Ever wonder what the essence of being you is while you're at work? Ever wonder why you feel constrained at work as if the real you's buried a bit? Chances are you are not alone.
The camouflaging of self appears to be part of the reason why today's executives and office workers feel like they're gasping for air in the organizational chamber.
So how and why do we put on the veil that hides the true self at work? After all, we are not living in the 1960s, Mad Men-era. Our roles today are dynamic, not static. Work-role rigidity should be giving way to creativity and critical thinking by now, right?
I contend that we stumble along the learning journey of building organizations. As we began crossing work thresholds, we transformed a bit—moving from natural states of being to unnatural ones.
It's when we look back that we see how many lessons we've learned about ourselves along the way.
This past week, I attended a training session with clients and, during a break, we talked about organizational culture. How is it that some company cultures, like Zappos.com, encourage the emergence of self at work while others water it down?
During the conversation, we concluded that many workplace leaders are too task-oriented in reporting and limit themselves to results. Workplaces, we agreed, fail to encourage sharing without prejudice and they tend to become more compliant and less generative as companies grow.
As far as leaders and workers go, we agreed that today's leaders adoped the attitudes of their superiors, who manage numbers not people. Consequently, the love for work has been lost in many workplaces and replaced with money matters. Giving in to "the way it is here" is a mantra that generally rules workplaces—workplaces where collaborative thinking and leading is as uncommon as dialogue.
We did a great job identifying the deadly sins of most organizations in a setting where, ironically, people felt like they were autonomous and self-determined. Such "feelings of freedom" generated the content of this post—imagine that? The contributors were truthful, straight-forward, and clear thinkers. There was no rubric or metric or management oversight even. They also accomplished a non-assigned task in about 12 minutes.
As an organizational systems professional with a care for language and creating collaborative workplaces, I was delighted in our discoveries. In a moment of non-structure, coherent thinking about patterns emerged.
Martin Luther King Jr. once said that "the hope of a secure and livable world lives with disciplined non-conformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood." Sometimes the best way to undo a structure is to disrupt it by adopting a non-conformist's mindset. King was no doubt speaking about the world at large, but doesn't this statement apply to us at work as well?
Why not use some unclaimed time to show your gifts at work or even encourage another's gifts to emerge—maybe even through unplanned dialogue?
To be human is not to be caged, smothered, or held back. On the contrary, to be human is to belong. In fact, Abraham Maslow speaks to this love, affection and being part of a group as a requisite pit stop en route to self-actualization. "It feels good" means "to belong." This feeling contributes to the positivity and flow of work chats.
I believe your true self can't "belong" at all when it remains cloaked. Validation of our true selves brews trust in others and garners authentic, spontaneous exchanges leading to workplace cultures that are welcoming—now that's a structure or cycle worth sustaining at work, isn't it?
Identifying your own hidden structures may rest in the ability to answer the question: "Where do you feel yourself come alive in the non-structure of your work day?" Chances are quite good that you may be showing your true gifts to the organization and to others during these moments of autonomy.
Don't be afraid to look closely next time you have a moment—you may catch yourself having a Maslow moment of true belonging. It's in these moments that we need to wake up, take note, and take action. By doing so, we'll begin to have the courage to stay ourselves at work.
When we are authentic at work, not only do we gain comfort and contribute to an authentic culture of workplace warmth, but we also create a sense of connectedness that may deliver the happiness that's presently absent in many workplaces—an absence that causes many people to hop from organization to organization in search of happiness.

text: Back Amphetamine Screen (Urine) Does this test have other names? Drug test, AMP, toxicology urine screen What is this test? This test detects the presence of amphetamine in your urine. Amphetamine is a central nervous system stimulant, and it can show up in your urine long after you've taken it. This group of drugs also includes methamphetamine, or "meth." Amphetamine is a commonly used illicut drug that overstimulates the central nervous system and makes users feel unusually alert, energetic, and productive. Stimulants like amphetamine and methamphetamine can also cause euphoria, overwhelming agitation, delusions, and hallucinations. Feelings of aggression and paranoia can make people more prone to violence. Abusing these drugs can also cause other serious health problems, including stroke, heart disease, convulsions, and severe tooth decay. Amphetamine also has medical uses. Doctors sometimes prescribe the drug in small doses for patients with attention-deficit disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. In addition, doctors sometimes use the drug to treat depression and narcolepsy, a sleep disorder marked by falling into a sudden deep sleep in inappropriate places or situations. Why do I need this test? Amphetamine can be dangerous to your health if you take too much. If you have been prescribed this drug, your health care provider may use this test to make sure you are taking your dose. An emergency room doctor may also order a blood or urine screen for methamphetamine, which metabolizes to amphetamine, if you come to the ER with signs of a drug overdose. These signs include: Hyperactivity High blood pressure Dilated pupils Hyperthermia, or high body temperature Aggressiveness Irrational violence Psychosis Rapid heart beat Severe agitation Even if you do not use amphetamines, your workplace may require you to have the test as a condition of employment. If you are a parolee or someone being treated for drug abuse, you may also be required to take this test to show that you are abstaining from drug abuse. Companies often use urine tests to screen new employees for drugs, including amphetamine. Although urine tests are less expensive than blood tests, they can be problematic because people have found ways to cheat the test and appear drug-free. Cheating usually involves adding a substance to the urine sample to alter the test results. Another problem is that surveillance to prevent cheating is intrusive. Some testers insist on being present while a person provides a urine sample, and this can be embarrassing. What other tests might I have along with this test? You may also have a blood test to screen for drugs such as amphetamine. Amphetamine can even be detected in a strand of your hair, although this test is not considered as reliable as a blood or urine test. If you have injected amphetamines or other drugs, your doctor may test you for viruses that commonly affect drug users, such as HIV or hepatitis B or C. If you have signs of a methamphetamine overdose, a doctor may also order a fingerstick blood sugar test, acetaminophen test, and ECG to rule out other medical emergencies or monitor your condition. Doctors may also order tests to check your electrolyte balance and the health of your kidneys and liver. What do my test results mean? Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your health care provider. A positive result means you most likely have used this drug within the last one to four days. If you take amphetamine often, it may show up in your urine for up to a week after using it. Results only show that amphetamine was in your system at the time of the test. A positive test result should be confirmed by a certified laboratory. Doctors diagnose amphetamine abuse only after a physical exam that includes taking your personal history and talking with you. If you have a problem with amphetamine abuse, your doctor can suggest treatment for addiction, drug abuse, or depression. How is this test done? This test requires a urine sample to be tested in a lab. Does this test pose any risks? This test poses no known risk. The results of your test may affect your ability to obtain a driver's license, get a job, or participate in the military or certain sports. What might affect my test results? In some cases, it's possible to get a positive test result even if you do not take amphetamines. This is called a false positive. Test results have come back positive because patients used a Vicks inhaler or have taken certain antihistamines or cold medications. You may also get a false positive if you use the drug bupropion for depression or to help you quit smoking. Talk with your health care provider about whether the prescription and over-the-counter drugs you take could cause a false positive test result. How do I get ready for this test? You do not need to prepare for this test.

Cool app of the week: vCard to CSV Converter.
We needed to print custom labels, so we had someone use Apple's Address Book.app and clean up all the addresses, and then export them all as a .vcf file. From there I used the vCard to CSV Converter (running locally on my machine) to covert the .vcf file into a .csv file. Once that was done, it was pretty trivial to write some Perl-fu to take the .csv file and spit out an XPress tag file we could flow into QuarkXPress so the custom styles were applied. (Hey, we're designers, we care about things like typefaces, leading, tracking, etc.)
The biggest problem was that I could not create multiple automatic linked text boxes in QuarkXPress 6.5. This is probably a limitation of XPress, but I worked around it by just using a single automated text box and then calculating the size of the lines in the addresses and adding blank lines accordingly. Oh, we also printed them on label sheets that were 8.75 inches by 11.5 inches, just for an added measure of fun.

Phase 4 Films
Rated R, 1 star
A word of advice to all those women out there bent on creating the definitive, raunchier than thou female Hangover movie. Knock it off, enough already. And that includes the latest seemingly self-hating sexpots in their own mind, garish girls gone wild spree, That's What She Said.
Not that the cast depicting chatty when not catty sluts on screen is lacking in talent. Anne Heche, Alia Shawkat and Marcia DeBonis as a horny threesome, collectively combine enough charisma and negative sassy charm to set a script on fire, if only they were given something to say. Which brings up the title of this movie, That's What She Said. As, well, basically very little that the audience is likely to want to hear.
Statically staged primarily as a series of screeching coffee shop gripe sessions, the mostly all talk and no action downtown Manhattan slacker setting plods along with all the momentum and zip of a sedentary filmed play. The plot, such as it is, features DeDonis as Bebe. A bawling bubblehead behaving like a fortysomething female going on fourteen, Bebe gushes nervously to terminally cynical chain smoking best friend, Dee Dee (Anne Heche) about a prospective date with an elusive guy not likely to materialize. Meanwhile, stray sex addict Clementine (Shawkat) turns up out of nowhere to attach herself to the terrible twosome, uninvited. And tending to barf uncontrollably, but mostly whining about her spontaneous sex drive, stimulated even by the subway.
That's What She Said is somewhat of a cross between a bickering small screen reality show and chick flick revenge touching on men, bad hair days and yeast infections. But clearly setting out to be the opposite of feminist in the extreme, while likely to please neither gender in the audience. And if you think the coffee shop customers perpetually frowning in the background of this movie were placed there by the filmmakers to signal an annoyance alert to viewers, wait till you get an earful.
All of which tends to add up to suspicions that the movies mocking women as laughable losers lately, and made by women, may be the work of assorted mean girls all grown up now. And into sublimating their sour spite up on the screen, supplanting former extra-curricular high school campus hostilities.
On a possibly related side note in that regard, That's What She Said is masterminded by two glamorous actresses more recently venturing into moviemaking, and including first time screenwriter Kellie Overbey. Along with director Carrie Preston, whose mother happens to be, of all things, a therapist.


text: After feeling intense heat from its users regarding recent changes to its privacy policy, Facebook introduced new settings today. The streamlined settings are intended to help users better understand and more easily manage the information that they share.In an announcement this afternoon, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg admitted that, "A lot of what we were trying to do, we didn't communicate." Zuckerberg, a proponent of "openness" and sharing, told reporters he's trying to join these two ideas with more privacy."The number-one thing we've heard is that there just needs to be a simpler way to control your information," Zuckerberg wrote in a statement. "We've always offered a lot of controls, but if you find them too hard to use, then you won't feel like you have control. Unless you feel in control, then you won't be comfortable sharing, and our service will be less useful for you."Facebook has done some serious streamlining. Among the changes:It reduced the number of settings required to make all information private from nearly 50 to fewer than 15.-Consolidated 10 settings on three separate pages into seven settings on one page.-Reduced the number of separate pages in the privacy center from 13 to 8.The new privacy controls, which are rolling out gradually over the next several weeks, focus on three items: a single control for your content; more powerful controls for your basic information; and an easy way to turn off all applications. Here's what you need to know.1. Managing Your Facebook ContentSharing on Facebook: The first new control helps you set who can see the content you post. This includes your status updates and photos, as well as your birthday and contact information, comments on your posts, and photos in which you've been tagged.With a few clicks, you can set the content you've posted to be open to everyone, friends of your friends, or just your friends. The granular controls--such as restricting individual people or lists from viewing content--will still be available. You'll find this under "Customize settings."Additionally, when you specify a control for this section, Facebook will use it as a precedent when it launches new products in the future. For example, if you set this control to share content with only your friends, future settings will be set only to friends so you don't have to worry about making changes.2. Managing Your Basic InformationBasic Directory Information: Facebook also reduced the amount of basic information that must be visible to everyone. Before, your friends and pages were public information. Now, you have the ability to control who can view these.Information that will remain public includes: your name, profile picture, gender and networks. Other information, including your hometown and activities, will be visible by default.3. Controlling Applications and WebsitesApplications and Websites: The last privacy control Facebook unveiled helps you control whether applications and websites (including search engines) can access any of your information. If you don't use any Facebook games or applications, you can choose to turn off "Platform" entirely. This will ensure that none of your information is shared with applications or websites.Facebook also is addressing another pain point: instant personalization. Now, partner sites can only see things you've made visible to everyone. If you want to prevent them from seeing that data, Facebook is making it easier to turn it off completely.Staff Writer Kristin Burnham covers consumer Web and social technologies for CIO.com.

That, at least, is the hope. But a comparative study of linguistic traits published online today (M. Dunn et al. Nature doi:10.1038/nature09923; 2011) supplies a reality check. Russell Gray at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and his colleagues consider the evolution of grammars in the light of two previous attempts to find universality in language.
The most famous of these efforts was initiated by Noam Chomsky, who postulated that humans are born with an innate language-acquisition capacity — a brain module or modules specialized for language — that dictates a universal grammar. A few generative rules are then sufficient to unfold the entire fundamental structure of a language, which is why children can learn it so quickly. Languages would diversify through changes to the 'parameter settings' of the generative rules.
The second, by Joshua Greenberg, takes a more empirical approach to universality, identifying traits (particularly in word order) shared by many languages, which are considered to represent biases that result from cognitive constraints. Chomsky's and Greenberg's are not the only theories on the table for how languages evolve, but they make the strongest predictions about universals.
Gray and his colleagues have put them to the test using phylogenetic methods to examine four family trees that between them represent more than 2,000 languages. A generative grammar should show patterns of language change that are independent of the family tree or the pathway tracked through it, whereas Greenbergian universality predicts strong co-dependencies between particular types of word-order relations (and not others). Neither of these patterns is borne out by the analysis, suggesting that the structures of the languages are lineage-specific and not governed by universals.
Nature (2011) doi:10.1038/nature09923
Evolved structure of language shows lineage-specific trends in word-order universals
Michael Dunn et al.
Languages vary widely but not without limit. The central goal of linguistics is to describe the diversity of human languages and explain the constraints on that diversity. Generative linguists following Chomsky have claimed that linguistic diversity must be constrained by innate parameters that are set as a child learns a language1, 2. In contrast, other linguists following Greenberg have claimed that there are statistical tendencies for co-occurrence of traits reflecting universal systems biases3, 4, 5, rather than absolute constraints or parametric variation. Here we use computational phylogenetic methods to address the nature of constraints on linguistic diversity in an evolutionary framework6. First, contrary to the generative account of parameter setting, we show that the evolution of only a few word-order features of languages are strongly correlated. Second, contrary to the Greenbergian generalizations, we show that most observed functional dependencies between traits are lineage-specific rather than universal tendencies. These findings support the view that—at least with respect to word order—cultural evolution is the primary factor that determines linguistic structure, with the current state of a linguistic system shaping and constraining future states.

Fox Directs Viewers To Website For Full Obama Speech, After Airing Entire Romney Comments
Fox News' election coverage continues to overwhelmingly favor Mitt Romney just a day before Election Day. On Monday, Fox News kicked off election coverage by airing Romney's entire campaign speech live in Orlando, Florida, but did not extend the same coverage to President Obama's speech in Madison, Wisconsin later in the day.
America's Newsroom started airing footage from Romney's campaign rally at the top of the 9 a.m. ET hour and went live to his speech three minutes later. Romney spoke uninterrupted for about 26 minutes before co-host Martha MacCallum returned to provide a positive overview of what he had just said.
By contrast, Happening Now cut away from Obama's speech in Madison after just eight minutes. Co-host Jenna Lee then told viewers: "If you'd like to watch the president and what he has to say in Madison, you can do so at FoxNews.com."
Since last week, Fox News has provided significantly less coverage to Obama campaign speeches, airing two hours and 48 minutes of Romney's speeches, as compared with 27 minutes of Obama's speeches from the morning of November 1 to 5 p.m. ET on November 4. So for every minute of airtime Fox News gave Obama, Romney was afforded a little over six minutes.

Below Freezing at W.E. Rock Professional Rock Crawling Eastern Season Opener in Dayton, TN
Winners: Unlimited – Josh Jordan ; Pro Modified – Kenny Blume
Sportsman – Brian Milsap ; Modified Stock – Duane Garretson
One of the coldest weekends in April at the Kizzar's Rock Crawling ranch outside of Dayton, TN brought out only the core group of drivers and spectators for the first round of the W.E. Rock professional rock crawling Eastern Series. "Friday was 28 degrees after factoring in the wind, and Saturday wasn't much better. It was miserable, so I can truly call every spectator that came out a Hard Core Rock Crawling Fan!" said Rich Klein, President and founder of W.E. Rock Events. "We really appreciate everyones support in Dayton and will be back in town August 9th and 10th for the final Eastern round!"
In the Pro Modified class, Kenny Blume took an early lead on Friday on the first obstacle; he continued to battle Josh Crowe until the end of the night, establishing an 18-point lead. Kenny ended the event with first place, the same way he began the 2012 season. Danny Rohrer was the only one of the three to have a 40-point course that put him in third place.
Josh Jordan, from Rhode Island, won the Unlimited class. Jason Brown fought new car issue all night Friday and was unable to complete all the courses. He fixed and repaired as needed and was able to compete on Saturday establishing some great scores until the end of his third course when he broke again.
Fifteen year old Cole Milsap competed for the very first time in the Sportsman class behind the wheel of the 22 Unlimited buggy previously owned by Bill and Chicky Barton. His dad, Brian Milsap, competed right along side him to take the win. Duane Garretson took second in Sportsman, and first in the Modified Stock class. Also in the Sportsman Class, Chris Smith and Austin Harrah took fourth now competing in the former Mike Shaffer championship Pro Mod 914 rig. Fifth place went to Keith Phillips with Duane Garretson spotting. All of the drivers, with the exception of Duane Garretson, were new to their cars and trying to find their rhythm.
Professional Rock Crawling is one of the most intricate sports in the motorsports arena. It is technical, mechanical and filled with action. The rock courses are setup on a wall where spectators can bring their chairs and see multiple courses running at the same time. The two-day format includes four courses of competition on Friday night and another four courses on Saturday night, with a final shootout on Saturday night, which usually determines the final finishing positions! The winner is determined by the driver that has the least amount of points at the end of the weekend, similar to golf. The next Eastern Series Rock Crawl will be at the Badlands Off Road park in Attica Indiana as part of their UMC event that also includes an Ultra4 race and TREC race, June 29th and 30th. The next Eastern Series event in Dayton will be August 9th and 10th.

text: Big Data is all the rage these days, and more than a few organizations are at least wondering what sort of business intelligence they could derive from all the information at their disposal. But while awareness of Big Data is growing, only a few organizations\u2014like Google or Facebook-are really in position to capitalize on it now. However, the time is coming and organizations that expect to leverage Big Data will not only have to understand the intricacies of foundational technologies like Apache Hadoop, they'll need the infrastructure to help them make sense of the data and secure it.\n\nIn the next three to five years, we will see a widening gap between companies that understand and exploit Big Data and companies that are aware of it but don't know what to do about it, says Kalyan Viswanathan, global head of information management with Tata Consultancy Services' (TCS) global consulting group. The companies that succeed in turning Big Data into actionable information with have a clear competitive advantage, Viswanathan says.\n\n"Today, most companies are aware of Big Data," he says. "There's a lot written about it. There are conferences about it. Awareness has become quite pervasive. But if you look at actually exploiting Big Data, I would say we're at the very beginning stages of it."\n\nViswanathan says he believes that Silicon Valley Internet-based businesses like Facebook and Google\u2014where the entire business is based upon the management and exploitation of data\u2014are leading the charge when it comes to Big Data. Industries like financial services won't be far behind, he says, and neither will the intelligence or military communities. Other verticals like retail, telecom, healthcare and manufacturing will follow.\n\n"In terms of readiness to exploit Big Data relatively soon, I would say the companies have to be market leaders in their industry segments," he says. "They will be the ones that tend not to wait until others have exploited new technology. They would rather forge ahead and set the standard for their industry vertical."\n\nThe Role of Big DataWhat role would Big Data play? Well, for instance, a pharmaceutical company might want to identify the top 100 opinion-makers in the pharmaceutical world. To do so, it could crawl the web and go to millions of pages related to the industry, ingesting the data while weeding out anything that's not related to the objective. Or an automobile manufacturer could collect instrumentation data live from its cars in real-time as they're driven on the road.\n\nIn many cases, says Larry Warnock, CEO of Big Data encryption and key management specialist Gazzang, we have not yet imagined the ways in which we will leverage Big Data.\n\n"It's like a giant fishing net dragging the bottom," Warnock says. "There's big fat tuna and swordfish in there, but also mussels and lobsters and flounder. They're just scraping data and they don't know yet what they're going to do with it. The correlations that could be drawn from that data haven't even been determined yet."\n\nThe Semantic Data Model in Big DataOne of the keys to taking unstructured data\u2014audio, video, images, unstructured text, events, tweets, wikis, forums and blogs\u2014and extracting useful data from it is to create a semantic data model as a layer that sits on top of your data stores and helps you make sense of everything.\n\n"We have to put data together from disparate sources and make sense of it," says David Saul, chief scientist at State Street, a financial services provider that serves global institutional investors. "Traditionally, the way in which we've done that and the way in which the industry has done that is we'll take extractions of that data from however many different places and build a repository and produce reports off that repository. That's a time-consuming process and not an extremely flexible one. Every time you make a change, you have to go back and change the data repository."\n\nTo make that process more efficient, State Street set out to establish a semantic layer that allows data to stay where it is, but provides additional descriptive information about it.\n\n"We have to deal with a lot of reference information," Saul says. "Reference information can come from different sources. Our customers may call the same thing by two different names. Semantic technology has the ability to indicate those things are in fact the same thing. For instance, someone might call IBM 'IBM' or 'International Business Machines' or 'IBM Corporation' or some other variation. They really are the same thing. By showing that equivalence within the semantic layer, you can indicate they're the same thing."\n\nAnother example involves State Street's risk management business. \n\n"If we're trying to pull together a risk profile for all of the exposures we have to a particular entity or geography or whatever, that information is kept in lots of different places. Numerical information in databases, unstructured information in documents or spreadsheets. We see that providing a semantic description for these various sources of risk information means we can quickly pull together a consolidated risk profile or an ad hoc request. One of the other benefits that we see is that semantic technology, unlike a lot of other things, doesn't mean we have to go back and redo all of our legacy systems and database definitions. It lays on top of that, so it's much less disruptive than another type of technology that would require us to go to a clean slate. We can do it incrementally. Once we've provided a semantic definition for one of these sources, we can add on other definitions from other sources without having to go back and redo the first one."\n\nState Street has approached the semantic data model by building a set of tools to help end users\u2014generally a business person rather than a programmer or DBA\u2014do the description. \n\n"The tools are much more designed for the actual owner of the data," Saul says. "In most cases that's not a programmer or DBA, that's a business person. The business person, in describing the data, knows what that data is. They know what this reference information is supposed to connote. Using the tool, they can translate that into a semantic definition and in turn use that and combine it with some other definitions to produce, say, a risk report or the onboarding of a new customer. For years we've talked about being able to blur the line that exists between IT and the business and having business be able to have tools where they can more clearly express requirements. This is a step in that direction. It's not full business process management, but it's certainly a step in getting there."\n\nSecuring Big DataBut collecting all this data and making it more accessible also means organizations need to be serious about securing it. And that requires thinking about security architecture from the beginning, Saul says.\n\n"I believe the biggest mistake that most people make with security is they leave thinking about it until the very end, until they've done everything else: architecture, design and, in some cases, development," Saul says. "That is always a mistake."\n\nSaul says that State Street has implemented an enterprise security framework in which every piece of data in its stores includes with it the kind of credentials required to access that data.\n\n"By doing that, we get better security," he says. "We get much finer control. We have the ability to do reporting to satisfy audit requirements. Every piece of data is considered an asset. Part of that asset is who's entitled to look at it, who's entitled to change it, who's entitled to delete it, etc. Combine that with encryption, and if someone does break in and has free reign throughout the organization, once they get to the data, there's still another protection that keeps them from getting access to the data and the context."\n\nGazzang's Warnock agrees, noting that companies that collect and leverage Big Data very quickly find that they have what Forrester calls 'toxic data' on their hands. For instance, imagine a wireless company that is collecting machine data\u2014who's logged onto which towers, how long they're online, how much data they're using, whether they're moving or staying still\u2014that can be used to provide insight to user behavior. That same wireless company may have lots of user-generated data as well\u2014credit card numbers, social security numbers, data on buying habits and patterns of usage -any information that a human has volunteered about their experience.\n\nThe capability to correlate that data and draw inferences from it could be valuable, but it is also toxic because if that correlated data were to go outside the organization and wind up in someone else's hands, it could be devastating both to the individual and the organization.\n\nWarnock says the risk is often worth it. "Downstream analytics is the reason you gather all this data in the first place," he says. But organizations should then follow best practices by encrypting it.\n\n"Over time, just as it's best practice to protect the perimeter with firewalls, it will be best practice to encrypt data at rest," he says.\n\nWhen it comes to Big Data, Warnock says the key to encryption is transparent data encryption: essentially encrypting everything on the fly as it is captured and written to disk. That way, every piece of data ingested by the organization is protected. In the past, companies have resisted such measures because of the monetary cost and performance cost. But Warnock notes that many tools are now open source, driving down their cost in dollars, and the performance hit has dropped substantially to only 3 percent to 5 percent at the application layer.\n\nThe other step to really making that encryption secure is an automated key management solution.\n\n"The secret for big data security, and quite frankly any kind of security, is key management," Warnock says. "Key management is the weak link in this whole encryption process."\n\nThor Olavsrud is a senior writer for CIO.com. Follow him @ThorOlavsrud..

Will smoke, even the first, faint scent of a fire, wake a person from a deep slumber?
At least according to published research, the answer to that burning question is quite hazy: Maybe.
Maybe smoke will wake you up but maybe not, according to two studies conducted during the past 15 years.
"There is scant research that addresses awakening from the smell of smoke," said Dr. Thomas Freedom, program director of the NorthShore University HealthSystem Sleep Program near Chicago. (He was not affiliated with either study.) "Some of the findings are contradictory."
This much sleep doctors know: sensory stimuli -- sound, temperature, touch, even pain -- become less effective in rousing people the deeper they drop into nightly sleep stages.
For example, Freedom said, it's easier to rally a sleeper who is in "stage N1" – a lighter phase of slumber – versus a person in "N3" or REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which is a more submerged state of siesta.
Things that go bump in the night or shoves from a frustrated bedmate ("Yo! Stop snoring!") may activate "peripheral receptors" – tiny sensors, many of which are located in your skin. Louder sounds or stronger vibrations are, of course, more apt to fully wake someone, Freedom said.
"But the sense of smell may differ in that increasing intensity does not appear to lead to awakening in deeper stages of sleep," Freedom said.
In 1997, a study performed by the Irondale Fire and Rescue Service in Irondale, Ala., found that among 10 adults who were snoozing in a medical sleep lab, two of the subjects awoke when a smoke odor was introduced into their room.
In 2004, at Brown University, researchers found that among the six people they tested – three healthy men and three healthy women, aged 20 to 25 years old – all could be jostled awake disrupted by noise but none were stirred by odors. In the lab, the sleepers were exposed to both peppermint and pyridine, a compound that carries an strong, fish-like scent, reacting to neither.
"As the saying goes," wrote the paper's co-author, psychiatry professor Mary A. Carskadon, "we 'wake up and smell the coffee,' not the other way around."
But Las Vegas resident Sharon Chayra believes the certain people – like her – with a fine-tuned olfactory sense are more prone to be yanked awake by a foreign smell. She's been roused, she said, by the scents of her husband baking cookies late at night, by her dog pooping, and by fireplace embers that hadn't been properly extinguished.
"We'd had a fire in the wood-burning fireplace downstairs. It was about 1 a.m. and I could just smell burning fire. I popped up just like a piece of toast," said Chayra, 49. "There wasn't smoke necessarily but enough of an odor for me to wake up and go check out what was going on."
Once she reached main floor of her home, she doused the remaining red embers with water and sand.
Then again, Chayra says her children do tease her because she is constantly sniffing the air.
"'You act like a dog!' That's what they tell me. I guess I do. If I smell something, I will wake up and go track it down like a bloodhound."

The December 2007 issue of C&RL News is now online and in the mail. Two articles this month focus on the challenges and opportunities of library renovations. Stephanie J. Graves details her experience providing instructional services outside the library as a "Homeless instruction librarian" during a renovation project at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. Renovations also provide an opportunity for reflection on services and philosophies. The Biomedical Library at the University of California-San Diego used their renovation project as an opportunity to explore the library "brand." Nancy F. Stimson walks us through their branding experiences in "Library change as branding opportunity."
Do you Facebook? Have a MySpace page? Wonder how exactly libraries and librarians can take advantage of these popular social networking tools? This month's Internet Resources column by Cliff Landis provides tips for getting friendly with your users through the world of "Social networking sites." Finding new avenues to reach out to students and promote information literacy can be difficult. But rewarding. Robert Miller describes his experiences reaching out to students through online student academic organizations in his article "Join the club."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher fatally shot his girlfriend early Saturday, then drove to Arrowhead Stadium and committed suicide in front of his coach and general manager after first thanking them for everything they had done for him, police said.
Authorities did not immediately release a possible motive for the murder-suicide, which stunned the team and came one day before a home game against the Carolina Panthers. The NFL said the game would go on as scheduled.
Belcher was a 25-year-old native of West Babylon, N.Y., on Long Island, played college ball at Maine. He had played all four of his NFL seasons for the Chiefs and played in every game each year, including the 11 so far this season.
Before turning the gun on himself, Belcher thanked Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli and Romeo Crennel for all they had done for him, police spokesman Darin Snapp said.
Authorities received a call Saturday morning from a woman who said her daughter had been shot multiple times at a residence about five miles away from the Arrowhead complex.
"When we arrived, a lady informed us that her daughter had been shot multiple times by her boyfriend, by the daughter's boyfriend," Snapp said. "She identified him as a Chiefs player."
Snapp said a call was then received from the Chiefs' facility.
"The description matched the suspect description from that other address. We kind of knew what we were dealing with," he said. The player was "holding a gun to his head" as he stood in front of the front doors of the practice facility.
"And there were Pioli and Crennel and another coach or employee was standing outside and appeared to be talking to him. It appeared they were talking to the suspect," Snapp said. "The suspect began to walk in the opposite direction of the coaches and the officers and that's when they heard the gunshot. It appears he took his own life."
The coaches told police they never felt in any danger, Snapp said.
"They said the player was actually thanking them for everything they'd done for him," he said. "They were just talking to him and he was thanking them and everything. That's when he walked away and shot himself."
Snapp described the girlfriend as in her early 20s and that she and the player had a child together. He said the woman's mother told police they had recently been arguing.
Arrowhead Stadium has been lockdown since about 8 a.m.
"We can confirm that there was an incident at Arrowhead earlier this morning," the Chiefs said in a statement. "We are cooperating with authorities in their investigation."
Kansas City is scheduled to host the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The league has informed the Panthers to travel as scheduled because the game would be played as scheduled.
The season has been a massive disappointment for the Chiefs, who were expected to contend for the AFC West title.
They're just 1-10 and mired in an eight-game losing streak that has been marked by devastating injuries and fan upheaval, with constant calls the past few weeks for Pioli and Crennel to be fired. Things have been so bad this season that Crennel fired himself as defensive coordinator.
The Chiefs have been ravaged by injuries, led the league in turnovers, can't settle on a quarterback and are dealing with a full-fledged fan rebellion. The Twitter account for a fan group known as "Save Our Chiefs" recently surpassed 80,000 followers, about 17,000 more than the announced crowd at a recent game.

Affordable flat-screen HDTVs are everywhere these days, but many models omit an important part of the viewing experience: good sound. The slim bezels on the bottom or sides of HDTVs leave little room for quality speakers to properly (and loudly) reproduce the audio from TV shows and DVD or Blu-ray videos.
You could set up a full home theater audio system with a receiver and 5.1-or-better speakers to overcome this problem. But that may be overkill for your situation—or maybe you don't have the room or just don't want all those unsightly cables cluttering your TV room.
One nice alternative that has emerged in the past few years to deal with just this problem is the soundbar. A soundbar is a single audio unit that incorporates the center, left, and right speakers. Paired with a subwoofer, soundbars provide the aural oomph lacking from flat screen HDTVs—in a sleek, unobtrusive package.
These days, you can find soundbars from companies such as JVC, Polk, Sony, Vizio, Yamaha, and others, at prices ranging from $200 to $1000 or more. Here's what you need to know about soundbars, and what to look for.
Clean and simple
In a traditional home-theater setup, an audio/video receiver acts as a hub for coordinating AV signals and for interpreting encoded sound—such as Dolby Digital or DTS—and then sending the resulting audio signals to the correct speakers. But most soundbars don't need a separate audio receiver, because they have sound processors built in.
Another advantage of soundbars is that they let you avoid all the wires needed to connect separate speakers to a receiver. This, in fact, may be what drives many people to soundbars—better-than-stock audio with less mess than a full home-theater setup. To further cut down on cable clutter, some soundbars include wireless subwoofers, which use the 2.4Ghz radio-frequency band to send the signals that produce teeth-rattling rumbles of bass. But even though a soundbar means fewer wires, you'll still have at least two cables to deal with: the one carrying audio signals from the TV to the soundbar, and the one carrying electricity to the soundbar.
Some soundbars, such as JVC's $300 TH-BA1, can use digital signal processing to emulate true 5.1-channel ("surround-sound") audio. By directing some sound waves off walls and floors, and adding slight delays and other effects to particular bits of audio, these systems can often create the illusion of having rear-channel speakers—some of the audio can sound like it's coming from behind you. Of course, these systems work better in some rooms than others—rooms that are too open or too large often defeat the effect. If you want true surround sound, you'll need more than a soundbar.
What to look For
When considering a soundbar for your HDTV, you'll want to think about the kinds of audio connections you'll need to use. Many soundbars, such as Sony's $300 HT-CT150, offer a built-in HDMI switch so you can connect multiple HDMI-equipped AV sources—your cable or satellite box, Blu-ray player, and game console, for example—and then use a single HDMI cable to connect everything to your TV. If you have older components without HDMI, or if you prefer other types of connections such as optical-digital audio, you'll also want to make sure you have enough of the appropriate inputs and outputs on the soundbar.
Also consider where the soundbar will fit within your set up. Most people mount a soundbar just below the HDTV; if you've already got the TV mounted, check to be sure you have enough clearance for the soundbar's height. In a pinch, you can put the soundbar above your TV, though that may adversely affect the quality of the audio experience.
Many soundbars include a remote control for adjusting the soundbar's sound mode and volume—but not all. Some have controls only on the soundbar or the subwoofer. (Many of these are designed to be set to the best level to match your TV, after which you use your TV's volume control to change the level. But you'd still need to use the soundbar system's own controls for changing, say, audio modes.) If that's the case, you'll want to position the components such that these controls are accessible.
Soundbars are not perfect audio solutions. They tend to have less dynamic range than stand-alone speakers and less power than an audio/video receiver—if you have a large room, a soundbar may not be loud enough. Soundbars also don't do true surround sound, and they can't match a decent receiver/speaker system for audio quality. But if you've got a smallish room and you want to boost your HDTV's audio capability, a soundbar may be your best bet.

The effort by a new group calling itself the Alaska Fisheries Conservation Alliance to put a ballot initiative in front of voters that would ban setnetting in Cook Inlet has drawn swift and sharp criticism from the fishing industry.
AFCA is the product of millionaire businessman and Kenai River-front property owner Bob Penney, and while the ballot initiative would ban setnetting in "all non-subsistence areas" of the state, it is a thinly veiled effort to eliminate the Cook Inlet setnetting industry, since it is the only area of the state that would be affected.
Bristol Bay, the only other area with a substantial setnet fishery, is not covered in the initiative.
In a press statement, Penney says "Why is the initiative needed? In short, this initiative is all about conservation. Setnets are the most indiscriminate means of fishing allowed in state waters, with the largest amount of by-catch of any fishery. Because of how they are fixed in place, they usually catch and kill every species of fish that is swimming by, including our prized king salmon."
In its response, Kenai Peninsula Fishermen's Association, a setnet group, points out, "This initiative is statewide in name only. Urban areas beyond Cook Inlet are included only as an attempt to clear constitutional hurdles put in place to prevent this kind of ballot box resource management that targets one specific user group."
KPFA adds, "Contrary to the assertions set forth by the sponsors of this initiative, setnets are highly selective harvest tools that effectively target sockeye and pink salmon. King salmon comprise less than one percent of the East Side setnet catch."
King salmon abundance is low state-wide, but Kenai kings are not listed as a stock of concern, and have met their minimum escapement goals every year for the past 27 years, and exceeded it in 9 of the last 10 years.
Alaska Department of Fish and Game statistics show that setnetters catch about 13 percent of the late-run Kenai River king salmon, and none of the early run.
The eastside setnet fishery is unique in the number of Alaska residents who hold the permits.
There are 720 permits held in 400 fishing families. Eighty-four percent of those are held by Alaska residents, and 80 percent of the resident permit holders live on the Kenai Peninsula.
The Alaska Salmon Alliance, an industry group that seeks to build a consensus around sustainable, science-based fishery management, was even more pointed in its response, saying that it is no secret that Penney has worked for years to eliminate the Cook Inlet setnet fishery, calling this latest effort a "public relations scam."
"Their justification centers on exaggerated and wholly fallacious claims of the 'indiscriminate high bycatch of all species of fish,' including Kenai River king salmon. These claims are based on something, but it certainly isn't science or the best management practices of Alaska's fisheries management system," their statement said.
It continued, "The ballot initiative to ban a century-old resident-based commercial setnet fishery is an incremental step to eliminating an entire industry. The public relations heat is poured on by the use of language that is inflammatory, bordering on slanderous."
ASA points out that Penney's group does not seem to acknowledge any of the in-river issues that may be affecting king salmon populations.
"These include decades of hydrocarbon pollution, decades of targeting of trophy kings by anglers, altering the genetic stock, ignored mortality from chronic hook and release fishing, damage to main-stem spawning beds by huge numbers of boats and anglers and turbidity caused by bank erosion from foot traffic and boat wakes," they said.
It remains to be seen whether the initiative will pass the legal test and make it onto the ballot, but when the story appeared in the Anchorage Daily News, presumably Penney's intended audience, the comments section was universally against his proposal.
One commenter pointed out how few kings are affected.
"Settnetters catch 13 percent of all (late-run) kings in the Kenai. Isn't that a fair allocation?" he wrote.
Others pointed out that the guide industry has resisted setting aside spawning beds as sanctuaries, while still others called it a resource grab.
Several pointed out that the setnet fishery has been around for more than a century, as a proud Alaska tradition.
The idea may not get much support in the Mat-Su Borough, either, as it would require ADFG to use the drift fleet exclusively to control sockeye escapement in the Kenai River, which would put more pressure on northern-bound stocks.
It took the Bering Sea crab fleet just 16 days to catch 94 percent of the king crab quota, in spite of storm- and hurricane-force winds for much of the season.
One boat reported catching 90,000 pounds of king crab in just two days.
Eighty or so boats participating made 226 landings totaling 7.3 million pounds by Nov. 10, leaving just 400,000 pounds to go.
Worries about the delay in the season impacting shipments to Japan for the holiday season proved unnecessary, as processors have actually increased the amount shipped there to about 60 percent of the pack.
However, Seafood.com is reporting prices in Japan are down about 11 percent.
In an effort to save money, NOAA will no longer be printing paper charts.
The agency will still chart the water for rocks, shipwrecks and other hazards, but sailors, boaters and fishermen will have to use private on-demand printing, PDFs or electronic maps to see the information.
Although most people now use digital plotters, NOAA still prints about 60,000 charts per year, and sells them for about $20 each, about the cost of printing.
Digital charts do not have the same level of detail, especially of surrounding land features.
It costs NOAA about $100 million a year to survey and chart the nation's waters. The agency will still spend the same money, but provide the information in the less traditional way.
Prince William Sound is one of the top-selling charts in the nation.

Inside this beaker is a 50-meter-long string of 8,000 beads. Watch what happens when you toss one end of the string out of the beaker. Prepare yourself – this is pretty wild.
As you've no doubt noticed, the result is a levitating, single-file stream of beads that buckles, loops and coils in a self-propelled bid to escape its container. It's mesmerizing. In the video, the folks at Earth Unplugged meet up with BBC's Steve Mould to explore the secret to these self-siphoning beads (aka "Newton's Beads"), with the help of some super slo-mo footage.
Mould explains at around the 2-minute mark:
Look at it as a sort of tug-of-war. You can see the outer chain is going to be travelling really quickly as it falls, which means the inner chain is going to be travelling really quickly, as well. And if you've got something traveling really quickly, it's got momentum... So you've got the inner chain traveling up, but it wants to change so it's traveling down, but it can't do that in an instant, because that would require infinit force.
Instead what it does is it changes direction slowly over the course of a loop, so that's why it almost has to be a loop, because it needs that time and it needs that space to change directions.
So why do you get different loops and waves and coils? Watch the video to find out.
Edit: A previous version of this post claimed that the beads in the video were magnetic. They aren't. Which, in its own way, makes this experiment even more ridiculous.
