Internet Explorer 9 is winning the fight with malicious downloads, but the truth is that end users are the beneficiaries of the new browser security enhancements introduced in the latest release of IE by Microsoft.
According to the latest statistics shared by the Redmond company with the public, Internet Explorer 9's SmartScreen Application Reputation feature is a massive contributor to keeping users safe from social engineering attacks designed to get them to infect their own machines with malware masquerading as legitimate downloads.
IE9 can block social engineering threats by warning users about either malicious websites or about potentially malformed software downloads.
"Through the SmartScreen Filter, IE has been effective at blocking socially engineered malware attacks and malicious downloads – IE blocks between 2 and 5 million attacks a day for IE8 and IE9 customers," revealed Jeb Haber, Program Manager Lead, SmartScreen.
"Since the release of IE8, SmartScreen has blocked more than 1.5 billion attempted malware attacks. IE is still the only major production browser to offer this kind of protection from socially engineered malware. From our experience operating these services at scale, we have found that 1 out of every 14 programs downloaded is later confirmed as malware."
By leveraging Application Reputation, IE9 is perfectly capable of warning users that the software they're about to download could be malicious in nature from the minute a malformed piece of code is offered to them.
By comparison, it takes security vendors hours and up to half a day before discovering a malicious download and updating their solutions with antivirus signatures.
"When it comes to program downloads, other browsers today either warn on every file or don't warn at all. Neither of these approaches helps the user make a better decision. Application Reputation also addresses a limitation present in all block-based approaches that happens at the beginning of new attacks, before a Web site or program has been identified as malicious," Haber said.
The software giant estimates that Application Reputation will safeguard IE9 users from no less than 20 million infections per month, offering additional protection on top of the SmartScreen Filter.
Perhaps the best part of Application Reputation is that it's actually working in convincing users to steer clear of potentially malicious downloads. The Redmond company reveals that 95% of Application Reputation warnings are heeded by users who either delete or not run the programs.
"Because programs and publishers can now establish a reputation, 90% of program downloads no longer show browser security warnings when users have SmartScreen enabled," Haber explained.
"From our data, the typical user will only see 2 warnings per year. On any given day, clicking through the "unknown warning" carries a risk between 25% and 70% of malware infection."
All in all it appears that IE9 Application Reputation is winning the fight against malicious downloads by doing something I once thought it was impossible to do: "patching the user."
Social engineering attacks rely on tricking victims into getting infected rather than exploiting a security vulnerability.
Although there's no patch for such user flaws, it turns out that offering comprehensive and reliable information / warnings to customers can help them make the best decision possible in order to stay secure.

Is Danyl Johnson the next Susan Boyle?
by Bob Sassone, posted Aug 24th 2009 7:28PM
Answer: probably.
This is video (can't embed it, unfortunately) of Danyl Johnson's first performance on The X Factor. Simon Cowell actually called it the best first audition he's ever heard in almost nine years of doing judging. Really? The guy is definitely good, but I think 58% of it is the audience reaction and the background vocals.

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Many of the firefighters who worked to put out the flames at Import Knights, Thursday, spent the day resting, Friday. Greensboro firefighters work 24-hour shifts and spend about a third of their lives together.
"It's definitely a learning experience for younger guys. We try to pay attention and learn from these things," Firefighter Tim Carrier said. "A lot of the guys you meet in the fire department are doing it for the people. They're not doing it to get recognized or be heroes or anything like that. They really love helping people and the city of Greensboro." Carrier joined the department about two years ago.
Greensboro Fire Department Division Chief Michael Swails has worked for the department for 25 years. "There's always the unknown out there. The worst case scenario. That is part of our job to prepare for that, obviously hoping that never comes, but when it does come, we are trained to handle that situation," Swails said. "It's just something that people feel called to do."
Swails said it's always difficult when fellow firefighters get injured. "It's a very serious time. There is a lot of thinking, reflecting. A lot of thinking about what we've been through. Our training. There's a lot of togetherness...We're a family," Swails added.
It's a job that could cost them their lives, but firefighters are willing to make that sacrifice to help keep the city safe.
"We know that this is just part of our job description and what we signed up for and what we train for," Carrier said.

FreeRTOS FAQ - How to get the most from the FreeRTOS support forumThis is a subsection of the full FAQ
Commercially licensed versions of FreeRTOS (OpenRTOS) come with professional support packages. While these are not available for FreeRTOS, FreeRTOS users can access the active and free support forum. I would encourage all users to assist by replying to support request posts that they feel confident in answering.
The Right Way to Post a Support RequestThe support forum is a fantastic resource for FreeRTOS users, but how much you get out of it will depend on how you use it.
Note 1The first thing to consider is whether it is the right place to ask your question at all. The forum is there to support the FreeRTOS kernel and nothing else. For example, please dont post questions regarding the configuration of unrelated microcontroller peripherals or registers, or how to use your tools, or the best way to design your application.
Note 2Next consider the subject of your post carefully. The more accurate it is the more likely you will receive a fast response. If possible, name the microcontroller you are using in the subject line. This will allow a more targeted audience. For example tick interrupt not firing on MSP430 as a subject will alert all MSP430 experts that they may be able to assist. While a post with a subject like newbie please help will probably not even get looked at by the majority of viewers.
Note 3The body of the post must provide the information required to actually allow people to answer the question. This may include:
Note 4 - actually submitting a postFinally, the body text must be fully descriptive but in the most concise way possible as long posts can be off putting. Where possible:
Copyright (C) 2004-2010 Richard Barry. Copyright (C) 2010-2015 Real Time Engineers Ltd.

Apheresis - what is it?
Apheresis (pronounced ay-fur-ee-sis) is a special process by which donations of plasma only or platelet only can be made.
- As the process involves returning red cells to donors at the time of donation, plasma or platelet donations can be made more frequently – every 2-3 weeks.
- Each time you make an apheresis donation you are able to donate a larger volume meaning you have the potential to assist more people.
- While platelets or plasma can be collected from whole blood donations, the apheresis process involves collecting the platelets or plasma using a special cell separator or apheresis machine.
- The machine spins the blood to separate the platelets or plasma from the other blood components in a cell separator, and the other components are returned to the donor through another line.
- Inside the cell separator is a closed, sterile system of plastic bags and tubing that is used only once and then disposed of after use.
- The process is repeated until enough platelets or plasma is collected, which usually takes about an hour. You can sit back in comfort through the procedure and read a book or just relax.
- You are under no obligation to continue as an apheresis donor and you can return to donating whole blood at any time.
Interested in making a plasma or platelet donation?

Obama's U-turn on Guantanamo seals fate of lone Briton
Posted By kurtnimmo On January 2, 2012 @ 7:16 am In Old Infowars Posts Style,U.S. News | Comments Disabled
The Independent
January 2, 2012
The family of the last Briton held in Guantanamo Bay, the extra-judicial US interrogation centre on Cuba, have spoken this weekend of their decade of torment as President Barack Obama appears set to perform "the biggest U-turn of his presidency" by keeping the prison open and signing indefinite detention without trial into law.
The family of Shaker Aamer – speaking as the 10th anniversary of the prison next week is expected to prompt worldwide protests – said his unlawful imprisonment had destroyed him and his family.
As a US presidential election year begins, President Obama is expected to renege on a 2009 promise to shut Guantanamo. Instead, he appears to be planning to keep it open permanently.
Mr Aamer, who has four children with his British wife, the youngest of whom he has never met, was captured by the US in Afghanistan in December 2001 and claims he was tortured before and during his time in Guantanamo. He said he was helping to build a school when he was seized; the US said he was fighting with al-Qa'ida.

'Superstorm' Sandy: Your stories
Staten Island After Sandy
- Anika3, CNN iReport producer
November 5, 2012
Hurricane Sandy ripped through Staten Island, New York in the same manner a prizefighter handles business in the ring – throwing punch after punch, looking to knock down what's in front of him, and doing so with no remorse.
Staten Island was hit hard by Hurricane Sandy but as I found out the past two days, the people who live there are not letting the destruction or the hardship break their spirit.
I visited the Arrochar neighborhood of Staten Island. It's located near the water, on the northeast side of the borough. The sounds of generators could be heard everywhere as people tried to pump water from their houses and salvage what they could. Piles of belongings and memories stood outside countless numbers of houses. The smell of the sea was very strong, even after much of the water that had temporarily turned streets into rivers had receded. Darkness came quickly in the evening as power was still out in many places.
The residents there described scenes of horror the night Sandy roared ashore.

DVAM Challenge 20: Congrats!
Today is the final day of October, Domestic Violence Awareness Month. We would like to thank everyone who completed the DVAM Challenge and who helped spread awareness of domestic violence in their community.
The challenge saw us build support systems, reach out to friends who are hurting, evaluate our own behavior and relationships, identify resources that could help and even unite our voices with the NO MORE campaign. We talked about on-going wellness and ways to recognize abuse.
We hope that this month of change inspires you moving forward in your work and in your personal relationships. The final challenge is to stay committed to this issue. Don't forget that domestic violence can affect anyone in any community. Remember that there are always advocates at The Hotline who are here to talk to you 24/7. Remember that you can make a difference in ending domestic violence, no matter the month.
Thank you for joining the DVAM Challenge.
DVAM Challenge 19: Think Ahead
Today is our second-to-last DVAM Challenge. We hope this October has been a chance of reflection and motivation for you. We hope it has been an important time of awareness for survivors, victims and advocates alike. For friends and family, we hope that you were encouraged to provide support to a loved one experiencing domestic violence. Thank you for taking this journey with us.
Change takes time. It requires that we continually renew our commitment in order to keep our goals on course. With this in mind, we challenge you to plan to stay involved with this issue. Challenge 19 — mark a few days on your calendar, months in the future, with a DVAM-related message. You could select days on which you'd like to volunteer at a local shelter. You could set reminders to reach out to a certain friend who you know is experiencing a rough time. You could mark days on which you'd like to return to our website and evaluate your relationship.

Keyshia Cole: 'The Way It Is Reunion Show' taping in Atlanta tomorrow (3/1)
My spies tell me Keyshia Cole will be taping her reality show in Atlanta tomorrow (3/1). BET is set to tape "Keyshia Cole: The Way it is Reunion Show," featuring Keyshia's mother Frankie, and sister Neffe in front of a studio audience.
According to my source, "security will be very tight." Audience members must pass through multiple checkpoints, and "all bags and purses will be searched."
The show's producer, Tracey Edmonds, is not expected to be on the set. "Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is" premiered on BET on July 12, 2006, and is BET's highest ranked reality show.

A source close to Rihanna's camp is disputing rumors that the rock Rihanna is sporting is a gift from her BFF Chris Brown.

"But I can tell you that Rihanna and Chris Brown have been together since last year at the Billboard or Grammy awards. [Their relationship] is not a farce," he said. "They're not lying."

Hundreds packed into the intimate Over Da Edge Lounge & restaurant on Wednesday night to see and hear popular radio host Warren Ballentine speak. Ballentine is an attorney who hosts the very popular Warren Ballentine Show on 102.5 (Grown Folks Radio) here in Atlanta.
My photographer Freddyo said the club was so packed there was no parking even blocks away. Ballentine sparked controversy when he told his radio listeners that he was voting for Barack Obama because Obama is black.
Ballentine challenged his listeners to "reevaluate your blackness" if they are black and don't vote for Obama too. "Ain't no white person going to tell me about black issues. He's black, he knows what I've been through," said Ballentine.
More photos from the party later.

Kids today, with their loud music and baggy clothes and preventing movies from winning Oscars. That's right: While 'Hugo' and 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II' have topped countless end-of-year critics' lists, it may not matter from an Academy Awards point of view, possibly because these films are geared toward, and star, children.
The folks at GoldDerby.com recently looked at some of the critically acclaimed kids flicks over the years that have been snubbed in both Best Picture and the best performance categories. From a 16-year-old Judy Garland in 'The Wizard of Oz' to an eight-year-old Justin Henry from 'Kramer and Kramer' losing to Melvyn Douglas in 1980, Oscar is certainly no stranger to shunning audience and critic favorites due to the youngsters on screen.
Obviously, this does not bode well for Martin Scorsese's 'Hugo.' And despite an early Oscar campaign for 'Deathly Hallows,' it appears the Academy ship has sailed for Harry and his friends. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait until Feb. 26 for the 84th Academy Awards to find out if this trend continues.
Head over to GoldDerby.com now to check out the entire list of kid-friendly fare snubbed from Gold Statue glory.

I currently digitize vinyl working with a technics 1210, an audio-technica at-95e, and the preamps built into my native instruments traktor kontrol s4. presumably, few people here will know what an s4 is. for purposes of this thread, it should be sufficient to note that the s4 is a midi controller (roughly speaking--actually, it uses a different protocol) which includes a 4-in, 4-out audio interface with 2 phono preamps that's geared towards DJs. the audio interface in the s4 might be comparable to standalone 4-in, 4-out USB 2.0 audio interface with 2 phono preamps in the $200 range (again, it would be an audio interface geared towards DJs so it would come with very low-latency asio drivers).
i am unsatisfied with the results i'm currently getting. i record with audacity at default settings (32-bit floating point, 44.1kHz). the gain in windows' volume mixer for the channel to which the 1210 is connected to is at 100%. the peak levels i'm getting during recording are at about -12dB to -15dB. (there's no way in audacity to further boost the volume during recording.) i don't perceive the audio quality as good at all despite the fact that i'm digitizing records in mint condition. (i'm trying to digitize vinyl-only releases so buying digital is not an option. unfortunately, in the genres i listen to--certain areas of house and techno--, vinyl-only release are relatively common.) on some recordings, the kick drum sounds muffled. on most recordings, i feel noise levels are excessive.
now, i certainly don't think the preamps in my audio interface are any good. the at-95e cartridge which i recently bought for EUR 20 is entry-level, too. does anyone have suggestions as to what preamp and cartridge to buy? as for my budget: EUR 500 (~$650) is my absolute max. ideally, i'd like to spend less. so i'd be happier if i can get something reasonable for, say, EUR 300 or so.

I used to have the Audio Technica cartridge, and it always sounded a bit hard to me. I would upgrade the cartridge and make sure there is enough analogue signal to drive up to as close as 0dBFS as possible.

"It was a mixed-up kind of day, as retail sales data was weak,
yet the manufacturing data was strong. Then we saw Citigroup Inc. (
) up strong on earnings, only to finish near its session lows,"
said Schaeffer's Senior Technical Strategist Ryan Detrick. "The
next few days will tell us a lot about how earnings are panning
out. So, it's tough to make much out of today's action." With that,
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI)
seemed to forget all about Friday's rally and gave way to a seventh
loss in eight sessions.
Keep reading to see what else was on our radar today:
Although the
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI - 12,727.21)
bounced from its session low of 12,690.05, the blue-chip barometer
still settled in negative territory, turning in a 49.9-point, or
0.4%, deficit. All but seven of the Dow's 30 components suffered
defeats, as JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s (
) 2.7% drop led the parade of laggards. Pfizer Inc.'s (
) 1.4% uptick led the bullish minority.
S&P 500 Index (SPX - 1,353.64)
couldn't escape the overall bearish mood on the Street today, and
posted a 3.1-point, or 0.2%, decline. Meanwhile, the
Nasdaq Composite (COMP - 2,896.94)
suffered a similar fate, and lopped off 11.5 points, or 0.4%, by
the close.
CBOE Market Volatility Index (VIX - 17.11)
charged 2.2% higher today, settling just below its intraday peak of

: "I was informed that I am the top performer at the mid-year mark

Oil futures jumped for a fourth straight session today, as the
dollar weakened on a report showing that U.S. retail sales dropped
by more than predicted in June. By the close, crude for August
delivery added $1.33, or 1.5%, to climb to $88.43 a barrel.
On the other hand, gold futures turned lower, despite poorly
received retail data and a
warning about China's state of the economy
. Even though the greenback took a hit, August-dated gold slipped
40 cents, or 0.09%, to settle at $1,591.60 an ounce.

Yes, it may be possible to have more than one auto insurance policy on one vehicle if there are two different people that want to purchase insurance for one car. However, finding insurance companies that would allow this "duplicate" coverage will likely be difficult.
Insurance guidelines differ so you would have to check with various insurance companies to see if you can find one that permits what you want. Typically this type of double insurance on a vehicle is not necessary and may go against company underwriting guidelines, since hopefully one policy would be able to cover all the drivers of the vehicle.
A situation that we can think where two car insurance policies might be placed on the same vehicle is if there is a co-signer on a car that wants insurance on it in case the primary driver does not keep their insurance on it as they should. This type of coverage is hard to buy separate from all the liability coverage that is required on a policy. Furthermore, a co-signer can request to be listed as an additional insured on a policy. They are then notified of policy status, just as a lien holder is notified.
Each person in this type of scenario would have insurable interest in the vehicle. If the drivers involved did not have insurable interest in the automobile, than it could be difficult for them to place coverage on it.
So while it might be possible to have more than one car insurance policy on a vehicle it might be difficult to find an insurance carrier or insurance carriers that would permit this since normally one auto insurance policy is typically all that is needed to cover a car and its drivers.

BEIJING (AP) - Chinese tech giant Huawei on Monday criticized U.S. claims the company might be a security risk as trade protectionism that harms consumers.
The comments came as Huawei Technologies Ltd., a maker of network switching gear and smartphones, disclosed details of its 2012 performance in an effort to show transparency and allay security concerns.
At a news conference, chief financial officer Cathy Meng expressed frustration about U.S. security complaints. She said Americans pay about twice what Europeans do for third- and fourth-generation mobile phone service and suggested it was due to impediments to competition.
"These measures using trade protectionism to interfere with free competition will ultimately harm the benefits of end users and consumers," Meng said. "As we continue to invest in this industry and work with our customers, our customers and markets generally see the value we create for them."
Outside the United States, Huawei has grown rapidly in developing countries and is increasing sales in Europe, becoming the first Chinese firm to break into the top ranks of global technology companies. It is challenging Sweden's Ericsson AB for the status of the biggest network gear supplier.
Last year's profit rose 33 percent over 2011 to 15.4 billion yuan ($2.4 billion) on sales of 220.2 billion yuan ($34.9 billion), according to Meng. Still, last year's profit was less than half 2010's high of 24.7 billion yuan ($3.9 billion).
Huawei is privately held but has released more financial details in recent years in an effort to ease concern about the company.
Monday's news conference was the first of its kind for Huawei and part of an effort to "honor our commitment to transparency," said Meng, a daughter of Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei. She did not respond directly to a question about possible plans for further disclosures about things such as how key company decisions are made.
Huawei was set up in 1987 by Ren, a former Chinese military engineer, to sell imported telecoms equipment and later started to develop its own. The company says it is owned by its employees and denies it is controlled by the communist government or China's military, but such concerns have hampered its efforts to expand in the United States.
In October, a U.S. congressional panel recommended phone carriers avoid doing business with it or its smaller Chinese rival, ZTE Corp. Beijing rejected the report as false and an effort to block Chinese companies from the U.S. market.
In Australia, Huawei suffered a setback in 2011 when the government barred it from bidding to work on a national broadband network.
The U.S. and Australian actions highlight concern about Beijing's cyber warfare efforts, a spate of hacking attempts aimed at Western companies and the role of Chinese equipment providers, which are expanding abroad.
Huawei issued a pledge last year not to cooperate with spying.
Its financial rebound came as ZTE warned Sunday it is likely to report a loss for 2012 of 2.5 billion yuan to 2.9 billion yuan ($400 million to 460 million) due to thinner margins on contracts in Africa, South America, China and elsewhere in Asia.
Huawei says it serves 35 of the world's 50 biggest telecoms carriers. The company has 140,000 employees and research and development centers in Europe, Silicon Valley and elsewhere. Meng said R-and-D spending last year rose 26 percent to 29.9 billion yuan ($4.7 billion).

Editorial: Brutality is its name
Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad celebrated the eve of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan by sending tanks into the rebellious cities of Hama and Deir el-Zour and killing more than 100 fellow countrymen.
Ramadan could be the make-or-break month for the four-month-long uprising. Because of the dawn-to-dusk fast and evening services at mosques, the streets of Syria's cities will be full of people, and crowds have a way of coalescing into anti-regime demonstrations.
The dictator's earlier strategy of offering liberalization and political reforms failed. He never followed through on similar promises to quell earlier demonstrations, and the Syrian people figured, no doubt rightly, that he wouldn't follow through on these, either.
So far, his security forces have killed more than 1,600 during the crackdown on protesters.
International response has been largely token and uncoordinated. There have been any number of stern denunciations of the regime, but only token travel sanctions imposed on leading members of the regime.
There is, however, some indication that the international community is trying to get its act together. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has met with U.S.-based Syrian activists and President Obama is said to be taking a second look at sanctions.
Russia, which has been opposed to a U.N. Security Council resolution on Syria, now says it is open to a resolution, but one without sanctions.
Some diplomats argue that ousting the Assad family runs the risk of a sectarian civil war that may spread to neighboring countries. Considering the increasingly violent measures in Syria, that seems a risk worth taking.

North America's largest queer theatre (call it gay and lesbian at your peril) dates back to 1979 and is a focal point for the gay community. Its heyday was the 1980s, when its then artistic director Sky Gilbert made it home to grungy, postmodern gay-themed plays that had edge but insufficient audience appeal. After a few years in the artistic wilderness of gay lowbrow fare, the company has changed its focus, offering risk-taking theatre that is straight, gay and in-between. There's a small cabaret theatre too.

An article yesterday in Slate discusses Sociologist Harry Collins's recent experiment with credibility and authority: "The Amateur's Revenge: Posing as a physicist–and getting away with it."
He did this:
In a recent experiment of his design, British sociologist Harry Collins asked a scientist who specializes in gravitational waves to answer seven questions about the physics of these waves. Collins, who has made an amateur study of this field for more than 30 years but has never actually practiced it, also answered the questions himself. Then he submitted both sets of answers to a panel of judges who are themselves gravitational-wave researchers. The judges couldn't tell the impostor from one of their own.
"Collins' feat startled the scientific community."
But so what?
Wouldn't it be a much better story to find Collins posing as a Runway Model or Vogue covergirl? That sounds a lot more difficult. Physics, shmysics.
A sociologist posing as a physicist (Harry Collins)
A physicist posing as a physicist (this one's Jack Tuszynski — oh come on, cut me some slack, I googled it)
A runway model posing as a runway model.
So what's so difficult? Let's see Collins pose as the model instead. Then we have a story.

The Great American Argument
December 24, 2010
Ratification: The People Debate the Constitution, 1787 - 1788 By Pauline Maier (Simon & Schuster, 589 pp., $30) At the Wisconsin Historical Society in Madison, one of the greatest editorial projects in American history has been under way for nearly thirty-five years. Since 1976, the successive editors of the Documentary History of the Ratification of the Constitution have published twenty-three volumes, and there are at least eight more to come.

The Republic of Letters: The Correspondence Between Thomas Jefferson and James Madison 1776-1826 edited by James Morton Smith (W.W. Norton, 3 volumes, 2,073 pp., $150) Perhaps all heroes are conveyed to posterity as singular and solitary beings. In the case of Thomas Jefferson, however, the splendor of his isolation seems an essential aspect of his reputation. Jefferson's ultimate act of solitary creation was, of course, the drafting of the Declaration of Independence in June 1776. Sitting in a Windsor chair with his lap-desk and a quill pen, he wrote the magic words of American history.

Mom Arrested For Letting Child Play Outside
Posted By yihan On September 15, 2012 @ 4:58 am In Featured Stories,Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile,U.S. News | Comments Disabled
Courthouse News Service
Saturday, September 15, 2012
Police falsely arrested a mother for "child endangerment" after a neighbor reported that she had abandoned her children by letting them ride scooters in the street, the mom claims in court.
Tammy Cooper sued her neighbor Shelley Fuller, the city of La Porte Police Department and one unidentified officer, in Federal Court.
La Porte is a city of 33,000 near the Houston Ship Channel in Harris County.
In her complaint, Cooper says she lives on a "quiet, suburban cul de sac" and "often allows her 6- and 9-year-old children to ride their scooters on the street while she watches from a chair in the driveway or through the large windows on the front of her house."
"On the day of her arrest, Cooper's children were playing on their scooters in the cul de sac when her neighbor, defendant Shelley Fuller, called the City of La Porte Police Department to report that Cooper had 'abandoned' her children," the complaint states.
Cooper says she told the responding La Porte policeman that she had been home the whole time.

Several hundred members of Cycle Oregon, a bicycle club, have recently been visiting the Walla Walla Valley. I am sure the business community welcomes this group since it spends a lot of money while passing through.
I am not convinced that the rest of the populace receives it with open arms. Wednesday at noon I was walking west on Melrose Street and observed the passage of about a hundred cyclists. They were headed east and were three and four abreast. None of them was at the far right of the road.
Car traffic and one city bus were held up for minutes. The cyclists seemed oblivious to the fact they were blocking the street. Their actions were rude and inconsiderate.
Cyclists are obliged to obey traffic rules. They should travel single file on the far right side of the road if they are obstructing traffic.
If Cycle Oregon can't abide by the rules of the road, perhaps the mayor and City Council should inform it that they it is welcome here.

Additional product details
The main objectives of this text are:
to inform readers of the historical and current learning theoretical principles, concepts, and research findings, especially as they relate to education, and to
provide applications of the principles and concepts in settings where teaching and learning occur.
The text focuses primary emphasis on cognitive theories that stress learners' constructions of beliefs, skills, strategies, and knowledge. Behavioral views are also discussed. Following an introductory chapter on learning that discusses key learning issues and historical perspectives, the second chapter discusses conditioning theories of learning. The next five chapters discuss cognitive theories and processes of learning: social cognitive theory, cognitive information processing theory, cognitive learning processes, constructivist theory, and cognition and instruction. The next four chapters cover the key topics of development and learning, neuroscience of learning, content-area learning, and motivation. The concluding chapter asks readers to examine their beliefs about learning, fit these with existing theories, and determine how to apply learning principles to improve teaching and learning. Chapters have numerous applications that apply learning principles to real-world settings. By blending theory, research, and applications throughout, the text provides instructors and students with a unified view of learning in educational settings.

The Eco-Atkins Diet: How it Works
Although the Eco Atkins diet improved some health measures, these improvements were not significantly more than those seen other diet plans, experts say.
In the Eco Atkins study, "participants lowered calorie intake by 40%, which is most likely the reason for the weight loss, more than the type of diet," says Jeannie Gazzaniga-Moloo, PhD, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. She adds that the satisfying nature of a diet rich in high-fiber plant proteins probably made it easier for participants to stick to the low-calorie plan for four weeks.
A strict vegan diet like the Eco Atkins diet is one of many strategies to lower cholesterol, although the high fiber level of the diet may have enhanced its cholesterol-lowering effect, experts say.
"Substituting healthy fats for saturated or trans fats, eating fewer fried and high-fat foods, increasing soluble fiber, and getting regular physical activity are all effective means to lowering cholesterol," Mooloo says.
The Eco-Atkins Diet: What the Experts Say
Robert Eckel, MD, a University of Denver professor who is past president of the American Heart Association, says the Eco-Atkins diet is definitely better than the original Atkins Diet -- but both are too restrictive for most people to stick with in the long run. He adds that the Eco Atkins Diet study was too short to provide any data on long-term compliance.
Because both study groups lost the same amount of weight, regardless of whether they were on the lower- or higher-carb diet, Eckel suggests eating more healthy carbs. The U.S. Institute of Medicine recommends that people get 45% to 65% of daily calories from carbohydrates to provide enough energy and fuel for physical activity and good health.
Simply substituting plant proteins for some of the animal proteins in your diet can be just as effective as the Eco-Atkins diet to help lower bloodcholesterol levels, Eckel says.
Mooloo notes that you can lower your cholesterol levels just by losing weight, exercising more, and choosing healthier fats. She believes that a less restrictive approach would work better for most people.
"It concerns me when whole food groups like dairy are eliminated because essential nutrients could be missing from the diet, like calcium and vitamin D, says Mooloo.
Eckel says he recommends the No Fad Diet by the American Heart Association for his patients who are overweight and need to lower cholesterol levels. Mooloo suggests the South Beach Diet or South Beach Supercharged as healthy, sustainable diets for losing weight and lowering cholesterol.

One of my players asked me during our session "can my character (Cleric of Moradin) use Defender on himself?"
If not, why not? Is Defender not quite unbalanced? If he faces one monster, the cleric can simple block the cave passage and dodge, giving him AC 20. The monster would have to roll twice every time to try to hit the cleric because of Defender, which would result in a player doing nothing but dodging to ensure that the other players can take down creatures with ranged attacks. If he can't use Defender on himself, he can simple stand behind the fighter who dodges and thus has AC 19, still forcing the attacker to do two attacks and thus blocking the way while the other players take down the monster. However, if there are lots of monsters, like a dozen goblins, then Defender is practically useless, since it requires that you target a goblin before it attacks, and if that goblin misses then the ability was wasted. We haven't found a solution to this yet though and will keep testing it hoping to find a creative suggestion.

Statement of Purpose:
We believe that America's Judeo-Christian heritage and European identity must be defended. Today, our glorious Western civilization is under assault from many directions. Three such threats will be discussed at this conference. First, the massive influx to the United States and Europe of Third-World immigrants who do not share our fundamental political and cultural values. Second, the threat from Islam, a militant ideology that is hostile to our society and, in principle, committed to destroying it. Third, because of the persistent disappointing performance of blacks (which many whites mistakenly blame on themselves) many whites have guilt feelings that undermine Western morale and deter us from dealing sensibly with the other threats.
