All status updates after the exit from deep-space hibernation on 20 January 2014 are posted on the Rosetta blog.
The Rosetta spacecraft is in active cruise mode and preparation activities for the observation of the NASA Deep Impact probe's encounter with comet Tempel-1 continued over the reporting period.
The Rosetta spacecraft is in active cruise mode in preparation for the next science phase planned for end June. The most important activity in the reporting period was a full reload of the Solid State Mass Memory (SSMM) onboard software, carried out in the period 7 to 9 June.
The spacecraft is in active cruise mode in preparation for Rosetta's next active science phase planned for end June. In the reporting period several thermal characterisation and reconfiguration activities were carried out.
The main activity in this three week period was the in-flight commissioning of the Near Sun
Hibernation Mode (NSHM), during which the Rosetta spacecraft spent days in this special low activity mode, with attitude controlled via Star Tracker and thrusters only (gyroscopes and reaction wheels are inactive).
The reporting period was dominated by the preparation and execution of the first Earth swingby manoeuvre of the Rosetta spacecraft. The sequence started with a trajectory correction manoeuvre successfully executed on 17 February, which put the spacecraft on its final course to Earth. Thanks to the precision of this manoeuvre, a back-up manoeuvre planned for 24 February could be cancelled.
The main activity in the reporting period was the successful first in-flight test of the Near Sun Hibernation Mode (NSHM), during which the spacecraft spent five days in this special low activity mode, with attitude controlled via Star Tracker and thrusters only (gyroscopes and reaction wheels are inactive).
The reporting period covers the last instrument observation in Rosetta's Earth swing-by 1 mission phase, the first Payload Passive Checkout and preparation of the Near Sun Hibernation Mode (NSHM) in-flight test.
Report for the period 11 to 25 March 2005
The reporting period covers the last few post-Earth swing-by spacecraft configuration activities and some delta-commissioning operations on the payload as agreed in the Commissioning
Review of December 2004.
Report for the period 25 February to 11 March 2005
Report for the period 17 to 27 January 2005
The spacecraft is in cruise mode. In the reporting period a number of outstanding troubleshooting activities were carried out, in addition to the routine flight operations and monitoring tasks.
Rosetta continues to fly in cruise mode which it entered 17 October. The AOCS gyro-less estimator was activated on 4 November and has been running since, outside the control loop for validation. This activity required an AOCMS patch in RAM to prevent incorrect use of gyro-less estimator output by the FDIR when the gyro-less and gyro-stellar estimators are ON in parallel. So far, the performance of the gyro-less estimator is good.
Report for week 15 to 22 October
The Rosetta commissioning phase was completed in the beginning of the reporting period, with the last main activities on the TTC subsystem, involving MGA pattern calibration and S-band tests with LGA and HGA.
In this last week of the commissioning phase the spacecraft spent most of the time in contact with the ground, using DSN passes during the day and New Norcia during the night. This allowed an intense and ambitious operations plan to be executed. All planned payload commissioning activities were completed in the reporting period, including additional slots scheduled for COSIMA and RPC. The ROSINA final commissioning pass originally planned for 11 October has been cancelled due to on-going investigations on the instrument. Several commissioning and configuration activities were carried out on the spacecraft subsystems.
During the reporting period, the Pointing Scenario part 2 was completed and the last Lander commissioning block started.
The reporting period consisted fully of the continuation of the Pointing Scenario part 2, which started on 23 September and is due to finish on 2 October.
In the reporting period the payload commissioning activities continued, with the completion of the OSIRIS functional commissioning, the execution of the first part of the ROSINA functional commissioning (RTOF and DFMS high voltages), the first Interference Scenario and the start of the long Pointing Scenario.
In the reporting period the payload commissioning activities continued, with the first part of the Pointing Scenario, covering two days of VIRTIS operations with MIRO, MIDAS and RSI activities, the final MIDAS functional commissioning and the start of the OSIRIS functional commissioning. All activities have been executed according to schedule and completed successfully.
In the reporting period daily contact with the spacecraft was established to allow the completion of payload software updates and the start of the second and last part of the Commissioning Phase.

NEW YORK (AP) - A former "Sopranos" actor convicted of attempted burglary for his role in the killing of an off-duty New York City police officer has been released on parole.
State corrections officials said that Lillo Brancato Jr. was freed from prison at 9 a.m. on Tuesday.
A jury found Brancato guilty on the attempted burglary charge in 2008 but acquitted him of murder in the death of Officer Daniel Enchautegui.. He was sentenced to 10 years. His co-defendant was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Brancato made his debut in 1993 in "A Bronx Tale" opposite Robert De Niro. He played a doomed aspiring mobster in HBO's "The Sopranos."
There was no immediate response to a message left on Tuesday with his attorney.

How to Play the Immediate Uncertainty of this Promising Biotech Stock
Brian is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Sarepta Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SRPT) has been one of the best performing stocks of the last year, and has among the greatest level of promise in the biotechnology industry. However, it faces immediate uncertainty, and because of that uncertainty I am exploring the best way to play the stock.
A 50/50 Chance is a Gamble
Sarepta Therapeutics has been volatile over the last few sessions, but saw a 5.17% gain on Friday after Piper Jaffray reiterated its "Overweight" rating on the stock following updated Eterplirsen data. The firm is highly optimistic for the company's future, but is giving a $35 price target based on a 50/50 chance that its drug will receive an accelerated approval. If the drug is granted an accelerated approval for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) then Jaffray explained that they will revisit its price target.
Last month I named Sarepta Therapeutics my "Value of the Month" and it has since rallied 25%. The company is one of my favorite in biotechnology, as I believe it along with Acadia Pharmaceuticals, is the most sure thing in the space. However, a 50/50 chance is not "great" but is a fair assessment. The company's study produced unprecedented results yet the study was small. Therefore, I think it may have been bad timing for the firm to reiterate its call.
Expecting Positive Results But Uncertainty Lurks
Currently, the market is expecting an accelerated approval due to their being no treatment options for DMD, and because the results for its small study were incredible to say the least. After 74 weeks, patients saw a 62.4 meter improvement in walking distance in the six-minute walk. This may not sound like much, but for those who suffer from the disease, it is a glimmer of hope. As a result, the market wants an approval, but with less than 20 patients tested, and no clear manufacturing strategy, there is a good chance that the FDA will want more data. In the event of this decision, it is almost logical to suggest that Sarepta could see short-term downside between 15% and 30%, making it a very high-risk investment at this point.
Regardless of the FDA's immediate decision, there will no doubt be positive remarks from the committee and the drug will almost certainly be FDA approved at some point in time. In a market that wants and seeks immediate results, this will not be encouraging to all if the FDA requires more testing. However, if the drug is granted an accelerated approval, then Sarepta will most likely see a 10% to 20% increase in valuation. Therefore, the question of whether or not to invest is both a decision based on your time horizon and also your risk tolerance.
Looking at Sarepta as a long-term investment, there are almost no reasons to believe that it will not eventually be approved. Once again, clinical results and no treatment options for the disease weigh in the company's favor. However, my advice, as the best way to play the decision is to simply wait. The company is currently valued at $1.15 billion and Eterplirsen has peak sales potential in the neighborhood of $700 million. In biotechnology, this is a combination to create significant upside from this point forward, and then there is the final emphasis of valuation, which is the Orphan status and its technology.
Long-Term Upside is Great (Relative to Others in the Space)
Sarepta has a great clinical team with an encouraging pipeline; it is not just a one-hit wonder. In biotechnology, most companies trade at 3-5 times sales (following an approval), but then there are a class of stocks that trade at much higher multiples, those with Orphan designations. An Orphan designation indicates to the market that a company is innovating, transcendent, and that its product will have more time of exclusivity on the market. A couple prime examples are BioMarin Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: BMRN) and Alexion Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ALXN).
BioMarin is a company with just $500 million in sales over the last 12 months that trades with a market cap of $7.78 billion. Therefore, it trades with a price/sales of more than 15.0 (far times greater than the industry average). The company has a large pipeline and there are many reasons for this valuation, specifically its clinical drug GALNS, a drug that could double its revenue.
Alexion is a near $20 billion company with revenue of $1.13 billion, therefore having a price/sales of 17.00. Much like BioMarin, the company's upside is in its exclusivity, its technology, and its pipeline. The point is if two companies with revenue between $500 million and $1.1 billion trade with market caps between $7.78 billion and $20 billion, then eventually, Sarepta Therapeutics is worth the same with its peak sales potential of $700 million and the same Orphan statuses and technology that makes these two companies valued so high.
If you have a long-term time horizon and are confident enough to hold a volatile biotechnology stock, then I say "buy now" for great long-term upside. But in an unstable economy, some don't have the time or the security to buy such a stock and forget about it for five years, especially with uncertainty ahead, regarding the FDA. At this point it is a question of timing, and although I believe Sarepta will increase five fold over the next several years, I think it might be wise to wait, watch, and then buy following the FDA's decision. Because even if the decision is to accelerate the approval, the stock will still have great upside potential from this point forward.

Can we train our intuition to be more effective at solving problems?
Seventeen years ago I wrote an article called, "Communal Blind Spot Theory". In that article it was my experience that in every discipline I have studied there are collective oversights i.e. communal blind spots.
Think of an individual blind spot as you not seeing a glass of water on the kitchen counter in plain sight. Now imagine 1000 people going into the kitchen not seeing that glass of water on the counter.
Can we train our intuition to see through those blind spots?
We speak of a woman's intuitiion. What do we mean? Do we mean a woman feeling uneasy about entering an elevator with a single man inside? Do we mean a brilliant research scientist who has a strong "gut" reaction about one aspect of her studies? Clearly these are two entirely different aspects of a "woman's intuition".
Here is a cook book recipe to use intuition as a research tool. It is argued here that an intuitive view of reality is every bit as valid as a logical and factual view of reality. Thus it is only when my intuition agrees with the facts and logic that I view this as useful knowledge.
Here is how it works in practice. Suppose I have a strong gut reaction that a particular enzyme impacts on a specific gene and this results in an elevated rate of breast cancer. I test this hypothesis and get a null result but my gut tells me that the results are not consistent with my intuition.
Do I walk away from my intuition? According to my theories, no. You run the experiment weeks or months later to try to confirm the earlier results. If you get a null result, then you walk away for another few months. Next time you tweak the experiment say changing the temperature or PH slightly and run the experiment again. If you get a null result yet your intuition remains fixed, you tweak the experiment again.
Clearly this is not possible in the real world; if you were to run the same experiments again and again with null results you won't get funding, but it is critical to finding paradigm shifts.

Santokh Saggu 10+Nov 18 2012: Our brain is a super computer, which is always on and active and keep researching. In fact every human being is a researcher. And so are women . Women too are researchers
Once they have a cursory glance at the stranger they get the vibes and can sense that what type of person he or she may be or is.
The answer lies in their nature of easily mixing and mingling with others. They can build relationships easily, or you can say they have good networking skills.
To establish the relationship between the networking skills and intuition, let us travel back in time and go back to the beginning of the civilization when the human life started its journey on this planet earth.
In the good old times when people used to live in caves, during those days men used to go out to hunt for food. While they were busy in their business of hunting animals , back home the women looked after the kids . In their spare times when they would have freed themselves from looking after the kids , women used to interact and communicate with their neighbors. This way they had a good interaction with the other people including grown up kids of others.
This direct interaction with others fed their brains with loads of information about each individual in detail. And their brain did the processing of the information at a lightening speed.
In fact their brain helped them discover and develop new knowledge, which further helped them to develop and boost their intuitive power.
Now, whenever they came across any stranger, their highly developed intuitive power helped them receive vibes about the stranger being interacted. This whole process helped them to sense the nature of the stranger.
In the modern age too, women can mix and mingle with others easily. Their nature of easy interaction with others and the relationship building process is evident in their behavior. This is as valid as This is as valid as it was in the ancient times.

Nov 18 2012: Social skills developed out of necessity but, as I indicated, women also have more than just intuition in social skills e.g. many female scientists have a strong intutive feel for their research---just as many men do as well.
What is unclear is just what role socialization took in taking mates. Was there a dominant male such as occurs in certain primates like gorillas or was there pair bonding i.e. couples as opposed to a tribe?
It will be interesting to see if the 20 female Senators we elected can work together!

31 year old Javier Juarez has been on the run from the feds for nearly five years. Cook County prosecutors have charged him with killing his girlfriend, Maria Soriano. Chicago police and FBI agents say Juarez stabbed Soriano during an argument at his west side home in the early morning hours of August 16, 2005.
Investigators believe Juarez took a charter flight or Puerto Vallarta, Mexico that same morning and hasnt been seen since.
What's also helped Juarez disappear is investigators say he doesnt have any fingerprints on file.
Without that they say its very hard to track his whereabouts. Agents say Juarez could still be in Mexico or right back here in Chicago. Without those prints, the FBI's Tom Trautmann says a fugitive "could have been arrested several times and as long as they're using some fake id to back that up, nobody would ever know. We hope that by airing his photograph and the general public seeing it, someone will recognize him (Juarez) and call in."
To make matters worse, agents know of at least two aliases Juarez uses: Carlos Doriga and Victor Zain Galan Juarez. They also say Juarez has a twin brother named Geraldo Juarez and may be using his twin's identity to help him hide.
Here is a detailed description of what agents say Juarez looks like. He is described as a hispanic male,
about five feet eight inches tall, weighing around 170 pounds, with dark hair and eyes. He also has two tattoos: the names "Maria" on his neck and "Samantha" on his upper right arm.
He is considered armed and dangerous. If you see him, call police.

Great christmas presents
These jars make lovely hamper gifts, Just label your jars with storage instructions so your friends and family can get the best out of their gift, then pack into boxes with other chilli-themed items such as chilli-chocolate covered almonds from Kshocolat (£3.95/80g tin, available from Waitrose), and packets of chilli seeds (southdevonchillifarm.co.uk)
- Tip the peppers, chillies (with seeds), ginger and garlic into a food processor, then whizz until very finely chopped. Scrape into a heavy-bottomed pan with the tomatoes, sugar and vinegar, then bring everything to the boil. Skim off any scum that comes to the surface, then turn the heat down to a simmer and cook for about 50 mins, stirring occasionally.
- Once the jam is becoming sticky, continue cooking for 10-15 mins more, stirring frequently so that it doesn't catch and burn. It should now look like thick, bubbling lava. Cool slightly, transfer to sterilised jars, then leave to cool completely. Keeps for 3 months in a cool, dark cupboard – refrigerate once opened.

Comments, questions and tips
I love this so much, have made it a few times for work colleagues and keep getting more requests! Much better than shop bought chilli sauce and you can vary the heat if you like....I wrapped jars with different coloured ribbons according to heat....red, green, etc. good Christmas presents! Just be prepared for a lot of empty jars coming back for refills!
Absolutely amazing! I agree that it took more than 50 minutes as it took me about 90 minutes, but it still tasted amazing. I found it only started turning into a jam as such once it was cooling, but it tastes fab. I also found that as it cooled it reduced in spice which was a good thing cos at first it was very spicy! Thank you for this recipe, definitely going to make this for a hamper x
I made this last night and love it! I used 6 large peppers and only 8 chillis as i didnt want to make it too hot! it is a little on the sweet side and may reduce the sugar next time but once it is combined with something savoury it actually doesnt taste as sweet.
It didnt take as long as some people to thicken, I think around 1hr 20mins.
Highly recommend this to any beginner its extremley easy to make. I will definately be making it again!

Fantastic recipe! Mine had a real kick to it but I have a family of spice lovers so that wasn't a problem. Gave little jars of this away as part of Christmas hampers and it went down a storm!
Really good with cold meats and cheeses but also yummy mixed with a bit of soy and mirin to make a dipping sauce or just slathered on top of a piece of chicken or salmon and baked for an easy dinner.
I also found it needed cooking for around two hours to get a jammy consistency.
I thought I'd lost this recipe because I'd forgotten to put it in my binder. I made this 2 years ago for Christmas and loved it SO much. Only just found a shopping list from that Christmas and googled the ingredients to find this recipe again. I can't tell you how happy I am I found this. It is addictive and amazing!

A Corruption Observatory
I want to share this idea for some feedback. I'm working on the design of a corruption observatory. I'm not a corruption expert (though I work with some). To make it short, you feed information to develop a conversation which will turn into education. This will then raise the level of integrity of the people. I argue that by educating people about what corruption is, what integrity is, and about the processes and structure of the system you can fight corruption. I want to encourage Open Data (which has been a pain in the ass) as a tool to fight corruption. I believe you have to visualize the system. Everything has to be transparent. Here enters the concept of the panopticon, and a bit of crowdsourcing the search for the corrupt.
By talking about integrity I want to change the mood of the conversation from pursuing the corrupt to encouraging Integrity. When our conversation is about corruption our problem is corruption. By changing the conversation towards integrity we start talking about the solution instead of the problem. I want the conversation to be sort of the one we are having right now. Plus a wiki, and some conversation periodical meetings.
The education part is the one that I'm having more trouble with. Right now I see it as a product of the conversations about the information. I need to work on this more.
This is more or less the idea, I'm happy to converse about it and answer any points that are not clear or expand about my thoughts about it. I'm interested in practical stuff. I have been bombarded about the theory of corruption enough already.

Apr 2 2012: I think ethics would be a useful edition to compulsory schooling, but i dont know about teaching out corruption. I have to say that is a weak spot. Teaching people about corruptiion may in fact end up teaching those corruptioon prone individuals how to get away with it, since they have a better understanding about corruption and how it is detected and prevented, offsetting the gains you have made.
I like the cultural change you advocate though. Promoting integrity rather than focusing on condemning corruption. I think this is a powerful tool that will help people feel more willing to report suspicions and more willing to resist the temptations of corruptions, without giving powerful tools to those pronne to corruption.
I dont quite get the crowdsourcing bit, but i like the idea of transparency. More of that is nice
Apr 2 2012: The idea is to teach about being integrate. I understand your point about teaching corruption. I agree that you can't teach how to be corrupt. Or you should not encourage them take advantage of the flaws in the system.
Still you have to let people know what is good and what is bad. I'm not worried that teaching about corruption would give the 'corruption prone' tools to behave wrong. The good guys will also know how this people are doing wrong and develop the remedy. It is an arms race. The nice thing about openness and transparency is that we have a diversity of individuals involved. I'm one of those who think that good will prevail.

You should read Cucumber Quest because it's a rad webcomic that anyone can enjoy.
OOC: Well; it was shut down for weeks. They probably would have thought he would be unconscious until he died, but he was actually completely awake throughout every part of the experiment, even once they shut it down. This is a while after they decided to end it (the day after everyone who was working on him left to find something else within the Project for an occupation), and, once he got up, he spent all his effort throughout the entire day to tear the cage open.
OOC: Since it seems everyone is in the pokemon center. Time to make my return. Acie and the others are back.
A small group of "humans" walked out of some rooms in the center. One of the humans we notably very clothed, not showing any skin.
Knight stiffened at the scent of other merges. He looked at a group of humans in the center, taking note of the scent coming from them.
The others in the group followed Knight's gaze and understood the look he gave towards Ace.
OOC: Hello, back. Had stuff to do.
"I need you to help me..." he struggled for a word, "...Negotiate. Unaggressively. Which means I will need you in your human form so you don't go nuts. No offense." Ozias then appeared to be smacked in the face by an invisible force. "Whoa!"
OOC: Stuff was, well, mostly homework. Invisible force was Joseph because biiiiig Outrages, which means biiiiig anger. Ozias was talking to Lilith.
Psy-S hurried up to Psy-I. "Happiness. What an interesting principle."
Psy-S took the bag. "Thanks!" it held out a black piece of clothing, analyzing it, "I like this colour a lot."

"Should I put them on now?"
"Probably," Kuroi told her, "Better sooner than later." Psy-S nodded, and ran outside, behind the Center to where Ozias had been, taking several items of clothing out.
It quickly figured out how to use a belt, and that it needed one for its jet black pants (obviously in the American sense). The vest, though, was a perfect fit. But what really did the job was the coat. It was three-quarter length, black (like the rest of its clothes, Psy-S had a favorite colour, it seemed) and comfortable to wear. Psy-S almost left the other clothes behind, but then realised that they could be of use to its siblings. It packed the garments back in the bag, and walked into the Pokémon Center again. "How do I look?" it asked Psy-I.
Joseph headed far down. He ran quickly, but carefully. Eventually, he arrived just above the 4th floor. All the doors suddenly opened at once; security guards began checking all the stairways and floors. Fortunately, the guard who headed out of the next door was looking down the next flight. He thought of sneaking into the room on the floor, but he saw multiple security guards on it, looking and searching around, while workers in lab coats were either talking with them, asking what was going on, walking and looking around occasionally, or focusing on their work.
That doesn't look good; I guess I'd better try the next floor down.
He thought quickly and touched the sentry's left shoulder for half a second as he quickly came around the side, hoping to get the security watch to look back up the stairs; surprisingly, the guard looked directly to his right, anticipating that someone would be there on the opposite side. Joseph thought for a terse moment again, then dodged around past the left quickly before the watchman looked down the stairs again.
"Hey; wait!" the guard said to the Merge, but by the moment he began to think about saying it, Joseph was already down the next set of stairs.
The next one noticed him as soon as he turned and headed down the next staircase. The guard gripped him by his shirt for a moment with the given opportunity, but, fortunately, he managed to get away by nearly tripping the security member up with his leg in a similar technique to a sweep and running away while the lookout adjusted to regain balance; Joseph rolled into the room. Not as many people were looking out on the floor; for every guard in this room, at least 1.5 were on the above floor. Still, everyone started looking at him and yelling out loud; a few people moved out into the hallway to try to stop him, but hardly anyone really did anything which was actually significant.
He looked around desperately to search for an exit. There was another set of stairs, but then he noticed how a few securitymen were all looking around near it. As they noticed him and began to draw their firearms, he realized he had a couple of options: he could either jump out the window 40 or so feet above the ground and likely perish, or he could try to make it down the staircase past these obstacles and probably get shot and killed... or he could get caught and either be locked up again or die without even trying to do anything anyways.

Twenty-eight days more to go and the Oscars will again recognize the best films, actors, and filmmakers of the year. The 82nd Academy Awards is set to air this March 7, 2010. And hosting another historic event are two of the most popular names in the industry—Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.
Bill Mechanic and Adam Shankman, Oscar telecast producers, believe that they are the perfect pair. Steve Martin is happy to have the privilege to co-host the awards night with Alec Baldwin. As we continue with the countdown to the 82nd Academy Awards, Oscars 2010, let us tackle a bit of an overview of these hosts.
Having hosted the 73rd Academy Awards, Martin received a hosting nomination for Emmy for it. He's considered to be a diversified actor as he can act, make people laugh, write, and create playwright. He has also been a producer. Some of his published materials include his novel Shopgirl and the children's book Born Standing Up.
Baldwin, on the other hand, is an award-winning actor himself. He graduated in New York University and he stars in the infamous TV series 30 Rock. For this show, he has received an Emmy award as best actor in years 2008 and 2009. Baldwin has also authored a book entitled Promise to Ourselves.
This pair alone is a reason enough to watch Oscars 2010 live. Moviegoers want to watch the 82nd Academy Awards live stream online to get 'on the dot' updates. If you're one of them, you might as well bookmark this page to get Oscar 2010 updates when you want it. After 28 days, Oscars will surely rock our TV sets especially with the comic lines between this pair.

I like the name! And I call this obsession…
Except when I was a kid some called me "Wyle coyote", "Whale", "Y.L." and other miscellaneous nicknames or mispronunciations.
When you say the name Wael to an English speaker, they don't really hear what you are saying. Their ear does not recognize the hamza or the soft consonant at the end. Half the time they think I am saying, "What" and they repeat their question.
But there was at least one sahabi with this name, and it also has an interesting meaning. It is a very ancient pre-Islamic Arabic name, coming from the heart of the Arabian peninsula, and meaning protector or rescuer. Some say that it also means returning for shelter, or seeking shelter.
If you search on Google for "wael" you'll get:
* an internationally renowned Egyptian journalist, blogger and human rights activist named Wael Abbas.
* a Syrian actor named Wael Sharaf.
* a famous Lebanese singer named Wael Kfoury.
* and others including web developers, scientists, a Palestinian translator, an art gallery owner… and some strange guy who started a website called Zawaj.com, writes about Islamic subjects and does martial arts… ha ha.
(Source: meaning-of-names.com)
I am so sick of hearing people say:
My ex boyfriend did this, or didn't do enough of that.
All the guys around here are players, my job sucks, my wife sucks, my husband doesn't help, my kids are needy…I am tired, I am broke, I am fat, I am unhappy.
I have been a magnet for these…
Investing in an entrepreneur is a lot like
falling in love. At fi rst, we just see the best;
only later do flaws and failings become
apparent. No one's perfect, of course. But
sometimes our partners' weaknesses in
combination with our own constitute a
deadly cocktail.
It would be disingenuous to say I have
no regrets. This failure was dearly bought.
It was a severe blow to both my ego and my
bottom line. But the lessons I learned about
setting boundaries and establishing rules of
engagement were invaluable. I now invest
more eff ectively in stocks and start-ups, as
well as in people and their dreams.
Failure was worth every cent.

Quick Service Restaurants Move As Fast As the Internet
MUY Brands relies on Interface and Cisco for quicker service, lower costs and improved security
View the Cisco MUY Success Story
Long before founding MUY Brands, a large group of Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, KFC and Long John Silver's restaurants, Jim Bodenstedt knew two things: money should be carefully managed and he was destined later in life to run a restaurant. Bodenstedt got serious about money management around age 15 when his grandparents left him a couple thousand dollars which he invested in the stock market and parlayed for profit between high school classes. A few years later, just shy of 18, he knew enough about money to manage a McDonald's restaurant. Today, Bodenstedt runs a restaurant empire totaling 226 locations, one of the largest Yum! Brands franchise groups.
As the second youngest graduate of McDonald's Hamburger University management program, at the age of 19 Jim Bodenstedt became an early adopter of the franchise model – which standardizes operations and enforces consistency. Today, he achieves those goals with a standard wide area network design from Interface (ISS) which connects the ISS Data Center to a Cisco Integrated Service Router in every store.Challenge
"Duplication is very important in our business," says Bodenstedt. "It's consistency of platforms across all restaurants, across all groups, allowing our managers to have consistency in how we run our business."Solution
Behind the scenes, the Interface Secure Managed Cloud provides a wide-area network that unifies IP address schemes across store groups, and supports PCI compliance at each store with a common VLAN scheme to protect data integrity. Store managers don't bother knowing those details, but they do enjoy cloud powered improvements in store systems, like the ability to create weekly profit and loss statements that automatically roll up to district managers.Results
"We take that P&L at the end of the period from the store and match it against the P&L from accounting. Then we discuss why we have any variances in what was reported and what our internal accounting thinks is there," says Bodenstedt. "So we get to be better managers about knowing what our business is."
Executive Summary
Muy Brands, LLC
To consolidate broadband vendors and costs, to standardize network design and hardware
Cisco based Cloud Services connecting Cisco Integrated Service Routers supporting VPN, voice-over-IP and IP based Alarm Monitoring
Bodenstedt is an advisory board member on Yum! Brand's Franchise Technology Committee. When he challenged Interface to provide more benefit from its Cisco powered Secure Managed Cloud he was soon delighted to save nearly 35-thousand dollars per month in phone lines and service charges with Interface Digital Voice. Before the transition to voice-over-IP, Bodenstedt says fear of toll charges made managers hesitate before using the phone for conference calls and other business — but no longer.
"And now it (Interface Digital Voice) flattens that cost down for our managers and it's nothing to just pick up the phone and dial an extension and you're talking to whoever is on the other end with no toll charge, and that's very exciting for us."
MUY's network of stores is constantly growing. But CIO Dan Karam says the network based cost savings he achieves after taking over those stores never fails to amaze him.
"We put Interface Digital Voice in some newly acquired Pizza Hut stores each with 7-8 phone lines," says Karem. "It allowed us to cancel a total of 71 phone lines in 13 stores saving about $4,000 a month... Now that's real money!"
Conference calls are essential to MUY's Pizza Hut restaurants. Each Saturday store managers gather on a conference bridge to perform what Bodenstedt calls 'Stand and Deliver', a competitive analysis of who performed and who didn't on Friday night, the busiest night of the week. Competition on the calls helps reduce Friday's speed of pizza deliveries, which Bodenstedt says improves service overall the rest of the week. He says an improved phone system plays a role supporting his operational vision.
"It's not the broadband or router that makes the magic happen. It's using the technology, using the broadband that makes the magic happen. The benefit doesn't appear automatically. It takes work to do it, but there's a lot of things we can leverage when we have the technology."
The Interface Secure Managed Cloud also supports a vital mission at MUY to take paper out of day-to-day operations. "Paperless is a game changer for us," Karem says. ''For example, when we hire a new employee, there's a 40-plus page new hire packet that has to be sent to the office, not to mention the cost of ink and toner if it's faxed… just a lot of paper moving around. Now we use a multifunction device to scan, fax or print, then securely email the necessary pages back to the office."
Another paperless initiative at MUY is direct deposit for paychecks. Instead of opening an envelope to see the amount of their paychecks - employees use the store computer to view their pay stub online and email to others - spouses, or ex spouses for child support or alimony. Karem says by having Secure Managed Broadband in the store, he knows that activity will be partitioned by VLANs from business data.
"Employees can use the PC for approved tasks and training, and all the while we don't have to worry about security issues. For Interface to bring that service to the store is a huge, huge, huge deal!"
"We put Interface Digital Voice in some newly acquired Pizza Hut stores, each with 7-8 phone lines. It allowed us to cancel a total of 71 phone lines in 13 stores saving about $4,000 a month... Now that's real money!"
- Dan Karam, CIO of MUY Brands
The Interface Secure Managed Cloud also makes important improvements to customer experience like faster service delivery. Before broadband adoption in the stores, KFC measured lengthy wait times, as much as 30 seconds, to process credit card transactions. That same credit card swipe takes close to three seconds via the Interface Secure Managed Cloud. Faster moving lines and better customer service are important to Bodenstedt. But equally important, he says, is data security.
"And the key is that we operate on a private network cloud with all the PCI requirements. It was important to me that it be private and managed. I was pleased to see that Interface was able serve all the areas and locations where I have restaurants and provide the service."
The Interface Secure Managed Cloud also improves the in-store protection of customers and employees with an IP based security alarm panel. Cloud based responses to alarm events can be as much as two minutes faster than response to a telephone based alarm system.
Interface will soon return to each MUY store to perform a router refresh with the Cisco 891 ISR. G2 Router features like Wide Area Applications Services (WAAS) will speed up newer store applications like Hiring Zone and Learning Zone, media rich ways to accept employment applications and train employees. Says Karem – "None of that stuff is possible without the Cisco router and secure managed broadband."
Nobody imagined web connected restaurants when Bodenstedt graduated from Hamburger University. But as successful as he's been, Bodenstedt is confident that technology and partners like Cisco and Interface will lead to something even better.
"We might celebrate success with where we are and how we got here. But I'm certain that not any of our leaders or anyone associated with Yum! is satisfied. They may be happy with the progress they've made. But everyone wants to do better. We need to try harder every day and be the best."About MUY Brands, LLC

Dollar General Corporation Adopts Interface Systems Managed Cloud Services to
Replace Traditional Service Providers
More than ever, retailers are using the Internet, and trusting the Internet, for business communications and to provide better customer service. As stores depend more on cloud-based services, they also face serious challenges for network availability and data security.
Cisco G2 Series integrated service routers meet these high standards and, as the leader in IP Security Services, Interface is the ideal partner to deliver a reliable and secure network.
Interface Systems (ISS) offers a business model and an array of managed services that make the value of Cisco routers, switches and wireless products affordable for retail, commercial and small business customers.
Executive Summary
Dollar General Corporation
Standardize in-store services and operations
Dollar General uses Interface Managed Cloud Services for its entire retail store network, which includes:
Dollar General Corporation, the largest discount retailer in the United States by number of stores, previously had hundreds of service providers delivering disparate network services. With Dollar General's rapid growth, Interface filled a need to standardize in-store services with a uniform network design.
In particular, Dollar General needs higher bandwidth and a new router in each store for wireless inventory tracking and point of sales reporting. The retailer also needs to support stricter data security standards for credit cards.Solution
After conducting extensive testing and an ROI analysis, Dollar General selected Interface Systems. The project converts security and communications systems from analog to digital – eliminating the expense of more than five thousand phone lines.
The ISS data and communications suite for Dollar General is based on the Cisco G2 Series 891 router. Services include Wide-area Network Management, PCI Compliance via Cisco IPS/IDS and Rogue Wireless Management, IP Alarm System Monitoring, Managed IP Video Surveillance, and Interface Digital Voice. This first-to-market suite of cloud based applications and management is delivered via Interface Secure Managed Broadband, a wide-area network design featuring advanced security services on the G2 891 Router and redundant network connections for failover and business continuity.
Interface makes it easy for Dollar General to attain the value of the Cisco 891 router by providing it as the foundation of its Secure Managed Cloud based service instead of a capital expense. In addition to providing broadband service and managing the router, Interface also provides Dollar General with network based store services like Cisco IPS/IDS and Cisco WAP management to support PCI Compliance. Interface leverages the network further with IP monitoring of physical security systems and by cutting expenses with voice over IP.
Dollar General uses Interface Managed Cloud Services for its entire retail store network, which includes approximately 9,500 locations. In addition, Dollar General opens about 50 new stores each month making this project one of the largest retail deployments of Cisco G2 891 series routers.
"Dollar General is one the first major retailers to embrace bundling these critical in-store services. This landmark decision signals a fundamental shift in how retailers are thinking about the value of their existing service provider relationships and the business opportunities provided with insight on demand. We are honored to be a part of Dollar General's business strategy." "
- Robert Aranda, Interface IP Division President
"This project began as an RFP for a land based store network to replace slower performing satellite dishes," said Jeff Frye, VP Sales and Marketing for Interface. "Interface emerged over other providers by adding value to the network. We converted an array of common store applications like alarm panels, DVRs and telephones to operate on the Cisco router which speeds up store operations and lowers communications costs."
"What Interface delivers for any single location or a large organization like Dollar General is the economy of vendor consolidation. Interface offers a 'single throat to choke' for billing and support," said Michael Shaw, CEO of Interface, "which combined with system standardization are huge improvements in efficiency."
"Our best-in-class, Managed Cloud Bundle provides Dollar General with a cost-saving and scalable technology template that is second to none," said Robert Aranda, IP Division President of Interface. "Dollar General is one the first major retailers to embrace bundling these critical in-store services.

DiPasqua Subway Sandwich Shops Improve Service and Safety With Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services
DiPasqua Enterprises is one of the largest restaurant groups in the Subway sandwich chain with more than 95 locations in Florida and annual revenues in excess of 50 million dollars. Consistency and standardized operations are essential to creating a great customer experience, which helps grow the business. That's why DiPasqua Enterprises turned to Ideacom Solutions Group, a VOIP Service provider and an Interface Managed Service Channel Partner, with three challenges: consolidate vendors, standardize store operations and better protect employees, customers and credit card data.
Executive Summary
End User: DiPasqua Enterprises
Standardize in-store services and operations
Interface Managed Cloud Services include:
DiPasqua found an answer for all three challenges with Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services, which include Internet Provisioning and Router Management, support for PCI Compliance, Network Vulnerability Scanning and IP Alarm System Monitoring. This first-to-market suite of cloud based store services is delivered via Interface Secure Managed Broadband, a network design featuring the advanced security services of the Cisco 881 Generation 2 Router and a redundant 3G WAN connection for failover and business continuity. In addition to these services Ideacom Solutions Group integrated cost saving Voice-over-IP communications that take advantage of ISS's managed broadband circuit.Results
Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services unify design and delivery of store applications on a common platform, while making Ideacom Solutions Group the single point of contact for service. DiPasqua Enterprises enjoys improved protection of assets, employees, customers and data, while lowering operating costs. "Consolidating services is obviously more convenient," says DiPasqua CFO Mike Mackubin, "but consolidation also offers immediate cost savings."
"This project started as a minor crisis for me," says Mackubin. "We faced deadlines from our bank to meet stricter data security standards in the stores, and I frankly needed help from someone I could trust who had been through it before.

IDeACOM Solutions Group Builds Profit and Customer Value After Expanding Internet Business Services
Orlando based IDeACOM Solutions Group has a tradition as a provider of business communications systems, starting decades ago with the first hospital intercom systems and improving with the latest Internet based voice services. But keeping customers current with technology and growing a business require more than just waiting for the next best thing. So Ideacom Solutions Group principal Bob Giannone began searching for new products to help customers and boost sales.
Executive Summary
IDeACOM, Orlando
Ideacom resells and supports Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services, which include:
After conducting extensive research and ROI analysis, IDeACOM Solutions Group became a Managed Service Channel Sales Partner of Internet based business services from Interface Security Systems (ISS). The ISS data and communications suite includes Wide-area Network Provisioning and Management, support for PCI Compliance, Network Vulnerability Scanning and IP Alarm System Monitoring. This first-to-market suite of cloud based applications and management is delivered via Interface Secure Managed Broadband, a wide-area network design featuring the advanced security services of the Cisco 881 Generation 2 Router and a redundant 3G WAN connection for failover and business continuity.Results
IDeACOM Solutions Group's longtime customer, DiPasqua Enterprises, was a perfect fit for the suite of products provided by ISS. The DiPasqua Enterprise corporate office had been using IDeACOM Solutions Groups SIP trunking product to replace their costly local lines and were looking for ways to realize similar cost savings in their 99 Subway Sandwich locations in Central Florida. By eliminating a significant number of analog lines, standardizing broadband and security services, delivering PCI compliance and standardization on the hardware deployment and security policies at each store to support these activities IDeACOM Solutions Group was able to bring significant cost savings to DiPasqua Enterprises. The Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services® was a perfect fit. Giannone chose ISS to provide each store's broadband connection because ISS uses a standard Cisco 881 ISR with 3G backup to provide always-on connectivity for credit card transactions. In addition, ISS uses its managed broadband connection to improve burglar and panic alarm service with free installation of a new IP based alarm panel with GSM backup to guard against line cuts.
"Interface Secure Managed Cloud Services® improve store operations for DiPasqua," says Giannone, "and increase the security of customers, employees and data. It was a simple set of benefits to share with my customer for quick acceptance. Best of all, the conversation enabled me to provide multiple services in one package, while giving my customer the benefit of consolidated billing."
"My partnership with Interface gives me added resources to build and maintain customer loyalty."
- Bob Giannone, IDeACOM Solutions Group
Going forward, Giannone remains in front of DiPasqua as the first line responder for service and support, creating ongoing value. "My customer relies on me more than ever," he says. "And my partnership with Interface gives me added resources to build and maintain customer loyalty."About Interface Security Systems, LLC

Foucault no Fubar Pick
Kris Foucault (pronounced FOO-coe) is an emerging talent for the 2009 NHL Entry Draft. It's been a whirlwind season for him, from Canmore to Kootenay to Calgary and climaxing in the post-season where he is running with the best players in the junior game.
Redline Report gives us a nice update on him as a human interest story: "Swift Current (WHL) drafted him in the fifth round — so not a real high-end Bantam prospect. Swifty played him in a handful of games as a 16-year-old, thought he wasn't going to be a player, so they traded him to Kootenay for a sixth round Bantam pick. Kootenay played him sparingly last year and he didn't do much (3 assists in 33 GP), and they cut him early this year. So in September they sent him to the Canmore Eagles of the AJHL where he instantly went nutso on the scoresheet — 41 points in 32 games. So in January, Kootenay wants to bring him back but he basically says "not interested, I'm staying in Canmore." Kootenay traded his rights to Calgary (Foucault is from Calgary) and he immediately reported to the Hitmen. And now he's got 15 points in 19 games with the Hitmen. Went from being a guy who wasn't even going to be a bad junior player to very possibly an NHL draft pick now. It's like he's the Robert Johnson of junior hockey — he must have taken his stick to a crossroads near Canmore and met the Devil at midnight."
For those who don't know, Robert Johnson is the guy Led Zeppelin should be sending all of their cheques to in exchange for the riffs that sold millions of albums. Foucault is 6.0, 190 and a December 1990. He has 10 goals in 13 playoff games, playing with Kyle Bortis and Brett Sonne much of the time. That's some high octane linemates right there. In junior terms, more Physical Graffiti than Presence.
He seems to be taking the attention he's getting in stride, saying "I have to thank my linemates. They're feeding me the puck, getting the puck to the net and I've kind of learned to just go to those areas and the puck is going to end up there."
He is ranked #96 in the final Central Scouting Rankings, meaning he'd be earmarked for about 130-145 in the NHL draft (North American and European players are not listed together). However, he's having a nice run late and could move up some NHL lists.

Legion Theatre
No one has favorited this theater yet
The Legion Theatre opened in April of 1932. It seated 403. Located in a popular place for Meramec River float trippers. The theater maintained a small town atmosphere and most of its business was dones on the week ends. It mostly ran a double bill program.
The Legion wasn't anything spectacular as far as design but was one of the only forms of entertainment in the small town. The theater closed in 1966. The theater building itself is still standing and operating as cafe.

Lots of people hate on Damien and I'm not really sure why because chances are he will shit on you in real life. I'm glad there are still a FEW people out there still not giving a fuck and just doing what they like.
Over on Skatelife.tv Damien goes off on a rant about how he left Xsjado and it's right up there with the Angie Walton Mushroomblading podcast! He goes off on some people in this and it's great to get a glimpse of how things run behind the scenes. The rant is really really long but definitely worth the read. Check out the article here.
It's no news that the Santee guys are out of their damn minds, and I love it. Nick has been loyal to Remz for years now so it's no surprise they gave him a skate. The song they made for this is just amazing and the skate has a fucking keg on it, win win. I really love Remz but I kind of wish they would slim the overall skate down a bit because the days of big bulky skates is ending. ( I hope) Whether you like the skate or even Nick wood for that matter, you have to admit that the creation of this song is definitely a giant win.

To make an appointment:
You will need to bring:
What to Expect
This will be an office consultation so you are permitted to wear deodorant and powders as mammograms and surgery will not be performed at this time. First, your health history will be taken by a nurse. As this is being done, Dr. Martucci will review your mammogram, ultrasound, and other imaging studies. She will then review your history and results of your imaging studies with you. At the end of your visit, she will share in detail her recommendations and treatment plan. All of her findings will then be communicated to your referral doctor.
About Breast Health

It is hard to pick up any magazine or newspaper without reading something about breast cancer. You may have heard that your lifetime risk for developing breast cancer is 1 in 8. Let's put that into perspective:

1 of 217
Less than 1%

BCTC celebrated its 75th Anniversary and officially dedicated its Newtown Campus on Thursday, September 4, 2014 with a community event that celebrated the past and future of the institution.
As BCTC wraps up its 9th Latino Leadership and College Experience Camp (LLCEC) this year, the success of the program is evident by the number of former participants volunteering to help new campers find the same support they did.

Wow.... I think this month has been the most epic one so far this year. If you were in Chen's position would you think it would have been worth "buying" the phone?
**** steve jobs. As soon as my att contract is up, im ditching them and the iphone. That bad *** sprint phone looks cool.
This news make iPhone 4G more popular, and they can sell more millions and millions......
Has anyone noticed this photo was stolen from a comic post by tsatryan
I think Chen should sue the police force, it has happened before, for the whole journalists-can't-be-raided-with-a-warrant thingy
i dont think apple purposefully did this to get more publicity. I know they can be strict but really purposefully get someone in trouble and make them pay all this and have police raid their house i mean common, if anything this just makes people hate apple even more haha
So with all this going on can we assume those leaked photos are real? Is this an elaborate scheme or conspiracy? I say we call in Mulder and Scully!
Only Apple's shady legal team could push for a warrant on these grounds.
Anyone else find it ironic that they made sure to confiscate the Motorola Droid phone in that seizure?
^^^Nice pic haha. Apple is like a big crybaby "Waaah he stole my new toy!" "Oooh I stole this guy's toy, now im going to sell it and call it revolutionary!"
Its not Apple pulling the strings now. Apple can't request a search warrant. All Apple can do is file a complaint, and cooperate with the DA on the case.
Its not a plain everyday iPhone, we're talking TRADE SECRETS.
Jason Chen was in possession of a STOLEN prototype iPhone and decided it would be a brilliant idea to plaster it all over the internet. I'd be willing to bet they seized the computers to see what Chen had done with the iPhone while it was in his possession and if he tried to contact the known owner (Gray Powell).
The sheild law only applies when they want to know who the source is.
