Future's not bright for Bayshore sunglass thieves
The lure of high-priced sunglasses proved tough to resist last week as three incidents of shoplifting occurred at a Bayshore Town Center store.
In the first, a 24-year-old Mercer, Wis., man was arrested for theft of three pairs of sunglasses valued at $435 from Sunglass Hut, 490 W. Northshore Drive, at 11 a.m. July 10 in Glendale.
The man left the store but was identified because he had purchased a pair of glasses and filled out a warranty card. He was ordered into the station where he admitted taking the glasses saying he did because he had a pair stolen a few days before.
A few hours later, at 7 p.m., an 18-year-old Milwaukee man was arrested for theft of one pair of $150 glasses. He ran from the mall and across a street. When stopped, he said he ran because he thought the police "were going to rob him." Then he said he ran because he was "out for a jog to cool off."
And at 8:40 p.m., a man took three pairs of sunglasses valued at $550 but police were not notified. An officer reported the theft during a follow-up.
Brown Deer boys hoops team falls to inspired King, 68-52, in opener
A few years ago, in Brown Deer boys' basketball coach Kelly Appleby's first game, his Falcons played and lost to Milwaukee Marshall-Morse in the season-opening Fresh Coast Classic.
It was a sloppy, entertaining game played early in the day, fitting of a contest between striving teams trying to get better. Events such as the Fresh Coast usually ramp up the schedule over the course of the day saving the best games for the late-night, prime-time slots.
Flash-forward to tonight at the Klotsche Center on the UW-Milwaukee campus and guess who had a lock on one of those prime-time spots in the latest edition of the Fresh Coast Classic: None other than Appleby's defending WIAA State D3 champion Falcons.
But their opponent, Milwaukee King, had already proven its credentials for the late game slot time and again over the last 30 years, including the Generals' recent run of three straight trips to the D1 state tournament.
And on this night in their season opener, the slightly rebuilding Falcons were caught between a rock and a hard place, as the Generals surprised them by sitting back in a zone defense and then clogging the passing lanes.» Read Full Article
Wisconsin native killed in robbery attempt on California hiking trail
A Wisconsin native who was an award-winning writer was killed in an apparent robbery attempt while hiking near his home in California.
David Ruenzel, 60, was hiking in the Huckleberry Regional Preserve in Oakland on Tuesday afternoon when witnesses heard three gunshots. One of the witnesses then found Ruenzel wounded along a trail in that area, according to East Bay Regional Park District Police.
Two men entered the trail just before the sound of gunshots, witnesses told police, and those men are considered persons of interest in the case. So far, no arrests have been made.
"It was not unusual for him if he had a free hour or two to hike the trails," his wife, Nancy Aldrich-Ruenzel, said Friday. "Those are trails that I've walked with him on. That was part of the texture of his life. He was a very contemplative man, and he liked to go hiking."
Ruenzel graduated from Whitefish Bay High School in 1973 and often walked with his father, Fred, in natural areas near Milwaukee.» Read Full Article
Nicolet tennis court project receives rezoning approval from River Hills
River Hills — Nicolet High School's proposed 13-court tennis complex is one step closer to becoming a reality, due to action taken by the River Hills Village Board on Friday, Nov. 21.
River Hills trustees unanimously agreed to rezone the property at 535 and 617 West Green Tree Road to allow for the construction of the tennis courts. The board also granted a special use permit for the tennis courts, which would be located on a 3-acre plot of land north of the football field.
The two Green Tree Road parcels consist of two houses owned by the school district. One of those homes will be torn down to make way for the future expansion of I-43, while the other home is being torn down to accommodate the proposed tennis court complex.
The rezoning approval from River Hills clears the way for Nicolet to move forward with an ambitious athletic facilities renovation plan.
"This was the linchpin to the whole process because our plan really revolved around utilizing this property," Nicolet Superintendent Robert Kobylski said of the tennis court property. "If we didn't have the ability to do that, we would have had to start over."» Read Full Article
The Cheel offers a taste of Nepal in Thiensville
A Nepali restaurant in Thiensville? I heard that more times than I could keep straight after the Cheel opened in summer in the little village's downtown. Everyone was expecting German, maybe?
It's a rare cuisine here, surely. The Cheel is the Milwaukee area's only restaurant serving dishes mainly from Nepal (a food truck last year served Nepali dumplings, and its operators hoped to open a bricks-and-mortar restaurant). That rarity alone would make it a must-try for curious food lovers.
But Cheel owners Jesse and Barkha Daily have also created a warm and convivial place for dinner and drink, after an extensive renovation that saved this Thiensville landmark from the wrecking ball. They work the room like hosts at a party, and their attention to detail in the restaurant comes across, down to the imported brass utensils.
It's an intimate restaurant — it seats 60 all told, in a small dining area and a bar area with high-top tables and a vintage Art Deco bar, serving a list of smart cocktails.
Like the dining room, the menu isn't oversized, but there are soul-satisfying dishes to choose from. They're found in the small plates that could be an appetizer or a feast in themselves, along with a half-dozen substantial soups and salads, and another half-dozen or so entrées. With Nepal between Tibet and India, the dishes show influences from both, and dishes branch out toward Burma as well.» Read Full Article

Mequon teen ODs on alcohol after chugging gin with Cedarburg girls
according to mycedarburg.online.com.A 17-year-old Mequon boy wound up at Children's Hospital with a blood-alcohol level of 0.347 after he, another 17-year-old boy from Mequon and two 13-year-old Cedarburg girls chugged a bottle of gin in less than an hour,
According to the report, Cedarburg police say the two girls were bored at one of their homes on Nov. 7, walked to the Piggly Wiggly grocery store, stole a bottle of gin and met up with the two boys to drink it.
The boy was hospitalized after the mother of one of the girl's called his father to pick him up at 10 p.m. Nov. 7, according to the report. The father found him unconscious, took him to Columbia-St. Mary's Hospital in Mequon before he was transferred to Children's.
A 0.347 blood-alcohol count is more than four times the level considered evidence of intoxication in Wisconsin. Children's Hospital notified Cedarburg police.
Rebuilt Fox Point footbridge opens
An old community landmark got new life Sunday with the opening of the Bridge Lane ravine footbridge in Fox Point.
The project is the result of a public-private partnership that saw roughly half the funds for construction coming from private donors.
"The bridge is now officially opened, and we're all happy," said Barbara Schwartz, president of Footbridge Friends, the nonprofit raising money for the project.
The Fox Point Village Board voted in April to accept a bid of $876,496 to rebuild the bridge. Crews broke ground in August and lifted the final section of the span into place this month.
Footbridge Friends is to contribute $515,000 to the overall costs, which include additional expenses for the demolition of the old span and inspections and related costs for the new bridge.» Read Full Article
Menasha's late score stuns Homestead in state football semifinals, 8-7
"That decision was made years ago. I just took the time-out to think about it a little more."
That was the frank and honest answer of Menasha football coach Jeramie Korth as to how much thought went into the idea of going for a two-point conversion with 31 seconds left in the WIAA State D2 semifinal with Homestead on a chilly Saturday afternoon at Ripon's Ingalls Field.
The bold and affirmative choice to do so was confirmed a few moments later. Bluejay quarterback Tyler Johnson, who had scored from two yards out a minute or so earlier, faked a run to the middle, and then pitched it out to running back Jadin Sell who sailed easily into the end zone.
Menasha, who had struggled to score all day against stout resistance from Homestead, just earned its most important points of the season as it went up 8-7.
And its defense made it stand up.» Read Full Article
Goldi shoe and fashion store in Shorewood to close
Goldi, a longtime fixture on the Milwaukee retail scene, will close on Jan. 15.Upscale shoe and fashion shop
Owners Goldi and Mark Miller are closing the store, 4114 N. Oakland Ave., Shorewood, to focus on their rapidly growing Fashion Angels Enterprises.
"Fashion Angels is a business that is taking all of our time, and more," Mark Miller said Thursday in an interview at the company's headquarters in the Third Ward.
He and his wife opened their first Goldi store 42 years ago in Madison, while they were 19-year-old students at the University of Wisconsin. The concept eventually expanded to 10 stores, including shops at Mayfair Mall, in Milwaukee's Grand Avenue and on Chicago's North Michigan Avenue.
The Shorewood store, the last remaining outlet, opened about 20 years ago. With the lease expiring and neither of the Millers sons, both in investment banking, interested in taking over the shop, the time is right to close what has "turned into a hobby," Goldi Miller said.» Read Full Article

Bayshore neighbors bridle at falling assessments
Whitefish Bay — Joe and Michelle Lapinske bought their three-bedroom Whitefish Bay house in 2011. By last year, its assessed value had increased to $246,000.
So it was jarring when, amid a reviving Milwaukee-area housing market, their home recently received a new assessed value of $187,000 — a 24% drop from 2013.
"We're very disappointed, and very concerned," said Joe Lapinske.
The couple live on a three-block stretch of N. Lydell Ave., just across from Bayshore Town Center in neighboring Glendale, where other houses also have been hit with sharp declines in their assessed values from 2013 to 2014.
Those drops are tied to Bayshore, which in 2006 underwent a major expansion that included a new, four-level parking structure built just across Lydell Ave. from some of those homes. Lydell Ave. is the border between Glendale and Whitefish Bay.» Read Full Article
Stunning rally sends Homestead past Cedarburg
It was really no gamble at all in the viewpoint of Homestead football coach Dave Keel.
The Highlanders had just taken advantage of an enormous break in Friday's WIAA State D2, Level 3 playoff game with archrival Cedarburg. A bad snap to the back-up Bulldogs punter had set up the Highlanders on the Bulldogs 38-yard line with 1:46 left and Homestead trailing, 14-7.
As one Homestead player had screamed as he ran out onto the field after the turnover: "This is our miracle, let's use it!"
And they did, as five plays later, quarterback Nick Allen found end Patrick Minkin on a wheel route close to the front right corner of Homestead end zone. He was pushed across the line to complete the 18-yard TD play with just 41 seconds to go.
Now the game was in Keel's hands, he of four WIAA state titles and conference championships too numerous to count. Go for the tie and overtime before a full-throated home crowd or roll the dice and go for the win down 14-13?» Read Full Article

FINALIST: Best Home Theater $100,000 to $250,000
There's a certain formula that custom electronics professionals use to determine how far to situate the seats from the screen. In this 14-by-16-foot converted playroom, that placement happened to be against the back wall. Lined with a 14-foot-long custom-made couch, the back provides room for the entire family to sprawl. Unfortunately, it's also the place where bass collects from the surround-sound system.
"Bass tends to gather in different areas of the room at different levels," explains Gustavo Serafini, co-owner of Pure Audio Video, Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "The back wall tends to be where most of it congregates." When there's too much bass in one area, the audio can end up sounding too "boomy," which can overshadow important passages of dialogue and special effects. To tame the unruly bass, Pure Audio Video engineered and constructed a total of six bass traps. Made of a combination of plywood and insulation, two of the specially designed treatments were built into each corner of the floor riser; the remaining four went into a custom-built ceiling soffit.
Premade acoustical treatments such as bass traps are available from a variety of manufacturers, but in this case, Pure Audio Video thought it was best to make their own. "Most bass traps are designed to be placed in the corners of a room," Serafini explains. "But because there was limited wall space, we had to design them to go elsewhere."
Boomy bass audio wasn't the only acoustical issue. The nearly square shape of the room would create sound distortion. A combination of reflective and diffusive acoustical treatments was added to preclude this problem. Panels of MDF (medium-density fiberboard) and insulation were mounted to the surface of the ceiling between decorative cypress beams. These uneven treatments help to diffuse the sound so that it's more immersive and three-dimensional, according to Serafini. Too much diffusion can be a bad thing, though, so five absorptive fiberglass panels were mounted in key areas on the walls to round out the audio and ensure that the special effects would sound realistic and dynamic. Both the ceiling and wall panels were covered in fabric to complement the room design. The chosen colors blend with the paint, so they're completely indiscernible.
How did Pure Audio Video know what to use and where to put all the various acoustical treatments? Through lots of engineering and testing, says Serafini. A sophisticated acoustical engineering computer program indicated the best locations for the treatments. To ensure the positioning was correct, Pure Audio Video used a sound meter to measure the audio, making sure the bass is smooth and the sound from each speaker arrives at the right time and level for all viewers. Calibration of the equipment was the final step. Together, the engineering, testing and calibration was process tacked a couple of hours onto Pure Audio Video's labor time, but improved the theater's audio performance by at least 30 percent, Serafini says.
Acoustical analysis is a service Serafini recommends to all of his home theater clients, one that can add at least $250 to the bottom line. For this project, the acoustical engineering and products accounted for almost 15 percent of the final $170,000 cost, which also included all the construction, furnishings, equipment and labor.
Don't have the budget for specialty acoustical treatments? You can improve the sound in your media space affordably by using furnishings and materials you already own. According to custom electronics professionals, you'll need a good mix of absorptive and diffusive items. Such as: good absorbers, window draperies, pillows, areas rugs, plush furniture, good diffusers, bookshelves, wall art, wood moldings.

Music for the Changing SeasonPosted by Judith Lang Zaimont in chamber music, Composers, Judith Lang Zaimont, tags: climate, listeners, nature, outdoors, piano trio, seasons, temperate zones, weather, Zones
"Temperate" — a beautiful fresh video by videographer Michael Bregman celebrating the wide spectrum of weathers and the glories of seasonal change in our own temperate climate.
"Temperate" is a movement from my piano trio, ZONES. It's a deconstructed rondo whose theme is fully expressed at the close of the seven-minute movement. And like a number of my other works, it draws its inspiration from the world of nature.

During the 1960s, rock music truly came into its own when musicians re-wrote the book on electric guitar by conjuring fantastic sounds and styles never before imagined. Leading the sonic charge during that exciting decade was the Stratocaster® guitar, which became not only an even more versatile musical tool, but also a true cultural symbol.
The Classic Series '60s Stratocaster Lacquer evokes that golden chapter in Fender history with an authentic nitrocellulose lacquer finish on its sleek alder body. Other features include a "C"-shaped maple neck, 7.25"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets and vintage-style ivory-dot inlays, three vintage-style single-coil pickups with five-way switching, multi-ply pickguard, aged control knobs and switch tip, vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge and vintage-style tuners. Tweed case included.

I checked this one out in the local music store and this guitar is just amazing, the feel, the look, the sound, the touch! I'd buy it without a second thought - if it weren't for the colour. A wider range of colours would make this guitar a keeper for decades to come! So, I've got high hopes for the upcoming music fairs. Please, please Fender, do us a favour!
the most beautiful guitar i've ever seen!!
i mean look at that colour! if i had enough money, this would be the kind of guitar i'd buy.
I have played 4 or 5 of these and they are spectacular.
I would have purchased one instantly if it was a different color.
Very tired of sunburst. Olympic white? Dakota? Fiesta?
C'mon Fender.. Make my day!
Tongo owns this item
I just bought this beauty and I feel more than happy because I'm a vintage guitar lover!
This comes in a beautiful tweed case which is one more thing that I like.
Everything is perfect with this guitar and the finish looks great!
The aged white plastics and the vintage tuners add more of that 60's vibe.
I also like the 7.25" radius and the thick C-shaped neck,both of which are vintage correct.
The only downside is the pickups that sound weak and are noisy in all 5 positions,
so I'll buy new pups as soon as possible.
All in all if you want to buy a vintage guitar and you have a tight budget, I'm sure this one won't let you down!
Kostas stratomaster owns this item
Just bought this one.
I already love it: beautiful, no defaults, sounds... well it sounds like it has to sound, like a good Fender stratocaster does since 195...
So clearly I don't see any more reason to get it!
Muchas gracias Mexico para el precio, always noticeable here in Europe.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) - Alexandria City Public Schools will likely eliminate high school class rankings, joining the area's larger school systems.
The Washington Examiner ( http://bit.ly/VsZq8q) reports the move would toss out valedictorian status in high school in an effort to focus on graduating well-rounded students.
T.C. Williams High School Principal Suzanne Maxey recommended the change. Superintendent Morton Sherman will make the final decision. He says he's "leaning toward" eliminating rankings. He says it's an issue of fairness.
Sherman says rankings discourage students from taking electives that aren't weighted as heavily in grade point averages. Classes like art and band weren't weighted as heavily as honors-level courses.
But students have called for arts and technical electives to be weighted like honors courses.
Schools in Montgomery and Fairfax counties did away with class rankings long ago.

Power Stop#419-K1448Performance Brake Upgrade Kit
Power Stop has taken the time to assemble the most effective rotor-pad pairings for your braking application. Power Stop Complete Kits include cross-drilled and slotted brake rotors and Z16 Evolution Ceramic Brake Pads for both the front and rear. Cross-Drilled and Slotted Brake Rotors Z16 Evolution Ceramic Brake Pads
If you need a quick, simple, affordable solution to better braking, then don't just stop... Power Stop!
Power Stop Brake Rotors provide the advantages of both drilled holes for cooling & slots to expel gas and dust. Power Stop uses only the best blanks from the finest foundries (G3000 grade castings) and, except for the hub assemblies, these rotors are zinc-plated to resist rust. The rotor's drilled-slotted combination design is a very popular performance option for everyday street and track applications.
Engineered for noise-free braking, these ceramic brake pads use shims with two layers of rubber backing to reduce noise 6x more than plain steel shims. The brake pad's surface is thermal scorched for fast break-in, and a true ceramic formula keeps wheels cleaner. Power Stop's premium carbon-ceramic compound is made using OE positive mold technology to ensure uniform friction density throughout the brake pad; this helps control premature wear and noise. These pads also offer superior resistance to brake fade without the dust & noise of metallic brake pads.

When FERC opened wholesale power markets to competition a decade ago in Order No. 888, it codified a system for awarding grid access known as the pro forma Open-Access Transmission Tariff (OATT),...
Wellinghoff's War
FERC fights for the green-grid superhighway—even if Congress won't.
Lights on in a New World , such as greater fuel diversity, improved resource adequacy, lower and more stable rates, and access to new generation technologies.
ITC offers its own top-10 list of so-called unquantifiable benefits:
• Lower line losses;
• GHG emission reductions;
• Fewer out-of-market TLRs (transmission loading relief);
• Deferred need for new generation;
• Smaller requirements for planning reserves;
• Improved reliability and enhanced grid security;
• More competition and less market power;
• Higher capacity factors in wind-rich areas;
• Insurance against extreme contingencies; and
• Reduced need for foreign oil.
Such lists would overthrow the so-called beneficiary pays cost-allocation method, which is founded on traditional rate-making principles. But the Ohio PUC protests:
"There should be no non-quantified costs or benefits. Everyone should be charged in relation to the amount [of energy] they inject or withdraw.
"Failing this, any attempt to quantify is purely speculation."
Industry consensus has emerged for at least a trio of special concerns raised by FERC, including viability of merchant grid projects, the value of open season solicitations, and whether to maintain the right-of-first refusal (ROFR) enjoyed by utility transmission owners (TOs).
Merchant Transmission: Most industry comments state no extraordinary problems for merchant transmission projects, except perhaps in the West, where many utility TOs remain vertically integrated, so that merchant projects must compete against utility-sponsored rate-based projects that enjoy guaranteed cost recovery. The two TransCanada merchant projects, Chinook and Zephyr Transmission, say they have been participating—without being legally required to do so—in regional grid-planning processes, led by WECC and other groups, but suggest that "the full panoply of regional planning need not and should not be imposed on the merchant transmission provider."
Open Seasons: ITC advises FERC that an up-front open-season solicitation process to gauge financial interest from potential investors can work for certain projects, "particularly for DC projects where capacity is known [measurable] … contractual commitments for shares of that capacity can be made, similar to the natural gas pipeline model in which this concept arose."
As Xcel Energy noted in its comments, open-season solicitations have helped identify ahead of time which projects are viable, and send a signal to the developer about how much capacity really is needed. But Xcel echoes ITC's point regarding DC lines: "None of these situations to date have involved networked transmission facilities [AC lines] … embedded in an existing regional network."
ROFR: Perhaps surprisingly, most commentators take no offense from the right-of-first refusal that FERC guarantees to utility TOs to accept responsibility within their own service areas to build a project approved by planners, though FERC has inquired whether such rights could preclude third parties from constructing lower-cost or superior facilities.
The California ISO (CAISO) points out, for example, that the Southwest Power Pool tariff employs a narrowly tailored ROFR that allows it to avoid the problem by forcing the incumbent utility TO to upgrade its project to match a third-party proposal.
CAISO adds, however, that not all grid developer cost projections can be accepted on faith. "Project sponsors," the ISO writes, "could simply submit lowball

Alcatel-Lucent Shanghai Bell Co. Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as ASB) is the world's leading provider of communications solutions that comprise end-to-end product lines encompassing the fixed-line, mobile and dedicated communication network markets. With Bell Labs Research China and several leading international research centres at its disposal, ASB can fully leverage Alcatel-Lucent's available technical resources worldwide to develop unique technologies for serving both its Chinese clients and Alcatel-Lucent's global customers. Equipped with a world-class manufacturing platform as well as sales and service networks across China and in more than 50 countries, the company is the global flagship of Alcatel-Lucent that integrates research and development, an industrial supply chain and an information technology service centre.
The Growing Prevalence of Virus Attacks Poses a Threat to ASB's Networks
As ASB has branches in many cities across China, the workloads undertaken by the company's information security and network departments are extremely heavy: they not only have to reduce pressure on the company's network operations and maintenance resources by ensuring normal network operations, but also provide support for, among others, the increasingly complex business processes and remote collaboration. Personnel deployment in the company is highly streamlined, where the entire network department is staffed by less than ten people, and the IT security department is only staffed by a few people. At the same time, due to the vast network distributed across the various branches, the network department of ASB urgently requires a comprehensive monitoring network, to gain deeper insights into the different threats and to provide complete protection to critical business systems such as the data centre.
According to James Jiang, the Information Security Officer at ASB, "Given that security threats are getting increasingly complex and pervasive, the question of how to secure network infrastructure and information with limited resources is a pressing issue that we need to address."
ASB's Safety Requirements
As an information technology company, ASB was highly selective in its choice of security vendors. McAfee, with a good reputation in the industry, was noticed. Owing to the positive results achieved during the existing deployment of several McAfee products purchased by the company's information security department, McAfee's products emerged as the most preferred choice when the network department was deciding which intrusion prevention system (IPS) to use. It was only after having undergone rigorous assessments that the network department decided on McAfee's IPS security solution.
McAfee Deploys Network Security Platform for ASB
After carrying out a site survey to obtain an in-depth understanding of its security requirements and existing security products, McAfee's security experts deployed the McAfee Network Security Platform (NSP) for ASB. McAfee NSP, being the industry's most advanced and proven intrusion prevention system (IPS), delivers knowledge-driven security that is integrated, automated and actionable. It is the only product in its class that combines both network and system security infrastructures, for securing 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps corporate networks against threats and attacks.
Comprehensive Network Protection
Backed by McAfee's Global Threat Intelligence (GTI) system, this platform is capable of performing realtime malware detection (through File Reputation) as well as reputation and identity analysis (through Network Connection Reputation), to detect and protect against new threats. These dynamic updates ensure that the latest security protection is continuously made available. At the same time, with the availability of McAfee's excellent centralised management platform ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO), whenever NSP detects a problem (e.g. a host terminal becoming a Botnet host), you can use McAfee ePO to identify the affected system quickly and take the necessary, corresponding measures, as well as view host data, including detailed prevention-related information such as IPS and malware prevention events of the key hosts.
"Most importantly, McAfee's solution has helped us minimise the risk of business disruption."James Jiang
Information Security Officer, Alcatel-Lucent Shanghai Bell
Network-Class Platform with Multi-Gigabit Performance
McAfee NSP is the only IPS to hold the NSS Group's Multi-Gigabit IPS certification, offering up to 10 Gbps performance with the highest port density on the market.
ASB's deployment of McAfee NSP was based on its unique VLAN Bridge method, where the virtual serial ports of the IPS devices are deployed at the distribution layer, thereby resolving the security issues caused by internal threats such as worm propagation between access layer switches.
McAfee Solution Yielded Remarkable Results
Ensuring Network Safety
According to the feedbacks from ASB's IT department, McAfee NSP's effective monitoring of network traffic has helped to minimise the risk of business disruption. The company is now able to ensure network safety, apart from ensuring the proper high-speed operations of the various research and development centres and laboratories, and this has significantly reduced the risk of unauthorised devices infiltrating the security framework. James Jiang, the company's Information Security Officer, said frankly that, "most importantly, this solution has helped us minimise the risk of business disruption. McAfee NSP can help us effectively monitor all traffic passing through the network and intercept any harmful traffic."
In addition, McAfee NSP's premier prevention system has significantly reduced the number of false reports or alarms and simplified the process of managing Intrusion Prevention System signatures. With Network Security Platform, ASB's IT department has been able to ensure safe operations of the company's network almost without adding any workload to its staff or incurring additional operating and maintenance costs.
Effective Integration Leads to Better Control
Every single McAfee product is packed with impressive features. According to James Jiang, "Integration is currently the most strategic trend, and McAfee's products are capable of achieving seamless integration. In the area of network security, other than Network Security Platform, we have also deployed McAfee Vulnerability Manager for scanning vulnerabilities and McAfee Network Threat Behavior Analysis for analysing network behaviour. Furthermore, in the area of data protection, we have deployed McAfee Host Data Loss Prevention and McAfee Device Control." McAfee Vulnerability Manager is not merely a network-based scanner. It can integrate vulnerability assessment, asset data, prevention measures and other information and establish task priorities, to assist users in making quick and informed decisions. Through imposing control on USB devices, McAfee Device Control ensures that only authorised removable disks are allowed to use the host terminals, thereby ensuring compliance and reducing the risk of data loss.
James Jiang concluded: "The integrated solution from McAfee brings about efficiency benefits, which helped us cut back on the total cost of ownership significantly. Although the solution requires a certain amount of investment, but this is insignificant as compared to the cost of business disruption."
Simpifying Operations and Saving Operating and Maintenance Costs
ASB installed and deployed a large number of McAfee products. With regard to this, James Jiang pointed out that "these products provide our networks with comprehensive protection." According to him, ePO, McAfee's centralised management platform, is the reason why they could manage so many applications with so few staff. He concluded: "This control console allows us to manage all McAfee products in one central location. At the same time, it can implement every single change without affecting business operations or changing user environments, and this greatly simplifies the deployment of the new solution. If not for McAfee's centralised management platform, I am afraid our IT administrators would never be able to undertake such a heavy workload."
Increasing number of Internet hacking attacks
While ensuring network security, there should not be additional operating and maintenance workload for the IT and network departments

Located in the Shenandoah Mountains of Virginia, James Madison University is the home of some of the best looking, top of the line females. WIth a ratio of 70/30. Girls rule the school here. If you're a beautiful, sexy, well-educated, classy female then you go to JMU. Boys from all over flock here just to enjoy the site of the beautiful girls that they'll find walking around campus, or running down port republic late night, most likely dressed in polos or head to toe in some trendy outfit daddy just bought for her, and thats right after he purchased the beamer or Land Rover she wanted for becoming a sophmore. Parties at JMU are like no other...ONE WORD...BLOCK PARTIES. You know you're school knows how to party when you throw parties so big S.W.A.T teams have to come. The guys here couldn't be happier. Good lookin' guy for good lookin' girls. If you one day find yourself with a chic from JMU consider yourself lucky as a dog because every guy wants a MILF later down the road.
