Mr. BIDEN. Madam President, I rise today to, quite frankly, compliment and add to the comments of my friend from West Virginia, Senator Byrdalthough I will not be as eloquentwho spoke today on Iraq and Korea and national security policy.
[Page S1124]
Before I do, there was an intervening comment exchange that was made on the floor earlier relating to the Michigan University cases.
I rise at this moment not to speak on whether or not the merits of the Michigan cases or the merits of the Michigan admissions policies are constitutional or unconstitutional. My instinct, in what little I know about it, is that it seems to be constitutional because there is a two-pronged equal protection test that has to be met; and that is, does the University's consideration of race as one of many factors in making admissions decisions constitute a compelling Government interest, and if it does, is it narrowly tailored. It appears, from what I have read in the press, that it is.
But I want to respond in the next 2 minutes to something my friend from Pennsylvania, my neighbor, Senator Santorum, said. He talked about this point system. I just want to remind everyone how the University of Michigan's policy works, which is like many other universities.
Under the University's undergraduate admissions process, every applicant can get up to 150 points in seeking admission. My assumption is, what the university does, it reviews all of the applications from applicants. No one gets 150 points, necessarily, but there are methods by which you can get up to 150 points.
Madam President, 110 of the 150 points are strictly related to academic criteria. They relate to GPA, the school you went to, the high school you went to, the curricula you took, your SAT scores, et cetera. Forty points are up for grabs, and they relate to nonacademic factors.
It is possible for a minority to get 20 points because of his minority status. People are pointing to that as saying that is unfair. Well, forget the constitutional detailed arguments for just a moment, because we will have plenty of time to make those on the floor. I want everyone to remind themselves what the rest of the University of Michigan policy allows.
If you are the son or daughter of alumni, you get 4 points. If you come from an underrepresented county within the State of Michigan, you can get up to 16 points. If you are a Michigan resident, you get 10 points. If you are from an underrepresented State, you get 2 points.
Let me translate this. And I do not mean this as a criticism of anybody else's State. The most competitive, the most difficult place to gain admission, the most difficult geographic States to gain admission to the most elite colleges are Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York. It is harder to get into competitive colleges if you're a resident of those States.
If you are from Mississippi or Alabama or Alaska and have the same scores as students from these northeast stateslike my son or daughter from Delaware, and my nephew from Pennsylvaniaand everything else is equal, the child from Mississippi or Alabama or Alaska will get into the school before the child from Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Maryland. That's becauserightly or wronglythe academic standards in these latter States are considered to be higher, and the competition is more intense.
So that is a literal fact of life. You say: OK, well, why in God's name would some child who does not have quite the same marks, or has the same marks, from the Midwest or Alaska or the Deep South have an advantage over a child from a New England State or a mid-Atlantic State? The reason is not to benefit the child. It is to benefit all the other students in the university. Because we have made a judgment, historically, in this Nation that it is better for my child to go to school with someone from Alaska, Mississippi, South Carolina, North Carolinaall across the Nationthan it is to go to school with everybody being from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. It has been a judgment educators have made. And the more elite the university, the more diversity, geographically, they seek.
It is the same way, I might add, that Rhodes Scholarships are, in fact, awarded. It is a heck of a lot harder to get a Rhodes Scholarship as a resident from New York State than it is from South Dakota. That is a facta fact. It is the competition pool. Why? More money per pupil tends to be spent in those richer States than in the States that are not as wealthy.
So what have we done? In everything we do about education, we seek, as a goal, not to reward the student, the diverse student who is coming in, but the goal is to reward the student body that is there to expose them to diversity.
It is good that my middle-Atlantic State daughter is in a school with people who talk to you like thisyou know what I meanlike y'all do in the South. It is a good thing. She should be exposed to that. It is good your southern son or daughter knows and has someone in class that talks like they are from Brooklyn. It is a good thing. Some may disagree, but that has been a national consensus.
Like geography, race is one of those factors colleges do and should consider. The only generic point I want to make to people, as a Senator who opposes quotasthat is not hyperbole; I oppose quotas; and I have a 30-year voting record about thatbut what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
All of you who tell me this is a level playing field, give me a break. If your daddy happened to go to that school, it is not wrong that you get a preference. But at least admit you are getting a preference. Stop this game, this silly little game.
If, in fact, you come from a State that is poor, stop pretending to me that it is a level playing field for a kid from Mississippi to get to Harvard versus a kid from Westchester County, NY to get to Harvard.
Give me a break. Let's stop being phony around here. I am not suggesting anybody is phony. I am just trying to inform those of you who have not had a chance to think of this how things actually work, how they actually work.
And, by the way, even on the academic side, you get somewhere between zero and 10 points based on the school you went to.
The school I went to is a Catholic prep school, with mostly middle class kids. My daughter, who is now a senior in college, graduated from that same school several years ago. If my memory serves me correctly, I believe that out of 114 kids in her graduating class, 69 passed five or more advanced placement tests, meaning that they tested out of their entire first semesters at the universities they attended69 out of 114 passed five or more AP tests.
According to what was then put out by the SAT outfit out of New Jersey, these kids represented the highest number in the region to test out of their first semester classes, and one of the highest in the countrythis little old Catholic school I went to. Guess what. It costs 14 grand a year to go to that school. Now, my daughter, I am confident, were she applying to Michigan, could have gotten up to 18 pointsup to 10 for the quality of the school and up to an additional 8 for the quality of her curriculum. And not because of anything she had, but because her old man was able to borrow the money with her mother to pay for her to go to that school and expose her to that. She may have gotten B's and my sons who went there or I who went there may have gotten B's, while a kid from a little one-room schoolhousesome States still have one-room schoolhouses, not manyfrom a small school in, say, North Dakota, where you have 20 kids in a senior class, that kid got a B, same grade point. My daughter may have gotten up to 18 points; the kid from North Dakota, with the same grade point average, may get no added points.
How does it really work? A Black kid in west Philadelphia, he might have gotten B's from a school we all acknowledge isn't that great a school. My daughter gets an 18-point bump on the academic side because she went to a school that costsguess what, when I went there, it cost $900 a year, now it is 15, 14 grand. How many middle-class Black kids out there are able to pay 14 grand, or Hispanic, Latino kids? So I just think we should be honest about this.
There is a legitimate constitutional argument to make and a test that Michigan is going to have to prove, and they should have to prove. There is a two-prong test here. When you are in a suspect categoryrace is a suspect categorythere are two tests: One, is there a compelling Government interest in using race as one of many factors to achieve a diverse class, and, two, is that use narrowly tailored. I think Michigan can prove that. I haven't done all the work. I teach constitutional law; I think I know a little about it. I can't say to the Chamber, I am guaranteeing I know the Michigan test is constitutional. They should have to prove it. No problem. I think they will. But let's not kid each other. OK? Level playing fields? I will conclude this part and get on to what I was going to speak about and just look at it.
[Page S1125]
Of the total 150 points an applicant to the University of Michigan can get, 40 points are for non-academic factors. You can get 20 points if you're an underrepresented minority, but also if you're a scholarship athlete, or if you're a kid who is socio-economically disadvantaged; you can get 10 points if you're a Michigan resident, 16 points if you live in 2 particular counties in Michigan; 4 points if your parents are alumni; 3 points for your required personal essay; 5 points for personal achievement; 5 points for leadership and service and, guess whatI say to my friend who went to a great, great university, the Presiding Officer, Duke University, one of the great universities in America; this will not surprise her, I suspectthe provost has 20 points of discretion. How about that one? The provost has 20 points of discretion.
Do you think the provost is more likely to receive a phone call from the chairman of the board of General Motors, or do you think the provost is likely to take a phone call from Rashid's mother in Detroit? My colleagues, as the kids used to say, let's get real. Let's acknowledge the truth of this. There is no absolutely totally blind test out there.
I am not criticizing. Universities have a reason for giving alumni preference. How do you think Harvard was built? There is a little red book on how Harvard's endowment was built. You build loyalty to a university. People then do things for the university. That is a good thing, not a bad thing. It is a good thing. There is geographic diversity. It is a good thing that there is discretion built in.
But if you are going to take this purest view that race can never be considered, that minority status can't be considered and you want to be fair, be fair. Cash in your senatorial credentials when you start writing recommendations. OK? Don't write a recommendation.
You want to be really fair? Be like every other person out there, do you know what I mean? Maybe it is because I come from a place called Claymont. I come from an Irish Catholic family. I am the first one in my family to go to collegeno Horatio Alger story.
I once got in an argument during the Thomas hearings which I don't like to recall very often. Someone was saying to me that there was no preference given to the Justice getting in the Yale University Law School. And I looked at this particular guy, who wasn't happy with me over another issue about logging roads through Federal lands. He was really mad at me about that. I looked at him and I said: Where did you go to school?
He said: I went to Yale.
I said: You are the guy who took my spot at Yale.
He said: What do you mean?
I said: We are the same age. You took my spot at Yale. I know you are the one.
He said: What are you talking about?
This guy happened to be from Alaska. I come from Delaware. If I'm not mistaken, you got points at Yale for being from Alaska. And probably his marks were better than mine, but I joked with him. He didn't know.
I said: I bet my marks were better than yours. I said: I'll make you another bet. I bet your daddy went to Yale.
He said: Yes, what difference does that make?
It makes a difference. Assume my marks had been the same as his. I am from Claymont, Delaware. My father is making 17,000 bucks a year, and I applied to Yale. He is from a geographically underrepresented area and his daddy went to Yale.
I mean this sincerely, I understand the anger of working-class and middle-class White people like me, my background. I can remember when my dad, who was an automobile salesman, I remember my dad being so angry when he was trying to borrow the money to get a student loan to send me to the local university and my sister almost at the same time. He was $800 over the limit. It was like 18,000 bucks he made that year, over the limit to be able to borrow.
The guy who worked on the lot came in really happy one day, and my dad was good friends with him. But the guy was the laborer who cleaned the cars. And he said: My son is getting in. I got the loan.
And my dad thought it was so unfair that this guy made one-third less than he did and he was able to get the loan, but my dad couldn't afford to send us all without the loan.
So I am not in any way belittling the legitimate concern and anxiety of middle class and lower middle class White folks who feel they are pushed out of the way. That is why I think we should give them all a $12,000 tax deduction to get to school which I have been pushing for 8 years now.
But it amazes me how some of our friends in this Chamber and in the body politic political elite really will bleed over the 1 or 2 or whatever percent of the White children who really do get bumped out of the way. Where is their bleeding for the 10, 20, or 30 percent of the Black kids or Latino kids who get pushed out of the way a thousand ways? Is anybody suggesting to me the injustice done to middle White class or any White student is anywhere nearly equivalent to the injustices done or the lack of opportunity available to minorities?
There is such an imbalance about this. That doesn't mean we should justify a wrong when it is only done to 1 percent of the people because there is a greater wrong done to another group of people. We ought to be able to figure out how to deal with this.
I will end with this: I respectfully suggest we should be making it a lot easier for kids to get to college, period, across the board. One of the things we should do is what my friend from Connecticut has devoted his career to, and he knows more about it than I do by a long shot, and that is making elementary and secondary education truly equal. He had an amendment that said, on this big bill we passed on education, by the way, if you are going to test people equally, make sure you spend equal amounts of money on them.
If you are a kid in west Philadelphia and you are a kid in Marion, which is one of the wealthiest areas just 4 miles away, I don't remember exactly what the numbers are, but it is like two or three to one resources spent on the kid in Marion to educate him than the kid in west Philadelphia. We are going to give them the same test. It reminds me of the old separate but equal stuff. So there is a lot we can do to make sure no child, White or Black, is bumped out of the way because they are qualified, but otherwise they do not suffer from one of the litany of things listed as being able to be taken into consideration in admission.
I am not making the case on the merits. I don't know enough about the Michigan policy. I hope we have a honest discussion about this when we talk about it because there are preferences built in across the board, absolute preferences.
I know, as a middle-class White kidlower middle class economicallygrowing up, who did relatively well, I knew that the kid who had a lot more money, whose parents had gone to college, had more of an advantage. I didn't begrudge them the advantage. It is just there. It is just there. Let us at least admit to that and acknowledge that. Let's stop thisand nobody has done this in the Chamber, but let's not start demagoging this notion that all these White kids are being discriminated against and so-called reverse discrimination is killing opportunities for White children.

Black transparency is an involuntary disclosure of secrets against a backdrop of systematic online surveillance, as large parts of contemporary life move into the digital realm. Black transparency, as a radical form of information democracy, has brought forward a new sense of unpredictability to international relations, and raises questions about the conscience of the whistleblower, whose personal politics are now instantly geopolitical. Empowered by networks of planetary-scale computation, disclosures today take on an unprecedented scale and immediacy. Difficult to contain and even harder to prevent, black transparency does not merely create openness, order, and clarity; rather, it triggers chaos, stirring the currents of a darker and more mercurial world.
Metahaven was founded in 2007 by Vinca Kruk and Daniel van der Velden. In Black Transparency— part essay, part fanzine—Metahaven embark on a journey of subversion, while examining transparency's intersections with design, architecture, and pop culture, as well as its ability to unravel the circuitry of modern power.

How can I integrate my payment form with Authorize.netAsked by bacup on February 03, 2014 at 10:36 AM
Which plan do I need to integrate?
If you are planning to use the Authorize.NET I would recommend using the Premium Subscription to start but you can always upgrade if you need more. The Payment Integration will work with All of our Plans including the Free Starter Plan but the Free One only allows up to 10 Payment Submissions a Month (resets on the 1st of each month for starter plan). So this is why I recommend at least upgrading to the Premium Plan for only $10/month to allow you to use it up to 1000 so that you can use your form and payment collection through Authorize.NET without any hindering limitations. However, it is certainly your choice to pick whichever you think would best suit your payment option and form needs.
And just so you know where the Payment Integration Tool is incase you were unsure. Here's a screenshot to show you for when you are inside of your Formbuilder.
Can you upgrade mid month if I have more than 10 payments?
Yes, You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time you choose. This tidbit of information I have mentioned to you is stated in the pricing details below our Plans listing. :)
Note: Please note that if you upgrade to one of our subscription plans then your monthly plan will reset according to the day of the month that you purchased your plan. Also be advised that all our subscription plans are recurring so if you only want your plan for one month then you must cancel it otherwise it will continue to rebill you automatically each month thereafter.
Hi, i'm working with the form builder and attempting to put everything in Spanish for my spanish-speaking clients. You can see an example here: http://asnq.com.ar/bacup/
The problema is that many of the text fields are showing up in english still (months, billing address title, etc) even though the administrator on our end is showing it in spanish. Once it goes lives, it converts back to english.
Also, the bos where the security code should go, is just appearing as "espanol", rather than codigo de seguridad.
Do you know why this is happening and how to fix it?

In an administration where school children have been prevented from touring the White House due to budget cuts, several rioters were granted audience with the President this week. One is known by the company one keeps. Ferguson activist Rasheen Aldridge, 20, one of the rioters in question, was just charged with assaulting a security guard at St. Louis City Hall.
Read More: Rush Limbaugh Goes After Fox News,Jeb Bush, and the GOP
Ashley Yates, Brittany Packnett, T Dubb-O, and Rasheen Aldridge were the delegation from Missouri. James Hayes from Ohio and New York's Jose Lopez were joined by Florida's Phillip Agnew who reported the events of the meeting. They claim it was arranged quickly and they were "skeptical."
…We told President Obama that we were not the "People's Spokespeople". We told him that we had neither the power, positions, nor desires to stop the eruptions in the streets and that they would continue until a radical change happened in this country. We told him that we had no faith in anything, church or state. We told him that the country was on the brink and that nothing short of major capitulations at all levels of the government to the demands of the people could prevent it.
He listened. Intently. He responded passionately. He agreed with many of our points and offered his take on the current State of the Union. He presented the reforms that have dominated the discourse in the hours after our meeting. He cautioned us against demanding too big and stressed gradualism. He counseled us that the wheels of progress turn sluggishly and reminded us of the progress that got us to this point: a room full of black folk in the Oval Office. He asked for our help, harkening back to his organizing days when, in the streets of Chicago, the cries of the people shifted the landscape. We debated on the power of the vote and the lack of faith in the Democratic party.
The movement got this meeting. Unrest earned this invite, and we can't stop.
It would appear the "activists" felt the President was sympathetic to their plight and agreed with their tactics and positions. What does that mean for the future of the nation? If "unrest earned this invite" does that mean cities across the United States can expect more rioting, looting, and lawlessness? Hurry up 2016, we need a new occupant in the White House.

McDonald's 3Q Profit Rises 5.9 Percent
McCafe drinks and Angus Third-Pounder are U.S. sales drivers.
NEW YORK -- With global comparable sales increasing more than analysts anticipated, McDonald's Corp. third-quarter profit rose 5.9 percent, according to a Bloomberg report.
In a statement, the company reported its net income jumped to $1.26 billion, or $1.15 a share, from $1.19 billion, or $1.05, a year earlier; revenue fell 3.5 percent to $6.05 billion.
In the United States, McDonald's is looking to new products, including McCafe espresso-based drinks and the $3.99 Angus Third-Pounder burger, larger than the chain's other sandwiches, to drive sales, Bloomberg reported. Premium items fueled sales in Europe, while convenience and value boosted demand in China and Australia, the company said.
Analysts predicted profit of $1.11 a share, the average of 18 estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Sales at restaurants open at least 13 months rose 3.8 percent. Analysts projected a rise of 2.9 percent, the average of four estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Sales rose 2.5 percent at U.S. stores, 5.8 percent in Europe and 2.2 percent in Asia, the Middle East and Africa. They were expected to climb 2.2 percent in the United States, 5.4 percent in Europe and 1.1 percent in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

Spiceworks is showing event logs for every other Windows 7 and XP workstation and every other Windows 2003 Server. But my 64-bit Windows Server 2008 isn't showing any event logs. I'd like to get some monitoring on that system. Any thoughts?
3 Replies
Jun 13, 2012 at 5:20 UTC
I'll give it a shot. Are all the servers and windows computers joined to the domain? Is the domain the 64 bit Win2k8 server? Is the Spiceworks collector a member of that domain?
Try creating a single IP scan range for that server. Use DOMAIN ADMIN credentials (or enterprise admin if you are in a forest) as in domain\user. Scan the device using the popup to the right of the scan range.
Jun 14, 2012 at 8:21 UTC
Thanks for responding...
I have three servers on the network, one stand alone but attached to the domain and two AD servers.
The 2008 server is my main AD server.
The spiceworks collector is a member of the domain and my account has domain admin privileges.
I did try to create a single scan and did use the standard domain admin account. The scan reveals everything about the system except the event logs.
BTW, if it matters, it's Server 2008 R2 SP1.

The majority of attacks on U.S. and coalition troops by Afghan soldiers who are supposed to be friendly are personal attacks unconnected to insurgent groups, defense officials said Wednesday.
Four defense officials testified in a House Armed Services Committee hearing about an attack by an Afghan private security contractor on U.S. troops in March 2011 that killed two soldiers, including a constituent of committee Chairman Buck McKeon (R-Calif.).
The issue of Afghan soldiers attacking coalition troops has been thrust into the news recently after an attack last month that killed four French soldiers. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said a week later that France would be withdrawing its coalition troops from Afghanistan a year early.
At the hearing, officials said most of the attacks involved members of the Afghan National Security Force, and three, including the March 2011 attack, were by private contractors. After personal attacks, insurgents infiltrating and impersonating Afghan security forces were the next most common type of attack.
Another killing of a NATO soldier by Afghan soldiers occurred Wednesday in southern Afghanistan, The Associated Press reported.
McKeon said that improvements were needed in screening Afghans who guard coalition bases. He said that these kinds of attacks are on the rise, as 75 percent have occurred in 2010 and 2011.
"The screening and vetting has been tragically weak in picking up signs of threats after the Afghan joined either the Afghan National Security Force, or a private security contractor," McKeon said. "DOD data indicates that at least 60 percent of all the attacks appear to be motivated by personal matters, arising after hiring."
David Sedney, a deputy assistant secretary of defense, said that the personal attacks occur because of personal issues, combat stress and other factors.
The March 2011 attack, where Army Spc. Rudy Acosta and Cpl. Donald Mickler Jr. were killed, occurred at Front Operating Base Frontenac, which was secured by a private security contractor.
The contractor, Tundra Security, had hired an Afghan man who was fired the year prior from a different command post for making threats about killing Americans, but his statements weren't included in his record.
Acosta's parents, constituents of McKeon's, attended the hearing. They did not testify, but McKeon read a statement for them, which said that U.S. troops should be guarding their bases, not Afghans.
McKeon said the issue of contractor security has been complicated because Afghan President Hamid Karzai has only allowed Afghan nationals to be used as security contractors, and not U.S. citizens. He has also called for all private security contractors to be disbanded and replaced with an Afghan Personal Protection Force run by the Afghanistan Ministry of Interior.
Defense officials said they have stepped up screening procedures for contractors since the attack last year.
Brig. Gen. Stephen Townsend, director of the Pakistan-Afghanistan Coordination Cell, said that the United States has worked with Afghanistan officials to create a layered screening process and improved detection of potential threats.
"Our bottom line up front is the protection of service members deployed in harm's way against any threat remains one of our highest priorities for our commanders and leaders," Townsend said. "Although there's no such thing as perfect protection, especially in Afghanistan, we know we must continue to develop effective ways to combat the insider threat to our service members."
Contractors do play an important role in Afghanistan, said Gary Motsek, deputy assistant secretary of defense for program support, as 20,000 soldiers would be needed to do the non-combat-related functions they provide.
"I don't believe we can actually fully eliminate them," Motsek said of the attacks, "but we must do everything in our power to minimize them."

Definitions Edit
Speaker recognition (also known as voice recognition)
|is a biometric modality that uses an individual's voice for verification and/or identification. For recognition purposes, speaker recognition uses models developed from an individual's speech, a feature influenced by both the physical structure of an individual's vocal tract and the behavioral characteristics of the individual.
|takes a voice sample of a user via the mobile device's microphone to identify and authenticate a user.[1]
Overview Edit
Speaker recognition can be used to verify a person's claimed identity or to identify a particular person. It is often where voice is the only available biometric identifier, such as telephone and call centers.
|A popular choice for remote authentication due to the availability of devices for collecting speech samples (e.g., telephone network and computer microphones) and its ease of integration, speaker recognition is different from some other biometric methods in that speech samples are captured dynamically or over a period of time, such as a few seconds. Analysis occurs on a model in which changes over time are monitored, which is similar to other behavioral biometrics such as dynamic signature, gait, and keystroke recognition.[2]
Speech recognition recognizes the words being said, and is not a biometric technology.
How it works Edit
During enrollment, a speaker recognition system captures samples of a person's speech by having him or her speak some predetermined information into a microphone or telephone a number of times. This information, known as a passphrase, can be a piece of information such as a name, birth month, birth city, or favorite color or a sequence of numbers. This is known as a "text-dependent system." "Text-independent systems" are also available that recognize a speaker without using a predefined phrase. Text-dependent systems perform more efficiently. Text-independent systems are more flexible and are more effective in situations where the individual may be unaware of the collection or unwilling to cooperate, or where spoofing is a concern.
The phrase or phrases are converted from analog to digital format, and the distinctive vocal characteristics, such as pitch, cadence, and tone, are extracted, and a speaker model is established. A template is then generated and stored for future comparisons. Voice templates are much larger than templates generated from other biometric technologies, typically 10,000 to 20,000 bytes.
"The required sensors currently exist within mobile phones, but this may not hold true for all mobile devices such as wearables and certain tablets."[3]

|JEL classification: E31, C81, E60, E66
Authors: Wilbert van der Klaauw, Wändi Bruine de Bruin, Giorgio Topa, Simon Potter, and Michael Bryan
This paper reports preliminary findings from a Federal Reserve Bank of New York research program aimed at improving survey measures of inflation expectations. We find that seemingly small differences in how inflation is referred to in a survey can lead respondents to consider significantly different price concepts. For near-term inflation, the "prices in general" question in the monthly Reuters/University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers can elicit responses that focus on the most visible prices, such as gasoline or food. Questions on the "rate of inflation" can lead to responses on the prices that U.S. citizens pay in general—an interpretation, or concept, closer to the definition of inflation that economists have in mind; they also lead to both lower levels of reported inflation and to lower disagreement among respondents. In addition, we present results associated with new survey questions that assess the degree of individual uncertainty about future inflation outcomes as well as future expected wage changes. Finally, using the panel dimension of the surveys, we find that individual responses exhibit considerable persistence, both in the expected level of inflation and in forecast uncertainty. Respondents who are more uncertain make larger revisions to their expectations in the next survey.

Despite all the kerfuffle of people claiming they just want a phone that makes phone calls, we beg to differ, we really do want a phone that does it all - internet, email, sat nav, and all kitted out in some fancy-schmancy chassis while you're at it. Yep, it's the age of everything, and these phones have it all.
HTC Touch Pro
The Pro is one of the few devices that boasts both a touch-screen and a full QWERTY keyboard. HTC's own TouchFlo user interface greatly enhances clunky old Windows Mobile 6.1, and email, texing and document-editing couldn't be better. It is a bit chunky, but it'll do until its slicker tilt-screen successor, the Touch Pro2, launches later this year.
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic
Nokia may have been pushing their first touch-screen device as a music phone, but with HSDPA, Wi-Fi, A-GPS and a 3.2-inch VGA screen, the 5800 XpressMusic makes a killer internet phone too. It renders most sites well, even memory-intensive ones like YouTube.
BlackBerry Bold
Our favourite BlackBerry is also the first with HSDPA support, and like its brethren, email on this is just perfect, from the full QWERTY keyboard to service integration. A-GPS, Wi-Fi, a full HTML browser and IM capabilities make this a winner.
Apple iPhone 3G
Yes, touch-screen keyboards aren't ideal for email-intensive use, but the iPhone uses it own predictive text method based on neighbouring letters, so you'll be emailing like a demon in no time. Not many handsets can approach its incredibly intuitive user interface and multi-touch screen (though hopefully the Palm Pre will - we're sick of these 'iPhone-killers' that fail to actually do it), and powerful features like A-GPS and HSDPA support keep it on our top five.
Nokia E71
This cult favourite may be nominally part of Nokia's business-oriented line, but with a dream email system, full QWERTY keyboard, HSDPA and HTML browser all housed in a slim, sleek chassis, this is a star phone for just about anyone. A handset whose functions, including the more complicated business features, are dead easy to use.

7-Eleven Debuts New Coffee Brew
BRAZILIAN Bold offers consumers a richer, coffeehouse-type flavor.
DALLAS -- Coffee-drinkers who prefer stronger, darker brews touted as coffeehouse blends have a new option on the 7-Eleven hot beverage bar. BRAZILIAN Bold is a new premium blend featuring select Arabica beans grown in the mountains of Central and South America. Priced at the same retail per cup as all other 7-Eleven hot beverages, this robust coffee complements the retailer's selection of mild to strong blends and offers a value-priced alternative to coffeehouses and donut shops brews, 7-Eleven said.
"In blind taste tests, we found that coffee-drinking consumers really like our Exclusive Blend coffee," stated Paul Pierce, 7-Eleven's senior director for merchandising. "We also learned that many young coffee-drinkers prefer a strong, rich flavor, so we developed a coffee to fit that flavor profile. Our new BRAZILIAN Bold scored just as high as strong flavors from national competitors in the taste tests we later conducted."
With its Exclusive Blend targeting consumers who prefer a milder coffee and the new BRAZILIAN Bold catering to those seeking a richer flavor, 7-Eleven rounds out its coffee trifecta with 100-percent Colombian coffee for those who like something in between, the chain said. Decaffeinated and flavored coffees -- like Hazelnut and French Vanilla -- hot chocolate and cappuccino drinks also continue to be popular.
"Our customers can create their own personalized hot drinks with no waiting in line to order or for someone else to prepare it, whether they prefer BRAZILIAN Bold straight-up, Colombian with hazelnut syrup and cream, or Exclusive Blend coffee mixed with hot cocoa and topped with cinnamon and mini-marshmallows," Pierce said in a statement. "Best of all, 7-Eleven offers a greater value, at around a dollar a cup -- no matter what goes into it -- versus typical coffeehouse prices of $3 to $4."
7-Eleven hot beverage bars feature five or more varieties of coffee; four flavored syrups (vanilla, caramel, hazelnut and Irish crème); four toppings (cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate and mini-marshmallows); hot chocolate; flavored cappuccino drinks; Half and Half and flavored creamers (French vanilla, hazelnut and Irish crème); sugar and artificial sweeteners; and several varieties of teabags to be brewed fresh with hot water.
Suggested retail price ranges from 99 cents to $1.79, based upon cup size (12 to 24 ounces) and geographic market, according to the Dallas-based company.

A SMALL Thornbury hotel has made a big name for itself after winning a prestigious tourism award.
Thornbury Castle beat off stiff competition to win the Small Hotel of the Year Award at Destination Bristol's annual Tourism and Hospitality Awards last Monday, February 17.
The annual awards ceremony celebrates the best of Bristol's tourism industry with 17 award categories.
It brings together tourism businesses and individuals from the area and recognizes their achievements over the last twelve months.
Group sales manager for Thornbury Castle Laura Dudley said the win was a huge compliment to all of the staff who consistently provide outstanding service to each and every guest.
"We are thrilled that our hard work, efforts and commitment to improving Thornbury Castle have paid off. Staff were thrilled to have been recognized and the team couldn't wait to announce to the other members that we'd won."
Mrs Dudley said it had been a tough contest as the Bristol area has a wealth of great small hotels. After winning the same award in 2013 Tornbury Castel were ready to retain the title.
"We submitted a strong entry and presented to the judges with our many key attributes that makes us the Small Hotel of the Year. We had won the award previously so we knew we were capable, worthy and ready to win again.
"Our hotel stands out as a very unique offering as we are steeped in history and our beautiful setting is simply stunning. Our passionate team of staff have worked so hard over the past year improving what they do and have strived for perfection so this, together with the fact that we've re-invested into the fabric of the property, meant that are worthy of the award."
There were around 150 nominations in total this year and the winners now go forward to represent Bristol in the VisitEngland Awards, taking place in May 2014.
Mrs Dudley said: "We are keeping everything crossed as we are not sure of the other hotels we will be competing against in our category. We know we have a great hotel and the exposure we will receive as a result will be incredible for us. We are just thrilled to have got as far as we have. We'd love to win and it would be absolutely great for team morale to have further reward and recognition for their contributions."

Marvel's civil war comes to your console
Spider-Man! Hulk! Human Torch! Wolverine! Daredevil! Iron Man ! If those names have inadvertently started a fanboy party in your trousers, you may as well slap four-stars on UA2 and get down to some savage superhero scrapping. But for those unmoved by Marvels inky wonders, this paen to Lycra and muscles is a bewildering, dated and often repetitive experience.
Based on Marvels Civil War plot where the superhero community is split by a new government initiative that requires masked vigilantes to reveal their secret identities UA2 is a marked improvement on its predecessor, the relentless combat enhanced with smoother controls, dialogue sequences that offer brief respite from the carnage, and the ability for heroes to combine their skills in titanic fusions that can destroy an army of enemies in a single strike.
But while the game looks fantastic and the developers have put a lot of love into making Marvels heroes as convincing as possible at its heart UA2 is still an old-fashioned, button-bashing brawler; and while the chaotic action is spine-tingingly exciting for the first few battles, the games brutal grind will soon become tiresome for all but the hardiest comicbook devotee.

|Teaching Database Internals with Derby
|Mon, 05 Jun 2006 00:12:09 GMT
Hi, I am planning to teach a third year undergraduate course on "Database Internals" with Derby. This is our second course in databases - the first covering ER, Relational Algebra, SQL, little bit of indexing, transactions etc. The three umbrella topics that I plan to cover are (1) Transactions (2) Indexing and (3) Query Optimization. After covering the theory from text I want to give students practical exercises in Derby. For project assignments students will form groups of three-to-four and work on a non-trivial assignment to evaluate/extend/add some functionality to Derby in the three topics mentioned above. I am a "newbie to Derby" and any suggestions about practial doable assignments and projects will be most welcome. Regards, Sanjay Sanjay Chawla Associate Professor (and Associate Head) School of Information Technologies Sydney University, NSW, Australia Tel: 61 2 9351 3516 http://www.it.usyd.edu.au/~chawla

What could possibly be wrong with gaining knowledge and information?
This article is a stub and is missing information.
A card to increase the power of the Digimon its used on. Used to boost Renamon's power during her fight with Allomon. This allowed her Frozen Wind attack (from a SnowAgumon Modify Card) to overpower Allomon and freeze him when before he'd overpowered her when she'd used that attack. Renamon then destroyed Allomon.

Definition Edit
A confidentiality-related threat
|occurs when the data stream containing email messages with sensitive information are accessible to an adversary. The type of attack that underlies this threat is passive since the adversary has read access but not write access to the email data being transmitted.[1]
Overview Edit
"There are two variations of this type of attack include:
- The adversary may have access to the packets that make up the email message as they move over a network. This access may come in the form of a passive wiretapping or eavesdropping attack.
- Software may be installed on a MTA that makes copies of email messages and delivers them to the adversary. For example, the adversary may have modified the target's email account so that a copy of every received message is forwarded to an email address outside the organization."[2]

On Friday,
October 27th, 2000, ITS in cooperation with the Office of Public
Relations, activated a new official PSC website.
This new and improved website takes the place of both the
current external and internal websites.
If you encounter
any technical difficulties with the site, please contact ITS's
new Senior Web Developer, Roderick A. Carder-Russell at firstname.lastname@example.com
If you have
any suggestions regarding the look or images used on the new
site, please share them with Michele Hutchins of the Office
of Public Relations at email@example.com
For information
about some of the features of the new site, please read the
New Features:
The navigational click paths and organization reflect a who-you-are
rather than a where-you-are perspective. This should alleviate
some guesswork in finding relevant information. In other
words, if you are a current student, click on "Undergraduate
Students," or if you are a faculty or staff member, click on
"Faculty and Staff," at which point you will see familiar
information resources.
News is now featured throughout the site
The new site more accurately reflects the vitality of the PSC
community by bringing PSC news to the homepage as well
as other appropriate pages throughout the site.
and Program descriptions on line
Featured on several pages, but especially important for
Prospective and Current Students is the on-line listing and
description of all PSC courses and programs along with new course
search capabilities.
look and feel
All Academic Departments not only feature a new and similar
look and feel, but also a level of functionality which should
greatly ease navigation. Links to existing department
pages are still available. We intend to help evolve existing
department pages to feature more unique department or discipline
New PSC
The new PSC banner is superimposed over all existing PSC pages
thereby providing a consistent PSC look throughout the entire
website. The banner not only sports a look consistent
with the current PSC Viewbook, it also provides an additional
navigational "Quick Jump" feature that allows users
to quickly jump to the most frequently used pages on the website.
New site
Many of the new site features use a mySQL database and
PHP (a scripting language). In doing so we have separated some
of the graphic elements of the web site from the data.
This should allow us to more easily change the look in the future,
while continuously building a more functional website.
loading times
As part of the design process, special consideration has been
given to providing content that loads quicker in the most frequently
accessed pages.

Derek Lam adopting 'intimate' business model
Derek Lam is shunning fast fashion in favour of a more "intimate" business model.
The American designer worked for Michael Kors for many years before launching his own label in 2003.
In addition to clothes, the Derek Lam and Derek Lam 10 Crosby brands have shoes, handbags and eyewear collections, which have won over A-list clientele including Olivia Palermo and U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama.
While brands such as Burberry and Tom Ford are adopting see now, buy now business models, Lam is opting to take a different approach and is focusing on creating relationships with clients rather than dropping collections faster.
"Intimacy is my statement on the shift to see now, buy now," he told thestar.com of his plans for upcoming presentations of his work. "Let it be intimate, with me talking directly about the work."
Rather than getting caught up in the world of bloggers and socialites, Lam is happy that he chose to show his spring 2017 collection earlier this fall (16) to a handful of editors and buyers in a quiet setting instead. He asserts that this strategy allowed him to block out much of the "noise" surrounding absorption and consumption of fashion at the present, which he's been able to reflect in his designs, which are known for their calculated simplicity and modern sensibility.
Lam adds he is focused on creating garments for strong women, and looks to leaders of the past and present to find inspiration. For instance, his spring collection was inspired by the life of late American artist Georgia O'Keeffe.
"Not her art, as that has been done, and I never like to directly translate, but her strong personality, her as a woman," he explained. "I wanted to go deeper and really understand her as the prototype of a feminist."
