Extend the leading management solution to printersAvalanche Printer Management gives administrators new insight and control over Bluetooth™ printers. Through Printer Management, administrators have the ability to identify the pairings of mobile terminals to printers, enabling personnel to more accurately and easily identify a printer uniquely. For example, administrators can monitor printer utilization allowing better insight to plan for maintenance and thereby minimizing down time. Control and assess printer inventory by getting accurate asset information such as the firmware Revision, battery levels, installed flash / RAM together with odometer readings.
With Printer Management, organizations can reduce confusion over printer identification and create usage reports that determine which printers are used most frequently. Understanding which printers are used most, coupled with Printer Management's ability to identify which printers are nearing the end of their head life expectancy, gives administrators a new facility to set scheduled maintenance in advance of any problems. Wavelink Printer Management ensures that organizations aren't affected by unforeseen printer downtime.
Know what's installed
You can plan for maintenance instead of running the risk of printer failure. Quickly find a printer by identifying which mobile terminal a printer is paired with.
Know what's being used and where
Administrators will know exactly where consumables are being used the most and get an exact measure of print head usage and life expectancy. With Avalanche Printer Management, departments also develop a new way to audit.
Reporting Capabilities
With a template-based report engine that gives users the power to schedule reports at set times that report on key information, users are able to gather critical data such as Consumables usage, Printer Utilization, Battery levels and Memory statistics. Additional analysis may be performed by exporting to a Microsoft Excel® compatible format. In addition, reports may be displayed in a browser.
Integrated with the Web user interface (UI) of Avalanche, and using the secure authentication protocols found within Avalanche, users care able to access the Printer Management UI anywhere safely. Once they have access, using the Printer Management interface, administrators can control print jobs and command synchronization. Administrators are also able to pull together information that lists all the current printers and their properties together.

WikiLeaks Cables Expose Names
WikiLeaks has published roughly 134,000 diplomatic cables in recent days, and many of the published documents did not conceal the names of the sources, including those whose names on the cables were marked "strictly protect." In its previously published cables, WikiLeaks edited the cables to hide the identities of the diplomatic sources. The release could lead to negative reprisals for sources in authoritarian countries. One expert on government secrecy said, "If these cables have not been carefully reviewed, it's likely to be problematic for any number of people named in the cables." The cables also detail Apple's slow response to fight with counterfeits in China.

I think the background is fine, as any more detail could over-saturate the image. I do have to say that the Queen of Hearts shouldn't have a spade on her head, though. Other than that, I'm glad you didn't follow the Disney blueprint for Alice. 5/5...

Great company to deal with, hotel accommodation good, although beds can be a little hard (consider taking a small self inflating sleeping mat if you like softer beds). You need to be prepared for squat toilets In Asian countries. Nothing can beat having a native guide to share their cultural knowledge.
Review submitted 12 Nov 2017
Great trip - the tour was well organised and we had just the right amount of free time for swimming in the pool at the resort in Sukhothai, and shopping and browsing night markets in Chang Mai. I would recommend doing the BMP elephant care project half day trip, it was one of my highlights, where we had the opportunity to feed and bath the elephants. I did the cycling tour in Chang Mai however given we had already cycled in both Sukhothai and at the homestay I would recommend doing the cooking class instead if you can't decide between the two.

Congressman Jack Kingston (R-GA) joined Congressman Maurice Hinchey (D-NY), Congressman Roscoe Bartlett (R-MD), and the Office of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) today to announce the formation of the Defense Energy Security Caucus (DESC). The Caucus aims to educate members of Congress and the public on the strategic value of utilizing sustainable energy sources for the U.S. military, highlight and support established and emerging defense energy initiatives, and find solutions to energy challenges facing the Department of Defense (DoD).
"By forming the Defense Energy Security Caucus, Representatives Bartlett, Giffords, Hinchey, and Kingston are continuing the strong leadership the Congress demonstrated when they helped create the DoD Operational Energy office in 2009," said Sharon Burke, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Operational Energy Plans and Programs, who delivered remarks at the DESC kickoff event. "Working together, I believe we can transform the way the Department uses energy, which will improve capabilities for our warfighters, cut costs for American taxpayers, and ultimately save lives."
"I am so happy to have created and co-chair the Defense Energy Security Caucus, which will help inform members of Congress and the public on ways to improve the way our armed forces use energy," said Hinchey. "The Pentagon is the world's largest industrial consumer of oil. For every dollar increase per barrel in oil prices, its fuel costs jump by $130 million and for every 24 fuel convoys needed in Afghanistan and Iraq, one warfighter is killed or injured. If we can make our military more energy efficient and reduce the number of refueling convoys, we won't just save taxpayer dollars while protecting our environment, we'll also save lives."
"Representatives Hinchey, Giffords, Kingston and I have created the Defense Energy Security Caucus so that those of us on the Armed Services, Energy and Commerce, Appropriations and other committees in the Congress can work together to most effectively assist our Armed Forces to succeed in the vital effort to reduce the vulnerabilities from oil for the men and women in our military," said Bartlett. "I am very pleased that our first guest is Sharon Burke because she is the first person to hold her position. It was created by Congress to most effectively lead the Defense Department and assist our military to achieve more fight with less fuel."
"The might of the United States' armed forces is unmatched around the world," said Kingston. From jet fuel to batteries carried in a rucksack, energy is at the heart of that might. With this caucus we hope to increase awareness of and support for energy conservation and efficiency. Doing so will lessen our dependence on foreign sources of energy while saving precious resources and lives."
"Congresswoman Giffords knows that saving fuel saves the lives of American soldiers," said Pia Carusone, chief of staff to Giffords. "That's one reason she has led the way in Congress and introduced the DOD Energy Security Act. The Defense Energy Security Caucus will provide a forum to advance policies to save American lives, save taxpayer money, and make the military a leaner and more lethal fighting force."
The caucus intends to be a forum through which the DoD, the Armed Forces, energy industry, and members of Congress can exchange ideas and give defense energy security policy an additional synergistic platform that will contribute to mission success, protect lives, save money, and safeguard the environment.
Current members of the DESC are Representatives Maurice Hinchey (co-chair), Roscoe Bartlett (co-chair), Jack Kingston (co-chair), the Office of Gabrielle Giffords (co-chair), Earl Blumenauer, Gerry Connolly, Randy Forbes, John Garamendi, Colleen Hanabusa, Jay Inslee, Steve Israel, Adam Kinzinger, Jim Langevin, Mike Turner and Delegate Madelleine Bordallo. The caucus began recruiting members in May and co-chairs were determined soon before. The caucus website can be accessed at http://desc.hinchey.house.gov/.

Minnesota West Policies
Chapter 2: Students
2.9 Satisfactory Progress Standards
Minnesota West Community & Technical College adheres to Minnesota State policy of maintaining an open door admissions policy, assessing students, and providing developmental coursework and other programs of assistance to support student success. However, students must perform at an acceptable academic level and program completion level to continue enrollment and be eligible to receive financial aid.
Minnesota West Community & Technical College is a publicly supported institution and has an obligation to follow rules and regulations set forth by the state and federal government by providing documented accountability of the taxpayer's investment in education by closely monitoring all students' academic progress.
Minnesota West Community & Technical College requires that students make satisfactory academic progress toward a degree, diploma or certificate to remain in good standing. According to regulations governing the federal financial aid programs, a student must be enrolled in a program of study leading to a degree or certificate and must be making satisfactory academic progress according to standards and practices of the institution in order to continue to be eligible for the federal programs (Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Direct Loan, Federal PLUS, Federal Perkins, and Federal work Study), state programs (Minnesota State Grant, Minnesota Non-AFDC Child Care Grant, Minnesota State Work Study, and Student Education Loan Fund), and institutional programs. All students must comply with the standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress as outlined in this policy without exception for full-time/part-time status or regardless of program of study.
Satisfactory Academic Progress is defined as progressing in a positive manner toward fulfilling requirements for the degree or certificate in a given program of study. Satisfactory progress is the measurement of a student's performance (credits completed and cumulative grade point average) in meeting the institutional degree requirements.
Minnesota West Community & Technical College believes that students are responsible for their own academic progress and for seeking assistance when experiencing academic difficulty.
Minnesota West Community & Technical College has an established procedure for placing students on academic warning, academic suspension, financial aid warning, and financial aid suspension.
There is also an appeal process for academic/financial aid suspension based on unusual or extenuating circumstances. Appeal forms for both academic and financial aid issues are available from the Student Services Office, the Campus Administrator Office or online.
The standards that follow are based on Federal requirements and Minnesota State Board Policy.
1. Qualitative Measure
All students are required to maintain an acceptable grade point average (GPA). The minimum standard is progressive based on cumulative registered credits and is detailed below.
Grades of A,B,C,D, and F will be included in calculating a student's GPA.
|Cumulative Registered Credits
|Minimum Required GPA
|0 - 5
|6 - 15
2. Quantitative Measures
A. Required Completion Percentage: Students are required to complete a minimum of all attempted credits as follows:
|Cumulative Registered Credits
|Minimum Completion Percentage
|0 - 5
|6 +
The completion percentage will be reviewed after the end of each term. Grades of Incomplete (I), Failing (F),Ceased to attend (FW), Withdraw (W), No Credit (NC) or No Grade Assigned (Z) do not count toward satisfactory completion but as attempted credits.
B. Maximum Time Frame: All students are expected to complete their program within an acceptable period of time. Financial Aid recipients may continue to receive aid until they complete all of their required coursework or until they have attempted 150% of the normal time required to complete a program (ex: for a 64 credit program you can attempt 96 credits towards the completion of the program and receive financial aid) There is no warning period for Maximum Time Frame.
1. If a student changes programs after receiving financial aid for partial completion of one program, and if the new completion time will be more than 150% of normal completion of the original program, the maximum time for the student's financial aid eligibility will be agreed to be the length of time to complete only the additional courses required to complete the second program.
2. If a student decides to have a double major, the 150% completion time may be extended. The maximum time for the student's financial aid eligibility will be agreed to be the length of time to complete only the additional courses required to complete the second major.
3. If a student completes one program and decides to enter into another program, the maximum time for the student's financial aid eligibility will be agreed to be the length of time to complete only the additional courses required to complete the second program.
3. Evaluation Period
Satisfactory Academic Progress will be monitored as follows:
All students with registered credits during a term will be evaluated at the end of the term including summer to make sure that all criteria of the satisfactory progress policy have been met. The review is based on cumulative records. Students who are part-time will not be evaluated until six cumulative registered credits are posted on the student's transcript.
4. Failure to Meet Standards
- Academic and Financial Aid Warning and Suspension
A student will be placed on Academic and Financial Aid Warning for one term if he/she fails to meet these standards at the end of the review period. Students on warning are eligible to receive financial aid. To be removed from warning, a student must meet the SAP standards at the end of their warning period.
If a student fails to meet the SAP standards at the end of their warning period, he/she will be placed on Academic and Financial Aid Suspension.
Academic and Financial Aid Suspension: A student will be placed on suspension if: he/she does not satisfactorily remove him/herself from Academic and Financial Aid warning.
Financial Aid suspension: He/she has reached 150% of credits attempted for Financial Aid suspension or MWCTC has determined it is not possible for the student to raise their GPA or completion rate to meet the college's standards prior to the end of the program for which the student is receiving financial aid.
A student does not have to be placed on academic suspension to be placed on financial aid suspension.
- Extraordinary Circumstances
Students may be immediately suspended from financial aid eligibility in the event of extraordinary circumstances, including but not limited to previously suspended (and reinstated) students whose academic performance falls below acceptable standards during a subsequent term of enrollment; students who register for courses, receive financial aid, and do not attend any classes; and students whose attendance patterns appear to abuse the receipt of financial aid.
5. Notification
The college will notify a student in writing by mail and/or student email when they enter into a warning or suspension status. It is the student's responsibility to monitor their Satisfactory Academic Progress.
6. Appeal Process:
The appeal of academic suspension and appeal of financial aid suspension are separate processes. Approval of an academic appeal does not guarantee approval of a financial aid appeal. By federal regulations, the guidelines for approval of financial aid appeals are more restrictive.
Academic Appeal:
- Appeals must be submitted in writing using the Academic/Financial Aid Reinstatement Appeal form available on the College website.
- The appeal must include an explanation of the extenuating circumstances that affected academic progress.
- A completed Education Plan including semester by semester plan, academic goals and actions/steps to achieve goals. It must be signed by student and advisor.
- If requested by the Campus Administrator or designee, the appeal must include supporting documentation beyond the written explanation.
- Appeals must be received by the Campus Administrator prior to the beginning of the next term. Any appeals received after the semester begins will be considered for the next term. Appeals received after the semester begins will be considered for the current semester only if the student plans to take short courses that have not yet started.
- A committee of three or more members and the Campus Administrator will consider the appeal.
- The appeals committee will meet within a reasonable time frame prior to the start of each term. The Campus Administrator may call other meetings as needed.
- The decision will be transmitted to the student within three working days after the decision has been made. The decision will be final.
- If an appeal is denied, a student may file a new appeal in a subsequent semester.
- A campus dean can approve the registration into one course without lifting the suspension.
Academic Reinstatement
A student who has been suspended from enrollment may return to the college on probationary status after an appeal has been approved with the following requirements.
- The student will be continued on probationary status if the student completes 75% of their registered credits in the probationary semester with a 2.5 term grade point average but has not met the institution's cumulative standards.
- The student will be removed from probationary status when both the cumulative qualitative and quantitative criteria for satisfactory academic progress have been met.
- The student must contact her/his academic advisor three times each semester to report academic status and registration for next term.
Financial Aid Appeals
A student who fails to make satisfactory academic progress and is suspended from enrollment has the right to appeal based on unusual or mitigating circumstances including but not limited to death of a relative, illness, hospitalization, or injury to the student. Mitigating circumstances are situations that are out of the control of the student and were not present at the time of initial enrollment. An academic appeal must be approved before a financial aid appeal can be considered.
The appeal must be submitted using the Academic/Financial Aid Reinstatament Appeal form found on our website.
- The appeal must include an explanation of the extenuating circumstances that negatively affected academic progress.
- The appeal must include supporting documentation beyond the written explanation.
- The appeal must include what has changed in the student's situation that would allow the student to demonstrate satisfactory academic progress at the end of the next evaluation period.
- Sitting out a year is not in itself a reason for appeal or reinstatement of financial aid.
The initial consideration of appeal shall be undertaken by the Director of Financial Aid or a designee. Students have the right to request appeals of adverse decisions to go to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee. Results of all appeals will be communicated to the student in writing in a timely manner along with pertinent information regarding the conditions of the appeal and the length of the appeal period.
The appeal must include what has changed in the student's situation that would allow the student to demonstrate satisfactory academic progress at the end of the next evaluation period.
7. Financial Aid Reinstatement
A student will be eligible for Reinstatement of Aid when:
- They satisfactorily complete acceptable academic work (2.0 GPA and 67% completion) in a minimum of 6 credit hours taken toward completion of their degree in the same semester. This student cannot receive financial aid for the period during which eligibility is being reinstated. A student who has met this condition must still be approved through the appeal process. Reinstatement of financial aid is not guaranteed.
- They have had a financial aid suspension appeal approved based on unusual or mitigating circumstances including but not limited to death of a relative, illness, hospitalization, or injury to the student. Mitigating circumstances are situations that are out of the control of the student and were not present at the time of initial enrollment.
- They have met the conditions specified in his/her academic plan but have not met the institution's cumulative standards. In such cases, MWCTC shall permit the student to remain on a continued probation status for a subsequent evaluation period.
- They have a grade of Incomplete (I) turn into an acceptable letter grade during the first twenty days of the semester following the suspension that enables the student to meet the minimum Satisfactory Progress requirements.
- They have met the cumulative GPA and completion rate requirements by taking credits on their own (no financial aid). Students need to contact the Director of Financial Aid in writing when they have met the requirements.
8. Additional Elements
- Treatment of Grades: A course repeated with the intent of improving GPA will have both the initial and repeated course counted when calculating courses attempted. Grades of Incomplete (I), Failing (F), Failure, Ceased to attend (FW), Withdraw (W), No Credit (NC), In Progress (IP), or No Grade Assigned (Z) shall be treated as credits attempted but not successfully completed.
- Academic Amnesty: Credits for which students have been granted academic amnesty ("academic forgiveness", "academic renewal", etc.) will be included in both cumulative GPA and completion percentage for financial aid warning/suspension calculations.
- Audited Courses: Audited courses (AU) are not included in any financial aid satisfactory academic progress measurements.
- Consortium Credits: Credits for which financial aid is received under a consortium agreement will be included in cumulative GPA, completion percentage and maximum time frame calculations for financial aid warning/suspension.
- Remedial Credits: Developmental courses are those awarded for remedial course work (below 1000 levels). Students may receive financial aid for developmental credits up to a maximum of 30 credit hours (excluding ESL). These credits are included in all financial aid satisfactory academic progress measurements. Up to 30 credits of developmental credits shall be excluded from maximum time frame calculation.
- Repeated Courses: Repeated credits are credits awarded when a student repeats a course in order to improve a grade. The last grade will become the grade calculated for GPA purposes. Academic policy allows a student to repeat a course no more than two times, however, a student shall not be permitted to receive financial aid for more than one repetition of a previously passed course. All repeated credits are included in the percentage of completion and maximum time frame calculation for financial aid purposes.
- Transfer Credits: Transfer credits accepted by Minnesota West Community & Technical College shall be counted as credits attempted for calculation of cumulative completion percentage, and grades associated with these credits shall not be used in calculating cumulative GPA. Transfer credits accepted and applied by Minnesota West Community & Technical College toward a student's general education program, or degree requirements shall apply toward the maximum time frame calculation.
- Withdraws: Credits for courses that a student withdraws from after the drop period will be included in credits attempted but not successfully completed for purpose of monitoring academic satisfactory progress. Thus, a "W" does not impact GPA, but does negatively impact the cumulative completion percentage.
- Students who have not met the institution's cumulative grade point average and completion percentage standards and have not met the conditions specified in his/her academic plan, the student shall be re-suspended immediately upon completion of the evaluation.
Student Eligibility Policy
A student must meet federal/state requirements to be eligible and receive financial aid.
Federal Requirements
- A student must be a citizen of the United States or an eligible nonresident.
- A student meets the requirements of the Selective Services regulations.
- A student may not be in default on a student loan or owe an overpayment on a Title IV funding at any previously attended postsecondary school.

When Apple introduces a Mac new OS X, it often takes the opportunity to freshen up existing applications, adding capabilities or improving the way things get done.
Such is the case in Leopard with two OS X mainstays - Safari and Automator. Let's examine what's new with Mac OS X 10.5's built-in web browser.
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard: complete review
Safari 3.0
See also: Safari 3.0 beta on Windows review
Of all the changes introduced by Leopard, the version of Safari that ships with the new OS may hold the least mystery. That's because Safari 3.0 became available as a public beta back in June, so most of its features are widely know.
There's really only one big difference between the Safari 3.0 on Tiger and the full version Safari 3.0 included with OS X 10.5, and that's the Open This Page In Dashboard toolbar button. Using this feature, you can turn a portion of any Web page into a Dashboard widget.
The big changes
Create web clips As mentioned, you can now create your own Dashboard widgets from web pages in Safari. The idea here is that you can use this feature to save yourself needless trips to your browser just to check a specific portion of a web page for updates - checking sports scores on one part of a BBC news page, for example. Just use this feature to turn that section of the web page into a Dashboard widget, press F12, and you can quickly scan for updates.
The process is quite simple: click on the Open This Page In Dashboard toolbar button in Safari, and the page will dim, except for a white rectangle. Move your mouse until the rectangle is over the area you'd like to make into a Web Clip, then click the mouse button. When you click, you'll see a series of adjustment circles appear on the rectangle; drag these to fine tune the selection area, then click on the Add button.
When you click Add, Dashboard will open, displaying your newly created widget. You can then click on the widget's info ("i") button to choose a theme for your widget.
And that's all there is to it - as long as you leave your widget open. Unfortunately, there's no way to save a user-created widget, so if you close the widget (by clicking on its "x" indicator), you'll have to start the whole process again.
Improved search Searching in Safari is now dynamic. Instead of searching after entering your entire search term, Safari searches as you type (after you press Command-F). As you type characters, Safari highlights all the matching terms on the page, reducing the list of matches as you type more characters. It also shows you all instances of your search term instead of making you cycle through them.
Bookmark groups of tabs You can now create a bookmark from a group of tabs, as you can with Firefox. For example, assume you've been browsing the web for a couple hours, and realise it'd be great to have your current assortment of tabs (say six of them) available as a group for future use. All you need to do is select Bookmarks -> Add Bookmark For These 6 Tabs, and then name the bookmark.
Recover from mistakes Safari's History menu now includes a Reopen Last Closed Window menu item. You'll say thank you for this handy feature every time you get overly aggressive with Command-W - no longer will you have to retrace your steps to get back to the page you were viewing. Instead, just use History -> Reopen Last Closed Window, and your last-viewed page will open up again.
Need to go even further back in time? Safari 3.0 also adds a Reopen All Windows From Last Session item as well. And yes, it does exactly what it claims to do - reopening all windows (and tabs) that you had open when you last quit Safari.
Prevent mistakes Safari has a new feature aimed at stopping you from doing something silly. It will now warn you if you click the red close box when you have more than one tab open. (It will also warn you if you try to close a tab or window with text entered in a web form.)
Make history disappear If you don't like the thought that every page you've visited is saved indefinitely, you'll love the new settings in Safari, which adds the ability to auto-expire your browsing history over time via its preferences. You can choose to clear entries from the history file after a day, a week, two weeks, a month, a year, or manually.

© 2017 CFL. All rights reserved.
Now Reading
Is it too soon for me to get excited about the return of the CFL to Ottawa?
We have been hearing for years that Ottawa was on the verge to returning to the dance. With the latest news from last week that Ottawa city council had voted in favour of the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group to return Lansdowne Park into a viable location for football I believe I'm allowed to celebrate, aren't I?
Now there are hurdles. When was the last time the terms "construction" and "on schedule" were ever used in the same sentence and it meant something positive? As someone who had to wait for his condo to be built many years ago I have the same level of expectations for construction companies as I do for pizza If it's 30 minutes or it's free, I expect my pie to arrive at the 29:57 mark.
The other issue is of course scheduling. How do you have an odd number of teams? The idea of at least one team on a bye every week seems crazy and makes my head hurt. But least we have a team back in our nations capital.
Hopefully the momentum that comes with the return of the O-Dot (Sorry got tired of writing "Ottawa" & "nations capital") and the problems with an unbalanced schedule will act as a catalyst for the addition of a 10th team. The CFL may be better served with 10 teams, 6 making the playoffs and that three down football will be played in close proximity to where our Prime Minister calls home. (Ha! Found a new way to mention Ottawa without saying Ottawa).
As for that other potentially 10th team, I'm hoping for a central Maritime location but I have no problem with Quebec City getting a franchise, really it feels like win-win.
To the issue of whether or not a team will work in Ottawa, I'm going to be an optimist here and say it should work. The 100% reduction in the Glieberman factor alone will play a massive role in the team's viability.
I'll give Lonnie credit for admitting in a Tim Baines column for the Ottawa SUN that he was way too young to run the team but that's about all I can say positive about the family. By the way I loved this quote from Lonnie from the same article:
"Mardi Gras was a good decision," said Glieberman. "A survey of more than 4,000 people showed that only 20% were offended by Mardi Gras. It was a fun promotion. The upper deck was virtually sold out and once we cancelled it, the upper deck was only half full. If you wanted to avoid it, you could sit in 18,000 other seats."
So in his mind pissing off "just" about 800 paying customers is seen as a win? Hey I love the many splendors that come with Mardi Gras but that number of angry fans was just waaaaay too high.
» Ottawa On Track for 2014» Video: Ottawa Eyes 2014 Return» Video: On the Hunt for a GM» Video: Cohon on Expansion Draft» Images: New Ottawa Stadium Concept» Images: The Best of Ottawa Football» Expansion Draft plan approved
I'm going to put my faith that the people in charge at the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group know what they're doing. You don't spend this much time and money unless you have done your due diligence.
The obvious storyline is the team will need to win to truly make the franchise successful. And really is there any fan base that deserves a winner more than Ottawa? Saskatchewan can cry and moan all they want about their recent spate of bad luck (I won't mention a number that is higher than 12 and less than 14 and has nothing to do with a certain TSN documentary) but that's nothing compared to the depths that had befallen on the Artist formally knows as the Rough Riders. The team has not had a winning season 1978! Read that last sentence again. The last time they won a playoff game was in 1982.
Now what I can't wait for is the the Ottawa Expansion Draft in December, 2013. As anyone who reads this column knows, I'm a sucker for a good draft. But an expansion draft is so much better than a regular one. Your normal draft is all about getting the best collegiate talent, an expansion draft is really more about failure and shame. Just who are the guys that the other eight teams feel are expendable? It's the equivalent of selecting from a group of players that basically were all picked last to play a pick up game. Please TSN broadcast this event! Just imagine the indignity of the last player taken. All right I'll calm down.
Let's leave on a positive note, shall we? The time is right for another team for several reasons. I think owners are smarter than in the past, they've learned from the models set by the Alouettes and TFC, build smaller, fan friendly stadium that are less expensive to operate. Also the level of Canadian talent is dramatically better than the last time Ottawa had a team. A new team will help to showcase our own home grown talent and, mathematically speaking, should help increase the odds of one day seeing a Canadian start at quarterback.
So here's hoping the stadium is built in time, the team is competitive sooner rather than later and the franchise can come up with an original name. Ma I suggest "Argo"? The movie did get a 94% on Rotten Tomatoes.

61-Year-Old Woman Gives Birth to Twins
Antonia Leticia Rovati Asti gave birth to her first two children, a set of twins, but the Brazilian woman is gaining attention for the unorthodox fashion in which she did it in -- at the age of 61.
Asti, a native of Brazil, gave brith to twins recently with the help of an assisted reproduction specialist, Dr. Orlando de Castro Neto. According to New York Daily News reports, the doctor had no issues with the woman's age when he decided to help her give birth using 10-year-old frozen embryos that were fertilized with her husband's sperm.
However, he did note that society may have different views on the senior citizen's decision to give birth to twins.
"The age didn't matter at all," Neto said in the Daily News report. "The only condition is that a woman has a uterus."
However, various people took to Twitter to express their views on the woman's decision to bring twins into the world. Some people thought the woman's ability to produce two children at her age was nothing short of a miracle.
"There will be miracles when you believe," one person tweeted.
Another person seemed to agree with those sentiments by tweeting, "Praise the Lord."
However, others questioned why Asti would use the frozen embryos that were left over from a failed in-vitro fertilization ten years ago to give birth at her age.
"Woman gave birth at the age of 61," one person questioned. "I'm sorry, but that's disgusting."
Another person seemed to follow the same frame of thinking saying, "No way that's too old!"
Despite the criticism, Antonia's husband Jose Asti, said he will provide his children with love.
"I will love these children very much and work hard to put food in their mouths," her husband said after the children's recent births, according to the Daily News.

I wish to condemn, in the strongest terms, the attacks by the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) against Christian and other religious minorities in Iraq. Christian friends who migrated a long time ago from Iraq to the United States called my family, and were informed that our hearts were bleeding to see how the situation was worsening in Iraq.
That was confirmed by both families that Muslims, Christians and other religious groups lived in harmony in Iraq for more than 1,000 years. The Christian friends said that, "Those who committed those atrocities do not represent the true Iraqi Muslims."
In the meantime, there are deep concerns and worry, not only in the Middle East but all over the world, that the decision of the Obama administration to become unilaterally involved in Iraq by air attacks and drones will complicate the problem.
There is a fear that such operations will expand to involve ground troops. While the administration is stating that the deteriorating situation in Iraq is political and requires a political solution, it is using a military force in favor of the Kurds and the Shiites in Iraq. The administration is accused of being ready to use military force against, or to ignore the tragedies involving, Sunni Arabs.
A few weeks ago, the Kurdish militia called the Pesh Marga occupied, by force, the Iraqi city of Kirkuk, which is composed of Arabs, Kurds, and Turkmens, and the administration even did not issue a statement condemning the use of force to occupy an Iraqi city.
Therefore, the Kurdish authorities will take advantage of the U.S. attacks and occupy Mosul, a major Arab city in northern Iraq. Sunni Arab friends and relatives are living under fear in Baghdad because Shiite militias and government security forces are kidnapping Iraqi Sunni Arabs, and I did not see any statement by the administration condemning these actions.
The Iraqi government used force against Sunni Arabs in Faluja, Ramadi, Haweeja and other towns that were peacefully protesting its sectarian policies.
Instead of condemning these actions and imposing an arms embargo against the Iraqi government, the administration decided to supply it with weapons. More than 100,000 Syrians were killed, many of them by chemical weapons used by the Syrian government.
The administration set a red line for using chemical weapons and promised to take action, but ultimately it seemed that the red line was set in sand, and it disappeared later on. There was a military coup in Egypt, which resulted, as revealed by a recent Human Rights Watch (HRW) report, in the death of more than 1,000 Egyptian protesters, which it described as "a planned massacre."
In accordance with American law, the United States government should impose an arms embargo in this case, but the administration reversed its earlier position, and is ready to supply Egypt with weapons, thus enabling the military dictatorship to kill more Egyptians protesting against the military coup.
About 2,000 Palestinians and 60 Israelis were killed in the latest Gaza war. The United Nations Security Council was prevented by the administration from assuming its responsibility to maintain international peace and security by effectively dealing with that conflict.
In the meantime, the administration has not demonstrated the leadership to resolve this longest conflict in the history of the United Nations by establishing peace and justice in the Holy Land.
Is it time for the administration to have a genuine review of its entire policy in the Middle East in favor of peace, justice and true democracy? That lofty goal will not be achieved until many Americans voice their concerns in favor of new direction in the foreign policy of the United States in the Middle East, as stated above.
My sincere hope is that our foreign policy will reflect the aspirations of the American people for peace, justice and respect for human rights everywhere in the world.

Fogarty To Run Petronas-sponsored Sauber World SuperbikeTeam

From a press release:
CARL Fogarty has agreed a deal with Malaysian oil and gas producers PETRONAS which breaks new ground in motorcycling.
PETRONAS will sponsor the four-times World Superbike champion to run his own team in the series for five years, using a development of their GP1 engine.
And, in a unique development, PETRONAS are to fund the mass-production of a Foggy brand of road bike.

The 36-year-old British rider, forced into retirement through injury last year, is thrilled by the chance to launch a new phase of his glittering career.
He said: "This is a once in a life-time opportunity and the biggest deal of my career.
"I am determined to repay the faith shown in me by PETRONAS by displaying the same commitment to winning that I showed during my riding career.
"I have been focused on setting up my own team since retirement but did not dream I would be doing it as a 'new manufacturer'! So I am doubly determined to make this a success.

"My company, Team Foggy Racing Ltd, has been working on this deal for months and it is such a relief to be finally able to announce it to the world."
Fogarty raced for a PETRONAS-sponsored team in the Malaysian championships in 1992 and used his friendship with Malaysia-based businessman David Wong, PETRONAS' consultant in their World Superbike project, to set up the deal.
The project represents a departure from original plans to run the GP1 in the MotoGP series, with PETRONAS opting to use the legendary status of Fogarty and his huge worldwide following to launch into the road bike manufacturing sector.
Paolo Flammini, president of SBK International, who run the World Superbike series, welcomed the PETRONAS initiative.
He said: "Carl Fogarty is a legend of superbikes and we are extremely happy that he will continue his new life in our championship.
"This initiative is further proof of the appeal of the World Superbike series has towards the motorcycle industry and new commerce in that industry.
"We are proud to have the project focused on this series."
Foggy PETRONAS Racing aim to start the series at the fifth round at Monza on May 12.

A stroke of good fortune recently let me to swing by the Boston offices of Mullen, one of the nation's most successful and, frankly, interesting advertising agencies. The firm works with great brands like Panera Bread, Ask.com, Stanley, CSX Transportation and the Boston Bruins, among others. It also has developed quite a reputation as a social media savvy ad agency.
To explore why, I took a few moments to talk to Edward Boches, Mullen's chief creative officer (who also lists "chief social media officer" on his business card – very cool) about his agency's approach and successes.
SME-TV: An Ad Agency Doing Social Media Right from Jason Falls on Vimeo.
Boches hit on what I believe is the solution to bridging that gap between the traditional advertising creative approach and the world of social media. Including a developer/programmer or technical partner as part of each creative team, you expand the thinking to the digital world. Digital/Interactive professionals don't often have the creative chops to deliver the online equivalent of what traditional ad creatives can offline. Ad creatives don't often have the digital experience or acumen to reach the same. Until either discipline develops the other's capabilities, collaboration is the only way to get there.
Kudos to Boches and Mullen for seeing the world differently and doing something outstanding to deliver solutions for their clients. We could all learn a bit from the approach.
And a special thanks to Stuart Foster, a social strategist for Mullen and a frequent commenter and guest author on SME, for inviting me by for the visit.

Ever wondered why psychologists use inkblots? Would chicken entrails do as well? Or the tea leaves so rarely seen in our tea-bagged society? What's the theory?
The Swiss psychologist Rorschach invented the ink-blot technique. It still has a small and evidence-defying cult following. The idea is simple, but the interpretation of the "data" unreliable and complex. The ink-blot is called in the jargon a projective technique. The idea is that one projects onto the ink-blot shapes one's motives, needs, fears and the like which one cannot articulate--to oneself or others. Supposedly the skilled and trained researcher can do the correct reading. It can reveal suppressed and powerful emotions and motives.
Most of us have probably during adolescence been exposed to a party game projective technique. You are on a walk, and going through a forest. You come across a stream/river. Please describe it. Next to the river is a hut. Again describe it. Ahead of you is a road through the forest. What is it like?
The budding psychologist does the interpretation. Whatever you say (the river is deep, the river is shallow, the river has rocks) is deeply symbolic of our frustrated unconscious needs for sex, power, or domination. A simple game apparently says more about you than you know yourself. It is not only your cleverly hidden secrets, but things you don't know about yourself that appear to emerge from projective technique analysis.
The idea behind this technique is that people cannot, rather than will not, tell you your real needs, drives and fears. This is not a matter of will or ability.
We don't have sufficient insight into our real needs. Most of us know of individuals who genuinely believe they have a sense of humour. Everyone around them knows they don't. Whence the difference? Others can think they are caring and empathic when the evidence is that they are egocentric and disagreeable. There is considerable evidence that many people are simply not very self-aware as to their abilities, preferences, and impact on others.
There are two other more recent and scientifically more respectable projective techniques. The first dates back to before the war and is called the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT). It consists of twenty or so pictures. You are shown them one at a time and your job is to tell a short story associated with each. These are transcribed and coded for themes about need for affiliation, need for power, need for achievement, etc.
The first picture is a little boy looking at a violin. But what is your story? An unhappy little boy forced to go to violin lessons by a tyrannical mother when he would rather be playing conkers? A sad little deaf boy knowing he will never hear the sweet music of the violin? A triumphant little boy who has mastered a tune before his peers?
Then the next picture and so on. All are obviously from another era, and many rather beautiful. None is racy, but number 13 is most interesting. A women (possibly naked) lies on a bed/sofa shrouded by a see-through curtain; a fully dressed man peers out of the window. What is your version of events? Tell your story which will be very carefully content-analysed by an expert.
There is one other technique which has also done the rounds. It's called Sentence Completion. Strictly speaking it is only a partial projective technique because it is more transparent than either the Rorschach or the TAT. You are given, say, twenty sentences to complete. They may be simple like: "Most people's suffering is due to…"; "I wish I had never…"; "I am still extremely proud of…" to more complex short stories that require completion.
Critics of projective technique say they are deeply unreliable in two senses of the word. First, a person's mood seems to affect their responses, so they give rather different answers at different times. This cannot then give us a veridical picture of their profound, stable, deep-seated needs. Second, and more important, scoring is unreliable. Even two experts don't seem to agree on the "real meaning" of the output.
Scientists say that what is unreliable cannot be valid. So projective techniques inhabit a twilight world between cult and science; between old and new techniques; between the past and future of psychometrics.
But despite all this, one fact remains patently true. Getting at a person's motivations is difficult. Every manager wants to know what motivates their staff. They want to know the magic buttons so that they can press them. Most recognise there are wide individual differences. And the clever ones know that money and titles are but part of the story.
Motivation is about force and direction. Just as there are fundamental differences in libido – motivation or appetite for sex – so they are at work. Some people are driven. They always have been; they always will be. Maybe they are driven by being rather short or uneducated; maybe they are driven by a clearly preferred and successful sibling; maybe they are driven to fulfil long- suppressed and forgotten parental expectations.
The light can be bright or dim. Some people are more hungry than others. But for what and why? What drives people to try to make more and more money; more than they could ever spend; what drives them to repeat disastrous relationships again and again; why are people so obsessed by trivial things like job titles?
It is certainly true that many people cannot tell you. They can offer descriptions and explanations and may even be practiced in the art, but they ring hollow to the informed outsider.
A good counsellor, coach, or psychologist might help. Those with insightful, psychological mindedness can assist. Some seek insight; others avoid it. It is said that many comics shun analysts lest they take away that drive; their edge; their special power. Their very "raison d'être" is destroyed by self-insight into why they think and act as they do.
All very interesting, but how does this help the selector in the day-to-day business of trying to choose managers who are able and driven to achieve? Not much, alas. But it does quite strongly warn to dig a little deeper, to look for patterns and not to be satisfied with glib answers.

CSNNE.com Red Sox Insider Follow @sean_mcadam
ARLINGTON, Texas -- Adrian Gonzalez had gone the entire month of August without a homer, and, in fact, had just one homer since July 7 before Tuesday, dating back 146 at-bats.
But in the span of three at-bats Tuesday, Gonzalez swatted two homers -- the first ending an 84 at-bat homerless streak -- in the Red Sox' 11-5 win over Texas.
"It didn't matter," insisted Gonzalez of his homer drought. "I was getting on base, hitting for average and the main thing is we're in a good position to be in the playoffs."
Gonzalez said he had some good at-bats in Kansas City and felt his swing was starting to come around.
"Kansas City is a big park," he said. "I hit some balls good to left field that were outs on the (warning) track. I've been feeling better lately."
The second homer Tuesday was to the opposite field, which Gonzalez termed "my swing. If I can stay with it, that's when I'm going well. Hopefully, I can continue that."
The two-homer game was Gonzalez's second this season and 12th of the season. The second homer gave him 20 for the season, marking the sixth consecutive year he's reached that milestone.
As nice as the two homers were, Gonzalez was just as pleased with a single he had against lefty Darren Oliver in the seventh inning.
"I haven't had an at-bat like that against a lefty in a while," said Gonzalez. "I've been getting hits, but not in an at-bat where I battle and I'm able to stay through a ball and come up with a base hit like that.
"Hopefully, I can continue that swing and I can get on a little bit of a hot streak."
John Lackey, who gave up four runs in 6 23 innings, notched his 12th win of the season -- second-best on the staff -- and improved to 7-1 in his last nine starts.
"I thought he really pitched well," said Francona of his starter. "(He's providing) consistency. When you know what you're going to get, (it's great). This is Lackey. It took us a while and his ERA's higher (5.98) and it's going to be that way (because of his poor start to the season). But it doesn't mean we don't have the pitcher we want."
"I felt pretty good," said Lackey. "My stuff's been good the last month or so and my arm's feeling good. This is a tough place to pitch. Just to get away with a win is nice."
Lackey was given a 6-0 jumpstart by his teammates through the top of the third, but gave back three of those runs in the bottom of the third on three hits, a bases-loaded walk and two sacrifice flies.
"Five or six runs is not a big lead in this joint," joked Lackey. "But I'm feeling pretty good. I'm winning some games and contributing. That's always nice."
Outfielder Josh Reddick, who had been hitting as high as .360 a few weeks ago, has slumped in recent weeks and went into Tuesday's game hitting .293.
On the current road trip, Reddick was just 2-for-14. Since Aug. 1, Reddick was hitting just .214 with an OPS of .606.
"I don't know that he was ready to be a .360 hitter," said Francona. "Guys play and get hot, then the league makes their adjustments. Now, it's his turn. I think some pitches that he hit earlier, he's been fouling back. And he's left the strike zone a little bit. But he's still swinging pretty aggressive.
"If he swings at strikes, he's going to be fine. He's going to do some damage. He might not hit .360, but he's going to be OK. I just think . . . when you're playing once or twice a week, you might not get that (hard to hit) breaking ball. But when you're out there every day and you're racking up at-bats, you see it more often."
Francona said the Sox have had some internal discussions about Sept. 1 call ups.
Rosters will expand from the current 25 to as many as 40 next Thursday.
The Sox' situation is somewhat complicated by the fact that Triple A Pawtucket will be in the post-season and the organization would like some of the players to get a feel for the playoff atmosphere before being summoned to Boston.
In addition to activating Bobby Jenks and J.D. Drew from current DL stints, the Sox will likely call up shortstop Jose Iglesias, pitcher Junichi Tazawa, utilityman Drew Sutton, catcher Luis Exposito, lefty Felix Doubront and right-hander Kyle Weiland.

JUNIOR Brown believes Oxford United will be inspired by a big crowd this afternoon as they host Portsmouth.
The attendance at the Kassam Stadium will be swelled by about 2,000 fans travelling up from the south coast, in what could be comfortably the largest away contingent for a league fixture at the ground all season.
United go into the game in urgent need of a good result, after starting the Sky Bet League Two campaign with three successive defeats.
Brown is fired up to make sure they do not end the day pointless.
He said: "It's been frustrating it hasn't quite happened, but we'll be even more determined on Saturday because it's a massive game.
"It's a great opportunity to set the record straight and give the fans something back – hopefully we'll get off the mark."
The prospect of a boost in attendance has got the winger buzzing.
"As a footballer you want to go out and do your thing in front of as many people as you can," he said.
"Although it's a business, we're here to entertain, so we want the fans to be excited in what they're watching so they keep coming back.
"It will be a big occasion for the lads, but I think we'll all thrive on it. It's what we play for."
The fixture sees U's head coach Michael Appleton come up against one of his former clubs, having spent 12 months at Fratton Park up to November 2012.
Appleton is unsure of the reception he will get from the away fans, but is adamant United are close to turning performances into points.
"I'll let people make their mind up and see what happens, but my focus is fully on Oxford United and continuing to progress on the field," he said.
"I said to the players after the game on Tuesday (a 1-0 defeat at Morecambe) that someone very soon is going to take a hiding.
"It might not necessarily be Portsmouth on Saturday, but it is going to happen.
"I'll take a 1-0 now, put it to bed and move on to the West Brom game, but let's see what happens."

You are here
Dear John for Rural P.O.s
There it was on the bulletin board – right next to the ham ball supper poster, just below the lost dog flyer, and beside the missing persons bulletin: Notice of Proposed Closure.
The post office in Pilot Mound, Iowa, is one of three post offices in my seven-town school district under review.
The U.S. Postal Service reported a $3.1 billion loss in the third quarter. As a result, 3,700 U.S. post offices are on the chopping block, with a potential loss of up to 35,000 jobs. Most offices generate less than $27,500 in annual revenue.
Rural towns have been buffeted for decades by the straight-line winds of loss and consolidation that have swept away businesses, services, and schools. It appears that the local post office is next.
I attended the recent public meeting, along with about 70 other people in Pilot Mound, to discuss shifting postal services to a town 14 miles away, a round trip of 28 miles.
The postal representative assured us that rural America is not suffering the brunt of these closures. After all, urban post offices are being closed, too.
One resident raised his hand and asked if urban residents had bus service to the nearest post office. Well, yes, of course, she conceded. So maybe it would be harder on rural America after all?
The shortfall is tied to plummeting mail volume, a weak economy, and mounting retiree health and pension benefits. I understand the first two factors. The third is the result of a 2006 federal law requiring the U.S. Postal Service to prefund retiree benefits. To date, the post office has overpaid $7 billion into the retirement system.

During the recently held RSPA RetailNOW, a conference dedicated to retail IT resellers and software developers, I heard numerous times about how physical security technology -- specifically IP video surveillance -- is something that retail-focused solutions providers should be adding to their line cards. These statements came from attendees (retail VARs already having success selling IP video), as well as speakers and panelists participating in the education sessions at the event.
Hearing such advice makes me smile because it perfectly aligns with what we, as a magazine, have been seeing with our readers. The bottom line is that retail VARs have a very unique IT skill set which dovetails perfectly with the latest IP camera solutions. Traditional security dealers don't have that retail/POS (point of sale) skill set.
Surveys we've run indicate that more than 7,000 of our readers plan on adding IP video to their line cards within the next 12 months. Additionally, a retailer-focused study showed that 1 in 5 retailers plans on buying a new camera system within 12 months -- with more than 80% saying those solutions will be IP.
What all this means is that smart camera manufacturers, who realize that future IP camera sales will be going through IT integrators more than traditional security installers, are now looking to recruit and educate integrators and VARs.
If you're currently on the fence about adding security solutions to your line card, the time to make a move is NOW. Prices continue to drop, the technology gets easier to use, the technology can do more, manufacturers have great training available, your customers are ready to upgrade, margins are higher, and the old school installers can be outclassed by your networking background and niche retail knowledge.
What are you waiting for?

Advanced Modeling of Packet Switched Network in WAP
Computer networks form an essential substrate for the multitude of distributed application which is now an essential part of modern business and personal life. It is important to optimize the performance of computer networks, so that users can derive optimum utility from the expertise in network infrastructure. Most networks perform well when lightly used, but problems appear when network load increases. This loss of network performance when a network is heavily loaded is called congestion. Wired networks are becoming an integral part of the Internet. Unlike wireless networks, random packet loss due to bit errors is not negligible in wired networks, and this causes significant performance degradation of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).

Zombie-free survival MMO Nether coming this fall
Phosphor Games is developing an urban-themed massively multiplayer online survival game called Nether, announced today.
The PC title is set in a post-apocalyptic future — zombie-free — and is inspired by DayZ. Players must survive while figuring out what happened that changed mankind. They can work together, forging alliances, or venture alone. Either way, their actions and decisions shape their stories in persistent online worlds. Up to 64 players can fit on a server at one time to help strike a balance between isolation and community.
"Prey or pray," the tagline reads. The game's title refers to its original monsters, which hunt by sound and possess deadly supernatural abilities.
A closed beta is planned for the fall. Sign-ups are open now.

Custom Truck Editorial - Blessings And Beatings - And Finally
Who needs movie magic that only lasts a couple of hours when we have magazine magic that lasts years and years? This month I'm providing you with a glimpse of how talented our art director, Rob Munoz, is. Take this picture, for example; it's the result of very little work but it was a means to an end. Coordinating two trucks for one cover meant flying to Houston, pre-planning a meeting date and time, finding an appropriate location, and attempting not to get thrown out of our downtown spot. Because of all these limitations, I had to make do with what we had and hope Rob could save me later. He did, and the cover is a true testament to his talent and superior knowledge of Photoshop. I hope you enjoy this glimpse behind the scenes of our magazine magic.
Special thanks to Julio and Matt for making this cover happen. We won't forget your patience.

The Supreme Court reached a decision today on if same-sex married couples should receive spousal benefits.
The 1996 Defense of Marriage Act that denied benefits to same-sex couples was ruled unconstitutional, with the Justices split 5 to 4, reports The Washington Post[1].
The ruling doesn't touch on same-sex marriage as an American right, but the subject is likely to be brought to the Supreme Court in years to come.
"We may in the future have to resolve challenges to state marriage definitions affecting same-sex couples," John G. Roberts, Chief Justice of the United States, wrote to The Washington Post. "That issue, however, is not before us in this case."

" Brand: Sainsbury's / Type: Breads / Cakes "
I usually buy the New York Bagels but when I saw that Sainsbury's had started doing their own I thought they were worth a try.
They aren't actually much cheaper than the New york ones. These are £1.00 for 4 and the new york ones are about £1.20 for 5. I suppose it depends on how many you want. For a 2 person household though 4 is plenty and it saves arguments over the 5th one, and a saving of 20p every week, soon mounts up.
I actually found the texture of these better than the new york bagels, but only slightly, I think bagels are all pretty much the same. These seemed to be less sticky feeling on the outside than the new york ones though.
They were very easy to cut in half, and didn't leave much mess, and they toasted beautifully, (in a toaster not under a grill).
These tasted just as good as the new york bagels, but maybe a tad less sweet, I find that new york bagels have a bit of a sweet tang to them, so I actually prefer these ones.
Sainsbury's does it again with their quality products.
