Everything has its limitations; Confidentiality in therapy is no exception. It is a common misperception that enrollment in therapy guarantees any and all disclosures are protected by law.
Whether you're unloading your guilt about murdering your neighbor, bragging about beating up your elderly in-law or planning a deadly overdose for the upcoming weekend, a therapist is required to sort through their client's information and determine whether a legal responsibility to break confidentiality exists.
The vast majority of disclosures from client to therapist are held in the strictest of confidence; obviously "trust" would be significantly impaired otherwise. However, clients often find themselves in a position of regret when the information they disclosed requires the breach of confidentiality by the provider.
Clients should be aware of the limits to confidentiality before and during treatment, thus putting them in the position of control regarding the degree of disclosure they wish to make to their therapist. When a client appears to be moving in a direction of reportable disclosure, a good therapist will interrupt and remind the client of the law. This allows the client to move from a vulnerable "emotional" mind to a "wise and rational" mind, allowing them to re-assess whether the information about to be shared best be kept to themselves.
So what constitutes the right and responsibility of a provider to breach their client's confidence? First and foremost, disclosure regarding serious and imminent danger to either themselves or others, due to a mental illness, automatically removes the client from a protected status. Therapists are required to intervene when a client references being suicidal, demonstrates a lethal plan, shows access to the means and expresses intentions to die.
As providers, we are frequently asked the question "How can you betray your client like that? If they can't tell you without being shipped to the nut house, who can they tell?" Our response is always the same: We are required by law to intervene in such cases. Failing to do so could potentially lead to not only the client's death, but the provider's right to practice psychotherapy for the long-haul.
It is not a difficult decision to make; after all, most suicidal intentions pass after a brief duration of time. Providing that duration of time is the therapist's responsibility.
Intentions to seriously injure or kill somebody else due to a mental illness, also requires the therapist to break confidentiality. Not only must the therapist intervene directly with the client, but the intended victim must also be notified of the threat. If an individual has intentions to injure or kill somebody else, but does not suffer from a mental illness, then the responding party becomes law enforcement.
In the event that a client is determined to be gravely disabled due to a mental illness, the therapist can break confidence to ensure the safety of the client. An example of this would include a person suffering from schizophrenia who is found wandering the streets naked in the middle of winter. Obviously this individual is not of the capacity to ensure his safety, thus it becomes the mental health provider's responsibility to assume the position of protector of this vulnerable individual.
It must be clearly stated that there is nothing illegal about being "crazy" or mentally ill. Just because a person is delusional doesn't justify a breach of confidentiality. It is only when the "crazy" puts them at immediate and serious risk of harm that protective action can be taken.
Just because a mentally ill female calls into dispatch with reports that little green monsters are recycling aluminum cans from her dumpster doesn't mean she is at risk of immediate and serious harm. Thus a therapist would not be able to disclose that person's enrollment in treatment to doctors, law enforcement, family, etc.
Often therapists are subpoenaed by attorneys to testify in court. If the client refuses to sign a release of information to the court allowing the therapist to testify on his behalf, the therapist is prevented, by law, from disclosing confidential client information. It is only by the order of the court that mental health therapists can be required to breach confidentiality.
Even then, therapists are required to minimize the degree of disclosure to minimal information necessary to answer the question. This of course, can be tricky.
Therapists are mandated reporters. Thus if a therapist becomes aware of child or elderly abuse, a report to the Department of Health and Human Services is required within 24 hours. So whether you dislike your in-laws or not, disclosing your secret of joyfully torturing them with cattle prods to your therapist does not mean your "secret is safe with us."
Clients should definitely be aware there is no statute of limitation on sexual abuse. If a middle aged woman reports during therapy she was molested by her neighbor John Doe at the age of 12, a report to Human Services is still required. Whether the report is shredded, buried, burned or investigated is at the discretion of the Social Service agency.
All other disclosures require the written consent of the client. This includes their family, doctors, probation officers, teachers, etc. Mental health does not fit the provider-to-provider definition for openly exchanging medical information without client consent. This can be very frustrating to the doctors who refer their patients for services, understandably.
In review of these limitations to confidentiality, anyone considering enrollment in psychotherapy might best consider the motto "silence is golden" if not prepared for certain information to be passed on to mandated agencies.

Man charged with two counts DUI manslaughter
Published: Thursday, November 28, 2013 at 5:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 28, 2013 at 5:26 p.m.
A motorist who sped through a red light and crashed into another vehicle, killing a husband and wife in late October, has been arrested on criminal charges, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
On Thanksgiving day, officials arrested Allen Cole Godwin, 30, of Dunnellon, on two counts each of DUI manslaughter and vehicular homicide and one count of DUI property damage.
The Oct. 24 crash claimed the lives of Ray Allen Kraus, 67, and his wife, Pamela Jean Kraus, 64, of Ocala.
Witnesses told FHP troopers that Godwin's 2004 Chevy Colorado was speeding west on State Road 200 when he blew through a red light in the 8300 block. The Krauses were traveling east in a 2013 Chevy Impala and had a green light to make a left turn. The truck slammed into the passenger side of the car at a high speed, according to reports.
FHP authorities said they believe Godwin was traveling 78 mph when he ran the red light. Tests revealed that his blood alcohol level was .19. The state's legal limit at which someone is presumed to be intoxicated is .08.
After the crash, Godwin was flown by helicopter to UF Health Shands Hospital in Gainesville, where his initial status was listed as critical and later was changed to fair. The couple was pronounced dead at the scene.
According to county and state records, Godwin has a history of driving-related citations, including a 10-month prison term for driving while license is suspended or revoked.

ACT Research says Class 8 orders in October hit a 2010 high
November 22, 2010
Recent data published by ACT Research, a provider of data and analysis for trucks and other commercial vehicles, said that October net orders of heavy-duty Class 8 vehicles at 18,914 units were up 24 percent from September.
September orders were up 15 percent from August, and August was up 15 percent from July.
ACT said in its most recent edition of its State of the Industry: Classes 5-8 Vehicles that Class 8 net orders in October hit its second highest monthly total since April 2008. October 2009 is the highest monthly total during that span, with some carriers ordering lower-priced engines ahead of the EPA's emissions mandate which upped the price of heavy-duty Class 8 vehicles by about $10,000, according to ACT.
"While September gave a hint to increasing demand for Class 8 equipment, October orders provided the strongest sign yet that the transportation sector recognizes the need to replace aging equipment," said Kenny Vieth, ACT president and senior analyst, in a statement. "With production of equipment rising only slightly in October, the order backlog is now 29 percent above it trough earlier this year, a sign that the commercial vehicle manufacturing sector is getting healthier."
In a recent interview with LM, Vieth said that based on ACT's modeling and anecdotal evidence from truckers, it seems like the supply-demand imbalance, which has been tilted away from truckers for the last four years, has gone back to truckers, and it is not abating.
At current levels, Vieth said truck and trailer production is positioned to ramp up as fast as demand is. And with capacity still tight and current fleets aging in conjunction with a potential stretch of increased truckload earnings there could be some staying power for future truck production, he said.

|Julie Worley takes over as executive director for economic development
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
Julie Worley is still getting her feet wet as she just finished up her first month as the new Phillips County Economic Development executive director.
Worley is replacing Jeff Weaver, who occupied the position from September to November.
"I really do enjoy economic development, especially economic development in a small, rural community," Worley explained. "Sometimes it is unknown to the people in the community, but there is so much the community has going for them. Sometimes you need those outside eyes to come in and see it."
Worley expressed that one of her first orders of business is to work with the Holyoke and Haxtun Chambers of Commerce to promote buying locally. She noted that people tend to think that they have to go to a big city and large retail chains to get what they need but fail to realize what their small community has to offer.
While she is familiarizing herself with the people and businesses of Phillips County, Worley has benefitted from the guidance of Phillips County Economic Development board president Nici Bishop. Bishop served as the executive director from January 2006 until August of 2011 when she took over as board president. Worley and Bishop's mother grew up together in Oshkosh, Neb.
"I have been able to tap into Nici's knowledge and her expertise and past experiences with economic development to pick up some things I need to know about the job," Worley said. "She has been a tremendous help."
Currently Worley is in town a few days a week as she has been living in Oshkosh, helping take care of her 88-year-old father. In the near future, Worley plans to move to the community and settle in to her full-time position.
Although she has had little time to fully introduce herself to the county, Worley is not unfamiliar with the area.
"I have always liked Holyoke. Through the past 40 years, coming and going to Nebraska, I always went right through Holyoke. I have always liked the town and am very much enjoying it," Worley said.
"The people are friendly and there is a lot here. Maybe some of the local people don't realize what there is here, but Holyoke has a lot going for it."
Worley earned her undergraduate degree in business management from Colorado State University. She previously worked in economic development for a decade in Rocky Ford. Before she entered into economic development, Worley had worked as a director of human resources and as a legal secretary in her 30-plus years in the workforce.
In her free time, Worley is a big basketball enthusiast. All three of her sons played basketball at the collegiate level, and she hasn't stopped following the sport since their graduations. She noted that her favorite part of the year is approaching as March Madness is about to kick off.
Some of her other hobbies include reading, cooking, yard-work and sewing.
For economic development questions, Worley can be reached at 970-854-4386.

I upgraded from 6.0.10 FOSS to 7.0.1 FOSS and now I cannot see the folders that where created during the migration from Exchange anymore.
Any folder created in Zimbra is visible.
This problem also happens when I use mobile version in any browser. So it´s not related to any mobile.
If I search, the content of the missing folders appears in the results, even in advanced search I can select Exchange folders, just when I click folder they dont are visible.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue? It´s quite annoying.

St. Louis (KSDK) - We've learned that the St. Louis Rams are heading to arbitration over the Edward Jones Dome.
The St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission voted Thursday to begin the arbitration process.
Negotiations began in February with the CVC proposing $124 million in Dome improvements.
The Rams countered with a much broader plan that city leaders say could cost $700 million.
Under the terms of the lease, if the Dome is not among the top tier of NFL facilities the Rams will be free to leave after the 2014 season.

Difference between revisions of "Document security-relevant requirements"
|Line 126:
|Line 126:
Revision as of 01:03, 27 May 2006
- Document business-level and functional requirements for security.
- Requirements Specifier
- As necessary; generally, once per iteration.
In this activity, we describe how to take a resource-centric approach to deriving requirements. This approach results in much better coverage of security requirements than do ad-hoc or technology-driven methods. For example, many businesses will quickly derive the business requirement "Use SSL for security," without truly understanding what requirements they are addressing. For example, is SSL providing entity authentication, and if so, what is getting authenticated, and with what level of confidence? Many organizations overlook this, and use SSL in a default mode that provides no concrete authentication.
All requirements (not simply security requirements) should be SMART+ requirements - i.e., they should follow a few basic properties:
- Specific. There should be as detailed as necessary so that there are no ambiguities in the requirement. This requires consistent terminology between requirements.
- Measurable. It should be possible to determine whether the requirement has been met, through analysis, testing, or both.
- Appropriate. Requirements should be validated, thereby ensuring that they not only derive from a real need or demand but also that different requirements would not be more appropriate.
- Reasonable. While the mechanism or mechanisms for implementing a requirement need not be solidified, one should conduct some validation to determine whether meeting the requirement is physically possible, and possible given other likely project constraints.
- Traceable. Requirements should also be isolated to make them easy to track/validate throughout the development lifecycle.
SMART requirements were originally defined by Mannion and Keepence. We have modified the acronym. The original "A" was "Attainable", meaning physically possible, whereas "Reasonable" was specific to project constraints. We have combined these two requirements since their separation is somewhat arbitrary and since we believe there should be a focus on appropriateness. Due to this change, we distinguish our refinement as SMART+ requirements.
The original paper on SMART requirements is good elaboration on these principles. See http://www.win.tue.nl/~wstomv/edu/2ip30/references/smart-requirements.pdf.
Document explicit business requirements
Security requirements should be reflected in both business and functional requirements. Generally, business requirements will focus on demands from the customer and demands that are internal to the organization. As a result, business requirements may be somewhat unstructured.
A starting point for internally driven requirements can be taken from a global security policy, if present. Be aware that individual projects may have specific requirements that are not covered by the global policy or are in conflict with it.
Since customers often are not adequately security-aware, one should not expect to derive an exemplary set of security requirements through customer interaction. It is recommended to explicitly bring up issues that may become important with system users after deployment, particularly:
- Preferred authentication solutions;
- Preferred confidentiality solutions for network traffic;
- Preferred confidentiality solutions for long-term storage of key data; and
- Privacy concerns (particularly for personal data).
Develop functional security requirements
Functional security requirements should show how the basic security services are addressed for each resource in the system, and preferably on each capability on each resource. This generally calls for abstraction to make the process manageable. Security requirements should be, wherever possible, abstracted into broad classes, and then those classes can be applied to all appropriate resources/capabilities. If there are still resources or capabilities that do not map to the abstractions, they can be handled individually.
For example, end-user data that is generally considered highly sensitive can often be placed into a "User-Confidential" class, whereas public data could be placed into a "User-Public" class. Requirements in the first class would tend to focus on circumstances in which access to that data can be granted to other entities.
Classes can be applied either to data resources or to individual capabilities by specifying a requirement that the specific resource or capability should be handled in accordance with the security policy of the particular protection class. When applied to data resources, requirements should be specified in the abstracted class for any possible capability, even if some data elements will not have the capability.
Whereas most data resources will lump into a few reasonable abstractions, it is often the case that other system resources such as the network, local memories, and processors do not conform to user data requirements.
For each identified category, specify protection requirements on any resource in that category, relative to the basic security services:
- Access Control (authorization): What privileges on data should be granted to the various roles at various times in the life of the resource, and what mechanisms should be in place to enforce the policy. This is also known as access control and is the most fundamental security service. Many other traditional security services (authentication, integrity, and confidentiality) support authorization in some way.
- Consider here resources outside the scope of your system that are in the operating environment which need to be protected - such as administrative privileges on a host machine.
- Authentication and integrity: How is identity determined for the sake of access to the resource, and must the resource be strongly bound to an identity? For example, on communication channels, do individual messages need to have their origin identified, or can data be anonymous?
Generally, requirements should specify necessary authentication factors and methods for each endpoint on a communication channel and should denote any dependencies, such as out-of-band authentication channels - which should be treated as a separate system resource.
Integrity is usually handled as a subset of data origin authentication. For example, when new data arrives over a communication channel, one wants to ensure that the data arrived unaltered (whether accidentally or maliciously). If the data changes on the wire (whether by accident or malice), then the data origin has changed. Therefore, if we validate the origin of the data, we will determine the integrity of the data as well.
This illustrates that authentication - if it is necessary in a system - must be an ongoing service. An initial authentication is used to establish identity, but that identity needs to be reaffirmed with each message.
Identity is the basis for access control decisions. A failure in authentication can lead to establishing an improper identity, which can lead to a violation of access control policy.
- Confidentiality (including privacy): Confidentiality mechanisms such as encryption are generally used to enforce authorization. When a resource is exposed to a user, what exactly is exposed: the actual resource or some transformation? Requirements should address what confidentiality mechanism is required and should identify how to establish confidentiality - usually requiring identity establishment.
- Availability: Requirements should focus on how available a resource should be for authorized users.
- Accountability (including non-repudiation): What kind of audit records need to be kept to support independent review of access to resources/uses of capabilities - i.e., what logging is necessary? Remember that log files are also a data resource that need to be specified and protected.
After building a set of abstractions and mapping it to resources, one needs to ensure that all resources (and preferably capabilities) have adequate coverage for security requirements. This generally entails walking through each resource identified in the system and attempting to determine whether there are special requirements relative to each of the core security services.
The output should not only consist of security requirements, but also documentation of what threats were considered. Considered threats should be documented on a per-resource - or per-capability - basis and should address each security service. These should be cataloged in the threat model.
Explicitly label requirements that denote dependencies
All external dependencies should be captured in requirements to whatever degree reasonable. All third-party components used should be specified. Any required functionality in the operational environment specification should be specified.
Any requirements denoting external dependencies should be explicitly labeled as such in order to facilitate subsequent analysis.
Determine risk mitigations (compensating controls) for each resource
At the business requirement level, one generally identifies what resources need to be protected - i.e., what risks on individual resources need to be addressed - and may document customer-driven technology decisions for ways to mitigate risks on those resources.
Functional requirements should specify what mechanisms should be put in place to provide security services on resources. Such mechanisms address particular risks. A requirements specifier should not worry about determining specific risks. This means that the requirements specifier should not spend too much time identifying how particular services might be compromised. Instead, he should prefer specifying general mechanisms that assume any method of compromise.
While this may not address all risks, it shifts the need for security expertise into the analysis process (usually, architectural analysis). Of course, as risks that are more granular are identified, requirements and mitigations should be updated.
Functional security requirements should focus on how potential security risks are to be addressed in a system. As with business requirements, functional security requirements can be derived in a structured way from either a set of resources (including those that are not explicitly data resources, such as the CPU) or, preferably, a set of capabilities defined over a set of resources.
Risks on capabilities differ throughout the lifetime of a system, and when specifying functional requirements for protecting data, one should explicitly consider this. If and when data-flow diagrams are available for the system, one should trace each resource through the diagram, assessing risk relative to each core security service at each step, particularly assessing whether currently identified controls are valid at each trust level.
It can be useful to carefully consider data flow through the system as opposed to just data considered statically. Realistically, requirements on that data can change, depending on the subsystem in which the data is passing - particularly as the data passes through system trust boundaries.
Particularly, one should realize that data belonging to one user could often have accidental (unauthorized) flows to other users in the system and to people with insider access to the system. Seek to protect data as soon as feasible and for as long as possible - particularly, while data is in storage.
For each resource capability tracked through the system, identify on trust boundaries what risks could be considered (iterating through the basic security services), then identify solutions for addressing those risks. If an action is to be taken as part of the system being built, document it as a functional requirement, mapping it explicitly to the capability, resource, and any relevant business requirements.
If no protection is to be implemented in the context of the system, the risk should be documented for the benefit of the end user. Additionally, when feasible, one should recommend compensating controls - mitigation techniques that can be implemented by the customer. Similarly, even when risks are addressed internal to the system, there will generally be lesser lingering risks, and these too should be documented in an operational security guide. See the activity on Building operational security guide for more detail.
One should iterate on security requirements as new risks are presented - such as through risk analysis.
Resolve deficiencies and conflicts between requirement sets
Many systems will have multiple levels of requirements, all of which will address security. For example, a project may have a set of business requirements, a set of functional requirements, and a set of global requirements that are effectively requirements for the project - particularly if they are not directly incorporated into either of the other artifacts.
One should map each set of requirements to the others in order to determine omissions and conflicts. For example, one can annotate a copy of global requirements, specifying which business or functional requirements map to each global requirement by iterating through the business or functional requirements that are security-relevant.
Conflicts, when noticed, should be resolved as appropriate. If a global requirement is to be exempted, an organization should have an approval process involving the owner of the global requirements and resulting in explicit sign-off. Otherwise, conflicts should be resolved by mutual agreement of appropriate contributors.
When business requirements fail to address a global requirement, or functional requirements fail to elaborate on business requirements adequately, create a new requirement as appropriate.

Hero Kit Hero Kit for Mountain Biking $0.00
Putting together a tool kit for mountain biking requires experience, forethought, and knowledge of the tools that are available. However, if you're new to the sport, haven't worked in a shop your whole life, or just don't need to use your resources to piecemeal something together, then the Hero Kit for Mountain Biking is for you.
Not only does the kit provide tools, it also includes step-by-step instructions, too. This means that when your electronic gadgets are out of range or have chewed through a battery, you're still able to reference a 24-page waterproof manual of easy-to-follow instructions. Essentially, that's the extent of this kits thoughtfulness. However, it's much more than just a book and multi-tool in a plastic bag.
First off, the included LokSak is a waterproof, highly-durable bag -- not something that you pack a lunch in. The Hero Kit also includes a multi-use wipe in order to spare your favorite sock from a dishonorable trailside demise. Some more commonly overlooked essentials are duct tape, cable ties, and an emergency contact card.
Well, that covers personal and some mechanical aids, although, there's more to the latter. You'll also find that the Hero Kit smartly includes a gear cable, 9- and 10-speed KMC replacement links, a frame bolt, and a cleat bolt. If you've ever experienced the frustration of a loose cleat halfway through a ride, you're able to rightfully appreciate the last detail.
As for tire repairs, the kit includes a Planet Bike tire levers and a patch kit, along with a Tyvek boot in order to repair torn sidewalls. Finally, the Hero Kit Hero Kit for Mountain Biking's multi-tool has 12 functions including all of the common Allen wrenches, a T25 torx, and a chain breaker.

Reviews & Community
It's worth the weight.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Thank you Backcountry.com and Hero Kit for hand-selecting me to review this piece of gear for the benefit of the Backcountry.com community!
We were 80 miles into 150 mile our trip. Leaving from Harrisonburg, Va earlier that morning, we started climbing over into West Virginia. We had anticipated this climb all morning. I didn't know specifically how this trip was going to challenge me; all I knew was that it was going to be hard. Luckily for me, my boyfriend Matt is a crazy cyclist like me and agreed to take the trip with me. As any cyclist knows, you have to keep pushing the pedal on stroke at a time. The lactic acid builds in your legs, your breathing becomes heavier and the precipitation on your face builds. There is a certain draw to this biological pain that keeps us cyclists coming back for more. We continued our climb into the mountains. Hard long pedal strokes dominated much of our ride. We finally reached the peak of the mountain; my legs could finally spin freely. As I started to breathe a sigh of relief, I heard Matt behind me, "Oh no, no, no." We managed to pull over to the side of the road and Matt inspected his bike. Much to our surprise, his front derailleur cable snapped. Sometimes our adventures don't go as planned. Small mechanic features can derail an adventure that could have easy been avoided. Hero Kit allows for the adventure to continue. The package can fit easily in a riding backpack. It seems to be too heavy to fit in a jersey pocket. The airtight packaging keeps rain and moisture out. Hero Kits are packed with supplies that every rider should pack, but often forget. Each kit comes equip with a manual on how to complete each fix and the predicted level of intensity for each fix. This pack is ideal for beginners who want to ride and have the comfort of a mechanic along for the ride. I would highly recommend using Hero Kit to carry along on any adventure or any route. Great gift for beginners or for any young cyclist learning to fix his or her bike.
Save side trail trouble; pack a Hero Kit
Great booklet!
The booklet that comes with the Hero Kit has easy instructions and also a predicted level of intensity for each fix. That way you can choose if you want to get knee on a fix on the side of the trail.
Partner up!
It was love at first sight.
Pretty much everything you could need
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a pretty slick kit with everything you could need for basically any situation on the trail. From getting the Hero kit, you will know those who designed it did their homework and really pulled a great kit to help get you out in case of emergency. I'm typically a minimalist when I ride, meaning I hate carrying anything with me. Is it smart, no, not really. However if I was planning a longer ride, or just the piece of mind knowing that if anything comes up I am good, I would have this kit. It's well thought out with items you may need in an emergency as well as a really helpful book in case you've never replaced a link in a chain. Everything packs up pretty small in a waterproof pouch with a bit extra room if you have a few other things in mind.
very convenient
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great tool kit to take on the long mtb rides. It has everything you need and also things you didn't think of. I like the fact that it comes with a small manual so you can read directions on how exactly to fix something-especially handy if you are not mechanically inclined. It is a little heavy though but definitely worth the little extra weight for piece of mind.

Comments about Airhead Rechargeable 12V Air Pump:
I use this product to inflate my Aiherd 3 person tube. It does so in about 2-3 minutes. It has a charge life of about 20 minutes which is more than enough to inflate 2-3 tubes if needed.
My only complaint is that it takes 8 hours to do a full charge (12 hour initially). Of course once you remember to plug it in the night before you're OK. But if you forget you may have some issues. For that reason I bought DC powered one that I can connect to my ca's battery if needed.
Don't let the price fool you, this is a great product.

Comcast Rolls Out Xfinity Security into Six More Markets
Energy-saving lighting and thermostat control remain add-ons.
Cable giant Comcast is expanding its fledgling Xfinity Home Security service into six additional U.S. market areas.
The 24/7 security monitoring service was first unveiled in Houston in mid-2010 and is now being rolled out in parts of Philadelphia; Portland, Ore.; Jacksonville, Fla.; Sarasota/Naples, Fla.; Chattanooga, Tenn.; and Nashville. Additional markets will be introduced on a rolling basis.
Comcast is selling the Xfinity Home Security Preferred Package for $40 per month. The package includes four window/door sensors, motion detector, wireless keypad, keychain remote and a touchscreen controller. Energy management features such as wireless control of thermostats and some lights via plug-in lighting/appliance modules is extra. (See price listings below.)
The Preferred Package also includes mobile access via a free iPhone app, fire protection (equipment not included), email and text alerts, full touchscreen access, and video monitoring with cameras as an option. The Basic system, priced at $30, does not include these features, and comes with only two window/door sensors, motion detector and wireless keypad. Both packages offer cellular backup in the case of power outages.
The optional lighting and thermostat control allows users to program set times for lights to go on or off and for heating or cooling to reach predetermined set-points. The lights and thermostat can also be tied to the arm and disarm functions of the security system, so lights will go off and the thermostat set back as you leave the house to save energy.
As for installation, currently Xfinity is running an introductory offer for $199.
More Energy Management to Come?
Comcast is adding features and functions to Xfinity Home Security because "we didn't want to come out with a plain vanilla security system," says Comcast spokesman Charlie Douglas. He says some wireless light switches and in-wall electrical outlets that connect to the system will likely be introduced in the future, and there may be some energy monitoring functions and sharing of data so users can view neighborhood electricity consumption patterns.
The systems being rolled out in the new markets are using the former uControl platform, now owned by iControl (and called iControl SMA) and ZigBee's wireless communication technology. Those in the initial Houston rollout will continue to use a different iControl platform using Z-Wave and may eventually be switched over to the other platform, says Douglas.
Comcast says Xfinity Home Security customers will also be eligible to receive up to a 20 percent discount on their homeowners' insurance.
Here are the packages, as reported by our sister site, CEPro.com:
Basic security system with security sensors and cellular communications
Security, including cellular, plus basic automation including lighting and thermostat control; remote monitoring and control via web browser or smartphone, as well as email and text alerts.
Preferred with Video—$45/month
Preferred system plus support for up to five IP surveillance cameras.
Additional wireless devices (installed) cost:
- Motion sensor—$150
- Door/window sensor—$70
- Video camera—$150 (or two for $199 during promotional period)
- Thermostat—$150
- Smoke detector—$150
- Lighting/appliance module—$90

Wake Up Progressives: the Trillion Dollar Coin Can Be Game-Changing!
Well, not really. But if you view the Trillion Dollar Coin (TDC) meme, as I do, as a short-hand for the more general idea of using Platinum Coin Seigniorage (PCS), then yes, it can change the whole political game for progressives if President Obama dares to use it.
Literal TDC proposals would solve the debt-ceiling, but they won't solve the larger problem of defeating the austerity politics that is so close to getting the cuts to social safety net and important discretionary government programs that austerians have long sought. PCS game-changer proposals are the ones calling for, or analyzing the impact of, PCS options aimed at paying off the national debt and covering anticipated federal deficit spending for some years.
PCS options of that kind change the game of fiscal politics by removing the issue of austerity from fiscal policy considerations. With this kind of PCS the national debt and the debt-to-GDP ratio go away as matters of concern. The focus of fiscal policy then becomes the impact of specific policies rather than some overall deficit or debt reducing target. The issue in fiscal policy then becomes public purpose. It becomes what specific impacts, including inflation, and full employment, are anticipated from passing specific legislation, and whether or not those impacts are in line with public purpose. But, when the national debt and the debt-to-GDP ration go away as matters of concern; then the issue of the deficit viewed as something that is draining a limited supply of financial resources goes away, also, because people will understand that using PCS to cover deficits ensures that the US Treasury can never run short of its own fiat currency.
I'm sorry to say that there are few posts of this kind, relatively speaking. I'll list and link to some of those posts later. But first I want to point to what some in the MSM blogosphere are saying right now. Read more about Wake Up Progressives: the Trillion Dollar Coin Can Be Game-Changing!

It appears the 2012-2013 South Coast Conference season will be another struggle for the Pasadena City College women's basketball team. Despite a current No. 11 ranking in the state (eighth in the Southland), the Lancers dropped to 2-3 in conference play as host Los Angeles Southwest College upset them, 84-81, Jan. 11.
The loss snapped PCC's 13-game winning streak over the Cougars, who last beat the Lancers more than a decade ago on Jan. 4, 2002 (61-50).
Pasadena (12-5) couldn't overcome the high scoring of LASW guard Cranesha Jennings, who tallied 31 points, including four 3-pointers and an outstanding 11-for-12 from the free throw line. The Cougars (6-8, 3-2) converted 30 of 47 free throws overall compared to 18 of 32 by the Lancers.
For PCC, point guard Shay Jackson (pictured) scored 19 of her team-high 23 points in the second half to try to keep her team in it. Jackson, who added seven assists, was 12-for-15 from the line.
Stella Ghazarian, a sophomore guard, added 15 points, including four first-half 3-point bombs. Freshman center Kaitlyn Parks contributed 10 points and six rebounds. Reserve frosh forward Sarah Jackson (seven rebounds), sophomore guard Sabrina Martinez, and starting forward Tyler Crockom each had seven points.
For LASW, Tinesha Duckworth turned in a double-double on 14 points and 11 rebounds. Fifty-one fouls were called on the two teams (25 on PCC).
The Lancers are on a three-game road trip and will play SCC contests this week at No. 14-ranked East Los Angeles College on Wednesday, Jan. 16 and at Los Angeles Trade Tech on Friday, Jan. 18. Both games have 6 p.m. tip-offs.

Hi, Ive only been diving in warm waters out in SE Asia (Thailand) and Ive been freezing at temps of 26-27 celcius. I even wear two shorty suits plus a long sleeve rash guard.

GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. -- Gwinnett County Police have identified the man whose body was found in a Lawrenceville neighborhood Tuesday night.
Detectives came across the body of 22-year-old Rashad Jones while they were responding to a report of shots fired in the River Stone subdivision at Bridge Walk Drive and Oak Road. His body was found near a tennis court.

Here comes the patch for the French version of ZCS 5.0.7.
I also added the automatic installation (prior user acceptance) of two zimlets that I find quite useful : the StarXpert save mail zimlet and the Google Translator zimlet (with the user interface translated to French).
Bug 28856 is still there (if the regular apostrophe is used in the "Carnet d'adresses" tab label, no label appears in the Preference tabbed window), so the patch still has the accent character instead of the apostrophe.
As usual, a zip or tgz file can be downloaded from Fichiers WHM (user "invite", password "invite").

Prince George's Home Preservation Workshop Expected to Draw Thousands
Wells Fargo & Company is hosting a free home preservation workshop in Prince George's County for Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Wells Fargo Financial and Wells Fargo Home Equity customers facing financial hardships.
The workshop will be held on Oct. 24 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Prince George's Sports and Learning Center – Field House. Parking is free.
Homeowners who have credit challenges that extend beyond their mortgage payments will be able to obtain assistance from Kaios, HomeFree USA and HOPE, local nonprofit credit counseling agencies.
The workshops are the latest in a series of assistance sessions Wells Fargo has conducted in the Capitol Beltway region.
According to the mortgage firm, about75 Wells Fargo home preservation specialist team members, including bilingual specialists, will be at the workshop to assist customers. The company said 13,000 homeowners are expected.
Homeowners whose loans are "under water" – meaning they owe more on their mortgage than the value of their home – may be eligible to refinance their loan based on certain criteria, including demonstrating ability to repay. Depending on eligibility for a loan modification, homeowners who are behind on their payments may also receive a principal reduction on their mortgage, the company said.
Participants are urged to register at www.wfhmevents.com/leadingthewayhome by Oct. 22 or call 1-800-405-8067 for more information.
"While our foreclosure and delinquency rates are below the industry average, and nationwide we have assisted more than 882,000 customers with modifications, our goal with this workshop is to help as many homeowners as possible avoid foreclosure," said Marie Day Hayes, Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Community Outreach Manager. "During these free workshops, Wells Fargo Home Mortgage customers who are faced with payment challenges will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with our home preservation specialists to explore the options available to them."
Where possible, borrowers will receive a decision on a workout, loan modification or other options, on site or shortly following the workshop. Options include Wells Fargo's own loan modification program and the federal government's Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP).
The company said this will be the 103rd Home Preservation Workshop Wells Fargo has hosted since September 2009, and the company has participated in more than 1,095 home preservation events during that time.

Ned Yost media session: August 20
Making the grade
When asked if he will evaluate his young squad any differently in tonight's game against the White Sox, a club competing for the division title, Yost said no, he doesn't add weight to games against certain teams. The manager expects everyone's best effort each and every day, and he will put his best team on the field every day as well. He believes he owes it to fellow division teams and the league to start his best lineup.
Same guy, new position
Yost doesn't know exactly what the future holds for converted pitcher Brian Anderson, but he has definitely noticed the former outfielder's success on the mound this year. Yost noted that Anderson's fastball can max out at 97 mph and he throws it comfortably at 95 mph. He thinks Anderson is making great progress and deserves a look, but he doesn't know if that opportunity will come in September or next spring.
? Yost said he moved Kila Ka'aihue to the three-hole in order to split up the lefties.
? Gil Meche left Kansas City today for his rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha. He should see action in tomorrow's game.

using zcs-3.0.0_M2_764.FC4 on FC4
I re-installed after fixing my host/domain configuration, Now thing are looking much better.
$ hostname
$ hostname --fqdn
$ domainname
My install was done with the domain as thekennysatnumber43.org, note no geriatrix as the install script defaulted to. The rest of the defaults I accepted. I set up two accounts on this domain, mike and janet. I am now able to send mails between these two accounts. I can also send mail from an external ISP account (email@example.com) and from my business address (firstname.lastname@example.com) and these are received successfully.
However when I try to send mail to either of these accounts I receive the output in the attached log portion (this is all the output relating to that message)
I have disabled DNS lookups as this seemed to be causing a different problem.
A separate query on the defaults. In my situation it would have defaulted my domain to geriatrix.thekennysatnumber43.org which was not being resolved by the external DNS system and if I left of the geriatrix on the address zimbra bounced it. How is this supposed to operate in a correctly configured environment?
But, once I get my outgoing mail working this looks like it is an unbelievably great product which I intend toe evangelize throughout South Africa.
Thanks guys!

Shippers demand creation of "jobs agenda"
August 10, 2011
U.S. shippers may be "breathing a sigh of relief" that unemployment numbers are taking a step in the right direction. But the world's largest retail trade association says much more needs to be done…and soon.
"As an industry that provides jobs to more than 40 million Americans, consumer confidence in our economy and our government could not be more crucial as retailers inch closer to the holiday season," said National Retail Federation President and CEO Matthew Shay.
In a statement to NRF members, he noted that now that the first chapter of the debt ceiling debate is behind us, retailers need Congress and the Administration to advance a strong jobs agenda that includes corporate tax reform, visa reform and passing the pending free trade agreements."?
According to the report, retailers added 26,000 jobs in July, second only to the health care industry.?? It also echoes many of the observations we made in our State of Logistics report.
"While positive retail jobs growth in July is another indicator that retailers are pulling their weight in this economic recovery, a strong jobs agenda would allow retailers to increase hiring on an even larger scale,"?Shay added.
