NSA knew about, exploited Heartbleed for years: Bloomberg report.

NSA knew about, exploited Heartbleed for years: Bloomberg report.: By Lily Hay Newman

"It just doesn't end. Bloomberg is reporting that, according to “two people familiar with the matter,” the NSA has known about the Heartbleed vulnerability for at least two years—and was using it to collect information about people instead of, you know, telling someone about it and getting it fixed.

With millions of websites compromised, people all over the world changing their passwords for protection, the Canadian government suspending electronic tax filing, and people speculating about whether Heartbleed is the “worst vulnerability ever,” this could end up looking pretty bad for the agency. Good thing it already has a sparkly-clean public image, or it might be in trouble.

According to Bloomberg, it doesn’t seem that the NSA created Heartbleed—it just found the bug and used it. " http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2014/04/11/nsa_knew_about_exploited_heartbleed_for_years_bloomberg_report.html?wpisrc=newsletter_jcr:content&mc_cid=67b8a19711&mc_eid=b27361148d

Today, President Obama is nominating former Office of Management and Budget director Sylvia Burwell to take Kathleen Sebelius’ newly-vacant position as secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Politico’s story on Burwell highlights her résumé (she comes from a McKinsey–Gates Foundation–Robert Rubin–Larry Summers line of center-left technocracy) and the challenges her new job presents (Obamacare Obamacare Obamacare).

News from The Hill Michigan's waning congressional clout By Russell Berman

News from The Hill

Michigan's waning congressional clout By Russell Berman

Michigan's unlikely dominance in congressional clout is about to take a hit.

Though the state is the country's ninth-largest by population, it is tops along with California with six committee chairmen – four Republicans in the House and two Democrats in the Senate. And the two longest-serving members of the House, Reps. John Dingell (D) and John Conyers (D), hail from Michigan and carry more than a century of congressional seniority between them.

But that will change in 2015 with the retirement of Dingell, the dean of the House, and three of the men wielding gavels in the Capitol: Reps. Dave Camp (R) and Mike Rogers (R), and Sen. Carl Levin (D). Read the story here.

Apple designer's court testimony recalls birth of iPhone | PCWorld

Apple designer's court testimony recalls birth of iPhone | PCWorld:

"Martyn Williams Apr 4, 2014 "The roots of the iPhone can be traced to many corners of Apple’s campus in Cupertino, California, but a Silicon Valley courtroom on Friday heard how some of the most recognizable software features came from a team working in a dark, dirty, windowless room with special security to keep others out.

The story of the iPhone’s software design was related by Greg Christie, an Apple vice president and software designer, as part of Apple’s patent infringement case against Samsung. Christie is one of the inventors listed on the patent for the “slide to unlock” function, which is one of the patents in question in Apple’s lawsuit against Samsung, on trial in the U.S. District Court in San Jose, California.

Rejoice! The Start menu is coming back to Windows | PCWorld

Rejoice! The Start menu is coming back to Windows | PCWorld: "
Brad Chacos @BradChacos Apr 2, 2014" You heard right, devout desktop lovers: The Start menu is coming back to Windows, Microsoft operating system head Terry Myerson announced at Build on Wednesday.

The details are hazy, aside from the fact that it's going to be pushed to all Windows 8.1 users as an update at some point in the future. But it's a-coming—though it's not quite the Start menu you're familiar with. Beyond the traditional mouse-friendly features, the Windows 8.1 Start menu will be crammed with Live Tiles, along with the ability to find and install Microsoft's universal Windows apps, also announced Wednesday.

Baltimore Orioles baseball, celebrating 60 years of Orioles baseball.

March 31, 2014

The Baltimore Orioles have a wonderful website, “Celebrating 60 years of Orioles Baseball” here: http://baltimore.orioles.mlb.com/bal/fan_forum/60_anniversary_mediaguides.jsp Well, at least that is where the media guides, 1954-2013 are located.

I have written quite a number of stories on baseball, baseball in Carroll County, Md., and the Baltimore Orioles, http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/search/label/Sports%20Baltimore%20Orioles, over the years and have attended a few spring trainings in Florida.

Next week’s column will touch upon some of the history of Orioles baseball. That column will be published here: http://www.baltimoresun.com/search/dispatcher.front?Query=Kevin+Dayhoff&target=adv_all

I just spent a great deal of time thoroughly enjoying going through the 1954 media guide which may be found here: http://baltimore.orioles.mlb.com/bal/fan_forum/media_guides.jsp?loc=1954

Please enjoy… Just saying. Play ball.

NetRight Daily» Clouds on the solar horizon

NetRight Daily» Clouds on the solar horizon: "By Marita Noon

Consumers considering installing solar panels on their rooftops have far more to think through than the initial decision to “go solar.”"

http://netrightdaily.com/2014/04/clouds-solar-horizon/?utm_source=WhatCounts+Publicaster+Edition&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Can+Obama+give+away+the+Internet+without+Congress%3f&utm_content=Clouds+on+the+solar+horizon%0d+

{...}

Last month, it was reported that solar panels can be “dangerous in an emergency.” Firefighters have been forced to stop fighting a fire due to electrocution concerns. The report quotes Northampton, MA, Fire Chief Brian Duggan as saying electrocution is not their only concern: “cutting through the roof for ventilation would also take a lot longer.” Springfield fire commissioner Joe Conant says: “nothing will stop them if there’s a life to be saved, but if it’s simply to save the structure, solar panels may keep them from going on the roof.

A Fox News story on the risk solar panels pose to fire-fighters states: “Two recent fires involving structures decked with solar panels have triggered complaints from fire chiefs and calls for new codes and regulations that reflect the dangers posed by the clean-energy devices. A two-alarm fire last week at a home in Piedmont, Calif., prompted Piedmont Fire Chief Warren McLaren to say the technology ‘absolutely’ made it harder on firefighters. Weeks earlier, in Delanco, NJ, more than 7,000 solar panels on the roof of a massive 300,000-square foot warehouse factored into Delanco Fire Chief Ron Holt’s refusal to send his firefighters onto the roof of a Dietz & Watson facility.”

In part, due to the increased fire concerns, roof-top solar panels can increase the cost of homeowners insurance

Starbucks Retools Pastry Menu After Customers Complain - Bloomberg

Starbucks Retools Pastry Menu After Customers Complain - Bloomberg: "By Leslie Patton Apr 1, 2014"

[...]

Starting this week, the company will begin reverting to selling slices of banana, pumpkin and iced-lemon loaf cake -- old favorites -- in its U.S. stores. Starbucks will be using new La Boulange recipes and existing suppliers to create food that more closely resembles its previous fare.

Getting the menu right is critical to Starbucks’ U.S. growth strategy. In a saturated coffee market, the company is trying to entice more customers to add a pastry or croissant to their latte orders. Starbucks also faces mounting breakfast competition from fast-food chains: McDonald’s Corp. has been offering pastries at some locations this year, and everyone from Taco Bell to Burger King is trying to boost morning sales.

Stephen Colbert's #CancelColbert response: Comedian responds to backlash to Comedy Central tweet. (Video.)

Stephen Colbert's #CancelColbert response: Comedian responds to backlash to Comedy Central tweet. (Video.) By Josh Voorhees

The #CancelColbert push didn't pick up steam until last Thursday, after Stephen Colbert had taped his final show of the week. That means we had to wait for what seemed like forever for the comedian to respond. It was, of course, worth the wait—even if he does lump Slate in with the rest of the "system," something that at first blush I thought was a wee bit unfair to our nuanced and explanatory coverage of the whole thing. (That said, it was hilarious, so I'm happy to largely look the other way.)

By Bonner Cohen, Ph. D. March 31, 2014

In a hard-fought and stunning victory for family farmers and property rights throughout the Commonwealth, Gov. Terry McAuliffe on March 5 signed into law legislation solidifying Virginia’s status as a right-to-farm state by limiting local officials’ ability to interfere with normal agricultural operations.

The governor’s signature marks the latest chapter in a swirling controversy that attracted nationwide attention in 2012 when the Fauquier County Board of Supervisors forced family farmer Martha Boneta to cease selling produce from her own 64-acre farm. No longer allowed to sell the vegetables she had harvested, Boneta donated the food to local charities lest it go to waste.

Fauquier County officials threatened Boneta with $5,000 per-day fines for hosting a birthday party for eight 10-year-old girls without a permit, and advertising pumpkin carvings. Seeing the county’s action against Boneta as a brazen effort to drive her off her land, Virginians from all walks of life rallied to her defense. Supporters gathered in Warrenton, the county seat, for a peaceful “pitchfork protest” to vent their anger over what an out-of-control local government had done to a law-abiding citizen....

[...]

By contrast, opponents of the bill, including well-funded environmental organizations and power-hungry county governments – both determined to preserve strict land-use controls – reportedly employed lobbyists to kill the bill. In the end, highly motivated citizens triumphed over highly paid lobbyists...
