9/8/14 Joan Rivers Funeral
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, September 8, 2014
TONS of celebrities showed up for JOAN RIVERS' funeral yesterday, including Whoopi Goldberg, Kathy Griffin, Rosie O'Donnell, Barbara Walters and Kelly Osbourne with her slightly more famous parents. Howard Stern gave a eulogy, and there was a musical performance from Hugh Jackman.
Some terrible Ohio teenagers pulled a reprehensible "prank" on a 14-year-old autistic classmate, who'd been challenged to that ALS Ice Bucket thing. Instead of ice water, these A-HOLES dumped a bucket with urine, feces, spit, and cigarette butts over him. Now, DREW CAREY is offering a $10,000 reward for anyone who helps identify these kids, so they can be brought to justice.
BILL MURRAY caught a cab in Oakland last week, and when he learned the cabbie was a sax player, he took the wheel himself so the guy could sit in the back and play. Bill says, quote, "It was great and it made for a beautiful night."
KIM KARDASHIAN won't deny she's filmed herself having sex with KANYE WEST. She says, quote, "If we have, it's never something I want to go public . . . Let's just say we do like to have fun. Have we made another? . . . What we do privately is private. I think let's just leave it at that."
GEORGE CLOONEY let a few details slip about his wedding to Amal Alamuddin. While receiving a humanitarian award at an event in Tuscany Friday night, he said, quote, "I met my lovely bride to be here in Italy, whom I will be marrying in a couple of weeks, in Venice, of all places."

JOAN RIVERS died yesterday afternoon, one week after she went into cardiac arrest and stopped breathing during surgery on her vocal cords. She was 81. Her daughter MELISSA said, quote, "My mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon."
Rumor has it SHERRI SHEPHERD is worried that her estranged husband will leak the racy shots she's sent him over the years. An "insider" says, quote, "It was a long distance relationship, so to keep things hot, Sherri would send naked pictures of herself to Lamar. She deeply regrets [it now]."
SCARLETT JOHANSSON gave birth to her baby girl. We don't know when . . . but her publicist made the announcement yesterday, saying, quote, "Mother and daughter are doing well." Scarlett is 29. This is the first child for Scarlett and her fiancé Romain Dauriac, who's a French journalist. They named her Rose Dorothy.
ALYSSA MILANO gave birth to a baby girl yesterday . . . her second child with husband David Bugliari. They named Her Elizabella Dylan. Their son Milo is 3 years old. Alyssa is 41.

In a 19-Tweet rant, NICK CANNON called the media "evil bottom feeders" . . . then he lashed out against rumors that he left MARIAH CAREY because she's a bad mother. He said, quote, "I will forever be indebted to her for blessing me with our children . . . [She] is an amazing Mother and I trust her wholeheartedly . . . I love [Mariah] and that will never change!!!"
JESSICA SIMPSON knows her husband ERIC JOHNSON loves her . . . because he's seen her body go through a lot of changes, and he's still there. She says, quote, "Eric has seen me at every size, and he loves me no matter what. When I got pregnant with Ace four months after having Maxwell, I was nervous about starting over again . . . and felt overwhelm[ed]. Eric was so supportive and challenged me to accept my insecurities and focus on what truly matters. I feel stronger than ever, and Eric's unconditional love has been a reminder of the love I should give myself."
There's good news and bad news to report on JOAN RIVERS. The good news is, she's out of intensive care. The bad news: Sources say she's still on life support. Her daughter MELISSA issued a brief statement yesterday saying, quote, "My mother has been moved out of intensive care and into a private room where she is being kept comfortable. Thank you for your continued support."
At least one website is refusing to take down some of those nude, hacked photos of JENNIFER LAWRENCE . . . because they claim she has no right to demand it. That's because some of those pictures aren't selfies. And the website claims the rights to those photos would actually belong to whoever TOOK them. They want Jennifer to either prove she owns the pictures, or name the photographer.
BRAD PITT and ANGELINA JOLIE "only" got $2 million from "People" for their wedding pictures. They got $11 million for the first shots of their twins back in 2008, but the magazine market has changed a lot since then.
9/3/14 Brangelina Wedding Details
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, September 3, 2014
Imagine you spent thousands of dollars on a Versace wedding gown, and before you could even put it on to walk down the aisle, your six kids scribbled all over it. Now imagine you spent thousands of dollars for a Versace wedding gown that already had your six kids' scribbles EMBROIDERED INTO IT. Yeah, that's what ANGELINA JOLIE did. The kids didn't just decorate Angelina's dress. They were a huge part of the occasion. They each, quote, "picked their clothes and their duties." For 10-year-old Pax, those duties included making the cake. Angelina says, quote, "I wanted the kids to be a part of everything including the dress, because that's our family. That represents the way we live out life together . . . They are our best friends and the people closest to us in our lives."
TOM BRADY admits that he acts like a BIG FRICKIN' BABY when he wants attention from his wife GISELE BUNDCHEN. He says, quote, "I like attention from her, so when I'm not getting it I let her know in immature ways, like a young, immature child would. You throw fits and you pout and you whine until you get what you want."
JUSTIN BIEBER was arrested Friday for dangerous driving and assault, after he got into a physical altercation with the paparazzi while four-wheeling in Canada. Sources say Justin ran his four-wheeler into a minivan driven by the paparazzi, then got into it with one of them. Justin is already on probation in L.A. for egging his neighbor's house.
MILEY CYRUS has a new tattoo that says "Love Your Brain." But when asked if she thinks smoking weed hurts her brain, she said, quote, "You know what hurts your brain? Googling yourself. You know what hurts your brain? Instagram . . . [and] reading [abusive] comments on Facebook."
9/2/14 Celeb Nude Pics Stolen
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, September 2, 2014
A MASSIVE amount of celebrity nudes hit the web over the weekend . . . including Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Selena Gomez, Hilary Duff, Kirsten Dunst, and Lea Michele. Apparently someone hacked into the Apple iCloud, and stole photos people had taken on their phones and backed up online. And there's word that there could be MORE. The FBI and Apple are both looking into it.
JENNY MCCARTHY and DONNIE WAHLBERG got married Saturday near Chicago. Guests included fellow NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK Joey McIntyre, Danny Wood, and brothers Jordan and Jonathan Knight . . . plus Sherri Shepherd, who was let go from "The View" along with Jenny. Donnie's brother MARK wasn't there, but he sent a congratulatory video.
ASHLEE SIMPSON married DIANA ROSS's son EVAN Sunday at her home in Greenwich, Connecticut. Diana even officiated the ceremony. Ashlee is 29, Evan is 26.
GABRIELLE UNION married Miami Heat star DWYANE WADE at the Chateau Artisan in Miami on Saturday. He's 32, she's 41.
Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like JOAN RIVERS' condition improved over the weekend. Word has it she's on LIFE SUPPORT, but that hasn't been confirmed. Her daughter MELISSA RIVERS merely said, quote, "We are keeping our fingers crossed."

I have added a magazine scan with Elizabeth in it to the gallery! The magazine article is talking about the Twilight short films that will be released in 2015 on Facebook.
Elizabeth's co-star from The Money Shot posted this picture of Elizabeth and the cast in the dressing room and you can see the picture here on the site! Are you going to the final show?
Last time in the dressing room @mcctheater with @FrederickWeller @calliopethorne & @reasereaser My heart is full. pic.twitter.com/9Xg6kIfC9Z
— Gia Crovatin (@giacrovatin) October 19, 2014
I have also added some new Instagram photos of Elizabeth's which you can see here!
I have added new Instagram and fan photos to the gallery! Thanks to @lbinthevalley for letting me use your 2 photos! ♥
A video of Elizabeth in The Money Shot has been released and you can watch it here on the site! I love this video and have watched it like 5 times! I wish I could see the play! What do you think of the video?
The Money Shot's opening was last night and you can see pictures and video from it! You see Elizabeth in the video around 4:43.
I have also added more photos from the play and some of Elizabeth's new Instagram photos!
The site now has a new affiliates which are Admiring Dakota Fanning (Elizabeth's Twilight co-star) and Jared Leto Vault!
A video has been released of The Money Shot cast talking about the play! Be sure to check it out!
Theater Mania has posted a review of the play and also says good things about Elizabeth!
Reaser was sent into the trenches with only two weeks of rehearsal as an unexpected replacement. Yet, even with this disadvantage, she is perfection as Karen, a self-proclaimed Margo Channing with hardly enough clout to even be a washed-up starlet. Her faux-aristocratic (and easily insufferable) affectation is supported by sharp comic timing, which she showcases in an emotionally unhinged monologue (a LaBute specialty) lamenting L.A. traffic.
Elizabeth did a interview with Theater Mania.Com about The Money Shot! She also talks about her love of theater and other plays she would like to do.
What was it like to come into a brand-new play like The Money Shot two weeks into rehearsals?
It was very, very intimidating coming in under those circumstances. I've never done that. It's hard to even describe what missing two weeks of rehearsal is like. It sounds like "only two weeks," but it's in dog years. I missed all the table work, the beginning stages of blocking, the talking to the playwright and director, and the bonding. The work of those first two weeks is so important. And also, just memorizing all those words…it's very crazy.
How did you get through it?
I love to rehearse. I don't know if it would have been possible without a perfect piece of writing and our director, Terry Kinney. I came in, we had one table read, and then we immediately got onto our feet and started blocking. They were giving me a map of what had been the blocking and what they wanted the blocking to be, and we went from there. The more we did that, the more we started finding things. That's what's incredible about Terry: It still felt like I was getting to explore, and he made me feel like we had time, even though I had a clock ticking. And it was desperate and scary, but he made it really fun. It's such an incredible group of people. At this point, it has settled down a bit. I think I've caught up.
What interested you most about the play and your character, Karen?
I'm a big fan of Neil LaBute. I've always been a huge fan and I've known him for a long, long time. I just love his voice and I just thought it was hilarious. And also, it's different in some ways [from his other plays]. I always think he's hilarious; [his plays] can be very dark, but very, very funny. This play is more of a comedy than anything else. That's what he's billing it as. It's different than some of his other works, but it's still very LaButian.
You recently tweeted that at your childhood home in Michigan, you had a license plate on your wall that says "NY-ACTRESS." Is doing theater in New York your dream come true?
It really is. That's where that tweet came from. This is what I've always wanted to do… I remember being in New York with my dad and my little sister and seeing that license plate, one of those knickknacks that they sell in one of those shops, and I made my dad buy it for me. It's still on the wall in my old bedroom at my dad's house.
Do you have any bucket-list stage roles you'd like to play?
I do. Some of them I've outgrown. One is Abigail from The Crucible, and that's not gonna happen. I'd love to do Much Ado About Nothing, The Scottish Play, any of the Chekhovs. Long Day's Journey Into Night… I think I have some time.
Don't rush playing Mary Tyrone.
[laughs] I don't want to rush that one. I read that, I think, in high school and from that moment on I was dying to play that role.
Is there more theater in your future, or are you going from this to more screen projects?
Hopefully, more theater. I don't have any commitments when this ends. I'm gonna relax a little bit. I had just come from another job, so I've been running around, which is really great. It's good not to have time to think about it sometimes. At least that's what I'm telling myself.
Production shots of Elizabeth in The Money Shot have been released and Elizabeth looks beautiful! Be sure to look at the pictures in the gallery!
The Money Shot schedule has been extended through October 19 which is awesome because you will have more chances to see the show! You can get tickets here!
Elizabeth is going to be in two new projects! They are Hello, My Name Is Dorris and One and Two! I read previously that Elizabeth was going to be a part of these projects but didn't know it was official until now.
A self-help seminar inspires a sixty-something woman to romantically pursue her younger co-worker.
One & Two follows a family of four who live peacefully in purposeful isolation in a mysterious farmhouse, where siblings Zac and Eva begin to explore unusual abilities and dark family secrets when their mother falls ill.
I am not sure who Elizabeth is playing in these new movies but hopefully more news will be released soon! Congratulations on these new movies Elizabeth!
I have also added new pictures from Elizabeth's Instagram and Twitter and you can see them here in the gallery!
Art from The Money Shot has been released and I have added it all to the gallery! It kind of reminds me of The Ex List! Are you doing to see the play?
Elizabeth is going to be in the play The Money Shot! You can read a synopsis of the play below!
In The Money Shot, Karen (Reaser) and Steve (Weller) are glamorous movie stars with one thing in common: desperation. It's been years since either one's had a hit, but the latest movie by a hot shot European director could change that. The night before filming a big scene (that seems destined to assure them a spot back on the pop culture radar), Karen, her partner Bev (Thorne), Steve, and his aspiring actress wife Missy (Crovatin) meet in order to make an important decision: how far will they let themselves go to keep from slipping further down the Hollywood food chain?
The official play opening is set for September 22 and it is scheduled to continue until October 12! You can buy your tickets now at MCC Theater's website!
Congratulations Elizabeth!!!

One player is dead and another faces DUI and manslaughter charges. Last weekend left defensive tackle Josh Brent, 24, was arrested after an alcohol-related crash left his friend, Jerry Brown, a 25-year old practice squad linebacker, dead. Clearly, the Dallas Cowboys have bigger problems off the field than they have on it.And perhaps the same can be said of every professional sports team who have a majority of players who tend to drink. Too many drink too much and make bad decisions; like getting behind the wheel of their vehicle.Irving Police spokesman John Argumaniz said this was not Brent's first DUI. He pleaded guilty to a drunken driving charge three years ago at Illinois, where both he and Brown played football....

The ASPCA has been in Sandy-affected areas since the storm rescuing animals, reuniting them with their families, distributing critical supplies and providing critical veterinary care. The need was great right after the storm, and it's only growing now as more families' homes become uninhabitable and cold weather sets in. That's why we're continuing to expand our response to Sandy.
For the thousands of families without power, running water or even homes a week and a half after Superstorm Sandy, the ASPCA can't unload our pet supply trucks fast enough. Everywhere our trucks stop, we are met by a crowd of needy pet parents who eagerly snap up the supplies before we can pull away to the next distribution point.
Pets are all many families have left, and they are eager to take good care of them in spite of all they've lost. To date, we have distributed thousands of pounds of pet food and cat litter to areas of extreme need, and we are ramping up this effort and fielding more requests every day.
Our grants department is fielding requests of a different sort: pleas for help from shelters and other animal welfare groups affected by Sandy. We're expediting the process so these groups get the help they need immediately.
If you live far from the affected area, please don't look away from this catastrophe now. Animals and their pet parents need our help desperately, and we're working around the clock to meet their needs. To date, we have helped nearly 6,000 animals, and we don't expect this operation to wind down any time soon.
If you would like to contribute to our disaster relief fund, you can make a gift here. Every cent will go to ASPCA disaster relief efforts.
For updates on the ASPCA's response to Sandy and its repercussions, please keep an eye on the ASPCA blog and follow the ASPCA on Twitter.
is there any need for used dog coats and blankets? Is there somewhere we can send them to the effected areas to help keep the pets warm?
My daughters field hockey team is having their banquet next weekend. We would like to ask everyone to bring something for the pets in need. Is there an address or a point of contact we could send things to?
We Can Foster A Displaced Dog From Hurricane Sandy

Hi, my son owns a pet salon and we would like to donate by asking our customers to give either money ,food,blankets toys etc. who do we contact and how do we send our basket of love to our furry friends?
I think what the ASPCA is doing is wonderful; I have donated to your Disaster Relief fund to help animals in peril and humans who need pet supplies, food, litter, etc.
I know my donation will be well-used by the reputable ASPCA and have complete confidence that your org. will continue to help no matter the ruts in the road to complete relief.
Jaime Smith
I didn't see an address to mail things other than money? Things for the animals?
I may be able to foster a displaced cat. I already have a cat so the mix would have to work. I am sure there are a lot of cats in need so I would like to help if I can. I know if this was me I would want my fur baby safe, fed, happy and out of the cold. I do not have any money but I can help feed another cat. My cat is male and 8 years old.
Thank you for all you do..
My heart goes out to all those little fur-people who were lost
or hurt during the storm....
I will send a donation
Good Job!!!
The ASPCA does such great work...keep it up. Used to live back East, and am so glad that pets and their parents have you to take care of them...

Software implementation of the OpenAL API (shared library)
OpenAL, the Open Audio Library, is a joint effort to create an open, vendor-neutral, cross-platform API for interactive, primarily spatialized audio. OpenAL's primary audience are application developers and desktop users that rely on portable standards like OpenGL, for games and other multimedia applications.
This library is meant as a compatible update/replacement to the OpenAL Sample Implementation (the SI). The SI has been unmaintained for quite a while, and would require a lot of work to clean up. This is a fork the old Windows version to attempt an accelerated ALSA version of an OpenAL implementation.
OpenAL Soft supports mono, stereo, 4-channel, 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 output, as opposed to the SI's 4-channel max (though it did have some provisions for 6 channel, this was not 5.1, and was seemingly a "late" addition). OpenAL Soft does not support the Vorbis and MP3 extensions, however those were considered deprecated even in the SI. It does, though, support some of the newer extensions like AL_EXT_FLOAT32 and AL_EXT_MCFORMATS for multi-channel and floating-point formats, as well as ALC_EXT_EFX for environmental audio effects, and others.
This package installs the OpenAL Soft shared library.

To make an appointment for private training, evaluations, private gym or parties:
Welcome to the Zoom Room Walnut Creek, providing exceptional dog training and the best in dog retail products for East Bay dogs and their owners. We offer positive dog training in group or private classes in an indoor, climate-controlled facility. You can also rent the facility for birthday parties, meet-up groups or special events. Or stop by for Private Gym, a chance to get in some quality exercise time with your dog!
We offer small group training in agility, obedience, puppy, and a wide range of enrichment classes. We use only positive dog training methods. All of our classes use a level system. Levels training is a flexible, personalized approach to dog training designed for the busy owner. You work at your own pace, and graduate to the next level when you and your dog are ready to move up. You can attend class as frequently as you like, or skip a week or two if your schedule changes. You'll never fall behind because everyone in class is at the same level working on the same skills. All students start at Basic Manners after attending the Orientation, and will be "graduated" to the next level when the instructor determines the dog and handler have mastered the skills needed to move on. If you're not able to enroll in a class, it's due to not having yet attained that needed prerequisite. You can click on the name of any class in the schedule to view a description of the class as well as all prerequisites.
Our Orientation sessions are FREE, last a half hour, and are to be attended without your dog present.
Want to place out of a class? Of course not every dog that comes to the Zoom Room needs to start off with Basic Manners. Many clients have dogs who are extremely accomplished and thus able to jump ahead in the levels. No problem! All you need to do is schedule a thirty-minute Evaluation with us so we can ascertain your dog's current skill level and make training recommendations. If you book an evaluation you do NOT need to attend the Orientation class. And if you have two dogs, they can both attend the Evaluation at no additional cost.
We also offer a variety of specialized workshops which require a six-week commitment.
We offer private training throughout the week in obedience, agility, puppy training, and any other special forms of training you might have in mind. Agility and Puppy training are always conducted in half hour sessions. Obedience training should begin with a one-hour private session; after that your follow-up sessions can be either a half-hour or an hour. Have two dogs? We also offer special rates on Private Training for Two Dogs. If you'd like to book a time not listed, please call us at (925) 322-0667 to check availability.
We require current vaccination records (DHPP, rabies & bordetella) for every dog who enters our gym area. You can scan them in and email them to us, have your veterinarian fax them to us, bring them in in person — or easiest of all:
Private Gym is like an indoor dog park – one with great music, lots of toys and an agility course, free direct trade coffee, and all of the other amenities you could hope for in a wonderful smelling, spotless, climate-controlled environment! You can even come with your friends – up to three dogs per half-hour session. It's a great chance to get in some off-leash exercise or play time with your dog, or to practice your agility or other training.
Birthday Parties and Doggy Disco®. You can throw a birthday party for your dog, or for your dog-loving kids, or an anniversary party for the day you rescued your dog. Or just about any other occasion for which you'd love to throw a party with lots of dogs in attendance as well as your friends and family. We can help with all aspects of the event – catering, decor, music, you name it! Our parties include a free mini-agility lesson for all your guests, set-up, clean-up, supervision, plates, cups, cutlery, and of course our famous Doggy Disco® with your choice of music and laser lights on the floor for the dogs to chase. We also have loads of delicious additional options to choose from, including Doggy Donuts, frozen yoghurt, hats, invitations, gift bags and other treats to make the event unforgettable.
We also host events for Meetup groups, rescue organizations, charity fundraisers, companies, civic groups, singles mixers, and so on. If you're interested in throwing such an event with us, please simply give us a call or visit us in person to discuss the details. You can also read about our incredibly rewarding ongoing work with a wide variety of rescue organizations.
Our weekly Agility League is incredibly fun – great friendly competition with trophies & prizes.
We have an enormous assortment of eco-friendly toys & puzzles, all-natural treats & chews, collars, leashes, bedding, and the best solution-oriented training equipment you can find anywhere. None of it is available for online purchase, so please stop in and see us to check out our offerings — many of them not available anywhere but the Zoom Room!
Not sure what class to take? Or maybe you're shopping for a friend? Why not give the gift of a well-behaved dog?! We offer Gift Certificates in any denomination. You can even schedule your gift to arrive on your friend's birthday or any other special occasion.

All matriculating, undergraduate students, regardless of credit hours, and all matriculating, graduate students enrolled in nine or more credit hours will be charged for health insurance.
Online courses are not considered eligible credits. Students who have comparable health insurance may apply on SIS to waive the charge. Please note that all students who withdraw from or drop all of their classes within the first 31 calendar days of the academic semester will not be allowed to be enrolled in the University Student Health Insurance Plan.
Health Insurance for Currently Enrolled Students
Health insurance is mandatory and is available through the university for those who are unable to prove they have equal or better coverage. The insurance plan offered through the University is recommended because it covers students on or off campus, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and is in effect for a full year, beginning on August 1. This program is offered by Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. It is required for International Students and is not available to on-line only students. Learn more about the University Health Insurance Plan on the Gallagher Student website.
If you belong to a managed care plan, or other private insurance; check to see if they will cover lab tests and prescriptions ordered by Health Services. Most will not, and students, often unable to leave school to go to their primary care provider for care, must pay themselves. In addition, if you will be living outside your insurance coverage area while attending UMass Lowell, Massachusetts law requires that you MUST either choose a primary care provider (PCP) in the Lowell area or enroll in the University's Student Insurance Plan. More information about this state law is found on our additional health insurance information page.
On-line Students
Students who are enrolled exclusively in on-line classes are not eligible for this plan.
International Students
As authorized under the insurance laws for higher education, students in Massachusetts (section 275 of Chapter 151 of the Acts of 1996), the University of Massachusetts Lowell requires that all international students must enroll in the University's Student Health Insurance Plan.
Student Health Insurance Coordinator
Questions about the University Health Insurance Plan should be directed to the Insurance Coordinator, Jeanne Michaud at 978-934-4992 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Office Hours: Monday, Thursday 8:30 a.m. - 4 p.m., Friday 8:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.
Questions about the health insurances charge or health insurance waiver should be directed to the Student Financial Services Office at 978-934-3570.
Health Insurance Options After Graduation
Graduating seniors' school insurance plan coverage terminates on July 31. The new Health Care Law provides options for finding the best health plan for graduating seniors.
Some benefits now available:
Options for obtaining health insurance coverage after graduating are:
Who To See for Medical or Mental Health Issues
If you have school insurance, you should be seen in the Wellness Center (978-934-6800) for any medical or mental health problem. Please note that there is a $150 deductible for an emergency room visit, if you are not admitted to the hospital.

I didn't do much, but I did eat a lot of pupusas (Salvadoran stuffed corn tortillas traditionally served with curtido, pickled cabbage slaw), which is a good way to pass the time as any. MORE »

NIST's cyber framework moves toward implementation stage
Wednesday - 10/23/2013, 4:10am EDT
After eight months, the National Institute of Standards and Technology Tuesday released the cybersecurity framework for critical infrastructure providers.
But now the real work begins. NIST must move from its role of bringing more than 3,000 industry, academics and government experts together to one of persuader with a goal of making sure companies understand the benefits of implementing the framework.
Part of how NIST, and the government at large, will do that is through incentives.
In August, the White House offered some details on the recommendations provided by the departments of Homeland Security, Commerce and Treasury as to the areas where incentives could help adoption of the framework.
A White House official said Tuesday some of the eight potential areas of incentives determined by the three agencies — insurance, grants, process preference, liability limitation, streamlined regulations, public recognition, rate recovery and cybersecurity research — are immediately applicable and would be implemented now.
Others can only be implemented once the cybersecurity framework is completed, so the administration will evaluate them in full once the framework is complete, the official said in an email.
"Agencies are already beginning to work with the insurance industry to develop groundwork so that the framework can be utilized properly within the current marketplace and developing the means to use framework adoption as a criteria for cybersecurity grants," the official said. "Discussing these agency reports publicly is an interim step and does not indicate the administration's final policy position on the recommended actions. We will be making more information on these efforts available as the framework and program are completed."
Multi-step process
Additionally, agencies will review the framework over the next three months. Those that already regulate industry sectors, such as electricity or banking, will determine if they have enough regulatory authority.
The White House official said sector-specific and other relevant agencies, most of which are non-regulatory, are actively working with the Homeland Security Department to provide information necessary to carry out the responsibilities under the Executive Order.
NIST's release of the final draft version of the framework is step one of a multi- step process. It will accept comments over the next few months and then release a final Version 1.0 in February.
Patrick Gallagher, the director of NIST, said the agency will host the fifth workshop Nov. 14 to 15 in Raleigh, N.C.
"There we will be seeking one more round of input on the framework, and we will be discussing options for an industry led governance structure of the framework going forward," he said during a call with reporters Tuesday. "We continue to work on the framework after [it's released in February]."
Gallagher said he expects the privacy and civil liberties section of the framework to draw a lot of comments in November and possibly change the most when NIST releases version 1.0 in February.
Gallagher said the framework changed little since the August version. He joked that the final draft version is one of the worst kept secrets in Washington.
The framework provides a common language for organizations to:
- Describe their current cybersecurity posture;
- Describe their target state for cybersecurity;
- Identify and prioritize opportunities for improvement within the context of risk management;
- Assess progress toward the target state;
- Foster communications among internal and external stakeholders.
The document is centered around five core functions — identify, protect, detect, respond and recover — which can provide a high-level, strategic view of an organization's management of cybersecurity risk.
Under each of these core areas, NIST identified underlying key categories and subcategories and matched them with examples, such as existing standards, guidelines and practices for each subcategory.
"The framework, developed in collaboration with industry, provides guidance to an organization on managing cybersecurity risk," the document stated. "A key objective of the framework is to encourage organizations to consider cybersecurity risk as a priority similar to financial, safety, and operational risk while factoring in larger systemic risks inherent to critical infrastructure."
Not a silver bullet
Gallagher said the framework will mean different things to different sized organizations.
"The underlying structure of what's needed is the same. The principles are the same. [All sizes of organizations] need to be able to identify, protect, detect, respond and recover to and from cyber threats," he said. "The framework provides a way for these organizations to match up their current efforts with best practices in these various functional areas and to gauge the maturity of their own cybersecurity systems."
Gallagher added the framework also gives them a way to set goals through a roadmap toward better security and lower their risks.

Isaac Hickey is a man lost to time.
In the late 1800s, he was a Baptist preacher in the Lower Santa Ana Valley, which is composed of parts of Westminster, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach and all of Fountain Valley. But his existence is now condensed to a few passing references in history books and essays – all several decades old, at least.
Walter B. Tedford, one of Santa Ana's first settlers, wrote an essay for the 1931 tome "Orange County History Series, Volume 1," in which he says, "The Rev. Hickey would frequently hold meetings at his or some neighbor's house where the people would gather for service."
"A Hundred Years of Yesterdays: A Centennial History of the People of Orange County and Their Communities," first published in 1988, identifies Hickey as one of a number of "squatters" on the Rancho Las Bolsas. The second edition of the book, released in 2004, adds some depth, calling him a "preacher well-known for his fiery sermons."
That, it seems, is the historical memory of the Rev. Isaac Hickey.
Yet, whoever Hickey was – and however popular he was as a preacher – he represents one of a number of now-nameless revivalist preachers who once scattered across the Lower Santa Ana Valley, raising massive tents, shouting hallelujahs and preaching the word of God. And those preachers, in turn, now represent the historical legacy of religion in this once-thriving farming community. The area was once so defined by its residents' connection to religion that it became known as Gospel Swamp.
And even though the fire-and-brimstone evangelicals and the lush farmland have all but disappeared, Gospel Swamp is one of those rare historical quirks that, historians and church leaders say, remain relevant today. That is because with more than 25 houses of worship (including a Jewish temple and a mosque) in its 9 square miles, Fountain Valley, the last part of the Lower Santa Ana Valley to develop, in many ways is still a deeply religious community.
"Fountain Valley was founded as a farming town," said the Rev. John McFarland of United Methodist Church on Bushard Street. "Farmers are traditionally very religious. When crops are your livelihood, you tend to pray a lot."
Across the street from McFarland's church is a structure of living history: All Saints Anglican Church. In 1898, Tom Talbert purchased a portion of land from the Rancho Las Bolsas to build a church. In 1903, according to Dann Gibb, a member of the Fountain Valley Historical Society, it was deeded to the Methodist Church South.
The church became part of the town's city center, along with a general store, blacksmith shop and bar.
The Methodist church thrived for a while, Gibb said, but as the town grew and the automobile became the primary mode of transportation, residents began going to the more established Greenville Church northeast of town.
"The church fell on hard times and closed," Gibb said. "But it was still used by the itinerant preachers who would hold revival meetings there."
By the time the church received a new official congregation, the Episcopal Church in 1974, Fountain Valley was brimming with churches of all denominations. In the 1920s, a church also opened in the Mexican neighborhood Colonia Juarez on what is now Warner Avenue, as did the Wintersburg Presbyterian Church, located in what is now part of Huntington Beach. The 1930s even saw the creation of a Buddhist temple.
"This was a strong farming community as opposed to a business-oriented city," said John Creel, a sub-deacon of All Saints Anglican Church. "Farming families tend to be very tight-knit. They read the Bible at dinner."
Even after the town incorporated in 1957 and the vast farmland gave way to residential neighborhoods, the community's adherence to religion remained.

Everyone experiences ups and downs in their lives, but no one deserves to suffer from extended periods of sadness and depression.
Trauma results from an individual experiencing or witnessing a physically or emotionally harmful event or series of events.
When a woman has depression, it interferes with her daily life and routine, such as going to work or school, taking care of children, and relationships with family and friends.
According to the Children's Defense Fund, one in 10 children in this country has a mental illness serious enough to impair how they function at home, at school or with peers.

Overview of content related to 'university of cambridge'
This page provides an overview of 1 article related to 'university of cambridge'. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
The University of Cambridge is a public research university in Cambridge, England. It is the second-oldest university in both England and the English-speaking world, and the seventh-oldest globally. In post-nominals the university's name is abbreviated as Cantab, a shortened form of Cantabrigiensis (an adjective derived from Cantabrigia, the Latinised form of Cambridge). The university grew out of an association of scholars in the city of Cambridge that was formed in 1209, early records suggest, by scholars leaving Oxford after a dispute with townsfolk. The two "ancient universities" have many common features and are often jointly referred to as Oxbridge. In addition to cultural and practical associations as a historic part of British society, they have a long history of rivalry with each other. Academically Cambridge ranks as one of the top universities in the world: first in the world in both the 2010 and 2011QS World University Rankings, sixth in the world in the 2010-2011 Times Higher Education World University Rankings, and fifth in the world (and first in Europe) in the 2010 Academic Ranking of World Universities. Cambridge regularly contends with Oxford for first place in UK league tables. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: University of Cambridge)

NORFOLK (AP) -- World Wrestling Entertainment's annual holiday salute to the U.S. Armed Forces will be shot Sunday in Norfolk.
The WWE Tribute to the Troops on Dec. 9 will include musical performances by Kid Rock and Flo Rida, as well as appearances by Disney's The Muppets.
Today, WWE entertainers were at Naval Station Norfolk, Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story and Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia Beach, and the Naval Medical Center in Portsmouth to entertain the nearly 200,000 sailors, family members, and civilians that make up the world's largest naval station and Navy fleet concentration area.
WWE Superstars Big Show, Hornswoggle, Brodus Clay, Ted DiBiase, Naomi and Cameron also delivered anti-bullying messages to 200 students at Sewells Point Elementary. WWE and The Creative Coalition launched an anti-bullying alliance, Be a STAR (Show Tolerance And Respect), to provide students with positive tools to prevent bullying in their schools and communities. The mission of Be a STAR is to ensure a positive and equitable social environment for everyone regardless of age, race, religion or sexual orientation through education and awareness.
Sunday's event is for the military only and tickets were being distributed via Mid-Atlantic MWR.
The 10th annual special will be broadcast on Dec. 19 on USA Network and Dec. 22 on NBC.

While checking some code on the web and scripts generated by SQL Server Management Studio I have noticed that some statements are ended with a semicolon.
So when should I use it?
While checking some code on the web and scripts generated by SQL Server Management Studio I have noticed that some statements are ended with a semicolon.
So when should I use it?
From a SQLServerCentral.Com article by Ken Powers:
The Semicolon
The semicolon character is a statement terminator. It is a part of the ANSI SQL-92 standard, but was never used within Transact-SQL. Indeed, it was possible to code T-SQL for years without ever encountering a semicolon.
There are two situations in which you must use the semicolon. The first situation is where you use a Common Table Expression (CTE), and the CTE is not the first statement in the batch. The second is where you issue a Service Broker statement and the Service Broker statement is not the first statement in the batch.
By default, SQL statements are terminated with semicolons. You use a semicolon to terminate statements unless you've (rarely) set a new statement terminator.
If you're sending just one statement, technically you can dispense with the statement terminator; in a script, as you're sending more than one statement, you need it.
In practice, always include the terminator even if you're just sending one statement to the database.
Edit: in response to those saying statement terminators are not required by [particular RDBMS], while that may be true, they're required by the ANSI SQL Standard. In all programming, if we can adhere to a Standard without loss of functionality, we should, because then neither our code or our habits are tied to one proprietary vendor.
With some C compilers, it's possible to have main return void, even though the Standard requires main to return int. But doing so makes our code, and ourselves, less portable.
The biggest difficulty in programming effectively isn't learning new things, it's unlearning bad habits. To the extent that we can avoid acquiring bad habits in the first place, it's a win for us, for our code, and for anyone reading or using our code.
In SQL2008 BOL they say that in next releases semicolons will be required. Therefore, always use it.
If I read this correctly, it will be a requirement to use semicolons to end TSQL statements. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143729%28v=sql.120%29.aspx
EDIT: I found a plug-in for SSMS 2008R2 that will format your script and add the semicolons. I think it is still in beta though...
EDIT: I found an even better free tool/plugin called ApexSQL... http://www.apexsql.com/
Personal opinion: Use them only where they are required. (See TheTXI's answer above for the required list.)
Since the compiler doesn't require them, you can put them all over, but why? The compiler won't tell you where you forgot one, so you'll end up with inconsistent use.
[This opinion is specific to SQL Server. Other databases may have more-stringent requirements. If you're writing SQL to run on multiple databases, your requirements may vary.]
tpdi stated above, "in a script, as you're sending more than one statement, you need it." That's actually not correct. You don't need them.
It appears that semicolons should not be used in conjunction with cursor operations: OPEN, FETCH, CLOSE and DEALLOCATE. I just wasted a couple of hours with this. I had a close look at the BOL and noticed that [;] is not shown in the syntax for these cursor statements!!
So I had: OPEN mycursor; and this gave me error 16916.
But: OPEN mycursor worked.
You must use it.
And most important:
Source: Miscrosoft SQL Server 2012 T-SQL Fundamentals by Itzik Ben-Gan.
An exmaple of why you always must use
I was unable to reply to @rab for some reason so I'll have to post an answer:
I don't know which version of SQL Server rab was using but semicolons work fine with cursors in SQL Server 2005 and 2008.
Try the following, to see what I mean:
When using either a DISABLE or ENABLE TRIGGER statement in a batch that has other statements in it, the statement just before it must end with a semicolon. Otherwise, you'll get a syntax error. I tore my hair out with this one... And afterwards, I stumbled on this MS Connect item about the same thing. It is closed as won't fix.
see here
Semicolons do not always work in compound SELECT statements.
Compare these two different versions of a trivial compound SELECT statement.

Nursing Students
Just starting and need a little extra help?
Library "To Do" List for Nursing Students.
- Check your Zagmail account. You may be surprised at the number of messages already in there! Your Gonzaga e-mail address is usually your first initial+last name followed by @gonzaga.edu.
- View your library record. Go to the Foley homepage/click on Catalog/click on My Account and login with your GU ID number and last name.
- Create an ILLiad account. You'll need this to request books that are not in Foley Library and to request articles you can't get in full-text online through one of Foley Library's subscription databases. Distant students (35 + miles from campus) may use ILLiad to request ANY articles you can't get in full-text online.
- Login to the CINAHL or MEDLINE database from off-campus as soon as possible! If you have problems with your username and password, contact the computer help desk: firstname.lastname@example.com or 509-323-5550.
Printable Tip Sheet for GU Nursing Students - Coming soon! (11/08)
Using PubMed
Some of you may be familiar with using Loansome Doc to order articles, but we are recommending using My NCBI and it's Get It at Gonzaga link.
- Once you register for a My NCBI account, you can also save your searches for use the next time you login.
- The Get It at Gonzaga link takes you directly to our Periodicals @ Foley page and the record (if there is one) for the journal you are looking for.
Directions on how to set up an account for My NCBI in PubMed.
PubMed Tutorials from the National Library of Medicine: Tutorials
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PUBMED AND MEDLINE? - Mostly the search interface, really. Both search the same article database from the National Library of Medicine. However, if you are familiar with using our CINAHL database, you might find it easier to use our MEDLINE database rather than PubMed. PubMed does have the newest articles - the ones that haven't been assigned subject headings yet. Once they are indexed, they are included in MEDLINE.

Amouage EPIC Man 100ml can't remember but around £180 I guess
Thread: Your most expensive blind buy
What is your most expensive blind buy? How much did you pay and why did you choose to buy it blind?
Amouage EPIC Man 100ml can't remember but around £180 I guess
Millesime Imperial directly from the Creed Boutique (back in my earlier days). I think it cost $285.
Invasion Barbare (best blind buy I've ever made). It was $260.
I lied! (Unintentionally)
Somebody resurrected an IB thread I started back in 2011 and apparently I sampled Invasion Barbare for a MONTH before I bought it. For some reason I thought I bought it blind. I did not.
Just wanted to clear that up.
Here *hands back cool points*
*hangs head in shame*
*tiptoes away from post*
And more recently, Norne and Pear + Olive by Slumber house (also good blinds). $115 each.
I'm more reserved these days. When it comes to expensive bottles, I'm more likely to sample. But anything under $75, I'll go blind after reading a couple of well written reviews.
Last edited by Buysblind; 10th February 2013 at 06:02 PM. Reason: I messed up!
LDDM was my most expensive blind buy at $106. I couldn't be happier with it. Bought based on hype and all the positive reviews.
1. Dior Homme Intense
2. Creed Aventus
3. Tom Ford Extreme
4. Gucci Pour Homme II
5. Terre d'Hermes
Pure Havane and Pure Malt, both at around $96, couldn't be more pleased.
nothing too high for me so far. DHI was mine at around $80. best blind buy for me so far. i dont mind blind buying now, awhile back it was just like taking shots in the dark, now i have (sort of lol) a guess at what i may or may not like based on notes and various reviews.
Aventus $175.00. Worth every cent!
I have never BB anything over $60. I'm not much of a gambler.
Clive Christian No. 1 Pure Parfum over $1000 (can't remember the exact amount)
Amouage Dia Man. 240 ish usd - easily worth it. Love it!
Bond No. 9 - Harrods Oud
$340 directly from Bond No. 9
Don't remember why I bought it blind - but I regret that one. Not my cup of tea. Oh well.
A couple dudes hyped it up ridiculously. Maybe that's why?
- - - Updated - - -
And dumb for buying directly from the Creed Boutique. I could have gotten the same thing for less than half the price at several other places online.
Well, at least it's a good batch. But those Creed atomizers drain your juice fast. I've had to stop using it for a while because it was disappearing so quickly.
homage ...was 225 GBP.....and am ready to repeat it i think one cant go wrong much with these
By Kilian 'A Taste of Heaven' €175, and very pleased with it.
L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme by Guerlain - price was between $40-$45 via amazon.com
i bought a*men pure malt for $190 from UK... which i regret... then i saw they are selling at thierry mugler online store for $89....
i like pure malt but i wouldn't spent that much money on that.... anyway shit happens...
now im thinking of buying dior homme intense & l,instinct de guerlain extreme..... i dont know if i should......
want something for going out....
With samples being at my finger tips and being so inexpensive I've quit blind buying. The most expensive was a Cartier for 80 dollars that only lasted 30 minutes on me. That cured me of the blind buy.
Can gladly say that I'm not sure, usually sample anything expensive before buying.
Pure Malt for me too. It was a nice fragrance, but not for me, so I sold it not long after.
L'artisan Parfumeur Tea for Two. I chose to blind-buy it because as you know it's been discontinued and the local stores are all sold out. I paid $145 before taxes and shipping. It's in transit now! I hope I like it!
Royal Oud - $300
pure shot at 125 the second week it came out. i also had a decant which i did not sample before buying the 3.4 oz bottle. but i sold it for 75 bucks so i got sum money bacl. lol
Gucci Envy
CREED Aventus
Frederic Malle Musc Ravageur
DIOR Homme Intense
Guerlain L'IDGExtreme
Chanel Platinum Egoiste
Chanel Allure Edition Blanche
Jean-Paul Gaultier Le Male
Thierry Mugler Pure Malt
Creed Bois De Portugal from Creed. Not a great move that one.........
6 differnet amouage attars, Xerjoff Fiero Regio Zafar, Vetiver Pour Elle...
But I'm pretty good at knowing what I'll like.
Guerlain Derby, because of all the love it gets from fellow BNers. Not a single regret either :-)
Probably LIDGE and DHI. I think I tried everything else first that's over $100.
That may have been a factor - Actually if you like that kind of Oud, it would be great - just a little to "much" for me.
An unopened vintage bottle of Givenchy III for $166 and Acqua Di Parma Iris Nobile for $164 - both gorgeous and worth the risk.
I admire all those sensible souls that sample, sample, sample, but really I would never buy a full bottle of anything if I sampled, because then it's a known quantity. I even drag my heels over repurchasing stuff that I know I love. It's like buying dishwashing liquid. Obviously I've got a bad case of novelty-itis, which sits right up against a bad case of full-bottle-itis.
Conversely if I did overcome my need for risk and novely, and wanted to purchase a full bottle of my sample, I'm then paranoid about the samples being the same as the full bottle, since I now have an inbuilt expectation of what it should smell like.
And on it goes - that's just the tip of the iceberg as to how and why 'conflicted' persons such as myself buy what we buy.

Hmm... I bought several fragrances at once, all blind. Total around $170.
L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme
Azzaro Pour Homme
Paco Rabanne Pour Homme
Rive Gauche Pour Homme
Love all of them.
YSL M7 at about ~105 USD
Honestly, I can see the hype and the depth of the fragrance but the opening is excruciating. Also, as a 23y/o, the fragrance as a whole is very, very situational. I can see myself wearing this as I age but since I'm asian it'll probably be associated with the medicinal-asian stereotype... I definitely should have sampled. I regret this buy but take solace in the fact that its price has inflated to about ~170USD now.
For me, it was 2 bottles of Creed. Bois du Portugal and Royal Oud.
Love them both. $180 each.
Amouage - Jubilation XXV... £140 for 50ml - after much hmmm-ing and ahhhh-ing, and research and reading many reviews, I decided the 1st Amouage I (blind) buy would be this - and so glad I did!!
Also, blind bought TF - Neroli Portofino & Tobacco Vanille together, so I suppose that's the most expensive at £250 for 100ml (£125 each for 50ml). That was a real nervous trigger finger...!!! Again, so glad I did.
Living far from any decent places to try and test fragrance, I find I usually have to buy blind... Nearly all of my buys have been blind - and so far, only one or two have been duds (cheap ones thankfully!!).
LOST! in scent and music
Creed Windsor I. $405 for a leather atomizer. At first I was disappointed - seemed way heavy on a "Ben-Gay" vibe - but my appreciation of it has grown considerably since then. Glad I took a chance on it.
Another pricey blind buy: Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille. Very, very happy with this one.
Good investment blind buy: a flacon of Creed Cuir de Russie. The fragrance has its charms, too.
Probably Green Irish Tweed. Think it cost me about $140.
Current top 10 (No order):
1. Pure Havane
2. Menthe Fraiche
3. Tobacco Vanille
4. L'Air Du Desert Marocain
5. Green Irish Tweed
6. Fahrenheit
7. Musc Ravageur
8. Tonka Imperial
9. Gucci Pour Homme II
10. Dior Homme Intense
I have 3 that cost a bit baught blind. Vintage M7, Harrod's Oud and LIDGE. Also MKK and Cedré. Can't think of any others but there must me at least one more. I usually sample first unless I come upon a great deal on a highly rdspected scent.
Some Favorites
1. Amouage Epic man
2. Dior Leather Oud
3. Perris Monte Carlo Oud Imperial Black
4. Le Labo Patchouli 24
5. Amouage Opus VII
6. Byredo Bullion
