A California hedge fund fraudster faces up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to running a $5 million Ponzi scheme.
John Clement entered his plea on wire fraud charges last week. According to prosecutors, he promised, á la Bernard Madoff, steady if unspectacular monthly returns of between 1.5% and 2% with minimal risk. But he actually used the money invested in his Edgefund Capital to repay earlier investors.
Some 22 people were caught up in the Encinitas man's fraud.
Clement, 65, will be sentenced on Dec. 20. He also faces a fine of up to $250,000.
A federal judge froze Clement's assets in May as his Ponzi scheme began to collapse.

Title: Native plants to retain slope in Salisbury, CT
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:We want to plant a newly dug out slope with native plants that will retain the dirt. It is sun to part sun near a lake summer cottage. Thanks!!!
The best thing for retention of that slope would be a meadow garden, which combines grasses, which are world class erosion preventers, and wildflowers for a pleasant view from your cottage. Begin by reading our How-To Article, Meadow Gardening. We will follow up by going to our Recommended Species section, clicking on Connecticut on the map, and searching for grasses and wildflowers native to your area that you can plant. You can repeat the same process, going to the Native Plant Database for the grasses, and make your own choices. Follow the plant links to each individual plant webpage to learn propagation techniques, amount of moisture needed,etc.

Ice cream seller Mahmoud Bazzi, 71, is to be returned to his homeland where he could ultimately stand trial for the abduction, torture and double killings while serving with a Christian militia.
Privates Derek Smallhorne and Thomas Barrett were on duty with the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) near the Israeli border on 18 April, 1980 when they were captured.
They had been in a three-vehicle convoy that was stopped by the South Lebanese Army (SLA) which was controlling the war-torn region at the time and in conflict with the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO).
Tensions were high in the area on the day of the attack as the peacekeepers moved supplies to a border post.
Twelve days earlier, clashes between the SLA and Dutch and Irish soldiers serving with the UN left an Irish man and a member of the militia dead.
The SLA had vowed to avenge the killing.
Two eyewitnesses, Associated Press journalist Steve Hindy and former UN peacekeeper John O'Mahony from Scartaglin, Co Kerry, have spoken publicly about how the abduction unfolded.
Private Barrett, 30, from Cork, and Private Smallhorne, 31, from Dublin, were both married with three children.
They were last seen alive in the back of a car driven by SLA militia men as it sped off after the troops were confronted and involved in shoot out.
The men's families have pursued successive Irish Governments to pressurise the US authorities to act against Bazzi for years.
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement declined to comment on the murder case or whether Bazzi will be charged on his arrival in Lebanon. But a spokesman has said the "allegations of what happened in Lebanon factor heavily in our investigation and our efforts to remove him".
He was arrested last month in Dearborn, a community with a strong Middle Eastern population just outside Detroit, Michigan, where he has earned a living driving an ice cream van.
At a hearing in an immigration court on Monday the Lebanese native admitted entering the US in 1994 without proper documentation and providing false information to authorities that helped secured permanent resident status.
The court heard Bazzi lied to obtain lawful immigration status in the country.
The Irish Government has been following developments in the Bazzi deportation case and a representative from the Irish embassy in Washington DC was due to be in court to observe informally.
The US Department of Homeland Security was being kept up to speed with Irish interest in the case, the Department of Foreign Affairs said.
No date for the deportation was confirmed.
Smallhorne and Barrett are among 47 Irish soldiers who have been killed serving in the UN peacekeeping force since 1978.
Bazzi had been investigated by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI). He had originally been traced to the Detroit area by an RTE Prime Time investigation in 2000.
Marlon Miller, special agent in charge of HSI Detroit, said: "One of the agency's highest priorities is to ensure that our nation's immigration system is not exploited by those who seek to illegally gain refuge in the United States by concealing their past.
"We aggressively investigate individuals who enter this country under false pretenses, especially those who hide or misrepresent critical information about their past."
A statement issued by the US embassy in Dublin confirmed Bazzi's court appearance.
The ICE authority said its Human Rights Violators and War Crimes Center investigates those involved in war crimes, genocide, torture and extrajudicial killings who try to evade justice by seeking shelter in the US.
Since 2004, the agency has arrested more than 270 individuals for human rights-related violations under various criminal and/or immigration statutes.
It also secured deportation orders and physically removed more than 650 known or suspected human rights violators.

"The language of scents had not remained stationary since the 1830 epoch. It had continued to develop, had followed the march of the century, had advanced side-by-side with the other arts. Like them, it had adapted itself to the whims of artists and connoisseurs...inventing scented albums, imitating the flower posies of Takeoka, mingling lavender and clove to produce Rondeletia, marrying patchouli and camphor to obtain the singular aroma of China ink." -Joris-Karl Huysmans, from À Rebours.

If your organization's got a lot riding on the continued security of its confidential or proprietary data, then you need to stay informed on the threats and how to address them. One of the most worrying threats of late, especially when it comes to cloud data security, is government spying - both foreign and domestic.
Foreign spying and corporate and economic espionage are, of course, not new concepts, but the enterprise's increasing reliance on the Internet and cloud computing make them more of a concern than ever before. Just this week, the Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. Justice Department has indicted five officers of the Chinese military on charges that they "hacked U.S. companies' computers to steal trade secrets" from firms including U.S. Steel Corp. and Westinghouse Electric Co. Wang Dong, Gu Chunhui, Sun Kailiang, Huang Zhenyu, and Wen Xinyu are the first "employees of a foreign power [to be charged] with cybercrimes against American firms," according to the WSJ, but they won't be the last.
While China is by no means the only nation with alleged hackers under investigation, the Chinese threat to cloud data security is problematic for several reasons. In China's case, all five persons named in the Justice Department indictment are military officers, suggesting Chinese government involvement in the alleged cybercrimes. And Chinese networking gear itself came under fire as early as 2012, when the United States specifically banned appliances from Chinese vendors Huawei and ZTE from use in U.S. government networks. As the devices responsible for passing data back and forth, routers, switches, and other networking gear are especially attractive targets for spies looking to steal sensitive information.
That's not to say that foreign networking equipment and foreign powers are the only things enterprises have to worry about. Allegations that the NSA has been intercepting Cisco gear and inserting spyware in the appliances have driven the networking giant's CEO, John Chambers, to pen an open letter to President Obama "asking that the federal government rein in NSA spying," according to Business Insider. Even if the NSA scales back its surveillance activities, however, the damage has already been done. There's compromised gear out there, and everyone knows it now.
What does all this mean for cloud data security?
Put simply, it means that in this day and age, protecting your data means securing your data. The focus is no longer on simply locking down your infrastructure. You can't rely on network appliances to keep out intruders, because there's no way of being sure that your network appliances haven't themselves already been compromised. The same goes for your cloud service providers. One backdoor in one router may be all it takes to bypass cloud data security measures, leading to a breach.
That's unless the data is itself protected. If your data is secured with strong encryption, and if your organization retains exclusive control to the encryption keys, then your data will remain unreadable to any unauthorized party that tries to access it. A breach in this case will prevent your competitors and governments from doing anything at all with the data they've stolen. For true cloud data protection, you must lock your data down no matter where it goes.
The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade.

Claire Beale on Advertising: A happy anniversary for heritage brands
Monday 11 May 2009
It began with butter. John was a dairyman, so butter was obvious. The best butter in the world, he said, and it's too late to argue.
Some 140 years later and the shop that John Sainsbury launched on Drury Lane in central London to sell the produce from his herd has grown into a retail phenomenon with almost 800 stores, 30,000 product lines and a shiny new commemorative advertising campaign. You might already have seen it: a 60-second romp through Sainsbury's milestones, from selling butter in 1869, to spotting women's potential in the workplace in 1914 via introducing the avocado pear in 1962 to stocking only eggs from cage free British hens in 2009.
It's a lush ad, lovingly created by Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO to capture authenticity – right down to building an exact replica of a Sainsbury's store from 1914. It might remind you a little of last year's Hovis blockbuster celebrating more than 100 years of brand success. The similarities in narrative of the two campaigns are, perhaps, inevitable. But both campaigns reflect an interesting new advertising trend: the birthday campaign.
More and more advertisers are suddenly feeling the need to celebrate their anniversaries. And not even the real milestones. 140 years is a long time, but more significant than 130? Hovis, even more curiously, produced its historical blockbuster to mark 122 years. Are they even now planning another to mark 123? Virgin Atlantic's recent advertising campaign marked its 25 years in business, although the more romantic 21st birthday slipped quietly by.
So why the birthday ad frenzy? Oh, perhaps it's natural when everything's a little gloomy to look for something to celebrate, however tenuous the anniversary. And perhaps it's natural when agency finances are tight to seize every opportunity to persuade clients into an advertising extravaganza.
Of course nostalgia is enjoying a healthy comeback in advertising anyway as companies channel memories of our less complicated past; all this rose-tinted reminiscing creates a warm glow that is helpful to brands. But there's a more strategic insight at play, and it's an insight based around authenticity, reliability and trust – values that in these confusing times we're more hungry for than ever.
Even though recent events in the financial sector have shown that longevity is no guarantee of stability, we are still more likely to see brands that have been around for a long time as reassuring and reliable. Their sheer familiarity is comforting. After all, these are brands that served our parents and our grandparents, they're part of our family history. And they're on the side of the family. With the economy in turmoil, we're putting our trust in those brands that we believe are fighting our corner, brands like Sainsbury's and Virgin that over the years have positioned themselves as champions of the consumer. Really, there's never been a better time for brands to keep prices keen and focus on value as a way of persuading us that they care and it's even more convincing if they can suggest they have our best interests built into their DNA.
But let's not get too romantic. Scrape away the lovely ad campaigns with their cosy nostalgic whimsy and consider that the rise of brands like Sainsbury's and Hovis killed many local family businesses which had been a presence on neighbourhood high streets for generations, trusted by their customers because they knew them all by name. Ironic, then, that canny marketers are now responding to our hunt for the authentic and the trustworthy by turning the wheel almost full circle and adopting the sorts of values and practices that make their brands feel more local and personal: using more local suppliers, employing more personal customer service techniques, featuring real staff in their adverts so we feel more rapport.
Oh, the cynics in us know that it's a corporate trick. But we're playing the game, because in a world of upheaval, heritage brands have become beacons of stability. The brands that have survived wars and cultural revolutions, recessions and depressions are the ones we're clinging to as reliable, reassuring and trustworthy. If I was Sainsbury's, I would be celebrating.

The Prince's Rainforest Project
(Hurrell Moseley Dawson & Grimmer)
Strictly speaking this is not an ad campaign. Prince Charles, starring in an ad? No, no, no. Don't be fooled by the fact that it was created by ad agency Hurrell Moseley Dawson & Grimmer.
It's a film, a film that promotes the Prince's Rainforest Project. And it stars Prince Charles, an array of celebrities and an animated frog. One can only imagine the delicate negotiations and administrative headaches that the agency had to go through to secure the footage and create such an advertising campaign with such an impact.
Thankfully, for the sake of the planet, they did a fine job of it. Watch it at rainforestsos.org and pledge your support.

Simmons, Khan put East in control
Opening batsman Keagon Simmons and off-spin bowler Daniel Khan led from the front yesterday to give the East Zone control at the end of the first day against Central in the BGTT Under-15 InterZone Final at the National Cricket Centre, Couva. Both teams were allotted 31 overs in the first innings when East won the toss and decided to field first. Khan (2/21) and Kristan Kallicharan (2/20) took two wickets apiece to reduce Central to a mediocre 109/6. Earlier, a 40-run fifth-wicket partnership between Matthew Patrick and Brandon Ali rescued Central from an uncomfortable 59/4. The pair joined forces, taking the total to 99, when Ali fell for 18. Opening batsman Crystian Thurton also contributed 23.
In reply, Simmons was in a no nonsense mood, striking eight fours in his knock of 71 at the top of the order, taking East to 126/5. Simmons was well supported by Sachin Seecharan, who made an unbeaten 17. Saiba Batoosingh was the only Central bowler to give the East batsmen some problems, grabbing 3/33. The Central Zone struggled in their second innings, closing on 51/7, with a slim 34-run lead. Khan had devastating figures of seven overs, four maidens, ten runs and four wickets. Kyle Madoo offered some resistance, ending the day on 19 not out. The Central Zone will be counting on Madoo to continue his innings today to give them a chance.
Central 109/6 (31 overs) (Crystian Thurton 23, Matthew Patrick 25 n.o., Shawn Vialva 21, Kristan Kallicharan 2/20, Daniel Khan 2/21) and 51/7 (Kyle Madoo 19 n.o., Vialva 15, Khan 4/10) vs East 126/5 (31 overs) (Keagon Simmons 71, Sachin Seecharan 17 n.o., Saiba Batoosingh 3/33, Madoo 1/25)

Australian skipper Ricky Ponting says leg-spinner Brad Hogg will be a better and more confident bowler in Wednesday's second cricket Test against India at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Hogg, singled out as a weakness by the Indian team before the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne, responded with four match wickets, including Sourav Ganguly twice, in Australia's huge 337-run victory inside four days. The left-arm wrist-spinner delighted Ponting and his team-mates with his clever use of the "flipper" or faster ball which brought Ganguly undone. He played a sizeable role in demolishing the tourists for sub-200 totals in both innings. Hogg's performance and his unbeaten 35 in the second innings with sixes off Indian spinners Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh has guaranteed him a further match in Sydney and clouded the Test future of injured leg-spinner Stuart MacGill. After weathering an early onslaught from Sachin Tendulkar on day two, Hogg regained composure and became a dependable option for Ponting, suffocating the Indian batsmen with a full length, and befuddling them with his wrong'un. "Gilly (vice-captain Adam Gilchrist) and I spoke in the first innings about Hoggy and the way the Indian batsmen were looking to be really aggressive and positive against him," Ponting said after Saturday's win. "We wanted to be able to keep him on and be able to manufacture a couple of wickets for him. We kept him on, hoping he could get a few wickets and get a bit of confidence. "He did that in the first innings and he knocked Ganguly over with one of the best flippers you'll ever see and he got Yuvraj (Singh) with another great flipper. "There's no doubt he's got a lot of confidence out of this game and I think you will see a better and different bowler when we go to Sydney." Indian skipper Kumble, who declared before the match his team's intention to go after Hogg, was complimentary of the West Australian's efforts. "He bowled well," the leg spinner said. "The conditions and situations we were in probably meant we could not go after Brad Hogg. He did bowl well, and credit to the way he bowled." Hogg, 36, playing his first Test in four years, has now taken 13 wickets in five Tests at 45.00 and looking for more wickets on the renowned SCG "turner" later this week.

Major General (Retired) Bruce M. Lawlor (born January 24, 1948) is a retired United States Army officer. He is prominent as the first commander of Joint Task Force-Civil Support. In addition, he was one of five White House staff members who wrote the plan to create the Department of Homeland Security, and he was the first DHS Chief of Staff.
Early life and service in Vietnam[edit]
Bruce Michael Lawlor[1] was born in Bellows Falls, Vermont on January 24, 1948,[2] and graduated from Vermont Academy in 1966.[3] He briefly attended the United States Military Academy[4] before transferring to George Washington University, from which he received a Bachelor of Science degree in political science in 1970.[5]
While attending George Washington University Lawlor was recruited by the Central Intelligence Agency.[6][7] After graduation Lawlor became a full CIA staff member, and took a paramilitary training course and was trained as a foreign intelligence officer.[7] Assigned to the Vietnam Desk at CIA headquarters, he was trained in Vietnam agent operations and took a Vietnamese language course.[7][8] Lawlor was sent to Vietnam in November 1971, and by the beginning of 1972 was working in counterintelligence in the Danang regional headquarters. In summer 1972 Lawlor became Police Special Branch advisor in Quang Nam Province, organising paramilitary Special Branch operations and interrogations, and took part in Phoenix Program operations until 1973; he resigned from the CIA in 1974.[7][9][10][11][12][13]
In 1974 Lawlor received a direct commission in the United States Navy Reserve as an intelligence officer.[14]
Lawlor received his law degree from George Washington University Law School in 1975 and started a practice in Springfield, Vermont.[15]
Political career[edit]
A Democrat, Lawlor was a legal advisor to Governor Thomas P. Salmon.[16] In 1980 Lawlor won election to the Vermont House of Representatives. He served two terms, 1981 to 1985.[15][17]
In 1984 Lawlor won the Democratic nomination for Vermont Attorney General[18] and lost the general election to Jeffrey L. Amestoy.[19]
Continued military career[edit]
In 1979 Lawlor transferred his military membership to the Vermont Army National Guard. Initially assigned as the intelligence officer in an Armor battalion, Lawlor became qualified in the Armor branch and advanced through command and staff positions including: commander of the 86th Armored Brigade's 1st Battalion 172nd Armor Battalion; commander of the 86th Brigade; Special Assistant to the Supreme Allied Commander, Europe; and Assistant Division Commander of the 42nd Infantry Division. In 1986 he graduated from the Command and General Staff College.[20]
In 1996 Lawlor received a Master of Science degree in National Security Studies from Norwich University as part of the Army War College's Senior Service College Fellowship Program (SSCF).[21] In addition, he attended the National Security Fellows Program at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government.[22]
Later military career[edit]
From May 1998 to October 1999 Lawlor served as Deputy Director for Operations, Readiness and Mobilization in the Army's Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans.[23]
From October 1999 until October, 2001 Lawlor was commander of Joint Task Force-Civil Support, the first individual assigned to this position.[24][25] In this assignment Lawlor oversaw creation of the Civil Support Team concept, an initiative that enables the National Guard to play a greater role in responding to domestic terrorism than has historically been allowed since the passage of the Posse Comitatus Act.[26] Lawlor retired from the military in November, 2003.[27]

In 2003 Lawlor earned a Doctor of Science degree in Engineering Management from George Washington University.[33]

Newsmaker of year hits new low: readers
OTTAWA -- The selection of Luka Rocco Magnotta as Canada's 2012 Newsmaker of the Year lit up the country's social media and news websites on Sunday with a cyclone of outrage and condemnation.
The alleged killer, who now sits in a Montreal detention centre as his case goes through the legal process, was the subject of a global manhunt last spring after a Chinese engineering student was killed, his body cut up and his remains mailed to four different locations in Ottawa and British Columbia.
The event, including Magnotta's capture last June at a Berlin Internet café, was splashed across newspaper front pages and websites all over the world.
Magnotta was chosen in the annual poll of the country's newsrooms by The Canadian Press.
Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae was among the first to express his anger and disappointment on Sunday, tweeting to 33,361 followers that the "Canadian Press reaches a new low with its naming Magnotta as 'newsmaker of the year.' Truly disgusting."
After being challenged about the news value in a response by one his followers, Rae went on to say The Canadian Press had resorted to "cheap sensationalism" and that "lots of people had more impact and made more news."
Toronto Liberal MP Carolyn Bennett tweeted the choice was "awful," while Conservative MP Jay Aspin, who represents the northern Ontario riding of Nipissing--Timiskaming, called on the news agency to retract the selection.
"I appeal to decency & better judgement of the Canadian Press and ask them to rescind their choice of Luka Magnotta as Newsmaker of the year," Aspin tweeted.
Magnotta was the choice of 22 per cent of the editors and news directors who cast ballots. The second-place choice with 18 per cent of the votes was Amanda Todd, the B.C. teen whose suicide sparked a debate on bullying. NHL president Gary Bettman and players' union head Donald Fehr were the third choice with 15 per cent of the votes.
The news agency's editor-in-chief noted that over the past few decades the poll has recognized other offensive newsmakers and events.
"The Newsmaker of the Year survey has been conducted by The Canadian Press since 1946 and over the decades, the country's newspaper editors and broadcasters have at times made some controversial selections," said Scott White.
"Ben Johnson won after the steroid scandal in 1988. Russell Williams won two years ago. The Newsmaker isn't an honour or a popularity contest. It's a determination by the journalists in Canada -- the people who make up the front pages and put together the daily newscasts -- about what Canadian made the biggest impact on the news that year. The stories we all cover are sometimes unpleasant and ugly. This choice reflects that reality."
Magnotta has pleaded not guilty to all charges against him. A preliminary hearing for his case is scheduled for March to determine if there is enough evidence for a trial on the allegations against him.

I can't wait to give this to my niece – due to be born any day now. Thank you korpfan övik, for the free pattern on Burda Style! The material I had to work with did not work well with the contrasting pockets, so I instead made a flower out of the same material and plopped it onto the middle front of the dress. I also found this for free on-line, credit provided below.
Pink and white gingham.
