Kara Of Illrain --- On hold!

Books were my best friends growing up. Harry Potter and Co. were like family to me. I went on an adventure many a time with childhood friends and fell in love with every single hero in Jane Austen's novels. Through books, i have come up with the "perfect" man and fully expect to grow old by myself because such a man doesn't exist. I have dabbled in writing a few times, but mainly stick to reading. Although, i have started a few books :P Hopefully the many, many books i have read will help me to write with the same enjoyment that each author obviously did. If you like my work, please at least vote! and any comments are well appreciated :)
I fan people who's works i like to read :) If you'd like to, fan back! but you don't have to :3
currently placed Kara of Illrain on hold until i finish surprising interest. writing styles are too different and i keep getting confused.
Read my short stories too for some descriptive writing and some (hopefully) character development :P i'm working on it ;)

The Archive Literary Festival at Duke University has a rich and distinguished history. Established in 1959 by Professor William Blackburn, the Festival began as a series of student-run literary gatherings aimed at making literature more accessible to Duke students. The Festival was originally named after The Archive, Duke's literary magazine (the second-oldest such publication in the country), and, in its first year, hosted writers William Styron and Randall Jarrell. In honor of its founding professor, the festival changed its name 1969, remaining The Blackburn Literary Festival through 2005, when it readopted its original title. Today, the Archive Festival tradition continues, sharing and cultivating a passion for literature throughout the entire Duke community.
Information about previous festivals under the Blackburn name may be found on the old website.

The bending technology area includes all manner of machines and processes for bending sheet metal, including press brakes, folders, panel benders, corner formers, ironworkers, notchers, orbital formers, and roll benders. It also has information on accessories such as gauging and backgauging systems.
February 14, 2002
For several years my work as a press brake consultant has taken me into many different fabricating shops. My job is to seek out problems and try to find solutions that make press brakes more productive. I have encountered many different situations, and I thought perhaps sharing some of the problems...
January 31, 2002
The flow of product through you shop is a key issue in determining your prosperity as a business. Drawing a little insight from the Chinese concept of feng shui might help you achieve the kind of flow you're looking for.
November 29, 2001
It's hard to believe that machines such as press brakes and hardware-setting equipment can move around on wheels or be moved by forklift and still function correctly. But I can tell you from experience that it is true and can be done.
November 15, 2001
Adaptive bending allows press brake operators to measure a bend angle during the forming process and feed the information to the numerical control. The article discusses springback and how to determine it and the fact that when air bending, 90 percent of problems result during initial setup, and only 10 percent result from springback. It also discusses using an angle control system, methods of measuring angles, and requirements for angle measurement systems.
October 25, 2001
The article discusses making small holes and when to use a punch or laser cutter, inside radius measurements and how they differ depending on whether you are coining or air bending on a press brake, and adding bend relief to prevent tearing material.
October 11, 2001
What sort of safety measures needed in your shop depends somewhat on your equipment, but making your press brake a safe piece of equipment is largely a matter of old-fashioned common sense.
September 17, 2001
When bending sheet metal, three terms apply to the radius of the bend: sharp, radius, and profound. A sharp bend has a radius less than 63 percent of the material thickness. A radius bend has a radius between 63 percent and 10 times the material thickness. A profound radius exceeds 10 times the material thickness and an entirely new set of rules apply. This article presents those rules.
August 16, 2001
Press brake manufacturers have made tremendous advances in the art of machine design and manufacturing.
August 16, 2001
Most common mistakes made while operating press brakes can be avoided with a little diligence and awareness of where others have gone astray.
July 26, 2001
Quite often I am asked, "Where can I get a bend deduction chart that works, one with valid numbers?" That's a good question.
June 18, 2001
Problems with your press brake imperil what could be the most valuable machine you have. Take pains to ensure the health of this valuable piece of equipment.
June 12, 2001
Understanding the obstacles to automating press brakes requires an analysis of the bending process.
May 30, 2001
One of the most important aspects of press brake forming is tooling selection. What are the tools capable of? What kinds of loads can they withstand?
May 15, 2001
What are urethanes? How do they work for radius bending? What is the proper pad type for my application? These are important questions to answer before using urethane tooling for your next job.
March 23, 2001
Prospective buyers of press brakes are advised to consider their purchase in terms of its end use, the amount of deflection likely to occur in a give machine, the inside radius of their parts, and several other factors before speding their money.

Sitter in 1 portrait
A solider, scholar and diplomat, Berners was made Chancellor of the Exchequer by Henry VIII in 1516. He assisted in negotiations for an alliance with Spain (1518), and attended Henry at his meeting with Francis I in France in 1520, a spectacular event known as the Field of Cloth of Gold. While Lord Deputy of Calais (1520-6), he produced, at the king's request, a translation of Jean Froissart's Chronicles which became extremely popular. Berners resumed his appointment in 1531, and died at Calais two years later.

Before Astorians turn on a tap for a morning shower, brew a cup of coffee, or start a load of laundry that water has already been at work as it flows down from the city watershed above Svenson turning a newly installed hydro electric turbine unit that was dedicated to service on Monday afternoon.
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., lauded the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approval of rules that will protect the free and open Internet:
"Today is a win for everyone who uses the Internet. The interests of individual Americans triumphed over those of corporate monopolies. These strong new rules will preserve the Internet we know and love, where start-ups can thrive regardless of the size of their wallets, and where people are free to speak and share ideas. The drumbeat of four million individual voices helped save the Internet," Wyden said.
On February 25, 2014 at 7:25 PM, Astoria Police responded to a report of a crash involving a pedestrian at Marine Drive and 23rd. Officers found a vehicle driven by 91 year old Astoria resident Nels Rasmussen which had a damaged windshield and a pedestrian, 33 year old Astoria resident Tyson Ybarra who was complaining of pain and had a small laceration to his head. Ybarra was transported to Columbia Memorial Hospital.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is establishing a Danger Zone in the Pacific Ocean offshore of Camp Rilea, Clatsop County, Oregon.
The danger zone will be in force only during weapons range training activities scheduled and managed by Oregon National Guard personnel at Camp Rilea. No person or vessel will be allowed in the danger zone when restrictions are in force. A schedule of proposed area closures will be furnished to the U.S. Coast Guard Astoria Command Center one week before training activities commence.
The Portland District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking public comment on its plan to accept funds from Clatsop Diking Improvement Company #9 on behalf of Oregon Liquefied Natural Gas. The Portland District will review Oregon LNG's proposed request to modify federally constructed flood risk reduction projects, to include horizontal directional drilling, auger boring, or over-crossing operations across such projects; and review potential effects to the Columbia River Federal Navigation Channel of horizontal directional drilling and dredging to create a ship turning basin.
One person died and two people taken to a hospital after a car crashed into a tree on U.S. 26 just west of Oregon 47.
Oregon Gov. Kate Brown says she'll continue a death penalty moratorium imposed by her predecessor, John Kitzhaber, who resigned in an ethics scandal.
An investigation by the Clatsop County Drug Task Force concluded in Gearhart late Tuesday evening, with the execution of search warrants and the arrest of 45-year-old Leonard Shane Hitchman on Methamphet amine related charges.
In the days since the report of an assault on the Astoria Riverwalk, Astoria Police have developed information that casts doubt on the initial report. Chief Brad Johnston said, "Given the number of provably false statements that the reporting party has made, there is no reason to believe that an attack by a stranger occurred. This portion of her report has been clearly recanted."

P. Weasels (Return to Top)
I don't care about interracial at all – as far as I'm concerned a dick is a dick – but I am always down for anything Jules Jordan puts out, even if it's just one of his associate directors. Chris Streams is one of those guys whose work is never especially kinky or extreme, just plenty of fucking and not a lot of frills. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect from The Brother Load (except brothers) and when I saw the cast list it looked like a gangbang movie, with anywhere between four and twelve guys per one girl in six scenes, but it turns out it is just somewhere in between. ...

Russell Brand Hosts 2012 MTV MOVIE AWARDS Tonight, 6/3
MTV previously announced that comedian, actor and TV personality Russell Brand will take the MTV MOVIE AWARDS stage for the first time as host when the show airs live tonight, June 3rd at 9 pm ET/PT on MTV from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California. Brand will build upon his triple-threat skill set to give viewers a new, off-the-cuff and unique spin on the past year's biggest films and hottest stars.
"This MTV Movie Awards will be more impressive than The Avengers and you won't have to wait an hour for someone to Hulk out," said Russell Brand.
"With his amazing ability to span the full spectrum of comedy from the most high to lowbrow, Russell's smart, unpredictable wit uniquely connects him to our audience," said Stephen Friedman, President of MTV. "His rock-n-roll sensibility and fearlessness give us the perfect partner with whom to take a leap of faith with as we meld the worlds of movies and music together on one very special night."
In 2008, Brand burst onto the US-scene as host of the "MTV Video Music Awards," which he again hosted the following year. Since then, his career has taken off to include starring roles in films such as Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get Him to the Greek, Despicable Me, Arthur and the upcoming Rock of Ages. In addition, Brand will soon headline a series of six half-hour late-night comedy specials that will be filmed in front of a live audience on the FX network.
Brand joins the ranks of past hosts such as Jason Sudeikis, Aziz Ansari, Andy Samberg, Ben Stiller, Jimmy Fallon, Mike Myers, Sarah Silverman and Justin Timberlake.
Fusing the MTV's musical core with the wonder and amazement of the comedy, drama, adventure and mystery inherent to the movie-going experience, the "2012 MTV Movie Awards" will continue its tradition as one of the most outrageous and distinctive televised award shows, while putting the spotlight on the most diverse roster of nominated films in years for the show.
Featuring a broad array of movies that resonated with the MTV audience this year, this year's nominees include both blockbusters and critically acclaimed films such as "Drive," "Like Crazy," "The Descendants," "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," and "My Week with Marilyn." MTV fans hold the "Power of the Popcorn" awards in their hands with voting available online via MovieAwards.MTV.com through Saturday, June 2nd. As always, voting for "Movie of the Year" will remain open throughout the live show on Sunday, June 3rd.

The November elections are over, but not for the Los Alamos school board, which has three seats up for grabs on Feb. 1.
The District 4 seat, held by Kevin Honnell; the District 5 seat held by Joan Ahlers; and the District 3 seat held by Jody Benson are up for election.
District 4 covers the Barranca Mesa, Western area, Quemazon and a good part of North Community, while District 5 covers the North Mesa and Ponderosa areas. Benson's district covers the Eastern area, Aspen Elementary and most of the Los Alamos town site.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The spending barons on Capitol Hill, long used to muscling past opponents of bills larded with pet projects, are seeking one last victory before tea party-backed GOP insurgents storm Congress intent on ending the good old days of pork-barrel politics.
You might call it the last running of the old bulls in Congress.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Retail sales rose for a fifth straight month in November, suggesting a strong holiday shopping season and raising hopes that consumers will boost the economy in the coming months.
The best month for department stores in two years helped lift retail sales 0.8 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Tuesday.
WASHINGTON (AP) — America's neighborhoods became more integrated last year than during any time in at least a century, says a broad array of census data released Tuesday on the impact of race and economics.
ROME (AP) — Premier Silvio Berlusconi won back-to-back confidence votes Tuesday in the Italian parliament, narrowly surviving one of the toughest fights of his political life. But violent protests greeted his victory, as rioters torched cars, smashed windows and clashed with police.
CLEVELAND (AP) — A storm that plagued the Midwest for days plodded into the Northeast on Tuesday, dropping heavy snow along already-buried lakeside areas and giving much of the region its first real taste of winter.
NEW YORK (AP) — An upbeat report on retail sales is giving stocks a boost.
All three major indexes moved higher Tuesday after the Commerce Department reported that retail sales rose for the fifth straight month in November. The biggest jump in department store sales in two years gave the holiday shopping season a strong start. Total retail sales increased 0.8 percent in November following a 1.7 percent gain in October.
The Los Alamos County Council terminated County Administrator Tony Mortillaro Tuesday night. The council voted 5-2 to fire Mortillaro with councilors Mike Wheeler and Nona Bowman voting against the firing.
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — The federal judge who struck down the very centerpiece of the Obama administration's health care law Monday is a George W. Bush appointee who earned the nickname "Hang 'Em High Henry" for his tough-on-crime stand as a prosecutor and on the bench.
Among those who have felt U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson's wrath is NFL star Michael Vick, who in 2007 received a nearly two-year sentence — and a dressing-down — for running a dogfighting ring.
Last week's release of a highly anticipated report concerning County Administrator Tony Mortillaro was put on hold because one or more county councilors raised last-minute questions during a closed executive session.
"Because of the additional questions, we will need to add an addendum to the report," County Attorney Randy Autio said. "However, even if the report with the addendum was complete, we can't release it until council takes action on it. Until then, this is still considered an active personnel matter."

Meet the Teachers
Adam Roper
Adam went to Bikram Yoga Teacher Training in 2004 at the ripe old age of 21. Since then, Adam has taught all over NYC as well as guest taught in numerous American cities and worldwide, including Australia, New Zealand and France. He loves the students at BYH because they are the most driven, dedicated and humble students he has ever seen. Adam is inspired everyday by the Bikram Yoga students uptown and feels it is an honor to be part of this community. Adam is also happy to be one of a small group on Bikram teachers who has been teaching full time for over 10 years.
When not at BYH, Adam enjoys being outside in various NYC parks, seeing theatre, and walking Sebastian copious amounts. Since 2005, Adam has lived in the triple digits and now resides on 181st street in Washington Heights.
Adam is a Director of Bikram Yoga Harlem and lives in Hamilton Heights.
Erik Cummings
Erik hails from the western coast of North America, in the wilds of Seattle, WA and Vancouver, Canada. When he was introduced to Bikram Yoga in 2003, he had a plethora of issues – stiff shoulder from a broken bone in a bicycling accident with a car a few years earlier, a condition of chronic hives that was debilitating that left him anti-social, and was several days past being in shape anymore. After studying at the Sweatbox in Seattle, Erik moved to New York in 2004, continuing his Bikram practice. Erik went to Bikram Teacher Training in Fall 2005.
Erik is a Director of Bikram Yoga Harlem and also lives in the area.
Angela Phillips
certified teacher
Angela fell in love with Bikram's Torture Chamber immediately and knew she wanted to teach. She became a certified Bikram Yoga Instructor in Fall 2009 and is excited to share her love of the practice in her neighborhood of Harlem USA!
In addition to teaching, Angela has proven herself to be one of today's most versatile, innovative and gifted young artist. She has amassed an impressive list of career credits nationally and internationally as an aerialist, choreographer and dancer. She was last seen in Disney's Tarzan on Broadway and in the smash Off-Broadway sensation De La Guarda.
Currently, Angela works as Associate Aerial Designer with Disney Theatrical Productions. She loves traveling the world teaching others how to FLY inside and outside of the yoga room.
Dr. Danielle Rothman, D.C.
certified teacher
Danielle attended her first Bikram Yoga class in September 2003. Interestingly, she first learned about Bikram Yoga while watching a reality dating show on TV. One of the couples went on their first date to a Bikram Yoga Studio. Danielle knew at that moment she had to find a Bikram Yoga studio in her area.
At her first class, Danielle fell in love with Bikram Yoga and never looked back. Danielle has been an avid exerciser since adolescence; however she finds the Bikram Yoga discipline to be especially unique. Bikram Yoga is not your typical exercise; it involves mind, body and spirit. This combination is very significant for Danielle who has been a Doctor of Chiropractic since 1998. Danielle finds the philosophy of chiropractic and the philosophies of Bikram Yoga go hand in hand. To paraphrase Bikram Choudhury (founder), 'If you can have total control of your spine and nervous system you will have total control of your mind, body and the rest of the world'
Danielle holds a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education and taught in the NYC Public School System in the early 90's. She also has a Master of Science Degree in Special Education. She is a licensed Chiropractor in NY and NJ and currently has her own private practice in Englewood NJ. Danielle attended Bikram Yoga training in the spring of 2007 in Honolulu Hawaii, and has been teaching Bikram Yoga regularly since.
Dionne Monsanto
certified teacher
Dionne did her 1st 30day challenge when she was 204 pounds in July 2010 here at Bikram Yoga Harlem. She was on medical leave from her corporate career, dealing with health issues and a myriad of family challenges. In a change of lifestyle revolution, she left financial services and signed up for Bikram Yoga teacher training. She graduated from Bikram Yoga Teacher Training in June 2012 over 70 pounds lighter in body and stress. When not teaching or practicing Bikram yoga, she is a mother of 2 teenage boys, certified life coach, West African Dance performer & teacher, actress, public speaker on mental illness, blogger, meditation leader, people gatherer and a generally overactive energetic yet sleep-deprived person. (Sleep, what is that? Isn't that what Ardha-Kurmasansa, Half-Tortoise pose, is for?) Also certified in Living Food Lifestyle she loves preparing smoothies and dishes (raw or cooked) for her friends and family. Committed to being happy when she grows up, Dionne lives her life "INjoy" in Washington Heights.
Emily Smyth Vartanian
certified teacher
Emily has been practicing Bikram Yoga since 2004 and teaching since June of 2008. She loves it! She is also a dancer and choreographer, and recently co-founded a company that uses aerial dance, so she can personally attest to the benefits of yoga for injury prevention.
She moved to Washington Heights in 2005 and loves having the studio so close! She is very happy to be spending time with her fellow Harlem yoginis and yogis. Happy Practicing!
Jelena Skoro
certified teacher
Jelena started practicing Bikram Yoga in 2005 while on a short term work assignment in Australia. She fell in love with the practice right away! Nothing that she had tried before made her feel as challenged, empowered, healthy, calm, happy and wanting more! She wanted to share this amazing practice with everyone and knew that one day she would become a teacher. That day finally came after eight years of regular practice, when Jelena decided to quit her busy corporate job and attend Spring 2013 teacher training. She spent the summer after training teaching in Belgrade, Serbia, and had an incredible experience helping bring this yoga to a place where it is still so new. Jelena is thrilled to be back in NYC, teaching and practicing with the most amazing yogis at Bikram Yoga Harlem!
Kiara Mereghetti
certified teacher
Born and raised in Milan, Italy, Kiara moved to New York at the age of 20. She grew up dancing starting at a very young age and she pursued dance professionally in her early 20's. She was introduced to Bikram Yoga in 2007 and fell in love with it right away. She became a Bikram yoga certificated instructor in 2012. She enjoys teaching at Bikram Yoga Harlem and she thinks it's a great place for the community to come together :).
Kristina Bruk
certified teacher
Once upon a time, when I was little, I decided to be a teacher, but it took me a lifetime and a double citizenship to find my subject. I studied music and majored in international relations in Russia where I grew up, then art, dance, and philosophy in California where my family and I immigrated. I had my first intro month in 2009 at a San Francisco based Bikram yoga studio, and practiced every day for a year since day one, and on most days after that. I loved the simplicity and complexity of the sequence, its intensity and the sweat, but most importantly I found that it taught me to accept and appreciate myself for who I was, to be patient and honest with myself. I finally went to Teacher Training in spring of 2013, shortly after moving to New York. It has been a long and exciting journey, and I love my work. I love you, my students, I love to see you progress and grow, and I learn from each of you. Always a student.
Luke Strandquist
certified teacher
Luke first started practicing Bikram Yoga in Summer 2002 and has been in the hot room just about every day since. As an actor and singer, Luke can attest that there is no better way to stay energized for a performance than these 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises. As a person who has also struggled with severe knee issues, he can also attest to the amazing, healing powers of this transformative practice. He is beyond thrilled to be able to share his love of Bikram with the fine community of yogis here in Harlem. Change your life! – Lock the knee!
Myrna Thomas
certified teacher
Myrna took her first class Nov 2008 and by the time the first set of Pranayama Breathing was done, she was hooked and decided she wanted to become a certified Bikram Yoga Instructor. Almost 4 years to the day of that fabulous 1st class, Myrna graduated from Fall 2012 Teacher Training in Los Angeles.
She continues to grow and be challenged in her own practice, as well as, in her teaching. Myrna is totally excited to be part of the Bikram Yoga Harlem community and looks forward to sharing her passion and enthusiasm with YOU in class!!!
Sharon Gunderson
certified teacher
A professional classical violinist for 30+ years and an interior painter for over a decade, I started practicing Bikram in October 2009. I was brought to my first class by my friend John, who was tired of hearing me complain about not being flexible. From the very beginning, I remember thinking "finally, this is where I belong". Not only did my flexibility and strength improve dramatically, but I found the tools for incredible mental focus and the power to calm myself in any situation (like performing onstage, where i'd always been debilitatingly anxious before).
In the past two years I've introduced several friends to the practice, but I knew the best way to share this unique, life-changing yoga with the world was to become a certified teacher. I graduated from the Fall 2011 Teacher Training on November 19th, and absolutely Love teaching. I've lived in Central Harlem for over eight years now, and when I'm not in the hot room you might find me swimming at Brighton Beach, year-round!
Stacy Futa
certified teacher
Stacy started practicing Bikram yoga in 2002 at Mary Jarvis' studio in San Francisco…brought by a friend with no warnings, no water and no expectations. It worked! She slept like a Bikram Baby that night and continued chasing that perfect night sleep, practicing at least four days a week. She didn't start drinking water in class until her Las Vegas teacher training in the Fall of 2009, where she learned all of her bad habits. She is more than thrilled to be teaching close to home in Harlem, where it feels so much like a family. A firm believer in the "detox to retox" lifestyle, she also bartends for Marc Murphy's restaurants.
Sule Marquez-Monsanto
certified teacher
Born and raised in New York City, Sule discovered Bikram Yoga after his mother returned from Teacher Training. After immediately falling in love with the practice, Sule decided to attend Teacher Training and graduated in the fall of 2013. If he is not practicing at the studio you might see him cycling or skateboarding throughout New York City. Sule loves that Bikram Yoga Harlem is only a 5-minute sprint away on his bike.
Yukari Hatakeyama
certified teacher
I was born and raised in Japan and came to the United States to further my education in biology and mathematics. Growing up in a family of health care professionals and believing in spirituality, I was taken with Bikram Yoga after just one class. When I practice this yoga method, I get the same feeling of rejuvenation, I used to get after spending a day at a public hot spring bath house in Japan. I always believe in my good energy and would like to spread it by teaching Bikram Yoga.
Sebastian Kumquat
general dogsbody
When Sebastian is not fulfilling his busy schedule as Bikram Yoga Harlem's unofficial mascot (receiving keys to cities, judging dog shows, handing out flyers on his walks in Hamilton Heights etc) he can be found curled up behind the sign-in desk.
Sebastian would like everyone to know that while Downward Dog is not one of the twenty-six postures in the Bikram series (surely an unintended omission), he is happy to demonstrate it to anyone who asks.
He was born on August 25, 2006 in Westport CT. Every year on this date, to honor his birthday, Bikram Yoga Harlem will feature a special tail-wagging membership offer. Be sure to ask at the front desk when August rolls around!

New PCI rules take effect Jan. 1, 2014. They include requirements designed to ensure that mobile devices used to take payments are secure.
With Cyber Monday 2013 come and gone, many companies like online retailer eBags.com have set new sales records—again. Sales for that retailer as of 10 a.m. on Cyber Monday were up 39% compared to 2012. Their overall Wednesday to Saturday online sales jumped 26% this year as well
Any successful retailer in the 21st century must be aware of success of online and mobile commerce. More and more people are shopping with their smartphones and tablets—18 percent of total online sales according to IBM—and the numbers are expected to skyrocket over the next few years. Various research studies predict mobile e-commerce to triple or even quadruple by 2015.
So what does this all mean for your business?
No matter who you are or what you sell, if you want to accept online or mobile payments you must adhere to The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council. The PCI Security Standards Council is "responsible for the development, management, education and awareness of the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and other standards that increase payment data security." The five founding global payment brands (AMEX, Discover Financial Services, MasterCard Worldwide, Visa Inc. and JBC International) all incorporate the PCI DSS as their data security technical requirements.
One major event that has impacted the e-commerce world is the release of PCI 3.0 in November 2013. The update is intended to make PCI compliance more of an elongated process rather than a single report on a specific date. PCI 3.0 goes into effect January 1, 2014, but PCI 2.0 remains active until December 31, 2014 to allow time for adaptation.
The PCI Council released this statement regarding the announcement: "Version 3.0 will help organizations make payment security part of their business-as-usual activities by introducing more flexibility, and an increased focus on education, awareness and security as a shared responsibility. Overall updates include specific recommendations for making PCI DSS part of everyday business processes and best practices for maintaining ongoing PCI DSS compliance; guidance from the Navigating PCI DSS Guide built in to the standard; and enhanced testing procedures to clarify the level of validation expected for each requirement."
Data for the update was compiled from feedback from hundreds of companies and stakeholders. According to this real-world input, the common challenge areas for change included:
Another recent and important PCI security standard topic is the new guidance for merchants on mobile payment acceptance security. Tablet and smartphone swipers have begun to show up everywhere from food trucks to taxis. Both the merchant and the consumer prefer the convenience and reliability, but how is the card data being protected?
According to a PCI press release on the subject, the new guidance addresses the issue of the smartphone, tablet or PDA being more than a point-of-service (POS) tool. These devices will most likely be used for additional business purposes as well, meaning the download and use of other applications could provide access to account data stored on the mobile device. The new guidance is meant to educate merchants on the proper measures to isolate and shield sensitive data from exposure.
Troy Leach, chief technology officer of the PCI Security Standards Council noted that "it is challenging to demonstrate a high level of confidence in the security of sensitive financial data in devices that were designed for other consumer purposes. Which is why we encourage merchants to consider encrypting cardholder data securely prior to using mobile devices to process transactions."
Security issues will be an ongoing battle as long as cyber crooks use their knowledge for criminal purposes. While some merchants view the PCI Security Standards Council as demanding and unreasonable, the safety of the consumer's financial data will always be a #1 priority. After all, if consumers stop trusting online and mobile transactions, they will simply stop buying products online or with swipers. Your best bet is to remain educated on all the latest PCI updates and comply with the regulations to keep your business in good standing with the Council and your clientele.

FCC: Spectrum Crunch Looming Sooner than Thought
Article Comments 16
Oct 21, 2010, 12:24 PM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
The Federal Communications Commission today published a report called "Mobile Broadband: The Benefits of Additional Spectrum." In the report, the FCC provides an analysis of the current spectrum availability and how that is likely to be affected by the growing of wireless broadband by smartphones and other similar devices. The FCC concluded that the spectrum deficit will reach 300MHz within the next five years due to a 35 times increase in demand for mobile broadband. The FCC believes that growth and demand will outstrip technology's ability to keep pace. Last, the FCC thinks the spectrum shortfall will increase the value of spectrum by $120 billion. As it stands, the National Broadband plan has called for 500MHz of spectrum to be made available within 10 years, and 300MHz of it within five years. The FCC notes that, because it generally takes between six and 13 years to make spectrum available, the government needs to enact steps to free up the necessary spectrum sooner.

Hey, I'm Yesenia!
Hello (: I am a 24 year old female student that has a passion for all forms of art, nature, and the outdoors. I love music, photography, painting, etc.. I play the guitar a little, skate (board), and love to hike, camp, kayak, bbq, go to the beach, travel, etc.. Surfing, snowboarding, and playing the drums are a few of the things id love to learn.
I am really responsible and focused in my schooling at the moment. Throughout the school semester youll most likely see me studying/ doing hw when at home (unless im doing it in my room, which is more than likely). Dont drink much but dont mind those who like to drink socially or once in a while.. I like to go out when I have the time but dont really have get-togethers at home anymore.
I am a really friendly, respectful, open-minded person. I love to meet people from other cities, states, countries. I love the diversity of personalities from one place to the next.
As a host I can either have a backyard b-b-q with you and tell you of great places to visit in town or leave you to yourself so you can have the utmost privacy. Its up to you. I dont mind loud music, as long as i can sleep at night especially on a school day. You are more than welcome to stay up late and enjoy the common areas if youd like. I am pretty flexible on anything as long as everyone is respected and as long as the house is respected as well.
Maybe someday you can be my host in your town (:

Slip in housing starts sends stock market down
NEW YORK (AP) — A disappointing report on housing starts made investors nervous about the economy Tuesday and sent stocks lower even as profits at many companies exceed expectations.
Stocks retreated from 2009 highs after the Commerce Department said applications for home building permits fell in September by the largest amount in five months. That is a discouraging signal for future construction.
Investors will get another measure of the housing market's health Friday with a report on sales of existing homes.
After several months of upbeat data, the past few weeks have brought signs that a housing recovery could be slowing.

A mutual fund is operated by an investment company which raises money from shareholders and invests in a group of assets, in accordance with a stated set of objectives of a mutual fund. Potential benefits include diversification and professional money management.
Mutual funds offer investors a portion of a portfolio of various securities, such as stocks and bonds. You and your Golden 1 Financial Consultant1 can review your needs to find the right mutual fund type for you, such as a growth, income or balanced fund. A mutual fund can provide the professional ongoing management of a portfolio manager. Whether you're planning for a college education, your retirement or simply looking for diversification, you may benefit from investing in a mutual fund.
An annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company to fulfill your future income goal. Benefits include tax deferral, potentially competitive returns and a lifetime income stream for the annuitant of the contract.
There are two stages to an annuity: the accumulation (pay-in) stage and the distribution (pay-out) stage. During the accumulation stage of an annuity contract, the terms are flexible. You can make one contribution or a series of periodic contributions. At the distribution stage, you have several options. You may either take out your assets in one lump sum or withdraw them periodically through a process called annuitization.* Your Financial Consultant can assist you with this process. You primarily have a choice of two types of annuities: fixed or variable.
A fixed annuity,** as the name implies, offers a fixed rate of return for a specific time period. The funds you invest are guaranteed by the insurance company. Fixed annuities are a relatively conservative investment since the investment risk is assumed by the insurance company.
A variable annuity** allows you to choose how your money is invested. Your investment choices can include stock, bond or money market sub-accounts, which are purchased in amounts called units. Variable annuities have a greater possible investment risk but offer the potential for greater gain than fixed annuities.
* Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.
** There is a surrender charge imposed generally during the first five to seven years that you own the contract. Withdrawals prior to age 59 ½ may result in a 10% penalty, in addition to any ordinary income tax. The guarantee of the annuity is backed by the financial strength of the underlying insurance company.
Life insurance can play an essential part in your financial planning. Benefits include a sum of money that your dependents can use as income, the ability to cover large expenses, such as college tuition or home mortgage or as an inheritance that is free from state and federal taxes. Life insurance is a contract between you and an insurance company. In its most basic form, a life insurance contract is a promise to pay a person you choose (your beneficiary) a sum of money upon your death.
A stock is ownership in a corporation represented by shares that are a claim on the corporation's earnings and assets.
A bond is a loan to a corporate or government agency. The bond issuer agrees to pay a specific interest rate for a length of the loan and repay the original amount of the loan at maturity.

2 You are advised to seek advice from your own tax professional and attorney.
Variable and fixed annuities are long term, tax-deferred investment vehicles designed for retirement purposes; but the variable annuity contains both an investment and insurance component. Variable annuities are sold only by prospectus. Guarantees are based on claims paying ability of the issuer. Withdrawals made prior to age 59 1/2 are subject to 10% IRS penalty tax and surrender charges may apply. Gains from tax-deferred investments are taxable as ordinary income upon withdrawal. The investment returns and principal value of the available sub-account portfolios will fluctuate so that the value of an investor's unit, when redeemed may be worth more or less than their original value.
** Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the investment company, variable annuity contract and sub-accounts carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the investment company, variable annuity contract and sub-accounts. You can obtain fund, contract and underlying sub-account prospectuses from your financial representative. Read the prospectuses carefully before investing.

New U.S. Environmental Protection Agency rules on fuel standards for ocean cargo carriers go into effect in August and the requirements will add to fuel costs for companies that ship consumer goods to Alaska, sources in the industry say.
There are also more stringent requirements effective in 2015 that are likely to result in additional costs.
On Aug. 1 the companies will be required to use fuel with no more than 1 percent sulfur, according to Richard Berkowitz, with the Transportation Institute, an industry trade association.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's release of a draft watershed assessment of the Bristol Bay region in Southwest Alaska on May 18 has given new ammunition to groups opposing the large copper-gold Pebble mine being studied for development.
Environmental organizations, sports fishing groups and some local communities are opposing the mine because of possible damage to fish-bearing streams caused by chemical releases from the mine, and prompted EPA to undertake the study in early 2011.
There was only modest bidding May 16 in a Cook Inlet oil and gas areawide lease sale, and an offering of leases on the Alaska Peninsula in southwest Alaska at the same time brought no bids in the sale.
State oil and gas director Bill Barron said the total of apparent high bids was $6.86 million with 44 tracts sold to three independent companies and one individual submitting bids. All 44 tracts offered in the Cook Inlet sale received bids, which covered 200,320 acres.
Anyone trying to figure out Alaska's oil and gas taxes and the changes considered by the Legislature this spring had better reach for the aspirin bottle.
The issue is complex, arcane, and if anyone needs a late-night aid to sleeping, call up a video of one of the seemingly countless legislative committee hearings held on the topic this spring in Juneau.
The $2.94 billion state capital budget for fiscal year 2013 approved in the closing hours of the 2012 legislative session is chock-full of projects. The good news, however, is that the spending total is within the range that Gov. Sean Parnell and legislative leaders agreed on, and Parnell says he will make minimal vetoes from the bill.
Fiscal year 2013 begins July 1, so Parnell must give final approval to the budget by June 30.
Marathon Oil Corporation will sell its Alaska producing properties in southern Alaska to Hilcorp Alaska LLC, the Houston-based company announced Monday in a press release. Hilcorp recently acquired Cook Inlet production assets sold by Chevron Corp.
The companies expect to close the transaction, subject to completion of the necessary Government and regulatory approvals, by this fall, Marathon said in the statement.
Despite new natural gas discoveries in Alaska's Cook Inlet utilities in the region will still experience shortages of gas supply by 2014 due to declining production in maturing fields, according to a new study of Cook Inlet gas reserves and regional demand released Monday.
The only practical alternative to deal with the shortfall is the import of liquefied natural gas, said Pete Stokes, commercial manager with Petrotechnical Resources of Alaska, an Anchorage-based consulting firm.
State agencies have identified some key technology and permitting challenges for a North Slope shale oil play, an official in the state Division of Oil and Gas says.
Alaska-based independent Great Bear Petroleum and Halliburton are working in a partnership to test the production potential of a large shale formation south of the producing Prudhoe Bay and Kuparuk Ruver fields, with the first two test wells planned this spring, said Greg Hobbs, a petroleum engineer in the state Division of Oil and Gas.
Morris News Service — AlaskaThe estimates were developed for the Alaska Health Care Commission by the University of Alaska's Institute of Social and Economic Research.
Businesses and families are getting hit: At $11,926 per employee, Alaska has the highest average annual cost for employee health benefits in the nation, twice what employers in some other states pay. Between 2003 and 2010 the share of health benefits paid by employees increased from 17 percent to 22 percent for family coverage.

Set in the turbulent aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, The Wreckage pits Vincent Ruiz against powerful agents who will stop at nothing to bury secrets.
In London, ex-cop Vincent Ruiz rescues a young woman from a violent boyfriend but wakes next morning to find that he's been set up and robbed. As he tracks down the thieves, he discovers the boyfriend's tortured body and learns that powerful men are looking for the girl. What did Holly Knight steal that is so important to them
Meanwhile in Baghdad, the bank robbery capital of the world, billions of dollars in reconstruction funds has gone missing and Pulitzer prize-winning Journalist Luca Terracini is trying to 'follow the money'. The dangerous trail will lead him to London where he teams up with Vincent Ruiz and together they investigate the disappearance of an international banker and a mysterious 'black hole' in the bank's accounts.

Comments about The Wreckage:
What a great book! This is the first I have read by this aurthor and I'm now about to buy more.
The characters are convincing and the storytelling is exciting, so it all adds up to a rattling good yarn Literary Review Michael Robotham brings his well-honed skills as an international investigative reporter to the world of high-octane thrillers. The Wreckage takes you behind the headlines coming out of Bagdad, and behind the power scenes in London and Washington. One of the best novels to come out of the chaos of Iraq; a penetrating peek through the fog of war Nelson DeMille I have seldom read a more chilling and suspenseful tale. Robotham makes you see the sand, smell the burning oil and feel the bullets flying past. Most thrillers are lucky to have one great character; Robotham has given us at least four. They sweat, bleed and cry with such raw emotion that you can barely catch your breath and the words on the page feel like a million needles beneath your clenched fingers. This is a writer who will give you a slice of the Middle East you will never see on CNN or Fox. Robotham is the real deal and we can only hope he will write faster David Baldacci
