ADA Law Requires Online Curricula to Accommodate Students With Disabilities
The American Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates that if college and university faculty have online course content, it must be designed to accommodate students with disabilities. A professional development webinar was held for RIC faculty to teach best practices.
"As a college we're moving more and more toward classes that are Web enhanced or that have online components," said Director of Disability Services Keri Rossi-D'entremont. "Not many faculty know that they are responsible for making sure that any course content they post on the Web, whether it's documents or video clips, is available in formats that are accessible for all students."
Equal accessibility applies to Web applications, Web pages, attached files, intranet, public-facing Web pages and online courses, says the ADA, and failure to comply to these regulations have resulted in civil rights suits at some colleges and universities.
The goal, Rossi-D'entremont said, is not to wait until a discrimination suit is filed. The goal is to begin each semester by designing courses around equal access.
Rossi-D'entremont described a variety of special needs that students with disabilities might have. There may be students who are visually impaired and need screen readers, she said. There may be students who are hearing impaired in a course that makes use of online videos. In that case, the videos will need to be captioned and designed with the appropriate font size and layout, she said. Other students may qualify for extra time on an online exam. In other words, accommodations need to be made for all students.
Rossi-D'entremont encourages faculty and staff to become informed about the various barriers to accessibility.
This event is sponsored by the offices of Disability Services and Information Services, and the Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning.

No, those are a speculated minority of actual NHL positioned opinions. Are their names printed? Of course not. Why is that? Tampering? Come on now. If this was actually polled, yet, the names of those interviewed cant stand behind their decision, well, sorry, seems more media created for ratings then an actual, honest poll to me. I mean, it isn't like Bettman hasn't had a history of pushing Sid down the throats of everybody until the point of ridiculous to try and create some sort of excitement about the NHL in hand picking him as his Lebron and failed miserably in the states by the simple fact nobody cares about the guy outside of Pittsburgh. Who
expect Sid to be on the Top of the list on a TSN show? Really now....

Theres no legitimate debate here only because Crysby fanboi's don't want to hear that their hero just isn't good enough to be considered the best in the game.
Love all the innuendo you seem to type out tho. Wonderful and thoughtful.:special:

Huh? Kunitz was a good player
he got to Pittsburgh. You know this, correct? He played on Getzlaf's line and produced almost similar numbers with his highest point total being
point higher while playing with Sid then it was while playing with Getz. Trying to short change an NHL player to prop up Sid? (smh)
Originally Posted by

Is that how it works now? OV's award vestibule has no bearing on being a dominant player, only his goal scoring prowess? Or is it, again, on account of injuries that Sid should have all the awards OV has accumulated during the same time frame and that, for the sake of Sid, the entire league should stop playing until he deems himself physically fit to play again and mob up every award. Doesn't work that way. During the regular season, OV has been the better, more dominant player. During the playoffs, where it actually matters, Toews has been the better player. Sid? He is a very good player in the regular season and a bit player in the playoffs. History and fact point this out considerably.

Wait, but the integrity of NHL journalists is any better?

Well, Toews has 2 Cups, a Conn Smythe, Olympic goal, Olympic best forward, Olympic AS,scores goals, creates for his team mates, is the best defensive forward in the game, the best leader on the ice bar none, led the league in ES goals last year, etc,etc,etc. And the fact he does it all on the biggest stages exemplifies what a winner truly is.
Originally Posted by

And Toews has just hit his prime while Sid is in his. Theres plenty of time for Toews, who has won
in two less years then Sid to accomplish even more.

Fine. The pundits said the same thing last year too. That worked out.....

I never said he was. I stated he took the opening FO and was out because the USA's most dangerous player, Kane, was out there during the 4 on 4. Not hard to comprehend that Toews took on all the tough assignments but again, Bergeron learned a whole lot from him during this time.

LOL. This must be why Toews Olympic jersey sales were the highest of all the players on the '10 Canada team. That damn Iggy, he kills the momentum.
Wait, you did know that, right?
Originally Posted by

Well, right now, Crysby needs to measure up to Toews, just saying.
Ill get back to the rest later. Good job guys.

Last week, while CU students were enjoying Spring Break, we lost a dear member of our community. CU junior David Parrish of Boulder was killed last Wednesday in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico while trying to stop two men from robbing his mother CU instructor Janet Graaff. David was a geography major, a talented photographer and artist, and a student with a strong commitment to understanding other cultures and peoples in short, everything we could hope for from a CU student.
Janet Graaff is also a treasured member of our CU family in her role as lecturer in our Leeds School of Business and in the College of Engineering and Applied Science. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ms. Graaff; with David's Father, Steven, and with his family, friends and CU classmates. A loss of any one of our students is deeply felt here, but the loss of such a heroic, visionary student is nearly unbearable.
Young people like David Parrish are the heart and soul of CU, and our community is diminished in incalculable ways by his loss. As our campus mourns his passing, the offices of Victim Assistance and Counseling and Psychological Services are ready to assist those who might be personally affected by this horrific crime. We will also place the full resources of the university at the ready for David's family.
Finally, I would ask that we all reflect upon David's life and positive contributions to our community by renewing our commitment to creating a non-violent campus, and to fostering the cross-cultural, multi-national understanding that David sought for himself in his time here as a CU student.
G.P. "Bud" Peterson
The Geography Department joins the greater University of Colorado and
Boulder communities in mourning the tragic death of David Parrish last
week in Mexico. As a promising student with a bright future, David was
very well regarded by the Geography faculty, staff and students. He
will be sorely missed. We wish to offer our deepest condolences to his
family and friends.
Tim Oakes
Associate Professor and Chair
CU students returned from spring break to face the tragic death of one of our fellow students, David Parrish, a Geography major who would have finished his third year of studies this May. It's difficult to bear the loss of any member of our community and it's important that we come together in support for one another during this time of grief. Our thoughts and strength go out to David's family, his friends, and to all whose lives he touched. We're inspired by how David contributed to the CU community artistically and intellectually, and we're proud of him for his last heroic actions.

Reviews for this host's other properties
The appartment has an unusual but interesting and smart floor plan. Lots of rustic and old feel mixed with modern stuff.
We were missing a pair of scissors and a coffee mug or two, but after a mail to John we got the stuff the same day.
A faint odor from the very bottom of the stairs connecting the loft with the rest of the apartment but it wasn't too bad.
Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Posizione perfetta a ridosso del Marais con metro, bus, taxi e supermercati a 100 metri. Appartamento grazioso e completo di tutto. Accoglienza del referente premurosa e soddisfacente.
Nice, clean and perfectly located. Highly recommended!
Handing over of apartments has worked quite well, ext. was clean and in very good condition.
Everything in its place, any time :-)
Übergabe des Apartements hat ganz gut geklappt, App. war sauber und in sehr gutem Zustand.
Alles in bester Ordnung, jederzeit wieder :-)
I went to Paris to spent four days with my sister and I found a very dirty flat. Anyway the neighborhood was very nice. We had to change the sheets because they had stains. Under the table there were some dirty socks. Wifi was available only for first 24 hours. I had to contact with the owner five times and the only answer was "how can I solve the problem?, in most places of Paris there was free wifi."
I wouldn't recommend this flat because it's was a unpleasant experience with it.
A very nice accommodation with all the trimmings. In one of the nicest streets of Latin Quarter. Many shops selling fine wines, cheese, meat, fruit, bread and chocolate. Perfect start for a nice break. A nice walk to the Seine or wander around the streets in the district.
In the loft is really everything, himself a vaatwassertje, washing machine and iron.
A small disadvantage is the sound of the supply carts from the shops on the street. But who would want to stay long in bed in town this gift?
Een zeer nette accomodatie met alles erop en eraan. In een van de leukste straatjes van Quatier Latin. Veel winkeltjes met lekkere wijnen, kaas, vlees, fruit, brood en chocolade. Perfecte start voor een mooie stedentrip. Een mooie wandeling naar de Seine of lekker struinen door de straatjes in de wijk.
In de loft zit echt alles, zelf een vaatwassertje, wasmachine en strijkbout.
Een klein nadeeltje is het geluid van de bevoorradingskarren van de winkeltjes op straat. Maar ja, wie wil er nu lang in bed blijven liggen in deze gave stad?
The stay was very satisfactory. they have adapted very Bioen our early arrival time, and we were waiting on the porch.
the house is correct and well situated. No complaints about that.
Missing some things like toilet paper, coffee filters, they very kindly brought in 15 minutes.
Address to recommend.
On the negative side, I did not like that the last day will not get the OK to exit, and stay with the guarantee of 500 € for 48 hours, in case they find any fault !!
La estancia ha sido muy satisfactoria. se han adaptado muy bioen a nuestra hora de llegada temprana, y nos estaban esperando en el portal.
la casa está correcta y muy bien situada. Ninguna queja al respecto.
Faltaban algunas cosas, como papel higiénico, filtros de café, que muy amablemente nos los trajo en 15 minutos.
Dirección a recomendar.
Como aspecto negativo, no me gustó que el último día no te dan el OK a la salida, y se quedan con la fianza de 500€ durante 48h, por si encuentran alguna anomalía!!
We had a wonderful time in Paris and mostly because of our quite small but very comfortable and convenient apartment. It's situated in a strategic position: Although it's really close to any kind of shop and many good restaurants and bars, it's in the internal part of the building so it is very silent. Absolutely suggested.

In this series I will explain five reasons why Texas Tech fans should be excited for the upcoming season. Of course there are more reasons than that to be excited about the 2013 campaign, but here is one of the five.
First I start with the most noticeable upgrade and it's a visual one that has needed to come for the past few years - the scoreboard.
It is not news to anyone that had attended a game at Jones AT&T Stadium in the last few seasons that the expansion of the stadium with the addition of the east side and the extra seating added that the stadium outgrew the scoreboard.
The smaller scoreboard looked like it was too small for the stadium and the sound system was another problem all in itself. But now that is being fixed.
When it was announced that the Jones would be getting a monster scoreboard and brand new sound system there was a sense of excitement but more one of relief that overcame me.
Finally we would have a scoreboard and sound system that would fit the stadium and add to the already fantastic game day atmosphere that the Jones possesses.
I won't get technical with everything that the scoreboard will bring but simply state that it will be big, bright and loud. Something fans haven't ever had.
I have had the privilege to travel to a few different stadiums while covering the Red Raiders and visually this will be the one of the best in the Big 12.
Yes having video on a huge screen and a brand new sound system will be nice but what I am most excited about is the visual appearance of the board.
It's just not a huge video board like the one in Austin at the home of the Longhorns, but rather it has some character and West Texas attributes to it.
The large Texas Tech lettering with the huge bright red Double T in the middle that already graces the top of the scoreboard inside the stadium and the identical one that will grace the outside of the stadium is what I am excited about.
It really adds a lot to the stadium and it will be another feature of the stadium to show off to visitors and alumni alike that return to Lubbock for a Red Raider football game.
It's the old saying of "Keeping up with the Jones" and with the upgrades to Jones, Texas Tech has definitely done that with a much-needed improvement to the stadium.
Not only will the play on the field be exciting in 2013, but also seeing the new scoreboard and experiencing the new sound system will add to what will be a buzzing environment in Lubbock this next season.

Ashley Dionne, 26, posted her letter on conservative talk radio host Dennis Prager's Facebook page, and it's now being picked up by other media.
Although highly educated at a well-respected university, Dionne describes herself as a member of the "working poor." She's paid $8 an hour to work 32 hours a week at a gym. She was placed in that position by a failing economy, which Obamacare can only make worse.
Obamacare is forcing her out of a plan she favors and into one in which the premiums have more than quadrupled and with a massive deductible. Yet her own medical problems mean that going uninsured is not an option.
Here's her letter:
My name is Ashley Dionne and I'm a 26-year-old recent graduate from Michigan.
The phony Obamacare signup poster boy made me want to send a message about how Obamacare is really affecting people.
I graduated from The University of Michigan in 2009. In my state, this used to mean something, but even with a bachelor's I was told I was too educated and wouldn't stay. I watched as kids with GEDs and high school diploma's took the low-paying jobs for which I applied.
I went back to school and got a second degree and finally found work at a gym. I work nights and only get 32 hours a week for eight dollars an hour. I'm unable to find a second job at this time.
I have asthma, ulcers, and mild cerebral palsy. Obamacare takes my monthly rate from $75 a month for full coverage on my "Young Adult Plan," to $319 a month. After $6,000 in deductibles, of course.
Liberals claimed this law would help the poor. I am the poor, the working poor, and I can't afford to support myself, let alone older generations and people not willing to work at all. This law has raped my future.
It will keep me and kids my age from having a future at all.
This is the real face of Obamacare and it isn't pretty.
Liberals have yet to learn — there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Certain events experienced at the moment of birth have consequences on the emotional reactions of animals at an adult age. Researchers from the Laboratoire d'Ethologie Animale et Humaine (CNRS/Université de Rennes 1) have tested the effects of unilateral tactile stimulation on newborn foals. Their results show that animals handled on their right side at birth avoid contact with humans more often than those stimulated on their left side or not at all. Published in Biology Letters, this work raises questions on the organization of neonatal care in animals and humans.
Events experienced by newborns influence their behavior in the more or less long term. Certain events in early life are crucial for the behavioral and neurological development of animals and can have a considerable impact on the organization and the development of brain asymmetry in particular.
Having observed that handling at birth can have long term effects, a team from the Laboratoire d'Ethologie Animale et Humaine (CNRS / Université de Rennes 1) wondered what impact unilateral stimulation would have on emotional reactions later in life. The ethologists tested the consequences of unilateral tactile stimulations on 28 newborn foals: 10 of them were handled just after birth on their right side (the newborn foals were "rubbed" vigorously for one hour on a single side), 9 others on their left side, while the remaining 9 were not handled at all. The researchers then observed medium-term effects: the reactions of foals to a human approach, when they were 10 days old, differed according to the side stimulated at birth. The right-handled animals fled at the approach of humans more often than the left-handled or unhandled foals.
These results show that tactile stimulation at birth has a medium-term impact, the extent of which depends, among other things, on the side of the stimulation. Consequently, these experiments on foals demonstrate that handling a newborn on the right side or the left side does not have the same consequences. Scientists will henceforth study this unilateral sensitivity in newborn babies in maternity wards, with a view to improving neonatal care in humans and thus the well-being of infants.

IIS servers = prime hacker targets
Internet Information Services (IIS) web servers - which host web pages and serve them to users - are highly popular among business organizations, with over 6 million such servers installed worldwide. Unfortunately, IIS web servers are also popular among hackers and malicious fame-seekers – as a prime target for attacks!
As a result, every so often, new exploits emerge which endanger your IIS web server's integrity and stability. Many administrators have a hard time keeping up with the various security patches released for IIS to cope with each new exploit, making it easy for malicious users to find a vulnerable web server on the Internet. There are multiple issues which can completely endanger your Web server - and possibly your entire corporate network and reputation.
Figure 1: Many exploits give hackers access to pages and code that they are not authorized to view
Open to attack
Hacker tools abound on the Internet. With them, the average teenage hacker can easily attack and even control your web server, with the possibility of penetrating your internal network. In other words, it is not too difficult for outsiders to access proprietary corporate information. Worse still, hackers need not be teenagers out for a thrill, as commonly presumed: disgruntled employees and competitors, for instance, may have their own reasons for breaking into confidential areas of your network.
Few hacker attacks are actually instantly recognizable as such, and fewer still become high profile affairs reported in the media. Most attacks are not easy to discover because many intruders prefers to remain hidden so that they can use the IIS web server they have hacked as a launch base for attacks on far more important or popular web servers. Apart from endangering your own web site's integrity, such use of your server can render you liable should it be used to launch an attack on another organization.
Tools of the trade
Many tools exist to facilitate hackers who wish to deface a web site. Such tools are so easy to use that even someone with no prior hacking experience can make a mess out of a web server in no time at all.
The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) exploit
Figure 2: IPP exploit made easy
A program that makes use of this exploit is Internet Printing Protocol Exploit v.0.15 (Figure 2). This is based on the infamous original exploit code in a C program file named "jill.c", made public by a hacker using the alias "dark spyrit".
This application uses a vulnerability in the IPP buffer overflow on an IIS web server. All the hacker needs to do is type in the name of the targeted web server (or a computer with IIS installed on it) and click on "Connect".
Upon connecting, the application will send the actual string that overflows the stack, leading to the execution of custom code (that is known as shell code) and connecting the file cmd.exe to the specified port on the attacker's side (default being 31337).
This can bypass typical firewall configurations and other similar security measures.
Once that is done, the hacker is presented with a command line and SYSTEM access, from where he could carry out a number of activities that an administrator would definitely not have authorized, such as gaining access to databases which could contain credit card details and other such confidential data.
The UNICODE and CGI-Decode exploits
Figure 3: Unicode exploit using Internet Explorer
Two other exploits preferred by web site defacers include the UNICODE and CGI-Decode exploits. Here, the hacker can simply use the browser itself to do anything on a target machine that is running an un-patched version of IIS. All it takes is Internet Explorer and a "magic string" to execute anything under the anonymous account of the IIS. Figure 3 shows a directory dump of C:\ of the IIS server in the web browser itself! This is just a simple example to demonstrate that the hacker can gain access to your web server's hard disk.
Initially, this access is limited to the user rights of the IIS anonymous user account (IUSR_computername). Once the hacker has IIS anonymous access, he can easily upload an ASP file, which can escalate his access to SYSTEM privileges. Such an action would give him full access to the hacked computer, meaning he can do anything.
Custom-made applications
Some web site cracker groups prefer to produce their own applications to automate the process of defacing a web site.
Figure 4: IIS Storm by m0sad
One such group is M0sad, an Israeli hacker unit that developed and released a hacking tool named IIS Storm v.2 (see Figure 4). An excerpt from the IIS Storm manual runs: "IIS Storm is a tool made for Remote Web Site Defacement that is running IIS (Internet Information Server [NT platform]) and that also vulnerable to the Unicode Exploit."
Tools such as this give full hacking capabilities to both skilled and unskilled hackers. IIS Storm also allows users to hide their original IP address through anonymous proxies, and to easily replace files on the target website with their own custom HTML pages.
PoizonB0x, another notorious group of self-proclaimed "cyber-terrorists" and "net-warriors", created iisautoexp.pl, an automated tool that handles all the legwork required to gain access and perform defacing operations.
To deface a web site, all the malicious user has to do is give the name of the web site to the script and run it. If the web site is vulnerable to attack (that is, if it does not have the appropriate patches applied), the front page (index.htm, default.htm, default.asp or variants) is changed to read "PoizonB0x Ownz YA". This way, hackers can create a batch file with the names of their target web sites, producing a mass defacement of IIS web servers. This script can be adapted and run on both Windows and UNIX machines.
Leftovers: detecting an intrusion
Figure 5: An example of a hacked web site
There are more than 6 different known vulnerabilities for IIS, and hackers and security auditors have created several tools for each that make different use of these issues.
Some administrators will only notice that their web site has been hacked when, instead of seeing corporate material on the company web site, they are instead surprised with something like the example in Figure 5. Of course, this is not the preferred way to detect that your web server has been penetrated!
To make matters worse, many hackers prefer stealth and will not deface a web page. Instead they make sure that they do not leave any traces of their intrusion and may even delete the log files created by IIS to hide their activity so that the administrator will never notice that the server has fallen victim to an attack.
Intrusion detection through centralized event log monitoring
The fact is that almost all exploit tools for IIS servers make use of the same system files that are readily available on the server itself. Therefore, monitoring the activity on these files will catch most malicious activity.
However, to monitor each and every single server and workstation on the corporate network would be far too time-consuming and tedious. Administrators would not be able to cope with such a laborious approach, no matter how much this would help meet their intrusion detection needs.
However, a network-wide security event log monitor such as GFI's LANguard Security Event Log Monitor (S.E.L.M.) conveniently centralizes the security event logs of all your Windows NT/2000 servers and workstations and alerts you to possible intrusions/attacks in real time.
An added benefit of this approach is that, because it analyses the system event logs, rather than sniffing network traffic like standard network-based IDS products do, LANguard S.E.L.M. is not impaired by switches, IP traffic encryption or high speed data transfer.
List of system files
The system files used by most exploit tools for IIS servers are given below. By monitoring file activity here, LANguard S.E.L.M. can detect intruders.
1. cmd.exe: This is the command line emulation program in Windows NT and 2000. From here, users can administer the server via the command line rather than the GUI (the graphic user interface in Windows machines). Hackers use this to create and delete files and run programs.
2. ftp.exe: This is the command line FTP client available with all Microsoft Windows platforms. Hackers use this to obtain the files they need on the server machine from a remote FTP server.
Figure 6: The command line
3. net.exe: This program enables machine administration. Under the system account, hackers can use this tool to create backdoor users and groups, start and stop services, access other machines on the network, and more.
4. ping.exe: This program simply sends an ICMP echo packet to remote hosts. Hackers can use your server together with other vulnerable servers to run ping against a target host, thus creating a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service attack) on the target.
5. tftp.exe: This is a TFTP client that is also available with all Microsoft Windows machines. Some hackers prefer this to ftp.exe and will use it to get the files they need to further penetrate the IIS server.
When a cracker runs cmd.exe using the UNICODE exploit, it is actually run by the Internet Guest Account (IUSR_machinename). Since this user has no business running this file, LANguard S.E.L.M. can log any events in which this account runs cmd.exe. This way, LANguard S.E.L.M. can immediately inform the administrator of the intrusion.
Buffer overflow attacks obtain the SYSTEM account instead. This means that from here, the malicious user who has already intruded the machine can change to any other user and basically do anything that the Operating System itself can. However if LANguard S.E.L.M. is enabled to monitor cmd.exe and log whenever the SYSTEM account has accessed this file, the network administrator will now be able to detect such activity - because to change to another user, tools make use of the command line itself.
How to detect attacks on your server
After examining how intruders operate, administrators can now configure their server and LANguard S.E.L.M. to catch hackers red-handed.
Step 1: Configuring your domain & web server to audit objects
To monitor commonly used files, object auditing must be enabled in Windows 2000. This allows the administrator to be notified via the event log, and benefit from Languard S.E.L.M. by being alerted upon successful intrusion.
If the web server is a standalone server, to enable object auditing, you must:
Figure 7: Audit Policy – object access
- Go to the Local Security Settings. This can be done from the CONTROL panel – Administrative Tools – Local Security Policy.
- From the MMC interface, select Local Policies and then Audit Policy.
- Double-click on Audit Object Access and select Success and Failure.
- If on the other hand, the web server is part of the domain, you must enable object auditing as a Domain Policy (rather than just Local Policy). To enable object auditing:
- Go to Control Panel – Administrative Tools – Domain Security Policy. The same has to be done on the Domain Controller Security Policy, also found in Administrative Tools.
- From the MMC interface, select Local Policies and then Audit Policy.
- Double-click on Audit Object Access and select Success and Failure.
Once that is done, the files you want to audit must be specified. In this case we want to audit: cmd.exe, ftp.exe, net.exe, ping.exe and tftp.exe.
To enable object access auditing to log each time the SYSTEM account and Internet guest account attempt to run cmd.exe:
Figure 8: Security tab
- Right-click on cmd.exe and select Properties.
- Next select the Security tab and click on Advanced (see Figure 8).
- Select the Auditing tab and click on Add.
- Here you can select which users should get logged when they try to access the Object (cmd.exe). Select the SYSTEM account.
- To enable full auditing on cmd.exe / SYSTEM account, select all Successful and Failed options.
- Press OK, select Add and do the same for the IUSR account.
- This procedure must be followed for ftp.exe, net.exe, ping.exe, and tftp.exe.
Step 2: How LANguard S.E.L.M. detects the attack and notifies the admin
LANguard Security Event Log Monitor successfully detects the previously described exploit tools and even upcoming tools which make use of similar methods by checking for object access on the abovementioned files and any other files that you choose to monitor.
LANguard S.E.L.M. distinguishes between the various types of operating systems and takes into consideration the roles they play in a network. It applies different event interpretation methods depending on whether the events are happening on a workstation or on a server or domain controller.
As web servers are a prime target for hackers, it is recommended to mark these machines as either medium or high security computers. Preferably such machines are to be marked as high security in the Computers to Monitor node in the LANguard S.E.L.M. configuration.
The following procedure enables LANguard S.E.L.M to alert the administrator immediately upon attack:
Figure 9: Security tab, LANguard S.E.L.M configuration console
- Start up the LANguard S.E.L.M. Configuration.
- Right-click on Computers to Monitor from the left-hand panel and select New – Single Computer Entry.
- Type in the name of the computer and press Enter.
- In the General tab, select Real Time in the Scanning Schedule section.
- Click on the Security tab, and drag the bar to High Security.
- Done! Click on OK to apply the changes.
LANguard S.E.L.M. will now start scanning the specified computers for suspicious activity. LANguard S.E.L.M. is shipped with a set of categorization rules that filter out the event records and classify them into one of four categories: low, medium, high or critical importance. This way, you can have an instant overview as to whether any critical activity has taken place on your web-server.
LANguard S.E.L.M. is configured by default to collect all object event records. However, if one of the abovementioned files is accessed by the accounts discussed earlier, then the resulting event is classified as critical and you will immediately be notified by email that someone has accessed the file concerned.
On notification, you will be able to take early action and catch the hacker red-handed -- to prevent any further damage.
The events generated when an attack such as the ones discussed earlier are events numbered 560 and 562.
Event 560: Object Open – Meaning the object (e.g. cmd.exe was run) was accessed.
Event 562: Handle Closed – Meaning that the object is no longer in use (e.g. Cmd.exe was closed).
Step 3: Testing your new IDS
Once you have configured your IIS web server with Languard S.E.L.M., you will want to test the new security features.
Figure 10: E-mail alert by LANguard S.E.L.M.
You can do this by creating a new ASP script. If you have properly set up your auditing policies and enabled object access on the indicated files, this script will create and trigger an object audit rule. LANguard S.E.L.M will then collect the generated event from the security event log, and – because a matching rule exists – it will send an email alert to the administrator to advise that cmd.exe has been accessed (see Figure 10).
The script below will simply run cmd.exe and make a directory listing of the C:\ in the background. You can place this file on your IIS server and try to access it via the web browser.
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%' ----------------------------------------------------------------
' SELM_test.asp : used to test Languard S.E.L.M
' By : Sandro Gauci <email@example.com>
' Co : GFi
' ----------------------------------------------------------------
Dim oScript
On Error Resume Next
Set oScript = Server.CreateObject("WSCRIPT.SHELL")
Call oScript.Run ("cmd.exe /c dir C:\", 0, True)
You should now get an alert by Languard S.E.L.M
This ASP script can be downloaded from: ftp.gfi.com/testselm.zip
General note
Using LANguard S.E.L.M. to detect intrusions is vital, but it is equally important that you install the latest Service Packs issued by Microsoft, as well as keeping up-to-date with the latest patches and security alerts.

Popular freeskier Sarah Burke crashed while training on the 22-foot Eagle Superpipe in Park City, Utah, and is reportedly in critical condition a day after being airlifted to a Salt Lake City hospital.
In a statement released by University of Utah physician Safdar Ansari, Burke "sustained serious injuries and remains intubated and sedated." Her prognosis is unknown but she is reported to have hit her head while attempting to land a trick. Chris Nelson, assistant vice president for public affairs at the hospital, revealed that Burke had surgery Wednesday afternoon.
Canadian Freestyle Ski Association CEO Peter Judge said the severity of Burke's injury is not yet known but the Ski Channel reports that the life-saving surgery on Wednesday was to repair a torn vertebral artery.
The surgeon, William T. Couldwell, M.D. Ph.D elaborated upon the situation in a statement released earlier this morning, "With injuries of this type, we need to observe the course of her brain function before making definitive pronouncements about Sarah's prognosis for recovery," said Couldwell. "Our Neuro Critical Care team will be monitoring her condition and response continuously over the coming hours and days."
Burke is widely considered the foremost pioneer for her main sport of freestyle halfpipe. She lobbied aggressively to have it included in the Winter Olympics, where it will debut at the 2014 Sochi Games.
The 29-year-old Canadian, a four-time Winter X Games gold medalist had been scheduled to defend her 2011 title later this month in Aspen, Colo. Burke was also named 2007's Best Female Action Sports Athlete at that year's ESPY Awards.
Fans and members of the skiing and snowboarding community have flooded Burke's Facebook page and tweeted @sarah_j_burke well-wishes. The family is encouraging the use of the #believeinsarah hashtag.
U.S. competitor Jen Hudak told USA Today "All of the women, and men for that matter, in freeskiing love and respect Sarah. She broke ground and opened so many doors for all of us. This is a very scary moment in women's freeskiing, freeskiing as a whole really. But if there is anyone that can pull through this, it is Sarah. The whole world is behind her ."
Burke's publicist, Nicole Wool, issued this statement: "At this time, her family is asking that everyone respect their wishes of making Sarah's health and recovery a priority. The family will send an update once they have all the information. They are with her now."
Burke's husband, Rory Bushfield, told the Vancouver Sun: "Sarah is a very strong young woman and she will most certainly fight to recover."
Snowboarder Kevin Pearce sustained a traumatic brain injury after a fall on the same halfpipe while training for the 2010 Olympics. Now 24, the Vermont native was considered a primary rival to snowboarding star Shaun White until his accident. After weeks in a coma and months in various hospitals, Pearce is still undergoing rehabilitation for his balance, eyesight and memory.
Pearce got back on a snowboard last month for the first time since the accident. The parallels between the two accidents are unavoidable. Pearce's near fatal injury and Burke's condition are putting the spotlight on safety in the world of extreme sports. Have halfpipes become too large and the tricks performed in them too dangerous?
Park City's pipe is notoriously steep and the slick sides and quick transitions pose a great deal of potential danger. The superpipe hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics men's and women's snowboard halfpipe events and the 2011 FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships halfpipe competition.
The LA Times reports: "There were about 446,788 sports-related head injuries that were treated at hospital emergency rooms in the U.S. in 2009, according to an American Assn. of Neurological Surgeons study that used data from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. That's up 95,000 from the year before, and most mainstream sports, such as cycling, baseball, water sports and basketball saw increases in injury rates.
All athletes, particularly those involved in action sports, are well aware of the risks. They take precautions, wearing helmets and even working with air bags to practice landings. Unfortunately, it's not always enough. We wish Sarah a speedy recovery and our thoughts are with her friends and family during what must be an extremely difficult time.
For those unfamiliar with the superstar skier, here's a video profile of Sarah and her husband, Rory. They talk about their love for the mountains, their love for each other and after watching, you can't help but love her. #BelieveInSarah

Get ready, New Hampshire. You might be the next beneficiary of yet another medical marijuana bill.
The Senate sat down Wednesday to vote for the cannabis bill for the state of New Hampshire. The official tally of votes was 284-66, in favor of approving the proposed legislation to sell marijuana for medical purposes. Gov. Maggie Hassan was reportedly interested in this new version of the bill, and has declared her intention to sign it, according to a news release.
The state is projected to house four marijuana dispensaries where a patient can procure a maximum of 2 ounces of pot to treat a wide variety of diseases and disorders. Each dispensary will have limitations in terms of the number of cannabis plants on stock.
Meanwhile, patients are considered qualified to purchase medical marijuana if all of the following conditions have been satisfied: (1) a prescription was provided by a doctor who is handling the patient's care for a minimum of 90 days, (2) other types of medication have been tried but contraindications or adverse effects were experienced by the patient, and (3) the patient is a resident of New Hampshire.
The newly minted law contains revisions, particularly the removal of the option for home growing of marijuana. Gov. Hassan initially nixed the original version of the legislation, but gave her approval after the provision on pot home-growing was eliminated.
A similar bill for medical cannabis was approved by the Illinois Senate, but state governor Pat Quinn has yet to sign the legislation.

Flora, a 6-3 redshirt junior from Bremerton (Wash.) High School, became a key player in SU's rotation last season when he averaged 5.9 points in nearly 17 minutes per game. He hit 35 percent of his three-pointers and finished second on the team in threes behind senior starter Chad Rasmussen.
The highlight of Flora's sophomore campaign was an 18-point effort against Texas-Arlington on Feb. 16, when "Juice" hit 7-of-9 shots from the field and 3-of-5 beyond the arc. Flora also hit 4-of-8 from long distance against Texas-San Antonio on Jan. 24, and he hit a triple in each of Seattle U's final three games of the season.
"He shoots the lights out," Redhawks coach Cameron Dollar says of Flora. "I'm looking forward to him having a really good year. From a scoring standpoint, a breakout year. He can score in a variety of ways. ... He's worked hard on his shooting to become a deadeye, knockdown shooter."
After using the spring and summer to put some more muscle on his 185-pound frame, improve his ball handling and (of course) fine-tune his shot, Flora will compete for a starting job and could see time at two-guard, small forward and even a little point guard. Here, the versatile Flora talks about his biggest strength on the court:
REDHAWK NATION: What did you work on this offseason?
Jarell Flora: I worked mainly on my guard skills. I did some form shooting to make sure my jumper is still on. I gained a little weight -- about five pounds, maybe. I tried to maintain and keep consistent and get better every day.
Was that a plan you mapped out with the coaches going into the offseason?
When we got done last season, we just went back at it. We went hard every day. We didn't really have to talk about it, we just went out there and performed.
What does your form-shooting workout consist of?
I start right under the basket and just get my form right, get my legs under me. Then I step out a little more, then shoot some free throws. I want to keep my form consistent, so it's all one motion and I'm using my whole body. During the season I'll get more reps up and work on the shooting machine.
What is your in-season shooting regimen?
I try to get at least 500 shots up a day, before practice and after practice. I'll shoot 100 from five spots around the arc, about half mid-range and half threes from each spot.
Has shooting been a natural part of your game since you started playing, or did you turn yourself into a shooter?
I'd say I've always been pretty good at it. My Dad was a shooter, so I learned a lot from him. "Shooters shoot" -- that was his motto. He taught me that you have to keep at it, be consistent and try to get shots up each and every day.
Can you watch and learn from other shooters on the NBA or college level?
I really like watching Ray Allen, his ability to run off screens and not always having to use the ball to get open.
How much have you tinkered with your shooting form over the years?
I think my form just progressed naturally over time. When I was younger it was a little different just because I wasn't as strong. I've changed it a little: making sure to keep my elbow in, my off-hand barely touching the ball, keeping the palm of my hand on the ball. And the follow-through, that's really important.
What's your favorite spot on the floor?
My favorite is probably the left wing.
Can someone become a great shooter without having the perfect form?
I think if you're comfortable with your shot, the possibilities are limitless. You don't have to have a specific form. There are a lot of shooters that have ugly jump shots...
Shawn Marion comes to mind...
Exactly. But if you get enough reps and are confident in your shot, it can work for you.
Point guards talk about knowing where their teammates like to catch the ball and making an effort to place their passes in that spot. How much does the catch impact your shot?
I don't really think it's where you catch it, but whether you're ready to catch it. If you're not ready, you might be off-balance or you might not be set and it's going to throw your timing off. If you're ready to sit down and shoot and you don't have to double-clutch or anything, you can catch it almost anywhere and still get a good shot.
What do you mean by "sit down and shoot"?
That just means having a good posture, knees slightly bent, so you can put your legs into the shot. I always try to have one foot back, to give me a little head start.
People say your legs are just as important as your arms when shooting.
Yeah. I mean, I don't think leg strength is as big of a deal as people think it is to a shooter, but having good posture is important.
What's your shooting regimen on game day?
I start with some layups just to get my legs warm, then take a couple steps out and get some jump shots in. Then free throws. Free throws really help you get your legs under you and get your jump shot going. I take a few threes after that. Mainly I just try to stay warm.
How do you respond if you're in a shooting slump?
It's all about your ability to adjust. Hitting a couple of shots in a row is a big confidence booster, but if you're missing, you have to be able to analyze your shot -- maybe it's going far left, maybe it's going short -- so you can find your consistency.
You can be "the shooter" on this team, but I assume you want to do more than just stand in the corner and wait for a pass. How do you see your role on the team this season?
Being a scorer, whether it's coming off the bench or starting. Playing good defense. I take pride in my one-on-one defense. Also rebounding. I think I've improved on that this year: boxing out better, keeping an eye on the ball and getting position for the angle where it might come off the rim.
The stats show that you improved from your freshman year to your sophomore year. What would you consider an improvement from your sophomore year to your junior year?
My mindset right now is just on winning the WAC championship. I think we have enough potential to win it. Then we can go on to the NCAA tournament.

|Patrice Bergeron: 'We haven't done anything yet'
|06.09.11 at 7:48 pm ET
VANCOUVER — The Bruins have returned to Vancouver having tied the Stanley Cup finals after dropping the series' first two games and winning two at home. Though the 2-0 hole may have seemed insurmountable, the Bruins were able to overcome it for the second time this offseason. With the team still two wins away from their first Stanley Cup championship since 1972, center Patrice Bergeron said now is not the time for the B's to feel accomplished.
"We've done it against Montreal, when were down 2-0 [in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals], so we knew we could do it, but with that being said, we haven't done anything yet," Bergeron said Thursday at Rogers Arena. "Yes, we came back, but we need to make sure we're not stopping there."
The Bruins and Canucks will play Game 5 Friday night at Rogers Arena.
|Claude Julien: 'We've got to bring our game with us'
|at 12:16 pm ET
Now comes the hard part.
The Bruins have turned the 2011 Stanley Cup finals upside down. They have overcome two remarkably heartbreaking losses in Vancouver by not just beating the Canucks on their Garden home ice but running the Sedin twins and the rest of the Western Conference champs right out of the building.
The Bruins dominated in every way possible, outscoring the Canucks, 12-1, in the two wins to even the series and turn it into a best-of-3.
Now, the Bruins have to carry that momentum with them on their cross-continent flight and translate it enough on the Rogers Arena ice on Friday night to give them a chance to win the Cup on that same Garden ice on Monday night.
How do they do it?
"I think we've got to bring our game with us, simple as that," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "We have to bring our game. That has to continue in Vancouver. It doesn't matter where you are, you got to play the same way whether you're at home or on the road."
And that mean laying out the hits, doing everything possible to keep the aggressive Tim Thomas in his comfort zone between the pipes, and continuing an amazing run on the penalty kill.
In the two wins, the Bruins outhit the Canucks 67-58 and Thomas stopped a remarkable 78 of 79 shots on goal, primarily because he saw nearly every single one of them. That's where it gets tricky. The Canucks will no doubt run more bodies at Thomas in front and the Bruins defenseman must continue to clear bodies away. Read the rest of this entry »
|Tim Thomas has isolated himself from the outside world
|at 2:42 am ET
All series long, Tim Thomas has ignored everything the Canucks have said about his style of play. After Game 2, he ignored critics who questioned how often he leaves his net. Interestingly enough, Thomas has also ignored fans and media who have lauded him throughout the playoffs.
When asked about his relationship with Boston and the love fans have for him, Thomas gave an interesting answer.
"I've been so focused on playing in the playoffs that I'm a little bit removed from what's happening inside the city right now," Thomas said.
That isn't to say Thomas doesn't care about Bruins fans or anything like that. He just doesn't want anything interrupting his focus on the games.
"I felt that it was the best way to approach these playoffs and the Final," Thomas said. "The best way to keep my feet on the ground is to kind of isolate myself. That's what I've kind of done. I've stayed away from reading the media and watching the media and stuff like that."
When asked if isolating himself like that has helped him get into a zone this series, Thomas said it certainly hasn't hurt.
"I felt like that for a lot of this year, to be honest with you," Thomas said. "I have felt good in the Final so far. I'm just going to keep doing the same thing that I've been doing to try to have the same success that I've had."
Instead of soaking in the accolades and acclaim during what little free time he has, Thomas is soaking in the sun.
"Spend some time with my kids. Spend some time by the pool with this nice weather that we've had," Thomas said. "That's really about all we've had time for. It isn't like we've had a ton of time at home.
"My little boy is trying to get me to play hockey. I'm like, 'I'm a little bit too tired. Wait till this summer.' "
It's safe to say Thomas' son would be OK with the wait if dad can get two more wins.
On Wednesday night at TD Garden, as the Bruins took the ice for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals against Vancouver, Rich Peverley had some extraordinarily large shoes to fill.
After all, Nathan Horton has done it all this postseason for the Bruins – especially in the clutch. There was the overtime winner in Game 5 against Montreal. There was the overtime winner in Game 7 against Montreal.
And there was game-winner against Tampa Bay in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals.
But Horton won't be playing anymore this season. Peverley was moved up to the top line of David Krejci and Milan Lucic and responded with first and last goals of a 4-0 thumping of the Canucks to even the series at 2-2 going back to Vancouver.
Peverley wasn't informed he was on the top line until just before the game.
"Just before warm-ups," Peverley said when asked when he found out he was playing on the top line. "I had no idea who was going to go in there, if it was going to be me or [Michael Ryder]. Rydes took a lot of shifts with them too. [Tyler Seguin] was in there, too. Nothing is set in stone.
"I haven't contributed as well as I think I could, offensively. Anytime you can help out, especially in this environment, you want to do so."
Julien has experimented with different looks for his top line and came to the conclusion before Game 4 that Peverley was his choice.
"We had different looks," Julien said. "We saw [Michael] Ryder go up there a few times as well when Rich was killing penalties. I said I'd use different players at that position. Pev's got good speed. Their line had forechecks pretty well with Lucic on one side. We thought we'd keep that going. He still has pretty decent hands. We thought we would start with that. Michael is another guy who can fit on that line as well. Certainly Tyler [Seguin] was a consideration. His skill and speed level on that line at times also."
What the Canucks lack in goals against Tim Thomas, they make up for with talk about him. Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault and his players have had plenty to say about the Boston netminder all series. It started out in Vancouver when Vigneault questioned whether or not Thomas was entitled to ice outside his crease, and whether or not he should be allowed to have a clear path back to the crease. Vigneault said the refs were being too lenient by letting Thomas set up outside his crease, despite the fact that the NHL rulebook says a goalie is allowed to do that.
Then after Game 3, several Canucks players questioned whether or not Thomas' check on Henrik Sedin was legal. The complaints about Thomas wandering from his crease continued as well.
So it should come as no surprise that the Canucks once again chimed in on what Thomas can and can't do after Wednesday's Game 4. This time the grievances were the result of a scrum late in the third. Alexandre Burrows slashed Thomas' stick and leg while the Canucks were on the power play, so Thomas slashed him back. Burrows responded with a cross-check on Thomas and a scrum ensued.
Henrik Sedin, however, either didn't see Burrows' initial slash or he simply chose to ignore it, because he said after the game that he fully expects the refs to pay more attention to Thomas' antics next game.
"I'm sure the referees are going to take a look at that and look for it next game," Sedin said. "It's not the first time it happened and it's not going to be the last time. I think the referees are looking at the same tape that we are.
"They're going to do that for sure. They're going to look at those tapes and they're going to see what goes on with [Zdeno] Chara and Thomas in front, and they're going to have to call those. It's not going to continue."
When asked to respond to everything the Canucks are saying about him, Thomas said he's not worried about what they're saying.
"I don't think it was ever an issue to begin with," Thomas said. "I think it was made an issue by the people that were talking about it. But in reality, it was never an issue."
As for his slash of Burrows Wednesday night, Thomas offered a drastically different account than that of Sedin. Thomas said it was the Canucks who were doing the agitating all night and not getting called for it.
"They'd been getting the butt end of my stick, actually," Thomas said. "They did it a couple times on the power play in the first period, also. … That was like the third time that [Burrows] hit my butt end on that power play. The game was getting down toward the end, so I thought I'd give him a little love tap and let him know, 'I know what you're doing, but I'm not going to let you do it forever.' "
Claude Julien revealed a surprise to the Bruins following their 4-0 win over the Canucks in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup finals Wednesday: concussed right wing Nathan Horton.
Horton was declared out for the remainder of the playoffs due to a severe concussion, the result of a blindside hit from Canucks defenseman Aaron Rome Monday. He came in the room after Wednesday's game to pass on the team's 1980's jacket, awarded to the game's MVP. Horton still had the jacket in his stall because he had scored the game-winning goal in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals and the team did not want to take it from him. On Wednesday, he came in to give the jacket to Rich Peverley, who scored two goals filling in for Horton on the first line.
"It was pretty emotional," Peverley said. "Nathan came in, and he's a big part of this team. Just to be able to see him and know that he's healthy and safe, that's very important to us."
Julien did not tell the team that Horton was in the building, and it was a pleasant surprise for his teammates.
"I didn't know," linemate David Krejci said. "It was a good feeling when [Julien] said that Horty was here. It was good to see him smile, telling us he's feeling OK, he's feeling much better. It was good to see him."
The pre-game festivities featured Bobby Orr waving Horton's No. 18 flag, and as the Bruins built their lead, chants of "Nathan Horton" rang out from the crowd.
"He's such a good team guy," Shawn Thornton said of Horton. "He does everything for us and he has all year. Everybody on this team loves him. He makes everybody around him feel better about themselves. I mean, I don't think I've ever met a more positive guy in the room. For him to come in, guys were pretty excited."
|Tim Thomas shuts out Canucks, Bruins even series
|06.08.11 at 10:57 pm ET
By DJ Bean and Scott McLaughlin
The Bruins evened the Stanley Cup finals up at two games apiece Wednesday night at TD Garden, chasing Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo on the way to a 4-0 win. Tim Thomas picked up his third shutout of the playoffs.
Rich Peverley, seeing time on the first line with Nathan Horton out for the remainder of the playoffs, had a two-goal night for the Bruins. His second of the night chased Luongo in the third period, making way for Marblehead native and former Boston College goalie Cory Schnieder. Peverley had entered the game with two goals the entire postseason.
Michael Ryder and Brad Marchand also scored for the B's. Both players have scored in consecutive games.
As for Thomas, he has now allowed only five goals over his last five games, and one goal over the last two. He took a vicious hack at Alexandre Burrows after the Vancouver winger cross-checked him in the third period. Thomas took a slashing minor for the play.
The pre-game ceremonies were topped off by Bruins legend Bobby Orr waving a No. 18 flag in honor of Horton. With the B's leading in the third period, chants of "Nathan Horton" filled the arena.
The B's and Canucks will head to Vancouver for Friday's Game 5. The teams will return to the Garden for Game 6 on Monday, the last Bruins' home game of the season.
– Claude Julien's decision to give both Peverley and Ryder time on the first line in place of Horton paid off. David Krejci gave a nice pass to Peverley in the neutral zone in the first period, and Peverley flew past Raffi Torres en route to beating Luongo on a breakaway. Even following the goal, Ryder continued to see time with Krejci and Milan Lucic. Lucic and Krejci picked up assists on Peverley's third-period goal, which chased Luongo from the game.
– Marchand was clearly a man on a mission, and for the second straight game, he was able to cash in. No, his second-period goal wasn't anywhere near as pretty as his shorthanded goal in Game 3, but he certainly displayed a high level of skill and fanciness in putting together sound rushes. He also displayed his signature feistiness, though he needed to be calmed down a couple of times after dives from Henrik Sedin.
– We wrote here after Game 3 that the Bruins did a good job exposing Luongo's weak glove — three of Monday's goals beat the netminder high to the glove side. Ryder continued that trend in Game 4 when he snapped off a fluttering shot that Luongo just waved at with the leather. Luongo might've been screened a bit by his own defenseman, but it was still a shot he should've had. It wasn't a rocket and it wasn't a snipe — it was actually only about two feet off the ice. Not every shot high-glove is going to go in, but the Bruins would be well-advised to keep shooting there until Luongo proves he can stop it.
– When it came to his normal role as a third-liner, Ryder got some help from an old friend in Tyler Seguin. The rookie turned in a characteristically timid play in the Canucks' zone, stopping short of going in the corner and allowing the Canucks to break it out as a result, but made up for it later in the shift by feeding Ryder.
Seguin's assist was his first point since Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. The Bruins are going to need both Ryder and Seguin to turn in big performances going forward, and on Wednesday Seguin showed that the good can outweigh the growing pains.
– When Peverley scored with 8:01 left in the first, shots were 7-5 Vancouver. Whether the Bruins eased up a little after the goal or the Canucks just picked up their play, shots for the rest of the period were 5-1 in favor of Vancouver. The Canucks didn't generate a ton of sustained pressure or long offensive-zone possessions, but they were able to get shots on rushes and force Thomas to make some quality saves. The shot deficit carried over into the second, as Vancouver registered eight of the period's first nine shots. The Bruins pressured Vancouver's defense plenty during the first eight minutes of the second — even controlled play at times — but they couldn't translate it into shots.
-At 16:10 of the first period, Marchand was called for cross-checking Kevin Bieksa. At full speed, it was easy to see why the ref thought it was a penalty, but replay showed that it was a pretty soft call. Bieksa had lost an edge and was already falling to the ice when Marchand barely got his stick on Bieksa's back. Luckily, it didn't cost the Bruins thanks to another great penalty kill.
Bieksa later rewrote the book on embellishment when he grabbed his face following a check from Mark Recchi in the third period. He apparently sold it well enough, as Recchi was sent to the box for high-sticking despite not making contact with his face in any way. Yes, Recchi should have controlled his stick better, but that's a tough break when you don't commit the infraction.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
That is great, you really did a good job. Now I just have to find the money for the tablet...
Thank you. my tablet has a slide out keyboard that I sometimes use with a small throw pillow in bed, which is better than nothing but not great. I saw a pillow like this in a catalog that was for a book or ereader, that was pretty pricey, and not big enough for a tablet. It also had the tassel. Which I think was for a bookmark..but was on a thick cord that I think would prevent a book from closing. I couldn't find any tassels at JoAnn fabric or Walmart so decided to leave it out. I briefly considered using some webbing to make a loop as a handle.
I admit it took me about a week of thinking about it and playing with paper before bought the suede fabric. The suede one has pockets too. I cut extra triangles and put them behind the main body one, and folded the original side down and made a hem, then stiched it in. I would hold a pair of reading glasses or a bookmark, or a stylus for the tablet.

During surgery, your child will be given some form of anesthesia - medication administered for the relief of pain and sensation during surgery. The type and dosage of anesthesia is administered by the anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist. When your child is scheduled for surgery, you and your child will meet with the anesthesiologist before the procedure. The anesthesiologist will review your child's medical condition and history to plan the appropriate anesthetic for surgery.
There are various forms of anesthesia. The type of anesthesia your child will receive will depend on the type of surgery and your child's medical condition. Usually, an anesthesiologist will administer a sedative to make your child sleepy, in addition to the anesthetic. The different types of anesthesia include the following:

I don't sell cards to lose money and I wouldn't blow smoke up someone's ass to make them think anything other than the truth. How about you let the people who ARE listing, packaging, sorting, going to the post office, etc. comment on the cost of doing business. I consistently maintain a 10-15% profit margin AFTER fees and overhead, so I feel I can comment on a product's value accurately. I don't work for Topps. I work full time for a local school district, making an average salary, that I supplement with an eBay business on the side.
I am starting to notice a trend here though. Most of the big sellers don't even comment here any more. They silently run their businesses and let everyone else complain about Topps, eBay and Paypal, and how everyone is getting robbed and losing money. Too bad society has become so liberal and blame-happy. We now live in a place where hard work, intelligence, and perseverance is out of style. It's sad.
You are the minority(making money) in the collecting business. The AVERAGE collector gets smashed buying cards. I have made alot and lost alot in the card business(actual business). The card companies are very deceptive in descriptions and policies. The venue for the sellers(ebay) is ridiculously against sellers.
To me the average collector is lucky to break even and enjoy the hobby. But to say it is easy to make money in the collecting business is not correct, if it was easy, everyone would do it. So you see the MAJORITY complaining.
