I would like to see the JST connectors for these offered as a separate product. I know it is a three pin but I do not know other than that. Maybe there is a pigtail that could be offered.

Corals are solitary, free-living (except for juveniles), flat with a central mouth. Septa have large lobed teeth. Polyps are extended day and night and are the largest of all corals. They have long dark-purple or green tentacle with pale tips, very similar to those of giant anemones. The oral disc is striped and there is one mouth up to 30 mm wide. Abundance: commonly found on flat soft or rubble substrates, usually in reef lagoons. Very conspicuous. (Veron, 1986 <57>)

Thanks. Took it out in the sunlight this morning to look it over.....a couple of small patches that looked a little splochly, but overall it came out ok.....can't decide if left the blue on too long in places or if I just didn't get it as completely clean as I thought; but for the most part I'm happy with it.
UPDATE: Finished with everything on my .22. Re-blued the barrel, stripped and restained the stock, and, of course, cleaned, degreased and reoiled all parts while I had the barrel apart. Might, someday, replace the plastic stock extender with one made of the same walnut as the stock and will definately mount a scope on it in the next month or so.
Nicely done. Kudos.

I might be picking up a True TDD-1, and it has a tower with a single faucet. Is it terribly difficult to change out a tower on this or on commercial style kegerator in general?
Primary - Beer
Primary - More Beer
Secondary - Still More Beer
Kegged - Yet More Beer
Planning - A Bunch of Beer and some mead
I always forget to update this thing, so the above should in general hold true.
i changed out the single tap faucet on my beverage-air bm23 and installed a two tap faucet of about the same size. it was pretty simple and took only about 1/2 hour. remove screws holding stock tower, install new tower.
if you are lucky the new tower screw holes will coincide with the stock faucet, but i was not so fortunate. i had to utilze two (or three) of the stock holes, and had to drill new holes for the slightly larger faucet. it was not difficult....for me. YMMV!

These Prose Poetry Mom poems are examples of Prose Poetry poems about Mom. These are the best examples of Prose Poetry Mom poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
If you don't find the poem you want here, try our incredible, super duper, all-knowing, advanced poem search engine.
A heart that cries more than me
in my pain.
Whose congenial and benign teachings
make me sane.
A warm touch that dispels from me
the gales of worry.
Whose proximity ensures me that I'm
protected by her under furry.
A helping hand that always hold me
whenever I'm about to lose.
& my first teacher who makes me to
distinguish between donts' and dos'.
A voice and nothing more, an Angel
who is entirely mine just after my birth.
And she is none other but 'My Mother',
The God on Earth.
Although to define her in words is
beyond my skill.
Nevertheless I can say that her pace in
my life, none can fill.
She is the one who needs not a single
word of me to understand.
In my devastation, she is always there
to provide effusively her hand.
In the weariness of my life, with her,
I may lose to be in link.
But she ever remembers me whenever I
breathe or my eyes blink.
I can say that in search of heaven,
I needn't to go anywhere.
I would like to put my head in my
mother's lap, as its only there..
~The Ever Lasting Love Of A Child~
You live and still living through thee only love that can last a
whole life time between us,that same love we knew yesterday
when we were born remains with us today, tomorrow, and after
A love so deep that only you our mother can feel it,as it
Is an unconditional love that has no end,your giving,your
love that knows no boundaries,Its real we feel it in our depth
daily when you are not surrounding us,Its for good,Its not an
illusion mom,because Its pure.
A love which transforms our shadows to experience the
need to stay alive,your existence in our lives will never
fade away,our respect,our missing you allows our tears
to leave traces on our cushions during the night.
That instant love of the moment when we were born Is an
everlasting love,we feel it,our loneliness vanishes,memories
do not seem far away,that reality will always remain in
process of becoming even when aging.
A love without pain this is what you made us feel,a love that
cries out loud even be heard with the rumbling of thunder.
That same love can be felt between electric wires,our phoning
you everyday,its so full of truth so beautiful it feels like
a spiritual love, our beloved mom.
Seconds never pass unaccounted for,you even wipe away
our clouded eyes,that kind of love mom can even predict
our happiness no matter what the outcome of our
coming years would bring.
That same love has so much emotions it illuminates our souls,
its untouchable,immeasurable,unforgettable,it is a reason
for our existence,your love cures our pain even when
too much time has passed away.
Mom, we both your sons will love you,forever an everlasting love.
Sorry Mum we couldn't be with you in person, but our heart
cries out for you, Happy Mothers Day. Your Sons.
Contest for PD. Happy Mothers Day
13/5/2013 (Win No. 8)
I love you with all my heart we will never be worlds apart
If by chance you went away
Please just trust in what i say
Your in my heart each and everyday
My love for you will always stay and it will never sway
Even if time stood still my love for you never will
You are my hero I must admit and that I will not forget
You held my hand when I was in pain and it was not in vein
I could not ask for more
Your the reason I was born...
Today was the big day! I bought a scratch-off ticket two days ago and won $25,000.00! Can
you imagine that? Me, a lonely unemployed nobody, strikes it rich. Yee-Hah! So, I'm off to the
lottery collections agency to cash in my lucky windfall. The polite gentleman handed me
the necessary forms. I feverishly completed them and within 36 minutes was awarded my
check. Wow! Me, a single, unrecognized nobody, is clutching a mild fortune.
"Zippety-Do-Dah!" Whistling a happy tune, I venture home. Three blocks before reaching my
domicile, I spotted a young lad on the corner of Clark Street and 9th Avenue. He was
sitting on the cold concrete playing with an energetic puppy - yet, he was crying. "Hey,
kid, that's a beautiful puppy you've got." The young boy looked up at me and stammered:
"He's not my puppy, Mister. I found him here in the street a little while ago. The doggie
has no home." My heart skipped two beats. "Where do you live, son?" The tearful boy
crooked his head towards a dilapidated house two lots away from the corner of Clark
Street. I didn't think anyone lived there. I paused for a second and then:
"Hey, Mister? Do you have an extra quarter?" I was speechless for a moment.
"Excuse me, Mister...um, do you have a dime or a quarter? I have two quarters in my pocket.
If I get one more I can buy the puppy a can of dog food at the corner store." Containing a smile,
I lost my breath. I regained my wits and asked: "Would your Mom and Dad approve of you
having a puppy?" The young lad kept his head down and replied: "Well, my Dad is dead.
But I know my Mom would like this puppy. It's just that my Mom can't walk and, um...
I take care of her and, um...we really wouldn't have enough money to take
care of a dog, anyways." My heart was breaking. "What's your name son?"
I didn't understand who's tears I was envisioning - his or mine.
"Charlie, Mister." "My name's, Charlie."
(SEE Part 2 OF THE STORY FOR THE ENDING...)
For: Carol Brown
I Hepled The Needy contest
(This is Part I of the story)
Dedicated to my mother who, in my youth, I did not fully understand..
I wish my callings be sweet to thee;
Abate not Oh lady the tenderness I'd missed
Prolong thy tenderness and never a dreary;
Your genteel should I suck from thy breast.
From being a toddler remember I;
That not so often I heard thy lullaby.
And thence I asked Oh whence I came?
I sought for answer; I didn't think 'twas fine.
Then years rolled by I attended school;
Why art thou the source of my ridicule?
The boys would laugh by what thou hinted;
That I didn't fit a sport; I couldn't hit a target.
It confused me much – yeah it hurt me badly
The way thou saw me was never comely.
Mama! Oh mama! I beseech thee
Tell me the truth in anyway thou tell me
Thou needest not to be subtle in telling the truth
Let it be that I can have peace in my youth.
The future is waiting and thither I goest
Wish me luck; I don't want to be the lowest.
Oh Mama, Willful as thou art, bestow in me some courage
That even in my lowliness, I can live my life the fullest…
Date & Time of Writing:
October 4, 1988
12:03am - 10:10am
Seven years I've been waiting for
A Christmas with you I wish for
Just like the other years that passed by
My wish for Christmas never gone by
A thought bothered my mind
How do you feel fine?
How do I feel fine?
If it breaks your soul it breaks mine.
Everything you have to sacrifice
A tear drops in your eyes
I wish I could make it dry
But I too can't stop myself to cry
I hope he will grant my wish
If not now, maybe next year
I would still be waiting here
The same wish that I wished.
I come over home schoolers house
He looks me up and down
am no looker
But the boy's looking
"So am suppose to help you out or somein?"
I nod without a word
He grins like satan
And im burning up in hell
"So hows it like being home schooled?"
He looks at me,use to the question and knowing the answer by heart
"Ive got free food"
And i laugh,he throws butterflies in my stomach
He sits me down
and he bends down for my bag
And looks up
I seductively say:Are you high?
He nodds
And i gap
He replies:High in 7th heaven
And takes my hand
The next thing i know im trying to get on his lap
But that chairs in the way
He flicks the chair
And he carries me easily onto the couch
But before i could get his lips
He collides onto the ground
his mom staring at us wildly
No more crazy fun for us
He looks at me with a frown
"Sometimes,i wish my mom would leave off school grounds"
***Humour and lips are a great combo=) ***
For a missing friend Booboo who knows awwe to well
When you left us
The window was open
There was a single star in the sky
Wind was breathless
A sudden cry ripped the darkness
That night was a book's last page
Frayed by time and solitude
A lamp was burning in the corner
To thicken the whispers of coming souls
We were speechless
Touching my mother's feet
Lean and wilted
By thousand years 'march.
September, the cruelest
You did not know the weight of pain
One's heart endeared
And cried in a land
Islanded by silence.
My mom and dad bought a necklace for me from
Scottland. It is sterling silver with a pendant and in the
middle of it is my birthstone. A purple Amathyst stone.
I wear it all the time and never take it off, because I love it
so much and it is a gift from somewhere I have never been
to before. If I get to go there someday, I have no clue.
This necklace is my favorite one also because it is chosen
for me, with love. I hope it never gets lost or broken, or I will
be very upset. As pretty as a sunshine on me and as bright as a
star shining at nighttime out in the still beauty of the background.
I believe it means alot to me to keep me calm and to remember
My mom and dad, all of our good times together, as a family.
They are getting older in age , and sometime we need to
think about how much time we are spending with them.
You mean so much to me, more then you'll ever know.
More then ill ever be able to describe.
But I'll try.
Voice of a angel, touch ever so soft you would think its a feather.
Eyes so beautiful seeing them on a sunset day, medusa stare ever so hypnotizing locking eyes can't look away.
Baby in the tummy, heart just started beating giving me a rush that I really needed.
Love so old I feel defeated.
Even though I do everything for you, I'm looking out for me just keeping a close over view upon you.
How can I fix your life if mine isn't alright, but i don't know where id ever be with out you by my side.
And I thought I'd never know but as of now I'm pushing through.
Now that your gone, I miss you every night.
But I gotta be strong.
Cause if not you'll be gone and ill be with a baby missing its mom.
I will always recall the day
my mom died.
She was in recovery for
congestive heart surgery.
The work itself had gone well
but brought on massive clots
to the lungs.
I was an hour and a half away
and when I arrived,
Mom was talking to the doctor.
He had tears in his eyes,
apologizing for getting hopes up
where there was no hope now.
She looked him straight in the eye
and told him that she didn't want to die.
But, if the Lord was ready
the doctor didn't need to cry.
"I know you did everything in your power
to make me well", she said. "So don't you feel bad,
don't apologize for trying to help me.
God is the one to have the final say.
I will resist going until my absolutely final breath.
Because, I think that is what he expects of me.
When I know it's time I will be with him."
The doctor left, I don't know if he felt better.
Probably not. He had promised her five more years.
I stayed and talked to mom for a while,
before my brother came back in.
"Now Bunky, you know your brothers
are not as strong as you.
You will have to help them through this.
That is what I know you will do."
I said "yes Momma,"
no longer fighting the wetness profusely rolling down my cheeks.
"Where's Carolyn" she said of my wife.
"I called her and she is on the way shortly.
She will get here as soon as she can."
My brother came back in
and I went out to the doctor again.
He said her lungs were completely clogged
and she would slowly suffocate.
But, it would be painless because she could breathe.
She just couldn't process the air.
She would simply go to sleep.
And that is the way the next four hours went,
with Mom going little by little.
She napped,
and woke up once in a while
to ask about my younger brother
and his wife and my wife.
Telling all how much she loved them.
She slept a little longer each
time she closed her eyes
and finally the only one not
there was my wife.
We thought a couple of times she had passed.
But the nurse said she just wouldn't give up.
She sunk so low they couldn't find a pulse
or read blood pressure.
I don't remember how they knew she was not gone.
Finally just before my wife
came in they actually didn't know
if she was still alive.
My wife came in and Mom spoke.
"Carolyn, Carolyn", very weakly and
they talked softly for a while and Mom died.
She had held on beyond a readable pulse.
Beyond blood pressure.
To tell my wife good bye.
In the full view of things
people will always be harsh
People will always be stuck up
Nobody will ever try to help
Whenever I cry for someone to help
Nobody comes....
Sometimes I think I am not crying loud enough to hear
But then I relize,
They only pretend not to hear
He tells me he cares
But I know he lies
He ALWAYS lies....
No matter how hard I try
No matter what I do
He still is not satisfied
He and his frankinstine bride
Be forwarned... the tale about step mothers.... is true.
They always lie....
They think I am insane
So they send me to this person
She calls herself a consoler... haha.....
She doesn't have a clue
She lies, she knows nothing of privet thoughts, and should not be called a counsoler.
What do they know any way....
My mind is my mind
No one elses to invade
But if you're brave enough to try
Good luck getting out... well ...you could say the same
My mind is always busy
I can't remember a time when I wasn't thinking
About the past
About things I could have said or done
Or about the future I wish could be true
I don't know who to trust..... except for one........
My mom
My sweet and loveing mother
She is my everything
I love and trust her
More than I can say
I trust her I love her....
My mom knows me better than anyone I know
She knows my fears, dreams, and hopes
She loves me
She trust me
She is the one who helped me when no one would
I hate him......
The man poseing as a father
The man who was never there for me
The person I want to be the farthest away from
I am forced to live with
By a boges court
Full of hypocrits and morons
Why should they get to pick.......
They tell me where I get to go
They tell me I don't know
OH but I do
I know more than they could possibly dream of knowing
Seven years I had been hideing
Seven years I have known
He is a heartless monster
I was there.....
All they had was papers
I wasn't even aloud in the room
I had all the proff they needed
Seven years of experence
But it didn't matter
One day we will be home with our mother where we belong.

A few moments with Andy (Rooney) that is
... now, having gone through all that. I like to think my girls are better off too.
Another recurring thought I had in Cocoa, because of my experiences there, was how remarkably resilient older women are. We spent a lot of time with cousins Maureen,Nora and Joan the liveliest octogenarians I have ever met. These ladies make some of our younger friends seem old. Maureen, the oldest - closer to 90 than 80 scurried around all day helping other ...
St. Augustine, FL
We found the beach! Finally, after driving for days, we reached St. Augustine and our hotel on St. Augustine beach. Actually, we stayed on Anastasia Island, a barrier island just off the coast of St Augustine, the oldest town in the US. As you can see in our pictures, it's a beautiful, wide beach covered with tiny, tiny sea shells. Since it's January, the water is much too cold for me to swim but we watched the surfers in ...
To Parana, Argentina in 26 Hours
... I'll be updating this blog as often as possible and suspect I'll be writing more after leaving Parana and am traveling solo. There's plenty to talk about but will try not to bore you all. If you want to hear more about anything or see more pictures, I'll be happy to bore you on a one on one basis when I get back :) Thats all for now; I'm planning to write again in the new year before I leave Parana for BA. 12/31 Happy New Year's ...
The summer of 2014 at Riverfront Campground
... Last weekend there Cajun cooked up some fried gator tail, gator ribs and gator jambalaya. MMMM MMMM GOOD!!! Once again everybody made dishes and we turned it into a party.
Some of the pictures attached were from cindy and eds dock (most of the fishing ones) which we are thankful to for letting us fish off of. Theres a lot of mixed pics hope you enjoy them.
The week before the 'real' travelling begins!
... s amazing what rubbish you can watch when you're not at work) and food, food, followed by more food. We were totally spoilt with a week of indulgence. This was pretty much your 'standard' holiday, all of your comforts around you and more. Very enjoyable and relaxing indeed, it was pretty hard to pull away. The drive back to Miami was a mini Spanish lesson, my brother reciting the numbers better than me, what the hell am I doing?! We board the plane, anxious with what lies ...

Hiking Caherconree on Sunday with Annascaul Walks.
Outside Dan Foleys Pub
Annascaul Walks hillwalking club, Co Kerry
Annascaul walks is a small friendly walking club in the heart of the Dingle Peninsula, where brooding mountains, stunning coastlines and fast flowing rivers provide magnificent year round walking. The club embodies the adventurous spirit the friendly humour and the co-operative nature of Annascaul's famous son, Tom Crean the antarctic explorer.
The club holds two scheduled walks each Sunday, meeting at Hanafins bar on the main street. We extend a warm welcome to individuals and clubs of all ages and abilities to join us on one of our walks or to follow one of the many trailed walks in the area.
For more details on the walks, plenty of photos or to join, check out the website.
Inch Beach
Inch Beach by night
Inch Beach is one of the most picturesque beaches on the Dingle Peninsula in Co.Kerry and is a really beautifull place to learn to surf. It is a blue flag beach that runs literally for miles. Three miles of sandy beach, for bathing, surfing, sea angling. Inch Strand was chosen by David Lean as the beach location for "Ryan's Daughter". The film "Playboy of the Western World" was shot entirely at Inch.
Inch is roughly 30 minutes from both Dingle and Killarney and 45 mins from Tralee, But more importantly only a 5 minute drive from Annascaul.
Slea Head Drive
We always tell people the best time to drive to Slea head is in the evening. This is so for a few reasons. The traffic is quieter (very little coaches and heavy vehicles. Also the long Irish summer evenings (Its bright up until about 10 most evenings these days). Watching the sun set on Dunquin pier is just magic.

Long fascinated by primates, Jay Schwartz '12 conducted undergraduate research with macaques as a Minnesota Zoo intern. Now he's at Ohio State University studying how baboons communicate stress, examining the relationship between stress hormone levels and vocal characteristics. The results can be used to improve the conditions of primates in captivity by minimizing their stress.
Says Schwartz, "At Mac I learned how to think critically and see what scholars in the scientific literature are missing. That really helps you propose a project that fills a niche big enough to get support from programs like the NSF GRFP. Mac also gave me an academic background diverse and versatile enough that I could major in biology and end up in an anthropology graduate program."
Schwartz is one of six Macalester alumni chosen by the National Science Foundation to receive NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program awards. The coveted GRFP provides three years of financial support for graduate study—a $32,000 stipend each year as well as a $12,000 cost-of-education allowance to the graduate institution.
In her research at Duke University, Dianna Amasino '13 is exploring how neuroscience can inform our understanding of the roles of identity and social incentives in economic decision-making. She credits supportive Mac faculty with enabling her to study both neuroscience and economics, which positioned her for her current collaboration.
Elijah Bernstein-Cooper '13 is studying astronomy and astrophysics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he will use radio and infrared observations to investigate how atomic hydrogen gas transitions to molecular hydrogen gas—an essential ingredient in forming stars. "The opportunities to conduct independent research at Macalester were numerous and priceless," says Bernstein-Cooper, who did several terms of research with his advisor, physics and astronomy Professor John Cannon. He adds that the Science and Research Office, especially director Joan Toohey, "provided invaluable support for travel to conferences and multiple world-class telescopes."
In his work at SUNY–Stony Brook, Micah Mumper '13 is investigating the psycholinguistics of reading, specifically how memory representations are updated and how time influences that updating process. His work is inspired by the psycholinguistics work of his mentor, psychology Professor Brooke Lea.
At the University of Colorado–Boulder, Allison Reed-Harris '10 focuses on the physical and chemical properties of the air-water interface and their implications for formation and growth of atmospheric aerosols. She credits her advisors, Professors Chad Topaz, Thomas Varberg, and Paul Fischer, "who instilled in me a passion for chemical research that makes my career exciting and rewarding."
Hallie Boyer '08 is exploring thermodynamic modeling of atmospheric aerosols and multiphase flows through the University of Minnesota's mechanical engineering program.
Five additional Macalester alumni received honorable mentions: Anne Virnig '09, Kacper Skakuj '14, Willem Laursen '11, Rachel Diamond '11, and Katherine Clifford '09.

One of the strongest Reignacs from proprietor Yves Vatelot, in 2009 this over-achieving estate has turned out a modern-styled Bordeaux with a viscous texture and notes of coffee bean, black currants, earth and vanillin in a delicious, front end-loaded, yet surprisingly deep, textured, full-bodied wine. It should drink nicely for 5-6 years, possibly even longer, although I am always skeptical of a generic Bordeaux that lasts much longer than a decade.

Direct, with toasted vanilla framing a core of blackberry, cherry preserve and dark plum fruit. Vanilla edge lingers through the medium-weight finish. Drink now through 2013.

Who does work around a pool (coping, fence, deck, etc.)?
Howdy again!
We have had an old irregular shaped pool for a little over a year now. Last year we had the plaster and some plumbing redone but not the tile or coping or decking. Some bits were replaced due to the plumbing but most of it is in need of replacement.
We'd like to do a bunch of concrete work in our yard including around the pool and the pool coping. I also want to put in a nicer fence than the one I had slapped on before moving in with my little kids. Can I expect a pool rehabber to do all this stuff or do I need multiple contractors?
(I don't want to use the guy I used last year because, well, he was terrible.)
The contractor for our pool refinish also would have done the concrete decking if we had chosen to replace ours. They gave us a quote for replacing the decking. Their website says they do built in bbq's, fire features and hardscaping. It looks like they will do pretty much any concrete or stone work that is wanted.
I don't know whether they would do a pool fence and that might depend on the type of fencing. Since code around here requires that pools be fenced, I would expect that they at least would be able to refer you to fence contractors that they have worked with.

Global Financial Regulation: The Essential Guide
As international financial markets have become more complex, so has the regulatory system which oversees them. The Basel Committee is just one of a plethora of international bodies and groupings which now set standards for financial activity around the world, in the interests of investor protection and financial stability. These groupings, and their decisions, have a major impact on markets in developed and developing countries, and on competition between financial firms. Yet their workings are

The Lebanese Elections and Middle Eastern Democracy
From military intervention in Iraq, to supporting an uprising in Lebanon, forcing elections in the Palestinian Territories and imposing international isolation on Syria, the world has tried several scenarios to spread democracy in Middle Eastern countries. In light of the Lebanese elections on June 7, Hussain Abdul-Hussain will explore the status of democracy in the Middle East as well as look at broader impact of these elections on the regional balance of power between Iran and the US.

Is America in Decline?
The rise of China and the global economic crisis have led many observers to speculate about whether the decline of American power, often predicted in the past, has now finally begun. The picture is more complex; a survey of world conditions suggests that while the American role is changing, the U.S. will continue to be a unique force in the international arena.
The Spectre at the Feast: Capitalist Crisis and the Politics of Recession
Professor Andrew Gamble made his early reputation writing on British decline, the theory of Marxism and the rise and fall of that long-debated and most controversial political phenomenon in Britain: Margaret Thatcher and 'Thatcherism'. One of the most incisive analysts of British politics with over twenty books - and a raft of prizes to his name - he reflects here on the deeper causes of the current world economic crisis and why the crisis has been especially acute in the Anglo-American world.

Studying Islam across times and place: how to compare?
We discuss `Studying Islam across times and place: how to compare?' and this time we subject 'Islam' to an analytical discussion. The anthropological approach advocated here focuses on processes by which Muslims refer back to an Islamic tradition, and employ those references to explain and change the social world. Current debates in Aceh (Indonesia) about how to understand sharî`a provide an initial case study; these debates are then shown to be quite similar to some underway in Western Europe.
Meeting Development Challenges in the 21st Century
In recent times, the challenges of the developing world have been compounded by multiple crises: the food and fuel crises, the global recession, and devastating natural disasters. There is also the huge climate challenge. How can the international community move the development agenda forward, and stay focused on achieving the Millennium Development Goals by 2015?

Let's put it this way: social media and security don't work together very well today. Marketing professionals who see social media as a vital communication channel view security as a nuisance, whereas Security pros view services like Facebook and Twitter as trivial pastimes that expose the business to enormous risk. The problem is, when it comes to social media, these two facets of the organization need to come to terms with each other – and this was clearly on display Tuesday when the Dow Jones briefly plummeted over 100 points due to false Tweets from AP's hacked Twitter accounts that indicated President Obama had been injured by explosions at the White House.
This recent breach signifies two things: 1) the potentially damaging impact of social media is real and growing, and 2) companies today aren't doing enough to mitigate the risks.
As social media becomes a legitimate source of news and information, the implications for inaccurate or inappropriate behavior continue to grow. Damaging or disparaging comments on Twitter (whether intended or not), can have a real impact on your business and the way customers view your company and brand. Companies need to do more to protect their organization from social media risk because:

Well, we just saw Samsung launch its latest ubergizmo with tons of interesting features, like pause video playback at the blink of the eye. However, there is an important hardware feature of the Samsung Galaxy S4 to note here: finally a Near Field Communications (NFC) chip is embedded in the device (something that Apple left out of the iPhone 5), making it useful for mobile payments, building access control, and lots of other security uses. Issuers, payment services providers and trusted services managers have long been dreaming of mobile phones with NFC chips: not having to send plastic credit cards with EMV chips (or magstripes in the US) but being able to personalize the credit card right on the phone reduces card management costs, improves end user satisfaction. There is nothing new here. But here's where NFC finally in a mainstream mobile phone can revolutionize fraud management:
1) GPS verification. So if you use it to make a card present transaction by touching your phone NFC credit card to a PayPass or other proximity based credit card reader, the payment authorization platform can immediately know where you are, correlate it with the riskiness of the location (country) and use your location to build a risk score.
2) More factors and better capabilities for payment authentication. Instead or in addition to asking for a PIN code for transaction authentication, the payment processor can contact your registered phone and - based on risk - can ask for a PIN code signature, or secondary authentication like facial recognition or biometric retina vein recognition to authorize a higher value transaction.
3) Linking the NFC chip to an eWallet. This will be easier than ever before. If the NFC chip is initialized to be a credit card, the eWallet application can check for the presence of it and maybe even use it in a card present transaction.

"Enterprise rights management? What does that even mean?! You're using security speak!" exclaimed my colleague TJ Keitt.
TJ sits on a research team serving CIOs, and covers collaboration software. We were having a discussion around collaboration software and data security considerations for collaboration. "Security speak" got in the way. It wasn't the first time, and it will likely not be the last, but it is a good reminder to remember to communicate clearly using non security speak – and not just to fellow S&R pros, but to the rest of the business (in this case – the CIO) – to talk about what we really mean. That's how collaboration starts.
Collaboration is also not just about S&R pros engaging the rest of the business to bring them into the security-minded fold, but to also listen and be aware of what's bubbling up in other parts of the organization as it can have implications for security too. One of the more interesting examples that I see today come from the marketing side of the business, specifically those involved with strategies for customer experience and digital marketing. Mobile is huge (no surprise, right?), and is transforming how companies interact with customers. The future of mobile is all about context: 1) situation, 2) preferences, and 3) attitudes.

I was very excited to finally get a copy of the much-anticipated 2013 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR.) I have found the report to be valuable year after year. This is the 6th iteration and this year's report includes 621 confirmed data breaches, as well as over 47,000 reported security incidents. 18 organizations from across the globe contributed to the report this year. The full report is 63 pages, and I have to say that Wade Baker and company did a great job making it an enjoyable read. I enjoyed the tone, and I found myself laughing several times as I read through it (Laughing and infosec aren't commonly said in the same breath.) There are tons of great references as well, ranging from NASCAR, to Biggie Smalls, the Violent Femmes and more. The mantra of this year's report is "Understand Your Adversary' is Critical to Effective Defense and Response." Here are a few observations:
The focus on the adversary answers customer questions. Who is the adversary? This is a frequent question from Forrester clients. The Mandiant APT1 report stirred up much debate on state sponsored actors and Verizon's data and analysis gives us more perspective on this class of threat actor. The first table in the report profiles the threat actors that are targeting organizations. It provides a high level view that I suggest you include in any type of executive engagement activity you participate in. This 3rd party snapshot of the threat actors should resonate with a wide degree of audiences.

After RSA's acquisition of SilverTail, things are heating up in mobile application level behavioral detection.
We see fraud management vendors increasingly looking at mobile application behaviors (beyond web fraud management and device fingerprinting) to build out a normal and abnormal behavior profile for the network traffic signatures coming out of the application (similarly to how SilverTail/RSA looks at web traffic signatures). Note that this is clearly a grey area that falls between what device fingerprinting vendors (iovation, 41st Parameter, BlueCava, ThreatMetrix), or risk-based authentication (RBA) vendors (RSA, Entrust, CA/Arcot, etc.) or what traditional back-end, cross-channel transaction monitoring vendors (Actimize, ACI, Detica, SAS, etc.) have been doing. Although device fingerprinting and RBA vendors have long been providing SDKs and APIs for developers to include in their mobile applications, understanding mobile application network traffic and building good and bad behavioral models is becoming something people are increasingly interested in.
Mobile application behavior detection has the benefits of not having to open up application code, not having to define too many security policies or rules. Because of this, mobile application behavior detection and network traffic signature profiling is something we expect to see a lot of vendor interest in the next 9-12 months.

"My master made me this collar. He is a good and smart master and he made me this collar so that I may speak. Squirrel!"
In the Pixar film Up, squirrels frequently distract Dug the talking dog. In our space, we are frequently distracted by technology. "I am a good and smart security professional; I must protect my enterprise so that we are secure. APT defense in a box!"
The expo floors at industry events such as the RSA Conference and Blackhat contribute to this. Signage touts the next great piece of technology that will solve all of our security problems. We allow Big Data, security analytics, threat intelligence, and APT defense in a box to distract us. It is easy to do; there is no shortage of challenges for today's security and risk professional. The threat landscape is overwhelming. We have problems recruiting and retaining the right staff. Day-to-day operational duties take up too much time. Our environments are complex, and we struggle to get the appropriate budget.
These "security technology du jour" solutions are very appetizing. They compel us much like IDS, IPS, and SIM did in the past. We want and need the "easy" button. Sadly, there is no "easy" button and we must understand that threat protection doesn't equal a product or service; there is no single solution. Technology alone isn't the answer we are looking for.

Stephanie Balaouras and I published a report last week on the current state of crisis communications, and one thing is clear: most companies are not ready to invoke their crisis communications plan.
We analyzed data from our recent 2012 Forrester/Disaster Recovery Journal (DRJ) joint online study, which surveyed 115 business continuity decision-makers about their organizations' crisis communications strategies. The results were disconcerting. Despite roughly half of organizations having invoked their business continuity plan in the past five years, only 15% said their crisis communication efforts were very effective.
Recent events such as Hurricane Sandy and the Sandy Hook school shooting illustrate the damaging, and often tragic, impact crises can have on organizations and the broader community. In fact, Hurricane Sandy was the second costliest in US history. Yet, most organizations are not prepared to manage an effective response to such a crisis. We found that crisis communication programs routinely underperform because:

When I talk to security (S&R) leaders, they always tell me that in an ideal world, they would have enough advanced warning of impending business and technology disruptions in order to understand the security, privacy and overall risk implications and then prepare and present their business executives with a balanced opinion about how best to proceed if and when the enterprise decides to move forward. Unfortunately, most often, business and IT colleagues move on these disruptions and technology shifts far in advance of the security team's readiness, and we don't have to look far for examples; just think of employee BYOD, mobile apps for customer engagement, cloud services, social technology for marketing and collaboration, massive big data projects for business intelligence, or virtual and converged infrastructures within the data center.

A couple of months back, I advocated killing your password policies and applying some other techniques instead to make existing use of passwords more effective (including my hobby horse: take the user-experience sting out of rotating ordinary static passwords by pushing them out to users on an alternate channel, à la activation codes and other OTPs). But adding factors is still a great idea, and the barriers to doing so are falling fast.

CEG & Nolafunk Presents:
Marco Benevento w/ special guests Cuddle Magic and Arjun
The Cutting Room
44 E. 32nd St.
New York, NY, 10016
Doors 6:00 PM / Show 7:00 PM
For more than a decade pianist/sound-sculptor/songwriter Marco Benevento has been amassing an extensive resume of composition and collaboration. His studio albums have set forth a vision that connects the dots between Explosions In The Sky and Tortoise on one side, Brian Eno and Brad Mehldau on the other, while in the live setting his performances reverberate with pulsating dance rock energy. The 34-year old artist takes the next step forward in this evolution with his latest album, TigerFace, on which he paints his songs in a myriad of sonic colors, shimmering with acoustic piano, synths and analog keyboards. The tunes themselves seemingly conceptualized from every melody, hook and cadence that's ever tickled his ear. Recorded and mixed by Tom Biller (Silversun Pickups, Fiona Apple) and Bryce Goggin (Pavement, Akron/Family), TigerFace features a stellar cast of musicians recruited to help capture his ideas, including drummers Matt Chamberlain (Bill Frisell, Pearl Jam), John McEntire (Tortoise, The Sea & The Cake) and Andrew Barr (The Barr Brothers), bassists Dave Dreiwitz (Ween), Reed Mathis (Tea Leaf Green) and Mike Gordon (Phish), violinist Ali Helnwein (Traction Avenue Chamber Orchestra) and saxophonist Stuart Bogie (Antibalas, Superhuman Happiness). For the first time, Benevento presents vocals, inviting Kalmia Traver (Rubblebucket) to sing on the infectious dance rock rave-up "Limbs Of A Pine" and the pastoral psych rock meditation "This Is How It Goes." Other standouts include the angelic Arcade Fire meets The Flaming Lips anthem "Eagle Rock," the soaring garage psychedelia of "Going West," the piano riff rock jaunt "Escape Horse," and the happily lilting "Fireworks." As anybody who's seen Benevento perform live can attest, the pianist is a satellite to the muse with eyes closed, smile wide across his face and fingers free-flowing across the keys. Indeed, TigerFace, is the commitment to this pursuit; a record that rides the yes-wave and in the process becomes a soundtrack for fellow travelers chasing the horizon.

Signs near schools good news for kids' safety
But one official would like even more done
If you decree it, will they slow down?
You've seen the veiled signs being erected all over Winnipeg, near 171 elementary schools.
Once school starts in September, the maximum speed will be 30 kilometres per hour from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
"What took us so long to get here?" sighed Keith Thomas, risk manager for the Manitoba School Boards Association.
We're finally getting school-safety measures that places such as Regina and Grand Forks have had for years, Thomas said Thursday.
The reduced-speed zones around schools cover up to 150 metres from the edge of the property, which includes fields and playgrounds. There will be signs warning a reduced-speed zone is ahead, signs saying you're entering the zone and signs saying you're leaving the zone.
-- Keith Thomas, risk manager for the Manitoba School Boards Association, on the school speed signs (below)
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign...
No, not everywhere, lamented Thomas.
Some elementary schools are on regional roads that won't be signed, and some already have traffic-calming measures, such as a four-way stop.
Thomas said he went by Inkster School, Marion School, Stanley Knowles School, École Taché and Edmund Partridge School Thursday without seeing a veiled sign anywhere. "What about middle schools and high schools?" asked Thomas.
"Accept the fact our high schoolers are going to be careless. We've seen high schoolers do crazy things," he said.
Thomas said 30 km/h might not work for high schools on busy streets, but he'd like to see at least a 40 km/h zone around high schools, whether on side streets or main roadways.
"Look at Glenlawn, a very busy location" at St. Mary's Road and Fermor Avenue, he pointed out. Grant Park, Shaftesbury and St. Paul's high schools are on Grant Avenue, Kelvin High School is on busy Academy at Stafford, St. James Collegiate is on Portage Avenue, said Thomas.
"I would look to see no more than 40 km/h," he said, and that includes both directions even if there's a median.
Why stop at weekdays during the school year? asked Thomas, who pointed out kids use school playgrounds 12 months a year, evenings included, and daycares operate in some schools during the summer.
"Would it be a good idea to say the speed limit exists all the time?" he asked.
Thomas hopes the police will be enforcing the limits once school opens.
Just because there are signs doesn't mean people will obey them, he said. Each fall, MSBA co-operates with police and CAA Manitoba to stake out three schools.
Seven Oaks School Division superintendent Brian O'Leary said he is happy with the city's plans and received good explanations for every concern he's raised.
O'Leary learned schools surrounded by stop signs won't be signed, since traffic will be slowing down to a stop anyway.
"The bylaw is a help -- we still have to do things," O'Leary said. The reduced speeds will lessen the risk for school patrols, typically grades 5 and 6 students helping children cross streets before and after school, but schools must still be vigilant about improving safety wherever possible, he said.
"I would hope the city has some enforcement and awareness measures planned," O'Leary said.
Thomas said where school patrols are stationed are the principal's responsibility, and many schools have stationed patrols at six intersections or more.
"It will absolutely be a benefit for them," said Winnipeg Police Service Patrol Sgt. Sean Pollock, who heads a team of six police officers who work with students on school safety patrols.
"It's certainly a great step; it's a very significant reduction, obviously, that reduces stopping distances," Pollock said.

I agree with Celia

I agree with Celia. I have a catalyst 100 and it is great for day paddling because it is so stable but, the rear hatch has limited space in a dry bag and the front hatch (which I put my wallet and car keys in). I am going car camping next weekend and I am bringing my catalyst for some friends to experience paddling. I use my 17 foot touring kayak for island/river camping.
