Superman/Batman: Public Enemies On DVD 9/29/09
We've heard some buzzing about this animated feature for a little while. Now it has been given an official release date. On September 29, 2009, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies will be coming to a DVD player near you. This is the next DC Universe Animated Original and it will have a PG-13 rating. It will be available on a 2-disc DVD version, Blu-ray as well as a single disc DVD. The movie will also be available through OnDemand and Pay-Per-View.
Based on the Jeph Loeb/Ed McGuinness story, Superman and Batman have become America's most wanted criminals and are being hunted by both friends and enemies. Lex Luthor is President of the United States. He uses the oncoming trajectory of a Kryptonite asteroid to frame Superman and places a $1 billion dollar bounty on his head, along with his "partner in crime," Batman .
Bruce Timm returns as executive producer. Michael Goguen ( Justice League: The New Frontier ) is supervising producer. Sam Liu ( The Batman ) is directing a script written by Stan Berkowitz ( Justice League: The New Frontier ). The movie will also reunite the voices of Superman, Batman and Lex from Superman: The Animated Series and Batman: The Animated Series . In other words, Tim Daly is Superman, Kevin Conroy is Batman and Clancy Brown is Lex Luthor.
The 2-disc DVD will have over 3 hours of special features including a couple featurettes. The Blackest Night feature gives behind-the-scenes of BLACKEST NIGHT, the epic DC Super Hero event in which the dead shall rise. A Test Of Minds has Jeph Loeb giving his view on the two heroes. Dinner with DC: With Special Guest Kevin Conroy has the actor sitting down with the creative team behind the movie. There will also be a sneak at the next DC Animated feature and two episodes of Justice League Unlimited chosen by Bruce Timm.
What are your thoughts on this release? Are you going to mark the date on your calendar? Is a movie adaption on this story something that you want to see? What guest appearances in the hunt for Superman and Batman would you like to see?
advertising the Blackest Night Comic? Well done DC, well done. They are finally getting the concept of marketing. I really hope they do Supergirl next, not just because I'm a fan but because its a welcome tribute to Michael turner, not to mention the best Superman/Batman story by far. If I continue getting these dvds I'll have an entire collection of justice league unlimited. Which is a good thing.

Once I read the voice list, I was happy.
While Marvel movies are better most of the time (Batman Begins and TDK were so much better, but all of the other DC movies aren't nearly as good), DC has Marvel beat when it comes to animation. I mean, I saw New Frontier before I read it, and the movie is almost a carbon copy. And it's just as good too. Despite my greivances with Jeph Loeb, I will be sure to watch this movie, and I might even buy the DVD for the special features, which are always good for the DC Animated movies.

Throughout the last two years, I've been extremely impressed with the sheer quality that both Marvel and DC have shown in their Direct-to-DVD animated releases. As a comics fan who usually leans toward DC, I watched the Hulk Vs. film with a slight, "Can they really pull this off?" attitude. They did, they had before ( I went back and watched the Doc Strange movie), and I'm sure they will again with Thor: Son of Asgard and Planet Hulk. I'm glad to see that they are using animation not to gear towards the childrens market, but to comics fans in general.

Yes, Tim Daly! I always felt his voice was much better than George Newbern's voice in Justice League Unlimited.
Kevin Conroy will always be Batman for me, as much as i like Diedrich Bader on Brave and the Bold, Conroy just is Batman, more stuff with the better, also glad Tim Daly is back as Superman(Brainiac Attacks doesn't count)
Can't wait for 9/29/09 to get here soon enough. It's always interesting when Batman and Superman have "team ups" in episodes and I can't expect it will be any different with this movie. I would love to see what dynamic Wonder Woman will play here. During the Justice League/Justice League Unlimited DVDs there was a recurring theme throughout the movies of the relationship (hinted or otherwise) between Batman and Wonder Woman. Usually, in at least the comic realm, it's more Superman/Wonder Woman, so I really want to see how team Timm is going to handle this, if it even comes up at all. Imagine Wonder Woman hunting Batman and Superman. Epic conflict for someone of her moral standing.
" Kevin Conroy will always be Batman for me, as much as i like Diedrich Bader on Brave and the Bold, Conroy just is Batman, more stuff with the better, also glad Tim Daly is back as Superman(Brainiac Attacks doesn't count) "I'm not up on voice actors, but is this the same Tim Daly who was on the Wings television show? I can't remember exactly what his voice sounded like, but for some reason I'm thinking that it was moderately high-pitched.
yes he was on wings
" @Roxanne Starr: yes he was on wings "O.K. Thanks! Also thanks for being the guinea pig in my experiment to make sure I was doing this Digg thing correctly. ;)

For some reason, I have a feeling they might have a sequal
" I just saw the trailer for this. It looks really good!!!So it's more than just superman and batman that will be making cameos..Never thought I'd see major force in an animated film"
"Do we know who the voices for Supes an Bats are?"
the voices from the animated series....I forget the name of the guy who voices Superman but Kevin Conroy is doing Batman
"@danhimself said:" @Darkchild said:Tim Daly will voice Superman ""Do we know who the voices for Supes an Bats are?"the voices from the animated series....I forget the name of the guy who voices Superman but Kevin Conroy is doing Batman "
that's it!!!! thanks I couldn't remember his name

Hi everyone, i'm new to these forums, but i've been playing board games all my life, and just recently bought AH, and all of its expansions (because that's how i buy games:)
I have one query regarding Ancient One attacks, which i was hoping to obtain an answer for from you lovely people.
Namely, if, for example, Cthulhu begins attacking, and there are three investigators in the game, does that mean that during that turn alone, everyone must choose to lower their maximum Sanity or Stamina - or a combination of the two - three times - assuming that Cthulhu doesn't devour anyone before getting to the third Investigator, or do those special abilities only came into play once on each turn, regardless of player numbers?
I assume it's the former, which would fittingly make the final battle substantialy more difficult.
Thanks in advance.

23.07.07 - By Geoffrey Ciani: Its not too often that two elite boxers square off against one another and its even rarer when both are recognized amongst the sports top five pound-for-pound talents. Thats what made Saturday nights bout between Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright so special. Despite the fact many observers felt we were in for a lackluster affair, boxing enthusiasts were fortunate enough to have been treated to an entertaining scrap.
Hopkins was wise enough to understand Winkys jab was his key to success, and from the opening bell, it was clear that Hopkins was attempting to neutralize Wrights jab. He did this, very simply, by trying to turn the bout into a fight, rather than a boxing match. By smothering Wright on the inside, Hopkins tried to prevent him from keeping his distance and establishing a rhythm. This strategy enabled Hopkins to disrupt Wright in the opening stanza. A brilliant counter right ultimately sealed the round for Hopkins.
In the second round, Winky did a better job maintaining his distance, which enabled him to start finding the mark with his jab. Even still, Hopkins was constantly moving, continuously rolling with punches, and always giving Winky something to think about. In just the second round, Hopkins was already proving his superiority as the more versatile of the two defensive wizards.
In the third round, an accidental clash of heads opened up a grotesque cut on Winkys eye. At this point, Winky began complaining as if the head-butt were intentional. It was abundantly clear that Winky was bothered by the incident, both physically and mentally. He was thrown off his game plan, and because of this, I knew Hopkins was going to prevail. Hopkins has an uncanny ability for breaking opponents down mentally before beating them down physically. So traumatized and distraught was Winky after the head-butt that it was obvious he had already lost the mental battle.
After the head-butt, the HBO commentators hinted that Hopkins has a history when it comes to accidental head-butts. They likened this to another infamous head-butter, Evander Real Deal Holyfield. Manny Steward even went so far to say
coming in head-first is a big part of his (Hopkinss) attack. In other words, the commentators were suggesting Hopkins was a dirty fighter.
Winky rebounded in the fourth stanza by outworking Hopkins. In fact, the more Hopkins began turning the bout into a fight, the more Winky began fighting back to remain competitive. Pretty soon, Winky was fighting just as dirty as Hopkins, and the bout quickly descended into an all-out scrap. Those who felt this would be a tactical bout defined by defensive prowess couldnt have been any further from the mark.
From the fifth round on, Hopkins began dominating Wright on the inside. Contrary to the words of HBO commentator, Max Kellerman, Hopkins was effectively neutralizing Winkys jab. Even worse for Wright, he was being forced to fight Hopkinss fight. He needed to abandon his strategy simply to remain competitive, and for the most part, he did remain competitive, albeit, on the losing side of most rounds. As the bout progressed, Hopkins was landing the much crisper shots and appeared to be the much fresher of the two.
After a mini-rally in the ninth, Winky didnt appear to have much fight left in him. Hopkins used subtle brilliance to batter Wright throughout the final three stanzas and at the end of the fight, Winky looked as if he had just been through a war. He looked completely drained and it seemed as if a trip to the local ICU was certainly forthcoming. On the other hand, Hopkins looked fresh and appeared as if he could have gone another twelve rounds.
Simply put, Hopkins beat Winky up!
It is often the case that Hopkinss opponents look lifeless at the end of a bout, whereas, Hopkins looks much like he did before the bout began. Indeed, Hopkins seems better suited for some previous era where fifteen-rounders reigned supreme. He also resembles fighters from the old school with his uncanny ability to bend the rules.
Hopkins is very innovative and extremely clever when it comes to bending the rules. This is not to be mistaken with breaking the rules. When Hopkins bends the rules in his favor, its never blatant. In fact, Hopkins manages to shift the tide in his favor ever so cleverly, as he always manages to do so on the sly; the referee rarely catches him. For Hopkins, bending the rules in his favor is almost an art-form, and one hes quite adept at.
Whether its holding-and-hitting, charging his opponent head-first, or throwing punches that border below the beltline, its always done in style. Few pugilists in the history of the game can bend the rules with more suave than Bernard Hopkins.
Harold Lederman accused Hopkins of cheating and holding throughout the bout. The way he was talking, one would think he was watching a Johnny Ruiz boutthat was hardly the case. Ruiz isnt nearly slick enough to bend the rules like Hopkins; Ruiz breaks the rules, because his every move is inexplicably blatant. With Hopkins, however, theres never proof of premeditation. It could very well be that in the heat of battle, he does these things inadvertently.
Incidentally, Lederman scored the bout a draw, which in my opinion, reeks of bias. Even Jim Lampley and Max Kellerman hinted throughout the bout that Ledermans score was likely out-of-line with what the official scorers might have. They were being subtle, but the message came across loud-and-clear. I scored the bout 118-110 in favor of Hopkins; the three judges saw it a little closer, with two scoring the bout 117-111 and another scoring it 116-112, all in favor of Hopkins.
At his age, one must always wonder how much Hopkins has left in the tank. Is he the modern day Ageless Warrior cut from the same mold as Archie Moore? Perhaps he is. If nothing else, a strong argument can be made favoring said comparison.

Set in the winter of 2002 in chilly upstate New York, "After" tells the story of a middle class family struggling with the financial consequences of a failing family business and a series of intergenerational conflicts and rivalries. But, what truly threatens to upset their delicate balance-- and shatter the emotionally fragile family matriarch, (played by Academy Award-nominee, Kathleen Quinlan)-- is an intricately buried secret that, if revealed, could alter their lives irrevocably. A searing study of denial, deception, and self-delusion, "After" is also a powerful portrait of the lengths we go to protect those we love.

It would be great if a landscape photographer could make a living just shooting and selling prints. First off, you'll have to do promoting like other APUGers suggest to build your reputation. Once you have a reputation, you'll probably have to teach via workshops, a faculty position at a university or at a college. Other sources of income are stock sales and commercial work. I went to a talk by Michael Kenna and was inspired by his work. I saw some of his work at the Wirtz gallery in San Francisco and saw his 8x10 prints for sale at $600 each. Minus the gallery commission, he'll probably get get $300 at best. He also does commercial jobs. Here's Mr. Kenna's site.

Saturday - 5/26/2012, 1:53am EDT
This is the In Depth show blog. Here you can listen to the interviews, find more information about the guests on the show each day and links to additional resources.
Today's guests:
Owen Barwell — Managing Director, Grant Thornton
The Office of Management and Budget's drilling a new hole in your agency's budget belt and squeezing it a notch tighter. OMB's plan for 2014 requires a 5 percent cut for all agencies and evidence-based budgeting for requests on spending and grant awards.
Owen Barwell, the managing director of Grant Thornton and the former chief financial officer of the Energy Department, joins In Depth to discuss whether the 5-percent cuts are draconian or manageable as well as what agencies will have the hardest time adjusting to the changes.
Molly O'Neill — Vice President at CGI Federal
Congress has some ideas to help IT acquisition at your agency. But the pieces for success may already be in place.
Molly O'Neill, vice president at CGI Federal and former chief information officer at the Environmental Protection Agency, testified before a hearing of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Thursday, which examined efforts to reform federal IT spending.
O'Neill's testimony focused on the benefits of cloud computing and tech innovation beyond cloud, such as mobility, big data and IT procurement reform.
Jason Wilson — Reporter, Bloomberg Government
The Defense Department spent about $10 billion on cybersecurity over the past five years. But compared to other IT areas, cyber budgets are staying flat and might actually be a lot less than what you'd expect.
Jason Wilson, a reporter for Bloomberg Government, examined federal defense spending on cybersecurity for a new Bloomberg study. He joins In Depth to discuss the overall trends he's noticed.

Les Étangs de Corot
55 rue de Versailles, Ville-d'Avray, France
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
An elegant escape in a pastoral setting midway between Paris and Versailles — it's not the toughest thing in the world to sell. This was as true for Corot and his Impressionist contemporaries as it is for guests of Les Etangs de Corot today, and the hotel bears their influence to this day, each one of its forty rooms and two suites named for an artist who spent time in Ville-d'Avray.
Not to say it's a nostalgia trip. Though full of historical elements, the décor here has clearly been assembled with a contemporary eye. And as unthinkable as it may be, even the art-agnostic will find plenty to admire — you don't need a course in aesthetics to appreciate the value of a stylish bedroom with a view of the gardens and ponds, and Caudalie products in the bathrooms.
That last point could probably bear some elaboration. In its current incarnation Les Etangs de Corot is sister to Les Sources de Caudalie, which, in short, means it's the most ideal Caudalie spa experience this side of Bordeaux. We imagine twenty minutes' drive from Paris they'll do brisk business. Add a pair of restaurants, Le Corot and Le Café des Artistes, and there's little, if anything, that you'll find yourself left wanting.
How to get there:If coming via the A13 Motorway Paris to Province, take Exit 5 (Versailles Centre). At the traffic light turn left, crossing the motorway bridge and follow the direction to Versailles. After 2 km on the left, take the direction (Ville d'Avray). If coming from Versailles, take the Avenue de St-Cloud, then Avenue des Etats-Unis, following the direction (Ville d'Avray) slightly to the right. Les Etangs de Corot is at the entrance of the town of Ville d'Avray, on the right. Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com for further information or assistance with transfers.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Will Barton scored 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds as Memphis pulled away late to edge Alabama-Birmingham 62-59 Saturday night in the Conference USA opener for both teams. There were 10 ties and 16 lead changes in the third annual Bartow Classic. Legendary coach Gene Bartow died last Tuesday at his home in Birmingham at age 81. Adonis Thomas added 15 points on 7-of-8 shooting from the field for the Tigers (10-5), who won their fourth straight game and 12th straight in the series against the Blazers. UAB (5-9), which led 32-31 at halftime, took its last lead at 54-53 on an Ovie Soko jumper with 6:40 to go. Memphis then used a 9-1 run, capped by a Barton layup with 1:55 remaining, to lead 62-55. After Jordan Swing's 3-pointer with 1:03 left got the Blazers within three, neither team scored again. Cameron Moore scored 20 points to lead UAB.

I just wanted to get some valid feedback from the Necros on this board. Other threads have stated that the change is not that bad (my testing proves it to me), but I've seen others post how their Necro is unplayable...I really have a hard time believing this, but I think a poll will show some valid proof.
Please don't vote if you haven't tried it (unless you have a valid vote choice).
Sorry if this has already been posted, but I didn't see a poll.

Over the years, though not recently, I've had a few tough exchanges (some of them actually a bit testy), including (along with my colleague Bill Hamblin) a broadcast radio debate, with the zealous Calvinist countercult speaker, writer, and debater James White.
Mr. White, who is based in the Phoenix area, has traditionally focused his fire on Mormonism, Catholicism, and (I'm more comfortable with this) King-James-only fundamentalists. More recently, I think he's added Islam to his list of targets. (Frankly, I haven't paid any attention to his activities for quite a while.)
Although very often wrong, Mr. White is a bright fellow, and I remember his telling me many years ago that he was working on a doctorate in, I think, Reformation history at — if I remember correctly — Arizona State University. I reckoned that this was good, and actually thought to myself that his fierce take-no-prisoners partisanship might be moderated a bit by exposure to graduate research and academic discussion.
Unfortunately, Mr. White eventually chose to earn his doctorates — he now claims two — at a rather dubious, certainly non-traditional, "seminary" currently located in Buckley, Washington. (I think that, when last I heard of the thing, it was in Portland, Oregon.)
I'm not sure why he decided to do that. I certainly think that he has the intelligence to have done a mainstream academic doctorate. (Perhaps it's a matter of temperament, or, even more likely, of priorities.) Such behavior follows, though, in the unfortunate footsteps of such earlier countercultists and anti-Mormons as Dr. Deejay Nelson, Dr. Walter Martin, Dr. Richard Fales, Dr. John Ankerberg, and Dr. Dr. John Weldon. (Particularly on the latter two, see my comments here and here).
Anyhow, Mr. White and his degrees come to my mind again because of something sent to me this morning by my friend Stan Barker. It seems that others besides the evil Mormons have also noticed the shaky provenance of James White's doctorates.
I honestly don't understand the need for doubtful doctorates. There's no shame in not having a doctorate, nor even in receiving one from the University of Southern California. (While I was a graduate student at UCLA, somebody carefully installed a small brass plaque above the toilet-paper dispenser in one of the men's restrooms in the University Research Library. "USC diplomas," it read. "Free. Take one.")
But there's shame in claiming a bogus doctorate. And I just can't see why people like Mr. White — who are controversial and, by design, very much in the public eye — would want to come within light years of such a thing. It provides critics with a target that's simply too easy and too tempting.

2015 Biodynamic® First Flush Darjeeling Black Full-Leaf
Harvested from a self-sustaining, ecological farm in Northern India.
Plucking Date: March 27th, 2015
Lovers of the leaf, rejoice! The dormancy period is over and the Darjeeling hillsides are radiant with young, fragrant leaves. Rich in flavor, these prized Biodynamic® and Organic certified leaves steep a delicate cup, sure to delight the senses.
We are excited to bring you this year's first spring leaves from Selimbong Tea Garden in Rongbong Valley in Northern India. This prestigious Biodynamic® garden is located along the valley's hillside with altitudes ranging from 3,600 to 5,570 ft. Selimbong has been awarded the prestigious Tea Board of India Award for Quality. We selected this tea on site and had it air freighted to ensure the freshest tea possible. Regarded as the ultimate tea experience, limited quantities are available.
Large silver tips and abundant verdant leaves steep a smooth amber cup with very little astringency and a floral hint on the top note.
Each year, our limited edition First Spring Darjeeling tea label features original artwork that captures the essence of this rare harvest. This year's selection is from our citizen social media art contest chosen from multiple entries. This artwork was created by artist Norah Schoenfarber. It is the thirteenth in a series from our Tea Gallery Collection.
This pure, 100% Darjeeling tea is certified by the Tea Board of India.
More About This Product
Black Tea has less than half the amount of caffeine per cup than in a similar-sized cup of coffee. More about caffeine.
1. Fill the kettle with fresh, filtered water and heat to just short of boiling.
2. Warm the teapot by swirling steamy water in it and then pour it out.
3. Place one teaspoon of tea leaves into your pot or infusing basket.
4. Pour 6 oz of water per serving over the tea leaves and infuse for three to five minutes. Experiment to find your favored steeping time.
5. Serve the tea. Avoid letting the leaves stew. Enjoy hot or let cool completely and pour over a generous amount of ice.
6. Add the used tea leaves to your garden. They make a healthy fertilizer for flowering plants.

What our Citizens are saying about this great gift of the leaf...
|August 10, 2014
|This tea is delightful and soothing. The amber color is gorgeous, and the floral and grassy notes are perfect. I've learned to brew by color, and this prevents any chance of bitterness. The artwork on the can is outstanding. This one is a keeper.
|Tea Heaven
|July 23, 2014
|I recently recieved a 2013 first first flush darjeeling tea as a gift and fell in love. Then ordered 2 more tins of the 2014. Slightly different but both utterly heavenly. I make iced tea out it. Absolutely nothing better than a glass of iced First Flush Darjeeling tea on a warm day. Heavenly! I am so spoiled now!
|June 18, 2014
|We loved every sip! It's so pretty and fragrant. We feel special to drink it.
|June 05, 2014
|What an absolutely smooth cup of black tea! Light and refreshing. No bitter taste. I love this tea.
|Even better this year 2014
|June 01, 2014
|First flush Darjeeling continues to be my overall favorite tea. Every year I order four cans from Republic of Tea right away without hesitation. Different plantation this year, Jungpana, and a true winner. Highly recommended!
|First time to try a first flush!
|May 28, 2014
|I've never tried a first flush tea and I have been hooked. I love the wonderful flavor of this tea light floral and addictive! I look forward to next year's first flush and planning to order more then one can!
|Delicated, subtle and refined
|May 26, 2014
|This has a distinct flavor, it is both mild and full bodied. Nicely balanced and refined; you have to taste it to appreciate how special this tea is.
|May 23, 2014
|Wonderful taste and would definitely order more.
|Darjeeling at it's best
|May 15, 2013
|This was my third attempt at first flush Darjeeling year. Third try is a charm. My first two attempts were from well known estates, but had I not known better, I would have taken them for last years harvest. This one is fresh and all the qualities that I love in Darjeeling teas. I purchase tea from this estate several times last year and loved it. This batch is even better.

I am wondering if it is possible to convert a vector of derived class values to a vector of base class values. Specifically I want to be able to pass a vector of base class objects to a function whose formal parameters takes a vector of base class. It does not appear to be possible directly as the following code example produces an error (using g++):
#include <vector>
class A {
class B : public A {
void function(std::vector<A> objs) {
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
std::vector<B> objs_b;
test.cc:16: error: conversion from 'std::vector<B, std::allocator<B> >' to non-scalar type 'std::vector<A, std::allocator<A> >' requested
I would like to be able to be able to call function without having to define a new vector with elements of type A, inserting my elements of type B or changing to a vector of pointers.

Serves 2
1 bunch broccolini (about 6-8 stems), cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 garlic glove, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons goat cheese, crumbled
1. In a large stock pot, bring salted water to a boil. Blanch broccolini for 3-4 minutes. Submerge broccolini in a bowl of iced water or rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
2. Meanwhile, mix balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and garlic in a medium-sized serving bowl. Add broccolini and toss to combine. Sprinkle with goat cheese and serve chilled or at room temperature or chilled.
-- Jillian Abernathy, www.farmandafryingpan.com
Serves 4
4 medium golden beets
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Champagne or white wine vinegar
Sea salt, black pepper
2 large or 3 small blood oranges
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 heaping tablespoon thinly sliced fresh mint
1. Preheat oven to 375. If the beet greens are attached, remove all but a 1/2 inch of the stem. Reserve the greens and stems for another use. Put the beets in a baking dish, add water to a depth of 1/4 inch, cover tightly and bake until a knife pierces the beets easily, 45-55 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel the beets and slice into thin rounds.
2. Whisk the vinaigrette ingredients together.
3. Cut a slice off the top and bottom of each orange. Working with one at a time, set the fruit on a cutting board, cut side down. Slice away the peel from top to bottom, following the contour of the fruit and removing all the white pith. Slice the orange thinly crosswise. Repeat with remaining orange(s).
4. To assemble the salad, alternate slices of beet and orange on a platter. Scatter the onion evenly over all. Whisk the dressing briefly and spoon it over the salad. Sprinkle with mint and serve immediately.

Gallagher's Personal Identity Verification Solution Achieves Approval from U.S. Government
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/10/14 -- Gallagher Security, a technology leader in integrated access control, intruder alarms management and perimeter protection, has announced that its security management platform is now approved for sale in the United States.
The development of the Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12, has driven forward the establishment of the Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card as the standard credential for federal employees and contractors for access to federal information systems and controlled facilities.
The Gallagher solution, purpose-built for the U.S. federal market, is an end-to-end system with integrated Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) compliant functionality from a single manufacturer that leverages existing components. The PIV solution is the first to be approved without the use of a PIV Authentication Module. It is also the first to meet the reader range requirement - its technology reads cards at a 3.5+cm distance, providing the utmost flexibility for the user.
Further benefits include significant cost savings compared with non-integrated solutions, minimized device footprint, and ease of installation and maintenance.
"The US market is a top priority for Gallagher and we're pleased the U.S. General Services Administration has approved our solution," said Brandy Sloan, Gallagher's Business Development Manager, North America. "The launch of our PIV product is the result of an in-depth study of current and projected customer requirements, understanding of Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12, as well as a significant investment in research and development. We will now work hard with our channel partners to bring this innovation to the market." The highly effective system combines Gallagher's Command Centre and Controller 6000 (High Spec) PIV, to deliver a single, scalable security management platform. The Command Centre software works seamlessly with the user's Public Key Infrastructure and information technology network. Gallagher's powerful access control, intrusion detection, and perimeter security system also integrates with video and building management systems.
The Gallagher Controller 6000 (HS) PIV incorporates all the authentication capabilities demanded by the FIPS 201-2 standard, including meeting the federal enterprise-wide need for strong contactless authentication at electronic access control points and the provision of both role and attribute-based authorization. The system supports multiple devices and interfaces, including mobile. The Gallagher PIV Solution works with PIV, PIV-I, CAC, and TWIC cards.
Gallagher North America currently employs 72 members of staff based in Washington DC and Riverside, MO.

Along the walls in Tom Haight's Capistrano Beach home are photographs from under the sea – a small orange fish sucked into an anemone, a pygmy seahorse no bigger than a thumbnail, a manatee spiraling through turquoise water.
Haight, 65, retired from his job as a policeman about 20 years ago, and turned his underwater photography hobby into a business.
He's photographed the rare megamouth shark, an animal that has only been spotted around 50 times, and his work has been published in National Geographic, BBC Wildlife, Discovery Channel Books and the Orange County Register.
On land, Haight gives slideshow presentations of his pictures at schools in San Clemente, and makes his images available pro bono to Doheny State Beach.
Q. How did you first get started with underwater photography?
A. I was the first one in my family to dive. I read a book that was written by Jacques Cousteau, "The Silent World," and it was just fascinating. ... Someone I knew had an underwater camera, and he lent it to me... So I borrowed it and went out and shot some photos, and I went, "That is cool, I like that. This is a lot of fun."
It's almost like spear fishing, but you're not hurting the fish. Sometimes you have to stalk them to try to get the photograph. You have to be very patient and hunt them. Sometimes you sit still and wait four or five minutes just to get one photograph of a particular fish. Some of them are very, very shy. They'll hide, and you have to understand their habitat, and their habits, and their feeding, if you want to photograph them, so it's quite a challenge.
Q. How close do you usually get to marine life that you're shooting?
A. They're usually touching the end of the dome on my housing (the watertight protective case around a camera). There's a photo up here of a poisonous lionfish. His lateral fins were actually just touching the end of the dome of the housing.
Q. What animals do you photograph in Orange County?
A. I photograph anything I can find. Cowrie shells – at nighttime you go out, and you find the shells, and they actually crawl across the reef. Sand dollars; they stand up on end underwater. They have little hairs on the bottom of their body, silica, so they'll feed on the nutrients that are coming by in the water.
Q. What are some of the special challenges that underwater photography presents?
A. Gee, in the old days, if one out of 36 photos came out underwater, we thought it was a good day.... If there's a lot of stuff floating in the water, it's a real challenge to try to get a photograph because we've got all these little dots that will show up in the pictures. ... You're limited in how much time you have. ... If you go to 100 feet, you can stay for maybe 20 minutes. If you stay too long, you're going to have to make safety stops on the way up.
Q. What was your most memorable photo shoot?
A. The megamouth shark.

In Black Corona, Steven Gregory examines political culture and activism in an African-American neighborhood in New York City. Using historical and ethnographic research, he challenges the view that black urban communities are "socially disorganized." Gregory demonstrates instead how working-class and middle-class African Americans construct and negotiate complex and deeply historical political identities and institutions through struggles over the built environment and neighborhood quality of life. With its emphasis on the lived experiences of African Americans, Black Corona provides a fresh and innovative contribution to the study of the dynamic interplay of race, class, and space in contemporary urban communities. It questions the accuracy of the widely used trope of the dysfunctional "black ghetto," which, the author asserts, has often been deployed to depoliticize issues of racial and economic inequality in the United States. By contrast, Gregory argues that the urban experience of African Americans is more diverse than is generally acknowledged and that it is only by attending to the history and politics of black identity and community life that we can come to appreciate this complexity.
This is the first modern ethnography to focus on black working-class and middle-class life and politics. Unlike books that enumerate the ways in which black communities have been rendered powerless by urban political processes and by changing urban economies, Black Corona demonstrates the range of ways in which African Americans continue to organize and struggle for social justice and community empowerment. Although it discusses the experiences of one community, its implications resonate far more widely.
