After teaching drawing and watercolor for almost two decades as a creative practice and path to self-realization, I've added transformational coaching programs.
Life is the First Art offers a selections of coaching programs to help creatives and women at midlife reframe their experience, redefine themselves, and gain clarity about problems, solutions and inner resistance.
Introduced to watercolor at the age of five, I've been privately commissioned for most of my work over the past thirty-five years, have been featured in solo and group shows in Los Angeles, Sarasota, FL, Charleston and Edisto Island, SC, Petersburg and Culpeper, VA, Nashville, TN, Asheville and Raleigh, NC. My paintings are in private collections throughout the US and Europe.
I've taught my signature workshop and courses in Basic Drawing and Watercolor throughout New England, California, Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Between 1993 and 2005, I recorded five critically acclaimed albums of songs and toured extensively throughout the US and Europe. My best known songs include The Roswell Incident and The 3 Dreams of J. Robert Oppenheimer. During these years, I created performance programs on song for adults and children through state and local library systems throughout New England, Illinois, Florida, South Carolina, and Virginia including Out Under the Sky on the origins and history of the Christmas carol.
Community service work includes creating and spearheading The Spirit of the Gulf Challenge, an artists response to the Deepwater Horizon oil disaster, founding and directing the national community drawing initiative, Drawing America, producing Big Draws in Nashville, TN, and other cities (including Asheville, NC, Atlanta, GA, Chicago, IL, Merion, PA, and Monterey, CA) and acting as juror in the Drawing and Printmaking categories for the Scholastic Art Competition.
Additional creative work includes design partnership in a museum exhibit firm, writing and producing my original play with music at the Asolo Repertory Theater, and a visual history of Sarasota, Florida through its residential architecture for the city's centennial, plus contributions to various world and experimental music projects.
My business and organizational experience includes staff and administrative support at MIT for the Office of the President under Charles M. Vest, for three chairs of the MIT faculty, for the MIT Media Lab Music & Physics Group, and roles as Investment Research Librarian for David H. Murdock's private holding company, as secretary to Sarah Vaughan, and as a US delegate for President Carter to the People's Republic of the Congo. Further production experience includes support for McCabe's Guitar Shop concerts and La Musica di Asolo Festivals. My work life started as a teenager for music publisher Theodore Presser Company under Arnold Broido.
I studied fine art, design, and art history at The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Santa Monica College, Ringling School of Art & Design, and earned a BA in Humanities (Drama, Art and Music) from New College of Florida. I grew up within walking distance of The Barnes Foundation, where I was deeply influenced at an early age by Dr. Barnes and his collection. Throughout my teens, I was educated in itinerant folk tradition, singer songwriter form and acoustic guitar styles while perched on the narrow radiator against the back wall of The Main Point.
Raised by devout Irish Catholics and educated at private convent schools in a region forged by Quakers, my spiritual approach to the creative process is also influenced by decades of daily yoga practice, years of listening to Alan Watts, direct study with Ram Dass and Pema Chodron, over a decade of Kundalini Yoga training and Shambhala Training completed at Karma Cholling in 1994.

Skin DM Review: How Effective Is This Product?
What You Should Know About This Product
You won't have to risk cosmetic surgery with Skin DM, which offers dramatic improvements without the heavy price tag. Look forward to younger, smoother skin without the impurities that can age the skin. The official website for Skin DM claims that it offers a risk free trial, but the link is broken. The natural ingredients in this product include Aloe Vera, Safflower Extract, Green Tea Extract, and Vitamin E.
Ingredients Contained In The Product
Collagen, Vitamin E, Safflower Extract, Green Tea Extract, and Aloe Vera.
Skin DM – Product Description
Collagen is used throughout skin care products to plump skin's cells. As the body grows older, so does the skin and the production of collagen and elastin reduces. This can cause premature aging. Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant and protects the skin from free radical damage. Safflower Oil is a natural emollient full of Essential Fatty Acids. Aloe Vera is used in skin care products for its anti-aging properties, but it is also cooling against sun-damaged skin and enhances the production of elastin and collagen fibers. Skin DM is available in a spray bottle and can be used 2 to 3 times per week. It does not promise instant results, but some users will notice a visible effect in several days whilst others will notice fine lines are visibly reduced overnight. The official website is skindm.net.
Skin DM – Advantages
- Skin DM encourages the production of collagen and elastin.
- The ingredients are nourishing for the skin.
- There is one before and after picture.
Skin DM – Drawbacks
- There is an official website, but it does not link to a free trial of Skin DM.
- The manufacturer is not known.
- The full ingredients are not disclosed.
- The link to the free trial is broken.
- The price of the product is not known.
- No clinical data is provided.
Skin DM – The Bottom Line
Skin DM is lacking further information since the official website is very basic and does not link to the free product trial offer. Choose a product that lists the full ingredients and provides clinical data linking to its effectiveness.

But on a serious note, people need to get their self together. This is messed up. Then to make matters worst he had his finger pretty much ripped off.
Guess I should put my future iPad in a generic bag before I come out of the store.
But, yeah, that really sucks.
I hope this doesn't start a trend of iPad thefts.
im sure he'll get caught and have his a** wipped hope they damage his fingertips so he can use his stolen ipad with his tongue
how unfortunate. i hope whoever gets caught. doesnt the ipad have like a serial number that can be traced to whoevers using it?
Same thought crossed my mind though, I'm wondering how it would hold in court if you blasted this low life and claimed self defense after he ripped half your finger off while stealing at least $500 worth of stuff from you. It doesn't look like Colorado has a castle doctrine in place.
The stupidity of people these days never ceases to amaze me, I mean if your going to rob someone at least cover your face and I'm pretty sure it's common sense not to rob someone in broad daylight.
I hope he gets the punishment he deserves. Doesn't really matter what race the person is it just reinforces the fact that there are thieve about and people need to be more aware.
I doubt a person of his "caliber" will be using it. I'm
sure he already has cash for
his next crack rock.
nice to see they have video of the guy. that means he will be caught, he will be prosecuted, and then he will be raped in jail.
justice served.
After Hearing about those stories, it occurred to me, that severe punishment as at Middle Ages should be reactivated.
it's so hard to believe, yet possible, that he didn't get caught in daylight, though here lots of iphones have been stolen and people jumped by the busiest road, and bus stop in daylight so guess it happens... so sad really =/ it makes me worried to take my ipad anywhere hah
The 'breakaway' bag is a good idea. Bringing people with you is another good idea (I always wanted a 'posse'). Another one I just had is to give complementary dye-packs with the purchase. The 'safety' for the dye-pack is pulled when someone grabs the bag: no trouble finding the suspect after that.
Something I learned from this story: let FedEx or UPS take the risk -- shopping online may save your pinky!
hopefully the robber doesn't sell it. Apple can provide the device information and I am sure it can be tracked once activated.
One quick shot...boom!

"Chaos already dominates enough of our lives. The universe is an endless, raging sea of randomness. Our job isn't to fight it, but to weather it together on the raft of life. A raft held together by those few, rare, beautiful things that we know to be predictable.

And Jeff will forever remain a conniving son of a bitch.
this scene is just golden because tony was never planning to reveal his identity as iron man. but right when blondie laughs and says 'i never said you were a superhero', she obviously hit a nerve and tony literally goes 'alright, you wanna play? i can play', LOOKS HER STRAIGHT FUCK IN THE EYE, AND TELLS THE WHOLE WORLD HE'S IRON MAN. A SUPERHERO.

Mini-jumps are designed to give your children (and their pets!) hours of fun whilst encouraging exercise and healthy competition. The original jumps (shown in the video on the right) which are now called Mini-Jumps classic were launched in 2006 after two years development. They were an instant hit, making the Horse and Hound magazine top 20 gifts for children that year (at number 2- it was hard to beat a babygrow in the shape of a horse...:-).
Over the years we have had our own thoughts on how we could improve our jumps even more and plenty of input from our users, many of whom write in with suggestions. These improvements have been developed into first, our crossbars and now our new Pro uprights.
The units are now about as outdoor proof as you can reasonably get (although we still recommend putting away after use to avoid a trip hazard or getting accidentally mown...). The jumps work if jumped in either direction and the crossbar height is fully adjustable quickly even by little hands.
In parallel with these improvements, we have never lost sight of the priority ingredient- safety. All the features that make them safe for children to use either remain or are enhanced. Finally, they are still available in two sizes for younger and older jumpers as most of our users come back for a bigger challenge as they grow a little older and a lot taller.
We ask that you investigate this website and become conversant with all of the features and benefits of Mini-Jumps and you can order securely online, call us or utilise traditional mail.
The video shows Mini-jumps classic jumps in action.
The crossbar rests are infinitely adjustable for height. Just squeeze the arms together and slide them to the desired position.
You can find out why Mini-jumps are the size they are and which one to choose on the Which size to choose page.
The light but rigid crossbars displace if bumped into from either direction.
For extra stability on rough terrain or in strong winds, the base can be filled with sand (permanent) or water (temporary).
Your Mini-Jumps are weather proof but we recommend putting them away after use. It stops them being tripped over, chewed by pets or the lawnmower mowing them

India sees decline in maternal and child deaths: Lancet
Two-thirds of the global decline in child deaths since 2000 occurred in just nine countries - India, China, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, Brazil, Afghanistan, and Nigeria, a new study in Lancet has revealed.
In 2000, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were established by the United Nations to drive maternal and child deaths down by 2015. Child and maternal deaths had been falling in most countries since the 1980s, but the pace accelerated after the goals were set. If countries continue on this course, child deaths will fall from more than 6 million in 2013 to fewer than 4 million in 2030.
The first installment in IHME's new updates to the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study finds that child death rates dropped by 48 per cent globally between 1990 and 2013.
However, 6.3 million children still died before their fifth birthday in 2013. Maternal deaths fell significantly over the same period, though 293,000 women still died in 2013 from pregnancy-related causes. The vast majority of countries have seen accelerated reductions in maternal and child deaths - with child deaths declining by 3.5 per cent per year since 2000 and maternal deaths by 2.7 per cent per year since 2003.
Forty-five countries, including 27 in the developing world, are on track to meet the MDG 4 target of reducing child death rates by two-thirds of 1990 levels by 2015, while only 16 countries - most in Central and Eastern Europe - are likely to achieve the MDG 5 target of a 75 per cent reduction in their 1990 maternal death rate by 2015.
A separate IHME study found that donor spending on maternal and child health grew substantially since 2000, indicating that the decline in deaths comes at a time of increased investment.
The leading cause of maternal death globally is medical complications of childbirth and the period post-delivery. Approximately one-quarter of maternal deaths were found to occur during childbirth and the 24 hours following. Another quarter happen during pregnancy, and the remaining deaths occur up to one year after delivery. Globally, HIV accounts for less than one out of every 100 maternal deaths, but in southern sub-Saharan Africa the virus causes 6.2 per cent of deaths during pregnancy and childbirth.
The results from two separate studies, 'Global, regional, and national levels of neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality during 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013' and 'Global, regional, and national levels and causes of maternal mortality during 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013' has been published in The Lancet.

A McKettrick Christmas
Lizzie McKettrick is homebound with a Christmas Eve surprise for her family--Whitley Carson. He might seem too interested in the McKettrick money, but she's certain Whitley cares for her. But fate has a surprise for Lizzie--Morgan Shane. When their train is stranded by an avalanche the handsome doctor takes charge with Lizzie by his side. With faith, hard work and some unexpected help, it might be a joyous McKettrick family Christmas after all.
A Creed Country Christmas
In Montana, Lincoln Creed is up against more than rustlers, wolves and storms. The widowed rancher must find a suitable governess who won't set her sights on him for his daughter, Gracie. Disowned for her refusal to marry, young schoolteacher Juliana Mitchell seems like a perfect fit. As she gets to know Lincoln and Gracie, Juliana suddenly doesn't feel so strongly against marriage. In the season of miracles, Providence might find a way to bring these souls together.
From the book
December 22, 1896
Lizzie McKettrick leaned slightly forward in her seat, as if to do so would make the train go faster. Home. She was going home, at long last, to the Triple M Ranch, to her large, rowdy family. After more than two years away, first attending Miss Ridgely's Institute of Deportment and Refinement for Young Women, then normal school, Lizzie was returning to the place and the people she loved--for good. She would arrive a day before she was expected, too, and surprise them all--her papa, her stepmother, Lorelei, her little brothers, John Henry, Gabriel, and Doss. She had presents for everyone, most sent ahead from San Francisco weeks ago, but a few especially precious ones secreted away in one of her three huge travel trunks.
Only her grandfather, Angus McKettrick, the patriarch of the sprawling clan, knew she'd be there that very evening. He'd be waiting, Lizzie thought happily, at the small train station in Indian Rock, probably at the reins of one of the big flat-bed sleighs used to carry feed to snowbound cattle on the range. She'd warned him, in her most recent letter, that she'd be bringing all her belongings with her, for this homecoming was permanent--not just a brief visit, like the last couple of Christmases.
Lizzie smiled a mischievous little smile. Even Angus, her closest confidant except for her parents, didn't know all the facts.
She glanced sideways at Whitley Carson, slumped against the sooty window in the seat next to hers, huddled under a blanket, sound asleep. His breath fogged the glass, and every so often, he stirred fitfully, grumbled something.
Alas, for all his sundry charms, Whitley was not an enthusiastic traveler. His complaints, over the three days since they'd boarded the first train in San Francisco, had been numerous.
The train was filthy.
There was no dining car.
The cigar smoke roiling overhead made him cough.
He was never going to be warm again.
And what in God's green earth had possessed the woman three rows behind them to undertake a journey of any significant distance with two rascally children and a fussy infant in tow?
Now the baby let out a pitiable squall.
Lizzie, used to babies because there were so many on the Triple M, was unruffled. Whitley's obvious annoyance troubled her. Although she planned to teach, married or not, she hoped for a houseful of children of her own someday--healthy, noisy, rambunctious ones, raised to be confident adults and freethinkers.
It was hard, in the moment, to square the Whitley she was seeing now with the kind of father she had hoped he would be.
The man across the aisle from her laid down his newspaper, stood and stretched. He'd boarded the train several hours earlier, in Phoenix, carrying what looked like a doctor's bag, its leather sides cracked and scratched. His waistcoat was clean but threadbare, and he wore neither a hat nor a sidearm--the absence of both unusual in the still-wild Arizona Territory.
Although Lizzie expected Whitley to propose marriage once they were home with her family, she'd been stealing glances at the stranger ever since he entered the railroad car. There was something about him, beyond his patrician good looks, that constantly drew her attention.
His hair was dark, and rather too long, his eyes brown and intense, bespeaking formidable intelligence. Although he probably wasn't a great deal older than Lizzie, who would turn twenty on her next birthday, there was a maturity in his manner and countenance that intrigued her. It was as though he'd lived many other lives, in other times and places, and extracted...
About the Author-
In 2006, New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller left the Arizona horse property she's called home for the past five years and listened to the call of her heart. Packing up her dogs, Sadie and Bernice, and her four horses, the author of more than seventy novels bid farewell to her home in the desert and returned to the place of her birth, Spokane, Washington.
The daughter of a town marshal, Linda grew up in Northport, WA, a community of 500 on the Columbia River, 120 miles north of Spokane. Her childhood remembrances include riding horses and playing cowgirl on her grandparents' nearby farm. Her grandparents' spread was so rustic that in the early days it lacked electricity and running water.
As delightful as this childhood was, Linda longed to see the world. After graduating as valedictorian of her high school class, she left to pursue her dream at the age of eighteen. Because of the success of her writing career, Linda was able to live part-time in London for several years, spend time in Italy and travel to such far-off destinations as Russia, Hong Kong and Israel. Now, Linda says, the wanderlust is (mostly) out of her blood, and she's come full circle, back to the people and the places she knows and loves.
Before Linda begins her writing day, she takes her first cup of coffee while enjoying the scenic view of the wooded draw behind her new home. The first morning there, a snowfall blanketed the pine trees, something she had missed in the desert outside Scottsdale. Still enamored with the people she came to love in Arizona, she says she will still set books in that starkly beautiful area, and, of course, Washington.
Devoted to helping others pursue their dreams, the author will launch her seventh round of the Linda Lael Miller Scholarships for Women in May 2007. A talented speaker, she donates all her speaking honoraria to her scholarship fund. The stipends are awarded to women who seek to better their lot in life through education.
It's no wonder the protagonists in Miller's novels are women her readers admire for their honor, courage, trustworthiness, valor and determination to succeed, despite overwhelming odds. "These qualities make them excellent role models for young women," Miller explains. "The male leads possess equally noble traits that today's woman would be delighted to find in her life's mate."
The author traces the birth of her writing career to the day when a Northport teacher told her that the stories she was writing were good, that she just might have a future in writing. Later, when she decided to write novels, she endured her share of rejection before she made her first sale.

Some fun (mutter, mutter, mumble, mumble).
I finally found the problem. When I plugged in the reset switch connector and turned the machine on, the leprechuns were back. I'm thinking, "Oh no (censored version), replacing that switch is going to be a bugger." Then, on an inexplicable impulse, I tried reversing the connector, then turning the machine back on. That fixed it. Go figure; I though there was no polarity on those switches. The connector certainly isn't marked polarized.
But then I noticed the fans on the GPU weren't spinning and the case speaker was was giving me a long beep followed by three short beeps, then after a long pause, a long beep followed by four short beeps, a short pause, then another short beep. According to the manual, the first beeps indicate no VGA. I'm thinking, "OK, the monitor isn't hooked up." The manual says that a long beep followed by four short beeps indicates a hardware failure (what was with the additional short beep?) so now I'm thinking, "Great! I killed the GPU card!" Before planning the funeral, I took a closer look and discovered the PCIe power cable was still disconnected. I had left it floating in the air by the socket and, from the angle I had been looking, it had looked like it was plugged in. I plugged it in, fired up the machine, and eventually got the single beep I was supposed to get. Whooo hooo! (Doing happy dance )
The next step is to wrestle the boat anchor (from the QE2, no less) back to my desk (actually, a night stand by the daek where my old desktop resided) so I can hook up the monitor and keyboard/mouse (the keyboard is hardwired to the USB and has a port I can plug in the receiver for my wireless mouse). I'm definitely going to wait until tomorrow to do that. It's late, I'm tired, and my arms and back are still less than happy with me. At least I'll sleep a whole sight better knowing the episode of the errent screw and bass-ackwards connector is finally over.

I didn't get the machine moved to the nightstand by my desk until this evening because we had some serious winds and thunderstorms, including pea sized hail, that were actually shaking my mobile home. I kept the power plugs on it and my notebook pulled in case of a lightning strike (it was hitting all around us).
It's been running for about three hours now. I've just been exploring the UEFI BIOS a bit and watching the CPU temps. I've done very little in a BIOS in the past and UEFI is totally brand new to me. The CPU has been staying at 42-44°C; ambient has been fluctuating between 23° and 24°C. Keep in mind the case is open on both sides and there is no OS installed yet. I would prefer seeing 5-10°C less but, since the CPU fan is loafing at 655-665 rpm, it may not rise all that much when I start putting the CPU to work. I also set the RAM to run at 1600 and it's running 9-9-9-24. It also sees my SSD, the only drive that's hooked up.
Since you all are hungry for pictures, here is one of the bad boy UPS I have the machine plugged into:
The power wiring in the mobile home court I live in is less than stellar, mostly due to the incompetent electricians our slumlord used to have under contract. Fortunately, the current manager convinced him to replace the idiots (I've got a few horror tales about them) with some that are much better. We had some outages last summer (several hours worth every two days for a couple of weeks) that the new guys eventually tracked down to an improper underground splice done by the idiots sometime in the past (intermittant failures can be a bugger to find). We had another one a couple, three months ago when the overhead feeding the 12KV into the park's underground blew up (literally) and the power company had to cut gaps and string a new conductor. So I decided to get a UPS. It's bigger than I need but I should be future-proofed. It has the capability to safely shut down the computer before the power runs out.

That's one scary looking UPS there Britton30, 8 outputs? I'd love one, we lose power very often where I stay... I've got a tiny UPS, literally gives me enough time to save my work and shut down before it dies.
Anyway, I've been keeping up to date with the thread, but now I finally have something to post.. I can't quite afford to get my dream system just yet, but I did just finalise a deal to get a bit of an upgrade.
So, sometime during the coming week I should be running a Phenom II x4 975BE on a MSI 990FXA-GD65 board with a Patriot G2 2x4GB 1600MHz CL9 ram kit. Should be a nice improvement over my current rig hey, on the CPU power side alone I'll be going from a gross of 7.8GHz (3-core 2.6GHz) to 14.4GHz (4-core 3.6GHz). Hehe... Can't wait.

Lady Fitzgerald, Nice UPS. Leaves you plenty of head room to expand. That means your building is not over. That's good news. Congrats on the new build. Well done. But, if you're like me, you're happy about the new build, but sad that it's over. If you have the habit as bad as I do, there's nothing better than having the build done and hearing that first POST beep. But, when I hear that beep is when I start thinking about the next build. It's addictive. You did a great job and deserve congratulations.
@Zalith. Sounds like a very nice upgrade for you. Good job. I know you will be happy with the improved performance. Sounds like it will be a killer rig, but we demand a lot of pictures. You have to remember, a lot of us have the addiction real bad. So, when we aren't building, looking at pictures of others builds helps
reduce the anxiety, just a little bit.. We love pictures. Can't wait to see more of Lady Fitzgreald's build and yours to hold off the beast a little. It sounds like you are going to have a pretty strong build. Well done.
Both of you need to get busy and change your system specs to the new and improved ones.

I may end up re-thinking my colour scheme at some point. Green LED fans and a black case fits my current XFX board beautifully, but the MSI is blue and black... Might need new fans... And a new CPU cooler (CNPS9900DF looks nice)...
Hmmm...... So many choices.

Enterprise Business Productivity Blog
Today's guest blog post is from Andrew Kisslo, Group Manager, on the Office 365 team. He provides insight into what CIOs should know about the cloud, and specifically Office 365.
With the recent release of the Microsoft Office 365 public beta, I've been getting a lot of questions from C-suite executives about the benefits of Microsoft's web-enabled business productivity solution. What should I know about it? And how does it compare to competitive solutions? While there are many important benefits about the cloud and Office 365, here are five things every CIO should know:
1. The cloud can reduce costs. When talking about the cloud, technology leaders often take a laser focus on user license costs alone. It's important to take a more holistic view on the financial benefits. First make sure you factor in all of your existing costs, including hardware, power, even cost per square foot to internally house servers. Migrating your business productivity applications to the cloud certainly reduces the number of servers you need to buy, maintain, and upgrade. On average, we believe a customer could save 30% on email costs alone by going to the cloud. As an added benefit, some customers are able to treat cloud subscriptions as operating expenses rather than capital expenditures, which can translate into more predictable expenses over the long term.
2. Microsoft delivers the cloud on your terms . Whether you want your computing environment completely in the cloud, entirely on premises, or a mix of both, we offer the solution that fits your needs. Office 365 is designed to work with your existing infrastructure so you can avoid an "all or nothing" deployment for the cloud. Customers who have enterprise agreements (EA) with Microsoft can use the EA Amendments to leverage existing licenses, which Gartner believes could facilitate cloud adoption. Such flexibility gives decision makers the ability to handle diverse business challenges such as on-boarding employees from a merger or acquisition, deploying solutions for a faraway subsidiary, or even targeting specific employee segments such as factory workers for cost-effective IT projects.
3. Office 365 can democratize IT. Office 365 comes in a wide variety of editions so enterprises can provide the right capabilities to specific employee groups. In fact, companies such as Hyatt Hotels & Resorts and Codelco (a mining company) are using the cloud as a cost-effective way to bring workers such as maintenance staff and miners, who were once disenfranchised from IT, into their information network. There's no need for a cork board in the lunchroom anymore. At the same time, these companies can use Office 365 enterprise editions or on-premises solutions for their information workers. As a result, everyone is on the same page and IT becomes the hero for providing cost-effective IT solutions that drive better business strategy.
4. Office 365 is familiar and secure across the PC, phone or browser. Today's reality is that IT is being asked to support an increasingly diverse set of computing platforms. Choice is good for all but it can come with added costs around things like re-training employees or basic document exchange issues across platforms. This is why we support broader access while providing familiar tools for employees. For example, we now support Outlook as the email client in Office for Mac 2011. Office Web Apps also work across IE, Firefox, Safari and even Google Chrome, which means workers can now do lightweight editing from any computer without the need to have an Office license installed on the machine. Finally, since Exchange ActiveSync is the industry standard for mobile device management on iPhones, Symbian, Android and, of course, Windows Phone 7 devices, IT can feel confident about enforcing remote mobile access with up to 40 security policies such as pin lock.
5. Microsoft delivers enterprise-level support. Moving part of your IT workload to the cloud essentially requires contracting out the support that goes along with it. At Microsoft, we take the responsibility seriously. When we say we're committed to providing top-level support, we really mean it. This goes beyond 24 x 7 phone numbers—it also means robust service dashboards, support ticketing engines and of course a 99.9% SLA with meaningful penalties such as up to 100% credit for outages. Other vendors such as Google cap their maximum credit at two weeks, regardless of their impact to your business. That seems to benefit the vendor rather than the customer.
These are some of the many reasons why Office 365 is gearing up to be the solution of choice among enterprises. Already, more than 40 million paid users leverage Microsoft online services and solutions. These include 500 government agencies, 13 of the 20 top telecommunications firms, 15 of the top 20 global banks, and 16 of the top 20 global pharmaceutical companies.
Has your organization signed up for the Office 365 beta ? We'd love to hear your experience.
I think Office 365 is the obvious choice. It seems custmizable and obviously robust. We are looking forward to using it it within our enteprise.

G250 Avionics Test Rig Logs 1,000 Hours
Gulfstream's G250 integration test facility (ITF) in Savannah, Ga., has logged more than 1,000 hours of testing of the PlaneView250 avionics software load that will be the basis for securing the super-midsize business jet's initial type certificate next year. Gulfstream reached the milestone just four months after evaluation of the Rockwell Collins-provided software began. The PlaneView250 flight deck is based on Collins's Pro Line Fusion avionics system. According to Gulfstream senior vice president of programs, engineering and test Pres Henne, "This test facility is a critical step in bringing this aircraft to market, because it allows us to integrate, test and make adjustments on the ground." The G250 facility is the first of its kind for midsize jets at Gulfstream, though the company launched the ITF concept with the large-cabin GV and used similar facilities for the G450 and G550. "It allows us to do the testing in a safe environment and at a much quicker pace," said Mark Kohler, G250 program director. The G250 ITF was first powered up on Nov. 20, 2007, and had its first simulated flight on July 7, 2008.

DHS buys software as part of Einstein 3 deployment
Tuesday - 12/27/2011, 11:32am EST
The Homeland Security Department has been experimenting with the Einstein 3 intrusion prevention cybersecurity software for almost three years. Now it looks as if the agency is ready to move beyond the test phase.
DHS bought about $20 million worth of software from TIBCO Federal Services earlier this year as part of its plan for broader deployment of the Einstein 3 program.
"With our messaging software, we have adapters that will allow all the users to connect all the different systems and components of the cyber stack back up to the enterprise bus, and then we bring the information together in real time," said Dick Martin, president of TIBCO federal. "By accessing the information for all the different systems in real time, we can react more quickly."
Under the five-year deal, DHS can distribute the TIBCO messaging software to the civilian agencies at no extra cost as they deploy the advanced cybersecurity system.
DHS would not comment on the software deal and didn't respond to multiple requests for comments about Einstein 3 more broadly.
But in its Privacy Impact Assessment from March 2010, DHS wrote, Einstein 3 "will draw on commercial technology and specialized government technology to conduct real-time full packet inspection and threat-based decision-making on network traffic entering or leaving these executive branch networks. The goal of Einstein 3 is to identify and characterize malicious network traffic to enhance cybersecurity analysis, situational awareness and security response. It will have the ability to automatically detect and respond appropriately to cyber threats before harm is done, providing an intrusion prevention system supporting dynamic defense."
DHS asked Congress for more than $200 million for the Einstein program in the fiscal 2012 budget request. Congress allocated $229 million for network security deployment in the 2012 omnibus bill passed earlier this month, but didn't specifically call out the Einstein program. Congress also authorized $79.1 million for U.S. CERT and $35 million for federal network security. Overall, DHS will receive $443 million for cyber activities in 2012.
DHS implemented Einstein at all agencies and Einstein 2 at 15 agencies plus on the four Networx telecommunications Managed Trusted Internet Providers networks.
The decision to buy TIBCO software signals a plan to move out more broadly with Einstein 3.
Martin said the TIBCO software will help minimize the threats from intrusions and also will help eliminate intrusions to begin with.
"Right now, if an agency has a variety of different point products to help protect their networks, the information from each one of these, by the time you get it, the intrusion has already happened and the damage is done," Martin said. "What we do is we connect in real time to each and every one of these point products, and we bring the information up to a control center. We can determine based on the nature of the threats if it's real and then we have a rules engine that will automatically take action against that intrusion."
TIBCO's messaging software already is in place across several agencies, including the Army and the Air Force.
Martin said the Air Force, for instance, has been able to minimize the effects of cyber attacks by getting data at "machine speed" instead of the six weeks it used to take.
"The intention and focus with Einstein 3 is with the civilian agencies," he said. "There also are some plans in the near future to protect the networks in the Defense Industrial Base. And in the long-term, there are other industries outside the federal government, such as the finance industry and the energy grid, that need cybersecurity help. There are no contracts for the Defense industrial base or for any of the other outside industries yet, but the future forward is clearly going in that direction."

Officials at a suburban Cincinnati high school have reversed their decision to cancel the performance of a play that had been objected to by the NAACP.
The play is based on a 1939 Agatha Christie novel that included an offensive slur in the title. The story involves strangers trapped on an island with a murderer who kills them one by one.
The play version has been performed under the names "Ten Little Indians" and "Then There Were None." That's the name Lakota East High School will use. And the performances will include some additional materials and other activities to honor diversity.
The head of the NAACP's southwest Ohio branch spoke out against the initial production, saying the book's title made it inappropriate.
The school superintendent says he's allowing the play to go on so it can be used as a "learning vehicle."

DRM Issues: Windows Expert Looking to Move to Linux
Security expert Jesper Johansson is planning to remove Windows Media Center from his computer and to install Linux MCE due to frustration with his former employer Microsoft's DRM software.
Prior to moving to Amazon in September 2006, Johansson was Senior Program Manager for security with Microsoft. He publicly vented his frustration with Windows Media Center in his blog referring to the "Blue Screen of DRM Death", or the death of Windows Media Center. Johansson's frustration was triggered by his attempts to get a cable network video system to run on the machine. Shortly after the movie launched, the image was replaced by a blue DRM screen. Several unsuccessful attempts to resolve the issue followed, however, the machine kept on crashing after installing the Internet Explorer update for Microsoft DRM recommended by Microsoft. "Microsofts 'security update' caused a denial of service (DoS)", Johannson states. DRM fanatics made the Microsoft product completely useless, he writes. Johannson views Linux MCE as an alternative. Many users have reacted to his blog entry in the meantime, and shared their experiences with various systems, including MythTV on Ubuntu Linux. Surprised with the vehement responses, Johannson added that he had been satisfied with the Microsoft solution up to this point.

Intel Laptop Competes With One Laptop Per Child
ScuttleMonkey posted more than 7 years ago | from the highest-form-of-flattery-still-doesn't-pay-the-bills dept.347
Tracy Reed writes "According to the BBC, Intel has designed and begun marketing it's own low-cost laptop targeted at education in developing countries. 'Professor Negroponte, who aims to distribute millions of laptops to kids in developing countries, said Intel had hurt his mission "enormously". Speaking to US broadcaster CBS, Intel's chairman denied the claims. "We're not trying to drive him out of business," said Craig Barrett. "We're trying to bring capability to young people." Mr Barrett has previously dismissed the $100 laptop as a "gadget".'"

The Wall Street Journal: Metal Hip Implants Face Tighter Controls
The Food and Drug Administration is studying whether several medical devices already on the market, such as electroconvulsive therapy devices for depression and emergency defibrillators, require additional evidence to prove they're safe. As part of that re-evaluation, the federal agency on Thursday proposed that companies making so-called metal-on-metal artificial hip joints produce medical evidence demonstrating their safety in order to stay on the market (Burton, 1/17).

Are You Buying Links or Outsourcing Your Link Building?
Vertical MeasuresMarch 24, 20081 CommentLink Building link building service, link buying, outsource link building, press release, text links
It's a simple question, but plenty of people get confused by this one. There's a huge difference between outsourcing your link building and buying links. One is a simple exchange of cash for particular links. It's a straightforward transaction – you pay for a particular link; that's it.

Revival Effort
This Westport garden is flourishing again thanks to a design dream team that gave new life to an old estate.
One would think it would be intimidating to design the two-and-a-half acres that surround the English-style stone cottage, designed in 1925 by local architect Walter Bradnee Kirby, that sits atop a gentle rise on Westport's Old Hill. Add to that the fact that the Tudor Revival, with its elegant chimneys, sturdy stone walls, and rolling landscape constitute the heart of what was once the eighty-acre redoubt of an Englishman determined to establish his manor in the new world. He called it Broadview. And then Route 33 ran through it and broke it into smaller parcels.
The occupants of the house, who lucked out and acquired one of those parcels twelve years ago, that being twelve of the twenty years they've lived in the area, were relatively unfazed, however. After all, they had spent two years renovating the house with meticulous attention to detail—reclaimed red-and-black ceramic roof tiles, cautious expansions and additions to period windows to admit more light into the interior—under the guidance of Mount Kisco architect Ira Grandberg and Salt Lake City-based interior designer Anne-Marie Barton. It was during this period that they took leave of the premises.
So, following the renovation of the house, and the finalization of the hardscape—including the perfecting of a long and curving gravel drive that seduces driver and passenger alike with generous views of the house from all its most flattering angles—they were ready to address the soft stuff. Principal among those line items was to address the loss of several tall, old trees which had perished due to lightning strikes. After a few false starts, they hired their dream team. It starred themselves, and key players Grandberg and landscape designers Jim Gerrity and Matt Almy of Oliver Landscape Design in Fairfield.
Among the objectives says the owner, were to provide screens from the neighbors, to close off a driveway shared with a neighbor on the garage end of the house, and to install deer-resistant plants. In other words, they wanted to achieve the effect of being alone in the world. "We wanted the landscape to appear endless, without borders," says Gerrity.
Endless is an appropriate description for the number of outdoor venues in which residents and guests alike can observe or recreate in a variety of ways. In the circular gravel drive out front, in a ring of boxwoods there sits an urn filled with flowers and greens according to the season. It is given center stage before a façade that is both understated and authentically representative of an earlier era. English ivy crawls the walls; low boxwood hedges skirt the front wall; and myrtle provides verdant ground cover.
To the right of the building, under the shade of old trees, is a manicured oval lawn that brings to mind competitive games of croquet or a contest of lawn bowlers or amateur bocce players. The lawn is flanked by beds of tulips, allium, peonies, and geraniums, among others, in white, pink, blue, and purple only—according to the owner who eschews "hot colors." A former fountain braced by girthy 100-year-old cedars makes a dramatic focal point.
"That whole area had to be cleaned out," says Gerrity. His client agreed.
From a gentle terrace, the lawn leads to a rectangular pool measuring twenty-by-fifty feet and that features a pebble finish on its interior. Large pavers, fringed by tufts of grass, styled in that way to continue the earthy softness of the oval lawn, accommodate a set of chaises from which loungers can assess the skill of the divers at the other end of the pool. Should they require a warm-up, there's a sizable fire pit for their use. (All of the pool equipment has been concealed behind trees and shrubbery down the hill.)
"You can't even hear it," says Gerrity.
Moving around the rear of the house, a dining terrace at which one imagines organic salads, whole grain medleys, and steaks and fish from the grill being served to chatty guests in flickering candlelight, looks out on a sunken, "secret" garden that is carpeted in pea gravel, studded with birdhouses, and embellished with the phlox, anemone, and Russian sage the owner cuts for use inside. It is enclosed by iron gates with a red patina. This is the place where the sun rises. Breakfast on the terrace, anyone?
Flourishes of foliage abound. Wisteria climbs a pergola; clematis and hydrangeas adorn the stone walls; a stand of birch trees glints in the sunshine; a Japanese maple promises flaming color in season; and forsythia constitutes a bright yellow bramble. From an old beech that could likely tell a few stories, a lonely swing sways in the wind, and down below it there's a trampoline sunken into the ground for safety. There is a stewartia tree with its trademark camouflage bark that sprouts from a planter rimmed in boxwood. With its delicate flowering and colorful bark it's a softening point of interest year-round. Nearby there is also a rustic potting shed that bears signs of use.
Gerrity and Almy say that since work began in 2009, they have visited the property a few times a year, but that because the fierce storms that have struck the area in recent years have destroyed a significant number 100-year-old trees, they have been present on the property more often. Rounding out the team are Melanie Fox, who participated in the original design process at the outset, and Chandler Vinton who maintains the perennial and secret gardens, and plants bulbs in the fall and annuals in the spring, respectively.
"I think what surprised me the most was how well the client and architect were able to orchestrate a project of this size so effortlessly," says Almy. "It's pretty awesome to be a part of a project like this, work with so many professionals, and have it all come together the way it did."
Like the long, seductive drive through the property, its revitalization required a seemingly endless labor of love. But as Almy says, with the dream team in place, the victory has been sweet.

He is the Director of Uveitis Services at Nassau University Medical Center, and has been a guest lecturer at several regional hospitals, including Westchester Medical Center, Sound Shore Hospital, and Downstate Medical Center. As a professional completely dedicated to his field, Dr. Rosenbaum remains active in medical and scholarly research, and is a participating member of a number of academic and professional organizations and conferences. Dr. Rosenbaum received his medical training at New York Medical College, and has completed fellowships at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Harvard Medical School, and the Massachusetts Eye Research Surgery Institution.
I waited for about 30 minutes to see Dr. Rosenbaum, but once I got in he was very fast (not in a rushed way). He is very pleasant and makes great conversation.
Great once I saw him, but the other reviewers are correct that it takes awhile to be seen. So, go visit this doctor if you're having any eye issues, but make sure to bring something to keep you occupied while you wait!
I thought by the time i saw him from that time on it was a lovely thorough visit with assistants of his and his frank speaking to me. I also, had another test taken which i didn't have before but made for a more thorough apt. I found him bright, intelligent and very kind.t
Nice doctor. Relatively quick and efficient, and nice guy
Dr. Rosenbaum was very professional, efficient and cordial. I was pleased in the manner he communicated his diagnosis and felt confident that I was in good hands with Dr. Rosenbaum. I was also quite pleased with his staff and the overall operation of the office.
He was excellent and very thorough.
Per my client, he was good.
The computers were down so the wait was too long, but Dr. Rosenbaum was gracious and courteous. I didn't have time for a full exam, but I will go back to see him again.
Very knowledgable of his work and makes you feel at ease. The staff are also very welcoming especially the front end and I don't want to forget the technician she was very professional n courteous .
people person. rare
It was the most thorough visit I ever had. Dr. Rosenbaum and his staff were friendly, and welcoming. I highly recommend Dr Rosenbaum and have to all my friends.
It was terrible. I was there for 2 hours waiting to be tested. The doctor was not helpful in telling anyone I was going to be tested, he just dropped me off and left.
It needs to be more clear on their website or when booking the appointment that they do not do fittings for contact lenses. I wrote that this was the purpose of my visit in the notes section, but nobody read it, so I did not realize until I was in the exam room. Dr. Rosenbaum was kind enough to do an exam anyway, but I would never have booked the appointment had I realized that this wasn't within his list of services.
Very professional i really love it great dr
Very pleased. It's a keeper
Everyone was really great there, from the receptionist to the nurse and the Dr. Everyone was patient, informative and kind. Really great people, will go again.
I have been looking for an eye doctor I trust for the past 2 years and I finally found him! Thanks ZocDoc!
The doctor is very professional. I am very satisfied with my visit. I highly recommend him.
He knows his stuff
Very pleased.
Totally professional. Friendly.
Doctor Rosenbaum was very through, explained my diagnosis in simple terms for us non-doctors. Everyone in office was courteous and no waiting. Would highly recommend.
He took his time and explained to me my problem and also was very comfortable to communicate with.
Very thorough and everyone very professional
He seemed to know what he was talking about, although he did not tell me anything other than what i was able to learn about my condition online.
Appointment felt rushed
Really warm and knowledgable. Great bed side manner and helpful in explaining all my problems.
It was great doctor knows how to explain the situation a lil better
Very professional, very pleasant, and I did not feel "rushed"
I thought Dr. Rosenbaum was very professional and made me feel at ease. Going to the eye doctor usually freaks me out but he made me feel comfortable. He was happy to answer any questions I had. I felt confident he knew what he was talking about. I would definitely go back for any eye issues I may have in the future and would recommend him to my peers.
Dr. Rosenbaum was very kind, understanding, direct, and soft-spoken. It was my first visit, and I could feel right away that I could trust him with my eyes.
Very nice!
The visit went well,the receptionist was awesome.
We found Dr. Rosenbaum extremely competent, compassionate, helpful.
It was pretty nice,the staff is great and the place is very nice & clean.

Looking back to a classic to see into the future, THE RABBLE's mutated tale / transcends nature.
