As chairman emeritus of MFS Investment Management, Robert Pozen used his bully pulpit to argue for Social Security reform and the protection of Americans' retirement assets. Since stepping down from that role, Pozen remains as a consultant to MFS while relying on his reputation in the retirement industry to champion auto-enrollment and criticize target-date funds.
"I'm for automatic enrollment because it gets people into a retirement program, but I'm not in favor of lifestyle funds," says Pozen in an interview with Investment Advisor after getting tapped for the IA 25 for the second year in a row. "These funds do a lot of things that are problematic. Most people don't understand them and think that they're being effectively guaranteed not to lose money in the last 10 years of their life, which is clearly untrue."
Indeed, many people credit the 65-year-old Harvard Business School senior lecturer and Brookings Institution senior research fellow with having become the successor to Vanguard founder John Bogle as the conscience of the industry.
Pozen takes the Bogle comparison as a "big compliment," and then adds with his characteristically dry sense of humor, "I don't know exactly what the conscience of the industry means, but if Jack Bogle is the conscience of the industry, then it's a good thing. I do try to call them as I see them."
There's no question that how he sees them takes a bipartisan edge for this registered Democrat. Pozen, a member of former-President Bush's Commission to Strengthen Social Security in 2001 and 2002, developed two models for closing the Social Security system's long-term deficit, which Bush endorsed. The plan then was passed on to President Obama in a series of memos from the Progressive Policy Institute.
In 2003, Pozen served as secretary of economic affairs for Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and helped the governor close the state's $3 billion budget gap. He later talked to Democratic party insiders about challenging Republican Sen. Scott Brown for his Senate seat, according to the Boston Herald in December 2010, but Pozen says he's not running for office. (One of his biggest projects at present is writing a book, "Extreme Productivity: Boost Your Results, Reduce Your Hours," which Pozen hopes will be a bestseller.)
But given his past relationship with the former governor of Massachusetts, Pozen would consider taking a position in a potential Romney administration.
"Of course, I would consider if any president asked me to do anything," Pozen says. "But I'm a moderate Democrat, not a Republican. While in Massachusetts, Mitt viewed it as a positive to choose someone who was a moderate Democrat, but I'm not sure he would have the same view nationally. And given the strong feelings between the two parties, I'm not sure it's so easy to be bipartisan in Washington."
Today, says Pozen, the single most pressing issue for the United States "is the fact that the country has a budget cliff, and we will fall off at the end of this year if Congress does nothing." Although the Bush tax cuts are set to expire and the United States could suffer a 3% reduction in GDP if lawmakers take no action, Congress has not responded to the supercommittee, Pozen warns.
"I'm all for disciplined fiscal policy, but we need that over time. We don't need a fiscal shock," he says. "It would be nice to think that Congress wouldn't take $1 trillion out of the economy in 2013. I'm working with some people trying to come up with a bipartisan solution that would last beyond just a couple of months, but rather cut $4 trillion to $5 trillion over 10 years."

I want to download a car!
You wouldn't, though.
Actually I was thinking about that recently when I got my first car. It's old, over 30 years. It's getting to the point where even scrapyards don't have the parts anymore.
A lot of the parts that have broken on it are little ABS plastic thingies, things like plastic mounts for switches, little cogs for opening the heater vents, knobs, etc...
All this is well within the range of the current generation of 3D printers (and I'm sure things will get better on the printer front).
Wouldn't it be nice if there was
Those "You wouldn't download a car, would you?" warnings on the beginning of DVD's are going to be funny when people actually are downloading cars...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-sale_doctrine [wikipedia.org]
"The first-sale doctrine is a limitation on copyright that was recognized by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1908 (see Bobbs-Merrill Co. v. Straus) and subsequently codified in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C. 109. The doctrine allows the purchaser to transfer (i.e., sell, lend or give away) a particular lawfully made copy
First off, what is your credit card processing fee? There is a reason Apple isn't laughing all of the way to the bank with iTunes but the credit companies ARE laughing their ass off. It all depends on your size and your risks (chargebacks) but gosh darn, you might be suprised that your 25 cent fee ends up mostly at the credit card company. That is nobody does a charge back and you have to pay anywhere up from ten bucks for it. With your 25 cents, 1 chargeback costs you 40 paying customers, well it would IF you could use all their quarters to pay for the 1 chargeback, which you can't because other things will have to payed from it as I already stated.
Further more, you say the movie costs 20 bucks, even if rentals worked like that, which they don't, you need 80 paying customers (IF you could keep the entire quarter) just to break even. Meanwhile, your entire legal case rests on the fact that there is only ONE copy around for each possesion, so if 80 customers want the same movie at the same time, you need 80 x 20 bucks to satisfy demand. Now you need a total of 640 paying customers... IF you could keep the entire quarter which once again, you cannot.
I keep hammering on this because a lot of noobs to business think that money is free. You sell something and everything the customer pays, ends up in your pocket. Transaction costs HURT many a small business and is the reason you can't buy a nickle item with a credit card.
The most annoying thing is that this doesn't have to be the case, in the EU payments systems are far far cheaper per transaction, on the order of cents rather then quarters and are even free. Whenever I have to implement a CC solution because people in the EU thinks it will mean the world I find it very amusing to show them the fee structures. It is like telling a baby how their candy will be taken.
Oh, and those transaction costs, you have them DOUBLE. Two transactions... all to be payed out of 1 quarter dollar along with all your other costs.
You should put this in a business case and present it at your bank. They need a good laugh.
Please, don't be such a pompous head just because you know about credit card transaction fees. The poor schmuck has a good idea, and he's trying to think outside of the box. Just because you're used to a world that works in a certain fixed way doesn't mean that's the only way the world can work.
I have paid 25 cents with a credit card before. I pay with credit card all the time and I don't like carrying loose change with me. If something costs 25 cents + tax, that means you'll be getting back about two qua
Because http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_card#Costs_to_merchants [wikipedia.org] means the merchant owes the card company at least $0.40 (1% of two $20 transactions) and more likely $1.20. Add postage, packing and the cost of paying employees to unpack and refile the discs and record which customer has returned them and you're probably looking at $5 per cycle before you break even.
Frankly I'm amazed netflix et al are profitable at the prices they charge.
because they wouldn't make enough
money to make it worth it. Redbox is about at the floor of cost at
$1/day. Even with all the automation you have to pay people to stock
the machines, you get damaged disks from wear and tear, no one rental
caused the issue so you can't charge it back to the last renter. You
have to pay the cost of the machines, and the maintenance on them.
Honestly I'm surprised that Redbox is profitable at $1/day. All it takes is someone damaging your machine and you're back in the hole
I don't own a 3D printer, so I think the first item i'd download is one of them!
And you'll get a cupful of liquid that is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
I'll let you in on a little secret: "Earl Grey tea" is not some Sci-Fi invention but something you can buy in any supermarket right now!
Copyright and trademark infringement are common and this sort of thing has been a source of controversy for a while now.
But the next big blowup will be over things that are illegal in themselves just by their shape and arrangement of parts. I'm talking about things like weapons, drug paraphernalia, and pathogens. It's likely we'll see a crackdown or at least a panic resulting in calls for licensure of many of the most useful creation tools ever designed.
Take the humble AK-47 rifle, for example. It's designed for ease of manufacture, making it a likely target for replication. This makes enforcing highly restrictive gun laws very difficult in a world full of machines that can build them from simple raw materials.
Look the AK-47 has been made in countries that can barely keep a car running. You don't need a 3D printer. Just a basic metal shop.
3D printing is not the answer to most of the questions you guys are posing.
Do any of these low-cost 3D printers improve substantially on the 1.3mm resolution and 25/kg material costs that I've seen? If not the toy industry has nothing to worry about (yet).
Why do you want to hurt horses?
I mean, why not start with, say, a basic template for that sort of figure, and add in your own detail with a 3d modelling program, and create an original figure that you can then "print" out and utilize? I mean, what on earth makes having a duplicate of that particular figure so worthwhile that one should be inclined to even *want* to copy it?
I know if I had that sort of tech at home, I'd be making all kinds of customization to figures, rather than wanting to duplicate something that somebody else has done. And while granted, not everybody has the time or the inclination to want to do that sort of thing, I still find myself at a loss to understand why a person would rather copy something commercial than something somebody else might have made for free. Especially considering that home 3d printers generally can't actually do the kinds of fine detail that typically goes into metal figures of that size.
You are not dead yet. But watch for further reports.

We had a cool day at the end of August that turned my focus to fall. I began to dream of sitting under a soft warm afghan with hot beverages in my hand.
Last year, with a few bucks in my pocket, I made an impromptu stop at the craft store. This is almost always the perfect storm for random purchasing of yarn. I came home with an (overflowing) armful of jewel-tone colored yarn, and a pound of stark white. And it sat on a shelf, for over a year, just waiting for inspiration to strike.
Sometimes, when I'm avoiding the laundry, or really any calling of the domestic life, I browse the inter webs for crochet inspiration.
It happened on that late August day, when the scent of fall came subtly on the wind. I found the recipe for my not-forgotten yarn: Purl Soho's Bear Rainbow Blanket.
The squares stitched up easily, though I did slightly change the corner stitches on the outside border of each square.
When I had the color part of the squares done, I didn't like the stark white, so I marched back to the store for something soothing and soft. I found a creme color that fit the bill.
This weekend I wasn't feeling well, still battling a chest cold I've battled for over a month. But my art classes were finished, and it was a good weekend to shut things down and sit a spell. So I rested and stitched putting squares together; tucking in yarn tails while the cold November air settled outside. In total it took eight weeks to complete, but she is finished just in time.
She might be my favorite afghan so far.

Cate Blanchett talks Woody Allen's 'Blue Jasmine' (interview)
Woody Allen has dropped a lot of unhinged, dithering and raging women into his films, but Cate Blanchett may play the epitome of them all in his latest movie, "Blue Jasmine."
The title character is the wife of a crooked New York financier (Alec Baldwin) who, following his imprisonment and her own nervous breakdown, struggles to restart her life in San Francisco, where Jasmine's decidedly downscale sister Ginger (Sally Hawkins) takes her in.
It was the acclaimed Australian actress' first time working with Allen, who's equally famous for writing great female parts, having his choice of the best actors in the business and, well, not saying much to them once the cameras start rolling.
"What was I expecting?" Blanchett asks rhetorically over a phone link from Australia, where she and husband Andrew Upton run the Sydney Theatre Company. "Though I wasn't expecting a lot of dialogue with Woody, I guess maybe I'm just a person who asks a lot of questions. I don't know how to make things other than to make them in conversation with the other actors and the director. So I found him really forthcoming, actually. And you always knew when he didn't like something."
Blanchett's movie work has included playing Queen Elizabeth I twice, winning an Oscar for her portrayal of Katharine Hepburn in Martin Scorsese's "The Aviator," and making everything from serious art films such as Todd Haynes' "I'm Not There" to high-toned dramas like "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," as well as blockbusters like Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" and "Hobbit" movies and Steven Spielberg's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."
"You wouldn't necessarily get a chance to do it again, but he likes things to be buoyant. I think that's why his films, even when they're about potentially heavy subjects like divorce and betrayal and terminal disease and financial ruin, there's always a buoyancy to them; even murder," she says.
"Blue Jasmine" doesn't go quite that far. But Jasmine is broke, drinks too much, tends to look down her nose at anyone who isn't a member of her former class, mentally jumps back and forth in time, talks too much, talks to herself out loud, lies like crazy and sometimes drifts off into a fantasy world only she believes is real.
She's also got what you might call an abrasive personality. However, although "Blue Jasmine" is essentially one of Allen's serious films, Blanchett plays her role with such self-absorbed intensity that the character is often unintentionally hilarious.
We're pretty sure Blanchett intended that.
"It's situational, isn't it?" she reckons. "The tricky thing is knowing which way to turn because tonally, you think, this is both absurd and tragic; which way is each scene going to fall? So the playing of it is kind of strange and delicate.
"The pleasurable thing for me to play was Jasmine being such an unreliable narrator. She believes like all great fantasistsï »¿ and all good liars in what she's saying in the moment. It's not until after it's come out of her mouth that, then, she has to see it through, and that's where the panic is."
One thing Blanchett definitely thinks is funny is the general media impression that "Blue Jasmine" is Allen's version of Tennessee Williams. As someone who's played Blanche DuBois in hit stage versions of "A Streetcar Named Desire," the actress acknowledges certain surface similarities between the two stories, but points out that their sensibilities are worlds apart.
"We never directly discussed that," Blanchett says. "If there's any reference point for the character, a woman of once-great fortune now faded arrives at her sister of an entirely different class to ask for her help, and the sister is partnered to a man of the more animal variety than she is used to -- well, OK, the setup is very similar. But the way it evolved, you can't possibly hope to put Blanche DuBois in a Woody Allen film.
"You could say that Tennessee Williams in 'Streetcar' describes the moment of the death of poetry in America. In the Woody Allen universe, does poetry even exist? What is the value of poetry? It's definitely more sort of existential angst. To have tried to play Blanche in that environment would have been a bit of creative suicide, I think."
How about Ruth Madoff? Allen has denied that the Bernie Madoff scandal was in any way an inspiration for "Blue Jasmine." Blanchett admits that, well, maybe a little.
"Look, there's a whole other picture to be made in the epic betrayal that constituted Bernie Madoff's downfall," she says. "But I think, like every other person on the planet, I followed the story. It's just in the ether, and it's in the back of your mind, but it's not something that you consciously draw from. I'm not playing Ruth Madoff, but there are a lot of those women who've found themselves working in the proverbial shoe store, who have fallen from grace, been estranged from their friends and their social circle, and set adrift because of their husbands' shocking deeds."
Blanchett's full-blast performance in "Blue Jasmine" constitutes a return to cinema after a few years focused on stage work and raising her three sons. She'll be seen in George Clooney's World War II art rescue drama "The Monuments Men" later this year and isn't sure if her Elf Queen Galadriel made the cut for the second "Hobbit" movie or will appear in next year's third one. She's equally at sea about what she'll be doing on screen, if anything, once notoriously indecisive director Terrence Malick finishes cutting the two upcoming features she shot with him.
A part in Disney's live-action "Cinderella," directed by Kenneth Branagh, is on her schedule, as is a reteaming with Haynes.
"I hate it, hate it," Blanchett says with a laugh about movie work. "I'm dragged kicking and screaming every time, but I must like it because I keep doing it."

Blair Jones
Craik Saskatchewan
Eligible for draft:
Trade with Tampa Bay, 2012
215 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2003-04: Blair Jones played in his first full season with Red Deer in the WHL after appearing in 37 games with the Rebels in 2002-03. He scored 9 goals with 22 assists and was -12 with 55 PIM. Jones scored four goals on the power play. In the playoffs, he scored 1 goal with 5 assists and was -2 with 24 PIM in 19 games as the Rebels reached the Eastern Conference finals against Medicine Hat.
2004-05: Jones was involved in an early season trade from Red Deer to Moose Jaw. Prior to the trade, he was an important part of the team's offense with Dion Phaneuf sidelined by an injury. He anchored the power play and played alongside Colin Fraser and Roman Wick on the top forward unit. In 39 games with the Rebels, he scored 7 goals with 18 assists and was +9 with 48 PIM. He had the exact same offensive totals (7 goals, 18 assists) with Moose Jaw in ten fewer games though his plus/minus dipped a bit with the middling Warriors. Jones finished the season with 14 goals, 36 assists and +10 with 78 PIM in 68 games between the two teams. In five games in the WHL playoffs, Jones led Moose Jaw in scoring with 2 goals with 5 assists and was -1 with 8 PIM as the Warriors fell to eventual Eastern Conference playoff champion Brandon.
2005-06: Jones had a breakout season in his first full season with Moose Jaw as the Warriors captured the Eastern division regular season title and advanced to the WHL finals against Vancouver. Jones scored 35 goals (14 on the power play) with 50 assists and was +26 with 85 PIM in 72 games for the Warriors during the regular season. In the playoffs, he was one of the top scorers for Moose Jaw, scoring 9 goals with 12 assists and was +9 with 45 PIM.
2006-07: Jones made his NHL debut in November in a game against Buffalo and split the season between the Lightning and their AHL affiliate Springfield. Jones scored his first NHL goal in a 3-2 shootout win over Los Angeles in February and finished with 1 goal 2 assists and 2 PIM with an even plus/minus in mostly checking line duty in 20 games with Tampa Bay. In 45 games with Springfield, he scored 5 goals with 16 assists and was -15 with 36 PIM on a Falcons team that was last in the Atlantic Division.
2007-08: Jones spent the bulk of his second pro season with the Lightning's new AHL affiliate in Norfolk. In a brief four-game call-up in December, he averaged less than two minutes of ice-time with the Lightning. As the top-line center with the Admirals, Jones saw plenty of ice time and scored 14 goals with 28 assists in 78 games and was -22 with 50 PIM on another last-placed AHL club.
2008-09: Jones spent all of his third pro season with Norfolk and was the second-leading scorer on a slightly-improved Admirals club that missed the playoffs. Jones scored 20 goals with 34 assists and was -13 with 54 PIM in 80 games. Jones scored 8 of his 20 goals on the power play.
2009-10: Jones saw consistent ice-time with the Lightning during a 14-game, mid-season call-up and had a much-improved plus/minus rating in 63 AHL games with Norfolk. With Tampa Bay, Jones was mostly in a checking role and had no points with 10 PIM and a -5 plus/minus. In 63 games with the Admirals, he scored 9 goals with 20 assists and was even plus/minus with 27 PIM. Jones was signed to a two-way contract by the Lightning in July.
Talent Analysis
Jones has added bulk to his frame since his days of junior hockey and has the strength to be a power forward at the NHL level but he doesn't play a particularly physical game. He has a powerful shot and decent skills but has not been the consistent scorer at the pro level that he was in junior hockey. In fairness to him, he has never played on a playoff-calibre team. Jones has been a consistent, if non-descript forward for the Lightning organization at the AHL level.

In what must surely be a bit of good news for super-luxury Manhattan real estate–but, then again, must also be a bit of bad news–Hugh Jackman has closed on the Hudson River triplex that The Observer wrote about last month. It's a reason for jittery brokers to sigh, considering that two sources said last month it was "possible" the actor would walk away from his deal.
He didn't walk away, but one of those sources said the final sales price was between $20 and $23 million–lower than the $25 million-plus he was reportedly going to be paying. Maybe Mr. Jackman is a good haggler? Or maybe it's that every super-expensive apartment in New York is going to be open to negotiation for the foreseeable future.
Mr. Jackman's seller, the Sun Microsystems co-founder Bill Joy, paid $17.57 million for the raw space in 2002. Considering that Mr. Joy probably spent millions to fix up the 11,032-square-foot triplex, it's likely he has lost money on the deal–not that Sun co-founders worry about that kind of thing.
Meanwhile, the Australian actor happens to be in town today, so maybe he'll be seeing his new 51-foot-wide living room, 51-foot-wide rec room, 51-foot-wide master bedroom, a 54.5-foot-long dining room/gallery, or the slightly smaller music room, library, wet bar and exercise room.

When you first saw Christian Siriano on the fourth season of "Project Runway," you probably didn't care much for him. The skinny guy from Baltimore had a crazy Flock of Seagulls hairdo and an arrogant attitude that grated on everyone.
However, by the end of the season, his talent and his personality became the show's best ever -- he was the first (and so far only) person to win both the competition and fan favorite. Nearly two years since the premiere of that season, Siriano has staged three critically acclaimed shows during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York and has launched partnerships with major brands.
This weekend, he'll be in the Twin Cities to sign copies of his new book, "Fierce Style: How to Be Your Most Fabulous Self." We caught up with Siriano in a New York cab going from the CBS' "Early Show" to his downtown studio.
Q Aveda did the hair for your fashion show.
A They've done the past couple of seasons. I love them. They're the best!
Q So why a book?
A I guess when the opportunity came up right after the show, I thought it was really interesting. I knew that my book could be really visual. A follow-up to get everyone their fashion fix. I wanted it to be serious and fun.
Q Define "ferosh."
A Being fierce is a state of being, not something you can become. It's a high point of being a certain persona. Ferosh is a downgraded version of being fierce.
Q Do you have any new catchphrases since the show?
A Not really. I just stick to everything I already
say all day long.
Q Have you been watching Season Six?
A I have watched a few episodes, but I'm not up to date. It's hard to sit at home and have a night to yourself.
Q They still say "fierce" and "hot mess" all of the time.
A I guess so! All of my phrases are going. When Tim and I write each other e-mails, it's all in there.
Q What's good about this season?
A I think the talent level is a little bit higher than last season. It's tough because I haven't seen every episode. I'm waiting for something amazing to be done.
Q Who's the fiercest person you know?
A There's a long list. There definitely is this idea that I love Heidi and Victoria. There are so many divas I've met lately. My girls right now are Debra Messing and Natalie Portman.
Q What's the one thing women must buy for fall 2009?
A A great amazing coat or jacket -- you wear it every day anyway. It's your look. If it's special and ornate and unique, that's amazing.
Q What's the one thing we shouldn't wear this season?
A With the economy, people are about pairing low-budget and high-end. For me, underdressing is the trend that's not working. I don't think [the poor economy] means you shouldn't look your best.
Q In your book, you make the point that you should try not to wear the identical look twice.
A Mix what you have, as best as you can. That's what makes you individual and makes your style. You learn from yourself.
Q Any budget-friendly tips?
A Splurging once every so often is important. Accessories are the easiest way to be fashionable, on trend. Try H&M, Forever 21 and Payless. They give you fashion and they give you style.
Q You've done an incredible amount since "Project Runway." What's your goal?
A To build my brand and make sure the clothing and the clothing side of my company grows and develops. I've been doing accessories and things for other companies. But I want to have shoes and bags and jewelry and makeup all under the same brand. And in five years, I might be bored and join a circus.
Q You're going to have a new show on Bravo -- what took so long?
A I think having a TV show without anything to do on a TV show is boring. I needed it to have a strong background.
Q What about your hair? What was the inspiration -- an '80s reference?
A I'm not a big referencer. I was more into theater than music. It's what happened in the moment.

Finally, the coaching carousel has stopped spinning.
But questions remain.
In the latest edition of The Schein Nine, I look at burning questions facing those teams that filled vacancies as they head into the offseason.
1) Who is in charge in Cleveland?
I would call last week's news conference to introduce our friend Michael Lombardi as the Cleveland Browns' vice president of player personnel a rather wacky one. I love the Lombardi hire; he's one of the brightest minds in the NFL. But the Browns' process for replacing their general manager and head coach was both backwards and bizarre, especially for a team that likely knew long ago it would be making these moves.
Frankly, it all started when, after rightly firing former GM Tom Heckert and coach Pat Shurmur, new Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner announced they would hire their next coach before hiring their next general manager. I think that was illogical.
Look at the structure of the Baltimore Ravens. That's how a team should function. You hire a general manager, and the general manager hires a coach.
Perhaps you make an exception to that rule if you crave a huge name, a real-deal coach who signs off on a general manager to work with him, as Pete Carroll did when he was hired by the Seattle Seahawks. But Haslam whiffed on Chip Kelly before hiring first-timer Rob Chudzinski, who hardly inspired this year calling plays for the Carolina Panthers.
To Chudzinski's credit, he then hired two outstanding coordinators, bringing aboard former San Diego Chargers coach Norv Turner (not a head man, but a great coordinator) on the offensive side and former Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator Ray Horton.
And Lombardi is going to be superb.
But are they all on the same page? Who has the final say on talent? What about trades or the draft? How involved is Banner? Every move, every sound bite, is going to be scrutinized.
2) Can Andy Reid find the next Len Dawson?
Reid got a good chuckle when he said finding the next Dawson was his mission at a news conference introducing him as the Kansas City Chiefs' head coach. I guess it's better to laugh than cry.
There is no classic franchise quarterback for Reid to draft with the first overall pick in April. Will he pursue a veteran like Alex Smith or Matt Flynn? Does he want to try resurrecting Matt Cassel (who I don't see as being a Reid guy)?
Ryan Nassib and Geno Smith can be had in the draft, but would they fit Reid's system? Also, while I like both quarterbacks a lot, I don't see them going No. 1 overall, especially when Kansas City has many other needs.
But whatever he does at quarterback will be crucial to Reid's success.
3) Can Bruce Arians and Tom Moore fix Kevin Kolb?
I would argue that the offensive line, which badly needs to be fixed, represents a bigger draft need for the Arizona Cardinals than the quarterback position.
Part of the genius in new Cardinals GM Steve Keim's decision to hire Arians as his coach -- and what a fantastic hire it was -- has to do with Arians' knack for maximizing quarterbacks. If there's any duo that can repair Kolb's image, it would be Arians and assistant head coach/offensive coordinator Tom Moore. We will find out shortly if fixing Kolb was a prerequisite for Arians getting the gig.
The Cards do need to add two new quarterbacks to the roster. The trio of Kolb, John Skelton and Ryan Lindley represented an all-time low at the position. I'd look to add a veteran like Alex Smith.
4) Can Marc Trestman match his news conference?
I think Chicago Bears GM Phil Emery's introduction of new coach Marc Trestman was one of the most uplifting in a long time, with Emery and Trestman both displaying their intelligence and passion.
In a Thursday conversation on SiriusXM NFL Radio, Trestman told me that he's very appreciative of this job after taking a long and winding road to finally get an NFL head-coaching gig. For the record, I think Trestman is the right choice for the Bears. He's an NFL guy who has brilliantly mentored quarterbacks, and he has crucial head-coaching experience from his time in the Canadian Football League. I think he can turn quarterback Jay Cutler into a champion, and I like the appointment of Mel Tucker as defensive coordinator.
But we have to see how Trestman tackles adversity, which he'll likely encounter while handling Cutler. I think Trestman will adroitly deal with his players and the media, but this is a hot-button job in a high-pressure city.
Instant Debate: Best coaching hire?
5) Can Chip Kelly put together an NFL staff?
I gushed over the Philadelphia Eagles' decision to hire Kelly last week. Now I want to see his coaching staff. So far, I'm underwhelmed by the college types.
Shurmur, who is reportedly set to join Kelly's staff, possibly as offensive coordinator, would be an odd fit. Finding the right defensive coordinator will be crucial to Kelly's success.
6) Will the real Philip Rivers please stand up?
Congrats to the San Diego Chargers. They nailed their two big hires, replacing overmatched and cantankerous former general manager A.J. Smith with Tom Telesco, who intelligently picked Mike McCoy to replace overmatched coach Norv Turner.
For good measure, McCoy was smart enough to retain defensive coordinator John Pagano and hire Ken Whisenhunt as his offensive coordinator.
Turner and Smith were rightly identified as the problems in San Diego. But it's also important to note that Rivers regressed at quarterback.
McCoy was tabbed to fix Rivers, who now officially has no excuse. With the coaching talent around him, Rivers must breathe new life into his career.
The Bolts' offseason will be about helping Rivers accomplish that, and improving his supporting cast.
7) Can Doug Marrone reach Mario Williams and the Bills' D-line?
I wrote about how wonderful the Buffalo Bills' decision to make Marrone their next coach was when he was hired. He needs to address the quarterback position, but as I wrote then, he could do that by drafting Nassib, who would be reunited with his former Syracuse coach in Marrone and his former offensive coordinator in Nathaniel Hackett, a savvy young play-caller.
One of the main reasons that the Bills fizzled in 2012 was the underachievment of Williams and the rest of the defensive line. That group has the potential to be one of the elite front fours in the NFL. However, the injury-hampered Williams was a bust after taking all that cash from Ralph Wilson as a free agent. Marcell Dareus regressed as he dealt with personal tragedy. Mark Anderson was a non-factor.
The line can't perform like that again. Marrone made a smart choice by plucking former New York Jets coordinator Mike Pettine to run his defense.
8) Who is on the Gus Bus?
I love the Jacksonville Jaguars' appointment of David Caldwell as general manager, who said he knew former Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley was his coach when he interviewed him.
Bradley has the passion, and that's needed. But the Jaguars also need several new players, with former GM Gene Smith having left the cupboard bare.
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert was drafted by the old regime. Caldwell and Bradley can't get duped; they aren't attached to Gabbert. He should be jettisoned. Caldwell and Bradley can't mess around. They need a new starter -- and a fresh start.
One bit of good news for them? Running back Maurice Jones-Drew told me on SiriusXM NFL Radio that he won't hold out this year and will be ready for camp.
9) Can Pep Hamilton and Andrew Luck make more magic?
I thought Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano socked it out of the park by reuniting Hamilton and Luck after Arians took the Cardinals job. Now the former offensive coordinator at Stanford will put Luck back in the West Coast offense. This will be a change from what Luck did with the Colts in 2012, but the quarterback and his supporting cast, including veteran receiver Reggie Wayne, are more than up to the task.

This is an activity for those of us who teach young children or for parents who want to give their children a head start in learning piano. I made this for a 4-year-old who loves anything related to firemen. I wanted an activity he would enjoy that would be a good way to reinforce finger numbers. Thanks to this game, his confidence has soared because it is now easy for him.
In addition to finger numbers, this activity helps children learn the meaning of the symbols RH and LH as well as to learn to distinguish their right and left hands.
I printed my cards on magnetic printer sheets but you can also use card stock. The magnetic sheets are kind of pricey, so shop around and see if you can use a coupon. Mine came in a sample pack, so I wanted to try them out. You might want to try printing them on card stock and using magnetic strips you can buy at craft stores. Disclaimer: My magnetic cards are a little difficult for young students to use until they get used to how thin they are. I remove them from the cookie sheet and hand them to the children until they learn how. Standing them up on the sides of the cookie sheet helps.
- The free Firefighter Finger Numbers printable, printed on card stock or magnetic printer sheets
- Cookie tin or magnetic surface, optional
- Print out both pages of Firefighter Finger Numbers and cut them into individual squares.
- The student will match the finger with a dot on the "glove" with the correct number on the firefighter "hat."
- Place all the cards in view, so that the young child can see them and select the correct card.
- The student will learn faster if he says the finger number out loud as he works.
- If the student is capable, (older) play a memory game with the cards. If you do this activity, do not use all the cards, because otherwise it is too difficult for the intended age group.
- To visually match a finger number to the correct finger on the left or right hand
- To recognize the printer symbols LH and RH as right hand and left hand
- To identify a picture of a hand as a left or right hand.
- Early childhood, age 4 to first grade
If you need more material for learning right and left hands and finger numbers, check out Colorful Hands, Finger Numbers for Beginners, and Colorful Fingers.
I am working on a Bingo Game of some sort for finger numbers as well as some other early childhood printables. Sign up for email updates of my blog so you won't have to keep checking. Your email will remain anonymous. Click Follow Susan's Blog by Email at the top right of the page.

How we define "natural" fragrance
We say that goop fragrance is "composed entirely of natural ingredients" and "made with natural essences." What do we mean, exactly, by that?
First off, there is no official definition of the term "natural" by the FDA, which governs cosmetics. (source)
When we say that our goop fragrance is composed of natural ingredients, we mean that all of the ingredients were extracted from a plant by steam or heat extraction, cold pressing, or carbon dioxide extraction.
Below is a complete list of the ingredients in our perfume and an explanation for how each ingredient was extracted from the plant.
- Non-GMO Sugar Cane Alcohol
- Water
- Triethyl Citrate – Citric acid extracted by molecular distillation from citrus peels and egg whites.
- Boswellia Carterii gum extract – A composition of gums and resins extracted by steam from the olibanum plant.
- Cyperus Scariosus Root Oil – Extracted by steam from the cypriol plant.
- Pogostemon Cablin (Patchouli) Leaf Extract – Extracted by steam from the patchouli plant.
- Juniperus Virginiana Oil – Extracted by carbon dioxide from the red cedar tree.
- Cistus Ladaniferus Resin Extract. Extracted by steam from the labdanum plant.
- Styrax Benzoin Gum. Extracted by steam from the benzoin tree.
- Cupressus Sempervirens Stem Oil – Extracted by steam from the cypress tree.
- Helichrysum Italicum Extract – Extracted by CO2 from the helichrysum plant.
- Vanillin – A blend of vanillas extracted by CO2 from the vanilla beans.
- Eugenia Caryophyllus Leaf Oil – Extracted by steam from the clove plant.
- Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract – Extracted by steam from the vanilla plant.
- Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Seed Extract – Extracted by steam from the coffee bean.

Industry newcomer Kruger Energy, based in Montreal, officially opened its 101.2 MW Port Alma Wind Farm in November. The project uses 44 Siemens 2.3 MW turbines, marking the turbine maker's entry into the Canadian market. Port Alma won a 20-year power purchase contract from the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) in November 2005. The project is located in Chatham-Kent in southern Ontario, which has been hard hit by declines in the province's manufacturing sector. The region is looking to create a new generation of green jobs in the renewable energy sector.
"Chatham-Kent Council has placed the development of green energy as one of its four top strategic directions for the years 2007 through to 2010," says town mayor Randy Hope. "The Kruger Energy project has given that strategic direction the real substance and impetus it needed."
Toronto developer AIM PowerGen completed its 2008 build program with the commissioning of its Mohawk Point and Clear Creek wind farms. Electricity from the projects, both 9.9 MW in size and using Vestas 1.65 MW turbines, is being sold to the OPA under 20-year renewable energy standard offer program contracts, which offer a fixed price of C$0.11/kWh for electricity generated by small-scale renewable energy projects up to 10 MW in size and connected into the distribution grid rather than at the level of the transmission network.
"These projects are among the first to be built under Ontario's standard offer program and among some of the first generation projects to be connected to a local distribution system. We really were breaking new ground," says CEO Mike Crawley.
The company completed two other standard offer projects earlier this year and AIM vice-president David Timm says it is now working on getting four more, all 9.9 MW in size and collectively know as the Harrow project, ready for construction in the spring.
Calgary-based Enbridge Inc has also completed its 8.25 MW Cruickshank standard offer wind project, made up of five Vestas 1.65 MW turbines and located near Kincardine, a town on the shore of Lake Huron. The company is also in the process of commissioning its 181.5 MW Ontario Wind Power Project in the same region, made up of 110 Vestas 1.65 MW. Enbridge had hoped to finish it by the end of 2008, but the company's Bob Simpson says it is now targeting completion for the first quarter of 2009.
The first non-Ontario project to come on line in Canada in 2008 is Cartier Wind Energy's 109.5 MW Carleton project in Quebec, which was finished on budget and on time to meet Hydro-Quebec's December delivery deadline, says Michel Letellier from Innergex Renewable Energy. Cartier is a partnership between Quebec's Innergex and Calgary's TransCanada Corporation.
Carleton is Cartier's third wind farm built on the province's Gaspé Peninsula after the company won six contracts totalling 740 MW of capacity from Hydro-Quebec in 2004. Construction of the project, made up of 73 GE Energy 1.5 MW turbines, began in October. In November, Innergex closed C$53.4 million in non-recourse project financing for its 38% interest in the project, converting a five-year construction loan into a loan amortising over 18.5 years. The lenders also provided an 18.5-year swap facility in order to hedge the project from any adverse future interest rate movements.
"Stemming from the long term relationships we have established with strong financial institutions, closing this financing in the current market demonstrates that high quality projects can still attract funding at interesting terms and conditions. With the swap facility in place, the project will benefit from long-term financing at an effective interest rate slightly below 5%," says Letellier.
By early December, Canada's installed wind capacity sat at 2246 MW. But it was expected to go higher, with projects in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland scheduled for completion in 2008.

This article studies the relationship between partner selection and socioeconomic status (SES) attainment and mobility in five rural parishes in southern Sweden, 1815-1894. Three different aspects of partner selection are considered: age, social origin, and geographical origin. We use an individual-level database containing information on the SES origin (parental land holding and occupation), age difference, and place of birth of the married couple. The results show a powerful association between partner selection and SES attainment and mobility. Social heterogamy was particularly important, but age heterogamy and geographic exogamy was also clearly related to both SES attainment and mobility.

MGT512: Security Leadership Essentials For Managers
Associated Certification: GIAC Security Leadership (GSLC)
Course Syllabus · 30 CPEs · Lab Requirements
Access Period: 4 months · Price: 6,600 USD · Instructor: Frank Kim
Security managers need both technical knowledge and management skills to gain the respect of technical team members, understand what technical staff are actually doing, and appropriately plan and manage security projects and initiatives. This is a big and important job that requires an understanding of a wide array of security topics.
This course empowers you to become an effective security manager and get up to speed quickly on information security issues and terminology. You won't just learn about security, you will learn how to manage security.
To accomplish this goal, MGT512 covers a wide range of security topics across the entire security stack. Data, network, host, application, and user controls are covered in conjunction with key management topics that address the overall security lifecycle. This also includes governance and technical controls focused on protecting, detecting, and responding to security issues.
This approach prepares you to:
- Make sense of different cybersecurity frameworks
- Understand and analyze risk
- Understand the pros and cons of different reporting relationships
- Manage technical personnel
- Build a vulnerability management program
- Inject security into modern DevOps workflows
- Strategically leverage a SIEM
- Change behavior and build a security-aware culture
- Effectively manage security projects
- Enable modern security architectures and the cloud
MGT512 uses case studies, group discussions, team-based exercises, and in-class games to help students absorb both technical and management topics.
This course will prepare you to:
- Become an effective information security manager
- Get up to speed quickly on information security issues and terminology
- Establish a minimum standard of security knowledge, skills, and abilities
- Speak the same language as technical security professionals
Please note that some course material for SEC401 and MGT512 may overlap. We recommend SEC401 for those interested in a more technical course of study, and MGT512 for those primarily interested in a leadership-oriented but less technical learning experience.
This course prepares you for the GSLC certification, which meets the requirement of the DoD 8570 IAM Level 1, 2, 3
Course Syllabus
MGT512.1: Building Your Program
The course starts with a tour of the information and topics that effective security managers and leaders must know to function in the modern security environment. This includes an understanding of the different types of cybersecurity frameworks available to structure your security team and program. Risk is central to effective information security management, and key risk concepts are discussed to lay the foundation for effective risk assessment and management. Security policy is a key tool that security managers use to manage risk. We'll cover approaches to policy to help you plan and manage your policy process. Finally, security functions, reporting relationships, and roles and responsibilities are discussed to give the advancing manager a view into effective security team and program structure.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6

- Managing Policy
- Program Structure
- Security Functions
- Reporting Relationships
- Three Lines of Defense
- Roles and Responsibilities
MGT512.2: Protecting Data and Networks
Day 2 provides foundational knowledge to protect data and networks. This includes building an understanding of cryptography concepts, encryption algorithms, and applications of cryptography. Since encrypting data alone is not sufficient, the distinction between privacy and security is discussed to give managers a primer on key privacy concepts. Finally, a thorough discussion of network security is modeled around the various layers of the network stack. This allows managers to gain a deeper understanding of what their teams are talking about, what vendors are selling, and where various issues and protections lay within the seven layers of the network model.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
- Data Protection
- Cryptography Concepts
- Encryption Algorithms
- Encryption Applications
- Privacy Primer
- Privacy and Security
- Network Security
- Layer 1 and 2: Overview and Attacks
Layer 3

- IPv6 Considerations
- Layer 4: TCP and UDP
- Application Layer
- Proxie, NGFW, IDS, NSM
MGT512.3: Protecting and Patching Systems
Day 3 is focused on protecting and patching systems. This includes coverage of host security that encompasses endpoint and server security along with malware and attack examples. Modern infrastructure as code approaches and tools are also discussed as ways to automate consistent deployment of standard configurations. Managers must also be knowledgeable about software development processes, issues, and application vulnerabilities. Coverage includes an overview of the secure SDLC, OWASP Top Ten, and leading-edge development processes built on DevOps. Managers must also understand physical security controls that, when not implemented appropriately, can cause technical security controls to fail or be bypassed. All of these issues and corresponding vulnerabilities must be appropriately managed. This leads to a discussion on building a vulnerability management program and the associated process for successfully finding and fixing vulnerabilities.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6

MGT512.4: Leading Modern Security Initiatives
Day 4 covers what managers need to know about leading modern security initiatives. Security awareness is a huge component of any security program that is focused on driving activities that lead to changes in human behavior and creating a more risk-aware and security-aware culture. For any project or initiative, security leaders must also be able to drive effective project execution. Having a well-grounded understanding of the project management process makes it easier to move these projects forward. The cloud is a major initiative that many organizations are either tackling now or planning to undertake. To get ready for these initiatives, an overview of Amazon Web Services (AWS) is provided to serve as a reference, along with a discussion of key cloud security issues based on the Cloud Security Alliance guidance. The cloud, the rise of mobile devices, and other factors are highlighting weaknesses in traditional, perimeter-oriented security architectures. This leads to a discussion of the Zero Trust Model. To execute such new initiatives security leaders must also develop negotiation skills and the ability to manage highly technical team members.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6

MGT512.5: Detecting and Responding to Attacks
Day 5 is focused on detection and response capabilities. This includes gaining appropriate visibility via logging, monitoring, and thinking strategically about a security information and event management (SIEM) system. These logs are a core component of any Security Operations Center (SOC). The key functions of a SOC are discussed along with how to design, build, operate, and mature security operations for your organization. The incident response process is discussed in relation to identifying, containing, eradicating, and recovering from security incidents. This leads into a discussion of longer-term disaster recovery and business continuity planning. Finally, the course ends with a war game that simulates an actual incident. This tabletop simulation contains a number of injects or points at which students are presented with additional information to which they can respond. After dealing with the incident itself, the simulation concludes with a game focused on choosing appropriate security controls to mitigate future incidents.

Author Statement
"I have found that technical professionals who are taking on management responsibility need to learn how to convey security concepts in ways that non-technical people can understand. At the same time, managers who are new to security need to learn more about the different domains of cybersecurity. In both cases, there is a need to learn about the work of managing security. That is why this course focuses on the big picture of securing the enterprise, from governance all the way to the technical security topics that serve as the foundation for any security manager. Ultimately, the goal of the course is to ensure that you, the advancing manager, can make informed choices to improve security at your organization."

Morenci city council conducted two public hearings Monday night prior to the regular meeting.
The annual budget hearing drew no comments from the public while the parking lot rebuild plan (ICE grant) did result in some discussion.
Scott Merillat of Associated Engineers pointed out a few refinements from the original parking lot proposal that council first discussed in February.
Merillat described changes in the approaches to some parking areas and a walkway on the north side of the main parking lots, behind the businesses.
A sidewalk could also be added along the south side of Baker Street, he said. The best placement, he said, would be right next to the curb because of the limited amount of space in front of some residences.
Mayor Keith Pennington suggested that council might exchange the cost of installing the sidewalks for obtaining an easement for the walk from property owners.
David Sallows, who lives on Baker Street, expressed dissatisfaction with the location of Dumpsters for businesses to use. He suggested moving them north closer to the Eagles. Merillat said he would look at the possibility.
Merillat said if sufficient funds are available, the recycling center drive would also be repaved.
Pennington cautioned residents not to expect to see work begin soon because the city is still waiting to hear back from the state historical preservation agency. When state funds are used for demolition, a review is required.
"We'll get done what we can this year," Pennington said.
The public had no questions about the city's 2010-11 budget, but there was discussion among council members.
Councilor Tracy Schell asked about the change in the general fund contingency account compared to an earlier proposal, noting a large decrease.
Greg Braun explained that some items increased and others went down. The largest change came in proposed library spending due to the addition of health insurance benefits to library director Colleen Leddy.
The finance committee recommended that when the contract comes due, Pennington said, that health insurance benefits be given to the library director.
He added that perhaps the best time to discuss the issue is when salaries are reviewed in July.
"But it would be difficult to make a change if funds were not in the budget," he said. "If council decided against offering that, council could move the funds back to the contingency fund."
Schell noted that the library is still being asked to contribute money to the general fund, and now the proposal is to add an expense more than double that amount.
She suggested waiting until funds are no longer needed from the library and then consider the issue.
Council member Leasa Slocum said the library director is the only full-time staff member not receiving health insurance, and money is now available in the budget.
"I think that would be a wonderful thing to offer once we're in a position where we don't have to ask the library for money," Schell said.
Councilor Jason Cook asked for information about salary raises for city employees. All department heads are receiving a 1.5 percent increase, he was told, except for city administrator Renée Schroeder who is to receive three percent. Union employees will also receive three percent increases.
• Additional city council news will be reported in next week's Observer.

Over the last couple of week, Madfinger's latest game — Dead Trigger — sparked off a discussion that piracy in Android is still a major concern. The developer had initially released Dead Trigger for a $0.99, instead of its usual price of $6.99 on both iOS and Android, so as to make the game more affordable and curb piracy.
A few days later, Madfinger rolled out a major update for the Android version of the game and made it available as a free downloaded. The company stated that due to the high piracy rate of the game in the Android ecosystem, the company has decided to make the game free to download and play with In-App purchases for Android users.
Today, Madfinger has released a new update of Dead Trigger for iOS users that brings with it a bunch of new weapons, environments, gameplay enhancements, bug fixes and much more. Surprisingly, Madfinger has also made Dead Trigger available as a free download for iOS users with this update.
Madfinger has not provided any reason as to why it decided to make the game free to download on iOS as well. It certainly cannot be piracy since iOS users are known to pay for their apps. The company will, however, reward users who paid for the game with 25 golds and other credits.
On a serious note, Madfinger should really grow up and stop blaming piracy on Android as the reason they decided to make the game free. Dead Trigger is filled with In-App purchases, and reports do suggest that IAP bring developers more money than the outright purchase of a game from the store. If anything, the company should apologize for blaming the high level of piracy in the Android ecosystem.

I'd say start with an arduino as they are easy on beginners and expandable so you won't outgrow it really quick. They're also pretty cheap too for what you get.Don't give up on more basic IC though. You'll be using them for the rest of your electronic adventures.
that software for PIC controllers is not free as opposed to AVR.
"MPLAB C Compilers (free student editions available for download) "Free with limitations, excuse me.
Skip C until you learn assembler. Assembler will teach you much more about how uController really do work....

A bit over a decade ago, I liked the Fairchild ACE controllers (but sadly, they went out),
I liked those, too. It was funny, though, at the time there was such a push by Fairchild and my local distributor to find every PIC application known and re-do it with an ACE. Basically show everyone that the ACE is the new PIC.
I joked at the time that had I jammed a PIC into my eye and walked up to my Fairchild guy, he would have jammed two ACE chips into his eye just to one-up Microchip.
