It is a brilliant thought to care about as noone can find a more unique dress than that which will make your day more special taking you back to your parent's wedding day. As vintage wedding dresses are mostly handmade, they have gorgeous details what makes them even more valuable among with the memories they represent. When kept carefully, you can even start a new family tradition with your vintage bridal dress, carried out from generation to generation. If you are counting the days to your wedding they, you can consider this idea. If you still have a long way to go for that dream day, here you will find lots of ideas to pin to your "Dream Wedding" board.

Your baby is already one month old. The birth of a child is a beautiful experience in the life of the parents. Now the newborn is among you, and you will have a tremendous adaptation ahead.
The first couple days with the baby are peculiar. The enormous happiness of having him finally in his arms coexists with the discomforts of the postpartum, tiredness and worries about baby care.
But the baby of 1 month also lives great changes. She has been in the womb for nine months and is suddenly in a new environment full of stimuli. That is why you have to treat it so that your life is as close as it was to the inside of the womb. A cozy atmosphere, warm, soft and soft.
That newborns come without an instruction manual is true, fortunately. Because every baby has their own needs and because there is nothing more wonderful than discovering it.
We see the main characteristics of the babies of 1 month :
First Month Baby Feeding
The best food for the newborn is breast milk. Ideally, it should be placed on the breast at birth, within two hours of birth. It is when the baby has the instinct more to the flower of skin and favors the bond of attachment with the mother.
It is essential for successful breastfeeding that the baby will properly cling to the breast. There are several possible postures, but always the baby should cover a good portion of the alveolar of the chest with his mouth, as you can see in this video.
Breastfeeding should be on demand, i.e., breastfeeding when the child wishes, without burdens or schedules, or frequencies, both day and night.
During the first month, as the mother and baby adjust, breastfeeding takes time. It is more than likely that the baby will fall asleep during the shot or need to flare and in a short time, start again.
Breastfeeding is ideal for the newborn. However, there are mothers who for medical or social reasons do not want or can not feed it with their milk.
Artificial lactation consists of starter milk formulas that must be carefully prepared. The bottle should be pre-sterilized, it should be prepared at the time of the intake and can not be reused the milk that has not been taken. During the first month, the shots are given every three hours.
The time to give the bottle should be a pleasant moment. You should be calm in a comfortable posture and the baby a little incorporated with his head on your arm so that it does not clog.
When you start feeding off the belly, you will begin to make blackish deposits called meconium during the first few days, which will then become liquid, yellowish cavities. Diaper changes will be very frequent, between 6 and eight changes per day.
First Month Baby Sleep
A newborn needs to sleep for many hours. We should not interfere in the time that the baby sleeps, it is a physiological necessity as is hunger or the need for affection.
The one-month-old baby still does not have a sleep rhythm and needs to wake up several times to feed.
Throughout the day he moves between waking and sleeping, without differentiating the day at night. Little by little you will associate the time of sleep with the night and one of the vigils with the day if we are introducing certain habits. For example, darken the room at night (with a dim light to be able to attend) to associate darkness and silence with the night and light and noise with the day.
The sleep pattern of a one-month-old baby has two phases: deep sleep and REM phase. Their order is irregular due to the lack of rhythm of melatonin, hormone responsible for regulating sleep-wake cycles, which normalizes around 4-6 months. Breast milk, by containing melatonin, favors the regulation of the baby's biological rhythms.
Although it causes great tiredness in the parents, it is healthy that the baby wakes up at night. The baby needs to wake up to eat to avoid hypoglycemia. Also, the nocturnal shots promote increased breast milk production.
Because of the baby's need to feed himself so often during the night and his need to be in touch with the mother, the ideal is for the baby to sleep in the same room as his parents, and those who want it in the same bed, Provided that certain guidelines are met for the safety of the child .
The sudden death is a ghost that haunts many parents. For avoiding it, we must take into account some very important indications like not taking the baby too much to sleep and putting him to sleep always face up.
First-Month Baby Growth
The term baby is born with a weight around 3 kilos and 3 kilos and a half of weight on average. The days after birth produce a physiological weight loss of about 10% of its weight. It is completely normal and is due to the loss of fluids that occur after delivery.
It will quickly recover those lost grams gaining weight around 180-200 grams per week.
The average length of a newborn is 50 cm, somewhat less in the case of girls while the cranial perimeter is around 34 cm. At the first check-ups, the weight-height-perimeter parameters will be measured to control their growth.
It is not good to become obsessed with the newborn's weight gain. While doing the shots frequently and changing the diaper about 6-8 times a day, there is no need to worry. It is important to clarify that babies fed formula milk gain more weight than breastfed babies.
First Month Baby Development
The one-month-old baby is able to:
Direct the look to a specific point and follow a face with the look Look for the voice of the mother See a short distance of 30-40 cm It is startled by a loud noise Grimacing Raise the head slightly when facedown Bend the four extremities It preserves some primary reflections like the reflection of the Moor and the reflex of grasp
Sociability of the Baby of First Month
During the first month, the figure of the mother is essential for the life of the child. The relationship with others begins with the mother and then is extended to other people.
Towards the end of the first month of life, something wonderful happens: the baby gives us his first sneeze. The angelic smile, a reflection of the baby at birth, becomes a conscious smile as a response to a social stimulus such as talking or smiling.
The way to communicate the newborn is crying . That is why it is so important to always listen to your crying that you will gradually begin to interpret. You will know when you cry because of hunger, because of tiredness, because you want arms or because of pain and that around the third week of life you may begin to suffer the famous colic of the infant.
Skin-to-skin contact, smiles, soft words, holding you in the arms, caresses, and massages are the way to communicate with the baby. It is absolutely advisable and necessary for him to be touched. It promotes its development as well as being relaxing and enjoyable for both parents and baby.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act allocated $1.5 billion "for homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing activities." New temporary shelters are cropping up in vacant foreclosed properties. The capitol building in Madison, WI has opened its doors to homeless residents (until 6 pm that is, and then they have to find somewhere else to sleep).
The burgeoning homeless population has been getting more attention in the media lately. More often we hear about homelessness issues through politicians or religious organizations. What we never hear or read are the homeless speaking for themselves. Now is as good a time as ever to listen to what they have to say.
Spare Change News (blog available on-line), is a fortnightly street paper written by a mix of formerly homeless and freelancers and sold by generally homeless vendors in the Cambridge, Massachusetts area. James Shearer, co-founder of the paper and once a homeless vendor turned board president says on-line: new regulations for homeless families in MA have less funding but one good thing is that "the regulations have also been revised to allow minors to stay in shelters with their families, wheareas before they could not."
Street Spirit (current issue not on-line) is a monthly publication by the American Friends Service Committee, a Quaker organization covering "Justice News & Homeless Blues in the Bay Area." Inside the current issue is a piece reporting a National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty finding that 40 percent of families facing eviction due to foreclosure are not homeowners, but renters.
The North American Street Newspaper Association counts 27 papers from 14 U.S. states and 4 Canadian Provinces with a combined monthly circulation of over 287,000. The NASNA provides workshops and professional advice to vendors about improving content and day-to-day operations.
The International Network of Street Papers website profiles 98 papers from around the world, each trying to "create employment for homeless people," and letting the disenfranchised have a voice--whether they are from America, Malawi or Iraq.
Utne Reader wrote "The Word on the Curb" in a Sep/Oct 2000 article and gives a brief history of street papers and highlights a few that have inspired other start-ups.
Besides articles written on topics that concern their communities, these papers are also filled with: poetry, photos of men and women pushing over-flowing shopping carts and sitting on sidewalks, directories of organizations providing services, and of course a sodoku and crossword puzzle.In her poem, "Thread," Joan Clair writes:
To hold onto life
by a thread
is not weak.
A thread is
amazingly strong
and lasts long.

Reviews Strain Reviews
Cherry Pie by Lola Lola
on August 20th, 2016
There are few strains that I can easily say I'd smoke all day, from the morning until bed, and Cherry Pie is one those strains. It provides the perfect amount of medicating properties, with it's pain relief and anxiety reduction, and it offers a solid uninhibited mental stone. And the flavor of the sweet cherry truly comes through to offer an enjoyable smoking experience each time. Lola Lola really nailed it with this bud. I picked up this gram sample of Cherry Pie from a 4 gram sampler package by Lola Lola. It was one of the weeds we received inside of the M-Box. My first encounter with Cherry Pie was a welcoming experience. Usually you break into a new strain and it's an overwhelming, almost uncomfortable high. This strain was perfect from the start. At it's highest peaks you receive a relaxing body buzz that emanates from the shoulders and upper spine, sedative like effects reducing pain levels, and a solid mental stone that cultivates an air of calm. Fitting, as the primary terpenoid in this strain is caryophyllene, which is noted to reduce anxiety and promote focus. I can smoke this strain anytime without the fear of "getting too high" and being incapable of handling business. And I can smoke it all day long without it stacking up and making me feel exhausted by the end of the day. In the morning it's best paired with a brighter sativa, but I find it a fantastic way to assist with morning aches and getting over nightmares. And it's decent at night to relieve the day's tension, but I'd recommend pairing with a heavier knockout-style indica for insomnia. It makes an excellent mix with any sativa, indica, or even hybrid to level out the high of the other strain. Lets talk about the nugs. The smell of these nugs wasn't anything stellar. The second you opened the box and stuck your nose in the Cherry Pie slot you get a whiff of grass and earth. The look of the nugs themselves was decent, they were well manicured, though weren't too frosty or anything. They gave a sense that it might be an outdoor grown bud, or one that just didn't reach it's full potential. The cure could have gone a bit longer, as the nugs weren't too dry feeling, and didn't burn well in the bong. The taste however was pretty great, with tones of sweet cherry and a light earthiness. And the smoke was very smooth every time. Despite the looks and smell, I come back every time for the taste and quality of hit. I'd highly recommend Cherry Pie for beginners, or for anyone looking for a chill yet medicating stone from a strain. The flavor was awesome, the high was absolutely perfect. This strain may have had some downfalls, but it's positive effects incredibly outweigh the negatives. Cherry Pie gets an 7/10 in my book, and find a place in my bowls any time.

Boris Johnson launched his nine point plan for London at yesterday's Conservative party conference. His speech showed we've been right to focus on Punch and Judy politics this week, as he described Ken Livingstone's team as
a bunch of semi-reformed Trotskyist, car-hating, Hugo Chávez idolising, newt fancying, tax-dodging, bank-bashing hypocrites and bendy-bus fetishists
Jenny Jones went so far as to call it "playground taunting".
But what of the nine point plan?
- Cutting waste at City Hall – freeing up £3.5 billion for services
- Putting £445 back in your pocket by freezing the Mayoral share of council tax
- Creating 200,000 new jobs over the next four years
- Making our streets and homes safer with 1,000 more police on the beat
- Restoring 300 acres of green space and planting 20,000 street trees
- Investing £221 million to transform local high streets, supporting small businesses
- Ensuring a true Olympic legacy – 11,000 new homes and 10,000 new jobs
- Reducing Tube delays 30% by 2015. Building Crossrail and orbital rail to link our suburbs. Extending the Bike Hire scheme
- Securing a better deal for London from No 10
Which looks solid but... a bit uninspiring. It's a mix of things already under way (e.g. Crossrail, and at least 6,000 new homes are already under construction at the Olympic site), disputed figures (e.g. 1,000 more police, which we'll cover in a few weeks) and characterised by a lack of imagination and grand plans. Where's the equivalent of the new bus? Help for housing? From such a clever, flamboyant man as Boris Johnson we expected more.
We also don't quite know how the Mayor's team has worked out he'd save us £445 over four years just by freezing his share of council tax. Next year's much vaunted cut amounts to £3.10 per household over the year. The figure seems to come from how much council tax might have risen under Ken Livingstone based on cumulative rises from the previous Mayor's term – which is not only a bit dubious, it ignores things like the Olympics precept (currently £20 per household per year), added mid-Mayoralty, and that in the last few years George Osborne has been awarding government grants to bodies that freeze their share of council tax.

Shop - Markets / Shopping AreasMarkets in Thailand are some of the very best and most interesting places to observe ordinary Thai people going about their everyday business of shopping for food and other items. The markets are always a hive of activity where all kinds of people rub shoulders, and the most popular ones inevitably attract people from miles around, both for shopping and to sell their fresh produce. Markets are considered by many to play a key and very important part in daily Thai society, probably much more so than in western countries. One advantage and reason they are so popular is that you can find many goods selling far cheaper than at the more modern supermarkets and department stores.
For a slice of the real Thailand, you can do much worse than spend an hour or two at a local market, even if you are not really intending to buy anything. Once you see what's on offer, you just might be tempted to sample some fresh exotic fruit or enjoy a snack at one of the many food stalls. At the very least, it will provide you with some great photo opportunities and a welcome insight into life in Thailand away from the bars and beaches. Most of the Thai cooking classes in Phuket also take you to the markets to buy fresh produce under the guidance of the chef or class tutor.
Many Thai people as well as farang (foreigners) make full use of markets in Thai cities, not just the large ones in Bangkok and Phuket. Most of the smaller towns and provinces all over the country have their own local markets. Ask any expat or local resident in Phuket and they will tell you that they often shop for groceries at a market, especially anyone that owns a local restaurant or food business. For the low prices and sheer variety of products on offer, it's hard to beat local markets in Phuket and you can choose between many different vendors.
Other Fresh Food Markets (Banzaan Fresh Market Patong)
Banzaan Fresh Market Patong
Location: Sai Kor Rd., Patong Beach, Phuket
Opening Hours: Daily from 06.00 am. – 09.00 am.
Type: Market
Patong Beach ShoppingNakalay and Kalim Beach is located on a private bay just north of Patong Beach. It is suitable for people who like it quiet but still want to be near the entertainment area of Patong. The Patong Beach is famous for its night markets. There is the recently opened Jungceylon, a large shopping complex, as well as plenty of clothing boutiques, souvenir shops, tailors, and of course roadside stalls.
Location: Patong Beach
Opening Hours: Daily

Other Fresh Food Markets (Kata Market)
Kata Market
Location: On the inland Kata/Karon Rd. (Thanon Patak), Phuket
Opening Hours: Twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays
Type: Market
Kata PlazaKata Plaza is a large, tarpaulin-covered bazaar with a wide range of articles for sale. Just at the entrance you can buy biker leatherwork, motorcycle helmets baseball hats and football T-shirts – all of quite good quality. Don't forget that this is bargaining territory and you'll be expected to bring the original asking price down by sometimes as much as 60% before the serious stuff begins.
Inside, many stalls sell children's accessories as well as a mind-boggling array of T-shirts, casual clothing and footwear, travel accessories, replica watches, sunglasses and knick-knacks of varying quality and usefulness. Many of these storeholders are from Nepal and their English is actually quite good but to be on the safe side they have calculators to show prices to non-English speakers. What you can't buy in Kata Plaza you probably don't need – there's even an exterior restaurant. It's really best to shop here early evening or at night due to the heat from the tent-like roof.
Location: On Kata Road, halfway between southern Kata and Central Kata, 6/22 Patak Rd., Karon, Mueang, Phuket
Contact: Tel: 0 7633 0511
Opening Hours: Early afternoon – late evening
Type: Shopping Area
Mini-Mall with Sai Nahm RestaurantThe three-floor mini-mall on Kokthanod Road has been open for sometime but still doesn't have a name. It has a small spa corner as well as a few shelves stocked with goods such as sun cream lotion, chewing gum and other beach essentials. The second floor is more interesting and houses women's and menswear as well as local souvenirs. The women's corner features unique evening and beachwear using attractive materials from Thailand and overseas. Prices are on the high side. This building features the only escalator in Kata (not that they need one). A Thai restaurant lies on the top floor with views of the beach and diners can choose air-conditioned or al-fresco seating.
Location: Opposite Oasis Tapas Bar on Kokthanod Rd., Phuket
Opening Hours: Daily from 10.00 am. onward
Type: Shopping Area
P&P MartP&P is the best place in the area for new books, magazines and same-day international newspaper printouts. For an excellent selection of secondhand books go to Kata Bookshop 300 metres further down the same road.
Location: Next to the Adidas and Nike outlet, opposite Kata Beach Resort on Kata Rd., Phuket

Karon Shopping Plaza
Karon Shopping Plaza
Location: Next to Mövenpick Resort & Spa Karon Beach, Patak Rd., Karon Beach, Phuket 83100
Type: Shopping Area
Karon Beach ShoppingShopping in Karon starts at the beach traffic circle. Here, you will find a supermarket for all your drinks/snacks and hygiene needs. If you walk up the main road towards Karon's Buddhist temple you'd be forgiven for thinking that the area is made up entirely of photo labs, pharmacies, banks and tailors and more tailors and more bars than Las Vegas, although with more modest prices.
However, after a while you will find a wide selection of shoes, fake name-brand watches, sunglasses, bags and suitcases and all sorts of souvenirs, from silk cushion covers to wooden handicraft items, to toy elephants. There is also a squeaky clean brand-new optician shop, KT Optic that offers pretty good discounts on name-brand sunglasses (Ray-Bans, down to 5,900 baht from recommended price of 7,300 baht). In Thailand, spectacles cost a fraction of the prices they command in the west and of course computerised eye-examination is free here.
Further up the same road, the shops (mostly tailors) are soon outnumbered by bars and restaurants. In the side streets by the Centara Karon Beach Resort stand more tailors and a dental clinic (dental treatment is a bargain for foreigners visiting Thailand and many people come here expressly for this reason) but this two parallel backstreet area is largely guesthouse and bar/restaurant territory
Type: Shopping Area
Karon PlazaKaron Plaza is another Karon Thailand shopping venue where you can do a lot of haggling and bargaining. There are numerous stalls which sell a myriad of electronic, clothing and novelty items which are all low-priced.
These are just a couple of the areas in Karon Thailand where you can do your shopping. If you are headed off to this part of Phuket, make sure that you have a lot of pocket money as you would surely not be able to resist the great items which are being sold at low prices.
There's a big sign saying 'Special & Cheap Price' at the entrance of Karon Plaza, and experienced shoppers will know that a lot of fun is to be had here, bargaining and haggling. Products are mostly Thai made and the usual gamut of T-shirts, DVD's and handicrafts is for sale.

Before getting any further into winter, be sure that you can mark off everything on your winter preparation checklist. Be it your home or business, everyone should thoroughly examine their windows and doors, for ample reason. Whether your windows and doors are drafty, unsecure, or in need of an update, Apollo Window, Door & Siding is here for you. We offer window replacement, window repair, and additional services to ensure that you and your space are fully prepared for the rest of winter.
Be sure to test all of the hardware and locks of your windows and doors, and have repairs made if necessary. Windows, for instance, work best when shut and sealed tight. If any parts are not functioning or locking properly, you have a few issues. From security concerns, to drafts and energy waste, windows and doors with loose or broken hardware and locks should be toward the top of your checklist. Having properly functioning locks and other hardware, on both your windows and doors, is imperative for a warm and safe winter.
Another way to minimize energy waste, other than with tightly shut and locked windows, is by having fresh and effective sealant around draft-prone areas. Windows and entry way doors, for instance, need to have sufficient weather stripping and caulking applied in order to seal in heat and keep out the cold. Examine and maintain the edges and seals of your doors and windows, to prevent drafts and other issues from becoming major problems.
Although our professionals at Apollo Window, Door & Siding are experts at window repair, all things eventually need to be replaced and updated. Common issues, such as drafty windows, inevitably occur with every day use, wear and tear. If you wait too long to fix minor issues, a slight draft can turn into a leak or worse. Be sure to identify any drafts that your home or business may have, and rectify them with window repair or window replacement from us at Apollo.
At Apollo Window, Door & Siding, we offer window replacement, window repair, and additional services to ensure that you and your space are fully prepared for the rest of winter. Contact us now by calling (724) 201-2224 for more information, or to set up a window repair, window replacement, or other service consultation. We'll keep you and your New Kensington area space safe and warm all season long!

"…there are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely—or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands. You have that moment now. Choose!"

These days, many people disseminate ideas or impart wisdom through sharing Internet memes. Two of these caught my attention recently as I was mulling over making changes in critical areas of my life. The first read: "Life isn't happening to you; life is responding to you." The second: "If it doesn't open, it's not your door." Because both addressed possible causes for what I felt was procrastination on my part, I decided to take a closer look at their implications.

Official Site: www.ProLargeX.com
Labs Division
2122 Cambridge F
Deerfield Beach, FL 33442
United States
Product description: ProLargeX is created by Lab88, which is based in New York and attests to the freshness and proper dosage of the ingredients. This supplements is said to be a rare blend of potency and male enhancement pill that "works and works well, the sensation is almost immediate." Its ingredients are said to be time-tested in many other products and used millions of times throughout the Southeast Asian region. Its laboratory is promoted as federally inspected, with the manufacturer procuring the ingredients from places as far as Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The manufacturing is currently Good Manufacturing Practices certified (cGMP) and produces effective results. Its active ingredient is tongkat ali, hailed as the "Asian Viagra," and it is designed for promoting erectile hardening, lengthening, and a longer lovemaking.
Ingredient list:
- Tongkat ali
- Muira puama
- Oyster extract
- Pumpkin seed
- Ginseng
- Zinc
- Catuaba bark
- Korean red ginseng
- Use of exotic herbal extracts that are time-tested and traditionally used for their therapeutic effects
- Provides special discounted rates
- Not a one-pill-a-day formula
- Lacks clinical data to strengthen its sexual enhancement claims
- "New technology" added to herbal extracts is a fussy area – not enough information is provided
We are of the belief that you will not go wrong with nature's herbs, given that they are from safe, clean sources, are appropriate for your state of health, and are used in the proper dosage and concentration. ProLargeX is a male enhancement solution that maximizes the benefits of these herbal extracts, including tongkat ali, muira puama, and ginseng, which are all widely studies and researched at present to discover what more they can offer for human wellness. The benefit claims of this product are also cohesive and wide-ranging, from stronger erections to enhanced libido for extended sexual pleasure.
But there are lot of other sex enhancers that make the same claim, therefore we are looking for a special positioning for ProLargeX – clinical data on its formulation, customer reviews and testimonials, and a once-a-day recommended dosage that will lead to savings. These factors are not yet satisfied by this sex pill, so we would rather that we purchase a more established, tested product, because right now, choosing ProLargeX is still quite a gamble.

Today's healthcare climate presents numerous challenges for chief information security officers (CISOs). According to Forrester's Global Business Technographics Security Survey, Healthcare CISOs report they are faced with cost pressures that are constraining their ability to improve security; they will need to be increasingly savvy and efficient in the way they allocate their budgets.
CISOs face an additional challenge in obtaining funding for their security initiatives; they are not always seen as equal partners with other C-level executives. As a result, they often struggle to make their voices heard. CISOs seeking to expand their role into a true executive-level leadership position—one in which they will have more impact and be able to command more support for their programs—will need to initiate, manage, and lead cross-team collaboration.

President Obama has finally announced the new White House Cybersecurity Coordinator. Howard Schmidt will be tasked to work with the President's national security and economic councils while advising the president on cybersecurity issues.
Schmidt brings an impressive resume to the position which includes former posts as President of the Information Security Forum, President of the Information Systems Security Association and Chief Security Office at Microsoft. Schmidt had previously served the Bush White House, until May 2003, as vice chair of the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board and as a special adviser for cyberspace security. His experience extends 40 years and covers areas of government, business and law enforcement.
The position of White House Cyberspace Coordinator was first announced in May of this year by President Obama during remarks at a briefing. Being that Obama was one of the first elected presidents to fully utilize technology in order to get elected, it makes perfect sense that he has found a gap in the protection of our nation's digital infrastructure that he believes needs a focus. That focus is what Schmidt will be expected to bring to the White House.

Sorting through GRC framework questions
An IT or enterprise GRC program needs coordination, and that's where governance, risk and compliance frameworks can be useful. Here's an overview.
Within the world of risk management for IT, much has been said lately about governance, risk and compliance and the need for a GRC "framework." The truth is that there is nothing new about any of this, but we live in a world that loves to continue to put new ribbons on old packages. Nevertheless, when it comes to IT governance, much can be said for a structured, methodical approach to managing risk, and in that context a GRC framework may be helpful under the right circumstances. The purpose of this tip is to attempt to demystify some of the so-called frameworks available and discuss where each might be useful or appropriate.
If we are going to talk about IT governance, risk and compliance, we need to clarify a little bit about what this means. While GRC may be the fleeting buzzword of the day, what we're really talking about here is managing risk, not just controls. This is where some frameworks often come up short, with a heavy emphasis on internal controls but not necessar... ily a balanced look at the underlying risks as well as the ultimate strength of those controls. Therefore, a good GRC program means the coordination of many people and processes, which is where a risk management framework can at times be helpful.
Framework is quite possibly the most abused word in history. Anybody who has built anything from a checklist to a protocol calls what they have a framework, which has rendered the term virtually useless. The vast majority of so-called "frameworks" available today are little more than standards. What is just as important as whether a framework is utilized is whether or not the organization has a mechanism to actually assess risk. A control is only relevant within a risk context, and if you don't have a clear understanding of the inherent risks (the "why" of a control), it is impossible to determine whether the control is effective. Because every organization is unique, there is no such thing as a "one-size-fits-all" framework.
But love them or hate them, the reality is that the larger and more complex an organization becomes, the more valuable a framework can be, as long as one is used appropriately. Remember, framework is just another word for a structured approach to common sense -- a frame in which you build a program. In the end, it is the program that brings value, not the framework itself.
In this article we will look briefly at seven different tools, some that are true GRC frameworks and some that are simply standards. In part one we will examine COSO, COBIT (and Risk IT and Val IT) and ITIL. In part two, we will look at MOF, ISO 2700x, PCI DSS and NISTSP800-53.
For most of this article, will provide an overview of the standard or framework, and then notes on the strengths, weaknesses, applicability and some other related comments.
COSO: The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("Treadway" referring to James C. Treadway, the original committee chairman) was formed in 1985 to focus on systems of controls around fraudulent financial reporting. The COSO framework is the leading risk management framework with an emphasis on control effectiveness, efficiency of operations, reliable financial reporting and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The COSO framework is enterprise-wide and is, therefore, well beyond the boundaries of IT governance. However, it is worth mentioning here because many of the IT-specific frameworks and standards were designed with integration into the COSO framework in mind.
COBIT: When it comes to IT governance, the current gold standard in risk frameworks is unquestionably COBIT, or Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology. COBIT is owned and published by the IT Governance Institute (ITGA) a nonprofit research entity created by ISACA in 1998. COBIT comprises 34 high-level control objectives within four specific domains:
- Plan and organize
- Acquire and implement
- Deliver and support
- Monitor and evaluate
First released in 1996, COBIT is often perceived as merely an audit framework. However, if implemented correctly, it can serve as an effective risk management framework.
- COBIT is arguably the most widely used IT governance framework available today.
- It is an essential tool for companies seeking compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) .
- It integrates fairly easily (although not perfectly) with COSO and the ISO standards.
- It is very inexpensive and is available to all ISACA members.
- COBIT implementation requires a significant amount of time and effort, and maintenance can be burdensome.
- The framework is not strong on information security, which must be supplemented with other standards like ISO 27002.
- Like many standards and frameworks, COBIT provides a great deal of "what" to do, without a lot of information on "how" to do it.
Appropriate for…:
- Any organization with a large IT department (although smaller organizations can certainly use the "spirit" of the framework) .
- Organizations with formalized processes or high-risk environments.
- Any organization seeking SOX compliance.
Other notes:
- ISACA provides mapping documents to many other major standards and frameworks.
ISACA also has two related products, Val IT and Risk IT, which integrate with COBIT. Val IT is focused on governance related to IT investments, and is therefore helpful in strategic planning. Risk IT, as the name implies, is designed to address in more detail the risks associated with information technology.

"People who love and know music, poets and writers and musicians, it touches them. They understand it."
Bachir Attar: The Master Musician of Jajouka
Bachir Attar was born in Jajouka, Morocco, is the leader of Master Musicians of Jajouka led by Bachir Attar. He is the son of Hadj Abdesalam Attar who led the group Master Musicians of Jajouka at the time of their groundbreaking album produced by Brian Jones. Bachir Attar carries on his father's Attar family traditions with a new generation of Master Musicians descended from members of his father's group.
The group recorded under the shorter and correct pronunciation of the Moghrebi name "The Master Musicians of Jajouka" on soundtracks for films including The Cell, "The Hand of Fatima" by Augusta Palmer, Bernardo Bertolucci'sThe Sheltering Sky, "William Burroughs: A Man Within", directed by Yoni Leyser, Naked Lunch, Ornette: Made in America, Nicolas Roeg's "Bad Timing". CDs include Bill Laswells' Apocalypse Across the Sky, Peter Gabriel's Jajouka Between the Mountains, appearances with the Rolling Stones on Steel Wheels, and the second album of the group from 1974 produced by Joel Rubiner entitled The Master Musicians of Jajouka. © Cherie Nutting
In addition to his work with Master Musicians of Jajouka, Bachir Attar was granted a Music Composition Fellowship by "The New York Foundation for the Arts" in 1990 for his compositions "Memories of My Father" and "Sounds of New York". Attar has also has recorded a solo album entitled The Next Dream, which was produced in New York City by Bill Laswell. Attar was a guest performer on Nicky Skopelitis's album, Ekstasis. He also recorded with Debby Harry and Chris Stein on the "Cash Cow" CD entitled "The Best of Giorno Poetry Systems 1965-1993". Bachir Attar and The Master Musicians of Jajouka toured the USA in winter 2009. In June 2009 Bachir Attar and The Master Musicians of Jajouka performed with Ornette Coleman, Patti Smith and Flea from The Red Hot Chili Peppers at The Southbank Meltdown Festival in London. Bachir Attar has recorded toured with artists such as Elliott Sharp, Talvin Singh, Maceo Parker, Ginger Baker, Steve Lacy and Critters Buggin. The Beat writer William S. Burroughs said: "The primordial sounds of a 4000 year old rock 'n' roll band." and "...Bachir Attar is without any doubt, the sole rightful inheritor of the mantle of Leader of the Master Musicians of Jajouka, and his band of musicians, who are the only rightful 'Master Musicians.'"

How do you describe Bachir Attar & The Master Musicians of Jajouka philosophy of music… and life?
My philosophy of life is first being a Muslim and also living in peace. The music is second. It is a gift from Allah given to me. It was my destiny. Each person when he is born has his own gift. For me it was the music.

Which is the most interesting period in your life and why?
There have been many periods in my life that have been interesting but one of my favorite memories is as a child riding on mules to other villages and moussems to play the music. I remember being on a mule sitting with my arms wrapped round my father traveling to a village with 4 other musicians. I was about 12 yrs old. As we travelled by mule it took 2 days to arrive to this festival. My father and the musicians played music without stopping as we travelled all the day. Sometimes we would take a break and rest near a well and we would then move on but almost all the time as we travelled music played. At night we stopped traveling and then we would all play music for a couple of hrs. Later we would sleep under the moon until sunrise. The next morning we moved on and we arrived at our destination by sunset. And I can still hear those same musical sounds which still run through my head from time to time. It is one of my favorite memories...on the road with my father and his best musicians, all of us playing as we rode on our mules.
From whom have you have learned the most secrets about the art and music?
From my father Hadj Abdesalam Attar who was leader of the Master Musicians of Jajouka until his death in 1982. I started studying with my father at the age of 4 and he taught me all that I know.
What experiences in your life make you a GOOD artist and musician?
Because I start as a child with this deep music experience. I never went to school. I only studied the music and I was serious about it from the beginning. I felt the music deeply as a child and I was born into this family of musicians where my father was a Master and the venerated leader. My father taught me since I was a little child but mostly it was the deep feeling that I had for the music from the very beginning which makes me what I am as an artist.
The Master Musicians of Jajouka "The Sheltering Sky" © Cherie Nutting
Why did you think that Master Musicians of Jajouka's continued to generate such a devoted following?
Because this music is appreciated by deep artists. People who love and know music, poets and writers and musicians, it touches them. They understand it. They have to be around it. They know also the difference between the music played well by the real Masters and the music copied by others which lack the clarity and precision of the Jajouka Masters.
Some music styles can be fads but Jajouka's is always with us. Why do think that is?
Because it is pure and human music..that is why it survives
Do you know why the sound of The Master Musicians of Jajouka is connected to the "avant-garde" literature, poetry and life?
The Beats and many others followed Paul Bowles to Morocco. Paul Bowles invited Brion Gysin to Tangier and together they travelled to a moussem in Sidi Kacem. It was there that they first heard the Jajouka music played by my father. Later Burroughs and Ornette Coleman came to the village along with Brian Jones who later visited Jajouka for only one night but he recorded what was later named "The Pipes of Pan". Others followed…I think that they liked the music because it is pure and human music as I said above.
Which memory from Rolling Stones, "Ginger" Baker and Maceo Parker makes you smile?
All these great artists play with us and we have high hopes for friendship and long success. We give great performances with them. Later we laugh. People come when they need you and people go when they don't. It is best to follow your own way. Our old innocence makes me smile...
Mohamed Attar, Bachr Attar and Ornette Coleman © Cherie Nutting
Are there any memories from Ornette Coleman and Bill Laswell, which you'd like to share with us?
I remember the dark night when we were carrying Bill Laswell's recording equipment up to the village by mule. The trail was lit by gas lanterns which made shadows of the ears of the mules on the dark earth below as we climbed the hill. Once there we unloaded all of the equipment and we recorded "Apocalypse Across the Sky" that night. I have a vision in my head of Bill standing close to the engineer Oz Fritz in the moonlight. We were in my father's house. That was a great night to remember.
I also think of Ornette Coleman in 1973 when he came to the village for a week. I was a just a child. It was the greatest time watching Ornette play with my father and the musicians. Each night for me was magic. Ornette's engineer recorded many hours of music. Bob Palmer was playing the clarinet. It was the most incredible time for me. I remember as it were yesterday. We hope this magical recording will be released one day and we can share it with the world.
In more recent times I have great memories of dinners with Ornette Coleman in NY. Only a few years ago we jammed together in his home in NYC and when we jammed in his apartment it brought me back to 1973 in Jajouka with my father. Ornette and I laughed and joked a lot during my last visit.In his soft spoken voice Ornette said "Come to see me anytime" ..so "Anytime with Ornette"will be our next song dedicated to the great friend who has often come through for us when in need.
What is the "feel" you miss most from Paul Bowles and what advice was given to you?
Paul Bowles always treated me very well and he supported my music. He often helped us financially, to achieve artistic goals. He told me though, that I need not leave Morocco as people will follow me and my music as they did his work while living in Tangier. He is gone and I feel the loss but I am glad to have known him. I miss him every day.

Which of historical personalities would you like to meet?
I would have liked to have met King Hassan II, the father of Mohamed VI who is the current King of Morocco.
From the musical point of view is there any difference and similarities between the 50s - 60s & nowadays sound of Jajouka?
Jajouka music is different from Western Music…Jajouka music stays the same for me. It is all recorded in my head and it remains the same.
Of all the people you've meeting with, who do you admire the most?
I admire a few people...but I can't say their names…some of them are very poor people and they live in Morocco.
If you go back to the past what things you would do better and what things you would a void to do again?
Nothing….everything is written…All is in the hand of Allah. I can't change anything.
What are some of the most memorable shows you've had?
Many shows with Ornette Coleman have been incredible. The last one at The North Sea Jazz Festival with Ornette and Flea blew everyone away. It was magic. I jumped into his music and Ornette jumped into mine.

What is your "secret" music DREAM?
My big secret musical and visual dream is to make a... Hollywood movie…with the story that I hold...I will give it only to some great artist who can handle it. Until then I keep the story hidden. It is a secret right now but waiting to be told to the right person. I am here
Which things do you prefer doing in your free time?
I like to cook, play my instruments and sing, compose music and play with my son Salahadin who is starting to play flute, drums, and guitar. This makes me feel peaceful and happy.
You have been traveling all around the crazy world. What are your conclusions?
I go in one door and come back through another. It is the same wind, the same earth, the same sky…I am here.
What are the secrets of The Master Musicians of Jajouka?
We will tell our secrets in the future.

Invasion of the PATRIOT Act
Let's put some things in perspective. Western society is under threat from terrorists. There's no question about that, either.
The real issue is how to address that threat. There are two properties we want such a solution to have. We want it to be effective, and we want it to preserve our society.
Below you will find SearchSecurity.com expert Jonathan Callas' response to questions about how the PATRIOT Act affects individual security and civil liberties. This article is one of a group of SearchSecurity.com expert answers to questions on this legislation.
Are the intercept provisions of the Cyber Security Enhancement Act and the surveillance provisions of the PATRIOT Act clear violations of privacy? Why, yes, they are. No question about it.
Let's put some things in perspective. Western society is under threat from terrorists. There's no question about that, either.
The real issue is how to address that threat. There are two properties we want such a solution to have. We want it to be effective, and we want it to preserve our society.
Analysis of the September 11 attacks has shown that we had information and clues that we simply didn't put together. Some of this is hindsight, and some is not going to happen that way again. We know that there are bad people out there. If (as is alleged at times) a certain judge was reticent to give a certain type of warrant, that's less likely to happen now than two years ago. Our main issue is analyzing information more than collecting it. Any time you have problems in timely analysis, the problem is not helped by collecting more data.
The real problem, however, is the baby, not the bath water. The PATRIOT Act is a huge expansion in potentially abusive government powers, and about the only good thing about it is that it came with a time limit.
The biggest danger to our society in this whole mess is knowing when we can stand down. In a real war, you know who the enemy is, and when they are defeated. How do we know now we've won (which I have every confidence we will)? If we have to wait until the last evil person is imprisoned or dead, we'll be waiting a long, long time.
Expanded government powers tend to be used reasonably by the people who put them in place. They understand the dangers in them. However, as time goes on, the temptation to use those powers in new ways becomes greater and greater. As an example, the RICO laws have been used for things that are not racketeering by any means, and the government has been slapped for that, too.
The dangers in the PATRIOT Act are that it will be renewed once it is supposed to expire, and it will then not be used against foreign terrorists, but domestic ones -- most importantly, people in the opposition party. I say "opposition party" because history tells us that it will be misused by the people after the ones who put the expanded powers in place.
For example, the expanded powers in the Special Prosecutor laws were allowed to expire only after they created a morass that everyone could agree was a national embarrassment. We can hope that we have the strength to let the PATRIOT Act expire or throw it out before it becomes a cautionary tale for future generations.
So to sum up -- yes, it's an invasion of privacy, and I'm not sure that trying to improve it by putting in time limits, notifications and so on is in anyone's interest. The worst of all outcomes would be emergency powers that can't help a real emergency, abuses innocent people and stays around forever.

Nexus :: Stereo Bluetooth Headsets / No Media SoundsJan 18, 2010
I have a Moto stereo BT headset, and find that I am having an almost impossible time of pairing it. It works to make calls, but I can never get the media sound to come through, even though it says it is connected, I think it has maybe worked twice, with constant turning off and on of both BT on the N1 and the headset.
I noticed I had a lot of problems with my G1 sometimes, but nothing this extreme, the most it would take with the G1 is 1 or 2 tries. The first time I tried it with the N1 it worked perfect, and figured it had finally been fixed, but ever since it is more of a nightmare than ever.

Whether planted in the ground or in container gardens on the patio or pool deck, plants with large leaves attract attention. They make striking focal points when surrounded by standard-sized shrubs and perennials. If space permits, a grouping of three can anchor the corner of a large flowerbed. Large-leafed plants act as effective screening that will not interfere with air circulation around necessary mechanical equipment such as air conditioners or pool pumps.
Banana Tree image by SISS-Solutions.com from Fotolia.com
Banana plants, Musa x paradisiaca are tropical plants that die back when the temperature dips too low, but unless temperatures fall below -5 degrees C (22 degrees F), the rhizomes will live and produce new shoots in the spring. Moving potted plants to protected areas and tenting plants in the ground can help ensure their survival. Flowers and fruit are unlikely in domestic settings, but banana plants are worth having for their appearance alone. Some varieties reach a height of 25 feet or more, but dwarfs of just 7 feet are available. All varieties have the distinctive huge leaves for which they are prized. Banana plants require consistently moist soil and full sun to perform best.
Rice Paper Plant
Pith from the stems of Tetrapanax papyiferus, or rice paper plant, is used to produce a type of rice paper; however, the plant's main function is purely decorative. Fanlike, lobed leaves grow from 10 to 15 inches across at the ends of long stems. Rice paper plant is an evergreen shrub or small tree that can grow to 15 feet tall and wide. A suckering plant that is prone to forming thickets, it bears watching if space is limited. Potting it will eliminate this risk. Rice paper plant requires light shade and regular water. It will die back in killing frosts, but it will send up fresh sprouts when temperatures warm. Contact with the foliage of rice paper plant can cause a rash.
Canna Lily
Canna Leaves image by Jennifer Grush from Fotolia.com
Canna is the only genus in the family Cannaceae. It has 10 species with large, attractive leaves and brilliantly coloured flowers. Cannas are not true lilies; they are relatives of banana and ginger plants and share some of their characteristics. Leaves resemble those of the banana plant and may be solid green, brown, maroon, bronze or green variegated with pink, red, cream or white. Flowers are yellow, orange, red or a combination of these colours. Cannas prefer sun but tolerate shade. Moist soil is a requirement. Hundreds of cultivars exist in sizes ranging from less than 3 feet to more than 8 feet in height. Cannas look best in masses and make bold statements when combined with other tropical plants.

text: Turkey FM: Kurdish YPG in Afrin are a security threat Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu on the Afrin offensive, the GCC crisis, and relations with Trump's America. 03 Feb 2018 12:50 GMT Syria's War, Turkey, Kurds, Turkey-Syria border, United States Geopolitically placed between the East and the West, Turkey plays a hugely important and strategic role in many of the region's crises and conflicts, including the ongoing Syrian war. On January 20, Turkey launched Operation Olive Branch, an air and ground offensive against Afrin in northwestern Syria. The region is controlled by the Syrian Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) which Turkey considers a "terrorist group". "There have been YPG/PKK terrorists in Afrin region and they were sending harassment fires and rockets to Turkey ... It became a serious threat to our security and to our borders," Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told Al Jazeera. These two issues (YPG support and Gulen) have fuelled anti-American emotions and sentiments in Turkey. And overall, there is a lack of trust. Mevlut Cavusoglu "We warned them. We warned the countries who have been engaged with them. Nevertheless, they increased the harassment fires. That's why we launched this operation ..." Asked about US-made weapons that were captured from Kurdish fighters and the United States' open support for Kurdish fighters, Cavusoglu said: "Those weapons have been given by the United States to YPG. We have asked the US not to give them weapons, but they did. We asked them to stop and President Trump promised Erdogan that they will stop giving weapons to this organisation. In the last phone conversation between the two presidents, President Trump told Erdogan that they stopped ... giving weapons to this organisation." The US Department of State, however, has stated that it still considers the YPG as an ally in the fight against ISIL. "It's called [a] double standard. Particularly in our fight against terrorism we see this double standard everywhere ... The US ... are fighting all sorts of terrorist organisations in the world, but in Syria, they are collaborating with a terrorist organisation," the Turkish FM told Al Jazeera. US-Turkish relations have been strained in the past few years, especially since the attempted coup in July 2016. In 2017, the US imposed travel restrictions on Turks and Turkey reciprocated with similar measures for Americans. "Normally, we don't have any problems with any allies ... But ... if they take any action against Turkey, it will be reciprocated by Turkey. Turkey has changed," said Cavusoglu. He explained that in recent years US-Turkish relations have not been easy, because of "their support of YPG ... which is a terrorist organisation and posing a direct threat to Turkey. Secondly, after the attempted coup, we asked the US to extradite Fethullah Gulen ... So far, they haven't." "These two issues have fuelled anti-American emotions and sentiments in Turkey. And overall, there is a lack of trust," he added. "First, we need to rebuild this trust." GCC crisis: 'Why are you trying to divide the Muslim world?' When in, June 2017, neighbouring countries imposed an air, sea and land blockade on Qatar, the Turkish foreign minister travelled the region in an attempt to broker an end to the GCC crisis. From the start of the crisis, Ankara has played a pivotal role in assisting Qatar to weather the blockade. "The decision against Qatar was not fair ... It has been a very unfortunate situation. We don't want to see such a division in the GCC or in the Muslim world. Stability in the GCC is so important for all of us," Cavusoglu told Al Jazeera. "There are some claims and accusations, but so far, not even a single evidence has been shared. And each time I see someone from Kuwait leadership, I ask them if they have a received any evidence about these accusations, and they say 'No' ..." He believes that "it was a very much political decision, and unfortunately, it didn't serve the interest of any countries in the region. I hope they will overcome this situation soon, and we still believe that Saudi Arabia can lead the process to overcome this situation."Source: Al Jazeera News Tell us what you think

A 10-Point Plan for Houses (Without Being Overwhelmed)

By Katie Staab
I opened my eyes, disoriented in the snowy January twilight, and immediately knew I needed to focus on my breath. I was just coming to after losing control of my car on an icy road, resulting in a collision that sent my car careening into the ditch. In the hours to come, I'd learn that my four rib fractures had punctured my right lung, filling my chest cavity with fluid and collapsing my lung. Yet, even without the medical explanations, I knew in that initial moment of consciousness that I needed to breathe.
Since my accident, I've spent a lot of time thinking about breathing. Deep breathing is important to the physical healing of my lung, but I'm also learning its place in the emotional, mental and spiritual process of healing. In yoga, prana is a sanskrit word for breath, but more importantly, it implies our life force. If we choose to think about our breath being a force that carries with it our life and what we go through, it takes on a whole new meaning.
Here are three lessons I've learned about breathing through my recovery:
Breathing creates pause, helping us create space for healing in our bodies, minds and busy lives. There's a reason that we take a deep breath when we need to pause. It's a physical way of pulling the reins on ourselves when our thoughts or emotions threaten to run out of control. Likewise, healing (physical, emotional or otherwise) requires us to pause our busy lives — slow down, rest, reflect. Deep breathing helps remove the pressure of our hurried lives, reminding us that this pause isn't an inconvenience to be rushed through, but a rich, revitalizing season of life. Continue reading
