The start of any new year is a good time for reflection. This year, in particular, as I look out on the bulldozers and cranes and Virginia dirt so familiar now on campus, I can't help but think what a monumental time this is for Liberty. The new developments and the new buildings — they are testaments, tributes; they are milestones marking our progress. Stand in any spot on campus and you'll be standing on answered prayers. You'll be looking up at structures grounded in faith.
These milestones mark not only how far we've come, but how far we're going to go. In 2012 we opened the doors to the new Hancock Welcome Center and broke ground on our highly anticipated Jerry Falwell Library, as well as on our new baseball stadium and the Center for Medical and Health Sciences. The vision once cast is taking shape as a university like no other. Liberty has emerged as one of the preeminent universities not only in the Christian community, but in the nation. Our newly formed School of Music (already the seventh largest in the country) will see construction begin on its own building this year, and the first of six new residence halls will go up on the Circle.
But we're not just building a campus here; we're building lives. I encourage you to flip through the pages of this Journal because on them you'll find blueprints for the future. Our students are Liberty's greatest construction project. We are using every available resource to acquire exceptional faculty and staff, to build exceptional educational facilities and training grounds, to do what it takes so that exceptional graduates take their Liberty diplomas and use them to build a better future for this country and for the world.
Our nation is standing at a crossroads — recent political events have placed Liberty in a position of unique opportunity. We're not afraid to be there. Whether in the courts, on fields of competition, or in any academic arena, we are committed to turn every opportunity we're given into a flame of excellence for God's glory. The world has noticed, and others in the spotlight are drawn to Liberty. They film us. They write about us. They come and speak to us.
Liberty is growing, not just in square footage, but in influence and in impact. 2013 will bear witness to the mark Liberty is leaving on the world.
Jerry Falwell, Jr.
Chancellor and President

UnNews:International elections, a real hassle
This article is part of UnNews, your source for up-to-the-microsecond misinformation.
5 May 2007
Various countries are holding presidential elections this year. UnNews is highlighting a few of the prominent candidates for those countries who are important to the democratic way of life. Currently, and unfortunately, UnNews doesn't have any direct quotes or interviews for the reason . . .well because well . . . are you kidding you could get boiled in water, drawn and quatered, given a Columbian necklace, or jerked up for trying a stunt like that...get your own damn sound bytes, bitch! We're just reporting the facts.
The candidates for president are Abdullah Gül and Ersönmez Yarbay both come from families who relied on sheep herding during the Cold War. Abdullah Gül is the party leader for the Keep Turkey Beautiful Party. Currently, he is still running for the position despite heavy opposition from the proletariat. Ersönmez Yarbay couldn't think up a catchy party to be head of, so Yarbay withdrew early on.
On April 1, the Constitutional Court announced that eight candidates would contest the election for president of Mali. Current President Touré, and bunch of people we've never heard of; Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta, Mamadou Blaise Sangaré, Tiébilé Dramé, Soumeylou Boubèye Maiga, Oumar Mariko, Sidibe Aminata Diallo, and Madiassa Maguiraga have registered for candidacy.
Unfortunately, some other random candidate-to-be, Modibo Sangaré, was rejected by the court on the grounds that he had not paid the required bond of 10 million francs. Is that all, I think UnNews or the CIA could chip in a nickel or dime or two...
Who? Where? This country has three candidates, that we can't even pronounce and forgot how to spell.
Sierra Leone[edit]
Currently under civil war and daily strife. Elections are still being held. The current ruling body is allowing all opposition leaders to come forth and register for the 2007 elections. To date, nobody has responded or come forth.
Bamir Topi is the candidate of the right-wing parties that have the majority in the parliament. Sali Berisha—Current prime minister and former president has advocated for president elected by direct popular suffrage—but is too late to be added according to some low level parliament members. Albania's electoral system works very similar to that of the United States system.
Israel, the country that is constantly having the crap bombed out of it by muslim extremists and soccer-moms, has declared that it will be holding elections to fill the current vacancy of president. Irregardless of the daily strife, several
suckers patriotic Israelis have stepped up for candidacy. The list reads as a who's who of Israeli politics; former Prime Minister Shimon Peres of Kadima, former Labor Party chairman Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, former Knesset speaker Reuven Rivlin of Likud, former Ashkenazi Chief rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau, former Supreme Court President Meir Shamgar, and except Colette Avital who is the former of nothing, but is still running anyway.
Last, on our short list of 2007 International highlight's, is lovely Argentine. The country which always holds the most responsible and reputable of elections. The current list of candidates includes incumbent president Néstor Kirchner, Kirchner's wife Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, the presidents driver Carlos Menem, the butler Roberto Lavagna, the president's mistress Elisa Carrió, and the manservant of Kirchner's wife Mauricio Macri.
- Completely made up by UnNews. We really don't think (or aren't sure) some of these countries exist, or much less really have elections (you know...wink...wink). But in the case that something here sounds like a real person, place, or thing, then it is in fact a noun, but only by coincidence. Additionally, UnNews would like to apologize for the trite remarks at the beginning of the article. The original writer of this article will promptly be forced to run the gauntlet, suffer slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, and be teased with blueberry muffins until they go out and get those goddamn quotes as required per their contractual obligations!!!

I only have one picture of the glue it on step because it's kind of a no brainer. Add a length of ribbon to the back for hanging if needed first. Next, cut the stems from your hydrangeas and cover a surface area of the form with hot glue. Stick your hydrangeas down putting even pressure so it will stick but taking care not to crush it. Continue until you're finished!
You will have to go back at the end taking small cuttings to fill in the gaps. I think this wreath took me a total of 15 minutes from start to finish! I have had it a few different places and I like it everywhere. I have a love affair with hydrangeas though and my house is surrounded by them. Their leaves are just now beginning to come out for the year and I'm already excited!
|Check out my new dining room chairs!!! More on those later this week along with the beginning of the dining room makeover. (See the old ones here)
A note on drying hydrangeas.
I had the dried hydrangeas for this wreath already from my yard last year but drying them is super easy even if you buy them from the grocery store. Basically display them in a vase with water and they will slowly dry as the water evaporates. They usually retain their color but it may be a little more muted. It doesn't always work as well with flower shop hydrangeas but I have had plenty of luck. If you are planning on drying them from your own bush wait until the second half of summer when the start to feel slightly papery. They seem to do perfectly from here. If there are a couple brown petals they are easily removed once dried. The funny part about this is this is the way I have always dried my hydrangeas but before typing it here I thought I better Google to see the "real" way. Love it when I just happen to do things right the first time... that's not usually the way things go for me!
This is an easy peasy and potentially free beautiful wreath. I am thinking it is worth it for you to go ahead and plant yourself a hydrangea or two if you don't have one already! Now is the time!
I hope you are having this amazing spring weather like I am! I am headed outside to enjoy it and start working on weeding my flower beds, doing a little pruning, and getting the ground ready to add annuals in a few weeks! YAY!! Spring is the best time of year! Stay tuned for some gardening posts and tutorials coming up.
We Party Here:

Im sure you all have read on Google News Heath that a couple of HIV vaccine trials have been stopped because it didnt look like the vaccines were offering any protection. I was interested in their operational definition of 'not working', as even a slight decrease in HIV infection rates in the vaccinated group vs placebo could mean there is something in the mix that is on the right track.
But this vaccine didnt work. It really didnt work.
Vaccine-- 24 infections out of 741Nothing.
Placebo-- 21 infections in 762
Vaccine + boosters-- 19 infections in 672
Placebo + 'boosters'-- 11 infections in 691
Not even close to being on the right track.

Goodnight from James Bond Island
Miss Moneypenny remembers the Bond Girl who got physical on a slow boat from China…
For a Goodnight, will you be ready with a powerful erection on James Bond Island?
bilden är från (image is from) Britt Ekland Gallery
Del hora y para el momento que vera, James (2)
Britt Ekland is best known for her role as Mary Goodnight, the Bond girl in the 1974 James Bond movie, "The Man with the Golden Gun" and her marriage to Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau (Peter Sellers). In 1984, Britt published a beauty and fitness book, and produced a fitness video in 1992.
Did Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau find Goodnight's Pink Panther hiding undercover in their bedroom during their brief four-year marriage?
For Music Monday, Let's Get Physical by Olivia Newton-John, 1981
According to the Daily Mail Online, Mary Goodnight is another aging actress to suffer from 'trout pout'…
bilden är från (image is from) Ruckas
If only Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau was alive to see her tulips…
When the moments right, will you be ready?
(1) The Solar Energy Collector of Scaramanga's "Solex Agitator" was located on Ko Tapu, better known as James Bond Island (renamed by the locals and tourists) and Scaramanga's hideout was located on Ko Khao Phing Kan. The 1974 Bond film, "The Man with the Golden Gun," turned the unknown Phang Nga Bay into a major tourist attraction.
Both verdant limestone islands are located 47-miles northeast of Phuket, Thailand in the Phang Nga Bay of the Andaman Sea. Ko Tapu (Nail Island) or James Bond Island is 65.6-feet high and lies 656-feet offshore from Ko Khao Phing Kan (hills resting on each other Island) which was Scaramanga's hideout in the 1974 Bond film.
The Green or Red Arrow points to James Bond Island which is also sometimes called Khao Tapu (Nail Hill).
Ko Khao Phing Kan was also featured in the 1997 Bond film, "Tomorrow Never Dies." The island can be seen when Agent 007 (Pierce Brosnan) searches for Carver's stealth ship.
Both islands are protected by the 98,842-acre Ao Phang Nga National Park which was established on April 29, 1981 to protect one of the world's scenic wonders.
(2) "Del hora y para el momento que vera" translates to "Of the hour and for the moment that he will see" in English.
After tasting Phuyuck 74, a wine produced in Bangkok, Thailand, James Bond says "Del hora y para el momento que vera – To this moment, and the moment yet to come" implying that his Spanish toast equals the English translation.
"To this moment, and the moment yet to come." is "A este momento, y el momento aún para venir" in Spanish. After the toast, James notes, "ln our profession, l'm afraid, you never can count on that moment to come."

Mother and daughter team Brooke (left) and Jill (right) Kapple enjoyed Sunday's Color Run

By George Mauzy
Colors were in abundance on the Athens Campus after the completion of The Color Run on Sunday, Nov. 10, at the Ohio University Intramurals Fields.
The Color Run, which held its first race in January 2012, is a for-profit company based out of Salt Lake City, Utah, that creates the fun by dousing participants with colored food-grade cornstarch at four color stations throughout the 5-kilometer course.
The fundraiser attracted more than 2,500 participants who agreed to serve as blank white canvasses to help raise $8,000 for the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity. The Color Run, which is promoted as the "Happiest 5k on the Planet," started and ended at the South Green intramural fields.
One mother and daughter team drove up from Parkersburg, W.Va., to participate in the colorful event.
"We work out together all the time and have run in several 5Ks in the past -- we used today's event as bonding time," said Jill Kapple, the mother of Ohio University sophomore Brooke Kapple. "I really liked looking at all the colorful people, especially the ones in the tutus. This is a great event for a college campus because it gets people out of the house and moving around. It's not competitive, just people having fun."
Brooke Kapple, an athletic training major at Ohio University, said she also enjoyed The Color Run.
"I liked all the colors and would recommend this event to anyone," she said. "It was a lot of fun and it was cool that they came to Athens. They usually hold these events in the bigger cities."
Dane Cannon, the regional director for The Color Run, admitted that most of the races have been held in large cities, but credited Cecil Walters, director of Ohio University's Office for Multicultural Student
and Recruitment, for making a great case for Ohio University and the City of Athens.
"Cecil told us that the Ohio University students petitioned for the event and he expressed how important it was for the campus to host such a large, positive event this fall," Cannon said. "I'm pretty happy about how the event turned out. When I repeatedly hear people say 'That's so cool,' it lets me know they're having a great time."
In addition to thanking Walters for proposing the event, Cannon also thanked City of Athens and Ohio University officials for their help in making the event a success.
"All of the people involved in making this event happen were much nicer than they needed to be," Cannon said.
Walters said he was pleased with how The Color Run turned out after writing the initial proposal to host the event in August. He said he wanted to bring the event to Athens after he ran in The Color Run in Columbus, Ohio, in July. He added that the run was also a great volunteer opportunity for international students, who are actively trying to become more integrated with other undergraduate students at Ohio University.
"The Color Run was a win-win situation for everyone and most importantly it provided leadership and service opportunities for our student volunteers," Walters said. "The whole purpose of hosting it was to raise awareness and funds for the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity and we did that."
When asked about the future of the event in Athens, Walters said he hopes this is just the beginning for an event that both the Ohio University and local communities can enjoy together.
"My hope is to make this an annual event that benefits a different local charity each year," Walters said. "This event also can help our students bridge the gap between them and the local community through their service and leadership."

The future as pre-written past; or the Left's peculiar relationship to "history" *UPDATED*
To me, history is what was. It's the past that's been and gone forever.
To people on the Left, however, history is the future that they shape, which they presume their Leftist scholars will later enshrine in propagandistic history books. I thought of that peculiar viewpoint last night when watching a PBS special about the JFK assassination, an event that doesn't interest me at all. The most interesting thing about it is a conspiracy theorist's kerfuffle in its wake. As for me, I believe in a single gunman acting out a Communist fantasy because, today's Leftist belief to the contrary, Kennedy was a fierce anti-Communist.
The PBS show wasn't a bad show, and did lay to rest some of the conspiracy theories, but mostly I struggled to stay awake. What did catch my attention was Jim Lehrer's statement that the assassination "changed history forever."
Thing about that statement for a minute and marvel at its incoherence. An ordinary person would say that the assassination changed the trajectory America was on as of November 22, 1963. But it didn't change what happened before November 22, 1963 which was actual history. Moroever, at the moment the assassination happened, what was left was the future, not "future history."
It was with Lehrer's nonsensical words ringing in my mind that I read Daniel Greenfield's "The Left Side of History," which explains the Obama's leftist habit of seeing history, not as a look back to the past, but as a forcibly created future:
"As frustrating as HealthCare.gov may be sometimes," Obama told ObamaCare navigators and volunteers. "We're on the right side of history."
It wasn't the first time that Obama had invoked the right side of history to rally the troops. During the Arab Spring, as Mubarak resigned on his orders, he said, "History will end up recording that at every juncture in the situation in Egypt, that we were on the right side of history."
It's hard to be on the right side of history at every juncture. But Obama believed that he had achieved the feat by backing Mubarak, then backing his overthrow and then backing the Muslim Brotherhood.
Read the rest here, and see if you can get a handle on the way the Left views the future as the pre-written past.
UPDATE: Like me, Joseph Epstein doesn't get the "Kennedy wallow" either. It's especially silly when one considers that the Left is fetishizing a tax-cutting, communist-hating, Catholic-worshipping, and black-disliking president. And thinking about the facts versus the fantasy, I guess we're just getting another insight into the Left's idea of reality versus those actual stubborn facts.

Audi has chosen the three driver teams that will race the 24 Hours of Le Mans this June. They will be driving the excellent and proven R15 TDI, which is just…great.
The team driving car 1 will be Dindo Capello (Italy), Tom Kristensen (Denmark) and Allan McNish (Scotland) pictured above, which is the same team that won the 12-hour race at Sebring.
Car 2 will be driven by Lucas Luhr, Mike Rockenfeller and Marco Werner (pictured above,) all Germans, who also already ran at Sebring.
Finally, Car 3 will be driven by the German Timo Bernhard and the two French Romain Dumas and Alexandre Prémat, pictured above.
Timo and Romain are both new to the team, and have thoroughly familiarized themselves with the R15 TDI, which has undergone some changes since Sebring. Due to regulations, Audi had to increase the weight of the R15 TDI by 66 lbs, and added an aerodynamics package which better suits the high speed Le Mans track.
Individual driver pictures are below.
For Audi Sport Team Joest, the 77th edition of the endurance classic will start at 2:30 pm on Monday, June 8, with scrutineering in downtown Le Mans. On Wednesday night, a 6-hour free practice session is on the agenda. Qualifying will be held on Thursday night from 7 pm to 9 pm and 10 pm to 12 pm, the race will start at 3 pm on Saturday.
If Audi wins this year, it will be their ninth overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, tying Ferrari as best contenders. Good luck Audi!

Sometimes we think of Spanglish as a modern invention – something that the younger generation has created as the Latino population grows in the United States and American culture becomes increasingly popular in Latin America. The truth is, Spanglish has been around a long time. The term, "Spanglish" was first coined by a Puerto Rican linguist named Salvador Tió in the late 1940s. Tió also came up with the word "inglañol" – which is not nearly as popular, (my guess is because it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue the same way.)
While the term "Spanglish" first started being used in the late 1940's, its roots go much further back to the 1800's, The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, and the 100,000 Mexicans left on the new U.S. side of the border – Mexicans who later became known as "Chicanos."
Honestly, while I suspected the origins of Spanglish to be something similar to what I found, I wasn't prompted to research it until recently. Watching I Love Lucy with my little boy before he goes to school is one of my favorite parts of the day. An episode called "Ricky Minds the Baby" aired one morning and in this episode, Ricky tells the story of "Caperucita Roja" (Little Red Riding Hood), to Little Ricky – and he tells it entirely in very charming and amusing Spanglish.

Re: AMD FX 8350 or Intel i7
The AMD FX-8350 is a very capable processor and does pretty good at video encoding - http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2055/10/
I see Newegg has the FX-8350 for $210, so if you can get it for $180 and it fits the budget then give it a shot.

Main page> English> About the Programme
European Funds sites
On 2 October 2007, the Commissioner for Regional Policy Danuta Hübner signed the decision of the European Commission accepting the Innovative Economy Programme to be implemented. On 30 October 2007, the Council of Ministers passed the ordinance on approving the Innovative Economy Programme.The Programme Innovative Economy is one of six national programmes under National Strategic Reference Framework, which are co-financed from EU resources. This programme is directed mostly to all entrepreneurs who want to implement innovative projects connected with research and development, modern technologies, investments of high importance for the economy or implementation and use of information and communication technologies.In 2007-2013, within the framework of the Programme, entrepreneurs, business support institutions, research and scientific entities and institutions of public administration will be granted support exceeding EUR 10,18 billion for implementation of different kinds of projects aiming at the improvement of innovativeness of the Polish economy and Polish enterprises. This amount consists of EUR 8.65 billion from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and EUR 1.53 billion from the State budget.The Programme aims at supporting innovativeness in its broad sense. This aid comprises both direct support for entrepreneurs, business support institutions and scientific entities providing entrepreneurs with high quality services, and systemic support, ensuring development of institutional environment of innovative enterprises.Under the Programme, the supported activities will be those within the scope of product, process, marketing and organizational innovativeness and which directly or indirectly contribute to establishing and development of innovative enterprises.Support under the Programme will be granted irrespectively of sector or branch it relates to (taking into account limitation caused by the scope of interventions of ERDF and regulations concerning public aid). Support of the Programme will not apply to innovativeness at the local or regional level. This kind of innovativeness will be promoted and supported within Regional Operational Programmes and Operational Programme Development of Eastern Poland. Projects which are innovative at least at the national or international level will be granted support within the Programme.Objectives of the ProgrammeThe overall objective of the Programme Innovative Economy 2007-2013 is the development of Polish economy based on innovative enterprises. This objective will be achieved through implementation of the following specific objectives:
The overall objective of the Programme meets the goals set by the fundamental medium-term strategic document of the European Union – the Lisbon Strategy which was renewed in 2005. The main principles of the Lisbon Strategy comprise economic growth and employment, while fully complying with the objectives of sustainable development and Community Strategic Guidelines.These objectives are implemented under the Programme through designation of 90% of the financial allocation to measures in the following areas: research and development (R&D), innovations, information and communication technologies. Therefore, the Programme Innovative Economy is compliant with the implementation of Lisbon Strategy to the greatest extent.It should be emphasised that the Programme is not a continuation of the Sectoral Operational Programme Improvement of the Competitiveness of Enterprises, 2004-2006 (SOP ICE). Entrepreneurs wanting to implement investments of characteristics similar to those implemented within Measure 2.3 of SOP ICE Improvement of competitiveness of SMEs through investments, which was very popular, may obtain support within one of 16 ROPs, operating in their voivodeship. A complement of measures directly intended for entrepreneurs will be systemic support for networks of business support institutions and innovative business institutions (which means technology parks, technology incubators, Centres of Advanced Technology).
Funds within the Programme were divided into so-called priority axes or priorities which will allow to achieve the overall objective and specific objectives of the Programme. Under the Programme, nine priorities were defined, including 8 content-related ones and the Technical assistance priority.The detailed division of measures falling within particular priorities are available in the measures section .
Authorities implementing the ProgrammeManaging Authority (MA) for the Programme is the Ministry of Development (MD). Apart from MA, there are also bodies intermediating in the Programme implementation – so-called Intermediate Bodies:
These bodies will be responsible for implementation of particular priorities of the Programme, cooperating within this scope with Implementing Authorities (2nd level Intermediate Bodies).
This website is co-financed by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund and the Cohesion Fund under the Technical Assistance Programme.

Casey Kasem, Dead at 82
Casey Kasem, one of the most recognizable voices in radio who hosted "American Top 40" for four decades, died Sunday morning. He was 82.
His daughter Kerri revealed the news in a Facebook post:
Early this Father's Day morning, our dad Casey Kasem passed away surrounded by family and friends. Even though we know he is in a better place and no longer suffering, we are heartbroken. Thank you for all your love, support and prayers. The world will miss Casey Kasem, an incredible talent and humanitarian; we will miss our Dad.
With love, Kerri, Mike and Julie.
Kasem was being treated at St. Anthony Hospital in Washington since last week. His daughter Kerri was placed in charge of his medical care last Friday, after she won a legal battle with Kasem's second wife, Jean.
Kasem, born Kemal Amin Kasem in Detroit in 1932, got his start in radio after being drafted into the U.S. Army, where he worked on the Armed Forces Radio Korea Network. He began as host of American Top 40 in 1970, where he would combine long distance dedications, memories, and music knowledge with the top hits of the day, before ending with his signature sign-off: "Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars."
In addition to his radio work, Kasem voiced the Shaggy character in Scooby Doo for almost 40 years. He retired in 2009. Here he is doing his Shaggy voice at the Muscular Dystrophy Association telethon with Jerry Lewis in the 1980s:
Kasem himself suffered from Lewy body disease, a kind of dementia with symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease. He is survived by his wife, Jean Kasem, and four children.

Syria Conflict: Many Dead in Huge Damascus Bombing
A massive car bomb explosion in the Syrian capital, Damascus, has killed at least 53 people and injured another 200, reports say.
State media blamed "terrorists" for the blast, in a central district near the headquarters of Syria's ruling Baath Party.
TV pictures showed images of bodies, wrecked cars and shattered windows.
The violence comes as Russia and the Arab League say they want to broker direct government-opposition talks.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov described the war as "a road to nowhere".
The opposition Syrian National Coalition is holding a two-day meeting in Egypt to discuss a framework for a possible solution.
Some 70,000 people have died since the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad began in March 2011, the UN says.
'Upside down'
Police and witnesses said the blast was a car bomb. It went off in the central Mazraa neighbourhood, close to the Baath offices and Russian embassy.
State and pro-regime TV showed pictures of dead bodies and destroyed cars. State media said at least 53 were killed and another 200 injured in the blast. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based activist group, said 42 had died, most of them civilians.
Surrounding roads are reported to have been closed off to traffic and firefighters and medical staff were soon at the scene.
Witnesses told AP news agency the car had exploded at a security checkpoint between the Russian embassy and the Baath Party central headquarters.
"It was huge. Everything in the shop turned upside down,'' one local resident said. He said three of his employees were injured by flying glass that killed a young girl who was walking by when the blast hit.
"I pulled her inside the shop but she was almost gone. We couldn't save her. She was hit in the stomach and head."
State media said the explosion had struck near a school and clinic and that schoolchildren were among the casualties.
It seems to have been targeted at the Baath party offices, but also affected residential areas, says the BBC's Lina Sinjab in Damascus. No group has yet admitted to the attack.
Heavy fighting between government and rebel forces is continuing around the city, with the government carrying out air strikes in the suburbs.
Shortly after the car bomb, two mortars were fired at a military headquarters in Damascus, reports say.
And there have been two other explosions in the city, also at security checkpoints, according to the SOHR.
The UK-based activist group is one of the most prominent organisations documenting and reporting incidents and casualties in the Syrian conflict. The SOHR says its reports are impartial, though its information cannot be independently verified.
Opposition 'softens'
Mr Lavrov said the Kremlin and the Arab League wanted to establish direct contact between the Syrian government and the opposition.
Speaking in Moscow, where he hosted league officials and several Arab foreign ministers, the Russian foreign minister said that sitting down at a negotiating table was the only way to end the conflict without irreparable damage to Syria.
"Neither side can allow itself to rely on a military solution to the conflict, because it is a road to nowhere, a road to mutual destruction of the people," he said.
Mr Lavrov and Arab League General Secretary Nabil Elaraby said their priority was to create a transitional government to navigate a way out of the violence.
No conditions for the negotiations have been set, they said.
The proposal initially received a cool reception from the Syrian National Coalition (SNC), with senior member Abdelbaset Sieda insisting Mr Assad and his allies "must go first".
"After that we can discuss with others in the regime who didn't share in the killing of our people," he said.
But the news agency Reuters says it has seen a draft SNC communique being discussed in Cairo which demonstrates an apparent softening in the group's stance.
The document reasserts the group's position that Mr Assad's apparatus cannot be part of any political solution in Syria, but omits previous demands that Mr Assad's regime must go even before any talks, Reuters says.
But that may still prove unacceptable in Damascus, says the BBC's James Reynolds in Istanbul.

Just when you thought the Jersey Shore had been exiled from Miami.
One of the MTV reality TV shows main characters, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino has filed a lawsuit in federal court against his own dad, Frank, claiming that his pops is exploiting his fame, TMZ.com and E! News reported.
The lawsuit appears to be the culmination of an Internet feud between the Sorrentinos.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
Papa Sorrentino has launched his own website bashing his son for not being financially supportive of his dad. He's also begun calling himself "The Confrontation," which sounds like a cartoon super villain.
He calls himself "The Real Situation" on his website, TheConfrontationSite.com.
The lawsuit asks a judge to force Frank Sorrentino to stop using his son's likeness on the website, which has several profanity-laced tirades directed at The Situation.
The site also contains a photo gallery with pictures of the father and son during happier times.

Great Greek Salad
Greek salads are pizzeria standards. Garnished with black Greek olives and pepperoncini peppers, tossed in tangy vinaigrette and sprinkled with feta cheese, they offer a delicious combination of flavors and textures – crisp, cool, salty and tart.
This Great Greek Salad also includes those flavors and textures but the usual sprinkling of feta is omitted since I like to serve the salad accompanied by Baked Marinated Feta on Croutons (see recipe on this site). However, if you're not serving the baked feta, a sprinkling of feta cheese added to the salad would be delicious.
The salad is tossed with a tangy lemon-herb vinaigrette and is garnished with Greek olives along with diced tomatoes, cucumber and avocado.
Place the lettuce in a salad bowl. Add olives, avocados, diced tomatoes and cucumber. Pour some of the dressing over salad and toss to coat.
Makes 8 servings.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
Of late I have been getting down and dirty with the Database Development tools in Visual Studio 2010. You may know this feature set by one of the plethora of other names it has had over recent years such as:
For the rest of this post I'll stick with the colloquial name that most people seem to recognise – datadude.
Regardless of which moniker you prefer I'm hoping you recognise the feature set that I am referring to here which includes:
I plan to write a detailed blog post in the coming weeks talking about my overall experiences with datadude but in the meantime I'm writing this blog post to focus on how I have chosen to manage security; by which I mean:
Datadude has built-in support for managing all of this stuff as we can see from this screenshot:
Notice that we have created a user, a login for that user and a role into which we later want to add the user. They exist as explicit objects within our project which means that datadude "knows" about them and that has a number of advantages including:
That should be enough to justify using datadude to manage users and roles however I have come across a limitation that prohibits us from doing so; we do not deploy the same security model to each of our environments. The reasons for this are very familiar to you I'm sure, we have people that require different permissions on different environments (e.g. our developers will want to be able to issue DDL and UPDATE/INSERT/DELETE on our development environment but we definitely don't want them to have the same on production).
As far as I can discern datadude does not have a good solution for dealing with this situation. I have not found a way of conditionally deploying objects depending on which environment we are deploying to. Actually that is not altogether true, we could have a Visual Studio configuration for each environment and include/exclude objects as we choose but that doesn't play well with the build and deploy model of msbuild which requires that you build each one of those configurations; each of our builds takes about 10 minutes which, when multiplied by the number of environments, results in a total build time that takes too long for our continuous integration (CI) usage.
Hence we needed a better way to deploy our security model – we chose to use PostDeployment scripts. PostDeployment scripts do exactly what they say on the tin – they are scripts that get run after datadude has deployed the objects that it knows about. They get called (using SQLCMD syntax) from the Script.PostDeployment.sql file that exists in every datadude project:
My chosen approach is to have a script called SecurityAdditionsWrapper.sql that gets called from Script.PostDeployment.sql. SecurityAdditionsWrapper.sql checks a SQLCMD variable to determine which environment is being deployed to and then calls the appropriate SecurityAdditionsXXX.sql script that is responsible for deploying the security model for that environment (where XXX is the environment).
I then have 3 subfolders that contain all the individual CREATE USER, role membership and permissions scripts that get called from SecurityAdditionsXXX.sql as and when required.
The screenshot below shows the contents of Script.PostDeployment.sql & SecurityAdditionsWrapper.sql and also the files as they exist in Solution Explorer:
Some things to notice:
You may be wondering how we get a value into that $(DeployType) variable when using msbuild. Well, its pretty simple when you know how. First you need to include the variable in the sqlcmdvars file for your datadude project:
You then need to pass in the appropriate value to that variable at deploy-time. We are using VSDBCMD.exe to run our deployments and the syntax to pass in a value for a variable is /p:PropertyName=PropertyValue. We are calling VSDBCMD.exe from inside an msbuild script which therefore looks like this:
<Exec Command="..\Tools\VSDBCMD\vsdbcmd.exe /Action:Deploy /ConnectionString:'Data Source=$(DatabaseServer);Integrated Security=True;Pooling=False' /DeployToDatabase:+ /ManifestFile:.\MyDB.deploymanifest /p:DeployType="$(DeployType)" " />
$(DeployType) is of course also a property within our msbuild file, which I am drawing attention to in the bold section above.
In conclusion, I am not saying that this is the correct way to deploy a SQL Server security model using datadude, it just happens to be the method that I have chosen. I would really like to how people have solved this using datadude so if you have any anecdotes to share please put them in the comments.
Cranking all of those files out by hand is a laborious undertaking, especially if you have lots of users with lots of permissions. In our case we introduced datadude to be used with an existing system hence we already had all our security setup on existing servers but we had no good way of getting it into the structure that I explained above. Powershell and SQLCMD to the rescue!
I have produced a series of scripts that interrogate a named instance and produce all of the files that I explain above. Namely:
Creating the CREATE USER file and the file containing the permissions for each principle is quite involved. For that we need some nested loops that loop over (a) all the databases for which you want to scripts users and (b) all the principles in each database. It then dumps the appropriate files into the appropriate folders and then you have the simple task of adding them to your project and calling them from your Post Deployment script.
The files are stored in a zip folder on my OneDrive at http://1drv.ms/11tdPML
To run the Powershell script simply unzip all the files into the root folder of your solution and issue:
>GeneratePermissions.ps1 -SQLInstance instanceName -Environment XXX
>GeneratePermissions.ps1 -SQLInstance instanceName -Environment XXX
changing SQLInstance & XXX accordingly (the $Environment variable is simply a suffix that is added to the names of some of the generated files). The Powershell script contains more detailed notes within it in the comments section at the top.
Hope this helps!
Disclaimer: I'm giving this away for free and I won't be supporting it so use at your own peril (in other words, don't come here complaining that it doesn't work on your environment). On the other hand if you find a problem and are able to fix it – please let me know
UPDATE: I did actually find some problems with the scripts and have now uploaded a new set. I'm confident that they'll work this time.
UPDATE 2: I've updated the scripts again. They now create the SecurityAdditionsXXX.sql file as well as the individual CREATE USER & permissions files; SecurityAdditionsXXX.sql contains all of the calls to the relevant scripts for environment XXX.
SecurityAdditionsXXX.sql also issues all of the role membership statements as well. So just to clarify - you now no longer have a need to run the script that generates the role memberships - GeneratePermissions.ps1 takes care of everything.
UPDATE 3: Peter Schott has taken this, adapted it for hiw own needs, and sent it back to me so that I can share it here. His modified version of the scripts is at http://1drv.ms/1uimCKV and includes these changes (mainly to deal with roles):
1. Changed the Powershell script: * Added a section to handle role permissions. (really don't care for the way VS does it) * Tweaked the Database Principle section - for some reason, the variable in the PS script I extracted wasn't set properly so I just changed the names around * Added a bunch of lines of code to add to the Array. My Powershell's not too strong so wasn't sure about the best way to add new DBs/Projects to the DB Array. I ended up doing a bunch of sets. I know it's not ideal, but I just wanted to get it done one time. * Tweaked the section that creates the Users. If one of those logins doesn't exist, the grant permissions script would stop. Now I check to make sure that the login exists before the script runs. I sometimes get empty (Login = []) sections. No ideas on that yet. I fix or delete that file as appropriate.2. Added a "GetDatabaseRoleList.sql" file. Gets the roles for the DB so we can run it through the Permissions file3. Permissions SQL file. I tweaked this with a query that UNIONs the object permissions with the Schema permissions. I didn't break it down further like you did, but our permissions are so messed up right now that it doesn't matter much to me. (we have far too many permissions granted to individual users instead of roles because the prior DBA didn't understand the point of DB Roles for permissions and even then far too many permissions because we had a job that nightly granted all permissions on all objects to certain usernames :-P )
And one more change that needs to be made which Peter informed me of later:
Ended up changing the GeneratePermissions.ps1 file to change all of the Out-File to "Out-File -width 500 ".After doing that, the permissions weren't truncated at 80 characters. Also tweaked the Invoke-SQLCmd functions to use -MaxCharLength 500 so the output line would be long enough. That may have been overkill or there may be a better way to handle, but some of my permission lines were definitely longer than the allowed line lengths.

Awesome. I'm going to need to give this a try. Security has definitely been a problem for us and trying to manipulate the internal security structure is painful at best.
nice one. Let me know how it goes for you.
I seem to remember I once ran into an issue when doing :r within a BEGIN/END block: wouldn't work if the included sql script contained GO statements
Jamie - quick note on the users. I ended up adding an extra layer of security to those by also checking to see if the login existed in master.dbo.syslogins. If not, it bypassed creating the user. Adding an ":on error ignore" to the SecurityAdditionsWrapper file and letting it run may throw an error on role memberships or similar grants, but shouldn't break the script at that point. Otherwise, if you have one missing login, the rest of the permissions fail (or did for me).
I also have a script that generates the permissions not only for objects, but also for schemas. It's a little large to post here, though.
Over the past eighteen months I have worked on four separate projects for customers that wanted to make
Wanted to add a little bit to this, I just modified my "Generate sp_addrolemember statements.sql" file to check for existence before granting permissions. I ran into a handful of scenarios where a user wasn't there or had been removed. That threw errors in SSDT, which at this time doesn't support the "ON ERROR IGNORE" option for sqlcmd.
New select statement is:
SELECT 'IF EXISTS (select * from sys.database_principals where name = ''' + mp.name + ''')
EXEC sp_addrolemember N''' + rp.name + ''', N''' + mp.name + ''';' AS [Stmt]
FROM sys.database_role_members rm
INNER JOIN sys.database_principals rp
ON rm.role_principal_id = rp.principal_id
INNER JOIN sys.database_principals mp
ON rm.member_principal_id = mp.principal_id
WHERE mp.name NOT IN ('dbo')
ORDER BY rp.name
The other scripts I was using already addressed existence of logins prior to creation. This just adds another check before attempting to grant role membership.
Hi Jamie, great post!
I am looking to do the same thing now in my current project.
Question however, it looks like that your example is using one datadude project. I have a solution that contains 3 database projects. Where would you suggest that I put users/logins/roles as on our database server, all three databases use all of these objects? Currently I have the post deployment script in one of the database projects but it feels odd as the deployment would apply to the other 2 projects.
Does that make sense? Any ideas?
Also Jamie, a follow on from my previous question...where are your login file located in the post deployment scripts? I only see folders for RoleMemberships, Users and Permissions sets.
Hi wattyjnr, thanks for the comments.
Question. Do your three database projects deploy to 3 seperate databases? I will assume so for the purposes of this answer.
If you have server-scoped objects that pertain to all three databases then you might want to consider breaking them out into a fourth project that exists solely for the purpose of deploying server level objects. Users (because they are database-level objects) and database roles can live in the appropriate project and you can use database references to resolve logins that are named in the "server" project (although if you're using post-deployment scripts you won't need database references).
"where are your login file located in the post deployment scripts?"
Its a long time since I wrote this blog post but i suspect they were in a dedicated project for server-level objects (exactly as I propose immediately above)
Hope that helps
Hi Jamie!
Sorry I should have mentioned in my earlier post that I am using SSDT, where it is probable that you build this solution using one of the previous incarnations of this tool. So in this instance, I have 3 separate database and currently have my server level objects within one of these databases being run as part of a post deployment script file, which seems a bit odd as they pertain to them all.
In light of this, do you still think I should create a separate SSDT project for solely handling these logins or just keep them in one of the projects.
As always, thanks for your great work and sharing of your knowledge in this area.
Hi Leon,
Based on what you've said here it might make sense to create them in a dedicated project. I'm a fan of encapsulation and encapsulating server level objects into a dedicated dacpac makes a lot of sense in my head.
Your mileage may of course vary.
We use a similar approach but we would like to move away from it, ideally being able to manage at the object level rather than post-deployment scripts.
The problem with post-deployment scripts is that you lose the compare functionality.
If you could host the powershell script somewhere like github that'd be great. Our org doesn't allow access to one drive. Plus, you know, it's the future...

The following is a guest blog post by Marcus LaFountain.
LaFountain has worked in IT for the last 10 years as a PC Technician, Help Desk Analyst, and System Administrator. He is currently a Healthcare IT Consultant specializing in Cerner and HIM implementations.
A recent Ovum study showed that almost 60% of employees bring some type of mobile device into the workplace. There are a few names for this, Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), Bring Your Own PC (BYOPC), Bring Your Own Phone (BYOP), User Introduces Unsecure Device onto My Network and Then Loses My Secure Data (UIUDOMNTLMSD). Alright, so I made that last one up, but that is how most IT Managers feel when the discussion is started about BYOD. An end user bringing a device to work is both a gift and a curse for any sized company. We see an increase in productivity but also the increased threat of data being lost or stolen. Having a strong Mobile Device Management (MDM) strategy can help companies reap the benefits of BYOD while limiting the consequences.
Let's start by going over some numbers. By 2014, the number of mobile devices (mostly mobile phones) in the workplace is expected to reach 350 million globally. A remarkable 57% of full time employees are already using mobile devices for work related tasks. Out of that 57%, about half is unmonitored, unmanaged BYOD activity. Another study shows that in 2011, 78% of companies did NOT have a BYOD policy and only about 20% of employees actually sign a BYOD policy.
There are many reasons to justify a BYOD policy:
Productivity: An employee who uses their personal device for both work and play is on average likely to work an extra 240 hours per year than those who do not. They can answer emails on the go, answer phone calls while on the road (using a hands-free device of course!) and receive that last minute meeting update. . Most employees won't want to bring a work laptop home just to check emails after dinner or during downtime at home. Letting them receive push emails may empower them to write a quick mail back to a client in a different time zone rather than having to wait until the morning.
Cost: There is also a cost justification. Not having to provide every employee with a business only device can save not only the cost of the device but the monthly service plan that goes along with it. The number of devices can be reduced as well. A mobile phone is a cheaper and sometimes more convenient alternative than a laptop with a 4G cell card. Employees can still stay connected when not physically at their desk.
User Experience: Tech Savvy employees tend to have strong preferences when it comes to the technology they choose to use. Forcing an Android user to use a BlackBerry device may not be an ideal situation. Giving employees the ability to choose their mobile operating system, screen size and other technical specs may make them more likely to use the device rather than it sitting in a desk drawer unused.
However, it isn't all sunshine and rainbows in the world of BYOD. As the use of mobile devices increase in the work place, so do the number of malicious attacks. According to the Ponemon Institute, 6 out of 10 security breaches were traced back to mobile devices. Apple and Google are constantly removing mobile malware from their app stores. And as always, attackers are trying to pick the low hanging fruit of the mobile community first. Businesses must have policies and security measures in place to protect their data. In 2009, the US Government enacted the Health Information Technology for Clinical Health Act (HITECH) that requires healthcare companies to notify patients if they have had their health records compromised. Similar acts were also put in place in the financial industry.
Constructing a comprehensive Mobile Device Management (MDM) policy is imperative when users are allowed to bring and use their own devices. As with many policies, the contents may vary greatly by company. However, almost every company from small businesses to enterprises will need to focus on security and support.
Security: A lost or stolen device is the most common type of security breach. A company must have measures in place to combat this. While an entire article can be written about mobile security, I will touch on some common features. Both Android and Apple offer AES 256 – Bit encryption as a standard on their devices. Lock screens, passwords and certificates all play a role in device management as well. Microsoft Active Sync and other software also allow administrators to perform a remote wipe of a compromised device. This is a necessary requirement when employees have company data on their mobile phones. Samsung has developed an Enterprise suite called SAFE that allows the user to partition company data with personal data. It also gives administrators the ability to perform a complete or selective wipe, tracking of the device and local password enforcement. Apple and other mobile providers are starting to or already have incorporated these features as well. If your company is using application virtualization, you may need to define new rules for allowing mobile devices. Users will also need a way to get a hold of someone 24/7 in the event of a lost or stolen device.
Support: This may be a slippery slope for some. Most IT policies only allow for support of company devices. So who supports a personal device that is used for business? Depending on the size of your company, you may want to assign a dedicated resource from your IT Security team to manage your MDM policy. If you are an enterprise, you may need a small team to manage different aspects of the policy. Your Help Desk will need training on the various mobile operating systems and communication will need to be sent out to end users on how to stay on top of security. Documentation will need to be created on how to setup email, VPNs and passwords. Do you need to setup an approved device list or will you allow any manufacturer or mobile OS on the network? A pilot group (usually IT) will need to be put in place to test your new systems and policies as well. Audits should also be enabled to check for OS updates, application updates and security updates.
In a growing mobile market and the on demand nature of business today, IT Management will need to be one step ahead of its users by developing a MDM policy. When developing an MDM strategy, you must take into account your business needs as well as infrastructure requirements. Like any new implementation it is ideal to begin testing your technology and policies with a small subset of users and conducting a review process before rolling out corporate wide. Doing so may limit mistakes while in a beta phase instead of having them on a mass scale. Focusing on security and support will allow for a comprehensive strategy that will allow employees to operate efficiently and productively but most importantly safely.
