Jakarta (AFP) May 17, 2013
An Indonesian court has ruled indigenous people have the right to manage forests where they live, a move which supporters said prevents the government from handing over community-run land to businesses.
Disputes between indigenous groups and companies have become increasingly tense in recent years, as soaring global demand for commodities like palm oil has seen plantations encroach on forests.
In Thursday's ruling, Constitutional Court judges said that a 1999 law should be changed so it no longer defines forest that has been inhabited by indigenous groups for generations as "state forest", according to court documents.
"Indigenous Indonesians have the right to log their forests and cultivate the land for their personal needs, and the needs of their families," judge Muhammad Alim said as he handed down the ruling, state news agency Antara reported.
While environmentalists welcomed the ruling, they warned it could unintentionally lead to an upsurge in disputes between authorities and communities over the classification of indigenous land.
In March, seven villagers were shot and at least 15 police officers were injured in northern Sumatra, where a dispute over a forest claimed by both the community and government has been simmering since 1998.
The National People's Indigenous Organisation filed the challenge to the 1999 law, which they say has let officials sell permits allowing palm oil, paper, mining and timber companies to exploit their land.
The group said Friday's ruling affected 40 million hectares (98 million acres) of forest -- slightly larger than Japan, and 30 percent of Indonesia's forest coverage.
They said this area was legally classified as "customary forest", the term that describes forests that have been inhabited by indigenous people for a long time.
"About 40 million indigenous people are now the rightful owners of our customary forests," said the group's chief Abdon Nababan.
However, a senior forestry minister official said he believed the total amount of "customary forest" was far lower, and stressed it could take time to implement the changes as local governments would all need to issue a decree.
Stepi Hakim, Indonesia director of the Clinton Climate Initiative, said the ruling would give legal grounds for indigenous communities to challenge businesses operating in their forests, but this could lead to a string of new disputes.
"As soon as this policy is delivered, local governments have to be ready to mitigate conflicts," he said.
Indigenous groups are commonly defined as those that retain economic, social and cultural characteristics that are different from those of the wider societies in which they live.

UC Proposes Patient and Student Services Cuts across the State; AFSCME Fights Back!!!
Today around noon over 150 workers, students, religious leaders and community members rallied outside the UCSD Hillcrest Medical Center in protest of the patient services cuts and student services cuts that UC executives are proposing. AFSCME Local 3299 had a statewide day of action on the first day of the UC Regents meeting to show the immense disgust with the continuous irresponsibility to the public demonstrated by the 9.3% increase in student fees last year and the repeated cuts to essential student services and patient services throughout the UC.
We are witnessing a pivotal moment for the economy of California. UC executives are pushing to cut services to patients, increase tuition for students, and hurt countless California families by slashing the hours of over 150, 000 UC workers. Executives are rushing to cut essential services without showing to the public that the cuts are necessary. In fact, UC workers requested budget information over 9 months ago. To date, UC executives have blocked this information—what are the executives hiding? Despite UC executives lack of transparency, there is plenty of evidence to show that with the right priorities, we can preserve essential student services, patient care, and research despite the drop in state funding. UC Hospitals are making record profits, over the last year UC executives have received record pay increases and bonuses, and UC maintains $5.5 billion dollar reserve fund. UC executives are again acting with no accountability to its patients, its students, and the people of California who they are supposed to be serving. At today's meeting, UC Regents will be voting on whether to give President Mark Yudof emergency powers to slash budgets, programs, and staff. We need more accountability, not less! This is why AFSCME Local 3299 is supporting the campaign to hold UC Executives accountable to California, and why today they rallied at the Hillcrest medical Center. Tomorrow you can join them for another protest in front of the Gilman Parking Structure at UCSD. See you there!

YBR will lop a further 0.10 of a percentage point from the discount to its standard variable rate for the Empower mortgage financed by
"There is one simple reason for it," Mr Bouris said. "I want to cut deeper into the banks' market share. There is a lot of talk now about the cost of funds being reduced. There is not enough competition out there and the big four banks are hanging on to the margin to put to their bottom line. It's why they're going to come out with $27 billion in profit between the four of them."
YBR, backed by Macquarie, will offer the low rate to people refinancing from other banks and new borrowers.
Some established players in the industry have scoffed at YBR trumpeting its home-loan credentials, pointing out it has a tiny market share in writing loans in the $1.3 trillion market.
"Correct. I don't have a big stock of mortgages," Mr Bouris said. "But what that allows us to do is to take a bigger share of the flow over time."He said as a new entrant, the YBR-Macquarie venture was not constrained by a legacy book funded by more expensive funding sourced three- to-five years ago. "It's about the flow of new business and my game is to take it away from them," Mr Bouris said.
The broker is writing an estimated $140 million in home loans a month; about 2 per cent of flows, but is targeting closer to the $1 billion a month Mr Bouris's old firm Wizard Home Loans used to write.
As part of the new offer, YBR will not charge an application fee and will make the discount available to every new customer. Mr Bouris said most substantial discounts were usually only for mortgages of $500,000 or more.
"We will give the same discount to you no matter how much you borrow," Mr Bouris said.
After the end of the first year special, a lifetime discount of between 0.86 per cent and 0.91 per cent will apply, depending on the loan to valuation ratio.

A MTA is a type of enforceable agreement (contract) used when two or more parties are shipping, sharing, loaning, or sometimes selling physical research materials. The MTA will define ownership of the material and its associated intellectual property rights. Each party's rights and responsibilities with regard to the material will be defined.
Yes. Texas State University uses two types of MTA.
The Other than Biological MTA should be used for the transfer of equipment, research tools, proprietary procedures or know-how. Any transferred material that is not biological in nature would fall under this type of MTA.
The Uniform Biological Material Transfer Agreement (UBMTA) should be used when the transferred material is biological in nature, such as fish stock, cell lines, DNA samples, etc.
A MTA is required whenever material is being transferred between two or more parties. However, there are some exceptions.The office of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP) will review the circumstances and make a determination. Many institutions also have a MTA policy and may require their own documentation. Even hand-deliveries and pick ups require an agreement.
The process should begin at least 30 days prior to shipment to allow time for review and negotiation. This includes material being brought onto campus. If the provider does not have a MTA procedure in place, the Contract and IP specialist in the Technology Transfer and Contracts (TTC) will provide a template.
Fill in the appropriate questionnaire and contact the ORSP.
Examples of Materials
We at Texas State University are committed to excellence in undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education, through the preservation and transmission of knowledge, as well as the generation of knowledge through research, scholarship, and creative expression. The following procedure contributes to the implementation of this policy.
The transfer of materials between scientists is an important part of academic and scientific cooperation. To ensure that the appropriate measures are taken to protect the intellectual property of the University and its faculty, maintain confidentiality where appropriate, and to minimize risk to the University and its faculty and staff, it is necessary to implement this policy.
Faculty or departmental administrators do not have the authority to accept these agreements on behalf of the University. Accepting such agreements without an authorized University signature may result in the assumption of unnecessary personal liability.
*Some transfers may fall under Export Control Regulations. Please refer to the Interim Policy dated 06/20/06.
Scientists may wish to exchange a variety of materials between labs and other entities including but not limited to:
The purpose of these exchanges may be to further a line of research questioning, enhance scientific collaboration, confirm research findings or to provide materials for testing and commercialization.
Texas State University faculty and staff may engage in such transfers with other public and private universities, non-profit organizations and commercial entities.
In engaging in such transfers, it is important to ensure the following:
The consistent use of a standardized Materials Transfer Agreement by university faculty and staff ensures the following:
A Materials Transfer Agreement or MTA is an agreement between two entities exchanging tangible research materials. It is the responsibility of Pre and Post Award Support Services to review, negotiate, and execute all such agreements. Depending upon the material being transferred or received, other university compliance personnel may be involved with the review process including but not limited to:
MTAs are needed for both incoming and outgoing materials. The agreements are put in place to ensure the protection of the university's and its faculty's interests.
Under no circumstances should materials be transferred prior to the full execution of a MTA. Faculty and staff should contact ORSP as far in advance as possible to any materials being transmitted to another entity. ORSP will provide the necessary agreements and transmission forms and obtain needed signatures both from Texas State University and from the outside entity. The Compliance Specialist will evaluate the items being transferred for any other needed actions. Agreements and forms will vary by material being transferred. Only the Associate Vice President for Research and Sponsored Programs and the Director of Pre and Post Award Support Services have the authority to sign outgoing MTAs.
In some cases a contract between the University and the receiving entity may cover the transfer of materials. In this case, a separate MTA will not be required. All such contracts must be reviewed and signed per UPPS 03.04.02 and 03.04.04 covering contracts.
Outside entities may have their own MTAs. All such documents need to be forwarded to the ORSP for review and university-authorized signature. If the MTA contains clauses that conflict with existing agreements or conflict with university and/or state and federal policy, ORSP will negotiate with the outside entity to resolve the situation. Upon successful negotiation, the document will be signed and returned to the donor. If the transferring entity does not have a standard MTA, ORSP will provide the donor with our template and obtain the necessary signatures. The receiving party should contact ORSP before requesting materials. Materials should not be accepted without an agreement.
Should negotiations fail; the material will not be accepted. If material has been shipped it will be returned to the Donor.
A MTA will not be required for standard purchase orders or catalogue supply orders unless:
In some cases a contract between the University and the transferring entity may cover the transfer of materials. In this case, a separate MTA will not be required. All such contracts must be reviewed and signed per UPPS 03.04.02 and 03.04.04 covering contracts.

My only concern is size&profile. I am 36years old, breastfed 2 kids, lost volume on my breasts. Have some sagging but my nipple is still over crease. I weigh 130pounds and am very fit and toned. I am 5"4" and my breast size is a 34 Bcup. When I was breast-feeding I was a 34 Dcup. Before my kids I was a 34C cup. I want to be a D cup.
Under Muscle Gel Implants. High or Moderate Profile? 400cc or 450cc?

How to pick shape and size of breast implants.
1) This is the most common type of question on RealSelf.
2) It is the surgeon's job to pick the right breast implants, not the patient's. Implant selection is really pretty technical.
3) Make sure your surgeon REALLY understands the look you want. Mentioning a cup size is not enough. Show your surgeon pictures of breasts you like.
4) Then your surgeon has to tell you if your chosen look is realistic for your anatomy. The most common mistake is to go too big.
5) I recommend that the surgeon NOT make a final implant choice in advance, because this is just an educated guess.
6) The surgeon should have a large inventory of different size and shape implants available in the operating room.
7) Then the surgeon can put sterile disposable implant SIZERS in your breasts during surgery, to see what a particular implant really looks like inside you. This is how to make the best choice. A sizer costs only $45, and takes all the guess work out.
8) Finally, the sizer is discarded, and the correct breast implants (based on what you want and on your anatomy) are opened from the operating roon inventory, and put in your breasts to complete the operation
Implant size
I think it will take 450cc minimum to get you to a D cup. Profile depends on how wide your breast is. Once you decide on volume, you want the widest implant that will be totally covered by your natural breast. Your surgeon should be able to tell you which profile is best.
Some patients do not understand profiles, and mistakenly believe a high profile will give more fullness superiorly. Not true. A high profile has a smaller diameter for the same volume than a moderate profile does. If you have a wide base to your breast, you may need a moderate profile. If your breast is not as wide, then moderate plus or high profile may be needed.
Again, your surgeon should help you with this.
Good luck.
Re: Under Muscle Gel Implants. High or Moderate Profile? 400cc or 450cc?
Since you have a small amount of glandular ptosis, I'd first recommend a dual plane augmentation to fill out the inferior pole and rotate the nipple areola slightly upwards. That way, you're not just filling, but lifting a little as well.
In terms of your desire to have D cup breasts, I'd bring both sizes into the operating room and see what looks best. Based on your photo and body measurements, 450cc in a moderate plus profile seems reasonably appropriate.
I hope this helps - good luck with whatever decision you make!

Breast Implant Sizing
Hi Ms. Bolton-
Great question...and one I see quite often here on RealSelf. Unfortunately, as I have said before, sizing of breast implants are an individualized decision. A decision that can only be reached by a team of EXPERTS : You and your Board Certified Surgeon. You, because you know your body, your wants and desires (cup size, etc) and your surgeon, because he or she will get to know you, your wants and desires as well as your anatomy and they will know the implants styles and technical specifics. For a surgeon to take you out of the equation and say they will give you the result they know will make you happiest is short-sighted.
I have recently implemented new 3 Dimensional technology (that I am sure other surgeons will have a negative opinion on because it is new and they don't have it) for a couple of reasons. First, so that each individual patient has the ability to see what their post-augmentation results MAY look like (they can switch between sizes....you can see the small difference between a 400 and a 450cc implant as well as what effects different projections (High Profile, Moderate Profile Plus and Moderate Profile) will have on your final results. And Second, it has allowed me added time to more efficiently talk to patients about sizing....the 4th Dimension, time! Patients have really been excited about the exercise of seeing their results before surgery and I like spending the time with them.
I hope this helps...my recommendation would be based on your anatomy and my measurements of your breast/chest...but I think you would be very happy with Moderate Profile PLUS 450cc implants; they will fill out the skin envelope and volumetric needs, enhance the upper and lower breast poles and may even elevate your NAC (nipple areolar complex) a touch.
I hope this helps!
Good luck....
Dr. C
Match the implant shape to your chest
with the advent of different profiles of implants patients and their doctors can better match the implant to the patient's anatomy and desires. There are no hard and fast rules. In general the larger the implant the greater the diameter. The ultimate diameter should fit the patients chest wall and existing breast mound. This decision is best made between you and your surgeon.
Size, profile, and implant volume
In order to increase two cup sizes, you will need a high profile implant and a silicone gel-filled implant is probably a good choice because of the lack of muscle coverage over the lateral side and underside of a breast that is borderline sagging. The implant will not lift the breast but it will look lifted because it is filled out, particularly the lower pole of the breast. However, with a relatively sagging and flat breast it will become very projected with a high profile implant and this doesn't look as natural as it looked in the past even though the volume is increased. A better choice might be a middle profile implant which would increase the breast size by 1 1/2 cups to a C/D size.
The volume of the implant is determined by measuring the width of your breast in the upright position with arms down and subtracting 3/4 to 1 cm. This would be the diameter of the implant and would be looked up under high profile gel-filled implants (Mentor or Allergan). Whatever volume this is will fit, look good, and increase your size by about 2 cup sizes.
Not possible to answer your question responsibly
Hi there-
While I would love to be able to give you the confidence you would gain from having surgeons in this community recommend an implant for you, it is VERY important to your future happiness that you understand that without a formal consultation and examination, it is simply not responsible for me to try.
The appropriate choice of an implant for any individual patient depends on not only her goals and her history (children, breast feeding, etc.), but also (and most importantly) on measurements of skin quality, quantity, and chest/breast dimensions.
My personal belief is that because this decision is so complex, and because fundamentally what you are hoping to achieve is a particular appearance (and not a particular implant), it is a mistake to commit to an implant before surgery.
Visit with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a consultation- discuss your goals with them, and then trust them to guide you in the process.

Breast implant sizing
The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size of implant and resulting cup size. This may have to do with several factors including: the amount of breast volume the patient starts with, the shape of the patient's chest wall (concave or convex), the type and model of breast implant selected (saiine/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree of filling of the cup with breast tissue, and the subjective differences in patients perceptions of cup size.
Much of the final "look" achieved after breast augmentation surgery depends on several factors: 1. The initial shape, size (volume of breast tissue), symmetry of the patient's breasts. In general, the better the preoperative breast appearance the more likely the breast augmentation "look" will be optimal. 2. The experience/skill level of the surgeon is important in determining the final outcome. For example, the accurate and gentle dissection of the breast implant pockets are critical in producing long-term well-placed breast implants. I personally think that these 2 factors are more important than any others, including type (saline or silicone) or model (low/moderate/high profile) of implant. 3. The type of implant used may determine the final outcome, especially if the patient does not have significant covering breast or adipose tissue. For example, some surgeons feel that silicone implants have a more natural look and feel than saline implants because silicone gel has a texture that is similar to breast tissue. Each patient differs in the amount of breast tissue that they have. If a patient has enough breast tissue to cover the implant, the final result will be similar when comparing saline implants versus silicone gel implants. If a patient has very low body fat and/or very little breast tissue, the silicone gel implants may provide a more "natural" result. On the other hand, saline implants have some advantages over silicone implants. Silicone implant ruptures are harder to detect. When saline implants rupture, they deflate and the results are seen almost immediately. When silicone implants rupture, the breast often looks and feels the same because the silicone gel may leak into surrounding areas of the breast without a visible difference. Patients may need an MRI to diagnose a silicone gel rupture. Saline implants are also less expensive than the silicone gel implants. Other differences involve how the breast implants are filled. Saline implants are filled after they're implanted, so saline implants require a smaller incision than prefilled silicone breast implants. On May 10, 2000, the FDA granted approval of saline-filled breast implants manufactured by Mentor Corporation and McGhan Medical. To date, all other manufacturers' saline-filled breast implants are considered investigational. As of 2006, the FDA has approved the use of silicone gel implants manufactured by the Mentor Corporation and Allergan (formerly McGhan) for breast augmentation surgery for patients over the age of 22. 4. The size and model of breast implant used may make a significant difference in the final outcome. Therefore, it is very important to communicate your size goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of "goal" pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as "natural" or "C cup" or "fake looking" or "top heavy" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. I use intraoperative sizers and place the patient in the upright position to evaluate breast size. Use of these sizers also allow me to select the breast implant profile (low, moderate, moderate plus, high-profile) that would most likely achieve the patient's goals. The patient's goal pictures are hanging on the wall, and allow for direct comparison. I have found that this system is very helpful in improving the chances of achieving the patient's goals as consistently as possible. By the way, the most common regret after this operation, is "I wish I was bigger". I hope this helps.

Moderate plus profile versus high profile implants
It is difficult to give a definitive answer from the information you have provided. I personally prefer the look of the Moderate Plus profile implants placed submuscular. They have a larger base diameter than the high profile and give fullness throughout the entire breast. I would recommend consulting with a Board Certified plastic surgeon in order to chose a size. You should be able to try on the various sizes to ensure you are happy with the look.
Kindest regards,
Neil J. Zemmel
Need to have a plastic surgeon help you to decide
Without seeing you in person, it would be impossible from just looking at your pictures whether I would recommend submuscular or subglandular, high profile or low profile, and whether you should go with 400 or 450 cc. They might all work fine, or one method might be preferred over another. I recommend that you make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon in your neighborhood and make the decisions based on his/her recommendations.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by LittleD, Jan 10, 2013.
nicely written piece right there, my friend. Thank you for taking the time to share. Nicely done.
Speaking of running game/ O-line etc...
Just shows what an Aaron Rodgers really is....Green Bay ranked in the 20s for running the ball and he was the most sacked QB in the league.....yet they are playing this weekend.
Anyway. Good writing!
whats whisenhunt up to?
If Norv Turner is hired against Jason Garrett's wishes, you know what this means. Garrett becomes like Wade Phillips with his successor (Norv) in the wings.
That means Norv may actually become ... the Dallas Cowboys head coach in the near future. uke:
Nothing. Cleveland pretty much screwed him over on plane tickets. Twice.
It will be interesting if the Browns hire Norv. That would mean Weder was guessing
I'd take mularkey at oc. Did great with Atlanta
He should, but a puppet is exactly what Jerry wants in the first place.
The word out of here in Cleveland is that Norv and his son are going to Cleveland most likely.
Werder stays losing.
Seeing Chud was an assistant head coach to Norv in San Diego, he'll return the favor in Cleveland. It's all but a done deal.
Whatever chance we had at Norv coming here went out the window with this hire.
Not a bad option at all. Even Whisenhunt would be a decent option.
So this franchise is now losing out on coaches that decide they'd rather be in Cleveland? I don't care about the ties to the new head coach, there once was a time when something like this simply would not happen.
Jerry: Deal with it.

More Than Three Out of Four Americans Believe They Will See a Female President in Their Lifetime
Blair Center-Clinton School Poll explores attitudes about women
More than 75 percent of Americans believe they will see a female president in their lifetime, according to a comprehensive national survey conducted by two entities of the University of Arkansas System. The poll found that 77 percent of men and 80 percent of women believe they will see a woman elected president during their life.
These results and other questions related to attitudes toward women in politics and the workplace were released today from a nonpartisan national poll conducted by the Diane D. Blair Center of Southern Politics and Society in Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service in Little Rock.
Blair Center scholars Todd Shields, Angie Maxwell, Pearl Ford Dowe and Rafael Jimeno presented findings from the poll Wednesday, Feb. 6, at a Clinton School panel discussion titled "The Year of the Woman." The topics covered during the panel discussion are included in a report titled "Is There a War on Women? Attitudes about Women in the Workplace and in Politics."
"This report is just one of several that will be released over the course of the next year," said Shields, director of the Blair Center and dean of the Graduate School and International Education at the University of Arkansas. "The poll covered numerous topics including immigration, racial attitudes, regional trends and community philanthropy, and we are looking forward to studying the results in further detail."
While the Blair Center-Clinton School Poll is national in scope, it uniquely includes representative samples of African Americans and Latinos in the South as compared to the rest of the country, groups that are often omitted in most national surveys.
"We see a more complete picture when the results are analyzed by race," said Jimeno, the Diane D. Blair endowed professor in Latino studies. "Among Caucasian respondents 76 percent believed they would see a female elected president, while 80 percent of Latino respondents and 83 percent of African American respondents reported the same belief."
Poll questions released Wednesday also covered the 2012 presidential election results, attitudes toward women in the workplace and hypothetical 2016 presidential election match-ups involving the possible candidacy of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
The poll results showed Clinton with leads over former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (61 percent to 32 percent), Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (61 percent to 30 percent) and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (58 percent to 34 percent).
"We have known about the gender gap for many election cycles even though it is substantially smaller in the South," said Maxwell, the Diane D. Blair endowed professor in Southern studies. "The poll found that 60 percent of non-southern women and 45 percent of non- southern men reported voting for President Barack Obama. This gender gap was nearly non-existent in the South where 49.6 percent of women and 48.3 percent of men reported voting for Obama. But what is most interesting about the 2016 pairings is that the gap increases significantly among white southerners when Secretary Clinton is paired with the leading potential Republican candidates."
The poll also asked questions from the Modern Sexism Scale, which measures attitudes towards the changes in traditional gender roles that have occurred during the past several decades. The results of these questions showed that 24.3 percent of men have "extremely negative" attitudes toward having women in the work place.
When broken down regionally, the results showed attitudes toward women in the workplace were slightly better in the non-south than in the South. Southern men (25.5 percent) and women (16.9 percent) showed more negative attitudes toward having women in the workplace than non-southern men (23.8 percent) and women (12.5 percent).
The Blair Center-Clinton School Poll, completed in mid-December, surveyed more than 3,600 people regarding issues related to politics, giving, regional identification, religion, racial discrimination, ideology and partisanship. The poll has a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points. This is the Blair Center's second election year to administer the national poll and the first time it was conducted in partnership with the Clinton School.
The poll was administered by GfK, formerly Knowledge Networks, the leader in web-based survey research. GfK's proprietary database features a representative sample of Americans, including representation of the roughly 30 percent of U.S. households that do not have Internet access. In addition, the database covers the growing number of cell phone-only households, recently estimated at 23 percent of all households, through address-based sampling. The survey was conducted in both English and Spanish.

Hacked FTP passwords?

Hacked FTP passwords?
Anyone who uses the same username/password combination for their accounts as they do for FTP (passed insecurely in plain text) is really, really stupid. Accounts have not been compromised! It is an FTP issue.
DreamHost has (to my knowledge) been investigating this problem since May 24th at the latest, and they have been able to trace activity by looking at their FTP traffic logs. Presumably, this is how they have been able to determine which FTP username/password combos were compromised.
No harm has been done, except to DreamHost's reputation. The exploitation, whatever it was, resulted in some very minor spamming. If nothing else, it has highlighted the importance of regularly changing passwords. Personally, I have begun using SFTP as part of my own efforts to improve security.

Hacked FTP passwords?
That may be the case - but are you going to tell me none of those 3,500 accounts used the same passwords or that Dreamhost has no responsibility to anyone stupid or lazy enough to use the same password?
It appears I wasn't effected by this attack, but I still felt it necessary to change my passwords. I think all other dreamhost customers would be wise to do the same. If Dreamhost doesn't know how the accounts were compromised, how can they say they know exactly WHICH accounts were? Perhaps the attacker is sitting on another batch of 3,500 accounts.
As a side note, can anyone think of any reason why Dreamhost wouldn't offer me the ability to shutoff FTP and Telnet access to my account? I always use SFTP/SSH to connect and do not want these insecure methods available. I would further appreciate the option of locking down access to my SSH account via an RSA key.

I have never seen a single host as open about things as Dreamhost. But I have seen hosts that announce nothing, hide everything and when they're not doing that, they can be found policing & censoring their forums.
Personally, I'm happy to see they sent the info straight to the affected customers, rather than tell the rest of the world first and possibly cause more problems for those that host here.
You just can't win. If they posted it there, then people would have been complaining that they didn't keep it private to protect their customers and just contact them directly.
And if they did post it there, there would probably be geniuses in the comments section claiming they were hiding stuff by not posting the complete list of user names & passwords that were affected, so customers could conveniently stop by and check the list.

Checking back in and I see that scjessey has written again on this thread and started another(or two) but no explicit answer for me?
So, for those of you monitoring this thread and seeking advice, let me suggest that the implied answer here is to indeed change your passwords. Whether you got an email notice from DH or not. And as someone/somewheres pointed out, there's a very good argument for changing your mysql passwords too. In other words, your account may have been compromised WITHOUT file modification but any clear text password info may have been harvested(like in many config files with DB connect info).
As so many are taking the time to point out(and contributing nothing in my opinion since this shows up in every DH oops thread), cheap hosting has consequences.
Unless DH or someone with solid info comes forward, it seems changing all passwords(again, including mysql, svn, etc..) would be wise... if a little painful.
Post: #15
Hacked FTP passwords?
I think it is up on the status board now.
Not explicitly stated as being related, but an upgrade without prior notice?
I can't blame DH for not putting out a lot of info.
Should they have put out on the panel:
Severity: Low
Our site is not secure...
Update: We now know it is related to WebFTP. We are evaluating the exact problem and will post more info as it becomes available.
Update2: We have identified a fix and are scheduling an upgrade for 2 AM Saturday night.
On a serious note, as soon as the fix is in, I am changing all of my passwords. All should consider doing the same, even if they are already changed.
And if it is related, I would appreciate DH letting us all know when the vulnerability is (believed) closed.

Good Points, jt! As for your request:
Quote:Now, rlparker, you tell us there have been "several" threads on these forums around this topic? I don't doubt you here, but could you be so kind as to point them out?Well, "several" may have been the wrong word to use; it certainly *seemed* like several to me, with as many posts as there were in the following two threads:
All my sites are hacked
Files Appended
There was another , but I dont think it was related to this. I'm probably also guilty of thinking it was discussed more here as a result of me seeing so much of it on the IRC channel
I apologize if "several" was misleading; my point was that DH had not made an effort to keep anything *secret* about it.

It's always humorous to me to see responses to people who criticize Dreamhost. Me pointing out that DH should post a notice on the Status blog because it's wise for ALL users to change their passwords was not a direct attack on Dreamhost. I was not telling everyone to go get a new host. I was simply pointing out what I believed to be in error in their handling of this incident.
Yet all I get is "only stupid people do x." "You should be doing that on a regular basis anyway", etc. I wasn't aware this was a fan forum...

Does that sentence sound as stupid when the other side uses it? Big shocker that someone might disagree with you on a forum full of people that pay to be here.
And if you paid attention, you'd probably notice that if someone posted that Dreamhost is 100% perfect, they'd get called out for it as well.
The best thing they could have done is directly notify the people that were affected before announcing anything.
What part of that is so hard to understand?
Quote:Yet all I get is "only stupid people do x." "You should be doing that on a regular basis anyway", etc. I wasn't aware this was a fan forum...Yeah, it's a fan site. Any site that promotes common sense is clearly a fan site.
You SHOULD be changing your passwords on a regular basis anyway, regardless of whether or not there's a problem. You SHOULDN'T use the same PW for everything. These very simple facts existed long before Dreamhost.

As I and other suspected, Dreamhost has failed to notify at least 1 customer that their account was compromised. So maybe you guys can now conceed that a status message/email to all customers asking them to change their passwords is in order?

Lebanon's ministers on Tuesday agreed on "putting an end to heated debate through media, preserving state institutions, resorting to legitimacy and relying on dialogue to solve disputes," Information Minister Tareq Mitri said after the cabinet session held amid high tensions over the issue of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon. According to Naharnet, Mitri quoted the Lebanese President Michel Suleiman as saying that "what happened at the airport gave the impression that the country is before imminent dangers."
"President Suleiman stressed that everyone, and the officials themselves, would suffer alike from any losses," Mitri added.
According to him, Prime Minister Saad Hariri "stressed commitment to all the articles of the ministerial Policy Statement, vowing not to back down on any of them."

This week MTV Iggy picks five acts to watch, from South Korea's 2NE1 to Ghanaian rapper Bryte to Paris-based producer Myth Syzer
For this week's bout of exciting new music we turned to the team behind MTV Iggy, who used their distinct global focus to highlight five international acts making noise around the world. See their picks below, and follow Iggy on Twitter for even more indie gems.
Keep Shelly In Athens: Oostende
A dreamy mix of Balearic beats, Scandinavian pop, Greek nonchalance and a touch of Sade make the aptly named duo Keep Shelly in Athens a melodic wonder. "Oostende" brings their yearning to life in a video teeming with shooting stars and missed connections, compounded by soft vocals and a strong emotional pull. Originally signed to Gorilla vs Bear's Forest Family Records and now on Cascine, the band recently released their full length album, At Home. Have a listen for a deeper look at these musical wanderlusts.
2NE1: Missing You
2NE1 made waves throughout South Korea by differing themselves from their fellow cookie-cutter all-girl pop groups, who seemed to take stage as eye candy rather than as performers. Influenced by hip-hop, R&B and a good dose of electronic dance, 2NE1 is known for their empowering lyrics and powerful vocals, but aren't afraid to indulge in bold thematic music videos. Their winter single "Missing You" takes a breather from their usual fierce approach—in their take on the standard ballad, the juxtaposition between the moods of the verses and the chorus keeps you hooked. Stay tuned for their 2014 world tour and new album, both titled AON: All or Nothing.
Bloods: No Fun
Aussie three-piece garage outfit Bloods comes in swinging on their latest single "No Fun." With an upbeat and in-your-face attitude, the band evokes a carefree, "windows down in the summertime" feeling while keeping things just edgy enough—calling to mind the '80s sound of Joan Jett. Already dubbed a band to watch, Bloods will hopefully stay true to their DIY sound even as their fan base grows.
Myth Syzer: Clean Shoes (feat. Prince Waly)
Paris-based producer Myth Syzer has created beats for his fellow French artists Joke and Yann Ichon as well as Harlem-based rapper Perrion. If his remix of Wiz Khalifa's "Work" didn't get your head bobbing, "Clean Shoes," featuring epic rhymes from Prince Waly, will. The music video transports you back to another decade but the rap is as fresh as his Nike Cortez "sneakers are clean."
Bryte: Nadia Number
If winning a national talent hunt in Ghana wasn't enough, Accra-based rapper Bryte was also a promising marketing student at one of the country's most prestigious universities before his music career took off. His latest video for "Nadia Number" sees Bryte (né Edem Dziku Bright) cruising through his bustling city while rapping at Busta Rhymes speed—with the flow to match. Bryte's forward-thinking style and lyrical abilities make him an MC to look out for in Africa and abroad.
ListenUp; is a Cool Hunting series published every Sunday that takes a deeper look at the music we tweeted about that week. Often we'll include a musician or notable fan's personal favorite in a song or album dubbed PrivateJam.

The growing feeling that Masahiro Tanaka could actually return to the New York Yankees and pitch again in the 2014 season is starting to get bigger with each step that the 25-year-old takes.
Tanaka will take his next step towards making such a return on Saturday when he will face live hitters for the first time since injuring his elbow back in July, as he will throw a round of batting practice, which Yankees manager Joe Girardi announced on Thursday before their series finale against the Houston Astros.
Tanaka threw a bullpen session of 35 pitches on Wednesday, which featured breaking balls and splitters; which is his signature strikeout pitch this season, another great sign that Tanaka could be taking the proper steps needed to make a return in September.
Before getting hurt, Tanaka went 12-4 with a 2.51 ERA and a 135/19 K/BB rate in 18 starts and 129 1/3 innings. Tanaka's last appearance was back in July against the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field where the Indians roughed him up for five runs; after the start it was determined that Tanaka had the small tear in his PCL in the right elbow, but Tommy John Surgery wasn't necessary after visiting four seperate doctors.
With CC Sabathia and Ivan Nova both out for the season, Tanaka's return would be huge to the moral of the Yankees, but with the Yankees slowly fading in the playoff race, Tanaka's return next month if able to pitch again this season, could be too little, too late.

Well Jerry, I watched the program from beginning to end and it seemed very clear to me that the only thing that the test said to investigators was that the perpetrator's DNA was that of person 85% African and 15% Native American - and therefore the police sould be looking for an individual with a Black phenotype, not White. This put a whole new spin on the investigation and likely resulted in the saving of lives since until then the police, based on the report of an FBI Behavioral Profiler, were going on wild goose chases, up blind alleys, and ignoring important information from witnesses who insisted that they saw an African male watching the house of the first known victim.

The Ethiopian highlands: fertile ground for seed potato production?
The Ethiopian highlands are densely populated and home to millions of smallholder farmers. The area is blessed with cool temperatures and high rainfall, which should make it fertile ground for the production of disease-free seed potatoes. However, Abdulwahab Abdurahman reports that this may not be as easy as previously thought.

Scorsese May Get Chilly For The Snowman
He's circling a msytery novel adaptation
No, Martin Scorsese hasn't decided to switch to only making kids' films in the wake of Hugo: The Snowman he's now proposing to work on is not the Raymond Briggs classic that has been an animated Christmas telly staple for years. It's actually a mystery crime novel written by Norwegian Jo Nesbo.
Working Title has the rights to the book, which finds detective Harry Hole investigating a missing persons case in Oslo. When the female victim's pink scarf is found wrapped around a strange snowman, Hole investigates further and finds evidence that it could be the work of a serial killer.
Matthew Michael Carnahan, who wrote the scripts for State Of Play and the upcoming World War Z, is in talks to tackle the adaptation of the tome, which is actually the seventh in Nesbo's series about Hole.
Right now, there's no formal deal on the table for Scorsese, but Variety reports he's been interested in the title for a while now. And you can see why: frosty Euro-thrillers are white-hot right at the moment, between Wallander, The Killing and David Fincher's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, among others. Another adaptation of a Nesbo book, Headhunters, screened at the BFI London Film Festival just days ago. Heck, fashion store H&M has even launched a Girl With The Dragon Tattoo-inspired clothing range, which both proves its cutural impact and profoundly misunderstands Liz Salander's ethos.
Chances are if Scorsese does sign on, The Snowman will have to go into Scorsese's potential projects hopper alongside the likes of Silence (which he's gearing up to make next), The Irishman and his long- bubbling Sinatra biopic.
Hugo, meanwhile, will hit UK cinemas on December 2.

Morningstar Equities Research
Morningstar Equities Research
Qube Holdings Limited QUB| Government Recognises Superior Moorebank Proposal, with Direct Negotiations to Begin with Qube JV
Morningstar Recommendation:
Scott Carroll, Morningstar Analyst – 02 9276 4423
The federal-government-owned Moorebank Intermodal Company, or MIC, has informed the joint venture of Qube Holdings and Aurizon holdings, known as SIMTA, that it has been selected to enter direct negotiations about the development and operation of an intermodal terminal at Moorebank in Sydney. This is a positive outcome for Qube, albeit not unexpected, given the compelling proposal put forward by SIMTA to develop an integrated terminal precinct that utilised both its industrial site and that of MIC, which lies adjacent. The MIC press release stated that the SIMTA proposal was "so strong in comparison to other respondents that it warrants a period of direct negotiation". Qube holds a 67% stake in SIMTA.
No change to our view, earnings forecasts or AUD 2.20 fair value estimate for Qube. Earlier this year, we raised our moat-rating for Qube to narrow, from no-moat, on the basis that we felt SIMTA was the logical (and most likely) private sector operator to play a role in developing an intermodal terminal at Moorebank. Our thesis is now a step closer to playing out, albeit there remains significant uncertainty around the timing, funding arrangements and operational and ownership structure for the terminal. This makes it difficult to estimate the potential value upside that Qube could realise through: i) its investment in SIMTA; and ii) volume growth in its logistics business. Our fair value uncertainty rating for Qube is unchanged at medium.
Integrating the SIMTA site as part of an intermodal precinct, with co-located warehousing and an empty container park, could deliver a competitive advantage for Qube's logistics business even if the terminal is an open-access multi-user facility.
Suncorp Group Limited SUN| Suncorp Surprises with Significant Life Insurance Write-Down
Recommendation: Hold
David Ellis, Morningstar Analyst - 02 9276 4582
Suncorp Group surprised with a AUD 500 million after tax non-cash write-down of intangible assets in its life insurance business, as the insurer belatedly recognises worse-than-expected future claims and lapse assumptions. The revised assumptions reduce the carrying value of intangible assets and goodwill, and will reduce reported profit for fiscal 2014. Cash profit and dividend are unaffected, and the write down will have an immaterial impact on Suncorp's already significant capital surplus. Underlying profit after tax for fiscal 2014 for Life is now guided between AUD 75 and AUD 85 million, below our AUD 98 million forecast. Despite the disappointment, Life is only a small contributor to group cash earnings, likely around 5% for fiscal 2014.
We remain upbeat on the long-term earnings outlook, with management taking a conservative view on provisioning in both Life and Banking. Despite a chequered track record, the no-moat, diversified financial services group is well-placed to generate solid shareholder returns due to strong market positions, much improved productivity, a growing capital surplus and measured business growth. Minor adjustments are made to fiscal 2014 cash earnings forecasts due to higher bad debts and net interest margins in Banking and a lower underlying profit in Life. General Insurance profits are unchanged. Fair value is unchanged at AUD 14.00 per share and at current prices the stock is modestly undervalued trading 5% below valuation. Reconfirmation of the 60-80% dividend payout of cash earnings and a commitment to return surplus capital to shareholders bodes well for the likely hood of a special dividend with the release of full year results on 13 August 2014. We do not include a special dividend in our fiscal 2014 forecast, but a AUD 20 cents per share special is likely due the strong capital position and positive outlook. The AUD 500 million write down sees our forecast reported profit decline to AUD 600 million for fiscal 2014.
NRW Holdings Limited NWH| Few New Contracts As Tough Conditions Continue for NRW Holdings
Morningstar Recommendation:
Ross MacMillan, Morningstar Analyst - 02 9276 4450
Since announcing weak first-half fiscal 2014 results in February, NRW Holdings has been awarded just one major contract during second half 2014, reflecting the steady decline in domestic mining and energy infrastructure project work available. In April, NRW Holdings was awarded a AUD 200 million 12-month contract for concreting, piping and detailed civil works on the high-profile AUD 10 billion Roy Hill iron ore project, but has won little else in the past three months. NRW Holdings started second-half fiscal 2014 with AUD 1.3 billion of work-in-hand but is likely to end fiscal 2014 with just AUD 1 billion of secured contract work because of mining company cost containment, mining project deferments, resource project completions and increased competition.
NRW Holdings has very high exposure to iron ore mining and infrastructure projects in the Pilbara, West Australia. We are concerned the recent decline in the iron ore price to USD 98 per dry metric tonne, from more than USD 125, may result in a further round of cuts by the major mining companies to planned capital expenditure. We continue to carefully monitor the outlook for the company, but make no material change to our forecasts at this stage. Our fair value estimate of AUD 1.20 is also unchanged. NRW Holdings' shares are undervalued with the market anticipating further delays to large-scale mining projects.
Our no-moat and high uncertainty ratings remain unchanged. NRW Holdings is a specialist civil and mining service contractor, highly leveraged to the Western Australian iron ore mining sector and does not hold any particularly strong competitive advantage over its major competitors, resulting in low barriers to entry.
Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited FPH, FPH-NZ | Fisher & Paykel Healthcare On a Roll, Estimates and Fair Value Upgraded for this High-Quality Name
Recommendation: Hold
Nachiket Moghe, CFA, Morningstar Analyst - 64 9 915 6776
Fisher and Paykel Healthcare reported very strong results for fiscal 2014, in line with our projections. Underlying net profit after tax, or NPAT, increased 26% to NZD 97 million as both obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA, and respiratory and acute care, or RAC, delivered strong mid-teens constant-currency revenue growth. Furthermore, margins continue to improve, reflecting manufacturing efficiencies, new products and higher proportion of consumables being manufactured in Mexico. In constant-currency terms, excluding the impact of hedging and spot exchange rates, underlying earnings increased 44% versus the previous year and are up 150% compared with fiscal 2012.
We have revised our medium- to longer-term forecasts as we think the company will continue to achieve mid-teens constant-currency revenue growth during the next five years. We also believe that gross margin improvement will be ahead of the firm's 100 to 200 basis points target annually given management's track record of outperformance and margin upside from premium products and Mexico.
Consequently, our fair value lifts to NZD 4.90 per share from NZD 4.00 per share. Our fair value implies a compound annual growth rate, or CAGR, in pretax earnings of 31% (excluding foreign exchange impact) during the next five years and reported earnings CAGR of 17%. We have a great deal of confidence in the present management team in terms of introduction of new products, expanding the range of products in both hospital and home settings and extracting cost efficiencies. The shares are undervalued, trading at an 11% discount to fair value providing investors an opportunity to initiate positions in this high-quality company. We maintain our narrow moat rating, reflecting intangible assets and switching costs in respiratory and acute care products.

"No, do answer me: I will convey your interpretation to him". The Imaam refused. He insisted several times and the Imaam refused the same number of times, finally he said under Oath: "My Lord, By Allah, it is I who had seen the dream".
Incident - breaking an Egg, and it Eating only the

Then I looked at the hawk which symbolises a tyrant and despotic ruler. I found Hajjaaj fitting this description. This how I reached this interpretation." It is said that all the people sitting in his majlis were awe-struck when they heard this explanation of his.

Provo • Crunch-time college basketball games such as Saturday's expected sellout against nationally ranked Saint Mary's, and next week's test against perennial West Coast Conference power Gonzaga, are the reason Charles Abouo decided to attend BYU, the Cougars' senior said Friday while acknowledging that when he signed, beating the Gaels and Zags in January and February was far from his radar screen.
"You could say they are do-or-die games," Abouo said. "Just like when we played [San Diego State, UNLV and New Mexico in the Mountain West]. Full house, great opponents, a lot on the line. That's why we love them. That's what makes them so fun."
Looking for a little revenge, but mainly with their eyes on staying alive for an NCAA Tournament at-large berth and a fading shot at a WCC regular-season title, the Cougars play host to No. 21 Saint Mary's at 7 p.m. Saturday in the Marriott Center. The game will be televised nationally by ESPNU.
It's the middle game of a three-game stretch in which the Cougars (18-5) can probably earn, or fumble away, an NCAA Tournament berth. They edged past Virginia Tech 70-68 on Wednesday, and will entertain the WCC's other heavyweight, Gonzaga, on Thursday. Another home loss probably would put BYU in the NIT.
In the WCC, this is as good as it will get for newcomer BYU: games with conference title implications against the best the so-called "church league" has to offer. Having smoked BYU 98-82 in Moraga, Calif., on Dec. 29 and Gonzaga 83-62 on Jan. 12 at home, Saint Mary's sits atop the standings at 9-0 in league play, 20-2 overall, its best start in school history.
Lose this one to the Gaels, and the Cougars can probably forget about winning even a piece of the league title in their first WCC season.
"It is really emotional for us right now, because we want to go out and win these games," said senior Noah Hartsock. "We know what is on the line. It is not going to make or break the season, necessarily, but we need to go out and take care of business."
As of Friday afternoon, only a couple hundred tickets remained in the 22,700-seat Marriott Center, and the Gonzaga game was almost sold out as well. For the first time since before the 86-83 loss to Baylor on Dec. 17, hundreds of BYU students are camping out on the arena's outer concourse.
There will be 61/2 times more people at Saturday's game than the sellout crowd of 3,500 who attended last month's game at McKeon Pavilion.
"I think that if the players look forward to this challenge as much as the coaches look forward to this challenge, then you are going to have a great night," said BYU coach Dave Rose. "This is why [BYU players] come here. They come to play in front of a full house, and play a nationally ranked team."
Rose said Saint Mary's is worthy of its ranking, and called Gaels junior Matthew Dellavedova "a great floor leader" and "one of the best point guards in the country." Saint Mary's is tougher mentally, and tougher defensively, than most people think, he said.
"Our preparation will be a little bit different for this game just because we have played Saint Mary's before. Gonzaga, we will go back to the original model when we are playing a team for the first time," Rose said. "But as far as urgency is concerned, as far as our timetable is concerned, it will be pretty much the same."
Hartsock, Abouo, Brandon Davies and Brock Zylstra all said Friday that the Cougars have payback on their minds after seeing the Gaels keep the pedal to the metal all the way to the end of the disaster in late December, although BYU typically isn't a program that plays up the revenge angle.
"As a player you always remember those games," Abouo said. "They gave us a feeling we are not used to feeling. So it is still in our minds. … We will be ready for them."

Club of 16: If You Thought Getting Elected the First Time Was Hard...
14 of 16
Photo: National Archives
Ronald Reagan
"Four years ago, I spoke to you of a new beginning and we have accomplished that. But in another sense, our new beginning is a continuation of that beginning created two centuries ago when, for the first time in history, government, the people said, was not our master, it is our servant; its only power that which we the people allow it to have.
That system has never failed us, but, for a time, we failed the system. We asked things of government that government was not equipped to give. We yielded authority to the National Government that properly belonged to States or to local governments or to the people themselves.
We allowed taxes and inflation to rob us of our earnings and savings and watched the great industrial machine that had made us the most productive people on Earth slow down and the number of unemployed increase."
-From his second inaugural address, Ronald Reagan(1981-1989)

(168.24 kB) A.Bill Feist, a former wood-finishes researcher with the Forest Products Laboratory in Madison, Wis., and co-author of Finishes for Exterior Wood, responds: Mildew is a fungus found virtually everywhere; all it needs in order to flourish is oxygen, a food source, moisture, and temperatures between 40°F and 90°F.As a siding stain degrades — due to UV exposure and other environmental factors — the mildewcide it contains breaks down. And if the climate is right (warm and humid is ideal), chalked siding offers the perfect surface for mildew growth, with dirt that's accumulated over the years providing an additional food source.
