Ticks and flies infecting cattle with anaplasmosis early this year
While the moderate winter brought much-needed moisture to forage supplies, it's also created a firestorm of ticks and flies early this spring. Cattle are just as much in jeopardy from tick diseases as humans.
"We're seeing a tremendous number of ticks in southern Missouri," says Eldon Cole, a University of Missouri Extension livestock specialist in Mt. Vernon.
Ticks and biting flies are the main method of transfer for anaplasmosis, an infectious disease that causes the destruction of red blood cells. The disease is caused by a minute parasite, Anaplasma marginale, found in the red blood cells of infected cattle and other animals. Ticks and flies can transfer blood from infected cattle to others in the herd.
On Monday, Cole said he found ticks on the ears of the heifers he was ear-tagging in southern Missouri. A couple of the heifers had large areas on the tips of their ears with hair missing. One heifer had six to 10 large ticks attached.
Cole has not identified the type of ticks that were present, but is working with an entomologist to identify them. He says there are several products labeled for the control of ticks on beef cattle. Fly tags, sprays, backrubber solutions and pour-ons can be effective and can help control horn flies at the same time.
Young cattle are more likely to recover from anaplasmosis, says Craig Payne, a University of Missouri Extension veterinarian. The first clue to an outbreak is dead cows. Older cows that become infected will abort their calf even if it is caught early and treated. (See below for clinical signs by age.)
A loss of five head due to anaplasmosis early this spring in southern Ohio is enough cause for alarm. These five head, added to the 17 head that died in that area last year, led Caleb Grooms, owner of Chapparal Feeds in West Union, Ohio, to organize an informational meeting two weeks ago to educate local cattlemen about the disease. Thirty local cattle producers attended the meeting, wanting information on how to prevent animal loss and transmission.
"With the mild winter, this is something we are going to be fighting all year," Grooms says. "What we're recommending is feeding Aureomycin at the rate of 5,600 g per ton. The reason for that is the Purina mineral we sell is a 4 oz. per head per day mineral, which at 5,600 g per ton gives the cow enough prevention up to a 1,400-lb. cow."
A variety of mineral dosages are available from other sources, Grooms says, but he advises producers to make sure that animals are getting enough medication for their weight.
Producers should also take steps on the farm to prevent the disease from spreading. If cattle are being vaccinated, needles should be changed or sterilized between vaccinations because of the risk of transfer.
"We haven't seen any new fatalities in the last month or so, but we are trying to get ahead of this. Especially in older cows, since they are more susceptible than younger cattle, as the heat picks up and increases animal stress in July, August and September, the impact of anaplasmosis will intensify," Grooms says.
Normally a southern problem, infection of the disease seems to be moving farther north. Whether through natural migration or higher amounts of animal movements from last year's drought, the cause for the increase still isn't clear.
"We're going to be watching our local situation pretty closely," Grooms says. "If we see we need to have another meeting, we will. We had a good response, even from people that couldn't make the meeting, and we basically sat down and did a quick one-on-one discussion about their current practices on the farm and feed analysis."
Symptoms of Anaplasmosis
Clinical signs of anaplasmosis are related to the age of the animal. Calves under six months of age become infected, rarely show clinical signs, and remain carriers. Carrier animals seldom exhibit clinical signs when challenged with A. marginale later in life. A carrier animal may or may not give a positive reaction to serologic tests for A. marginale. A. marginale bodies may or may not be demonstrated in the stained blood smear of the carrier animal. However, the carrier's blood is infective for the susceptible animal. Yearling to 18-month-old cattle will develop symptoms. The clinical signs are mild, and these animals become carriers. In adults, signs are progressively severe; the animals will either die or become carriers.
The incubation or prepatent period is three to eight weeks, which is the time between inoculation of the infectious agent and occurrence of A. marginale bodies in 1% of the red blood cells. The developmental stage is about four to nine days and is the time when most of the characteristic signs of anaplasmosis appear. During this phase, from 10% to greater than 75% of the red blood cells may be infected.
Clinical signs in adult animals include depression, off feed, fever up to 107°F, anemia or paleness and/or yellow mucous membranes, rapid respiration, urine may be yellowish in color, occasional belligerence, dehydration and constipation, and sudden death. Most deaths occur in the later stages of the developmental stage or early convalescent stage.
Be certain to visit with a large animal veterinarian about prevention of the disease in your herd and treatment of any infected animals. Anaplasmosis is a herd problem and should be approached as such. Outbreaks occur when there is no control program, anaplasmosis carriers and susceptible animals are present in the herd, and vectors (mechanical and/or biological) for transmission are present.

After watching the brilliant Israeli rock opera 'War' on stage, and blogging about it, I have been corresponding by email with musician Kobi Vitman who created it based on his experiences in 2002 as a reserve infantry soldier during Operation Defensive Shield, and the PTSD that followed. A couple of months ago, when the original cast recording was issued, I tried to convey to Vitman my own experiences as a listener and a fan of the genre, emphasizing the difficulty in trying to track down these musical gems once the curtain closes on the original show. In accordance with my beliefs about file sharing, copyright laws and my own experiences searching for recordings of Israeli musicals, I tried to push for making the entire album available online.
Well, I am so very happy to announce that as of this week, the album is indeed available online and for free. You can still purchase the physical CD, booklet and all, for 40NIS, but if you just want the MP3 files, they are now legally available on WarRockOpera.com. You can still watch the show live in its acoustic version. Check the website for details.

The Stratford venue has been the centre of a glorious fortnight of sport, culminating in Sunday night's spectacular closing ceremony.
But its future has long been the subject of debate, with the Hammers initially denied tenancy last October following a legal dispute involving Tottenham and Leyton Orient.
The need to preserve a home for athletics at the stadium was central to London 2012's legacy aims, but Allardyce insists the stadium and surrounding park will fall into decline without the regular use provided by Premier League football.
He told the Times: "If they keep it for athletics, the only time it will ever get a big crowd again after the Olympics is when they hold the World Championships there in five years' time.
"You only have to look around the world at some of the Olympic Stadiums that have been built. They're white elephants now. There are weeds growing there. Look at the Bird's Nest in Beijing. Look at Athens.
"The Olympic Park is a fantastic place, but it can't be left to rack and ruin. If a club with the history and fanbase and potential of West Ham don't go there, the concern would be that the park is left empty the vast majority of the time.
"I can understand some West Ham fans feeling that they don't want to leave the history and tradition of Upton Park, but it's an incredible opportunity for the club to move forward."

My husband has taken up backpacking as a hobby. Little did I know the extent of gear needed for such a minimalist activity! I never gave much thought to specific gear that is needed to ensure safety while out in the wilderness. Whether on an overnight trip or a longer, extended trip, having the proper gear can literally be the difference between comfort and misery or even life and death.
This has been a learning experience for me as I've watched my husband start out with basic gear like a backpack, sleeping bag, first aid kit, tent etc. then move onto more obscure gear like a headlamp, bear canister, backpacking stove and sanitation trowel (don't ask). The list can and does go on and on, with the ultimate goal being to pack as lightly as possible, while making sure you have all that you need for an enjoyable experience.
One aspect of backpacking that cannot be overlooked, even on the shortest trips, is a way to have clean, fresh drinking water. It is not always possible or practical to bring all of the drinking water needed with you from home. While the water flowing down a mountain stream may look pure and refreshing, it is likely full of bacteria, parasites and other contaminates. Drinking contaminated water can lead to a host of problems, least of which can include nausea, fever, diarrhea, vomiting and intense abdominal cramping.
Knowing this, I am determined to make sure my husband has safe drinking water each time he sets off on an adventure. Luckily, there are many options available to achieve this goal. FiltersFast.com has a variety of reusable, lightweight water bottles with built in filtration systems, such as:
- Katadyn MyBottle Water Purifier
- Clear2GO – 20 oz. Vanity Bottle With Filter
- Sawyer SP149 – Outdoor Filter Water Bottle
Aside from water bottles, other options include:
- The Aquamira Water Purifier Tablets – Drop specialized tablets into your water source to purifier it before drinking.
- Sawyer SP181 – All In One Filter System – This kit gives you options as to purifying a smaller 32 oz drinking pouch or a large 5 gallon bucket in case you set-up camp for an extended period or are purifying water for an entire group.
- Sawyer SP161 – Water Filtration System – This allows you to put contaminated water into a 2 liter bag, and then filter it out through a tube.
As you can see, there are numerous ways to purify drinking water while out in the wilderness. It is such an important safety measure and cannot be disregarded. If you have a backpacker or any kind of outdoorsy person in your life, consider visiting FiltersFast.com this holiday season for a gift that will ensure safety and provide peace of mind.

Typhoon Enterprise Company Ltd (1 review)
Typhoon Enterprise Company Ltd Hawthorn Berry
Plums = Prunes. Like the Alamo, never forget. Also never forget that in the East, their prunes are smoked or something because everything plum/prune flavored tastes like you are eating their Western equivalent at a bonfire. Smokes. It's like chipotle fruit. Now allow me to read the ingredients to this drink because it should be the best drink I've ever had:
Water. Sugar. Hawthorn berry. Plum. Hibiscus flower. Licorice.
Could this drink sound any better? I mean, I don't know what hawthorn berry tastes like, but it's a berry. I get it. The plum/prune, I can say with most certainty, ruined this drink. I cannot taste anything but that. I love hibiscus drinks and love licorice and those are non-existent and that blows. It smells and to a lesser extent tastes like fruity beef jerky. Man. Editor Dan, the bequeather of this drink, was right. It sucks and should be better. If I could dissect this drink, I would do it in a heartbeat. Take all the plum/prune DNA out of it, add some water to put it back together, drink it again and love it.
Drats. This sucked.

The flavors of summer bathed in a delicious red wine syrup.
Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 5 mins
Extra Time: 12 hrs
(for refrigeration)
Combine red wine, sugar and water in small saucepan. Bring to a boil, remove from heat. Chill in refrigerator until cold.
Transfer syrup to large bowl. Add nectarine, peach and berry slices to the syrup.
Serve compote in chilled bowls.
The following serving suggestions not included in nutritional analysis:
1) Red Wine Syrup: The sugar in the original recipe has been reduced from 1 cup to 1/3 cup. If a sweeter syrup is desired, add an additional 1/2 to 2/3 cup sugar.
2) Simple Syrup can be used instead of Red Wine Syrup: 1 cup sugar and 3 1/2 cups water. Use same preparation as for Red Wine Syrup.
For fullest flavor, the secret to this recipe is to cover and refrigerate for 12-24 hours before serving.

Our obsession with spicy tuna rolls has led bluefin tuna to the breaking point. The bluefin fishery is on the verge of collapse, scientists said in a new report released this week, The New York Times reports.
The report was created by the International Scientific Committee to Study the Tuna and Tuna-Like Species of the North Pacific Ocean and analyzed catch data from 1952 to 2011. Data included the number of fish caught, how big they were and how much effort (i.e. time spent fishing) was put into the catch. They used this data to model how big the population is and how it has changed over time.
There's no good news in the report: They found that bluefin tuna population has dropped more than 96 percent from its unfinished levels. This is similar to the drastic impact fishing has had on other species, like sharks.
Who is to blame? Most of the fishing of bluefin tuna happens off the coast of Japan, which has virtually no limits on tuna fishing. 80 percent of bluefin tuna are used for sushi — stuffed into our mouths in the form of spicy tuna rolls and toro sashimi.
As the fish get more and more rare, their prices will continue to skyrocket. On Jan. 5 a large (488 pound) bluefin tuna sold at auction for 1.8 million dollars.

Random DU notes
— A recent bus crash involving the ECHL's Elmira Jackals in Harborcreek, Pa., brought memories of the story of Joe Sakic surviving a bus crash while playing for the Swift Current Broncos of the WHL. But with the ECHL club, nobody died. Former DU forward Kevin Ulanski was on the bus, sleeping in a rear bunk, according to Pioneers assistant coach Steve Miller. He was not hurt. Miller said former DU forward Luke Fulghum, who graduated with Ulanski and also plays for the Jackals, was not on the bus because he did not make the trip because of injury. The bus reportedly hit a tractor-trailer at 4:30 a.m. Thursday morning. Only the bus driver, Kenneth Nance, 56, who apparently fell asleep at the wheel, was injured.
— Recruiting. Miller told me the school has recieved letters of intent from the three players expected to join D John Lee in the 2008 freshman scholarship class. F's Joe Colborne, Nate Dewhurst and Stepan Novotny have each been signed and sealed. Lee signed a year ago. On a related note, D David Carle, brother of former DU All-American defenseman Matt Carle of the San Jose Sharks, is visiting Denver in January. He also is eying BC and BU and several other national powers.
— Sid the Kid connections. I'll have a separate blog on this in a day or two, but DU freshman goalie Marc Cheverie and Pios sophomore center Tyler Ruegsegger go way back with the best hockey player in the world. Cheverie grew up with Sidney Crosby in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, and Ruegsegger, a year younger than Crosby, attended Shattuck-St Mary's in Fairbault, Minn., with Sid. Marc and Tyler have some good stories about playing with Sidney, and I'll share them soon. — MC

From NPR: When he arranged the date at Folsom, Cash at least knew he'd have a captive audience. "One thing he liked about playing prisons: If he did something the audience didn't like, they couldn't leave," W.S. "Fluke" Holland, Cash's drummer at the time, says. Holland didn't expect much would come of the two sessions the band played that day. "That shows how wrong I was."
When the album At Folsom Prison was released the following May, it topped the Billboard country charts and Cash's career took off again. He recorded another best-selling album from San Quentin Prison in 1969.

President Barack Obama says it is "possible" that the Russian government would try to influence the U.S. elections by hacking into the Democratic National Committee systems and leaking the party's emails.
In an interview with "Today" show co-host Savannah Guthrie, Obama noted that while the FBI is still investigating what happened, "what we do know is that the Russians hack our systems," government and private.
"But, what the motives were in terms of the leaks, I can't say directly. What I do know is that Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed admiration for Vladimir Putin," Obama said.

Pressed on if he's suggesting that Russian president Putin might be motivated to prefer Trump in the White House, Obama said, "I am basing this on what Mr. Trump himself has said. And I think that Trump's gotten pretty favorable coverage back in Russia."
The full interview with the president will air Wednesday morning at 7 a.m. on the "Today" show.

Reigning Olympic downhill champion Lindsey Vonn said Wednesday she is "feeling good" about her rehabilitation progress since suffering a knee injury during a training mishap last week.
She still hopes to compete in the Sochi Winter Games less than three months away and left the door open to a return to the slopes next week.
"The fall caused my knee to give out,'' Vonn told Matt Lauer on Wednesday's "Today" show. "If I hadn't had my brace on, I definitely would not have had anything left in my knee. It was one of those fluke-y things that sometimes happens. Unfortunately, it was really bad timing for me, but I'm still confident. I still feel like I have a lot left to achieve this season. I just have to kind of take it day by day right now, but I still have time before Sochi."
U.S. & World
The 29-year-old fell during a training run at Copper Mountain in Colorado, partially tearing one of her reconstructed ligaments in her surgically-repaired right knee. She also bruised her right shoulder blade and sustained minor abrasions on her face.
"I was training downhill, (and) it was kind of a tricky course,'' said Vonn, who was supposed to make her return this week from a serious right knee injury she suffered in a crash last February. "There was a compression turn. It was breaking up because there was a lot of guys training on the course with me, and my ski just kind of tracked out. I caught my edge and flipped over my skis and went headfirst into the fence."
In the earlier accident at the Alpine skiing world championships in Schlamding, Austria, on Feb. 5, Vonn tore her anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in her right knee and fractured her tibia.
The latest crash kept Vonn from competing at this week's World Cup races in Beaver Creek, Colo. But there's a chance she'll be at the starting gate at the World Cup event at Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada, on Dec. 6, she said.
Even though her knee feels stable during rehab "squat" exercises, the real test will come when she starts getting on snow, Vonn told Lauer.
"It's one thing to feel stable while you're doing squats, it's another thing to feel stable while you're actually racing at 90 miles an hour," Vonn explained. "There definitely is a long ways to go there, but I'm confident that it's going to be okay. At this point, that's all I can do — is stay positive. I'm kind of out of options at this point. I'm hoping that it's going to be stable and I'm hoping that I continue racing."
Vonn, the most accomplished female skier in U.S. history, is three wins shy of tying the women's record of 62 World Cup race victories set by Austria's Annemarie Moser-Proell.
"I'm working as hard as I can, so I'm just fingers crossed that I can be racing next week because I've worked so hard all summer to get back to this point," Vonn told Lauer. "I just want to get back in the starting gate."

Philadelphia Phillies victorious on celiac disease awareness night at the ballpark.
The Philadelphia Phillies supported NFCA and other area support groups by hosting celiac disease awareness night at Citizens Bank Park on Monday, and commemorated the occasion with a 10-1 victory over the Chicago Cubs!
Phillies host Celiac Awareness Night
Club raises money, spreads info on digestive disease
By David Gurian-Peck / MLB.com
PHILADELPHIA — The Phillies hosted the second Celiac Awareness Night at Citizens Bank Park on Monday, raising money for and spreading information about the autoimmune digestive disease that affects roughly three million Americans.
Celiacs cannot eat gluten, a protein particle found in wheat, barley, rye and all of their derivatives.
In conjunction with the Phillies, the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) sold over 500 tickets for Monday night's game against the Cubs, raising over $2,000. Aramark set up a stand of gluten-free food items behind the section, including hot dogs, cheeseburgers, chicken fingers, Redridge beer and Woodchuck draft cider.
Most of these are offered every night at select locations throughout Citizens Bank Park, which for three consecutive years has been named the No. 1 vegetarian ballpark by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
"So many parents and concerned fans give me a call and want to see what's available to them," said David Lippman, director of concessions for Aramark. "A lot of folks were just thrilled that they have something here. They can come here, enjoy their team and eat something. "
Oz Ostrofsky — whose wife, Nany Lozoff, has celiac disease and whose daughter is gluten-intolerant — was selected to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
"It's an honor to be nominated by the NFCA and it's great to be on the field with the World [Series] champions," said Ostrofsky, a former chef who has worked to increase the number of gluten-free items in Philadelphia restaurants. "It's about making it easy for everyone. So no one's 'special needs,' no one has to go out of their way."
Indeed, awareness was the No. 1 objective of Monday's charity event, since 97 percent of celiacs are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Celiacs who, unaware of their condition, continue to eat products with gluten suffer nutritional problems, especially anemia; reproductive disorders, which affects half of all women with celiac disease; insufficient growth in children; reduced bone density; neurological disorders; and some cancers. Although research is under way, there is currently no cure or vaccine; the only treatment is a lifelong gluten-free diet.
"How could you get more awareness than to be with the Phillies?" said Nancy Ginter, NFCA director of operations. "It's a great forum, and everybody's watching the Phillies. … What we want to engender is instead of saying, 'Oh my God, I've got celiac disease, and this will be horrible,' to say, 'No, it's great. Now you know what's wrong with you.'"

The frequencies used by GPS systems are being jammed routinely in the UK by individuals attempting to block the location tracking systems used by delivery trucks and anti-theft systems, a new study has found.
Funded to look into the issue of GPS interference in a systematic way by the Government's Technology Strategy Board, the Sentinel project discovered evidence of a surprisingly large underground of GPS jamming across the country after starting monitoring in January 2011 using a network of 20 road sensors.
One of the sensors by a busy motorway recorded more than 60 jamming incidents over a six-month period around the 5GHz band reserved for GPS, with the project detecting an around ten per month across the whole network.
Although these numbers sound small, they offer a tiny window a problem that must on the basis of only a handful of sensors be far larger.
GPS jammers that plug into 12 volt vehicle outlets are cheap and easy to obtain, but the growing extent of their use has not been reliably documented until now. Exactly who would be interested in using them is hard to know although the two most likely culprits are van drivers attempting to defeat their company's GPS-tracking systems as well as vehicle thieves.
Growing use of GPS jamming would have a negative effect on legitimate users, with signals masked for 200-300 metres around each moving device.
"The next step is to develop the system further so that it can be used for enforcement, so that you can detect a jammer in use and then relate it to the driver that's using it," Charles Curry of Chronos Technology, which is running the project, told the BBC.
The GPS satellite system was built by the US during the 1980s for military purposes before being made available in a less precise version for civilian uses later on.
It remains the dominant navigation technology in the world despite rivals such as the European Space Agency's Galileo network having nipping at its heels. Galileo is not expected to start operation until 2014.

LONDON (Reuters) - This summer's Olympics games in Britain's capital generated 28 percent less carbon dioxide emissions than was forecast as energy use at venues was cut, the London Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) said on Wednesday.
The organizers had promised the London Olympics and Paralympic Games, held over around four weeks from July to September, would be "the greenest games ever" and provide a blueprint of sustainability for future games to follow.
The Olympic Park, located in a once derelict and contaminated area of east London, was transformed into a green haven for wildlife and the organizers have provided regular updates on their progress towards cutting waste, carbon and improving energy efficiency.
But they also came under fire for cancelling plans for a large wind turbine to help supply renewable energy to the park.
LOCOG activities directly associated with the games, such as energy use at venues, transport services and the supply and use of materials, generated 311,000 metric tons (342,819 tons) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), compared to 434,000 metric tons estimated earlier this year, the committee said in a report.
Energy use at Olympics' venues in particular was 31,000 metric tons of CO2e lower than expected. One way this was achieved was by renting temporary seating and other infrastructure rather than buying new and reducing floor space at venues.
Carbon emissions cuts were also made in transport as many officials, media and teams used existing public services and the Olympic Torch relay was kept in the country, avoiding the long international flights of previous relays, LOCOG said.
The overall carbon footprint of the games, from all construction work, new transport infrastructure, staging the events and spectators, was 3.3 million metric tons of CO2e, slightly lower than the 3.4 million metric tons estimated in 2009.
More than 11 million spectators attended the games, along with a workforce of around 200,000 people, and tens of thousands of athletes, officials and dignitaries.
LOCOG said due to the sheer popularity of events, spectator-related emissions were much higher than expected at 913,000 metric tons of CO2e compared to the 670,000 metric tons forecast.
"There is little that London 2012 could have done to impact directly on the majority of the spectator travel footprint as it was largely made up of air travel by overseas visitors," it said.
The Olympic park, which will be fully open to the public by the Spring of 2014 and renamed the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, should continue the green legacy of the games, it said.
A large amount of materials used in construction and redevelopment will be reused and recycled, a zero-carbon neighborhood developed and low-carbon energy supply created, the report added.

Rothbard in the New Yorker
Here's something you don't see every day: A discussion of Murray Rothbard's anarcho‐capitalism in the New Yorker, in a broader review of books on "anarchism" emerging from the Occupy movement. Author Kelefa Sanneh writes:
In fact, there is one anarchist who could be considered influential in Washington, but he wasn't among the activists who participated in the Occupy movement — he died nearly twenty years ago. His name is Murray Rothbard, and, among small‐government Republicans, he is something of a cult hero. He was Ron Paul's intellectual mentor, which makes him the godfather of the godfather of the Tea Party. Justin Amash, a young Republican congressman from Michigan and a rising star in the Party, hangs a framed portrait of him on his office wall.
Rothbard was an anarchist, but also a capitalist. "True anarchism will be capitalism, and true capitalism will be anarchism," he once said, and he sometimes referred to himself by means of a seven‐syllable honorific: "anarcho‐capitalist." Graeber thinks that governments treat their citizens "like children," and that, when governments disappear, people will behave differently. Anarcho‐capitalists, on the contrary, believe that, without government, people will behave more or less the same: we will be just as creative or greedy or competent as we are now, only freer. Instead of imagining a world without drastic inequality, anarcho‐capitalists imagine a world where people and their property are secured by private defense agencies, which are paid to keep the peace. Graeber doesn't consider anarcho‐capitalists to be true anarchists; no doubt the feeling is mutual.
"Cult hero … among small‐government Republicans" seems a real stretch. But maybe among Ron Paul and Justin Amash, which is more congressional fans than most economist‐philosophers have. Author Sanneh no doubt learned about Rothbard when he wrote a long and fairly sympathetic profile of Ron Paul on the campaign trail.
At Libertarianism.org Aaron Powell examines the New Yorker's examination of anarchism, both capitalist and anti‐capitalist. Also at Libertarianism.org find out more about Murray Rothbard, including some exclusive videos.

You've lost your smartphone. Or more worrying, it may have been stolen. Like most people, you've entrusted it with more and more of your personal data. Your first thought: just how secure are those emails, contact list, work documents and that app to access your bank accounts?
Almost all smartphones offer some sort of "lock screen" option, many featuring a password, PIN or pattern of screen touches or swipe gestures the user can set up.
They offer a layer of security, to be sure, but are not foolproof, and some surveys have found fewer that half of smartphone owners have bothered to set up a lock screen option on their devices.
And since you're constantly using your smartphone in public, the method to unlock your phone could be visible to prying eyes.
"For example, a thief sitting on a bus may notice the four characters that an unsuspecting person entered on the person's smartphone," a patent application recently filed by Apple says.
The application, titled "Image-Based Authentication," suggests an entirely new take on securing a smartphone or other mobile device like a tablet computer.
The system, the application explains, would replace validation using text or touch by "(1) selecting at least one image that depicts one or more objects with which the user should be familiar, where the image is stored persistently on the computing device, and (2) displaying the image. An object may be a person's face, for example."
In other words, the security barrier intended to keep unwanted eyes out of your smartphone could be a picture of your favorite Aunt Claire, presented as your lock screen and requiring you to correctly identify who it is.
You know your Aunt Claire, of course; it's highly unlikely a thief does.
The patent application includes mention of "multiple rounds," suggesting layers of security by displaying more than one image that has to be correctly identified.
So, Aunt Claire; correct. Your dog Biscuit; correct. And that generic-looking shot of you on the beach? Malibu. Correct.
That would be a lot of text to enter, of course, so an image in the application suggests instead a list of possible identification answers could be presented along with the image; a convenient single tap on the right one would suffice.
Convenient is a significant word, and is likely why so many smartphone owners choose not to utilize any security technique. Who wants to have to enter a password, PIN or touch the four corners of the phone screen in a particular pattern every time the phone is whipped out?
So smartphone makers continue looking for ways to offer increased security for users they might consider convenient to use; fingerprint scanners and facial recognition using a phone's camera are being investigated by several manufacturers.
Still, whether it's a password, a swipe, a fingerprint or dearly beloved Aunt Claire, security will only work if the user uses it.
Which brings us back to the half of all smartphone owners who don't bother to secure the considerable chunk of their personal life they're blithely carrying about in public where it can be lost -- or worse.
Walking up to their bank's ATM, it's not likely they consider punching in their 4-digit PIN inconvenient. You'd think their smartphone -- and its contents -- are worthy of the same.


text: As the smartphone market gets heavily populated by Android and iOS devices, newer revelations in the form of Windows phone models provide a refreshing change from the customary arrivals. The flagship devices prove handful competitors to the eye-grabbers which are already available in the market. Off the top of the shelf and having excellent specifications, is the Nokia Lumia 1520 which was officially announced for a price of $199.99 with a two-year contract. Continue reading

I'm going to the Dum Dum Girls tonight...
And now I'm excited, cos I just watched a couple of videos and I think that rather than the slightly twee, cutely nostalgic show that I thought I was gonna get, (admittedly after having listened to only a skant few songs), I reckon going to be more like some sort of intense, goth/garage/60s pop fusion…Er, ok, that sounds like a really lazy description, but I guess what I mean I was quite taken aback by the look of the band, particularly Dee Dee, the founder and original solo member of the DDG, cos she reminds me more of Mary Timony, rather than the expected drifty-garage-overworn white tshirt-&-blue jeans person, or floaty floral dress girl, all of whom I am a bit sick of looking at. Don't get me wrong, these days I really love the Vivian Girls, but you know I can't go past a band with a bit of darkness hanging around.
Speaking of MT, funnily enough, I kept seeing this picture of Dee Dee:
which I could've sworn was a picture of Mary Timony. I didn't understand why it kept being used in Dum Dum Girls articles, so then I googled Mary Timony, and realised that I was actually thinking of this picture:
No, I don't really know how I made that mistake either.
I have so far come across the Dum Dum Girls being described as a mashing together of the Bangles & the Cure, and the Shangri-Las and the Jesus and Mary Chain. I'll give my own verdict in a couple of days.
Meanwhile, have a look at these clips on Tobi Vail's Jigsaw Underground blog.

New Bikini Kill archive
Members of Bikini Kill have set up a new archive, where people can document their personal experiences of the band. It's an interesting idea, and there are some great stories on there, particularly about people's gig-going experiences. However, I can't help but remember an interview that Kathi Wilcox did with a New Zealand zinester years ago when Bikini Kill were touring Australia. The girl asked why Bikini Kill hadn't been to New Zealand, and Kathi had made some vague comment about people telling BK that no one had heard of them in New Zealand, so they didn't bother to come. Lame! Not that I'm bitter, or nothing…

Will Amazon's facial-recognition tech enable mass surveillance?
has been selling a facial-recognition system to
, sparking fears that the technology will one day power mass surveillance.
On Tuesday, the American Civil Liberties Union and 35 other advocacy group sent a letter to the company's CEO
Jeff Bezos
, demanding that he stop providing the technology to law enforcement.
The technology, called
Amazon Rekognition
, can identify people's faces in digital images and video. Police in Oregon and Florida have been using the system to help them solve crimes, but the ACLU argues that it's ripe for abuse.
"With Rekognition, a government can now build a system to automate the identification and tracking of anyone," the ACLU said in a blog post.
The organization is worried the technology will be incorporated into police body cameras and surveillance feeds to track protestors, immigrants, or anyone a city wishes to monitor. "People should be free to walk down the street without being watched by the government," the ACLU said.
Amazon didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
The concerns highlight the growing debate over facial-recognition systems and their potential role in crime-fighting. Will the technology do more harm than good?
Amazon has focused on the positives, marketing the technology in Florida and Oregon as a "public safety" tool. It's helped law enforcement, for example, identify criminal suspects from security camera footage by comparing a suspect's face with available mugshots. Police in Oregon say the technology allows officers to identify suspects in minutes as opposed to two or three days.
In one case, the system identified a shoplifter who was captured in a photo walking out of a hardware store. In another incident, Oregon police identified a man who used a stolen credit card, despite the low-resolution image of the suspect.
However, the ACLU is worried the same technology could facilitate a creepy surveillance state. For example, Rekognition can detect and index up to 100 faces in a single image, a feature that Amazon openly touts.
"With this improvement, you can accurately capture demographics and analyze sentiments for all faces in group photos, crowded events, and public places such as airports and department stores," according to marketing materials.
Last month, an Amazon executive said the system was also being used in Orlando, Florida, to match faces captured by street surveillance cameras to photos uploaded in a database to keep tabs on high-profile individuals, like the mayor, or identify persons of interests.
However, the technology is far from flawless. Through an open records request, the ACLU obtained documents showing that in Oregon, the system made errors when trying to recognize criminal suspects. For instance, it linked an image of OJ Simpson to a photo of a white man with a mustache, claiming a 93 percent match.
Nevertheless, the documents show that Amazon is pushing the system's use in law enforcement. The company has been encouraging police in Oregon to speak with other government customers, including one that manufactures body cameras.
The Amazon technology also appears to be pretty inexpensive. In Oregon, it cost police about $400 to build a facial-recognition system that indexed 300,000 mugshots of former convicts.
"If Rekognition is not reined in, its use is also certain to spread," the ACLU said.

What would be your weirdest backyard rule?
What would be your weirdest backyard rule?
Member of MSC - Murali Supporters Club
I'm not too dissimilar a batsman to Bradman.
Both of us have batting averages below 100.
wehn im batting its batters responsablity to get the ball from over the fence. - "mate u hit it"
when im batting the bowler has to get it "mate not my fault ur ****'
haha usually only works for an innings each
My 2008/09 stats
Games: 10 Innings: 10 Nout Outs: 3 Runs: 489 Average: 69.86 Highest: 154 Fifties: 0 Hundreds: 3
Catches: 7
If you could hit the ball through the hole in the shed, you would get 49 runs.
ball in plantpot= 10 runs
We use to have a rule where the loser mowed the lawn.
However, backyard cricket is a thing of the past in my household now.
if u hit the ball over the fence it was usually six and out but then we decided if u could hit the stumps from the other side of the fence u could bat again
We used to have a similar thing. If you hit a 6, if you could gather it in a certain amount of time, you could bat again.
into the open window of our shed = 200 runs (its like 1/2 foot wide)
this is in our old houses' front yard, at the end of the driveway was our street then a slight hill and footpath and then a very busy highway, and the rule was if you hit it and it landed on the highway road on the full thats out but if it landed in the middle grassed bit or over the highway which was about a 80 metre hit, it wasnt out. we had some nervous times trying to fetch the ball of the road in peak hour traffic.
Dream XI: M Hyder, J Linker, M Clock, S Wetsin, A Simms, A Golcrhist, B Hugg, S Worde, B Leap, J Giuseppe, G MacGrith
Playing cricket in the garage with the one door open, just in front of the bastman in the garage is an attic. If the ball is hit up there three possibilities.
it stays there = out + batsman has to climb up to fetch
falls down and is caught = out
falls down but is not caught = not out
hit against the wall = six
hit over the wall = 6 and out
Me and my brother play; ball in platpot: your out!!Originally Posted by The Baconator
"Australia are playing like chameleons. They have adjusted their colour according to the surface and texture of the pitch."
If the ball lands in any plant it's out.
If the ball goes into the neighbours house you were out. If it broke anything in the neighbours house you lost the next batting turn also and it went to the player who went and fetched the ballOriginally Posted by Buddhmaster
Where i play - the weirdest rule is:
In the pool on the full is out... OR
Can't get out first or second ball... OR
2 x probable LBW's = out
"We didn't underestimate them. They were just a lot better than we thought."
Hit it into the neighbours yard without the bowler standing a chance of stopping it no run. Stoppable runs count. Hit it back, catchable next door, six. Chip it next door not catchable, no run. Hit it for six without the bowler having a chance, six and out. Hit the nextdoor neighbours house on the full, no run and out. 5 overs, 3 wickets, 2 overs pace, 2 overs spin, 1 of choise
Supported XI
Tamim Iqbal, JA Burns, UT Khawaja, *SPD Smith, Mahmudullah, C de Grandhomme, +AT Carey, PJ Cummins, Rashid Khan, Mustafizur Rahman, JP Behrendorff.
RIP Fardin. RIP Craigos. RIP Prince.

Over the years, we at Aberdeen
Tax Relief have
found that most tax problems begin with the Taxpayer failing to file their
annual tax returns. What many people don't understand is that when you fail
to file your tax return the IRS will file it for you instead. This is called
"Substitute Filing". Since the IRS does not know what your
deductions are, or how you've filed your taxes in the past they use a
1040EZ form to file your tax return. When this happens what they've
essentially done is put YOU the Aberdeen
Taxpayer in debt and consequently into
collections because you have failed to the pay amount of taxes owed
according to the IRS.
Priority Aberdeen
Tax Relief will review the tax debt
in question, and file amended tax returns or the actual tax returns for as
many years as needed with the proper deductions on your behalf and in many
cases turn the tax debt into an elimination of the tax debt or even get
you a tax refund even if you don't have all you W-2's or 1099's.
All you have to do is Call Us for a FREE Confidential Consultation. Call Priority Tax Relief Aberdeen TODAY! Call Us Now at
- Do you have unfiled
or unpaid back taxes? - Has the IRS garnished your wages, seized your

Get a second opinion, and fast. I'm a Mom of a child with food and environmental allergies. I knew something was not right with my son three days after we came home from the hospital. Luckily my pediatrician was supportive of my concern, and helped me address it. My son saw his first allergist at a year old, we just did an elimination diet until we were ready for a blood test. It is super important to the long term health of your child that any allergies be addressed as soon as possible. Find another pediatrician that is covered under your insurance and address your concern with them. Or just find an allergist that specializes in pediatric cases. If your doctor won't give you a referral, call your insurance company, and they can help you.
What can I do if my doctor does not take my child, who is under 2, allergies seriously?

CP World Report: Romney, Iranian Pastor, Syria, Afghanistan
It was a big day in the Republican search for a candidate. Mitt Romney won contests in Maryland and Washington, D.C. to tighten his grip on the race. He also landed a win against rival Rick Santorum with an expected victory in Wisconsin.
As the violence rages in Syria, many Christians are reportedly considering fleeing the country, once considered a safe haven for Christians in the Middle East. Christians there are faced with danger on two fronts: getting caught in the crossfire between government and rebel forces. Also, if the rebels prevail and the regime falls, an Islamic government could emerge, making life more difficult for the Christian community. That's according to a report from the "Catholic Near East Welfare Association"
A college community in Northern California is in mourning after a gunman went on a deadly rampage, killing six women and one man. Here's more…..
A Florida pastor, who has made it his ministry to end legalized abortion in the U.S. believes it's the evangelical church that must first repent and call out to God to win the spiritual battle for the lives of unborn children. Reverend Jim McGarvey said the vast majority of Christians can go to an evangelical church for many years and not hear anything about abortion. He told our news partner Christian Post that most evangelical pastors are pro-life, but they are not communicating the message to their congregations.
A man convicted of raping his daughter is now a free man after spending more than nine years behind bars. He's free because his daughter now says she made it all up.
The American Center for Law and Justice has reported that Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, although imprisoned in Iran, was able to see one of his sons on the child's birthday. This comes as a special treat for Nadarkhani , who will also celebrate his 35th birthday after being imprisoned for two and a half years. Nadarkhani was arrested by Iranian authorities in Oct. 2009 for apostasy and protesting the government's mandatory teaching of Islam in his children's schools
A boxing studio in Afghanistan is giving women a chance to enter the ring. After the fall of the Taliban, women are now picking up gloves and hoping to be contenders in this summer's Olympic games in London.
