The Native American Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Assistance (NACA) Program is a competitive award program through which financial assistance and technical assistance awards are given to invest in and build the capacity of Native CDFIs that serve Native communities lacking adequate access to affordable financial products and services. The CDFI Fund defines "Native Communities" as Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities. Financial Assistance (FA) awards support the financing activities of Native CDFIs certified by the CDFI Fund, and are provided in the form of loans, grants, deposits, and equity investments. The awardee is required to match the CDFI Fund's award dollar-for-dollar with funds from a non-federal source. Technical Assistance (TA) grants may be used to acquire products and services, and are typically awarded to Native Communities seeking to start a new Native CDFI or to increase the capacity of an existing CDFI.
Follow this link for contact information:
Eligibility: Business Eligibility for CDFI Programs: Eligibility for the financial products and services offered by Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) is determined by each CDFI based on the needs of the targeted communities and populations that they serve. CDFI Entity Eligibility for Development Programs: Native American CDFI Applicants may apply as either a Financial Assistance (FA) applicant or a Technical Assistance (TA) applicant, but not both. If an Applicant applies for both types of awards, it is in the sole discretion of the CDFI Fund to disqualify the Applicant from competing for either an FA award or a TA grant or to decide to give the Applicant either an FA award or a TA grant. To be eligible for a FA award, the Applicant must be a certified/certifiable Native CDFI and can apply for up to and including $750,000 in FA funds. To be eligible for a TA grant, the Applicant must be a certified Native CDFI, a certifiable Native CDFI, an emerging Native CDFI, or a Sponsoring Entity, and can apply for up to $150,000 for capacity-building activities.

He should never have gone back in the game against the Ravens.
The thing that pissed me off the most about the situation, Cousins played well enough to help them win 2 games getting them into the playoffs. Why risk the health of your franchise QB. That was a terrible decision IMO. I hope RG3 fully recovers because we owe him a butt kicking in the future.
The real answer to this question is "1 point"
Yeah that was stupid of the Skins HC. You don't mess with unbelievable talent like RG11 who could even get faster cause he is not even at his prime and did great things this year. Only 5 ints is not bad.

Resume: The paper represents an exploratory study aimed at developing a theoretical framework that supports the elaboration of efficient collaborative purchasing (CP) strategies in the healthcare system. We identify prerequisites for developing an efficient CP approach in the healthcare system. A case study of Danish National Healthcare system is presented. The case indicates that trust and stakeholders' commitment are key elements for successful CP initiatives. Moreover, simplifying procedures for collaborative sourcing and service management is crucial in sourcing of complex medical equipment. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8542

Human Capital Inputs and the Survival of New StartupsRocha, Vera; Van Praag, Mirjam; Carneiro, Anabela (Frederiksberg, 2015)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper studies three related questions: To what extent otherwise similar startups employ different quantities and qualities of human capital at the moment of entry? How persistent are initial human capital choices over time? And how does deviating from human capital benchmarks influence firm survival? The analysis is based on a matched employer-employee dataset and covers about 17,500 startups in manufacturing and services. We adopt a new procedure to estimate individual benchmarks for the quantity and quality of initial human resources, acknowledging correlations between hiring decisions, founders human capital, and the ownership structure of startups (solo entrepreneurs versus entrepreneurial teams). We then study the survival implications of exogenous deviations from these benchmarks, based on spline models for survival data. Our results indicate that (especially negative) deviations from the benchmark can be substantial, are persistent over time, and hinder the survival of firms. The implications may, however, vary according to the sector and the ownership structure at entry. Given the stickiness of initial choices, wrong human capital decisions at entry turn out to be a close to irreversible matter with significant survival penalties.

Dahl, Michael; Van Praag, Mirjam; Thompson, Peter (, 2014)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: We study possible motivations for co-entrepenurial couples to start up a joint firm, using a sample of 1,069 Danish couples that established a joint enterprise between 2001 and 2010. We compare their pre-entry characteristics, firm performance and post-dissolution private and financial outcomes with a selected set of comparable firms and couples. We find evidence that couples often establish a business together because one spouse ? most commonly the female ? has limited outside opportunities in the labor market. However, the financial benefits for each of the spouses, and especially the female, are larger in co-entrepreneurial firms, both during the life of the business and post-dissolution. The start-up of co-entrepreneurial firms seems therefore a sound in-vestment in the human capital of both spouses as well as in the reduction of income inequality in the household. We find no evidence of non-pecuniary benefits or costs of co-entrepreneurship URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8961

The Value of Coworker Mobility in Pushed and Pulled-driven StartupsRocha, Vera; Carneiro, Anabela; Varum, Celeste (Frederiksberg, 2016)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: By combining the insights from the widespread research on entrepreneurial spin-offs and from the emerging literature on hiring choices in startups, we investigate the role of coworker mobility in pushed and pulled spin-offs survival. We address two main gaps identi ed in prior research: the relative inattention paid to other human resources beyond the founder, and the hetero-geneous context where employee startups may be established. We use a rich matched employer-employee dataset for Portugal, and estimate a multi-stage model addressing the issues of self-selection in entrepreneurship and endogeneity in recruitment choices. We find that spin-offs hiring coworkers from the parent fi rm survive longer. The survival bonus resulting from coworker mobility is higher in pushed-driven startups. This work has important implications for broader theories on the role of labor mobility in organizational outcomes of arrival fi rms, and also for developing theories on labor markets for entrepreneurship. It also constitutes an important step towards unpacking the mechanisms through which mobile human capital affects the performance of receiving firms. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9307

The Influence of Strategic Interest Alignment on External Knowledge SearchØrding Olsen, Anders (Frederiksberg, 2015)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper analyzes how external search is affected by strategic interest alignment among knowledge sources. I focus on misalignment arising from the heterogeneous effects of disruptive technologies by analyzing the influence of incumbents on 2,855 non-incumbents? external knowledge search efforts. The efforts most likely to solve innovation problems obtained funding from the European Commission?s 7th Framework Program (2007-2013). The results show that involving incumbents improves search in complementary technologies, while demoting it when strategic interests are misaligned in disruptive technologies. However, incumbent sources engaged in capability reconfiguration to accommodate disruption improve search efforts in disruptive technologies. The paper concludes that the value of external sources is contingent on more than their knowledge. Specifically, interdependence of sources in search gives rise to influence from individual strategic interests on the outcomes. More generally, this points to the need for understanding the two-way influence of sources, rather than viewing external search as one-way knowledge accessing. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9258

Leisure Time, Hobbies and Organizational CreativityDavis, Lee N.; Hoisl, Karin; Davis, Jerome Dean (Copenhagen, 2014)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper explores the link between employee leisure time activities and the value of their creative output. We argue that leisure time activities ? both in general, and specifically with regard to the employee?s choice of hobbies ? both illuminate and shape the attitudes and attributes the employee brings to work. Based on Woodman et al.?s (1993) ?interactionist perspective? on organizational creativity, supplemented by literature on search and knowledge re/combination, we explore whether leisure time activities can span the creative space between the employee?s home and workplace ? given the range of multi-level inputs that may also contribute to workplace creativity. We use original survey data comprising 4,138 inventions from 21 European countries, the United States and Japan, in all major industries. Organizational creativity is measured by the asset value of the patent on the associated invention, and the degree of radicalness of the invention. We find that employees who continue to think about their workplace research while away from work produce more valuable inventions. Diversity of hobbies, more socially oriented hobbies, and more focused hobbies are also positively related to invention value. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9045

LITCHFIELD -- John McGowan's defense began Thursday in Litchfield Superior Court with a turn towards the forensic -- and the political.
The former Danbury mayoral candidate and current Bethel public access television host, accused of sexually assaulting a former girlfriend at his home in October 2008, began presenting his defense after the prosecution rested early in the day's proceedings. If convicted of first-degree sexual assault, McGowan could face up to 20 years in prison.
McGowan's defense revolves around the question of consent. His accuser, addressed as Jane Doe, testified that a "tension-breaker" game of strip poker turned into increasingly violent oral sex. Doe said she tried to escape, only to be allegedly restrained and forcibly sodomized by McGowan. While McGowan does not deny that the two had sex, he said the sex was consensual.
Forensic biologist Jane Cordraro, of the state's forensic lab in Meriden, testified about the presence of blood or semen on several pieces of evidence, including toilet paper and articles of clothing, submitted to the lab in March 2010. While Cordraro testified that she did not find sperm or seminal fluid on the clothing, a piece of toilet paper submitted to the lab tested positive for seminal fluid.
Cordraro could not identify the origin of the semen, nor could she state whether it came from consensual sex. However, Cordraro said it is not her job to test for DNA. Instead, her job is to use her training to find certain fluids, and if they are present, those pieces of evidence are forwarded to a DNA analyst. In this case, the DNA analyst to test the samples, Christine Roy, will be called as a rebuttal witness by the prosecution.
"In forensic biology," Cordraro said, "I just identify bodily fluids, then submit it to the DNA section."
Cordraro said that two samples taken from the toilet paper tested positive for one sperm cell and a protein in seminal fluid. McGowan asked Cordraro during redirect if she could identify whether the sperm or fluid came from non-consensual sex, but Cordraro said that judgment call was "out of my expertise."
Another of McGowan's witnesses, therapist and holistic health counselor Chris Salonia, was disallowed as an expert witness following questions from senior assistant state's attorney David Shannon about her training. Salonia is currently waiting to testify as an expert witness in a civil suit against the estate of Dr. George Reardon, who allegedly molested hundreds of boys while working as a doctor, and St. Francis Hospital, where Dr. Reardon worked as an endocrinologist.
Responding to questions about her background as a therapist, Salonia claimed that "Western medicine has not found the way to healing" when it comes to sexual assault trauma. Instead, Salonia described pharmaceutical remedies as "chemotherapy" in contrast to her practice of rebirthing and emotional freedom techniques.
"Prozac and alcohol are chemotherapy?" asked Shannon.
"Yes, they're chemical therapy," Salonia responded.
Salonia was eventually permitted as a character witness after Judge James P. Ginocchio ruled that her experience treating post-traumatic stress disorder, as well as drug and alcohol dependency, would not make her suited to be an expert witness. Additionally, Salonia stated she would testify that the injuries described by Doe were inconsistent with sexual assault, but Ginocchio ruled that was a medical question for medical experts.
"What I would be testifying to is when you're sexually assaulted from behind, it's not how she described," Salonia said. "You would need to have multiple arms, and John McGowan would need to have a penis like a boa constrictor."
After attesting to McGowan's character, though, Salonia's testimony quickly veered into the political arena. Salonia and McGowan both belong to the Republic of the United States of America, as do the three character witnesses following Salonia. Shannon asked about Salonia's membership during cross-examination -- one of the references Salonia cited for McGowan's character was a trip the two took to the Republic of the United States of America's Continental Congress in Utah -- touching off a prolonged discussion of the group's beliefs.
Salonia asserted the Republic's belief that the Constitution was replaced by former President Abraham Lincoln in 1861, transforming the country into a "corporation." Salonia and McGowan are both "senators" in the "Connecticut Republic," one of 50 groups claiming to be part of the Republic of the United States of America. Considering the state of the Constitution, Salonia stated, the Connecticut judicial system has no jurisdiction in the case, because according to "the original Constitution," McGowan's accuser must bring the charges against McGowan, not the state of Connecticut.
"The state is accusing me of sexually assaulting the state?" asked McGowan of Salonia, who responded in the affirmative.
McGowan continued by asking Salonia if the case was consequently unconstitutional, since all of the paperwork for the case read "the state of Connecticut vs. John McGowan." Salonia concurred.
"They're not the injured party," Salonia said, "so they have no jurisdiction."
Ginocchio promptly shut down McGowan's redirect questions about the Republic's beliefs, but fellow sovereign citizens testified to McGowan's character. Some of McGowan's fellow Connecticut Republic members, including character witness Deborah Jones, make money by selling health products online and through multi-level marketing companies.
"You guys make money together by selling health products online?" Shannon asked Sheri Snow, another witness. Snow responded that "I'm not a part of that."
Only two potential witnesses remained after Michelle Scalpi, the last of McGowan's character witnesses, testified -- DNA analyst Roy, who will be called as a rebuttal witness - and McGowan himself. Scalpi finished testifying just before noon and the six-member jury was excused to discuss the rest of McGowan's witnesses.
However, McGowan was still undecided about whether or not he would testify, requesting time to mull over the decision. Ginocchio gave him one more day to present his jury charge, but fully expected to complete testimony the morning of August 9. The trial is well ahead of schedule, and rather than call for a lunch recess when court would immediately adjourn for the day, Ginocchio instead dismissed the jury for the day, adjourning court until August 9 at 9:30 a.m.
Closing arguments are expected no later than August 10.

Jack Horner:
Building a dinosaur from a chicken
Renowned paleontologist Jack Horner has spent his career trying to reconstruct a dinosaur. He's found fossils with extraordinarily well-preserved blood vessels and soft tissues, but never intact DNA. So, in a new approach, he's taking living descendants of the dinosaur (chickens) and genetically engineering them to reactivate ancestral traits — including teeth, tails, and even hands — to make a "Chickenosaurus".

SECC Spotlight: Boysville fosters brighter future
By Lynn Gosnell
Special Projects Writer
(Oct. 26, 2007)--Founded in 1943 to serve orphaned or homeless boys found sleeping in downtown San Antonio's Travis Park, Boysville (SECC code number: 415020) has expanded to provide a safe and caring environment for boys and girls of all ages from various backgrounds.
Today's headlines

Article tools
Located on a pastoral campus off Loop 1604, Boysville currently serves than 125 children, from infants to age 18 and beyond. A key program at Boysville is its transitional living program, which serves residents who are high school-aged and older. Boysville provides assistance for these young adults to attend technical schools or colleges like UTSA.
Gemma, a UTSA freshman who lives in the UTSA residence facility, Chaparral Village, is grateful for the support she receives from Boysville.
"Boysville is a normal home," she said. "It helps kids go off to college by helping us buy our books, provide room and board and clothing."
Gemma (a pseudonym, at her request) is interested in studying criminal justice and eventually attending law school. When she speaks of her ambition to become an attorney, Gemma sounds confident and mature. But she didn't always have these goals.
"Before I went to Boysville, college wasn't a goal. They helped me accomplish it," she said.
Throughout its history, Boysville's mission has remained constant: to provide a safe environment for children in crisis so that they can become responsible adults. Boysville provides food, shelter, clothing, medicine, community, access to education and -- most importantly -- hope for the future.

Re: Pizza Dough
Sainsbury's do in fact sell a oo flour in a pink bag called pasta flour so it may even have some semolina flour it it.. But there are better genuine italian flours well worth the trouble to find. The 00 flour makes an enormous difference. With it the dough gets perfectly elastic, does not break up and behaves beautifully especially when hand making pizza (no eggs) or pasta.
A few pointers.
for pizza use tipo00 flour,it makes the difference between "all right" and great.
cut down the yeast, it tastes bad and the dough should left to mature for a min. 4 hours so you don't want a big puff ball. 3g is enough per pound.
Use best possible salt, and two tsp per pound/half kilo flour
don't cook the tomato sauce, use as fresh high quality San Marzano chopped tomatoes. tinned from sainsbury's
Cook it hot as you can. Jamie's pizza oven does it in 90sec, that's 60sec @near 400degC then held up to the roof for a short 700+degC blast.
In a normal kitchen, recreate this at the top of your hottest oven, preferably one with top and bottom heaters, on a preheated pizza stone. You can actually get better result from a halogen oven.
for pasta use the same tipo 00 flour. the correct way to measure egg/flour ratio is to simply add whole eggs to a well in the flour, no water nor oil, until wet enough.. more flour or an egg as required.
Try not to roll a pizza, just stretch and prod gently by fingertips.
My best pizza recipe is 500g tipo oo, 10g best flake salt, preferably Isle de Re fleur de sel. Mix in 325g warm water but leave to soak half an hour. then add Only 3g yeast, mix till elastic, five mins.
make into six balls to leave covered in the fridge for even a week to use as required

Re: Pizza Dough
I usually make pizza dough with strong bread flour, but I've had success with plain (all-purpose) flour and also with half plain and half wholemeal bread flour.
If I want to freeze the base, I bake it until set but not coloured, freeze, then finish baking from frozen.
I tried freezing the raw dough and baking from frozen, but it never rose as well as I wanted.
Have never tried 00 flour.
Kye, SR flour is just flour with baking powder already added (i.e. a mix of bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar). The advantage with SR flour is that you can use imprecise or odd quantities of flour and know that the ratio of flour to raising agent will still be good. The disadvantage, apparently, is that it goes off and that after a long time the raising agent will no longer work. So people say, anyway, but it's never happened to me.
According to my baking powder pot, the correct ratio to replace SR flour is 8oz/225g of plain flour to 3 tsp (15ml) baking powder. Where SR comes into its own is if you want to use a quantity other than 225g!

Re: Pizza Dough
I love the idea of pre-making pizza dough and freezing. Especially since im dairy intolerant so can never eat shop bought pizza.
When it comes to cooking the frozen dough do I have to defrost first or can I cook from frozen?
This will settle an argument me and the fiancé have been having

Re: Pizza Dough
Welcome to the forums, Boo2aGoose .
I don't freeze. I've kept in the fridge in ziplock bags for up to two weeks. Flavour is better if anything (sourdough ).
I bring the fridge-"matured" dough to room temp (it'll expand more) before shaping and topping.
Hope this is of some help .

More people are wising up to the value of bees.
It takes 12 bees their entire bee lifetime to gather enough nectar to make one teaspoon of honey. They will visit thousands of flowers a day and fly great distances before returning home to deposit the nectar into the hive's cells.
During their travels, bees play a vital role in the life of plants, dusting pollen from one plant to another and so ensuring fertilisation, and the survival and diversity of hundreds of species, including humans! We need bees, and lots of them.
Fortunately many city-dwellers have cottoned on to this, and the number of beehives in suburban gardens is growing. This is a worldwide trend - you can even spot bees flying to and from their hives on the rooftops of apartment buildings in Paris and New York. These industrious creatures will find a way to hunt and gather in the most urban of situations, and give their city keepers a sweet reward in the form of honey.
Aucklander Greig Buckley became inspired during a visit to his local market. He got talking to a beekeeper and found out there were several backyard hives in his neighbourhood, and that the beekeeper would basically do all the work. The bees fed themselves and the keeper regularly checks the hive.
As the owner of Kai, a business that promotes and sells artisan food, Greig believes that we should all get closer to the source of what we eat. You couldn't get much closer than the huge pohutukawa tree that grows in his woody garden, a perfect "honey trap" for his hive of bees. The hive produces about 50kg of honey a year in three or four batches. Greig helps with the harvest but apart from that, the hive is very low maintenance. The bees are well behaved and it's fascinating watching their endless coming and goings.
I've been using honey a lot more in my cooking lately. I use it when making syrups in which to poach fruit, to sweeten cream and yoghurt, to enhance roast vegetables and in various marinades and glazes. As well as being a natural sweetener, honey has many health benefits. Here are a few ideas to help you make more of it.
Enhanced roast veges
The sweeter the vegetable the more it takes to a bit of honey. Kumara, pumpkin, carrot, yams and parsnips can be dressed with a little oil, a judicious amount of honey and seasoned well with salt and pepper.
A squeeze of orange or lemon juice also works well and you could add some grated fresh ginger or finely chopped garlic if that is to your taste.
Add a small amount of water to your roasting pan and cook in a medium oven until tender.
To serve, zest up with some fresh herbs. Try mint with carrots, maybe sage on the pumpkin and lemon thyme with the parsnip.
Try these recipes:
* Smokey sweet chicken drumsticks
* Gordon Ramsay's mint chocolate truffles

yardbirds gets it right
Original post made by jimbo, Alamo, on Aug 15, 2007
I hadn't been to Yardbirds since its reopening. The store looks great, but what impressed me the most was the classical music. I am so accustomed to gritting my teeth enduring Madonna and Britney Spears, and I typically rush through my purchases and run screaming from stores. But I found myself leisurely strolling through Yardbirds. Good job by the new management.

O'Brien, who has addressed a variety of topics in past speeches, including diversity in the media and the workplace, technology and women's issues, will be awarded the University Medal -- the highest honor the University can bestow.
Decker School of Nursing doctoral candidate Margaret Wells and Alan Weissman, a bachelor's degree in psychology candidate, will also address fellow students at Fall Commencement.
Wells, a board-certified adult nurse practitioner, is an assistant clinical professor at SUNY Upstate Medical University's College of Nursing.

(On being exhausted after Masters) "I'm really exhausted. After driving down there two Fridays ago, I was there for about 10 days in total and that's playing golf every single day, playing the course. It's not only physically draining, it's more the emotional side and mental side that just drains you so much more than you think. After last week, I have a lot more respect for the fitness of the guys out there on tour."
(On what he accomplished) "Honestly, probably not. For me, it's a really great achievement and I'm really proud, but to fully realize what I've done, I probably haven't yet, just like the US Amateur."
(On being a part of the Masters) "Getting to go into Butler Cabin was probably the coolest part of the week for me. Everything came up into a pinnacle, and it was huge for me. It was an unbelievable experience to be a part of. My family was in the middle of the green, so it was exciting for them as well."
(On professional plans past U.S. Open) "I have thought about it a little bit, but I am trying to just ignore it. I'm trying to just focus on what is in front of me. Obviously, I have to focus on it a little bit because it's my future, but I don't know when I will be turning pro. I just have to keep it in mind."
(On what his mentality was heading into the Masters) "I didn't want to put too much pressure on myself with too many goals. Mainly, I just wanted to make the cut and be the low amateur, and I achieved that. On Saturday and Sunday, I just tried to play like I had on Friday."
(On thoughts towards the U.S. Open) "You are probably going to be the most nervous at the Masters. I wasn't nearly as nervous as I thought I would be, so that is great for me. It helps with my preparation for the U.S. Open."
(On feedback from the team)
"I got back yesterday and saw them last night. We talked about everything that they were interested in. We just talked about it for a couple of hours, but it was great. We have been chatting like we were two weeks ago. I was back in my books this morning, so it is back to reality for me. For the SEC Championship, I am going to try and become just as motivated as I was for the Masters."
(On being at the Masters but also having schoolwork due) "I was emailing my professors last night about not being able to get through the day let alone schoolwork. I was thinking about schoolwork at first, but then by midway, I just couldn't worry about it. There weren't enough hours in a day to worry about that kind of stuff. I was back into it for a couple of hours this morning."
(On fans) "I really wasn't expecting that many fans. To get down there and hear hundreds of "Go Vols," it was just amazing. I couldn't have asked for better fan support. It makes me proud to be a part of the Tennessee community."
(On what you did while waiting for the Green Jacket Ceremony) "I went to the merchandise tent and bought my merchandise for the week. I got me a couple of flags, phone covers, and all of that kind of cool stuff, just so I can keep as a memorabilia, and then I got invited in to one of the cabins, just left the tent with one of the members, he takes care of the low amateurs each year and like all my family. We watched like the last nine holes on TV in the cabin and it was great, just probably going to the cabin."
(On if your family had a list of things to buy for people back home or not) "Yeah, I think my grandma bought a flag, and I got Adam Scott to sign it for her for one of her friends which is really cool, and I got some shirts and stuff for people, wasn't really that much, I just got a lot of stuff, just for the family to say thank you."

Host Discovery Help
I typically won't post these types of topics unless I'm really desperate, which is the case. I have done much research by myself but still need some assistance and the clock is ticking :/
I am a whitehat that was employed by an organization [sorry I probably shouldn't say by whom] that hired me for my mitm, arp posioning, and packet injection skills. Quite honestly I'm not near as experienced as the majority of the users on here but they seemed to think I could do the job.
The only problem is they seem to have me doing everything outside of my expertise and have me scanning the ol WAN for external host discovery.
Only problem is that the firewall seems pretty resilient [or I'm just pathetic] and I am not getting any hosts returned on my external scans.... At all. One range I scanned let's say just for example 192.168.0.0/24 [obviously just a local example, not the real range I'm scanning]. And I get 30 some on hosts on the internal scan. Okay great. I hop outside of the network and start doing external scans. Nothing. I can't get ANYTHING!
I'll be honest. I'm no nmap guru. I've read through the "Nmap Network Scanning" book by Gordon Lyon and used a few of his suggested methods and still, nothing.
My first attempts I tried mixing various types of SYN an ACK probes and still can't seem to achieve any king of success.
An example of one of my attempts:
-PE -PA -PS21-25,80,113,31339 -PA80,113,443,10042 -g 53
I'm not asking anyone to do my homework for me. Maybe just point me in the right direction. Again I hate to ask for any help but I have to report on SOMETHING. Haha thanks in advance for any advice.
Oh and I wish I could disclose more information on the network but don't think that would be a good idea.

For such a small sample size like that I would use Nick Cox's
-stripplot- (see: -ssc desc stripplot-). The power of tests like
-ksmirnov- is usually pretty bad, so in small sample sizes you are not
going to find anything that is not glaringly obvious if you just
looked at the data. On the other hand you will in all likelihood miss
lots of real an interesting patterns if you focus on such low power
tests. So, there is no added value to be got from these tests and a
real chance of a loss.

text: A vision for preparing students in Massachusetts' Gateway Cities A report developed collaboratively by mayors, city managers and education leaders in Massachusetts' Gateway Cities highlights effective new means of preparing students for the changing economy and ensuring an adequate supply of skilled workers for growing regional economies. The report, "Gateway Cities Vision for Dynamic Community-Wide Learning Systems," calls for strategies that leverage the educational assets of urban centers so they can create high-quality learning experiences aimed at drawing middle-class families back to their neighborhoods.The project was spearheaded by MassINC and sponsored by the MTA, the Nellie Mae Education Foundation, the Irene E. and George A. Davis Foundation and the Parker Foundation. Gateway Cities are midsize urban centers that often serve as immigrant families' gateway into Massachusetts. Many of these communities, including Holyoke, Springfield, Lawrence and Lowell, are former manufacturing centers that have faced significant social and economic challenges since manufacturing has declined in the United States. Education is often seen as the best means of building stronger economies in these communities, yet student performance and graduation rates are significantly lower in Gateway Cities than they are in the rest of the state. The MTA has been at the forefront of efforts to improve education for students in Gateway Cities. Last year, the MTA and the nonprofit New Voice Strategies spearheaded a collaborative project that involved more than 300 teachers in 24 Massachusetts Gateway Cities, plus Cambridge and Somerville, who shared their views in an online discussion. Active participants were then asked to join a writing collaborative to craft teacher recommendations for narrowing student achievement gaps in low-income urban districts. These recommendations are contained in "Addressing Educational Inequities: Proposals for Narrowing the Achievement Gaps in Massachusetts' Gateway Cities," a report by the members of the VIVA MTA Teachers Idea Exchange.

Architect Terry Hitchcock was considered a master, and the Webbs' 1974 Remuera home is typical of that genre - solid construction, pitched roofs and handcrafted detailing in the spirit of our colonial pioneers.
Present owner Paul Webb decided within minutes that he loved it. "It was a rainy day, but I just knew it was right," he says, "and a solid house is a good house."
His wife, Rosemary, was taken with the downstairs flow and the quirky upstairs. "It's like The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," she says, referring to the master bedroom's link to the children's rooms.
Previous owners renovated in 2002 with architect Simon Pirie, adding a pool and a sympathetic kitchen update. With two young children, the Webbs concentrated on developing a safe play yard and light-filled, modern bathrooms.
Nestled down a quiet right-of-way, the house is completely sheltered. "We have our own little micro-climate," says Paul. Outside, they can choose between sunny terraces by the pool and hot-tub, or a deep shady patio off the dining room.
"It's great when the adults are around the barbie, with kids watching DVDs in the family room next door," says Rosemary. Or, more often, the kids are playing on the eastern side of the house, where recycled brick forms tidy terracing.
The family has loved having two living spaces, revolving around the central kitchen.
"When the kids are in bed, we can retire in here and watch TV," says Paul of the beamed main living room and its cosy gas fire. The craftsman touch is evident in the heavy plastered walls and cast-iron detailing on the whitewashed beams. Walls of folding doors and a window seat in the adjoining dining room bring in all day winter sun, soaked up by the polished brick floors.
The kitchen continues the traditional theme, with solid timber joinery (stained a soft blue/grey), dark granite counters and double-oven range. "Storage is squeezed in everywhere," says Paul, pointing out the butler's pantry and matching storage units in the adjoining family room.
The private back hall and stairs to the kids' rooms recall older-style planning too. A massive laundry opens to the play yard, admitting children and swimmers to a newly refurbished bathroom that also opens to the entry hall.
Two wings with steeply pitched roofs, finished with timber shingles and copper downspouts, conceal the upstairs bedrooms. The steeply pitched ceilings in the two kids' rooms feel like a fairy-tale cottage. The same smart tiling clads their shower and bathroom, and tons of storage line the hall to what Rosemary calls the quirky secret entrance to the master bedroom.
Paul recalls the instant appeal of the master bedroom's pitched ceiling: "It was different but just felt right." A Juliet balcony pulls in breezes on hot nights and is a favourite bed for the dog. Rosemary enjoys having three wardrobes, including a walk-in closet that leads to the luxurious tiled bathroom with its sculptured oval tub (and out again to the kids' wing).
She's also taken over one of the three bays in the garage as a gym, to supplement all the walks to the nearby dog park. If work calls, there's a separate study off the entrance hall.
Above the garage, another pitched-roof wing houses a self-contained suite. With its own bathroom and kitchenette, it's hosted many guests, although it would work well for teens or grandmothers.
The family has enjoyed this private corner of town, within a walk of Newmarket, but now the beach lifestyle is calling.

There are a lot of fantastic tutorials out there for creating fairy/pixie wings- this is just the way that I chose to do it for my Pixie costume.
I started out by figuring out how large I wanted the wings to be (HCC cosplay has a wonderful write up here on learning to scale things for yourself in cosplay which is definitely worth a read- that's pretty much how I scale things for myself, so I'm not going to re-write what they've already explained beautifully there). Once size was figured out, I grabbed my reference photos of the wings I wanted to make and painted the general shape onto some pieces of cardstock. To start out with, I only made one side of the pair of wings (one upper wing and one lower wing).
The lines aren't the cleanest, but that's fine- the next step is to cut out the white parts with an x-acto knife and that gives me a chance to clean up the edges of the black lines.
Once all of the white parts have been cut out of the wings, I lay them down on more cardstock and traced their outline to make the other two wings (actually, technically I went the super lazy route and just spray painted them over the other cardstock to create the outline for the other two wings). Since I was using white cardstock and I needed the wing veins to be black I ended up spray painting the cardstock black after it was all cut out.
I used iridescent cellophane (you can buy it online in rolls- I think they also sell it at Michael's craft stores- it seems to be used for wrapping gift baskets generally) for the shimmery wing membranes. You can get some neat effects by crinkling it up, heating it, burning it, etc- it's fun to experiment with. For my Pixie wings, I crinkled up a bunch of it to give it some texture, then lay it flat on the floor (or whatever your workspace is- I always work on the floor because I'm amazingly clumsy and always manage to knock things off tables…). I sprayed one side of my painted cardstock wing vein pieces with spray adhesive and then set them down on the cellophane to attach them. Once all of my wing vein pieces were attached to the big sheet of cellophane, I cut them out (be careful, the cellophane tears really easily!).
To stabilize the wings, I glued (E-6000) a single piece of aluminum wire along the top of the wing and then let it trail off at the base of the wing. The extra bit of wire is what I would later use to attach the wings to my little harness that went under my Pixie bodysuit.
That's pretty much it. You can use a hair dryer or heat gun to tighten up the cellophane if it's too flimsy between your wing veins- be careful not to melt it though. These wings have actually held up surprisingly well considering what they're made of. If you were feeling ambitious and wanted to spend significantly more money, making the wing veins out of thin metal produces beautiful and far more durable results. For my project I was leaning towards spending as little as possible- all of the materials cost less than $20 for these wings.
During a shoot, photo by Nicole Ciaramella. Wings held into a specific pose for the shoot with gaffer's tape.
As a final note, the harness that I made for these wings had little channels in it that the pieces of wire for the wings fit into. I wore it underneath my costume and the channels on the harness had to be accessed through grommets in the back of my costume. I couldn't put the wings on without help, but it made for a nearly seamless attachment which made me really happy- and since there are pretty much no photos of the back of my costume you would probably never know that I spent the time to do that… C'est la vie.

Wayne Law professor founds organization to help military families
DETROIT (Mar. 1, 2012)—Having a family member in the military is challenging enough. Without the support of friends who know what you're going through, there are times when it can be almost unbearable.
When Associate Professor of Law Jocelyn Benson's husband, a paratrooper in the Army, deployed, she wanted to help others in her situation feel more connected. "As a military spouse, I know that our community is scattered throughout the state. With no main active duty base in Michigan, family members can feel isolated and alone," she said.
Benson's idea to build a network of support and services for those families led her to found Military Spouses of Michigan (MSM). "I wanted our courageous military spouses in Michigan to be comforted by one simple promise: You are not alone."
MSM provides free legal advice and representation, information about education and employment opportunities, details about important state and federal changes or developments that could affect military families, and programs on financial issues. MSM also hosts social gatherings—everything from potluck dinners and movie nights to birthday parties and anniversary celebrations—to help bring families together and share their experiences in a fun way.
"We believe that one of the greatest needs of our Michigan military spouse community is the simplest: building meaningful relationships with each other and our community," Benson said. "The response to this has been almost overwhelming."
For more information or to get involved, visit http://www.milspousemichigan.org or contact Benson at 577-3971.

I have multiple hives, yet got this nuc in October. There was a swarm in my yard which I was unable to capture last week. When I went through the hive at first, the 8 frame deep only had 5 frames pulled and most were full of nectar. I didn't look too closely. Today I went through and saw 1 superseder/emergency cell in the middle of a frame of capped brood. I couldn't see any other eggs or brood in the box.
I am going to let it sit, but was wondering why the cell wasn't even capped yet if the nuc had purposely back-filled the brood and already swarmed. Again I am not sure if this is the colony that swarmed, but I would think so with all the capped honey and nectar filled comb.
Any Thoughts???

You cum in a girls mouth and then clamp her mouth shut. Then you tell her you have an STD. She freaks and tries to spit it out, but with her mouth closed still by you all the cum comes out her nose. That's an alaskan snow dragon son.

It's when a girl eat a hot pepper. Then she suck your cock until you cum. With the cum and the feeling of the hot mouth, it makes a snowdragon. To make an alaskan snowdragon, you make it outside during the winter.
Sarah and I went to Carlo's and Peppes. She was feeling horny as her mouth was starting to get spicy!!! So she took me outside during a snowstorm to give me a blowjob. Then I came in her hot mouth to make it a alaskan snowdragon.

When you're trying to convince somebody, sometimes nothing speaks louder than one really effective image. Now, sometimes those images can be incomplete (or downright false) but even the most logical and rational of us have visceral reactions to certain pictures. In the conversation about climate change, the image that comes to mind for most people is the polar bear. Watching a clip of a polar bear swimming and swimming with no ice floes in sight probably swayed as many people as any report on scientific data.
GEOlino, a German science magazine for children, decided to play — literally — with that idea. Continue Reading "GEOlino Meltdown: A Game of Cold, Hard Facts" »

The act of attempting to poo with such effort that all facial control is lost. This normally results in extreme contortion of the facial expressions and rapid flapping of the tongue inside the mouth.
Hector had eaten so much food, when he tried to evacuate his bowels he needed to use so much effort that he had a serious case of squeeze tongue. His tongue continued to spasm in his mouth for days after. This was some serious squeeze tongue aftermath.

Fried Cuttlefish Balls (炸墨鱼丸)
Fried Cuttlefish Balls (炸墨鱼丸): —They are nice little treats, ones that I particularly enjoyed eating, especially when they are dipped in a spicy condiment such as Lingham's hot sauce
12 cuttlefish balls
Oil, for deep-frying
Chili sauce
Heat up a wok with oil for deep-frying, or heat up a deep-fryer. Deep-fry the cuttlefish balls until they turn golden brown. Transfer the cuttlefish balls out with a slotted spoon and drain the excess oil with paper towels.
Skewer three (3) cuttlefish balls into one bamboo skewer and drizzle each skewer with chili sauce.
Serve immediately.
Don't you just love eating foods that remind you of your childhood, or when you were younger? Foods that practically transport you to a different era when things were a lot less complicated and life were much simpler, and perhaps happier?
I am a junk food junkie and I love all sorts of snacks, especially if they are in skewers. Fried cuttlefish ball is one of them—sold by street vendors, roadside stalls or the food court at the basement level of shopping centers (in Asia). They are nice little treats, ones that I particularly enjoyed eating, especially when they are dipped in a spicy condiment such as Lingham's hot sauce…
The timing of this snack couldn't be any better (or more nostalgic) as I found some cuttlefish balls made in Malaysia while food shopping this past weekend. It's not easy to find Malaysian food products here in the United States so I was especially psyched to test the goods. The brand is BEST (极佳) and they have a whole lineup of fish products—springy fish paste, fish balls, fish tofu, and cuttlefish balls. It's the taste of home and the cuttlefish balls are loaded with real and shredded pieces of cuttlefish.
I fried up these cuttlefish balls with my deep-fryer, poured some Lingham's hot sauce over them, and then I turned on my TV and watched a DVD movie. Life is— again—simpler, happier, and tastier.

Therefore, they are requesting we either take our vacations or an unpaid leave of absence during the games. I can't afford a leave so don't mind taking my vacation. Our employer is also going to acquire some tickets for our purchase - I am going to find out if any figure skating tickets are available. Hey I don't mind "going to work" and watching figure skating at the same time!!!
