The Future of Privacy – How SAP Companies are Maturing their Privacy Programs
As privacy concerns continue to mount and expand, the world is evolving its view on how to address data privacy in the future. Organizations have two major shifts:
1) Moving their focus from short-term regulation requirements to long-term privacy requirements
2) Realigning their view on tactically focusing on short-term single considerations and transitioning
to a long-term comprehensive platform architecture
In this session, we will explain the challenges with evolving long-term needs, technology evolution, key considerations in developing your privacy and protection roadmap, and how AI & ML technologies such as Data Mapping and Protection by BigID are integral to an organization's success.
Key Takeaways:
-Discuss the challenges with data privacy, security and governance
-Develop a privacy and protection roadmap that supports future advancements and regulations such as CCPA and GDPR
-Learn how SAP's end-to-end approach leverages innovation and next-generation technologies to discover, secure, and govern data across the organization

Automating Safe Data Analytics for Financial Services
Jun 11 2020
3:00 pm
60 mins
Speakers from BigID, Privitar and Amazon Web Services
The advent of the data privacy era compounds the compliance and regulatory challenges that have held back many financial services institutions from executing data-driven strategies for growth and innovation. There is growing competitive pressure to better understand and respond to customer opportunities based on insights from data that enterprises process themselves, as well as from external data sources. However, global privacy compliance regulations, decentralized privacy governance and the risk inherent in sensitive data have resulted in cumbersome data management practices blocking the ability to use certain data in analytics workloads.
Automating privacy risk minimization strategies can enable financial institutions to realize the benefits of accelerating analytics usage and keeping costs in check through services from cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Join us for an in-depth look at how BigID and Privitar come together in AWS to:
– Streamline data discovery to identify all data that needs to be protected
– Apply a wide range of data privacy protections to that data to minimize risk
– Provide analytics applications with rich and safe data in the cloud to unlock value
With these capabilities, global financial organizations are ultimately empowered to accelerate their time to data in a safe and compliant manner.

Threading the Needle: Building an End to End Approach to Data Rights Fulfillment
Jun 2 2020
56 mins
Tomer Elias, Director, Product Management, BigID. Heather Federman, VP of Privacy and Policy, BigID
Managing and fulfilling the new class of data rights afforded by landmark regulations like the EU's GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act have long been identified as key operational challenges for privacy. However, as many organizations look to transition from manual efforts for compliance, they have encountered increasing levels of complexity for how these rights are addressed in practice. These include the underlying technical challenge of responding to requests with accurate and comprehensive data accounting, to maintaining multiple types of reports based on regulation and business policies, as well as managing the intake of requests and response workflows for a positive user experience.
Join BigID's VP of Privacy & Policy, Heather Federman and Director of Product Management, Tomer Elias for a dive deep into practical steps on streamlining and scaling the elements in the data request lifecycle to align with compliance and business objectives through an automated and flexible approach.
After attending this web conference you will:
-Understand the organizational impact of data subject's rights fulfillment requirements and how data rights compliance can be aligned with business outcomes, like customer trust.
-Gain awareness of potential solutions to roadblocks that can stand in the way of operationalizing DSAR management and streamline processes.
-See how constructing and integrating an end to end approach to data rights can better enable privacy practitioners to respond to the current and future regulatory landscape.
-Learn how to align advanced data rights request management with broader enterprise and data governance objectives for privacy protection.

One Data Map vs. Multitude of Data Definitions
May 27 2020
61 mins
Heather Federman, BigID. Maureen Dry-Wasson, Allegis. Tara Cho, Womble Bond Dickinson
Various legal regimes have differing definitions of what type of information is covered under the law. GDPR & Washington Privacy Act cover "personal data," CCPA covers "Personal Information, the FTC covers "Personally Identifiable Information," and then there are the various state data breach notification laws that delineate what type of information a company must notify a consumer about in the event of a breach. This presents a complicated landscape when it comes to operationalizing privacy; so how does an entity choose a simple, sound and effective approach? This session will cover some of those key data definitions and best practices that companies can leverage to keep track of their data holdings and associated compliance requirements.

Privacy in Perspective - Lessons Learned and Best Practices Two Years into GDPR
May 21 2020
64 mins
Nimrod Vax, CPO at BigID, featuring Scott Margolis, Managing Director of Advisory Risk, EY
Since the introduction of GDPR two years ago and CCPA six months ago, data privacy has taken the spotlight as organizations try to tackle the practical repercussions for sustainable compliance and how to scale and automate operations to address the requirements across a large number of disparate data sources.
With the risk of both compliance penalties and consumer dissatisfaction if they're unable to effectively and timely fulfill access and deletion requests, organizations need a foundation in place to accurately and continuously discover, classify, and map personal and sensitive information.
Join us for an in-depth look at lessons learned so far from GDPR and CCPA, where we'll explore:
– Legislation and enforcement trends two years after GDPR came into effect
– What are the best practices to prepare for CCPA, and key considerations?
– How did organizations prioritize compliance use cases and define system scope?
– How to minimize compliance violations and business risk with end-to-end data workflows
– Subject access rights in practice
– Requirements for data access rights and data deletion requests under CCPA
– What is the path toward full automation for data subject requests?
– How can organizations incorporate Opt out Management and Governance?
– How to extend privacy compliance investments to achieve data governance objectives?

Mission: Operationalization! Data privacy's role in scaling data governance
Apr 23 2020
63 mins
Paige Bartley, Senior Analyst for Data, AI and Analytics, 451 Research; Peggy Tsai, VP of Data Solutions, BigID
Increasingly, enterprise practitioners are viewing data governance as an enabler of business value rather than a cost center within their organizations. But in practice, practical challenges still face organizations as they try to simultaneously meet reactive needs – such as compliance – as well as more proactive ones, such as analytics initiatives. What's standing in the way of operationalization and success? For many, it's the erroneous view that data privacy is at odds with data insight.
However, savvy organizations are realizing that data privacy requirements can be a springboard for more systematic and robust data management practices: practices that benefit stakeholders across the entire organization.
This webinar will look at the alignment of business objectives, and the use of privacy requirements as a lever, not a roadblock.
In this webinar, Paige Bartley, Senior Analyst for Data, AI and Analytics, at 451 Research and Peggy Tsai, VP of Data Solutions at BigID will discuss how you can:
Understand the role that data privacy requirements can play in accelerating enterprise-wide
data governance efforts
Learn to identify opportunities to align business objectives for "reactive" functions such as
compliance and "proactive" initiatives such as analytics
Develop strategies for engaging key enterprise decision-makers and stakeholders, so that data
privacy can be a systemic, operationalized effort
Pinpoint downstream benefits to enterprise-wide data privacy and protection efforts, so that
non-compliance business units can maximize performance

Identify, Classify, and Protect Corporate Crown Jewels with Discovery-in-Depth
Apr 21 2020
59 mins
Roger Hale, CSO, BigID; Brandon Dunlap, Moderator.
With recent data protection regulations and an increase in breaches, companies need to be able to not only find the Crown Jewels in their data, but also secure it. Traditional data discovery tools, however, lack the data source coverage to give organizations a way to identify and contextualize the sensitive Crown Jewels across any data store, any pipeline – in a data center or in the cloud. Join BigID and (ISC)2 on April 21, 2020 at 1:00PM GMT as we discuss how deeper data intelligence can help identify Crown Jewels and reduce liability risk across data sources. We'll look at how to leverage next-generation classification to better enforce policy, how to reduce risk on your most valuable data, and how to implement advanced ML techniques to get more insight into your data.

Why Privacy Protection Goes Beyond Compliance
Mar 5 2020
64 mins
Heather Federman, VP of Privacy and Policy at BigID; David Ray, Director, Cybersecurity and Privacy at PwC
While the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) presents a number of operationalization challenges, especially for consumer data rights fulfillment, the regulation's impact will prove more far reaching. In order to build sustainable privacy programs that can adapt and evolve in response to regulatory changes, organizations should move beyond a focus on reporting workflows and request portals. After all, privacy compliance and ethics imperatives extend beyond policies and processes to critical functional areas like data analytics, data governance and security. A data-driven approach that incorporates business context serves as the foundation for enterprise-wide and cross-functional accounting of how personal data is collected and used.
At stake is not just regulatory risk. Superficial privacy protection that is not tied to data presents risks for consumer trust in the corporate brand, and long term risk to organizations adopting data-driven strategies.
In this webinar, attendees will learn how to:
– Leverage compliance processes to extend privacy protection into data management
– Integrate data inventories and data governance policies to optimize data usage
– Maintain automated approaches to managing privacy risk
– Extend leverage insights to determine outcomes and actions for data management and protection
– Accelerate data breach notification processes

Don't laugh. The idea is being floated around in San Francisco.
Chris Daly plans to introduce a series of new laws that's intended to help renters during these tough economic times — a proposal that is likely to anger landlords.
The proposals include the suspension of any rent increases that would cause a tenant's rent to exceed one-third of their income; expansion of the rights of tenants who want to add roommates to help pay their rent; and limiting the amount of "banked" rent increases — where annual rent increases allowed under city laws are saved up and then imposed at one time — to 8 percent.
Ted Gullicksen, head of the San Francisco Tenants Union, said the package will help the large number of renters that are being laid off or having their pay cut.
"Almost half the people in America are renters, and two-thirds of San Franciscans. In all the talk about the economy, nobody is paying attention to the plight of renters," he said. "People who are being evicted for nonpayment of rent are ending up homeless."
We're still waiting to hear the reaction from some of the associations that represent landlords in San Francisco. But the mayor's office, cited by Gullicksen as one of the biggest hurdles, seemed open to the idea.
"Renters deserve relief too, and these are interesting ideas that are worth looking at," spokesman Nathan Ballard said.

Sayyed Nasrallah Receives Congratulation's Letter from Jordanians on "Ayyoub"
Hezbollah's Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah has received a letter of congratulations and solidarity from the old Jordanian struggler, Doctor Yaacoub Zayadin, after the successful Ayyoub operation in which the Lebanese Resistance was able to launch a drone in the skies of the Occupied Palestine, which is to be considered a specific step in structuring the defensive balance with the Zionist enemy.
The letter texts the following:
Dear Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's Secretary General,
We send you our salutations and respect.
As we celebrate this great historic event that shocked the entire Zionist entity, we, the signatories on this text, send you the most honest and sincere congratulations for this impressive success of the "Ayyoub Drone" operation conducted by the intrepid Lebanese Resistance, at a time some Arabs and Muslims are busy with creating and fueling sectarian, confessional, and ethnic conflicts to keep the entire Ummah occupied with it, as well as igniting colonial wars by proxy, aiming at ejecting it from history.
As we have known, you have conducted this operation unlike winds. You have been in the center of the storm sweeping in the region, in a courageous challenge with the postulates on which our generations have been brought up, in which they state that imperial universally supported Zionist enemy's power is undefeatable, and the usurped waters and skies are impermeable, and its victory and our defeat represent a predetermined destiny. This operation leads to revitalizing our Ummah and restoring the hope buried under its ashes.
The frank message by Ayyoub to Arabs and Muslims was as follows: "This is your cause, that is your enemy, and here is your compass. Do not be misled. Victory and glory are to the honest promising resistance."
The letter was signed by: Dr. Zayadin's friends, a group of the Jordanian leftist leaders such as Dr. Hisham Ghassib, Issam El-Tall, Ahmad Jaradat, Saoud Qobeilat, Dr. Mohammad Al-Kafaween, Dr. Ahmad Fakher, Dr. Mazen Hanna, George Haddadin, Dergham Halssa, and around 400 activists.

GrayStreet buys SAISD properties in Government Hill
Local developer GrayStreet Partners has purchased a cluster of properties in Government Hill from the San Antonio Independent School District, setting the stage for a massive new development it wants to build there.
With the purchase, GrayStreet owns roughly 23 acres in Government Hill, across Broadway from The Pearl, according to the release. The properties bought from SAISD roughly stretch along the west side of Austin Street between Casa Blanca Street to the south and Grayson Street to the north. The purchase price was undisclosed.
GrayStreet plans to build a mixed-use development with office buildings, apartments, retail, restaurants and entertainment offerings there. The firm's managing partner, Kevin Covey, has said it could include about 100,000 square feet of retail and up to 300,000 square feet of office space.
"We are privileged and lucky to have been able to assemble such a unique opportunity to impact San Antonio," Covey said in the release. We are committed to creating a project that invests more than money in the community and will be transformative for all of San Antonio."

Advice on neck profiles, next purchase…
Well I've totally fallen in love with Musicman.
After stumbling across a beaten up old Axis Sport at a bargain price a couple of years ago all the Fenders and Gibson's are gone and I now have just an ASS and a Luke.
Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of trying many before I buy in England, there aren't many dealers here. So most of my purchases are done on gut instinct!
Both my Super Sport and Luke are awesome, they feel different to each other as most will know but still perfect for me in their own respective ways. I have quite small hands and they really suit me.
Looking at maybe Stingray or a Silhouette model next. I play mostly hard rock/metal but love the look of them. I know the Stingray is a bit more vintage based but a couple of high output humbuckers would sort out any issues there if the stock ones didn't cut it.
So just wondering if anyone can advise me on how these necks feel in comparison to what I already own?
Thanks in advance.

This critter doesn't look a lot like spaghetti, I'll grant you. But it's called a spaghetti squash – because once it's baked in the oven, I am supposedly pulling a fork through it – and it'll turn up as long, noodle-like thingies (if I am sufficiently touched by His Noodly Appendage, of course…)
- Leonard Cohen, Slow
- Sinne Eeg, Waiting for Dawn
Spaghetti squashes (that does look odd in plural – squashi? 😉 ) are hard! Cutting one in half requires a long, sharp knife, a decent amount of brute force and a lot of being careful with that
axe knife, Eugene!
Once it's cut in halves, take out the seeds and the stringy gunk that holds them, brush some oil over all of it and bake for a good half hour at 200°C until you can quite easily poke a fork down through the flesh all the way to the peel.
- Bonnie Tyler, It's A Heartache
- Styx, Clair de Lune / Ballerina
Add grated cheese, butter if you will, parsley and finely chopped garlic and, with a fork, pull the flesh longitudinally so that you scoop it out and spaghettitize it at the same time.
It's quite easy – at least if your ambition does not run to very long strands – except for trying to hold on to a 180-200°C warm half large squash… So I ended up with something that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike spaghetti…
As for the chicken (breast), I cut it into smaller pieces and marinated it for an hour-ish in soy sauce, oil, garlic and ginger and then stir-fried it along with celery, spring onion and sugar snaps.
- Fleetwood Mac, You Make Loving Fun
- Katie Melua, On The Road Again
Serve quickly as soon as both things are done.
And to follow, a classic and also seasonal dessert: Old-fahioned "apple cake" (it doesn't even remotely have anything to do with cake, but that's what it's called).
Peel apples – we have Belle de Boskoop, which is a superior apple for cooking and desserts. De-core 'em and cut them into cubes. Gently boil them with just a tad of water and, if you feel like it, maybe half a pod of vanilla (remember to pluck it out afterwards).
- Bryan Ferry & Roxy Music, Jealous Guy
- Supertramp, Goodbye Stranger
When the apples are mushy but not completely an even mush yet, take them off the heat and stir in an appropriate amount of cane (or regular) sugar. Leave to cool. If you get it started late, as I did, it comes in handy that it's -3°C outside…
On a small pan, heat a bit of butter until it's stopped foaming, then add "rasp" (Danish for fine wheat breadcrumbs – we buy it ready-made), mixed with 1/3 sugar by weight. Leave on middle heat, while stirring, until it gets light brown and caramelized. Cool off, maybe stir a little once in a while – as it sometimes can self-attach to a rather large and very dry cookie and you want it as a granulate.
- REO Speedwagon, Keep On Loving You
- Al Jarreau/David Sanborn/Bob James, Since I Fell For You
In a presentable bowl of the right size, layer apple and breadcrumbs – start with apple, end with breadcrumbs (which is in fine layers between thicker layers of apple). On top goes whipped cream and the whole thing is decorated with dollops of apple or (any red berry) jelly.
Could well be served with a ruby port – or even a calvados, of course. Not that we did either today.
Happy cooking!

Be Prepared- Obtain all of your documentation ready and accessible to steer clear of waiting times or perhaps issues with your application . If you are not sure what's necessary , inquire your mortgage broker and never ever apply for a loan if perhaps you're poorly prepared .
Stay Put- Once you learn that you're going to apply for a loan over the next several , six or even one year usually do not replace jobs , cut your work hours , go casual or temporary , swap organizations , or suddenly get started with a brand new company . Lenders like stability and a continual track record but will ask for record of ongoing employment in addition to company outcomes of up to 2 yrs , in cases where self employed .
Truthfulness is the most effective Policy– You should not , under each and every scenario , be less than truthful , fib , forget about information or even avoid to include things like appropriate financial information on the application .

Don't Verify Your Credit Score– Banks carry out their unique internal credit scoring on each and every loan prospect and it's fairly well-known fact but every credit enquiry you are making registers as a harmful mark against your credit rating . As a result steer clear of generating credit enquiries because it is not seen favourably .

Your Past history Counts– Banks notice past behavior as a good predictor for the foreseeable future and with centralised credit analysis everything makes a difference .

Banks will certainly check up to a year of your billing statements together with your credit ranking to determine this .
Snow White Spending– Be mindful of your own expenditure practices and you can keep them thoroughly clean for at least for six months just before making an application . Lenders do not like seeing problematic spending on credit or debit cards such as regular withdrawals of funds at the Casino , which will point out a betting concern , or continual big orders from liquor sellers , which can display a drinking problem . Also , don't suddenly open new credit card accounts or perhaps spend erratically .
Different Strokes for Different Folks- Be aware that very few lenders are the same exact . In fact , certain lenders specialise in several areas of lending . This implies even though you have your personal business enterprise , are self-employed or perhaps experienced a dilemma with credit prior to now which you won't be approved .

The Cyberspace Deck
Choosing your Deck is the most important step besides your own knowledge in every hacking attempt.
To make comparison easier, all decks share a common template form.
Click to open
sample deck
in separate window.
First there is the name of the deck.
Next you see the market price of a deck. A deck can be purchased at various shops for this amount of money. No negotiating about the price, sorry.
Then there is most important stat of a deck: The Main Processor.
This is the stat that describes the raw CPU power a deck can provide at maximum efficiency. Of course hardware can only be as effective as the user. So this value is directly linked to the Power Level of its user. A computer cannot be more efficient then the person that works with it. And similar a hacker cannot outdo the physical limitations of his deck. Both have to work in a symbiosis.
Under normal circumstances a hacker can do as many hacks as the Main Processor Level of the deck or the Powerlevel of the user - whatever is lower.
So a deck with a CPU of 1 can support one hack only.
The next line(s) describe the coprocessor efficiency of a deck. While the Main Processor is very important it is not the only valuable stat. The Main CPU got so many different tasks it is impossible to compile all procedures in real time as well. This is where the Co-Processors kick in. Just like the main CPU, the Co-Procs form a symbiosis with a hacker's skills. When a hacker cannot use the full power of one it will be limited by his weakness. But again a hacker cannot outperform deck limitations. Even a cybergod has to wait the cycles a compile needs on a given Coprocessor.
So the true efficiency is again the minimum of the deck's and the hacker's powers. This calculated power easens the hacking of a specific system if it has the same basic OS as the coprocessor in use. A Basic Processor gives a bonus of 10, an Advanced of 20 and the Master level a bonus of 30 to all hacking attempts on that systems.
The Instruction Cache is your main memory. Of course your deck got an insane big amount of base memory, but it is too slow for the real thing when speed is of essence. The only part that counts here is the IC. This valuable memory determines (together with your CPU output) how many systems you can pass in attempting a hack.
Each system needs 10 memory slots to store the relavant information about it. So an instruction cache of 30 offers the ability to store 3 system addresses so one can at max do runs 3 hops away.
Next stat... I/O Channels.
All is great and fine when you prepare the procs on your deck, compile them and are ready to release them. Just one problem - the procs have to be uploaded
into the target system. Here the I/O Channels come into effect. Each channel enables one hacking attempt per turn. You can however re-use an I/O channel if the first hacking attempt failed. So with an I/O of 1 you can hack the same system 4 times (if you got a PL of 4), but you cannot hack two different systems.
The remaining stats of a deck are not of importance for hacking. They are only needed in extreme situations. See the section
Cyberfights - Decks
for details.
Finally there is a description of the deck. Where it comes from. It's history. Manufacturer. Stuff like that. Also special properties of hardware will be noted here.

SUICIDE SILENCE Guitarist Knew Some Fans Wouldn't Like Controversial Self-Titled Album
"Mike James Rock Show" conducted an interview with guitarist Mark Heylmun of California deathcore masters SUICIDE SILENCE at this year's Download festival, which was held June 9-11 at Donington Park in Leicestershire, England. You can watch the full chat below. A few excerpts follow (transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET).
On SUICIDE SILENCE's controversial new self-titled album, which saw the band take a noticeable change in direction from their traditional deathcore sound:
Mark: "It's easy when there was a pre-destined [idea of how the album will sound], like, we know people will talk shit. We know people might not like this. We know all of it. We already knew, so we kind of prepped ourselves for it. We needed to, at this point in our lives, in our careers, as people, as humans, as kids who started off playing heavy music, we needed to try some shit. We needed to do something different or what the fuck else are we doing? It's easier to keep churning out shit that people expect you to put out. That's the way I feel with our fans; no offense to them. I love them and understand it. I was a fan of so much as a young kid and I didn't want shit to change and when it did, it pissed me off. At the same time, you need to fucking grow. You need to or what the fuck are you doing? Why are you in a band?"
On the band's need to progress:
Mark: "We have to. We knew it. We wanted to go further when Eddie [Hermida, vocals] joined the band. In all reality, we wanted to go fucking super-deep if Mitch [Lucker, vocals] wouldn't have passed [in 2012]. There was so many things we had said and footsteps we had pre-thrown out there that we were going to step into and follow. We had plans for every record until our tenth record. Like, we really talked about that shit. Losing Mitch and all that, it's, like, we kind of had to take a new road, a new way to go about it. Doing [2014's] 'You Can't Stop Me', we felt, 'Well, we wrote a 'maintenance record.' We wrote a record that's not exactly what we would have done if we weren't in that situation.' We wrote a record that makes people stoked that SUICIDE SILENCE is still a band; let's make some heavy shit. Post that record, it didn't satisfy us as much as we would have liked it to. So, let's go do some fucking weird shit. Let's jam together, let's fucking see what comes out naturally and where we are going as individuals, as a band, like, where are we going?"
On whether SUICIDE SILENCE will continue with their current direction on their next album:
Mark: "We're really thinking about it. We're always thinking about it. I think that one, we're still going to go into it with the 'mystery,' because I think the mystery is a lot of what of the goodness of the music fucking sick, is like you don't know what's going to come out and when it does, you're, like, 'There it is.' On the other end, we went into this last record, full mystery, like, 'We don't know what's going to happen.' Now we have a bag of tricks that we learned from while writing this record and we're going to utilize what we did with this last one and just meld everything that we've done in the past and get gnarly. I know that we probably are going to end up having some super-, super-heavy shit, but at the same time, we are having a good time with the fucking melodrama and writing really chill songs."
On whether he thinks SUICIDE SILENCE's fanbase will allow the band to progress:
Mark: "It's all a journey, dude. We could have changed our name and wrote a record and tried to fucking… I don't know. I think the general consensus is that there's a view on bands that it's,, like, 'Oh, every band is trying to become fucking famous and become huge and get on the radio and do all of this stuff.' When a band like SUICIDE SILENCE starts clean singing, you don't get an open ear as much. You just get, 'Oh, what the fuck are these guys trying to do?' They don't listen to it and think about like, maybe this is 'real.' Maybe this isn't an attempt at being something they're not."
On trying to maintain the band's relevance in the face of fan backlash:
Mark: "What better time to make a fucking crazy shift then when we're 15 years deep as a band? We're going to have another 15 years ahead of us and it's, like, I forgot who said it, but it was like 'McDonald's comes out with a new burger, they don't take the Big Mac off the menu.' We have all our old shit, it's all there. It's cool if you want to fucking hate us because we did something you don't approve of, but then who the fuck is the idiot at that point?"
"Suicide Silence" was released on February 24 via Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The CD was produced by Ross Robinson, who has previously worked with KORN, SLIPKNOT, LIMP BIZKIT and SEPULTURA, among others, and was mixed by Joe Barresi (KYUSS, MELVINS, TOOL, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE).
The controversy over the album's new sound — featuring a more melodic and clean singing style, in the vein of acts like DEFTONES and KORN — even caused one disgruntled fan to launch a petition to stop the record coming out.

"I'm sorry I'm late, it's that I just woke up!" laughs Sofia Vergara, at eleven-thirty on a Sunday morning in Los Angeles. "We worked until very late last night," says the 39-year-old in the rolling Colombian accent we've come to love from her character, Gloria, on "Modern Family."
About the late thing? We'll forgive her, because this is one busy woman. Not only was she working on a shoot for CoverGirl (she is their new spokesperson), but she also just launched her Sofia Vergara for Kmart fashion line for women of all sizes. And she's in not one but two new movies ("Happy Feet Two" and "New Year's Eve"), while filming her Emmy-winning ABC show. Today, the seriously funny actress — who is mom to her own "Manny," 20-year-old son, Manolo — talks about everything from dreading workouts to the plastic surgery she's so glad she decided not to get.
Q: The tagline of your fashion line is "Work what you got." How can we work what we've got?A: Everybody has something. Somebody has a good pair of legs, even though her midsection is a little chunky. So then you can wear tights with miniskirts or you wear tight leggings. And if you have nice cleavage, wear things that enhance that.
Q: Was there a time you didn't love how you looked?A: Oh, of course! Not everybody's confident their whole life. For a long time, I thought that my boobs were too big and I was, like, 14 years old, and I already had these huge boobs. I was very skinny also. And now that I'm almost 40 — we always have our insecurities as women. We're never happy!
Q: Can you remember the day you started realizing, "Wait a minute, I think I've got it going on!"A: In Latin America we do learn to be more comfortable with our bodies. Women are not shy to be in a bathing suit, in a G-string. But I also did a TV commercial for Pepsi when I was 17 on the beach in a bathing suit. And after that, everybody was like, "Oh my god, that body." And you know, you start to feel a little bit more confident if you have people thinking that you're so fabulous! (Laughs)
Q: I guess it helps to have a cheerleading squad.A: Of course, of course! When I moved to America, I was more voluptuous, and I felt a little different. And one time, years ago, I remember my publicist (at the time) told me, "I think you should just reduce your boobs because nobody's going to take you seriously here." My mother almost had a heart attack. She was like, "God is going to punish you! You can't cut your boobs!" I don't regret not doing it, because now it's become a big part of Gloria.
Q: What made you realize, "I'm going to keep my body the way it is"?A: My mother screaming at me that God was gonna punish me — what else do you want! (Laughing)
Q: Oh, right, that would do it! Are you anti–plastic surgery in general?A: I'm not against it at all. But I think that you should go into it more thinking that you want to look beautiful than trying to look young. Because I don't really think that plastic surgery can make you look young. It can make you look prettier, but if you go with the mentality of being young, I think that's where accidents can happen.
Q: You're a natural blonde, right?A: Yeah, about five years ago I was auditioning with this body and the attitude of a Latin woman, and it didn't match the stereotype of the Latin women in Hollywood. I made it dark for a screen test and everybody really liked it. They didn't give me the movie, but I kept the hair color!
Q: Do you ever feel like people stereotype you?A: Oh yeah, of course. But I don't mind it. I mean, it is the reality. I am a Latin woman: I'm voluptuous, I'm loud, I'm exactly what a Latin woman is (laughs). I mean, what am I going to go against it? No. I don't think there's anything bad in being a Latin woman. What is it? That we are loud, that we are passionate, that we are voluptuous? I prefer to be called that than, "You're boring; you have a flat ass!" (Laughs)
Q: Do you have any stay-gorgeous tricks that aren't from a bottle?A: My mother always told me to make the last water in your shower really cold. I've always done it.
Q: How are you most healthy? And not so healthy?A: I don't smoke, I've never done drugs. I think the most unhealthy thing is that I'm obsessed with dessert. And it's verrry hard for me not to eat it at least once a day.
Q: What are your favorites?A: All of 'em. I mean, I cannot … it's like you saying, "Which one of your kids is your favorite?" I can't do that! Oh … God … (her voice is wavering like it's Sophie's Choice) it's so difficult. Tiramisu maybe? Or just a plain vanilla cake that's homemade and warm and just out of the oven? I love that.
Q: You beat thyroid cancer in 2000. How does going through a health scare at such a young age change you?A: It changes your priorities. It's a good thing when it comes out with a happy ending because it does make you appreciate things more. But, you know, you live your life as healthy as you can. I was twentysomething and I had never smoked, I hadn't eaten red meat in years, so why did I have a cancer? No one knows.
Q: What's your biggest health regret?A: You know what I wish? My face is so much better, because I've been putting sunblock since I was young on my face. Nobody ever told me that I needed to put it in my décolletage! And so it is more sun-damaged than my face. It wouldn't have been difficult to put a little bit there.
Q: Is it true you're not a fan of gyms?A: Just working out! (Laughs) It's paaaaaainful. I hired Gunnar Peterson, which is really fun. Because I mean, if I go alone, I'll sabotage myself. I'll do half of the workout. So I need somebody to force me to do it.
Q: Do you complain the whole time or do you just shut up and do it?A: Ohhh, the whooooole time! I cry, I get on the floor, I'm like, "I'm gonna throw up, enough!" I mean, he doesn't care.
Q: How do you motivate yourself to work out if you're too tired?A: Oh my God, I look at myself in the mirror. And I'm like, I'm almost 40 years old and I need to go!
Q: So seeing your face in the mirror is just inspiration enough?A: No, I'm more looking at my ass! (Laughs) Or my legs, not my face!
Q: What is your favorite way to de-stress?A: To be with my son and my boyfriend (Nick Loeb), just doing nothing. And I love lunches with my friends — just talking and gossiping.

Guidelines To Assist An Individual In Selecting The Right Menu Cover
The first impression matters and that is why any person in business, one must have a presentable menu by choosing the right menucovers for your bar or restaurant. Look forward to picking an option that will keep on a attracting people by having the right Menu Covers which can also be a representation of various options available to people. People have a gazillion options of menucovers California that can be beneficial to the restaurant or bar, and that is why one has to research and also get to see what works well for their restaurant for instance.
Ensure The Materials The Best
There is need to investigate and know the right material that works for menucovers because a lot of clients get attracted by a good material and will feel comfortable using it anytime. Menu Covers need special attention because they are the attention grabbers, and is a representation of whether or not one gets enough clients to their business; therefore, do not compromise your chances of selling your items by choosing a cover that is shoddy.
See To It That The Style Is Perfect
People have various options to their disposal like; menu boards, coil menus or any other style, and a person has to look at what they want to present their clients before deciding on the style.
Choose Colors That Are Incredible
Colors evoke emotions, and that is why an individual has to choose those that blend in with your decor, so that when a customer walks in and sees you menu holder, they will be attracted to stay because there is some cohesiveness and agreement of colors in the room which makes them feel calm and welcome on the premises. When one is working professionals, tell them to add your logo on the menu covers because it will also attract clients and makes them see that your premises value professionalism.
Get A Budget
It is good to know how much you estimate on spending through getting the right design of your menucovers and ensuring that you pick the best material; however, sometimes people are advised to put it slightly higher or have a flexible mind, just in case they find a better quality and nice design but, might require you to spend a little more than planned. Replacing your design every time is costly so, have all plan on getting good menucovers that we serve you for some time in assisting saving money.
Ensure They Are Adjustable When One Needs To Change
There is nothing tiring and frustrating to an individual than finding out later that your menu holder has to be replaced anytime one has to make a slight change because it was made in a format that was meant to last for a long time, before changes are made.

Joyce and I began our Christmas vacation on December 17th as we boarded our flight through Japan to San Francisco and then on to Redding and El Dorado to spend time with family. The plan was to go on to San Diego on Christmas night, and to Cincinnati on New Years Day to visit Matt and Mike and their families. Our plans were aborted when I arrived in San Francisco with a "serious" (Doctor's word to describe it) case of edema. We went to urgent care and discovered that I have a "serious blood condition" called eosinophilia which, as the doctor said, "you must take very seriously or it will kill you." So we took it seriously and planted ourselves in El Dorado where we have access to excellent medical and, hopefully not necessary, university hospitals that can handle serious illnesses. I am now awaiting a month of tests that will determine what is causing and what must be done about it. Joyce and I would ask you to pray along with us as we move through this.
Though our plans were changed we were still able to celebrate Christmas with my family in El Dorado. Our daughter Missy and grand-daughter Leila were able to fly from Texas and spend a few days with us. My brother and his family came up from the Bay Area and most of my sister's family was there with us. We enjoyed the usual Owen conversational repartee and had a good afternoon together. The white elephant gift exchange was a lot of fun. My sister Jayne's gift to my brother Doug was unanimously acclaimed as the best white elephant of the night (right). I am sure we will see it again. The picture above, top, is my parents with some of their grand and great grand children.

Incidences of high powered laser beaming on arriving and departing airplanes at night are reportedly increasing and police are working on finding those responsible.
Pilots who fly at night into and out of the Henderson Airport have complained of being beamed by high powered green laser lights.
The incidents happen immediately after take-off, and before pilots fully transition to transitional flight.
Police Commissioner Frank Prendergast told a media conference today he calls on Henderson communities to support police to find the people involved in this practice.
"And I am calling on everyone in the community to do their part in ensuring this doesn't occur. If people in the community know the individuals who are doing this, they could let the police know so we can deal with it."
SIBC News understands the Police are preparing to conduct awareness programs about the incidents to communities at Henderson.

Is Virtual Reality the Technology of the Future?
Virtual reality is a computer generated environment in which humans can interact with the help of various devices. When we hear the term VR, what might run through our minds would be head mounted screens or gloves with sensors which help us interact in a VR environment. It would be hard to believe that VR has been around since the 1960s, taking va Read more

Contrary to popular belief, Flunk Day did eventually happen this year. Many Knox students, though, were still not satisfied. So we asked the editors:
How could Flunk Day be improved?
"Mudpit dodgeball." — Jackson White, Sports Editor
"It shouldn't rain. They should seed the clouds instead."
— Gretchen Walljasper, Copy Editor
"It should be a planned day and not an unknown day. That would improve the academic performance of the school during the spring term."
— John Williams, Editor-in-chief
"David Sedaris should come and tap dance dressed as a penguin."
— Samantha Paul, Copy Editor
"Flunk Day could have been Monday."
— Anna Meier, News Editor
"Flunk Day could be improved by having a second Flunk Day."
— Katy Sutcliffe, Mosaic Editor
"If it rains again, it should rain candy. Also, there are too many scares right now."
— Elizabeth Schult, Copy Editor
"I could not live in the quads during the Flunk day scares."
— Carina Tran, Photo Editor
"Bring the Verve instead of the Verve Pipe."
— Charlie Gorney, News Editor
"Better contingency planning and better communication by the Flunk Day Planners. Also, Abraham Lincoln should have a chorus of presidential back-up dancers."

19 Reasons Why You Miss Getting The Delia*s Catalog
It's one of those forgotten teenage thrills. Rory Gilmore probably shopped at dELiA*s.
1. It regularly featured low-maintenance hairstyles for short-haired girls.
2. There was only one kind of jean: the mid-rise.
3. They sold inflatable furniture for the perfect teenage bedroom.
4. You learned what "rocket pants" were. And you totally wanted them.
5. The models all looked like BFFs.
6. A tomboyish skateboarding outfit would be perfectly balanced with a half-ponytail.
7. You didn't have to decide whether you were a wedge or a platform person.
8. The girls were always striking irreverent poses and making goofy faces.
9. tHiS foNT.
10. All the bottoms had drawstring waistbands.
11. You looked tall in your plat-flops.
12. Flared capris were the perfect pants for summer.
13. This camo maxi dress.
14. The jewelry was cheap and plentiful.
15. Somehow, a crotch-pocket jean skirt made sense.
16. The skirts were modestly knee-length.
17. You were encouraged to rock a cropped halter.
18. The physical act of filling out a form to place an order felt really momentous.

(Source: Penguins.NHL.com) – Pittsburgh Penguins forward Pascal Dupuis will no longer play hockey because of a medical condition related to blood clots, Dupuis and the team announced today. Dupuis, 36, had played 18 games this season while taking blood thinners but experienced several recent medical incidents possibly related to his condition. He had to be removed from several games – most recently on December 1 at San Jose – and each time had to undergo a series of tests.
Well this is just a bummer. Before the season kicked off we had ex-Bruin Rich Peverley announce his retirement due to his heart condition. Now we can add Pascal Dupuis to that list of guys who wisely, and before it was too late, valued long-term health over playing a game. It sounds like Dupuis didn't have much of a choice. And even though I've never been a fan of the Penguins it always sucks to see players go out because of health issues.
Dupuis can leave the game feeling accomplished though. He came out of the QMJHL, and was never drafted by an NHL team. Working his way up through the minors he bounced from the Minnesota Wild, New York Rangers, and Atlanta Thrashers before finally landing with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2008. In 2009 he would win a Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh. From undrafted to 871 NHL games, 409 points, and a ring, Dupuis can leave knowing he was a winner.
Here's to Pascal and his future health. The Penguins should feel honored to have had him on their team.

Mary Xrisoleontissa's Monastery
was built in the early 17th century.
It has high walls and it looks more
like a fort. It was built that way
because the monks were afraid
of the pirates. You can communicate
with the Monastery through a
big door. It's
a big, two storey building with a
garden in the center in which there
is a church and next to it, a three-storey
tower rises above the valley and it was
built around 1600. The church was built
in 1800 in place of the old one which
was burned.
The church has an elaborate
carved icon screen, beautiful murals
and Virgin Mary's icon. The Monastery
was very rich and in its possession
was the biggest part of the island.
the 19th century, most of the fields
of the Monastery expropriated and
the monks left. From the year 1935 the
Monastery became feminine and ten nuns
live there ever since. The Monastery celebrates
on 15th August and the biggest festival
of the island takes place on that

I too love songs by Kailash Kher,very earthy.These budding singers show lots of promise ...this is second time today that someone mentioned MKMM show...i need to watch this show...i must.

Some gems there Sandhya .. can't open youtube here in office .. which is the first one? kesariya Balam?
I agree there's maha drama in this maha muqabla. But, as u say, some gr8 music sometimes. Anwesha is a wonderful singer. This girl will go heights if she continues this way since she is just 15 still :)
I am waitinggg for the next cute post :)
As for songs, I just can't get enuf of Kavita Seth who hs sung Iktara .. its been my current fav for a long time nw :)

Wow! They are lovely songs! I had not heard them before.
Your posts are always so informative!
And am dying to hear about the kittens!

Ramesh: Nallaa irukken, veettil!! Thank you.
Swaram: yes, I know that you cannot watch the videos from your office. 'Aoji' is the song. In Shivkumar Sharma's post I had mentioned 'kesariya' and Aishwarya sang the song. She is a very good singer. Anwesha and Aishwarya participated together in some 'chote ustaad' or some musical show. Both are good.
Haha..maha drama in maha muqabla...you are right. My husband doesn't like this show because of that. I too lose patience sometimes and switch off.
Yes, Kavitha Seth is too good.
- Wednesday, February 10, 2010 at 8:40:00 PM GMT+5:30
- Sandhya said...
Kavita: All the songs of Kailash are slow and melodious.
I am watching this show just for these singers. But you have to tolerate too much drama. The judges hurl abuses at each other which is not good at all, esp. Himesh Reshammiya.
Smitha: This song of Kailash Kher comes in the background often in this serial. It is so soft for the ears.
Rehmaan comes from a very ordinary background but got the BIG break now, thanks to Shreya in this show.
Started feeding milk in ink filler now to the three little kittens! So I am very very busy!

Ya Sandhya .. Chote Ustaad ws really gud. I used to like Jayanth a lot :)

Swaram: So many young children are singing so well nowadays. They must have done lot of riyaaz for coming to this level.
Chote ustaad, saregama li'l champs..so many programmes and so many new budding singers...Abhigyan, Prateeksha, Baby (!) Swarit, Hemant...the list goes on. But Gajendra Singh started this prog. with Sonu Nigam and those series were the best...no talking, just singing. Sonu was 'pire chooing' 100 times to the judges in each episode. I have written about it too in 'saregama' post.

U r rt Sandhya .. there's too much of drama. The old SaReGaMa topped the charts only bcoz of the quality if music. Wish they go bk to those days again :(

I love watching these realty music shows. This show has great singers but Himesh Reshamiya ( did I get the name right?) is rather a pain and seems awfully biased. Or are these acts according to script... for the effect?

Kailesh Kher is my favourite singer.

Radha: Yes, too much drama in MMMK show. Though they might need it to hike the TRP ratings. But will people like Shaan get angry or show it in public that easily? I doubt it, Radha.
Renu: Yes, Renu. Did you hear Rehmaan's songs? He is not yet famous, but will be, very soon.
BK Chowla: Our young new singers sing his songs a lot in reality shows. That is how I got familiar with his voice. Now, I have got some of his songs in my PC, Chowlaji.
Rehmaan's voice is also very soulful. Did you hear it?
- Thursday, February 11, 2010 at 12:26:00 PM GMT+5:30
This girl - Anwesha is a brilliant singer... she can sing low pitched as well as high pitched songs brilliantly! Wonder how they are able to sing classical songs so beautifully! THe only problems with shows like those are - there is a lot of drama which is totally unnecessary! Anyways good that our musical traditions are being carried forward.

Destination Infinity: This girl Anwesha is just 15 years old. The way she sings with Rahul Vaidhya, is brilliant. I have a feeling that he was a bit nervous! She was thoroughly enjoying the song - the song is so tough to singh. 100% concentration and riyaaz is needed to sing such songs.
I too hate the drama in these shows.
