Phillip Sims isn't used to losing football games.
The Virginia redshirt sophomore quarterback only lost once in his final two years at Oscar Smith High School in Chesapeake, and he spent last year as the back-up quarterback on Alabama's BCS national title team.
But now Sims and his Virginia teammates are in the midst of a five-game losing streak, after getting beat 27-20 at home by Maryland last Saturday.
"As competitors, we all want to win," Sims told reporters on Monday. "But no man ever went through life without adversity. So everybody has to face adversity, and it's something that, I'm facing it, we're facing it as a team, and we'll make it through this."
Like his quarterback, coach Mike London has tried to remain positive as the losses have piled up. But even London confessed on Monday that his patience has been tested at times this season.
"We're not where we want to be by any stretch of the imagination," he said. "But I know that doing the right things are part of the process of even getting through these trying times right now."
You guys that know me - my priorities are faith, family and football," London added. "A lot of times what I rely on is the ability to know that things like that that happen, that occur, it's just one more step in the process of trying to get this program to where I envision it, to where it can be."
The 2-5 Cavaliers host 3-3 Wake Forest on Saturday at Scott Stadium. Virginia enters the game averaging almost 500 yards-per-game over its past three losses, but only 25 points in those games.
"If you look at this statistically, we've actually been playing pretty well. If you looked at stats alone, you'd have thought we'd won these games," said sophomore defensive tackle Chris Brathwaite. "But we're showing penalties, things that we can control that we just need to take care of during the games. So I feel like we're pretty close to getting over this hump."

How You're Being Fooled by the Numbers
Charles Seife - Author
- Paperback: $16.00 add to cart
From the author of Zero, comes this "admirable salvo against quantitative bamboozlement by the media and the government" (The Boston Globe)
In Zero, Charles Seife presented readers with a thrilling account of the strangest number known to humankind. Now he shows readers how the power of skewed metrics-or "proofiness"- is being used to alter perception in both amusing and dangerous ways. Proofiness is behind such bizarre stories as a mathematical formula for the perfect butt and sprinters who can run faster than the speed of sound. But proofiness also has a dark side: bogus mathematical formulas used to undermine our democracy-subverting our justice system, fixing elections, and swaying public opinion with lies. By doing the real math, Seife elegantly and good-humoredly scrutinizes our growing obsession with metrics while exposing those who misuse them.

Product Description
Mintage of only 5,000 coins!
Sealed in original plastic from the mint! Taurus is the second sign of the Zodiac and is shown as a Bull. The reverse displays a detailed depiction of a single maple leaf. To the right of the maple leaf's stem is a privy mark of the Taurus. This coin is definitely a collector's item and would make a great gift for the Taurus in your life.
The sign of Taurus (April 20 - May 20):
Taurus, the second sign of the Zodiac, is all about reward. Unlike the Aries' love of the game, Taurus loves the rewards of the game. Think physical pleasures and material goods, for those born under this sign revel in delicious excess. They are also a tactile lot, enjoying a tender, even sensual, touch. Taureans adore comfort and like being surrounded by pleasing, soothing things. Along these lines, they also favor a good meal and a fine wine. The good life in all its guises, whether the arts or art of their own making (yes, these folks are artistic as well), is heaven on Earth to the Taurean-born.
It's the Bull that serves as the Taurean's mascot, and along with that comes the expectation that these folks are bull-headed and stubborn. This sign has a Fixed Quality attached to it after all, so expect that things will occasionally grind to a halt. That said, Taureans don't start out with the intention of getting stuck. They simply want to get things done, and it's that steady, dogged persistence that winds up being viewed as stubbornness. Bulls are actually among the most practical and reliable members of the Zodiac, and they are happy to plod along, as it were, in pursuit of their goals. The good news for Bulls is that once they get to the finish line, they'll swaddle themselves in material goods. A self-indulgent beast? Perhaps, but if you toiled as laboriously as these folks do, you'd need some goodies, too.

ModeShape 4.0.0.Alpha2 is now available. Please consider testing this release to help us verify new features and fixes. See the release notes for details of what's changed. There is also 4.0-specific documentation documentation.
ModeShape 3.7.2.Final is the latest stable release. Please upgrade to this version if you're using any of the 3.x releases, or if you are using ModeShape in production. If you're still using 2.x, please consider migrating to ModeShape 3.7.2.Final.
ModeShape is a distributed, hierarchical, transactional, and consistent data store with support for queries, full-text search, events, versioning, references, and flexible and dynamic schemas. It is very fast, highly available, extremely scalable, and it is 100% open source and written in Java. Clients use the (JSR-283) standard Java API for content repositories (aka, JCR) or ModeShape's REST API, and can query content through JDBC and SQL.
ModeShape is perfect for data that is organized in a tree-like hierarchical structure where related data is stored close together, where navigation to related content is just as common and important as fast key-based lookups or queries. The hierarchical organization is similar to a file system, making ModeShape a natural for storing files annotated with metadata. ModeShape can even automatically extract the structured information within the files so that clients can navigate or use typed queries to find files satisfying complex, structurally-oriented criteria. ModeShape is an excellent store for data with a complex schema, since the schema can vary over the database and evolve over time. ModeShape is the perfect distributed data store for all kinds of applications, including repositories, content management systems, historical data services, provisioning and governance systems, and metadata management systems.
ModeShape supports all JCR 2.0 required features:
- repository acquisition
- authentication
- reading/navigating
- query
- export
- node type discovery
- permissions and capability checking
and most of the JCR 2.0 optional features:
- writing
- import
- observation
- workspace management
- access control management
- versioning
- locking
- node type management
- same-name siblings
- orderable child nodes
- shareable nodes
- mix:etag, mix:created and mix:lastModified mixins with autocreated properties
- event journal (only in 4.x)
ModeShape supports five query languages: the JCR-SQL2 and JCR-JQOM query languages defined in JSR-283, the XPath, JCR-SQL query languages defined in JCR 1.0 (JSR-170), and a full-text search-engine-like language.
- Use the JCR API to access your repositories
- Use the RESTful API from other clients and services
- Use the WebDAV Server to access files and folders in the repository from compatible clients and services
- Manage any kind of content, be they files or un/structured data
- Automatically sequence uploaded content to extract the useful bits into structured content using our built-in or custom sequencers
- Federate content owned by external systems into your repository.
- Cluster multiple ModeShape instances

Sessions are a very complicated part of PHP, and it is no surprise that the smarter website attacks are carried out on sessions. Most of these attacks involve one user impersonating another, or, more to the point, "hijacking" the other user's session data. As most experienced developers know, exploiting session data is an easy way into most low-to-medium security level websites--after all, that is how most website login systems work.
From a hacker's point of view, there should only be a few ways to get in if you think about it carefully. However, they do--because most website developers do not really think about how they are setting things up. Ever used the session variable
? Ever wanted to use that but haven't gotten around to it? If you answered yes to one or more of the previous questions, this article is for you.
The most important part of an attempted security breach is obviously identifying the Session Identifier. This is the
part of
. In general there are three common ways of identifying a session identifier:
• Prediction
• Capture
• Fixation
Prediction has to do with guessing the session identifier. Smart developers will use PHP's native Session Mechanism to set the session identifier, as this is so totally random there is hardly a chance anyone could guess what it is. On the other hand, my first guess would be
. I bet I'd score at least one in six.
The most common type of session attack is Capture, and there are many different approaches. Most websites or applications use either $_GET or cookies in order to store session information. There have been a few browser security breaches with regard to cookies, but these have been mostly Internet Explorer, and cookies are slightly less exposed than GET variables, thus as a website or application developer you might want to ensure better security by building your session identifiers into cookies.
The simplest method of getting a valid session identifier is by using Fixation. It is not very difficult to defend against, but if you have built a website or applacation that has nothing more than
as its session handler, you are in trouble. To demonstrate fixation we use the following script:
Figure One
When you go to the script with your browser, you should see a 1 on the screen. Every time you refresh the page this should increment accordingly. To demonstrate session fixation, first make sure that you delete your cookies and session variables, then go to this script with ?PHPSESSID=1234 in the url. Next, with a completely different browser, go to the url again with ?PHPSESSID=1234 appended. You will notice that you do not see 1 output on your first visit, but it continues the session you previously initiated.
Why is this a problem? Most session fixation attacks simply use a link or a protocol-level redirect to send a user to a remote site with a session identifier appended to the URL. The user likely won't notice, since the site will behave exactly the same. Because the attacker chose the session identifier, it is already known, and this can be used to launch impersonation attacks such as session hijacking.
A simplistic attack like this is usually easy to prevent. The best way is to regenerate the session identifier if one does not exist for a specific user, as shown in fig2 below.
Figure Two
The problem with such a simplistic defense is that an attacker can simply initialize a session for a particular session identifier, and then use that identifier to launch the attack. To protect against this, remember that a session attack means nothing unless the user is logged in and has more priveleges than any other user. So, if we regenerate the session identifier only when there is a change in the user's permission level--for example, after verifying a username and password, we will have practically eliminated the risk of a successful session fixation attack.
The most common session attack, session hijacking, refers to all attacks that attempt to gain access to another user's session.
As with session fixation, if your session mechanism only consists of session_start(), you are in hot water, although it isn't as simple. Rather than focusing on how to keep the session identifier from being captured, we focus on complicating the session capture. The goal is to complicate impersonation, since every complication increases security. To do this, we examine what we need to do to successfully hijack a session. In each scenario we will assume that the session identifier has been compromised.
It is not smart to rely on anything at the TCP/IP level, such as an IP address, because these are lower level protocols that are not intended to accommodate activities taking place at the HTTP level. A single user can potentially have a different IP address for each request, and multiple users can potentially have the same IP address.
Figure Three
Only the Host header is required by HTTP/1.1, so it seems silly to rely on anything else. However, consistency is really all we need, because we're only interested in complicating impersonation without causing trouble for our real users.
Imagine that the previous request is followed by a request with a different User-Agent:
Figure Four
Figure Five
Now an attacker must not only present a valid session identifier, but also the proper User-Agent header associated with the session. This complicates things slightly, which is good for security.
Is there a way to improve on this? We know that the most common way to obtain cookie values is by exploiting a vulnerable browser such as Internet Explorer. These exploits involve the victim visiting the attacker's site, so the attacker will be able to obtain the correct User-Agent header. Something additional is necessary to protect against this situation.
Imagine if we required the user to pass the MD5 of the User-Agent in each request. An attacker could no longer just recreate the headers that the victim's requests contain, but it would also be necessary to pass this extra bit of information. While guessing the construction of this particular token isn't too difficult, we can complicate such guesswork by simply adding an extra bit of randomness to the way we construct the token:
Figure Six
Keeping in mind that we're passing the session identifier in a cookie, and this already requires that an attack be used to compromise this cookie (and likely all HTTP headers as well), we should pass this fingerprint as a URL variable. This must be in all URLs as if it were the session identifier, because both should be required in order for a session to be automatically continued (in addition to all checks passing).
In order to make sure that our real users aren't treated like criminals, simply prompt for a password if a check fails. If there is an error that incorrectly suspects a user of an impersonation attack, prompting for a password before continuing is the least offensive way to handle the situation.
There are many different ways of complicating impersonation and protecting your applications from session hijacking. Doing more than just
is a good step in the right direction! Always remember that making things difficult for criminals or vandals is always the aim of security.
Until Next Time--Happy Sessions!

Eve Ensler's latest effort to empower people is based on her bestselling novel I Am an Emotional Creature: The Secret Life of Girls Around the World. This powerful new play is made up of original monologues, irresistible songs, and music about and for girls. Placing their stories squarely center stage, it gives full expression to their secret voices and innermost thoughts, highlighting the diversity and commonality of the issues they face. Emotional Creature is a call, a reckoning, an education, an act of empowerment for girls, and an illumination for parents and for us all. It debuts in Berkeley following successful workshops in Johannesburg and Paris. Known for launching high-profile projects such as American Idiot and Passing Strange, Berkeley Rep is the perfect place to begin this journey.
"Emotional Creature is about being a girl in the world in 2012 and about discovering the girl in each of us," Ensler remarks. "It is about changing the verb from please to create or defy or resist or imagine. It is about traveling and dancing and refusing. It is about telling secrets and breaking taboos and building a posse. Where else would we begin this in America than Berkeley, in what other theatre than Berkeley Rep, which has a gorgeous history of pushing The Edge, engaging in social issues, and conjuring community. I am thrilled at the extraordinary, diverse, wildly talented, and committed actors, producers, and creative team – and of course our musical director Charl-Johan Lingenfelder and director Jo Bonney – who will take Emotional Creature to the next level."
"Eve Ensler is a force of nature," says Tony Taccone, artistic director of Berkeley Rep. "Her passion, joy, and complete commitment to the making of Emotional Creature were immediately apparent to me. She is dedicated to this almost antiquated idea that theatre can change lives – and she settles for nothing less. This show is more evidence of that idea. Ms. Ensler has found a way to give women, girls, and all of us an important opportunity to express ourselves in a creative and dynamic way. It's thrilling for us to be part of it."
Eve Ensler is the author of The Vagina Monologues, which has been translated into 48 languages and performed in over 140 countries, including sold-out runs off Broadway and on London's West End. Her experience performing that show inspired her to create V-Day, a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. Her other work includes plays such as The Good Body and Here, the memoir Insecure at Last, and the anthology A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant, and a Prayer, co-edited with Mollie Doyle.
Jo Bonney has directed world premieres for noted writers such as Alan Ball, Eric Bogosian, Culture Clash, Jessica Goldberg, Neil LaBute, Warren Leight, Lynn Nottage, Darci Picoult, Suzan Lori-Parks, José Rivera, Christopher Shinn, Diana Son, Naomi Wallace, and Michael Weller. At Berkeley Rep, she staged the world premiere of Danny Hoch's Jails, Hospitals & Hip Hop. Off Broadway, her production of Will Power's The Seven won the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical and her staging of Lanford Wilson's Fifth of July won the Lortel Award for Best Revival.

The story of art
Phaidon Press, Ltd., 1995 - 688 pagina's
The Story of Art, one of the most famous and popular books on art ever written, has been a world bestseller for over four decades. Attracted by the simplicity and clarity of his writing, readers of all ages and backgrounds have found in Professor Gombrich a true master, who combines knowledge and wisdom with a unique gift for communicating his deep love of the subject.
For the first time in many years the book has been completely redesigned. The illustrations, now in colour throughout, have all been improved and reoriginated, and include six fold-outs. The text has been revised and updated where appropriate, and a number of new artists have been incorporated. The bibliographies have been expanded and updated, and the maps and charts redrawn. The Story of Art has always been admired for two key qualities: it is a pleasure to read and a pleasure to handle. In these respects the new edition is true to its much-loved predecessors: the text runs as smoothly as ever, and the improved illustrations are always on the page where the reader needs them. In its new edition this classic work continues its triumphant progress for another generation and remains the title of first choice for all newcomers to art.

Chicago >Professional Sports >
Sports Stadiums & Athletic Fields >Wrigley Field
1060 W Addison St, Chicago, IL | Directions 6061341.947305 -87.656448
Neighborhoods: North Side, Wrigleyville
Sitting in the bleachers should be on every Chicagoan's bucket list. Leave in the 7th inning stretch and grab a seat at Goose Island.
We don't hear the "Go Cubs Go" winning song every game (or even most games), but there is nothing I love more than a Cubs game, a cold Bud Lite and a bison dog at the one and only Wrigley Field.
An American classic you gotta experience if in the city. Not a bad seat in the place!
Wrigley Field is an amazing stadium filled with history. Did you know that the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" filmed several scenes at the stadium? Totally cool stop on a famous movie location tour. Don't forget to order a hot dog!
To All The NaySayers... – I have been a Cubs fan since I was 5 years old. Nearly 30 years later, STILL a Cubs fan stuck in a world of Sox fans (Family and friends) I have stood my ground. I will defend the Cubs until I die... whether they win or lose... because that's the whole point of being a fan... the good and the bad.
You know, I've been sitting here, reading these comments, and for the naysayers... I have something to say.
First of all, do you go to the park for the bathrooms? Who does? I don't pay attention to the bathrooms as long as theyre clean. Don't use that as an argument for the field as a whole.
Secondly, does anyone remember the old Comiskey Park (or the newer one for that matter), or old Yankee Stadium? Yes, I've been to all three. Two of the three don't exist anymore - they were rebuilt....and yes, they were almost as bad as any OLD park. You cannot compare US ...whatever field... to Wrigley. When Comiskey was still standing (THE REAL ONE), then I would argue which was better. But please, if you don't like it, DON'T GO. I've been to Wrigley more times in the past few years than I have in to any other sports team in the Continental US... in my whole life. I'd pick Wrigley and its old feeling, to any of them.
I know someone that works security at Wrigley... and even before I did, I never ONCE felt unsafe. If you feel your children aren't safe there, then that's your problem. Don't bring them... thats what a TV is for. They take care of business, and just because one idiot security guard makes a mistake, doesn't mean they all do.
If you have the audacity to say we don't know the Cubs from the Bears, then you obviously talked to people that are just like you, fake fans... who don't know your head from a hole in the wall. Not ALL of us are drunks either. You'd know that if you talked to more than 4 people. If you don't like the food, bring your own, I do... because I like to eat before the game - and I bring my own water bottle too, because water is free.
I love my Cubs, and if you're going to sit here and compare the World Series titles to the Sox, then lets have a little fact check here. Yes, the Sox may have won a World Series title more recently, but they've done just as poorly as the Cubs have at getting into the playoffs since then. Also, if you check your facts, the Cubs have actually won MORE W.S. Titles than the Sox have. Look it up...
So people can say whatever they want, but this Cubs fan is TIRED of people saying things without a response. Say whatever you want, but expect TRUE Cubs fans to outnumber you completely.
BEST BALL FIELD IN THE WORLD – I'm only Sixteen so my word may not carry much weight with the older crowd but i love Wrigley Field and there is no other stadium where that many fans will show and support a team when its forty degrees out and raining. if you've got a problem Wrigley Field then go and get your head examined or leave it alone so others can enjoy it. i love the people and the team and i hope Wrigley stay exactly the same.
way overrated – Dirty place; rude people who try to pass as fans. Feared for my kids safety there. Least knowledgeable baseball crowd in the majors. Very unimpressive. Nothing but a tourist trap.
Best place ever. If you don't like it, there is something seriously wrong with you. – This is the best place to see a game in the country. It's nothing buty fun! And the area around it is amazing with hundreds of fun options for after the game. Whoever doesn't like Wrigley is out of their mind and should probably visit a shrink.
A Chicago landmark since 1914, this classic ballpark is a monument to the national pastime. – Overview
From ivy clinging to the outfield wall to the manually-operated scoreboard, Wrigley Field is the real deal. There isn't a bad spot in the intimate, 40,000-seat house, save for a few behind the supporting beams. Standard hot dogs, nachos, pretzels, peanuts and brats can be found at vendors sprinkled throughout the stadium. If you're looking for unconventional baseball fare, try one of the specialty stands or the resident sports bar, Sheffield Grill.
The Experience
The usually rowdy crowd keeps Wrigley lively with sacred traditions like throwing the opposing team's home run balls back onto the field and traditional outfield chants. Although the Cubs haven't reached a World Series since 1945, the loyal fans pack the place even in September.
Pretty much a dump – Man, I thought going to Wrigley was going to be a nice experience but it was horrible. The seats are cramped with very tight aisles, the food is absolutely horrible and extremely expensive, the Cubs never win and they haven't won a World Series since my great-grandma was still young, the parking is just awful and it costs around $50, plus the fans don't know the difference between the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago Bears. But, the thing that scared me the most was that I might get knocked uncoscious by falling concrete and lastly the bathrooms look like barnyards. It's like going on a farm. Horrible place and if you want a great atmosphere go to the South Side and watch a winning team.
GO CUBS GO!!! – Unless you're a die hard Sox fan who wouldn't root for the Cubs even if they do win the World Series (which we will... ... ...before I die), what's not to love about the Cubs. When someone mentions to out of towners the phrase "Chicago baseball", I gaurantee the first thing they'll say is "Cubs". They've been around since 1876 and according to my knowledge are THEE oldest league in the entire MLB, even older than the Phillies or the Red Sox. So ok, we haven't been to the World Series since 45, but hey who REALLY care; you're enjoying a Cubs game in the league's 2nd oldest ballpark (1st being Fenway). Speaking of the stadium itself, although it has gone through significant renovation throughout the years, it's one of the many symbols that puts Chicago on the map. It's history goes way back to 1914 when the Chicago Whales used to play Federal League baseball here before the Cubs moved in. Before "Da Bears" had Soldier Field to themselves, they played in Wrigley Field. Wrigley also was a venue for soccer tournaments in the old NASL days when the Chicago Sting called Wrigley home and even hosted the most anticipated concerts such as the most recent reunion of The Police. Who can remember back in the late 80s when Wrigley was FINALLY equipped with flood lights so the Cubs could play night games. Sure it's old and changes are being made almost every season these days, but it's home for Chicago baseball the way people remember it to be.
Best Ballpark! – As a Chicago native that now lives in North Carolina, I spent most of my teenage years sitting behind first base at Cubs Park. Those are the best memories of those years. Now when I go back that is the one place that I always try to go. We have the brand-new Turner field in Atlanta where I can go to see the Cubs play; but, I would rather drive the 10 additional hours to get to Wrigley Field. Turner Field is nice, but, it is sterile and not someplace to watch a REAL baseball game. They have mascots running around?? What's that about??
Parking? Who drives to Wrigley Field? There is more than enough public transport....
Food? Eat somewhere else or bring your own
Cramped seating? Try sitting in one of these newfangled stadiums....it's a whole lot worse!
The atmosphere is great, the baseball awesome and the fans the best.
An awesome landmark – I actually lived within walking distance of Wrigley during one summer. I live in San Francisco now and my memories of Wrigley are extremely fond. Even on a humid 90 plus degree summer I never got over being at a game at this great ballpark. I hope I can get back here soon some day even though here we have this new park that the Giants play at. I still am fond of Wrigley; I grew up in the midwest several hundred miles away and saw the Cubs on WGN with Harry Carrey announcing the games as a kid. What an awesome thrill it was to finally go to a game here. Don't get rid of this park Chicago; trust me you will regret it. It has it's annoying points but after not being here for a few years now I can't wait until I can get up some vacation time because I will come back to Wrigley for sure. Sometimes the new ballpark gets on my nerves because it's almost TOO new with flat panel plasma screens and sushi. Wrigley Field doesn't try to pretend to be a giant Wi Fi park or a winery or a high tech sports bar with a game playing in the background. This is were you go to WATCH the game because all that other stuff isn't here and that's a good thing. I wouldn't even complain about drinking an Old Style beer anymore.
Chicago's Team – I walk to Wrigley Field, so I can't say anything bad about the parking, I always grab a bite to eat on the walk down to the park, so I can't say anything bad about the food. They sell Labatt's Blue in the bleachers, so I can't say anything bad about the beer. I pay attention to the game while it's in progress and not the people around me, so I can't say anything bad about the "fans" (though I have made several friends just shootin the stuff talkin bout everything between innings). I go to Wrigley Field to watch 9 innings of baseball, that's what I paid for, and that's what I get. The Cubs win some, the Cubs lose some, heck, that's everyone's life story. If you don't go to a Cubs game, (or any baseball game for that matter) to watch a baseball game, then don't go. Leave baseball to the fans of the game. There's no place like Wrigley.

Smarter Food
Analytics create better systems to grow, distribute and purchase what we eat
By 2050, there will be more than 9 billion people on the planet.1 And because they will all need to eat, food production will have to double today's output to keep up.2 But we aren't very efficient with our food right now. Up to 40 percent of all food produced in developed nations never makes to a human stomach.3
While looking for ways to increase the farming capacity has gotten bulk of the global attention, it would be just as important to modernize farming in a way that minimizes usage of natural resources and make decisions based on scientific models instead of leaving it to chance. We need to be smarter about food: how we grow it, harvest it, distribute it and consume it.
The resources we use for our food supply–land, water and most forms of energy–are not only finite, they are at risk. Fortunately, there is a bounty of one resource that we can use to be more efficient: information. Using big data and analytics, we can create smarter food systems across the value chain.
Analytics and agriculture
You might not think of farmers as heavy users of information technology. But from the days of the earliest almanacs, farmers have used historical data to help improve their yield. Now a variety and velocity of structured and unstructured data can help today's agribusinesses create a more informed picture—from things such as sensors used to gather soil and weather information, posts to social media sites, and GPS signals, to name a few. New technologies, such as predictive analytics and commodity price optimization, can also help farmers anticipate and adjust profitably to marketplace, weather and other conditions that typically leave them vulnerable.
Watch the video (00:03:15)
Deep Thunder and precision agriculture
Watch the video (00:03:15)
This idea of "precision agriculture" drives projects such as Deep Thunder by IBM Research. Measurements of the weather and soil, including data from sensors dotting a farm, multi-spectral images of fields taken from satellites or airplanes, characteristics of irrigation systems, requirements for fertilizer and pesticide coupled with precise weather predictions—all can help optimize a farmer's decisions about what to plant, when to plant, when to water, when to fertilize and when to harvest.
Sustenance and sustainability
When you eat a carrot, you also consume the resources that went into growing it: water, fuel, electricity.
Estimates show that the production of one calorie of food requires an average of 7–10 calories of input. Of course, this varies depending on the crop, from three calories for plant crops to 35 calories for beef.4 By leveraging sensor and traceability data, we can now remotely monitor and determine when someone has been engaged in unsustainable farming practices. Consumer products companies can have the visibility into their suppliers operations and influence them to make better decisions that have positive impact for all of us.
Sun World, a California fruit producer, uses an analytics system to analyze its water usage—as well as crop yields, farm labor costs, growing patterns, and an array of sales and distribution processes—to gain insights that enable it to make faster and better decisions in response to changing conditions.
Looking at historical weather, crop yield and irrigation data, Sun World has been able to modify operations to take advantage of natural weather patterns as well as gain a better understanding of the exact amount of water each type of crop needs. For example, increasing the use of drip irrigation systems has cut the company's water use by 9 percent over four years.5 They have also been able to maximize profit for each harvest by having a better understanding of the demand and market forces that could influence how their products will be consumed.
Safety and the supply chain
Imagine knowing exactly where your snack time apple came from and just how long ago it was picked. That possibility is closer every day. The phrase "farm to fork" is more commonplace now, as is the demand for traceability as food products make their way through the supply chain. Knowing a food's origin also supports the "buy local" movement, cutting down on transportation costs and shortening the supply chain.
But even a locally sourced produce item stands a good chance of spoiling before being purchased. In an effort to appear bountiful, grocers often overstock shelves regardless of demand, resulting in anywhere from 5 to 15 percent of produce being discarded due to spoilage... produce that has used water, labor, gas and packaging… only to be thrown away.
Fairway Market in New York wants to reduce that number. They are working with IBM to help make better use of the data about food production and distribution to put more power in the hands of the consumer, as well as help grocers better match their inventory to demand, reducing waste and costs. By sharing this information with their consumers, they can also provide valuable insights to reduce waste once items have been purchased.
And tracking isn't only about the source of the food. It's about keeping consumers safe. There are 76 million cases of food-borne illnesses every year in the United States alone. Growers, distributors and retailers can use the mass of information about their processes to help reduce that number.
For example, Germany's METRO Group's in-store meat-tracking system used to be entirely manual. Expiration date monitoring was done visually—a time-consuming and error-prone process, with 800 to 1,000 meat trays inside the self-service counter of a single store at any given time. With a traceability solution from IBM and Frequentz as the backbone of its new tracking solution, meat trays are now tagged with radio frequency identification tags. Each meat tray is visible during its complete in-store life cycle, from packaging to point of sale.
In the smarter food ecosystem, efficiency is delicious. Grocers, vendors, suppliers and purveyors all share data from farm to shelf to cart. Watch the video (00:06:11)
In China, pork is a major pillar of the economy in the Shandong Province, one of the country's most important agricultural regions. To limit the impact of porcine diseases and prevent tainted pork from being sold to consumers, experts from IBM China Development Lab and China's National Engineering Research Center for Agricultural Products Logistics have created a pork monitoring and tracking system. It can extract and store information from millions of interconnected sensors. The system brings an unprecedented level of accountability and efficiency to every stage of the pork production process, from production to distribution to retailer.

Preservation provided a real life example of acid-base chemistry to local eighth grade students by demonstrating how the Library neutralizes acidic papers and books with an alkaline (basic) agent.
Several prints required conservation treatment for the Library's exhibit, Sakura: Cherry Blossoms as Living Symbols of Friendship. One treatment provided an opportunity to investigate traditional colorants used in Japanese color woodblock printing.
More about special collections conservation
In 2012, the Library implemented the new enhanced version of the Advanced Bindery Library Exchange (ABLE™ 7.0) web-based software, which replaced the outdated Library Automated Retrieval System (LARS).
|| Emergency Management ||
Natural and manmade disasters present various threats to collections, from interrupting building environmental control systems to total loss. Preparedness is the best protection against damage and loss.
More about Emergency Preparedness
Even the best plans cannot eliminate all threats; emergency preparedness always includes a plan for responding to emergencies and recovering affected collections.

Well, every weekend I get requests from town for about 20 pies...
They are probably wondering when your price increase is coming Wes.
WAIT! That's my veggee....HERE is the KAS. Sorry, eheheh.
My God, that looks amazing! Can you post your topping ingredients, by chance?
Sure! SalamiPepperoniLinguicaItalian Sausage (sweet)Mushrooms (I always use baby bellas)Green peppersBlack olivesOnionsMy favorite pizza.
Thanks! Where did you find the linguica? Been struggling with that one.
They sell it here in the grocery store.
Lol no one here at our walmart's even heard of it. They thought it was pig stomach!
I tried the Lydia RT clone recipe again this past Sunday. Same recipe, except I ran out of the Quaker Harina Preparada, so I opted for an alternative: Wal-Mart's flour tortilla mix. I used the same recipe and 24 refrigerated dough as before. This time, however, I baked it on a baking stone in my home oven since it was too cold out to be cooking anything on my 2stone. I also went to my gold standard of Italian sausage (Simeca's) and mushrooms for toppings. Results were excellent! See pics below.
MEWhat's your bake protocol for the 2stone and the cheater dough? I tried to find your info here but my eyes glazed over scanning this thread to find out?First? what is your 2 stone set up? It looks like you typically use a screen? what temps for the stone and bake times? are you using an IR thermometer? are you taking the chamber temps as well? Have you discovered what the max. and min. temps are for this method?
I think this may be the link that Lydia intended:http://www.amazon.com/Smoked-Linguica-Sausage-lb-Pkgs/dp/B00028LGAS/ref=sr_1_2?s=grocery&ie=UTF8Peter
Ooops, thanks Peter. I can't figure how to post these links right. I copy and paste from the address bar, but maybe I need to be doing something else.
LOL..looks like I'm having one of those days... FONT codes everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Btw, this past weekend I tried Aimless Ryan's Tommy's pizza recipe. http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,12446.msg281349.html#msg281349It is similar to your RT recipe. However, his dough is more dry (43%) than your recipe, and he only uses 2 layers instead of 3.

This peptide is an antagonist variant of OVA (257-264). It induces positive selection on the beta 2M (-/-), and negative selection on beta 2M (+/-) background. This peptide was used to study the ability of the wild-type or mutant TCRs to transduce signals leading to positive or negative selection, and was utilized in several thymocyte development studies. E1 presentation leads to Egr-1 induction and ERK phosphorylation.
