Plans are underway for the NYIT-Vancouver graduation ceremony and luncheon on Friday, May 30 ...
New York Institute of Technology's Vancouver Campus is pleased to announce these new master's degree program opportunities in some of the hottest industries around the world:
Master of Science in Information, Network, and Computer Security
We have received approval from the Minister of Advanced Education of British Columbia for our proposal to offer a Master of Science in Information, Network, and Computer Security (M.S.-INCS). This new master's degree in the field of cyber Security is a cutting-edge program designed to prepare students for leadership positions in addressing a major challenge faced by modern organizations. The M.S.-INCS will be ideally suited for graduates of baccalaureate programs in computer science, engineering, operations research, mathematics, and related areas. The program is a two-year program (although particularly strong, well-prepared, and hard-working students could complete the requirements more quickly). We will be taking applications starting in September 2013 for a planned program start-up in January 2014.
Master of Business Administration with concentration in Finance or Tourism.
The highly sought-after M.B.A. has been the flagship program of NYIT-Vancouver for over a decade. We now have approval from the Minister of Advanced Education of British Columbia to add two optional concentrations to our already valuable M.B.A. NYIT M.B.A. students now have the opportunity to concentrate in one of these areas and receive either an M.B.A. (Finance) or an M.B.A. (Tourism). Each concentration is achieved by replacing the three elective courses (nine credits) with five courses (15 credits) specified for the concentration, extending the program by two courses (six credits).
All of the above are approved by Citizenship and Immigration Canada. (See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/institutions/participants.asp) and recognized by the Canadian Information Centre for International Credentials (See http://www.cicic.ca/687/postsec.canada?id_postsec=2113).
Friends, family, and faculty honored 24 graduates of the Class of 2013 at NYIT-Vancouver's twelfth graduation ceremony and luncheon held at VanDusen Botanical Garden on May 31. Attendees included NYIT Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Rahmat A. Shoureshi, Ph.D., who conferred M.B.A. degrees on the graduates. The student speaker was Eros Tuladhar. Read more.
Eros Tuladhar is a member of the Class of 2013 studying in the M.B.A. program at NYIT-Vancouver. He serves as managing partner of his family's business, Rainbow Collection Nepal, an exporter of hand-knotted Tibetan rugs. He is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Honor Society and Student Advisory Board at NYIT-Vancouver. Read his NYIT profile.
NYIT-Vancouver has Educational Quality Assurance (EQA) designation from the British Columbia provincial government. EQA is a quality assurance designation that identifies BC public and private post-secondary institutions that have met or exceeded provincial government recognized quality assurance standards.
The NYIT-Vancouver graduation ceremony for the Class of 2013 will take place on Friday, May 31, noon - 3 p.m. at Shaughnessy Restaurant at VanDusen Botanical Garden, 5251 Oak St., Vancouver, BC.
For updates regarding the ceremony, visit nyit.edu/canada/commencement.
Martin Gerson, Ph.D., has joined NYIT as the dean and executive director of the Vancouver campus as of Jan. 16. The Montreal native has nearly four decades of experience in higher education in Canada, where he previously served in academic leadership positions at Langara College and was the recipient of the 2012 Dr. Idahlynn Karre Exemplary Leadership Award. His area of expertise is mathematical logic.
The School of Management's academic programs deliver both classroom and real life learning experiences. To complement these educational opportunities, the school's Professional Enrichment platform offers co-curricular activities during which our students meet and network with area specialists; learn from business leaders; and attend various seminars and forums that deal with professional readiness and/or current work-related issues.
This guide will provide valuable information for your job search as well as provide you with information on what employers are specifically looking for in a graduate in Canada.
NYIT-Vancouver campus' current MBA student, Sergii Kuznietsov, has been honored as a LOT Young Leader. The Leaders of Tomorrow (LOT) is a mentorship program of The Vancouver Board of Trade which engages final year post secondary students with established professionals in Vancouver's business community.

Texas Longhorns Football News: Regular Season and Preseason Updates
See more NCAA Football tickets.
4/24/14: There was a lot of action out of Texas this past week. First, former USC Max Wittek showed up to watch the spring game. Wittek may well be transferring to Texas soon, though he is also said to be considering Hawaii and Louisville. He will graduate from USC this spring, so he would be eligible to play without sitting out a year. That may be putting pressure on QB Tyrone Swoopes who struggled during the game. Wittek is seeking to transfer so he can have a chance to play, because he is not getting on the field with the Trojans.
4/17/14: The Longhorns suffered a tough, but at least short-term obstacle last week as starting quarterback David Ash is out for the remainder of spring practices with a broken foot. Ash will undergo surgery and will be out of commission for several weeks. The good news is that he is expected to be fully recovered by the time August practices roll around. Ash is still the starting quarterback for Texas. That being said, Texas' new head coach, Charlie Strong, may always change up the depth chart. This injury gives 2013 recruit Tyrone Swoopes a chance to prove his mettle in leading the team.
4/10/13: The Athletic Department at the University of Texas has a nice $265,000 bill to pay now. The school contracted with a search firm to find their new head coach (Charlie Strong) once Mack Brown announced he was stepping down last season. Many may question why the school would spend so much money on a search firm when there realistically are very few candidates available and those are pretty well known. One reason is the vetting process. That is where the search firm goes through candidates histories to uncover any potential controversies or misdeeds. Recall over a decade ago when Notre Dame hired George O'Leary, but then found he had lied on his resume about a degree. O'Leary was quickly out of South Bend and it was a big embarrassment for the school. In that sense, the search firm is like insurance.
4/3/14: New head football coach Charlie Strong is trying to get the toughness back in Texas football. One of the complaints about Strong's predecessor, Mack Brown, is that the players got too soft over his last few years. Indeed, the Longhorns have been average for a while, and may just need a little Junction Boy treatment. Strong is now making his players walk the half mile from the locker-room to the practice facility and will not let his players use the 'hook 'em horns' salute. That may change back over time, but Strong wants his players to earn that right first. It seems like a good step from the fan's point of view, and maybe these small items will have a positive effect.
3/27/14: This time of year is notorious within college football as a period where players sometimes move on from the program. That can happen in several ways, but usually boils down to the player wanting to play somewhere else or the team dismissing the player for academic or legal reasons. Texas, last week, dismissed two reserve players for violating 'unspecified team rules'. The players are Chet Moss and defensive back Leroy Scott. Scott was a co-special teams player of the year in 2013, while Moss was suspended previously for the Texas Tech game around Thanksgiving and played in 27 games in his Longhorn career.
3/20/14: Much to the chagrin of Texas A&M faithful, the University of Texas is still the flagship football program in the state. A&M is expanding and renovating their stadium (thank you, Johnny Football), while Baylor is getting a new stadium (thank you, Robert Griffin III). UT looks to upgrade as well. The Longhorns have reportedly hired PriceWaterhouseCoopers to study the possibility of adding a section to the south end of Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. UT has long had the biggest stadium among Texas colleges, and an expansion by UT would ensure that they stay as the biggest in the state.
3/13/14: Everyone knows that the Longhorns are trying to get themselves back on top of the college football mountain after a few mediocre years. They have a new coach, a new athletic director, and possibly a new attitude. They may also have a new QB. Texas is reportedly leading the pack in the chase for former USC QB Max Wittek. Wittek was once a top recruit, but never did much at USC. He has ruled out a transfer to TCU, and is apparently choosing between Texas and Hawaii. He would have a better chance to play at Hawaii, but Texas is obviously the better program.
3/6/14: Texas' new athletic director Steve Patterson may be moving to allow alcohol sales at Texas Longhorn football games in the near future, possibly as soon as the 2014 season. The athletic department reportedly has approved sale of beer and wine for men's basketball games this season. Baseball would be next, and football then in the fall. The Longhorns would be the third Big 12 program to allow such sales, following in the footsteps of Iowa State and West Virginia. Of course, it comes down to money. West Virginia made a lot off beer sales, and all programs (including Texas) are always on the lookout for additional revenue streams.
2/27/14: Texas is not sending as many players to the NFL as they have in the past, and they certainly do not have a 'must have' prospect out there like Ricky Williams or Vince Young (of course, that may be a good thing for NFL teams). They do have wide receiver Mike Davis on the board this year, a year that is chalked full of WR goodness. Davis had an up and down career at Texas and is now looking for his NFL shot. He totaled 200 receptions, 2,752 yards and 18 touchdowns in his time with the Longhorns, and should get a chance to make a pro squad.
2/20/14: Texas Longhorns like to believe that they have been a dominant powerhouse in college football since time began. That is glossing over the fact that the Longhorns were middle of the road for decades until Mack Brown showed up in the late 90's and brought them back to prominence. They are an average team right now, and new head coach Charlie Strong's greatest challenge is "putting the T back in Texas". The Longhorns have been lapped by Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and even Baylor in recent years, but the state's flagship program should not be down too long.
2/13/14: Fans and boosters of the Texas Longhorns do not like to wait and they do not like to lose. Like it or not, it will probably not be a one year turnaround for the program. Texas has all the resources anyone could ask for, but they need a bit of time to get their recruits involved and understanding new head coach Charlie Strong's philosophy. The Longhorns landed QB Jerrod Heard in the 2014 recruiting class, and he could be the next great Texas QB in the long-term. In the short term, four star receiver Armanti Foreman could provide more impact.
2/6/14: If you thought that Texas has reached its potential in its reach, then you are sorely mistaken. New Texas Athletic director Steve Patterson has some big plans, and those plans include playing games in Mexico. There will be some who will say that Texas' reach almost destroyed the Big 12 Conference (indeed, Nebraska, Colorado, Texas A&M, and Missouri all left), but the program has to continually grow, and Mexico is a logical next step. In the future, there may be Longhorns games south of the border, which is actually good for all of college football, as it helps the game grow to new markets.
1/30/14: Every year, there are a few teams that come out of nowhere to surprise everyone with a great record. That is the exception. The rule is that several years of top recruiting build national championship contenders. Right now, the Longhorns have 22 commits in their recruiting class, which is ranked 17th in the nation and second in the Big 12. The top commit is defensive end Derick Roberson out of San Antonio. He is ranked as the number four DE prospect and the number 64 over all prospect. The Longhorns also have a few strong wide receivers, which will help them open up the field down the road.
1/23/14: Just a week in to his job and new head coach Charlie Strong has a minor controversy on his hands. Prominent billionaire booster (and former Minnesota Vikings owner) Red McCombs went on the radio and blasted the hire of Strong as the new head coach. Strong, to his credit, remained professional about the whole ordeal and McCombs later apologized. It is interesting to note that Strong was the defensive coordinator for Will Muschamp at Florida. Muschamp was the coach-in-waiting at Texas before leaving for Florida - so this could have been his job, rather than his former assistant Charlie Strong.
1/16/14: Well that escalated quickly. Texas announced last week that they were hiring Louisville head coach Charlie Strong to replace Mack Brown. Louisville, in turn, announced that they were bringing back Bobby Petrino. Petrino made Louisville a power, then left for the Atlanta Falcons, then quit during the season to be the head coach at Arkansas, then got into a sticky situation with a female staffer and a motorcycle accident. He ended up at Western Kentucky. Now he is back to Louisville to complete the circle. Hope Strong is smarter than that at his first chance as a head coach in a big time program.
1/9/14: The search for the next head football coach at the University of Texas is finally over, so we can all get on with our lives. The Longhorns plucked Louisville head coach Charlie Strong to run the program, which some refer to as the best job in college football. This came after a lot of head coaches got raises and extension while the search was going on (Jimbo Fisher, Nick Saban, Art Briles, etc.). It is perfect timing for Strong. Louisville will be in a transition year, heading into the ACC. Also, star QB Teddy Bridgewater is declaring early for the NFL draft, which is a tough replacement.
1/2/14: The Mack Brown Era at Texas is finally over. Texas played Oregon in the Alamo Bowl, and unfortunately, were blown out. But this game was more of paying respect to Brown in his 16 years as head coach. Brown actually may have been a victim of his own success. He revitalized the program and took them to two BCS Championship Games, winning one. Pundits now call the Texas job the best in college football, however, the expectations are sky-high. The Longhorns can cross Jimbo Fisher off of their wish list, as he just signed an extension to stay at Florida State.
12/26/13: Now that the media hype has worn off on will head coach Mack Brown be back next season (not as head coach), the speculation is at full tilt on who will be his successor. Nick Saban is out. San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh says he is not interested. In fact, it is hard to find someone who says that he is interested in the job. Reports recently say that Jon Gruden has interest, but that would be a flashy hire and may not be in the best interest of the program. The truth is that while it is a great job, the expectations are so high that it is almost impossible to succeed immediately.
12/19/13: After a week of intense speculation, information and misinformation, there appears to finally be resolution to Mack Brown's status as head coach of the University of Texas. Brown officially announced his resignation from the position last weekend. He will coach one more game - the Alamo Bowl against Oregon on December 30th in San Antonio, Texas. Now the speculation will run on his successor. Nick Saban just signed an extension with Alabama, so he is likely out of the running. Other names may include Jimbo Fisher (Florida State), Art Briles (Baylor), and Todd Graham (Arizona State).
12/12/13: For a few hours, the stars seemed to align and there was a chance that Texas could be the unlikely winner of the Big 12 Conference. Oklahoma summoned their best game of the year to knock off Oklahoma State in the Bedlam Game, meaning all Texas had to do was beat Baylor. Unfortunately, Baylor won that game and earned a birth in the Fiesta Bowl. The Longhorns, instead, will play in the Valero Bowl in San Antonio on December 30th. It should be an interesting matchup though, as Texas will play the Oregon Ducks and essentially have a homefield advantage.
12/5/13: The Longhorns are a team that many would have you think are not very good and are fighting for a bowl appearance this year. But that is not reality. After hammering Texas Tech 41-16 on Thanksgiving, UT is 8-3 overall and 7-1 in the Big 12. That actually means they have a chance to win the Big 12 Championship and make a BCS Bowl Game appearance (likely the Fiesta Bowl). Their only Big 12 loss was to Oklahoma State. If Texas can beat #9 Baylor in the season finale, then they will be at worst second in the conference, and can win outright should OSU fall to Oklahoma. Worst case scenario is the Alamo Bowl, which is not such a bad landing spot after the team started 1-2. Of course, there is always the possibility of Texas vs. Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl - which would be a great game for any college football fan.

Cleveland kidnapper Ariel Castro may have died from auto-erotic asphyxiation, not suicide, and two prison guards falsified logs documenting their observation of him in the hours before he died, the state said Thursday.
Castro's pants and underwear were pulled down to his ankles when he was found, leading the state to forward those facts to the state highway patrol to consider the possibility of auto-erotic asphyxiation, according to the report from the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.
The report suggests – but does not conclude – that Castro may have died as the result of auto-erotic asphyxiation, whereby individuals achieve sexual satisfaction by briefly choking themselves into unconsciousness.

The man who held three women captive in his home for nearly a decade before one escaped has been found dead and is believed to have committed suicide, a prison official said.
Ariel Castro, 53, was found hanging in his cell around 9:20 p.m. Tuesday at the Correctional Reception Center in Orient, a community located south of Columbus in central Ohio, JoEllen Smith, Department of Rehabilitation and Correction spokesman, said early Wednesday.
Prison medical staff performed CPR before Castro was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 10:52 p.m.

The Cleveland house of horrors where convicted kidnapper Ariel Castro kept three women captive for a decade went under the bulldozer Wednesday morning.
And there to watch it fall: survivor Michelle Knight, carrying a bouquet of yellow balloons in a symbolic moment of triumph now that she and the other survivors, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus, move forward to reclaim their lives.
The razing occurs less than a week after Castro, 53, was sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years.

When Amanda Berry gave birth to her daughter on Dec. 25, 2006, the baby was not breathing. Ariel Castro, whose DNA proved he was the baby's father, turned to Michelle Knight and threatened to kill her if she didn't save the baby. According to new court documents, Michelle breathed into the baby's mouth and "miraculously, the baby survived."
And during Ariel Castro's hearing on Thursday, she proved to be a hero again when she delivered a powerful victim impact statement.
"I cried every night. I was so alone. I worried about what would happen to me and the other girls every day. Days never got shorter. Days turned into nights, nights turned into days. The years turned into eternity. I knew nobody cared about me. He told me that my family didn't care," Knight explained through tears. "Nobody should ever have to go through what I went through."

A Cleveland man accused of holding three women captive in his home for about a decade has agreed to plead guilty in a deal to avoid the death penalty.
Ariel Castro entered the new plea Friday. In exchange, prosecutors said the 53-year-old Castro would be sentenced to life without parole plus 1,000 years.
Castro had been charged in a 977-count indictment.

Charles Ramsey says that helping to rescue three women who were allegedly held captive for a decade has backfired financially.
"I had a job, I was paying rent and I had no bills. I was trying to accumulate some [savings]," he told the Daily Mail. "Now I can't get a job," he says, adding he can't hold down work due to the attention he receives.
"I'm going to try to get a job. Just give me a job. I'll take a picture with you, fine," he says, adding that he'd like to work in food services, perhaps as a cook. "Just pay me, that's all. I'm borrowing money from my relatives."

When Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight reunited July 2 to record a video thanking supporters, they could not hold back their emotions.
"They cried and hugged. They have genuine happiness to be alive, to be out there, to just BE," Chris Kelly, the lawyer managing the Cleveland Courage Fund on behalf of the women, says in this week's PEOPLE.
In the video that posted Tuesday on YouTube, they thank family, friends and complete strangers for the outpouring of support they've received since escaping alleged kidnapper Ariel Castro after a decade in captivity. Castro has pleaded not guilty to 329 counts including 139 charges of rape.

A man accused of holding Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight captive in his Cleveland home for about a decade pleaded not guilty Wednesday to hundreds of charges, including rape and kidnapping.
Ariel Castro is charged with kidnapping the three women and keeping them – sometimes restrained in chains – along with a 6-year-old girl he fathered with one of the women.
Castro, 52, didn't speak during the arraignment, which lasted less than a minute. He stood motionless, dressed in an orange prison outfit, and looked toward the floor as the plea was entered.

Trojan scan is a simple shell script that allows for simple but relatively effective checking for trojans, rootkits and other malware that may be using your server and network for unwanted (and possibly illegal) purposes. It works by listing all processes that use the Internet with the lsof command (using -Pni flags). This list is then transformed into signatures in the form of process_name:port_number:user. These signatures then are matched against the allowed process defined in the configuration. If any signatures of running processes are found that do not match the allowed signatures, an email report is sent including ps, ls, and optional lsof output.
The WebReboot Plugin for Nagios is a suite of commands that can be used within Nagios to monitor a server and take corrective action if necessary via the WebReboot line of products. For example, the plugin can be used to alert you if a host is powered down, versus simply not responding to network requests. Likewise, it can be used to reboot a server if a host fails to respond to ping, or to shut down a server when a critical temperature threshold is exceeded. The commands can be mixed-and-matched with all existing Nagios commands, maximizing total network coverage.

Michelle Williams was nominated for a 2012 SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for her performance as Marilyn Monroe in the film 'My Week With Marilyn.' Her co-star, Kenneth Branagh, also received an acting nod for his role as Sir Laurence Olivier.
'I am honored to be nominated alongside the unparalleled Kenneth Branagh,' Williams said in a statement. 'Inhabiting a woman as renowned as Marilyn was a wonderful challenge, so to receive this sort of support from my peers is very moving indeed. Marilyn herself always approached her performances with such dedication and intelligence and a talent that defied explanation. I hope we were able to shed some light on those often overlooked aspects of her. Thank you so much to The Weinstein Company for all of their incredible support, and their continued devotion to independent films like ours.'
'My Week With Marilyn' is based on the week in 1965 that British writer Colin Clark worked as Monroe's assistant while she was filming 'The Prince and the Showgirl' with Olivier in the United Kingdom in the summer of 1956. British actor Eddie Redmayne plays Clark.

Guardian Analytics, a fraud prevention services provider, introduced a new fraud detection solution called FraudMAP ACH. Similar to Guardian Analytics' online and mobile fraud detection solutions, FraudMAP ACH examines ACH transactions for anomalies that may indicate fraud and flags them for further review, the company said in a statement.
The FraudMAP ACH solution is the first to analyze behavior for fraud prevention for ACH transactions. The solution identifies high risk transactions and batches from large ACH files, eliminating the need to manually comb through reports looking for anything out of the ordinary. The solution, Guardian Analytics said, helps payment staff focus on the most suspicious transactions by alerting them to the most unusual activity and providing them with details about clients' payment history.
Guardian Analytics pointed to a list of best business practices for securing ACH transactions recently released by NACHA, an electronic payments association, that emphasized evaluating anomalous transactions as part of securing electronic payments. The best practices were designed to help financial institutions implement FFIEC guidelines for processing electronic payments.
"With ACH transaction volumes growing and criminals more eloquently tampering with ACH files, financial institutions are expending significant resources monitoring for fraudulent transactions and in many cases failing," Craig Priess, vice president of Products and Business Development at Guardian Analytics, said in the statement. "FraudMAP ACH fundamentally changes both the manner in which and how successfully a financial institution manages ACH payments risk."

Akustica has announced the expansion of its microphone product portfolio with the addition of a new analog MEMS microphone.
Designed specifically to meet the requirements of mobile handset manufacturers, the AKU340 is a high-performance analog microphone that utilizes established surface-micromachining MEMS technology developed by Bosch. The solution measures 2.5x3.35x1.0mm, and offers acoustic performance with 63dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low frequency recording with a reduction in sensitivity of less than 5dB at 50Hz. With its tight sensitivity matching of just +/-2dB between microphones, the AKU340 is for use in microphone array applications where more uniform microphones lead to increased performance of noise suppression algorithms.
The AKU340 is sampling to lead customers now and will be ramping to mass production in the third quarter of 2012. The AKU340 is available at US$1.34 per unit in 1K-unit quantities.

Board directs alternative approach to Division I certification: No schools will enter the Division I Athletics Certification Program to give the Committee on Athletics Certification time to develop an alternative approach to institutional accountability for athletics programs. Read more »
By Michelle Brutlag Hosick
No schools will enter the Division I Athletics Certification Program to give the Committee on Athletics Certification time to develop an alternative approach to institutional accountability for athletics programs.
The Division I Board of Directors decided Thursday that those in the beginning stages of the third cycle will continue with the certification process but will be allowed to opt for an abbreviated process if the staff determines that the self-study identified few negative issues.
In January, President Mark Emmert directed the NCAA staff to review the nearly two-decade-old certification program with an eye toward reducing the burden on institutions, increasing cost-effectiveness and improving the overall value.
Officials estimate that the entire athletics certification experience costs each Division I member about $300,000 and requires an average of 400 hours of campus committee and other personnel time.
The recommendations approved by the Board charge the Division I Committee on Athletics Certification with the development of the new program, including an outline of a new approach to certification that is managed by the institution, rooted in technology and outcome-based (meaning schools with no or minor issues would experience a more streamlined process than schools with more significant issues).
Board members were keenly interested in a certification process that would still have some accreditation outcome and would keep the student-athlete experience at the forefront.
The gathering and assessing of institutional information would be entirely electronic and produce "indicator" products similar to the already-existing financial dashboard indicators. The reports would provide benchmark data in four areas: student-athlete experience, academics, finances (incorporating existing financial dashboard data) and diversity/inclusion.
The Committee on Athletics Certification will consider a program that would:
The committee will engage the membership for feedback throughout its review. The membership will be asked for input on the mission and purpose of the new program, whether or not it should be a certification/accreditation program or simply a self-study, consequences for not meeting minimum standards, the roles of the committee and the NCAA staff in the new program and whether or not external review should be an element of the process.
Modifications to the certification program would require legislative changes. The committee will provide reports to the Board in October 2011 and April 2012, with possible legislative proposals sent to the Board no later than October 2012. The committee's goal is to have Board-sponsored legislative proposals ready for membership consideration during the 2012-13 legislative cycle.
The recommendations will include a phased-in approach that allows for time to develop the necessary technology, educate the membership and implement the new program.
No active Division I members will begin the athletics certification process from Aug. 1, 2011 until Aug. 1, 2013. Reclassifying members will remain subject to all athletics certification legislation throughout the moratorium period.

Passports are an especially great value for regional residents that can readily visit our Trail more than once, enabling them to explore all of the many participating wineries across multiple weeks. One time visitors to the region that plan on visiting at least 8-10 wineries will likely also find this product to be a good value. If your plan is to visit fewer than 8 wineries, than it is probably wise to not purchase the Passport, and instead pay the incremental tasting fees that are common to most of wineries in the region. These passport programs are not valid for groups of 8 or more people.
Please plan on purchasing your passport upon your arrival, at one of the participating wineries during it's duration, as they are not sold online. Please visit the Passport Program pages to learn more about our passprt programs or call our office during regular business hours, Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m, toll-free 877-536-2717.

When I smelled this first, I knew I had to have it. It is a bit of a masculine scent, but in reality I couldn't imagine a man wearing the fragrance. As you can tell from the name, this is supposed to be Gucci's signature fragrance. It is my signature fragrance as well. Seems like something Katherine Hepburn would wear. Elegant but strong. I wear it when I go out at night mostly. The scent stays with you a long time. The longer you wear it you get the different notes of the fragrance. Very good quality.

Very good, complex smell, based on classic patchouli & musk, but unfortunatelly it will pass unnoticed in any but the most intimate settings, as it stays way too close to the skin.

Backflow deadline looms
Date: June 10, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
After more than two years, several water-pressure problems and two extended deadlines, the town's controversial backflow-prevention ordinance implementation deadline is set for Tuesday, June 30.
Or is it?
After learning that approximately 331 town water users have yet to install a backflow-prevention device before the deadline, Mayor Lee Rothenberg requested that the ordinance be discussed at the Town Commission's 2 p.m. Thursday, June 18 regular workshop.
"We need to look at how many still need to be done, what their circumstances are and collectively decide what to do about it," Rothenberg said.
Rothenberg made the request at the Monday, June 1 regular meeting, after Commissioner Peter O'Connor suggested that a certified letter sent out to non-compliant water users was "rather threatening."
The letter warns water customers that if a backflow-prevention device isn't installed by the end of the month, the town may shut off their water after 14 days.
Said O'Connor: "I implore the town manager that before we implement the actions of this ordinance, we be absolutely certain our data is correct."
The Longboat Observer obtained a list of the non-compliant water users. Nine homeowners and business owners out of 17 who were contacted by The Observer said they were either in the process of installing a backflow-prevention device or already had one installed.
Although some of the data on the list is incorrect, Public Works Director Juan Florensa said there's a good reason for it.
"Some residents pulled permits for backflows months ago, but their plumber never turned in a completion of work certification form to the Planning, Zoning and Building Department," Florensa said. "We are finding that there may be less people in non-compliance than we originally thought, and that's a good thing."
Despite the decrease in non-compliance, some commissioners are concerned about the strict requirements of the ordinance, especially at a time when many Key residents have left for the summer months.
The Town Commission unanimously agreed to extend the ordinance deadline to June 30 after hearing in December that 1,141 water users had yet to install one or more backflow-prevention devices on their property.
The controversial ordinance — which has been under review and discussed since 2007 before being approved last year — will implement a routine control system Key-wide to detect and manage water cross-connections and prevent the backflow of contaminants into the town's water system.
The ordinance, created to comply with federal and state health department standards, calls for all town water users who don't have a backflow-prevention device to install one or face fines of up to $250 per day.
But the commission agreed to change the fine from $250 per day to $50 per day last year after staff reported that a water user could easily accrue $3,500 in 14 days before the town could shut the water off.
But, although the fines have been reduced, shutting the water off to vacant homes is still allowed.
"The danger could be that some of these people are gone for the summer, and they will come back to brown lawns," O'Connor said.
Florensa, however, said certified letters were sent to the properties in question and the address on record for each property owner.
Florensa also said that at the end of the month, his staff would be visiting each home to confirm whether a backflow-prevention device is in place.
"We will make every effort to help property owners comply before starting the clock for fines and water shutoffs," Florensa said. "We are doing our best to help every resident and business owner."
Residents and business owners can also ask for personal extensions, as long as they are making an effort to comply with the ordinance.
Don Roberts, owner of The Centre Shops, and Howard Rooks, owner of Avenue of the Flowers Town Plaza II, were glad to hear that.
Both business owners are still getting quotes for multiple backflow-prevention devices that are needed on their properties.
"I have to come up with more than $3,000 worth of backflows for The Centre Shops," said Roberts, who said a jackhammer will have to break up one of his concrete sidewalks to perform the work. "It's an unexpected expense in a tough economic climate."
Despite the issues that remain as the deadline approaches, Commissioner George Spoll hopes that the deadline is not extended for a third time.
"I got a lot of criticism from people who installed backflows and didn't like that we gave out extensions," Spoll said. "If we keep extending this, we will lose credibility."
