocates for the investors suing the governments.?? That sounds an awful lot like ?the foxes will be guarding the henhouse? to me, which could open the U.S. investment market to a cavalcade of essentially unregulated foreign investors.

Didn?t we learn anything from the meltdown on Wall Street four years ago?

Apparently, the appeal of this proposal is that it would allow U.S. companies to challenge similarly the local laws of the Trans-Pacific Partnership countries. That undoubtedly sounds just dandy to corporate pirates who can?t wait to get unfettered access to rape and pillage (metaphorically, of course) in foreign financial markets without concerns about the local constabulary, but they really should think again. Their companies would be bound at home by U.S. laws their foreign competitors could sidestep, and it?s not hard to imagine how U.S. investment firms could lose their Stateside while chasing after will-o?-the-wisp opportunities abroad.

I?m a great believer in greater international understanding, cooperation and trade, but this is not the way to go about it. What bothers me most is the secrecy swathing these negotiations. Congress has reportedly been kept in the dark, and the story is complex enough that it hasn?t had much play in our ?news as entertainment? media. (After all, Miley Cyrus is newly engaged - what more could anyone possibly want to know?) I can?t cite this as a reason to vote against President Obama in November because Mitt Romney also reportedly supports the deal, so we?re likely to get it no matter who wins the White House. Still, I think it would be a profound mistake to allow an international tribunal to override U.S. laws for the benefit of foreign investors. Mr. President, please reconsider.
