Courses in Cybercrime Studies: Detailed Course Descriptions
Cybercrime courses help students learn how to prevent computer hacking and understand trends in cybercrime. Courses in cybercrime studies are generally completed through an entire certificate or degree program.
Essential Information
Cybercrime courses are often part of undergraduate and graduate certificate and degree programs, like forensic science, information technology, cybercrime technology or homeland security. Degree programs are offered at the associate's, bachelor's and master's degree levels. While students in a cybercrime certificate program might only complete courses in the subject, those enrolled in degree programs might take additional coursework in criminal justice, computer science, emergency management, government and terrorism.
Common courses in cybercrime studies include those in digital crime and computer law, computer forensics and investigation, cybercrime tends and information systems security. Students explore case studies to gain some experience. Graduates are prepared for computer security careers in the military, government and private companies. Some possible job titles include computer forensics analyst, information security analyst, risk manager and digital security consultant.
List of Courses
Some introductory through advanced courses found in a program related to cybercrime are described below.
Digital Crime and Computer Law Course
This course introduces students to the many different types of cybercrime. Students learn how to identify cybercriminal activity and learn how companies and law enforcement agencies are responding to the dangers these crimes present. Possible scenarios for solving the crimes are introduced, and students examine legal responses for these issues. Classes like these teach students the federal and state laws regarding computer violations and the proper manner for prosecuting crimes of this nature in court.
Computer Forensics and Investigation Course
Throughout this course, students become familiar with the basics of solving cybercrimes. By learning how to identify, protect and gather evidence, retrieve data, prepare crime reports and present information in courts, students master the correct methods for investigating cybercrimes so they can be solved and prosecuted. Students read case studies to become familiar with cybercrime scene investigation techniques. Techniques and tools used to build and solve cybercrime cases are presented and analyzed.
Information Systems Security and Cybercrime Course
In this class, students analyze methods criminals use on the Internet to commit crimes. The course covers various methods of computer security, their complexity and adequacy. Students work on methods for creating backup information systems and developing means for recovering data in case it is destroyed or stolen. Potential threats to Internet systems and how they could affect the way individuals and companies use and rely on the systems are introduced in these intermediate cybercrime studies classes.
Trends in Cybercrime Course
This advanced cybercrime studies class identifies current cybercrimes. In some courses, students hack into computer systems to fully understand the way hackers think and the type of protection businesses and individuals need to protect their computer information. Legal issues surrounding these crimes, how credit card fraud and other cybercrimes work and possible protective measures are all investigated in this course.

Low Back Care Complete
100 - 500 downloadsAdd this app to your listsTweets por @Appszoom
The fundamentals to a successful back care program are stretching, strengthening and weight loss. This is the continuation in a series of Low Back stretches and strengthening exercises. By focusing for just a few minutes each day on your low back, you can see dramatic improvements in your posture, your flexibility and the strength of your lower back. This program focuses not only on your low back, but also all of the muscles and areas that CONNECT to your low back. As a result, you have the most complete protection for your low back area. DIRECTIONS: CONSULT WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE USING THIS OR ANY EXERCISE APP. Never push through any pain. Stretching and strengthening are only about a mild ache in your muscles…not pain. Let your body be your guide. LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.
Make sure your phone volume is set to the Maximum to be able to hear the instructions. If the sound is still not loud enough, consider using earbuds or headphones. Also make sure that any SCREEN BLANKING screen saver is turned off or to a time frame longer than this app so that your screen does not go blank in the middle of your exercise.
Initially perform exercises in front of a mirror to confirm correct form and technique. If you are having trouble performing this App, watch it a few times to see and hear the correct form.
The Low Back Care Complete program includes the following:
1. Warm Up (5 min)
This part of the program is a video. You can press on the HQ button to view the video in High Quality. This sets the next video in High Quality also. The pause button, rewind and fast forward buttons are all available by touching the screen. The volume is adjusted by using the volume adjustment button your phone.
2. Stretching (5 min)
This is a static image with 3 choices showing three levels of difficulty. For each stretch, choose the one that provides a dull ache without any pain. On some you may decide on the Basic level while on other stretches, you may choose a more advanced level.(The pictures do not move or change…the app is not a touch screen during the stretches.)
3. Strengthening (6 min)
This part of the program is also a video. You can press on the HQ button to view the video in High Quality. The pause button, rewind and fast forward buttons are all available by touching the screen. The volume is adjusted by using the volume adjustment button your phone.
The total time to run the Low Back Care Complete App is 16 minutes.
1. Don't bounce!
You will get the best stretch, and prevent injuries if you avoid bouncing. Instead, hold the stretch, and feel a constant pull in the muscles.
2.Focus on those low back muscles.
While a good overall routine is helpful, your emphasis should be on the low back muscles since they will be most heavily involved in your workout.
3. Warm up before stretching.
Just some easy walking or a light jog will be sufficient to warm up your muscles, but it will make the stretching session much more valuable.
4. Begin slowly.
You don't need to touch your toes right away: Begin slowly and push yourself as your muscles loosen up. Stretching too much, too soon can be painful and potentially harmful.
5. Hold the stretch.
Once you feel your muscles reaching their limit, hold the position for a count of 5 and BREATHE. Then push yourself a little further and hold again for a count of 5 and BREATHE.
6. Don't rush your stretching routine. If you're going to have to cut your workout short, don't skip or shorten the stretching. This is more important than an extra set of reps or another half mile.
7. Losing weight will significantly help your low back. If you are overweight, then losing weight will give you large gains in your efforts to improve your low back.
8.Do it again.
Once you're finished working out, stretch again. Not only is it an excellent way to cool down from your workout, but this is the time that you will improve your flexibility the most.

Do not use this app if you have any of the following: chronic low back pain, back pain, sciatica, lumbago, piriformis syndrome, ischiadic passion disease, back pain, low back pain, slipped disc, herniated disc, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, sciatic nerve, back injury, TENS, nerve root irritation, nerve impingement, ruptured disc, spinal degeneration, cauda equina syndrome, musculoskeletal pain syndromes, myofascial pain syndromes, fibromyalgia, osteomyelitis, sacroiliitis.
(69 stars)
I use all three apps. This one is the most difficult but they are all good for focusing my time and effort on exactly what I want--my low back. The combination of images and videos on YouTube works really well to convey the exercises.Great Job!
(69 stars)
It takes you to YouTube for the workout so you must have a internet connection. No response from developer.

Scientists look to mussels for super-strong polymers
By Ben Coxworth
March 4, 2010
If you've ever gone down to the seashore and tried to pull mussels off rocks (and hey, who hasn't?), then you'll know how tenacious their holdfasts can be - although they can be tugged back and forth, it's almost impossible to actually remove them. Recently, scientists at Germany's Max Planck Institute for Colloids and Interfaces analyzed how the delicious mollusks are able to to achieve such a feat of natural engineering. What they discovered could find its way into human technology.
Mussels attach themselves to rocks with a fibrous appendage called the byssus. The individual byssal threads are stiff but stretchy, in order to dissipate the energy of crashing waves. They are produced by the mussel through a process not unlike injection molding. Because they are constantly being blasted with water-borne debris, they have a protective outer cuticle. This cuticle is described as "a biological polymer", and while it exhibits epoxy-like hardness, it can also stretch up to 100% without cracking.
When viewed under a scanning electron microscope, the byssal cuticles have a knobby appearance. This is because they contain numerous submicron-sized granular inclusions, which are distributed in a continuous matrix. It is believed that when the cuticle is stretched, submicron-sized tears occur in this matrix, hindering the formation of larger cracks.
The cuticles were found to have a high concentration of iron ions, and a modified type of the amino acid commonly called dopa. Dopa is known for its ability to bond with iron ions, creating metal-protein complexes that have a high breaking point, but that also have the ability to pull themselves back together once they have broken. The scientists discovered that the cuticles have a higher density of the dopa-iron complexes around the granular inclusions, while the spaces between the inclusions have less of the complexes - this means that the granules serve as the rigid structure of the cuticle, while the areas between them function in a sacrificial manner, allowing bonds to break before catastrophic failure.
"Nature has evolved an elegant solution to a problem that engineers are still struggling with; namely, how to combine the properties of abrasion resistance and high extensibility in the same material", says Peter Fratzl, director of the biomaterials department at Max Planck. "Conceivably, this same strategy could be applied in engineered polymers and composites."
What the hell? Has the author ever been to the beach and tugged off a muscle shell? It\'s really not that hard. In non-national park settings, it\'s kind of cool to tear off a muscle, crush it and feed the muscle to a sea anemone. Hell, when I was younger, several decades ago, my grandfather and I used to tear off muscles and use them for bait when fishing in Baja. I like the technology, but to make it sound unbreakable is just poor reporting.Facebook User
I think many of our solutions will be found in nature - if we study it close enough, like these mussels. Good articel...Facebook User
Often the connection between the stuff in nature and the stuff in our daily world seem very far apart. As a naturalist, after showing people a flower, bug, or some other organism the comment is \"That\'s nice, but what good is it?\" For many organisms the value to us isn\'t even remotely apparent. Here\'s a good example ....Paul Wiegman
Sometimes many of the solutions to our problems can be found somewhere in nature. Maybe scientists should hook up with biologists and a few new things could be derived from that.Facebook User
Yet another breakthrough from Nature. Let us live in harmony with Nature and get more and more Innovations for a bright world.

TIRUPATI: In the raging race between Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy and Telugu Desam Party president N. Chandrababu Naidu in doling out benefits to different sections, it was the turn of the latter on Monday to announce a few freebies to mark the launch of his 100-day 'Praja Chaithanya Yathra' across the State from Chandragiri constituency near here.
The TDP leader announced 9 to 10 hours free power supply to agriculture, free domestic power supply up to 50 units and loans to small farmers at 10 paise interest.
He said 15 kg of rice must be given under the Rs.2/- a kg scheme and wondered how the 4 kg now being given would be enough for a person.
"We must raise in revolt to get our legitimate share," he said, adding that people were badly let down by the Congress after having been promised the moon by the party, to come to power by hook or crook.

Emmy winner Sarah Jessica Parker is speaking out for the first time about the difficult circumstances surrounding her casting in "Lovelace." She told href="http://www.accesshollywood.com/sarah-jessica-parker-talks-daunting-lovelace-role_article_60274" target="_blank">"Access Hollywood" that replacing Demi Moore as Gloria Steinem in the Linda Lovelace biopic was a "daunting task" because she had so little time to prepare for the role of the feminist icon.
"I obviously conveyed to the filmmakers that I was aware and I was sorry for the reasons that they had to reach out to me," the "Sex and the City" star explained. "Also, of course, the somewhat daunting task of playing somebody with very little time [to prepare] who was obviously such an important person in the women's movement, but also played such a pivotal role in Linda's life."
Principal photography on the film had already begun when Parker was asked to step into the role of Steinem following Moore's hospitalization in late January. Paramedics responded to an emergency call made to 911 from the actress' home in Los Angeles on January 23 after friends reported that Moore was "semiconscious" and "having convulsions of some sort" after smoking an unidentified substance.
"Obviously, the circumstances are not ideal," Parker said.
The role of Steinem in "Lovelace" is small but pivotal. The Ms. magazine founder famously published the article "The Real Linda Lovelace" that revealed the abusive relationship the then-porn star, played in the film by Amanda Seyfried, had with husband Chuck Traynor (Peter Sarsgaard). Steinem went on to write the introduction to Lovelace's 1986 memoir.
"Lovelace" producer Heidi Jo Markel told target="_blank">People that Moore was "devastated" to lose the role. The actress earned career-best reviews for her small role in last year's Oscar-nominated "Margin Call" and was keen to sink her teeth into the dramatic part.
"It was a shock and a concern for all of us," Markel told the magazine.
"We got a call from [Moore's representative] on Tuesday morning [saying], 'There's been a personal crisis and we need to let you know that.' And we were clueless. We had no idea what it entailed. We just knew she was out, that there was probably a health concern, and to move on."
Moving on meant finding a replacement in a hurry. News of Moore's departure was announced on January 25 and photos of Parker in character on the "Lovelace" set surfaced just eight days later.
Check out everything we've got on "Lovelace."

Children's LiteratureThe author introduces us to the members of his family and their various occupations, including a baker, wood carver, potter, doctor, and lawyer. The most interesting one of all is his grandfather, whose understanding of plants helps cure illnesses in his African village in eastern Nigeria. The author cautions the reader that many plants look similar but some can be lethal and therefore they should not experiment with tasting them. The clear full-color photographs bring the countryside, the people, and the culture to life. The text is short, engaging, and informative. Together they make you want to keep turning the page and discovering more. An afterword provides more information about grandfather's plants, the importance of traditional folk medicine, and its impact on scientific studies today. This is a marvelous book for Father's Day, a study on Nigeria, looking at family life, and also the study of plants. Simple enough for reluctant readers, engaging for everyone. 2000 (orig. 1998), Frances Lincoln, Ages 8 to 12.

Previous accutane users..
Comments (2)
YES! Oh my gosh, I thought I was the only one. I have cystic acne, and with my first pregnancy (I was 21) my skin was fine. This time (I am 26) it has come back all over my body like when I was a teenager. I hate it!
I used accutane for 2 years age 14-16 because my skin was SO bad.
I took several rounds of accutane in my teens. It really helped--I had really bad Tzone acne--like hundreds of zits on my forehead, it was awful, and so embarrassing!
Anyway, after the accutane I was in a much better spot, and I would still break out on occasion, but it was much less frequent and less severe. I've noticed that during pregnancy my complexion is worse at the beginning, and then it evens out again. Right now I'm dealing with an annoying breakout all along my chin line and around my lips. It SUCKS, but I know it will pass!!!!

Marijuana Tracking Aimed At Keeping Pot In Washington
Tuesday, January 07, 2014
Sales of recreational marijuana will begin in the spring in Washington state. Efforts are underway to meet a top priority of the U.S. Justice Department: prevent marijuana "leakage" to neighboring states like Oregon and Idaho.
Barcodes will help Washington officials track marijuana from seed to sale, but technology alone won't necessarily keep Washington pot in Washington.
From the Here & Now Contributors Network, Austin Jenkins of the Northwest News Network reports that some observers think the concern about pot leakage is overblown.

Maring, Bowlin return to Wichita Falls
Duo's CD half original, half covers
While financial times are tough for everyone — especially traveling musicians — Illinois-based bluegrass, folk and country pickers Wil Maring and Robert Bowlin always enjoy coming to Wichita Falls.
"Dr. Brian Hull knows how to promote a show and how to treat musicians and how to set things up," said guitarist and fiddle player Bowlin. "He's just a wonderful host. All of those things are things that traveling musicians dream about."
The duo will perform at 6:30 p.m. July 21 at The Kemp at the Forum, 2120 Speedway. Ticket sales benefit the renovations at the Forum.
A duo since 2004, Maring is a singer and songwriter with three solo CDs to her credit, while Bowlin is an instrumentalist who has played with musicians such as Bill Monroe, Ray Price and Tom T. Hall.
The two Illinois-based musicians play separately, but they also try to play at least 60 or so shows together as a duo. They released their first duo CD in 2010 of half original material and cover tunes people enjoy hearing them play.
For their live shows, Maring said, "We mix in Robert's instrumentals, which is what he primarily writes, plus some of my songs and other traditional songs that people might have heard. It's so that people don't get a barrage of material that's new to them."
One of the popular covers they do is "You Don't Know Me," written by Cindy Walker and made popular by Ray Charles. "I heard his cover and I thought Wil could switch styles and sing that really well," Bowlin said.
Other songs include "Don't Fence Me In" and "Georgia on My Mind," along with some bluegrass tunes from performers like Bill Monroe as well as standard old fiddle tunes.
Their first duo CD features covers that people frequently request.
"People asked if we had those tunes on a CD and we didn't. That's how the duo CD came to stand," Maring said.
They do not write songs together that much, because when Bowlin comes up with a lyrical song, it's usually pretty quick, he said. And, while neither have done much co-writing, "which is an art unto itself," he said, they do collaborate for arrangements.
For their live performances, Bowlin mostly plays guitar and then picks up a fiddle for songs like "A Dance to the Saint Anne's Reel," which is an old traditional tune for which Maring wrote new lyrics.
Maring plays guitar and sings most of the material, and Bowlin provides harmony vocals. He also sings lead on several songs. When Bowlin is playing his songs, she grabs a three-quarter-scale acoustic bass and accompanies him.
The two were happy with the turnout for their first show together in Wichita Falls when they played at the Forum in August 2010.
"The sound and atmosphere were really wonderful," Maring said, "and we were told we were able to raise a lot of money for the Humane Society, and we were really happy with that."
Since their last performance here, the two have written several songs they are scheduled to record, and they've toured and appeared on public radio.
Before the duo performed in Wichita Falls, Bowlin had been through the area with Ray Price and Vince Gill. He met promoter Hull in Winfield, Kan., where the National Guitar Flat Pick Championships are held each year, and that lead to Hull asking the duo to perform here in 2010.

Jo Dee Messina
"I have used Shure products my entire touring career. Their products are high quality and dependable. Believe me, I've put them to the test over the years. Besides the product itself, the folks at Shure have always taken great care of me and my touring organization."
As Jo Dee Messina gears up to release her 6th studio album, Unmistakable, in 2008 she makes sure she has the right gear on the road and in the studio. The Massachusetts-born singer has sold five million albums, had 9 #1 singles, earned two Grammy nominations in addition to awards by the CMA and ACM, and seen her albums go platinum (Burn) and double platinum (I'm Alright). The latter made history, as three consecutive singles reached the #1 spot for multiple weeks on the Billboard singles chart, making her the first female artist ever to earn that distinction.
Consistently in the news for being at the top females of her format, Messina stays busy both touring and in the studio. Hits like "Lesson in Leavin'," "Because You Love Me," "Downtime," "Bring On The Rain," "That's The Way" and "My Give A Damn's Busted" would cement her reputation as one of country's most loved and enduring hit-makers.

facilitate the movement of scientists around the world—for instance, to participate in meetings or collaborate in multidisciplinary and international working groups.
I want to clarify that for ICLAS, harmonization of guidelines does not mean standardization. This is an important point of this program. ICLAS supports harmonization of animal care and use policies, guidelines, and other forms of regulations on a worldwide basis as a reflection of the globalization of research. It does not mean standardization. ICLAS considers that each country should be able to maintain an animal welfare oversight system that reflects its own culture, tradition, religion, laws, and regulations. One of the big challenges that will face this program is whether the various countries and regions will incorporate this kind of document into their regulations while maintaining respect for their own laws, culture, and religion.
Let me conclude this presentation by saying that the objective in which the ICLAS harmonization program would like to succeed is the international harmonization of existing guidelines for the use of animals in research, teaching, and testing. This will be essential in the globalization of research all over the world. In addition, communication and partnership among national, regional, and international organizations will ensure the global harmonization of the use of animals.
It must be understood that national guidelines will always supersede international guidelines. However, it is also important that each country recognize and implement international core principles for the care and use of laboratory animals.

What Can Obama Do in Latin America?
This article originally appeared on TomDispatch.
What if Barack Obama had picked The Nation's Katrina vanden Heuvel or Democracy Now! anchor Amy Goodman to advise him at the upcoming Summit of seventy-five years ago President Franklin Delano Roosevelt did something just like that, tapping a former Nation editor and fierce critic of US militarism to advise his administration on Latin American policy. As a result--consider this your curious, yet little known, fact of the day--anti-imperialism saved the American empire.
FDR took office in 1933 looking not just to stabilize the US economy but to calm a world inflamed: Japan had invaded Manchuria the year before; the Nazis had seized power in Germany; European imperialists were tightening their holds over their colonies; and the Soviet Union had declared its militant "third period" strategy, imagining that global capitalism, plunged into the Great Depression, was in its last throes.
When, soon after his March inauguration, Roosevelt put forward a call to the "nations of the world" to "enter into a solemn and definitive pact of non-aggression," the colonialists, militarists and fascists who ruled Europe and Asia balked. Because the new president's global reach came nowhere near his global ambitions, the London Economic Conference--convened that July by the equivalent of today's G-20--broke up rancorously over how to respond to that moment's global meltdown.
Luckily for Roosevelt, the seventh Pan-American Conference was scheduled to take place that December in Montevideo, Uruguay. Admittedly the very idea of pan-Americanism--that the American republics shared common ideals and political interests--was then moribund. Every few years, in an international forum, Latin American delegates simply submitted to Washington's directives while silently seething about the latest US military intervention--in Panama, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Venezuela, Honduras, the Dominican Republic or Haiti. (Take your pick.)
Momentum was then building among Latin American nations for a revision of international law, which effectively granted great powers the right to intervene in the affairs of smaller republics. Venezuelan diplomats, for instance, were insisting that the US affirm the principle of absolute sovereignty. Argentines put forth their own "non-aggression" treaty codifying non-intervention as the law of the hemisphere. Caribbean and Central American politicians insisted that detachments of US Marines, then bogged down in counterinsurgencies in Nicaragua, Haiti and the Dominican Republic, get out.
FDR dispatched his Secretary of State, Cordell Hull, to the summit, but instructed him not to offer anything more than a promise to build a few new roads. The demand that the United States give up the right of intervention was "unacceptable."
Yet Roosevelt, who had a way of mixing and matching unlikely advisors, also asked Ernest Gruening (recommended by Harvard law professor and soon-to-be Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter) to accompany Hull. In 1964, as a senator from Alaska, Gruening would become famous for casting one of only two votes against the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which President Lyndon Johnson would use to escalate the Vietnam War, but in the 1930s, he was already a committed anti-imperialist.
In the pages of the Nation and other left-wing journals, he had helped expose the use of torture, forced labor and political assassinations that took place under Marine occupations in the Caribbean, atrocities he likened to European brutality in India, Ireland and the Congo. After touring Haiti and the Dominican Republic, he lobbied Congress to cut off the funding of counterinsurgency operations in the region, and he excoriated the "horde of carpet-bagging concessionaires that are the camp-followers of American militaristic imperialism." That such an uncompromising critic of US diplomacy would be chosen to advise the Secretary of State reflects the strength of the left in the 1930s--and Roosevelt's willingness to tap it.
Burnin' and Murdewin'
As the delegation set sail for Montevideo, Gruening was shocked to learn that the US had "no program except to be friendly with everyone and radiate goodwill."
"Mr. Secretary," he reported himself telling Hull, "the one issue that concerns every Latin-American country is intervention. We should come out strongly for a resolution abjuring it."
Hull, whom Gruening later described as speaking in the thick accent of a born and bred member of the Tennessee gentry, dropping g's and wrestling with r's, replied that that would be a hard sell.
"What am Ah goin't to do when chaos breaks out in one of those countries and armed bands go woamin' awound, burnin', pillagin' and murdewin' Amewicans?" Hull asked. "How can I tell mah people that we cain't intervene?"
"Mr. Secretary," Gruening responded"that usually happens after we have intervened."
Hull was, however, afraid of bad press. "If Ah were to come out against intervention," he said, "the Hearst papers would attack me fwom coast to coast.... Wemember, Gwuening, Mr. Woosevelt and Ah have to be weelected."
"Coming out against intervention would help you get reelected," Gruening replied. It would, he insisted, help the New Deal jump off the merry-go-round of invasion, occupation and insurgency that had badly crippled US prestige throughout Latin America and much of the world.
He was right. In Montevideo, Gruening helped bridge the gap between US envoys and "anti-American" Latin American diplomats, including those from Cuba where, well before Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution, serial US interventions had strained relations between Havana and Washington. Most importantly, he reconciled the Secretary of State to the principle of non-intervention.
Hull "rose to the occasion magnificently," Gruening wrote, announcing that the United States would henceforth "shun and reject" the "so-called right-of-conquest.... The New Deal indeed would be an empty boast if it did not mean that." Latin American delegates broke out in "thunderous applause and cheers." And FDR, ever the agile politician, seized the moment, confirming that the "definite policy of the United States from now on is one opposed to armed intervention."
"Our Era of 'Imperialism' Nears its End," the New York Times announced. " 'Manifest Destiny' Is Giving Way to the New Policy of 'Equal Dealing With All Nations.' "

UFO believer tries to spread the word
He hasn't seen Orrell's photo but he gets pictures like it all the time. He said he hasn't seen one yet that's convincing proof of alien spacecraft.
"I'm open to it, but the evidence just isn't there," he said. "If UFOs are real, why can't you go into Balboa Park, into the Reuben Fleet museum, and see evidence of alien invasions?"
Actually Orrell's photo was in an exhibit recently, at the Air & Space Museum in Balboa Park. "The Science of Aliens," a traveling exhibit that originated in London, included props from science fiction movies and examples of real creatures that look otherworldly. The Inaja photo was added to give the exhibit some local flavor.
Like most "ufologists," Orrell acknowledges that the vast majority of the thousands of UFO sightings every year can be explained. They're really satellites, aircraft, weather balloons, reflections of light and so on.
But he's never doubted the validity of his own case. Convinced that the photo shows alien ships, and that the aliens are emissaries from a higher being who wants to help us, he's spent the past two decades trying to get people to listen to him.
In between various jobs over the years — artist, custodian, security guard, drywaller — he's gone to UFO conferences and met with a Russian test pilot and, just last year, put together a 12-minute YouTube video, "UFOs in San Diego." It's one of some 900,000 UFO entries on the popular site.
He's explored connections between the objects in his photo and relics from ancient cultures and believes there are higher levels of civilization out there. He thinks something cataclysmic will happen to our planet next year. And that UFOs will transport the worthy to safety.
"I've been given a great gift that I have been trying to share," he said. "I believe I was chosen to spread the UFO gospel and to my dying day that's what I'm going to do."
He's knows there are people who think he's nuts. For the record, he said he's never been treated for mental illness, never even been in therapy. "Metaphysics is my therapy," he said.
Spielvogel, his girlfriend, said Orrell has "a big heart" and is passionate about trying to help mankind. A lab assistant in a cancer-research facility, she thinks the stuff about the world ending next year "is pretty far out there," but she also doesn't think we're alone.
"I believe the universe is so big there's got to be other things besides us," she said.
Shostak, the astronomer, wouldn't dispute that. It's why the institute he works for exists. But that doesn't mean the "other things" are zipping around Julian in space ships.
"Why so many people need to believe (in UFOs) is a good question," he said. "Maybe part of it is because we all like powerful authority figures, someone who can interfere in our life and maybe improve it."
And don't underestimate the influence of the entertainment media, he said. "They've made aliens as common as fire hydrants. People see it often enough and they think maybe there's some truth to it."
Keith Taylor, former president of the San Diego Association of Rational Inquiry, a skeptics group, has a simpler explanation for the staying power of UFOs.
"It's the manifestation of deliberate ignorance," he said. "Our culture has developed to the point where we choose to believe what we want to believe."
And see what we want to see.

As Radio Frequency Engineers transition into upper-level roles such as Design Engineering Manager, they may see a strong upturn in salary. Design Engineering Managers earn $102K on average per year. It is not unusual for a Radio Frequency Engineer to become a Senior Electrical Engineer or a Radio Frequency Optimization Engineer.
Ericsson Inc., Northrop Grumman Corporation, Verizon Wireless, AT&T Mobility LLC, and Lockheed Martin Corp are all popular places to work. The biggest paychecks can be found at Verizon Wireless — the median salary there is $93K; however, employees are subject to a wide range in pay, with the lowest salaries sitting near $60K and highest ones in the neighborhood of $107K. Other leaders in compensation levels are T-Mobile, Inc. at $90K, Alcatel - Lucent at $86K, and AT&T Mobility LLC, where Radio Frequency Engineers annually earn $84K.
Also sliding in at the lower end of the scale are Sprint Nextel Corporation, AT&T Inc., and Lockheed Martin Corp. Their employees earn $76K on average.
Survey participants wield an impressively varied skill set on the job. Most notably, skills in Engineering Design, Satellite, Microwave Technology, Simulation, and Visual Basic are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts of 5 percent, 4 percent, 3 percent, and 3 percent, respectively. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Microsoft Word, Microsoft Office, and Wireless Data Communications. Those educated in Microsoft Excel tend to be well versed in Engineering Design.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Radio Frequency Engineers, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. Relatively untried employees who have less than five years' experience make $70K, but folks with five to 10 years under their belts enjoy an appreciably larger median of $84K. After working for 10 to 20 years, Radio Frequency Engineers make a median salary of $98K. People who have worked for more than 20 years report a median income of $103K, which is barely higher than the median for folks with 10 to 20 years of experience.
For Radio Frequency Engineers, San Jose, Sunnyvale, and San Diego, three California cities, are home to the highest salaries in the United States, all offering a rate above the national average. Trailing the national average by 15 percent, Atlanta is the market with the smallest paychecks. Employers in Dallas and Denver also lean toward paying below-median salaries (7 percent less).

We've landed in Belfast
|09.30.10 at 8:33 am ET
BELFAST — …And I could totally bust out a "5,000 Things We've Learned" right now but Bruins' practice and drowsiness from barely sleeping in the last however many hours would get in the way. Instead here are some pictures from the first night/morning of the trip, many of which were taken on a camera phone, so all apologies.
Shawn Thornton and Patrice Bergeron: Irish brothers?
|09.30.10 at 7:35 am ET
BELFAST — The European trip to kick off the Bruins' 2010-11 season can be viewed as being about a lot of things. From seeing new places to seeing unfamiliar teams in preseason and getting a good deal of team bonding in, there are plenty of story lines that run congruent with the team's 10-day trip. Just days away from the Bruins' exhibition game with the Belfast Giants in Northern Ireland, one player comes to mind for embracing his family ties and soaking up the tradition. That player, of course, is Shawn Thornton, but should there be more?
Thornton's mother, born in Belfast, flew in on Wednesday to stay with her cousin while her son is in town. Given all the excitement throughout his relatives, the veteran forward is expecting 20 family members to both show him around and attend Saturday's game. Reallocation of the players' tickets certainly came into play as a result.
"There's a lot of guys who did not need tickets for this game. Thank God," Thornton said with a smile. "I've got the most."
Yet while Thornton is eager to see family members, some of whom he's never met, there's another Irish relative he's excited for, and one Bruins fans might be a little more familiar with: Quebec's own Patrice Bergeron.
"My grandfather was born in Northern Ireland. He came over a long time ago with his parents. It's been a long time, but it's going to be pretty special to go there," Bergeron said of the surprising bloodlines.
Born and raised in Quebec and a star of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League as a teenager, there isn't much about Bergeron's upbringing or time in the game that screams "Northern Ireland." Though Bergeron isn't sure if he actually still has any relatives in the area, Thornton can assure him that he has at least one.
"I mean, we're Irish brothers," Thornton said. "I call him Patrick Cleary, not Patrice Bergeron, so we're probably related back from back there at some point."
And thus perhaps the most unlikeliest of connections, even by sarcasm's standards, is made. Both players are Canadian-born, of course, and neither have been to Belfast before. Though they'll be there for just three days before departing for Prague on Sunday, the anticipation isn't lost on either of them.
"It will be good to see some family," Thornton said. "I've met some of them — they used to come over and visit my grandmother over time — so it will be good to see them again and hopefully get some local knowledge of the city."
Bergeron, whose father's last name actually is Cleary, is definitely excited for the trip, though it's unlikely he'll play the role as resident Belfast expert like Thornton hopes he will. Asked if he and Bergeron would embrace the culture heavily through the wearing of scally caps to truly reflect their Irish heritage, Thornton didn't hide mask his pride a bit.
"I've got tons of them. We're going to look for some while we're over there, but I'll be bringing a few just in case," he said."
Especially in the case of Prague, many players have some places in mind when it comes to sight-seeing. Bergeron spoke of how beautiful he found the city when he last played there in 2004 representing Canada in the World Championships.
For the Belfast leg of the trip, Thornton has put forth an effort in looking up interesting spots to take teammates during the team's three days in Northern Ireland. That doesn't mean he still won't rely heavily on the natives in his family to direct him.
"I'm sure I don't retain as much information as I should when I [research places], so I'll probably just play it by ear when I get over there," Thornton said. "I've got aunts and uncles that will be taking me around. I'm sure their knowledge of it is better than what I can find on Wikipedia."
Capitals 4, Bruins 1
|09.29.10 at 10:35 pm ET
And finally, it's off to Europe.
The 24 hours leading up to Wednesday night's red-eye, 5 1/2-hour flight to Belfast, couldn't have been more hectic for the Bruins.
They played Tuesday night in Washington and lost to the Capitals, 3-2, in a tense game that featured third-period rough-housing between Gregory Campbell and Alexander Ovechkin.
They hopped on a plane and had to come to Boston for the team's annual media day Wednesday morning.
They then went home to finish up packing for a 12-day trip to Europe and came back to play the same Capitals team at TD Garden.
So it was hardly a surprise that in their final North American preseason tuneup before getting on a plane for Belfast, Ireland and their season opener on Oct. 9 in Prague, the Bruins dropped a 4-1 decision to the Capitals.
Tim Thomas saw his first action of the preseason and played all 60 minutes, allowing four goals on 24 shots. Niklas Backstrom scored the first two goals before the Capitals built their lead to 4-0 early in the third period.
Mark Recchi scored his first of the preseason midway through the third on a power play, with assists from Patrice Bergeron and Michael Ryder. The Bruins left immediately after the game for Logan Airport, where they caught a charter flight to Belfast. They will play an elite area team in Ireland on Oct. 3 before opening with the Phoenix Coyotes in a pair of games Oct. 9 and 10.
The Bruins finished their NHL portion of preseason with a 1-3-1 mark, while the Capitals, who did not travel superstar Alexander Ovechkin to Boston, remained perfect at 4-0-0 in preseason.
Second period summary: Capitals 2, Bruins 0
|09.29.10 at 8:34 pm ET
With the second period wrapped up at the Garden, a couple of things have stood out that may be worth keeping an eye on in the Bruins' final period of regulation before they depart for Belfast.
One thing that could easily be counted was the number of power play opportunities the Bruins had. That was four. The team applied good pressure on Capitals goalie Braden Holtby and moved the puck well for the most part, though some of their scoring opportunities were broken up by either blocked shots or one too many passes.
The number that is difficult to pinpoint is just how many times the Bruins either seemed to have beaten/fooled Holtby, tied in with how many times the Capitals netminder was badly out of position and didn't pay for it. The team's best opportunity of the period came when Nathan Horton fired a hard wrist shot past Holtby only to see it clank off the post.
The Capitals added a tally in the second, a Nicklas Backstrom redirect past Tim Thomas for the Washington captain's second of the night.
Blake Wheeler collided with Holtby late in the period and immediately left the ice and walked down the tunnel, though he turned around and returned to the bench.
First period summary: Capitals 1, Bruins 0
|09.29.10 at 7:43 pm ET
Tim Thomas faced six shots and stopped five as Nicklas Backstrom beat the veteran goaltender on a one-timer in front of the net midway through the period.
With teammate Tuukka Rask in sweats up in the press box halo looking on, Thomas looked solid, if not spectacular in his first preseason action this fall.
The Bruins managed just five shots on Capitals netminder Dany Sabourin.
The highlight of the period came two seconds in when Bruins center Gregory Campbell dropped the gloves with Capitals center Matt Hendricks. Just 24 hours earlier, Cambell got into it with Alexander Ovechkin as the two exchanged pleasantries at the Verizon Center.
Ovechkin cross-checked Campbell, who later came back at Ovechkin with a hard hit into the boards. The rough stuff continued and escalated in the third period.
Ovechkin didn't make the trip so Hendricks was the stand-in and delivered the message at the earliest possible moment – the opening face-off.
As for the most anticipated talent in these parts since Joe Thornton, Tyler Seguin centered the line with Blake Wheeler and Michael Ryder. He played 5 minutes, 13 seconds and didn't get a shot on goal. He was on the ice for the Backstrom goal and finished the period with a -1.
No Ovechkin Wednesday
|09.29.10 at 5:47 pm ET
A night after the Bruins kept some of their stars out the lineup on the road, the Capitals are doing the same on Wednesday at TD Garden. Here's the Capitals' roster for Wednesday night:
Forwards: Matt Bradley, Boyd Gordon, Eric Fehr, Nicklas Backstrom, Jason Chimera, Matt Hendricks, David Steckel, Steve Pinizzotto, Andrew Gordon, Jay Beagle, Matthieu Perreault, Marcus Johansson
Defensemen: John Erskine, Karl Alzner, Brian Fahey, Jeff Schultz, John Carlson, Tyler Sloan
Goaltenders: Dany Sabourin, Braden Holtby
The Bruins forward lines are as follows:
The defensive pairings are Zdeno Chara with Dennis Seidenberg, Andrew Ference with Johnny Boychuk, and Matt Hunwick with Matt Bartkowski. In net for the Bruins is Tim Thomas, who is seeing his first preseason action.
Jacobs: Circumvention, demoting big contracts both costly games
|09.29.10 at 4:17 pm ET
This summer, it came to light that the Bruins were among the teams accused by the league of circumventing the salary cap with the signing of Marc Savard to a seven-year, $28.5 million deal. Though the deal was structured so that the latter years of the deal carried lower salaries and thus brought the overall cap hit down, it does not go past his 40th birthday and seemed to be a far cry from the 17-year Ilya Kovalchuk deal that was rejected before being tinkered with and finally accepted in an agreement that dropped the Savard investigation.
"I think they threw out a wide net and tried to be as inclusive as possible of everyone that they thought had extended contracts," Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs said. "Whether they thought it was fair or not, I don't know, but I didn't feel there was any problem with it. If we have to stand scrutiny, that's what we have to do.
"I think all the contracts have to be looked at that way, and at least from Boston's standpoint, I think the commissioner made a valued judgement on this and I think clearly the arbitrator agreed on the Kovalchuk one, so he was right there, but fortunately he put an end to it. It was a very expensive situation, though."
As for how the team will approach deals in the future, even with the NHLPA and the league reaching an agreement to prevent future circumvention, Jacobs noted that there's still plenty of reason to be cautious with contracts and how they fit within the CBA.
"I think Boston is going to be a lot more sensitive to that," Jacobs said. "Boston's going to be very aware of the circumvention areas, and there's a lot of things that can go into that terminology, circumvention. We're sensitive to it."
Jacobs had a few other interesting comments during his media scrum, with the Rangers' demotion of Wade Redden bringing up the possibility of the Bruins sending a big-money player to the AHL when Marco Sturm and Marc Savard return from long-term injured reserve.

TROY — Troy Civic Theatre director Jennifer Kaufman has announced the cast for season opener "Moon Over Buffalo." Cast members include:
George — Dave Nickel
Charlotte — Jessica Suba
Rosalind — Tina Hayes
Paul — Derek Dunavent
Ethel — Terressa Knoch
Richard — Steve Dietrich
Howard — Andrew Shamblin
Eileen — Bonnie Littlejohn
Married couple, George and Charlotte, were stars now touring in repertory theatre, and currently are performing in Buffalo, NY. Their daughter, Rosalind, has returned with her fiancé, Howard, to visit her parents, not realizing her old flame Paul is still with the company. Meanwhile, Eileen, the company ingénue, has discovered she is expecting George's baby and Frank Capra is supposed to be coming to watch the matinee to screen the stars for his new movie. Ms. Kaufman invites you into the green room of the Erlanger Theatre in Buffalo as relationships fall apart, exes get reacquainted, identities are mistaken, and no-one is certain if Cyrano de Bergerac or Private Lives is slated to be performed for Frank Capra.
"Moon Over Buffalo" is being presented Oct. 3-5 and 10-11, at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and at 2 p.m. on Sunday. Season tickets and ticket reservations are now available by calling the TCT box office at 339-7700. Information on the entire season can be found at www.troycivictheatre.com, or by following the theater on Facebook and Twitter.

As Speaker John Boehner said last week, this is a stalemate. Both Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Speaker John Boehner made appearances on Fox News Sunday yesterday with two very different views on how to prevent going over the fiscal cliff on January 1. Geithner said the White House has offered a very detailed plan (even though it has zero spending cuts), while Boehner said fiscal cliff talks are going nowhere, that President Obama wants to "ramrod a deal through," and that Obama has offered a "non-serious proposal."

Peculiar issue with Bumblebee/driver interaction

Peculiar issue with Bumblebee/driver interaction
The new 304.22 driver has become more accommodating for Optimus configurations on Linux, as it does not refuse to work in systems where no displays are connected to the Nvidia GPU. However, some people are affected by an issue that "GPU has fallen off the bus" error is produced when optirun is invoked. I have such a system MSI GE60 laptop with 650M GPU and I've attempted to investigate that issue.
For me, invoking some CUDA program was enough to workaround the issue. In fact, when testing 304.22 I've noticed that nvidia-xconfig -query-gpu-info has the same effect. Essentially, invoking optirun like this:
sudo tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<ON; nvidia-xconfig -query-gpu-info && optirun glxspheres
works, while omitting the nvidia-xconfig step causes "fallen off the bus" error.
Thanks to nvidia-xconfig being open-source, I was able to find out that the call to nvCfgOpenPciDevice is sufficient to prepare the GPU correctly for optirun. I've coded a short program that does nothing beside calling nvCfgOpenPciDevice, and that is still sufficient to run in place of nvidia-xconfig to make optirun work correctly.
However, it is most puzzling that calling that function from the bumblebee daemon or invoking that simple program using system() does not work! In strace logs I see that the sequence of ioctls looks the same, but open()'ing /dev/nvidia0 from the daemon returns -EIO. It looks as if the daemon was somehow "tainted" and unable to configure the GPU correctly, and that taint affects the small program that is invoked from the daemon (and perhaps the auxiliary X server as well).
How can that happen and how can I debug it further?

fingering the bean..
I just came off a great relationship with my 07 RFS 450exc to a 500 this past October. Having ridden the 08-11 generation with my buddies bikes the 500 is a different animal. While the chassis of the previous generation was great the new one is even better which you can only tell riding them back to back. The new 500 feels lighter and to me the same ergos as my 07 in the tank, seat to pegs etc.
Something interesting is how much lower the center of gravity is on the 500 than a 530. Sitting side by side it looks 1.5" lower under the skidplate, the swingarm looks to go in a bit higher on the frame than a 530 also. I have drug bottom twice creeping over an obsticle that my 450 would have cleared on the 500, but generally this is just an observation not a biggie.
The thing that got me on the new bike is the motor. Sweeeeet! Smooth and controllable, one sump system with more oil capacity than ever on a under 600 cc KTM. Bike gets super mileage, build quality of the engine is awesome, new die cast case is high quality.
I weigh 172 and the suspension is perfect for me.My buddies 530 is super firm and it is stock. Power hit on the 500 is there just more easy to "meter", 530 seems to have more low end grunt but comes on with more authority. If I had a 530 i would want a throttle cam.
I put a Scotts on my 500 and it is rock stable, wide open in sand or on the pavement. No head shake.
Give one a ride if you can

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 395 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by stranjeee27 hotel was great I stayed this past weekend in the luxury suite and the room was very clean and huge the staff was friendly and very professional! They gave me complimentary parking for the delay of our room being ready! It was very spacey and clean and relaxing as you walked in the only thing that did disappoint me was the pool. It was very small! May 26, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by ljonesfl The staff made our stay excellent. We just arrived home after a very nice 3 night stay at this Westin. We often choose Westins for our vacations and this one was on par with all that we have stayed at. There were a few hiccups that were handled amazing well by the staff. We brought our 3 year old daughter and she had a fantastic time as well. Will definitely stay here again. May 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Erica26 Prime location, great atmosphere Very pleasant stay. Great staff. Tito was very helpful. May 24, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by LadyJ21 Will never return I had planned a week long mini vacation for myself and boyfriend. Upon our arrival in our room, it had a musty smell. The shower did not drain at all. The room made our clothes very damp. The room remained muggy and hot all night. Because we arrived so late we just attempted to get some sleep. The next morning I went to talk to the front desk regarding the issues,and I was basically told that that is how all the rooms are. We have stayed at the Westin hotels before,and I can say this is by far no Westin Hotel. We were originally due to stay 6 nights, we checked out the next day. The front desk gentleman just said sorry but nothing could be done.Very poor customer service and they seem to not want to make there customers happy. Then to top off this experience they have doubled charged y credit card. I will never return to this facility. May 4, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Karen5566 Wedding experience We had my son's and daughter -in-laws wedding at the Westin this past weekend and it was absolutely wonderful. Delayynna was really great and is such an asset to your hotel. You are very lucky to have her.. She was so helpful with the wedding planning and knows exactly what to do to make it a wonderful experience for the bride groom and entire family. The entire hotel staff was friendly helpful and dealt with all problems in an expedient manner.Most of our guests were from out of town and stayed at the hotel and were very happy with the experience I would highly recommend having a wedding at the hotel April 20, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Don2015 Worst Westin EVER! I have stayed in other Westins and expected a pleasant experience. It was awful! The room was so small that 1 of the beds was against the wall. There were no "heavenly" beds. The windows were filthy, ruining what would have been a beautiful view. There was no hot water! After multiple calls about the hot water, it became intermittent at best. Other guests complained as well. We were told the our valet/internet package was reduced by $2/day, this never happened. The toilet rim was not cleaned all week. On the last day we left only 2 bath towels. We called down for help with our luggage, no help arrived. My husband had to go get his own cart & bring our luggage. When I called back to tell them that no one had come & it had been 30 mins. the woman at the desk was snippy. We called the valet well in advance for our car & had to wait. I've had better conditions at lesser named hotels. The LL lobby of this hotel is dingy & dirt. Carpeting is warn. There are no directions to help find the check in desk. Believe me if I could have found another hotel within walking distance of the meeting I was attending all week, I would have! Unfortunately the other hotels were full! I wouldn't recommend this hotel to a dog kennel! April 20, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by TJB99 Don't stay here Not a good first 8 hours at this hotel. I used my SPG point for 3 free night to play golf. My first room was disgusting- hair on the floor and soiled bed sheets. I just came home from a round of golf and wanted to watch tv and shower in the new room on a higher floor. The remote does not work and there is a broken light in the shower. I may have to change hotels and feel like my SPG points were wasted. They are lucky my wife is not here or there would be real trouble. Stay at another hotel. April 9, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Disappointed42015 Restaurant and bar slow and understaffed Beautiful location. However, very dated and worn furnishings. The bar and restaurant were extremely understaffed. Service was deplorable in both. If you like to wait 30 min to place an order, another 30-45 min or more to get the food or drinks you ordered and then another 30-45 minutes to get your check.....not to mention a 45 min wait at 9:30am to get a seat for breakfast. Also, if you like to relax by the pool, you will need to go poolside by 9am if you want a lounge chair. Very small pool with VERY limited availability of chaise lounges! Rooms were comfortable and quiet and views were superb. April 9, 2015
