--> Beautiful People
I haven't been on here in a while, because I've failed. I've gained everything back and I don't know what to do.
I want to lose weight but, I don't know how. I joined a sport in highschool, it was going great, I was eating healthy but the weight wasn't coming off, so…I gave up. And, now I need to lose weight, prom is coming up and summer. I don't want to be this big anymore.
So, my question to you is, is there any way to lose 60 pounds in three months…the healthy way? I want this for myself so bad, and I'm willing to work for it. But, these extra pounds need to come off. It's time.

I've been extremely busy lately which is why I haven't updated the last few weeks. But, I've made significant progress and can't wait to share it with you all! I still have a long ways to go but, I'm more determined then ever to lose this weight and keep it off for good.(:

XG Sciences and Oak Ridge collaborate to develop titanium-graphene composites
XG Sciences, Inc. announced that it had launched a joint program with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to develop a titanium-graphene composite using an advanced powder metallurgy manufacturing process.
Titanium is an important structural material for a variety of industrial, commercial, and military applications due to its light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. However, utilization of titanium in many applications is limited due to its low thermal conductivity. Graphene-based materials, with excellent thermal conductivity, would be a perfect reinforcement material for improving both thermal and mechanical properties of titanium. XG Sciences has the capability to mass-produce graphene nanoplatelets in high volume, while ORNL has unique capabilities for low-temperature powder metal processing. Together, the two organizations see exciting opportunities to create advanced titanium-graphene composites.

We Need to Listen to the Founders and Stop the Forever War.
Sep. 29, 2014 1:04 pm
By Thom Hartmann A...
Just a little over a year ago during his speech at the National Defense University here in Washington, D.C., President Obama talked about winding down Bush's War on Terror. But as American bombers continue to strike against ISIS in Iraq and now Syria, it now looks like the War on Terror will be with us for years to come. And that's a really dangerous thing for our democracy.

Storms brought an end to a late summer heat wave in much of southeast Michigan during which high temperatures reached the mid-90s for a second straight day.The National Weather Service says Lambertville in southeastern Michigan's Monroe County was the state's hot spot at 95 degrees Wednesday. It says the temperature reached 93 at Monroe, Three Rivers, Troy and Ypsilanti, while Detroit's high was 92.Severe thunderstorms that pushed through the area in the evening dropped Detroit's temperature to 71 degrees by 8 p.m. Wednesday but also knocked out power to at least 60,000 DTE Energy Company customers.

Southeast of Nordkapp the landscape is a relentless expanse of barren plateaux, mountains and ocean. Occasionally a determined village relieves the monotony with commanding views over the fjords that slice deep into the mainland, but generally there is little for the eyes of most visitors. Nor is there much of anything to actually do in what are predominantly fishing and industrial settlements, and there are few tangible attractions beyond the sheer impossibility of the chill wilderness.
The E6 weaves a circuitous course across this vast territory, hugging the Finnish border for much of its length. The only obvious target is the Sámi centre of Karasjok, 270km from Nordkapp and 220km from Hammerfest and easily the region's most interesting town. Frankly, there's not much reason to push on further east unless you're intent on picking up the Hurtigruten coastal boat as it bobs along the remote and spectacular shores of the Barents Sea. Among the Hurtigruten's several ports of call, perhaps the most diverting is Kirkenes, 320km to the east of Karasjok at the end of the E6 and near the Russian frontier: if any European town comes close to defining remoteness then this surely must be it.
Finally, accommodation is very thin on the ground, being confined to a handful of the larger communities. Reservations, therefore, are strongly advised. Campsites are more frequent and usually have cabins for rent, but they are mostly stuck in the middle of nowhere.Read More
Dark times: witchfinding in Finnmark
Dark times: witchfinding in Finnmark
Finnmark was long known to medieval Christians as Ultima Thule – the end of the world – and legend has it that the road to hell was a small, unpaved one set out towards the Varanger peninsula, presided over by devils and dark knights. After paganism was outlawed and the Black Death decimated local populations in the late 1300s, the Scandinavian kingdoms exhibited marked intolerance towards anyone harbouring anti-Christian tendencies. Although the Church had long regarded the extremes of Finnmark as the realm of the devil, witchfinding only took a hold in the 1620s – half a century or so later than the rest of Europe – when, it was alleged, a coven set up shop in a cave on the edge of Vardø. Over the next sixty years, Norway indicted 135 "witches" found in and around the town, and burned 91 of them alive at the stake – a huge number considering the size of the population.

4 Stocks Under $10 Making Big Moves
Artio Global Investors
Artio Global Investors (ART) is an asset management company that provides investment management services to institutional and mutual fund clients. This stock is trading up 2.9% to $2.07 in recent trading.
Today's Range: $1.98-$2.1152-Week Range: $1.72-$5.26 Volume: 130,000 Three-Month Average Volume: 216,677 From a technical perspective, ART is spiking higher here right above some near-term support at $1.91 to $1.88 with decent volume. This move is quickly pushing shares of ART within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit if ART manages to take out its 50-day moving average of $2.09 and then more overhead resistance at $2.11 with high volume. At last check, ART has hit an intraday high of $2.11 and volume is just a bit below its three-month average action of 216,677 shares. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in ART as long as it's trending above $1.88, and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 216,677 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then ART will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $2.44 to $2.70. It's even possible for ART to tag its 200-day moving average of $2.93 off that breakout.

We could say the Blackhawks rebounded with a convincing 4-1 victory over the Red Wings on Saturday night. The most accurate statement would be the Blackhawks reappeared with a convincing 4-1 victory.
The Wings still hold a 3-2 advantage in the series but as they return to Detroit they will be looking to recapture momentum.
In Game 5 the Blackhawks put forth the most complete effort of any of the 10 games played so far in the post season. The better players for Chicago had a say in the win and so did the supporting cast. The Hawks power play awoke from deep sleep with two goals, and the passing was greatly improved from recent efforts.
One of the most important factors was the Blackhawks defensemen played well as a unit. The biggest advantage the Hawks have over the Red Wings or any club left in the playoffs is the depth on their blue line. To a man they played solid defense and were able to shrug off the Detroit forecheck and pass the puck effectively.
The Blackhawks looked like a high tempo puck possession team in Game 5.
The Chicago defense starts their offense and that happens by using quick outlet passes. When those passes are crisp and accurate the forwards can use their speed and skill to generate scoring.
Even though the game was even on the scoreboard through the midpoint of the second period the Hawks had a lot of offensive zone time. It's difficult to chase and eventually the team defense faded for the Red Wings.
The turning point in the game came in the middle frame when left wing Drew Miller hooked Jonathan Toews in the offensive zone. It wasn't a good penalty as Toews wasn't in a scoring position. Miller stopped moving his feet and hooked Toews, it was careless and costly. Andrew Shaw then provided a screen on Jimmy Howard as he tipped in a Duncan Keith shot to give the Hawks a power play goal, and the lead for good.
The United Center crowd erupted and the resolve started to fade in the Red Wings.
Slightly over two minutes later Justin Abdelkader cross checked Patrick Kane one too many times for no good reason and was sent to the penalty box. At 15:47 Toews placed a shot toward the top shelf of the net from down near the goal line. Toews finally got some luck as the puck hit Howard in the mask and went in to give the Hawks a 3-1 lead.
In Game 5 it was the Red Wings who looked like the slower team and took undisciplined penalties. It was Detroit that couldn't sustain pressure and play an effective game. When Miler was whistled for hooking the shots were 27-18 in favor of Chicago. From that point on the Blackhawks outshot the Red Wings 18 to 8. The shot difference for the entire contest was 45-26, and was an accurate depiction of a dominant effort.
The Hawks were not only getting shots on Howard but they were seldom square into his chest. He was forced to move side to side and the Blackhawk forwards were aiming low. This not only made Howard work harder but also his defensemen. The Hawks generated scoring chances and rebound opportunities and didn't make many saves easy on Howard.
Joel Quenneville has been under scrutiny by me and many others for being outcoached. My thinking is still the same concerning splitting up the third line but as long as those players contribute it might not matter as much. Quenneville changed things around last night but this time everyone was on the same page.
Two of the most noticeable Hawks were Shaw and Bryan Bickell, both recorded three hits on the night. They did it the right way and stayed out the penalty box. Bickell in particular came up with a couple of bone crunching checks and set a physical tone.
Bickell was on a line with Marian Hossa, who also played a big game, and Michal Handzus. Shaw was centering for Brandon Saad and Viktor Stalberg, who wasn't noticeable in a good way.
The Blackhawks defense was tinkered with as Brent Seabrook got out of the dog house and played a fine game. Seabrook was paired with his old partner Keith as they had 23:20 and 23:48 of ice time respectively. Just behind the Hawks top pair with 22:38 of playing time was Johnny Oduya who had a strong outing and the same can be said of Niklas Hjalmarsson. Quenneville relied on those four to carry most of the load but Nick Leddy and Michal Rozsival were effective when called upon as well.
Toews has to feel more confident after finally denting the twin. He was teamed with Patrick Kane and Patrick Sharp and each were credited with four shots on goal. That line was a dominant force on many shifts and as long as players like Shaw, who potted two goals can be big contributors the offense should stay potent.
Corey Crawford was confident in net and outplayed Howard who finally appeared human. The Hawks made it difficult on Howard and Crawford's mates did their part to lessen his work load.
The Blackhawks will hope home ice can tip this series in their favor but first it will take the same focus and effective play on Monday night. Hawk fans will be hoping a Game 7 can take place back at the United Center on Wednesday.

Head on over to ChrisPictures.com for all the latest Chris Brown pictures, including photos submitted by fellow CBWeb visitors!
According to R&B singer Brandy, Chris Brown has respect for his elders, including the "Long Distance" singer.
"Wow. Chris Brown is a fan. That's so sweet," says Brandy.
Sitting down with Rap-Up recently, Brandy goes on to say that she loves Crihanna, the nickname for Chris Brown and Rihanna's relationship.
"Every time I see Chris Brown, he tells me songs that have never been on any of my albums. He tells me songs that have been online or that you have to find, like Brandy's lost records—records that you would have to Google, that are not on iTunes—and it's like, 'Wow. Chris Brown is a fan."
Brandy, who released her first album in several years titled "Human" in 2008, says Rihanna listens to her 2004 album "Afrodisiac" a lot.
Brandy's "Human" peaked at #15 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart.
For more on Brandy pick up this month's issue of Rap-Up Magazine.

Chris Brown is almost done with his European tour, so it's back to the states — but his return home doesn't mean he's going to be slowing down anytime soon. The party animal is hosting his own All-Star Week bash at Club Rain on Saturday, February 14th.
All the stars will not be on the court when NBA All-Star Week hits Phoenix.
Power 98.3 is hosting an All-Star Week Takeover, giving fans a chance to party with the likes of Ludacris, Chris Brown and Busta Rhymes in what the station promises will be the "hottest" parties Arizona's ever seen.
The parties kick off Thursday, Feb. 12, with Baby Bash at Club Rain and Young Jeezy further north at Sugardaddy's. On Saturday, Feb. 14, it's R&B smoothie Chris Brown at Club Rain – on Valentine's Day, no less – and Ludacris at Sugardaddy's. On Sunday, Feb. 15, Busta Rhymes is at Club Rain.
More stars will be announced as we get closer to the game.
Details: Club Rain, 1420 N. Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale. 480-429-7674.
Sugardaddy's, 3102 N. Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale. 480-970-6556.
Head on over to Power 98.3 FM's website and cast your vote in their "Which celebrity All-Star party would you like to go to most?" poll. Currently (09:42 AM MST), Chris is tied with Ludacris with 25.2% beating out the likes of Busta Rhyhmes, Young Jeezy, and Nina Sky & Baby Bash.
UPDATE: Thanks to the attention we gave to the poll, Chris is now in the lead with 34.2% (12.:47 MST). Ludacris, whom he was tied with, has fallen to 17.8%; and Nina Sky/Baby Bash are now in second, right behind Chris with 24.5%. Keep voting!

Hello! Let me start off my introducing myself. My name is Dominique, and no I am not a girl like a lot of people seem to think I am. I guess that's the price you pay when you have a uni-sex name.
Come 05:26 MST today, 01.26.09, I will be 19 years old. Yes, 19. Now the natural question anyone would ask (at least any of the people I know) is: "What is a 19 year old
boyman doing running a Chris Brown website?"
Well, let me answer that question for you.
- I wanted to create the first Chris Brown fansite to ever exist on the internet.
- I wanted to promote Chris Brown online as much as possible.
(For the majority of the time that the Chris Brown i-Squad was open and online, Chris Brown Web was the number one referrer of new members)
- I wanted to create a fansite that was unlike any other fan created site in the world.
(Chris Brown Web has built a reputation as one of the most reliable news source for Chris Brown.
Now, my ultimate dream for Chris Brown Web was to basically wipe out the Jive Records official site (in a good way). However, that clearly has not happened — but do not get me wrong, Chris Brown Web has left it's mark, even if it were to die today, because we had enough influence to reshape that nearly all Chris Brown fans interact online. Now, you're probably wondering "How can they make such outlandish claims?!" Well, because we can back it up.
Within 3 years Chris Brown has managed to accomplish many things, but some things stick out over others.
- Chris Brown Boards (currently under redevelopment) has over 15,000 members!
- ChrisBrownWeb.com has has over 12,000,000 hits
- Offered EXCLUSIVE breaking news and dispelled countless rumors (1, 2, 3)
Chris Brown Web has been online since July 24, 2005, which makes us 3 years and 6 months old. Over a three year period we have had enough influence to get Chris Brown's management, label, and those that have worked with him.
Now, enough talking about what we did in the past. Let's focus on the future!
In 2009, Chris Brown Web will introduce an all new Chris Brown experience, created by fans for fans. Chris Brown Web has been secretly building new ways for fans to interact and communicate and we are looking to even make our presence known offline.
A time line will be released within a few weeks that outlines and previews all of the things that are going on at ChrisBrownWeb that you will be able to enjoy soon enough.
I promise you that you are not going to want to miss this. We are hoping to begin to work in cooperation with Chris' management in order to bring you even more ways to connect to Chris.
If you know our history, you would know that we have had a rocky relationship with them, at best – but we are hoping to turn that around. Now, in 2009, we have decided to take the site in a new direction that no other website, let alone fansite, has ever dreamed of.
I thank you so much for visiting, and taking time to read this post.
Chris Brown (Web) FOREVER!
Today, I'm taking a break from the behind the scenes stuff.
Because, it's my birthday!
See ya on Tuesday!
— Dominique
(officially 19 years young as of today)
It's Pop Week here at MTV News, and that means we're catching up with and getting to know everyone who's going to make a splash in pop music and culture over the next 12 months. Whether they're just arriving on the scene or are already the name on everyone's lips, these are the artists we expect big things from in 2009.
They make girls swoon and hearts beat faster. They're the guys that girls hang posters of on their bedroom walls. Whether they star in movies, make music or do a little bit of both, these guys aren't going anywhere in 2009. In fact, girls wouldn't know what to do with themselves if they did. Quite frankly, they are as nice to look at as they are talented in their various jobs. These are MTV News' Pop Week Male MVPs, and here's what 2009 will bring for them.
Chris Brown
In 2008, Chris Brown solidified his reputation as an R&B star, but in 2009 the singer and dancer will focus his efforts on his acting career. He has several films lined up, including "Phenom" and the T.I.-produced film "The Heist." "I'm playing a killer. I'm not going to give anything else away!" he told MTV News about the role. "It's a bank-robbing movie, so it's one of those action-packed films. You get a little different side of me in that movie. It will be very entertaining."

Every year of covering high school sports has its special moments. Watching teenagers win titles and reach milestones they will treasure all their lives is perhaps the most rewarding part of the job.
It's easy to get caught up in a playoff drive. It's inspiring to see players realize they can accomplish more as a team than a collection of individuals. It's thrilling to watch the truly gifted athlete who can take over a game.
In 2013, there were many of these moments, too many to list, but here are a few of the ones that stood out as I look back on my beats over the last year -- football, girls basketball and girls lacrosse.
Franklin football rolls to first state championship
Sometimes a team just gets rolling and there's a sense of destiny about it. Franklin's football team exuded that aura more and more as the playoffs went on this fall.
The season didn't start out with the words Franklin and state champion in the same breath. The Indians lost their season opener to Calvert Hall, 28-14, and after an impressive 42-6 win over Hereford, they fell to Perry Hall, 21-7. Heading into October, they were 2-2, but they would not lose again, building up steam with a 35-18 win over Milford Mill late in October.
Once the playoffs started, they cruised, building confidence as they beat Westminster, 49-14, and then Milford Mill, 49-14.
Quarterback Jacquez Adams had the offense humming, hitting targets such as his twin brother Jordan Adams or Steven Smothers. Darius Hinton led the rushing attack. The offensive and defensive lines proved stalwart and the defense, led by linebacker Bruce Damon, held the opposition to 42 points in four playoff games.
The Indians hit the road to Huntingtown in Calvert County for the state semifinals and routed the Hurricanes, 49-7. Jacquez Adams threw for 337 yards and six touchdowns.
On to states at M&T Bank Stadium and the No. 5 Indians were confident as ever. Jacquez Adams hit Smothers with a 27-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-20 late in the third quarter for a 14-7 lead over Linganore. Smothers just managed to get a foot inbounds as he fell on his back out the side of the end zone and that catch provided the offensive jolt to power a 20-7 victory and put the Class 3A state title plaque in the Reisterstown school's trophy case.
Marriotts Ridge girls lacrosse needs 4OT to shake archrival Mount Hebron
Thanks goodness for Zoe Stukenberg or I might still be standing on the sideline at Marriotts Ridge watching the No. 8 Mustangs scuffle with No. 7 Mount Hebron. The senior midfielder, now at Maryland, finally ended 13 minutes and 47 seconds of overtime by weaving through the defense to find an opening for the game winner and a 13-12 victory in the battle of Howard County rivals.
Stukenberg also assisted Jenna Kerr's buzzer-beating goal that tied the game at 12 in the first overtime to finish with six goals and three assists. Mount Hebron's Sam Brookhart, who gave Mount Hebron a 12-11 lead with 10.6 seconds left in the first overtime, matched Stukenberg with six goals.
The Mustangs also defeated the Vikings in the regional playoffs, this time 11-8, and went on to win the state Class 3A-2A title, 15-5, over Century. Stukenberg, the All-Metro Player of the Year, had three goals and six assists in the title game.
Douglass football slips by Edmondson in 2OT for Class 1A South regional title
The No. 14 Mighty Ducks came within about six inches of possible elimination from the playoffs in their regional championship game against Baltimore City rival Edmondson. In the second overtime, Edmondson went first and quarterback Daniel Williams made it inside the 1-yard line, but Douglass's Donyae Moody forced a fumble and the Ducks recovered.
In a game that featured 11 turnovers, Douglass made the most of that one, moving 10 yards for the score thanks in part to a late hit called against the Red Storm for plowing down Ducks quarterback Camron West. West then handed off to Da'Quan Alexander for the game-winning touchdown and a 20-14 victory that sent the Ducks (13-1) to the state tournament for the first time in school history.

Stonington – Police and school officials are cautioning parents of Stonington High School students of a possible scam in which letters they may receive offer them a chance to sign up for an honor society for $60.
Assistant Principal Mark Friese said Thursday evening that two parents reported receiving letters with the handwritten name of the school as the return address. Friese said the letters were not sent out by the school.
Friese said the school alerted parents Thursday to the letter. He said the school is looking into the source of the letters and will forward them to police.

PHILADELPHIA (WKZO) -- The Lions won Sunday 26-23 in overtime improving to 2-3 on the season. Detroit's defense kept the Lions in the game, despite early offensive struggles and 16 pentalties. Once again Detroit rallied late to send the game to overtime with Matt Stafford waking up in the 4th quarter to lead the Lions to victory.
Matthew Stafford has struggled early in games this season and that trend continued today against the Eagles. Stafford seems to come alive in the 4th quarter always giving the Lions a chance to win the game. He finished the day 22/45 for 311 yards 1 touchdown and 1 interception. On several occasions he missed open targets, sailing the passes over their heads. As the game went on, Stafford improved and finally seemed to sync up with his receievers.
The defense had a strong showing against the Eagles. Detroit had two interceptions, one fumble recovery and three sacks. The Lions defense held the Eagles to 13 points through the first three quarters when Detroit's offense was nowhere to be found.
Detroit will play their NFC North rival Chicago Bears next week Monday at 8:30pm.

Ultrasound is a painless, non-invasive procedure that uses sound waves to produce a visual image of the developing baby.
By looking at this visual image, the physician may be able to determine:
In most cases, a conductive jelly will be applied to the mother's abdomen and the transducer will be pressed onto your skin to obtain an image. The image will then appear on a monitor. A printout of your developing baby is provided to you.
Sometimes it is necessary to perform a transvaginal ultrasound. In this case, the transducer is passed into the vaginal canal and is rotated to obtain an image. You may experience some pressure during this procedure.
The Maternal-Fetal Medicine and Genetics Center at St. Mary's Hospital for Women & Children is the first in the Tri-State to offer Real Time 4-D ultrasound. While 3-D sonography can show the contours of the developing baby, 4-D sonography offers live action images of the baby. Our family-centered atmosphere allows for patients will view ultrasound images live on a 32 inch television screen.

Bikini Jeans: Wha???
These jeans are giving new meaning to the term "hip hugger."
Just as we are covering up in our winter scarves and wool tights, some women are actually taking their clothes off and walking around in jeans with underwear attached! Obviously, we will NOT be wearing these in this lifetime -- they wouldn't even look good on a svelte supermodel. Oh, and also, the jeans are supposedly only held up by the two strings on the side. The image of us wearing these (and what would happen) actually makes us laugh.
|Click here to see the
"Butt Cleavage" gallery
hate to be mean, but not all chicks who wear those jeans will look like that model. sorry, but you already see women wearing jeans 2 sizes small for them and its all muffin tops from there…..
My ex-husband would love to see these jeans on all women built like Christy Canyon, Traci Lords, Jenna Jameson. So they will appeal to some or most men. :)
Holy fugly on a stick!! ew.
Ewww…butt floss!
i think i'll get some, just don't tell my kids.

Solid State Drives and Forensic Troubles
With the increased use of Solid State Drives (SSD) in desktop and especially in laptop computers, computer forensic experts and the software they use are facing new challenges in getting data off of the drives that they were able to easily obtain from the older hard disk drives (HDD) type that are still the majority hard drive type.
Solid State Drives entered the main stream of public computing in 2007 with their inclusion in various netbook class devices by Dell and Asus among others. Initial drive sizes were 4-8GB. Current drive sizes are topping out at almost 1TB. SSD's offer fast performance (( 740MB/s sequential speeds. )) and low power consumption, usually 12/ to 1/3 that of their desktop and laptop counterparts. With these facts in mind and their mainstream adoption (( As of October 2010, Apple's MacBook Air line carry solid state drives, standard. )) of SSD's, they are showing up more and more in Computer Forensic cases. Two recent articles I found on the web spurred me to write this article. Those articles mentioned that SSD's were 'destroying forensic evidence' (( Source - 'destroying forensic evidence' here. )) and that criminals were 'outsmarting the law' (( Source - 'outsmarting the law' here. )) when they used SSD's. I thought this to be quite interesting and decided to take a look and see what was causing this problem for forensic examiners. According to the article, High-tech criminals outsmarting the law (( Article 'High-tech criminals outsmarting the law' here. )) , when a user performs even a quick format -
"…we saw that shortly after reboot the entirety of the files were damaged and almost all were purged completely, including their filesystem and metadata records," the study found. "After only a few minutes of sitting idle, only a single file among 316,666 was even 50 per cent recoverable; and only 0.03 per cent of data was recoverable. The contrast is startling."
This is in contrast to a standard HDD in which nearly all of the files could be recovered using standard methods after a quick format regardless of the system being rebooted. The purging of data also occurs when forensic investigators installed a physical write-blocker. The write-blocker "allow(s) acquisition of information on a hard drive (when it is copied to another storage device) and are the staple of computer forensic acquisition and are used to ensure there is no accidental damaging of the drive contents." After examining an SSD for traces of data after it had been quick formatted, the team expected the purging routines to kick in around 30-60 minutes later, a process that must happen on SSDs before new data can be written to those blocks. To their surprise, this happened in only three minutes, after which only 1,064 out of 316,666 evidence files were recoverable from the drive (( Text block from - SSD firmware destroys digital evidence, researchers find. )) . According to a paper written by Graeme Bell and Richard Boddington of Perth's Murdoch University, and published in the Journal of Digital Forensics a couple of scenarios were posed that high-lite the issues faced -
- Scenario 1a/1b: An innocent member of the public decides to reformat their drive and reinstall Windows because of a virus or slow performance (alternatively, a criminal has a drive containing evidence of their activities and reformats it). They 'quick format' the drive, but then decide to make a cup of tea beforecontinuing. Meanwhile, the SSD's controller chip analyses the new filesystem and determines that few of the disk blocks are in use. The SSD resets most of the data blocks to prepare them for use, purging all of the data that was previously on the disk. When police seize the computer a few minutes later, they find it to be almostcompletely empty of data. A forensic analyst later wonders: was there ever anything illegal there, and if so, did the suspect knowingly purge that illegal data from the drive?
- Scenario 2a/2b: An innocent member of the public (or a criminal) quick formats an SSD or deletes their files,for innocent (or nefarious) reasons. Police seize the computer a few seconds later. Upon being connected to power, the drive begins to erase itself even while the forensic investigator is trying to read data from the drive. The forensic investigator suspects the existence of a 'logic bomb' intentionally put in place to prevent data from being used as evidence.
The research team made the following statement in their paper -
Evidence stored on modern internal primary storage devices can be subject to a process we label 'self corrosion'.What is meant by this is that even in the absence of computer instructions, a modern solid-statestorage device can permanently destroy evidence to a quite remarkable degree, during a short space of time, in a manner that a magnetic hard drive would not. Here, the phenomenon of solid-state drive (SSD) self-corrosionis proven to exist through experimentation using real world consumer hardware in an experimentally reproducible environment
The team made the following recommendations and guidance -
- Formatting of disks is a normal and reasonable activity that an innocent person might choose to do e.g. to improve the performance of an SSD drive, to tidy up the disk etc. yet may completely eradicate evidence from a disk. Such eradication of evidence may occur within minutes.
- We cannot guarantee previously deleted file data to be preserved on an SSD, regardless of whether the drive image was taken during a 'live' capture of evidence or following a 'dead' capture of evidence.
- Drives can clearly self-modify their data after physical evidence has been gathered, despite best practice efforts by forensic analysts to prevent such behaviour using traditionally effective means such as write-blockers.
- A software or hardware-based write-blocker does not protect against the drive's internal firmware choosing to wipe data from the drive.
- The speed at which corrosion of digital evidence takes place should be expected to increase even further as garbage collection algorithms become more aggressive in cleaning up, and drives become faster, and more powerful controller chips become available.
- We think it would be unwise to assume that irreversible file erasure suggests intent to destroy evidence in cases where a defendant has quick-formatted a drive prior to police seizure. Thereare reasonable circumstances (viruses, slow performance, upgrading) that might cause normal and innocent people to quick format their drive without realising that garbage collection would cause the appearance of 'secure deletion'.
- It is possible that the issues found in this paper will later come to affect USB flash drives as well; having invested in technology that makes NAND flash systems run much faster, it wouldbe very peculiar if manufacturers failed to adopt it across their product range. The increasing availability of high-speed interfaces for portable media such as USB3 makes it likely that we will see more of these complex, evidence-corroding drive controllers in portable USB drives infuture.
Computer storage manufacturer Western Digital said it estimated that worldwide sales of SSDs were $1 billion last year, compared to $35 billion for traditional hard drives. But SSD sales are expected to continue growing as computer manufacturers migrate to the new technology. All five parts of a talk given at DefCon 16 in August 2008. The speaker is Scott Moulton a Computer Forensics Expert and Data Recovery Specialist from Woodstock, Georgia.

Title: Aspergillus section Versicolores, nine new species and multilocus DNA sequence based phylogeny Authors
|Jurjevic, Zeljko -
|Peterson, Stephen
|Horn, Bruce
Submitted to: IMA Fungus
Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: June 7, 2012
Publication Date: June 29, 2012
Citation: Jurjevic, Z., Peterson, S.W., Horn, B.W. 2012. Aspergillus section Versicolores, nine new species and multilocus DNA sequence based phylogeny. IMA Fungus. 3(1):59-79. Interpretive Summary: The mold Aspergillus versicolor is known world-wide, and plays an important role in "sick building syndrome", food spoilage, human and animal disease and it makes the poisonous compound sterigmatocystin. We examined this variable species and found through phylogenetic analysis that Aspergillus versicolor is a species complex containing 14 total distinct species. In this communication we provide descriptions and names for those new species and describe how to distinguish them. This information will be useful to medical clinicians, building hygiene practitioners, toxicologists and academic mycologists.
Technical Abstract: ß-tubulin, calmodulin, internal transcribed spacer and partial lsu-rDNA, RNA polymerase, DNA replication licensing factor Mcm7, and pre-rRNA processing protein Tsr1 were amplified and sequenced from 62 A. versicolor clade isolates and analyzed phylogenetically using the concordance model to establish species boundaries. We used phylogeny to define species limits, and we used phenotypes from 10d CYA cultures to describe the species. Aspergillus austroafricanus, A. creber, A. cvjetkovicii, A. fructus, A. jensenii, A. puulaauensis, A. subversicolor, A. tennesseensis and A. venenatus are described as new species and A. amoenus, A. protuberus, A. tabacinus and A. versicolor are accepted as distinct species on the basis of molecular and phenotypic differences. PCR primer pairs used to detect A. versicolor in sick building syndrome studies have a positive reaction for all, except two, of the newly described species.

|I have been hearing the term "hybrid cloud" for quite a while, but until recently, it sounded more like a marketing pipe dream than a reality. I've often wondered why hardware companies didn't include cloud services that work harmoniously with their hardware offerings. Apple, Microsoft, and other software makers have figured out how to integrate the cloud with their own platforms, but hardware companies seem very slow to adopt the concept. I've had many conversations with SVPs at large hardware vendors, and it turns out the cloud is completely foreign to them. The billing models are different, the sales processes are different – and to a publicly traded company – the differences seem terrifying enough to stay out of cloud.
Then comes F5 Networks: These are the guys that you see in nearly every cage in every datacenter around the planet. The glowing red F5 logo might ring a bell. It turns out they are a security company with really robust offerings and they've been quietly building a solid security posture for their devices over the past decade. They also have open minds and have been working on a strategy to merge hardware with the cloud. They know that a DDoS defense as a cloud service may be one of the most difficult cloud services to build — but if built correctly and with innovation, it becomes one of the best and most solid cloud platforms possible. DDoS defense as a service is the foundation to all cloud services.
By having such a solid foundation, the next step is to seamlessly merge the DDoS defense network with F5's hardware to create the world's first true hybrid cloud. The vision is that customers can create their own local DDoS defense, and when volumetric attacks hit, at a specific point they're "automatically" offloaded to the cloud.
This is obviously a huge step for F5, and it is going to take a lot of F5's smartest people working together with Defense.Net's group to make this happen. But it WILL happen. It's a very exciting time for me to watch my company join forces with F5 to really change the game and create a platform that will help the Internet and businesses grow for the next decade.

Team members said they worked together throughout the process, from the design to testing their final products. They even established both teams to have the same level of skill among its members.
Barbara Salas, a mechanical engineering major in her last semester of school, said she appreciated the chance to get an up close look at employment possibilities when she attended the Career Expo Friday, Oct. 11 at The University of Texas-Pan American.
Having his team's robot knocked out of the competition circle twice, Julio Jimenez felt faint. In round three, however, the Rio Hondo High School freshman and his team's robot, "The Destroyer," rebounded and knocked Progreso High School's robot, "Optimus Exterminator" off the circle the following three rounds to claim victory in the Robotics Day competition Oct. 10 at The University of Texas-Pan American.
UTPA President Robert S. Nelsen described Latina Day as special. "There are very special days -- there are birthdays, there's Christmas -- but for me, personally, this day is the most moving day, to see mothers and daughters here at our University, to see mothers helping their daughters to become the next leaders of America ... and take us to the next level," he said.
As he stood in front of the "Mars Rover Landing" Xbox simulation game, Isaiah Trevino's arms became thrusters as he moved the craft through what Mars mission engineers call the seven minutes of terror: bringing it to a landing safely and on target.
Philippe Cousteau, explorer, social entrepreneur, environmental advocate and the grandson of famous explorer Jacques Yves Cousteau, however, has the confidence that the next generation will find innovative ways to fix the damage that has been done to the earth and improve the lives of the global population.

Air Force vs. Boise State 2013 final score: Broncos survive brief scare, 42-20
The Boise State Broncos were challenged by Air Force on Friday night before picking up a 42-20 win.
The Broncos went into halftime with just a 21-17 lead after an unimpressive first 30 minutes of play. They were unable to stop the Falcons on a handful of lengthy drives, and they even trailed at one point late in the second quarter. Head coach Chris Petersen and BSU made plenty of adjustments at halftime and rolled in the second half, dominating Air Force on both sides of the ball.
With the score 35-20 late in the fourth quarter, Air Force had one final shot at making things interesting. An errant pass from quarterback Jaleel Awini was intercepted by the Broncos, essentially ending things in Boise.
You won't find this in a box score anywhere, but here's Boise State back Jay Ajayi, who had four touchdowns, drinking pickle juice. Yes, drinking pickle juice while running all over the field on a warm night. Pickle juice. Pickle. Juice.
Rankings Ramifications: Boise's loss to Washington to open the season knocked them out of the top 25, and it seems unlikely the home win over Air Force does much in the eyes of voters. They'll need to run the table in the Mountain West if they hope to enter the rankings once again.
But Did They Cover? Boise State opened as 24-point favorites, according to Odds Shark. They failed to cover the spread.

Jan. 25, 2011 -- The FDA today approved over-the-counter sale of Allegra, the best-selling antihistamine also sold generically as fexofenadine.
Allegra maker Sanofi-aventis says Allegra will be on retail shelves on March 4, in plenty of time for spring allergy season.
Other Allegra products will also be sold over the counter. In addition to Allegra 24-Hour and 12-Hour Tablets for adults and children ages 12 and older, these products include:
Allegra-D products combine the antihistamine fexofenadine with the decongestantpseudoephedrine.
How much will it cost? "Pricing for the Allegra family of OTC products will be at the discretion of each retailer," a spokesperson for Sanofi-aventis U.S. tells WebMD via email.
Several companies sell generic fexofenadine but have not yet announced their plans for OTC sale.

The feds who set the rules of the American airwaves are about to finally decide a territorial battle pitting tiny "low-power" frequency freedom fighters against establishment giants like NPR and the National Broadcasters Association.
The little folks want to open up lots more room on the radio dial for local community and school stations like the 100-watt WACC-FM at Asnuntuck Community College in Enfield.
Tom Vesci, who's been operations manager at WACC since it got started a decade ago, says low-power FM stations like his offer the kind of local programming that is missing from most commercial radio these days. He also points out that these tiny operations are great for training students.
On the other side of the debate are bigger commercial and public broadcasting operators that want to use those spots on the frequency spectrum for "translator" transmission towers that can dramatically expand their stations' reach for radio listeners. And, they warn, letting the low-power dudes proliferate could "distort or interfere with" the big stations' signals.
The Federal Communications Commission is scheduled to rule on the issue at the end of November, and the Lilliputians of the radio world are getting excited.
"It is looking very good," says Stephanie Thaw, director of operations for the Prometheus Radio Project, which is devoted to bringing more low-power radio stations to lots more communities around the nation.
"We won't know until the FCC meets on Nov. 30th," Thaw adds, "but we have reason to be very hopeful."
Carol Sisco, a vice president with Connecticut Public Broadcasting, says the big concern for public radio stations is that giving LPFM (as low-power FM stations are called in the trade) more slots on the dial could screw everybody else up.
"There is the potential to really distort and interfere with our signals," Sisco explains. She says the biggest concern is on "the lower bandwidth," between 88 and 91 on the radio dial, where most public radio stations have their signals.
The radio frequency dial in Connecticut and along the heavily populated East Coast is already crowded. For years, FCC regulators resisted pleas from community-radio types to allow more of them on the air because of concerns about signals overlapping and making it harder for listeners to hear broadcasts.
LPFM stations are only allowed to operate at 100 watts or less power, and that's only enough to allow them to reach local listeners up to a few miles away. Big commercial stations can use as much as 50,000 watts to pump out signals carrying their broadcasts sometimes hundreds of miles.
In the past, the FCC decreed that a radio station had to be at least four frequency locations (often called "clicks on the dial") away from a full-power station's spot on the frequency spectrum. Those clicks are a shorthand way of describing specific spots along the radio dial, with one click representing the distance between one frequency location and the next.
In January 2011, President Obama signed into law a bill that let the FCC open up more spots by narrowing the interference buffer zone to just three clicks between stations.
But low-power advocates urged the feds to go even further and allow their stations to be just two frequency spots away from a big station, which is something the FCC has allowed for some of those translator towers. They argue such a move would open up lots of new slots in urban areas where LPFM stations now seldom operate. That's the issue the FCC is supposed to rule on this month.
"We're anticipating something like 5,000 or 6,000 more frequencies" to be opened up if the FCC does what the low-power advocates want, says Thaw.
Mike Rice, president and CEO of the Connecticut Broadcasters Association, doesn't think many new non-commercial LPFM operations would be able to open up in this state even if the feds rule in their favor.
The CBA hasn't taken a position on this issue, in large part because it probably won't have much impact here whichever way the FCC goes.
"In Connecticut, very few of these frequencies would be available," Rice says. He says the radio dial in this highly populated area is so jammed with stations that the likelihood is only a few dozen new FM frequency slots might be opened up.
Rice says his personal concern involves some small, very local AM stations and whether they would be able to take advantage of any of those newly available slots on the FM dial.
Some of these smaller AM stations, even though they've been around for decades, aren't even able to broadcast at night, Rice explains. He says giving them slots on the FM spectrum would let them continue their programming round the clock.

Is Internet Voting Inevitable?
How might the internet alter U.S. democratic institutions, including how Americans get information about and even vote for their public officials in general elections, has been the subject of much debate in recent months. Online voting is one of the most controversial aspects in this debate- a subject that began in March 2000 when the Arizona Democratic Party allowed for the first time remote Internet voting in its presidential primary race.
The prospect of being able to vote "in your pajamas," as its been described captured the imagination of political leaders, technology innovators, and voters around the world.
Is internet voting inevitable? Do you think people should be forced to assemble at polling places in order to cast their ballots? Is there benefits from entering the "public sphere?"

Jimmy Strobl 50+Oct 19 2013: I sure hope so!
But for the US, not that big of a chance for it happening soon...
But in Sweden (where I'm at) there's a snowball starting to roll with a party called Aktiv Demokrati (Active Democracy), We vote about any/everything and majority rules. You can choose a representative and/or vote directly on any question 24/7.
So we use a form of Delegative democracy that's called Liquid democracy, Check to Youtube and/or Wiki to get a better understanding.
Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg0_Vhldz-8
Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delegative_democracy
Oct 24 2013: Yeah we noticed the new Democratic Socalism at work there. What is it now? Guarenteed $2,900. US dollars a month for all citizens.
How many people did you have to rob for that Democracy?
Democracy is only the very worst form of government ever dreamed up.
MOB rules. Gotta love it when you are the minority and majority rules.
What if the majority wanted Shria law?
Oct 31 2013: Hey Morter,
Yeah, the Swiss have an upcoming vote on that, sadly I'm not Swiss...
I haven't robbed anyone...
I think that the current forms of democracy that exist in most places are very flawed, but that the basic idea is solid, with a liquid democracy and internet voting there would be so many upsides to society compared to any other that I've examined... What form of government do you prefer?
As I see it we have three basic choices on who rules whom.
1. No one rules anything - Total freedom or total anarchy, call it what you will.
2. Minority rule - It's basically what we have today, "we the people" don't really get our say in things... You're lucky minority doesn't rule because they want Sharia law and a whole other messed up stuff...
3. Majority rule - The way it's presented to be but isn't.
Can you name any examples of democracies with Sharia law?

The name of south Bethlehem's newest restaurant and nightclub says it all — Broadway Social. The 130-seat establishment, which opened Sept. 26 at 217 Broadway (former Firehouse bar), offers a chic space to wine, dine and yes, socialize.
"We're offering cuisine and an experience much different than what the Lehigh Valley has come to expect," said co-owner Greg Salomoni, a Bethlehem resident originally from Staten Island. "With unique dishes from our chef and a renovated space that can be converted from an upscale dining room during the day into an exciting nightclub at night, there will be something for everyone."
Salomoni and a team of helpers gave the former Lehigh Hook and Ladder Company No. 1 building, erected in the late 1800s, a "contemporary industrial feel," adding a copper bar, concrete sink and tables made of steel and reclaimed wood. The original brick walls remain.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
In the back of the restaurant, a DJ booth was constructed and drop ceiling was removed to make room for speakers, fog machines and strobe and LED lights. The space will act as a nightclub with bottle-service tables during later hours.
Broadway Social features dishes created and prepared by head chef Marcus Morin, a former chef at The Shanty Restaurant and Federal Grill in Allentown, as well as Apollo Grill in Bethlehem.
"Marcus has been a friend of mine for years, and I was very familiar with his caliber of cooking," Salomoni said. "I gave him total control."
The menu features small plates such as hog wings, prosciutto-wrapped scallops and a blackened beef tenderloin quesadilla; breads such as a baja turkey burger, crab cake sliders and a ramen noodle burger; and entrees such as crab-stuffed jumbo shrimp, prime pork chop and mixed grill.
"We're definitely catering to a foodie clientele," said Salomoni, who plans to introduce a late-night menu. The kitchen closes at 10 p.m. during the week and 11 p.m. on weekends.
The 25-seat bar offers 20 craft beers on tap and a wide selection of champagne, wine and specialty drinks, including infused cocktails such as the "bacon maple bourbon" (bacon-infused Jefferson bourbon, maple syrup and orange essence) and "the split" (banana-infused Jameson, Aztec chocolate bitters and absinthe rinse).
A private side patio consisting of metal and wicker high-top tables offers outdoor dining while a second floor, scheduled to open by Christmas, will feature a lounge, small dance floor and multiuse event space.
Hours for Broadway Social, which offers takeout, are 11:30 a.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. Sunday. Info: 610-868-2555.
For Retail Watchers who would rather be behind the bar than sitting at it, a new training center for mixology classes will hold a ribbon-cutting at 5:30 p.m. Monday at Northampton Community College's Fowler Family Southside Center, 511. E. Third St., Bethlehem.
The facility, known as The Bar, will not serve alcoholic beverages. It will adjoin the mock casino, on the center's third floor, where individuals have received the training necessary to qualify for jobs as dealers and security personnel at area resorts.
According to the program's director, David Schweiger, demand for bartenders is expected to increase due to the growth in tourism in the Lehigh Valley.
The ribbon-cutting will include light, nonalcoholic refreshments and a chance to tour the facility. To RSVP, or for more information about classes, call 610-861-5068.
In west Bethlehem, PetSmart opened its newest store Monday at 2102 W. Union Blvd. (in Lehigh Shopping Center). A ribbon-cutting celebration featuring a $4,000 donation to the Animal Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley, as well as pet toy, T-shirt and gift-card giveaways was held Saturday.
As the "largest specialty pet retailer of services and solutions for the lifetime needs of pets," PetSmart operates 1,289 stores in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Other area PetSmart stores are at 2180 MacArthur Road in Whitehall Township, 3794 Easton Nazareth Highway in Lower Nazareth Township, 620 N. West End Blvd. in Richland Township and 400 Shoppes at Stroud in Stroudsburg.
Info: 484-403-4296 or petsmart.com.
Further west on Union Boulevard, a new Afghan kabab restaurant and pizzeria opened its doors Sept. 27 in the former Carmine's Italian restaurant in Allentown.
Aria at 1052 Union Blvd. (next to Blvd. Auto Sales) serves "authentic Afghan cuisine made with fresh ingredients daily."

Day 3 Monodendri to Vikos and O/N in Papingo.
Walk to Mikro Papingo through the Vikos Gorge with its turquoise river-pools (5 to 6 hours). A classic trek in one of Europe's finest canyons. Spectacular cliff walls tower up on both sides as we follow the riverbed downstream, or a small path alongside (4 hrs). We end with a further 2 hours uphill beneath the towers of Papingo. We may cool off with a dip in the natural swimming pool of a nearby stream before settling into our rooms. O/N in pension. (B,L,D)
Day 4 Papingo to Mt Gamila Refuge and Dragon Lake (6 hrs)
Todays walk starts with 3 hours uphill from Mikro Papingo to the "Astraka" refuge on Mt. Gamila, at 1950m. Here we picnic and leave our packs for the afternoon walk to the first of the Dragon Lakes, an hour away across grassy uplands studded with flowers and (until July) some small snow pack. We return to the refuge for the night. (B,L,D)
Day 5 Loop walks on Gamila and Astraka's summits (7 hrs round trip)
There are two summits that we can ascend in a loop walk, if we are fit enough and in a good shape: Mount Gamila at 2480m and Mount Astraka at 2436m. We may choose on the spot which of the two summits to climb from where we can enjoy the panorama over the plunging Aoos ravine. We return to the refuge for the night. (B,L,D)
Day 6 Walk down to Klidonia (6 hrs)
We walk down to Papingo and then to Kato Klidonia village one of the most beautiful stone arched bridges of the Balkans via the deserted hamlet of Klidonia. Spend the night in Konitsa in a guesthouse. (B,L,D)
