This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

46th Annual Tulsa Rod And Custom Show - Sooner StyleWritten by on February 7, 2011 Darryl Starbird's 46th Annual Tulsa Rod And Custom Show
Unlike this day and age, when trucks rolled off the line years ago they were sent straight into action. Whether it was the farm, oil field or the local plumber, the beds were filled with tools and the bench seats with grease, grit, and grime. Unfortunately, after years of abuse, the old trucks were swept to pastures, barns, and junkyards for retirement. Fortunately, the Midwest is a vast land filled with retirees ready to be resurrected. Just attend a hot rod show in the Midwest and you'll see what we mean. Take the Darryl Starbird 46th Annual National Rod and Custom Car Show in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for example; it's loaded with trunkless wonders.
A few years back, we packed our lenses up and headed out to Tulsa to check out the Starbird Rod and Custom Show. What we found was 1,000 rides within the walls of the Quicktrip Center. To our viewing pleasure, good portions of those entrants were of the truck variety. Yep, you can always count on the good ol' Midwest for a strong showing of trucks. For that reason we decided to head out and catch this year's show over the February 19th-21st weekend.
Once again, the 46th Annual Darryl Starbird show didn't disappoint. We saw a plethora of trucks scattered throughout the building. Best part is we saw a good variety of year, make, model, and styles of build. There was even a truck qualifier in the Go For the Gold tournament. The Go For the Gold award is an exclusive Tulsa award that encourages builders to create a vehicle displaying innovation, execution, design, and engineering. The award is open to all year, make and model vehicles. The real kicker is, besides actually winning, the winner also receives the largest cash purse in the hot rod industry, twenty grand! On Friday night the field of entrants is narrowed down to the Fine Nine, and the winner is announced Sunday night. Sadly, the truck didn't rein king come closing time, but it was still rad to see one in the Fine Nine holding strong.
Years ago, Tulsa was the oil capital of the world, and because of it, they built the Quicktrip Center (then it was the Expo Square) to hold the largest indoor oil trade show in the country. Long story short, oil equipment is large, and for that reason, the building is even bigger. Because of the mass amount of space available, the Starbird show has room to "play." Let's start with the lower level of the building, which holds monster truck races. Throughout the weekend, 8,000 pounds of mayhem fly over the pummeled rubble of cars below. Along with that is freestyle motocross riders soaring 45 feet in the air performing such acrobatic tricks as candy bars, cerran wraps, and knack-knacks . . . not entirely sure what they are, but they look cool; or crazy, dangerous, insane, and the list goes on. Upstairs are more sights and sounds. Several hot rod icons were on hand over the weekend, including the legendary kustomiser/hot rodder/painter/speed freak Gene Winfield, the animated Norm Grabowski, and the most famous mustache in all of the automotive land, Dennis Gage, the host of "My Classic Car." Other attractions included the Pinstriper's Jamboree, Brian Dunning and His Rockabilly Band, the Texas Bikini Team, and more. All in all, the show is a good time from the minute the doors open until closing time. For information on next year's show, log onto to www.darrylstarbird.com, but for now, take a look at what this year had to offer.

We never found out who owned this '57 Chevy, but that didn't stop us from pointing our cameras at it! This slammified Chevy looked rad layin' frame and tuckin' the 20-inch Foose rollers.The only truck to make the Fine Nine field was Yogi Snider's '55 Chevy. Masked in the ghost-flamed orange paint are a set of frenched '50 Pontiac taillights, a custom tailgate and American Torque Thrust II rims.One of the things that make Tulsa such a unique show is the fact that the show also holds monster truck races. At the lower level of the free-span building is enough room to cram eight alcohol-drinking 1,500-horsepower machines flying 30 feet in the air. Not to mention, the show's background music supplied by the trucks sure beats the soothing and mellow sounds of a little Kenny G up to the 26th floor!Only in Oklahoma! The love for one's tractor doesn't have to end on the field, instead you can let it spill over into your truck and run up the John Deere colors. Besides the exquisite paint, Larry O'Malley's '46 Chevy still rock's the 235ci straight-six with three on the tree.Mark Sherwood of Claremore, Oklahoma, owns both of these haulers. Originally, Mark built the '47 Chevy, turned full-time roadster, and had master flamethrower, Mike "Wet" Willey, lay down the pastel tones. But just like Christopher Walken needed more cowbell, Mark needed more flames. Therefore, he decided to continue on with a '65 Chevy. Besides the obvious Wet Willey paint, the Chevy also features a set of B.A.D. wheels and an awesome custom interior with Ostrich skin leather.Ron Alexander, a local boy, brought out his fully loaded '68 Chevy. Apparently Ron's a fan of Steve Earle's "Copperhead Road" because his '68 is as copper as copper gets. Mix that in with the chromed engine compartment, billet wheels, and pinstriping, his truck is straight class.
Less with more is the only way to describe George Seals' '51 Chevy. At first glance, the truck is unsuspecting, but upon further inspection, you'll notice the headlights have been frenched, the cowl has been shaved, the bumper was ditched for a rolled pan, the hood seam was welded up and, well, the more you look the more you see.In the late '60s, customizer Dave Puhl and Rod & Custom magazine hooked up to build the Phaze II. Designed by Puhl, the concept roadster pickup was built from scratch from the ground up. The late, great AMC supplied all the running gear for the space-age (at that time!) tubular chassis; including the midmounted 343ci V-8, four-wheel disc brakes, control arms, and more.Living by the book (the book of Ford in a Ford) is Darrell Sparlin. Slammed on the ground with airbags, and big-inch Cragar SS wheels, this truck rocks a killer stance. But the key to the look is what lies under the hood, a pirated '98 Lincoln Mark VIII 4.6 32-valve motor all decked out in deep maroon paint.Although not quite done at the time, I couldn't help but take Project Get Shorty to the Starbird shindig.If the truck bug caught you hard at the show, this bright red F-100 was up for sale, looking for a new owner.

Twitter Upholds Bay Area Tradition by Defending First Amendment in WikiLeaks Case
photo credit: dbking (from Wikimedia Commons)
When the news broke a few days ago that Twitter had successfully challenged a gag order in the federal government's investigation into the WikiLeaks case, it was a reminder that the Bay Area is on the front lines of the battle to protect our First Amendment rights in the digital age.
A federal grand jury in Virginia had subpoenaed user account data from Twitter about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, among others, as part of its probe into how that large trove of classified records recently became public.
Twitter has a company policy of informing users before complying with court orders such as this one, which is significant because that allows the user to exercise the legal right to challenge the subpoena in court, where it may get quashed for any number of reasons.
But since government investigators routinely request -- and get -- gag orders in these types of cases, Twitter was barred by law from telling Assange and the others involved in this particular case. So it fought back, and won what may prove to be an important legal precedent in the process.

Long day's journey into AlbuquerqueWednesday, September 29th, 2010
Today and our next day in the Fun to Fly Remos are where the rubber meets the airway, so to speak. Today Patrick and I, flatlanders both, encountered our first real mountains. (Yes, I know we have the Appalachians, but they basically serve as a means of holding in the haze.) And there are more mountains to come before we reach Santa Paula.
We launched from Waco and headed to Midland, Texas, for a quick fuel stop. The leg from Waco to Midland was pretty unexciting with the exception of the fact that we flew past President George Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch, and then later saw what had to have been one of the nation's largest wind turbine farms. We think we overflew about 3,000 of them.
The leg after Midland was Roswell, N.M.: a perfect stop for lunch and a peak at the downtown area. You need only go a few miles before you start seeing signs for "UFO Storage," "Alien Gifts!" and "Area 51 Bakery." (OK, I made that last one up. Maybe I should consider opening an Area 51 Bakery when I retire.) And the Roswell Airport is home to what appears to be the place where 747s go to die. As we were about 10 miles from the airport and I was straining to find the runway, I saw what looked like a bunch of large white buildings, and said so. Patrick spotted them and said, "I think they're airplanes!" They were. Not just airplanes, but row after row of jets in various stages of disassembly, some without their turbines and some with their corporate logos faded from years of baking in the hot New Mexico sun.
"What do you do here?" Patrick asked our lineman. He replied, with a grin: "We tear up airplanes!"
The final leg, from Roswell to Albuquerque, was the most challenging of the day. We started a long, slow climb to 10,500 feet. With outside air temperatures of 30 degrees Celsius, the Remos's Rotax engine chugged along, but our groundspeed was 60 knots. What seemed like a half-hour later, we arrived at 10,500 feet and breathed a sigh of relief. A bumpy ride ensued as we picked our way through the mountains. Emerging through a pass with Albuquerque just 30 nm away, I felt a lot of relief. And the approach into Double Eagle Airport, with the city spread out under the Sandia Mountains, was breathtaking.

20 Reasons to Build a Carriage House Plan
Building a carriage house plan is a practical home addition, and they are becoming more and more popular given the conditions of the present economy. Discover some of the top reasons Americans are building carriage houses.
- Families are outgrowing their homes and need more living space.
- Families need more parking space, especially those with up teenage drivers.
- Growing families do not have the finances to upgrade to a lager home or build a brand new home, but can afford a smaller construction project that will provide much needed living area.
- Families love their neighborhoods and don't want to move but need extra room.
- The family handyman needs a workshop.
- Some homeowners need extra storage space for basement and attic overflow or large and bulky items.
- Homeowner's desire a guest suite that provides all the comforts and privacy of home for frequent weekend visitors.
- Some homeowner's need a place for aging relatives to have the privacy of their own home with the opportunity to seek immediate assistance if necessary.
- The work-at-home parent desires a home office that provides peace and quiet and the ability to visit with clients without disturbing the rest of the home.
- Home-based business owners want a private place to work and meet with clients without actually leaving home.
- Parents need additional housing for college students who require privacy and independence, but still need parental guidance from time to time.
- Homeowners want to add a craft area, hobby room, music room or exercise area, but don't have a basement or enough room in the basement to add one.
- Grandparents are looking for a place for grandkids to stay when visiting for the holidays without having to listen to loud music or be disturbed when the grandkids come home in the wee hours of the morning.
- Parents are looking for a place for boomerang children to stay until they get back on their feet.
- Families may need living quarters for the nanny.
- Owners of large estates may wish to provide living quarters for the maid, groundskeeper, etc.
- Families need room to relax and often use the apartment for a playroom, home theater or game room for everyone to enjoy. They may even use it for an entertainment space for guests.
- Growing families are looking for an additional source of income and rent the living quarters to tenants.
- Garage apartments make nice temporary living quarters while the main home is being constructed and easily convert to a guest house when it is time to move into the main home.
- Outdoor adventurists, nature enthusiasts, hunters and fishermen may not build a garage apartment in the backyard at all, but rather near their favorite lake or in the woods using it as an alternative to a vacation home, weekend retreat or hunting and fishing cabin.

(Sports Network) - The Brooklyn Nets will look to continue their strong play
under new coach P.J. Carlesimo Saturday night when they host the Sacramento
The Nets are 4-1 since parting ways with Avery Johnson. Their last two
victories came on the road, starting with a 110-93 drubbing of the Oklahoma
City Thunder, the team with the best record in the NBA on Wednesday.
But, this is a funny league.
On Friday, the Nets needed double-overtime to beat the Washington Wizards, the
team with the worst record in the NBA, 115-113. Joe Johnson drained the go-
ahead jumper with less than a second to go in the second extra frame to give
the Nets the victory.
"In that situation, man, I'd seen the double team coming and I just took one
hard dribble and pulled up for a jumper," Johnson said.
Brook Lopez led the way for the Nets with 27 points and 13 rebounds. Deron
Williams had a double-double with 24 points and 10 assists and Andray Blatche
also had one off the bench with 13 points and 12 boards.
Johnson finished with 18 points in a little over 47 minutes.
Brooklyn welcomes a Kings team to the Barclays Center which has won four of
five and their last two on the road.
Saturday's game is the finale of a four-game eastern trip. The Kings are 2-1
thus far with wins over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday and an impressive
105-96 victory over the red-hot Toronto Raptors on Friday.
DeMarcus Cousins was a beast against the depleted frontline of the Raptors. He
scored a season-high 31 points and grabbed career-tying-high 20 rebounds. It
marked the third time in the last 25 years a Kings player scored 30-plus
points and posted 20 rebounds.
"I kept out with the mindset tonight to come out and dominate," Cousins told
With his team-mandated suspension behind him, Cousins has been incredible on
the road trip. He's averaged 23.3 ppg and 16.6 rpg as he may be headed to a
Western Conference Player of the Week honor.
It would be pretty remarkable since the Kings suspended Cousins for a game
because his behavior became too much.
"I was kind of in a bad place," admitted Cousins. "I'm just trying to keep it
The Nets beat the Kings, 99-90 on Nov. 18 in Sacramento. The last time the
Kings won on the road in this series was Dec. 18, 2007 when the Nets played in
New Jersey.

I am writing this HowTo because I found it not difficult but tedious to finally get everything working in unison. My motto is "It's easy once you know how!"
If you want Zimbra to run on the same box as your webserver then this is for you.
I am starting from scratch to make things less complex.
Domain Name for this example is: "domain.com"
Local IP Address is: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Step 1: Install Fedora Core 4 with these settings:
+ IP Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
+Hostname: server.domain.com
+Gateway: zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
+Primary DNS: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (self)
+No Firewall
+No SELINUX
+X Window (Default)
+GNOME (Default)
+Graphical Internet (Default)
+Server Config Tools (All)
+Web Server (All)
+DNS Server (Default)
+MySQL Server (All)
+Admin Tools (All)
Step 2: Edit hosts file to look like this.
127.0.0.1-------------TAB------localhost.localdomain localhost
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx------TAB------server.domain.com server
Step 3: Start the DNS Server
Step 4: Install Webmin http://www.webmin.com/
Step 5: Using Webmin install the following by going to "System->Software Packages->Search rpm.net"
Webmin can be access by going to http://server.domain.com:10000/
Search for the following and select the correct package.
Step 6: Download Zimbra "zcs-3.0.0_M3_436.FC4"
Step 7: Extract the package.
Step 8: Install Zimbra by running install.sh in a terminal.
Except all defaults, the only configuration you have to do is set the admin password.
Step 9: Once Zimbra is installed check to see if the admin account got created because in my adventures every time I installed zimbra the admin account didn't get created. Hopefully the bugs already been fixed if it is one.
Open up a terminal and type
"su - zimbra"
You should see "firstname.lastname@example.com"
If you don't you need to create the account.
Type "ca firstname.lastname@example.com passwordgoeshere zimbraIsAdminAccount TRUE"
You should see one line of fairly random output don't worry it's like a unique id or something.
Then type "quit" and close that terminal.
Step 10: Now logon to the admin pannel by going to https://server.domain.com:7071/ in Firefox.
You can now create accounts etc and configure as you desire. However the next thing you will probably want to do is create another domain of "domain.com" as "server.domain.com" probably isn't what you want.
Step 11: Open up another terminal and type
"su - zimbra"
"zmcontrol stop"
Leave the terminal open
Step 12: Find these two files and open them up in Text Editor.
Find all instances of 80 and replace with 8080 or what ever port you want zimbra to run on.
The admin part of zimbra runs on 7071 and I guess you could change that as well but I haven't got game enough yet.
Step 13: Now go back to that terminal and type
"zmcontrol start"
Now close the terminal.
Step 14: Now you should be able to access the zimbra front end from http://server.domain.com:8080/ instead of http://server.domain.com/
Step 15: Open up webmin and go to Servers->Apache, configure it as needed and then hit start.
Note: When stopping Apache from webmin or Desktop->System Settings->Server Settings->Services it will stop Zimbra's apache as well but when you hit start it does not start Zimbra's apache and thus if you want the Spell checker to work you will have to restart zimbra as well. This is why when editing apache hitting "Apply Changes" will do the job nicely.
Step 16: Now you can also configure MYSQL from webmin but the same thing applys when you stop MYSQL you will stop Zimbras MYsql.
Step 17: Now add in the neccercy zone(s) into BIND from webmin.
I haven't included detailed instruction on how to configure Apache, MYSQL, DNS, etc however I don't mind answering any questions to the best of my abilty.

The appropriate office or entity, including the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology and Chief Information Technology Officer for NYU-New York, the Office of General Counsel, and other University officials as required, will lead the investigation into all alleged violations or reports of violations of this policy and, where appropriate, will take steps to remedy the situation.
A. NYU Computer Security
1. Safeguarding Computers for Individual Use
This section describes measures to safeguard computers typically used by individuals in NYU-related activities and for accessing other University resources, such as NYU-NET. As used in these operational specifications, "computers" include but are not limited to desktops or laptop computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), multifunction cellular telephones, USB flash memory drives, or similar devices.
a. Physical Security
i. Do not give physical access to computers to unauthorized persons.
ii. Take appropriate precautions to prevent theft and damage.
iii. Where possible, position monitors to prevent casual viewing by visitors or passersby.
b. System Security
i. Install anti-virus software and keep virus definitions up to date.
ii. Install operating system and software patches and take other recommended steps to mitigate known vulnerabilities of the computer in a timely manner.
iii. Use only NYU-approved software; do not download unauthorized software.
iv. Use a locking screensaver or other mechanism to prevent unauthorized use of the computer.
v. Do not leave your computer unattended without locking it or logging off.
vi. Do not install or use Peer-to-Peer file sharing software; these programs typically enable unauthorized remote access without any password to the contents of the computer.
vii. Do not install or run software that requires a license without that license. Respect license agreements and do not infringe on the copyright of others. (See section A.5)
viii. Respond promptly to notices from authorized University staff that vulnerabilities have been detected in your computer's system.
ix. Take particular care to secure your NYU-access information (e.g., log-ins, passwords) on home computers from unauthorized use by others.
c. Passwords
i. Where possible, secure all computer accounts with passwords, and use passwords to protect all file sharing.
ii. Use strong passwords. Strong passwords consist of at least eight (8) characters. They should not be dictionary words or readily guessable. They should include at least three (3) of the following four (4) characteristics in any order: upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, and symbols.
iii. Change passwords periodically. Avoid reusing a password for at least several change iterations. If you have multiple accounts, avoid using the same password for those accounts.
iv. Do not keep passwords in plain text in a computer file or in plain sight on paper. Passwords should neither be sent in an email nor provided verbally by telephone. If you must communicate account access information in order to ensure business continuity, you should communicate it in a secure manner. Supervisors and managers should make certain that offices have plans for access to files and data for business continuity.
v. Keep a well-secured copy of your passwords available for emergency access. Encrypt any computer file containing passwords. Keep any written file of passwords in a physically secure location, preferably separate from the computer or application they secure.
vi. Passwords for sensitive websites or email accounts should not be saved on the computer.
vii. Where possible, do not configure programs to automatically store passwords.
viii. Shut down web browsers, email programs, or other applications that might store passwords temporarily when they are not in use.
d. Remote Access
i. Any remote computer used to access NYU resources must conform to these Specifications and may be subject to further resource-specific restrictions.
ii. If you do not maintain or control the remote computer, do not use it for access to, or transmission of, sensitive data. Access to non-sensitive data may be permissible. Check with responsible department or a supervisor for guidance.
iii. Use remote access software and services with caution. Pay special attention to the configuration of remote access software, hardware, and services to ensure that they do not present a security risk to your computer or to NYU. Consult with NYU IT Technology Security Services (firstname.lastname@example.com) for guidance on how to choose, set up, and operate remote access technologies.
iv. Obtain prior authorization from both your senior management and the NYU IT Technology Security Services (firstname.lastname@example.com) before using a modem with a computer connected to the University network. Modems present a significant security risk, because they enable unmonitored and uncontrolled remote access to NYU's network and data.
v. Ensure that your computer is not configured to allow unauthorized access to NYU's network by other devices. Special access arrangements, such as wireless access, RAS (Remote Access Server) services access, and sharing network connections, must be authorized by the IT Executive Director of Communications and Computing Services (C&CS).
2. Safeguarding Computers Used by Multiple Individuals
The section covers additional measures for safeguarding computers used by multiple individuals. All the operational specifications set forth above apply, as well as the following additional measures to safeguard such computers.
a. Secure all computer accounts with passwords.
b. Give accounts to authorized persons only; provide individual log-ins. If you share a computer with others, take appropriate precautions to protect sensitive data that others may not be authorized to access and, where possible, create separate accounts for each person who is authorized to use the computer, setting appropriate permissions.
c. Where possible, enforce use of strong passwords and periodic password changes.
d. Make every effort to maintain computer logs and review them on a regular basis.
e. Stay familiar with best practices for administering the particular computer and use them.
3. Business Continuity
Take reasonable steps to ensure that, in case of emergency, another authorized person is able to access the NYU computer you use in order to provide continuity of NYU functions performed on and through it. There are numerous methods available of ensuring shared responsibility for data and systems rather than sharing passwords. For assistance, contact NYU IT Technology Security Services (firstname.lastname@example.com).
4. Purchasing
Discuss adherence to applicable NYU policies and procedures as part of the purchasing process. Computers and software acquired for use with NYU computer and data resources should conform to these specifications.
5. Software Licensing
Software users shall use and install only properly licensed software on NYU computers and the NYU network.
a. Unauthorized duplicating, distributing, downloading, sharing, selling, or installing software and related documentation or using unlicensed software and related documentation constitutes a violation of the software license agreement and of University policy.
b. Each School, department, or other unit is responsible for ensuring that software used on their computers is properly licensed, for adhering to the terms and conditions of those software licenses, and for maintaining appropriate documentation of those software licenses.
c. Individuals separating from NYU who work on a home computer shall remove all University-owned software, including all NYU-licensed software, from the home computer. If you have software on your office computer that permits you to install a second copy on your home computer, remove that second copy.
6. Equipment Disposal or Redeployment
Before disposing of or re-deploying hardware, comply with University computer disposal guidelines, which can be found at www.nyu.edu/asset. Click on Computer Disposal. See also Computer Disposal Guidelines (www.nyu.edu/servicelink/KB0013527).
B. NYU Data Security
1. Protecting Sensitive Data on Computers
a. Follow NYU Computer Security Specifications set forth above.
b. Know what data are stored on your computer, the sensitivity of that data, and what policies apply.
c. Keep local data retention to a minimum. Rely on unit, school, or University storage where you can.
d. Where possible, password protect or encrypt sensitive data.
e. Back up local data on a regular basis and keep the backup secure. Protect backups with the same level of security as the original data. Test backup recovery periodically to verify that it works.
f. If you use a computer shared with others, take appropriate precautions to protect sensitive data that others may not be authorized to access. Where possible, create separate accounts for each person who uses the computer, setting appropriate permissions.
2. Storing or Transmitting Sensitive Data
a. Do not redistribute sensitive data to others within or without the University, unless you are an authoritative source for and an authorized distributor of that data and the recipient is authorized to receive that data.
b. Do not allow sensitive data to be stored on computers or servers outside NYU, unless such storage is authorized.
c. Whenever possible, sensitive data should be transferred in encrypted form, e.g., using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or SSH (Secure Shell).
d. Remember that email typically is not a secure form of communication. Care should be taken to be certain that the recipient is authorized to receive that data and the address is accurate.
e. Sensitive data, including electronic protected health information (EPHI), Social Security numbers, or credit card information, should not be sent unencrypted via email. If use of email is necessary, use encryption technology to protect the transmission of sensitive data in e-mail. This may include the use of VPN (Virtual Private Network), SSL, or encryption of the message itself using software such as PGP (Pretty Good Privacy).
f. Do not transmit sensitive data using instant messaging technology (e.g., AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo Messenger) which use servers outside of NYU. These services may allow sensitive data to be accessed by or stored by unauthorized parties. It is recommended that you consult with NYU IT Technology Security Services (firstname.lastname@example.com) for guidance.
g. Take special care when sending sensitive data by fax to make sure that it is clearly marked as confidential. Every effort should be made to ensure that only the intended recipient has access to the faxed information.
h. Keep fax machines, printers, and copiers used for sensitive data in secure areas. Faxes, printouts, and copies of sensitive data should be picked up promptly and handled appropriately.
3. Disposing of Sensitive Data
a. Sensitive data should be destroyed in a manner that prevents re-creation.
b. Reformat or physically destroy any removable storage media (such as floppy disks, zip disks, tapes, or compact disks (CD)) that contained sensitive data before disposing of them.
c. Shred printouts of sensitive data.
d. Ensure that sensitive data are removed from devices you use before you dispose of or re-deploy those devices.
4. Responding to Requests for Information
a. Do not share sensitive data with representatives of the press (radio, television, print, or electronic media), other individuals, or in public forums, such as mailing lists or web bulletin boards, without appropriate authorization.
b. Refer subpoenas and similar requests or demands for the release of sensitive data to the Office of Legal Counsel.
1. Dates of Official Enactment and Amendments:
a. Adopted by the Office of the Chief Information Technology Officer (CITO) on February 6, 2006.
b. Revised to include a section on Software Licensing (Section A.5), January 14, 2009.
c. Revised to add a sentence regarding commercial purposes (Policy Requirements, Section A), December 12, 2011.
d. Revised to update NYU Information Technology Services (ITS) references and links to new organizational name: NYU Information Technology (NYU IT). October 26, 2015.

A few years ago, IBM began talking about Visibility, Control and Automation™ (VCA).
VCA is the cornerstone of Integrated Service Management. It's how we help clients achieve success.
VCA is not only critical for optimizing return on Virtualization and Cloud, it also applied to end-to-end business services.
To steal a phrase: it's about the service.
The third video in our series is "Cloud Enabling Your Data Center: The Importance of Integrated Service Management In The Cloud" and it is presented once again by Bowman Hall and Barbara Korte.
Bowman and Barbara do two things in this video: they give a great overview of Integrated Service Management and its concepts as well as talk to how that aligns with technologies such as Virtualization and Cloud.
Achieving world-class business services for your organization does not mean abandoning the tenants of your service management practice.
Visibility, Control and Automation™. In a cloud computing environment.
We call it Integrated Service Management.

- Ph.D., Oregon State University (1995)
- M.E.M., Duke University (1989)
- B.Sc., St. Lawrence University (1984)
My primary area of research is environmental toxicology, which is the study of how pollutants affect ecological systems. Although my Ph.D. research focused mainly on long-range transport of air pollutants into remote areas, I now do primarily laboratory-based research on pollutants. Recently, my students and I have investigated:
- the effect of atrazine, a common herbicide, on the morphology of sperm in the fathead minnow (accepted, NCUR Proceedings 2011)
- the environmental and health impacts of hyrdraulic fracking (accepted, NCUR Proceedings 2011)
- the efficacy of herbal dewormers in controlling parasites in equine species
- compiled species accounts for the Neotropical Birds website
I teach a variety of environmentally-related courses. My favorite courses to teach are ones that have an international component. I love teaching ENVS 204: Special Topics: Belize's Rainforests, Reefs and Ruins in the fall semester with a two-week trip in January. You can read about the course from a student's perspective in FUSE. I am hoping to offer ENVS 380:Sustainability in the Amazon Basin that will include a trip into the pristine Amazon basin of Ecuador. I also love teaching upper level electives as ENVS 340: Topics in Pollution, in which we either examine the human health effects of pollutants or the effects of pollutants on ecological systems. I often focus these courses on recent events, such as the Gulf Oil Spill in 2010. Lastly, I often teach the environmental seminar (ENVS 101/ENVS 401) and the Capstone course for seniors (ENVS 451): both of which I greatly enjoy,
I am very involved in promoting sustainability in education, at Ithaca College and beyond. We published an article in Sustainability: The Journal of Record on Sustainability as an Academic Discipline. I also led a NATO-sponsored workshop and co-edited a book on Addressing Global Environmental Security Through Innovative Educational Curricula.

That's a good looking buck.
That's a good looking buck.
thanks guys, we worked hard for him.
gotta give props to 3 buddies who hunted alongside us, it wouldn't have been possible without them. Thanks guys!
Oh wow I never saw any that big last year. Definite stud!
Well I'm heading out in the morning for the Pecos. Been looking forward to this hunt so it's going to be nice hitting the trail. Good luck to all hitting the woods over the next few days. If I'm lucky I'll post some pics.
great buck, well done gentlemen. Dont feel bad Zim, I have been horseback in the Pecos for several weeks total this summer and fall and still havnt seen a buck that big.... good on ya Jay and crew!
thanks guys!
Very nice jay. Love the deep forks all the way around. Hope your bro is happy with that pig.
Another inconsiderate hunter grip! Had a bull scouted out for about a week before my sons muzzleloader hunt. Well guess what, got to the area well before dark, was packing our bags for the days hunt when I see a headlamp coming from one end and a truck coming from the other. Talk about a kick in the gut, I hate that shit! Took me half a day to find him just to have those other guys mess up our game and blow them out. Nevertheless, the bulls are definitely not bugling making it a tough year. Seen a herd last night about a mile away in private property
That sucks Jay. Never fun when you put in a lot of hard work to have it ruined by something like that. Unfortunately I struck out this year. Running around up around Jacks Creek and Iron Gate for six days and only saw six elk, all cows. The wind SUCKED and the bulls weren't talking much. Anyone else have any luck?

Welcome to Pulse!
Jennifer Dennis 110000CSRM firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  economy obama ibm sam maccarran investment smarter tivoli smarter-planet barack palmisano president infratructure las-vegas pulse planet stimulus 1 Comment 50,202 Visits
If you're one of thousands of people flying into McCarran International Airport today for Pulse 2009, then you already know that we are about to explore building a smarter planet through a dynamic infrastructure with IBM Service Management. Are you ready? Good! The next thing on your agenda should be to visit The Top Six Pulse Social Networking Tools so you can decide how you want to keep in touch with friends, colleagues and clients during Pulse.
If you are not one of the lucky ones with this event already on your agenda, it's not too late! Come by the MGM Grand and head over to the Pulse 2009 registration desk.
But, you ask, what is Pulse and why should you care? Good questions. We have the answers.
Pulse is a conference dedicated to building smarter IT infrastructure. You should care because smarter infrastructure is by far our best path to creating new, globally competitive jobs and stimulating growth. IBM research shows that focused investment in just three areas -- healthcare IT, smart electric grids and broadband -- could yield almost one million new jobs within one year.
Come to Pulse to find out what President Obama already knows from his post-inaugural meeting with IBM Chairman, Sam Palmisano: building a smarter planet through a dynamic infrastructure is the fast track to rebuilding a vibrant, globally competitive economy.
" Even as this plan puts Americans back to work, it will also make the critical investments in alternative energy, in safer roads, better health care and modern schools that will lay the foundation for long-term growth and prosperity, and will invest in broadband and emerging technologies, like the ones imagined and introduced to the world by people like Sam and so many of the CEOs here today, because that's how America will retain and regain its competitive edge in the 21st century."
-President Barack Obama


text: Sony KDL-55NX813 3D TV review TV and Home Cinema Reviews 07 December 10 by Jim Hill Sony 9/10 Wired rating Wired Impressive big-screen 3D effect. Handsome design. Accurate local dimming LEDs. Two pairs of rechargeable 3D spex included. Tired The clumsy external 3D transmitter ruins the slick styling of this set and given the price, it should be built in. Price £2,990 (plus £139 for 3D transmitter and glasses) Sony has bet the bank on 3D, but there are still plenty of non-believers that need convincing. And to sway the 3D skeptics, two new 3D-ready sets have been added to the stylish NX range, including this stunning flagship model. Thinner, faster and now 3D ready, it even has an updated version of the minimalist soundbar stand to go with it. Oddly, the 3D transmitter and glasses are an optional extra this time, so is Sony in fact hedging its 3D gamble?In terms of style, this is a return to form for Sony. The brand's other sets look a little clumsy alongside Samsung's knife-edge designs, but at about 3cm, this 55-inch panel has slimmed right down. The bezel around the picture is a little narrower too. It ships with a reasonably attractive glass table stand, but we think anyone choosing from this end of the NX line, which is Sony's design-led "network" range, will go for the optional aluminium table stand, which now has a powered 2.1 speaker system inside.Any of the Monolithic Design TVs, like this one, simply slot into the long aluminium plinth and recline at an angle of six degrees. It's the perfect viewing angle according to Sony, so long as your TV table is only about a foot high. What's more, the 2.1 speaker system inside provides a much-needed boost for the feeble internal S-Master speakers. The sound from this set is reasonably clear, but it lacks any bass weight or volume and as you might suspect, it just doesn't live up to the size of the screen.The NX813 slots in below Sony's flagship HX903, but it's currently the top model in the NX line and it comes with luxuries such as built-in Wi-Fi for wireless access to an expansive list of online content, plus key picture enhancing such as the edge-mounted dynamic LED backlight and powerful 200Hz motion processing.3D and 2D performance The headline feature is 3D, although it's not built in this time, but available as an upgrade bundle containing the IR transmitter and two pairs of 3D glasses. Yes it does ruin the minimal styling, but you can always take it off when you're not watching in 3D, which is going to be most of the time.Sony's Full HD 3D system uses smart-looking active shutter glasses that reduce background flicker to deliver a very convincing 3D effect. Multiple IR emitters within the plastic device keep the glasses locked on, so they tend not to loose sync, but they're not particularly comfortable, hugging the head a little too tightly for us and pinching the bridge of the nose too. Oh well, no pain, no gain it seems, as this is one of the most accomplished 3D TVs thus far.Watching Ice Age 3D on Blu-ray is an effective way to show off this set's 3D skills. The bright LED backlighting gives the snowy landscape a Persil whiteness that plasma and regular LCDs can't match. And given that switching to 3D mode can loose up to 80 percent of your brightness, it helps to have more to begin with. The result here is a very deep 3D effect with minimal loss of light, vivid colours and very little crosstalk.Ice Age 3D, like most of the big budget animations, enjoys a flawless transfer to Blu-ray and it lends itself readily to 3D. The action is smooth and polished and the picture appears to lean way back behind the screen with objects in the foreground looking real and solid enough to reach out and touch. It's 3D at home at its best, but it's still not perfect.As usual, there's a drop in brightness when switching to 3D mode that you'll need to draw the curtains and dim the lights to compensate for. There's also a perceived drop in resolution too. You're still seeing 1080p through each lens, but because it's flashed sequentially, it doesn't have the same sharpness as 1080p in 2D. That said, it's detailed and crisp enough to complete the illusion The sheer scale of this screen is an advantage too because the old adage, the bigger the better seems to apply to 3D viewing. At 55-inches, its possible to see a tangible 3D image looming into the room from almost any vantage point whereas a smaller set means shuffling closer to the screen to get decent 3D results.

While at a family wedding recently, I learned that one of my cousins has studied nine languages. Whoa! How can one mind handle that? That doesn't mean he's fluent in nine languages but still.
It was also interesting that his son did not take such interest in foreign language and was allowed to utilize sign language as his alternative language in college. I wonder if the signs for run and jump are different in each language or if there are some universal actions with signing. Obviously I don't know much about it although I do find it fascinating.
I have studied some Spanish and find that even though the genders of the various verbs are somewhat confusing, the pronunciation and spelling of words is very true to form. I cannot imagine trying to learn English as a second language.
Each vowel has a different sound depending what other letters it's with, however the big kicker is there are exceptions to every rule. Yes, the rule of whether a vowel uses the long or the short sound or whether it's silent can be different in any situation "just because."
Use 'i" before "e" except after "c". How long do you suppose it took to dream up that rule? And where's the logic? And whoever decided we needed to combine vowels? Can't they just each do their own job? And why do we have silent letters? Was it like a scrabble game and more points were allotted for each letter?
If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he get the words? Everyone makes mistakes, but have you ever wondered what happens if a word is misspelled in the dictionary? Forget that. Where would we be if we started questioning if words in the dictionary are misprints?
Okay. So I'm putting way too much thought into this. I guess preschoolers and young students are learning to read and spell in English with much success every day. I did it and don't recall it being that tough. If you're reading this, you did it. What do I mean English as a second language? People are learning it as a primary language all the time.
But face it, the language offers some pretty peculiar sidebars. Take these sentences, for instance, which put the same words in totally different contexts.
The bandage was wound around the wound. The farm was used to produce produce. The dump was so full it had to refuse more refuse. A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum. I didn't object to the object. The insurance was invalid for the invalid. They were too close to the door to close it. The wind was too strong to wind the sail. Upon seeing the tear in the painting, I shed a tear.
Two words in each sentence are spelled exactly the same, yet they are pronounced differently and have totally different meanings.
Likewise, even though my Australian relatives speak English, it's always interesting to compare our different terminologies for different things. Again, how confusing to understand the language with tricks like the following.
Why do we say something is out of whack? Is it ever in whack?
Why do "slow down" and "slow up" mean the same thing? On the same note, "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing. Yet, a "wise man" and a "wise guy" are opposites as are "overlook" and "oversee."
Why do "tug" boats push their barges?
Why are they called "stands" when they are made for sitting?
Why is it called "after dark" when it really is "after light"?
Doesn't "expecting the unexpected" make the unexpected expected?
Of all words, why isn't "phonics" spelled the way it sounds? Did the "f" need a break one day so "ph" was voted to fill in? Maybe Webster was using those magnetic letters on his refrigerator and had already run out of f's, so it was just a matter of improvising. Wait. Webster probably came before the refrigerator.
The mind is a pretty amazing thing. We often times just learn and don't give the why or the how a second thought. Good thing because there's not much we could do about it.

Tech at Night: House passes key FCC reform, House and Senate SECURE IT bills deserve passage
FCC reform advances in the House. Greg Walden's FCC Process Reform Act is a needed bill, so I'm glad that it went from committee to the floor, and took minimal modification in passing. I like that it got an extra poke at FCC being more closed on FOIA requests than even CIA. Locking in the reforms is important, and CTIA is right in saying we | Read More »

CLEVELAND -- There were doubters coming from all angles this season regarding the Cavaliers.
Even though the Cavs were quite active in the offseason reshaping the roster, many wondered if the new pieces would fit.
After the 2009 portion of the season is over, many of those questions have been answered. The Cavs (26-8) have won more games than any team in the league.
Once again, the Cavs are talking about winning a title. But this time, teams are starting to take heed.
"One of the biggest things of winning a championship is the belief that you can do it," Cavs center Shaquille O'Neal said. "Once the guys have that belief, anything is possible."
They've vaulted up to the top seed in the Eastern Conference. They've won six games in a row overall, as well as 11 of their last 12.
They face the team with the worst record in the league, the New Jersey Nets (3-29), at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Izod Center.
The Cavs might not match last year's 66-win record, but if they get a step further in the playoffs, no one would utter a peep. They were upset in the East finals last year by Orlando.
"I liked our team last year, but (I) felt we had some holes," Cavs coach Mike Brown said. "It showed (in the playoffs). This year, it could be a little different."
The Cavs were very up and down early in the season. Once they totally bought into Brown's defensive mind set, they've become an absolute terror.
Heading into Thursday night's games, the Cavs have overtaken the league lead in opponents' field-goal accuracy (43.2 percent) and is second in points allowed (93.8).
The Cavs haven't allowed a team to shoot 50 percent from the field in 24 games.
They had problems with turnovers and giving up transition points a few weeks ago, but they've cleaned that up.
The Cavs are also limiting teams to one shot and controlling the boards.
Brown loves the way Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Anderson Varejao and O'Neal protect the paint.
"It's been big having Shaq in that paint," he said. "Coach (Hank) Egan made a comment the other day. He said, 'Being able to play your minutes with Shaq and then coming in with Z, it makes Z that much more of an effective defender.'
"Z doesn't have to be that main guy. He has another guy over 7-feet who can do it. Then you throw Andy in the equation. We have three very big guys who don't have to play a ton of minutes. It makes it tough to score around that basket."
Varejao played great pick-and-roll defense against the Hawks on Wednesday. He was a main cog in the Cavs' come-from-behind win.
O'Neal's numbers have fallen off, but he definitely protects the rim.
"We expected this from Shaq," Brown said. "As time goes on, he's going to get better. He's extremely intelligent, agile, big and strong. To have that kind of guy in the paint is a positive for us."
Quick shots
o As of 5 p.m. Thursday, the Hawks had not filed a protest with the league office over the shot-clock snafu, a spokesman said. If they do file, it's a long process that takes at least two weeks.
o The shot clock wasn't re-set after a missed shot by the Cavs with less than 2 minutes to play. Hawks coach Mike Woodson said they were going to file a protest. Official Ken Mauer had no comment to a pool reporter after the game.
o Cavs forward LeBron James remains the leading vote-getter in the Eastern Conference after the third returns of 2010 NBA All-Star balloting. Lakers guard Kobe Bryant is the overall leader with 1,606,032 votes, while James is runner-up with 1,579,530.
o In the fourth quarters of the back-to-back games against the Hawks, the Cavs held them to 26 points total, forced 10 turnovers and 29.4 percent shooting (11 of 37).

Three Lions all-state: Stewart leads state champions as first-team selection
March 29, 2013
It is fitting that undefeated state champion Bishop Ryan has the most players of any team represented on this year's Class B all-state team as voted on by the North Dakota Associated Press......
To Tim Chapman. Benson County Wildcats actually took 5th place. In fact before Sara fouled out in the 4th quarter, they were ahead of Minot Ryan. Erling

Surely the whole Phil Woolas affair should finally mean the end of the Labour Party. The fact that so many people still support them just shows how many voters don't even look at the individuals involved, let alone the policies of the parties and are just voting on pure tribalism, causing politics in some areas of the country to degenerate into a species of football supporting where the matches only happen every 5 years (alright, every May if you include council elections).
The fact that I expect West Ham to win the double every season though doesn't actually affect anyone else, apart from giving them something to laugh at, however if I voted Labour every election because Kier Hardie was MP for the place I was born back in the 1890s, ignoring the changes that have happened in the intervening 120 years in both British society and in the Labour Party then it most certainly does affect other people.
Let's be honest, the Labour Party has had its day: when the party modernised it sold its soul, but by then it was already an anachronism. It needs to be allowed to slip off into its place in history with whatever dignity it can still muster.

Wistey Finishes 34th at NCAA Championships
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – In her NCAA Championship debut, Iowa State's Imelda Wistey raced to the wall in a time of 1:01.14, finishing 34th in the 100 breaststroke today at the University Aquatics Center. Seeded eighth in her heat, Wistey outpaced expectation by placing fourth.
According to Iowa State heading swimming coach Duane Sorenson, Wistey rose to the challenge of the toughest competition in the world.
"This is just an incredible meet – the world's fastest meet for women. It's better than the Olympics," Sorenson said. "At the Olympics you don't have all of the fastest women in the world, just a few of the fastest from each country."
While Wistey missed her goal of advancing to finals in the 100 breaststroke, the Cyclone senior posted one of the best performances of her career.
"I'm very proud of her performance. She went out and swam the second-fastest time of her life and really stuck to the race plan," Sorenson said. "She was a little disappointed that she didn't get a personal best and score in the meet, but she competed really well."
With a top-16 finish at the front of her mind, Wistey will have another chance to clinch her goal as she returns to the pool for the 200 breaststroke preliminary heats at 11 a.m. tomorrow.

Waterloo, IL (KSDK) - The family of a Columbia, Illinois woman murdered by her husband is suing his employer.
Christopher Coleman was convicted of triple murder on May 5, 2011, exactly two years after his wife, Sheri, and their sons, Gavin and Garrett, were found strangled in their home.
The suit by Sheri Coleman's family claims Chris Coleman's employer, Joyce Meyer Ministries, knew about the threats made against the three victims and could have done more to prevent their deaths.
On Tuesday afternoon, Joyce Meyer's attorney filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, attempting to convince the judge there was not enough evidence to move forward with this case. NewsChannel 5 cameras were not allowed inside the courtroom, but sources said the two sides argued for about an hour before the judge had heard enough.
The issue at hand is not whether Joyce Meyer's Ministry had any knowledge that Coleman may have been plotting to kill his family, but whether they had a duty to report that knowledge. Meyer's attorney insists the ministry didn't know about Coleman's plans. And even if they did, there's nothing in Illinois law that would have required them to take action.
Lawyers for Sheri Coleman's family said the ministry did have knowledge of threats against the family and offered them security services. They said the ministry was negligent by offering those services and then doing nothing to protect the family.
Attorneys for Joyce Meyer said those security services were declined.
Both sides agree the murders were senseless and tragic, but the judge did not decide whether to approve or throw out the motion.
Lawyers were asked to email their cases to the judge so he could take them under further advisement.
It could be some time before he makes a decision.
Meanwhile, Chris Coleman was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the murders.

By: Jenée Desmond-Harris Posted: Dec. 16 2011 2:51 PM 0 Very sad news about the health of legendary "At Last" and "Tell Mama" blues singer Etta James: We knew that her health wasn't good, but today her live-in-doctor, Elaine James, has announced that James' leukemia is incurable and has asked the public for prayers: Elaine James says she's spreading word of the singer's ailments so people will pray for her. She says fans know Etta James has been sick "but not how sick." Court records in the singer's probate case show she also suffers from dementia and kidney failure. Elaine James made her comments outside a Riverside conservatorship hearing over the singer's $1 million estate. The singer's son, Donto James, wants a conservator rather than the singer's husband, Artis Mills. Read more at the Washington Post. Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- Dr. V Craig Jordan, of Georgetown's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center will be honored by Susan G. Komen for the Cure for his significant work to help find a cure for breast cancer.
"A good researcher is somebody who is inquisitive, can get out of bed everyday because you're doing it for a purpose," said Dr. Jordan.
Dr. Jordan's purpose and passion is developing drugs to treat breast cancer. He has won every major cancer award that has been given to an individual and has been lauded by presidents, even royalty. Now Susan G. Komen for the Cure, at its first ever Gala; "Honoring the Promise" is also honoring Dr. Jordan, the man the world knows as "The Father of Tamoxifen."
Three decades ago, around the same time the Komen foundation was getting off the ground, Dr. Jordan and his team were the first to discover the breast cancer prevention properties of Tamoxifen, a failed contraceptive drug.
"People didn't want to use drugs long term in cancer because the tumor becomes resistant...I found out in my laboratory that longer was going to be better," Dr. Jordan told us.
His battle cry became Tamoxifen forever and now 30-years later it is still helping extend women's lives.
He added, "I've always said that it is basically we're gaining time. That mothers can see their children grow, that grandparents can see their grandchildren graduate. Gaining years of life is absolutely important."
But recent studies have found serious side effects with tamoxifen. However, Dr. Jordan feels understanding the good, bad and ugly of tamoxifen, will only lead researchers to different drugs that will treat other forms of breast cancer.
"You've got to have something as the world record to make a better world record," Dr. Jordan said.
And this scientist, who was also a British Army officer, believes he will find that magic cancer bullet in part because of what he was taught in the military.
Susan G. Komen for the Cure's Gala "Honoring the Promise" is Saturday, October 16th, at the Kennedy Center.
