Yves Saint Laurent Dresses Lipstick in Couture
New from YSL is Yves Saint Laurent Lip Twins Duo, $30. Here is a totally new concept in cosmetics. Lip Twins Duo is a double lipstick encased in couture jewel-like packaging. This luxurious gold cylinder houses: two lipsticks, a mirror and when you pull out the monogrammed crown...you'll even find a brush! Keep turning the YSL logo for endless surprises.
The concept behind this invention is that a woman can now combine colors and textures to suit her many different moods. Wait, is this a little condescending? Women don't have mood swings (wink).
One side of the cylinder contains a satin lipstick that adds fullness to your lips. It has a rich texture and contains filler micro-spheres composed of dehydrated hyaluronic acid. They capture moisture on the lips like molecular sponges to really plump them up and fill in fine lines.
The second twin is a glossy lipstick that adds life and lustre to your lips. It contains Colorshine pigment complex that diffuses light like a magnifying glass to keep your lips shiny, smooth and ultra soft.
The lipsticks contain SPF 8 for protection. They also have a fragrance composed of: blackberry, raspberry, vanilla, violet, iris and rose. And they are available in 12 color combinations. For a list of colors and to see an instructional image,
1 – Sparkling Beige

Google Inc. (GOOG) been playing dirty with Android? That's the allegation raised
by some South Korean rivals. The smartphone and tablet OS may be dominating in sales, but it's also drawing
increasing antitrust scrutiny in both the U.S. and South Korea.
South Korea antitrust regulators' pending investigation of the Android
accusations heated up this week with authorities raiding Google's Seoul
offices, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
In South Korea, search portal firms NHN Corp. (SEO:035420) and Daum Communications
Corp. (KDQ:035720) have accused Google
of using their control of Android to block rival search portals on smartphones.
The companies do not accuse Google of overtly blocking their portals,
rather they say that Google's bundling of a search engine with Android and
making it labor intensive to "swap in" a different search amounts to
an anticompetitive tactic.
An NHN spokesperson commented, "It does not allow fair competition among
search engines if Android-based smartphone users come across Google Search
whenever they touch the search engine icon, whether they want it or not."
South Korea's Korean Fair Trade
Commission (KFTC), the counterpart of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, is tasked with
investigating these antitrust investigations.
Currently NHN controls 52 percent of South Korea's mobile search traffic, with
Google controlling 16 percent and Daum controlling approximately 15 percent.
Android plays a key role in the South Korean market with top tech
conglomerates Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (SEO 005930) and LG Electronics Inc. (SEO:066570) using Android as their
operating system platform of choice for tablets and smart phones.
Google promises to work with the KFTC to resolve the dispute. A
spokesperson comments, "We will work with the KFTC to address any
questions they may have about our business. Android is an open platform, and
carrier and OEM [original equipment manufacturer] partners are free to decide
which applications and services to include on their Android phones. We do not
require carriers or manufacturers to include Google Search or Google
applications on Android-powered devices."
This is the second time in just the last four months that South Korean police
have raided Google's offices. The prior raid came in May, for a separate issue
that Google claims was an innocent mistake.
Between 2006 and 2009 Google believes it "accidentally"
collected a large amount of fragments of traffic on open wireless
networks. It says the collection occurred due to a piece of test code
that was unwittingly incorporated into the Street View project -- Google's
fleet of internet-equipped cars that offer a ground-level view of streets for
mapping purposes.
In Europe Google has already been forced to hand data over to authorities.
And it faces further investigations
in Canada and in four U.S. states. In South Korea authorities
are probing the incident thoroughly, combing through data they seized from
Google's AdMob advertising service.
Google claims that it never used the collected data for advertising purposes,
but South Korean authorities' thorough examination of AdMob would indicate that
this might not have been the entire truth. Nonetheless, Google has yet to
face any official charges for the data collection in South Korea or elsewhere.
However, Google does face a broad antitrust probe in the U.S. and
similar antitrust probes in the EU and Asia. The company is also
facing a pending class action
lawsuit in the U.S. for the street view data collection and other
U.S. lawsuits filed by mobile service providers who claim Google bullied partners into
dropping their services.

Engineering Management
What is Engineering Management?
Engineering Management is the degree that "bridges the gap" between engineering and management and it is the degree that enables a graduate to work with and through people to get things done. Specifically, this degree provides graduates with both technical and managerial skills. The degree, in essence combines a typical engineering education (technical) with key elements of a typical management or business education (managerial).
Why Study?
Our degree is unique among typical engineering disciplines in that it combines traditional engineering course work with course work typically taken in pursuit of a business or management degree. What does that mean? In general it means exceptional starting and future salaries; exciting, challenging and rewarding career opportunities in a wide variety of industries and companies; and, more importantly, it means you will be choosing to study in a discipline that has a long history in pursuit of the betterment of society. When you choose to study Engineering Management, you are able to add the business, management and people side to the basic engineering equation. You will work with people, organizations, business cultures, systems integration and problem solving.
Where would I work after graduation?
Engineering Management graduates work in project engineering, plant engineering, information technology, sales engineering, engineering administration and many others. Well known companies who employ Engineering Management students include: Boeing, Ford, Hallmark Cards, Anheuser Busch, General Electric Sprint, IBM and American Express.
What does the Program Cover?
The MSE provides a holistic, systems view of the various disciplines in which students may concentrate. Systems methodologies usually account for such real-world complexities as uncertainty, constraints, multiple objectives, and the relationships among the various parts or subsystems that constitute the system. They are at the core of the three specialty areas.
Engineering Management Specialization
GEN 5101 Project Management or EEN 5265 Engineering Management and at least eight credits from the following:
EEN 5265 Engineering Management
GMGT 5120 World Class Operations & Supply Chain Management (2cr) GMGT 5140 Effective Managerial Communication (2cr)
GMGT 5150 Financial Measurement, Analysis and Reporting
GMGT 5160 Marketing Analysis and Decision Making

Romero focusing on positives amid mixed results
By Gregor Chisholm / MLB.com
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Ricky Romero knows there are plenty of skeptics out there who think he will never be as good as he once was.
The voices are hard to ignore, but it is something he has slowly learned to cope with. At least publicly, Romero said he was no longer interested in talking about what went wrong and would rather focus on what went right.
That's at least one of the reasons why Romero still appeared upbeat despite giving up three runs in three innings of work against the Tigers on Friday afternoon.
"I'm confident that I'm going to be back to the guy that everybody is used to seeing," said Romero, who has a 7.27 ERA this spring. "I'm very confident, and there are a lot of things that are positive about today, and that's what I'll stick to.
"It's a work in progress, I'm not hitting the panic button, I'm sure a lot of people are, but stay with me."
Romero's outing against Detroit wasn't exactly pretty. He walked two of the first three batters before giving up an RBI single to Victor Martinez in the 30-pitch frame.
The second and third innings were much better, despite a similar result on the scoreboard. In the second it was a solo home run by Jhonny Peralta, and in the third it was a leadoff double by Austin Jackson, which eventually led to the ugly pitching line.
But the pace and rhythm in which Romero pitched was vastly superior to how he started the game. Romero indicated that last year he might have focused on the first inning, when everything went wrong, but this Spring Training he is instead focusing on what he liked about the performance.
"The quality of pitches in the second and third inning," Romero said when asked what he liked best. "You take away that first inning, I felt like I worked down in the zone. Changeup, I threw some really good ones other than the first inning. Got some ground balls, got a strikeout, you take away those two walks, let the guys put the ball in play, I definitely have a chance to do a lot better."
Spring Training requires two very different approaches
LAKELAND, Fla. -- In some ways, Spring Training is a tale of the haves and have nots.
Players with guaranteed jobs have the luxury of being able to take their time and work on specific things in each outing. The results take a backseat to preparing for the year, and as long as they are ready to go by Opening Day, the numbers do not matter.
The same can't be said for players who find themselves needing to perform well to make the team. There is a definite balance between players' going out there with their best stuff and working on specific things that might make them better down the road.
"The guys that are on the team, they're still just working on their stuff, because results don't really matter," manager John Gibbons said. "The guys who are trying to make the team and trying to make a good impression, it's more about results.
"You'll start to see more of a game approach [soon], but guys are still working on different parts of their game, the guys who are established anyways."
Toronto is currently ranked seventh in Spring Training with a 4.58 staff ERA while also ranking seventh with 66 walks. The staff is mostly set in stone but still has a lot of candidates vying for two jobs in the bullpen.
Brett Cecil, Aaron Loup, Brad Lincoln and Jeremy Jeffress are the front-runners, but the list also includes the likes of J.A. Happ, Dave Bush, Neil Wagner, Ramon Ortiz and Justin Germano.
What makes evaluating that competition more difficult is that those pitchers are often throwing against Minor Leaguers. After starting pitchers come out of the game, position players usually follow relatively soon afterward.
"You'd want to see them against the best, but it's hard to do sometimes," Gibbons said. "It's starting to get to that point in Spring Training where the regulars are going to start playing a bit more in the next week or so, so it's a little bit different game.
"If it's a pitcher, you look at what he's doing with his pitches, not necessarily the results. Are his pitches crisp, sharp; is he hitting his spots? That kind of thing. That outweighs who he is facing against the end of the game that haven't established themselves either."
Lincoln nearing return to bullpen competition
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Right-hander Brad Lincoln is nearing a return to the mound following a brief absence with soreness in his right shoulder.
Toronto's right-hander has not appeared in a game since March 9, when he threw one scoreless inning against the Tigers.
"He was a little tender in the shoulder, but he shouldn't be too far off," manager John Gibbons said prior to Friday's 4-2 loss to Detroit. "In the next couple of days he'll be pitching."
Lincoln can ill afford to miss very much time considering he is competing for one of the final two spots in Toronto's bullpen. The 27-year-old had previously been attempting to stretch out as a starter, but that plan was abandoned in early March.
The Blue Jays also are considering Brett Cecil, Aaron Loup, Jeremy Jeffress and to a lesser extent J.A. Happ and Neil Wagner for the final two spots in the bullpen.
Lincoln could make a strong case for one of the jobs, but he has options remaining on his contract and could start the year at Triple-A Buffalo. The same cannot be said for Cecil and Jeffress, who both would have to clear waivers before being sent down.
In 24 games last season for the Blue Jays, Lincoln had a 5.65 ERA in 28 2/3 innings. His numbers in Pittsburgh were more favorable, as he posted an impressive 2.73 ERA and 60 strikeouts in 59 1/3 innings of work.

National Geographic's 2011 photo contest concluded recently, and so here is a look at the winners, as well as some honorable mentions. The publication received over 20,000 photo submissions, so we imagine that going through such a vast amount of images and whittling them down to select these must have been quite the process. It was all worth it as some of these are truly amazing captures.

United Arrows' Beauty & Youth label started 2012 off with a collaboration with Briefing on the New Balance 1700, and it turned out so well, they came back alone for a second round. The latest Beauty & Youth CM1700s keep things simple and classy like the first edition, this time sticking to the other mainstay in NB's established canon as grey suede and mesh give way to navy blue for the sequel. These go a step further, though, adding luxurious caramel leather down the middle for a tasty treat that hints at the ever-colorful footbeds we've come to expect from NB's Japanese collabs. These are coming up with a February 2013 release date and available for pre-order now HERE.

Never really noticed ash guards in ovens before, but now I'm seeing them in some of the ovens I photographed in Italy. This one is in Bologna at Michelemma...
Craig mentioned in an early post that you would probably have to leave it in there till it reached temp. Though the oven itself was at temp the wood wasn't and thats probably why there was a lot of smoke. I'm wondering if you left the torch in there while the wood was in or did you add the wood and take out the torch? Maybe if you kept both together it would help eliminate the smoke until you had a decent size pile of coals to aid in the smoke elimination. Also how dry is the wood? Try starting from the beginning with the torch and wood like in this video of Bill instead of using the torch to get the oven to temp then adding the wood .I'm sorry for all the trouble you're going through just to make a couple pizzas at home.
Flour: 1400 Caputo Pizzeria "00" (Datum Point)Water: 910 gr. (65%)Sea Salt: 41 gr. (2.93%)Fresh Yeast: 1.30 gr. (0.092%)Dough Mixer: Santos Fork MixerDuration of mixing & Kneading: 4 minutes & 16 secondsUsing the direct method of dough production: Water (75.4ᵒF) ➞ Salt ➞ Fresh Yeast ➞ Flour (68.9ᵒF) = Dough (74.6ᵒF) [Room Temp. 71ᵒF]Dough ball weight: 250 to 260 grams eachDuration of the initial fermentation: 2 hours at room temperature (70-71ᵒF)Duration of the final fermentation: 20 hours inside the marble chamber (65ᵒF)
Omid, I feel bad for your situation. After spending money on the oven and getting your hopes up, this is what you get. I can already feel the frustration. I would suggest, if time permits, that you fire up your oven late in the evening when everyone in your neighborhood is asleep. Even if you get the temp to about 600-700F then leave the coals inside the oven and close the door. The following morning when you are ready to bake, it will be much easier to light up the wood with minimal smoke (maybe for about 1-2 mins only). The venting on your oven is the main culprit since the opening looks small. I wish they had the vent opening to be more lateral than round. Marlon
Hi Omid. I have a similarly sized oven in the Forno Bravo Andiamo 70 and am afflicted with the same problem with smoke coming out of the front. I use a simple technique to minimize the problem. If your oven came with a door, try partially closing the oven. This allows the smoke to be funneled through the vent. It's a "there, I fixed it!" kinda fix.
Omid I'm sorry about your oven problems. I hope you can make your oven work tomorrow. Could you please make another video showing how you launch your pizzas on oven floor if your oven works? I really suck at it. I purchased a perforated aluminium pizza peel from gmetal. Too much air trapped under pizza when I use it. I find it more stickier than wooden peels. I wish you the best.
Nobody would complain about your smoke if you lived in Texas. Hint. Hint...
Really...grow a couple an get on with it, wherever.....
Would you just explode if you didn't comment on every post in this forum?
OmidI think I may have some thing for you to try..For the longest time I was having problems with the wood I was receiving... it was not seasoned properly and I was having a lot of problems with start ups ( and lots of smoke). I started to "kiln" dry my wood in the oven after every use. So I would put the "green" wood in the oven about an hour or two after I was done making my pizzas (the oven was usually around 400 degrees measured at the floor) and then use that kiln dried wood for subsequent firings whenever I wanted. The wood becomes supremely dry and combustible. I was having a party one weekend so I started a "primer fire" the evening before so that I could dry out some more wood for the party. I put the green wood in the oven ( after the coals were swept out) a little hotter than normal ( maybe 500). The next day I cracked the door open and the wood looked like big pieces of charcoal. The fire started very easy and very little smoke.Perhaps you can heat the oven with your cactus burner, put the wood in without lighting it, shut the door and let it sit for several hours. Then light your fire. I think you will find that this process will produce the least amount of smokeGood luck! Scot

DURANGO, Colo.—Fort Lewis College is reaching out to the Persian Gulf city-state of Dubai to build relationships with its small community of alumni there.
College president Dene Kay Thomas traveled to Dubai in late February to meet with about a dozen graduates. The event was hosted by Sheik Adel Aujan, a Fort Lewis graduate.
While in the region Thomas also visited the American University of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. Fort Lewis runs a student exchange program with that school.
The exotic locale underscores the extent to which things have changed for publicly funded colleges. Educators say they are increasingly turning to private donations and alumni networks because of the lack of reliable public financing.

The Beatles' entire catalog remains one of the most enduring groups of songs in popular culture. Their first single "Love Me Do," the song is still fun and vibrant 50 years after its original U.K. release. To celebrate the occasion, fans gathered in Liverpool's docks Friday afternoon to set a new world record for the most Beatles fans singing "Love Me Do" in a round.
Organized by the city's Beatles Story tourist attraction, the record setting sing-a-long drew in more than 1,500 participants from around the U.K. to crush the previous record of 897 people singing the song, according to The Telegraph. The "Love Me Do" record attempt was all captured on video, which you can watch go down in the Guinness World Record history books by clicking here.
In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the "Love Me Do" release date, let's take look back at the history of the song with a few fun facts!
1. Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney as teenagers, "Love Me Do" wasn't an instant hit on the charts when it was released in the U.K. in 1962. The single peaked at #17 on the U.K. charts, but fared much better in the U.S., shooting all the way to the top when it was released in 1964.
2. Two versions of "Love Me Do" were recorded by the group. In the first version, Ringo Starr is featured on drums, but in the 1962 re-recording, producer George Martin was unsure of his ability and enlisted session drummer Andy White instead. Poor Ringo was assigned to playing the tambourine on the beat in that take, which still remains the best known version of the song.
3. Up until the recording of "Love Me Do," Lennon had always sang lead vocals on songs, but after adding that notable harmonica part, a nervous McCartney had to take over the vocals on the spot. "Until that session John had done it," said McCartney in Barry Miles' Many Years From Now, Rolling Stone notes. "I didn't even know how to sing it … I can still hear the nervousness in my voice." According to the "The Ultimate Beatles Encyclopedia," Lennon also reportedly stole the harmonica heard in the song.
"Love Me Do," along with all of the other Beatles classics, will be released in remastered stereo form on vinyl on November 13.

The need for biodiversity conservation in Saudi Arabia has become a rising priority, where good practice and scientific knowledge is highly required. Building on a 20-year-partnership in protected areas management, the National Commission for Wildlife Conservation and Development (NCWCD) has extended the partnership with IUCN Regional Office for West Asia (ROWA). IUCN will provide technical support to NCWCD in the field of biodiversity conservation focusing on effective implementation of the Convention in Biological Diversity (CBD) obligations.
In view of the fact that the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of the utilization of genetic resources is one of the objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), IUCN ROWA has collaborated with the IUCN Environmental Law Center to develop a national Saudi strategy on access and benefit sharing in relation to genetic resources. Through this collaboration, a strategic plan for the collection and documentation of biodiversity related traditional knowledge and practices will also be developed. This activity is part of the overall biodiversity action plan 2009 that has been set by both parties.
As part of the 2009 activities, IUCN is providing technical assistance to NCWCD by developing an Invasive Alien Species Strategy and an Assessment of Potential Climate Change in Saudi Arabia. IUCN is also will help in supervising the drafting process of the National Biodiversity Strategy Action Plans (NBSAP) for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, basically to oversee the whole process of preparation for outlines, compilation and editing of the NBSAP text.

Clarkson University Students Participate in the Adirondack Youth Climate Summit
[A photograph for media use is available at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/photos/summit.jpg ]
The recent Adirondack Youth Climate Summit at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake, N.Y., provided an opportunity for four Clarkson University students to increase their awareness of climate change causes, solutions and implications, especially as it relates to the Clarkson campus.
The summit drew high school and college students from around the region to discuss and plan ways to incorporate energy efficiency, recycling and local food resources into their lives and campuses.
Attending the summit were J. Sawyer Sutton, a senior communication major from Stowe, Vt.; Collin R. Yarbrough, a junior engineering & management major from Dallas, Texas; Kimberly M. Villemaire, a sophomore interdisciplinary social sciences major from Richmond, Vt.; and Ryan M. Hurilla, a freshman electrical engineering major from Port Leyden, N.Y.
The students were joined by faculty members Susan E. Powers, associate dean of engineering; Alan Rossner, director of environmental science & policy; and Roy Wilson, Jr., energy manager.
The Clarkson team developed a plan to quantify the University's greenhouse gas emissions to enable realistic and meaningful goals for the campus to reduce its impact.
The students plan to work through their campus clubs, including ECO, Synergy, and the New York Water Environment Association (NYWEA) throughout the year to institute change on campus.
The summit was organized by the Adirondack Climate and Energy Action Plan (ADKCAP) group and hosted by the Wild Center. Clarkson University was among the sponsors of the event through the direct sponsorship of travel and registration fees for five area high schools.
Clarkson University launches leaders into the global economy. One in six alumni already leads as a CEO, VP or equivalent senior executive of a company. Located just outside the Adirondack Park in Potsdam, N.Y., Clarkson is a nationally recognized research university for undergraduates with select graduate programs in signature areas of academic excellence directed toward the world's pressing issues. Through 50 rigorous programs of study in engineering, business, arts, sciences and health sciences, the entire learning-living community spans boundaries across disciplines, nations and cultures to build powers of observation, challenge the status quo, and connect discovery and engineering innovation with enterprise.

Major League Baseball and ESPN have agreed to move the September 27th Boston Red Sox-New York Yankees game in New York from 8:00 p.m. (EDT) to 1:00 p.m. (EDT) so as to not conflict with Yom Kippur.
"I am pleased we were able to resolve this sensitive issue that impacted many baseball fans and are able to move the game at Yankee Stadium to 1:00 p.m. (ET)," said Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig. "I want to thank our broadcast partners at ESPN, especially ESPN President George Bodenheimer, for their support and for working with us to adjust the timing of this game which has allowed us to solve this conflict."
The game will be shown exclusively on ESPN.

I happen to know that geeksugar has a weakness for cheesecake. She just can't refuse a slice, doesn't matter when or where, if a piece of cheesecake somehow lands in her lap she devours it. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm kind of the same way. Seriously, who doesn't LOVE cheesecake with its smooth creaminess and a crumbly graham cracker crust? It's pretty easy to make (as long as you have a spring form pan). To give my vanilla cheesecake recipe a try,
Vanilla Cheesecake
7 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups graham-cracker crumbs(about 11 crackers)
1 vanilla bean
2 lbs. cream cheese, thoroughly softened
1 1/4 cups sugar
4 eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sour cream
2 1/2 Tbsp. vanilla extract (use Tahitian vanilla extract, if possible)
- Heat oven to 350°.
- In a small saucepan, melt 5 tablespoons butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine graham-cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir in melted butter until crumbs are moist.
- Pour mixture into a 9-inch spring form pan; press firmly, forming a 1/2-inch crust up sides of pan. Bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack.
- Reduce temperature to 275°.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Slowly add remaining cup sugar. Scrape in vanilla seeds; reserve pod for another use. Beat until well combined, about 3 minutes.
- Drizzle in eggs, one at a time, stopping occasionally to scrape down bowl.
- Beat in sour cream and salt.
- Pour batter into crust.
- Bake cheesecake until sides have set but center appears soft, about 1 hour 45 minutes.
- Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool. Run a paring knife around the outside of crust, loosening it from pan.
- When cool, cover tightly with plastic; let set at least 4 hours or overnight.
Makes 1 nine-inch cake.

Identity Management
The Department of Homeland Security is about to embark on an ambitious project to add biometrics to its smart card identification system. Other government efforts have demonstrated that such projects can go horribly awry, but it also has the potential to profoundly change DHS for the better.
The exact path the agency takes, analysts say, depends on how well it prepares itself and possibly on how well it incorporates some new technical guidance.
In May, DHS issued a request for proposals to add facial, fingerprint and iris recognition capabilities to its ID system as part of a $102 million upgrade. The agency is seeking a new contractor to take over the ID management project currently overseen by XTec and establish a new biometric-based card system that complies with Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12). The contractor would replace 161,924 personal identity verification (PIV) cards by the end of 2013 and another 116,172 in 2014, DHS officials said.
According to the agency, the winning contractor would also install enrollment and issuance stations at as many as 300 DHS locations to manage at least 300,000 PIV cards. Those locations could include sites outside the United States.
Identity management heads for the cloud
Accenture Federal Services, Booz Allen Hamilton, Deloitte, General Dynamics Information Technology, Northrop Grumman, Science Applications International Corp. and Unisys have all expressed interest in the project.
Biometric challenges
Many agencies are meeting HSPD-12's requirement for physical and logical access to their buildings and computer systems, but few have been adequately incorporating biometric capabilities. DHS' project takes that bull by the horns, but not without risk.
Heidi Shey, an analyst at Forrester Research who covers security and risk markets, said the relatively short timeline for completing such a large project could lead to big problems if sound planning is not done upfront. For the agency to avoid trouble down the road, it should be working on — or, better yet, completing — programs that establish enrollment processes for employees, define what kind of information each employee needs embedded in his or her card, and create backup plans in case of failure, she added.
DHS is hard at work on that kind of due diligence, said Jim Williams, senior vice president of business development at Daon. The software and professional services company is helping India's government develop and manage a national biometric-based ID program. The project, which aims to issue identity cards for roughly 1.4 billion people, enrolls about 1 million people a day, taking fingerprint, iris and facial images from each. Those images are stored in a massive central database.
Williams said that although DHS is doing a great job in setting up the procurement for its project, it faces some challenges, primarily related to ensuring that the ID card and management system comply with a 2011 Office of Management and Budget directive that seeks to further the implementation of HSPD-12 by making PIV credentials the common means of authentication for access to agency facilities, networks and information systems.
Furthermore, Williams said coordinating numerous biometric identifiers can be complicated, and information storage for such a huge project is potentially costly.
Today's smart cards might look like the laminated flash passes of old, but they now go far beyond name, address and photo. Onboard computer chips can carry complete identification records and other documentation, including digitized fingerprint or facial recognition images.
Cards can incorporate not only bar codes, RFID tags and magnetic stripes, but also have onboard data processors to segment and store information, even allowing for automatic remote information updates. These cards can take up to 30 steps to construct, print and laminate.
He added that another big challenge for DHS is keeping its systems efficient and up-to-date. Other large identity management programs use increasingly effective commercial software to do that, and DHS could take the same approach. But Williams added that avoiding proprietary solutions and other forms of technology lock-in is essential for DHS.
A model for other agencies
DHS' plans got a boost from the National Institute of Standards and Technology in mid-July. After a long delay, NIST released specifications for iris recognition capabilities under Federal Information Processing Standard 201-2 — the latest installment in a series of NIST publications that provide technical guidance for complying with HSPD-12.
By consulting the FIPS 201-2 publication, federal agencies can implement standards-based biometrics and identity management solutions that are accurate and interoperable, said Charles Romine, director of NIST's Information Technology Laboratory.
The recently released guidelines include specifications for federal agencies to use iris recognition as an optional add-on for authentication of their PIV cardholders, Romine said. The publication also describes technical acquisition and formatting specifications for the biometric credentials of the PIV system, including the PIV card itself. The specialized format requirements for iris images are based on the international standard for compact storage, he added.
DHS declined to provide specifics about its plans for the new identity management system, but agency spokeswoman Marsha Catron said DHS continues to implement HSPD-12, which works to improve the secure, reliable identification of federal employees and contractors.
If DHS is successful in implementing its biometric ID program, it could provide a model for other agencies. For instance, Williams said the national wireless communications network for first responders that the National Telecommunications and Information Administration is spearheading will need some kind of identifier for users to access it.
He added that because DHS operations touch such a wide range of markets — including border security, air travel and emergency response — it is a trend-setter for organizations at all levels of government and in industry.
DHS is "moving to a new world," Williams said.
TWIC: A cautionary tale?
The Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC), an ambitious biometric ID card project overseen by the Transportation Security Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard, has been underway for more than a decade. Congressional overseers and critics say its history shows how important upfront management can be for large biometric ID installations.
The program began in 2003 as part of an effort to protect ports and transportation infrastructure in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks by establishing a national, tamper-proof secure ID for transportation workers.
Millions of truckers and port workers pay $65 to $135 to get TWIC cards, which numerous critics on Capitol Hill have called nothing more than a glorified "flash pass" because their more advanced biometric and data storage capabilities have not lived up to their billing.
The card has a computer chip that stores the holder's information and biometric data, usually a fingerprint. The chip is read by inserting it into a reader or holding it near a contactless reader. The card also has a magnetic stripe like the ones on credit cards and a linear bar code as alternative reading methods.
However, over the years, the program has been hobbled by faulty card readers, inadequate fingerprint data collection, expiration-date errors, dark photos and other problems. A recent study by the Government Accountability Office said the results of a test of TWIC card readers "were incomplete, inaccurate and unreliable for informing Congress and for developing a regulation (rule) about the readers.... These issues call into question the program's premise and effectiveness in enhancing security."
At a hearing convened by the House Homeland Security Committee's Border and Maritime Security Subcommittee in June, Chairwoman Candice Miller (R-Mich.) and others questioned whether the TWIC program was dying or already dead.
Rear Adm. Joseph Servidio, assistant commandant for prevention policy at the Coast Guard, said TWIC was not dead. "We will be able to justify the technology as it matures," he said. "The systems are more robust now."
"Are we where we need to be?" Servidio asked rhetorically. "No, sir, but I think we are moving in that direction."

It's interesting to note that while Daon warns here about the difficulty involved in fielding biometric systems, they played a major role in implementing the TWIC program.
All this money so that we can rely on a database somewhere to validate that the card belongs to the person who has it? What they tend to ignore is that whatever a team can come up with, another team somewhere else can defeat. Just look at the CAC card - how many years ago did the Chinese crack that 'uncrackable' system?Granted, as long as there are people (including ones in our government) who wish to control others or to destroy what they have, we need something. But so far (including this article), all I see is making it harder for people who just want to get on with a life being the ones affected, the bad guys just get a workaround and go on with what they want to do while the rest of us are fumbling around with the 'security' system.(Oh, and I do not like the thought of several to many times a day having a bright light in my eye, the eye was not designed for that abuse.)
Placing too much trust into smartcards can add risk. Multi-factor authenciation *also* means the remote network must validate each factor.. right now DoD smartcard only authenticate one factor, the PKI cert presented from the smartcard. If biometrics AND a PIN is required to use / release the PKI cert in the card, its likely the system will still only have single-factor validation (authentication).

THE expression, "nice day for a white wedding" certainly applied to Tim Hynes and Jane Pearson's big day.
The Tamworth couple had planned an idyllic beach wedding in Coffs Harbour, but Mother Nature had other ideas.
"We really wanted a beach wedding but I kept checking the forecast and the rain just wasn't letting up," Jane said.
"We had the ceremony indoors at Aanuka but it was too wet for outdoor photographs."
Thinking on his feet, a friend of the couple contacted the Big Banana Ice Rink and organised a private hire for an hour.
"Half the bridesmaids had never been on the ice and neither had Tim but we gave it a go and had a lot of fun.
"I ended up trashing my dress but it was worth it, we certainly had a different wedding day, something we can laugh about now."
Tim and Jane honeymooned in Bali - where they enjoyed plenty of sunshine.

SNOW HILL – Confusion reigned Tuesday afternoon when the Worcester County Commissioners were told they should confirm their vote to layoff 11 people and consolidate three county departments into one, with one previous supporter of the move emphatically changing her mind.
During the County Commissioners' regular meeting, a visibly irritated Sonny Bloxom, Worcester County attorney, instructed the commissioners to reaffirm the vote they took in a closed session the previous week on the elimination of 11 positions and the consolidation of three departments into one.
"All you're doing is re-confirming the action you took in closed session," said Bloxom.
"What if you've changed your mind?" asked County Commissioner President Louise Gulyas, who voted for the consolidation and layoffs last week, along with Commissioner Bud Church, who made the motion, Commissioner Bobby Cowger and Commissioner Jim Purnell.
"We did what we did," said Commissioner Judy Boggs, who voted against the consolidation and layoffs, along with Commissioners Linda Busick and Virgil Shockley.
However, she along with Church, Cowger and Purnell voted to confirm the vote with Shockley, Gulyas and Busick voting against.
The vote was simply to certify to the public that the May 26 vote had been taken, Bloxom emphasized. It was not a re-take of last week's vote.
The closed session vote has become the focus of controversy since last week. Assateague Coastal Trust (ACT), citing concerns over the legality of the discussion and vote on consolidating county departments, plans to file a formal complaint with Maryland's Open Meetings Compliance Board.
Kathy Phillips, Coastkeeper and executive director of ACT, has said she is worried that the elimination of those inspectors and the one planning employee would streamline permits for developers and reduce county oversight of environmental protection regulations.
According to Bloxom, people don't understand that the decision was made in closed session because re-organization of staff falls under the commissioners' administrative responsibilities.
Bloxom acknowledged that the commissioners were not legally required to discuss the consolidation of the three departments in private. "You could have done it in open session if you wanted to," said Bloxom.
Once the discussion concerns the elimination of jobs, and employee names are discussed, the matter must be done in a closed session. If the county had hundreds of employees, the discussion eliminating certain positions would not reveal the actual employee in question, but the county staff is too small for people not to be able to guess whose job would be eliminated, Bloxom said.
At this point in the discussion, which was not scheduled on the agenda, Church jumped in with a motion to adjourn. There was no second and the discussion continued without pause.
"It's important you do this from a legal standpoint so nobody could raise a stink," said Bloxom.
The confirming vote had been taken, Church pointed out. The reasoning behind the confirming vote was not clear, said Busick.
"I don't get it," said Gulyas.
"The first vote you took stands," said Bloxom, referring to the closed session vote.
While the vote was reconfirmed, none of the discussion points from the closed session were reiterated.
"I'll make a motion we undo what we did," said Busick.
The decision last week, she said, was not based on factual information. "It was rushed through," she said.
No one waited to see if the motion was seconded, with conversation continuing unabated.
Administrator Gerry Mason suggested the commissioners could rescind their closed session vote.
Only the commissioners who voted for the motion could bring it back for another vote, Church reminded his colleagues. Since Gulyas, the only 'yes' vote to change her mind, is president of the commissioners, she cannot make a motion, he said.
"Resign, Louise," said Busick.
Church once again made a quick motion to adjourn. No second emerged.
"I want to rehire these people," said Busick.
"If you could justify work for them, they're doing one-third of the work," said Cowger.
"This wasn't done fairly. It wasn't done across the board. Three departments were targeted," said Busick.
At this point, Gulyas banged the gavel for order.
"I admire what you're trying to do," Gulyas said to Busick. "I don't know what our options are right now."
Gulyas said she would like to look at rehiring the eliminated employees.
Shockley suggested that the commissioners make a commitment to help the laid off workers find employment with the county if a job matching their skills opened up. At this point, some county employees still have the option of taking early retirement, and there could be more takers than have already agreed to it. If qualified, those people should get first choice, he said.
Cowger pointed out that there's a hiring freeze.
Shockley later pointed out that some vacated positions would have to filled.
Gulyas suggested that a work session on the consolidation and layoffs could be held in the future.

Class at the Christian Center in Pittsfield teaches healthy cooking
PITTSFIELD -- Everyone put something into the pot.
Chet Gallup cut up a carrot. Brenda Powell diced tomatoes. Doug Frye added chicken and spices -- including an extra heap of cayenne pepper.
In less than 30 minutes, a colorful, savory-smelling soup was cooked and shared among a small group of students taking a new class at the Christian Center.
With the help of a city grant, The Nutrition Center has partnered with the Christian Center to offer a new six-week series of healthy cooking classes for adults that meets each Thursday at 1 p.m.
The free program is led in the Christian Center kitchen by Morgan Kulchinsky, a designated "culinary coach" for the Nutrition Center.
Near the conclusion of a recent class on making immune system-supporting dinners, such as chicken soup, for the cold and flu season, William Monet gave Kulchinsky a heartfelt thanks.
"I just wanted to say I'm so thankful and grateful that they're doing this and that you're here," Monet told Kulchinsky.
The Vietnam veteran was diagnosed as a diabetic in 2003 and said he's since had to change his whole lifestyle, from his diet to his outlook on life.
"This is just enforcing my education of diabetes and what I have to do," Monet said.
He also noted that even at an adult age, a lot of people never learn to cook in life.
Kulchinsky presents the class in a casual manner, which participants seem to enjoy.
Her mention of how colorful foods are packed with the most nutrients, the conversation turned into a brainstorm of vegetables in each color category -- yellow (corn, squash, peppers); green (collard greens, peas, beans); and purple (onions, turnip, eggplant).
Donnie Girard said he decided to show up to the class just because he wanted to learn to make chicken soup.
"I've always wanted to try, but I didn't know how," he said.
But in the hour, he learned not only a new recipe, but about the differences between whole and processed foods, and that he might be trim because he's a fast metabolizer.
Kulchinsky said the grant given to The Nutrition Center is designed to cover classes at two sites, and that the center is currently looking for another place in Pittsfield to hold the program.
In the meantime, William Monet said he'll keep with the program and told Kulchinsky to as well.
"I want you to continue to come back because people need it," he said.
If you go
What: Healthy cooking with The Nutrition Center. The next class theme will be "Heart Healthy Holidays." Classes are free and open to the public. Registration is requested.
When: Thursdays at 1 p.m. Remaining classes are today, Jan. 3, Jan. 10 and Jan 17.
Where: The Christian Center, 193 Robbins Ave., Pittsfield.
Info: For more information, call the Christian Center at (413) 443-2828 or The Nutrition Center at (413) 429-8110.

EAG show organizer Karen Cooke explains: "The 2014 show will take place 21-23 January at ExCel London Exhibition Centre and preparations are already at an advanced stage. The launch of the new site has been timed to coincide with the opening of registration, so we are expecting a large number of visits from day one."
The original EAG International site was always a reputable source for detailed information, but the new site represents a shift toward a more dynamic initiative.
With a fresh new look and greater clarity, www.eagexpo.com has been designed for speed and ease of navigation with key areas immediately visible. As before, visitors and exhibitors can register for the show, reserve stand space and arrange their accommodation at the site.
The returning guest will however also be rewarded with access to the latest news regarding the show, exhibitor information including updated floor plans, details of events around the show plus direct access to a host of industry online news publications and trade supporters.

Ontario Superior Court Judge Ann Tucker rejected a challenge by a businessman to delay the project. Tucker's ruling on Tuesday, March 18, 2014, in part noted the plaintiff "is not a ratepayer of this region." Jay Aissa's challenge objected to the C$1.9 billion (US$1.7 billion) cost of the 11.8-mile LRT project, whose construction earlier this month was awarded to the Grand Linq consortium.
Aissa said the Waterloo Region was in violation of the Ontario Planning Act and failed to provide an environmental assessment for LRT's implementation.
Attorneys for Waterloo Region told local media the suit against the LRT line, now dubbed Ion, was "frivolous."
Last August Bombardier Transportation announced it would supply 14 FLEXITY Freedom light rail vehicles to serve the Ion system, initially serving the cities of Kitchener and Waterloo, Ont.

A monstrously powerful set of features for killer sound and looks.
The Warbeast NJ Deluxe electric guitar from B.C. Rich boasts an ebony fretboard and full pearl binding on the headstock, neck and body. Other deluxe features include neck-through constuction, EMG pickups and a Floyd Rose Original Tremolo.
Neck-Through Construction
B.C. Rich is known as one of the pioneers in neck through construction. They use it on many of their guitars, because it provides the best possible sustain, resonance, comfort and access to higher frets. Neck-through has long been considered the premium construction method for high-end guitars. This construction starts with a long piece (or pieces) of premium North American maple. That piece runs from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the opposite end of the guitar. This means that the headstock, fingerboard, pickups and bridge all are mounted to this single sound foundation. Sonically it is a difference you can hear. The neck-through construction also allows more of the body and neck to be cut away at the neck joint, which provides comfort no bolt-on or set-neck could offer. You will find the neck through feature on all top of the line B.C. Rich models.
EMG-81 (bridge position)
The EMG-81 is a high output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. The 81 is at its best for high volume overdrive and amps with a master volume. Whether you're playing power rock and roll, or overdriving your amp, there's a razor sharp attack, and incredible sustain for brilliant soloing. If you're looking for exceptional qualities in a rock pickup, the EMG-81 is the one.
EMG-85 (neck position)
Although the EMG-85 has more measurable output than the 81, its frequency response and string interface are different. The 85 uses two Alnico magnet loaded coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy low end and a fatter top end. Because of a more natural tone, it works great as a rhythm and blues pickup because it has loads of output but isn't muddy.
Flat Top
Some of the B.C Rich shapes are offered with a flat top. The flat top styling gives a bold and pristine look to the edge of the instrument's shape. Usually when the flat top feature is used, B.C. Rich adds a stripe of single or multi-ply binding around the edge in a complementary color. The binding on a flat top finishes off the edge cleanly and gives a sleek and clean look to the guitar.
The Rise of The Warbeast
What do you get when a ruthless Warlock picks a vile Beast to bear its spawn? A Warbeast of course! The twisted minds at B.C. Rich combined the ultra-in-your-face upper and lower horns from the Beast with the more comfortable rear of a Warlock - there's a joke in there somewhere... The Warbeast however, is not joking! Ripping the heads off of lesser axes - the Warbeast is on the prowl.

Comments about B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warbeast Electric Guitar:
The paint job on this guitar sucked. It was half brown where someone did not finish painting it. It was so obvious there is no way this guitar was shipped to my home without someone noticing the obvious flaw.
Comments about B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warbeast Electric Guitar:
This guitar is definitely made for heavy metal and will stand out in the crowd while drawing attention. You wouldn't really bring this type of guitar to your Church choir on Sundays or play country music around a campfire with it, but it does turn heads and gets respect from others!
This is my first BC Rich guitar and I am really impressed with it. Actually it was the Warlock guitar that initially attracted my attention after seeing so many metal band play with it on stage. But when I found out about the Warbeast, I like the body style and look of the guitar even more.
The only thing that I don't like about this guitar is the sharp edge protruding from the botttom front part of the body where it sits on your lap (just below the neck pickup). If you have thin thighs, then the groove would fit right it when you play sitting down. But for those who have thicker thighs, then you are going to feel this edge dig right into your inner thigh. I wish that this was a bit wider with a smoother edge.
But even without using any distortion pedal, the guitar sounds pretty good played clean too!
Well, no need to explain all the features here as you can found out on BC Rich's website. But I really like the feel of the neck and fretboard. The guitar i/m/o feels lighter than other guitars and wonder if it was chambered inside (it's not but it feels like it). Really like the tuners, EMG pups and the Floyd Rose tremolo bar although I am more of a Kahler tremolo system guy. The volume, 3 way switch and tone knobs are placed just about right for me. The axe could use an EMG SPC to fatten the tone up a bit, but you can modify the guitar yourself which I am thinking of doing.
Great quality wood, great sustain and obviously a great marriage of EMG 81/85 pickups combo!! I really like the headstock as it looks like some kind of trident spear to poke at people who get in your way on stage!!!
I would like to see some kind of fretboard position markers such as lighting bolts or skull designs on the wood itself.
I think a guitar of this nature is priced about right. I used a coupon on this order.
Comments about B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warbeast Electric Guitar:
ok, im gonna put a solid thorough review here so be ready to read. to start off, the mahogany wood is excellent wood as you may know, and the emg 81 is a great pickup for any kind of rock or metal with sustain for days. the grover tuners are SUPERB and its a shame theyre not on a nutless fretboard because theyre a pure pleasure to use. best tuners EVER. the original floyd rose is as good as it gets but might need so adjusting when you get it if you play on anything bigger or smaller than 10s or 11s due to minimal rattle. no biggie though. i didnt rate thr quality very high because mine had some noticable flaws after the fretboard clamps where the pearl binding is but im not fretting it much. and as for the ebony fretboard. MAGNIFICENT. very high grade rich, dense ebony. as good as it gets for this price. unlike rosewood and cheaper quality ebony boards, this isnt even noticable when the strings rub the board. the action was medium low when i got it, which is fine because i like the added tone from high action

Comments about B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warbeast Electric Guitar:
I've had this guitar a few months now. It has the sustain and tone you can expect from a neck through B.C. Rich guitar. The neck has a nice feel to it. Not too thick or thin. Be prepared to do a complete set up on this guitar when you recieve it. It is set up for around 9-10 gauge strings, and if you play tuned below E then save yourself some time and set it up when you get it. Pick ups and all. The factory strings sent on this guitar are garbage too. So be prepared to take them off and restring it first thing. Otherwise you will do like I did. Plug it in and think it sounds like crap. After the set up and restringing this guitar is exactly what you would want it to be. Very deep tone, and of course the EMG pick ups make the Warbeast a force to be reckoned with! If you play any type of metal this guitar will do the job nicely. From power/prog to death metal...and the price is the best deal(I shopped around).
Comments about B.C. Rich NJ Deluxe Warbeast Electric Guitar:
I just got this guitar out of the box and plugged it up to a Vox VT50. This thing is set up perfect for me...low action and I have no problem hitting awesome pinched harmonics. The looks are intimadating to say the least. The EMG's growl and I have sustain for days. If you can ...it's worth the money. It does hurt you a little if your sitting...so stand and give this warbeast a little respect!

State's congressmen turn out in favor of debt-ceiling compromise
LITTLE ROCK (AP) - Members of Arkansas' congressional delegation joined the majority Monday in voting for a deficit-reduction agreement between the White House and congressional leaders that would allow the nation's debt ceiling to be raised.
U.S. Reps. Rick Crawford, Tim Griffin and Steve Womack, all Republicans, and Rep. Mike Ross, a Democrat, were among the 269 House members who voted for the compromise that was reached Sunday night. There were 161 members who voted against it.
The compromise plan would combine a record increase in the government's borrowing limit with the promise of more than $2 trillion in spending cuts.
"The longest journey begins with that all-important first step, and the solution approved today in both chambers is a major step toward fiscal sanity in our country," Womack said in a written statement Monday.
Griffin and Crawford both said in statements that the measure isn't perfect, but noted that it doesn't contain any tax increases and calls for a vote on a balanced budget amendment. Ross called it "a step in the right direction."
The Senate is scheduled to take up the proposal today, and spokesmen for Arkansas' two U.S. senators - Republican John Boozman and Democrat Mark Pryor - said they're likely to support the agreement, which is aimed at averting an unprecedented federal default.
Pryor deemed the proposal a practical solution.
"We started with harmful, partisan plans and advanced to an agreement on a bipartisan, practical solution. While not perfect, I plan to vote for this bill," Pryor said in a statement.

Chopper that crashed in NY river too heavy
A helicopter that crashed into the East River off New York City during a sightseeing tour last year, killing an Australian resident and her New Zealand partner, was carrying too much weight, according to a federal report.
The National Transportation Safety Board report, released on Thursday, doesn't conclude what caused the crash on October 5 last year. A determination was expected in about two months.
But the report said the Bell 206 helicopter had a capacity of 1450 kilograms. The estimated weight at takeoff, including all five passengers and fuel, was 1460 kilograms, the report said.
Pilot Paul Dudley reported that he asked people for their weights and calculated that they would not be too heavy, according to the report, but the surviving passenger said the pilot did not ask.
The passengers were friends of the pilot's family. Paul and Harriet Nicholson, a British couple who live in Portugal; the wife's daughter, Sonia Marra, also British, and the daughter's partner, Helen Tamaki, a citizen of New Zealand. The daughter and her partner were living in Sydney.
British-born Sonia Marra died at the scene. British-born Harriet Nicholson and New Zealander Helen Tamaki died later.
Dudley told the NTSB the nose of the helicopter swung unexpectedly to the left as he was taking off. When he tried to turn right, the aircraft suddenly went out of control and hit the river.
The surviving passenger told federal investigators that the chopper's nose was pointed down at takeoff. "The helicopter then began moving 'erratically', the pilot made an exclamation similar to 'oops' and the passenger then 'knew something wasn't quite right'," according to the report.
The helicopter had been inspected two days before the crash and had no problems. An examination after it was pulled from the water showed no major engine malfunctions. A drug and alcohol test for Dudley came back negative.
Dudley was an experienced pilot with more than 2287 hours of flight experience. On April 21, 2011, he failed part of his commercial pilot certificate test. He was re-examined on takeoff, landing and go-arounds three days later and passed, according to the report.

BOSTON — Left wing Chris Kunitz knew his name had been bandied about in rumors, but he didn't really expect to be involved in any dealings the Ducks might do before Wednesday's NHL trade deadline.
"I'm a little shocked," Kunitz said Thursday morning via telephone after the Ducks traded he and junior prospect Eric Tangradi to the Pittsburgh Penguins for defenseman Ryan Whitney.
"I knew from the situation that we're all in, both trying to make the playoffs, just the way it is with the salary cap and space, I knew that was obviously factored in there, but yeah, I'm definitely shocked," Kunitz said.
Coach Randy Carlyle pulled Kunitz off the ice during the club's optional morning skate as the Ducks prepared for Thursday night's game against the Boston Bruins at TD Banknorth Garden. David McNab, Ducks senior vice president of hockey operations, was on the phone, and delivered the news.
With the Penguins set to open a road swing Thursday against the Chicago Blackhawks, Kunitz was preparing for an afternoon flight to Chicago.
"It's going to be tough now, but hopefully it will be something that will work in the future," Kunitz said. "I'm definitely excited to see some of their centermen and young players. You have to wait and see when you talk to the coach."
Speculation is that Pittsburgh wants Kunitz to skate on a line with superstar center Sidney Crosby. That decision will be up to interim Penguins coach Dan Bylsma. He and Kunitz were Ducks teammates in 2003-04, and Bylsma was an assistant coach with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks of the American League when Kunitz played there during the 2004-05 NHL lockout.
Minus Kunitz, and with left wing Travis Moen unavailable because he was in Orange County with his wife, Amy, who delivered a son Tuesday night, the Ducks will be one forward short against the Bruins. Defenseman Steve Montador has moved up to play the wing in the past. It was still not known whether Whitney, a Boston-area native, would arrive in time to play against the Bruins.
Center Ryan Getzlaf, who suffered a broken nose in Tuesday's 3-2, road victory over the Buffalo Sabres, took part in the morning skate wearing a face shield and is expected to face Boston.
Whitney, 26, is signed for four more seasons, with an annual salary-cap hit of $4 million. Kunitz is signed for three more seasons, at an average of $3.725 million per year.
Tangradi, 20, was among the Ducks' top forward prospects. A second-round selection in the 2007 NHL entry draft, he has 38 goals and 87 points in 52 games for the Belleville Bulls of the junior Ontario Hockey League this season.

Standing Surgery in Draft Horses Discussed at AAEP
A Table Topic session on standing surgery in draft horses attracted about 65 for the 1½-hour session at the 2009 American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) convention, held Dec. 5-9 in Las Vegas, Nev. The attendees included a wide spectrum of practitioners, from recent graduates to those with a wealth of practice experience over many years of professional life. It was an excellent exchange of ideas, experience, and considerations of standing surgery in draft horses as well as comments related to application in light horses.
Major discussions involved patient selection, diagnosis, preparation, sedation, and aftercare of the standing surgical patient. Discussion included observations of the need to have a tractable patient to begin with, surgical preparation of a large surgical area to reduce risks of contamination during surgery, pre-surgical antibiotic therapy, sedation/anesthesia options related to presently available drugs, and surgical approaches. Especially stressed was the importance of all possible safety precautions being taken for the patient, doctor, and technicians.
Intra-operative problems were discussed related to evacuation of intraluminal gases to provide increased comfort for the patient as well as provide greater opportunity to correct anatomical displacements that might be present. Intra-abdominal analgesia was also stressed via the direct application of local anesthetics to anatomical structures within the abdomen. Actual physical exploration and manipulation of intestinal contents was also discussed, and those conditions in which correction was feasible were discussed in detail.
Postoperative care and complications were addressed, including incisional complications, or preventive measures taken to avoid those complications. Placement of incisional drains was discussed, as were methods utilized in approaching solutions to these complications.
Facilitators hoped to discuss some of the many standing procedures that can safely be considered in standing draft horse surgery, but time was unavailable to pursue those discussions due to the interest in the above discussion.
This Table Topic was facilitated by Grant Myhre, DVM, and Dallas Goble, DVM, Dipl. ACVS, who wrote this article.

Topic: Why IKEA why?
http://stoneyroads.com/record-collector … y-shelves/
Looks like I have to be extra careful next time I move house. Can't go buying a new shelf for 30 € anymore if I break the one I use as a DJ stand now.
Those are mint, cost next to nothing, and are perfect for records, as long as you don't put too much records in them.
