Windows Server 2008 R2 is an incremental upgrade that builds on the Windows Server 2008 foundation. By simultaneously releasing Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7, Microsoft was able to build significant synergy between the two products. This article focuses on some of the technologies made possible by that synergy, including DirectAccess, BranchCache™, Network Access Protection (NAP), and AppLocker™. The article shows how the Information Security and Risk Management (InfoSec) team in Microsoft IT use these technologies and Extended Protection for Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) to fulfill their mission of enabling secure and reliable business for Microsoft and its customers.
DirectAccess is a new feature in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 that provides increased productivity for the mobile work force by offering the same connectivity experience inside and outside the office. With DirectAccess, trusted users on healthy devices on the Internet can securely access corporate resources such as e-mail servers, shared folders, or intranet Web sites without connecting through a Virtual Private Network (VPN). DirectAccess is on whenever the user has an Internet connection, giving users seamless access to intranet resources whether they are traveling, at the local coffee shop, or at home.
DirectAccess combines multiple Windows technologies to enable IP-layer connectivity between Windows computers and any other devices inside the corporate network. It is secured with Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) and strong host protections, including the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and NAP. IPsec is used to enforce several security requirements that were traditionally implemented by VPNs, including encryption and user authentication.
Multiple remote access methods at Microsoft led to end user confusion about which technology to use at which time. And with the previous VPN solution, users had to wait through a long quarantine period while the system checked to see if the user's computer had the latest software patches, anti-virus signatures, and so on. Having multiple remote access technologies also led to increased overall overhead at Microsoft IT.
Microsoft IT first offered DirectAccess as a pilot to a subset of employees. Microsoft IT is currently deploying DirectAccess globally in a phased manner to all employees.
DirectAccess Benefits
DirectAccess provides the following benefits for Microsoft IT:
Better User Experience. For users, DirectAccess simplifies the access choices. Users log into their computers the same way, whether they are local or remote, and have a uniform authentication experience. Users experience seamless connectivity and are no longer required to pick which service point to connect to depending on their physical location or where they are traveling. Users also get connected much faster since they no longer have to wait for scans at connection time.
Manageability of Remote Users. With the previous solution, the InfoSec team could only manage mobile computers when users connected to a VPN or came to the office. With DirectAccess, the InfoSec team can manage a mobile computer whenever that computer has Internet connectivity, even if the user is not logged on. This helps to ensure that mobile users stay up-to-date with security and system health policies. It also helps Microsoft IT meet their regulatory and privacy mandates for security and data protection on assets that roam beyond the traditional corporate network boundaries.
Improved Security. DirectAccess enables mobility while meeting increased security concerns driven by new threats, privacy requirements, and regulatory requirements.
Client Health NAP Integration. DirectAccess clients must be compliant with system health requirements before allowing a connection to a DirectAccess server. NAP provides continuous health enforcement—not just at the time of the VPN connection. For example, if a user or a process turns off Windows Firewall, NAP automatically turns it back on. Microsoft IT sees improved remediation time because clients are always protected.
System Health Agents (SHAs). Microsoft IT adds security enhancements by using SHAs such as the Microsoft® Forefront™ Client Security SHA.
Strong Authentication. DirectAccess uses IPsec to authenticate and encrypt connectivity information used to access the corporate network. Microsoft IT also configured the optional smart card enforcement feature as a requirement. This provides strong two-factor authentication for all network access. Microsoft IT enforces BitLocker® Drive Encryption for all DirectAccess clients by way of group policy. By using smart cards and BitLocker together, Microsoft IT limits the impact of lost or stolen devices.
Granular Network Access Controls. The DirectAccess server offers the ability to configure granular network access controls, so the InfoSec team can restrict user access to specific servers or applications.
NAP enforces health requirements by monitoring the health of client computers when users attempt to connect to the network or communicate on the network. Client computers that are not in compliance with the health policy can be provided with restricted network access until their configuration is updated and brought into compliance with policy. Depending on how an organization chooses to deploy NAP, non-compliant clients can be quarantined, put in a penalty box, or automatically updated so that users can quickly regain full network access. NAP is built into Windows Vista®, Windows Server 2008, and Windows XP Service Pack 3, but it has been refined in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7.
With NAP, there are three enforcement modes to choose from:
In an reporting mode, NAP automatically checks each client's policy compliance and delivers the data to a central repository. In this mode, NAP does not restrict user access to the network at all, even if the computer is non-compliant.
In deferred enforcement mode, users are not restricted from logging on to the network, but the IT organization is notified of the computer's non-compliance. The user sees a NAP pop-up notification, which educates the user about how to participate in the remediation process. If the auto remediation feature is turned on, NAP automatically fixes the client computer to bring it into compliance, if possible.
In full enforcement mode, NAP does not permit an unhealthy client to log on to the network at all. NAP directs the user to an isolated environment where the user can access remediation services, such as Windows Update. When the computer is compliant, the user is permitted to log on to the network.
Microsoft supplies NAP enforcement clients for IPsec, IEEE 802.1x authentication (wired and wireless), VPN connections, DHCP configuration, and Remote Desktop Gateway (formerly known as TS Gateway) connections. IPsec is the strongest and most flexible NAP enforcement mechanism. IPsec also provides network access protection for virtual clients.
With about 71,000 highly mobile users worldwide, Microsoft IT needed a new way to measure and improve the corporate security policy compliance of more than 300,000 client computers, including desktop computers, roaming portable computers (such as DirectAccess clients), visiting portable computers, and unmanaged home computers. The InfoSec team decided to install NAP to better manage the health of Microsoft's environment.
The InfoSec team determined that it would be best to use NAP for three different types of network access and communications: IPsec-protected traffic, DHCP address configurations, and VPN connections. But before the team could deploy NAP in any scenario, it needed to determine which system health agents (SHAs) to use. SHAs check each client's upgrade state, virus signature, system configuration, and so on for compliance with network access and communication security policies. The team decided to use three SHAs: the Windows SHA, the Forefront Client Security SHA, and the System Center Configuration Manager SHA. Next, the team made sure that those SHAs were installed and enabled on the client computers that were selected to be part of the initial NAP rollout.
The InfoSec team chose the IPsec scenario for the first deployment of a phased deployment approach because IPsec was already used for domain isolation at the company. The InfoSec team deployed NAP to approximately 130,000 client computers worldwide, based on their domain membership. The team began with NAP in reporting mode so that it could have its first comprehensive view of policy compliance at Microsoft. The team has since moved in large part to deferred enforcement with automatic remediation on all domain-joined servers using IPsec. The team found that this enforcement mode provided the best balance between security and business impact for their organization. As of October, 2010, Microsoft IT has deployed NAP to 388,051 clients. 113, 772 clients are reported by NAP on the Internet.
NAP Benefits
Through the use of NAP, Microsoft IT is encouraging an enhanced security environment for employees. NAP offers the following benefits:
Integration with DirectAccess. Because NAP is built into Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7, it can be used with DirectAccess to verify that client computers meet health requirements before allowing them to make a DirectAccess connection to the corporate network.
Improved Compliance and Efficiency. NAP has enabled the InfoSec team to add efficiency to their security management process while increasing compliance with security policies. NAP provides improved security and helps Microsoft IT meet regulatory requirements while enabling users, such as the sales teams, to move outside the corporate network securely.
Speed. For VPN clients, NAP is much faster than the custom solution that it replaced because NAP evaluates health independent of connections. Previously, users had potentially long connect times because the scan package had to be downloaded and run each time that users connected.
Scalability and Flexibility. The InfoSec team can gradually help users remediate non-compliant computers without blocking access or adding significant management time. The InfoSec team deploys NAP for a variety of access scenarios with different levels of implementation. These access scenarios include VPN connections, IPsec, and DHCP.
BranchCache is a Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 feature that can help increase the network responsiveness of centralized applications when accessed from remote offices. When BranchCache is enabled, a copy of data accessed from intranet Web and file servers is cached locally within the branch office. When another client on the same network requests the file, the client downloads it from the local cache instead of downloading the same content again across the wide area network (WAN). This gives users in remote offices the same experience that they have when working on their local area network (LAN). BranchCache also helps reduce WAN utilization.
BranchCache can improve the performance of applications that use the HTTP and HTTPS protocols and the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol (used for Windows file shares). BranchCache only retrieves data from a server when the client requests it, and because BranchCache is a passive cache, it will not increase WAN utilization. BranchCache only caches read requests, so it will not interfere with a user saving a file.
Distributed Cache or Hosted Cache
BranchCache can operate in Distributed Cache mode or Hosted Cache mode. Distributed Cache mode uses a peer-to-peer architecture. Windows 7 client computers cache copies of files and send them directly to other Windows 7 clients as needed. Distributed Cache mode is especially useful in branch offices that do not have a local server.
Hosted Cache mode uses the client/server architecture. Windows 7 client computers cache content to a computer on the LAN running Windows Server 2008 R2 (the Hosted Cache). Other clients that need the same content retrieve it directly from the Hosted Cache. This computer can run Server Core and can also host other applications.
The Role of Content Metadata
When a second Windows 7 client requests the same file from the content server, a user is authenticated and authorized in exactly the same manner as if BranchCache was not being used. If successful, the content server returns content metadata over the same channel that data would normally have been sent. The metadata is the mechanism for reducing bandwidth, because the metadata is significantly smaller than the actual content. It is important that the content server sends the metadata to each client to ensure that a client always receives hashes for the most up-to-date content. The content is broken into blocks. For each block, a hash is computed (known as the block hash). A hash is also computed on a collection of blocks (known as the segment hash). Content metadata is primarily composed of block hashes and segment hashes. The segment hashes provide a unit of discovery. The hash algorithm used is Secure Hash Algorithm 256. The compression ratio achieved is approximately 2000:1, so the size of the metadata sent over the wire is approximately 2000 times smaller than the size of the original data itself.
For Microsoft IT, the trend toward data centralization places more content in data centers that are remote from branch offices. A very large (and increasing) number of remote sites are connected to these data centers. These remote sites range in size from very small (less than 10 users) to very large (greater than 5000 users). Microsoft IT WAN links between data centers and branch offices are thin and expensive. This leads to high link utilization and slow over-WAN application and data access, which impacts user productivity. Improving network performance is expensive, however, and difficult to implement.
In the Microsoft IT environment, 232 of the remote sites have Microsoft IT-managed United Services Platform (USP) servers deployed. 110 of the 232 sites have been upgraded to the next generation remote site platform, which is referred to as Virtual Branch Office Server (VBOS).
The remote sites without VBOS servers were candidates for the use of Distributed Cache mode. The initial Distributed Cache deployment included Montreal, Ottawa, and Hyderabad. The InfoSec team created one group policy object (GPO) for Distributed Cache mode because the same GPO works for any site. For the Windows Server 2008 R2 deployment, the InfoSec team linked this GPO to the corporate domains (Africa, North America, and so on) to turn on Distributed Cache everywhere. The Redmond domain did not receive the Distributed Cache GPO since the Puget Sound area does not represent the target audience for BranchCache. Other sites with large numbers of local data center servers, such as Dublin and Singapore, were also blocked from receiving the Distributed Cache GPO.
The remote sites with VBOS servers were excellent candidates for Hosted Cache mode. An additional virtual machine was installed on each VBOS server and configured as a Hosted Cache. Group policy was applied to the remote site, enabling BranchCache on Windows 7 clients and pointing them to the local Hosted Cache virtual machine for content retrieval.
Each of the sites with VBOS servers needed an individual GPO linked to the site. This is because the GPO must include the name of the Hosted Cache server on the local VBOS. These 232 site-based GPOs take precedence over the domain-based Distributed Cache GPO.
BranchCache Benefits
BranchCache provides the following benefits for Microsoft IT:
Performance. Because BranchCache does not require any infrastructure, the InfoSec team was able to improve the performance of remote networks simply by deploying Windows 7 to client computers, deploying Windows Server 2008 R2 to servers, and enabling BranchCache. The performance improvements made possible by BranchCache were better than that of network appliances for the cached data.
Seamless Integration with Network Security Technologies. BranchCache works seamlessly with network security technologies, including Secure Socket Layers (SSL), Server Message Block (SMB) signing, and end-to-end IPsec. This is very important for Microsoft IT because IPsec is a critical component of Microsoft IT's security strategy. IPsec protects the network from threats and from malware proliferation through isolation and strong computer authentication and it is the building block for many other Microsoft IT security initiatives including NAP and DirectAccess.
Encryption Compatible. BranchCache can also be used to reduce network bandwidth utilization and to improve application performance even if the content is encrypted. The process requires that a content server authenticates and authorizes a client before retrieving content from within the branch. Additionally, the content server returns content metadata to a requesting client to ensure that the client references the current version of requested content in the content server.
AppLocker is a new feature in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 that provides the ability to control the installation and use of applications. This application standardization provides security, operational, and compliance benefits.
An administrator can use AppLocker to:
Prevent users from installing and using unauthorized applications that increase Helpdesk support costs
Keep unlicensed software from running
Allow users to install and run improved applications and software updates based on business needs
Help prevent malware and unsupported applications from affecting computers
Ease enterprise software deployments and maintenance through effective desktop configuration management
Help ensure desktops are in compliance with corporate policies and industry regulations such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Sarbanes-Oxley, the Health Insurance Portability and Accounting Act (HIPAA), Basel II, and others.
Stop users from running applications that needlessly consume network bandwidth or otherwise negatively impact the enterprise computing environment
White Lists and Black Lists
AppLocker provides a simple and powerful structure with three different rule types: allow rules, deny rules, and exception rules. Allow rules limits the execution of applications to whatever is on an organization's white list and blocks everything else. Deny rules takes the opposite approach. It allows execution of anything except what is on an organization's black list. Blacklisting is very useful to help enforce application policies on corporate network hosts. For example, the InfoSec team could disallow insecure down-level versions of applications or any applications that are explicitly forbidden on the corporate network such as file share, peer-to-peer, or remote-control applications. However, it is important to keep in mind that blacklisting could be bypassed by a malicious user who has or gains admin privileges. Blacklisting should therefore not be expected to protect against intentional running of unauthorized software by a user with admin privileges.
Many enterprises will likely use a combination of allow rules and deny rules. An administrator can also use exception rules together with allow rules or deny rules to exclude files from an allow/deny rule. For example, an administrator could use exception rules to create a rule that would allow everything in the Windows operating system to run except the built-in games. Using allow rules with exception rules provides a good way to build a known good list of applications without having to create an inordinate number of rules.
Microsoft IT provides access to customer-support applications and session-based connectivity to third-party call center support partners. Customer Support Representatives (CSRs) need to be on site or have full network access with wide bandwidth to use the thick client support applications. The previous solution used software restrictions policies, but the policies were complex to set up and difficult and expensive to maintain and troubleshoot.
Microsoft IT implemented AppLocker using allow rules because the CSRs needed to run only specific applications such as the client support application and security requirements dictated that CSRs not be able to run anything else on the Microsoft network. With the AppLocker solution, CSRs log on to Windows Server 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services (RDS) servers hosted directly on the Microsoft extranet network. Running the support applications with direct network access allows these applications to interact directly with Microsoft IT's support information databases. The call center analysts can query the internal knowledge base and interact with or escalate support tickets directly to Microsoft employees. This provides customers with a single, seamless support team and experience. The AppLocker deployment provides a much simpler solution than the previous solution. With the new solution, the Operations Configuration Manual and Lockdown Guide decreased in size from 30 to 6 pages.
AppLocker Benefits
AppLocker provides the following benefits for Microsoft IT:
Easy Creation of White Lists and Black Lists. Before AppLocker, doing any blacklisting or whitelisting of applications was very difficult for Microsoft IT. The allow rules, deny rules, and exception rules give administrators a great deal of flexibility for different situations.
Application Updates. The InfoSec team makes extensive use of a new feature called publisher rules that are based on application digital signatures. This feature makes it possible to build rules that survive application updates by being able to specify attributes such as the version of an application. For example, the InfoSec team could create a rule that allows all versions greater than 7.0 of Microsoft Word to run if signed by the publisher (Microsoft, in this case). When Microsoft updates Word, an administrator can safely push out that update without having to go back to the policy to build another rule for the new version of the application each time it is updated.
Finer Granularity. AppLocker rules can be associated with a specific user, group, or organization. This provides granular controls that enable the InfoSec team to support the client's requirements by validating or enforcing which users can run specific applications. For example, the team could create a rule to allow the people in the Finance department to run all of the Finance Line of Business applications. This rule would block everyone who is not in the Finance department from running the Finance applications, including administrators. But it provides access for those who have the business need to run these applications.
Support for Multiple, Independently Configurable Policies. Multiple independently configurable policies (executables, installers, scripts, and DLLs) enable the InfoSec team to build rules that go beyond the traditional executable-only solutions, providing greater flexibility and enhanced protection. The team can retain control but empower users to keep their systems up-to-date based upon their business needs. In addition, each of these policies can be individually placed into an audit-only mode, which enables the team to test rules before implementation.
Easier Rule Creation. AppLocker provides rule-creation tools and wizards. These tools use a step-by-step approach to create new rules, automatically generate rules, and import and export rules. For example, the InfoSec team could automatically generate rules using a test reference machine and then import the rules into a production environment for widespread deployment. The team could also export policy to provide a backup of the production configuration or to provide documentation for compliance purposes.
Extended Protection for Integrated Windows Authentication
The InfoSec team also makes use of a new feature called Extended Protection for Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) that helps protect authentication credentials when using IWA. It prevents an attacker from getting access to credentials through another attack (for example, through social engineering), and then using those credentials to log into another server to which the client has legitimate access. These types of authentication relay attacks or "man-in-the-middle" attacks are not new but they can pose a significant risk in specific deployment scenarios.
There are two components to Extended Protection for IWA: Service Binding and Channel Binding.
Service Binding
Service Binding is an unforgeable statement by the client about the Service Principle Name (SPN) of the server to which it wishes to authenticate. The InfoSec team deploys Service Binding to mitigate the risk of authentication relay attacks with Server Message Block (SMB). SMB Service Binding has replaced SMB signing in areas where performance degradation had impacted the business.
Channel Binding
Channel Binding makes use of a secured outer channel, a client-authenticated inner channel, and a Channel Binding Token (CBT), which is passed to the server. The CBT is a property of the secured outer channel and is independently arrived at by both the client and the server. It is used to bind that outer channel to a conversation over the client-authenticated inner channel. This CBT value cannot be controlled or influenced by the attacker. A CBT-aware server compares the CBT contained in the client authentication information (which corresponds to the client-attacker channel) to the CBT attached to the attacker-server channel. If the client-attacker CBT does not match the attacker-server CBT, the server detects the man-in-the-middle attack and refuses the authentication request.
The InfoSec team configures Channel Binding on all Internet-facing IIS Servers using IWA.
To fulfill their mission of enabling secure and reliable business for Microsoft and Microsoft's customers, the InfoSec team in Microsoft IT leverages enhancements in Windows Server 2008 R2. The team makes extensive use of technologies made possibly by the synergy between Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7, including DirectAccess, NAP, BranchCache, and AppLocker.
The InfoSec team uses:
DirectAccess to provide a seamless, secure, and uniform connectivity experience for mobile users on the Internet who want to access intranet resources on the corporate network. The InfoSec team also uses DirectAccess to manage mobile computers whenever those computers have Internet connectivity.
NAP together with DirectAccess to monitor the health of client computers when users attempt to connect to or communicate on the corporate network. The team also uses NAP to remediate computers that are out of compliance.
BranchCache to help increase network performance of centralized applications when accessed from remote offices while still allowing encryption. BranchCache provides better performance improvements than a network appliance solution. Microsoft IT also benefits from the reduced WAN utilization.
AppLocker to control the installation and use of applications
Extended Protection for IWA to protect authentication credentials from man-in-the-middle attacks.

A Fun Story
If you love the stories from the "If you give..." series, I am sure you will like this one as well. It is so much fun to read the story of the little dog who has a donut, and then of course wants apple juice. Before you know it, the little dog is playing baseball and somehow ends up wanting more apple juice, and then another donut. One thing I love about this book, is how it comes around in a complete circle. Young readers seem to really enjoy how it all comes together at the end.
This is a great addition to any classroom or home library.

A World Premiere Kennedy Center Commission
The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg
Adapted by Tom Isbell from the Newbery Honor book by Rodman Philbrick
Directed by Gregg Henry
Featuring Joe Brack, Veronica del Cerro, Michael Glenn, James J. Johnson, Ryan Mercer, Michael Russotto, and Michael V. Sazonov
During the Civil War, a small 12-year-old boy who never even owned a pair of shoes steps up to become a hero by saving his older brother at the Battle of Gettysburg. Then he helps lead the Union to victory! Sound too heroic to believe? It's true. At least mostly true. You see, Homer P. Figg doesn't always tell the whole truth about, well, anything. But from Maine to Pennsylvania, facing Union soldiers and Confederates, Underground Railroad conductors and circus ring leaders, Homer will tell any tale it takes to save his brother. Rodman Philbrick's Newbery Honor–winning novella becomes the humorously staged story of Homer's journey through thieves, spies, and scallywags as he makes his way through history. For age 8 and up.

If you've ever wondered whether building an intranet is worthwhile, then consider the example of Motley Fool, an online investor-education company based in Alexandria, Va.
Last November, in an intranet-based program called "Stop, Start, Continue," the company's 125 employees were asked to use an intranet board to assess one another's job performance and comment on the work habits of coworkers.
Tom Conner, a Web developer at the company, says using the intranet encouraged more honesty---especially when it came to offering constructive criticism to superiors he might otherwise have been reluctant to confront. "It feels good to formally tell people things you wouldn't say face-to-face," he says.
Here's how it worked: Employees clicked on a coworker's name in a particular section of the company's intranet, then wrote suggestions regarding specific habits that person should stop, start, or continue. The comments were forwarded verbatim to department coordinators, who were instructed to keep all complaints anonymous. Because it's not that big a company, however, "most people could tell from the writing style" who wrote the comment, says information technology coordinator Dwight Gibbs.
The company plans to use the system again, possibly doing three rounds of evaluations a year. For now the intranet "suggestion box" will be used independent of the company's official annual review process, through which promotions are decided and awarded. The idea is to help employees improve their performance by bonus time.
Of course, that adds a whole new round of evaluation duties to the demands already made on company managers, who spend a lot of time with workers in one-on-one conferences. "I don't mind," says Gibbs, "because peer feedback is still so much more valuable than a top-down evaluation. It's coming strictly from the people who work with you every single day.

[Back to Top]
The Yaworski Waste Lagoon is a dewatered and backfilled lagoon, approximately 800 feet by 300 feet and 12 feet deep. From about 1948 to 1973, drummed material and bulk wastes including textile dyes, solvents, resins, acids, caustics, stillbottom sludges, and solvent-soaked rags were disposed of in the lagoon. Periodically, flammable liquid waste was burned in several pits in the lagoon area until 1965, when the Connecticut Department of Health ordered a halt to on-site burning of waste. The combined efforts of local residents and State and local officials concerned about adverse human health and environmental effects from disposal operations at the site led to the end of all dumping at the site in 1973. In 1976, the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CTDEP) directed the site owner to assess the environmental hazard posed by the site. The owner was required to install monitoring wells adjacent to the lagoon. Sampling of these wells detected contaminated groundwater. In 1980, the CTDEP ordered the site owner to employ a professional engineering firm to conduct an environmental study of the property. The firm recommended closing the lagoon by covering the waste and, in 1982, the CTDEP ordered that the lagoon be closed in accordance with the engineering firm's report. After a fire in 1982, the EPA decided that additional information was needed about the site to better assess the potential threats to human health and the environment. The nearest residence that uses groundwater is located 1,600 feet upgradient from the site and across the Quinebaug River. The site is surrounded by agricultural land and bordered by the Quinebaug River. It lies within the 100-year flood plain.
Threats and Contaminants
[Back to Top]
Groundwater samples taken from the areas immediately adjacent to the lagoon revealed the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and heavy metals. Inorganic contaminants were found in the sediments in the wetlands area just south of the lagoon. Soil samples taken from areas immediately adjacent to the lagoon had revealed the presence of low levels of VOCs. Contaminants have also been detected across the Quinebaug River in groundwater.
Cleanup Approach
[Back to Top]
The site is being addressed through a long-term remedial phase focusing on cleanup of the entire site.
Response Action Status
[Back to Top]
Entire Site
The potentially responsible parties contained waste in the lagoon by building an impermeable cover and improving the dike around the lagoon to ensure it would withstand flooding. The lagoon was covered in the summer of 1990 and a permanent vegetative cover was added in 1991. The EPA approved lagoon closure in early 1992. The remedy includes establishing a groundwater protection standard known as Alternative Concentration Limits (ACLs) and thirty years of monitoring to ensure that the ACLs and other standards are met. The remedy also provides for the investigation and potential cleanup of groundwater contamination across the Quinebaug River. The potentially responsible parties installed monitoring wells from 1990 to 1992, and began monitoring the groundwater, surface water, and sediment in 1993 to collect data and ensure protectiveness of human health and the environment. Potentially responsible parties also worked with the EPA on a plan to investigate the groundwater contamination across the river. In December 1996, the EPA made a decision to take over all site work. EPA has continued quarterly monitoring.
Site-wide monitoring
EPA conducted site-wide monitoring from December 1996 through July 2011. Monitoring currently occurs three times a year. In March 2011, EPA, in conjunction with CT DEP, eliminated surface water sampling from the monitoring program. EPA also revised the sediment sampling program; the need for future sediment sampling will be assessed by evaluating the levels of certain contaminants of concern in groundwater at the point-of-compliance wells.
Transfer to CT DEEP
In September 2011, EPA transferred the responsibility for site-wide operation and maintenance (O&M) to the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (CT DEEP, renamed from CT DEP). CT DEEP is now responsible for all O&M activities, including site-wide monitoring.
Enforcement Highlights
The companies and individuals responsible for the cleanup under the 1990 Consent Decree had notified EPA that they were no longer able to conduct the work. EPA took over all cleanup activities in December 1996. EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice filed a complaint in federal district court against Pervel Industries, Inc., the generator of more than 90% of the waste, and its parent corporation, the Bemis Company. A separate complaint was also filed against the Yaworski's, owners/operators of the lagoon. Both cases were settled and final cash payments were placed in a Site-specific Special Account; Special Account monies were used for monitoring activities at the site until the account was exhausted in 2011.
Environmental Progress
[Back to Top]
After adding this site to the NPL, the EPA assessed site conditions and determined that the site contamination did not pose an immediate threat to area residents and the surrounding environment while waiting for long-term cleanup actions to be completed at the Yaworski Waste Lagoon site. The construction of an impermeable cover and improvements to the dike have eliminated the threat of residents coming into direct contact with contaminants from the lagoon. Site-wide monitoring began in 1993 and is ongoing.
Current Site Status
[Back to Top]
The first portion of the remedy, a multi-layer cap and improvement of the dike surrounding the lagoon, was completed in late 1990s. The second portion consists of setting Alternate Concentration Limits (ACL) as the groundwater protection standard; monitoring and institutional controls as well as taking corrective action, such as pumping and treating of groundwater, as conditions render necessary. EPA set final ACLs for the site in September 2000.
Groundwater contaminants were also discovered across the river from the lagoon; EPA conducted field investigations in 1998 and determined that an engineered remedy is unwarranted given the expected decrease in contamination by natural attenuation. Ongoing monitoring of groundwater includes measurements to evaluate the effectiveness of natural attenuation and determine any changes in the configuration of the lagoon plume; recent monitoring results indicate that natural attenuation was effective in reducing the levels of contaminants in groundwater across the river.
Long-term groundwater monitoring continues. EPA conducted extensive sediment sampling in 2009 to further evaluate the impact of groundwater contaminants to sediment. In March 2011, EPA, in conjunction with CT DEP, eliminated surface water sampling from the monitoring program. EPA also revised the sediment sampling program; the need for future sediment sampling will be assessed by evaluating the levels of certain contaminants of concern in groundwater at the point-of-compliance wells.
In September 2011, EPA transferred the responsibility for all operation & maintenance (O&M) activities at the site, including site-wide monitoring, to CT DEEP.

LEWIS, Alethea Brereton. Microcosm, The (1801)
Contemporary Reviews
Critical Review, 2nd ser. 33 (Dec 1801): 460.
We are so much puzzled by Mrs. John and Mrs. George, by children
and grand-children, in the course of this work, that we could scarcely
proceed without an abstract of the genealogy of the Spencers, the
Percivals, and the Abingdons. We regretted this the more, as the
author's descriptive talents are above mediocrity, and his
plot is artfully enveloped. Could he have repressed his exuberance,
he might have formed a pleasing tale in about two, instead of five,
The author of Vicissitudes in genteel Life should, however,
have been better informed than to have brought the lord-chancellor
to a private house, and invested him there with all his judicial
powers. But we know not how to draw his indictment; for he will
infallibly escape conviction, by saying that he has not depicted
the vicissitudes of high life. Genteel and gentleman
are now words so hackneyed and misapplied, that we scarcely can
discover their limits. A want of knowledge of human nature, and
of life in general, are, however, too conspicuous in the present
Notes: Listed under 'Monthly Catalogue: Novels'. Format:
5 vols 12mo; price 1l. Sewed. Publisher: Mawman.
Monthly Review, 2nd ser. 35 (Aug 1801): 428–29.
We experience great satisfaction when it is in our power to announce
the appearance of a novel, of which we can approve the tendency
and applaud the execution. It is too frequently our lot to peruse
and pass judgement on works of this class, which leave an unsatisfactory
and melancholy impression on the mind, from the gloomy views of
human nature which they exhibit, or from the interest which they
excite in behalf of characters whose principles and conduct we must
condemn. Not such, however, was the effect [428/429] produced by
the present volume. The long established rules of morality and religion
are here respected and upheld; and we are called to bestow our love
and esteem, only when reason gives the sanction of her approbation.
Notwithstanding that the adventures are extended to five volumes,
and that the narrative is frequently interrupted by digressions,
it possesses sufficient interest to reward an attentive perusal.
The style is lively, without being flippant, and the language is
generally correct and perspicuous. We frequently meet, also, with
an archness of observation and a propriety of sentiment in the digressive
parts, which carry with them a sufficient apology for the breaks
which they cause in the narrative; and the author manifestly possesses
considerable skill in drawing and discriminating characters.
Having thus pointed out the merits of this work, we have now to
state its principal faults; which appear to be the introduction
of too many characters, and too great an intricacy of plot. We think
that these objections might have been obviated, if the author had
possessed the resolution to deviate from a practice which he describes
in the preface:
'It is a misfortune to me, perhaps a greater to my readers,
that I never am able to transcribe what I have written. My first
copy has always been my last. Could I write over again the following
volumes, I should probably make great alterations in them; but the
task would be extreme: indeed not practicable. The work must be
sent into the world, if sent at all, "with all its faults
upon its head."
We conceive that it is a duty which every author owes to the public,
frequently to revise and reconsider his work before he sends it
to the press; and he does not contribute to the permanency of his
own reputation, when he sends it "with all its imperfections
on its head," instead of exerting his best efforts to remove
them. We hope that the writer of the Microcosm will not be seduced,
in future, into a compliance with so indolent a practice, by the
false éclat which may appear to attach to the adoption

2015 Toyota Hilux Concept Release Date
2015 Toyota hilux is about to come. People in the world also hope that this car performance will be much better that its predecessor and also its competitor. We all know that Toyota Company always looking for something new to be produced, then the released of Hilux from Toyota in 2015 will be the answer of all questioning market. The changes which may come into latest version from Toyota should be aware with the market demand, though. Completely, it is not only making your convenient riding, but it is also the answer for reducing CO2 emission in such convenient riding mode.
2015 Toyota Hilux New Features
We are sure that 2015 Toyota hilux release date may launch in that way. There are several suggestions which may be useful for Hilux mode from Toyota in 2015, the new Grill and front and rear lighting will be important to apply. Toyota also should be aware with better ride and handling. The riding convenient may depend on this handling feature. Then, better suspension in noise reduction will come into next hope. Toyota should less its vibration and harshness (NVH). It won't be interesting to know that in that such a convenient car, you still have to hear a disrupting sound while riding the 2015 Toyota hilux concept.
2015 Toyota hilux should increase braked towing capacity to 3000kg from 2500kg in recent model. It seems that the current version of Toyota car is not that enough to be called safe. Many people hope that the new version of Toyota will come in better safety condition, in which they need to complete active and passive safety features. Then, we come into discussion about power engine, horsepower and torque should be increased. Toyota Hilux 2015 which has adopted the European technology should also adopt the European steering box. Last but not least, the electronic for controlling stability should be added to all Hilux models.

The Onslow family at Clandon Park (part 1)
This section of the page features an image gallery, so if you're using a screen reader you may wish to jump to the main content.
The Onslow family have been associated with Clandon Park since 1641, their changing fortunes reflecting on the house and the estate that surrounded them for almost 400 years.
The first Onslow at Clandon Park
Sir Arthur Onslow lived here from 1641 and, like his father and grandfather, served as MP for Surrey. He was a suspect in a failed plot to assassinate Charles II and his brother, later James II. Fines were imposed and Arthur retired to Clandon to concentrate on his passion for fishing. He was extremely popular locally, when he died the procession is said to have stretched 'from Clandon almost to Guildford', offending James II greatly.
Clandon gets a makeover
Arthur's eldest son Sir Richard was responsible for laying out huge formal gardens with beautiful parterres, pools, fountains and avenues. He also commissioned the artist Knyff to paint a panorama of it all. Richard spent many years as MP for Guildford and Chancellor of the Exchequer, eventually becoming the 1st Lord Onslow and the second Onslow Speaker.
Thomas 2nd Lord Onslow was born in 1679 and was a favourite of George I and II. He married the heiress Elizabeth Knight, whose fortune was estimated at the enormous sum of £70,000. With her backing Thomas was able to rebuild Clandon as a fashionable Palladian mansion, the house we see today.
The Great Speaker
Thomas' cousin Arthur became the most famous Onslow. His parents died young and so he was taken in by his Uncle Richard. He joined the family business of politics as a secretary to his uncle but rose to become MP for Guildford and the third Onslow to be Speaker of the House of Commons. He held the post for 33 years in five successive parliaments and was known as the Great Speaker.
Arthur's son George, 4th Lord Onslow, eventually inherited Clandon Park. He commemorated his father and the other Onslow Speakers in the Speakers Parlour. He was made Earl of Onslow and Viscount Cranley by George III in 1801.

I'm looking for a certain pad for Apollo. Right now I'm using a 1in thick professionals choice pad that I love, but his left shoulder is muscling up much more than his right so it is causing my saddle to slightly lean to the right. Its not hugely noticeable and it doesn't seem to bother him (yet) and he doesn't have any soreness; although I know he will if I continue to ride him without proper padding. But I need suggestions on a pad to use for him. I know there are some that you can put pieces of padding into the pockets to pad it how you want but I can't seem to find any that I like and wanted your guys opinions on ones you like. I can't afford to spend a fortune because I'm also going to be buying a new saddle soon...I'm foreseeing my narrower treed saddle is not going to fit him much longer now that he is muscling up.
(I'm guessing that his left shoulder is muscling up more because his right foot is more toed out than his left. He constantly switches his leads when going through the corners of the arena when on his "right" lead...his right leg is not as strong. He's going to be my project/pleasure/trail horse so it is not going to be a huge problem)

90s Vibes: Lana Del Rey for Fader Magazine « Read Less
For those of you who (like me) are super stoked for Lana Del Rey's third album "Ultraviolence," here is a dose of Lana to help ease the wait. The beautiful songstress recently starred as the cover story for Fader Magazine... and it's simply fabulous! I can't get enough of the amazing pieces which have the perfect amount of a 90's vibe. The fabulous editorial, photographed by Geordie Wood, is perfection - set amongst a cool backdrops of Brooklyn. I love it all... and this will definitely feed my Lana addiction until her album comes out!

Environment Maine and Friends of Merrymeeting Bay say turbines on the dams are killing large numbers of young endangered Atlantic salmon trying to make their way back out to sea.
Two Maine groups are asking a federal judge to order the shutdown of turbines at four of the state's hydroelectric dams to save out-migrating populations of young endangered Atlantic salmon.
Environment Maine and Friends of Merrymeeting Bay say turbines on Kennebec River dams kill a third to a half of the young smolts trying to make their way back out to sea, according to studies conducted one of the dams' owners, Florida-based NextEra Energy Resources LLC.
Three of the dams the groups are targeting are located on the Kennebec River. They include the Weston, Shawmut and Lockwood dams. A fourth dam, the Brunswick dam, is located on the Androscoggin River.
"It's been nearly four years since Atlantic salmon were listed as endangered, and NextEra still has failed to take action to save these iconic fish," says Environment Maine Director Emily Figdor, in a statement. "Time is running out to save the Atlantic salmon, and we simply can't delay another season."
The two groups filed a motion for a preliminary injunction last week in U.S. District Court in Portland, citing the Endangered Species Act. The defendants include NextEra Energy Resources, FPL Energy Maine Hydro, LLC, and affiliated companies.

There are four artists using the name "Meursault": [1] Meursault are a folk band from Edinburgh, Scotland, led by songwriter Neil Pennycook. Meursault are something of an enigma - quite apart from the fact that the band have now been called Mersault and Meuersault in the national press. Live they swing wildly between the euphoric battering delivered by the full band setup and a rather more spare, plaintive sound when Neil plays solo, or as part of a duo with whichever of the band happens to be available at the time.

For us, recent months have been filled with boxes, trucks, trailers, carloads, shelves, storage units, and MORE boxes of drum parts. Nearly 20 years worth of collected drum stock and stuff had to find a new home when we were forced to leave our longtime Nashville warehouse. It's been the biggest ordeal of my lifetime.
I'm happy to announce that our move has finally been completed and new our workspace is coming together quickly. Lots of restock is incoming weekly and shipping of orders has been ramping up for the past few weeks.
Do you have an order with us that you think may have been lost during our move? Look it up & track the progress here.
Many thanks to the awesome friends and volunteers who helped us make it through this transition and super big thanks to our customers who have waited patiently for their drum parts and supplies during the madness. Now, let's get back to making drums!

Sounds delicious, but unable to figure out the quantity of corn bread needed, recipe lack the amount of cornbread, is this a guess what you think recipe? My, I could have just played around with it myself. Just read the reviews so no longer need to add mine, too sweet stopped me, dressing is a savoury dish. Happy Holidays to all out thereflag if inappropriate
Had this for Thanksgiving this year and not a crumb left by day's end. Added 1/2 red, orange, green pepper as was concerned about not having enough to go around. Used cornbread from Whole Foods. It was delicious and thoroughly enjoyed by all.flag if inappropriate
We modified this recipe by eliminating the egg which made it a tad healthier. We loved it and will make it again next Thanksgiving.flag if inappropriate
Meh. Full disclosure - I had no celery, which I'm sure is a significant contributer to the flavor and texture profile. Still I found this muddled in both taste and texture. I added spices to the cornbread to amp it up - powdered garlic, cumin and chipotle chili pepper. Glad I did or it would have been so bland. I'm gonna try it again with more modifications...include the celery and add some bell pepper and white bread cubes...maybe cilantro. This recipe definitely needs a boost.flag if inappropriate
I made this for Thanksgiving also, one thing I noticed is the shopping list didnot include conbread, fortunatly I had a box of Jiffy mix which worked out well. I did use about 1 1/4 cup of broth. It was great!flag if inappropriate
I made this on Thanksgiving and my family loved it. I used cornbread from whole foods that I cut into pieces the night before and put them in a plastic bag to dry, and followed the directions to dry further. Also, I did not add the entire can of broth at once, only about half to begin with then added with the baster as I cooked. It turned out perfect. Thank you !flag if inappropriate
everyone liked except me, found the corn bread made it too sweet. And if it's not stuffed in something it's not stuffing, it's dressing.flag if inappropriate
I liked the idea of this dish, but the recipe needs a good bit of tweaking to get a really great product. First, the Skillet Cornbread recipe is just bad... dry, mealy, and flavorless. The result is a finished product that just doesn't really wow. Second, the 4oz of chorizo is not nearly enough. This needs at least double that amount.flag if inappropriate
How much cornbread do I use? I will get store bought....flag if inappropriate
I made this last Thanksgiving and will make it again this year. Huge hit! Everyone asked for leftovers.flag if inappropriate
