EDUCAUSE IT Governance, Risk, and Compliance Program
Governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) issues increasingly pervade higher education information technology. As institutional investment in IT and reliance on information systems have grown, so has the need for reliable structures and measures to ensure success and minimize failure.
IT GRC programs develop a framework for the leadership, organization, and operation of an institution's IT programs. This framework can be used by IT staff to ensure that their programs support and enable the institution's strategic objectives. The EDUCAUSE IT GRC program provides resources that help you define and implement IT GRC activities on your own campus.
A member advisory board, member working groups, and representatives from complementary organizations advise EDUCAUSE in the development of best practices, toolkits, and case studies. EDUCAUSE-conducted research will benchmark how higher education institutions are currently approaching IT GRC practices. New resources will be added to this page as they are developed.

[edit] Project Updates
[edit] Consensus items
Board member election process
rachel m gives short explanation of exciting board election issue.
lief explains condorcet voting method. he thinks it is too complicated. he likes approval voting method - you vote for as many candidates as you want, and the most votes win. unranked voting.
(question: why is that better?)
he thinks this is simpler, less of a popularity contest. more noisebridgey.
(shannon suggests a hack on the condorcet method that renders it equally good.)
lief explains why this only eliminates popularity contests if everyone does it. He swears it been used in the "real" world, but has no cites.
this way selects the people that the most people are ok with, vs. condorcet which selects the people that ?????
if there is a tie we will need a runoff election.
we need to consense on this next week if we are going to do it this time, it might delay elections. leif offers to proxy for anyone who wants to block if it means we can accelerate the process of adopting this while people are gone.
we need to do the elections to follow nonprofit guidelines.
we start discussing condorcet software upgrades. lief will write approval voting in python if we want to do it. shannon proposes a programming race between the two softwares.
does anyone else care? only sort of. we could do a parallel vote to compare the methods.
andy suggests we set a date but not a type of voting. aren't we going to modify ping's condorcet implementation anyway? we promised to change it because it picks only one person. we all agree we need to consense on the code we use.
we will vote condorcet as long as the code is updated to elect five people so that it is available for review by the end of the year.
[edit] Discussion Items
- Handling press at Noisebridge
maybe we could have a workshop about press, how it works, how to handle it? we did this 6-9 months ago and it was awesome, let's do it again.
if someone starts asking questions, you can always refer them to our press kit [[1]] or press@ alias. a line lots of people use is "i am not in a position to speak for noisebridge"
how do we handle new visitors? is this similar? do we have or want a system for what we tell people, etc? Well, we have a poster. We haven't really agreed to anything in particular. it's great to do your own take on it.
- Noisebridge Cultural Reboot --Turkshead 01:33, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
reboot: must be superuser.
shannon: we are doing something wrong here. it is awesome here but we have been lacking a certain something. how do we get people back?
maybe the culture needs some shoring up. how can we make sure noisebridge is awesome. jesus thinks we need to make sure we provide value, if we are inspirational people will see more worth in our culture. We need to build this between ourselves.
also reducing the friction to donations. bigger button on the wiki?
miloh says no, we think about it wrong. members don't get something, they give something. they are the ones who are responsible.
we will have a noisebridge hackathon monthly, on second saturdays. please feel free to call a second one on a random day to make sure they happen more often.
check it: [[2]]
we could do more classes. mentoring! this is a type of teaching that we could do really uniquely.
what's our twitter? can more of us have access to it?
- Electric Heater
they're expensive. wear a sweater or talk to mike about alternate ways to heat yourself with technology. put your laptop in your lap.
- Clarification of drink/snack policy - John
Noisebridge should not purchase beverages. if you want to purchase beverages out of your own pocket with the intent of people donating for drinking them, feel free. it is questionable how efficient this is. maybe we should buy a crushing machine.
(Add any new items for consensus to the Current Consensus Items page.)
[edit] End of Meeting
- PGP Key Signing could happen now, check the list to see who wants in on the action.
- Put back the membership binder by the Shrine at the northeast corner.
- Save the meeting notes to the wiki.
- Send a copy of the meeting notes to the discussion list.
- Copy the Meeting Notes Template for next week's agenda and update the main wiki page's link to it.
- Enjoy a cocktail with your fellow hacker or robot.

UPDATED: County attorney remains suspended after hearing
Unlike Eames, Reams faces no criminal charges and has not been accused of any specific wrongdoing.
Ramsdell said during an interview Wednesday that Reams is "very much looking forward" to his day in court, and learning more about the allegations that set off the investigation.
Reams was notified about his suspension through an e-mail last Wednesday night, which contained a pair of letters from Foster and the county commissioners, according to court documents. He was also ordered to return any county property in his possession.
"By barring County Attorney Reams from the Rockingham County Attorney's Office and stripping him of his Rockingham County property, the commissioners directly interfered with County Attorney Reams' constitutional law enforcement obligations and duties to the citizens of Rockingham County," Ramsdell said in court papers.
"The decisions we made were based on what we were told by the attorney general and the U.S. attorney about the investigation," Coyle said. "We did not suspend him, but the office building is under the control of the commissioners. We did that at the request of the U.S. attorney and the attorney general."
Ramsdell said he disagrees that Foster or the commissioners have the authority to interfere with Reams' job status.
Ramsdell contends that a 2004 state Supreme Court decision about a dispute between Rockingham County commissioners and then-county sheriff Dan Linehan concluded that commissioners may not interfere with a constitutional officer's law enforcement duties.
Ramsdell also addressed recent criticism his client has endured in the wake of suspension, including his traveling to conferences, and reports that female employees complained to a Portsmouth state representative about a hostile work environment.
Ramsdell said organizations asking him to participate in conferences have paid Reams' travel expenses, and Reams has brought back valuable training to his employees.

"Simply fantastic"
Not really. I loved them both.
There were many. This is just an amazing book.
Everything. He is one of the best narrators I've ever heard. I can't help comparing others to him.
Yes, but it is far too long.
I'm at a bit of a loss for words in this review. This is one of my favorite books ever, both in print and audio. I've listened to it 3 times, and love it every time. Buy it.
"Good first book, good listen"
I read this book in print before buying the audio version, and enjoyed it immensely. Granted, it's not perfect, as it is the author's first book, but it was entertaining. Yes, the story does start to drag a bit about 3/4 of the way through, but not so much that I lost interest. Yes, the author does borrow elements from Chinese culture, not just Japanese. Yes, the author does perhaps use elements of the language incorrectly. But remember that this is a fantasy story, and as such does not need to be grounded in reality.
Jennifer Ikeda does an excellent job of the narration. At first, I was a bit concerned about her not being able to differentiate between characters well, but manages that well as I was never confused about who was speaking. She conveys their emotions just as well, and I think she is the perfect voice for Yukiko.
Overall, it's not perfect. But it was definitely worth the listen. It kept me absorbed and entertained, and I look forward to Book Two.
I think you should buy it and give it a chance.
"Good job, Audible!"
I was somewhat worried before buying this book, due in large part to the butchering Audible gave to the Dragonlance Chronicles, which, like this series, I'd read when I was younger. Also, I'd tried reading/listening to Salvatore's Neverwinter Saga, and found it overly dramatic and simple (considering it's a lead-in to a computer game, and I'd heard Salvatore wasn't too happy about writing it the way his publishers wanted, it may not be his best effort).
But, having loved this series and the Icewind Dale trilogy years ago, I decided to give it a shot in audio, wanting to re-experience these stories.
And I'm glad I did.
Victor Bevine's narration is very good- he conveys both the emotions of the characters and the urgency of a battle scene very well, and overall delivers a great listening experience. And, in my opinion, Salvatore's early work is superior to his later novels.
If you're expecting a lot of politicking and other "tedium" that can slow down other books, you may be disappointed. These books are fast-paced and action-packed. Salvatore's writing style is different from the likes of Jordan, Sanderson, and Erikson (all of whom I enjoy), but that is not a negative. They're just plain fun.
I can't wait for the next books to be released. And that doesn't happen too often.
"Great sci-fi trilogy"
I'd read this trilogy when it was originally published a few years ago. I generally don't read science fiction, being more of a fantasy geek, but the plot seemed interesting, so I bought it and loved it. Joel Shepherd is a great author: the plot, pacing, and characterizations are all quite good. So, my only question before buying this in audio, though I was very excited to see it available, was the narration.
My previous experience with Ms. Pearlman's narration was with "Polgara the Sorceress", which was a good book. I did not, however, care for the narration at all. She has a pleasant enough voice, she just mauled some of the pronunciations of some key places and/or people from the Belgariad series, one of my all time favorites. I couldn't finish it.
So I was nervous about buying this, but having enjoyed the print version so much, and wanting to experience it in audio, I bought it anyway.
She is better in this book, though at first I didn't think I'd be able to finish (which I haven't, but I'm halfway there). Chapter One was rough, she came across as emotionless and bland, and her descriptions were quite boring, not to mention rushed. She got better during Chapter Two, and really hit her stride in Chapter Three and beyond. She differentiates the characters quite well so you always know who's talking, and seems to be good at affecting different accents. She conveys the emotions of the characters very well, and picks up the pace of the narration during the action scenes effectively conveying the urgency of these scenes. It's not perfect, but all in all, I'm impressed, and plan on finishing this trilogy.
"Excellent so far..."
Well, I was surprised to find this on Audible early this morning, and a week before the book is officially released. I know writing a review before you finish a book annoys some people, so I can only review the 7 hours I've listened to so far, but I can say that those 7 hours have been excellent. If you listened to and/or read "The Warded Man" and "The Desert Spear" and enjoyed them, you're going to love this (and if you haven't, you should do so). The story is as absorbing as it was in the first two books, the writing is still great, and Pete Bradbury is an excellent narrator who is perfect for this series.
Do yourself a favor and buy it.
"Holy Crap!!"
Well, everything. It was great to see Harry alive again and reunited with his friends. And, of course, James Marsters back as narrator. I have to agree with many others, he IS the voice of Harry Dresden.
It was great. I didn't really see certain events toward the end of the book coming (Molly), and the implications could prove to be very interesting.
He's fantastic. What more can I say.
Yes, but saying more could give things away. Molly Carpenter was involved, and there was another moment with Karrin that was moving as well.
I have to say that the ending left me stunned. I didn't see it coming. Can't wait for the next book. Buy it!
"Great, absorbing listen..."
I'm planning to listen to this and "The Desert Spear" again at some point before "The Daylight War" comes out, though I've already listened to them twice. It's a good story coupled with great narration.
I personally like the part(s) when Arlen figures out how to use the wards to kick some ass. And he does. But the book as a whole is very good. And his interactions with Jardir are good, as well.
I would have to say the sense of hopelessness that the characters from Arlen's village feel, and he characterizes the toughness of the Krasians well. Though his vocal range isn't as varied as some narrators I've listened to, you still know when different characters are speaking. Overall, a great narrator for this series.
If I could, I would. But it's too long.
"Finally. The Hobbit and LOTR Unabridged on Audible"
Well, first, I would like to both thank Audible for finally making this available, and alternately curse them for doing so at a time when they're making so many other great books available (Gardens of the Moon, for one). Needless to say, all others will have to wait until I'm done listening to these.
Second, I have to admit that I've just started listening to it, but so far, I must say that I'm entirely impressed by Mr. Inglis' reading. Nice, clear voice, good differentiation of the different characters.
Third, like many others, I read "The Hobbit" and this trilogy as a pre-teenager about 30 years ago. I loved it. I honestly don't think you can consider yourself a fantasy fan if you haven't read these books. They are, simply put, amazing. I eagerly watched all the movies and was very impressed with those as well. Except for "The Hobbit", of course. Now, I finally have a chance to listen to them in audio, and unabridged!
Again, thank you Audible... now, if you could just get "Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn" by Tad Williams, I'd be even happier!
"Loved it. Both times."
Definitely one of my favorites. I read this series back in the '80's when I was a teen, and I love it now as much as I did then.
There isn't one particular moment. I enjoyed the entire book, as well as the rest of the Belgariad.
I thought his performance was fantastic. He has distinct voices for each character, and each fits the character well. He occasionally mixes them up, but it doesn't happen often, and doesn't ruin anything. Great narrator.
I guess it would be when Garion realizes that Belgarath is his "grandfather", though many generations removed. It was a nice moment, considering that Garion is an orphan.
"This isn't Disney..."
A lot of current fantasy is pretty dark and brutal, which I don't have a problem with, but it's nice to listen to something with a sense of humor. Not to say that there aren't dark moments, because there certainly are, but they are well balanced with lighter scenes.
When Talia (Sleeping Beauty) reveals what happened to her while she was asleep. It's one of the darkest parts of the book, but evokes (for me, anyway) a deep sympathy for the character, and gives insight into why she isn't one of the most trusting people. There was another moment involving her and Snow that was surprising, as well.
Well, at first I had some doubts about her, as she didn't seem to differentiate character voices much. But as the book moves along and she gets more comfortable with the characters, that changes. I thought the beginning was a bit rough, but I'm glad I stuck with it.
It would be nice, but it's just not possible.

Top Definition
A common behavior in Christian cultures. Consists of insisting how Christlike you are. A "Christier than thou" way of acting. This is used by many Christians whether they are generally nice people or disgusting POS's. The traits that practitioner will claim to have are usually called love, charity, compassion, caring or forgiveness. Some practitioners merely declare their Charitas publicly. Others take you to task publicly for your lack of Charitas. This trait is a central feature of American culture.
"American exceptionalism" is a close relation to Pseudocharitas. Thus Obama can mow down Pakistani children because everybody knows how Christian he is.

How does this compare to their windows driver?
Phoronix: The Latest Mesa 9.2 Results For Intel Haswell
With new code going into Mesa on a daily basis, here's the very latest benchmarks comparing the state of stable Mesa 9.1.3 against the Mesa 9.2 development code with all of the performance optimizations it brings to the Intel DRI driver for the latest-generation Haswell graphics hardware...
How does this compare to their windows driver?
@Michael would be cool if you could include some screen shots. I've been testing Mesa recently and the i965 driver has been producing some beautiful garbage on the screen.
Could you provide a bit more information (i.e. what game/program, driver version/hardware in use)? It would be great if you could file a bug on https://bugs.freedesktop.org. Thanks!
It seems to me Michael on purpose does not show a comparison to windows results.
It has been filed already. So I guess you'll get to it sometime... I've been just wondering whether it is really constrained to a single application and/or chipset. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65236
Ah! Thanks for the link, and especially the short apitrace! It looks like it works on Ivybridge at least - my guess is this bug only affects Gen4 and maybe Gen5. Hopefully I can take a look soon, though I won't have access to a GM45 for a few days.
Michael, I noticed that PTS still uses vdrift-2010-06-30. That's about two years out of date, and the 2010 version has a bug that makes it render mostly white on i965, so it isn't too useful. Would it be possible to update it to the 2012 release?

I was looking for a band that I could wear while deployed to the desert for 6 months. I'm used to wearing my beautiful engagement and wedding band that my husband brought me but didn't want to take it with me in case one of the diamonds got loose or something. I could not find a plain gold band that I liked. So I was searching around for an inexpensive band that I could wear and not worry about scratching or losing but still have a little sparkle after all I'm still a girly girl. While the diamonds in this ring are small it does sparkle and is very cute. I recommend this for anyone on a budget with petite fingers looking for a band that won't break the bank. Do not buy this ring if you are looking for big diamonds, but if you are looking for a little sparkle in a subtle way this one is for you!
My fiance bought 2 of these to use as my wedding ring/for either side of my engagement ring. Yes they are thin but I don't think they're any thinner than the photo depicts. They are sparkly and shiney and definitely wedding band quality. They are also a fraction of the price of similar rings in stores, as other reviewers have said. I can't wait to wear them! One more thing; someone else commented they do have a slight curve. I couldn't quite tell from the photos whether the ring was actually curved or whether that was the photo playing tricks on me but it's true; they are very slightly curved.
very beautiful ring. its soooo tiny.. but thats also what makes it so beautiful to the eye. i cant stop looking at it. the detail is amazing! my bf said it looks like a ring a princess would wear... awww.. how cute. =D
I absolutely LOVE this ring! I bought it was my wedding band, and I love it more than my engagement ring! The side detail looks so nice. If you are looking for a huge bling ring, this is not for you. It is a good quality ring for its price. This is a very dainty ring with a slight curve that really shines with the light. I'm thinking of buying another one to put on the other side of my ring when I get a chance!
Exactly as expected. This is a dainty little ring with a vintage look. Just what I wanted. The bend in the ring is almost hard to see, but it sits flush against my 3 stone engagement ring. The detail on the side is beautiful. I am very happy! I would suggest buying two to go on either side of an engagement ring.
Very pretty, looks expensive
Waste of money. Poor quality. Disappointing.
This is a wonderful ring! I would have loved to keep it. I used the sizing chart with my engagement ring. Unfortunately I should have just went with the size I thought I was. I was really hopeful this band would fit with my ring, however, it did not. I have since not found a band that will fit with my engagement ring. Other than those problems this ring was wonderful. Small, delicate, and beautiful!
I had lost my original band and my husband did not notice so I searched overstock and that was very similar to the one I had lost. Until now, my husband cannot tell the difference. Thanks again Overstock!!
Purchased as a 40th Anniversary band. Has a slight vintage look which is appropriate. I am very happy to have ordered the curved band. Goes well with band. If it keeps the sparkle for years to come I am totally satisfied..

Born out of love for vintage denim and its Americana roots , Current/Elliott respects the history of denim and its timelessness. A true visionary, CEO and Creative Director Serge Azria harmonizes new ideas with time-honored techniques. With its unique silhouettes, classic fits, and everlasting aesthetics, Current/Elliott delivers its customers more of what they have always loved; a distinct and timeless collection that promises to love and be loved for years to come
The super loved will fit different than other current Elliott's because they have the material listed wrong. I received my Super Loved jeans today and they are 90% cotton, 6% polyester. and 4% elastane. So I called and exchanged them for the Loved which they say the material is 99% cotton and 1% poly, these jeans are suppose to sit comfortably on hips and should be baggy in the crotch area. The super loved are more for people who want their jeans to be more fitted because of the material they are made with.
I usually wear a 28 (I'm 5'4") in most designer jeans (29 in JBrand skinnys!) and I ordered a 26 in these. They fit perfectly in the waist with a bit of room to spare, but unfortunately the legs were too form fitting and did not give the boyfriend look. They would have been great for everyday capris, but I don't like jean capri's! I sadly sent them back. It seems a 27 would be the best bet for the slouched look, but that would involve a belt everytime - something I am also not a fan of. The boyfriend jean hunt continues!
These can't compare to AG ex boyfriend crop jeans. I wear a 29 and 30 in ex boyfriend crop in 17 year wash and I bought these in a 28. The waist and crotch werr huge and the thighs were too form fitting. Plus, the leg opening is too narrow. This in my 3rd pair of CE jeans and none of them have worked. I'm done!

In The News - Devin Knight
Item Number: FL4797
A miniature version of the Copperfield Graffiti Wall that is suitable for both close-up and small platform shows.
Invite 3 people on stage. No stooges or impromptu coaching. Can be any 3 people. One is given an envelope to hold before the trick even begins. This envelope is never touched again by the performer till the trick is over.
Performer has three different newspapers face down on the table. The first spectator freely selects any newspaper. There is no force of any kind! He has a free choice of any one of the three newspapers. The front page of the freely chosen paper is now torn into 4 quarter sections. The spectator chooses a piece and is given the chance to change his mind. His selected quarter section is pinned to a 11 x 17 inch cork board.
Magician now introduces a deck of jumbo cards, shuffles them and showsthem to be a regular deck. A Card is selected from this deck.
The third spectator is shown a clear bag containing over 40 crayons. Crayons are both long and short styles. He is invited to reach into the bag and grab any crayon. This crayon is given to the 2nd spectator who draws a picture of his card on the newspaper pinned to the board.
The performer asks the person holding the envelope to open it and remove what is inside and hand it to performer. It is a folded sheet of newspaper. The envelope is torn open showing nothing else inside! When the paper is unfolded, it is seen to be the exact newspaper that was freely selected. Not only that the quarter section of the paper is identical to the one pinned to board.
On the paper is a drawing of the card the person had the performer stop on. If that isn't enough, your prediction is in the same color as the chosen crayon. A perfect 3 way match.

The thoracic outlet is the area of the lower neck and upper chest. This area has a variety of nerves, blood vessels, muscles and bones that run through a fairly small area. When the nerves and blood vessels of this area are compressed, irritated or injured they can cause a range of symptoms known as the thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS).
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Compression, injury, or irritation of nerves and blood vessels can be caused by:
Factors that may increase your chance of developing TOS include:
TOS may cause the following:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
During an elevated arm stress test, your doctor will ask you to hold your arms and head in positions that may cause the TOS symptoms to reappear. The results of these tests will help determine whether you have TOS and rule out other possible related conditions.
Other tests may include:
Images of internal body structures may be taken with:
Treatment varies depending on your specific symptoms. In most cases, TOS is managed with pain medication and physical therapy.
Your doctor may recommend the following:
A physical therapist will design some some exercises for you. The exercises will help to relieve symptoms by relaxing nearby muscles, improving posture and reducing pressure on nerves and blood vessels.
As part of your treatment, you may need to make lifestyle changes. Some of these may include:
If other treatments fail, your doctor may recommend surgery. The goal of surgery is to move or remove the source of the compression. In some people, this may involve removing part or all of the first rib to make more room for the nerves and blood vessels.
There are no current guidelines to prevent TOS.

As an act of true patriotism the drunk skank choked on his toy soldier while three other troops skewered that floppy eagle from every direction.

A Chinese Instacart clone raises $100 million
Dmall takes grocery orders online and employs workers who buy the items in supermarkets and delivery them quickly to consumers.
An inside look at the weekly m-commerce index.
Last week we received a comment from a reader questioning the reliability of the Keynote Mobile Commerce Performance Index. Mobile and web performance management firm Keynote Systems Inc. provides this index exclusively to Internet Retailer every week. The index measures m-commerce home page site performance, both the load time (the amount of time it takes to download all elements of the page from the server to the smartphone) and the success rate (the percentage of times a page downloads successfully). The index is a great resource for retailers in m-commerce to use as a benchmark to guide their performance efforts and to learn from others.
The reader said the index is "in no way representative of the mobile retailer space." Actually, Keynote Systems executives and I thoroughly scanned the mobile market to come up with retailers of different sizes (from Amazon.com Inc. to Toolfetch.com LLC), from different product categories (from J.C. Penney Co. Inc. to Victoria's Secret to Walgreen Co.), and from different channels (from web-only merchant Overstock.com Inc. to TV and web retailer ShopNBC.com to retail chain Staples Inc.). This is an excellent cross-section of retailers, 30 in all, in the mobile space.
The reader went on to say that "some notable exceptions are missing from this list" and that "in the future I'd like to see a much more comprehensive list." His letter was quite timely. Last week, after weeks of testing, we doubled the size of the index from 15 to 30. Again we added a good cross-section, including some more heavy hitters. As for "notable exceptions," as with any list, people will have their own ideas of who they think should be on a list, and an index is designed to be representative, not all-inclusive. (The Dow Jones Industrial Average, for example, only tracks 30 stocks.) The 30 retailers on the weekly Keynote index really run the gamut of mobile commerce and show the range of site performance.
The reader wanted to know where the methodology was. It always is spelled out clearly in the last two paragraphs of the story. The reader then asked a technical question: "Android Chrome browser and Safari iOS have two different ways of rendering web pages, how can you ensure consistency in testing results?" Keynote responds, "We do not capture and include client rendering time in the index data because it varies not only because of different browsers but also because of physical characteristics and conditions of the device, such as CPU power, the number of background tasks, etc. By not including the rendering time, the index data reports the best load time possible for all sites equally." In other words, the index doesn't measure the time it takes the phone to render a mobile web page, thus avoiding the issue of how to measure rendering time consistently.
And finally the reader asks, "How can you compare a site like StrandBooks.com to a more full-featured mobile site like Amazon?" That's part of the point of the list, to see how different sites and different approaches to m-commerce compare and contrast. This list isn't just for smaller retailers, who are on a budget, or bigger retailers, who have millions to spend. This list is for everybody. A reader can look at the list and learn that a heavier home page can take more time to load; conversely, a lighter home page can take less time. A reader can look at those times and then pull up the sites on her smartphone and judge for herself how her m-commerce site should look compared with how much it should weigh in kilobytes. There are many lessons to be learned.
Keynote Systems is a highly reputable performance measurement and management firm that has worked with Internet Retailer to provide this excellent resource for readers. And for many more resources, click on the Trends + Data tab above. We're here to serve you, the reader.

When Keldeo brashly challenges Kyurem to a battle, it dominates the fight, easiy deflecting or dodging Keldeo's attacks, and the Boundary Pokémon ultimately breaks off Keldeo's horn with Shadow Claw. When Terrakion attacks Kyurem with Hyper Beam in an attempt to defend Keldeo, Kyurem deflects it then freezes the Swords of Justice with Ice Burn to prevent them from interferring with the battle. Keldeo then runs away during the middle of the fight out of fear, and Kyurem gives chase, determined to finish their battle.
Keldeo stumbles on the train that Ash and his friends are on, while Kyurem and his Cryogonal henchmen catch up and attack Keldeo, but they are repelled by Ash and his friends.
Kyurem pursues them and attacks them several times, only for them to be distractioned by Iris and Cilan. Eventually, Keldeo and Kyurem face off where they first met, and, despite Keldeo giving it its all, Kyurem retains the upper hand until Keldeo learns the move Secret Sword. When protecting its friends from a stray Freeze Shock attack, Keldeo takes major damage, making Kyurem the victor. Instead of finishing the battle, however, Kyurem respects Keldeo's courage and states that it was better to lose a battle than to lose one's friends.

The act of reactivating the foul methane stench permanently locked into an office chair. Usually occurring every time a person sits down in the chair.
If you guys want the Muhl there, he can come. I just don't want it to be awkward. I mean, that guy has had to sit in my old methane saturated chair for a while now, and he probably curses me every time he sits down, fruffing the stench from his cushion. If he shows up, he will know exactly who he curses. I just don't want trouble.

furry pads either side of an animal's nose, from which whiskers emerge.
Most mammals have fruffs on their faces, although primates (humans, chimpanzees, etc) are some of the very few that do not. Fine examples of fruffs can be seen on the faces of domestic cats and dogs. It is possible to judge the approximate age of a cat by the appearance of its fruffs, since older cats have squarer fruffs. They may then be said to be leofruffular (having the fruffs of a lion).

Angels have tough test against A's, red-hot Colon
Williams out for redemption in rematch of Sunday's contest
Though the Angels were all smiles after Thursday's 8-3 win against the A's, things could change drastically come Friday's contest in Oakland.
That's because Bartolo Colon will be on the hill for the A's. Not only did the right-hander carve up the Halos last season, going 2-1 with a 1.66 ERA in three starts, he dominated them in one start this season.
Facing the Angels on Sunday, Colon had his best outing of the season, tossing a four-hit shutout. He also struck out two and walked five for his 13th victory of the season.
"He just knows how to pitch. He made pitches," Angels outfielder J.B. Shuck said after Sunday's game. "He knew what he needed to do to get outs, located well and made pitches when he had to."
The 40-year-old has tossed six or more innings and allowed three runs or fewer in each of his last 13 starts, which is the second longest such streak by an A's pitcher since at least 1916. He's also 10-1 with a 1.62 ERA during that stretch.
Meanwhile, Angels right-hander Jerome Williams will be out for a little payback after getting roughed up by Oakland in his last start.
He allowed six runs (four earned) on eight hits in five innings of work on Sunday for his sixth loss of the season. Pitching into the fifth inning just once in July, Williams' ERA has ballooned from 3.21 to 4.73.
However, Williams and manager Mike Scioscia felt he had a better rhythm throughout the game, something he had trouble with at the beginning of the month.
"I thought he threw the ball well," Scioscia said after the contest. "If you look at the line score, it doesn't look really healthy, but I thought Jerome threw the ball very well. He had both sides of the plate going, just not a lot of luck."
Angels: Gutierrez ready to help bullpen
After being cut by the Royals on July 14 and then claimed off waivers by the Angels on Wednesday, reliever J.C. Gutierrez is ready to make his mark in the bullpen.
"It was a lot of time gone after I got designated for assignment," Gutierrez said. "I was thinking a lot and talking to my agent. He said, 'Be good, keep working hard and someone will claim you.'"
On Thursday, the Angels guaranteed him a spot in their bullpen, designating right-hander Billy Buckner for assignment in order to create room on the active roster.
They wasted no time using him, having him pitch the ninth inning of Thursday's game, in which he allowed one hit.
A's: Vogt recalled
Oakland placed catcher John Jaso on the seven-day disabled list with a concussion and recalled catcher Stephen Vogt from Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.
Jaso exited Wednesday's series finale against the Astros in the eighth inning with a headache after he was hit in the mask by a foul tip for the third time in four games.
"Nowadays, there's more evidence and more scrutiny put upon those types of things," A's manager Bob Melvin said. "In the past, you kind of just played through these things and I think it's shown with some injuries, head injuries in the past, that you do need to be more careful with it."
Melvin said he anticipates the seven days will be enough for Jaso to recuperate. He must spend a minimum of seven days on the DL, and he will be transferred to the 15-day DL if he hasn't healed after 14 days.
Worth noting
• Angels starter Jason Vargas (blood clot in left armpit area) is closer to getting in a rehab assignment than Sean Burnett (left elbow impingement), but it's still "going to take a little more work for Jason," Scioscia said. Both continue to throw bullpen sessions.
• The A's have scored 62 runs in 10 games against the Angels this year.
• Colon is 11-6 with a 3.17 ERA in 22 career starts against the Angels.

Replenish Hydrating Facial Cleanser
This product has a milky texture that slips over skin and removes makeup efficiently.
Exfoliating Facial Cleanser
This is a standard water-soluble cleanser that contains 15% glycolic acid.
Add to Faves?
Vivité At-A-Glance
Strengths: Fragrance-free; good selection of pH-correct AHA products with effective amounts of glycolic acid; good water-soluble cleansers.
Weaknesses: Expensive; the sole sunscreen option does not provide sufficient UVA protection; using the company's recommended routine will result in AHA overload; jar packaging won't keep ingredients stable.
Vivité (pronounced 'Vee-va-tay') is a small skin-care line developed and owned by Allergan, the pharmaceutical company behind Botox and the lash-enhancing drug Latisse, among other products. This isn't the first time Allergan has forayed into the skin-care market; they previously partnered with Clinique on that company's "Medical" product line. Clinique Medical is medical in name only, and there isn't anything medicinal or pharmaceutical about Vivité, either. These products aren't akin to getting dermatologist-strength results at home. Besides, dermatologist-strength skin-care products are not sold without a prescription, so the whole notion is nothing more than a marketing sham. So, please don't buy into that hype.
The main reason to consider Vivité products is if you're interested in well-formulated, pH-correct alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) products. Several Vivité products contain effective blends of glycolic acid and ammonium glycolate. Although glycolic acid is a great way to exfoliate skin and offers multiple benefits for sun-damaged skin, it isn't the only ingredient you should focus on. Skin care at any age is much more complex than simply supplying one key ingredient. For example, despite glycolic acid's multiple benefits, it cannot protect your skin from sunlight, it doesn't rebuild skin's healthy barrier on its own, and it cannot defend skin from oxidative damage. Think of skin care as you would a healthy diet, if you ate only one type of food you wouldn't be healthy for long; skin acts the same way. Skin is a complex organ that requires a complex array of substances to function in a younger manner and to be as healthy and normal as possible.
Allergan took an interesting angle with Vivité, using something called GLX Technology™. They have the patent on this and they claim it will partially neutralize the glycolic acid so that the acid releases into the skin over an extended period of time and at a pH closer to that of our skin, which is about 5 to 5.5. While that sounds like a gentler way to use AHAs (because the pH is closer to that of our skin), research shows that AHAs have optimal exfoliation when formulated in a base with a pH less than 4. As it turns out, all of the Vivité products with glycolic acid have a pH of 3.8, which means you can ignore the point-of-difference about pH and GLX Technology™—it certainly seems that Allergan did—and be assured that these products will exfoliate as claimed (Sources: Dermatologic Surgery, February 2005, pages 149–154; and Cosmetic Dermatology, October 2001, pages 15–18).
Allergan wants you to think their AHA products have an edge, but they don't. However, their leave-on AHA products will certainly exfoliate skin and also provide AHAs' other benefits, though some precautions are warranted, as you'll see in the reviews.
For more information about Vivité, owned by Allergan, call (877) 345-5372 or visit www.viviteskincare.com.
