Data management tools
Is storage automation right for you?
There has been has a lot of buzz around the term "storage automation" lately. It sounds nice, but what does it really mean, and do you really need to spend the money to make it a reality for your organization?
Depending on who you talk to, the term storage automation can mean a number of things:
- Automated provisioning
- Capacity on demand
- Host transparent data movement
- Hot spot elimination
- Transparent data migration
- Utility storage
Automation is a good thing for routine tasks that take a lot of time. Automating routine tasks can decrease administrative overhead and save money by allowing fewer people to do more, and can eliminate the human error factor. Storage automation products are available from software and hardware vendors as software modules or hardware microcode that can:
- Provision storage to hosts based on your policies for switch zoning, LUN masking and performance criteria.
- Move application data from low-performance to high-performance disks (or visa versa) within an array based on application I/O metrics or statistics.
- Migrate data between different classes of storage based on data age or frequency of access.
- Automatically expand LUN sizes to hosts based on policies for how much capacity is left.
- And a host of other cool capabilities that are outside the scope of this tip.
Storage automation is not a panacea for IT administrators, so they can just forget about the day-to-day administration of storage resources to focus on more important stuff.
But let's face it: Stuff happens. Even though routine tasks can be automated, administrators still need to be on their toes and monitor the environment to make sure everything is humming along properly. An automation process may fail, or hardware may fail in the middle of a data move, which may cause data corruption. Automating routine provisioning is a great place to start implementation, since failures during that process present much less risk to critical data.
Do you really need storage automation? That depends on your environment. If your shop is small, and your employees are familiar with API scripting, buying off-the-shelf automation tools may not be required, since you can roll your own. If your shop is large, and your staff is continually fire fighting or dealing with outages, implementing vendor tools to automate most of the day-to-day tasks will allow your staff to be more productive. In either case, make sure that the product you put in place includes enterprise-class monitoring and reporting capabilities, so your administrative staff will have the proper controls and problem notifications should something go wrong.

Sugar drinks are harming America's health.
REGISTER NOW for the 2014 National Soda Summit!
Petition to the FDA
CSPI is asking the FDA to determine a safe level of added sugars for beverages as part of a comprehensive strategy to reduce Americans' dangerously high sugar consumption. Ten health departments, 20 public health organizations, and 41 health professionals signed a letter in support of the petition. Find out more here >>
Pour One Out
We asked our fans to watch The Real Bears 'pour one out' and then make their own wildly creative videos pouring out sugary drinks. View the winning videos >>
From Supersize to Human-size:
Shrinking Sugar Drink Portions
New York City Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas A. Farley and his colleagues from the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene participated in a webinar hosted by CSPI. In September 2012, the New York City Board of Health successfully passed a proposal to set a maximum size for sugary drinks of no more than 16 ounces. This webinar described the rationale for the policy; decisions that influenced the policy; challenges and implications faced by the department; and advice for how to reduce sugary drink consumption in communities. Listen to the thirty-minute webinar to learn how to reshape sugary drink portion size norms in your community.

National Soda Summit
Center for Science in the Public Interest hosted the first National Soda Summit on June 7 and 8, 2012. The conference brought together some of the country's most prominent nutrition authorities, educators, and public health officials, all aiming to improve public health by reducing consumption of soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages.
Soda Summit Highlights
Surgeon General's Report on Sugar Drinks
More than 100 organizations and individuals recently sent a letter to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, asking her to direct the Surgeon General to prepare a Report on the health impacts of sugar drinks and to issue a Call to Action to spur national efforts to reduce sugar drink consumption.

Liquid Candy Tax Calculator
Americans consume huge quantities of soft drinks, which promote obesity and other health problems. Obesity alone costs $147 billion a year in medical expenditures, half of which are paid through Medicare and Medicaid. Taxing soft drinks is an effective approach for cash-strapped federal and state governments looking for ways to fund health care and disease-prevention programs.
To estimate how much revenue the federal government or your
state could generate from an excise and/or sales tax on soft
drinks, enter sample tax rates into the Liquid Candy Tax Calculator. For technical information, see notes about the calculator.

I enjoyed watching this NATURE episode:
http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episo...ing-high/8484/A behind-the-scenes look at how EARTHFLIGHT was made, including the extraordinary relationships between people and birds. Microlights, paragliders, drones, and camera-carrying birds and much more helped along the way. EARTHFLIGHT invites us to see the world from a birds perspective with state-of-the-art technology and sophisticated camera techniques that take viewers on a breathtaking aerial adventure over six continents. It took series producer John Downer and his team four years to film more than 100 bird species in 40 different countries, capturing amazing viewpoints that have never been seen before. Film premiered October 9, 2013. Available [online] until November 6, 2013. (Restricted to U.S. and Territories.)

I have decided that my new favorite line is from the most recent episode of Paradise:

On that note, I shall depart, as did the character. Exit stage left.

I just caught the re-broadcast of Sondheim's Company, which was from a 2011 concert performance with the NY Philharmonic. It was fabulous--Neil Patrick Harris was great as Bobby, Patti LuPone owned "Ladies Who Lunch" and I was so impressed by actors (Stephen Colbert, Martha Plimpton, Jon Cryer, Christina Hendricks), whom I'd only seen in TV roles.
If you can catch another re-run, I'd highly recommend it!
OK, there is a show on PBS, set in Britain (duh) and it involves something to do with atomic research and clandestine activities. It is set in the ... 50s? Anyone know what it is?

By LARRY EDENS for the Daily Telegraph
Bluefield Daily Telegraph
BLACKSBURG, Va. —
They say that actions speak louder than words. That may be true.
But when you're a physically imposing quarterback like Virginia Tech's Logan Thomas and you couple a team-meeting speech with a two-touchdown, 256-yard passing performance in a much-needed home win, the loudness can reach almost immeasurable decibels.
On Saturday, the fans at Lane Stadium saw to that in the Hokies come-from-behind 41-20 victory over Duke. The win followed back-to-back losses to Cincinnati and North Carolina, a situation that prompted Thomas to speak to the team after practice on Thursday.
What he said was almost prophetic.
"I just said we need to stick together through thick and thin, no matter what happens," said Thomas, a self-admitted proponent of one-on-one mentoring rather than that of the captured-audience approach.
"It could get bad right off the start, but if it does, we have to hang together. We've had two tough losses the past two weeks. It would be easy for the team to fall apart. But the type of guys we are, we just have to stick together, become closer, and be stronger."
This season's first-quarter doldrums continued for Virginia Tech against the Blue Devils. Duke scored a touchdown on its first drive and Virginia Tech followed that with a three-and-out.
By the time the quarter ended, Duke had established a 20-0 lead by virtue of quarterback Sean Renfree's 62-yard touchdown pass, safety Jordon Byas' 20-yard interception return for a touchdown, and kicker Ross Martin's two field goals.
From that point on, however, it was all Hokies. The defense threw a shutout the final three quarters and the offense rolled up 41 unanswered points in a game that turned from Virginia Tech reeling to Duke being routed.
Renfree was sacked five times by a defense that had only recorded eight the previous six games; the Hokies offense was balanced and deadly: freshman tailback J.C. Coleman rushed for 183 yards and two touchdowns while redshirt senior flanker Marcus Davis caught both of Thomas' touchdown passes, one for 42 yards, the other for 47.
Perhaps Thomas' most infectious team-speech words were reverberating in the ears and minds of him and his teammates in the game's final 45 minutes.
"I just wanted to let them know that no matter what happens, I'm still going to play my tail off. I'm still going to go out there and lay it on the line for you all," he said.
"I expect you to do that for me because we are Virginia Tech. This is how we play. We play hard every single game, every single play. We just have to stick together."
Not only did they do that, they stuck it to their opponent.
Thomas hopes Virginia Tech's newfound winning formula will showcase itself again versus Clemson on Saturday in Death Valley.
Last season, Clemson defeated the Hokies 23-3 in Blacksburg, a loss that derailed Virginia Tech from the national-championship-game track. The Tigers went on to win the ACC title with an equally convincing 38-10 victory over Virginia Tech in Charlotte.
"I'm not really a chip-on-the-shoulder type of guy, but [I've] had that loss tucked away in my mind," Thomas said. "I'm extremely happy to get another shot at them and hopefully beat them on their home turf. We have to come out with the mindset that no one can stop us."
Sounds like the beginnings of another effective pre-game speech.

what is the configuration to change the MAIL_DIR /var/spool/mail to other direcction?
sendmail Doubt
Hai,will sendmail work as SMTP server with out any authentication for
users those who are sitting remotely.i don't want put it as open rely.but only the @abc.com domain user can relay mail from both local and remote locations with out any authentication.Is it possible ?
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
does sendmail support maildir.. using IMAP using old bsd format email load cpu usage high/.. i am using Postfix and Courier IMAP..
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Yes it does. It probably supports anything, you just have to tell Sendmail which filter it uses to make local deliveries. Especifically for maildirs you can use the maildrop delivery filter. Use Google to find out more about "maildrop".
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
This article is useless... What a waste of my time....
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Then don't read it... moron.
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Not to me, it really did help me
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Not useless in the least... you saved my newbie butt! I'm a complete newb with linux, but my company needed a simple mailserver (aside from our usual Novell boxes) to relay certain types of email (coming from specific servers) out the door. Linux and sendmail seemed to be the smart choice.
Your article helped me more than I can say. I've printing out and read pieces and parts of instructions from all overon how to deal with sendmail... and none of them explained it clearly enough (or in detail enough for a beginner) to get me started. Now that I understand the basics, I have plenty of experimenting I can do. Eventually I see us using a linux machine as a firewall for incoming email too.
I'm now in love with linux, and it's not in small part due to your article.
Thanks a ton,
Configuring Sendmail
Check out Install-Sendmail which'll configure Sendmail. It's horribly easy to run and I'm going to look at some of the advice here for future improvements..
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
I wonder if it's a joke mistakingly posted two weeks in advance or if Bauer placed the wrong posting date by mistake. I am not kidding.
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
> Here is a simple access file:
> localhost.localdomain RELAY
> localhost RELAY
You shouldn't use the entries above in your access db. They're useless as sendmail will work without it. On the other hand, most RBLs (e.g. ORDB) will detect your machine as open mail-relay and put it in their blackhole database. All entries above should be set to REJECT.
A. Danzer
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
This will only open your machine for relaying from localhost, although the top 2 lines are useless and can be exploited with some dns poisoning.
You shouldn't reject mail from 127.0.0.1 should you? Sounds stupid to me.
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Setting these lines in the access.db doesn't block people from using the server to send junk to users on the local machine.
I'm looking for a solution to that problem if anyone is up for the chalange...
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
I have these lines in my sendmail access db; they've been there for years. I'm running the latest RedHat OEM'ed sendmail right now.
ORDB has just tested me for open relays and found nada, so there must be more to the problem than you think.
PS - my domain does both ingress and egress filtering, and those names are in the local DNS as well, so that may be why it works for me.
--The Rev
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Good overview article.
> ... sendmail must run as root if any portion of
> its required functionality does, i.e., writing
> mail to multiple users' home directories.
This isn't necessary. You can run sendmail as an ordinary user account and use group "mail" as the means to do the writing into /var/mail or other mail files.
The sendmail maintainers appear to have made a lot of progress in making sendmail's security more robust over the last several years.
Part of the reason its still so big as a whole is it can probably do more mail delivery tricks (processing, delivery means (TCP/IP, uucp, etc.), etc.) than other MTAs.
The default behavior since Sendmail 8.8 or so (as I recall) is to not relay mail.
If security is a real concern, you probably want an SMTP proxy host in front of your mail server. smtpd is a good solution. It acts as a store and forward mail gateway which strictly enforces the SMTP mail rules. You can also use tcp wrappers, and the MAPS Realtime Blackhole List with smtpd.
A well configured mail proxy on a secured system (OpenBSD or one of the security oriented linux distros make a great choice) talking to a mail host with a user mode chrooted sendmail for delivery will wear out most crackers before they compromise your mail server.
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Is there a free rbl site that has opened up in the wake of rbl requiring a contract with them (even for so-called free for individuals)?
Re: Paranoid Penguin: Hardening Sendmail
Sendmail does sanity checks on its environment at start up. A group writeable directory is considered to be a security issue, so sendmail will not start.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

As a middle school student living at 21st Street and Ohio Boulevard in the early 1950s, Joy Sacopulos "volunteered" to push one of her younger siblings around the block in a baby buggy.
It was one of her first volunteer jobs, but far from her favorite and definitely not her last.
"It was so embarrassing," Sacopulos recalled. "When you're the second oldest of seven, you have a lot of opportunities to volunteer."
Since then, Sacopulos has practically made a career leading and volunteering for countless community groups and projects. She helped launch TREES Inc., one of the most active and successful not-for-profit groups in the area. She also got the Friends of the Historic Allen Chapel organization and the Terre Haute Crow Patrol off the ground, to just scratch the surface.
On Thursday night, VNA/Hospice of the Wabash Valley named Sacopulos this year's winner of the Chapman S. Root Award – its most prestigious honor.
"Her biography is seven pages long," said Charles Uhl, himself an active community volunteer and former executive with Public Service Indiana. Uhl was one of those who spoke Thursday night at the Hospice Holiday Celebration dinner at Hulman Center, at which Sacopulos received the award.
"I've worked in 10 different cities in 40 years [with PSI] and never met anyone who could hold a candle to this lady," Uhl said.
Sacopulos' eldest son, Peter, also spoke at the dinner, which is the single largest fundraising event for VNA/Hospice of the Wabash Valley.
Established in 1990, the Chapman S. Root award recognizes individuals whose leadership and generosity have enhanced the quality of life in the Wabash Valley. It was just a matter of time before the organization's board added Joy Sacopulos to the list of winners, said Trudy Rupska, CEO of VNA/Hospice.
"She is truly a woman who needs to be recognized for all she's done," Rupska said.
For nearly the past 50 years, Sacopulos has quietly but determinedly championed numerous causes for the improvement of life in the Wabash Valley. She was a founder of Planned Parenthood of the Wabash Valley and Sacred Landmarks of Downtown Terre Haute. She has also lent her talents to Indiana Landmarks, the Indiana National Road Association, the Boy Scouts of America, Wabash Valley Goodwill Industries, the Third Street Corridor Enhancement Coalition, the Florence Crittenden Home, United Way of the Wabash Valley, the Vigo County Historical Society and the League of Terre Haute.
Of all the volunteer efforts in which she has been involved, Sacopulos said TREES Inc. is probably the work that has been closest to her heart. She founded the organization in 1989 with local landscaper and business owner, Hank Metzger. The two people who have most inspired her over the years are Dorothy Jerse, a local writer and historian, and Uhl, she said.
Sacopulos has received almost countless honors over the years, including an honorary doctor of humane letters from Rose-Hulman, the Kiwanis Club Handclasp Award and a Sagamore of the Wabash, to name only three.
Asked to comment on winning the Chapman S. Root Award, Sacopulos was as unassuming as always: "I'm pleased somebody thinks I've done something to help," she said.
Awards are nice to receive, Sacopulos said, but often her volunteer efforts come with their own rewards. For example, after helping save the former "Coffee Cottage" on Wabash Avenue, a historic gasoline station built during the Depression, Sacopulos said she received two telephone calls. One from the son of a man who worked his way through college at the unique service station, now at Art Nehf Field at Rose-Hulman. The other call was from a man whose family rented a room to the designer of the historic building as it was being constructed. Both callers shared priceless memories associated with the picturesque cottage, Sacopulos said.
"That's the kind of reward that makes you think: Ahh, this is wonderful," she said.

The Andover Townsman
---- — Editor, Townsman:
The League of Women Voters of Andover/North Andover wants to draw attention to the Thursday, Sept. 6 state primary elections and to encourage residents to vote.
Voting will take place at both Andover High School and the Andover Senior Center. Due to the redistricting earlier this year, some voters may find that they should vote at a different location. Voters can check their precincts and voting location before heading to the polls using the Secretary of the Commonwealth's website: wheredoivotema.com/bal/MyElectionInfo.aspx. The website also has links to sample ballots.
Residents voting at Andover High School should note that Sept. 6 is also the first day of class for Andover Public Schools and should be especially cautious driving to the polls.

The original ownership group of the Columbus Crew wasn't looking to sell. Instead, Hunt Sports Group was seeking a local investor to purchase a minority share in the MLS franchise.
Once businessman Anthony Precourt began to learn more about the club, though, it was only a matter of time before he could convince Hunt Sports Group to sell the entire franchise.
The deal was announced on Tuesday, the day before the league's annual All-Star game. Precourt Sports Ventures LLC will take over operating rights to the franchise from the company run by Clark Hunt, whose late father Lamar Hunt helped prop up the league nearly 20 years ago.
The Crew, which won the MLS Cup in 2008, was one of the charter members of the league.
"We have long believed in the ascension of soccer in the American sports-entertainment world," Precourt said in a statement. "We thank the Hunt family for having the trust in us to become the Crew's new steward. The Hunt family has done so much for MLS, and the development of the game in Ohio, and for that we thank them."
Hunt, whose family also owns the Kansas City Chiefs, called it a "bittersweet" day for his family and company. But he also made it clear that Hunt Sports Group will remain active in MLS through its ownership of FC Dallas.
"Anthony is a bright, passionate, driven leader, and we believe he will be a great fit for Columbus," Hunt said. "We are delighted to welcome him as a partner in MLS, and I am confident that he will do an outstanding job with the Crew."
During the early days of Major League Soccer, every team was owned by just a few different groups. But over the years, those teams have slowly taken on local ownership — Hunt Sports Group sold the franchise in Kansas City in 2006 — in an attempt to diversify and stabilize the league.
MLS Commissioner Don Garber said following the dedication of futsal courts in Kansas City, Kan., on Tuesday that the sale of the represented a "great development" for the league.
"It's been a long time from our days when we had three owners," Garber said, "and now we're soon to have 20 teams and with the exception of the 50 percent ownership that Phil Anschutz has in Houston, we have one team and one owner, and that's been a goal of this league since 2002."
The Crew, the only MLS club in Ohio, has experienced plenty of success since its founding. Along with capturing its first MLS Cup five years ago, it also won the U.S. Open Cup in 2002 and the Supporters' Shield for the league's best regular-season record on three occasions.
The club was also groundbreaking in that it opened the first stadium built specifically for an MLS team in 1999. The facility has been used by the U.S. national team for several international competitions, and has served as a blueprint for other soccer-specific stadiums across the league.
Garber said that Precourt, whose Precourt Capital Management provides investment management services and private equity investing in the energy sector, began to express interest in expanding into the sports and entertainment realm more than a year ago.
Precourt was drawn to MLS, and began discussions with Hunt on purchasing part of the Columbus franchise. Over time, Garber said, Precourt became more enamored of the league.
"We weren't pressuring them to sell the team," Garber said, "but as discussions proceeded and Anthony got more involved in MLS and did his due diligence, he said, 'Hey, I want to own all this team,' and he was able to convince the Hunt family to sell him 100 percent interest in the club."
Hunt Sports Group was advised by Inner Circle Sports in the sale.
"There is no Major League Soccer without Lamar Hunt. There's maybe not the sports industry we have today without Lamar Hunt, and Clark Hunt is an apple that hasn't fallen far from the tree," Garber said. "Now he'll focus his attention to Dallas, where we're making a lot of progress on and off the field, and it's a great market that I think with their undivided attention will be even better than it is today."

Two Shabby Figures
The discovery of a sign of true intellect outside ourselves procures us something of the emotion Robinson Crusoe felt when he saw the imprint of a human foot on the sandy beach of his island.
I WAS FIFTEEN when I first met Sherlock Holmes, fifteen years old with my nose in a book as I walked the Sussex Downs, and nearly stepped on him. In my defence I must say it was an engrossing book, and it was very rare to come across another person in that particular part of the world in that war year of 1915.

Peter Ubel, Contributor
I explore medical controversies thru behavioral econ and bioethics.
When I lived in Ann Arbor, my children attended a public school where upwards of 15% of kids were not vaccinated for mumps because their left-wing parents didn't trust the vaccine industry. Meanwhile on the right end of the political spectrum, Tea Party heart throb Michelle Bachman famously accused vaccines of causing autism. How is it that such an advanced technologic country harbors so many vaccine luddites?
A quick glance at the U.S. small pox epidemic of 1900 offers a clue.
At the turn of the 20th century, the United States had managed to avoid a major smallpox epidemic for the better part of a generation. Then a small wave of illness washed over communities of black farmers and laborers in a few southeastern states. The white community wasn't alarmed however, believing the disease, which some called "nigger itch," would stay contained to that population, who they were convinced had brought it upon themselves through one or another vice. As one local newspaper put it at the time: "Up to the present, no white people have been attacked and there is positively no occasion for alarm."
Then of course the disease began spreading to white people. The smallpox virus, it turns out, was colorblind. Yet although white people did become alarmed at this point, they didn't turn out in droves to get vaccines. Instead, a vocal minority argued vehemently that the vaccine was of no benefit.
It should have been obvious to even casual observers that the smallpox vaccine was a lifesaver. During the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, you see, a smallpox epidemic had swept through Europe killing millions of citizens. The French army, which had half-heartedly vaccinated some of its troops, fared better than the population, but still saw over 23,000 troops fall victim to this terrible scourge. Meanwhile on the other side of the battle lines, the Prussian army, almost all of whom had been vaccinated, remained strong. Out of over 800,000 troops, only 457 died from smallpox.
Good policies often depend on good evidence. In healthcare, our gold standard for good evidence is the randomized controlled trial, in which, for example, half the patients receive a new drug and half receive a placebo. When the drug and placebo patients are determined at random, we can be pretty confident that any subsequent differences between the groups—like a higher mortality rate in the placebo group—occur because one group got the drug and the other didn't.
But sometimes, non-experimental evidence is so striking that conducting a randomized trial—withholding the new intervention from half of an experimental population—feels immoral. That's one reason there has never been a randomized trial of the smallpox vaccine. Indeed, it is why many early medical advances became standard of care without anyone seeing the need for a placebo controlled experiment.
Yet a mere thirty years after the end of the Franco-Prussian War, when the smallpox epidemic swept through the United States, a whole host of intelligent people refused to be vaccinated, convinced that the vaccine did more harm than good.
How could they hold this belief? For starters, the United States had much stronger libertarian leanings than places like France and Germany. But another fascinating phenomenon also contributed to people's anti-vaccine views: people didn't believe the evidence. They remained unconvinced because of what us in the medical research world would call concern about "confounding."
A confound occurs in research when two groups differ not only in the intervention of interest, but also in some other possibly unmeasured way. This makes it hard to tell whether the difference between the groups is caused by the intervention in question–the vaccine in this case–or from this other factor.
Very educational article, indeed. Regarding the fact that the drug corporations are making new generation vaccines, which are called "bioterrorism" vaccines and for example, it is the disreputably reactive smallpox vaccine, that it has never tested for safety in clinical trials. And not only the drug corporations demand that the Congress provide them a total officially authorized protection for all the vaccine-induced injuries and deaths, they are furthermore demand that the specific bioterrorism vaccines are excepted from standard federal protection and efficiency standards. I suppose that they have no right to play with our health.
Could you please show me any true study on any vaccine? So far, all I can find is a vaccine and instead of a true control group it is tested against a single ingredient from the vaccine or another vaccine. Where are the controls? Thanks!

Scoring on their very first offensive play of the game, the Braves scored 35 straight points in the first half before holding off a second-half surge by Shore for a 35-21 Heartland Athletic Conference Diviison I win at Thompson Street Stadium
After stopping a Shore drive to open the game, the Braves scored on their first play of the night when Ernie Tyler and Garrett Kemberling teamed up on a 60-yard catch-and-run for the game's first touchdown
Dwayne Pepper took over the Shik offensive attack as he scored three times on runs of 45, 33 and 22 yards. For the game, Pepper finished with 127 yards and the three scores on just seven touches.

Mechanical fastener, usually used with a nut, for connecting two or more parts. Bolted joints can be readily disassembled and reassembled; hence bolts or screw fasteners are used more than other types of mechanical fastener. A bolt consists of a head and a cylindrical body with screw threads along a portion of its length. Nuts have internal (or female) threads to match those of the bolt. Washers are often used to prevent loosening and crushing.

Snipe Vest goes from the bush to the bank
The term sniper originated in British India, signifying bird hunters with the skill to shoot the elusive, easily-spooked snipe. We based our Gentlemans Snipe Vest on the classic hunting vest of these British sharpshooters, complete with cotton-lined hidden game pouches at the front (good for tucking glasses or a signed contract). Made of 100% cotton and prewashed for comfort. Imported.

Best Uses
I bought this vest as a birthday gift for my husband to wear on a trip to Europe. He loves it! The pockets are perfect for keeping his wallet and small computer tablet secure and safe from pickpockets, and it is lightweight and a style and color that goes with just about everything. Plus, he won't have to wear cargo pants to have enough pockets.
Best Uses
I wear it in the cool mornings & evenings
Best Uses
I wish Duluth made this in navy or black or dark brown, actually all of those.
Great vest. Good design. Could be even better with a back pocket (to carry more and balance the load).
It works for shooting and other outdoor activities (I actually find it useful for carrying stuff that I don't want in my pants pockets when I ride my bike), but it's also good-enough looking to wear to a casual dinner party.
Best Uses
Dresses up casual wear
Best Uses
I liked the vest and planned to wear it daily but the fit was a little too tight. Since the vest was hard to button, I couldn't put anything in the big hunting pouch pockets. I reluctantly put it in the mail to return it today.
Best Uses
I started wearing vests more years ago than I like to think about, because my wife didn't like me carrying stuff on my belt. I've been using leather ones designed for carrying handguns, because they're good for carrying bulky items unobtrusively -- go figure. However, they're quite expensive and ill suited for hot, humid weather.
When I saw this vest, I figured it might be a good, light-weight alternative, and the price is certainly agreeable compared to the leather ones. The one qualm I had was that I couldn't get a good read on how large the "game pockets" are, but I figured I'd take the chance and lean on Duluth's generous return policy if they turned out to be too small.
The opening to the pockets is about 9.5" top to bottom, and they basically run the entire lower panel on each side, roughly 14" wide by 12" high. One side holds my cell phone and work pager nicely, and the other swallows my Nook with nary a burp. I don't drink aPple koolaid, but I suspect an iPad would also fit nicely.
Further, I would not expect anyone to be able to tell just by looking that I'm toting those items in this vest, and the weight is certainly light enough for warmer weather. The only change I might wish for would be some sort of fastener on the pockets. I would not try carrying a sidearm in this vest, but for anything less weighty and flatish, it seems quite well suited, and even my wife agrees that it looks downright spiffy, so win-win.
Best Uses
On the day that I received this, Angels sang on high, and my Mail-lady had a halo.
The pockets are perfect. the fit is perfect. there is nothing better for bird hunting, or working in the laboratory. The chest pockets both hold at least two entire Spruce Grouse, and each can easily hold my scientific notebooks. the interior chest pocket is perfectly sized for a flask, which enables me to stay warm while digging my buddy's truck out of a snowbank 45 miles in on the Denali Highway in subzero temperatures.
I wore this while chopping down trees. no problem.
I wore it while brush-busting through Interior Alaska with snowshoes and a shotgun.
I won first place in my University's Beard Competition while wearing this vest.
God has reached down, and gifted me this vest. all for only $89.50
Get one.
Best Uses
Great for those chilly days at the house or office. Adds a layer, with pockets aplenty!
Best Uses
Since this is the second one I bought, I must like them. Enough pockets without looking like inspector gadget. Well made. Only wish they came in more colors- I would buy some more.
Best Uses
I am going to get at least 1 more.

African Mango for Weight Loss: What's the Buzz About?African Mango for Weight Loss: What's the Buzz About?[After ten weeks] people in the African mango group lost an average of 28 pounds
Extract of African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) is a hot newcomer to the weight-loss scene.
While residents of Cameroon on Africa's West coast have used African mango seeds for centuries, as a thickener in soups and sauces, African mango has recently grown in popularity in other parts of the world-not as a food, but as a weight-loss aid that may also help lower cholesterol levels. The best part? It doesn't seem to have any side effects.
What do the studies say?
The most widely cited analysis of African mango's weight-loss properties was published in the journal Lipids in Health and Disease. In that study, 102 people took 150 mg of a patented African mango extract (IGOB131) or placebo two times per day for ten weeks. At the end of the study, people in the African mango group had lost an average of 28 pounds, while people in the placebo group had lost almost no weight.
Waist circumference, body fat percentage, total and LDL-cholesterol levels, measures of inflammation in the body, and blood glucose levels all significantly improved in the African mango group. Such changes help lower the risk of metabolic syndrome, a forerunner to heart disease and diabetes.
A smaller study reported that an African mango extract significantly reduced systolic blood pressure and triglyceride levels, and raised heart-healthy HDL-cholesterol levels.
How does it work?
Evidence suggests that African mango acts at a genetic level to affect hormones involved with fat metabolism, including:
Leptin: Leptin is a hormone that helps regulate appetite. Normally, when a person has had enough to eat, leptin levels rise, signaling them to put their fork down. Leptin doesn't seem to work the same way in obese people, though. Instead of telling the brain, "You're full, now," leptin levels continue to rise in obese people, without the accompanying message to stop eating. Taking African mango led to an almost 49% drop in leptin levels in one study. The authors attributed the reduction to a decrease in body fat.
Adiponectin: In the same study, African mango significantly increased adiponectin levels. This hormone has anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic roles. Adiponectin levels are inversely correlated to body fat percentage, meaning that the more adiponectin there is, the less body fat a person has.
Is it safe?
The studies published to date about African mango seem to indicate that it's safe. The most commonly reported side effects were trouble sleeping, headache, and excess intestinal gas. These complaints were reported just as frequently in people taking placebo as in those taking African mango.
What do the experts say?
"Losing weight can be a major obstacle to good health for many people. Before reading the results of these studies, I wouldn't have considered prescribing African mango for weight loss," says Erica LePore, a Rhode Island doctor who specializes in weight loss. "I still consider these studies to be in the preliminary stages, but so far, they're very encouraging. I like the fact that African mango is a non-stimulant food product, which seems like it would be much safer than many of the other weight-loss supplements on the market. The fact that it works on a hormonal level to control appetite is also appealing," LePore comments.
If you decide to try an African mango supplement, look for products containing no fillers or other ingredients and avoid products that supply more active ingredient than the amount used in clinical trials (150 mg per capsule). While the supplement appears safe, it is still too soon to make conclusions about using African mango in higher amounts.Kimberly Beauchamp, ND, received her doctoral degree from Bastyr University, the nation's premier academic institution for science-based natural medicine.

Review: 'tude Juice – New Varieties
Earlier this month, 'tude added six new juice flavors to its line of cold-pressed, HPP apple juice blends. The new products are polished and appealing looking, but we think there's still a challenge when it comes to the positioning of the product. How do you sell apple juice, which is largely perceived as a product for children, to a broader audience?
