Yesterday I found myself sitting in front of some ISA web proxy logs that were stored in the W3C format. My first thought is that I'd used Log Parser to do some initial analysis however I wondered what quick wins I might have if I tested my MDL parser over the log file. Surprisingly there were no errors and the tool ran successfully the first time. While I'd need to do some further testing to confirm that it discovered all the URLs it took me less than five minutes to run and provided me with some instant results. Although in this instance none were significant in terms of pivot points it was certainly worth the small effort I put in to achieve a result.
Harlan has recently asked "How well do you know what your tools do for you?" for which he's received a variety of responses. It's a great question and one of the reasons I'm doing the SANS artifact blog series is to understand my tools and the underlying dataset. One way to know your tools is to code your tools. In order to code your tool you'll need to have at least a basic understanding of underlying data set / artifact and most likely view and understand its raw format. Once you understand the data set I think its also beneficial to put some thought into potential pivot points for that data set. If you need to analyse that artifact in the future what could assist you with identifying quick wins in your investigation. In saying that I'll attempt to identify pivot points in the SANS artifacts I write about from this point onwards in the hope that it will assist myself or others in the future.
For anyone that is not I aware I've created a Twitter account @sploited which you may wish to follow. There are a number of interesting conversations on Twitter and I encourage people to get involved. In saying that lets move on with the artifact. SANS lists the following information within the poster.
Tracks the specific executable used by an application to open the files documented in the OpenSaveMRU key. In addition, each value also tracks the directory location for the last file that was accessed by that application.
Notepad.exe was last run using the
C:\Users\<Username>\Desktop folder
XP NTUSER.DAT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\LastVisitedMRU
Win7 NTUSER.DAT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\LastVisitedPidlMRU
Tracks the application executables used to open OpenSaveMRU and the last file path used.
We've previously covered the SANS Forensic Artifact 1: Open/Save MRU and this artifact is really a continuation of where we finished with Artifact 1. As per the description listed this key tracks the executable that was used to open the files identified in the OpenSaveMRU key. I decided to go back to my original theory of creating two text files again (although I only really needed one) that I'd open through the Open/Save window. Once again to ease my investigation I created a quick script that I could use to parse my live ntuser.dat file and compare results. At this point I'm using an older Windows XP test machine for this analysis. The script is as follows
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('dir /b ^"C:\Documents and Settings\*^"') DO .\tools\hob\hobocopy.exe "c:\Documents and Settings\%%G" .\hives\%%G NTUSER.DAT
::Parse ntuser.dat using RegRipper
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('dir /b ^"C:\Documents and Settings\*^"') DO (
.\tools\rr\rip.exe -r .\hives\%%G\NTUSER.DAT -f ntuser >> output\rr-ntuser-%%G.txt
I created two files in C:\temp\SANS LastVistedMRU named SANS LastVisitedMRU Test File *.txt where * is the number 1 and 2. I ran the script above to dump my hive and analyse with RegRipper. As expected I received the following results.
The above results have been clipped just to show the necessary artifacts. I decided to do a word search of the RegRipper output for both the folder name and the text file name. What I found interesting was the affect that I'd had on other artifacts in the registry just by doing the small amount of actions on this system. Listed below is the output of that search

Again I've clipped the results to the artifacts of interest. Recently Harlan posted about an Analysis Matrix where he discusses adding event categories to artifacts so that we can add additional context to our investigation or additionally assist with clipping our timelines so they only contain artifacts which relate to a particular category. This got me thinking about creating a "matrix" or "mapping" of the affect that events have on other artifacts within a system. Harlan additional mentions that the presence or the lack of an artifact can be an artifact in itself. To explain I thought I'd look at the incident above where I've completed the following actions:
- Created a new folder on my workstation
- Created two (2) new text files
- Opened notepad
- File -> Open and opened the two files created in step 2.
# File Open/Save (# is the appropriate file extension)
-> Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\LastVisitedMRU
-> Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\*

-> B... C:/Documents and Settings/username/Recent/SANS LastVistedMRU.lnk
-> NOTEPAD.EXE-3328480B.pf last run (1068)
-> M... .//Software/Microsoft/Notepad
By no means is the list above a definitive list and I also believe that it needs some further thought in order to shape it into something usable such as the SANS Forensic Poster.
I put some thought in to how you might automate the discovery of potential pivot points with this category however again it is most likely determined by the incident at hand. For example you might want to understand whether any of the files opened / saved contained a keyword such as credit card number or other sensitive business knowledge. There are a number of ways of doing this however when reviewing just the output above you may do something like the following:
- Create a script that parses the output above identifying files or directories
- Based on the files found above automatically conduct keyword search across each of the files
- Conduct an md5 search of the files identified to see whether a match is found for a file provided by your customer
- Produce an output file containing the files discovered that contained the keyword so you can review at a later stage
a) fairly simple to create and
b) require minimal effort to execute quickly
c) identify pivot points for additional analysis and
d) potentially clip your timeline to something more manageable.
Its not going to work in every scenario but what you're trying to do is to identify quick wins with minimal effort.

Continued: No date set for Morris murder retrial
Alvin Lee "Butch" Morris was back in Albemarle Circuit Court this morning after a seven-day murder trial in July ended in a mistrial, and it's still unclear whether the prosecution will retry him for the 21-year-old murder of Roger Lee Shifflett, the father of five who was gunned down at the Southwind Gas and Grocery in 1988.
Last week, Commonwealth's Attorney Denise Lunsford said she hadn't decided whether to try Morris again after the jury evenly split 6-6 in July.
Investigators had long suspected Morris because he had an alleged motive– he married the murdered man's widow– and because he falsely accused another man of confessing to the murder. But they didn't feel that was enough to convince a jury.
When police reopened the long-dormant case in 2006, a cigarette butt found at the scene contained Morris' DNA. Lunsford brought charges in 2008, and in court, told the jury it was a circumstantial case.
"I'm pushing for a trial," said the victim's brother, Earl Shifflett, after the brief hearing. "We need another trial." His sister, Dorothy McAllister, agreed.
Judge Cheryl Higgins ordered Morris to be back in court August 27 to set a trial date– if the prosecution decides to go forward with a new trial.
"Obviously as defense counsel, I'd like to see the case ended," says attorney Andre Hakes, "but I understand it's a difficult decision for the prosecution and I think Ms. Lunsford is being conscientious in her efforts to make the best decision possible."
Morris was joined by about a dozen supporters, including wife Barbara, with whom he will soon celebrate a 20th wedding anniversary, and Lee Shifflett, youngest son of the dead man who was raised by Morris.
Updated 2:45pm August 4, 2009.

This new Commonwealth Attorney is wasting state tax money on trying this case in the first place. Now doing a retrial on a declared mistrial is even more wasteful. Mr. Morris is innocent. The Shifflett family has been beat up and emotionally tried for too long by this unseasoned CA...they're heart broken over their loved one and it just makes misery for worse for the family and children. Halt this mess and let everyone go on with their lives and quit being a liberal CA and wasting lives and monies like it grows on trees. Good gosh... there are bigger cases to try.
First, let me say that Roger Shifflett was a very good friend of mine. As much as I would like to see the murderer behind bars for life, I don't think a second trial will accomplish anything except wasting the taxpayer's money. If the first trial resulted in a 6/6 split on guilt from the very first minute of jury deliberation, a second trial would be lucky to produce a 9/3 or 10/2 split next time. At best, I don't think the commonwealth will ever achieve as much as a 11/1 split. The evidence beyond a reasonable doubt simply isn't there.
While I can't speak for Denise Lunsford of course, I do feel strongly she would agree with me. Breaking this news to the family that's requesting a second trial will be one of the hardest things she will ever have to do as the Albemarle County Commonwealth Attorney. But, the sooner the better! Both families involved are sitting on pins and needles just waiting for her decision.

I should introduce you to my friend SUE SMITH, 'cause that's what she likes to be called.
Chaos Uncontained
Welcome to my world. Keep your hands and arms inside the ride at all times...

Dearest Susan,
I see you were too afraid to email ME back. That's OK dear. I understand.
I guess you think you were really doing James a favor by sending him that first email. James already knows about my blog. He's read it. Way before you ever did.
He knows how I feel about his children. And he knows how they feel about me. He also knows how I feel about him. I love him deeply and desperately. Passionately. Just as he loves me.
And, although you were trying to be his knight in shinning armour, as it were... you failed. You see, he doesn't need saving from me. Neither do his children. I am not "mean" to them. I pick them up from school, I help with homework. I make them dinner, wash their clothes, read to them at bedtime. I care for them. I go to all their sporting events and cheer them on. They are not mistreated.
But thank you so much for taking so much time out of your apparently busy life to try to "fix" or "break" ours. I hope that you can take time tomorrow to do something for yourself. I know I will.
PS: your little email explaining who you really are was quite humorous. You are fooling no one.

The Serious Eats Guide to Thanksgiving Beer Pairing
Beer and food are better together.
Thanksgiving: it's a time for family and friends to get together and eat way too damn much—not a time for overwrought beer pairings with elaborate, coordinated presentations. After all, there's no one beverage that's going to perfectly match every item on your plate and you won't want a separate glass for your turkey, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts. With all that stemware in front of you, you wouldn't be able to see your loved ones. But the beer you choose to serve is still important—as with any good celebration, you've gotta have good hooch.
For Thanksgiving, you'll want an elegant bottle to share amongst your tablemates that won't clash with any of the food on the table.
Here's what I'd recommend with dinner:
The Basics
On your Thanksgiving dinner plate, you'll have serious diversity in flavors, textures, temperatures and weights. This makes it tricky to pick a single beer to succeed with everything you consume. So it's best to find a common characteristic across each menu item and go from there.
In the case of Thanksgiving dinner, that commonality lies in the oven. All the best stuff on the Thanksgiving table comes from there: turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, pies, you name it. Food cooked in the oven generally undergoes browning and caramelization—just like the darker malts used to create amber and brown-colored beers do when they are kilned and prepared for brewing. The parallel flavors created by these shared processes offer an easy connection between darker malty beer and oven-roasted food. You'll want some contrasting flavor elements to keep things interesting, but this narrows the field to a few beer styles.
Bière de Garde
Bière de garde is the style I see most frequently recommended as a versatile Thanksgiving beer and I can't say I disagree. Generally speaking, these beers are assertive enough in alcohol and carbonation to stand up to richness but subtle enough in flavor to avoid dominating the more delicate Thanksgiving dishes. The amber (or "ambrée") versions of the style commonly sport sport bready, toasty and caramelly malt flavor alongside fruity and spicy yeast character—a perfect fit for the autumnal flavors of the Turkey Day plate.
My issue with the near-universal recommendation of bière de garde is that commercial examples display a huge range in flavors, perceived hop bitterness, and levels of carbonation and alcohol. Some will naturally be much better than others for your celebration.
Beers to try:
Named for a character in Les Misérables, Brasserie St. Sylvestre's Gavroche is a versatile food beer focused on the interplay between caramelly, toasty malt flavor and apple-like esters. Tasty stuff available in a beautiful 750mL bottle.
It may be a bit of a stretch to call this a bière de garde in the strictest sense, but Brasserie Dupont's Bière de Beloeil is fantastic with Thanksgiving food. It was a hit when I brought it to last year's beer vs. wine Thanksgiving battle, and it will be a hit for you too.
Belgian-style dubbels make a statement at the dinner table. Traditionally bottled in elegant cork-and-cage finished 750mL vessels, these look like beers worthy of celebration. Thankfully, they drink pretty darn well in these settings too. High in carbonation, these beers lift the mouth-coating richness of gravy and dairy-laden mashed potatoes from the palate. Flavor-wise, the dubbel sports a one-two punch of dense dark fruit and peppery, clove-like phenol character that complements sweet potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce and the bird itself.
Look for a bottle that de-emphasizes alcoholic intensity without tasting overly sweet. Aggressively alcoholic beers will taste astringent and harsh among the less-rich items on your plate and overly sweet beers will taste cloying in comparison to more savory dishes.
Beers to try:
At less than $10 per bottle, Ommegang Abbey Ale is a good choice for parties with a lot of guests. It is rich and complex without being too sweet and comes in a beautiful 750ml bottle.
Brasserie Dupont Moinette Brune is another great value around $10 with similar characteristics. This bottle is slightly sweeter and a bit fruitier, but just as delicious.
The Märzen and Oktoberfest styles are functionally identical and are characterized by toasty malt dominance. Moderate in alcohol and low in bitterness, these beers are an ultra-safe but satisfying play for your Thanksgiving table—there's nothing here to throw your food out of balance, great examples can be had for cheap, and your guests will probably be at least somewhat familiar with beers of this style already. Dunkel lagers and drier doppelbocks feature a similarly malt-forward flavor and will function in quite the same way.
Beers to try:
Samuel Adams' Octoberfest is easy to find in November and has holiday-appropriate patriotic branding to boot. It's an inexpensive, decent example of the style but its packaging lacks the classy table aesthetics we're looking for here. Still, not a bad choice. When it comes to the liquid, I prefer examples by Ayinger and Hacker-Pschorr, which are similarly named Oktober Fest-Märzen and Oktoberfest Märzen, respectively. These bottles class it up a bit and are both available in 500ml formats for sharing.
Scotch Ale
Scotch ales are all about smooth, caramelized malt character. Red grape, toffee, and peat smoke flavors are par for the course here, offering savory and sweet complements to your plate. These beers carry some heft, weighing in with enough ABV (think 6-9%ish) to hang with the richer dishes. They can be great with dessert too, but reserve that for sweeter examples.
Beers to try:
I like Traquair's Jacobite and House Ale with dinner and Cigar City's Big Sound Scotch Ale with dessert.
Brown Ale
Once a style derided as a boring one by the craft beer community, brown ales have expanded far beyond the scope of one-dimensional Newcastle facsimiles. You'll find toasty, roasty, nutty and chocolatey flavors packed into your average brown ale and many examples (especially the American-brewed ones) feature a significant hop profile as well. Expect a balanced beverage that will fit in comfortably with everything on your dinner plate.
Beers to try:
Alesmith's Nut Brown Ale is a fantastic straight-forward brown ale in a 22 ounce bottle for sharing, while Dogfish Head's Indian Brown Ale offers a more modern approach, hybridizing IPA, Scotch Ale and American brown ale.
Save a little room for pie? Of course you did.
Pairing Beer with Thanksgiving Pies
Pairing beer and dessert can be a difficult task, but I covered a few of the basics in this recent guide. Thanksgiving dessert pairing presents another challenge of diversity. You're likely to encounter pecan, apple, and pumpkin pies, sometimes all on your plate at once. Sweetness levels aside, the pile of desserts you amass may be at once spicy, tart, rich, bright, and weighty.
To accommodate all, find yourself a sweet-leaning English-style barleywine like the J.W. Lees Harvest series. These beers offer a deep malt complexity that works really well with pie. Expect a full range of caramel, toffee, and dark fruit character from these beers. Oxidative sherry, port and leather may be present as well—all welcome complements to pecan, pumpkin, and apple pie.
If you can find it, a good milk stout (aka sweet stout) will offer an appropriately-sweet chocolatey counterpoint to your pecan and pumpkin pies. It's a bit over the top, but Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout is just what you're looking for with a pairing like this. On its own, it overwhelms with sweet chocolate flavor, but with pecan and pumpkin pies, it tastes more balanced, offering a satisfying back and forth between the sweets and the beer.
Sticking to apple pie and want to try something different? Sweeter dunkelweizens, like Weihenstephan's Hefeweissbier Dunkel, are great with less-sweet apple pies. Packed with banana, raisin and nut flavor with a zippy clove-like yeast character, these fit right in with the cinnamon-apple flavor of apple pie.

Don't exagerate. What I thought you asked was "Hey, I suggest you delete Keenime forum because it's empty most of the time"And Srdjan, what I did was merely ask "hey, you guys know about the Keenime Forum? Are you taking it down?"; I did not go like "Hey, this is Your Supreme Commander Speaking, I DEMAND you take down this forum".
Mostly anything of what we talk anywhere can be moved anywhere. For instance, GD can contain most of Junk, T&T, Crossover, Gear threads. Currently, Striker is forcing a little more harsh content of GD, luckily he isn't including Keenime in it, or it would end up with every anime discussion thread being moved here. But, eh, we're just talking, threads start with something end with something else, for instance there's always several discussions in Junk that would be more appropriate for GD (for instance those about films based on comics).wp wrote:McDuffies, it may not be too hard on resources, but it is a useless forum. Look, this is the first surge in comments in literally months. And wow, there're about 5 people who are consistently posting! If you needed an entire forum for every 5 posters... Most of what we're talking about can easily go in Off-Topic.
Easy there, I'm not prosecuting anyone. I just say that if he wanted this forum deleted, the most logical thing to do would be to post about that in GD, asking others of opinion, plus asking for support. Jex says that his PM was in form of question, not the request, thus I was misguided.I don't think JexKerome is going behind anyone's back. Not many forum-goers have seen this thread because no one cares about this forum enough to look at the threads inside.
There's a pretty simple and logical reason why I'm not checking this forum often: I'm not such a fan of manga and anime, most of things discussed here would be not interesting to me. Someone recently mentioned something about either reviving or killing this forum (I can't remember) so I peaked in out of curiosity and to throw my two cents on the table, that's all.This thread has been going on for about two or three weeks, and now you've decided to peek in? To me, that shows you don't really care that much (unless you've been on vacation or something, but even then, I don't see you posting much on this board).
I mean, I really don't care about this particular forum, but I like idea of this forum hosting several communities. Being that I don't thing "Games" should be considered community, it would leave CCa as the only active.
Well, to me, a possibility of forming a new generation of this community is also a good reason. Let me explain:And sure, there's plenty of dead forums out there, but that doesn't mean we *shouldn't* get rid of them. The existence of free HD space is not an excuse to keep this alive. Now, knowing that deleting it would cause major hiccups in the server; that's a good excuse not to kill the forum. Since this is the case, I agree not to kill Keenime.
Suppose if I want to discuss about Nick Cave: I could post on Junk forum, most of people would state their opinion on him including whether they've heard of him or not, some would know his most well known songs, I'd be lucky if there was more that a couple of people with whom I could discuss about other, less popular songs. And that discussion would be boring to others, plus we would probably be constantly interupted.
If I wanted to discuss about particular songs, go more into details, etc, I would logically post in a forum of community of Nick Cave's fans. So, go online communities!
As for the fact that this community is currently dead, well it mustn't be that way. Even you could try to revive it; for instance, by inviting people you know who like anime to join the discussion here; contacting the old moderator of this board to see if he still can/want to help; asking Striker to choose a new moderator; eventually inviting new people to forum: for instance, you can stalk for new interesting manga comics and inviting their authors - it's more likely that they'll be looking for such community; Starting topics on subjects of particular animes.
I don't think it's a valid reason. It can be technique, it's just that that technique is very popular with artists of that style. Using this technique or not, is a part of particulare artist's style, but not an essential part. Because you'll be able to reckognize an artist by his style even if he doesn't use a sweatdrop or such. Even more, artist could be doing one comedic and one not-comedic comic, both in similar style, but using sweatdrops and other only in first one.And I disagree with you about chibi and sweat drops. I haven't seen even close to all the manga there is to see, but I can say with utmost confidence that most manga with comedic elements uses chibi and sweat drops. Certainly, all the comedies I've seen use them. To me, this makes it a stylistic element and not a method/technique. Therefore, I would go as far as to say that they are elements intrinsic to anime/manga comedy. Even though sweat drops have been used in many other works, they are still an essentially Japanese contrivance.
It's not like anime eyes, if an artist drops the anime eyes, his style will became different and you may even not be able to reckognize his art anymore. It's more like using rasters, like Soap Comity does: her art would still hold it's basic characteristics if she dropped rasters.
Besides, not that Jex was talking about style while you're talking about stylistic element. With the wording you used, it seems that you're disagreeing with Jex more than me. When I talk about technique, it can be understood as a stylistic element as well. Sorry, but it sounds as if you're disagreeing with me solely for the sake of disagreeing with me.

It was as if the entire animal kingdom ran wild on Shelter Island last week. Luckily McGumbus had things under control.
Moving Violation
After a woman took her husband's Porsche out for a spin and subsequently drove the car into the bay in East Hampton near Lazy Point, sinking it. Police responded to a scene that included the sunken Porsche and the screaming driver. After she was rescued, she allegedly told police that she'd deliberately accelerated the Porsche while driving toward a ramp that lead into the bay. She was charged with drinking and driving. No word from the husband about her driving his cars in the future.
Moving Violation, Too
A 64-year-old woman was arrested last week after she was caught driving a black Jaguar in the middle of the road. Police found her in an intoxicated state and she failed all field sobriety tests. The Jaguar was impounded. Maybe it sits next to a wet Porsche?
All Terrain Vehicles
A house watcher in East Hampton called police when she spotted men driving ATVs on the property of the home she was watching. Police arrived and the woman told police that she would not press charges but would find out if the owners of the home would want to. The ATV drivers protested that notion, stating that their vehicles were "All Terrain." And "we take that literally," they said.
Shelter Island
Four kangaroos, three African zebras, one elephant, four Bengal tigers and two male lions escaped the Shelter Island Zoo last week after protesters for the Shelter Island Organization of Animal Rights Activists deliberately let them loose. An estimated $27,000 in damage to private property resulted after an elephant sat on and crushed a 2013 Fiat. The animals were rounded up, thankfully, by Old Man McGumbus, 103 years old, Captain of the Shelter Island Rugby team and former World War II chemical warfare specialist.
McGumbus, using a powerful sleeping agent, cleverly spread the chemical through Shelter Island's water supply, thus putting nearly every living thing on Shelter Island to sleep.
McGumbus then hogtied all of the animals and brought them back to the zoo before the island woke up.
"I got the idea from when we sacked the Nazi-occupied island of Osikapackawaka in 1949, except back then, we just poisoned the water."
Saltwater System
A saltwater pool system was stolen from a home in Water Mill. Police are on the case, but in the meantime they advised the homeowner to jump into the ocean.

The versatility of the Oyster sample cell for the Specac Pearl FT-IR liquid transmission cell allows a wide range of samples to be analyzed quickly and easily. The Lift and Tilt mechanism of the Oyster cell allows for the top of the cell assembly to be lifted and tilted to one side allow for easy sample changes and cleaning. The Oyster is ideal for handling highly viscous samples such as oils and greases. For volatile samples, sample injection through an access port at the top of the Oyster cell allows for easy sample introduction. Viewing windows located at the top and bottom of the Oyster cell allow the user to view the sample and ensure no bubbles are trapped.
A complete Oyster cell is comprised of a separate top and bottom window assembly which are brought together to create a defined and repeatable path length. The top window assembly of the Oyster cell is placed as a precision fit over the bottom window assembly. The complete Oyster cell sits horizontally within the sliding tray of the Pearl optical unit. The top window assembly for a particular window material is common to all complete Oyster cells.The bottom window assembly can be varied with the common top assembly of a particular window material to vary Oyster cell path length and window orientation (parallel or wedged). The wedge angle is set for the bottom window assembly only.

In Mountain Lion, many of the day-to-day apps like Preview, TextEdit have been upgraded with some very useful features. (For instance, you can now insert a page into a PDF document using your scanner in Preview - see here, and pinch the trackpad for zooming in on to a document - see here). However, as far as I understand, these apps are free, and features like these are features of the app themselves, not the OS.
Is there anyway in which I can replace/upgrade individual apps in Lion, without having to install it as a whole (preferably as a dual-boot config!) ?

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Lady Gaga vowed to quit pop music rather than compromise, detailing a difficult year that included an underperforming new album during her much-anticipated keynote session at South By Southwest on Friday.
Dressed in a gown made of plastic sheeting and wearing blond dreadlocks, Gaga spent an hour in a wide-ranging question-and-answer session that shed some light on obstacles that included hip surgery, a split from manager Troy Carter and widespread questions about her popularity.
"I refuse to compromise and allow my talents to be monetized to the point that I don't want to be here anymore," she said. "I will stop, I will quit, I will retire from the commercial market if I have to do something other than be myself because if I can't be myself in this moment than everything I have said to my friends since the beginning will be a total lie. Then what? I'll be myself until I have to make money to sustain a luxurious lifestyle, and then I change, right? No, I'll be myself till they (expletive) close the coffin so that you can all be yourselves."
The 27-year-old singer briefly discussed her 2013 tour-canceling hip surgery — she was in a wheelchair for four months and has three screws in her hip — and her messages to fans regarding difficulties she's had with the release of "ARTPOP," which has only sold 673,773 units since its November release, according to Nielsen SoundScan. (In 2011, Gaga's "Born This Way" sold 1.1 million copies in its first week; 660,000 copies were sold regularly, and the rest through a 99 cents deal with Amazon).
She reached a low point, she said, when those around her began to encourage her to abandon her instincts and go for a less polarizing image.
"That's the thing that poisoned me … (people saying) 'We want you to be beautiful' over and over and over in my head until I just wanted to look ugly all the time because I'm rebellious," Lady Gaga said. "Don't tell me not to do anything because it's going to happen. That really crushed me. I've won Grammys now. I've written albums. I've toured the world four times. You're telling me to be beautiful? That's what this is all about? Is it all about tits and a–? That's so sad."
While Gaga is known for her odd looks — including dressing in drag and wearing false teeth — she's also been known to shed her clothing onstage; at the MTV Video Music Awards last year, she stripped down to a seashell bra top and a thong during her performance.
Gaga's rebellious inclination was on display Thursday night during a corporate-sponsored concert at Stubb's BBQ where she invited friend and performance artist Millie Brown to vomit paint on her during the song "Swine."
"It was just exciting to see people talk about performance art on the Internet and debating whether it's art or not," she said.

The end of "Toy Story 3," which we won't give away, was brilliant and bittersweet – and not just because of the rush of emotions it elicited.
The final scene marked a perfect cap to the movie series – yet it also cleverly laid the groundwork for even more sequels.
Hollywood, of course, has never had a problem with beating a good thing to death, even at the risk of marring memories a great franchise.
The studio execs are going to new lengths these days to squeeze more movies out of source material – which makes it seem like they're trying to squeeze more out of our wallets.
The wizards at Warner Bros. turned the final installment of the "Harry Potter" book series into two movies. Studio chief Alan Horn said last week he prodded author J.K. Rowling to pen just one more book: "I even had a title: 'Harry Potter and the Golden Years,' " Horn said. He was joking – we hope.
Guillermo Del Toro had to bow out of directing a planned two-part version of "The Hobbit" because of scheduling issues. Many fans are praying director Peter Jackson – who managed to jam J.R.R. Tolkien's epic "Lord of the Rings" trilogy in a mere three films – will helm the planned Bilbo Baggins double header, even if two flicks might be stretching things a bit for the title hobbit.
Meanwhile, "Avatar," already the biggest moneymaker of its time, is headed back to theaters next month with eight minutes of never-before-seen footage. That seems like overkill for a movie that defied the odds to live up to years of hype, and already has set a record for sales of Blu-Ray DVDs – the place where you'd expect to find gimmicks like deleted scenes.
Director James Cameron says the "Avatar" re-release is aimed at folks who haven't seen the flick (which, after $2.7 billion in ticket sales worldwide, probably amounts to three people), and those clamoring for more time in Pandora.
More time – a chance to relive the magic of a great movie in a sequel or new cut – is what draws us back. But potential disappointment can sometimes diminish the memories of the earlier works.
Still, we're hopeful the final two "Potter" movies will be as strong as the first six. Whoever makes "The Hobbit" duo will have "Lord of the Rings" to live up to – especially if Peter Jackson winds up competing against his own legend.
By rereleasing "Avatar" less than a year after its debut, Cameron is taking a gamble on alienating fans and possibly dampening interest in his planned sequel.
This month brought reports – later debunked – that plans have been solidified for a fifth "Indiana Jones" flick. We'll confess to mixed emotions about any Indy return. The third film gave us a wonderful, riding-off-into-the-sunset ending. But you almost want to see a strong, new film to make up for the lackluster fourth installment, even knowing there's a chance we could be in for a cringe-fest.
There were conflicting reports this week on whether there will be a "Toy Story 4." As tempting as it might be for the folks at Pixar to bring back Woody and the gang for more full-length adventures, we're hoping they'll leave us with that unforgettable ending – a scene that spoke to the enduring power of happy memories and the importance of moving on.
Anything else would mean they're just toying with us.

CHICAGO – As busy as Donald Cerrone likes to be, he could find himself in a bit of a pickle after Saturday night.
Cerrone (19-4 MMA, 6-1 UFC) takes on Anthony Pettis (15-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) in a pivotal lightweight bout at UFC on FOX 6 that most believe will determine the next top contender for the title.
But current 155-pound champion Benson Henderson already has his next title defense lined up. It'll come in April against former Strikeforce champ Gilbert Melendez. That means if "Cowboy" beats Pettis on Saturday and does indeed become next in line for that coveted crack at a UFC belt, he'll be faced with the temptation of sitting on the sidelines to wait until the Henderson-Melendez winner is ready.
For a man who fought five times during the 2011 calendar year and six times over a span of 379 days if you count his final WEC fight, that type of layoff could be excruciating.
And so Cerrone really doesn't know what he'll do if he gets his hand raised Saturday in Chicago and the UFC brass declares him top contender.
"I was talking to my team about that today," Cerrone on Wednesday told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) following a workout in Chicago. "I said, 'You think they'd get mad if I took one at 170 (pounds) or something, just trying to fill one in there?' They said, 'No, you're not gonna do that.' So I don't know. I'd gladly take (a fight before the title shot) – but I don't know how it will work out."
It all becomes moot, of course, should Pettis get the victory in their main-card fight, which airs on FOX following prelims on FX and Facebook. And that's part of why Cerrone is more than a little amped up for this fight.
It's a bout that fans of the lightweight division have been clamoring for for years, ever since the two were in the WEC. While there, Cerrone had three shots at the lightweight title. He came up short each time. The first was against Jamie Varner and was a controversial split decision that went to the judges early after Varner was hit with an illegal knee in the fifth round and couldn't continue. And twice, he had shots at Henderson and came up short.
Eventually, of course, Pettis burst onto the scene and captured the MMA world's full attention with his "Showtime" kick off the cage in his win over Henderson to become the WEC's final lightweight champ.
Cerrone said he's had his eye on Pettis since their time in the WEC, but things never quite worked out till now.
"Our managers were trying to work it out back in the WEC days," he said. "And when he came (to the UFC) to fight Clay (Guida), I was trying to rally for that fight. The Melvin (Guillard) fight, I was supposed to fight him there, but his shoulder got hurt. There was just a lot of spots along the way it was supposed to happen and it just never happened. Was it because of him ducking me? That could just be me talking s—. With him being injured, it's just the way it is. But now here we are."
Here we are indeed in a fight that is one of the most competitive on Saturday's card. Pettis has been out for nearly a year. His most recent win was a TKO of Joe Lauzon at UFC 144 this past February that started with a head kick. It was a return of the flash that he had on display in his WEC 53 fight against Henderson – a flash that failed to come out in a loss to Guida in June 2011 in his UFC debut, and again a few months later in a split-decision win over Jeremy Stephens.
Cerrone hopes the Pettis who comes to fight on Saturday is the highly regarded one, the "Showtime" version. That's the one he wants to beat, and that's the one that had fans thinking "Fight of the Night" the moment the fight was announced.
But though Cerrone is a known bonus hawk who has six extra checks in his seven UFC fights alone, he won't let the expectations for something like that influence how he fights. Instead, he believes his style just lends itself to getting a little more bank.
"I'm going to go out there and fight my ass off. That's just what I do," he said. "The pressure and the hype of a fight doesn't matter to me. Me getting a 'W' and going out there and fighting the style I do, it's an exciting style. I just go in your face and nonstop. As far as living up to the hype, I hope Anthony lives up to the hype. I plan on going out there with everything I've got and saving nothing."

The only reason the white Persian cat, described as "tame and lovable," survived was because nearby berry pickers in Richmond heard his wailing.
Somebody had left the cat in a carrier off Shell Road across from the Richmond Nature Park — to die or fend for itself. Another pet carrier was empty.
It's not clear how long the cat, since named Coconut, was there, but he was dehydrated and starving when his rescuers found him. He was sitting in his own urine and feces, which created an abscess that has required surgery.
A month later, Coconut is still recovering.
The incident — and others like it, particularly problems created by abandoned rabbits — has spurred the City of Richmond to consider amending its bylaws to prohibit dumping animals in the wild.
Richmond is possibly the first B.C. community to take action against pet dumping, which is welcome news to Richmond Animal Protection Society executive director Carol Reichart.
While people can be convicted for dumping pets under the province's Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, it rarely happens, she noted.
Convictions require substantial evidence and time.
Reichart said the municipal bylaw — which would likely give the city the power to levy fines — would act as a deterrent.
She noted the city has already banned the sale of puppies and rabbits in pet stores.
"They are very good about trying to get the problem solved," said Reichart.
The city has seen a spate of dumpings recently.
A few weeks ago, a teacup Yorkie with an improperly-healed broken leg was left in a box in a hotel lobby in downtown Richmond.
The dog, now named Mouse, has needed major surgery.
On Tuesday, Reichart was dealing with a new case involving a cat and eight kittens left in a remote industrial area near No. 8 Road and Blundell.
The mother and kittens are living in a pile of big concrete blocks that workers have promised not to move until Reichart can trap and move the cats.
The mother cat was likely dumped because she was pregnant, she said.
City of Richmond spokesman Ted Townsend said people releasing their pets into the wild, parks and farmland is a "huge" ongoing problem.
He said Richmond is examining amendments to the animal control bylaw that would not only prohibit releasing animals to the wild, but ban feeding animals in the wild as well.
City staff are hoping to have amendments ready to bring to council to consider some time this fall, said Townsend.
Marcie Moriarty, the SPCA's manager of cruelty investigations, said the agency does not have any pet-dumping statistics but said it's "absolutely" a problem in the province.
News reports attest to that.
Two months ago, a German shepherd was left for dead in a dumpster in Kitsilano in Vancouver.
In January, there was a rash of cats dumped in Clearwater in the Interior, including an orange tabby found taped to the inside of a cardboard box at the end of a driveway.
In July, rabbits were dumped in Sooke on Vancouver Island.
And in the summer of 2011, kittens were dumped in a garbage can in Nanaimo.
Not only is abandoning domestic animals in the wild cruel, when they do survive, as can be the case with rabbits, it can create an overpopulation problem, said Moriarty.
She said she wasn't aware of a B.C. community that specifically prohibits abandoning or dumping pets into the wild.
Moriarty said she supports Richmond's effort to consider amending its bylaws because she agreed it's difficult to get convictions under the provincial law.
Vancouver has no specific measure banning pet dumping, but does ban depositing food or grain in its parks. An offence has a fine of $50 to $2,000.
Surrey does not have a bylaw banning pet dumping, relying instead on the SPCA to handle animal cruelty investigations.

CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez can take the oath of office for his next term before the Supreme Court at a later date if the ailing leader isn't fit to be sworn in next week, his vice-president said.
Vice-President Nicolas Maduro sent the strongest signal yet that the government may seek to postpone Chavez's inauguration as the 58-year-old president fights a severe respiratory infection more than three weeks after undergoing cancer surgery in Cuba.
Maduro's position in a televised interview on Friday night generated new friction between the government and opposition over the swearing-in, which the constitution says should occur Thursday before the National Assembly. Some opposition leaders have argued that if Chavez doesn't make it back to Caracas by that date, the president of the National Assembly should take over as interim president.
Such brewing disagreements were expected to be aired on Saturday as the National Assembly, which is controlled by a pro-Chavez majority, prepared to convene to choose its president and other legislative leaders.
Maduro's comments shed more light on potential scenarios. If the government succeeds in delaying the swearing-in and Chavez's condition improves, the president and his allies could have more time to plan an orderly transition and prepare for a new presidential election. If Chavez dies or is declared incapacitated, the constitution says that a new election should be called and held within 30 days.
The National Assembly president chosen on Saturday could end up being the country's interim president under some circumstances. Anyone elected by the Chavez-dominated legislature is expected to remain loyal to the president.
But Information Minister Ernesto Villegas reiterated on Saturday that Chavez is still in office, saying in comments reported by the state news agency that "Chavez has won a thousand battles and has reappeared when no one expected."
Speaking on television, Maduro held up a small blue copy of the constitution and read aloud passages as he argued that opponents were using erroneous interpretations to try to drive Chavez from power.
"They should respect our constitution," the vice-president said. "The formality of his swearing-in can be resolved before the Supreme Court of Justice, at the time (the court) deems, in co-ordination with the head of state, Commander Hugo Chavez."
Maduro echoed other Chavez allies in suggesting the inauguration date is not a firm deadline, and that the president should be given more time to recover from his cancer surgery if needed.
"Maduro's comments are not surprising. The government holds all the cards in the current situation, particularly given the compassion for Chavez's serious illness. It has interpreted the constitution loosely, to its own political advantage," said Michael Shifter, president of the Inter-American Dialogue think-tank in Washington. "In this way Maduro is able to buy some time, assert his authority and rally support within Chavismo. He puts the opposition on notice and throws it off balance."
Chavez was re-elected in October to another six-year term, and two months later announced that his pelvic cancer had returned. Chavez said before the operation that if his illness prevented him from remaining president, Maduro should be his party's candidate to replace him in a new election.
Maduro reiterated on Friday that the president is fighting a "complex" battle for his health but expressed hope that eventually, "we'll see him and we'll hear him."
"He has a right to rest and tranquility, and to recuperate," Maduro said. "The president right now is the exercising president. He has his government formed."
Maduro read a portion of the constitution detailing procedures for declaring an "absolute absence" of the president, which would trigger a new election within 30 days, and declared that "none of these grounds can be raised by the Venezuelan opposition."
The Venezuelan Constitution says the presidential oath should be taken Jan. 10 before the National Assembly. It also says that if the president is unable to be sworn in before the Assembly, he may take the oath before the Supreme Court, and some legal experts have noted that the sentence mentioning the court does not mention a date.
Others disagree. Ruben Ortiz, a lawyer and opposition supporter, argued that the inauguration date can't be postponed.
If Chavez is not in Caracas to be sworn in on Thursday, Ortiz said in a phone interview, "the president of the National Assembly should take charge." He added that "there is a formal separation between one term and the other."
Shifter said the opposition is on the defensive, with its only tactic being to insist that Jan. 10 is the established date.
"Chavez controls all the key institutions, and it's doubtful that most Venezuelans will get too upset about defying what seems a fairly minor constitutional provision," Shifter said. "Attacking the government because it has no objection to the Supreme Court swearing in Chavez after Jan. 10 is not exactly a winning political strategy for the opposition."
A delay also serves the government's purposes, Shifter said. "The government wants more time, whether to see if Chavez gets better, or to consolidate their ranks and further splinter and demoralize the opposition."
Chavez hasn't spoken publicly or been seen since his Dec. 11 operation. The government revealed this week that Chavez is fighting a severe lung infection and receiving treatment for "respiratory deficiency."
That account raised the possibility that he might be breathing with the assistance of a machine. But the government did not address that question or details of the president's treatment, and independent medical experts consulted by The Associated Press said the statements indicated a potentially dangerous turn in Chavez's condition, but said it's unclear whether he is attached to a ventilator.
Chavez has undergone four cancer-related surgeries since June 2011 for an undisclosed type of pelvic cancer. He also has undergone chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

Who is she?
Anna-liisa is a rather unusual woman with a distinctive personality. This may be because she is quite reserved and enjoys cultivating an air of mystery, or perhaps because she lives her life without necessarily referring to the "user manual" and cares little for fashion or tradition... This enigmatic woman is particularly emotional however, although she doesn´t always let it show on the outside. She is very thoughtful, cerebral and introspective, intellectual even (especially if she was born in July, or on the 7th, 16th or 25th of the month)... she is highly active and mobile and wants to be everywhere at once (especially if she was born on the 5th, 14th or 23rd of the month, or in May). An inquisitive and sociable individual, she is impulsive and can lack patience at times, although she is generally easy-going and adaptable. Nevertheless, deep down, she fosters a certain amount anxiety and mistrust and can easily become withdrawn in the event of an emotional shock. As a child she is a friendly and endearing little girl who is very affectionate and a bit of a fidget. However, because she is also highly receptive and acutely intuitive, Anna-liisa is extremely sensitive to parental disharmony, which can cause her to become introverted, escaping into the sanctuary of dreams, or even school work, whilst repressing her sensitivity. On the same note, separation from the family home should be avoided during early childhood as this could destroy some of her freshness and spontaneity. It would be wise to keep an eye on the choices that she makes and she will probably need a little gentle guidance.
What does she like?
Above all, Anna-liisa seeks the company of others and appears pleasant and gentle, helpful and accommodating. She has a deep understanding of friendship and is someone who can be confided in as well as a great listener, but best of all, she´s always there when you need her most. Her love life is just as important as her social life, and she will usually deploy the same effort in a romantic relationship as she does in friendship: she will be passionate, but always tactful; she is also capable of great tenderness and is well suited to motherhood, which is fundamental for her.

What does she do?
Her ambitions for her personal life are highly likely to take priority over her career; however she could be interested by occupations related to sales, tourism or travel ..., those involving counselling or teaching - often working with children..., or a career in advertising, marketing, one of the exact sciences or a technical specialization.

Feds: Cartel-linked man arrested on NM dance floor
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) -- Federal officials say a suspected drug trafficker affiliated with the deadly Sinaloa Cartel couldn't dance his troubles away.
Omar Cota was taken into custody early Friday off a dance floor at Route 66 Casino's Club Envy in New Mexico. Officials say federal agents and police in Laguna arrested the 28-year-old after receiving a tip that he liked to go to the casino.
The U.S. Marshals Service says Cota had an outstanding federal arrest warrant for drug trafficking and had eluded federal agents since February 2012.
Authorities say agents found a large amount of cash and suspected drugs with Cota, who is believed to be a member of the Brew Town gang.
It was unclear if Cota had an attorney.

Just in time for Independence Day, the foundations of the Common Core initiative are showing some cracks.
Common Core is an effort to establish national standards and tests to define what every child in public school will learn. It has been heavily incentivized by the Obama Administration and is an unprecedented federal overreach into local school policy. But recent moves in several states across the country could mean that curriculum freedom remains alive and well.
On Monday, Oklahoma superintendent of education Janet Barresi announced that the Sooner State would be pulling out of the Common Core testing consortia. Barresi told the Tulsa World that because of myriad technical problems with the assessments and higher anticipated costs, "If we move ahead with this, we are going to be asking the state to drink a milkshake using a cocktail straw."
Oklahoma's withdrawal follows Alabama, which also withdrew from the common assessments earlier this year. Both states still plan to follow the Common Core standards but will be assessing how students perform on those standards with tests they have chosen.
Some states have gone a step further to ensure educational freedom. Indiana Governor Mike Pence (R) has paused implementation of Common Core for the next year, allowing the state to assess the cost to taxpayers and affording the Indiana Department of Education and a legislative study committee the opportunity to determine whether Common Core standards are superior to Indiana's existing standards.
Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett (R) has likewise hit the pause button on Common Core standards implementation, allowing time for the standards to be approved by the legislative education committees and the state's Regulatory Review Commission. And in Michigan, Governor Rick Snyder (R) signed a budget prohibiting any new state funds from being expended on Common Core implementation.
Other states might reconsider their Common Core involvement. Early adopters such as New York and Kentucky are now experiencing implementation problems. In North Carolina, the state board of education has decided to review the standards over the next few months. Lieutenant Governor and state board of education member Dan Forest worries that "in the rush to roll out Common Core, I am not convinced the proper due diligence has been conducted to properly budget for this monumental expenditure for our state."
Utah, Colorado, South Carolina, and Kansas have had heated debates about the merits of Common Core and the certain loss of educational autonomy associated with the effort. At a minimum, they would be wise to follow the lead of Indiana and "pause" implementation to determine the costs and quality. Better still, they should pull out completely from the Common Core national standards and work to strengthen and improve their own state standards.
The Founders placed the important job of educating America's children with states, localities, and, most critically, parents. The Constitution does not contain the word education, even though its architects believed in its supreme importance. "I look to the diffusion of light and education as the resource to be relied on for ameliorating the condition, promoting the virtue, and advancing the happiness of man," wrote Thomas Jefferson. The Founders would have likely seen the prospect of a national curriculum as a monumental government overreach.
As we celebrate our Independence this week, it's a good time to recommit to restoring the educational freedom our Founders envisioned.

Healthy People 2020
Healthy People is a program of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that sets health objectives for the nation for a ten-year period. The current set of objectives, launched in December 2010, is referred to as Healthy People 2020 (hp2020).
The Department actively sought input from the public as well as the numerous non-profit organizations dedicated to improving the Nation's health. They developed a Healthy People Consortium (of which NCPPA is a member) that represents a diverse, motivated and dedicated group of agencies and organizations committed to working together to help achieve Healthy People 2020's health goals and objectives for the nation.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services requested public comments in late 2009 on the draft set of proposed objectives for HP2020. Individuals and organizations were invited to comment on the proposed objectives and topic areas and to suggest additional objectives and topic areas that they felt might be missing from the draft set. NCPPA sent out several notifications regarding the request for comments on the Physical Activity objectives as well as offering comments ourselves. Below you can find a few sets of comments including our own.
