Mobil 1 Team News and Notes of Interest
• Sam Hornish Jr., driver of the Penske Racing No. 77 Mobil 1 Dodge Charger, considers Phoenix International Raceway to be a special track in his racing career. The "Jewel of the Desert" is the site of Hornish's first IndyCar Series win (3/18/01), his NASCAR Cup Series debut (11/11/07), his first race in the NASCAR Nationwide Series (11/11/06) and his first Cup Series top-10 finish (4/18/09).
• Hornish has four top-15 finishes, including three top-10 results, this season in short-track competition. Hornish earned his first top-10 finish of the year with a ninth-place effort at Phoenix International Raceway and he has two top-10 finishes at Richmond International Raceway.
• Fans can now follow Sam Hornish Jr. on Twitter at www.twitter.com/SamHornish. Fans can get a glimpse inside his everyday life while keeping up-to-date on the latest news for the No. 77 team.
Sam Hornish Jr. on Phoenix International Raceway
"There is something special about Phoenix International Raceway because it is a track where I have experienced many of my firsts in racing. I would've never thought that my first top-10 in Cup Series competition would come on a short track, but the April race was very special to me and the entire No. 77 team.
"Racing at Phoenix International Raceway is always exciting for drivers and fans alike. Unlike most other race tracks, Phoenix is completely different at both ends. A lot of times you have to compromise on one end of the track to make your car do what you want it to do on the other end. Basically, you have to focus all weekend on which part of the track is the fastest."
Crew Chief Travis Geisler on Phoenix International Raceway
"This weekend's race at Phoenix International Raceway is a really good opportunity for the Mobil 1 Dodge to get back on track. We have had some very good runs on short tracks this season, including the first race at Phoenix earlier this year. It is a challenge to balance the car at the one-mile oval because of the difference in the corners. Turns 1 and 2 are tighter with more banking than turns 3 and 4, which are more flat, sweeping corners."

Dave D'Onofrio's Sox Beat: The Granite State GM should take a bowDAVE D'ONOFRIO
September 21. 2013 11:09PM
BOSTON --- Ben Cherington managed to stay mostly dry, avoiding the spray of Korbel and Bud Light - and soaking in the moment, instead. While the Red Sox players and some of his staff doused each other in bubbly and beer to celebrate their worst-to-first achievement of becoming American League East champions, the general manager sat in the home dugout with his wife and watched the party as it spilled out of the clubhouse and back onto the infield.
"It's just satisfying to be part of something that's bigger, and that's good. That's what we wanted to do," said the Granite Stater. "I wanted to be part of something special. This is a really important step toward accomplishing something special."
He reiterated that several times over the course of the next few minutes, an acknowledgement of the degree to which the goals have changed since this club first gathered in Fort Myers, Fla., back in February. Then this season was simply about getting past last year's embarrassing disaster. Now the division doesn't seem like enough. Owners of the best record in the American League with a week to go in the regular season, it's now about winning a World Series.
It's a remarkable turnaround, the clincher coming courtesy of the Sox' 94th win - which was already 25 more than they had in 2012, and which speaks to the contributions made by so many along the way, from the clubhouse personnel, to the scouts, to the front office, all the way up to ownership. Everything and everyone has come together for the Sox throughout the organization this season, from top to bottom, and so as eager as Cherington was to point out that the division crown is just a first step, he was equally reluctant to take personal credit for the accomplishment.
But there should be no mistake: These are HIS Red Sox.
This is his team. This is built on his vision. This speedy renaissance is the product of his ability to execute the plan he laid out last fall by incorporating lessons learned during a rough rookie season in the GM role that he'd coveted growing up as a kid in Meriden, and had been groomed to assume. And, for those reasons, this is a team of which New Hampshire can be particularly proud.
Soon after last year's merciful end, Cherington set out to move forward with an emphasis on culture, and chemistry, and character - all of which forged the type of buy-in and belief that could allow the club's inherent talent to shine through. The first step there was hiring John Farrell - the manager they poached from the Blue Jays in exchange for infielder Mike Aviles, who Toronto then traded to Cleveland for Esmil Rogers, who, coincidentally, was the pitcher the Sox beat in Friday's clincher - but the attitude adjustment didn't stop there.
Cherington saw fit to overpay for veterans Jonny Gomes and David Ross. He made aggressive offers to Shane Victorino, Ryan Dempster and Mike Napoli. All of them came with reputations for being guys you'd want in your clubhouse. And those were the types of guys Cherington wanted. He targeted them. He prioritized them.
And - maybe most importantly - he convinced them that the Sox were still a first-rate organization.
"We tried to find guys that we felt were the right fit for the team in the roles we needed and the holes we had to fill - that fit the team, the park, the league, et cetera - and who wanted to be in Boston, that were attracted to being a part of this," Cherington said. "We just wanted guys who wanted to be here and especially who were attracted by the opportunity.
"Coming off a year like we had, it was a leap of faith by some of those guys, and I think we all have gratitude and respect."
The GM himself thought all along that his team had a chance to compete. He saw parity across the AL East, and, after more than a decade in the organization, his intimate knowledge of its foundation and its farm system, he had hoped that they weren't as deeply buried as a 69-93 record on the heels of baseball's worst-ever September collapse might've made it seem.
They certainly needed to change course, and he knew that. But he never bought into the notion that he was at the helm of a sinking ship.
"I think at the end of last year, as tough a year as it was, we all still felt very optimistic and confident about the future," he said. "We had a lot of good things in place, including a great ownership group, and players, and young talent in the system, and scouting, and all these things that you need to be successful. Of course, based on how painful a year it was last year, it was hard for people to see that - but we felt that then.
"We just had to put the team together, keep pushing, and get the thing back going in the right direction. I'm happy for a lot of people that were here last year, went through a tough time, and are still here - including some of the players - to have this moment tonight, and hopefully it's the start of a lot more this fall."
Friday's moment in some ways epitomized this Sox club: It was fun, it was shared together, it was about taking care of business, and it was about enjoying themselves and the game. That's just the type of team Cherington set out to build last autumn. "It's a lot of guys for whom baseball is important, and winning is important, and they take it personally," he said. "They understand that when you come together and win as a team, it's a feeling like nothing else."
Collectively they've been motivated since the early days of spring training, Cherington said, driven partially by the desire to put last year behind them, and partially by the chance to do something special.
They've already succeeded in doing the first. And the second, too - although the Red Sox believe the most special things still lie ahead. And that they'll have a few more opportunities to douse their general manager in alcohol.
"The year has been obviously more enjoyable," Cherington said. "It's a great group of guys that love to play together, love to prepare and win. When you're around that, it's more fun. Just proud of this group - but we're not done."

wesball necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 830 diseños de 207 diseñadores freelance.
OddBall Animation
We're a small team of artists and filmmakers that do cg animation, motion graphics, and a bit of visual effects work. We appreciate good design. We think in terms of story. And we love collaborating with great talent.
We're a bunch of young guys with awards in filmmaking and animation. All of us in the company are artists. We like to say we're able to do a lot with a little. We often do things a little differently, and like the idea of standing outside the norm.
Our branding has to appeal to the people who have high-end animation needs. These people work for ad agencies, movie and television studios, production companies and post-production shops. They are roughly 32-45, but have the mid-twenties demographic on the brain. Our branding needs to reflect what is modern in design but have enough classic elegance to persist. We want our clients to see us as a top-of-the-line creative team, technically slick and well-put-together but also organic and daring. We know that's a lot to ask for, but that's what good style is.
We need a logo that has personality. I needs to work in a variety of environments. It shouldn't be limited to being over black, white or another solid color. A good logo is always reversible. We are open to anything, but our tastes skew to the clean, elegant, but bold and modern (dare we say - trendy.)
The key concepts that should be incorporated visually are movement, creativity and elegance. Our company name might initially make you think of something goofy - but to us it refers to the fact that we can offer a different perspective on a project. Sure, a point of view that might be odd - but not exactly comedic. That being said, we're open to something clever, just not laughable.
This needs to work as a static logo for print & web, but it should also lend itself to an animated version (we'll do that part) for motion picture and television.

Always-on, high-speed connectivity is the ticket to doing awesome stuff in technology today.
But in a continent like Africa, 'The Cloud' is something 'The Rain' falls out of.
And still, innovation in the technology realm has managed to flourish and even outpace the more developed world.
We're talking about television services that use the DVBH standard to beam football matches and news into rural villages; social networks that were designed for exclusive use on mobile phone platforms; funds transfer and electronic payment systems that require nothing more than a SMS text message; insurance products that can be provisioned and procured from the most rudimentary mobile phones.
Outside of the 'never say die' innovation Africa employs there's a great deal the developed world can learn from the developing world, particularly when it comes to building practical solutions that solve real problems.
And with global growth being led by the developing world, these are lessons worth learning.

Shooting in Southern Humboldt Homeless Camp that was Raided Yesterday
Jack Belk
On 10-2-12 at about 10:25 P.M., Sheriff's Deputies were dispatched to a reported shooting on Redwood Drive just north of Redway. When deputies arrived, they located the victim who had been shot two times. The victim was identified as Daniel Mashburn, transient, age 46. Mashburn told deputies he had been walking in the area of Redwood Drive with his girlfriend when they were confronted by the suspect and an argument ensued. The argument escalated and the suspect drew a handgun and shot Mashburn two times. Afterwards the suspect, who Mashburn did not know, fled. Mashburn and his girlfriend provided deputies and California Highway Patrol Officers, who had arrived to assist, with a description of the suspect.
At about 11:00 P.M. a subject matching the description was located by the Highway Patrol. The subject was later positively identified as the suspect. The suspect was identified as Jack Belk, age 53, of Charlotte N.C. Deputies also located the firearm. What instigated the confrontation is still under investigation.
Belk was arrested and booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility for Attempted Murder. Bail is set at $500,000.
Mashburn is still hospitalized and listed in critical condition.
Anyone with information for the Sheriffs Office regarding this case or related criminal activity encouraged to call the Sheriffs Office at 707-445-7251 or the Sheriffs Office Crime Tip line at 707-268-2539.

Blessed Pope John XXIII published "Peace on Earth" on April 11, 1963, in direct response to the Cuban missile crisis, which threatened global thermonuclear war during the tense days of Oct. 16-28, 1962. The Holy See marked the upcoming 50th anniversary year of "Pacem in Terris" on Oct. 24 at the United Nations in New York. The Mission of the Holy See to the United Nations, along with two co-hosts, the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and Pax Romana, sponsored a symposium titled "The Encyclical Pacem in Terris: Its Fiftieth Anniversary and its Relevance to the 21st Century."
A great deal of attention has been paid to the focus on human rights, disarmament and the call to world community in "Peace on Earth." Archbishop Francis Chullikatt, Apostolic Nuncio to the United Nations, noted that Blessed Pope John's encyclical was addressed for the first time in papal history to "all men of good will." Many of the participants at the Holy See's symposium reminded us that in addition to goodwill, an economic system that is grounded in the common good is also indispensable to global peace.
Accordingly, of particular interest, and the source of some controversy, was the focus on global economic issues in "Peace on Earth." Joe Holland, president of the Pacem in Terris Global Leadership Initiative and professor of philosophy and religion at St. Thomas University in Miami Gardens, Fla., addressed what "Peace on Earth" recounted as the errors of "liberal capitalism" and "scientific socialism" that resulted from the individualism of Adam Smith and the materialism of Karl Marx. Holland argued that in "Peace on Earth" Pope John breaks new ground when he "recognizes that a new global era has emerged for the human family with a new global economy. In response, he calls for global governance [a 'worldwide public authority' commensurate in scale with the global economy] directing the global economy to the global common good."
Likewise, Angus Sibley, author of "The 'Poisoned Spring' of Economic Libertarianism," lamented the influence of the Austrian School economists Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich von Hayek, which led to Mises' twin errors that "nothing is left of government if one denies the law of the market" and "liberty is always freedom from government." To the assertion that free-market capitalism is based on the "laws of nature," Sibley said that Pope John denounces this type of error. "Many people," Pope Jo hn says, "think that the laws that govern man's relations with the state are the same as those which regulate the blind, elemental forces of the universe." On the contrary, he says, politics and economics must observe those divine laws that "clearly indicate how a man must behave towards his fellows in society."
Sibley believes that Pope John's call for an international public authority must "promote the worldwide common good in matters of economics, society, politics and culture." In his remarks, Archbishop Chullikatt focused on the encyclical's groundbreaking call for an "international public authority," founded on a "new juridical order" that could most effectively bring peace to a troubled international order. Clearly, church teaching holds that subsidiarity is a good governance principle that at times requires larger entities to solve problems that cannot be solved at the local, or in this case, the national level.

Homeless man arrested after Farmington Subway was robbed ThursdayBy John Quinn
Union Leader Correspodent
March 09. 2013 11:36AM
FARMINGTON – Based on information provided by area residents, police arrested a transient in Rochester Friday who allegedly robbed the local Subway the day before.
Jeffrey Smith, 23, who is homeless, was charged with robbery after he allegedly took an undisclosed amount of money from the downtown sandwich shop at 457 Main St. around lunchtime.
He did not appear to be armed, according to police. Around 4:30 p.m. Friday, members of Farmington and Rochester police arrested Smith at an undisclosed relative's residence in Rochester.
Smith was held at the Strafford County House of Corrections in Dover on a probation violation after absconding from Drug Court. He is scheduled to be arraigned in 7th Circuit Court in Rochester Monday March at 11 a.m.
The department would like to thank all those who provided information that resulted in a speedy resolution of this case, according to police.

Any accolades that flow the way of the Bruins' fourth line players are always rare and well-deserved.
So it's with great pride that I reveal that readers of TheBruinsBlog.net this weekend voted Daniel Paille as the Bruin of the Week.
Who should be the Bruin of the Week?
- Daniel Paille (37%, 56 Votes)
- Rich Peverley (31%, 47 Votes)
- Tim Thomas (26%, 40 Votes)
- Joe Corvo (6%, 9 Votes)
Total Voters: 152
Paille scored three goals last week and posted a plus-3 rating, as he continued to get his game on track after suffering a mild concussion against Florida December 8. It's been a wild season thus far for Paille, who also suffered a broken nose after taking a shot to the face earlier this year. But Paille would rather be playing every night and dealing with ailments than sitting as a healthy scratch the way he was for much of the start of last season.
He now has six goals on the year after scoring just five last season. He likely won't match his career-high of 19 set back in 2007-08 with Buffalo. But he's well on his way to a double-digit goal season, which Boston is used to getting from its fourth-liners. Last season both Gregory Campbell and Shawn Thornton surpassed 10 goals.
When you talk about the Bruins' depth, the offensive output of their fourth line is Exhibit A to prove how tough they are to top in that department.

Calhoun High School football and lacrosse star Griffin Miller attends the athletes' after-school study hall daily before practice. No exceptions. He finishes 45 minutes of homework, grabs a late pass and dashes to practice, after which he sits down to two to three hours of studies at home. Taking a battery of Advanced Placement and Honors classes, the junior has a 98 average and is already committed to play at Dartmouth.
Ben Rabinowitz is Kennedy High School's 2014 valedictorian, with a 99 average and nine A.P. classes on his transcript, and he was a captain of the school's soccer team and an All-County honorable mention player. His coach, Jason Elias, insists that his players attend study hall, even Rabinowitz.
Mepham High School senior Chris Durkin's class schedule is also loaded with A.P. and Honors classes. Like Miller, he is a football/lacrosse star and attends the after-school study hall daily when competing. When Durkin arrives home, he showers, wolfs down dinner and gets right to his studies, he said. He has a 97 average and was recently selected as one of the "Golden 11," representing Nassau County's top 11 senior scholar-athletes in football.

CARSON, Calif. (Friday, July 13, 2012) – The LA Galaxy announced today that the club has traded goalkeeper Bill Gaudette to the New York Red Bulls in exchange for New York's second round pick in the 2014 MLS Supplemental Draft. The 30-year-old was signed by the Galaxy in February after impressing on a preseason trial with the club. He appeared in three regular season games for LA this season, recording a 0-2-1 record with a 1.33 goals against average.
Gaudette, who began his MLS career with the Columbus Crew in 2005, made his Galaxy debut in the 1-1 home draw with FC Dallas on April 28. He went on to start the losses to Seattle and New York, making a total of seven saves in his three appearances. In addition to those three games, Gaudette also played in LA's U.S. Open Cup Third Round game against the Carolina RailHawks and made a pair of appearances in the MLS Reserve League.
The Galaxy will be back in action on Saturday, July 14 when they take on the Portland Timbers at JELD-WEN Field. That game is scheduled to kick off at 8 p.m. and can be seen live on the NBC Sports Network. MATCH PREVIEW

"The general feeling that SkyOS gives is... Simply great! A lot of work done under the hood seems to be paying back with a solid, responsive operating system. It scales very nicely, opening up a lot of OpenGL demos and other applications at once doesn't seem to affect stability, however it is currently very resource hungry (600MB RAM usage and up isn't anything strange while using Firefox, Gaim and having a few more apps open). Let us not forget that this is a debug build. It is completely usable and boots blazingly fast (~15 seconds from GRUB to desktop) though." My take: The best change? The new versioning scheme. Really.

Twenty five years ago, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet Premier Mikhail Gorbachev met in Reykjavik, Iceland, and nearly agreed to eliminate their entire nuclear weapons arsenals. The summit foundered when the United States would not agree to research and development only of the Strategic Defense Initiative, without testing the system in space. Secretary of State George Schultz and others urged Reagan to accept the Soviet Union's historic concessions, but the advisor Richard Perle argued against any limitations on the initiative and prevailed. Although everyone left Reykjavik empty-handed, Gorbachev predicted, "This is the end of the cold war."
If only it had been. The cold war is alive and well in the defense budgets being discussed in Congress, particularly in the so-called supercommittee budget. Twenty years after the demise of the Soviet Union, and in a period of struggle with a poor economy, the United States is still spending exorbitant sums on cold-war nuclear weapons artifacts. As the price for the Republican votes needed to ratify the New Start treaty, Senator John Kyle, Republican of Arizona, demanded and received $85 billion to modernize the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
The administration is planning to spend $125 billion to build a new generation of delivery systems for strategic nuclear weapons over the triad of land, air and sea. This will include a new long-range bomber (possibly a drone capable of delivering a nuclear payload) and a new nuclear-capable cruise missile, 12 new ballistic missile submarines, a new intercontinental ballistic missile and updated Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missiles, plus $88 billion to build two major new nuclear facilities. While these are presented as 10-year budget numbers, the real costs will be much higher. No new weapons systems or defense facilities ever come in under budget.
These proposals go in exactly the wrong direction. Instead of increasing our spending on nuclear arsenals, we should be decreasing our spending, reducing our arsenals and re-evaluating the triad. The number of poor Americans is at an all-time high. Now is the time for the U.S. government to invest in people, not weapons.
Some are objecting to these expenditures. Senator Tom Coburn, Republican of Oklahoma, and, separately, the Cato Institute, a conservative public policy research organization, are both calling for modest cuts. Some are calling for much deeper cuts, including Republicans like George P. Schultz and Henry A. Kissinger, who argue that a world free of nuclear weapons is the only way to reduce the nuclear danger, particularly the risk of nuclear accident or terrorist use.
We have made some progress since Reykjavik. In 1986 the combined arsenals of the United States and the Soviet Union contained about 66,000 nuclear weapons; today there are 20,000, most of them held by the United States and Russia. China has fewer than 300 nuclear weapons. North Korea has six to 12.
Time is not on our side. Globalization creates many new avenues for proliferation. Given global climate change, the need for clean energy has led to a race in the Middle East to acquire nuclear energy. Many countries have announced their interest in or contracts to build nuclear power plants: Tunisia, Libya, Jordan, Egypt, Yemen, Bahrain and others.
Extending nuclear power to these places is a recipe for creating more countries like Pakistan—unstable states with poor control over their nuclear infrastructure. In such countires there is also potential for diversion of nuclear material and expertise for military use or to terrorist actors or private proliferation networks. This happened in Pakistan when A. Q. Khan, the father of the Pakistani nuclear program, sold nuclear designs, information and dual-use technology to North Korea, Libya, Iran and others. Today he is a free man in Pakistan. The Arab Spring and the nuclear disaster at Fukushima, Japan, have only highlighted the risks.
It is time to change our minds and our budget and put spending for the poor ahead of spending for nuclear weapons. As Mikhail Gorbachev noted recently, "Our efforts 25 years ago can be vindicated only when the nuclear bomb ends up beside the slave trader's manacles and the Great War's mustard gas in the museum of bygone savagery."

But he was so fully possessed with a strong conceit of the contrary, that he did not so much as hear his squire's outcry, nor was he sensible of what they were, although he was already very near them; far from that: "Stand, cowards," cried he as loud as he could; "stand your ground, ignoble creatures, and fly not basely from a single knight, who dares encounter you all!" At the same time, the wind rising, the mill-sails began to move, which when Don Quixote spied, "Base miscreants," cried he, "though you move more arms than the giant Briareus, you shall pay for your arrogance." He most devoutly recommended himself to his Lady Dulcinea, imploring her assistance in this perilous adventure; and so covering himself with his shield, and couching his lance, he rushed with Rozinante's utmost speed upon the first windmill he could come at, and running his lance into the sail, the wind whirled it about with such swiftness, that the rapidity of the motion presently broke the lance into shivers, and hurled away both knight and horse along with it, till down he fell, rolling a good way off in the field.

The eighth annual "Paddles Up Niagara," hosted by the Niagara River Greenway Commission at Beaver Island State Park, will take place along the southeastern shores of Grand Island on Saturday, July 27.
This signature, non-competitive 4.8-mile paddle begins at noon after a traditional Native American Departure Ceremony at 11:30 a.m. "in order for us to fully respect and enjoy the paddle," said Rob Belue, executive director, NRGC.
After participants point their paddles skyward, signifying peace and the commencement of a long journey in honor of Grand Island's ties to Native American culture, the paddle will begin from the Little Beaver Launch site in the park and will continue to the East River Marsh site, finishing at the paddles' starting location.
Paddles Up Niagara will feature a new celebrity kayak race that will pit local celebrities including Vice President of Empire State Development Sam Hoyt, New York State Sen. Tim Kennedy, New York State Assemblyman Sean Ryan, New York State Assemblyman John Ceretto, Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster, Director of Western District New York State Parks Mark Thomas and Niagara River Greenway Commission Chairman Greg Stevens against one another in a competitive paddle. Kicking off at 11 a.m., this novel event will premiere as an entertaining race to test the agility of local politicians and executive figures, while also showcasing the beauty the water has to offer to spectators of the competition.
Other events will begin before the canoe and kayak paddles, with a "Poker Run" kicking off the day's activities from 7 until 9 a.m., from East River Marsh around Strawberry Island. That is followed by the Paddle Fair at 8:30 a.m., where friends and family- paddlers and non-paddlers- can "Discover Grand Island," a subtheme for Paddles Up Niagara.
"Although the main focus of the day will be on the water, there will be plenty of other things to do on land for families both through our event and through the park itself," Belue said.
Additionally, visitors of the event can tour the historic River Lea House located within the park for a lunch fundraiser at 2:30 p.m. with a prepaid $14 donation.
Participants in any of the paddling events may use paddle-powered craft, including kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. There is no cost to participate in any of the day's events. However, standard park fees will apply.
Upon entering Beaver Island State Park, participants should take the first right toward the sledding hill, or Little Beaver, for parking and launching.
All on-water partakers are required to register and complete the waiver forms in order to participate. Boat crews must wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved personal flotation devices, and each participating canoe and kayak will be evaluated before the event to ensure the safety of every participant.
Pre-registration for paddling is not required, but for more information regarding the Niagara River Greenway Commission, or to receive or download registration forms for Paddles Up Niagara, visit www.niagaragreenway.org or call the NRGC office at 716-773-5361.

Do you need firewalls for each computer on the network? (like Zone Alarm Pro) I know you need anti virus for each, but what about firewalls? I did a search but didnt find what I needed.
Its smart to have Firewalls on all your boxes. Not to mention atleast a router with NAT
Routers built without NAT serve no protection.
DEFINITION:Network address translation(NAT) is used to remap IP #'s from one address range to another range of network addresses. For TCP and UDP, this also can include the port numbers. The IP#'s/port #'s are changed when a packet is going out through an interface and IP Filter matches it against a NAT rules.
Packets coming back in the same interface are remapped, as a matter of course, to their original address information.
DEFINITION: SmoothWall is a best-of-breed Internet firewall/router, designed to run on commodity Intel (or compatible) PCs, and to give an easy-to-use administration interface to those using it.
(suggestion)And speaking of configuration. Minimal amount of services you use on a XP comp, the less choices for the kiddies. I'll just share with you the registry entry I created over at www.blackviper.com (excellent resource by the way). I think the guy is a genus in my opinion.
It's not totally necessary if your router has a built-in firewall, but it is a good idea. Of course, if your firewall is not configured properly then it won't make much difference, because you're screwed anyway. Personally, I have a hardware firewall in my router and I don't run any other software firewalls on the individual computers. I used to use the free version of zone alarm but I got tired of having to click allow even though every time I would set a rule, it just wouldn't remember it. I would say if you want to put up a firewall on each computer, go for it, you will be a little more secure, as long as you configure it properly.
It's a practical step. Yet another layer of security can't be a bad thing... No one can argue against having more security.
Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.
- Samuel Johnson
Just a couple of thoughts based on what I have seen/experienced NOT technical knowledge
Your servers/network certainly need firewall protection. Some people use more than one, as they seem more tolerant of eachother than AV products, however, each one represents a system overhead so you slow things down.
As for individual client boxes, this would very much depend on where you are.
You have two basic sorts of enemy..............the ones outside and the ones within. The server firewalls should protect your intranet, or they are not doing their job.
If you are in a school/college , you may need an internal wall to protect the teaching staff from the predatory acts of unscrupulous students? also from crap that they have unleashed on the community due to their selfish, ignorant and antisocial behaviours.
"How do I get through the Sysadmins' block on prOn/gaming/hacker websites".......if you don't believe me just read through a few of the older threads on this site.
I guess my answer for now is that some individual machines might need an independent firewall, but keep it simple like the User
H3r3tic: try sygate. Its alot better in my book.
That's what I here zombiemann, but I don't use any software firewall anymore, I just trust the one in my router.
I only use software firewalls on remote user machines. Besides NAT I do some additional port forwarding at the gateway (Cisco). The firewall attached to the router handles everything else. My biggest problem with software firewalls is that the user will look at the logs and call me saying someone is hacking their PC. -normal network traffic is sometimes reported by the firewall as SYN, ACK, etc. attacks.
nihil has the most important solution description - Keep it simple for the user.
Hey thanks for the good information and going out and beyond my question.
I guess it's really going to depend on the type of network you are talking about. If you are talking a personal/home network then sure, a firewall on every machine is not a bad idea... even a built in "firewall" on a router isn't a bad thing either.
But if you are talking about a business network, then I would have to say no to having a firewall on every machine. For one the overhead would be tremendous, then configuring and maintaining those firewalls would be overkill. For a "real" network you will want a "real" firewall, something like Checkpoint FW-1 or TNG, something that allows stateful packet inspection, rules that can be set at a MAC/IP/protocol level which you can't do with things like Zone Alarm or the built in firewalls that come with home DSL/Cable routers. Also, in a corporate environment there will almost always be more than one firewall on a network (especially if you have a DMZ set up).
All firewalls are going to be software one way or another... unless you are flipping dip switches somewhere to reflect what rules are in effect then you are going to be using a software interface of some sorts to add those rules. Checkpoint offers stuff like firewall appliances which is hardware you buy from them that runs FW-1, or you can put FW-1 on a stand alone machine or even get a plug in for some of the better switches out there like Nokia (BIG-IP, TETRA)...
I have a meeting I have to go to right now, but I'll come back in a bit and finish off my thoughts on this post
Give a man a match and he will be warm for a while, light him on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life.

Always something to celebrate
In Other Words
This year, my daughter celebrated St. Patrick's Day in her preschool. I find this holiday to be fun and festive and in fact would have been surprised had they not marked it in some way. It would never occur to me not to celebrate such a day, even though I am not Irish.
As we prepare for Easter, a mere two weeks after St. Patrick's Day this year, I find there is a strange correlation in the way we celebrate these two seemingly unconnected holidays. I know many families that celebrate Easter in their own way, regardless of religious affiliation. Like St. Patrick's Day, Easter has also become a holiday that is for everyone, bringing with it traditions and events that may or may not have much to do with the original significance of the day itself.
Celebrating holidays and events that are not traditionally ours is not unusual in the melting pot of America. In a country founded by immigrants, certain holidays have become simply a part of the American identity, regardless of the original country our ancestors came from. For one day, we all can pretend that we are a part of a tradition, be it hunting for Easter eggs, or wearing green, having a margarita on Cinco de Mayo or Chinese food on Chinese New Year. Even March Madness has the national interest. For those among us, myself included, who aren't basketball fans, getting involved and interested is fun. There is something to be said for the enthusiasm of a mass of people. It can make you feel like a part of something that technically you aren't.
This got me thinking about what other holidays this month are worthy of celebration. It appears that in the month of March, there is much to celebrate. In addition to it being Irish American Heritage Month, it is also Music in Our Schools Month, National Nutrition Month, National Women's History Month and Red Cross Month. All worthy causes to celebrate and recognize.
To my surprise, I also found a very extensive list on the website holidayinsights.com recognizing specific days that are worthy of our holiday-loving attention.
Some of these days are genuinely important and have a place in American history, such as Employee Appreciation Day (first Friday in March), Girl Scouts Day (March 12), Freedom of Information Day (March 16), International Earth Day (March 20), National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day (March 29), and National Doctor's Day (March 30), celebrating the first use of general anesthesia in surgery.
Some celebratory days are legitimate, but seem as if they could be made up, such as National Pig Day (March 1) or Ear Muff Day on March 13, celebrating the day the ear muff was patented. There is National Pi Day, celebrated on March 14 (get it? 3.14). Then there is Near Miss Day on March 23, marking the anniversary of the day in 1989 when a very large asteroid narrowly missed hitting the Earth.
Some celebration days are touching, like Hug a GI Day on March 4 (if this day passed you by without carrying out its mission, I imagine a GI would be appreciative of thanks on any day).
Some of my favorites are simply hilarious, like If Pets Had Thumbs Day (March 3), Worship of Tools Day (March 11), Extraterrestrial Abductions Day (March 20, sharing the day we celebrate Earth Day...coincidence?), and Something on a Stick Day (March 28). Some days caution us to beware of even our friends such as Be Nasty Day (March 8) and the Ides of March (March 15).
Some of these days are created just for fun, such as National Popcorn Lover's Day on the second Thursday of March. A truly "National" day takes an act of Congress, and clearly, regardless of the fact that some of these celebratory days promote themselves as such, they are not.
After perusing this list and finding great enjoyment in it, I think celebrating such an important holiday like St. Patrick's Day without being Irish is just fine. If we can celebrate ear muffs and popcorn, doctors and Girl Scouts, why not an Irish saint?

Some final thoughts on the departure of Joe Banner as Eagles president:
As others have noted, the idea that Banner just got tired of running the Eagles is absurd. If there is one thing I've been sure of over the 10 years that I've covered this team, beyond the certainty that every Monday morning news conference was going to begin with the listing of injuries, it's that Joe Banner lived to carry the Lombardi Trophy down to the WIP studios and invite Angelo Cataldi to kiss it. And maybe kiss something else, as well.
(His Super Bowl ring, of course. What did you think I meant? Geez.)
Why would Banner abandon that quest? I'm stunned that he would, but I can think of a few reasons. One, the ascension of his one-time protege, Howie Roseman, left Joe with a much more circumscribed role than he enjoyed several years ago. That part of Banner wanting a new challenge rings true. And I do believe that Andy Reid moved to further limit Banner's power, as Reid grew weary of dealing with the locker room fallout from Banner's negotiating style. I absolutely believe Reid felt the DeSean Jackson debacle of 2011 was less of a reflection on Jackson than on the Eagles.
Even with all that, I'm still surprised that Banner stepped aside, given that Reid doesn't have a contract beyond 2013, and is thought to need a really good 2012, if not a Super Bowl title, to get another deal. Leaving after 18 years because you lost a power struggle with someone who might not be here come next February doesn't make much sense.
Which leads me to a thought that is strictly my own, wasn't whispered by anyone down at NovaCare. What if Banner doesn't think Reid is going away anytime soon, AND doesn't think the Reid-Michael Vick nexus is ever going to win the Eagles a Super Bowl? As I noted the first time I wrote about this, we are more that three years down the road from Joe's weary "definition of instanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" speech in a hallway in Arizona after the January 2009 NFC Championship Game. It was an ambiguous statement, widely applied to Donovan McNabb at the time. I'm not at all sure he was just talking about Donovan.
It was Joe, and only Joe, who indicated last year that Reid needed to win a Super Bowl to get a new contract. What if he came to realize that Roseman and Lurie were more reluctant than Joe might have been to spin the coaching wheel? There is no obvious savior waiting in the wings, no hotshot young assistant ready to take over. John Harbaugh got away a long time ago.
Right now, in the wake of the Banner departure, we don't really know if we are living in Andyworld or Howieworld. If Reid gets any kind of contract extension between now and the end of the season, we'll have our answer: It's Andyworld. If no Reid deal is forthcoming, and it becomes apparent that Reid's 2012 outcome will indeed determine whether he gets that new contract, welcome to Howieworld. The next coach will be Roseman's guy.
Remember, Jeffrey Lurie, in his anguished postseason address, sounded almost ready to fire Reid, but when reporters asked about Roseman -- who certainly had a lot to do with all the silly Ronnie Brown and Steve Smith-type signings last summer, not to mention some poor draft decisions -- Lurie got indignant. He made it clear that Roseman was not in any sort of trouble.
That's why I kinda think it might be Howieworld. And I'd love to know what Howie really thinks of Reid.

Improvement in HR strategy and processes is essential for public sector reform and transformation. Indeed, HR costs represent a large portion of the cost of public organizations.
Managing human resources strategically is one of the most efficient ways to achieve major transformations of public organizations. HR teams have a role to play here by delivering high-quality services in areas such as mobility, talent management, and training. Costs associated with reshuffling those core missions remain marginal when compared to expected benefits of reforms.
Proven practices can enable a quantum leap in HR management in public sector organizations. These include:

The San Juan contest was a region game, and winning that match kept Grand out of last place in the Region 15 standings and gave the Lady Devils a No. 4 seed in this week's state 2A playoffs. The championship playoffs are scheduled take place Oct. 25 and 26 at Utah Valley University in Orem.
Against the San Juan Lady Broncos, the Lady Devils won the first two games of the match by the respective scores of 25-21 and 25-19. Grand then lost the third game, 25-15, but came back to take the fourth and final game, 25-22.
The following afternoon, the Lady Devils coasted to a relatively easy 3-0 win over the Green River Lady Pirates. The non-region victory did not help Grand's position in the region standings, but GCHS head coach Deb Hren said that by winning their last two matches, the Lady Devils should have favorable momentum heading into this week's state tournament.
Grand's first-round opponent on Thursday, Oct. 25 will be the Gunnison Bulldogs, the No. 1 seed from Region 16. That game is scheduled to start at 3 p.m.
Although Grand swept the Lady Bulldogs 3-0 in a pre-season tournament match held Aug. 28, Gunnison has since gone on to clinch their region championship with a perfect 10-0 region record.
"If we play like we're capable of playing, I think we can win at least our first two games at state and make it to the semifinals against Richfield, assuming that they also win their first two games," Hren said.
"If our main core of players shows up and we play our game, I know we can win," Hren added.
The double-elimination tournament continues until Friday evening at UVU.

Mercedes Medical is expanding its sales force, planning to add 47 jobs over the next five years.
The international distributor of laboratory and medical products will lease and renovate the former Merita Bakery building in southern Manatee County to house a call center for tele-sales.
That 4,800-square-foot building is next to Mercedes' main facility, where it employs 64 people.
Sales topped $25 million last year, said chief executive officer Alex Miller. The company's primary market divisions, Clinical Lab and Histology Lab, sell to more than 7,000 customers in labs, hospitals and physician marketplaces in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
"Our sales have been growing 10 percent annually, and this expansion will allow us to double our sales force to 50 team members, in addition to adding other support positions," Miller said. "Our goal for 2013 is $30 million in revenue, and $50 million by the end of 2015."
The Manatee County Commission qualified the company to receive up to $111,000 in performance-based incentives for adding jobs that will pay at least 115 percent above the local average wage of $35,633. The county also is expediting the permitting process through its rapid response program.
The Bradenton Area Economic Development Corp. has worked with Mercedes Medical on its previous growth initiatives, said president Sharon Hillstrom.
"A fine employer with an impressive track record for both revenue growth and community involvement, Mercedes has proven that the Bradenton area is an excellent location for businesses serving national and international health-care markets," she said.

Jonathan Van Selow:
Jonathan Van Selow is an American-born Composer, Producer, Performer (Piano/Guitar/VIs), and Vocalist. Having studied Classical Piano since he was six years old, and performing in recitals and tours since the age of eight, Jonathan took up writing music in 1998 with the formation of Puretone Records.
Jonathan's music takes the listener on a journey through a vast variety of experiences, as listeners will write their own stories in their mind's eye as they listen to the rich ambiance and thematic queues within the music. Jonathan strives to take the SOUL of the music, and lay it down for you to experience… Many of his popular songs were written in one take, and will exhibit subtle nuances every time they are performed. This is a technique Jonathan has coined "stream-of-consciousness recording," which involves the music simply "streaming" from mental concept to recorded completion, leading to varied, subtle, powerful lead lines and vibrant orchestrations. Unlike the typical, commercial "hundreds of takes," formulaic approach, Jonathan's music strives to capture a dynamic moment in time, a feeling, an event, an emotion, and encapsulated that emotion in the track, presented to YOU (our Fans and partners) to write your own stories as you listen, or simply to allow the emotion to take control and take you to wherever you wish to go, or feel however you wish to feel.

As was the case the prior week, last week saw little price change in US financial markets as investors are apparently taking a breather to digest some mixed economic news. For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell fractionally to end the week at 13,981, while the S&P 500 Index and Nasdaq Composite each advanced 0.1% to close at 1,519 and 3,192, respectively. Fixed income markets were also little changed, with the yield on the 10-year Treasury rising very slightlyto end the week at 2.01%.

This spring, a team of five Geneva College seniors participated in Solar Splash, the World Championship of intercollegiate solar/electric boating. The competition was held May 27-31 in Fayette, Arkansas, and the Geneva College team placed ninth overall. They also earned the award for the best-looking boat.
Geneva College has competed six times before, in 2000 to 2004, and in 2006. This year′s team consisted of three mechanical engineering students, Sean Padgett of Center Township, David Gettemy from Enon Valley and Robert Gabriel of New Castle, Pennsylvania; and two computer science majors, Daniel Kennedy of Beaver Falls and Jonathan Kromer from Charles Town, West Virginia.
"This year was a first for active involvement by computer science majors, and they were a definite asset to the team," says supervising engineering professor Dr. David Shaw. "As always, I was impressed and energized by all the students."
Solar Splash began in 1994, and colleges from all over the country compete by designing and building boats powered by solar-charged batteries. After being judged on construction, competing teams must pass a qualifying course to determine the craft′s seaworthiness, maneuverability and control. Qualifying vessels then compete in three races: a 300-meter sprint, a two-hour endurance event and a slalom race.
Geneva College is a comprehensive Christian college of the arts, sciences and professional studies. Founded in the tradition of the Reformed Christian faith, Geneva prepares students to serve Christ in all areas of society: work, family and the church. Geneva College′s philosophy of education is based on the Foundational Concepts of Christian Higher Education. Geneva is a founding member of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU).

Next month, Capcom resumes scaring gamers with Resident Evil 5, the latest entry in the survival-horror series that helped define a genre. The Resident Evil series turns 13 this year, too, making it a perfect time to ring in a new installment of this storied franchise. Chances are, if you've been gaming for the last decade, you have at least dropped one or two (or 500) zombies infected with Umbrella's sinister T-Virus.
We asked readers which of the Resident Evil games was the best. Over 21,000 thousand logged their opinion of the ten options we offered. Here's how the votes break down:
- Resident Evil 4: 59%
- Resident Evil 2: 17%
- Resident Evil: 11%
- Resident Evil 3: Nemesis: 5%
- Resident Evil: Code Veronica: 4%
- Resident Evil Zero: 1%
- Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles: 1%
- Resident Evil Outbreak: 0%
- Resident Evil Outbreak 2: 0%
- Resident Evil: Dead Aim: 0%
It should come as no surprise that Resident Evil 4 topped the list. The 2005 release was a critical and commercial smash, winning a number of awards. What is interesting to see, though, is how the main games in the franchise steamrolled over the off-shoots. The two Outbreak games for the PlayStation 2 cratered in this poll, as did the light gun shooter Dead Aim. True, these games did not necessarily grab the best reviews or the most sales, but it says either Capcom should just concentrate on the main games in the series since fans like them the most or that Capcom needs to pay better attention to the quality of the off-shoot games. Or maybe it's a combination of two.
Which game did you vote for? And if you didn't vote, which of the Resident Evil games do you believe deserves the top spot? Hit the comments section below to let us know!

Responses to the decision by the NCAA to gradually restore football scholarships taken from Penn State in response to the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal:
— Penn State president Rodney Erickson: "This action today ... recognizes the significant efforts over the past year to make Penn State a safer, stronger institution."
—Penn State football coach Bill O'Brien: "The scholarship additions will allow us to provide more student-athletes with a tremendous opportunity to earn that degree and play football for Penn State."
—Penn State athletic director Dave Joyner: "I am very happy for Coach O'Brien, the football coaches and staff and the players; especially pleased for our current and future student-athletes, who are the most important reason why we love working in intercollegiate athletics."
—Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett: "I am pleased that the NCAA is recognizing the important changes and reforms that the university has undertaken and will continue to make moving forward."
—Penn Staters for Responsible Leadership spokeswoman Maribeth Roman Schmidt: "The NCAA has taken the first step toward repairing some of the damage that it and Penn State's leaders have inflicted on Penn State."
—Family of former coach Joe Paterno: "Penn State is a great university with an excellent culture. The ultimate resolution to this tragic episode is a full and fair review of the record. A transparent process that respects due process will serve the best interests of the victims, the university, the NCAA and all other affected parties."
—Athletics integrity monitor and former U.S. Sen. George Mitchell: "While there is more work to be done, Penn State has clearly demonstrated its commitment to restoring integrity in its athletics program."
—NCAA president Mark Emmert: "The goal has always been to ensure the university enforces clear expectations and a daily mindset within athletics that the highest priority must be placed on educating, nurturing and protecting young people."
—Penn State senior Brendan MacBride: "It's great that NCAA is coming down a little easier. They were too hasty to begin with."

LA GRANGE, Ky. (AP) – A police officer has been charged with sending sexually explicit text messages to a juvenile.
The Oldham County Police Department says in a news release that Officer Shane Mosley resigned after being charged with using electronic means to induce a minor to engage in sexual or other prohibited activities; official misconduct; and third degree unlawful transaction with a minor.
According to online fiscal court minutes, Mosley had been an officer with the county since 2008.
He was lodged in the Oldham County Jail and released on $1,000 bond. The jail did not have record of an attorney for Mosley.
The news release says a female juvenile contacted police this week about the texts. The release says the texts contained specific, graphic sexual references and other inappropriate communications.

I'm sick and tired of people saying 'there's nothing on my system worth hacking, security's just not worth it'.
I'm a computer technician and have heard this far too many times. AT LEAST twice a month someone comes in with a virus (acctually this happens very often) on their comp, or a computer that's been hacked.
The customer only found out when the attacker was done playing with the backdoors and remote control utilities and decided to start messing with stuff... Then the poor unsuspecting customer is left to deal with the likely $100+ bill for the repair of thier OS and restoration of their data, if that's even possible.
Statistically this may not be too bad, but when you add the inevitable weeks of random problems leading up to the discovery and the absolute loss of privacy that's occured, I'd say investing a little in security sound quite reasonable, if not neccessary.
I only service systems in one small city so I can imagine what the demographic of 'household' hacks must be internationally, and how mutch money is lost pointlessly.
Any opinions on this subject? or is this what we're all here about?
I'm just ranting from my frustration with ignorance. I'm sure you all understand...


text: I've been making so many quilts that I've run out of room to store them. Most of them are Christmas presents so I can't give them away yet, but I've moved my sheets out of my chest and into a rubbermaid container (I hate the smell when I pull them out but it's better than the quilts smelling like it) and the 3 blanket chests in my house are full with blankets and quilts. We don't have a linen closet and my small closet doesn't have a shelf. And there's no spare bedroom. Any ideas of where to put them all? Because I don't want to stop making quilts

Rep. Friend posing with Special Olympics of Indiana athletes. The House held a charity drive for the organization before session.
The General Assembly continues to put forth legislative proposals that will provide many benefits for Hoosiers across the state. As changes are implemented, I am confident that Hoosiers will begin to see the positive effects of our legislative efforts in their own personal situations. I consider it an honor and a privilege to serve the constituents of House District 23. I will continue to do my best to support programs that enhance the lifestyle in rural and small-town Indiana.

SEATTLE – Real Salt Lake (6-1-6, 24 points, West #2) lost its first match of 2014 on Saturday, giving up three second half goals to fall 4-0 at Seattle Sounders FC (9-3-2, 29 points, West #1).
Saturday's loss ended Real Salt Lake's 12-game unbeaten start to the season. The Claret-and-Cobalt will depart Seattle on Sunday, heading directly to Columbus ahead of Wednesday's match at Eastern Conference foe Columbus Crew.
Seattle went ahead in the 42nd minute, when MF Gonzalo Pineda buried a penalty kick after a questionable PK decision by referee Ricardo Salazar. The Sounders poured things on in the second, with MF Marco Pappa scoring in the 55th, FW Chad Barrett scoring in the 62nd and FW Obafemi Martins topping things off in the 90th.
Real Salt Lake controlled the early stages, but it was Seattle that had the first chance, nearly going ahead through Barrett in the 10th minute. Pappa played Barrett in on the left side of the box, allowing the veteran striker to fire a low left-footer just wide of the far post.
Salazar whistled RSL DF Aaron Maund for a questionable penalty kick in the 40th. Maund was called for the dubious PK after going shoulder-to-shoulder with Seattle MF Lamar Neagle near the end line in the left side of the box. Pineda buried the ensuing spot kick in the 42nd minute, slotting it just out of the reach of diving RSL GK Jeff Attinella and inside the left post.
Maund had a shot to equalize in the 44th minute. RSL collected a loose ball following a corner kick, with MF Javier Morales clipping a ball across the face of goal from the left side of the area. Seattle GK Stefan Frei tipped the cross and it fell to Maund on the right side. Unfortunately, he couldn't put his chance on frame, hitting it into traffic in front of net before it was cleared.
Pappa made it 2-0 in the 55th, bending home a gorgeous free kick after DF Brad Evans was fouled outside the box. The Guatemalan international curled his 25-yard effort up and over the RSL wall and inside the near post from just right of center.
Seattle made it 3-0 just seven minutes later, punishing RSL with a quick counter following a turnover. Martins started the play, stripping a Claret-and-Cobalt player near midfield and playing Neagle in behind. Neagle dribbled into the box and cut a pass across to Barrett, who chipped over an onrushing Attinella, off of a backtracking Maund, and in.
RSL had its best chance of the game in the 70th minute, when FW Olmes Garcia banged an effort off the post. MF Javier Morales created the chance, chipping a ball to Garcia in the right side of the area. The Colombian striker ran onto the ball at the top-right corner of the six, smashing a volley past Frei and off the woodwork.
Attinella made two big stops in the 72nd and 73rd minute, stopping Martins on a point blank attempt before getting a hand to a Neagle shot to push it off the post.
Martins added a fourth for Seattle in the 90th minute, tapping home a low ball from substitute FW Kenny Cooper to make it 4-0.
Real Salt Lake will return to action on Wednesday, taking on Columbus at 5:30 p.m. MT at Crew Stadium. Wednesday's match will be broadcast live on CW30, ESPN 700 AM and 102.3 La Gran D FM.
Real Salt Lake Match Notes – RSL 0–4 SEA
- Saturday's 4-0 loss to Seattle Sounders FC snapped Real Salt Lake's unbeaten record, handing RSL its first loss of the season through 13 games. The Claret-and-Cobalt now post a 6-1-6 record through 13 matches. RSL's 12-game unbeaten streak to start the season is a club record. Today's loss also ends the club's 16-game regular season unbeaten streak dating back to last September. That streak is the second-longest in club history, trailing only the 18-game regular season unbeaten run compiled in the 2010 and 2011 seasons.
- Real Salt Lake's 12-game unbeaten run is tied for the MLS record for longest unbeaten start to a season with the 1996 and 2010 LA Galaxy and 2000 Kansas City Wizards.
- Saturday's loss ended RSL Head Coach Jeff Cassar's unbeaten start to his head coaching career at 12 games. Cassar is tied the longest such streak in league history with Lothar Osiander, who started the 1996 season 12-0-0 as head coach of the LA Galaxy.
- Missing from today's lineup were U.S. internationals Captain Kyle Beckerman and GK Nick Rimando and Costa Rican international FW Alvaro Saborio. All three players left the club on May 14 for pre-World Cup training camps with their respective national teams. Beckerman and Rimando were named to the U.S.'s final 23-man World Cup roster on Thursday. Saborio suffered a fifth metatarsal fracture while training with the Costa Rican national team on Thursday and will miss the World Cup and is scheduled to be out 3-4 months. Beckerman and Rimando will miss a minimum of three more regular season matches and at least one Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup match before returning from Brazil. RSL is now 1-1-1 without all three of Beckerman, Rimando and Saborio this year. The Claret-and-Cobalt is now 3-3-3 in MLS play when missing all three players since the start of 2013.
- Saturday's loss gives RSL a 5-4-4 all-time regular season record against Seattle Sounders FC and 2-3-2 regular season record in Washington.
- RSL FW Joao Plata was missing from today's lineup after reinjuring his left hamstring against FC Dallas last week. The Ecuadorian has six goals this season; he's tied for the team lead with FW Alvaro Saborio.
- RSL backup GK Jeff Attinella earned his fourth start of the 2014 season Saturday, filling in for Rimando. Attinella now posts a 1-1-3 record in 2014 and a 2-3-4 regular season record in his RSL career.
- RSL MF Cole Grossman recorded his fifth career start for the Claret-and-Cobalt Saturday. The 25-year-old defensive midfielder replaced Captain Kyle Beckerman at the bottom of RSL's midfield diamond with the U.S. international away at the USMNT's World Cup preparation camp.
- RSL FW Devon Sandoval earned his third start of 2014 for Real Salt Lake today, filling in for RSL FW Alvaro Saborio as the target forward up top. Sandoval was paired up top with FW Olmes Garcia, the first time the two have started together this year. Today marked the fourth different forward pairing this year.
- RSL MF John Stertzer made his third appearance for the Claret-and-Cobalt this year, subbing on in the 74th minute of the match.

Missoni Founder Dead At 92
The fashion world has lost another innovator. Ottavio Missoni, the designer renowned for his colorful knit patterns and sweaters, died Thursday (May 9) at age 92, the New York Times reports. The Italian designer, who founded Missoni in the 1950s, had been experiencing respiratory problems prior to his passing.
Plenty of celebrities have draped themselves in Missoni threads. But one of the designer's most vocal supporters is Drake, who once told GQ, "I don't give a fuck what anybody says about my Missoni sweaters! Fuck you, if you don't like my sweater!" The rapper even aspired to collaborate with the label, adding, "Hopefully, Missoni hollers at me and we get a sweater line popping."
