"Helping Americans with High Energy Costs"
As winter turns to spring here in Maine, we look forward to warmer days and nights. This will be welcome news to those of us who heat our homes with heating oil. Since 2004, heating oil has increased from an average price of $1.93/gallon to the current level of more than $3.85 per gallon.
For more than 25 years, one of our most effective tools to help less-fortunate households and senior citizens keep warm during the winter has been the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, or LIHEAP. Last year, LIHEAP assisted some 8 million households nationwide; nearly 50,000 were in Maine. This federal block grant program to the states has proven itself to be both well run and invaluable. Moreover, the funds invested in LIHEAP help stimulate the economy, generating $1.13 in economic activity for every dollar in benefits paid, according to a recent economic analysis.
It is critical that Congress confront challenging fiscal decisions, and we need to work together to address our country's deficit in a manner that will promote job growth and economic recovery. However, as our country has struggled with a weak economy and a high jobless rate, more and more people live in poverty. As energy costs have increased, LIHEAP funding has been an important lifeline that helps prevent people from having to choose between heating their home, paying their bills, or going without food or medicine.
The President originally proposed to cut the level of LIHEAP funding in half in Fiscal Year 2012. Despite bipartisan efforts to restore much of the funding, the overall level was eventually cut by 25 percent. As a result, the average amount paid to recipients was reduced, presenting a real challenge for low-income households and seniors in Maine.
In an effort to prevent this from happening again, I recently joined several of my colleagues urging the Senate Appropriations Committee to fund LIHEAP for Fiscal Year 2013 at no less than the Fiscal Year 2011 level of $4.7 billion. In addition, I am urging support for key energy efficiency and clean energy programs, such as the Weatherization Assistance Program, that not only help create jobs, but also save money through reduced energy consumption in homes, delivering substantial and long-term savings on heating and cooling bills. The Weatherization Assistance Program helps low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities improve the energy efficiency of their homes, freeing up finite resources for other essentials like food and medicine. Weatherization saves an average $437 in annual utility bill costs, and those savings can stay within the local economy and have a large "multiplier effect," spurring further job growth and economic development. A study by Oak Ridge National Laboratory found that for every $1 invested in the program, weatherization returns $2.51 in benefits to the household and society. Providing funding for this program will help ensure that states have the resources to reduce the increasing burden of high energy prices on low-income families.
Severe cuts to the LIHEAP program would result in harmful consequences for our most vulnerable families and senior citizens. Responsible investments in this program, and others such as the Weatherization Assistance Program, will help provide those in need with relief from high energy prices and enhance the efficient use of energy well into the future.

The pre-order bonuses for the upcoming hack-and-slasher DmC: Devil May Cry have been announced as souped-up weapons and a few different helpful items. As usual, the bonus you receive depends on where you make your purchase.
Players that lock in their pre-order at Gamestop or EB Games (Canada) will receive the Samurai Pack, which puts a fresh coat of paint on Dante's weapons. The shotgun, scythe, and axe will transform into samurai-style weapons for a different style of brutality. These are just different skins and not whole new items.
The Samurai Pack also starts players out with free upgrade points to pump up weapons and combos or purchase items as soon as they jump into the game.
Here's a look at the Samurai Pack in action.
Best Buy customers will receive the Golden Pack, which includes access to the Item Finder and transforms the three main weapons into "glistening gold instruments of death".
The Bone Pack is set aside for Amazon shoppers and, as the name suggests, gives the three weapons the appearance that they were crafted from bone. This pack also grants access to the Orb Harvester, which upgrades and enhances Dante's weapons and combo perks at an accelerated rate.
Players can get their hands on DmC: Devil May Cry for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on January 15. PC players will need to wait a bit longer for a release later in 2013.
Now that you know your options, which bonus pack will you be hunting down?

MOUNDSVILLE, W.Va. – A West Virginia mother faces charges after being accused of burning the word "wimp" into her 6-year-old daughter's neck.
Tammy Smith is charged with five counts of child abuse and of malicious assault, all felonies.
Moundsville Police Chief Jim Kudlak said Saturday that the child told police that her mother used a cigarette to burn her. Smith's daughter told authorities that her mother burned her because she was angered that the girl tripped and fell.
An employee at the child's school noticed the burns and police were called Wednesday. The girl is in foster care.
The 43-year-old Smith is being held in jail on $50,000 bond. Kudlak says he doesn't think she has an attorney yet.
Moundsville is in northern West Virginia.

No. 71 Blue Demons Look to Continue Winning Streak at Home
Feb. 8, 2013
The Blue Demons (3-2) swept two teams last weekend, recording three wins in three days and dropping just one singles point against Milwaukee, Butler and Eastern Michigan.
Reigning BIG EAST Player of the Week Matea Cutura leads DePaul at the top spot in the singles lineup, recording a 4-1 record so far in duals and a 14-3 overall record in her first season of collegiate tennis. Cutura has three ranked wins on her resume this season and will get the opportunity to add another against Utah, a team featuring three nationally-ranked singles players.
The Utes (1-1) have competed in just two dual matches thus far - a neutral win over No. 69 Stephen F. Austin and a road loss to No. 11 Texas. Highlighting the singles lineup are a trio of ranked players in No. 72 Tereza Bekerova, No. 103 Sarah Pham and No. 123 Callie Craig. On the doubles side, Utah fields the 23rd ranked pair of Bekerova and Paige Miles.
DePaul will be looking to turn the tables on the Utes from the last time the two programs met. In 2010, No. 71 Utah escaped with a 5-2 decision over the 22nd-ranked Blue Demons after taking five straight singles points to close the match.
Iowa is also 1-1 on the young season with a win at rival Iowa State and a heartbreaking loss, 4-3, to No. 18 Notre Dame in Iowa City.
Last season, then-ranked No. 38, DePaul was upset by the Hawkeyes in Chicago when the Blue Demons dropped a 5-2 decision after running out to an early 2-0 lead behind a doubles point win and a victory at first singles. Junior Ruth Seaborne leads the Hawkeyes at first singles with a 2-0 record, including wins over Iowa State's top singles player and nationally-ranked Brittany Sanders (No. 58) of Notre Dame.
Iowa holds an 11-2 series advantage over DePaul and has won its last 22 matches when claiming the doubles point.
DePaul's meeting with the Utes is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Blue Demons then face Iowa on Sunday with first serve scheduled for 1:00 p.m. CT.

We show 3 pictures of the beautiful Montclair interiors below. These are all of the 293TS model (see floorplans below), which is the longest Montclair at 29'3". The pictures do however give an idea of the quality of these really nice Monaco interiors:
We show the 5 floorplans for the B plus below. (To maximize the space available, these are not shown to the same scale of course.) The first is the 213 - the shortest model, just 21'11", with no slide-outs. MSRP from $59,553:
Next we show the 235S. A similar arrangement but with a slide-out and a rear kitchen. On a Ford chassis, MSRP from $63,403:
Next we show the 252DS - 26'2" long with 2 slides giving a very spacious living area. This model has a hide-a-bed sofa. MSRP from $70,525 with a gas engine, or $78,645 with the diesel engine option:
The 282 is 28'7" and with a bedroom arrangement. There is a booth dinette option with this model. :MSRP from $72,661 with a gas engine, or $$80,781 with the diesel engine option:
Finally the 29'3" 293TS model with 3 slides. Once again this model, as with the 252DS, has a hide-a-bed sofa but with the benefit of the bedroom and a very nice use of all the available space. MSRP from $77,605 with a gas engine, or $85,725 with the diesel engine option::

Here's one of my efforts from the studio shoot during the Rowardennan Meet - a portrait of Joanna, the light and life of our Saturday evening out at the hotel.
I thought Joanna was a good sport, letting so many of us photograph her. Fun to be with, too - almost always cheerful. And don't you think she has not just a cheerful, but almost slightly mischievous look on her face? Or maybe I'm reading that into the picture, since I remember Saturday night...
Anyway, the studio setup was great, and made it sooooo easy to shoot this. All I did to the shot after processing it in RSE, was to paint out the chesterfield settee in PhotoShop and remove a few minor skin blemishes.
I'm not normally someone who takes portrait pics, so let me know what you think - comments and mods welcome!
Thanks for looking,
P.S. And thanks to Chris for lending me a flash gun and suggesting the right settings!

Matt, thanks, that works really well! So yes, I would like to know exactly what you did. (Still a bit daunted by PhotoShop work, sometimes - I get lost in the many options and tools...) You didn't really think, btw, that I wouldn't like your mod? It looks very good, thanks!
Rodd - We do like to choose our pics carefully, but I suppose it is indeed hard to get a bad shot of a pretty lady with a bubbly personality!

Thanks Conrad - glad you liked the mod
First off, the credit goes to Katrin Eismann and her excellent book "Photoshop Restoration and Retouching"... page 118-120 of the second edition.
Correcting skin colour using CMYK:
* Select the image and copy to the clipboard
* Create a new image, change the mode to CMYK
* Paste in the image
Now you've got a CMYK version...
* Use the dropper to sample skin colour
* There should be next to zero black (K) content
* Look at the Cyan (C), and magenta (M) should be about double, with yellow (Y) being a little more. e.g. 20C 40M 50Y
* Add a curves adjustment layer
* Select the Magenta, grab the middle and drag it down - sample the skin until you get it where you want
* Select the Yellow curve and drag up a touch
* Select the Black curve and drag down - don't worry if the whole image goes lighter
* Once you're happy, flatten and copy
* Now switch back to the original RGB image and paste the new corrected version on top.
Now, I found that, because I reduced the black to correct the skin tones, the rest went too light.
So, add a Hide-All layer mask and paint back white around the skin with a 50% brush.
I still found it a touch too much, so I added a Hue/Sat layer, selected the "Reds" and brought down the saturation to -3, lightness +4.
* Add a new blank layer
* Change layer blend mode to "Darken"
* Pick the clone tool, opacity 10% to 50%
* Make sure "Sample All Layers" is checked
* Sample nearby skin and clone over the highlights
* When done, maybe reduce layer opacity a touch.
Just used the dodge and burn technique on my Eye Tutorial on this site...
* Whitened eye whites (as mentioned on the tutorial)
* New layer
* Blend mode = Soft-Light
* Paint white at 10% opacity, large soft brush
* I also tweaked the "Blend-If" on the layer blend properties so that shadows were not affected (ie so it lifted mid tones primarily)
That's pretty much it really. You can do the skin tone correction in RGB with curves, but the CMYK method is a breeze once you've tried it.
If you haven't seen Katrin's book(s) - definitely, definitely read them Her web site is: www.photoshopdiva.com and there are some excellent freebie tutorials buried in her site too!!
(BTW, writing this out took far longer than the mod! LOL!)
Hope that helps!

Congestive prostatitis: treatment and prevention
July 31st, 2012 by admin
Prostatitis is a common men's disease, associated with prostate gland enlargement. There are several types of prostatitis depending of the cause of the disease, among which are bacterial and non-bacterial prostatitis. If the enlargement is caused by fluids congestion, the medical condition is referred to as congestive prostatitis.
Prolonged arousal without ejaculation and withdraw at the time of ejaculation are the most common causes of prostate swelling. Besides this condition may be caused by one of the following conditions:
- blue balls, or testicles pain that occurs when the blood fills the vessels in a genital area during sexual arousal and is not dissipated by orgasm;
- benign prostatic hyperplasia, or increase of the prostate;
- chronic prostatitis;
- alcoholism or excessive alcohol consumption;
- prostate cancer;
- previous spinal cord injury;
- frequent constipation;
- urethra, bladder and kidney inflammation;
- sitting life-style;
- hormonal imbalance;
- cysts in urinary tract.
Prostatic congestion is more common in elderly males, however it may affect both adults and children.
Symptoms and diagnosis
The most common symptoms of congestive prostatitis is frequent feeling of the urge to urinate. Lower abdominal pain and localized discomfort may be experienced as a result of inflammation. Since a lot of other urinary tract diseases features these symptoms, prostatic congestion is often misdiagnosed. Besides, the disease may pass asymptomatic. In order to confirm the disease, PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood test should be done.
Although congestive prostatitis is not a life-threatening disorder, it is not likely to go away on its own, so you should seek medical care as soon as you notice some signs or symptoms of the disease. Congestive prostatitis may be relieved by keeping the doctor's recommendation. Among the common ways of treatment are the following:
- more frequently ejaculation or masturbation is considered efficient for congestion reducing by releasing fluid buildup;
- regularly prostate massage may help relieve the swelling. The massage requires prostate gland stimulation via the anus, through internal access. It is recommended not to perform this massage on your own but to visit a trained physician;
- walking is the best natural prostate's massage, which may help to prevent and to relieve the symptoms of the enlargement. Walk at least thirty minutes a day to reduce the discomfort;
- warm sits baths (for 10-15 minutes daily) may also provide relief;
- some physician believe that herbs such as nettle and echinacea may help to reduce inflammation;
- medications are not normally used for treatment.
Prostatic congestion is much easier to prevent than to treat. To keep your prostate healthy, keep the following recommendations:
- keep regular sex life, but keep in mind that too frequent ejaculations are also harmful for the prostate;
- keep healthy weight;
- avoid alcohol drinking;
- try not to sit for a long time;
- lead active and healthy mode of live;
- prevent urinary tract infections by avoiding unprotected sexual contacts;
- make regular visits to your urologist.
By keeping these recommendations you would be able to prevent not only prostatic congestion, but a range of other urinary tract diseases.

Q1:what does the opening statement of the chapter say about the protagonist's reliability?
I think this book isn't written by real.
At the first of the sentence in the story.the author told us :"this is written from memory,unfortunately."and if he could have brought with him the material ,this would be a very different story.then whole books full of notes ,carefully copied records , firsthand eyes of the cities and pictures-that's the worst loss.
Q2:The men discuss the idea of "civilization"in the first chapter. Find examples of their discussion and put it into your own words.How do these three men define civilization? What do they state must be in civilization?
Q3:What differences do jeff and Terry have when it comes to what they think about women?
Jeff's ideas and Terry's were so far apart that sometimes it was all I could do to keep the peace between them .

Australia has a large array of plants that are endemic to our country (only found native in Australia). This includes around 80% of the country's flowering plants. Of all the states, Queensland has the greatest variety of native plant groups in Australia. Most of these native plant species are considered non-threatened but more than 1,000 (about 13%) are vulnerable or endangered. The conservation of our native plants provide habitat for wildlife, protects species diversity and provides local catchment improvement which leads to better water quality and public amenity.
Native Plants
Conservation of our native plants is important as they provide habitat for wildlife, contribute to species diversity and aid in local catchment improvement.

Last week, I gave you a nice list of DVDs for younger kids. This week it's time to give a little love to the older kids in the family. Sure, they'll sneak a peek at the younger sibs' kiddie flicks when they think you aren't looking, but they really want to know that you know they're getting older, and they have their own taste in movies. Some of these recommendations are more current films that older kids might enjoy; others are well-loved classics you might remember from your own teen-hood. In any case, adding a couple of these selections to your shopping list for that tween or teen in your life is sure to make you tops on their list.
- High School Musical -- If you have a tween or teen daughter in your house, chances are fair-to-middling that you already know what High School Musical is. You've probably been subjected to repeated viewings of it, and had the catchy songs from the show stuck in your head at the most inappropriate moments (trust me, there are few things more likely to put a damper on a sexy mood than your partner hearing you hum "We're All In This Together" from the show during an intimate moment). Nonetheless, as my husband could tell you, having just survived a night at the High School Musical Live Tour with our 9-year-old daughter, this film, its songs, and its stars are like pre-teen crack. You have some hard decisions to make in your selection: Should you go with the Encore edition, or the two-disc remix edition? Should you up your coolness quotient by tossing in the High School Musical Karoake CD? That's a decision only you can make.
- Kubrick Madness -- The teen years are the best time for introducing your kids to the delicious genius of Stanley Kubrick, via some of his better films. If you're feeling like being a little spendy, you can snag the seven-disc Kubrick Collection for just under $200, but if Santa isn't feeling quite that generous, save some bucks and put together your own Kubrick Pack. My picks? Dr. Strangelove, natch -- one of the best films ever made. This one's a must for the older set. Extra points if you start overhearing your teen and his friends saying things like, "Let's get this thing on a hump -- we got some flyin' to do!" and "You can't fight in here! This is the War Room!" Round out your Kubrick fix with my other fave Kubrick gem, A Clockwork Orange (goth teens will especially appreciate this one), and to round it out, 2001: A Space Odyssey. Just because.
- Donnie Darko -- Donnie Darko is a great first pic to choose to expose your teen to films outside the multiplex. This film came out when my oldest was 16, and she and her friends latched onto it immediately. A trippy teenager with an invisible friend -- a rabbit who tells him to commit crimes? As an added bonus, it also has Patrick Swazyze, so you can totally gross your teen out with tales of how hot Swayze's ass was in Dirty Dancing, and how you and your friends used to watch it over and over again just to see him getting nasty with Jennifer Grey on the dance floor. For added fun, you and your spouse can mortify your teen by demonstrating aforesaid dirty dancing while singing "I Had the Time of My Life" at the top of your lungs. Teens love that.
- Monty Python and the Holy Grail -- Another great quotable film, and not just for the teen set. Nine-to-eleven-year-olds (at least, if my daughter and her friend are any indication) find this movie absolutely hysterical. Any Monty Python will do, really (my 4th grade Girl Scouts love doing "silly walks"), but if you have to choose just one, this would be my pick. One note of caution: Don't expose your teens to too many British flicks at once, or they'll start to get the idea that it's super-cool to walk around talking in fake British accents. Teens today didn't invent this game -- my friends and I used to speak with all kinds of fake accents when we'd hang at the mall (my personal specialty was pretending to be a Polish exchange student, which, since I'm half-Polish, I felt I could almost pull off, especially in Oklahoma, where the likelihood of anyone actually knowing Polish was pretty slim) -- but trust me, it sounds so much more annoying when you're pushing 40 and you hear teens doing flitting around doing wretched Brit accents.
- Rocky Horror Picture Show -- Okay, maybe you're not the type of parent who wants to necessarily encourage your teen son or daughter to want to run around a movie theater wearing lingerie and yelling at a movie screen. Chances are, though, if they're inclined to be drawn to weird stuff like RHPS, they're likely already going there anyhow when you think they're at a "church lock-in" (yeah, I used that one a few times -- but it's okay, I always confessed and did my Hail Marys afterward). This film is definitely not for the younger set, but older teens -- especially if you have one of those artsy intellectual teens who reads Nietzsche and glowers a lot -- will love it. With some teens, though, you have to watch out for your inherent parental uncoolness causing them to reject it outright as "lame." Save this one for when they're 16 or 17, and when they unwrap it, sharply say, "Who gave you that? I'm not sure I think that's appropriate ... " Your adolescent son will be singing "Sweet Transvestite" in the bathroom mirror while using a bath towel as a boa before you can say Magenta.
- Rebel Without a Cause -- The classic rebellious teen flick that set the gold standard for all future rebellious teen flicks. Teenage sons will appreciate James Dean's coolness factor, while the girls will swoon over his inherent bad-boy good looks. It's not as flashy as the crap they're used to seeing at the multiplex, but it's one of the best stories ever written for film. Every time I see this film, I'm blown away by how relevant it still is today, more than 50 years after it was written. You could also dig a little deeper and get the James Dean Collection for a little more moolah.
- Brick-- This film-noir-meets-high-school flick was one of the sharpest films to come out in 2006. Tight, cleverly crafted dialogue, surprising moments, stellar performance by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and an interesting, fast-paced story make this DVD an excellent choice for older teens. And hey, if you're into proselytizing, you can use the film as an excellent launching pad for a serious discussion on the dangers of hanging out with drug kingpins who still live with their mom.

Hello, everyone! While I'm a big fan of classic Dragonlance - "Dragons of Autumn Twilight", "Dragons of Winter Night", and "Dragons of Spring Dawning" -, I absolutely loved the "Dragonlance Fifth Age" setting (I also liked very much the SAGA System rules, but that's not important right now ); I despised the whole War of Souls story not only for being simply bad (in my humble opinion, of course), but also for basically retconning the Fifth Age away.
However, I've gotten the impression that I'm one of the few people that liked the setting; from what I've seen, most despise it with a passion usually reserved for "Highlander 2". What I'd like to know is, why? Why do people not like "Dragonlance Fifth Age"? Is it because it's quite different from classic Dragonlance? Is it because of the SAGA rules? Perhaps both?

The U.S. Energy Dept. is soon to give Chicago-based energy services provider Exelon Corp. "reasonable assurance" of a $50-million agency loan guarantee to spur construction of what would be the nations largest urban solar powerplant, says an Exelon spokesman. Development of the 10-MW photovoltaic facility at a former industrial site on Chicagos South Side, to be finished by the end of 2009, is contingent on receiving the loan guarantee for 80% of its $60-million cost, says the spokesman. Exelon and its partner, San Jose, Calif.-based SunPower, have begun clearing the 39-acre brownfield site where the plant would be built. SunPower would design, manufacture and install the plants 32,800 solar panels. Exelon says it expects to hear from the agency on the guarantee in June or July.

Check our team blog at http://blogs.sun.com/javamesdk/
And also forum at http://forums.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=999
Good news for PhoneME developers. It is possible to extend JME SDK with just released PhoneME Feature MR4 runtime. Details will be posted on our team blog.
You would think in order to support Solaris/OpenSolaris, a *nix version would be high on the priority list.
I also find this very disappointing.
BTW there is a mac version out : sun_java_me_sdk-3_0-ea-mac.dmg
( http://blogs.sun.com/javamesdk/entry/what_s_going_with_mac#comment-12626... )

some tracks :
And as always Windohs only.
Come on folks. Unix, isn't that what Sun does? Maybe you could find someone that knows SOMETHING about Unix/Linux/Mac(ie BSD), and could port it?
Please tell me that only the PreVerifier is the hold up for the all Java WTK? And after 10years do you think we could write that little pain in Java and be done with the porting issues.
same here...
I'm excited about SDK 3.0, it sounds great, hypothetically. I'll know when i can actually run it on linux. Until then, more 2.5.2. I wonder too... will the linux version finally be able to play back mp3s? like its some crazy new format or something you know? I feel like i'm stuck 5 years back in the history of J2ME.
still though, can't wait, looking forward to it.

The Agile Security Plan: Social Engineering
By Liam Reimers | January 30, 2009
In an ever-changing financial landscape, corporate agility in multiple areas is the key to longevity. Computer and network health and security is one area where you don't want your company to get stiff and old – protecting data and other network resources is critical. Keeping the company security-fit means a proactive security plan that embraces both technology and management practices designed to thwart any would-be interlopers, as well as continuing review and assessment of that technology and those practices.
There are many ways to attempt to gain access to a corporate computer network; unsecured wi-fi and Internet based attacks like port scanning, for example. However, among the most insidious is a technique known as "social engineering." This is where an attacker uses social methods, not technological, to gain access to your computer network by gaining a user's trust and exploiting that trust, often gaining a valid user name and password in the process. Now that's a security hole no administrator wants on their network! What's really needed to stay on point with regards to overall security is a third-party audit by someone who has no interest in anything other than your security status.
Redspin is one company that can help you define and mitigate the possible weaknesses in your corporate security. Not only are they well versed with the technology at their disposal to test your digital defenses, they will test your company in other ways as well – just like the bad guys. We regularly read their Security Management Advisories as part of our own ongoing process of integrating new threats and protections into our own Internet Security Manager, and we've worked with them in the past to help evaluate and improve our own security practices.
Redspin currently has an excellent SMA on the basics of social engineering posted on their site. Check it out at the link below to get a better insight into what social engineering might mean to your business and what Redspin can help you do about it.

ISM Now Protects Against Conficker/DownandUp Worm
By Craig Cocca | January 19, 2009
For the past several day, the Conficker/DownandUp worm has spread to over 9 million Windows PCs. This worm spreads by exploiting weak passwords, open file shares, USB drives, and other means of infecting a network "from the inside out".
The Internet Security Manager Team updated the ISM on Friday to prevent connections from PCs infected with the Conficker/DownandUp worm to the servers that are hosting and controlling the virus. This action will greatly limit the chances of the virus being completely installed on a PC, and will prevent the spread of the worm.
We also recommend that you immediately install Microsoft Patch MS08-067 on all of the Windows PCs in your network to close the security hole that allows this worm to spread.

Rogue DHCP Server Detection Enhancement
By Liam Reimers | January 15, 2009
If you've run a network for any length of time, you've probably run into this once or twice: someone plugs in a WAP so that they can roam with their laptop, and all of a sudden people start complaining about not being able to connect to network resources. Sometimes, you don't even get the information about a new WAP being plugged in. If it's happened to you, you are probably already thinking, "rogue DHCP server."
The ISM has just been enhanced to detect any internal network segment that has one or more DHCP servers making offers. A new line item has been added to the bottom of the Network section of the firewall overview on the web interface called "DHCP Servers." This line will display all DHCP servers detected by the ISM, and which segment they appear on. If more than one is detected on a single segment, something that is always undesirable, the line will be highlighted in red. Additionally, it raises an alert and you will recieve a call from the security desk.
This enhancement has been added to every ISM at no additional cost. Just another way we try to help you manage your network!

There is a great Windows Security article over at ZDNet today concerning the ever-growing problem of Zombie PCs, infected computers that send out spam, attack other computers, and spread viruses. An unprotected PC can become drafted into the "botnet army" in less than 5 minutes. The Internet Security Manager helps to prevent the PCs on a LAN from becoming infected by monitoring network activity with the LAN Scanner and Threat Alert.

Spammers Break CAPTCHA Verification for Several Major Webmail Systems
By Craig Cocca | July 3, 2008
ZDNet is reporting that the text-based human verification system known as CAPTCHA has been compromised by automated systems at Yahoo, Hotmail, and Gmail. This is allowing hackers to automatically sign up for free e-mail accounts that can be used for spam, scams, and phishing. This presents a challenging problem for spam prevention, as mail coming from legitimate Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo servers is not often marked as spam by most anti spam systems.
More information on this can be found at http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1418&tag=nl.e540

Serious bug in Windows Bluetooth Persists
By Wes Zuber | June 24, 2008
A recently released patch for XP Windows users did not work as expected. The bug, referenced in this bulletin from Microsoft allows a nearby bluetooth hacker to compromise an XP machine that has bluetooth enabled. We recommend that bluethooth be disabled on a laptop until the fix has been pushed out through the regular Microsoft update mechanism.

Being a Good Mother: Choose the Rules or Unleash Your Own Power? ~ Sarah Luczaj
Being a good mother is like being a good anything. You can strive to attain it, or you can just do it.
From the attainment side, it's a question of choosing the right rules to follow and living up to them, being consistent. Defining the role and devoting yourself to it. Measuring up. Failure and success. Effort.
And from the inside? Being a good mother is a question of passing on your power. Your hard-won inner light, your confusion, your realness and your boundaries.
Because whatever you do as a mother, the default program, like it or not, is to pass on who you are. No set of rules, which you agree with intellectually, even those chosen with the greatest intelligence and good will, are going to stop you passing on your own denial, confusion, anger, ad infinitum.
All those things you have "ruled out" will sneak in under the radar. The whole message is what children hear, not the carefully chosen words. They hear instinctively, with their bodies, their nervous systems, their emotions and all those interconnections that we bundle up into a thing called intuition.
So if you are trying to be good, for fear of the consequences of being your natural "bad" self, your children will pick up fear and tension. Measuring up. Failure and success. Effort. They will learn how to be good, of course. And how it feels to be good—at best a momentary respite from the constant striving.
They might as well decide that being bad is a more fulfilling option or they might not even discern that option, it might seem impossible. One of the most difficult things about being a mother is coming to terms with the fact that whatever you "give" your children, good or bad, what they make of it is out of your control.
Being a good mother from the inside, then, is about taking care of—or indeed unleashing—your own light and power. This may take a lot of work, not on being a good mother, but being a 'good you'.
As a result, while sometimes being hurt or confused or inconsistent or all these things at once, you will nonetheless transmit the message that you are able to live all these things, because they are normal, human states, not signs that you are bad or are doing something wrong.
So you won't be creating extra tension by fighting the "bad stuff," trying to control it or pretending that it is not there. You will send out a message that it's basically alright to be how you are, to feel what you feel, that you are more than those transitory states, however devastating they might be at the time.

But they should know in their guts, at the very least, that if their resilience is ever stretched to breaking point, if it ever snaps, if they ever feel unable to love themselves as they are, their mother will, because she knows how.

13 Responses to "Being a Good Mother: Choose the Rules or Unleash Your Own Power? ~ Sarah Luczaj"
So much food for thought. As a control freak, this really hit me in the gut: One of the most difficult things about being a mother is coming to terms with the fact that whatever you "give" your children, good or bad, what they make of it is out of your control. I definitely need to work on being a good me!
Hi Cori,
I think you don't need to be a control freak to be terrified by the lack of control we have over how their lives develop – I certainly am from time to time – being terrified is part of the deal!
All the best to you…
Brilliant! And so validating. As the mother (for many of them, a single mom) of a 31 year old daughter (yikes!) I can say I did my share of "striving" but what ultimately mattered to my girl was my fierce devotion to her (which she could feel no matter how inadequate I might have felt at the time) and my dedication to provide her with a mother who is a real person, says she's sorry when she screws up (which I did, often), laughs, loves, lives her dreams. My daughter tells me all the time how glad she is to have a mom like me. Thanks for the terrific article.
Hey, Kim!
this is beautiful – fierce devotion being the main message that comes across through all the striving… how what matters at the end of the day is being a real person who laughs, loves and lives her dreams. So your daughter doesn't have to live with the weight of your unlived dreams. ..
And if you're the Kim I think you are – I can personally say that you are a wonderful mother!
Hi Sarah! Yes, I'm that Kim. 😉 xo
Brilliant article!
Cheers, Cecilia!
a nice read!
Thanks, Luke!
I completely agree with you here, Sarah.
I'll never be a 'mother', but I think most of this applies to us of the male persuasion too. Hopefully I get to broach this challenge sooner, rather than later!
thanks for your comment. Of course it applies to parents of all persuasions! I think I should have made that clear. It's just that 'good mother' phrase that in itself I think creates extra pressure for women. We are supposed to be this thing – and what is it, really?
Thanks for this great article, Sarah. As it happens, I read it at a time that was particularly apt and helpful in my own mothering – 2 young adults.
[…] I stayed up too late once again, clutching on to my few hours of mommy freedom. I have to remind myself that midnight and mommyhood don't mix. […]

KINGSTON, Ontario Don Cherrys famous suits are about to take on a new dimension for north country TV viewers.
CKWS TV out of Kingston plans to switch from an analog to a digital signal in April. The stations chief engineer will flip the switch early on April 25.
In the Watertown area, CKWS is on channel 11 over the air and on Time Warner Cable.
The CKWS transmitter is on Wolfe Island. It will switch from analog 11 to digital channel 11.1 on April 25. Viewers who now watch the station using an antennawill need a digital receiver (found on all televisions sold in the U.S. since 2007) or a digital converter box to continue watching after April 25. The quality experienced by viewers will be noticeably clearer and sharper.
Well be covering the same area with our digital signal as with our analog signal, said CKWS news and television operations manager Jay D. Westman.
But, Mr. Westman explained, even though the digital footprint signal will cover the same area as the analog signal, Its really not something that can be predicted 100 percent before the actual switch takes place.
As for the stations digital cable feed in the north country, a Time Warner spokeswoman said a plan is being worked out.
Were starting to work with the station on our options for carrying their signal once they convert to digital next month, spokeswoman Stephanie Salanger wrote in an email. We have been through a similar exercise with other stations before, so its not unusual.
Ms. Salanger said Time Warner plans to continue carrying CKWS.
But right now, we are just working through how we get their signal once it switches from analog to digital from an engineering perspective, she wrote.
Mr. Westman said CKWSs switch to digital is not mandated by the Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Commission. In 2009, the Federal Communications Commission mandated that all television broadcasts in the U.S. be digital.
Mr. Westman said a similar law to the American law went into effect in Canada in 2011, but it affected only large markets.
We decided to go ahead and make the switch on our own, he said.
Most of the programming on CKWS comes from CBC, but the independent station is not a CBC affiliate.
One of the most popular programs it carries is Saturday nights Hockey Night in Canada, where Mr. Cherry, 79, a Kingston native, is an analyst on Coachs Corner and is known for his contentious comments and dazzling, often flowery, suits.
CKWS will still be broadcasting over the air with a traditional analog signal on channel 36, transmitted from north of Smith Falls, and channel 26 in Spencerville. These signals, however, cover a much more localized area than the Wolfe Island transmitter.
Northern New York residents also receive the Canadian station CJOH through Time Warner and over the air. A CJOH spokesman said the station serves only the Ottawa area in high definition. It does have a rebroadcast transmitter serving the Kingston area but there are no plans to switch to digital.
Thousands of readers like you have made Northern New York Newspapers the number one ranked website* for local news and sports coverage in the north country.

DOL Releases Model Marketplace (Exchange) and Revised COBRA Notices
Posted on May 30, 2013
Jill Bergman
If you are an employer subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), (as most employers are) the ACA requires you give every employee on their date of hire a notice about the ACA healthcare Marketplaces (the new term being used for exchanges) that become effective January 1, 2014. The notice was supposed to be issued beginning March 1, 2013 (including to your current workforce) however; the Department of Labor (DOL) delayed this until late summer or early fall when they indicated that guidance would be provided. Based on employer feedback, the DOL has issued Technical Release 2013-02 earlier than originally anticipated – so we now have temporary guidance and draft model marketplace notices (as well as an updated COBRA election notice) to use. Employers must start issuing the notice to current and new employees no later than October 1, 2013 which coincides with the beginning of the open enrollment period for the healthcare Marketplaces. If the notice is provided to new employees within 14 days of hire (for 2014 only) you will comply with your notice obligation.
Notice To Inform Employees of Coverage Options
The free notice must be given to all your employees on their start date (you don't have to provide a separate notice to dependents), written in a manner that your employees will understand, and include the following;
The notice may be provided by first class mail or electronically if the DOL rules for the electronic disclosure of information such as ensuring receipt of transmitted information are followed. Employers have the option to use the DOL model notices or create a modified version as long as the required content noted above is properly disclosed.
Model Notices
The DOL created a notice for employers that offer coverage to some or all employees with general statements about the Marketplace (which seems to satisfy the legal requirements noted above) and also includes a section for additional information (about the employer's plan) that employees will need to provide to the Marketplace if that's where they opt for coverage:
Page 3 of the draft model notice is optional however; this information will help ensure employees understand their coverage choices and requests more details about the employer's plan waiting period and the amount and frequency of the wages you pay to the employee.
Employers may need to prepare two versions of this notice depending on whether the coverage is affordable or unaffordable for each employee and be sure to issue the proper notice at the time of hire (or at the time the notice is issued to current employees). Employers may wish to tailor the notice or complete the optional Page 3 for new hires in a waiting period to indicate if coverage will be affordable at the time of initial eligibility (the 90-day waiting period) to enroll in the employer plan.
A separate model notice has been created for employers who do not offer coverage and requests similar employer contact information noted above. It certainly seems more appropriate to use this version of the model notice for employees who may not be eligible for employer-sponsored coverage (such as part-time employees) however; it's unclear whether the DOL really wants part-timers to receive the notice that the DOL states is for employers that offer coverage to some or all employees.
The ACA does not repeal or modify COBRA however; employees who become eligible for COBRA (or other state continuation programs) upon certain Qualifying Events such as termination of service, separation or divorce or aging off a parents plan will have a new option to obtain coverage from a healthcare Marketplace and so the DOL has modified the model COBRA election notice which can be found on the DOL website under Notice to Employees of Coverage Options. A redline version is also available for easy reference to the noted changes.

This post is for people, like myself, who assume things are harder than they usually are. Worked on an analysis yesterday where I needed to map an Access database to a SAS library so I could use the tables in some joins. My first thought was ODBC. I proceeded to setup the connection, only to find out my company didn't give everyone that ability. Bummer. 15 minutes wasted.
Searched around and couldn't find any other ideas. Then I thought, I'm going to try to just reference the database directly in the LIBNAME statement and see what happens. It worked. So, this post is to save people who, like myself, usually try to hard way first, only to find their way back to simplicity.

A Jim Carrey penguin movie. It totally delivers on having Jim Carrey and penguins in it.
Actress Carla Gugino is best know for her roles in Watchmen, Sin City, and HBO's "Entourage."
Also, learn how to play "The New Mr. Popper's Penguins Movie Trailer Drinking Game."
The penguin shouting at him recently Netflixed 'Yes Man' and wasn't thrilled.
It's not asking us to make sense of some random minimalist montage. It's putting on a multi-million dollar show with no restrictions.
Director: Sebastian Gutierrez Cast: Carla Gugino, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Malin Akerman, Timothy Olyphant, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Adrianne Pilacki Synopsis: Life for porn actres Elektra Luxx gets turned upside down when she finds…
Garry Marshall's 'New Years Eve' just added two more pretty people to its actor pile-up thanks to Carla Gugino, and Halle Berry.
She's a porn star, forced to retire a little earlier than she would like because she's pregnant from her rock-star boyfriend. We've all been there…
The tough guy movie of the year is here. Faster is all about the characters and attitude, much more so than action. This is how you make a cool movie. It's not just set pieces. It's an overall tone.
Warner Bros. has unleashed the trailer for Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch. No matter what you're fond of in life, it's probably somewhere in this film. Hot girls, dragons, robots, robot samurai, zepplins, it's all there. The film stars Abbie Cornish, Jamie Chung, Jena Malone, Emily Browning, Vanessa Hudgins, Jon Hamm, Scott Glenn, and Carla Gugino. They all play humans, as far as I can tell, but I'm sure one of them could change into a robot samurai at any moment. I don't even want to attempt putting this movie's plot into words so here's the official synopsis:
CBS Films has dropped a new red band trailer for Faster. It's directed by George Tillman Jr. and stars Dwayne "Don't Call Me The Rock Anymore" Johnson, Billy Bob Thornton,…
The development of a film entitled MILF may seem slightly overdue, but perhaps like a MILF itself, it's best to wait until it's ripe for the picking. Carla Gugino is in talks to star in MILF, only the acronym stands for "Mothers I'd Like to Fight" instead of the meaning you know and love and use on a daily basis.
Gugino would play a woman recently released from prison, hellbent on revenge, who "returns to the street to take care of some unfinished business." It's basically the same idea as Faster, which she is starring in with Dwayne Johnson, except this time she'll do the revenging instead of the chasing of the revenger. From her work in Watchmen, Sin City, and the upcoming Sucker Punch, it's evident that Gugino can handle herself and a gun if necessary. Fingers crossed we can hope for some fighting as well as the other kind of F in MILF. Friendship. (Collider)
The Faster teaser trailer has Tokyo drifted onto the scene. It's nice to see Dwayne Johnson shedding his tooth fairy wings and picking up a gun. He should only kick…
USA Today premiered the first production still of the action movie Faster starring Dwayne Johnson, the wrestler with the eyebrow thing. The Rock (Ooooopsie!) plays "an ex-con pursued by cops and killers as he sets out to avenge his brother's death." The film also stars Billy Bob Thornton, Carla Gugino, and Moon Bloodgood. Now I can think of two reasons to see this film that each have two reasons to see this film. And no, I'm not talking about testicles.The tag for Faster is "Revenge is the only thing that drives him." Thought provoking stuff, but I think that this guy would disagree:Show your chauffeur some respect Dwaaaayne. (/Film)
I'm only writing this up because I wanted to search for pictures of Salma Hayek and Carla Gugino. Let's just take a moment to look at the above side-by-side.Don't rush me!Alright. Gugino is replacing Hayek in the role she bailed on back in January in the revenge thriller Faster. Dwayne "I'm Still Calling Him The Rock" Johnson plays an ex-con on a mission to avenge his brother's murder. A DEADLY mission. Conflict abound! Gugino will play the detective hot on his trail, looking to pin a decade-old case on the people's eyebrow. Hopefully The Rock will pin Carla to a decade-old headboard. Right before they do it sexually on a slightly vintage bedframe. Musty smells turn me on. (Variety)
