The Facade of Manliness--a discussion with Chopper Poppa
Chopper Poppa is Kyle Bradford a father of two. He is passionate about his children and fatherhood. He recently invited me to join him for his podcast Fatherhood Wide Open. We discussed a post I had written when I first started my blog. "The Fortress of Solitude" was a post I wrote while thinking about what it means to be a man and how I can best influence my boys to reaching this ideal. Kyle and I discussed the difference between authentic manhood and a facade of manliness designed to emotionally isolate oneself from others. We discussed how parents unintentionally lock their boys into a fortress of solitude and some important ways to protect them from relational isolation. Follow the link below to hear more of the discussion.

This movie took me admittedly by surprise. I went into it expecting yet another period piece about "how fabulous it is to be a rich woman in pre-Industrial Britain". But, thankfully, that turned out to have little to do with The Young Victoria. Consequently, this film now ranks as my favorite period piece about a well-to-do woman in England's colonial times.
Growth and Confidence
The Young Victoria is the story of, well, the young Queen Victoria of Great Britain, how she came to the throne, her early reign, and her romance-then-marriage with Prince Albert. What makes this a compelling film is how this journey is depicted, how well the actors/actresses fit their roles, and how Victoria is truly one of the most impressive role models for a strong and empowered woman that I have ever seen.
Victoria's youth was tumultuous, and the chaos of her younger years is clearly evident within the film. When her father died without a male heir, Victoria was immediately regarded as inferior and inexperienced. Very few people considered the possibility of her ruling without destroying the country. As a consequence, two blood relatives of the late king decided to compete and see if they could force Victoria to sign away her powers to them, to allow them to act as regents in her stead.
One can't emphasize enough how terrible this situation was for her. Her mother was among those who wanted her to sign away her powers, and her mother's servant was among the most intimidating and ruthless in trying to force Victoria to do so; he came close to physically attacking her a couple times. Victoria's father is gone, her friends limited due to a sheltered youth, and she is constantly pursued by a number of men seeking to woo her in order to gain her power. While she seeks counsel from advisors, she also has difficulty trusting them given her own inexperience; she fears that they will seek to control policy through her, and thus she has to keep one eye open on everyone at all times.
Despite the odds and despite the urge to run away from all of the conflict, intrigue, and responsibility, Victoria takes it all upon herself, defying all of expectations of her. She encounters obstacle after obstacle, and yet pulls herself through with grit and determination. It is easy to see in this film why Queen Victoria turned out to be one of Great Britain's most influential and important leaders; she takes the stereotype of weak-willed, subservient woman and breaks it over her knee, refusing to give up even in the darkest of hours.
Depth of Character
What makes the movie memorable is the way it makes the characters multifaceted without shirking from their bad decisions and questionable moments. Victoria makes a number of poor choices throughout the movie and, instead of making us dislike her, it creates far more believability and sympathy with her actions. We feel that Victoria is human, not some royal immortal without a fault. This humanizing is important to note, as it is so easy to depict major historical figures as legendary, almost mythic characters unable to do wrong.
This depth of character applies to everyone in the movie. Her mother and her advisor are unlikeable characters, and yet events in the movie show us that they aren't entirely self-motivated, balancing our opinion of them. Similarly, Prince Albert, while a caring and intelligent individual, also creates some conflict with Victoria as they try to work out how to wield power between them. Unlike other movies, where a conflict such as this is a tool to make the final reconciliation between the two lovers more romantic and pure, the differences between Victoria and Albert are crucial to understanding who they are and how they managed to get along. It is an element of realism that thankfully was not swept under the rug, and it shows us how they became one of the most successful duos Britain has ever seen.
Prince Albert bears special mention. Like Victoria, he was an individual pressured by elders to go in one direction then another. This is depicted brilliantly in a way that allows us to see precisely why they were attracted to each other, their commonalities, and how their similar experiences affected their personalities. Prince Albert is similarly a man who makes a good role-model, a man who is both decisive and humble, romantic and sensible.
I am very glad that I ended up watching this movie, as it helped to push aside stereotypes I had formed about this genre of period-piece romantic dramas. It has been very easy to see how the romantic mystique of living in pre-Industrial Britain has affected the aspirations and dreams of women everywhere, and I found this to be a bit disturbing. Pride and Prejudice shows us an independent girl who waits for love and resists arranged marriage, but it glosses over the fact that Mr. Darcy was not normal for a man of his time period. It also does not mention how, if Mr. Darcy had not been around, the main character would likely have become a shunned, old spinstress for the rest of her life. The movie and the book have had the unintended consequence of casting the time period in a rosy light that isn't entirely accurate, and I think that this has gone over the heads of those who have embraced it.
By contrast, The Young Victoria shows us the world of a young queen which is full of peril, manipulation, and responsibility. It shows us her triumphs and her failures, carefully showing us what happens when she slips up. Victoria thus becomes a powerful and romantic figure, yet one that is also steeped in reality, making her victories resonate all the more. Thus do I highly recommend The Young Victoria for all viewers. This is a story that is not to be missed.

Hi All,
For some reason this won't let me filter the Sunday 10th climb from the Saturday 9th one but would love to chat to any fellow travellers that may be joining us?! Two guys from North Devon in England who are training very hard and cannot wait!
Hope to speak to people soon...
Hi, I'm leaving a couple of weeks after you guys on the 22nd to do the same route.
How is the training going, what sort of thing are you doing? Have you ever done anything like this before? This is my first trek, I've done Snowdon and Helvellyn over the last couple of months for training but these have been my first real mountains. I keep going from being excited to terrified about the whole thing.
Good luck with all your prep, and good luck on the mountain.
Hi Jody,
Training is going really well but I'm the same as you - excited to terrified to excited again! We've walked 200+ miles around the whole North Devon coast, loads of hills and pushed really hard wearing backpacks with 3 litres of water and all of our waterproofs etc. but still hoping we're fit enough.
Haven't actually had the chance to do Snowdon but have done a couple of 25 mile+ days so think we're okay in terms of distance (nothing like that on the mountain) and uphill seems okay - more worried about the downhill bits!
We've bought loads of kit but reading all the blogs and forums everyone has different advice and, like others, we've probably bought far too much.
Good luck with your trek, I'll post when we get back on the 18th and let you know how we got on.
Hi David,
Sounds like you are doing really well with your training. I live in Berkshire so not a great deal of hill walking to be done but I have been carting a couple of bricks everywhere in my backpack to try and help things along. I'll be taking them out again this weekend though to give Snowdon another go. I haven't done any long walks like you guys but I am trying to get some in over the weekends before we go, although they keep flying by and I still don't seem to have managed it.
I know what you mean about kit, I could open an outdoor store with all the stuff I have bought. I had to clear out a 'Kilimanjaro' drawer to try and clear it all away!
Any last minute advise would be brilliant it's hard trying to get ready for something when you have no idea what to expect...
Good luck and happy packing
Hi David,
How did you guys get on. I hope that you had an amazing trip. I head off on Friday. I seem to be having a calm day today, although that doesn't mean tomorrow won't bring blind panic again.
Fingers crossed that your toenails are still in tact.
You have not posted anything in the forum yet.

Fixed-income trading by U.S. hedge funds down 40%, study says
Fixed-income trading by hedge funds slid 40 percent in 2009 as the credit-market crisis forced adjustments in their trading practices, according to a study by consulting firm Greenwich Associates.
Hedge funds are more likely than other types of firms to say they've cut back on the total number of securities firm used for fixed-income trading, shifted trades to dealers with the least counterparty risk and reduced the concentration of trading business held by any single dealer, according to Greenwich Associates 2009 North American Fixed Income Investors Survey.
"Perhaps the fact that hedge funds have taken these steps explains why only 12 percent of hedge fund managers say counterparty risk remains a significant concern, compared to 18 percent of institutions overall," Greenwich Associates consultant Tim Sangston said.
"But it is interesting to note that hedge funds register less concern than other types of institutions about a series of additional risks including systemic risk and credit-default risk."
Overall fixed-income trading increased 15 percent from 2008 to 2009, according to the study.
Hedge funds lost 18.3 percent last year as they misjudged the severity of the biggest financial crisis since the Depression, according to Hedge Fund Research Inc. The loss was the worst since the Chicago-based research firm began tracking data in 1990.
In 2007-2008, hedge funds generated about 20 percent of total U.S. trading volume in fixed-income, Greenwich Associates consultant Woody Canaday said. In 2008-2009, that share fell to 12 percent.
A much larger role in markets for certain individual fixed-income products is held by hedge funds, the study said. Hedge funds make up more than 90 percent of distressed debt-trading volume, 60 percent in high-yield credit derivatives, and from 55 percent to 60 percent of investment-grade credit derivatives, the study said.

Earlier, Flash was the major tool used to develop eLearning courses, with complex interactivities including rich animations and graphics. However, development time is the concern as it would take about 3 to 6 months to develop a course. With the advent of rapid authoring tools, the time taken to develop eLearning courses decreased by many folds.
Even the high level interactivities are also possible in tools like Articulate Storyline. Let's see how you can develop some complex flash like interactivities using this tool.
Re-creating Flash Like Interactivity in Articulate Storyline:
One of our important clients wanted to convert the Drag-and-Drop interactivity, which was earlier developed in Flash. According to their requirement, the user should be able to drop four objects in a box. When the user drags and drops the first object into the box, it will open and likewise, he should be able to drag and drop other objects. The box will close only when all the four objects are dropped into it.
Here are some screenshots that we have created the customized drag and drop:
Our solution:
The solution made for this interactivity is by using the variables and states of the box. First, we take two states for the box (normal, open). When a user drags anyone of the objects into the box, then we changed the box into open state and if the user drops all the objects in to the box then the box should come back to normal state again. By using this functionality this interactivity works fine and looks rich just as it would in Flash.
Thus, Articulate Storyline offers all kinds of opportunities for customization and you are not limited to the default interactions. You can also create complex assessments and many more interactivities just like you would do using Flash using the interesting features in Articulate Storyline in less time.

Disk OK fake system optimizer. How to get rid of Disk OK virus
Disk OK (also known under the name of DiskOK) is the new branch that has just appeared on the virus tree in the thorny garden of malicious programs. Stating of itself as certain unbelievable remedy for system improvement and functionality boost, this scam is very knowledgeable in fooling many computer users at this time. Cause the truth reality is that Disk OK is not able at all of removing any disk errors it claims to be present on your system.
You need to remember that Disk OK has the outward appearance and design that is very close to that of HDD OK – another virus of which we have told you already. Both of them come from the same malicious family of fake programs that should be eliminated at the very initial detection. Remember that Disk OK comes to workstation without user's knowledge or authorization. This is all achieved by means of some holes in security settings of your computer or other system threats which give the chance for interference of this badware inside of your workstation. Needless to say, you would be really worried when you see this virus on your machine , cause the outcome of its availability and further functioning will be really horrible. Oh yes, they will… You will face lots of popups, ads and other system warnings telling that your system performance urgently needs some immediate enhancement. Disk OK would state that it is the only remedy for elimination of such detected problems. You need to know that all such stories are just the fairytales, and the errors detected do not really exist. But before such popups and ads appear, Disk OK would show certain fake scanning of your PC with same false detection of computer problems, in order to make its statements look more persuasive. Later on the invitation to purchase Disk OK would appear. Those who agree to do so are just being deceived and fooled. Cause they have not purchased some good tool but the virus instead.
To make the long story short, immediately delete Disk OK virus from your system. Do not believe its faulty promises and, of course, do not purchase it. If you have already done so please dispute that charges as soon as possible. For its successful uninstall please refer to the reputable anti-virus tool.

Quest Diagnostics now offers the Multiple Myeloma, Daratumumab-Specific, Immunofixation test for your multiple myeloma patients on Daratumumab
Quest Diagnostics has launched a FDA-modified, Multiple Myeloma, Daratumumab-Specific, Immunofixation test, detected by a gel shift method that discriminates between endogenous myeloma protein and daratumumab, so the patient's assessment of the M protein band is made easier.
The Multiple Myeloma, Daratumumab-Specific, Immunofixation test (NTC 94514), should be considered for multiple myeloma patients treated with daratumumab to rule out monoclonal antibody interference.
DARZALEX® (daratumumab; Janssen Biotech) is a human monoclonal antibody that binds to CD38, a protein expressed at low levels in immune white blood cells and in particularly high levels in plasma cells.
If you have patients on daratumumab that require testing, this test can avoid unnecessary follow-up testing and allow more accurate interpretation of depth of response to treatment.
This test is available at Quest's Nichols Institute, San Juan Capistrano, California.

Earlier this summer, Monica and I spent two fun hours with three close friends at a crowded Italian restaurant. We sat three on one side and two on the other side of a rectangular table. I took the seat with no one directly across from me.
A 50-something couple at a small table to my left was within arm's reach, closer to me than my friends at the other end of our table. Occupied with our spirited conversation, the gentleman frequently stared our way.

About the Port Authority
- Tamsin Davidson

- Views:
1 Thomas Belfiore, Chief Security Officer The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Testimony for the House Emergency Preparedness, Response and Communications Subcommittee on Protecting our Passengers: Perspectives on Securing Surface Transportation in New Jersey and New York, June 21, 2016 About the Port Authority The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey conceives, builds, operates and maintains infrastructure critical to the New York/New Jersey region's transportation and trade network. These facilities include America's busiest airport system, including: John F. Kennedy International, LaGuardia, and Newark Liberty International airports, marine terminals and ports, the PATH rail transit system, six tunnels and bridges between New York and New Jersey, the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan, and the World Trade Center. For more than ninety years, the Port Authority has worked to improve the quality of life for the more than 18 million people who live and work in New York and New Jersey metropolitan region. The Office of the Chief Security Officer Created in 2012, the Office of the Chief Security Officer (OCSO) is a department within the Port Authority and is responsible for providing the highest quality public safety, facility security operations, security program management, emergency management, and airport rescue and firefighting training and services. Together, over 2,000 employees ensure the security and safe movement of the Port Authority's customers, partners, employees, and stakeholders every day. I. Port Authority New York and New Jersey Transportation Assets The Port Authority builds, operates, and maintains critical transportation and trade assets that fall under our five (5) lines of business: Aviation Rail Tunnels, Bridges and Terminals Ports Commercial Real Estate Our aviation assets include six (6) airports: John F. Kennedy International Airport, LaGuardia Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, Teterboro Airport and Stewart International Airport. In 2015, Port Authority airports moved an estimated 124 million passengers. Our rail and surface transportation assets include the: Trans-Hudson Rail System (PATH), George Washington Bridge, Bayonne Bridge, Goethals Bridge, Outerbridge Crossing, the Port Authority Bus Terminal, George Washington Bridge Bus Station, 1
2 Journal Square Transportation Center, Holland Tunnel and Lincoln Tunnel. Over 115 million vehicles travel over PA s bridges and Tunnels annually. Port Authority also manages ports that transport vital cargo throughout the New York and New Jersey region. The Port of New York and New Jersey is the largest on the east coast and in 2015 moved over 3.6 million cargo containers. The Port Authority also owns and manages the 16-acre World Trade Center site, home to the iconic One World Trade Center. II. Our Multi-Layered Approach to Securing Our Assets and Protecting the Public We utilize a robust multi-layered security approach to protect the Port Authority s customers, the general public, employees, and critical infrastructure by developing, implementing, and managing programs that preserve life and property, increase safety and security, and support the Agency s business objectives by strengthening our resilience and continuity of operations. With these measures in place there is no single point of failure. Our multi-layered approach is explained in detail below. Intelligence-Led The Port Authority Police Department (PAPD) implements intelligence-led policing to ensure our resources are effectively deployed to prevent potential threats to our customers, employees, and facilities. The PAPD has presence in 28 Federal, state, and local law enforcement task forces, to include: the Federal Bureau of Investigation Joint Terrorism Task Force (FBI JTTF) in New York and New Jersey which allows for shared intelligence across many agencies; the New York and New Jersey High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) taskforce and the New Jersey State Police Regional Operations Intelligence Center (ROIC) that allows for the immediate exchange of important, timely and actionable intelligence for both sides of the Hudson. Additionally, we have a stakeholder representative assigned fulltime to the New York Police Department s Lower Manhattan Security Initiative. This unit is a key provider of day-to-day actionable intelligence relative to routine conditions like large events and demonstrations to current and emerging threats. These combined resources result in the agile, flexible, effective and efficient deployment of security and law enforcement resources that are responsive to current and developing threats and conditions. Risk Assessments The protection of critical infrastructure is driven by all-hazards risk assessments which are performed on a regular basis to better understand changes in threats and vulnerabilities related to our facilities. Our periodic multi-hazard assessments look across all Agency assets and prioritize our risk so we can guide our security investments accordingly. 2
3 Police Interdiction Activities The PAPD is comprised of over 1800 uniformed police officers operating across thirteen (13) Port Authority facilities. The department also includes a Criminal Investigations Bureau, Special Operations Division, which includes an Emergency Services Unit and a Canine Unit (K-9), and an Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting component at the Port Authority airports. Through visible uniformed police presence and in partnership with other law enforcement agencies, the PAPD suppresses crime and utilizes counterterrorism measures to thwart potential adversaries seeking to cause harm or disruption by way of an attack. PAPD also deploys high visibility patrols and specialized services to enhance basic patrol functions utilizing intelligence-led policing concepts. Operational Security Measures and Security Agents The Port Authority implements civilian security programs to supplement our police department activities and increase the levels of protection at our facilities. These programs safeguard Port Authority facilities from threats to physical infrastructure, unauthorized access to restricted areas, cybersecurity attacks, and breaches of protected security information. Additionally, the Port Authority employs over 1000 unarmed Uniformed Contract Security Agents to guard our facilities and keep our employees and customers safe. Technology A critical element of a robust multi-layered approach is the development and maintenance of advanced technology systems to support both security and resiliency. Significant investments have been made in the areas of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV), access control systems, and our perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS). In addition, we have created a new Cyber Security program to better monitor and respond to suspicious activities occurring on our network, therefore strengthening our capability to protect our critical information and industrial control systems. The Port Authority operates a 24/7 cyber security operations center that can receive and respond to threats to our network and equipment. Engineered Hardening Solutions Since September 11, 2001, we have made over one billion dollars in asset hardening investments. Although faced with the challenge of retrofitting security features into existing facilities, we have implemented a multitude of hardening solutions such as bollard placement, fencing installation, tunnel and guard post hardening, floating barriers, facade glazing, flood mitigation systems and no trespassing signage. Prospectively, these protective measures are built into new developments or the renovations of existing assets. 3
4 Office of Emergency Management The Port Authority enhances resiliency, response, and recovery through our Office of Emergency Management (OEM). The OEM champions programs that provide the Port Authority with the resources, support, and capabilities to prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate against all-hazards. The OEM is organized into three core mission areas: Emergency Management. Supports the Incident Command response structure at Port Authority during events or incidents. Additionally, responsible for allhazard planning and training for agency personnel and regional partners who will support our response activities to emergencies at our facilities located in New York and New Jersey. Through the use of tabletop and full-scale exercise, over 27,000 Port Authority staff and regional partners have been trained on such topics as Active Shooter response, PATH rail emergencies, terror attacks and other hazards. Grant Management. Administers and manages all federal and state Homeland Security Grants that allows us to harden our assets, invest in technology, initiate new programs, and provide for enhanced police protective services. Risk Management and Resiliency. Responsible for coordinating and implementing the agency-wide all-hazard risk assessment and oversees the Port Authority Business Continuity program. These programs are regularly adapted to meet the needs of the Port Authority with an impact range that stretches from individual employee preparedness to agency-wide, corporate-level resiliency. Federal, State, and Regional Partnerships The Port Authority understands the importance of maintaining strong relationships with our federal, state and local partners. These cooperative partnerships are integral to our intelligence, counterterrorism, cyber security, technology, and training efforts. The support received through these partnerships helps us better secure our assets and the information exchange is mutually beneficial to all partners. Measuring Effectiveness and Performance Assurance In order to maintain a prepared, unified, and accountable security operation, the Port Authority regularly measures, audits and inspects programs and systems. This practice instills a culture of evaluating the effectiveness and integrity of our systems and program performance. The OCSO also maintains its own Quality Assurance Inspections program that evaluates the physical protection strategies employed at the Port Authority. These internal auditing programs allow us to proactively identify and mitigate issues and concerns before our adversaries exploit them. 4
5 Furthermore, in an effort to ensure independent third party review of our security programs, the Port Authority actively participates in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Safety Act program. To date, Port Authority received six (6) awards for designation and one (1) for certification at various facilities. III. The Application of the Multi-Layered Security Approach to PATH In 2015, the PATH system carried over 76.5 million passengers; an average of 265,000 passengers per day. The security of those passengers is paramount. Human Assets We have a police command dedicated to patrolling the thirteen (13) stations and 26 miles of track. The PATH police command has grown by 45% since January Policing methods include: routine uniformed patrols, high visibility emergency service unit random anti-terrorism patrols, the deployment of dedicated Counterterrorism teams, as well as the assignment of explosive detection canine (K-9) units. Police officers assigned to these teams and patrols are trained and equipped in the use of tactical weapons and equipment to include radiation detection capabilities. PAPD efforts to secure the PATH system are further supplemented by a contract security guard force of over 100 security officers who are trained in behavioral recognition techniques and counterterrorism awareness. These security officers are posted at critical locations throughout the system. They also staff a 24/7 Security Operations Center whose core function is to monitor a multitude of CCTV cameras and access control and intrusion alarms that span the entire rail system. Suspicious activity or other emergency conditions are immediately dispatched to PAPD for response. Physical Security As previously discussed, the Port Authority has made significant investments in capital security projects. Specific measures have been taken to harden and protect the PATH system from a variety of man-made and natural hazards. These projects include rightof-way fencing and perimeter protection through the use of bollards, as well as infrastructure strengthening to make the PATH tunnels more resilient to man-made threats. Redundancy is also a critical part of our methodology, and as such we have constructed a new train control center. The existing train control center serves as a redundant backup facility and is also used for training personnel. Technology In addition to CCTV, the Port Authority has invested in other security technology such as: A laser intrusion detection system that helps protect against trespassers entering tunnels from the track. An extensive and robust card access control system, which restricts access to critical areas to authorized personnel only. 5
6 The deployment of sensor and detection devices to help protect against chemical, biological and radiological threats. The use of detailed background and criminal history checks as part of a personnel assurance program to include outside contractors and service providers. The enhancement of public safety communication systems at PATH stations and underground portions of the system. PAPD s intra-operable 800MHz radio system has been installed throughout, enabling PAPD officers responding to an incident from a neighboring command (e.g. Holland Tunnel, Newark Airport, etc.) to talk seamlessly to other PAPD officers assigned to the PATH command. Further, we have deployed antenna networks carrying National Mutual Aid channels in both the UHF and 800MHz bands ( UTAC and 8TAC ) into the PATH underground to assure radio inter-operability with our mutual aid partners, such as NYPD, FDNY, and the City of Jersey City first responder agencies. Quality Assurance and Independent Review In addition to our internal Quality Assurance Inspection program, the Port Authority participates in the Baseline Assessment and Security Enhancement (BASE) program, which is a voluntary program implemented by Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The BASE program assessment is composed of more than 200 questions that review a transit system s security and emergency preparedness posture regarding 17 Security and Emergency Preparedness Action Items. The TSA awards its "Gold Standard" to transit agencies and passenger railroads that achieve the highest rating on the BASE assessment and for building a strong security program. For 2015, TSA has awarded the PATH Security program its Gold Standard for best practices in rail security. Furthermore, in 2011, DHS awarded SAFETY ACT designation status to a protective system put in place to protect PATH underwater tunnels. IV. How the Federal Government Can help? Grant Funding. The Port Authority keeps security as a top priority as evidenced by the investments in resources it makes to that purpose. Currently, agency-wide, 24% of personnel and 22% of the operating budget is allocated to security. Since 2002, $1.2 billion dollars has been spent in capital security projects and another $900 million in capital security projects have been identified for the coming years. A critical resource is the Federal grant funding program. This funding source is essential to help us continue to protect our facilities from evolving threats. A large source of funds for our capital security projects comes from the Transit Security Grant Program (TSGP). In 2016, the maximum amount of federal funding through this program was set at $87 million nationwide for all transit operators. This amount, when distributed, can only fund smaller capital security projects. An increase in TSGP funding 6
7 would allow transit operators to pursue larger capital security projects that would better reduce the risk to those who use our facilities. Additionally, the period of performance for grant funding is limited to three (3) years, which hinders our ability to plan, design and construct larger scale projects. An increase in the period of performance from three (3) years to five (5) years would allow us to plan larger scale and more effective capital security projects. DHS Science and Technology It would be valuable if the DHS Office of Science and Technology would publish a guide for review by decision-makers that will aid in their selection of effective and proven technologies and equipment that would better protect the public and the infrastructure they depend upon. V. Closing Remarks In closing, I would like to thank the members of the Emergency Preparedness, Response and Communications subcommittee for inviting me to testify on behalf of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey regarding this critical topic of protecting our passengers. The Port Authority operates the busiest and most important transportation facilities in the region, as such, we take on the tremendous responsibility of maintaining safety and security. The Port Authority will continue to make enhancements to its policing and security programs and systems in an effort to stay current and adapt to the everchanging threat landscape. I would like to thank our congressional delegation for their continuing support that allows us to better serve our employees and customers and better protect our regional critical transportation infrastructure. 7

Anritsu has launched it's new XR75 X-ray Inspection System. The XR75 maintains the performance of existing systems whilst improving the ease of use and cost of ownership, tripling the life expectancy of standard X-ray equipment.
Available in Australia & New Zealand from Walls Machinery, the precision-engineered, high-sensitivity XR75 series is the latest in advanced inspection systems, and sets the standard for improving product quality and safety.
Recognizing both the short-term and long-term needs of today's processors and manufacturers, the XR75 was designed to provide excellent sensitivity at lower energy levels for extended life cycles.
Overall, the XR75 can reduce lifetime operating costs by over 20%, as compared to other systems, making X-ray inspection more affordable to purchase, own and operate.
Anritsu X-ray Inspection Systems are built with a commitment to safety and high accuracy detection. The XR75 further refines Anritsu's exclusive HD Imaging Technology capable of detecting as small as 0.4mm diameter metal and 1.0mm diameter glass and stone. In addition to industry leading contaminant detection that finds foreign materials other systems may miss, the XR75 Inspection System can also pinpoint product shape defects and check for product integrity.
Sanitary design was improved in this series with angled surfaces for water run-off, removable curtains for easy cleaning and tool-less belt removal. In addition, user-friendliness was engineered into the XR75 series, taking of use to the next level and operators will benefit from easier setup and simplified menu structures.

Public Art acquisition
From late October to mid December last year, the City of Perth hosted the largest public art event in the world, Cow Parade Perth 2016. This event featured 40 life size cows across various city locations. In keeping with other Cow Parades across the globe, the cows arrived as blank canvases and were crafted, sculpted and painted by some of Western Australia's prominent artists and fashion designers. The transformed cows were then exhibited for six weeks throughout city malls, parks, iconic buildings and precincts, with some auctioned at the Telethon Ball raising money to support child health research.
Given the School's history as a farm, it seemed a good opportunity to acquire a cow. We have purchased Amilita, by husband and wife artists Audrey Fernandes Satar and Mahomad Arif Satar which was located near the Bell Tower. She is now located on the lawn in front of the Technology Centre and will move to various parts of the School during the course of the year before being permanently homed. She has attracted a deal of attention from the students. Families visiting for the P&F Picnic and Entertainment event on Wednesday 15 February will be able to see her and read the plaque telling the artists' story.
