Why do women in Muslim countries not have the same rights as women in the West, such as rights for education and employment?
Gender issues the world over, including the Muslim world need urgent attention. However, the issues faced by women in the Muslim world are of a vastly different nature as compared to issues faced by women in the West.
Firstly it is important to differentiate between the status of women in Islam and the present status of women in the Muslim world. It is also important to appreciate the vast diversity of the Muslim world, with its varying levels of adherence to Islamic injunctions, with regard to the status of Muslim women. In a world-wide population of 1.5 billion Muslims, the status of women varies from culture to culture and often within the same culture. Thus the stereotypical image of the oppressed Muslim woman with limited or no access to education is just that, a stereotype based on gross misinformation.
The bedrock of the Islamic civilization was learning and intellectual striving, and women scholars have been common from the earliest days of Islam.
Limiting women's access to higher education either openly or by tacit discrimination as happens in some countries is a violation of Islamic injunctions. It is true that in some places, parents tend to favor their sons over their daughters. This is in clear violation to the Prophetic tradition .
Social evils such as "honor" killings, domestic violence and the abuse of women exist in Muslim as well as non-Muslim cultures. They are completely anathema to the Islamic concept of adl (justice). To associate these evils with Islam is a grave injustice to the cause of women's empowerment.
To say that women in Muslim countries do not have the same rights as women in the West assumes that the general status of women in the West is worthy of emulation by Muslim women, something that even ardent Western feminists would disagree with strongly. Germaine Greer, the renowned feminist, writes in her book "The Whole Woman" in 1999 referring to her earlier bestseller written thirty years ago:
"When The Female Eunuch was written our daughters were not cutting or starving themselves. On every side speechless women endure endless hardship, grief and pain, in a world system that creates billions of losers for every handful of winners". (p. 3)
It is therefore important to understand that the status of Muslim women need not be viewed through the prism of the aspirations of Western women. The aberrations in the present status of Muslim women are a result of not following the teachings of Islam, rather than conforming to them. Therefore, improving the status of women in the Muslim world requires more and not less adherence to Islamic injunctions .

I am a Mexican woman and I had made the desicion to convert into Islam 2 yrs ago. Ever since i am a strong believer and I know 100 percent that There is Only one God worthy of worship, and that is Allah, al-hamdulillah beacuse he chose me to become a muslim and most imprtant to understand islam. When ever i read topics like this it make me upset how some Arab Muslim men these days are so controling and do keep their wife from working and learning, how does someone deel with such a husband when Allah tells u to obey him, this is a question that i will like it to get answered by any Good strong believing Muslim, brother or sister that has knowledge to answer this question in the proper way.
I would like to know that as well.
Asalm dear sister,1stly look to hadiths sahih,you will see what the prophet of ALLAH.[S,A,W]ADVICE N TEACHED WOMEN…in bukhari n muslims.don't let anyone give their own point of view,am not n wil not advice you as some modern muslims will advise.ISLam Quraan n sunah are 4 life till the end sister. See how many women are having JOB n marriage life perished 1 amoung 100 of examples…Aslm a brother Umar

I will gladly put any information that you have on to this website.
AND Why do Islamic women have no rights to choose her life partner —- husband from Non-Islamic religions and Non-Islamic country?
Jeff Ali
Why Muslim women do cover their face while it's not required doing salat in front of Almighty God. They way the Arab man and woman dress up is nothing to do with Religion. It's is their lack scientific logic. Keep certain dress does not make a follower of Islam but follower of their own liking. Arab is very hot country and has dust storm so people and local culture adopted a dress which suitable in those condition. Cover face so you can protect your eyes, nose, mouth even ears from blowing dust and sand. It was practiced by all people across the religious boundaries. Jesus (peace be upon him) used cover his all body. It protect from sun stroke, skin cancer and keep the sweat within so person don't feel too hot. Religions came to educate the human being so they prosper freely not for confinement. If you are not good human being first it doesn't matter what religion you belong is useless for this world and world after. Always watch yourself in self assessing mirror every night before going to bed. Good luck
Where did you get the info that Muslim women must cover their face? Islam has strongly emphasized the concept of decency and modesty in the interaction between members of the opposite sex. Dress code is part of that overall teaching. There are two verses in the Qur'an in which Almighty Allah talks about the issue of decency and hijab as defined earlier.About the extent of the body to be covered by a woman in the presence of a 'stranger' (any male apart from the mahrim), the schools concur that it is a MUST for her to cover her whole body except the face and hands (up to the wrists) in accordance with the verse 31 of Surat al-Nur:
…And reveal not their adornment save such as is outward; and let them cast their veils over their bosoms (Qur'an 24:31)
considering that 'outward adornment' (al-zeenah) implies the face and hands. The word 'al-khimar' (whose plural 'khumur' occurs in the verse) means the veil which covers the head, not the face, and the word 'al-jayb' (whose plural 'juyub' occurs in the verse) means the chest. The women have been commanded to put a covering on their heads and to lower it over their chests.
And why do think that Muslim women can choose her life partner? Please get your FACTS right. FYI, o & learn about prophet Muhammad and Umm-ul-Mu'mineen. Khad?ja bint Khuwaylid or Khad?ja al-Kubra was the first wife of prophet Muhammad. Khadijah grew up in a wealthy household. She later followed in her father's footsteps, becoming a successful businesswoman in her own right. In addition to her business savvy, Khadijah was known to have good character, often feeding and clothing the poor and assisting her relatives in need. These deeds earned her the title Al-Tahira. Before marrying the Prophet Muhammad, Khadijah was widowed twice. She decided that she would not marry again and would just focus on her children from those two marriages. However, after she hired the Prophet Muhammad to take her trading caravans to Syria, she revisited the idea of marriage. She was impressed by his character and his honesty in dealing with her business. Khadijah's friend, Nafisa, APPROACHED the Prophet and asked if he would accept Khadijah's proposal (hand in marriage). He said he would. She was 40 years old and he was 25.They were married for 25 years, during which the Prophet was monogamous. Khadijah and the Prophet had 6 children together and Rasulullahsallallahualaihiwassalam remained devoted to his only wife for 25 years. When his Khadija passed away,he married with another widow who was 65 years old and he was at his 50.This year was called the year of sadness because it was a big loss for the Prophet Muhammad. Throughout the rest of his life, the Prophet Muhammad would remember Khadijah often, so much so that Ayesha said that she was never as jealous of another woman as she was of Khadijah. Once Ayesha asked the Prophet about his love for Khadijah and his response was, "She believed in me when no one else did; she accepted Islam when people rejected me; and she helped and comforted me when there was no one else to lend me a helping hand."
Have you heard of Khadijah?
Ok! How many muslim women are known in world for having POWER, MONEY or their contribution in Scientific Invention and Discovery? Yes I have been hearing the name of MALALA for last 2-3 years only
No, honor killing does not exist in my culture. At all.
Why do you cover your head? Are you allowed to go on the street like any other women in a free world with out fear of been punish for not covering your head when you go out?

I think a lot of his innuendos regarding events on the Devils are pretty much crap. End of the day it's on Lou. So a lot is just damage control and softening of his past mistakes to make the Leafs a more attractive destination IF any of his policies drove players away.
There is no doubt in my mind Zach Parise's leaving had very little to do with money - and I dont see Lou allowing himself to be hi-jacked to THAT degree - Suter or some other buddy would have to have been in the deal too I'm sure just to soften the Langenbrunner fiasco as distant as that may seem to everyone now. Fact is - over-paying for "character" players hamstrung the team a lot IMO.
I think the chatter about the Devils encouraging players to play hurt is upsetting to Lou. I might be misinterpreting a little but still. As if he couldn't pay a better medical staff? As if he couldn't make that a priority for some reason? Like ownership was saying "Hell no - put that injured guy out there - his absence will hinder the bottom line!" I think it just never really occurred to him how to fix the problem.
I wish that the Devils had been able to mediate a wedding of old knowledge with new. I get that it's not worth the effort with so much to do. I just think it could have been handled with a lot more integrity and confidence. I have to say - I am impressed with Shannahan's confidence. Although we all know what they say about confidence. It's that feel you get before you fully understand the situation.

I have the following hierarchy:
- AgentConfig has relation ManyToOne with AgentTask.
- AgentTask has DiscriminatorColumn & DiscriminatorMap assigned to it.
- AgentTask has relation ManyToOne with AgentTaskConfig.
I believe the problem is because of the following:
UnitOfWork#doMerge has the tries to get properties the following way:
// Merge state of $entity into existing (managed) entity
foreach ($class->reflClass->getProperties() as $prop) {
This obviously doesn't get the parent class (AgentTask) properties.
Later on UnitOfWork fails on line:
because $prevManagedCopy doesn't have properties set from entity.
My proposal is to get the properties the following way:
$properties = $class->reflClass->getProperties(); $parent = $class->reflClass; while (($parent = $parent->getParentClass()) != null) { $properties = array_merge($parent->getProperties(), $properties); } // Merge state of $entity into existing (managed) entity foreach ($properties as $prop) {
Issue Links
- depends on
DDC-3524 [GH-1272] [DDC-2704] - merge inherited transient properties - merge properties into uninitialized proxies
- Resolved
I have this problem as well in .
The Merge operation does not copy properties of any parent class to the managed copy. My workaround when merging entities with inheritance is:
1. Receive detached entity that is instance of a subclass.
2. fetch a managed copy of the entity from database with id of detached entity.
3. manually set properties on the managed entity.
4. flush to save changes.
This is obviously only manageable with a relatively simple datastructure, and quickly becomes very messy with more complex entities and relationship hierarchies.
Would really appreciate a fix for this
A temporary workaround is to change properties into protected. I'll mark this for 2.5 and see if it can be fixed by then.

Hello - it's me again - the WD40 guy.
Another question -
I just recently purchased a 2002 Specialized Expedition Sport with Insync Exceed 266 front shocks. (My first new bike since my Huffy Santa Fe 10 Speed )
If you're sitting on the bike, there is an adjustable knob on the top of the left fork. This adjusts the stiffness of the ride.
I would like to stiffen up the ride a bit because so far I have only done street riding and I find that on my downpedal, I'm loosing alittle by the fact that my shocks are compressing.
How many times should I have to turn this knob? I tried turning it about 10 times clockwise but it did not seem to do anything to the stiffness of the shocks. I tested by pushing down on the shocks from the handlebars.
Any ideas?

Holiday Homeade Frames????
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent!!
There are so many things you can do with frames.... you could paint the frame itself or leave it , then cover the mat with a nice fabric....you could paint the frame with different fun designs- polka dotting is super easy with the eraser of a pencil dipped in paint.... you could decoupage the frame with whatever- pictures, fabric, etc., you could glue buttons, ribbon, dried/artificial flowers around the frame..... you could antique it with crackle finish, you could find those cutouts (metal or wood) and glue them on to a painted frame (family, love, sisters, etc....) Is that kind of what you were thinking of- if not, just disregard it all..... :) I've seen on more than one craft show where they glued fabric to the mat of a frame to make it "trendy"- it doesn't have to look cheesy.... same with the dried flowers, etc, it's all in the presentation.... Craft stores have a lot of unfinished frames- some flat front, some not, but you could also recycle old frames of your own, or get cheap cheap from thrift stores... Good luck! Kathryn

December 1, 2015
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee isn't griping about the fact it will have to begin NCAA tournament play a little earlier than it expected.
The Volunteers are simply relieved to be in the field at all.
As one of the last teams to receive an at-large bid, Tennessee (21-12) faces Iowa (20-12) on Wednesday in the First Four at Dayton, Ohio. The winner meets No. 6 seed Massachusetts (24-8) on Friday in Midwest Regional action at Raleigh, N.C.
The Vols hoped their late-season surge would keep them out of the First Four, but they like this scenario better than a third straight trip to the NIT. Each of the last two years, Tennessee was optimistic about getting an NCAA bid on the day selections were announced, only to end up disappointed.

Single seahorse dad mourns loss of wife
A single father of two is having to come to terms with the fact that there will be no more romance in his life after he and his partner were separated earlier.
The gent in question, a Knysna seahorse, was removed from the Garden Route town's lagoon earlier this year by a concerned member of the public who found him floating, exhausted and barely able to swim.
The seahorse was taken to a National Parks (SANParks) aquarium, where he recovered well and where, less than a month later, he gave birth to a brood of babies.
Male seahorses have incubation pouches and give birth.
Two of the seahorse's brood flourished and are nearly fully grown - but, says Francois Joubert of Garden Route Aquariums, it's likely the small steed will not have any more young.
That's because seahorses mate for life, and the seahorse's female partner was left behind in the lagoon.
"In this light, we ask that people not make too hasty a judgement if they come across creatures who appear to be struggling in the wild," Joubert said.
"Our actions, although well intentioned, may have drastic negative implications in the long run. If any animal clearly is in trouble the appropriate authorities should be consulted before intervening."
The Knysna seahorse, or Hippocampus capensis, is one of 30 species of seahorses found worldwide, Joubert said.
This seahorse is endemic to the Knysna region and can only be found from Keurbooms River in Plettenberg Bay throughout the Knysna lagoon and up to Swartvlei in Sedgefield.

Hi, I read that the difference between the 603 Touch and Sew and the 603E is that the 603E can do chain stitching and the 603 can't, but have also seen posts stating the 603 can chainstitch, so figured I'd ask the experts. :-) I have a 603 coming to live with me soon and was wondering about this. I have the chain stitching attachments (got them in a box of goodies) so am hoping to use them. TIA
------Singer 9960, 221K - black and white/green, 15-30 treadle, 201-2, 15-90, Babylock Spirit, Babylock Crescendo, Brother 1034D serger, Brother 2340cv coverstitch, Kenmore 86,
My vote, is it will work for you. As long as you got the right chain stitch plate, and bobbin case cover, and little thread guide. I think the difference is just how the bobbin gets wound. With a flippy lock under the stitch plate v.s. a control on the machine bed in front of side pillar. Can't see how that would make any difference in actual Chain stitching though. But, since the bobbins are all the same, a bobbin case cover that fits in one, would fit in the other one too,
Thank you! I have the machine now and do have the three chain stitch pieces so I am hoping to try it out tonight or tomorrow. :-)
Well the 603 does gorgeous deco stitches. I had a 401 that used the same black cams and never was satisfied with the stitches (I know I'm weird but I have never met a 401 I could bond with) but they are just lovely on this machine. As for the chainstitching, yes it will work, but I'm having some trouble with it. I can do a beautiful chainstitch for about 6 inches or so if I go slow, but then I will get a big thread jam and a huge mess of stitches under the plate. After trying various tensions, needles, and thread, I think it may be the needle plate. I don't have another to compare it to, but going by the pics I could find online, I think the little swinging bar under the plate may be slightly bent. From the pictures It looks like the bar and the flat bar underneath it run straight together but the top bar on mine ( the thicker one) has a bit of a curve to it. Going to put it aside for now, until I get another needle plate to try, in case that is the problem. Am still loving this machine for its lovely stitches though so its definitely a keeper. :-)
I have a Singer 611 that I use for chainstitch basting, just not recently. I got a manual for it from T&Trepair. Take a look at their site, it might help. http://www.tandtrepair.com/
I actually do have the printed chainstitch instructons already (but thank you for kindly posting that sight), and I have set everything up as instructed. It will sew a chain stitch but then suddenly get nested after a few inches. It sews beautifully otherwise. :-)
It was the needle plate after all. Ordered a new one and could see right away the little bar underneath was in much better shape. Set everything up for chainstitch and it worked just fine. Yay!

There is no doubt the next wave of cyberattacks will be more sophisticated, more difficult to detect and more capable of wreaking untold damage on the nation's computer systems.
With that in mind, the Department of Defense (DoD) gave a $3 million grant to a team of computer scientists from the University of Utah and University of California, Irvine, to develop software that can hunt down a kind of vulnerability that is nearly impossible to find with today's technology.
Attacks like Dragonfly Show New Security Model Needed
Learning to Navigate OT Security Risks
Finding a Balance: Managing OT Cyber Risk
Employee Training Boosts Security
The team is creating an analyzer that can thwart algorithmic attacks that target the set of rules or calculations that a computer must follow to solve a problem. Algorithmic attacks are so new and sophisticated that only hackers hired by nation states are likely to have the resources necessary to mount them, but perhaps not for long.
"The military is looking ahead at what's coming in terms of cybersecurity and it looks like they're going to be algorithmic attacks," said Matt Might, associate professor of computer science at the University of Utah and a co-leader on the team.
"Right now, the doors to the house are unlocked so there's no point getting a ladder and scaling up to an unlocked window on the roof," Might said of the current state of computer security. "But once all the doors get locked on the ground level, attackers are going to start buying ladders. That's what this next generation of vulnerabilities is all about."
Typically, software vulnerabilities today rely on programmers making mistakes while creating their programs and hackers will exploit those mistakes. For example, the software will receive a programming input crafted by a hacker and use it without automatically validating it first. That could result in a vulnerability giving the hacker access to the computer or causing it to leak information.
Algorithmic attacks don't need to find such conventional vulnerabilities. They can, for instance, secretly monitor how an algorithm is running or track how much energy a computer is using and use that information to glean secret data that the computer is processing. Algorithmic attacks can also disable a computer by forcing it to use too much memory or driving its central processing unit to overwork.
"These algorithmic attacks are particularly devious because they exploit weaknesses in how resources like time and space are used in the algorithm," said Suresh Venkatasubramanian, associate professor of computer science and co-leader on the team.
Most hackers currently are not using algorithmic attacks because they are costly, extremely complex, and take the most amount of time. So attackers take the easier route of exploiting current vulnerabilities.
The team will be developing software that can perform an audit of computer programs to detect algorithmic vulnerabilities or "hot spots" in the code. This analyzer will perform a mathematical simulation of the software to predict what will happen in the event of an attack.
"Think of it as a spellcheck but for cybersecurity," Might said.

There is a new tool in development that helps anyone determine whether a Twitter account is under the operation of a human or an automated software application known as a social bot.
BotOrNot analyzes over 1,000 features from a user's friendship network, their Twitter content and temporal information, all in real time.
How to Detect an Oil, Ice Sandwich
Thin Nanowires Mean Foldable Tablets
Solving Thin Film Solar Cell Mystery
From Copper to Solar Cells
It then calculates the likelihood that the account may or may not be a bot.
The new analysis tool stems from research at the Indiana University Bloomington School of Informatics and Computing funded by the U.S. Department of Defense to counter technology-based misinformation and deception campaigns.
The National Science Foundation and the U.S. military are funding the research after recognizing that increased information flow — blogs, social networking sites, media-sharing technology — along with an accelerated proliferation of mobile technology is changing the way communication and possibly misinformation campaigns end up conducted.
As network science ends up applied to the task of uncovering deception, it leverages the structure of social and information diffusion networks, along with linguistic cues, temporal patterns and sentiment data mined from content spreading through social media. Each of these feature classes ends up analyzed with BotOrNot.
"We have applied a statistical learning framework to analyze Twitter data, but the 'secret sauce' is in the set of more than one thousand predictive features able to discriminate between human users and social bots, based on content and timing of their tweets, and the structure of their networks," said Alessandro Flammini, an associate professor of informatics and principal investigator on the project. "The demo that we've made available illustrates some of these features and how they contribute to the overall 'bot or not' score of a Twitter account."
Through use of these features and examples of Twitter bots provided by Texas A&M University professor James Caverlee's infolab, the researchers are able to train statistical models to discriminate between social bots and humans. Flammini said the system is quite accurate. Using an evaluation measure called AUROC, BotOrNot is scoring 0.95 with 1.0 being perfect accuracy.
"Part of the motivation of our research is that we don't really know how bad the problem is in quantitative terms," said Fil Menczer, the informatics and computer science professor who directs IU's Center for Complex Networks and Systems Research, where the new work is ongoing as part of the information diffusion research project called Truthy.
"Are there thousands of social bots? Millions? We know there are lots of bots out there, and many are totally benign," Menczer said. "But we also found examples of nasty bots used to mislead, exploit and manipulate discourse with rumors, spam, malware, misinformation, political astroturf and slander."
Flammini and Menczer believe these kinds of social bots could be dangerous for democracy, cause panic during an emergency, affect the stock market, facilitate cybercrime and hinder advancement of public policy. The goal is to support human efforts to counter misinformation with truthful information.

Outside cyber attacks gain the most publicity, but internal incidents are just as worrisome, just ask the Defense Department (DoD).
What concerns DoD officials the most is careless or poorly trained insiders as a source of threats, one survey found, according to a survey by SolarWinds, an IT management software provider.
Smart Grid; Vulnerable Grid
NIST Seeks Smart Grid Comments
Cyber Security Framework Released
NIST to Update Role-Based Security Training
In the survey, which addressed cyber security threats and preparedness across the federal government, 41 percent of DoD respondents named insider data leakage/theft as a threat, not far below the 48 percent who identified external hacking.
And although those responses may have come with the disclosures of Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning in mind, it seems inept co-workers, rather than intentional leakers, are the biggest concern.
Fifty-three percent of DoD respondents cited careless/untrained insiders as a source of security threats, more than foreign governments (48 percent), terrorists (31 percent) or the general hacking community (35 percent). Malicious insiders were at 26 percent of respondents.
SolarWinds conducted the online survey earlier this year of 200 IT and IT security professionals in the federal government, 40 percent of whom worked in the military. The results showed similarities in the concerns of civilian and military agencies, as well as some notable differences.
Overall, the respondents were pretty confident in their IT defenses, with 94 percent rating their cyber security readiness as good or excellent (though more good, at 50 percent, than excellent, at 44 percent).
External hacking was the most common threat in the overall survey, with 50 percent of the respondents naming it, followed by malware (46 percent), social engineering (37 percent) and spam (36 percent), with similar results coming from civilian and Defense agencies.
Differences cropped up in a few areas, though. Only 21 percent of civilian respondents cited insider data leakage/theft as a threat, compared with DoD's 41 percent. And twice as many civilian respondents (25 percent to 12 percent) named mobile device theft as a threat, perhaps reflecting the fact that DoD has to date eschewed the bring your own device trend. DoD respondents showed more concerned than their civilian counterparts about physical security attacks, 25 percent to 13 percent.

Seventeen Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) graduate students earned cyber security scholarships from the National Science Foundation, the Department of Homeland Security's CyberCorps Scholarship for Service (SFS) Program and the Department of Defense's Information Assurance Scholarship Program (IASP).
The SFS awards went to nine students in CMU's Information Networking Institute (INI) and six students at CMU's Heinz College. The IASP awards went to two INI students.
Grant to Boost Wireless Security
DoE Awards to Boost Security Tools
Petrobras Moves to Hike Security
NIST Grants to Improve Security, Privacy
Both programs share a common goal and that is to increase and strengthen the amount of federal information assurance professionals that protect the nation's critical infrastructures and national defense.
"As future federal employees, the SFS and IASP scholars delve into challenging engineering and information assurance coursework and engage in interdisciplinary cyber security research. In addition to the emphasis on the technologies and strategies related to cyber defense and cyber offense, CMU's cyber security curricula explore risk management, economics and policy issues related to reducing vulnerability and securing our national information infrastructure," said Dena Haritos Tsamitis, INI director and director of education, training and outreach for CyLab. She is also the principal investigator of the grants.
Increased global cyber attacks make the training and retention of cyber security experts a priority of the U.S. government. The National Security Agency (NSA) and the United States Cyber Command designated Carnegie Mellon as a National Center of Academic Excellence (CAE) in cyber operations for 2013-2018. The National Security Agency designated the university as a CAE in Information Assurance Education and a CAE in research.
More than 160 students in the SFS program have graduated from CMU in the past decade. One student in the IASP graduated from the INI in 2012.
Both programs provide full-tuition scholarships and stipends to scholars in exchange for working for the federal government after graduation.

A policy through which federal departments offered prosecutorial immunity to companies that helped the U.S. military monitor Internet traffic on private networks of defense contractors expanded by Executive Order to include other critical infrastructure industries, according to the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC).
EPIC said the pilot-version of the program run with the Departments of Justice (DoJ), Defense (DoD), and Homeland Security (DHS) came to light in June 2011 after The Washington Post published a report detailing the implementation of a new program by National Security Administration that let them monitor traffic flowing from some defense contractors through certain Internet service providers. At the time, The Washington Post quoted Deputy Defense Secretary William J. Lynn III saying the program was to help thwart attacks against defense firms and the government hoped to expand the program moving forward.
Web Access Means More Attacks
Phishers Hide Real Links with Javascript
APT Attacks Shut Down
Cyber Attack Against S. Korea
The documents obtained in the a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, EPIC said, reveal the DoD advised private industry organizations on the ways in which they circumvent federal wiretap laws in order to aid the DoD and DHS in their surveillance of private Internet networks belonging to defense contractors.
EPIC, digital rights group the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and others fear the program's expansion would apply to the broad swath of organizations that potentially fall under the vague category of critical infrastructure.
The government has not yet named the program, but EPIC said the NSA has partnered with AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink in order to keep tabs on the Internet traffic flowing into and out of some 15 defense contractors, including Lockheed Martin, CSC, SAIC, and Northrop Grumman.
For its part, the NSA said it is not directly monitoring these networks, but is rather filtering their traffic in order to detect the presence of suspicious packets based on a number of malicious code signatures the agency has developed.
EPIC issued a FOIA request in July 2011 requesting the following information: "All contracts and communications with Lockheed Martin, CSC, SAIC, Northrop Grumman, or any other defense contractors regarding the new NSA pilot program; All contracts and communications with AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink or any other ISPs regarding the new NSA pilot program; All analyses, legal memoranda, and related records regarding the new NSA pilot program; Any memoranda of understanding between NSA and DHS or any other government agencies or corporations regarding the new NSA pilot program; Any Privacy Impact Assessment performed as part of the development of the new NSA pilot program."
The government failed to provide any of this information. So, EPIC filed a FOIA lawsuit on March 1, 2012 and eventually gained access to thousands of pages of previously unreleased documents, which they have posted on their website.

Cyber threats are real and abundant and the government is keenly aware it needs to lock in security policies and procedures.
Just look at what is going on. The Senate keeps pushing for legislation to improve information-sharing on threats and attacks. President Barack Obama is looking to issue an executive order on cyber security and the Department of Defense (DoD) is looking for a massive increase in the number of trained cyber security professionals to defend the country's private and public networks.

Ensuring Software Security Policies
Security professionals working on these assignments right now is difficult to narrow down as quite a few work in agencies that don't discuss their operations. Also, some work in dual-tasked positions and don't focus on just one assignment. However, officials from the Department of Defense have been pushing for more funding to hire more trained security professionals.
Now, that push seems to be paying dividends. The Pentagon's goal is to increase the number of security professionals from fewer than 1,000 to 5,000 in the next few years. Those personnel will comprise military and civilian security professionals, and the goal will be to defend the country's critical infrastructure as well as government and military networks.
This all comes just a few days after Janet Napolitano, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, warned a nation-level incident of the scale of 9/11 could occur sometime soon as a result of a cyber attack. Napolitano is not the first to warn about the possibility of such an attack, but is rather the latest in a long line of government officials, presidential advisers and security experts to raise that specter. Security researchers also have warned in recent years about serious vulnerabilities in the SCADA and ICS systems that run much of the network infrastructure in utilities, financial systems and other critical areas.
In October, DHS officials warned SCADA system operators about an increase in the level of malicious activity targeting those systems.
"Asset owners should not assume that their control systems are secure or that they are not operating with an Internet accessible configuration. Instead, asset owners should thoroughly audit their networks for Internet facing devices, weak authentication methods, and component vulnerabilities," the alert said.
The new plan from the Pentagon contemplates the creation of several separate groups of cyber security personnel, each with a different set of responsibilities. One group will defend networks used by critical infrastructure entities like utilities. Another team will be responsible for defensive and offensive military operations in cyberspace, and the third group will work on fortifying the DoD's networks.
All of the groups will report up to the U.S. Cyber Command, a relatively new arm of the military headed by Gen. Keith Alexander, the director of the National Security Agency.

U.S. power grids and other civilian infrastructure are not prepared for electromagnetic pulses (EMP) that could result from weapons or violent space weather, according to a congressional subcommittee hearing last week.
There are serious flaws in the nation's infrastructure that could allow for EMP events to shut down power and communications for extended periods of time, said panelists at the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Infrastructure Protection and Security Technologies, headed by Chairman Dan Lungren R-CA.

"Our civilian grid, which the Defense Department relies upon for 99 percent of its electricity needs, is vulnerable to these kinds of dangers," Rep. Trent Franks, R-AZ, testified during the hearing. Franks, one of the leaders of the Congressional EMP Caucus, sponsored legislation in 2011 to protect U.S. infrastructure in the event of an attack by an EMP weapon.
Michael Aimone, a director of business enterprise integration at Defense, said the Pentagon had pursued a "two-track approach" to mitigate the impact an EMP attack could have on Defense facilities. He said his plan relied on in-house capabilities to maintain power and electronics and a means to communicate and coordinate with outside partners.
"DoD recently adopted an explicit mission assurance strategy, which is focused on ensuring operational continuity in an all-hazard threat environment," Aimone said.
EMP disruptions and attacks can come from different types of events, including high-altitude or low-altitude nuclear weapons detonations, locally based radio frequency weapons, and solar weather. One of the largest impacts from an EMP-based disruption was in Quebec in 1989, when nearly 6 million people lost power because of a geomagnetic storm.
Brandon Wales, of the Homeland Security Department's National Protection and Programs Directorate, said DHS was working with federal agencies on contingency plans for an EMP event. He said Federal Emergency Management Agency was establishing lines of communication with key agencies in case an EMP event occurs, and that Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano had commissioned a report in 2011 to study the impact of space-based EMP attacks.
"DHS has pursued a deeper understanding of the EMP threat, as well as its potential impacts, effective mitigation strategies, and a greater level of public awareness and readiness in cooperation with other federal agencies and private equipment and system owners and operators through various communications channels," Wales said.
Common standards for power grid equipment are a major issue, said Joseph McClelland, director of the Office of Electric Reliability at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. He said current standards to protect infrastructure and equipment do not address the many levels within the power grid and should undergo an update.
"Protecting the electric generation, transmission and distribution systems from severe damage due to an EMP-related event would involve vulnerability assessments at every level of electric infrastructure," McClelland said.

Cyber security is the top issue keeping federal agency CIOs up at night, followed by controlling costs and managing human capital, according a new survey.
Forty CIOs and other federal IT leaders, from agencies including the Department of Defense, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs ended up interviewed by TechAmerica, a tech industry group. Twenty percent identified cyber security as their top concern, followed by 15% who pointed to controlling costs, and 12% human capital.

While most of security resources direct toward outside threats, internal threats are a growing concern, respondents said. At the same time, TechAmerica said outside threats are on the rise and becoming more sophisticated.
One CIO said IT security is inconsistent in federal government and quality is "all over the place." A consequence of such concerns is agencies are unwilling to embrace federal IT goals for centralization and mobility, according to the report. There would be less concern if there was a consistent, high-quality security framework applied across government.
Survey respondents recommended agencies identify which department "owns" security; that they plan ahead and build infrastructure with security in mind; and the government develop sound metrics for security monitoring.
Cost control was the second most-mentioned concern of federal CIOs, a reflection of flat IT budgets over the past three years. Some said budget discipline drove changes such as dropping unused software licenses and adopting thin-client hardware. However, across-the-board budget cuts were the "most feasible and least effective way" to control costs.

News that the Red Sox are talking with Bobby Valentine appears to mean one of two things for the flailing Bostons, who now are the only major-league team without a manager:
1. There is a total lack of direction and the Red Sox don't even know what they want anymore.
2. Ownership has seized the steering wheel from rookie general manager Ben Cherington and now is controlling the process.
Either scenario is not good, a far cry from the well-oiled machine that won the World Series in 2004 and 2007.
The first scenario is evidenced by the dramatic contrast between Valentine and the initial group of candidates they interviewed: Dale Sveum, who was named Cubs manager Friday, Sandy Alomar Jr., Gene Lamont, Pete Mackanin and Torey Lovullo. Of that group, only Lamont has prior major-league managerial experience (Mackanin was the Pirates' interim manager in 2005 and the Reds' interim pilot in 2007). All of those guys veer toward the quiet and unassuming and, to an extent, could be controlled by management. Valentine is brash, has years of experience and is his own man.
The second scenario is evidenced by the fact that Sveum veered in the Cubs' direction in short order following a lunch with Red Sox ownership on Wednesday. He was the only candidate brought back for a second interview. Clearly things did not click between Sveum and Boston's ownership. What we don't know is whether Sveum told Boston the Cubs were his first choice or whether Red Sox ownership pulled the plug on him.
Either way, it speaks volumes.
Obviously, Cherington did not think experience was a necessity when this process started. Valentine was on the shelf, available, when Terry Francona was let go. If the Red Sox were that interested in Valentine, they could have had him in place weeks ago. Why waste time first-dating all those first-timers?
Unless ... they arrived at Valentine once ownership lost confidence in Cherington.
Now there are more questions than answers:
-- Has aggressive president Larry Lucchino been turned loose by co-owners John Henry and Tom Werner to do his thing after being kept away from baseball operations during Theo Epstein's last few years in Boston?
-- By hiring Sveum, did Theo and Co. sting the Red Sox enough that Lucchino and Co. looking to one-up the Cubs with a splashy hire?
-- With his outsized personality, how much fun would Valentine be managing the Red Sox mixing with the outsized egos of ownership, the outsized coverage of the local media and the outsized noise from the New England fans?
-- How does Cherington regain his balance after his legs were cut out from under him this week and command authority going forward? Is it even possible?
At this rate, the Red Sox may take until Valentine's Day to have a manager in place. Or maybe (Bobby) Valentine's Day will come early to Boston.

Red Sox look directionless in talking Bobby V
I agree that Scott Miller is clueless, I still can't believe that anyone pays him for the tripe he comes out with. Don't know why everyone is in SUCH a hurry to have the Red Sox find their man. Chill folks, it's not just a sound bite for Red Sox Nation, we will wait until a good man comes out of the process. The great job Tito did deserves more recognition by everyone, including NewEnglandPride.

Red Sox look directionless in talking Bobby V
Ben Cherington is not qualifed to be the next GM of the Red Sox. The Red Sox are under intense scrutiny after several years of infamy/ineptitude/incompetence/clue
The Red Sox needed to hire someone with presence and a history of some success. The Red Sox should have gone after Billy Beane. Beane must be tired of cutting salary every year while running the Athletics. I bet he would do wonders if he ran a team with a payroll of at least $130-180 million.
It is ironic that the situation in Boston mirrors the situation in Oakland in that both Billy Beane and the Red Sox owners thought they were the brains behind their teams and did not take kindly to underlings hogging the spotlight. Beane got rid of established managers and hired his best man at his wedding to run the A's. Bob Geren has been clueless as a major league manager from day one. But he does not hog the spotlight and he does what Beane/upper management tells him to do. Similarly, John Henry and Tom Werner are two very outspoken owners and much bas been written about how much they felt slighted when Theo Epstein received most or all of the credit for Boston's two recent WS titles. They wanted to show the world that anyone can run the Red Sox (because the owners are so great) and so they chose Cherington to run the club.
Jon Daniels of the Rangers is the youngest GM in baseball. He was hired at 28 years old. It took him five years to find a clue and put together a championship-caliber (not championship-winning because his Rangers got pawned in the world Series for two years straight).
Theo Epstein is so great that he could have chosen Ken Macha to manage the Cubs and that would have turned out well. I'm kidding of course. But to say that Terry Francona is a great manager simply because he led the Red Sox to two WS titles is oversimplifying the situation. That is....the Red Sox and Yankees are filled with top-money players who usually do well...(except for AJ Burnett). If Francona managed a team with a lesser collection of high level talent I seriously doubt he would be viewed with such strong admiration and affirmation.
If Francona is such a great manager then why didn't he do a better job managing the team in the playoffs? You cannot have some of your players running out of control playing video games, drinking beer and smoking dope while the rest of the team is hard at work trying to win ballgames.

Red Sox look directionless in talking Bobby V
Sorry, Sawx Nation, but there doesn't seem to a really viable managerial candidate out there that is a fit for this mess. It would appear that ownership would rather have a puppet (anyone but Valentine) rather than a maverick (ummm...Valentine). Between the front office implosion and the September meltdown, this organization is in disarray (and I'm a Reds fan, so I know of disarray). What you need to do is throw every dollar you have at Joe Maddon - he'll be out of Tampa's price range soon and he's proven that he can manage, and succeed, in the AL East.

Red Sox look directionless in talking Bobby V
I've been for hiring Bobby Valentine since his name was first brought up.
First off if the Red Sox players didn't listen to Terry Francona who won the Red Sox 2 championships, they're sure not gonna listen to the "new guy" who doesn't have even 1 year of full managerial experience. So a guy like Dave Martinez is not the answer, they'd just do as they pleased and acted like he didn't exist. And a guy like Dave Martinez isn't gonna rock the boat because he doesn't wanna risk his new job. So pretty much any new manager without any true experience is gonna have a limited effect on the team.
You need a guy like Bobby Valentine in the clubhouse. A guy who wouldn't be afraid to bench an entire team if need be. A guy who would make it known that they either act like a team or their riding the bench and risking losing a lot of money on their next contract. And any player who has Scott Boras as his agent is gonna care about how much his next contract will be worth. It doesn't matter if they already get 25 million a year, they are still thinking about how much they're going to get the next time around. And those guys benching them and cutting into their possible future earnings will help motivate them into being a team player.
Save a guy like Dave Martinez for when the Red Sox players egos are in check. Or maybe a stud manager might be available by then instead. It's just pointless to put "fresh meat" into a pack of hungry wolves and tell that person to train them.

Miller you have no idea where who or what is going to come Bostons way i only know it will not be Tito thank god and when they do make there decision i hope it's not long term we had and still have enough long term problems.

Two teenagers have been arrested in connection with the death of a delivery driver in Fort Myers.
Eddie Leonard, 16, and Dejeron Stewart, 17, have been charged with homicide during the commission of a felony.
Zhi Wei Huang, 23, was gunned down Thursday night at Westchase apartments after delivering food from his family's restaurant, Tung Hing on Fowler Street.
Authorities say Leonard lives at the address where the food was delivered, and according to a police report, Leonard and Stewart planned the robbery earlier in the day and ultimately carried-out the plan.
Chief Doug Baker commends the police work involved in the case. This is a tragedy. From what weve gathered the victim was a hard-working young man and helping his parents earn a living. Its also tragic to hold two juveniles accountable for such a careless, senseless act. Im satisfied in giving the victims family some closure and Im looking forward to the justice system holding the boys accountable as well.
Leonard and Stewart were arrested without incident and transported to the Lee County Juvenile Assessment Center.
