IUCN is working with a number of organisations to develop a set of guidelines on minimising the risk of biological invasions that may result from biofuel developments. The project was launched because of growing concerns that a rush to develop biofuels may open the door to new invasions by introduced species. There is also increasing evidence to suggest that potential future biofuel feedstocks are "high risk" species that pose a serious threat to ecosystems and livelihoods.
In recognition of these risks, IUCN hosted a workshop on biofuels and invasive species in Nairobi, Kenya on April 20th-22nd 2009. The workshop convened a group of experts from the region to identify risks along the biofuel production and supply chain and weaknesses with current regulations. Workshop participants identified a number of risks and deficits associated with current and emerging biofuel developments in the region and proposed some potential solutions that constitute the foundations of these guidelines. The guidelines aim to highlight the risks of biological invasion by species introduced for biofuels production and to provide constructive recommendations on how to prevent the introduction, establishment and spread of invading species resulting from biofuel developments. The guidelines are structured for decisions and actions along the biofuel supply chain:
- Feedstock selection and development, and feasibility assessments.
- Importation of feedstocks
- Feedstock production
- Transportation/processing
The guidelines are now available for feedback and we would be very grateful to hear your suggestions for improvements. Please send any comments to [email protected] by 31st August 09.

Search Manziel and find No. 2 Texas A&M jersey at NCAA store
An NCAA rule prohibits jerseys with a player's name on the back from being sold.
Most NCAA FBS schools sell jerseys with just a few different numbers on them, usually the number of the school's most high-profile players.
MORE: Manziel: 'A pattern of bad judgment' | SN All-Americans | ACC stats that matter
The NCAA Shop has college football jerseys for sale, and the interesting thing noted today on Twitter by Jay Bilas is that while you won't find jerseys with names on them, you can search specific player names and find their numbered jerseys.
For example, type Johnny Manziel, Jadeveon Clowney, AJ McCarron, TJ Yeldon, Braxton Miller, Tajh Boyd, Teddy Bridgewater or Marqise Lee—to name a few—and you'll find jerseys for Texas A&M No. 2, South Carolina No. 7, Alabama No. 10 and No. 4, Ohio State No. 5, Clemson No. 10, Louisville No. 5 and USC No. 9.
But by Tuesday afternoon, the "search" function on the NCAA site was disabled.
What make that interesting is that the NCAA isn't supposed to market jerseys with player names on them. Yes, there are no names, but the fact you can find jerseys by player name seems wrong. Even more interesting that you can find Manziel, who is reportedly at the center of an NCAA investigation for allegedly accepting payment for signing autographs.
And as you can see by the photos, the search terms were for players only, not university names.
Schools receive a 10 percent royalty of the gross profit from jersey sales, according to Bill Sayer of CBPJNow.com.

If you just couldn't get enough of the eccentric Jimmy McMillan, the gloved wonder who ran for governor on the singular issue that the rent is just too damn high, then you are in luck.
DAMN! is a feature-length documentary chronicling the story of "Rent is Too Damn High" party founder Jimmy McMillan, a Vietnam veteran, black belt karate master, former stripper and 1970's soul singer. The film is a finalist at the Little Rock Film Festival and an official selection at the Brooklyn Film Festival. It will be released on August 16.
McMillan became an overnight sensation after his appearance on the 2010 televised New York gubernatorial debate. Footage of the debate went viral, receiving over 2 million views in 24 hours.
Director Aaron Fisher-Cohen documented McMillan throughout the entirety of his campaign for governor of New York, and the events directly following his loss of election. And now you can relive them in full color on the moving pictures screen.
Everybody gets their 15 minutes, we guess. And some get a little more.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Ogden • When it comes to defensive football, it is the unknown that is most hurtful.
Just ask Weber State, which dropped its final chance to win a home game in 2012, losing 42-34 on a cold, sometimes snowy Saturday afternoon at Stewart Stadium.
"They hadn't been playing the play-action stuff," Weber State coach Jody Sears said. "We hadn't seen any of it a little boot, a little play action. But the play-action downtown stuff, they were egg-beaters."
On Senior Day for WSU, it was Northern Colorado quarterback Seth Lobato who turned the Wildcats' scrambled defense into an omelet. Lobato completed 24 of 38 attempts for a season-high 418 yards the third most in school history and four touchdowns.
Lobato also rushed for a score early in the fourth quarter to give the Bears (4-6, 3-4 BSC) a 35-20 lead, one that would eventually give UNC its first-ever win against Weber State (1-9, 1-6) in seven tries.
Next week, the Wildcats travel to Idaho State in a battle of one-win teams.
"Their quarterback was on point today," said WSU linebacker Trevor Pletcher. "He was pretty accurate, but we should have played a lot better than we did today."
Throughout Weber State's disappointing season, it has been the offense that has played catchup. For example, the Wildcats finally scored a first-quarter touchdown 10 games into the season.
WSU quarterback Mike Hoke did enjoy his best game of 2012, throwing for 310 yards and four scores.
Hoke, however, wasn't satisfied.
"If we had 100 [total] yards, as long as we win," he said. "All the stats are irrelevant now. It felt good. We had a couple of series, it felt like our offense was where we're capable of being."
On Saturday, the defense, which had been playing well, gave up 540 total yards, a testament to poor tackling and pass coverage.
Northern Colorado had two scoring drives of two and three plays. The most damaging came moments after Weber State had closed the deficit to 35-27 midway through the fourth quarter.
Hoke and Brian Jankowski, who combined for a 3-yard scoring pass, had barely sat down when Lobato and Dominic Gunn, who caught 190 yards worth of passes, hooked up on a 69-yard strike to the WSU 2-yard line.
It was the first play of the drive, and UNC pushed it over for the score on the next play.

History is a precious and perhaps debatable thing. One man's piece of art is another man's junk.That's how it goes.But in general terms, we think that most people would agree that items of historical significance should be protected and honored. Places that frame who we are and how we began should be important.There is currently a movement by the Fuller Lodge Historic District Advisory Board to preserve our precious history.It is in this vein that we find the council's decision to destroy the Municipal Building very disturbing.The facility has stood on Ashley Pond since 1967, was the centerpiece of our creation as a county and is a beautiful landmark that has come to symbolize Los Alamos.The council's decision is very hard to understand.Yes, the county keeps telling us there are structural problems. But even the structural engineer that they brought in said it could be repaired – and for less money than building a new building.Why then, is it being torn down? We don't understand the logic.Yes, we understand the desire of staff to have a fancier building and cooler offices. But when that new building will cost us some $4 million more and destroy our history, we are left wondering about the logic here.We are sad that the county council is so willing to throw away our history – and spent extra millions in the process.

Early Years
George Brinton McClellan was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on December 3, 1826, to Dr. George McClellan and Elizabeth Steinmetz Brinton. He studied law at the University of Pennsylvania for two years, beginning when he was just thirteen years old. His father, a distinguished ophthalmologist who had founded Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia in 1824, had good connections in the Whig Party. When young McClellan decided to abandon the law for the military, his father used those connections to earn his son an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. In 1846, McClellan finished second in a class of fifty-nine that included future Confederate generals Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson (who finished seventeenth) and George E. Pickett (who finished last).
During the Mexican War (1846–1848), McClellan was posted to the staff of General Winfield Scott—a Whig Party friend of his father's—and he served alongside Robert E. Lee and Pierre G. T. Beauregard. After the war, he commanded an engineering company at West Point, translated a French bayonet manual into English, and worked as a surveyor on the Red River in Texas. In 1855, he was promoted to captain and traveled to Europe to observe the Crimean War (1853–1856). When he returned to the United States, he wrote a cavalry manual and designed the so-called McClellan saddle that remained in use until the twentieth century.
McClellan supported the Democrat Stephen A. Douglas in his successful 1858 U.S. Senate race against Republican Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was the Illinois Central's lawyer, and McClellan remembered him fondly from those days, despite assertions from biographers that personal hostility between the two men began at this time. McClellan married Ellen Marcy in May 1860 (with Joseph E. Johnston in attendance), took an executive position at the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad a month later, and in the November presidential election again supported Douglas over Lincoln. When Lincoln was elected, secession and civil war followed.
Beginning of the War
Following the Confederate firing on Fort Sumter, South Carolina, on April 12, 1861, McClellan reentered the military and advanced quickly. On April 23, he accepted command of Ohio's militia. On May 3, he took charge of the U.S. Army's Department of Ohio, and on May 14, he was commissioned a major general in the Regular Army, second in rank only to his former Mexican War commander, Winfield Scott. McClellan organized one of the war's first offensives, securing the western, Unionist section of Virginia in a campaign marked by rugged terrain and inexperienced soldiers on both sides. In the Rich Mountain Campaign (June–July 1861), conceived to secure the vital Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and Parkersburg Turnpike, Union forces defeated a smaller Confederate army under Robert S. Garnett (who was killed in the fighting).
Credit for the victory at Rich Mountain rightfully belongs to William S. Rosecrans. Still, battlefield success put McClellan's name in the papers, especially after the Union defeat at the First Battle of Manassas on July 21. Lincoln summoned McClellan to Washington, D.C., to take command of the defeated Union troops there on July 26. His train from western Virginia attracted enthusiastic crowds of well-wishers who already considered him to be a national hero and potentially a military savior. McClellan's meteoric rise, fueled by political connections and an early battlefield victory, may have been intoxicating for a man not yet forty years old, but it also marked a high point in his life that, arguably, would never be equaled.
The Army of the Potomac
In the meantime, a rift developed between McClellan and Scott. "Old Fuss and Feathers," as the now-elderly Virginian was called, was furious with McClellan for ignoring the chain of command—which he did only with Lincoln's acquiescence—and for communicating directly with members of the president's cabinet. McClellan became convinced that he could win a contest of wills with Scott and began undermining him in the cabinet. On November 1, less than two weeks after the Union defeat at Ball's Bluff, Scott resigned. McClellan was immediately appointed commanding general of the U.S. Army and he assured the president, "I can do it all."
It was not long, however, before he and Lincoln clashed over war strategy. The president, under intense pressure from the newly formed Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War, called for an immediate advance on Joseph E. Johnston's entrenched forces at Manassas. McClellan urged caution, giving credence to intelligence reports that grossly inflated Johnston's numbers. He also preferred secrecy, worrying that sharing war plans with Lincoln and his cabinet would compromise security. In December 1861 McClellan contracted typhoid fever and Lincoln, frustrated by McClellan's inaction, held strategy meetings with the general's subordinates. This end-around may have finally spurred McClellan to submit plans for capturing Richmond. Although still pale and weak from illness, he, too, was facing pressure to end, in the biting words of secretary of war Edwin M. Stanton, "the champagne and oysters on the Potomac."
The Battles for Richmond
Lincoln was especially nervous about the capital's defense—McClellan's plan put Johnston between Washington and the bulk of Union forces—and after some initial confusion about troop numbers, the president held back a third of McClellan's men. The general lost even more troops when Lee, in a successful attempt to divert attention away from Richmond, dispatched Stonewall Jackson to the Shenandoah Valley. All of this, combined with McClellan's concern over a split command, led to his increasingly acrimonious relationship with Lincoln.
The Peninsula Campaign, as it took shape, did nothing to improve those relations. The springtime march toward the Confederate capital was methodical and plagued by bad weather and inaccurate maps. As he did at Manassas, McClellan was tempted to see before him stiffer resistance than actually existed (a truth exploited at Yorktown by the theatrically inclined John B. Magruder). His belief in a limited war also made him hesitant to fight bloody battles of attrition. While Lincoln urged his general to move more quickly and act more decisively, McClellan bemoaned to his wife of "traitors" in Washington. Speculation began to circulate that McClellan's case of "the slows," to quote Lincoln, was because he was a Democrat. Although McClellan was no more supportive of secession than he was of abolition, some suggested he was too sympathetic to the South.
The Confederates attacked at Seven Pines on May 31, and only stubborn fighting and timely reinforcements allowed McClellan to avoid disaster. After Johnston was severely wounded, Lee took command and went on the offensive. The resulting Seven Days' Battles (June 25–July 1) were fiercely fought but, for Union forces, a bitter defeat. By then, McClellan blamed the Republicans in Washington for everything. "You have done your best to sacrifice this army," he telegrammed Stanton. (Stanton, however, never read that sentence; an alarmed telegraph operator deleted it.)
Historians have long echoed Lincoln's critique of McClellan—that he was too slow, too arrogant, too unwilling to take casualties, and too willing to claim himself directed by God. Historian Stephen W. Sears is perhaps the harshest of these critics, arguing that McClellan's "deep concern for his men, his fixation with avoiding casualties, revealed a sensitivity of nature admirable in most of life's pursuits but crippling when making war." Ethan S. Rafuse has sought to revise that judgment, suggesting that McClellan's conservative Whig background accounted for his reasonable "emphasis on logistics, sieges, and carefully executed maneuvers whose costs and risks could be rationally calculated."
McClellan believed that killing men—his own or the enemy's—in bloody battles only hindered efforts to reconcile North and South. In a civil war, attrition as a strategy would only prolong the bitterness and ill feeling. In addition, he saw the Union defeat at Manassas as evidence that Lincoln's case of "the fasts" had not served the nation well. Of course, it hasn't helped McClellan's legacy that he took the field against Lee, whose romance and daring—polished and shined by the Lost Cause view of the war—seem to have distracted many from his ultimate defeat.
In 1862, it was only Lincoln's opinion that mattered, and the president plucked Henry W. Halleck from command in the West and made him general-in-chief. The Army of the Potomac was withdrawn to Washington and largely disbanded in favor of a new army under John Pope, which was promptly defeated by Lee's Army of Northern Virginia at the Second Battle of Manassas. Lee seized the opportunity to launch his first invasion of the North and, as his troops crossed the Potomac River on September 5, Lincoln and Halleck saw no other alternative but to offer McClellan command of his old army.
He quickly pushed westward and drove Lee from South Mountain on September 14, inflicting defeat upon the Army of Northern Virginia. A day later, Lee established a defensive position across Antietam Creek, urging his generals Jackson and A. P. Hill to join him on the double. That McClellan didn't attack immediately has been the source of some controversy because it allowed Lee to fully consolidate his force. McClellan's force, however, was not fully consolidated either, and he was hampered by fog on September 16. That he drove Lee from Maryland when he finally did attack—at dawn on September 17, in what was the bloodiest single day of the war—is itself a significant achievement. Historians have decried McClellan's caution, but from September 6 until September 19, he marched his army seventy miles, fought offensively in two battles against what he believed to be a numerically superior army, and drove it out of Maryland per Lincoln's direction. Many generals could have benefited from such caution.
Still, in the end, Lee's army was not destroyed and Lincoln continued to worry that McClellan's pursuit was insufficiently aggressive. McClellan, in turn, was disappointed that the president had used Antietam as an excuse to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. In the general's view—fashioned by his Whig and conservative background and sharpened, perhaps, by his sometimes intemperate dislike of Lincoln—the war was not and should not be about slavery. In the weeks that followed, McClellan resisted his commander-in-chief's naïve demands to march directly on Richmond, and on November 5, the day after the autumn congressional elections, he was relieved of command. Two days later, Ambrose Burnside—having already turned down the position twice, partly out of loyalty to his old friend—took over the Army of the Potomac. Unlike the politicians, the soldiers in the army he created were still intensely loyal to their "Little Mac." They were as sorry to see him go as they were skeptical of their new, bushy-cheeked commander.
Later Years
After the war McClellan lived in New Jersey and worked as chief engineer for the New York City Department of Docks. He was elected and served creditably as governor of New Jersey from 1878 until 1881, and then served on the Board of Directors for the National Home for Disabled Soldiers. He died from heart failure on October 29, 1885, in Orange, New Jersey, and was buried in Trenton.
McClellan has always been one of the Civil War's most controversial figures. While his military caution led to speculation that his political sympathies were not solidly pro-war and pro-Union, it also defined the nature of conflict in Virginia. Until Ulysses S. Grant initiated the so-called hard war in 1864, it would be limited and not directed at the enemy's civilians or resources. McClellan clashed with Lincoln over war strategy and even challenged him for office, and he has been accused of everything from paranoid delusions to disloyalty. He has not, however, been given enough credit for his successes, the most notable of which was expelling Lee from Maryland.
Not to be ignored, McClellan's generalship received two important endorsements. The first is by the soldiers who served under him, who almost without exception loved him. His departure from the Army of the Potomac even led to suggestions that he install himself in Washington as a dictator. (McClellan adamantly repudiated such talk.) The other endorsement came after the war, when a relative of Robert E. Lee's asked the former Confederate general to name his most able opponent during the war. Thumping the table emphatically, Lee replied, "McClellan, by all odds!"

WALTHAM, Mass.- The 17th-ranked Brandeis Men's soccer team extended their winning streak to three games in non-conference action against the Mount Ida College Mustangs with a 5-0 drubbing. Junior midfielder Kyle Feather (Pinebrook, N.J./ Montville Township) led the Judges attack with a goal and assist in the first half before notching his second career multi-goal game in the second period. Brandeis improves to 14-1-1 on the year while Mount Ida falls to 6-10-1.
In the first half, the Judges took control early when senior forward Sam Ocel (No. Attleboro, Mass./ No. Attleboro) got them on the board in the 7th minute. Senior forward Lee Russo (Westford, Mass./ Westford Acad.) ripped a shot from about 25 yards out and after it deflected off of two defenders, the ball found Ocel's feet. He did not miss as he slammed home his seventh of the season to give Brandeis a 1-0 lead. That strike also moved Ocel into 20th place on Brandeis' All-Time Points list. Just two and a half minutes later, Russo extended the lead on his own when Feather slid a great through ball into the box and Russo finished for his team-leading 12th goal. With a goal and an assist, Russo became the 10th player in Brandeis history to reach 80 career points as he jumped into a 9th-place tie. The Judges weren't done yet when a little less than five minutes later, Feather added on to the lead. Russo took a free kick from deep in Mustang territory that rookie midfielder Jake Picard (Suffield, Conn./ Suffield) had a good chance at. Still, the shot was cleared off the line by a defender only to find the feet of Feather who slipped the ball into the left hand corner of the net for a 3-0 halftime lead.
In the second period, the Judges did not let up and continued to dominate possession and the match. After having the advantage in shots (8-2) and corners (4-1) in the first, Brandeis duplicated that effort in the second with a 13-6 advantage in shots and a 7-3 edge in corners. Feather struck again in the 58th minute when the build-up began in the midfield. Sophomore midfielder Foti Andreo (Lynn, Mass./ Phillips Exeter Acad.) found junior defender Ben Applefield (Avon, Conn./ Avon) streaking down the right side of the field. Applefield then chipped a perfect ball into the box where Feather poked the ball around the keeper and blasted it home for the 4-0 lead. Rookie forward Chris Bradley (E. Brunswick, N.J./ E. Brunswick) capped off the scoring for the evening in the 79th minute when sophomore forward Tyler Savonen (Orleans, Mass./ Nauset Reg.) blasted a shot at the keeper from inside the box. Even though the goalie made the initial save, Bradley was ready as he dribbled the rebound around the keeper and poked the ball into the empty net for his third of the season.
Brandeis' senior goalie Blake Minchoff (Fiskdale, Mass./ Tantasqua Reg.) earned the win with a clean sheet in the first half after needing to make only one save. Sophomore Joe Graffy (Concord, N.H./ Concord) made his second appearance of the season in the second period and rookie Kenn Fryer (Wilmington, Mass./ St. John's Prep.) came on for the final 12 minutes while making a save in his first collegiate action. Mount Ida's sophomore goalie Matt Pils (Monroe, Conn./ Masuk) recorded a match-high four stops.
The Judges return to action on October 26th for a UAA matchup on Gordon Field against Emory at 6:30 p.m.

Last week, with a warm sun pouring into his sitting room and an ocean breeze rustling the chimes on his porch, Robert Farrell and I talked about his candidacy for the seat Janice Hahn recently vacated on the Los Angeles City Council. That's right, Robert Farrell.
Bob Farrell, as those who know the modern history of this city will realize, served on the City Council for most of two decades before retiring in 1991, and he was generally admired for his idealism and for his canniness, if not always for his effectiveness. Now he's hoping for a comeback.
Farrell began his career in politics while in college, helping to elect Joel Wachs — himself a veteran of renown — to his first office: student body president of UCLA. Farrell was a Freedom Rider, challenging segregationist laws in the South by traveling on public transportation.
Over the course of his 17 years on the City Council, Farrell championed South African divestment, neighborhood organization and an ambitious Jobs With Peace initiative; he also fended off two recall campaigns and allegations that he steered thousands of dollars in city money to his ex-wife (the district attorney closed that investigation without filing charges).
From 1974 to 1991, Farrell represented the 8th Council District in South Los Angeles, governing alongside his patron, Mayor Tom Bradley, whose 1973 election upended this city's politics and whose long tenure transformed them. Bradley was stern and forbidding, Farrell shrewd and racy. For those who don't know Bob Farrell, think of it this way: His run for City Council is as if Joe Namath were today trying out for the New York Jets.
In 1991, after 17 years on the council, Farrell left. He was on his third marriage, dogged by the conflict-of-interest probe of which he eventually was cleared, seen as vulnerable by a new generation of African American leaders. Just after New Year's Day in 1991, he announced his retirement, endorsed Mark Ridley-Thomas for his office and walked away.
So what is Farrell, 20 years later, doing running for an office that he walked away from when some current voters had yet to be born? His entry into the race is such an odd move that some political mavens have eyed it with a hint of suspicion, wondering whether he might be stalking for another candidate.
Nope, says Farrell, settling into a soft wicker chair in his sitting room, his Chihuahua puppy Chubby by his side. Farrell attributes his resurgent interest in city politics to a recent reunion of the Freedom Riders. "They brought back the spirit of bearing witness," he said. He left with a renewed desire to serve.
Farrell sees his mission in this race to elevate the role of the city's neighborhood councils and to revitalize their presence in policymaking. That's a novel view at City Hall, where the councils are given lip service but largely ignored. In Farrell's view, the council largely views the councils as civics lessons for participants. Instead of addressing real city issues, he says, they're being "taught Robert's Rules of Order."
He would like to see them step up to the city's challenges. What are the appropriate rates for the Department of Water and Power to charge customers? Should Los Angeles authorize a football stadium downtown? What should the city be doing to modernize the waterfront in San Pedro?
"The promise of neighborhood councils is there," he said. "The practice is not."
Can Farrell win? Probably not. He won't enjoy labor's support. Assemblyman Warren Furutani is likely to garner most of that, though Pat McCosker, head of the city's firefighter union, will get a share too. Former City Councilman Rudy Svorinich Jr. represented this district before and has been given a second life by the extension of term limits. He'll be far more familiar to voters of the area, even though he sports a new look (the burly, bushy-haired Svorinich has given way to a trimmer, shaved-headed one). And there are another dozen candidates elbowing for the position as well.
But it could break just right. Furutani and McCosker could cancel each other out among union members; Svorinich could stumble. The other candidates could each pick up slivers, meaning that a few hundred votes could make a difference.
Win or lose, Farrell figures that he can make a point about neighborhood power, and in the process highlight some of what worries him about City Hall. It's too dominated by Sacramento politicians, he says, and that's made its debates more factional, less community-oriented. In his day, Farrell reflects, "we were part of a team, and Tom Bradley was the team leader."
When I venture the observation that I've never heard a current member of the City Council refer to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa as its "team leader," Farrell chuckles and pets Chubby.
Farrell is approaching 75 years old. He's been out of politics a long time. But he thinks he might have one more shot. He leans back in his chair for a moment, crosses his legs and listens to the chimes on the porch. "There," he says. "I hear another bell."

Extended Protection (link) (link) is a feature in Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 that prevents certain MITM attacks.
Does anyone have a primer (or explanation in plain English) what this feature is, and if there are any other benefits besides MITM protection?
How do I audit, control and verify that my applications are using this technology?
Is there a way I can identify applications that are not using this technology, and report on them or administratively disable them?
Are there cases when Extended Protection is undesired, or otherwise incompatible?
