Though Sen. Mark Warner amended a controversial cybersecurity bill to increase congressional oversight, proponents of privacy and computer security say it still isn't enough to overcome broader concerns.
The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence voted 12–3 last week to forward the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act to the full Senate for consideration.
If enacted in its current form, the 46-page bill will provide businesses a way to share information on potential cyberthreats or attacks with the federal government. The government can then use "countermeasures" that prevent, reduce or otherwise defend against an attack.
The committee has sent the bill to the overall Senate for additional discussion.
Jake Laperruque, a fellow at the nonprofit Center for Democracy and Technology, said the bill has a well-meaning purpose—making it easier for businesses to relay information to federal authorities—but contains vague language and broad concepts that raise serious privacy concerns.
He said that there are no clear limits on what information can be shared or used, and that preserving the privacy of names, IP addresses and other personal information in what gets shared is not guaranteed.
Warner's amendment, as outlined in the bill text, requires a report from the Director of National Intelligence within the first six months of the bill's enactment.
The report on "cyberattacks, theft, and data breaches" would include reports on relationships with nations the United States shares cyberthreat information with, analysis of countries and nonstate actors that pose cyberthreats and an assessment of the nation's response to attacks or precursor events up to that point.
A statement from Warner called cyberattacks "a significant economic and national security threat" to the country.
"It is essential that we take meaningful steps now to defend against this threat and improve our capability to do so," Warner said in a release.
Laperruque said the amendment, which provides a marked improvement in oversight, doesn't hurt the bill, but is not an overly effective fix.
"There's always value in having more congressional oversight over any type of instance which the government might be collecting or monitoring Americans' communications," he said. "But in terms of effectiveness, it still doesn't address more serious substantive issues in the bill."
Paul Logan, communications director for Republican senatorial candidate Ed Gillespie, said that their camp was still reviewing the bill's final text.
"While we must work to prevent cyberattacks, legitimate concerns about privacy have been raised by members of both parties," Logan said. "Ed Gillespie would ensure that any cybersecurity legislation includes strong safeguards for our civil liberties and personal privacy."
Michael DePaepe, the executive vice president and chief operations officer of Reveille Systems, a Fredericksburg information technology and management consultation business, said the bill doesn't safeguard personal information and is likely to do the "private entities" it aims to assist more harm than good.
"The government is going to do what it thinks is best for national security," he said, "It's geared more toward getting info about an attack into the intelligence community's hands quickly."
DePaepe, who has over 20 years of experience in computer security, said the burden for securing personal information should remain with businesses, not the federal government.
"Businesses have an inherent responsibility to customize and employ methods to protect their privacy. If not, they're just asking for trouble," he said.
DePaepe said that businesses should have established security protocols that limit people from gaining free access to their systems.
Whether that be through a firewall, password-protected wireless network or a hard-to-hack password would be up to the business.
"If you can put up that first layer of defense," DePaepe said, "then your concerns on privacy as far as this act go are lessened because you're already taking those steps."

Project status: Completed
The Kelvin Grove Urban Village is a heterogenous inner-city master-planned community that provides a unique chance to research the intersection of new media opportunities (e.g., internet and mobile phone applications) and the challenges of new urban developments. Using social network theory, the study will map the communicative ecologies of urban residents and the way they access and use the cultural, educational, and civic assets in their locale.
Read details
The project will employ a new methodological approach that connects new media, community intervention and urban studies paradigms. The resulting cross-disciplinary framework designed to stimulate socio-economic innovation will lead to urban sustainability and healthier local economies.
This study will deliver a better understanding of the factors that stimulate an innovation culture in local communities. It will develop knowledge of how social, cultural, educational, economic capital can be of service in encouraging public consultation, civic engagement and debate, and assist Australians to be creative and innovative in everyday life.
Understanding the opportunities of social networks will help Australians negotiate the complex web of daily choices, access a greater social safety net, participate in the socio-cultural and socio-economic life in their city. This will lead to greater social inclusion, fair access to and smart use of local information and services, urban sustainability and healthier local economies.

Gnapplet driver
Most of the modern phones are based on the Symbian OS. These phones have broken the convention and replaced the traditional FBUS protocol framework by a new one. The new protocol provides synchronizational functionality, but the older one was more powerful. This is one of the reasons we decided that analysis of the new protocol is time wasting. A client-server application was created. The client part is built into libgnokii, the server part runs on the phone and is called gnapplet. These communicate with our own protocol and are tightly coupled, so you have to use the same version on both side.
Gnapplet source code of the server applicationis licensed under the GNU GPL, and can be downloaded from the gnokii cvs. Compiling gnapplet requires special tools, you can look into gnupoc (http://www.gnupoc.org). Installing the Nokia SDK isn't easy, so we provide a pre-compiled version (file gnapplet.sis) in the utils directory of the tarball (last version of which can be downloaded from http://gnokii.org/download/gnokii/).
(notice http://www.gnokii.org/download/gnapplet/ only contains obsolete versions)
You can install the SIS file as you would do with any other symbian application. You can transfer it to the phone over the OBEX protocol (OBEX is available over IrDA or Bluetooth or cable connection).

Configuration settings
You can use the following settings in your gnokiirc to access the phone:
Bluetooth connection
[global] port = _bluetooth_address_ rfcomm_channel = 14 model = symbian connection = bluetooth
IrDA connection
[global] port = /dev/ircomm0 model = symbian connection = irda
TCP/IP connection
This is disabled by default, you have to edit
gnapplet.ini on your phone to enable it.
[global] port = 169.254.1.68:1912 (put the IP address of your phone here) model = symbian connection = tcp
Phone configuration
You have to start gnapplet first each time you want to use it (you'll find it in the phone menu), then start
gnokii or xgnokii. After gnokii disconnects (or you won't connect in 30
seconds), the application will terminate.
You can edit
gnapplet.ini on your phone to change the timeout (set it to -1 for infinite) and the other settings.
The following are the default values:
irda_support = 1 bt_support = 1 bt_rfchannel = 14 tcp_support = 0 tcp_port = 1912 init_timeout = 30 reinit_timeout = 5
The current code is able to:
- identify the phone
- read/write/delete phonebook entries
- read/delete call log (missed, received, dialled calls)
- read the memory status
- read network info
- read RF/battery level
- read/set clock, read/set alarm
- read/write/delete calendar entries
- read/write/delete todo entries
- send/receive sms
- read profile entries, read/set the active profile
- phonebook handling is quite limited:
- name isn't set or read correctly
- missing attributes
- no group handling
- missing SIM memory handling
- gnapplet seems to not work on SymbianOS v3 devices (eg. Nokia 5500)
- implement the missing things :-)

Right now there are only about 2,500 SEALs on active duty in a range of missions worldwide, virtually all of them secret.
The Army would pay for Kole to complete his undergraduate degree, and he would return to active duty as a second lieutenant.
Therefore, all mental-health services for active duty fall under the DoD.
We sometimes go to ball games together, Tom and I, and the active duty military stand up and everybody claps, which is nice.
So will pregnancy - which is of course grounds for removing women from active duty.
Officers on the retired list receive three-fourths as much pay as when on active duty at sea.
They had served together in the Space Service when Mike was on active duty.
There were mechanical difficulties in securing for enlisted men in active duty leave to attend a caucus in Paris.
The appointment was for life, but they took it in turns to be on active duty.
Many will be involved in this effort, from FBI agents to intelligence operatives to the reservists we have called to active duty.

Same sex marriage advocates are planning a 2015 blitz on western Sydney as part of a push across 50 key federal electorates for the enactment of marriage equality legislation before the next election.
With public support for same-sex marriage at 72 per cent, according to polling by Crosby/Textor, and a minority of 21 per cent opposed to the reform, marriage equality advocates say the issue has the ability to turn votes at the election and the major parties ignore it at their peril.
Of that 72 per cent in favour, 48 per cent "strongly support" gay marriage, which is a higher figure than the primary vote for both parties, and about equivalent to the Coalition's two-party preferred vote at present.
"The community debate is essentially over," said Rodney Croome, the national director of lobby group Australian Marriage Equality.
"If the Coalition is to win back the middle ground at the election, it must make an appeal to that 48 per cent who strongly support [gay marriage]."
The major obstacle to successful same sex marriage legislation is the absence of a free Coalition vote on the issue.
Prime Minister Tony Abbott said before the last election that the issue of a free vote would be a "matter for the post-election party room" but it has not yet been dealt with, despite Mr Abbott committing in December to allow Liberals a free vote on the conscience issue of euthanasia.
South Australian Liberal Senator Simon Birmingham, a same-sex marriage supporter, said the issue was not a vote-winner for the Coalition but could become a distraction for the government if it was not tackled this parliamentary year.
"Whilst I've long had in-principle support for change [to the Marriage Act], I don't believe it's an issue which influences the voting intention of the vast majority of people," he said.
Coalition MPs on both sides of the debate privately acknowledge the free vote issue will have to be addressed by the party room in 2015. But even if Coalition MPs were allowed a free vote, same-sex marriage legislation is by no means assured to pass either House, hence the push for seat-by-seat lobbying.
Australian Marriage Equality will blitz the western Sydney electorates of Lindsay (held by Liberal MP Fiona Scott) and the Labor seats of McMahon, Chifley and Parramatta. In Victoria, they will target Liberal-held Corangamite and Casey, and Labor-held Wills, Liberal-held Casey and Gippsland, held by the Nationals.
An increasing number of Western countries and American states are legalising gay marriage.
In the US, 35 states and Washington D.C now issue marriage licences to same-sex couples, a figure which has increased from 18 states a year ago. In 2014, Britain, Finland and Luxembourg legalised gay marriage, adding to a list that already included countries like Argentina, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Canada and New Zealand.
The increasingly globalised nature of same-sex marriage makes for some strange legal anomalies, as Sydney couple Shirleene Robinson and Sarah Midgley well know.
Ms Midgley, an Australian citizen, also holds British and US passports, meaning the couple were able to marry in the British consulate in Sydney last year. For their honeymoon, the couple flew to New York.
"Sarah used her US passport, so at US Immigration, she says, 'This is my wife', and I was able to go through the fast-track queue," Ms Robinson said.
"They understand that if you're married to an American citizen, you don't have to explain it, they just accept it. It was so different to being in Australia, where you're not recognised as being in a marriage relationship at all."
A spokesman for the Prime Minister said any change to the Marriage Act would be a matter for the Coalition party room.

The cure for Alzheimer's Disease is seeing some significant progress at San Diego's Scripps Research Institute, and I couldn't be more glad to hear the news. Hopefully the disease can finally get cured and thereby save the lives of millions around the world.
Scientists at Scripps Research Institute say theyre one step closer to finding a cure for Alzheimers.
Neuroscientists at SRI have found a link between Alzheimers and an enzyme called AMPK that may lead to treatments to slow down or stop the disease.
The over activation of AMPK causes synapsis, said lead researcher Dr. Franck Polleux, professor at Scripps Research Institutes Dorris Neuroscience Center.
Synapsis is the separation of neurons, which end up contributing to a persons memory loss, Polleux explained. When researchers blocked the enzyme on disease models, brain damage slowed down.

The ailing Kingfisher Airlines, hungry for funds, said on Friday it will now be able to re-engage with prospective investors in a "more meaningful manner," after the government allowed foreign carriers to invest in local airlines.
The fortunes of Kingfisher, saddled with $1.4 billion in debt, hang on its ability to raise funds soon.
It needs at least $500 million immediately to keep operating, according to the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation consultancy.
"This will open up a wide range of opportunities for both Indian carriers and foreign carriers who wish to participate in the strong growth potential for civil aviation in our country," Kingfisher said in a statement.
India opened up its supermarket sector to foreign direct investment and allowed foreign airlines to invest in local carriers in a spate of policy actions on Friday, a day after New Delhi raised the price of heavily subsidized diesel in a bold political move.

Train operator CSX Transportation pointed Wednesday to a hazardous chemical in a rail car as the source of an explosion on a derailed train that sparked a fire, rattled homes and damaged buildings. A company spokesman said officials still weren't sure what caused the sodium chlorate to explode, but it ignited another chemical in a second car.
In the third serious derailment in the United States this month, a dozen or so rail cars – at least one carrying hazardous materials – went off the tracks Tuesday in a Baltimore suburb after colliding with a truck. The fire was under control by Wednesday.
Only one person – a garbage-truck driver – was seriously injured. Robert Sumwalt, a member of the National Transportation Safety Board, said investigators were reviewing train video that might show the collision. Sumwalt said the collision occurred at a private crossing where the only marking was a stop sign. He said it wasn't clear whether the truck was authorised to be there.
CSX spokesman Gary Sease said the sodium chlorate in a derailed car near the front of the train exploded, igniting terephthalic acid in another derailed car. Sodium chlorate is used mainly as a bleaching agent in paper production. Oklahoma State university chemist Nick Materer said it could make for a potentially explosive mixture when combined with an incompatible substance such as spilled fuel.
In addition to the NTSB, the Federal Railroad Administration is investigating the crash of the 45-car train.
Baltimore County's public safety department said hazardous materials experts did not believe the burning chemicals would produce toxic inhalants. But a National Institutes of Health website says oxidizers such as sodium chlorate may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases when burned.
Toxic inhalation hazards are a worry when trains carrying hazardous materials derail. They include chemicals such as chlorine, which killed nine people after a derailment of a Norfolk Southern train caused a release of the toxic gas in South Carolina in 2005.

The White House got it wrong. But the good news is they have a chance to set the record straight.
The trouble started when the White House put out a two-minute video that included claims that recent cold spells in the U.S. are linked to global warming. CEI attorneys Sam Kazman and Hans Bader today filed a formal request under the Information Quality Act for the White House to correct the erroneous claims in question:
"In reality, as we explain below, the evidence (including the conclusions of peer-reviewed scholarly articles) indicates that the kind of extreme cold experienced in the United States this past winter is not linked to global warming."
For example: "[White House Science Advisor John] Holdren's claim of 'a growing body of evidence' is contradicted by recent peer-reviewed studies. These studies find that that global warming is not leading to increased atmospheric winter blocking, much less causing an increase in winter cold waves or cold weather."
View a write up of the matter on Globalwarming.org and posted below, along with a link to the request letter. Let me know if you would like to speak to one of the attorneys about this issue, or perhaps forward to a colleague?

Will Cherry Blossoms Get Sucked into the Polar Vortex?
By Sam Kazman
DC's cherry trees hit their official peak blossom date last Thursday, April 10th. That's the latest in the year that the Capital has experienced peak blossoming in over two decades. (For you botanical historians, the last time that peak blossoming occurred this late or later was in 1993, when the event fell on April 11.)
In 2013 the blossoms were almost as late, hitting their peak on April 9. That was a pretty dramatic change from 2012, when the date fell on March 20. This change was most disconcerting to two groups: tourists trying to plan their trips to DC in advance, and global warming alarmists who trumpeted every earlier-than-expected cherry blossom as yet further proof of global warming. In fact, in a sizzling multi-part blog post series last year, followed by dozens of readers, we charted peak blossom dates against global warming data. We even had graphs. (See Adam Sandberg, Peak Bloom Is Here – DC's Global Warming Canary Lands with Frost on its Feet, April 15, 2013.)
The past two years of unusually late blooms largely resulted from unusually cold weather. But unusually cold weather, in the view of White House Science Advisor John Holdren, is actually yet another sign of global warming. Holdren explained this to a freezing yet grateful nation in a two-minute video last January entitled The Polar Vortex Explained in 2 Minutes.
We suspect that Holdren's agency, the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), may now have a second video in the works in this Blame-Everything-On-Global-Warming series. Perhaps they'll call it Delayed Peak Blossoming Explained in 2 Minutes.
Regardless, we think Holdren's first video is scientifically bogus, and so today we're filing a formal Information Quality Act Correction Request with OSTP on that very issue. Who knows—we may yet nip this video series in the bud.

Most rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (pts) who respond to the first course of RTX need retreatment with a second course after 6 to 12 months due to increase in disease activity. However, some pts show a sustained clinical response for a longer period. Our objective was to characterize pts who showed a sustained response after the 1st course of RTX and compare them to those who were not long-term responders.
10 European biologics registries provided anonymized data sets of RA pts treated with RTX in clinical practice for analysis of pooled data. Pts with available retreatment data were eligible for the current analyses. Long-term response was defined as no retreatment during the 1st year AND sustained response (DDAS28 < -1.2 vs. baseline) at months 612, in pts with at least 9 months follow-up. The comparator groupincluded pts retreated during the 1st year and/or without sustained response. Baseline (BL) characteristics, and year 1 and year 2 DAS28 states and changes were compared. Due to heterogeneity in timing of follow-up visits, overall mean DAS28 was calculated for the period 312 months and for year 2. The main effectiveness outcome was mean DAS28 during year 2. Predictors of long-term response were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.
209 pts were classified as long-term responders (LTRs) and 867 were non-long-term responders (NLTRs) (79% of NLTRs were retreated during the 1st year); 93% vs. 88% had >18 months follow-up time. In both groups, 83% were female, 81% received concomitant DMARDs and mean disease duration was 12 years. 84%/82% were RF pos. LTRs were significantly older (mean 55.1 vs. 52.2 years, p=0.005), were more often biologics naïve (51.0% vs. 40.4%, p=0.006) and had higher BL DAS28. Despite higher BL DAS28, % in low disease activity state (LDA) and remission (rem) were higher for LTRs through year 1, and mean DAS28 was lower (Table 1). The difference in mean DAS28 was more or less sustained through year 2, but % in LDA/rem. were similar for most time points. 34% of LTRs were retreated during year 2. Mean(SD) total number of RTX courses from baseline through year 2 was 1.6(1.0) for LTRs vs. 2.6(0.8) for NLTRs (p<0.001). Older age, biologics naivety, higher BL DAS28 and lower HAQ-DI were independent predictors of LTR (Table 2).
Table 1.
|Long-term responders
|Non-long-term responders
|Mean DAS28 months 312
|DAS28 <= 3.2 (LDA) months 6/12
|DAS28 <1.6 (rem.) months 6/12
|Mean DAS28 year 2
|DDAS28 BL to year 2
|DAS28 <= 3.2 (LDA) months 18/24
|DAS28 < 2.6 (rem.) months 18/24
Table 2.
Biologics naïve pts who were older and who had higher disease activity and less functional impairment at baseline were more likely be long-term responders to the 1st course of RTX, and these pts generally sustained a good clinical response through year 2.

If you followed local punk in the '90s, chances are you remember Swelter. The band formed in Puyallup in 1989, as Swelter Cacklebush, eventually shortened its name and went on to become one of South Sound's most popular alt-rock acts.
The group disbanded 15 years ago, but its imprint is still quite visible on the local hard rock scene: Mahnhammer, the F---|ing Eagles, CFA, Argonaut and Mico de Noche are among popular bands that can trace their lineage directly back to Swelter.
"Mahnhammer is pretty darn close to what Swelter was towards the end – just kind of brutal," recalled Micah Hembree, lead screamer for both groups. Laughing, he added, "The only difference now is that we know how to play our instruments."
Swelter's refined musicianship will be on display, at eardrum-shredding decibels, during a Nov. 22 reunion show at Tacoma's New Frontier Lounge. "We're not planning on doing anything else after this," Hembree said. "This is a one-time deal. You've gotta be there, or it's done forever."
Swelter Cacklebush started with four friends from South Hill: Hembree, drummer Stuart Linkert, guitarist Jason Harsin and bassist Chad Baker. Hembree described the band's original sound as being closer to power-pop; but the aesthetic veered in a more foreboding direction after Harsin left the band and guitarists Jason Deitrich and Dave Takata joined up.
"We would set up house parties, play in barns and do all this great stuff," Hembree said. "And we just started getting heavier and heavier and heavier. At the time, we were too metal for the punk-rock kids and too punk-rock for the metal kids. It was an oddity, because people still liked us."
Swelter's sound is captured on two albums: a self-titled debut disc that was initially released in 1996 by local punk imprint, Big Enormous Records, and an unnamed sophomore album that almost didn't see the light of day. Relationships soured before the second disc could be released, but both albums live on thanks to Bandcamp. You can find them at tacoma-swelter.bandcamp.com.
"It was the beginning of the end," Hembree said, recalling recording sessions for the second album.
"Just like with any marriage it's bound to happen. You get in a fight, and sometimes it's done. We had been friends since high school, and we had spent enough time together at that moment in time."
But old wounds healed over the years, and the notion that Swelter needed to play a reunion show became something of a running joke. Then a friend of the band, promoter Brian Skiffington, finally talked them into the New Frontier gig.
"It's a true test of age and humility," Hembree said. "I didn't think some of these people could be in the same room together any more."
Providing support for Swelter on Friday night will be Bali Girls and Negative Press. Music starts after 9 p.m., and the cover charge is $5; (253) 572-4020 or visit www.thenewfrontierlounge.com for further details.

From Crisis to Recovery: East Asia Rising Again?
It is interesting to note that after two years of recession in East Asia, almost all the countries in this region are rising again. In the wake of that sudden onslaught on the economies of East Asia, many new questions have come to the fore (and are waiting for the right answers), such as: How could the Asian countries have become so weak as to totally succumb to the financial crisis? What were the real causes of the crisis? What policy measures have the affected countries taken to combat the crisis and how effective have they been? As for the argument of hands-off policy versus government intervention , which approach was more appropriate for curbing the expansion of the crisis? What are the policy implications of resolving the crisis? Why is East Asia rising again after the two-year recession?The editors of this volume organized a research team composed of 12 leading economists from the ten East Asian countries: Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, mainland China and Japan. One expert from the United States was also invited; he was responsible for making an aggregate analysis of the interdependence of the region in the context of a financial crisis. Two meetings were held the first in April 1999, the second in January 2000.

Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with designing and arranging things people use so that the people and things interact most efficiently and safely. It is also called human engineering. Ergonomics is based on the principle that the job should be adapted to fit the person, rather than forcing the person to fit the job. It focuses design and function of the work environment, and items such as work stations, controls, displays, safety devices, tools, and lighting to fit the employees' physical requirements and to ensure their health and well being.
Ergonomics includes restructuring or changing workplace conditions to make the job easier, and reducing stressors that cause cumulative trauma disorders and repetitive motion injuries. In the area of material handling and storage, ergonomic principles may require controls such as reducing the size or weight of the objects lifted, installing mechanical lifting aids, or changing the height of a pallet or shelf.
Although no approach has been found for totally eliminating back injuries resulting from lifting materials, a substantial number of lifting injuries can be prevented by implementing an effective ergonomics program and by training employees in appropriate lifting techniques.

Shanghai (AFP) March 10, 2014
A total of 72 people died from the H7N9 bird flu strain in China in the first two months of this year, government figures showed, far more than in the whole of 2013.
China reported 41 deaths and 99 cases of H7N9 avian influenza in February alone, the National Health and Family Planning Commission said in monthly figures for infectious disease, bringing the total cases this year to 226.
The Asian country recorded 46 deaths and 144 cases for 2013 in an outbreak which started early in the year and returned in the autumn.
Chinese officials and the World Health Organization (WHO) say there is no evidence of sustained human-to-human transmission but there have been "family clusters" -- involving relatives in close contact apparently infecting each other -- since the new strain appeared in people last year.
The virus ignited fears that it could possibly mutate to become easily transmissible between people, which might threaten to trigger a global pandemic.
Experts have pointed to a seasonal rise in cases so far this year, thought to be linked to cold weather.
"It's largely a seasonal weather change thing and nothing else," the WHO representative in China, Bernhard Schwartlander, told reporters late last month.
"The virus just likes to be in the cold -- it survives more easily. Also in the wintertime the (human) respiratory system is a little bit more fragile," he said.
China has responded to the current outbreak by clamping down on live poultry markets and stepping up monitoring of people with symptoms associated with the virus.
Last week Hong Kong confirmed its sixth case of H7N9 bird flu, and the special administrative region of China has banned live poultry imports from the mainland in an effort to control the disease.

At Food Genius, restaurant menu data is serious business. We spend a great deal of time determining what drives consumer decisions in restaurants. We have discovered that many decisions can be traced right back to the restaurant menu. A restaurant menu is a collection of data points, and as technology advances, so does the ability to capture this data. Restaurants distribute menus across the country with just a few clicks and changes can happen in seconds.
With Food Genius Reports, clients leverage our platform - data and visualizations of that data - to gain a quick and comprehensive understanding of what flavors and flavor combinations are available and trending on menus. This restaurant menu data enable our clients to stay ahead of the curve in identifying emerging trends. The insights gathered from our platform can then be used to impact the creation and marketing of new products.
The big data revolution is just beginning with 90% of the world's digital data produced in just the past two years. For operators, distributors, manufacturers and foodservice companies data is the backbone that drives innovation and growth. For restaurants, the menu is arguably the single largest source of information to inform purchase decisions. The menu informs customers of what products are offered, entices them to purchase or purchase more, and provokes conversations. As restaurants evolve their strategies to keep up with constant change in consumer tastes and demands, we are confident that Food Genius Reports will have a dramatic impact on how the food industry utilizes, analyzes and profits from data.
Brand Manager @ "Major" Food Co. - "One of the major drawbacks of (other company) menu data tool is that it's not easy for me to collaborate with the rest of my team when developing concepts to test."
The Food Genius Solution: With Food Genius Reports you can collaborate with dispersed, diverse teams in an integrated fashion. Food Genius Reports outputs can be easily digested by marketing, sales, or innovation team members and are often shared with C-Suite executives.
Innovation Manager @ Ingredient Manufacturer - "Existing data services base their insights on extremely small sample sizes of menus and locations leading to questions concerning the fidelity of the data and accuracy of the insights generated."
The Food Genius Solution: We have data covering hundreds of thousands of menus, millions of menu items, and several hundred thousands of locations. This is exponentially more coverage than that of any other provider in this space. Bigger data drive better insights and better insights provide you with competitive advantage.
Research & Development Chef @ Product Manufacturer - "Existing research tools are slow and difficult to use."
The Food Genius Solution: Our platform leverages a visual and highly intuitive user interface that allows for quick, and easy exploration of data and concepts.

Pirates notebook: Watson fills closer's role, earns 1st major league save
PHILADELPHIA — With closer Jason Grilli and setup man Mark Melancon unavailable for Thursday's game, manager Clint Hurdle said Tony Watson would be the closer for the series finale against the Phillies.
Turns out, he was also his own set-up man.
The Pirates took a 6-3 lead in the top of the eighth, and Watson entered to face the heart of the Phillies' lineup. The left-hander gave up one run and got out of the inning.
But Watson nearly didn't get a chance to record his first major league save. With two out in the top of the ninth and Neil Walker at third and Starling Marte at bat, Watson was scheduled to bat next. If Marte had reached base, Watson likely would have been lifted for a pinch-hitter.
"We would have had a tough decision to make if Marte walked," Hurdle said.
Russell Martin was on deck, and Vin Mazzaro was warming up, "so we were ready to make whatever move we felt best suited to win the game," Hurdle said.
After Marte struck out, Watson went back out for the ninth. The third-year reliever gave up a leadoff double but got the next three outs for the milestone save.
"Just to come in with a chance to win the series, especially in this place, is a great feeling," Watson said.
Grilli had pitched in four of the previous five games, and Melancon had pitched the previous two nights.
"There will be a time when he's able to go three days," Hurdle said of Melancon. "He's already done it once. We're still not out of April, and I really don't like too many three-day-in-a-row appearances per month, let alone two the first month of the season."
Alvarez vs. the lefties
Pedro Alvarez got the start and went 2 for 5 against the left-hander Cliff Lee. The night before, Alvarez got just his 10th career home run against a lefty when he tagged reliever Antonio Bastardo. It was his first home off a left-handed pitcher since Sept. 16, 2012.
"We'll see where he takes it," Hurdle said. "We all need to work on getting a little better every night, and Pedro's left-on-left thing, he's working hard on it. He's not happy with where it's at, but a home run I think could build some confidence."
McCutchen snaps skid
Andrew McCutchen snapped a career-worst 0-for-17 skid with a single in the seventh inning. Prior to that, the All-Star outfielder's longest stretch without a hit was 16 at-bats (Sept. 25-29, 2012 and April 25-29, 2011).

SUMMERSIDE – A 19-year- Fort Myers, Florida, man was sentenced to three days in jail after pleading guilty Thursday in Summerside provincial court to a charge of impaired driving.
Joseph Dylan Collatarci was stopped by on March 28 at 1:20 a.m. after police observed a vehicle travelling in an erratic manner.
A breathalyzer demand was made and Colatarci recordings of 130 and 120.
In handing down the sentence, Judge Jeff Lantz noted that Colatarci had no previous record and that the highest reading was well below the aggravating limit of 160 contained in the Criminal Code of Canada.
In addition to the jail term, Colatarci was fined $1,000 and ordered to pay a victim fine surcharge of $300.
His driving privileges were suspended for 12 months.

|This climb doesn't see much action--it's pretty dirty. The crack climbing is phenomenal, especially the second and third pitches. Don't be fooled by the odd anchor locations. There are bolted anchors for all three pitches, only above trees/out of clear view. Get ready to get dirty, especially on that first pitch...

One of the most bizarre climbs I've ever been on. All the variations to avoid nice splitter climbing that should comprise P2 make no sense to me, and will make even less sense to you once you're looking at them in person. You will know that something's up when the description tells you to avoid the splitter in the chimney to choose chossy unprotected crumbly face.
Posting more beta on this one would just encourage more people to sample this climb, so I'll refrain. Good luck and have fun kicking yourself that you didn't get on literally any other 5.10 in the park. With a week of cleaning and none of the bolts, this might be a fun climb. As is, you get what you pay for....

Let's be honest, Coach Joe Philbin and his staff probably have a good idea of what 90 percent of the initial 53-man roster will look like, if not more.
It is possible, however, that one, two or more spots could be decided by what happens against New Orleans when the young players will get the bulk of the playing time.
Here's a quick breakdown of what we call the "bubble boys" heading into the preseason finale.
• Quarterback — Pat Devlin is the only one who roster spot is undetermined. Ryan Tannehill and Matt Moore are in, Aaron Corp has no shot. What Devlin needs to do is convince the Dolphins they need to devote a third quarterback roster spot for him. It's possible he's already done so, but a strong performance against New Orleans sure wouldn't hurt.
• Running back — Even counting returner Marcus Thigpen as a running back, the only player here not seemingly assured of a roster spot is Jonas Gray, and the reality that probably only a jaw-dropping performance could save him from the waiver wire.
• Fullback — Evan Rodriguez's path to a roster spot became smoother after Jorvorskie Lane was released on Tuesday, but there's still no guarantee the Dolphins will keep even one fullback. It is likely, however, but Rodriguez still could erase all doubt with a good outing against the Saints.
• Wide receiver — The best guess is the Dolphins will keep five wide receivers on the initial 53-man roster, although keeping six isn't out of the question. Either way, there probably isn't anything completely settled yet beyond the threesome of Mike Wallace, Brian Hartline and Brandon Gibson. That means it's a big game for Rishard Matthews, Marvin McNutt, Chad Bumphis, Brian Tyms and Keenan Davis.
• Tight end — The Dolphins are down to four tight ends after the injury sustained by Dustin Keller, and it's difficult to envision Charles Clay or Dion Sims or Michael Egnew not making the team. Kyle Miller fell behind after getting injured in the Hall of Fame Game and he may be playing for a roster spot Thursday night.
• Offensive line — The top eight appear pretty clear with Martin, Incognito, Pouncey, Jerry, Clabo, Samuda, Garner and Dallas Thomas, which means Jeff Adams, Chris Barker, Sam Brenner, Andrew McDonald and Will Yeatman likely are competing for one spot. The game Thursday night clearly could have an impact in the decision-making process here.
• Defensive line — This is the position where the Dolphins have the most depth, therefore it's the position where there's the least uncertainty. In fact, a case could be made that there is a clear lineup of nine D-linemen for the 53-man roster with Soliai, Starks, Odrick, Wake, Vernon, Jordan, Randall, Shelby and Vaughn Martin. It's really up to the others — Antwan Applewhite, Tristan Okpalaugo, A.J. Francis, Tracy Robertson — to convince the Dolphins coaches they should be kept.
• Linebacker — This is pretty much like the wide receiver spot, where there's a lot of competition beyond the first group. In addition to the three starters, Jason Trusnik is almost a lock to make the team, leaving either two or three spots available among Jelani Jenkins, Austin Spitler, Jonathan Freeny, Josh Kaddu and Lee Robinson. Based on what we've seen this summer, there doesn't appear to be much separating the last four and Jenkins has the advantage of being a fourth-round pick from this year's draft.
• Defensive back — We can see eight spots being all but secured as this point with Jones, Grimes, Taylor, Patterson, Wilson, Carroll, Davis and Clemons. The Dolphins are likely to keep either nine or 10 DBs, meaning there would be two spots available among De'Andre Presley, R.J. Stanford, Don Jones, Kelcie McCray, Julian Posey, Keelan Johnson and Jordan Kovacs. Of that group, Stanford is the one who has stood out the most, and that's because of his work on special teams.

Unclogging L.A.'s Streets
With Mayor Villaraigosa promising to address the city's traffic, newly hired General Manager Gloria Jeff has a lot on her plate. Arriving in Los Angeles with a wealth of state and federal experience, having recently run the Michigan State DOT and having served in the U.S. DOT under President Clinton, she now hopes to tackle the unique challenges presented by the sprawling city and its neighborhoods.
"In this MIR interview, Ms. Jeff explains some strategies for using technology, securing new funds, and coordinating with city departments, such as planning, to keep L.A. moving."

Definitely agree on the key moment to this game. One of the areas the Mets have struggled since the very successful 2006 season, tacking on late. Giving the manager ROPE with the bullpen. When you have to manage every game as if it is a playoff game, it is not going to work out.
Yup, they needed those additional runs for breathing room. It was nice to see the bats have some pop last night. Let's hope this is a sign of things to come and they can keep it going. I'm excited that Reyes is back today!
