The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies.

These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality.

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Originally written on Celtics Life | Last updated 11/19/14
ESPN: New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony has been suspended one game without pay for confronting Boston's Kevin Garnett in the arena tunnel, near the players' locker rooms, and in the parking garage following Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. "There are no circumstances in which it is acceptable for a player to confront an opponent after a game," NBA executive vice president basketball operations Stu Jackson said in a statement. "Carmelo Anthony attempted to engage with Kevin Garnett multiple times after Monday's game and therefore a suspension was warranted." Anthony has said that he did not believe he deserved to be suspended. "If you just go off the actual facts of what happened, I don't think anything will happen," Anthony said. Here's Doc's thoughts on the suspension:

Bulgaria's FM Kristian Vigenin Meets Serbia's Ivica Dacic
Bulgarian Foreign Minister Kristian Vigenin met Serbian counterpart and Deputy Prime Minister Ivica Dacic during his visit to Belgrade on July 3.
The two agreed that political consultations between would be held this autumn between their institutions to discuss issues regarding bilateral relations, but also Serbia's integration into the EU.
They stressed the importance of the South Stream gas pipeline as a project of interest to both countries, but also to the entire region of Southeast Europe and its energy security.
At a joint press conference with Dacic, Vigenin declared that Bulgaria and Serbia's ability to work together to the benefit of their people "sends clear signals to both businesses and people themselves and provides an incentive to the administration for additional cooperation".
Dacic is quoted as saying he has met his Bulgarian counterparts a few times since assuming the office earlier in 2014, something he pointed as an evidence of the active political dialogue between Bulgaria and Serbia.
Vigenin is also to hold talks with Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic and Parliament Speaker Maja Gojkovic, with Serbia's EU dialogue topping their agenda.

Boasting a unique spin on the 'found footage' subgenre, MOCKINGBIRD seemed like it was going to be a tense second film from Bertino. Unfortunately, MOCKINGBIRD is the definition of sophomore slump. It possesses some of the simplistic […]

Upcoming TALES OF HALLOWEEN Anthology Boasts GREAT Horror Lineup!!; Begins Shooting In November!
Posted by Jerry Smith on October 31, 2014 · Leave a Comment
I'm an anthology nut. Sure there are definitely a decent amount of uneven and/or straight up bad ones, but the ones that do it right, REALLY work well for me. I just love the idea of horror filmmakers taking the short form of filmmaking and telling quality stories in a limited amount of time, which […]

Devastating tornadoes and widespread flooding have become common words in weather headlines so far this year, bringing a new group of disasters for FEMA to fund while still being committed by law to the Gulf Coast's rebuilding efforts almost six years after hurricanes Katrina and Rita washed ashore.
According to a report from NPR, the mix of new federally declared emergencies in the Midwest and the South and the billions of dollars worth of recovery projects for past disasters has created a bit of a "cash flow" problem for FEMA, an acronym that needs no further explanation for the hundreds of thousands of Gulf Coast residents who were forced to turn to the federal agency when storms destroyed their livelihoods.
While FEMA is scrambling to funnel money to the towns where hundreds have died from tornadoes and other areas inundated with flood waters, it also is contributing billions to roads, schools and other projects in communities where disasters hit years ago:
Under law, FEMA has the obligation not just to respond to emergencies in the moment but also to help communities rebuild over time.
"There are countless, probably over several hundred what we call 'open' disasters — that means they have happened over the past 10 to 15 years even — that FEMA is still reconciling the rebuilding of schools or the rebuilding of town halls, city halls, water treatment plants," says Barry Scanlon, a former FEMA executive, "and that can go on for some time."
The challenge for FEMA is funding the long-term projects while keeping enough cash on hand to respond to new disasters. Last summer, for instance, FEMA interrupted work on long-term projects in order to preserve a cushion for current disasters. The stoppage affected several projects in New Orleans, according to Deputy Mayor [Cedric] Grant.
The U.S. House last week approved a measure to appropriate an extra $1 billion for FEMA's Disaster Relief Fund, adding to the already $2.4 billion already sitting in the account. Arguments followed over whether the $1 billion was enough with an already "tough" year and hurricane season just beginning, but FEMA officials told NPR that disaster-ridden towns shouldn't be too worried, as long as the flooded and tornado-struck towns don't send too many more bills to FEMA – and so long as the South doesn't experience another Katrina.
But those assurances from FEMA are less encouraging when coupled with the recent prediction that Louisiana faces a 47 percent chance of a hurricane making landfall this year and a 20 percent chance that said hurricane could be a major one.

NOV 26 Zach Kopplin, who we came to know and love when he was a Louisiana high school student lobbying for the continued inclusion of science stuff in science class, pens this post in The Atlantic about a "textbook" available for social studies instruction in Texas that discusses how Moses contributed to the Constitution. (Oy! Texas rednecks love Jews. Who knew?)
NOV 26 Finally, mad people on the interwebz is a good thing! World wide webby outrage has caused the village of Moreauville to reverse its plan to confiscate pit bulls and Rottweillers and euthanize them simply because of their breed, WAFB reports here. The plan? They're going to enforce the leash law. Well, that would have been a good place to start.
NOV 26 Jim Brown, like many of us Louisiana voters, seems fed up with out of town know-it-alls trying to tell us what to do. Bill Cassidy can't make it through the day without flying someone in to "tell us political retards" how to vote, he says.
NOV 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about the behavior of the two finalists in the 6th Congressional District race: Edwin Edwards and Garret Graves. Edwards has come out swinging, but Graves' campaign seems bent on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, Tom says.
NOV 26 Blogger CB Forgotston is confused, he says, because Governor Bobby Jindal said higher education wouldn't get cut, but it looks like it is being cut. CB's asking: When is a cut not a cut?
NOV 26 Unless you're in Virigina, you shouldn't count on seeing our Governor on Election Day. Mark Ballard writes in the Advocate's political blog that Bobby will be appearing at a GOP love fest of some kind there, instead of spending the day here.
NOV 26 This post on The Lens takes a look at the ongoing dispute in New Orleans over the banners about the upcoming tax election for the school system. The banners are hanging on schools, and some feel they are promotional, which is not allowed, instead of educational - which is allowed.
NOV 26 Not all college students are focused on football games and parties at this time of year. This post on DIG Baton Rouge recounts an LSU student group that tries to make sure that those who are hungry and homeless are not forgotten by those of us who aren't.
NOV 25 Edwin Edwards took off the gloves on Monday, this post on WAFB tells us. At a Press Club appearance, he wondered how his 6th Congressional District opponent, Garret Graves, could be an expert in all the areas in which he claims to be - when he has no college degree in anything. (Five years - FIVE YEARS - in college, but no degree. Huh?)
NOV 25 Blogger Mike Deshotels offers this primer on predatory charter schools and how they operate, specifically in Louisiana. They're not just profiting from our tax dollars, they're using children and shortchanging them to do so, Deshotels says.
NOV 25 Here's a link to the petition that has been created to save Zeus, a family dog who is targeted for death by the learned fathers of the Avoyelles Parish village of Moreauville. They passed an ordinance based on nothing that outlaws pit bulls and Rotweillers. As of Tuesday morning, the petition had more than 230,000 signatures - a number that's a wee bit higher than the village population of 929.

A Minnesota law treats sex trafficked minors as victims rather than criminals and it is helping Northland leaders fight the problem. In Duluth on Saturday, Sen. Amy Klobuchar pushed to spread that law nationwide.
Senator Klobuchar was a prosecutor herself, and said she knows how minors forced into the sex trade have been punished by the legal system. However, Duluth and St. Louis County leaders said the safe harbor law in Minnesota allows minors to be treated as victims instead of criminals.
Klobuchar met with those leaders at Life House in Duluth on Saturday. The drop in center for homeless youth recently received a $200,000 state grant to help the young victims escape exploitation.
During the press conference, Klobuchar said sex trafficking of minors is a national problem. She said the crime's prevalence has been highlighted in recent years by online advertisements selling young girls as Super Bowl specials.
"Because the Super Bowl is always one of the great American events, but it's also, sadly, an event that can attract perpetrators and people that are selling young kids for sex," Klobuchar said.
She said the crime will be fought on a local level, and safe harbor laws are necessary to combat it. St. Louis County Attorney Mark Rubin agreed saying victims need to feel the law can help them.
"We want that victim to know that there is community support and that we're going to do the best job possible if she or he is willing to step forward," Rubin said.
Duluth Police Chief Gordon Ramsay also spoke at the conference. He said research shows teenage victims often come from troubled situations.
"We now know today that about 65 percent of all runaways are trafficked sexually somehow," Ramsay said.
He said that has led to changes in law enforcement to reflect the idea of safe harbor for victims.
Klobuchar hopes the approach that is working in the Northland can spread nationwide. She sponsored the Stop Exploitation Through Trafficking Act that would push states to adopt safe harbor laws or face cuts to federal law enforcement funding. She said the bill has bipartisan support.

2013 turnarounds: Will Yahoo, H-P and Zynga avoid extinction?
Send this to a friend
- Jon Xavier
- Technology Reporter- Silicon Valley Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Are Yahoo Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co. and Zynga Inc. lumbering toward extinction? Or will they adapt to a changing Silicon Valley?
Evolution and extinction are part of the ethos here. New companies come up with new solutions to old problems, pushing the giants of yesteryear aside. Those upstart companies grow, dominate, stagnate, and at some point, are supplanted.
2013 cheat sheet: Here's what the year meant to businesses in Silicon Valley
It's less common for one of the companies that have been shoved aside to take a battering and fight its way back to relevance. In 2013, we witnessed three former powerhouses attempting to claw their way back to life.
There was Yahoo, a company that's been on life support for the better part of a decade. It was nearly killed off for good by a messy power struggle on the board, and is now grasping for new life with Marissa Mayer as CEO.
There was Hewlett-Packard, a Silicon Valley institution now sliding into irrelevance that managed to punctuate its slow decline with one of the poorest displays of corporate judgment in recent memory.
And there was Zynga, just a few short years ago one of the Valley's fastest-rising stars, now hemorrhaging talent and fighting for solvency in a market that shifted out from under it as fast as the company had ascended.
Not all of these companies have approached their turnaround with equal grace, but they're all still fighting. Here's a look back at what happened with each, and what their prospects look like for 2014.
The Success Story — Yahoo
While it's not out of the woods yet, Yahoo seems to have come the farthest in arresting its death spiral in 2013, which is pretty impressive when you look at where it was last year. Dwindling profits, huge amounts of drama at the top, and an executive team that couldn't even decide if Yahoo was a technology company or not — let alone point the way forward.
Jon Xavier is the technology reporter at the Silicon Valley Business Journal.

looks like it has two
looks like it has two independent triggers, that fact that you can squeeze both at the same time is moot. This has to have already been BATFE approved else they wouldn't be going into production. Anyone else remember the 28GA Raging Judge by Taurus? BATFE killed that dragon.
If that is true, what happens
If that is true, what happens when you only pull one trigger? It's not going to cycle, the slide is one piece for both barrels. It's not like pulling both triggers on a double barrel shotgun.

The video above shows you the steps needed to check the power steering fluid level in your 2008 Hummer H3. Checking the power steering fluid level in your H3 is relatively easy and should be done once a month or if you are experienced difficulty turning the wheel or steering your H3. Your H3 should be parked on a level surface and your 3.7 liter engine should be cold to the touch.
If the power steering fluid level in your H3 is low, fill it up to the maximum line with power steering fluid and check it again in a week to determine if you have a leak.

A team of students at MIT have developed a 3D printer for ice cream.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Gsecqz4qWw]
According to one of the stuents:
We were inspired to design this printer because we wanted to make something fun with this up and coming technology in a way that we could grab the attention of kids. We felt that it was just as important to come up with a new technology as it was to interest the younger generation in pursuing science and technology so we can continue pushing the limits of what is possible.
"We imagine this technology being marketable in ice cream parlors such as Dairy Queen where customers can order an ice cream treat, wait 15 minutes, and see the shape they chose be created."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Happy 84th Birthday Gordie Howe
by Paul on 03/31/12 at 01:01 AM ET
Comments (1)
I first saw Gordie Howe play 50 years ago and since that day, he has become my one and only idol in life.
I have followed his career for 50 years but it seems like yesterday when I would meet him after a home game at the Olympia and he would poke me with his elbow and take my pen.
I only wish somehow I could provide him the joy and memories he gave me.
Enjoy the day Mr. Howe, I am sure you don't realize how many lives you have touched in such a positive way.
It's All About Respect.

Happy Birthday Gordie! I remember him leaving the Olympia at the Hooker Street door most every game I attended there. He was always signing something and taking lots of time for us fans.
It is all about respect. He showed it and received it every shift.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

Kirilenko a max guy?
Updated: October 21, 2004, 12:40 PM ETBy Chad Ford | ESPN Insider
Five observations from Jazz training camp, based on an Oct 15-16 visit:
The talks between the Jazz and Andrei Kirilenko's representative Marc Fleisher on a new contract have gotten tough over the past week. Kirilenko has become increasingly frustrated that the two sides have been unable to reach a deal on a six-year extension.
Both sides agree it has begun to affect the 23-year-old All-Star in camp.
"I'm angry," Kirilenko said. "I just want to earn what I believe I'm worth. It bothers me, because I want to be very important player on this team. If not, it's OK. It won't affect me."

June 17, 2011 ~ zip lines and tree climbs and bungee - I'm in!
by Lissa
posted Jun 17 2011 9:39AM
Thankfully there were no lurkers outside my house last night. I had a delightfully restful five hours of sleep (hey, that's about an hour more than I usually get). Now I'm diligently plowing through my workday because I MUST leave on time – I'm heading out to CBK Mountain Adventures to do the treetop obstacle course with my friend Megan this afternoon. If you're ever looking for a full-body workout that is INSANELY FUN – do this! It doesn't even seem like you're working out, but you wake up the next day and your muscles feel sooooooo tight! They've got suspended bridges, scramble nets, swinging logs, zip lines – it's the PERFECT way for an adventure lover to spend a beautiful NEPA afternoon! So that's what I'm gonna do. Excited!
Then I'm back in Wilkes Barre tonight, probably gonna hit up Mulligan's with Amanda for some adult bevvies (depending on how tired I am from the obstacle course). And I can't WAIT to see Green Lantern! I asked Rocky & Sue if they wanted to go with me and Sue's exact response was "Wow. You wanna SEE that gigantic pile of crap?" Ha! Guess that's a no….
HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND! Talk to you Monday!
Here's me later today..........

I'm something of a traditionalist. My family tends to gravitate toward the same desserts every year for our holiday celebrations – sugar cookies, something pumpkin, and something with chocolate…but this year, I was feeling like trying something new. Enter Cranberry Pavlova. This recipe is part of our 2014 Holiday Brochure, and I was in love at first bite.
Bring the bold flavors of
ginger and sesame to a
variety of meals.
Life gets extra busy this time of year. Like everyone else, my family has the normal action-packed schedule…work, basketball practice, piano lessons, gymnastics, homework…not to mention, fitting in holiday activities like baking cookies, shopping, cutting down the tree… More ...

Rachel's dream is over as she becomes the ninth contestant to be eliminated from BBC One's I'd Do Anything.
After a public vote Rachel and Samantha were the least popular Nancys and Andrew Lloyd Webber decided to save Samantha.
So Rachel is the ninth Nancy to leave the competition.
In Saturday's live show, all four remaining Nancy finalists performed solo renditions of musical theatre numbers chosen to show viewers that they have the skill and sheer charisma to carry one of the most challenging roles in musical theatre.
In addition to this Jodie and Samantha performed a duet of Superstar from Jesus Christ Superstar and Rachel and Jessie performed Buenos Aires from Evita.
After performing their songs and receiving feedback from Andrew Lloyd Webber and the expert panel of John Barrowman, Denise Van Outen, Barry Humphries and Cameron Mackintosh, the Nancys faced a nervous wait for viewers to cast their votes.
On Rachel's performance Denise said: "Everything that I've been looking for. Rachel that was phenomenal, you were absolutely fantastic, I am shaking with excitement. We all jumped to our feet and gave you a standing ovation. That is everything we want to see from our leading lady and how the other girls are going to follow that performance. it's going to be tough for them tonight. That was absolutely brilliant."
Barry said: "We did this funny little mission this week in a strange part of the East End and you were great, you were the finest performer really as an actress and tonight you gave a star performance Rachel, congratulations."
John said: "If there's any confusion, here you go – that was Rachel, Rachel, Rachel. This girl is an actress, she has the ability to play any character and she definitely has the ability to play Nancy. She should be in the final next week."
Cameron said: "By George she's got it. You took a wonderfully well-known song and you infused it with your own personality. You rose to the challenge, it was absolutely terrific and I would love to see you play Nancy on the West End Stage."
Rachel and Samantha gained the least amount of votes and had to sing a rendition of one of Andrew's own songs, Memory, from the musical Cats.
Then, for the last time, it was up to Andrew Lloyd Webber alone to choose which Nancy should be saved for the final week.
Andrew said: "Well, first off, I'm sure Cameron's going to share this with me, this is the most devastating moment because Memory was sung by a young cat to the older cat and it was everything about the first show that we did together and I know if I may say that last night Cameron and I were both saying that we thought both of you would be fantastic Nancys and now here am I faced with this.
"I mean really it's an impossible choice because on the one hand Samantha you're fabulous you've got everything ahead of you, Rachel you did a wonderful performance last night of Cabaret and I really don't know what to say.
"But I've got to make a decision and I've got to think of where the show ultimately for Cameron is going to go and I think I have to go with you Samantha.
"And it was a fantastic performance tonight, I just know you've got this huge career ahead of you and also I have a sneaking suspicion you'll play Nancy. One day. You were fantastic."
After hearing the announcement Rachel said: "I'm absolutely devastated that I didn't make it into the final. After getting into the last 12 that was my aim.
"It's been the most unbelievable experience of a lifetime and I don't regret a single minute of it. I'm glad I went out on such a high."
The final three – Jessie, Jodie and Samantha – will go on to next week's final where they will again perform for the nation who will decide who should be Nancy in the new Cameron Mackintosh West End production of Oliver!

According to the Huffington Post, "Movember began in 2003 in Melbourne with just 30 men. Since then Movember has grown to include over 4 million participants and raised $559 million worldwide for men's health initiatives (1). And like the pink ribbon is to breast cancer, facial hair of all shapes, sizes, and thickness (some more impressive than others), have become the emblem of men's health allowing our male counterparts to finally feel comfortable talking about their bodies and wellbeing."
To read more about the movement and men's health, go to:
I came across this resource this week -- there are several excellent consumer fact sheets around 9 goals of the campaign:
Organizational Goals
Clinical Outcomes
To learn more about the campaign and to get involved, go to:
Did you know:
Common symptoms of diabetes:
It is true what they say ---there is something about sitting down and sharing a meal with friends and family -- it does more than just satisfy our need for food, it nourishes the soul as well. Something about sharing food and sitting down to eat it brings out stories and memories and creates new ones. It is virtually impossible to sit through a meal and not engage in conversation. The time and care that goes into preparing and serving the meal, the pleasure that one gets seeing other's enjoying what you have made, and, the conversations that take place all make for one of the most personal and enjoyable experiences in life -- simple, caring, and, nurturing in so many ways.
Now that fall is upon us and the holidays are just around the corner, there will be many occasions to enjoy a family dinner -- take advantage of being able to bring multiple generations and a variety of friends and family together to share the stories of life over great food.
Hugs are a simple yet powerful gesture - understood the world over. Hugs can express love, express sympathy, express compassion, express support, etc., etc. Here is a great story of recognition for an 82 year old woman who has been given hugs to soldiers for years:
And, if you need a reason to give hugs, here are 10:
for having the courage to share your journey with Alzheimer's with the world. This glimpse into the disease is heartwarming and real -- it humanizes the disease. While this disease may rob an individual of their memories and eventually their life, there are amazing pieces of an individuals' heart and soul that shine through throughout.
YOU have made a difference, and, it is our hope and prayer that someday soon this disease is merely "Something that people used to get!"
An interesting article appeared in my inbox this week -- it was an article that shared the story of the interrelated nature of caregiver and patient, and, the need for the medical system to consider them as one unit together. In other words, when the caregiver has an illness or get's hurt, it affects the patient, and, therefore the two are more intertwined then the current healthcare system recognizes.
To read the article, the challenges the current system creates, and, the expanding role of family caregivers, go to:
As, a caregiver, plan for the unexpected and develop a plan should you need "help" - if you don't no one else will.
This is why I will continue to support the Walk, year after year:
A couple of weeks ago, a friend and I were having a discussion about a child who was exhibiting signs of ADHD; the discussion revolved around not wanting to place the child on conventional drugs, but, rather wanting to try neurofeedback -- a procedure that effectively tries to help children and teach their brains to respond differently. So instead of treating the symptoms with drugs and potential side effects, you treat the causes which relieves the symptoms. That seems to make sense.
A little later, I ran across this article by the Cleveland Clinic about the new way of looking at health which is called Functional Medicine. Functional Medicine "is medicine by cause, not by symptom." Neurofeedback is a form of functional medicine.
To read more about "Feeling Your Best With Functional Medicine" and the medical conditions that it is best utilized on, go to:
There were two shining examples in the media this week of what can happen when you don't let the "BUT" come into the equation.
One story is of a teenager who has developed an exciting way to monitor an Alzheimer's patient using a sock and a sensor in the sock that alerts the caregiver if they are wandering or walking and in danger of being lost. The love of his grandfather who is suffewring from Alzheimer's sparked this idea. See the story here:
And, the other is of a 10 year old boy who started his own cookie business to take care of his mom. See the story here:
Both of these stories are a great example of what can be done if you explore the possibilities and don't let yourself think of the "but" when you come up with an idea and/or solution. Interesting that they are both young ---maybe the "but"s creep in when we grow older?
