Firebug Features: 1.4 Script DebuggingWednesday, November 26th, 2008
Here's peek at new features in 1.4 as of a7.
Sticky debugger controls. When you hit a breakpoint in Firebug the Script panel comes to the top and these controls become active. But if you change to the Console or Net panels, get deep in debugging, its easy to forget you are stopped. In 1.4 these controls will show up in every panel while they are active.
Case-insensitive search. For source searches, you can type all lower case and the search will be case-insensitive or if you used mixed case the search will require case matching.
Break on next. When you are not stopped in the debugger but want to break on the next Javascript function, click the pause button. It will arm itself and flash until some Javascript runs. This could be a button click, AJAX callback, or page load. Still experimental as of a7.
Three invisible features:
- Avoid scroll on single step. Makes the UI less bouncy
- Stay on debugger. Internal control to reduce exotic Firebug bugs and improve performance
- Avoid MD5 on eval(). If you don't set breakpoints in eval() code, you don't pay to hash the buffers.
This last feature should make Firefox faster when you are using Firebug but not breaking in eval() code.
(I prefer follow ups on the Firebug newsgroup)

Like most: Thank you Terry for a dream come true! We are from Montreal and after selling our pop-up, my husband and I were looking for something that would allow us to have the family around on summer weekends. Our pop-up could sleep about 8, so we needed something at least equivalent. My husband found the General RV website. Because of the great prices they have, we opted for a Tioga Ranger Class ...

Ok, Might as Well Start Writing Again
Then, too, when I do take a break from writing, sometimes it's hard to get back in the habit again. Ah, well, it's not like I'm looking to set any readership records, anyway. I started this blog mainly as a way to let my mom and sisters know what I was up to, and am still amazed that it's caught the eye of so many others.
So, a brief catching up: we got the batch of beer bottled, and it should now be ready to move from bedroom down to the cellar. The Christmas decorations are all put away, and I'm washing the linens today. Red and green looks right during December, but it's a bit too strident after New Year's. While the days are still short and dark, I really like the coziness and simplicity of red and white. I've got a few projects to finish, and more lined up, and am looking at some more volunteering activities. The seed catalogs are coming in, so I've got some planning to do - figuring out if I need to order anything. I wish you all health, wealth, and happiness in 2010.

Lovely, simple post today. I love red and white too- am actually planning a table cloth just like yours!
Love the picture as well- your home looks so warm and inviting. Hope you have a lovely day!

You can't beat the simplicity of gingham! I still have a small cloth Mum made me about 40 years ago, can it be that long?
Posting when you've nothing to say or share is probably not as interesting.It's an art and we're all still learning.Happy New Year.

Thank you :-)
Happy New Year to you as well.
My opinion is to only post when you've got something to say. IOW, quality, not quantity. I've got friends on other social blog sites that post sometimes 3,4,5 times a day, and I end up skipping a lot of those. Just don't need to know *every little thing*. Just my $.02 worth! lol

Hello Sadge
Nice to see you back I do hope you enjoyed your break.
Have to agree on not knowing what readers want - little bits more often or chunks less frequently. I seem to sway from one action to another - but then there are times when I seem to want to talk about lots of subjects and times when just one
Can't win all the time cn we lol
Take care

Roseanne Barr Rips Jay-Z + Beyonce
Comedian/actress Roseanne Barr made news over the weekend when she unloaded on the first couple of R&B and hip-hop. What started out as a tweet in support of the late Etta James turned into an attack on Jay-Z, Beyonce, and their fans, whom Roseanne labeled "drooling mutants."
The madness began on Friday, when news spread that James had died at age 73. Referencing the fact that President Obama had invited Beyonce to perform 'At Last,' one of James' signature songs, during his 2009 inaugural party, Barr tweeted, "I lost ALL respect for Obama when he dissed Etta James in favor of Beyonce. No respect for women at all, I thought – Etta was a hero 2 women."
She added, "I have not listened to anything Beyonce or Jay-Z has said or recorded since they did that to Etta. Their arrogance was disgusting."
Predictably, some Beyonce fans began sending Roseanne angry messages. Just as predictably, the outspoken comic fired back. In between tweets that declared her apparently serious intention to run for president in 2016 as the Green Party nominee, Barr sent a series of expletive-laden messages to individual users, then wrote, "Just finished telling all of Beyonce's cheesy stupid a– fans who slammed me to go and f— themselves! It was fun! … Beyonce's fans are really ignorant – she should not be proud of entertaining drooling mutants!"
In another low blow, Roseanne wrote, "Sanjaya Gupte is a much better singer than Beyonce – and his hair looks real!" She got her point across, despite mixing up the names of former 'American Idol' contestant Sanjaya Malakar and CNN health analyst Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
It's true that Roseanne is a loudmouth, but she's also willing to admit when she's wrong. By Saturday, she had changed her tune, thanks in part to those Beyonce fans she had bashed: "I really want to thank all of Beyonce's intelligent and well spoken fans for sending me links of her singing — I was wrong — she is quite good!" On Sunday, she added, "I sincerely want 2 apologize 4 the rude comments I made 2 twitters defending the fabulously talented Beyonce. I reverted 2 stand up slams."

SAN JOSE — The Earthquakes added a forward Tuesday after winning a weighted lottery to acquire former All-American Billy Schuler.
The New Jersey native joins Major League Soccer after playing two years for Hammarby IF of Sweden. He scored two goals in 26 appearances in two seasons, and also played for Hammarby's developmental team, Nacka FF.
"Billy is a talented young player and we are looking forward to working with him," Quakes coach Mark Watson said in a statement. "He adds to a deep group of forwards that we have."
Schuler, 23, had 16 goals and five assists to lead North Carolina to a national championship in 2011. He had 29 goals and 15 assists during his three seasons with the Tar Heels.
San Jose won the lottery over Real Salt Lake, the two MLS teams interested in the 5-foot-11-inch striker. The Quakes also won a lottery in 2012 to get forward Marcus Tracy, who struggled with injuries and never had an impact.
The Earthquakes expect to add to the roster Thursday in the MLS draft. They have three picks, including the ninth overall selection.

Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) belongs to a group of disorders called fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. It is caused when a woman drinks
during pregnancy. The alcohol can cause birth and developmental defects in the baby. These defects make up FAS.
Alcohol can cross from the mother's blood to the baby's blood. It is passed through the placenta. Even a small amount of alcohol can damage the fetus. It is not known how much alcohol it takes to cause defects. Social, binge, moderate, and heavy drinking all have a negative effect on fetal development.
All types of alcohol, including beer and wine, can cause birth defects.
Alcohol travels through this path and affects the baby's development, particularly the heart and brain.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Factors that increase your baby's chance of FAS include:
Birth and developmental defects depend on when the fetus was exposed to alcohol and how much alcohol was consumed.
Babies with FAS may have the following physical symptoms:
As the infant grows, other symptoms may develop, including:
Children do not outgrow these effects. Teens and adults often experience social and emotional problems. They may develop secondary conditions, which include:
The doctor will ask you about your alcohol intake while pregnant. The child's growth will be assessed. A physical exam will be done. The diagnosis is based on:
Some children with this condition do not have the typical physical features. Their condition is described as:
An early diagnosis can help your child get the proper services.
There is no specific medical treatment for this condition. Early intervention is helpful, as well as a supportive, nurturing home. The doctor may recommend hearing and vision testing, as well as testing for any other medical problems related to FAS.
Professional support helps a family cope with caring for a child with birth defects. Services include respite care and parent training. You can learn ways to handle behavioral problems and stress management techniques.
Programs designed to meet your child's needs can help improve learning. For example, messages may need to be repeated. Tasks may need to be broken down into smaller steps.
A supportive environment includes:
Efforts to prevent fetal alcohol syndrome are important.

Last night in New York, Christie's auctioned nearly $412.3 million of post-war and contemporary works of art, including a seminal silk-screen by Andy Warhol that sold for $43 million.
The total broke a record for an auction of post-war work that had been set only the night before at Sotheby's.
Bidders from around the globe battled for pieces by Warhol, Mark Rothko, Franz Kline, Jeff Koons and Roy Lichtenstein, among others, at Christie's Rockefeller Center showroom. New York Yankees' third-baseman Alex Rodriguez, sat front and center in a black stocking cap, though he snuck out about 30 minutes into the sale.

Right by my house, amazing service, have been going to them for 5+ years, and have never been disappointed with even a single visit
After having a poor experience with my previous dentist, I decided to come here and am glad to say that I made the right decision. Friendly staff. They will do anything they can to make you satisfied.
Ineffable if only one word had to be used but that won't convey the warm and personable sensation derived from the pleasant thoughtful service provided from all Kipling Dental Centre staff coupled with concise exacting dental standards of practice by the doctors and specialized dental care staff makes for a profoundly positive experience all things considered. Mostly, I genuinely feel comfortable like I am dealing with familial relations.
Just had a follow up appointment to get a permanent filling for a root canal clean out. I find the dentists and hygenists and other staff to be very ,caring and helpful during my visits.
I've been going to Kipling Dental Centre for over 30 years and the friendly informative people keep my coming back
If you live in or around the Kipling/Rexdale, I would definitely recommend coming to the Kipling Dental Centre. After a terrible experience with a previous dental office (that lowered my confidence and trust in the service), I knew I needed a change and found this office based on fellow Google reviews and close proximity to home. I'm grateful to those early reviewers because without them I wouldn't be happy going to the dentist the way I am today. With many years behind them, I really recommend you book a consultation and meet with the staff at the Kipling Dental Centre. They are extremely family-oriented, the staff are from several diverse backgrounds and speak different languages, with all age patients. Big thank yous to Dr. Lau, Mimi Kim, Vanessa, and the rest of the team for making me happy to get my teeth cleaned and come in whenever I have questions or want to try something new! You guys are the best. c: TL;DR - Kipling Dental Centre is an amazing place I would recommend to anyone. Love their staff. I would really like an electric toothbrush now lol.

My family comes to Kipling Dental Center for about 10 years now. All their dentists, hygienists and receptionists are caring professionals. They always explain treatments and options clearly. They are never pushy and they always make you understand why something is needed. The work done on me was always comfortable and there were never any problems.
Great atmosphere & very comfortable.
I moved here from Nova Scotia having the same dentist for over 20 years, it took me 3 different dentist office to finally find the one I was comfortable with The staff is very helpful & friendly. I had my teeth clean today, which at one time I hated getting this done as it really hurt. The team at Kipling listen to your concerns. Now when I get my teeth clean I do not feel a thing .They are honest with what needs to be done and what can wait.. They are working for us giving us the best care for our mouths. Thank you once again

Great Dental Centre
Our whole family are with Kipling Dental Care for 5 years and it was and it is great. I have two boys 7 and 10 they love going there. I had very bad experience as a child and at Kipling Dental they always make me feel safe and they always listen to all my requests.
Dr. Tong is the best !!
I have been going to Trident dental for many years. I moved to north Brampton and thought I would try a different dentist because of the commute.. Long story short I returned to Dr. Tong. He works with a great professional manner.. He discusses what he is going to do. He takes pride in his work and assures those that are nervous like me. Because of childhood drama at the dentist I am a very nervous patient. When Dr.Tong is working I am fine. Thank-you Dr. Tong for your fine work!
Very Satisfied Customer @ Kipling Dental Clinic
The receptionists are always courteous, prompt and helpful . The hygienist who usually looks after me is very friendly, helps to make me feel relaxed and she is very professional in her interaction with me. The office and the rooms are clean . My family has been coming to this dental office for approximately 15 years and are very satisfied with the service provided and the way the staff welcomes us and takes care of our dental needs.
Best dental office ever !
Amazing service , professional and friendly staff ! This dental office is an hour away from my house but I still drive there to get my dental work done although there is 6 other practices next to my residence.
I started out with a whitening by Vanessa. She was so attentive and caring that I have scheduled another whitening. I have since had a front tooth fracture. Dr. Tong treated me and with all of his professional staff have been working diligently to repair the tooth with a crown. They also call between visits to make sure there is no pain or other problems. They are thorough and their follow up is unsurpassed. They make me feel welcomed and have given me confidence in their abilities and procedures. Thank you to a wonderful staff and the teamwork provided by Kipling Dental.
Professional and friendly staff
My son and I have been clients of Kipling Dental Centre for many years. Ever since day one, they have been exceptionally professional and friendly. I would recommend them for all your dental needs!

Good Experience
The dental professional was polite, respectful, detailed and was willing to listen to my concerns.
Always so caring
I had an Emergency and Dr. Lau took the time to see me that same day. Everytime I come to this place it really feels like everyone really cares and they're all always so friendly. A few days after the receptionist even took the time to call me and ask me how was I doing. I always recomend this place to anyone in look for a good dentist and the prices are also very acessible.
High quality service. PatientAnd informative
Always patient and knowledgable
Best care and expert dentists!
I was always afraid of dentits due to an experience as a child until I came to Kipling Dental. The dentists here are the best and have taken the fear of dentists away for me!! I have never had a negative experience here and the dental work is A1 to say the least. They take the time to explain what they are going to do and include you in all decision makings. They do what is right for the patient and not what is right for their, the dentist, pocket. I am glad I found them and will continue going to them and would and have recommended them to family and friends!!
Excellent Dentists and Staff!
I have been coming to Kipling Dental Centre for a few years now and their service is excellent. Dr. Tong is very knowledgeable and the dental hygienists do a great job as well. The front staff is very friendly and accommodating in scheduling appointments. Everyone in my family goes to Kipling Dental Centre and I would recommend them to everyone!
professional and friendly
always fast and on time
Dream to Reality - Thanks to Kipling Dental Centre!
First of all, I would like to thank you from the very bottom of my heart for what Dr. Tong and staff have done for me and my family. I would like to share the experience which I went through for almost a year from May.2015 in regards to my full mouth implants. I have been coming to Kipling Dental for fifteen to sixteen years and Dr. Tong knows the pain I went through. I suffered so much with my own teeth around twenty years and I felt there was no remedies and I would have to start wearing dentures at a very early age. Every two month I used to visit the dental clinic with a painful and stressful issue and also my family were suffering along with me, seeing me in that painful agony situation. For years of my life I could never smile when pictures were taken and always try to find excuses to hide. I still remembered how supportive Dr. Tong was to find the best solution for me all the time and finally when I had so much bone lost and my teeth started falling off, Dr. Tong came with couple options which were not going to work for me besides only one and which was very costly. I remembered the day when he had suggested to go for full mouth implants, I was completely blank and puzzled, how was it possible to remove 28 to 30 teeth in one day? Finally I made up my mind since nowadays there are many bank loans and credit lines payments facilities. Some of my close friends and workmates were extremely frightened to learn that I would undergo a full mouth surgery, extracting 29 teeth obviously that would not be fun, but as for me I was not scared at all since day by day I was going through so much pain with my own teeth. I was so confident since I trusted Dr Tong. My surgery took about five to six hours, right after the surgery I ate two yogurt, came home same night had a big bowl of pudding. I was very lucky I did not have too much pain, I only took the antibiotics and I never had to take a single Tylenol three. For four days my face was swollen, with some bruises and very drowsy with the medications. I am so happy with my new teeth, now I can smile freely, I can bite on a fresh whole apple, with my own teeth was so hard to bite on a subway sandwich. I was very touched when I went to Cuba last year and my twelve year daughter made a comment while some few pictures were taken, saying that my teeth look better and more beautiful than her teeth. I never wanted my teeth to look better than my daughter's teeth but simultaneously was a compliment too. It is very expensive to have a full mouth implants, still I consider myself very fortunate to have my teeth function properly like everyone else. I always believe brand new BMW comes after, my health comes first. Thank you God for making Dr Tong advising me for achieving a better life today with my new well functional teeth. Once again thanks a million to Dr. Tong and his wondering team for what they have done to change my life.
Excellent Experience
Thank you to Dr. Tong and the staff for their support, encouragement and making my dental experience the success that it is.
Kipling Dental
Kipling Dental has been my dental service for over three (3) years. The receptionists are professional, polite and extremely caring. I suffer from Chronic pain on a daily basis and there are times when I have to cancel because of extreme pain and being unable to walk. They show compassion and understanding at all times. My son's front tooth got hit and broke off one day as he was coming home from school. There were no dentist in at that hour of the day. One of the Dental Technicals gave him sensitive toothpaste with instructions of what to do to ease the pain and to put the tooth in water to preserve it. They booked us in for early morning, I couldn't believe how helpful, caring and concerned they all were that evening. Dr. Tong filled his tooth and gave my son instructions of how to protect his tooth until... They are all beautiful inside and out. Always comfortable there. I recommended my sister and niece there. They have the exact opinion.

They take the time to explain all procedures that will be done and make sure that you fully understand and are comfortable with them. There office does follow up phone calls to check how you are doing when a complex procedure has been done. Thanks Dr. Tong and staff. Keep up the great work.
Consistent High Quality Service
Consistency is the key word to describe the high service that Dr. Tong and his staff constantly provide. From ensuring flexibility with appointment times to the actual visit itself, Kipling Dental Centre always strives to put the patient's needs first.
Professional, friendly and courteous
I have been using Kipling Dental for about 20 years now, and I feel my dental health care and my health care in general are of the greatest importance to all the staff. Dr. Tong is extremely patient and explains procedures thoroughly. When I come in for regular cleanings, I always feel that they listen and are very considerate of my concerns. I find all the staff, especially the office/reception staff to be very friendly and professional.
Highly Recommended.....
I had a dental emergency 3 years ago and my experience was great with Dr. Tong. He was gentle, professional and informed me of all the options. The root canal turned out to be much better tolerated than I thought it would be compared to my dentist before. My pain was gone next day like nothing happened! The staff are also friendly. Since then my children have been coming here and they too love their dental visit with the other dentists here. I would recommend this office to anyone looking for a dentist.
Quality Service, Professional and Friendly
My family has been coming here for over 10 years. I have had other dentists before but I am impressed by the many seriously painless fillings I had over the years with my dentist. Many of these fillings did not need freezing but still painless! My family and I find our dentist very caring and professional, always explaining the treatments and after care instructions. Seriously, they are the nicest, most professional dental office I've ever been in. Thanks to Dr. Tong and his team for his great service!

Whoops, it's been a while. Still alive. A few things flying across my radar lately:
- CSS Problem Solving Survey
One of the SXSW panels I'm sitting on this year needs some help from you. Got a particularly thorny CSS problem? Go tell us about it, and we might have a solution for you in March. Ethan Marcotte has more information about the panel.
Speaking of SXSW, if you haven't booked your hotel/flight by now, um, see you next year.
- Yahoo Does Something Wonderful
To kick off the new Yahoo UI Blog with a bang, Yahoo has opened up a whole bunch of other UI-related stuff, free of charge. Like the Design Patterns Library, a collection of common solutions to UI problems. Or the Yahoo UI Library, a collection of Javascript for common UI components.
And finally, something which is sure to become an instant favourite amongst those who argue for/against bending over backwards to support specific browsers, Yahoo's Graded Browser Support and their corresponding Support Chart. Practical, well-explained guidelines that you can use immediately, as put out by a major technology company — print them out, give them to your clients or boss, and rest easy. Yahoo's done the tough explaining for you. Fantastic.
- IE7 Beta 2 Preview
- Not beta 2. Beta 2 preview. Meaning, expect a lot of change, and more preview releases, before the final version of IE7. Eric Meyer/Douglas Adams said it best: don't panic.
- Unitless line-heights
- Speaking of Eric Meyer, check out this explanation of
line-height. I had no idea. (This is the same bug I wrote about in October, mind you.)
- Eqo
- Last night I caught a technology preview of this new mobile service. It's still pretty beta, but in a nutshell: Skype on your mobile phone. ie., never pay another cent to your long distance carrier. Lots of caveats at the moment, but definitely one to watch.
- Photoshop transform handles out of reach
- Once again, Veerle has an Adobe tip that's going to save me a lot of time. No more zooming out to 8.25%.
- NetDiver Best of the Year, 2005
- Pure design inspiration.
Hmm.. a conglomerate of links?… on Mezzoblue? Could this be a resurgance of the muchly viewed (at least by me) Mezzoblue Dailies? I hope :D
- Sadly, viewing from IE7 (I'm Previewing!)
Well, I kind of miss having a place for link dumps like this. But 'Dailies' became the wrong term for the weekly (or worse) postings. So I might just do this periodically instead. We'll see.
Hey Dave, welcome back.
Thanks for the link to my Graded Browser Support article. It was a bit buried in the other stuff we released yesterday, but I'm glad you found it! I'll be highlighting it later this week on http://www.yuiblog.com
I thought we already have IE 7 Beta 2. Or am i missing something here ?
Dave, thanks for the heads up on the Yahoo UI think… "design patterns" has been on my list of stuff to formally study/read up on for about a year now, after a potential contracting client mentioned how the theory was being applied to UI design…
SXSW - how I'd love to go…
Thanks for the pointer to the NetDiver Best of the Year, that's some mouse-twitchingly, brain-whirringly good stuff.
@Trevor - nope, we have a preview of Beta 2 :)
for information a french compagny "9 telecom" are trying to do the same thing as eqo not with skype but whis is opensource voip service wengo http://www.openwengo.com/ and a quadriplay service
I must say the Yahoo's UI website is great for ajax n00bs
So Dave, are you saying it's officially time to remove the Dailies feed from my RSS reader?
Fabian: Gear down! Your website is using Ajax!
Jeff: He removed the Dailies a few months back, but I still wouldn't remove it completely. There was a some good stuff in there that might be worth revisiting sometime.

BRIDGEWATER, MA-Dave Leombruno's 37-yard field goal with six seconds remaining lifted host Bridgewater State to a 10-7 victory over the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's football team in a non-conference game at Bridgewater-Raynham High School Saturday afternoon.
The Bears scored all 10 of their points in the fourth quarter after UMD had taken a 7-0 halftime lead.
The Corsairs jumped ahead in the second quarter capping a 47-yard, seven-play drive with a three-yard scoring pass from sophomore quarterback Patrick Orlando (Manchester, MA/Essex HS/Saint Anselm) to sophomore wide receiver Joe Luiz (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS) from three yards out to take a 7-0 lead with 3:26 remaining in the first half. Sophomore defensive back Darrien Furr (East Taunton, MA/Taunton HS) set up the scoring drive when he intercepted a pass from BSU quarterback Mike McCarthy at his own goal line and returned it 38 yards. A penalty against the Bears allowed UMD to begin their march from the BSU side of midfield.
Bridgewater State began their comeback when they took over at their own 42 yard line with 3:05 left in the third quarter. They drove 58 yards in 16 plays, all of them on the ground, to tie the score, with Justin Fuller going over from the three-yard line with 10:33 to play.
After an exchange of punts, BSU began their decisive drive at their own nine yard with 4:15 to play. The Bears drove 71 yards in 13 plays to the Corsair 20, and Leombruno's kick split the uprights with his kick into the wind with six seconds left.
"Our defense played well all game, and the time of possession was heavily in their favor, so they really had to work hard," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Mark Robichaud. "Darrien Furr made a great play on his interception, and he saved a touchdown. I thought we'd be able to do a little bit more offensively, but they did a nice job to adjust to what we did. It was disappointing to lose, it was a tough game and Bridgewater is a good team."
The Bears out gained UMD, 248 yards to 92 on the ground and 270 yards to 185 overall. Freshman running back Jaron Hargrove (West Roxbury, MA/Concord-Carlisle HS) led UMD on the ground with 32 yards on nine carries, Orlando was 14 of 27 for 93 yards, and Luiz caught three passes. Fuller ran 25 times for 124 yards for BSU, while McCarthy gained 96 yards on the ground.
Defensively, sophomore defensive lineman Ben Mitsmenn (East Greenwich, RI/East Greenwich HS/Exeter) led UMD with nine tackles, including eight solos, a tackle for lost yardage and a forced fumble Junior linebacker John Cordasco (Rockaway, NJ/Morris Knolls HS) added eight stops, including three solos. Kevin Donahue led the Bears with seven tackles.
The Corsairs fell to 1-1 with the defeat, while the Bears improved to 2-0 with the victory. UMass Dartmouth will visit Maine Maritime next Saturday, while Bridgewater State will host Plymouth State.

Subject: Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering
Date: August 31, 2007
To: Chief Executive Officers, BSA Officers, and Compliance Officers of All National Banks; Federal Branches and Agencies; Technology Service Providers; Department and Division Heads; and All Examining Personnel
Description: Requests by Law Enforcement for Financial Institutions to Maintain Accounts
On June 13, 2007, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) issued new guidance addressing "Requests by Law Enforcement for Financial Institutions to Maintain Accounts." The guidance details procedures an institution should follow when a law enforcement agency requests it to maintain an account that may be associated with suspicious or criminal activity.
While banks are not required to maintain such an account, complying with a law enforcement request may aid efforts in combating money laundering and terrorist financing. In an attempt to comply with a law enforcement request, a financial institution should first ask for the request in writing from an appropriate source, such as an attorney within the United States Attorney's Office, or a supervisor of a state or local law enforcement agency. The written request should, at a minimum, state that a law enforcement agency is requesting that the financial institution maintain a specific account; the agency's name and affiliation; the name of the account; the purpose of the request, e.g., monitoring; and the duration of the requested activity.
Financial institutions that choose to maintain accounts at the request of law enforcement must continue to comply with all applicable Bank Secrecy Act recordkeeping requirements, including the requirement to file Suspicious Activity Reports.
Attached is a copy of the FinCEN issuance.

Most mature development shops use various code diagrams to give a symbolic representation of high-level and database code structures. Standards such as Business Process Model Notation (BPMN), Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD) and the Unified Modeling Language (UML) are a few I use all the time.
In the Distributed Computing (Cloud Computing) paradigm, these three diagrams (or their equivalent) become essential. In the past, I've been able to rely on a single architecture where my code will run. I understand the servers, the networking and the path the code takes between the client and the components within that architecture.
With Distributed Computing (DC), the architecture changes. In fact, the reason I use the term "Distributed Computing" instead of "Cloud Computing" most often (except in the title of this post, as you can see) is that I feel it's more technically accurate about how we write code. I don't view DC coding as an "all or nothing" exercise – I view it as just another option to solve a computing problem. A "hybrid" approach, where I mix in the strengths of a cloud provider is often a great way to leverage the best cost, performance and other advantages of each part of your solution. It can also help keep data secure, provide options for High Availability and Disaster Recovery, and more.
To gain these advantages, we have to think more about the components of the application rather than a monolithic stack of components in a single architecture. And that brings us to the title of this post…
For us to correctly identify code components, database objects, security paths and other elements, we have to be able to conceptualize them. And that's where those diagrams come into play. Starting with some sort of business or organizational need, we can use BPMN or UML Actor diagrams to explain what the program needs to do. That helps segregate the security and location requirements. For instance, if the BPMN shows a data access to Private Information, we can evaluate the need for an on-premise system that is federated to a DC provider. If the business users need global access, we can decide whether to set up a VPN to allow access to an on-premise system or whether a login component can be used on the web.
After determining the flow of the program, move on to the data the system will store. In the case of Windows and SQL Azure, there are several options for storing data. In the past, I've often selected a single storage type, such as an RDBMS, and stored program data there. Now we can store in multiple formats, in multiple locations and more. The ERD is pivotal, because it defines data types, which can help decisions around where things go. Another important aspect to the data decision which is not covered in an ERD (but perhaps should be) is the estimated size and growth of a datum, since that can also drive the decision on where to put a data component.
From there, the UML document helps me understand where each computing element can live. There are strengths for each type of computing, and using the UML diagram I can place each code component in the best environment for speed, security and other considerations.
So in the new Distributed Computing world, these graphical documents do much more than just help design the application – they can help define the architecture as well.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, Mass. – Just as the 2011 fall postseason gets underway, four UMass Boston athletes from three different sports were recognized by the Little East Conference for their standout performances in their respective sports. Shannon Thompson (Moorpark, Calif.) was named the Offensive Player of the Week for volleyball, Samantha Place (Newton, N.J.) was named the Defensive Player of the Week for women's soccer, and Stefanos Galouzis (Watertown, Mass.) and John DeStefano (Auburn, N.H.) were named the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week respectively for men's soccer.
The four honorees are the most to be recognized in a single week this season for UMass Boston. Since the first week of the fall campaign, UMass Boston has had at least one athlete be recognized by the conference office, with Thompson also earning ECAC and National Player of the Week honors as well.
Thompson closed out the 2011 regular season with double-figures in kills in all three of the Beacons matches. She first notched a team-high 10 kills, while also adding five digs, one solo block, and three block-assists against Plymouth State University on Tuesday. Against Keene State College, she scored 14 kills, while also earning 13 digs to record the only double-double in the match. In the regular season finale, Thompson threw down 18 kills to fuel her .424 hitting percentage, as well as four digs, two solo blocks, and one block-assist.
Place nabbed her second weekly honor of the year following back-to-back shutouts by the Beacons last week. Against Framingham State University, Place and her teammates allowed just eight shots in the match, while in Friday's double overtime tie with Plymouth State, she helped the Beacons to limit the Panthers to just five shots on goal.
For Galouzis and DeStefano, they helped men's soccer close out the regular season on a great note, earning back-to-back wins. For Galouzis he managed one goal and one assist in the 3-1 win over Massachusetts Maritime. On Saturday, the sophomore forward had a field day with Plymouth State, scoring twice, while also picking up another assist in the 4-1 conference win.
DeStefano, helped the defense limit Mass. Maritime to just six shots on goal, while against Plymouth State, the Beacons allowed a mere five shots on goal.

Washington Times op-ed: Karpinski's job safe "because she is a woman"
In a May 21 Washington Times op-ed [1], titled "Take it like a man," NewsMax.com pundit Jack Wheeler wrote, "We know conclusively that the Abu Ghraib abuse scandal is as phony as a Bill Clinton sex denial because there are no calls for the resignation of the one individual most responsible for the abuses." Wheeler identified that individual as Army Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski, "the officer in charge of Abu Ghraib and all U.S. military prisons in Iraq, the commander of the 800th Military Police Brigade." Wheeler asked, "[W]hy have there been no calls for her resignation? Let's be honest. It is because she is a woman."
Following are more excerpts from Wheeler's May 21 Washington Times op-ed [1], which also appeared [2] on the website of To The Point - The Oasis for Rational Conservatives:
Thus the frightening lesson of the abuse scandal: Political correctness trumps national security, even in wartime. ...
It would be expected that if Gen. Karpinski were a man, he would have taken those demands like a man. But Gen. Karpinski is not and so has not. She has taken them like a woman -- whining, making excuses and complaining that it's not her fault, that she's being "scapegoated." ...
The true scandal of Abu Ghraib is the unwillingness of the female military personnel involved to do a mea culpa. If there is any vast conspiracy on the part of their superior officers, it is not to "scapegoat" them, but to refuse to treat them as men, as accountable and responsible as men.
Mr. Rumsfeld stood straight up to the world and accepted responsibility for Abu Ghraib. He took it like a man. War is not woman's work. It is man's work -- not because men are more brutal or stronger, but because they can endure the stresses of combat and be accountable for the failures those stresses inevitably create. They don't whine, deviously evade, blame others, make up excuses and whimper, "It's not my fault!" If they do, they are despised and looked upon with contempt by their male comrades.
Jack Wheeler is publisher, founder, and editor-in-chief of To The Point [3], "an online geopolitical analysis service"; is founder and president of the Freedom Research Foundation; and is a NewsMax.com Pundit [4]. According to Wheeler's bio [5] on NewsMax.com and his bio [6] on ToThePointNews.com, "[H]e began in the early 1980s a series of extensive visits to anti-Soviet guerrilla insurgencies in Nicaragua, Angola, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Cambodia, Laos, and Afghanistan, and to democracy movements in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, becoming an unofficial liaison between them and the Reagan White House. Based on this, he developed the strategy for dismantling the Soviet Empire adopted by the White House known as the 'Reagan Doctrine.' It worked. The Freedom Research Foundation, founded by Dr. Wheeler in 1984, continues to provide information to a number of Congressional offices on issues regarding political and economic freedom throughout the world and in the United States."

Phylicia Rashad Leads Arena's every tongue confess, Runs 11/9-1/2/2011
Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater presents the world premiere of Marcus Gardley's every tongue confess, which opens the new Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle, the third theater space in the Mead Center. Director Kenny Leon (Broadway's Fences and last season's Stick Fly at Arena Stage) leads an ensemble cast featuring talent from across the country, including Tony Award-winner Phylicia Rashad teamed up with Jason Dirden, CrystAl Fox, Autumn Hurlbert, Jim Ireland, Leslie Kritzer, Eugene Lee, E. Roger Mitchell and Jonathan Earl Peck. every tongue confess runs November 9, 2010-January 2, 2011 in the Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle."The birth of a new theater space is cause for major celebration," says Artistic Director Molly Smith. "The inauguration of the Kogod Cradle, as a theater created for new works, needed to be a premiere. Marcus Gardley is a young writer who is a theater poet, who writes plays that are epic and intimate at the same time. The first project that is created in a new theater will be always remembered, and every tongue confess is that play." In the backwater town of Boligee, Alabama, the summer heat is rising higher, driving the townsfolk to distraction and conjuring the spirits of the past to walk the earth. Wrapped in the combustible music of a Deep South juke joint and the sweat-soaked gospel of a revivalist church tent, intergenerational stories of loss and redemption collide. Gardley blends ancient myth with magical realism, Biblical allegory with the local TV news to create a fiery theatrical furnace in which some will be saved, some will be purged and the truth cannot escape.Growing up in a family of ministers, Playwright Marcus Gardley always felt at home when he was at church. "Theater is church for me because it's the place where souls are moved," says Gardley, whose play is based on the church burnings that happened in 1996 Alabama. "My characters make a home in my mind and speak to me until I put them onstage, and now, these characters get to speak to D.C. in a new home. This is the story I want to share with the world." Director Kenny Leon returns to Arena Stage for his fourth production with every tongue confess. "I knew I had to do every tongue confess," says Leon. "It's earthy, epic, contains rich poetry and song with intriguing characters. This play is the perfect play to open the Kogod Cradle and this incredible cast will make Marcus' words really speak to people."Marcus Gardley (Playwright) is a multiple award-winning poet-playwright who won the prestigious 2008 Helen Merrill Award and a Kesselring honor. His most recent play On the Levee was produced at Lincoln Center Theater and has been nominated for seven AUDELCO awards including outstanding playwright 2010. His most produced work, And Jesus Moonwalks the Mississippi, was performed at the Cutting Ball Theater and received both critical acclaim and two sold-out extensions. His Bay Area plays This World in a Woman's Hands (October 2009) and Love is a Dream House in Lorin (March 2007) have been hailed as the best in Bay Area theater. The latter was nominated for the National Critics Steinberg New Play Award. He has had six plays produced including: dance of the holy ghosts at Yale Repertory Theatre (now under a commercial Broadway option). He is the recipient of the SF Bay Area's Gerbode Emerging Playwright Award, the National Alliance for Musical Theatre Award, the Eugene O'Neill Memorial Scholarship and the ASCAP Cole Porter Prize. He holds an MFA in Playwriting from the Yale Drama School and is a member of New Dramatists, The Dramatists Guild and the Lark Play Development Center. Gardley, a native of West Oakland, teaches Playwriting and African-American studies at Umass Amherst. Kenny Leon (Director), named one of Financial Times' Top 20 Southerners to Watch, is one of the most exciting and acclaimed directors in American theater today. In July 2010, his hit Tony-winning Broadway show Fences garnered 10 Tony nominations, including Best Director. Past Tony nominations include his Broadway productions of Radio Golf, Gem of the Ocean and A Raisin in the Sun, starring Sean Combs, Phylicia Rashad and Audra McDonald. Mr. Leon was nominated for Best Director by the Directors Guild of America for the film version of A Raisin in the Sun, which received Emmy and Golden Globe nominations and won three NAACP Image Awards. Mr. Leon's awards include the Drama League Julia Hansen Award for lifetime of excellence in theater, MIT Eugene McDermott Humanitarian Award, as well as the ABBY and Christopher awards. He's been featured on CBS Sunday Morning, CNN, NBC, Charlie Rose and PBS and was featured as People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful and the Face of Martell's national and international advertising campaign. While directing every tongue confess, Mr. Leon crisscrosses the country directing Private Practice for ABC. Mr. Leon's upcoming Broadway work includes Katori Hall's The Mountaintop, winner of London's Olivier Award for Best New Play. Formerly Artistic Director of Atlanta's ALLIANCE THEATRE, Mr. Leon is presently Founding Artistic Director of Kenny Leon's True Colors Theatre Company. His directorial credits include classic theater, drama, comedy, opera, musicals, musical revues and film. He's directed extensively around the country, including Chicago's Goodman Theater, Boston's Huntington Theater, Connecticut's Long Wharf Theater, Hartford Stage, Baltimore's Center Stage, Los Angeles' Center Theater Group, Milwaukee Repertory, New York's Public Theater, Atlanta's Fox Theater, Seattle Repertory, Georgia Shakespeare, San Jose Repertory, Dallas Theater Center and Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Mr. Leon was artistic director of the 10-play August Wilson Century Cycle at the Kennedy Center, marking the first time all 10 plays were produced in repertory under one roof. Other directorial credits include Swimming Upstream, Breaking the Silence, Flashdance, which toured the UK through May 2009, and was stage director on Alicia Keys' As I Am worldwide tour, which launched in the UK, toured Europe and finished in North America. He staged the world premiere of Toni Morrison's opera Margaret Garner, featuring mezzo soprano Denyce Graves, at Michigan Opera House and the Auditorium in Chicago.

That is why mastering the culinary arts can open many doors locally and internationally.
Culinary arts professionals can work anywhere from cruise ships to exclusive resorts; from safari tours to movie sets; or from oil drilling platforms to mountain park lodges. If you land a job in the tourism industry you may both work and enjoy leisure activities in some of the world's top travel destinations. Or you may find employment closer to home in a restaurant, hotel, catering company, or institutional facility.
At UFV, you learn how to make the best out of your ingredients and master the art of kitchen management. You apply what you learn in our Rivers' Dining Room, under the supervision of highly qualified professional chefs. You undergo the rigorous training necessary to perform in any kitchen, while also receiving the encouragement you need to follow your passion and develop your own set of specialties and tested recipes.
When you start the UFV ten-month certificate in Culinary Arts, you are registered as an apprentice with the Industry Training Authority (ITA). Upon successful completion of all requirements, you are eligible to write both the Professional Cook Level One and Professional Cook Level Two Certificate of Qualification exams.
According to Statistics Canada's Labour Force Survey, employment in all of the trade occupations is expected to enjoy yearly growth up to 2020, with the strongest growth expected from chefs and cooks.
To diversify your employment opportunities, you may wish to combine your skills as a culinary artist with an Hospitality Event Planning certificate. Restaurant management and food services skills combined with tourism and hospitality training are assets for chefs who want to open their own establishment or be promoted to management positions.

Did it appear the ball movement was much better without Monta out there, or did it just look like the Clipps did not care much?
Sorry you missed the game. The best game the TEAM played all year. Anthony Tolliver is a well coached well schooled basketball player. he doesn't have nearly the physical gifts as Randolph but he has a good basketball head on his shoulders. his passing skills and defensive position skills are fantastic.

Some people like to escape the kitchen while on vacation. Others like to spend their vacations in the kitchen. Our Bed and Breakfast in the Kennebunks can accommodate both kinds of travelers.
Most of our guests don't get anywhere near the kitchen, of course. All indulge in three-course gourmet breakfasts, and some opt for additional treats such as homemade cocoa, marshmallows and cookies, or artisanal cheese trays with fruit. But from time to time, we hosts guests seeking to enrich and broaden their own cooking skills through a culinary adventure at our Kennebunk/Kennebunkport Bed and Breakfast.
We recently hosted a bridesmaids' dinner with close to ten women. The bride and her friends gathered in our kitchen for a demonstration by Chef Timothy Jordan. After watching him prepare the meal, the ladies enjoyed it in our dining room. They had a delicious evening here at the inn, and departed the following day with new recipes and fond memories.
The bridesmaids' dinner was arranged through Epitourean.com, our partner in culinary travel. Plan your own gustatory adventure in the Kennebunks of Maine through Epitourean.com, or give us a call. Many talented chefs in the area are interested in offering cooking classes and demonstrations at our Kennebunk/Kennebunkport Bed and Breakfast.
Fear not! You won't spend all of your time in the kitchen. A culinary getaway allows plenty of time for visiting Kennebunkport's Dock Square, walking on the beach, and exploring the rocky coast of Maine. You'll have time to visit a lighthouse, drive by the summer home of President George H.W. Bush, and sip wine by the fire back at the inn. Yet you'll also have fun in the kitchen. For some, that's the ideal vacation indeed.

As the walls come down at the Woods Hole Inn, new bright lumber is installed next to the aged, dark timbers of 140 years ago — marrying the old with the new. Vintage, restored.
This week, they ripped the second dormer off the top of the building. I always knew these roofs would need to be re-built (as the structure was compromised years ago with the addition of shed roofs improperly installed) but I will admit that when I approved of that concept, I never imagined that the whole thing would come off and look open to the sky like this. It is exciting to watch, and makes one think (briefly) of making it a solarium with a glass roof. And from so high up over the harbor, you really feel like one of the seagulls circling the ferry for scraps.
The feeling of flying is augmented by the steady breeze off the water, and significantly more pleasant on warmer sunny days like this one. The crew looks frequently at the weather forecast, because rain at this delicate juncture would be a disaster for the rooms below. But, knock wood, very sunny all this week with hopes that this will be closed up tight in three days.
I went to visit my next door neighbor Joyce yesterday, to say hello and make sure she was alright with the proximity of all the banging and hammering. She has run the shop next door "Under the Sun" for decades and she lives above it, making most of what she sells in her fabulous workshop filled with lamp shades in progress, metal wire for jewelry making, wool for felting, paints for water coloring and so much more! She bought the property in the 1960s from the McLean family who also owned the Woods Hole Inn at that time.
She said she loved the radio and the sound of the crew singing along (we have one particularly loud crooner on site). She said the sound of those hammers was music to her ears: "I have been waiting for this for thirty years!" She is excited to see what it will all look like when it's done. Me too!
More photos of progress this week:
And so we continue! To remain sane, I enjoy walks at dusk around Woods Hole with my family. The photo at the top is a panorama shot on Penzance Point where stately houses line the harbor looking out toward Martha's Vineyard. Divine at dusk.

aKademy 2007 Call for Location and Organisation
While preparations for aKademy 2006 are in full swing, next year's annual meeting of the KDE community, aKademy 2007, is sending out a Call for Location and Organisation. aKademy is made possible mainly because of financial contributions by corporations. These corporations prepare their budget for 2007 in autumn of 2006, in order to be able to secure funding for aKademy 2007 we need to start organising aKademy 2007 early to be able to apply for sponsorship soon.
The event consists of the general assembly of the KDE e.V., a KDE developer conference and a multi-day hacking session.
If you are interested in hosting this large and exciting free software event, please consider to submit a proposal to the board of the KDE e.V. which will act as co-host. Make sure you read the requirements for the aKademy location which describes what we need from organisers.
If you want to apply as host for aKademy 2007 please submit a concrete proposal to email@example.com. This proposal should include information about how the requirements for the location will be addressed, who will be the local organising team and a responsible person acting as contact to the KDE e.V. and head of the local organising team.
The deadline for submitting an aKademy 2007 proposal is August 31 2006.
If there are any questions please feel free to send them to Tink Bastian, she will answer any questions you might have about organising an aKademy at email@example.com or the board of the KDE e.V. at email@example.com.
Previous aKademy events took place in Nove Hrady, Ludwigsburg and Malaga and this year in Dublin. Where will we be next year?
Europe again?
For many contributors an aKademy 2007 in Canada would be very good, but most KDE devs live in Europe... Still, after four times Europe a non-european convention would be good I think...
By AS at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
As long as I get the trip paid, I can have it on any continent maybe except Antarctica. I'd love Australia, actually. :-)
By Inge Wallin at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
Why wouldn't you want to visit the penguins? :-)
By Thiago Macieira at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
I have enough winter as it is, thank you. :-)
By Inge Wallin at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
I agree - I would have loved to go to dublin, but I was in ireland *last* year; I can't afford to go again for a while. I'm way over in BC... no matter where it is it'd probably be far away from me, but it'd be easier if it was at least on the same continent.
By Chani at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
This page makes it obvious why Akademy meetings traditionally happen in Europe. Variety would be nice, but I think it's important to make the meeting convenient for the largest number of developers.
By LMCBoy at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
How about we screw all the devels and hold it in Alaska? :)
But seriously, I vote for somewhere like .nl.
By George Wright at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
well, we talked about that. not sure what the current status is, but we're trying to get some experience by doing some K4 meetings ;-)
By superstoned at Mon, 2006/07/24 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
I think most devels are up for Alaska if people want to pay for flights there, feel free to make a proposal.
By Richard Moore at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
In fact it could well be Ludwigsburg all the time. There is no need to organise a 'world tour' for Akademy and no one discourages anyone from organising KDE events in Timbuktu, Canada etc. First the community has to be present, second travel should not be too expensive.
All that is needed is a close Airport with European cheap flight lines.
Brussels (after Fosdem)?
By Itchy at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Re: Europe again?
Osnabrück? That would be me organizing it :) For me, the netherlands would be perfect, especially Groningen as I know somebody there (free sleeping) :)
By Carsten Niehaus at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Only one place
By bob at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Go where one did't go before...
Thanks, Tink, for working on this!
Travelling costs are for sure an important factor for all unpaid contributors. So a place in Europe makes sense, still. But there could be Mini-Akademies in other continents as well, cmp. the mini akademy in spain, held after the real Akademy. There could be ones in South-/North-America and Asia. Well, Antarctica doesn't have any KDE developer?
Akademy: Perhaps France, Poland, Hungary, or some other state with good infrastructure, where KDE was not before?
By Anonymous at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Re: Sweden!
But that would be too close. Where's the fun in that? :-)
By Inge Wallin at Tue, 2006/07/25 - 5:00am
Could be possible a little delay?
Could be possible to delay the deadline to 22nd September? I forgot about the context to propose aKademy in Italy :) . So if could be possible to delay I can try to prepare a draft to take part to this proposal. Other 3 weeks could change everything or nothing... who knows? :D . August is not a good month to write a draft and contact sponsor and people to organize it. I don't remember exactly, but was the deadline last year for September?
By Giovanni Venturi at Thu, 2006/07/27 - 5:00am
Re: Could be possible a little delay?
We hope to discuss the results of the Call for Location & Organization at the KDE e.V meeting planned for September 25 in Dublin.
Just send in whatever you can. I thought August would be a perfect month for the South Europeans as they have plenty of time during their vacation month :-)
Roberto Cappuccio send in an excellent proposal last year for Bolzano. I've contacted him again and maybe you can work together with him on giving Bolzano another chance this year? A lot of work has already been done for that. Let me know if you need his email.
By Tink at Sat, 2006/07/29 - 5:00am
Re: Could be possible a little delay?
Well if you can send it to me could be fine. In any case I hope KDE e.V. never accept Napoli (Neaples) as site for a future aKademy because it's not a real and possible candidate city for an aKademy. I really hope. Can be interesting to write a proposal, but, at the end, I think it's funny don't organize it. The organizer I don't think will have so funny as someone that simply take part in it :) . In any case in Dublin if I can help let me know :) I want to stay between you people.
By Giovanni Venturi at Mon, 2006/07/31 - 5:00am
aKademy 2007 Call for Location
Belarus? It would be quite good:)
By SkySy at Sun, 2006/07/30 - 5:00am
What about Macedonia?
What do you think in Macedonia? It's pretty cheap for everything and we could use an event like aKademy to wake up a lot of people here from their long hibernation.
By Zoran Dimovski at Mon, 2006/07/31 - 5:00am
Re: What about Macedonia?
Macedonia sounds exciting and interesting and so does Belarus.
Why don't you both write up a proposal?
If you need an a example of how a proposal would/should look like let me know and I'll be happy to send you one.
By Tink at Tue, 2006/08/01 - 5:00am
No Belarus please
Make it some warm EU country! :)

Nation & World
The Obama administration on Tuesday unveiled a celebrity public service announcement, a new website - NotAlone.gov - and a series of recommendations aimed at lowering the alarming rate of sexual assaults on college campuses.
The action came as Vice President Joe Biden said officials at colleges and universities, even if they fear their schools' reputations may be damaged, "can no longer turn a blind eye and pretend rape and sexual assault don't occur on their campuses."
"Colleges and universities need to face the fact of what exists on their campuses," Biden said. "They need to step up to it."
The first report of the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault estimates that one in five women are sexually assaulted while in college, most often in their freshman or sophomore years. In the majority of cases, it's by someone the woman knows, and most often women don't report what happened.
Biden, who was introduced by a woman who was assaulted at Harvard University, said only 13 percent of women attacked report the crime to their schools.
"They fear they'll be shamed. They're embarrassed," he said. "Or scared they won't be safe on campus with their attacker roaming around or maybe sitting in the same history class."
The steps include identifying the scope of the problem on individual college campuses, helping prevent assaults, helping schools respond effectively and making the federal government's enforcement efforts more transparent.
The recommendations were put forward after three months of 27 sessions with more than 2,000 people who made suggestions. The administration plans to hold more listening sessions and revise the report.
One theme from the sessions was that it was too hard for students who are victims of sexual crimes to find information about how to report them, said Tina Tchen, executive director of the White House Council on Women and Girls.
"We need to provide survivors with more support and we need to bring perpetrators to justice," Biden said.
The website will make enforcement data public and make other resources accessible to students and schools. Students can learn about their rights, search enforcement data and read about how to file a complaint. It also will provide schools and advocates with federal guidance on legal obligations.
The site also features resources from outside the federal government, such as hotline numbers and mental health services locatable with a zip code. The Department of Education will release new guidance clarifying that on-campus counselors and advocates can talk to survivors in confidence.
Biden said the task force heard from too many schools that believed counselors could not maintain confidentiality. The administration also wants to bring men into the equation. It released public service announcements featuring President Barack Obama, Biden and actors Daniel Craig, Seth Meyers, Benicio Del Toro, Steve Carell and Dule Hill.
"We've got to send a message to men everywhere, you've got to be part of the solution," Biden said. Women must give verbal consent, he said: "Everything else is rape and assault."
The new public service announcements encourage men to speak up and step in if they see someone in danger of being sexually assaulted.
"If I saw it happening, I'd never blame her. I'd help her," Craig says in the spot.
Biden called on schools to conduct a campus climate survey to gauge the prevalence of sexual assault and student awareness of the problem. The administration plans to make the campus climate surveys mandatory in 2016.
The administration also will provide training for school officials who are involved in investigating and adjudicating sexual assault cases.
"It's great to see the White House really putting a lot of effort into this issue," said Andrea Pino, a University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student who, with former UNC student Annie Clark, were among those who filed a complaint about the handling of sexual assault cases against their university.
A separate complaint accused the university of noncompliance with the federal Clery Act, which requires universities that receive federal aid to collect and disclose information about crime that occurs on and near campus.
The cases are under federal investigation.
Pino and Clark also helped found a national advocacy network.
"It's inspiring to see advocates here of different generations and seeing unity on this issue," Pino said. "There's a lot more to do. This is a first step."
Clark said the policies aren't "exactly where we want them yet." Advocates will continue to work with the federal government, she said. One major problem is that the Department of Education doesn't have the funding and staffing to handle the complaints it's receiving and isn't enforcing the law, she said.
A task force at UNC-Chapel Hill has been meeting for more than a year to rewrite the university's sexual assault and harassment policies. The group has hashed out the structure of the adjudication process along with sanctions and grounds for appeal. Recommendations to Chancellor Carol Folt are expected soon.
A university spokeswoman said Tuesday that UNC-CH commends the White House for "making this important issue a priority, and we share their passion for providing safer campuses for our students."
Folt was one of about a dozen university leaders who attended the White House meeting on Tuesday. She also attended a listening session of the White House task force in February. North Carolina students also met with the group led by Biden, including a graduate student from UNC-CH and a student from North Carolina Central University.
The White House effort will elevate the issue "in a way that will get the attention of college campuses across the country," said Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., who has been championing efforts to combat sexual assaults and who attended the event.
"This is a complex and difficult problem," said McCaskill, a former county prosecutor. "The more people who put their shoulder to this effort, the more progress we're going to make."
The campus climate surveys will show how students feel about their safety and whether they think rape cases are being handled appropriately.
McCaskill is working on a separate survey of 450 schools that will give a statistically valid sample of what all schools are doing to address the problem of campus rape. The 18-page surveys include questions about how colleges and universities report and investigate rapes and sexual assaults and what the institutions do to help victims of these crimes.
The surveys were sent out over the past few weeks. McCaskill said individual schools' responses would be kept confidential to encourage candid responses. Data from the surveys showing the extent of campus sexual assault would be released after a series of meetings beginning in May, she said.
McCaskill also plans to work on a new law that clarifies existing laws and "makes it simpler for universities to do the right thing," she said. She planned to hold hearings in the summer and get a draft of the bill prepared before the school year starts.
The report's recommendations drew praise from across the aisle, as well. Rep. Patrick Meehan, R-Pa., called it a "vital step forward" in efforts to keep students on college campuses safe.
"These recommendations will help victims navigate the reporting process, enhance transparency in federal enforcement efforts and help schools build community partnerships with organizations like rape crisis centers that provide critical services for victims," Meehan said.
Jane Stancill of The News & Observer of Raleigh, N.C., contributed.

Maduka Nwanekezi '14: Accounting for a meaningful life
Major: Accounting
Minor: International Affairs
Hometown: Milton, MA
Path: Oil and gas consultant in Nigeria
Before he enters Bryant's MBA program this fall, Maduka Nwanekezi will take part in a third summer internship at PricewaterhouseCoopers, Boston, where he will work with clients in the auditing practice. The previous two internships allowed him to get a feel for corporate culture, build a network, and explore the opportunities within the field of accounting. "My first year at PwC showed me that accounting is not just about auditing and taxation," he says. "I became very interested in their advisory practice because consulting is the type of work I would like to do in Nigeria, where my family is from."
"Bryant has provided me with the skills and confidence to do well at PwC"
Nwanekezi first learned about the internships through Bryant's award-winning Amica Center for Career Education, which helped him to prepare a professional résumé. "Bryant has provided me with the skills and confidence to do well at PwC," he says. "I learned to work with others in a group setting and lost my fear of public speaking due to the many classes at Bryant that involve presentations."
A history buff, Nwanekezi appreciates Bryant's integration of business and liberal arts. He also likes being able to minor in international affairs while concentrating in business and accounting . "My international affairs background gives me a sense of the world today," he says.
A defensive end for the football team, he has started every game since freshman year.
"The most important life skill I've learned as an athlete is accountability. I came to realize that my actions affect others," says the 2013 Rhode Island Big Brother of the Year.
When Nwanekezi first visited Bryant, he fell in love with the campus. Even more importantly, he felt it was a place where he could become a better person academically and athletically.
"Bryant has exceeded my expectations," he says. "More than half of the people I know had jobs lined up in September of their senior year."
