A New Generation of Cyber Security Specialists
Lancaster University is training a new generation of Cyber Security specialists.
This month the Government announced that cyber crime was one of the key dangers to UK security and £500m has been allocated from the Governments' National Security Strategy to strengthen cyber security, focusing on protecting key infrastructure and defence assets.
Lancaster University spotted the skills gap in this area in 2008 and began developing a new Masters Degree in Cyber Security, accredited through the University's School of Computing and Communications (SCC).
Teaching started this month and recruitment has exceeded expectations.
The course covers a broad range of knowledge and skills to help the student understand Cyber Security from a socio-technical viewpoint. These threats could range from phishing emails and confidence tricks to fraud schemes and national infrastructure attacks.
Head of School, Professor Nigel Davies, said: "Cyber Security is one of the key challenges of our time and at Lancaster we have well-established research in a wide range of related fields including network security and user privacy.
"Graduates from this programme will help to build on the knowledge they gain at Lancaster to help ensure that society as a whole is able to respond to the new and very real Cyber Security challenges. I'm absolutely delighted that we are able to offer this exciting new masters programme."
The course is available full and part-time and can also be taken as a Postgraduate diploma/certificate. It is unique in its multi-disciplinary approach, combining modules from other schools within the University including Psychology, Criminology and Law.
ICT Focus, based in Lancaster University's InfoLab21, delivers the technical content of the programme. ICT Focus specialises in security and practical skill set training and started developing the MSc in 2008. One of the main goals of the course was to ensure students would be highly employable at the end of the programme.
Alongside the academic learning, students undertake professional qualifications from some of the security industry's heavyweights including EC Council.
Adrian Venables, a student on the Postgraduate Certificate in Cyber Security, said: "Security is a key area and there is still a skills shortage. This course covers a range of areas and links into professional qualifications. Companies will look for this and it will stand out on a CV."
A series of guest lectures are planned for the programme, started on Friday 22nd October with Robert Hayes BSc, a leading government adviser on Cyber Security and former Assistant Chief Constable.
Robert Hayes Lecture
Robert Hayes, a Senior Fellow of the Microsoft Institute for Advanced Technology in Governments, delivered the lecture to a full house which included InfoLab21-based businesses.
Topics discussed included cyber warfare, espionage, crime and why this is a business not a technology problem.
Mr Hayes said, "The last thing the world needs is another set of very technically able people who will fit into a second tier business model. It's about bringing knowledge of how the business and security issues interrelate and looking at the concept of risk in a more global way.
"I really do think that the model of curriculum the MSc is running here is the way this needs to go. It is about getting people into organisations at senior level who can be trusted to make these decisions."
Tom Ashworth, Technical Director at NuBlue, added, "As an internet business responsible for thousands of websites online, the lecture was an informative overview of the challenges facing Internet Security. It was very interesting to hear that despite current government cost-cutting, more money will be channelled into defending against Cyber Terrorism, due to the threat it poses to our country."
MSc In Cyber Security
The course is available full and part-time and can also be taken as a Postgraduate diploma/certificate. It is unique in its multi-disciplinary approach, combining modules from other schools within the University including Psychology, Criminology and Law.
ICT Focus will also be delivering a range of 5-day security courses over the next few months including Certified Ethical Hacker.

I'm glad to announce that I put up a new category on this blog called "product reviews". Basically, in this category you may find articles that will clarify you if a product is worth to be bought or not. Surely, I am talking about digital products or softwares, I would never give advice upon buying or not a vacuum cleaner.
Given the fact that in the past few 5 almost 6 years now I've managed to become an experter in the Internet Marketing area I am confident enough to say that I will truly give only my honest review upon reading/using that certain product in detail.

Linda is a mess.
She was whining about lawyers being too expensive to help her clear out some of what she described as traffic violations that had bench warrants on them as best I remember.
I believe that is behind her "exile" to Dallas.
There are a few Criminal Simulation and Forgery warrants from 2006 and 2007 under a certain name. If I'm not mistaken, felony warrants don't expire.
No one leaves a state over a traffic warrant.

Category archives for Iceland
I just had an ice cold Pepsi this afternoon. It was 35+C (ok, in the mid-nineties), I had just come back from a long hot walk through the kidfest day at the Artfest and I just had to have it. It was so refreshing, and cool, and invigorating. Why it was exhilarating.
Inspired by Iceland wants you to know Iceland is bursting with energy!
The eruption in Eyjafjallajökull has abated and latest reports sunday show the vent closed and no ash or lava flow. Míla camera shows small steam plume monday morning The mountain is quiet, no earthquakes right now, nor any in Katla. There have been many small earthquakes around Iceland, some in worrying places, but no consistent…
It is not true that, after the failure to put a specially made "top hat" on top of Eyjafjallajökull to stem the ash plume, there will be an attempt to put a hose on top of the mountain to capture the ash;
you know how sometimes a bank will just decide that it didn't like how the original term of its loan worked out and it will just change the deal to something better? They can do that, it is all in the fine print. Now they've done it again
Útrásar Víkingar – that is what we called them, the new Masters of the Universe who set forth from Iceland in the last decade to conquer the new world of finance.
As you may recall, over 18 months ago Iceland lead the world into a minor financial crisis, with the rest of y'all toddling along later. Now Iceland takes the lead again, as a Special Prosecutor issues some indictments and the perps start walking…
Couple of new webcams checking on the volcano it is stirring again.
Well, Eyjafjallajökull is bubbling along nicely, there is still some ash coming out, but not high enough to carry as far, and less of it. And the wind is turning, so tomorrow Icelandic airports will close as the ash comes back west across the country. There is also a curiousity on the ice cap above…

The Ministry of Justice has said it does "not comment on individual prisoners or their partners" in relation to the case of a prisoner who is being allowed to use NHS facilities to become a father. It also confirmed that had not provided any funding for the treatment. Downing Street earlier confirmed that the Ministry of Justice was looking into the matter.
The statement from the Ministry of Justice also says that: "The Secretary of State will review the issues raised in due course, in order to provide guidance and clarity for future cases of this kind."
Conservative MPs Philip Davies and Douglas Carswell have criticised the effects of human rights legislation on the treatment of prisoners. Mr Davies said "the public are sick to the back teeth" of prisoners' human rights, while Mr Carswell said "It's another step towards an insane world where criminals have more rights than the rest of us".

Diggin' the Natives – Garden Phlox
It is true, most cultivars of garden phlox do get mildew, however it will not kill the plant. Powdery mildew rarely does. And in this instance height can be a virtue – tuck it behind some shrubs and allow the wonderful flowers to dance in the background.

Sculpture showcase
- Writer: Bangkok Post Editorial
- Published: September 12, 2013 at 8:03 am
The interior of the Thermae Berzieri of Salsomaggiore.
Dozens of decorative sculptures by the Italian artist responsible for the fresco inside the Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall's dome will be on show at Siam Paragon from Monday.
Held to mark the friendship between Italy and Thailand that has lasted 145 years, the "Galileo Chini the Jewels of Decorations" exhibition will feature 26 liberty-style sculptures from the Thermae Berzieri of Salsomaggiore, one of the most famous luxury spring-water spas in Europe.
The showcase marks the first time these Chini creations will be displayed outside their homeland. The exhibition will be held at the Lifestyle Hall, 2nd floor of Siam Paragon from Monday to Sept 29.
The sculptures _ most of them made from stone _ are backup pieces created in the early 1920s and discovered by chance a few years ago in the spa's basement. Even though they are more than 90 years old, they are still in pristine condition.
The sculptures were designed by Chini and realised by the craftsmen from Borgo San Lorenzo, the company founded by Chini and his cousin Chino Chini near Florence that produces the high quality artworks.
Artwork by prominent Italian artist Galileo Chini will be on display at Siam Paragon from Monday to Sept 29.
There are also pieces of majolica _ a type of Italian pottery _ several of which are decorated with pure gold. The main colours of these artworks are gold, which signifies luxury and wealth, and blue, representing water.
Chini was commissioned to design the decorative items for the spa on his return from Siam, which helps explain the influence on the sculptures.
As a tribute to Chini, the exhibition will also feature jewellery designed by Casato, a leading Italian jewellery brand, with inspiration from a decoration at the spa. The silver, gold and diamond sets consist of rings, pendants and earrings.
Maitree Siriboon, a contemporary Thai artist from Ubon Ratchathani, will exhibit a glass mosaic based on a decorative majolica panel designed by Chini in 1920.
The opening is on Monday at 6pm and will be presided over by Italian Ambassador to Thailand Michelangelo Pipan. Vieri Chini, a grandson of Chini's who in his 80s and a designer in charge of the production of artworks at Borgo San Lorenzo in Florence, will also join the event.
Free admission. Call 02-610-8000.

This place isnt the fanciest place to stay in bear but tge place was clean and close to snow summit. I was greeted by avwarm smule of the front desk lady and the room and environment was quiet. I would recommend this place to friends and family. The wolf creek is alittle on the pricy side of rates for their rooms. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate on coming back to this place for a night's stay for a day on the slopes.

Great experience. Everyone was very nice and it is close to everything.

Room was great, less than a mile from parking at both resorts Bear and Summit. Staff was nice even gave me a $50 off next stay. Would definitely recommend this place for sure. Great rooms and wifi, TVs are old school but still nice.

Nikon Wants You To Control Anti-Aliasing Filter On The Go
Nikon just filed quite an interesting patent. This patent describes a mechanism that gives a photographer control over the use of Anti Aliasing filter.
If this goes through it could be pretty big. Here is why.
First, What Is Anti Aliasing Filter?
Anti Aliasing filter (or optical low-pass - OLPF) is a thin filter that actually softens the image a bit before it hits the sensor. The reason for this was to reduce moire effects. (Those are a wave-y shapes that you see on images with tight patterns.
This makes sense if you are shooting something that has a repeating frequency like repeating lines, dots or patterns. If the distance between those lines is in certain relations to the sensor, you get this pattern. (think back to news anchors wearing the wrong shirts).
So, Why Remove The Filter?
If you are shooting something with no pattern, you don't actually get any pattern reducing benefits, while still softening your image.
This makes no sense for some types of photography. Actually, it makes no sense for most types of photography. This is why Nikon had two D800 bodies - a "regular" D800 and a AA filterless D800E body. You could choose sharpness or Moire.
While moire has very small effect on photography, it has a bigger effect on video. When the camera downscales the image from its native format (say down to 1080x1920) thin lines became jagged and pasterns become zig-zaged.
Now You Get Both
This has been a major selling point for the 800 series, but required that you made a choice. If this patent goes live you will not have to choose anymore. you'll have all the sharpness in the world for shooting stills (AA off) while getting smooth video (AA on), making the DSLR a better dual use device.
The patent, sadly, is in Japanese, so the technical idea behind it can be either Google translated or extracted from the image above but the motivation is pretty clear.

View Enlarged Image
Consumer-focused industries continued to lead job growth, data showed Friday, but renewed pessimism ahead of the year-end "fiscal cliff" deadline could cool future gains.
Payrolls swelled by 146,000 in November, far better than expected, as Superstorm Sandy had no substantive effect, the Labor Department said.
But downward revisions to the prior two months totaled 49,000. The monthly average this year is 151,000, slightly worse than 2011 and barely enough to keep up with population growth.
The unemployment rate slid to a four-year low 7.7% from 7.9%, according to a separate survey of households. A broader underemployment gauge fell to 14.4%.
But those drops were mainly due to 350,000 people leaving the workforce. The labor force participation ratio fell to 63.6% from 63.8%, back near a generational low.
Unemployment would be 11.1% if the participation rate had held at the 66% level at the recession's December 2007 start.
Without fiscal policy uncertainty and Sandy, last month's job growth could've been closer to 200,000, estimated Allen Sinai, chief global economist at Decision Economics.
He still sees November's broad gains as positive. But with federal deficits and debt limiting potential growth, future hiring like ly will resemble the recent past's.
"What we've seen is what we're going to have for a long, long time," Sinai said. "We have to get used to it."
An earlier consumer sentiment spike coincided with retail payrolls rising for five straight months. The sector added 52,600 jobs last month after 50,900 in October — the best two-month performance since mid-1996. Some of November's gain may have reflected the early Thanksgiving and door-buster deals.
Payrolls were up by 23,000 in leisure and hospitality, 22,000 in health care, and 13,100 in wholesale trade. Professional services added 43,000.
Meanwhile, factory activity is weakening, and manufacturers shed workers in three of the last four months. Construction lost 20,000 in November, though steady advances in homebuilding and Sandy-related reconstruction should reverse that.
Robust hiring in consumer industries could slow as confidence retreats. The University of Michigan index tumbled to 74.5 in December from 82.7 in November, the first drop in five months, as expectations hit a year low.
Uncertainty over how lawmakers will address the fiscal cliff of automatic tax hikes and budget cuts is seen responsible for that.
"Now I think reality has set in," said Jack Kleinhenz, an economics professor at Case Western Reserve University.
Next month's report could have modest downward revisions, he added, due to the November survey being done a week earlier than usual and more precise readings on Sandy's impact.
Underlying growth trends remain moderate, Kleinhenz said. "We're not gaining any traction."
Retail sales jumped more than expected in November, helping temper initial fears of a Scrooge-like holiday season and adding to expectations for an early Federal Reserve stimulus pullback. Sales rose 0.7%, the best in five months, the Commerce Department said. October sales growth was revised up to ...
With inflation continuing to cool, the Federal Reserve wants to see faster price gains. But the central bank may quietly favor a big inflation spike to rev up the economy. Inflation has fallen to a four-year low of 1%, with core inflation just 1.7%, according to the latest consumer price index. ...
Employers added more jobs than expected in November while the unemployment rate sank to a five-year low, upping the ante for the Federal Reserve to begin tapering its bond-buying program. But analysts and Wall Street don't expect a move until next year. Nonfarm payrolls increased by 203,000 last ...
Private-sector hiring last month grew by the most in a year, according to one of several new reports Wednesday giving the Federal Reserve confidence that it can begin tapering bond buys at some point. Employers added 215,200 jobs in November, according to ADP's estimate, up from 184,400 in October ...
Americans were a little less gloomy heading into the holiday season, but they were still far from merry according to the latest IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism Index. The latest reading was 43.1, up from 41.4 a month earlier and the prior month's 2-year-low 38.4 just as the government shutdown got ...

The secret of the CrazyWaiter
I made a presentation to show in a comprehensive way my secrets
"Why did the CrazyWaiter become as one of the employees who were cited most as 'outstanding'? A personal vision about Service and the quality of it by someone on the workfloor"
Anna Kendrick – Cups (Pitch Perfect's "When I'm Gone")
I didn't know that there could be so much music in cups and the restaurant. This song is from the movie Pitch Perfect After the jump a tutorial and the original fragment!
"How to manage the CrazyWaiter" – for dummies
I'm working already 20 years in the restaurant business and I think I can say I know how to do it. I'm very easy to manage, but even better if you keep the following things in mind! I guess it doesn't work only for me, but for most of you - so feel free to reuse it!
- First of all: never ever use the imperative. You absolutely don't have to beg but at least ask friendly because I'll do it anyway
- Say what I have to do and try to avoid explaining how to do it
- In 90% of the cases there is a reason when I do something in a different way as usual
- Try to collect as much tasks as possible and give them in one time. It is annoying if you keep giving a new task after I completed the former task. When given the complete to do-list I have (also) an overview and I can combine things and make priorities
- Don't stay immobile watching after giving orders. Help me, do something else or walk away
- Most of times I know what and how to do. If I don't do it immediately I'll see it a moment later or something else has a bigger priority to do
- Don't give feedback when the heat is on
- Give me the chance to work as independent as possible. Just let me do my thing.
- Don't worry, when I need help or don't know anything I won't be afraid to ask
- I'm not blind for the interests of other stakeholders but never ever forget that the guest is the central point in (almost) everything I do!
Lego waiter
Today I saw this on a photo in a shop. Unfortunately they are sold in a serie and the individual packages don't show which figure is in it, so I didn't buy it. But I will monitor ebay closely because I really want him !!!
From the Lego site:(*)
"Good evening. May I recommend this fine green plastic bottle with a picture of grapes on it?"
The Waiter is the very model of balance, manners and poise. Perpetually patient and polite, he always knows exactly what drink to serve with each turkey leg, sausage link, or pizza pie his customers order…although it might be because he only has one bottle, and he serves it every time.
There's just a single thing that rattles the calm of the cool and collected Waiter, and that's unexpected noises. Something as simple as a hiccup across the room is enough to startle him, and a sneeze once almost made him drop his tray. You don't even want to know what happens when somebody nearby burps!
We serve breakfast, lunch and… hugs
Very nice and inspiring movie about Tim's place in Albuquerque
The CrazyWaiter serves… and pins
Pinterest is a huge source of information and inspiration. So I joined also Pinterest (read: shared my 'private' boards with my alter-ego), so follow me! Click at the image to see my boards.
See my following list who I recommend to follow for other inspiring boards, and my likes for the pins I think interesting
The fifth chair
An interesting story about hospitality:
"On this premises I'd like to tell you a little story that occurred to me a short while ago when I was visiting the beautiful city of Trieste with my wife and few friends. (..)
Our research soon produced a typical trattoria owned by an old couple, with 25-30 seats, husband in the kitchen, wife is in the room - and you immediately notice it. The interiors' decorations, the courteousness were a clear sign of a woman's touch hence we felt at home the moment we walked in. But something weird caught my attention. Sitting at the rounded table set for four people, I noticed something unusual: five chairs for four people…I couldn't figure out why was that and when I looked at the rest of the room I was really intrigued since all the tables presented the same layout. That's not a mistake - I thought - there must be something related to the service."
Read the whole story at Serving is a supreme art.
Megafactories – Illy Coffee
One of my favorite brands is Illy caffè! I love the promotion of their quality and sustainability, it was a big inspiration for me when I was working as QESH-engineer for a local coffeeroaster. In this interesting documentary you see the fascinating world of Illy Caffè
And if you understand Italian or just want to see some nice images of Florence, Illy has made this movie to promote their 'artists of taste' with the beautiful barista Paula of Odeon Bistro

Unexpected Acts of Service
Nowadays everybody nows the "random acts of kindness". Let's translate that to our business and call it "Unexpected acts of Service". It's doing something small that gives joy to the guest (and yourself) so that the service quality experience is higher. And happy guests are returning guests It can be very simple. The secret is looking and listening very careful to verbal and above all non-verbal comunications. The best thing is when you do the act of course unexpected with a smile and when possible walking away without saying anything like nothing happened.
For your inspiration some examples of UAoS:
- Bringing a gluten free dessert when the birthdaycake is coming for a girl (*)
- Looking for some color pencils if you see that those from the guest are broken
- Bringing some wet towels when people have to shake a lot of hands with a condoleance or wedding
- Giving a glass of water when you see that someone is very very thirsty
- Adding some honey if you bring tea to singers
- Bringing a plate with small cookies if you hear that people are discussing who has to take the last cookie
- Indicating the way to the toilet if you see someone looking for it
- Serving grated cheese if you hear a kid complain that there is no cheese on the pasta
- If you see that a guest (almost) didn't eat anyting, ask 'whether you can do something for him' (never:'something is wrong?') or even bring another alternative dish unasked (with possible with sit-down dinners)
The management has to create the opportunities for making the UAoS possible, because some acts might cost some time or other resouces. But the added value is immense!
Do you have other examples of UAoS?

text: Biblical historians still debate whether the stories about Jesus were first written down by eyewitnesses or merely penned by later generations. This film features Biblical scholar Carsten Thiede's work indicating that the Gospel of Matthew was actually written down in 70 A.D., a time frame called the "eyewitness period" by some historians. Segments also focus on the new technologies and other devices being used to examine a host of ancient texts and other documents addressing Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. ~ Elizabeth Smith, Rovi

Wow! What an achievement. OK, MCS take a lesson from Lausanne Collegiate School. See how they do it. Parents of MCS students: Take a lesson from Keyuree Satam's parents. See how they do it! USA: Please observe that foreigners like Keyuree Satam and Linda Xu are dominating the educational accomplishment in the US and admit that the educational system in the US is TERRIBLE.... we need to ditch "no student left behind" approach and leave a few students behind and get serious about EDUCATION!!
Ok, let's see how they do it. You have to apply. They only take the ones they want to. You have to have money or get a scholarship by scoring very high on their entrance exam and need financial assistance. It you don't make the grade you are probably asked to leave whether you pay or not. Those with money can get tutoring and keep up. If any public school could take only those who they wanted, those who score high and have good conduct etc they would be in the top schools in the state. But alas public schools are not allowed to discriminate and must take all students even those with mental, behavior and academic problems. Memphis has an inordinate number of these due to high poverty rates, high out of wedlock and teenage birth mothers who are destined to be on welfare and govt assistance. It is a sad reality and there are rare instances where children in these circumstances rise above it and become 4.0 and high ACT scorers. The answer is not in the schools or the school system. The answer is in changing the culture of teenage pregnancy and parents and students wanting to attend school, wanting to do the work and seeing the need for an education as a way to get off the govt dole and Santa Claus Syndrome. Schools like Lausanne, MUS, Hutchison etc. don't have to deal with these problems which are inherent to the inner city. The only way to have no child left behind is if the parents and the children don't want to be left behind. As the saying goes, "you can lead a horse to water etc etc. The education is available in every school in the county, public or otherwise. If the parents and the students don't want to take advantage of it, there is no hope for them no matter what school you put them in. If they can't make in in Booker T. Washington, they won't make it in Lausanne or wherever.

| Battle: Los Angeles (2011) I think it's cool that a big production movie company is going to recreate the 1942 U.F.O. event that really happened (small scene for the movie). Reports back then said sadly that the falling debris from the projectiles that bounced off of the U.F.O. killed a handful of people. Even B-movie director Ed Wood used the 1942 U.F.O. incident as inspiration for his film PLAN 9 FROM OUTRER SPACE. |

| Re: Battle: Los Angeles (2011) Looks awesome, like Independence Day but better and more realistic. Cool thing is it's directed by a South African like the guy who did District 9. I'm sure this should be good as Michael Bay hired him to do the modern version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. But why is LA so special? |

| Battle of Los Angeles (2011) This one is up there in all-time rounds fired. Will wait to see what others say. It's a major shoot'emup in Santa Monica, total wreckage,death and horror, an obvious analogy for riding the bus on Pico Blvd., or being stuck in rush hour on Lincoln Blvd., which is where a lot of things explode, as well as Ocean Park Drive. There's a few shots on Patterson as well, which is just up the street from, curiously, Cloverfield Ave. They fight the Aliens there. |

| re: Battle of Los Angeles (2011) I saw it yesterday. I thought it was quite good, although nothing special. There isn't much in the way of plot or depth or SF content beyond the fact that aliens are attacking, it's basically just two hours of continual action scenes. I think they manage to fit in most military film clichés at some point during the film. On the plus side, some of the action scenes are quite tense and it was effective at showing the devastation and disorienting effects of the alien invasion. |

| Re: Battle of Los Angeles (2011) And simply for showing the problems of urban fighting, I'd guess. But, two hours of almost non-stop adrenalin. Haven't had such a rush in ages, the battle is relentless. As for the CGI, seamless, realistic, constantly moving, all depths of field, in and out of focus, dust, smoke, fire: astounding. And, technically, most of it to steadicam filming. Or, as it felt, unsteadicam. |

| Re: Battle of Los Angeles (2011) That's the spirit. Prepare to stay with the US Marines start to finish in this one. There's 15 min. marine character development, and a twenty minute lull for an indoctrination speech late in the movie... but Marines don't quit! Aliens? No detail, we never see their point of view, or even their bodies since they seem to fight in robot-suits. They are terrible shots. London, England is also attacked though you'll have to watch close to spot it. Memorable lines: Aliens? That's not possible, right? We cannot lose LA! We're abandoning LA! Let's take back LA! Maybe I can help- I'm a veterinarian. Let's let those B*s know who they're F*ing with. Hard to make out much of the neighborhood, it's mostly wreckage with only billboards advertising beer and gas companies visible, though they do end up stuck in a bus on what looks the Ten Hwy. after three o'clock, which is bad enough even without Aliens attacking. |

The musicians bring along their guitars, banjos, and even a double brass.
It is a good time, and it is a good community thing for the musicians too, said guitarist and group organizer Russ Swanson. A lot musicians are sitting at home playing alone, and it would be great to play with someone else. It gives them a good chance to do that.
Swanson started the troupe earlier this summer.
When someone leaves a tip for the players, they donate it to Loaves and Fishes Community Pantry.
The group plans to keep playing weekly into the fall, and are constantly accepting more musicians.

Obesity Surgery May Become Option for More
The Lap-Band device is a popular surgical product used to shrink the stomach so that obese patients can cut back on their eating. made by manufacturer Allergan, the Lap-Band was approved for sale in 2001 and is currently approved for use in adults with a BMI of at least 40 or at least 35 plus another health problem.
Allergan is looking to gain approval for a wider group of patients. They would like it to be used for patients with a BMI of 35 or higher or at least 30 plus another health problem. A BMI of 30 is considered obese.
Clinical trials showed that the adjustable silicon stomach band improved health-related quality of life in people who aren't as heavy as current users, according to regulators.
A FDA report showed that no deaths or "unanticipated adverse effects" occurred with the device.
Allergan is looking to sell Lap-Band for treating people who have a body mass index of 35 or even 30 for those with other complications
Allergan conducted a study and found that patients had a "significant decrease in all measures of weight loss," wrote FDA reviewers in a summary to be reviewed by an outside group of advisers. There were no unexpected complications and about 2% of device-related problems were considered severe.
The advisory committee to the Food and Drug Administration voted 8 to 2 that the benefits of Lap-Band surgery exceeded the risks for patients in the lower range of obesity. It voted 8 to 2 that the device was safe, and 8 to 1, with one abstention, that the device was effective.
The F.D.A. usually agrees with its advisory committees, but it was not clear when a decision would be made

As soon as i opened the jewelry box it came in ,my eyes popped wide open the ring looked awesome! i ordered it tuesday night at 9pm on 10/2/12 received it saturday quick shipping thanks overstock. It has a little dark tint to it but still matches my silver face stainless steel band movado watch i love it couldnt be more satisfied . i ordered a size 11 and it was a perfect fit . i wanted to make sure with their sizing sheet that you cut out and it was exactly a 11 . The ring fits great! It feels durable and it is a little heavy i compared the weight with a adult size stainless steel spoon its about exact . For the price i paid $$ shipped not bad at all!
I bought this ring for my husband because I wanted a ring that wasn't plain but not too much that it looks girly. So I came across this ring on Overstock and I thought it was perfect. Just what I was looking for! We got it in the mail and he loves it. Its a great ring.
The rope inlay piece in the middle came off after only a year. =(
The ring looks very cheap compared to the photo and for the price it is just not worth it.
I ordered this as a replacement when my husband lost his original ring. I first ordered a size 10 because I was guessing on his size but I was wrong. I called for return instructions and they couldn't have been easier to work with. They even reserved the size I needed so it would be available when they did the exchange. The ring is beautiful, a little heavy but my husband said the weight doesn't bother him. We love it!
when my husband saw his wedding band he love it. He doesn't like man jewelry that much and he is a hard to please especially with rings he always finds something wrong with it. But this time he loves it . Thank you Overstock.

Big win
Drew, Red Sox pound Rays
Price walked off the mound flexing his left hand after surrendering a run-scoring single to David Ortiz on a 95-mph fastball. Manager Joe Maddon and a trainer rushed to ascertain the problem and the left-hander appeared to make no plea to remain in the game.
The Rays have lost in seven of his nine starts this season. Price has surrendered eight leads over his last six starts and been dogged by questions of about his velocity. His fastball has been tracked at an average of 2.2 mph slower this season than last, when he went 20-5 with a 2.56 ERA in 31 starts.
Will Middlebrooks hit his seventh homer of the year in the eighth off Kyle Farnsworth for a 9-2 Boston lead.

November 7, 2002 My weekend trip to Belgium and the Netherlands marked the two-month point in our semester abroad, as well as my first overnight train of the trip. I heard from other Centre students how great it was to hop onto an overnight car, crawl into bed, and wake up refreshed, hundreds of kilometers away in new country. I could not wait to try this for myself during my Benelux vacation. The information my friends failed to pass along was that if one did not reserve one of these magical beds, he could not just show up and demand one. And he would not be surprised or enchanted by the new environment the next day, because he saw every bit of the transition from his upright seat, meticulously engineered to induce good posture over sleep at all costs. Although I arrived in Bruges, Belgium, less rested than I would have liked, this pleasant gothic city was relaxing enough for even the most frazzled tourist. Bruges is a classic example of how a city becomes great by losing its greatness. This canal-ringed city had been on par with London and Paris in the 14th century, but neighboring Antwerp soon offered an improved trading route that left Bruges too poor to replace its
beautiful old buildings in favor of the less attractive, more functional ones now found in Antwerp. A strange creature, progress. We knew beforehand that this trip would be different from most. The point would be to experience new cultures, not to photograph famous sites we learned of from other photographs in travel guides. The redundancy can become quite repetitive. This new cultural experience for Belgium, of course, is a culinary one. It was all we could do to squeeze in a tour between waffles and chocolates. Once our teeth were too rotten to chew any more, our group embarked for the next destination, Holland. Before we could take off, literally hours were needed to track down a place to
