WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. — Trains will run a regular weekday schedule on Monday morning on Metro-North Railroad's Hudson and Harlem Lines, as well as on the New Haven Line between Stamford and Grand Central Terminal, Metro-North said late Sunday.
Several minor changes will be made in the service between Stamford and New York. The 6:11 a.m. from Stamford is canceled. Customers who usually catch the 7:35 a.m. out of Port Chester, which also stops at Rye at 7:39 a.m., will be accommodated on the local train that leaves Stamford at 6:59 a.m. — within five minutes of their regular time.
Also, some of the trains that usually stop at Greenwich will not run Monday.
New Haven Line customers should anticipate crowded trains.
The Haverstraw and Newburgh ferries as well as the Hudson Rail Link buses are running.
Trains will operate between New Haven and Stamford at about half of the normal weekday rush hour service level. Train service also will resume on the Danbury and New Canaan Branches but not the Waterbury branch. On the Danbury Branch, all morning trains will run except for the 6:18 a.m. departure.
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority asks all customers to use caution when entering and exiting trains and on the platforms and stairs.
A regular off-peak/midday scheduled will be in operation. The PM peak schedule will be available Monday morning.
Crews worked day and night to remove deep snow from yards in New Haven and Bridgeport and to clear the track switches. In addition to Metro-North forces, about 45 maintenance workers from New York City Transit rode a diesel train to the Bridgeport and New Haven yards to assist in the cleanup effort. Another crew of 45 workers were to arrive at about 9:30 p.m. to continue working in the yards.
Metro-North ran empty trains up and down the line Sunday evening to help clear switches, overhead wires and train roofs to ensure that the infrastructure and trains are operating safely and reliably after the three-day hiatus.

Little League was a long, long time ago
I often joke about how I'm getting older (mostly to elicit a reaction from those older than me) but this week I had a thought occur to me that did, in fact, make me feel old.
I have been working on a special section that highlights the local Little Leagues and it was then that I realized that it has been nearly 30 years since I, myself, was in Little League.
I still vaguely remember it. Thompson's Grocery in Poyen was our sponsor and we had this odd brown and gold color scheme to our uniforms.

American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez was treated to a special serenade by a hopeful who asked to dance with her during his audition for the singing competition.
The pop star is back at work for the upcoming 14th season of the talent show, and during a recent search in Nashville, Tennessee, Lopez happily granted the request of one lucky contestant.
In a video clip released online, the young man asks Lopez to dance, to which she happily obliges. As she rests her head on his shoulder, the contestant serenades her with Sam Smith's Stay With Me, while fellow judges Harry Connick, Jr. joins in on piano and Keith Urban takes hold of the hopeful's guitar and strums along while singing harmonies.
After the soulful serenade, Lopez exclaims, "Thank you! This is so sweet. That's the most fun I've had in months!"
The 14th season of American Idol kicks off in January (15).

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Super Tuscan blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. Full and brilliant red-black color showing very rich aromatics combining savory Tuscan herbs, fresh red cherry, pomegranate, with mocha, wild berry and currants on the nose. Feminine, yet structured with sweet, focused red plum notes and hints of cranberry from the Sangiovese mingle with the expansive, spicy black pepper and black cherry of the Bordeaux varietals.
Food Pairing Notes
This elegant "Super Tuscan" wine goes well with lamb, sausage, grilled steak Venison or a great pasta dish such as Pappardelle with wild boar (Dario's favorite).
1,351 cases
Other Notes
Beginning as early as the late 1960s, a few winemakers in Tuscany attempted to make more complex red wines by planting the classic Bordeaux red grape varieties. While they experimented with these wines as separate varietal blends excluding the regional variety, Sangiovese, they also tried omitting the small amount of the white variety "Malvasia bianca" traditionally added to Sangiovese to produce "Chianti Classico" in lieu of a blend with Bordeaux varietals (namely, cabernet sauvignon and merlot) The term "Super Tuscan" describes a red wine made in this new style. It is aromatic and intense, with a character all its own. Italian examples of the Bordeaux reds from this region are Sassicaia, Ornellaia, and Tignanello, now some of the most revered wines in the world. Examples of the Bordeaux/Sangiovese blends are Guidalberto and Le Volte. La Castellana is similar in style to these wines.

FIRST THINGS FIRST: When Michelle Obama visited London and other European cities earlier this year, she was greeted with front-page photos and rhapsodic editorials about her outfits. That was not the case in Moscow. Coverage was minimal and tended only to include reports on presidential meetings.
Even the Russian fashion industry isn't that wowed by the First Lady. "Her clothes are modest and neutral," was designer Denis Simachev's muted reaction.
This story first appeared in the July 9, 2009 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Fashion insiders attribute the indifference to Obama's outfits — favorites Jason Wu, Michael Kors and Narciso Rodriguez featured prominently on the Russian visit — to anti-Americanism. "It's part of our state policy: America is our enemy, and everything about America is bad," commented Irina Mikhailovskaya, the former editor of Elle Russia.
What's more, Russian taste is for clothing a bit more, well, sparkly. "A lot of Russians think that when something shines, it's beautiful," said fashion historian Alexandre Vassiliev, with a hint of embarrassment.
STATE OF AFFAIRS: American clients were as rare as smiling models during a subdued couture week, supplanted by more buyers from the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Asia. "These are difficult times," Susan Gutfreund said at Chanel on Tuesday, observing a marked drop in attendance from her compatriots. "It's a different mood. My husband's retired, but if he were running a publicly traded company, I would be concerned about being seen."
Suzanne Saperstein, who has taken in most shows this week, said most of her couture buddies are making the rounds, with the notable exception of Becca Cason Thrash, who's taking a course. Citing smaller shows and less showmanship, she suggested couture is simply going back to its showroom roots. "There's always going to be someone that's looking for that special outfit," she shrugged.
HUSH HUSH: High jewelry is a secretive, cosseted world, and Louis Vuitton is a case in point. This week, the French firm quietly invited a handful of select magazine editors to have a preview of a few sets — the first by its new fine jewelry designer, Lorenz Bäumer — ahead of their official launch this fall. Vuitton plans to unveil the collection during Paris Fashion Week, with a party on Oct. 7, the same day as Vuitton's fashion show.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Tommy Hilfiger is feathering a new nest in anticipation of the birth of a son in a few weeks. Hilfiger and his wife, Dee, are moving into a duplex apartment in the tower of New York's Plaza Hotel this fall. The 6,000-square-foot apartment, on the top two floors, has sweeping views of both Central Park and Fifth Avenue. Dee is collaborating with interior designer Cindy Rinfret on the decor, which is being designed "with old-world flavor with a modern twist," said Hilfiger. The space will house the designer's art collection, as well as the couple's expanding brood — with four bedrooms, a nursery and a nanny's room.
Meantime, Hilfiger has another construction project under way. His new Fifth Avenue store, in the former Fortunoff space, will open in September. Hilfiger plans to throw a big opening party at the 20,000-square-foot store right after his fashion show on Sept. 17. "We'll be closing fashion week and opening a new store," he said.

Just the other day we were wondering what was going on with Horex, as we haven't heard from the German brand in nearly nine months. Finally shipping its first bike, the Horex VR6 Roadster, Horex has now announced a second model that is geared more towards mass consumption, the Horex VR6 Classic.
A re-styled, and apparently de-tuned version of the Roadster model, from what we can gather from Horex's press release, the big changes for the Classic are its new aesthetic and reworked motor, which produces 124hp compared to the roadster's 161hp peak figure.

PARIS – Three Kurdish women, including one of the founders of a militant group battling Turkish troops since 1984, were "executed" at a Kurdish center in Paris, the interior minister said Thursday. The news prompted angry crowds of Kurds to flood into the area.
Turkey's Anadolu news agency identified one of the victims as Sakine Cansiz, a founding member of the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK. Turkey and its Western allies, including the United States and the European Union, consider the group a terrorist organization.
French Interior Minister Manuel Valls, who visited the pro-Kurdish center in Paris where the bodies were found, said the deaths were "without doubt an execution." He called it a "totally intolerable act."
RTL radio reported that all three women were shot in the head, but French police would not immediately confirm the report.
Emotions mounted as hundreds of Kurds filled the street in Paris where the bodies were found at the Kurdistan Information Center. Police erected barricades to try to contain the crowd. Some people waved Kurdish flags while others chanted angrily against the Turkish government.
An online site for Kurdish youth called on all Kurds and "friends of Kurds to come to Paris." The site, jeunessekurde.fr, showed three photos of the slain women. It identified the other two as Fidan Dogan, who reportedly was chief of the information center, and Leyla Soylemez.
Police removed the bodies from the center after an initial investigation.
The conflict between the PKK and Turkish troops has claimed tens of thousands of lives since the rebels -- who are seeking self-rule for Kurds in southeast Turkey -- took up arms in 1984. Turkey has resumed talks with the PKK with the goal of convincing the group to disarm.
Kurds make up more than 20 percent of Turkey's 75 million people.
The three women were alone at the center on Wednesday and were unreachable by telephone, said Leon Edart, an official of the Federation of Kurdish Associations of France.
Friends went there after midnight and saw traces of blood on the door which they then broke down, discovering the bodies, he said.
Police and firemen reached the bodies about 1:30 a.m. Thursday, a police official told The Associated Press. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to give his name in keeping with policy.
In Turkey, Selahattin Demirtas, the leader of a Kurdish political party in Turkey's parliament, called on the French government to shed light on the killings "without delay" and in a way that "leaves no room" for doubt.
"We want it to be known that that these assassinations which were carried in the busiest area of Paris cannot be covered up," Demirtas said.
Huseyin Celik, the deputy chairman of Turkey's ruling party, said the attack appeared to be the result of "an internal feud" within the PKK, but did not provide any evidence to back his statement.
Celik also suggested the slayings were an attempt to derail the peace talks.
France has a large Kurdish community concentrated in the Paris region and French police have occasionally arrested Kurds suspected of illegally financing the PKK. The arrests have also followed chiding by Turkish leaders claiming that Europeans were not doing enough to fight terrorism.
Turkish officials say the PKK raises funds through extortion or other criminal activities in European countries that have a large number of Kurdish immigrants.

HOUSTON (AP) -- Two people have been killed and at least 22 others hurt when gunfire rang out at a large house party in suburban Houston, sending partygoers fleeing in panic, authorities said.
The shots erupted late Saturday night at the party where more than 100 mostly young adults had gathered at a home in the Cypress area of Houston's suburbs, the Harris County Sheriff's Office said. A statement from that office said two suspects were being sought early Sunday, but it did not elaborate.
The sheriff's office issued a statement saying a man and a woman were dead and that those hurt had wounds or injuries ranging from minor to critical. None were identified.
A dispatcher with the sheriff's office said she could not immediately release further information and the public information officer for the sheriff's office didn't immediately return messages seeking further details.
Thomas Gilliland, a spokesman with the sheriff's office, told the Houston Chronicle in its online edition early Sunday that some of the wounded received shots to the foot, ankle and hip. He also told the paper that others fleeing the home had injuries such as twisted ankles.
"It was a pretty chaotic scene," Gilliland told the Houston Chronicle.
There was no immediate word on how many shots were fired or a possible motive.

About keyword matching options
Keyword match types help control which searches on Google can trigger your ad. So you could use broad match to show your ad to a wide audience or you could use exact match to hone in on specific groups of customers.
This article explains the different match types that are available. Learn more about adding keywords.
How keyword match types work
In general, the broader the match type, the more traffic potential that keyword will have, since your ads may be triggered more often. Conversely, a narrower match type means that your ads may show less often – but when they do, they're likely to be more related to someone's search.
Understanding these differences can help you to choose the right options and improve your return on investment.
We typically recommend starting with broad match to maximise on the potential for your ads to show in relevant searches. You can also use the search terms report to monitor which keyword variations triggered your ads. Learn more about the search terms report.
Keyword match types
Each match type can trigger your ad to show for a customer's search in different ways. Next, learn a little bit more about each type.
Broad match
Broad match is the default match type that all your keywords are assigned. Ads may show on searches that include misspellings, synonyms, related searches and other relevant variations. So if your keyword is "women's hats", someone searching for "buy ladies hats" might see your ad.
- Example keyword: women's hats
- Example search: buy ladies hats
Broad match modifier
Add a plus sign (for example, +keyword) to modify a broad match keyword. Ads may show on searches that include modified broad match keywords (or close variations, but not synonyms), in any order.
- Symbol: Plus sign, for example +keyword
- Example keyword: +women's +hats
- Example search: hats for women
Learn more about broad match modifier.
Phrase match
Ads may show on searches that match a phrase, or are close variations of that phrase, with additional words before or after. Ads won't show, however, if a word is added to the middle of the phrase, or if words in the phrase are reordered in any way.
- Symbol: "keyword"
- Example keyword: "women's hats"
- Example search: buy women's hats
Learn more about phrase match.
Exact match
Ads may show on searches that match the exact term or are close variations of that exact term. Close variations here may also include a reordering of words if it doesn't change the meaning, and the addition or removal of function words (prepositions, conjunctions, articles and other words that don't impact on the intent of a search).
- Symbol: [keyword]
- Example keyword: [women's hats]
- Example search: hats for women
Negative match
Ads may show on searches without the term. So, if you're a hat company but you don't sell baseball caps, you could add "-baseball caps" as a negative keyword so that your ads don't show for people searching for baseball caps.
Symbol: -keyword
Example keyword: -baseball hats
Example search: women's hats
NOTE: In this example, ads will show in searches for "women's hats" but not in searches for "baseball hats."
Learn more about negative match.
Bear in mind
Keywords aren't case-sensitive, which means that they're matched without regard to upper-case or lower-case letters. For example, you don't need to enter "women's hats" and "Women's Hats" as keywords – just "women's hats" will cover both.
As you'll learn in next sections, symbols have special meanings in Google Ads, so you should generally avoid using them. Also, keywords can't contain any non-standard characters like: ! @ % , *
You can use keyword match types with campaigns that show ads on the Search Network. On the Display Network, keywords are treated as broad match by default.
More on close keyword variations
So that you don't miss out on potential customers, we'll show your ads for close variations of your phrase match and exact match keywords to maximise on the potential for your ads to show in relevant searches. Close variations include misspellings, singular forms, plural forms, acronyms, stemmings (such as floor and flooring), abbreviations and accents. So there's no need to separately add close variations as keywords.
For example, if your phrase match keyword is "kid's scooter", you'd still want to show your ad when someone searches for "kids scooter" or "kid scooters".
Bear in mind that even though we show close variations of your phrase and exact match keywords, these match types still give you more control than broad match and broad match modifier. That's because broad match and broad match modifier keywords also show for synonyms and related searches, which aren't considered close variations.
For app install campaigns, we may extend the scope of some of your keyword match types in ways that are specific to apps. Here's how this can work:
- For exact match and phrase match keywords, we may make small changes to search terms (such as adding or removing the word "app") to better match with your targeted keywords.
- For broad match keywords, we may use app category information to improve both your targeting precision and reach.

Hi All,
I'm sure you are desperate to know who the winners of the 1000th ChocolateMission post competition are, so please let me reveal all ....
Starting with our 3 runners-up we have ....
... each winning a Hotel Chocolat Sleekster Selection box ...
Daniel Ness, Plymouth
Coleen Allison, Leeds
Emma Reid, Berkshire
... and our winner ... taking home the Hotel Chocolat Mini Chocolatiers Table ....
. is .......
Paul Marshall, Oldham
Congratulations to the winners, and thank you all for your entries (more than 10,000!). If you didn't win don't worry ... there will be another competition coming very soon!
During my 1000th post I asked you readers how I should change the site to make it better. Through the mediums of Twitter, e-mail, Facebook and on-site comments I received plenty of suggestions. Here are my comments in regards to the more popular/realistic suggestions I received.
1. "ChocolateMission Chocolate Shop" - I announced at the start of the year that the wheels were motion for me to set up my own shop. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to dedicate enough time to make this a reality as yet. I don't want to make promises, but this is still very much something I would like to have set up and functional by the end of the year. All I can say is keep your eyes and ears open for news in the near future.
2. "Create a Chocolate Swap Shop" - In the coming month I will be creating a section on the site for people to do this. It will be as simple as me creating a page where you guys can leave comments stating where you are based, and what sort of swap you are looking for. I will not be taking responsibility or any governance role over these chocolate swaps, though I will be recognising successful traders in the main body of the post on that page.
3. "Can you review more things we can buy in the UK" - I understand that not being able to buy some of the products I review may be frustrating, however the website is visited by people from all over the world. In order to keep these interesting and to appeal to a wide audience I will have to continue reviewing products from a widespread distribution.
4. "Create a ChocolateMission Forum" - Personally this is something I'm not keen on doing, however if there is widespread demand I will seriously consider it. Currently I think the 'Comment' functionality is working quite well for the site, and the number of posts a day seems to be ever increasing. Whilst I can see the benefits of having a forum, I can also that this would be a lot of additional work for myself what with the upkeep and maintenance demands that such functionality would demand. My suggestion in the short term would be that if you want to create discussions, or debate things ... use the 'Comment' button. If this isn't meeting peoples needs I will happily reconsider my stance.
5. "Improve the website design" - This site is by no means perfect, but I quite like the rough around the edges presentation style. I think if I was to get a snazzier looking design people might think that I am taking myself a little bit too seriously as a 'chocolate critic'. If anyone knows/is a website designer I could possibly be swayed in to changing the design if they could spoon feed me how to make the changes (or want to design it themselves ;) ). One thing I will be changing soon is adding some 'popular brands' buttons to make some of the more popular reviews easier to find. Again any further suggestions on how to improve the site functionality are very welcome.
6. "Make your competitions worldwide" - Yep ok! I promise that by the end of the year I will have at least one competition that is open to EVERYONE. Message received loud and clear :D
7. "Make a thumbs up functionality for the products" - Currently there is a stars rating available under each review. I will be adding a Facebook 'Like' button in the next few days as well.
If I have missed out your suggestion please drop me a note with what it was and I will gt back to you.
A big thanks to everyone who had nice words to say about the site, there were so many of you I was very surprised by all the love. Please continue to read, who knows I may make it to 2,000 posts :D
Have great weekends

Taxus brevifolia
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Taxus brevifolia Nutt.
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Source(s):
|Farjon, A. 2010. A Handbook of the World's Conifers. Koninklijke Brill, Leiden.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Near Threatened ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Thomas, P.
|Stritch, L. & Farjon, A.
Taxus brevifolia has undergone a population decline within the last three generations that is estimated to be less than 30%. A significant part of that decline related to its overexploitation for the production of anti-cancer medicines. This exploitation has largely ceased following the development of alternative methods for Taxol production and the focus on exploiting Asian Yew species. The majority of the Asian species are now listed as threatened in the IUCN Red List and are also listed on Appendix II of CITES.
A second cause for the decline in T. brevifolia relates to habitat destruction from logging activities. This is continuing but at a lower rate. On this basis an assessment of Near Threatened under the A2acd criterion is appropriate until the next assessment.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|Widely distributed in the Pacific northwest of the United States and Canada from northern California to southern Alaska. The extent of occurrence is well in excess of 20,000 km2 and there are more than 10 locations. The area of occupancy is unknown but estimated to be more than 2,000 km2.
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Canada (Alberta, British Columbia); United States (Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Washington)

|Taxus brevifolia is not uncommon within the main range of its distribution. Patterns of distribution vary from scattered to dense patches throughout its wide range. There has been an estimated population reduction of 10-30% within the last three generations as a result of logging and bark harvesting for Taxol production. One generation is estimated to be at least 30 years due to its slow growth rates.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|In coastal areas this very fire susceptible and slow growing species is usually found as a small tree; in montane and some inland areas it may be a decumbent shrub. It is most abundant in the shaded understorey of late seral or old growth coniferous forests (Busing et al. 1995). Common associates in more mesic situations (where most of the trees are found) include Abies grandis, Tsuga heterophylla, Thuja plicata, Berberis nervosa, Polystichum munitum and Acer circinatum. In inland areas and in the drier parts of its range it is restricted to moist areas such as streamsides. Its generation length is likely to be in excess of 30 years. It is recorded from sea level up to 2,440 m.
|Continuing decline in area, extent and/or quality of habitat:
|Generation Length (years):
|Use and Trade:
|The strong, dense timber from this species is highly prized by west coast Native Americans for bows, tools and carving. In the 1980s and 1990s it was heavily exploited for its bark which was used for the production of anti-cancer drugs. Following the discovery of alternative sources and methods for Taxol production by the mid-1990s, the pressure on T. brevifolia populations has eased.
|Major Threat(s):
|Taxus brevifolia was heavily exploited for its bark over a considerable part of its range in the recent past. Populations have also been reduced as a consequence of logging and fires. These latter threats are ongoing. The overall reduction is estimated to be less than 30%.
|Conservation Actions:
|This species is recorded from numerous protected areas throughout its range. Guidelines for the management and harvesting of T. brevifolia were produced in response to its heavy exploitation.

Big 12 Campus Correspondent
Twin Falls, Idaho, and Waco, Texas, don't have much in common. They sit over 1,400 miles apart on the map and, while they are both home to institutions of higher learning, the College of Southern Idaho doesn't run around in the same circles as Baylor University.
However, Baylor basketball guard Pierre Jackson has a special connection to each location. The Las Vegas, Nevada-native has flourished on the basketball court in both the Gem and Lone Star states.
As a kid, Jackson helped his grandmother care for his two younger brothers. It was this responsibility that made a college basketball career seem like a stretch to Jackson.
However, talent was never an issue for the 5-foot, 10-inch guard. Jackson was a three-year letterwinner at Desert Pines High School (Nev.) and earned first-team all-state honors as a senior. During that year, Jackson racked up 736 points, while handing out a state-leading 263 assists.
After his prep career, Jackson went to the College of Southern Idaho where he was able to showcase even more of his abilities. During his freshman year in Idaho, Jackson led the team in both assists per-game (4.6) and steals per-game (1.8), but his season was cut short due to injury.
As a sophomore, he guided the Golden Eagles to their third NJCAA national title with a team-best 18.6 points per game, while also averaging 3.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists in 36 games. Jackson also ranked eighth nationally among NJCAA Division I players with an 87.2 free-throw percentage. The accolades didn't stop there as Jackson was named the NJCAA Division I Player of the Year after CSI's national title run.
Following the two successful years at the junior college level, Jackson decided to take his talents to Texas to play for Scott Drew and the Baylor Bears.
"I came to Baylor because Coach Drew really showed me that he wanted me to come and play for him and my grandmother also wanted me to come to Baylor," Jackson said.
The next step for Jackson was to adapt to the rigors of life in the Big 12 Conference.
"I think the biggest challenge is adjusting to the size and talent," Jackson said. "Everybody is just as fast and strong and the game moves a lot quicker."
Despite the challenges, Jackson has adjusted rather quickly. In his first game for the Bears against Texas Southern, he had eight points, four assists, four rebounds and three steals in only 25 minutes.
The junior has become a spark off the bench for Drew. Playing in his hometown, Jackson was named the Las Vegas Classic MVP, after he scored a game-winning layup with 29 seconds left against Mississippi State. He also finished with a career-high 23 points in an overtime win against West Virginia at the same event.
Through 16 games, Jackson ranks third on the team with 11.9 points per game, while dishing out a team-best 4.9 assists in 26.6 minutes off the bench. Jackson has teamed up with junior A.J. Walton to form one of the nation's best two-guard combos, guiding the Bears to a No. 4 national ranking and a perfect 16-0 record.
The College of Southern Idaho may be a long way from Waco, Texas, but over the past three plus years Pierre Jackson has been right at home in either location. Now, he is working to help the Bears to their first Big 12 title and a deep NCAA run.

Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server builds on Windows SharePoint Services' ability to create team sites by letting you construct a central portal that comprises several different types of sites, links the individual team sites, and lets users share information across them. If you're responsible for implementing and administering your organization's SharePoint Portal Server project, to ensure the project's success you'll need to be familiar with SharePoint essentials: the basic architecture of a SharePoint portal, SharePoint portal area permissions, portal listings, Web Parts, and how to manage the information that's shared through the portal. I'll start here by explaining key aspects of SharePoint's portal architecture—in particular, portal listings and how you can use them to flatten your SharePoint site's navigation structure and aggregate and display information consistently across portal areas. Then, in the upcoming part two of this article, I'll delve into more detail about the visual elements of SharePoint, such as Web Parts, and how to use them to build a SharePoint site's UI. (If you're just beginning the planning phase of your portal, see the sidebar "Planning Your SharePoint Portal," for some planning guidelines.)
SharePoint Architecture
If you're new to SharePoint Portal Server portal design, you'll need to know the following key terms.
Site. A SharePoint site is a Web site that's enabled by SharePoint Web Parts and Windows ASP.NET–based components and contains collaborative content (e.g., documents, discussion groups) for a team. (For more information about SharePoint sites, see the sidebar "Types of SharePoint Sites" in "Making Sense of SharePoint Search," September 2006, InstantDoc ID 50623.)
Portal area. A portal area is generally a special type of one-page, self-contained site that SharePoint Portal Server controls. Multiple portal areas comprise a site. Portal areas are created in a manner that will produce a hierarchical navigation structure (i.e., by using a taxonomy). Generally, administrators and subject matter experts create portal areas. So, for example, the administrator might create a top-level portal area for the HR department, then permit a named individual in HR to create subareas such as Compensation, Vacation, and Procedures.
Each portal area contains various information containers, such as document libraries, lists, and portal listings, which are geared toward the users of that portal area. An individual portal area can maintain only one portal-listing list. (I discuss lists and listings in more detail in the Portal Listings section.) You can target a portal area to specific audiences (an audience is a custom group who can view specific content targeted to that group) who will view the content in that area and set permissions to limit portal-area access to certain users. You can also designate a portal area as hidden from navigation (regardless of the permission settings for that area) as well as whether or not it—and its content—are searchable.
In addition to serving as a site that includes the information containers mentioned earlier, a SharePoint Portal Server portal area can itself be an information container. By placing a Content Editor Web Part on a portal area, you enable that area to become an information container. (I'll discuss Web Parts and other visual elements in SharePoint in part two of this article.)
Document libraries and lists. If you've worked with Windows SharePoint Services, you should be familiar with document libraries and lists. Document libraries and lists are the foundation for maintaining information, such as Microsoft Office files, links, contacts, events, issues, and tasks, on a SharePoint site. A document library contains a collection of documents shared with SharePoint site members. A list is an element of a SharePoint site that contains a collection of items that aren't documents, such as contacts or tasks. (For more information about document libraries, see "Office 2003 and SharePoint: Better Together," December 2004, InstantDoc ID 44156.) Lists are a powerful component of SharePoint and include many features for maintaining fields in a list, such as text, Rich Text Format (RTF), drop-down lists, lookups from other lists, and calculations (e.g., sum, total).
Portal-Area Permissions
Permissions for SharePoint Portal Server and its associated content are less granular than permissions in Windows SharePoint Services. The granularity of permissions derives from the manner in which Microsoft designed each product to be used. Windows SharePoint Services is designed as a secure collaborative environment for managing "work in progress." SharePoint Portal Server is designed to manage published content and provide a single UI containing a holistic view of aggregate information specific to the current user's need—that is, a portal. Portal users have an unlimited view of and access to the portal area, whereas on a Windows SharePoint Services team site, only team members can access the site.
In SharePoint Portal Server, you define portal-area permissions for the portal area itself, and all content associated with that area assumes the same permissions. You set portal-area permissions via the standard Manage Users option that's available for any administrator of a team site or portal area. You can't set specific permissions on a document library or list as you can in Windows SharePoint Services.
Permissions are an important consideration when designing your information structures and determining where they will be physically located. Because permissions are at the portal-area level, you need to be careful when deciding what content goes into what portal area, since anyone who has write access to the portal area will have write access to all content in that portal area. Therefore, you might want to look at your content and group it together by access permission—for example, a portal area for all content that's readable and a portal area for content that's writeable.
You might be tempted to try to circumvent SharePoint Portal Server permissions. For example, some SharePoint administrators have used an unsupported technique published on the Internet that lets you manage the permissions of a specific document library or list within a portal area—that is, it lets you give a list a different set of permissions than those of the portal area. I strongly recommend that you avoid such unorthodox solutions because they can have unpredictable results and Microsoft doesn't support them.
Portal Listings
Portal listings are available only in SharePoint Portal Server, so you might not be familiar with them if you're new to the product. A portal listing is simply a special type of list that's available only on a portal area. Portal listings are a vehicle for displaying information inside a portal area, such as a piece of news. Listings are at the core of information aggregation; they reduce data-entry duplications and provide a consistent presentation layer for your users. Portal listings include the following features:
- Each portal area contains one, and only one, portal-listing list—a list of all the portal listings. That is, the portal-listing list is the container, and the portal listings are the items in the container.
- The content of a portal listing can be either a URL or an RTF document.
- Portal listings can be grouped.
- Portal listings can have an associated image and icon.
- Each item in a portal listing can be filtered from view by using SharePoint's audience feature.
- Each item can have defined publishing dates, so that the item is removed from display in the portal area after the item's expiration date.
- You can set portal listings so that new items must be approved before they're displayed.
- Listings from one portal area can be displayed on any other portal area by using different Web Parts, depending how you want to use them.
As I mentioned, portal listings let you target a specific audience for each item in a listing. When you add a new portal listing to the portal area, you need to choose the audience(s) to target. Be aware that an audience's main purpose is to filter items only; an audience isn't equivalent to security permissions.
For each portal-listing item that you create, you can either reference an existing document reference (i.e., by a URL pointing to the document's location) or enter the RTF document itself. SharePoint Portal Server search will index only the portal-listing information, not any document reference. (For in-depth information about SharePoint's search capabilities, see "Making Sense of SharePoint Search," September 2006, InstantDoc ID 50623.) When you add a new portal-listing item to the portal area and your intent is to reference a document, it's a good practice to enter a description of that reference. Note that search results don't honor audiences.
Unfortunately, portal-listing items are more difficult to remove from a portal area than to add to it. For example, when you create a new Windows SharePoint Services site, you have the option to create any number of portal-listing items in any portal area you have permissions to. If the Windows SharePoint Services site containing these portal-listing items is deleted, the portal listings aren't automatically removed; you need to delete them manually. This situation applies to all portal-listing items that use a reference. If the reference is no longer valid, the portal listing item isn't automatically removed.
Moving On
As you've seen, SharePoint Portal Server incorporates the basic elements of Windows SharePoint Services within the larger framework of a portal area. Becoming familiar with the concepts of portal areas, portal permissions, and portal listings will help you take your first steps in planning and putting together a SharePoint portal for your organization. You'll also need to get a handle on SharePoint Portal Server visual elements, such as Web Parts, and the essentials of developing a navigational structure—which I'll cover in my next article.

Hugo Chavez Loses Battle With Cancer
The controversial and gregarious Venezuelan leader Hugo Chávez Frías died after a long battle with cancer.
CARACAS, Venezuela – After more than two months technically leading his country from overseas, Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez made a surprise return trip home.
Details remain sketchy, but he announced his reappearance early Monday through an announcement on his Twitter account. He had been receiving medical treatment in Cuba as he recuperated from surgery.
Through Twitter, Chávez announced he would continue his medical recovery in Venezuela.
I'm clinging to Christ and trusting in my doctors and nurses.
- Hugo Chávez, President of Venezuela
"We've arrived once again in our Venezuelan homeland. Thank you, my God!!" the first of the three messages said.
They were the first messages to appear on Chávez's Twitter account since Nov. 1.
"I'm clinging to Christ and trusting in my doctors and nurses," Chávez exclaimed in another tweet. "Onward toward victory always!! We will live and we will triumph!!"
Vice President Nicolas Maduro said on television that Chávez at arrived at 2:30 a.m. and was taken to the Carlos Arvelo Military Hospital in Caracas, where he will continue treatment.
Chávez also thanked Fidel and Raul Castro, who have overseen his treatment in Cuba, and thanked his country's people "for so much love."
Chávez's return to Caracas came less than three days after the government released the first photos of the president in more than two months, showing images of him smiling alongside his daughters.
The government didn't release any images of Chávez upon his arrival in Caracas.
"We're very happy," Maduro said. He said he had accompanied the president on the trip, along with Chávez's daughter Rosa, his brother Adan and National Assembly President Diosdado Cabello.
The vice president said that Chávez has been in a "continuous battle" and that additional details will be provided about his condition later.
The government didn't offer an explanation as to why Chávez made his surprise return on Monday. Government officials have in recent weeks said that it wasn't clear when the president's medical team would allow him to return to Venezuela, though they had said they hoped it would be soon.
After the announcement of his return, state television played upbeat music from last year's presidential campaign, repeating the lyrics, "Chávez, heart of the nation!"
The 58-year-old president hasn't spoken publicly since he left for Cuba on Dec. 10. He underwent his fourth cancer-related surgery on Dec. 11, and the government says that he is now breathing through a tracheal tube that makes talking difficult.
Chávez is also undergoing other treatments that have not been specified.
He received cancer treatment in Cuba on-and-off since June 2011. Chávez has said he had tumors removed from his pelvic region and has undergone chemotherapy and radiation treatment.
Throughout the treatments, Chávez has not revealed the type of cancer or the exact location of the tumors.
Chávez was re-elected to a new six-year term in October, and his inauguration had been scheduled for Jan. 10 but was indefinitely postponed by lawmakers due to his condition after the surgery, which the government has described as delicate.
Before leaving for Cuba, Chávez acknowledged there were risks and said that if his illness prevented him from staying on as president, Vice President Maduro should run in a new election to take his place.
Maduro has traveled repeatedly to Havana in recent weeks and has shown documents he said were signed by Chávez, insisting the president remains in charge. Last week, Maduro said Chávez is undergoing "extremely complex and tough" treatments, which he didn't specify.

After two out of this world pitching performances Friday and Saturday the St. Louis Cardinals didn't get one yesterday and paid the price for it. Shelby Miller pitched a gem of a game on Friday night totally dominating the Colorado Rockies and earning the first complete game victory of his young career. Miller started strong and finished strong and got the offensive support he needed from the Cardinals in shutting out the Rockies. As impressive as that was, Adam Wainright was even more impressive on Saturday carrying a no hitter into the eighth inning before giving up a hit which he immediately recovered from and continued his dominate outing. He would give up one more hit before the end of the game but that was it as the Rockies were stymied for the second game in a row and I can't remember the last time I had the pleasure of watching two dominating pitching performances in a row like that. Expectations for yesterday were very high based on the results of the previous two games but Jaime Garcia took care of those expectations quickly as he did not pitch very well and the bullpen didn't pitch much better. The Cardinals ended up losing the game 8 to 2 but that's only because they scored two runs in the bottom of the ninth. Otherwise the Rockies returned the favor as their pitching was very good while the Cardinals pitching was not. The Cardinals continue their home stand tonight as the New York Mets come into town tor a four game series. The game tonight starts one hour earlier than normal because that's the way ESPN wants it and of course we have to do whatever ESPN wants us to.
The Kansas City Royals did not get two dominant pitching performances over the weekend, in fact they didn't get any at all. They were swept by the aging and hurting New York Yankees and only managed to score 4 runs total the last two games of the series. The Royals did score six runs on Friday night which should be enough to win most games unless your pitching staff gives up 10. The Royals head out west to begin a series with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim or whatever they are called now. Speaking of the Angels, for all of you still upset because the Cardinals didn't match the Angels offer for Albert Pujols last year and think the Cardinals would be better if they still had him keep this in mind: Pujols has only played s small handful of games at first base for the Angels this season. The rest of the time he has been their DH because of recurring foot and knee issues. From the articles I have read about him recently it appears unlikely he will ever be able to play first base on an everyday basis this season ans quite possibly in the future. If the cardinals had him on their roster he would be more of a liability at this point than an asset.
The St. Louis Blues saw their season come to an end on Friday night as they were ousted from the playoffs by the physically dominant Los Angeles Kings. Every game in this series was one by one goal and although every game of the series made for great hockey it was readily apparent as the series progressed that the Blues simply couldn't play consistently at the intense level the Kings were able to maintain. The Blues tried, there is no doubt about that, but in my opinion they lost to a better team.
Tiger Woods won the Players Championship on Sunday for his 78th overall tour victory in his career. He had a very good tournament as did several other golfers and Woods has now won the Players Championship for the second time. I might have more to say about that if I had actually watched the tournament but since I didn't and certain people get upset with me if I pick on Tiger too much I'll move on to NASCAR.
For most of the Southern 500 on Saturday night it looked like Kyle Busch was going to get another victory which was not making for a good Saturday night here at the blog. However, Busch began fading as the race got close to the end and Matt Kenseth pulled ahead of Busch and hung on to win at one of NASCAR's most legendary tracks. NASCAR now head to Charlotte for the next couple of weeks as they get ready for their 600 mile race on Memorial Day weekend.
The Truman State women's basketball team suffered a huge blow on Friday with the announcement by head coach Michael Smith that he was leaving the Bulldog program to become the head coach at Northwest Missouri State in Maryville. Smith turned the women's program around during his tenure at Truman and was able to take them to two straight MIAA post season tournaments and in my opinion did an excellent job of not only turning the program around but proved he is an excellent recruiter. Truman's loss is Northwest's gain and I'm very happy we don't have to play them any more. Obviously Truman begins their search for a replacement immediately.
Congratulations to the KHS boys track team on winning their first district title since 1980 on Saturday at the district meet in Mexico. The KHS girls track team finished fourth in the district but had several outstanding performances and several first place finishes. The top four finishers in each event move on to sectionalsthis Saturday also in Mexico and several KHS track athletes will be participating in sectionals with an excellent shot of making the state tournament. For complete results check out today's Kirksville Daily Express.
The KHS boys tennis team will be sending their top singles player and top double team to sectionals today in Fulton.
The KHS baseball team begin district play tonight in Fulton. I would say the baseball team has an excellent opportunity to win the districts and move on to the next round.
The KHS girls soccer team continue their excellent season as they head to Moberly for their district game today as well.
Obviously, there is a lot going on right now on both the local and national level. We'll be back on Wednesday to pick up where we left off and talk more about the local athletes as they continue their post season action. This is one of my favorite times of year as there is so much going on. Thanks as always for checking out this blog and please support the other blogs on this site as well.
Have a great Monday!

If your running is feeling stale, start training for the mile.
Rob Delong was like most kids growing up when it came to running. Every year in gym class, he had to run a mile.
That was the endurance component of the Presidential Physical Fitness Test, a grade school program developed during the Eisenhower administration to encourage American children to be healthy and active after a study showed their European counterparts were much more fit.
Fast-forward 20 years and, in the midst of getting fit for his first marathon, Delong, a 34-year-old Manhattan currency broker, found himself channeling his younger self.
In 2012, with razor-sharp fitness, Delong clicked off a steady percussion of 8:50 miles to finish the Chicago Marathon in 3:52:31. In glancing back through Delong's lightning-fast progression into a fit runner is one particular race highlight that, upon scrutiny, reveals what may be the coolest app of his program: specifically training to run the Fifth Avenue Mile in New York City.
"I hadn't raced an all-out mile since the President's Physical Fitness Test in school," Delong says with a laugh. Training for and racing in a 1-mile race, Delong says, clearly helped him hold a faster marathon race pace in Chicago.
This was by design, says his coach, Brian Rosetti, creator of the Run SMART Project, a group of 10 national-class runner-coaches, at different locations around the country, who guide runners of all levels through individually designed programs set to the doctrines and principles through author and coaching great, Dr. Jack Daniels.
"I have clients who are training for races from the 5K to the marathon," Rosetti says. "The repetition work that our runners do is at their current 1-mile race pace, and it serves the purpose of boosting your economy and efficiency, which feeds into the longer stuff."
Rosetti—a former member of the ZAP Fitness Olympic Development program with track PRs of 3:44 in the 1500 and 8:08 in the 3,000—says that the value of training for the 1-mile race or low-key time trial is not just a matter of increasing speed and efficiency. He argues that it also helps runners reduce the risk of injury.
"There's a misconception that speed work injures people," Rosetti says. "In fact, proper speed training will teach you how to run with good form and build the strength to hold good form longer." It's in longer, fatigue-inducing runs, he explains, that form breaks down and exposes the body's weaknesses to wear-and-tear.
RELATED: 'Bring Back The Mile' Hits Second Lap
The key, Rosetti adds, is to be disciplined in your aerobic training and smart about your speed work. Adding flexibility and agility drills will also help develop speed, but the act of getting faster for a distance runner doesn't come from all-out sprints. Instead, workouts are run at a controlled, sub-maximal pace with small amounts of rest to build speed endurance.
"People get into trouble when they don't understand that what's important is to run the target pace of the rep workouts; not just run them as fast as you can, just because you can," he says.
Turning your workouts into races not only undercuts the true purpose of the workout, but the red-line intensity can wear you down and wear you out, prolonging recovery and increasing injury risk. Additional measures that Rosetti suggests for runners doing speed work at 1-mile race pace are to take the time you need to warm up thoroughly, and be sure to take adequate recovery between the repetitions.
With such precautions in place, Rosetti says that spiking your overall road running and racing plan with an intermediate goal of a mile race or time trial can serve up improved efficiency and strength. "And, for distance runners, a 1-mile race can be a great tuneup before a big goal event. The 5th Avenue Mile draws a lot of crazed NYC Marathoners, as a matter of fact."
Fellow Run Smart coach Malindi Elmore agrees. A 2004 Olympic 1500-meter runner for Canada, she knows from experience how speed has spread: She has a 1500 PR of 4:02, a 15:02 for 5000 and a 33-flat best for 10K on the road.
"I think most people will find training for a mile race helps their longer races," Elmore says. "Our body doesn't always like doing the same thing and sometimes a stimulus to your training and racing will provide huge breakthroughs in other events." Elmore adds that even if you cut down your overall volume during a training spell for a 1-mile race, you won't lose out on strength. "You're still really working the legs, lungs and heart. When you return to longer and slower work you will have given yourself a real fitness boost."
So how do you do it? How do you shift your training, and your physiology, into the lactic-acid storm waiting for you in the mile? According to Rosetti, a runner who wants to spice up their road training and racing by jumping in a mile race can adequately prepare by simply including into their working program one day per week of speed work at a current mile race pace.
RELATED: The Wanamaker Mile's Glorious History
First, determine your mile race pace either with a time trial or by entering a recent 5K or 10K clocking into a pace calculator to get a projected time.
Then after a thorough warm-up, run repetition intervals at that pace, in simple workouts like 8 x 200 meters with a rest interval of 200 meters of easy jogging, or, if you're a more advanced runner, 4 x 400 meters with 400 meters of easy jogging. Be sure to run that specific pace and to allow for the recovery you need. You can also take these workouts to a modest hill and simulate the same effort to get a good dose of power training. Additionally, after tempo runs you can add some similar repetition intervals, like 100s or 200s — once again at mile race pace.
"One of the best strength and drill training sessions for runners is pure sprinting," Elmore says. But distance runners have to be careful about adding such elements of fasting running. Do this by adding striders to the end of your regular runs or in track workouts where you focus on really fast 100s.
"You become a better and smoother runner by practicing running faster than you would in a race."
Or practicing a race shorter than your goal race, as was the case for Rob Delong.
To search for a 1-mile race on either the road or the track, check with your local running clubs or surf the vast listings at www.bringbackthemile.com. If you can't find a race nearby, do a time trial on your local high school track.

Canadian teen Bouchard beats 12th-seeded Ivanovic
Jun. 27, 2013
LONDON (AP) — About 20 minutes before playing only her fourth Grand Slam match, against a woman who won a major championship and was ranked No. 1, 19-year-old Eugenie Bouchard got some news.
Instead of Wimbledon's 1,089-seat, out-of-the-way Court 12, the Canadian would be facing Ana Ivanovic at Centre Court, with room for nearly 15,000 spectators. Cause for concern? Nerves? Nah.
"I was really excited. It was kind of a big deal to me. ... It's what everyone wants to do. So, yeah, it was a great opportunity for me," the 66th-ranked Bouchard said. "I definitely was calm and felt like I could do this. It worked out."
Most certainly did. Bouchard picked up the biggest victory of her nascent career Wednesday, beating the 12th-seeded Ivanovic 6-3, 6-3 to reach the third round at the All England Club.
"It's a long way from when she was 5 years old and she started in the juniors at the local club. To me, Centre Court at Wimbledon is the temple of tennis so it was a little surreal seeing her walk out there," said Bouchard's mother, Julie. "I think she was calmer than I was. I was dying inside. I was like, 'How can she even walk out there?' But she's been planning and working toward this for 14 years. So I'm obviously very proud."
She attended her daughter's news conference, as did Bouchard's twin sister, Beatrice, and 14-year-old brother, William.
Heady stuff for Bouchard, who won the 2012 Wimbledon girls' title at the All England Club, which gave her an opportunity to set foot in the Royal Box at Centre Court. But this time she actually was on the grass.
"It was just really cool," Bouchard said, "being in front of those people."
When a reporter noted that the fans at Wimbledon tend to be more muted than at some other tennis venues, Bouchard smiled and replied: "Well, yeah. We're at Wimbledon. It's classy here."
This is her second Grand Slam tournament; she lost to Maria Sharapova in the second round at the French Open last month.
That match was in the main stadium at Roland Garros, which Bouchard said helped her deal with the unusual circumstances Wednesday. She and 2008 French Open champion Ivanovic got late notice to head to Centre Court because second-seeded Victoria Azarenka pulled out of what was supposed to the day's opening match there.
Thanks to her experience in Paris, Bouchard said, "I was like, 'I've done this before. No big deal.'"
In eight previous Wimbledon appearances, Ivanovic only once had failed to reach the third round. But Bouchard took 12 of 13 points in one stretch to claim the first set Wednesday and go up a break in the second.
"Was the first time I actually I saw her play, so it was obviously a little bit tough to get used to. She was tracking the ball really well," Ivanovic said. "Eugenie is playing really well. She's young. She has great potential."
There were some blips along the way, though, including when Ivanovic broke to pull even at 2-all.
"I stayed relaxed," Bouchard said. "I had broken her a few times, so I knew I could do it again."
Indeed, Bouchard broke right back, then again to go ahead 5-2, before failing to serve out the victory.
Using deep returns to keep Ivanovic off-balance, Bouchard ended the match by breaking serve for the fifth time.
"I believed I belonged there," Bouchard said, "and believed I could play with her."
