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.

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.

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.

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.

Woman denies choking incidentMay 15,2014Woman denies
choking incident
A Rutland woman denied choking a relative who was trying to evict her over allegations of drug activity.
Andi Majka, 26, of Kinsley Avenue, pleaded innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to a felony charge of aggravated domestic assault.
She was released on the condition that she stay away from the alleged victim.
Police said the alleged victim received a letter Friday from neighbors accusing Majka of drug activity in the building. When confronted, Majka attacked the woman, trying to strangle her, and the two had to be pulled apart, police said.
Rutland City Police responded at about 4:20 p.m. Friday and brought Majka to the police station. Police said Majka denied the assault and claimed the other woman attacked her.
If convicted, Majka could face up to 15 years in jail.MORE IN This Just InBoard planning Full StoryNew offerings at the Rutland Free Library. Full StoryMan faces charge Full Story

Editorial: Immigration reform
February 1, 2013
Immigration reform is the hot potato in DC now, but this is an issue that can't just be kicked down the road.
Our KSBW Editorial Board believes this issue transcends the usual liberal/conservative jousting. The simplistic call to "just enforce the laws already on the books" is just poppycock. Immigration policy needs the attention of the here-and-now, not the hidebound analysis of our failure.
President Obama's latest pitch this week is not largely different than the framework advanced by President Bush six years ago. There has to be some way to clear up our current mess and move forward in a precise way, with specific steps for qualification, consequences, and much stricter border security.
The fact is, in our region, legal aliens and illegal immigrants are literally doing the heavy lifting, especially in our ag and hospitality sectors. It would not only be preposterous, but disastrous, to imagine their all being picked up and bused out of the country.
One last point: to those who say illegal immigrants are just soaking up benefits here and taking away jobs – that's bunk! None of the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants here are languishing on long-term government welfare or extended unemployment benefits because they can't qualify for either without documented citizenship and they are too busy working! They take the jobs that current American citizens just don't want! Sensible and orderly immigration reform deserves bipartisan support and is needed now.

The Temple Index – Real World vs the Range
Controversy and gun handling techniques go hand in hand.

Recently, the […]

Aaron from Sage Dynamics talks setting up and running a Threshold Evaluation Drill – basic techniques on how to work corners, clearing/searching rooms, how to enter hallways, etc.
Secondary Guns
The subject of secondary, or "back-up", guns has been debated to death over the years, and I'd rather not beat that dead horse. But, I'm asked about it on a regular basis and I think I might be able to throw in a few thoughts that are often left out of the debate.
Stop Fooling Yourself
Many things are important to the development of solid firearms skills: safety, knowledge of the fundamentals, firearm confidence, professional training and dedicated practice to name a few. These focuses don't occur in a vacuum; they work together and help us be a better shooter. It's a never ending process of self-assessment that is challenging, fun […]
Low Light Techniques for Everyday Carry

Moving Threats Drill
Aaron Cowan from Sage Dynamics explains and demonstrates a versatile drill that helps add more realism and challenge to practice on ranges that allow free movement.
Close Quarters Shooting, Reality in Context
Every instructor has a particular skillset that they pay special attention to; be it the mechanical fundamentals, precision accuracy at distance or more dynamic skills such as speed shooting. This doesn't mean that other important skills are ignored, far from it. Rather (at least in my case) it makes the focus more evident in that […]

This really puzzles me. I want to have pic.jpg be static in the background (not move when scrolling) and that it won't stretch.
It works on every browser (ie,chrome,safari,ff) except chrome on android (it even works on android original browser)
background-color: transparent !important;
background-image: url(<%= asset_path "pic.jpg" %>);
background-position: center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
chrome for android renders it as pic.jpg being halfway up in the screen, not on the entire page and doesn't stay static on scroll..
I can't reproduce it on jsfiddle, I also try to debug it with my android phone and nothing seems to help.
Isn't this the way to create the background image? could something else interrupt it?
any ideas?

Following on from his post about his initial diagnosis, John shares his treatment story with us.
I was 59 years old when I was diagnosed with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) and it took me eight months to get a diagnosis. Following this, events moved along apace.
I was initially given a date of the June 3rd 2013 for my operation but this was delayed by one week. Here in France, work is assessed on a priority basis with patients normally given state the week of the operation and not the date until the Friday before. At this stage they decided to delay and give me a new date a week later.
On the following Friday, I was given a date of entry of June 9th 2013. On entry that day they asked me to shave and scrub myself. I prepared myself that night by shaving from just above my biceps down to the groin.
I was wheeled into the preparation theatre at 8.00am on June 10th 2013 and the anaesthesiologist tried to give me an epidural – it seems this was not successful but I do not know since I passed out.
That afternoon, after an operation lasting eight hours, I was transferred to Intensive Care. I had two drains, one on the left and right for my abdominal cavity.
The next day it was explained to me that I had had my appendix removed, part of the liver removed, all of the mucin. All the organs in the cavity were scrapped in order to 'clean' them. In addition, I had also had part of my intestine removed but the good news was the cancer was not advanced as initial thought and I did not have a colostomy. Thus no need for a second operation.
I was in intensive care for five days. I had a multitude of different medicines fed by a drip and these were progressively removed during that time.
The first night I asked to go to the toilet but was told it was okay since I had a catheter inserted in my penis. Strange sensation!!!
The second day I was asked to get out of bed to move around and this was possible for 15 minutes. I tried to eat something but I just felt nauseous all the time.
The third day it was found I had fluid on my lung and another drain was inserted – this was the most painful experience during that first week.
Again I was not feeling hungry and ate hardly anything. Because of the third drain I was not able to get out of bed. The fourth and fifth days were similar – I did not get out of bed and hardly ate anything.
During the time in intensive care, I had an X-ray every day and a bed-bath every day. My stitches were inspected and treated every day. On the fifth day they were left open to allow air to get to them. In all I had 44 metal staples on the outside and I was told about 80 stitches on the inside.
I was lucky in that during those five days I was in intensive care I did not have to evacuate my bowels thus allow the healing process to continue unheeded. The downside is that I lost over 14 pounds during that time.
Because of the constant pain I found it difficult to sleep and was on self-medication (morphine drip) during this time. The dreams I had were weird, it was almost like an out-of-body experience.
At the end of the fifth day I was transferred to the ward which was a private room. The X-rays continued every day and I was allowed to stay on morphine for another 3 days at which time the drip was removed. I was questioned every day as to the level of pain and feeling and my medication was adjusted accordingly.
I was able to evacuate my bowels for the first time on the 6th day. I could not face the hospital food and my wife would bring in for me two meals a day (I did eat the bread and jam in the morning). Even then I could not face a full meal because of the nausea.
By the end of the ninth day, the anaesthesiologist suggested I have a tube inserted so that I could be fed with vitamins to supplement my diet since I was losing weight. I suppose a little like 'foie gras' and force feeding. This was horrendous since my throat was already swollen from the operation and I was heaving all of the time. After two hours, I started to vomit and it was decided to remove the tube.
By the end of the tenth day the first drip was removed – the one from my lung – this was an enormous relief because this constantly give me pain. By the end of eleventh day the second drip was removed. By the morning of the thirteenth day the third drip was removed and I was discharged the same day!

Salena's brother Colin had Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP). Sadly, he passed away ten years ago on 22nd November 2013 having been diagnosed on July 1st of that year. He was aged just 33 years. Salena and her family decided to carry out activities to remember Colin's life ten years after he passed. Searching the internet, Salena was so pleased to discover that there is a charity supporting people affected by Pseudomyxoma and to see the words "Pseudomyxoma" and "Survivor" together.
As part of her training for the Great Manchester Run in May, which she is running with a friend, Salena took part in the 5k Great Winter Run. She tells us
The 5k Great Winter Run was a difficult one with an impressive route at Edinburgh's Holyrood Park. It was a great atmosphere and I felt quite emotional, running with Colin's name and picture on my bib for the first time. I managed it in 27:13. I'd liked to have done it in 25 minutes but am letting myself off as I'd just turned 42 on Friday and have only been running since last summer! My friend Caroline was there to cheer me on and was apparently in tears as I set off. My friends were incredibly fond of my brother too and have been very supportive of my recent efforts to raise funds and awareness in his memory.
- Salena
Salena also ran the Trailtroopers 10k at Finlaystone Country Park and Glasgow Uni 5 mile Road Races in November. She is abseiling 140 feet at Old Trafford for the Christie Hospital on March 23rd and undertaking a Race for Life 10k at Hopetoun House, South Queensferry on 4th May, in preparation for the Great Manchester Run. Phew!
To show your support for Salena and in memory of Colin, please visit Salena's JustGiving page.

As you probably know, February 28th was Rare Disease Day (think we mentioned it enough times?). Today's guest blogger, Mel, had the brilliant idea of using Rare Disease Day as an opportunity to raise some awareness of pseudomxyoma peritonei in her workplace.
I decided to use Rare Disease Day as a way of raising awareness of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) and raising funds for Pseudomyxoma Survivor at the same time. I ordered some leaflets and a poster from the web site and used them to create a display in our staff canteen area.
I created my own poster and "came out" to my fellow work colleagues about having PMP and how rare it is. The reaction I received from them was overwhelming (which even resulted in me giving them a small talk about it in their lunch breaks!). Of course, no one had heard of it (apart from one of my colleagues who has a cousin that had his MOAS¹ in October, such a small world!!) and they were surprised that only two hospitals in the UK specialise in treatment.
I had a lot of sympathetic "We didn't know you were ill" comments to which I gave them my normal reply of "Well, I'm not". I left them some leaflets to take away and I hope that by bringing it to their attention that they will spread the word and get people the early diagnosis they need. Oh and one other thing… I had over £90 of donations for raising awareness that day which brings my JustGiving page total to over £500 in just two weeks!!
- Mel
We would like to say a huge "Thank You" to Mel and she has certainly given us some ideas about what we could do for the next Rare Disease Day! You can support Mel by visiting her JustGiving page.
¹MOAS - 'Mother of all Surgeries'. This is a nickname for the big cytoreductive surgery - full peritonectomy and HIPEC. It was thought up by the wife of an appendix cancer patient some years ago via her blog.

We are incredibly excited to announce that we have our very first patron of the charity, following his close involvement with Pseudomyxoma Survivor, Mr Sean Hepburn Ferrer.
Sean has supported us during our early days and through our development and progression into the strong organisation we have grown to become today, Pseudomyxoma Peritonei survivors are particularly close to his heart as his mother Audrey Hepburn sadly passed away from PMP some 20 years ago. Following his recent successful invitation to become EURORDIS Ambassador of the year 2014 to represent all rare diseases, we felt that to honour Sean with the title of patron seemed like the most natural progression to further our awareness raising campaign.
We very much look forward to working together, and want to take this opportunity to thank Sean for all of his support thus far.
Pictured are our CEO Dawn Green and Mr Sean H Ferrerat the recent EURORDIS Gala Dinner in Belgium

A group blog from members of the VB team
This is Part 1 of the "VB Universal Windows App" series:
Recently in April 2014, Microsoft announced Universal Windows Apps. I thought I'd take an old Silverlight paddle game and turn it into a VB Universal Windows App. Here's how the finished game looks, on devices and in the stores:
A "universal Windows app" is a great end-user experience. It means the user of your app can buy the app on Phone, say, and it counts as purchased on Store as well. The user can make an in-app purchase on one device and it counts as purchased on the other. The user's settings can roam from one device to another. Customers expect that the Windows and Windows Phone versions of the app will have roughly equivalent functionality, at least as far as that makes sense, but they also expect a "look and feel" on each device that is tailored to that device.
Under the hood, you the developer still have to submit two different app-packages to the two stores.
But what you'll do is re-use as much code as possible between the two apps – re-use your code, your XAML, your assets. The developer "happy place" is when most of your work is done in common, when a bugfix or feature for one device also works on the other device without effort or testing. That's what we've made considerably easier for VB, C#, C++ and JS in recent updates to Visual Studio.
To get started:
(Roslyn isn't strictly necessary, but it includes a few general-purpose enhancements that help universal app authoring.)
We'll start by registering our app, and our in-app purchase, at the two dev centers
Windows Dev Center
Windows Phone Dev Center
The important thing is to register the app under the same name in both dev centers. This is how the stores know that it's a universal app. And they'll show little "universal" badges in the two store listings.
Pro Tip: In the Windows Store, space in search-results is limited, and if too much space is taken up with the words "Free trial" or "Discount" then there won't be room to show the badge. After all, the word "free" is better at enticing customers than the universal badge!
In concrete terms, "universal Windows app" means that if an app in the Windows store is registered with the same name as an app in the Windows Phone store, then...
We're going to submit two appx-packages to the two stores. But we'll set up our solution in Visual Studio so as to re-use as much as possible between the two apps, thanks to newly enhanced Portable Class Libraries.
We're using Portable Class Libraries (PCLs) for the common code. This builds on an important enhancement PCLs that came in VS2013 Update2. Prior to this, PCLs could only contain code and resources, and could only make calls to .NET APIs.
But now, if a PCL only targets Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1, then it can also include XAML and Assets, and can also make calls to WinRT APIs. That's good, because we're going to re-use XAML, and re-use assets, and re-use code that calls WinRT APIs.
Pro tip: don't call your projects "App1.Windows" and "App1.Phone" with a dot in them. This will create your projects with a default namespace called "App1.Windows" and "App1.Phone", so if you tried to invoke an API called Windows.Application.Current then it'd look inside your "Windows" namespace not the real one!
Pro tip: the question of how to re-use code effectively is a deep one, with no "one-size-fits-all" solution. In VS2013 Update2 and with Roslyn we've improved two solutions for VB and C#, "PCLs" and "LinkedFiles". This blog series uses both. We also introduced a new solution that's only in C# for the time being, "SharedProjects", which are an easier way to manage a group of LinkedFiles within VisualStudio. SharedProjects will make their way into VB in the next release of Visual Studio.
In steps 5 and 6, you might see the dialog below. Assuming you have Roslyn installed, you can ignore it. The Roslyn preview fixes the underlying issue, but hasn't yet got rid of the dialog. (Without Roslyn, doing GoToDef from an app to the PCL will take you to ObjectBrowser not to the source code of your PCL).
In today's blog post "Part 1" we've set the groundwork by registering the app in both dev centers, and creating the basic structure in Solution Explorer. Stay tuned for tomorrow's post "Part 2", where we share XAML, Assets and Code between the two versions of the app.
-- Lucian
I am having trouble understanding the term "universal".
Are you saying that having multiple applications -- with some shared code -- with varying layout code for different devices -- constitutes "universal"?
We must have had different teachers in English class.
@LS I totally get your point.
Parts 2,3,4 of the series will actually be sharing ALL of the code we write (including layout code and xaml), so that's a good start.
The term "universal" is already used elsewhere by Microsoft. I didn't want to change terminology just for the VB blog because that would be even more confusing!
Hello Lucian ,
Please keep up the good work of supporting us VB developers in all new technologies and Visual studio features , I still am a bit mad about the fact that Microsoft seem to have broken the co evolution promise , but I am happy to see I can actually port my WP apps to a Universal apps concept right now .
My employer is currently in need for a new app and I was already planning to create it then in C# ( I dislike curly brace syntax as I am a VB :-) or maybe a B as I was twelve years old when I fell in love with Basic )
Prior to universal app, you could create a portable library which was the common union of the type of application you were trying to create. It was limited. With universal apps you can share more since they are at source level 95% convergence of code can be shared. The 5% I have found is related to devices and sensors. I am sure there are other areas but I am focused on the sensors.i am much happier with universal apps. One down side, Lucian, not all of the sensors appear to be async ready.
Back to universal apps, you can create a new project that out of the box will run both on Windows 8.1 and windows phone 8.1. Or use the online app studio to block out your app then export the source to visual studio and that has both versions.
Sorry about any typing mistake on the train using my Lumia 1520
Very useful, excellent tutorial.
Thanks :)

Ornament love
Loving all of these - perfect for the Modern Cottage tree! This fabric snowflake design is the perfect simple/organic/rustic combo. I also love this set in the shop, which would be great if we get a mini tree for the little guy's room.....This tree at Terrain is exactly what I am picturing - I'm sure we can find something locally and we have more vintage buckets than we know what to do with :) Plus, it would be fun to plant it together after the holiday is over.
I also think these handmade walnut ornaments are so pretty. I love the wood and the subtle metallic paint. Very understated modern.
And H&M never disappoints with great style and even better prices, like this set for $4.95.

Early holiday picks
But on to the holiday goodies! These are the things that have caught my eye so far, and I wanted to share, since all of them would fit into a Modern Cotttage quite nicely. Above is a 9-piece "Tree Farm" from Terrain. They are a mere 4" tall and I love the idea of a grouping of uniform trees as well as the chartreuse-y color. They also had me straight away just with the packaging.
This little cloud ornament is impossibly sweet - so simple and pure. I love the stamped letters. Ordered one of these for the little guy. It's just that great.
artwork from Etsy has a great vintage feel. It would be pretty and modern in an oversized frame with a thick white mat.
lights - love the detail. They really feel magical, and kind of modern/vintage at the same time.
I realize we have a little way to go before Christmas, but this year I'm starting early. Even husband is on board, asking over the weekend "Should we take down the bats and put up Christmas lights?" I am a lucky girl :)

Welcome, little green friend
plant a couple months ago, it was never the same. Dirt spilled all over the carpet and it seems our poor plant was traumatized, even after we tried to put it all back together. It had actually lasted quite a long time, and loved its sunny spot in the upstairs hallway. Really a poor parental decision I suppose to have left it precariously on a low bench in our bedroom but we'd had to move it out of the way for the painters. In any event, we found a lovely new plant - a variety I've never seen before - which has very cool tones of light and medium green, and delicate yet modern shaped leaves (fancy plant name: polypodium aureum). Now, we just have to plant him!
Oh, and you might notice the white subway tile and carrara - YES we finally gave that temporary chalkboard backsplash and black hole of a counter top (it was Uba Tuba granite if you are familiar) the boot! We hope to have some before and afters posted soon :)

Paper store
And I am always looking for classic card sets useful for any occasion. These ones have stripes and pin dots.
Then there are those times you just want to write your lists down, on paper. At least for list-lovers like me. Crossing things off is much more satisfying.
This one is sized nicely for your bag or car and comes complete with a stretchy band to keep things tidy. Any of these would make a thoughtful gift when paired with my favorite pens from Poppin.
I can't help but include one of the more playful designs. These are great to have on hand for kids' birthday parties. Like I said: adorable.

Fun finds
frames are the best. We got the unusual 5x10 size and use it vertically. We loved it so much we ordered a 5x7 as well, and both will live on our new fireplace shelves in the great room (hoping to have before and afters up soon, just waiting on the surround).
And from Urban (can't forget they often have really striking finds) this awesome denim flag. It may go in our little guy's future 'Big Boy' room - we are not 100% certain - but it is really versatile enough to go in many different places.
Just wanted to share!

So maybe, as Doc Brown would say, in considering the subject of gay rights and Republicans, I'm not thinking four-dimensionally. My instinct tells me that a presidential candidate who supports gay rights cannot make it through the gauntlet laid down by social conservatives in the GOP primary. Here's why I might be wrong:
1. So if you're Sen. Rob Portman, and you're likely to be in the VP nominee mix in 2016, your support for gay rights separates you from the other potential ticketmates. If you're Marco Rubio, picking Portman would help in Chicago and potentially bring in some credibility with younger voters. By 2016, given the trajectory of the issue, it will probably break 55 to 45 against the GOP or worse.
2. Thought bubble: Marco Rubio came out on a charm offensive on immigration a few months ago and has seen no deterioration in his poll numbers. If he had instead come out with a view on gay marriage that government shouldn't be involved at all and marriages were up to churches, would the results be any different? I recall the immigration backlash against Sen. John McCain and it's true that the passions on that issue were and are no less strong than on gay marriage within the GOP base.

Far East Movement - Dirty Bass
Artist: Far East Movement
Featuring: Tyga
Producer: The Stereotypes
Album: Dirty Bass
Avg Rating: 2.4 ( 23 votes )
Far East Movement may have broken through with Like a G6, one of the more rock out till you blackout party anthems in recent memory, but for their new single the group wanted to show that the can also address more weight topics: namely, Obama's inability to push through true climate change legislation. I'm sorry, I'm just joking. The crew's new single, Dirty Bass, is about dancing, drinking and making booties dip like a lowrider (not necessarily in that order). Frequent production providers The Stereotypes give Dirty Bass its, well, dirty bass, dropping off a pounding, hypnotically rolling beat perfect for Far East members Kev Nish, Prohgress and Jay Splif's coolly delivered rhymes. And if you're going to be getting dirty in the club, who better to invite along for a guest feature than Mr. Stripper Anthem himself, the Mayor of Rack City, Tyga? That was a rhetorical question, there's no one better. Those in the mood for even good-time music from the L.A. crew are in luck. The video for Dirty Bass is slated to drop soon, followed by Dirty Bass the album, slated to hit dance floors, U.S. store shelves and digital retailers on June 5.
