This BriefingsDirect thought leadership panel discussion comes to you in conjunction with The Open Group Conference held recently in Newport Beach, California. The conference focused on "big data -- the transformation we need to embrace today."
The panel of experts explores new trends and solutions in the area of risk management and analysis. Learn now how large enterprises are delivering better risk assessments and risk analysis, and discover how big data can be both an area to protect, but also used as a tool for better understanding and mitigating risks.
The panelists are Jack Freund, PhD, the Information Security Risk Assessment Manager at TIAA-CREF; Jack Jones, Principal of CXOWARE, and Jim Hietala, Vice President, Security for The Open Group. The discussion is moderated by Dana Gardner, Principal Analyst at Interarbor Solutions. [Disclosure: The Open Group is a sponsor of this and other BriefingsDirect podcasts.]
Jack Jones has more than nine years experience as a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), and is the inventor of the Factor Analysis Information Risk (FAIR) framework. Jack Freund has more than 14 years in enterprise IT experience, is a visiting professor at DeVry University, and chairs a risk-management subcommittee for ISACA.
Here are some excerpts:
Gardner: Why is the issue of risk analysis so prominent now? What's different from, say, five years ago?
Jones: The information security industry has struggled with getting the attention of and support from management and businesses for a long time, and it has finally come around to the fact that the executives care about loss exposure -- the likelihood of bad things happening and how bad those things are likely to be.
It's only when we speak in those terms of risk that we make sense to those executives. And once we do that, we begin to gain some credibility and traction in terms of getting things done.
Gardner: So we really need to talk about this in the terms that a business executive would appreciate, not necessarily an IT executive.
Effects on business
Jones: Absolutely. They're tired of hearing about vulnerabilities, hackers, and that sort of thing. It's only when we can talk in terms of the effect on the business that it makes sense to them.
Freund: The problem that we have as a profession, and I think it's a big problem, is that we have allowed ourselves to escape the natural trend that the other IT professionals have already taken.
There was a time, years ago, when you could code in the basement, and nobody cared much about what you were doing. But now, largely speaking, developers and systems administrators are very focused on meeting the goals of the organization.
Security has been allowed to miss that boat a little. We have been allowed to hide behind this aura of a protector and of an alerter of terrible things that could happen, without really tying ourselves to the problem that the organizations are facing and how can we help them succeed in what they're doing.
Hietala: There are certainly changes on the threat side of the landscape. Five years ago, you didn't really have hacktivism or this notion of an advanced persistent threat (APT). That highly skilled attacker taking aim at governments and large organizations didn't really exist -– or didn't exist to the degree it does today. So that has changed.
You also have big changes to the IT platform landscape, all of which bring new risks that organizations need to really think about. The mobility trend, the cloud trend, the big-data trend that we are talking about today, all of those things bring new risk to the organization.
As Jack Jones mentioned, business executives don't want to hear about, "I've got 15 vulnerabilities in the mobility part of my organization." They want to understand what's the risk of bad things happening because of mobility, what we're doing about it, and what's happening to risk over time.
So it's a combination of changes in the threats and attackers, as well as just changes to the IT landscape, that we have to take a different look at how we measure and present risk to the business.
Gardner: Because we're at a big-data conference, do you share my perception, Jack Jones, that big data can be a source of risk and vulnerability, but also the analytics and the business intelligence (BI) tools that we're employing with big data can be used to alert you to risks or provide a strong tool for better understanding your true risk setting or environment?
Crown jewels
Jones: You are absolutely right. You think of big data and, by definition, it's where your crown jewels, and everything that leads to crown jewels from an information perspective, are going to be found. It's like one-stop shopping for the bad guy, if you want to look at it in that context. It definitely needs to be protected. The architecture surrounding it and its integration across a lot of different platforms and such, can be leveraged and probably result in a complex landscape to try and secure.
There are a lot of ways into that data and such, but at least if you can leverage that same big data architecture, it's an approach to information security. With log data and other threat and vulnerability data and such, you should be able to make some significant gains in terms of how well-informed your analyses and your decisions are, based on that data.
Freund: If we fast-forward it five years, and this is even true today, a lot of people on the cutting edge of big data will tell you the problem isn't so much building everything together and figuring out what it can do. They are going to tell you that the problem is what we do once we figure out everything that we have. This is the problem that we have traditionally had on a much smaller scale in information security. When everything is important, nothing is important.
Gardner: What parts of organizations aren't being assessed for risk and should be?
Freund: The big problem that exist largely today in the way that risk assessments are done, is the focus on labels. We want to quickly address the low, medium, and high things and know where they are. But the problem is that there are inherent problems in the way that we think about those labels, without doing any of the analysis legwork.
We end up with these very long lists of horrible, terrible things that can be done to us in all sorts of different ways, without any relevance to the overall business of the organization.
I think that's what's really missing is that true analysis. If the system goes offline, do we lose money? If the system becomes compromised, what are the cost-accounting things that will happen that allow us to figure out how much money we're going to lose.
That analysis work is largely missing. That's the gap. The gap is if the control is not in place, then there's a risk that must be addressed in some fashion. So we end up with these very long lists of horrible, terrible things that can be done to us in all sorts of different ways, without any relevance to the overall business of the organization.
Every day, our organizations are out there selling products, offering services, which is and of itself, its own risky venture. So tying what we do from an information security perspective to that is critical for not just the success of the organization, but the success of our profession.
Risk implications
Jones: Businesses have been making these decisions, chasing the opportunity, but generally, without any clear understanding of the risk implications, at least from the information security perspective. They will have us in the corner screaming and throwing red flags in there, and talking about vulnerabilities and threats from one thing or another.
But, we come to the table with red, yellow, and green indicators, and on the other side of the table, they've got numbers. Well, here is what we expect to earn in revenue from this initiative, and the information security people are saying it's crazy. How do you normalize the quantitative revenue gain versus red, yellow, and green?
Gardner: Jim Hietala, do you see it in the same red, yellow, green or are there some other frameworks or standard methodologies that The Open Group is looking at to make this a bit more of a science?
Hietala: Probably four years ago, we published what we call the Risk Taxonomy Standard which is based upon Factor Analysis Information Risk (FAIR), the management framework that Jack Jones invented. So, we're big believers in bringing that level of precision to doing risk analysis. Having just gone through training for FAIR myself, as part of the standards effort that we're doing around certification, I can say that it really brings a level of precision and a depth of analysis to risk analysis that's been lacking frequently in IT security and risk management.
In order to be successful sitting between these two groups, you have to be able to speak the language of both of those groups.
Gardner: Whose job should this fall under? Who is wearing the white hat in the company and can rally the forces of good and make all the bad things managed?
Freund: The profession of IT risk management is changing. That profession will have to sit between the business and information security inclusive of all the other IT functions that make that happen.
In order to be successful sitting between these two groups, you have to be able to speak the language of both of those groups. You have to be able to understand profit and loss and capital expenditure on the business side. On the IT risk side, you have to be technical enough to do all those sorts of things.
But I think the sum total of those two things is probably only about 50 percent of the job of IT risk management today. The other 50 percent is communication. Finding ways to translate that language and to understand the needs and concerns of each side of that relationship is really the job of IT risk management.
To answer your question, I think it's absolutely the job of IT risk management to do that. From my own experiences with the FAIR framework, I can say that using FAIR is the Rosetta Stone for speaking between those two groups.
Necessary tools
It gives you the tools necessary to speak in the insurance and risk terms that business appreciate. And it gives you the ability to be as technical and just nerdy, if you will, as you need to be in order to talk to IT security and the other IT functions in order to make sure everybody is on the same page and everyone feels like their concerns are represented in the risk-assessment functions that are happening.
Gardner: How do you know if you're doing it right? How do you know if you're moving from yellow to green, instead of to red?
Becoming very knowledgeable about the risk posture and the risk tolerance of the organization is a key.
Freund: There are a couple of things in that question. The first is there's this inherent assumption in a lot of organizations that we need to move from yellow to green, and that may not be the case. So, becoming very knowledgeable about the risk posture and the risk tolerance of the organization is a key.
That's part of the official mindset of IT security. When you graduate an information security person today, they are minted knowing that there are a lot of bad things out there, and their goal in life is to reduce them. But, that may not be the case. The case may very well be that things are okay now, but we have bigger things to fry over here that we're going to focus on. So, that's one thing.
The second thing, and it's a very good question, is how we know that we're getting better? How do we trend that over time? Overall, measuring that value for the organization has to be able to show a reduction of a risk or at least reduction of risk to the risk-tolerance levels of the organization.
Calculating and understanding that requires something that I always phrase as we have to become comfortable with uncertainty. When you are talking about risk in general, you're talking about forward-looking statements about things that may or may not happen. So, becoming comfortable with the fact that they may or may not happen means that when you measure them today, you have to be willing to be a little bit squishy in how you're representing that.
In FAIR and in other academic works, they talk about using ranges to do that. So, things like high, medium ,and low, could be represented in terms of a minimum, maximum, and most likely. And that tends to be very, very effective. People can respond to that fairly well.
Gathering data
Jones: With regard to the data sources, there are a lot of people out there doing these sorts of studies, gathering data. The problem that's hamstringing that effort is the lack of a common set of definitions, nomenclature, and even taxonomy around the problem itself.
You will have one study that will have defined threat, vulnerability, or whatever differently from some other study, and so the data can't be normalized. It really harms the utility of it. I see data out there and I think, "That looks like that can be really useful." But, I hesitate to use it because I don't understand. They don't publish their definitions, approach, and how they went after it.
There's just so much superficial thinking in the profession on this that we now have dug under the covers. Too often, I run into stuff that just can't be defended. It doesn't make sense, and therefore the data can't be used. It's an unfortunate situation.
I do think we're heading in a positive direction. FAIR can provide a normalizing structure for that sort of thing. The VERIS framework, which by the way, is also derived in part from FAIR, also has gained real attraction in terms of the quality of the research they have done and the data they're generating. We're headed in the right direction, but we've got a long way to go.
Gardner: I'm curious how prevalent cyber insurance is, and is that going to be a leveling effect in the industry where people speak a common language -- the equivalent of actuarial tables, but for security in enterprise and cyber security?
Jones: One would dream and hope, but at this point, what I've seen out there in terms of the basis on which insurance companies are setting their premiums and such is essentially the same old "risk assessment" stuff that the industry has been doing poorly for years. It's not based on data or any real analysis per se, at least what I've run into. What they do is set their premiums high to buffer themselves and typically cover as few things as possible. The question of how much value it's providing the customers becomes a problem.
Looking to the future
Gardner: What's the future of risk management, and what does the cloud trend bring to the table?
Hietala: I'd start with a maxim that comes out of the financial services industry, which is that you can outsource the function, but you still own the risk. That's an unfortunate reality. You can throw things out in the cloud, but it doesn't absolve you from understanding your risk and then doing things to manage it to transfer it if there's insurance or whatever the case may be.
That's just a reality. Organizations in the risky world we live in are going to have to get more serious about doing effective risk analysis. From The Open Group standpoint, we see this as an opportunity area.
Risk is a system of systems. There are a series of pressures that are applied, and a series of levers that are thrown in order to release that sort of pressure.
As I mentioned, we've standardized the taxonomy piece of the Factor Analysis Information Risk (FAIR) framework. And we really see an opportunity around the profession going forward to help the risk-analysis community by further standardizing FAIR and launching a certification program for a FAIR-certified risk analyst. That's in demand from large organizations that are looking for evidence that people understand how to apply FAIR and use it in doing risk analyses.
Freund: I always try to consider things as they exist within other systems. Risk is a system of systems. There are a series of pressures that are applied, and a series of levers that are thrown in order to release that sort of pressure.
Risk will always be owned by the organization that is offering that service. If we decide at some point that we can move to the cloud and all these other things, we need to look to the legal system. There is a series of pressures that they are going to apply, and who is going to own that, and how that plays itself out.
If we look to the Europeans and the way that they're managing risk and compliance, they're still as strict as we in United States think that they may be about things, but there's still a lot of leeway in a lot of the ways that laws are written. You're still being asked to do things that are reasonable. You're still being asked to do things that are standard for your industry. But, we'd still like the ability to know what that is, and I don't think that's going to go away anytime soon.
Judgment calls
We're still going to have to make judgment calls. We're still going to have to do 100 things with a budget for 10 things. Whenever that happens, you have to make a judgment call. What's the most important thing that I care about? And that's why risk management exists, because there's a certain series of things that we have to deal with. We don't have the resources to do them all, and I don't think that's going to change over time. Regardless of whether the landscape changes, that's the one that remains true.
Jones: If we were to take a snapshot at any given point in time of an organization's loss exposure, how much risk they have right then, that's a lagging indicator of the decisions they've made in the past, and their ability to execute against those decisions.
We can do some great root-cause analysis around that and ask how we got there. But, we can also turn that coin around and ask how good we are at making well-informed decisions, and then executing against them, the asking what that implies from a risk perspective downstream.
If we understand the relationship between our current state, and past and future states, we have those linkages defined, especially, if we have an analytic framework underneath it. We can do some marvelous what-if analysis.
We're still going to have to make judgment calls. We're still going to have to do 100 things with a budget for 10 things.
What if this variable changed in our landscape? Let's run a few thousand Monte Carlo simulations against that and see what comes up. What does that look like? Well, then let's change this other variable and then see which combination of dials, when we turn them, make us most robust to change in our landscape.
But again, we can't begin to get there, until we have this foundational set of definitions, frameworks, and such to do that sort of analysis. That's what we're doing with the Factor Analysis Information Risk (FAIR) framework, but without some sort of framework like that, there's no way you can get there.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

My suitcase has been destroyed -beyond any repair . That was mid August and until now I am still emaling them. They are very good in ignoring-the best quality. Offered amount that is 40% less then originally Samsonite. I provided them with all documents requested but still haven't got any compesation at all. I send few email before getting respond. Just a waste of time and money. Think twice before book with them.

Serb President guarantees Eurovision safety

Hmm, this is now the third story on PinkNews about the Eurovision/Obraz homophobic threats story. But something seems to be missing?What exactly did this president of Obraz say?
I think its absolutely ridiculous, with the homophobia in Serbia. I currently live in the United states and have to not only pretend I am straight when i re-visit the country I was born in, but I also have to take extra security measures. People always know where I am going and I check in often with my family. I am fearful of someone acting out in violent way just because they suspect something, different, about me. What makes it even worse is I also have to stand for the criticism for the fact I am a Bosnian-Serb, I am a proud American, and a closeted member of the gay community.
typically serbian gay organization managed to "forget" to mention the only lesbian cafe in belgrade.

BJYM meets President Patil on Afzal Guru issue
New Delhi: With J&K Assembly slated to
discuss a resolution seeking clemency for Parliament attack
convict Afzal Guru, a BJP youth wing delegation on Monday met the
President and said the death sentence awarded to the terrorist
should be carried out or it would set a bad precedent.
Bhartiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) chief Anurag
Thakur led the delegation which met President Pratibha Patil.
BJP national secretary Varun Gandhi expressed his views on the
issue on his Twitter handle, saying, "Vote on Afzal Guru
sentence an instance of partisan politics. A national cause
has been irresponsibly turned into a bitterly divisive
Thakur insisted that the debate in itself would be a
"travesty of our democracy and judicial process".
He said this would set a bad precedent if convicted
terrorists could avoid the penalties laid down in our criminal
justice system.
The Jammu and Kashmir unit of BJP today announced
state-wide protests on September 28, when the J-K Assembly is
set to discuss and vote on a resolution against the death
sentence given to Guru by the Supreme Court in the December
13, 2001 terror attack. His mercy petition has already been
rejected by the President.
The Tamil Nadu Assembly had recently passed a
resolution against the death sentence given to three persons
involved in the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv
After meeting the President, Thakur said, "A vote on this
issue would trivialise the sacrifices of the men and women who
died on that day as well as those who have suffered in other
acts of terrorism.
"It would hurt the morale of our security forces which
continue to fight against the menace of terrorism. It would
further strengthen the resolve of the terrorist groups working
against India."

Defending healthy kauri and seeing dieback disease become an official pest have topped the city's environmental to-do list.
Under a new draft strategy, off-shore islands in the Hauraki Gulf and the Hunua Ranges will become high priority protection areas.
More details about how kauri dieback disease spreads will be offered to the public and increased support for science and research is planned.
The Draft Auckland Kauri Dieback Management Strategy seeks to regulate the spread of the disease across public and private land.
Mapping across Auckland will show how far dieback disease has travelled and which areas need the most immediate help from council.
But kauri dieback disease is already spreading across Auckland forests.
At least 3500 hectares of kauri in the Waitakere Ranges are infected making it the most contaminated area in the country.
The impact of kauri dieback disease on New Zealand's tourism industry has been estimated up to $48 million a year as of 2013, Auckland Council says.
Kauri also have the potential to store up to 1000 tonnes of carbon per hectare.
Loss of any kauri forest "could result in carbon release valued in 2013 at up to $162.5m", according to a council report.
Waitakere Ranges Protection Society president John Edgar says "it's about time" that kauri dieback is recognised as an official pest.
"I hope it doesn't take too long and it's a good step.
"More and more trees are being affected. More funding to keep people better educated will be needed."
In May, the Government pledged $26.5m over the next four years to fight the disease.
Dieback has also spread to Great Barrier Island, several bush areas north of Auckland and Awhitu.
Albert-Eden-Roskill councillor Christine Fletcher says protecting Auckland's remaining kauri is critical.
"This is one area we can't cut funds from," she says.
"This is a health issue, for me. The health of our forests.
"The reality is the kauri we have are dying. It's visible and I think we have . . . a real responsibility to do the science and research," Fletcher says.
Fletcher is on the Environment, Climate Change and Natural Heritage Committee, which is spearheading the strategy.
A cost-benefit analysis of the impact of dieback is needed before the Government will officially recognise the disease as a pest.
But the council is determined to have it recognised under the Biosecurity Act.
Fletcher says the council will work with its biosecurity department, led by former Department of Conservation area manager Brett Butland, to ensure everything is done to save the city's kauri.
The council has already closed 13 protection zones in the Waitakere Ranges to the public as well as upgraded tracks to prevent the spread of the disease.
A full range of cost options for the management of dieback across Auckland is being investigated.
The plan will be reviewed each year.
The draft has been sent to the Regional Strategy and Policy Committee to be signed off.

The Whitefish Bay High School football program will honor Blue Duke players who have made the NFL with a ceremony at 4 p.m. Tuesday outside of the weightroom on the second floor of the fieldhouse.
Then and there the framed and professionally mounted jersies of Randy Dean (former quarterback of the New York Giants), Mike Schneck (former Pro Bowl long snapper who played with Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Atlanta); and current New York Jets linebacker Nick Bellore, will be unveiled.
It will henceforth be known as Bay's "Pro Football Wall of Fame."
Blue Duke football coach Jim Tietjen is hoping to have all three former Bay stars on hand for the ceremony that will include the high school team as well as players from the Blue Dukes' youth program.

Super Rugby
In case you missed the fact, there were a few weeks this summer when rugby wasn't being played.
OPINION: Hope you enjoyed the break, and just before we're fully engulfed by Super Rugby, which starts for real in 12 days time, here's a wish list for 2014.
The Chiefs to finally get some respect. At some point it has to dawn on the pundits that Dave Rennie and his men have found the secret to Super Rugby. Who can possibly not see they're not a one-man Sonny Bill band, but a team with talent from front to the back, a dynamic forward leader in Liam Messam, the outstanding super rugby first-five of the past two years in Aaron Cruden, and the sort of team spirit that took the Crusaders to the first, and so far only, title threepeat.
Less Alan Shearer more Kieran Read. There's something distasteful about a try scorer running to the adoring crowd, rather than his wrung-out mates who have scrapped for the ball Mr Fabulous has run over the line. No, I'm not advocating a return to the days when All Blacks walked back after a try looking embarrassed, but body language tells its own story, and air kissing the crowd before high fiving your team-mates spells dickhead in my book.
Dan Carter to get to the end of the year injury free. No All Black works more diligently on being fit and ready. He didn't get those Jockey ads by letting himself get flabby in the off-season. But by the end of 2013 you had a sick feeling time is creeping up on our greatest ever first-five. If he's going to play in a final at a World Cup, he needs a good run, and it needs to start this year.
Jerome Kaino to make a storming comeback. Let's be honest. There's no such thing as too many big, mean, hard-hitting All Black loose forwards.
World rugby to take concussion more seriously. Did you feel just a little queasy when you read that Craig Clarke, one of the original good buggers in rugby, has had concussion 10 times in the last 22 months? Concussion is actually a brain injury, and you'll convince me it's given its due by the IRB when we don't see a dazed George Smith staggering off the field in a test, and then 10 minutes later smacking into tackles again. I often disagree with fellow Fairfax columnist Mark Reason, but if you missed his story on concussion last month I'd urge you to check it out at http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/opinion/9625319/Rea-son-Education-is-way-ahead-on-concussion.
The IRB to do the right thing by Colin Meads. The IRB started a Hall of Fame in 2006. Without being too jingoistic they haven't exactly broken their necks to rush All Blacks into the fold. But the real middle finger to New Zealand footy is the fact Colin Meads isn't one of inductees. If you believe the IRB PR flacks who say the fact he was once ordered off in a test match because a kick he made went near (but didn't touch) a Scottish halfback, don't forget to leave the window open for the Tooth Fairy. Pinetree's 77 years old guys, and although he's in good nick, it'd be nice to give him his due while he can still comfortably fly to Dublin for the award.
A big super rugby season for Richie McCaw. "He just keeps putting himself into dark places on the field," says a team-mate, and for a return to the winner's circle for my sentimental favourites, the Crusaders, they need Richie finding those places in their jersey. To be at the 2015 World Cup commonsense says he'll need a break in next year's super competition. How great would a last super footy hurrah be this year?

Union: CAL inaction cause of sick-out
(Trinidad Express) Two days after pilot sick-out action caused chaos and cancellations for Caribbean Airlines Ltd, the majority recognised union Trinidad and Tobago Airline Pilots Association (TTALPA) finally released a statement yesterday on the matter to say it cannot sanction industrial action.
The union said it "understood fully the frustration of its individual members" and had pointed these concerns out to CAL on "numerous occasions".
"TTALPA has never demanded anything of CAL and has utilised a non-confrontational approach through dialogue, which over the years has been rewarded with broken promises and procrastination," the union said.
It said CAL is choosing to avoid the fact that its inaction is the major cause of these events and instead laid the blame on pilots.
"Despite their claims, CAL has not been dealing with us in good faith, which has caused us to register our issues with the Labour Ministry as Trade Disputes. Pilots have, however, continued to exercise extreme patience and professionalism," TTALPA said.
The union said that as of Wednesday, it had reached a partial agreement on some of the more serious issues, with further meetings scheduled for the month with CAL.
"TTALPA assures the travelling public that we will continue to deal with CAL's management transparently and in good faith. It is our expectation that CAL will honour its commitments," it said.

WASHINGTON, (Reuters) – Democratic U.S. presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders brought his firebrand rhetoric back to the floor of the Senate yesterday to condemn a White House-backed bill on Puerto Rico's financial crisis as "colonialism at its worst." Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist who turned an unlikely presidential bid into a political movement to combat inequality, warned that legislation due for a crucial Senate vote on Wednesday would subject Puerto Rico to Republican trickle-down economics and favor "vulture capitalists" at the expense of the island's increasingly impoverished population.

Nah, it's just horror games and stuff I listen to. I am a horror buff. I read creepy pastas, listen to them, play horror games like silent hill (the first three), amnesia, and others that don't really go for combat but for psychological scares where you are unarmed, or maybe armed and you can't stop the shadows from grabbing you and dragging you into a dark dimension.
Anyway, that kind of stuff always got my interest!
That's a bit too specific to be imagination....do you need a hug? xD
Yay. I wouldn't call arkham very psychological. Something that is psychological to me is when you are in a dark room and you are trying to escape and you can hear all kinds of noises around you like someone breathing down your neck and you see images just in the corner of your eye and as time progresses you begin to grow paranoid. You claw desperately at the walls and then you hear more sounds, of a voice. You scream and thrash on the ground and in desperation to get free you grab a glass shard and drag it across your wrist and let the darkness take your mind.
That is horror to me. but still, that is an interesting concept.
No Guns at all, strictly Pokemon attacks.
Think more Arkham Asylum if you know that game.
More on the psychological side.
Is this going to be more 'psychological kind, silent hill type' or is it going to be 'guns, guns, and guns' kind of rp?
Yeah that's the plan, it's gonna be quite dark and takes the idea of Pokemon being ''Insane Criminals''. I'll say no more then that!
Would be great to have a player such as yourself on board when we get kicking!
Pokemon Asylum? That sounds really interesting! Is it a horror based rp?

'I don't know why you are in here': Helen Flanagan breaks down in tears over camp criticism after quitting FIFTH Bushtucker Trial... before it's even begun on I'm A Celeb
Not even knowing that there were eleven hungry people waiting for her back at camp could persuade Helen Flanagan to complete a Bushtucker Trial.
In tonight's episode, viewers saw the ex-Coronation Street star shout 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!' before the trial, dubbed Rodent Run, began.
The tearful actress then returned to camp, indignant that she had done her best, and confident that her ravenous peers would not be annoyed with her.
Chicken run: Helen Flanagan quit the Rodent Run Bushtucker Trial before it had even begun
Let down: Helen is becoming hated by viewers as she repeatedly wimps out of Bushtucker Trials
This was the 22-year old actress' fifth Bushtucker Trial, and it's clearly not getting any easier for the fragile young woman.
At the start of the episode, she was seen admitting that thinking about the impending trial had left her 'feeling deflated.'
But, if she wanted sympathy from her camp mates, she didn't get it as they decided that perhaps a different approach would help motivate her to try harder to bring back some meals for them.
As far as she got: Helen put the goggles on, but soon after was asking to quit the trial
Cowardly: Helen has so far failed at every Bushtucker Trial she's been put up for
Eastenders actress Charlie Brooks said: 'She goes out feeling negative - maybe that's not going to be a good thing for the trial, but to be honest she's gone out feeling positive and not done it so maybe the opposite will work.
'We've all tried little pep talks and words of encouragement but I don't know how much any of it goes in really.'
Professional darts player Eric Bristow agreed, saying: 'I'm not bothering anymore to try and say good luck because it just goes in one ear and out the other.'
'I feel really panicked': Helen didn't like the look of the task apparatus from the start
Sorry guys: Helen had to tell her camp mates that she had scored no stars for them
However, Doctor Who actor Colin Baker joked, 'It's very good for me to not eat then I lose more weight.'
When she arrived at the scene of the trial, Ant and Dec tried to coax the freaked out star in to trying harder than usual.
She told him: ''I'm not feeling this, I have given it 100%, what more can I give?
will have a look (at the trial), obviously I really want to give
everything a go and I'm not a quitter at all, but if I think absolutely
no I've had enough, then I've had enough.'
The task involved a giant jungle hamster cage, which was split into five areas, two crawl- through tunnels, a house, a bathing tub and a hamster's wheel.
Each area contained stars – twelve in total - and a host of jungle critters, including, rats, meal worms, green ants and spiders.
Pensive: Helen is really struggling with jungle life and is often crying to her camp mates
Girls united: Ashley Roberts and Nadine Torres have been trying to support their young camp mate
The first aspect of the task was the hamster's wheel that Helen would have to run over for two minutes - this would lower stars from the ceiling, but they would wind back up if she stopped running.
Offering words of encouragement Ant said, 'think of it this way, the first trial you've done you lasted ten seconds, not great, then you got better and yesterday you got four stars. You forgot the rules and didn't use your mouth but you still got four stars.
'So you're going on a journey and you're getting better.'
After a few minutes, Helen agreed to attempt the trial and headed into the hamster's wheel.
Dec reassured her, saying: 'You'll be fine, we'll talk you through it. You can do this Helen.'
But when she entered the wheel Helen then shouted, 'what the hell are you going to chuck on me? Oh my God. I don't think I want to do this.'
Despite encouragement from the presenters, Helen was still adamant she wouldn't try the trial.
She wailed: 'I'm serious I don't think I want to do this. I'm getting a bit scared I don't think I can do this. I'm serious, I'm really sorry to let everyone down. I just don't want to do it.'
Dec suggested, 'The first one is just meal worms. You have a real opportunity to get two stars here. Its pretty easy this one.'
Down in the dumps: Helen looked downcast in camp
Ant was quick to add: 'They don't bite, they might smell a bit but that's it.'
Despite encouragement from the kindly duo, Helen chickened out the moment the klaxon that signalled the start of the trial was sounded.
She shouted, 'I really don't want to this, please let me out, I'm freaking out. I'm really sorry I want to get out now.
'It's really panicking me and I'm really, really sorry. I don't want to let anyone down its just really freaking me out.'
'I don't want to let anyone down, the whole thing is completely freaking me out because it's my fifth trial. I know its only meal worms, its really working me up and I don't want to put myself through it and get absolutely terrified. Honestly I'm really scared.'
Some smiles: Nadine and Helen cracked a smile in camp - despite being really hungry
Again the presenters tried to tell her that there were easy stars on offer if she had just tried, but she refused to listen.
When asked how she thought her fellow camp mates will react, Helen replied, 'I'm just going to be honest and tell them that I haven't been able to get my head around it. I don't want to upset anyone or let anyone down but this is how I feel and I don't want to do it. I've absolutely had enough of trials.'
She returned to camp and the disappointment of her hungry campmates.
Eric asked Helen why she was even on the show, given her complete inability to handle the bugs and creepy crawlies.
He asked her: 'I don'tknow why you're in here if you don't like insects and bugs and animals and thinks like that and you come into a jungle. What did you think you were going to do in here, drink milkshakes?'

The dividing line between developers and IT operations used to be distinct. Developers were responsible for adding new features securely, but it was IT operations who had responsibility for infrastructure and network security. For the most part, developers didn't have to think too much about the wider security context. With the advent of the cloud, and of devops, things changed radically. more»
Over the past two weeks Andrew Lerner, Vice President in Gartner Research covering enterprise networking products, has put out two successive blogs that raise really interesting questions about the changing world of network management in an increasingly cloud-centric world.

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) have been picking up the pace as of late.

Companies are no longer afraid of the cloud. Big talk about security and performance issues has dwindled to small voices as enterprises and SMBs alike adopt cloud services to empower their global impact. Big cloud benefits, however -- agility, scalability and on-demand access -- are the result of a thoughtful, well-planned move from on-site servers to off-site resources. Here are four key tips for a soft cloud landing. more»
Service providers have traditionally organised their operations around different technology domains. The responsible teams have been staffed with specialists looking after routing, network services, security and various other functional areas. Over time, organizations like this have had the tendency to transform into loosely tied silos with limited interaction between the different teams. more»
Data may be moving to the cloud, but understanding the physical geography underlying the cloud is becoming increasingly critical. October's decision by the European Court of Justice, striking down key portions of the Safe Harbor rules that some companies had relied on to legally transfer personal data between Europe and the U.S., was only the latest example of the regulatory uncertainty involved in cross-border data flows. While Internet companies have begun to address challenges at the static geographic points where data is resident, understanding the actual paths that data travels is an important and sometimes overlooked part of the compliance analysis. more»
