Ashes of London
London, September 1666. The Great Fire rages through the city, consuming everything in its path. Even the impregnable cathedral of St. Paul's is engulfed in flames and reduced to ruins.
In the chaos of the fire, James Marwood, son of a disgraced printer and a reluctant government informer, encounters a mysterious young woman, desperately seeking her father. Little does he know, the woman is Catherine Lovett, daughter of Regicide Thomas Lovett.
In the aftermath of the fire, a semi-mummified body is discovered in the ashes of St. Paul's, in a tomb that should have been empty. The man's body has been mutilated and his thumbs have been tied behind his back.
Under orders from the government, Marwood is tasked with hunting down the killer across the devastated city. Suspecting that Thomas Lovett is at the heart of the murders, Marwood sets off to track down Catherine, knowing that she will lead him to her father.
But at a time of dangerous internal dissent and the threat of foreign invasion, Marwood finds his investigation leads him into treacherous waters, and the hands of a power higher than he could have possibly imagined.

Budgeting is a factor earnest in remodeling projects of a house. This can get a little complicated when it comes to remodeling of the most important part of the house- the kitchen. The way a kitchen is constructed creates a long lasting impression for the home as a whole. Besides that is one of the busy activity areas of the house. So, one must be very careful on getting remodeled where quality is a prudent and essential factor acquiring quality inputs at lower budgets is simply a smart move. Kitchen makeovers can take you anywhere from 6-10 days. You could either hire a professional to do it from scratch or you could join in as a team in the family and allocate specific work to each team member and execute the plan successfully. It is not rocket science but making use of some smart tips that I am going to share in this article will go a long way in helping you acquire a designer kitchen style at low cost.
Step 1:
For any remodeling project if you want a complete and fast makeover, it is the colors and hues of that particular living space that you need to change. A drastic change in color gives an immediate makeover to your kitchen. Choose your color wisely such that it compliments certain focal points in your kitchen and also suits you taste.
Painting the walls and maybe even the floor can bring about eons of charm and a brand new look to the kitchen. You could either install readymade vinyl colored floors or try and get a neutral color and scrub the wax finish off it and paint it with a color of your choice. Brighten up the room with shades of red, if you love the nature so much splash the kitchen space with a blend of soft blue and green hues or choose yellow as the color that emits positive energy or choose a subtle shade of pink to bring the feminine element to the kitchen space.
Step 2:
Use a wall paper with designs of your choice to cover certain parts of the walls as per your requirements.
You can also opt to use a stainless steel contact paper to cover parts of your old kitchen appliances to give it a polished, new and contemporary look.
Step 3:
Use of backsplashes is also encouraged that have washable oil paints, decorated plastic sheets or anything that can efficiently cover up the areas prone to constant staining.
Step 4:
You can either replace the doors of the cabinets and windows of your kitchen or just reface it with new laminates.
Step 5:
Change the knobs of the doors and cabinets with styles that look grand but cost less like brushed nickel knobs and handles.
Step 6:
Install a new sink and a new faucet or just have the existing ones polished to give a brand new shine.
There are many ways in which you can practice your creativity into your kitchen remodeling project and still stay under a considerably low budget. So go ahead and plan the perfect kitchen remodeling project that does not burn a hole in your pocket.

Interestingly, doctors were surprised to find that despite being shot at from close range, the injured jawan did not have any bullet wound on his body. As per reports, Singh appears to have been hit by a blunt object which broke his jaw.
Also, weapons of both the deceased as well as his injured colleague have been missing, adding to the suspicion of it being a terror attack.
The police are probing the incident and while they have not eliminated the terror angle, they have also not ruled out the possibility of it being an incident of fratricide killing and the two shooting at each other as a result of a heated argument.
Also, if it was a terror attack, the response of the SSB personnel will be investigated as reportedly there was no cross-firing with only one bullet being fired at the place of incident. But if the terror angle is proven, it will be second major attack on the much guarded Srinagar-Jammu national highway.

Exilis treats sagging or loose skin including loose skin experienced post pregnancy. This non-surgical alternative to liposuction and tummy tuck is available at Dermedica, where we provide clients in Perth, Claremont, Karrinyup, Scarborough and surrounding areas with effective skin tightening treatments.
Quick facts: Exilis Elite for body skin tightening treatments
Also known as: radio frequency skin tightening, themage alternative, ultherapy alternative
Treatment for: loose skin or saggy skin for tummy/ abdomen, arms, thighs, knees, post pregnancy tummy
If you have dieted and exercised and have taken care of your body but you still can't reduce unwanted body fat and loose skin, at Dermedica we have a solution to treat both unwanted fat and loose skin. Discover the benefits of this latest fat reduction and skin tightening treatment-Exilis Elite.
Case study: Exilis Elite treatment to tighten loose tummy skin
This lady is very slim and works out regularly. However she is not able to tighten her loose abdominal skin with exercise. Dr Teh used Exilis Elite's patented technology and advanced technique to lift/tighten her skin. She has now regained her confidence. She feels more comfortable wearing her gym clothes and tight fitting outfits.
Individual results vary.
Case study: Exilis Elite treatment for loose skin on abdomen
Case study: Exilis Elite treatment for outer thighs/saddle bags
Case study: Exilis Elite treatment for Bra fat
Case study: Exilis Elite treatment for loose skin on arms/ bat wings
What is Exilis? What's the difference between Exilis and Exilis Elite?
Dermedica was one of the first few clinics in Perth to offer Exilis Elite, which has now become the skin tightening treatment of choice at Dermedica.
There are 2 versions of Exilis. The table top Exilis protege and the more potent Exilis Elite. At Dermedica we offer the latest Exilis Elite technology for skin tightening and fat reduction. Only the Exilis Elite uses a combination of monopolar radio frequency (RF) energy and ultrasound simultaneously to give the dual effect of fat reduction and skin tightening
Why is Exilis Elite a treatment of choice for treating loose skin on the tummy, arms and thighs?
Only the Exilis Elite has a body handpiece tip has a built-in thermometer to minimised risk of overheating. Due to the precise and controlled 'layered advanced cooling', it allows a better heat and depth of penetration at which the energy is delivered. This allows the treatment to be more comfortable for the patient and better result.
How does Exilis work?
The Exilis computer-controlled device is guided over the treatment area. You will feel a warm sensation as the energy is delivered to the layers of skin.
For fat reduction, a precise controlled energy of radiofrequency, ultrasound and cooling targets deep thermal heating, initiating metabolic activity in local fat tissue and the lipolysis process is accelerated. Fat cell volume decreases and the fat layer is reduced.
For skin tightening, controlled heating is engaged to redefine loose skin and smooth wrinkles. This causes the collagen supporting tissue to remodel, thereby stimulating and strengthening the collagen network to improve skin laxity and texture.
How many Exilis treatments will I need?
Generally, four to six sessions (one session every one to two weeks) is recommended*. To determine a more definitive number of treatments an assessment from Dr Teh is required.
How much does Exilis treatment cost?
Exilis can be a more affordable treatment compare to a tummy tuck or surgery. However, it will not be able to give you the same result as a tummy tuck or surgical result. It is a great non-surgical alternative for people who do not want to undergo surgery. The cost of each treatment depends on your expectation, the degree of laxity and the size of the area. Treatment starts from $350 in a treatment package.
What does the Exilis treatment feels like? Is there any pain?
You will feel a tolerable heat sensation during the treatment. The treatment is not painful.
How long do the Exilis results last?
For skin tightening, once you achieve the desired result you may need once or twice-yearly maintenance as your skin starts to lose it collagen and elastin over time*. The lasting effects of Exilis depends on the quality of your skin. The result for fat reduction is long lasting as long as you maintain your weight and muscle mass.
What are the side effects of Exilis treatment?
There have been no significant side effects reported with Exilis treatment. Potential side effects are some redness, tenderness and potentially risk of a blister which subsides shortly after the treatment*.
Do I need to take any time off work after Exilis?
There is no downtime – you can head back to work, social activities, and everyday life on the same day!
What does my skin looks like after the Exilis treatment?
The treated area will look pink that may last for about 1-2 hours*.
Who is a candidate for Exilis?
For skin tightening, Exilis is a treatment best suited for anyone who has mild to moderate loose skin post pregnancy, weight lost, saggy arms and thighs. For fat reduction, this is the treatment for anyone close to their ideal weight with stubborn flabby areas such as the tummy, thighs and arms.
Who is NOT a suitable candidate for Exilis?
It is recommended that Exilis is performed on people of good general health. Exilis is not suitable for people who are overweight.
Exilis is not suitable for severe skin laxity in which case cosmetic surgery like tummy tuck or a facelift is more appropriate.
The Exilis treatment is not suitable for pregnant/lactating women, people with an implanted pacemaker or internal defibrillator or those with metal implants in the treatment area.
Why choose Dermedica for Exilis skin tightening?
Experience counts! Choose a doctor that has more than 10 years' experience using skin tightening technologies.
Result of the Exilis Elite treatment is very much operator dependent hence a combination of experience, training and technique will reflect on the outcome and the satisfaction you receive. Dr Joanna Teh has over 10 years' experience in using radiofrequency technology. Thermage was the first radiofrequency Dr Teh used for skin tightening. Over the years she has used various technologies (Ultherapy, Thermage, Sublime) and have gained valuable experience and technique to enhance the skin tightening effect. She understands how to select the right candidate for the Exilis treatment and uses the correct advanced technique to give you a natural younger looking result. So before you have your Exilis Elite treatment make an appointment with Dr Joanna Teh to discuss honestly about her experience with other technologies and result with Exilis.
Let us use our expertise in using radiofrequency technology to achieve the best possible outcome for you.

Biotechnology uses the DNA of living organisms to bioengineer new products artificially. Depending on the tools and applications, it often overlaps with the related fields of biomedicine, pharmacology, and genetic engineering. Modern biotech methods are used to manufacture existing medicines more easily, in order to treat human diseases. Further, biotechnology has enabled emerging techniques like gene therapy. Stem cell research offers new hope in the areas of cancer treatment as well as life extension. The regulation of genetic engineering aims to assess and manage the risks of developing genetically modified organisms (GMO), including commercial food crops and fish. Although mired in ethical debate, the fast-growing field of biotech offers many employment opportunities.
At the smallest scale, mechanical engineering becomes nanotechnology, one goal of which is to build molecules and materials via microsynthesis. Current areas of mechanical engineering research in nanotechnology include nanofilters, nanofilms, and nanostructures such as microtubules. Self-assembly of these structures may lead to new breakthroughs in artificial tissue generation. Micron-scale mechanical components such as springs, gears, and heat-transfer devices are fabricated from a variety of substrate materials such as silicon, glass and polymers like SU8. Biomechanics applies traditional engineering methodology to the analysis of biological systems. By copying the efficiency of nature, the study of biomechanics aids in creating prosthetic limbs and artificial organs for medical application.

Humanoid Robot Design
Sensors can be classified according to the physical process with which they work or according to the type of measurement information that they give as output. Vision refers to processing data from any modality which uses the electromagnetic spectrum to produce an image. In humanoid robots it is used to recognize objects and determine their properties. Sound sensors allow humanoid robots to hear speech and environmental sounds, and perform as the ears of the human being. Microphones are usually used for this task.

Engineering Job ListingsThe Fundamentals of Engineering exam should be taken immediately after earning a bachelors degree from an ABET-accredited program. Engineers who pass this exam are called engineers in training (EIT), or engineer interns. After meeting work experience requirements, engineer interns can attempt a second certifying exam, called the Principles and Practice of Engineering Exam. Thereafter, acquisition of a professional engineering license enables management of junior engineers, the ability to sign off on engineering projects, and provide services directly to the public. Wages vary by employer and location. Aside from salary, most engineering jobs include excellent benefits, as well as retirement plans.

from Jeremy
Why are we in such a hurry?
Actually, Jan and Joshua don't seem to be in much of a hurry at all, unless school drop-off is looming and teeth are not yet brushed. I on the other hand, feel myself racing against time. This sense of scarce time stems from a feeling that I have so many ideas and dreams, but know that my time in this body is limited. Therefore, I strive to get these things done before I can no longer do them, either physically, mentally, or simply existentially.
How can, or have, I made myself comfy with this strong sense of mortality? Simple, I use it to drive myself forward while understanding that not everyone shares it with me. I have a death countdown clock on my phone that tells me today I have 16,423 days left to live, based on actuarial tables of someone with my lifestyle. That may sound like a lot, but in reality, I've already lived almost that much. That means, I've only got left relatively what I've already spent. My life is half full, or half empty depending on how you look at it. We talked about this briefily in our very first post.
I look at it as all full already. What I mean by that is that I'm already done. I've done a lot in my life, and I am satisfied with where I am today. If I died today I would miss a lot of great stuff, but I would be Comfy knowing that I did what I could do with the time I had. Given that satisfaction, though, I feel like I can contribute more, and there is more I want to do. So, every day, I am blessed with another opportunity to contribute more. Every day I wake up is another gift to me, and hopefully the world to which I offer something.
By looking at my countdown clock in this way, I am not ticking off the days till I die in some morbid death watch, but using the limited time to inspire the greatest efficiency of time and production that I can experience.
Am I alone in this way of seeing things? I am not sure. Yet, what I see tells me that I am at least in a minority.
Often what I see around me is people rushing to one obligation or another; whether it be work, school, social activity, or entertainment. Everyone seems in a rush to get somewhere. We see this manifested on the road when we're cut off by others. We see this on public transit when people rush in and out of the open doors, or line up to enter the train or bus by shuffling to see who can be first on or off. We see this in the existence of rush hour for people to get to and from work.
So much of so many lives is spent rushing. Are we rushing toward achievement? Are we rushing toward Comfy? Or, are we rushing to the next thing, whatever it may be, in order to be there? Maybe, even, some of us are rushing toward that next thing because it is not this moment, in which we may feel uncomfortable or unaccomplished.
I imagine that there are as many reasons people rush as there are people who rush. Yet, do any of them bring these people a sense of Comfy? Maybe. If we ask ourselves:
1. What am I accomplishing with this?
2. Where am I going?
3. Do I really want to be there?
4. Is this the best use of my time on this planet?
5. Am I helping anyone in this process? (Along with the corollary: Am I hurting anyone in this process?)
(We've created a handout that goes into more detail on this set of questions. Sign up on our e-mail list to gain access to it, and all other handouts we've created.)
I have a story of a time when I was younger and had to confront this myself. At the age of 25 I was a young up-and-coming leader. I had just acquired a pretty prestigious place in an organization and was slated to rise fast into leadership positions because of it. Yet, I hated the job. I often found myself rushing to work every morning, not because I was late, but because that is how the commute on public transit went. I knew to walk on the left on the escalators, and proceed briskly to my office building where I would take my seat and get right to work despite the fact that I did not want to be there. Every morning I did this, often practically flying through the fare card machines on the Washington Metro system.
On one morning, as I was hurtling through the crowded metro station, I found myself standing behind a boy of about 10 years of age who was struggling to figure out how to use the fare card machine. He had a card, but could not figure out where it should go in order to let him out of the station. I was in a hurry to get to a job I hated, so I took the boys fare card and put it in the machine for him while urging him forward.
The boy moved through the machine, but was timid, and quite overwhelmed by the multitude of people, one of whom was propelling him beyond his expected speed and comfy level given the circumstance. I rushed off, only then thinking about what I had done. I had been in such a hurry that I did not take this boys perspective and situation into consideration in my actions. I had scared him. And why? So I could achieve something that was meaningless for me, for my life, and potentially for the world. I had created a net negative in my hurry for nothing.
The boys mom was behind me. I could overhear her tell the boy "Never let anyone push you again." I looked back, turned to the boy, and said "I am sorry. I had no right to do that to you." The mom just glared at me. The boy was too dazed and confused to really take it in.
I quite that job shortly thereafter.
Just this past weekend I had a very similar experience. Jan had gone to the grocery store, leaving Joshua and I in charge of doing laundry. We set the timer on the kitchen clock, and were playing in the living room between cycles. As the timer was counting down, I was on edge. How would I get Joshua to stop playing to come with me to the laundry room? When the buzzer went off Joshua wanted to continue playing. I offered to go alone, but he did not want that. Therefore, I told him he had to stop playing and come with me. He did not want that either. I started getting frustrated, I had to get the laundry out before someone else claimed the dryer. I had to be courteous to other people in the building who may want to use the washer. I had to meet an arbitrary goal, and I was pushing Joshua to meet it. I cajoled him, then I started getting angry when he wasn't coming along. Finally, we worked out that he could bring his large dump truck and load the dryer with it. That worked, he was out the door. We had a fun time loading the dryers with his scooper truck, and after we got back into the apartment I sat down with him to apologize. I realized I was pursuing a meaningless goal at his expense, forcing him forward against his will. He told me that my way of doing it had made him sad. I said I would not do that again. We enjoyed playing for the rest of the morning.
How many times in a day do we hurry toward something that does not matter while not taking into consideration what we are doing to others in the process? How much of our lives are taken up by things that make no difference, yet we're in a hurry to get them done? How much of our future do we look toward, thinking that if I can only get to that place I'll be all set, not realizing that the only thing we have in the whole universe is the moment in which we currently exist?
The past is gone. The future may or may not ever occur. Yet, this moment in time, this breath we are taking, this is where we exist in this world. Why would we want to rush it? Why would we want it to be over? It's all we have. Enjoy your moment. Use your moment to achieve something of value to you, and the world. Be Comfy with yourself in your moment, knowing that you can choose to experience this moment in any way you want.
When you find yourself rushing your moment, or someone else sharing it with you, pause to take stock of what you're doing and why. Is it worth it? Chances are you'll find that you're rushing toward the meaningless and injuring others along the way.
Choose to have a Comfy moment. And, if you get another moment after this one, you can make that same choice again. Each Comfy moment, built upon another Comfy moment, doing something you value, is a Comfy life indeed.

FEMA deadline awareness urged
News of federal disaster aid deadlines is not reaching some hurricane survivors - and is confusing to others, said concerned faith-based responders this week.
BY SUSAN KIM | BALTIMORE | January 26, 2006
My experience isn't so much that people don't hear things but they hear so many deadlines they don't know what the truth is anymore.
Amy Elder
News of federal disaster aid deadlines is not reaching some hurricane survivors - and is confusing to others, said concerned faith-based responders this week.
Two major federal aid deadlines have been set for survivors of Hurricane Katrina or Hurricane Rita.
First, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is reminding Katrina and Rita evacuees still living in hotel rooms nationwide that they must request an authorization code by Jan. 30, 2006 in order to have their hotel stay paid for beyond Feb. 7.
Second, FEMA has set a federal disaster aid deadline about six weeks after the hotel authorization code deadline. For people living in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi or Texas affected by Hurricane Katrina or Hurricane Rita, the deadline to apply for federal disaster recovery assistance is March 11. A FEMA spokesperson confirmed this deadline on Wednesday, and affirmed the date holds no matter where the hurricane survivor now resides.
FEMA has received more than 2 million applications for federal aid from people affected by Katrina or Rita.
"We believe the vast majority of individuals have registered," said David Passey, a FEMA public information officer who covers Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and New Mexico.
The hotel dwellers - already dealing with the rapidly approaching authorization code deadline - at this point may be more likely to register with FEMA than other hurricane survivors, he added. "In order to get an authorization code for a hotel, they have to register," said Passey. "Some of this population that could be eligible will benefit from the push on the hotel deadline."
After the hotel deadline passes, he added, FEMA will continue to emphasize the March 11 deadline to apply for federal disaster aid. The March 11 deadline holds for Small Business Administration (SBA) loans as well as state disaster programs, Passey pointed out. The SBA can loan money to homeowners, renters and business owners. Homeowners may borrow up to $200,000 for disaster related home repairs. Homeowners and renters may borrow up to $40,000 to replace disaster-damaged personal property, including vehicles.
In states far afield from where the hurricanes made landfall, faith-based and voluntary organizations are trying hard to clearly publicize deadlines for all types of aid.
But responders are worried about people who won't get the message, said Jim Puza, an Arizona Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster leader who also represents The Salvation Army. "Who is least likely to hear? It's the person who moved in with a relative. They've had no needs up until now. They're still a little bit in shock. They haven't done anything. Those are the people we want to reach."
People who were airlifted to Arizona are now people who tend to be well-connected with voluntary agencies, added Puza. "Every agency has driven them into the system. But for people who went off on their own with a relative - those are the people that you have to get registered."
Arizona has more than 2,000 people living in the state who were displaced by Katrina or Rita, said Judy Kioski, spokesperson for the Arizona Division of Emergency Management. She commended faith-based and voluntary groups in her state for their work in meeting the needs of survivors.
"But we worry about the people that have not reached out to voluntary agencies. It could be families that opened up their homes and hearts - and really aren't plugged into the volunteer agency system."
In Texas - where more than a half million Katrina/Rita FEMA registrants are living - responders are concerned that multiple and changing FEMA deadlines have caused confusion.
"My experience isn't so much that people don't hear things but they hear so many deadlines they don't know what the truth is anymore," said Amy Elder, executive director of Texas Interfaith Disaster Response. "It's very confusing. My take is that most people are getting the information - but it's just not meaningful anymore."
The most often-changed FEMA deadline has been past deadlines set for people to exit FEMA-funded hotel rooms. Often faith-based groups and social service providers advocated for extending these deadlines because they were concerned about the lack of housing and services for hurricane survivors leaving hotels.
The changes - however well-intentioned - have been hard on people, said Elder. "For the people in recovery, it's absolutely mind-boggling. It's stress-building and it's terrible."
What's the solution? Direct person-to-person communication can help hurricane survivors understand the deadlines, suggested Elder. "We're emphasizing the Adopt-a-Family program. It's the personal contact that will be the most significant part of taking people toward self-sufficiency."
Ironically, as hotel and aid deadlines are publicized more and more, the hurricane survivors themselves seem to sink into invisibility, said Elder. "When you walk down the street, evacuees are invisible," she said, "so people don't think we have a problem."
Beyond what can often seem like a bureaucratic jungle, she urged a focus that's back on people: "The ultimate solution for recovery is having people meeting people," she said.

|Thank you 2011! Hello 2012!
Year 2011 has been so memorable to me. It's when I passed my thesis defense, graduated on time, having a job, started my photography career and even my heartbroken story has been told. My love story hasn't been written for sure. Haha! But seriously it's the best year for me! Why do say I so? It's simple, I'm happy. I maybe left heartbroken but someone just show me the real happiness is all about. You probably are wondering who the person is. Everything he did was just blessings for me and I am very thankful for having him. I really don't know how I would pay for all of his efforts that he shouldn't done for such person like me or should I say that I am not worth of his efforts at all. No one does it before, except him. And hey, we're only just friends. No special meaning at all. Hahah! Anyway, thank you! :)
For this year 2012, I really don't want to hope for something but as long as I can bare every challenge that I may encounter, I'm good to face everything! One thing for sure is this Architectural Board Exam! Hahah! I still don't know when to take the board but if God permits me, it'll happen. So cheers to this another year of blessings!
Oh! By the way, these are our humble foods that we shared during the New Year 's Eve. Indulge! :D
|Fruits will always be present to our table! ♥
|Round-shaped fruits for good luck haha! ♥
|BBQ, shanghai and more! ♥
|Pancit bihon ♥
|Ham in cold cuts ♥
Welcoming 2012 will not be great without drinking sessions with CHM friends and of course alcohols and foods. Hahah!
|Pica-pica ♥
|Lechon for long life! :))
|This one welcomed us! Cheers! :D
|There goes the others! Haha! Oh my! :))
And to you dear dragon, I RAWR YOU! ♥
Happy New Year everyone! Cheers! Godbless us all! :D

Church Belles
'Church Belles' was started three years ago, in 2011 to keep in touch, socially, with those mums who have a connection with the church, usually through First Sunday Service or other children's activities. We meet in St. Nicholas' church hall for an evening every other month on the 3rd Tuesday from 7.30p.m. and have wine and nibbles, sometimes a speaker or demonstrator – like 'Girlie Gardening', making cup cakes, jewellery making or 'Back health and massage', occasionally a meal out or a bring and share in-house. There are 45 mums on the books and most meetings have about 20-25 people attending. New members very welcome. £1.50 per session (except if demonstrators provide materials for us to join in) – details and dates available in the Diary section of the website.

What is the Vulnerability Equities Process?
The Vulnerability Equities Process or VEP was designed by the Obama administration in an effort to ensure that the government react appropriately if and when it discovers vulnerabilities in the products made by technology manufacturers. While the guidelines were an attempt to find an ideal compromise among contradictory values, many technology, industry and security experts have condemned the VEP as a failure.
Dave Aitel and Matt Tait, for example, said last week that "the US has confused a public relations strategy with a security strategy, to the detriment of the nation."
The VEP hosts a handful of major weaknesses, the first and most important of which is perhaps the fact that it's not actually a binding order. In fact, because the VEP is technically contained under the umbrella of administration policy as opposed to being a law or executive order, the next president can decide whether or not he or she even wants to continue it.
That's just fine with Aitel and Tate. According to them, the next administration should just devise a completely new strategy, preferably one that's actually effective.
So what is the VEP? Briefly, the Obama administration hashed out and later revised the VEP as an internal framework for ascertaining whether the US government should publicly disclose discoveries it might make regarding hardware and software vulnerabilities in tech products. These discoveries could be discovered independently by government agencies or by third-party contractors. How exactly the government determines the applicability of situations that merit disclosing or covering up vulnerabilities remains classified. However, intelligence and defense agencies seem to do work where issues regarding discovery and disclosure would be most relevant.
Given the basis of US intelligence, the VEP would provide a fundamentally flawed and confusing framework for deciding whether or not to inform a company of its products' vulnerabilities. Given intelligence equities, clearly the most advantageous situation is one in which the government develops, stockpiles, and utilizes vulnerabilities for as long as they can get away with it, disclosing vulnerabilities as little as possible.
This agenda clearly butts heads with that which would form given an operational standpoint. It takes at least two years to make full use of and integrate a discovered vulnerability; if an intelligence officer is given the task of managing an offensive security process, the VEP requires that inexpert intergovernmental oversight be maintained over these actions. That means that certain bugs are going to be doomed to eventual public exposure, regardless of strategic management by whatever experts are involved.
Whether the government published the VEP in an effort to ultimately make the vulnerabilities process transparent is rather unlikely. As prominent tech blogger Michael Daniel noted about Heartbleed, "this case has re-ignited debate about whether the federal government should ever withhold knowledge of a computer vulnerability from the public."
The argument will likely be hashed out yet again as a result of the recent NSA hack and the consequential leak of important and highly confidential hacking tools created by the US government. Now that these powerful methods will be made available to malevolent hackers through a black market auction, a case can be made that the government should inform manufacturers as opposed to documenting and exploiting vulnerabilities.
Fledgling Tech Companies Prepare for Change
In terms of young tech startups enjoying almost immediate, enormous, and global success, you can't find a much better example than Slack. Only two years old, Slack has already secured for itself a mind-boggling $2.8 billion dollar valuation, hundreds of thousands of users, and a break-neck growth rate that is extremely competitive by even Silicon Valley standards.
Slack recently raised $160 million as a result of its $2.8 billion valuation in April. It's founder, Stewart Butterfield, said that he did so not because the company actually needed the money, but purely because it was possible.
"This is the best time to raise money ever," he told the New York Times. "It might be the best time for any kind of business in any industry to raise money for all of history, like since the time of the ancient Egyptians."
This quote is not necessarily an indicator that the young startup founder expects long term prosperity in a gravy-train market. Butterfield may be expressing a "make hay while the sun shines" type philosophy that if anything, indicates an understanding that more difficult times may be ahead.
He and many other successful tech company founders are likely making an intelligent decision to raise as much money as possible now. According to many analysts, they may be riding the inflation of a tech bubble for all its worth and collecting as much "bubble insurance" as possible before that bubble implodes and times get a little tougher for venture capitalists and the private tech companies that they've invested in.
"The advice you always get from more seasoned entrepreneurs is to take the hors d'oeuvres when they're passed," explained Marco Zappacosta, CEO of Thumbtack. In other words, raise money when you can, because if you wait until you need it, it might not be out there waiting for you to grab it. Thumbtack is a local services platform that managed to raise $100 billion from Google Capital and other investors in August of 2014.
Whether this economic downturn is worth preparing for is becoming an increasingly irrelevant question; people are actively waiting for the bubble to burst, and mitigating the potential results before they're a reality is one of the most effective ways to avoid total failure when disaster hits.
That said, riding out a couple years' worth of market crash with stored money isn't without its risks. "You'll have to make the numbers to justify your valuation at some point, so you're raising the hurdle on yourself."
The paradox is that the ability of even the most successful tech moguls like Facebook to make those numbers has become increasingly in dispute, and that's the reason people are suspicious of there being a bubble in the first place. AirBnb was valued at 50x its actual profits, and Uber was valued at 100x. Investors have backed up these valuations with the logic that, for startups that show promise, there's no good reason to cap their potential.
"All of the growth in venture capital has been in the seed market," explained Scott Kupor, a managing partner at Andreessen Horowitz. Cloud computing and other innovations have made starting up a tech company cheaper than ever, which means more seed companies hit the market ever year. That said, cheaper to start doesn't mean cheaper to bring into fruition, and at some point, that truth will be written in red dollar signs.
Intro to Motherboards
You've likely heard of a motherboard and know that it serves some kind of purpose in terms of allowing your PC to work. If you'd like to know a little more about this fundamental computer component, read on.
A motherboard is the main printed circuit board (PCB) of any electronic computing apparatus; it is upon your computer's motherboard that its other components are either directly installed or connected secondarily. Motherboards are also known as mainboards, system boards, baseboards, planar boards, and logic boards.
Your computer's CPU or central processing unit (the brain of your computer) is installed directly onto your motherboard. Also posited on the motherboard are its various types of data storage, from RAM or random-access memory for temporary information storage (including all of its various caches), to ROM or read-only memory for permanent data that your computer needs to function. Upon inspection of the motherboard you're likely to find important computing sub-systems like the central processor, the chipset's input/output and memory controllers, interface connectors, and many, many more components that make your computer your computer.
Motherboards earned their name because they are, in a sense, the "mother" of all components; they beget peripherals, interface cards, and even something called daughtercards, which include sound cards, video cards, network cards, hard drives, TV tuner cards, and cards providing extra USB or FireWire slots.
A system that might be indirectly attached to your computer's motherboard is the sound card. Whether the sound card is directly installed on your device varies from machine to machine; it can be installed directly or it can be connected through an expansion slot.
Motherboards usually require some kind of cooling system in order to function correctly in the long term; some are cooled using heat sinks mounted on larger chips like the Northbridge. Many devices use fans as well, which tend to be mounted on heat sinks. Keeping motherboards cool has become an increasingly important and difficult task as time goes on and computer clock speeds and power consumption rise. If a motherboard is insufficiently cooled, it can cause damage to its internal components and lead to a devastating computer crash.
Motherboards vary about as much as computers, and their variance in size and form is known as a computer's form factor. Form factors can be specific to individual computers, but the motherboards utilized by IBM-compatible systems are designed specifically so that they can fit various case sizes and enable some flexibility. In order for a computer to function, its case's motherboard and PSU form factor must be compatible.
Laptop computers tend to use smaller, more integrated and specialized motherboards that enable excellent processing from miniature computers, but also can cause difficulty with repairs down the line. The failure of one laptop component may cause an entire motherboard to need to be replaced, and laptop motherboards tend to be significantly more expensive than desktop motherboards.
So obviously there's a reason that motherboards are often called the "central nervous system" of computers; they bring together all the other components to make computers able to function.
When the Internet Acts as Judge and Jury
The Trump campaign made headlines today as usual, though this time around the case was slightly more unique and potentially much more appalling than the standard coverage. Let me save you the effort of Googling it:
Today it was released that Corey Lewandowski, Trump's camptn rmanager, has been charged with misdemeanor battery after allegedly grabbing former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields following a Trump event in Jupiter, Florida early this month.
The incident has been a highly Twitter-ized he-said-she-said battle ever since the incident allegedly occurred. Fields isn't the only witness to the potential violence; Washington Post reporter Ben Teriss claims he witnessed Lewandowski's violent act against Fields.
Jupiter police have stated that their arrest report was not hinged on the two's testimonies alone but also on surveillance footage that eventually surfaced and has been also posted on the internet. The footage seems to support Field's story of Lewandowski grabbing "Field's left arm with his right hand, causing her to turn and step back." This sealed the deal with the police, who then moved forward to press charges.
Or course, the Trump campaign and its supporters have yet to be convinced. That's not too shocking for anyone who has kept an eye on Trump's campaign, as no amount of fact-checking or evidence-finding seems to throw his supports off track. Their camp has even set in motion a new hashtag train, "#IStandWithCorey.
The Trump campaign recently released a statement reading, "Mr. Lewandowski is absolutely innocent of this charge. He will enter a plea of not guilty and looks forward to his day in court."
Of course, Trump isn't the only candidate under Twitter fire for dirty campaign tricks. Remember right around the South Carolina democratic primary when the hashtag #WhichHillary started trending, eliciting more than 88,000 weets by 1pm ET? The Twitter had surfaced multiple times on social media as a way of raising awareness of when Hillary Clinton had "flip-flopped" on issues that are currently acting as her selling points in the primaries.
#WhichHillary was all over the internet after Clinton became involved in an altercation with Black Lives Matter activist Ashley Williams at a private fundraiser in South Carolina the Wednesday before the primary. Clinton did not address the activist's sign, which sported a quote from Hillary Clinton during her husband's presidential time in which she describes gang members as "super-predators" and said something along the lines of that they need to be "brought to heel."
The hashtag is now used to bring to light many of Hillary Clinton's political inconsistencies, from her stance on gay marriage to mass incarceration. It goes to show how much more power internet users have to incriminate people than the standard politically active person had, say, twenty years ago. Physical protests remain powerful, but online protests and trending hashtags are now worthy of campaigner's attention and anxiety. Just how much power they hold remains to be determined, but I'm sure in a few years we'll have data to tell us exactly that.
In this particular case, and despite the hashtag, Clinton led Sanders in South Carolina by a fairly large margin.
Google Plays Part in Stopping Zika
There's a new virus on the loose, and it has nothing to do with hacking.
Last week, Google announced its contribution of US $1 million to the UN Children's Fund in an effort to support the global fight against the mosquito-borne Zika virus.
Additionally, a team of Google engineers has volunteered to lend their talents to UNICEF; they've signed up to analyze data and better understand the viral infection's path.
Google has also promised to match all employee donations with the intention of donating an additional $500,000 to UNICEF and the Pan American Health Organization.
According to Google, the recent Zika virus outbreaks caused a 3,000% increase in worldwide internet search inquiries since last November. By February, the World Health Organization saw fit to declare a public health emergency regarding the virus.
Although the virus continues to be only partially understood, there are a number of alarming correlations with the virus and other major diseases. Microcephaly and a number of other birth defects have made the list, causing public health officials to recommend that women in areas near Zika outbreaks avoid becoming pregnant.
The spread of the virus is further obfuscated by the fact that four out of five people who contract the virus show no symptom. That and the widespread population of the virus's primary transmitter, the Aedes mosquito, have caused the eradication of the disease to prove challenging.
That's why Google saw fit to help; UNICEF is now working with the additional assistance of Google engineers and data scientists to create an open source information platform that will enable UNICEF and its partners to better target and isolate Zika response efforts.
"This open source platform will be able to process information like mobility patterns and weather data to build risk maps. We plan to prototype this tool in the Zika response but expand it for use globally," stated Chris Fabian. colead of UNICEF's innovation unit.
The open source data platform will be developed by Google software engineers John Li and Zora Tung as well as UNICEF research scientist Manual Garcia Herranz and UX designer Tanya Bhandari. The platform will be built to process data from different sources like weather and travel patterns and to visualize potential outbreaks.
At the end of the day, the platform's main objective will be to identify the risk of Zika transmission for different regions and help UNICEF, governments and nongovernmental organizations to find the best possible way to focus their time and resources.
"Financial contributions and donations are always beneficial, but it has hard to say whether or not tracking the virus itself will have significant contributions," stated Sarah Lisovich, content strategist at CIA Medical.
"The symptoms are similar tot hose of other common healthcare conditions," she continued. "Google is a leader in terms of research tools and putting forth tools to help understand the outbreak and bring more awareness and comprehension," she concluded.
This isn't the first time that big data analytics ave been used for the purposes of tracking and stopping an outbreak; analytics have been used to track malaria, dengue fever, and the West Nile virus for years. They enable researches to quickly turn of knowledge from billions of data points and supply the best input for predicting where the disease will show up next.
4 Ways to Hack a Facebook Account
It's not nearly as hard as it should be… you definitely don't have to be a professional hacker to pull it off. Here's 4 ways you can hack into someone else's Facebook account without doing anything too strenuous or unimaginable.
The easiest way to "hack" into someone's Facebook is more a social engineering feat than one of computer genius. Just figure out someone's Facebook email login, then go to the Facebook login page and click "Forgotten your password?". Type in the victim's email and if their account comes up, click "This is my account."
Facebook will ask if you'd like to reset the password using the victim's emails, which obviously won't help you an just click "No longer have access to these? It will ask How can we reach you? and you can type in an email that you have that also isn't linked to any other Facebook account. Then it will ask you a security question. If you're close friends with the person, you likely know the answer. If you're not, make an educated guess and in 24 hours you can login to their account. if you can't figure out the question, click "Recover your account with help from friends" and click three friends that are in cahoots and can give you the password or make three fake Facebook accounts and get the person to add you before any of this stuff happens. Then you're in.
Another option? Use a keylogger, or a program that can record each stroke own the keyboard that a user makes without their knowledge. The software has to be downloaded manually on the victim's computer and will automatically start capturing keystrokes as soon as the computer is turned on and remain undetected in the background. The software can then be programmed to send you a summary of all the keystrokes via email. CNET provides Free Keylogger.
If you're afraid you might be susceptible to key logger, use fireball, install a password manager, update you software and change your passwords every so often.
Then there's the option of phishing. It's not for beginners because you have to design a fake Facebook login page, and if the victim logs in, the information will be sent to you instead of Facebook's server. You'd also need a web hosting account. There are guides on how to clone a website that you can use, and detailed instructions you can follow, if you really want to do it.
If you don't want to be susceptible to this trick, be sure not to click on links provided through weird emails. Also check the URL before you click on it using CheckShortUrl or unshort.me. Antivirus and web security software is also helpful here.
The final method? Steal the cookies that allow a website to store information on a user's hard drive and retrieve it later. You can access your victim's account by cloning those cookies and tricking Facebook into thinking the hacker's browser is already authenticated. Fire sheep collects cookies and stores them in a tab on the side of the browser so you can get in.
Brendan Eich Takes on Ads
His first browser was Mozilla Firefox, but he stepped down from his position as the CEO of Mozilla in 2014 amid loud criticisms of his donations to same-sex marriage ban initiatives in California. Now he's working on his next browser project: Brave.
Brave is a startup dedicated to developing a browser that changes how internet ads are published and paid for. The browser would block advertisements and attempts to track user data, but replace those advertisements with ads that are less intrusive and use less of a device's computing resources to run. Advertising revenue will go to site owners and users themselves; publishers would be getting 55 percent of the revenue generated by the ad, which trumps the percentage they get from more established advertising networks. The company advertising would then pay its own advertising network partners 15 percent and keep 15 percent for itself. The final 15 percent would flow back into the browser users' pockets, though I don't really get how. Users could opt out of ads altogether by donating to their favorite websites.
The idea behind Brave is to give more power to web users, who are just beginning to be able to make real decisions about their surfing experience based on the browser they choose. If Brave is a success, it will be the first browser to show so much respect for an internet user's privacy. For now, every time you load a page you're opting into whatever policies an ad network has in place. "…so we invert this power structure and have the browser be an important part of the system instead of this passive window," explained Eich.
That said, Eich isn't out to eliminate internet advertising by any means. He understands that the internet cannot function without its main source of funding, and that ad-blocking software could create major funding issues for a lot of websites.
"Most people aren't ready to pay for their content," Eich claimed. "Some aren't well off enough to pay for subscriptions, some don't know how or don't want to trust their credit card to a paywall…They like free-riding, or even starting a war."
"You may never click on an ad, but even forming an impression from a viewable ad has some small value. With enough people blocking ads, the Web's main funding model is in jeopardy."
Brave hopes to allow those who prefer to not see ads still support sites through donations, allowing for those websites losing out on advertising funding to be funded directly by their users. Everyone else can support sites by viewing ads that Eich hopes will be "more relevant, less intrusive, and not so creepy" as the status quo.
Brave claims that if it shares data it finds, it will always by anonymized and that it cannot be shared without the user opting in.
Apple CEO Stands Strong Against FEDs on Encryption
Last Sunday, Apple CEO Tim Cook took part in an interview on the CBS new program 60 Minutes in which he asserted the rights of tech companies to provide encryption services to their clients.
"There's all kinds of sensitive information on smartphones today," claimed Cook. "You should have the ability to protect it. The only way we know how to do that is to encrypt it."
Cook noted that Apple was still willing to comply with search warrants served on it by law enforcement officials.
FBI Director James B. Comey disagrees, believing encryption is only remains a legal service because of a lag between legislators and inventors: "Unfortunately, the law hasn't kept pace with technology, and this disconnect has created a significant public safety problem… We call it 'Going Dark' and what it means is this: Those charged with protecting our people aren't always able to access the evidence we need to prosecute crime and prevent terrorism, even with lawful authority."
"We have the legal authority to intercept and access communications and informant pursuant to court order, but we often lack the technical ability to do so," added Comey.
Plenty of security and tech advocates take issue with Comey's initiative to ban encryption services.
"A proposal to protect our security by weakening our security is going in the wrong direction," asserted executive director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation Cindy Cohn.
"If the government were to suggest that no one put locks on their doors because if we were a terrorist it would be harder to get into our house, we would think that was a bad idea… This is pretty much the digital equivalent of that."
Cohn makes an excellent point; as large scale hacks become commonplace, government agencies are finding that sometimes not even they can keep their sensitive data under wraps. If they have access to everyone's data, or make that data more accessible to everyone, terrorists won't be the only users made more vulnerable.
Berin Szoka, the president of TechFreedom, claims that this issue presents a historic crossroads in American history and the history of the internet:
"This is really a binary issue. Are you going to allow end-to-end encryption by the operating system makers or not? Once you say no, you start down this road without stopping the really smart bad guys from continuing to use encryption on their devices."
CEO of Accellion Yorgen Edholm believes the government can achieve its goals by walking a separate path: "If the government law enforcement agencies are looking for an encryption compromise, maybe they should look outside the tech sector for it… Encryption can always be broken by people who have supercomputers- the government has more supercomputers than anyone else. So the government has the resources to decrypt anything. It's just that those resources have to be made available to local law enforcement… That compromise wouldn't make it easier for the bad guys to get into my privacy just because the government wants to have the computer equivalent of a wiretap."
UK Police Crack Down on Young Cybercriminals
The UK has made headlines for turning the heat up on young hackers.
"Over the past few years, the NCA [National Crime Agency] has seen the people engaging in cybercrime becoming younger and younger," Richard Jones explained. Jones is the current head of the Prevent team at the NCA's Cyber Crime Unit.
Jones explained that a recent online attack tool known as Lizard Stresser was actually created by 7 people under the age of 18.
The NCA's clamping down on teenage offenders come as part of the Cyber Choices campaign, which was in turn prompted by the fact that an NCA study revealed the average age of people involved in its investigations was only 17 years of age. The study also found that very few teenagers in the UK actually understood what constituted a cybercrime and what the legal consequences were.
Cybercrimes are common among young hackers who don't actually want to steal anything or do any horribly catastrophic harm; often viruses are created solely to see how far they spread so that the hackers behind them can reap the bragging rights. Unfortunately, in this age of more serious hacking and cyberterrorism, many governments have no sense of humor for this new form of teenage pranking.
The National Crime Agency's Cyber Crime Unit was astounded after uncovering certain information during Operation Dermic in 2014. The operation was pitted against users of a remote-access Trojan (known as a Rat) called Blackshades. After an in-depth investigation of the origin of the Blackshades Trojan, a total of 17 arrests were made. During a follow-up, the National Crime Agency's Cyber Crime Unit underwent over 80 "cease and desist" visits to people that they had found guilty of purchasing the Blackshades Trojan. Over 500 emails and letters were additionally sent out to people found responsible for purchasing the cybercrime kit that allows for the generation of the Blakshades remote-access Trojan. To the National Crime Agency's Cyber Crime Unit's surprise, a large portion of the people contacted due to buying or somehow being involved with the kit were under the age of 20 and still living at home with their parents. In fact, the youngest Blackshades buyer was just 12 years old.
The issue highlights the fact that programmers and hackers are becoming younger and younger, so ill-conceived cybercrimes are being enacted by younger and younger cybercriminals, often in a more experimental than malicious mindset. Early access to computers and the internet will yield an unprecedented generation of computer users, a generation that governments are struggling to educate in terms of the law and the consequences for breaking it. At the same time, laws regarding cybercrime are still forming and lawmakers are attempting to adapt to the constant need for new legislation in a world they weren't trained to oversee.
What's A Circuit Again?
Don't be ashamed; despite the fact that your life totally relies on your access to a myriad of objects that utilize circuits to manipulate electricity for results that are now taken totally for granted, you are not alone in not understanding even the basics of electrical engineering; weirdly enough, most people don't, and I guess it's because they can get by just fine without that knowledge. However, if a meteor hits the Earth and corrupts its atmosphere in such a way that only those with a rare and previously unnoted genetic mutation can breathe the new air and you have that mutation, you're likely going to have to contribute to building society up again to become what it once was which means you should know the basics of mechanical engineering. Or at least someone should. Here's a quick bit about how circuits work:
Circuits use energy made by electric currents. They are composed of closed paths or loops around which that electric current can flow. Conductive materials like copper metal allow for electricity to flow freely through them. Insulators that don't allow electricity to easily pass through them, like rubber or plastic, are called insulators.
Why is copper a conductor and plastic an insulator? It all has to do with the chemical structures of the materials and the physical properties of electricity itself. A current of electricity is a steady flow of electrons, which carry electrical energy along with them when they move in the form of a small electric charge. When electrons can move through a substance easily, that substance is a conductor. Conductors tend to have chemical structures in which there are a lot of free electrons easily separated from their parent atoms, which makes electron movement and the carry of electric charge that much easier.
Insulators, on the other hand, have chemical structures in which the electrons are more tightly bound, hampering the movement of electrons.
No matter what the material, electricity will not flow without something to push the electrons, known as the electromotive force, or EMF. A battery, for example, creates the electromotive force that makes a current of electrons flow. Electromotive force is just another word for voltage.
Given a circuit, electricity can flow in two different ways; it can have a direct current or an alternating current. Alternating currents are more powerful and generally used for larger appliances, while direct currents are used for kids toys or simple flashlights.
The ability to run electricity through a circuit opens up so many other new abilities. For example, when electricity is run through a wire, it creates a pattern of magnetism around the wire. That magnetism is utilized in electric motors, which are composed of a cylinder packed with magnets and a core made of iron wire. When electricity runs through the iron core, it becomes magnetically charged in such a way that it interacts with the magnetic cylinder by spinning. The force generated by the spinning can was clothes in a washing machine, spin a drill and drive machinery.

Calling on Julian Hunte, Azim Bassarath and Dinanath Ramnarine!. Organised labour in the Caribbean can solve all your problems re: bringing people back to the cricket grounds. Look at what we did two weeks ago outside the Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad, even as commentators in Dominica were praying for rain so that the game would last 5 days.
Thousands of workers gathered to assess the state of play against a Dookeran led team, trying to spin out the workers for five percent. Included in the team were spinners/spin doctors Abdulah, McLeod and trundler Rudy.
Cricket, by itself, could have not, of late, been able to bring 500 spectators to a game. Labour brings out thousands, with a much better rhythm section. And if the game is not entertaining, or there is a problem with team selection, there will be no protracted struggle involving individuals, representative players associations, and archaic governing bodies.
But the government seems to have chosen a wrong bowling attack So far they have only gotten the wicket of Watson Duke. This fellow, remember, in his first 'Test' was swinging his bat all over the place but in the end sold his wicket really cheaply.
Labour emptied the Oval in 1987, when racist cricketers, who flouted the ban on South African cricket, were chosen to play on a West Indian tour. CIDWIC, the Committee in Defence of West Indian Cricket, was a body organised and led by the Trinidad labour movement.
We had no representation in the Government, in Cabinet, or in partnership yet. Come to think of it, some of the present labour leaders turned ministers and senators marched with us. Now it seems that they can't get far away enough from labour. Oh how the lowly have risen! But half past six may be closer than they think and all the political viagra in world will be of little help.
So, whether it is a match or a march, call on organised labour to fill in or around the grounds. No admission fee! Dress code? You union jersey! Now you know why C.L.R. James said: 'This goes beyond the boundary"

ANNA PITINGOLO, GoPSUsports.com Student
Staff Writer
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Casey Francis has been representing Penn State for the last three years as a student athlete, a role she's adjusted to and embraced. But now as she enters her final season on the swim team, she's representing the university in a new way: as a member of the annual Homecoming court.
Francis found out she was selected to the court in the middle of practice when members of the Homecoming Royalty Committee showed up with balloons and a crown for her. Even though she saw them out of the corner of her eye, she still finished the set before jumping out of the pool to celebrate.
"I saw them cheering while I was in the middle of my set but I couldn't stop because I don't like to stop in the middle of a set," Francis said. "So I finished what I was doing and then when I touched the wall they were all cheering so I hopped out of the pool and they gave me a crown and a poster."
Being selected to the court came after a long application process. Once Francis found out she was nominated, she had to send in a formal application, which included five essays. From there, she had a 30-minute interview before finally being picked.
"I was in shock," she added. "I was really happy though and I'm really excited. It's been an awesome experience so far and I don't want it to end."
Adding homecoming engagements to an already busy schedule as a student-athlete has been crazy for Francis, but she's taking it all in stride and enjoying every moment.
"I've had to swim on my own time and luckily I've had no exams, no papers, no projects this week," Francis said. "It's definitely been really hectic but I enjoy it. I'm loving meeting all these new people outside the athletic world and I'm creating friendships that I'm sad I'm only creating my senior year."
"Representing Penn State is just awesome," Francis said. "I used to say that breaking the school record last year was my best Penn State experience and I think this might top it. This has been so much fun and we're not even halfway through the week yet."
For as much excitement as Francis has had outside of the pool this week, she has brought just as much excitement in the pool for the Nittany Lions throughout her Penn State career. In 2015-16 she broke the Penn State and McCoy Natatorium records in the 1650 freestyle with a time of 16:05.37 at the Penn State Invitational, and was named the Big Ten Co-Swimmer of the Week for her accomplishments. One of many strong weeks for the two-time NCAA qualifier.
Francis and the rest of her Nittany Lion teammates open up the regular season Thursday night, October 6th vs. Towson in McCoy Natatorium at 5:00 p.m.
Students can vote for the Homecoming King and Queen at homecoming.psu.edu.
