[Earn CPE] Cornerstones to Fortify Your Enterprise Cybersecurity Defense
Nov 19 2019
6:00 pm
75 mins
Panel Moderated by Colin Whittaker, Founder of Informed Risk Decisions.
The enterprise cybersecurity landscape is dramatically expanding in scale and complexity, and cyberattacks are growing in magnitude and impact as digital transformation increases on a global scale. From phishing scams, to ransomware attacks, to malicious breaches from state actors, the potential threat to your business is huge. According to the Ponemon Institute, the average per breach cost to a company in 2018 was estimated at $3.86 million, an increase of 6.4 percent over the previous year.
Even though cybersecurity presents a challenge to the enterprise, you are not helpless against the bad actors who seek to cause real and costly damage to your business. A proactive, company-wide, integrated digital security strategy that addresses cybersecurity threats at all levels of your business will provide you with both the offensive and defensive capabilities you need to handle whatever comes your way. Earn 1 CPE credit by attending this educational and interactive panel webinar. Our experts will discuss why fortifying your cybersecurity strategy should be a critical priority and highlight some best practices that you can employ to stay ahead of evolving threats, including how to;
- Understand the changing cyberattack landscape,

[Earn CPE] Preventing Data Breaches with a Scalable Verification Program
Sep 10 2019
5:00 pm
75 mins
Moderated By Colin Whittaker. Panelists: Nathan Rowe, Evident ID; Jeremy Grant, the Better Identity Coalition.
Consumer demand is driving the corporate IT environment. Business demands for IT are changing rapidly — so too are the demands on IAM — resulting in the requirement to adopt emerging technologies (e.g., mobile and cloud computing, data loss prevention, and social media) earlier and more quickly. Scalability is critical for any business that wants to catalyze short- and long-term success. A flexible workflow for identity verification can help organizations of all sizes with limited time, resources, and funding to focus their efforts on initiatives that support positive growth. While your business might be conducting background checks today, it could have different verification needs in the future to ease onboarding friction, prevent data breaches, and demonstrate regulatory compliance.
It's important to begin laying the groundwork now for a more sophisticated and intricate verification program so you can be proactive, not reactive, but what does a scalability strategy look like? In this CPE accredited panel webinar our experts will address how to create identity and credential verification workflows that can scale with your organization as it grows, including how to:
- Gain a better understanding of the digital identity landscape,
- Ensure accuracy of both data sources and verification records,
- Centralize verification of multiple data sources into a unified platform,
- Evaluate new developments like biometrics, AI, and blockchain, and how they can impact identity and data management,
- Save money in the long-term by laying the groundwork for adaptable online verification workflows,
- Adapt and respond to new regulations.

[Earn CPE] Automating Your Third-Party Risk Management Program
Jul 25 2019
5:00 pm
75 mins
Colin Whittaker, IRD; Chris Poulin, BitSight; Jason Sabourin, OneTrust; Syuyin Leow, LogicGate; Todd Boehler, ProcessUnity.
The current state of vendor risk management (VRM) is bleak. More than half of all information security breaches are caused by third-party vendors, and according to Deloitte 83% of today's business leaders lack confidence in third party VRM processes. Given the growing complexities in accurately collecting and screening third-party data and the need for deeper due diligence, automation is key to a successful risk program. However, many corporations haven't adopted automation in their third-party risk management programs.
The lack of automation adoption can be traced to a few core reasons. Disparate systems, out-of-date data, and inconsistent policies can all stifle a company's ability to modernize their third-party risk management program, and companies often suffer from more than one of these. When applied effectively, automation can not only help prevent these roadblocks; it can also drive the efficiencies procurement and compliance leaders are looking for. Join this CPE accredited panel webinar as our expert panel address some key steps to automating third-party risk management, including how to:
-Manage an up-to-date vendor master to create one source of truth across the entire corporation,
-Leverage automation and machine learning to standardize data governance,
-Drive efficiencies and reduces costs, while ensuring the highest accuracy in your third-party risk management program.

Emerging Data Privacy and Security for Cloud
Jul 18 2019
58 mins
Ulf Mattsson, Head of Innovation, TokenEx
Personal data privacy will be the most prominent issue affecting how businesses gather, store, process, and disclose data in public cloud. Businesses have been inundated with information on what recent privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA require, but many are still trying to figure out how to comply with them on a practical level. Many companies are focusing on data privacy from the legal and security side, which are foundational, but are missing the focus on data.
The good news is that these data privacy regulations compel businesses to get a handle on personal data — how they get it, where they get it from, which systems process it, where it goes internally and externally, etc. In other words, the new norms of data privacy require proactive data management, which enables organizations to extract real business value from their data, improve the customer experience, streamline internal processes, and better understand their customers.
Join this interactive webinar to learn more about:
- The latest trends and strategies for securing sensitive data in cloud and the enterprise
- How to discover and capture your data inventory
- What's needed to prevent a data breach by securing your critical data and protect your reputation

[Earn CPE] Executive's Guide to Smarter GRC with Cybersecurity Attack Analytics
Jun 27 2019
77 mins
Panelists: Sam Abadir, Lockpath; James Rice, Greenlight Technologies; Ilia Sotnikov,Netwrix; and Jason Bonds, Ping Identity.
Today's increasing organizational complexity and evolving threat environment have made it more critical than ever for organizations to clearly identify their exposures, measure vulnerability risk, and quickly prioritize remediation efforts. Cyberattacks are often hidden from view under a mountain of alerts generated by security systems, giving attackers time to gain access to systems and seize valuable data.
To ensure their companies don't end up in the headlines for the wrong reasons, corporate governance, risk management, compliance management and other "lines of defense" functions need to rethink their security strategy and take an approach that looks at behavior and attack patterns. By conecting cybersecurity attack analytics with risk programs and GRC work streams, executives can increase visibility into the overall security risk of the organization which makes the investigation of application security events easy, and enables teams to mitigate and respond to real security threats quickly and decisively.
Join this CPE panel webinar for insights on achieving smarter GRC with CAA. We will share:
- Why traditional endpoint security is failing to see and stop attacks.
- How using attack analytics can stop cyberattacks now and in the future.
- Efficient ways to analyze events and prevent threats.
- How to move from looking back to real-time and forward-looking GRC monitoring.

[Earn CPE] Enabling GRC with Secure Authentication across the Digital Ecosystem
Jun 11 2019
76 mins
Colin Whittaker, IRD; Richard Bird, Ping Identity; Teju Shyamsundar, Okta, Jerrod Chong, Yubico; and Andy Smith, Centrify.
The days of securing a well-defined perimeter around your organization are gone. The cloud, mobile technologies, the internet of things (IoT) and diverse user groups freely exchange data across digital ecosystems, network and economies. This fluidity, however, means that organizations must secure access at multiple points throughout the organization, or risk letting in intruders seeking to hijack data.
To manage the increasingly diverse digital landscape, IT and security managers need to move beyond usernames and passwords, and expand their use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to help provide secure and convenient access to the critical data and systems users need. On this webinar our panel of experts will address how secure authentication can help enable GRC across the digital ecosystem, and they will share tips on:
- Securing access at all points across applications, devices, users and environments.
- Sharing insights across security systems to strengthen security.
- Collecting and analyzing information to stop attacks.
- How MFA can transform secure access—to any application, from any device, anywhere, at any time.
- Strengthening identity assurance with privileged users.

Allan Boardman, CGEIT Certification Committee Member, ISACA
Watch the exclusive interactive interview with ISACA, Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) Certification Committee Member, Allan Boardman at Infosecurity Europe 2019.
Questions asked;
- I saw that ISACA released the 2019 State of Cybersecurity research – The report states that attack vectors remain largely the same, but that cybercrime may be vastly underreported. Why is this?
- The ISACA research also states that only 1 in 3 cybersecurity leaders have high levels of confidence in their cybersecurity team's ability to detect and respond to cyberthreats. The highest levels of confidence came from teams that report directly to the CISO, and the lowest levels came from teams that report to the CIO. What do you think this tells us about these different roles in organizations - what reporting structures are better, and what could be done to boost awareness and confidence in the cyber team?
- Let's talk about what's happening in the threat landscape. What are the biggest tech challenges keeping business leaders up at night?
- And similarly, what are the biggest business challenges and threats keeping leaders up at night?
- What advice do you have for new professionals? What are the most important skills they should acquire for career success?

Tesla to stop supplying batteries for Toyota
With its own crossover in the works, electric-vehicle maker Tesla Motors says it is going to stop supplying battery packs and motors for Toyota, which uses them in the electric RAV4.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in a quarterly financial disclosure filed Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It says the deal was worth $15.1 million.
Toyota doesn't break out the sale of the electric version of its RAV4, but it's fair to say it's a small-volume vehicle. Yet, it has roughly the same powerplant as the Tesla Model S for up to half the cost. The electric RAV4 retails for about $50,000.
Tesla's filing said the company recognized $15.1 million in automotive sales revenue under the deal during the three months ended March 31. That compared with $14.4 million for the same period last year.
Meanwhile, Tesla is working on its own crossover. The Model X, as it is known, has been delayed, but when it hits the market it should be fairly startling, with upward-opening gullwing doors for back-seat passengers. It is likely, however, to cost a lot more more than the electric RAV4.
Tesla is our chart of the day Monday, May 12, 2014: the company just last week beat on the top and bottom line but saw shares take a hit after it was clear the company is struggling to meet buyer demand. Newslook

AOL just announced that it's renamed the Advertising.com Group.
The new name is AOL Networks.
AOL is not renaming its ad network, Advertising.com.
Just the group that it was part of, the Advertising.com Group.
Make sense?
Here's the release:
AOL today announced that Advertising.com Group has officially been renamed AOL Networks. The new brand, AOL Networks, aligns with its parent brand AOL, and should help all stakeholders better understand the rich stack of assets and robust technology it brings together for its nearly 20,000 publishers1 and 4,000 advertiser and agency clients2. The new name clearly represents the recognised cross-screen offerings across premium, programmatic and performance advertising.
"AOL Networks will continue to offer global advertising solutions that help increase yield through a rich and broad set of platforms, formats, and technologies," said Ned Brody, CEO of AOL Networks. "We have heard from many clients that there is an increasing number of systems and partners they need to do business with to accomplish their online marketing objectives. The group's mission has always been to simplify digital advertising at scale."

Gadhafi was captured alive; how he died is in dispute
SIRTE, Libya — Former Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi asked his captors twice, "What do you want from me?" as they swarmed around him Thursday, according to video footage shot at the scene by a Libyan journalist. By early afternoon, he was dead, but how he died remained in dispute.
In one version, recounted by a reporter for the Arabic-language satellite channel al Arabiya, the former dictator was shot moments after his capture by an 18-year-old revolutionary fighter who was hailed as a hero by his comrades in arms.
In the other, told by officials of Libya's interim government in Tripoli, Gadhafi died en route to a hospital for treatment of wounds he suffered when the convoy he was riding in was hit by a NATO airstrike that preceded his detention.
Either way, Gadhafi's death after revolutionary fighters found him hiding in a drainage pipe in his hometown of Sirte was an ignominious end for an over-the-top ruler who gained worldwide notoriety with his flamboyant personal tastes and calculating geopolitical games.
Tripoli, the capital, and other Libyan cities erupted in volleys of gunfire and nonstop horn-honking as Libyans celebrated the demise of the eccentric despot who'd ruled them for 42 years, turning the oil-rich nation into a pariah state through his ill-fated military adventures and documented support for terrorist groups.
"I feel now that my children will rest in peace because the cause of their death is gone," said Ahmed Essa, 56, a tearful businessman whose two sons were killed in the NATO-backed war against Gadhafi's forces. "The country's priority should be collecting the weapons from all the young people and starting the process of building a new and better future for Libya."
Even with Gadhafi's dominating presence gone, Libya's interim authorities face serious obstacles to their goal of assembling a formal caretaker government and staging elections within eight months. But the deeply rooted regional and ideological divisions were shelved for a moment, at least, as Libyans rallied around the news that not only Gadhafi, but several members of his inner circle, had been killed or captured in a single day.
The bloodied corpse of Gadhafi's son and national security adviser, Moatassim, was paraded before TV cameras, though grainy video footage appeared to show that he, too, had been alive upon capture.
Saif al Islam, another son and onetime presumed successor, was reported wounded and in custody of revolutionary forces, though conflicting reports said he'd been killed as well.
Gadhafi's defense minister, Abu Bakr Younis Jabr, also was said to have been alive at capture but was later identified as among the dead, according to news reports. The information couldn't be independently verified.
"Today we can definitively say that the Gadhafi regime has come to an end," President Barack Obama said in the Rose Garden of the White House. "The last major regime strongholds have fallen. A new government is consolidating control over the country. One of the world's longest-serving dictators is no more."
A plethora of amateur videos surfaced to chronicle Gadhafi's last moments. Warning: Graphic content
In one, a khaki-clad man identified as Gadhafi appears wounded, splayed out on the hood of a truck. He's wounded, his shirt bloody. Revolutionary fighters haul him to a standing position, then surround him, pushing him away from the camera before he turns and seems to gesture.
"We want him alive," one man can be heard saying.
Another clip, obviously shot later, shows a man who appears to be the now dead deposed leader lying in the street, stripped half-naked and splattered with blood. Bystanders chanting, "God is great!" can be seen kicking him.
In yet another video, Gadhafi's battered face, his eyes partially closed in death, is held up to the camera for a close-up before the camera operator pans away to show about a dozen revolutionary fighters shouting and flashing victory signs as they jostled for positions in the picture.
The short videos instantly became iconic images for the Arab Spring protests: a despotic Middle Eastern ruler forced out of power and killed by his people in a popular uprising that turned into an armed rebellion. The image of Gadhafi's bloody face is sure to send chills among other embattled Middle Eastern leaders such as Syria's Bashar Assad and Yemen's Ali Abdullah Saleh.
"This is the end of the war and the emancipation proclamation of Libya," said Fatima Ben Massoud, 30, a schoolteacher in Tripoli.
There was no definitive version of Gadhafi's last day, however. Instead, bits and pieces emerged from eyewitness accounts and video footage that gave a sense of what took place, but with many questions still to be answered.
A doctor who was part of the medical team that accompanied Gadhafi's body in an ambulance and examined it told the Associated Press that Gadhafi had died from two bullet wounds, to the head and chest.
Al Arabiya reported that the fatal shots were fired by an 18-year-old revolutionary fighter named Ahmed Shebani, who was photographed holding a golden handgun while being hoisted onto the shoulders of his cheering comrades. There was no official confirmation of this account, but the British Broadcasting Corp. later offered substantially the same story, adding that the handgun had been taken from Gadhafi himself, then turned on the former dictator.
The French defense minister said a French aircraft had struck a convoy, and a NATO spokesman confirmed that its forces had struck armed military vehicles that were part of a larger contingent in the vicinity of Sirte. But the NATO spokesman couldn't verify whether Gadhafi or other senior regime figures were among the convoy's casualties. A Pentagon spokesman, Navy Capt. John Kirby, confirmed that a NATO aircraft had struck near Sirte, but declined to give its nationality.
A McClatchy special correspondent in Sirte said that predawn explosions — likely by NATO aircraft — rocked the city around 3 a.m., followed by an advance later that morning into the city by revolutionary forces, which captured the city without a fight.
About 1 p.m., reports began circulating that a 40-car convoy outside the city had been bombed by NATO warplanes around noon.
According to a video shot at the scene by a Libyan journalist, a revolutionary brigade commander named Ziyad said that after the convoy was bombed, his fighters found Gadhafi in a drainage pipe below the roadside. Pro-Gadhafi gunmen fired on the brigade but were killed, and when the revolutionary fighters found Gadhafi, the fugitive ex-leader asked, twice, "What do you want from me?"
Ziyad, commander of a Misrata-based contingent called the Tajine brigade, said that Gadhafi had been shot and was bleeding but alive when vehicles carried him away from the scene. Ziyad said he didn't know the circumstances of Gadhafi's death.
But there was no doubt about what the death would mean at least in one sense in Libya: The upcoming political process won't be overshadowed by a protracted trial that might have stoked internecine tensions and given Gadhafi a platform to distract from pressing transitional matters with more of his signature rambling tirades.
"This will mean that everyone in Libya can exhale," said Lisa Anderson, president of the American University in Cairo and a noted Libya expert. She predicted a period of relaxed tensions that would give the National Transitional Council, which has been Libya's de facto ruling authority since August, space to tackle "the challenges of constructing genuine public debate about the future of the country and deciding how to deal with the stalwarts of the old regime."
But pressures also are expected to mount on the council, which has been seen as lacking credibility and cohesion, because it will no longer have the ongoing search for Gadhafi as an excuse for what critics call its sluggish, uncoordinated handling of transitional affairs so far.
The council's mostly self-appointed leadership is riven with regional, tribal and ideological divisions, and Gadhafi's death, analysts warned, wasn't a silver bullet for serious problems that have yet to be resolved. Chief among those problems is the disarming and reintegration of thousands of revolutionary militiamen who are more loyal to individual commanders than to a central government.
It's now up to the National Transitional Council to prove it can move beyond infighting and form a credible, internationally supported caretaker body to secure and guide Libya through the drafting of a constitution and preparing for elections, said Shashank Joshi, a London-based analyst who follows Libya for the Royal United Services Institute.
Joshi said Gadhafi's death would lead to a momentary bump in unity among transitional council leaders and could boost their credibility before the public, especially if they fulfill their promises to step aside in favor of more popular figures. But the outlook is less rosy for the long term.
"Following that, some of these divisions will come back to the fore because they exist independently of Gadhafi and will outlive him," Joshi said.

NORTHAMPTON, Mass. – The Brandeis University fencing team had a fine showing at the season-opening New England Fall Collegiate Invitational, also known as The Big One, at Smith College. The Judges had three medalists, led by rookie Caroline Matos (Cumberland, R.I./LaSalle Acad.) who won the foil on the women's side, while sophomores Adam Mandel (White Plains, N.Y./Masters School) and Jess Ochs-Willard (Montclair, N.J./Montclair) earned silver and bronze, respectively, in men's saber competition.
For the Brandeis men, the Judges had three of the top 10 finishers and four of the top 13 in the saber. Mandel matched Matos's pool play mark by winning all six of his bouts by a combined 30-1 score, while Ochs Willard had a 30-7 scoring edge to go undefeated. Mandel rolled into the semifinals, including a 15-9 win over teammate Ben Loft (Basking Ridge, N.J./Ridge) in the quarters. In the semifinals, Mandel edged Brown's Denis Dukhavalov, 15-14, before dropping the title match to eighth-seed Nick Deak, also of Brown. Ochs-Willard also did not allow his opponents within seven points en route to the semifinals, with his closest bout also against a teammate, rookie Eric Shen (Mountainside, N.J./Governor Livingston) in the round of 16. Ochs-Willard won, 15-6, over Boston College's Devin Midgley in the quarterfinals before falling to Deak, 15-10, in the semis.
Sophomore Noah Berman (Palo Alto, Calif./Palo Alto) placed sixth in the foil competition. Berman outscored his opponents, 30-5, in pool play, to go 6-0 and earn the second seed. Berman rolled through the first two rounds of elimination play by allowing just three combined touches. He earned a 15-10 win in the round off 16 over Joe Fiacco of Sacred Heard before bowing to SHU's eventual champion Stuart Holmes, 15-9, in the quarters.
Top finishers for the Judges in the men's epee competition were seniors Harry Kaufer (Newton, Mass./Newton South) and Mike Zook (Chicago, Ill./University of Chicago Lab School) and rookie Tom Hearne (Holmdel, N.J./Ranney School), who each reached the round of 16 of the elimination tournament after going 5-1 in pool play action.
Matos was outstanding in her collegiate debut, going 6-0 in pool play, scoring 30 touches while allowing just one in five-point bouts, sharing the top seed. She rolled through the 15-point bouts in the quarterfinals of the elimination bracket, with 45 touches scored to just four allowed. In the quarters, Matos had her closest match, defeating Linda Zhang of Boston College, 15-9. After a 15-7 win over Vassar's Katie LeClair in the semifinals, Matos won the gold with a convincing 15-4 win over third-seeded Jayme Smith of Sacred Heart University.
Other highlights on the women's side came from senior captain Zoe Messinger (Short Hills, N.J./Millburn) in the saber, who went 5-0 in the prelims and reached the quarterfinals, where she fell to silver medalist Robin Shin of MIT. Classmate Emmily Smith (Stony Brook, N.Y./Ward-Melville) went 4-1 in pool play and fell to Shin in the round of 16. The epee squad was paced by rookie Gwen Mowell (Wyckoff, N.J./Indian Hills), who went 5-0 in pool play to earn the seventh seed in the elimination tournament, but was knocked off in the second round by rookie teammate Rosa Zhang (E. Setauket, N.Y./Ward-Melville).
The Judges return to action on Nov. 17 in the first Northeastern Fencing Conference meet of the season at MIT.

When Jayden was a baby, his bouncer was an absolute must-have. While I wore him most of the day in a wrap, there were times when I needed to put him down in order to take a shower. Whenever I took a shower, I brought the bouncer in the bathroom with me and he would be content. Jaxon, like his big brother comes along with when Mommy needs to take a shower. We kept the bouncer, but he hasn't been too interested in it. Instead, he loves his Bright Starts Portable Swing from the Sunnyside Safari collection. It's funny how babies have their own personal preferences.
The swing is amazing! I mean, it's a simple swing, but sometimes simplicity minus all the bells and whistles is best. The Bright Starts Portable Swing is very light-weight and folds up easily for transporting or storing in small spaces. The padded seat is also very durable and machine washable. Ours has been through a few diaper accidents and washes and it is just as bright and whimsical as it was the first day we started using it. The seat reclines in two positions. We've kept it on the lowest position from newborn to six months.
The Bright Starts Portable Swing has six speeds to choose from, all of which are super quiet and consistent even as baby grows. We usually default to the third speed and when the batteries are running low, we crank it up to six.
Yes, I realize the straps are a little weird, but I didn't want to wake him shuffling around. :-)
{heart} It
Bright Starts has exceeded my expectations on the Sunnyside Safari Portable Swing. At $45.00 ($39.00 at Walmart), you have an affordable and very practical travel swing that will keep baby content during a visit at grandma's or a quick shower. Sidenote: If you're looking for a bounce pad/saucer, may I suggest the Bounce Bounce Baby – another budget friendly Brights Starts fav!

Snowboarding Like the Beach Boys Surf
"I've snowboarded once," Michael Stasis admitted when I asked him about Snowboarder, his new collaboration with Jason Kick and David Nichols. "It's like the Beach Boys didn't surf." The trio's got harmonized pop songcraft to back up that reference, but instead they list "devils" as their primary influence and "hell" as their general manager.
Snowboarder's self-titled debut offers seven tracks of warped, hook-laden jams for your real or imagined snowboarding trips. The opening track "Sled Dogs" takes off on a bent guitar wail over jangle pop powder, then flips a 180 into a cinematic bridge. The next verse describes some kind of coke iditarod, landing unexpectedly in a torrent of radical metal riffs. Elsewhere, Snowboarder rides everything from 80's dance pop ("Poppers") to industrial nursery rhymes on Sulfur Hexafluoride ("Going Up The Mountain").
Jason Kick is best known for his work in San Francisco synth-pop favorites Maus Haus whose motorik, hypnotic rhythms earned them "Band of the Year" in SF Deli Mag. They also seem to have influenced some of the recent work of Snowboarder collaborator Michael Stasis. A talented solo artist, Stasis first caught our ear via Phoning It In's tip on his Natural Resources cassette: "a perfect lo-fi pop-psych-folk concoction in the lineage of Ariel Pink or Guided By Voices."

Yale Improves To 5-1 In Ivy Play
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Despite playing very well for the first 30 minutes, Yale found itself in a dogfight late in Saturday's game with Princeton. For the second straight night, though, the Bulldogs were solid down the stretch, and the result was an impressive 58-54 victory over the Tigers before an Alumni Day crowd of 2,175 at the John J. Lee Amphitheater.
The win completed an important weekend sweep for Yale, which scored the game's final 10 points on Friday to knock off Penn 60-53.
"Our guys did a really good job of staying focused," said James Jones, The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball. "We did all that was necessary to win the game."
It started on the defensive end. The Bulldogs held Princeton to just 33.3 percent shooting from the field, one night after limiting Penn to 38.6 percent.
"The anchor for us all weekend was defense," Jones said. "We were able to get stops."
Greg Mangano and Reggie Willhite supplied much of the offense in Saturday's victory. Both players finished with 20 points. In addition, Mangano grabbed 12 rebounds, and Willhite added nine rebounds and three assists.
The sweep was Yale's first over Penn and Princeton since the 2006-07 season.
"It feels amazing," Willhite said. "We knew how important it was to get a sweep. Penn and Princeton are always difficult games, but we played a gritty game and were able to get it done down the stretch."
The victory improved the Bulldogs to 5-1 in Ivy play. They trail first-place Harvard (6-0) by one game.
Five of Yale's six league games have come in the friendly confines of Lee Amphitheater, but the next four will be away from home.
"You've got to protect your home court," Jones said. "It's always a little more difficult on the road, but hopefully this will give us some confidence."
Early in the second half, it looked like the Bulldogs might cruise to victory over the Tigers. Willhite's layup put Yale ahead by 13 just two minutes in. The lead stayed at or near double digits until Princeton used an 11-4 run to cut the deficit to 48-44 with 6:37 remaining.
The Tigers (11-10, 2-3 Ivy) pulled within two, 53-51, on Mack Darrow's layup, but Jeremiah Kreisberg answered with two free throws with 29 seconds left. After a Mangano free throw, Princeton got back within three on another Darrow layup, but Austin Morgan made one of two free throws with five seconds left to seal the victory.
"Our offense got stagnant and I thought we took some ill-advised shots," Jones said of letting Princeton back in the game.
Kreisberg finished with nine points, while Morgan scored five for the Bulldogs, who have won three straight games. Jesse Pritchard contributed seven rebounds off the bench.
Ian Hummer led Princeton with 18 points, including the 1,000th of his career.
Yale had a 45-34 edge in rebounding, but shot just 35.1 percent from the field in the game.
NOTES: Both teams struggled mightily from three-point range. Princeton was just 4-of-21 from beyond the arc, while the Bulldogs were 3-of-20… After averaging 19.3 turnovers in its previous three games, Yale committed just 10… There was a large contingent of alumni on hand, including several from the 2001-02 team that earned a share of the Ivy League title… The Bulldogs will play at Cornell on Friday and then travel to Columbia on Saturday. Both games begin at 7 p.m.

The Great TIBS/Whisky Live Tokyo 2013 Interview
With less than a month to go until the weekend-long highlight of the whisky year in Japan, we thought it was high time we spoke to the masterminds behind the Tokyo International BarShow / Whisky Live about their plans for this year's edition.
TIBS: The theme of this, the 2nd Tokyo International BarShow and Whisky Live Tokyo, is "Legends & Rising Stars". Although the title was devised around the four guest bartenders who will be gracing the main stage and also hosting bartending seminars, it can equally be applied to the range of whiskies and other spirits available, where old, established brands like Glenlivet and Yamazaki can be sampled alongside the likes of relative newcomers such as Kilchoman and Chichibu.
Nonjatta: After just two years in Tokyo Midtown in Roppongi, the show is moving to a different venue.
TIBS: Yes, the decision was taken to move venues again this year. Why? Simply because of space constraints; last year as well as having to refuse a couple of potential exhibitors, the event itself was becoming overcrowded at times, which not only presents safety concerns, but also detracts from visitors' enjoyment.
Anybody who has staged an event of any size in Tokyo will know that there are surprisingly few centrally located venues. We wanted to keep the convenience of Roppongi but needed more space; after investigating probably 50 potential sites with our event company, it was judged that Shibuya Garden Belle Salle offered the best balance of location and size.
Nonjatta: You've also decided to drop the masterclasses. We're quite curious as to why you decided to change this, seeing as they were always very popular.
TIBS: The decision to drop the Masterclass program was largely driven by the choice of venue - there are no seminar rooms at Belle Salle. We had however been thinking about tweaking the Masterclass format anyway. It was felt by some that it was getting a little tired with the same brands hosting every year. Last year we introduced a mini-stage with Dave Broom in the Whisky Room and this proved very popular with both visitors and exhibitors alike. What we've done therefore is extend that format to a 2–day program of 44 mini-seminars, each of 20 minutes' duration and free for participants.Each session is limited to just 50 people and tickets can be obtained in a variety of ways; details are on the TIBS website.
TIBS: This year we have 4 official TIBS bottlings: from Chichibu (2009), Hanyu (1990), Karuizawa (2000) & Yamazaki. The first three are from single casks (two from closed distilleries, one from a newly opened one), whilst the Yamazaki is a very special 100% mizunara bottling, containing whiskies blended from several different vintages, centred on the 1984 and with an average age of over 21 years old.
Nonjatta: How can people get their hands on a bottle?
TIBS: Well, all of the bottles will be available for order at the event from any of the participating liquor shops. More details can again be found at the TIBS website.
Also, several brands will again be undoubtedly launching special bottlings to coincide with the show. Details of these will be available from the importers/producers.
Nonjatta: Last year, just before the inaugural TIBS, you launched Bond#1. Dave Broom held a special tasting at Shinjuku's Golden Gai for the first members the day before the show. What is Bond#1 offering its members this year?
TIBS: Dave Broom, Whisky Magazine Japan Editor-in-Chief, Whisky Live host and Bond#1 Director, has had an extremely busy 12 months and will be making his first visit to Japan since last year's BarShow. To thank the loyal members of Bond#1, Dave will be hosting a very special tasting on the eve of the BarShow at the Park Hotel Tokyo, where there will be the first opportunity to taste not only the four official TIBS bottlings but also a range of other special bottlings for the BarShow and some of the recent winners in the World Whiskies Awards. [Ed. This will be limited to 50 places and it's free. To secure your place, visit this link.] In its inaugural year, Bond #1 has offered members a variety of exclusive bottlings, tastings with Dave in Golden Gai and at Whisky Live Taipei, special invitations to a number of industry events, plus a variety of gifts & prizes. A number of new initiatives are currently in the works that will further extend the benefits of membership.
TIBS: We're often asked whether the Tokyo International BarShow & Whisky Live is a trade or a consumer event. Without wishing to sound like we're sitting on the wall, the event is designed to appeal to people at every level of connoisseurship, knowledge and experience. Anybody just finding their way in the world of fine spirits can browse the various exhibitor booths at a leisurely pace, discovering for themselves the sheer range of flavours and styles on offer. Those more experienced drinkers can hunt out the many new and limited bottlings available at the BarShow, also making use of the fantastic value offered by the Premium Voucher scheme to taste the truly rare. Those in the trade from both Japan and overseas have a forum in which to exchange ideas, experiences and techniques.
We're particularly happy to welcome overseas visitors to the Show; Japan is a long way away for many people and is not the cheapest country in the world to travel to, but using the BarShow as a springboard for a visit offers the opportunity to travel to some of Japan's distilleries, explore its many wonderful bars and discover some rare bottlings on the well-stocked shelves of its retailers.
Nonjatta: Where can people purchase tickets in English?
TIBS: Tickets can be purchased at the English language webshop here. Payment is by credit card and tickets can be collected at the door.
Nonjatta: Thanks very much. Nonjatta will be covering the show in depth, so even those who can't be there in person, will be able to get a feel for what's happening in Tokyo on April 20th and 21st. Thanks again.
TIBS: Our pleasure.

This is hands down on my top 5 list of things I've done/seen, since living in Japan. I went to this last year thinking it was just a show for Japanese whiskey's. Nope. It had a LOT more than that, to include an overwhelming selection of Scotch and American whiskey's. All the big name labels are there and tons of up and coming brands (plus a plethera of mixed drinks, especially helpful if one's wife is with you and doesn't enjoy whiskey that much). I was overwhelmed and stopped being able to "taste" the whiskey after about 3 hours ( I said I stopped tasting, not stopped drinking...). I'm in the US military, stationed in Japan, and unfortunately deployed. I'll be missing it this year and I'm terribly bummed out about it. I could write pages on how incredible this event is. If you're even contemplating it, don't. Just cough it up and go. The fact that it's at a bigger venue and has more brands this year should excite you to no end. To all of you going, good luck and I'm supremely jealous!

I couldn't agree more, Thomas, but it's nice to hear it from someone else, too! Hope you'll be able to make it next year. Thanks again for your great feedback.

DR Russell McKenzie, an associate professor at Southeastern Louisiana University Department of Management and Business Administration, is rather pleased with the guy he has secured to speak to students and the public about the economic cost of cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
"We are honored to have someone of his stature speaking," he told an online university community newspaper. In another story, Dr McKenzie added: "It's not every day you have the opportunity to have a world renowned speaker to come to Southeastern".
So who is this global powerhouse on climate change and economics? Sir Nicholas Stern, perhaps, author of the UK government's "Stern Review"? Could it be James Hansen, head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies and famed climate scientist?
No. The "world renowned speaker" appearing at Southeastern Louisiana University on 2 October is none other than Lord Christopher Monckton, the British hereditary peer who believes climate scientists are part of a plot to introduce a socialist world government.

Hello from the Internet AUStars Tour in Australia, where Nikhil Parekh and I are hosting a 10-day Internet Marketing extravaganza across three Australian cities – Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
Simon Leung and Nikhil Parekh at Internet AUStars
After organizing several of our own workshops this year covering Internet Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Social Media, Google AdWords and Agency Training, Nikhil Parekh and I decided to close off our final event of the year by inviting a handful of top notch Internet Marketing experts to present alongside with us at the premiere Internet AUstars multi-speaker event.
The goal for Internet AUStars was to provide as much value as possible to our attendees, so Nikhil Parekh and I were very selective about the experts we invited – They must be successful in what they are teaching, willing to conduct not one but two trainings, and be around the entire event even after they have presented for speaker panels, hot seats, networking sessions and make themselves available for one-on-one time with individual attendees.
It was a challenge to narrow down our list of worldwide experts, but in the end, our international Internet AUStars team included Dr. Mike Woo-Ming from San Diego, CA, Christopher Guerriero from New Jersey, David Cavanagh from Thailand, Glenn Dietzel from Ontario, Canada, as well as guest appearances from Australian locals Peter Drew, Paul Barrs, Aimee Vo and Katerina Morjanoff.
Even though the Internet AUStars 10-day tour was grueling event for the entire team, it was very much worth it just to be able to bring all these worldwide talents to the Australian audience.

Canada barely out of ice age in harnessing Arctic growth, conference hears

WHISTLER, B.C. -- The Arctic may be a hot commodity, with remarkable resource and tourism opportunities, but a conference has heard that Canada and the United States are barely out of the ice age when it comes to harnessing its growth.
Business and political leaders from both countries heard Wednesday that while Russia is building more than a dozen icebreakers to transport liquefied natural gas to Asia, jurisdictions in Alaska, the Yukon and Northwest Territories are still trying to organize business meetings.
"Despite the very good practical relations between Canada and Alaska and the territories, we still have two kinds of solitudes in respect of each one reporting to their federal governments far away," said Canadian Arctic expert John Higginbotham.
"What we need is high-level political and high-level business attention to the Arctic development in that region if we are ever going to keep up with the very rapid developments that Russia and Norway and Sweden and other countries are investing in."
The Russians are developing a northern sea route through which atomic-powered icebreakers will move oil, gas and LNG to Asian customers, said Higginbotham who heads the Arctic program at the think-tank known as the Centre for International Governance Innovation.
"There's great interest. They (the Russians) realize what the melting Arctic is going to mean over the next 20, 30, 40 years for commerce, for economic development," he said. "(For us) the penny has yet to fully drop, but the consciousness is increasing."
Delegates attending the annual Pacific Northwest Economic Region Summit in Whistler, B.C., heard that Arctic development in Alaska and Canada's northern territories is ripe with potential, but cross-border co-operation is required.
Higginbotham said he's encouraged that an organization like PNWER, which represents 10 states, provinces and territories, has focused on strengthening northern ties.
"There's going to have to be a breakthrough in terms of co-operation and investment," he said. "The responsibility falls on both the federal governments, the regional governments and particularly on business communities. It's up to North America to get its act together in the Arctic."
University of Victoria public administration Prof. Emmanuel Brunet-Jailly said Russia pulls 37 per cent of its gross domestic product from the Arctic while Canada earns less than 10 per cent.
He said the Russian economy has tapped into the Arctic in a massive way, while North America is barely touching its potential.
"That's why the discussion on the Arctic here at PNWER shows that even the business community in the northern part of North America is still at the level where they are organizing themselves," said Brunet-Jailly. "The Russians have done this a quarter century ago. They are ahead of the deal."
But Alaska State Rep. Bob Herron said recent increased U.S. State Department attention and Canada's consistent focus on Arctic development has him confident the region is on track to realize its potential.
"Arctic awareness is going to have to be treated just like a campaign," he said. "Just like a company trying to sell a product. Arctic awareness is important not only to the United States, not only to Canada, but to the world. It's just that that education process has begun but sometimes that education takes a long time."
