You would think that being a Microsoft publication this would help you pass their 70-291 but it does not. The book

has far to many typos, misleading information and down right errors. Using this book to prepare for the test is counterproductive. (a total waste of time)

After missing some DNS questions on the exam I went back to the book which indicated I had answered correctly. Then I verified through other sources just to

find out the book was wrong. Unfortunately the book uses the same misleading and intentionally vague language that is used in their tests which I had hoped

would help me pass the test but it did not. Look elsewhere for book to help with the 70-291 test, this book will hurt more than help.

I also found too many errors, which made studying tough. It’s distracting, particularly when working the practice questions to find out that some of the

choices are typos. Or that some of the answers at the end of the chapter are typos. Most of the content is good, but the first reviewer had it right: Keep

looking.

Boeing turns aging planes into drones for Air Force target practice

What should the U.S. Air Force do with its aging fleet of aircraft? After all, the aircraft boneyard is already pretty crowded.

How about using them for target practice?

Boeing has been turning outdated planes into unmanned drones that the Air Force can use in targeting drills.

The Daily Mail reports that Boeing has successfully converted six F-16 fighter jets into drones, allowing the aircraft to take off and fly without a pilot. Boeing says it’s the first time a F-16 has flown unmanned.

“It’s a replication of current, real world situations and aircraft platforms they can shoot as a target,” U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Ryan Inman, Commander of the 82nd Aerial Targets Squadron said in a release. “Now we have a 9G capable, highly sustainable aerial target.”

The jets had all previously been retired and were residing at Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona. Boeing restored the jets and added the necessary equipment to allow them to fly as drones.

The renamed “QF-16 Full Scale Aerial Target” are now set to be used in combat drills at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida, with two Air Force test pilots controlling the target craft from the ground. In the future, the unmanned planes will also be used for weapons testing.

“I love the F-16 and brag about it a lot — and now to get something ready to take off on its own, so somebody else can shoot it down, makes it a little bittersweet in my eyes,” U.S. Air Force test pilot Jason Clements said in a video released by Boeing.

Air Force officials say they will now be used in fire drills at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico.

And to get a sense of just how sophisticated the drone controls are, considering that the planes not only took off and landed without a pilot, they actually reached supersonic speeds and simulated combat maneuvers during the test drills.

Stars and Stripes adds that during the first drone test flights, the modified F-16’s reached heights of 40,000 feet and completed several barrel rolls at 7G before returning to the ground.

Popular Science ends reader comments, says practice is bad for science

Popular Science says that online reader comments have become bad for science (WikiCommons)

The scientific method relies on rigorous observation and peer-based feedback as critical components in testing a hypothesis. But one of the world's leading science publications now says there is a major difference when it comes to reading news articles about science.

In a surprising move, the website for Popular Science announced it is no longer allowing reader comments on its articles. And in a potentially even more controversial move, the site’s online content director boldly explains the decision was reached because of the publication's belief that reader comments are actually bad for science.

“A politically motivated, decades-long war on expertise has eroded the popular consensus on a wide variety of scientifically validated topics,” writes Suzanne LaBarre. “Everything, from evolution to the origins of climate change, is mistakenly up for grabs again. Scientific certainty is just another thing for two people to ‘debate’ on television. And because comments sections tend to be a grotesque reflection of the media culture surrounding them, the cynical work of undermining bedrock scientific doctrine is now being done beneath our own stories, within a website devoted to championing science.”

LaBarre says there is evidence suggesting that skewed comments can impact a reader’s original view of a news story, even if the comments are inaccurate or misleading. “Simply including an ad hominem attack in a reader comment was enough to make study participants think the downside of the reported technology was greater than they'd previously thought,” LaBarre writes.

The move has received a mixed reaction publicly. GigaOm writer Mathew Ingram called the decision “both sad and wrong,” arguing that the publication should have made a greater effort to fix its reader comments section before closing it. Other sites like Poynter have linked to suggestions about giving the reader community more autonomy to moderate the comments section in order to quarantine disruptive commenters.

However, LaBarre says the site will not permanently block all reader feedback. For now, it will still accept and occasionally respond to user feedback through its social media accounts on sites like Twitter (where the site has nearly 200,000 followers) and Facebook. She also says it plans to open up reader comments sections “on select articles that lend themselves to vigorous and intelligent discussion.”

Nonetheless, it’s an interesting risk for the 141-year-old publication, as any news editor can explain that reader comments are often a big part of site’s reaching its monthly traffic goals.

And for an interesting counterpart, Scientific American recently published a blog post in July attempting to explain why we read reader comments even when we know the potential downsides.

NYC restaurants sued over tipping practice

Several New York City restaurants including Applebee’s, Olive Garden and Red Lobster, are being named in a lawsuit over alleged deceptive billing practices, "CBS This Morning" reports.

The network posted images of an Olive Garden check with a line for an “automatic gratuity” of 18 percent added to the price of a meal, as well as a place to add an additional tip, regardless of the number of diners. An Applebee's check added a 17 percent automatic gratuity, saying it was "payable at guest's discretion."

“They want to squeeze that extra little dollar that they can out of everybody,” Evan Spencer, the lawyer who brought the $5.5 billion class action lawsuit, told CBS, adding, “A tip and a gratuity are exactly the same thing,”

New York City law says restaurants may not add surcharges to listed prices except for groups of eight or more.

Darden Restaurants, which owns Olive Garden and Red Lobster, released a statement to CBS responding to the suit. “The automatic gratuity is a convenience for our guests," the statement said. "Our guests always have the option of adding to, reducing or completely deducting the automatic gratuity before paying their check.”

The big chains aren't the only ones adding on automatic tips. Tony restaurants like Per Se, Lavo and Morton's also work in an automatic tip, the food blog Grubstreet noted. The lawsuit could impact some 2,000 restaurants in New York City.

Ted Dimond, a tennis pro who brought the suit, told the New York Post he wants to see diners get back $50 plus $1,000 for "‘willful violations,’ where restaurants trick diners into adding a second tip when one is already included.

A Long Island man was arrested in 2004 for refusing to pay an 18 percent restaurant tip. But the local district attorney dropped the charge, Time magazine reported, saying tipping is at the diner’s discretion.

Texas gun range offers target practice from a helicopter

A rifleman demonstrates the helicopter target practice course. (helicoptersniper.com)The gun debate went to new heights in one Texas town, where the owners of a gun range are letting customers take part in a target practice from inside a helicopter.

"It's like the ultimate video game," Dan Claassen of Helicopter Sniper Adventure told local ABC affiliate WFAA.

And while the concept may sound extreme to some, Claassen says a number of safety precautions have been put into place.

"It's not like we're endangering anybody's life with our flight patterns or our techniques," he said. "Everything is totally safe in that regard."

It’s also entirely legal under Federal Aviation Administration and local county regulations.

Customers pay $795 to take part in the firefight flight, which includes a safety training class, awards ceremony and lunch. Well, and unlike an actual firefight, no returning fire. The individual flights are relatively short, lasting about 15 minutes per person. Still, that’s enough time to fire off an estimated 500 rounds of .233 semiautomatic rifle ammunition.

On the company's website, a video advertising the service says, "This weekend, have a few rounds with the boys."

A safety officer is onboard all flights.

"It's not like we're hitting this every day," Claassen told the station. "So it's not noise pollution. So there is no noise. It's the world safest and quietest helicopter."

Still, some neighbors in the small North Texas town of Aubrey say they were unaware of the airborne shoots until they literally heard the assault rifle fire raining down from above.

"The first time they were hovering right over our two acres, shooting at whatever," said local resident Michael Lauer. "You really didn't know were they shooting at me."
