A theme we like to play with a lot is taking flavors you know and love and adding a twist…we want our food to be familiar yet interesting. Gyro Taco Salad is a good example of just that. We took the components of a traditional taco salad, but flavored it like a traditional gyro. Gyro spiced ground lamb (or any ground meat) over lettuce (plus any of your favorite veggies) and topped off with a fresh mint and cucumber guacamole AKA Tzatziki Guacamole. Wouldn't that just be a real Mediterranean fiesta?

Hazelnut, coffee, and maple together in a harmonious breakfast package. Take a traditional pancake, jack it up with some of this morning's coffee, mix in some crushed hazelnuts, and top with a few pats of butter! It's a great grain-free take on an old non-Primal favorite.
Now, should these pancakes become a staple of your diet, completely replace your morning omelet? No. Should you drown the pancakes in maple syrup? I wouldn't advise that. A little drizzle is probably more than enough. And for some people, perhaps too much. Know thyself.
But, these pancakes are perfect for certain occasions:
The rich flavors of bacon and mushrooms dominate this dish, turning riced cauliflower into a super-flavorful side. Cauliflower risotto is fantastic served with a main course of roasted chicken, salmon, or thick, juicy pork chops.
The recipe below is great without any additional ingredients, but if you're really craving comfort food then fatten the risotto up a bit. Generous amounts of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese or butter (or both) will do the trick. A garnish of fresh herbs like basil, parsley and chives add color and flavor.
As it turns out, Philly Cheesesteak is an amazing meal even if it's just Philly Steak. Meaning, no cheese sauce or bread included. Not authentic, but delicious none-the-less. You really can't go wrong with thinly sliced rib eye topped with caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms and peppers.
Philly Cheesesteak isn't about fancy seasonings and preparation methods. Salt and pepper is all you need. Sear the thinly sliced steak for only a minute, sauté the mushrooms and peppers until tender, and cook the onions until brown and sweet. Then pile it all high on plate – Philly Cheesesteak isn't about dainty serving sizes.
A bowl of tomato soup is delicious any time of year, for lunch or for dinner, for kids and adults. If fresh, super-ripe tomatoes aren't available then this recipe for tomato soup made from canned tomatoes is the best one to follow. This homemade tomato soup has a rich, pure tomato flavor and silky texture. Like a much-improved version of Campbell's.
A steaming bowl of tomato soup is one of life's simple pleasures. The fact that this recipe is so easy to make with such great results is an added bonus. The soup turns out best with whole tomatoes (not chopped) because they have a flavor that's most similar to fresh tomatoes. The quality of the canned tomatoes matters – choose a brand with a flavor you like and if you're worried about BPA, stick with jarred or a BPA-free brand.

Very good if not quite as great as Out Of Sight
By McClennan (424 reviews) from St Helens , 22 Aug 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
Hadn't seen this for a number of years and it could well be the most intelligent piece of film making that he's done. The dialogue carries the characters along with it and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this time round. The casting and acting are what separates this from other QT films, IMO, but it just lacks something and as illogical as it sounds, I think it could be missing just some more stylising.- Was this review helpful to you?

Waited fifteen years for a second viewing
By TheWatchman (749 reviews) from Suburbia , 13 Nov 2012I first watched Jackie Brown when it came out in the cinema back in 1997. And, like so many people at the time, I was unimpressed. I fell into that large group of people who felt it wasnt up to the violent/gory standards of Reservoir Dogs or the cleverly made-up standards of Pulp Fiction.
Now, fifteen years later, I decided to watch it again and see if my opinion has changed. Now Im not so blown away with the great Pulp Fiction, I thought I might be less biased.
Sadly, my opinion hasnt changed that much.
This time I was able to look at it as a stand-alone film, not just Pulp Fiction 2, yet, unfortunately, I still found it sub-standard.
Its two and a half hours long. And, for quite a lot of time, it really feels like it. Samuel L Jackson plays a similar (if not as cool/likeable) character as his one in Pulp Fiction and does his best to carry the show. Robert DeNiro is obviously a great actor of the modern age, yet he doesnt seem to come alive at all. He mainly sits on the sofa looking like someone whos come on his own to a nightclub and doesnt know whether he should leave or not. (despite participating in the films really only shocking and unexpected moment of the film). Plus the films titular character, Pam Grier, is as good as she can be and Bridget Fonda makes good eye candy for the lads!
The major gripe I have with the film is its constant use of over-wordy dialogue for scenes. Yes, we get to know the characters well through how they interact with each other, but its just too much. Each scene is dragged out for longer than it feels like it needs to be.
Sometimes films are re-released as a directors cut with added material. Jackie Brown is one film Id like to see a directors cut of which has been trimmed down to a shorter run-time.
Jackie Brown is not Pulp Fiction. It doesnt try to be. It does win points for staking a claim to being a film in its own right. However, the fact remains is that it just isnt as good as anything Quentin Tarrantino has done before it, or since.
Im glad I gave it a second viewing. Even though now I doubt Ill ever watch it again (even in another fifteen years time), I didnt feel like Id completely wasted the two and a half hours of my life. I just felt that there are better gangster-style films of the genre than this, despite its impressive ensemble cast.- Was this review helpful to you?

Started off with great expectations, became drawn out
By a customer , 12 May 2012The film started out promising and there seemed to be several plots going on by Jackie Brown playing police against villains, etc. Reminded me in a way of an Italian Gangster flick.
Quite a few interesting characters, Samuel L Jackson, Robert De Niro, Pam Grier, Bridgette Fonda, Michael Keaton, Chris Tucker.
I felt De Niro's character was weak, he could've been anyone. This film didn't do him any justice. Neither did Bridgette Fonda's role.
The film started to feel rather prolonged and dragged out. By the time 100 mins arrived I just wanted to get to the end.
Mostly entertaining, definitely a film you need to give your attention to or you'll miss some of the plot. Lots of twists and turns.
Worth a watch, but I won't be watching it again, one time only.- Was this review helpful to you?

Just needed a place to sleep before heading back home. Hotels.com suggested this hotel because it was close to my location and in my price range for two... queen beds. This staff was friendly. The staff tried to leave breakfast area open incase we needed to grab a bit before they close down the breakfast bar. That was thoughtful and a plus. Overall this hotel was average and accurately placed in the two star rating. Had I not been sharing the cost of the hotel room with another friend, it would not be worth the reduced cost of $76. 작성일: 2013.12.03, 작성자: D. RobertsonKilleen의

The United Kingdom Association of Cancer Registries (UKACR) was formed in April 1992 to give cancer registration a unified voice, bring about consistency and prevent duplication of effort.
In the early 1990s, the cancer registration system in the UK was evolving very quickly. Developments in information technology led to rapid changes in registration practices, and increasing demands for accurate and timely information were being made on the cancer registration system from external
bodies, such as the healthcare sector and scientific community. It was recognised that new uses could and should be made of registration data, including for medical audit and the quality assurance of healthcare. Coupled with this, was the widespread awareness of the need to improve the quality and completeness of cancer registration data, and of the opportunities to do so through the use of information technology.
All these changes highlighted the need for collaboration and the sharing of ideas between those involved in the collection and analysis of cancer registration data. Several groups were therefore formed to discuss and resolve matters of common interest. These brought together cancer registry staff and personnel from the Office for Population Censuses and Surveys (which subsequently became the Office for National Statistics or ONS). The longest standing of these was the Cancer Registries' Consultative Group (CRCG), which concerned itself with issues of data collection, including coding and data quality. It had representation from all cancer registries, and its members were mostly registry managers and others closely involved in the day-to-day business of data collection. The Cancer Surveillance Group (CSG) was set up
in 1989 to meet a perceived need for a forum bringing together those with an interest in the use of cancer data. It had an informal and open structure and membership, taking its members from epidemiologists and statisticians, as well as other registry staff. The Cancer Registries Information Technology Group (CRITG) brought together technical experts from the various registries. Education and training was another area of activity thought to be of such importance that it could justify the establishment of another group.
Although these groups proved to be very useful, it was recognised that there was still no coherent framework of organisation for cancer registration, leading to the strong possibility of duplication of effort and inadequate communication between the various groups. There was also concern that, with so many different perspectives and forums in which differing points of view could be expressed, the cancer registries might fail to speak with a united voice when, for example, making representations or giving advice to government. In order to address this, it was agreed that a forum bringing together cancer registry directors on a regular basis was needed. It was therefore proposed that a United Kingdom Association of Cancer Registries be established. Following preliminary meetings at which almost all of the UK registries were represented, the UKACR was brought into being on 2nd April 1992 in Cardiff.

Thinking of becoming a Welfare Officer?
Useful Information
As you know RESPECT is The Football Association's direct response to a clear message from the grassroots game.
We must improve standards of behaviour - on and off the field. Parental behaviour is one of the main reasons why young players drop out of the game. Poor behaviour by coaches, parents and players towards referees means that thousands of officials are dropping out each season.
RESPECT is aimed at helping us all to work together to change the negative attitudes and unacceptable behaviour on the sidelines and on the pitch. It's a long-term commitment. As a Club Welfare Officer (CWO) you have the chance to make a significant contribution to creating positive change.
The role of the CWO is key to ensuring that Respect is understood, taken on board by the committee, coaches/managers members and supporters.
In order to assist you with this role we have provided information on:
- The role of the CWO
- Help and support for you
- Making sure everyone knows who you are
- Safeguarding children is everyone's responsibility
- Training requirements for this role
- Welfare Officer FAQ's
RESPECT outlines for everyone from league official to player to parent to club official to coach and referee that a certain standard of organisation and behaviour is expected in football. RESPECT is all about creating a fun, safe environment and its core principles work in tandem with Safeguarding Children.

Viloria: 'Tyson' Marquez to end up like Segura
MANILA, Philippines – Brian "The Hawaiian Punch" Viloria is confident of victory against Mexican fighter Hernan "Tyson" Marquez when they face off for their flyweight title unification bout on November 17 in California.
The bout, which has changed locations and dates several times, will pit two of the top flyweights in the world for a bout that will unify the World Boxing Organization and World Boxing Association titles.
"I respect 'Tyson' Marquez," Viloria said in an interview with Fight News. "He is a young world champion on the rise, but it is still not his moment."
"There is no doubt it will be a great fight and it will not go 12 rounds," he added. "There will be a knockout, and it will be in my favor."
Viloria even guarantees that the fight against Marquez will end up the same way as his fight against Giovani Segura in December 2011.
That fight saw Viloria dominate the favored Segura, eventually defeating him via technical knockout in the eighth round.
"I have much more experience, speed and explosiveness. Marquez will suffer the same fate as Giovani Segura," Viloria promised.
Viloria is not concerned that Marquez is being trained by his former coach, Robert Garcia.
"I am not worried in the least. It has been two years since I have not been with Garcia, and I have changed my style and strategies considerably," he said.
"They in Team Garcia think they know me, but they are wrong. I have developed different instincts and talents that Robert never saw, and the day of the fight versus 'Tyson,' they will see," Viloria added.
But the Mexican is also determined to defeat Viloria, who has defeated 17 Mexican boxers in his career.
"I hope that Viloria shows up with great conditioning, a will to fight and to go toe-to-toe, so that way we can give the fans a great fight," Marquez said.
"But in any way he shows up, I am going to go after him and beat him. We are going for the unified titles and it's for Mexico," he added.

Do you get rewarded for printer ink?
In an ideal world, my printer would not run out of ink at the most inopportune times like when I need to run out the door or when I only have a few minutes to quickly get what I need.
Thanks to OfficeMax and Office Depot there are a few benefits to buying printer ink which might just soften the frustration of getting one of those empty ink cartridge messages.
Get the ink and toner you need, quick.
When in a crunch for time, it can be even more stressful to try to find a store that carries the brand and type of printer ink you are looking for. That's why Office Depot offers an "Always Low Priced. Always in Stock." guarantee. This mean that all national ink brands (i.e. Brother, Canon, EPSON, HP, Lexmark, Konica Minolta, OKI, Panasonic, Samsung and SHARP) will be in stock at your local Office Depot store or Office Depot will waive the shipping fee to get the ink to your home.
Plus, you can score double discounts when paying for ink when you present your Office Depot Worklife Rewards card (enrollment is free) and pay with discount Office Depot gift cards. As a Worklife Rewards member you'll earn 10% back on your rewards account and with discount Office Depot gift cards you'll save an additional 7%! That's a pretty steep discount for ink!
Recycle your old ink.
When your ink cartridges runs out, consider taking them to any OfficeMax or Office Depot store. Through OfficeMax's free MaxPerks program and Office Depot's Worklife Rewards program, customers receive a $2 credit (a la your free rewards card) to the respective store for any brand of used ink cartridges, up to $20 per month (or 10 cartridges). I love the idea of getting paid to recycle, don't you?
Redeem your rewards dollars on your next purchase and then pay for the remainder of the purchase with discount OfficeMax or Office Depot gift cards to continue the savings.
Stop just buying ink, and start getting rewarded by putting more money back in your pocket, too!

If this convention Hotel is given the ok by our wonderful city leaders can someone tell me how many conventions they plan to have per year.You would have to have a convention every weekend for this hotel to make economic sense for our hard working tax dollars to be used. I just cant imagine a corporation choosing Evansville over Louisville, St. Louis, Nashville, Indianapolis, Chicago there just isn't much going on in our town. I guess they could walk up and down the walkway or maybe go see our scenic riverfront or that beautiful casino Tropicana:):)Or visit that beautiful new landmark the Ford Cntr...I just have really almost given up on this city!!!!!!

Ask Berliners what they love about the German capital and some will talk about the joys of post-Communist freedom, others about Kreuzberg's throbbing nightlife, others about Friedrichshain's exciting young designers. Berlin can fill you with wonder, contemplating the future in the crystalline Reichstag and high-rise Potsdamer Platz, and with horror, revisiting the past at the Jewish Museum and remnants of the Berlin Wall. The nostalgic, the party lover, the trendsetter, today's Berlin is one city, many characters -- different every time you look but never looked at indifferently.
Thing to Do
Berlin is a monster-size capital, eight times the size of Paris. Plan wisely. First, head up to Norman Foster's panoramic glass-domed Reichstag (German Parliament), and join photographers for the obligatory twilight snapshot of the glowing Brandenburg Gate. You can spend days roaming Tiergarten park's lake-dotted woodlands and UNESCO-listed Museum Island's galleries, where Egypt's Queen Nefertiti hides. Trace Berlin's turbulent past at the Libeskind-designed Jewish Museum and walk the artiest stretch of Wall at the East Side Gallery.
Individuality defines free-spirited Berlin. Go beyond the big-name designers on stately Kurfürstendamm to its quieter specialty stores, like L. & M. Lee with its German-made porcelain and glass. Poke around hip Prenzlauer Berg and Kreuzberg for urban, young designers and quirky boutique shopping. The Hackesche Höfe's Art Nouveau courtyards make for a leisurely stop, with their upscale shops and people-watching cafes.
Nightlife & Entertainment
The fall of the Wall was the party of the 20th century, and even today Berlin still hasn't run out of steam. Glitzy 1920s cabaret lives on along Friedrichstrasse, while classical music rings out of Mitte's lavish concert halls like the neoclassical Staatsoper. Canal-side bars with alternative attitudes and industrial-style techno clubs draw revelers to Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain. Summer evenings are best spent chatting and sipping foamy wheat beer under chestnut trees in Prenzlauer Berg's Prater Garten beer garden.
Restaurants & Dining
Down-to-earth and sociable, Berliners love lazy brunches in Prenzlauer Berg's bohemian cafes and fun street food. Join the queue in muticultural Kreuzberg for mustard-slathered Currywurst (curried sausage), pan-fresh falafel and shawarma. Foodies dine at Mitte's Michelin-starred restaurants and enjoy French food by candlelight in Charlottenburg's intimate bistros. For a real taste of Berlin, feast (as Napoleon once did) on fat pork knuckles with lashings of sauerkraut at the wood-paneled 17th-century tavern Zur Letzten Instanz.

Why would anyone object to truth in labeling? Vehicles get safety ratings, tires speed and durability ratings so why not something which we ingest? UNLESS, of course, the manufacturers have something to hide. Those against true labeling cite costs as a reason to object, but wasn't that the same canard the auto industry tried to use to prevent seat belts, air bags, etc?? The cigarette cartel's opposition to warning labels?? Take the time to read Upton Sinclair's "THE JUNGLE" the 1906 expose' of the horrors of the Chicago meat packing industry. After reading it you'll have no doubt that truthful food labels are not a luxury - they are a necessity.

Continued violence in Syria will have to have consequences
Posted by African Press International on July 18, 2012
"If the Syrian authorities fail to stop the violence and comply with Kofi Annan's peace plan, there will have to be consequences," said Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.
The UN Security Council is expected to vote this week on a resolution condemning the violence in Syria and calling on the Syrian authorities to comply with Kofi Annan's six-point peace plan. Norway reiterates that it is high time that the Security Council agrees that if the regime in Damascus fails to comply with the plan, this will have consequences.
"It is therefore important that the Security Council agrees to impose sanctions on the regime in Damascus if the Annan plan is not implemented," said Mr Støre.
The Security Council is also expected to adjust and extend the mandate of the UN Supervisory Mission in Syria (UNSMIS).
The fighting in Syria continues to rage and the violence in Damascus has escalated during the past few days. The death toll has passed 17 000, tens of thousands have been tortured or abused, or have disappeared, and hundreds of thousands have been forced to flee their homes since the unrest broke out in March 2011.

(Delcam International Inc.: Windsor, Ontario, Canada) -- Delcam previewed the forthcoming version of its PowerINSPECT inspection software at the Control exhibition held in Stuttgart, Germany, May 5–8. This new release of the world's leading hardware-independent inspection software is scheduled for release in the summer and will include a range of enhancements to make it easier and more flexible to use.
The most obvious change will be a completely new interface for undertaking "simple" measurements. This will make it much easier to undertake basic tasks, such as measuring the distance between two points or two planes, or the centers of two circles, or checking the thickness of a section.
It has also been made easier to add or delete points during an inspection from a set of measurements defining any feature. Points might need to be added to collect extra data from a suspect area, while "rogue" measurements can be deleted to prevent them from affecting the overall inspection.
A number of improvements have been made to the ways in which data within geometric features can be handled. The attributes of each point making up the sequence will be able to be displayed separately, either as the renowned PowerINSPECT dots or as needles proportionate in length to the extent of the deviation. This will make it easier to see where the problems areas are, especially in bigger parts with large numbers of measurements.
It will also be possible to use individual points within multiple features. For example, two sets of points could be used to check the circles at the top and bottom of a cylinder and then combined to produce the inspection report for the cylinder itself.
Increased flexibility will also come from the new ability to display feature measurements as surface points for comparison with the CAD model. This will make it easier to spot errors when, for example, a circle is perfect in its own dimensions but is not in exactly the correct position on the part.
One simple enhancement that could save considerable time will be the ability to halt an inspection during the measurement sequence. This will allow the operator to produce a report as soon as the part is found to be out-of-tolerance, rather than having to complete the full sequence. It will be particularly helpful when inspecting more complex components in a production environment.
PowerINSPECT's easy-to-understand reporting has always been one of its most popular attributes. This has been further improved with the ability to display an image of the part on each page of the report showing just the measurements listed on that page. This will make it easier to analyze the results from large sets of data, for example, results collected with laser scanners.

Back in March, I wrote about reports that series creators Shawn Ryan and David Mamet were unsure whether they'd continue with another season of The Shield. Basically those guys had been working on a new show for CBS, The Unit, and if that had taken off, the two of them might not have had time to work on another season of The Shield. It looks like luck has prevailed, though, as Ryan has decided on continuing:
He's decided. It's coming back.
However, if you'd been led to believe that the 10 episodes currently in production would be available later this year … think again. Season "six," or "season 5.5" as it's informally been called, will now be delayed until 2007. Season "seven" won't even go into production until next summer. But truly — better late than never. […]
I can't say that I'm overjoyed by the Sopranos-like pace at which the upcoming seasons appear to be scheduled, but I'd rather that than not have the show continue at all.

Well, you cannot stay here, atleast not inside the game park area beyond the visiting hours so the question of staying here is just not there!!! Also there is no camping allowed here as you are not even allowed to get out of the vehicle you are driving in here!!! And no food allowed inside either!!! No feeding yourself or the animals inside the park!!! Stick to the road or tracks only and do not go into the wilderness for your own safety and that of others around you!!!

Tombstone Tuesday – Have you ever taken a memento from an ancestor's grave?
Yes, I ask this in a somewhat hushed tone. Before you identify me as a grave robber, let me explain.This all goes back to my g-g-grandfather George W. Lowery. You know, the Civil War veteran, and subject of every other post on this blog? Well his wife, my g-g-grandmother was Barbara Lowe Lowery. (I always thought it was pretty cool she only added two letters to her maiden name when she got married! Saved on learning to write a whole new last name!)
Anyway when I started researching this branch of the family and ventured to the cemetery to see their headstone, there was only one name on it. Barbara's. She died first, 15 months before her husband and apparently the kids never bothered to add their dad's name to the headstone. George was buried next to her, we knew that for sure from the cemetery and other records.
So my genealogy sister/buddy and I launched on a mission to get a headstone for our Civil War veteran ancestor. (You can get a free headstone from the government if your veteran doesn't have one. More on that in another post.) We succeeded in getting the headstone and we had it placed next to Barbara's.
Now when they dug the footer we were there. Why wouldn't you go when they're digging a footer at cemetery? As the backhoe dug right next to Barbara's headstone we were surprised to see there were bricks under it. We never thought about how a headstone was set over 109 years ago. The few bricks that were taken out to pour George's footer were tossed aside in a garbage pile.
Let me tell you, it only took a minute for my sister/genealogy buddy and myself to grab a brick. Not exactly the best family heirloom but it's all we have physically to connect to our g-g-grandmother. A brick from under her headstone!
Are you a grave robber too? Or do you have a wild ancestor memento? Let me know!
4 Responses to Tombstone Tuesday – Have you ever taken a memento from an ancestor's grave?
This is fabulous! What a great memory and conversation piece. Plus, it makes you sound kind of edgy… you grave robber you! Seriously though, it sounds like a wonderful thing to have. Very nontraditional, but something concrete that connects the generations. What a great find. Thanks for sharing.
Guess what…George Washington Lowery was also my Great Great Grandfather…. born in Franklin County PA. Moving to Ohio after the Civil War to the outskirts of Sandusky. He was in fact a Corpral with the 81st PA Infantry. I have a copy of his seperation papers from the Union Army. Certainly willing to share with you!
He is the father of my grandfather Calvin Tyler Lowe, Sylavnia Ohio and his children Lenoard Calvin, Grant…Wanda…and Theodore..
I have found records back to his parents in Virginia around 1803 as Susan was the mother of George. George's wife was named Barbara I do believe.
I would love to discuss and share any information that you have as I am only an hour away from the Adams County Courthouse, loaded with records, located in Franklin County here in PA.
Please reply and thanks in advance! -
Oh! That is wonderful! I would take something like that if I could in a heartbeat! I think it's great that you had a headstone placed for George too. I would like to do that for a couple of my ancestors that have no stone. They are ;not vets so the cost is a real issue! Thanks for sharing this story Cindy.

This place was not well maintained. It was primarily gravel and dirt and during high winds it was like a dust bowl. Couldn't get Wi-Fi, no night lights. Pull through not very long so had to disconnect my car. A little pricey, especially for what you get. We disliked it so much, we moved to another campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Friendly staff, entire campground is dirt with some gravel. The 80PSI water caused a few leaks and for the neighbor also. Had no cell service for any carrier, no WiFifrom the campground or from my Verizon Hotspot, and no NOAA weather radio reception. I have satellite so I don't know about antenna TV. There was good pizza at the store. The bathrooms are old and run down. There was some motorcycle noise from the main road. I came from Lake Powell area and was heading to Bryce, so I felt staying on the east side of Zion would make sense, except everything you do, including getting on the shuttle into the park, happens at the south entrance. That is where I will stay next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Price reflects some discount. No services, cell phone, TV, or internet--not even if you bring your own. It is at the opposite end from most of the stuff in Zion Nat'l Park. We chose this park because we were headed up US 89. The best part of the drive was the big horn sheep we saw on this side of the tunnels. Showers and restrooms were clean. Site had some gravel but more dust. Tree limbs in a lot of sites are a problem for big rigs. Staff was friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We called in advance due to some confusion as to whether there was an RV park or if it was just a hotel. The web site did not mention the RV park and it was also called the Mountain River Resort and the Mountain River Ranch but the phone numbers were the same. When I called I was told to call a different number. The person who answered assured me there is an RV park. I asked to make a reservation and she said "ok", then she changed her mind and said I didn't need one, there would be plenty of spaces. We followed the directions on the web site. When we arrived at the address it was the hotel, we were told the RV park was located 3 miles up the road. More confusion. We arrived, checked in: simple, give me your credit card, here's your receipt. No information or directions. We asked which space number and were told any empty space was ok. We then asked what time we needed to check out the following day and was told "oh anytime is ok". We drove across the road to the RV park picked a space, leveled our RV, unloaded the bikes, and started hooking up our electric and water when we discovered there was no water. After more confusion we were told to move to a space in the back two rows as they were the only ones with water. The park is dry and dusty. The bathrooms/showers are clean. We will only be here one night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We arrived and thought it was closed, all sites were empty. They told us that we could take any site we wanted, the first had no water at all. There was weeds all over and broken hook ups, a shower/bath house that is open 24/7 right off highway 9 with cars pulling in to use. There is some tent camping east of the RV section. In 3 days we only saw 3 other RV's use the park, if you want to be right on the roadway with no neighbors and security than this is the place! Check in is across the street and closest services/supplies about 11 miles east. The campground is 1/2 mile from the east gate of Zion National Park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The Planetary Society has joined the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Astronomical Society, the Universities Space Research Association and other groups to support the NASA budget proposal for fiscal year 2011.
A dozen non-profit organizations, representing science and engineering constituencies as well as the public, issued a statement of support on Thursday for the human space exploration plan outlined in NASA's proposed budget. The group includes America's largest science organization (AAAS) and AIAA, the world's largest professional aerospace society (the American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics), as well as the largest citizen's space interest group -- The Planetary Society.
"The new plan for NASA strikes the right balance in priorities, by focusing NASA's human space flight program on exploration beyond the Moon and into interplanetary space," states Louis Friedman, Executive Director of The Planetary Society. "This change will open up a new era of achievement for a new generation."
The Joint Statement says, in part: "We believe this is an opportunity for NASA to craft the exploration strategy in partnership with science and applied science that includes the International Space Station, safe and cost-effective access to low Earth orbit, robotic precursors, and other missions."
Under the new guidelines, space flight to low Earth orbit would be turned over to the commercial sector, using their long experience and existing rockets, as well as the entrepreneurial energy and investment of new companies. American participation in the International Space Station would be extended, guaranteeing the space station a customer and American astronauts a near-term destination, and presaging a future of international cooperation in space exploration.
The joint statement was issued by the following organizations:

Encrypting the file system above the hypervisor is a way to secure data at rest and to provide assurance that others can't access the data. This article demonstrates some technologies and applications you can use to encrypt data inside guest images on SmartCloud Enterprise. It shows how to encrypt a storage unit (persistent storage) and how to encrypt the home directory. This article steps you through these scenarios:
- Encrypt a storage unit on Linux using dm-crypt. dm-crypt is a transparent disk encryption subsystem in the Linux kernel. It is a device mapper that provides transparent encryption of block devices. A filesystem can be used on top of dm-crypt transparently, and even raw data types can use it.
- Encrypt a storage unit on Windows® Server using the Windows Encrypting File System (EFS). Windows EFS can encrypt data transparently per file, per directory, or per-drive. As such it is also applicable to persistent storage and as an encryption technology to encrypt data inside directories in a windows image.
- Encrypt a home directory on Linux using Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem (eCryptfs). eCryptfs works on top of the filesystem, which allows you to encrypt data specifically in your home directory. This is an added benefit since SmartCloud Enterprise doesn't have a facility to encrypt the boot volume. Encrypting a home directory allows some reasonable security to cover that gap.
Before you begin, note that with most encryption technologies, if you lose your encryption key and encryption is enabled, the data is essentially lost. Please be careful.
Encrypt a storage unit
Let's start with storage unit encryption. On both Linux and Windows, the basic steps to set up storage-unit encryption include:
- Install file system encryption tools.
- Prepare the target storage unit.
- Encrypt the storage unit.
- Format the new file system on the encrypted storage unit.
- Mount the encrypted file system for usage.
Encrypt a storage unit using dm-crypt on Red Hat and SUSE
Let's walk through the steps to encrypt a persistent storage unit attached to a Linux virtual machine running on SmartCloud Enterprise. dm-crypt supports all Linux supported file systems, including RAW types, with the exception of network file systems. A list of supported ciphers for dm-crypt is located under /proc/ciphers. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is preferred.
The steps are the same on both Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Storage units are attached during instance provisioning on the SmartCloud Enterprise console. The default mount point is /data.
- Most of the commands require root privileges, so launch a root shell.
$ sudo sh
- Install the dm-crypt utilities. This should be a part of the basic image already.
$ sudo sh $ yum install cryptsetup cryptsetup-luks
- You need to know the name of the storage unit you want to encrypt. Find it by checking your /etc/fstab file for the partition mounted at /data or at the custom mount point you specified at instance creation. In our example, the name of the storage unit is /dev/vdc1.
$ cat /etc/fstab /dev/vdc1 /data ext3 defaults 0 0
- Prepare the attached storage unit for encryption. We recommend that you perform a
secure erase of the drive before you encrypting, and then you must unmount the storage
unit. Note that this method of secure delete won't be compliant in many high privacy
organizations; you should consider alternate methods before the storage device is used.
$ cat /dev/urandom > /dev/vdc1 $ umount /data $ chmod 000 /data
- Initialize the Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) formatting on the storage device using
command provided by the ecryptfs package. You are prompted to enter a passphrase that you must remember. Note that a LUKs format will destroy all data on the target.$ /sbin/cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/vdc1 WARNING! ======== This will overwrite data on /dev/vdc1 irrevocably. Are you sure? (Type uppercase yes): YES Enter LUKS passphrase: Verify passphrase: Command successful.
- Use the
command to open the encrypted storage device. The first argument afterluksOpen
is the name of the encrypted storage unit. The second argument is the name you want to assign the opened device. You are prompted to enter the passphrase you specified in step 4.$ /sbin/cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/vdc1 crypt-vdc1 Enter LUKS passphrase for /dev/vdc1: key slot 0 unlocked. Command successful.
- Format the file system to make it usable. You need to reference the name you specified in step 5.
$ /sbin/mkfs.ext3 /dev/mapper/crypt-vdc1
- Mount your newly encrypted storage unit and securely store your data at rest. In this
example, mount it at the original mount point /data.
$ mount /dev/mapper/crypt-vdc1 /data
- Remember to unmount the storage unit and close the encrypted device when you aren't using your encrypted data.
$ umount /data $ /sbin/cryptsetup luksClose crypt-vdc1
You can open and mount it again using the
What if you want to delete the instance your storage device is attached to and then re-attach the storage device to a new instance? You can mount the encrypted device using the luksOpen
and mount
commands as above, using the same device name (/dev/vdc1).
To delete your encrypted partition and restore your storage device to original, while it's opened and mounted, run the following commands:
$ /sbin/cryptsetup remove crypt-vdc1 $ /sbin/mkfs.ext3 /dev/vdc1
Encrypt a storage unit on Windows Server
Windows Server supports file system encryption natively, so after you provision a Windows instance in SmartCloud Enterprise, you don't have to install any additional encryption tools. The Windows Encrypting File System (EFS) works slightly different than file system encryption on Linux.
Windows EFS is not directly related to Bit Locker. Bit Locker is Windows' whole-drive encryption product, which is licensed in Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate, as well as in all versions of Windows Server 2008. EFS doesn't have any special licensing requirements.
In Windows, you can encrypt a directory so that only you can access it. When you specify a directory to be encrypted, Windows generates a key that will automatically decrypt the directory when you log in. You can export your key to share with other users if necessary.
The default encryption algorithm used by EFS is AES with a 256 bit key.
New persistent storage units attached to Windows instances are uninitialized, and so you must initialize and format them before encrypted files can be stored on them.
- Open the Server Manager and select from the left navigation tree. Under Storage, select Disk Management.
- If the attached persistent storage unit is new and hasn't been initialized by another
instance Storage, it appears as an unknown and offline disk, as shown in Figure 1.
Right-click on the disk name, and select Online.
Figure 1. Selecting the storage to initialize
- Right-click the disk name again and select Initialize. Leave the default options and confirm the initialization.
- To format the disk, right-click the unallocated disk to the right of the disk name, and select New Simple Volume.
Once your persistent storage unit is formatted and ready for use, follow these steps:
- Open it in Windows Explorer and create a new folder in it for storing encrypted data.
- Right-click the folder and select Properties, and then click the Advanced button on the General tab.
- At the bottom of the Advanced Attributes window is an option called "Encrypt
contents to secure data". Check this option, click OK, and then click Apply to enable encryption of the folder.
Figure 2. Encrypting the folder
Any data in the encrypted folder is encrypted when you log out of Windows, when the instance is stopped, or when the volume is unmounted.
- Windows stores the encryption key in its local key manager, and you will likely see a notification prompting you to back up your encryption key, as shown in Figure 3. You should consider backing up your encryption key and storing it securely on another device.
Figure 3. Reminder to back up your encryption key
Notice that the name of your encrypted folder now displays as green in Windows Explorer. This indicates the folder is encrypted.
Figure 4. Encrypted folder displayed in green
- To test your new encrypted folder, create a new text document inside the folder and add some text to it. Now log out of your current user, and log into Windows as another user. If you attempt to open the encrypted text document as a user other than the user who encrypted it, you should get an access denied error.
For more information on Windows Encrypting File System and managing your encryption keys, refer to the Microsoft documentation (see Resources.)
Encrypt a home directory on Linux
Next, learn how to use eCryptfs to encrypt data under /home/<users>. SmartCloud Enterprise doesn't support boot volume encryption, but you can still encrypt all the data in your home directory even though the rest of the image is in the clear. You should do this in conjunction with encrypting any persistent disks using dm-crypt, as previously discussed.
eCryptfs currently supports the following ciphers:
- Blowfish
- TwoFish
AES is the preferred cipher.
The basic steps to set up home directory encryption on Linux include:
- Backup your home directory.
- Prepare the eCryptfs directory structure.
- Mount the encrypted directory.
Encrypt your home directory on Red Hat Enterprise Linux
- Most of the commands require root privileges, so launch a root shell.
$ sudo sh
- Before you can install eCryptfs, you must configure Red Hat Update Infrastructure on SmartCloud Enterprise. (See Resources.)
- Once you've configured an update repository on your server, install eCryptfs and load the module. The
command is contained in the /sbin directory and is not on the path by default.$ yum install ecryptfs-utils $ /sbin/modprobe ecryptfs
- If you have any current data in your home directory, back it up before proceeding. Replace
with your username.$ mv /home/idcuser /home/idcuser.old $ mkdir –m 700 /home/idcuser $ chown idcuser: idcuser /home/idcuser $ /usr/sbin/usermod –d /home/idcuser.old idcuser
- Log out and log back into the system. Now you must prepare the directory structure to
support file system encryption. In this example, a two layer directory
structure where all of your encrypted data is stored in a directory called
, which is mounted on top of your home directory when you want to access it. Again, remember to replaceidcuser
with your username. If you logged out, remember to launch a root shell.$ sudo sh $ mkdir –p /home/.ecryptfs/idcuser/.Private $ chmod 755 /home/.ecryptfs $ chmod –R 700 /home/.ecryptfs/idcuser $ chown –R idcuser:idcuser /home/.ecryptfs/idcuser $ ln –s /home/.ecryptfs/idcuser/.Private /home/idcuser/.Private $ chmod 500 /home/idcuser
The /home/.ecryptfs directory is the encrypted equivalent of the /home directory. It stores encrypted data of all users and is owned by root. Each user should have his own directory under /home/.ecryptfs, which stores his encrypted data. For example, /home/.ecryptfs/idcuser/.Private. Users can then mount this directory over their /home directory to access their encrypted files.
- In order to mount eCryptfs, you need a kernel keychain session. On SmartCloud
Enterprise Red Hat images, this isn't automatically created for you when you log in, so you need to do it manually with the
command. You might want to automate this step by adding it to your login script.$ keyctl session
- Mount your eCryptfs directory over your home directory.
$ mount –t ecryptfs /home/idcuser/.Private /home/idcuser
- If this is the first time you are mounting this directory, eCryptfs asks several questions about how you want to set it up. For details about these options, see the eCryptfs readme file on Sourceforge (see Resources). Here are the options we used:
Select key type to use for newly created files: 1) tspi 2) openssl 3) passphrase Selection: 3 Passphrase: Select cipher: 1) aes: blocksize = 16; min keysize = 16; max keysize = 32 (not loaded) 2) blowfish: blocksize = 16; min keysize = 16; max keysize = 32 (not loaded) 3) des3_ede: blocksize = 8; min keysize = 24; max keysize = 24 (not loaded) 4) twofish: blocksize = 16; min keysize = 16; max keysize = 32 (not loaded) 5) cast6: blocksize = 16; min keysize = 16; max keysize = 32 (not loaded) 6) cast5: blocksize = 8; min keysize = 5; max keysize = 16 (not loaded) Selection [aes]: 4 Select key bytes: 1) 16 2) 32 Selection [16]: 2 Enable plaintext passthrough (y/n) [n]: y Attempting to mount with the following options: ecryptfs_unlink_sigs ecryptfs_passthrough ecryptfs_key_bytes=32 ecryptfs_cipher=twofish ecryptfs_sig=1848e1d7b8a187fc WARNING: Based on the contents of [/root/.ecryptfs/sig-cache.txt], it looks like you have never mounted with this key before. This could mean that you have typed your passphrase wrong. Would you like to proceed with the mount (yes/no)? : yes Would you like to append sig [1848e1d7b8a187fc] to [/root/.ecryptfs/sig-cache.txt] in order to avoid this warning in the future (yes/no)? : yes Successfully appended new sig to user sig cache file Attempting to mount with the following options: ecryptfs_unlink_sigs ecryptfs_passthrough ecryptfs_key_bytes=32 ecryptfs_cipher=twofish ecryptfs_sig=1848e1d7b8a187fc Mounted eCryptfs
Remember to use a very secure passphrase and don't lose it, as it is the key to all of your data.
- The previous command creates a new entry in your /etc/mtab file. You can retrieve it with the following command.
$ grep "ecryptfs" /etc/mtab
It should look something like this:
/home/.ecryptfs/idcuser/.Private /home/idcuser ecryptfs rw, ecryptfs_sig=1848e1d7b8a187fc,ecryptfs_cipher=twofish,ecryptfs_key_bytes=32, ecryptfs_passthrough,ecryptfs_unlink_sigs 0 0
- Add the user option just before
, and then append the line to your /etc/fstab file so that it looks like this:/home/.ecryptfs/idcuser/.Private /home/idcuser ecryptfs user,rw, ecryptfs_sig=1848e1d7b8a187fc,ecryptfs_cipher=twofish,ecryptfs_key_bytes=32, ecryptfs_passthrough,ecryptfs_unlink_sigs 0 0
- Unmount the directory so that the user can mount it without root privileges.
$ umount /home/idcuser
- Log out of the system and log back in as your user account, or just exit the root shell. To mount your encrypted directory, you need a keychain session, so run the
command described earlier. You also need to add the passphrase you specified earlier to the keychain using this command:$ ecryptfs-manager eCryptfs key management menu ------------------------------- 1. Add passphrase key to keyring 2. Add public key to keyring 3. Generate new public/private keypair 4. Exit Make selection: 1 Mount-wide passphrase: Confirm passphrase: Using the default salt value Added key to keyring with signature [1848e1d7b8a187fc].
- You can now mount your encrypted directory over your home directory using this command:
$ mount –i /home/idcuser
While this directory is mounted, you are able to write files to it and use it as normal. When you unmount it, it becomes inaccessible encrypted data. Now is a good time to restore your backed up home directory to your new encrypted home directory.
- To secure your home directory, unmount it and delete the passphrase from your keychain.
$ umount /home/idcuser $ keyctl clear @u
- Various data is leaked to your swap space during application use, so if you're encrypting a home directory, you should also encrypt your swap partition. To do that, follow the approach in the section Encrypt a Storage unit, described earlier in this article.
Encrypt your home directory on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
To encrypt your home directory (or any other directory) on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, the steps are the same as for Red Hat, with one difference: To install eCryptfs on SUSE, use this command:
$ yast –I ecryptfs-utils
Some limitations
We've been describing ways to encrypt data at rest inside guest images on SmartCloud Enterprise. There are some limitations:
- When an image is running, the encryption keys are stored in memory. Other vulnerabilities in the running instance might allow those encryption keys or other data to be exposed. Other security configuration and patch management is still required.
- eCryptfs, dm-crypt, and Windows EFS don't support hidden encryption containers. Hidden containers may offer some advantage in hiding data in the event that forensics are being run against the instance.
- The instance must be running before encryption keys can be entered, and so the entire boot volume can't be encrypted with the approach described in this article.
Use strong passphrases
Since these technologies use an encryption key based on a passphrase, you should use strong passphrase complexity rules. As a guideline, a passphrase should:
- Be at least 16 positions in length, when supported by the technology.
- Contain a mix of alphabetic and non-alphabetic characters (numbers, punctuation or special characters) or a mix of at least two types of non-alphabetic characters.
- Not contain a user ID as part of the passphrase.
In conclusion
It's important to secure data in guest images on SmartCloud Enterprise. This article demonstrated the steps to encrypt a storage unit on Linux using dm-crypt, and on Windows using Windows EFS. It also showed how to encrypt a home directory on Linux using eCryptfs.
