Fan Faire 2013 - Faire Harder! |
This year's Fan Faire united two events: The Fan Faire and DEF CON 21!
The Crushbone contingent combined with a slippery Toukai (who, with a little hacker social engineering, crashed the party), and whooped it up until the pool closed at the strike of midnight.
It was a great pleasure to once again meet the people behind the characters; an especially warm welcome to Adaac, who traveled far to attend his first Fan Faire!
I sincerely hope the opportunity for us all to meet again comes soon, and that the timing is more favorable. (Sequential cons next time, not concurrent!) |

Apocalypse Postponed – You Still have to Pay Your Mortgage Jan 1st |
Yup, bad news, your bills are still due.
The Mayans and their predecessors, the Olmec, figured out the concept of zero hundreds of years before other parts of the world including the Mediterranean and Europe. But the confusion about the end of the world occurred because the same marker used to indicate zero also could be used for 13.
The Mayan long-count calendar has names for certain chunks of time. A baktun is a unit of time that represents close to 400 years. On Friday, there will have been 13 baktuns passed since the Mayan "year zero." The baktun is the largest chunk of time depicted on most long-count calendars, but there are also pictuns, or 20 baktuns.
Mayanist Michael Coe may be responsible for starting the fear surrounding the end-of-the-world scenario in the 1960s, before the great revolution in Mayan studies. Coe speculated as to how the Mayan people might have envisioned the end of 13 baktuns:
"This, our present universe, would be annihilated when the great cycles of the long-count reached completion."
In these enlightened days, of course, no one believes a word of it. |

Mother's Day Marketplace Sale |
May 11th through the 13th, the Marketplace will be having a Mother's Day sale.
The modern holiday was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother in the US. She then began a campaign to make "Mother's Day" a recognized holiday in the US. Although she was successful in 1914, she was already disappointed with its commercialization by the 1920s. Jarvis' holiday was adopted by other countries and it's now celebrated all over the world. |

Friday the 13th Game Item Sale |
Uh... some sort of sale, on some sort of superstitious day.
Every month that begins on a Sunday will contain a Friday the 13th, and there is at least one Friday the 13th in every calendar year.
The longest period that can occur without a Friday the 13th is fourteen months, either from July to September the following common year (e.g. between 2001–02, 2012–13, and 2018–19), or from August to October the following leap year (e.g. between 1999–2000 or 2027–28). |

Sony will cut about 10,000 jobs, which equates to about six percent of its global workforce, by the end of the year. The move comes after the Tokyo-based electronics firm more than doubled its loss forecast on April 5 to $2.9 billion, and the recent hiring of a new CEO, Kazuo Hirai, on April 1. Hirai looks to downsize Sony and pivot the company in a new direction to get out of the red for the first time in four years. The company will reportedly sell off its chemical products division, cutting about 3,000 workers in the process, and also make cuts within its small and midsize LCD operations. Sony did not say if it would cut these jobs in Japan, abroad, or both. |
