Dragging Makuro behind the the dragon and watching, Nyarurato checked on Makuro once again.
Nyani...~?! He's still alive but...
Nyarurato thought to herself
Whats wrong with him?
" asked one of the students, "
Did something happen to him or anything...?
I don't know.. My answer talker ability isn't working like it should on these few floors, meow~..
" replied Nyarurato
He's unconscious or something?
" asked another person, "
Saw ya' dragging him across the room and hes not even reacting! That gotta be one hell of a snooze!
Well, I don't really know, nya...
" she replied, once again.
The last time Nyarurato has seen something like this happening to Makuro was about 4 years ago, whereas he stayed in this inactive state for almost 6 days without food and water even after being healed repetitively with a high level healing spell (
Shin Saifojio
). In particular, this happened after the murderer was found for a particular event in a major corp. (
See: The Tales of Elyse
Most spellusers would have a particular "Backup mana pool". But in Makuro's case, his primary mana pool is huge while his backup mana pool is lacking in any content because he rarely store additional mana or even use the mana located in his backup mana pool. By nature's standards, if something is not used, it's not needed. Makuro's backup mana pool diminished in size while his much used primary mana pool grew exponentially.
In particular as stated before, sol mana is a particularly risky type of mana to use. The power of the spell might be overwhelming, but so is the required amount of mana and the ricochet effect that would that would affect the user. In particular as seen in a few posts ago:
"Okay guys, thanks." Leda was thankful and calm now that they had some sort of plan.
"Here goes." Leda breathed in deeply, before aming her staff at the magically sealed door. "Code, spell. Nullifier!" Leda shot out some glowing lines of black colored binary code at the door. The numbers began to dissapate when they made contact, and a loud sizzle followed by a click could be heard.
After that was done, Leda allowed herself to fall flat on her tushie (Ass/Arse ).
"Hopefully that did it, cause if we have to do that again I'm not guaranteeing Rydia and I's consciousness."
If this is the ricochet effect of using a higher level spell with normal mana, the ricochet effect of using sol mana would be many, many times worse in considering of the amount of mana and power it could consume and release in a single go. In simple terms, the spell size and the state of the spelluser would be in a direct inversely proportional graph. More power, more mental and physical damage the spelluser would take. There are ways for particular massive spells to inflict little or no ricochet effect on the spelluser.
//Case Return//
Come back to us, please, Makuro
thought Nyarurato, worriedly, as she watched Leht and everyone else take their place behind the dragon to cover themselves from the upcoming explosion.
//- Whatever happens next, you should:
- Fill up the names of the first person and the second person first :>
This is Kyuubey

Bryce Harper shrugs off national attention
: : General
Jim Ecker
Monday, August 10, 2009
Bryce Harper just wants to play ball against the best competition he can find. It's that simple. For him, anyway.
The cover of Sports Illustrated? No big deal. A special report on ESPN? Maybe he'll watch it, maybe not. Skipping his last two years of high school and starting college this summer? He can't wait to get started.
Bryce Harper is just 16 years old, and everyone seems to have an opinion about his decision to leave Las Vegas High School early -- two years early -- so he could enroll at the College of Southern Nevada, play baseball next spring and be eligible for the 2010 draft. If he'd stayed in high school, he wouldn't have been eligible for the draft until 2011.
Lots of people have offered their opinion about the benefits, or drawbacks, of leaving high school after their sophomore year for college. Math and science geniuses do it. They leave early for MIT. So why not a baseball prodigy who SI dubbed baseball's "Chosen One"?
Harper seems amused, or bemused, by all the fuss.
"I don't really care about what other people think," he said in an even tone, not meaning to be rude or insult anyone. "As long as it's OK with my family and my coaches and we're all OK on it, that's all that matters to me."
Harper is a 6-foot-3, 205-pound catcher with impressive skills on a baseball field. He's been selected to play in the Aflac All-American High School Classic this Sunday in San Diego. And by the way, he's carried a 3.6 GPA in high school, so it's not like he's a one-dimensional monster who just wants to pound a baseball. But he's pretty good at it, however. Pounding a baseball, that is.
Sports Illustrated put him squarely in the national spotlight with its flattering cover story on June 8, detailing his exploits, his 570-foot home run and his thoughts about the possibility of skipping his last two years in high school and heading to college. Shortly after the article appeared, he made it official and announced he was heading to college.
Lots of people read that article and formed their own conclusions. And Harper? It sounds like the magazine might be collecting dust somewhere.
"It wasn't really big for me," he maintained. "I didn't care about it that much. I don't know, it didn't really bother me that much. Everybody blew it up to more than I thought it was. It was just a magazine for me, it was just another article."
And here comes the kicker.
"I didn't read the article," he said. "I don't read articles about me, at all. I don't read that stuff."
Harper has registered for classes at the College of Southern Nevada. He'll take anthropology, psychology, a computer class and a couple of other classes that he couldn't remember off the top of his head. He'll be in classes with students who are at least two years older, but that doesn't seem to faze him a bit. He's looking for the next challenge in baseball, and he's also looking for the next challenge in school.
"High school just came easy to me. I was very bored with school," he said. "It wasn't fun for me. I just wanted to get out of there and do some college stuff and see if it would help me."
Harper said he plans to take his GED exam in October. He said he was allowed to enroll at the College of Southern Nevada without the GED, but said he won't be able to play baseball next season if he does not pass the high school equivalency exam.
"You can do it (take the test) any time you want," he said, "except I have to pass it to play."
Harper said it was his idea to leave Las Vegas High School early and enroll at the College of Southern Nevada, which he said is about a 20-minute drive from his home. He'll live at home and commute to the school.
"I hit .650 in high school this past year. I mean, it was boring for me. It wasn't something I wanted to do (anymore)," he said. "I really wanted to get into that college level and play with those college guys and stuff. And just going out and watching those guys play, I knew I could do it.
"It's going to be a great thing for me, and I'll get to play with my brother," he said. "It will be a great experience. It will be better competition and a bigger challenge for me."
Harper's brother, Bryan, was a freshman at Cal State Northridge this past year, but he's transferred to the College of Southern Nevada and will be teammates with Bryce next season. They were teammates once before, when Bryan was a senior at Las Vegas High and Bryce was a freshman.
Bryan is a pitcher, so the brothers will be battery-mates in college. "We work well together," Bryce reported.
Harper said his friends and teammates have been supportive of his decision to start college early. Supportive, and perhaps blase.
"My teammates could actually care less," he said. "My friends could actually care less. They don't really care about what I do or how I do it, because they know what I do is helpful to me. And so whatever is comfortable to me, they're all for it."
Harper has been quoted as saying he wants to make the major leagues by the time he's 18 or 19. He also wants to make the Hall and Fame and, when his career is done, he wants to be viewed as one of the greatest players of all time.
"I want to walk on the field and people go, 'Hey, there's the greatest hitter who ever lived.' I want that," he said. "Who wouldn't want to have that?"
Harper said he fell in love with baseball when he was 5 or 6 years old. "Just the smell of leather, the green grass, just waking up in the morning and smelling the dew," he said poetically. "All that stuff. There's nothing like baseball."
He's excelled at every level of the game, often against older competition. And he said his parents, Ron and Sheri Harper, fully support his decision to start college this summer.
"We sat down as a family and we talked it over. We talked it over a lot," he said. "It was a family decision, more than just my decision."
Some major league scouts think Harper would have been a high draft pick this past June as a high school sophomore, if he'd been eligible, and the consensus seems to be that he'll be a high pick next June.
Harper said he has a "Plan B," however, which would include going to a four-year college if something goes awry.
For now, Harper is catching his breath from a busy summer and getting ready to head to San Diego for the Aflac Classic at PETCO Park this Sunday. He'll report to San Diego on Wednesday to begin the week-long event, which includes visiting kids in a hospital.
"I'm really excited to do that," he said. "To be able to go and talk to the little kids and talk to just anybody about what their day is like and what their life is like, just hang out with them. I think that will be a great experience for all of us to be able to do that."

New Browns wide receiver Nate Burleson is a self-proclaimed "social butterfly," so it's not surprising that he went into great detail while discussing several topics Monday during a 20-minute conference call with beat writers.
Our story for Tuesday's newspaper focuses on the leadership Burleson promises to provide the Browns.
But leadership is hardly the only subject Burleson addressed. Below are some other highlights from the conversation.
Burleson visited the Miami Dolphins last week before meeting with the Browns on Saturday. Was there any hesitation on Burleson's part to join the Browns because of the firing of coach Rob Chudzinski after he spent just one season on the job and all of the turnover the franchise has undergone?: "No, there wasn't. I left Miami and at the time I was leaving Miami, they showed some interest. I have some great relationships over there. I sat there and I told them this is a football decision. So from a football standpoint, I have to go take this trip to Cleveland, plain and simple. And that was just me thinking as a football player. And I'm glad that I did. I was able to sit down and talk with everybody from the GM down to the receivers coach, had dinner with the head coach. Just got a great feel for what they're trying to do. And I think they understood what I wanted to do, and that was win games. At this point in my career, I can either look at it two ways. Year 12, I can say I want to get as many touchdowns and catches as I can, or I can say I want to be productive in a winning program. Injuries have kind of hurt my success over the last couple years in Detroit. In a half season I put up over 400 yards. I'm trying to give Cleveland a healthy Nate Burleson, and a healthy Nate Burleson in 16 games can tap dance around 1,000 yards easily. But more importantly, I can move the chains. Any team can utilize a guy that can move the chains. With the features that they already have and with some of these young guns that they have on this team, I'm just a guy that wants to be a part of it. I'm not going to come in and try to be the man. I just want to be one of the guys that's part of a great winning program."
What was his knowledge of Browns before he joined them?: "Luckily I didn't have to research much. I played against the Browns. We had some preseason battles. Even when I played with the Seahawks, I remember playing there during the regular season and then last year just competitive preseason games, always the most competitive preseason game, and that set the tone for what I thought about the Browns. When people would speak about certain teams, being that I've had experience a lot in the NFL and they'd mention the Browns and mention the record, I would say that's not an indication of how talented that team is mainly because I just finished a game with them. My body's feeling banged up and bruised. Very competitive. They talk a good game and go out and walk a good game. Closing out games and not getting wins is obviously something they've dealt with, and I say that from experience because I dealt with it in Detroit being that we were so talented at times, had the games won, were in position to win games. I see them as a team that's ready to take that next step. The talent is there. Not only is the talent there, there's been some great moves made this offseason. I'm sort of the end of the list as far as acquisitions, but they've done some things and have been one of the more aggressive teams in free agency. I'm looking forward to the draft and piecing together something than can be special. This isn't a program that's rebuilding. I'm not coming here to deal with losing, just like everybody else is. I think the people that are putting on this jersey this year want to win games. That's what it's all about."
What's the secret to playing 11 years in the NFL?: "It's just like anything else: it's going out and competing for opportunity. I've been in 11 years because I've been able to compete for every spot. In 11 years, I've been everything from a No. 1 to a No. 3. The thing I learned the most about being a successful offense is that it's less about a title and more about your production. So I can care less what they label me. What I'm more concerned about is helping this offense be productive and that's moving the chains, catching tough balls over the middle, being able to take some pressure off the other wide receivers and other playmakers on offense. If that comes in the tune of 60 catches, fine. If it comes in the tune of 80, 100, fine. Whatever the case is, it's more about being consistent and helping this team win. So I've got to come in and play. Nothing's going to be handed to me. I don't want it that way. I would never want it that way."
Burleson suffered a broken arm in bizarre fashion last year. How does that story go again?: "Happy Asker, he owns Happy's Pizza. It seems like there's 1,000 of them out there in Michigan. He's a great friend of mine, so I would usually go there on Sunday night and watch the game. We went there and we were relaxing, watching the game. I took home not just pizza. Pizza kind of stood out in the story, but everything from pizza to ribs and salad to pies for the family, for my wife and kids. I got on the freeway, doing what I usually do, which is poor driving with my knees and plugging in my music, thinking I'm on the freeway by myself, and once I reached over to make sure the pizzas weren't falling down, I looked up and there's a van in front of me. I thought I was alone on the road. Before you know it, I was trying to overcorrect, trying to avoid this van. I started left, went back right and then I tried to correct it one last time. I thought I had it. Once I faced the concrete median, I realized in my head, 'Oh no, man. You don't got this.' So I braced myself. I grabbed the steering wheel as hard as I could, and that's how I broke my arm. Because of the impact, my hand was wrapped so tightly around the steering wheel that when I hit the median, it pretty much fractured my arm. It was unfortunate because at that point, I feel like I was playing as consistent as any receiver in the league. I had a really good rhythm with [quarterback] Matt [Stafford], but everything happens for a reason, so I couldn't really get too mad. I've dealt with a few injuries in my time. The only frustrating thing is it wasn't on the field. Being that I'm a gladiator in the sport of football, when you do get injuries, you just hope it's in the arena of football. It was tough because when I went down I knew that the offense wasn't going to be the same. So it was less about me and knowing the impact my injury was going to have on my team. It was unfortunate to watch because it certainly did."
In a 2011 preseason game, Burleson scored a touchdown against the Browns in Cleveland and imitated LeBron James' talcum powder pre-game toss. James left the Cavaliers for the Miami Heat in the summer of 2010, so Browns fans didn't appreciate Burleson's celebration. Has he taken flak for it?: "No, not at all. The thing that's so crazy is I did the LeBron celebration a while ago, before LeBron made the switch to Miami. I don't know if people remember, but I did it when LeBron was still playing [in Cleveland]. Back then when I did it, it was when LeBron was still playing for Cleveland, so it was kind of a homage to the city of Cleveland and kind of the buzz surrounding the Cavaliers. And then when I came back it was just basically saying I'm still here. I still [like] to celebrate. But I haven't taken any flak. I'm pretty sure I will. I'm pretty sure I'll be at the grocery store one day and somebody's going to run up on me in the cereal section and I'm going to have to address it. But it's all out of good nature. When you've got competitive guys and you have young, feisty individuals like [Browns cornerback Joe] Haden talking trash, you've got to have something in your back pocket to quiet them, so that was it. But I think people that know me as a player, they know that I'm going to go out there and be competitive. Here's how I explain celebrations: As long as they're not excessive, they're OK, but one thing I can say about receivers who celebrate, you've got to give them credit because they planned on getting in the end zone, and that's what it's all about. Hopefully I can celebrate a lot more in a Browns jersey, and I'm pretty sure the fans would be OK with that."
What does Burleson make of the Browns' quarterback situation?: "Just watching it from a distance, I don't really know much about what decision they're going to make from a coaching and organization standpoint. The good thing is I put on a jersey, so I'm not paid to make those decisions. Brian [Hoyer], he did well in the games he played, but coming off an injury, I've had an ACL before, so I know the path that you take to get healthy, which everybody hopes for. All I can do as a receiver is make sure that the group I'm in is well prepared and whatever quarterback that we have, we create chemistry with. It's the NFL, so everybody at this level is talented. Now there are elite guys. There are the Tom Bradys and Peyton Mannings and Drew Brees. More importantly, if every quarterback is good at this level, what's going to make him really good is that chemistry with the receivers, being able to drop back and know not only where everybody is but what type of catch does each individual like, where can he place the ball, knowing when you can ad-lib a little bit and where certain guys are going to go. Those are the little things that are going to make the quarterback regardless. So for me, it's less about the quarterback situation and making sure whoever is throwing us the ball that we give him everybody opportunity to make sure that we make those plays."
What does Burleson think about the possibility of playing with a rookie quarterback?: "I've played with a vet quarterback. I've played with a young quarterback. The one thing that I do love about young quarterbacks is that they're fearless. Because you come in, you're leaving a college program where you almost feel like you had amassed control over your movements and the game and it was very slowed down to you, it's OK. There's a certain idea that they have about the NFL that suits them well because you don't want to over think it. You definitely don't want to over think this game. You want to come in and feel like you can do the same things in college that you can do in the league and that's perfectly fine, so for me it doesn't matter the years on the guy. It just matters if he's ready to play. Confidence is key. I don't think there's any more, any other position where confidence doesn't matter the most and rookies usually come in with a great deal of confidence at that position."
Burleson has made a bunch of NFL Network appearances. Is that his way of preparing for another career once he's finished playing football?: "Yeah, it is. I've always had some type of TV or radio show every single year I've been in the NFL, and I did it originally to kind of get my voice out there. And to be honest, I'm your typical wide receiver diva, so I love attention, but then as I got older towards the middle of my career, I realized this is something that I'm decent at. I'm OK. I can actually articulate my words and give people a different type of insight to a sport I played for so long and then these networks started to reach out to me over the last couple of years, showing a little bit of interest. It's something that I'm going to keep in my back pocket, you know just having a plan. You guys know just like I know, even though I've been blessed to play over a decade, you got to have an exit strategy, and I've been planning my exit strategy for some years now. I'm always going to be a football player. Football always comes first, but I'm going to be ready when the day comes and I'm not going to be surprised by what real life can bring to me. I'm going to bring it to real life and have a plan. So yeah, I'm interested in doing a little bit of TV, so if you guys want me to get on the radio and talk a little bit of trash, I can do that over the summer and during the season. Just let me know what's up."

2. But rather by this hero, who is recovering from mid-season heart surgery.
How can you not root for John Fox? He missed four games this season after undergoing open-heart surgery to replace his aortic valve and now that he's recovered he's pursuing his first Super Bowl title as head coach. But that doesn't make him a hero. What makes him a hero is that in 2012 he won a playoff game WITH TIM TEBOW AT QUARTERBACK.
3. Because rather than the macho yapping of the Seahawks and Niners, they wear their emotions on their sleeve — like real men — AND IT'S REALLY INTIMIDATING.
Knowshon Moreno's river of tears will haunt your dreams.
4. Because Peyton shills for fast food pizza — America's least hatable fast food group.
Fuck Papa John though.
5. Because Wes Welker redeemed himself from having been a hatable Patriot by getting his legs eaten by Komodo dragons.
6. Because Eric Decker and his wife Jessie James are, um, very nice to look at.
In addition to being really good at wide receiver-ing, Eric Decker is 50 percent of one of the NFL's most attractive couples.
7. Because they know that hard work pays off.
8. Because of Jack Fucking Del Rio.
He did a fine job leading the Broncos as interim head coach while Fox recovered from surgery. And his hair can turn water into wine.
9. Because their most controversial player, Von Miller, won't even step on the field during the playoffs.
Miller is one of the best pass rushers in the NFL, but violated the league's substance abuse policy in the offseason, which resulted in a four-game suspension. His suspension was upped to six games when news surfaced that he tried to cheat the drug test. But then he tore his ACL and is out for the year.
10. Because the state of Colorado is super chill. Some may even call it the chillest of states.
Home of winter sports and weed.
11. Because their kicker is a boss.
Matt Prater kicked at NFL record 64-yard field goal this season and then celebrated like Maximus from Gladiator. "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED [BY SKILLED SPECIAL TEAMS PLAY]???"
12. Because they set almost every offensive record imaginable and they weren't dicks about it….
Records this year for points, touchdowns, players with 10 or more touchdowns, passing first downs, games with 50+ points and points in the second half.
Unlike some other people we know.
13. Because Peyton Manning actually responds to random wedding invites…
14. And enjoys playing elaborate pranks on his teammates.
Peyton sent handsome wide receiver Eric Decker a fake invoice from their off-season work outs at Duke.
15. Because Champ Bailey deserves a Super Bowl ring.
Bailey is arguably the best defensive player currently playing in the NFL without a Super Bowl ring, and it's hard to think of someone deserves it more than the 13-time Pro Bowler.
16. Because the WORST thing about them is they created Tebow-mania…
17. But they realized their mistake and took care of that problem REAL QUICK.
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this post stated that Von Miller violated the NFL's performance enhancing drug policy. Miller was suspended for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

Sheriff's Lewis calls it a career
"Goodbye WayneThe public is invited to attend Lt. Wayne Lewis' farewell party Saturday, June 3 at the Sierra Country Club, which is off Libbey Road. The barbecue will be from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., followed by a farewell roast. Dress is casual. Anyone who wants to speak or has a story can contact Evan Tingstad at the Sheriff's Department, 678-4422. 'Guy who gets things done' is doneSheriff's Lt. Wayne Lewis calls it a careerThe sign on the wall of Wayne Lewis' disheveled office, covered in a flurry of paper and equipment, nearly says it all:Wayne's World, Life Safety Operations. If it slips, slides, floods, sinks, burns, explodes, drifts away or gets lost, then it's our gig.For the last 30 years, Lewis has carved a unique position for himself in the Island County Sheriff's Office. He's taken on so many different responsibilities over those years that nobody in the office seems certain what his official title is.He's a lieutenant. He's the fire marshal. His friends call him the admiral because he's in charge of the department's three-boat marine safety unit, as well as search and rescue. He's head of operations, which means he fixes what's broken.But his reign as the guy who gets stuff done, as Detective Russ Lindner describes him, will be over by the end of the month. He's finally retiring so that he can dedicate his time to his other many interests.Replacing him is going to be tough. Sheriff Mike Hawley said he'll probably have to divvy up Lewis' jobs to several different people. Wayne is so unique, he said. I don't have anyone who can do all that he does.Lindner, who will be taking over the marine safety unit after Lewis leaves, said he has an extremely large pair of shoes to fill.Several of his colleagues describes Lewis as a jack of all trades, but that seems almost like an understatement.In his free time, Lewis - who's been a scuba diver and an underwater photographer since 1963 - started his own charter boat service for diving called Keystone Marine. He works part-time for a blacksmith in Anacortes and plans to start his own blacksmithing business in Coupeville after he retires. During his summer vacations, he's been a river boat guide in both Canada and Idaho and has a river-guide license in both states. In addition, he raises parrots at his home.Lewis said his unusual number of extracurricular activities have been a good balance to his professional work, which can be morbid, sad or downright dangerous.People don't call a cop when they are having a good time, he said, so I got the chance to be around people who are there just to have fun.His career as a patrol deputy started out with a bang. He exchanged gunfire with one of the three men robbing a liquor store on Camano Island in 1971. A bullet hit him in the abdomen, going in one side and coming out the other.Later, Lewis and fellow deputy Ron Buckinger ran the photo and ID department. They photographed and analyzed crime scenes, took fingerprints and handled evidence.Lewis said there are some things he doesn't like to think about. He was friends with deputies William Heffernan and John Saxerud, who were shot and killed in the county jail in 1987. He had to photograph the scene. That still eats at me, he said.He was involved with the marine safety unit when it began in the early 1980s, and later started running it. In 1991, the county got rid of the emergency services manager and the fire marshal, replacing them with Lewis. On top of that, he became the operations lieutenant and the traffic safety officer.Lewis has served under seven different sheriffs through both good and bad times. While the department was being ripped apart by internal strife and allegations of sexual harassment in the mid 1990s, Lewis said he simply stayed out of the in-house politics by staying his friendly, laid-back self.I've never met anyone who doesn't like him, Lindner said. He always has a helping hand. He's an all-around likeable guy. His friends of the department say they've amassed a lot of stories about Lewis - most of which aren't fit for a family newspaper - and plan to roast him at his retirement party June 3.Chief Criminal Deputy Evan Tingstad, for example, tells a story about a small earthquake that rocked the island back in 1985. Sheriff Owen Burt's first reaction was to drive to Lewis' house. He stood in the front yard and yelled, We've had an earthquake, we've had an earthquake, until Lewis leaned out of his door and calmly said, it'll be OK. The sheriff ran to Lewis for help, Tingstad explained with a laugh, just like everyone else did. "

Hideo Tokoro attempts to submit Brad Pickett with a heel hook. Photo courtesy of Fight Entertainment Group.
A featherweight bout between K-1 veteran Hideo Tokoro and former DEEP title challenger Takeshi Yamazaki has been added to the undercard for Monday's DREAM.5 event, which will take place at the Saitama Super Arena in Japan.
The promotion officially announced the fight earlier today.
Tokoro turned heads at the DREAM middleweight grand prix quarterfinals in May, winning a hard-fought unanimous decision over Strikeforce veteran Darren Uyenoyama in one of '08's current 'fight of the year' candidates. Prior to that, he was submitted by Kiyoshi Tamura at K-1 Premium Dynamite!! 2007 on New Year's Eve.
Yamazaki, who has fought primarily in DEEP and Shooto, is currently riding a four-fight winning streak that extends back to February of last year. He most recently won an unanimous decision over Shoji Maruyama at DREAM.3 in May and submitted Daiki Ozaki with a rear naked choke at a February Cage Force show.

 | Module_Overview_Goal =
 The Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) is an open framework to help organizations formulate and implement a strategy for software security that is tailored to the specific risks facing the organization. The resources provided by SAMM will aid in:

 Evaluating an organization's existing software security practices

 Building a balanced software security assurance program in well-defined iterations

 Demonstrating concrete improvements to a security assurance program

 Defining and measuring security-related activities throughout an organization

 | Content =

 SAMM was defined with flexibility in mind such that it can be utilized by small, medium, and large organizations using any style of development. Additionally, this model can be applied organization-wide, for a single line-of-business, or even for an individual project.

 The foundation of the model is built upon the core business functions of software development with security practices tied to each. The building blocks of the model are the three maturity levels defined for each of the twelve security practices. These define a wide variety of activities in which an organization could engage to reduce security risks and increase software assurance. Additional details are included to measure successful activity performance, understand the associated assurance benefits, estimate personnel and other costs.

What is in this article?:
- 2014 California cotton acreage drop may not be as severe
- Pima salvation
- California cotton acreage may decline once again in 2014, but maybe not as much as many are predicting.
Pima salvation
Fortunately for California, Pima has been cotton's salvation.
Current registered export sales of Pima for the 2013/14 crop year total about 400,000 bales. This level of sales is around 100,000 more than sold at this time last season, when Pima exports reached a record level.
"Pima prices are very attractive, and I am very optimistic," he says. Even with prices like that, Pima acreage is "still a question of water. Even if prices get dramatically higher, farmers with limited water supplies are still going to use it for trees."
California's water supply picture is like a patch-work quilt. How much water a farmer has depends on where he farms. There are farms with solid riparian rights and adequate, inexpensive water for all crops. There might be cotton acreage increases in those areas. However, large areas of the West are now expecting no surface water deliveries from state and federal contractors.
China continues to be a strong buyer, as well as an enigma for U.S. and world cotton. The Chinese are sitting on about 60 percent of the world's short staple stocks it bought from local growers for roughly $1.45 per pound over the past several years. McDermott does not believe China will dump much of it on the world market and send prices plummeting because it would only hurt the Chinese government. He referred to the large Chinese Reserve stocks as "a bamboo ceiling that hangs over the market".
There is talk of China changing their financial support of local cotton growers from a purchase program to some form of indirect support, not tied to cotton production. That could result in lower cotton acreage/production and, hopefully, a more "market friendly" world supply picture.
The Chinese cotton stocks were in a similar situation in the mid-1990s. "They were not as open as they are now and that makes a difference in the impact on the market. The Chinese government publishes on a daily basis what it has in reserve down to the decimal point."
China's government does not buy what little Extra Long Staple is produced there. It is grown primarily in the Xinjiang province. McDermott said ELS acreage has been down significantly there in the past two seasons and that has helped American Pima sales.China is the No. 1 buyer for American Pima.
While Chinese mills are big buyers of American raw cotton, they have been importing increasingly more yarn because of the high priced domestic raw cotton, noted McDermott. Much of that yarn is spun elsewhere in the world from U.S. cotton. This makes China an even larger consumer of U.S. cotton than reported via raw cotton sales.
"China's consumption is estimated at 36 million bales, but some place it at three-million bales per year higher, suggesting that Chinese stocks could be overstated by millions of bales" McDermott said.
California producers are reluctant to lock in 2014 prices with the uncertainty about water. They may wait until next June or July when they have a better handle on exactly what's out there.
World cotton consumption is rebounding and that's good news. After peaking at 123 million bales in 2007, it fell to 103 million in 2011. In the current season, world usage is expected to reach 110 million bales.

Let's collaborate to create a three-to-five year strategic employee benefits plan that meets your short- and long-term goals.
The concept of employee benefits has grown and changed. Where medical benefits were once considered the only kind that mattered, the range of benefits you can offer employees today extends well beyond medical and the standard electives such as dental and vision care. Your HUB advisor will work
with you to explore the possibilities and help you craft a comprehensive offering that meets your employees' needs and supports your business goals.
Let's design the plan that's right for your employee population.
The Employer Mandate of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) requires employers to offer eligible employees minimum affordable health care coverage, but there are many ways to achieve compliance. We'll work with you to benchmark the competitiveness of your current
plan and explore the wide range of medical plan options that HUB's relationships with national carrier and provider networks can make available to you.
Your HUB advisor will work with you to design an optimized employee benefits plan that includes the ancillary benefits — dental, vision, life and more — that offer the greatest value to your employees at the lowest cost to your business.
The evidence is in. There is a strong correlation between your employees' oral health and their overall health. An employee benefits solution from HUB can give you access to indemnity dental plans, Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO) or Dental Health Maintenance
Organization (DMO) dental benefits plans.
Vision care benefits are valuable to an aging workforce. You can show your shared concern with voluntary benefits coverage for professional vision care services and corrective lenses.
Life insurance is a genuine way to demonstrate your commitment to your employees and their families. HUB can help you obtain group or individual life insurance coverage that can provide security for your employees' families.
A disabling illness, accident or injury can have a devastating impact on individuals and their dependents. Disability Insurance provides your employees with income protection in the event that they cannot work due to a disabling illness or accident.
In today's world, a one-size-fits-all approach to employee
benefits doesn't work anymore. Let's work together to develop a
personalized benefits portfolio that meets the unique needs of your employees
without impacting your bottom line.
If you haven't reviewed your voluntary benefits lately, now
is a great time to learn more about how we can help you develop a program that
complements your core benefits and meets the diverse needs of your workforce.
Let's enhance your voluntary

Casey urges US Justice Department to convene crime summit in Reading
City has already recorded 12 homicides in 2012, compared to 13 in 2011
WASHINGTON - U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., is urging the U.S. Department of Justice to help law enforcement combat a recent wave of violent crime in Reading.
Pennsylvania's senior senator is asking the department to hold a summit in the city, with experts on combating violent crime sharing their best practices and devising a plan to help local law enforcement and government leaders crack down on crime.
"Recent incidents of violent crime, coupled with long term trends, are a concern for communities across the greater Reading area, so it's time for the Department of Justice to step up and provide assistance to protect our communities," said Casey.
In a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, Casey cited recent incidents of homicides and assaults that have plagued the community. Reading has already recorded 12 homicides through the first seven months of 2012, compared to just 13 in all of 2011, police said.
"Despite some successes in the past, a number of crimes this year continue to alarm area citizens and point to yet another deeply concerning trend," Casey said. "I look forward to working with the department to develop creative solutions and identify best practices to address this ongoing issue."
Casey also cited in his letter to Holder a report last year by the National Drug Intelligence Center that found Reading to be emerging as one of the most prominent cocaine markets in the eastern United States.
Mayor Vaughn Spencer, D-Reading, and police Chief Bill Heim held a news conference on July 18, announcing that the city was in the process of arranging a crime summit. Spencer said he wants to meet with state and federal officials to see what additional resources the city can get to fight crime.

Ditch Those Pre-season Blues
Despite the colder temps and vigorous snow dancing, Jack Frost has yet to make his official entrance for the season. This has caused a pandemic to spread rapidly and many of us have caught it… the pre-season blues, the winter itch, an insatiable craving for fresh pow; whatever you want to call it, winter is on the brain! While the cure for pre-season blues is still in the R&D phases, I've gathered a few tips from all the seasoned pros here at Sierra that will provide some temporary relief and prepare you for a snow-filled season ahead!
1) Get your gear in check
There's nothing worse than being unprepared for the first day of the season. Don't be that guy/girl, scrambling for your other glove and hastily trying to apply a fresh coat of wax to your skis while all your friends are snagging that coveted first chair of the season.
Pull those boards/skis out from the back of the closet and show them a little love. I prefer to take my board into the pros at one of the many Powderhouse locations in South Lake for a full tune up this time of year. While you're at it, unpack all of your winter gear – from base layers, to goggles, outerwear, and gloves; make sure it's all in good shape and treat yourself to some fresh digs if you can spring it. Wouldn't hurt to get your Sierra Season Pass on lock as well! FYI, our Season Pass Office is open Monday-Friday to get you set up.
2) Go Outside
Check a couple more hikes off your list or get your adrenaline pumping with a few mountain bike laps before we fall into winter. Life is always better outside, so get out there and enjoy it!
If the cold temps (or your desk job) are keeping you indoors, you'll have to use a little creativity to get blood pumping, but your quads will thank you the first time you slash up a fresh pow line. Our General Manager, John Rice, recommends wall sits and cookies to get those quads burning at the office.
3) Prep for the first big storm
The two smartest things you can do to prep for winter is tune up your snow blower and purchase some new snow tires before the first big storm hits. If you don't own a snow blower, I suggest making some baked goods for your closest neighbor who does! A little baked love (or a 6 pack) can go a long way in this little mountain town!
4) Practice sacred rituals
Skiers and snowboarders tend to be very superstitious with all sorts of wild rituals to entice the snow gods. Breakin' it down with your best snow dance, beltin' out your loudest snow calls, and washing your car are all great ways help inspire the snow gods to bring in the goods!
5) Gather and celebrate
When you come together with good friends and family who share your passion for snow, all your worries quickly melt away. Add in some rockin' live music, killer food and drink specials, and a dodgeball tournament and you've got one heck of a pre-season party! Join us at Steamers this Thursday as we gather and celebrate the lifestyle that unites us all. The party starts at 7pm with passholder appreciation from 6-7. See you on the court this Thursday!

The Anthony Wayne Bridge, or High Level Bridge, across the Maumee River will be closed to eastbound traffic starting Saturday morning at 7:00 AM. The bridge will reopen Monday, June 6, at 6:00 AM.
The bridge is being closed for joint repair.
The detour is Summit Street to Main Street/Cherry Street, across the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Bridge, to Oak Street, to Woodville Road.
ODOT has a massive refurbishment project scheduled for the Anthony Wayne Bridge in 2013. The rehabilitation of the bridge will take two years and cost approximately $50 million. The bridge has been deemed structurally insufficient by at least one professional engineering group.
Have you observed the deterioration of the Anthony Wayne Bridge? Do you worry when you cross this bridge because of its condition?

Compare great Subaru Air Conditioning Service prices in Stalybridge with Who Can Fix My Car.
Good experience.
A first class service from this garage from start to finish. The price for the clutch replacement in my opinion was unbeatable; repairs turned around in a day with door to door delivery. I will certainly go back to them and recommend them to anyone. I also dealt with a lady called Sam who was friendly, very helpful and again ensured this job was carried out for a great price with little or no inconvenience to myself. Thankyou Sean
Great service, efficient and job done to a high standard. Would recommend!
great service!
They are fraud they check my car for 10 sec and they say pay 30 pounds They did not diagnostic I dont recommend this garage
OK, but when I got back home and opened the bonnet (same day), I noticed the cap on the screen wash reservoir was broken.
Great service very good price. Would definitely use again.
Would recommend this garage
The two specialist guys(Gareth & Terry) are the best in town. My car was giving me problems all the time and I have been around different garages with wrong diagnostics and wasted money. I found these guys on the net,correct diagnostics was done,correct part ordered and car has been fixed. I cannot thank them enough and now I have a peace knowing that I can always pop in for them to do all my car work. Cost was much reasonable and the guys are genuine and very nice to talk to. I will give them an excellent rating as they know their stuff.
Very helpful and great service. Would definitely use again
good and cheap service. Got MOT done for £27.5. I gave 4 star as I had to wait 2 and half hours.
Very pleased with the overall experience, excellent customer service and very well priced for a quality garage.
The price was very good for a dealership. I thought to myself when they get my car in thet will tell me it needs loads of work doing it, this is exactly what happened. I ended up having a new battery and having some pipe replaced that had split in the engine. I was quoted £103.00 for the original job and i ended up paying £228.00.
More than happy, very helpful
Did not diagnose the problem. Paid 72GBP just for checking error codes and erasing and topping up oil.
Didn't get the call as promised
We are a family run business with over 25 years experience in the motor trade. Based in dukinfield - right next door to morrisons , we have 8 mechanics, and two MOT bays. We are diagnostic specialists with dealer level diagnostic equipment. We pride ourselves on our customer service and professionalism.

Reviews for Maple Oatmeal Bread
"Soft bread with a slightly sweet taste. A new family favorite. We made in a Breadman Ultimate bread maker. We used white whole wheat King Arthur flour."
"It made a dense loaf, as others have said but the flavour was really nice and made good toast!"
"maybe i did something wrong but my bread came out short and extremely dense. It did however make a good french toast."
"My favorite bread machine recipe! Nice dense loaf and excellent flavor!"
"My bread machine broke, so I was a bit disappointed in the results. How would you adjust the recipe without a bread machine?"
"Excellent and easy! Very moist, with a subtle flavor. Perfect bread for breakfast!"
"This bread was great. I am diabetic so I changed the maple syrup to sugar free breakfast syrup and saved about 4 grams of carbs."

Recap: '24' Day 8 - '2 a.m. to 3 a.m.'
After a season of mediocre episodes punctured by the occasional exciting action scene or a particular vigorous line reading of "DAMNIT!" by Kiefer Sutherland, "24" delivered it's most polished hour of the season. While no means perfect, it slipped in some solid drama, good tension, the introduction of a potentially great new character, and a twist that I didn't see coming a mile away. Did it salvage the season? No. But as an hour of entertainment, it acquitted itself quite admirably. Onto the recap!
[Full recap of Monday's (March 8) "24" after the break...]

Who says Lakers-Celtics aren't exciting?
So Kobe Bryant said the Lakers can beat the Celtics a second time this season. Should win, he said.
But what is everyone else saying? Let's just say, the Celtics aren't going to roll over and hand Kobe the keys to TD Banknorth Garden.
"Playing a great team like the Lakers, we definitely wanted to get this one because we know we have a tough one (next)," Paul Pierce told reporters after the Celtics' victory against Philadelphia.
When the Lakers and Celtics met the first time this season, Boston was riding a 19-game winning streak which came to an end in a 92-83 loss at Staples Center. The Celtics (41-9) bring a 12-game streak into tonight's game.
"We have extra motivation this time because they broke our streak the first time," Pierce said.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers also is looking foward to a rematch, calling it one of those "fun games."
Ray Allen wasn't as guarded in his excitement, saying it will "definitely (be) a playoff atmosphere."
You won't find the same enthusiasm in the Lakers locker room. Either the loss of Andrew Bynum has tempered their outlook for another victory against their dreaded rivals, or they are great actors. (It is L.A. after all).
"Honestly, it's just another game," Lamar Odom said. "It's not like we are going to play them in a seven-game series and it starts tomorrow."
Phil Jackson, though, didn't mask his feelings about the game/Celtics/need for victory.
"To be not only beaten, but humiliated, in a game like that to end the series, and have them celebrating and throwing [stuff] all over the court, disrupting the game with 2 1/2 minutes left to go, it was in-your-face and everybody remembers that," Jackson said. "There's a certain element of, you know, we have some serious work to do."
