Max Charles Jr., 51, of 9 Taunton Green, is charged with assault with intent to murder, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and witness intimidation for allegedly threatening to kill the victim if he spoke to police.
TAUNTON — A Taunton man who police allege stabbed a homeless man over a $25 drug debt last week is being held without bail after a dangerousness hearing in district court.
Max Charles Jr., 51, of 9 Taunton Green, is charged with assault with intent to murder, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and witness intimidation for allegedly threatening to kill the victim if he spoke to police.
He'll be brought back into Taunton District Court for a status hearing on Feb. 21.
A woman who police said has been living with Charles at his second-floor apartment was also arrested.
Dena Marie Connolly, 29, was charged with possession of a dangerous weapon, a double-edged boot knife, and resisting arrest, the latter for allegedly trying to unlock the door of a police car after she was arrested on two active warrants.
At 6:15 p.m., officers responded to an apartment house at 73 Broadway, where a tenant reported that his friend had been stabbed downtown by an individual with the street name Dread, after the three of them smoked crack cocaine inside the Taunton Green apartment.
Police said local law enforcement is familiar with Charles. They said he's called Dread because of his long dreadlocks.
The victim's friend told police the two of them ran back to the Broadway apartment house where they argued about whether to call police or an ambulance. His friend, who was bleeding from the head and chest, reportedly didn't want to call 911 because he feared retaliation from Charles.
Police detectives located the 45-year-old victim, who refused medical attention despite cuts to his chest and his head between his left temple and ear. By then they said he was willing to identify his attacker.
Police said when they first went to 9 Taunton Green to speak with Charles they noticed drops of blood in the stairwell and second-floor landing in front of the apartment in addition to a strong smell of bleach.
They said that downtown building is well-known for its drug activity. Several months earlier it was the scene of a assault in which a man was thrown down the stairs and severely injured.
A 61-year-old man living in another second-floor apartment in the building was arrested last week for possession to distribute crack cocaine. That same day, cops arrested another tenant on three warrants for drug and larceny charges.
Police said that, before the stabbing victim was located, they noticed the building's exterior door was unlocked, a piece of plywood was covering a broken-out window and the door leading to the common area was unlocked.
After loudly knocking on the apartment door and getting no response, the officers were advised by their patrol supervisor to force their way in to look for the victim.
They kicked in the door, police said, and saw Connolly in the bedroom, where they retrieved a double-edged boot knife from a night stand. They also arrested and handcuffed Charles inside the same room.
Connolly allegedly admitted that the weapon belonged to her.
Police said the smell of bleach was strong. They also said they found bloodied clothing, rags, tissues and a bottle of Clorox bathroom cleanser.
They said Charles denied knowing the victim and claimed he had nothing to do with any stabbing, despite police finding an EBT card on the bathroom dresser bearing the victim's name.
Connolly was charged with resisting arrest after an officer left her in the back of his cruiser handcuffed and went back upstairs to assist his partner with Charles. When Charles was escorted downstairs in handcuffs, a driver shouted that another woman had helped Connolly get out of the car.
Police said they caught up with Connolly a couple of blocks away.
The victim agreed to come to 9 Taunton Green, police said, where he positively identified Charles.
The victim gave a slightly different version to police than his friend. Police said he told them they were standing in front of the building when Charles shouted for him to come upstairs.
As soon as he got to the second floor, Charles, who police said is 6-foot-2 and 225 pounds, allegedly grabbed him while holding a knife, struck him in the head and leaned into him until the knife punctured his chest.
The victim told cops he pleaded for his life after Charles put the knife to his throat and said he would kill him over the $25 debt.
He also told police that Charles said, "I am Jamaican and do not care, and I will (expletive) kill you." The victim also alleged Charles threatened to kill him as soon as he got out of jail if he called police to have him arrested.
Police said a knife sheath recovered from Charles' pants pocket during the booking process matched up with the weapon.
Charles was arrested in October as the result of an undercover drug operation near his building, resulting in charges of heroin distribution and conspiracy.
He was released on Dec. 6 on $500 bail after Judge Stephen Ostrach reduced bail from $1,000 due to prosecutors not being ready to proceed with the case, according to court records.

DailyDirt: Beverage Marketing At Its Highest... Altitudes?
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
- Ardbeg Scottish whisky aged in space for 3 years has been tasted (finally!) by human beings, and it looks like space-aged whisky is somewhat nasty. Lots of fancy adjectives were used to qualitatively describe this whisky that we mentioned 3 years ago, but the aftertaste was "intense and long, with hints of wood, antiseptic lozenges and rubbery smoke" -- and "rubbery smoke" doesn't sound too appealing. [url]
- American whiskeys and bourbons have a history of tricky marketing tactics. Aging these alcoholic beverages or producing them in smaller quantities doesn't necessarily make them any better, and the name on the labels might not actually mean much beyond a "doing business as" moniker. [url]
- The Japanese distillery Suntory will be sending its own whisky to the International Space Station to "observe" the effects of aging its product in space. This probably isn't about the scientific exploration of whisky chemistry as much as it is marketing, but maybe someday, we'll see more ads with Bill Murray shot in space with more intensity. [url]

I've been looking at the Mets position players with this thought: Whose season might be the most important for them to reach contending status. That is, of course, under the assumption the rotation pitches well.
My first thought was David Wright, but I'm inclined to give the benefit of doubt and believe last season was an aberration, that he'll be closer to normal this year. Then I thought Daniel Murphy, as with Carlos Beltran out at the start that the Mets would need an infusion of power someplace. But, Murphy is what he is, and he's not – at least in this stage of his career – a power hitter.
Then it became obvious: The keys to the Mets offense has always been Jose Reyes. When he's running, stealing bases, legging out triples and beating out bunts, and going into the hole for the ball, that's when the Mets are at their best.
Of all the position players, he's the one who needs to be at his best if the Mets are to prove last year was an injury-riddled fluke. If Reyes is on his game, the Mets go from being a listless team to a dangerous one.
The reports so far have been positive on his rebab, but he's not tested them under baseball conditions. When he does, we might gain a greater insight as to where this season will go.
Pitchers and catchers less than two weeks.

Current Law Students / UBaltimore Fall 2005« on: April 23, 2005, 09:11:18 AM »
So who else is starting University of Baltimore this fall and why? I chose it because of all of the schools I got into, it offers the best program in family law and I can afford it without taking on loans above the federal max. And because a lot of judges in Maryland graduated UB. I also love the city. I hope they get more money from the state to improve their facilities so they can get the higher ranking they deserve.

The rampant outbreak of corruption, indictments and arrests of elected officials throughout New York State has been rooted in the New York State Legislature. It unfortunately speaks to a hideous culture of corruption entrenched in Albany and localities, most notably in New York City . Sadly, the deafening silence from most New York State elected officials is an indictment of the unfortunate political culture that has grown and prospered over the years..
Public service was once an honorable pursuit in the Empire State; it's been tarnished with the prevalence of corruption, fraud and self-serving individuals taking advantage of their political positions. When this occurs on the public dime, not only is it worse, but it also shatters the public trust.
As Ranking Member of the New York State Assembly Committee on Ethics and Guidance, it's my job to resolve facts on cases brought in front of us. Unfortunately, where there is criminality involved, cases first proceed through the criminal justice system. But there is no warm place in any reasonable person's heart for an elected official – someone entrusted to work tirelessly on behalf of the honest, hard-working people of their district – guilty of crimes or wrongdoings. The guilty besmirch the hard work that many of us do on all levels of government – state, county, town, village and others.
The citizens of New York deserve answers that are not mired in political intrigue or spin, cloaked in legal technicalities or coded language or provided to them piecemeal by the whim of those who hold state elected or political leadership positions.
It is time to put an end to the despicable practices of public corruption, graft and greed, which, unfortunately, too many politicians treat as the normal way of doing business.
New York State is mocked nationally for perpetuating a "pay-to-play" and "show-me-the-money" culture. While New York is recognized for its position, dead last, in tax- and business-friendly environments, it continues to be rocked by self-serving politicians on different levels of government taking bribes and committing fraud to line their own pockets, often while their own communities suffer.

- What are your tips for creating a beautiful, healthy and organized bedroom?:
- Use items you love and opt for dual functionality if you can. Have a place for everything and everything in it's place!
- In modern homes, bedrooms have become more than just a place to sleep; they can be a retreat, a home office, a library, a relaxation zone. What are some ways you make the most of your bedroom?:
- My bureau allows my to bring my office into my bedroom since we don't have room in our apartment for a separate office. It also doubles up as my dressing table. I love that I can close it away and I get my bedroom back. The fabric on my chair is a Liberty silk because there should always be beauty in function.

Hi everyone, I am posting early tonight � must be due to rising early this morning to go to the local market.
Nev, are you still chasing neo Lime & Lava. At the market, one of the brom sellers had two nice Lime & Lava pups, so I bought both of them � one for me and one for you, if you are still looking for it. If you have already sourced one, no problem, I will keep both or perhaps someone else would like to have it. Anyway, it�s yours for a swap if you want it. It has little marks on a couple of its� leaves but it�s a nice healthy pup, I will post a pic.
I will try to get a neo Chlorostricta F2 pup and the Lime and Lava (if you want it) posted early next week so that they are not held up with the Xmas public hols.
Bree, if you would like the other Chlorostricta F2 pup, just let me know.
Nev, I know what you mean about electrical appliances, trouble is, we generally find that when one thing goes, two more follow ... so fingers crossed. I shouldn�t complain as we worked out that the TV that died was probably 14 years old and we never once had an ounce of trouble with it. They don�t make �em like that anymore. At the risk of hexing myself, our fridge in the kitchen is more than 20 years old and working great. We have another in the games room (actually, it�s more of a storage room for good junk) and that must be getting on to 15 years old. Like I said, fingers crossed.
We got our new TV, they are so much cheaper now than they were a few years ago. We could only go to 32� as it had to fit into a cabinet. We got an LG 32� LED LCD flat screen HDMI TV with all the bells and whistles, for a little over $300.00 and it fits perfectly.
Ian, your neos Red Macaw and Correia Araujoi look quite similar. I have a neo I bought as Correa Araujoi but it�s got spots, a bit like neo Marmorata, maybe it�s incorrectly named. I�ll see if I can find a pic.
I also bought two unnamed broms at the market, an albo marginated neo which I think could be Predator but there are so many that look so much alike � can anyone help me with an ID, please. I also bought an aechmea (I think) and if anyone knows what it is, that would be great. He�s a big fella, about 2 foot high, a lovely maroon-purple-brown colour with silvery streaks and he�s a bit spikey but not overly nasty.
Pics are 1 neo Lime and Lava pup (for Nev), 2 my neo named Correia Araujoi (for Ian), 3 unnamed neo, possibly Preditor ? and 4 unnamed aechmea ?
Anyway, time to think about dinner.
Bye for now, Shirley

With no examples of actual persecution of Christians in this country, the Christian right is always on the lookout for opportunities to invent wildly ridiculous predictions of the persecution to come. Michael Farris says that Obama may issue an executive order banning homeschooling. Talking about a case where a German family is seeking asylum because that country won't let them homeschool their kids:
plying for asylum and we really don't need to worry about it after all, how does this impact me? Why does this matter? How can this impact the homeschooling freedom that we have right here in the United States?
Farris: It can because of the precedent that any case like this can set and it also reveals the heart and intention of our current administration. Their belief is anti-individual liberty on a very broad basis and their group think is at a deep and dangerous level. That repudiation of individual liberty should shock every American. Secondly, for homeschooling itself specifically, you know we've seen executive orders on lots of different subjects and so if President Obama gets it in his head that he is going to issue an executive order to ban homeschooling, you know, I wouldn't put it pass that administration to try something like that especially as they get closer to the end of this four year term. They are capable of anything, who knows?
Such an executive order would be struck down in a New York minute. No president has such authority. Have you noticed that all of Obama's previous executive orders have not been challenged in court? That's because he's stuck within his executive authority. Even if Congress tried to ban homeschooling — which is about as likely as me winning an Academy Award — the courts would strike it down. But hey, when you're trying to scare your followers into sending you money to protect rights that aren't actually at risk, irrelevant details like, oh, reality just don't enter the equation.

Get Smart: Recognizing Poisonous Plants
Poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac. These clever plants have developed a defense mechanism that means contact with them causes a red, itchy and painful rash that can last a week or more. If you tussle with them, you'll lose every time. Here's a handy rundown of their identifying features so you can avoid them (and disaster) altogether.
1. Poison ivy grows throughout North America in wooded areas, especially near the outskirts, and is sometimes found on exposed rock and as underbrush in open fields. It can be a shrub-like cluster or a vine crawling up other plants. Identify it by its cluster of three leaves with reddish hairs on the vine. It has no thorns.
2. Poison oak is an upright shrub that grows in thickets and forests along the western coast. Like poison ivy, its leaves grow in groups of three but with scalloped edges (resembling the leaves of an oak tree, hence the name). The leaves range in color from reddish to bright green, depending on the time of year.
3. Poison sumac grows in wet, swampy areas, commonly in the southern and eastern US and Canada. Unlike poison ivy and poison oak, it's a small tree or large shrub, and instead of growing in groups of three, its branches grow between 7 and 13 leaves. The leaves are oblong, tapering to a sharp point. You can identify the poison variety of sumac by its drooping green berries while harmless regular sumac has bright red, upright clusters of berries.
The skin reaction is not to the plants themselves, but to their toxic sap called urushiol. It's found in all parts of the plant, not just the leaves (a common myth). Also keep in mind that any exposure to urushiol will cause a reaction, even if it's indirect contact with gardening tools or clothing.
If you can treat the exposed area soon enough, you may be able to avoid or lessen the reaction. Rinse well with water only (soap can spread the sap), then use antihistamines and hydrocortizone creams to alleviate the symptoms. Soaking in a cool oatmeal or baking soda bath can also help soothe the itching.
If you've ever been sidelined by these nasty plants, you know it's well worth the extra diligence to avoid them when gardening, hiking or camping this summer. Check the photos and save your sanity!

4x AA for 1.5-10 hours, depending on the power settings. YS mount included. Push-button switch, at the back of the light.
He said it cost about $200, putting it in the same realm as the Patima light I was also considering, and in between the two big blue lights (price-wise).
I'm trying to find a US-based dealer that lists the light on their website as we speak... so far I only see a Canadian shop selling it for $295 (Canadian).
The Patima light I have been considering is the Big Bear PL50 ($225 at Reef)... anyone know anything about it? Looks a little large, but otherwise specs seem decent... perhaps comparable to the Fix 500 but $75 cheaper.

John Garland, former U.S. Army sergeant
Garland, 40, had heard about Clarkson while he was in high school in nearby Franklin County. "I had applied and was accepted at Clarkson in 1987, but didn't feel I could afford it at the time, so I joined the Army."
Garland served until 1993 and was stationed at Lowry Air Force Base in Denver and Fort Polk, LA. He took a break from the Army until 2003, after which he served at Redstone Arsenal, AL; Camp Humphries, South Korea; Fort Drum, NY; Fort Belvoir, VA; and Fort Bragg, NC.
"My job in the Army, from Lowry AFB in 1987 until Ft Drum in 2005, was Calibration Technician," Garland said. "I worked in a lab making sure test instruments were accurate and traceable to NIST." NIST stands for National Institute of Standards and Technology, which makes sure certain types of equipment use the same measurement standards.
After Fort Drum, Garland went to Prime Power Production Specialist school, where he learned how to install, operate and maintain electrical power plants. He was a prime power production specialist with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Fort Bragg until he left the Army in 2009. "At Ft Bragg our mission was to work with FEMA providing emergency power." During his break from the Army between 1993 and 2003, Garland first worked for the Army as a civilian calibrator and then enrolled at Clarkson in 1998 as a transfer student from SUNY Potsdam. He graduated with a major in physics, received his master degree and became a doctoral candidate. "I did my preliminary defense in June of 2003 just before going back into the Army."
After his second term of service ended in February of 2009 he returned to Clarkson to finish his Ph.D. He lives in his hometown of Westville and commutes the 40 minutes to attend classes. His wife is also in the Army and is deployed until 2010, "so I have time to concentrate on school."
Garland said he enjoys his studies. "I like how you can explain an apparently complex set of interactions with just a few rules." The lab work he's doing involves electrical batteries and solar cells, which is right up his alley. "It's a good fit to get a Ph.D. in a related field," he said. "The things I'm interested in are here at Clarkson."
His immediate goal is to finish his Ph.D., then return to North Carolina to wait until his wife retires. After that, they'll both likely seek consulting jobs overseas until they decide to return to North Carolina permanently.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Lipscomb men's tennis team will kick off their fall season this weekend when they travel to Knoxville to compete in the "Tennessee Fall Invitational" hosted by the University of Tennessee.
Lipscomb will be competing against several ranked schools and head coach Andrew Harris and assistant coach Mike Sherman hope to see their team elevate their play against these opponents, particularly in doubles play.
"At the Tennessee tournament this year, the coaching staff is excited to see how the men's team will do after seeing improvement from last season," Sherman said. "After performing poorly in doubles last season, expectations are higher this year after many players have worked to improve that facet of their game."
With a fairly young team, the coaches also hope to see players step up into leadership positions.
"For this tournament and the rest of the fall season, Coach Harris and I are also looking for improvement in leadership skills from many of the older players," Sherman said. "This fall season will be the toughest schedule the men's team has faced since moving to Division I, and we as a staff are looking for leaders to step up to the challenge."
The men signed two new freshmen during the offseason with hopes of adding more depth to their roster as they continue to improve their program.
Stuart Tierney, a freshman from Hillsboro, Ore.,, and Texan Daniel Hernandez both bring an array of different strengths to the men's roster.
"Stuart Tierney brings a new level of athleticism to the Bisons with his great speed, big forehand and powerful serve," Sherman said. "He already has many pieces of the puzzle that few other freshman possess, which will serve him well in his collegiate career. Coach Harris and I cannot wait to see how he develops mentally and physically over the next four years.
"Daniel Hernandez comes from a great legacy of Texas players the Bisons have had over the last several years. He relies on his penetrating backhand and aggressive strokes to put the pressure on opponents early. Like Stuart, when he develops the physical side of his game more fully, he will be an extremely dangerous player in the Atlantic Sun."
The Bisons begin competition in the "Tennessee Fall Invitational" Friday morning and will return to Nashville on Sunday.

Beyond the Marriott Breach - What to Expect in 2019
Dec 19 2018
9:30 pm
60 mins
Speakers: Nir Gaist, CTO/Founder and Robert Zamani, Director of Solutions Architect. Moderator: Rene Kolga, Product
What will 2019 bring for the security landscape? How many Marriott-like breaches should you expect? What new types of attacks are you likely to see, and what can you do now to prepare for them? Nyotron's team of security experts will have the answers for you during our December 19th live webinar.
Making informed predictions first requires thinking back on 2018 with a critical eye. We will review a few of the most significant vulnerabilities and data breaches that made national headlines, from the City of Atlanta to Meltdown and Spectre, to the Marriott debacle and why the healthcare industry appears unable to defend itself. Our panel will also discuss the issues and trends they expect will dominate 2019, including adversarial artificial intelligence (AI) and destructive attacks on ICS.
We will wrap up with ideas on how you can make an effective case for additional security budget and how to educate yourself about the changing threat landscape (and to get those CPE's before the year's end).

Bhavani Yellapragada, AVP of DevOps, Nasdaq
IT leaders look to technology as a business differentiator and rely on it to foster innovation. Enterprises have discovered that hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) can be the foundation of a modern, cloud-like datacenter. But don't stop there — going beyond HCI delivers more savings, increases IT agility, and supports multi-cloud goals when you add virtualization as an integral part of your stack.
How do you harness the power of HCI and virtualization? Sure, there are a wide variety of tools on the market, but choosing the wrong HCI platform could limit your options in how you operate your datacenter or could impede cloud goals — including those associated with virtualization.
To learn more about the power of HCI and virtualization, how virtualization can remove complexity and increase efficiency, and how to choose the right HCI tool, don't miss this VB live event!
Registration is free.
Attend and learn:
* How virtualization platform options on the market compare
* Why to consider changing virtualization solutions
* How to choose the right virtualization solution
* How to save thousands in virtualization licensing costs

Planning on doing business overseas? Establishing a new office in a foreign land, or selling online to consumers in a new country? When going over company requirements for working in your new neighbourhood, don't forget to review corporate privacy practices.
When it comes to privacy, expectations, safeguard minimums and rights of the data subject can vary between jurisdictions. From Canada and the United States, the European Union with its new GDPR, Japan, Australia, even between China and Hong Kong, there's no single set of global standards. Fortunately however, many privacy legislations do contain common ground. There are also ways to proactively account for the differences.
Information and Privacy Professional Victoria McIntosh presents a taste of privacy across the globe, with some of the ways businesses can prepare in dealing with data across borders.

Today's organizations face a cybersecurity landscape more difficult to navigate than ever before. When it comes to data breaches, the risk for organizations is high, from the easily calculable costs of notification and business loss to the less tangible effects on a company's brand and customer loyalty. With large-scale data breaches continuing to make the headlines in 2018, organizations must be proactive, not reactive, in the face of looming cyber threats. Proactive threat intelligence can enable organizations to prevent breaches or compromises before they occur.

[Earn 1 CPE] Compliance vs Risk: Aligning Priorities & Prioritizing Threats
Sep 27 2018
62 mins
Colin Whittaker, Moderator. Stephen Boyer, CTO at BitSight; Marc French, SVP at Mimecast; Scott Petry, CEO at Authentic8.
Compliance is a fundamental pillar to effective risk management at any company. However, simply complying with laws and regulations without considering the broader threat landscape can result in disaster. Certainly, a balance between compliance and risk is necessary. Ensuring compliance represents an organization's starting point, not the endgame, should be a priority.
In a dynamic threat environment, forward-thinking organizations have concluded that the goal of total protection is elusive and that a risk-based approach to governance and management of cybersecurity is necessary. That is easier said than done, as the way most information security professionals measure risk today fails to quantify threats in terms the business can understand and use. In this CPE accredited webinar, our panel of experts will discuss:
- Aligning risk and compliance metrics and controls across functional domains.
- Benchmarking existing process for managing the risks identified by stakeholders.
- Creating a transparent 'system of record' and collaborative process life-cycle management system.
- Prioritizing control efforts accordingly.
- Aligning compliance investments with compliance risk ratings and business priorities.

GDPR 101: Monitoring & Maintaining Compliance After the Deadline
Aug 28 2018

Dr. Branden Williams, Union Bank; Janalyn Schreiber, TrustArc; Eugene Tyrrell, Online; Chris DePippo, DXC; Tim White, Qualys
Achieving and maintaining GDPR compliance is a complex and expensive initiative for companies of all sizes, across all geographies and industries, and tech giants have already been sued for violating the terms, while major newspapers have been forced to restrict EU access to their websites for fear of noncompliance.
In June 2018, Dimensional Research on behalf of TrustArc surveyed 600 legal, information technology and privacy professionals, and found that 20% of companies surveyed believe they now are GDPR compliant, while 53% are in the implementation phase and 27% have not yet started their implementation. Now three months after deadline, it's clear that there is a lot work yet to be done in order for all companies to achieve full GDPR compliance.
In this CPE accredited webinar, our panel of experts will discuss the main issues and attendees will learn:
- The latest techniques to protect data and remediate breaches.
- How GDPR can support your corporate values and drive business value for customers and partners.
- What your organization needs to uncover data risks and avoid fines.
- How technology can enable continuous monitoring, maintenance, and demonstration of GDPR compliance, in an ongoing and efficient manner.

Should More Protection Really Equal More False Positives?
Aug 15 2018
30 mins
Nir Gaist, Founder & CTO, Nyotron
Security professionals accept the paradigm of "more protection equals more false positives (FPs)" as a fact of life. The tighter they make the "screws" of the security policies in their DLP, Web or Email Gateways, UEBA, application control/whitelisting and AV tools, the higher the likelihood something benign is misclassified as malicious. That's why it is not uncommon to see false positive rates exceed 5% using the most aggressive settings.
What if we were thinking about this wrong? Can we break this correlation between more security and more FPs?
During this webinar we will briefly review the definition of false positives, false negatives, true positives and true negatives, as well as the history of "more protection = more FPs" paradigm. Then we will turn the paradigm on its head and discuss how more protection can actually mean fewer FPs.

Jul 26 2018
76 mins
Moderator: Colin Whitaker. Panel: Sooji Seo, RSA; Quin Rodriguez, Riskonnect; Gabriel Gumbs, STEALTHbits; Tim Hill, Centrify
Data protection laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are complex, and can impact a broad range of business roles, including legal, audit, HR and finance, not just IT. In achieving GDPR compliance, organizations should focus on getting these roles to work together in ongoing efforts to ensure governance, risk and compliance (GRC) across an organization, and not be distracted by the noise in the marketplace. Through the process of integrating GRC practices real value can be achieved, as long as all stakeholders work with one another and take practical, measured steps toward integration. Join our panel of experts on this CPE accredited webinar to learn how your organization can achieve this.
Learning Objectives
- Find out how to align risk management with enterprise performance management under the GDPR.
- Learn how to work with stakeholders to effectively integrate compliance activities, and gain transparency, efficiency and agility for process operations.
- Discover how to identify and manage the digital risks that matter, and which risk functions need to transform.

As organizations rely on third parties to grow and thrive, they're exposed to major cybersecurity risks. Mitigating this risk means confronting the potential security vulnerabilities that are present in your third party network, but traditional vendor risk management (VRM) methods are no match for modern threats. According to Deloitte 83% of today's business leaders lack confidence in third party VRM processes.
Join our panel of experts on this CPE accredited webinar to learn how your organization can create a VRM program that's ready and able to stand up to today's third party threat landscape.
Learning objectives:
• Find out how to gain executive leadership buy-in for your VRM program.

Small Business/Big Risk: Cybersecurity for All!
Jun 12 2018
41 mins
Vince Crisler, CEO and Co-Founder, Dark3
Small businesses face great threats from cyber attackers every day, and do so with a fraction of the resources that mid-sized companies and large corporations have at their disposal. A small business's network, its customer data, and its intellectual property is just as critical to its operation as a firm 100 times its size, but it lacks the skills, the processes and the technology to keep pace with ever-present cyber threats and defend itself. Join us for this session where Dark3 experts will outline how small businesses can protect themselves effectively by taking advantage of the confluence of cloud-based technologies, scalable automation and enterprise-grade cybersecurity expertise.

Urinary incontinence is defined as the loss of bladder control. It is a very common and often embarrassing problem. The severity of urinary incontinence can range from occasionally leaking urine when you cough or sneeze to having an urge to urinate that's so sudden and strong you cannot get to the restroom in time.
Even today, incontinence is an underreported condition. About 20 million women in the US are afflicted with some form of incontinence. Due to embarrassment, low expectations of efficacy and treatment, and a poor awareness of treatment options, the condition is often never diagnosed, or if diagnosed, remains untreated. Typical causes of incontinence include family history, childbirth and aging.
There are two main categories of incontinence. Straining-related Urinary Incontinence (SUI) is defined as involuntary leakage associated with exertion, coughing, sneezing or laughing. Whereas Urge Incontinence (UI) is defined as involuntary leakage that occurs in association with a sudden, strong urge to urinate and is often associated with Overactive Bladder Syndrome (OAB). Some women can even suffer from both.
Evaluation of incontinence relies upon proper assessment of bladder function and anatomy. This includes a physical examination, and ideally, Urodynamics, a computerized bladder function study and Cystoscopy, which allows a look into the bladder endoscopically. The findings ultimately help to properly direct treatment as follows:
Straining-related Urinary Incontinence (SUI) – Treatment
Non-surgical treatment of SUI is based around treatments and lifestyle alterations such as weight loss, smoking cessation, and pelvic floor strengthening. Treatments include Kegel exercises that strengthen the pelvic floor muscles by tightening and relaxing. Magnetic therapy can also be employed as an in-office, non-invasive pelvic floor strengthening therapy.
Minimally invasive treatments are also available. These treatments are administered in the doctor's office with minimal discomfort and women can safely resume activities the same or next day. They include application of bulking agents around the urethra that can increase resistance at the bladder neck, and radiofrequency heat therapy, which can firm up the natural collagen at the bladder neck.
Surgical treatment of more severe SUI includes bladder neck and mid-urethral slings using biological tissue or synthetic mesh. These are vaginal procedures that can be performed in Outpatient Surgical Centers.
Urge Incontinence (UI) / Overactive Bladder Syndrome (OAB)– Treatment
Non-surgical treatment of UI involves the use of pelvic floor strengthening and/or medications, and in some instances, vaginal estrogen therapy. A newer, non-medication approach to treating UI is Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (PTNS). This in-office procedure is delivered through intermittent stimulation of the tibial nerve over twelve bi-monthly sessions each of a 30 minute duration.
Surgical management of UI includes two options that increase bladder capacity and decrease urinary incontinence and frequency. Performed in the office, Bo-Tox injections directly into the bladder muscle can provide relief for up to 6 months. And on an outpatient basis, surgical implantation of a sacral nerve stimulator resulted in long-term decreases in leakage episodes and improvement in quality of life.
In summary, urinary incontinence does not have to go untreated. These numerous options allow for development of patient-specific strategies, successful treatments and overall improvement in quality of life.

Chicken Man
Karl Addison
Drawing - Drawing
Art & drawing becomes my visual identity to all the images that are alive in my head. The aspects of who I am come out in small details throughout my artwork. Parts of my life dictate the subject matter � emotional catastrophes, self image, experiences & my environment all entwine together. The aspiration of my work is to share these visual images beyond my own reality and with those that contribute to it. The raw basics of my artwork are simple � a few different styles of ink pens and a couple blank sheets of paper. Most concepts brew in my head for a few weeks before they are sketched in. By the time my process starts there is general intent and composition behind it. Details are always left blank; this allows me the flexibility to change my artwork during the process. The originals are stored away in my archival books, but the images are re-produced using several printmaking techniques I have taught myself. - karl addison http://idrawalot.com/ http://www.partybots.org/

Bringing eats and libations to a picnic or cookout often requires some planning — unless you're asked to bring a few bags of chips.
Bringing eats and libations to a picnic or cookout often requires some planning — unless you're asked to bring a few bags of chips.
You'll want to consider what others are bringing (Hint: Don't assume. Check with organizers.), how many people are expected and whether a dish needs to be kept safely chilled.
Make sure a few classics will be on the table (mom's baked beans? Your niece's famous potato salad?), then change things up a bit.
We have a few suggestions, including a trio of easy-to-prepare, easy-to-tote flavorful foods that make good use of the season's best. A bonus: The oven-baked chicken and hand pies can be prepared a day ahead. And we've paired them with an assortment of beers to complete the meal.
German pilsner: Crisp and dry with more bite than conventional American-style pilsners, German-style pilsners are ideal picnic beers for their clean, refreshing nature. But they also pair brilliantly with many foods, especially the light meatiness of Baked Herb Chicken. Two to try: Prima Pils from Victory Brewing, which may be the finest pilsner in American craft brewing, and the always dependable Trumer Pils.
Saison: Widely considered the ultimate beer style in food pairing for its unique ability to be complexly zesty without being flashy. Rather than simply refresh like a German pilsner, a saison will add another layer of flavor to your meal. Two to try: Saison Dupont, a longtime genre classic that cuts masterfully through the creaminess of the peas-and-farro salad, and the lightly tart Sofie, from Goose Island, which refreshes and elevates any meal, but especially a warm-weather picnic.
Fruit lambic: And for dessert, the cherry notes of Lindemans Kriek beautifully mimic the dessert's sweet-tart dynamic while also cutting through and balancing the flaky, buttery crust.
Legs and thighs work well for the following recipe; if using breasts, cut them crosswise into serving-size pieces.
Baked Herb Chicken
Prep: Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a pie pan, mix 2 cups coarsely crushed cornflakes, 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons each dried basil and dried thyme, 3/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Pour 2/3 cup canned evaporated milk into a second pie pan. Coat and bake: Rinse and pat dry 3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces. Roll chicken pieces in milk then in cornflake mixture. Place, skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. Drizzle with remaining milk and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Bake until juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. Serve immediately. Or cool, cover and refrigerate until serving.
Makes six to eight servings.
If you're taking this salad to a picnic or cookout, pack the watermelon, parsley and cheese separately; add to the farro-peas mixture to serve.
Pea, Watermelon and Farro Salad
Makes four servings. Adapted from Cooking Light's "Pick Fresh Cookbook" (Oxmoor House, $21.95).
Simmer: Place 1 cup uncooked farro or wheat berries in a large saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Heat to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 23 minutes or until desired degree of chewy doneness. Add 1 cup green peas, fresh or frozen; cook until crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Drain. Rinse with cold water; drain. Toss: Gently toss farro and peas in a large bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Add 2 cups cubed, seeded watermelon and 1 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley; toss to combine. Top with 1/3 cup shaved pecorino Romano cheese. Drizzle with 2 or more tablespoons of olive oil, if you prefer a more moist salad.
This free-form approach lets you choose shapes and sizes for the mini-pies; you may have filling or crust left over.
Peach Hand Pies
Makes about 24 four-inch pies. Adapted from "Handheld Pies" (Chronicle Books, $19.95) by Sarah Billingsley and Rachel Wharton.
Roll: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Take dough for 1 double-crust pie (homemade or packaged). Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll one portion of the dough into a 12- to 14-inch square. Cut into 4- to 5-inch squares or circles. Gather up and reroll scraps only once or dough will become tough. Repeat with second portion of dough. Fill: Combine 6 cups peaches (in 1/4-inch dice), 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a bowl; mix gently. Place about a tablespoon or so filling in center of each square or round. Fold dough over filling so edges meet. Moisten edges of dough. Press edges together to seal; or use tines of fork to crimp. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours) before baking. Bake: Arrange pies on rimmed baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Brush lightly with 1 beaten egg; sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake until crust is golden, 15-20 minutes. Carefully move pies to a baking rack; cool at least 15 minutes. Store cooled pies in an airtight container at room temperature up to two days.

Windows Paramount Protection is a rogue anti-spyware program from the Rogue.FakeVimes family of computer infections. This program is considered scareware because it displays fake scan results, fake security warnings, and does not allow you to run programs on your computer. Windows Paramount Protection is distributed through web sites that display a fake online virus scanner that states your computer is infected and then prompts you to download the installation file. This infection is also promoted by hacked web sites that contain exploit code that tries to install the infection on your computer without your permission or knowledge.
When Windows Paramount Protection is installed it will be configured to automatically start when you login to Windows. Once started, it will pretend to scan your computer and then states that there are numerous infections present. If you attempt to remove any of these supposed infections, the program will state that you first need to purchase a license before being allowed to do so. As all of the scan results are false, please ignore any prompts to purchase the program.
To protect itself from being removed, Windows Paramount Protection will also block you from running any legitimate application on your computer. It does this to prevent you from running legitimate security software that may detect it as an infection and remove it. The message that you will see when you attempt to run a program is:
Firewall has blocked a program from accessing the Internet
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
is suspected to have infected your PC.
This type of virus intercepts entered data and transmits them
to a remote server.
When you see this message please ignore it as your programs are not infected and will work normally after this infection is removed. While Windows Paramount Protection is running it will also display fake security alerts that are designed to make you think your computer has a severe security problem. Just like the scan results, these warnings are fake and can be ignored.
As you can see, this infection was created for the sole reason of scaring you into purchasing it. It goes without saying that you should definitely not purchase Windows Paramount Protection, and if you already have, please contact your credit card company and dispute the charges stating that the program is a scam and a computer virus. To remove Windows Paramount Protection and other related malware, please use the free removal guide below.
Windows Paramount Protection Removal Options
Self Help Guide
If you are uncomfortable making changes to your computer or following these steps, do not worry! Instead you can get free one-on-one help by asking in the forums.
- For the first part of this removal guide you will need to use a different
computer than the infected one in order to download and save some files that we need for the fix.
- On a clean computer, start a web browser and download and save the following Windows Registry file to your desktop from the link below:
- When the file has finished downloading, please burn it on to a CD or save it to a USB drive so that we can transfer the file to the infected computer.
- When you have finished saving the RemVimes.reg registry file to a removable media, please reboot the infected computer. While the computer is starting please
being to repeatedly tap the F8 key on your keyboard. This
will open up the Advanced Boot Options screen, in Windows
7 or Vista, or the Windows Advanced Options Menu in Windows
XP. The screen that you need to get to will look similar to the one below.At the above screen you will see a variety of options that can be used to boot Windows. Using the arrow keys on your keyboard, highlight the option labeled Safe Mode with Command Prompt. Once it is highlighted, click on the Enter key on your keyboard.
- Windows will now start and if you have multiple accounts or a password on
your single account, you will be presented with a screen asking you to login
to Windows. Please select your account and enter any password that you may
have. When done, the Windows Command Prompt will open and you will see a screen
similar to the one below.
The Command Prompt allows you to type commands and then press Enter on your keyboard to execute them. In this Command Prompt window, please type explorer.exe and then press Enter on your keyboard.
- The Windows desktop will now appear. When the desktop appears you can then
close the Command Prompt window by clicking on the X.
- Now insert your CD or USB drive and open up the drive letter associated with your inserted media. You can access this drive letter by opening the Computer icon on your desktop or from the Start Menu. Once the drive letter is open, double-click on the RemVimes.reg and allow the data to be merged when you are prompted. Once the data has been merged, you can press the OK button and remove the removable media from your computer.
- Please reboot your computer into the normal Windows mode and login as the infected user. When you are back at your normal Windows desktop please continue with the next step.
- At this point you should download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, or MBAM, to scan your computer for any any infections or adware that may be present. Please download Malwarebytes from the following
location and save it to your desktop:
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Download Link (Download page will open in a new window)
- Once downloaded, close all programs and Windows on your computer, including
this one.
- Double-click on the icon on your desktop named mb3-setup-1878.1878-22.214.171.1249.exe.
This will start the installation of MBAM onto your computer.
- When the installation begins, keep following the prompts in order to continue
with the installation process. Do not make any changes to default settings
and when the program has finished installing, make sure you leave Launch
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware checked. Then click on the Finish button. If MalwareBytes prompts you to reboot, please do not do so.
- MBAM will now start and you will be at the main screen as shown below.
Please click on the Scan Now button to start the scan. If there is an update available for Malwarebytes it will automatically download and install it before performing the scan.
- MBAM will now start scanning your computer for malware. This process can
take quite a while, so we suggest you do something else and periodically
check on the status of the scan to see when it is finished.
- When MBAM is finished scanning it will display a screen that displays any malware that it has detected. Please note that the infections found may be different
than what is shown in the image below due to the guide being updated for newer versions of MBAM.
You should now click on the Remove Selected button to remove all the seleted malware. MBAM will now delete all of the files and registry keys and add them to the programs quarantine. When removing the files, MBAM may require a reboot in order to remove some of them. If it displays a message stating that it needs to reboot, please allow it to do so. Once your computer has rebooted, and you are logged in, please continue with the rest of the steps.
- You can now exit the MBAM program.
- As this infection is known to be installed by vulnerabilities in out-dated and insecure programs, it is strongly suggested that you use
Secunia PSI to scan for vulnerable programs on your computer. A tutorial on
how to use Secunia PSI to scan for vulnerable programs can be found here:
How to detect vulnerable and out-dated programs using Secunia Personal Software Inspector
Your computer should now be free of the Windows Paramount Protection infection. If your current anti-virus solution let this infection through, you may want to consider purchasing the full version of Malwarebytes Anti-malware to protect your computer against these types of threats in the future.
