- For my tape manis, all I use is regular stationery tape. But you might prefer something else, so just experiment with different sorts of tape to figure out what works best for you.
- For your base color you can use any polish you like, however one-coaters will allow you to place the tape much sooner because those are usually fast drying. Of course you can also quicken the drying of polishes that require several coats to cover, by applying a fast drying topcoat. (I use Seche Vite).
- Your layering color(s) can be either a one- or two-coater. Because you've already applied a base color, most polishes that usually take two coats to cover now will do with one.
- You might want to leave the cut strips somewhere else than the edge of your desk/table, to prevent them from getting stuck to the surface while you're busy. You do not want to have to peel them off with your freshly painted claws!
- Apply your layering color in one thin (but opaque) coat, this will create crisper lines.
- When you're removing the tape strips, try to remove them individually, if you can, because most of the time your design will come out neater this way
- Using tweezers to remove the tape strips can prevent your freshly painted nails from getting smudged.
- It's not always necessary to start all over if you've messed up your design, often a little touch-up with a nailart brush can solve the problem.
- If you want to use a matt topcoat, use a regular one underneath. My experience with matt topcoats is that they smudge the design very easily, even when it's completely dry. Applying a normal topcoat first will prevent that.
- Moisterize your skin afterwards, because the tape can really dry it out!
- You can practice this tutorial on your old mani that you applied a day (or more) before. That way it's certain that the base color is dry.
- Have fun and practice makes perfect ;)

Tutorial: Vertical Lightning Bolt
Hello everyone! Welcome to my vertical lightning bolt tutorial! You may have already tried its siblings the lightning bolt French or double lightning bolt, if you like those but want to step it up a notch, then this fellow is the right thing. It involves more individual tape strips and precision than the previously mentioned designs, so using it on an accent nail only is recommended if you don't have too much time. But if you enjoy the process as much as the end result, such as myself, why not go all the way for a special occasion? Let's begin!
Start by cutting the tape strips. You'll need two triangular pieces and two straight strips. I make them by taking of a little piece (±1inch/2,5cm) off the roll first which I cut in half diagonally for the triangles, or lengthwise for the straight strips.
Please note that I only use the black tape you see for the pictures of this tutorial. Normally I use regular stationery tape. The translucency can be a great advantage in some cases, but for pictures it makes the tape harder to see.
Apply your basecolor and leave it to dry. The polish must be absolutely dry before starting with step 3, so you may want to use a coat of quickdrying topcoat to speed things up. (I personally like Seche Vite.)
Now it's time to place the tape strips. To maintain the ratio of the lightning bolt each time, I always place the four strips in strict positions in the following way:
- First I place a straight strip on the surface. It starts at the upper left corner and goes down to the middle of the tip.
- Then I put a triangle on top, with one acute corner pointing upwards and also going down to the middle of the tip
- The second triangle goes at the top, with the acute corner pointing down, just without facing the first triangle
- And at last I complete the shape with the second straight piece, starting at the upper right corner of the nail and meeting the first triangle at the bottom for the pointy tail of the lightning bolt
If the strips are in the right position, carefully apply your layering polish with a thin coat and remove the strips right away.
Finish with topcoat and your lightning bolt is done! Prepare to hear a lot of "HARRY POTTER!". ;-)
Finally some useful tips:
I would absolutely love to see your attempt on my design, so feel free to leave a link to your creation in the comment section!
Polishes I used in this post are Essence Sending You Kisses and Essence Romeo.
Accent nails,
All tape manis,
Lightning bolt,

Nationals Park, shortly after a monster storm rolled through tonight.
It's mostly gone unnoticed because the Nationals have lost far more games than they've won over the last month, but this club's bullpen continues to be among the best in baseball.
Check out these ERAs for Washington's relievers in June…
Tyler Clippard: 0.90
Sean Burnett: 1.35
Tyler Walker: 2.08
Drew Storen: 2.53
Matt Capps: 3.38
Miguel Batista: 3.86
Doug Slaten: 5.79
Pretty impressive. For the season, the Nationals' bullpen owns a 3.45 ERA. That's fourth-best in the NL, seventh-best in the majors. Again, pretty impressive.
Tonight, the club will pay homage to the two guys who have been pitching the eighth and ninth innings all season: Clippard and Capps. Tonight's giveaway T-shirts have a picture of a giant coupon, emblazoned with the words "Clipp and Save." (Yes, that slogan was first coined by former Washington Times copy editor Steve Repsher.)
"It's kind of neat," said Capps, who got a glimpse of the shirts the other day. "It's a cool feeling, and something neat for your friends and family to see and to have. For the team to think that much of you, it's a good feeling."
So, how might the Nationals best commemorate the occasion tonight? How about taking a one- or two-run lead into the eighth inning against the Royals, then handing this game over to their most-trusted relievers? We'll see if they can pull that off.
Check back for updates throughout…

Does the lineup mean Nieves is catching Strasburg tomorrow?
- Anonymous - Jun 22, 2010 at 7:44 PM
Seriously, tje shakeup in the lineup is Kenndey for Desmond, why aren't we giving Zim the day off before a day game tomorrow? Or will he likely be off tomorrow and Stras will have a lineup like this one behind him tomorrow afternoon:CF BernadinaSS Desmond3B Gonzalez1B KennedyLF HarrisC NievesRF Morse2B Guzman?????
- NatsJack in Florida - Jun 22, 2010 at 7:45 PM
I guess a 25 Yo is tired and needs a rest. Guzman makes an error tonitr guaranteed!And good job Michael Morse. Your reward is…. ta da… Pinch Hitting!!!

WORST MANAGER IN THE LEAGUE !!!!!! No competition. The dumbest baseball manager I have ever witnessed. Its getting pretty frustrating to watch.
- Grandstander - Jun 22, 2010 at 7:52 PM
Everyday I find myself anxiously awaiting the lineup, hoping beyond hope that there's some kind of shakeup. Bernadina leading off, Morse in RF, Morgan not in it…Putting Guzman in SS for Desmond and slotting Kennedy at 2B was not what I had in mind.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 22, 2010 at 7:55 PM
The stats in the article is more evidence for something I've been wishing for a while — Clippard should be the closer.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 22, 2010 at 7:58 PM
Oh, and one more thing I wanted to mention. When complaining about Rizzo, folks ought to take a look at this bullpen and compare it to last years' — which was one of the league's worst. Last year the bullpen averaged an ERA of over 5 — this is quite an improvement. And it's almost all new guys.
- A DC Wonk - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:02 PM
NatsJack wrote: I guess a 25 Yo is tired and needs a rest.Sounds weird, but it might be true. Or, even he isn't tired — Desmond is is 2 for his last 24, and could use a day on the bench, imho.(sorry for making three posts in a row)
- Bowdenball - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:04 PM
Just a guess here, but I'm wondering if the people who are attempting to predict tomorrow's lineup based on today's lineup and guessing that Zimm or others will rest are forgetting that we have a day off on Thursday followed by a 45 minute "road trip" on Friday.Tomorrow's not your typical getaway weekday afternoon game. There's no reason everybody in the lineup today can't go tomorrow, including Pudge if he feels up for it.
- JayB - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:06 PM
My vote for post of the season is……"Anonymous said… WORST MANAGER IN THE LEAGUE !!!!!! No competition. The dumbest baseball manager I have ever witnessed. Its getting pretty frustrating to watch. "
- Anonymous - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:09 PM
Why in the world is Morse not playing. He is the hottest hitter they have. I said it before the season started and I will say it again – Nyjer Morgan is the 2010 version of Nook Logan. Guess we are going to have to wait for Logan, I mean Morgan, to get injured so Morse can get some serious playing time. All the guy does is hit. And please… no more Adam Kennedy.
- JayB - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:16 PM
I sat with Adam Dunn at the Season Ticket holders lunch. I remember him asking if Morse was coming back because "that guy can really hit". Adam went on to say he should 'playing everyday somewhere in this league"…..right you are Mr. Dunn!
- Bonnie Jo - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:31 PM
Any thoughts on the idea that Rizzo/Riggles are showcasing trade bait? Guzman? Morgan even?
- Anonymous - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:50 PM
Riggleman is far better than Manny, and i liked Manny personally, but hated his baseball decisions. Especially when a pitcher got down 6-0 and he left him in.At least Riggleman yanked Lannon three times in less than 5 innings.The brand of baseball this year is much better than it has been in a few years.I can see the forrest amounst the trees.
- NatsJack in Florida - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:55 PM
I agree that it is much better this year. We didn't win our 33rd game till August 3, 2009 last year so we are a good 6 weeks ahead.But I am getting tired of not playing our best lineup night in and night out. At least this year, we have players on the bench that have proven (at least for the short term) that they can play solid baseball.I like Riggleman personally, but he's reallly esting me with his hard headedness.
- NatsJack in Florida - Jun 22, 2010 at 8:57 PM
really testing
- Jaxpo Nat - Jun 22, 2010 at 9:01 PM
Why do I have a bad feeling that it will be Willingham, not Morgan or anyone else, that gets traded within the next few weeks, leaving us with Morgan/Bernandina/Morse in the OF. Just have a not-so-pleasing hunch.
- Mark L - Jun 22, 2010 at 11:05 PM
Baseball manager is the one job in sports where the fans have as much information on hand as he does. We know what he knows — he has two centerfielders, and he keeps running out the lessor one. And, by putting out the lessor CFer, he keeps the Nats hottest hitter on the bench. What's wrong with this picture?
- natsfan1a - Jun 23, 2010 at 12:14 AM
Just got home from a meeting and came here to check re. the rain delay. Stay safe out there!
- dj in Fl. - Jun 23, 2010 at 12:33 AM
Great csn article Mark….Would all the Riggleman haters please take note of Clips comments on how everyone knows exactly when they will pitch has made the pen solid.Please do not think the fan has has as much knowledge abd insight as all the powers that be that witness practice everyday. After attending 300 Nats games the last 5 years I can finally say there is progress this year.Enjoy it as it is now, and even more in the years to follow as they upgrade the position players. I bet there is a plan we know nothing about for every position on that team right now.
- dj in Fl. - Jun 23, 2010 at 12:41 AM
When retired guys try to multi task the english language is the first to go. Hopefully you got my point, sit back, relax, and enjoy the game.
- Matt - Jun 23, 2010 at 1:21 AM
It is pretty impressive that the Nats have only scored 4 runs on 10 hits, 2 of them homers, in 5 innings.
- Anonymous - Jun 23, 2010 at 1:47 AM
Like I said… sending down Lannan was the best possible thing Rizzo could have done for this team. It woke the rotation the hell up. This is easily Atilano's best performance to date from a pure stuff perspective, and it's not ALL thanks to Pudge.
- tappy - Jun 23, 2010 at 2:32 AM
It's OK to use Clippard tonight — I asked Santa for a no-no for my first Strasmas.
- LoveDaNats - Jun 23, 2010 at 2:57 AM
I somehow missed the connection between Clipp and peaches. Anyone care to elaborate?
- A DC Wonk - Jun 23, 2010 at 3:03 AM
Did anybody else think that "swinging bunt" in the ninth was rolling foul when Pudge picked it up?And two more hits for the Guz.
- Mark Zuckerman - Jun 23, 2010 at 3:15 AM
LoveDaNats: Clippard's entrance song is "Peaches" by the Presidents of the United States. One of the strangest song choices in the majors, but definitely cool and fitting for Tyler.
- Anonymous - Jun 23, 2010 at 3:20 AM
Peaches by The Presidents of the United States of America is Clippard's walk-in music. If you want to know why, I suppose you'd need to ask him.
- Doc - Jun 23, 2010 at 3:28 AM
Riggleman was recently asked about Morse playing more. He said that it was hard to find playing time for him with Hammer and Bernie in the OF. He absolutely didn't mention Morgan, like Morgan is an 'untouchable' in CF. Many Nats fans see Bernie as a better fielder that Morgan, and Morse as a way-better hitter.Riggleman then went on to say that Morgan is still learning the game. Yeah, right! He's been playing professional ball for 10 years, and he's still needs to figure it out from a teacher like Riggleman. Even when Morgan was playing hockey in the winter, he played ball in the summer, all the way through he teens. Does Riggleman really think that Nats fans are so much below him in baseball acumen that only he understands Morgan's value (or lack of value)?Mark's stats on Nats leading MLB in HRs with no one on base is a tribute to both Morgan's and Guzman's deficient OBPs. I don't think that neither Riggleman, nor Rizzo are very stats savy. If they were, the OF would be Hammer, Bernie, and Morse. Bernie might even make a pretty good lead off guy.

Starting Anew, with Barley
It's been over 2 years since I last posted on kyleslattery.com, so how better to get things going again than to delete everything and just start over? I've archived the old site, and I'm now running everything on Barley, a refreshing new take on the CMS by my friends at Plain. At the moment, the theme I'm using is Subtle, but I'll likely be making my own tweaks to it going forward.
What I've been up to
Since the last time I posted, a lot has changed. I left my job at Buzzcar, moved to Philadelphia in October, and started work at Artisan last November. I've been doing a little bit of everything at the new gig, from super low-level Objective-C in our SDK to writing better deploy scripts for our servers with Ansible (which I absolutely love, but more on that later).

"Deputy DA Price, a 2014 police-union-backed candidate for the Long Beach City Council"
That will be fun. I can verbally shit on Price and Long Beach police Chief Jim McDonnell at LB city council meetings. This is the asshole Chief that thought it was funny to almost cause a traffic accident when me and my wife were in Long Beach celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary. I wonder if this idiot questioned his white female cop yet?

This is likely going to be my last blog here. I knew this day would come but I've been using this site since I still have one friend left here. I would love if I could delete this blog but I can't even delete posts. Wonder if it gets deleted if I get banned. But this is it. If anyone wants to keep in touch with me... I have Twitter, Tumblr, and I'm thinking of making a Wordpress blog (hopefully posts can be deleted). I got some others too but everything Is pretty much connected. Just send me a private message.
Goodbye GameSpot. I'll see about deleting this next month.

great product, great service, great delivery.....highly recommend.....:-))) this top is thin enough to wear under things and not get in the way. I bought it to wear in Oregon in December so have not had the chance to wear it yet.
I wear this mostly as a turtleneck and keeps me warm in the darn aweful winter. Color is great and wear great!
I purchased this to wear as pajamas in the desert, this top was to comfy I wore it a couple of nights at the bonfire as well. The shirt worked to keep me cool in the front (facing the fire) but warm on my back. Great buy!
This thermal top is soft and warm and has held up well through several launderings in the washer/dryer. Good value and great color. Will pick up more for next winter.

Many of the risk factors for stroke can be lowered or treated. Others, such as increasing age, family history of stroke, your race, or prior stroke cannot be. The more risk factors you control, the more you can reduce your risk of having a stroke.
Hypertension is the most common and most preventable risk factor for stroke. Hypertension is defined as having a systolic pressure greater than 140 mm Hg and diastolic pressure greater than 90 mm Hg. A good blood pressure is 120 mm Hg/80 mm Hg or lower. Blood pressure varies with age and normal values tend to increase with age. The American Heart Association recommends your blood pressure be measured on a regular basis starting at age 20. If you have normal blood pressure, you should get it checked at least once every two years or at every healthcare visit. If you have a certain condition, like diabetes, or repeated blood pressure readings that are elevated, your doctor may have stricter blood pressure goals for you. Reducing high blood pressure lowers your risk for stroke.
Lowering cholesterol levels with diet, exercise, and medication may help reduce the build-up of fatty arterial plaque ( atherosclerosis ) that can trigger a stroke. The American Heart Association recommends adults have a fasting cholesterol check at least once every five years starting at age 20. A desirable total cholesterol level is less than 200 mg/dL. If you have cardiovascular disease or diabetes, your doctor will have you follow stricter cholesterol guidelines and may check it more often.
If you have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm), a blood thinner such as warfarin may be able to lower your risk for stroke. Blood thinners help reduce blood clots from forming. Blood clots can block arteries that feed the brain, causing a stroke. However, your doctor should monitor your condition carefully if you are taking warfarin therapy to watch for possible bleeding.
If you have diabetes, keeping your blood in a specified target range can reduce your risk of stroke. Blood pressure drugs called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors can be helpful for this purpose. Following your treatment plan to control your blood glucose level is also important in decreasing stroke risk.
Smokers have twice the risk of suffering a stroke as nonsmokers. This risk is increased even higher if you are also taking oral contraceptive pills. However, if you stop smoking , your risk of stroke will fall—within about five years—to the same level as someone who never smoked. There are many smoking cessation aids available today, including online support groups, nicotine patches, sprays, gum, or certain drugs. Talk to your doctor if you need help to quit smoking.
Antiplatelet medications make blood platelets less sticky and, therefore, less likely to form clots that can lead to strokes. Some people who have already suffered a stroke or a transient ischemic attack (TIA) may benefit from taking an antiplatelet agent. Medications like aspirin, clopidogrel, or the combination of aspirin plus dipyridamol, may be prescribed.
If you have fatty arterial deposits in your neck, which can lead to stroke, you may benefit from carotid artery surgery . The carotid arteries supply the brain with oxygen. The surgery is done to restore blood flow. If you have severe arterial blockage and a history of previous stroke or TIA, this surgery may significantly reduce your risk of a second stroke.
Exercising regularly can reduce your risk of stroke. Work with your doctor to create an exercise routine that is safe for you.
Today we are much better prepared than in the past to prevent strokes. If you are at increased risk for stroke, discuss your options with your doctor. If you do experience symptoms of a stroke, it is important to immediately undergo medical evaluation. For acute strokes, the time to diagnosis and treatment is extremely important. If you think you are having a stroke, call for emergency medical services right away.

Best on-the-go skin pick-me-up - 3/27/2015 6:18:07 PM This product makes my skin feel great. It is light and it really makes your skin feel hydrated. I have combination skin so I need something light in between moisturizing. I find this is perfect. I use this daily.excellent facial cleanser - 11/23/2014 1:57:12 AM I love this product. It is so gentle on sensitive skin. I wish the product was packaged in a non breakable bottle however for use in the shower. I also use Bioelements Flash Foam that is packaged in non breakable plastic which is perfect for travel and shower use.Great eye cream at a very nice price... - 11/9/2014 12:54:22 PM Very happily surprised! I did not give it 5 stars because it will not lift the upper eyelids like another eye cream from a very high end line but other than that is fabulous for dry weather or winter it really reduces fine lines in a very short time about two weeks you just remember you had some and they are gone!Wake up to great skin! - 11/2/2014 10:54:50 AM I really like this product because it is gentle and absorbs fast. In the morning, my face looks really radiant. I can't say that sometimes my face doesn't feel slick because it does, but it is better than how it is without the product.Love! - 9/29/2014 6:57:59 PM The Skin Store reviewers did not disappoint! This is a great product. It has a gel consistency and may seem a little thick to some, but in the morning, my face looks great. It isn't oily at all. I was using this product with another product that was supposed to be a daily moisturizer for oily skin. However, I can't use them both together so I just use this at night. I really couldn't be happier with the results.squeaky clean results - 12/8/2013 8:15:47 AM I need a cleanser for oily skin and love this one. I use it with the clarisonic mia at the end of the day. Even without the clarisonic it takes just two pumps of cleanser, it lathers nicely, deep cleans without feeling harsh and drying. I first bought a bottle of this almost a year ago and still haven't used it all.TRULY AMAZING! - 8/16/2013 4:03:10 AM For the past 20 yrs. I have tried dozens of oil control mattifiers that offered little results for my extremely oily skin. I continued to purchase different brands and was simply disappointed with each product. FINALLY I discovered BIOELELMENTS and I must say that this product does everything it claims to do. The product has a pleasant smell, is light-weight, absorbs quickly, and truly keeps my face shine-free for the entire day. A very little amount goes a long way. It may even be used to "dab" on areas of the face IF shine should appear, and the shine goes away. I am hard to impress when it comes to facial products and this one is a 5 star for me!You've gotta try this! - 1/16/2013 7:56:54 PM Crucial Moisture is a wonderful product. You only need to use a very little bit, and your skin will absorb it quickly and thank you ever time you apply!Best sensitive skin cleanser - 12/21/2012 8:39:36 AM I love this cleanser; was introduced to it years ago by a wonderful esthetician during a facial and have been using it ever since. Removes all makeup!Great for Sensitive Skin - 8/20/2012 8:31:04 AM This is a great cleanser for sensitive skin. The bottle will last a long time. I use a Glytone product in the AM and this in the pm. I have rosacea and this cleanser was one of the first I used that did not irritate or burn my skin. It takes off cosmetics and leaves your skin feeling nice and clean but not dried out. -

The soft skin at the back of the scrotum. It is usually bald, but occasionally hairy. The olb is not to be mistaken for the gooch, as the olb is part of the scrotum, not the skin between the scrotum and rectum.
I was relaxing, gently caressing my olb, then I proceeded to shove my hand in the slut's face and forced her to savor the sour, yet all too familiar odor.

Monday October 20, 2014, Kasese, Uganda
I woke up the Saturday, the first day of the Northland Challenge, thinking about Huck Finn. Toyota Rav4s are our modern-day rafts and our Mississippi is the narrow roads and lush terrain of Uganda.
We traveled more than 300 kilometers on Saturday, from Entebbe to Kibale; and another 100-plus kilometers yesterday from Kibale to Kasese.
Here's a sampling of events from the first 48 hours: Cesar and Amanda had baboons jump on the top of their vehicle and refuse to jump off; Vivian and Tim's car was surrounded by angry, stomping, ear flapping elephants—and after the elephants finally, thankfully, left and they were able to get on their way, another angry elephant charged them; Pierre had a close encounter with a chimp during the chimp tracking. My partner, Guy, and I have traveled "the extra mile" but not necessarily on purpose. (We started off the challenge with a multiple-kilometer detour. Then, we refused to believe a local who told us we were way off course, and detoured even farther.)
We've also seen emerald green hillside tea farms, banana tree plantations, very rudimentary indoor plumbing in some locations; beautiful, smiling children; women in gorgeous, brightly colored dresses with coordinated sashes and headscarfs; and we've met many kind, helpful locals.
Not your average day in the office.
A key element of the Northland Challenge is that we only learn our destination for the day at dinner the night before. We're told the destination and given a map of varying degrees of detail. For example, our destination for tonight is a campsite in Ishasha, part of Queen Elizabeth State Park.
The address? "Unnamed road."
Then there are "challenge points," things like: take a photo of a hippo or a photo of a landmark. Yesterday one of the challenge points was a photo of yourself at the marker for the equator with a stranger. We're given a number of options for activities (ie. do a self-guided safari; take a boat ride); some warnings ("this is not a race; don't feed the lions; if you reach this bridge you've gone too far.") We're encouraged to explore along the way.
How do the challengers react to this unstructured structure of the Challenge? Echo told me she finds it interesting. During her travels, she said she remembers advice from her mother to think about the worst case scenario—if you can handle that, go for it. If not, it's time to regroup.
Amanda told me she finds the lack of structure "freeing." James C. observed that when you don't have an exact route charted for you and a strict accompanying timeline, you worry less, he said.
Lacking very specific expectations, you're free to discover, they say.
Mostly it's just fun.
I'm sitting in the open air dining area of the lodge right now listening to challengers talking about the yesterday's adventure and planning today's.
Would you have wanted to experienced the encounter with the elephants? Who saw the black mamba snake? Will there be beer at the campsite?
Look for another blog in two days. No wifi at the campground tonight. In the meantime, check out Pierre's blog and some great photos at www.northlandchallenge.com
Honeywell's Connect 2014 is coming up next month, and I'm happy to say I'll be in attendance.
Best-selling author and syndicated columnist Jeffrey Gitomer will keynote the event, an annual gathering of independent dealers, which is scheduled for Nov. 13-16 in Orlando. Gitomer is a sales and customer service expert who will speak on his unique approach to driving sales.
More than 60 educational sessions aimed at residential, commercial and enterprise installers are scheduled. I've been looking at the list trying to plan a strategy to get to as many as I can.
Honeywell will be showing off its award-wining LYNX Touch 7000 and its High Definition IP Video Kits, and will be giving demos in its Connected Home Room—and that's something I'm looking forward to as well.
If you'll be there, let me know so we can meet up!
UPDATED: Oct. 17, 2014
Security, service and globalization. This is my last blog post from Maine for a little over a week. Tomorrow I'm boarding a bus, a plane and another plane on the way to Entebbe, Uganda, where I'll join 27 others in the Northland Challenge—23 employees of Northland Controls and 5 others, like me, who work in the industry in other roles.
Northland Controls is a global systems integration company that I've written about many times. Here's a link to their home page. And here's a blog I wrote a while ago about successful systems integrators. Scroll down to find the part about Northland.
So what's the Northland Challenge?
On first inspection it looks like an extreme team-building exercise. The group is broken up into teams of two. Every morning each team will be given a destination and a (paper) map, and some "challenge points"—places or points of interest—to locate during the day. Over the course of a week we'll caravan across Southern Uganda and into Rwanda.
So, there's definitely a team-building odyssey element to the Challenge, but at its core, the Northland Challenge is really an exercise in how to thrive as a worker and a business in today's global economy.
Globalization is not something that's just happening, it's here, says Northland CEO Pierre Trapanese. If you want to be really good at doing business today, you need to take the time to understand other people's points of view, their history, their cultures, and their infrastructure (understanding building codes and power requirements is particularly important in security.)
In essence, to go global, you need to understand the local.
The Challenge, Trapanese says, is about "breaking down stereotypes, overcoming our fears of the unknown, and getting out of our shells to work with locals to find our way from one end of their country to the other without the use of technology."
This year's trip to Uganda and Rwanda is the third Northland challenge. In 2010, the group "raced across India in Tuk Tuks," and in 2012 the challenge involved 4x4s and the Caucuses Mountains.
This year, the challenge has another, very important component: service.
"We are challenging ourselves to go a step further, to leave behind for the people we encounter an opportunity to accelerate their economic development and to thrive as individuals and as a community," Trapanese said.
Specifically, Northland Controls is raising money to bring electricity to a part of Rwanda that has none. Working with San Francisco-based Firelight Foundation and a local installer in Rwanda, Northland is funding the installation of solar panels for 25 homes, a community center and a school.
Importantly, the solar panel project is designed to be a self-sustaining enterprise that will continue to bring electricity, jobs, and opportunity to the community.
This is the way it will work: A local provider will install the solar panels in 25 homes that currently used kerosene for power. Those families will pay the local solar provider a monthly fee equal to what they would have paid monthly for kerosene. After a certain period of time, the local provider will be able to install more panels in more homes, continuing to build an account base and recurring monthly revenue. It's very similar to the alarm monitoring business model actually.
I'll have more details about the solar panel projects in the next couple of days. But here's some important information for you now.Northland employees have raised about $35,000 and Northland has provided $10,000. You can help by donating any amount to the cause.
Here's a link to the fund raising site .
More from the road tomorrow.
Last week, I wrote a lot about the battle for small business staring ADT and TycoIS, former sister companies that are now competing for a piece of the lucrative small business pie.
Following the Sept. 29 expiration of their non-compete, both companies used last week's ASIS show as a platform to announce their plans. There's a story in this week's newswire with details of TycoIS's plan. Here's a link to that.
Also getting in the act last week, was GOP Congressman John Mica from Florida. During a Congressional hearing about the breach of the White House perimeter, Rep. Mica told (now former) Secret Service Director Julia Pierson about his home security system and suggested that the White House consider installing an ADT system. He even had an ADT sign handy. Check out the video.
Jeez, ADT executives must have been bumming about that.
You have to hand it to ADT for their response: simple, respectful and with lots and lots of information about ADT's capabiliities: Here's the statement ADT released on Sept. 30.
"ADT Responds to Congressional Hearing on Secret ServiceBOCA RATON, Fla.--ADT responds to Congressman John Mica's comments about the use of services like ADT at The White House: ADT has been protecting homes for more than 140 years, and we are honored to be mentioned as an option to secure the most famous residence in America. With that said, we have the utmost respect for the security staff that works diligently every day to protect the President and our Nation.About ADTThe ADT Corporation (NYSE: ADT) is the leading provider of electronic security, interactive home and business automation and monitoring services for residences and small businesses in the United States and Canada. ADT's broad and pioneering set of products and services, including ADT Pulse® interactive home and business solutions, and home health services, meet a range of customer needs for today's active and increasingly mobile lifestyles. Headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, ADT helps provide peace of mind to nearly seven million customers, and it employs approximately 17,000 people at 200 locations. More information is available at www.adt.com."
When I spoke last month to SentryNet's Kurt Erdman and Alain Jamet, national sales manager and vice president of operations, respectively, both characterized their central station as an "activity hub" that would perform the dual task of promoting new technologies and keeping security professionals attuned to broader trends affecting the industry.
Given that approach, it's not surprising that the information the company blasts out often reads like a hybrid between a news release and, well, news. A good example of this surfaced last week when the company summarized an episode in which all the interdependent parts of a security plan interacted properly to snuff out a crime in progress.
At 1:30 a.m. on August 11, an alarm was received from the Nashville Armory, a popular firearm complex housing a shooting range and a stockpile of weapons and ammo. Responding to the alarm, police pursued and caught a pair of burglars who had managed to make off with a haul of weapons and ammo valued at more than $10,000. Video surveillance recorded both subjects carrying out the crime, the SentryNet release noted, citing a report from the local Fox affiliate in Nashville.
The summary goes on to highlight myriad behind-the-scenes measures taken to help foil the crime, crediting everyone from the end users, the technicians, a locally owned alarm company (C.O. Christian and Sons), an integrator (Herring Technology), and SentryNet's own central station and staff with performing their specific duties with aplomb.
"Those of us who are in this business understand the synergy and combined effort that took place behind the scenes in this story," the SentryNet release noted. Well said. A successful security operation is an ecosystem, sustained by the efforts of people who sometimes never physically cross paths. It's good to see that fact highlighted, and the credit for success shared.
The 60th annual ASIS conference opened in Atlanta on Monday, Sept. 29.
The start of ASIS coincided with the expiration of the non-compete agreement between TycoIS and ADT. When Tyco and ADT split, the agreement stipulated that Tyco could not serve businesses of less than 7,500 square feet and that ADT could not serve businesses greater than 7,500 square feet in size. Those restrictions were void as of Monday and both ADT and TycoIS have been eager to talk about their plans to dominate small/medium sized business.
Last week, TycoIS introduced Holis, an HD IP camera line that's bundled with a security assessment, a mobile app and flexible financing options. I spoke to TycoIS's Mark Bomber about how that launch would help position TycoIS to move into this market. On Monday, Luis Orbegoso announced ADT's go-to-market plan. Here's that story.
On Tuesday, a group of TycoIS executives explained their company's plan to secure small business beachheads in five markets: Dallas, Chicago, two locations in Southern California and South Florida. The group included: Mike Moran, VP, Central Region; Dan Schroeder, VP Commercial/National Account Sales, North America; Hank Monaco, VP, Marketing; Mark VanDover, President; Tony McGraw, VP, Field Operations. The theme of their plan is to "go local" to effectively compete against local regional providers. Look for a full write-up on that announcement this week.
It will be very interesting to see how the battle for SMB shakes out. Will ADT or TycoIS prevail in this market, or will it be the regional independent integrator who wins out?
One person who's clearly in ADT's court is a Florida GOP Congressman, who made a pitch for ADT securing the White House. Check out this video. The guy even had an ADT sign handy.
Below is a roundup of my Day 1 and Day 2 meetings:
My first meeting was with Axis Communications' Fredrik Nilsson and Kelley Brescia. Axis likes its themes. At ISC West the company talked about the "power of four" and here at ASIS, they continued on that theme. Axis introduced its Q6000-E "that's four cameras in one" Nilsson said. It's Axis' new approach to a 360-degree camera. It is made up of four 2 megapixel camera heads so it can "cover four football fields. Those four cameras offer a very unique way to do 360-degree camera and when you combine it with a PTZ …. you can trigger to zoom in without losing the overview of the football field [losing the overview when zooming is a common problem with 360-degree cameras]," Nilsson explained. The camera is ideal for city surveillance, retail parking lots, big school yards or critical infrastructure, he said. Axis got into access control last year with the intrduction of its door controller. This year it introduced a card reader, designed to work with its controller, which it developed with ASSA ABLOY. Axis also introduced its AXIS Camera Station S10 Recorder Series. AXIS Camera Station is preloaded on Dell servers and pre-configured to work with its cameras. This solution is the for the mid-size market, Nilsson said, which needs storage and wants and easy set up. Applications of 1 to 8 cameras can use the Axis Companion SD card, but installers of mid-sized applications (16 to 64 cameras) –who are moving from analog to IP—need a recording box, but they don't want to spend time configuring servers, he said. And the fourth four? It's a "four lettter word--EASY [to install,use, etc]," Nilsson said.
At Protection 1's meeting room, which was off of the showfloor, but overlooked the showfloor, I spoke with a group of folks including Jamie Haenggi and Christopher BenVau about several news items including the fact that its Network Operations Center (NOC), has received "Cisco Cloud and Managed Services Express Partner Certification status." Just over 106 companies in the U.S. have earned this designation, and Protection 1 is now the only security company among them.
Alan Forman talking about new LINQ offering at Altronix. The company introduces its LINQ2 Network Communication Module, which provides remote control and real time monitoring and reporting of Altronix's new eFlow Power Supply/Chargers.
Samsung introduced its Open Platform, which allows technology partners to use standardized APIs to develop apps and put them on Samsung's WiseNet III cameras. The partners featured were LPR provider PlateSmart , storage provider Veracity and video analytics company AgentVI. Samsung's Tom Cook said "the camera becomes a full system, like a mobile phone."
At national integrator Security-Net's booth I spoke to member company executives John Krumme of Cam-Dex Security and David Alessandrini of Pasek, who told me about Security-Net's newest initiative called Ops-Net. It's a program where operations folks from Security-Net companies get together—either in person or remotely—to discuss ideas, best practices and to troubleshoot. Like Security-Net's Tech-Net and Sales-Net, this initiatives helps drive "more synergy and consistency across companies," Krumme said.
At Stanley Security a group of executives including Beth Tarnoff and Marty Guay talked about Stanley's "Together for Safer Schools" grant program, which the company has extended to higher ed. Higher ed is an important market that needs "really good precision around compliance, reporting, and policy standards," Guay said. Stanley's higher ed security solutions address that problem, he said.
Next, I met with Tony Byerly, Jeremy Brecher, and Felix Gonzales, to talk about new features of Diebold's Secure Stat offering, which the integrator debuted at ISC West in 2013. Its new features enable "dynamic data aggregation" so customers can sort, see, and act on data. As an example of how Secure Stat could work for a retailer with 12 stores, Brecher showed how pages of data could be sorted [by the end user or it could be set up by Diebold] to provide pinpointed information about stores that were not opened on time. This kind of information is very valuable to a retailer, Byerly said, "that's lost revenue that has a real bottom-line impact to a retailer." This information can help a district manager with 12 retail stores, for example, to address those problems and make more money.
At G4STechnology, I met with Misty Stine who explained that the company's ECOE (energy center of excellence) in Chicago will help its energy clients "develop standards, prove out systems, [be a location where] we can bring customers in."
Sarah Semerjian and John Moss were showing off S2 Security's Mobile Security Officer. And, John Moss was talking about S2's engineering staff, which has tripled in size.
Avigilon's Mahesh Saptharishi has been promoted to CTO. The company was showing the latest release of the Avigilon Control Center (ACC) software.
I meet with Courtney Mamuscia at Verint and we talked about how Verint is endeavoring to have more collaboration among its three business units.
SightLogix' John Romanowich and Frank De Fina announced the launch of its Strategic Partner Program. Its first partner is Axis Communications. Read the story here.
I had a chance to meet Honeywell Security Products' new president Inder Reddy last week. Here's that story. He says the industry will be hearing more about Honeywell's focus on the customer experience.
I met Digital Watchdog's Mark Espenschied, president Wade Thomas and had a few minutes to catch up with Ian Johnston, whose company ISD was acquired by Digital WatchDog this year. Johnston continues to run ISD and also serves as CTO for Digital Watchdog. Johnston explained a new phrase he's coined "Caas" that's "camera as a sensor" and he uses it to explain capabilities of the company's products. He also showed me their new camera with four 4K sensors each producing 30fps, called 16K30fps, and an alternative camera (8MP30fps) with four 1080p sensors which each maintain their 30fps. Digitial Watchdog says competing cameras produce 6fps under optimal conditions.
With the company's infrastructure built out, several lucrative contracts and a FICAM approval in hand, Dennis Raefield says Viscount working on partnership with ECKey. ECKey's Paul Bodell and Robert Chevitz, an investor in both companies, were on hand at the booth.
Matt Barnette told me about how AMAG Technology is working with a data analytics company to "extend usefulness of security system."
I had a chance to meet Xentry Systems' Andre Greco, who told me more about the expansion and training of Xentry's sales staff to approach sales in the right way. Customers don't want to talk about product initially, he said. They're concerned about "cost, compliance & risk."
I made my way to the A Hall, not an easy task, to see Shawn Reilly of TechSystems Inc., give a lively presentation about access control "holes" in health care facitlities. I also had a few minutes to catch up with Sharon Shaw (of TechSystems and also on the TechSec Advisory board) about TechSec Solutions planning for 2015.
At Genetec, Pierre Racz gave me an overview of several new Genetec products including its VOIP offering which he summed up this way: "We're the first and we're the best."
I caught up with Marilyn Hollier, president of IAHSS and director of security for University of Michigan Hospitals and Health Centers.
I met Deb Spitler at HID and got enrolled in HIDGlobal new Mobile Access, a product that's been in different stages of development for three years. It's a cool demo and worth stopping by the booth to try out. On Oct. 1 HID announced a Mobile Access pilot project at Vanderbilt University.
At an evening event, OnSSI's Ken LaMarca announced that the VMS provider's new integration with Samsung's WiseNet III IP cameras, which is designed to "provide real-time situational awareness, deliver integral 360 degree camera dewarping for improved wide area coverage, and convey high capacity in-camera network video recording."
On Day 3, I spoke to OnSSI's Brandi Gill who filled me in on all of the benefits of the new integration.
At Quantum Secure, I spoke to Rochelle Thompson about the company's offering for the SMB market a "Safer Secure Cloud Solution."
On to PPM, a provider of "incident management software" to speak to Elaine O'Sullivan. While PPM might sound like a PSIM product, O'Sullivan told me: "we don't want to be a PSIM." At the booth, O'Sullivan was telling customers about the newest version of Perspective V4.5, which includes more analytical and reporting options.
My final meeting of ASIS was with executives from one of the industry's key organizations: PSA Security. I had a chance to catch up with CEO Bill Bozeman and meet Kim Garcia, the new director of marketing. PSA Security has spent the past several months laying the groundwork to help its integrators get smart about cyber security. The group's new training will be launched soon, and Security Director News and Security Systems News are looking forward to covering PSA's work in this very important realm.
And speaking of PSA Security, it was great to catch up briefly with some PSA Security owners, namely Christine and Andrew Lanning of IST; Pierre Trapanese, Guy Morgante and Henry Hoyne of Northland Controls, and Eric Yunag of Dakota Security.
If you've been keeping up with SSN's latest coverage, you probably know that Lou Fiore has been busy recently as an advocate for the industry. Certainly he's not alone in this respect. But over the last few weeks, Fiore has written a letter (on behalf of the AICC) to the FCC in defense of net neutrality and played a lead role in updating the CP-01 standard, designed to reduce false alarms.
Fiore will now have the chance to apply his advocacy efforts on behalf of the Central Station Alarm Association, now that he's been named interim executive vice president of the organization, effective Oct. 1. He will assume the position held by outgoing EVP Steve Doyle, who is retiring.
Fiore, who serves as president of L.T. Fiore, a consulting firm specializing in the security industry, is closely involved with numerous industry organizations. A major player in the industry standards arena, Fiore is chairman of the Alarm Industry Communications Committee and of the CSAA Standards Committee. He also chairs SIA's Security Industry Standards Council and is a long-time member of the Supervising Station Committee of NFPA 72. He's also been a member of various UL standards technical panels, according to a news release from the CSAA.
"The CSAA executive committee and I are thrilled that Lou has agreed to lead CSAA during this period of change," Jay Hauhn, president of CSAA, said in a prepared statement. "Lou's distinctive industry accomplishments uniquely qualify him for the position. I look forward to the next several months with confidence, knowing that the association is in good hands."
Breaking news with afternoon from Pittsburg: Intertech Security, is now a $41 million integrator after the acquisition, announced today of Accent Electronic Systems Integrators, which is known as Accent ESI, a privately-held integrator based in Bridgeville, Pa.
The deal brings Intertech 40 new employees including Paul Caruso, an owner and principal manager of Accent ESI, who will become VP and GM of the Accent Division.
Former Accent ESI employees will continue to work from Accent's Bridgeville, Pa and Akron, Ohio office for the immediate future.
I have not had a chance to contact Ron Petnuch, president of Intertech Security yet, but he said in a statement that the companies have complementary capabilities. A company statement said that Intertech's "expertise in integrated security systems combined with Accent ESI's expertise in fire systems, sound systems, networks, audio visual and intercom systems provides additional opportunities and products for Intertech's growing customer base in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, Florida and Texas."
The statement said that Accent ESI has a "strong presence in the K-12 education market and new construction market" and said "coupled with Intertech's experience in the end-user, client service market will enhance Intertech's continuing growth."
To survive, adapt. Those words have become an industry maxim of late. A similar sentiment holds true for those in the standards writing arena who strive to stay current with the technological arc of the industry.
The CP-01 Working Group, a special group of the SIA Intrusion Subcommittee, this week unveiled a false alarm reduction standard that includes definitions for remote devices and updated language, stemming from requests for interpretation from the last update of the standard, completed in 2010.
Called the ANSI/SIA CP-01-2014, the updated standard is intended for use by manufacturers in the design of control panels and alarm signal receivers, and for reference by security system installers, specifiers, central station operators and manufacturers of central station-related products.
"As technology continues to evolve, it is important that we keep this useful standard up to date with it," Lou Fiore, chairman of the CP-01 Working Group, said in a prepared statement. "Increasingly, panels are being armed and disarmed using remote devices including smartphones and tablets, we thought it was time to address that in CP-01."
Revisions to the CP-01 standard have been made over the past two decades in response to technological evolution in the sphere of false alarm reduction. According to a SIA statement, CP-01-compliant panels have been instrumental in reducing false alarms by as much as 90 percent, saving municipalities and responders time and money.
For the next few years, the updated standard will presumably be the measuring stick for due diligence as far as minimizing false alarms. But as anyone in the industry can attest, technological development is unpredictable, so it wouldn't be too surprising to see this "keystone" CP-01 standard updated again in the next five years. As the industry adapts, so too must its best practices and standards.
Readers: We're looking for your help.
As we've done for the past five year, SSN is preparing to do a special report about women in security.
We'll be choosing six women who work in different sectors of the physical security industry to profile. The profiles will appear online and in the November printed issue of Security Systems News.
The sectors correspond to the "beats" in our publication, which are: Suppliers [manufacturers]; Commercial and systems integrators; Fire installation; Monitoring; Residential Security; and General News. So, we're looking for women who are leaders in these different sectors of the industry. For the "general news" category, we're looking for women who work in the physical security sector, but do not fall into the other categories. For example, they could work for a lender to the security industry, an industry association, or they may be a consultant.
We're working on the November issue right now, so need your suggestions ASAP. Please email your nominations to me at email@example.com.
Here are the profiles from 2013. Click on the name to read the profile:
Terry Basford, 4b Technology,Elizabeth Hunger, SIA,Karen Head, Kratos PSSJennifer Jezek, York Electronic Systems,Betsy Francis, AT&T,Elle Daley, COPS Monitoring,Deb Spitler, HID

This is great, I intend to follow you up on that offer =)
The area where I've seen huge issues is in math formulas. It's quite hard to use LibreOffice/OpenOffice at university when stupid teachers distribute docx-documents, and refuse to use PDF instead. I've been forced to open them in MS Office, and then export them as PDF, to be able to view them.
What is the best place to report compatibility issues? The ordinary LibreOffice bug database?
EDIT: Stupid question. Of course it's the best place, hehe...
While it is nice something is "happening" around Skype, my experience running 4.0 so far is bad.
It's very unstable as I am getting a lot of crashes under openSUSE 12.1 with that new chat view...
Going back to earlier release...
Last edited by FunkyM; 06-15-2012 at 10:11 AM.
hi, can be activated 2 simultaneously skype ?
yeah it appears way more unstable than the old version - it just crashed after it automatically ended an attempted conference call
anyone know btw how to show the keypad / numbers during a call (needed for conference calls) ? can't seem to find it (did they forget it ? )
how to activate ?
thanks !

InterPro entry IPR013856
In the MEROPS database peptidases and peptidase homologues are grouped into clans and families. Clans are groups of families for which there is evidence of common ancestry based on a common structural fold:
- Each clan is identified with two letters, the first representing the catalytic type of the families included in the clan (with the letter 'P' being used for a clan containing families of more than one of the catalytic types serine, threonine and cysteine). Some families cannot yet be assigned to clans, and when a formal assignment is required, such a family is described as belonging to clan A-, C-, M-, N-, S-, T- or U-, according to the catalytic type. Some clans are divided into subclans because there is evidence of a very ancient divergence within the clan, for example MA(E), the gluzincins, and MA(M), the metzincins.
- Peptidase families are grouped by their catalytic type, the first character representing the catalytic type: A, aspartic; C, cysteine; G, glutamic acid; M, metallo; N, asparagine; S, serine; T, threonine; and U, unknown. The serine, threonine and cysteine peptidases utilise the amino acid as a nucleophile and form an acyl intermediate - these peptidases can also readily act as transferases. In the case of aspartic, glutamic and metallopeptidases, the nucleophile is an activated water molecule. In the case of the asparagine endopeptidases, the nucleophile is asparagine and all are self-processing endopeptidases.
In many instances the structural protein fold that characterises the clan or family may have lost its catalytic activity, yet retain its function in protein recognition and binding.
Metalloproteases are the most diverse of the four main types of protease, with more than 50 families identified to date. In these enzymes, a divalent cation, usually zinc, activates the water molecule. The metal ion is held in place by amino acid ligands, usually three in number. The known metal ligands are His, Glu, Asp or Lys and at least one other residue is required for catalysis, which may play an electrophillic role. Of the known metalloproteases, around half contain an HEXXH motif, which has been shown in crystallographic studies to form part of the metal-binding site [PUBMED:7674922]. The HEXXH motif is relatively common, but can be more stringently defined for metalloproteases as 'abXHEbbHbc', where 'a' is most often valine or threonine and forms part of the S1' subsite in thermolysin and neprilysin, 'b' is an uncharged residue, and 'c' a hydrophobic residue. Proline is never found in this site, possibly because it would break the helical structure adopted by this motif in metalloproteases [PUBMED:7674922].
This group of metallopeptidases that belong to the MEROPS peptidase family M4 (thermolysin family, clan MA(E)). The protein fold of the peptidase domain of thermolysin, is the type example for members of the clan MA. The thermolysin family is composed only of secreted eubacterial endopeptidases. The zinc-binding residues are H-142, H-146 and E-166, with E-143 acting as the catalytic residue. Thermolysin also contains 4 calcium-binding sites, which contribute to its unusual thermostability. The family also includes enzymes from a number of pathogens, including Legionella and Listeria, and the protein pseudolysin, all with a substrate specificity for an aromatic residue in the P1' position. Three-dimensional structure analysis has shown that the enzymes undergo a hinge-bend motion during catalysis. Pseudolysin has a broader specificity, acting on large molecules such as elastin and collagen, possibly due to its wider active site cleft [PUBMED:7674922].
