Like a party-crasher who shows up five minutes before everyone goes home, the late-season rush of new Asian soybean rust cases is annoying but can do little damage. Pods are made, leaves have dried down and the Southern soybean crop is nearly all in the bin.
Confirmed on Nov. 18, a Kentucky kudzu leaf is the latest rust discovery — the furthest north yet. "Lesions with pustules were found on a very small section of one leaf out of perhaps 75 collected," wrote Don Hershman, Kentucky Extension plant pathologist, on USDA's soybean rust Web site. "That kudzu patch has been killed back by the cold temperatures, so we probably no longer have soybean rust in Kentucky. So much for our 'epidemic' in 2005."
While no more problematic for their crops, the Carolinas have seen a steady stream of rust confirmations over the last few weeks.
"We picked up rust for the first time on Oct. 28," said James Dunphy, North Carolina Extension soybean specialist. "It's now in 18 counties (Greene, Pitt, Lenoir, Hoke, Carteret, Craven, Brunswick, Bladen, Columbus, Onslow, Robeson, Pender, Scotland, Duplin, Hyde, Catawaba, Edgecombe and Tyrrell). All but two of the counties are contiguous."
Twenty-two counties have been found to harbor rust in South Carolina: Barnwell, Calhoun, Horry, Pickens, Allendale, Georgetown, Orangeburg, Anderson, Oconee, Darlington, Bamberg, Saluda, Lexington, Edgefield, Newberry, Dillon, Aiken, Clarendon, Colleton, Greenville, Lee and Marlboro.
"Most of the incidences we've found are from samples Extension agents have sent in," said John Mueller, South Carolina Extension plant pathologist with Clemson University. "Most are low-level infections. We usually check 20 or 30 leaves per location and we'll find one or two with a few pustules.
"It's important we record the different counties where rust is found so growers have a feel for how widespread this has become.
"And we must consider what could have been without the drought in September. Rust could have been as widespread earlier and been very damaging. It's a warning for next year."
Dunphy agrees that drought in the Carolinas likely held back a more rapid advancement of rust. "Our really early beans did well. Once we got into the conventional maturities, however, we began seeing the effects of the dry weather and yields dropped off fast."
Many areas of North Carolina were wet during the planting season. Then conditions turned very dry. Many producers are now 10 to 12 inches behind normal rainfall.
"In the eastern part of the state, we had some weather damage problems — probably from Hurricane Ophelia and the 10 days following. During that time, it stayed cloudy and humid, the kind of conditions many soybean diseases like. That led to serious quality problems on top of lower yields."
Once North Carolina producers began harvesting late-maturing varieties, quality wasn't as bad but the low yields, as a consequence of dry weather, remained. Typically a late-harvesting state, North Carolina is less than half done with harvest.
"We should be finished with harvest in mid to late December," said Dunphy. "We'll probably end up with an average crop. It certainly won't be a special crop and won't be nearly as good as it looked in August. We tend to run in the high 20-bushel to low 30-bushel range. I think we'll be in the 20s this year."
South Carolina is close to being finished with harvest — probably 80 percent done, said Mueller. Despite the drought, "there are still some good beans out there. Some growers are reporting yields in the high 30s and 40s.
"For other fields, the drought hit at the wrong time. Yields there are pretty poor. There are parts of the state hit with drought for nearly the whole year. Many of the soybeans in those areas were abandoned."
Through the growing season, Mueller took "plenty" of calls about Asian soybean rust. "A lot of people in this state were watching closely."
In the southern part of South Carolina, "quite a few acres were sprayed with fungicides in early August. At that time, we had an excellent crop and growers sprayed not only to protect against rust but also pod and stem blight and anthracnose."
However, once drought hit there was less need to spray. "By the time we waited it out, it was too late to help the first crop," said Mueller. "And the second crop wasn't very good and rust had slowed so it wasn't worth the spraying cost."
Neither specialist believes soybean rust impacted yields.
"I don't think rust caused any economic damage to our crop," said Dunphy. "The majority of the finds have yielded a very limited number of pustules on a small percentage of leaves detectable only under a microscope. From that stage to widespread damage in a field, you're looking at two weeks.
"Well, by the time we found the first rust, 80 percent of our soybeans had already dropped their leaves. Add several weeks to that and we didn't have any (pod-fill) going on. That's why I don't think this year's rust cost us much, if anything."
As in other states, North Carolina had a soybean rust monitoring plan in place prior to the season. "We had 26 sentinel plots scattered throughout the state," said Dunphy. "We had a sentinel plot in, roughly, every third county along the South Carolina line and up the coast to the border with Virginia.
"We tried to extensively cover the South Carolina line and the coast, focusing on early detection, not so much late. The primary purpose of that, of course, was to give our farmers ample warning if the rust was coming close."
The best guess is soybean rust was distributed in North Carolina by Hurricane Ophelia. The first 13 rust sites — as well as the find in Edgecomb County, northeast of Raleigh — fit that theory.
As for the 15th find — Catawaba County, northwest of Charlotte — "we're not sure exactly how rust found it."
Dunphy and colleagues are now concentrating on soybean plants that refuse to dry down. There are also plants to check under night lights. "Those stay green until frost kills them. Last year, several states — including Missouri — found soybean rust on plants under night lights. Everything we're looking at currently is an unusual plant."
North Carolina has about 1.5 million acres of soybeans. "There's a heavier concentration in the Coastal Plain and Blacklands than in the Piedmont, although there are plenty of beans in the Piedmont."
Of the state's beans, just short of half are double-cropped and almost all are dryland. "Typically, our soybeans are heavily no-till and narrow-row," said Dunphy. "That's especially true for the double-crop beans.
"Most of our acres weren't sprayed with a fungicide — less than half, I'm sure. We usually have scattered acreage sprayed with a fungicide but we don't normally spray for diseases like the Mid-South does."
How do the Carolina specialists see soybean rust developing next year?
"It's a bit of guessing game," said Dunphy. "I think farmers will remain very concerned. We now know this disease can get to North Carolina and develop enough to be detectable here. There's no reason to think it can't develop enough to cause damage if it comes early enough."
Starting in February, Mueller will be "watching Florida to see what kind of winter they have. If it's mild, we'd anticipate seeing rust earlier next season.
"The big difference for next year is one wouldn't anticipate the kind of drought Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas had in 2005. So I think we should watch for rust not only coming up from Florida but also from the lower Mississippi valley. That would be a totally different situation than we saw this year. The potential for more rust is definitely there."

Ok, I have been holding this idea in my head for a while. I was determined not to post it until, AO implemented the forum that would be appropriate for it.
Ok here goes. I am thinking about hosting a AO Knowledge Bowl. I am not sure how I am going to do it yet, but I am pretty much thinking about Turning my IRC server on, and host it there. I am thinking about having different forums for different questions. There will probably be a bot in every channel Running it, sending me the totals. I will share what I will do with them later, when I finally figure out.
That is part one of the Knowledge bowl.
Now there is another part, that I am thinking about, it is going to be a chained thread, and how this thread is going to work is, I will ask a question, and people will post what they think is the answer until, I see the answer that is correct, once I see the correct answer I will post the next question.
Now here is where this gets interesting. I am not accepting any answers that are half assed. I want links, I want to know that when you answer people can, look at your answer and find out where you learned what you learned.
Now this is the other side of that, I am not going to create the questions, I am just going to choose them, I want people from AO, to PM me the questions. I will say what day, I want people to start PMing me the questions,( I have to clear out my PM box.) the thing that goes with the questions just like with the answers is that, you have to PM me as much Info as you can about Every question. The other thing, is I really don't want any basic Info, no Basic TCP/IP. I will decide what I think is basic and not.
The part that I really need help with is the questions part, that will be the part that will be the most work. If you guys think my Idea is a P.O.S. come up with a better one, but I am sick and ****ing tired of no one learning anything. So this is what I see as a way to fix that.
That is all that I can think of right now, there are other parts of my idea, which I will explain at a later, date. The only thing is that I need some kind of Conformation that I am going to recieve questions and input. (I am really not in the mood nore, do I have the time to write all the questions myself, and come up with all the links.) (So everyone knows, I will be checking all questions to make sure that the answers provided are correct.)
With all that said, let me know what you guys think, before I re-think about how much work this is going to be, and ****ing go crazy and say **** it.

Privately held BH Properties LLC has purchased Biltmore on the Lake Apartments in Phoenix for $10 million, well below the $22.85 million the property traded for in 2007. It's the Los Angeles-based company's third acquisition of a multifamily property in Arizona in less than a year.
The 420-unit garden style apartment community is located at 11050 North Biltmore Drive in the Sunnyslope submarket. The seller in the cash deal was Phoenix Biltmore LLC.
The property was built in the early 1980s and has been renovated and upgraded over the years. The complex sits on a lake and includes 21 three-story buildings. Amenities include a combination office/clubhouse, two pools, two tennis courts and a children's playground.
In addition, BH Properties plans to add a brand new outdoor community facility that will contain gazebos, barbeque grills, lounge areas and a putting green.
Studio apartments range in size from 335 sq. ft. to 435 sq. ft.; one- bedroom, one-bath units range from 540 to 580 sq. ft.; two-bedroom units range from 740 sq. ft. to 900 sq. ft.; three-bedroom, two-bath units feature 1,120 sq. ft.
"We are motivated to invest in this market again as it is an attractive relocation destination with superior demographic growth," says Steve Jaffe, executive vice president and general counsel for BH Properties.
Less than a month ago, BH Properties purchased Sunpoint Apartments in Phoenix for $4.86 million. Late last year the firm purchased Fiesta Park for $5.5 million in Mesa, Ariz. BH Properties is on target to purchase a minimum of $50 million in multifamily units in Arizona before the end of 2011.
Founded in 1997, BH Properties focuses on acquiring value-added multifamily, retail, office and industrial properties in targeted areas such as the Inland Empire in California, Las Vegas, Nevada and Phoenix.
BH Properties' portfolio includes more than 80 properties in 17 states. In addition to its headquarters in Los Angeles, BH Properties also has offices in Dallas and Salt Lake City.

I have thought about building a shop/gun storage building before, but made up my mind to actually move on the project this
coming year. Ideally I will have reinforced concrete walls, the whole works. Divide it in two with a floor to ceiling chain
length barrier separating the storage from the work/office area. Heat/air conditioning, and would like an office area, with
toilet, shower, day bed, etc. Hopefully 25'X50', but it may end up much simpler depending on the cost??
Anyway, I want to enclose two of these sea/land 20X8X8 containers in the storage/display end. They would have to go in after
I pour the pad, but before the actual structure (walls) went up. Once enclosed there will be no way to add more or take them out.
I have many items to include ammo that can not be stored in gun safes, but need some security. These should allow me
to do that.
I checked out the containers today and took a couple of pictures. ----. I am in the thinking planning stage so any ideas/advice
would be appreciated. Going to get my rough draft together in the next couple of weeks and talk to a builder.

MOBILE, Alabama (Reuters) - An Alabama businessman convicted of attempting to cover up his son's molestation of children at a family-run orphanage in Honduras was sentenced on Friday to two months in jail.
Bill Atkinson, 58, also was ordered to serve three years of home supervision and he was fined $25,000.
A jury convicted Atkinson earlier this year on charges of conspiracy and obstructing justice. Federal prosecutors presented evidence that he had instructed two of his sons to destroy a digital video recorder that contained footage of his eldest son sexually abusing children.
"We cannot allow people to destroy evidence without consequence," said U.S. District Judge Kristi DuBose, who handed down the sentence.
A son who is estranged from the family had secretly installed the camera at the orphanage after children there accused his brother of molesting them.
The other son, Williams James "Will" Atkinson IV, is in jail in Honduras, charged with raping at least two children.
The elder Atkinson's defense lawyers said their client had the recorder destroyed because he did not want child pornography in his home. They said prosecutors already had copies of the video.
Character witnesses, including pastors, former employees and fellow businessmen, testified in court on Friday that Bill Atkinson was a kind, fair and self-sacrificing man.
Atkinson took the stand, tearfully describing his shock and devastation over the video, and saying he feared for his son's mental state.
His attorney said the Bureau of Prisons would decide whether Atkinson would serve his sentence in a jail or a federal prison.
Atkinson, who runs a plant nursery in the Mobile suburb of Theodore, ran unsuccessfully last year for the Alabama House of Representatives.

MANCHESTER - Captain Marc-Andre Cliche scored a pair of goals but it was not enough to overcome the struggles of goaltender Martin Jones as the Manchester Monarchs fell to the Connecticut Whale, 5-2, in front of 3,906 fans at Verizon Wireless Arena Friday night.
The Monarchs dropped to .500 for the first time this season at 12-12-4. Jones added to his franchise-record losing streak, which now stands at eight games (0-6-2). Manchester will attempt to rebound tonight when it hosts Portland at 7 o'clock.
"I don't how to explain this one. We played really well," said Cliche, who netted his fourth and fifth of the year. "It's a couple mistakes that we had mentally. When (the other team makes mistakes) we don't capitalize on it and it seems like when we make one, other teams score a goal every single time."
Manchester controlled play for stretches of the game but could not break through with enough goals. A strong second period turned a 2-0 deficit into a 2-2 game, but a Kelsey Tessier goal for the Whale (12-13-2) with 24 seconds remaining in the second changed momentum in the game.
"We really didn't need to give that one up late," Monarchs head coach Mark Morris said. "You would hope you can go in and ride that momentum and it puts you in a good mental state for the rest of the game. But that one was very frustrating for the whole team."
Connecticut closed out the win with two goals in the third period. Chris Kreider scored on a wrist shot from above the right circle to make it 4-2 at the 4:46 mark. The goal ended Jones' night in net and Peter Mannino came on to mop up. Mannino will start tonight against Portland.
The Whale iced the win with an empty-net goal from Kris Newbury with 46 seconds remaining.
"I didn't like the goals that we allowed tonight," Morris said. "We've got to find a way to keep the puck out of the net."
The Monarchs appeared to have things back on course in the second period. Cliche scored his first of the game at 13:18 on the power play, re-directing a Jake Muzzin shot past Cam Talbot to make it 2-1.
Cliche tied the game just 46 seconds later. Rich Clune led the rush, passing to Stefan Legein at center and Legein fed Cliche for a close-range shot that hit Talbot but flipped up and into the net at 14:04.
But Connecticut was able to reclaim the lead at 3-2 on the Tessier goal. Tessier cruised into the slot and was not picked up and he then used Bryan Rodney as a screen to beat Jones with a wrist shot high to the stick side.
The Whale took a 1-0 lead at 7:54 of the first period. Newbury dug the puck out of the left corner and sent it into the slot for a wide-open Marek Hrivik. A quick fake got Jones down and out and Hrivik swept the puck into the open left side of the cage.
Connecticut pushed to a 2-0 lead at 12:40 with a power-play goal. A centering pass attempt from Chad Kolarik was deflected to the high slot and Newbury stepped into a slap shot. Jones got a piece of it but the puck trickled into the net.
The Monarchs have a chance to enter the Christmas break on a positive note if they can knock off red-hot Portland. The Pirates have won six in a row to move into first place in the Atlantic Division and come into tonight's game having had Friday off.
"It's going to be a big game," Clune said. "You don't want to go into the break with any regrets."

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y.—Announced earlier this month, Tunstall Healthcare Group, through its subsidiary Tunstall Americas, acquired Providence Lifeline Medical Alert Service. Tunstall Americas provides healthcare monitoring services throughout the United States.
"For us, we were looking at really filling in geography and covering pockets that we hadn't really had good distribution in," Ryan Fix, VP and general manager for Tunstall Americas, told Security Systems News. "We've been in discussions with them … for about two years now. So, it was a long process of really getting to know both organizations and coming together to find the right solution."
Providence Lifeline Medical Alert Service is a business unit of Providence Health & Services, with a presence in the Northwest U.S, as well as in California, Texas and New Mexico. Tunstall will be maintaining the offices and the staff, expanding its regional presence.
"We service the same customers. I think we've got a broader service offering as far as product portfolio. So, we'll be able to bring that to the customers out of the gate," Fix said.
"One of the synergies that we had—that both organizations believed in—was really that service aspect. Instead of mailing units out, we have feet on the ground and field technicians that go out and actually go to the customers homes and do the installation and do any of the service calls that are required," Fix said.
Providence's accounts, which were previously monitored through Phillips Lifeline, will be brought into Tunstall's HIPAA compliant call centers in New York and Rhode Island.
Tunstall completed one other acquisition this year, a smaller purchase in the Midwest, Fix said. "Behind the scenes, we've been making investments into expanding technology, upgrading platforms and doing things that … we think, separated us from anybody else in the industry.
Tunstall Americas was formed in 2012, after Tunstall Healthcare Group purchased the American Medical Alert Corporation. Tunstall Americas currently has 500 employees.
In addition to medical monitoring services, Tunstall also manufactures a range of medical alert, telehealth, and medication management solutions including traditional telephone based systems, cellular systems, and mobile safety devices to meet the needs of all individuals.
Survey results from Unisys show a trend away from traditional on-premises data centers toward cloud-based hosting. Survey respondents indicated that use of on-premises data centers will decrease from 43 percent now to 29 percent in 2019, while private cloud use will increase from 20 percent now, up to 28 percent in two years. Over the same period, public cloud use will rise from 18 percent to 21 percent, hybrid cloud from 11 percent to 13 percent, and use of community cloud (a private cloud shared by multiple organizations with a common mission) will hold steady at 9 percent.
"The results of this survey show that government decision makers understand the importance of embracing the cloud to help achieve their modernization goals," Venkatapathi "PV" Puvvada, president of Unisys Federal, said in the survey report. "But it also showed that nearly two-thirds are encountering unanticipated difficulties as they move to the cloud. Fortunately, those respondents who are actively working with industry partners to facilitate their cloud transitions reported a much easier road to cloud adoption by a two-to-one margin."
The respondents show widespread agreement on the benefits enterprises expect from the cloud. At least 94 percent cite improved disaster recovery/business continuity, agility and flexibility, more efficient storage, reduced capital costs and standardization of IT as being at least somewhat important. Improving agility—the capability to deploy IT resources nimbly in response to quickly changing business conditions and the factor most closely aligned to gaining competitive advantage—is the top driver overall, with 78 percent of respondents saying it is critical or very important.
In addition, many respondents report encountering unexpected roadblocks, with 60 percent saying those impediments slowed their cloud migrations and 17 saying that the roadblocks brought their migrations to a standstill.
While nearly two-thirds of respondents (62 percent) rated cybersecurity as the top priority for agency modernization projects over the next year, nearly the same percentage (59 percent) reported that they think their agency's IT modernization efforts have resulted in an increase in the IT security challenges they face. And when asked to grade their agencies' modernization efforts, 43 percent graded those efforts at "satisfactory" or lower when it comes to improving cybersecurity.
"The results of this survey tell us that many federal agencies may not have adequate staff and resources to manage security challenges in today's more complex and modernized IT environments, which in our view explains the feedback about modernization efforts exacerbating security challenges," said Puvvada. "To achieve successful digital transformation, agencies must make security a priority and embark on projects that enhance security at the core, as well as boost operational efficiency to meet mission-critical goals."
Here at Security Systems News, we feel also feel that cloud will continue to play an increasingly influential and disruptive role in security, transforming how we look at physical security in today's digital world. For others who share this view, or are just curious about the role of cloud in security today and in the future, SSN invites you to attend our Cloud+ conference, which is Nov. 28-29, 2017, in Austin, Texas.

Honeywell announced today that it has appointed Richard (Rich) Lattanzi as the president of Honeywell's global security business and Dino Koutrouki as the president of Honeywell's global fire business.
In their new leadership roles, Lattanzi and Koutrouki will drive greater customer focus, the press release read, and both will continue to report to Michael Flink, president of Honeywell Security and Fire.
"Serving our customers and growing our business are at the core of everything we do in our security and fire businesses," Flink said in the announcement. "Having two independent teams focused on their business will bring us closer to our customers, maximizing our core strengths and enabling increased efficiencies. I am confident that Rich and Dino will drive performance in their respective businesses to better serve our customers."
As the new president of security, Lattanzi will be responsible for all operations, business strategy and growth for the global security business. He previously served as the vice president and general manager for Honeywell Security and Fire Americas, and prior to that held the position of global vice president and general manager for buildings within Honeywell's Environmental & Energy Solutions (E&ES). Lattanzi joined Honeywell through the acquisition of Elster, where he was president of the global thermal solutions business.
As the new president of fire, Koutrouki will be responsible for all operations, business strategy and growth for the global fire business. He previously served as the vice president and general manager for Honeywell Security and Fire EMEA, and prior to that held the position of vice president and general manager for the Honeywell Scanning and Mobility APAC organization. Koutrouki joined Honeywell as part of the EMS Technologies acquisition, and held a variety of leadership roles across the company.
Honeywell Security and Fire is part of the Home and Building Technologies strategic business group.
Back in March I talked with a software company, OneEvent, that showcased its cloud-based predictive analytics engine, OnePrevent, at ISC West. The company started by focusing on predicting fires through monitoring environmental sensors and now it is rolling out a new humidity and temperature sensor which will bring information into its OnePrevent platform.
"When we rolled out the product in February, it was very much around the smoke alarm, the motion alarms, door/windows, and answering the questions of 'Where's the fire? Where did it start? Where is it going? And, where are the people?'" Dan Parent, OneEvent's chief operating officer and VP of engineering, told Security Systems News.
"The algorithms that we put into place around those sensors are extremely flexible, especially around the temperature measurements that we're reading from our smoke alarms," he said. This lead the company to develop the new temperature sensor that also measures humidity. Specifically, the company was looking for "a very accurate, repeatable, resilient, economical sensor that can give us capabilities in other areas."
OneEvent was rolling out a prototype for the temperature and humidity sensor around ISC West 2017 and now the sensor is fully available.
Parent highlighted data centers as a potential market opportunity for the new temperature and humidity center, "One of the biggest problems in an IT data center—other than cybersecurity—is the health of their equipment. … They want to maintain a particular humidity level, and they want to maintain a particular temperature level."
Other potential markets include Residential properties worried about moisture, indoor pool areas, apartment complexes, restaurants and walk-in coolers and freezers, OneEvent's announcement noted.
The temperature and humidity sensor has capabilities in OneEvent's fire detection analytics. "In all NFPA regulations, you have to maintain a particular distance between the cooking apparatus and where the smoke alarm is," Parent said. "We want to put the temperature/humidity [sensor] right over the stove." This would help the analytics engine understand whether smoke could be related to cooking.
"It's incredible; the power of measuring the data and being able to couple that measured data to the individual who impacts the building to create the data," Parent said. OneEvent's also has a multi-sensor smoke/temperature alarm, door/window sensor, multi-sensor presence detector and water sensor.

BOCA RATON, Fla.—Red Hawk Fire & Security, a provider of fire, life safety and security services based here, is providing resources and integrated systems expertise as a charter donor for the command and control center at the new National Sport Security Laboratory (NSSL) at the National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4) on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg.
The lab officially opened on Sept. 1, bringing to life NCS4's vision to be the world's foremost academic research institution to address sport safety and security risks and threats. Since its inception in 2006, the NCS4 has worked to address the evolving security challenges of the growing $60-billion U.S. sports industry through quality training, research, technology assessments, certifications and professional development.
The new lab is designed to test, evaluate and showcase vendor neutral safety and security solutions as well as to assist the training, research and development needs of venue operators and security professionals at sports settings globally.
"Red Hawk is well-equipped to bring our practical, hands-on experience integrating systems at several prominent stadiums and arenas to enhance the efforts of NCS4 as they do the important work of responding to this significant community safety concern," Rick Tampier, Red Hawk's senior director of sales and product strategy, said in the announcement.
Daniel Ward, the director of the National Laboratory and Training Center, describes the new facility as a living laboratory that gives students, academia, industry and government a place to research and learn.
"The center incorporates cutting-edge technology which provides the university with capabilities to gather, process, analyze, display and disseminate planning and operations data for research and training," said Ward.
The NSSL's new center now connects to the numerous sport facilities on the University of Southern Mississippi's Hattiesburg campus allowing researchers and solutions providers to immerse themselves in a real-life sports safety and security environment.
"Connecting our athletic facilities as part of our laboratory provides amazing opportunities for our students," Dr. Lou Marciani, NCS4 director, said in the announcement. "They will be able to work with professional, intercollegiate, interscholastic and marathon sports organizations and facilities to test theories, translate lessons learned and best practices into real-world solutions while also building the sports safety and security profession for the future."
NCS4 recently earned accreditation for its Certified Sport Security Professional (CSSP) certification program from the American National Standards Institute Personal Certification Accreditation Program (ANSI). CSSP is the nation's first professional security credential designed for those responsible for the planning and overall security operations of sports venues and events.
KANSAS CITY, Kan.—Earlier this week StoneLock, a biometrics company focused on designing and manufacturing access control and identity management solutions, announced that Jim Trani is the company's CTO.
"My job, basically, is to create that vision of what we need to do to take us out of our advanced startup mode into a full-blown, high-tech producer, and to implement that," Trani told Security Systems News.
StoneLock's readers use near-infrared light to see multiple layers of a persons face. "We process a near-infrared image, and from that, we derive our biometric data that is used for match on subsequent verification," Trani said. This process is completed at an edge device, as opposed to leveraging surveillance cameras and servers, he noted.
"[Biometrics] has never really made the inroads that I think it could make. And, I think our introduction of near-infrared, and the performance we get from that, and bringing it out to the edge like we do, really allows facial recognition to emerge as the gold standard for biometrics," Trani said.
He continued, "I believe that over the next three to five years, with the way we've structured ourselves, biometrics can be in every household, and it can affect your life in many more ways than just being a mechanism to get you through a door at some institutional facility."
Trani has "40 years of experience in research and development of engineering solutions," the announcement noted. Trani previously worked with Tyco, Pelco, Infographic Systems and Compass Technologies/Wheelock.
StoneLock was started in 2012. The company, based here, has about 40 employees globally.
Demand for security cameras in the U.S. is projected to increase 7.2 percent annually through 2021 to $2.8 billion, according to a new report entitled Video Surveillance Equipment Market in the U.S. from The Freedonia Group, a Cleveland-based research firm.
The company found that gains will result from a variety of factors that support replacement demand and sales of higher value, upgraded versions, including:• Ongoing product advancements in camera technology.• Increasing affordability of cameras with expanded features, such as internal recording capabilities.• Continued shift toward upgrading existing legacy analog systems to either IP or HD analog systems in order to utilize more feature-rich cameras and systems.• Rising interest in higher value, more niche camera types—such as thermal or explosion resistant—as their prices continue to come down, which will work to expand the base of installed cameras.
In 2016, dome cameras accounted for the largest share of video surveillance camera demand with 42 percent, the report found. "Sales of these products have benefited from developments over the past decade, such as increased durability and higher resolutions," the press release read. "This has allowed for broader use of dome cameras in both indoor and outdoor applications. Dome camera sales have also gained from the rising use of cameras indoors, where these constructions are still highly popular due to their discreet appearance."
Through 2021, sales of all video surveillance products are projected to increase 5.6 percent annually to $4.9 billion, according to the Freedonia Group, which noted that growth "will be driven by the increasing affordability of feature-rich systems that incorporate enhanced capabilities, which will work to expand the base of end users that choose to install video surveillance systems and spur replacement and upgrade demand among existing users."
I am very excited to announce Security Systems News' Cloud+ 2017 conference education program, which can be found here. The show is Nov. 28-29, and back at the beautiful and relaxing Lost Pines Resort in the tech-savvy city of Austin, Texas.
This year's education program is expanded, as we strive to be the education destination for those who are pioneering within the cloud community, which is revolutionizing security today.
As you look through this year's program it will quickly become apparent that "Selling the Cloud" is an underlying theme for the conference, as sessions will look at how integrators, specifiers, dealers, suppliers—anyone looking to increase revenue and profits while providing cost-effective solutions with a high ROI—are leveraging cloud technology and computing with great success. Some of the leading integrators in the industry will uncover how they are transitioning from the traditional sales model to a more managed services model that increases RMR and lowers creation cost.
And subject matter experts from the leading cloud solution and services providers in the industry will not only be there on panels to share best practices and the latest advances and research, but also many will be exhibiting, so you can dive in deeper and get face to face with the top cloud companies working in security today.
There are also cloud-centered sessions looking at the rise of smarter, safer cities and the potential there for the security industry; cybersecurity in the cloud; how to hire IT-savvy employees who can talk cloud; and much more!

Here at Security Systems News, we cover a variety of topics related to the physical security industry. As a result, we get to track trends in the industry; we see when they first come up and we see when they become more prevalent. The matter of false alarms is one that I can say I've been watching since I started with SSN.
Some municipalities have sought to fine alarm companies for users' false alarms. In late 2014, shortly after I joined the publication, I was speaking with the Security Industry Alarm Coalition about the City of Chico, Calif., that passed an ordinance like this. The city then revised the ordinance after a response from SIAC and California Alarm Association.
More recently, Sandy Springs, Ga., also looked to bring fines for false alarms to the dealers.
California has now stepped in to stop alarm companies in the state from being fined for false alarms that the installation or the equipment didn't directly cause. Read more about that here.
Security Systems News' latest monthly News Poll asks about whether false alarm ordinances, particularly the ones that fine alarm dealers and installers, pose a large problem for the industry. Feel free to weigh in on that here. Additionally, feel free to share your thoughts on the best methods for reducing false alarms.
Different areas have taken different approaches to false alarms. In 2015, New Orleans considered outsourcing alarm fine collections to CryWolf, which specializes in issuing and collecting fines, permit fees, and compiling alarm system data. This is a practice that SIAC recommends.
Back in 2014, I spoke with another SIAC's, Steve Keefer, about an interesting approach: using volunteers to reduce false alarm dispatches. These were "regular citizens that just want to help out in the community," Keefer said, by notifying repeat false alarm offenders and discussing ways to reduce false alarms.

text: The Firewheel Golf Park Bridges Course ranked first for Most Improved golf course in Avid Golfer magazine's public golf rankings list. The Bridges Course also ranked fourth among the Top 5 Mid-Priced courses, fourth for Best Renovations, and 22nd out of 65 in the 2012 DFW Public Golf Rankings list—up ten spots from the previous year. Upgrades to the Bridges Course were completed this past summer that included renovated bunkers re-lined with white sand. The Bentgrass greens were revamped on the Traditions nine and the finishing hole was tweaked, while cosmetic and colorful touches were added throughout the course. "We are honored to be recognized by Avid Golfer magazine," said Mayor Ronald E. Jones. "The City of Garland is extremely proud of its municipal course—Firewheel Golf Park—and we will continue to provide the public with an excellent golfing experience at a reasonable price and top-notch customer service." Firewheel Golf Park opened its first 18-hole course in 1983, and has grown into a 63-hole premier public golf complex that features three regulation courses: Bridges, Lakes and Old Lakes course. The Bridges Course features three unique nines—Masters, Champions and Traditions—that boast sculpted fairways with Bentgrass greens lined with large oak and pecan trees. The Lakes Course is considered the toughest 18 holes of the three, while the Old Lakes Course is considered the most user-friendly. A brand new short game area secured The Old Lakes Course with the 47th spot on the annual list. Additional improvements are planned for the Old Lakes Course that will include new white bunkers.

Liverpool's Pepe Reina dismisses ongoing Barcelona speculation
Liverpool's Pepe Reina has reiterated he will not join Barca this summer - but hopes Spurs' Gareth Bale will join Real.
By Lucas Brown
Last Updated: 19/02/13 5:20am
Reina continues to be linked with a return to his boyhood club after current keeper Victor Valdes announced last month that he would not be signing a new contract, with his deal set to expire in 2014.
The Spaniard dismissed reports he could return to Camp Nou earlier this month and he has reiterated his stance.
Reina, who has been at Liverpool since 2005, told Radio Marca: "Any talk of me joining Barca is just speculation. I've got a contract at Liverpool and I'm very happy here.
"I am sure Victor Valdes with have his reasons for deciding to leave Barcelona. I respect him. He's my teammate and friend. He'll be leaving with his head held high, as he's given his all to Barcelona."
Spurs ace Bale is another Premier League player being linked with a Spanish move and Reina admits he would not be sorry to see him go.
The 30-year-old joked: "If Real Madrid signs Bale, I'll be delighted. He causes me a lot of problems."
One player who Reina is not expecting to make a move to Spain is Reds team-mate Luis Suarez, who he believes will stay at Anfield.
"I can't see Luis Suarez playing in La Liga. I think he'll stay at Liverpool. He's a great player," he added.
"So are Bale and a few others in the Premier League."

Students join president at Watch FactoryFaced with an unexpectedly large number of arriving students this fall, the university has found a creative solution to meet their housing needs: move in with the president. Well, not quite. But eight graduate students from the International Business School have taken up residence in the historic Watch Factory building for one semester, claiming the same address as their university's president in the heart of Waltham.
It is the first time Brandeis has had to find additional housing space off campus to meet the needs of eager arrivals. Preference for on-campus housing was given to undergraduates.
"The feeling was that if we could come up with a reasonable alternative, we would prefer not to turn down these students on the wait list who had very strong reasons for wanting to be on campus," said Andrew Flagel, senior vice president for students and enrollment.
Once it recognized the challenge, the administration spent time over the summer looking at a number of potential facilities. In the end, the Watch Factory offered a degree of flexibility that made it the preferred choice, both in terms of cost and in the length of commitment that was required. As a result, Brandeis is able to make the space available without a significant budgetary impact.
In view of Brandeis's growing popularity, student housing is one of the many topics that will be looked at as part of the university's strategic planning process, which began last year.
"I'm very excited about the ideas that are developing through that process and the potential for where we will take our community over the next couple of years," says Flagel.
How does President Lawrence feel about his newest neighbors?
"Fred's excitement really has been about the whole dynamism of bringing the residents so close to campus and into the heart of Waltham," says Flagel. "It seems fitting to also have some of our students living not just in the community, but in that building itself."

Metallica's Kirk Hammett: 'We're Just a Little Thrash Band From San Francisco'
Kirk Hammett may play guitar for metal's most successful band, but the Metallica shredder remains humble to this day. In a new interview with Hammett, the guitarist puts Metallica's success into perspective while claiming that the titans are "just a little thrash band from San Francisco."
From humble roots, Metallica have carved out a career spanning over three decades, becoming one of the most commercially successful acts of all time by selling an estimated 110 million albums. Most recently, Metallica organized two 'Orion Music + More' festivals, created the 3D concert film 'Metallica Through the Never' and performed at the 2014 Grammy Awards with classical pianist Lang Lang.
"The whole Lang Lang thing just surfaced in one week," Hammett tells Metal Hammer, "like, 'Ok, we've been invited to play the Grammys with a classical pianist, here's the track, do you want to do it?' We were like, 'Sure!' even though we're just a little thrash band from San Francisco."
Metal Hammer recently visited Kirk Hammett's horror-based 'Fear Festevil,' which was held at San Francisco's Regency Ballroom from Feb. 6-8. The mag scored an interview with Hammett, where the guitarist spoke about what he thinks of Metallica's success and the future of the act's music.
"I think maybe we want to think of ourselves as a little thrash band from San Francisco," begins Hammett. "Sure there's managerial situations and strategies and whatnot that we've used to become bigger, but at the end of the day it just comes down to the music. When we're all gone, the music is gonna live on, and that's gonna be our legacy, not selling out four stadiums in a row in Sweden or playing with Lang Lang at the Grammys. It's gonna be someone discovering 'Disposable Heroes' in 2086 and thinking, 'This is really cool stuff, what year is this? 1986, wow!'"

This story is part of All Things Considered's "Men in America" series.
Last week, we posed the question, "What object makes you feel manly?" You told us about handkerchiefs and boxing gloves, typewriters and vintage tools. Listen to the audio above to hear NPR's Robert Siegel round up audience responses; we've also compiled some of the social media responses below.
And now onto some fun - fun. Last week, we asked you this. What object, gadget, toy, tool, stuff makes you feel manly? And why? Well, we got a lot of response from men and women. Some of your manly things include a sledgehammer, neon red lipstick and a Dick Butkus Chicago Bears throwback jersey. Rich Greene of Atlanta tweeted about his box cutter saying this - something about flipping the blade out makes me feel like a 1950s juvenile delinquent on a motorcycle. Well, if you're Sanka Perera of Alexandria, Virginia, you're actually on a motorcycle and without a box cutter. This, by the way, isn't his motorcycle. Perara writes this - while at first glance, that seems like a cliche answer, what it represents is freedom and solitude, the two things I value the most as a full-grown man and what I hope to give my children one day. Children and what they do to you came up a lot. Joe Bernstein of Chicago says what makes him feel like a man are his gray hairs. He writes, I got them during those early fatherhood days of short nights and the months after becoming a father. I view them as my badge of manly fatherhood experience. Main Kim for Fort Lee, New Jersey tells us his manly object is his vintage Seamaster 1953 watch. It doesn't just keep time. It makes it more meaningful. He writes, to a boy, a watch is a watch. To a man, a watch is a story and something he can pass on. And the object that makes Fred Gordon of Portland, Oregon feel manly - a flute - works for Ron Burgundy, too.
WILL FERRELL: (As Ron Burgundy) That's baby-making music. That's what that is.
SIEGEL: Mr. Gordon tells us, I survived grade school and high school in the mid-'60s as the sole or sometimes one of two male flautist. It didn't win me a lot of pointers with my peers, male or female, because it wasn't guy enough. Fred Gordon says he still plays his flute. He adds this, though - to me, a real man likes what he likes, decides what it means to be a real man and sticks with it. You can see a visual round up of many more manly objects at npr.org, and you can submit your own. Just use the hashtag #menpr.
SALT 'N' PEPPA: (Singing) What a man - what a man - what a man - what a mighty good man - What a mighty good man. What a man - what a man - what a man - what a mighty good man.
SIEGEL: You are listening to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — An early FBI assessment of a teenager agents thought was a potential terrorist threat has given ammunition to both prosecution and defense attorneys in an Oregon terrorism trial.
Mohamed Mohamud was 17-years-old in the summer of 2009, when he captured the FBI's attention by corresponding with a Saudi Arabian man sought by Interpol on terrorism charges.
In an email assessment of Mohamud, FBI Special Agent Isaac DeLong told colleagues Mohamud was "conflicted and manipulable," but his writings for an online English-language jihadi magazine praising 9/11 concerned him.
"(Mohamud) wants to have it both ways," DeLong wrote in the November 2009 email, saying Mohamud wanted to both live under hardline Islamic rule while also enjoying the college party scene of binge drinking and smoking marijuana.
Mohamud is accused of attempting to detonate a bomb at a Portland Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in November 2010.
DeLong testified Wednesday under cross examination in Mohamud's terrorism trial that Mohamud's attempt to live two lives meant he could be easily manipulated. He wrote that Mohamud seemed to have left his radical Islamic leanings behind when he went to college at Oregon State University in August 2009.
But DeLong said the bureau also worried that Mohamud's previous writing and the fact that his concerned father contacted the FBI worrying that Mohamud had been "brainwashed" led agents to believe he could become a threat.
DeLong's initial suggestion was to try to "pitch" Mohamud on being an informant for the FBI on the Corvallis Muslim community. It's unclear whether that suggestion was ever seriously entertained.
DeLong's testimony also revealed that FBI agents in the Charlotte, N.C., office tracking now-deceased al-Qaida operative Samir Khan were the first to identify Mohamud as a potential threat because of communication between the two.
The FBI was tracking Khan — who was killed in a drone strike with then-al-Qaida leader Anwar al-Awlaki — when they came across Mohamud's emails to him in early 2009. They tracked down Mohamud's IP address to a Portland suburb and identified him. When he cropped up on the bureau's radar again, DeLong said he was able to rely on that information to identify Mohamud.
DeLong also said that a team of FBI agents followed Mohamud during his freshman year of college, monitoring his phone calls, text messages and emails, along with video and photo surveillance.
At any time, federal public defender Steve Wax asked, did Mohamud write or say anything concerning a potential terrorist attack? DeLong said he hadn't.
Earlier on Wednesday, defense attorney Lisa Hay tried to draw into question the accuracy and selectiveness of the written records made by the FBI agent who headed up the undercover investigation into Mohamud.
The records are crucial to establishing the initial face-to-face contact between Mohamud and an undercover agent posing as a jihadi.
That meeting would help establish Mohamud's mindset before an FBI sting operation targeting him swung into high gear and culminated with his arrest.
His attorneys are trying to show he was not predisposed to terrorism before he met two men — actually undercover agents — who promised him the chance to work for al-Qaida and carry out an act of terrorism in the U.S.
The FBI has said the undercover agent attempted to tape-record the original face-to-face meeting with Mohamud on July 30, 2010, but the battery in his recording device failed.
After the meeting, the undercover agent's FBI handler, Elvis Chan, took notes and wrote a summary about it. The FBI learned on Aug. 2, 2010, that the recorder did not function, but Chan said he wasn't told about it.
He destroyed his notes on Aug. 3, 2010, leaving only his written summary.
During Mohamud's terrorism trial on Wednesday, defense attorney Lisa Hay questioned why Chan chose not to record the agent telling Mohamud that he was in competition with five other men to help carry out a purported al-Qaida plot, a fact that Hay asserted in previous questioning could coerce a naive 18-year-old into getting involved with the plot.
Hay said Chan neglected to include facts from other calls and meetings that would be helpful to Mohamud's defense, including Mohamud expressing a desire to go overseas instead of carrying out the plot, and another occasion when he wanted to "back out."
Chan did note the small talk between Mohamud and the undercover agent, including details on where Mohamud went to school and what he was studying.
"I summarized what I believed to be the highlights of the meeting," Chan said.
"And the highlights for you were the small talk," Hay replied.

Liberty Sports Marketing exists to create an avenue for businesses and individuals in the Central Virginia area to partner with Flames athletics to convey their message to the largest event gatherings offered in the region.
Our intent in all cases is to become the best partner possible to every one of our sponsors. We would rather suggest the best method to reach stated goals in order to benefit the specific vendor as opposed to forcing something into a sponsorship package that will not further those goals. This partnership approach has allowed us to quickly reach the point that our limited inventory items sell out rapidly.
Our guidelines require us to give first right of refusal on all inventory to the previous sponsor. We suggest that, if a specific item is desired, sponsors contact us well ahead of time to make the request so they will be on the appropriate waiting list. A significant portion of our sponsorship items are not specifically limited inventory which, gives us the ability to meet many of the goals set forth by our sponsors.
Association with Liberty's successful athletics programs and record-setting crowds will be a positive experience for any business that attempts to reach out to the general public and the Liberty community. In addition to the Flames athletics events hosted on campus throughout the year, Liberty has become a destination for many high school, community and ministry-related events. This fact adds value to most of the sponsorship packages and provides a bonus to our partners.

Weight Loss
Immune System
GI Tract
We're so confident you will see results we offer a
90-Day Money Back Guarantee!
Bovine colostrum is 99% identical to human colostrum but contains far more beneficial factors than what any human mother can produce!
Why Colostrum6
The first "whole food" produced by all mammals for only the first few hours before and after birth (6 to be exact). Our Colostrum6 comes in both a powder and capsule and is loaded with over 95 immune factors and 87 growth factors, Bovine (cow) colostrum is considered Mother Nature's "first whole food". Natural colostrum has volumes of medical research supporting its health benefits, unlike many supplements. More than 150,000 scientific papers line the medical journals with documentation on colostrum's ability to beneficially support a wide variety of health issues.
Through its natural composition, this powerful whole-food has the ability to bring remarkable health benefits all on its own. Its constituents come together to help build and strengthen an infant's immune system, gradually promoting the body's ability to ward off disorderly issues increasingly present in the environment today. With that being said, what do you think this powerful "food" can do for an adult? Below are just some of the 700+ Health Promoting Agents.
Neutralize pathogens in the lymphatic and circulatory systems.
A small hormone-like protein that can suppress appetite and lead to body weight reduction. Mature fat cells (adipocytes) release leptin in the presence of insulin, which is also found in colostrum. Leptin deficiency may be associated with obesity, particularly in diabetic individuals.
A hormone composed of two protein-based chains, known as alpha or beta chains, which are separately present in bovine colostrum. The chains act on the thymus gland independently or in concert with each other to stimulate activation, development and maintenance of the immune system.
Enzyme inhibitors
Also known as "permeability factors" are actually small proteins that slow down or inhibit the enzymatic breakdown of proteins. They provide protection to the immune, growth and metabolic factors as they pass through the digestive tract.
Proline-rich polypeptide (PRP)
Is a hormone that helps regulate the immune system, keeping it in balance between under- and over- activity.
Insulin-like Growth factor (IGFSF)
IGF I and II belong to a whole family of hormones contained in colostrum, called the IGF super family. IGF-I is considered to be the most potent of these; triggering the events that activate cell growth and reproduction, protein synthesis, and the release of energy (glucose metabolism).
featured elements
The world's ONLY third party verified raw, true 6-Hour Colostrum. Supportive to digestive health and an essential balanced gut environment.
Nature's most complete whole food; no transitional milk in it and all the natural components are left fully intact.
A functional food supercharged with 97 immune factors and 87 known growth factors.

Anti Aging
If your aim is to look and feel young for as long as you can, you'll need to have "youthful" anti-aging components that focus on the body and mind at your disposal! It is true that one of the biggest keys to a long and healthy life is choosing your parents wisely. That, of course, isn't truly a choice, but you don't have to be a slave to your family's heredity; there is another "family" called the IGF-1 Super Family that has been shown to have a major impact on keeping you "youthful"!
Weight Loss
Leptin has been dubbed "The Amazing Fat Shrinking Molecule". Colostrum provides all of the factors that enable the body to use Leptin. Five things that Leptin does for successful weight loss and to maintain those losses are: Safely control your appetite; Cleanse your cravings; Balance Body Chemistries; Increase Lean Muscle and Burn Fat.
Fitness is more than just being in shape…Fitness is about how you feel AND how you look, rather than just about exercise! The components within our products work systematically from the inside out to provide you with both physical and mental fitness. Our products help get you where you want to be and help you feel good while getting there!
Immune System
How you feel is even more important than the way you look. Let's face it, if you look like you have the perfect body but suffer from a chronic situation, are you fit? Physical activity can help reduce your risk of chronic issues, but what if you already suffer from "dis-ease"? Our products bring balance to an unbalanced system!
GI Tract
Research tells us; all chronic health issues begin in the gut so it makes sense that healing must begin in the gut. Colostrum offers protection through Immunoglobulin A (IgA), Proline Rich Polypeptides (PRP) and Epithelial Growth Factors (EGF) and more; all of the components work together to balance the gut and allow it to flourish in its natural state.

New interactive website provides digital rainfall maps, patternsUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Posted: Oct 20, 2011
The Hawaiian Islands have one of the most diverse rainfall patterns on earth. One of the most frequently cited publication on Hawai'i's environment is the Rainfall Atlas of Hawai'i, first published in 1986, by UH Mānoa Geography Professor Dr. Tom Giambelluca, Meteorology Professor Tom Schroeder and Michael Nullet, currently a Geography Research Assistant. The printed publication provided a set of maps of the spatial patterns of rainfall for the major Hawaiian Islands. Fast forward twenty-five years, Giambelluca, along with UH Mānoa Geography Assistant Professor Qi Chen and Masters' student Abby Frazier, recently led a team of UH Mānoa researchers to create a new, interactive online website housing updated rainfall patterns. Giambelluca specializes in climate, climate change, and ecohydrology.
The website was developed to make rainfall maps, data and related information easily accessible. Features include: high resolution downloadable digital maps for mean monthly and annual rainfall and uncertainty for each station used in the analysis, as well as files with information on each rain gage station.
The website also allows users to view the patterns of mean monthly and annual rainfall and corresponding uncertainty, zoom in on areas of particular interest, navigate to specific locations with the help of a choice of different base maps, and click on any location to get the mean annual rainfall and a graph and table of mean monthly rainfall.
Over the course of the two-year project, rainfall measurements taken at over 1,000 stations were used as the principal source of information in the development of the rainfall maps. The maps represent the best estimates of the mean rainfall for the 30-year base period 1978–2007. However, for many reasons, it is not possible to determine the exact value of mean rainfall for any location. Therefore, for every map of mean rainfall, corresponding map of uncertainty is provided.
Knowledge of the mean rainfall patterns is critically important for a variety of meteorological, agricultural and resource management issues, including ground water and surface water development and protection, controlling and eradicating invasive species, protecting and restoring native ecosystems, and planning for the effects of global warming.
The 2011 Rainfall Atlas of Hawai'i was developed under an agreement between the State of Hawai'iCommission on Water Resource Management and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Honolulu District under Section 22 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1974. Contract No. W9128A-04-D-0019, Contract Task Order No. 0038 was awarded to Wil Chee Planning Inc., which subcontracted the work to the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, Geography Department.
