In my last post, I questioned whether the story being posted in sections by Oxadrenals is genuine, or merely an improvisation based on this blog.
Whether or not it is an improvisation, the latest addition describes a fascinating method used by Saul to shift his identity.
Here's the central passage:
"Through certain contacts judiciously nourished, [Saul] learned of Lee Velis, age fifty-five, a man of independent means and solitary habits, long out of communication with relatives and lacking friends or business associates. While visiting Jakarta, the unfortunate Mr. Velis had stumbled in untimely fashion over a crack in the sidewalk and received into his skull a bullet intended to pass ten yards further into the skull of quite another man. Neither of the warring criminal syndicates involved had any quarrel with the United States, nor did they wish to provoke one. They were therefore quite grateful when Saul offered to take the accidentally assassinated man off their hands.
"He did so by becoming Velis."
A very effective method indeed. Compared to the method of identity shifting I called "raising ghost children on the social security farm," this technique is bulletproof. – Stephen
Here's a link to this section this quote was taken from, titled Changing Identities.
Here's a link to the entire story, titled The Hafeem Saul.

The candidates on this list are the intended Gold Directors from the Gold Member companies who are running for election as Gold Director Selectors.
After 20+ years' experience in ICT, I embraced OpenStack in my home country, Australia, and became passionate about it recognising it's immense potential the world over. I soon recognised however, that the Australian OpenStack community needed a real boost. So in 2011 I founded the Australian OpenStack User Group (AOSUG). The response has been fantastic and the group continues to grow across the country. While much of my time has been spent nurturing the OpenStack community in Australia, I have been actively supporting the growth of the Indian OpenStack community spending time in India promoting and speaking about OpenStack, and I actively take part in meetups online around the world whenever possible.
I am deeply humble for the opportunity to represent the community builders, operators and end users of OpenStack on the BoD – everyone and especially the people who DON'T write software but still have lots to offer. I plan on continuing to work to promote OpenStack in every possible way, so that it becomes ubiquitous and full-featured, while remaining, most importantly, truly open.
My twitter is @tristangoode and I also quite like beer, I'm Australian!

Boris is the co-founder and CMO at Mirantis. Operationally responsible for Mirantis' marketing strategy, Boris acts as a spokesperson for the company and is Mirantis' public face in the OpenStack community. Boris' influence was instrumental in Mirantis' current focus on OpenStack.
In his role, Boris works to ensure that Mirantis' marketing efforts don't just promote the Mirantis brand, but also help further global awareness of the OpenStack community. To that effect, Mirantis is a regular sponsor of OpenStack summits, promotes OpenStack at unaffiliated trade shows such as Cloud Connect and OSCON, and helps run regional communities in the Bay Area, Russia, and Ukraine.
Boris continuously helps evangelize the OpenStack community by regularly blogging about it (mirantis.com/blog), talking on behalf of the community at various conferences, and engaging in business development activities to attract new member companies and contributors.
During 15 years of his professional career, Boris held several executive positions with technology companies he helped establish. He was a founder and CEO of Selectosa Systems, an IT consulting company which was subsequently acquired in 2006; and is a co-founder and angel investor at AGroup.lv, now a venture-backed enterprise software company headquartered in Europe.
The first public release of OpenStack source code was on my blog, in May of 2010. But I spent the two years prior to that working on it, as the Chief Architect and Technical Lead of a project called NASA Nebula.
I'm currently on both the OpenStack Foundation board, and the Cloud Foundry Community Advisory Board. I co-chair the OpenStack interoperability committee, and chair the Transparency Working Group. I also serve on the finance committee, the compensation committee, and the program committees of every OpenStack summit to date.
I was the official "Gold Member" representative to the drafting committee, responsible for development of the OpenStack foundation bylaws. And in the early days, I was one of the four original members of the OpenStack Project Oversight Committee.
Essentially, I've spent a majority of my time mucking about in OpenStack governance since the days we called this thing "Pinet".
When I'm not drinking coffee and eating donuts, I do a lot of public speaking and evangelism of OpenStack, particularly around its use in Enterprise private cloud settings. (I believe I've given over 28 speeches in the past year).
My "day job" is as CTO for Piston Cloud Computing, the makers of the first commercial OpenStack software product.
Simon is CEO of DreamHost, and Co-founder and Chair of Akanda, Inc. Simon was also Co-founder and Chair of Inktank Storage, Inc., acquired by Red Hat in April 2014.

DreamHost has been a major contributor to the OpenStack software and community since 2011. DreamHost has launched DreamCompute, a public cloud computing service powered by OpenStack, Ceph and Akanda.
His prescient views on the profound disruption caused by cloud computing have made Randy Bias one of the industry's most influential voices. He is an evangelist who was among the first to articulate the generational transition of IT from mainframe to enterprise computing and then to cloud in addition to popularizing the cloud server "pets vs. cattle" meme.
Randy was an early and vocal supporter of the OpenStack project and Cloudscaling was part the initial OpenStack launch in summer of 2010. He led the teams that deployed the first public OpenStack storage cloud (Swift) outside of Rackspace, and the first public OpenStack compute cloud (Nova). He is a founding Board Member of the OpenStack Foundation. He continues to be a vocal advocate of OpenStack, through his company, his writing and his speaking engagements.
His voice is frequently heard in media outlets such as GigaOm, InformationWeek, The Economist, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, ReadWriteWeb, O'Reilly Radar, Light Reading, and others, in addition to the Cloudscaling blog. He is a regular keynote speaker and panelist at events from the OpenStack Summit to VMworld, Structure, eComm, CloudConnect, Interop, CloudBeat, CloudExpo, The Web Summit, and Gluecon.
Vice President and CTO of Cloud Computing at Cisco Systems where I am responsible for shaping Cisco's strategy and products in cloud computing. I also run the OpenStack team at Cisco contributing to Neutron, Nova, Horizon, and other projects and currently sit on the Foundation Board as a Gold representative. I frequently talk about cloud computing, software defined networking, and OpenStack at major conferences. Of course, I'd rather be playing music or writing code.
Formerly, I was VP/CTO Cloud Computing at Sun Microsystems, where I led development of SunCloud. Earlier at Sun I was responsible for all of Sun's Internet-facing web sites and services, and was an early member of the JavaSoft executive team. At other points in my career, at Salesforce.com I led the development of the AppExchange, and was CTO at Radar Networks, a semantic web startup. In the 1980's I was a director of R&D at Thinking Machines, where I developed algorithms for AI and machine vision for the massively parallel Connection Machine. I have a B.S. from Cornell University and Ph.D. in computer science from Polytechnic Institute of New York.

During that time, I was a core developer on OpenStack Neutron and also made significant contributions to Nova, Docs, and Devstack.
During this time, I've spent countless hours not only developing and troubleshooting OpenStack deployments (both in-house and at customers) but also educating customers about how they can deploy OpenStack to help solve their cloud challenges.
I also served on the OpenStack Technical Committee during this time, and have a lot of experience working closely with the folks who "keep the lights on" from a technical + infrastructure perspective.
Outside of work, I enjoy trail running, and brewing/drinking beer.

Cheney family at odds over gay marriage
Mary Cheney, the gay daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, has again taken to Facebook to criticize her sister, Liz Cheney, who is running for the Senate from Wyoming, over same-sex marriage.
The New York Times
Mary Cheney, a daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, and her wife, Heather Poe, sharply criticized Sunday a comment by Liz Cheney, a candidate for the U.s. Senate in Wyoming, that she and her sister disagree on the issue of same-sex marriage.
"Liz — this isn't just an issue on which we disagree, you're just wrong — and on the wrong side of history," Mary Cheney, who is gay, wrote on her Facebook page.
Poe's comments were sharper and more personal.
"Liz has been a guest in our home, has spent time and shared holidays with our children, and when Mary and I got married in 2012 — she didn't hesitate to tell us how happy she was for us," Poe wrote on her own Facebook page. "To have her say she doesn't support our right to marry is offensive to say the least."
Appearing on "Fox News Sunday," Liz Cheney, who is challenging the incumbent, Sen. Mike Enzi, in next year's primary, said she and her younger sister had parted ways on whether gays and lesbians should have the right to marry.
"This is just an area where we disagree," Liz Cheney said.
Her sister's salvo on Facebook is the second time this fall the younger Cheney has criticized her sister's position on same-sex marriage. The comment suggests that both Mary Cheney and Poe are going to continue speaking out on the issue during the primary.
Such comments could present political difficulties to Liz Cheney, who is attempting to unseat Enzi by running to his right. Dick Cheney has already said he supports same-sex marriage, but the matter is plainly causing intense family friction.
The back-and-forth comes as Liz Cheney ramps up her campaign and Dick Cheney is back in the news promoting a book he wrote with his elder daughter about his heart transplant. The former vice president is also playing a role in Liz Cheney's campaign; he is joining her Wednesday in Denver for a fundraiser.
In her post, Poe argued that the current patchwork of same-sex marriage laws is unfair to gay and lesbian couples. And she subtly raised the issue of Liz Cheney's move last year from suburban Washington to Wyoming, a sensitive issue in the state and one Liz Cheney sought to address by touting her family's state roots in her first television ad last week.
"I can't help but wonder how Liz would feel if as she moved from state to state, she discovered that her family was protected in one but not the other," wrote Poe, who called Liz Cheney "my sister-in-law," adding: "Yes, Liz, in 15 states and the District of Columbia you are my sister-in-law.
Mary Cheney praised Poe's words — "couldn't have said it better myself," she wrote.

Posted: Saturday, July 12th, 2014 -- 7:25 a.m.
OAK CREEK, Wis. (AP) -- Members of Wisconsin's Sikh community are planning another 6-kilometer (3.7-mile) run in memory of the six victims gunned down in their Milwaukee-area temple two years ago.
The Chardhi Kala 6K will be held Saturday, Aug. 2, in the Milwaukee suburb of Oak Creek. The Punjabi name refers to a state of constant optimism, which reflects an acceptance of God's will.
The $15 registration fee will help support a scholarship fund for students who have dedicated themselves to community service.
The run commemorates the shooting on Aug. 5, 2012, when a white supremacist walked into the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin and opened fire.
He killed several priests and worshipers and injured five other people before killing himself.

This was the first year for this Festival and there were a great many problems especially technical ones. The fact that it was in a convention center and not a movie theater contributed to the poor quality of some of the films. I thought the panel discussions were interesting. The Festival needed signage in the parking area because it's a large complex with 3 buildings and there was no indication which building housed the Festival. I walked around for 30 minutes until I found it. All in all a good effort and I hope it continues in future years with these problems worked out.

If you're looking for some Halloween costume inspiration then you could do worse than check out Daisy Lowe's latest Instagram post. The model attended a fancy dress party where she channeled animated sex symbol Jessica Rabbit in a shiny red dress and matching wig. Daisy certainly has the curves for the part, but she had a little help in the hair department from hairdresser Lyndell Mansfield. The stylist shared an image of Lowe wearing the cartoon ensemble along with the caption, 'Coloured cut and set this wig to make Daisy Lowe into Jessica Rabbit #OTT #party and she looked incredible!' We wonder if Daisy uttered the character's immortal words, 'I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way'.
Baby clothes always get a good reaction on Instagram and this isn't the first time that Beyonce has given us a glimpse at her daughter Blue Ivy's wardrobe, which features princess dresses, pink high heels and crowns. This time Bey revealed a photo of Blue's likkle shoes alongside a pair of Jay-Z's mansized footwear, but while the rapper rocks shiny loafers the young fashionista has some rather fetching lace-up brogues. A bit of competition for North West.
And finally, speaking of Kim Kardashian, the reality TV star got plenty of love from her family yesterday as she celebrated her 33rd birthday and became in engaged to partner Kanye West. Her sister Khloe gushed, 'Happy birthday KiKi!!!!!! I love you beyond comprehension!!!! You truly are one of my best friends. To me you are an angel in disguise. Always there for me in any way! My wish is that I give you as much in life as you have given me!' Cute!

SCOTUS Delays Decision In 'Baby Veronica' Native American Custody Case
Charleston, S.C. (CBS CHARLOTTE) – The U.S. Supreme Court delayed a ruling in the Baby Veronica case that looks to define a "parent" under a law that protects Native American children.
The high court is likely to make a ruling tomorrow the hotly contested custody battle over 3-year-old Veronica, a girl with American Indian blood whom Matt and Melanie Capobianco — a James Island couple — tried to adopt at birth. The case centers on the Indian Child Welfare Act, a federal law aimed at placing American Indian children in foster or adoptive families who share their heritage.
The law arose in 1978 after advocates pointed out that a striking number of American Indian children were being placed outside their cultures, further diluting Native American societies.
Veronica's biological father Dusten Brown, a Cherokee Indian, is currently protected under the law. But the Post and Courier reports that the American Indian makeup of Veronica's blood was said to be only 3/256th, and she also shares Hispanic heritage with her mother, attorneys for the Capobiancos have said. They said that ICWA shouldn't give rights to a father who has otherwise relinquished them under state laws.
"It's typical that some of the most contentious and divided decisions will end up coming down to the wire at the end of June it happens almost every term," Lori Alvino McGill, a Washington D.C. attorney representing Veronica's biological mother, told News 4 Charleston.
"We get all wrapped up every time there is a decision day. There's a lot of build up and let down when it turns out that the case hasn't been issued yet," said Alvino McGill.
Alvino McGill said she can only make assumptions as to what the waiting is like for the Capobianos.
"It's heart wrenching, I'm sure for them as it is for Christy, because you know she feels so strongly that Veronica belongs with them," said Alvino McGill.
The Supreme Court's expected decision will determine whether Brown did enough as an unwed father, beyond biology to be able to veto the Capobianco's adoption of Baby Veronica through ICWA.

Some women are just powerhouses of energy. Not satisfied being merely THE celebrity stylist in LA, a reality TV star, mother and fashion designer for her self-named fashion line, Rachel Zoe's world-domination continues.
Photo By George Chinsee for WWD
The flares-wearing woman behind the phrase "I Die" has just announced that she will be adding two new lines within her clothing line. First up - and can we just say, we are SO not surprised - is jewellery. This is the woman that has dressed the Nicole Richie's of this world in chunky bangles as a figure fixing super slimming measure. The woman herself is always laden with various cocktails rings, and has looked to the Art Deco era for design inspiration. As she told WWD "I'm a hand-talker, so that's what this (ring) is about". With tassels, Swarovski crystals, jade and onyx, we applaud Zoe's very timely nod to the 1920's. American retail giant's Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman have already negotiated to exclusively stock the jewellery.
Zoe has also worked on a cold weather range that we can expect next winter. Though let's be honest it would come in pretty darn handy round about now. Cashmere lined scarves and hoods, faux fur hats and wrist warmers, as well as green quilted leather gloves make up the collection, and it is divine. Speaking to WWD she explained her need to expand the Rachel Zoe line: "I go to style my show and I'm like, "I want hats. I want gloves. I want all these things. Okay, wait, I'm a designer now, so let's do it."

How Can Mobile Learning Increase Student Motivation?
The mobile learning movement is beginning to gain momentum. Teaching in schools, universities, colleges (and even learning from home) has the potential to be more engaging with the integration of m-learning. And as a result, mobile learning is becoming exceedingly popular. It was reported by Ambiant insight that the US market for mobile learning products had generated a staggering $958.7 million in 2010. Not only this, but they predicted the compound annual growth rate to be 13.7% over the next five years, proving that mobile learning will continue to develop as more and more people begin to recognise its advantages.
A number of reports have suggested that mobile learning can in fact help students to be more motivated and therefore improve their overall performance. M-learning introduces a whole new type of learning, different from the typical tasks such as making notes, reading from a textbook, etc. This variety within a learning course is sure to increase levels of interest among learners.
This hypothesis was tested in 2005 by a university in Ohio. Research was conducted into student perceptions of mobile learning to find that it was having a positive effect. Students felt that mobile learning made the work seem easier and 'more fun' which eventually resulted in an increase in quality of work produced. However some people still have reservations about how effective m-learning could be.
There is a stigma around using phones in the classroom. Educators and parents alike have a negative assumption, reinforced by school policy, that mobile devices are a distraction to learning as opposed to an aid. However, this view is not universal. Diana Laurillard from the Institute of Education believes that motivation is actually a key aspect of m-learning. She went on to say 'It is clear that learners working with m-learning enjoy the process' which she put down to aspects such as students control over their own goals. Not only this, but M-learning is very accessible. Students are able to complete homework tasks wherever they are. If students know that they can complete their homework without being glued to a desk, they would be more likely to do so.
A study by Tsinghua University in Beijing also indicated an improved enthusiasm in students using mobile technology, but for different reasons. As teachers posted content onto forums and sent emails to the students, there was a closer student-teacher relationship which was seen as the main reason behind the increase in motivation. However, many cynics see mobile learning as being far more entertainment- based rather than educational – and these perceptions will need to be dispelled before mobile learning is able to reach every classroom.
Once more people realise the benefit of mobile learning technology the trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) will move from only being applicable to the work place, to also being relevant to classrooms. This is already happening. Earlier this month the BBC reported of a school in Newport which lifted a ban on mobiles as a way of 'embracing technology for learning'. The school reported that it was 'working well' and that it was time that schools caught up with the technological revolution.
It is time for other educational institutions to follow suit and ensure that they are keeping up with the latest technology to provide educational content that is relevant and reflective of our modern society. In doing so, student motivation could rapidly increase which would inevitably also help their overall performance.

4 hurt in near-head-on Mandarin crash
Updated On: Jun 03 2014 02:39:21 PM EDT
At least four people were injured in a near-head-on crash in Mandarin on Tuesday afternoon, according to Jacksonville Fire-Rescue.
The crash happened on Old St. Augustine at Kori Road at about 1:30 p.m.
A pickup truck was headed north on Old St. Augustine, waiting to turn left on Kori road and was hit almost head-on by an SUV, which went airborne and landed on its roof.
Three people from the SUV were transported to the hospital, as well as the driver of the pickup, who had to be cut out of the vehicle. A passenger in the pickup was not injured.
The names of those involved and the extent of the injuries was not available.

Why do universities think students want to hear celebrities make commencement speeches? And do the stars get paid?
—Denise, Boston
If you're asking how much Oprah got for that commencement chat she just gave at Stanford, the answer is $5,000—about enough, I would imagine, to pay for half a tassel in her cream-and-gold-brocade sky palace.
Harvard, which recently recruited J.K. Rowling to speak, says it didn't pay her anything—and not because, as you might suspect, she made Ron marry Hermione. (I personally would have paid Rowling 50 bucks just to see Draco tap that.) A spokesman tells me the university never pays its commencement speakers.
Other schools do, though. And just how much may surprise you, so keep reading...
According to several reports, star speakers charge up to $50,000 for just a short talk. And even that sometimes isn't enough. Hence honorary degrees, and even use of a private jet, if all else fails to satisfy the celebrity.
Here's how it works.
In most cases, the university makes at least a nominal effort to work with the student body, or at least its president, to agree on which celebrity should don the rayon robe and crack mock-self-deprecating jokes. Then the president extends a formal invitation, often cosigned by a rep from the student body. In the case of Stanford, the university likes speakers who have some connection to the school. Oprah's goddaughter Kirby Bumpus was in this year's graduating class.
As for why these celebrities keep getting recruited, blame the students. Last year's Stanford commencement featured Dana Gioia, an accomplished poet who has won several awards. Students promptly complained Gioia wasn't famous enough.
"Unlike last year's highly criticized speaker choice," a student reporter wrote triumphantly in a February edition of the Stanford Daily, "this year's commencement speaker will not be suffering from a lack of star power."

Oh, and be my fan on Facebook, 'kay?

Welcome! At Math Doctor, we are committed to student success. Our tutors teach strategies and give students the tools they need to master the concepts. We help students attain a firm understanding of the foundational theory behind the procedures that they are learning. When students understand the reason for following certain steps in a process, then they are more likely to understand the concept and retain the information for future use. Most students will notice positive results in just a few sessions.
Tutoring sessions are held in the Math Doctor learning center. Our center is set up to accommodate individual tutoring, as well as group tutoring sessions. The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxed. We are flexible to fit the special needs of a student, upon request. Small tables are available for the one-on-one attention from qualified personal tutors. Conference tables are available for group sessions. There is a waiting area for parents who choose to wait.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you suffer from math anxiety, would you like help preparing for standardized testing in mathematics, or do you have a math instructor who is just not able to get some really important concepts across to you in class? Having known Dr. Cheryl Avila, the founder of MathDoctor, for many years, I have seen her help a multitude of students including myself with mathematics using engaging and innovative approaches. Her grasp of both the underlying concepts of mathematics and her experience in the classroom make her uniquely qualified to help others. If you just need help understanding basic algebraic equations, want a better understanding of Probability and Statistics, are curious about Game Theory applications, or may need a more in depth understanding of Calculus for advanced studies then MathDoctor should be your first choice!
What is the cost of tutoring at Math Doctor?
We have a few different options depending on your tutoring needs. Generally, the price runs from $25 – $50 per hour.
Can you work around my child's activities?
Yes. We are at the learning center at 5070 Minton Rd NW, Palm Bay on Monday – Thursday 3-8pm and Saturday 9am – 4pm, but on Fridays it is by appointment.
Do you just tutor math?
No. Although our specialty is mathematics, we can tutor other subjects as well. We have subject area experts that we can contact if you have tutoring needs other than math.
Do you guarantee my child will get an A in math?
No. We can not guarantee a specific letter grade as a result of our tutoring service. What we can guarantee is that our highly trained tutors will do their best to get to know your student and explain the concepts and procedures in a manner that makes the mathematics relevant and relatable. We believe that with this increased understanding, the letter grade in their math class will improve.
What if my child's learning style is not compatible with the tutor's teaching style?
Finding a tutor can be like finding a medical doctor in the sense that sometimes it is just not a good fit. We understand that. Before we start tutoring, we would like to take some time to sit down and talk with the individual that would be tutored. This allows both the tutor and tutoree the opportunity to see if they are going to be able to work together.

Bernard Bossov
Updated: August 14, 2013 6:09AM
One military historian called it "the century's nastiest little war." On June 25, 1950, seven divisions of elite North Korean communist troops invaded the fledgling democracy of South Korea with the intention of conquering their southern neighbor and ally of the United States in three weeks.
Three years and three weeks later — when the United Nations, China and North Korea signed an armistice ending the Korean War — U.S. casualties amounted to 33,629 killed, 103,284 wounded and 7,140 taken prisoner. Millions of civilians had perished.
American soldiers were dubbed "the walking wounded" because they were patched up in the field and sent back into battle — a savage existence where ever-changing front lines, hand-to-hand combat, merciless artillery barrages, amputations from frostbite and death from dysentery were commonplace.
Sixty years after the armistice signing on July 27, 1953, the walking wounded remains an apt description for Bernard Bossov, 83, of Wilmette, and other American veterans who continue to battle physical and emotional trauma caused by the war. "I can handle the pain and the nightmares," Bossov says, "but worse is that people might forget how well we fought and what we did."
Bossov, like so many other Korean War veterans, feels his sacrifice has been overlooked.
After winning World War II most Americans in the 1950s were busy raising families and enjoying the good life after years of economic depression, war and sacrifice. Television news was in its infancy. As a result, the Korean War raged on largely unnoticed — except by the thousands of American soldiers who endured captivity, torture, amputations from frostbite, merciless artillery barrages, dysentery and massive onslaughts of Chinese communist troops.
Bossov was a forward observer in the 37th Field Artillery Battalion. During ferocious battles such as Kunu-ri, Chipyong-ni, the May Massacre and Bloody Ridge he received two severe concussions — one when his truck was blown off a road and plunged 200 feet down a mountain and another from an exploding shell — as well as a bullet wound and parasites from eating potatoes scavenged while missing in action. Six times he fought to the death in hand-to-hand combat.
When Bossov returned home in October of 1951 — virtually deaf from artillery barrages, numb in both legs from frostbite, racked by tortuous neck and back pain that would eventually compress his frame more than seven excruciating inches — people could not comprehend what he had been through.
"Civilians were told it was a police action and thought, how bad could it be?" he said.
He went on to have four major surgeries to repair broken discs in his spine. Screws and bolts keep him together, and he wears a neck brace.
Because of veterans like Bossov, South Korea was saved from a ghastly fate. A 1954 U.S. Senate report states that war crimes committed by the North Korean Army "constituted one of the most heinous and barbaric epochs in recorded history."
Today, Bossov attends therapy sessions at the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Center in North Chicago for veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. An accomplished pianist, he also plays for veterans in treatment. His hands, however, are severely bruised from thrashing in bed caused by nightmares of war and atrocities.
Constant pain has not dampened his joie de vivre. He is happy to tell his story about "how well we fought and what we did." It is as though, once again, he has been ordered to hold his position. "And I will," he says with the same resolve that earned him a drawer full of medals.
So, when you see a veteran wearing a Korean War cap, say "thank you." As Bossov says, "A heartfelt thank you means more than all the medals in the world."
William A. Baltz is an independent writer who frequently writes about veterans.

Covering Unified Communications - From Our Indsutry Experts
[February 01, 2013]
MegaPath Secures NEC SIP Trunking Interoperability Certification
Feb 01, 2013 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- NEC Corp. of America announced that MegaPath has earned NEC's Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Trunking Interoperability certification with NEC's Univerge SV8100 and SL1100 communication platforms.
According to a release, the certifications help to ensure NEC's platforms will be able to work seamlessly with MegaPath's SIP Trunking voice services.
SIP trunking has been shown to reduce monthly recurring operating costs over traditional digital telephony services. NEC said its Univerge SV8100 Communications Server and the SL1100 communications system are an ideal IP telephony solution for SMBs that wish to compete and grow their businesses over time. Both offer a server-based solution that supports voice, video and wireless communications and can be deployed in both branch and remote offices.
"By combining the Univerge SV8100 or SL1100 communications servers and MegaPath's SIP Trunking service, companies can build a strong base for unified communications while simultaneously managing the costs of those communications services," said Ram Menghani, vice president of product management and development for NEC Corp. of America.
"As SIP trunking continues to grow in popularity, it will be important for companies to select solutions that can seamlessly integrate with their existing voice infrastructure," said John Scarborough, vice president of products and services, MegaPath. "MegaPath works with our partners, like NEC, to ensure we deliver reliable, high-quality solutions that meet our customers' voice needs without exhausting their budgets."

Building A Business Case For Unified Communications
The hype surrounding any emerging technology often shrouds the private sector with mixed feelings, as decision-makers try to decipher whether new offerings will enhance operations, hinder productivity or introduce some bizarre mixture of the two.
Instant Cashflow Improvement and Rapid ROI with Unified Communications
The up-and-down economy of the past several years has highlighted the need to operate more effi ciently and cut costs wherever possible. In most situations, these two notions would seem contradictory, but a number of emerging technologies - cloud computing, virtualization and the bring-your-own-device movement among them - are helping companies accomplish these goals.
The Top Four Pitfalls of Unified Communications
Today's enterprise needs to be agile if decision-makers wish to remain competitive and relevant in the eyes of consumers. As more companies and customers around the world begin leveraging innovative devices like smartphones, tablets and next-generation laptops, the need to deploy unified communications grows alongside it. Neglecting to implement the technology may result in dire consequences that could spell the end of an organization.
