2012 Yahoo! Voices hack
|This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: the article contains several inconsistencies (July 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|July 12, 2012
Yahoo! Voices, formerly Associated Content, was hacked in July 2012. The hack is supposed to have leaked approximately half a million email addresses and passwords associated with Yahoo! Contributor Network.[1] The suspected hacker group, D33ds, used a method of SQL Injection to penetrate Yahoo! Voice servers. Security experts said that the passwords were not encrypted and the website did not use a HTTPS Protocol, which was one of the major reasons of the data breach.[2] Dana Lengkeek, a Yahoo! spokeswoman, was asked about the companies whose credentials were stolen, but Mrs Lengkeek did not respond. The email addresses and passwords are still available to download in a plaintext file in the hacker's website. The hacker group described the hack as a "wake-up call" for Yahoo! security experts.[3] Joseph Bonneau, a security researcher and a former product analysis manager at Yahoo, said "Yahoo can fairly be criticized in this case for not integrating the Associated Content accounts more quickly into the general Yahoo login system, for which I can tell you that password protection is much stronger"[4]
Reaction by communities and users[edit]
D33DS, the hacker group, said that the hack was a "wake-up call". They said that it was not a threat to Yahoo!, Inc. The IT Security firm, TrustedSec.net, said that the passwords contained a number of email addresses from Gmail, AOL, Yahoo, and more such websites. Yahoo Voice, was a subdomain of Yahoo. The attacker mistakenly forgot to remove the hostname "dbb1.ac.bf1.yahoo.com".[5]
Response from Yahoo[edit]
Immediately after the hack, Yahoo!, in a written statement, apologized for the breach. Yahoo did not disclose how many passwords were valid after the hack, because they said that every minute, 1-3 passwords are changed on their site.[6] Yahoo said that only 5% of its passwords were stolen during the hack.[7] The hackers website, d33ds.co, was not available later on Thursday, after the hack.[8] Yahoo said in a written statement that it takes security very seriously and is working together to fix the vulnerability in its site. Yahoo said that it was in the process of changing the passwords of the hacked accounts and notifying other companies of the hack.[4] They said that some of the passwords stored in the database were registered in 2006.[9]
A simple matter had sparked a controversy over Yahoo!. The controversy was sparked because of Yahoo's silence about the data breach. After the servers were hacked, Yahoo! did not mail the affected 450,000 victims, though it was promised earlier. There was no site-wide notifications about the hack, nor did any victim get any type of personal messages detailing how to reset their account passwords from Yahoo.[10]

Last February right before Valentine's Day was a perfect day for me.
My neighbor, Janice, had a "Valentine's Day" luncheon for a few friends. I could attend because I became disabled 18 months previously and lost my job. I had major surgery for a rare spinal arteriovenous malformation and woke up paralyzed.
After 30 years of working for two banks and a credit union, my world changed in August 2010. I entered a world the likes of which I had never known.
I could walk slowly and had use of my right arm. I couldn't drive a car, but I could drive a golf cart to Janice's house. I wore pink as suggested in the invitation. Wildlife artist Anne Worsham Richardson, who died in September, was one of the guests, and I was excited to meet her. Along with Edith and Deborah, we all sat like ladies chatting until time for lunch.
Deborah gave each one a heart-shaped box of chocolates. Janice served a lovely salad, delicious chicken casserole and a dessert of fresh fruit parfait with a divine slice of pound cake, all on fine china.
Between bites, I learned Anne was drawing by the age of 4 in a high chair by the kitchen window, watching the birds feasting on cornbread placed on an outdoor shelf.
Anne told us of how her husband stopped her from wearing a leather coat to go bird watching. In 1943 during World War II, a Nazi SS officer came swooshing in wearing a long leather coat into his classroom in Poland. Each boy over age 16 had to put their hands on the desk, and if they were large enough to hold a rifle, they were ushered off to enlist in the German Army. With his family informed of his leaving only by a dispatcher, he spent the next two years in Italy. He told Anne he could still smell the leather from the SS officer's coat.
After World War II, Edith was a jazz singer in a local Charleston band scheduled to play at the Naval Hospital. Two of the players got sick, forcing them to cancel. Well, the admiral intervened and pulled a drummer and saxophone player from the Navy Band. The saxophone player felt it was beneath him, and he showed his displeasure. Edith gave him a piece of her mind right back; she said they have been married more than 30 years.
Janice updated us on her role in the upcoming opera "Carmen" and the local effort to start an opera company.
Deborah told us about a recent stay at a relative's house. She was awakened by the sound of the doorbell, the phone ringing and the husband calling out to his wife to get the phone. It was all done by the bird in the house. She said it was a yellow-headed (and Anne knew the name) "Amazon parrot."
Anne told us she had more than 3,000 paintings to her credit. How embarrassed I was to ask her if her gallery remained open and to find out it was still on Church Street. I had to admit I had never visited it. Anne then pulled out her dossier, and as we all admired her art, she proceeded to give one to each of us.
I was speechless. My print was of Anne's parrot, Miss Scarlett. Using a mirror, she had taught the bird to say "Scarlett" to her image. After completing a watercolor of the bird, she showed it to her, and the parrot said, "Scarlett."
Deborah played the piano, and we listened to her renditions of "Beauty and the Beast" and "Over the Rainbow." Edith and Janice sang along.
For the first time in a long time, I was glad I did not have a job to go to, for this had been a wonderful day, an enlightening day, a perfect day. The soft rain came, and we all returned home.
Tina Doscher lives in West Ashley with her husband, Ricky, and their pet Lab, "Stono." She volunteers in schools, with the American Red Cross and is active with the local Air Force base as a member of its Community Advisory Board.

My Lomo New Year Resolution1 1
but, that's NOT my resolution. My resolution is to spend more time visiting other Lomo homes, and to thank everyone for their visits and, in turn, spend time at their homes. Who knows, maybe this year I'll overcome my aversion to the word "likes" and finally say to someone "Thanks for the likes." Well; maybe not—that's asking too much probably. Have a happy Lomo New Year everyone and I'll see you all on the other side! Ken

It's a very very simple one. There wasn't and isn't a Super Middleweight in the history of boxing that can beat Joe Calazaghe.

Joe wins this fight. He's too fast, smart, skilled, active for Ward and will win a decision 8-4 or 9-3. Calzaghe is one of the best SMW ever, the only opponent I could see beating him in his prime is RJJ

I think Calzaghe was very overrated..his win over hopkins was most impressive win..but I think ward handles him rather easily..I never thought he was that great..he didnt fight enough tough opposition.

Calzaghe fought the longest list of bums and nobodies i've ever seen for a champion him and Zolt erdie or whatever the hell that light heavyweights name was. They ought to be ashamed of themselves especially about taking advantage of these simple fans who see them look great against cans and think that makes them the best ever.

I would have absolutely loved to have seen this bout. Now this would be a superfight.

text:
- Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: A few; for instance, Caitlin talking to her father about her fear of helplessness.
- Action Girl: Caitlin, her police officer mother Mary-Ann, and to a lesser extent Serena.
- Action Mom: Mary-Ann.
- Actionized Sequel: Played With, as although the story becomes much more action-packed (after the first act), the character development is also much richer than in the original series.
- Action Prologue: Caitlin chases and catches a southern black racer (snake) in the forest while Serena tries to film it, in the style of a Nature Documentary.
- Alien Autopsy: After Caitlin blows up a gas station and kills Eddie, the authorities examine his charred body - unaware that he was ever human - and learn about the Creeps' biology.
- Alien Invasion: By way of infiltration.
- Antagonist Title
- Badass Family: The Websters. Lampshaded by Caitlin.
Caitlin: "Badass is in my blood!"
- Brief Accent Imitation: Billy, in his opening scene, fakes an American accent to fool his teacher and classmates into thinking they were misled about a British student joining them. It works, briefly.
- Call Back: As a sequel, there are quite a few nods to the original Goosebumps book.
- Most notably, Ricky's former subordinate status to Tasha on the Harding Herald school paper, and the change in their dynamic since then, is an important plot point.
- The main character falls for the new kid in town.
- Reference to phone calls at midnight by the Creeps. Shortly afterward, Caitlin indeed gets phone calls in the middle of the night, to keep her on her toes as a means of intimidation by Ricky.
- At some point, a bake sale is involved.
- Calling Me a Logarithm: Although it is an actual insult, Elliott still has this reaction when he and Billy are arguing over Caitlin.
Billy: "You're not going on a date with this ponce, are you?"Elliott: "I am not a ponce! What's a ponce?"
- Chase Scene: Several, most notably an epic foot chase through the city culminating in a gas station showdown.
- Chekhov's Gun: The video camera. Used in the beginning of the story as Caitlin and Serena film their Nature Documentary, it becomes important later by providing proof of the Creeps' existence (when Caitlin secretly filmed them at their hideout).
- Commonality Connection: After getting off to a bad start when Billy's antics embarrass Caitlin in front of her entire science class, the two of them start to bond when they meet each other in the park, both birding.
Caitlin: (skeptically, upon seeing Billy's binoculars) "What are you looking at?"Billy: "Tits." (beat) "Or as you Americans call them, chickadees."
- Cool People Rebel Against Authority: Billy.
- Darker and Edgier: Than the original novel, the story's predecessor in-universe.
- Deadpan Snarker: Most everybody, but especially Billy.
- Deconstruction Fic: Puts the original story's premise into a more plausible setting, and examines the effects.
- Descriptively-Named Species: The Creeps. Justified, since this is a name the humans gave themselves after becoming reptilian monsters.
- Distressed Dude: Billy, who still manages to gain a slight edge over his kidnappers by being incredibly annoying.
- Donut Mess with a Cop: Billy jokes about this with Caitlin's police officer mother.
- Evil Redhead: Tasha.
- Expy: Billy is basically Spike as a 12-year-old kid and with an affinity for birds.
Caitlin: "...someone wasn't very creative."
- Force Feeding: Attempted by the Creeps on Serena with the Identity Seeds, until Billy saves her.
- Insistent Terminology: In the opening, Caitlin explains to her father the difference between poisonous and venomous, of which the deadly snakes he worries about her someday handling are the latter.
Caitlin: "Bites and stings are venom. Everything else is poison."
- Junior High
- Kill It with Fire
- Lizard Folk: The Creeps, when not in their human form.
- The Mean Brit: Billy has elements of this, but mostly he's just a Consummate Liar.
- Military Brat: Caitlin.
- Mutagenic Food: The Identity Seeds, which look like chocolate chips and turn those who eat them into Creeps.
- Nature Lover: Caitlin, Billy, and to a lesser extent Serena all love being in the wilderness looking for animals, especially birds and herps.
- New Transfer Student: Billy, originally from England.
- No Biochemical Barriers: Examined. It mostly boils down to the fact that the Creeps walking among us are not fully alien, having been converted from humans, and that the Identity Seeds are designed to convert any race into the shapeshifters represented by the villains.
- Nothing Is Scarier: The Creeps in their reptilian form - and what they are capable of - are not fully revealed until the end of the first act, as a prelude to the first Chase Scene, to enhance the horror that ensues when they do transform.
- Only in Florida: Set in Gainesville.
- Oral Fixation: Billy.
"I like having things in my mouth." Another student snickered. Ignoring them, Billy explained, "It helps me to concentrate."
- Pity the Kidnapper: Tasha, after taking Billy hostage.
Tasha: "Are you flirting with me?"Billy: "Does that bother you?"Tasha: "Yes!"Billy: "Then I shall continue."
- Precision F-Strike: Combined with Curse Cut Short (this is a story based on a children's series, after all). It Makes Sense in Context.
- Punny Name: Mary-Ann Webster, Caitlin's mother.
- Rogue Protagonist: Ricky, the protagonist of the first book, is the Big Bad in this follow-up (actually only a Big Bad Wannabe), but this is consistent with the ending of the previous story.
- Rule of Three: How many times does Caitlin infiltrate the Creeps' hideout (intentionally or otherwise) before they turn on her? Three times.
- Semper Fi: Caitlin's father Jim is a former Marine, now a firefighter.
- Shout-Out: Two of the Creeps are named Brenda and Eddie, which leads to Caitlin quipping, "Does Billy Joel know about you two?"
- The Starscream: Tasha.
- Teens Are Monsters: Literally, in the case of the Creeps.
- Transhuman Treachery: Played straight at first, with all the Creeps seen as devoted to the spread of their kind and the turning of all humans, but subverted later on.
- Turn of the Millennium: Set in late 2001, shortly after The War on Terror has begun. Explicitly begins a week after 9/11, with the fear of terrorism (as represented by the titular Creeps) serving as a thematic plot point.
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: The Creeps can transform from their human to alien forms and back at will.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Mary-Ann's fear of snakes is the only thing standing in the way of Caitlin getting one as a pet.
- World of Snark

(by min, single mother of teens)
Hooray! Everybody loves FunMonday.
If the topic is good and it's something that I'm in the mood to discuss.
This week's topic is really good.
Here it is from Hulagirl:
After much thought and consideration I've come up with the following topic….clothing…specifically clothing you can't get rid of. We all have at least one or two items of clothing that we can't part with, even if we can't or don't wear them. I want to know about yours. Show us if you have pictures or describe it in detail. Model it for us if you dare.
I do have two special articles of clothing. They are shirts that were worn together by one of the stuntwomen in the making of a movie. It was a movie that I enjoyed very, very much.
My sister Nutso gave me this gift for my last birthday.
It has been a very long time since we had a contest here at mama drama, so let's try turning this FunMonday into a contest.
If you can guess which movie this outfit came from, you will win a special prize. I can't tell you what the prize is, but it is better than an empty plastic honey bear, which I think was the last prize I gave away.
If you've been reading mama drama for a while, you know what kinds of movies I like. If you've joined us fairly recently, ask around, somebody will fill you in I'm sure.
If no one has guessed it by noon*, I will leave a hint at the bottom of this post. If no one gets it then, I will leave another at one o'clock*. If it still isn't guessed by then, I will give one that will be a dead give away at two*.
Go for it.
*Times are approximate…as a mom, I am at the mercy of my kids.
Being noon and having no winner, I offer this clue:
It is a horror movie, made in the past two years.
Here is your second clue:
Bruce Willis was in it.

Found growing on a hardwood tree has a yellowish orange color
Witch's butter?
Slime Mold?
Tremella mesenterica (common names include yellow brain, golden jelly fungus, yellow trembler, and witches' butter) is a common jelly fungus in the Tremellaceae family of the Agaricomycotina. It is most frequently found on dead but attached and on recently fallen branches, especially of angiosperms, as a parasite of wood decay fungi in the genus Peniophora. The gelatinous, orange-yellow fruit body of the fungus, which can grow up to 7.5 cm (3.0 in) diameter, has a convoluted or lobed...

Man starved and beat wife to force abortion
The Local · 22 Jul 2014, 16:03
Published: 22 Jul 2014 16:03 GMT+02:00
- First Italian pregnant after egg donor ban lift (22 Jul 14)
- Why doctors in Italy refuse to give abortions (04 Jul 14)
The 48-year-old man was arrested at his home in Sant'Agata Bolognese, a village between Modena and Bologna, police said in a statement released on Monday.
The Moroccan was caught after his 30-year-old wife escaped the family home and went to the authorities.
She told police she had been kept captive at home by her husband, who allegedly beat and starved her.
The mistreatment was aimed at terminating his wife's two-month pregnancy, as he did not want her to have the baby. He is now facing charges of abuse and kidnapping, police said.
The couple reportedly has another child.

Memo to bidders competing to buy Philadelphia Gas Works: Put a lid on it.
City Councilwoman Marian B. Tasco complained Tuesday that lobbyists purporting to represent bidders for the city's gas utility have reached out to her and other Council members, apparently in violation of confidentiality agreements to keep the sale process secret.
"I have a problem with being contacted by individuals," Tasco said at a meeting of the Philadelphia Gas Commission, the city's oversight board that she chairs.
Suzanne Biemiller, Mayor Nutter's first deputy chief of staff, agreed with Tasco and said the bidders, whose identity the city has declined to disclose, would be instructed that "they are not to be contacting City Council members as individuals. . . . That is the last thing we would want."

Great relaxing time - stayed in the healey lodge which was beautiful and well equipped (other than no towels)!
Only down side was: having to be out of the hot tub by 11pm.... Doesn't make Sense as the lodge is tucked away with just one immediate neighbour. Also, defeats the object of having outside decking with tables and chairs, would you be expected to go inside on a summers night at 11pm. I'd hope not?!
I felt being checked on and told to get out of the hot tub by the site manager at 10.55pm quite controlling and at 45 years old felt like I was having a telling off!! Need to lighten up a little I'd say ... Just saying :-)
Confirmed guest, 2016-03-14
The only reason that I scored this a 9 overall was due to one of the hot tub motors not working fully. An engineer had been out the day before, but would not have the part until the Saturday morning.
We were advised of this, by the owner during the initial tour, and we were impressed and pleased that he was so upfront with this information. The whole purpose of our stay was to use the hot tub and relax - which is what we did
No towels had to buy some

My message did not post. I will repeat it. I have a small holding of it. I am looking for good earning.
Take care,
So, are you holding both JVA and GMCR thru earning?
If GMCR beat earning then JVA will jump.
JVA reported earnings Jan 28.
"The Company had net income of $2,485,677, or $0.39 per share (basic) and $0.37 per share (diluted) for the year ended October 31, 2012 compared to a net income of $811,930, or $0.14 per share (basic and diluted) for the year ended October 31, 2011. The increase in net income primarily reflects an increase in our sales and gross margin."
Then the share price sold off, then i bought shares at 7.05.

The revamped version of this entertaining musical features the reverential retelling of the Gospels of Matthew and John in a contemporary southern setting, set to bluegrass music. The award winning musical is based on the book The Cotton Patch Gospel of Matthew and John by Clarence Jordan, a Bible scholar and Civil Rights activist. Tom Key and Russell Treyz adapted Jordan's writtings and worked with the late Harry Chapin to create this musical stage version.

Trading Harvin would be almost as stupid as trading Moss was. With that being said he is in the last year of his deal and it's hard to price him. He's a dynamic player but not your prototypical #1 or flanker receiver.
I do not want Greg Jennings, aging and injury prone. Hopefully he joins Philbin in Miami as speculated. I'd take Bowe or Wallace.
I don't see the Vikings getting any of them though. They'll probably sign the likes of Kevin Ogletree, Ramses Barden or Brandon Gibson.
No matter what happens with Harvin or who they sign they need to draft a WR at 23 regardless.
With a traded Harvin and cut Jenkins (don't expect him to collect his $3m roster bonus)
That leaves their WR depth chart as:
Jarius Wright
Stephen Burton
Chris Summers
Greg Childs (shredded both patellas last pre-season, doubt he even plays)

Joon Ying Boon and Megan Varnum Participate in the 25th Annual BUMC Art Days and GMS Student Art Exhibit
Joon Ying Boon and Megan Varnum, Program in Biomolecular Pharmacology Ph.D. graduate students, contributed to the success of 25th Annual BUMC Art Days, March 30-31, 2015. BUMC students, faculty and staff were invited to contribute paintings, photos, poetry, sculpture, needlework, etc. for the event. This year's keyword was INTERSECT and a special display section was set aside in Hiebert Lounge devoted to works focused on "Intersect." On Tuesday, April 14, 2015, Joon's and Megan's art works were also displayed at a special exhibit sponsored by the Division of Graduate Medical Sciences featuring paintings and photographs by DGMS graduate students.
Joon Ying Boon has entitled her piece, "Grandfather Trees." She explains that "somewhere in the overcrowded, busy and skyscrapers-filled urban Hong Kong, there is an old park with old trees where one can find peace and serenity."
Joon is also a senior Ph.D. student pursing her dissertation research on the identification of proteins that bind to and regulate LRRK2 in the Laboratory of Neurodegeneration, under the mentorship of Principal Investigator and Professor of Pharmacology and Neurology, Benjamin Wolozin, M.D., Ph.D.
The banner painting above was done by Megan Varnum's and is entitled, "A Mexican Hillside". Megan elaborated on that, "Mexicans incorporate vibrant color into nearly every aspect of their culture, and I wanted to reflect that in this painting. Although I cannot personally take credit for taking the photo from which this was painted, it reminds me of the times my family would go to Mexico and how inspired I would be by all the colors."
Megan is a senior Ph.D. student doing her dissertation research on traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the Laboratory of Molecular NeuroTherapeutics under the direction of mentor, Principal Investigator, and Professor of Pharmacology and Neurology, Tsuneya Ikezu, M.D., Ph.D.
These two aspiring young scientists inspire us with their creativity. Beautiful work, Joon and Megan!
Sanghee Lim received 2015 Medical Student Research Grant from the Melanoma Research Foundation
Congratulations to Sanghee Lim on being awarded a 2015 Medical Student Research Grant from the Melanoma Research Foundation for his proposal, "Defining Novel Mechanisms of Genome Instability in Melanoma." The Medical Student Research Grant is awarded for a one-year period in order "to provide opportunities and funding for medical students to engage in short clinical or laboratory-based research projects focused on better understanding the biology and treatment of melanoma." Sanghee is one of six medical students who received the nationally competitive award this year.
An MD/PhD student Program in Biomolecular Pharmacology, Sanghee is working under the guidance of Dr. Neil Ganem, Assistant Professor of Pharmacology & Experimental Therapeutics and Medicine, in the Laboratory of Cancer Cell Biology at the Shamim and Ashraf Dahod Breast Cancer Research Laboratories. His work is aimed at defining the mechanisms that give rise to chromosome instability in human melanoma. In particular, Sanghee is testing whether activating mutations in the oncogene BRAF, which occur in ~80% of all melanomas, directly promote mitotic defects.
Great job, Sanghee! Keep up the great work.
Neema Yazdani Receives IBANGS 2015 Outstanding Graduate Student Travel Award
Neema Yazdani is one of two graduate students selected for the 2015 "Outstanding Graduate Student Travel Award" for the 17th Annual International Behavioral and Neural Genetics Society (IBANGS) Meeting in Uppsala, Sweden. Neema is a third year PhD candidate and Program in Biomolecular Pharmacology student in the Laboratory of Addiction Genetics under the mentorship of Camron D. Bryant, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Pharmacology and Psychiatry. As a recipient of this award, Neema is invited to present his research as an oral presentation titled, "Hnrnph1 is a quantitative trait gene for methamphetamine sensitivity". Neema's efforts in generating and phenotyping TALENs-targeted Hnrnph1 knockout mice combined with striatal transcriptome analysis via RNA-seq led to the identification of Hnrnph1 as a novel quantitative trait gene involved in the stimulant response to methamphetamine. His transcriptome results suggest that Hnrnph1 could regulate the neural development of the mesocorticolimbic circuitry which would have widespread implications for understanding the etiology of a variety of neurobiological disorders involving a dysregulation of dopamine transmission.

Dr. Neil Ganem Receives Smith Family Foundation Award
Neil J. Ganem, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Pharmacology & Experimental Therapeutics and Medicine at the Boston University School of Medicine, has received a 2014 Smith Family Foundation Award for Excellence in Biomedical Research.
This prestigious, highly competitive three-year award of $300,000 is intended to help launch the careers of newly independent biomedical researchers. Since 1992, the program has funded 130 investigators for a total investment of $23 million. Applications focus on all fields of basic biomedical science as well as research in physics, chemistry and engineering. Applicants, who are nominated by their institutions, must be full-time faculty at nonprofit academic, medical, or research institutions.
Dr. Ganem received his Ph.D. from the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth and was a postdoctoral fellow at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard Medical School. His research focuses on the causes and consequences of chromosomal instability, broadly defined as the persistent acquisition of both numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations. Chromosomal instability is a hallmark of solid cancers and is known to facilitate tumor initiation, progression, and relapse. The Smith Family Foundation Award will support Dr. Ganem's research to examine how cancer cells adapt to abnormal chromosomal content.

Rachel L. Flynn, Ph.D. Awarded Peter Paul Professorship
Junior faculty arrive at Boston University full of ambition and with a head full of ideas, but they often have relatively little money for research. So being awarded a Peter Paul Career Development Professorship can feel like winning the lottery; winners receive an annual stipend of $40,000 for three years to pursue their research interests.
For some, it can even seem too good to be true.
"Once I received the email, I asked if they had the right Professor Gonzales," says Ernest Gonzales, a School of Social Work assistant professor of human behavior. Gonzales, who had no idea that he had been nominated for the award, says the reply from the provost's office was immediate: "Yes, Ernest, it's you!"
Peter Paul Professorships were also awarded to Rachel Flynn, a School of Medicine assistant professor of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, and to Jacob Bor, a School of Public Health assistant professor of global health at the Center for Global Health & Development. University trustee Peter Paul (GSM'71) created the professorships named for him in 2006 with a $1.5 million gift, later increased to $2.5 million. Jean Morrison, BU provost, and President Robert A. Brown select recipients from faculty who are holding their first professorship, have arrived within the last two years, and have been recommended by deans and department chairs.
"It is a privilege to witness the development of talented young scholars into outstanding teachers and researchers," says Morrison. "From the discovery of novel new cancer treatments and effective approaches to the HIV epidemic to improving conditions for an aging workforce, Professors Bor, Flynn, and Gonzales are fulfilling—and in many ways exceeding—the promise we saw in them when they joined the BU community. We are enormously proud of the important work they're performing and excited to help advance their research careers."
Gonzales, who earned a doctorate from Washington University in St. Louis, arrived at the University in July 2013. He is still thinking about how to use the award. He currently juggles several interdisciplinary research projects that focus on productive aging, structural discrimination in and outside of the workforce, and "unretirement"—the practice of retirees returning to work.
His initial findings suggest that the groups most vulnerable to ageism are workers under 30 and those 55 and older. Employees who fall within these ranges face social exclusion and questions about their professionalism or competence. Gonzales is also examining how early life experiences can predict difficult work trajectories later in life. Someone who enters the workforce at 17 with a high school diploma will likely work more physically demanding jobs—such as construction and manufacturing—that wear on their bodies and make it difficult to remain in the workforce long-term.
Gonzales also compares US practices to those in European countries, like Germany, where Chancellor Angela Merkel's government recently enacted a policy that allows people who have worked 45 years to retire with full benefits. He believes these individuals will relax, recuperate, and eventually return to the workforce—a theory he's calling "Triple R."
"I think we have a lot to learn from other nations," says Gonzales, who would like to conduct cross-national research to see how this and other productive aging policies affect workers' health and economic standing, with the eventual goal of proposing policy and legislation in the United States.
Flynn, who earned a doctoral degree in cancer biology from the University of Massachusetts Medical School, has been at BU since June 2013. She studies the role telomeres, repetitive DNA sequences that cap the ends of chromosomes, play in cancer development. Each time a cell divides, Flynn says, it loses a chunk of telomere instead of more essential genes further upstream. When telomeres get too short, cells either stop growing or die.
"That is the aging process," she says. But cancer cells have a way to "highjack this mechanism. When a telomere starts to get shorter, cancer outsmarts it" by reactivating the mechanism that keeps it growing forever.
Telomeres maintain their length using two pathways. Flynn's lab studies the pathway used by osteosarcoma and glioblastoma—rare and lethal cancers of the bone and brain—and hopes to identify novel treatments that would target this highjacked pathway to better manage the cancers.
So far, Flynn has seen promising results. One compound she's testing in vitro doesn't just stop cancer cells from growing, but completely obliterates them—and with minimal effects to surrounding healthy cells. The next step is to test the compound in mouse models.
"If it works as well as it does in a dish, it'll be amazing," she says.
Flynn will use the award to hire lab personnel and to buy reagents. "It's a tremendous opportunity to represent Peter Paul and have money to build my lab," she says, "but the real goal is to raise the bar, to elevate cancer research at BU."
Bor, who earned a doctorate at the Harvard University School of Public Health, came to BU in September 2013. He applies the tools of microeconomic models and natural experiments to the field of public health.
"Economics puts an emphasis on the individual; each person is making the best decision for themselves," Bor says. "At least, that's the theory." He looks at decision-making and behavior in a larger economic context to determine what effects they have on health.
Across southern Africa, there's an elevated HIV infection rate for young women. There are also "high levels of transactional sex," Bor says. "Maybe if we can expand the choice set of young women so that they can make the best decisions for themselves, we can give them economic opportunities to avoid these relationships."
In Botswana, he says, the government changed the structure of secondary school so that young women were encouraged to attend. The move resulted in a decrease in HIV infections within that population, he says.
With the award, Bor plans to recruit more doctoral students and research assistants to tackle the papers he's been dreaming of writing, especially on questions related to South Africa's HIV treatment program.
"The goal is to rigorously turn these out," Bor says, "and the faster we do so, the better monies are allocated and the more lives can be saved."Original article posted on BU Today.

1996 Mercury Tracer LTS 4dr Sedan
I actually have a Mercury tracer and it is one amazing little car it has some of the best and worst things in my opinion. But if you ever get one you get a strange attachment and feel like the car is more than it really is. I've had it for one year and it only has 46,000 miles on it it gets great gas mileage and has plenty of power for city driving and oddly enough this car does great cornering and on dirt it really handles well the interior is very simple but looks nice and the car over has a great look some of the parts are a little iffy though but it is a Ford and they have been known to have problems like that but fords also take the best beating and just keep going.
I really like the engine it just sounds great all the time and runs very strong when its tuned well the car has amazing suspension and really takes a beating I've driven my car sideways for most of the time I had it. This car stays flat through corners and really holds the road when you want it to.
It really would be great if the could fix the wiring and overall hi end speed. The car really moves well but needs to be refined. Also it doesn't have a very rigid frame so in a hard corner the whole frame twists just a bit I would still give this car a ten on the scale of fun and practical.
1996 Mercury Tracer 4dr Sedan
Loved my car! I've had my Tracer Trio for 4 years but now have to say goodbye. It's at 134,000 miles and has been having more problems than I can afford to deal with. But through it all I have really enjoyed this car! It gets great gas mileage - 35mpg. Super fast giddy-up! It's comfortable and not bad looking. I wish I could afford to fix & keep it! 2 months ago I bought a 2003 Kia Spectra because it's problem free & almost new but like the Mercury so much better!
Great gas mileage, quick and fun to drive!
Make engine parts on this car (and every car out there) last forever.
very fun to drive, that's why i call it the t-racer.
it will smoke any car at the light.
monster 1.9 engine with garret ball-bearing
16 inch rims would be nicer
When i was a senior in highschool, i
bought this car replacing my 84
sunbird. it seemed much nicer than my
old car (but what wouldnt?)and at
5,500, i couldn't pass it up. all i
have to say is : make sure you change
yoru timing belt. mine snapped, and
costed me 2000 dolalrs to repair. the
cars value went down immaculatly fast,
and little things broke within a month
of purchase, like the speedometer and
the radio. engine always felt like it
needed a tune up.
the design of the car was quite
spirited and attractive, and it often
felt fast becuase of its small body.
imporove the realibility of the engine
components and electircal systems. the
model is now off the market, but if one
ever comes back... please, ford,
please...more power.
This vehicle is in the shop every
couple of months. Will nickel and dime
you to death! New engine at 72,000
miles. I would definitely recommend an
extended warranty.

Classic NES Versus Famicom Mini
U.S. against Japan -- who will win the battle of 8-bit retro cool?
Admittedly, the wait between the Famicom Mini's February 14 release in Japan and June 7, when the Classic NES games and limited-edition GBA SP will hit the North American market, is an awfully long one for die-hard fans in need of their portable 8-bit fix. But is there any other way to reassure these free-spending early adopters? Let's see.
The Famicom Mini series does have an edge as far as the size of its lineup is concerned. Nintendo of America chose to leave two games in Japan when it announced the Classic NES series. Only the following eight GBA remakes will arrive on American shores:
Fans of Namco's Mappy and Hudson's Star Soldier will no doubt be crushed to learn that Nintendo of America passed on localizing either of those. Or anyway they would be, if there were any fans of those games in America, but as yet we've seen no evidence of such.
So that's not much consolation for importers who bought the whole set. However, they can rest secure in the knowledge that the Famicom Mini software packaging completely smokes Nintendo of America's box designs for the Classic NES Series. The Famicom Mini cartridges come in special mini-sized versions of their oblong '80s-vintage boxes, which in turn come inside transparent plastic cases with color-coded and numbered Famicom Mini cardboard frames. The whole works is topped off by Nintendo's stylish "Origin Of Our TV Game" seal -- altogether, there's very little that looks sharper on a shelf than a complete Famicom Mini collection.
Famicom Mini by first-round T.K.O.
The Classic NES games, by comparison, feature only the original NES box art adapted into the familiar North American Game Boy Advance box design, with hardly a fraction of the total cool packed into even one Famicom Mini casing.
The Famicom Mini series, then, is a clear winner in the software presentation department. Hardware is a different matter, though. The Japanese Famicom Mini Game Boy Advance SP was actually a somewhat stripped down version of the original Famicom revival GBA, given away last year in very limited quantities as part of a special contest. The commercially-released Famicom GBA lacked the stylish control-panel overlay of the contest version -- the extra fascia was omitted to lower production costs. As a result, it was simply a GBA done up in maroon and beige Famicom colors, a general homage rather than a specific replica.
Hate to say it, but NOA takes the prize here.
The North American NES-style GBA SP, however, retains the extra detail in the controller overlay, giving it the distinctive look of the NES joypad. We have to say, it's hard to imagine a more stylish retro design.
So was it worth it? Was it really worth it to shell out more than $300 for a complete Famicom Mini collection? When you could have waited a while and paid a mere $19.99 a game, and a standard-issue $99.99 for the ultra-snappy NES GBA? In truth, only the poor folks who paid that price can say for sure, but for our part...well, they really do make a nice-looking shelf display.
If details on the software are what you're interested in -- exploring updates like the cool new save feature in Excitebike -- you'll want to check out the 1UP Classics Page. Starting today, we'll be delivering a series of reviews detailing all 10 games in the Japanese release. Yes, even Mappy.

Waterbury to see $350k from insuranceNovember 16,2012
WATERBURY The villages insurance coverage will provide a nearly $350,000 blank check as compensation for its old office building at 51 S. Main St., which was severely damaged by flooding from Tropical Storm Irene last year.
A contractor had estimated almost a year ago that repairing the building would cost $435,844, but Waterbury officials have since decided that the space is insufficient for their needs in coming decades, municipal manager Bill Shepeluk said Wednesday at a village trustees meeting.
The trustees can now figure out how else to spend the insurance money, and there are no restrictions.
Due to depreciation, the villages insurance company had anticipated providing 75 percent of the cost to rehabilitate the building to the condition it was in prior to Irene. But the village argued that inflation should instead bump the amount up. The insurer ultimately offered 80 percent of the rehabilitation estimate, Shepeluk said.
The insurance money will also continue to cover expenses for heat and electricity at 51 S. Main St. and rental costs for the village police department, but the arrangement wont last indefinitely.MORE IN Central VermontIn 1962 Mavis Doyle, longtime reporter for the Burlington Free Press Montpelier Bureau, wrote a...

The LORDS COMMISSIONERS' REPORT TO HIS MAJESTY, concerning the plantation of Longford and O'Carroll's country, upon the escheated lands in those counties.
|The LORDS COMMISSIONERS' REPORT TO HIS MAJESTY, concerning the plantation of Longford and O'Carroll's country, upon the escheated lands in those counties.
We to whom the business of Longford and O'Carroll's country was referred, with the advice and approbation of the rest of your Privy Council, offer these propositions following, to be observed in the plantation there to be made.
(1.) According to the survey now taken, the escheated lands of all sorts in Longford amount together to 130,356 acres, and in O'Carroll's country to 54,199; total 184,555.
(2.) Out of which, allowance being made of the glebes, abbey lands, lands formerly granted to patentees, which are not to be meddled with, unprofitable mountain, wood, and bog as they are found by the survey, there will remain of good land and profitable wood to be disposed: in Longford, 66,190 ac.; in O'Carroll's country, 36,872; total 103,062.
Then follow a number of suggestions, of which the following are the most important:--
(5.) It is best for the King's service that the undertakers, according to their several qualities, should have proportions of profitable land, some of 1,000 acres, others of 600, 500, 400, 300, and 200 a piece, besides bog, barren mountain, and unprofitable woods, of which there is likewise division to be made amongst them, by which course the buildings will be more, the bodies of men in greater numbers, and consequently the plantations will be stronger and better settled. The same order to be held in planting of the natives, but with this caution, that none of the better sort shall have more than a fourth part taken from them.
(8.) Every ancient pretended possessor who shall be now made a freeholder shall part with at least a fourth part of the lands he formerly possessed, besides a ratable proportion towards the compounding for the two yearly rents, now taken upon the country; that is of 200l. composition to Malbie's heirs, 120 beeves to the manor of Graynard.
(9.) Many of the principal natives are civil men, have built good houses and bawns, and some of them strong castles, and to these it may well stand with the King's goodness (if it may with the conveniency of the plantation) to regrant them their houses and castles again, with lands about them, upon the same conditions that the other natives have theirs. Your Deputy and Commissioners to be required to have a special care to give contentment to the best gentlemen and chiefs of several septs, by making good provision for them, that the clamours of the multitude may be restrained.
(10.) The places where the undertakers should be planted may be left to the discretion of the Deputy and Commissioners, though we are of opinion that it would sooner civilize the people and keep them from their private meetings, to have the undertakers mixed among them than to be designed to any place by themselves.
(11.) We desire that your Majesty should rather gain a good people and make a strong country than a rackrent, and therefore we do not advise a greater rent should be taken for this land than 2½d. an acre of the undertakers and natives one with another, all alike, for the good land in respect of the charge of the building and planting, and for the bog, barren mountain, and unprofitable wood (of which every native and undertaker is to have an addition to their other proportions). The Lord Deputy and Commissioners to be appointed are to set rents upon the same by the acre, both to the natives and undertakers, according to the goodness and quality thereof.
(12.) Every undertaker and native of 1,000 acres is to hold of you in capite, others of the lesser proportions to hold of your castle in Dublin in free and common soccage.
(13.) That every undertaker and native of 1,000 ac. shall be bound within three years to build a castle 30 foot in length, 20 in breadth, and 25 in height, to be built of stone or brick with lime, and compassed in with a bawn of 300 foot in compass of stone or brick with lime; and every undertaker of 600 and so to 1,000 ac. to be bound to build a strong house of stone or brick with lime within a bawn of 200 feet in compass; and every undertaker of a quantity under 600 ac. to build a good house of stone or brick with lime. The natives of these two last named proportions to be left to themselves.
(14.) That every proportion of 1,000 ac. shall have a manor with a court baron, with power to create tenures, and a leet, and every proportion of 600 and so to 1,000 ac. shall have a manor with a court baron, with power to create tenures. The proportions under 600 ac. to have neither.
(15.) That among all the undertakers and natives there may be grants made of 6 market towns, in the most convenient places, and no more, and fairs in so moderate a number, and rents to be reserved upon both.
(16.) That no native shall have granted unto him less than 100 ac. except very few upon good consideration, and none at all under 60; and all of them to hold immediately from your Majesty to lessen the dependency upon their lords.
(17.) That every undertaker and native that is bound to build may have liberty to take a proportionable quantity of timber and other materials for his building in any place within the plantation, by warrant of the Lord Deputy and Commissioners, within a limitation of the time of that liberty.
(20.) That the natives may be left at liberty to alien to British without licence, but be tied by a proviso of forfeiture in their patents not to sell their lands in fee simple or fee tail, or lease them above 40 years or 3 lives, to any of the Irish, lest the old landlords should grow great again; and the like, if they shall at any time enter into action of rebellion. And that care be likewise had that they make certain estates to their under-tenants, and not to leave them at will to shift every year.
(21.) That every undertaker and native be bound to sow yearly a quantity of hemp.
(22.) That the Lord Deputy and Commissioners may be warranted to grant a quantity of land to each parish church for the bettering of the livings of the poor incumbents as was done in Wexford, which is to be deducted out of the whole before your Majesty's fourth part be taken.
(23.) That a corporate town may be established in some convenient place within the plantation, and 100 ac. to be allotted to the burgesses that shall undertake it, with warrant to make a grant of a corporation with such name and such immunities and privileges as were granted to the new corporation in the escheated lands of Ulster, and that some lands may be allotted for the maintenance of a free school, which are likewise to be deducted as aforesaid.
(24.) That the natives be tied by a proviso of forfeiture neither to take upon them the name of O'Farroll, nor to yield to, set up, or maintain that name, by giving of rent, cutting, or service, nor divide their lands by gavelkind.
(25.) That the whole charge of admeasuring the county and other necessary expenses for the finishing of those lands, may be borne by the undertakers and natives by equal contribution; but the charge to be viewed by the Deputy and Commissioners, and no more raised than has been duly disbursed.
(26.) No man to be admitted an undertaker but such as will readily take the oath of supremacy, and, as far as may be, the natives to be drawn to this course.
(27.) That every undertaker and native be bound before he has his patent to perform all the conditions of the plantation within 3 years. The bonds to be duly taken and kept in Ireland.
(28.) None of them to have power to alien their lands to one another without licence of the state, for so all may in time be drawn into the hands of some few of the undertakers, and the plantation come to nothing; nor to alien at all to the mere Irish, but upon forfeiture of the lands to the Crown.
(29.) None to be admitted to any lands but such as will in person dwell upon them, build, and plant.
(30.) No man to be admitted as undertaker in this plantation that has any lands in any other plantation.

I'm hoping I can share with you my love, not only for food itself, but for food without all the guilt that seems to come along with it. There's always a new diet that hits late-night infomercials and seems to promise perfection and a brand new life. I feel as though much of our society today has been convinced that you must be on a diet of some sort to be fit and healthy. Society has been taught that there are good foods and bad foods. I have learned through my personal experiences that that just isn't true. I love all foods in the form of cakes, cookies, fruits, and veggies. For years, I deprived myself of many of the foods I craved because I was taught by society that they were bad. I hope, through my experiences and knowledge, I can show you that there is a way out of the chains that yo-yo diets and eating disorders may have bound you by. I have never been more passionate about my life, especially because I feel like I've gained a brand new lease on it. I hope you join me on this journey!

1990 Acura Integra Hatchback GS 2dr Hatchback
My mom bought a 1990 acura integra GS in the summer of 1989. I had never seen anything like it. It was small and sleek and yet so nimble. I wanted it. .. ten years later. I got it.I always thought I'd only have it for a few years, and that turned into 13. Now it's old now and cosmetically falling apart, but the second you turn the key and take off, all the scuffs, scratches and dings disappear. It's the most fun I've ever had driving a car. It's like a cross fit champion wearing an awkward and ill fitting suit. It's time for me to finally move on. But this car never required anything but replacement parts that couldn't last the 250k miles I put on it. Most reliable car I've ever owned.
Interior aesthetics and ergonomics are still light years ahead of the chintzy Detroit models from the same era.
Turning ability and speed are great. Nimble on the freeway and just as elusive in heavy street traffic.
It's a 24 year-old car. So there's nothing to suggest for a car that's no longer made. Acura has gone backwards with horrible styling (why is does every car have a huge silve moustache now) and by eliminating the RSX. If you want a modern car to replace the Integra, you now have to go to Subaru and get a BRZ or to Ford, for the Focus st.
I had to sell my 05 Sentra SE-R Spec V due to rising insurance costs and many issues with reliability. Found this nice little Integra GS for only 2k. Interior was about the only thing showing some real age on the car. Engine has run great even when I take trips from North Carolina down to South Florida. 13-16 hours nonstop, not even thinking twice about whether or not the car will make it says A LOT about the quality of this automobile. I ended up putting some money into it to fix up a few pieces of trim and the blown speakers, but that was all the car really needed. The paint has held up well over the years, the design is very modern, and the gas mileage is a life saver.
Clean interior design, bought the car with the ultra rare dealer installed lip kit, 30+ mpg, and the auto belts. (Side note here, but there is a lifetime warranty on all the seat belts in the car, and I've since had the driver lap belt and passenger shoulder replaced under warranty!)
The cloth on the driver seat LOVES to disintegrate as the car get older due to friction, had to get new cover at junkyard. More horsepower would be nice, but I've since solved that with a nice B16A swap! And one other thing, try to seek out the center console on ebay, this car has NO cupholders.
I have driven the heck out of my car
and its survived ok.But I had a few
probs:a/c broke,axels replaced 3 times
in 3 yrs,alt,radi,trans grinds,clutch,
brakes replaced every 2k's,antenna,etc.
But I love my car.It has 250k but still
runs great.It had been wrecked before
so it isn't perfect,but it starts up
every time I turn the key.
Handling,torque,Honda reliability,sweet
b18a motor,resale value,seats hug you,
easy to customize,the fact your driving
an Acura!
Brakes wear out quick,seat tear easy.
Don't buy one from a teen boy,IT HAS
BEEN RACED. I should know, I've gotten
a $978 ticket for 127mph in 70mph zone!
This is one of the best cars I have
tested and driven daily. I have over
167,000 miles on it. I put 15,000 on
myself with no other problems than a few
front suspenstion bushings and a timing
belt. Beautiful car!!!
Drivers position, ease of repairs, and
Oil filer placement if poor. I suggest
getting a remote oil filter kit.
Awesome Car. Still love it after 13
years. Just starting to have to replace
some items, after 170,000 miles. Its
been a true pleasure to own.

I've been researching my family's history for about 22 years now. I love playing the detective and searching through old books for any piece of information that would get me closer to the truth.
I have a wonderful husband, daughter and son. Unfortunately, they do not share my passion. So I'm on my own. Good thing I like this stuff.
Thank you to all the people that have contributed to me finding my family roots: pictures, family trees, sharing information, etc. I couldn't have did it without you.
Happy searching everyone.

Claud Cutbirth
Hi, my name is Randall Cutbirth. I'm doing some research on my family history and have come to a dead end as to the father of Claud Cutbirth. I know his mother is Nancy Cutbirth. He was my great grandfather. His son Jesse Cutbirth was my grandfather. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I Debbie, Apparently I had clue what I was doing with the dates on that memorial LOL, the death cert is correct and I updated the memorial. I also found the obits for her and her husband Richard and added them as well.
Thanks for letting me know!

Hi Debbie, I'm not sure if the name was changed or if there was an error. I'll see if I can find more.

I declined your edit for a 10/17/1844 birth date because Susanna's death certificate lists a date of 2/17/1844. However, her calculated birth date (from age at death inscribed on her tombstone) is 2/17/1845. I went with the marker in this case.

Hi Debbie,

Best regards,

Alice Stroh's work
I've been working on correcting errors, adding missing graves, and photographing unphotographed headstones for Find A Grave in the Dauphin County area cemeteries that Alice Stroh originally recorded. There are so many errors in her work I have seen online that don't agree either with census/birth/death records or the actual headstones.
I am wondering if you know where a hard copy of her work can be found. Or if she did a lot of guessing? I have heard that she skipped any stone that wasn't easily read. I knew her in her old age, but I wasn't interested in headstones back then. Thanks.
