Aviation Security:
TSA's Change to Its Prohibited Items List Has Not Resulted in Any Reported Security Incidents, but the Impact of the Change on Screening Operations Is Inconclusive

The alleged August 2006 terrorist plot to detonate liquid explosives onboard multiple commercial aircraft bound for the United States from the United Kingdom has highlighted both the continued importance of securing the civil aviation system and the potential that improvised explosive devices (IED) may be smuggled onboard passenger aircraft. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has primary responsibility for ensuring the security of civil aviation, which includes the safety of passengers and flight crew. One measure TSA uses to protect the aviation system is prohibiting individuals from carrying items that it determines to be a threat to the aircraft and its passengers into an airport sterile area or onboard an aircraft either in their carry-on bag or on their person. To implement this measure, TSA maintains a prohibited items list that informs both the Transportation Security Officers (TSO) who conduct passenger screening and the traveling public of items that will not be allowed into an airport sterile area or onboard an aircraft. In December 2005, TSA revised its prohibited items list to allow passengers to carry: (1) metal scissors with pointed tips and a blade 4 inches or less in length as measured from the fulcrum; and (2) tools--such as pliers, screwdrivers, and wrenches--7 inches or less in length (excluding crowbars, drills, hammers, and saws). TSA considers any incident that threatens the security or safety of an aircraft or its passengers and flight crew to be a security incident. These could include a range of activities onboard an aircraft such as disruptive passenger behavior, violence against a passenger or crew member, hijacking attempts, or the use of an improvised explosive device. By examining the security impacts of the change to the prohibited items list, this report considers the impacts that could result from a passenger attempting to use scissors or tools to hijack an aircraft or to commit other forms of violence onboard a flight. Such actions fall within TSA's statutory responsibility to ensure the safety and security of passengers and crew aboard aircraft. In accordance with Conference Report 109-699, which accompanied the fiscal year 2007 Department of Homeland Security (DHS) appropriations act, this report addresses the following questions: (1) What was TSA's basis for removing certain scissors and tools from the prohibited items list and what are stakeholder views on the change? (2) What have been the impacts, if any, of the removal of certain scissors and tools from the prohibited items list on the security of aircraft passengers and flight crew and on the effectiveness of checkpoint screening operations?
TSA's stated purpose in removing certain scissors and tools from the prohibited items list was to shift TSO focus from items considered by TSA to pose a low threat (including certain scissors and tools) to items considered to pose a high threat, such as explosives. The change also was intended to better allocate TSA resources to implement other security measures that target explosives--a change supported by the majority of aviation industry stakeholders that we interviewed. TSA's decision to remove these items from the prohibited items list was based on the professional judgment of TSA officials that these items do not pose a significant threat to the security of the cockpit or to passengers and flight crew as well as internal studies that sought to examine, among other things, risks to flight security and considerations of customer concerns and screening efficiencies. Based on our review of TSA security incident reports from the time period following the prohibited items list change (December 2005 through February 2007), there have been no reported security incidents onboard an aircraft involving the use of small scissors or tools. However, the impact of the prohibited items list change on security is uncertain because the absence of an event occurring involving the use of these items does not preclude the possibility that future occurrences could happen. In addition, with respect to the effectiveness of the change on checkpoint screening operations, it is not possible to determine this because the available data are inconclusive. As we reported in March 2007, TSA conducted informal studies 30, 60, and 90 days following the change and concluded that TSO time was freed up to focus on high-threat items, but our analysis of TSA data does not support this conclusion. TSA agrees that the agency could have conducted a more methodologically sound evaluation of the impact of the prohibited items list change, but continues to believe that the change nevertheless significantly contributed to the agency's efforts to free up TSO resources to focus on detecting high-threat items, such as explosives. It also is not clear whether the change had any impact on TSOs' ability to detect explosives--a key goal of the change. One way TSA measures the effectiveness of the passenger screening system in detecting threat items, such as explosives, is the results of threat image projection testing. However, TSA does not claim nor do the data definitively support that TSA's change to the prohibited items list had any impact on threat image projection results because TSA implemented other changes to checkpoint screening operations at or around the same time as the prohibited items list change. With regard to TSA's efforts to increase training for identifying explosives as part of its overall effort to become a more risk-based organization, TSA data between October 2004 and January 2007 show an increase in the average number of hours spent in training per TSO, but this trend began before the change to the prohibited items list and there are other factors that may have contributed to this increase.

NASHVILLE -- The Padres have reportedly agreed to a one-year deal with right-handed pitcher Jason Marquis.
San Diego's deal with Marquis wouldn't seem to resonate much with the Red Sox; he was never an option for Boston. It does, however, prove somewhat instructive in the team's hunt for a starting pitcher. The 34-year-old Marquis received a $3 million contract the winter after pitching to a 5.22 ERA over 22 starts between Minnesota and San Diego. Over the past seven years, Marquis has a 4.89 ERA.
According to Fangraphs, Marquis was worse than replacement value in 2012. Earlier this offseason, the Royals signed Jeremy Guthrie to a three-year deal worth $25 million. Guthrie was worth 1.0 wins above replacement last year. (It's worth noting that both Marquis and Guthrie rebounded from horrific starts to the season with solid production once they changed teams mid-year. Still, neither of the two possesses a great long-term track record.)
Consider, then, what the price may be for a pitcher such as Brandon McCarthy or Dan Haren, who were each worth 1.8 wins above replacement in 2012 despite battling injuries.
Last year at this time, general manager Ben Cherington said, "Every year, the starting pitching market is the most expensive, whether it's free agency or trade. It's a high-acquisition cost." It looks like this winter will fit that description.

PFA-100 platelet function analyzer.Q What is the Dade Behring PFA-100 platelet function analyzer? What does it measure? What if the patient is on anti-platelet drugs? What is its application in head trauma injury?A The Dade Behring PFA-100 platelet function analyzer is used to evaluate primary hemostasis hemostasis /he·mo·sta·sis/ (he?mo-sta´sis) (he-mos´tah-sis) 1. the arrest of bleeding by the physiological properties of vasoconstriction and coagulation or by surgical means. 2. in citrated whole blood. It measures ex vivo ex vivo /ex vi·vo/ (eks´ ve´vo) outside the living body; denoting removal of an organ (e.g., the kidney) for reparative surgery, after which it is returned to the original site. platelet binding to collagen/epinephrine (CEPI) or collagen/adenosine diphosphate di·phos·phate n. An ester of phosphoric acid containing two phosphate groups. (CADP CADP Construction and Analysis of Distributed Processes CADP Coalition Against Database Piracy CADP Collagen-Adenosine Diphosphate CADP Central Area Data Processing CADP Coordinator for Automatic Data Processing CADP Cooperative Antenna Development Program ). It contains a high-shear flow system to allow blood to pass through a membrane with an aperture. The membrane is coated with collagen fibrils and one of activators epinephrine or ADP (1) (Automatic Data Processing) Synonymous with data processing (DP), electronic data processing (EDP) and information processing. (2) (Automatic Data Processing, Inc., Roseland, NJ, www.adp. (adenosine diphosphate). The platelet activation occurs as blood flows through the aperture. When citrated whole blood mixes with activators, platelets start to form aggregates. The time taken for blood to form a platelet plug that occludes the aperture is an indication of platelet function and is referred to as the closure time (CT). PFA-100 is only a screening test to determine whether abnormal platelet function is present in the patient. There is no critical value at which you can predict whether the patient will bleed in the surgery. If the patient is on an anti-platelet drug, you can only say that the patient's platelet function is compromised due to drugs, using PFA-100, but you cannot predict the bleeding tendency. Von Willebrand Factor von Willebrand factor (vWF) A protein found in the blood that is involved in the process of blood clotting. Mentioned in: Von Willebrand Disease von Willebrand factor , or vWF, is the key adhesive protein that mediates platelet adhesion and aggregation in the PFA-100 test cartridge. CT is highly sensitive to von Willebrand disease Von Willebrand Disease Definition Von Willebrand disease is caused by a deficiency or an abnormality in a protein called von Willebrand factor and is characterized by prolonged bleeding. , or vWD. CT is also highly sensitive to qualitative and quantitative defects to platelet receptors that mediate adhesion and aggregation. Thus, CT is also sensitive to inherited or acquired defects in platelet function. If aspirin is the cause of platelet dysfunction, however, only the CT of collagen/epinephrine will be prolonged but not collagen/adenosine diphosphate. Other factors affecting the CT include low hematocrit Hematocrit Definition The hematocrit measures how much space in the blood is occupied by red blood cells. It is useful when evaluating a person for anemia. Purpose Blood is made up of red and white blood cells, and plasma. (<35%) or low platelet counts (<150,000/mL). In these situations, the prolonged CT may not reflect abnormal function of platelets. Bleeding time (BT) was designed to evaluate platelet function. BT, however, is very imprecise with a high degree of variation. Currently, PFA-100 has almost replaced BT in evaluating platelet function for pre-surgical screening. Abnormal hemostasis is associated with trauma-related morbidity and mortality Morbidity and Mortality can refer to:

Notes from the Manager
Related Strips: #555: The Third Miracle, Part One; #556: The Third Miracle, Part Two; #557: The Third Miracle, Part Three
And so ends the three-week three-strips-a-week stint. I hope you enjoyed the extra updates — and thank you to everyone who has bought stuff and/or shared the comic with their friends lately! You rock.
The first panel from #564 is still the vote incentive at TopWebComics, in case you'd like to see it double-sized.
This strip marks the first strip in Chapter 25 — or the fifth chapter in Book 5 (there are always five chapters per book), meaning a lot of the themes from Book 5 are going to start wrapping up in the near future. I hope you've been enjoying the last year!
Book 6 should be a lot of fun. It should start around #601, if everything goes according to plan… Obviously, some of the overriding themes of the strip will continue (such as Jason's growing interest in old movie theaters, and the gang figuring out what they want to do with the rest of their lives), but there will be a major storyline throughout Book 6 that I think you'll all enjoy. Of course, that's not for a few more months, so I don't want to get you all excited yet…
SHIRTS ON SALE! I have a clearance sale on all of the T-shirts in my store, because… I'm trying to clear out of my stock. (That's what clearance sales are usually for, right?) I'm down the my last three sold out of Copyright shirts, and Popcorn and Breakfast Club are dirt cheap.
ORIGINAL ART FOR SALE! If you loved the Shortpacked! guest strip (guest starring Jason!) I did a while back, you can bid on the original art — plus a color print of the finished strip — over on eBay!

Multiplex Movie Review comics (starring Jason)
Wednesday, March 12, 2014
Jason explains everything you need to know about this bonus comic in the strip itself:
Other films reviewed to date are The Addams Family movies, The Lives of Others, Rubber, Get Real, and Transformers: The Movie.

Realizing A Job Well Done
There are plenty of joys that people find in their everyday lives. Love and friendship, for instance. Or marriage, watching your child graduate. And don't forget candy bars. Who doesn't like eating a candy bar? No one – candy bars are inherently joyous.
But well near the top of that list of joys is the idea of a "job well done." It's one of the cornerstones of life, and essential when it comes to work. No one wants to do a job poorly, but it's easy to fall prey to cutting corners and putting forth the bare bones effort necessary. That's not a recipe for doing a job well.
This past week's Supreme Court ruling on the Affordable Care Act was monumental. And I'm not interested in looking at the politics behind it, dissecting the science behind how the Justices voted, or its implications on this year's election. I'm just interested in how, for me, it means a job well done.
Two years ago I found myself interning for a Senator's office on Capitol Hill, answering phone call after phone call from angry California constituents. Many were mad about the bill, many were madly in support of it, and many were just flat out mad. It was a wild experience, and seeing the Supreme Court uphold the work I was tangentially a part of is gratifying. It tells me that all those phone calls I worked through, the people I helped understand bits of the legislation, all of that was a "job well done."
Fast forward to today, and our Austin Office is seeing similar validation, another "job well done." We just completed supporting Freescale Semiconductor's Technology Forum (FTF). I'm a youngling in this office, and with only two months under my belt I was juggling whatever support was necessary for me on a case-by-case basis. Getting to do that allowed me to witness how our Austin Office works, and the great job it does in its work. A few adjectives to describe my observations come to mind:
- Diligence, in terms of researching before reporter pitches
- Endurance, because putting on a successful event isn't for the meek
- Persistence, as in the follow-ups conducted leading to sizeable amounts of quality coverage
- Consistency, in tracking and reporting of event coverage
- Level-headedness, as they all kept level heads and smiles amidst the stress a big event brings.
I'm not qualified to speak as to the specifics of what all was being worked on behind the scenes for FTF because, quite frankly, I'm still learning the ropes here. But I can recognize a "job well done" when I see it. Seems to be pretty standard operating procedure here at the LPP office in Austin.

"He told me their doors are still open to me and that I can come up and play for them," he said. "He said that I'm the pass rusher they are looking for and that it will be a second family being up there."
Shaw had already been talking to Seider, his area recruiter, for weeks, but says the absence of a head coach at Louisville cemented his intentions to visit Morgantown. He is planning that trip, as well as stops at Duke and Virginia before Feb. 5, National Signing Day.
Blair has been committed to Louisville since April, but plans to check out Purdue, West Virginia and Nebraska. He originally had a visit set for Morgantown on Jan. 17, but a last-minute offer from the Cornhuskers has those plans up in the air. The one aspect working in WVU's favor is that he is a former teammate of current Mountaineer safety Malik Greaves.
Although he has elected not to speak with the media since the news of Strong's departure, Northmont (Ohio) defensive end Terry Ramsey could be the name to watch most closely. The three-star prospect was down to Michigan State, Louisville and West Virginia, planning to visit the three schools in that order in successive weeks. Heading into the trips, WVU was his leader, but Strong convinced him to commit to the Cardinals before he ever made it to Morgantown.
That's why you saw the flips of Alford, Golson and Hyman late in the process last year. In the case of Hyman, he had been recruited by Mitchell for four years, dating back to high school. There was little doubt he would be following him to Morgantown.
Again, there are no changes expected on West Virginia's staff, but there will be plenty of movement elsewhere. Those moves will come to a head during the annual coaches' convention Jan. 13-15 ... which just so happens to coincide with the restart of the contact period. Then the real fun begins.

Giant Step Presents DJ Spinna and Electric Wire Hustle at Le Bain 8/19
Monday, August 19
Le Bain at The Standard, New York NY
After hosting an astounding set of DJs from Onra to FaltyDL, and Rich Medina, Giant Step's monthly Monday night at Le Bain returns to the 18th floor of the Standard Hotel with the world-class DJ Spinna and a very special DJ set by Electric Wire Hustle.
Vincent "DJ Spinna" Williams is something of an anomaly in music, a cornerstone of Hip-Hop's Golden era who became a go-to producer and key remixer for numerous high profile artists. A humbling example of what it takes to truly succeed within the framework of multiple fields. A steadfast work ethic, an obsessively extensive vinyl library and the willingness to pursue the full extents of his roots (Funk, Soul and Jazz), foundation (Hip-Hop) and future (Electronic/Dance music) with no restraints. DJ Spinna made much of his first impression on listeners as the musical background of his group The Jigmastas (having released an impressive slew of 12" singles on his then self-run label Beyond Real during this time) as well as providing the canvas for an array of that era's lyrical giants. As an emcee in New York City, if you didn't have a Spinna production under your belt, well, you just hadn't accomplished all there was to accomplish. Everyone from Mos Def, Talib Kweli to Pharaohe Monch boasted Spinna beats to prove their worth to the scene.

CIO — Your IT resume provides recruiters and hiring managers with a critical first impression of who you are and what you offer. Working in a field as competitive as IT means you have to do everything you can to ensure your resume get noticed. Making a bad first impression (or no impression at all) is a sure way to get your resume moved into the 'No' pile.
"They [resumes] get eliminated for all sorts of reasons just to get the pile down to something manageable," says Rick Endres, president of the Washington Network and former CIO of the U.S. Congress, as well deputy assistant secretary for the Department of Commerce for Technology Policy. To help you build a better resume, CIO.com talked to Endres and other experts to identify common errors and some not-so-common ones.

Come on, folks, we shouldn't even have to mention this one and yet, according to the experts, job candidates are disqualified all the time for making typos, spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. "Most jobs put a premium on communication skills. Hiring managers and recruiters aren't going to be interested if you can't communicate well on your own behalf," says Endres.
Job seekers commonly flood the experience section of their resumes with examples of tools and technologies, making it difficult to distinguish achievements from technology. You want both technical and nontechnical readers to understand what you've done.
Jennifer Hay, Credentialed IT Resume Writer with ITResumeService.com, offers this example of an achievement statement that blends technology with well-understood achievements.:
"Developed a hybrid strategy to keep costs down by using data center hardware with SAN deployment for high-availability data, and cloud-based storage with Amazon S3 and Box.com for backup and archival.
"Select those top tools that are most important to your career goals and integrate those into your resume. Your remaining tools and technologies can be added in a section on your resume titled "Technical Skills" or "Technology Profile," says Hay.
"Almost every resume that I see says things like resume1 or resumeshort as opposed to the person's name or perhaps the position they are applying for," says Endres. If it's being filed somewhere on a PC, you want to make it as easy as possible for your resume to be found. You certainly don't want to rely on someone having to open it up in order to figure out what it is and who it's from.
IT professionals often rely on advice they encounter for nontechnical resumes. For example, the length of the resume, "For IT professionals, it's often not realistic to limit it to two pages. I commonly write resumes that are 2.5 pages long, with another for education, certifications and a technical profile," says Hay.
Endres says that IT professionals should aim to get their resumes down to two, at most three, pages. "If you got something important to say, I don't think it hurts for you to add supplemental information in the email that would be evidence of your claims."
Your resume has technical details, certifications, professional development information, along with your technology profile. This information takes up space. "Technical hiring managers aren't satisfied with this minimal description. They want to know how you did it and what technology you used. They want to know with which technologies you have skills and recent experience. Most IT professionals still have a long list of tools, processes and methodologies to include," says Hay.

Back to all news
Valentine's Day is this Friday, so I'm starting this Bulletin with a friendly reminder to all who are reading and may have entirely forgotten about the holiday (as I know from personal experience that playing copious amounts of Halo can sometimes cause one to forget about birthdays, anniversaries, and especially Valentine's Day). As the author of the weekly update, I recognize the responsibility that is bestowed upon me to notify you of this sometimes-important holiday. To help get you in the mood (not like that, stop it), we've prepared a Valentine's Day survival kit, complete with community-created Halo-themed valentines and a special edition Screenshot Spotlight. We have not, however, included chocolates, flowers, or dinner reservations – you'll need to get those on your own.
Matchmaking Playlist Update
This coming Monday, something "big" is on the way: our next featured playlist, Big Rumble. The playlist offers action-packed 12-player Free-for-All for the first time in Halo 4 Matchmaking, and will be available until March 3rd. Gameplay will take place on larger maps, and all DLC from the Crimson and Castle map packs will be included in the voting options. The full list of game types are as follows.
Big Rumble Game Types
As you can see above, thanks to your community votes, the playlist will be the first to feature one of Halo 4 Matchmaking's newest game types: Quick Draw!
A true test of the trigger, Quick Draw equips players with Magnums, Frag Grenades, and the Dexterity Support Upgrade. If you think you've got the fastest pistol in Matchmaking, hop into the playlist to join the action. You should also hope that you don't run into bs angel in Quick Draw, because she's been mercilessly beating everyone in our playlab. I call hackz. Additionally, we'll be slightly modifying the join-in-progress parameters for several playlists and game types come Monday. These updated parameters should provide for more optimal join-in-progress scenarios in Halo 4 Matchmaking. We thank you for your feedback, which has led to the newly optimized settings. Lastly, if you're still looking to master any of Halo 4's vehicle commendations, be sure to head into the Heavies playlist before Monday. Completing the Splatter commendation will unlock the Verdant visor, mastering the Wheelman commendation will unlock the Aviator BOND helmet variant, and completing all vehicle commendations will award you the Air Assault VERG Armor. If you've got your eye on any of these, jump into the playlist and start doin' some damage!
Halo eValentines
Last week, we told you we were looking for your best Halo-themed valentines. We knew we could count on you, and you didn't disappoint! If one of them seems suitable for your special someone, you may want to print it out and write a lovely note to accompany it … or you may just want to steal the line and use it as if it was your own. Either way, if that someone knows what you're talking about, you've probably got a keeper. Without further delay, here are this year's community valentines, including one from us.
by Matt
by Donut Fun
by Fred
by III Sanctus III
by PMS MrsQuackie
by Stubborn Barren
by Christopher
And one last one, from us...
We hope that the above valentines prove useful this Friday. If you submitted a valentine, check your email inbox as you may have received a little something to thank you for your contribution. If we don't talk to you before then, Happy Valentine's Day, everyone. We kind of sort of love you.
Gamers for Giving Recap
Last week, we previewed the Gamers for Giving charity tournament, and this past weekend I flew over to Michigan, where they've had too much snowfall and it's entirely too cold. Luckily, the snow slowed down a bit for the weekend, and hundreds of gamers from the Midwest were able to make their way to Eastern Michigan University to compete in a variety of games while contributing to a great cause. For the past few years, Gamers for Giving has been an awesome gathering of Midwest Halo players, and it's safe to say that this year was no exception. From well-known players like Walshy and Strongside to dozens of eager competitors, the event was packed with top talent and energy for Halo 4. The Halo 4 action kicked off with some major upsets, as professional players dropped games to up-and-coming amateur players and new names rose to the top. Halfway throughout the tournament, I started to hear murmurings about a team that hadn't lost a game yet. That team was VwS Cryptic, a group of emerging players who made their mark on competitive Halo this weekend with a first-place victory, taking down several more decorated and veteran rosters along the way. After the event, I had a chance to meet the team and set up an interview. I was among the many who watched this weekend and were curious about who the players on this team were and exactly how they managed to kick so much ass. Read below to learn a bit about their history and get to know the players.
Hey, guys! Congrats on the big win this weekend, and thanks so much for joining me today. Tell me, did you guys come into the tournament expecting to take first place? Sargoth: Thank you, Bravo! We put in a lot of practice for this event and we knew, considering how we were playing online and meshing together, that we were gonna win the way we did. Tragic: We expected to take first, you have to come into every tourney expecting to take first. Taking it in the way we did was definitely amazing. WinntuR: We were one of the few teams that were willing to put a lot of practice going into the tournament. With our practice and experience as a team, we thought we had a solid chance of taking it all.
VwS Cryptic with the 1st place check. From L to R: Sargoth, WinntuR, Svspector, Tragic
One of the coolest things about this weekend was the fact that I had never seen your team play together before. For those out there who haven't seen you guys play before, tell us a little bit about when and how you got into playing Halo competitively. Sargoth: I started playing Halo at a pretty young age when tournaments were starting to get big. There was a local MLG event and I decided to go and loved every second of it! WinntuR: My first time competing was in Halo: Reach at Columbus 2012 where I placed 17th. It was a great experience from a competitive aspect. I then continued to compete in small Halo 4 tournaments and really enjoyed the competition. Svspector: My Halo career started toward the end Halo 3, and I mainly played the MLG Playlist. I started to get competitive with Halo toward the middle of Reach, however I didn't go to my first tournament until Halo 4. Tragic: I've been gaming competitively since the middle of Reach. I was solid but never really put the time into it or went to tournaments. The first tournament I attended was AGL Chicago and I think my performance stood out, which helped me get onto better teams. Before we get into the tournament itself, how did you guys come to team up with each other, and what advice would you give to skilled players who might be looking for teams but not know where to start? Sargoth: My advice to other gamers is to just be humble to everyone you come across. You never know who will shine at the next tournament! Svspector: WinntuR, Tragic, and I have gone to previous Halo 4 tournaments as a team, however our original fourth teammate (Nemassist) couldn't make this event. We were running games with some other players, but nothing really clicked until we picked up Sargoth. WinntuR: We've all been a part of many different teams. Eventually, when you come upon three other solid players, it's important to realize that you may not immediately be the best team out there. However, if you can stick it out with the same players and put in the practice, the team will learn to play together, and everyone will benefit. Tragic: Look for four players who are willing to put the time and effort into getting better as a team. It takes a lot of patience to find a good team, but once you've got the right group of players, it's worth it. Moving onto Gamers for Giving, I believe you guys only dropped two games the entire tournament. To what would you attribute the dominance? Tragic: Honestly, we didn't plan on losing at all because we had that much confidence in each other. We knew coming into the event our teamwork was unreal and we had the individual skill to match it. The only games we lost were two Simplex games due to map control. WinntuR: Coming into the tournament, we actually weren't very confident in Slayer game types but we also knew we had teamwork that not all teams can match. The Simplex games that we did lose were really close games, and minor mistakes ended up costing us those few games. What would you say some of your best or favorite game types were this weekend? Tragic: Unfortunately, both of our favorite game types (Dispatch CTF and Adrift CTF) got taken out. [Laughs.] The game type I enjoyed most would have to be Onyx CTF. Sargoth: Onyx Slayer and Haven Extraction were my personal favorite game types to play with this team. Svspector: Our best Slayer game type was Onyx due to our map control. Our best overall Objective game type was Station 9 Extraction, because of the way we rotated before each Extraction point ended and held map control throughout the game. WinntuR: We were just overall confident in our objective gameplay on all maps. Tragic: Honestly, we just da best at all the game types. #cryptic [Laughs.]
Legendary took second place at Gamers for Giving 2014, taking one game from VwS Cryptic in the finals.
Outside of competitive multiplayer itself, what are some of your favorite things about Halo? Tragic: I would say traveling and all the awesome people I've met. Svspector: For me, it would have to be the tournaments. It's amazing being able to see all the people you talk to online in real life, but also being able to travel around the world to do something you love. Tragic: This year's Gamers for Giving was the most fun I've had at a tournament so far. I love this team! WinntuR: Meeting new people who can't spell, like my teammates. You should see the un-spellchecked version of this interview. Sargoth: [Laughs.] I've met my closest friends at Halo events, and it has changed my life in ways I can't even explain. Tragic: Bravo, can I ask you a question? But of course! Nobody ever asks me questions. Shoot! Tragic: You would be my hero if you grow your hair out again. Can you do that for me? [Laughs.] Would doing so really make me your hero? Tragic: Yes. Then you got it. WinntuR: While we're off topic … to be honest, I really want to compete in Peggle. Peggle was pretty incredible this weekend. Who's the best Peggler on the team? Tragic: WinntuR, of course. Svspector: Me. Sargoth: Me. WinntuR: No competition here. Thanks again for joining me, guys, and also for contributing to Gamers for Giving this weekend. We all had a blast watching you play. Congrats again on winning the tournament, and enjoy your Deadeye helmet and FOTUS armor! Sargoth: No problem, Bravo. Thank you so much for taking your time to be with us! Tragic: Thank you! It was a blast competing this weekend. Svspector: Thanks for having us here, Bravo. It was fantastic being able to support GFG and everything that they do while playing the game that we love! WinntuR: Had an amazing time this weekend, the event was run very well. Thanks for having us! -------------------- If you'd like to catch a rebroadcast of the tournament finals, check out the video on demand here. Next up, bs angel has selected some of her favorite screenshots which also happen to be rather appropriate for this week.
Screenshot Spotlight: Love
Last week, we turned the spotlight on heavy vehicles. This week, we decided to go with something a little more romantic. Take a gander at the following love-themed screenshots, and maybe even find inspiration to make your own. For your chance at being in the next spotlight, take a screenshot of a pistol and then tag it with "Magnum" and "Halo Waypoint", and maybe, just maybe, yours will be featured in the next Halo Bulletin!

Welcome to Wilkes guitars
Wilkes Guitars is a small business which I run from home, building bespoke instruments and carrying out repairs on acoustic and electric instruments from violins to double basses. I pride myself in providing a bespoke service that is second to none. No job is too small, or too big.
Doug Builds a beast of a Flying V for the band Breed 77
To see a video of the Flying V, either click the image about or click here - Breed 77 Flying V
If you have a vision of an instrument you want me to build, whether it is something as relatively straightforward as a 6 string bass, a twin neck like this one, or as outlandish as a violin or guitar made in the shape of your initials such as the one I made for Robbie Williams, I can build it....!
I also provide instrument servicing such as guitar / bass set ups, including checking and setting the intonation, restringing and stoning of frets to name but a few of my many services.
Maybe your instrument has had an accident and you think it is beyond repair, think again..! I have restored many 'hopeless cases' back to their former glory. You would be surprised how many guitars that have been stood on, crushed, or had the neck snapped, that I have invisibly repaired to the delight of the customer. Click here to watch a video of my progress in repairing a 1930s Maccaferri acoustic guitar.
I pride myself on the quality of my spraying, where a minimum of 20 coats of paint and lacquer – all sanded down and flattened between coats - ensures the hardest wearing and highest lustre finish.
I have a small personal workshop and my main concern is attention to detail which is most impoortant to me, and that is what I provide. If you have any queries about repairs, rebuilds or new builds, I would be only too happy to talk through any concerns or ideas you may have and try to resolve them. I can be contacted after 12pm from Mon - Fri.
Who is playing Wilkes..?
I am developing a new 'Players' section of my web site where I am ecouraging people who own / play one of my instruments to send in pictures and info about themselves. See who is currently featured by clicking here.

Jim enters the room where the other previously executed players are, and they cheer for him. Jim hugs Kate before he hugs his buddy Jennifer. Manuel tells Jim that he's "still the man," and Jim looks at him and says, "Who are you?" Just kidding. Jim sits down next to Charlie, who says that he just voted for Jim as the big winner. Charlie, I don't think he really cares about that right now. Anderson says that now it's down to two -- Steven and Kathryn. One will win the money, and one is The Mole.
Anderson reminds us that the winner gets $510,000. Kathryn and Steven do not know that Jim has already lost. We return to the bullring. Anderson tells the rules to an unseen person seated across from him. The previously executed players look nervous. Anderson sits down at the laptop and types something in. We see that it's Steven sitting across from him. The screen goes green, and Steven leans back in relief. Anderson says, "Congratulations, Steven. You've just won the game." Okay, that was totally dubbed in after the fact. I wonder what he really said. Steven stands up and yells, "Are you kidding me?" He and Anderson hug. The previously executed players chuckle and clap. Steven looks stunned. Anderson says that they will "bring in The Mole." Of course, it's Kathryn. She walks out. The previously executed players applaud her (except Jim, who looks pissed). Steven and Kathryn hug. Anderson tells Kathryn that she "did great." He grins at her and shakes her hand. Are they going to reveal that they are in love now? Steven is just grinning and deliriously happy. They have a group hug. Anderson tells Kathryn again that she did an "amazing job." As they walk out of the ring, Steven grabs Anderson around the neck and hugs him. He's so touchy-feely.
The previously executed players cheer Kathryn and Steven as they walk in. Kathryn hugs Jim first, as she should. Everyone congratulates Steven. Kathryn exclaims over Jennifer's hair. Lots of hugs all around, and then everyone is seated. Anderson tells the group that he didn't know who The Mole was throughout the game, but he figured it out with a few days to go. Wow, that's interesting. I wish they had told us that before. It makes sense, because otherwise Anderson might give the others hints subconsciously. Anderson compliments Kathryn again -- they're so in love. Steven says that he was sure Jim did better on the quiz. Steven says that he was sure that he was going to be executed. Anderson tells them that the final quiz was "incredibly difficult," and had questions going back to the first day of the game. He asks Jim how many he thought he got right, and Jim says sarcastically, "Uh, three." Anderson tells them that out of twenty-five questions, Jim got thirteen correct, while Steven got sixteen correct. Wow, that was close. Jim has got to be kicking himself. So close! And he's supposed to be the smart one.

I second to Farmboys comment. Because I would love to get my hands on a few hundred thousend 1 cent clicks a day. And indeed, be careful with the filter. It is not designed to weed out low paying ads but competitors. MFA kind of ads don't always pay bad. They pay as good as the advertiser needs to invest to make a profit.
And of course, it may sound like I am some schoolteacher, but getting rid of bad earnings is mostly a matter of creating good content in the right quantities!

After two years of preparation, including two world tours, Kimiko Ishizaka and the Open Goldberg team are now ready to announce the next project to create public domain, open source music! We are happy to present the "Open Well-Tempered Clavier: Ba©h to Bach".
We've taken the recipe that made the Open Goldberg Variations great, and expanded it to include some new partners. Anne-Marie Sylvestre will once again join Kimiko in the Teldex Studios, and Bösendorfer will be providing their best instrument for the recording.
Observe.Hack.Make. (OHM) is a massive event for the European hackers and maker communities. It attracts just about anybody who is into open source, open culture, hacktivism, copyleft, privacy, and much more. The event takes place in tents in the fields of northern Holland.
Robert Douglass and Kimiko Ishizaka both presented different aspects of "Open Source Bach". Robert gave a lecture that presented the Open Goldberg Variations, the recent Twelve Tones of Bach Tour, and the upcoming Open Well-Tempered Clavier project.
Aaron Dunn's Kickstarter project is on track to raise over $75,000 to record the entire catalog of Frédéric Chopin, and to release it into the public domain. Aaron joined me on a Google Hangout (which unfortunately didn't capture his video) to talk about the project, and its importance as a catalyst to shift the incentives of the music industry, while bringing classical music and the works of Chopin to entirely new audiences. You can support Aaron's project at: http://kck.st/free-chopin
UPDATE: Anyone interested in this topic should absolutely read the blog at Free Music Archive (who did their due dilligence better than I did), because some of the claims of ContentID.com border on being outright misleading.
One of the distinct benefits of having the Open Goldberg Variations free for use by everyone has been the plethora of great YouTube videos that have made use of the content. From fractal animations, to dance videos, to nature collages, people have chosen Bach and Kimiko Ishizaka to enhance the message of their film.
It's been a bad month for classical record labels, hundreds of whom are now scrambling to see how they will continue to distribute their physical products to merchants and retailers around the world. In the shortest time, three major distributors have gone out of business, leaving artists and labels in the lurch as they try to sell their CD inventory. Which companies are closing their doors?
Musical America's recent Fundraising report (PDF) had some high points but the article on Kickstarter.com wasn't one of them. Aside from failing to even mention one successful music project, the article didn't answer any basic questions, like whom is Kickstarter for, and how well is it working? Here's some information about 3,444 successful music projects that I was able to gather from the Kickstarter.com website. Enjoy!
The $1.96 Million raised for Classical Music over
No musician has had more success reaching their fans via Kickstarter.com than Amanda Palmer. Her fundraising project is the most successful music campaign in the history of crowdfunding. In this video she brilliantly explains why she asks her fans for support, and why they're so willing to help her. The Open Goldberg Variations project has a lot in common with Amanda and her point of view. This video really rang true in our hearts. Thank you, Amanda Palmer, for explaining so eloquently why we're all doing this. You're an inspiration.
On a cold winter day in Germany, I received two boxes full of music. These are the last Open Goldberg Variations scores to be delivered to the project's backers. They're quite beautiful. You can order yours directly from the GRIN website.
An exciting early Christmas present just arrived by email. A new free iPhone app called Soundsnips has been created by KUSC, a public radio station in southern California, and it features the Open Goldberg Variations by Kimiko Ishizaka. Classical KUSC claims to be "the largest and most listened to public radio and non-profit classical music station in the country", so this is a big deal for Open Goldberg.
The app is designed to educate people about music from different eras such as the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern.
MUNICH, December 4, 2012. GRIN.COM, german Online-Publisher of over 200.000 E-Books and textbooks, partners with the Open Goldberg Variations project and releases new crowdfunded, crowdsourced, public domain engraving of J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. GRIN.COM will distribute the newly published musical score to the hundreds of music lovers around the world who in 2011 funded the engraving via the website Kickstarter.com. The new edition of the Bach's Goldberg Variations was made by Werner Schweer using the open source MuseScore notation software.
München, den 4. Dezember 2012. Der GRIN Verlag, Online-Publisher von über 200.000 E-Books und akademischen Texten, veröffentlicht zusammen mit dem Open Goldberg Variations Project die Fan-finanzierte und -unterstützte Notenausgabe von Johann Sebastian Bachs Goldberg Variationen. GRIN.COM vertreibt ab sofort die neue Edition der Partitur, die in 2011 weltweit von hunderten musikbegeisterter Fans über die Crowdfunding-Plattform Kickstarter.com finanziert und von Autor und Initiator Werner Schweer mit der Open Source Notationssoftware MuseScore erstellt wurde.
Congratulations go out to Walter, LINS, Bogdana, Philiippe, and Benson for being chosen randomly from the pool of people who entered our drawing to win a free copy of the Open Goldberg Variations CD. Your prizes will be in the mail shortly. Enjoy!
After a long search for an appropriate production company, and much effort invested into the graphical design of the booklet, the Open Goldberg Variations double CD is now being manufactured. In addition to the backer dedications, the liner notes will include short essays written by Kimiko Ishizaka and Andrew Melck, in both English and German. The booklet design was done by Jeffrey A. McGuire (aka "jam").
Backers of this project will start to get their CDs in the mail late August and early September. Anybody wishing to order more copies of the CD can do so by supporting the Well Tempered
Kimiko Ishizaka, the Open Goldberg Variations pianist, will visit seven cities around the world playing the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. With an eye on a larger recording project, Kimiko is sharing her new interpretation of the Well Tempered Clavier, Volume 1, with audiences in Cologne, Ann Arbor, New York, Rockport, Toronto, Vienna, and London.
To help finance the tour, and to sell early access tickets, a Kickstarter project has been launched.
Landscape Windscreen has finished creating a series of fractal landscape videos set to the music of the Open Goldberg Variations. Here's how they were produced:
The fractal movies were made by me with Fractal eXtreme which is simple to use and incredibly fast. The shortest one was made within hours, the longest took about 55+ hours to render and contains about 25'000 single frames. There were drawbacks (such as when I ran out of memory after a 2-day render and had to start again ), but I had fun exploring and making these movies and pay honor to the efforts of the Open Goldberg Project.
"The Gift" is an appropriate title for a short film that uses the Open Goldberg Variations as its musical material. Indeed, it is the full intention of the OGV team that the music is used in derivative art works. It's the best way we have to pass on the gift of Bach's music that has come down to us through the centuries. Andrew Querner, the creator of the film, contacted us to say this: "As a kid, I grew up listening to the Goldberg Variations; that I can work with the music now means a great deal to me." Here is Andrew's film, enjoy!
The Gift from Andrew Querner on Vimeo.
One of the clear goals of the Open Goldberg Variations was to create a work which would spawn even more creativity in the hands of musicians, filmmakers, and artists to come. By licensing both the recording and the score with the Creative Commons Zero tool (ie placing the work into the public domain with no copyright and no usage restrictions), we've made it as easy as it can be to incorporate Kimiko Ishizaka's artistry into your own works. Here are the first two examples to come to light.
Torsten Stier used the Aria from the Open Goldberg Variations in his 1st prize
Wisconsin Public Radio and Open Goldberg have successfully made radio history. On June 24, 2012, WPR broadcast the entire Goldberg Variations recording made by Kimiko Ishizaka. At the same time, technologies for score following provided by MuseScore and SampleSumo were used to broadcast the score of the Goldbergs to anyone who was watching via a browser. The radio audience was instructed to visit opengoldberg.wpr.org, choose their radio station, and then watch the measures get highlighted in synchronicity with the broadcast of the radio.
This event was uniquely possible through the combination
Have you ever wondered exactly how much money is flowing through Kickstarter.com into the music industry? I did, and as preparation for my appearance at Classical:NEXT I consulted the Kickstarter site itself, with the help of a little script I wrote, and tallied all of the succussfully completed music projects since the site launched in 2008. The results are pretty remarkable.
In total, in roughly 4 years, Kickstarter has poured a staggering $36,075,878.78 into music projects. Over the 10 categories that Kickstarter lists - Indie Rock, Rock, Country, Pop,
iPad owners can now enjoy the Open Goldberg Variations, played by Kimiko Ishizaka, while following the score on their iPad. MuseScore has released a free iPad app that is dedicated to the music, the score, and the history of the Open Goldberg Variations project. Have fun!
In the few days since the recording and score to the Open Goldberg Variations have been released, the internet has been buzzing with excitement, and people around the world have been enjoying the new public domain works that have been given to them. There are now dozens of sites where people can find the downloads, listen to the recording, or procure the score. As such, it will never be possible to know exactly how many people are listening to the work. We do have some statistics from our sites, though, as well as a partial list of articles and reviews that have been written.
Open Goldberg Variations director Robert Douglass, pianist Kimiko Ishizaka, and music notation company MuseScore have been invited to demonstrate a unique score-following technology at the Classical:NEXT conference in Munich at the end of May. In addition, Robert Douglass will be speaking on a panel discussing crowdfunding music projects.
This score-following technology, developed by SampleSumo, recognises the music as it is being performed and follows the score from MuseScore accordingly, allowing the audience to see every note being played.
Kimiko was joined in the studio by Anne-Marie Sylvestre, the Producer of the recording, who flew in from Montreal just for these sessions, Tobias Lehmann, Recording Engineer and a partner at Teldex, Bernhard Farenholtz, master piano builder and technician who cared for the instrument, Robert Douglass,
MuseScore.com is introducing powerful new technologies to the music business, finally hurtling the industry into the 21st century. It is now possible to embed MuseScore.com scores in other websites (like YouTube videos), meaning music scores are now about to go viral. Check out Variation I of the Goldberg Variations, as rendered by MIDI. Later, when Kimiko Ishizaka has completed the recording of the Open Goldberg Variations, we'll be able to link this score to her recording, and embed that into this very website. It will be fun to see what people do with this. Great work, MuseScore!
We can't thank our backers enough; because we exceeded our funding goal, and because Anne-Marie Sylvestre is volunteering her time, we are able to go with the luxury option for the recording studio. We've just signed a contract with the Teldex studio in Berlin, one of the most famous classical recording studios in the world.
When you make it to its large, white recording space, through 5000 m2 of private garden in a green park in Berlin, you can start to appreciate why Teldex is the most prestigious classical recording studio of Germany, the country with the largest classical musical heritage
As part of the Open Goldberg Variations Project, MuseScore has created a new edition of Bach's Goldberg Variations. The score was created with the open source MuseScore notation software and is intended to be distributed electronically, for free, with no usage restrictions.
The public review period, which will last for at least three months, is intended to help the MuseScore team identify any problems with the score, and to give music enthusiasts and scholars around the world the chance to validate the score before it reaches its final form.
MuseScore has provided special web based tools for
Bösendorfer, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious piano manufacturers, will sponsor the Open Goldberg Project, which is creating a new score and recording of J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. Both the score and the recording will be released as public domain works, guaranteeing that they will be free for everyone, forever. The variations will be performed in a top German sound studio by award-winning pianist Kimiko Ishizaka, to produce a definitive contemporary recording of the highest professional standard.

If at some stage in the past you have worked in the UK then the overwhelming probability is that the answer to the question, do you have a UK pension fund? is yes.However, it is likely, if past experience is anything to go by, that you have little or no idea about how much your UK pension rights are worth or indeed how they are invested (if at all).
If you worked in the public sector perhaps as a doctor, nurse, or teacher, then you will have a deferred pension (sometimes called a frozen pension) in one of the UK public sector pension schemes. No fund as such is associated with these schemes as the cost of providing benefits comes mainly from the UK taxpayer of today.
You may have read that the attempts of the UK Government to reduce their long term liability by reducing the benefits from public sector pension schemes is being challenged by strike action which will see more public servants walk off the job than has been seen for a generation.
Even those with deferred pensions have been affected. UK pension rights are generally protected in order to preserve their purchasing power by increasing them to allow for inflation. This inflation linking has to date been provided by way of a link to inflation measured by the Retail Prices Index (RPI). Although it sounds innocuous, the inflation link is now against the Consumer Prices Index (CPI). As over time the CPI is less than RPI by up to 1.5% p.a. this does immense damage to the real value of deferred UK public sector pensions.
The wishes of the UK Government to reduce the UK deficit will no doubt result in further attacks on UK pension funds. No wonder that many of those who have UK pension rights but no longer live and work there have already exercised their right to take a transfer value and have transferred to a non UK scheme known as a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS).
Doing this gives peace of mind and the opportunity to have control over how the pension fund is invested. There is a large selection of QROPS available in various jurisdictions. Some (like those in New Zealand) may allow for the immediate availability of a lump sum of up to 100% of the fund irrespective of age. Others in jurisdictions like Guernsey and the Isle of Man offer tax free investment growth, and critically control over the timing and amount of the income you are able to take once you are over age 55.
The icing on the cake is the ability to pass on the entirety of your pension fund after your death without any tax charges. Leave your pension fund in the UK and following your death 55% of it may be taken by the UK taxman, regardless of how long you have been a non-UK resident.
