The music of Cole Porter was brought to life in Chalmette recently when The Performing Arts Academy of St. Bernard performed Anything Goes at the Chalmette High School Cultural Arts Center. For 13 years, the Academy has served as a summer training ground for students, introducing them to concepts such as character development, stage craft, costume design, set construction as well as vocal and dance techniques.
Arianna Cassar, who served as the artistic director for the production, said the program was all about teamwork. "Collaboration is essential to the success of all things educational and theatrical," she said.
Other members of the artistic team included Music Director Annelise Cassar, Producer Charles Cassar, and Costume Designer Pam Cassar. Fred Hebert served as the Technical Director for the production while Briana Acosta served as the Assistant Technical Director.
Over 50 former and current students of St. Bernard Parish also took part in various aspects of the production, appearing on stage, in the orchestra pit, in the tech booth, in the costume shop, or as stage crew.
The music and dance numbers were upbeat, but challenging. Arianna Cassar and her team at the Academy make it even more so by double casting many lead characters. While this gives more students the opportunity to perform, it also makes the four-week rehearsal process intense.
Tiffany Treadaway and Scarlett Saizan shared the lead role of the vampish, Reno Sweeney, while Julie Montalbano and Caroline Boudreaux played the debutant, Hope Harcourt. Daniel Barber starred as the Wall Street broker, Billy Crocker while Wendell Cruice portrayed Crocker's rival, the wealthy Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. Others in lead roles included Brittany Calecas and Kiersten Wegmann as Evangeline Harcourt, Dylan Fuselier and Ryan Morrison as Elisha Whitney, Michaela Kramer and Lily Zwank as Erma and Alexander Crowson and Aaron Chenevert as
Moon Face Martin.
Special credit also needs to go to Box Office Manager Robin Calecas. While state of the art in nearly every way, the Cultural Arts Center does not have the capacity for online ticket purchasing, so Calecas was responsible for selling and organizing the nearly 2,000 tickets available for the run of the show.
Kudos also go to the members of the orchestra and costume team for their contributions to the production who brought the sound and the look of Cole Porter to the stage. Audience members enjoyed the toe-tapping tunes and the fast and fun feel of this comedic romance.
Cassar said directing "Anything Goes: was a wonderful experience, but she said the best part of her involvement was mentoring the members of her cast.
"In addition to being excellent performers, they are exceptional people as well," Cassar said.

Scottish Swimming announces Forbes Dunlop as new Chief Executive Officer
As well as forging strong networks and relationships across a wide range of sport at both Scottish and British level, Dunlop has a deep understanding of sports governing bodies and is delighted to lead Scottish Swimming into a successful future.
Dunlop said of his appointment,
'I am thrilled to be offered this opportunity and it is going to be a real privilege to lead the team at Scottish Swimming. I am very much looking forward to getting into post and meeting and working with the partner organisations, volunteers, coaches, swimmers and clubs that are critical to the on- going success of swimming in Scotland.'
Dunlop has extensive experience of swimming, not least of all having swum for Scotland on many occasions during the 1990s. He has also taught, coached and tutored swimming coach education courses and was part of the team that helped secure the National Swimming Academy at the University of Stirling as a location for one of British Swimming's Intensive Training Centres.
Dunlop has served on the Board of Directors, recently as Chairman, of the British Paralympic Performance Services in the lead into the 2012 Paralympic Games.
Maureen Campbell, Chair of the Scottish Swimming Board, is pleased about the appointment: 'Forbes has demonstrated the leadership, experiences and qualities that Scottish Swimming require to ensure optimal delivery in all aspects come 2014, coupled with the vision and innovation to develop and implement Scottish Swimming's next strategic plan. With a clear understanding of governing bodies like Scottish Swimming I believe that he has the right set of skills and experience to lead the organisation into and through its next exciting period of development, and I am delighted to welcome him to the team on behalf of the Scottish Swimming staff, board and council.'
Dunlop leaves his current role as Head of Sporting Pathways at sportscotland to take up post in the New Year, succeeding Ashley Howard, who left Scottish Swimming after eight successful years on 30 November to relocate to Canada. Dunlop has held roles at sportscotland since 2002, including Lead Manager Achieving Excellence from 2004 – 2009 and Partnership Manager, Achieving Excellence from 2002 – 2004.
Stewart Harris, CEO sportscotland commented,
'Forbes Dunlop has made a tremendous 10 year contribution to the development of sportscotland towards being a world class organisation. We look forward to working with Forbes and his new team to take Scottish Swimming to the next level with Glasgow 2014 the first destination on that journey.'

Kale is a bit bitter. I find that adding some acid minimizes the bitter flavor.
I like the idea of kale a lot but when steamed or sauteed it seems really bitter to me.
Anyone experienced this too, and have a solution? I haven't really tried anything but perhaps adding a drop of stevia might help.
For lunch I had my home-made meatballs (yum) and TJ's putanesca sauce over a plate of steamed kale. The sauce hid the kale flavor fairly well but not enough.
Kale is a bit bitter. I find that adding some acid minimizes the bitter flavor.
Started PB late 2008, lost 50 lbs by late 2009. Have been plateaued, but that thing may just be biting the dust: more on that later.
I always thought Kale was very bitter - then I discovered that I had been eating big, mature leaves. The first time I tried the young leaves, they wern't bitter at all and I ate them raw with nothing on them (must've been craving it lol )
For the mature leaves, I like to make Kale chips or this salad(if you're not scared of fat)
The Raw Chef: Wilted Kale Salad with a Creamy Chipotle Dressing
You can leave out the hemp seeds if you hate or just don't buy - it tastes fine without.
I don't use as much chipotle pepper, I grind up the whole ones and put in a teaspoon before blending and tasting. I'm a spice weenie.
I do not use 2 Tablespoons of salt to wilt the kale - it's WAY too salty for me. I start with only sprinkling some salt and crushing with my hands. You'll know if it needs more salt, because it won't wilt well.
I always add extra tomatoes - cuz I love the sweetness with the spicy - so good.
Kale is very bitter. I love bitter. It's one of the strongest flavors around, so I embrace it. Seriously, it's much easier to learn to like bitter things than it is to make bitter things not bitter. But steaming or stir-frying do a pretty good job of "improving" the flavor of bitter greens. I eat them both ways to maximize the nutritional yield.
Kale pretty much sucks.
You lousy kids! Get off my savannah!
Good feedback folks!
@tangentrider, I assume you mean something like vinegar for acid. Have to think about that some more, i.e. how to use in a recipe.
@Lily Marie, good point about the age of the leaves, and I think I have noticed before that younger leaves taste better. I will check out the recipe in a minute.
@Knifegill, I hear ya on embracing bitter. I can get into that mindset some times, just not there now.
Anyone think that adding "sugar" like stevia to a sauce on top of kale might mask the bitterness? I have yet to try this.

Practice note: Contribution of volunteerism to disaster risk reduction
In disaster response, the role and contribution of volunteerism is well recognized. In fact, when a disaster happens, volunteers are normally the first to act.
The impact of volunteers in disaster response can be tremendous, as the extent of damage – in terms of economic and human loss – is greatly influenced by the initial response to a disaster. In 1995, it was the massive voluntary response of citizens to the Hanshin earthquake in Japan that led to the International Year of Volunteers being held in 2001.
In turn, this fostered a greater understanding of the role of volunteers in the humanitarian field and in disaster risk reduction (DRR). The increased recognition of volunteerism in DRR was marked by UN General Assembly Resolution 57/106 'Follow up to the International Year of Volunteers' in 2003 and the Yokohama Strategy and Plan of Action for a Safer World in 1994.

Those forgotten mummies in the cellar must be cursedBreaking News
Forgotten until now. The recent theft and recovery of three statues from the basement have prompted antiquity officials in Egypt to redouble an effort already under way to complete the first comprehensive inventory of artifacts in the basement.
"For the last 100 years, curators sat down to drink tea, but they did not do their jobs," said Zahi Hawass, the general secretary of the Supreme Council of Antiquities. "How many artifacts are in the basement? It was awful."
Step through a small, Hobbit-sized door, down a steep flight of stairs and through a locked gate. The basement is a maze of arched passageways and bare light bulbs hanging from decaying wires. It is packed with wooden crates, hundreds of them, sometimes piled floor to ceiling.
Cobwebs cling to ancient pottery and tablets engraved with hieroglyphics. Six hundred coffins and 170 mummies have been found so far. No one knows what may have been stolen over the years. Last year, officials reported that 38 golden bracelets from Roman times had vanished from the basement, apparently six years earlier.
"It is an accumulation of 100 years of neglect," said Dr. Ali Radwan, a professor of Egyptology at Cairo University who took a recent tour of the basement. "It is not appropriate for a country like Egypt to have such miserable storage for its history."
The Egyptian Museum is a 104-year-old repository of the some the world's most famous antiquities. Inside, there are the mummified remains of pharaohs, like Ramses II, who died in 1212 B.C. There are the treasures of the young Pharaoh Tutankhamen, the golden chariot and the golden mask.
Built and designed by the French, the two-story building in central Tahrir Square has changed little over the decades. It remains crowded with an estimated 120,000 items, most of which have also never been properly inventoried, museum officials said. And even the exhibition areas can be haphazardly arranged: some of the labels date to colonial times, and some items are not labeled at all.

About This Book
"It all started when I told my friend Art I would meet him on the corner of Fifth and Fifty-Third. I didn't see him. So I asked a lady walking up the avenue, "Have you seen Art?" "MoMA?" asked the lady. "Uh . . . no, he's just a friend."
"Just down Fifty-Third Street here. In a beautiful new building. You can't miss it.""
When this address turns out to be the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, confusion and hilarity ensue. As the narrator continues looking for Art inside MoMA, he is introduced to well-known pieces of art such as Van Gogh's "The Starry Night," Matisse's "The Red Studio," as well as works by Picasso, Klee, Lichtenstein and others.
In a dynamic collaboration that features comical text and playful illustrations alongside full-color reproductions of the artwork, Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith give readers the perfect companion for a visit to MoMA, and an introduction to some of the world's best works of modern art.

Type75 Desk Insert
from Anglepoise
For over 70 years, Anglepoise has created table lamps and table lights that are now British design classics. In that time, Anglepoise has redefined all a table lamp has been and can be. Anglepoise table lamps remain true to George Carwardine's original design whilst incorporating modern features, such as energy saving bulbs. Anglepoise energy saving lamps are designed to replicate the intensity of light that is demanded by professionals, such as graphic artists and interior designers. Anglepoise is currently celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Anglepoise Original 1227, just one of Anglepoise's various famous ranges which include the Type1228 and Type 75.

In the simplest model of the expansion of a pulsar wind-blown bubble, the density of the supernova (SN) ejecta is assumed to be spherically symmetric, and thus not contributing to any asymmetries in the bubble itself. However, wind-blown bubbles are observed to be asymmetric. A possible cause of this asymmetry is intrinsic asymmetry in the SN ejecta, because it is now well established that SN explosions are not spherically symmetric. Analytical work has been done to determine how polar asymmetry in SN ejecta would affect the shape of the bubble. Giuliani's thin-shell approximation has been used to model the swept shell enclosing the bubble. The magnetic fields surrounding the pulsar are assumed to be turbulent, and thus not contributing to any asymmetry. At late times it is assumed that the bubble asymptotically attains a self-similar solution over time as it expands into the ejecta. At early times, when the pulsar starts blowing a bubble after an initial delay, the bubble may also be described by a self-similar solution. In both cases the bubble shape is asymmetric and time invariant. Surprisingly, multiple solutions are allowed within the framework of the thin-shell approximation. Hydrodynamical simulations with the VH-1 hydrocode have been performed to corroborate these analytical findings. At late times the Raleigh-Taylor instability in the accelerating bubble reduces its asymmetry much below the analytical predictions. At early times a better agreement is found between the analytical predictions and the simulations. We explore a transition between these two self-similar stages through hydrodynamical simulations.

Hi guys,
I am trying to install Red Hat 7.2 on my UP1000 700.
I have tried the string:
apb> bootl up1000.pal vmlinux.gz root=/dev/hdc
It loads the pal code and loads the kernel into memory, but all I get
is a blank black screen with a blinking cursor at the top. I would
also like to know how I can verify what my CDROM drive is called. Is
there a trick to determining whether it is /dev/hdc or something else?
(btw it's a sony atapi drive).
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Michael Chertoff is a long-standing Republican Party figure who served in the George W. Bush administration and has supported militarist U.S. foreign policies in the "war on terror."[1] A Harvard-trained lawyer affiliated with the right-wing Federalist Society, Chertoff's record includes serving as the first secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (2005-2009), as a federal judge in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (2003-2005), as Assistant Attorney General under John Ashcroft, and as special counsel to the Clinton-era Whitewater Commission.[2]
After leaving the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in 2009, Chertoff formed a risk management firm called the Chertoff Group to "advise corporate clients and governments, including foreign governments … on a range of security concerns, including cyber security, terrorism, fraud, border protection, and supply-chain security."[3] He also joined the high-powered law firm of Covington & Burling as senior of counsel.[4]
In late 2011, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney included Chertoff on his campaign advisory team on foreign and defense policy. Joining Chertoff was a host of other former Bush administration officials like Dov Zakheim and Eric Edelman, as well as several high-profile neoconservatives, including Robert Kagan, Paula Dobriansky, Eliot Cohen, and Dan Senor.[5]
At the Justice Department in 2001, Chertoff helped to craft the Patriot Act. As head of DHS in the aftermath of the 9/11 terror attacks, Chertoff was heavily criticized on a number of counts, most notably for his role in the Bush administration's response to hurricane Katrina. Chertoff also helped push the Bush administration's controversial immigration reform agenda, including the effort to expand law enforcement to intensify the detention of undocumented migrants.
Chertoff was a vocal proponent of many "war on terror" policies. In an April 22, 2007 op-ed for the Washington Post, Chertoff repeated the oft-used rhetoric of neoconservatives and hardliners comparing Al Qaeda and Islamic radicals to venerable villains like Hitler and Stalin. Criticizing Zbigniew Brzezinski, President Jimmy Carter's national security advisor, and other scholars for arguing that administration officials are "falsely depicting or hyping a 'war on terror' to promote a 'culture of fear,'" Chertoff wrote that the United States is "at war with a global movement and ideology whose members seek to advance totalitarian aims through terrorism." He added: "Today's extreme Islamist groups such as al-Qaida do not merely seek political revolution in their own countries. They aspire to dominate all countries. Their goal is a totalitarian, theocratic empire to be achieved by waging perpetual war on soldiers and civilians alike."[6]
Commenting on the op-ed, Ivan Eland, an author based at the Independent Institute, argued that many of Chertoff's characterizations were simply wrong. "The 9/11 attacks were treacherous acts of terrorism, but Chertoff and the Bush administration, the U.S. foreign policy establishment, and the American media act as if they were the beginning of history," Eland wrote. "Only in religion and quantum physics are there events without cause. Most Americans are unaware of their government's history of unnecessary and profligate meddling in the affairs of countries throughout the Middle East. For their own safety and security, Americans cannot continue to ignore that the Islamist venom resulting in 9/11 was rooted in this U.S. interventionist and quasi-imperial foreign policy. Instead of perpetuating the myth that the United States is at war with 'fanatics' who have a reflexive hatred of America, the nation's homeland security chief could better spend his time examining the real motivator for such terrorism—U.S. foreign policy—and recommending a policy of military restraint in the Middle East to reduce the chances of terrorist attacks at home."[7]
In a 2006 speech at Harvard, Chertoff defended wire-tapping and other Bush administration domestic anti-terror tactics. Arguing that fighting terror requires going beyond law enforcement, Chertoff asserted that "Before 9/11, the tools that existed had not been fashioned for a war on terror, but on criminal prosecution." Al Qaeda's activities, he said, "revealed three fundamental elements" that placed the anti-terror struggle in the category of a war: they have well-defined political aims, attempt to acquire territory, and can cause wide-scale damage. He also argued that critics of the "war" lack reasonable alternatives. "The consequences have to be measured with real world decisions when deciding on matters that deal with life or death. Terrorism in real life doesn't wait until you are done reviewing the evidence."[8]
A sign of Chertoff's political partisanship is his longtime association with the Federalist Society, a national organization of rightist lawyers and judicial reform activists dedicated to realigning the U.S. legal system to reflect a more conservative interpretation of the Constitution. One of Chertoff's first assignments in the George W. Bush administration was working with John Ashcroft, another Federalist Society associate, to investigate the 9/11 attacks.[9]
While at DHS, Chertoff addressed the Federalist Society on several occasions. As keynote speaker for the group's 2006 convention, Chertoff raised the specter of international lawyers threatening U.S. security. He urged Federalist Society members "to confront a new challenge, and that is the rise of an increasingly activist, left-wing, and even elitist philosophy of law that is flourishing not in the United States but in foreign courts and in various international courts and bodies."
Chertoff said that the International Criminal Court and legal decisions taken in other international fora threaten to constrain U.S. action. Chertoff concluded, "[I]f you take some of the ideas you've developed [at the Federalist Society], and you take them overseas and you take them to academia, and you take them into the legal-philosophical salons in Europe, you will eventually start to persuade because the merit of these ideas I think is strong. And what's wanting is the energy and the initiative and the courage to take them to a place where until now they have not been very seriously heard."[10]
One of the highlights of Chertoff's career before joining the Bush administration was his service as special counsel to the Whitewater Commission. In 1994, the Republican-led Congress created the Commission to investigate Bill and Hillary Clinton's involvement in Arkansas real estate and other business deals. Now widely regarded as a political witch-hunt spearheaded by Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R-NY) and Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr, the Whitewater Commission spent $40 million on the investigation, which ultimately failed to find that the Clintons had done anything illegal. Chertoff contributed a total of $2,000 to the "Friends of Senator D'Amato Committee" in 1997 and 1998.[11]
Chertoff's record as a federal appeals court judge became a matter of contention when he was nominated to become DHS secretary. Immigration rights activists charged that Chertoff had often appeared overtly dismissive of asylum claims, ruling against such claimants in 14 of 18 cases. In one case, he denied asylum to a Bangladeshi man who was imprisoned, severely beaten in jail, and forced to denounce his dissident political party.[12]
In 2007, Chertoff helped draft the compromise immigration bill that Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) and Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) attempted to push through the Senate.[13] In the first go-round, in June, the bill (which called for increased border security and employee-verification programs for immigrants, among other things) failed, short 15 votes due largely to Republican resistance. But the Bush administration—and Chertoff—refused to give up. According to the New York Times, after the bill stalled, Chertoff "pleaded for its passage, saying the administration "was willing to consider a number of proposed Republican amendments, including one that would require illegal immigrants to 'touch back' in their home countries (or some other country) to apply for legal status."[14]
Working under Ashcroft as an architect of the post-9/11 initiatives on the domestic war on terror, Chertoff helped supervise the roundup of 750 Arabs and Muslims on suspicion of immigration violations. Alleged to be terrorist sympathizers or material witnesses to terrorist acts, the "suspects" were held without bond for as long as three months, often in solitary confinement, despite never having been charged with a crime. Eventually, most were released or deported after trials by secret tribunals.[15]
In a 2003 report, the Justice Department's inspector general criticized these draconian measures as "indiscriminate and haphazard." The report also concluded that Chertoff and other top government officials had instituted a "hold until clear" policy for immigrant detainees, even though immigration officials questioned the policy's legality. In his book After, author Steven Brill describes how Chertoff obstructed detainees' access to lawyers, reasoning that they "could be questioned without lawyers present because they were not being charged with any crime."[16]
Writing in the neoconservative flagship Weekly Standard in December 2003, Chertoff attempted to refute charges that the Bush administration's war on terror measures had in many instances violated the Constitution. According to Chertoff, Bush "avoided the kind of harsh measures common in previous wars." Although engaged in a war on both domestic and international fronts, the president did not authorize the "evacuation or preventive detention of American citizens based on ethnic heritage." Nor was there any "government suppression of dissent or criticism," wrote Chertoff, adding that unlike such respected predecessors as John Adams or Woodrow Wilson, Bush "has not prosecuted those who argue against the administration, nor has the government seized newspapers or banned them from the mails, as Lincoln did."[17]
Concerning the detention of "enemy combatants," Chertoff argued in the same Weekly Standardarticle that the Bush administration followed the "customary and well-accepted practice of incapacitating enemy soldiers overseas." Regarding such matters as deciding "how long combatants can be held when we are fighting a war of extended or indefinite duration," Chertoff said the United States must "think outside the box but not outside the Constitution."[18]
In a June 2004 op-ed in the Wall Street Journal, Chertoff opined that the United States cannot win the war against terrorism if it "fight[s] in a legal fog, constantly speculating and litigating piecemeal about what the law might be. A murky legal climate only obscures our options and hamstrings our forces." Regarding the role courts might have in monitoring U.S. intelligence agencies' domestic actions, Chertoff wrote: "Basic policy questions like this cannot be simply left to the judiciary." Similarly, in his December 2003 Weekly Standardarticle, he wrote that it was time for "the most creative legal thinking" about the role of the U.S. justice system in "fighting a war of extended duration," arguing: "We are at a transition point in the evolution of legal doctrine to govern the armed conflict of terror."[19]

Except for this week, of course. Not with a big game on Friday night.
Two close friends will strap up their helmets and compete when King's Minooka team battles with Lancaster and Plainfield East in Southwest Prairie Conference action.
King and Lancaster are in touch nearly every day -- either a call, text, or grabbing a bite to eat. This week, the two haven't exchanged a word.
"Right now, we hate each other," Lancaster joked. "Right after [the game], we'll love each other."
King is hoping to make plans to grab a postgame meal with Lancaster. The only issue, though, is that he can't break the pact of silence with his friend, so he can't extend the invitation.
"We'll finally talk after the game, see what's going on," King said.
Both King and Lancaster are hoping for a potential one-on-one matchup against each other. King primarily plays tackle for Minooka; Lancaster moves around on the defensive line, often working in at defensive end.
While Minooka and Plainfield East are not true rivals, Friday's game has personal meaning; a chance to earn bragging rights. Lancaster has his sights set on beating King for a quarterback sack.
"I'm just hoping to show him what I got because this won't be the last time he sees me," Lancaster said.
King and Lancaster have traveled to each of Northwestern's first two home games together, rooting on the Wildcats along the sidelines then celebrating the win in the locker room.
Each Saturday, during the ride to Evanston, the two talk of the Friday night high school action has come, with each speaking confidently about their respective teams.
"A little trash talking here and there," said King. "We're just talking about our skill players, what kind of talent we have, how the matchup is going to go."
Friday's contest puts a friendly rivalry at stake, with the results sure to be remembered for the next four years and beyond.

ABC has renewed unscripted series "Wipeout" for a fifth season and brought aboard Vanessa Minnillo as a co-host.

Lot # 1425 (of 1560) < Previous Lot | Next Lot >
Michael Jordan Signed Limited-Edition Stephen Holland Giclee
Starting Bid - $1,000, Sold For - $3,231
Original giclee on canvas titled Game Time, issued in 1998, flawlessly signed in gold paint pen (grading "10") by both Michael Jordan and artist Stephen Holland. The limitation number "92/98" appears in the lower right corner. Ideally, this piece was signed under the auspices of Upper Deck and the company's authentication hologram label ("BAF07202") appears along the bottom white border. Measuring an impressive 23 x 49 inches, the work pictures Jordan in a classic action pose as a member of the Chicago Bulls. The size of this piece, combined with the high production values and Holland's unique hand embellishments, make this the finest Jordan signed limited-edition artwork ever to come on the market. This future museum piece was so well received in 1998 that it sold out before it was even offered to the public. Stephen Holland is an internationally acclaimed sports artist. In 1993 he was named the Sports Artist of the Year by the American Sport Art Museum, and he was also one of twelve artists selected by the United States Olympic Committee to represent the 100th Anniversary of the Olympics. Mint condition. Beautifully matted and framed to total dimensions of 33 x 55 inches. The only other example of this Stephen Holland giclee that REA has offered appeared as lot 733 in the May 2004 and sold for $4,600. Please Note: Due to the size and/or weight of this lot, shipping costs (depending on where it is sent and its method of shipping) may be substantial. LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $1,000. Estimate $2,000/$4,000.

Firewalls for the everyday
Not Just for Experts
Firewalls are becoming evermore sophisticated. Luckily, the tools for managing firewalls are becoming simpler and more accessible for ordinary users
Your computer lets you see the world, but you don't want the world to see you. Intruders are becoming more sophisticated, and it isn't enough anymore to hope they won't notice your inconspicuous workstation. If you're connected to the Internet, you'd better be behind some kind of firewall. Firewalls come in many sizes, shapes, prices, and designs. Interestingly enough, what used to be called a firewall is now only one of a wide range of security products. The traditional firewall is a form of router that resides in Layer 3 of the OSI reference model. Layer 3 is the layer of the stack that listens for the Internet Protocol, reads IP addresses, and makes decisions about where to route IP datagrams. A firewall additionally inspects the Layer 4 (TCP or UDP) headers to identify services and evaluate flags.

What a truly great idea. I never know what to give my son and his family for Christmas so I always get them gift cards. She gets them from girly stores like Bath and Beyond and he gets Best Buys. The grand kids get ones to toy stores or movies or something like that. I can make these and put them on the tree for them to find.

Papal pardon expected for butler after conviction
VATICAN CITY -- A painful and damaging chapter in Pope Benedict XVI's papacy closed Saturday with the conviction of his former butler on charges he stole the pontiff's private letters and leaked them to a journalist. But questions remain as to whether anyone else was involved in the plot, and when the pope will pardon his once-trusted aide.
Paolo Gabriele, until recently affectionately dubbed "Paoletto" by his pontifical family, stood stone-faced as Judge Giuseppe Dalla Torre read out the conviction and sentenced him to 18-months in prison for the gravest Vatican security breach in recent memory.
The decision, reached after just two hours of deliberations, capped a remarkable weeklong trial that saw the pope's closest adviser, Monsignor Georg Gaenswein, and a half dozen Vatican police officers testify about a betrayal of the pope that exposed the unseemly side of the Catholic Church's governance.
The highest-profile case to come before a court that usually handles 30 cases of petty theft a year ended none too soon: On Sunday, Benedict opens a two-week synod, or meeting of the world's bishops, summoned to Rome to chart the church's future evangelization mission and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Second Vatican Council. By putting the embarrassing leaks scandal behind it, the Vatican has removed a major and unwelcome distraction.
Gabriele was accused of stealing the pope's private correspondence and passing it on to journalist Gianluigi Nuzzi, whose book revealed the intrigue, infighting and allegations of corruption and homosexual liaisons that plague the Vatican.
Gabriele has said he leaked the documents because he felt the pope wasn't being informed of the "evil and corruption" in the Vatican, and that exposing the problems publicly would put the church back on the right track.
In his final appeal to the court Saturday morning, Gabriele insisted he never intended to hurt the church or the pope.
"The thing I feel strongly in me is the conviction that I acted out of exclusive love, I would say visceral love, for the church of Christ and its visible head," Gabriele told the court in a steady voice. "I do not feel like a thief."
The sentence was reduced in half to 18 months from three years, Dalla Torre said.

Geospatial Environmental Modeling of Climatic Hazards and Their Impacts (climateGEM)
Understanding climate requires the study of important geospatial and environmental components. For example, climatic hazards such as drought do not occur uniformly across a region, and the spatial patterns of such threats can and do change seasonally and interannually. Additional factors such as changes in elevation across an area make the resulting impacts vary even more. Through Geospatial Environmental Modeling (GEM) we assess and anticipate environmental impacts from climatic hazards at regional scales as they have played, are playing, and might play out over time.
Led by Jeremy Weiss, this new research focus of the laboratory integrates traditional analysis techniques from the atmospheric and related sciences with geospatial data modeling to investigate climatic hazards and their impacts. In addition to aggregating climate data in a state-of-the-art geographic information system (GIS), this new research focus will serve as the hub for web map visualization tools that enable the public to view geospatial data from new and potentially powerful research perspectives.

Breakfast links: Mixed news for pedestrians
And so the Republican Party continues its War Against Anything New.
"Federal excise taxes on gasoline sales are supposed to support these programs, however spending has significantly exceeded gas tax revenues in recent years. One reason for the excess has been federal spending on projects that dont involve highways or transit systems at all, including federally funded bike sharing programs."
Isn't that wrong? Isn't it because they haven't raised the gas tax in years, to cover the rising cost of road and highway building and maintenance? Even if they cut the spending on bikeshare and walking, they still won't have enough to cover our current non-bike/walk infrastructure. This seems like a not-so-transparent way of trying to not raise the gas tax, which is way overdue a hike.
I also think that the benefit of walking and bike-sharing spending is to get cars off the road, thereby benefitting car infrastructure. DC is a perfect example. Get some cars off the roads and it lessens the traffic.
What this is really about is the liberal commie hippy bike riding urbanites who are stealing money from the kitty that is supposed to be for fixing roads for God-fearing real Americans who drive to work to put food on the table for their families.
Its all in the framing of the issue.
Actually, that's just one of the reasons why it's wrong. Another reason is that the federal money for bikeshare doesn't come from transportation funds at all. It comes from environmental funds for clean air.
Bike sharing in DC was paid for with Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality improvement (CMAQ) money. Mitigating road congestion definitely involves highways. Mitigating air quality reductions caused by driving also involves highways.
Furthermore, bike sharing is bicycle transit. So it involves a transit system.
The real reason bike sharing shouldn't get funding is it isn't mentioned in either the Bible or the Constitution. Whereas Seawolf submarines show up frequently in the Book of Ruth ["And yea, for she doth smite them with her Seawolf submarine"] and Article II of the constitution ["Congress shall not allow a foreign-born president to cut funding for seawolf submarines."]
I was hoping there would be more options to choose from on the YouCut program. I see Joint Strike Fighter is not an option.
Cutting the JSF will not happen as it will piss off too many foreign allies of the US that have invested large amounts of money in it. Cutting the JSF will force a near government crisis in the Netherlands, aside from the bruised trust between the countries. Other countries will be significantly pissed off as well.
Big deal, I hear some people say. That's fine. Just realize that next time you need an international coalition to invade/rebuild/enforce a no-fly zone, those countries will not be there for the US.
