Information Technology is for everyone, not just geeks. But that means security is everyone's business, as you will discover in the pages of this excellent book — Vinton G. Cerf - a Founding Father of the Internet This book serves as a great complement to the courses that make up the Stanford Center for Professional Development (SCPD) Security Certification Program. The book explains in detail how to defend against a wide range of attacks, and teaches principles of secure system design.— Dr. Dan Boneh, Associate Professor, Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, Stanford University "Foundations of Security: What Every Programmer Needs to Know" teaches new and current software professionals state-of-the-art software security design principles, methodology, and concrete programming techniques they need to build secure software systems. Once youre enabled with the techniques covered in this book, you can start to alleviate some of the inherent vulnerabilities that make todays software so susceptible to attack. The book uses web servers and web applications as running examples throughout the book. For the past few years, the Internet has had a "wild, wild west" flavor to it. Credit card numbers are stolen in massive numbers. Commercial web sites have been shut down by Internet worms. Poor privacy practices come to light and cause great embarrassment to the corporations behind them. All these security-related issues contribute at least to a lack of trust and loss of goodwill. Often there is a monetary cost as well, as companies scramble to clean up the mess when they get spotlighted by poor security practices. It takes time to build trust with users, and trust ishard to win back. Security vulnerabilities get in the way of that trust. "Foundations of Security: What Every Programmer Needs To Know" helps you manage risk due to insecure code and build trust with users by showing how to write code to prevent, detect, and contain attacks.The lead author cofounded the Stanford Center for Professional Development Computer Security Certification.This book teaches you how to be more vigilant and develop a sixth sense for identifying and eliminating potential security vulnerabilities.Youll receive hands-on code examples for a deep and practical understanding of security.Youll learn enough about security to get the job done.

He tapped her on the shoulder, looked deeply -- and perturbingly -- into her eyes, and said: "You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." However this is real life and not a Jennifer Aniston movie, and she did not drop helplessly to her knees and fellate him. She said, "Uh, thanks," and shuffled away. She doesn't know you, man.

To be considered for Federal Student Aid, a student must complete a FAFSA. It collects financial and other information used to calculate the expected family contribution (EFC) and to determine a student's eligibility through computer matches with agencies.
Because students occasionally make errors on their FAFSA applications, there is a process for verifying applications and making corrections.The Central Processing System (CPS) selects which applications are to be verified, but on a case-by-case basis the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office may select individual students for verification.
UVU verifies all students selected by the Central Processing System (CPS). Students may select themselves for verification. Students initially selected for verification by CPS must complete verification before the student is awarded. Students who are selected for verification on a subsequent FAFSA transaction after their aid has disbursed must complete verification before they can receive additional aid; in addition, if they have been awarded work study they must stop working until their verification is completed. Students who have received a Direct Loan cannot have future loans originated until verification is completed.
If a student's financial aid application is found to have any conflicting information regarding eligibility for aid, the UVU Financial Aid and Scholarships Office must resolve the conflict. We may request additional documents at any time to resolve the discrepancies.
For the 2014-2015 aid year, students must have a valid FAFSA by the last day of the term for which they are enrolled or June 30th, 2015, whichever is sooner. However, the ability to be awarded and/or retroactively awarded is determined by meeting all eligibility requirements at the time the file is completed. This includes Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). For the Pell Grant program, the student may submit verification documents no later than 100 days after the last day of enrollment, or two weeks before the last day of Summer term, whichever is sooner. Students may only be awarded retroactively for terms during which they met and maintained Satisfactory Academic Progress standards and met all other eligibility requirements.
For the Direct Stafford Loan and Campus-Based Aid programs, the student may submit verification documents no later than two weeks before their last day of enrollment, or two weeks before the last day of Summer term, whichever is sooner. Students may only be awarded retroactively for terms during which they met and maintained Satisfactory Academic Progress standards and met all other eligibility requirements.
Students who fail to submit their verification documents by the appropriate dates forfeit receiving Title IV aid as well as any other State or Institutional Aid that requires FAFSA information. If the student chooses to wait until the deadlines listed above to submit their verification documentation, the documentation will be processed; however, if they do not meet all eligibility requirements for the term they were enrolled in (including SAP), they cannot be retroactively awarded. We encourage all students to submit verification documentation at least two weeks before they cease to be enrolled.
Note that loans cannot be originated after the last date of the student's enrollment; consequently, failing to submit verification documents during the term he or she is enrolled will prevent him or her from receiving a loan. Therefore, the student must submit verification documents at least two weeks before they cease to be enrolled in order to receive a loan.
If the student is not initially selected for verification and receives a Pell Grant, but is then selected on a subsequent FAFSA transaction, the student cannot have additional Pell Grant funds disbursed to him or her. The student must provide the appropriate verification documents at least two weeks before he or she ceases to be enrolled. If the student does not provide the verification documentation within this time, he or she will forfeit Title IV aid and any State or Institutional aid that requires verification for the remaining award year. The student must repay any Pell Grant, SEOG, or Perkins funds already received for that award year. The student must also stop working if he or she is receiving Work Study funds. A student does not need to return to UVU the Direct Loan funds that were received before being selected for verification.
If selected, you will be required to provide the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office with specified forms and documents. Students can view their UVLink requirements to determine what documents are needed.
All UVU forms can be obtained through your UVLink Account. When returning the documentation to the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office, please label your documents clearly with your name and UVID.
The following items may be requested for verification for the 2014-2015 year:
If you are selected for verification and you did not use, but were eligible to use, the IRS Data Retrieval Tool when completing your 2014 - 2015 FAFSA (filtering questions on the FAFSA determined eligibility), you may go back into your FAFSA and use this tool to reduce the need to submit your 2013 (for 2014 – 2015) IRS Tax Return Transcript. We strongly recommend you use this tool if you are eligible.
If you are unable to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool and you are selected for verification, you will be required to submit a copy of your 2013 (for 2014 – 2015) IRS Tax Return Transcript. If applicable, your spouse or parent(s) will be required to submit a copy of their 2013 IRS Tax Return Transcript as well. If you are a dependent student and you want to use the tool, but your parents are unable to use it, they will be required to submit copies of their 2013 IRS Tax Return Transcripts.
Tax filers can download their IRS Tax Return Transcripts directly from the IRS website.
Please see our IRS Data Retrieval Tool page for help in using the Tool or to view the steps on how to obtain your 2013 IRS Tax Return Transcript.

In the last decade, Cambodia has halved its poverty rate and improved the living conditions of its population. Yet because of extreme climate events that regularly descend on the country, Cambodia remains one of the most disaster-vulnerable countries in Southeast Asia. In 2013 alone, losses caused by floods added up to USD $356 million. Disasters are tragic because of the consequences on human life and well-being, but they also present an opportunity to promote what UNDP now calls "risk-informed development." Various actors and communities can—and should—work more closely together to create effective, multi-disciplinary approaches to respond to disasters and promote disaster risk reduction. Take the 2013 floods as an example. A combination of heavy rains and the swelling of the Mekong River caused widespread damage to infrastructure and crops. 168 people died, most of them children, and 20 provinces were devastated, with thousands of hectares of rice destroyed and hundreds of kilometers of rural roads badly damaged. Following the floods, the Cambodian government requested that UNDP work with various partners to carry out a Post Flood Early Recover Needs Assessment. Drawing on the expertise of UNDP's country office, as well as the skills and knowledge of government partners, NGOs, and... Read more

Beer enthusiasts offer taste of craft beer at free event
Bianca Montes
Sept. 19, 2013 at 4:19 a.m.
IF you go
The Pint Jockeys meet the third Thursday of each month to taste new selections of seasonal craft beers at the three Del Papa Distribution Centers. The event is free and open to the public ages 21 and older with identification. For more information, visit the group's Facebook page at facebook.com/PintJockeys.
• Goose Island Harvest Ale - This traditional American Extra Special Bitter or "ESB," incorporates fresh-picked cascade hops from Washington with rich, Midwestern malts. The ale pours a dark amber hue with caramel flavors, a toasty malt character and fruity, citrusy aromas.
• Karbach Karbachtoberfest - An authentic, Bavarian-style Marzen, this brew is created with mashed Vienna and Munich malts, then cold fermented and aged for six weeks to create its impressive rounded malt character. With a clear, amber pour and foamy, off-white head, this brew gives off an aroma full of toffee and caramel notes. You'll also note hints of earth and grass entwined with its extremely malty smell.
• Shock Top Pumpkin Wheat - This traditional Belgian-style wheat ale fully captures all the flavors of fall. The ale is brewed with ripe pumpkins and a variety of autumnal spices, including nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves to create a refreshingly smooth mouth feel.
• Cornel's Pecan Pie - Reminisce about your grandmother's famous pecan pie with this fantastic ale from Cornel's Brewing Company. The brew is made using a Scottish 80 shillings-style recipe and brewed with pecans and Karo syrup to achieve its unique flavor profile.
• Sierra Nevada Flipside - This Red IPA is the perfect beer for the final flash of summer. Featuring a ruby-red hue and loads of tropical fruit and citrus hop flavors, this brew takes you from summer to fall almost seamlessly with just the right balance of sweet, earthy flavors.
• Woodchuck Special Reserve Pumpkin - The world's first-ever pumpkin hard cider, this one is a real treat. The cider is handcrafted using centuries-old cider-making techniques with fresh and crisp pumpkin at the finish. It is naturally gluten-free and pairs nicely with many distinguished holiday dishes, including roasted duck, turkey, creme brulee and squash ravioli.

There's a culture of quantity over quality when it comes to beer drinking in Texas, and Joby Stortz considers himself a Natural Light man. It tastes great, and it's cheap.
However, that doesn't mean craft beers are off the radar for the 30-year-old from Victoria. Once a month, he and his friends join the Pint Jockeys, a group of craft brew enthusiasts, for a free tasting event at the Del Papa Distribution Center on East Rio Grande Road.
"It gives you the opportunity to experiment," Stortz said as he sipped a Goose Island Harvest Ale, calling the fruity American hop beer both nutty and light.
"It's really well-rounded," he said. "Anyone who is new to craft beers should try this one."
Cornel's Brewing Company Pecan Pie was another story - the Beaumont-brewed ale came in a dark brown, tall bottle, and Stortz said he would have purchased it on looks alone.
"I would have spent $10," he said, barely finishing the 3-ounce tester and describing its flavor as artificial.
Rodney Norrell, brand manager for craft and specialty beers at Del Papa Distribution, said there's not a lot of science that goes into the beers they choose. "We chose what's new and seasonal," he said.
September is the time of year beers' flavors change, he said.
A special reserve pumpkin by Woodchuck Hard Cider was a big hit for both women and men at Thursday's tasting. Laurie Salinas, 48, of Victoria, said she knew she liked it as soon as she smelled it.
At a 6.9 percent alcohol by volume, the cider was the strongest drink of the night, but Salinas said its sweet and crisp flavor was welcoming at the end of the evening.
Even Stortz - a man who said if he indulges in a craft beer it's usually a dark, bitter stout - said he's beginning to enjoy the ciders.
"I didn't like them at all when they first came out," he said. "But now that they're infusing different flavors like ginger, I'm starting to like them."
The event, which occurs at all three Del Papa Distribution centers from 5 to 7 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month, simply put, is designed to raise awareness for craft beer in Southeast Texas, Norrell said.
"We wanted to give people a chance to try new and interesting beers," he said. "It just kind of felt like a logical thing to do."

Elgin 1-2 Albion: Match Report
Elgin 1-2 Albion: Match Report - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game as it happened.
Albion victorious in fiery affair
Albion ran out 2-1 winners in an ill-disciplined affair at Elgin as both sides ended the game with 10 men.
The visitors took the lead on the stroke of half-time when Patrick Walker produced a fine finish high into the top corner following some good work by David Crawford.
And they doubled the advantage from the penalty spot eight minutes after the restart. Crawford this time stepped up to take and coolly slotted the ball past Raymond Jellema.
However, they were reduced to 10 men after 69 minutes when goalkeeper Neil Parry was dismissed for serious foul play.
But City themselves were soon a man light when Sean Crighton was shown a second yellow, before Craig Gunn grabbed a late consolation from 12 yards.

A summary of the recommendations may be accessed at maine.gov/education/supportingschools/index.html. The subcommittee's recommendations include a requirement that the Department of Education create one or more alternatives to achieve the following: The President of the Senate, Beth Edmonds, has asked the Department of Education to prepare models for legislators to examine as they deliberate on these recommendations. As the Department begins this work, I want to invite you to submit recommendations for this modeling. Almost daily we hear about the work happening between school administrative units regarding possible reorganizations, and want to build models on the conversations that have already begun. The timeline for the implementation indicated in the subcommittee's proposal, if passed by the legislature, is July 1, 2008. To facilitate a successful start to this process, if passed, I have engaged the professional leadership of two former superintendents, Ray Poulin and Norman Higgins. We have a very short timeframe to prepare the models and would appreciate you sending your input by responding to the attached set of questions and returning your responses to the following e-mail email@example.com by Wednesday, April 25, 2007. (If your school administrative unit is waiting for final resolution from the legislature on reorganization prior to engaging in conversations with other units but would like to offer your input, please complete the contact information on the attached sheet and question 3.) I appreciate your assistance as the Department prepares these preliminary models. Attachment: Regionalization Models Survey |

Apple, Google, Adobe, Intel attempt to end poaching lawsuit
Apple, Google, Adobe, and Intel have agreed to a settlement in the anti-poaching lawsuit, Reuters reports. The suit accused several large Silicon Valley companies of collaborating to avoid poaching each others employees while also fixing salaries, and was originally brought against Apple and several other companies in 2011 as a class action by about 100,000 tech employees. In late 2013, U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh ordered that the suit would proceed against Apple, Google, Adobe, and Intel; the other defendants originally named – Intuit, Lucasfilm, and Pixar – had previously settled out of court.
The suit originally requested damages of $9 billion, or about $90,000 in lost wages per employee. While the four companies offered a settlement of $324.5 million in April 2014, the proposal was rejected by Judge Koh as falling "below the range of reasonableness" after one of the plaintiffs objected. Judge Koh referred to a 2013 settlement involving Disney and Intuit, noting that Apple and Google workers received proportionally less than Disney workers, despite the "much more leverage" that the plaintiffs had against Apple and Google; Koh wrote that the deal with Apple, Google, Adobe, and Intel "would need to total at least $380 million." The new agreement is reportedly closer to a joint payment of $415 million, and a detailed explanation of the deal is expected to be filed "imminently" at which point Judge Koh will then need to either accept or reject the new filing.
Details on Apple Watch 'Companion' app revealed
A new report from 9to5Mac reveals details on the "Companion" app for the Apple Watch expected to appear in iOS 8.2. iOS Developer Steve Troughton-Smith discovered a method for loading the app on an iPhone, allowing screenshots to be captured, providing some insight into how the Apple Watch will interact with the iPhone.
Some of the features noted by the report include the ability for users to customize the Apple Watch home screen from the iPhone app, respond to messages via canned responses, voice dictation, or audio messages, and customize messaging features and notifications in a manner similar to the Messages settings on the iPhone itself. A new clock face feature, Monogram, has also been discovered, which will allow users to include a virtual embedded character 'stamp' on a clock face. Further investigation of the app also reveals more details about accessibility and how the passcode system on the Apple Watch will be implemented.
Apple responds to EU iTunes refund abuse
Following the introduction of its 14-day iTunes refund policy in Europe, Apple has apparently begun clamping down on refund abuse, according to a new report from 9to5Mac. Citing a tweet from developer Rosyna Keller, users who are detected by Apple as abusing the new refund policy will now be presented with a dialog box requiring them to acknowledge that they will no longer be eligible to receive a refund once they have downloaded the item in question.
So it appears Apple does detect abusers of their new 14-day return policy for digital items and revokes the ability. pic.twitter.com/JegmZlPiZy
— Rosyna Keller (@rosyna) January 12, 2015
Since iTunes and App Store purchases normally begin downloading automatically once the user clicks the "Buy" button, this effectively removes the user's right to receive a refund as soon as they click the "Buy" button. The relevant EU consumer protection laws specify that refunds are generally only available if the user has not begun "downloading or streaming the content," provided the user is notified and acknowledges that this is the case prior to completing the purchase. Apple's own Right of Withdrawal policy explicitly notes this as well:
You cannot cancel your order for the supply of digital content if the delivery has started upon your request and acknowledgement that you thereby lose your cancellation right.
In this case, it would appear that Apple has, by default, chosen the more user-friendly approach of providing a seamless one-click download experience rather than interrupting the user with additional confirmation popups. However, for those abusing the refund system – using it as a "try-before-you-buy" option, or taking advantage of a loophole previously reported by 9to5Mac – Apple is basically enforcing the letter of the law by notifying users that they will lose their right to a refund once they begin downloading the app, effectively requiring them to acknowledge that this is the case.
Apple releases additional specs on third-party Lightning port support
Following Apple's announcement that third-party manufacturers will be able to license the female Lightning port, the company has now released more detailed specifications for how the port can be implemented various accessories, 9to5Mac reports. Apple is apparently hoping that a large range of different accessories will move from micro-USB to the Lightning port standard, and will allow manufacturers to have the port draw power from any MFi-certified power adapter, as well as providing passthrough charging and syncing for iOS devices connected to the other side of the accessory, such as iPhones used in battery cases. The passthrough feature could also allow a dock to simultaneously charge an iPhone while also providing audio output to Lightning headphones.
The specs note, however, that only one Lightning port will be allowed per accessory, ruling out the development of Lightning splitters or hubs. Faster charging will be possible via Lightning, however, with MFi-certified USB power adapters providing power ranging from a minimum of 1.0A to the Apple-recommended 2.4A level suitable for charging an iPad at full speed. Unfortunately, at this point the Lightning port is only available in sample quantities for development purposes, and all specs remain in "Developer Preview" mode, with some sections still listed as "to be determined." It's therefore unclear when the first accessories with female Lightning ports will actually appear.
Apple releases iOS 8.2 beta 4 to developers, adds Apple Watch support
Apple has released the fourth beta of iOS 8.2 to registered developers. The latest release appears to add direct support for pairing an Apple Watch via Bluetooth, with a note in the standard Bluetooth settings directing users to use the "Apple Watch app" to do so. The note appears to link to the App Store, suggesting that an Apple Watch app could be available as a separate download that users will need to install, rather than being bundled with the future iOS 8.2 update.
Apple Pay coming to Canada in March?
Apple may be planning a Canadian rollout of Apple Pay as early as this March, according to a new report from 9to5Mac. Citing "sources close to the situation," the report notes that Canadian launch partners are currently in negotiations with Apple. Those partners are also in the process of planning advertising and promotional material scheduled for a possible release in March. While the report notes that negotiations are still ongoing, it claims that several sources have indicated that Apple is also targeting that timeframe. It remains unclear at this time whether Apple Pay would be launched across all of the six major Canadian banks right away, or limited to only specific partners for the initial rollout.

Happy New Year from iLounge! We'll be on a limited publication schedule today and Thursday as we begin 2015 with our families and friends. We'll return to our normal posting schedule on Friday, Jan. 2.
It's definitely been an interesting 2014 for Apple, as the company unsurprisingly delayed its biggest releases to a series of fall events. However, we eventually saw the growth of the iPhone into two new, larger-screened models, the introduction of the thinner iPad Air 2, and the announcement of the long-rumored Apple Watch, setting the stage for an interesting 2015. While the iOS accessories and app markets are clearly maturing, there are still cool new products to surprise and delight us, and we've highlighted the year's best Apple and third-party hardware and software releases in a special awards article.
We'll again be heading out to Las Vegas later this week to prepare for the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show. As always, companies will unveil their latest and greatest iOS products at the show — debuting in our iProducts Marketplace and elsewhere during the week. The 2015 International CES officially kicks off next Tuesday. Feel free to browse through our archives until we return, and please join us for our upcoming CES live coverage. Once again, Happy New Year!
Apple introduces 14-day refund policy on iTunes purchases in the EU
Apple has introduced a fourteen-day return policy for iTunes purchases in EU countries, according to a new report by iFun. Outlined in a Right of Withdrawal document on Apple's web site, the policy states that customers can cancel iTunes orders within 14 days from the date they receive their receipt, without a requirement to provide any reason. The policy also covers purchases such as iTunes Match and Season Pass subscriptions, as well as unredeemed iTunes Gifts and Allowances. Users can apparently request a "cancellation" of their iTunes order by using the "Report a Problem" form within iTunes and submitting a model cancellation form provided in the document, or "making any other clear statement." While Apple's policy document provides some additional clauses that are a bit unclear, the original report notes that people have already begun receiving refunds under the new policy, which appears to be a result of recent EU consumer protection initiatives.
Report: Beats Music arranging exclusive releases
Apple executive and Beats co-founder Jimmy Iovine is apparently in talks with artists about doing exclusive releases for Beats Music, the New York Post reports. Executives responsible for the music subscription service are said to be looking to replicate the success that artists such as Beyoncé have had with exclusive iTunes releases by bringing such exclusivity to the streaming side. Beats will apparently be able to leverage the connections it already has with artists such as Nicki Minaj, Will.i.am, Pharrell, Kanye West and Gwen Stefani. Record labels are reportedly less enthusiastic about the idea of artists making their own side deals with music streaming services. Beats Music launched last year and has an estimated subscriber base of around 300,000 users. Since acquiring the service earlier this year, Apple has reportedly been working to integrate Beats Music more tightly into its iOS and iTunes ecosystem, so exclusive artist deals may also be intended to pave the way for a rebranding and relaunch of the Beats Music service under a more Apple-centric branding.
Apple announces annual Japanese Lucky Bag promotion
Apple has once again announced its Japanese New Year's promotion, offering Apple Store customers in Japan the opportunity to purchase "lucky bags." The annual event will kick off at the company's Japanese retail locations at 8 a.m. on January 2.
It has been a long-standing tradition among retailers in Japan to offer "lucky bags" or Fukubukuro on New Year's Day. Containing random items, these grab bags are sold at significant discounts, and customers can potentially score some great deals depending on what they end up with in their bag – customers are required to purchase the bags without first knowing what's in them. Last year the bags were sold for ¥36,000 (around $344 US at that time), however this year's pricing has not yet been revealed. Apple's lucky bags typically contain bundles of accessories that are always collectively worth the asking price, although lucky customers may even find iPods, iPads, or MacBook Airs in their bags.

Russian Apple Online Store returns with increased prices
Apple has restored its Russian online store after pulling it down last week due to "extreme" ruble fluctuations. Though the store is now back online, it's returned with higher prices. iPhone prices have been increased by 35 percent — a 16GB iPhone 6 now costs 53,990 rubles ($956), up from the recent price of 39,990 rubles. As noted by Bloomberg, the iPhone's price in Russia has increased 69 percent in less than a month.
Cook 'deeply offended' by BBC allegations
Apple's CEO Tim Cook is "deeply offended" by allegations in a new BBC documentary regarding Apple's handling of workers at its Chinese suppliers, The Telegraph reports. In a BBC investigative report which aired last night, BBC's Panorama revealed poor treatment of workers and a breach of working hour standards, after sending undercover reporters into factories run by Apple supplier Pegatron located on the outskirts of Shanghai.
This morning, Apple Senior Vice President of Operations Jeff Williams sent out an e-mail to around 5,000 UK staffers, saying that both he and Apple CEO Tim Cook were "deeply offended by the suggestion that Apple would break a promise to the workers in our supply chain or mislead our customers in any way," and that in terms of accusations that Apple isn't improving working conditions, "nothing could be further from the truth." Williams alleges that Apple had shared "facts and perspective" regarding its commitment to human rights with the BBC, and that these details were "clearly missing from their programme."
We know of no other company doing as much as Apple does to ensure fair and safe working conditions, to discover and investigate problems, to fix and follow through when issues arise, and to provide transparency into the operations of our suppliers.
In response to the BBC's report that workers were falling asleep during extremely long shifts and being required to work numerous days while repeatedly being denied requests for time off, Williams responded that Apple has been tracking the weekly hours of "over one million workers" in its various manufacturing partners and that all of its suppliers are at an average of 93 percent compliance with Apple's 60-hour work week limit. Williams conceded that the company can do better, but maintains its commitment to doing so.
The BBC documentary also claimed that it had found cases of child workers and dangerous working conditions in the mines on the Indonesian island of Bangka, where Apple sources its tin supply from. Williams responded to this in much the same way as Apple's original statement, noting that "Apple has publicly stated that tin from Indonesia ends up in our products, and some of that tin likely comes from illegal mines," but that the situation is complex and the company is actively working to improve the situation in that country, believing that remaining engaged is the more responsible course of action, rather than sourcing tin from elsewhere. Since Apple consumes a relatively small portion of the tin mined in Indonesia, Williams stated that simply sourcing tin from elsewhere would "do nothing to improve the situation for Indonesian workers."
In the internal e-mail, Wiliams assured staff that despite Apple's position on the documentary itself, the company is taking all of the allegations seriously and plans to investigate all of the claims that have been made, acknowledging that the company is aware that there are "a lot of issues out there" and that Apple "will not rest until every person in our supply chain is treated with the respect and dignity they deserve."
BBC investigative report claims Apple fails to protect Chinese workers
Apple has not lived up to its commitment to improve working conditions in its Chinese suppliers' factories, according to a new undercover BBC investigation. In a documentary scheduled to air tonight, titled "Apple's Broken Promises," BBC Panorama shows what conditions inside a Chinese iPhone 6 production line are really like. The investigation found standards being breached at Pegatron factories on everything from workers' hours, to dormitories, to juvenile workers — all areas in which Apple had promised sweeping improvements over the past several years. The documentary includes footage of exhausted workers falling asleep on 12-hour shifts, an undercover reporter who was forced to work 18 days in a row despite repeated requests for time off, and another reporter who worked shifts of up to 16 hours. Panorama also followed Apple's supply chain down to the Indonesian island of Bangka, and found evidence that tin from illegal mines could be entering Apple's supply chain, despite the company's dedication to ethical sourcing of minerals. Investigative reporters also found children digging tin ore out of the mines by hand under extremely dangerous conditions.
Apple declined to be interviewed for the story, but the company did release a statement saying that it is "aware of no other company doing as much as Apple to ensure fair and safe working conditions." The company noted that it was a "very common practice" for workers to nap during breaks, but that it would "investigate any evidence" of workers falling asleep while actually working. In its statement, the company said that it had monitored the working hours of "more than a million workers" and that the workers at the particular plant in question were averaging 55 hours per week. Responding to the situation in Bangka, Apple described it as a "complex situation" as many miners sell tin through a series of middle men, so it's not always possible to confirm the sources of tin, but Apple remains engaged in Bangka to attempt to "drive changes on the ground" to improve the situation there.
Panorama: Apple's Broken Promises airs tonight on BBC One and will be available later on BBC's iPlayer platform.

Tim Cook announces $20M raised for (PRODUCT)RED in internal e-mail
Apple CEO Tim Cook has sent out an e-mail to employees announcing that Apple has raised $20 million this quarter for (PRODUCT)RED, iClarified reports, with Apple's Holiday (PRODUCT)RED campaign likely contributing the lion's share of the fundraising, which goes to support the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa.
I'm thrilled to announce that our total donation for this quarter will be more than $20 million — our biggest ever — bringing the total amount Apple has raised for (PRODUCT) RED to over $100 million. The money we've raised is saving lives and bringing hope to people in need. It's a cause we can all be proud to support."
Apple has long been a supporter of the (PRODUCT)RED campaign, beginning with the debut of the iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition in 2006, although this year's World AIDS Day 2014 campaign was the largest the company has undertaken, and the first time App Store content has been included.

I just received these today and I love them! The buttons and zipper in the back are adorable. They overall look really cute. My one complaint would be that the top of the boot is a bit wide, but I have skinny legs so maybe that's just me. I ordered a size 8 (I'm usually a 7 1/2 but I wanted to make sure I wouldn't get blisters) and they are a little big. So if you get them, just know they run TRUE to size. Good boots for a reasonable price
I love love these! They arrived today and I just love the way the look and feel. I can't wait to wear them
These boots are great -- however they are taller than what i was expecting. I am about 5'5, and they hit JUST at my knee. Like touching my knee-bone when i was expecting them to sit below my knee. Other than that, the boots are great and look fantastic.

While you are sitting on the couch glued to the TV with your chicken wings and an ice cold beer, cheering on the Cardinals and Steelers, open your laptop. There is a website based here in Wilmington where you can get all the Super Bowl action outside of the game.
Let's be honest. Not everyone watches the Super Bowl for the football game. Many tune in to catch what are arguably the most entertaining commercials of the year. Well here is your hub: Super Bowl Talkies.
Catch replays of the top commercials voted on by a team of judges. While you are watching the game on the big screen, you can interact with friends and the judges on the website, through instant messaging.
The site was launched by Wilmington marketing agency, Talk. You will be able to catch the commercials all over the web, but Talk president, Debbie Elliott, said local viewers will get more out of a local website. "We're going to having literally, an online conversation like a live chat during the game. I think the folks in our viewership area, would really get more out of it because they're speaking directly with someone in their own community about our perceptions of the ads."
Participate in polls, see the results, and blog on the site. Not only can you watch the Super Bowl ads on the website, you can also find out behind-the-scenes information about the commercials. For example, it costs about $3 million to advertise during this year's Super Bowl. Well Miller High Life has another idea. Instead of spending $3 million, for say a 30 second commercial, they are going to run a one second ad, called a Blink.
The ad will cost the company significantly less than three million dollars. The company wanted to reinforce High Life's commitment to brew an honest, good beer at a tasty price.
If you miss the Blink, or any other Super Bowl commercials, you can catch them on Talkies, so you are not left out of the conversation at the office.
Another way to get in on the commercial action is on GoDaddy.com. The web site hosting company will debut an internet only version of its Super Bowl commercial on it's website.
The public can cast their vote on which of the two commercials they wanted to air on Super Bowl Sunday. The winning commercial is expected to air during the first quarter of the game.

Taste of the Wild Rocky Mountain Canned Cat Food, 5.5-oz, case of 24
Carnivorous cats agree: "The Rocky Mountains are the promised land!" At least since it has served as the inspiration for this feline feast. Real salmon, chicken liver, and venison are unique protein sources not commonly used in cat food, making them easy to digest and reducing the risk of food-related allergies. Blueberries, raspberries, tomatoes, and peas provide plenty of antioxidants to keep immune systems up to snuff, and soluble and insoluble fibers reduce hairballs. Hooray for the Rockies!
Key Benefits
- Serve on its own or as a dry food topper
- Salmon is easily digested for maximum protein absorption
- Dried Chicory Root reduces the risk of worms
- Yucca Schidigera extract reduces odor in stool and aids gastrointestinal function
- Grain-free formula mimics a cat's natural diet

For Sale - 1 Homelink auto dimming mirror for the Tacoma.
I had this installed in my 06 double cab Sport for about 2 years and it worked great. I removed the mirror before I traded the truck in and can't put it in my 09 because I have the backup camera monitor in there.
The mirror comes with the wire that attaches to the mirror and you have to wire it up in the overhead console. I don't have the directions for programming the homelink part but imagine they could be found somewhere on the internet.
Just take off the stock mirror, clip this one up, wire it, and program it for your garage door opener. I think it took me 30 minutes tops to install it.
$100 + actual shipping.
The mirror is in great shape.
I'm in the Chicagoland area if anyone is interested in picking it up.
Here is a good thread about installing the mirror:

Previously: The designers were challenged to create a high fashion look for a L'Oreal Paris advertorial. The winner would also get twenty grand. Valerie freaked out under pressure and Ivy was nice enough to comfort her. Mondo won the challenge! Ivy, though comforting, got the boot.
It's morning at, you guessed it, the Taj Mahal. Valerie tells Gretchen and April that she's surprised to still be in the competition after her performance at the previous challenge. She interviews that she's hoping the judges saw some unfulfilled potential in her. Who can see anything? All we can do is hear. Valerie, you talk too much. Just zip it and design for a while, K? She tells the girls that she wants to fight for Ivy. Then, she reminds us that Ivy was her best friend there. They apparently created one of those stupid couple names for themselves a la Bennifer -- "Latasian." We were mercifully spared hearing that more than this time right now. Gretchen tells her that her challenge is to show the judges that she can be fresh, which is what she believed Mondo to have done in the previous challenge. She interviews that she feels Mondo is her biggest competition and she needs to step up 3-D.
In the boys' room, Other Michael asks Mondo how it felt to win a second challenge in a row. He says it was unreal and he wasn't expecting the second win. He interviews that he thought Andy would win the previous challenge and finds him to be his biggest competition. Christopher tells Andy that he loved his piece for the high fashion challenge. Andy interviews that it's nice to get compliments on something that includes so much of yourself.
Heidi greets the designers on the runway. She says that, for this challenge, they will be starting from scratch. Tim will tell them the rest of the details. When they get to the workroom, everyone is surprised to find desktop computers with childhood pictures of themselves on the monitor. They all immediately start feeling sentimental, which is understandable- simpler times and such. Other Michael sees a picture of himself as a tyke in his underwear and laughs at his resemblance to his own son. There's a picture of Mondo dressed as a harlequin when he was a kid that's kind of amazing. He talks about how they haven't seen their families in a while since they've been on the show. Gretchen says that, seeing herself outside of the context of the show, she got emotional. She says that she misses her mom and hasn't seen her in a long time.

Merry Christmas to all my fellow Pxers.
This comes to you on Christmas Eve, and I apologize (better late than never!).
I hope you all enjoy the holidays as much as we here at MxPx do!
I wanted to do something for you in the form of a song this year.
The MxPx Digital Video Store is now open for business!

A number of specially discounted video bundles are available as well.
John Nissen discusses the creative process behind the iconic Pokinatcha Punk design on his blog..
As a special treat to our fans, John also granted us permission to share the early rough sketch he did that would be developed into the Pokinatcha album cover.
Twenty years ago today we released our very first studio album, Pokinatcha! Twenty years! It's hard to even grasp that! We were kids, still in high school, signed to a brand new label, no real idea what was ahead for us. We certainly had no idea that we would be around 20 years and eight studio albums later, still making music and doing what we love: touring the world and making memories with our fans and friends! Pokinatcha put us on the map and while our sound has grown and matured much since then, we can still hear the raw pop-punk MxPx sound on those 21 rough tracks.
One of the greatest enduring legacies from Pokinatcha is our beloved iconic Pokinatcha Punk logo. The Punk, designed by John Nissen has stood with us throughout all of the past 20 years, through various adaptations and reinterpretations. John designed all of the early Punk images — running, jumping, stomping, and skating. He was kind enough to come back and design this very special 20 Years of Pokinatcha logo just for the anniversary. Thank you John for 20 years of the Pokinatcha Punk!
We want to thank also Andy Husted, our original guitarist who recorded this album with us, Aaron Sprinkle for producing it, and Brandon Ebel at Tooth & Nail Records for releasing it. Of course most of all, we want to thank you, the fans for 20 years of music!

New Delhi: A double tragedy for a Dalit family in Hisar, Haryana after a man was finally cremated four days after he committed suicide because his daughter was allegedly gangraped by eight upper caste men in Dabra village.
The family says the father killed himself because he knew he wouldn't be able to take on the accused - who remain at large even three weeks after the crime.
The men gangraped her, filmed the crime and threatened to kill her if she exposed them. They are all wanted for murder. The girl's father was forced take this desperate step.
Reports indicate the accused circulated the video of the rape, but no action has been taken yet despite the girl's ability to identify the accused.
Thus far, the police has been able to arrest only one of the eight accused, and that too only after the father's death and mass protests by Dalits.
The NCPCR has promised an investigation into the case.
The girl's father's suicide may have got New Delhi's attention, but it's a long road still, to justice for her family and the community.

Thinking local and sustainable makes economic sense, says Tom Wessels
(Read article summary)Research ecologist argues a healthy economy and a healthy ecosystem go hand in hand.
Cathryn J. Prince
Weston, Conn.
If Dr. Seuss's Lorax speaks for the trees, Tom Wessels speaks for Earth's entire intricate ecosystems: After all, without forests and farms there wouldn't be any food.
As head of the conservation biology department at Antioch University New England in Keene, N.H., Mr. Wessels isn't against chopping down trees or clearing land to farm. He just wants to see more people embrace sustainable forest and land management practices.
Wessels, trained as a research ecologist, says economics plays as much a role in protecting the environment as does saving energy. Think how the adoption of fair trade principles for growing and selling coffee have changed the economics of that industry. Forests can benefit in the same way.
IN PICTURES: Protecting the butterflies' forest
"Adam Smith, the father of modern economic theory, wrote about this in 'Wealth of Nations,' " Wessels says. "People will act out of self-interest, but they can support each other doing it. The blacksmith makes the knives the butcher needs to earn his living; the butcher makes the meat the blacksmith needs to eat.
"Now we have too many corporations selling everything. We need to re-localize, re-regionalize, and become more resilient."

Tribeca Village Architect: Plunkett Raysich Architects, Madison Developer: T. Wall Properties Completion: 2009-2015 Cost: $250 million Size: 28 acres To include six office buildings, 169 residences, a hotel, retail space, and more.
It shouldn't be too surprising that Middleton, Wis., topped Money magazine's 2007 list of the 100 best places to live in the United States: In addition to its abundant natural charms, two decades ago the city, just west of state capital Madison, adopted a new urbanist approach to development. (The Middleton Hills neighborhood, north of downtown, is the only project in Wisconsin designed by Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk.)
The result is a city that still feels manageable and friendly even as it spreads outward. "The city planning department is excellent to work with," comments Melissa Destree, president of Madison-based Destree Design Architects. "They promote density and progressive design solutions."
But, in recent days, the Good Neighbor City has been struggling a bit to stay true to its motto in the face of big developments like T. Wall Properties' proposed $250 million, 28-acre mixed-use Tribeca Village project—scheduled to begin in 2009—that, until recently, was slated to include a Wal-Mart. At press time, public opposition had turned away the big-box retailer.
Still, Van Nutt, executive director of the Middleton Chamber of Commerce, is hopeful for Middleton's legacy and says he'd like to look back someday and be able to say, " 'The community used its remaining land resources well, maintaining balance between commercial growth, residential growth, and green space.' " But, he adds, "It will take ongoing strong leadership and cooperation to make this a reality."
The current population of 17,000 is growing 1 percent annually; job growth is 1.3 percent per year.
Office Market
Vacancy for Class A offices is under 5 percent; asking rate: $15/s.f.–$17.50/s.f., triple net.
Residential Market
Median home sales price in 2007: $261,000.
Market Strengths
Market Concerns
"The current planners appreciate the vision put in place over two decades ago to create a vibrant and centered community," says Ed Linville, principal of Madison's Linville Architects. "I see more emphasis on smart growth and a newfound interest in green design and protection of natural resources. I see footprints that are more concentrated."

Click here to return to previous page Article published Feb 3, 2013 Achingly accepting wisdom of workoutsLAURA PORTER ģ Dispatches from the home frontFor the first time in probably 25 years, the word ōfitnessö doesnÆt fill me with dread or induce automatic pangs of guilt. This is because, for the past few months, I have actually been going to the gym, at least unless my left wrist hurts or my workout clothes are dirty or it happens to be raining, snowing, too sunny or too early in the morning. It astonishes even me that I am managing to drag myself over there three to five times a week. This record is practically Olympian in comparison to my former exercise habits, which were more like three to five times a month. OK, a year. I can now walk the dog up a steep hill without breathing heavily or having to stop because IÆve pulled a hamstring. Going for a bike ride sounds like a good idea instead of cruel punishment. And, when I go to the gym, I actually remember the settings I need on the recumbent bike and the right amount of weight for the pull down machine. Which may not really be called the pull down machine. There are limits to my fitness expertise, after all. Many, many limits. Lest I misrepresent myself as some kind of future triathlete, let me rush to say that, despite frequent workouts, a good friend who is a champion workout partner, and regular sessions with the best physical therapist ever to enter the profession, everything still hurts. That turns out to be the way it works here where I sit, in my early 50s. Er, mid-50s. ItÆs the age of wear and tear, a time when rolling over in bed can strain a rotator cuff and friends and acquaintances begin to exchange some of their original joints for shiny new ones. That old song about how the hipbone is connected to the thighbone begins to have greater relevance after the hipbone has been lugging the thighbone around for half a century. The bones are a little more tired than they used to be, the muscles and ligaments around them are stretched out and they would all pretty much prefer to sit around watching TV together. Except that itÆs actually less painful in the long run to gather everyone up and take them all to the gym. Use it or lose it. So, over the past few months, IÆve made peace with the elbow and the hip and the shoulder blade, negotiating with the twinges to lift a few weights and trudge along on the elliptical on some kind of regular basis. My husband is less sanguine about his own aches and pains. At the moment, he is nursing a calf problem, one that has been going on for months. Nonetheless, he is perennially astonished to find that it hurts every time he gets on the treadmill. First he tried taking vitamins, convinced that with a little extra potassium, he would soon be ripping through seven-minute miles like a 20-year-old ¢ or maybe a 45-year-old with good nutrition. When that didnÆt alleviate the pain, he was forced to accept the need for physical therapy. His first day stunned him. ōThey were talking about my ankles,ö he reported. ōWhy were they talking about my ankles when my calf hurts?ö ōIsnÆt your calf connected to your ankle?ö I asked. ōBut my ankles donÆt hurt. And they want me to do this with a stick on my back.ö He got down on all fours on the den floor and did a sit back, sliding his body back toward his feet. He looked up at me quizzically. ōThatÆs really good for you,ö I said. ōFor my calf?ö Skeptical or not, he dutifully did as instructed for a couple of weeks. His calf improved. There was a new spring in his step. During one appointment, he had a calf massage and became even more converted to the new approach. Then one evening he came limping home. ōWhat happened?ö ōI played basketball at lunch,ö he said. ōI was just going to shoot, but then there were some guys ģö He trailed off. ōHow old were these guys?ö I asked. He ignored me. ōWhereÆs the foam roller?ö Order the Telegram & Gazette, delivered daily to your home or office! www.telegram.com/homedelivery Copyright Worcester Telegram & Gazette Corp. |
