STANFORD, Calif. – Stanford rallied from an early deficit to earn a 1-1 double-overtime draw against Portland in a home women's soccer opener on Saturday, but the result provided little contentment among the Cardinal.
Haley Rosen scored during a scramble in front of the net in the 67th minute for No. 2 Stanford against No. 16 Portland before 1,813 at Laird Q. Cagan Stadium on Saturday night. The Cardinal improved to 2-0-1 and extended its home unbeaten streak to 68, the third-longest in NCAA Division I women's soccer history.
Afterward, the evaluation was mixed. Stanford played a sluggish first half, with only one shot in the first 30 minutes. But in the second half, Stanford had 16 shots and had several outstanding scoring chances, ultimately converting only one. The Cardinal would end up with a 23-13 shooting advantage, and the edge on exciting, hard-nosed soccer. But those early minutes could not be erased.
No. 16 Portland (2-0-1) took the lead in the 11th minute, on a 10-yard shot from Emily Sippel on a cross from Ellen Parker on the right. The shot came in the run of play, with Portland playing excelling in a Stanford-style possession game.
Though Rosen scored her first goal of the season on a sequence that began with Courtney Verloo's corner kick, the result and postgame mood were decidedly dreary.
"We are not happy with how we started," said Hannah Farr, who gave the Cardinal a spark off the bench in the midfield. "We can't give teams hope."
Throughout the match, Stanford coach Paul Ratcliffe tinkered with the lineup, moving players in and out, and into different positions. He used 19 players, including six freshmen. Eighteen of those played at least 15 minutes.
The Cardinal needed energy and the match began to turn when freshman Ryan Walker-Hartshorn, who started at outside back in the season opener, was placed into the forward line. The dynamics began to change, and continued to evolve with the no-nonsense play of Farr, and later with senior Natalie Griffen at outside back.
With nine newcomers and after losing eight seniors, Stanford should continue to evolve as Ratcliffe probes for the right chemistry and combinations.
"It's early in the season," said Haley, who came off the bench and played 63 minutes. "We're still finding a rhythym and we're going to keep on working and improving. As those relationships develop, we'll start to come together."
Senior goalkeeper Emily Oliver prevented Stanford from falling even deeper into a hole when she dived to her left to punch away a first-half shot. In the second half, freshman Jane Campbell, making her first collegiate performance, made an instinctual save on a hard shot to the near post.
Griffen sent Portland goalkeeper Erin Dees to the ground with a long-distance shot and Alex Doll and Sydney Payne were among those with chances later in the match.
"We eventually played pretty well and dominated," Farr said. "But we have to start faster and finish our chances."
Stanford hopes to maintain that newfound intensity when it continues nonconference play with home matches on Friday at 6 p.m. against Loyola Marymount and Sunday, Sept. 8 at noon, against Maryland.

June 30, 2006
Instead of raising the price over that charged by its most recent competitors, Tibotec instead virtually matched the price of the lowest priced recent new drug, Reyataz. Prezista seems clearly superior to both Aptivus and Fuzeon, which are priced much higher, so this was exactly the kind of bold move sought by the community.
Before the announcement of the price, Project Inform urged its readers (in PI Perspective #41) to write to the president of Tibotec, supporting the demands of the Fair Pricing Coalition. Now that the company has responded positively, it's appropriate and necessary that the community support what the company has done.
It is isn't often that Project Inform or other advocacy organizations call for support of drug company, but we must be fair. When they act in a socially responsible manner by responding to community needs, we need to reinforce that behavior. The best way to do that is to write a short, personal note of thanks to the company's president:
Mr. Glenn R. Mattes
President, Tibotec Therapeutics
430 Route 22 East
Bridgewater, NJ 08807-0914
The letter should be brief and to the point. Let him know that you appreciate his sensitivity to our concerns about the ever-rising prices of pharmaceutical drugs. Feel free to stress that the price should be lower still, but you're at least glad that the company resisted the temptation to leapfrog the prices of other recent drugs.
It may feel a little awkward saying "thank you" to a drug company, but we need to remember that they are the ones most responsible for the many new drugs since 1996 that have so greatly improved the lives of people with HIV. A little "thank you" will make it more likely that the next new drug will also be priced more fairly. By doing this, your letter can help make a real difference! While you're at it, send a copy to Project Inform and we'll try to keep track of how many letters are sent.

Craig Lossing
As a woodturner, Craig Lossing works to maintain and enhance the beauty of nature, while using his woodturning mastery to create oriental influenced hollow form vessels with ornamental spears.
- • Craig Lossing
- • Maintaining Nature's Beauty through Precision Woodturning
Craig Lossing
Craig Lossing is a professional woodturner whose award-winning work has been sought after by fine galleries and knowledgeable collectors for over 25 years. Using exotic and burl woods from around the world, his creations range from organic forms and visionary vessels, to whimsical toys and functional objects.
Born in 1955 and raised in Minnesota, Craig was naturally gifted with artistic talent. His creative nature blossomed with course studies in art at the University of Minnesota, as well as the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. He later claimed woodturning as his artistic means of self-expression. Upon mastering the medium he became a full-time, self-supporting artist. Throughout the years, Craig's intense love for woodturning has kept him actively involved with organizations that promote the art, including; the Minnesota Crafts Council, the American Association of Woodturners, the Minnesota Woodturners Association and the American Crafts Council.
Craig's signature pieces are small, lidded hollow forms that range in size from 2" to 6" and feature oriental-influenced ornamental spears that pierce the lid or are artistically supported. To create these pieces, he begins by shaping the outside form before moving inside to maneuvering beneath the piece's lip with bent tools for hollowing. Since he is unable to see inside, years of practice and precision ensure his chisel will not jut through the side, and a consistent thin wall thickness can be reached. The lid is cut with the smallest tolerance possible to match up and maintain the grain pattern. The ornamental spear provides both color contrast and movement to these classical forms.
Craig, your work is inspiring. Superb! Keep on experimenting with your imagination. I recognize talent when I see it. I hate to say it this way but maybe some of the knucklheads will get it: Talent is like adult films, maybe not explicitly defineable, but you know it when you see it. Thanks for sharing.

Really beautiful pieces of functional art, particularly the pair of red ones.1/13/2011 09:41:16 AM Report Abuse
The pictures probably do not do justice to the true artistry behind each of these works. I too am not a big "Asian" fan but I also recognize the simple beauty of that art form and that these works are a very good example of it. I cannot imagine the difficult of turning the inside in the blind. The attention to detail required to make the whole object look seemless is amazing. While "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" clearly some critics need better glasses.5/30/2010 04:49:57 AM Report Abuse

MOREHEAD CITY - A 34-year state record fell Friday with the catch of a 1,228 pound, 8 ounce blue marlin off Oregon Inlet.
Trey Irvine of Weston, Fla., landed the gigantic fish, which measured 179.5 inches total length (tip of the nose to tip of the tail) with a girth of 82 inches.
Irvine caught the fish onboard the Mimi while participating in the Pirate?s Cove Billfish Tournament in Manteo. The Pirate's Cove Tournament is the final billfish tournament of the year in the N.C. Governor?s Cup series.
The fish thrashes the former state blue marlin record of 1,142 pounds caught off Oregon Inlet in 1974 by Jack Herrington. The world record blue marlin stands at 1,402 pounds, 2 ounces and was caught off Brazil in 1992.

After 3 days and many headaches, the circuit is done.
Inputs A, B, C, and D represent a 4 digits binary number (0110, or decimal 6 on this example).
Yes, I did it myself, didn't copied it from the internets.
It's optimized per led sub-circuit, not per the whole circuit. Some min-terms do repeat, I am aware.
IMHO it's pretty.

Mystery Snails mating!
so i have had a gold snail for a couple months now and she is about full size, today i decided to get another snail so she wasnt alone, i got a black one and he is about half the size of the gold one. after putting the new one in the tank (about 30 min) they started to mate!
this is all still new to me since i just set up my aquarium about 2 1/2 months and i am still learning about the fish i have including the snails. so does anyone know how long it can take after snail mate for eggs to show up? also does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do when eggs are laid so they dont all get eaten by other fish?
i think i remember that mystery snails lay eggs above the water line?
thats about all i can remember. haha
thanks, any insight is much appreciated lol
I had mystery snails before, it starts out slow (ish) but soon there will be to much snails in your tank. they will get into your filter and jam the motor. if they are the gold ones they lay eggs above the water line and if it is black they leave a clear sludge in the water.
MTS and pond snails are another story.
yeah so far no eggs have been found, they dont seem to mate as often as they did either, but i do look every once in a while to see if there are any
I just had the same thing happen! Didn't see any eggs until I cleaned the tank and took off the hood. Inside the hood there was a large "crystalized sack" of eggs underneath! Ick! So I took them off and threw them out and promptly moved one of the snails to another tank. Good luck!
from what i have learned is it take two weeks for the eggs to hatch and they are layed just above the water line they need to be omoist but do not put them under water. a lot of time i think when you add a new snail they get to know each other and are not actually mateing

cajun smoked sausage & rice
I needed something spicy. From-scratch but easy.
I needed Zatarain's without the box.
Which would be sacrilege to my old high school algebra teacher.
He was a big fan of the Zatarain's.
Mr. Harden somehow managed to work Zatarain's into algebraic formulas. ("Formulas" is about as complex as I get when it comes to math-speak.)
I was much more interested in New Orleans and eating cajun food off of butcher paper after he got done talking.
So, (more recently) I swiped a spice list from Emeril Lagasse's Cajun jambalaya, reworked it a bit and threw this together...
I want to call it jambalaya...but it doesn't have all that other stuff in it (shrimp, chicken, peppers), so technically, I guess I shouldn't.
Or can't? I'm not sure how technical they get Down South.
I just call it cajun.
Cajun that tastes like jambalaya.
It's simple -- sauteed onions, rice, smoked sausage, spices.
That's it.
One pan of creamy rice chockful of smoked sausage, spiced up -- cajun style.
The cajun takes about one hour on the stove, but there's almost NO prep time.
No cutting bell peppers and tomatoes and celery and garlic...unless you just want to get fancy and throw those things in there.
We love it. Often and a lot.
Even the kids, despite that bit of spice in there.
It's been (a little over) 10 years since high school algrebra (alright, I'm 30.).
But I wonder if Mr. Harden is still into cajun food.
I hope so.
I hope he still tells those teenagers about spices and jambalaya and Zatarain's.
Because that made a little bit of high school more bearable.
I have to be honest, I still really hate math. (Even Sudoku, which isn't even technically math.)
But Mr. Harden remains one of my favorites.
Cajun Smoked Sausage & Rice
I include instructions on how to prep this dish with whole grain rice (brown rice). Rice varieties and even brands can vary on how much water to use and how long the rice should cook. If in doubt, follow your package instructions. If given a range on how much water to use, choose the larger amount. (For 2 cups of uncooked rice, my brown rice called for 4 to 5 cups of water -- I went with 5.)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin or regular olive oil
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 5 cups hot water
- 2 cups uncooked brown rice (not instant)
- 1 tablespoon paprika (see note on spices)
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt or regular salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
- 14 oz. (1 pkg) smoked sausage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
Pour olive oil into a 12-inch skillet and place pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add onion and cook over medium to medium-high heat until onion is lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Carefully add hot water to pan and bring to a boil. Stir in brown rice and spices. Cover and simmer over medium-low to low heat for 25 minutes.
Stir sausage into the rice mixture, cover and simmer for at least 20 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. If the rice has absorbed the water, is tender and the mixture is thick, it's ready. Otherwise, recover and continue to simmer until ready. Mine took a total of 1 hour cooking time.
Note on spices: I've given specific amounts of spices to use, but feel free to wing it, too. I've made this several times by using a fair amount of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and oregano, a healthy pinch of salt and pepper and several dashes of thyme and cayenne. It's tasted great every time!

Kimye coordinated Halloween costumes, and OMG we're jealous.
Maybe we'd like couples' Halloween costumes more if we were, you know, actually in a couple, but we'll tolerate the tradition just 'cause we like seeing our fave celebs looking obnoxiously cute. That in mind, did you see Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's totally adorbs couples-coordinated ensemble???
"Kimye" got into the Halloween spirit by dressing as a sailor and a mermaid (who are dating each other) for the Midori Green Halloween party. And if you're wondering how it's possible that these two could look so comfortable rocking coordinated costumes, maybe it's because it's not their first dress-up party! Way back in 2008, when they were still, ya know, "just friends," Kim and Kanye totally dressed up as "Star Wars" characters (Princess Leia and a Storm Trooper, in case you were wondering). Who knew that only a few years later they'd be engaged (pun intended) in a full-on PDA-sesh at Jay-Z's Made In America Festival, co-starring in VMA promo spots, and most crucially, SNUGGLING. The couple that dresses together stays together (or something)! It might also help that they're both loaded and can do fun things like chill with Nelly and Ashanti and buy cute cats to keep things interesting. But we know they'd be a totally functioning couple without the cat or Nelshanti, too.

Hi John, I've never ever had a single email notification since I joined the site back in May! Its just doesn't want to work for me! I've tried over and over again asking it nicely to notify me by email but nope! I don't think they've abandoned them, I wonder if its technical gremlins at work! Hope you get it resolved.
And I can't link up to facebook either John in spite of the fact that I'm supposed to be able to. Perhaps its getting personal with me!
I have e-mailed Daniel, yet again, today re the glitches and I believe that others have too. Not my job, just like to stick my nose in. Feel free to do the same.
I got some email notifications in the first few days after joining up and posting (in the last week or two). But the email only came a couple of days after the post was posted. So perhaps if you've already looked at the replies you don't get a notification? (or is that crediting it with too much intelligence? )
I think it has just packed up - when it first started going wrong, I'd get loads of notifications all at once, as if the server had been storing them up and connecting every few days. Haven't had any at all for a while now.
same for me. i've got the email box ticked but i never get one.
Same Here
Same here, seemed to get loads all at once until a week or so ago and now nothing.
Cest la vie
No swearing John........
Sorry! don't know Kernow for "That is Life"
I want the notifications back. Some people don't use them but I like it much better when they are working properly
I don't get notifications either, sent an e-mail but not yet recieved a response...
Well this all seems to be working really rather well then!

Great goggles
Wonderful Goggles, comfortable and seal well. I can' think of anything negative about these goggles.
Columbus, Ohio
comfy and effective goggles
Love these goggles; they are the most comfortable I have tried. Today I was able to swim a mile without even touching them at all throughout the whole swim. They seemed a little tight the first day I used them; with a little experimenting I found the goggles were more watertight and comfortable when the strap was loosened a bit. Really pleased to find this pair of goggles !

Best goggles ever!
These are the most comfortable goggles I have ever worn.

Needed excellent pair of clear, peripheral googles for open swim. Got these after reading numerous reviews. This is my first pair of Aquasphere - am now a fan for life - so lightweight hardly notice them after hours in the water -

For hard-to-fit faces
This is the only goggle to ever fit my high nose bridge and seal comfortably without tight straps. Thanks to Susan at the Texas Swim Shop in Houston for turning me on to them! And Swim Outlet for price and service. Last a full year with 3 workouts a week.
Tampa Bay
Fits well around the eyes, head band feels secure and comfortable. No leaks. Easy to adjust. These have become my favorite swim goggles.
ABQ Swimmer
Love them
These were recommended to me because I have small, deep-set eyes, and they're perfect. The larger lens fits around my eye, and seals incredibly well. Very easy to adjust. Other reviews have said they have a tendency to scratch and I do have a few small ones after just a few weeks of use, but I keep them in their case when not swimming and the scratches aren't visible when I'm wearing them, so not a problem. The anti-fog coating hasn't been working as well lately either, but still much better compared to my old goggles. My only real gripe is that while I find them very comfortable, the seal is so good that I have big rings around my eyes when I take them off, and it takes almost an hour before they're gone! Another swimmer on my team has a different model of Aqua Sphere goggles and she too rocks the raccoon look for an hour or so after practice, so you may want to keep that in mind if you have somewhere to be immediately after you swim.

CES 2011: ion iCade Makes Your New-School iPad An Old-School Arcade Machinestrollerderby
The coolest iPad accessory at the show was, without a doubt, the iCade from ion. To be honest, it looks more complicated than it is. It's really just a bluetooth gaming device with a really cool cabinet. It doesn't even have a dock connector — the iPad just rests inside the cabinet and then you can play arcade style games. They were demoing the classic Atari game Asteroids at the show, but they say at launch there will be dozens of games from Atari that will work with it.
And it's not limited to Atari — ion is treating it like any other iPad accessory so any developer who wants to enable their game with it can do so. The iCade from ion will retail for $99 and be available in the late spring of 2011.

Genius Brother My brother is a genius. You probably wouldn't think so if you look at his grades—above average for a normal person's standards, but extremely disappointing compared to my report card, decorated with an obnoxious abundance of "A's" and "Advanced Placement", almost as if my life depended on it.

text: How far ahead should you book them. Me and my friend are going to be driving across the country to find a great band, and on the way back it would probably be a good idea to play some gigs just to make 100% sure we're compatible. Should we call ahead and try to book them before we're even near the city, or should we just pull into the city and see what we can get?

Comics as Scholarship: Digital Humanities Quarterly Special Issue
While the coexistence of images and text towards a shared purpose is now an established part of our digital landscape, often in conjunction with animation, interaction and sound, scholarly forms are still dominated by the textual. But meaningful juxtapositions of media as sequential art offer an opportunity for scholarly reflection, as works such as Bryan Talbot's Alice in Sunderland and Robert Berry's Ulysses Seen remind us. Often, the comic form is still associated with simplicity or beginners. Series of graphic scholarship spawn titles like McLuhan for Beginners that suggest comics are only a tool for transitioning to "real" monographs. But of course, McLuhan himself used experimental forms in his scholarship: The Medium is the Massage has more in common with graphic novels than it does with his text-heavier volumes.
Taking the graphic novel as a scholarly text and transforming it into digital can make things even more interesting. The digital editions of graphic novels, including the CD version (with animations, billed as "interactive literature") of Larry Gonick's Cartoon History of the Universe, the many layers of Art Spiegelman's Meta Maus, and the work of Scott McCloud in his Understanding Comics trilogy add another dimension to the form. Comic books evolving online are already texts of study for the digitally-minded humanities, but can they also offer inspiration for rethinking our own forms of communication? We seek a series of articles in the form of sequential art (digital, interactive or traditional) from a variety of critical and disciplinary perspectives that may address one or more of the following questions:

- Credit cards, debit cards, or prepaid credit cards
- Other online payment services, including (but not limited to) PayPal, Alipay, and INICIS
- Microsoft gift cards
- Your mobile operator bill
Not all payment methods are available in all locales or for all Microsoft services.
Payment cards and online payment services
You can make changes to your payment methods from either your phone on on the web, including adding cards or an online payment service.
- On your phone, you can change your payment method before you buy an app. In the Store, choose an app you'd like to buy, tap Buy, and on the Confirm purchase screen, tap Add or switch payment methods. From there you can switch to another payment method or add one. For more info, see Get apps from the Windows Phone Store. (You can also change your payment method when buying music or videos. Tap Change before confirming your purchase. For more info, see Get music, videos, and podcasts.)
- On the web, go to Billing on the Microsoft account site. Click Payment options, and then add, edit, or delete any of the payment options. For more info, see Billing help on the Microsoft account site.
Microsoft gift cards
If someone has given you a Microsoft gift card to redeem content from Microsoft, like apps, games, and music from the Windows Phone Store, Windows Store, or Xbox Store, you can redeem it either from your Windows Phone or online through your Microsoft account.
- To redeem a gift card from your phone, in the App list, tap Wallet > Add > Add Microsoft gift card.
- To redeem a gift card online, go to Payment options on the Microsoft account site. Click Microsoft account > Redeem card, and then follow the instructions.
Mobile operator billing
Some mobile operators allow you to make purchases from the Store using your mobile account or prepaid balance. If the option is available for you, it will be turned on by default the first time you buy an app. You can change the payment method at any time by tapping Buy, and then on the Confirm purchase screen, tapping Add or switch payment methods.
If you don't see your mobile operator in the list of payment methods, check the Mobile operator billing support list on MSDN to see if mobile operator billing is available in your locale. If it is available in your locale but you don't see it on your phone, try one of the following:
Make sure your phone's country/region is the same as that of your mobile operator. In the App list, tap Settings > Region to check it. Tap Country/Region if you need to change it.
Ensure you're in an area with good data coverage (cellular or Wi-Fi) and your phone is charged. (The best way to get this payment method to appear is to charge your phone fully while it has a good data connection.)
If you still can't see the mobile operator billing payment method, you may need to do the following:
Power down your phone, and then remove the SIM card.
Power up the phone without the SIM card.
Wait a few minutes, and then power down the phone again.
Insert the SIM card, and then power up the phone.
Wait a few minutes and make sure your phone is charged and has a good cellular data connection.
In the Store, choose an app you'd like to buy, tap Buy, and on the Confirm purchase screen, tap Add or switch payment methods.

This issue is much bigger than enforcement. It involves access to businesses, both by cyclists who don't want to lock their bike a quarter mile away, as well as others who may be impeded (endangered?) by bikes locked to convenient objects. It involves the quality and location of racks provided by the city. It also involves the behavior of other cyclists - I certainly don't want my rack parked bike dinged up by some other careless cyclist. Did Charleston really reach out to gain insight to all of these factors before they enacted this ordinance?
For the record, my libertarian tendencies put me absolutely opposed to this ordinance - to the point of wanting to flaunt it. The thing that bugs me is all the whining about not knowing (or expecting enforcement). It happened - get over it.

Some residents in Kinston are seeing more than just a vine in a growth of kudzu on a local utility pole.
People began noticing a utility pole last week with kudzu that they say resembles Jesus on the cross. It's located at the intersection of Highway 258 and Tyree Road, about a mile south of Kinston.
Kent Hardison runs Ma's Hot Dog stand and a half mile from the vine and says he was getting ready to spray it with herbicide until he noticed the resemblance.
Hardison and his customers think the vine can be seen as a symbolic reminder that God is watching over people.
But Kudzu Jesus may also cause some problems. A University of Maryland biology professor says kudzu costs power companies about $1.5 million a year to repair damaged lines.

BOSTON (AP) -- Mike Napoli drove in the winning run with a two-out double in the ninth inning and the Boston Red Sox completed a three-game sweep of the light-hitting Tampa Bay Rays with a 3-2 win on Monday.
The Rays had two hits before finally showing some offensive punch in the ninth when Desmond Jennings led off with a single, stole second and scored the tying run on a single by Ben Zobrist off Andrew Bailey (1-0).
Joel Peralta (0-1) retired Boston's first two batters in the bottom of the ninth before walking Dustin Pedroia. Napoli then hit a liner off the left-field wall and Pedroia easily beat the throw home.
The Red Sox had lost all three of their previous traditional morning games against Tampa Bay on Patriots' Day.

Is the Secret Out?
Swartwood, Dan T., Security Management
AMERICAN COMPANIES WILL continue to expand into the global marketplace throughout the decade, creating a tremendous challenge for security professionals charged with protecting proprietary information. Managers who fail to take on this challenge may be jeopardizing the financial stability of their firms.
United States industries were already collectively losing $23.8 billion due to intellectual property piracy as far back as 1987, according to the International Trade Commission (ITC). By 1989, ITC found that the damage had climbed to $40 billion.(1) These figures include only the dollar value of patent, copyright, and trademark abuse. They do not include the loss from trade secrets and other proprietary information.
The 1992 ASIS-sponsored Proprietary and Technology Theft Survey addressed this other aspect of intellectual property problems. In that survey, thirty-two companies reported dollar losses of $1.82 billion.(2) If all respondents had reported dollar losses, that figure would have been far greater. Extrapolating the average company's loss to account for the potential losses for the entire US business community would easily compare to the $40 billion loss from patent, copyright, and trademark infringement.
In the same survey, respondents were asked about the cost of safeguarding proprietary information. They reported annual average expenditures of approximately $15,000 for formal safeguarding of proprietary information programs. There seems to be a dichotomy between the loss American companies suffer and what they are spending to prevent that loss.
Proprietary information is the lifeblood of any business. The resources directed to safeguard this valuable commodity are not up to the task. But is it really an issue that demands corporate attention?
ALVIN TOFFLER, AUTHOR OF Power Shift, describes a power shift as a fundamental change in how society functions. The power shift that Toffler writes about is the increasingly important role of information in every aspect of society. Information is now more important to success and survival of a business than access to capital.(3) This new level of importance for information requires that security professionals take a fresh look at the entire issue of information security.
Business success in this high-tech world will belong to those who manage access to their corporate data. Information protection requires a broad understanding of the material to be guarded. Information, in all its forms--written, electronic, visual, and oral--is what makes any business succeed.
Unauthorized access to business information has traditionally been handled by physical security safeguards, computer security, and proprietary safeguard methods. Depending solely on these techniques to protect information presents challenges. These disciplines are often under the control of separate parts of the corporation. The security department provides security officers, access control, and perimeter barriers. The management information systems department is responsible for computer security, and anyone from human resources to administration could be responsible for the proprietary safeguarding program.
A lack of central control has left potential vulnerabilities in current proprietary safeguarding efforts. Worse still is that these efforts do not confront the realities that modern corporations are facing when operating worldwide. According to Special Agent David Major, special assistant to the assistant director in charge of the FBI's intelligence division, foreign targeting of American technology and trade secrets continues. Foreign governments have increased their efforts to monitor and acquire sensitive information developed in this country.
Commercial espionage is having such a serious impact on U.S. competitiveness that the FBI has established a strategy to address the problem. As part of the new national security threat list program, the bureau has issued definitions to help focus the issues. …

Reviews of Brookdale Florham Park
I am a friend or relative of a resident
Brookdale Florham Park is clean and fresh. The people are very nice. It is reasonably priced. The staff is wonderful. They are friendly and kind. They have activities like card games, mahjong, and parties. They keep the residents busy.
I visited this facility
Wynwood of Florham Park was smaller and more intimate compared to the other places I visited. I met the marketing and social directors. The staff appeared very helpful when I toured the facility. They offered us lunch so we could see what their food was like. They had a library, computers, games, puzzles, bingo. There were also musicians who came in and transportation was available for the residents. I would recommend this place for those who wanted a smaller facility.
I visited this facility
Wynwood was wonderful. Everybody there seemed happy. One of the personnel was really enthusiastic about the place. You could tell she loved what she did. If Wynwood were closer, I wouldn't hesitate to put my mother there.
I visited this facility
This place is dark and very quite. I barely saw any residents engaged in activities. This was not the place for us.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
The staff was truly amazing. They made a really hard time in our life so much better. My grandfather has a wonderful safe place to live out the end of his life and I couldn't be more grateful to everyone on staff for making his transition into the other side a joyous and life-affirming experience. The fellow residents at the facility were also a big part of my grandfather's successful transition. Knowing that he had friends and that he had amazing caretakers was truly life-affirming in every way.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
Going in, I had no idea what to expect. This was my first experience visiting an assisted living facility. The outside of the home was very attractive, and looked classy - not the run down prison I've heard some assisted living facilities made out to be! However, all the lingering doubts I had evaporated when we walked in. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was laid back and quite comfortable. All of the people I saw out and about in the common areas seemed to be enjoying themselves, which helped put me at ease. After speaking to my aunt, I could tell she was happy and content living here. Overall, I was pleased to see that my aunt was comfortable with her home. She even said that she was making friends easier than she had ever before, and that had a steady set of friends that she considers reliable and fun.
I visited this facility
The facility was really good. We took our mother in law over there last year since she is now almost 80 years old and since my wife is now going to work, there was no way we could take care of her. The nursing staff was extremely friendly and took great care of her until she passed away earlier this year. Whenever we visited, my wife would always ask my MIL about the facility and you could tell that she was satisfied. She obviously wasn't very happy because she didn't get to play with my kids all the time but what can you do.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
The home looks beautiful, completely new, and cozier then i could have ever imagined. Luckily, the town of Florham Park is close to my home making it an easy trip for visits. I actually use to play baseball there. It is a friendly town and this is shown through the quality and attitude of the workers at Wynwood. All of the nurses and various other staff were extremely friendly which is a quality falling by the way side more and more. My aunt claimed to love the facility, the rooms, even how she was taken care of in terms of food and dining. It was an overall warm and genuine experience. One aspect that worries me some was the traffic out front of Wynwood. The home is on a busy stretch of road. Not only is it an eye sore, but the traffic was horrendous the day my aunt, my mother and I went to visit. Hopefully this was only a rare experience of heavy traffic and this home is not constantly bombarded with transportation noise. The price is right and the location is great considering how close it is to my home. Also, there are three extremely high quality hospitals only 5 minutes away which allows my aunt as well as my family good peace of mind. This assisted living home is a real keeper.

Safe at school?
In light of Friday's shooting deaths of 20 children and six adults at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., area educators are reviewing their security systems once again. Locked doors, security cameras, office monitors ... all of these practices and more are on the minds of local school officials, as the nation reels from the tragic deaths in the New England town.

High Ph levels
Hi all...
Thanks to all those who responded to my using bore/rain water thread.
You were all very helpful.
I have had my water tested thoroughly by a specialized fish shop and have been told the water is excellent for the fish.
However the only problem is that the Ph is off the scale - Very high Alkalinity.
I have purchased some 'ph down' chemical that will increase the acidity.
I was wondering what was the best way to add it without disrupting the fish to much and causing them to stress.
How much should i add and at what intervals???
I have a 216 ltr tank with two Oscars.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Those who wanted to know where the water i was using is from - I am in Western Australia.
The pH down chemical is, unfortunately, not recommended and will actually do more harm than good. Once the effects wear off, the water parameters tend to swing back to their usual levels thus harming and possibly, killing your fish.
You have an option to use almond leaves, peat, driftwoods or CO2. Use CO2 only if you wish to make your tank planted.
Re: High Ph levels
Kidding! I'm glad your water is "fishable"!
What does "off the scale" mean when it comes to pH? Mine is also really high (8.0+) I would stay away from the pH down too, for the same reason- Rollercoaster water.
use natural ways, things that contain tannis will help lower your ph but can stain your water, you live in perth?
I had added driftwood to my tank and just took it out of my large tank because of the stained water. Not sure why, but my small tank is fine-the water is still clear. My big tank was looking like tea so I had to do a big water change today and change the filter media. It also started to smell like a lake, which I didn't like.
Re: High Ph levels
I don't see why you would hate the tannins. They do make the water tea-colored but most fish prefer it.:) The tannins from driftwoods will gradually be removed though it'll take a long time for the tannins to be removed completely.
Re: High Ph levels
Yeah, I didn't like the tannins. In my small tank it's ever-so-slight, but in the large tank it was REALLY getting dark. I'm considering adding a smaller piece to see if that makes a difference. The tank also took on a strange smell, which I didn't like. Usually it smells just "organic" and it really started to smell different, like a lake. When I changed the water I used a siphon that also vacuumed the gravel, and I got a lot of weird matter that looked very dark around by the wood, so that is when I took it out. Prior to that I did a water change/gravel cleaning on Sunday, so I was not expecting to see that. Do you think it was all a result of the wood?

You Need Stylish and Soft Burp Clothstoddler-times
If someone had told me five years ago I'd be writing about a piece of cloth that you use to wipe spit-up, I'd have laughed hysterically. After all, I am a fashion stylist. But here I am and proud of it! But I also just have to acknowledge that while not a "fashion" piece per se, they are a fashion necessity because they save your clothes from getting spit-up all over them. And they really are something you are using all day long for months on end.
With my first baby, I bought the generic white cloth diapers that you use as burp cloths and they worked out fine. I never felt like I had enough of them and they went through probably thousands of washes. This time around, as a baby gift, some friends gave me a Lil Squirtz burp set and I have to say these things are amazing! Not only are they super cute, with patterns and a little monkey motif, they are incredibly soft. Which really does matter when you're wiping your little one's mouth again and again.

They make a fantastic gift, especially for someone on their second or third because burp cloths aren't necessarily something you keep around for the next one : ) They come two in a package and wrapped in a bow for $26.

Shot placement is crucial to achieving a quick, clean harvest of game animals. Since hunters do not want to wound a game animal and have it run away and not be found, it is every hunter's responsibility to first practice at a range, and study about the animal being hunted, to ensure that they can place a shot successfully. A properly placed shot should be made in the vital organs of the animal, such as the heart and lung area.
After taking a shot, wait for at least 15 to 20 minutes before retrieving the game animal. Patience is a must at this point. Remember that if the game animal does not drop immediately after having been shot, it will try to hide in a safe place. It is every hunter's responsibility to find any animal they wounded. This calls for patience and persistence, so take your time and be thorough.
When tracking the game animal, look for signs that it was shot - drops of blood on the ground or on plants are good signs. Take time to observe everything in the immediate area. You might find some hair or feathers on the ground or see a trail in the direction that the game animal ran. It is a good idea to carry some blaze orange or other brightly-colored flagging tape with you to mark the blood trail as you move through the bush. This will show the general direction in which the animal ran (be sure to remove any flagging tape when you are done). Should you lose the animal's trail, return to the last place where there was a clear indication of the animal, and try again. You might have to get close to the ground in order to find small drops of blood. Finding the animal can sometimes take a very long time. However it is your duty as an ethical and responsible hunter to find the animal. Don't give up.
Once you find the game animal, approach it with caution from the rear. That way, if it is still alive and jumps up, you will not be in its way. If you see any movement from the downed game animal, you will have to take another shot at it - aimed at the base of the skull where it meets the spinal column, or in the heart and lung area. Most game animals will have their eyes open when they expire. Be sure to immediately attach any game or harvest tag as required.

I've never asked for much when it comes to my daughters. All I want is for them to be healthy, happy, loved, loving, intelligent, free-spirited, fun-loving, introspective, caring, kind, adventurous, capable, level-headed… in other words, all I want is for them to be absolutely everything.
I realized this as I sat talking to some friends about our hopes for our kids, all of whom are still in or just out of diapers (the kids, not the friends). I'm haunted by perfectionism, it's true, but it's the last thing I want to demand of my daughters. It's not that I want them to be all of these things so that they grow up to be a shining reflection on me. I just don't want them to ever endure any hardship, any heartache, any disappointment. Yes, I know that without the lows there would be no highs, that whatever doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Etc etc etc. I know that some pain is inevitable, and probably even a good thing. But the thought of these two girls going out into the world and being trampled down, misunderstood, unappreciated… it's like a fist squeezed shut around the core of me.
I don't think my best intentions matter, though. What it comes down to, what it will feel like to them, isn't so much me wanting everything for them, but me demanding everything of them. And that's the very opposite of my goals as a mom.
So I forced myself to boil it down. There are three things – values, traits, call them what you will – that I hope to instill in my girls in these years that we're all here, together.
- Self-confidence: This is the biggie
- Compassion: There but for the grace of God (or luck) go I
- Ambition: Not to be on the Fortune 500, just to pursue their own dreams
If we manage to send them out into the world with these three things hopefully they'll be able to handle whatever gets thrown at them, and just enjoy the rest. I guess then my job is to trust, to encourage, and to give them a soft place to land just in case they ever need it.
What 3 things – or maybe just 1 thing – do you hope to instill in your kids?
