Trend Micro Teams with Spanish Police in Reveton Ransomware Gang Arrests
CUPERTINO, Calif., Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Today, Spanish Police officials announced the arrest of one of the alleged heads of a cybercriminal gang that uses the ransomware strain known as Reveton. The apparent arrest of this alleged cybercriminal of Russian origin occurred in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Spanish police are working to extradite the suspect to Spain.
In addition, there were arrests of members of the same gang focused on obtaining funds abusing PaySafeCard / UKash vouchers. The Reveton gang apparently had a branch in Spain that exchanged these vouchers and converted them into actual money, which would then be transferred to the leaders of the gang in Russia. According to police this activity has netted the gang over one million Euros per year. Additionally, the Reveton ransomware is still in circulation and being used by others. As there is still an ongoing investigation, only certain information is available at this time.
These arrests are a tremendous result from the ongoing work and collaboration between the Spanish police and Trend Micro's eCrimes unit which works extensively and collaboratively with law enforcement authorities across the globe.
-- This is the latest in a series of arrests and take-downs that Trend Micro has been involved with. Other recent collaborations included the Ghostclick/Rove Digital takedown, the "Soldier" SpyEye disruption, the LuckyCat APT campaign and the IXESHE APT campaign.
-- Trend Micro's products currently protect against all known versions of Reveton.
-- This illustrates that effective work to protect customers from malware like Reveton involves not just technological solutions but active partnerships and collaborations with law enforcement agencies and government agencies.

Iran revises quake toll down to 227 dead, 1,380 hurt
Published on Aug 12, 2012 6:11 PM
TEHERAN (AFP) - Iran on Sunday revised downwards a toll from twin earthquakes that hammered the north-west the day before, saying a total 227 people died and 1,380 were injured, state television reported.
Interior Minister Moustafa Mohammad-Najjar, who gave the tally, added that "search and rescue operations have ended and we are now working to ensure survivors' needs in terms of shelter and food." The new toll was down from a previous interior ministry count of 250 dead and 2,000 hurt given hours earlier.
Mr Mohammad-Najjar told the television that half of the 600 villages located in the disaster zone had been damaged or destroyed.
The quakes, which struck on Saturday within 11 minutes of each other, measured 6.4 and 6.3 on the moment magnitude scale, according to the US Geological Survey which monitors earthquakes worldwide. Their epicentres were close to the towns of Ahar and Varzeghan, about 60km from the city of Tabriz.

It was 22 years ago that Cherry Wipple's fondness for herbs led to the annual fall Herbal Harvest and Original Arts and Crafts Show at St. Patrick's Episcopal Church in West Monroe.
"I read about herb festivals all over the country, and thought we could do it here," Wipple said. "It started as a community service," she said. "I'm real proud of how it's grown."
Chris Pipes has chaired the Herb Harvest for six years, each year bringing in new and different craftsmen, along with longtime favorites. ...

Feeling very girly in MJ Blush.
It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely products of a deranged imagination.

What a great weekend which started by sharing Rosh Hashanah with ComDiva and her family. We had a wonderful evening.
Saturday was groom the Wild Poodles of Somerville day. Neither poodle likes this activity very much and so it is a struggle to get through it for everyone involved. At the end we have clean sweet smelling poodles for at least a few days. Went wandering the local mall and got to try the new Narciso Rodriguez Musk for Men parfum oil. This is really good stuff and it is something I'm going to have to go try again.
Sunday a friend came up who is trying to learn more about fragrances and I took her over to Copley and we went through the latest releases. Once again, I think I'm the only one that thinks the new Natori is awful as my friend and her daughter both loved it. I have to also say for a fruity floral Marc Jacobs Lola is not bad especially when you're trying the other new releases like Michael Kors Very Hollywood.
A weekend where I was sniffing one place or another is a good weekend.
There is an ever increasing chill in the air but I'm going to try and keep summer going on my skin.
Carthusia Caprissimo
Carthusia makes two of my favorite scents in Carthusia Uomo and Numero Uno. Numero Uno is one of the better chypres out there, on me. I was very excited when I read Carthusia was re-issuing Caprissimo which was reportedly a former gem of a green chypre. I haven't been able to confirm whether this re-issue has any resemblance to the original but I do know that I like this version quite a bit. The top starts with a Mediterranean lemon accord mixed with green aspects. This is an opening that is bright and very common. For all of that familiarity I find it is one I like quite a bit. The heart of Carpissimo is a deep floral mix of jasmine, frangipani, and osmanthus. The green notes from the top stay in place to keep the floral heart from becoming too much the focus of Caprissimo. These three floral notes feel like they are made for each other as they create a heady floral bouquet. The base is a beautiful mix of cedar, sandalwood and myrrh. This mix of woods and myrrh make for a strong base that contrasts the green floral of the heart. Caprissimo feels like another take on a chypre without the oakmoss and the use of the myrrh works for me in that regard. If the original Caprissimo was indeed a green chypre it is my guess that this new incarnation is an attempt to stay true to that original while working within the new formulation guidelines. Caprissimo has average longevity on me and average sillage. Caprissimo is another winner for me from Carthusia.
Have a Masterful Monday everyone.

Hi, everyone!
I'm still flying high from a truly lovely start to the Jewish New Year, which kicked off with SMM and his DW joining us for dinner, and SMM's sneaky surprise of replenishing my AWOL Bois d'Armenie!!!! (How does one lose an entire bottle, especially one as big as B'A? I've been asking myself that for the last year plus as I dug under the bed and through shelves...) Have been reveling in having this favorite of mine back in my collection all weekend...
Today's SoTD is a continuation of my (latest) incense kick: L'Artisan's L'eau du Navigateur. On me, this one gets off to a slightly harsh start, making me think it wasn't going to work despite having many of my very favorite notes in it. Then, what I think of as the classic JC Ellena smoothness kicks in, and now I'm doing the Basenotes salute (wrist-to-nose, elbow down and forward, fyi) with embarrassing frequency. Dark, rich and intriguing. What I would call a masculine-trending unisex fragrance, and a winner.
L'eau du Navigateur Notes: Bergamot, galbanum, coffee liquor, cinnamon, cedar, incense, opoponax, leather.

Sorry, I'm becoming a bit of an infrequent flyer here. Life is just so busy at the mo. Nothing dreaful happening, just lots of stuff, you know?
But I still do mentally take not of my SOTD each day, even if I don't get around to posting it.
Today I started off in Chanel No22 edt. By jingo that's good stuff! Today the weather is quite warm so I get a lot of sweetness from it. Usually I say 'it smells like snow makes me feel' - your basic primordial joy. Good juice.
Now I'm about to go hit the supermarket I"ve topped up with some Opium. But to be kind to the other shoppers (and myself - it's HOT today! 27C!) I've gone for the lovely summer ltd ed - Opium Fleur Imperiale. I love this stuff. Because I love Opium, this is great because it opens the same, but the big diva has been on a diet and doesn't stomp around the room shouting at everyone now. Somehow they have made it smell 'the same but quieter'. No idea how those clever chaps do it, but I do love them for their remarkable abilities.
I'm reading Chandler Burr's Perfect Scent - the one where he follows SJP and Ellena as they each create a scent. It's fascinating. Such interesting insights into the industry.
So I'm off to hang out the laundry before I take Small to buy groceries and some more wool to finish the shawl thing I'm knitting. (Damson by Ysolde Teague for any fellow knitters on the board.) Small is doing better in school, bless her little heart, and seems to be making some friends. The bribery is still working and every day she comes out and says 'I was good! Can I have Smarties now?'
Hugs and Smarties to all and Happy New Year to you too.

First day back in front of the classroom after an all-too-short summer break. Many of the scents I would normally wear for the first day of teaching are just not going to work on this warm, sunny morning, so I am leaning toward another day in AL China Pearl.
Happy New Year to all who are celebrating, and Happy Monday to all!
Therese, I hope you feel better very soon!
I'm rather excited about my SotD, Royal Palm by Stephanie de Saint-Aignan.
This fragrance was created by Saint-Aignan to be the signature fragrance for the famous Royal Palm hotel in Mauritius. It is really lovely on me, from the slightly sweet grapefruit at the beginning to the gentle spice & woods drydown. I think it's perfect for summer and early fall. I haven't had it on long enough to report on longevity, but it is on the light side for sure. Here are the notes (from Luckyscent): Grapefruit, jasmine, iris, cardamom, cinnamon, pink pepper, black pepper, clove, vetiver, cedar wood, leather and incense.
Happy Jewish New Year!
I am wearing Bal a Versailles, as it was the bottle more close to me, while I was sitting with ice on my ankle...( I managed to strain it, getting out of my car, today. )
Bal a Versailles was my favourite perfume once, but I am not enjoying it lately.
Today I am wearing for the first time Ava Luxe Neroli Blossom EdP (thanks, Lilybelle!). This is just gorgeous!
My SOTD is Chanel No 5 eau Premiere, but I also have a test spot of FM Musc Ravageur on my wrist. It's coming off as hardcore manly on me, may try it out on the hubs.

I felt like something new today, so I transferred my Guerlain L'Instant samp (thanks, Misscasey! )from vial to atomizer and decanted a third of it all over my hand. It reminds me a bit of Chanel Allure Sensuelle right off.

As we walked to the car, a light mist started to fall, and the sun broke through....the golden light of late morning bounces off the tiny droplets of water...and all is good...
Starting the week with a favorite --- FM L'Eau d'Hiver
Our LAN card refused to work yesterday so I was not able to spend any time on www.
Finally off work today, finally got this state's ID card, finally went to buy groceries and -- do I need to repeat myself? -- finally got my picture taken for a passport -- hopefully will be traveling this coming spring. All in L'Or de Torrente.
It has cooled down about 20 degrees here and is raining. Who could ask for anything more?
Brielle, how did the inspection go?
Tang, may I say "Congratulations!" or is it too early yet?
Blind Sniff folks, start a September thread already, we are all waiting. Please?

Inspired by the Musc Ravageur thread, I'm wearing Creed Tuberose Indiana today (after checking to see whether I should be wearing scent #1 for the 3x3). I'm starting to warm up to this note. We're having a beautiful end of summer day here-- 75º, but rising. I'm appreciating TI more and more. Tastes really do change.

Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads

Hi all!
Today's SOTD was my first test of Serge Lutens Santal De Mysore.
Butter cascading smoothly over lightly herbal amber and a pinch of citrus, grounded with cinnamon. As the day wore on and the butter faded, there was a beautiful moment combining cedar, the residual amber, the sandalwood peeking through, and the cinnamon (with a pinch of butter remaining) that was deeply enchanting. The base was the sandalwood of the name, but quite weak after the seriously strong butter-fest in first few hours.
The middle was transcendent and the base was nice, but I'm just not sold on the top. But I can easily see how this could be grail material for some.
Oh, and my SOTE has been Creed Original Vetiver.
Typical bright Creed citrus, heavy on the neroli, paired with just a pinch of green grassy vetiver.

There is a gulf between environmental geoscientists and those who could be using science in planning and decision-making. There are numerous examples in recent years where scientific work has clearly indicated a direction in planning and policy, yet this has been ignored. This ranges from the global scale, where some countries resist scientific advice on natural hazards or climate change; to the local, where people live in places that are highly vulnerable to landslide, earthquakes, floods, or other geological hazards. Policy makers frequently ignore or are unaware of the natural variation in earth systems when making decisions, and commonly lack the long-term perspective that palaeoenvironmental research can offer. A Working Group was set up to address this problem.
Tasks of the working group
The main task of the group has been to educate, trainand assist scientists in:
Working group composition
Due to numerous demands on his time, Dr. David Liverman stepped down as Chair of the Working Group in March 2011. Dr. Norm Catto replaced Dr. Liverman, with the goal of serving as Acting Chair until the IGC Brisbane Conference Meeting in 2012. Thus the management committee is now:
• Norm Catto (Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada)
• Ken Lawrie (CIRO, Geoscience Australia)
• Monica Jaramillo (BC Hydro, Vancouver, Canada)
• Iain Stewart, University of Plymouth, UK
• Dave Liverman (Geological Survey of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada)
The working group currently consists of an informal listing of approximately 100 geoscientists, based on expressed interest through e-mail and two electronic means of communication. An electronic mailing list is being maintained and the Working Group page on the IUGS-GE website has an annotated list of links to websites of interest; extracts from proposal to IUGS – GEM; abstracts from a Nottingham workshop and links to presentations from this on Slideshare; and instructions for subscribing to the CEG-GEM listserv list.
Forthcoming event: GAC-MAC Session: Communicating Geoscience
Why don't people listen to us? Why do they continue to make mistakes, flying in the face of common geoscience knowledge? How can we increase geological literacy?
Policy decisions are often taken without effective input from geoscientists. Rather than leaving this as an insolvable problem, a better approach is to consider strategies, setbacks, and successes in getting geosciences messages to policy and decision makers, as well as to general audiences. This session will look at some of the challenges and possible answers to these common, occasionally frustrating questions. Potential topics include: effective explanation of geoscience issues to politicians and public; communication of geoscience concepts to other professionals; strategies and tactics for interaction with governments and institutions; discussing geological hazards; issues in working with various news media; communication of "bad news"; and what the would-be geosciences communicator needs to know to be effective.
If we believe that we do have important things to talk about, and we're interested in getting people to listen and incorporate our advice, communication will be a requirement. This session explores the issues and possibilities.
Geological Association of Canada-Mineralogical Association of Canada, 27-29 May, 2012, St. John's NL, Canada. http://stjohns2012.ca/
We have surveyed environmental geoscientists on their experiences and attitudes towards communication, and are currently compiling the results. The survey questions can be viewed here in either English or Spanish.
The Geological Society published a book of papers on "Communicating Environmental Geoscience" in November 2008, edited by working group members.
We have established a management committee of 5 people with international representation and crossing disciplines. They direct a programme of further workshops, training courses, meetings, publications and the establishment of a newsletter and web site to communicate the efforts of the group.

Lycée International de Los Angeles (LILA) is a nonprofit, private, dual immersion international school for grades Preschool-12th with five campuses in the Los Angeles area: Elementary: Los Feliz, Pasadena, Orange County, and West Valley; and Secondary: Burbank (6th-12th).
LILA follows the French Ministry of Education's academic program in a bilingual context.
Besides the scientifically proven benefits of bilingualism, LILA aims to gift students with the value of a constructivist education where students are actively involved in a process of meaning and knowledge construction.
LILA is committed to academic excellence in a nurturing and intimate environment that encourages personal initiative, creativity and curiosity. We aim to instill the love of learning in all our students.
On our international campuses, we stress social studies and the concept that we are all citizens of one world.
Our small, nurturing classes and small student-to-teacher ratios facilitate this.
LILA students live in a world community every day.

School Notes:
- LILA's core values are: first and foremost, academic excellence; collaboration, communication and community; commitment to the curriculum; utmost respect for all individuals within the school community; cultural diversity; and intellectual curiosity and open-mindedness.
- LILA teaches a bilingual immersion program from Preschool through 12th grade where students study subjects in both English and French. LILA follows the French Ministry of Education's academic program in a bilingual context. Teachers in each language are native speakers and the percentage of each language of instruction varies at each grade level. Beginning in Preschool, French is not simply a subject but also the language of instruction. English increases as the grade levels move up.
- Two teachers are assigned to every class, one a native French speaker and the other, a native English speaker, in order to support all students: LILA believes that ALL students should be supported to their full potential.
- Besides the scientifically proven benefits of bilingualism, LILA aims to gift students with the value of a constructivist education where students are actively involved in a process of meaning and knowledge construction as opposed to passively receiving information. Constructivist teaching fosters critical thinking, and creates motivated and independent learners. We aim to instill the love of learning in all our students.
- The vast majority of LILA's teachers hold Master's or Ph.D teaching credentials, and at the minimum, hold a Bachelor's degree. The core of the school's faculty is French by nationality and/or origin; most teachers have been trained in France and are certified by the French Ministry of Education's rigorous credentialing regulations. English is taught by well qualified native speakers.
- Because our children and teachers come from many nations (50 nationalities are represented on our campuses, with 39 languages), we stress social studies and the concept that we are all citizens of one world. Our small, nurturing classes and small student-to-teacher ratios facilitate this.
- 5 campuses: Los Feliz (Prek-5th) - West Valley:Tarzana (Preschool-5th) - Pasadena (Preschool-5th) - Orange:Santa Ana (Preschool-6th) - Burbank (6th-12th)
- Shuttles are provided for students from the Los Feliz, West Valley and Pasadena campuses to the Burbank campus secondary school.
- Each campus has its own director, staff, community and personality, but they all share LILA's outstanding international education and commitment to a full immersion bilingual program.
- In addition to receiving the U.S. High School Diploma, ALL LILA high school students take one of two programs: the IB Diploma or the French Baccalauréat. All subjects in both Baccalaureate programs are considered pre-college and advanced level, and are highly regarded by University Admissions personnel. LILA further requires students in both programs to fulfill 150 hours of community service as part of their roles as world citizens.
- LILA grads who complete the entire school program are accepted to the world's top universities: Princeton, Columbia, Stanford, Oxford, Edinburgh, McGill, UC Berkeley, Dartmouth, Brown, and Sciences Po. They take with them what their years at LILA have taught them: communication, adaptability, problem- solving and agility skills; and the confidence to effect change in their communities, their professions, and the global society in which they live.

To investigate whether serum anti-müllerian hormone (AMH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), or antral follicle count (AFC) are predictive for clinical pregnancy in in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients.
Serum AMH, inhibin B, FSH, luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2), prolactin, and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and AFC of 189 women under 40 years of age were investigated. Pregnant and non-pregnant women were compared.
Forty-seven (24.8 %) clinical pregnancies were observed in 189 women. There was no significant difference in terms of mean age, duration of infertility, body mass index, AMH, LH, FSH, E2, TSH, Inhibin B, AFC and total oocyte number between women who did and who did not become pregnant. Additionally, there was no significant difference in clinical pregnancy rates between the quartiles of AMH, FSH and AFC. (P values were 0.668, 0.071, and 0.252, respectively.)
Serum AMH and FSH, and AFC cannot predict clinical pregnancy in IVF patients under 40; the pregnancy rate tends to increase as AMH increases, although this remains non-significant.

EVA electric taxi can travel 200 km on a 15-minute charge
The EVA taxi prototype on display at the Tokyo Motor Show
TUM Create team members with the EVA taxi
Features of the EVA taxi include a front passenger seat that folds forward to reveal an integrated child seat, and an onboard smartphone-accessible system for entertainment, booking and digital payments
Article Summary
Given how many miles taxis put in per day, the concept of electric taxis is certainly appealing. That said, one problem is the amount of time that their batteries can take to recharge – most cabbies won't want to shorten their work day or do a split shift, in order to juice up their cars. With the EVA taxi, however, they wouldn't have to. The prototype vehicle can reportedly get enough of a charge in 15 minutes to travel 200 km (124 mi).

If you inspect these boats, would you find all that is necessary to survive out there on the big blue??
Just starting with spare parts for all the mechanical things on board? Spare halyards and other running gear? turn buckles, shackles and other jewelry to repair shrouds and Stays? Repair a sail? Repair the mast or boom?
Patience to take the events of every day on the sea with other people? There some people I will never go to sea with and having to deal with their angst.
Dealing with daily routine of a watch, and the maintenance of the vessel while off shore? This includes the ability to go long periods without having to turn on a TV or get on an electronic game system.
This is just a few of the details that will make the boat & crew ready for that long distance haul across the big ponds. And if they can't get across the Atlantic...Then don't even let them attempt the Pacific Ocean.
Please do a few coastal trips first to develop your skills on the boat and find out what is needed to improve the vessel for cruising.

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
Cpl. Bruce McKay of the Franconia (N.H.) Police Department ended his watch on May 11, 2007. McKay stopped a suspect after a brief pursuit. After being pepper sprayed, the suspect shot the officer four times, killing him. The suspect then ran over the officer. A civilian intervened and shot the suspect with the officer's service weapon.

The Girl Scout Cookie Locator app
The free application can be downloaded by calling GSCookies (472665437) from your mobile phone or by searching "Cookie locator" in the iTunes store or Android Marketplace.
For those without mobile technology, local booth information is also
available through the Cookie Locator on the organization's website.
Girl Scout Cookie Fun Facts
• Little Brownie bakes more than 4,500,000 Thin Mints Girl Scout Cookies a day during peak baking times.
• After exiting the oven, Thin Mints travel 300 feet on a conveyer belt to cool before being coated in chocolate.
• Samoas are the second most popular cookie next to Thin Mints.
• Do-si-dos and Tagalongs take 230,000 pounds of peanut butter a week.
• Girl Scout Cookies had their earliest beginnings in the kitchens and ovens of the girl members, with mothers volunteering as technical advisers.
• The first Girl Scout Cookies were sold door to door for 25 to 35 cents per dozen.
Got Thin Mints? There's an app for that.
Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington have entered the world of the smart phone with its new Girl Scout Cookie Locator app from The Kellogg Company.
No more waiting and hoping for the doorbell to ring to get your favorite box of cookies. Now you can locate the nearest Girl Scout cookie booth through GPS or by ZIP code, city or state and share the results with your friends or automatically add it to your calendar.
Even if you live on the outskirts of the county you can find the site of the nearest box of Girl Scout cookies in seconds. The app lists the locations as well as the times they will be sold. The booth locations, doled out by lottery to the troops, have all been decided so you can begin now and get an alert when the cookie sales start. Booth sales only last three weeks beginning Feb. 18. Need directions? Click on the listing to see a map of the location.
The app includes some fun features as well. You can find out your cookie personality and share with others on Facebook, Twitter and via e-mail. There is nutritional information: four Thin Mints equals 160 calories, two Samoas, 140 calories.
"Girl Scouts is about leadership and I love that the girls can use the latest technologies," said Michelle Clinch, director of communications for the Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington.
Not something Juliette Low would have imagined in 1917 — the first date on record of Girl Scout cookie sales in Muskogee, Okla., when Scouts in the Mistletoe Troop baked cookies and sold them in their high school cafeteria as a service project.
Money earned from cookie sales — $4 a box — goes to local troops for trips or activities as well as financial assistance if needed. It costs about $300 a year to support one girl in the scouting program. One in three girls needs financial assistance to be in Scouts and the Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington.

Ballot and comments from AP Pro 32 panel voter Bob Glauber of Newsday:
Week 13
BOB GLAUBER (Newsday)
1. Houston Texans - Another skin-of-their-teeth win in OT for the
Texans, who continue to find ways to win despite more shaky moments on
2. San Francisco 49ers - Another strong effort from Colin Kaepernick,
and Jim Harbaugh may have no choice but to keep him in the starting
lineup over Alex Smith. Not an easy call either way.
3. Atlanta Falcons - Another comeback win for Matt Ryan in a game that
just about finishes off the NFC South race. Even so, Falcons need to
worry about their running game. Might catch up to them at some point.
4. New England Patriots - Pats are on fire, scoring a combined 190
points in their last four wins. Defense is getting better, too. Ready
for another Super Bowl run?
5. New York Giants - Defending champs break two-game streak with
resounding win over the Packers, as Eli Manning breaks a three-game
touchdown pass drought with three TD passes.
6. Baltimore Ravens - Ray Rice with the biggest play of the season for
Baltimore, converting a fourth-and-29 to key an OT win over the
Chargers. Ugly win, but one that all but clinches the AFC North race.
7. Denver Broncos - Six straight for Denver, although Peyton Manning
had to overcome some early struggles before putting away the Chiefs.
It would take a colossal collapse for the Broncos not to win the
8. Chicago Bears - Jay Cutler for MVP? He should absolutely be in the
discussion, especially with how poorly the Bears play when he's not in
the lineup.
9. Green Bay Packers - Packers see a five-game winning streak end with
a weak effort on the road against the Giants. Just didn't show up.
10. Indianapolis Colts - It's looking awfully good for Andrew Luck's
Colts to get into the tournament as a wild card. Nice job by rookie
T.Y. Hilton with two TDs to spark the win over Buffalo.
11. New Orleans Saints - Saints can't protect Drew Brees against
49ers' ferocious defense, so they take a major step backward in the
wild card race. They'll need some help down the stretch.
12. Cincinnati Bengals - Andy Dalton once again shows why it was the
right time for the Bengals to let Carson Palmer go last year. Dalton
outplays Palmer in Cincy to keep the Bengals' playoff hopes on track.
13. Washington Redskins - RG3 puts on a Thanksgiving Day show in
Dallas and keeps Washington alive in the playoff race. A win over the
Giants on Monday night, and the NFC East race is up for grabs.
14. Seattle Seahawks - A double dose of bad news for the Seahawks:
They lose to the Dolphins, and face the possibility of losing their
starting cornerbacks to suspensions.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Bucs go toe-to-toe with the Falcons, but
can't put it away at the end. Now it's wild card or bust.
16. Dallas Cowboys - Jason Garrett sure didn't do much to help his
cause. Another poor effort in a home loss to the Redskins has Dallas
barely clinging to hope and Garrett barely clinging to his job.
17. Pittsburgh Steelers - Ben Roethlisberger can't get back soon
enough. Steelers are nowhere without him.
18. Minnesota Vikings - Remember that 4-1 start? Seems like forever
ago for a team that's 2-4 in its last six.
19. Miami Dolphins - Ryan Tannehill keys a 17-point burst in the final
minutes to beat Seattle and keep Miami in the thick of the wildcard
20. Tennessee Titans - Offensive coordinator Chris Palmer is shown the
door after Jake Locker's poor effort in Jacksonville. Now it's
quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains' turn to call the plays.
21. Detroit Lions - That's nine straight Thanksgiving Day losses for
the Lions, but this one hurt just a little bit more, thanks to that
huge challenge flag gaffe by Jim Schwartz.
22. Buffalo Bills - Chan Gailey still thinks there's a chance for a
playoff run, but his team's performance sure indicates otherwise.
23. St. Louis Rams - Janoris Jenkins takes two Ryan Lindley
interceptions to the house, and the Rams' defense shuts out the
Cardinals in the second half to double last year's win total.
24. San Diego Chargers - This keeps getting more painful by the week.
Chargers allow Ray Rice to convert a fourth-and-29 in the fourth
quarter, and the Bolts lose in OT. Big changes coming soon in San
25. New York Jets - Even Fireman Ed can't bear to keep cheering for
these guys. J-E-T-S, JETS! JETS! JETS! will never be the same without
26. Cleveland Browns - Season might be lost, but beating Pittsburgh is
good no matter what the record says. Browns force eight turnovers to
shock the Ben Roethlisberger-less Stillers.
27. Carolina Panthers - When Cam Newton plays the way he did against
the Iggles, he's the most electrifying player in the league.
28. Arizona Cardinals - The losing streak hits seven, with no end in
sight. At least not until Kevin Kolb starts throwing passes again.
29. Philadelphia Eagles - Five more games remaining before the Andy
Reid era is no more.
30. Jacksonville Jaguars - Another impressive performance from Chad
Henne, who continues to make his pitch to be next year's starter.
31. Oakland Raiders - Time for Terrelle Pryor? Why not? Can't get much
worse for the Raiders.
32. Kansas City Chiefs - Oh well. At least the Chiefs get the chance
to draft their quarterback of the future next April.

FAMU lifts suspension of famed marching band
Thursday - 6/27/2013, 5:10pm EDT
Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida A&M University's interim president lifted the suspension of its famous Marching 100 band Thursday about a year and a half after a drum major's death led to the departure of school leaders and reforms trying to crack down on brutal hazing in the band, fraternities and other groups.
The decision was criticized by the parents of victim Robert Champion from Decatur, Ga., who collapsed and died after walking down a gantlet of band members who beat him with fists and instruments on a bus parked outside an Orlando hotel after a football game in November 2011.
"I don't think it's a problem that you can fix in just one year," Robert Champion Sr. said, noting that the problem has been going on for decades. "It is not the time to put that band back on the field."
Interim President Larry Robinson said the university has taking many steps to prevent and investigate hazing, including a revision to the anti-hazing and student conduct polices, student forums on hazing, an anti-hazing website, money to research hazing prevention and creating two new positions to address hazing.
"It has helped us to respond more swiftly and decisively to any allegations of hazing and any university group, emphasizing our board's policy of zero tolerance towards hazing," he said.
Pam Champion noted that there have been several hazing incidents at other FAMU groups since her son's death.
"We have to look at what has been done and whether what has been done is effective enough. They don't know. They've been forced to put something in place, but there is no proof that what they have in place ... is effective," she said. "I'd like to understand the rush to get that band back on the field. What is that real rush? What is your real priority here?"
The hazing scandal led to the retirement of band director Julian White and contributed to the resignation of former President James Ammons.
Last month the university hired Sylvester Young to rebuild the band. Young is a FAMU alumnus and one-time director of the Ohio University marching band. Robinson said he tapped Young because he had the experience and strong discipline to help the school decide when it was right time for The Marching 100 to return to the field.
Young said he was already holding rehearsals and he hoped, but didn't guarantee, that the band would be ready to take the field when the football season starts. The Rattlers open their season against Mississippi Valley State in the MEAC/SWAC challenge in Orlando on Sept. 1. Their first home game is Sept. 7 against Tennessee State.
"We've been working toward that for the past month," Young said. "We'll see. We're moving in the right direction."
About 14 band members have been charged criminally in the beating and several have pleaded no contest or guilty to reduced charges to avoid manslaughter convictions.
A group of students outside the press conference, including many in Marching 100 T-shirts, cheered loudly when the announcement was made, though most refused to comment when reporters approached them afterward.
Rattlers offensive line coach Edwin Pata said the return of the band should bring excitement to the field.
"I look forward to watching the band and then hopefully it can help our team with some encouragement and some extra motivation hearing them in the stands and their performance and what they do for the fan base," Pata said. "I'm excited about it."
Freshman Aleya Bradley smiled as she talked about watching the band, saying she has seen the Marching 100 many times dating back to her early childhood. She wasn't sure she would see the band this school year.
"I figured as if it's not going to be that exciting," she said. "But since the band will be back, my freshman year will be the best experience ever."
Young said the issue of hazing was being addressed with each band member in the hopes of ending the longstanding tradition.
"It's on everybody's mind," he said. "There's a process we go through with every student, and so I'm thinking, in time, the culture of the band will change and hopefully when that changes the band will be what it should be. This band is really important to this university and of course to the state of Florida and the city of Tallahassee."

NEC Develops World's First Multi-Frequency, Multi-Protocol RFID Reader/Writer.
With the market exhibiting a mix of RFID tags with different frequencies and protocols, the unavailability of a dedicated reader/writer for all RFID tags has created a bottleneck in expansion of the RFID market. The newly developed multi-RFID reader/writer makes it possible to read and write any RFID tag information contained in any product or item with this one device by supporting all the major RFID tags presently in use around the world. In addition, the new multi-RFID reader/writer is configured to allow easy expansion of functions through the additional installation of new network software, thereby making it unnecessary to replace the reader/writer when new protocol RFID tags are introduced on the market.
"NEC has always been an enthusiastic promoter of products and solutions that incorporate RFID technology through an array of partnerships and collaborative ventures, including the joint development with Toyo Seikan of the world's first RFID tag-embedded plastic bottle cap," said Taiki Matsuo, General Manager of the Ubiquitous Solution Promotion Division, NEC Corporation. "The development of our new multi-reader/writer, which supports a variety of leading global protocols, is an integral part of NEC's commitment to the continued advancement of RFID technology."
NEC will continue to draw on its collective know-how to develop dedicated LSI that will bring about a more compact and low-cost reader/writer. This will enable the device to be embedded into general consumer terminals, such as PCs, mobile phones and game machines, as well as stationary terminals at retail stores and facilities.
RFID has conventionally been used for corporate activities, namely SCM (supply change management) and traceability[3] for production and distribution. The advent of a reader/writer that can be mounted in regular consumers' terminals will enable easier acquisition of information on a company's products or services and enquiries through RFID tags attached to all sorts of products. It is expected that the use of this device will spread to the field of CRM (customer relationship management) to further link businesses with consumers in the future.
NEC will continue to expand its corporate solutions that apply RFID technology to enhance the use of RFID tags worldwide.
[1] The world's first multi reader/writer that operates in the 13.56MHz, UHF and 2.45GHz frequencies and is compatible with the 6 types of RFID tags as shown below.
[2] Protocol refers to the procedures that enable communication between a RFID tag and a reader/writer. The RFID tags compatible with the new multi reader/writer are as follows:
- Tag-it HF-I (ISO/IEC15693)
