"Contraction reminds me a little bit of Aesop's Fable..."
Broadcasting Major League Baseball for 55 years has given Detroit Tigers play by play man Ernie Harwell a prospective on America's pastime like no other. During one of the Tigers' trips to the Metrodome this Spring, we spoke with the Hall of Fame broadcaster about the state of the game and the Minnesota Twins.
MS: Comerica Park opened three years ago replacing Tiger Stadium. How important do you think it is for the Twin Cities to get a new ballpark, something similar to Comerica?
EH: I think it's important. I think the real answer though, is in winning.If the Twins won and played there at the Metrodome they would still continue to draw. You1ve got an economic problem where you don1t have a lot of sky-view boxes and all those amenities that come with a new ballpark, and I can understand the economics of that is much better. But, I think the basic in baseball is winning. The Twins have proven previously that if they win, people are going to come out there and pay the money. But, it would be nice to have a new ballpark.
MS: What are your reactions to contraction and the possibility that the Minnesota Twins might not be around?
EH: The part I didn't like about the contraction situation was the unsettled feeling that everybody got. You didn't know whether you were coming or going. Baseball couldn't tell anybody in any definite terms what would happen. Contraction reminds me a little bit of the Aesop's Fable where the rats were going to put a bell on the cat's tale. It's a great idea to do it, but nobody wants to do it! Contraction might be a pretty good idea, but what team are you going to pick to contract? That1s the tough part.
MS: You've said that what you like about (Twins broadcaster) Herb Carneal is his steadiness.
EH: Absolutely. He1s a wonderful performer. He has a high degree of consistency. He's always right on the game. He's got a passion and a love for it and he1s got a very fine voice. And, I think his descriptive powers are excellent. All that put together makes Herb Carneal a top announcer in my book.
MS: Do you have any Halsey Hall (former Twins broadcaster) stories?
EH: Halsey had a little bag that he would carry with him that had the little whiskey miniatures in it. He said "Well, you gotta be careful cause you might run into an election day somewhere where you can't get whiskey." He was a beauty.
MS: Talk about the Twins-Tigers rivalry and what you remember about the 1987 playoff series where the Twins upset the Tigers and eventually went on to win the World Series.
EH: That was a black mark on the Tigers' history. The Twins were the underdogs in that playoff series. I think [the Tigers] were sacheting into the playoffs thinking they would beat the Twins. The Twins had a much better series. They played very good ball and certainly deserved to beat the Tigers. And, then they went on to have a great World Series. That's what I remember about the rivalry. Gaetti was poison to the Tigers. Gagne did his job too. It was a good all around team that fought and scratched and deserved everything that they got.
MS: What does major league baseball need to do to get back to being America's true past time?
EH: I think the most important thing is to try to get harmony between the players union and the owners. Even when you don't have a strike, there seems to be always a threat of one. There's always talk about a lock-out or strike and people have an uneasiness about the game as long as that happens. If we could get together and let each side say 'we've got a great game, let's move forward by compromising a little bit', making a sacrifice on one side or the other and get it going. That worries me a lot more than the small market, big market and so forth or the haves and the have-nots. The haves and the have nots, that's existed forever. I remember back in the '30s when the season started in those 8-club leagues. We knew for instance in the American League that Washington, the Boston Red Sox, the Philadelphia Athletics and the St.Louis Browns didn't have a chance. Probably wouldn't even have a team that finished .500. Everybody accepted that then. Nobody worried about it. But, now because the money is so big and people concentrate on writing and talking about the money of the game and the financial side, I think it's been emphasized so much its become important. Probably too important.
A Case for Cooperstown:
Bert Blyleven
by Thomas Tuttle
Editor's note: This is part one of a two-part series, the story of Tony Oliva will appear in the Fall '02 issue.
Baseball is a game of numbers. The national pastime is more than that, certainly, but it is the numbers that tend to drive the inductions at Cooperstown, New York, home of the Baseball Hall of Fame. If a pitcher from this century wins 300 games, he is a lock for membership at the holiest of baseball shrines.
Of course, mere numbers don't tell all of the story. There is always more to a player's career than statistics. Bert Blyleven left the game after a 22-year career with 287 victories, a mere 13 short of 300. When you talk to people who had the privilege of seeing Bert Blyleven pitch one of his 60 shutouts, it's notjust the numbers, though formidable, that get talked about. It's about the men themselves and the way they played the game.
PITCHING DUTCHMAN
Bert Blyleven was born a Dutchman. Or more accurately, Bert Blyleven was the son of a powerful Dutchman, his hard-working, strong father brought the family to Canada and then the United States when Bert was a young boy. It was through his father that Bert became a fan of baseball.
"It was my dad who really taught me a great love for the baseball. He was a devout fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers when I was growing up, and many is the night when we wouldn't get to bed until the game had been decided. He loved those Dodger teams, and my father helped to ignite my passion for the game."
Blyleven didn't start to take the game seriously as a player until he was around 14 years old, and it wasn't until he was 16 or 17 that his focus started to narrow. He was a big, athletic kid, an admirer of Sandy Koufax, and while he was just starting to develop his famous curveball, it was his power that the scouts noticed first. Drafted by the Twins in the third round of the 1969 free agent draft, Blyleven spent that year mowing down minor-league hitters before moving to the big club in 1970, at the age of 19.
In fact, when Blyleven won 10 games in his rookie year, he became just the 25th teenager to win in double digits the first year in the major leagues. His curveball had become a hard-breaking weapon, and his fastball had movement as well as high velocity. He was on his way to becoming the Twins all-time leader in complete games (141), shutouts (29), and strikeouts (2,035).
Interestingly, almost two decades after being named the Sporting News Rookie Pitcher of the Year in '70, he was named the comeback player of the year by that same esteemed baseball publication for going 17-5 with the California Angels in 1989. That helps to shed light on the kind of pitcher Bert Blyleven was during his long big-league career: resilient, durable and a winner.
Says Twins general manager Terry Ryan, "He always wanted the ball and gave it his best shot, which was usually pretty darn good. He'd give you his 250-300 innings year after year, and he was very effective. That's the kind of stuff you don't see much any more, except from Clemens and a couple of others. I know that Clemens recently passed Blyleven's total of 287 victories. They don't seem to make 'em like that as much any more.2
"What really stands out for me," continued Ryan, "is the fact that he struck guys out the way he did. A remarkable achievement, and those are numbers that are not going anywhere. They will stay up there for a long, long time."
THROWING THE NUMBERS A CURVE
A very long time indeed. Besides Clemens, there's no active player near Blyleven's total of 3,701 strikeouts in his career, which places him fourth on the all-time list. Want some more numbers? How about 51 major-league games with 10 or more strikeouts, and eight seasons with more than 200 strikeouts, including six in a row from 1971-1976.
He had 25 complete games in 1973 and yet had a record of 20-17. That helps to explain his 287 wins (making him 24th all-time with no challengers in the foreseeable future) and 250 losses during his career. If Hall of Fame voters are challenged by the number of losses, they should note the words of Herb Carneal: "He lost more 1-0 games than anyone I have ever seen or heard of, and he lost a lot of one-run games in general. It was uncanny, but you do need a team to score runs for you or you're going to lose, no matter how well you pitch."
Indeed, of Blyleven's 250 losses, 74 were decided by one run and 41 were decided by two runs. One would think that with any kind of luck, or support, he could have found another 13 wins in there to get to the magical 300 mark. Carneal doesn't think the 300 wins should be critical in Blyleven's case. "To win 287 games is just a terrific accomplishment," notes the veteran broadcaster, with authority in his voice. "Think about it; that's in the top 25 of everybody who has ever pitched in the major leagues. The fact that he lost so many close games reinforces the point."
"Some have said it took him a long time to get to 287 wins," Carneal adds. "So what? It took Hank Aaron longer than Babe Ruth to get 715 homers, if you want to look at things that way. But,that shouldn't matter. In baseball, longevity is a good thing."
Other Blyleven numbers (as Twins broadcaster John Gordon said, "Look at his numbers!"): 17 seasons with ten or more wins, including ten consecutive from 1970-1979; in ten of those seasons he had 15 or more wins, including five consecutive from 1971-75. He had two ten-game winning streaks during his career, one spanning the 1971-72 season and the other in 1989. Blyleven threw a no-hitter against the California Angels in September of 1977 and had five one-hitters, nine two-hitters and twelve three-hitters lifetime.
Three times in his career he went 11 innings, losing twice (not a surprise, given the number of close games he lost). He became a 20-game winner in 1973 at age 22, the 13th-youngest in modern baseball history. You want endurance? He had the fifth lowest ERA of his career 17 years after he won those 20 games, when he won 17 in 1989. Blyleven led the American League in shutouts three times (1973, 1985, and 1989); he led in innings pitched twice (1985 and '86). He is ninth all-time in games started, ninth all-time in shutouts, and 13th all-time in innings pitched.
And, as noted earlier, he was fourth all-time in strikeouts because Bert Blyleven, who could throw 90-plus heat at the batter, also had one of the meanest curve balls of all time. The break was hard and it was large, frequently coming at a right-handed batters shoulder, and then curving while dropping to the hitters ankle.
"His curve was one of those nasty things with the real sharp break," recalled Tom Mee. "It was one of the greatest strikeout pitches I've ever seen," said long-time Detroit announcer Ernie Harwell. "Like they say, it broke off the table," says Herb Carneal. "When it was working, which it usually was, the hitters needed some luck to get a good swing at it," remembered ex-Twins outfielder and Blyleven teammate Dan Gladden.
PITCHER PERFECT
And remember this: Blyleven was a world champion twice, with the Pirates in 1979 and with the Twins in 1987. He played a critical role in helping each team to the title. "Bert was a winner," says the Twins Ryan. "He was a key player on championship teams; he elevated those clubs to be the best. That is a big part of who he was. A great pitcher, but a leader and a winner, too."
How does Blyleven feel about all the Cooperstown talk? "I'm flattered to be in consideration; there is no honor in baseball like it. But I'm truly grateful to be considered for the Hall, to be mentioned in the same sentence as some of the greatest players in the game. I think I have more appreciation today for the fact that I played with and against such great competitors, guys like Willie Stargell and Harmon Killebrew and Tony Oliva, to name just a few.
"What an education it was. I will say that if I'm going to make the Hall, it would sure be special to make it while my father could enjoy it. I would like for him to see that day, if and when it comes.
"We had a lot of fun playing the game, and I was able to experience so many different outstanding players and people. I really worked at being a student of the game. It took a lot of learning, but it was all a great experience. That's why I feel the gratitude. It's been a privilege to be a part of it all."

In 1995, twin sisters Kelly and Coco Miller led Rochester- -Mayo to the Minnesota state basketball championship in their sophomore season. It was around that time that plans for a women's professional basketball league with the backing of the NBA began to take shape. In 1997, Kelly and Coco wrapped up their high school careers by once again propelling Rochester-Mayo to the state basketball title. A few months later the WNBA tipped off its inaugural season and in doing so, gave young girls a chance to dream the dream that previously had been reserved for their male counterparts, the dream of playing professional basketball.
SHOW ON THE ROAD
Coco and Kelly still had college to think about and in 1997 the idea of two nationally recruited basketball blue chippers staying home and playing for the Lady Gophers was about as likely as a kid from say, North Dakota scoring a goal to win the National Championship for the Gopher Hockey team. So, the Millers did the sensible thing and took their show on the road to the University of Georgia in the prestigious Southeastern Conference. Coco explains, "We definitely looked at Minnesota. It would have been nice to stay home because Minnesota has great support for basketball. Georgia provided better opportunities for us at the time." One of the opportunities Georgia provided the sisters was a Final Four appearance in 1999. The decision to attend Georgia had an added benefit according to Kelly, "The SEC was a very tough conference and that helped prepare us for this league."
"This league" would be the WNBA, where in April of 2001, Kelly and Coco were drafted in the first round. Kelly went to the Charlotte Sting as the sixth pick while Coco ended up with the Mystics in Washington, D.C. as the ninth overall pick. The dream had been realized. Coco and Kelly Miller were professional basketball players. Then came the hard part. Rookies have a lot to deal with in their first season. The elevated level of play, the lifestyle change, the travel, and the expectations are all part of the adjustment. Kelly and Coco had the added challenge of having to live apart from each other for the first time in their lives
"GO-TO GIRLS"
Then there came the basketball side of things. That too, has been different. Coco and Kelly have been starters throughout their careers. It is hard for most rookies to log much playing time in any professional sport. That is especially the case in the WNBA where the relatively short, compact season makes every game a must win, leaves little time for practice and even less time for experimenting with rookies.
These "go-to" girls had to go to the end of the bench. Coco and Kelly have taken their apprenticeship in stride and their rookie season yielded personal stats that were as alike as the sisters themselves. They averaged between seven and nine minutes and around 2 points per game, hardly the gaudy numbers they have become accustomed to, but they are not at all discouraged. Kelly: "I just took last season as a learning experience. The competition is great and I love that." Coco: "It was tough. I would have liked more playing time but I learned a lot last year. It made me a better player."
Better players are something the WNBA has plenty of, a fact not lost on the Miller sisters. Kelly: "In the professional game the players are bigger and every player on the floor is good." Some of the women they are now playing with, and against, are players they considered heroes not too long ago. Mystic forward Chamique Holdsclaw, one of the leagues marquee players, has even offered guidance. Coco: "Last year Chamique took time to show me some things, little things. Playing with someone of her caliber definitely raises the level of my game." Kelly counts having to check Houston's Sheryl Swoopes as a highlight of her first season.
As far as their respective teams, Coco and the Mystics struggled to a 10-22 mark while in Charlotte, Kelly continued to win in 2001. Losing was yet another new experience for Coco: "It was difficult because I wanted to help the team but really wasn't given much of a chance to get in there and contribute." Kelly and the Sting managed to buzz all the way to the WNBA finals.
As for Coco and Kelly's parents, Marv and Kathy Miller, watching the girls play is no longer as simple as looking out the window at the driveway. They became accustomed to driving all over Minnesota and the country to watch their daughters play in AAU tournaments. They traveled to many of their college games as well, a task made easier when their daughters were on the same team. Kelly: "They try to get to as many as possible, but they have to catch most of them on ESPN." Fortunately, Charlotte and Washington are only six hours apart.
Having won a state title as high school sophomores, and reaching the NCAA Final Four as college sophomores, the Miller sisters are understandably optimistic about their sophomore season in the WNBA. They spent most of the off-season working out back home in Rochester and sharing a common goal for the 2002 season, more playing time.
Coco and Kelly Miller enjoyed and endured significant changes both on and off-the-court in 2001. Rookies no more, they can now begin to settle into careers in their chosen profession. Secure in the knowledge that no matter what lies ahead, at the ripe old age of 23, they have made what was once a truly impossible dream come true. Kelly: "Growing up we thought that after college we might be done because there was no professional league in the U.S. at the time. It was a dream of ours to play professionally so we are just having a great time right now." You go girls.


I'm not gay, but if I was, I would so want to do teh Nuge after watching this.
I'm pretty sure some of them are on the left politically. Maybe I'm wrong about that. Maybe they're all vocal libertarians. We should be so lucky — I've never seen that kind of libertarian presence on political issues before. Based on the number of libertarians I've seen expressing opinions about politics in the last few decades, I suspect that's not the case. I suspect many are liberal or left, and cottoned onto Paul solely because of his anti-war position.That means Ron Paul is diametrically opposed to many of their most fervent programs.
I think it is the Truthers. Really.
Beyond anything else, they are totally obsessed with the idea of False Flag Operations. Insanely, completely, John Hinkley after Jodie Foster obsessed. To these people, everything is a false flag operation. 9/11, JFK, Katrina, The View, everything. Every conspiracy theory family has a theme. The UFO abduction guy's theme is "loss of privacy." The JFK guy's theme is "subversion of democracy." The Illuminati guy's theme is "suppression of knowledge." If you look at any of these conspiracy families, you will see the theme seeping into everything. The UFO guy sees government agents invading his privacy too. The JFK guy sees some secret cabal rigging all the elections. The Illuminati guy sees all kinds of things that he knows that no one else gets because someone is calling it ridiculous.
And the Truthers see False Flags everywhere. I think that a bunch of people independently came to the same conclusion at the same time — that the only way to get The Truth out would be to get a Truther in the White House. And if there was anyone on the ballot that wasn't a Truther, The Man would get that person elected. Therefore, they need a Truther on both sides, and the way to do that was to run their own False Flag Operation on the Republican side.
A Democrat Truther is no problem. What they need is a Republican Truther. And frankly, the only one even attempting to make a run at it is Ron Paul. Therefore, Ron Paul is a vital component of their Serbian Double-Bluff False Flag Operation. They are already all over the internet. They are centrally organized. And they are batshit conniving cuckoo.
It is the only way to explain the cartoonishness of the support we are seeing, even right now in the comments of Q and O.

Contempt of Cop or Contempt of War?
How far does someone have to go to get charged with treason in this country?
If he was singled out because he was a soldier, and then beaten to the point that he was combat ineffective when he was slated for deployment, then that is giving aid to the enemy and levying war on the United States.


Why use TestFabrics skeins rather than winding your own? Testfabrics is great for sample skeins because – unlike hand-wound skeins – the weight of their skeins is very accurate and consistent. In earlier samples with hand-wound skeins, I found that skeins of the same length could vary as much as 20% in weight – from 4.0 to 5.8 grams for a skein targeted to be 5g. This makes it hard to measure dye concentrations accurately. Testfabrics' 10 gram skeins weigh 10.00 g +/- .005g according to my (calibrated) scales.
Label each skein with the dye colors and %WOG to be used in the first dyebath using a flagging tape "bracelet" run through the center of the skein, labeled with Avery Ultraduty GHS Chemical labels, which are waterproof labels designed for extreme conditions. (You can boil these labels in soapy water and they will not come off.) Make sure the labels are wrapped around the flagging tape on both sides so the flagging tape won't peel away.
To make tracking the dyes and concentrations easier, I color-coded the labels when printing them (on a laser printer; if you have an inkjet, test it to make sure it doesn't bleed when dyeing). The outer ring indicates the color of dye that was used. The inner color shows the concentration of the dye. This made it easier to pick out colors at a glance.
Gather individual skeins in groups of five. Tie each group of five together with a flagging tape "bracelet" passed through each of the individual . Group together five groups of five skeins, and tie together with another flagging tape "bracelet". You should now have a group of 25 skeins, each tied together with a flagging-tape bracelet.
Scour batches of 50 skeins in a solution of 4 gallons hot water + 1 teaspoon Synthrapol. Soak for at least 1 hour.
Rinse skeins in 2 changes of warm water. Skeins should be at 80-90 degrees at the start of the dyebath.
250g x (%WOG of dye)/100 = amount of dye to be used.
Example: at 0.06% WOG, you would need 250 x 0.06/100 = 0.15 grams of dye.
When working with small quantities of dye (as in the example above), it is easier to use stock solutions. Mix 1g of dye into 100g of water. Add 100x the amount of stock solution as you would have added dye.
Example: at 0.06% WOG, you need 0.15g dye, so you would add 100 x 0.15 = 15 ml (1 ml= 1 gram) of stock solution.
Pour 7500 mL of water, at about 85-90F, into bucket.
Add pasted-up dye and stir, washing out container in which you pasted up the dye to make sure you have all the dye.
Weigh out appropriate amount of soda ash for dyebath (according to the preceding table) and mix in 150 mL of water. Do NOT add to dyebath yet.
0 minutes – Add skeins to dyebath. Lift skeins in and out of dyebath several times to make sure the water penetrates through the entire skein.
5 minutes – Begin "rotating skeins". Lift the bunch of skeins partially out of the dyebath. Pick one skein out of the bunch and rotate it around its flagging-tape "bracelet" so the bracelet falls in a different place on the skein. (If not rotated, the skein will compress where it touches the flagging tape, and the skein will dye unevenly). When done, lift and lower the skeins in and out of the dyebath to encourage circulation of the dye.
10 minutes – lift skeins in and out of dyebath to circulate dye. Rotate skein "bracelets" to ensure even dyeing.
15 minutes – lift skeins in and out of dyebath to circulate dye. Rotate skein "bracelets" to ensure even dyeing.
20 minutes – Remove the skeins from the dyebath and add â…" (50 ml) of the soda ash solution. Stir dyebath. Lift skeins in and out of dyebath, then rotate skein "bracelets".
30 minutes – add â…" (50ml) of soda ash solution, circulate by lifting and lowering skeins. Rotate skein bracelets.
100 minutes – remove skeins from dyebath.
Soak each batch separately for several hours in HOT water with 1 tbsp of Synthrapol per 4 gallons of water.
Spin out skeins in washing machine (NO AGITATION!).
Rinse in hot water, soaking for at least 1 hour.
Rinse in hot water again (1 hour soak) to make sure there is no further bleeding.
This method can also be used with stock solutions of dye, salt, etc. if that's easier. With lower concentrations of dye, stock solutions may be more accurate.
At the end of the first dyebath, you should have 10 groups of 25 skeins of each, one group for each concentration. Each 25-skein group should have been divided into five groups of five.
Pick out the concentrations for the light cube: 0%, 0.06%, 0.12%, 0.25%, 0.5%. You now have 5 groups of 25 skeins each.
Split each group of 25 into its five-skein subgroups, and create new groups of 25 using one five-skein subgroup from each concentration. You now have new sets of 25 skeins, each of which contains 5 skeins of each concentration in the light cube.
Label the skeins with the concentrations for dye #2.
Dye the light cube skein groups in 5 dye baths, using the light cube concentrations: 0%, 0.06%, 0.12%, 0.25%, 0.5%, using the method in the Dyebath section.
Dye the dark cube skein groups in 5 dye baths, using the dark cube concentrations: 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 4%, using the method in the Dyebath section.
Break up these groups and rearrange to form new groups of 25, each group containing one skein from each of the groups in the table. You should now have 25 skeins containing every possible combination of concentrations for dyes #1 and #2.
Rearrange all the skeins in the dark cube in the same way.
Label the skeins with the concentrations for dye #3.
Once the samples have been dyed in all three dyebaths, wind the yarn (in a single flat layer) onto 1.375″ x 2.5″ cards cut from conservation mat board and store in tobacco card sleeves (20/page).

Q: Why can't i exit from shellcode with a syscall? I try to make a Programm where you put in some assembled assembly in hex and run it.
With simple instructions like int3 it works, but when I try to exit from the programm with a syscall it doesnt work.
I assembled it with rasm2
mov eax, 1
mov ebx, 12
int 0x80

and then put it as an argument ./Programm b801000000bb0c000000cd80 1
but i get a segfault.
Here is my code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>

char *base16dec(char *b16str) {
  size_t stingrlength = strlen(b16str);
  char *decodedstr = malloc(stingrlength / 2);
  for (size_t i = 0; i < stingrlength; i += 2) {
    u_int8_t num = 0;
    char stringIn[3];
    stringIn[0] = b16str[i];
    stringIn[1] = b16str[i+1];
    stringIn[2] = 0;
    sscanf(stringIn, "%hhx", &num);
    decodedstr[i/2] = (char) num;
  }
  return decodedstr;
}

this decodes the hex string
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  char *dirstr = "XXXXXX";
  char dir[7];
  strcpy(dir, dirstr);
  int fd = mkstemp(dir);
  if (fd == -1) {
    dirstr = "/tmp/XXXXXX";
    char dir[12];
    strcpy(dir, dirstr);
    fd = mkstemp(dir);
  }
  unlink(dir);

this creates the tmp file where the assembly is stored
  char *stringIn;
  if (argc == 2) {
    stringIn = malloc(strlen(argv[1]));
    strcpy(stringIn, argv[1]);
  } else if (argc == 3) {
    u_int8_t num = 0;
    sscanf(argv[2], "%hhu", &num);
    if (num == 1) {
      char *done = base16dec(argv[1]);
      stringIn = malloc(strlen(done));
      strcpy(stringIn, done);
    } else {
      stringIn = malloc(strlen(argv[1]));
      strcpy(stringIn, argv[1]);
    }
  } else {
    stringIn = malloc(1024);
    scanf("%s", stringIn);
    char *done = base16dec(stringIn);
    stringIn = malloc(strlen(done));
    strcpy(stringIn, done);
  }

this parses and copies the input to stringIn
  ftruncate(fd, strlen(stringIn));
  u_int8_t *code = mmap(NULL, strlen(stringIn), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE , fd, 0);

this expands the tmp file and makes it executable and creates a pointer to it named code
  for (int i = 0; i < 1024; i++) {
    code[i] = (u_int8_t) stringIn[i];
  }

this copies the assembly bytes into code
  #if __x86_64__
  __asm__(
    "mov %0, %%rbx\n"

I tried to copy 0 using strcpy

A: Since this is a shellcode you can't have null bytes. In your code you have 2 movs with immediates that are padded to 32-bits
mov eax, 1
mov ebx, 12

Which encodes as B801000000BB0C000000, when C hits the null bytes it thinks the string has ended so it only ends up copying part of the instruction and then it executes garbage.
Instead you'll need to use:
xor eax, eax
inc eax
xor ebx, ebx
mov bl, 12

This will provide the values you want for your system call and does not encode as any null bytes.

Calvin Harris Sued By Neighbor For Neglecting To Fix Dangerous Issues With His Bel-Air Home
No Comments on Calvin Harris Sued By Neighbor For Neglecting To Fix Dangerous Issues With His Bel-Air Home
Calvin Harris is being sued by a neighbor in Bel-Air, California for failing to fix issues with his home that are allegedly putting her and others in peril.
According to the suit obtained by TMZ, Harris' Bel-Air home has a faulty pipeline that is steadily leaking sludgy water from his home and traveling downhill, coating a driveway and access road to her house. Apparently it's so bad that car tires will even spin in the mess.
Harris has reportedly been cited twice by the city for the issue, but all he did was lay down some sandbags to block the flow — a stop gap, at best.
In addition to the faulty pipeline, the claim also states that Harris has major fissures in his retaining wall, putting her own property and safety at risk as he lives downhill from his home.
The claimant is suing for damages for mental and emotional distress, and loss of property values.

Meek Mill Attorney Files Motion To Toss Out Sentence
No Comments on Meek Mill Attorney Files Motion To Toss Out Sentence
Meek Mill's attorney has filed legal docs for his controversial sentence to be thrown out.
Since Judge Genece Brinkley handed down the sentencing last week, the Philly rapper has been fighting for his freedom and his supporters have been outraged about it. TMZ reported that Meek Mill does not just want his sentencing to be overturned, he also wants his entire probation to be terminated. In his legal docs, Meek is arguing that the 2-4 years sentence is tainted by a vendetta that the judge has against him. The rapper also filed a motion to have the judge booted from the case.
The Dreamchaser rapper's attorney, Joe Tacopina, also argued in both motion that the two arrests earlier this year that the artist was found guilty of violating his probation were all dismissed from his record. His probation officer also testified that he has responded well to probation. Regarding getting his probation be terminated all entire, that will be a long shot, but the rapper argued that since going on probation, he has matured, become a responsible citizen and a father, and also acquired a profession as a musician. He also wants a judge to grant him time served and release him from prison.
Meek Mill is currently serving 2-4 years in a state prison for probation violation. According to the judge, the MC violated the terms of his probation by getting arrested twice this year. One time in March when he allegedly got into a scuffle at the St. Louis airport, which he says he was breaking up a fight, and another time during the summer when he was arrested in New York City for popping a wheelie in the street on his motorcycle. Meek Mill previously violated his probation in 2015 and was placed on three months house arrest for it.
The prosecutor and his probation officer both recommend no prison time for this case, but the judge ignored their recommendation and sentenced him to 2-4 years. His attorney argued that the judge is carrying an old grudge and even once okayed him to work with a convicted felon, Charlie Mack.

Meek Mill Gets 4 Years Prison Sentence For Probation Violation
No Comments on Meek Mill Gets 4 Years Prison Sentence For Probation Violation
Meek Mill violated his probation and now he is heading back to prison for up to four years.
The Philadelphia rapper turned up to court today with his attorney, Brian McMonagle, where he learned his fate. Meek Mill has been having a string of legal victories over the past couple of weeks, but today his luck ran out when a judge ruled that he violated his probation when he was recently arrested in New York City. Although he struck a deal with prosecutors to avoid jail time, Meek still found himself in deeper legal problems with his probation.
The Dreamchasers rapper was sentenced to 2-4 years in a state prison, TMZ reported. He also violated his probation for an alleged fight at St. Louis airport. In that case too, the charge was dismissed. Meek Mill has been on probation for a 2009 gun and drug charge. As part of his probation, he cannot have any runnings with law enforcement including getting arrested.
Although the charges were dismissed, the judge ruled that the arrest alone is a violation of his probation. In 2015, Meek Mill violated his probation when he traveled out of state to an award show with Nicki Minaj without permission. He got off on just three months of house arrest. This time he might not be so lucky and could serve up to four years of prison time.
Meek Mill has been working hard to rehabilitate his image in recent years through a number of charitable initiatives and at one point he even announced on social media that he will stop recording music with violent lyrics. That effort was clearly not enough to get him into good grace with the judge. Since the news broke, he has been getting some support from his celebrity peers. It's not clear when his sentence will start.

The Weeknd Pulls Plug On Selena Gomez Relationship Before Bieber
No Comments on The Weeknd Pulls Plug On Selena Gomez Relationship Before Bieber
The Weeknd has reportedly ended his relationship with Selena Gomez from before the actress and Justin Bieber started hooking up again.
News of the couple's demise came last weekend just days after she was spotted hanging out with her on-again off-again ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber. The Weeknd fans were quick to blame Justin Bieber for the breakup, but it turns out that the pop star had nothing to do with it except the fact that he make a good rebound for Gomez. TMZ reported that the XO singer pulled the plug on the relationship a few weeks ago after the two grew apart.
Their relationship has been fizzling out since around summer mostly due to his extensive touring and her shooting and new movie. They started talking a lot less and spending less time together. Sources say he called her up a few weeks ago to explain his stance on the relationship and why he is breaking up with her. The Weeknd felt like he was enjoying single life a lot more than he thinks and the relationship was putting a strain on him. The two have remained friendly since their split but with Justin Bieber coming back in the picture that will likely change.
Abel was spotted last night in the club grinding on a mystery female so he has been handling it pretty well.

Blac Chyna Sues Entire Kardashian Clan For Canceled TV Show
No Comments on Blac Chyna Sues Entire Kardashian Clan For Canceled TV Show
Blac Chyna is suing the entire Kardashian clan for canceling her TV show with Rob Kardashian "Rob & Chyna."
The second season of the show was set to air on E! network, but it's not happening, according to a TMZ report. This feud between Chyna and the Kardashians is far from over. The celebrity socialite is suing the family for allegedly using their influence over the E! network to have her show booted. Sources inside the network are calling her claims bogus and pointed to a number of issues with her show including their inability to film because she refused to be in the same room as Rob.
Back in July, Blac Chyna got out a restraining order against Rob Kardashian claiming that her baby daddy physically abused her. The network insider also claimed that E! was unhappy about the ratings for the first season of the show and that forms part of the reason for the cancellation. Chyna is also suing Rob for allegedly snatching her phone and knocking her to the ground in a rage. She also claimed that he once tore down a bedroom door to get to her and even threatened to kill himself on multiple occasions.
Blac Chyna presented a number of text message evidence to support her story including messages where Rob Kardashian repeatedly told her that he would kill himself. "I will kill myself just to show U how serious I was about u and all this," one of the messages read. In his defense, Rob Kardashian accuses Blac Chyna of cheating on him with multiple men including her baby daddy Tyga. Back in July, he stunned everyone when he leaked a number of nude photos and videos of Chyna on Instagram while exposing the men she has been cheating on him with. We will be watching closely to see how far her lawsuit against the Kardashians goes.

Meek Mill Scores Legal Victory In Assault Case Dismissed
No Comments on Meek Mill Scores Legal Victory In Assault Case Dismissed
Meek Mill scored his second legal victory this month after getting his airport assault case dismissed.
This is the second W for the Philly rapper in October in the courts. Earlier this month, he struck a deal in a traffic case in New York City which sees him walking away with just community service. Back in March of this year, he was slapped with a misdemeanor assault charge in St. Louis after getting into an altercation with a fan who claimed that he just wanted to take a picture with the rapper.
Just like his NYC traffic case, Meek Mill struck a deal with prosecutors which will see him doing some more community service, TMZ reported. His high profile lawyer, Joe Tacopina, confirmed the news yesterday. For the traffic case, Meek will have that record wiped clean from his name, as part of the deal he struck.
The Dreamchaser rapper is looking to put all of his legal troubles behind him so he can clean up his image to attract more corporate deals, or perhaps he just doesn't want them hanging over his head. Meek Mill is currently working on some new music but he has yet to announced any new albums or mixtapes.

Dr. Phil McGraw accidentally hit a man with his car and the person is threatening to sue him.
Police confirmed to E! News that the "minor traffic collision" took place on a crosswalk in Universal City in the Los Angeles area on Friday morning and that no one was transported to a hospital.

I meet with my Lawyer Monday.. This is a 100% winnable vase since Dr PHIL ran a stop sign and was in the wrong lane of traffic."

"Cops told me he needed to stay until cops came and that he should of called himself, and the fact a shuttle driver stopped for me and he passed the driver and I even shouted and stuck my [hand] out, him being oblivious to all this means he either was on his phone or just straight hit me knowing my obvious presence and didn't care, either way he broke traffic laws which resulted in him hitting me."

Weinstein has not commented.
TMZ reported that day that Weinstein had completed a one-week outpatient program to treat psychological issues and was leaving the state.

Boosie Badazz Brother Dodges Jail Time For Stealing Money From Rapper
No Comments on Boosie Badazz Brother Dodges Jail Time For Stealing Money From Rapper
Boosie Badazz brother avoids jail time for allegedly stealing $300,000 from the rapper.
A couple months ago, the Baton Rouge rapper posted a video on social media venting about his family member who stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from him. Turns out he went ahead and filed charges against his brother, Taquari Hatch, for allegedly siphoning $361,000 from his account. TMZ reported that the district attorney has decided not to file charges despite cops busting him for stealing the money.
Taquari Hatch was arrested and charged with fraud and identity theft after he allegedly posed as Boosie and authorized several wire transfers. Boosie brother has maintained his innocence and now the D.A. is siding with him and not file any charges due to sufficient evidence.
Taquari posted a video responding to the allegations saying that he has his piece of mind because he is innocent. "So the last thing is like, we see how social media trials played out all the time," he said. "But trolling, all trolls that don't bother me all of that sh*t I see it all the time. There is no piece of mind like knowing that you're innocent. You can't buy that, can't nobody hook you up with that, your influence can't get that. Knowing that you're innocent is piece of mind that is priceless, and that is what I got in this situation."
He also added that he will need a little more time to fully clear his name.

Nelly Rape Case Cops Still Investigating After Accuser Drops Case
No Comments on Nelly Rape Case Cops Still Investigating After Accuser Drops Case
Nelly's rape accuser has dropped her case against him but cops are still investigating the alleged crime.
This means that Nelly is not fully off the hook yet. Last week, the rapper's accuser revealed that she will stop pursuing the case against "Country Grammar" star because she can't go up against a celebrity who has unlimited resources. She is also refusing to testify in the case. Despite her noncooperation, cops are still actively investigating the case.
Auburn PD is not letting the case go and plans to present the prosecutor with evidence in the coming week, TMZ reported. So it will now be up to the prosecutor to decide if he wants to file charges against the rap star. Last weekend, Nelly performed in South Florida with T.I. where he was seen in good spirit as if a weight has been lifted off his shoulder. Nevertheless, his attorney, Scott Rosenblum, says he is confident that the case will be closed base on the evidence presented or lack thereof. "I would expect the police to do their due diligence," he added.
While Nelly can breathe a sigh of relief from the accuser refusal to cooperate with police, he is still not completely off the hook. If the prosecutor decides to file rape charges against him, it means that he will have to stand trial and at the very least that will taint his brand. During a rant on Twitter last week, Nelly indicated that he would explore legal options against his accuser for defamation and for damaging the reputation of his good name. It's still not clear if he will still pursue that option. At the very least he wants this whole case to go away.
Nelly is currently touring the U.S. with Florida Georgia Line band and was set for a performance in Washington at the time of his arrest.

Nelly Accuser Claims Rapper Rape Her Without Using Condom
No Comments on Nelly Accuser Claims Rapper Rape Her Without Using Condom
Nelly rape case just keeps getting deeper with his accuser claiming that he raped her without a condom.
The rap legend was arrested on Saturday night after a 21-year-old female from Seattle, Washington filed a police report claiming that he raped her on his tour bus. Nelly has denied the allegation claiming that he is being blackmailed, but now the alleged rape victim is making more serious charges by claiming that he forced her to have sex with him without using protection.
The victim says that she met Nelly and company at a club in Washington where she and her friends partied with him. She said that she drank too much alcohol and felt tipsy afterward. She says that the rapper then invited her to an after party and then to his tour bus and she went. That's when she said Nelly got antsy with her and forced her to have sex with him without using a condom. She claimed that she told him no and then he said shut up and do it.
The 21-year-old female then claimed that a woman came and kicked her off the bus and threw a $100 at her. She said that Nelly even offered her money and she declined it. Nelly attorney, Scott Rosenblum, says the victim is lying and he has several witnesses who will show that she has no credibility. Scott Rosenblum told TMZ that the victim is looking for money, fame, and notoriety and that is the reason why she publicized her story.
Nelly was arrested Saturday for second-degree rape, but he revealed on Twitter today that he was never charged with any crimes and cops are currently investigating the case, which means charges could come later. "To be absolutely clear. I have not been charged with a crime therefore no bail was required. I was released, pending further investigation," he wrote on Twitter.

Jhene Aiko and Producer Dot Da Genius Finalized Divorce
No Comments on Jhene Aiko and Producer Dot Da Genius Finalized Divorce
Jhene Aiko and producer Dot Da Genius are officially divorced which means Big Sean is now free to marry her..
The former couple finalized their divorce recently after reaching a financial settlement, TMZ reported. The R&B singer and the hip hop producer were married for 11 months until Big Sean swoop in last year and scooped her up. The couple didn't have any kids so their divorce wasn't that complicated, although their financial settlement was not disclosed. There were no spousal support, so their financial settlement was a one off offer.
Jhene Aiko split from Dot Da Genius came last year shortly after she and Big Sean kissed on stage. There were some reports that she cheated on the producer. She denied the rumors, but then filed for divorce in August 2016. There were also some reports that Dot Da Genius had physically abused the singer and that's the main reason for their split. The producer denied the allegations, but Aiko might have confirmed the reports on Twitter.
"Never let a man disrespect u in any way… I only cheated myself. so glad to be free from all the drugs, depression and confrontation," she wrote on Twitter. Dot also released a statement addressing the abuse allegations saying that it's not in his nature.

Young Thug Arrested Charged With Felony Drug & Gun Possession
No Comments on Young Thug Arrested Charged With Felony Drug & Gun Possession
Young Thug is facing a mountain of new legal problems that could send him to prison or at the very least earn him some probation time.
The Atlanta rapper was pulled over in Brookhaven, Georgia yesterday. TMZ reported that cops searched his Maybach after smelling marijuana and came up with a small quantity of the drug, two guns and $50,000 cash. Young Thug is currently sitting in a jail cell awaiting his first court hearing where he will know his fate.
So far we know that he has been charged with felony drug possession and could see more charges being tacked on for felony gun possession. There were two other men in the car with, so that could work in his favor if those two men take the fall for him. Cops say that they pulled him over because of tinted windows.
Back in January, an arrest warrant was issued for Young Thug's arrest for a no-show in court for a window tint case. In April, he also dodged charges for allegedly slapping a female outside of a nightclub in Atlanta. So for the entire year, he has been dealing with legal troubles and this new round just adds to more problems for Jefferey.
Young Thug has a new mixtape out now titled "Young Martha" with DJ Carnage. The project was released on September 22 and features guest appearances from Meek Mill and Shakka. He is also working on a new album due later this year, so this time behind bars is likely slowing down the production process. Earlier this month, Thugger teased a new single with Future on Instagram that will be featured on his upcoming album. He didn't reveal the title of the track, but it sounds like its fire. Thug also has a hot new single "Pere" with Nigerian pop star Davido and Rae Sremmurd out now.

Kylie Jenner Pregnant With Travis Scott Baby Couple Expecting A Girl
No Comments on Kylie Jenner Pregnant With Travis Scott Baby Couple Expecting A Girl
Kylie Jenner is pregnant with Travis Scott baby and the couple is expecting a baby girl.
There have been rumors that Kylie, 20, is pregnant for months now and it turns out that those chatters are true. TMZ broke the story on Friday that the reality star is expecting her first child with Travis Scott. Sources say both Jenner and Travis Scott have been telling their friends about the pregnancy and even told some folks that they are expecting a girl. Neither of them have confirmed the reports, but photos have surfaced online of the makeup mogul looking pretty knocked up.
The below photo was posted by Kylie Jenner on her SnapChat on Friday. Of course, she could just be trolling the news that she is pregnant or perhaps she really is, time will take care of all the doubts. She is clearly wearing baggy cloth which is only fueling the pregnancy rumors more. Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott have been dating for a few months now following her split with Tyga earlier this year. Paparazzi caught up with King Gold Chain in Los Angeles today and asked him about the pregnancy and he was just tight-lipped. Can't blame him for that because the moment he says something is the moment he makes tabloid headlines.
Tyga has been dating Kylie Jenner since she was 17 and kept their relationship under wraps. There are even some talks on Twitter that she might be pregnant for Tyga. That would be on a whole new level of scandal. She will likely film her pregnancy for a reality show and make millions off it and you can't blame her because she is a rating magnet. Some folks on Instagram are even suggesting that Kylie Jenner may be the mysterious surrogate that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are using for their third child.

DMX Cops Deal On House Arrest But Must Enter Drug Rehab
No Comments on DMX Cops Deal On House Arrest But Must Enter Drug Rehab
DMX desperately want to be able to travel and perform on gigs so he cop a deal to be free of house arrest but in exchange, he will have to enter a drug rehabilitation program.
The rap icon legal troubles are still far from over since he is facing multiple charges for tax evasion. He was placed under house arrest earlier this month after failing at least four drug tests, hence all the more reasons for drug rehab. TMZ reported that a judge has signed off on an inpatient treatment program for DMX's substance abuse problems.
X will still need permission to travel outside of the state of New York, but if the treatment facility is outside of the state then he can travel there freely. The rapper's lawyer, Murray Richman, agrees with the judge saying that DMX drug addiction has become impossible to manage and he needs help. This will not be the first time the former Ruff Ryder emcee is getting treatment for substance abuse, but we all sure it will be the last. In April of this year, the rapper checked himself into rehab following a mysterious medical problem. Sources say he had overdosed on drug and collapse. Seems that rehab didn't help him back then because just this month he failed four drug test in one day where drugs such as marijuana and cocaine were found in his system.
DMX has pleaded not guilty to the tax charges and if convicted he could serve some time in prison. X is reportedly working on a new album but there is no word yet on the release date or the title. Earlier this year Swizz Beatz confirmed that he has been in the studio with the legendary rapper working on a new project. But it seems his drug addiction problems may have played a role in the delay of the project.

Sean Kingston Want Retrial Judge Issues Arrest Warrant In Jewelry Case
No Comments on Sean Kingston Want Retrial Judge Issues Arrest Warrant In Jewelry Case
Sean Kingston says he is far from being broke but his legal troubles just keep piling up, in fact a warrant is now out for his arrest.
The reggae pop singer is asking a judge for a retrial after a warrant was issued for his arrest in his jewelry case. In stead of going to jail, Sean Kingston wants a retrial, TMZ reported. Back in December, Kingston was ordered by a judge to pay a Florida jeweler $44,000 for which he agreed to pay for some expensive jewelries her took.
Sean Kingston wasn't forthcoming with the payment, so a judge issued a warrant for his arrest. The "Beautiful Girl" singer filed some new legal documents telling the court that he wasn't aware of the order and that he thought that the papers that he got was for another jewelry case, so he pretty much ignored it. He also said that he regret his action and is now ready to take responsibility. He is asking the judge to cut him some slack because he is experiencing some financial difficulties and he is representing himself because he can't afford an attorney.
Kingston also said in his legal docs that he recently has some health problems and was assaulted and robbed. The reggae pop star said he has since returned some of the jewelries he took from Haimov Jewelers and tried to work out a payment plan but they refused. This development is particularly interesting given the fact that Sean Kingston just bought a house and some expensive cars in Jamaica. He is also proclaiming to be far from broke.

No Comments on Fetty Wap Suing Assistant For Stealing $250,000 From Him
Fetty Wap is planning to sue an assistant that allegedly stole $250,000 from him.
Fetty Wap is filthy rich but that doesn't mean that he won't miss a quarter of a million dollars, after all he has kids and baby mamas to support. TMZ reported that the Patterson rapper fired his assistant Shawna Morgan on Friday for pretending to be his booking agent and manager. Sources inside Fetty's RGF Productions revealed that collected the money and even charged additional fees to venues where the rapper is booked.
Not only did Morgan collected booking fees on behalf of RGF, she also pocketed the dough. She also fooled potential promoters by emailing them on the side in an effort to collect additional fees, a practice known in the industry as double dip. RGF reps also claimed that she lies about added fees and pocketed those extra cash.
As for Morgan's side of the story, she vehemently denies the allegations saying that RGF Productions is the one who owes her $250,000 in unpaid expenses. She claimed that she took the industry standard 10% on bookings and would regularly used her own credit card for tour expenses, but was never reimburse. She also claimed that she has receipts to back up her claim.
Fetty Wap company has already contacted their attorney to explore legal action against Morgan.

What were you doing at 3? Chris Brown's 3-year-old daughter Royalty Brown is launching her own kids clothing line.
Breezy already has his own clothing line Black Pyramid and you can see that he has been promoting it heavily all over his social media pages. The new line will feature monster graphics, striped dresses, and cosmetics, all personalized by the young entrepreneur in the making. TMZ reportedly that Royalty's mother Nia Guzman is helping out with the threads.
Nia Guzman, who seems to be the main person behind the clothing line, announced on Instagram that the grand opening will be on August 6, and fans can get on the mailing list at the official website RoyaltyBrown.com. Chris Brown himself has not weighed in on the new venture by his baby mama, but sources are saying that he is not too happy about it. "She is just using her own daughter for money and fame that's the type of person she is," sources said.
Chris Brown and Nia Guzman have been at odds for years over custody and child support and although Breezy is winning the legal fight, the drama is not yet over. The R&B singer is currently working on his new album Heartbreak on a Full Moon, due later this year.

Justin Bieber Hit Paparazzo With Truck On Way From Church
No Comments on Justin Bieber Hit Paparazzo With Truck On Way From Church
Justin Bieber may have some new legal troubles on his hands after hitting a paparazzo with his truck while leaving a church.
Just a few days ago, Bieber announced that he has canceled the remainder of his tour to dedicate his life to Christ. On Wednesday night, the Canadian singer attended church service at The City Church and while he was leaving a group of paparazzi bombarded his vehicle and he somehow hit one of them. Video footage from the incident has since gone viral, showing the moment the vehicle hit the man who is seen on the ground in the photo above.
Cops reported that the man who was hit was taken to the hospital for none life-threatening injuries. The police report also stated that the vehicle was moving extremely slow when the incident occurred. Justin Bieber stopped his vehicle and tried to assist the photographer who was on the ground in pain. He stayed until paramedics arrived and later went about his business, but you can almost bet that a lawsuit is on the way.
"I'm okay," the photographer said in a video statement posted on TMZ. "Hour before my birthday hits, I get run over by Justin Bieber. Isn't that something? He's a good kid, though. I think the truck was a little too big for him, though. There's no way he could see over the front…But like I said, he got out, he was compassionate, he's a good kid." Watch the video below.
In the video you can see Justin Bievber scolding the group of paparazzi who kept filming the whole time. "Are you guys worried about me, or this guy, who's on the ground? What are you guys doing?" he said. "This guy is on the ground and you're talking to me about stuff. Put your cameras down and start helping."

R. Kelly In Damage Control Denies Holding Female In Cult
No Comments on R. Kelly In Damage Control Denies Holding Female In Cult
Yesterday R. Kelly was a trending topic on Instagram after a damning report from Buzzfeed about the singer holding six young girls against their will in a "sex cult" like environment.
One of the young women is the daughter of the couple that filed the report. The report was disturbing enough to warrant a response from R. Kelly, as well as, the female in question who spoke with TMZ denying that she is held against her will. She didn't disclosed where she is, but she said that she was okay and can leave anytime she wants.
"Mr. Robert Kelly is both alarmed and disturbed by the recent revelations attributed to him," Kelly's lawyer, Linda Mensch, told Pitchfork in a statement. "Mr. Kelly unequivocally denies such accusations and will work diligently and forcibly to pursue his accusers and clear his name."
"We can only wonder why folks would persist in defaming a great artist who loves his fans, works 24/7, and takes care of all of the people in his life," Mensch added. Sources say that R. Kelly is holding at least half a dozen ladies in a cult-like atmosphere where he dictates how they dress, what they eat, when they take a shower and other aspects of their lives.

Abstract In competitive markets, profits deviating from the norm will not persist for extended periods. If unimpeded, entry and exit of firms should restore profits to competitive levels. This dynamic process is influenced by regulations that temporarily or permanently impede competition. We study how product market regulations (PMR)—as measured by the OECD—affect competition by their impact on the profit persistence (Wölfl et al. in Ten years of product market reform in OECD countries-insights from a revised PMR indicator, 2009, Product market regulation: extending the analysis beyond OECD countries, 2010). To examine profit dynamics, we follow the methodology developed by Mueller (Economica 44(176):369–380, 1977), which measures both the short run persistence of profits and the long run permanent rents. The method can be used to measure: (1) short run transitory rents; (2) long run permanent rents. To this end we use firm level data from 30 OECD countries over the period 1998–2013. Results show that PMR increase the permanent rents of firms but we find no significant effect on short run profit persistence. We conclude that PMR negatively influence competition and increase permanent rents, resulting in misallocation of resources.

All is working fine with Core Data (adding and deleting etc.) as testing of closing and reopening app shows all is ok. However, the file size of the App when checked on iPhone Settings... Storage... does not reduce back down again.
E.g.
-Empty App size is 17mb
-Adding 6 photos increases App size to 29mb
-25 photos = 84mb
-But when I delete all but 5 photos from core data the file App file size is still about 69mb.
So the iPhone is updating the size of the apps straight away under 'settings...storage', but the App itself is still hoarding data related to the photos that have been deleted from Core Data with ...
"context.deleteObject"... and "context.save()"
I'm assuming data is held somewhere on the App about the original photos that were subsequently deleted.
Thus my question is how to remove this unwanted data that is no longer relevant to the App.?

A: I was having the same issue, but recording videos instead. After I recorded the video and uploaded to a server, I was deleting the videos, but the size of my Documents and Data continued to increase.
After looking what contained on my Documents and Data folder I found out that the problem was that the file on /AppData/Library/Cache/(package name)/Cache.db-wal that was increasing size. Mine it went from 24kb up to 6mb. But then, stabilized on that number. No matter how many videos I took, the size was not increasing anymore.
So you can try to figure out what is going on on your side downloading the Documents and Data content, and looking which files are increasing in size. You can download it following this instruction:
1 - in Xcode, choose Window > Devices.
2- select your device on the left.
3 - select your app from the Installed Apps list.
4- use the gear menu to either browse your app's container (Show Container) or download it to your Mac (Download Container) for offline analysis.
