It's been attributed to technology, lifestyle changes, stress and a whole host of other causes, but sleep deprivation is a very real problem that has greatly reduced the quality of life for the vast majority of people. Some reports suggest that up to 93% of India's population may be sleep-deprived.
In recent years, and with the increased attention towards the science of sleep, we have come to understand that sleep itself can be classified into many different stages, but the ideal we should be aiming for every night is Stage 3 Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep. This is because it's during this stage that the production of delta waves occurs in the brain.
In case you're wondering what we're talking about, read on to find out how to control the output of these waves, what they're useful for and why you shouldn't be neglecting them.
The Science Behind Delta Waves
From a scientific viewpoint, delta waves are nothing more than a high amplitude brain wave with a frequency of 0.5 and 2 Hz. Discovered in the early 1900s by a man named W Grey Walter, these brainwaves are associated with the very deepest levels of sleep, relaxation, and peace of mind. Otherwise known as slow wave sleep, this consists of at least 20% delta wave sleep, and it is vital that we reach this stage on a regular basis.
Why Do I Need Slow Wave Sleep?
Slow wave sleep is critical to survival. Here's why: The delta waves produced in this sleep stage help the brain recuperate, convert food into complex proteins that help the body's muscle-recovery functions, consolidate new memories and enable physical growth. Most importantly, delta waves ensure that all our involuntarily bodily functions – such as proper breathing during sleep, digestion and the functioning of our internal organs – are in-sync and in perfect working order. This is why it's crucial that we manage to achieve this stage of sleep.
Tips to Improve Your Sleep Quality
Maintain a healthy sleep schedule: Make sure you hit the bed early and get at least seven to nine hours of sleep daily.
Take a hot bath: Increasing your body temperature slightly before going to bed, whether that's by soaking in a tub or taking a shower, has been shown to increase the occurrences of slow wave sleep over the course of a night.
Exercise regularly: There's nothing like a prolonged and heat-inducing workout to ensure that delta waves are produced once you hit the bed.
Try meditation: Many sleep experts agree that meditation can greatly increase your chances of a good night's sleep.
Special diets can help: In the case of those who are lucky enough to be healthy sleepers, a very low carb diet – over the short-term only – could result in the increase of slow wave sleep and, consequently, delta wave production. This is likely due to the easier metabolism of the reduced fat content in a very low-carb diet.
Your Last Resort: Music Therapy
There's one other thing you could try to promote the occurrence of delta waves in your brain – listen to music. No, not just any music, but very specific music that operates at the same frequency as that of delta waves.
While the scientific community may be divided on whether this method is effective at all, there's plenty of anecdotal evidence that vouches for the effectiveness of this system. Here are some delta wave music tracks, specifically designed to help you produce more delta waves and enjoy perfect sleep:

Jeremih - N.O.M.A. (Not On My Album)
Posted August 4, 2014
Tags: Jeremih, Free Downloads
Jeremih has been making some of the world's most baby-makingest music for years now and he finally has a title (Late Nights) and release date (September 30) for his upcoming album.
Now that the album is locked down, so are the songs that didn't make the album, so Jeremih's letting go of a new N.O.M.A. (Not On My Album) project, featuring, you guessed it, seven joints that didn't make the final cut.
Juicy J makes the sole guest feature appearance on the project, with production coming from the likes of Vinylz, Key Wane and many more.

Confident that it will win the auction for Fisker Automotive's remaining assets, Hybrid Tech Holding LLC has recruited former Ford Motor Co. executive Martin Leach. Leach, who served as the former president of Ford's European operations, will provide added weight to Hybrid Tech's management. "I've been working with them for months on a business plan and they have very clear intentions," Leach told Reuters.
Fisker filed for bankruptcy protection in November 2013 and has not built its signature Karma sports car since 2012, no thanks to technical glitches and a cash shortage. Hybrid Tech, which is an affiliate of Hong Kong tycoon Richard Li, has offered $55 million to acquire Fisker, while a unit of Chinese company Wanxiang Group placed an initial bid of around $35 million.
Wanxiang, however, has proposed that Fisker creditors will receive a 20 percent stake in the new Fisker operations. Wanxiang has also argued it could better manage Fisker's assets.
The carmaker's creditors have sought to file a case against Li, who was a former Fisker board member and investor, and other directors as well as insiders for allegedly causing the company's financial collapse. Leach is currently chairman of Magma Group, an automotive consultancy he founded.
According to Leach, Hybrid Tech's first task after winning the auction would be to look after existing owners of Fisker cars. "Then we've got more than 400 suppliers that need to be re-engaged to be able to restart production," Leach remarked. "That's a big challenge." According to Hybrid, it is exploring a partnership with Boston Power to supply batteries should it win the auction set February 12.

On Oct. 29, the HHS Art Club went to The Imperial Arts Center in Rocky Mount. The students were given a tour of the art galleries and they also participated in a ceramic workshop. Club members were given a cool opportunity to make a Clay Mug, have it fired and glazed just in time for the holidays.
Brennan Mims was the workshop teacher and did a wonderful job on educating the students on the properties of clay from a scientific and Artistic stand point. After a demonstration, students spent about an hour and a half in the ceramic studio creating the art piece.
Students were asked to assemble their "one of a kind" mug and add decoration and leave the mugs to be fired and finalized. Upon much anticipation, students received their mugs this week.
"This workshop was a great opportunity for club members because many of them do not get the opportunity to take art classes while in high school," Jennifer Jackson, art teacher, said. "Therefore, they tend to miss out on getting to "make things". The fact that we could have our mugs fired and glazed was also incredible. We do not have a Kiln at Hobbton High, but thanks to Mrs. Carla Taylor at Hobbton Middle, we are able to do small clay projects to be fired and be painted with Acrylic Paints. We are unable to do glazing because we do not have a kiln on site for use, and transporting the items back and forth is very time consuming for art teachers at both schools."

Update on Proposed Medical Laboratory Regulations & PUC Investigation and Rulemaking
Posted 8 months ago by Jeanine Swygman
This announcement has 1 attachment:
Proposed Medical Laboratory Regulations
The proposed changes to NAC 564 include expanding the types of healthcare professionals that can serve as an exempt laboratory director. Our very own NAPNA Communications and Membership Officer, Dr. Cameron Duncan presented public comment on March 10th from the viewpoint of an autonomous practice business owner to support adding APRNs to the list of providers who can serve as an exempt lab director. The regulation change was approved to allow APRNs to serve as lab directors to perform point of care tests. This change will negate the need and expense for a physician lab director. This has been an ongoing barrier to practice for our autonomous APRNs, especially in the rural areas.
The next step is waiting for final approval from the legislative commission for the date the change will take effect. We will keep you posted!
Upcoming Public Utilities Commission (PUC) Notice for Request for Comments and Notice of Workshop
Your NAPNA Legislative Liaison, Dr. Cindy Pitlock, presented public comment on March 21st to the PUC relative to amending NAC 704.370 Termination of Service: Postponement when dangerous to health (NRS 703.025, 704.1835, 704.210). This amendment will expand the types of healthcare providers (in addition to a physician or public health official) to include APRNs to certify that any termination of service would endanger the health of the utility customer or resident of the affected dwelling. This will remove yet another barrier to APRN practice.
There was no opposition to the amendment which would bring the current regulation into alignment with AB 170 (2013). There will be a hearing scheduled on this issue. We will keep you posted!

Wow, our Anderson's Bay School Production was nothing short of AMAZING! Congratulations to all the children for their tremendous efforts and wonderful performance. A sincere thanks to all the families, teaching and support staff members who put such a lot of effort into making this a success for our children.
Don't forget to keep an eye on our events section on the website for some images of that occasion.
As we launch in to the next three year term for the Anderson's Bay School Board of Trustees I would like to take this opportunity to formally thank and farewell our three members of the Anderson's Bay School who have stood down this year. Thank you to Nick Green, Paul Mulholland and Donna Smith for all your support, efforts and commitment to our school. We have been very fortunate to have had their support and presence on our Board, it has been an absolute pleasure working with them.
And in the next breath I would also like to welcome our newly elected Board of Trustees, Hayden Smale, Mark Baldwin, Simon Tangney, Stephanie Hall, Robert Kinney and Agnes Oliver. I thank you in advance for the your support and time and look forward to working with your newly formed Board of Trustees.
The past couple of weeks for our school have been extremely busy with some amazing experiences and opportunities for our children. In the week leading up to the production our children were presented with a range of experiences through whānau groups. Not only did this present a fantastic chance to be involved in a range of activities but it also presented our school with times to be working together with children of different ages and strengthening our community relationships. Again, I would like to express my appreciation to all of our family members who gave time and experience to make this week a success, and also to acknowledge the tremendous effort of our Teaching and Support Team in the preparation and implementation of this week ... and don't forget to check out our Events Page on the website to view some action shots of this week.
Over the past year our school has been working more and more within the Google Docs and Google Apps environment, especially with our Kōwhai and Tōtara Teams. All children have an "@andybay.ac.nz" login in and can access their Google account and documents for viewing, editing and sharing from anywhere. If you have not yet had a chance to see what your children have been doing in their Google space take a chance to sit down with them and login using their @andybay login by visiting https://accounts.google.com
If your child's classroom is using Google Classroom you can also access this through the instructions on this PDF document your child's login by clicking on the cluster of squares on the top right hand corner of the Google screen ....
It was almost perfect conditions for a "mid-winter" cross country event yesterday, as our children got themselves a little muddier taking part in the Annual Anderson's Bay School Cross Country. It was wonderful to see so many of our families cheering on the sidelines and sharing in the joys and challenges of this event.
Parent/Teacher interim interviews are scheduled for Thursday, 7 July beginning at 2:10 p m for parents of Years 3 – 6 children. These interviews are an important opportunity for parents and teachers to meet to discuss specific academic and/or social objectives for the year ahead.
Parents of children in Nga tipu, R1A, R3, R4 and the Y2 children in R7 receive written reports and an interview invitation every 20 weeks. If you have recently received a report you will have been invited by the class teacher, to book in for an interview on the 7th July.
If you have not received this invitation please wait for your child's next report to come home, before arranging an interview.
We will be using a secure, web-based service, which allows parents to book an exact interview time using any computer connected to the internet.
Bookings for interviews will be open from Thursday, 23 June, and can be made at the website http://www.schoolinterviews.co.nz using the school code m4ur6. Although the vast majority of parents will be able to access the web from a home computer, a friend's computer or a workplace computer parents may telephone or call into the office over the next week to arrange bookings through the school office
Children will remain at school on the Wednesday until the normal time of 3pm.
Over the weekend there have been big changes at school. Thanks to the generosity of Kev Jarvis and his team and Brent and Julie Patterson (and their supportive children) the Playscape is taking off! The ever present Geof Markby and Lizzie Potter, along with the team above, started clearing the sand pit area ready for landscaping the Playscape. The children were especially excited to have the gym bars re-located and are looking forward to using the long jump pit on the top field. Watch this space for more exciting Playscape updates!
Following the last PTA meeting, we were able to confirm the start with the construction team for the Playscape and we are expecting over the coming weeks to see a hive of activity and changes to that landscape developing. Our very own Anderson's Bay School PTA have been instrumental in supporting the fundraising for this project. This is a project that does not attract Ministry of Education funding and must be funded entirely from outside sources. To date we have been very fortunate to receive support from our PTA (via our community fundraising contributions ...thank you!) and also The Community Trust of Otago, giving us the opportunity to get started on the first 2 stages of this 3 stage project.
For all of our Years 3 - 6 children Interim Reports will be coming home next Friday, setting a foundation for our Interim Parent Teacher interviews the following week. For children who have been at school for up to two years (80 weeks) the Anniversary Reporting schedule for After 20 weeks, After 1 Year, After 60 weeks and After 2 Years continues to be followed and interviews will also be arranged around that schedule.
Class and group photos of our fantastic production are now available for purchase.
Photos can be viewed on the school website. All photos have been numbered, so you can choose which ones you like of each class. There are multiple images of each class to choose from, so please carefully select your photos, and fill in the order form carefully. Do not just select your child's room number.
All photos will be printed 6x8.
The cost is $2 per photo.
Please fill in the order form below, and return it with the correct amount, to the school office. All orders must be in by Friday 1stJuly.
Over the last two terms we have been extremely fortunate to have Mal Parker working within our school as our School Caretaker, during Miguel Rodriguez' absence. On behalf of our School I would like to extend our appreciation to Mal for all his hard work and commitment, it has been a pleasure having Mr Parker as part of our school team. For the final two weeks of this term we are looking forward to welcoming Mr Rodriguez back, following his return from shoulder surgery, and are excited to have both Miguel and Mal working as Caretakers, within our school for these two weeks.
It has been fantastic seeing so many of our chocolate fundraising funds being returned over the last week. Please get these back to us as soon as possible. Please have these returned to the office by Thursday 30th June. Also, if you have any unsold boxes, please return these to school, as we can re-distribute these for sale. Don't forget that the proceeds from our fundraising is currently going towards supporting the wonderful Playscape development. Thank you for your support.

Measles update
You may be aware there is currently a measles outbreak in New Zealand, so far mainly affecting communities in the North Island.
This as a timely reminder to check your child's vaccination status and ensure they are up to date with their vaccinations. Please let your school or early childcare centre know your child's vaccination status, if you haven't already done so. They will require written evidence of which vaccines your child has had. You may also use this as an opportunity to review the vaccination status of your whole family.
Two MMR vaccinations provide the best protection for measles, and the vaccine is normally given at 15 months and 4 years of age. The MMR vaccine was not on the childhood immunisation schedule until 1990. That means many adults and parents may not have received the required 2 doses of MMR and are encouraged to contact their practice nurse to discuss catch-up MMR. If you are unsure, you can check with your GP or your Wellchild book for your vaccination history. Catch-up MMR is available for all children and adults who have not received their two MMR doses on today's current schedule.
If a child becomes sick with measles at your school or centre, children that are not considered immune to measles will be excluded.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact your public health nurse, practice nurse, or visit:

Don't forget that we have a disco and mufti day planned for next Friday, 1st July. The Rata Team are running their disco during the afternoon, at school. All Rata Team children are encouraged to dress up in the Kiwiana Theme clothing. Kōwhai and Tōtara Team children will be having their disco from 6:30 - 8:00 pm and also have a mufti day during the day on Friday. Please don't forget to bring along a gold coin donation on Friday for the mufti day.
There is an opportunity for the organisation of a second family ski trip. If you are interested in taking on the role of organising this trip, on behalf of our Anderson's Bay families, please contact Laurence Potter, on 022 1600 515 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
Although the image below may seem like a very distant memory or something that couldn't possibly be on the horizon, given our recent amazing weather conditions, I am aware that these conditions could move into winter conditions very quickly, in the not too distant future. On occasion, schools may have a late start or closure for inclement weather, this could be for snow, ice or, in the case of last year, flooding. Although at times the conditions around Anderson's Bay may not reflect the road conditions for some of the other major roadways in Dunedin, decisions for late starts or closures are made as a "blanket decision" for all schools in the Dunedin area, taking into consideration the need for staff and families at schools to travel across the city. Decisions to have a late start or closure will be notified on Classic Hits 89.4 FM. As soon as we receive notification of a late start or closure an email will be sent to all families and a note will be put on the home page of our www.andybay.ac.nz school website.
As you will be aware it is important that we are able to account for any child's absences from school. As part of our record keeping requirements for the government we are required to code and identify the reason for a child's absence or lateness to school. Can we ask that if your child is absent from school that you please leave a message, before 9:00 am, on our absences voicemail by calling the school office on 454 4413. In this message can you clearly state your child's name, their classroom number and the reason for their absence, it is also helpful if you can leave a contact phone number, in case we need to contact you back.

1st Amendment will be the excuse to leave it up, but it is disgusting that it was ever hung to begin with.

Jan 10, 17, 11:17 AM #6So we are ok with taking down war memorials and statues honoring the history of the Confederacy because they are offensive to some but it's ok to hang this picture on government property even though it's offensive to some.
Jan 10, 17, 11:18 AM #7
I'm sure there would be no outrage if some white student painted a bunch of blacks robbing and looting stores and it was hung up at Capitol.
Allowing this only allows more hate and the teacher should have discouraged the kid from painting this.
Cops and blacks are not the enemy. It's the people who allow this stuff to happen and encourage and promote it. This is not freedom of speech, it's freedom to cause hate.

The picture is beyond disgusting. I say the R's should leave it up and talk about it A LOT. Every time the D's pull garbage like this, they lose more House and Senate seats. More and more people in this country are just getting sick and tired of this non-sense...

Kathmandu, Sep 18 (UNI) Nepal Maoists said they will disrupt the polls unless republic is declared before the polls in the Himalayan nation on November 22.
Following the announcement of quitting the government, former rebels said the election was not possible due to the conspiracy of the palace.
Addressing the mass meeting of Maoists in Tundikhel, Maoists leader Baburam Bhattarai said they would boycott the polls if election was held without declaring Nepal a republic.
The Constituent Assembly polls was the demand of the Maoists when they joined the government a few months ago.
The government wanted the declaration of republic after the election. Almost all the major political parties, including the Nepali Congress, CPN and UML, have already said they would go in for republic in the CA election.
There is no possibility of revival of monarchy if the major political parties stick to their declared policy.
The election, which was scheduled to be held on November 22 to write a new constitution in the Himalayan Kingdom, has become uncertain with the decision of the Maoists.

With last week's agreed cease-fire in Gaza, there's temporary peace in the Middle East. But in Miami, another battle is boiling.
This past week, the Florida branch of ANSWER (Act Now to End War and Stop Racism) launched a campaign to get Miami Police to drop the felony battery charges against an Islamic Bonita Springs veterinarian picked up at a recent Miami protest.
A few Sundays ago, around 3 p.m. on Biscayne Boulevard, the bearded, NBA-player-size doctor found himself pushed up against a cop and a heavy-set woman in a mosh pit of angry protesters. Signs bobbed up and down, red-and-green flags waved, and then, somehow, the burly 42-year-old found himself on the wrong side of the law.

The way Miami Police officers tell it, Riadh Atmani, who works for the humane society and is the director of an Islamic nonprofit, grabbed the cop "and [the officer's] prisoner" and pulled them into the crowd. The report notes that afterward, Atmani "hit [the cop] in the face" and "broke the sergeant's glasses." The cop then arrested Atmani on felony assault charges that could put him in jail for up to 15 years.
ANSWER spokesperson Emmanuel Lopez contends Atmani was helping a female protester who was being "manhandled" by the sergeant. He says the officer then got knocked into Atmani's backside. "The only reason they arrested him is because he looks large," Lopez says. "He's actually a lighthearted, respected community leader. If anything, he was protecting the woman."
Atmani would say only that the police report was "one-sided." He has no Miami-Dade criminal record.
Lopez is now collecting video footage of the tiff, and the group has hired lawyers. "The charges are trumped up," Lopez says. "We're going to clear his name."

Stirring up a mix of classic modern pop, rock and soul tunes into a fun Neo Vintage party soundtrack- vocalist Lorraine Gervais belts out over the backdrop of a mean ragtime/boogaloo/stride piano, standup bass, horn riffs, gypsy guitar & slammin drumbeats – creating a great party wherever they end up.
Lolo Gervais takes tunes of one style and then recreates them into roaring 20's, swinging 30's, New Orleans funky boogaloo style, swanky 50's & 60's, classic early Motown & beyond. Everything is fair game as they bend musical genres into whole new grooves that are hot to hear and fun to play.
Think Paula Abdul meets Louis Armstrong, or Daft Punk, Michael Jackson and Sting running headlong into a funky 1920's swing, Kenny Loggins grooving over an old New Orleans style beat, or Pharrel Williams, the Clash, and Train gettin all jazzed up into 50's swank with a touch of old school Jackson 5 or African Highlife grooves laid over the top. A great rhythm ride down the track of a party you want to go to!
Lolo Gervais began in 2015 after Lorraine Gervais & Jacob Aginsky, as kindred musical spirits who've separately worked alongside the likes of Zap Mama, Mavis Staples, Pink, Chris Isaak, Etta James, Taj Mahal, Charlie Hunter & Pete Escovedo, realized that they both gravitated towards taking tunes from one era and antiquing them into anything from classic swing to vintage funky boogie beats of all kinds. Under Jacob's music direction with Lorraine as frontswoman and a hot rhythm section behind them- the band goes off into musical territories where few others dare.

But for a long time he insisted he wasn't flying to see her and I had to drag it out of him. HE also lied in the beginning and tried to tell me it wasn't even her he'd slept with and he'd used her as a cover up. Huh?
He's a pathological liar, buthe is really trying hard to find out why he does it (it's his mother) and not do it anymore.
I just don't know if I keep pushing or just assume it was more than once and try to move forward. He said he will never change the story on how many times because it was "JUST once" as if that makes it OK. :(
I was lied to for 5 months about any sex. I was lied to for another 5 months about all the details including 3 previous A's. It was not until my fWS started reading here and reading "How to help your spouse heal from your affair", that she learned she had to come clean to move forward.

(a) Derive an expression for kinetic energy of a body having mass m and moving with a velocity v.(b) When velocity of a body is increased 5 times, what is the change in its kinetic energy ?(c) Two masses m and 2m are dropped from heights h and 2h. On reaching the ground, which will have greater kinetic energy and why ?
(a) For derivation see above questions.(b) Kinetic energy is given by the expression KE = 1/2 mv^2, therefore, if velocity is made 5 times KE will increase by 25 times.(c) More the potential energy more will be the kinetic energy of the body when it falls. Hence, the body with mass 2m will have greater kinetic energy as it has more potential energy.

Information Security:
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Has Made Progress, but Further Actions Are Needed to Protect Financial Data
GAO-11-708: Published: Aug 12, 2011. Publicly Released: Aug 12, 2011.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6244
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has a demanding responsibility enforcing banking laws, regulating financial institutions, and protecting depositors. Because of the importance of FDIC's work, effective information security controls are essential to ensure that the corporation's systems and information are adequately protected from inadvertent misuse, fraudulent use, or improper disclosure. As part of its audits of the 2010 financial statements of the Deposit Insurance Fund and the Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corporation Resolution Fund administrated by FDIC, GAO assessed the effectiveness of the corporation's controls in protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of its financial systems and information. To perform the audit, GAO examined security policies, procedures, reports, and other documents; tested controls over key financial applications; and interviewed key FDIC personnel.
Although FDIC had implemented numerous controls in its systems, it had not always implemented access and other controls to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of its financial systems and information. FDIC has implemented controls to detect and change default user accounts and passwords in vendor-supplied software, restricted access to network management servers, developed and tested contingency plans for major systems, and improved mainframe logging controls. However, the corporation had not always (1) required strong passwords on financial systems and databases; (2) reviewed user access to financial information in its document sharing system in accordance with policy; (3) encrypted financial information transmitted over and stored on its network; and (4) protected powerful database accounts and privileges from unauthorized use. In addition, other weaknesses existed in FDIC's controls that were intended to appropriately segregate incompatible duties, manage system configurations, and implement patches. An underlying reason for the information security weaknesses is that FDIC had not always implemented key information security program activities. To its credit, FDIC had developed and documented a security program and had completed actions to correct or mitigate 26 of the 33 information security weaknesses that were previously identified by GAO. However, the corporation had not assessed risks, documented security controls, or performed periodic testing on the programs and data used to support the estimates of losses and costs associated with the servicing and disposal of the assets of failed institutions. Additionally, FDIC had not always implemented its policies for restricting user access or for monitoring the progress of security patch installation. Because FDIC had made progress in correcting or mitigating previously reported weaknesses and had implemented compensating management and reconciliation controls during 2010, GAO concluded that FDIC had resolved the significant deficiency in internal control over financial reporting related to information security reported in GAO's 2009 audit, and that the remaining unresolved issues and the new issues identified did not individually or collectively constitute a material weakness or significant deficiency in 2010. However, if left unaddressed, these issues will continue to increase FDIC's risk that its sensitive and financial information will be subject to unauthorized disclosure, modification, or destruction. GAO recommends that FDIC take two actions to enhance its comprehensive information security program. In commenting on a draft of this report, FDIC discussed actions that it has taken or plans to take to address these recommendations.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDIC's Division of Resolutions and Receivership (DRR) instituted a Shared Loss Agreements IT Control Environment Project. The project plan for this project was completed on June 30, 2011. As part of the project, DRR planned to (1) document the IT controls over the year-end valuation process, and (2) conduct reviews of key IT resources supporting the loss share business processes. FDIC also took actions associated with the loss-share estimation process by assessing and mitigating risks, managing and controlling the configurations of programs and databases, evaluating the effectiveness of security controls, and ensuring that data and programs can be recovered after a disruption.
Recommendation: To enhance FDIC's information security program, the Acting Chairman should direct the Director of the Division of Resolutions and Receiverships and the Chief Information Officer to develop, document, and implement appropriate information security activities in the loss-share loss estimation process, such as assessing and mitigating risks, managing and controlling the configurations of programs and databases, evaluating the effectiveness of security controls, and ensuring that data and programs can be recovered after a disruption.
Agency Affected: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDIC took appropriate steps to obtain assurance that the external Web service provider's internal controls had been placed into operation and were operating effectively during calendar year 2011 (the financial reporting period). Specifically, in 2011, FDIC obtained a bridge letter from the provider, which indicated that there had been no significant changes in the design and operation of internal controls. In addition, on September 29, 2011, FDIC conducted a site visit to the provider's data center to observe security controls.
Recommendation: To enhance FDIC's information security program, the Acting Chairman should direct the Chief Information Officer to work with the external Web service provider to obtain a more timely delivery of the provider's Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) 16 report (previously known as a SAS 70 report), or to obtain other means of assurance of internal controls.

We've entered a time of turbulent social growth and change in the United States. We can dislike it all we want based on our personal morality or politics, but change is happening and it is, in point of fact, completely inevitable. However, do changes to the needs of the basic Joe or Jane really make as big of a professional impact as many seem to take it? Big DoD seems to be taking a lot of these changes in stride, and a fair amount of the fire over say, homosexual men and women serving in the armed forces. As marriage equality spreads across the U.S. these issues will ultimately be decided by Supreme Court Order once and for all in the very near future. So is marrying and having families in the armed forces really so alien? Does a gay couple really want anything very different from a straight couple? The wide answer is a resounding no, and it's more or less becoming the common feeling with the active forces.
The problem we're really running into from my ground eye-view is, with us veterans and retirees on the other side, we're all nasty, crusty and mean. Some of us are older than dirt; some of us are the salt of the Earth. However we are letting our comrades down. Every time a female Veteran is asked where her husband is when she walks into a Legion post or a VA hospital, that's a problem. If parts of our community violently scorn and reject our homosexual, trans, and even female brothers and sisters, that's a problem. These days there are already high casualties amongst our ranks just as Veterans - from mental wounds sustained in combat, the stresses of the civilian world, or whatever it may be. Harassment, marginalization and being cut off and left alone are certainly well known vectors for life ending drastic measures. These measures are not something we as a group can allow to happen for any of us.
Even if you can't get past that you sure wouldn't leave any of them on the other side of the defensive fortifications, exposed and alone to their fate, that's what we do when we exclude, expel and otherwise eject our brothers and sisters from our communities. They might get by…one group or another will pick up the bag - or not. Shouldn't we be there first though? If that one gay guy from motor T did a ride along, and got blown out of his turret, are you going to jump for him and pull him into the Humvee so Doc has a shot at keeping him alive long enough for a CASEVAC bird to get there? Would you hesitate, if they were the ones looking at you, needing a brother or sister to save you? I don't presume to speak for Chief Beck, or any trans or homosexual service member, but based on her record, based on the people I know, they wouldn't even blink. Because that's what family does for family. If you wouldn't do that for someone wearing the uniform, no matter what their deal is, maybe you need to reconsider what brotherhood, camaraderie and standing together, being willing to fight and die for each other without a word of reservation means to you. You won't stick out your hand or hesitate to fight back against the enemy within that is slaughtering so many of us. Are you really my brother or my sister?
It's not about beliefs. It's not about morality. It's about saving lives and standing together. It's just us. We're cut off and alone, and only we can help and save each other, and we have to do it without hesitation or restriction, without forcing people out of our special clubhouses. We are the special club. Why do you need more of a qualification than honorably serving, just like the rest of us? Is it right to remember our fallen by declaring a small group of us, who did nothing different than any of us, don't count?
Semper Fidelis.

Welcome to our home, Casa Costa Palmera, steps away from the Pacific Ocean on the wonderful sands of Playa Grande, Costa Rica. Nestled in the coconut palm trees, built on the sands of the beach, Casa Costa Palmera (sleeps 13) is a vacation home that will leave you breathless. Travel + Leisure Magazine rated Playa Grande in the top 30 as one of the best beaches on earth. Casa Costa Palmera just so happens to be exactly 40 paces away from where the picture was taken for the magazine. Can swim and surf right outside the house. NO volcanic rock obstructions which limit water activities at other nearby beaches. We are located in Playa Grande 200 meters north of the Hotel Las Tortugas.
Costa Palmera has one of the best beachfront views on the entire coast. Whether you are coming to the gorgeous Central American country of Costa Rica for a great adventure or to get away from it all, we can accommodate you. The amazing hand crafted woodwork and the beautiful white granite counter tops inside this 4 bedroom beach home will truly make you feel like you are on a vacation for the memories. Our home is one of a few homes with a privately built-in swimming pools on the entire Playa Grande coastline, consisting of a swim up bar for the ones looking to lounge. Excellent maid service is included daily. We provide linens and beach/bath towels also included.
Cooking is available at an additional cost. Teo, a private masseuse can be hired and massages performed right on the beach.
Unlike many vacation properties, Costa Palmera is open and airy, doused with a contemporary touch in the interior of the home. This 4-bedroom beach house has furnishings in every room, along with state of the art air conditioning in all rooms. The kitchen and dining room face out towards the ocean leaving for an alluring view of the Pacific Ocean and magnificent sunsets at dusk. The house is equipped with wifi, making it possible for one to accomplish their daily tasks at work while basking in the sun and enjoying their tropical get away.
Also known as Las Baulas National Marine Park, Playa Grande is a sanctuary for the leatherback turtles whom every year return to the shoreline to lay their eggs. Because the beachfront is nationally protected, it is one of the cleanest beaches in the country. The shoreline is also relatively flat, making for a great place to take your shoes off and go for an evening walk after dinner. Whether you're on a honeymoon or a surprise birthday vacation, Costa Palmera is fully equipped.
Known for its consistent world-class surf, Playa Grande is a surfer's paradise. The winds are frequently off shore making for well-shaped waves and great surf. Unlike many prestigious surf breaks, the flat, sand-bottomed beach of Playa Grande makes it possible for surfers of all skill levels to have a great time. Surf lessons are just a phone call away right out in front of the villa, and there are boogie boards and foam surfboards available on the premises for residents of the house to use.
The things to do are left to the imagination to explore, including golfing, horseback riding, rain forest excursions, volcano tours, ATVing, fishing, sailing, and much more.
With the Playa Flamingo to the north and the quaint beach town of Tamarindo a few miles to the south, Playa Grande is at the epicenter of the Guanacaste. Tamarindo has a great nightlife on weekends and is a great place to have lively evening with friends and family. There are a few family owned restaurants near Costa Palmera, along with a fully equipped surf shop to rent surf boards and/or purchase apparel and many other items.

This VRBO partner has demonstrated and is committed to fast response times, the best rates, and a great traveler experience.
Traveled to Costa Rica in June 2003. I was overwhelmed by the many different adventures in various diverse regions of the country. I decided to purchase in Playa Grande because I find this to be one of the most peaceful and beautiful spots in the world.
Shawna Mullen purchased this house in 2005
This property offers a comfortable, relaxing, private, beachfront location. I love all the natural wood in the house, the sounds of native birds and the smell and sound of the salty ocean.
Private gates, indigenous woods used throughout the home, pool. Our staff, Maria and Orlando have been with us since owned and they are terrific. Shawna, our property manager will take care of our clients needs from airport pickups to and from the house, car rental, stocking the refrigerator with food and beverages before arrival, scheduling excursions, restaurant reservations, messages on the beach as well as surf lessons in front of the house and more. Our house and amazing staff bring many clients back every year.
Perfect for family reunions, girls and guys getaways, honeymoon, wedding, executive retreats, surfing vacations, etc. All ages will enjoy.
Don't know that I can find the words to describe how special Casa Palmera and Costa Rica are. It's almost like being in the movie lost or Jurassic Park because its truly majestic. We flew to Liberia airport and Shawna arranged for a transport to the house. Transport was a nice air conditioned van and was $85 dollars and we gave a $30 tip. The driver stopped at a store so we could pick up a few things. We opted to pay to have Maria cook breakfast lunch and dinner so she did all the food shopping and we just paid for the food and her preparation fee. Her food was amazing and we were very happy we did that. We loved Maria, she is very kind and was very accommodating. She prepared all of our meals, did the dishes, laundry, made our beds and kept the house neat and tidy. She speaks Spanish so we used our google translator and had no trouble at all communicating with her. We had 3 couples and each couple tipped Maria at the end of the week. We arranged our entire trip thru Shawna and she was very patient and responsive. We emailed more questions than the average traveler would and she was very professional and informative. She speaks both Spanish and English and this helped us when we wanted to make reservations or book excursions and the person on the other line only spoke Spanish. Shawna took care of this for us. The house is set up perfectly with each of the 4 bedrooms having their own bathroom. They also provide beach towels, hair dryers and purified water. You are literally 5-10 steps to the beach. The beach is enormous, with beautiful rock formations, tide pools, shells and a black sand beach a short walk away. The water is warm in the ocean and we had the beach practically to ourselves. There may have been 15 people on the entire beach during the weekday and that included the 6 of us. The sunsets were unreal!!! There is a woman who sets up a tent daily on the beach to provide massages. It was $45 1/2 hr and $60 hr deep tissue. She was very good! Our pool was private and great at night after the hot sun. Hotel Tortugas was a short walk down the street and had good food and amazing mango Margarettas. We went there for happy hour and appetizers and liked it a lot. We rented a car and were happy we did that. Driving on Costa Rica was fine. Recommend paying for insurance coverage Though to be safe. Went to Buena Vista Lodge for mud bath, hot springs, & zip lining and loved it. Don't hesitate booking this property, it's fantastic!!!
We just got back from our great vacation in this home. We were there a week and all 10 of us could have stayed much longer!! The location of Casa Palmeras is perfect for getting away from the busyness of our lives. We took walks on the beach daily and spent lots of time looking for shells, crabs and fish in the tide pools close to the house. It was a dream come true to be able to look at the ocean from the dining room table and living room. Our grandkids really enjoyed the swimming pool when they got tired of the beach. We had Maria cook several meals for us. She is a great cook and tried hard to be accommodating for several family members' food allergies. We always felt safe at night with Orlando guarding the house. The house manager, Shawna, always answered our myriad of questions very quickly. Costa Rica is a beautiful country with beautiful people.
We had a wonderful vacation on the beach at this lovely home. Shawna was great to work with coordinating the vacation. 2 families, 4 adults and 5 kids, plenty of room. Right on the beach, able to surf at 6AM and still able to just walk in and have breakfast. We did have Leti cook for us. Traditional Costa Rican food, no worry about planning or cleaning up afterward. Really made it a relaxing vacation. Truly the best location on the beach. Before 10 AM the beach is nearly empty with just some walkers. Easy 30 minute walk to the black sand beach (wear Keen's). Great beach to play on, fly a kite (sort of gusty wind),throw frisbee, play soccer or go for a run. A couple of bikes to borrow. 3 boogie boards to use. We rented surf boards and got lessons from Frijoles Locos and they were awesome. Massage on the beach right in front of the home. Lay in a hammock, take a nap and watch the sunset. We didn't have a vehicle, just took a shuttle from Liberia. We will return and would stay here if available.
Our dealings with CHristine (Owner) and Shawna (Manager) were easy, informative, caring and refreshing. The property lived up to and exceeded all our expectations from start to end of our excellent vacation. Perfect place to relax, play, explore, and just veg. We asked many questions and which were always answered quickly and never felt we were intruding. The property sector well maintained, the support staff of Housekeeper and groundskeeper always accommodating . The location is THE BEST and the beaches and surf never got old. We would return in a heart beat. Recommended for families and couples alike.
Thank you all for the best 40 th anniversary and family get tort her ever, we will relive our memories for many years to come.
Pura Vida !!!!! Linda and Bob
This is one of the nicest places I've ever stayed in. First off, it's on the beach and waking up every morning to a beautiful view was amazing and ending each day with a gorgeous sunset was even more amazing. The weather was perfect, there's sun beds and hammocks which we were able to relax on by the beach every day. There's also a massage lady out there daily who does a very good job.
Maria who comes in to clean every morning was so sweet, we used her for breakfast every morning and a few meals in the evening. I was there a shorter time than the other girls but the one fresh piece of fish with vegetables I had from her for dinner one evening was delicious.
The house is very clean and very spacious, there's 3 rooms with their own bathroom and a room that would be great for a few kids to sleep in, definitely a family friendly place. It's also in a very safe area and there's a guard on site at night which makes you feel even safer.
Close by there are a few good restaurants and good Happy Hour daily at Hotel Tortuga next door. It's a nice secluded and quiet area and the town of Tamarindo is just a short drive where you'll find restaurants, shopping and most of the day tours and adventurous activities are in this area.
I'd definetely come back to this house and highly recommend it for families, girls trip and for anyone looking for a trip of pure relaxation.
Considering this property in Costa Rica? Here are a few details for you to consider:
Location, location, location are the three rules of real estate and this property has it! Take three steps out the front door and you are on the beach. When the tide is out, this very quiet beach is about 100 yards deep, and 3 miles long. It's great for quiet walks on the beach to forget your day to day grind. After playing in the surf, take a short stroll down the beach to a local taco stand for chicken or beef tacos with very cold beer. If you want the faster pace and night life of Tamarindo, it's a two mile walk, or a 20 minute car ride.
We had four couples in our group. Each couple had a private air conditioned bed room with a private bath. There is a fifth half bath off the kitchen area. The property has a very private fresh water pool which feels great after spending time in the ocean. A full time maid (Maria) is included with the house so you have daily maid service. Also, Maria is a very good cook so I would recommend you hire her to provide breakfast and dinner. Wake up to fresh coffee, fruit, eggs, bacon, and the local favorite rice and beans. We purchased fresh sea food on a number of days, and Maria can prepare it to meet your taste (grilled, fried, etc., etc.).
OWNERS and MANAGEMENT COMPANY:
The owners were great. Their professional service began with arranging a new air conditioned private van to pick us up at the airport and drive us to the home. Before arriving, we provided a shopping list of food and beverages that we would like. All of the items were waiting at the house when we arrived! They also arranged for massages on the beach. It's extremely relaxing hearing the surf from the ocean as you get a message under palm trees on the beach. Ask any questions, and this team can give you good local advice and make the activity happen. A few of our activities included a sailing and snorkel cruise, golfing, tennis, horseback riding, girls shopping trip, etc., etc. Or just spend some quality time boogie boarding, or surfing with the equipment provided with this property.
If you want to spend time on a very private beach this property is for you. This home is a great vacation spot for a family, girl's or guys trip, or a getaway for couples.
Nature lover's delight. Located in the Las Baulas National Park famous for the nesting grounds of the giant leatherback turtles (Oct - March), nearby canopy tours, kayaking in the estuary, snorkel, diving and hiking, step out the back door onto our world famous surfing beach and relax and enjoy.

A recent government report reveals that the Americans have started to quit smoking. The report showed that the US smoking rate has dropped below 18% for the first time since last year. This means that there are about 42 million smokers in the United States, same as it was in 2012.
The recent survey was conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and released the results on Wednesday, November 26. The study showed that among the 42 million smokers were the less educated and the poor.
The US smoking rate has been stalling at about 20% for a few years, until it started to drop a couple of year ago. In a survey conducted last year, about 17.8% of Americans said they were regular smokers.
Medical studies show that smoking is the country's leading cause of illnesses. Smoking is responsible for most of the lung cancer and is the leading factor that causes heart attacks and other heart-related diseases.

You might be using a mix of PCs and plant floor equipment (human-machine interface, or HMI) from a variety of manufacturers, installed over many years. Your PCs might even include software from numerous developers, created on different operating systems, and using different versions. Put simply, the average plant floor today is highly inefficient, prone to failure and vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Today's manufacturing executives must recognize the benefits of increasing their plant floor's production efficiency. Focusing on efficiency leads to increased operational profitability with two excellent outcomes: plants can produce more at the same cost or produce the same quantity of products at lower cost. Imagine if your plant operators could repair hardware failures in minutes, or configure and test security patches using a robust standardized architecture, before they upload it to the production equipment. These are the types of advancements that only virtualization can help a modern plan floor provide. http://blogs.cisco.com/manufacturing/plant-floor-virtualization-a-transformative-technology/
