TrustNet Scanning and Certificate Collection

Who We Are

Venafi is the cybersecurity market leader in machine identity protection, securing all machine-to-machine connections and communications. Venafi protects all machine identity types by orchestrating cryptographic keys and digital certificates for SSL/TLS, IoT, mobile, code-signing, and SSH. Venafi constantly assesses which keys and certificates are trusted, protects those that should be trusted, and fixes or blocks those that are not. We hope you agree that maintaining secure communications for your organization is of paramount importance, and we are glad you sought more information on how Venafi is working to protect organizations like yours.

Why You Are Here

You have probably been directed to this page because one of your endpoints was contacted by the Venafi TrustNet global certificate reputation service we maintain to help ensure electronic communications remain secure for every organization that puts their trust in the global public key infrastructure (PKI) model. To that end, the certificate reputation service makes non-invasive HTTPS connections to every public IP address on the internet to build a global certificate repository that we make available to the public. Note: the metadata we collect on certificates through the reputation service is public information that does not include sensitive or private data of the certificate owner.

Why We Are Doing It

We are providing a public certificate reputation service. The system of trust for privacy in electronic communications is based on a proven model of the effective exchange digital certificates, and we, along with our research and industry partners have seen a growing trend of criminal activity around stolen certificates to undermine this global system of trust. Because certificates are used to authenticate users, systems, and devices with each other and to encrypt communications between them, cybercriminals are getting increasingly clever at stealing them to impersonate users and devices. Managing an updated repository of public certificates across the globe and scoring their “trustworthiness” is how we help maintain the integrity of the global system of trust we all rely on for secure communications. Our aim is to create the world’s largest public certificate repository, so organizations like yours have a resource available to help determine which credentials should be trusted and which should not.

Our Sources for Collecting Public Certificates

In addition to populating our certificate reputation service with publicly-available certificates from most endpoint devices connected to the internet, we also collect certificates from publicly available resources, such as the University of Michigan, Google CT, and Project Sonar at Rapid7 Labs. This helps in achieving our objectives of establishing the most accurate and updated global repository of public certificates in use today.

How You Can Benefit from the Certificate Reputation Service

You can benefit in two ways. First, you can integrate the Venafi TrustNet certificate reputation service with your own application through an API we make available to the service to query the score of your public certificates. If you are interested in a sample query, please contact us at [email protected] You can also benefit from the service by deploying a web security appliance that uses the certificate reputation service feed to block employee access to websites created with suspicious certificates that might not be trustworthy. If you would like more information on the benefits of the Venafi TrustNet certificate reputation service, please visit us at We hope this information has been helpful in educating you about the importance of maintaining the global integrity of the digital certificates we all use to secure electronic communications across the internet and the certificate reputation service we maintain at Venafi. If you have additional questions or do not want your server to be included in the certificate reputation service, please contact us at [email protected]

A Musical Roadway

Hear the William Tell Overture on a stretch of road in Lancaster, Calif.

Hiyo Silver highway
Photo caption
Your car's wheels play a little ditty on the Hiyo Silver Highway.

Lancaster, Calif., has given new meaning to the term road music. The desert city's musical road-way—the first of its kind in North America—plays a 20-second snippet of the William Tell Overture as cars zip over it. The sound generator, first put in for a Honda auto commercial, is a pattern of crosswise grooves cut into a stretch of pavement by a company that grinds diversion channels in roadways to aid rainfall runoff.

At one point the strips were paved over after neighbors complained of noise and motorists making U-turns to replay the tune—think of the Lone Ranger's theme. On occasion drivers even backed up at speed over the grooves. "It was just a matter of time before someone got hurt," says R. Rex Parris, Lancaster's mayor.

But the musical road's demise sparked an even more vociferous outcry, so the city of 145,000 spent some $28,000 to reinstall it in a nonresidential area. The westbound left lane of West Avenue G between 32nd and 40th streets now plays the tune for motorists, its pitch and rhythm sounding best when a midsize sedan drives over it at or near the speed limit.

San Francisco's Baker Beach tops many beach lovers' lists.

There's a lot to love where the sand meets the water. We asked about your most treasured beaches, and you raved about these favorites.

AGATE BEACH AT PATRICK'S POINT STATE PARK Trinidad, Calif. "A beautiful trail and staircase lead down to the southern end of the beach," write Marie Carbone and Steve Bage of Sausalito, Calif. "Before you know it, yours are the only footprints; ocean is on your left, cliffs—and lots of empty sand—are on your right." (707) 677-3570,

BAKER BEACH San Francisco. "Right outside the Golden Gate, this has been my family's choice since 1897, when my grandparents arrived from France," says Janine Duchein Sprout of Markleeville, Calif. "It's the scene of many family picnics in the dunes, watching sunsets, the bridge, and the Marin Headlands." (415) 561-4374,

BANDON BEACH Bandon, Ore. "This beautiful sandy beach with its bird-covered sea stacks and famous rock faces is part of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge," says Ed Riche of Boise, Idaho. "A paradise in summer—and in winter for storm watchers—this place captures my heart and soul." (541) 347-9616,

CANNON BEACH Cannon Beach, Ore. "This great nine-mile stretch of sand is enjoyed by kite flyers, sand-castle builders, and walkers," says Marilyn McLaughlin of Salinas, Calif. "Haystack Rock there rises 235 feet from the sea." (503) 436-2623,

CAPITOLA CITY BEACH Capitola, Calif. "It's 15 minutes from the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, 45 minutes north of Monterey, and a few miles from wonderful surfing," writes Mary Gallagher of Danville, Calif. "A sheltered bay, it has lifeguards and a pier for strolling and fishing." (831) 475-6522,

CARMEL RIVER STATE BEACH Carmel, Calif. "At the mouth of the Carmel River is a huge lagoon and a major birding area," says Alice Englander of Carmel-by-the-Sea. "We see Canada geese, pelicans, killdeers, and sanderlings. We often arrive for sunrise over the Santa Lucia Mountains." (831) 624-4909,

CORONADO BEACH Coronado, Calif. "Miles of white sand, surf, and solitude make it a beachcomber's paradise," says Patricia Kabrich of Las Vegas. "The dazzling, historic Hotel del Coronado nearby reminds you of times when living was easy." (619) 437-8788,

NEVADA BEACH Round Hill Village, Nev. "The beach has to be at least a mile long and the only time it seems crowded is the Fourth of July," says Sarah Binks of South Lake Tahoe, Calif. "It's a great place to sit and enjoy the beauty of the Sierra Nevada." (530) 543-2600, ltbmu/recreation/camping/nvbeach.shtml.

In the way that you stick you hand into your jeans pockets and find an unexpected high denomination bill neatly folded-up, we find that VMware has announced entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Wanova and in turn integrate their Mirage desktop management product into VMware’s End-User Computing (EUC) portfolio.

This  acquisition does indeed represent a very exciting and strategic addition for VMware.  The combination of VMware View and Wanova Mirage will be an an industry first pairing that could well dramatically redefine the VDI market: and first because there are no other products that operate like Mirage. It is increasingly common to find vendors acknowledging that a VDI-only solution is not enough. Citrix know it. Desktone  know it. Quest know it. Virtual Bridges know it. We’ve critiqued before that by having a VDI only view, VMware doesn’t “get” desktops. With their Wanova acquisition VMware is no longer restricted to only delivering centrally hosted virtual desktops.

What is it that Wanova’s Mirage can offer, and how does Mirage differ from other solutions?

What is Wanova’s Mirage?

Scott Davis describes Wanova Mirage as “an innovative image replication and layering technology that combines sophisticated, layered image management with client-side execution and persistent caching. It was designed to centralize the management of desktop images in the data center and to deliver those images efficiently to physical Windows systems for a native user experience, as well as to virtual machines for execution“.

And we’d agree. We’ve spoken before about how Mirage can extend to the enterprise and took an in-depth look at what made Mirage tick.

Wanova’s approach to desktop virtualization differs from solutions such as View, XenDesktop or vWorkspace where desktop workloads run in the data center. This is a application, data and OS management platform. More significantly it also differs from other desktop virtualization solutions,  such as Citrix XenClient Enterprise, or MokaFive in that it does not depend on a client hypervisor for its operation.

Wanova’s approach can help deliver a range of scenarios to give the best possible user experience depending on what the user needs. Importantly, it gives a centrally managed option to allow users to continue to run the desktop workload on the endpoint while at the same time using desktop virtualization techniques to maintain a copy of the endpoint desktop within the data-center for management, backup, and disaster recovery purposes.

How Will it Fit to VMware’s EUC model?

We’ve considered before VMware’s acquisitions for VDI. With RTO for example, we asked does VDI need user virtualization or does user virtualization need VDI? In that, we highlighted the compelling feature of Mirage’s solution in that it worked across platforms: it wasn’t just for VDI but for traditional PCs/laptops and could help bring mix in BYOD with both on- and off-line options.

VMware now have an underlying technology that can provide efficient image diversity and management to VMware View and VMware View Composer. The layered image management is highly complementary to VMware View Composer provisioning and runtime storage technology by enabling comprehensive personalization with user-installed and departmental application layers coupled to a common base image.

wanova mirage vmware view and fusion 300x184
A considerable issue for VDI transformations is “what to do about the off-line use cases”. VMware need no longer ignore that, or pass it off as inconsequential. With Mirage, it is possible to enable seamless two-way replication of managed Windows images, applications and persona between the data center and physical laptops, as well as delivering them for execution as VMs on Windows, Mac with VMware Fusion and Linux. The automatic replication and synchronization is well suited to this use case and makes VMware View completely compatible with off-line execution for roaming laptops and tethered desktops where WAN connectivity (or lack of it) makes using a remoted desktop impractical or even impossible.

And at a more traditional level, VMware can now broadens their EUC offering to bringing operational and centralized management benefits associated with centrally hosted desktops to distributed devices such as laptops and physical systems. This means both native user experience through local execution and disconnected access. The benefits include push-button image restore/recompose with user state preservation, desktop DR, far more reliable patch management and a variety of migration use cases. With Wanova Mirage functionality, VMware can now enable very sophisticated migration scenarios; including efficient automated zero touch mass migrations from Windows XP to Windows 7 and hardware upgrades or refreshes.

Is it the PC or VDI that is Dead?

Over time, applications will entirely and only exist as web applications. That time is not now. To transition to that environment will need a range of tools. Relying solely and only on VDI just does not cut it. Does not cut it because it can be expensive to initiate a VDI project. Does not cut it because it is not an all encompassing solution, either because the workload needs a dedicated resource, or the worker needs an off-line device, or the remote bandwidth isn’t available to support a good user experience. VMware needed to enhance their EUC platform – because more complete solutions from competitors such as Citrix and Quest offer a wider range of services.  With the Wanova acquisition they’ve done just that.

Still announcements “to acquire” is a future tense. RTO’s profile optimisation solution took far too long to deliver. This is a technology that should be delivered sooner rather than later – if only because it can offer partners and customers a centrally hosted platform that can be tool to help Windows7/Windows8 migrations without the complexity of a full VDI solution.  More importantly, it allows VMware beyond the traditional devices – laptops, PCs, thin-clients to continue to develop their own strategy to counter other end user device strategies such as Citrix’s Project Avalon.

newest oldest most voted
Andrew, thanks for another well written review. It’s interesting to read the blog on regarding the acquisition, and the following comments. Especially those from Scott Davis, VMware CTO of EUC, and the response to his comments from Simon Crosby. It highlights a significant issue with solutions such as Wanova and Moka Five (both very good technologies as I understand). They are, at their core Windows deployment solutions, and able to deliver a Windows desktop to a Mac. However, they have no ability to manage the underlying Mac platform. As Simon Crosby points out, this is a risky strategy. So,… Read more »

February 15, 2018 Dear Villa Community, In the wake of the Florida shooting yesterday, I am asking all of us to pray. No student, teacher, parent, or person should have to go to school/work and worry that something like yesterday could happen. Feelings of concern, sadness, grief, worry, and frustration are obvious emotions for any parent or educator. We want to take this opportunity to assure all of our Villa families of the processes and protocols we have in place to maintain a secure environment and to ensure the safety and well-being of our students and staff at Villa Joseph Marie High School. These include: - Updated safety response manuals and emergency procedures that are regularly reviewed by local safety experts and law enforcement - All administration, faculty, and staff trained in our various situation protocols (fire drills, shelter in place, lockdown/active shooter, and relocation) - Throughout all buildings on campus, designated administrators and staff who are responsible for upholding the proper protocol during an emergency procedure - Secure entryways with buzzer systems - All doors alarmed throughout campus - Security cameras throughout campus, with updated software as of Fall 2017 - Security resource officer (a Northampton Twp. police officer) visible on campus weekly, and on call as needed - Clearance and background checks for all volunteers - Semiannual meetings with local township law enforcement and emergency personnel - Secured technology to contact emergency personnel as needed - Administration attends offsite emergency training We want to be sensitive to the concerns these tragic events can cause, and continue to stress that your daughter's safety is our utmost priority. Please know that our guidance counselors and additional outside resources, if needed, are available to our students to help them cope with any distress or anxiety they may be feeling. If you have any questions and concerns about our policies, please don't hesitate to contact us. Continued prayers to all, Thomas Kardish, President Lauren Carr, Principal

Thomas A. Kardish, President of Villa Joseph Marie High School, has announced that the school has been awarded a Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP) grant by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Governor Tom Wolf authorized the release of $500,000 to fund the installation of educational spaces in the adjacent St. Joseph's Hall, which formerly housed a nursing home. The grant marks the largest single monetary award ever received by Villa in its 85-year history. St. Joseph's Hall has been gradually developed for classroom use since the St. Joseph Home for the Aged closed in 2002. Roughly two-thirds of the building is already in use, with the most recent expansion completed in December 2017. Villa's enrollment has increased by 6% over the past five years (since the 2012-2013 school year) and is projected to grow in the 2019-2020 school year. The new classrooms and collaborative maker space will provide not only more physical capacity for faculty and students, but also more opportunities for students to develop 21st-century skills. Mr. Kardish remarked, "We are in a wonderful position of experiencing an increase in enrollment at Villa, which has allowed us to plan enhancements that support our students' growth. Specifically, we are adding 21st-century learning spaces with an emphasis on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, math) education. As the only Catholic all-girls high school in Bucks County, our unique mission is to provide an enriching environment in which every girl can find out who God calls her to be. These improvements will go a long way toward helping us fulfill that mission." Lauren Carr, Principal of Villa Joseph Marie and an alumna of the Class of 2000, added, "The new classrooms being created will have an enormous impact on meeting the needs of our students and teachers. Creating additional learning environments will enable our students to have flexible learning space. Teachers will have updated technology to utilize. It truly is a blessing to be able to have the space to grow and expand our curriculum, as well as our extracurriculars." Mr. Kardish and Mrs. Carr expressed their gratitude to the state legislators who helped steer the grant request through the complex legislative process—State Senator Tommy Tomlinson (PA-6th Dist), State Senator Charles McIlhinney (PA-10th Dist), State Representative Scott Petri (PA-178th Dist), and State Representative Martina White '06 (PA-170th Dist), a Villa alumna of the Class of 2006. RACP funding is intended to provide economic stimulus to the Pennsylvania economy and to assist in the immediate creation of quality, family-sustaining jobs for Pennsylvanians. The school is currently reviewing bids from local contractors for the completion of the work.

A reason explains why you do something. The reason you go to school is to learn things (and because it's the law).

Reason usually has to do with thought and logic, as opposed to emotion. If people think you show good reason, or are reasonable, it means you think things through. If people think you have a good reason for doing something, it means you have a motive that makes sense. Reason can also be a verb. You might reason something out, which means that you look at all sides of the issue and then and decide what to do.

Looking for someone who's a little nuts to throw Every Single Day for two weeks, 7am-815 or so Andy Livingstone. Alternating kung fu, zen, and maybe some othermore left-side balancing routine.

interested. but time doesn't work for me. just curious, are you preparing for something?

What's a better time? (I'd prefer to have one consistent time b/c otherwise scheduling becomes a chore.)

Short answer no, just trying to see if a really intense "boot camp" will produce more consistent throwing. Longer answer, maybe considering trying out for something.

I'm interested. When would you start?

Flexible but soon - within the next couple of weeks. Are you able to make the time and place?

I'm actually out of town for the next two weeks (going to the worst city with the worst people). Also, next time, remind me to google field locations before responding to posts.

Aboard, Pavement Sign and Forecourt Sign Printing

Printing for A-Boards, Pavement Signs and Forecourt Signs can be undertaken by W&Co in various ways depending on the type of sign, the longevity required, the quality and the quantity needed.

All the A-boards offered come with a snap open aluminium frame with a clear protection panel which lend themselves to having a printed poster to fit inside. If the A-board is to be used inside then any simple inkjet printed paper poster will suffice. If the A-board is to be used outside, which they often are, then the poster should be printed onto weather resistant media and either be UV sealed or be printed with inks which are both UV resistant and water resistant.

Prices for our standard inkjet poster prints:

Poster Size Dimensions (mm) Print Price
A2 420 594 £28.89
A1 594 841 £32.78
A0 841 1189 £40.58
20" x 30" 508 762 £31.03

The same printing processes for the A-boards are applicable to the Pavement Signs and Forecourt Signs with the aluminium snap frame system. However, the signs without the snap frame system will usually have the graphics printed either onto a self-adhesive vinyl and applied to the sign or printed 'direct to media,' meaning directly to the metal sign itself.

As well as printing, A-board graphics can be produced using self-adhesive cut vinyl; this is mainly used for simple lettering or basic designs.

The digital artwork can be graphic designed by W&Co or printed directly from a print ready digital file. Any graphics printed by W&Co can be fitted into the sign free of charge.

Data Science Seminar with Steve Snow - Event

9th of October, 2017  @  14:00 - 15:00
EEE Building (32) - Room 3077
View on map

Event details

Data Science Seminar by Steve Snow in B32-3077

TITLE: Joining the dots: Connecting the social determinants and physiological effects of air quality in offices

Feeling drowsy at work? Despite findings that poor indoor air quality causes cognitive performance decline, the average office-worker has no access to information on the quality of air in the room until it becomes poor enough to cause discomfort. In this talk, I discuss our user-centred research from the REFRESH project, which joins the dots between the individual and social factors that affect perception of IAQ, and the human physiological responses to changes in air quality. This involves (1) physiological measurement such as (EEG) to detect the effect of air quality on drowsiness, (2) qualitative methods to understanding the social factors which influence air quality in offices, and (3) designing ambient technology which visualises CO2 of an office- an indicator of indoor air quality.

At the end of the talk you will have some actions for how you can detect- and do something about- the air quality of your office; how easily you can incorporate qualitative methods into your research and use technology to understand your users’ needs.

The Senate Budget Committee moved yesterday to head off possible use of an early revenue windfall from tax-overhaul legislation to help meet fiscal 1987 deficit targets under the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings budget-control act.

Alarmed that revenue gains in fiscal 1986 and 1987 would be exceeded by bigger losses in fiscal 1988 and 1989, the panel warned that deep cuts would be required in defense and domestic spending to meet the budget targets in the latter two years unless the revenue fluctuations are leveled out.

To avoid this, the committee agreed to try to craft a leveling-out arrangement with the Senate Finance Committee, which drafted the tax measure.

The Budget Committee did not specify how the problem would be solved, although Chairman Pete V. Domenici (R-N.M.) said that "at a minimum" it would preclude use of the initial windfall, estimated at $7 billion for this year and $23 billion for next year, to help meet deficit targets.

Senate Majority Leader Robert J. Dole (R-Kan.) had suggested using the windfall to avoid tax increases proposed earlier by the Senate over Reagan administration opposition, but the idea was opposed by Domenici and House Budget Committee Chairman William H. Gray III (D-Pa.) and drew criticism from the White House.

One option for handling the fluctuation problem, several senators said, would be to set aside the early windfall to offset later losses. Senators emphasized the changes could be made either on the Senate floor or in a subsequent conference with the House, which has approved tax legislation with less extreme revenue fluctuations.

The Senate panel's action came as President Reagan, in a meeting with Republican congressional leaders, reasserted his opposition to both defense spending cutbacks and tax increases while urging prompt action on a congressional budget compromise for next year, according to participants.

In a separate message, Reagan renewed his request for full funding of major weaponry initiatives, including his Strategic Defense Initiative -- or "Star Wars" missile defense program, 50 more MX missiles, a new small intercontinential ballistic missile, the Stealth bomber, Trident II submarines and improvements in command, control and communications systems.

He claimed that "every dollar taken from our strategic programs is a victory for potential aggressors" and a blow to arms control prospects. "We can strengthen the hand of our negotiators in Geneva to achieve deep, equitable and verifiable reductions or, by unilaterally reducing our forces, we can make a mockery of the only process that leads us toward meaningful arms control," he told Congress, which is showing signs of restiveness over his announcement last week that the United States will no longer be bound by conditions of the unratified SALT II treaty.

Weaponry programs are especially vulnerable to reductions by Congress this year as both houses appear determined to cut back severely the rate of growth in the military budget. Reagan proposed $320 billion in defense spending authority for next year, which the Senate would reduce to $301 billion and the House to $285 billion. Differences have yet to be worked out in a House-Senate conference on the fiscal 1986 budget, which resumed yesterday and passed a few minor nondefense compromises.

The Senate Budget Committee's action on the tax problem followed testimony by Congressional Budget Office Director Rudolph Penner that Congress would miss its fiscal 1988 deficit target of $108 billion by $38.6 billion if the Finance bill became law without a tax increase.

The Senate measure, like the House-approved tax bill, is expected to raise about as much money as the current tax code over five years. The problem is that, after a windfall in the first two years, it is expected to produce a revenue loss of roughly $21 billion in each of the two following years before leveling off and moving toward a surplus.

"It's supposed to be revenue-neutral. It's more like revenue-neurotic," said Sen. Lawton Chiles (D-Fla.), ranking Democrat on the budget panel.

The proposed accord on the revenue issue was included in a budget waiver needed for consideration of the tax bill since it changes revenue and spending estimates in the congressional budget for this year.

For months, polls have shown Rep. Jay Inslee (D) trailing Attorney General Rob McKenna (R) in Washington state’s gubernatorial race.

While one recent survey shows a tie, we’re talking about a state that went for President Obama in 2008 by 17 points. While Obama likely won’t do as well this fall, no one on either side expects the president to have a tough race here. Washington hasn’t elected a Republican governor since 1981.

Gov. Chris Gregoire (D) is retiring after two terms. Could McKenna make history?

“He’s not somebody you can demonize,” said Connie Partoyan, the former chief of staff to Rep. Cathy Mc Morris Rodgers (R-Wash.). “He’s worked hard for the state. He’s a smart individual. He’s established himself very well in the state.”

Inslee’s team argues that Inslee’s biggest problem is name recognition. Neither candidate is on the air yet. Once the campaign heats up, they argue, voters will turn towards Inslee.

“It's not surprising that someone who has held statewide office twice is better known than his Democratic opponent and benefitting from that in early public polls,” said Democratic Governors Association spokesman Mark Giangreco.

To that end, some have argued that Inslee should retire from the House to focus on the campaign instead of trying to win the state while working 3,000 miles away.

But McKenna and his supporters point out his substantial lead with independents, even in the Public Policy Polling survey that showed the two tied and about even in name recognition.

McKenna emphasizes job creation and education — where he actually wants to increase funding, not cut it. He says he’s “talking about the right issues.”

Democrats want to talk about some other stuff. Gregoire recently signed gay marriage into law in the state; McKenna opposes gay marriage (but supports civil unions). He’s part of a lawsuit to repeal the Affordable Care Act and he’s challenging a court decision on logging road pollution.

McKenna argues that a ballot referendum on the gay marriage law will be “a wash,” because it will motivate voters on both sides. On regulation and workers’ rights, he avoids the confrontational rhetoric employed by some Republican governors and instead talks about compromise and technical solutions.

In the Boeing labor dispute that became a presidential campaign issue, for example, McKenna said he “would have remained steadfastly neutral,” and gave credit to the local Machinists union for working with the company.

He compared himself to New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez (R), another Republican in a Democratic-leaning state. “I’m a pragmatist,” he said. “I’m not interested in starting a war” with unions or anyone else. He decided not to endorse in the presidential race.

McKenna points out that he won in 2008 with 59 percent of the vote, despite the Obama wave. But he faced a little-known opponent in John Ladenburg. (“I’ve never even heard of the guy, and I vote here,” said Democratic strategist Frank Greer).

Polls suggest that both sides are getting their message out. Voters like McKenna on managing the state budget, Inslee on social issues and the environment.

In an election year dominated by economic issues, that tilt would appear to give McKenna a bit of an edge. But Inslee has been pushing his job creation plan hard. He says he can campaign and do his job in D.C. at the same time.

If he succeeds, Inslee too will be making history. A sitting member of Congress hasn’t become governor of Washington since 1944.

The Minnesota police officer who fatally shot Philando Castile during a traffic stop was acquitted on all charges by a jury on June 16, nearly a year after his death. (Victoria Walker/The Washington Post)

The Minnesota police officer who fatally shot Philando Castile during a traffic stop was acquitted on all charges by a jury Friday, a decision that came nearly a year after the encounter was partially streamed online to a rapt nation in the midst of a painful reckoning over shootings by law enforcement.

Officer Jeronimo Yanez pulled Castile’s car over in Falcon Heights, a suburb near Minneapolis and St. Paul, and the officer later said he thought Castile matched the description of a suspect in a robbery. The stop quickly escalated.

Yanez fired into the car, saying later he thought Castile was going for his gun, a claim Castile’s girlfriend, sitting in the seat next to him, disputed. She began streaming the aftermath of the shooting on Facebook Live.

Police officers are seldom charged for fatal on-duty shootings and convictions are even less common. Castile’s death came at a time of intense scrutiny of fatal police-involved shootings, and the viral video of his final moments spurred heated demonstrations that continued for weeks.

Outside the court, where a small group of protesters gathered Friday afternoon, Castile’s relatives denounced the jury’s decision. Castile’s mother called his death a murder and tied the verdict to what she described as systemic racism in Minnesota.

“The system continues to fail black people, and it will continue to fail you all,” Valerie Castile said, her anger building. “My son loved this city and this city killed my son. And the murderer gets away. Are you kidding me right now?”

Prosecutors charged Yanez with second-degree manslaughter in November, a felony, saying that “no reasonable officer” would have used deadly force in the same situation. He also was charged with two felony counts for intentionally discharging the gun. Jurors began deliberating Monday, and the verdict was announced Friday afternoon.

Gov. Mark Dayton (D) said the state continues to grieve with Castile’s family, calling his death “a terrible tragedy, with devastating consequences for everyone involved.”

On Friday evening, several hundred protesters amassed around the steps of the state Capitol in St. Paul to decry the verdict.

One protester, local activist Vanessa Taylor, said the verdict confirmed her worst fears about the legal system.

“Philando was everything that people say you’re supposed to be,” Taylor said. “He had a job, he was in a relationship, he helped take care of a child, he worked with kids — but none of that actually means anything or matters.”

Many activists later moved to Interstate 94, one of the main highways in the Twin Cities area. A few dozen people briefly moved onto the road itself while facing police in riot gear, but most of the protesters soon dispersed.

Police said about 500 protesters had gathered on the interstate late Friday, closing it to traffic. The Minnesota State Patrol said demonstrators would be arrested if they did not leave the interstate, and early Saturday, the agency said 18 protesters had been arrested.

Among the onlookers on the side of the highway was Melissa York, a St. Paul resident who was accompanied by her son and daughter. York compared Castile to Tamir Rice in Cleveland and Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., both of whom were fatally shot by police officers.

“My son here is soon to be 14, and he could very well be a victim like Tamir Rice or Mike Brown or all those other people,” York said as she watched protesters march down the highway. “It’s very important that he know what’s happening. I want him to be aware of what’s happening to our people in today’s society.”

Officials in St. Anthony, Minn., where Yanez worked as a police officer, said he will not return to the police department from leave after the trial. They said they have decided “the public will be best served if Officer Yanez is no longer a police officer in our city.”

“The city intends to offer Officer Yanez a voluntary separation agreement to help him transition to another career other than being a St. Anthony officer,” the city said in a statement. “The terms of this agreement will be negotiated in the near future, so details are not available at this time. In the meantime, Officer Yanez will not return to active duty.”

Earl Gray, an attorney for Yanez, praised the jury’s decision. “The verdict was a correct verdict,” he said, speaking to reporters after he left the courthouse. “In my opinion, the case should’ve never been charged.”

Federal officials were assessing the verdict Friday, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota. That office had dispatched a career prosecutor to assist with the state’s case.

“We determined that this course of action was the strongest available avenue for a prosecution, given the higher level of intent required under the applicable federal criminal civil rights law,” the office said in a statement. “In the wake of today’s verdict, we are assessing whether any additional federal review is justified.”

During the trial, jurors heard testimony from dozens of witnesses, including Yanez, who cried on the stand while saying he did not want to shoot Castile. Yanez testified that he thought his life was in danger at the time, and attorneys for Yanez have argued that Castile caused his own death because of his actions during the traffic stop.

Castile was one of 963 people who police officers fatally shot last year, according to a Washington Post database tracking such shootings. The fatal encounter in Minnesota was among the most high-profile last year because Diamond Reynolds, Castile’s girlfriend, broadcast the moments after Castile’s shooting online, graphic footage that quickly circulated and drew international attention to the Twin Cities suburbs.

The shooting, on July 6, 2016, became part of an ongoing debate about how law enforcement officers use deadly force, particularly toward black men and boys, and it occurred during a particularly frenzied period that also saw a controversial police shooting in Baton Rouge and an ambush that killed five police officers in Dallas.

In Minnesota, Reynolds calmly documented what happened after Yanez shot Castile, 32, a popular cafeteria worker at a local school. She explained into her phone that Castile was licensed to carry a firearm, and that he had told the officer that before reaching for his wallet.

According to a complaint filed in Minnesota state court, police car audio and video recordings show that the gunfire erupted just a minute after Castile stopped his car.

Yanez approached the car window and asked Castile for his license and proof of insurance, which the driver handed over, the complaint states. Castile also told Yanez he had a firearm on him, and seconds later, the officer told the driver not to pull out the gun. Castile said he was not taking out the gun, which Reynolds echoed. Yanez screamed, “Don’t pull it out!” and pulled his own gun out, firing seven shots at Castile, the complaint states.

The complaint then shifts to quoting from Reynolds’s Facebook video, saying that the footage “begins immediately after the shooting and while Yanez had his gun drawn and pointed toward the mortally wounded Castile.” Reynolds says in the footage that Castile was trying to get his ID out before the officer opened fire.

“Stay with me,” she said. She added: “They just killed my boyfriend.”

When Yanez spoke to state investigators a day after the shooting, he told them he was “in fear for my life and my partner’s life.” Yanez told them that he thought Castile was reaching for the gun.

“I thought I was gonna die,” he told investigators, according to the complaint.

Yanez and his partner, Officer Joseph Kauser, worked for the police force in St. Anthony, another city in the area. They were both considered model students before receiving their degrees in law enforcement in 2010. Both officers were put on leave after the shooting. Authorities did not charge Kauser, saying that he did not touch or remove his gun during the shooting.

During the trial, Kauser defended Yanez, his former partner.

“I think he followed protocol,” testified Kauser, who has since switched departments, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. “I trust him as a partner, and he did what he’s supposed to do in that situation.”

Prosecutors also charged Yanez with endangering the lives of Reynolds and her 4-year-old daughter, who was also riding in the car. On Friday, Reynolds said she was “incredibly disappointed” with the verdict, saying that Castile cooperated and was stopped only because “he had a wide nose and looked like a suspect” to Yanez.

“It is a sad state of affairs when this type of criminal conduct is condoned simply because Yanez is a policeman,” she said in a statement released by her attorneys. “God help America.”

Jason Sole, president of the Minneapolis NAACP, called the outcome “more of the same.”

“How are you going to kill this guy and still say we have a fair system? How? Man, this behavior has gotta stop, and they can’t stop so they are going to continue to kill us,” Sole said outside the courthouse. “We haven’t progressed. … If you can kill me, with a baby in the back seat of a car, and get away with it, not guilty of any wrong doing? I can’t honor that system, and I won’t.”

John J. Choi, the Ramsey County attorney who brought the charges last year, said he is disappointed with the outcome, but he called on people who protest to do so peacefully.

“I can’t even imagine what this must feel like for the family of Philando Castile, his friends and all those that loved him,” Choi said. “And also for Diamond Reynolds. I’m just really sad for them.”

When he announced the charges last year, Choi said that “no reasonable officer … would have used deadly force under these circumstances.”

Speaking on Friday after the verdict was announced, Choi said he believes Yanez is a good person who made a mistake. But he maintained that nothing Castile did justified his death.

“The toughest part for me … is that he was so respectful in how he disclosed that he had that firearm,” Choi said. “He said sir, I have to tell you, I do have a firearm on me. He went beyond what the law requires. He was compliant. He wasn’t resisting.”

According to the complaint, one of Yanez’s bullets went through the driver’s seat and hit the back seat. Reynolds’s daughter was sitting in a car seat on the other side of the car. Another bullet hit the armrest between Castile and Reynolds, the complaint stated.

Yanez pulled over Castile after seeing him driving and saying he looked like a suspect in a convenience store robbery that had occurred days earlier. Authorities later said Castile was not a suspect in that robbery.

In a statement Friday, the St. Paul Public Schools system said they continued “to remember and mourn the loss of ‘Mr. Phil,’ ” calling him a beloved employee.

Castile was killed during an intense three-day eruption of violence last summer. A day earlier, an officer in Baton Rouge shot and killed Alton Sterling, another encounter captured on a video that quickly went viral. Castile’s death, like Sterling’s, set off protests across the country.

At one of these protests taking place a day after Castile was shot, a lone attacker in Dallas opened fire on police officers, killing five and wounding several others in the deadliest single day for law enforcement since the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. The attacker in Dallas told police he was angered by the shootings of Castile and Sterling, authorities said.

Yanez was the first officer in Minnesota charged for an on-duty shooting since at least 2005, according to Philip M. Stinson, a criminologist at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, who studies arrests of officers and has kept data since that year. The Star Tribune newspaper reported that Yanez is believed to be the first officer charged with killing a civilian in the state’s modern history.

After the Castile verdict came out, Stinson said that of the 82 nonfederal law enforcement officers charged with murder or manslaughter for a fatal on-duty shooting, about a third — 29 officers — were convicted of a crime.

Most of those 29 officers who were found guilty on any count were convicted of a lesser offense, he said. Five of the 29 officers found guilty on at least one count were convicted of murder. Including Yanez, 33 officers were not convicted; Yanez is the 17th officer acquitted after a jury trial. Another 20 criminal cases are still pending, Stinson said.

Earlier this week, one of those cases — the trial of former Milwaukee police officer charged with homicide for a fatal shooting last year that set off violent unrest there — began unfolding in court.

Convictions in such cases are even rarer than prosecutions. In Baltimore, six police officers were charged in the 2015 death of Freddie Gray, but after three officers were found not guilty in separate trials, prosecutors last summer dropped charges against the remaining officers still facing trial.

Mistrials were declared last year in two other trials centered on high-profile police shootings that, like Castile’s death, followed traffic stops and included recordings that were widely shared.

In South Carolina, jurors deadlocked in the case of Michael Slager, a former police officer who fatally shot Walter Scott, a fleeing driver in North Charleston. State prosecutors had vowed to try him again, but Slager pleaded guilty to a federal civil rights charge this year, resolving both cases.

Jurors in Ohio also deadlocked during the first prosecution of Raymond Tensing, a former University of Cincinnati officer who shot Samuel DuBose during an off-campus stop. Prosecutors sought another trial, which began earlier this month.

Jared Goyette in St. Paul contributed to this story, which was first published June 16 and has been updated with new information.

- The Washington Times - Friday, December 25, 2009

When I was a kid back in 1963, I saw this Erector-set gizmo advertised on my family’s 12-inch black-and-white TV and knew that without a doubt, this was the greatest toy in the world.

I had to have it for Christmas. Not only could you use the set to build the Amazing Giant Walking Robot as advertised on TV, you could then build other things with it: cranes, levers, pulleys - it would just keep building and building. As a kid, I envisioned years of endless, boredom-free play with the Erector set Santa would bring.

Well, Christmas morning came, and lo and behold, Santa had brought me the set. (Kudos to my father, the engineer, for putting this under the tree. I’m sure he already was figuring out how he was going to pay for me to attend the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.)

Despite my enthusiasm for this coolest of gifts, I quickly found it had limits. If you forgot a screw here, lost a nut there, misplaced a string or a pulley, or if the little girders weren’t firmly grounded, well, let’s sum it up by saying things just wouldn’t go the way I planned. The instructions were not much help, either. Basically, they read something like this: “Take these things out of the box, put them together however you want, and watch it work.”

I soon found many of my friends were feeling the same frustration, and the story could have ended there. But instead, something else happened. Almost in unison, my friends and I discovered the boxes the Erector sets had come in.

Now here was a venue for boundless curiosity and creativity. There were big boxes with the Stars and Stripes on ‘em. There were boxes inside boxes; there were separators and dividers. Suddenly, the boxes could become anything we chose to think they were - spaceships, forts, aircraft carriers, hot rods - limited only by what we knew and could imagine.

The Erector set had lured us with the promise that we could achieve engineering marvels, but in turning to the boxes, we reaffirmed our creativity, individuality, even our humanity - and built stronger friendships as we had more fun together. Whether that also was the spark of some realization that I probably should not become an engineer, who knows? However, as a neuroscientist (by way of the City University of New York and Johns Hopkins University - sorry, MIT), I like what that experience says about the human brain - and I see parallels between it and what’s going on in my field today.

Like the Erector set for the Amazing Giant Walking Robot, technological developments in neuroscience dazzle us with the possibility that we can create something new in the image of ourselves. A whole new field, dubbed neurotechnology, allows us to see into the living human brain, create human-machine interfaces and even could enable us to build new organisms that could function like a neurological system.

These new organisms might be able to walk and talk. They could be part human and part machine. At first blush, this is way cool - and for a neuroscientist, it’s like being a kid all over again.

Maybe this Christmas, my friends and I ask Santa for a new kind of Erector set, a neurotechnology set, to build a 21st-century version of the giant walking robot. This one not only will move, but will talk, see and hear. And why stop there? With this new neurotechnology kit, we’ll make it feel.

Imagine an Erector set that can build a neuro-cybernetic embellishment of me or my friends, that can feel happy (after all, it’s the holidays) or sad (after all, it’s the holidays) or have expectations and frustrations (ditto about the holidays). What could be better than that?

But wait. Forget a screw here, lose a nut there, misplace a string or a pulley, and maybe once again, things just wouldn’t go the way we planned. As with the Erector set, too, guidance from “instructions” will have limits. We might be able to build an erecto-brain, but we could be on our own if it starts to develop a mind.

So, before we convince ourselves that we must build things with brains, maybe we should take a closer look at the “boxes” our own brains and minds come in. The beauty and joy of the human brain is that it doesn’t come with instructions: How we use it defines our individuality and humanity in much the same way that playing with those boxes did when my friends and I were kids.

What’s more, as we learn about our brains, we grasp more about the enormity of what we don’t know and may never know about our minds. And, no, this is not a Luddite argument but rather a plea to go forward in the march toward technological progress with an appreciation of what it means to be human and a decision to value that above all else.

So, what did we learn from that holiday long ago? I hear that some of my friends, ticked off with the limits of the Erector set, have gone into pharmaceutical development. (I think one of them was instrumental in developing Viagra.) As for me, it confirmed - despite my stumbles - the start of a lifelong love affair with science, technology and, most important, human potential. It’s a journey that has taken many turns but began under that Christmas tree. Thanks, Dad.

Home Luxury Holidays 48 hours in Seminyak

48 hours in Seminyak

written by Webjet Australia May 28, 2014

If you’re heading to Seminyak, Bali, this season with only a handful of days up your sleeve, you can still get a taste of what this vibrant area has to offer. Here’s our guide on things to see and do:

Relaxing welcome

Head to the ever popular Body Works Spa for a relaxing spa treatment that will leave you serene and supple. The spa offers an extensive spa menu and treatments ranging from massages, body scrubs to hair treatments and facials. The most luxurious treatment on the menu includes an ancient Balinese technique called Mandi Lulur, which involves a traditional Balinese massage followed by a fragrant body scrub made out of cinnamon, turmeric, sandalwood and rice. While you are being pampered, enjoy one of the many freshly made fruit juices that the spa offers on its drinks menu.

If you feel like exploring some cultural sights, visit some of the temples in the region. Two of the more famous ones are Pura Petitenget, located right by Seminyak beach, and the Tanah Lot Temple, approximately a 40 minutes drive from Seminyak. The former is a cultural landmark that has seen centuries pass since it was built in the 11th century. Here’s a hot tip: Don’t forget to bring a sarong when visiting the temple to wear around your waist, and go just before sunset for postcard perfect views.

Continue your day of luxury at the restaurant Mejekawi and enjoy the food creations of top chefs Phillip Davenport, Ben Cross and Will Goldfarb. The restaurant is renowned for its unusual pairing of ingredients and transforming them into truly unique dishes that are sure to ignite your taste buds. While you dine enjoy the gorgeous views of the beachfront and watch the famous Bali sunset.

Adventure activities

If you’re looking for adventure after your day of rest and recuperation, we have the just the right thing for you. Start your day with a good breakfast at one of the many cafe’s in the area. For a great coffee or a range of exotic and fresh juices head to the Sisterfields or Sea Circus.

After a hearty breakfast, make your way to Echo Beach. This area has become increasingly popular with surfers and swimmers alike. You can sunbathe or walk along the coast, but for a more memorable experience, get a surf lesson and take to the waves.

If surfing isn’t for you, head on over to Seminyak Beach and participate in a guided horse back ride down the velvety sand for a truly unique experience and some fun holiday snaps.

Shopping sensations

After your time in the surf, dry yourself off and wander down to Seminyak Square. The heart of the city is bustling with colourful shops and street vendors. Browse through the stylish boutiques for fashionable clothing to add to your wardrobe or pick out some unique souvenirs. Don’t miss out on the open-air market on the ground level and make sure to stop by Vinoti Living which sells beautiful homewares that would make perfect gifts for your loved ones back home.

Night delights

When the sun sets, head over to one of the many restaurants to nourish yourself. Warung Sobat will give you an authentic Balinese experience. The place is family owned and offers classic Indonesian food that’s perfect to enjoy during a casual dinner.

Have a breather after a busy day and enjoy the delectable cuisine and ambiance. After you’ve had your last mouthful of dessert and that last sip of your cocktail, head on over to one of Seminyak’s many bars to continue your night.

WooBar is a popular haunt for people who want a chic, modern environment and world class musical delights. DJs and musicians as well as other performers show off their talents for your entertainment. Enjoy the beats from one of the beanbags or sun beds, or get up and hit the dance floor.

When you arrive in Seminyak, you might be overwhelmed with all of the things there are to see and do. Keep it simple, give yourself some down time, and you will still be able to get the best of what this great area has to offer.

WALLA WALLA, Wash.-- Whitman College has been awarded a $300,000 grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation of New York to support and enhance the college's environmental studies programs.

"This generous gift from the Mellon Foundation will allow us to strengthen our current Environmental Studies program while developing an innovative off-campus Semester in the West program," said Whitman president Tom Cronin.

Whitman developed one of the first programs in environmental studies among liberal arts colleges in 1972 and has seen enormous growth in the program in the past decade, said Cronin. This spring the college graduated 27 environmental studies majors, as compared to just two environmental studies graduates in 1992. "The college is committed to developing Environmental Studies as one of its signature programs because our geographic location is ideal for the study of environmental issues, including salmon depletion, toxic waste disposal, wilderness protection and rural economic development, and because the vast majority of students who choose to study at Whitman are keenly interested in issues of environmental economics and sciences," said Cronin.

"We greatly appreciate the support of the Mellon Foundation," said Cronin. "With this gift the foundation supports our commitment to take our environmental studies program from the realm of a very good program to a great program."

One of the steps the college is taking is adding a humanities component to the environmental studies curriculum, already strong in the sciences and social sciences. The college has dedicated the Arnold Endowment funds to bring environmentalist, writer and publisher Don Snow to campus for the 2001-2002 academic year as the Arnold Professor of Environmental Studies. Snow will teach courses in environmental literature and writing. Support from the Mellon grant will enable to college to fund similar courses for three additional years, giving the college time to staff this element of the program on a full- time basis. The college has also added a class in environmental thinking in the philosophy department.

The Semester in the West program is still in the planning stages but will be rigorous, integrative, and reflective of Whitman's liberal arts approach. The program would enable 15 to 20 students to travel throughout the Interior West to investigate a variety of environmental issues. The college will launch the Semester in the West during the fall of 2002.
