State Identifies IT Security Issues (Dec 07, 2012)
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Oklahoma's chief information officer says the state is working to resolve security deficiencies in its information technology systems.
Chief Information Officer Alex Pettit told members of a legislative panel that analysts have found many deficiencies in information security protocols as they work to consolidate state information technology systems.
Pettit says none of the agencies whose systems are now consolidated had been operating under a complete set of basic security operations. Some agencies were not using firewall management, anti-virus protection and network monitoring. And no agencies had developed an incident response or security incident and event management plan.
The deficiencies could have compromised the personal financial data of those who do business with the state - but officials say there is no indication that has occurred.

Review: Aventail's 'Smart Tunneling' enhances VPN
The EX-1500 SSL VPN appliance offers a high level of security, using network layer transport, and strong and granular upper-layer policy and access control.
Price: Starts at $9,995
Aventail's EX-1500 SSL VPN combines secure remote communication to any network application or re-source with the enterprise-class muscle of load-balancing and high availability capable of supporting up to 1,000 concurrent connections.
Aventail boasts that the EX-1500 is all the VPN your organization will need, combining the strong suits from the IPSec and SSL worlds through its patented Smart Tunneling technology.
Smart Tunneling provides a network layer connection for robust and secure transport, and moves up the stack, bringing more granularity to policy and access control not only for HTTP and Web-based e-mail apps, but client/server TCP apps such as MS Exchange. It also supports and videoconferencing, streaming media, VoIP, Active FTP, remote control apps and others.
Smart Tunneling's virtual client IP addressing offers full bidirectional control, which alleviates the NAT traversal issues commonly encountered with IPSec clients behind firewalls.
The EX-1500 appliance has an intuitive Web-based console that supports both Internet Explorer and Firefox; the device can also be managed via SSH or serial connection. Enterprises will enjoy the flexibility of authentication and authorization, including server- or client-side digital certificates and passwords, and support for RSA SecurID, Active Directory, LDAP and RADIUS.
The tabbed management environment lets administrators easily set up and manage resources, which are defined as network objects and can include applications, URLs, IP address ranges, domains and drive mappings.
The only downside to the management console is that the controls are so granular, many of them feature controls hidden under "Advanced" menus and can be easily missed by those unfamiliar with the extent of available options.
There's a lot of substance behind that interface, with flexible groupings and policy settings, and well-planned security capabilities.
The EX-1500 defines levels of access to resources and methods for authentication in terms of realms, which are based on individual authentication servers--if you have multiple authentication servers, you will have multiple realms. For example, one realm may be a RADIUS server using token-based authentication, and another could be AD using username/password.
Within realms, user communities are defined to deter- mine levels of authorization and to enforce access based on security policy, either through integration with third-party endpoint security providers, or a clientless technique for those devices without agent-based security.
The clientless method supports multiple zones of trust based on the remote device's level of risk.
In our lab, we set up separate zones for trusted and untrusted devices. At logon, the EX-1500 attempts to match "fingerprints" (applications such as personal firewalls, AV software or registry keys) to those defined by policy. Our Palm device and public PC were denied access to critical Web apps and file shares because they didn't have the requisite security apps.
The EX-1500 features robust monitoring, logging and reporting. Performance and event alarms can be monitored through the console and SNMP. Crystal Reports is supported, in addition to Aventail's packaged templates for auditing, technical and management reporting.
Despite a fairly steep price, the EX-1500 deserves serious consideration as a replacement to IPSec, and a space in the enterprise security appliance rack, thanks to its robust security features, application support and easy administration.
This product review originally appears in the September 2005 issue of Information Security magazine.

The New Google Social Network - Google+Blog Post: June 30, 2011
I agree re: hangouts. I like the idea of it but in reality you are still just watching your friends sit at their computers! I find if i want to see my friends then i'll go and see them, i'll only use instant messaging when i can't see them so the hangout idea isn't appealing to me in reference to real time video chat. However, it is great for friends in other countries for a skype-like feature. I think Google+'s main difference from Facebook is that it has better security and Google is a more trusted brand than Facebook. I reckon that Google+ could become much more than what it currently is as Google adds new features, but many people who aren't in the digital industry won't have much interest in it as a social network as Facebook is sufficient enough for them as it is. I recently wrote about Google+ and why people do/don't like it, take a look and let me know your thoughts!

The Colorado Rapids were unable to carry forward the momentum gained from last week's road victory against Chivas, settling for a 2-2 draw with the visiting Chicago Fire in the club's home opener
The draw will be more satisfying for Chicago given their opening loss in New York last week. Both Brian McBride and Collins John started for the visitors, and they showed some improvement in the attacking third as a result.
For the Rapids, it was the first time they have failed to win their opening home game of the season since Dick's Sporting Goods Park opened in 2007.
The Rapids went into half time 2-1 up after a spectacular goal from Omar Cummings and a penalty kick from Conor Casey sandwiched a header from Chicago's Collins John. An early second half penalty kick from Brian McBride restored parity.
Cummings started the scoring in the 13th minute, picking up a pass from Mehdi Ballouchy and finding himself in a few yards of space. The Jamaican enjoyed those extra seconds of freedom, picked his spot and calmly sidefooted a powerful right-foot shot perfectly into the corner from just outside the penalty area for his second goal of the season.
But just as Chicago appeared to give the dangerous forward too much space, so too did the Rapids as John took full advantage of some lax defending to head home a corner in the 25th minute. Many in the stadium felt the corner should never have been given as the ball appeared out before Rapids fullback Danny Earls forced it out for sure.
Casey then notched his first goal of the season from the penalty spot after Colin Clark ran dangerously into the penalty box and was tripped.
The second half began just as the first ended. Just minutes in, the dangerous Patrick Nyarko outstripped Marvell Wynne down the left and Wynne fouled the Ghanaian in the penalty area. McBride equalized from the spot.
The Rapids pressed and pressed with Cummings, Casey and Clark trying to break through but few chances were actually created and the Rapids were left frustrated by the result.
Misconduct Summary:
COL -- Marvell Wynne (caution; Reckless Tackle) 22
COL -- Colin Clark (caution; Simulation) 31
CHI -- Marco Pappa (caution; Unsporting Behavior) 42

Written mainly from the hippo's perspective, "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" is an original Christmas story, by best-selling author and illustrator, Riley Weber. On Christmas Eve, after getting some fresh air outside, Henry the hippo, who loves Christmas, see's Santa's sleigh come and land on his roof. Curious Henry decides to take a peek inside Santa's sleigh, when he suddenly hears Santa coming back up the chimney. Not wanting to get caught, Henry the Hippo makes a quick decision to hop inside Santa's bag full of Christmas presents to hide. That is where Henry's real adventure takes off. Away Henry goes, on Santa's sleigh, hidden deep inside his big bag full of presents.
Half a world away, a kid that's been very good, named Sterling, wishes he could get a real hippopotamus for Christmas. Little does he know, Santa might just have an answer for that Christmas wish, and he doesn't even know it yet.
Kids will enjoy this original Christmas story, with its Christmas themed, cartoony illustrations, by Riley Weber. This book is not based on the song, "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas," sung by Gayla Peevey.
Love, care, friendship and togetherness make the Christmas time all the more unique. Reading Christmas stories together can help create an atmosphere that brings the Christmas spirit into our homes and hearts. Christmas also means spreading the affection of our heart into the lives of others & bringing in pleasure & cheers. Christmas is a perfect time to say love & good wishes for those we care about. May this Christmas be so special that you never ever feel lonely again and be surrounded by loved ones throughout, as did this hippo, who made a young boy's Christmas dream come true!

Ferrari's Fernando Alonso: 'We're still in the fight'
SHANGHAI (AP) — Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso said his struggling team is "still in the fight" after he finally got on the podium for the first time this season, finishing third at the Chinese Grand Prix.
It's been a slow start to the season for Ferrari, which has not adapted as quickly as runaway leaders Mercedes to the new fuel-efficient six-cylinder engines introduced to the sport this year.
At the Bahrain GP two weeks ago, Alonso and teammate Kimi Raikkonen could manage no better than ninth- and 10th-place finishes, respectively. Days later, the team parted ways with principal Stefano Domenicali after six years.
But Ferrari has made improvements on the car since then, giving at least Alonso a boost in Shanghai under the watch of new team principal Marco Mattiacci.
MORE:Hamilton wins third straight F1 race
"We felt more competitive and now in the race being here on the podium is some kind of surprise for us, a nice surprise, finally," he said. "We didn't have the start of the season that we would like but at the end of the day, we're still in the fight."
Alonso, who was the defending Chinese GP champion, said he's reaching the same comfort level in the car that he had in 2012 when he finished just three points behind Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel in the drivers' championship.
He managed to keep pace with the Mercedes cars in practice on Friday, and though he didn't get close to passing winner Lewis Hamilton in Sunday's race, he stayed close to second-place Nico Rosberg until the end.
MORE:Marshal accidentally waves checkered flag early
"In Bahrain, we were one minute behind the leaders, ninth and 10th, and today we are on the podium, seven seconds behind Nico," he said. "Hopefully I can keep going like this. I felt more comfortable with the car and we will not give up."
Alonso may have fared better in Shanghai, but his teammate Raikkonen continued to struggle. The Finn failed to make it into the top 10 in qualifying, starting 11th on the grid, and only moved up three spots to eighth by the finish.
"Hopefully we found some reason or at least some cure for it, to fix it, whatever it is. In the race, (the car) just was slow," he said. "Obviously there's a lot of work to do. We haven't had any single race that we've been happy with the team the whole time."

Install the Base 32-bit System
1. Create the directory:
mkdir /opt/arch32
2. Generate temporary pacman configuration files for chroot:
sed -e 's/\$arch/i686/g' /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist > /opt/arch32/mirrorlist sed -e 's@/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist@/opt/arch32/mirrorlist@g' -e '/Architecture/ s,auto,i686,' /etc/pacman.conf > /opt/arch32/pacman.conf
- These files would conflict with the normal pacman files, which will be installed in the later steps.
- For this reason they must be put into a temporary location (
/opt/arch32is used here).
- Remember to delete/comment the multilib repo, if you have enable it, in the
3. Create the directory:
mkdir -p /opt/arch32/var/{cache/pacman/pkg,lib/pacman}
4. Sync pacman:
pacman --root /opt/arch32 --cachedir /opt/arch32/var/cache/pacman/pkg --config /opt/arch32/pacman.conf -Sy
5. Install the base and optionally base-devel groups:
pacman --root /opt/arch32 --cachedir /opt/arch32/var/cache/pacman/pkg --config /opt/arch32/pacman.conf -S base base-devel sudo
Move pacman configuration files into place:
mv mirrorlist /opt/arch32/etc/pacman.d sed -i 's/\/opt\/arch32/\/etc\/pacman.d/g' /opt/arch32/pacman.conf && mv /opt/arch32/pacman.conf /opt/arch32/etc/pacman.conf
mv pacman.conf /opt/arch32/etc
Create an Arch32 Daemon Script and Systemd Service
[Unit] Description=32-bit chroot [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/arch32 start ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/arch32 stop [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

Be sure to make the init script executable:
# chmod +x /usr/local/bin/arch32
Enable the service as any other systemd service.
Configure the new system
Configuration files
Key configuration files should be copied over:
cd /opt/arch32/etc cp /etc/passwd* . cp /etc/shadow* . cp /etc/group* . cp /etc/sudoers . cp /etc/resolv.conf . cp /etc/localtime . cp /etc/locale.gen . cp /etc/profile.d/locale.sh profile.d cp /etc/vimrc . cp /etc/mtab .
Be sure to include the "." character!
Configure the chroot
Chroot into the new system:
/etc/rc.d/arch32 start xhost +SI:localuser:usernametogiveaccesstogoeshere chroot /opt/arch32
It is recommended to use a custom bash prompt inside the 32-bit chroot installation in order to differentiate from the regular system. You can, for example, add a ARCH32 string to the PS1 variable defined in
~/.bashrc. In fact, the default Debian .bashrc prompt string contains appropriate logic to report whether the working directory is within a chroot.
Before continuing, keep in mind that the file
/etc/pacman.conf from the 32-bit environment is the default one. Make sure to uncomment some mirrors in
Fix possible locale issues:
Install the needed packages including apps, fonts, etc. for example:
pacman -S acroread opera pacman -S firefox pacman -S flashplugin pacman -S mplayer-plugin
Regain space by removing some unnecessary packages.
The following shows recommended packages for removal:
pacman -Rd linux mkinitcpio pacman -R dhcpcd ppp xfsprogs reiserfsprogs jfsutils logrotate lvm2 pcmciautils netcfg heirloom-mailx iputils iproute2 man-pages mdadm inetutils man-db cronie vi
Also consider regularly clearing out pacman's cache:
pacman -Scc
Install and Configure Schroot
Install "schroot" to the native 64-bit installation:
pacman -S schroot
/etc/schroot/schroot.conf, and create an [Arch32] section.
[Arch32] type=directory profile=arch32 description=Arch32 directory=/opt/arch32 users=user1,user2,user3 groups=users root-groups=root personality=linux32 aliases=32,default

/etc/schroot/arch32/mount to match the mounts created within
Using Schroot to run a 32-bit application
The general syntax for calling an application inside the chroot is:
schroot -p -- htop
In this example, htop is called from within the 32-bit environment.
Compilation and installing
Ensure the desired options are set in the local
Some packages may require a
--host flag be added to the ./configure script in the PKBUILD:
./configure --host="i686-pc-linux" ...
This is the case when the build makes use of values (for example, the output of the
uname command) inherited from your base system.
You may need to give users write access to your chroot's /dev/null to stop some scripts from failing:
chmod 666 /dev/null
Video issues
If you get:
X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
while trying to run an application that requires video acceleration, make sure you have installed appropriate video drivers in your chroot. For example,
pacman -S nvidia
Sound in flash (youtube, etc.)
To get sound from the flash player in Firefox, open a terminal and chroot inside the 32-bit system:
chroot /opt/arch32
From there, install alsa-oss:
pacman -S alsa-oss
Then type:
export FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
Every chroot into the 32-bit system will require this export command to be entered so it may be best to incorporate it into a script.
Finally, launch Firefox.
For Wine this works the same way. The package alsa-oss will also install the alsa libs required by Wine to output sound.
Tips and tricks
Java in a chroot
See Java for installation instructions.
After installing, adjust the path to get Java working:
export PATH="/opt/java/bin/:$PATH"
Xyne has created a package that installs a minimalist 32-bit chroot as described above. More information can be found on the forum and on the project page.
Allowing 32-bit applications access to 64-bit Pulseaudio
Add these lines in
/etc/rc.d/arch32, above
add_daemon arch32:
mount --bind /var/run /opt/arch32/var/run mount --bind /var/lib/dbus /opt/arch32/var/lib/dbus
And above
rm_daemon arch32:
umount /opt/arch32/var/run umount /opt/arch32/var/lib/dbus
More information is available at the Pulseaudio article, especially the section on Pulseaudio from within a chroot.
Enabling sound in Firefox
Open a text editor and save the following in
/usr/bin/firefox32 as root:
#!/bin/sh schroot -p firefox $1;export FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
Make it executable:
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/firefox32
Now you can make an alias for Firefox, if desired:
alias firefox="firefox32"
Add this to the end of file
~/.bashrc and source it to enable its usage. Or you can just change all your desktop environment's launchers to firefox32 if you still want 64-bit Firefox to be available.
Enabling 3D acceleration
In case you want to run any 32 bit application under your chroot with 3D acceleration (e.g. WINE, native 32 bit games) you simply need to install the corresponding libs as under your "native" arch.
For an ATI card using the radeon driver this could be:
pacman -S xf86-video-ati libgl ati-dri
For more informations on how to set up your graphic adapter refer to:
Your can easily check if you have 3D rendering within the 32 bit chroot by installing mesa-demos and running the following command:
glxinfo | grep renderer
If you have no 3D acceleration you'll get some output like this:
[joe@arch64]$ OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
If 3D acceleration is enabled you'll get a message like this:
[joe@arch64]$ OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R600 (RV730 9490) 20090101 x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE2 TCL DRI2
Script for wine
In order to compile wine, you need a 32-bit system installed. Compiling wine is needed for applying patches in order to get PulseAudio working. See also wine-hacks from AUR.
Add the following alias to
alias wine='schroot -pqd "$(pwd)" -- wine'
-q switch makes schroot operate in quiet mode, so it works like "regular" wine does. Also note that If you still use dchroot instead of schroot, you should use switch
-d instead of

Date Of Birth:
25 December 1971
Place Of Birth:
London, England
Best Known As:
Singer of the tune "Here With Me" and "If I Rise"
English singer Dido came onto the pop scene in the early 2000s, and by the end of the decade was an Oscar nominee for her song "If I Rise," from the 2010 movie 127 Hours. Dido's first LP No Angel was released in 1999. The album blended her lonesome voice with a lush mix of guitars and electronics, drawing comparisons to Sinead O'Connor and Sarah McLachlan. The single "Here With Me" was chosen as the theme song for the aliens-among-us TV show Roswell, and Dido got another boost when her song "Thank You" was sampled by rapper Eminem on his 2000 song "Stan." Her albums include 2003's Life For Rent (with the single "White Flag") and 2008's Safe Trip Home.
Extra Credit
Dido's name is pronounced DYE-doe… Dido is a name from Virgil's Aeneid; she is the founder and queen of Carthage.

RaidSonic Icy Box IB-MP309HW-B HD Network Media Player Review (Page 1)
Windows Media Center never really took off the way Microsoft and the numerous OEMs wanted. The reasons for this are greatly disputed but once Microsoft started down the path of making concessions to cable providers and giving OEMs preferential treatment the DIY crowd pretty much lost interest. At the same time MCE was dying, DVR set top boxes from cable and satellite companies started gaining market share with their ease of use, customer service and on demand features proved to be too much for PC OEMs to overcome.
The cable companies set top boxes did lack one aspect that die hard DIY PC users had already gotten a taste of, freedom. Freedom to listen to internet radio, check email, watch ripped movies from NAS servers, YouTube, MotorTV, CNET TV, Photobucket and countless other online media served up via the touch of the remote. The truth is the old men in suits have no idea what this generation wants because they can't think outside of their profit driven world that is limited to DRM, pay to play, funk infected garbage that bills you by the minute.
The stop gap between cable company tyranny and expensive OEM Windows Media Center PCs is the media player. These devices are small, compact yet powerful enough to play full HD content from across a network or their built in hard drive. Some can double as small NAS server and pull music, movies, pictures and more from multiple computers in your home. For many functions setup is as easy as turning the power button on and selecting what you want to watch. The entertainment is controlled by the simple remote sitting in the palm of your hard, true control, no compromise - satisfaction.
Today we are looking at the Icy Box IB-MP309HW-B Network Media Player, a small device that is stacked with lots of features and the ability to function on your TV or via your web browser.

Hey Bombshells!
Today we have a special treat for you: An exclusive interview with...
...Dawn Richard!
Don't know Dawn? She was of a member of the wildly popular girl group Danity Kane...
About her singular look, Dawn says, "I've always had an edgier style....I tend to go for short, mainly because I'm only 5'3" so I have to make the legs look long!"
"...My favorite color is teal, but I love dark colors like black, grey, and plum. I adore designers like Martin Margiela, Alexander McQueen, Balmain, Chanel, Chloe, and Stella McCartney."
Great taste! Top designers are cool for big events, but what about when you're kicking it with your girls? She says, "The casual kick back look for me is a Martin Margiela 6 tunic with black tights, a boyfriend blazer and my dependable Y-3 boots."
So, you see, we have a certified stylista on our hands! Naturally her fashionable favorites read like a hot list of top designer accessories...
She says, "I never go anywhere without my Louis Vuitton platform shoes from their Fall collection, my Martin Margiela spring '09 sunglasses (they look like ski glasses...they're so Star Trek!), my Tina Turner fringe Louboutin boots (I feel like I wanna go dancing when I wear them!), my Miu Miu gold sandals with crystal nuggets in the heel, my limited edition Chanel round sunglasses, my black classic Christian Louboutins (every girl should have them), my Tory Burch green purse, and my Margiela bottle cap ring and paper clip bracelet."
Style and beauty go hand in hand, so Dawn indulged, "MAC makeup is my survival kit!! I also love Carol's Daughter, their mousse and hair products are so organic and light! And I love Coco Chanel and Pink Sugar..I love smelling like candy..lol!"
We're sure Que likes candy as well, so I had to ask what the lovebirds were doing for V-Day!
She laughs, "We will probably be working, so I don't know yet!" Ok, no dish on the big plans, but she tells the Fashion Bomb that Que has been getting into modeling. "I think he'd make a great D&G model!" Cute.
Dawn had to get back to taping, so to her fans she says, "Thank you for all your support..I hope you continue on this journey with me." And to the fashionistas she offers this advice, "The best style you can have is your own...there is no wrong way...stay creative!"
Check out Dawn's comics at www.danitykanecomics.com and keep an eye peeled for her on MTV and beyond!
*Pssst, if you have any other questions for Dawn, leave a comment! I'll see what I can do to get you an answer:)

Chart-topping star Jessie J has postponed her entire sell-out arena tour because she wants to spend more time recording her album.
The singer, who is also a coach on BBC1's The Voice, had been due to embark on a 17-date series of shows in a little over two months.
But today she told fans she was rescheduling the shows until October of next year because she wanted "more time" to work on her new songs.
Jessie announced the concerts, her first full arena tour of the UK and Ireland, in May and tickets went on sale just days later.
The Brit Award-winning performer has had to pull out of a number of shows previously as a result of health problems. Last year she had to cancel appearances after damaging her ankle during a fall, and this summer she withdrew from concerts after being diagnosed with a "fatigue" virus.
She told fans today: "I am honestly truly sorry but I hope you all can understand that it's just because I would like to take more time to finish my new album.
"I promise to make this tour my biggest and best ever and cannot wait for you all to hear my new songs."
Tickets will be valid for the new shows and the venues remain the same apart from a concert at Glasgow SECC which is going to move to the Hydro Arena.
The tour will begin at Belfast Odyssey Arena on October 15, rather than Nottingham Arena which would have been the first show.

Human trafficking: organized crime and the multibillion dollar sale of people
19 July 2012 - The exploitation of human beings is a highly lucrative business for organized criminal groups. As a new UNODC campaign launched this week highlights, it is an illicit market which affects millions of victims worldwide every year. With traffickers making an estimated $32 billion annually, human trafficking is one of the world's most shameful crimes and one which robs people of their dignity and basic rights.
Developed to raise awareness around transnational organized crime, the campaign highlights some of the key threats being faced today - with human trafficking one of the leading concerns. The campaign, which can be seen on www.unodc.org/toc, includes a new video which is being rolled out online ( www.youtube.com/unodc) and through international broadcasters and illustrates the key financial and social costs of this international issue.
While the best-known form of human trafficking is for the purpose of sexual exploitation, hundreds of thousands of victims are also trafficked for forced labour, domestic servitude, child begging or the removal of their organs. The many different types of human trafficking means that there is no single, typical victim profile. Cases are seen in all parts of the world and victims are targeted irrespective of gender, age or background. Children, for example, might be trafficked from Eastern to Western Europe for the purpose of begging or as pickpockets; while young girls from Africa could be deceived with promises of modelling or au pair jobs only to find themselves trapped in a world of sexual and pornographic exploitation.
A central component of the campaign is driving action against transnational organized crime. It calls not just on Government authorities to act, but also highlights the role of communities and individuals.
Some of the steps that the campaign suggests in tackling human trafficking include:
- Being alert: if you see anything that you think might be related to trafficking, tell the police or telephone your local anti-trafficking helpline, if one is available.
- Being involved: find out what is being done to prevent human trafficking in your community, see what you can do and encourage your friends, family and neighbours to be more aware about human trafficking.
- Being aware: join the UNODC-led Blue Heart Campaign against human trafficking by visiting www.unodc.org/blueheart. Help spread the word through your social media networks or make a donation to the UN Trust Fund for Victims of Human Trafficking.
- Being responsible: make sure that your consumer choices and actions are ethical ones, e.g. choose not to purchase goods and services that could be linked directly or indirectly with sexual exploitation, forced labour or other forms of forced subjugation.
As the guardian of the United Nations Convention on Transnational Organized Crime and the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, supplementing Convention, UNODC has been at the forefront in tackling human trafficking. UNODC offers practical help to Member States, not only by helping to draft laws and create comprehensive national anti-trafficking strategies but also assisting with resources to implement them. At the national level, countries continue to implement the Protocol and work towards integrating anti-human trafficking legislation into their domestic laws.
Towards the end of 2012, UNODC will be publishing a new global report on trafficking in persons. Based on data collected from Member States, the report will provide a basis for evaluating how trends have changed since the last global UNODC data collection exercise in 2009 and will provide guidance as to what remains to be done.
UNODC also manages the United Nations Voluntary Trust Fund for Victims of Human Trafficking (especially women and children). Officially launched in 2010 by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, the Trust Fund supports the provision of on-the-ground humanitarian, legal and financial aid to victims of trafficking and provides members of the public an avenue through which they can donate to this important cause.

Airport Body Scanners Too Revealing
Is the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) looking for hidden weapons or making pornographic movies? After looking at images from the naked body scanners being deployed in U.S. airports nationwide later this summer the answer is not so clear.
What is clear is that these scanners reveal far more than hidden weapons. They reveal every curve, nook and cranny in the human body and throw that image up on a computer screen for a TSA agent to view.
Called millimeter wave scans, the devices are set to replace the traditional metal detectors that passengers must go through to get from the ticketing to the boarding area of the airport.
The technology was first implemented a couple of years ago as a trial in the airport in Phoenix, Ariz. Similar machines were later put into operation in New York and Los Angeles.
When the TSA first began pushing the new technology it did so saying it would be used on a voluntary basis by those who didn't want to have a more invasive physical pat down during a secondary screening.
In other words, those suspicious-looking white-haired grandmothers who didn't want a TSA agent touching and feeling them all over would step into the machine so a TSA agent could instead ogle their image.
But now it's not just the white-haired ladies, it's everyone—children, teenagers, 20-somethings, middle agers and old-timers—going through the image scanners. There remains an option for those too squeamish to have their image made. You can step off to the side and a TSA agent can pat you down.
TSA says that the scanners will blur faces so no one will know whose body is being revealed. And TSA assures you the image is deleted the instant the passenger is cleared through the checkpoint. It also says only male TSA agents will view the males and only female agents will view the females.
Well that's encouraging. We know there's never been a man or woman who got their jollies from looking at naked members of his own sex.
Besides, the idea that the TSA is going to go to the trouble of separating the males and females into special lines once the checkpoints get backed up during peak travel times is unbelievable. And, in a news report demonstrating the working technology at an airport there was but one computer terminal in the room and the female agent was viewing a male scan. Later in the report a male agent was viewing a female image.
While news articles about the technology showed mixed reactions to the scanners by passengers, the very idea that one would have to submit to a virtual strip search just to travel on an airline should throw up all kinds of red flags. Big brother government already has too much data on your finances, medical records and shopping habits. This will give them a digital photo to go with it.
Thankfully the American Civil Liberties Union is considering filing a lawsuit against the TSA. Hopefully they'll follow through.
If not, expect to have to reveal your naked body at every public venue in the near future because, coming soon to a subway station, stadium, concert hall and shopping mall near you, enhanced body scanners for the viewing pleasure of government agents.

If you're dreaming of Super Bowl snacks and dips, have I got a recipe for you. It's Loaded Baked Potato Dip, and it's a winner no matter who's on the field.
From Souffle Bombay this creamy, rich dip will make guests at any party flip. It's filled with all of the things that make a loaded baked potato so mind-blowingly amazing -- sour cream, cheese, chives, and, of course, bacon. There are no potatoes in the dip, but you use potato chips to scoop it up. It's completely addictive and completely incredible.
Loaded Baked Potato Dip
16 ounces of sour cream
4 oz softened cream cheese
1 oz packet of Ranch seasoning
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 jalapeno, minced (I use the whole thing, seeds and all)
6 oz of shredded Cheddar cheese
3/4 pound of bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 TBS snipped chives
In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, cream cheese and ranch seasoning and mix well. Add in black pepper, jalapeno, cheese, bacon and chives, mix until fully combined.
Scrape it into a serving bowl, top with some additional bacon, chives, jalapeno, cheese or whatever you like to decorate it. You can make this up to a day ahead, it holds up well and the flavors deepen.

Nook flop weakens Barnes & Noble sales
Barnes & Noble posted a decline in retail sales in the holiday season as the largest U.S. bookstore chain's efforts to take on Apple's iPad with tablet-style Nooks fell flat with shoppers.
Sales from stores and the website sank 11 percent to $1.2 billion, the New York company said late Thursday. Revenue at the Nook unit, which includes devices, accessories and content, fell 13 percent to $311 million.
Barnes & Noble's Nook division is key to the company's future as it tries to capture consumers switching to reading electronic books. The retailer released two new versions of the Nook tablet for the holidays, around the same time Apple introduced its iPad mini, designed to keep customers from buying low-cost tablets from competitors.
"Success of the iPad mini likely pressured sales of Nook tablets," said David Schick, an analyst at Stifel Financial Corp.
Apple introduced the smaller version of the iPad in October. The device has a 7.9-inch screen diagonally and is priced starting at $329. The 9-inch Nook HD+ went on sale in September for $269. Competition also came from Amazon.com's updated set of Kindle Fires that were announced in September.
Both Amazon and Barnes & Noble have increased access to content beyond digital books and touted specifications such as screen resolution and processing speed as selling points to expand their customer base beyond readers.
'Bleak' outlook
"It's a challenging marketplace for them to compete with the likes of Apple and Amazon," said Michael Souers, an analyst at Standard & Poor's in New York. "It looks pretty bleak, long term."
Barnes & Noble didn't break out results for specific Nook models. Sales of digital content rose 13 percent. They more than doubled during 2011's holiday season and surged 38 percent in the quarter ended Oct. 27.
"Nook device sales got off to a good start over the Black Friday period, but then fell short of expectations for the balance of the holiday," William Lynch, chief executive officer, said in the statement.
Barnes & Noble stock declined 6 percent to $13.35 per share Friday. The shares gained 4.2 percent last year.
The retailer has been investing in the Nook at the expense of profits to gain a piece of the growing market for digital books. The division, which includes a chain of college bookstores, also received investments from Microsoft and Pearson. The investment from Pearson, announced on Dec. 28, values the Nook unit at $1.79 billion, more than twice the market capitalization of the entire company.
Comparable sales
"We are examining the root cause of the December shortfall in sales, and will adjust our strategies accordingly going forward," Lynch said.
Last week, Barnes & Noble said sales for the holiday period were below forecasts. Same-store sales, a key measure of a retailer's growth because new locations are not counted, dropped 8.2 percent, the retailer said.
Barnes & Noble underperformed other retailers, which reported same-store sales Thursday. Revenue by that measure for the more than 20 companies tracked by Retail Metrics rose 4.8 percent last month, excluding drugstores, beating the estimate for a 3.4 percent gain, the firm said. That followed a 1.6 percent gain in November.

Post subject: What's Cookin'?
I started a thread like this at another site and it has been a raging success. That site is NOT known for it's cooks and we've had some pretty interesting recipes; I'd love to know just what type of things an experienced gang like the posters from Chocolate & Zucchini would write.
This threads purpose is a general area to post all the things that you're trying and how they succeeded. Trying out a great new bread recipe and want to share your success? Post it here. Whipped up a souffle that deserved to be photographed? Post about it here. You can also ask if someone's got a recipe for "______". This has led to some great reading and fun times at the other site, so let's see what happens at C & Z.
Ah, the lowly Turnip. If we know anything about it beside its name, its the infamous scene of Scarlet OHara, raised fist against the sunset, yelling I will never go hungry again!
But humans have been eating turnips since pre-history, where cave men ate them raw and, when fire was discovered, ate them roasted. In France, cave paintings show turnips being boiled in clay pots.
Im a sucker for maligned vegetables, especially the forgotten root vegetables like turnips, parsnips and Jerusalem artichoke. Whenever I encounter a recipe for one of them, Ill run to the kitchen to give it a try. And Ive never been disappointed.
Leave it to the Italians to come up with a soup that is simple, easy to prepare, and absolutely extraordinary. Reading the ingredients doesnt give you a clue as to how good this soup tastes; its so good that it can be served to accolades at the most elegant of dinner parties---not just kept for family applause.
Serves 6
3 Tablespoons of Unsalted Butter
1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
1 Pound of turnips, peeled, and cut into ½ inch diced pieces. (I treated these like apples; I cut them into quarters, used a paring knife to peel them, and then diced them. At the market, 3 large turnips = one pound. Just weigh them at the grocery store to get the right amount.)
6 Cups of Chicken Broth, (NOT the no-fat variety!)
½ Cup of Unconverted Long-Grain Rice
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons of minced, fresh Italian Parsley
¾ Cup of Freshly Grated Parmesan (I just buy the pre-grated type, though a high-end brand; I just cant stand to grate cups of parmesan cheese!)
In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the olive oil over high heat. When the foam subsides, sauté the turnips, tossing frequently, for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown.
Add the broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat to moderate, and cook, covered for 10 minutes.
After that, stir in the rice and cook the mixture, covered, until the rice is al dente, about 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Just before serving, stir in the parsley and the Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Interesting that you began with Turnips. That's all that's left in my backyard garden at the moment. I planted them in August, and I've been picking them since October. The back yard is also full of wild onions. I think Alabama as a whole is nearly overrun with wild onions. They make good soup and make a nice smell in the summer when you cut the grass.
I don't really have any wonderful recipes. I'm an intuitive cook and an experimentalist. I usually just evolve my dishes. Currently, it is a combination of oats, corn meal, brown rice, pumpkin, cream cheese, banana, cinnamon, salt, Wheatena, all mixed in a big pot and left to simmer on the stove for about 3 hours. It works for me, though others may find it odd. Also, I eat it directly out of the pot -- adding Smuckers rasberry jam when it gets stiff. Now, who's the one who yesterday said I was "Classy" 'cause I didn't like the waitor reaching across my face to serve my colleague?

Ah-h-h-h, that would be ME,
You can just post exactly how you did, with all your intuitive genius. I'm part C.S.I. Kitchen Unit married to The Mad Scientist in the kitchen. My favourite activity is to experiment, but like C.S.I., every single ingredient that I add, I document. I got burned, recipe-wise, when I'd make stunning recipes by higgle & piggle, and then couldn't duplicate them to save my life. I got pissed at myself for my laziness so now I just have a micro-tape recorder on the counter and talk to it while cooking. Must look strange to anyone peeping in my kitchen
, but then I didn't invite them to peep in the first place!
Just keep posting your whimseys, Sarape.
If you post it, they will cook. (

A great topic, and very interesting responses so far!
I like turnips but I'm a bit burnt out on roasted or mashed, so I'm definitely clipping the soup recipe. Dairy Queen, I can totally relate to not wanting to grate lots of Parmesan, but I heartily recommend perservering (a microplane helps speed it up) because eventually you'll be left with a rind, and it's a GREAT addition to soup. Just keep it tightly wrapped in foil in the fridge until you're ready to make soup, throw it in the pot, and fish it out before serving. You'll be amazed at how much flavor it adds!
As for what's cooking at my place, last night it was Mario Batali's monkfish in almond sauce. You can find the recipe here:
Really, really good. Food TV reviewers complained that when Mario made the dish on his show he stirred the almond sauce into the pan with the fish and the recipe doesn't say to do so. I spooned the almond sauce on top of the fish and then spooned the (very hot) pan sauce on top of that, and was very happy with the results. A bonus: a bit of leftover almond sauce is fabulous in a grilled cheese sandwich!

Well, this is where I'm going to show my ignorance, mangolassi...TWICE!
1) If you put the rind of the parmesan in the soup, can you use it again, like a vanilla bean or is it limited to ONE time only? And it's added for flavour, right?
2) Almond sauce IN a grilled cheese sandwich?! Wow! Grilled cheese is my hands down favourite comfort food. Do you use just standard bread and Cheddar/American cheese and dab some almond sauce inside before grilling? This goes beyond my scope of knowledge!
Here's a recipe that I tried two weekends ago, with raging success.
Seriously, Gang, this went wa-a-a-y beyond my expectations. If you want to make something special for someone, whip this up. I would say that it really feeds TWO, with some leftovers.JThe day that I made this, I had 4 hungry friends. The first frittata was gone in 2 minutes and I had to whip up another one or risk a riot. The second one had one piece remaining, which I microwaved two days later and it was still tasty, if not as airy as the first day.
I thought prosciutto was going to kill my pocket book, but it only cost me $4.75 for enough to make three of these frittatas. The original recipe called for oyster mushrooms, which I used and loved, but they were out of them this weekend, so I'm substituting baby portabellos. I'll see if it makes a difference.
I served this up with home fries and baked grapefruit with brown sugar on top; that whole "sweet and savory" vibe. I hope someone makes this as it's really a tasty meal.
************************************************** ******
Prosciutto and Mushroom Frittata
2 Tablespoons of Butter
1/3 Cup of Thinly sliced Shallots
¼ Cup of Tightly Packed Prosciutto, cut into slivers
Freshly Ground Black Pepper, to taste
2 ounces of Oyster Mushrooms, cut into strips (Basically, half of a 4 ounce box of mushrooms)
6 Large Eggs, beaten to lemon yellow color
¼ Cup of Packed Italian Parsley, chopped
Parmesan Cheese, to top off frittata
1)Preheat the broiler.
2)Melt the butter in a 10 skillet thats oven proof. (I have a heavy cast iron skillet that worked perfectly.) When butter has melted and begins to bubble, stir in the shallots, Prosciutto, and pepper. Cook, over medium-high heat, stirring, until the shallots are golden and the Prosciutto is crisp. Then, stir in the mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes.
3)Lightly beat the eggs with the parsley. Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg/parsley mixture into the skillet. Stir very quickly, incorporating the mushroom mixture with eggs. Cook, covered, just until the bottom is set and the eggs are not runny, 3-5 minutes.
4)Remove the lid and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the entire top. Place the skillet under the broiler and cook just until the frittata is sizzling, puffed and set, about 1-2 minutes.
Serve immediately. 2 portions, with leftovers...maybe.

I love, love, love frittatas. They're a great way to use up leftover bits of vegetables, etc., but definitely worth planning ahead for sometimes.
I too was not sure whether the Parmesan rind would be re-usable or not, but when I fished it out my question was answered it really disintegrated! Definitely good for one time only. It gets very floppy and soggy.
As for the almond sauce in my grilled cheese, I used a creamy-ish white French cheese that I can't remember the name of, sorry. It was quite bland, nothing like brie or camembert, but worked well enough. The almond sauce was really more of a pesto than a sauce, perfect for spreading on sandwiches. (I spread it on the bread before grilling but I wouldn't hesitate to spread it on a plain ol' un-grilled turkey sandwich in place of mayonaisse). Although it's a Batali recipe it's not especially Italian in terms of flavor and I think it would go nicely with just about all types of cheeses. (All the sauce has in it are ground almonds, olive oil, lemon juice + zest, a bit of cayenne and mustard powder, and a tbsp. of grated Parmesan). I think cheddar would be good with it, but then I think cheddar is pretty good with just about anything!

Oh my god, Dairy_Queen! I couldn't wait for the work day to end after reading your recipe. I have a guest in town and, as much as I love to cook, was feeling weary and uninspired. I've never done a frittata before although I know they're easy. That's their real power: very easy, but people are in bliss when they eat them. And you were ever so right about the portions. Two of us didn't finish it off but there's scant leftover.
I sauteed onions and garlic, added some sundried tomatoes (will probably add them a little earlier next time), put a little cream in with the eggs, and added some feta when I mixed everything together.
And the grapefruit was a wonderfully balanced dessert. Tart and sweet and light.
Thank you!

Hooray, Lisa! I'm presenting you with the
Tireless Chef Award!
I'm so glad that my recipe inspired you, and that you and your friend had such a yummy night of it! And I'm glad that the grapefruit worked out so well, too.
Today was Soup Day for me. I made three of them for the remainder of the week. The first is a Chicken-Sweet Potato Soup; the second is a Stilton-Apple Bisque and the last is a Pumpkin-Peanut Butter Soup. I don't know how long your friend is in town, but you might want to try this one. It falls together so fast, it's almost obscene. And the taste: so rich and so good. Very filling. I served it with sauted spinach with garlic oil and an apricot pie.
1/2 stick of Unsalted Butter
4 Cups of Pureed Pumpkin (I just used the canned stuff)
2 Cups of Pureed Sweet Potatoes
1 Cup of Smooth Peanut Butter
6 Cups of Chicken Stock
1 teaspoon of Salt and Pepper
Garnish: Snipped chives and sour cream or plain yogurt
1) Melt butter in a medium-soup pan over medium heat. Stir in the pumpkin, sweet potato, and peanut butter.
2) Add chicken stock, pepper and salt and stir will until smooth. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
3) Before serving, garnish soup with chives and sour cream or yogurt.
Serves 6

I have a simple peanut-butter recipe that I invented during one summer in college when I needed something cool and refreshing.
peanut butter
cottage cheese
Mix all three in a bowl -- it should look like a brown paste. Refrigerate or put in freezer. Serve cold.
I know, not much of a recipe; no skill involved. But, the 3 ingredients do combine to make a very wonderful taste.

Rainey, You are going to
LOVE this recipe. It falls together in minutes, especially if you keep frozen batches of sweet potatoes on hand. I love to make home-made garlic croutons for it, floating them on top with the sour cream and chives; it makes for a very pretty picture.
Regarding the turnip soup recipe I posted; I sure hope someone tries it. I had a dinner party Monday, where one of the friends has
food allergies, making it very hard to have her over in a group situation. I made the soup with NO butter or parmesan cheese and it was STILL a hit! I was expecting leftovers but there wasn't a teaspoon's worth of soup left in the pot.
I'll be making loads of things this weekend for a gaggle of friends coming over so I'll post them here.

I am also going to try combining pumpkin with peanut butter -- both ingredients I've enjoyed but never combined. Maybe a version of my oatmeal with pumpkin and peanut butter for tonight.

Good luck, Sarape; let us know how it turns out!
Tieing into the Frig/Pantry thread, I love squirreling away sale food for later! Although I adore shopping at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods for the cool and exotic, nothing beats our Jewel Food stores for money saving purchasing power.
I haunt the store after each "holiday", because once Easter, Christmas, etc. is over, they reduce all the 'seasonal' things, like pumpking, spices, and other goodies to clear it out. I bought an entire case of Libby's Organic Pumpkin at 50% off; now I have it to use with abandon. Same goes for Sweet Potatoes; I buy about 100 pounds of the little critters after each holiday, do a couple of casual days of rendering them down into pulp, and freeze them into 2 cup lots.
Having recipes like the Pumpkin Peanut Butter Soup is almost too easy when you have things just an arms length away.

I did take Dairy_Queen's suggested pumpkin-peanut-butter soup recipe and modified it to fit my oatmeal recipe. The results were spectacular. The addition of peanut butter to my oatmeal recipe (I had already been using pumpkin) gave it a nice thickness and nutty taste.
So, I'll call it a pumpkin, oatmeal, peanut-butter cereal -- it really is thick like hot cereal and not like a soup.

When it comes to a traditional agency model, RedRover Sales & Marketing is anything but traditional.
Founded seven years ago this month, the firm has added four new hires and three new service lines since last summer, notched impressive year-over-year revenue increases and is almost at capacity with its client roster.
That's why RedRover is projecting four more hires by August when it relocates from its 2,100-square-foot space at 415 S. Front St. to potentially 5,000 square feet elsewhere Downtown.
"It's fun to see because we are just 10 people, we're not a big shop," said CEO and founder Lori Turner-Wilson. "The way the phone has been ringing and the awareness of our brand in the marketplace, you'd think we were a larger firm than we are. One day we'll get there, but we're still boutique, we're still small and nimble, but we create a lot of noise for such a small firm."
The majority of RedRover's growth is due to new clients that have been referred by existing clients, such as Lucite International, Thomas & Betts, Bleu Restaurant & Lounge and Christian Brothers University. That's in addition to RedRover's portfolio of existing clients, which are growing 10 to 20 percent year over year, as well as a pipeline of potential clients.
"As soon as one of them signs, it's going to be a two-month lag time (for our services) probably," said Melissa Thompson, RedRover director of client service. "It's a good challenge to have."
RedRover has also brought in specialists to grow its social media, public relations and international communications elements of its firm over the past year.
Turner-Wilson attributes RedRover's success to its talent-driven business. Whereas a traditional agency may make the majority of its money based on media commissions, RedRover is selling consultancy and experience to mid-sized companies with somewhere between $5 million and $50 million in sales.
"A lot of our clients refer to us as being an expansion of their C-suite," Turner-Wilson said. "They are of the size where they need a seasoned chief marketing officer and a head of their sales division that's a real veteran in the business, but a lot of times they aren't to a point where they can afford to bring in those two six-figure salaries. And so they're hiring us on a fractional, outsourced, part-time basis to fill both of those roles for them.&rdquo ;
RedRover's sales and marketing strategy model allows clients to compete with big national and international companies that have much larger budgets, but at an affordable rate where they can still maintain their margins. RedRover does this by means of its "60-day discovery and plan development period," followed by the execution of that plan if it's cost effective for the client.
To Ty Skinner, recently hired account manager/sales trainer from Colorado, it's about lending "fresh eyes" to a business. A veteran in sales training, she said it "seems silly" that anybody has ever used a different approach.
"It's funny, I've owned a business before myself and you think you know what your issues are internally, what your opportunities and strengths are," Skinner said. "But many times when someone comes in from the outside who knows absolutely nothing about what you do and takes a look at it from a 40-foot-view, it's astounding to me how much difference you see what those wins are."
RedRover's revenue in 2012 was up 90 percent from 2011, and 192 percent compared to 2009. Tracing that growth back even further to before the recession, RedRover in 2012 saw a 971 percent increase from 2007.
Numbers are certainly what RedRover is most proud of and accustomed to. The firm re-launched its website in October, touting its metric-driven formula and growth figures from its client Bleu, which saw a 46 percent increase in six months following a rebranding campaign.
"A traditional ad agency probably has beautiful creative on their site, but we put numbers," Turner-Wilson said. "That's really where the rubber meets the road and that's what the mid-sized companies that we're targeting are really looking for."
To celebrate its seventh year in business, RedRover is holding a seven-year client appreciation bash at Bleu on Thursday, Feb. 28, from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. That "blowout" party will feature live entertainment, food, a video presentation and "some fun surprises," Turner-Wilson said.

Please be aware that this website is not linked to your game (as it would be technicaly impossible to do since your FH3 game doesn't share this kind of information).
Multiple cars:to add more than one for a given car, double click/touch the Key icon.
Detailed car page :Click on a car name to see a more detailed page with car image, car photos from other users. Use ctrl+click on the car name to open it in a new tab/window and keep this list open (this works on any link, on any website, actualy).
What does the DLC icon mean?This car is not present/unlocked in the original standard game, click the icon to find out how to get it (or not...)
A special car is missing:K' is counting unique models only, most cars gifted on special occasions are just special liveries from existing cars.
About power,weight,torque:Due to mathematic conversion, imperial values may differ from original by +/-1.
