These are just good basic mats to have around. They come in a bunch of different sizes and they are light enough to put in crates and carriers. They wash up pretty nice too.
Pros: Sizes and colors
Cons: None

Easy to clean but seems a little too thin to be super comfy
posted 6 years ago
I love the fact that you can wash it, which is why I bought it to begin with. However it seems a little too thin for hardwood floors to be super comfy. With that being said, my dog has a spot on the couch, so obviously he's a little bias. :)
Pros: Easy to clean
Cons: Seems too thin

My pets really like this bed. We have two different ones and they both prefer this one. I do think it's a bit thin but it doesn't seem to bother them. I also like that each side is a different color so you can match your house decor if you'd like.
Pros: Made from recycled plastic bottle
Cons: A bit thin

Jonathan Harvey Speakings, for orchestra and electronics
BBC Radio 3 Sat 19 Jan 2013 22:00 BBC Radio 3
Speakings for large orchestra with electronics, by the late Jonathan Harvey, performed by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra conducted by Ilan Volkov. It was jointly commissioned by the BBC for the 2008 BBC Proms, with Radio France and IRCAM, where Jonathan Harvey spent much time working on new ways of integrating electronics and live instruments. In this work, Harvey 'gives voice' to the orchestra, using a special programme he developed in Paris. Instrumental sounds are captured and transformed to create the characteristic components through which we identify speech and human utterance, which Harvey believed to be fundamental to life and which could transcend it through a 'pure language' toward which the work strives at its end.

Topic - Run Away Dogs
Cookie (North East Wales MC) - on 14 Nov 2012
Got a recurring problem with our dogs, and would appreciate advice from anyone who's been in the same situation?
Basically, we've got 2 springer spaniels, mother and daughter, and they are escape artists! they love to run away, at every opertunity! We've accepted that it's in their nature, and so have learnt that one of them must always be on a lead (they'll only run together, never alone)
However, thismorning, they did something they've not done before, they escaped from the garden. We put a nice fence around our garden so that in the morning, we could just let them out for a wee and a bit of a run around while we got ready for work, before going out for a walk etc, but today, for some reason, they've decided to jump the fence and run off (first time in 3 years that they've done so!)
So, now we can't even trust them in our own back garden...what should we do? Simple solution would be to get rid of one of them, but it's not so simple, because then we have to choose! some people have suggested electric collars, with an 'invisible boundary', but they're illegal in wales, and knowing our luck we'd get caught! I could increase the fence height, but that'd be a few Ł100, and really ruin the garden, making it more like a prison!!
We're kind of at our wits end! please help!!
oh, and if you're wondering, they've still not been found, they're out and about, enjoying themselves, and we're just hoping that someone finds them and calls us!

The NoSQL Fad
Adam D'Angelo[1]:
I think the "NoSQL" fad will end when someone finally implements a distributed relational database with relaxed semantics.
I believe that defining these relaxed semantics will actually lead to figuring out the origins of many of the NoSQL solutions—just as an example, relaxing the relational model would lead to options like the document model or the BigTable-like columnar model.

This Is All The Proof You Need That The BCS Is A Joke
11/25/08 in NCAAF | 100%InjuryRate | 1283 respect
By the way, you're probably wondering who that one loss was to. It was to Duke, one of the worst D-I schools out there. And it wasn't even close, Duke blew out James Madison 31-7. Yet somehow, James Madison is ranked ahead of teams like Michigan State and Cal. Weirdest thing of all: According to the Sagarin rating, James Madison would be the fourth-best team in the SEC. Yes, better than LSU. WTF?
Seriously, I'm not making this up. If you go to the rankings right here, pay attention to the red numbers, not anything in blue. The red numbers are Sagarin's ELO-CHESS numbers, which are completely computer generated and are the one part of his rankings that are used by the BCS. And there's James Madison, a team that can't even play in a BCS bowl, ranked 24th.
Words fail me, because this is utterly ridiculous. Seriously, if there was ever a time for there to be a college football playoff, the time is now.
Either James Madison is a lot better than you think, or there's one more thing rotten in the BCS [Dr. Saturday]

QUICKSBURG, Va. (WHSV) -- Stonewall Jackson High School quarterback Daniel Buhl has made a habit of barreling his way through the defense and leading his generals into battle.
"If I can set the standard for effort and attitude and everything like that, then I'm confident that we'll be in good shape as a team and be able to achieve our goals," said Daniel
"He works the hardest out of anybody on the team. When it comes to on the field, he is encouraging, he gets the guys fired up, he wants them doing better, and he expects more of himself than most people would," said Patrick Smoot, Daniel's basketball and football coach.
Daniel doesn't just meet those expectations, he often exceeds them. On top of being a three-sport athlete at Stonewall, he ranks number one in his class academically, sporting at 4.3 GPA.
"Well academics is the foundation for our future education. there will be a day when I going to have to hang up sports and won't be able to do that anymore," said Daniel.
"He is definitely a role model for younger students and I think even students in his own class because they see how much hard work he puts in to both areas. Some people are sort of in awe of him that he's able to balance academics and athletics so successfully," said Aimee Miller, Daniel's economics teacher.
"It's through hard work and dedication,and he's done that in the classroom and on the field. He is the one that if I would want to point out and say this is what I want our athletes to look like, Daniel would be the perfect example of that," said Smoot.

To help Amar'e and the second unit defensively, Woodson made a subtle rotation change. Did you notice it? More:
To help Amar'e and the second unit defensively, Woodson made a subtle rotation change. Did you notice it? More:
Though starts have been an issue for the Knicks, Woodson has been reluctant to make a chance to the starting lineup. But he did tweak his rotation to help in an area of greater concern: soft second quarters. So he made a change in Tyson Chandler's shifts during the game. While Chandler used to play the entire first quarter, then rest to start the second quarter until about the seven-minute mark, now he plays half the first quarter and starts the second. That puts him on the floor with the second unit, when Steve Novak is often attacked at the four spot. Chandler's presence helps in pick-and-roll coverage and, most importantly, with communication. The second unit has sorely missed Rasheed Wallace, who was a big part of the defensive consistency in the early part of the season. Kenyon Martin is soon expected to take up that role, and, along with the impending return of Marcus Camby, that should allow Chandler to return to his usual minutes rotation.

April is Call Before You Dig Month, and the Public Service Commission is seeing its largest turnout so far for its pipeline safety training seminar.
More than 100 pipeline operators are attending the sessions which focus on changes in North Dakota policies and concerns that pipeline operators have. "With the heightened awareness of pipeline safety, and some of the recent spills and incidents taking place, there's generally more concern on what's going on," says Brian Kalk of the Public Service Commission. "The operators really want to ask more questions. We want to ask more questions of them too, but this is the group of people involved in North Dakota keeping our infrastructure safe. So, there's a renewed impact to it because we continue to be a bigger and bigger energy development." The second day of the seminars begins tomorrow. And if you'd like more information on the Call Before you Dig program visit www.psc.nd.gov.

CitySquare team members worked with well over 50,000 different people during 2012.
The vast majority of these neighbors are not homeless. Rather, they are people who work, but who don't earn enough to make ends meet, or they are children, disabled and/or elderly.
The challenges facing these individuals and families define our work and our mission.
During 2013, we've set an audacious goal for ourselves: to move at least one person onto the road out of poverty or to see a person move above the poverty line every day during the year. For a family of four success will mean the ability to earn more than $23,050 annually or $1,921 per month. For a single individual the goal is to earn more than $11,170 a year or $931 monthly.
The benchmark of success for us is objective. Still, there are a couple of matters that we must keep in mind as we venture out into the new year.
First, earning $1 above the dividing line doesn't really mean that a person is not facing the challenges of poverty any longer! But $1 above the line is real progress for a family currently earning less than $20,000 per year, which is true of a sizable portion of the inner city population in Dallas.
Second, we must work hard to capture the stories and the data necessary to document success in our rather ambitious goal: 1 person every day above the poverty line during 2013. But, we are willing to do the work to document the progress and to evaluate our effectiveness.
Most of us have no understanding of the day-to-day realities that poverty delivers to thousands and thousands of our neighbors in a city like Dallas.

4. Project Reports
OUCS attracts around £1m in external grants each year from bodies such as the JISC and Research Councils. These allow us to pursue important development and research projects of key importance to the future direction of the University, which we otherwise would not have had the funding to do. We also offer assistance to faculties and departments who wish to pursue funding applications with a considerable IT element. In this final section we present short reports on some of the projects we have led.
4.1. Accessing and Storing Knowledge
http://ask.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ask/index.php/Main_Page (out of date)
Accessing and Storing Knowledge (ASK) is a JISC-funded project due to be delivered in May 2007. The ASK project will develop a pilot repository service allowing users to store digital resources, e.g. reading lists and PowerPoint slides, in their own private area or 'briefcase'. By using this briefcase, users are able to finely control how they share each resource. For instance, an academic will be able to publish a discussion paper for anyone to find using Internet search engines (e.g. Google), whereas only a small number of peers are able to gain access to other resources, such as scientific data sets stored in the same briefcase. Interoperability is a key necessity of software development, as any new services must work with existing university repositories.
A pilot reading list service has been developed
in conjunction with ACDT and has now been released and can be
viewed at:
http://flounder.oucs.ox.ac.uk/mdc2/ (out of date)
During the last year the following milestones have been achieved:
- delivered the federated search service;
- delivered the Shibboleth-compliant authentication service;
- delivered the authorisation service;
- delivered the group service;
- delivered the reading-list management service.
Future project activities include:
- building compliance with the federated search 'SRW' interoperability specification;
- building compliance with the open archives 'OAI' interoperability specification;
- build the user interface (CSS, JSP and Struts model);
- linking the Shibboleth authentication service with the ASK Authorization and Group services;
- demonstrate the finalised repository system to members of the University;
- publicise the project findings through appropriate academic journals.
The project team is working closely with academics, librarians and students across the University to achieve the project goals.
4.2. British National Corpus
The BNC is an internationally famous 100-million word language corpus, representing the state of the English language as of the end of the twentieth century. OUCS has been responsible for its maintenance and distribution since 1994.
Work on converting the corpus from its original SGML format to a more up-to-date XML format was completed this year, and enabled us to undertake a substantial amount of work on correcting significant errors in the corpus, and on introducing additional linguistic markup to improve its usability. This work was largely completed by July, and we are now testing the new version of the corpus with a view to a complete new release by the start of 2007.
- overview of current community image collections;
- selection of community image collections to use as case studies;
- survey of owners and users of community led image collections;
- A two-day conference at Oxford exploring issues;
- evaluation of the positioning of community collections relative to national and commercial alternatives;
- key recommendations for technical implementation infrastructure.
Dissemination was to the JISC Image Working group and the related communities in a series of staged self-contained reports, culminating in a final recommendation document.
4.4. Constructing2Learn
Constructing2Learn is a project funded by the JISC Designs for Learning Programme. The 18-month project began in May 2006. The project aims to build and evaluate software and learning designs to enable university students to build computer simulations and games within their field of expertise. Oxford University academics in the zoology and a sociology departments are collaborating with us as domain experts. The software prototype consists of:
- an interface for composing program fragments;
- a component that generates and runs NetLogo models (http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/);
- a code fragment browser component;
- an interface to the forthcoming version of LAMS (Learning Activity; Management System http://www.lamsinternational.com/) to support the creation and execution of learning designs involving scientific model creation.
4.5. e-Science and e-Research in Oxford
The goal of e-Research is to facilitate better, faster, different research using a new type of computing infrastructure, often known as the grid. Grid middleware enables distributed computing resources to be linked and shared securely. The Oxford e-Science Centre was formed in 2001 and evolved into the Oxford e-Research Centre (OeRC) in 2006. The OeRC is a new unit within the Mathematics and Physical Life Sciences Division. The University funded the posts of Executive Director and Campus Grid Manager and began the construction of a dedicated building. The 2000 m2 'e-Science Laboratory' will be completed in December 2006, and will house the OeRC and other e-Science related activities.
The OeRC is one of four dedicated nodes within the UK core
e-Science programme's production National Grid Service (http://www.grid-support.ac.uk/). A campus grid has been
created which uses spare compute cycles from up to 1000 PCs across the
University. This has become an important resource for some researchers
within the University. Information is available at:
http://www.oerc.ox.ac.uk/facilities/oxgrid.xml (out of date).
Within Oxford, the OeRC is becoming an important facilitator for interdisciplinary research, and for close collaboration with industry.
The OeRC has teamed up with the Oxford Internet Institute to create an exciting new centre within the James Martin 21st Century School - the e-Horizons Institute. Information is available at: http://www.e-horizons.ox.ac.uk/.
4.6. Evaluation of Shibboleth and PKI for Grids
The Evaluation of Shibboleth and PKI for Grids (ESP-GRID) project is funded by JISC to investigate whether and how Shibboleth offers solutions to issues of grid authentication, authorization and security. A further general aim is to investigate the requirements of grid security and whether (and how) the acceptance of Shibboleth assertions for access controls could be used within existing PKI based grids. Another focus is whether Shibboleth can contribute towards an interface between existing information environments and grid computing environments. The project began in August 2004 and is due to complete most of its work by June 2006.
The project began by analysing future requirements for grid computing with respect to security and access management. The project attempted to capture previously documented requirements and draw up a newer set, bearing in mind the need to expand the use or benefits of grid computing wider than highly technical computer scientists. A short thesis was written on the merits of Shibboleth and PKI for Grids. We also looked at virtual organisations (VOs) and reviewed the technologies available for (access) policy management in grids and in the information environment. The project out sourced the development of the Shibboleth-enabled grid demonstrator to the National e-Science Centre at Glasgow and this work was completed successfully. The project will report in Autumn 2006 and in January 2007. During the Autumn of 2006, there will be a mini-project conceived as a follow up to the main project and utilising some of the main project's under-spend. This will look at usability issues for grids and the types of new users who may become involved.
4.7. Humbul Humanities Hub (now Intute: Arts and Humanities)
After over 20 years of operation Humbul has regenerated itself once more and, together with Artifact, is now fully assimilated into Intute: Arts and Humanities. Intute, a new free national online service, was launched in July 2006, reflecting a complete overhaul and reorganisation of the Resource Discovery Network (RDN), of which Humbul was a part. The core business of Intute, like the RDN, is to facilitate access to the best of the web for education and research.
Intute: Arts and Humanities, is a national service which employs a distributed network of subject specialists to find and review websites suitable for research and study within the arts and humanities. Intute is funded by the JISC and Intute: Arts and Humanities also receives funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).
Achievements during 2005-2006 include:
- celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Humbul, (started December 1985);
- establishing a 'virtual team' for Intute: Arts and Humanities, led by the the Research Technologies Service, Oxford University Computing Services (OUCS) in partnership with Manchester Metropolitan University Library;
- achieving more than 11,600 publicly available reviews of humanities websites by May 2006. We continue to concentrate on the quality of our collection through review, prioritization, and ensuring we highlight the 'best of the web' for each subject area;
- improving our collection by the revision of existing catalogue records of online resources (especially in subject areas such as archaeology, literature, languages, area studies, philosophy, religion and theology);
- revising five Virtual Training Suite tutorials on the Internet for Philosophers, for Religion and Theology (merging these two tutorials), for Historians, and for Modern Languages. A new tutorial for Archaeology was published during the summer of 2006;
- publishing four booklets which highlight key websites for English, History, Modern Languages, and Archaeology. Print-runs of 3,000 each have been distributed and we also published online versions;
- receiving positive feedback from users, not least in response to the replies to helpdesk queries and the distribution of subject booklets;
- leading a cross-Intute study to discover how the service can better support research. This work has been very successful with good response to the initial user survey, and work towards a requirements report progressed at the end of the period;
- developing the MyIntute service based around social/informal/collaborative principles and technology sometimes referred to as 'Web 2.0';
- highlighting freely available peer-reviewed online journals across the humanities and the websites of AHRC-funded projects through the publication of two discrete collections.

4.8. Learning Design Projects
Two JISC-funded LTG projects which were started during 2005 reached completion in Spring 2006: a study of lecturers' use of generic tools in authoring learning activities, and an investigation of the use of LAMS and Moodle to design and disseminate support for study skills in East London schools (jointly with the University of Greenwich). The first of these has fed directly into the new JISC Design for Learning Programme, in which the LTG is actively involved in two projects. These are: Constructing2Learn (see separate section) and the design and development of a practitioner-focused pedagogic planner tool intended to guide teaching staff in designing effective technology-mediated learning activities (joint project with TALL).
Dissemination activities associated with the projects have included conference presentations and collaboration on a chapter for a forthcoming edited book on learning design.
4.9. National Grid Service
http://www.oerc.ox.ac.uk/facilities/ngs/ (out of date)
Following the transition of the Oxford e-Science Centre into the Oxford e-Research Centre (OeRC), the National Grid Service (NGS) is now operating as part of the OeRC. This enables the service to work more closely with OxGrid, the University Campus Grid, and with OSC, the Oxford Supercomputing Centre. The Oxford NGS cluster is accessible via OxGrid interfaces which provide University of Oxford users with a single interface to OxGrid resources across the University and to wider NGS resources across the UK. The number of NGS users has doubled (206 users in July 2005, 402 users in July 2006). A total of 134400 jobs have been run over the year (Aug 2005 to Jul 2006), consuming 913,633 CPU hours. This represents 81% utilisation for the 128 CPUs in the cluster. The National Grid Service partner integration activity has continued with other institutions donating resources to the Grid. In the past year, two additional sites have joined. There has also been discussion with partners who have different types of service offerings including dynamic service hosting, visualisation, access to data sources and repositories.
4.10. OSS Watch
OSS Watch is a JISC-funded national advisory service on free and open source software. JISC's open source policy, to which OSS Watch made a substantial contribution in drafting, was published in September 2005. During 2005-6 the staff complement was 3.2 FTE.
In April, OSS Watch held a three-day international conference in Oxford on Open Source and Sustainability. OSS Watch also participated in numerous conferences and workshops, notably Online Educa Berlin, SocialSource, Open Source VLEs: The Next Generation, AoC Nilta Annual Technical Conference, RSC Northern Ireland annual conference, Institutional Web Managers Workshop, UKUUG spring conference, and the annual Oxford IT Support Staff conference.
More than 20 briefing notes were published on the OSS Watch website during the year. Of special note is a series of five briefing notes on the most frequently used open source licenses.
In February and March, OSS Watch undertook fieldwork for the OSS Watch Survey 2006, the report from which was launched in July. During 2005-6, OSS Watch assisted OUCS in streamlining its procedure for staff contributing to open source projects. In August 2005, the OSS Watch website was substantially redesigned.
4.11. Oxford Text Archive
The Oxford Text Archive (OTA) was founded in 1976, and in 2006 is celebrating thirty years of collecting, distributing, and preserving electronic texts from institutions and scholars worldwide.
The OTA hosts AHDS Literature, Languages and Linguistics, one of the subject centres of the Arts and Humanities Data Service, and is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and JISC. In this capacity, the OTA plays a key national role in advising academics in literary and linguistics subject areas on the technologies and methods involved in creating electronic resources, and continues to build a digital repository of literary and linguistic resources.
AHDS Literature, Languages and Linguistics works in close collaboration with the AHRC, advising applicants to research grant schemes on technical aspects of their proposals, and assessing the applications. The AHDS offers its services as part of a coordinated provision for computing in the arts and humanities in the UK, in association with Intute Arts and Humanities, the AHRC ICT Methods Network, the Arts and Humanities e-Science Support Centre (AHESSC) and ARIA.
In the past year AHDS Literature, Languages and Linguistics ran a two-day conference 'Corpus Approaches to the Language of Literature' in Oxford, and a pre-conference workshop on the same topic at at the annual conference of the Poetics and Linguistics Association, in Joensuu in Finland. OTA staff participated in international academic conference, symposia and workshops around the world, promoting good practice in the creation and use of electronic resources in literary and linguistic research and teaching.
4.12. ShibGrid: Integrating NGS into the Academic Framework
http://www.oerc.ox.ac.uk/activities/projects/index.xml?ID=ShibGrid (out of date)
ShibGrid is one of the projects funded by JISC in 2006 as trials for Shibboleth-based access to the National Grid Service (NGS). It aims to develop a prototype system that will allow NGS users to access NGS facilities securely through the Shibboleth-enabled authentication mechanisms employed by their institutions. In addition to the existing 'medium assurance' access for current NGS users (via their 12 month e-Science certificate), 'lower assurance' certificate access and 'access not requiring certificates' will also be enabled by the project. It is expected that this project will provide a key component within the road map of security implementation within the JISC Infrastructure Programme and UK e-Science Core Programme.
The project is running in partnership with the Oxford e-Research Centre and the Council for the Central Laboratory of the Research Councils (CCLRC). Staff from the RTS is involved with the project planning and assisting with portal work and the setup of the local Shibboleth infrastructure.
To July 2005, the project had created tools for the upload and download of proxy certificates and had also developed Shibboleth-based access controls into the NGS portal. The next stages are to cover the rest of the expected user scenarios and develop systems for using temporary low-assurance certificates. The project needs to engage with communities of test users and to cycle code development so that the outputs (code and documentation) can enter production and be easily maintained. The project began in April 2006 and is due to finish in March 2007.
4.13. Shibboleth Aware Portals and Information Environments (SPIE)
http://spie.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ (out of date)
The SPIE project aims to demonstrate how and to what degree middleware standards such as Shibboleth and PERMIS (another authorisation system) can be used to secure web-based applications, with a focus on enhanced portals and portlets. This project has deployed Shibboleth at the University of Oxford as a 'real life' test-bed environment and investigated its potential to assist in facilitating access to resources on both local and remote services. In practice, this enables users from other universities to securely authenticate to Oxford resources without the need for a central access management system, as well as allowing Oxford's users seamless access to remote resources, making use of the existing Webauth single sign-on system.
Over the past year, SPIE has created reusable security components that allow tight integration between Shibboleth and Java applications, as well as tools that allow the management of privacy policies and to configure access controls. SPIE has collaborated with other related projects such as the Sakai VRE and Shibgrid projects (investigating secure research collaborations) or the WebLearn team. The outcomes from the project demonstrate the usefulness of a federated identity management system within Oxford, both for access to external resources (e.g. those currently protected by Athens) or even for secure access to on-line resources within the collegiate University.
4.14. Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)
Oxford is one of the four host organizations of the TEI Consortium, an international project creating detailed guidelines and XML schemata for the encoding of texts.
Our main role in the past year has been to bring the TEI Guidelines closer to a release of P5 (the next release of the TEI Guidelines ), due at the end of 2006. We have continued to develop work flow tools, and contribute to provide substantial input to the sections on linking, names and dates and manuscript description. The following staff from the RTS have worked on the TEI:
- Lou Burnard (European editor of the TEI): Guidelines development and teaching
Sebastian Rahtz:
infrastructure tools, publication stylesheets, Roma schema
interface (
http://www.tei-c.org.uk/Roma/), and teaching
- James Cummings: teaching and the TEI wiki
A two-day course on the TEI was offered through the ITLP in February 2006, and staff offered papers and teaching at international workshops in Sofia, Wurzburg, Paris, Kyoto, Montreal, Forli and Besancon.
4.15. TReCX
TReCX (Tracking and Reporting in e-Learning ConteXts) was a six-month JISC-funded project which started in March 2006 as part of the most recent round of 'Toolkits and Demonstrators'. Two major scenarios of tracking and reporting are to analyse how much a given resource is being used, and to assess an individual's use of a number of resources over time. In a world where people are increasingly utilizing loosely connected groups of tools (such as wikis, blogs, assessment tools, etc) in order to deliver a course there needs to be some way of recording the actions of users within those tools and making this information available. Such tools may maintain their own stores of tracking data or may not retain this information at all. This project was concerned with creating artifacts that cover a number of scenarios, including enabling applications that do not currently maintain their own tracking stores to publish events to an external store, and deriving interfaces for applications with their own store to be queryable by reporting applications.
The interfaces between the modules were defined as simple RESTful web services (XML over HTTP with PUT and GET requests). The implementations were written in Java.
UCISA is the Universities and Colleges Information Systems Association. UCISA represents those responsible for delivering information systems and technology services in universities, colleges and related institutions. UCISA's main aims are to promote best practice amongst its members through events, awards, publications and a network of contacts, and to represent the interests of its membership through lobbying, responding to consultations, relationships with other groups and taking part in appropriate working groups and committees.
UCISA ran sixteen events last year. These ranged from one day seminars covering subjects as diverse as voice over IP (VOIP), job evaluation and public relations, to three three-day conferences for Directors of Information Services, Heads of Corporate Information Services and User Support staff. UCISA published the second edition of its Information Security Toolkit which provides template policies and procedures to help institutions comply with the BS 7799 British Standard on Information Security.
UCISA represented the community in discussions with a number of Government departments over 2005-6. These covered the introduction of digital television, the Terrorism Act, and the introduction of Shared Services. In addition, UCISA responded to consultations on the HEFCE Strategy, the JANET Service Level Agreement, and a review of the Leadership Foundation for Higher Education. Finally, UCISA worked with the Leadership Foundation to develop a programme targeted at potential leaders of information services in order to fill these mission-critical positions within Higher Education institutions.
4.17. Virtual Research Environments
OUCS, through the RTS, is participating in three JISC-funded virtual research environment projects. The Integrative Biology VRE (IBVRE) and the Building a VRE for the Humanities (BVREH) projects have focused on establishing the requirements of the research communities they serve, and both published initial user requirements reports in November 2005. The IBVRE Project, which is led by Comlab with the project manager located within the RTS, is building a VRE to serve the needs of the cancer and heart modelers within the Integrative Biology consortium. The project has undertaken activities within two key strands: deploying the portal and project management infrastructure to support the Integrative Biology consortium and performing a deep analysis of the research process. As part of the latter process, workshops were held at Tulane, Washington and Lee universities to assist the design of an in silico experiment repository. The BVREH Project was successful in obtaining additional funding to develop a pilot virtual works place for the study of ancient documents. Matthew Mascord, the IBVRE Project Manager, is a co-investigator on this demonstrator project.
The RTS is also contributing the Sakai VRE Demonstrator project, led by Lancaster. During this period, the project has investigated: the integration of the Shibboleth access management protocol with the Sakai software; deployed a test installation of Sakai; and undertaken a requirements analysis for the federated searching and resource discovery within a Sakai-based VRE.
4.18. Xaira Project
XAIRA (XML Aware Indexing and Retrieval Architecture) is an open source XML indexing system developed at OUCS, for use with the British National Corpus or any other large collection of XML texts.
This year, we have produced four further major releases of the system and completely revised the internal query language. Release 1.19 was made available on Source Forge in June.
A web-based delivery system using the system has been developed for the Clay Sanskrit Library and the software has been demonstrated at a number of conferences and workshops in Europe and Japan.

Actor Emile Hirsch is set to tackle the role made famous by Warren Beatty: A new TV miniseries about notorious bank-robbing couple Bonnie And Clyde is in the works.
The "Into the Wild" star will play charismatic Clyde Barrow opposite "The Borgias" actress Holliday Grainger, who has replaced Miley Cyrus as Bonnie Parker in the project.

William Hurt will portray a Texas Ranger on the hunt for the pair, while his old "Broadcast News" co-star Holly Hunter has been cast as Parker's mother, Emma.
Oscars producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron are the brains behind the four-part show, which will air on the Lifetime and History networks.
Faye Dunaway played Beatty's leading lady in the Oscar-nominated movie "Bonnie and Clyde" in 1967.

This is what has always bothered me about WoW. WCIII TFT ends with Arthas becoming the new Lich King. Then thats it. He sits on the frozen throne and does nothing for years and years. If this guy is so evil then why isn't he a bigger part of WoW. Maybe an occasional incursion of Arthas wandering the world randomly attacking cities (like Kruul did right before the expansion came out). Could you imagine walking into UC only to come face to face with Arthas, seconds before he one shots you like you've never been one shot before?
Maybe Arthas isn't as powerful as he used to be. He still hasn't regained control over the Forsaken. He barely holds control over the plaguelands. And his occasional incursions into azeroth are always beaten back.
Or maybe someone dared him to stick his tongue on frostmourne and now its stuck (tongue on a frozen runeblade in a land with no running hot water, ouch).

BET Awards Special: "He Has Already Received Comparisons To Hip-Hop Greats Like Nas & Jay-Z"
4. Trinidad James
Before Trinidad James came out, no one had a clue what "Molly" was. He's like the Dave Chappelle of introducing instant-global slang. Even though "skeet skeet" was already made infamous by Lil Jon in 2002-2003, Chappelle's dialogue on it made the term banned from radio. Nearly the same thing has happened with Trinidad James. Even though the term "Molly" has been used in the past, its popularity reached all-time highs thanks to Trinidad. The emphasis on fashion, catchy hooks and dope visuals make Trinidad James a true contender for "Best New Artist."

Seth & Allison's Kitchen: Installing Speakers
Renovation Diary
Type of Project: Kitchen/Family Room renovation
Location: Ventura, California
Type of building: Mid-Century, multi-level, single family home
The Renovation Diaries are a new collaboration with our community in which we feature your step by step renovation progress and provide monetary support towards getting it done in style. See all of our Reno Diaries here.
This week we took care of some odds and ends, including installing the built-in speakers in the family room and managing media wiring. We made sure to have our electrician run speaker wires to all the speaker locations, including outside on the deck, before drywall was hung. So now Seth was able to mount the speakers for surround sound in the wall and ceiling.
Inside of the media closet, with media enclosure shown.
A fun advantage of creating a brand new floorplan was being able to customize a few things. We built a media closet that sits in the hallway just behind the family room that lets us store and hide all of our TV and stereo wiring and components without cluttering the space near the TV.
Installing in-wall speakers.
I know that having the kitchen open onto a family room and outdoor deck isn't for everybody, but it fits our lifestyle. It's nice to be able to watch TV while cooking in the evening and to have a casual place for friends and family to lounge with easy access to the kitchen and outdoor space during gatherings. We will also have a separate dining room beside the kitchen for family meals, which is out of view of the TV and the kitchen.
It might sound obvious but during this renovation — which has consisted of not just the kitchen/family room but simultaneously of the entire house — we've learned just how important it is to keep the job site neat and organized. Luckily now that we have a newly finished basement, Seth was able to assemble all of the kitchen cabinets down there this week, where they'll be stored out of the way until install.
Next week will be a big week for turning the space into what will feel like a real house, including installing the kitchen cabinets, countertops, appliances and the wood floor throughout the space. We're really excited to see the big transformation we've been working toward start to take shape.
Estimated time for project: 8 weeks/two months
Time remaining: 2 weeks

I retrofited my apartment for built in 7.1 speakers and a media closet.
It is so nice not to have all the wires and speakers cluttering up the apartment.
It was lots of work to do all by myself but I love it!
I am so glad you had your electrician do the work! Having worked in the home theater business, there have been so many times customers come in with plans and ideas, wanting to install a HT system in their media room/living room, etc. Most of the in-wall stuff was on an order as needed basis (we didn't get enough in-wall installation jobs to warrant stocking parts) and the lead time was 2 weeks. Naturally, after spending a few hours going over equipment and placement, telling them that the wires should be installed before the walls go up, they tell us that the walls go up the day after tomorrow and can we put it in today? It's a wonder we didn't need counseling.
I really want to do white subway tile when we renovate our kitchen, I love how the tile looks but I'm not sure I like darker grout. While it would hid dirt well, I almost think it looks like dirt...does it look this way in person or is it because of the photos?

I plan on kicking things off the night after Summerslam 2003. I've always thought that this would be a fun time frame to write in seeing as the roster was stacked with talent and options. First off, I'd like to know:
- Would a short recap of TV shows, Raw and Smackdown, be fine? Not one line for every segment, but rather, a paragraph or two? Not like, 3 or 4 lines, but enough to create an image in the readers head, get the point across, further things etc.? PPV's would be written in maximum detail which I think you are accustomed to around here, checking out the BTB Hall of Fame (some fantastic work! Bravo, WF!).
- Whats the deal with feedback? A few lines explaining what stood out to you and why, or a breakdown of every segment and whatnot?
To me, it sounds like you're in a good mindset already; reading Hall of Fame threads to get an idea of what the best of the best is, reviewing matches/storylines from the time period you're going to write, etc - it's a great way to prepare yourself, so props for not just throwing yourself in head-first like so many people (myself included) do so foolishly first time around.
If you can get the point across in your recaps, I'd be happy, tbh. It sounds like you're aiming to be descriptive, "create an image in the reader's head", so I say go for it, and see how it looks. As for feedback, people do a variety of things; myself, I look through every segment, because the writer wrote each segment for a reason, with an idea in mind. Even if you don't do that (which isn't an issue, it gets a bit weighty and I haven't given any feedback in seven months, if you can believe it
) and
just go with what stood out, make sure you include a few points on what you thought the writer could improve upon, too. That way, everyone gets better, and hopefully the person will hit you back with some advice on how
can improve. Best of luck.

ROME — Secretary of State John Kerry cautioned Russia on Thursday against selling advanced surface-to-air missiles to Syrian government forces, as US officials warned that the delivery of the arms would threaten Israel and undercut efforts to reach a political agreement.
''We've made it crystal clear that we prefer that Russia would not supply them assistance,'' Kerry said during a news conference with Italy's new top diplomat. ''That is on record. That has not changed.''


text: I don't understand the concept of love. How can someone, anyone, care for another so much. (I understand family) I feel as though my heart won't let me have feelings like that. Young people everywhere, complain that they need a boyfriend, girlfriend, whatever. All of you people are young, go live your life, forget that bull shit. Why do they have this need for somebody in their lives. I'm totally and completely content with loneliness. The world is so unreliable nowadays, all you have is yourself. Question time, why do I feel incapable of having these feelings? Is it considered a good thing? I don't feel normal, but who wants to be normal? Everyone around me talks about that special someone, or even having or creating feelings for someone, but me? I try to make these connections with people, but its seems to never work out. It's not like I'm putting much effort and whining that I don't have anyone, I just want to feel what caring for someone that much feels like. I just seem to over think every aspect of my life, every little details of something, or someone. Why am I like this, and why can I not handle my feelings? I don't know whats going on in my life, all I know is I feel different than the people around me. I feel detached.

Continued ripples in story of 87-year-old woman in California denied CPR
Have you been following the West Coast story about the way a senior independent living facility handled an 87-year-old woman who died after a staff member declined to perform CPR last week... despite repeated emotional pleas over the telephone from a Bakersfield fire-dispatcher?
So many end-of-life issues here:
No evidence of a do-not-resuscitate order.
Yet the family insists the 87-year-old woman WANTED to live in a facility without medical staff, and didn't want life-prolonging intervention in the event of an emergency. The family insists it won't sue the facility.
By initial reports, the facility had a policy against any staff member performing CPR. The policy was just to call 9-1-1. (Which raises the intriguing question: If a resident didn't want extraordinary intervention, why call 9-1-1 at all?)
Just to be clear, independent living facilities are to be differentiated from nursing homes, which provide some level of medical care.
Now, this morning we have the news management of the facility says the woman who called in the 9-1-1 emergency misunderstood the facility's policy. Hmmm. Is management throwing the woman under the bus?
Already, some folks have called for legislation in Sacramento to prevent a repetition of this tragedy... if it is a tragedy...
Have you any experience with such issues here in our area?
You can hear my interview with medical ethicist Dr. Art Caplan (Formerly of the University of Pennsylvania), Director of the Division of Medical Ethics at New York University's Langone Medical Center, and medical ethics columnist at MS NBC...

Wonder if they gave CPR to Hugo Chavez?

Wow! This is a difficult story. We all lose loved ones. Hearing this story really brought back some memories.
I am a bit troubled by the family's "Oh, it's okay" attitude. It's almost like "Thank God she's dead." But, bottom line to me is this is not a story that should be nationwide. This is a local story in that locale. It's the family and the institution. It should stay there.

For the record, it now seems the family of this now deceased woman indicated support for the facility; then backpedaled; then again indicated support.
This story "had legs" as a national story, I think, initially because of a CBS affiliate getting the 9-1-1 emergency audio, in which the woman calling 9-1-1 seems more aggravated / distressed by the insistent dispatcher than the plight of the elderly woman who's dying.
The story has gone through several news cycles because of the changes noted above, and the multitude of issues raises.
Plus, we Baby Boomers are all getting "there"!

This whole fiasco could have been prevented if the woman had just made out a living will and do-not-resuscitate order. I have heard in many cases that senior citizens just don't get it when it comes to taking care of the legal issues they'll leave behind to their caretakers.

Made to recipe, quick & easy. Our trick to "perfect" seared scallops is to pat them dry several times, using fresh paper towels each time. Then put in fridge for 20-30min to air-dry. Season with kosher salt in the pan, don't fuss with them, turn once. First course CL's grilled romaine salad & plated with CL's sauteed chard with red pepper. Very good.
Seared Scallops with Fresh Linguine and Romano Cheese

nola0107 Posted: 02/14/09
I thought this was just ok. I don't think I'll make it again. The scallops were decent. The pasta lacked excitement. I added a little minced garlic to add some flavor to the scallops.
dgitlin612 Posted: 04/11/09
Followed the recipe, except sauteed some mushrooms before the scallops, then added them to the pasta. Also, had no romano, so used parmesan. Served stir-fried baby bok choy with this. We both thought overall it was very good.
Caroline09 Posted: 11/24/09
We love scallops and I thought this was really good. I'm adding it to our regular rotation. I forgot to save the pasta water, so I used some of the juice that the scallops created after I took them off the stove. I know the recipe said to cook 1 min each side, but I did 2 because I didn't want to worry they were undercooked. I thought 2 was perfect. Served with a side of brussel sprouts.
msalinas120 Posted: 10/13/09
Scallops can be a pretty penny, however, I must say this dish was completely worth it!! We didn't use the lemon and added string green beans with Kosher salt. Take the time to make this outstanding dish.
acsmith321 Posted: 08/03/10
This was a great weeknight meal-especially on a blistering hot day! It was so quick and delicious. The pasta was light and the basil added that special taste of freshness to the dish. The scallops were perfect with 2 minutes per side and had a beautiful sear on them. The key here is a scalding hot pan and do not touch them once they have been placed in the pan! I served this with a mixed greens salad and veggies straight from our garden with a light olive oil and lemon juice dressing. I would highly recommend this and will definitely make again!
Emz101 Posted: 05/06/13
This was amazing. The fresh pasta makes such a difference. I used parm since that's what I had on hand and added some peas to the pasta. 1 Min per side for the scallops was perfect. Would def make this again.
