More Evidence Online Dating Sites are Dangerous

(U.S.A.) Army lieutenant Peter Burks was killed in Iraq in 2007 but that didn’t stop dating website True.com from swiping his picture and using it in ads to attract women to their website. The picture was spotted on two ad spots at free dating in the USA site PlentyofFish.com with the words ”Military Man Searching for Love” and ”Soldiers Want You!” The Burks family is now planning to sue both PlentyOfFish.com and True.com for their parts in using the photo without permission. The family says Burks died just days after the photo was taken and that he definitely didn’t upload the photograph to the website. In fact the photo was being used on a website to help raise funds to provide supplies to troops in Burks’ honor which is likely where the picture was stolen from. The Burks family also notes that Peter Burks was engaged when he died which makes True.com’s claims of “Soldier’s Want You!” nothing more than a scam to attract users to the site through the use of fake profiles. In the meantime a representative for PlentyOfFish notes that the website displays ads from hundreds of thousands of advertisers and is not in charge of the ads for those websites. True.com ads were quickly blocked by PlentyOfFish.com after the Burks family notified the website of the issue. In the meantime True.com’s potential members might want to look for a dating site that doesn’t create fake profiles in order to lure them in. What might be the most tragic part of the entire ordeal is that True.com founder Herb Vest attacked other dating websites during a 2006 Forbes interview, as he put it at that time: “We had to establish a wholesome environment for courtship. Internet dating is populated, to a large degree, by criminals and married people.” It looks like True.com has turned into the exact type of company it hoped to fight against just five years earlier.

Juniper takes customer service to the next level with GSA 7.0



Editors note:Today’s guest blogger is Brian Kissel, Business CIO of Juniper Networks, a global producer of digital network solutions and services. Brian’s team is leading a project to improve the findability of useful information for employees across the company, using the Google Search Appliance 7.0.

At Juniper, our ability to manage and access knowledge directly impacts our ability to innovate and deliver value to our customers. However, as at most enterprises, this “corporate knowledge” is contained in various places across the company.

For instance, in a single customer support call, our team might need to consult and filter through more than four different applications to see if similar issues had been solved before, or look for an existing fix. Doing this one by one using the default search tool within these systems was a real time-waster. It also meant we could overlook some of the information needed to make better decisions. And in the meantime, our customer is waiting!

To solve this problem, we recently started using the Google Search Appliance (GSA) across these systems. With the GSA, it was pretty straightforward to provide a single, unified search box, similar to a “Google.com for our business.” As with Google.com, we no longer have to ask the question of “which site might have this,” or correlate different ideas from different systems. Google made it possible to connect to our various sources, all while preserving the end-user security we apply to our different content.

Using GSA means one source of truth, delivering highly relevant search results. With our previous solution, employees wouldn’t find what they were looking for, or would have to look through multiple pages before finding it. With the GSA, people find what they are looking for on the first page without having to click back.

This has reduced turnaround time in solving customer problems and improved the level of our service. This saves direct costs, but, more importantly, leads to happier customers. For engineering, it means faster access to relevant information such as technical specification documents, product plans, and customer cases, which helps them design and build innovative products and solutions, better and faster.

Compared to traditional enterprise search solutions, GSA requires less human intervention for configuration, management and optimization, and we estimate that our labor costs have been reduced by approximately 25% as a result. Overall, by deploying Google Search internally, not only have we seen a tremendous boost in employee productivity, but we’ve managed to delight our employees by delivering a search experience that they are familiar with in their personal lives and also scales to the Enterprise.

Games Workshop's Customer Service


When it comes to customer service from Games Workshop, I have always received second to none great service. It just happens that a Warpsmith (chaos space marine) a good friend of mine received, had some issues, primarily with the power axe the model comes with. The model itself was fine and usable, but the axe was literally missing a large chunk of the handle beneath its hands.

Surprise: Wall of Martyrs Fortification and More Dark Angel Rumors

Dark Angels heavy support is listed here as well as a dedicated transport list.

Mere centuries after the end of the Horus Heresy, the newly-founded Flesh Tearers Chapter continues its bloody crusade against the xenos races that threaten Segmentum Pacificus. Chapter Master Amit leads his warriors to a feral world in pursuit of orks, but discovers something far more ancient and deadly in the depths of the jungle. Already battle-weary, the Flesh Tearers must master the dark legacy of their primarch Sanguinius if they are to prevail... and perhaps find a world worthy of being called their home.

More Eldar in the News


This time around though its from the Black Library and Gav Thorpe. I have been keeping up on Gav Thorpe's series of books about eldar and their background, which I think is the strongest part of his books so far, and I expect this one to be no different. The exciting part of this is its about Howling Banshees.

The Eldar Codex Moves Forward



The Eldar codex has been started. I take the rumor below to mean that the design and testing side of things is done, and everything has been handed over to the author for writing. If that is the case its normally a about a 6 month deal to finish it. That doesnt mean released in 6 months, rather the codex will be ready to be released in that time period.

French Games Day Interview with Robin Cruddace



This is an excellent brief interview with Robbin Cruddace at France's Games Day which to my understanding just ended the previous weekend. Robbin was gracious enough to answer some questions by one of our readers here, and Commissar-Lord Brusilov wrote up an excellent overview of that conversation. This is definitely worth your time to read, answers some questions about the Black Templar and codex creation, so sit back and enjoy on a hopefully quiet Sunday morning.

Not Yet Released Model Seen in this Picture


This was shown to us here on the site comment section, and I am sure many readers have already seen it. On the left hand side of this picture is part of a chaos chariot that is not yet released. Hastings has said it looks like it will comes early next year alongside the Warriors of Chaos army book.

Scuzgob was the reader I am crediting with revealing the leak to us. Not sure if there was someone first elsewhere.

Deathwing and Ravenwing Rumors



This one looks slick, with Deathwing Terminators assaulting off of deepstrike and taking options like Plasma Cannons. They of course are seperated into different unit types for deathwing like some earlier rumors were saying, for HQ, Elite, and Troop units.

Take a look, it looks like Dark Angels are going to be tough.

In this mornings rumors we have Ork Weird Boys with powers that get more dangerous the more Orks that surround them, with powers directly from Mork (offensive), and ones from Gork (strategic). There are large new squigoth type creatures, new rules for Mega Armour units, and Orks with FnP.

Faet 212: Artist Showcase -Brovatar


Its Halloween, and here is a treat for the readers here. An installment of the Artist Showcase hits this week. Its been lacking just because of lack of people wanting to be showcased, and after a few weeks gets left in the dust. Lets hope we get more special treats like this one.

This hobby is about many things, but one of the few things it is not often called is art. By any terms of work, or artistic creativity, there are many Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy models found throughout the world that are pure artwork at its finest. From painting, sculpting, and to customization, this hobby produces some of the best, and this is their showcase.

Something to Watch Out For


Somehow this got lost in my inbox, so I wanted to make sure it gets its post. I want to say first off, that I have no first hand knowledge of how Maelstrom Games is doing, but I also do not want fellow hobbyist to get the short end of the buck. On that end, I would be careful of ordering through companies that are close or seem to be going under.

Presence of Faeit: A Great Sadness



Over the last week we have a few rumors to keep me busy, but for the most part this end of year silence is deafening to me. Even the in-box is slow regarding rumors and readers findings of new information all over the world, and I cannot wait for a little pick-me-up in the rumor mill.

It's Official: From the Wastes They Come




Now up for pre-order,  the Warriors of Chaos are getting updates. I do think BW's videos are much better than they were a year ago. These are enjoyable and its very cool to see these models presented in this fashion.

From the Realm of Chaos comes the deadliest threat known to civilization  Clad in ancient armour and splattered with the blood of their foes, the Warriors of Chaos descend upon the Old World to wreak death and destruction

The Strength of Armour in 6th: Part 2


6th edition started, and immediately it was clear that armour had taken a beating with the new rule set. Immediately there were list after list virtually no armour. I was right there with you, and yes, I loudly proclaimed to just about everybody that I ran into that the mech heavy list was DOA.

Literally dozens of games later, no idea how many, I have done a 180 on the mech heavy list, can say with a lot of truth, that my heavy mech lists are wrecking many an opponent, and that I feel the community has missed out on the opportunity that mech in 6th edition provides.

The Strength of Armour in 6th Edition: Transports


Vehicles in 6th edition have changed the way we play 40k. My first response to 6th edition increased the number of infantry units on my battlefields. I saw a huge shift in what I thought were the strongest lists, and that in general included less and less armour. However, as time has gone on, I have taken a complete 180 in my lists, and more and more vehicles are making it into my lists.

So what do I think of mechanized lists in 6th edition?
