|Network forensics
NetworkMiner is a Network Forensic Analysis Tool (NFAT) for Windows. NetworkMiner can be used as a passive network sniffer/packet capturing tool in order to detect operating systems, sessions, hostnames, open ports etc. without putting any traffic on the network. NetworkMiner can also parse PCAP files for off-line analysis and to regenerate/reassemble transmitted files and certificates from PCAP files.
The purpose of NetworkMiner is to collect data (such as forensic evidence) about hosts on the network rather than to collect data regarding the traffic on the network. The main view is host centric (information grouped per host) rather than packet centric (information showed as a list of packets/frames).
NetworkMiner performs OS fingerprinting based on TCP SYN and SYN+ACK packet by using OS fingerprinting databases from p0f (by Michal Zalewski) and Ettercap (by Alberto Ornaghi and Marco Valleri). NetworkMiner can also perform OS fingerprinting based on DHCP packets (which usually are broadcast packets) by making use of the Satori (by Eric Kollmann) OS fingerprinting database from FingerBank. NetworkMiner also uses the MAC-vendor list from Nmap (by Fyodor).
NetworkMiner can extract files and certificates transferred over the network by parsing a PCAP file or by sniffing traffic directly from the network. This is a neat function that can be used to extract and save media files (such as audio or video files) which are streamed across a network. Supported protocols for file extraction are FTP, HTTP and SMB.
User credentials (usernames and passwords) for supported protocols are extracted by NetworkMiner and displayed under the "Credentials" tab. Please be considerate when displaying the contents of this tab to the public.
Another very useful feature is that the user can search sniffed or stored data for keywords. NetworkMiner allows the user to insert arbitrary string or byte-patterns that shall be searched for with the keyword search functionality.
Version 0.84 (and newer) of NetworkMiner support sniffing and parsing of WLAN (IEEE 802.11) traffic. NetworkMiner does however currently only support WiFi sniffing with AirPcap adapters.
A feature which is planned to be included in future versions of NetworkMiner is to use statistical methods to do protocol identification (protocol fingerprinting) of a TCP session or UDP data. This means that instead of looking at the port number to guess which protocol is used on top of the TCP/UDP packet NetworkMiner will identify the correct protocol based on the TCP/UDP packet content. This way NetworkMiner will be able to identify protocols even if the service is run on a non-standard port. Richard Bejtlich calls this type of functionality "Port Independent Protocol Identification" (PIPI).

How to Score in Your Nursing Career
Laura Wisniewski RN, BS, CIC
It is official…3 West is closing permanently. During an emergency meeting, the staff was informed that the neurosurgical floor will close at the end of this month. One of the neurosurgeons has retired and the other two are leaving to start a practice in another state. The patient census has been consistently down over the past year…the unit is simply losing money. The floor will be converted to an outpatient physical therapy department. It wasn't the fault of the staff, manager, physicians or the hospital administration. It was a business decision.
Karen and Mary became fast friends during nursing orientation ten years ago. The two are shopping buddies and their children play on the same soccer team. Karen consoled Mary when her mother died. Mary brought meals to Karen's house after her husband's open heart surgery. They have worked holidays together, covered shifts for each other and can be regularly seen chatting in the cafeteria during lunch. They both enjoy working on 3 West. Nurses from other floors envy the unit's team work and low turnover rate. Their nurse manager is fair, caring, and stands up for the needs of her staff. It is a great place to work.
Karen is a competent hard working nurse. She is always on time to work and has a near perfect attendance record. The physicians respect her, the patients love her, and the other nurses can always count on her to pitch in. She attends every mandatory meeting on the unit and diligently keeps up with all of the requirements of her nursing license.
Mary shares the same work ethic as Karen, as well as a similar reputation with the physicians, her patients and coworkers. In addition, she volunteers on several committees and belongs to her local nursing association. Karen wasn't interested in joining. When Mary decided to study for the certification exam, Karen thought it was a waste of time and money. "The hospital isn't paying extra for certifications." Mary received a similar response from Karen when she asked her to enroll in a bachelor degree program with her and take advantage of the hospital's tuition reimbursement program. She replied, "Why do I need a bachelor degree? I don't ever plan on leaving my job here on 3 West." Although Mary still enjoys shopping and cheering at the soccer games with Karen, she has stopped inviting her to professional development programs or suggesting career management books to her.
Competition is fierce for the handful of remaining nursing positions at Karen and Mary's hospital. Mary's resume and portfolio are ready to go and she is confident in her interviewing skills. Because of her committee work and association membership she has already developed relationships with many of the nurse managers at the hospital. Karen doesn't know where to begin. If you were a nurse manager and Karen and Mary's personnel folders were open on the desk in front of you, who would you hire?

A new cure for banks
by The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
The Obama administration now says it may not need additional money for the nation's largest banks after all.
If only it were true.
White House and Treasury officials, largely for political reasons, are hoping to stretch what's left of last year's $700 billion bailout fund rather than ask a reluctant Congress for another check.
To make the money go further, the administration may convert the government's existing loans to the nation's largest banks into common stock. Doing so would free up capital on the banks' balance sheets and give the government a sizable stake in the banks on the cheap.
In some ways, that's a good thing: It certainly would give taxpayers more control over the banks during a sensitive period and help ensure that the taxpayer investment is used wisely. But it also gives politicians more control over them, raising concerns about political meddling and whether government-controlled banks have an unfair advantage over private institutions.
Worries about the nation's 19 largest banks have arisen again after statements by Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner over the weekend and as the government finishes its "stress tests," which were designed to evaluate whether the biggest banks could survive a severe downturn. Essentially, the tests will indicate which banks are solvent and which are not.
Geithner said he was certain that the "vast majority" of the nation's banks are solvent. So are we. But what about the ones that aren't? And are some of those the nation's top 10 banks, which collectively hold about 58 percent of all banks assets in the country?
If some of these big banks are not viable, the government should do what it has been doing for years. It should seize them, reconstitute their healthy parts as a new entity, warehouse the unhealthy parts in some sort of "bad bank" or try Geithner's public-private plan to jump-start the market for toxic assets.
The administration is probably right that its allies in Congress have had just about enough of bailing out the banks. The government wasted some of that initial $700 billion by forcing it on institutions that didn't need it.
But the fact is, more bailout money probably will be needed. By dealing transparently with insolvent banks, one at a time, while treating only those that need the medicine, perhaps the price tag can be limited.

If there's one thing that unites four members of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2005, it's the joy they take in their induction. When contacted by SLAM! Wrestling, The Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, Bob Orton Jr., and Jimmy Hart were all thrilled by the honor.
The WWE Hall of Fame will expand by at least five inductees on April 2 during the WrestleMania 21 weekend festivities at the Universal Amphitheatre in Universal City, California. The WWE announced on last week's broadcast of Smackdown that Sheik, Volkoff, Orton Jr., Paul Orndorff, and Hart would join the 34 previous inductees.
By mentioning this year's inductees on television, the WWE introduced a new generation of fans to some of the older stars who helped pave the way for today's wrestlers. While the name Orton may now be synonymous with former world champion Randy Orton, "Cowboy" Bob Orton was one of the WWE's biggest stars during the 1980s. Remembered by older fans for his perennially broken arm, Orton now joins former tag team partner Don Muraco in the Hall of Fame, something Orton never expected to happen so soon.
Orton believes his son may one day join him in the Hall of Fame.
"If he stays healthy and everything and goes as long as we think he's going to, then, yeah, I think there's no doubt that he'll be there," said Orton.
Nikolai Volkoff, perhaps best known for teaming with The Iron Sheik to capture the WWE Tag Team Championships at the inaugural WrestleMania, is pleased to be inducted, although he is quick to point out that he is still active on the independent circuit.
"I'm still wrestling, you know, so I think I should be inducted when I finish wrestling," said Volkoff. "But, I'm glad I'm there."
Likewise, Volkoff's former tag team partner, The Iron Sheik, is also honoured to be included with the many greats who have already been inducted.
"It was good. I'm very happy with them for inducting me," said The Iron Sheik. "It was a pleasure for me and a big honour for me, thanks to Mr. McMahon. I'm very happy to be part of it. Always, the WWF was good to me. It's the number one federation in the world."
Jimmy Hart, billed as "The Mouth of the South" during his career, was speechless when Jim Ross told him he was going to be inducted this year.
"I was thrilled, because for nine years, I was with the WWE and I was so grateful to Vince when I got the call," said Hart. "When I got the phone call from Jim Ross and he told me over the phone, there was a dead silence on my part. He went, 'hello, Jimmy? Are you still there?' That's the way I really felt. It was a thrill for me."
Hart has been a part of the past two WrestleMania weekends. Last year, he gave Greg "The Hammer" Valentine's induction speech, and two years ago, he was at WrestleMania with his good friend, Hulk Hogan.
"It's just unbelievable. I was there last year, and that was a thrill for me because Greg was the first person I managed when I went to New York. It was just so exciting to be back up there," said Hart. "It's just a thrill, because I still feel like that's my home. I spent nine years there. It's kind of like a football or baseball player playing for one team, and then getting traded to another team. You're really inducted by the team you spent the most time with."
So far, only a partial list of inductees has been released, fueling speculation that 2005 may be the year that Hulk Hogan will finally be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Hart hopes his longtime friend will join him at WrestleMania.
"There'd be nothing I'd love better than to be able to go in with Hulkster. He was the last person I did manage up there and we've been friends a long time, in and out of the ring," said Hart. "What a great opportunity that would be for me to be inducted in the same class that Hulk Hogan went in."
Hart is grateful to Vince McMahon for giving him an opportunity years ago.
"Where else could you have a paid vacation doing what you want to do, traveling all over the world? Vince let Jimmy Hart be himself. Nobody wrote me scripts. I got to do my own interviews. I got to be colourful. I got to dress the way I wanted to dress," said Hart. "It's been the greatest experience of my life."

Excellent. I really like running end user code as a test. GAMESS is one, probably some Gromacs and other similar things (NAMD, BLAST, HMMer) as well. Combined with Octobonnie, it makes for some really good loads on machines :) Right now we have customers hammering on JackRabbits using 15-20 simultaneous bonnies over channel bonded gigabit.

Long donates talents, time to United Way effort
Volunteers for the Plainview Area United Way are not hard to come by. Businesses are highly involved in all aspects of the effort, from collecting packets and giving presentations to serving on special committees.
But Steve Long is a unique volunteer. His work begins after the year's campaign ends and finishes when the next campaign kicks off. And while few see him working, many see the finished product.
Long, who works as assistant professor of mass communications at Wayland Baptist University, donates his time and talents each year to the making of the United Way campaign video. The video is used at the kickoff breakfast each fall, then again as businesses need it for presentations to their employees.
This year's video represents the 15th year Long has been working on the project, a role he took on shortly after coming to work for Wayland.
"I came here in 1990 and joined the Rotary Club, where I met Don Dickson," Long said. "United Way was doing slide show presentations then, and Don asked me about the possibility of using a video format. We started working on it toward the end of that school year."
Since the first video had no precedent to follow, Long said it was the easiest to produce. He and Dickson came up with the creative ideas, using the Debby Boone song "You Light Up My Life" as a backdrop, then set out to film United Way volunteers and beneficiaries for the video. He and Dickson collaborated on scripting and worked together often on shooting video footage.
For the 1992 video, Long did a music video using children singing the song "Wind Beneath My Wings," a challenging project that involved filming children singing on the wings of airplanes, sliding down the water slide and underwater at the YMCA pool. The next year, children led a tour using the Plainview trolleys, another video Long enjoyed.
"Children are often a focus because they have an emotional appeal to many," Long said, explaining that agencies working with children often get clients on film. "There are also some sensitive matters you deal with and some confidentiality issues, such as with the Crisis Center, so you can't always use those clients.
"We like to use different levels of emotional input, sometimes from those who are impacted by United Way and sometimes from volunteers," he said. "The video is about helping the average person see what their money is going toward."
Work on a video begins with the year's campaign chairman, who picks the theme for the year and works on a script that carries out the theme. Long then takes the script and works with PAUW Executive Director Mary Anna Self to coordinate the agencies to be featured in the video. Her help is invaluable, he says, in dealing with the sensitive issues and in arranging the logistics of the filming schedule.
Choosing which agencies get featured in each year's video is difficult, he added, because all do worthy things. But not all make great footage, and with 14 agencies included, United Way has to rotate the groups around from year to year to keep the video from becoming too long.
Once a filming schedule is set, Long begins the shooting process, often taking along students from his mass communications classes for hands-on experience in the field. He prefers to do the bulk of the filming and editing in the spring semester while students are on campus, but if the process if running behind, sometimes those things don't get started until late spring or summer. He's even been known to wrap up editing on the video mere days before its debut at the kickoff breakfast.
As he films, Long said he encourages those on camera not to be too scripted.
"We really try to get them to speak from the heart," he said. "Sometimes they will come in with prepared testimonies, and we film that, but when we begin asking questions and getting them to talk freely, we get the really good stuff."
Altogether, about 24-36 hours of filming is involved in getting enough footage to compile for the video. After it's complete, Long heads to the editing room, where he spends another 12-13 hours piecing together the footage. The narration must be laid down as well, having been recorded earlier in a studio.
Though the work is time consuming, Long does not charge the United Way for any of his services, considering it his service to the agency. A few years back, the agency purchased a digital editor for the university, in large part to make Long's work with the video easier. It has cut the time needed to edit the video in half.
The finished product falls between 7-8 minutes typically, which Long believes is a good time for a video to be complete but not become too much for viewers. Though it doesn't include every bit of information about all of the United Way agencies – and isn't intended to – Long said he feels it always captures the spirit of the organization.
"When you finish seeing the video, it should say something to you," he said. The point, then, is to touch people and make them realize the organization's worthiness of their donations.
"United Way is a way to contribute beyond what your church contributes and it's really how the local community works together for benevolence," he said. "What they do couldn't be done without United Way.
"I think that if everyone knows the message of United Way and how it's affecting every part of this community, people have no problem giving their Fair Share. I'm glad to be a part of getting that message out."

Duels are arranged engagements in combat between two individuals, with matched weapons in accordance with agreed-upon rules. They were chiefly practiced in Early Modern Europe, with precedents in the medieval code of chivalry, and continued into the modern period (19th to early 20th centuries) especially among military officers. During the 17th and 18th centuries (and earlier), duels were mostly fought with swords (the rapier, later the smallsword, and finally the French foil), but beginning in the late 18th century and during the 19th century, duels were more commonly fought using pistols, but fencing and pistol duels continued to co-exist throughout the 19th century. The code of the honorable duel surrounded the notion of honor. Duels were fought not so much to kill the opponent as to gain "satisfaction", that is, to restore one's honor by demonstrating a willingness to risk one's life for it, and as such the tradition of dueling was reserved to the male members of nobility, in the modern era extended to those of the upper classes more generally. From the early 17th century duels were often illegal in Europe, though in most societies where dueling was socially accepted, participants in a fair duel were not prosecuted, or if they were, not convicted.

Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
Further readings for the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Announced alongside the EF 16-35mm F2.8L III USM and the Canon EOS 5D Mk IV, this lens is the long-awaited update to the much-liked original EF 24-105mm F4 IS USM. Read on to find out how well this new model performs.
We've tested 130 lenses on the recently-introduced full-frame 30-Mpix Canon EOS 5D Mk IV, covering focal lengths ranging from an ultra-wide angle 11mm to 600mm super-telephoto.
Canon has launched an affordable under-$1,000 EF-mount standard zoom for enthusiasts stepping up to full-frame who can't afford a pro lens. At just $599, the new Canon EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM features image stabilization (IS) as well as Canon's latest stepping autofocus motor (STM) for video. With results just in, let's see how this "budget" EF-mount lens stacks up against the pricier competition.
Canon has announced a new 24-105mm standard zoom lens for its full frame DSLRs. Offering a versatile wide-angle through to short telephoto focal length the new Canon EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM also features image stabilisation (IS) and a stepping autofocus motor (STM).
As a more modestly priced alternative to the EF 24-70mm f2.8L II USM and with a longer reach than the newer stabilized EF 24-70mm f4L IS USM, the similarly stabilized EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM remains a popular model for Canon users.
As a new addition to the Art-series, the Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HAS looks promising, but can the firm replicate the image quality of their recent 35mm f1.4 and 18-35mm f1.8 models? Read on to find out.
Announced in February 2012, the Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 lens Di VC USD is the latest full-frame, fast aperture standard zoom from the Saitama, Japan-based optical firm and is the first of its type to add VC (Vibration Control) image stabilization. Costing $1299 and available in Canon, Nikon and Sony fittings (the latter albeit without VC) and featuring USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) technology, it's an obvious alternative to the pricier offerings from the top-names. Could this lens be a contender in the IQ stakes? Read on to find out.
Introduced in November 2012 as the proposed 'kit' lens for the EOS 6D, the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM lens represents an interesting move for Canon – despite two well respected lenses in this category, the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM and the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM hopes to offer a compact, lightweight lens suitable for the newly created lightweight, full-frame camera segment. The red L-series band offers the promise of professional performance, but does it live up to the expectations?
Introduced in February 2012, the EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM is the long-awaited update to Canon's pro-grade standard zoom and replaces the highly regarded EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM. Designed with the objective of improving image quality and providing greater durability for daily use with digital cameras, it has a completely revised optical design as well as an enhanced mechanical construction. As full-frame lens, it's compatible with the firm's full range of DSLRs including 1.6 (APS-C) and older APS-H (1.3x crop) DSLRs making it an attractive choice to a wide of range users. However, at around $2,500 it's not likely to be a casual purchase.

I think [not wearing my chair hat] that a SOAP message delivered with POST, PUT, or carrier pigeon should have the same semantics. I'd like to drain this trout pond. I propose making sure that the glossary definition of "protocol independence" includes the concept that a Web service invocation has the same effect irrespective of the protocol or protocol-level features used to transmit it, and to action the editors to use Dave Orchard's discussion of "visibility" in the document and glossary where appropriate. That way we can move on, and Mark or whomever can raise a formal issue that we will record and address for consideration by others later in the W3C process. Of course, if someone on the WG wants to discuss this further, we can do that. I'm sure this will be seen as another sign of "the management" exerting schedule, but I think of it as just taking down the "Gone Fishin'" sign off the office door. :-)Received on Wednesday, 26 February 2003 08:53:16 UTC

SAN DIEGO -- Frederick Kasch, a health and fitness pioneer, died earlier this month at a San Diego hospital at the age of 94, about a week shy of his 95th birthday.
In 1958, at was then known as San Diego State College, Kasch started one of the first adult-fitness programs in the country and pioneered long-term studies documenting the effect of exercise on the aging cardiovascular system, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported. Kasch, an avid jogger for most of his life, shunned the belief that anyone older than 35 should cut down on exercise.
The program began as a class for men between the ages of 35 and 60 who wanted to stay healthy. The class also included some men with heart problems, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or who had suffered heart attacks.
Joyce Gattas, dean of San Diego State University's College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts, told the Union-Tribune that Kasch made a difference in thousands of lives through his research and the Adult Fitness Clinic, now called the Center for Optimal Health and Performance, that he established on campus.
"He was a man before his time," Gattas said. "There weren't all these gyms 50 years ago like there are now. He was probably a lone voice out there talking about the importance of exercise."
Kasch earned two doctorates, one from New York University in 1956 and one from Walden University in 1982. He published many research papers and articles and received several honors, including the President's Council on Physical Fitness award. Kasch was a board member of the American College of Sports Medicine, among other professional societies.

Promotional Teddy Bears - For Everyone !
    Children nowadays are now hooked up on gadgets like their cellphones,laptops, personal computers, tablets and many more, but one thing that children still have in their own homes is a teddy bear.Teddy bears are soft versions of bears which are stuffed usually cotton. No matter how Earth has become a stressful place to live in, children still find a way to relax themselves and be more energetic with the help of teddy bears. There are many ways of coping up with stress and other things that make life uncomfortable ,but nothing beats the help of a teddy bear. Promotional teddy bears are very popular among kids even in this day of age because teddy bears are soft and cuddly.Teddy bears are well known to be made as toys for children ,but another well known fact why teddy bears were made is because of charity. Though there are many tragedies in life, teddy bears have long been used by people as a way to ease pain. The history of how "Teddy Bears" came to be is still not clear. Some say it was a man who opened a candy store was inspired or motivated by the cartoon of Theodore Roosevelt after he was reportedly unable to shoot a bear. Others say it was made by a seamstress who was confined to a wheelchair due to polio. It is said that an American buyer saw her stuffed bear and imported 3000 of them and created the "teddy bear" fad. None of these stories however are proven. I guess we will never really know the true story of how the teddy bear got its name.

State reps: Torrington needs 'zero tolerance' on bullying
TORRINGTON -- Two legislators who represent Torrington said Friday that local school boards have wide latitude and should take swift action to address the problems posed by the arrest of four football players and bullying of two 13-year-old rape victims.
State Reps. Michelle Cook (D-Torrington) and Roberta Willis (D-Salisbury) said that the Torrington Board of Education should act immediately to clarify and strengthen its policies and procedures on dealing with bullying and should review the culture of the district's athletic department.
Cook, who has children of her own in the middle school and high school, said that Torrington should be disciplining any student who posted bullying messages on Twitter about the rape victims, and also taking possible action against school district employees if they failed to respond properly.
"I think it's the schools' responsibility to take serious action with every person who has had a hand in cyberbullying, verbal bullying, and the like," she said. "I think it even goes as far as if there were educators who knew and didn't do anything, or principals, or superintendents, or whatever ... If people knew about this and didn't do anything, I think they should be dealt with accordingly. I don't think people should be minimizing what happened. I think they should be using it as a wakeup call."
Willis said that if the school district does not put a "zero tolerance" policy in place, hold the athletic department accountable and provide a "safe place to go" and a "strong support system" for victims, then it's engaging in "enabling behavior."
"They're allowing these behaviors to continue," Willis said. "If I was a school, I'd have pen to paper right now writing a policy so that it's clear to the faculty, schools and families what the response should be to a situation like this."
Edgar Gonzalez and Joan Toribio, both 18, were arrested last month and charged with statutory rape. Two of their Torrington High School football teammates, both 17, were arrested on similar charges within the past few weeks.
The story made national news last week when The Register Citizen wrote about numerous students at the high school posting bullying messages about the two victims in the case on Twitter, including calling them "whore" and "snitch" and accusing them of "ruining the lives" of Gonzalez and Toribio.
"You really scratch your head, saying, 'How could something like this happen in our town?' I think a lot of times we tend to have blinders on," Cook said. "What those guys did is 100 percent wrong. And I think it's a very sad day when a girl who has something done to them ... is shunned because the person who did it is an athlete, or a football player ... Our priorities are backwards."
Just before the Torrington news broke, State Rep. Cecelia Buck-Taylor (R-New Milford), an attorney and former New Milford Board of Education member, had been listening to news about the infamous recent rape case in Steubenville, Ohio, in which students and some adults in the community blamed the victim.
"It's depressing. I guess we all need to sit back and re-evaluate how we're teaching, what we're teaching. Is this how little we've moved forward?" she said. "We still have that same mentality with some people that 'they were asking for it.' I was really so hoping that was gone."
Buck-Taylor said that local boards of education across the state need to examine their student handbooks and district policies.
"If they don't, they kind of have their hands tied," she said, adding that she's guessing most school districts don't have good enough procedures in place. "Torrington is just the balloon that went up so that we know now that we need to deal with this."
All three legislators said that no one should think Torrington school officials' "hands are tied."
"We have bullying legislation," Cook said. "The students knew there were problems. It was carrying over into the schools. That's where we hit the line of things we can be responsible for in terms of bullying ... I don't know when someone's finally going to step up to the plate and say, 'It's our responsibility.' ... I hope that happens now."
A review by The Register Citizen last week showed that Torrington schools have been inconsistent in complying with a state law that requires bullying incidents to be logged for public review. Torrington Middle School, for example, has logged 27 reports this year, while Torrington High School has zero complaints logged.
Willis said that school districts have complained that such laws are "an unfunded mandate" and say "We don't have time for this stuff."
"Now look at this situation," she said. "They don't have time for anything else because they're doing damage control."
"This is where it becomes frustrating for me as a legislator," Cook said. "Boards of education constantly harp on the state to stop mandating things. They want local control. They want to be able to make local decisions and develop policy that's local. At the same time, when there's a flaw in their local policy, they're quick to blame state law. They need to take responsibility."
Anna Doroghazi, director of public policy and communication for Connecticut Sexual Assault Crisis Services Inc., said that school districts, but also the media, police and parents, have a long way to go in changing a culture that blames victims and demeans girls.
"Victims have always been blamed. People who have experienced sexual violence know this isn't a new phenomenon," she said. The use of social media in the Torrington case simply gave us a window into what the victims are experiencing. "We're suddenly all privy to it."
"We want to be able to blame something we think we can control," such as drinking alcohol, or walking somewhere after dark, or wearing provocative clothing, Doroghazi said. "(But) at the end of the day it is a decision that a rapist makes ... Rape is the result of a person making a decision to hurt someone else."
If we switched gender roles in the Torrington case, Doroghazi said, "No one would be saying, 'That 13-year-old boy is a real whore, a real slut. They'd say, 'High five, man!' It would still be wrong and illegal, but our public conversation looks a lot different."
That's important, she said, because it's part of an overall message fed to boys and girls from a young age that "girls are sexual, and tools for pleasure" and that "being a man means you always want sex, and it doesn't matter where it comes from, it's yours for the taking."
She cited a new Victoria's Secret line of underwear targeted at 10- to 13-year-old girls bearing messages such as "Call Me" and "Feeling Lucky?"
It sends a bad message to not just girls, she said. "That also sends a really terrible message to young men. Ten-year-old girls 'want some.' Not true, not appropriate ... This isn't the sort of world we should be building for children."
"The sad thing is I look at what Torrington has been doing," Willis said. "I think I've been to two or three cyber- or social media school-wide assemblies, and I know there's a group of kids who last year did a project on hate speech and bullying, and that was watched by the student body and all the faculty."
"The schools by law have had to adopt bullying policies ... Legally, they have the tools," she said. "What this says is that this is a community conversation that has to be ongoing. You can't just go in and do two days on cyberbullying with the students. It's about establishing a school climate."

USCIS will start issuing redesigned cards with enhanced graphics to applicants. The new cards will start being issued on May 1, 2017.
These redesigns use enhanced graphics and fraud-resistant security features to create cards that are highly secure and more tamper-resistant to prevent document tampering, counterfeiting and fraud; than the ones currently in use.
The Redesigned Cards
The new Green Cards and EADs will:
- Display the individual's photos on both sides;
- Show a unique graphic image and color palette:
- Green Cards will have an image of the Statue of Liberty and a predominately green palette;
- EAD cards will have an image of a bald eagle and a predominately red palette;
- Have embedded holographic images; and
- No longer display the individual's signature.
Also, Green Cards will no longer have an optical stripe on the back.
How To Tell If Your Card Is Valid
Some Green Cards and EADs issued after May 1, 2017, may still display the existing design format as USCIS will continue using existing card stock until current supplies are depleted. Both the existing and the new Green Cards and EADs will remain valid until the expiration date shown on the card.
Certain EADs held by individuals with Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and other designated categories have been automatically extended beyond the validity date on the card.
Employers, please note that both the older version and the new cards are acceptable for Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, E-Verify, and Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE).
Some older Green Cards do not have an expiration date. These older Green Cards without an expiration date remain valid.
Individuals who have Green Cards without an expiration date may want to consider applying for a replacement card bearing an expiration date. Obtaining the replacement card will reduce the likelihood of fraud or tampering if the card is ever lost or stolen.

HOPE® - Formalin-free fixation technique for molecular pathology and research!
Tissue conservation using the new HOPE®-technique provides paraffin embedded tissue blocks with native structure of the macro-molecules (protein, DNA, RNA) in the tissue.
During HOPE® fixation, tissue samples are incubated in HOPE® I solution, then in HOPE® II solution, followed by a dehydration with acetone and subsequent embedding in paraffin. For this tissue processing no alcohols or aldehydes (formalin, glutaraldehyde) are used. As a consequence, there is no cross-linking of macro- molecular structures during the process. This opens up new opportunities to characterize tissues out of paraffin blocks.
Applications for immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization targeting RNA and DNA, PCR and RT-PCR have been demonstrated using properly prepared paraffin embedded tissue sections. Tissue specimens fixed with the HOPE® technique allow greater morphology and retrospective studies on the molecular level.
The HOPE®-Fixation technique requires HOPE® Fixative System II and HOPE® Fixative System I to complete the protocol.
- Immunohistochemistry
- In situ hybridization targeting RNA and DNA
- Achieve IHC on paraffin tissue without antigen unmasking
- IHC using antibodies which do not work on formalin fixed parafffin embedded tissue
- No more overfixed formalin tissue samples
- Unmatched results in RNA and DNA in situ hybridization
- Excellent conservation of nucleic acids for PCR and RT-PCR

Sam Mikulak is Another Hot Male Gymnast — Hunk of the Day
These gymnasts may not be tall, but boy are they ripped. Sam Mikulak is another cutie on the US Olympic team, competing in the London Games.
At just 19 years old, Sam Mikulak is not just an Olympic athlete -- he's also a college jock, competing on the University of Michigan gymnastics team. The school's football team had better watch out because it looks like gymnastics may be the next big sport on campus.
The team final earlier this week was a huge disappointment. The favored US team failed to even secure a bronze medal, but we look forward to see what this hunk has to show us later in the individual rounds.

Chile Wrap: O'Higgins cash in on Catolica crumble
O'Higgins were the big winners in the Chile Primera Division on the weekend as the top two faltered.
A 69th-minute penalty from Pablo Hernandez helped O'Higgins to a 1-0 win at home to Huachipato, moving them level on points with Universidad Catolica and Cobreloa.
Eduardo Berizzo's O'Higgins are third because of their inferior goal difference but the victory was their third straight in the league.
Universidad Catolica slipped up for the second straight game and in stunning fashion as they conceded two late goals to draw 2-2 at Deportes Iquique.
Jose Munoz and Ismael Sosa scored in the first half for the league leaders and they looked set for a comfortable victory.
But in a dramatic finish, Gerson Martinez and Manuel Villalobos both struck to secure a surprise point for their seventh-placed side.
Cobreloa would be top had they managed to take anything from their trip to Palestino, who claimed a 2-0 win.
Diego Chaves and Javier Capelli scored for the victors, while Cobreloa had Rene Lima and Cristian Gaitan sent off.
Elsewhere, Universidad Chile were 2-0 winners at Union Espanola and Universidad Concepcion struck late in a 2-1 win at home to Audax Italiano.
Santiago Wanderers completed a 3-0 win at home to Everton, but their victory was marred by five red cards.
Everton had Alex von Schwedler sent off on 11 minutes and were 2-0 down at half-time after Sebastian Pol's brace.
Pol's second goal came in the third minute of additional time before he picked up a second yellow card to be sent off.
Sebastian Mendez and Orlando Gutierrez were red-carded on 55 minutes to see both teams reduced to nine men.
Everton substitute Francisco Dutari was then sent off 10 minutes later and Oscar Opazo ensured Santiago Wanderers took all three points with his goal.
Rangers' struggles continued as they were beaten 3-0 by Nublense, Union La Calera and Antofagasta drew 1-1 and Cobresal were 3-1 winners over Colo Colo.

June 24, 2012 § 10 Comments
Mrs. Wankmeister and I were coming home along PV Drive North today when we approached a cycling dude from the rear. He had a very fine Cannondale, a very fine electronic transmission, a very fine Specialized helmet, a very fine pair of Sidi shoes, and a very, very, very fine commemorative jersey from the century ride he'd completed with 10,000 of his closest friends. It was purple and green and yellow and brown and white and black and red and green. It was styling.
For a moment.
"What a wanker!" I said.
"Why he's wanker?"
"Look at those shorts." Dude was wearing khaki loose riding pants.
"Oh. What?"
"Those are are called dickhiders. Pure wanker."
"What's dickhiding?"
"Not hiding. Hider. Dude's got ten grand in bike and paraphernalia but he's afraid to wear lycra because he's embarrassed to show his package."
"His chin-chin?"
"Yep." Mrs. WM and I often speak Japlish together.
"Why he's ashamed of tiny chin-chin? Asian girl's gonna wear little tight thing shows tiny oppai. Why he's not gonna show tiny chin-chin? Smart shopper wanna see it before she buy it."
"I dunno. But any time you see some dude wearing floppy shorts on a racing bike, it's cuz he doesn't want you postal inspector chicks to examine his package. "
"He don't oughta be ashamed about no tiny chin-chin. I don't wanna see no big chin-chin in a bike shorts. Makes me sick, looking nasty all sticking out like bones and bagels."
"Dudes I ride with, you won't have to worry about that."
"Onna bike I don't wanna see no big nasty chin-chin poking in the lycra shorty pants with a pokey tip. Tiny chin-chin fits in the pants nice and don't make a bump. Like a girl's jeans. That's why a boy's jeans look nasty and not smooth. Gotta big lumpy donut and pokey in the middle not girl's smooth line."
"I'll try to remember that the next time I go shopping for jeans."
"But offa bike without no shorts it's okay if a big chin-chin. But not too big like a German sausage. Kind of middle size is best. Offa bike tiny chin-chin it's a kind of like a bumblebee who's not got the stinger. It's the disappointment."
We pulled up to the dude at the light. Mrs. Wankmeister rolled down the window. "Don't you worry about your chin-chin!" she said with a smile.
"My what?"
"Your chin-chin. It's a okay one nobody looking it just don't poke out like bones and bagels."
Dude looked seriously fucking perplexed. Then we drove off.

Mr. & Mrs. WM – you are just what I needed to start off this day laughing my *** off!
No comment on the best size of a chin-chin, other than, if it's too small, thank god for the pleasure chest!!!!
Mrs W., by virtue of her gender, got away with blatant sexual harassment, as did a certain USAF Major's wife in Japan who rolled down (windows rolled down back then) her window when she saw a guy relieving himself (they did that back then) roadside and yelled "Chisai"! Just imagine the consequences had you commented on a female rider's cameltoe. Tomorrow; cameltoes.
Don't play coy with me Mr. W! Don't tell me that you haven't swayed back and forth, if not "rocked" (I hate that word in current usage) to Fanny Pack, singing "Cameltoe" or The Black Eyed Pea's "My Hump", nor composed a few cameltoe haiku and submitted them anonymously to "The Camel Toe Report" . You don't have anyone fooled.
And I can I imagine how Ms. W responded, having been a little Pearl Harbor almost every day of the past 45 years.
Maybe he was just going for that amekaji look.
Oh my goodness! Awesome article dude! Thank you, However
I am having issues with your RSS. I don't understand the reason why I am unable to subscribe to it. Is there anyone else having similar RSS problems? Anyone that knows the answer can you kindly respond? Thanks!!

Free Beer & Hot Wings: Is This the Best Way to Ask a Girl Out? [Video]
There are some pretty creative ways of guys asking girls out and vice versa.
But this might be the way that tops them all.
What these guys do is pure brilliance!
One guy walks up to a girl, or group of girls, and tells her that he wants to ask a girl out but doesn't quite know how to do it. He gets the advice from the girl(s), and tells his buddy what advice she had given. Then, his friend goes back and asks that girl out exactly as she advised the other guy to do.
And it worked!
The reactions of all of these girls in this video are priceless and awkwardly enjoyable.
So, watch this video and take some notes!

CTA Also Backs Feinstein's Federal Gun Safety Bill
BURLINGAME - Taking a stand to make California's public schools safer and even more secure, the California Teachers Association is opposing any efforts to arm educators across the state, and is supporting Senator Dianne Feinstein's legislation to ban military-style assault weapons.
The positions, made with the safety of students and all school stakeholders in mind, were taken over the weekend by the 760 teacher-delegates on the State Council of Education, CTA's top governing body, at its quarterly meeting in Los Angeles. Delegates approved new policy opposing "the arming of non-law enforcement educational professionals or volunteers on school campuses or at school-related functions."
"Instead of arming teachers, California needs more school counselors, more access for students to mental health services, safer facilities, and more training for educators to spot the mental health needs of students and bullying or other high-risk behaviors," said Dean E. Vogel, president of the 325,000-member California Teachers Association and a school counselor.
Noting that the state ranks last in the nation in the number of counselors per student, Vogel said, "I welcome debates not about guns, but about what it takes to make sure our students' physical and emotional needs are met so they can be successful academically and in life."
In the aftermath of the Newtown school massacre of 20 children and six educators, Senator Feinstein introduced her Assault Weapons Ban of 2013 to ban the sale, importation and manufacture of 157 military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines. CTA is affiliated with the 3.2 million-member National Education Association. The NEA also supports Feinstein's legislation and opposes arming educators, as proposed by the National Rifle Association. That's a "preposterous, cynical and unworkable solution" to violence at schools, Vogel said of the NRA idea.
CTA's concerns come as Stockton educators are remembering one of the first mass school shootings in the nation in January 1989, when a gunman with an AK-47 killed five children and wounded 29 others at Cleveland Elementary School. There have been at least 10 on-campus shootings in California since then.
The 325,000-member CTA is affiliated with the 3.2 million-member National Education Association.

The trouble with this is simply, that some modern BIOS store more information than others, especially in areas not accessible by /dev/nvram. SuperMicro has a few boards storing 256 byte(?) instead of he allowed 114 bytes. Also, at least in some of their A-series boards they seem to store the date of the last flash (or something related), thus even hacking the kernel module to read more data would not help much, since the md5 hash of each image will differ anyway. Thus one would have to reverse engineer where what is stored... quite a hassle. Cheers Carsten

During the summer months I love making and serving chilled soups for a jazzy first course, breezy lunch or light supper. Aromatic basil along with ripe, juicy tomatoes are at the height of their season in July and August, making it the ideal time to purchase them from your local farmers' market to prepare this refreshing soup. On days when it's too hot to cook, this sassy soup packed with produce is the perfect starter or light main course for a get-together with friends. It's also ideal for picnics. Once it's chilled, just pour it into a thermos to keep it cold and you're good to go.
Zesty Summer Gazpacho
4 ripe tomatoes, quartered
4 stalks celery, with leaves, coarsely chopped
1 small onion, quartered
1⁄3 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, lightly packed
1⁄4 cup fresh basil leaves, lightly packed
1 to 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ to 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium tamari
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1 clove garlic
Sea salt (optional)
Several grinds freshly ground pepper
Chopped fresh basil or parsely, for garnish
Put the tomatoes, celery, onion, parsley, basil leaves, vinegar, chili powder, tamari, and garlic in a large bowl and stir to combine. Put half of the mixture in a blender and process until slightly chunky. Pour into a large bowl or pitcher. Repeat with the remaining mixture, then stir the two batches together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours before serving.
About 30 minutes before serving, chill four to six bowls or mugs. To serve, ladle the gazpacho into the chilled bowls. Garnish with a bit of chopped basil, if desired. Serve immediately.
