4 Executive Summary The goal of this document is to serve as a guide for the implementation of ICT security architecture in the Norwegian higher education (HE) sector. The recommendations are based on best practice, risk assessments, regulatory and commercial requirements, and directives issued by the Norwegian Data Inspectorate (Datatilsynet), with a major emphasis on existing practices. The target group comprises ICT and network managers at HE institutions. The project group has been made up of the following personnel: Gunnar Bøe, Per Arne Enstad, Øyvind Eilertsen, Vidar Faltinsen, Kenneth Høstland, Morten Knutsen, Torgrim Lauritsen, Rune Sydskjør (all from UNINETT), Stig-Henning Verpe, and Arild Nybraaten (NTNU). 4
5 1 Document Goal The goal of this document is to define an overall architecture that will enable HE organisations to appropriately protect their information and information systems. Key requirements for information security include: Confidentiality (information is not made available or disclosed to unauthorized individuals, entities, or processes). Integrity (information is accurate and complete). Accessibility (information is accessible and usable upon demand by an authorized entity). It is a prerequisite that the organisation in question has prepared an information security policy that specifies its overall security objectives, decisions, and priorities. 2 Overall requirements An ICT security architecture for the HE sector must meet the following overall requirements: Institutions must provide adequate protection for their information assets. Security and risk levels must be well-established at the management level and based on risk assessments. The ICT systems must comply with the institution s information security policy. Consideration must be given to relevant regulatory requirements and directives, such as the EU directive on privacy and electronic communication (2002/58/EC) and local legislation. The security architecture must comply with the institution s objectives as stipulated in [appropriate local legislation], and with any agreements the institution may have with third parties. The ICT systems must be equipped with appropriate capacity and adequate robustness in the event of failure (resilience). The ICT systems must have sufficient quality. 5
6 3 The security architecture The security architecture is based on the following principles: The network must be subdivided into zones and security classes. There should be a clear separation between servers and clients. Servers and clients must be placed in relevant security classes based on risk assessments. Access to services must be controlled by appropriate security barriers. Virtual servers and clients must be handled according to the same principles as other units. 3.1 Subdivision into zones, security classes and segments The subdivision into zones and classes must be based on risk assessments. The system owner is responsible for the classification and placement of the system. The subdivision into zones is an underlying principle for the security architecture. A zone defines a minimum level of security. It is recommended to employ three zones: Open, Internal, and Secure zone. HE institutions may choose to implement additional zones according to requirements and risk assessments. A zone at a given security level should have no access to a zone at a higher security level, unless specific permission has been granted. A zone at a given security level does not necessarily have access to a zone at a lower security level. Each zone contains one or more network segments, cf. Figure 1. Network segments within a specific zone may operate under different security criteria. Segments within a specific zone operating under common security criteria may be grouped together in a security class. Network segments in the same zone or security class are not necessarily mutually accessible. Figure 1: An example of a subdivision into zones and network segments. 6
7 3.2 Security barriers A security barrier represents a set of conditions that must be met in order to gain access to resources located in a given zone or security class. The security barrier may consist of one or more of the following elements (the list is not exhaustive): firewall/firewall functionality in a router packet filter application gateways, such as proxies and terminal servers authentication and access control VPN systems/ssl Gateways client requirements server requirements In addition, users must be made aware of their responsibilities by administrative initiatives, including policies, procedures, and training. 3.3 Zone assignment It is recommended to organise the zones as follows: Secure zone Internal zone Open zone Critical systems, i.e. systems that handle sensitive personal data or mission-critical information. The institution s internal network segments used by employees and others associated with the institution. It should not be possible to access the institution s internal segments directly from machines located outside the institution. Everything else, such as student zones, guest networks, DMZ, and personal equipment. 7
8 Figure 2: Implementation of zones and security barriers 3.4 Requirements for dedicated servers Open zone: Requirements related to good system administration, such as patching and the disabling of unnecessary services. Services located in a demilitarised zone (DMZ) should satisfy additional requirements for servers, such as security hardening and central logging. As a general rule, central logging is recommended for all dedicated servers. Internal zone: The same requirements as for the Open zone Secure zone: In addition to the requirements employed for the Internal zone, additional measures should be considered, such as integrity checks, host-based intrusion detection, data encryption, security hardening, and central logging. 3.5 Requirements for clients In all zones, clients should be separated from dedicated servers. In other words, clients and servers should be located in different network segments. Open zone: The institution will determine the client requirements. 8
9 Internal zone: Clients must be administered centrally, i.e. only system managers have administrator privileges. Administrator privileges will not be given to standard users. Clients must comply with the institution s standards for operating systems. Client protection measures, such as antivirus software, must be updated to the latest version. Private clients, i.e. clients that are not owned nor administered by the institution, must not be located in the Internal zone. Secure zone: Clients should not be placed in the Secure zone. Clients requiring access to services in a Secure zone must be located in the Internal zone. These clients must be centrally administered and have updated client protection software. Private clients shall not have such access. Special care must be taken if remote access is permitted. 9
10 4 Authentication and access control The term access control describes a security barrier that a client must pass in order to gain access to resources hosted in a specific zone and security class. The following general principles apply: Access shall be granted on a need-to-have basis only Adequate mechanisms must be in place to enable logging and traceability. In the case of the administration of personal data, local legislation may stipulate logging of historical records for some minimum period. The same applies to other events or incidents that may be significant in terms of ICT security. Open zone: Access control for wireless networks should be implemented using eduroam or equivalent implementations of IEEE 802.1X. A separate arrangement must be put in place for guests who are not participants in eduroam. Eduroam or equivalent authentication procedures must also be employed in a wired Open zone, such as in auditoria and meeting rooms. Internal zone: All equipment connected to the network must be authenticated, e.g. using IEEE 802.1X. All users should be authenticated against a central user database. Systems that do not support central authentication must be given special protection. Secure zone: Users wishing to gain access to the Secure zone from the Internal zone must be re-authenticated or rechallenged, e.g. using an application gateway. Special care must be taken if remote access is permitted to a Secure zone, such as from an office at home. 10
11 5 The services and systems in the zoned network The system owner of a given service is responsible for determining the zone in which the service will be located and the type of protection it will be allocated. For example, it is not the job of the IT department to decide if a system should be located in the Secure zone. The system owner and IT department must work together to determine both the location and the extent of protection measures. 5.1 Open Zone The Open zone hosts services that are intended for external access. These include the network segments DMZ (demilitarised zone), guest networks, and labs, as well as the students network segments. The following subdivision is recommended for individual segments in the Open zone: DMZ A DMZ (demilitarised zone) is a network segment that is used to isolate services that are exposed to external access, and which require special protection. Services located in a DMZ may include the following: External websites and portals Reception of incoming from external networks Webmail servers External name servers (DNS, also known as an authoritative or publishing name server) VPN services for employees Guest networks A guest network is a network segment intended for guests such as customers, suppliers, and employees at other educational institutions. The institution s own employees may also use the guest network to gain easy access to the internet. In order to maintain traceability, all guest network users should be authenticated. From a security point of view, the guest network should be considered equivalent to the internet. The institution may choose to provide wireless or wired guest networks, for example in its meeting rooms and auditoria. Guest users requesting connection must accept the institution s terms and conditions of use. Institutions may choose to stipulate additional requirements, e.g. regarding the type of equipment or software utilised by the user. 11
12 5.1.3 Student services This network segment hosts services that the institution offers to students for use in their studies. Examples of such services include: Internal student services file server(s) for home directories and web applications used by students print servers Labs This network segment contains laboratory equipment, provided that such equipment does not contain personal data or other mission-critical systems or information Student client services This network segment contains clients for users registered as students at the institution. Typically, these clients only have access to the segment that hosts student service systems. 5.2 Internal zone The Internal zone hosts systems such as the technical services, administrative systems, and the management network, as well as clients who are entitled to access the services located in a Secure zone. If remote access to the Internal zone is permitted, appropriate access control mechanisms must be implemented. The institution s internal services that do not contain sensitive personal data should be placed in this zone. A recommendation for the placement of some relevant services is provided below. The list is not exhaustive Basic services System administrative services such as: system services including DHCP, NTP, SIP, and recursive DNS user databases, active directory domain controllers (AD) student services internal servers file servers for home directories used by employees the institution s internal websites calendar systems client administration systems such as SMS, SUS, antivirus, and licences 12
13 print servers Technical services Services such as technical operations that the institution depends on, such as: Building management systems (BMS). Administration systems for AV equipment Video surveillance equipment Adminstrative services Remote desktop systems that facilitate access to services in the Secure zone and systems that are used primarily for administrative tasks, including: Archiving systems Administrative systems Administrative servers that are not located in the Secure zone, such as the institution s financial management system. Risk assessments determine whether such servers should be located in the Internal or the Secure zone Management network This segment hosts network and service monitoring servers, as well as network electronics, such as switches and access points. 5.3 Secure zone All services and systems that contain sensitive personal data, and all mission-critical systems, must be located in the Secure zone Sensitive personal data All services and systems that host sensitive personal data, such as: various patient record systems administrative systems that contain sensitive personal data video surveillance recordings Mission-critical systems All services that are mission-critical or which contain mission-critical data such as: 13
14 locking systems access control research materials/contract research data back-up data other information relevant for information security, as determined by risk assessments. 14
15 6 Definitions System owner The person within in the institution that has overall responsibility for ensuring that the system is used in accordance with prevailing agreements, legislation and regulations. The system owner is responsible for defining and regulating access to data within the system, and for ensuring that the organisation has adequate user support, written procedures, and auditing routines for use of the system. Personal data Information and appraisals that can be linked to a named individual. Sensitive personal data Information regarding: racial or ethnic origin; political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs. criminal record, health-related matters, sex life or sexual orientation, trade union membership. 15

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The wait is almost over. The season is finally creeping closer again, and the annual release of preseason watch lists for the biggest awards in college football confirms it -- and helps provide a useful distraction during the final month leading up to the start of training camp.
BuckeyeNation will be tracking all the Ohio State players being tracked by the various committees and handicapping their odds of bringing trophies back to campus.
What: The nation's top running back
On the list: Ohio State senior Carlos Hyde
Credentials: At this time a year ago, Hyde was a junior who was being temporarily elevated to a starting role. The preseason attention in Ohio State's backfield was on when Jordan Hall could return from his fluky foot injury to reclaim his job. This summer, there's no question that Hyde is the top choice for the Buckeyes at tailback, even with Hall still around after redshirting last season. Hall's bad luck certainly played a part in Hyde's expanded role for the unbeaten Buckeyes, but he still had to make the most of it by consistently delivering on the physical promise that comes with a 242-pound frame that can move at a seemingly unnatural speed for his size. Hyde left little doubt that he could handle the every-down responsibility in Urban Meyer's spread offense, forming a complementary package with quarterback Braxton Miller by banging away at defenders between the tackles and blossoming into a touchdown machine in the red zone. The next phase in his development will be to make a few of those tacklers miss him instead of simply bowling them over, which should allow him to break a few longer runs and make his bid to be the first true running back under Meyer to surpass 1,000 yards a bit easier.
Head to head: Showcase opportunities against the other candidates currently being watched for the honor -- Brendan Bigelow (California), Melvin Gordon (Wisconsin), Venric Mark (Northwestern), Adam Muema (San Diego State), Branden Oliver (Buffalo), Mark Weisman (Iowa), James White (Wisconsin), Zach Zwinak (Penn State).
Odds: While Hyde is unquestionably the first option among the tailbacks, the Buckeyes have a deeper stable at their disposal this season -- including the return of a healthy Hall to help take some of the workload off the starter's shoulders. And, of course, Miller will continue to stand out as the most dynamic rusher overall for Ohio State and will be racking up plenty of yardage himself. So that could make it difficult for Hyde to make a serious push for individual hardware in his final season with the program, though cracking 1,000 yards and bulldozing to another double-digit campaign in touchdowns would surely be a nice consolation prize.

You will try to discern the OK from the great
There will be many selfies of bros with their abs
And the rugged outdoorsmen who fish and catch crabs
Some are hip with long beards and a bike with one gear
Most will talk of their time spent abroad for one year
They will brag of their journeys so far and so wide
And their hobbies including a love to hang glide
There is food to discuss: what they like, what they don't.
And restrictions thereof: what they can't, what they won't.
You go back to your own set of guidelines to eat
To decide if it even makes sense to go meet
They work hard at their jobs and they want you to know
That they love what they do. Inner angst does not show
But passions and interests and facets galore
Guaranteeing of them that you never will bore
They know art, they know music, and books and TV
Good taste on display, but of course you agree
Some come off kinda rough, self-absorbed and unkind
You swipe left through those guys 'til a sweetie you find
And you swipe and you swipe, for they all look the same!
And you land on a poem that's really quite lame
To stand out on this site is a challenge so big
And I hope Dr. Seuss is a gimmick you dig
swing dancing. In particular, I do Lindy Hop, Balboa, and Charleston.
writing. My Facebook friends seem to find my status updates entertaining. Yelp bribes me with free booze in exchange for my reviews.
cooking. To be precise, I'm really good at it only when I'm not really bad at it.
If you haven't seen What We Do in the Shadows, drop this profile and forget about me. Go watch it. Whatever potential joy you could possibly obtain through knowing me for any length of time, even a lifetime, is handily eclipsed by the hilarity of its 85 minutes. You'll thank me later.
Silicon Valley, the TV show, is shockingly accurate and hilarious. Thank you, Mike Judge. Westworld is absolutely brilliant.
Do you like jazz? Pre-bop or post-bop? If it's the former, let's chat. If it's the latter, I have lost interest in you. kthxbye
As for food, I am quite adventurous and appreciate almost everything, except for bad food. And cilantro. Don't let that vile herb come anywhere near me. I have long considered opening a restaurant called No Cilantro. It would offer a fusion of Mexican, Indian, and Vietnamese cuisines in a safe cilantro-free environment. You laugh now, but mark my words, cilantro-free is the next gluten-free.
(If you are inclined to send me a message expressing bewilderment at my aversion to cilantro, I recommend first reading some of the science behind it: http://www.flavourjournal.com/content/1/1/22
I also have had my genome sequenced, and have a confirmed anti-cilantro genotype)
Various supportive people in my life. Thanks to you. You know who you are.
Transport where I'm not the one who is driving
Good grammar
Cheese from anywhere except for Consider Bardwell Farm. I'm so over it.

Ok folks, sorry, that one wasn't original. I'll do better next time.

Peru: Machu Picchu
After a 4-hour train ride from Cuzco, we arrived in a small village called Aguas Calientes. Besides being the gateway to Machu Picchu, there is not much else going on in this little place.
As we walked around, we were always approached by locals who tried to entice us to eat or drink at their restaurants with promotions. Prices are so ridiculously set for tourists that we got specials like 4 drinks for the price of 1 or half off for food. Just remember to look at your final bill and the additional service charge written is not required.
A few pisco sour drinks later, we had to call it an early night for our ascend to Machu Picchu at dawn.
Having to wake up at 3am for anything is never nice and being welcomed by the rain, makes it even harder to get up. However, we got out of the hotel as planned and began our hike. About twenty minutes later, we arrived at a locked gate to learn that it doesn't open until 4:45am.
By the time the gate opened, there was about twenty of us waiting in the pouring rain. It was uphill the entire way. Surprisingly, we reached the gates of Machu Picchu in an hour or so.
As we made our grand entrance with soaking wet clothes and grey cloudy skies above us, it all didn't matter anymore when we were standing in front of the famous Inca ruins. We have seen so many pictures of this one spot, but in person, it was priceless.
The point of waking up so early is that they only allow a maximum of 400 people a day to have access to Wayna Picchu. This is a strenuous uphill hike that is supposed to give the best view of the valley. When we reached the top, the views were stunning even though the weather didn't get any better. The only problem was we couldn't really see through the thick fog that was covering up the ruins.
I was optimistic that the weather was going to change so we hung out on the top of the mountain for some time and to dry off our clothes. At 10 am exactly, the sun started to come out and we could see a little bit of the ruins as some of the fog moved away. At this point, we were all very happy that we were going to have some decent photos. About 30 more minutes, Mother Nature did her magic and the fog was all gone. It was just amazing to be staring down at this ancient Inca village and all of its grandeur. As we stared on for another hour, I tried to understand why this ancient city is so much more popular than the others as it is not the largest. I guess because of its unique location on top of a mountain and being surrounded by large peaks and its terrace landscape, it made it more gratifying to the eye.
We then made our way to the smaller and closer Wayna Picchu. When the view couldn't get any better, we had a dead on view of the ruins.
We left the tour of the ruins for last. As we walked around, it seemed like the lamas were set there on purpose to entertain the tourists.
Despite the rain, the tourists, the early wake up, we were very impressed by the sight of Machu Picchu and had an awesome day.

I have a windows 7 64 bit computer and keep getting this error DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL - blue dead screen
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:15 UTC
Usually driver related.
happened to me this morning when I had to reset one of our terminal servers. I had about crapped my pants! About 40ish users dead in the water. Crap!
Just reset it again and it was fine. So some driver just didn't want to load.
Just as others said, has anything been updated. If not, patch system drivers to current ..

This is usually a driver issue. Did you install any new hardware / drivers recently? Update any drivers? Windows updates change any drivers? Safe mode and uninstalling anything that changed before this error is what I would recommend. This includes USB sticks, external drives etc.
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:07 UTC
Trying updating device driver and chipset from Manufacturer website.
Its possible that external devices like USb is causing this.
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:08 UTC
I agree with Chad, this is generally a driver issue.
Analyze the memory dump to see if you can identify which one is the culprit.
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:08 UTC
I had this issue with a Dell laptop. It ended up being some HDD Free Fall Sensor driver that needed to be installed. I had trouble finding the driver on dell's support website and ended up having to chat with the support people and they provided me with a link for the download.

Definately the way to go. Start with all known recent changes and take it step by step until you find the culprit.

Feb 15, 2012 at 1:27 UTC
Check the drivers of the newly added hardware if you added one. You may also want to check your memory if you did not add anything.
And if you configured your machine to create a dump file, you can use that file to check what caused the bluescreen. Applications such as Windbg is a great help. You just have to download the symbol appropriate to the operating system you are using.
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:39 UTC
I agree with the earlier posts. The culprit is usually bad drivers.
At least you hope it is bad drivers, that can be updated, and that is usually the case.
In some cases I have found a bad capacitor on the mother board.
In fact I found one this week.
Open up that case and take a look at the motherboard.
If you see bulging or leaking capacitors, you will need to replace the mother board.
Good luck,
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:50 UTC
1st Post
As all above have said, it's likely the last driver installed.
But, there's the quick n dirty method if you don't want to dig through logs, etc...
Use: restore last known good config.
Then don't reinstall the 2 M-Audio Audiophile 192.
If you must use this device, try alternate drivers. Older/Newer/Alternative 3rd party, etc.
Feb 15, 2012 at 1:50 UTC
There's usually some stop error codes in the bsod. 0xc0000002b, 0xEXxxxxxxxx,..... google those and sometimes they can help you figure out what the cause is.
You should also check out WhoCrashed. It's a tool that parses the memory.dmp file and gives great detail about what caused it. It should spell out exactly which device is causing the problem.
I've used it a couple of times and it's been pretty solid.
Feb 15, 2012 at 4:13 UTC
Tray downloading WhoCrashed from http:/
Whenever a computer running Windows suddenly reboots without displaying any notice or blue screen of death, the first thing that is often thought about is a hardware failure. In reality, most crashes are caused by malfunctioning device drivers and kernel modules. In case of a kernel error, most computers running Windows do not show a blue screen unless they are configured to do so. Instead these systems suddenly reboot without any notice.
WhoCrashed shows the drivers which have been crashing your computer with a single click. In most cases it can pinpoint the offending drivers which have been causing misery on your computer system in the past. It does post-mortem crashdump analysis and presents all gathered information in a comprehensible way.
Normally, debugging skills and a set of debugging tools are required to do post-mortem crash dump analysis. By using this utility you do not need any debugging skills to be able to find out what drivers are causing trouble to your computer.
If your computer crashed and produced a blue screen
It is suggested that you run WhoCrashed. WhoCrashed will analyze the crash dump files available on your computer and create a conclusion. It will inform you about responsible drivers and offer suggestions on how to proceed.
Feb 16, 2012 at 8:27 UTC
As others said, DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is almost always a bug in a device driver. Specifically a driver that attempts to execute Intel Ring 0 or 1 reserved instructions or access to memory allocated from a Ring 0 or 1 section of code, but is currently running in Ring 3 will always trigger this processor exception.
On a side note, my Dell Inspiron 1721 with RAID 1 hardware throws this periodically during system startup. I'll give WhoCrashed a spin on my crash dump files.

A rough rule I go by: If you consistently have the same error on your BSOD, it is most certainly a driver problem. But, if you are presented with several different BSOD errors that you can't correlate to any one cause, it is certainly hardware.
Feb 17, 2012 at 3:48 UTC
Is this a laptop or desktop that the BSOD is happening? If it is a desktop did you add any new devices or cards to the system and use the disk supplied with the device to install the drivers? Go to the device's website and download the latest driver and install it. You should always download the latest drivers from ther vendor and not use the disk.
If it is a laptop (maybe an HP ProBook?), find the latest driver for the wireless card and install it. I had several ProBook laptops that were BSOD's intermittently with the 0x0A stop message and I upgraded the drivers on each device installed (one at a time) and waited until it BSOD again, then updated the next driver until I upgraded the wireless driver and the BSOD's stopped. Implemented the new drivers to the other laptops and all the BSOD's stopped.

Cricket Australia's chairman of selectors, Rod Marsh, made it clear none of the players picked for the postponed tour of Bangladesh should expect a start when New Zealand toured Australia this summer after he declared "open season" on selection.
"It will be [a case of] whoever is in form will be picked, as per usual," Marsh said when asked if members of the Bangladesh tour squad would be looked after. "It's business as usual."
The two-Test series against Bangladesh was postponed on Friday after Cricket Australia received advice from the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade regarding concerns for Australian "interests" in Bangladesh.
The warning was heightened after Cricket Australia's three-man security delegation returned from their fact-finding mission in Bangladesh and Islamic State claimed responsibility for the death of 50-year-old Italian aid worker Cesare Tavella, who was ambushed as he jogged through Dhaka's diplomatic quarter.
It was expected some of the players who were selected for the tour of Bangladesh – for their ability to perform in that country's unique conditions and due to players being rested – faced the cut for the New Zealand series.
"It's open season again," said Marsh. "That was the best team we could pick at that particular time. Given that we had to rest Mitchell Johnson and Josh Hazlewood, they weren't available for selection."
Marsh said he would feel sorry for any player who missed their chance to wear the baggy green because of events that were beyond the control of sporting administrators.
"You feel for blokes who would have gone on that tour and maybe even played in a Test," he said. "We'll never know who was going to play in those two Test matches. No one will never know, except perhaps me and [coach] Darren [Lehmann].
"Although, we didn't really know, either, because we didn't see the conditions. It's just a terrible shame that we couldn't go, but you can't go against what the government says. They make the rules.
"I feel very sorry for the players from both sides because I'm sure it would have been a very good contest." Marsh and the selectors picked what was called one of Australia's most inexperienced teams for Bangladesh after the retirements of Michael Clarke, Brad Haddin, Shane Watson, Chris Rogers and Ryan Harris.
The team, which included uncapped Cameron Bancroft and Andrew Fekete, had a tad more than 200 Tests between them.
Marsh had no doubt players such as Stephen O'Keefe (one Test), Joe Burns (two), Glenn Maxwell (three), Peter Nevill (four) and Usman Khawaja (nine) would be motivated to force the selectors to choose them for the opening Test against the Kiwis when it started on November 5. "I can see each and every one of them striving to put their name further forward to be chosen," he said. "And there are spots available because of the retirements. That's a matter of fact ... we will be choosing some different players, obviously. It's a healthy environment. It always is when there are spots up for grabs."
Steve Smith, who was to lead the Australian team for the first time since Michael Clarke retired after the final Test of the Ashes series, was disappointed at the postponement of the national team's first tour to Bangladesh since 2006.
"It was a new team with some new players and we were all really looking forward to getting over there and playing," Smith said.

Manchester City heads to Tottenham in the English Premier League on Sunday, seeking to build on a promising start and reduce the chances of its opponent challenging for the top four.
While big-spending City has won its two opening matches to share the lead with defending champion Manchester United and Wolverhampton Wanderers, Spurs lost their only game so far and could be seven points behind the Champions League qualifying spots by the end of the weekend.
City is likely to give Samir Nasri his debut against Tottenham, against whom he scored four goals in three games for Arsenal last season. But Spurs will be unable to do likewise with Emmanuel Adebayor after signing him on loan because league rules prohibit him from playing against his parent club.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
Wayne Conwell, the chef/owner of Sushi Sasa, is a man obsessed with details. From the precise alignment of a piece of fish on a plate to the shape of a hundred different hand rolls, nothing is too small to warrant his attention. And from his post behind the sushi bar at Sushi Sasa -- his white-on-white-on-white dream of what a great restaurant can be -- no detail escapes him. Conwell sees everyone who comes through the door, sees every plate that passes out of the kitchen, sees the surprised looks on the faces of the happy diners (except those hanging out in the downstairs lounge, of course, which is used as overflow seating when the dining room is full) as they take their first bites of his sushi or his tempura -- the raw and the cooked. This obsession with all the little things makes for a freakish kind of excellence, and also makes Sushi Sasa the new benchmark for sushi restaurants in Denver.
The very name "Chocolove" sounds like the title of a bad '70s blaxploitation flick. This chocolate is embarrassing to buy, tough to develop a taste for, and every bar comes wrapped with a love poem that's almost unforgivably cheesy. But still, we've got nothing but love for what's coming off the small-batch production line at this Boulder-based company, which reflects founder Tom Moley's dedication to sourcing the best international cocoa and combining it in surprising ways. It may not have been love at first bite, but it was close -- and now we're committed to Chocolove's dark chocolate and candied ginger bar.
Big John doesn't cook at Elway's. Although this Cherry Creek steakhouse boasts Elway's larger-than-life name over its larger-than-life doors, John isn't flipping your burgers, grilling your steaks, assembling your s'mores or bringing your order to the table. Those tasks fall to the excellent kitchen crew and floor staff overseen by manager extraordinaire Tom Moxcey, who works hard to translate Elway's vision for the masses. And while Elway may sign a few autographs when he stops in for a drink, the real draw here is the food: In a city constantly struggling to slough off its meat-and-potatoes reputation, Elway's has not only returned some value to our classic cowtown image, but it's also made the steakhouse model fun again. Score!
There was a time when the West was a new frontier where anything was possible and everything was for sale. It was a time of risk-taking and big gambles, of catastrophe and payoff. And though venture capitalists have taken the place of cowboys, and captains of industry now live where cattle barons once kept their herds, that Wild West spirit is still alive at Vesta Dipping Grill, where chef Matt Selby keeps showing that any damn fool idea can work, and that sometimes, any damn fool idea will. The "dipping grill" concept (prepared meats and seafoods, served with a choice of thirty or more sauces) was both innovative and brilliant when he and Josh Wolkon launched Vesta a decade ago, and both descriptions still apply. The concept (often copied, almost never well) has been kept fresh by constant tinkering with both menu and preparation, and rewarded by a posse of wildly loyal fans.
Over the past seventy-odd years, few modern influences have slipped into Bonnie Brae Tavern to mess up the place. Since they opened the onetime roadhouse right across the street from the headquarters of the Denver Temperance League in 1934, members of the Dire family may have slapped on a few coats of paint and changed some menu items, but otherwise they've left well enough alone. And so today the restaurant is like a culinary time capsule under the submarine glow of lights that have been shining down on the same tables and turquoise vinyl booths, the same beer signs and aging regulars, for generations. The food is American Classic -- pot roasts and T-bones, mac-and-cheese and burgers and fries -- but with a twist: Bonnie Brae was one of the first spots in town to offer pizza, back when the dish was still an exotic novelty rather than a trite American mainstay. Don't mess with success.
"New American" has come to mean many things. The words are applied to cuisines as varied as the obsessive food geekery of Thomas Keller at the French Laundry, the chem-lab weirdness of molecular gastronomy, and the burgers-and-beer rosters of a thousand neighborhood taverns daring enough to use leaf lettuce rather than iceberg. But what New American really means is a menu written by a chef informed by all of this but not constrained by it; a chef who understands the influences of French and Asian and Mexican and Italian immigrant flavors on American cookery, but is not limited by canonical recitation. New American means America as it is today, not yesterday, not tomorrow. And in Denver, the best definition of New American is offered by Tyler Wiard at Mel's. His ever-changing menu is a season-by-season accounting of what America tastes like and America's tastes.

The aim is to boost interest in the augmented-reality device amid the media circus surrounding the Super Bowl.
Microsoft thinks it might be fun to watch football on the HoloLens.
As part of a panel during the media circus ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl between the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers, Microsoft on Tuesday showed off a video with more ideas for its still-in-development augmented reality headset.
In the video, fans wearing Microsoft's headset watch the Seahawks play the rival 49ers on video windows snapped to a living-room wall.
Headset wearers interact with images of player stats, play recaps, alerts about their fantasy football team, and three-dimensional replays projected onto a table in front of them.
At one point, an image of Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch bursts through a real-world wall to stand next to a replay.

Microsoft stresses that the video is conceptual. The company doesn't have HoloLens-related NFL apps in the works.
The aim, as with many of the promotional materials related to HoloLens, is to boost interest in the device among developers and potential customers. Headsets are to make their way to select developers by the end of March, Microsoft says, at a cost of $3,000 a piece. A retail release date and price haven't been announced.
In contrast to the fully immersive virtual-reality headsets hitting the market this year, HoloLens is designed to place images into the environment around the wearer.
Such augmented-reality devices don't completely remove wearers from their environment, which analysts say might make them a better fit for communal activities such as watching National Football League games, or the business applications Microsoft sees for HoloLens.

Moscow (Voice of Russia) Dec 18, 2013
Russia will not allow any nation to dominate it in military terms, the Russian president said. Some nations are developing new kinds of weapons, which may tip the global strategic balance, but Russia knows how to counter them.
"Let no one have illusions that he can achieve military superiority over Russia. We will never allow it," Vladimir Putin said in a speech to the Federal Assembly, the joint session of the two chambers of the Russian parliament.
Of particular concern for Russia are the elements of the US-built national anti-ballistic missile system defense (AMD), which it plans to deploy in Europe. The project was for years justified by the perceived threat from countries like Iran. The controversy over Iran's nuclear program may soon be settled, but the AMD goes on as planned, Putin pointed out.
"We realize clearly that the AMD system is only called defensive, while in fact it is a significant part of the strategic offensive potential," he stressed.
Moscow's objections to European AMD and Washington's failure to guarantee that it would not be targeted against Russia, have long mired bilateral relations.
But apart from the military aspect, the future system also serves America's desire to stop Europe drifting away and bond it closer, Aleksey Pushkov, the chair of the Foreign Affairs committee in the Russian parliament, told RT.
"The NATO bond is becoming weaker and weaker. Very few European countries are fulfilling their financial obligations towards NATO," he said, citing complaints by the alliance chief, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, during the latest Munich security conference.
"The United States desperately needs Europe as its ally. And AMD is probably designed to supply such a bond," Pushkov added. "But this cannot be explained this way. It looks like militarization - which it is. So you have to invent and say it's about North Korea or Iran."
Putin also added that Moscow monitors the development of new kinds of weapons by other nations, including small-yield tactical nuclear weapons, conventional precision strategic missiles and hypersonic precision weapons.
The latter may give technological means for a so-called "decapitating strike" a massive surprise attack on a nation's key infrastructure, including strategic missile silos, communication hubs or government buildings, which in theory would do enough damage to avoid a massive retaliation nuclear strike.
"If all those plans are realized, it may cause a very negative effect on regional and global stability. Other nation's build-up of conventional precision strategic systems combined with the increase of the AMD capabilities may nullify all previous agreements on the limitation and reduction of strategic nuclear weapons and tip the strategic balance of power,"Putin said.
He was apparently alluding to the New START, the 2010 nuclear reduction treaty between Russia and the US, which was praised as one of major foreign policy victories during Barack Obama's first term.
The treaty was signed amid conflict over the European part of the AMD system. Instead of settling the issue, Moscow and Washington agreed to go with the deal and discuss the antimissile shield later. So far no compromise has been found.
"We realize all this and know what we need to do," Putin warned.
The Russian military is putting a lot of resources into developing new nuclear strategic missiles as well as its launch systems, including nuclear-powered submarines and strategic bombers. It is also laying out plans to create an integrated space-based system for global real-time reconnaissance and targeting, which would improve Russia's ability to use its nuclear arsenal, the Russian president said.
"Russia will respond to all the challenges, both political and technological. We have all the necessary potential," was his assurance.
Putin's comments were mirrored by similar statements from Deputy-PM Dmitry Rogozin, who oversees the Russian military and defense industry. He too warned that Russia has the mean to defend itself from advanced and future weapons.
"Any aggressor has to realize that whatever he does in terms anti-ballistic missile defense or the attempts to reach hypersonic speeds to deliver precision weapons, to neutralize Russia' nuclear potential, it would be nothing more than an illusion, and will stay that way. We are not going to sit idle," he told journalists.
He added that unlike Soviet Union, Russia would not allow to be dragged into costly arms race and will maintain military parity through asymmetrical means.
The military modernization program that the Russian government is currently implementing has allocated $700 billion to be spent by 2020.
