Cyprus Offers Mediation Between Lebanon, Israel
By BASSEM MROUE
BEIRUT (AP) â¿¿ Cyprus has offered to mediate between Lebanon and Israel over a maritime border dispute that is delaying some oil and gas exploration in the Mediterranean, a Cypriot official said Monday.
Both Lebanon and Israel claim a small maritime area of 850 square kilometers. The dispute has held up ratification of the 2007 Lebanese-Cypriot agreement, defining Exclusive Economic Zones among the three countries. It has also led to bitter exchanges and threats between Israel and Lebanon.
Neither immediately commented on the mediation offer from Cyprus.Lebanon and Israel remain technically in a state of war and have fought several battles over the past four decades. "We are already involved in this sort of thing to help as much as we can," Solon Kassinis, director of the Department of Energy in Cyprus, told The Associated Press about mediating between Israel and Lebanon. He spoke in Beirut while taking part in the Lebanon International Oil and Gas Summit. Kassinis said it would it be unfortunate if the negotiations ended abruptly between Lebanon and Israel. Instead, he said, Lebanon should take whatever Israel is offering as a first step, and then continue negotiating. Kassinis said the agreement which Cyprus and Lebanon signed 2007 "should be concluded and should be sent to the parliament to be ratified as we did in Cyprus." Lebanon says that a bilateral agreement signed in 2010 between Cyprus and Israel and ratified a year later conflicts with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Lebanon demands that it be amended in accordance with international laws that govern the demarcation of maritime borders among states. Israel insists that its undersea oil development projects are all in its territorial waters. Kassinis said many people are talking about future generations, but they should address that when they have surplus funds available.

You're confusing me of your lack of proper english but I'll try my best.
1. You are wrong. It's a proven human trait that when there is misunderstanding, jealousy and immaturity, hate will sometimes follow. Those people are what we call "narrow minded"
2. Once again you're wrong. Some people like to camp, some people like to just troll others with C4, others focus on repairing vehicles, and then you have the pilots. You apparently haven't played the game enough to see those that are afraid to capture flags. When a team is losing some players are more likely to just stay in one spot and not move to grab a flag, in fact I've seen this happen too much. They AREN'T being aggressive. It's only a handful that actually go out and try to get other flags in a situation such as that. If I have 2 or 3 other guys who are doing the same thing, GOOD ON THEM! They are a being a honeybadger, they're being aggressive, and not willing to just accept defeat. We aren't a closed group of people, just LIKED MINDED players, so if anyone wants to join us because they play like we do that's GREAT! And why do you really care so much about how we view ourselves?!? You're putting a lot of effort into trying to "shame" us on our personal opinions and play style. We're not cheating, we're not causing issues on the forums, we're not going around the forums being arrogant a-holes to people, so why do you care so much? This whole idea stemmed from someone complaining about being a lone wolf and having to do everything himself. Obviously there is a teamwork issue, and if we can encourage teamwork and good playing styles (being aggressive despite the odds) it'll only make the game that much more fun. And here you are trying to trash a group of people that are encouraging that!
Oh and explain please what makes us "posers". Who are we trying to act like?
Cytat:please, i am really not going to look for posts i have seen weeks ago when i dont remember nor names nor thread title.....but i am sure i have seen several similar statements
Please, I am really not going to take stock in anything you have to say when you make a statement like this. Here's an analogy for what you sound like: "Oh I saw a UFO once, I did! But.. it was seen weeks ago and I don't remember what it looked like or where I was, but I am sure I saw it!"
Plainly put- We aren't better than anyone, but we will stay aggressive through the whole game, despite if we're losing drastically. While others sit back and just accept defeat, we don't. We made a little group out of that mindset. Deal with it.

You continuously made comments about how we think we're better than others, etc etc etc.
I'm asking you to give me proof of these claims, because obviously it was so detrimental on your emotional well being that you remember these things from weeks ago. Surely you can find something. But you've failed to do that. You've given yourself zero credibility, no one had to prove you wrong, you did that to yourself.

We're not saying we're the best or anything like that, nor saying that others are worse. We're just a bunch of players having fun together. Can't we make a group and name it? What if I created a medic squad and named it the CareBears, would you still have a problem with that? Just because we wield machine guns while CareBears don't?

Hi All!
My dad is in the hospital preparing for a stem cell transplant with intensive chemo, and he'll be there over Valentine's Day. I want to keep him happy and cheerful, so my friend Kristine and I decorated his hospital room and I made cupcakes for the staff and other patients and their families.
Valentine's Day has my favorite color, PINK!, in the color scheme, so I had to take advantage of it. Red velvet cupcakes with a rich, smooth cream cheese frosting and vanilla cupcakes with maraschino cherry buttercream in a pretty shade of pink. I purchased some cupcake liners that came with heart-shaped picks at the dollar store, I wish I had picked up one more. They made them extra special!
I got the red velvet and cream cheese frosting websites from Pinterest of course (link below). The red velvet cake batter was the perfect color, and it lightened as it cooked, so it came out lighter than I would have liked. I would suggest adding more food coloring than you think you'll need or adding a few drops of black.
The cream cheese frosting was the best I'd ever had, so amazingly decadent! I'm really glad I didn't have any graham crackers around because then I probably would have eaten most of it. Luckily it made way too much so I had enough to put away for later!
I didn't want to use a cake mix for the vanilla cake, so I found one with good reviews on Pinterest (link below). It used buttermilk, which was handy because the red velvet did too, so I was able to use up the whole container and not have just a quarter cup of something left. That bugs the crap out of me, since I try to waste as little as possible.
I used the same maraschino buttercream from my previous post on gluten free chocolate muffins. It's firm, pretty, and tastes so good. One good trick I've learned over the years of having roommates is that most handheld mixers have interchangeable beaters. You can swap them from machine to machine. I probably have 4 sets of beaters in different shapes from yard sales and roommates past. It stops you from having to wash them before you can mix something else! I'm lazy and I hate doing dishes.
It took a lot of effort and time, but it was worth it to make my dad happy! If you try any of these recipes, let me know how you made them!

Briggs & Stratton announced lower second quarter net income of $3 million versus $3.2 million a year ago. Sales for the outdoor appliance and engine manufacturer also declined.
The company reported second quarter fiscal 2010 consolidated net sales of $393.0 million and consolidated net income of $3.0 million or $0.06 per diluted share. The second quarter of fiscal 2009 had consolidated net sales of $477.5 million and consolidated net income of $3.2 million or $0.06 per diluted share. Consolidated net sales decreased $84.5 million between years, with both Power Products and Engine segments experiencing lower sales, primarily the result of lower unit volumes. Consolidated net income was fairly consistent between years despite the sales decline. This result reflects better margins caused by lower manufacturing costs and lower engineering, selling, general, and administrative costs.
For the first 6 months of fiscal 2010, the company had consolidated net sales of $717.7 million and a consolidated net loss of $5.7 million or $0.12 per diluted share. For the same period a year ago, consolidated net sales were $935.6 million and consolidated net income was $1.2 million or $0.02 per diluted share. The decrease in the first 6 months' consolidated net sales of $217.9 million was attributable to both reporting segments experiencing lower sales, primarily the result of lower unit volumes.
For Power Products, fiscal 2010 second-quarter net sales were $156.6 million, a $35.4 million decrease from the $192.0 million in the same period a year ago. The lower net sales were primarily the result of a decrease in shipments of portable generators. Replenishment demand that occurred because of major weather events last year was not required in the current year due to a lack of weather events. In general, all lawn and garden product volumes were less than those in the same period a year ago, except for stronger snow thrower shipments. All levels of the lawn and garden distribution channel appear to be managing to lower inventory levels ahead of the spring of 2010 retail season.
Net sales of Power Products for the first 6 months of fiscal 2010 were $320.2 million, a $127.4 million decrease over the same period a year ago. The sales decline was primarily the result of a decrease in sales of portable generators due to no hurricanes making landfall in the United States in the first half of fiscal 2010. Other than a small increase in pressure washer shipments, the other product offerings in this reporting segment had volume declines between years.
The loss from Power Products operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $4.5 million, an improvement of $4.1 million over the loss for the same period a year ago. The improvement in the loss from operations for the quarter was the result of lower manufacturing costs, primarily related to lower commodity costs and planned cost saving initiatives. These improvements were partially offset by lower sales, lower production volumes and $1.7 million of expenses associated with the previously announced closing of the Jefferson, Wisconsin manufacturing facility.
The loss from Power Products operations for the first 6 months of fiscal 2010 was $0.9 million, a $5.1 million improvement over the loss from operations for the same period a year ago. The improvement in the loss from operations between years resulted from the same factors as described for the quarter and was also offset year to date by an unfavorable mix of lawn and garden product shipments. Through the first 6 months of fiscal 2010, costs related to the closure of the Jefferson, Wisconsin facility were $3.1 million.
The company continues to project that fiscal 2010 net income will be in the range of $40 to $50 million or $0.80 to $1.01 per diluted share. Consolidated net sales are projected to be approximately 6% lower between years primarily due to the absence of hurricane-related sales of portable generators, selected price reductions to reflect projected lower commodity costs, and lower engine shipments to Europe for lawn and garden applications.
Production levels for substantially all products are planned to be lower in fiscal 2010 to decrease the company's investment in working capital. Operating income margins are projected to be in the range of 4.0% to 5.0%, and interest expense and other income are forecasted at $27 million and $5 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the full year is projected to be in a range of 31% to 34%.

Hamishwillee - Minor subedit
Hi Alessandro
Nice job. I've given it a minor subedit, but couldn't understand what you were saying here "Data values must be extracted from the ..." in order to fix it.
One thing I've always wondered about proximity sensors is how they work, and hence how closely they can detect things, and if there is an orientation effect. Ie will it detect me if I put phone backwards near my ear? I think a little more information on what the sensor can detect would be useful, because unlike accelerometer and compass, this is not well known.
hamishwillee (talk) 07:32, 7 August 2013 (EEST)
Jappit - Thank you for the edits
I've reworded the section about data values, as it was a bit cryptic. Please let me know if something is still unclear.As for proximity sensor, I'll probably add a section with a brief introduction to technical details of the proximity sensor, as location, maximum distance and so on, as it can surely help.
jappit (talk) 16:21, 9 August 2013 (EEST)
Hamishwillee - BetterThanks very much. I tidied that section up a bit more and I think it's good. Looking forward to seeing an update on the technical details of the sensor!
hamishwillee (talk) 04:18, 12 August 2013 (EEST)

Hamishwillee - Anything which has JSR256The article is generally valuable for using sensors (ie Sensor API JSR256), and specifically about the proximity sensor. This should be quite a lot of devices - expert device search is easiest way to search: https://developer.nokia.com/search/?view=ds

'New Frugality' Starts to Show Cracks
BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- Americans have become more realistic about retirement, with almost half of those eligible for Social Security now planning to work longer than they had expected.
But despite talk of retirement-age frugality, a new survey by Charles Schwab (SCHW) found that 95% of respondents say they won't be willing to spend less in retirement after all.
People "are coming to the realization they want to live a good lifestyle in retirement," even if it means they have to save more and work longer, says Stacy Hammond, director of Real Life Retirement Services at Charles Schwab. "Retirement is going to last you 30-plus years, and the idea of tightening your belt throughout retirement became a much less appealing option."
The findings come from a quarterly survey, the most recent of which was taken in November. It measured the attitudes of Older Boomers (born between 1945 and 1954), Younger Boomers (1955-1964), Generation X (1965-1974) and Generation Y (born after 1975).Forty percent of Older Boomers and Generation Y, who are separated by 25 years or longer, plan to postpone their retirement date. Almost half (47%) of workers age 65 and older are prepared to work during retirement. That compares with 10% for Generation X, 11% for Generation Y and 20% of Baby Boomers (Older Boomers and Younger Boomers combined). The change in mindset may have less to do with necessity than a desire to enjoy life in retirement. Many families were forced to live with less, scrimping on unnecessary expenditures to maintain their budget. After more than a year of fear and frugality, many realized that isn't how they want to live in their golden years. Watching friends and family downgrade their retirement expectations has made many people pledge not to let that happen to them.

Nadia Diuk Interviewed on Recent Events in Ukraine
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
On Wednesday, February 26th, NED Vice President Nadia Diuk appeared on PBS NewsHour to discuss the topic, "Will Russia Intervene in Ukraine?"
"The people generally want to have justice. They want to see that the corrupt politicians that were leading this country for the last three years are somehow brought to justice and made to account for the crimes that they have committed, the killings that have taken place, and also for a lot of the money that they have stolen, which, this weekend, we saw these rather surreal pictures of what this money was spent on."
Watch the full segment and read the transcript.
Earlier this week, Diuk was interviewed by RTE Radio 1 Drivetime on recent events in Ukraine. The podcast is available online.

Rescuing populations from the threat of statelessness in northern Benin
Just a few weeks after joining the protection unit for stateless persons of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) regional office, I was given the opportunity to participate in my first field mission and to reach out to people threatened by statelessness in northern Benin, at the border with Niger. The aim of this mission was to understand the causes of the situation faced by these people, analyze its impact on their daily lives, and envisage lasting solutions, together with local authorities.

What it means to be a UN Volunteer
The decision to serve as a UN Volunteer, at home or abroad, is based on a commitment to the United Nations and to the UN's contribution to peace, development and human rights in support of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
As a UN Volunteer you have the extraordinary opportunity to create beneficial change and have a positive impact on people's lives. Even if your UNV assignment is fairly short, it can have a long-term impact and achieve a ripple effect that extends far beyond the immediate beneficiaries of your efforts.
Your role as a UN Volunteer is that of both facilitator and catalyst. UNV encourages you to be creative and entrepreneurial in finding ways to develop capacity and to promote and foster volunteerism for peace and development - both within and beyond the formal framework of your assignment.
Ultimately, if development is to be effective and sustainable, the people affected by it must take ownership of its processes and drive them forward. Indeed, the MDGs can only be reached if millions of people around the world voluntarily mobilize to achieve them. Your actions as a UN Volunteer can also inspire others to volunteer and to believe that they too can make a contribution towards peace and development.
UN Volunteers come from around 160 countries and many more cultural backgrounds, and thanks to this wide variety of perspectives they bring a range of experiences, expectations and approaches. This diversity gives their work a particular dynamism.
UN Volunteers are thus part of a global, cumulative effort that integrates volunteerism as a core contribution to peace and development: and the concept of volunteerism for peace and development is at the core of UNV's mission.

Kay sympathises with Welford Road axe
ESPN Staff
October 8, 2012
The King Power Stadium will host matches in the 2015 World Cup © Getty Images
Former Leicester lock Ben Kay has regretfully accepted that the decision to axe Welford Road as a potential venue for 2015 Rugby World Cup may have been the correct call.
The Rugby World Cup winner and former Tigers stalwart has sympathy for those fans angered by organisers' preference for the neighbouring King Power Stadium, home of Leicester City FC, but claims the venue ticks all the boxes when it comes to hosting a match in rugby's showpiece tournament.
Welford Road's recently expanded capacity of 24,000 and the rich heritage of the club was not enough to convince England Rugby 2015, the organisers of the next global gathering, that English rugby's largest club rugby ground warranted selection.
The major stumbling block was the size of the playing area with the constraints of the pitch failing to meet the strict criteria while ER2015 also hinted at concerns regarding the development of the ground.
Tigers chairman Peter Tom has hit out at the decision and was quick to highlight the Tigers' proud international history and the work they have done up to now in increasing Welford Road's capacity.
But Kay, who spent his entire 11-year professional career with the Tigers, claims that while he understands the Tigers' grievances, the 2015 showpiece should showcase some of the best stadia the country has to offer.
"I can see why Leicester Tigers fans would be disappointed to not having World Cup rugby in the stadium but there are positives and negatives to everything," Kay told ESPN. "Leicester have done a lot over the past few years in bringing international matches to Welford Road and along with the redevelopment of the Cat Stand they would've been hopeful of hosting a match.
"But when organising a tournament, you want it played in the best arenas in the country - the likes of Old Trafford and the Millennium Stadium are on the list. Welford Road is certainly pushing the boundaries but across the road is a bigger and more modern stadium. The King Power Stadium is an impressive venue and Leicester will still have rugby matches in the city.
"I can see both sides of the argument and hopefully the Leicester public will go out and support the World Cup. You can see that the organisers behind 2015 are looking to emulate the spirit of the Olympics by using the best available stadia at their disposal."

"Really happy with this thank you note. The brief message "thank you for celebrating with us" was just enough, and we had plenty of room to hand write a message. Very happy!"
"Very cute design! Used this for my daughter's christening thank yous. I was very happy with the quality, I wish there were more color options but the colors worked."
"Again, Tiny Prints did a great job. I love these cards! Can't wait to use them and be able to send them out to my family & friends. I didn't realize there were different options of colors with the baby elephant and writing. It doesn't matter all that much, but I am not finding out the gender of the baby so I would have probably went with the Violet instead of the Begonia. Thanks Again!!"
"This card was more beautiful in person. The colors are bright and cheery. I'm using them as thank you cards for presents for our new baby and have received many compliments."
"This are absolutely adorable!!! Smaller than I thought, make sure to read carefully the size description, but overall an adorable choice."

Our Mediocre Multichannel Mission
Posted by Martin Gill on March 28, 2011
- 488 Recommendations
- 6 comments
In celebration of the fact that my Forrester Boss, Patti Freeman Evans, was over this week in London, we thought we'd go on a multichannel retail shopping tour of London to see just how well some major UK retailers are integrating their on- and offline channels and enticing their shoppers into engaging with them online.
The answer is sadly, not very well at all.
Hitting Oxford Street on a sunny Friday at lunch time, we performed an eyes-on tour of a rough cross-section of some of the better-known UK brands. We went looking for exciting new uses of technology disrupting the in-store environment. Examples of beautifully integrated online/offline/mobile channels placing the customer at the heart of the brand experience. Innovative applications of technology that seamlessly blended the digital and physical brands, enticing shoppers into engaging with these premier retailers both now, and later when they got home. Or even, how excitingly, via their mobile phones.
So while a hungry band of devotees of the fruit-flavored tech-god gathered outside the Apple Store, not realizing that just round the corner they could get their paws on a new iPad 2, sans queue, we started our shopping trip.
Flippancy aside, we were looking specifically for how well multichannel retailers are integrating physical and digital channels.
The results were (depressing) surprising :
Nike = awesome. Greeted by a massive video wall as we entered, we found a store that centered on the customer experience. Up on the top floor we found demos of the Nike iPad fitness app. Best of all was a fully integrated, in-store custom sneaker designer service powered by a slick bank of Macs and crewed by extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful sales staff. Design your sneakers in-store, save them to your "Locker," work on them later at home, and then order them. The only black mark was that Patti couldn't design her new Air Force 1's in London and pick them up in NYC, but overall, a brilliantly integrated retail experience.
John Lewis = an acceptable benchmark. After 2 minutes in the store, we found a very user-friendly digital price checker. John Lewis promises to price-match other retailers, so my iPhone bar code scanner didn't help me get a bargain there. There was a click-and-collect service with a well-placed, dedicated collection counter and plenty of clear signage encouraging you to check out the website, including one massive sign that dwarfed Patti. They even have a plush, inviting Internet-ordering lounge where staff can help you order today for home delivery or for in-store collection tomorrow. You were left in no doubt as to your shopping options, and they made it easy enough to reach out to the Internet while you were in store.
Carphone Warehouse = not quite Best Buy. Though it is clearly not bringing best practices over from the mothership yet, it did have some in-store video displays and some references to its website. We had high expectations of a tech retailer with such an interesting heritage in its US parent for innovation like QR codes, engagement with its online experience, and some level of integration. Sadly not.
French Connection = missed opportunity. On the plus side, its brand is very consistently represented across store and the Web. But considering it has a beautifully executed website rich in slickly produced video, the only noticeable link to the website is in 8-point font at the bottom of its in-store style magazine. Hmmmm.
United Colors of Benetton = epic fail. Despite an enticing logo on the back of its style magazine encouraging us to hold it in front of our webcam to unlock cool new content, one of the sales girls didn't know what a webcam was and the other was a bit too busy stock-checking (on Friday lunch time!) to help us much.
All in all, a bit surprising. Considering that 72% of online adults in the UK buy products on the Internet, UK retailers seem a little shy of reminding their consumers that they can continue to shop from the comfort of their own homes.
Is this really the best we can do ?
I've challenged Patti to do a similar eyes-on floor walk of some New York stores. Let's see if they are making a better show of things.
Hi Martin, Love the use of
Hi Martin,
Love the use of pictures here -- would like to see more analysts integrate the use of pictures in their blog posts. I think it adds a dimension to your points that could not be made with words.
Best Buy
Best Buy will have to also impress customers across touchpoints in the UK with an agile commerce approach if they intend to win vs. key competitors Comet and Dixons: http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2011/mar/28/best-buy-new-store-openings
Visual vs Physcial
Brilliant article to point out how business missing out the opportunity to compete in 2-D dimensions.
However, on-line shopping still lacking of the human touch of product and interaction with people. When technology can mimic and invigorate our senory orifices, I would say it is a ture "virutal" shopping experience.
You are completely right. Personally I think that's where the multichannel retailers have a huge opportunity - but that requires a focus on customer service from store people passionate about the brands and products a retailer sells, who also understand that on-line exists as well. Our experience last week was that only Nike and John Lewis had infomred their staff in store to speak to customers about on-line.
I'm in
Okay - I accept the challenge. Will tour tomorrow and post the results from NYC's 5th Avenue.
Interestingly, I got home from this trip a little disappointed not to see more digital integration in the stores we visited only to pick up the New York Times Sunday Travel Magazine to find nearly every ad had a QR code offering:
- more pictures
- more content
- more offers
- more more...
which was exactly what I was hoping, nay expecting to get in-store. So travel advertisers are taking up the charge. Let's see if NYC retailers are doing the same.
brilliant insights
liked the piece and laughed at the "epic fail" result for benetton... aww...

I know I'm pretty much preaching to the choir, but I feel we need to keep issues like these out in the public, to help pass ordinances to keep these dogs out of our neighborhoods. This happened near Rochester, NY
Pit Bulls Maul 70-Year Old in Chili - 13WHAM.com
Chili, N.Y.) - A morning walk took a frightening and life-threatening turn for a Chili man Friday.
He was attacked and seriously injured by three pit bulls. The three are now locked up at Chili Animal Control.
"Never seen anything like it, it was like a zombie movie," said witness Scott Quenell.
The dogs mauled Thomas Tziatzou, 70, on Chili Avenue.
Scott Quennell could barely believe what he saw. "The bag moved, what I thought was a bag…and it was a guy. I saw the guy's head. I went up there and the dogs mauled this guy."
Quennell and several other witnesses called 911 and tried scaring off the dogs with their cars.
"He had so many wounds!" Quennell said. "I gave him some paper towels to put on his neck."
Sam Sanchez owns the dogs. He and his four kids are devastated by what happened.
"How did they get out? I have no idea," Sanchez said. "All I know is my front door is open. The kids are screaming. I go outside. The next thing I know, a gentleman is suffering."
Sanchez said he's never known his pets to be dangerous, yet that's how sheriff's deputies describe them.
Sanchez said, "They're telling me they might put my dogs down. I understand. If my dogs were to attack somebody, in my presence, I'd put them down myself." But that's for the Town of Chili to decide.
"What can I do right now and say? If I could swap it right now, if God could grant me the privilege to swap souls, life, whatever, I'd do it in a heartbeat," Sanchez said.
Thomas Tziatzou is listed in satisfactory condition at Strong Memorial Hospital.
It's up to sheriff deputies, the district attorney's office and the humane society to decide if there will be criminal charges.

As per recent reports, it has been declared that health authorities of Hong Kong have raised concerns following a case of avian flu reported over weekend. It has been discovered that a mainland child has been confirmed positive for H5N1 virus.
It has been exclaimed that this case is the first of such kind to be registered after a gap of 18 months. Further, apart from raising alerts, health authorities have asked out 80 people to undergo a test for the virus. These people are those who came in contact with the two-year old boy from nearby southern Chinese city of Guangzhou.
Previous reports suggest that the boy visited a poultry farm, from where he might have contracted the infection. Later on, he developed fever and runny nose, subjecting to which he was taken to private clinic in Hong Kong for treatment.
Latest reports have confirmed that the boy is admitted in a Hong Kong hospital and is termed to be serious. Hong Kong officials said, "The Chinese boy was in serious condition after testing positive for the deadly H5N1 strain of avian influenza and the city had raised the bird flu alert level to serious".
However, Hong Kong health authorities have even told people to remain calm and not to panic.

Anyone got any good info on blocking TOR?
given its potential uses for photographic and video content as well substance supply i would think it would probably be prudent to block.
Your only real option is to use DNS blocking from a decent TOR blacklist. Much of the idea of TOR is to make it difficult to block in the first place so it's not particularly an easy thing to do. Those blacklists are certainly not a 100% solution for that very reason, they hosts will obviously change constantly.
You could block .exe using group policy.
Not to sure what this is, but could you block the ports on your firewall?
Or is it using standard ports?
I guess it's one of those things which would be covered under your AUP for BYOD, and if anyone got caught using it then appropriate actions taken against them.
(Sorry, I was assuming you wanted to block people from accessing resources on TOR clients - if you want to stop people using TOR clients from in school then yes, proper .exe policies...)

RealMoney Extra: Be Cautious With Builders
This column was published earlier this week on RealMoney . Click here for a free trial and stay up-to-date on the latest analysis and trends.
I am going to make a bold forecast: Existing-home sales are likely to increase each and every month from now through August.
The kicker is, these monthly sales gains are absolutely, utterly meaningless. It is not, as some people have mistakenly written, signs of an improving housing sector. Rather, it merely reflects the regular seasonality of home sales.
Hunting Through the DataI spend a lot of my day digging through data. I try to tease out what I can learn about a given economic sector by dissecting the official data releases, be they governmental or private sector in origin. I believe it's important to understand both what the reality is, as well as what most traders and fund managers believe. Sometimes, the search is a bust, and the data is exactly what it appears to be. Often, I learn some detail that provides context to the news, allowing me to better understand what is going on economically. On occasion, we learn things about the true state of an aspect of the economy that is quite different than the popular headline. And just sometimes, these "seek and destroy" missions yield a very positive result that is completely at odds with the public perception. The monthly existing-home sales was just such an economic indicator. In mid-March, the headlines were quite optimistic: We learned from the National Association of Realtors that "Sales of existing homes increased in February and remain within a fairly stable range." And, we also learned that low prices have attracted buyers back into the market. The Wall Street Journal even had a front-page article, stating, "New data suggested that

CHICAGO — School librarians and educators have specific questions about copyright law but often find themselves without guidance on the subject in school environments. To address their copyright concerns, the American Library Association (ALA) will host Complete Copyright for K–12 Librarians and Educators, an interactive webinar created for educators and school librarians from 4 p.m. - 5 p.m.
CHICAGO — Speakers from a range of settings and library backgrounds have been confirmed to participate in the ALA's Digital Literacy Task Force program "Creating a Culture of Learning: How Librarians Keep up with Digital Media and Technology" Google Hangout session moderated by OITP Fellow Renee Hobbs. This virtual national conversation will take place at 7 p.m. EST Wednesday, Nov. 14.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Library Association's (ALA) Office for Information Technology Policy (OITP) and the Library & Information Technology Association (LITA) are extending the deadline for submitting nominations for best library practices using cutting-edge technology to Nov. 16.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, a diverse coalition of retailers, libraries, educators, Internet companies and associations joined together to launch the Owners' Rights Initiative (ORI) to protect ownership rights in the United States. ORI is committed to ensuring the right to resell genuine goods, regardless of where they were manufactured. The organization believes that this right is critical to commerce and will engage in advocacy, education and outreach on this important issue.
CHICAGO — The following open letter was released by American Library Association (ALA) President Maureen Sullivan regarding Simon & Schuster, Macmillan, and Penguin refusal to provide access to their e-books in U.S. libraries.
The open letter states:
Washington, D.C. — The American Library Association (ALA) denounces Hachette Book Group's reported decision to raise the price of e-books to the library market starting Oct. 1. ALA President Maureen Sullivan issued the following statement:
Washington, D.C. — The American Library Association (ALA) applauds the Weinberg Foundation for its dedication of $5 million to build 12 new school libraries for Baltimore City Public Schools. On Wednesday, Sept. 12, the first of the three renovated libraries of the project was opened to the public at Thomas Johnson Elementary/Middle School.
Washington, D.C. — As the digital environment continues to develop rapidly, school librarians and K-12 educators face challenging issues concerning copyright-protected print and online materials at schools and outside of the traditional educational environment. When asked to make copyright decisions, uncertain librarians and educators tend to take more conservative copyright positions than necessary for fear of liability.
Washington, DC — Based on conversations with publishers and deliberations on the e-book market, the American Library Association (ALA) today released "Ebook Business Models for Public Libraries (PDF)," a report that describes general features and attributes of the current e-book environment and outlines constraints and restrictions of current business models.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — This week, as the Cybersecurity Act (CSA) moves to the Senate floor, the American Library Association is joining a wide-ranging coalition of digital rights groups and advocates by launching the Stop Cyber Spying campaign to ensure companies do not have new, overbroad authority to monitor and block private communications.

text: OverviewBack to top of page Enzymedica - ViraStop 2X - 90 Capsules Code#:100551 Manufacturer:Enzymedica Size/Form:90 Capsules Packaged Ship Weight:0.25 Servings:90 Dosage Size:1 Capsule(s) Enzymedica - ViraStop 2x Proteolytic Enyme Formulation - 90 Capsules Enzymedica Virastop 2x contains Ezymedica's strongest and most therapeutic blend of proteolytic enzymes to support the immune system. ViraStop 2X is two times more potent than Virastop (one capsule of Virastop 2x = two capsules of virastop). Protease enzymes break down proteins, be they proteins in the digestive system, cellular debris or toxins in the blood. Not all proteases, however, can break down all proteins. Therapeutic protease enzymes go beyond digestion, travel through our bloodstream and serve as catalysts to metabolism, detoxification and immune activity. The proteolytic enzymes in ViraStop 2X support the enzymatic activity of the human body, making the formula a potent immune balancer. While proteolytic enzymes are able to dissolve almost all proteins, this only applies to proteins that are not components of living cells. For protease to digest a protein it must be damaged, attached to a dead organism, or be a protein that does not belong in the body. The body employs enzymes to break down foreign invaders such as bacteria, yeasts and viruses. This happens because viruses are cell parasites consisting of nucleic acids covered by a protein film. Once digested, the body eliminates the virus through its inherent systems of purification and elimination. Research has shown that oral proteases, taken as a dietary supplement on an empty stomach are absorbed and carried into the blood stream where they are bound to plasma proteins known as Alpha-II-macroglobulin. Recent research also indicates that the oral proteases bound to these plasma proteins are able to break down protein based pathogens in the blood. This includes viruses, fungi such as candida, bacteria and parasites. About Enzymedica: The Enzyme Experts Enzymedica's Mission:Enzymedica is dedicated to providing exceptional enzyme-focused supplements at the most therapeutic levels available in the natural foods industry and beyond. It is their commitment to provide unprecedented education and research that propels individuals on the path to vibrant health. In the spring of 1998, Enzymedica was born. The role of Enzymedica is to offer the public the most effective enzyme products available. They utilize the expertise of doctors, researchers and clinicians in formulating each of their products. They are proud of what they have to offer the public, namely therapeutic enzyme supplements that have been health professional proven. Enzymedica's entire focus and purpose is enzymes. They are the experts. Unlike most of their competitors, Enzymedica does not make vitamin supplements or herbal cleanses. All they manufacture are the highest quality, highest potency enzyme products available. Enzymedica products are Health Professional proven. Enzymedica products contain the highest therapeutic activities available. No other company uses higher active units in a multiple enzyme line. In addition to a digestive enzyme that is on average three times stronger than their competitors, Enzymedica has a therapeutic digestive enzyme blend, a carbohydrate digestion and allergy assistance blend, a blood purifier, and a fat digestion and cardiovascular product. Enzymedica is proud to be GMP Registered through NSF International. Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) are guidelines that provide a system of processes, procedures, and documentation to assure the product produced has the identity, strength, composition, quality, and purity that it is represented to possess. NSF International helps protect you by certifying products and writing standards for food, water and consumer goods. As an independent, not-for-profit organization, NSF's ongoing public health commitment is to encourage everyone to live safer. The NSF GMP Registration for contract manufacturers and internal manufacturing facilities of dietary supplement companies enables contract manufacturers to become independently registered by NSF as complying with GMP requirements as listed in Section 8 of NSF/ANSI Standard 173-2006. NSF's Dietary Supplement Standard is updated to keep pace with FDA GMP regulations. Enzymedica uses an exclusive Thera-blend process for its protease, lipase, amylase and cellulase. This means that each of these enzymes actually represents multiple strains. For example, there are actually four proteases in the Thera-blend protease. They are blended for their ability to break down numerous bonds of protein in varying pH levels. Enzymedica does this at a considerable expense. From a label description Enzymedica also sacrifices active units to provide the best blend possible. A single protease, for example, could produce more active units per milligram than a multiple protease. However, the active pH would be narrow and the number of protein bonds it could break would be limited. Enzymedica products are 100% vegan and vegetarian. Enzymedica uses no fillers in any of its enzyme formulations. You will no doubt notice how small the capsules are in comparison to similar products. This is a result of using concentrates with no fillers. Research EffortsEnzymedica continues to research the therapeutic effectiveness of plant based enzymes through doctors and clinicians. Currently, the company is coordinating and funding research that is ongoing. Enzymedica has every batch third party tested. This ensures they always meet label claim.

I am back from the DoDIIS Conference in lovely downtown Detroit... I noticed an eerie lack of hustle and bustle in the downtown district, in spite of the conference's success. Cool architecture kept my interest as well as some inviting eating establishments.
Here are my Must Do Items and "Must Not Do" for these kind of conferences:
It was interesting to note lately that the nation's four space agencies, NASA, the NRO, Missile Defense Agency and the Army's Space and Missile Systems Command are collaborating over support tasks and mission areas that they share in common. Things like launch infrastructure and engineering as well as strategic parts sourcing are probably on a list of common items. When Congress fully gets hold of the idea, you may see GAO reporting on the subject, too. This makes too much sense to not pursue. As with all trends in the federal market, the challenge is figuring how to monetize this shift in policy and execution.
I am always thrilled when I can come back from an intelligence community (IC) event with leads... and the best kind come from simply showing up, paying attention and thinking on my feet. I can definitely get better, but if I have a good day generating leads, it's because I applied these rules.
I was reminded this week (while at the NSA) of a common mistake often made by entrepreneurs in the DoD and IC market. It is tempting to claim that your firm is an expert at two dozen areas of focus. On one level, I understand this because the same personality and intellect that would launch a new business tends to see more, do more and want more… than the average professional. So, I understand (if you're guilty of this tendency) your "reach-of-the starts" mentality. It runs in your blood.
Wow! Unless you've been under a rock for the last ten years, you have seen some pretty interesting technology innovations in our market. But this headline really caught my eye: "C2 Technologies Develops iPhone Mobile App for Army's Patriot Missile". It's interesting because the iPhone app is used not to launch a Patriot missile but to train the troops how to launch the missile, and care for the equipment (and all that goes with it). How cool is that?
I am -- yet again, amazed at who I run into at various networking events. I am tempted to go into "listen-only" mode, sometimes when I spend too much time in my cave (i.e., home office) so… occasionally, I have to remind myself to open up a bit and talk at these events. I usually come away with another valuable contact.
Consider this January 31st posting by Michael M. Dunn, President/CEO of the Air Force Association; spend three minutes considering how your company's value proposition supports the IC in these events. The world is constantly changing. What is your contribution to making the IC agencies better in their specific mission, given this list of potential or outright threats?
For some folks, capture management if a four letter word!
To get some insights, I tuned into a Federal News Radio program hosted by Larry Allen. His guest back in 2009 was Bob Lohfeld, President of the Lohfeld Consulting Group; as you'd expect, the nature of capture management is much more than just the proposal effort. (see: http://www.wfed.com/index.php?hlpage=6&nid=46&sid=1805751)
There has been recent news over the last several weeks related to SecDef Gates and his intention to cut $78B from the overall budget over five years and pare-down the DoD IT budgets specifically, which are currently absorbing about $37B annually. I sure hope you haven't lost any sleep over this… it amounts to well less than 3 percent. So, while I give the SECDEF high marks, these would not be considered bold cuts by anyone's definition. (I don't count the congressman or senator who may lose a single program as legitimate criticism... politics will always create disproportionate whining when it comes to cuts).
As readers have noticed, change can mean opportunity, when selling to the IC. But, if you and I don't take a few moments, every quarter, we'll miss the significance of the changes and the chance to leverage them into our own benefit. Here are some examples that strike me as possibly useful.
