I was on the road the last couple of weeks (see below) and when I got home this Chinese translation of Chief Culture Officer was waiting for me. I am a little concerned that there is now a question mark in the title and until someone tells me otherwise, I will assume that this is meant to signify the interrogative lilt that many Canadians add to simple declarative statements.

A former student is searching for what to do next. With her summer...or her life. She's flexible.
Here is the reply I sent her this morning:
Dear Jennifer (not her real name):
Thanks for your note. Great to hear your voice again.
It feels to me that you are more or less uniquely positioned to do an ethnographic walk-about.
You have a great eye, a great voice, you are not wedded to any particular ideology or cultural camp, you have a breadth of experience, you are mobile in almost every sense of the term.
It feels to me like everyone is burrowing, sticking to what and who they know. There is stuff happening "out there," but people are so shocked by the new that they can't manage the novelty. So they are not mobile.
I would get someone to give you a mandate and just go looking. My hero her is Frances FitzGerald's 1986. Cities on a Hill, A Journey Through Contemporary American Cultures. Simon and Schuster. She doesn't make the mistake that hobbles a good deal of American journalism and scholarship, the mistake that supposes that only on the margin are we going to find something new and interesting. She casts the net wide. And that's especially important now, because cultural innovation is taking place everywhere. The avant-garde no longer owns the ingenuity or courage necessary to reimagine the world.
Go have a look! Most people are not looking. And most of those who are, are looking through lens so particular that they ALWAYS find what they are looking for, and miss what is really going on. All we know for certain is that Americans are as usual reinvented themselves as a furious pitch and pace. We don't have a clear idea of who and what they are becoming. And that's probably a bad thing.
Good luck and keep me posted.
Best, Grant

April 29: CCO mentors: Nick Shore
I have a Culturematic talk at MTV last week and had a chance to catch up with Nick Shore there. I worked with Nick some years ago and he struck me then as being almost prescient when it comes to reading culture.
So, my advice, if and when you see a job on offer at MTV, have at it. Here are more details on Nick's career.
This suggests an answer to the question I am so often asked: where can I get an education that prepares me for becoming a CCO. My advice has always been "well, there really isn't a program..." The more sensible answer is work for someone who is acting as a CCO. Nick is a perfect case in point.
I have a tumblr page that identifies other people. You can find it here.

This is John Kearon and me talking about what I am calling the Kauffman continuum and about Culturematics. (I believe the former is a great and useful device for people who are making cultural content. I rolled it out at the Banff Media event.) And because it's John Kearon, the learning curve is straight down hill. It's fun to hear how quickly he absorbs things. It's a radio interview here.

I just finished teaching the course called "Time Machine" at MIT. We are many hours closer to a working model of a machine that can turn faint signals in our culture into early warning of changes to come.
The class fixed on Mixology as the trend it wanted to use for demo purposes, so that's what we did. We tracked it from the fateful conversation in the Rainbow between Joe Baum and Dale DeGroff when the former suggested the latter might want to investigate traditional cocktails through to the conviction as voiced by one expert respondent that the trend was now on its death bed. Whew. 0 to 60 in 30 years.
What I need now is really robust data and I think I have a couple of sources. Watch this space!

I did an interview with NPR yesterday and the Boston Globe. Both where on the theme of predicting the future. This is an aspect of the CCO responsibilities we should be thinking about more. I will give you links when these are forthcoming.

This is big news. Yesterday, I confirmed that I will be teaching a credit course in the January term at MIT. I am calling the course "Time Machine" and the idea is to build a machine for predicting the future. This is the "big board" talked about in Chief Culture Officer. I am looking into some way to making it possible for people living outside Cambridge to audit the course. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks, Grant
Nov. 12
Grant participates in the Futures of Entertainment at MIT. My comments opened Saturday morning. It was a great event as FoE always is. You can find the video of my remarks by clicking here. Now that I think of it, it's a very CCO kind of talk. But at the time, I was merely wrestling with the ideas in play at this fantastically rich event.
Nov. 8
Grant talks to a large Pharmaceutical corporation in the mid-west about the importance of anthropology, ethnology, and culture.
Nov. 6.
Grant talks to a professional organization in Atlanta about the importance of culture. Actually, what I did was point out how a very particular cultural development might represent a paradigmatic shift or disruptive change for their field. I think they really like it.
Nov. 3.
This is pretty thrilling. Our own Rick Liebling has just been appointed the Creative Culturalist at Y&R. No, they didn't use the term CCO, but Rick is a precisely that. Indeed, he was one of the people I wrote up in Chief Culture Officer. For the Y&R press released, go here.

Grant gives a talk at the IIR Future Trend conference in Miami.
I talked about the big board, and the strategists and the planners were, I think, keenly interested.
From remarks made over drinks, I got the sense that the corporation is beginning to see the the world is increasingly hard to read and make ready for. Over the last couple of years, the corporation supposed that innovation was the magic bullet, the way to "keep up" with a turbulent culture. Now, the bloom is off this rose as the corporation learns that innovation is much harder than it looks.
Some strategists were saying that they felt a little as if they are in the hot seat. The corporation is saying, "oh, if we can't do this with innovation, how can we do it." And "who's job is this anyway?" And they are looking to strategists with new expectations. As in, "fix this for us!"
So the big board looks like one way to address the problem, a way to use culture as an opportunity for earlier notice.

Big board news
Yesterday, I did a thing on trends in the food world for a large consulting house and their client.
I mentioned the Big Board idea, and afterwards people pressed their business cards into my hand. They wanted to be kept in the loop on big board developments.
I know that versions of this thing are in the works in a couple of places. But nothing concrete so far. So frustrating.
July 7
Forgive the silence. It turned out a new idea insisted on being include in the manuscript for Culturematic and I have been working hard to accomodate it. Here's the blog account.
On other matters, I will be interviewing AG Lafley on stage at the IIR conference in Chicago next week. A little intimidating. This guy is royalty.
Since the last note, I've been talking at the Banff Media Festival and at Ryerson University in Toronto. I also had a great interview with Francois Gossieaux. Here's Francois' write up, with the interview attached.
Chief Culture Officer just appeared in Korean translation. Here's the cover.
June 5
I am finishing the new manuscript Culturematic today. It goes off to my editor Tim Sullivan. Hope he likes it.
We got a mention in the LA Times today in a review of X-Men here.
Saturday, I gave a talk to the American Association of University Presses.
In May, I talked at Baruch College and the Canadian Tourism Association.
Otherwise, it's been writing, writing, writing. It's going to be weird being done.
March 19
I am sitting in the Charlotte airport making my way back from giving a talk at the RioContent conference in Brazil on Thursday. The Portuguese translation of Chief Culture Officer made its first appearance there and I signed many, many copies. Brazil _likes_ CCO and i'm told the owner of the biggest indie ad agency there now calls himself a Chief Culture Officer. Thanks to the Alchemists for the invitation and to Petro Bras for sponsoring the book launch.
March 11
From an email I got today from Los Angeles:
It hit me the other day that what i need to be is a CCO. please take no offense, but i had not heard of you or the book - but now I see that i am not alone....i will be buying it for my ipad and giving it a read!
March 9

February 25
My apologies. I have had my head down working on the new book. I have 40,000 words written and the manuscript has to be in June 1.
I did a post on the Pomplamoose ad for Hyundai. This lead to an interview with Jack Conte on line, and more recently a small part in a very interesting article about Pomplamoose in the SF Weekly by Ian Port here.
I am off to Brazil soon to sing the praises of Chief Culture Officer. Watch this space for photos!
Oh, and yesterday, I posted this post on the Harvard Business Review blog called The Conversation. See the post here.
January 14:
Good news on the translation front. CCO is now destined for translation into Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Complex), Spanish, Korean and Portuguese.
Hope to have news soon on the new book. The contract is being hammered out as I write.
The blog has been hopping. My post on the Hyundai - Pomplamoose ad that ran over the holidays was widely read. I think here are 95 comments now in place. I am doing an Ustream conversation with Jack Conte, half of the Pomplamoose. That's today at 2:00 Eastern seaboard.
December 14:
Last week I was in Atlanta for The Coca-Cola Company and in Rochester for Coburn Ventures. Good projects both, demonstrating that culture matters both to the CSD world and the capital markets.
A ton of new work is lining up for the new year. I was hoping to use the holidays as an opportunity to work on the new book. Still, after the horrible economy of the last year, I am grateful to be busy.
Hope everyone has happy holidays and a good break!
Best, Grant
November 18:
I recently posted an interview with Cheryl Swanson, one of my heroes in the CCO community. You can find it here here
November 5:
The trip to London went well. A big spirits brand had me talk to their team of planners. And the London agency Truth had me for a very lively chat.
We got a mention in the Wall Street Journal today. Thanks to Virginia Postrel for the mentioning my review of The Big Bang Theory in the Harvard Business Review Conversations Blog. Here is Virginia's article.
Also on Saturday I had a look in on the SVA (School of Visual Arts) masters on branding created by Debbie Millman. This has big potential for those interested in a degree in culture. While I was there I met Jessie McGuire who has a pretty interesting business card.
Older note:
We got a very nice mention from Mark Drapeau. Mark is the Director of U.S. Public Sector Social Engagement at Microsoft, and the editor of SECTOR: PUBLIC.
Coming into my new role at Microsoft, I took on the task of reading more widely about business, communications, and other topics. I was very influenced by the new book Chief Culture Officer, written by Grant McCracken of MIT. It's not about pop culture, and not about "cool hunting," but rather about having a broad awareness of slow-paced cultural evolutions that can affect companies, and how to monitor them and incorporate them into planning.
Thank you, Mark.
Had some very good discussion last week with a network member about how to be a CCO in a very large NGO (non-governmental organization). This could be spectacular. Will keep you posted if and when I can speak freely.
There are also plans a foot to make the CCO proposition a more vivid presence in the Human Relations, Human Capital world. Should be able to talk about that soon.
I am off to London to give two CCO talks at the end of the month. Both of them are corporate events and closed to the public.
Its appears certain that the next boot camp will be in Portland this winter. Watch this space.

Ha, ha, it's being reported that Darrelle Revis is speechless by the trade rumor.
The guy has held out as a rookie, & when he had 2 F*CKING years left on his contract!
He's speechless.......whatever!
Greedy bastard that learned everything from his greedy uncle. Don't let the door hit u in the Azz if we can get the right compensation for Mevis.
I guess he figured Idzik would be a pushover just like Tanny.
First he heard of it.
When any player that a team negotiates with in good intentions says, no home town discount, trade them!
We have people here who want to sign Landry?
The dude is a mercenary & you only sign these guys when your close to winning a Superbowl. The minute Landry said " no hometown discount "
Bye, bye dude.
We need to build through the draft.
I'm excited about cheering for new young guys that will "play like a Jet", and be happy to be NY Jet football players.
Go Jets!
Because "its just business" is Revis and his agents line.
Its kind of like when Revis plays games and sounds like he may or may not holdout or report to camp on time. I am sure the Jets were "speechless" then as well.
Publicity reasons. Hes not stupid. Hes known for months its a possibility.
Him saying he feels bad for the fans is his way of him not being thought of as the bad guy when he leaves. Watch how many times he mentions he wants to finish his career here over the next 2 months.
Yeah, grrrr, I hate our best player, too! What a jerk!
I do not think he is going to demand on the mkt what all thinks he will, I do not see any team giving him the world unproven after the injury and i think he thinks he may now be screwed. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.
why trade him your not going to get top value for him now anyway
Revis is awesome and deserves every penny. He should be a Jet for life and treated with respect from the fans and owner. Tanny should've locked him up with a long-term deal two years ago!!
If the jets trade him away for draft picks, they'll just waste them on more sh*tty picks.
I love Revis to death and I hope that the front office does not trade him. However if Revis is to get his elite player money, he's gotta give me more bang for my buck than just doing his job the best of any cornerback around. A price tag like that comes with a leadership mandate. He would have to invoke, inspire, lead, be vocal and accountable for this franchise like a Ray Lewis, a Peyton Manning or even Gisele's boy toy. Its not enough for him to isolate himself, thinking its enough that we Jets fans get to see an elite defensive player on a weekly basis. No, going forward he has to share his will with the entire team, motivate them to a higher level. Lewis isn't half the player he was, but like him or not his presence changes the dynamic of that team. Its like going into battle with William Wallace, you feel invincible. Up to this point, Revis has been content to just do his thing. To get that next big check out of Woody's wallet, I think he must evolve into the true leader he is capable of being, but has yet to accept.

Hey guys, am new on here so hello to you all!
I have a question in regards to the new range of Cold Steel folders, specifically the Recon 1 Mini! I am In need of a good strong reliable folder and initially was going with the standard version clip point plain edge, in the new Carpenter XHP steel, that was until I realised it's almost the length of a 12" ruler and somewhat overkill for my needs, besides my trusty Esee 5 is fine in doing any heavy work that I may require. That said, I have now decided the Recon 1 Mini WILL be my next purchase and I need help deciding whether or not to wait for the newer steel version to arrive in plenty full quantities and pay the additional cost, or as I admit as I won't be putting it to any extreme use, would aus8 being easy to sharpen and the cost difference be sufficient!? I am new to good quality knives and would very much appreciate your opinions etc. I have never used an Aus8 blade and have heard great things, but I have also heard how easily the Tuff-Ex coating comes away also! I don't mind waiting and paying extra in the long term if it means both edge retention and corrosion resistance is better as again the DLC coating is from what I gather, much tougher. Again you thoughts and opinions on this would be very much appreciated!

If you create a new MVC 6 project from the default starter template, it will contain the following code in the Startup class, under ConfigureServices method:
// Uncomment the following line to add Web API servcies which makes it easier to port Web API 2 controllers. // You need to add Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.WebApiCompatShim package to project.json // services.AddWebApiConventions();
This pretty much explains it all – the Compatibility Shim is included in an external package, Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.WebApiCompatShim and by default is switched off for new MVC projects. Once added and enabled, you can also have a look at the UseMvc method, under Configure. This is where central Web API routes can be defined:
app.UseMvc(routes => { routes.MapRoute( name: "default", template: "{controller}/{action}/{id?}", defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" }); // Uncomment the following line to add a route for porting Web API 2 controllers. // routes.MapWebApiRoute("DefaultApi", "api/{controller}/{id?}"); });
Since the base class for Web API controllers was not Controller but ApiController, the shim introduces a type of the same name into MVC 6.
While it is obviously not 100% identical to the ApiController from Web API, it contains the majority of public proeprties and methods that you might have gotten used to – the Request property, the User property or a bunch of IHttpActionResult helpers.
The shim introduces the ability to work with HttpResponseMessage in MVC 6 projects. How is this achieved? First of all, the Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client package is referenced, and that brings in the familiar types – HttpResponseMessage and HttpRequestMessage.
On top of that, an extra formatter is injected into your application – HttpResponseMessageOutputFormatter. This allows you to return HttpResponseMessage from your actions, just like you were used to doing in Web API projects!
How does it work under the hood? Remember, in Web API, returning an instance of HttpResponseMessage bypassed content negotiation and simply forwarded the instance all the way to the hosting layer, which was responsible to convert it to a response that was relevant for a given host.
In the case of MVC 6, the new formatter will grab your HttpResponseMessage and copy its headers and contents onto the Microsoft.AspNet.Http.HttpResponse which is the new abstraction for HTTP response in ASP.NET 5.
As a result such type of an action as the one shown below, is possible in MVC 6, and as a consequence it should be much simpler to migrate your Web API 2 projects.
public HttpResponseMessage Post(){ return new HttpResponseMessage(HttpSattusCode.NoContent);}
In Web API it was possible to bind HttpRequestMessage in your actions. For example this was easily doable:
[Route("test/{id:int}")] public string Get(int id, HttpRequestMessage req) { return id + " " + req.RequestUri; } [Route("testA")] public async Task<TestItem> Post(HttpRequestMessage req) { return await req.Content.ReadAsAsync<TestItem>(); }
The shim introduces an HttpRequestMessageModelBinder which allows the same thing to be done under MVC 6. As a result, if you relied on HttpRequestMessage binding in Web API, your code will migrate to MVC 6 fine.
How does it work? The shim will use an intermediary type, HttpRequestMessageFeature, to create an instance of HttpRequestMessage from the ASP.NET 5 HttpContext.
Since it was very common in the Web API world to use HttpResponseMessage as an action return type, there was a need for a mechanism that allowed easy creation of its instances. This was typically achieved by using the extension methods on the HttpRequestMessage, as they would perform content negotiation for you.
If you use/used the CreateErrorResponse method mentioned above, you will end up relying on the HttpError class which is another ghost of the Web API past rejuvenated by the compatibility shim.
HttpError was traditionally used by Web API to serve up error information to the client in a (kind of) standardized way. It contained properties such as ModelState, MessageDetail or StackTrace.
It was used by not just the CreateErrorResponse extension method but also by a bunch of IHttpActionResults – InvalidModelStateResult, ExceptionResult and BadRequestErrorMessageResult. As a result, HttpError is back to facilitate all of these types.

ASP.NET is an open-source server-side Web application framework designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages. It was developed by Microsoft to allow programmers to build dynamic web sites, web applications and web services. ASP.NET MVC gives you a powerful, patterns-based way to build dynamic websites that enables a clean separation of concerns and that gives you full control over markup. Remote validation is used to make server calls to validate data without posting the entire form to the server when server side validation is preferable to client side. It's all done set up model and controller which is pretty neat.
To implement remote validation in an application we have two scenarios, one is without an additional parameter and the other is with an additional parameter. First we create an example without an additional parameter. In this example we check whether a username exists or not. If the username exists then that means the input user name is not valid. We create a view model class "UserViewModel"Â under the Models folder and that code is:
using System.Web.Mvc; namespace RemoteValidation.Models { public class UserViewModel { public string UserName { get; set; } public string Email { get; set; } } }
Now we create a static data source, in other words we create a static list of UserViewModel in which we could check whether a username exists or not. You can also use the database rather than a static list. The following code snippet is for StaticData.
using RemoteValidation.Models; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace RemoteValidation.Code { public static class StaticData { public static List < UserViewModel > UserList { get { return new List < UserViewModel > { new UserViewModel { UserName = "User1", Email = "firstname.lastname@example.com" }, new UserViewModel { UserName = "User2", Email = "firstname.lastname@example.com" } } } } } }
Now we create a controller "ValidationController"Â in which we create an action method to check whether a user name exists or not and return a result as a JSON format. If the username exists then it returns false so that the validation is implemented on the input field. The following code snippet shows ValidationController under the Controllers folder.
using RemoteValidation.Code; using System.Linq; using System.Web.Mvc; namespace RemoteValidation.Controllers { public class ValidationController: Controller { [HttpGet] public JsonResult IsUserNameExist(string userName) { bool isExist = StaticData.UserList.Where(u = > u.UserName.ToLowerInvariant().Equals(userName.ToLower())).FirstOrDefault() != null; return Json(!isExist, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); } } }
Now we add remote validation on the UserName of the UserViewModel property as in the following code snippet.
using System.Web.Mvc; namespace RemoteValidation.Models { public class UserViewModel { [Remote("IsUserNameExist", "Validation", ErrorMessage = "User name already exist")] public string UserName { get; set; } public string Email { get; set; } } }
As in the preceding code snippet, the IsUserNameExist is a method of ValidationController that is called on the blur of an input field using a GET request. Now we create UserController under the Controllers folder to render a view on the UI.
using RemoteValidation.Models; using System.Web.Mvc; namespace RemoteValidation.Controllers { public class UserController: Controller { [HttpGet] public ActionResult AddUser() { UserViewModel model = new UserViewModel(); return View(model); } } }
Now we add jquery.validate.js and jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js to the project and create a bundle as in the following code snippet.
using System.Web.Optimization; namespace RemoteValidation.App_Start { public class BundleConfig { public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles) { bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/css").Include( "~/Content/css/bootstrap.css", "~/Content/css/font-awesome.css", "~/Content/css/site.css")); bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include( "~/Scripts/jquery-{version}.js")); bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryval").Include( "~/Scripts/jquery.validate*")); } } }
Thereafter we add the following keys in the web.config file.
Thereafter we create a view for the AddUser action method. The following code snippet is for the AddUser view.
@model RemoteValidation.Models.UserViewModel

 Add User

 @using (Html.BeginForm()) {

 @Html.LabelFor(model => model.UserName, new { @class = "col-lg-2 control-label" })
 @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.UserName, new { @class = "form-control" }) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.UserName)

 @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Email, new { @class = "col-lg-2 control-label" })
 @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Email, new { @class = "form-control" }) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Email)

 < button class = "btn btn-success" id = "btnSubmit" type = "submit" > Submit < /button>

 }

 @section scripts { @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryval") }
Let's run the application and put values into the user name field to execute the remote validation as in the following image. Figure 1: Remote validation on user name
Now we move to another option, we pass an additional parameter in the remote validation. We pass both the user name and email as a parameter and check whether the username and email combination exist or not on the email input. That's why we add one more method in ValidationController as in the following code snippet for it.
[HttpGet] public JsonResult IsUserExist(string email, string userName) { bool isExist = StaticData.UserList.Where(u = > u.UserName.ToLowerInvariant().Equals(userName.ToLower()) && u.Email.ToLowerInvariant().Equals(email.ToLower())).FirstOrDefault() != null; return Json(!isExist, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); }
Now we call this method on the Email property of UserViewModel as in the following code snippet.
using System.Web.Mvc; namespace RemoteValidation.Models { public class UserViewModel { [Remote("IsUserNameExist", "Validation", ErrorMessage = "User name already exist")] public string UserName { get; set; } [Remote("IsUserExist", "Validation", ErrorMessage = "User already exist", AdditionalFields = "UserName")] public string Email { get; set; } } }
As in the preceding code snippet, we are passing an additional field using AdditionalFields in Remote. If we must pass more than one parameter then these will be comma-separated. Now run the application and the result will be as shown in the following image.
Today, I write about how Displaying Validation Errors with ASP.NET MVC. We all know how crucial it is to validate user input, but it's equally crucial how we present validation errors for the user. Take the following type:
The e mail field needs to be optional but any address entered must be valid. If a validation error happens, it ought to replace the optional label using the error message.Behind the scenes I'm employing Data Annotations to validate the email address, so any errors is going to be passed into the ModelState. MVC has built-in help for displaying these errors (using the ValidateMessageFor helper) so it is easy to create a wrapper around that, supplying the 'optional' text as a parameter.
Here's an extension method for the HtmlHelper:
public static class ExtensionMethods{ public static MvcHtmlString HelpMessageFor<TModel, TProperty>(this HtmlHelper<TModel> htmlHelper, Expression<Func<TModel, TProperty>> expression, string helpText) { var validation = htmlHelper.ValidationMessageFor(expression); if (validation == null) return new MvcHtmlString("" + helpText + ""); else return validation; }}
Here's it's usage:
<fieldset>
 @Html.LabelFor(x => x.EmailAddress, "Email", new { @class = "control-label" })
 @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.EmailAddress, new { @class = "input-xlarge", placeholder = "Enter an email address" }) @Html.HelpMessageFor(x => x.EmailAddress, "Optional")

</fieldset>

Securing your ASP.NET MVC application ought to be priority number a single each time you begin a brand new net application. Employing the attributes Authorize and ValidateAntiForgeryToken in every single controller and action will be the only method to stay away from any safety holes. In this post I'll show you the best way to secure your ASP.NET application by implementing the AuthorizeAttribute and ValidateAntiForgeryTokenAttribute classes.
The basicsIn the extremely least, you need to add an [Authorize] attribute to every controller or controller Action in case you would like several of the controller actions to be accessible by anonymous users. As an example, you probably want ALL users to possess access for the login and register actions of one's web application.By decorating the HomeController using the Authorize attribute (notice I didn't specify any user part) the application will avert any unauthenticated user from executing any in the actions in this controller.
[Authorize]public class HomeController : Controller{ //...}
The following is an instance of decorating a controller action with all the Authorize attribute, you desire to complete this if you only want to restrict access to a few of the actions in a controller instead of all actions.
[Authorize]public ActionResult Create(){ //...}
Safeguarding against Cross-site request forgery attack (CSRF or XSRF)The Authorize attribute delivers protection which is sufficient in most situations. Nonetheless, there's security hole with this and therefore it opens your web application for a cross-site request forgery attack. By way of example, right after a user logs into your website the website will concern your browser an authentication token inside a cookie. Every single subsequent request, the browser sends the cookie back for the site to let the web site realize that you are authorized to take what ever action you are taking, so far every thing is very good.Right here would be the issue with only using the Authorize attribute, let's say that a user is logged in to your website and then they visit a spam web site by clicking on a hyperlink that points to one more web site which causes a kind post back to your site… this can be negative, your browser will send the authentication cookie to your website generating it seem as when the request came out of your website and initiated by an authenticated user when it genuinely didn't.The above situation is known as cross-site request forgery and can be avoided by adding the ValidateAntiForgeryToken attribute offered inside the .NET framework, this attribute is employed to detect regardless of whether a server request has been tampered with.The initial step would be to add the ValidateAntiForgeryToken attribute to every single Post Action as follows:
[HttpPost, Authorize, ValidateAntiForgeryToken]public ActionResult Create(){ //...}
The next step is to add the HtmlHelper strategy @Html.AntiForgeryToken() inside the type within your view.The way the ValidateAntiForgeryToken attribute operates is by checking to view that the cookie and hidden kind field left by the Html.AntiForgeryToken() HtmlHelper essentially exists and match. If they do not exist or match, it throws an HttpAntiForgeryException shown beneath:"A essential anti-forgery token was not supplied or was invalid"By adding the ValidateAntiForgeryToken for your controller actions your internet site will likely be prepared to stop CSRF/XSRF attacks.
Implementing Forms Authentication using Active Directory (AD)Often times you might run across a project where you need to authenticate users of your website using Active Directory credentials, the good news is that you can use the existing "Account" controller to achieve this, only a few modifications are necessary.When you create a new MVC Web Application project and choose the Internet Application template, the Account controller is added to the project, you can use this controller with AD to authenticate your users. For the Account controller to work with AD we need to remove all Actions but the following:
Your Account controller should look like the following after you remove the unnecessary Actions such as ChangePassword, Register, etc.
public ActionResult LogOn() { return View(); } [HttpPost] public ActionResult LogOn(LogOnModel model, string returnUrl) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { if (Membership.ValidateUser(model.UserName, model.Password)) { FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(model.UserName, model.RememberMe); if (Url.IsLocalUrl(returnUrl) && returnUrl.Length > 1 && returnUrl.StartsWith("/") && !returnUrl.StartsWith("//") && !returnUrl.StartsWith("/\\")) { return Redirect(returnUrl); } else { return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home"); } } else { ModelState.AddModelError("", "The user name or password provided is incorrect"); } } // if we got this far, something failed, redisplay form return View(model); } public ActionResult LogOff() { FormsAuthentication.SignOut(); return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home"); }
After this, go ahead and clean up the AccountModel as well so the only model class left is the LogOnModel:
public class LogOnModel { [Required] [Display(Name = "User name")] public string UserName { get; set; } [Required] [DataType(DataType.Password)] public string Password { get; set; } [Display(Name = "Remember me?")] public string RememberMe { get; set; } }
Lastly, add the following to the project's web.config file:
The vNext tag has been placed on the next version of ASP.NET MVC 6. ASP.NET vNext will be optimized for the cloud, which means applications will (or should) have only the pieces that it needs. In addition, it promises more flexible componentization and better class performance and startup times. An interesting twist is ASP.NET vNext will be an open source project as part of the .NET Foundation. In addition, the .NET compiler platform "Roslyn" is open sourced as well.
.NET vNext support true side-by-side deployment. If your app is using cloud-optimized subset of .NET vNext, you can deploy all of your dependencies including the .NET vNext (cloud optimized) by uploading bin to hosting environment. In this way you can update your app without affecting other applications on the same server. ASP.NET vNext will let you deploy your own version of the .NET Framework on an app-by-app-basis. MVC, Web API and Web Pages have been merged into one framework, called MVC 6. This will follow common programming approach between all these three i.e. a single programming model for Web sites and services. ASP.NET vNext includes new cloud-optimized versions of MVC, Web API, Web Pages, SignalR, and Entity Framework. The advantage of using the Cloud Optimized Framework is that you can include a copy of the Core (or Mono) CLR with your website. You no longer have to upgrade .NET on the entire machine for the sake of one website. You can even have different versions of the CLR for different websites running side by side.
.NET vNext use the Roslyn compiler to compile code dynamically. You will be able to edit a code file, refresh the browser, and see the changes without rebuilding the project. .NET vNext is open source and cross platform. Not only is Microsoft planning for cross-platform deployment, they are also enabling cross-platform development. Batch files for the major platforms such as OS X and Linux will be provided so that you can package and deploy ASP.NET vNext projects without needing Windows and Visual Studio. MVC 6 has no dependency on System.Web since it was quite expensive. A typical HttpContext object graph can consume 30K of memory per request and working with small JSON-style requests this is very costly. With MVC 6 it is reduced to roughly 2K. The result is a leaner framework, with faster startup time and lower memory consumption. ASP.NET vNext apps are cloud ready by design. Services such as session state and caching will adjust their behavior depending on hosting environment either. It is cloud or a traditional hosting environment. It uses dependency injection behind the scenes to provide your app with the correct implementation for these services for cloud or a traditional hosting environment. In this way, it will easy to move your app from on-premises to the cloud, since you need not to change your code. vNext is host agnostic. You can host your app in IIS, or self-host in a custom process. (Web API 2 and SignalR 2 already support self-hosting; ASP.NET vNext brings this same capability to MVC.)ASP.NET vNext has new project extension project.json to list all the dependencies for the application and astartup class in place of Global.asax.Dependency injection is built into the framework. Now, you can use your preferred IoC container to register dependencies.
Web hosting provider ASPHostPortal.com (www.asphostportal.com) announced this week that it has support of ASP.NET MVC 6.0 Hosting. The ASP.NET MVC 6.0 Framework is the latest evolution of Microsoft's ASP.NET web platform. ASP.NET MVC 6 represents a fundamental change to how Microsoft constructs and deploys web frameworks. The goal is to create a host agnostic framework that eliminates the dependencies on the legacy System.Web infrastructure.Included in MVC 6 is Web API and Web Pages, allowing Microsoft to remove a lot of the overlap between the three frameworks. One result of this change means that MVC will be self-hosting just like Web API 2 and SignalR 2. MVC 6 has no dependency on System.Web since it was quite expensive. A typical HttpContext object graph can consume 30K of memory per request and working with small JSON-style requests this is very costly. With MVC 6 it is reduced to roughly 2K. The result is a leaner framework, with faster startup time and lower memory consumption.

>Hi Ted,
>Glad to read you acknowledging the existence of things like the 'strong programme' of social constructivism (sociology of scientific knowledge [SSK], whose seminal text was Bloor's "Knowledge and Social Imagery," 1976), in light of this debacle in climatology. One could add of course the Bath school and the Paris school and the Columbia school and the Wisconsin-Berkley-Cornell network (and others) to the Edinburgh school and discover many important things about this issue of 'scientific credibility' and the 'status of scientists.' Let's face it, after all, the fields known as 'sociology of science' and 'science studies' offer the most important insights here.
>Let me first point out that neither your view of 'postmodernism' nor that of the columnist at WSJ are fair or accurate. (And it wasn't 'history of science' that *debunked* scientific 'objectivity,' as you say, but rather philosophy of science. That is clear given the 'topic' of their respective academic domains.) Post-modernism is not 'anti-objective' but rather 'pro-subjective' (to put it in crude neo-Cartesian terms) and this is indeed a logical position for human-social scientists to take given the over-objectivity of much of the modernist natural-physical scientistic project.
>Henninger writes:
>"As the hard sciences-physics, biology, chemistry, electrical engineering-came to dominate intellectual life in the last century, some academics in the humanities devised the theory of postmodernism, which liberated them from their colleagues in the sciences. Postmodernism, a self-consciously "unprovable" theory, replaced formal structures with subjectivity."
>Engineering is a 'hard science'? Many people call it an 'applied science.' That's just one thing. But more important is Henninger's misunderstanding, better to say confusion, about what postmodernism is and isn't. It is *not* simply a theory. I was born (in Canada) in what is called a 'post-modern' age. Period. This is broadly accepted in the human-social sciences (and it applies to several but not all countries around the world).
>Liberation from collegues who are in 'the sciences.' This monolithic language is still suspect. The first thing that 'science studies' students learn is to ask: Which science? Whose science? Indeed, there are many sciences.
>There is a notion in many scholars' minds today that we are undergoing a shift beyond 'modernism.' We've gone past the 'modern' notion of 'science'. Read sociology of science or science studies and this becomes abundantly clear and most importantly it makes sense to 'normal' people. We're past the Euro-Enlightenment paradigm now. One cannot any longer celebrate 'science' as 'Science' or as the one field (meaning, in your languages, the one that studies 'Nature') that offers a view of 'absolute truth.'
>No, today there are truths, there are sciences, and there are multiple ways of understanding the universe, some that are indeed 'extra-scientific,' yet nonetheless still valid and important. The notion of 'pure science,' or 'hard science' (as Henninger backwardly calls it) is much more contentious today than it was in the early 20th or 19th centuries. We are living in a different world now (which is what Americans like to say about post-9-11, though it is not true for everybody - heck, many other countries don't start with 'month', but with 'day' (11-09-01)!). Some people on the leading edges have begun to communicate this and many natural-physical scientists don't like it because they mis-perceive it as inevitably having negative effects for them and their fields. They are wrong and should get with the programme and learn to communicate better and more holistically!
>Henninger's words are nevertheless strong and appear to be trying to understand the situation, though without the proper tools. He says: "I don't think most scientists appreciate what has hit them." "This has harsh implications for the credibility of science generally." "Science is on the credibility bubble." This is all regarding the 'status' and 'importance' of 'science' in societies, which is a question for sociologists to address in depth.
>Robert Merton wrote the first major English paper on sociology of science, "Science and the Social Order" (1938). It would be highly valuable for many on this list to read it (and if you have access to JSTOR, you can easily find it). Here are a few quotes from it:
>"Modern science has considered the personal equation as a potential source of error and has evolved impersonal criteria for checking such error. It is now called upon to assert that certain scientists, because of their extra-scientific affiliations, are a priori incapable of anything but spurious and false theories. In some instances, scientists are required to accept the judgments of scientifically incompetent political leaders concerning matters ofscience." (327)
> "the scientist, in company with all other professional workers, has a large emotional investment in his [sic] way of life, defined by the institutional norms which govern his activity. The social stability of science can be ensured only if adequate defences are set up against changes imposed from outside the scientific fraternity itself." (327)
> "At the same time, this stress upon the purity of science has had other consequences which threaten rather than preserve the social esteem of science. It is repeatedly urged that scientists should in their research ignore all considerations other than the advance of knowledge." (329)
> "Precisely because scientific research is not conducted in a social vacuum, its effects ramify into other spheres of value and interest. Insofar as these effects are deemed socially undesirable, science is charged with responsibility. The goods of science are no longer considered an unqualified blessing. Examined from this perspective, the tenet of pure science and disinterestedness has helped to prepare its own epitaph." (332)
> "Conflict arises when the social effects of applying scientific knowledge are deemed undesirable, when the scientist's scepticism is directed toward the basic values of other institutions, when the expansion of political or religious or economic authority limits the autonomy of the scientist, when anti-intellectualism questions the value and integrity of science and when non-scientific criteria of eligibility for scientific research are introduced." (336)
>That was from 1938! I send these quotes to you (ASA list) only because Merton (who was neither a constructivist nor a relativist) is easier for English speakers to understand. Let it be remembered that Merton learned about SoS from Sorokin, whom he assisted at Harvard. And Sorokin got it from science studies (naukovedenie) which originated in Russia in the 1910's and early 1920's (i.e. before sociology was banished for almost 70 years as a 'bourgeois science' from the Soviet Union). The main issue to discover, in addition to the locations in a given society in which 'sciences' are performed, is: 'what does science MEAN' to people, to society?
>Now, if anyone on the list is feeling reflexive (i.e. the view that 'reflexive method' is a legitimate alternative to 'positive method'), an interesting question is to ask: why did sociology of science *not* originate in the United States, but rather in Russia? Likewise, why are the most celebrated philosophers of science (aside from Kuhn) not from North America? I would be glad to hear any answers to these questions from anyone on the list who is interesed.
>This topic of leaked e-mails and the credibility of science are not 'purely scientific' ones. What is required is not for more biologists or climatologists to pronounce on this issue. But instead, anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists and economists speaking with their 'reflexive' and also 'objective' views of what is happening to the reputation of 'science' in our contemporary age should be speaking more often. Otherwise there is no balance and their is no justice regarding who is qualified to speak about what. I would fault sociologists of science who don't speak clearly and competently on this particular issue.
>Ted writes: "some scientists do try to control access to the exchange of scientific information and opinions--beyond the appropriate review process for scientific journals, which can also be abused. "
>This has been known and discussed for years and years...but in channels that are not tuned into by the vast majority of natural-physical scientists. I guess this episode at East Anglia offers an opportunity to correct this deficiency of knowledge about other fields. Hopefully it will also help to generate a level of mutual respect in a common cause of understanding reality and its truths.

>echo the concerns expressed in this WSJ op-ed:
>Post-modern efforts to undermine the objectivity of science are only encouraged by episodes like this, when tend to reinforce the impression that, if you don't like the implications of the conclusions of the "experts," you go find your own "experts" to back up a different set of conclusions. We are seeing something similar--as I said we would, a few weeks ago--with the flap about recommendations for mammograms for women younger than 50. I'm not suggesting that we get into that one here; it seems pretty peripheral to science/faith, unlike the AGW controversy which intersects with theology of creation and stewardship in obvious ways. Nevertheless, it's a similar situation.
>You can't put the genie back into the bottle, regardless of whether it's ethical to cite or discuss the emails. There will be well-founded perceptions, that some scientists do try to control access to the exchange of scientific information and opinions--beyond the appropriate review process for scientific journals, which can also be abused.
>The root problem, IMO, has to do with balancing the human component involved with the creation of scientific knowledge (this has political, philosophical, cultural, and personal aspects) with the non-human component from nature that objectively exists and does impinge on us, whether or not we like what it's saying. Cynics will conclude too readily that science entirely lacks objectivity (this is the view encouraged by the Edinburgh "strong programme" of social constructivism), while defenders of science will conclude too readily that science is purely objective and is done by robots in an intellectual and cultural vacuum (this was the older view of science, before history of science debunked it). The truth IMO lies somewhere toward the middle--but the middle, in highly charged controversies such as this one, is (by definition) hit from both sides. Let's hope that the truth is not a casualty, as it sometimes is.

PHOTOPHILE- Let it shine: Lawn joins the holiday spirit
Let there be light! That might have been the motto on the Corner on Thursday, November 30, as students, community members, and passers-by gathered on the north side of the Rotunda for the sixth annual "Lighting of the Lawn."
Presented by the Class of 2007 Trustees, the event featured several University student a cappella groups such as the Virginia Gentlemen, Virginia Bells, Black Voices, and ReMiX. UVA made one big shindig of the event as there were parties in almost all of the Pavilions and students and faculty brought their blankets, dogs, and children to enjoy this annual holiday fest.
Just like the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree in New York, there was a countdown to the flipping of the switch, but with a Cavalier twist. When the numbers reached seven, illuminated emblems of the Seven, Z and IMP Societies lit up on the Rotunda facade before the rest of the lights lining the Lawn side of the Academical Village.
How's that for a happy Wahoo holiday message?

An associate professor of biochemistry at the University of Saskatchewan is trying to get more students interested in science by looking at the health benefits of picking your nose and eating it.
Scott Napper says nature pushes us to do different things because it is to our advantage to have certain behaviours, to consume different types of foods.
Napper says mucous traps germs and stops them from getting into our body, but if we consume that mucous, it could help train our immune system by exposing it to the germs.
So he says when children have the urge to pick their nose and eat it, parents shouldn't get upset.
Napper says he hopes to conduct a study where some type of molecule is inserted in people's noses and then half the participants pick their nose and eat it and the other half don't.
"I think the challenge would be getting volunteers to participate in this experiment," he says with a laugh. "Especially if you didn't know which group you were going to fall into."
Napper also says making science more humorous and fun keeps students interested and engaged.
"I don't try to convert them all to biochemistry. My goal is always if I can teach you one thing that you're going to tell somebody else about outside the scope of this class, then I've prompted you to think a little bit, to question these things and I think with this example, it probably succeeded in that."
Napper has two young daughters and says the idea of letting them pick their noses, even if in the name of science, didn't go over well with his wife.
"Yeah, she's of a different opinion," he says. "She's more towards training them to be little ladies."

Most Common House Ants in Naperville IL
Although there may be hundreds of ant species in the states, there are a select few that commonly invade Illinois homes. While these ants may look and behave somewhat different from one another, each of them can be threatening in their own way. Four of the most common household ants you will find in the Naperville IL: area:
Carpenter Ants – These are large black ants that can grow as big as 5/8 on an inch long. Carpenter ants build their nests within wood. What this means is that if they take up residence in your home, they can create a lot of costly damage as they tunnel about inside the house's structure. Controlling or eliminating carpenter ants is very difficult without the right training and equipment. The problem is you have to wipe out their nest. Just killing off the ones out scouting for food doesn't address the real problem: the hundreds more in the nest
Odorous Ants – Odorous ants can be either dark brown or black and can range in length from 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch long. These ants enjoy nesting under floor boards or inside walls. Once they make their way into a home, they can damage the home's structure and contaminate any food left out in the open.
Little Black Ants – These shiny black ants only grow to about 1/16 of an inch long. Little black ants colonize such things as logs, stumps or mulch. They can often be found invading homes while in search of food. Since they are so small, they easily gain entry through cracks in window frames, door frames or around a house's foundation.
Pharaoh Ants – These are very tiny ants (usually about 1/16 of an inch). They can be from yellow to red in color, but most often are amber. They usually feed on sweets and dead insects, but they've also been known to feed on blood under wound dressings, vomit, and other bodily fluids in hospital settings. They often travel throughout buildings through wall voids and electrical conduits in search of food.
Pharaoh ants are among the most difficult of all insects to control due to their small size, their large colonies (often numbering in the tens or hundreds of thousands of workers and usually having multiple queens), their hidden foraging habits, and their peculiar ability to select a new queen if a group of workers gets separated from the main colony.
For best results in getting rid of an ant infestation, you really need to bring in experienced ant removal exterminators. Call Bus Anonymous today for ant removal in Naperville, IL at 630-529-7216 and ask about our six month guarantee.

It was a tough practice this morning. Slippery balance, diminished strength, and a Retriever who head butted me in triangle because she needs all the love.
How do I commit more to this? Where are the free minutes? Do I need to be waking up earlier? Doing it at lunch?
My work has a wellness benefit that basically paid for a couple months at the yoga studio, which helps as we need to buy a new furnace and as we move towards adoption (lots to update on this blog.)
I just miss the quiet of the practice and the internal focus, you know? Not quite sure how to get where I'd like to be.

What the fuck, Texas? A mother in Dallas has been accused of forcing her 6-year-old daughter to use a cellphone and record her having sex. According to the AP, the mother was held on Monday and charged with indecency with a child. It's unknown whether she is still in custody, and her name is being withheld to protect the identity of the kid.
Most horrifying:
Police say the investigation involves three incidents since March and several men.
The young girl has been placed with Child Protective Service Services, and hopefully she'll be getting some much-needed counseling and therapy.

I'll leave further commentary on the matter to my state Delegate, Scott Lingamfelter (R-31):
Virginia Democrats and their apologists in the moonbatosphere have consistently asked for evidence of voter fraud in the Commonwealth to evade sensible protections against its perpetration. Now that they have it, they have two choices: (1) support these reasonable regulations; or (2) explain why they won't/come up with another reason for not doing so.
For several years, Republicans in the General Assembly ... have advanced efforts to address voter fraud. It's hardly deniable given recent history.Take the 2008 General Election that put former "Saturday Night Live" comedic clown Al Franken of Minnesota in the US Senate. A study by Minnesota Majority, a conservative watchdog group, found that at least 341 convicted felons in largely Democratic Minneapolis-St. Paul voted illegally in the 2008 Senate race between Franken, a Democrat, and then-incumbent Republican Sen. Norm Coleman. The final recount showed Franken beat Coleman by 312 votes, less than the number of felons who voted.Meanwhile, prosecutors in South Bend, Indiana have filed charges against four Democratic officials and deputies in a multiple-felony case alleging the forging of Democratic presidential primary petitions in the 2008 election for then-candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. These officials are accused of faking signatures and names on the primary petitions needed to run for President. Court papers say the plan was conceived by local Democratic Party officials inside the local party headquarters. Here's the link:Incidents like this one can be found around the nation so legislatures across America have moved to bring greater integrity to both registration and voting. This is why Republicans in the House of Delegates are taking action. Here are a few examples.
- HB 9 says a voter without identification will be offered a provisional ballot that will be reviewed by the electoral board at its meeting on the day following the election if he presents proper identification.
- HB 57 provides that the general registrar will process the State Board's most recent list of convicted felons within 21 to 14 days before an election, cancel the registration of any registered voter shown to be a felon, and notify the registered voter of the cancellation.
- HB 63 provides that the meeting of the electoral board on the day or days following an election is open only to authorized party and candidate representatives and the persons who cast the provisional ballots with their representatives or legal counsel.All of these bills make sense. HB 9 gets rid of the current system that lets a voter simply sign a statement saying they are the person they claim to be. Now they need to show identification. HB 57 makes it tougher for felons to slip through the cracks and vote. And HB 63 basically keeps organizations like the corrupt ACORN group from influencing vote counting of provisional ballots.While these bill are not perfect ..., they do improve the system. But that did not stop liberal Democrats in the House of Delegates from opposing all of them this year. And in each case, House Democrats argued "where is the evidence of voter fraud in Virginia?" Well we now have that answer, as if we didn't know.
Of course, if Virginia Democrats take the former course, I look forward to the apologies and mea culpas from them.
I won't hold my breath.
If, however, they choose the latter course, they'll have to come up with another reason why they won't support efforts to root out voter fraud. Might it be that the real reason for doing so is because Democrats are its most frequent --- though not exclusive --- practitioners, and they expect to benefit from it?
The proof will be in their response.
