The SIDS Conference will begin next week with the Youth conference followed by the main conference in the following week.
So much has already been discussed prior to the Youth Conference, all of which will be covered at next week's events. It would be most interesting in particular to discuss rural youth in terms of the "youth bulge" and the challenges they face like their access to quality education only furthering their distance from political and economic development participation.
It would be interesting also to have the rural youth very much a part of the discussions as they make up 580 million (55%) people of the developing world according to the Rural Youth evaluation synthesis report (May 2014) collated by IFAD. According to the report, over 1.2 billion of the worlds population are aged 15-24, making up 17% of of the global population, the highest these figures have ever been. I hope we can raise these issues at the conference and especially in terms of agriculture, one of the main sectors for SIDS and the decline of agricultural activities among rural youth, which in turn is also affecting food security, sustainable livelihoods and placing heavier burdens on the older generation.
The Report discussed that there are no incentives in place to encourage rural youth in agriculture. Well, this is probably the tricky part and all discussions on this topic are welcome.

Attorney General Eric Holder revealed that he is planning a series of measures that will challenge the state's autonomy when it comes to setting its own voting laws.
Following the Supreme Court's partial dismantling of the Voting Rights Act in June, the Justice Department is now going to go ahead and try to get its oversight power back in some states using what's left of the law, Attorney General Eric Holder announced on Thursday. First up: Texas.
Speaking to the National Urban League in Philadelphia, Holder revealed that he is planning a series of measures that will challenge the state's autonomy when it comes to setting its own voting laws. As you'll remember, the Supreme Court invalidated the portion of the Voting Rights Act earlier this summer that determined the formula by which states and counties were flagged for extra federal scrutiny before their voting laws went into effect, based on historical discrimination. That left states like Texas (and North Carolina) with free reign to set their own rules — including controversial voter ID laws — without federal oversight, at least until Congress manages to draft a new formula "based on current conditions." Since that's not likely to happen any time soon, the Justice Department is trying to find a way to step in without them. Their first step will be to throw their support behind an already existing lawsuit from Democratic coalitions in Texas that challenges the state's redistricting plan. "We believe that the State of Texas should be required to go through a preclearance process whenever it changes its voting laws and practices." Holder explained. He added:
"Even as Congress considers updates to the Voting Rights Act in light of the Court's ruling, we plan, in the meantime, to fully utilize the law's remaining sections to subject states to pre-clearance as necessary...my colleagues and I are determined to use every tool at our disposal to stand against such discrimination wherever it is found."

UBS news
UBS to buy back outstanding bonds in public tender offer
UBS offers to buy back certain outstanding tier 2 and senior bonds for cash up to approximately CHF 2.15 billion.
UBS announces today that it is making a cash tender offer in relation to five Swiss franc, euro or pound sterling subordinated bonds and six Swiss franc, euro, Italian lira or pound sterling senior unsecured bonds, for a maximum aggregate principal amount of EUR 1.75 billion, equivalent to approximately CHF 2.15 billion. The offer is subject to increase or decrease and other conditions as set out in the tender offer memorandum. The subordinated bonds subject to this offer count as tier 2 capital under the BIS Basel III phase-in rules currently in effect, but are not eligible as tier 2 capital on a BIS Basel III fully applied basis.
This transaction is consistent with our proactive approach to reducing our balance sheet and future interest expense while maintaining our strong liquidity, funding and capital position.
We estimate that the transaction will reduce our BIS Basel III phase-in total capital ratio by 0.2% - 0.5%. We expect to incur a small loss on this transaction, which we expect to recover in the short-term through the reduction in future interest expense. The repurchase of the tier 2 bonds will not affect our CET1 ratio, but the expected loss associated with this transaction may have an insignificant effect on it.
The tender offer period will end on 13 December 2013, unless extended, re-opened or earlier terminated as provided in the tender offer memorandum.

October 31 through November 6 Notes from Napa Valley: The take-away from three days and nights at the Culinary Institute of America's food conference -- "World Casual: The Future of American Menus"-- comes the notion that the food of tomorrow will be a big mash-up of tastes and flavors all on one plate. No doubt you are experiencing that now. The "grab-and-go" food of yesterday and of the globe's most remote locations, is the knockout food of today and we can barely digest it all. It's "the experience" we all seem to be after -- whether at the $3 price level...or $300.00. Once upon a time, casual restaurants distilled their ideas from "upscale dining." Today, upscale restaurants chefs are inspired by more humble tastes -- from ethnic street food vendors and idiosyncratic food trucks.
There were more than 700 cooks, sponsors, and food companies present. And there were chefs from twenty-one countries who all weighed in on the interesting debate of "what's next?" There was a strong presence from Spain, particularly the Basque region, with a handful of chefs doing cutting edge pintxos (tapas) --with one dramatic showing of dry ice in a sardine can which "smoked" as the food was presented on top. Pretty cool stuff to accompany a glass of cava (of which there were numerous examples to try.)
And there were more authentic offerings too, from Paul Bartolotta from Las Vegas, the wonderful Indian chef Hemant Mathur from Tulsi in New York (a recent Michelin star recipient), and from Sara Jenkins, porchetta-e-pasta diva from the lower East Side. Jose Garces, the superstar chef from Philadelphia predicted that Ecuadorian food is the next trend (Peruvian food is the current one), and made delicious Slow-Cooked Pork Trotters with Spicy Peanut Curry, Scallions and Hominy. Historian and chef, Maricel Priscilla, owner of two great restaurants in Hoboken, seconded that notion with her tantalizing Ecuadorian Shrimp Ceviche with Peanuts in the style of Manabi. From another Latino kitchen came a fascinating dish presented by Rick Bayless (from Chicago's Frontera Grill, etc.) -- a "dry ceviche" made with ground yellowtail, lime juice, carrots, red onion and minced serrano pepper. It's an "a la minute" dish that can truly be made in seconds.
Most of the time we ate from the half-acre of food stalls and buffet tables -- the Iberico pork (fresh) from Spain was remarkable, as was the foccacia di Recco of Chef Bartolotta, the Sfincione alla Palermitana from Umbrian chef Salvatore Denaro, and the fragrant biryani from Nimmy Paul, a food writer and consultant from Kerala. During one of the wonderful presentations moderated by Michael Whiteman, I had the best pork belly bao of my life, from Charles Phan, owner and executive chef of San Francisco's Slanted Door. As Mr. Whiteman aptly said about so much of this food, "both time and distance have evaporated; you can get anything from anywhere." I also enjoyed a classic salad from Singapore called "rojak" -- made with pineapple, cucumber, mango, fish sauce, shrimp paste and ground nuts, prepared by chef KF Seetoh. It was as classic as anything that translates as "chaos" could be. Very refreshing and mysterious. The longest line of the three-day festival, however, was Chef Phan's "Fried Chicken with Sriracha Butter."
One night we went out for dinner in St. Helena to one of the most beautifully casual/upscale restaurants anywhere, called Press. Specializing in wood-fired food and one of Napa's great wine lists, the restaurant is owned by Leslie Rudd (from Rudd Vineyards, 209 Gin, and owner of Dean & Deluca) and the CIA's "Advance Ambassador" Reuben Katz (who used to work with us at the Rainbow Room.) Great ambiance and lots of protein but the killer dish that night was...Wood-roasted Brussels Sprouts with big chunks of Nueske's bacon. Amazing. I also loved my side dish of smokey-buttery kale that I chose to have as my first course.
We also had a big deal dinner at one of San Francisco's most revered restaurants: Michael Mina. Loved the dry malvasia from Greece I had as an aperitif accompanied by oiled-grilled bread served with tiny ramekins of creamy ricotta and honey.
And the best bedtime "pillow treat" I've had in a hotel recently (the lovely Inn at Southbridge) was the shortbread cookie embedded in a disc of bittersweet chocolate. I may order a case. It's from a company called Totally Chocolate.
This was the 14th year that the CIA held their World of Flavors Conference. There's nothing quite like it.

I'm a devotee of the Yacht Rock school of sailing, which means smooth music from the late 1970s with plenty of cocktails. Worrying about winds, sandbars, and fuel supplies is someone else's job.
I'm nearly useless as a crew member, but at least I can provide some ballast. That's why I'm hoping to sail the seas aboard a superyacht one day.
These ultra-luxurious vessels are enormous and enormously expensive. They're private mini cruise ships with the amenities of five-star hotels, and although the market for these floating gin palaces took a serious beating with the 2008 financial crisis, there are signs it's cruising back to life.
For instance, this year saw the launch of the no-holds-barred Azzam, the world's longest privately owned vessel. At 590 feet, it's two football fields long, outranking the 536-foot Eclipse owned by Russian businessman Roman Abramovich. Azzam cost an insane $609 million, and its owner is said to be a member of the Saudi royal family.
That sort of one-upmanship moves the industry forward. Azzam was constructed by renowned German yacht builder Lurssen, which has just launched another superyacht, the 279-foot Solandge, seen above.
Only the 64th largest yacht in the world, Solandge has a large swimming pool, a helicopter pad, and super-posh staterooms for 12 guests. The interiors, by Aileen Rodriguez, apparently feature design elements with 49 types of stone and 33 types of wood.
As with our recent Crave galleries on blinged-out tablets and phones, ultra-design luxury watches, opulent home theater setups, and jaw-dropping cars, this week we engage in more idle fantasizing, this time about seagoing dreams from the winged, space-age Adastra to Bill Gates' rectilinear Venus. Check them out in the gallery below.

Plouffe's campaign: Steer to victory
David Plouffe's first job at Uber will seem awfully familiar.
In 2008, Plouffe ran Barack Obama's state-by-state insurgent campaign against Hillary Clinton, using technology, heaps of data, the excitement of young people and an inspirational message to defeat an entrenched, seemingly inevitable front-runner.
Story Continued Below
In 2014, the San Francisco-based ride-sharing company wants him to do the same thing to "Big Taxi," its catchall term for the regulators, taxi drivers, medallion owners and local pols who have thrown up roadblocks from Boston to Miami to Kansas City as Uber has expanded.
"We'll be trying to change the point of view of established politicians, and there's a lot of resistance coming from people who want to protect the status quo," Plouffe told POLITICO as news of his hiring broke Tuesday.
The company didn't announce how much it will pay Plouffe, but he could see a windfall if the company eventually goes public.
Uber is giving him a lot of the same tools Plouffe has wielded before: The company's core user base resembles the young, educated and diverse city-dwellers who powered Obama to victory. While Obama's 2008 coolness factor inspired a wave of the politically apathetic to pour small donations into his campaign coffers, Uber has proved adept at persuading die-hard fans to sign petitions and pester local officials. It also has a reported $17 billion valuation.
( Also on POLITICO: David Plouffe joins Uber as 'campaign manager')
Plouffe, one of the most sought-after men in Washington and an often-rumored contender for White House chief of staff, joins a company with seemingly limitless ambitions — and can give it some crucially needed cachet before it goes public. It also appears likely that the longtime Obama hand will play a role in transforming Uber — which he called a "once-in-a-generation company" — from a bar-hopping shuttle for tech-savvy millennials to an urban logistics powerhouse.
His new job essentially aligns him with the "wine track" Democratic coalition that Obama attracted in 2008 — a new generation of liberals who are fluent in technology and more skeptical of regulations than the "beer track" coalition that supported Clinton, which was heavy with the unions and local government employees that Uber is fighting.
Some Republicans were amused to see a top Obama ally doing battle with Big Government.
"It's ironic that Plouffe got the regulation king elected and now is trying to push for deregulation," Republican National Committee spokesman Raffi Williams wrote in an email. "I guess Uber thinks that Plouffe might be able to talk some sense into the Democrats who are afraid of innovation and try to stamp out any innovative business with overregulation."
But in some cities, even the right-hand man of the nation's most powerful Democrat might not have the pull to match longtime local power brokers. In Illinois, for instance, taxi companies hired Daley & Georges, where former Chicago Mayor Richard Daley's brother Michael is a principal, to lobby on their behalf. They also hired The Roosevelt Group, which counts a former top Daley aide among its staff.
( Also on POLITICO: Uber uses lobbying to drive expansion)
But Uber CEO Travis Kalanick said Plouffe is the ideal person for the job. He "will be bringing the expertise, wisdom, a strategic mindset to the next phase of the Uber movement, shepherding us well beyond the challenges of the Big Taxi cartel, and into the brave new world of software-powered transportation," Kalanick wrote in the blog post announcing Plouffe's hire.
Jim Messina, the Obama 2012 campaign manager who connected Plouffe with the company, told POLITICO it is the "perfect marriage: You have the smartest strategist I have ever met, with one of the most innovative companies in America."
Plouffe will start in September as senior vice president of policy and strategy for Uber, which operates in more than 200 cities in 44 countries across all six inhabited continents. The company's smartphone app enables passengers to summon drivers in vehicles ranging from sedans to traditional taxis to limousines.
But ride-sharing may be only the beginning of the company's ambitions. It has run promotions in which drivers deliver ice cream to passengers during the hot summer months, and on Tuesday announced it would start testing an on-demand service in Washington, D.C., promising swift delivery of pharmacy products like candy, deodorant and allergy medicine at the touch of a button.
But on Tuesday, Plouffe was on-message in describing the company's core business.
"I believe passionately about the mission," he said in an interview with Bloomberg TV. "Providing a transportation alternative should not be controversial. Saving lives, cutting down on drunk and distracted driving, creating jobs, helping parents and workers in businesses move around the city and live their lives in a more productive way. And I think ultimately this kind of progress, this kind of change, it's hard to stand in the way of. People are going to put up a fight and we're going to be prepared to make sure that we're fighting for that transportation alternative that Uber represents."

I feel like you need to substantiate this claim. That's a really vague statement to make about a guy who was making power chord rock songs. Cobain was probably no master at the guitar, but they made some great songs. You just seem to be making a subjective statement and masking it as an objective claim.
I don't think he wrote a good song ever. I certainly don't speak for everyone though. To my ears though... awful. I never got all the praise he got as a songwriter. Never got it, never will. Just how I feel.

Hi everyone! I'm back with an outfit post to share with you. I took these pictures on a sunny evening during my Easter holidays from work. I was drawn to this pink jumper by ASOS petite, with its vivid depiction of a tiger on the front, and clusters of red and white flowers. I've never seen anything quite like it, and it definitely stood out to me. Lately, the items of clothing I love seem to feature animal imagery of some kind. You might remember my recent outfit post (Embroidered Swallows and Gem-Encrusted Jeans), which featured a top with a striking bird motif. I wasn't sure how the petite fit of this particular jumper would turn out on me though, as I normally get my tops in standard sizes. However, I was really pleased that this top did fit me, and the proportions weren't too small. I was able to get the jumper over my head without feeling strangled, and the sleeves weren't tiny, so I was happy I could keep it! Luckily I got it half price during the sales, making it a must-buy! As it's a fine knit rather than a heavy jumper, I'll definitely get more opportunities to wear it. I wore it several times just in the first week of having it!
Anyway, I wore this pastel shade of pink after many years. I'm not sure why I stopped wearing pink in the first place, other than feeling it somehow looked immature and not 'grown up' enough. But these days I just wear the colours I like, rather than sticking to dark tones. I love darker colours too for a more dramatic look sometimes, but I feel bright and vibrant colours suit me more, having a positive effect on my mood.
I styled the tiger jumper with indigo jeans and big twinkly earrings from my jewellery collection, which I don't get many occasions to wear. I like the shimmer to them and the way they make a more casual daytime outfit suitable for evening. I added my leopard print furry coat, as it still gets cold when the temperature drops in the evening.
What do you think of this look? How would you style a tiger jumper? Please let me know in the comments below.
TIGER, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
(The Tiger, William Blake)

Hi! I'm Melissa Ann from Lilac Lane. I'm SO excited to share my first goody with you. Today we are making a child's apron, chef's hat and play oven mitts. If you would like to win the ensemble pictured above, hop on over to my blog. I'm having a giveaway for it! Otherwise, here are the instructions you need to make it for yourself. In fact, one jelly roll makes two complete sets. Yummy! Enjoy.
6 inches by about 20 inches of a soft knit fabric
If you pressed your seams the same direction in step 2, they will lock together in the back and make really nice looking squares on the front. They should look something like this.
Then fold in half the other way, making a square.
Step 5. There will be two folded sides. Taking your ruler, mark eight inches from the corner between the two folded sides. Mark the eight inches at several points, forming an arc. A compass would be good for this. Join the marks and cut.
You will have a nice circle.
Step 6. Sew two rows of gathering stitches all around the circle at 1/4 and 3/8 inches from the edge. For my sewing machine, this means setting the stitch length to 5. Pull up the gathers some, but not too much. You want this part of the hat to be a little bit bigger than the band.
Step 7. Measure the child's head. In the absence of a child to measure, my two year old measures 19 inches, four year old 20 inches and 6 year old 21 inches. This hat fit all three of them.
Step 11. Pin the gathered part of the hat into the hat band. Since the band is very stretchy, it's okay if the gathered part is bigger — you can ease it as you go.
Step 12. Sew all the way around the hat, joining the hat band to the gathered fabric. I used a seam just a bit larger than 3/8 inches so that I didn't have to pull out the gathering thread when I was finished. I find that it is a bit easier if you put the gathered part on top and the knit on the bottom against the feed dogs. Then, you guessed it, zigzag all the way around your seam.
Step 15. Fold the edges over and press 1/4 inch, and then 1/4 inch again. Sew down this seam about 1/4 inch from the edge to finish it.
Step 17. Open up your pressed strip and sew along the first pressed indentation. Sew with the right side of the strip facing the wrong side of the bottom of the apron. When you reach the end of the apron, cut about 1/4″ extra, fold this in to be even with the end of the apron skirt and sew across to the end of the apron skirt.
Step 18. Fold the edging over to the front side of the apron and edge stitch across it.
Step 19. Choose four strips for the apron ties. Similar colors would probably look nicest. Set these aside for just a bit.
Step 20. Choose four colors for the apron bodice and for the oven mitts. If you are making this for a bigger child, this would be a good place to add a strip or two. Sew them together with 1/4″ seam. No need to zigzag the seams this time (hooray!) Cut the strip of four sewn strips into 4 – 8 inch squares and 1 8 x 9 inch square. Also cut a piece of coordinating fabric to 8 x 9 inches. Set the four 8 x 8 inch pieces aside for later.
Step 21. Gently curve the corners of the top of the bodice.
Step 22. With right sides together, sew all the way around the apron bodice and apron facing (coordinating fabric) with 1/4″ seam. Clip the curves. Turn inside out and press. Make two large button holes approximately 1 1/2 inches in from each side and 1/2 inch from the top.
Step 23. Now take the four tie pieces. Sew two together at the short ends and then the other two together in the same way. Then pin the two ties together. Pinning is a must here! Leave a twenty inch gap centered in the middle of the ties. I marked this with two pins. Sew all the way around everything but the marked twenty inches in the middle.
Step 24. Clip the corners and then turn the whole thing inside out. Press it flat. Then press a 1/4″ seam into the center part which wasn't sewn.
Step 25. Center the apron bodice into the tie. It will be a little sandwich: apron bodice between two unsewn tie pieces. Gather the apron skirt across the top like you did with the hat. Adjust your gathers so that the skirt is two to three inches wider than the bodice on each side. Then center the apron skirt into the tie in the same way.
Step 26. Edge stitch around the entire thing. I like to edge stitch all the way around the ties so you never have to worry about them getting a little wonky when you wash the apron. Check the back when you're finished to make sure you caught the back side of the tie. If not, rip out a little and try again. If you caught it all, then great! Move on to the next step.
Step 27. Choose a fabric for the strap and cut it down to 30 inches. If you are enlarging the pattern, make it a little bit bigger. Make a strap exactly how you made the bottom trim in step 16. Edge stitch all the way around this piece.
Step 28. Thread one side through and knot two or three times so that it won't come out of the button hole. Then thread the other side through and knot once or twice so that it will, with effort, come out of the button hole.
The placement of the knots will determine the length of the apron.
Step 31. Sew all the way around the mitt and clip the curvy parts and the thumb indentation part.
Step 32. Turn the glove right side out and press. Measure across the opening. Take this measurement times 2 and then add 1/2 inch. Mine is 4 inches across. Taking it time 2 is 8 inches and and extra half inch is 8 1/2. Cut a strip this size. Press it as you did in step 16. Then open it up and sew the two ends together.

Rule #1 - Be Patient - Rule #2 - Don't ask when, if you don't contribute - Rule #3 - You have coding skills - LinuxMCE's small brother is available: http://www.agocontrol.com
Here is a really stupid question. Linux MCE does NOT support multi core processing - am I right?
OK, I'm probably not the best person to explain this as there are a few points that I have not been certain of myself in this area. However, some comments:1) I have assumed (although not certain) that the per process CPU usage shown in top actually adds up to 100% x # of cores. So for a dual box, this would be 200%. The top manual page entry is a little ambiguous on this point, however I have often noticed that my sum CPU usage for the top few processes displayed in top is far more than 100%. The top manual page seems to me to imply that this is the reason why.2) If you have a process that the bulk of the work is done by a single thread, and it is maxing out the core it happens to be on, and your box is a dual core machine, then I would expect top to show 100%, being all computing resources available for that core, and thus effective 50% of the overall machine's resources.3) In your case, that would seem to suggest that that it is consuming 100% of one core from 4, being a quarter of the total 400% CPU available to you.... in other words 25% of the total available to the machine.....4) The above point is highly suggestive, but not definitive - could just be a coincidence, but it is important to note that Windows definitely does not calculate CPU like this. 100% means 100%. If a CPU bound process is sucking up all CPU resources for a single thread on a single core of four, then Windows would report that as 25%. It would also look like the waveform is unnaturally "clipped" around that 25% mark rather than the more normal "spikey" look.5) Note that Windows always has significant advantages in decompressing various video codecs as they can hand off a lot of these to the video card rather than sucking up CPU. In many cases, Linux has to do the heavy lifting directly on the CPU because of the stranglehold that M$ has on hardware manufacturers, limiting how much of the hardware we buy from them is exposed for our use!
if you mean when running under Windows this is what you see, then I would suggest that the progressive points 1-4 are more likely closer to the mark...In any case, it is possible to multithread graphics decoding so that load is shared, but requires a lot more coding sophistication - typically dividing up the screen into 2 or 4 pieces, and dispatching the load to each of the cores. I suspect that xinelib does not do this, which is a shame, but I'm sure it will be addressed in future releases, especially given the drive to multiple cores/CPUs and the graphics driver issues...
Sounds interesting! BTW, tho the 9 series nVidia chipset will be way too new, so you will definitely have graphics problems right from the install/setup phase. You will need to install the latest drivers from nVidia - you can find a pretty good guide to this in the wiki.

An Elegant French Country–Style Wedding at Baltimore Country Club in Maryland
Molly Coplan (29 and works in philanthropy) and Gabriel Doran's (34 and works in advertising technology sales) garden party was embellished with lush, organic flower arrangements, gold décor and subtle dusty blue. The day kicked off an outdoor ceremony, where the couple tied the knot under a eucalyptus and vine chuppah and the bride's late grandfather's tallit. They combined traditional Jewish rituals, like the seven blessings, with their personal vows for a heartfelt and sentimental ceremony. After the "I dos," guests sipped cocktails on the lawn, chatting around cocktail tables draped with pale blue printed cloths. An airy sailcloth tent played host to the reception, where woven natural runners, white blooms and blue-gray menus with matching escort cards (one of Molly's favorite details) topped the long farm tables that dotted the space. "We wanted the reception to feel comfortable and casual, but also beautiful," Molly says. The couple also incorporated their pup, Elly, in a sweet way: on the cookie favors. "She's the love of our lives," Molly adds. Opting for casual bites, Molly and Gabriel had a taco bar, slider options, a carving station and a mac and cheese bar.

So, after looking over so many of the pictures that I took today of our re-cap of the
Retro Inky Prints ( a workshop that Helen Shafer Garcia taught here at the beginning of October)
I decided that it was time to show off our results from today.
Although there were only 4 of us in this mini re-cap session, we sure did some great pieces.
First of all we couldnt even remember "how" to do the process, so we called Meg. She knows everything, and ... she remembers how to do everything too.
It started with slathering some Golden Black Open Acrylic on our plexiglass.. After that, we were stuck. But as it turned out the process was quite simple and the results were amazing.
Ruthie created an interesting &
simple & colorful retro print.
I borrowed a FREE image
that Cloth Paper Scissors offered
a few years ago for my image and
then kicked it up a knotch with
my use of colors.
This owl was created by one of our
newest additions to our Tuesday
get-togethers, Loretta.
This was only the beginning.
Loretta also drew a simple
flower and added powerful color
to practice this technique.
I sketched a simple bird in a mountain
setting with a few plants and then
added some bright color.
Last but not least, Susan Warrick loves
her cats and decided what could be a simpler
image for a retro print technique then her
precious little kitties.

The safest place to get apps for your Mac is the App Store. Apple reviews each app in the App Store before it's accepted and signs it to ensure that it hasn't been tampered with or altered. If there's ever a problem with an app, Apple can quickly remove it from the store.
If you download and install apps from the internet or directly from a developer, macOS continues to protect your Mac. When you install Mac apps, plug-ins, and installer packages from outside the App Store, macOS checks the Developer ID signature and notarization status to verify that the software is from an identified developer and that it has not been altered. With macOS Mojave, developers can also have their app notarized by Apple—an indication that the app was uploaded to Apple and passed a security check before it was distributed.
View the app security settings on your Mac
By default, the security and privacy preferences of your Mac are set to allow apps from the App Store and identified developers. For additional security, you can chose to allow only apps from the App Store.
In System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, then click General. Click the lock and enter your password to make changes. Select App Store under the header "Allow apps downloaded from."
Open a developer-signed or notarized app
If your Mac is set to allow apps from the App Store and identified developers, the first time that you launch an app from an identified developer, your Mac asks if you're sure you want to open it.
An app that has been notarized by Apple indicates that it passed a security check:
Apps that haven't been notarized show a yellow warning icon:
If you see a warning message and can't install an app
If you have set your Mac to allow apps only from the App Store and you try to install an app from elsewhere, your Mac will say that the app is not from the App Store.
If your Mac is set to allow apps from the App Store and identified developers, and you try to install an app that isn't registered with Apple by an identified developer, you also get a warning.
These messages don't necessarily mean that something is wrong with the app. For example, some apps were written before Developer ID registration. If you see a warning, it means that the app has not been signed by the developer, so macOS can't check whether the app has been modified or broken since it was released.
You may want to look for a later version of the app in the App Store or look for an alternative app.
If macOS detects a malicious app
If macOS detects a problem with an app—for example, that it has malicious content or was modified since it was checked—it will notify you when you try to open it and ask you to move it to the Trash.
Install an app from an unidentified developer
If you're certain that an app you want to install is from a trustworthy source and hasn't been tampered with, you can temporarily override your Mac security settings and open it.
In the Finder, Control-click the app, choose Open from the menu, and in the dialog that appears, click Open. Enter your admin name and password when prompted.
The app is now saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it, just as you can any authorized app.

My, how things have changed in such a short period of time for the Raiders. The latest move came today, when the Raiders waived second-year offensive tackle Joseph Barksdale, one of Oakland's two third-round picks in the 2011 NFL draft, and signed veteran defensive end Andre Carter.
It's just the latest in a growing series of moves by first-year general manager Reggie McKenzie in his reshaping of the Raiders 53-man roster.
Since he arrived, McKenzie has jettisoned six players selected by the Raiders under late managing general partner Al Davis between 2005-11. Here's a look at those players:
Player Position Year drafted/round Transaction
DeMarcus Van Dyke Cornerback 2011/3rd Waived
Joseph Barksdale Offensive tackle 2011/3rd Waived
Chimdi Chekwa Cornerback 2011/4th Waived
Bruce Campbell Offensive tackle 2010/4th Traded
Louis Murphy Wide receiver 2009/4th Traded
Stanford Routt Cornerback 2005/2nd Waived
Of the aforementioned six, only Routt and Murphy produced in games on a consistent basis. McKenzie and coach Dennis Allen wasted little time in parting ways with the four others.
It remains to be seen whether this amounts to change for change's sake or whether McKenzie and Allen are improving the roster.
Allen is convinced that these are moves that make the Raiders more competitive.
"Eventually there's a point in time where you move on from everybody," Allen said. "It's never an easy decision. There's always a lot of thought that goes in. There's only 53 spots that we have on the active roster, and we've got to try and do whatever we can to fill those spots with the best 53 guys that we think give us the best chance to win on Sundays."
Barksdale and Campbell didn't get much of an opportunity to show what they can do in games. Chekwa remains on the practice squad, but he keeps getting passed over for other cornerbacks. Van Dyke played sparingly last season before he was waived and then signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
— Allen said wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey was at the team facility today, undergoing tests to see how he is recovering from the concussion he suffered Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
By the way, Steelers safety Ryan Mundy was fined $21,000 by the league for his helmet-to-helmet hit on Heyward-Bey early in the fourth quarter.
Heyward-Bey did not practice. However, he participated in team meetings and is on his way to a full recovery. It's unlikely that he will play Sunday against the Denver Broncos.
— Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp admitted during offseason workouts that tight end was a position of concern entering training camp. Not anymore.
Through three games, Brandon Myers, David Ausberry and Richard Gordon have combined for 19 receptions for 263 and one touchdown. Kevin Boss, Myers and Ausberry had only six receptions for 62 yards and no touchdowns through three games last season.
"That's been a position that was a little bit of a question mark coming into the season," Allen said. "So the fact that we've gotten some production out of those guys, and all of them have had production in their own way and they've brought different aspects to our offense, that's been a positive."
Myers has caught all 15 passes thrown his way the first three games. Others might be surprised at how well he has played. Yet, Myers said in recent years that he was confident he could play at a high level if given the chance.
That chance came and went last season, when the Raiders signed Kevin Boss one day after incumbent starter Zach Miller signed with the Seattle Seahawks.
"You never know what's going to happen, especially with a new organization and new coaches and things like that," Myers said. "For them to do that, it was on us to step up in the games and make plays. So far, we've done that."
Quarterback Carson Palmer raves about Myers, saying he is faster than people think and has the best hands on the team.
"He's got unbelievable hands," Palmer said. "He's kind of a sleeper. … He makes diving catches, one-handed catches. You don't ever see him drop anything."
Palmer said Myers also understands how to set up routes, find the soft spot in zone coverage and get in position to make plays.
"Just, really, a solid, all-around player," Palmer said. "And he can block too, which a lot of times you get a guy that's really good at one thing and struggles at the other. Brandon's really balanced in the passing and running game."
— Outside linebacker Aaron Curry is on the physically unable to perform list for at least three more weeks with sore knees. On Wednesday, Curry worked off to the side, while his teammates practiced.
"He was out here running around again today," Allen said. "We still got some time with him. He's looking better and whenever we get to that point in time where we got to make a decision, then we'll be ready to make the decision."
Curry declined an interview request today, saying he isn't allowed to talk about his injury.
If so, seems rather curious that he Tweeted the other day how treatment he is receiving from someone in Danville is having a positive effect.
— People are quick to criticize Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning for not being the same player he was with the Indianapolis Colts and before the four neck surgeries.
For our money, we'll listen to Broncos coach John Fox and Allen.
Fox: "The people that look at the tape and study it would think it's semi-comical," Fox said of people questioning Manning's arm strength.
Allen: "I'm not falling into that trap," Allen said. "He's Peyton Manning. He's a Hall of Fame quarterback. There's no way that we're going to, in any way, say that he's not the same quarterback that he's been. I've watched the tape. He's still an outstanding quarterback. He's operating that offense, and I don't really see much of a dropoff of where he's been before. He's still an outstanding quarterback."
And Manning's assessment?
"I have our coaches' analysis that kind of is between us, the players and the coaches, and we have things that we're working on, and things that we're trying to correct and things we're trying to improve on," Manning said. "So, I'm not really into giving an after-three-game analysis, or sharing that publicly anyway."
Raiders middle linebacker Rolando McClain grew up watching Manning. He said he didn't realize the full scope of Manning's mastery of the offense until he played against him.
"He's just amazing," McClain said. "As a kid, I watched always Peyton Manning and the Colts, but I never played him. Then you get in the NFL and you're like, 'Does he really make this many checks?' He does. It's crazy. I was amazed. He's an amazing player.
"They had a rough start to the season but, at the end of the day, he's still Peyton Manning. He still has all the ability in the world. We have a good game plan. We have to go out there and execute and do some things he hasn't seen and make it kind of hard for him. You just have to execute and play your best."
— The New England Patriots used the No. 6 pick in the 2001 NFL draft on defensive lineman Richard Seymour. One pick later, the 49ers selected defensive end Andre Carter.
Now, both players are on the Raiders. Seymour said the addition of Carter gives the Raiders more juice in their defensive line rotation.
"Definitely some leadership, for sure," Seymour said. :He'll be instrumental. He's a proven guy in this league. Obviously, it will take some times to get his legs under him, but he's a guy that's shown he can rush the passer and that will be essential for us."
Carter worked out twice for the Raiders before signing today. He recorded 10 sacks for the Patriots last season despite missing the final two regular-season games with a quadriceps injury.
He said he is ready to roll right now, though it's unclear whether he will be in shape to play as soon as this Sunday.
"If I wasn't ready, then I wouldn't be here," Carter said. "Obviously they signed me, and I was glad to be a part of this great organization, and we'll just take it day by day."
Carter said he also worked out for the Arizona Cardinals and St. Louis Rams, with the Patriots in the mix, too. Ultimately, he decided to return to his Bay Area roots.
"I had a lot of friends who said, 'You crossed over to the dark side,' " Carter said. "Everything comes full circle. Where I'm at in my career, why not be back in the Bay Area where it all started for me? A lot of good memories from the time I played at Oak Grove High School to being a Cal Bear to being a 49er. Being the last draft class of Bill Walsh is something I hold dear and just continue to play this game."
Defensive lineman Desmond Bryant said he is fortunate to have learned from the likes of Greg Ellis, Gerard Warren, Seymour and Tommy Kelly. Now, he's looking forward to gleaning some pointers from Carter, too.
"As a defensive lineman, we always like to have more guys that can get the job done," Bryant said. "When you have those guys in there, you're not going to have to play as much, so that will help you not get tired as much and help you be more effective for the entire game. So, yeah, anytime you can add to a rotation, especially pass-rush situations, the better off you are as a defense and team."
Carter recorded 76 sacks his first 11 seasons. He also played for the Patriots and Washington Redskins. The Raiders recorded only three sacks in their first three games.
— Raiders free safety Michael Huff picked a fine time to convert to cornerback. He faced Ben Roethlisberger in his first game, last Sunday. This Sunday, he gets to face Manning.
"Got thrown in the fire, kind of learned a lot last week," Huff said. "Had my growing pains on a few plays, obviously should have played better, got to hold up better on the outside. But luckily we got the W and that week's over, so I can learn from that film and get better this week."
Huff started at cornerback at Texas quite a bit his freshman and sophomore seasons. By the tail end of his collegiate career, he played mostly safety.
Allen said he expects Huff to make strides this week, building off the things he did against the Steelers. Huff said he already noticed that he played too far off the receiver at times.
"It's been so long since I was out there," Huff said, "and on game time, I looked back and I lined up sometimes 10, 12 yards off, when I really wasn't probably paying attention to it. But this week, I'll be more focused on my depth on certain things so definitely this week will be better."
Former Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha texted Huff afterward and offered a stern critique, Huff said.
"He has high expectations for me, so he didn't cut me any slack," Huff said.
