Chemsil Silicones Inc. has introduced a 35% active cationic emulsion for improved conditioning deposition in hair care applications. Emulsil CC-44 (INCI: Amodimethicone (and) Cetrimonium Chloride (and) Trideceth-12) combines amodimethicone with a non-tallow derived quaternary amine surfactant.
The emulsion offers formulators cost effective performance along with the benefits from advanced emulsion technology. In keeping with the latest regulatory directives, the emulsion utilizes a preservative system that does not release formaldehyde and is paraben free. With an average particle size that is 15% smaller than competitive products, the emulsion provides improved deposition of the active ingredients across the entire hair shaft resulting in improved conditioning, frizz control, softness, wet and dry comb.
Beta site testing showed a marked improvement in the look and feel on a wide range of hair types according to Robert Griffiths, VP of Chemsil. "We are excited to bring this type of technical advancement to the hair care industry in a cost effective vehicle."
The emulsion is recommended at 1-5% as a conditioning additive for hair care products such as shampoos, rinse off and leave in conditioners, hair colorants and styling aids. Benefits include: improved hair conditioning, decreased fly-aways, improved coverage and spreading, improved wet and dry combing and improved formula stability.
Practical Modern Hair Science covers the pertinent issues related to surfactants and provides a detailed description of tests to substantiate claims. A sample of other areas covered in this book: Measuring color, color formulation, the effects of aging on hair, medical conditions affecting hair, and advances in hair styling written by an impressive list of hair science experts.

Signs of 'fiscal cliff' compromise?
How close are we to a deal?

You're watching...
How close are we to a deal?

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
-- in the White House is congress seeks a deal to keep the economy from heading over that fiscal cliff we've been talking so much about.
Welcome to the second -- happening now I'm generally I'm John Scott once again the economy edges closer to that cliff last time lawmakers punted the can down the road well now there might be enough political pressure on both sides.
To reach some kind of compromise.
House majority leader Eric Cantor telling Fox News earlier that everyone wants a deal otherwise come January 1 taxes go up for everybody.
We don't think that raising tax rates is something that's good for this economy that will help grow jobs and so what we have said is there -- ways for the federal government to -- -- more revenue if we grow this economy engaged in tax reform that's the proposal we've got on the table.
The White House today adding more pressure warning all the uncertainty could hurt consumer confidence.
Adding yet another drag on an ailing economy several high profile senators making it clear on the Sunday talk shows that taxes remain a key issue.
I'm willing to generate revenue is fair to ask my party deferred revenue on the table were below historic averages how will not raise tax rates to do it our cap deductions.
I would be very much opposed to raising tax rates.
But I do believe we can close a lot of loopholes they have to go up either real tax rates are effective tax rates there's ways of doing.
Secondly though we've got to close some significant new polls.
Brett -- is the anchor of special report -- maybe we can get an explanation from you these Republicans are talking about.
Raising revenue but not raising tax rates how they do that.
Basically they close.
Tax loopholes they put a cap on deductions.
So another words for high income earners.
Let's say the cap was 50000 dollars you can -- and deductions they don't specify what specific deductions it would be but that's the cap.
Of tax deductions you could taken.
Thereby after that point you don't get any more deductions so the amount of taxes you pay day.
Goes up now this is not -- John this is what.
Really Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.
Were running on as they talked about it they got hammered again and again for not being specific.
On what tax deductions and loopholes we're going to close.
But this was the line for the Republican standard bearer of the candidate.
So when you hear these senators and congressman talking about that and not raising tax rates.
It's not a new.
Position it's not a backing down.
On on some stance it's really what the stance -- so I think -- at the the beginning part the ten yard line if you will.
Of this whole fiscal cliff negotiation.
-- with a lot.
To go.
What what are you hearing about which side is willing to budge I mean this president just won reelection pretty convincingly promising to raise tax rates on the wealthiest Americans.
Republicans lost seats in the US senate what's the motivation for Democrats to blink here.
Right I mean it's a tough position negotiating wise for Republicans to be -- but the key point here is that you're starting to hear things from Republicans.
That they are willing to talk and begin to negotiate at the table they're not.
In a great position for that negotiation but the -- key question is whether President Obama is going to take this moment to get Democrats to the table on entitlement reform.
Medicaid Medicare Social Security.
And whether any of that can be specific on the democratic side because remember while you're hearing all of this.
Backing off of the tax pledge in other words.
Willing to close these loopholes and cap deductions.
You're not hearing on the democratic side specific.
Changes to these entitlement programs which both sides will agree are the major drivers of the deficit and debt.
Listen if you.
Raise taxes as the administration wants to do now you don't in other words extend the bush -- tax cuts you raise 824.
Billion dollars over ten years.
Now the government the US government is funded it takes one point three billion dollars a day.
To fund the US government so you divide all of that do the math care than -- And basically you get about 65 days of funding for the US government just on the taxes.
So it doesn't get you too far in the big.
Big picture.
Well and and I've heard some Democrats saying maybe you wouldn't be such a bad thing to let the country go over the fiscal cliff at least for a short period of time.
That's one negotiation ploy.
If you're hearing that.
As well you know if you go past that deadline then the new congress could come back and retroactively.
I give them everyone a tax -- so those new congressmen.
And women.
And senators will be able to say that they -- a tax cut its all semantics here from the bottom line is what the president will bring what house speaker Boehner will bring.
And these closed door negotiations which you know will get a sense but probably won't get the back and -- Well 36 days left to get a deal done most of those days in December when not a lot usually happens in Washington it's going to be interesting thanks for watching of course Brett.
OK you can --

ITV4: Sports Life Stories

The first subject was Barry McGuigan. Next week, Gareth Thomas, with Lawrence Dallaglio, Dame Kelly Holmes, Ronnie O'Sullivan and Brian Lara to follow, amongst others. Eight programmes in all.
Johnny Cash on why he wears black: "I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down, livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town, I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime, but is there because he's a victim of the times."
Kinky Friedman on why he wears black: "So I don't have to wash my clothes as often."

Aye, watched it myself. Very emotional at times, as you might expect.Just watched the Fabrice Muamba episode. Well worth watching a repeat or on ITV player.
Remarkable bit for me was the consultant cardiologist who just happened to be in the crowd, who's speciality was restarting hearts that have stopped, and who eventually managed to pursuade the stewards to allow him on the pitch to help.
And he was only there because a relative couldn't attend.
I've not got a religious bone in my body but sometimes you just think some things were meant to happen.

The most popular mode of transportation is also one of the most dangerous in Phuket.
Renting a motorbike is readily available and most places will only ask to hold your passport along with a deposit. Driving a motorbike can be a fun way of exploring the island but it is best left to those who are experienced drivers. This is not a place for beginners.
Insurance on motorbikes is very limited – read the fine print – if you sign a rental agreement.

The Military and Veteran Vote Matters in 2012: Why are we killing kids that don't need to die? Why does Romney want to increase war budget by $2.1 trillion?
Tuesday, October 9th, 2012It is a military and veteran kind of day today.
I served honorably in the Armed Forces and it bothers me when politicians pretend to know about foreign policy or try to come off as being empathetic to our military when they dodged the draft. Did you know that Mitt Romney dodged the military? Romney avoided military service at the height of the fighting after high school by seeking and receiving four draft deferments according to Selective service records. Romney was of age to fight for our Country, but sought deferments instead. As a veteran of the United States Air Force, and as a female of the Armed Services, I will not vote for Mitt Romney. How can a man who "claims" to love our Country seek deferments in order to fight for her?
Is it really necessary for Mitt Romney to increase our war budget when our 'top brass' didn't ask for it? Mitt Romney wants to increase our war budget by $2.1 trillion. Imagine if we invested that here in our Homeland instead of abroad. We are tired of bombing countries only to rebuild their infrastructure. We need jobs HERE in our homeland and we cannot afford to piss away our tax payer dollars by constantly bombing other countries — especially during a slow economy.
Americans are sick and tired of war, and more importantly dependents and family members of soldiers serving in the Armed Forces are, too.
Bill Moyers Essay: Honoring a Fallen Soldier's Plea (VIDEO)
October 4, 2012"Why are we killing kids that don't need to die?"
That's the question Florida Congressman Bill Young was moved to ask after reading a letter written to him by Matthew Sitton, a young soldier who was killed in Afghanistan in August. In this powerful broadcast essay, Bill talks about the congressman's surprising change in perspective, the soldier who inspired him, and how that question needs to be posed to the two men now vying to be our Commander-in-Chief.

Audi's 2008 A3 offers a lot of car in a small package, but it carries its diminutive size with a solidity, both inside and out, that is unusual. In addition to an eager engine and one of the best interiors in its class, this five-door hatchback is a marvelous choice for those who want a car that combines the nimbleness of a sports car with the cargo capabilities of a mini-wagon. An optional S-Line Package combines a stiffer suspension with higher performance tires and a few pieces of body trim to make the front-wheel drive A3 into a well-mannered street racer, while the S-Line quattro A3 brings it all together to make for a sporty vehicle indeed.
Audi's 2008 A3 hatchback enters its third model year looking much like it did upon its debut. A tire pressure monitor is part of the standard equipment list for 2008, as are daytime running lights. The S-Line quattro model receives an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The A3, Audi's first hatchback for the U.S. market, celebrated its third birthday in 2008, continuing to tout itself as 'the first four-door car with the sportiness of a TT coupe.'

21L.005 Introduction to Drama (MIT)
Drama combines the literary arts of storytelling and poetry with the world of live performance. As a form of ritual as well as entertainment, drama has served to unite communities and challenge social norms, to vitalize and disturb its audiences. In order to understand this rich art form more fully, we will study and discuss a sampling of plays that exemplify different kinds of dramatic structure; class members will also participate in, attend, and review dramatic performances.
SP.769 Photovoltaic Solar Energy Systems (MIT)
This class will study the behavior of photovoltaic solar energy systems, focusing on the behavior of "stand-alone" systems. The design of stand-alone photovoltaic systems will be covered. This will include estimation of costs and benefits, taking into account any available government subsidies. Introduction to the hardware elements and their behavior will be included.
National Security and Intellectual Freedom
In fighting today's 'war on terror', how do the new post-9/11 national security laws, executive orders and policies infringe on our traditional freedoms of inquiry? Are they an important weapon in keeping Americans more secure? Do they benefit society and do they help keep us a free people? UCB faculty will discuss these issues in an evening that celebrates and honors the US Constitution of the 18th century.
The panelists are:
Michael Nacht, Dean of the Goldman School of Public Policy and natio
7.03 Genetics (MIT)
This course discusses the principles of genetics with application to the study of biological function at the level of molecules, cells, and multicellular organisms, including humans. The topics include: structure and function of genes, chromosomes and genomes, biological variation resulting from recombination, mutation, and selection, population genetics, use of genetic methods to analyze protein function, gene regulation and inherited disease.
Bioinformatics & Operational Research

7.012 Introduction to Biology (MIT)
The MIT Biology Department core courses, 7.012, 7.013, and 7.014, all cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Biological function at the molecular level is particularly emphasized and covers the structure and regulation of genes, as well as, the structure and synthesis of proteins, how these molecules are integrated into cells, and how these cells are integrated into multicellular systems and organism
24.903 Language and its Structure III: Semantics and Pragmatics (MIT)
This course gives an introduction to the science of linguistic meaning. There are two branches to this discipline: semantics, the study of conventional, "compositional meaning", and pragmatics, the study of interactional meaning. There are other contributaries: philosophy, logic, syntax, and psychology. We will try to give you an understanding of the concepts of semantics and pragmatics and of some of the technical tools that we use.
21W.747 Rhetoric (MIT)
This course uses the study of rhetoric as an opportunity to offer instruction in critical thinking. Through extensive writing and speaking assignments, students will develop their abilities to analyze texts of all kinds and to generate original and incisive ideas of their own. Critical thinking and original analysis as expressed in writing and in speech are the paramount goals of this class. The course will thus divide its efforts between an examination of the subject matter and an examination o
21L.704 Studies in Poetry - British Poetry and the Sciences of the Mind (MIT)
Do poems think? Recurrent images of the poet as an inspired lunatic, and of poetry as a fundamentally irrational art, have often fostered an understanding of poets and their work as generally extraneous to the work of the sciences. Yet poets have long reflected upon and have sought to embody in their work the most elementary processes of mind, and have frequently drawn for these representations on the very sciences to which they are thought to stand - and sometimes do genuinely stand - in opposi
17.881 Game Theory and Political Theory (MIT)
Increasingly, political scientists are using game theory to analyze strategic interactions across many different settings. Each of the sub-fields, to differing degrees, has seen game theoretic concepts enter its vocabulary, and students entering the profession will need to understand the potential and limits of game theory. This course aims to give students an entry-level understanding of the basic concepts of game theory, and how these concepts have been applied to the study of political phenom
21H.968J Nature, Environment, and Empire (MIT)
This course is an exploration of the relationship between the study of natural history, both domestic and exotic, by Europeans and Americans, and concrete exploitation of the natural world, focusing on the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
24.946 Linguistic Theory and the Japanese Language (MIT)
This course is a detailed examination of the grammar of Japanese and its structure which is significantly different from English, with special emphasis on problems of interest in the study of linguistic universals. Data from a broad group of languages is studied for comparison with Japanese. This course assumes familiarity with linguistic theory.
12.517 Dynamics of Complex Systems: Ecological Theory (MIT)
In this class we will critically review both classical works and recent literature on ecological theory. Emphasis will be on providing a theoretical and phenomenological foundation for the study of computational models. We will meet twice weekly for roundtable discussions.
24.242 Logic II (MIT)
This course begins with an introduction to the theory of computability, then proceeds to a detailed study of its most illustrious result: Kurt Gödel's theorem that, for any system of true arithmetical statements we might propose as an axiomatic basis for proving truths of arithmetic, there will be some arithmetical statements that we can recognize as true even though they don't follow from the system of axioms. In my opinion, which is widely shared, this is the most important single result
17.960 Foundations of Political Science (MIT)
This course continues from the fall semester. The course introduces students to the fundamental theories and methods of modern political science through the study of a small number of major books and articles that have been influential in the field. This semester, the course focuses on American and comparative politics.

21H.433 The Age of Reason: Europe in the 18th and 19th Centuries (MIT)
Has there ever been an "Age of Reason?" In the western tradition, one might make claims for various moments during Antiquity, the Middle Ages, and the Renaissance. In this class, however, we will focus on the two and a half centuries between 1600 and 1850, a period when insights first developed in the natural sciences and mathematics were seized upon by social theorists, institutional reformers and political revolutionaries who sought to change themselves and the society in which they lived.

Robert Pattinson & New Moon Top Moviefone's Year-End Poll
We all know what movie critics' like, since they've been getting together to announce the year's best since early December. But what about movie fans? Or at least those movie 200,000+ fans who've bothered to vote in a poll at Moviefone.com?
Michael Haneke's The White Ribbon was chosen — oops! Wrong poll. Let me try again:
At Moviefone.com, Chris Weitz's The Twilight Saga: New Moon was named best movie (global box office: $662 million) with more than 40 percent of the vote. The film's male star, Robert Pattinson, was chosen the sexiest actor, followed by his New Moon rival Taylor Lautner, the "male breakout star" of 2009. Megan Fox, the star of Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, was both the sexiest and the worst actress of the year. There are worse combos, you know?
Curiously, voters were markedly divided when it came to Revenge of the Fallen. Bay's saga about the eternal fight between robots and humans (or what passes for human in today's blockbusters), was chosen as the year's worst film, the best action movie, and the second-most disappointing release after Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno.
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is the most anticipated movie of 2010, followed by Iron Man 2, starring Robert Downey Jr, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I, starring Daniel Radcliffe.
Sandra Bullock was the best actress for The Blind Side.
Considering that she gets to be (emotionally) sandwiched between Pattinson and Lautner in both New Moon and the upcoming Eclipse, Kristen Stewart should have been voted the luckiest star of 2009, but I don't believe there was such a category anywhere. Maybe next year.

A 'Brand' New Year |
Written by Mike Buetow | |||
Monday, 03 December 2012 14:39 | |||
It was a fairly quiet year for acquisitions. AsteelFlash, a former CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY EMS Company of the Year, and Creation Technologies, this year's winner made their near-obligatory deals, but for the most part, the top two EMS tiers were quiet, while Viasystems' purchase of DDi and Cadence's acquisition of Sigrity, respectively, were the largest two fab and design deals. Then in early November, the earth was shaken by two huge announcements. In early November, just days after Cookson announced it would split in two and spin out Alpha Metals and Enthone as a separate company, Dover said it too would divest its electronics assembly and test businesses. And just like that, we are primed to lose two of the longstanding electronics supply-chain brand owners. Mike Buetow

On November, 10, 2011, the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) submitted a petition to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to require cautionary statements on the labels of dietary supplements containing St. John's wort.
In a press release, the organization noted that this popular herb may interfere with a number of drugs and petitioned FDA to require a black box warning to caution against use of any St. John's wort product when taking any medication.
The American Herbal Products Association (AHPA) established a Guidance Policy in 2000 recommending that St. John's wort products be labeled to suggest that consumers seek the advice of their physician if taking any prescription drug.
Additionally, AHPA established a related Guidance Policy in October 2001 that recommends consumers disclose the use of any herbal supplements to their health care provider. As part of this policy, AHPA encourages healthcare providers to seek out accurate and truthful information about herbs.
"CSPI has not discovered any new information, but is only acknowledging what AHPA has known for many years with regard to the possibility for some St. John's wort ingredients to interact with certain drugs," commented Michael McGuffin, AHPA's president. "But this information is already disclosed through the broad use in the herbal trade of AHPA's labeling policy for St. John's wort, and we do not agree that a black box warning--generally limited to only the most dangerous drugs--is warranted."
"Prescribers of medications need to inform patients of possible food-drug and herb-drug interactions," added Steven Dentali, Ph.D., AHPA's chief science officer. "Although specific drugs are not identified on the labels of grapefruit juice, leafy greens, or St John's wort extracts, it is widely known that these can affect drug metabolism. In the case of St. John's wort, this concern is limited to certain constituents, as there is no indication that low-hyperforin products cause clinically significant drug interactions."

So long, Carlos and Roko
Amir Johnson was a 2nd round pick by the Pistons in 2005. |
Just when you thought it was safe to think the Raptors were done, they're not.
They are on the verge of finalizing a two-for-two deal with Milwaukee that sends swingman Carlos Delfino and point guard Roko Ukic to the Bucks.
Young big man Amir Johnson is headed to Toronto and ESPN reported Monday afternoon the other player is raw swingman Sonny Weems.
It's unclear when the deal will be official but it could be done as early as today or tomorrow.
The financial aspect of the deal will be felt at the end of next season.
If the deal is two-for-two and Weems is not waived, it will fill out Toronto's 15-man roster and spell the end of player movement unless Colagnelo has one more deal up his sleeve.
The Raptors would go into the season with Jose Calderon, Jarrett Jack, Quincy Douby, DeMar DeRozan, Marco Belinelli, Antoine Wright, Marcus Banks, Hedo Turkoglu, Chris Bosh, Andrea Bargnani, Reggie Evans, Rasho Nesterovic, Patrick O'Bryant, Johnson and Weems.
Johnson has just one year and $3,666,667 left on his contract while Ukic had an option for $1,450,000 in the 2010-11 season. Weems is due to make $736,420 this year with none of his 2010-11 salary ($854,389) guranteed.
And with the expectations that the salary cap and luxury tax thresholds will drop next season, any long-term savings will help keep some kind of financial flexibility for president and general manager Bryan Colangelo.
But giving up on Ukic is a gamble, even for a Toronto team with a surfeit of point guards.
The 24-year-old struggled at times in his rookie season but at 6-foot-5 and with the ability to break down defences, his skillset could see him eventually thrive in the NBA.
Roki Ukic and all his potential are off to Milwaukee. |
However, with Jose Calderon and the recently-acquired Jarrett Jack cemented as the top two point guards on the roster and Quincy Douby seemingly able to handle third string duties if necessary, Ukic did become expendable.
Delfino spent last season with Khimki in the Russian league after a year with Toronto and three with the Detroit Pistons.
The Raptors originally had major interest in bringing him back but the acquisition of free agent Hedo Turkoglu, the drafting of DeMar DeRozan, the acquisition of Marco Belinelli and the arrival of Jack made Delfino redundant.
Johnson? Well, he's big, 6-9 and 210 pounds; raw and really hasn't done much in the four years he's kicked around the league. But with some playing time available on a front court rotation that will be dominated by Chris Bosh, Andrea Bargnani, Rasho Nesterovic and Reggie Evans, he might get a chance to contribute – or at least push Patrick O'Bryant for those five-big minutes.
What else does it mean?
Well, with the roster looking full,it's a virtual certainty that Toronto will let Pops Mensah-Bonsu find alternate employment.

OAKWOOD - Telling stories and giving gifts, friends, colleagues and former bosses of Lanier Technical College President Russell Vandiver paid homage March 22 to the longtime campus leader and economic development guru. Kenneth Breeden, who led the school from 1975 to 1984, said that when he heard that Vandiver had been named president in September 2010, he thought "lucky Lanier Tech."
Laura Elder has been chosen as acting president of Lanier Technical College following the retirement this week of Russell Vandiver, TCSG Commissioner Ron Jackson announced today.
With last week being proclaimed Exceptional Children's Week by Mayor James Grogan, Dawson County schools have gathered work from several young artists across the county to showcase their skills. The March 8 show, which was held at the Dawson County Library, displayed art and writing from special needs students ranging from elementary, middle and high school levels.
Dawson County turned out in droves to support the Lady Tigers in the team's road through the state basketball playoffs. And while the title eluded them, they will always be winners in the eyes of the community.
The Dawson County school system's central office may soon relocate downtown. The local school board came out of executive session Monday night and announced its interest in buying 2.5 acres at 28 Main St., the former home of Community & Southern Bank.
A technical college president and two vice presidents are the finalists to become the next president of Lanier Technical College.
The budget was at the forefront of the many topics the Dawson County Board of Education discussed during its annual retreat last week. While the 2014 fiscal year budget has not been set, it's expected to total about $32 million, which would be a drop of about $3 million from the current year's budget.
Kelly Maradiaga was caught by the Dawson County Sheriff's Office driving safe on Feb. 25 at the local high school. Maradiaga received a driving "citation" for driving a safe speed and for always wearing her seatbelt.
A local businessman has been selected to lead the search committee for Lanier Technical College's next president. Roger Slaton, chairman of Lanier Tech's board of directors and a member of the Dawson County Board of Education, said he is proud to be asked to serve in such an "important role."
Dawson County elementary schools are gearing up for a new year of kindergarteners. Kindergarten registration will be held from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. April 12 at the Rock Creek Park Gym. Registration will be for Black's Mill, Kilough, Riverview and Robinson elementaries.
Local long-time agriculture teacher now has the "cherry on top" of his career. Dawson County High School Agriculture teacher Reggie Stowers was inducted into the Georgia Agriculture Education Hall of Fame on Jan. 22 during the Future Farmers of America Farm Career and Community Leader's Center in Covington.
Last month, teachers and students at Riverview Elementary gathered to celebrate being 100 days older and smarter. The Riverview Elementary 100th Day parade began in 2010 when the school first opened and has happened every year since.
Dawson County High School students are sending their old shoes to Ghana, West Africa. What may seem like a strange gesture or different way of getting rid of old shoes could make a huge difference to Third World children thanks to the help of Martin Kumi and The Soul Project.
Kilough Elementary School saw an invasion of young learners last month for Mad Scientist Night. The Jan. 24 event was designed to show students different fields of science and give them a hands-on approach to learning.
After 15 rounds and dictionary-proof spellings, Dawson County school system's spelling bee Jan. 30 came down to "achievement" and "tobacco." Luke Ellis of Riverview Middle School correctly spelled both words to edge Hayley Burt from Dawson County Middle to claim the 2013 title.
For the second year, Robinson Elementary's entryway is full of pumpkins.
The Ninth District Head Start program was open Tuesday, thanks to private funding. Staff and parents were notified Monday that the preschool program was reopening, said Kay Laws, Head Start director for Ninth District Opportunity.
October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month, and to celebrate, Riverview Elementary is giving dimes away.

"I live to do the impossible...."
"Having power and knowing how to use it aren't the same thing."
"This is my birthright. This is my responsibility. And I'm going to embrace it."
"The first thing Sinestro ever told me was, 'you must never challenge those more powerful than you.' Funny stuff"
"I don't think the human race understands just how precious this planet is. "
"From this moment on -- none of you are safe."
"Only the weak succumb to brutality."
"I was never a saint. I was just a guy chasing justice."
"I am King of the Seven Seas...."
"In Brighest Day, In Blackest Night...."
"I am Mars' Sole Survivor. There is a reason for that...."
"Of all people you know who I am. I am who the world needs me to be..."
"I am Vengeance....I am the Night....."
"Look! Up in the Sky!"
Three years ago, the citizens of Metropolis looked on in horror as an airliner spiraled out of control, heading for a crowded residential block in the heart of the City of Tomorrow. The resulting crash would have been an unthinkable tragedy which would have broken the city's spirit, and ended hundreds, if not thousands of innocent lives.....
.....instead, the course of human history was changed forever.
Seemingly from nowhere, a man in a bright blue costume and red cape did the blatantly impossible for all of the world to see, defying gravity itself to fly up and catch the crashing plane with seemingly unlimited strength. Dubbed the 'Superman' by an awed media, the caped hero would become known as an incredible force for good not only in Metropolis, but around the world.
Mankind was no longer alone, now faced with the prospect of living alongside a genuine super-human from beyond the stars. And what's more, Superman's arrival was like the first leak in a dam, just before the flood bursts through. Not three months after the debut of the Man of Steel, another caped figure was spotted in nearby Gotham City, an elusive and brilliant vigilante known as the Batman. Unlike Superman's spectacular rescues and phenomenal feats out in the open for all the world to see, Batman kept his actions in the shadows, silently dismantling Gotham's criminal underworld and bringing down the city's corrupt political machinery before vanishing without a trace. Cloaked in mystery, the Batman quickly became the stuff of urban legend, reducing even the most hardened of criminals to a cowardly and superstitious lot when faced with the Dark Knight.
Over the course of the next few months, reports and sightings of more 'super-heroes' began to sweep the nation.
A massive attack on Washington, DC, reportedly comprised of unknown creatures of supernatural origin, was single-handedly stopped by a woman armed apparently with little more than a golden lasso.
The Twin Cities of Central and Keystone were host to countless rescues, large and small, by a man who could break every speed record known to man....on foot.
Coast City saw an alleged extraterrestrial monster wrestled into submission by a man wearing a ring that created objects out of shimmering green light.
Hundreds of unconnected stories from coastal cities all around the world mentioned lives being saved by a man who could seemingly command the ocean itself.
Nine months after the debut of Superman, a danger emerged from the depth of space that threatened the entire world: a swarm of alien parasites called the Sta'rro. The world's military forces were quickly overrun by the parasitic creatures, and even Superman himself was of little use on his own. However, a combined effort of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, the Green Lantern, Aquaman, and another extraterrestrial simply dubbed 'The Martian,' were able to find a way to counteract the Sta'rro parasites and drive their colonies back into space. In the aftermath, the seven heroes agreed that as powerful as they were individually, they would still need to join forces when confronted with threats they could not handle alone. Thus the Justice League was formed, a network of superhuman crime-fighters and rescuers that could respond to any crisis on Earth and beyond.
With the foundation of the Justice League, the age of the super-hero began in earnest. Dozens more came following in their lead, some immensely powerful, some mere mortals with nothing but a costume and motivation. Impossible feats became facts of life, science and reason were pushed beyond their limits on a daily basis. The superhero was now the ideal to which humanity aspired, and just like the costumed wonders that now populated the skies and rooftops of cities aorund the globe, the world began to move faster than anyone would believe.....
What happened next, some would say, was inevitable. Criminal organizations, terrorist factions, and corrupt governments all crumbled before the awesome might of the Justice League throughout what many refer to simply as 'Year One.' The response came at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Day, when a series of deadly poision-gas attacks left hundreds dead all across Gotham City. The culprit, an anarchic madman known as the Joker, claimed his actions were a direct result of the arrival of the Batman a year earlier. If Year One was the year of the super-hero, then Year Two produced its opposite, the super-villain.
Month after month, the heroes of the Justice League found themselves in mortal danger at the hands of threats that rivaled their own tremendous power. Superman was nearly killed in a battle with Intergang boss Bruno Mannheim, who attacked the Man of Steel with a mysterious chunk of meteorite, eventually dubbed 'Kryptonite' by the scientists at STAR Labs. Wonder Woman was ambushed by a duo of super-powered villainesses named Cheetah and Giganta. The Flash found his Twin Cities turned into an elaborate death-trap by a group of criminal Rogues. The Green Lantern was waylaid by the psychic Hector Hammond. Again and again, heroes around the world found themselves embroiled in increasingly destructive battles against fellow superhumans, with no signs of the attacks letting up.
As the violence grew out of hand, new forces emerged to swing the tide in one way or another. A second group of super-heroes, known as the Justice Society, banded together to aid the League, who were already stretched beyond their limit. To curb the spread of superhuman violence, the United States government formed the Super-Human Advanced Defense Executive. Agents of S.H.A.D.E. began a nation-wide crackdown on any and all superhuman activities, branding the Justice League and Justice Society as outlaw vigilantes, and their villainous counterparts as terrorists. While the conventional military forces could do little against the likes of Superman or Wonder Woman, S.H.A.D.E. eventually did find their equal in the nigh-omnipotent Captain Atom as their enforcer, and rumors began to circulate of S.H.A.D.E. agents employing incarcerated super-villains as a "Suicide Squad" to do the government's less than heroic tasks.
Following the Americans' lead, the United Nations formed their own anti-superhuman task force, known as Checkmate. With ostensibly the same goals as S.H.A.D.E., Checkmate agents were elite intelligence or military operatives from all over the world, enhanced with genetic modifications or cybernetic implants provided by the mysterious think-tank known as Cadmus. While Checkmate was clearly subservient to the UN Security Council, Cadmus seemed to have an agenda all of its own....
The standoff between the superheroes, villains, and authorities came to a head in the Middle Eastern nation of Khandaq. During a skirmish between the Justice Society and the Khandaqi king Black Adam, agents of Checkmate carried out a raid against all superhumans involved. While most escaped the raid unharmed, the Society hero Hourman was killed in the fighting. The government-sanctioned assassination of a superhero sent shockwaves throughout the super-powered community, creating a sharp divide between those that wanted retribution, and those that wanted a peaceful solution. This culminated in a cataclysmic battle between Superman and Captain Marvel, who matched each other blow-for-blow in a brawl that spanned the entire planet, to the farthest depths of the ocean and out into space, before Batman ended the battle by discovering that Hourman was not killed by Checkmate at all, but that the UN agents were framed by a third-party assassin of unknown origin.
It is now Year Three in the age of the superhuman. The Justice League and Justice Society have patched up their relationship, and maintain an uneasy alliance. Rumors have begun to spread of a "Secret Society" of super-villains behind the series of attacks against the heroes, possibly even the assassination of Hourman that led to what media pundits have dubbed "The Ten-Minute War" between Superman and Captain Marvel. S.H.A.D.E. have begun taking increasingly blunt measures in reining in superhuman violence, detaining people accused of having "secret identities" and silencing media opposition to their tactics. Checkmate's reach and influence has grown, publicly supported by anti-superhuman critics like Lex Luthor, and Cadmus's weapons and projects to stem the tide of villains and so-called heroes have become more advanced.
And all the while, new heroes are emerging. New villains lurk in the shadows. A New Frontier waits just beyond the horizon.....
This is a revised version of the Ultimate DC Universe RPG, an alternate take on the classic DC Universe where players may reinvent heroes and villains and tell entirely new stories. The previous incarnation of the game was brought over from the now-defunct role-playing forums on SuperHeroHype, but since so many of the old Hype players have left, we are starting fresh with a new continuity for the Guild.
1) You may choose characters to play from within the DC Universe, or from other companies under the DC Imprint (Vertigo, Wildstorm, etc). Original characters or characters from other comic universes like Marvel are not allowed; we've got separate games specifically for that purpose.
2) Whereas the 'Ultimate' games before were about changing things more or less for the sake of novelty, this incarnation is more focused on changing things with the intention of improving them, making them the 'Ultimate' interpretation of the character in the proper sense. Players are free to revise a character's origins, powers, age, sex, race, etc, provided that the core of the character's personality or beliefs are intact. While Ultimate DC is not beholden to the comics or movies or animated universe, we still want to maintain some faithful representation, rather than just creating an entirely new person and slapping an established name on it.
3) New and/or 'unproven' players will be allowed one character at the start. Veteran players or those who prove they can handle multiple characters will be allowed two characters, and eventually a third (though whether a third is allowed will be on a case-by-case basis to be determined by the GM and AGM). Players must post at least once every 30 days or they will lose their character and have to re-apply. If this happens three times, or if you drop a character after only a handful of posts multiple times, you will not be allowed to apply for the game again.
4) PC's are not to be killed without permission. Nameless NPC's are fine, but PC's or important NPC's will require authorization. Don't do anything random, such as destroying the universe or nuking Gotham City, either.
5) Several storylines can be going on at once, in order to interact with other players. If a player's character does not want to be involved in another's storyline, they do not have to, nor do they necessarily have to let you in on a storyline that is only meant for specific characters. Consultation and communication are the keys to a good PC-to-PC interaction.
6) In the case of legacy characters like sidekicks or arch-enemies, the first say in whether a character is approved goes to the person playing the 'franchise' character, a role that must be filled before legacy characters can be permitted (i.e. no Robin running around without Batman). And since this is only Year Three of the new continuity, only first-tier legacy characters like Dick Grayson or Wally West will be allowed at the start. After all, it wouldn't make sense for Batman to have only been around two years and already gone through four Robins. Tier-2 or tier-3 legacy characters may only be approved if the applying player has express permission from the 'franchise' player and has a concept solid enough to impress the GM and AGM.
7) You can travel anywhere you like, provided it is within your character's capability of doing so. This includes space travel, parallel universes, supernatural realms, and the like. Time-travel, however, is forbidden, unless it is a critical part of your character's origin (IE Booster Gold or Rip Hunter). You may do storylines that happen in potential futures, but only with permission from the GM; going back and changing the past, though, is strictly off-limits, since that muddies continuity and makes things hard to follow.
8) You are your character, so act like them. Create or portray their mannerisms, powers, and ideals to how they have been established in the game. BE the character, not just yourself with the character's powers.
9) Respect the Gamemasters. If they make a request of you regarding the game, listen to them. Failure to adhere to GM, AGM, and Guild Moderator requests will result in expulsion from the game.
10) Respect the other players. Constructive criticism is fine, but flaming or trying to run players off just because you don't like they way they do things is not okay. Remember, it's the GM's job, not yours, to point out if there's a problem.
11) All regular Guild rules apply.
12) Above all else, enjoy yourself. If we're not having fun with this, then what's the point?

DECEMBER 31st, 2012
"So then I look Mannheim right in his eyes and say, 'Superman may be the reason you're in jail, but I'm the reason you're staying there.'"
"Oh my God, you didn't."
"Absolutely did."
"You talked trash to Bruno Mannheim, the top boss of Intergang--"
"Former boss, thank you very much."
"That's incredible, Lois."
"It's Metropolis, Richard--incredible things happen all the time here. Anyway, I'm heading up to the roof to watch the fireworks with everyone else. You coming?"
"Sure, just let me refresh my drink. Hey, Clark, you going to take a break and watch the fireworks?"
"Huh? Oh, no, I, um.....I really need to get this rewrite done before it goes online."
"Suit yourself, man. Don't work too hard."
Richard White pats me on the back as he strolls past my cubicle to the cart of hors d'ouerves and champagne in the central hub of the Daily Planet newsroom. The annual New Year's Eve office party is going perfectly well for everyone involved.
Three cubicles down, Steve Lombard is already slumping back in his chair, slurring to himself about his 'glory days' in high school while clumsily tossing a football up and down. He struck out with Cat Grant about an hour ago, and he's cheering himself up in his usual fashion.
Over in the corner, Jimmy Olsen and Chloe Sullivan are chatting it up with the dizzy grins of two fresh-out-of-college youngsters who have had one or two too many, and are just waiting for everyone else to clear out so they can sneak off to the janitor's closet.
Over by the elevator, Lois Lane is smiling brightly, the kind of smile that suggests she's found a strong contender for Mister Right.
I only wish the was sending that smile in my direction.
Don't get me wrong, I can't really blame her. Richard's a heck of a guy; he's intelligent, friendly, and extremely good at his job-- his work restructuring the Planet to a more digitally-focused news feed saved the company from going under, and what's more, he inherited enough of his uncle's journalistic ethics that he was able to modernize our newsroom without sacrificing integrity. The fact that he's got movie-star good looks certainly doesn't hurt his chances at charming Miss Lane, either.
Still, I thought she and I were really starting to have something, that she saw more than just the farm boy lost in the big city like everyone else. Sure, she gets flustered and swoons a bit when I show up in my work clothes--when I save her from Intergang hitmen or catch her crashing helicopter-- but being Superman is something that I do. Clark Kent is who I am, and sadly, Clark Kent doesn't seem to measure up in the eyes of Lois Lane.
I guess I could just let her in on my big secret and take her out flying or something, but I feel like that's cheating.
"All right, folks, two minutes until the big countdown," Perry White calls as he steps past Lois to the elevator. "If you're coming up to the rooftop, now's the time."
Lombard lurches out of his chair and stumbles towards the elevator. Richard hurries back from the drink cart--with two champagne glasses, I notice-- and meets Lois with a charming smile, before the two of them step inside and Perry closes the elevator door, leaving me alone in the newsroom.
"Time to go to work," I say with a sigh, before standing up from my desk, ducking around a corner, and unbuttoning my shirt.....
......Metropolis is always a breathtaking view, but when it's lit up at night, it's truly magical. An ocean of electronic light, spread as far as the eye can see. And in every street, every house and apartment, every rooftop and back lot, there are people ringing in the New Year.
Cresting the top of the Emperor Building, I dive down a hundred stories before pulling out to nearly street level, buzzing the jam-packed crowds for the festivities in Glenmorgan Square. There's a roar of cheers, people clapping and shouting and taking pictures. I smile and wave, then pull up for a flyover of Centennial Park, where local radio host Leslie Willis is hosting some big rock concert featuring a few bands that I'm not particularly a fan of, but nonetheless bring in a big crowd.
Street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, I make my rounds, heading for the heart of New Troy before pulling up to buzz the rooftop of the LexCorp Tower. I pass by the penthouse suite for half a second, but that half a second is all I need.
He's there, of course, glaring at me for daring to fly up to his level. Lex Luthor, the wealthiest, most powerful, most influential man alive-- and quite possibly the most dangerous lunatic the human race has ever produced.
Two years ago, he attempted to crash an experimental spacecraft into several blocks of Bakerline neighborhoods, a catastrophe that would have killed thousands, all to clear the area out for a new branch of his research and development facilities. Later that year, LexCorp weaponry was found in the hands of the League of Shadows, who were out to start a war between the United States and China, that would have likely killed billions. This last year, he hired Bruno Manheim to kill me with a radioactive fragment of my home world, 'Kryptonite' as he called it--and nearly succeeded, were it not for the interference of my allies in the Justice League. And if there is any truth behind the rumors of the 'Secret Society' of super-powered criminals and terrorists who have attacked us all year, then I'll bet good money that Luthor had a hand in that.
He's able to keep his monstrous side away from the public eye. He buys off witnesses, smears and discredits opponents, quickly and brutally silences any opposition. Luthor has built an empire around himself and now believes he's untouchable.
I'm flying past him tonight to remind him that he's not.
For the brief moment that I fly past his suite, his eyes lock on mine, and the two of us worldessly say the same thing:
"I've got my eye on you."
Picking up speed, I climb high into the night sky as twelve million people below me count down the last few seconds of the year.
Cheers and cries echo throughout the city. "Auld Lang Syne" plays up and down the Eastern Seaboard. Fireworks burst throughout the night sky......
........and I breathe a sigh of relief.
Last year, New Year's Eve was a horrific tragedy, as hundreds of people in Gotham City were killed by a madman named the Joker. It's why there are cops at every streetcorner from Maine to Florida. It's why the National Guard and Homeland Security--not to mention S.H.A.D.E.--are all on standby.
And it's why I'm on patrol tonight instead of back at the party on the rooftop of the Planet.
Once I'm at a distance where I can take everything in, I focus down to the Planet building. Perry is warmly bear-hugging Ron Troupe, his favorite political columnist. Lombard is looking for a corner to be sick in. Jimmy and Chloe have finally made it to the rooftop, hoping nobody notices that Chloe's shirt is on inside-out now and that Jimmy seems to have misplaced his bowtie.....
......and Richard and Lois clink champagne glasses together, before sharing a New Year's kiss.
I sigh, then shake my head and think about the work ahead. It may be midnight, but on a night like this, the night is still very young.
And after all, Clark, tomorrow's a brand new day.
Heck, tomorrow's a brand new year.
A brand new year.....and a brand new world to see.......

Ganesha is a real gem! Beautiful and clean it also offers about three different yoga classes a day in its studio. The teachers are down to earth and bilingual (Spanish/ English) which is fantastic. They also offer home made chai tea after the classes, what a delicious treat! Wifi is quite fast and breakfast is yummy and healthy with a few options, home made jam and seasonal fruits too. I've only got words of praise for Ganesha and I hope I can come back soon! Keep up the good work!

U.S. stocks fell, erasing earlier gains, as the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (CME:SPU13) failed to hold above its average level from the past 50 days and investors awaited a monthly jobs report and the start of corporate earnings.
DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. (NYSE:DVA) tumbled 6.3% after the government proposed reducing payments to dialysis-center operators. Constellation Brands Inc. (NYSE:STZ)slumped 3.2% after posting first-quarter earnings that trailed analysts' estimates. Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:F)and Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (NYSE:ANF) added at least 2.9% amid optimism over sales. Zynga Inc. (NASDAQ:ZNGA)jumped 5.5% after naming a new chief executive officer.
The S&P 500 slipped 0.2% to 1,612.11 at 3:21 p.m. in New York, after rising as much as 0.6% earlier. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (CBOT:DC) dropped 67.35 points, or 0.5%, to 14,907.61. Trading in S&P 500 stocks was 5.7% below the 30-day average during this time of day.
"The market is trying to find some ability to hold in there," Jason Cooper, who helps oversee $2.5 billion in South Bend, Indiana, at 1st Source Investment Advisors, said in a phone interview. "It's going to take some actual data to come in to at least reassure investors that the economy is doing OK and people are getting jobs. Corporate America is going to be the important one right now. The Fed has pretty much said what they have to say and not rock the boat any more."
Stocks climbed earlier as factory orders topped estimates and the Federal Reserve's William Dudley reiterated that the central bank may prolong bond purchases if needed. The S&P 500 reversed gains after momentarily rising above its 50-day moving average near 1,624. The benchmark gauge also pared gains yesterday after briefly exceeding the technical level.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. cut its growth forecast for second-quarter U.S. gross domestic product by one-tenth to 1.7% after a slower-than-estimated expansion in manufacturing inventories.
Labor Report
Data tomorrow from the ADP Research Institute may indicate American companies increased employment in June. Investors will watch the monthly U.S. labor report later this week for further signs of economic strength. Employers in the U.S. probably created 165,000 jobs in June, almost the same as in the prior month, according to the median forecast of economists in a Bloomberg survey ahead of July 5 figures from the Labor Department. The unemployment rate probably fell to 7.5%, matching April's four-year low.
Alcoa Inc. will unofficially start the second-quarter earnings season after the market close on July 8, as the biggest U.S. aluminum producer becomes the first company in the Dow to report results. Profits from S&P 500 companies probably grew 2.4%, according to analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. That's down from a projected increase of 6.2% at the beginning of the quarter.
Market Resistance
"The recent economic news has been solid but now the market will look to see where earnings come in to drive the next leg up if we continue in this trend," said James Dunigan, who helps oversee $112 billion as chief investment officer in Philadelphia at PNC Wealth Management. "We have rebounded nicely after the stumble from the Fed meeting in June so we will start to run into some resistance as we head higher."
The S&P 500 has dropped 3.4% since May 21, the day before Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke signaled the central bank could scale back asset purchases if the economy improves in line with forecasts. The benchmark gauge rallied 13% in the first half of the year, the best performance since a 17% gain in the first six months of 1998.
Volatility Gauge
The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index, or VIX, added 1.1% today to 16.55. The equity volatility gauge, which moves in the opposite direction as the S&P 500 about 80% of the time, reached a six-year low in March and has since surged 47%.
Seven of 10 S&P 500 industries fell as industrial and raw- material companies dropped more than 0.5%. Energy and telephone stocks climbed at least 0.1%.
DaVita HealthCare tumbled 6.3% to $113.56. Dialysis- center operators may see U.S. payments reduced 9.4% in 2014 under a Medicare proposal. The government will consider phasing reductions over more than a year, the Health and Human Services Department said yesterday in a regulatory filing. The proposal is subject to public comment and may change before taking effect.
Constellation Brands lost 3.2% to $51.46. The wine company reported adjusted first-quarter earnings of 38 cents a share, missing the average analyst estimate of 40 cents.
Mead Johnson
Mead Johnson Nutrition Co. slipped 5.5% to $75.06. The world's largest baby-formula maker said the National Development and Reform Commission, China's top economic planning agency, carried out a review of documents related to product pricing at Mead Johnson's China unit recently. The U.S. company said it's providing "full" cooperation.
China is probing foreign milk-powder companies including Danone and Nestle SA for possibly violating anti-monopoly laws and setting prices too high, the People's Daily reported.
Achillion Pharmaceuticals Inc. plunged 25% to $6.24. The company said U.S. regulators stopped the clinical trial of one of its drugs for hepatitis C after some patients experienced elevated liver enzymes.
Linn Energy LLC, the oil and natural gas partnership that agreed to buy Berry Petroleum Co. in February, plunged 17% to $27.47, after disclosing a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission inquiry of the transaction and its accounting.
Auto Sales
Ford rose 2.9% to $16.19. The automaker's sales of cars and light trucks climbed 13% to 234,917 last month, beating the 12% increase that was the average of 11 estimates.
Retailers advanced. U.S. sales at stores open at least one year rose 2.9% from a year earlier during the week ended June 29 as concern over increased inventory and markdowns eased, Johnson Redbook Research said.
Abercrombie & Fitch climbed 3.5% to $47.79. The teen retailer may see acceleration in margin expansion amid sales stabilization and cost reductions, Piper Jaffray Cos. wrote in a note, reiterating the stock as a top pick.
Zynga jumped 5.5% to $3.24. The maker of social- networking games named Don Mattrick, the former head of Microsoft's entertainment division, as its new CEO. Mattrick will start July 8, the company said.
Nielsen Holdings NV, the biggest provider of U.S. television ratings, increased 2.3% to $34.03. The company will replace Sprint Nextel Corp. in the S&P 500 after the end of trading July 8, S&P said in a statement.
Apple Inc., the world's most valuable technology company, climbed 1.6% to $415.57 for a third straight day of gains. Apple's shares have retreated 41% from a record high in September amid concern that Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook has taken too long to deliver a new breakthrough product to help make up for stiffer iPhone competition.

SOURCE GrammaTech, Inc.
ITHACA, N.Y., Sept. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- GrammaTech, Inc., a leading software company specializing in software assurance tools and cyber-security solutions, announced that the U.S. Office of Naval Research (ONR) awarded GrammaTech an SBIR contract to advance adaptive computing technology.
Within this contract, GrammaTech is working to enhance computer security, a critical issue to both national security and the private sector. Breaches in security can wreak havoc in many different ways, most notably by compromising the operation of critical infrastructure or resulting in the loss of sensitive data.
Modern computer systems have become so complex that they have nearly outgrown their ability to be entirely understood. The sheer number of software components - and the myriad of interactions between them on a single desktop computer - is itself a difficult security challenge that confounds modern protection technologies. Every day, new exploits are introduced that are able to sidestep existing defenses by taking advantage of obscure combinations of software bugs or unexpected behaviors. GrammaTech's experts in software security are working on innovative efforts to diagnose and develop new counter-measures to each of these new threats.
"We are working on a new paradigm for building system security that provides the computer itself with the tools to diagnose new attacks, reason about their impact on the system, and implement countermeasures automatically," explained Tim Teitelbaum, GrammaTech's CEO. "We believe this so-called 'autonomic computing' approach offers the potential for complex computer systems to police themselves, by detecting intrusion, performing self-healing, and countering cyber threats directly."
About GrammaTech:
GrammaTech is the leading developer of software-assurance tools and advanced cyber-security solutions. Originally a spin-off from Cornell University, GrammaTech's software analysis solutions are used by software developers worldwide, spanning a myriad of industries including avionics, medical, industrial control, and other applications where reliability and security are paramount. With both static and dynamic analysis techniques that analyze source code as well as binary executables, GrammaTech provides superior static analysis for better software.
