Brad Pitt and director Marc Forster have put together a fast-paced, tense and horrifying tale of humanity's survival against a fast-moving virus that turns anyone bitten into a zombie in seconds in "World War Z."
Movie review: 'World War Z'
Pitt plays Gerry Lane, a husband and father who has retired from his dangerous job with the U.N. and is enjoying spending time with his wife, Karin (Mireille Enos), and daughters Constance (Sterline Jerins) and Rachel (Abigail Hargrove).
The Lane family is caught in traffic in downtown Philadelphia when things get strange. A motorcycle police officer clips the family car's side-mirror off as he zips by and Lane gets out to retrieve it. There's a loud explosion and people start running. Looking up he sees a woman jump on the hood of a car and break out the windshield using her head. She grabs the driver and he jumps out of the car to defend himself. As they fight, she bites him and he drops to the ground and is still.
An instant later, his body starts writhing and within 12 seconds his eyes change and he becomes the same type of creature who just attacked him. He attacks his family in their car.
Lane jumps back into his car and follows a runaway garbage truck to get out of the gridlock of downtown. He doesn't get far before he's in a wreck and he has to steal another car to keep moving.
In the middle of all this he gets a call from his former boss at the U.N., Thierry Umutoni (Fana Mokoena), who will send a chopper to rescue his family if they can last the night.
He and his family get stranded in New Jersey and take refuge in an apartment with a helpful family. He offers them asylum if they want to leave, but they don't.
Zombies attack as the Lanes get to the roof, and see their ride and at the last minute, the son from the family, Tommy (Fabirzio Zacharee Guido), runs to join them.
They are taken to a U.S. Navy ship 200 miles out to sea and as his wife and children get settled, Lane talks to his former boss.
Theirry asks him to accompany a Harvard virologist to South Korea, where they believe some of the first cases appeared. It's there they hope they can find how it started and how to fight the disease. Gerry does not want to go and is adamant about it until Theirry threatens to move his family back home in the middle of the zombie riots if he does not.
During the flight, the doctor explains what he is looking for and how Mother Nature hides clues to every disease if you know where to look. It comes in handy on their arrival when they find a room full of incinerated bodies. A clue there takes them to Jerusalem, where the inhabitants curiously built a huge, high wall around their city just before the virus struck.

Media Buying
In battle, you want to stick every guy where he can do the most damage. Every soldier wasted could spell disaster. Advertising is the same way; you can't afford to funnel your dollars into some hole where they're not needed. To keep this from happening, you need a good media buyer.
The art of media buying is about getting your resources positioned to strike. We know you have a finite amount of dollars in your advertising budget, so the first thing we do is get you a good deal. We've spent years developing relationships with media outlets like outdoor vendors, radio stations and television networks. When you come to us, we're prepared to leverage those relationships. It's all about who you know, as the saying goes. We bring negotiation to the table, making sure you get the best rate. We can get you more buying power than you could on your own.
Next, competent practitioners of media buying—like us, of course—help you come up with the right strategy. Simply put, strategy means knowing when and where to strike. You have a lot of different media at your disposal, but you don't necessarily need all of them. Television is strong, though today's consumers can often fast-forward commercials. Radio, a medium that doesn't use visual imagery, has its own set of challenges. Billboards can be powerful tools, but their messages must be quick enough that fast-moving drivers can take in the whole thing. Social media and other new methods can be disastrous if not handled properly. Poor media buying strategy is like bringing a sword to a gunfight; it's not going to work out that well for you.
That's why it's important to have a well-thought-out plan. We can help you figure out the best times and places to reach your target audience. Different demographics prefer different kinds of media: is your target market more likely to receive your message via their smartphones? If you're trying to reach the younger generation, who live their lives between tweets and posts online, that may be the best bet. Or if you're aiming for those who are hesitant to embrace newer technology, the old ways might be best and a good newspaper ad may serve your purposes. We bring the expertise and the research skills you need to match the message to the people. We'll create the media mix that maximizes your campaign's effectiveness. Not to mention your marketing dollars. Want to learn more about media planning?

Brocken spectres are giant shadows cast by hillwalkers when they are positioned between the sun and distant clouds, fog, or mist. The sun projects the person's shadow onto the clouds and, through an optical illusion, magnifies it so it looks like you are a giant. In this example, you can also see the pyramid-like shadow of Schiehallion, a Munro in the South-East Highlands of Scotland. With such a distinct shape, the mountain can be easily recognised from many places in central Scotland. (Photo by Colin Henderson/ASAblanca via Getty Images)

We are not only eating 'materials', we are also eating 'information'
In a new study, Chen-Yu Zhang's group at Nanjing university present a rather striking finding that plant miRNAs could make into the host blood and tissues via the route of food-intake. Moreover, once inside the host, they can elicit functions by regulating host "target" genes and thus regulate host physiology.
MicroRNAs are a class of 19-24 nucleotide non-coding RNAs that do not code for proteins. MicroRNAs bind to target messenger RNAs to inhibit protein translation. In previous studies, the same group has demonstrated that stable microRNAs (miRNAs) in mammalian serum and plasma are actively secreted from tissues and cells and can serve as a novel class of biomarkers for disease and act as signaling molecules in intercellular communication.
Here, they report the surprising finding that exogenous plant miRNAs are present in the sera and tissues of various animals and that these exogenous plant miRNAs are primarily acquired orally, through food intake. MIR168a is abundant in rice and is one of the most highly enriched exogenous plant miRNAs in the sera of Chinese subjects. Functional studies in vitro and in vivo demonstrated that MIR168a could bind to the human/mouse low density lipoprotein receptor adapter protein 1 (LDLRAP1) mRNA, inhibit LDLRAP1 expression in liver, and consequently decrease LDL removal from mouse plasma. These findings demonstrate that exogenous plant miRNAs in food can regulate the expression of target genes in and thus physiology of mammals.
The finding is obviously very thought-provoking; for instance, it would indicate that in addition to eating "materials" (in the form of carbohydrates, proteins, etc), you are also eating "information" (as different miRNAs from distinct food sources could well bear different consequences on the regulation of host physiology once taken by the host due to potential regulation of different target genes as determined by the "information" contained within the miRNA sequence), thus providing a whole new dimension to "You are what you eat". Furthermore, the potential significances of this finding would be:
- has significantly expanded the functions of miRNAs;
- is an extremely intriguing and novel idea that has far-ranging implications for human health and metabolism;
- shed new light on our understanding of cross-domain (such as animal-plant) interactions, or perhaps even the 'co-evolution', and to open new ways of thinking about regulation of miRNAs, and about the potential roles of exogenous miRNAs such as those from food, plants and insects in prey-predator interactions;
- provides evidence that plant miRNAs maybe the seventh "nutrient" in the food (the six others are: H2O, protein, FFA, carbohydrate, vitamins and real elements);
- provides a novel mechanism of development of metabolic disorder.
- provides evidence that plant miRNAs may represent essential functional molecules in Chinese traditional herb medicine,
Importantly, these results have far-reaching implications, including the establishment of a powerful experimental methodology to deliver small RNAs to animals for in vivo gene silencing and miRNA gain-of-function studies. These findings also have major implications for the genetic engineering of plants using RNAi technologies and for the development of therapeutics that rely on small RNA delivery, since those interested in therapeutic applications of small RNAs inject doses of formulated or non-formulated RNAs that are up to 100mg/kg body weight – unimaginably higher – and have difficulty seeing an effect.

Once upon a time there was a prolific street artist who did a seemingly political mural in Copenhagen. Some upset locals paint bombed the mural with the statement, 'go home, yankee hipster.' The term 'yankee hipster' was so funny, sarcastic, ironic and cheeky to us that the name was adopted.
Welcome to Yankee Hipster. The goal is to create typographical signage that is witty, smart, ironic, humorous and sometimes inspiring (but only sometimes).
Yankee Hipster is a fan of straight-to-the-point statements of truth, humorous antidotes, ironic perceptions, and inspiring words.

Biotechnologists have been working hard to address the climate change and limited fossil resource issues through the development of sustainable processes for the production of chemicals, fuels and materials from renewable non-food biomass. One promising sustainable technology is the use of microbial cell factories for the efficient production of desired chemicals and materials. When microorganisms are isolated from nature, the performance in producing our desired product is rather poor. Metabolic engineering is performed to improve the metabolic and cellular characteristics to achieve enhanced production of desired product at high yield and productivity. Since the performance of microbial cell factory is very important in lowering the overall production cost of the bioprocess, many different strategies and tools have been developed for the metabolic engineering of microorganisms.
One of the big challenges in metabolic engineering is to find the best platform organism and to find those genes to be engineered so as to maximize the production efficiency of the desired chemical. Even Escherichia coli, the most widely utilized simple microorganism, has thousands of genes, the expression of which is highly regulated and interconnected to finely control cellular and metabolic activities. Thus, the complexity of cellular genetic interactions is beyond our intuition and thus it is very difficult to find effective target genes to engineer. Together with gene amplification strategy, gene knockout strategy has been an essential tool in metabolic engineering to redirect the pathway fluxes toward our desired product formation. However, experiment to engineer many genes can be rather difficult due to the time and effort required; for example, gene deletion experiment can take a few weeks depending on the microorganisms. Furthermore, as certain genes are essential or play important roles for the survival of a microorganism, gene knockout experiments cannot be p

I've been using the travel version of this for almost a year already.
I looove it :]. The travel version was only a dollar.
This does NOT sting my eyes whatsoever, I tried this one eyemakeup remover, and it stung my eyes really bad.
Even when I open my eyes, I feel no eye irritation.
It swipes my makeup like FAST. Seriously.
Love it, and I might buy a big bottle of this <3

This review is for the Target-brand knock-off the Neutrogena oil-free eye makeup remover. I used this at around the same time as the Loreal eye makeup remover. Comparing the two, the Target brand was, in my opinion, superior. 1) The Target brand didn't sting my eyes like the Loreal brand. It really sucks when you have to dread taking off eye makeup at night because it hurts and it makes you tear. Plus, taking off makeup supposed to keep you youthful. 2) The price for this Target knockoff is actually quite reasonable... esp. if you're in a rush and don't have time to check out coupons or weekly circulars. I haven't tried the real brand-name Neutrogena Oil-free eye make up remover yet. But so far, this product is pretty decent. I don't know how it compares to the actual brand-name Neutrogena though.

Based on the new reviews, it seems that Target has reformatted their eye makeup remover. Previously, it was in a bottle similar to L'oreal's eye makeup remover and quite good overall. Now, it looks like Neutrogena's eye makeup remover but it is too greasy! It feels so oily on my lid and doesn't even do the best job removing. I'll probably use up my bottle and then try to find another remover. I prefer DS ones since I'd rather save $$. I wish they hadn't changed the formula. Bad idea, Target!

Bought this due to hearing good things about it as well as the price. Very difficult in getting eye makeup off especially waterproof mascara when using this remover. I really have to soak my lashes and work the product in for a couple minutes. Also this stuff burns my lids like crazy. Won't buy again.

This works every bit as good as the brand name. I think it says it is as good as L'Oreal. Non-greasy, effective with use of a cotton ball or bad. Can't beat the price.

I don't understand the bad reviews either! I mean, granted it's not a miracle worker but it gets the job done. I've never had it sting or irritate my eyes either. It removes my eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara very well. I use a cotton ball and it's worked fine. For less than 4 bucks, you can't get much better than this.

I bought this because, usually, Target knockoffs are a pretty good deal. In this case, not so much. Perhaps it's good for sensitive eyes but to me, it wasn't strong enough to get all of my eye makeup off in a reasonable amount of rubbing. In order to get everything off, including liquid eyeliner, I had to scrub (and I know that couldn't have been good for my eye).

Wow, I am really surprised at the negative reviews on this product. I bought it one time on vacation to save money (just needed it to last a few more days) and ended up really liking it. It is very gentle and removes all my eye makeup-shadow, liner and lashes. I always hold the cotton pads over my lids for 10 seconds before swiping, so that could be why I have better luck with removal.
This DOES NOT sting my eyes, which a lot of brands do. I like this so much I just bought my 3rd bottle today.
UPDATE: not sure if it is my age now (31) and/or changing skin needs, but this stopped working well for me. maybe they reformulated? tried Bi-Facil again, it is so oily though, and got a sample of Chanel's bi-phase eye makeup remover so am happy with that now.

Prospect Milliner Sees a Fit With the Jets
While it is unclear whether or not Dee Milliner has been "smeared" in the last week about his injury history, Milliner told reporters at today's NFL Play 60 event that he was unconcerned with the rumors and that teams know he'll be ready to go for training camp.
What about any interest the Jets might have, now that they've traded Darrelle Revis? Jenny Vrentas writes for the Star-Ledger that Milliner has gotten nothing but a good vibe from the Jets.
"I talked to them when I visited up there. They like me," Milliner said today at the NFL's Play 60 Youth Football Festival with several of the NFL Draft's top prospects. "They probably like me more now since they got rid of Revis."
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.comTo me, Milliner is one of the most intriguing players in the top half of the first round. He was talked about going as high as No. 2 for a while, then he's been tightly linked with teams like Raiders and the Browns. Now he seems to be landing only has high as the Browns and never that far into the teens.
Milliner is the best cornerback in the class, but he might not have the ideal skillset for Rex Ryan's defense. He can play man, but needs to refine his technique in off-man coverage. While not the same size, a player like Desmond Trufant might be the best fit schematically for the Jets … a player they could theoretically reach for at 13, or more likely try to trade back to slot better. There's nothing wrong with Milliner, he's a talented player and the Jets are right to like him, I just wonder what the Jets might do if he falls into their lap … would another team be interested?

After missing the playoffs for the third time in the last five years, the Sabres' highest selling point relies on their new passionate owner Terry Pegula, who would love to add an offensive powerhouse to his lineup.
However, the News claims the Sabres are not willing to move left wing Tyler Ennis or many of their other young forwards, but could instead offer up some of their several defensemen, such as Andrej Sekera and Jordan Leopold or prospect Mark Pysyk.
According to the News, the Ducks would still demand one or two forwards in return for Ryan, who tallied 31 goals and 26 assists for 57 points in 82 games last season.

With the London Olympics under way, the United Kingdom and Martin Creed rung in the games with Work No. 1197: All the bells in a country rung as quickly and as loudly as possible for three minutes performed precisely at 8:12 am on July 27.
The Independent recently wrote an insightful profile of Creed, detailing his personal life, musical interests, and art, not all of which are easily separated.
On his inspiration to become an artist: "They [my parents] are Quakers and I grew up being taught that art and music were the highest things you could do."
On his motivation to make art: "Often I wake up with a horrible feeling, like a nightmare carried into the day. Trying to make something that someone else might like makes me feel better."

| Don't Come Here: Union employees at the downtown Hilton march outside their employer's building.
IMAGE: Eryn Slack
A union campaign urging a boycott of the Hilton Portland&Executive Tower hotel is starting to have some impact.
The union counts at least 275 Hilton workers as members of Portland-based UNITE HERE Local 9. And on Oct. 26, a majority of those Hilton workers voted to support a boycott of their downtown hotel employer after bargaining without reaching agreement on a new contract.
As one of just three union hotels in the entire state, the Portland Hilton has long been a favored spot for progressive political events—making about $1.5 million a year in union business, according to the hotel. But the Oregon AFL-CIO is backing the boycott. And politicians, unions and nonprofit groups have shelved plans to meet or stay there.
Planned Parenthood, the pro-choice group, moved a sold-out, 1,080-person Jan. 17 luncheon to the non-union Marriott, in accordance with union wishes. So did the ACLU Foundation of Oregon, which had a 450-person annual fundraising dinner scheduled March 8 at the Hilton.
"The ACLU has a long history of supporting the freedom of unions to demonstrate," said James Phelps, the ACLU Foundation of Oregon's development director.
No specific incident led workers to call their first-ever boycott, which doesn't preclude the possibility of a future strike.
The top issue, however, is housekeeper workload. UNITE HERE, a 460,000-member national union of hotel and textile workers, has been trying to link the trend toward luxury beds in hotels like the Hilton with a toll on housekeeper health.
On the Hilton's king-sized Serenity Beds, a housekeeper must lift at least part of a 113-pound mattress eight times while making a bed.
The union says all that lifting, plus having to rush to clean the required 16 rooms in an eight-hour shift, is a recipe for painful workplace injuries. Workers want the quota lowered to 15 rooms per shift; Portland Hilton management says the quota may be 16, but that the average works out to fewer than 15.
Under their current contract, which expired July 31, 2007, Portland Hilton housekeepers get $10.10 per hour. In San Francisco, for example, unionized hotel housekeepers have 14 rooms to clean per shift, and are now up to $17.50 an hour.
"[Management has] been real comfortable up there," says Mike Casey, president of UNITE HERE Local 2 in San Francisco, of the union's previous leadership at the Portland Hilton. "Some might even characterize it as a sweetheart relationship."
In the past, the Portland Hilton's union workers might not have put up a fight. Local 9 has long had little member involvement. Then, last February, the national leadership of UNITE HERE got rid of local leader Jeff Richardson and brought in seasoned organizers to mobilize members.
UNITE HERE's national leadership asked Casey, head of the San Francisco local, to oversee negotiations on the Portland Hilton contract.
"We haven't had any labor issues until this past contract, and the reason is that UNITE HERE on a national level determined that the local representative who was here for many many years was not aggressive enough," said Portland Hilton general manager Tracy Marks. "Now the people that we're working with are much more activist, and those are the people that are based in San Francisco.... We're willing to discuss workload, we're just really not being given an opportunity to do that. We haven't said no to anything. They've given us a proposal and we've given them a counterproposal."
Ten employees have signed up to become union stewards. One in 10 Portland Hilton workers joined a newly formed contract campaign committee, and union buttons began appearing on work uniforms.
"It's an incredible cause, workers' rights—all of us standing up," says Eryn Slack, a 33-year-old former server at the hotel's ground floor restaurant. Slack, who was employee of the month in November 2006, now works full-time coordinating the boycott as an employee of the union.
Bargaining sessions, which typically take place behind closed doors, have been opened up to Hilton workers. As many as 70 drop in to watch, and many leaflet periodically outside the hotel on their days off.
"We're not looking to bring the San Francisco…standard to Portland in one contract," Casey says. "But we are going to make progress, or we're not going to have labor peace.
FACT: The state's other two union hotels are also in downtown Portland: the Paramount and the Benson. The Portland Hilton is Oregon's largest hotel, with 782 rooms.

CHICAGO, April 20, 2010 – The recent economic downturn has American workers stressed, overworked and anxious, but many are turning to technology to help them cope. According to a survey released today by InterCall, the world's largest conferencing and collaboration services provider, workers are using technology to stay connected (sometimes even secretly), work harder and maintain job security to survive the economic recovery.
Take note managers: Nearly one in two Americans (48 percent) who use technology in their everyday jobs say that they are now required to do more work with fewer resources due to the current economic climate. As an example, nearly one third (30 percent) feel that they need to stay connected to work 24/7, even during weekends, breaks or holidays. However, 72 percent say that advanced technology, such as conferencing and collaboration tools, enables them to work faster, better and improves their morale – because they see the company providing them with the right resources and tools to 'do more with less.'
While the economic climate has even driven workers to use conferencing from locations they don't want their boss to know about, there is good news for stressed employees. Advanced technology makes it easy for most workers to feel connected anytime (80 percent) which is important considering almost one in four employees (24 percent) fear that if they don't stay connected to their work during their time off, they may be seen as less committed to their jobs.
"Despite the incredible pressure facing American workers, they value technology and the tools that keep them easily connected as an important resource to ease their anxiety about their job," said Kathleen Finato, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Product Management, InterCall. "Companies can really impact overall morale and enhance employees' job performance simply by providing their employees with the appropriate devices and services that will make them feel empowered."
The survey polled 2,500 knowledge workers in March about their attitudes and behaviors as they relate to technology in the workplace as well as new trends in the down economy. Additional findings from the survey include:
The U.S. survey was commissioned by InterCall, the world's largest conferencing and collaboration services provider. The survey was conducted by TNS, an independent research company in March 2010 with a margin of error of +/- 2.2 at the 95 percent confidence level for American workers who use technology in their everyday work (1,924).

Truth Plus Talks: On the Issue of Newness
March 6, 2012 § 2 Comments
"The responsibility is no longer just about making a nice piece," Elbaz said in a preview. " you have the responsibility, on one hand, to work on the vision, so you have to bring the newness, and it also has to have a zipper. How do you work with both?" (WWD, 3/5/12)
Following along with this season's Fashion's Month, I've been struck time and time again by seeing the term "newness" in reviews and reports.Yes, what's new and next is inherent to fashion; it's why we look to the runways and presentations to begin with. But when newness is forced or newness produces clothing that is difficult to wear for a large swathe of potential customers, what is the implication of pushing designers to create newness in the first place?
Personally, the runway clothes I find myself reacting most positively to are made of the finest and rarest fabrics on earth, in flattering silhouettes, and in exciting new colors. The newness comes from a difference in silhouette, a slight alteration to a style that's worked in the past and that can be refreshed now, and gorgeous craftsmanship or embellishment. In the past ten or fifteen years, designers have used technological innovations to fundamentally alter natural and synthetic fibers. In previous eras, during the textile R and D heyday of companies like DuPont, new fabrics were created to benefit the wearer, to make her warmer, slimmer, or to make garments easier for her to machine-wash. Now, the hyper-treated fabrics developed by designers are meant to mimic rubber, bondage and even parachutes. Cool, yes; helpful to the wearer, perhaps not.
This Paris Fashion Week, Bill Gaytten, who worked under John Galliano for many years, and has been at the helm of the house since Galliano was let go, was lambasted yet again for a show that did not present newness. Yet, his previous couture collection and this Fall 2012 were unquestionably lovely. Even, dare I say, wearable. Maybe he's not "taking the house forward" or showing us his "vision", but he is turning out fabulously beautiful, luxurious and expensive clothes that women who can afford them can actually consider buying. I've seen the images from the show appear on fashion and home design blogs since the clothes went down the runway, so I know that not everyone thought the collection was a total disaster. The clothes are true to Dior's ever-popular New Look and the the house's romantic personality. They are more practical than fanciful, and Dior's apparel sales are reportedly on the rise. Still, fashion cognescenti are prodding LVMH to replace him for someone more artistic or more forward-thinking. I'm not sure which makes more sense.

A fashion revolution? (Friedman, FT, 1/30/12) Vanessa Friedman and a few other sites have covered the launch of honestby.com, an e-commerce venture started by designer Bruno Pieters. Honestby is the most transparent e-biz to have launched in recent memory; it allows customers to see and understand the pricing and work that goes into each garment that the company produces. It's a radical idea, and one that could turn retail on its head if it works.
Tory Burch, taking the fashion world by storm (CBS Sunday Morning, 1/29/12) A short, but well-done interview with designer Tory Burch. It was interesting to hear that she envisioned an entire luxury brand before its launch, and has followed through with success on that concept.
Couture Report: The Day Before Dior (La Cava, NY Times, 1/23/12) This beautiful piece of insider journalism is exactly what Cathy Horyn was suggesting the fashion world needed more of. It's a behind-the-scenes look at how Dior's jawdroppingly gorgeous, John Galliano-less couture collection came to exist. Incredible photos.
It's In The Jeans (Phelps, Style.com, 1/23/12) I like the story of Carrie and Matt Eddmenson of denim brand Imogene and Willie. They started small, are growing carefully and revived local manufacturing.
Ad Campaign – Bates Disciplined Fabric, 1950 (The Vintage Traveler, 1/25/12) I'd never known that Bates College was named after a textile company. Here's a great background on The Bates Manufacturing Company.
Inside 3×1, Soho's Only Fully Transparent High-End Denim Factory (Grinspan, Racked, 1/25/12) I've been meaning to get down to this denim shop/factory. Like Honestby, it's meant to bring the consumer closer to the design and production process.
Joseph Brooks, Who Refined Lord & Taylor, Dies at 84 (Vitello, NY Times, 1/30/12) Joseph Brooks was a master merchant and marketing visionary who had great success at both Lord and Taylor and Ann Taylor.

Today's Truth Plus: Apple, Daisey, Greenville, Johnson's New Job
February 1, 2012 § Leave a comment
Again, I've managed to collect a long list of links in a short period of time, so for that reason, I'll post the manufacturing/business-related ones today, and the style-related links tomorrow. Since I last wrote anything op/ed-like here, we've all listened to the State of the Union and made it through a primary or two. Everyone is thinking about manufacturing, outsourcing, big business, small business, and entrepreneurship.
I myself have been thinking about President Obama's SOTU message about needing to 'get each other's backs'. In the midst of all these policy debates, it's our basic values that I wonder most about. Do we care about one another enough to employ fair labor practices domestically and abroad? To not destroy the environment? To remember the importance of education and innovation in America? To pause and stop thinking about our own finances and self-worth, and to start considering that of the greater good? There are many factors which have made us a self-centered, inward-thinking society, concerned with our creature comforts, but isn't now the time to reconsider that attitude? What will it take?
In China, Human Costs Are Built into an iPad (Duhigg and Barboza, NY Times, 1/25/12) I know many of you have probably read this piece, and the large number of similar articles about the manufacturing of Apple parts in China, specifically at a company called FoxConn. This piece unearths the extreme work hours, on-the-job dangers and environmental impact of producing the iPad. Apple execs quoted in the piece argue that they're doing everything they can to treat their outsourced laborers fairly. Will articles like this cause consumers to think about where their favorite products are made? Or is it out of sight, out of mind? The thing is, I don't think we can get away with complete ignorance forever.
Mr. Daisey and The Apple Factory (This American Life 1/6/12) If you haven't listened to this podcast, you must. Mike Daisey, a performer, and "self-described worshipper in the cult of Mac" actually heads to the Chinese city of Shehnzen to investigate the lives of workers at FoxConn. He risks his safety to interview employees about a recent outbreak of suicides at the factory. His re-telling, part of a one-man show being staged here in NYC, is chilling. What we can't see, Mike Daisey did, and it's not pretty. This American Life's host Ira Glass asks his audience if or how much they should care about where their favorite products are made. He also airs short interviews with the NY Times' Paul Krugman and Nicholas Kristof, both of whom argue that Chinese industrialization is ultimately good for their country and their citizens, and that eventually they will evolve into a service economy like ours in the U.S. But if they do indeed evolve, where will things be made? How can manufacturing jump from country to country, exploiting human lives, the environment and even consumers? At some point, we will run out of places willing to make things for nothing.
The Past and Future of American Manufacturing (Planet Money, 1/10/12) NPR is doing an incredible job with on-the-ground reporting about domestic and international manufacturing issues recently. As I've mentioned below, I'm a huge fan of Planet Money's Adam Davidson, who recently wrote a long piece in The Atlantic,Making It in America, and this podcast goes along with this piece. Davidson traveled to Greenville, SC, a former cotton/textiles hub, to find out about what life was like during the manufacturing boom, and during the current manufacturing draught. What he finds is that there is a surge in new manufacturing opportunities, and that these factories need a few low-skilled laborers, but place great value on highly-skilled, highly-trained workers. This training comes from specialized schooling and instruction, and he suggests government encourage more of this type of education in order to increase American manufacturing. But what I kept thinking about, after listening to this podcast, was a short interview with the owner of the company whose auto part factory Davidson visited. The owner is based out of company HQ in Long Island City of all places. His company is public. And while he claims to have a family business, to really care about his American workers, he is absolutely pessimistic about keeping or growing American manufacturing job opportunities. He says no tax credit or schooling opportunity will help, that he has to report to his shareholders, who care only for profit and not for people. I think Obama needs to talk to business-owners like this one, to find out what could reverse his thinking, and his shareholders' feelings.
The State of Our Disunion: A Globalizing Private Sector, A Government Overwhelmed by Corporate Money (Reich, 1/23/12) Robert Reich, always articulate and direct, mentions many of the same issues Davidson raises in his piece. But Reich goes on to say that not only are large, publicly-owned corporations maximizing profits by utilizing overseas' labor, but they are are influencing politics as fierce lobbyists and political contributors. Not easy to make change when this is the case.
Ron Johnson tries the Apple magic at JCP (Ken Segall's Observatory, 1/25/12) Everyone is watching to see if Ron Johnson, Apple's former head of stores, can polish a very dusty brand, J.C. Penney. He's made a lot of aggrandized and much-covered speeches and announcements about a change in pricing structure and a shop-in-shop concept (one of which is dedicated to Martha Stewart, and has gotten her in some legal hot water again). I'm going to sit back and watch what happens. J.C. Penney stores have long targeted Middle America, and if Johnson goes too slick, he may miss the mark. Buying cheap goods from vendors is a lot different than building a dream store around a perfect line of products.
My Second Day of Work in New York City
September 11, 2011 § 1 Comment
Today, I'm glad to see a few clouds in the sky. September 11th, 2001 was my third day living in New York City and my second day of work. After a summer of shuttling back and forth between Boston, where I lived with my parents post-college, and NYC, where I was hoping to work in the fashion industry, I'd scored a job working as an assistant to maternity designer Liz Lange and the company's Director of Marketing. My interview with Liz occurred only a week before I moved into my grandmother's empty attached house in Queens. She'd been moved up to Boston to be closer to my Dad and for health reasons. I remember that I had a brand new TV in that house that my dad had bought to watch the Yankees; he and my brother had stopped there on the way to Princeton, where my brother was about to start his freshman year, because my brother had come down with the flu on the ride down. In any case, the house was in Fresh Meadows, Queens, and required an hour-long Express bus ride and a 25-minute city bus ride to get to my new job. It was a long trek, but the house was a familiar, free and immediate place to stay and I was glad to have it.
On my second day of work, Liz Lange was slated to show at the Bryant Park tents at 9am for her first runway show. By now, many of you have probably read Eric Wilson's beautiful article about that show and that fashion week. I woke up very early to get to the tents; Liz had kindly invited me to come and watch even though it was only my second day. I was not well-versed in New York style at that point. I wore simple black trousers, a tee shirt and a jean jacket with a Swarovski pin in the shape of a Scottie on it. I was young and trying to look put-together.
When I got to the tents, I remember catching Liz's eye as she spoke excitedly to various reporters from ABC, CNN and other major networks. This was the first maternity fashion show ever, and it was Liz's day to shine. She had Mary Jo Fernandez and Lara Spencer walking in the show, celebrities in attendance, and every major magazine had RSVP'd. Her family was there with her to celebrate the big day. Liz's employees at the time invited me to come and grab a seat to watch the show. I chose to stand in the standing room, in order to give as many editors and reporters the chance to properly see the show. I couldn't believe my luck that I'd made it into the industry and into such a wonderful company.
Just as the final attendants took their seats, there started to be a buzz of whispers. I remember seeing one woman crying in the stands, and no one could understand why. I also remember the younger Lauder sister, Jane, coming in to the tent before everyone was seated, and exclaiming that the World Trade Center had been hit by a plane. At that time, everyone thought it was just an accident, and the show went on as planned. It was chic, dynamic, revolutionary and everything I think Liz had envisioned. But as the show ended, it became clear that something else beyond an accident had occurred. People began to run from the tent, and the news coverage shifted from a happy fashion show about creating life to a tragedy beyond our wildest imagination.
One of Liz's employees, Natalie, had a car with her at the tents and offered me and the manager of our Beverly Hills store a ride uptown. I was still fairly confused at that point, not even really knowing where the World Trade Center was in relation to where we were. I knew I had to get uptown though. We saw the news being broadcast on the side of the Fox News building, and then saw the smoke all the way down Sixth Avenue. The graveness of what was occurring began to sink in.
Natalie drove us to the Liz Lange offices where Janie, our Director of merchandising (whom I ran into on the street a few months ago) asked me immediately if I had somewhere safe to stay on the Upper East Side. I remembered that my friend Jodi lived with her mom not far from my new office. I found her home number and her housekeeper, who spoke Spanish and little English, answered the phone. Janie hopped on the phone for me and told the housekeeper in Spanish that I would be coming to the apartment.
I walked up and over the 15 blocks, was buzzed up by Jodi's housekeeper, and for awhile we watched the news together. The towers fell. I could not believe what I was seeing. I kept trying to call my mom, and my brother, and my friends, but couldn't get through to anyone, and knew they were worried about me, and I them.
Somehow, Jodi got through to her apartment and her housekeeper let her know that I was there. A few hours later Jodi and a band of my college friends and sorority sisters came through the door. I was so happy to see them. Only a few months after graduation, we were all still close and very used to caring for one another and spending our time together. Jodi's mom came home and we all sat together and watched the news as it came in. She'd walked all the way from her job in Brooklyn, or downtown, I can't really recall now. Everyone was pretty badly shaken. I finally got through to my family, and even my roommate who at the time was in Officer Training School. Liz and I emailed to make sure that the other was alright. I slept on Jodi's floor on an Aerobed that night and felt thankful that I was safe.
The next day, I put back on my outfit, and my jean jacket with the Scottie pin and walked down to the office. Many of my co-workers had come in. I think everyone felt like they needed purpose, something to do to keep moving. That night, I was able to get back to the house in Queens, and that weekend, went and visited my brother in Princeton. We rested, and walked, and by the time I had to go back into Manhattan, I felt a lot better.
It's funny; I look back at that time, and can't quite believe that I chose to stay in New York. I'm not sure I could do it again. The sadness, fear and loss of life on 9/11 were and still are more than I can really comprehend. But I did get my first glimpse of a city whose residents care for each other, who act as a community, and were tough enough to keep going. As we all remember that sunny morning, I hope we can remember to be decent to one another, to be protective of one another and to never forget what happened.

High-End Retailer Brings Production Back to U.S. (Bloomberg, 8/26/11) This interview has been posted a few places, and it's because it's a good one. Lonnie Kane is the CEO of Karen Kane, a womenswear design firm that's been in business in Los Angeles since 1979. The company shifted some of its Chinese production back to LA, which is an impressive feat in and of itself. Kane also speaks about trade and immigration laws that would start to bring back textile and manufacturing businesses to the U.S.
Front Row Fluff (The Emperor's Old Clothes, 8/24/11) I'm a personal fan of The Emperor's Old Clothes blog, and in fact, it encouraged me to start Truth Plus. I'm a bit more of a cut-and-dry writer and theorist, but I've always admired the author's passion about changes in the fashion industry. This post covers what he's expecting this coming Fashion Week, an event that's become more media focused than fashion focused it seems. Fluff is a former designer who worked for a long time on Seventh Avenue, and had his own firm, and he's got a very credible belief that more attention should be paid to the clothes that are presented and to the design techniques it takes to produce them than to the bloggers and other VIPs in the front row.
Does America Need Manufacturing? (Gertner, NY Times Magazine, 8/24/11) Using the backdrop of developments in the lithium-ion battery industry in the U.S., author Jon Gertner of Fast Company explores the question of whether or not the economy needs manufacturing to improve. There's no question among the experts that he speaks to that factory production on domestic ground would lead to an increase in jobs. But there is skepticism about whether or not we could reinstate manufacturing after so many years of outsourcing it. Are we just too behind? How will it be funded? How far should government go to support it? His conclusion is that the business model has to somehow change. We can't expect to move forward as a service industry, with companies like Facebook employing only 2000 people, if we want to create jobs. But we also can't build a manufacturing industry that is less competitive and more expensive than our overseas counterparts.
Stoll Grows an Oasis in Manhattan (Friedman, WWD, 8/30/11) One company that is taking a modern approach to apparel manufacturing is Stoll, a German-based knitting machine manufacturer. Stoll has set up a "sample making, knit apparel education and production training" facility in the Garment District in order to act as "a "connector" between designers and manufacturers looking to utilize and cultivate U.S. manufacturing." It's ideas like this that will make a change; Stoll is providing education and guidance that apparel companies are seeking, and also providing jobs to American factories, all while selling their machines. Everyone benefits.

Truth Plus is a term coined by my family. It's a form of honesty that's equal parts blunt, constructive and benevolent. It's our way of coaxing one another to face facts, to think through problems, to grow and improve.
Truth Plus in blog form is my chance to muse candidly about lifestyle businesses, the economy, media, technology, and occasionally social conventions. It's an extension of discussions with friends and family about how change happens and it's pros and cons. And although it's a step away from the light and lovely, I hope it will ultimately be thought-provoking and optimistic.
I'm starting small and slow, but all thoughts and questions are welcome. You can reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com anytime.
Here goes!

d.i.y. metallic notebook
Sep 18, 2012
When we came across these amazing metallic foil notebooks on Eat Sleep Cuddle we were beside ourselves. Bright color? Check. Geometric patterns? Check. Gold leaf accents? Double check.
Whitney herself told us, "Adding a little touch of gold to these notepads makes me want to write in them even more than I already do! You could also add gold to the cover of a notepad you are already using—just tape off a section and use either gold leaf or gold acrylic paint. So easy and so worth it!"

(May 02, 2008) The Government of Finland has recently drafted new legislation to more effectively combat money laundering and the terrorist activities financed by it, thereby bringing Finnish law more in line with a European Union directive on the subject. The Finnish bill extends a requirement to report suspected money laundering activities – already in place for banks, insurance companies, pawn shops, and real estate brokers – to companies that offer tax advisory and financial management services, distrainers, and bankruptcy ombudsmen. All merchants who accept more than €15,000 (about US$23,544) in cash payment from customers would also be subject to the reporting requirement. The Government plans to relax taxation confidentiality rules to allow tax officials, if necessary, to report on the financial transactions of persons suspected of money laundering.

Monroe, CT (PRWEB) April 27, 2013
Dr. Richard Amato is a Connecticut periodontist who is trained and certified in using Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP) for the treatment of gum or periodontal disease. This treatment protocol utilizes specially designed lasers that have been cleared for use by the FDA. Only a very small percentage of dentists in the United States has the training to apply this advancement method for gum disease treatment.
There are millions of adults suffering from gum disease in this country. Many have not sought treatment for various reasons, the most common reason being a fear of the traditional treatment methods that use scalpels and sutures. With LANAP eradication of the disease can occur with less bleeding, pain or discomfort, as well as a shorter down time for patients. Patients who allow gum disease to progress without treatment will usually have major dental issues that could lead to loss of teeth. Additionally, these patients are more likely to be diagnosed with debilitating illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, coronary artery disease and diabetes, according to scientific studies.
Understanding the procedure may help some patients decide it is time to seek treatment. With LANAP the periodontist examines the patient to determine whether he or she is a good candidate for the procedure. The periodontal pockets are then measured, and the PerioLase MVP-7 laser is activated to remove bacteria and the gum tissue that has become diseased. The remaining tissue and the bone are not harmed by the FDA cleared laser. In fact, the bone is stimulated by the laser to regenerate which can help to strengthen the jaw. No scalpel is needed bec

"This guy (Thomas Dambo) was actually a rapper in a group called "Odense Assholes". It was a sort of satire group, if that makes sense. They generally wrote songs that were very hateful towards women, gays, the police etc. taking the piss on "real" rappers. They kept going and eventually they had a huge group of fans and not all of these fans could see the sarcasm or understand the underlying message. Their final gig they ended up making out with each other on the scene to shock the audience and let everyone know that it was an act all along. Quite interesting. There was a documentary film made about it all.
I don't know if I had a point with this, but now you know. Anyways, Thomas Dambo seems like a great guy.

Weekend Program
Registration is now LIVE!
Sign up by October 13th for a $75 earlybird discount!
The foreign language curriculum is designed to provide students with progressive skills in French or Spanish. In this department, we cover a broad range of language concepts including grammar, vocabulary and culture. Concepts are practiced through varied reading, listening, speaking, and writing activities. Students demonstrate comprehension through class discussion, projects, compositions, workbook assignments, presentations, quizzes and tests. Each curriculum is interactive and varied, with class time focusing on a diverse collection of activities to practice and master fundamental knowledge while continually advancing to higher levels of skill in the language.
Beginning in the first levels, we emphasize mastery and proficiency of basic concepts through repetition of fundamental skills. Students are challenged to develop comfort with fundamental language skills to then move toward building a more advanced comprehension. Over the course of four (or five) years this department endeavors to cultivate students' proficiency and comfort with the language through consistent review and progressively challenging skills. Low student-faculty ratios in class allow faculty to engage students in learning suited toward each style of learning through reading, writing, conversing, and varied projects.
This department places high priority on enriching the knowledge of cultural by exposing students to a variety of authentic materials from the specific language-speaking countries. In combination with language study, students gain awareness of their own as well as foreign cultures through varied activities including research, videos, presentations, readings, etc. Each cultural activity is aimed at providing students with context for their learning as well as exposure to different civilizations, customs, lifestyles and ideas. Students are encouraged to compare and contrast different cultural concepts to each other as well as their own.
In this department, students synthesize language concepts through project and other interactive aspects of class. Throughout and upon completion of each unit, students are required to use concepts in a variety of individual as well as group exercises and presentations. Students practice use of concepts in real-life situations, as well as practicing speaking, listening and reading skills.
Using various technological approaches, we strive to provide students with current and accessible means of learning through online and other technology. Students interact in class as well as while traveling through online activities, blogging, homework, research, presentations and specific use of language dictionaries. Technology is also used to enhance classroom learning as well as provide student access to resources and notes through computer programs such as Keynote, Noteshare, etc.
Upon graduation from Carrabassett Valley Academy, students are proficient in reading, writing, and speaking, their language(s). Students obtain comfort and skills of learning a language with in-class teaching as well as gain skills to continue study and learning on their own. Students are prepared to continue further study of language, exposure to culture and greater understanding of their own language through their studies of foreign language.

Does Symantec Network Access Control 12.1 is part of SEPM licensing ?
Hi All,
Does the Symantec Network Access Control 12.1 is also part of the SEPM 12.1 ?
meaning that it is already included in the licensing as part of the SEPM package ?
Comments 7 Comments • Jump to latest comment
no, the agent module is same . SEP client have NAC, however to enable it you should SNAC license to activate on SEPM
may be this link is helpful
You Need SNAC license for activation in SEPM.
Installation and Administration Documents for Symantec Network Access Control 12.1
Hm... I got the email from the email@example.com on 9 July 2012 which said:
Symantec Protection Suite Enterprise Edition 4.0 includes:
- New: Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 (Windows and Mac)**
- Symantec Mail Security for Domino 8.0 Windows Edition
- New: Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange 6.5 with Premium Anti-spam
- New: Symantec Messaging Gateway 9.5 (formerly Brightmail Gateway)
- New: Symantec Web Gateway 5.0
- New: Symantec Network Access Control 12.1
- New: Symantec System Recovery 2011 Desktop Edition (formerly Backup Exec System Recovery)
- New: Symantec Workflow 7.1
- IT Analytics Solution for Symantec Endpoint Protection Pack 7.1
- Symantec Installation Manager 7.1
which means as per the above email I can doenload it from Fileconnect and then use it as part of the licensing :-)

:-), I believe so...Can you check if you have SNAC license already in place?
SEP and SNAC are licensed separately, and you need a license for SNAC in order to enable that functionality on a SEPM.
What your upgrade notification refers to, is the Symantec Protection Suite, which include licenses for SEP, SNAC (self-enforcement), Web Gateway and a whole load of other products as you can see (everything in that list in fact).
Either via https://licensing.symantec.com or in the license pdf Symantec provide, you should be able to find a separate serial number and slf file for SNAC. This needs to be applied to your SEPM to enable the SNAC functionality.
I often see companies purchase the Suite as it's a better deal, but then only go on to implement SEP and forget about the rest of the products. I'd highly recommend reading up on all of the products you are seemingly licensed for, to see if these can contribute to the security of your environment.
As you've got the licenses, why not use them?

Greg Griffin of Florida-Georgia Grove LLP and Doug Hendley, chief of security for Collier County, stand outside a locked fence to the Ted Smallwood's Store on Friday. Griffin's compnany tore up the street leading to the property and put up the locked fence as access to the store was through the company's property. The action was taken to force approval of a permit request to develop a marina river basin on the property. The company had learned that a permit request recommendation by the Army Corps of Engineers was to deny the permit because access to the store would become a problem. The permit sought another access on Smallwood property.
Gary McMillin of Ted Smallwood's Store and Greg Griffin of Florida-Georgia Grove LLP, still shared a smile on Friday, even though they are on opposite sides of a permit issue that has cut off the main access to the Smallwood Store.
Lynn McMillin, granddaughter of the founder of Ted Smallwood's Store, talks of her shock when she found the chain-linked fence closing Mamie Street as the access to the store in Chokoloskee.
The blacktop rubble is all that is left of Mamie Street, the entry way to the historic Smallwood Store in Chokoloskee. When the developer, Florida-Georgia Grove LLP, learned that a requested permit for an alternate entrance to the store was going to be turned down, the developer went ahead and tore up Mamie Street, which was on its property, trying to now force the Corps to accept the alternate entry way that would not be on the company's property, nor slow construction of a new marina basin.
Ted Smallwood's Store, established in 1906, serves as a time capsule of Florida pioneer history in Chokoloskee..
"Is this it?," was Collier County Commissioner Jim Coletta's response when he was shown the only access to the historical Smallwood Store in Chokoloskee on Friday. Coletta went down from Naples to investigate why there was no longer a street accessing the store. He also looked in wonderment as to how long it would take to get a proper road access in as the original, Mamie Street, was destroyed by the owner of the property where the access had been for more than 70 years. The owner destroyed the road way to force the U.S. Army Corps of engineers to accept the dirt road as a new aqcess point so that the company could be allowed to put in a new marina basin. The owner said the company will pay to have the new street put in for the Smallwood Store.
Smallwood's Store opened in 1906. The store was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

London, UK (PRWEB) September 12, 2013
Recently, cancer treatment has witnessed considerable breakthroughs in terms of the development of innovative drug products. The success in clinical research in this therapeutic area and growth in investments are attributed to positive clinical data and regulatory approvals, expanding partnerships and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity.
Some companies that have already scored a success in the development of novel technology platforms and drugs to treat relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), are expected to follow a similar scenario to unfold in the treatment of recurrent/refractory MDS (RR-MDS, High-Risk MDS) and AML (relapsed/ refractory AML, R/R AML).
Insightful research report "Treating Refractory Hematological Malignancies – Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Emerging Therapeutics" worked out by MP Advisors has been recently published by Market Publishers Ltd.

Preparing for a data disaster is one of those projects that are always getting pushed back in small and medium sized businesses. The daily proverbial "fires" seem to take precedence over getting ready for an actual fire, server crash, earthquake, theft, or hurricane.
Implementing a data disaster recovery strategy is critical, but is often delayed for 2 reasons:
• The complexity of evaluating business operations to find the critical data that needs to be made available first after a disaster, then calculating the target RPO and RTO for that data.
• The perception that a disaster recovery solution that meets targets is too expensive
As Storage Switzerland noted recently, tapes are holding their position as an affordable backup solution that can also be used for disaster recovery. So, if you are using tape for backup here's how to set up for recovery after a data disaster:
1. Optimize Tape Rotation For Recovery
Consider keeping Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday tapes with full overnight backups of everything and taking them off site each day. These are the tapes you'd restore in a disaster recovery scenario.
Then, depending on the needs of your business, have another set, for example each Friday of the month. They can stay onsite in a fireproof safe, for recovering an accidentally deleted folder, for example. Most safes aren't melt proof, so after a certain amount of time the tapes will still be vulnerable, so remember to consider the level of heat protection being offered when you're shopping for a safe.
Then, for archival purposes, make 6 (or 3 or 9) monthly tapes, that can stay in the same fireproof safe. Finally, once a year, run a backup and take it to a bank safety deposit box.
2. Consider The Recovery Environment
This is the part that's hard to generalize about. Depending on your geography and environment, think through the factors that will limit your recovery capabilities after a disaster.
Are you in a tornado prone area? It may take days to receive a new server after a storm damages road and communication infrastructure in the area. In this case, an extra auto-loader and server could be kept offsite with the daily backup tapes. The offsite storage location might also be where you'd personally go during an evacuation, for example.
In a fire or theft scenario, new hardware can be overnighted, but that still puts company data at a 24-36 hour recovery window. This may be a manageable risk or totally unacceptable, depending on the nature of the business.
As the title of this post suggests, using tape backups for disaster recovery can be pretty complex, but are a good way to leverage existing equipment to get a DR strategy in place.
Of course, with Zetta's DR-as-a-Service protecting data offsite can be done over the web in a matter of minutes, with no-touch daily backups and instant recovery. Tapes will work fine, it's just that Zetta works better.

BeachPallarenda Beach and Rowes Bay are essentially one long beach cut in the middle by Three Mile Creek. Both beaches are backed by a 1 to 2 km wide, low, coastal plain. Pallarenda Beach (859) is 2.5 km long, faces east and receives low waves usually less than 0.3 m. These maintain a low, 50 m wide high tide beach fronted by 100 to 200 m wide intertidal sand flats. The northern end of the beach lies in the Environmental Park and has a number of facilities and picnic areas. Just south of the park entrance is a concrete boat ramp and a swimming enclosure, backed by the small Pallarenda residential settlement. The Cape Pallarenda Road runs right behind the beach, providing good access for the entire length, with a grassy foreshore reserve between the road and the beach.
SwimmingThe best spot is at Pallarenda, with the added safety of the stinger net during summer. All beaches can only be used at mid to high tide owing to the low tide flats.
SurfingUsually none.
FishingBest at high tide near the creek mouths.
