Progress Notes
Lisa Mallonee (top center), with dental hygiene graduate Haley Hays and BUMC dietetic intern Ryan Whitcomb. Mallonee,
If the adage "You are what you eat" holds true, what does that mean for your teeth?
In these Q-and-A sessions, we take a closer look at some pressing topics within the dental profession and just what they mean to Texas A&M Health Science Center Baylor College of Dentistry. From TAMHSC-BCD initiatives to hot-button questions, we consult the college's own subject matter experts to get their input.
This issue includes the perspectives of Lisa Mallonee, associate professor in the Caruth School of Dental Hygiene. She's been a faculty member since 2001, and for most of that time, Mallonee — also a licensed dietitian with a master's degree in public health and coordinated degree in nutrition — has maintained another distinctive job responsibility. It's one that she created herself.
From August through May, Mallonee instructs dietetic interns fulfilling the required 1,200 hours for licensure through the Dietetic Internship Program at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas. For a few afternoons each semester since fall 2004, she has brought each of the eight dietetic interns to the dental hygiene clinic one-by-one, where they get face time with her, a dental hygiene student and patient during a three-hour session.
The clinical rotation carries multiple benefits: The dietetic interns have the opportunity to learn about the comprehensive preventive care provided during the dental hygiene visit and get a taste for just how much diet and oral health are connected. In turn, Mallonee's dental hygiene students gain a few pointers on how to ask their patients detailed diet-related questions and integrate this information into the oral disease risk assessment.
Mallonee's clinical rotation with the dietetic interns continues to grow, with an expansion to the Children's Medical Center dental clinic on the horizon. As she prepares for her largest clinical rotation class yet, boasting 12 dietetic interns, Mallonee shares some eye-opening facts about the interplay between nutrition and oral health and how dentists and dietitians can benefit from a little collaboration.
BDRO: It's incredible the number of health conditions that manifest themselves in the mouth. What are the top three nutritional issues affecting oral health today?
1. Obesity – I would say the number one issue is obesity. Obesity affects dentistry because the same foods that create a cariogenic environment in the mouth contribute to Americans' expanding waist lines. A calorie-dense diet results in decreased nutrient intake, which lends itself to reduced immune function. There's evidence-based research that individuals with a higher body mass index have a higher incidence of inflammation in the mouth and an increased risk for periodontal disease. It has also been demonstrated that inflammatory biomarkers produced by fat cells contribute to insulin resistance and increased risk of Type 2 Diabetes. Diabetes, in turn, is known to increase the risk for periodontal disease.
2. Diet – Diet also plays a big role in oral health. Liquid sugar is the biggest thing as a profession that we can take a stand on. It's a small thing we can talk to our patients about. Even healthy foods can cause risk. Foods such as baked chips, pretzels and whole wheat bread are retentive and don't clear from the mouth as readily. Anything with carbonation or acid is going to contribute.
Juicing is a very big trend right now. Although a power-packed source of vitamins, when you're not eating the whole vegetable or fruit, it means reduced cleansing action from lack of mastication and greater erosive potential. "Grazing" or eating five- to-six small meals is a healthy habit, but it can wreak dental havoc. Since frequency of consumption can be a concern, patients should be educated on how often and how long teeth are exposed. There is no need to discourage these healthy choices; instead reinforce good oral hygiene in conjunction with eating habits.
3. Dentition – Another issue is dentition. If clients have altered dentition like partial or full dentures or missing teeth, that's going to affect their dietary choices. Typically, these individuals are not going to be eating fresh vegetables and fruits, and oftentimes meat is excluded. They're going to be eating a softer diet which can lead to increased risk of caries, and reduced immune function and healing properties in the mouth.
BDRO: Your work teaching the BUMC dietetic interns while they're on clinical rotation is one example of how to fuse dental and nutrition-based knowledge. Can you elaborate on some of the possibilities for interdisciplinary collaboration between the two professions?
Mallonee: I think there are tons of opportunities. Oral surgery, periodontal practices and even general practices would benefit from collaboration with a registered dietitian. In dentistry, we provide our patients with restorative, prosthodontic and surgical care but fail to arm them with dietary information important for proper healing and transition. I feel there is a need to be more proactive with providing necessary guidance for patients.
Pediatric dentistry is an area with opportunities between dietitians and dental practices, since educating the patient and the parents about good habits can carry over for a lifetime.
From a community perspective, I think there also are opportunities to work jointly with dietitians at WIC clinics and pregnancy centers for low-income mothers. Our general pregnant patient population would benefit as well! We can educate expectant mothers on good dietary choices for their oral health and how it can affect the developing fetus. Mothers need to be educated that good oral health starts before that first tooth cuts. We can stress the importance of wiping out the mouth after each feeding and of finding a first dental home by no later than twelve months of age. There are opportunities for us in the dental profession to educate these and many other patient populations.

LUBBOCK — Stephenville rallied from a 12-point deficit in the third quarter for a 75-73 double overtime victory against Abilene Wylie in a Class 3A Region I semifinal Friday at United Spirit Arena.The Yellow Jackets (15-14) trailed early after the Bulldogs (28-4) established a 10-point after the opening quarter. Stephenville struggled with ball control in the first half, turning the ball over seven times.The Yellow Jackets were led in scoring by 6-feet-3 guard Jarrett Stidham during the first half. The junior chipped in five points for Stephenville. He finished with 10 points.Junior guard Daron Davis helped the Bulldogs establish a 34-23 halftime lead by adding 13 first-half points. Davis finished with 24 points in the losing effort.Senior post Colby Brandon added 11 points off the bench to jumpstart a run in the third quarter for Stephenville. In the fourth quarter, senior guard Malik Taylor added five of his 24 points helping the Yellow Jackets rally to tie the game at 60-all and force overtime.Stephenville coach Jonathan Normand said the turning point involved him advising the Yellow Jackets to pick up the scoring.We had an eight-point deficit and I just told them we had a green-light offense right now, he said. Really thats not our No. 1 offense but when we did go to it, I dont know, it turned inside. So we got in attack mode, then we made a couple of shots which helps but we just changed our mentality, offensively, in the fourth.The offensive synergy carried into overtime for the Yellow Jackets and two late free throws by senior guard Grayson Sweet sealed the victory for Stephenville.The Yellow Jackets will meet Kennedale in the 3A Region I final on Saturday at the United Spirit Arena.

Bantam Chickens:
Most bantam chicken varieties have been bred to be small versions of standard chickens. Whereas a typical laying hen might weigh five to eight pounds, most bantams are rarely heavier than twenty-two ounces. Because its small size demands it, the bantam is a tough little chicken. An older bantam rooster will dominate younger standard cockerels in the flock, chasing them away from the hens. Because they are quick, bantams are also good foragers for insects. Unfortunately, they are usually good fliers and difficult to keep penned up if they don't want to be.
The bantam rooster may be small, but he has a big voice. He is a staunch, feisty defender of his hens and will even square off against the family dog. Bantam hens lay eggs about half the size of standard large eggs, with a higher proportion of yolk to albumin. Some bantam hens are good brooders, and old-time farmers used them to hatch eggs, while the standard hens which were in the mood to hatch, or broody, could be "cooled" and returned to egg production.
Because they are small, bantams are easy prey for flying predators like red-tailed hawks. If you have a hawk population in your area, you will want to provide your bantams with a yard or exercise area that has a net covering. This will also stop them from flying out to free range.
Bantams need clean water every day. Their feed requirements are the same as standard chickens: cracked corn, a scratch grain mix and laying crumbles if you are using the eggs.
Bantam combs may be somewhat more susceptible to frostbite, so their housing should be weather-tight for the coldest winter weather. Of course, the size of the space they require is only about a third to half of that required for a standard poultry flock. Their laying boxes can be the same size, about a cubic foot. The bantam chicken coop, like housing for standard poultry, must be predator proof. Be sure any gap larger than the width of two fingers is covered with chicken wire. Snakes are a danger to bantams, particularly chicks. And snakes love eggs. Windows must have screens. Don't be surprised if your bantams find the highest place in the coop to perch, as they seem to feel safer there.
If you are raising bantams from purchased chicks, they are incredibly small when they arrive, some no larger than an inch tall. This is when they are most vulnerable. They need to be taught to drink and eat the same hour they arrive. Because they are smaller, they may be picked on by standard chicks if you are brooding the two sizes together. The brooding requirements for bantams are the same as for other poultry. Your brooder pen should be free of cold drafts. A heat lamp should be used to provide a temperature of ninety degrees at the height of the chicks for one week, decreasing the temperature by five degrees each week, until they are six weeks old. Even at six weeks, bantams are tiny. If you are introducing them into a flock of standard-size chickens, do so by using a wire barrier between the flocks for a week or two. This gets the older chickens accustomed to the younger, smaller ones and may prevent serious injuries from pecking. Chickens are often cruel in the establishment of their social, or pecking, order.
Once bantams are full grown and properly housed, they are robust against disease, reliable egg producers and enjoyable to watch.

NoSQL showdown: MongoDB vs. Couchbase
MongoDB edges Couchbase Server with richer querying and indexing options, as well as superior ease of use
Document databases may be the most popular NoSQL database variant of them all. Their great flexibility -- schemas can be grown or changed with remarkable ease -- makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, and their object nature fits in well with current programming practices. In turn, Couchbase Server and MongoDB have become two of the more popular representatives of open source document databases, though Couchbase Server is a recent arrival among the ranks of document databases.
In this context, the word "document" does not mean a word processing file or a PDF. Rather, a document is a data structure defined as a collection of named fields. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is currently the most widely used notation for defining documents within document-oriented databases. JSON's advantage as an object notation is that, once you comprehend its syntax -- and JSON is remarkably easy to grasp -- then you have all you need to define what amounts to the schema of a document database. That's because, in a document database, each document carries its own schema -- unlike an RDBMS, in which every row in a given table must have the same columns.
[ Andrew C. Oliver answers the question on everyone's mind: Which freaking database should I use? | Also on InfoWorld: The time for NoSQL standards is now | Get a digest of the key stories each day in the InfoWorld Daily newsletter. ]
The latest versions of Couchbase Server and MongoDB are both newly arrived. In December 2012, Couchbase released Couchbase Server 2.0, a version that makes Couchbase Server a full-fledged document database. Prior to that release, users could store JSON data into Couchbase, but the database wrote JSON data as a blob. Couchbase was, effectively, a key/value database.
10gen released MongoDB 2.4 just this week. MongoDB has been a document database from the get-go. This latest release incorporates numerous performance and usability enhancements.
Both databases are designed to run on commodity hardware, as well as for horizontal scaling via sharding (in Couchbase, the rough equivalent to a shard is called a partition). Both databases employ JSON as the document definition notation, though in MongoDB, the notation is BSON (Binary JSON), a binary-encoded superset of JSON that defines useful data types not found in JSON. While both databases employ JavaScript as the primary data manipulation language, both provide APIs for all the most popular programming languages to allow applications direct access to database operations.
Key differences
Of course there are differences. First, MongoDB's handling of documents is better developed. This becomes most obvious in the
mongo shell, which serves the dual purpose of providing a management and development window into a MongoDB database. Database, collections, and documents are first-class entities in the shell. Collections are actually properties on database objects.
This is not to say that Couchbase is hobbled. You can easily manage your Couchbase cluster -- adding, deleting, and fetching documents -- from the Couchbase Management GUI, for which MongoDB has no counterpart. Indeed, if you prefer management via GUI consoles, score one for Couchbase Server. If, however, you favor life at the command line, you will be tipped in MongoDB's direction.
The cloud-based MongoDB Monitoring Service (MMS), which gathers statistics, is not meant to be a full-blown database management interface. But MongoDB's environment provides a near seamless connection between the data objects abstracted in the
mongo shell and the database entities they model. This is particularly apparent when you discover that MongoDB allows you to create indexes on a specific document field using a single function call, whereas indexes in Couchbase must be created by more complex
mapreduce operations.

Healthy eating is more than nutrition: it's also about the cultural and social significance of growing, cooking and sharing food.
Our 10-year goal: More Victorians adopt a healthy diet
Our three-year priority: More people choosing water and healthy food options
Most Australians have enough to eat and recognise the importance of a good diet for health. But we aren't eating the right foods. Energy dense but nutrient-poor foods contribute over one-third of the total daily energy intake of contemporary Australians, and only one in 10 adults meet the recommended minimum daily intake for vegetables. As a result, one in four Victorian adults are now obese.
Poor nutrition accounts for around one-sixth of the total burden of disease and costs Victoria between $1.25 and $4.15 billion every year. While the well-educated and those on higher incomes have relatively better diets, those from disadvantaged backgrounds bear the greatest part of the burden of poor nutrition.
Enjoying the benefits of a better diet is not just down to individual choice and willpower. The environment in which we live influences our diet, from the availability of fresh fruit and vegetables, the choice to drink water instead of other less healthy options, to time pressures and cultural norms. All too often the healthy food choice is not the easiest choice.
VicHealth takes a broad approach to the issue by investigating the barriers that prevent people from accessing nutritious food for healthy eating.

[Video] Chelsea's Eden Hazard Sent Off For Kicking Swansea Ball Boy
Chelsea limped out of the Capital One Cup after a disappointing 0-0 draw with Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday night but the game will be remember for a bizarre incident involving Eden Hazard.
The Blues were struggling to break down a stubborn and well organised Swansea outfit and with just over 10 minutes remaining attacker Hazard rushed to get the ball from a ball boy on the edge of the pitch. But the young lad fell over on top of the ball and was taking his time to get up, clearly trying to waste some time, so Hazard took it upon himself to try and kick the all from underneath him – seemingly hitting the boy in the process.
The Belgian was shown a straight red card and Chelsea will surely look to appeal the dismissal. Watch the incident and match highlights here:

Del. police arrest suspect in reputed smugglingThe Associated Press | May 18,2013DOVER, Del. A man arrested in Delaware as part of the takedown of an alleged East Coast cigarette smuggling ring that may have funneled money to terrorist groups is being held on $12.5 million cash bail.
State police arrested Adel Abuzahrieh, 47, of Staten Island, N.Y., this week after a traffic stop on Route 1 near Milford. Police say they found 201 cases of cigarettes in the box truck he was driving and seized between $15,000 and $20,000 in cash.
Delaware State Police spokesman Sgt. Paul Shavack said Abuzahrieh was arrested by members of a DSP special operations response team who were alerted to his whereabouts.
Shavack said Abuzahrieh loaded up a 2007 Mitsubishi box truck with cigarettes stored at a facility in Selbyville and began driving north on Route 1. He was taken into custody without incident and arrested on a fugitive warrant from New York alleging enterprise corruption, Shavack said.
New York authorities allege Abuzahrieh is part of a smuggling ring that made a fortune selling more than a million cartons of untaxed cigarettes in New York and may have funneled some of the proceeds to terrorist groups.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER The Shumlin administration said Wednesday it is seeking $17 million more in midyear...

READ! Origami Wall for National Library Week
It's National Library Week! Last week you got a sneak peek at preparations for the origami installation at the Main Library. It went up on Saturday, and now the Oak street face of the library (with the entrance to the Children's Room) reminds you of just one of the many fun things you can do inside or outside your library. A group of preschoolers are checking it out...arriving for Monday morning storytime. Come see it for yourself...but don't wait! The installation will stay up through Saturday April 20th.
Thanks to all of the children who folded origami for this project.

What JRPG character types do you love...and what do you bench?:
I'm not talking class here, more the full package - personality, playstyle, the works. What JRPG archetypical characters do you like, and which ones do you never seem to use? And to make things a bit creative, if you don't want to just invoke the trope feel free to give them a title, like "Goofball", or "Brick House". For me, I always keep the hero's Designated Love Interest in the party, if she survives to the end. Also, if there is an "old guy" (you know, anyone older than 20) in the party, he stays too. I bench any Small Annoying Creature immediately. And yes, I know full well that there will be that one boss fight where they would be useful, but I don't care - they are going to sit on that bench and keep it warm, so help me.

One of my few regrets about being born female is the inability to grow a handlebar mustache. -Landstander
It is hard to get away from some characters, who seem to crop up in every single JRPG ever made. And it is kind of frustrating to boot, because it can't be all that hard to be a bit more original, companies just don't attempt it for fear losing their customers. For instance, I can't think of a single JRPG that I've played that had a girl as the party's leader, outside of maybe Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn (which isn't even a "pure" rpg, but a turn based strategy with rpg elements). Yet why not? We see plenty of girls who kick some major butt in JRPG titles, but they can't be the leader because the target audience might not connect properly with the character? Nonsense. So really, I don't blame you if you don't like JRP Gs - its just something you enjoy or you don't, no hard feelings. I just got into the Tales series (finally own a sony playstation 3), and I'm loving Tales of Graces so far, but I don't know about those other examples, so I'm wondering: would Cheria be considered the moe character type? You know, ribbons in her hair, wears her goth skirt a little bit too short, high stockings...
edited 17th Mar '12 11:25:54 PM by MyGodItsFullofStars
Phantasy Star 1, which came out in the late 80s mind you and was the first game of its series had a female as its leader. Of course back then JRP Gs had little characterization but she still definitely counts. Most are male since more males play these games than females and due to the main characters often acting like gah what's the trope I'm looking, it's where the main character is sort of supposed to be the player.

Never got to play Phantasy Star 1 either. Would pokemon count as a "female lead", seeing as how in some of the games you can choose a female trainer? I'd love to know if you can think of any other exceptions I'd like to add to my list of bench warmers characters that use ridiculous weapons, like umbrellas, or wooden spoons, or magic tennis rackets, though there is one exception to that rule - Quina.

BunnyOh dude, I love using people with ridiculous weapons. Seriously. If a guy can beat you up with a fucking spoon, then that dude's pretty hardcore.
One of my few regrets about being born female is the inability to grow a handlebar mustache. -Landstander
Hmmm Valkyrie Profile is another one.
I just don't like the unacceptable break from reality. I get that its a game, but if a weapon is so ridiculous that it comes across as ridiculous even in a fantasy world, that kills my immersion, especially when there are other options available. I don't necessarily hate the joke character, but they better not hijack the setting in their ridiculousness, either. Want to know how to do a good joke character? Pascal has been great so far in Tales of Graces. Sure, she's a Cloud Cuccoolander, and a bit of a lech (towards the girls in your party, no less), but at least her weapon is somewhat believable (ok, so its a staff that fires bullets, but at least its not something spoony like a harp, or a spoon, which wouldn't even possibly make for a good weapon, no matter what planet you are from). Cool. I'll have to see if I can find some of these titles.

Left EyeSo by JRPG character types, you mean common character tropes in JRP Gs? Also Cheria is more Tsundere.
edited 17th Mar '12 11:57:50 PM by JotunofBoredom
I generally tend to stick with the characters that deal the most damage and a healer. Maybe a buffer/debuffer if I really need one or I have a large active party. Tanks are pretty much guaranteed to stay on the bench I really only base things on personality if I find a character particularly loathsome or if the characters are largely interchangeable in gameplay
Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought
Yes, basically character archetypes. You often see similarities across JRP Gs when it comes to the roles and personalities of specific characters. For instance, consider Vincent from Final Fantasy VII. A guy who forces himself into your party, that you don't trust, but whose skills are strong enough that you tolerate him anyway. You see similar characters in many JRPG titles - for instance, Volke from Path of Radiance, or Magus from Chrono Trigger.
If there's a character who holds a special amount of plot relevance I generally try to keep him/her in the active party for the duration of that dungeon/battle/stretch of story. Otherwise I just keep the characters who work best together.

Oh, Maya's a leader in the second game (Eternal Punishment) of Persona 2. I can't really decide which I like and hate!
Alt account of Angeldog 2437.
I actually make an effort to use everyone. You can imagine how long it takes me to play something like Suikoden. But, hrmmm... I don't really have a clear-cut preferred set of archetypes. It depends heavily on the game. But I do have preferences for the party as a whole: never have two or more characters that use the same weapon or have the same elemental affinity or have the same type of attacks or... you get the idea. tl;dr The only thing I really want is variety.
I always keep the Nuker around. You can tell why Magus was my favorite PC in Chrono Trigger.

Reaching the Future, the hard wayWith smaller parties, I tend to try to everyone, other than that, just what clicks. When it comes to FE, I do have a preference for earlygame people. Also, from what I understand about Moe and what little I understand about Cheria, her personality isn't that Moe. Moe characters are supposed to give off a "aww, how cute, I have to keep her safe" little sister response. From what little I've seen of Cheria she could pass as being the Big Sister of the the group (correct me if wrong) so most Moe fans wouldn't find her Moe. Characters that have an interesting background story get a higher pass in my book in who I use and who I bench. But overall I don't choose characters based on their archetypes, at least not their personality archetypes. I will say that Etrian Odyssey, where you can chose how a character looks from a list of portraits, I try to have a wide range of males and females, older and younger. It's cool that you can make a loli team but I'd never do that. So I guess party balance is best for me.

I do tend to love the older badass types. Auron, Balthier, Kratos and Jade, for example. I was rather pleased when Tales of Vesperia's protagonist turned out to be (a somewhat younger) type of this character. Token Little Kids tend to annoy me. So Presea*, Anise and Karol are usuallly on my bench. I'm okay with Genis and Rita because they are powerful and in Rita's case because she's a badass. I'm actually somewhat neutral on the subject of Hope. I actually didn't find him that whiny, but I don't particularly like him either I also don't like the whole girl-who-has-mysterious-powers-and-or-destiny archetype. So I don't like Aeris/th, Rinoa, Garnet, Yuna, Shirley or Estelle*. I'm actually okay with Collette because she's something of a deconstruction.

Adventurer ExtraordinaireMagically inclined characters usually get the shaft in my playthroughs because the likelihood is that they require MP to be of much use and you don't need to summon the aether to stick something with a sword. Unless, of course, you're playing a Megami Tensei title and not only is the game founded on magic, but MP is candy to everyone and their dog.

Some Guy Or SomethingI don't play enough JRPG with characterization apparently. Since I am too busy thinking about Pokémon, I can't really think of any... WAIT! If I could, I would bench Marche, because I am at least partially in agreement with his Alternate Character Interpretation. To be honest, in games like FFTA, I prefer a party of generics to the plot characters, because they are blank slates. I can make them into whatever I damn well please. The Dragoon/Gladiator? An old retired Bangaa who picked up the spear again to try and stop the evil in the world. The Paladin/White Mage? A former soldier who gave up a life of violence to try and help as many people as he can. The Scholar/Sage? A researcher who wishes to learn of the exact reasons for how the Grimoires work and to surpass even the most legendary of mages in knowledge.

The Israeli drink machine company has announced it will close its factory in an illegal settlement. Palestine solidarity activists celebrate, but vow to continue the boycott campaign.
Israeli occupation authorities have been delaying permits to enter Gaza for staff from Oxfam in what may be retaliation for the international charity's criticism of Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson.
Media reports say that Starbucks may buy a stake in occupation profiteer SodaStream.
On the eve of Earth Day, groups working for Palestinian rights globally are celebrating Earth Day Network's decision to end its partnership with SodaStream, whose main production factory is located in an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank.
Pro-Israel groups are using court venues around the world in an attempt to stilfe the Palestinian-led boycott campaign, but are having surprisingly mixed results.
"SodaScream – Bubble trouble" takes aim at the company that manufactures fizzy-drink machines in an illegal Israeli colony in the occupied West Bank.
The Hollywood star says she was fully aware that SodaStream operates in an Israeli settlement before she agreed to become the company's spokesmodel and ending her role as Oxfam "global ambassador."

AES E-Library
Dolby E-A Practical Way to Distribute Multichannel Audio
Dolby E Coding was developed to expand the capacity of an existing two channel AES/EBU digital audio infrastructure to make it capable of carrying up to eight channels of audio plus the metadata required by the Dolby Digital coders used in DTV transmission systems. This allows the existing digital video tape recorders, routing switchers and other TV plant equipment, as well as satellite and telco facilities used in programme Contribution and Distribution systems to handle multichannel audio. The coding system has been designed to provide broadcast quality even when decoded and re-encoded many times and to provide clean transitions when switching between programmes.

Observations on information security.
I received an email this morning announcing that Elementary Information Security has been certified by the NSA's Information Assurance Courseware Evaluation program as covering all topics required for training information security professionals. Here is the certification letter.
This is the first time thay have certified textbooks. In the past they've only certified training programs and degree programs.
The evaluation is based on the national training standard NSTISSI 4011. The book also covers the core learning outcomes for Information Assurance and Security listed in the Information Technology 2008 Curriculum Recommendations from the ACM and IEEE Computer Society.
I just received a couple of spam emails from a friend who had had her email account hacked. The hacker sent the spam to everyone on her contact list. Here's what I told her:
First, replace your old password!
Second, choose a password that can't be guessed based on text in your emails!
Third, write down the password. Keep that piece of paper till you remember the password without looking.
This morning I received a flurry of unexpected email messages from Best Buy's "Reward Zone," one of those preferred customer programs. I was reading email when the messages arrived, so I immediately tried to log in to the account and check its status. I couldn't log in, so I immediately called Best Buy.
My friend and colleague Al Dowd pointed me to Troy Hunt's blog post last April on password entropy.
After finishing a blog entry about the Homeland Security test using hacked CDs and USB drives, I took a look at a much nastier - though more expensive - attack.
Bloomberg has posted an interesting summary of recent hacker triumphs based on social engineering attacks. The fundamental piece of hard news was that the US Department of Homeland Security ran a test last year in which they dropped CDs and USB drives around near some US government offices. The test detected that 60 percent of these were inserted into government computers.
I've been looking at the various files LulzSec has uploaded from their victims. These include Sony (several different sites on separate occasions), PBS, the game company Bethesda, Fox TV, Nintendo, and a computer security company called Unveillance. They actually defaced the PBS site, posting a bogus article claiming that dead rapper Tupac was located alive.
They also extracted the hashed password file belonging to the Atlanta chapter of Infragard, an FBI-affiliated organization, and cracked a bunch of the passwords. The site is now offline.
My initial impression is that these folks are using some fairly simple attacks, like SQL injection, to retrieve a lot of the data. Note that in most cases they didn't actually deface the victim. I suspect they would have if they could have. Thus, they're taking advantage of the weaknesses they do find.
There's been buzz in computer hardware blogs over the past few days about how faster processors (and GPUs in particular) are rendering strong passwords "useless." One experimenter, named Vijay Devakumar, posted a description of his success at cracking passwords, which has been recently picked up by bloggers on
Grumble, grumble.
There has been an update to the DiskUtil program that prevents my RAID backup procedure from working.
The version I am running - Version 11.5.2 (298.4) - no longer provides a "Remove" or "Demote" function when a RAID drive is missing or offline. I've found two ways around this. I recommend the first approach for regular use. The second is only provided to illustrate a bizarre feature of Apple RAID.
A fellow calling himself (herself?) "ichsun" claims responsiblity for breaking into the Comodo CA to create bogus certificates.
He has posted (pasted, actually) a series of statements on pastbin.com that describe what happened and provide some evidence to support his claim. Note that the link above will probably go sour in a while, since Pastebin's policy is to recycle the pasted storage periodically.

Before the April explosion at the West Fertilizer plant, the town of West was best known for its Czech heritage and culture—both of which are celebrated annually on Labor Day weekend at Westfest.
The kids are back in school, and we're already working on the winter Texas Events Calendar, but hopefully there's still room in everyone's schedule for summer's last hurrah – Labor Day!
In addition to the usual holiday celebrations, many communities choose this weekend to put on some of their biggest and most unique events.
When I was growing up, my hometown was no more famous than any other tiny, black dot on the Texas road map. Nothing much of interest to visitors, except the Playdium Swimming Pool, once the largest family-owned pool in Texas (probably still is), or the rodeo held every August. Folks passed West on their way to Dallas or Austin with hardly a sideways glance.

OK, I must apologize, but this was not my most favorite of bars. I tried El Rey's Apamate today, and have to say, the taste (to me) was overshadowed by the gritty texture. It felt unrefined & unprocessed, like they forgot something. This is my first bar of this type though, maybe I just have to let it grow on me? [:D]
Is the gritty texture synonymous with the term earthy? Are there other bars that exhibit this quality? Do the other El Rey bars exhibit this quality?
1:59 am
September 30, 2004
Earthiness is a flavor descriptor, similiar to the smell of potting soil, for example. the grit you notice will almost always be due to one of two things 1) the product has been refined to a fairly l arge particle size (probably not the case with this product) 2) the product has an abnormally high shell content present that has been refined into very small pieces.
By law, chocolate can have up to 1.75% of the shell present in it. Most processors do everything in their power to keep it far lower than that, as its very tough on processing equipment, and has very bad mouthfeel. Some beans are harder than others to keep the shell out – for example ecuadorian beans are generally in this category.
2:18 am
August 1, 2006
Apamate and Gran Saman are the only two chocolates from El Rey to possess this grittiness, while the others are much smoother. Gran Saman is much grittier than Apamate due to lower cocoa butter content. Apamate has 60% cocoa liquor with the remaining 13.5% being cocoa butter, while Gran Saman has 70% cocoa liquor and no added cocoa butter.

Personally, I like the texture and think it's a nice alternative to the usual creamy, smooth, pasty, etc. textures on the market today. You just might need to get adjusted to it, Viscouse, so give another bar a spin. I understand how initial shock might influence your opinions, but give it one more chance [;)]

ST. LOUIS (AP) - Michael Wacha worked six innings of three-hit ball in his fifth rain-delayed start of the season and Oscar Taveras homered in his second career at-bat for the St. Louis Cardinals in a 2-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Saturday.
Yusmeiro Petit (3-3) gave up two hits in six innings for the Giants, but one of them was Taveras' 418-foot drive in the fifth. Petit subbed for injured Matt Cain, placed on the 15-day disabled list with a hamstring injury, for the second straight start.
The Cardinals have piled up 6 hours, 30 minutes of idle time in Wacha's starts, with delays of 51 and 47 minutes Saturday. The total includes a 61-minute weather delay before the first pitch against the Yankees his last start for a storm that failed to materialize, and the Cardinals lost in 12 innings.

If you take three bottles - one red, one yellow, one just white, plain white - and just put into these three bottles the same water, the yellow bottle will deteriorate first. Then the others will deteriorate. The red bottle of water will deteriorate in the end, last. Yellow is a death color. That's why Buddha chose yellow as the robe for his bhikkhus - because Buddha says that to die from this existence absolutely is nirvana. So yellow was chosen as a death color.
Hindus have chosen ochre, a shade of red, as the color for their sannyasins, because red or ochre is the color of life - just the opposite of yellow. It helps you to be more alive, more radiant. It creates more energy - not only symbolically, but actually, physically, chemically. So a person who is very energetic, alive, deeply rooted in the love of life, will experience red as the first color because his mind is more open to red. A fear-oriented person is more open to yellow, so the sequence will differ. A very silent person, one who is very still, will experience blue as the first. So it will depend.
There is no fixed sequence because there is no fixed sequence of your mind. Each mind differs in orientation, in tendencies, in structure, in character. Each mind differs: because of this difference the sequence will be different. But one thing is certain: each color has a fixed meaning. The sequence is not fixed, it cannot be, but the meaning of the color is fixed.
For example, yellow is a death color. So whenever it happens first it means you are fear-oriented - that your mind's first opening is for fear. So wherever you move the first thing you will notice will be fear, or the first reaction of your mind in any new situation will be fear. Whenever something strange is there the first response will be fear-filled. If red is the first color in your inner journey then you are more rooted in the love of life and your reactions will be different. You will feel more alive and your reactions will be more life affirmative.
A person whose first experience is yellow will always interpret everything in terms of death, and a person whose first experience is red will always interpret his experiences in terms of life. Even if someone is just dying he will begin to think that he must be reborn somewhere else. Even in death he will interpret rebirth. But for the person whose first experience is yellow, even if someone is born he will begin to think that he is going to die some day. These will be the attitudes. So a red-oriented person can be happy even in death, but a yellow-oriented person cannot be happy even in birth. He will be negative. Fear is a negative emotion. Everywhere he will find something to be sad and negative about.
For example, I said that a very silent person will feel blue, but this means a silent person who is inactive at the same time. A silent person who is active at the same time will feel green as the first experience. Mohammed chose green as the color for his fakirs. Islam has green as the symbolic color. That is the color of their flag. Green is both - silent, still, but also active. Blue is just silent and inactive. So a person like Lao Tzu will first begin to feel blue; a person like Mohammed will begin to feel green first. So the symbolic system of colors is a fixed thing, but the sequence is not fixed.

Sources: Nets, Nuggets, Knicks talking
By Chris Broussard
ESPN The Magazine
Even if the New Jersey Nets do not acquire Carmelo Anthony, they still might pull off a trade with the Denver Nuggets, one that would likely be a sore spot for their cross-river rivals in New York, according to high-ranking league officials.
If the New York Knicks send Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler and Timofey Mozgov to Denver for Anthony, the Nets are in discussions to then acquire either Gallinari, Felton or Chandler plus Mozgov for two first-round draft picks.
That deal is obviously contingent upon the Knicks trading all those players to Denver for a package headlined by Anthony and Chauncey Billups.
The Nets remain confident that they can acquire Anthony before the deadline, but if he instead is obtained by the Knicks, they see this trade as an alternative way to strengthen their team, the sources said.
The move could also burn the Knicks, who are reluctant to part with so many of their coveted young prospects, even for a player of Anthony's ability. To see a couple of them opening the Nets' new arena in Brooklyn could certainly be bothersome to the Knicks' franchise.
Although league rules generally preclude packaging players for two months after they are acquired via trade, Denver can package players acquired from New York in a subsequent trade with New Jersey if the players involved are sent to the Nets in separate but simultaneous smaller deals before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET trade deadline.
One example: New Jersey could trade Troy Murphy to the Nuggets as a trade exception that Denver would generate by the trade of Billups to New York. The Nets, then, would accept multiple players from Denver whose aggregated salaries are less than Murphy's. There are other combinations possible for the Nuggets and Nets to make two separate trades to satisfy league rules and convey the former Knicks to New Jersey.
Sources confirmed to ESPN.com a Friday report from the Bergen (N.J.) Record that New Jersey has agreed in principle to send prized rookie Derrick Favors, former All-Star guard Devin Harris, Murphy (and his expiring contract), Ben Uzoh and four first-round picks to Denver for Anthony, Billups, Shelden Williams, Melvin Ely and Renaldo Balkman. As ESPN.com reported Thursday night, Denver would then use at least one of those future first-round picks to package with Murphy -- either in this trade or in a separate deal -- to a third team yet to be determined.
That deal is contingent on Anthony signing a three-year, $65 million extension to remain in New Jersey long-term.
But the Nuggets are currently embroiled in talks with New York, Anthony's preferred destination. The Knicks are willing to send Gallinari, Chandler, Felton and a first-round pick to Denver, but the Nuggets are pushing for Mozgov, a 7-foot center, to be included in the package.
Landing Mozgov (and then trading him to New Jersey) would be a huge coup for Denver, since it would enable it to get the draft picks it desires, along with some of the Knicks' young talent, along with a savings of roughly $20 million this season.
Felton (2005, No. 5 by Bobcats), Chandler (2007, 23rd by Knicks) and Gallinari (2008, sixth by Knicks) are all former first-round picks. Mozgov, a former six-year pro in his native Russia, was signed as a free agent in July.

EMPORIA, Kan An Emporia man is lucky to be alive after falling into the Neosho River after dark Thursday night.
Emporia Fire Battalion Chief Rex Fisher says Preston Luttrell went into the Neosho near 108 Cherokee Court shortly before 9:30 pm.

Firefighters discovered Luttrell floating on some debris, according to Sheriff Jeff Cope, and pulled him out of the water around 10 pm.
Luttrell was hospitalized at Newman Regional Health for observation. Authorities haven't said what led to the incident.

Zipzicle Figures It Out: Neoprene Ice Pop Holder
Somebody finally figured it out: ice is cold. While this is a good thing for making tasty treats on a hot summer day, actually holding the ice treat is a pain. A cold, numbing pain. Now, our fingers can be saved from the torture that is such pleasure for our mouths.
Zipzicle, makers of convenient, but necessarily revolutionary zip baggies to make freezer pops, have created the Zipzicle Neoprene Ice Pop Holder. Specially designed to fit their zip top bags, the ice pop holder makes it easy to make and eat delicious ice pop. This round of ice pops clearly goes to Zipzicles.

Twinkies Tell The Truth
Twinkies are back and this time they mean it. It is being reported that the iconic snack cake will have a shelf life of 45 days. Hostess Brands recently went through reorganization and it appeared that the fabled snack was in trouble. But you can't keep a good sponge cake down. Or let it expire.
Somehow, without changing much (or any) of the 37 ingredients that go into a Twinkie, the shelf life has been increased from 26 days to 45 days. The new Hostess company says they still won't last forever, but… yeah, right.
To participate in "The Sweetest Comeback In The History Of Ever" just visit your local grocery store. Twinkies are set to reappear on July 15th.

Twinkies Return!
Twinkies are coming back. After falling apart in bankruptcy, Hostess Brands Inc. has emerged as a new company, Hostess Brands LLC. Buried in this news is an interesting tidbit.
From the WSJ:
But Mr. Metropoulos and his son, Daren, the co-CEO of Pabst Brewing Co. who is also heading up the reborn Hostess's marketing strategy, expressed confidence they would be able to find skilled, nonunion workers near the four plants, which are in areas with high unemployment.
That's right, Beer Twinkies! Finally, we can stop trying to make our own.
Oh, and there's that whole union debate thing too: Teamsters vs. Hostess.

Mother's Day is Sunday but the flowers are already in full bloom in Northcentral Wisconsin.
Since 1994, volunteers with the Wausau Conservatory of Music, have sold roses by the dozen for Mother's Day. The proceeds provide scholarships for conservatory students, awarded based on financial need.
Students range in age from preschoolers to adults with all levels of ability. It takes months of preparation and more than a dozen volunteers to keep the sale running smoothly.
"We do ask people to pre-order but we always order extra," volunteer Ann Dahlke said. "So if somebody's just learning about our sale, they're welcome to purchase roses."
Last year, the conservatory sold 700 dozen roses to raise $12,000 in scholarships. Rose pick up continues until 6 p.m. Friday evening and again Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.
"Who doesn't love roses," Dahlke said. "Maybe you have a friend who did you a favor and you want to thank them, what a great way to do that."

Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)
From iPods to iPhones to MacBooks, Apple uses its "think different" approach to reframe computing, communication, and more.
I see value here: Apple has no debt, P/E~11, a ~2% dividend, a diverse product line. It has been swatted for fear that it is less than it once was. However, looking at it as a regular company one would invest it, it looks pretty attractive relative to anything else.
