St. Thomas' Episcopal Church parishioner Sarah Elliott is now known as the "Labyrinth Lady" to many in the Whitemarsh Township congregation and beyond. On World Labyrinth Day, May 7, she and other labyrinth walkers joined The Labyrinth Society's (TLS) "Walk as One at 1" event "in an attempt to create a wave of peaceful energy moving around the planet." The public is invited to this event from 1 to 2pm. There will be a potluck picnic at noon, weather permitting. The church is located at Bethlehem Pike and Camp Hill Road, with the main entrance off of Camp Hill Road. The labyrinth is at the end of the long driveway leading to the church grounds.
According to TLS, while the origin of the labyrinth is unknown, labyrinths have been found all over the world dating from earliest antiquity. Once popular in the Middle Ages, labyrinths (places constructed with concentric circles or intricate passages and blind alleys, as in a garden formed by paths surrounded by high hedges) have been experiencing a surge in popularity. There is even a World Wide Labyrinth Locator at www.labyrinthlocator.com that lists over 3650 labyrinths in 70 or more countries.
Locally, the Sisters of St. Joseph installed a labyrinth next to the Mother House on the campus of Chestnut Hill College. The brick and stone labyrinth is near the intersection of Northwestern and Germantown Avenues and is open to the public.
Sister Mary Ann Mulzet, now living and serving in Baltimore, spoke by phone about the timing and concept behind the installation.
"We wanted to do something special at the turn of the century as we participated in a 72-hour United Peace Vigil. We dedicated the labyrinth at 12:01 a.m. on December 31, 1999, and held a variety of activities over the next 72 hours," said Sister Mulzet. "To me, walking a labyrinth gives me a sense of inner peace. It's funny because as you get closer to the middle, you are then taken down a path farther from the center. It's all about finding your way and acceptance and being centered."
Elliott puts a message out every Monday urging people to walk the labyrinth during the week. This is from a recent post: "Happy Easter! This is your Monday email from St. Thomas' Weekly Labyrinth Walkers group, encouraging you to carve out some sacred space in your week for a labyrinth walk.
"This week's practice suggestion: Reflect on new life. Before you begin your walk this week, sit quietly on the bench and observe the signs of new life around you. What do you see? What do you hear? What do you smell? Then as you begin your walk, quiet your mind and turn your focus inward, observing signs of new life within you. What do you notice? What feels different to you?'
Elliott, who first walked a temporary canvas labyrinth in 2002 that was set up inside of St. Thomas' parish house auditorium, was hooked on the idea of taking a mindful walk and meditating on an issue or praying. She and her husband, Steve, purchased a kit where they can make a labyrinth out of colored rope for their Blue Bell yard or anywhere they'd like.
In 2006, she approached the rector of St. Thomas', Rev. Marek Zabriskie, and suggested that a permanent labyrinth be installed.
"I said, 'We have 40 acres; why not put one on the grounds?" and so a committee was formed to research the many varieties of labyrinths and materials that could be used to construct one. There is a labyrinth made of out grass and wood chips in Phoenixville, a privet hedge labyrinth in Souderton, and one made of cobblestones at The Wellness Center at Doylestown Hospital.
"We felt very strongly that we wanted it to be handicapped accessible, so ours is made of concrete with a sturdy granite resin finish," she said, noting that she and her committee raised $50,000 for the project.
Elliott, 49, walks the labyrinth at least once a week. "I just love it. It's the most meaningful way for me to pray. Sometimes in church I get fidgety, but out here I am moving. It gives the body something to do," she said.
In addition to a bench placed at each corner of the concrete, there is an information box that contains a binder of information on labyrinths and instructions on its use. "There is no right way or wrong way to walk a labyrinth," Elliott said. "Whatever feels comfortable for you. It is not a maze; there are no tricks and no dead ends."
The St Thomas' labyrinth is an 11-circuit (or concentric circles) medieval pattern that was first used in Chartres Cathedral in France around 1201. The labyrinth consists of a single path that leads in a circuitous way into the center. Ginger Goodrich, also a St. Thomas' parishioner, is a regular labyrinth walker.
"When I walk it, I feel I am in a very sacred place. The rhythms of the turns and broad sweeps are calming, and I have found that the labyrinth path can help me untangle difficult problems," she said emphasizing that they installed the labyrinth outside "as we intended it be a gift to the community."
The congregation plans to eventually install outdoor lighting so that the labyrinth can be walked safely at night.
Brenda Sullivan is also on the St. Thomas' Labyrinth Committee. "The labyrinth has been surprisingly useful and helpful to my many endeavors at St. Thomas' Church," she said. "I've used it as an integral part of our summer outreach camp, where we use horticultural therapy and gardening as well as nutrition to empower at-risk youth. We use it with our Sunday school kids, as well as grieving adults, or those who just need to take a break from a hectic life."

A new book recently released in Cork unearthed new data which claims there are at least six people at anytime who are being trafficked for sex in Cork City, and that there are countless others who are being trafficked in Australia for work.
The Cork Independent reports on the new book 'Open Secrets: An Irish Perspective on Trafficking & Witchcraft' authored by David Lohan and Dr Jennifer DeWan. The book was officially launched in Cork this week with the support of Cois Tine, a Cork based immigrant support group. On hand at the launch were both the mayors of Cork City and County Cork.
Through research, David Lohan discovered and brought to light what he calls "startling" data from the Trafficking in Persons Report which is issued annually by the US Department of State.
"The most startling aspect of this report is the fact that it went completely unreported on this side of the world even though it happened over three years ago," said Lohan of the 2009 Report.
"The sad thing about researching this book is that there is endless information about human trafficking out there and sometimes people don't realize the extent of it."'
Lohan is referring to the 2009 Trafficking in Person Report which found that "some men and women from ... Ireland are fraudulently recruited to work temporarily in Australia, but subsequently are subjected to conditions of forced labour, including confiscation of travel documents, confinement and threats of serious harm."
The 2009 data shows for the first time definitively that there is a "deliberate exploitation of Irish workers."
In 2008, a construction company in Perth, Australia was slapped with the largest fine ever for violations of the Workplace Relations Act with at a total of AUD$174,000. They were charged for "the deliberate exploitation of Filipino and Irish migrant workers."
While the exact number of Irish workers who were embroiled in the case was not reported, it is known that they were all on 457 visas. "They were not entitled to move between employers and they were presented with undated work agreements while being denied the required documents outlining their rights," reports the Cork Independent.
At the time of the case, Australian Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Chris Evans welcomed the fine and warned that the exploitation of workers would not be tolerated by his Government.
"Slavery exists in Ireland today because the reality is that there is a demand. Irish people are willing to use, abuse and exploit their fellow human beings for economic benefit or their own gratification."

Satellite equipment maker ViaSat buying WildBlue
(AP) -- ViaSat Inc. is acquiring WildBlue Communications Inc., a provider of high-speed Internet access via satellite, for $568 million in cash and stock, the companies said Thursday.
Privately held WildBlue, in which Liberty Media Corp. holds a 37 percent stake, will become an operating subsidiary of ViaSat, which makes satellite communications equipment for defense and consumer markets.
Carlsbad, Calif.-based ViaSat plans to buy WildBlue for $443 million in cash and $125 million in new common stock. Liberty Media, controlled by media mogul John Malone, will appoint a representative to ViaSat's board. Mark Carleton, senior vice president at Liberty, is WildBlue's chairman.
ViaSat is planning to launch a satellite in the first quarter of 2011 that will enable WildBlue to offer speeds of 2 Megabits per second to 8 Megabits per second - closer to those offered by cable operators. Currently, WildBlue's speeds top out at a DSL-like 1.5 Mbps.
ViaSat plans to hold prices essentially the same for consumers, which range from $39.95 to $79.95 a month for speeds of 512 kilobits per second to 1.5 Mbps.
WildBlue, based in Denver, serves 400,000 subscribers of which around 90 percent have dial-up Internet access as their only alternative. The company holds 44 percent of the U.S. satellite ISP market.
The higher speeds will enable easier downloads of videos and other multimedia for WildBlue's customers. WildBlue's service is resold by DirecTV Group Inc., Dish Network Corp., AT&T Inc. and the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative.
The purchase marks the first time ViaSat will be dealing directly with consumers. The deal, expected to close by April, should boost ViaSat's earnings before one-time items.
WildBlue has struggled with having enough capacity to add more customers, and ViaSat's new satellite should provide the bandwidth needed to grow.
Rival satellite ISP HughesNet, a unit of Hughes Communications Inc., also offers higher speeds, but ViaSat's new satellite should make WildBlue more competitive.

This document proposes a network architecture which implements IP networking technologies, including IP multicast, to help enable efficient transmission of phasor measurement unit (PMU) data for wide area measurement systems (WAMS). Specifically, this document proposes the use of Cisco® IP Multicast technology for the transport of PMU measurement data within a single network domain (that is, a single utility) or between network domains (that is, multiple utilities). These domains can consist of service components such as phasor data concentrators (PDC), data historians, and phasor gateways and others. This architecture allows each component to continue serving as the host for PMU information while relying on a standards-based IP network for secure and scalable transport. The IP network is now responsible for the receipt and re-transfer of PMU data. In this architecture each of the service components acts as a repository which receives the data, from relevant PMUs, at the edge of the network.
Today there are two proposed implementations for PMU data transfer, aside from the architecture proposed in this paper. These include a middleware-based solution and the "PDC stacking" or "chaining" approach. These two implementations have drawbacks which include:
● Lack of adequate scalability in the solution
● Few operational field deployments
● Propagation delays of PMU messages[1]
● Non-standard implementations which may vary widely across vendors
● Lack of multiple vendor sources for a standardized solution
● Lack of consistent and standard-based Internet security measures
Why deploy IP Multicast for transmission of PMU data? Some of the primary benefits of IP Multicast include:
● Vast scalability in terms of resource efficiency (for example, bandwidth), as well as a large number of receivers that can be supported (essentially infinite).
● Proven technology with large install base
● Supports intra-domain and inter-domain architectures
● Simple adaptation of service component applications[2]
● Standards-based (IETF)
● Foundation for robust and scalable network security measures in order to be compliant with standards andregulations
Implementation of the proposed IP Multicast architecture for PMU networking will have a significantly positive impact on how the network performs. It can also reduce the complexity of managing the network. In addition, it can help scale PMU deployments and application complexity.
A Network-Centric PMU Architecture
PMUs typically conduct measurements of the target subject and package these into one of various formats suchas:
● C37.118-2005, .1 and .2
● IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented Substation Event) based on IEC 61850-90-5
● IEC 61850-9-2 sampled values based on IEC 61850-90-5
While there is discussion about the use of the IP protocol within various protocol documents related to GOOSE and sampled values messages, these messages are typically encapsulated directly into Ethernet frames (without IP). Use of Ethernet framing without IP constricts the scope for the transfer of data geographically. Adequate transport of GOOSE and sampled values messages across the WAN will require use of an end-to-end transport protocol. Both C37.118-2005 and IEC 61850-90-5 specify the use of the IP protocol transport (either IP Multicast or Unicast) within the standards documentation.
Today PMU measurement messages transmitted using IP are transmitted using IP Unicast to pre-defined receivers. These are typically PDCs or "super-PDCs" (integrated PDC functionality and service applications within a single unit). The IP transport layer protocol most widely used is User Datagram Protocol (UDP). However, some implementations utilize TCP for PMU control and configuration, and data transfer. GOOSE and sampled values messages typically remain within the confines of the LAN. Implementations utilizing Ethernet VLAN-framed messages are also used but still suffer from various limitations when implemented in WAN environments.
PDCs receive PMU messages and "concentrate" or combine them into a unified output stream. These PDCs play an important role to time-synchronize the PMU messages by correlating their timestamps. The PDC then outputs this combined message stream to another PDC (referred to as PDC stacking—when PMU messages traverse multiple daisy-chained PDCs on their journey to the operations center). Eventually the PMU messages arrive at the operations center. Along the path from PMU to the operations center, various actions such as local protection can be taken based on an evaluation of the PMU measurements. These measurements are done based on PMUs from within a utility or across utility boundaries. In addition, PMU measurement data may also travel to a regional entity such as an Independent System Operator (ISO).
This dependence on PDC forwarding introduces a number of negative effects which can have an impact on delay, jitter, scalability of the system, availability of the system, and others. One of the goals of the network architecture proposed in this document is to minimize PDCs and other non-networking entities from the network path between the PMU and any PMU message-consuming entity (PDCs, historians, middleware components, etc.). This simplification will have a significantly positive impact on how the network performs, reduce the complexity of management of the network, and help it to scale as the PMU network grows.
The PMU as a Multicast Source
The IP Multicast architecture assumes that the PMU is a multicast source. As such, the PMU will put out a continuous stream of packets toward a pre-configured destination. Today PMUs transmit using IP Unicast. Conversion from Unicast to Multicast can be implemented to accommodate legacy PMUs which cannot transmit using IP Multicast.
The PMU messages are transmitted to the first-hop router (FHR) or gateway on the local network to which the PMU is connected. This FHR is the first node in a multicast tree from the source (that is, the PMU) to the destination. The destination can be a device such as a PDC or other application service component located at an intermediate point in the network, at the operations center, or in another network domain. Once the PMU has been told to begin transmitting, it will transmit to the FHR regardless of whether there are receivers. If there are no receivers, the FHR will throw away the PMU packets until receivers come on-line.
All of the destinations to which the PMU will be transmitting are hosts located at the edge of the network rather than being located inside the network and part of the forwarding path. These hosts are not participating in the forwarding of the messages from the PMU. These hosts are called receivers in IP Multicast terminology. Figure 1 displays a typical IP Multicast tree and the downstream data distribution.
Understanding Multicast Addressing
In order for PMU messages to be forwarded from the FHR to the destination, one or more destinations or receivers must be active within the multicast implementation. In order to become active a receiver must signal to the network that it wishes to receive traffic from a specific multicast source. This source is usually specified using what is called an S,G pair. S represents the IP Unicast address of the source (that is, the PMU) and G represents the group address which associates to the set of receivers that will receive traffic from the specific source.[3] The group address is also referred to as a multicast address. The group address is used in the multicast routing table to inform downstream routers which specific multicast traffic must be transmitted in order to reach one or more receivers. The source PMU (that is, the multicast source) will transmit each IP packet, containing a PMU message, using the group address, G, in the IP destination address field and the source address, S, in the IP source addressfield.
Becoming a Receiver
A receiver (for example, a PDC, a historian, or other application service component) that wishes to receive traffic from a specific source PMU, say, source Sa, will utilize a protocol called Internet Gateway Management Protocol (IGMP), Version 3. Version 3 supports the multicast model recommended by this proposed architecture known as Protocol Independent Multicast-Source Specific Multicast (PIM-SSM). The receiver will signal to its local gateway router (the gateway is also acting as the last-hop router [LHR]) that it wishes to receive traffic from the specific source, Sa. The receiver must also specify the group address to which it will belong, Ga. This information, the (S,G) pair, will need to be known in advanced to the receiver. How this information can be made available or published to potential receivers is discussed later in the document.
Building the Multicast Tree (or Joining the Multicast Tree)
Once the potential receiver notifies the LHR that it wishes to become a receiver of traffic from Sa, the LHR begins a process by which multicast protocol signaling travels in the upstream direction towards the source PMU. The upstream path is determined by the unicast route to the PMU's unicast source address Sa. If this is the first receiver in the multicast group, Ga, the signaling will travel all the way back to the PMU source's FHR. As the signaling travels in the upstream direction toward the PMU source, the multicast process will be building a downstream route to the receiver instantiating the group address, Ga, into the IP multicast routing table in each router along the path. If this is not the first receiver to join the specific group, the multicast signaling will travel back toward the PMU source until it arrives at a router, whereby it can join an existing multicast tree which is already transmitting data from the specific PMU source Sa, towards Ga. From the source to the receivers for a particular (S,G) pair, the path structure looks like a tree with branches pointing out to the various receivers which lie at the ends of the branches. Figure 2 displays IP signaling in the upstream direction.
This shows a major benefit of IP Multicast in that it does not implement multiple copies of the same data stream from the source PMU. It implements a single stream in the form of a tree (an upside-down tree in the S to G direction) which branches off at particular points in the network in order to efficiently reach all receivers or members of the particular multicast group. A router where a tree branches off replicates the multicast packets out each interface required in the downstream direction.
Receiving Data from the Multicast Source
Once the tree is built from the FHR to the LHR, multicast traffic can begin to be forwarded to the receiver or receivers. Receivers can join and disconnect from the tree at any time. At the LHR, the traffic is forwarded onto the local LAN to which the receiver is attached. Most receivers and sources are connected to LHRs and FHRs using Ethernet LANs. In some cases PMUs are connected to concentrators using fiber pptic or copper serial links. The concentrators output PMU signal traffic encapsulated in IP in Ethernet or directly in Ethernet frames. The Ethernet frames in which the IP multicast traffic is encapsulated will implement an Ethernet multicast address. This will signal to the local LAN computers that this is a multicast packet. The Ethernet multicast address is derived from the IP multicast group address. Receivers will know which Ethernet multicast address to look for that corresponds with the group address specified in the (S,G) pair or pairs they are working with. The receivers can verify the IP source address when they pull the IP Multicast packet in for initial processing.
How to Implement IGMPv3 on a Windows or Linux Receiver Platform
Service components (that is, PDC, historian) can be integrated in the proposed PMU architecture by ensuring IGMPv3 is supported within the operating system and software application on the receiving platform. This can be as simple as modifying your application to make a call to a standard IGMPv3 routine in order to establish the platform or application as an IP Multicast receiver. This has been recently accomplished by the following systems vendors: SISCO[4], OSISoft[5], and InStep[6], and has been demonstrated[7] publicly at a recent North American SynchroPhasor Initiative (NASPI) meeting.
Using IP Multicast to Scale the Network
As PMU data becomes more important to daily operations of the power utilities, PMUs will likely proliferate in number as well as geographic location. PMU data increasingly will be used for not only monitoring, but also for closed-loop control. As a result, consumption of PMU data is also likely to expand, resulting in the need to deliver PMU data to many locations within the same network domain and to other network domains. Other network domains include other utilities as well as ISOs, RSOs, academic institutions, and others.
As PMU networks grow in size and complexity, the need to scale the delivery of PMU data, as well as the reliability of this delivery, will increase dramatically. IP Multicast is best positioned to help PMU networks scale.
Adapting PMUs to Work with IP Multicast
Native Multicast
Most, if not all, PMUs do not implement native IP Multicast for message transmission. In order to operate easily within a multicast network, the PMU will be required to implement multicast natively. At a minimum, the following capabilities will be needed:
● Transmission of a packet in multicast format
● Support for multiple group addresses
● Support for multiple source addresses may be useful in certain cases*
● Ability to compute UDP header checksum. The header checksum can also be left un-computed in cases where intermediate routers cannot or are not configured to compute the checksum. Some PMUs compute the UDP checksum when transmitting PMU messages.
Note: The middle two bullets imply that the PMU will be able to transmit multiple streams concurrently; something they already do using IP Unicast. An example of this could be the need for transmitting messages to two different groups of receivers having different data requirements. One group could reside on the local network domain and the other which could reside on an external network domain. Each group could receive data from the same PMU that had been tailored to suit their particular requirements.)
IP Unicast Control Plane
PMUs today typically implement a set of management control and response commands, as well as a PMU message transmission function. This allows a separation of control and data plane functions which can be beneficial for various reasons. An example of such control plane functions is described in the IEEE C37.118-2005 standard document. This document describes, CONFIGURATION I & II, COMMAND, and HEADER frames which contain commands and responses that are used in conversations between the server (for example, PMU) and client (that is, PMU consumer and possible PMU control entity). The data messages are referred to as DATA frames. In an IP Multicast network architecture, a separate IP Unicast-based control plane is desirable for the following reasons:
● Ability to implement a control entity separate from the client or receiver
● Ability to implement a separate security implementation for control and data functions
● It permits the implementation of a control entity within one network domain and a receiver or client entity in a separate network domain
● Allows the implementation of three distinct PMU-related entities, including a management entity, as well asthe client and server entities. The management entity does not need to be one and the same as the client entity.
Multicast Conversion for Legacy Equipment
PMUs Which Do Not Support the IP Protocol Suite
Legacy equipment which will never implement multicast capabilities can be supported by Unicast-to-Multicast conversion capabilities. This capability is implemented within the Cisco 2010 Connected Grid Router. This functionality will allow the PMU to continue to operate normally with respect to the control and data planes.
A pre-configured FHR can ingest one or more data IP/UDP Unicast streams from one or more PMUs and then convert each of these streams to multicast. This newly-converted unicast-to-multicast traffic can then be forwarded in the downstream direction once receivers have become active for the relevant (S,G) pair(s).
PMUs Which Support the IP Protocol Suite
In the case of PMUs which support direct Ethernet encapsulation of measurement messages (for example, GOOSE or sampled values), and which require the transmission of these messages across the WAN, special functionality such as that implemented in the SISCO IEC 61850-90-5 Bridge[8] can be used to encapsulate the GOOSE or sampled values messages into IP Multicast messages. The bridge consists of transmitter and receiver components. The receiver at the far end of the WAN can de-capsulate and restore GOOSE or sampled values messages to their original state (messages encapsulated directly into Ethernet frames) on the destination LAN.[9] The SISCO 90-5 bridge works seamlessly with the IP Multicast implementation proposed here, taking advantage of all the benefits it has to offer.
UDP and TCP Transport Protocols
Reliability, Availability, and Multicast
The basic implementation of this architecture recommends the use of UDP over IP Multicast. Unlike Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), UDP is a non-reliable protocol. Many applications require PMU data to arrive with minimal delay, as well as to arrive with consistent timing. TCP is implemented by end hosts, such as the PMU and the PMU data receiver. When using TCP in today's IP Unicast implementations, any PMU messages that do not arrive at the receiver will be retransmitted by the originating host. When being retransmitted, a delay, roughly equivalent to the round-trip-time (RTT) between transmitter and receiver is added to transmission time of the original PMU message. Depending on the additional delay introduced by the retransmission, this delay may or may not be acceptable to the consuming application for various reasons, including the ability to time-synchronize time-relevant messages from multiple PMUs. In addition, TCP is not recommended for multicast because of the one-to-many nature of multicast and the delays associated with retransmitting lost packets.
If the goal is to have a highly reliable and high-performance PMU network, there are many different ways this can be achieved. The first step is to implement a well designed and operated network which minimizes transmission interruptions, packet loss, and packet re-ordering, as well as delay. Various tools can be implemented to ensure that PMU data arrives at the receivers reliably. These include the use of tools such as Pragmatic General Multicast[10] (PGM—IETF RFC-3208) for a reliable transport over multicast, as well as various live-live schemes in which multiple copies of the PMU message streams can be implemented to ensure reliability of delivery. PGM is an implementation developed for reliability specifically for multicast. TCP was designed primarily for use with IP Unicast transmissions.
An additional tool, Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP), encapsulated as IP/UDP/RTP, provides packet sequence numbering and time-stamping. This could benefit network quality monitoring by providing feedback on the path quality used by the PMU messages.
The live-live model implements identically-replicated IP packets from a PMU signal source. These duplicate streams can be transmitted along the same network path but with a time-differential within the tolerance of PMU measurements. Alternately, using traffic engineering techniques, including MPLS Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) functionality, the duplicate PMU signal feeds can be spacially displaced whereby they take two separate physical paths through the network. Combining these techniques with RTP can make the live-live solution a very robust implementation for PMU data availability.
Inter-Domain Communications
PMU Data Sharing
There is a requirement to share PMU data between utilities, and between utilities and ISOs and RSOs. In both cases, PMU data will traverse network domain boundaries. As a result, there will be a need to integrate IP Multicast information and signaling between domains.
Multicast Across Network Domains
The use of Protocol Independent Multicast source-specific mode, (PIM-SSM) makes multicast data transfer, and the relevant signaling and tree setup, much easier than its predecessor, the Protocol Independent Multicast any-source multicast (PIM-ASM) model. Source-specific mode (SSM) presents a marked improvement over any-source multicast (ASM) in that Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) is no longer necessary for inter-domain source discovery. MSDP is a relatively complex protocol to configure and has limitations in scale when handling a large amount of multicast source information. Because of this simplification, the need to no longer rely on MSDP is a major benefit of using SSM, particularly for inter-domain multicast routing.
An important issue here is the ability to easily implement inter-domain multicast integration at the network edge (in the gateway routers). As a result, the access by one utility or ISO, for example, to a second utility's shared PMU data can easily traverse the domain boundaries necessary for the data sharing to take place. Figure 3 shows what interdomain sharing looks like.
PMU-Level Control Signaling
A Utility can retain management control over its PMUs within its network domain while still allowing a secondary Utility or ISO to obtain data from its PMUs. This is done solely through the IP multicast implementation. Once a receiver signals its intent to receive data from another PMU, multicast signaling will take place and enable the flow of data across network domain boundaries.
Let's consider a scenario in which two utilities share PMU data with each other across an intermediate NASPInet domain. In this case, there are two domain boundary traversals between utility A and the NASPInet, and the NASPInet and utility B or ISO. The receiver signals to its local gateway (the LHR from the PMU-receiver perspective) which in turn signals back through the various domains and across the inter-domain boundaries back to the FHR front-ending the PMU in question. As long as the owning utility has configured the PMU for data transmission, and the receiver has appropriate access rights (that is, has the encryption keys associated with the particular PMU it wishes to receive data from or has access to the (S,G) information needed to initiate the request for data from a particular PMU in the first place), the receiver will be able to receive data from the remote utility's PMU across the utilities' inter-domain borders.
Integrating with the PMU Registry
In order for clients and receivers to be able to specify to the network which PMU they wish to receive data from, they must have some contextual understanding of how the information relates to the data they want to receive. Current examples of PMU registries[11] include those being developed and maintained by Grid Protection Alliance for the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) Registry. A PMU Registry is one potential and relevant tool to provide such contextual relevance. As such, the PMU Registry could integrate the (S,G) multicast information for the particular PMU within the metadata related to the registered PMU. This way, potential receivers of this data can reference the PMU registry to glean the necessary data for them to be able to establish themselves as a receiver of the data.
Cyber Security and PMU Data Transport Encryption
Group Encrypted Transport VPN (GETVPN)
Network security is an important requirement for synchrophasor networks as an essential part of the critical infrastructure. Network security measures should be already integrated into the architecture from the beginning. IP Multicast itself comes with features such as segmentation and path isolation that do meet typical security requirements for PMU traffic.
PMU data transport security can be implemented using Cisco® GETVPN. GETVPN is based on a tunnel-less VPN architecture. Main features, such as any-to-any instant connectivity, native routing (no overlays), advanced quality of service (QoS), as well as efficient multicast replication are providing an excellent foundation for a scalable architecture. GETVPN is based on various industry standards for both control and data planes. GETVPN will encrypt PMU multicast packets between the FHR and the LHRs. It is possible to deploy GETVPN across network domain boundaries in order to support secure transport for inter-domain PMU data exchange. Multiple groups can be defined in order to support intra-domain PMU traffic as well as inter-domain PMU traffic. Two separate security domains can be created to support different security requirements for inter- and intra-domain PMU transport. GETVPN implements various features to support redundancy and availability to help ensure that the encryption architecture is robust and survivable. GETVPN can be overlaid directly onto the IP Multicast architecture proposed in this document.
Depending on the requirements, the security capabilities offered by GETVPN between the FHR and the LHRs can be extended by using IEC 62351-6-2007 implemented by the publishers and subscribers of GOOSE messages and sampled values data. IEC 62351-6:2007 provides cryptographic integrity for IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE and IEC61850-9-2 sampled values. This approach supports all scenarios where perimeters are defined in an end-to-end scenario.
IP Multicast Live Demonstration
This architecture was demonstrated at NASPI during the February 2011 meeting in Fort Worth, Texas. Figure 4 offers a snapshot of the demonstration presented at that meeting. A complete presentation covering the functionality of this demonstration can be found at the NASPI website at ("Real-Time IEC 61850-90-5 Interoperability Demonstration"): http://www.naspi.org/meetings/workgroup/2011_february/presentations/tech_demo_myrda_61850_90_5_interop_20110224.pdf
Relevant to the architecture proposed by this document, the above demonstration showed:
● The operation of the IP Multicast architecture (all data was transmitted over IP Multicast across wide-area connectivity provided by Verizon Business,[12] from EPRI[13] Smart Grid facilities in Lenox, MA, Knoxville, TN and Charlotte, NC to the demonstration venue in Ft. Worth, TX)
● IP Multicast infrastructure was implemented using Cisco[14] 2010 Connected Grid Routers (CGR 2010) and Cisco 2050 Connected Grid Switches (CGS 2050) designed for use in power substations
● Implementation of IEC 61850-90-5 Bridge functionality to support GOOSE and sampled values message transport over the WAN
● Integration of service component entities with the IP Multicast using IGMPv3. This required that the various vendors—OSISoft, SISCO and InStep—modify the interface communications code in their applications in order to have them interact with IGMPv3 to become active receivers.
The growth in renewable generation from wind and solar requires greater situational awareness of grid state due to variability of these sources of generation. As a result, utilities are implementing communications and sensor networks for more precise measurement and control of grid state. Synchrophasor networks are deployed to improve visibility and control of wide regions of the electric grid. PMU deployments must be able to scale across organizational boundaries to derive the benefits of wide area measurement. To achieve the level of scale and value from PMUs, this paper proposes the use of proven networking technologies to scale and secure synchrophasor deployments. IP multi-cast distributes PMU data efficiently across domains and will scale with the growth in PMUdeployments. GET VPN helps ensure a highly secure method for maintaining data integrity across wide areanetworks.
The proposed network architecture can also help simplify the roll out of synchrophasor networks by helping to minimize the number of PDCs and gateways required to transport and manage PMU data. By taking full advantage of the IP network for PMU message transport, utility operators improve visibility and control of receivers, reduce unnecessary hardware, (for example, PDC stacking), and reduce operations and maintenance expenses associated with managing synchrophasor networks.

Listen, we get it. Of all people, we get it. Sometimes you let an errant comma slip. Maybe you don't notice that something is a sentence fragment because you're riding the waves of hangover nausea. We understand that sometimes being an editor is rough, but how the how do you wind up with a headline that looks like it says "Rapefruit Good for every meal"?
On the downside, we wouldn't be surprised if that person no longer has a job. On the bright side, rapefruit?!! HAHAHAHA! Here are some more gaffs by editors who probably got sent packing.

Reader Maarten, from the Bureau voor Gamers, sent us this cool project he and his team recently completed, turning an old Nintendo DS "phat" into what's basically a more modern model of the Game Boy.
It's not the most complex of hack jobs I've ever seen, seeing as all they've really done is remove the DS' top screen and repaint the case, but it's still a neat end result, especially since they've gone for the GameCube-esque "spice" colour scheme.
Why would you do it, when the DS already plays Game Boy games? It's old, likely abandoned hardware. Why not do something to spruce it up a little.
You can check out progress shots and a build report at the link below.

Luka, Miku, IA and the twins, Len and Rin! I have too many.
I love so many of them, but I think my favorite are the Kagamine Twins, closely followed by IA, Luka and Miku.
Normal? What's normal? To only do what the masses do? And what is the benefit of that? Where is the problem in adopting a custom that is 'abnormal' if it has no negative affect on the world at large?
~ Ichihara Yuuko
I really like Gumi!
and also Rin, IA, Kaito and Miku's genderbend : Mikuo
and the shota Leeenn <3
1.Len Kagamine ^ ^
2.Hatsune Miku
3.Rin Kagamine
I am an avenger
I can't die because
I need to kill a certain someone before then
I don't have a favorite because I have too many...

Fall seven times, stand up eight.- Japanese proverb
It's strange, the only Vocaloid I ever felt a real solid connection with is Luka. Sorta started getting a similar vibe in regards to IA, but it never solidified.
GUMI is my favorite, followed by Kaito and MAYU <3
After seeing all these mentions of MAYU, I think I need to listen to more of her. o.o
Favorites are still KAITO and SF-A2 miki. :P Favorite producers are ShinjouP and CircusP/Matt9Five, respectively. c:
1st : Megurine Luka
2nd : Hatsune Miku
3rd : --
(I prefer UTAITE)
Well my favorite Vocaloid is my husband, Kamui Gakupo ♥
Next would be IA~
Len and Luka I guess.
May peace bestow this world,
May our hearts unite.
Life may not be smooth as pearl,
But pray for our decisions to be always right.
Life may be hard, it's a big pain in the butt. But hey, who says behind all those pain, can't hide some happiness ?
Hmm... Let's see...
1. Len Kagamine
2. Rin Kagamine (So cute. :3)
3. Miku Hatsune
4. Luka Megurine
5. Gumi Megpoid
6. Kaito (I'm only just starting to like him.)
7. Oliver
The rest I've either never heard so I can't judge (Engloids except Oliver come to mind...), or I just simply don't like them. (I don't hate all of them, just a lot of them.)
It's a hard choice between, Rin Kagamine and Miku Hatsune, Lol.
Rep Goal: 6000
[ AnimePedia.com | AnimeGalleries.Net | AnimeLyrics.com| AnimeWallpapers.com ]
My favorite Vocaloid is Miku ACT2.
And My favorite Utauloid is Momo Momone. I just thaught I'd throw that in there...
人類は調和したのか?VY2V3 = Me | Kagamine Len Act 1 = You
It's pretty close between Rin and Miku, but I'd have to go with Rin, she's too awesome. Miku's a close second so I can't leave her out.The rest.... aren't that good to me minus Gumi
Edited, no wait I forgot about Luka... so then um... Rin, Miku, Luka, Gumi, Len, Kaito

GUMI, Len, Rin, MAYU.
I'll make a list too c:
1) KAMUI GAKUPO ♥ (Kinda obvious isn't it?)

Here is my Summit with the new 1973 Ford Bronco body from Proline painted Pactra fiery orange with a black roof. It also has Trencher X's on Desperados and the Proline roof rack. I also made ropes to pull other trucks that get stuck. Then I shortened the summit light bar and mounted it to the roof rack so I can run it at night with more light.
I made a chassis cover out of vinyl cloth to keep the electronics clean from mud, snow and dirt. I tried it out in the snow this weekend and it worked great. Saved me $40 from having to buy an outerwears cover.
That ford bronco body looks amazing on there. Great job!
I need to get one of those and try painting. Which proline bronco body is that. Is it the one that says fits the emaxx and tmaxx? Or is it a different one?

There are many times when the film picked for best picture at the Oscars tend to be what many would consider the wrong film. Too often these days the award is given to a prestige picture, a film that no one saw and chances are that they won't even though it won the award. Popular pictures seem to be ignored for more artistic films. This past year saw a marriage of the two, a film that not only entertained and did decent at the box office but that told a solid tale without resorting to simplistic feats. That film arrives on DVD this week, THE KING'S SPEECH.
Opening in 1925, the Duke of York, Albert Frederick Arthur George, was the younger of two brothers to King George V. Played here with a combination of weakness and strength by Colin Firth (who won the Oscar for best actor); Albert is a beaten man when it comes to all things royal. He knows his brother is heir to the crown and is fine with that. But he's had a problem since childhood that affects him on a daily basis. He is quite tongue tied with a stammer that impedes him from making any speeches whatsoever.
Consulting doctor after doctor with the help of his wife Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter) he all but gives up hope. Then she hears of a doctor of a different sort, one who has a record of being able to help each patient sent his way.
Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush) is unconventional at best. An Australian now in London, he takes on case after case while hoping to land a career in the theatre. With the arrival of Elizabeth and sworn to secrecy, he sets the ground rules. It is he who will decided if he takes the case or not and when in his locale both men become equals. To make his point, he takes to calling Albert "Bertie", a nickname only members of the royal family have used in the past. While Albert isn't aware, Lionel understands it's not the symptoms that just need treated but the cause as well. And until Albert comes to grips with this, the cure will only be temporary.
The two men work on a daily basis as Lionel helps Albert overcome his fears to a certain extent. He does improve but near as much as he would like. Still unable to make a public speech, setbacks occur more often when he's in the presence of his father or his more popular brother, Edward (Guy Pearce).
At present Edward isn't quite so popular with his father. Haven taken up with a married woman named Mrs. Wallis Simpson doesn't sit well with either his father or the countries politicians. Should he take on the mantel of King he would also be the head of the Church of England, a church that doesn't believe in divorce or remarrying. And King he does become when his father passes away.
Forced to choose between his love of Mrs. Simpson and his duties to his country, Edward rescinds the crown and Bertie is now next in line to become King. With the help of Logue, he makes it through the ceremony and is now King George VI. But fires are burning across Europe. Hitler is on the move and soon makes his play in Poland. And now Bertie must gather together his strength and inspire a nation with a speech. Has all the work paid off or not?
Based on the true history of these two men, the film slowly develops not just the story but shows the development of the two men as well. One born into high society and the other the son of a drunk, they have little in common and yet learn more from one another than would be expected. And through their learning they become possibly the best friend that either of them has ever had.
Not only did the film win for best picture it also garnered Oscars for best screenplay and best director. It deserved them both. Not only that, Rush should have won for best supporting actor as his part is as important to the story as Firth's character was. Did the film deserve the awards it was given? Most definitely. This is a story that inspires just with the tale alone. There are no outward heroics with guns blazing. Instead we are inspired by the courage of one man to face his fears, to overcome his disability and to become the voice of his nation.
The true test to me of a good film is if I would consider watching it again. So many films are fun once but not a second or even third time. This is a film that will remain on my shelf and on occasion come down to be watched again. It truly is that good. It's not just a film that qualifies for a good rental, its worth owning.

It's natural to be nervous before a job interview. But did you know there are some simple tricks you can use to calm your nerves? In an article on Forbes.com, a group of renowned career experts give excellent advice on how to calm your nerves before and during an important job interview. Follow these simple tips and you're sure to do great!
1. Be Prepared.
- Do research: on the company, their products, their competition, on the position you're applying for, anything! The more you know the more confident you'll sound.
2. Plan.
- Work out little details beforehand, instead of the morning of. Print your resume, iron you pants and shirt, map out your route and check traffic reports. Don't let unexpected delays catch you off guard.
3. Rehearse.
- You don't need to memorize a script, but preparing what you would like to say can be a big help. Remember, practice makes perfect!
4. Eliminate the Unknown.
- If you're not sure about the company's dress code, call their HR department and ask. The fear of the unknown can make you unnecessarily nervous so sort out any uncertainties before your interview.
5. Arrive Early and Relax.
- Allow yourself plenty of time. Before going inside, take a few minutes to sit in your car and gather your thoughts.
6. Think of the Interview as a Conversation.
- If you think of the interview more like a conversation between two people it is easier to stay calm. Both of you are trying to get to know each other and access whether you would be a good fit for each other.
7. Think Positive and Be Confident.
- Don't let negative thoughts of doing poorly wreck your interview before you even start. Visualize yourself doing a great job, and it's more likely to come true!
8. Think Friend, Not Foe.
- Remember that the interviewer is not your enemy. They simply want to know if you will be a good fit for their company. Taking the time to learn a little bit about the person who will be interviewing you will help you to visualize them as just a regular person.
9. Sit Up Straight and Don't Fidget.
- It's no secret that you appear more confident when you are sitting up straight, but it also helps project your voice and make you sound better, too!
10. Normalize.
- Realizing that it's normal to be nervous is a big step in helping to calm your nerves. Don't sweat it!
11. Focus on Your Strengths and Your Purpose.
- Try this: Imagine you already got the job. Why is that? By thinking about all of your strong points you can focus on portraying yourself the way you want the interviewer to see you instead of worrying about inadequacies.
12. Breathe and Take Your Time.
- Deep breathing increases the oxygen going to your brain and helps calm your nerves. If you need time to gather your thoughts before answering a question, take a deep breath, even jot down a few notes. It will help to keep you on track.
13. Accept the Fact that Mistakes Will Happen.
- We all know nobody is perfect. And truthfully employers aren't looking for perfection either. If you remember this it will be easier to take the pressure of and focus on doing your best.
14. Remember There Are Other Jobs Out There.
- It's easy to get caught up thinking that if this interview doesn't go well you're doomed to unemployment forever. But don't put all your eggs in one basket! There will be other jobs!

HIPAA Security Assessment Toolkit
We are a web-based service for Medical (see target audience information) Service providers. Our toolkit walks service providers through an extremely precarious process of ensuring their organization meets and exceeds laws and regulations set forth by the federal government in relation to the keeping of medical records. Without our toolkit the process each provider faces is daunting, cumbersome & extremely time intensive. Our toolkit acts as a proven, experience, tested guide that walks providers through the process step by step; thus removing all fear & uncertainty.
The toolkit is a web-based tool at the forefront of it's emerging market that allows users to track their progress, delegate tasks, and weigh both the risk and complication level of each task involved in the process.
There is nothing else like our toolkit available.
In short, we are dealing with the highest level of professional decision makers inside health service, health insurance, and medical record handling organizations.
Our product guides these organizations effectively to the end goal of HIPAA compliance.
In very short, our product REDUCES RISK of not being fully compliant with the HIPAA laws.
A bit more info:
Generally speaking the target audience has three main groups:
1. Providers of Health Related Services (Hospitals, Physicians, Ambulatory Surgery Centers, Nursing Homes, Outpatient Medical Service Providers, Dentists, Chiropractors, etc)
2. Insurance Companies
3. Business Associates that interact with either group above in any way that involves the handling of patient medical records.
Within the above groups we are targeting specifically the upper level decision makers. People that fall into the following categories:
1. CEO, CAO, COO and CFO
2. Board Members working to achieve HIPAA compliance
3. Various upper level decision makers.
Friends, Thanks for the submissions! We are seeing great work :) We'd like to see a version of the logo using the following concept:
Handoff of Medical cross. Think of how runners hand a baton off in a relay race (image sample - http://bit.ly/d4C63Y ) - refrain from using an actual runner .. just use the arm / hand portion in some fashion to simulate the handoff ;)
Looking forward to seeing your creativity!
We know you will be tempted to play off the "Toolkit" imagery. Please recognize that we are nearly certain that this imagery will not result in a contest winning submission. We want you to use your recognized creative ability to produce another angle for us.
A logo that screams the following:
Risk Reduction
Expert Guidance Through A Cumbersome Process
Protection and Calm amidst the Storm
Security, Sophistication, Competence, and Sincerity are all keywords used to describe our company.
Another way to think of this logo is:
The destination is HIPAA Compliance for our target audience. The road taking you there is one filled with pitfalls, annoyances, and extreme tediousness. Our product is a guide, light, protector, map, that will deliver our target audience to it's destination with the least amount of trouble along the way.
As for final logo files, we require fully editable vector artwork that is free from any licensing restrictions (including art, elements, and fonts).
Best of luck!

OAKLAND — Shoppers and bargain hunters can get an early crack at one of the Bay Area's biggest rummage sales during the upcoming preview to the Oakland Museum of California's annual White Elephant Sale.
The full-scale White Elephant Sale is March 2-3. But the museum will throw open the doors to its 96,000 square-foot warehouse on the Oakland estuary from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 27 for an early shot at candelabras, gowns, bangles, wheelchairs, walkers, paintings, sofas, rugs, books, sweaters, stoles, silver sets and occasionally the wildly unexpected.
In the past, donors have given pianos, turn-of-the-century bassinets, cars and even a pony, although organizers have disagreed about whether the pony was stuffed or live, or if donors had given one of each at some time in the sale's 54-year history.
This year, the Society of Asian Art donated Chinese porcelain and carvings. There are first edition books, a collection of globes and "a ton of off-the-wall things," said Sheri Guthrie, president of the Oakland Museum Women's Board, the organization behind the sale.
The corps of about 100 women plus some 1,000 volunteers work year-round to put on the sale, according to Guthrie.
The money they raise from the sale — $1.8 million in 2012 — helps pay for acquisitions, educational programs, capital improvements and other expenses for the museum, such as the "Summoning Ghosts" exhibit by Chinese-born American artist Hung Liu opening March 16.
The Museum Women's Board began meeting back in 1955 and helped raise money to found the Oakland Museum in 1969. Their work earned them the early moniker "bouffant mafia."
"They were tough and knew what they wanted and got it," Guthrie said. The current business-minded generation purchased the warehouse the size of two football fields on the Oakland estuary. "And it's full," Guthrie said, advising shoppers to wear comfortable shoes and clothes.
If shoppers don't find what they're looking for at the preview, they should not hesitate to come back on March 2-3, Guthrie said. "We have a van that goes out every day to pick up treasures." Advance $15 tickets can be purchased at www.WhiteElephantSale.org or at the museum store on the second floor, 1000 Oak St. The entry fee is $20 at the door on Jan. 27.

NCAA Corporate Partners, Local Firms All For Hoops First Four Festivities
By Barry Janoff
March 8, 2012: The frenzy that is March Madness added another element last year with the introduction of the First Four, which officially opens the NCAA men's basketball Division I Tournament.
This season, the First Four is expanding to include several days of pre-tournament festivities, which NCAA corporate partners and local marketers have embraced.
The First Four games will take place at the University of Dayton (Ohio) Arena, March 13-14. But on March 11, the inaugural First Four Festival will begin in Dayton proper. Under the auspices of the Dayton-Montgomery County Convention and Visitors Bureau, NCAA and local partners will activate on several levels during what is being described as "a huge street party along several blocks in the city's cobblestoned Oregon historic district."
The First Four was created as part of CBS Sports and Turner Broadcasting's joint 14-year deal with the NCAA that began in 2011.
The introduction of the First Four helped boost Tournament-related ad spend in 2011. The top ten advertisers spent a total of $272.7 million on March Madness marketing while total ad revenue reached an all-time high of $738 million, up 20.2% from the prior year, according to research firm Kantar Media, New York.
The First Four Festival and March 13-14 games are expected to bring at least $4 million into the local economy, per the Dayton-Montgomery County Convention and Visitors Bureau.
According to Dayton City commissioner Nan Whaley, "We are excited to be working with the NCAA, and we expect the events to garner much more positive, national attention for our community."
NCAA corporate champions are Coca-Cola, Capital One and AT&T. Official corporate partners are Allstate, Buick, Enterprise, Infinity, LG, Loew's, Northwest Mutual, Hershey's Reese's, Unilever, UPS and Kraft's Wheat Thins.
Most are expected to have a presence at the First Four Festival via signage, on-site experiential marketing or other activations. Many will also have on-air presence during First Four games.
"We are excited to be working with the NCAA, and we expect the events to garner much more positive, national attention for our community."
Turner's truTV will air First Four games in prime time. CBS and Turner's TNT and TBS will then show all games from the ensuing rounds leading to the Final Four, which will air on CBS March 31 and April 2 from the Mercerdes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
This year's field will be unveiled during a national broadcast on March 11 on CBS. Two of the First Four first-round games will feature the last four at-large teams selected by the NCAA on "Selection Sunday," while the other two games will match teams ranked 65 through 68 on the overall seed list. The winners of the four games then advance to the second round.
Last year, Virginia Commonwealth University was one of the eight First Four teams. VCU ultimately advanced to the Final Four before losing in the semi-finals to Butler.
Last year, the University of Dayton Arena drew 20,217 fans over two days for the inaugural First Four. The University was then selected to host the First Four this month and again in March 2012, when second- and third-round games will also be played there, according to the NCAA.
Among the activations scheduled for the First Four Festival will be big-screen TVs broadcasting conference championship games and the NCAA selection show, a basketball tournament showcasing former players from the University of Dayton and other in-state colleges, live entertainment and an "NCAA First Four 4 Miler" race that will start and end in the midst of the festival.
"We want to show the country that Dayton means basketball," Tim Wabler, vice president and director of athletics at the University of Dayton, said in a statement.

One inherent advantage TurboGears has over monolithic frameworks is in its ability to exploit the best in already existing and supported component projects rather than having to duplicate their efforts. A consequence of this ability is the ease with which components can be swapped for alternative choices when preferred by the developer.
Installing one or more of these options into your library is very simple. It is possible to call upon an alternate component on an as needed basis, for example for just a single template reference. Or, Quickstart Templates can allow for rapid configuration of a new project which has an alternate component as its new default.
You can find most of TurboGears alternative components at http://www.turbogears.org/cogbin/
Free your productivity by taking advantage of 5000+ Python modules at the Cheeseshop (aka the Python Package Index, PyPI).

Suppose that we have $a=p_1 \cdot p_2\cdot p_3=q_1\cdot q_2\cdots q_s$ where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ and $q_1,q_2,...,q_s$ are primes. Explain why $s=3$.
This seems like a pointless question, but is it $3$ because $p_n$ doesn't go past $p_3$?
I'm still having a hard time with this question. I'm mainly not understanding what it is asking.
