> How does the attacker get the size of the compressed data without packet sniffing on the client
IP networks are very vulnerable in general. That's the threat model TLS is supposed to protect against -- it establishes a secure channel over an insecure network.
CRIME Attack Uses Compression Ratio of TLS Requests as Side Channel to Hijack Secure Sessions (threatpost)

Sorry, that was misleading. I meant any Ethernet segment where the traffic passes through, such as your office network or an Internet exchange point.

Should be "having access"

actually, this isn't enough by itself nowdays.
With most of the ethernet infrastructure being switches, you will only occasionally see packets destined for other systems.
You can start playing games with ARP to try and route all traffic on the network through your machine instead of the router it is supposed to go through, but this sort of thing tends to cause other problems, so it's far from stealthy.

Okay, so now your ISP or government has to be motivated enough to capture your traffic, and then somehow entice you to visit a specific web page while you have a secure session open to the target site, on the same browser. That is doable, I suppose, if you are desperate enough.
Speaking of which, whatever motivated Microsoft to make all browser windows operate in the same session context in the first place? Chrome used to correctly operate with separate sessions for separately created tabs or window groups, but then they changed to have shared sessions like Microsoft.
That is the _real_ cause of this browser vulnerability. If the browser manufacturers didn't share private data across what ought to be separate sessions, it would be impossible to implement a chosen plaintext attack on the session cookie from other random web pages in the first place.
>Or even anyone with a BGP router could force the Internet to route and hijack certain traffic through them, like when Pakistan took down YouTube all over the world.
"Anyone" with a BGP router cannot do this kind of thing. You have to have unfiltered BGP access, which any sane transit provider will only provide to other major transit providers - meaning Tier 1 and Tier 2 ISPs. Of course we are more or less completely vulnerable to them.
Posted Sep 14, 2012 0:40 UTC (Fri) by intgr (subscriber, #39733) [Link]
It's actually easier than that. When you visit *any* HTTP (non-secure) site, they can inject the necessary JavaScript code to carry out the attack.
> If the browser manufacturers didn't share private data across what ought to be separate sessions
Agreed. Personally I'd prefer restricting or policing how cross-domain requests are authenticated -- that would address many other attacks, too.
> "Anyone" with a BGP router cannot do this kind of thing
Right you are, but that's still way too many people and organizations to trust.

I was shocked once that our stub AS was not filtered at one of our upstream. I've checked - my bogus announcement propagated as far as AMS-IX, so I could (in theory) cause a major Internet disruption in Europe with only few lines of configuration.

........ Sorry, I need a few more seconds to compose myself, stop rolling on the floor laughing, and get back on my chair before I can reply. ;)
Two problems:
1. You're assuming that the internet has clear borders between "anyone with a BGP router" and "major transit providers". You're assuming it is difficult for anyone in the out-set to persuade anyone in the in-set to let them in. Bear in mind some parts of the "transit provider" set can be large clusters of quite small players (sometimes literally 1-man operations). Bear in mind the internet has been growing at a good pace, and is likely to continue to grow for some time, and that many in the "transit provider" set have a business model that depends on that growth happening.
2. Ignoring point 1, taking it as given a clear delineation criteria between the transit ASes and the edges (clear from the POV of the transit providers), and a transit provider set which are *all* strongly motivated to exclude any new entrants: You're assuming that a large percentage of transit providers are both, a) technically competent at specifying filters b) have a clear financial motivation to spend their resources on implementing operational processes to ensure new non-transit customers will consistently have filters applied. Even if the vast majority of transit providers meet assumption a (and it's not clear that's the case ☺), assumption b doesn't hold for most (at least, it's not immediately obvious to them). So, there isn't really a great pressure on them to reliably implement these filters, and so often they don't (because they generally don't, or because their processes aren't rigorous enough to ensure they reliably do).

The original poster claimed that "anyone with a BGP router" could do this, which is clearly not the case. One would hope that the various attempts to secure BGP route advertisements would have born some fruit by now, but apparently that isn't the case either.

Work to secure the BGP protocol is still quite a way away from being finished, never mind deployed.

Very friendly staff! I was not aware that I would get breakfast included in the price, so that was an added bonus. This is no fancy schamcy hotel, but for being this central, you get a lot for your money. I would recommend to friends and also stay there again. Lots of great middle eastern delicious foods nearby.

TUCSON - Executive chef Paul Wells from Savoy Opera House was here to make Southwest Sonoran Chili.
Here is what you need:
4 Anaheim Peppers
Oil to coat
1.5 cup shredded brisket
2 TBL oil
½ onion small diced
6 clove garlic minced
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp red pepper flakes
Salt to taste
2 cups vegetable stock
2 TBL dark Chili Powder
1 TBL oregano
1 TBL Spanish paprika
1 Lg Tomato
Queso Quesadilla Cheese
Queso Fresco
Fresh Tortillas
Step 1: Coat the Anaheim peppers with oil. Place under the broiler or on a very hot grill to char the skin.
Step 2: Place the charred anaheims in a ziplock bag and allow the heat to steam the skins off.
Step 3: Remove the skins from the Anaheim peppers and place a vertical slice along the length of the pepper and remove excess seeds. Place this aside.
Step 4: Heat a large sauce pan to medium heat. Add the oil and wait for it to come up to temperature. Sauté the onions and garlic until caramelized.
Step 5: Add black pepper, red pepper, salt, chili powder, oregano, and Spanish paprika. Stir for 10 seconds then add tomato, beef, and stock.
Step 6: Allow the mix to reduce by half. Adjust the seasoning and cool. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 7: Stuff the cooled mix into the roasted Anaheim peppers and place in an oven safe dish. Cover the chilies with queso quesadilla cheese and bake until melted.
Step 8: Once removed from the oven crumble queso fresco over the top as a garnish and serve with warm tortillas.

ST. JOHNS COUNTY. Fla. -- St. Johns County Fire Rescue saved three people after a boating accident Tuesday afternoon.
Fire officials say the accident happened around 3:30 p.m. on the shoals just north of the Matanzas inlet.
St. Johns County responded and found an approximately 16-foot fishing boat unmanned in the surf, and a second fishing boat helping two people from the water and one from the sandbar.
According to a news release, one of the victims was having a heart attack and a paramedic/rescue swimmer performed CPR. That patient was taken to Flagler Hospital in critical condition. The boat was later towed and secured by SJCFR marine rescue to a dock at Fort Matanzas.
No one else was injured and all three were wearing personal floation devices, according to SJCFR.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission is investigating the incident.

Vango Tempest 200
Vango Tempest 200
nice tent, but wrong one used to advertise it!!!
The tent I received is actually the latest 2012 version of the Tempest 200. NOT the one that you are using to advertise it. That's a 2011 model. Not a lot of difference to the main tent just the porch essentially. Your website was really slow to acknowledge the problem and then change the picture once I pointed out you were still selling using the wrong image. To be fair it was probably as cheap as you'll find the tent anywhere on the internet. I'm 6.2" and the tents big enough for me and a good size rucksack at 65L. Real weight was 2.95kg when I received it, that's dry remember. If you've decided on a 2 man (1 realistically) tent but don't want a piece of rubbish and want to spend around the 90/100 mark. this IMHO is about as good as you'll get in the UK. It's not super light weight, you'd be better with a tarp and bivi bag in the right months OR if you're just hard as. For a solid tent for trekking, camping it's a good tent. May find it's cheaper next years as models update as with most gear. happy Hunting.

Olga's story is the American Dream personified. Olga Erteszek immigrated to California during World War II with her attorney husband Jan Erteszek. With her husband unable to practice law in the U.S., Olga took advantage of being the daughter of a corsetiere. Olga took their $10.00 nest egg and rented a sewing machine. Working at her kitchen table, she created a lacy garter belt as she had watched her mother do as a child in Poland. Olga became known for her innovative uses of color and fabrics and soon expanded her product line to include bras, panties, slips and robes. Within 20 years, she was granted over 23 patents. Olga passed away in 1991 but her legend lives on through the superior engineering, comfort and beauty of today's Olga® garments.

Health Information Exchanges: More Innovation Needed
Health information exchanges (HIEs) are starting to expand their offerings to include analytic and care coordination functions that will be required for population health management, according to a new report from Chilmark Research. But market demand for these capabilities is growing faster than the HIEs' ability to innovate and overcome technical obstacles, the report said.
The focus of most HIEs, for example, is still on secure clinical messaging, which is inadequate for cross-enterprise care coordination. Queries of databases for patient information needed at the point of care account for only 2% to 10% of HIE transactions, the researchers estimated.
Other observers have also pointed out that health data exchange is still rudimentary. A recent Health Affairs study said that the most common functions of the 119 operational public HIEs were to transmit lab results, clinical summaries and discharge summaries. And while that paper said there had been a big increase in the number of HIEs capable of exchanging Continuity of Care Documents (CCDs) -- a requirement of Meaningful Use stage 1 -- few EHRs can yet integrate the data components of CCDs into their structured fields.
[ EHR interoperability continues to face hurdles. Read more: Sharing Electronic Medical Records Still Too Hard. ]
John Moore, CEO of Chilmark, told InformationWeek Healthcare that according to HIE vendors, most ambulatory EHRs haven't been able to generate CCDs that other EHRs can consume or do queries using a record locator service. Except for some limited use of query-based transactions to get basic data on patients presenting in ERs, he said, "The value that HIEs provide to the ambulatory sector, where 80% of care takes place, is pretty limited."
Specifically, the Chilmark report said, HIE capabilities are fairly effective for lab orders and results, clinician messaging and portal access. But they're poor for notifications and alerts and record queries across networks, and limited in areas like access to disparate EHR data, patient engagement, clinical quality reporting and analytics.
The report emphasized the need for HIEs to provide cross-enterprise capabilities in these and other areas such as care planning, medication reconciliation, and referral management. Yet Moore confirmed that private HIEs -- most of which are confined to single enterprises -- are growing much faster than the regional and statewide HIEs. He doubts that the many of the latter will develop sustainable business models, but acknowledges that private HIEs may not be able to collect all of the required data.
"There's possibly a role for public HIEs if they can provide fairly lightweight services," he said. "For example, they could show where patients are going out of network. That's the big issue right now for organizations with capitated contracts."
Meanwhile, he pointed out, HIE vendors are no longer vying to build exchanges funded by government grants. The Office of the National Coordinator of Health IT (ONC) expended around $750 million, he said, on statewide HIEs and Beacon communities. "Now all that money has been allocated," he said. "That's why some of the bigger players that have made a run at this market have pulled out. They didn't capitalize on that market opportunity and so they said, 'We're out of here.'"
Among the companies that have exited the HIE market, the report said, are Verizon and ACS. Also contributing to the market's consolidation are purchases of leading HIE vendors. Besides the acquisitions of Axolotl and Medicity a couple of years ago by United's Optum unit and Aetna, respectively, Humana recently bought Certify Data Systems, used by many Cerner customers, and Allscripts has purchased dbMotion, which is popular among its clients.
The strongest HIE companies, according to Chilmark, are Medicity, Orion Health (an independent), and RelayHealth (owned by McKesson). Certify, dbMotion, and InterSystems are ranked in the second tier, and the third tier includes CareEvolution, OptumInsight, and Surescripts/Kryptiq.
In terms of progress toward the capabilities that the market wants, Chilmark gives the highest score to CareEvolution, a small Minneapolis-based firm that has robust analytics. Close behind CareEvolution are GSI Health, based in New York, and Alere.
However, there's still a big gap between what provider organizations need and what current HIEs can deliver. "HCOs [health care organizations] need more from their HIEs than ever before -- more functionality, more use cases and better reliability, availability and serviceability," noted a Chilmark blog post. "No vendor is remotely close to being able to assemble an HIE 2.0 solution right now."
User Rank: Apprentice
I agree that HIEs do not have the necessary capabilities to handle the market demand for information right now. I really donGÇÖt see the public sector HIEs improving much in this case as the funding is all but cut off now that the government is no longer providing it. Instead I see private HIEs taking a more prominent role and hopefully in the near future we can see these private HIEs start to work together in order to better their respective providers and in turn provider better information exchanges.

I always seem to make salad for supper on the night my husband is most hungry and a hearty meal when he comes home without an appetite. I could be a good wife and let him know ahead of time what we're eating, so he could prepare his stomach accordingly, but why ruin the surprise? Besides, if I make salad for dinner you better believe there's going to be dessert. It's all about balance. :)
The first night I made this we gobbled it down in no time flat and I was craving it for days afterwards. So much so, that I put it on the menu again for the next week.
It uses my favourite Greek Dressing, which is tangy and packed with flavour - it's a breeze to throw together and stores well at room temperature for quite a while. The chicken is marinated in the dressing, soaking up all that flavour, then threaded onto skewers and cooked on the grill. Throw together a simple salad, with the same dressing, while the meat cooks and you have dinner on the table in no time.
On super-hot days, when appetites are practically non-existent, it makes a light and tasty dinner. But just to make sure, I like to serve it with a side of Foccacia. That way, if James comes home extra hungry he doesn't have to starve (or eat a double portion of dessert). :)

Safe use of machinery in manufacturing
Every year hundreds of people are seriously injured at work because the machines they work on are not safe.
The Department of Labour (now the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment) has a three-year project under way with the aim of reducing the number of workplace accidents involving unguarded and inadequately guarded machinery.
Health and safety inspectors are visiting manufacturing businesses across the country to raise employers' awareness of proper machine guarding and remind them of their duties under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992.
The Ministry's safe use of machinery in manufacturing project is part of the Manufacturing Sector Action Plan.

The working people of Sri Lanka celebrate International Workers' Day this year enthused by their ability to proceed towards development and peace, as the paths to development that were hitherto obstructed by terrorism are now open to the people of our country, stated President Mahinda Rajapaksa in his message for the International Workers' Day. As one who has achieved leadership with the unstinted support of the working people, I have the satisfactory commitment to work towards achieving their aspirations, he added. The government will continue to bring greater relief to the working people to ensure their participation in the tasks of economic development. We trust that their cooperation will be with the government to overcome all challenges and obstacles in the path of progress, President Rajapaksa said. Following is the full text of the message: I extend my warmest greetings to the working people of Sri Lanka who proudly join their brethren abroad to mark this International Workers' Day.
It is our firm determination on this International Workers' Day to make Sri Lanka the Wonder of Asia through national development achieved with the participation of the working people.

"Teaching Leadership Principles to Youth," Guidebook for Parents and Leaders of Youth, 27
An important part of a young man's and young woman's preparation for adulthood is the development of leadership skills and qualities. Today's youth are the fathers, mothers, and Church leaders of tomorrow. A primary purpose of the Aaronic Priesthood and Young Women achievement programs is to help youth develop leadership skills and qualities.
Parents and youth leaders should use the achievement programs to provide youth with leadership experiences in the home, in quorums and classes, and in Mutual activities. For example, youth can learn leadership in the home as they teach a lesson in family home evening, lead a family discussion, plan a family activity, or help a younger brother or sister. They also learn leadership as they plan and carry out activities in their priesthood quorums and Young Women classes. Leaders should take every opportunity to give youth leadership experiences.
Aaronic Priesthood and Young Women leaders have a particular responsibility to teach leadership skills to class and quorum presidencies. These skills can be taught in presidency meetings.
The following leadership principles should be taught to youth:
• Follow the Savior's example.
• Develop the character traits of a leader:
• Fulfill the tasks of a leader:
Resources available to help parents and leaders teach young men and young women leadership principles are "Gospel Teaching and Leadership," section 16 of the Church Handbook of Instructions, Book 2: Priesthood and Auxiliary Leaders (35209), and the Priesthood and Auxiliary Leaders' Guidebook (31178).

Once again I've spent way too much time on this!
Including an all new look to the home page and lots of internal stuff. The biggest change is the ability to log in, for immediate family this will allow you to see more stuff, including yourself.
As a family member you will also have the ability to submit additions for inclusion on the web site. Across the top of each person's page are tabs, choosing the worksheet tab will bring up a Family Group Sheet (FGS) pre-populated with all current data. On the FGS you will be able to add children, parents, dates, whatever. While I am hoping to get lots of new information on ancesters I also hope you will keep me updated with those in the present! Oddly enough the hardest part of genealogy is keeping up with current, living people.
Email me for a logon and password.
Check out some of the fun stuff in the left hand box. Statistics will show the 2nd longest lived ancester is one Effie Captola Hastings who lived almost 108 years. She was the wife of Allen Roy (Bill) Cole and I'm pretty sure my mother and her siblings knew her. Dates and Anniversaries lists all known life events - who shares your birthday? Videos is a work in progress with a non-genealogical video to look at, still trying to figure out how to make it play. Histories will show the first 40 pages of a work I did for my mother and her siblings with some famous and some infamous folks mentioned.
On the right hand side, the Quick Links box allows family members to navigate to their section immediately. The Links box contains links to my non-genealogy web site and the Marble Orchard - a photo essay of some of my favorite headstones. Other Families is a list of work done for non-family members.

Canada has a policy objective of non-proliferation, reduction and elimination of nuclear weapons. We pursue this aim persistently and energetically, consistent with our membership in NATO and NORAD and in a manner sensitive to the broader international security context.
Canada's nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament policy is rooted in the three "pillars" of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT): non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, disarmament of nuclear weapons stockpiles and the right of all NPT states to the peaceful uses of nuclear energy in accordance with non-proliferation obligations. In addition, Canadian policy also recognizes the utility of counter-proliferation initiatives to address non-state actors and states that attempt to circumvent the international nuclear non-proliferation regime.
Our responsibility is to strengthen Canada's national security by formulating, advocating and negotiating effective nuclear non-proliferation, arms control, and disarmament policies, strategies and agreements in collaboration with other divisions within DFAIT and with other government departments and agencies.

The reason Japan's figure may be so high is not due to a low unemployment rate (4.6% would be close or below NAIRU in most other countries and would actually indicate a labor market where there would indeed be a shortage of employees, but not Japan, where this is a somewhat high unemployment rate. By contrast, Australia's macroeconomic numbers may indicate a tight labor market.) Instead, its maybe due to hiring managers that are self-satisfied and insular, and where skills and aptitude most be balanced against the all-important "fitting in" given the Japanese corporate culture of being a "company man". Comfort level for the hiring manager and feeling of hierarchy, order, subservient subordinates, and assimilation matter more than skills and aptitude. If your company has sluggish revenue growth and little ensuing pressure to expand your team, why not wait it out for your vision of the "perfect" candidate?
Despite high unemployment companies say they find it hard to hire people
UNEMPLOYMENT has reached record levels in many countries. Yet more than a third of employers around the world are still having trouble filling vacancies, according to a ManpowerGroup survey of nearly 40,000 employers in 41 countries. Workers in skilled trades (electricians, plumbers, bricklayers and so on) are in shortest supply, followed by engineers and sales people. Talent shortages are most acute in Asia, particularly in Japan where an ageing population is exacerbating the problem. Only in France has the proportion of employers struggling to find appropriate talent increased significantly since last year (from 20% to 29%). In Italy, by contrast, it has halved from 29% to 14%. Overall, employers are less concerned about the impact of skills shortages than they were in 2011. This may be because companies are becoming more comfortable conducting business in an uncertain environment where talent shortages persist.

Series: Evolution Basics (35 entries)

Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
"It's tempting to think that the church needs to decide quickly which of these [original sin] scenarios is right, and which ones must be wrong. I believe the church is better served by taking its time, holding several different scenarios in tension for a while as we think through the implications of each."
Where is human evolution going? Where has human evolution been? A roundup of stories from the past few weeks.
Once we recognize that no one takes the text literally, and that we have often failed to account for the details in the text regarding the time of day, we can begin anew to try to understand the text as an ancient text rather than as a modern one. As such, we must begin with the idea that the text operates in the world of omens, not the world of physics and astronomy.
"…why a man should be hanged, because it has not yet pleased God to give him his spirit, I confess, I am yet to understand. Certainly to think by a halter to let new light into the understanding, or by the tortures of the body to heal the errors of the mind, seems to me like applying a plaister to the heel, to cure a wound in the head; which doth not work upon the seat of the disease…"
Old Testament scholar and BioLogos ECF grantee John H. Walton spent the first seven months of 2013 traveling around the United States and fifteen other countries lecturing on Genesis 1 - 3. In this series, we feature John's reflections on his world tour and the insights he gained from his conversations.
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
Join astrobiologist Stephen Freeland for a look into the nature of information and the origins of life on earth. (These posts were originally published as a paper in the ASAs academic journal, PSCF, and are reprinted here with permission.)
This series, by Old Testament scholar Richard S. Hess, was first published as an appendix to Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith (Downers Grove: IVP Academic; Nottingham: Apollos, 2011).
If your core value is serving God and you believe that anything but a literal interpretation of the Bible is disobedient to God, you can't hear any of the scientific arguments, and that was the way it was with me. Until I dealt with the loyalty question, I could not proceed to the science.
The gift of Love must be the gift of freedom, the gift of a degree of letting-be, and this can be expected to be true of all creatures to the extent that is appropriate to their proper character. It is in the nature of dense snow fields that they will sometimes slip with the destructive force of an avalanche. It is the nature of lions that they will seek their prey. It is the nature of cells that they will mutate, sometimes producing new forms of life, sometimes grievous disabilities, sometimes cancers.
With a high-school level understanding of science and theology, I was convinced by this "either-or" argument and, to my knowledge, became the first Young Earth Creationist in my local Nazarene church. I knew the enemy and the enemy had a name. It was Evolution.
These excerpts from Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design, written by BioLogos president Deborah Haarsma and her husband Loren Haarsma, offer a sampling of the book's many topics, from exploring our disagreements and agreements on origins as Christians to explaining scientific processes to looking at how we read Genesis.
The Galápagos Islands were not a distinct "center of creation," but a workshop for evolution in which an ancestral species made it to the yet uncolonized island and underwent a massive degree of speciation to adapt to the environment of the island. This is precisely what one would expect if the species of islands had arisen by evolution.
I had spent so much time using the Bible as evidence to prove my point that I hadn't bothered to consider its intended purpose. It was as if I had been given a nice new pair of shoes, but instead of wearing them and letting them take me where I needed to go, I had been using them to kill bugs, prop open doors, and fix wobbly table legs.
In our current culture, we're defined by our jobs. It's having a vocation. I wanted to shift away from that. I didn't want to be a doctor first and foremost, or a scientist, but one who praises God.
BioLogos interim web editor Emily Ruppel recently traveled to Boston for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference, where she took an afternoon off from lecture-going to catch up with Doug Lauffenburger, head of the biological engineering department at MIT and a member of the American Scientific Affiliation.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."

The hotel is very comnfortable, the staff competent and very friendly. The only problem is the accessibility, because the sign-posting should be inproved. Also, in the home page hotel description, a remark might be helpful, that the hotel is immediately after the motorway exit. Otherwise we were extremly satisfied

I had a particularly wonkish win yesterday.
Bear with me: yesterday morning, I learned that the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's Programming and Allocations Committee unanimously rejected a recommendation from staff that the Commission revise language in the TDA Article 3 funding requirements that would eliminate the requirement that municipalities with a population greater than 10,000 maintain a bicycle advisory committee (BAC) in order to receive said funding. Hooray!
Like I said: wonkish. As the hip hoppers say, lemme break it down...
We like BACs and BPACs (bicycle and pedestrian advisory committees) and other public institutions in which roadway projects are reviewed by a panel of people who know a thing or two about biking and walking and the public has a chance to attend and offer input. We think it's important that, as our region pursues a "complete streets" paradigm and we all try to combat climate change and obesity, we give some serious, mandated attention to making our built environment accessible and comfortable for people who want to travel by bike or by foot.
TDA Article 3 (TDA-3) funding is a relatively modest source of funding for bicycle projects. It's money from the state that gets distributed to the Bay Area counties via the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). As with any funding, there are caveats, one of which is the aforementioned requirement that the municipality asking for the money has to run the projects past its local BAC (BPACs work as well).
Many of the BACs and BPACs that exist in our area today were originally formed to comply with this requirement. However, some municipalities have been working around the requirement by using their county's BPAC instead. This means that the projects are reviewed by people who don't live in the project community, and that members of the community would generally have to travel farther to a meeting they probably would not have occasion to hear about, if they want to learn more or share their input. We think this is not the best way to go about doing things.
So, when MTC staff wrote up a report recommending that the BAC requirement be scrapped from TDA-3, we were not happy hippos. Fortunately, we were not alone. While we wrote our own letter (PDF, 640 KB) to MTC staff expressing our concerns, Marty Martinez of Safe Routes to School National Partnership gathered 17 California and Bay Area organizations to co-sign a letter (PDF, 3 MB) to the Programming and Allocations Committee, which was scheduled to vote on the staff recommendation.
And it worked! Commissioners on the Committee (including Santa Clara County Supervisor Dave Cortese) voted unanimously against the recommendation. According to those at the meeting, the Committee also expressed the sentiment that if MTC has a requirement for funding, it better well be enforced. Could more BPACs be on the horizon?

More BPACs... or more BPAC involvement?
I don't know that 'more BPACs' will improve things so much as more citizens getting involved in the existing ones (which of course I understand is a challenge with careers, family, etc.). I went to a few Santa Clara BAC meetings in the past when I was too busy to get more seriously involved, but lately I want to make it more of a priority and also am interested in witnessing how other local BAC/BPACs conduct themselves. I've searched around for dates and details and not all city (and county) web sites do much to advertise their existence. I understand SVBC's resources are limited, but my suggestion is to have a local directory page on this site. The readership of this site are prime candidates for local involvement (I assume), and having all of the options (and schedules) laid out in one place would drive both citizen involvement and web traffic here. Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, VTA, I assume San Jose... does Campbell have a BPAC? Mt. View? Just a static page of links with some text describing the jurisdiction, mission, and schedule periodicity should be minimal maintenance. Just a thought.
Thanks for the article (and your advocacy) BTW! What does TDA-3 funding under the MTC compete with? New curbs on San Tomas Expressway, Ford Expeditions for VTA Supervisors, or the county helicopter that flies over my house several times daily on patrol? I'm (seriously) curious to learn more...

Pakistan Earthquake: MSF Relief OperationsJanuary 11, 2006 General overviewAfter several weeks of dry weather, the start of severe winter weather brought sleet and icy rain to Muzaffarabad, Bagh, and Mansehra districts and up to five feet of snow at higher altitudes. Many roads were blocked by landslides and snow. In some places, road access will be difficult or impossible in the coming weeks and months. Therefore Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) will continue to use helicopters in certain areas (especially Muzaffarabad and Bagh districts) to transport staff and relief items, and to refer severe patients to hospitals at lower altitudes. Due to the stormy weather large numbers of tents are leaking or collapsed under the weight of the falling snow, exposing the population even more to the cold, rain, mud, and snow. Inadequate shelter in the more remote regions can result in more displacement as people seek better conditions in the camps in the valleys, increasing pressure on already insufficient facilities. Though MSF teams have not yet seen any severe health complications related to the precarious living conditions, there is fear that this can rapidly change in the weeks to come. MSF's medical activities continued as normal in Muzaffarabad and Mansehra, but have been slowed down in Bagh district due to health centers not being accessible anymore (to staff and patients). Main pathologies observed remain similar to previous weeks: diarrhea, respiratory infections or skin infections. Medical teams are now visiting the tented camps to provide medical support when needed. In Mansehra, surgical activities continue but fewer cases are related to the earthquake. MSF also provides physiotherapy in medical villages and other places across the district. In Bagh and in Muzaffarabad district, plastic sheeting distributions were organized to support people with inadequate shelters in the tented camps. In Mansehra and Muzaffarabad, MSF is continuing large scale distributions including tents, blankets, shelter kits, and kerosene heaters. In Bagh, Mansehra, and Muzaffarabad, mental health activities are still going on and it is foreseen that needs may increase with living conditions getting worse. Water-and-sanitation activities are also ongoing and will be crucial as living conditions may induce illnesses. MSF teams will monitor closely the impact of the weather on health issues. Medical activities:The number of patients with trauma directly related to the earthquake is now very small. But with the onset of winter health concerns in the IDP camps and at higher altitudes continue to grow. MSF has not yet seen a major increase in the number patients or deaths directly related to the climatic conditions. Still the potential for a health crisis remains high because of the cold weather and the poor sanitation and crowded conditions in the IDP camps. In some areas at the moment, referrals of critically ill patients are only possible by helicopter. In Muzaffarabad district, the number of medical consultations has remained stable at about 2,700 per week, with most patients suffering from diarrhea, respiratory infections, or skin infections. In Hattian, MSF has started to build a temporary hospital in cooperation with the Ministry of Health; it is expected to be operational by mid-January. In Lamnian, 900 children were vaccinated after a suspected measles case shortly before the start of snowfall. In Leepa, one severe patient was referred by helicopter, but three more were snowed in before transport could be organized.
In Bagh town, the tent hospital (replacing the destroyed district hospital) continues to function well. Some of the tents had to be reinforced, but sustained no damage as a result of the snowfall. The first containers for the future hospital have arrived in Islamabad and will soon be shipped to Bagh. The health center located near the MSF compound is still functioning. The number of consultations have increased after a huge drop during the first day of rain and snow. The remote health centers of Malot, Bir Pani, and Chikar could not be reached by the MSF teams for a few days due to blocked roads, but the road conditions are improving. In Bhedi–a isolated area high in the mountains where MSF opened a health center that serves more than 23,000 people–the health center suffered some severe setbacks as part of the temporary structure collapsed under the weight of the five feet of snowfall that came down over a 36-hour period. A rotation of the team took place with the aim to repair the damage to the base. Consultations continued with 39 patients on Thursday, January 5. In general, the snowfall could prevent the population from gaining access to many of the MSF-run and -supported facilities, and the teams are paying close attention to this issue. In the Mansehra field hospital, 500 surgical interventions have been carried out since its opening on November 24. Now most interventions are for the cleaning of infected wounds. MSF medical personnel have also been visiting the makeshift camps on the Mansehra- Balakot route, in order to identify the wounded people who require transfer to the hospital. So far, 100 people have been identified for transfer. In the emergency room, MSF teams together with Pakistani hospital staff carry out an average of 1,200 consultations per week. Every day, an average of 10 patients needing intensive medical care are stabilized in the field hospital and then referred to the main hospital in Abbottabad, as the internal medical wards of the Mansehra district hospital are still not functional. An MSF physiotherapist, together with a team of Pakistani volunteers, carries out rehabilitative care for hospitalized post-surgical patients. A physiotherapy center has also been opened in Balakot in order to provide follow up to many of the wounded who came from this area. In association with local organizations, MSF has installed three medical villages inside Mansehra town, with a capacity to accommodate 25 families each. Patients who no longer require hospitalization and who cannot go back home, but still require medical follow up, are transferred to the medical villages. An MSF physiotherapist, psychologist, and physician continue to check on the patients. MSF is now replacing the tents in the medical villages with semi permanent structures which are more resistant to the weather. Mental HealthThe deteriorating conditions of course do little to improve the mental health of the population, traumatized by the earthquake and the continuing aftershocks (the last being felt on December 29). In Muzaffarabad mental health counseling is continuing. In Lamnian, MSF has initiated an assessment of mental health needs and training of national staff. In Mansehra district, a team of three psychologists provides care for patients suffering from trauma following the earthquake. Four hundred patients have been followed up since October. Currently two hundred patients in the hospital and medical villages receive psychological care. Non-Food Items Distribution
With the recent harsh weather conditions, distributions of plastic sheeting were organized in camps in the districts for people with inadequate shelters. Some 5,000 to 7,500 people received sheeting in near Bagh and another 5,000 kits were distributed in the district of Muzaffarabad district where about 80 percent of tents are not winterized. In Bagh large scale distributions ended on December 31, 2005. In total, 83,220 blankets and 8,321 construction kits–including iron sheets, tools and plastic sheeting–together with cooking and hygiene kits have been distributed. More than 61,000 people in the district have benefited from the distributions. In Muzaffarabad and Mansehra, large-scale distributions continue. On the Mansehra- Balakot route relief items for 13,974 families (92,994 people) living in makeshift settlements were distributed. The items are adapted to specific needs, but range from blankets to cooking pots, to soap, jerry cans, and to tarpaulins and tents. In Muzaffarabad district, thus far MSF has distributed 11,400 tents, 58,000 blankets, and 34,400 hygiene kits. Additionally, heaters are also being distributed in order to help the people cope with the cold temperatures (1 heater and 40 liters of kerosene per family). Some 12,259 displaced families have been targeted for this distribution, so far 6,250 families have received heaters. Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene AssistanceIn Muzaffarabad, MSF is closely monitoring the hygiene conditions in several IDP sites. Water bladders have been set up, 900 latrines installed, and hundreds of hygiene kits distributed in ten tented settlements. Due to the rain and snow and the rocky soil, some latrines were flooded and collapsed. During the winter months maintenance will demand a large share of attention and resources. Also in the town of Muzaffarabad, MSF supports two areas where 360,000 liters of chlorinated water are distributed daily. Nineteen hygiene promoters have been trained and operate in eleven camps in Muzaffarabad; 2,838 tent-to-tent visits were undertaken (13,400 individuals reached). Activities include "cleanliness drive" with prizes for children who collect garbage and bucket distributions for pour-and-flush latrines. In Bagh, teams had to interrupt their work for a few days because of the weather. Until then, several water supply ramps had been installed in Bagh town and water- and-sanitation facilities established in IDP sites of the city and in many villages and camps around Bagh, Mallot, Bir Pani, and Chikar. In many of those places, the teams are supervising the operations to repair the water-supply system. MSF also installed more than 380 latrines for an estimated population of 12,000. In camps, MSF's approach combines hygiene promotion with water-and-sanitation work. Special attention is given to women and children by promoting regular hand washing, specific awareness about infectious diseases and safe disposal of human excrement. Water-and-sanitation facilities have been provided in the medical villages set up in Mansehra, as well as in Mansehra District Hospital. The MSF teams are currently concentrating on providing sanitation facilities for the displaced living in 22 makeshift camps on the Mansehra — Balakot road. A total of 150 latrines have been constructed so far. Additionally, the water supply in 11 camps has been rehabilitated. Tags: Pakistan, South Asian Earthquake, Natural Disaster |

Pat Healy Tests Positive for Marijuana After UFC 159, Stripped of Win Over Jim Miller and $135,000 in Bonuses [UPDATED]
(Short version: We're going to pretend this fight never happened, just like we're going to pretend marijuana is a performance-enhancing drug. / Photo via MMAFighting.com)
The greatest night of Pat Healy's career has been retroactively changed to some old bullshit. Following his fantastic rear-naked choke victory over Jim Miller last month at UFC 159 — which earned Healy Fight of the Night and Submission of the Night awards totaling $130,000 — "Bam Bam" failed his drug test, coming up positive for marijuana. As a result, Healy's win has been changed to a no-contest, he's been suspended from competition from 90 days, and he's being forced to return the aforementioned $130k in bonus money and his $5,000 win bonus.
Healy confirmed the news in an official statement:
"I would like to start off by apologizing to the UFC, Jim Miller, the MMA community, it's fans, my family, teammates and coaches for my positive testing for marijuana after my UFC 159 fight with Jim Miller. I was fully aware of the UFC and State Commission's drug policies and made poor life choices. I stand behind the UFC and the State Commission's disciplinary actions. I support efforts to make MMA and sports a clean, safe and fair place to compete…

Team: Louisville Cardinals
2012 W-L: 11-2 (5-2 in the Big East)
Head Coach: Charlie Strong (25-14; fourth season)
Returning Starters: 14 (5 Offense, 9 Defense)
Just to get this out of the way first: the Louisville Cardinals will not be playing in the ACC until 2014, but obviously we're covering them anyway. In their first and only season in the newly-formed American Athletic Conference, the Cards are the league's best team by a mile and have a very real chance at going unbeaten. Their star junior quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater, also has a very good shot at winning the Heisman Trophy. This all we know. But what we're unsure of is the effect of those pressures on this team's performance. Despite being the best team in the then-Big East last season, Louisville still managed to lose two conference games and escape several close calls versus overmatched opponents out of conference. So despite their blend of youth and experience, and a huge victory over Florida in the Sugar Bowl, there's still a lot of uncertainty around this team, believe it or not.
One area where we can be virtually certain about the Cardinals is the quarterback position, though. Bridgewater more than proved himself to be the real deal in 2012, putting up over 3,700 passing yards to go with 27 TDs and just eight interceptions — capped by another strong performance against the Gators, one of the country's top defenses. He's been in the system long enough that he knows it like the back of his hand. The only concern could be his offensive line, which says goodbye to center Mario Benavides and also installs a sophomore, Abraham Garcia, at the all-important left tackle spot. Overall size across the board isn't great, but Bridgwater's agile enough to allude tacklers (despite needing to add a few pounds to his 193-pound frame if he wants to be able to absorb a few more hits).
Lucky for Bridgewater, his supporting playmakers should also be able to bail him out when necessary. Last year's backfield was racked with injuries, so off the bat, it'll be a huge help to have both Dominique Brown and Senorise Perry healthy. While Brown missed all of last season, he managed over 500 yards rushing in 2011 and Perry had over 700 last season himself. The two players have completely opposite rushing styles, and that could help improve upon 2012′s paltry 122 yards per game on the ground. At wideout, Bridgewater will have his pick of talented targets, as DeVante Parker and Damian Copeland alone combined for 90 catches and 12 touchdowns. Ball distribution was a bigger key last year though, as 11 different players caught 10 or more balls in their 24th-ranked passing offense, and it will be again if they're hoping to achieve similar success in that regard.

Low-calorie, fiber-rich, and nutrient-dense, fruits and vegetables top every runner's ideal grocery list. But what should you buy at this time of year, when supermarkets are stocked with out-of-season green beans, tomatoes, and strawberries that are tough, mealy, or flavorless? Head to the freezer cases. Frozen produce is just as healthy, sometimes more nutritious, and often better tasting, says Rebecca Scritchfield, RD, a sports dietitian and ultramarathoner. A few key tips to keep in mind: Choose frozen produce without sweeteners or sauces, which add fat, sugar, and sodium. Avoid bags with large icy chunks, which indicate they've thawed and been refrozen—this degrades the flavor and texture, says Scritchfield. And with a wide variety of options, think beyond tossing frozen strawberries in your postrun smoothie. Here are innovative ways to use frozen fruits and vegetables to boost flavor and nutrients in every winter meal.Learn 8 new rules for healthy eating

Easy to set up in a soft soil, but will need a tool to dig holes for legs in hard soil. Will work best in winds under 10mph. Had deer cross a field 250 yds. to check it out. Really lifelike from a distance.

Comments about Phantom Decoys HD-Series Buck Decoy:
Product uses a very stiff type of plastic that holds it's shape very well. Comes rolled up and is carried rolled up. Make sure you try it at home and pay close attention to the directions to roll it the opposite way for a few minutes before setting it up so that it will stay flat and not curl up on you. Also takes minimal wind to make it move a bit and appear even more life like.

The legs are rods, but I had whitetails come within 10ft. of it and never spooked.Answered on 12/10/2009 by Stinkbait from Dallas, TX
Does this look as real as the photo shows and how easy does the head move
im thinking to make it where i can move the head via a string from a tree limbAsked on 8/21/2009 by seisgunner74 from Chipley Fla1 answer
It looks exactly like the pictures, very realistic. It has velcro between the head and body section, you loosen a bolt and the velcro, reposition the head, re-attach the velcro and tighten the bolt to hold the head in the new position. I suppose if you removed the velcro and loosened the bolt you could make the head bob, but the decoy is light weight so some fishing line around the antlers would impart movement as well.Answered on 11/5/2009 by MJD from West Central IL
