Security Experts:

Hackers' Threatened Internet Shutdown Unlikely to Work, Experts Say

A threat to target the Internet’s root Domain Name System (DNS) servers and knock the Internet offline may be more difficult than the hackers think.

Hackers reputedly associated with Anonymous made the threat to launch what they dubbed “Operation Global Blackout” March 31 in response to actions by Wall Street, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and “irresponsible leaders and the beloved bankers who are starving the world for their own selfish needs.”

Knocking the Internet offline however is not easy.

Internet Servers“The root operators are well aware of the threat, and it's nothing new - such attacks have been mounted previously with limited affects,” Rod Rasmussen, president and chief technology officer of security firm IID, told SecurityWeek. “There are many indications that the original Pastebin post was a hoax or "troll" by an individual rather than any collective/consensus operation. Regardless of the authenticity of this specific threat, the root operators are continuously working on mitigating issues, most of which being unintentional, that could potentially impact the core DNS, and doing a pretty good job overall.”

According to the Pastebin post, the group claimed to have compiled a “Reflective DNS Amplification DDoS tool” for the attack based on AntiSec’s DHN tool.

“The principle is simple; a flaw that uses forged UDP packets is to be used to trigger a rush of DNS queries all redirected and reflected to those 13 IPs (of the targeted root DNS servers),” the post notes. “The flaw is as follow; since the UDP protocol allows it, we can change the source IP of the sender to our target, thus spoofing the source of the DNS query.”

Still, Robert Graham, CEO of Errata Security, noted it would be difficult for attackers to take down all of the Internet’s servers for any serious length of time.

“To have a serious shot at taking out all 13, a hacker would have to test out attacks on each one,” he blogged. “But, the owners of the systems would notice the effectiveness of the attacks, and start mitigating them before the coordinate attack against all 13 could be launched.”

“The #Anonymous hackers can [certainly] cause local pockets of disruption, but these disruptions are going to be localized to networks where their attack machines are located, or where their "reflectors" are located,” he continued. “They might affect a few of the root DNS servers, but it's unlikely they could take all of them down, at least for any period of time. On the day of their planned Global Blackout, it's doubtful many people would notice.”

Strength in Numbers, Confluence

Album Review

click to enlarge 250-cd-strengthinnumbers.jpg

(Love For All Music, CD)

When a band releases its first full-length album, it’s typically on the uphill climb. Yet while Strength in Numbers, the Vermont octet of self-proclaimed “hip-poppers,” are rising quickly, they’re hardly at the top of their game. Yet. The traditional move for legitimacy — especially in Burlington’s fertile hip-hop and funk scenes — is to play as if your life depended on hitting it big. The ruse has worked work well for any number of bands in college towns for generations. But on Confluence Strength in Numbers take a more measured approach and prove to be too cool for school.

Confluence employs the same mellow hip-hop presented on last year’s debut EP, Less Is More, though this latest effort lacks that collection’s sense of earthy ire. Also absent is Montréal emcee Dali, leaving Emma Frank as the sole vocalist. What’s left is an octet centered on silky-smooth R&B grooves and exultant horn melodies. These grooves are so smooth, in fact, that you could almost mistake it for elevator jazz — if you were hardly listening.

Much of the album’s sleek tone comes from Frank. When she croons empowering lines such as “I’m not allowed to be hurt by you,” or profundities like “Someday I’ll be a figment of my own imagination,” she hardly sounds empowered or profound, but cool as hell. And it’s a cool she never really loses, even when the rest of the band gloriously goes wild, as on “Why Not.” Frank sings with the collected reserve of someone who has nothing to prove.

The other band members are more apt to let loose, but their compositions are sometimes too tenuously tasteful. When bandleader and rising sax maestro Bryan McNamara takes the rare solo, as on the superb slow jam “Drama Queen,” his notes emerge from his horn as naturally as breathing. Similarly, Bryson Barnes’ trumpet solo on “Born to Be Happy” is nestled back in the mix as if the band didn’t care enough to show it off. Too cool for school, indeed.

“AntiFantasy,” the album’s closer, is where Strength in Numbers indulge the most. Here, McNamara and Barnes don’t question themselves on fluttering melodies. Again, Frank’s airy singing gives the tune a trippy glow. “It’s time to go home,” she repeats over and over at the end of the song, suggesting the band wanted to pace the record like a live set.

But you hardly feel that kind of immediate energy on Confluence. Rather, Strength in Numbers sound self-assured on their sophomore outing. Such nonchalance could be disconcerting to some. But, like a fresh wine, Confluence gets better with age, revealing new layers with each listen and heightening anticipation for an eventual release. And you can rest assured knowing this: All the restraint going on here will surely explode on the stage.

Strength in Numbers play this Thursday at Club Metronome, and Friday at the Localfolk Smokehouse in Waitsfield.

Three officials at an Emeryville laboratory are among 22 suspects charged by federal prosecutors in a nationwide quaalude trafficking ring, authorities said.

Dennis Patrick Fairley, a chemist, is accused of making quaalude pills at CalCoast Labs in Emeryville before distributing them in Manhattan and on Long Island, N.Y., the Drug Enforcement Administration said.

Fairley, 65, of New York, headed a ring that distributed more than 100,000 pills worth more than $3.5 million, the DEA said. Among those helping him was his brother, Thomas Fairley, 50, of Modesto, and Kevin Yan, 54, of San Ramon, authorities said.

The three men are among 22 charged after a three-year investigation dubbed "Operation Lude Behavior." Quaaludes, or methaqualone, are used illegally as a recreational hypnotic drug.

The Emeryville lab was raided Wednesday. The company's Web site says it is an "independent materials testing laboratory" that performs drug analysis.

Dennis Fairley is listed on the Web site as president and lab director. Thomas Fairley is identified as a paint chemist and product paint development section leader. Yan is described as senior scientist.

In a nondescript classroom one block from the San Francisco Hall of Justice, 10 men gathered on a recent night for a parenting class.

They went around the room, sharing the high and low points of their weeks. One man said he was relieved that November - the anniversary of both his brother's and father's deaths - was over. Another was excited and nervous about an upcoming job interview. The group - many of them ex-convicts, all of them there because of past involvement with the criminal justice system - responded with encouragement and support.

The parenting class, run by the nonprofit Community Works and sponsored by the San Francisco Sheriff's Department, is one of a host of programs offered both in San Francisco's jails and in the community to help offenders get their lives back in order. Supporters say that for someone with a criminal history, a program can mean the difference between rehabilitation and returning to jail.

And that's why many nonprofit community organizations around California have been lobbying hard to be included in the pot of money counties are receiving under the state's criminal justice realignment plan, which includes keeping more felons at county lockups instead of shipping them to state prisons.

But how that funding is spent varies by county. Some jurisdictions are spending the bulk of the money on law enforcement, including the hiring of police and probation officers, while others are choosing to invest in nonprofits that offer substance abuse counseling, housing, job training and other services to criminal offenders.

Experts say counties that choose to invest in services are more likely to reduce recidivism - and thus the number of people in the state's crowded jails and prisons.

Studies back that up. A recent report by the Pew Center on the States noted that the "largest reductions in recidivism are realized when evidence-based programs and practices are implemented in prisons and govern the supervision of (offenders) in the community post-release."

One of the participants in the parenting class at the Hall of Justice, a 38-year-old former drug addict, said he is proof that these programs work.

A year ago, he was living in San Francisco County Jail after 10 years of bouncing between sobriety, drug binges and run-ins with the law. Now, he is working full time, getting straight A's at City College and preparing to move back in with his girlfriend and 1-year-old son.

Last week, he graduated from the parenting class.

"I'm doing really well ... and I'm proud of myself for sticking with it," said Scott, who did not want his last name used because he is worried about future employment opportunities. "A lot of people don't know about drug addiction, the things we've been through. They think it doesn't work because statistically, it doesn't always.

"If no one else believes in you, and you don't believe in you, one person, saying, 'I do' - that's really all it takes."

Investing in solutions

Many Bay Area counties have embraced the idea of investing in services, with San Francisco, Alameda and Santa Clara each allocating one-quarter to one-third of their first year realignment budget to nonprofit providers.

"Our belief is that what's really going to help in terms of resolving recidivism and having a higher success rate is getting folks jobs and much-needed services," said Santa Clara Probation Chief Sheila Mitchell, who put 25 percent of the county's $15.4 million into services. "Our funding plan mirrors our philosophy."

Some of the state's largest counties, however, have put just a fraction of their realignment budget into services.

One of those is San Bernardino County, which is second only to Los Angeles County in the number of inmates it sends to state prison every year. County leaders there chose to earmark about $300,000 of their $27.5 million budget to faith- and community-based organizations this year, a move that angered many advocates.

County probation Chief Michelle Scray said she believes community organizations can make the difference between incarceration and a productive, crime-free life for someone with a criminal history.

However, Scray noted that she must ensure the county probation department can handle an additional 2,500 former prison inmates over the next four years. That's in addition to the 19,000 probationers the agency already supervises.

So when San Bernardino County came up with a plan for spending its money, Scray and other county leaders decided to spend the lion's share on hiring probation officers, sheriff's deputies and other law enforcement officials.

Scray said she is training probation officers to do things like teach anger-management classes at one of the three reporting centers the county plans to open. But she said the state needs to give additional money for nongovernment services, which she believes are important.

Ill-equipped for influx

"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results," she said. "California has a 67 percent recidivism rate because we only do things from the law enforcement side and there is no rehabilitation."

Those who run nonprofits and churches say that's exactly why counties should be investing in their services instead of waiting for money that will likely never materialize from the deficit-plagued state.

The Rev. Samuel Casey runs COPE, a network of African American congregations in the Inland Empire. He said San Bernardino County is ill-equipped to handle the thousands of men and women it will be charged with supervising under realignment. County leaders, he said, need to analyze where these offenders will be going, what they need and what resources are available to them - and then, they should invest in those services.

"Part of it is just cultural competency, being able to engage this population. These are some of our brothers, sisters, mothers, grandfathers and uncles coming home," he said. "Probation is not going to have the engagement with these individuals the way everyone thinks. They will barely see them. They barely see the ones that are on probation now."

Community leaders in Sacramento, Los Angeles and elsewhere are also angry and frustrated by the tiny amount those jurisdictions have decided to invest this year in community services.

Daniel Macallair, executive director of the Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice in San Francisco, said the discrepancies between counties mirror what was already happening in each jurisdiction prior to realignment. The center conducts criminal justice research and provides direct services, including a substance abuse program for adults who are released from prison.

'Counties not prepared'

"Most counties are not prepared to meet the challenges of realignment, and for many of them it's their own fault. They have engaged in bad practices and policies for 30 years," he said. "The counties that will have the hardest time are some of the Southern California and Central Valley counties that have relied heavily on the state prison system."

Macallair said probation departments need to change the way they approach their job and rely more on the community.

"What people don't realize is that even though we're the state of California and we have one set of criminal laws, you have 58 counties responsible for interpreting and applying those laws and essentially 58 different criminal justice systems," he said. "You're going to have well functioning counties able to meet this challenge and a lot that are going to lag behind. There's nothing uniform about this."

After much hand wringing and number crunching, the Raiders are expected to leverage their bets and put a costly franchise tag on cornerback Charles Woodson today, rather than let him walk away as a free agent on March 2.

In exchange for that $10.529 million non-exclusive tender -- one that still allows Woodson to negotiate with other teams -- the Raiders likely will actively shop their most expensive player to the highest bidder, NFL sources said late Monday.

A non-exclusive franchise tag guarantees the Raiders the right to match any long-term offers Woodson receives, or, if Woodson leaves, receive first- round draft picks from his new team in 2005 and '06.

Though it's unlikely any team would cough up that kind of compensation, there definitely is interest around the league in Woodson, enough so, that the Raiders strongly believe they could get something for him -- a running back, linebacker or defensive lineman -- on the open market.

"That seems to be the thinking here," said a prominent NFL agent, who has had several clients named as franchise players and asked that his name not be used. "The Raiders obviously feel they should get something in return for him."

If a sign-and-trade doesn't work, the Raiders also could opt to rescind Woodson's franchise tag, particularly if they were in need of salary-cap space. Which -- despite various reports of doom and gloom -- doesn't seem to be a problem at this point.

According to contract numbers obtained by The Chronicle, the Raiders are less than $2 million over the $85.5 million cap. The team continues to comb through its books in advance of next Tuesday's deadline for league-wide compliance with the $85.5 million limit, first identifying contracts that are easily tweaked to buy time.

Among them: Quarterback Kerry Collins, who did not restructure his guaranteed $4.5 million salary for 2005, but agreed to move the date of the guaranteed payment to March 15, rather than the original NFL-imposed deadline in mid-January.

As a result, $3.5 million of Collins' salary now will appear as a roster bonus, which pro-rates to 2006, and Collins' cap value for '05 drops to $1.5 million.

The Raiders, meanwhile, continue to have "positive" negotiations with wide receiver Jerry Porter, a team source said, and hope to convince their leading pass catcher to sign a five-year contract worth more than $20 million before the March 2 start of free agency. The Raiders, sources say, already have accommodated his cap value in their short-term planning.

Though there is nothing the team can do about the "dead money" on its books -- cap values assigned to departed players such as Lincoln Kennedy ($3. 2 million), Tim Brown ($1.33 million), Barret Robbins ($1.25 million) and Rod Woodson ($920,000) -- the Raiders are mulling over several bookkeeping and personnel decisions that should free up plenty of space to accommodate the top 51 salaries on the payroll.

Among those players under scrutiny:

-- Quarterback Rich Gannon. Last season's neck fracture means his playing days are over -- doctors have told Gannon this, and he has come to accept the truth. Though Gannon's $8 million salary is a big hit against the 2005 cap, the Raiders, league sources say, are prepared to give the quarterback all the time he needs to call it quits. A failed physical will allow him to collect additional benefits from the NFL.

In the meantime, the Raiders, sources say, will take Gannon down to the NFL minimum ($755,000, only $455,00 of which counts against the cap) and will postpone any decision on his future until after June 1, when the cap hit from his bonus acceleration (about $5.4 million) moves to the '06 books.

-- Guard Ron Stone. He showed up to training camp with leg and knee problems and never really recovered. Stone started only five. He's due $2.6 million in 2005 and his release triggers a minimal cap hit.

-- Guard Frank Middleton. The outspoken Middleton is a pragmatist and always believes every game is his last for the Raiders. He finally might be on to something. A solid run and pass blocker when healthy, Middleton's recovery from a quadriceps tear makes him a huge risk. Rather than restructure a $3 million base, the Raiders are expected to cut him loose.

-- Defensive tackle Warren Sapp. A huge disappointment in '04, Sapp showed his age (32) and could not adjust to the 3-4 scheme. The self- proclaimed "QB Killa" had half a sack to his credit until Week 15 and finished with 2 1/2 sacks total. He's on the books for $2 million in salary, and assorted roster bonuses could push his '05 total to at least $4 million. But the minimal cap acceleration on his original $4.5 million signing bonus makes his contract easy to cut or restructure.

-- Defensive tackle Ted Washington. He started 16 games in '04, a huge plus for an interior lineman who turns 37 in April. Washington can dominate in a solid front seven, but the team's lack of consistent pass rushers and run stopping linebackers saw him try to do too much at times. His $2 million base makes him a gamble, however, and the Raiders may try to restructure his contract, which includes a relatively minimal roster bonus ($500,000).

-- Defensive tackle John Parrella. A non-starter in '05, Parrella is a classy player but past his prime. The Raiders are expected to cut him and his $3 million salary loose next Tuesday, providing immediate cap relief.

If Tim Pychyl has dedicated his academic career to one principle, it's that procrastination goes way deeper than time management.

In fact, he thinks of it more as a coping mechanism than anything else.

Pychyl is an associate professor of psychology at Carleton University. He's spent more than two decades studying how and why people put off important tasks. Through his research, Pychyl has learned who's most likely to procrastinate, in what contexts, and, most importantly, how to kick the habit for good.

"First, you have to recognize it's about feeling good in the short term," Pychyl tells Business Insider.

Contrary to popular belief, procrastinators aren't simply weak-willed or bad at managing their time. Pychyl's research suggests they actually just want to avoid feeling bad. They don't want to confront the emotions that come with the burdensome task ahead.

"That's the place you have to start conceptually," he says. So if you're facing the prospect of cleaning a messy room or writing a college paper, ask yourself why you don't want to do it right now. Maybe it's the dread of chores or a fear of failure that's keeping you from starting.

But that's the key, he adds. All you need to do is start. Since you can't knock out large tasks all at once, Pychyl says the most helpful way to approach cleaning that room or writing the paper is to determine your first action. Pick up one sock. Open a blank Word document. This makes the task seem more real. When you pin down the first step, you turn a hypothetical chore into a concrete process.

"And when we make an action concrete," Pychyl says, "we believe that action now belongs to the present and has a sense of urgency."

There are times, however, when you realize you've been putting something off but can't work on it immediately. That's dangerous if you're a procrastinator, since "sometime next weekend" can easily become a mantra you repeat for weeks on end. Pychyl says the remedy is simple: Get specific.

Tell yourself, "At 10 a.m. I'll start picking clothes up off the floor," or "I'll begin outlining the paper at 6:30 p.m."

"You set a stimulus for action into the environment," Pychyl says. You make the switch from thinking about your goals to thinking about your plans to make them reality. That small shift lets you wipe out ambiguity about how you'll spend your time.

The final piece of advice Pychyl offers is to recognize that progress fuels well-being.

Even tiny steps build momentum that keeps you engaged in a task, he says. Before you start, there might just be a dirty sock on the floor. But once you commit to an action, that sock becomes a tangible, crucial part of a journey toward a clean room.

Funding bereavement, shining students

March 29, 2012

Running for bereavement and Maple
The Simon Fraser University Hummingbirds will carry the memory of Maple Batalia in their hearts as they run to raise money for the B.C. Victims of Homicide Initiative (BVOH) in Vancouver on June 24. Maple, an SFU student, was tragically shot and killed in Surrey last fall.

Comprised of Brenda Morrison, an SFU assistant professor of criminology, her restorative justice students and people connected to SFU — the Hummingbirds are among several teams raising money for the BVOH in the June 24th Scotiabank Group Charity Challenge.

On Monday, April 2 at 12:30 p.m. in the Saywell Hall atrium at SFU Burnaby, the Hummingbirds will host an awareness-raising event to raise pledges for their summer run. The group hopes to double the $25,000 they raised and quadruple the number of team runners they attracted last year.

Morrison can explain how the Hummingbirds’ efforts last year helped launch the BCVOH. The two eight-week homicide-bereavement support workshops, monthly drop-in groups, conferences and a helpline have benefitted approximately 300 survivors of homicide victims in the last year.

Brenda Morrison, 778.668.1827 (cell), 778.782.7627,, (Bowen Island resident)

SFU science students shine
The prestigious journal Science will highlight, in an upcoming issue, the names of three SFU students who authored two winning posters at the world’s largest science fair in Vancouver.

While biology students Benjamin Sandkam and Corey Watson snagged the title of best poster in the environmental and ecology category, physics student Laleh Samii secured the honour in the physical science category.

Their entries were among 190 posters on display at the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference, which drew thousands of international scientists to the Vancouver Convention Centre in February.

Felix Breden, biology department chair, and Claire Cupples, science faculty dean, can comment on the significance of SFU’s success at such a high profile science gathering. SFU’s two winning posters were among seven entries from the university and 190 submitted by all entrants. “Even given the home court advantage,” says Breden, “it must be incredibly rare that two of the best student posters would come from the same institution.”

Felix Breden, 778.782.5647,
Claire Cupples, 778.782.3771,
Benjamin Sandkam, 778.782.5641,, Burnaby resident. Corey’s and his poster highlighted why guppies have much better colour vision than humans.
Laleh Samii, 778.782.6595,, Burnaby resident. Laleh’s poster showcased her development of experimental and numerical models for designing and constructing nanoscale molecular machines.

While many StarCraft 2 fans are all about the intense, competitive action of multiplayer, there is a single-player campaign that evolves the story of the ongoing conflict between the Terrans, the Protoss, and the Zerg. The newest Heart of the Swarm expansion focuses on Sarah Kerrigan, the former Queen of Blades, and her ongoing hatred of the Terran Dominion leader Arcturus Mengsk. focalbox Although Blizzard's gorgeous cinematics may suggest a compelling narrative for HotS, the story merely functions as adequate filler between missions. Jim Raynor rescued Kerrigan from her Zerg influence at the end of Wings of Liberty, returning her to her human form. Heart of the Swarm picks up the story with Raynor and Kerrigan trying to rekindle their relationship, only to be interrupted by Mengsk's forces, who still want to see the former Terran Ghost dead. Even after the pair are eventually separated, Kerrigan's subsequent inner turmoil and return to run the Zerg seems unduly contrived, and not even up to the slightly-above-average story standard set in Wings of Liberty. There are a few entertaining moments but, in the end, the only reason to care about Kerrigan is because she is one kick-ass general on the battlefield. Only in the finale did the story offer any dynamic tension or meaningful impact. Granted, the story is secondary to gameplay in any RTS, and Heart of the Swarm adds quite a bit to the foundation laid by Wings of Liberty. This time focusing on the Zerg units, early missions give new players the basics on unit functionality and progression and are fairly good at hand-holding you through to victory. Even the evolutionary "missions," which allow you to upgrade your units in a one-off transition, are more tutorials than actual combat excursions. More experienced players may find this tedious, but their inclusion is understandable given the changes and upgrades from WoL. Kerrigan is a playable unit in most of the 20-mission campaign, and her powers can lay waste to pretty much anything she encounters. As you complete missions, she gains levels and abilities, which is a nice addition to the campaign. The lore has always maintained that she was one of the most powerful Zerg ever created, and her new abilities enforce that. Some of the secondary objectives in the missions reward you with additional levels for Kerrigan, but on certain timed missions, it was easy to get distracted from the mission goal with the desire to see her advance.

Kerrigan talks to Abathur when she wants units evolved.

Unfortunately, Kerrigan's overwhelming strength is almost a detriment to the game. Playing on normal difficulty, she rarely needed support units, except in more advanced missions. One of her abilities allows her to heal herself and allies, which let me slice through enemy bases quite easily. Experienced players will want to start on harder difficulties to ramp up the challenge. The AI also struggled with pathfinding in narrow environments, which become common towards the endgame. I'd have Ultralisks stuck behind tiny Roaches in an attack, and they could not find a way to the target. I had to manually direct them around the combat to get to the rear or other targets. Another annoying AI trait was the need to pull units far away from combat if you wanted to withdraw. A few times, I tried to pull Kerrigan back from battle, only to have her turn around and jump back into the fray. She died a few times when I didn't notice she had reentered the fight. That said, the campaign is solid. It took me about 12 hours to complete the game, with only the occasional reload because of a foolish mistake or a poor build strategy. The missions were challenging when I didn't overuse Kerrigan. There is a good variety as well, from timed missions to hero missions (with just Kerrigan or other Zerg leaders). There was even one mission that allowed you to control Raynor's old ship, the Hyperion, offering a nice change of pace from the constant, build-attack-defend style of play. I also found myself replaying missions occasionally just so I could get a few of the achievements I missed the first time around, giving me a chance to try new strategies as well. StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm is a more-than-competent follow-up to Wings of Liberty by introducing new units and an evolution system to the solid RTS basics Blizzard has established. Just don't expect much from the story.
This single-player review of StarCraft 2 was based on a retail version of the game provided by the publisher. A multiplayer review will be coming separately.

Sunglasses Q&A

Oakley Sunglasses For A Square Face

Before buying sunglasses, it is important that you know your face shape. This article will help people who have a square shaped face to pick a perfect pair of sunglasses:

What is a Square Shaped Face?

People with a square faced shape have wide cheekbones, a strong jaw line, and a broad forehead. These people should opt for sunglasses that will give their face a softer look.

Tips for Choosing Sunglasses for Square-Shaped Faces

When picking sunglasses, it is important that you follow a few tips. They are:

  • Pick a pair that will help you in softening the jaw line. Pick round, oval and curved frames, so that they can provide contrast and balance.
  • The frames should be higher on the face, so that it balances the jaw line.
  • Do not opt for boxy frames, as they make a face look more angular.
  • Opt for cat eye sunglasses, as they will complement an angular face.

Frames to Try

  • Try round and oval sunglasses
  • Opt for butterfly shaped sunglasses.
  • Sunglasses with temples that connect at the top of the frame and are set in the centre.

Frames to Avoid

  • Do not buy square or geometric framed sunglasses, as they will emphasize on the angles of the face.
  • Do not buy sunglasses that have accents at the bottom because they will draw attention to your chin area.

It is important that you follow these tips so that your face looks more balanced. Go to to pick the perfect pair for yourself.
Best Sunglasses for Square Shaped Faces

Here are frames that are suitable for people with a square face:

Aviator Sunglasses

Aviator sunglasses are oval shaped, which are the exact opposite of a square. These glasses have a thin metal frame and gained popularity in the 1960s. These sunglasses look very nice on men that have square shaped faces.

Tear shades

These are round shaped glasses, and are commonly known as ‘John Lennon glasses’. They were worn to make a face look more aesthetically pleasing. Some of the people who wore these include:

  • Boy George
  • Jerry Garcia
  • John Lennon
  • Liam Gallagher
  • Mick Jagger
  • Ozzy Osbourne
  • Roger Daltrey

Cat Eye Glasses

These sunglasses are shaped like a cat’s eye, as the name suggests. They have horn rims with flared out edges. They became popular in the 1960s and celebrities like Dinah Manoff, Marilyn Monroe and Barbara Windsor wore them.

Free Piano Sheets of Aerosmith

AerosmithAerosmith is an American hard rock band, sometimes referred to as "The Bad Boys from Boston" The band was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1970. Guitarist Joe Perry and bassist Tom Hamilton, originally in a band together called the Jam Band, met up with singer Steven Tyler, drummer Joey Kramer, and guitarist Ray Tabano, and formed Aerosmith. By 1971, Tabano was replaced by Brad Whitford, and the band began developing a following in Boston.

They were signed to Columbia Records in 1972 and released a string of multi-platinum albums, beginning with their 1973 eponymous debut album. In 1975, the band broke into the mainstream with the album Toys in the Attic, and their 1976 follow-up Rocks cemented their status as hard rock superstars. The band did not fare well between 1980 and 1984, releasing a lone album, Rock in a Hard Place, which only went gold, failing to match the successes of their previous efforts.

Although Perry and Whitford returned in 1984 and the band signed a new deal with Geffen Records, it wasn't until the band sobered up and released 1987's Permanent Vacation that they regained the level of popularity they had experienced in the 1970s. After 38 years of performing, the band continues to tour and record music.

Anna Chlumsky

Veep star Anna Chlumsky, who first rose to fame in 1991 in the film My Girl with Macaulay Culkin, is pregnant with her first child! The 32-year-old actress and her husband Shaun So told People that their baby is due this summer.

“I’m feeling pretty good so far,” she said. “I was really lucky — I did not have any morning sickness which was great because I was working.”

Chlumsky posted this photo on Twitter showing off a glimpse of her baby bump as she posed on a “fashion face off” with designer Christian Siriano.

Chlumsky said she is busy getting ready for her baby!

“I’m being judicious with which books I read because I don’t want to get overwhelmed,“ she said. “Most of the books have to do with how to have a worry-free pregnancy and keep the anxiety down.”

Don’t let holiday traffic detour your turkey day

Sunday, November 20, 2016

WSDOT has helpfully provided this comprehensive list of tips for travel during Thanksgiving.

With family gatherings, football – and turkey! – highways can get stuffed with traffic during Thanksgiving weekend.

For trips as sweet as pumpkin pie, drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and take advantage of Washington State Department of Transportation’s travel tools.

Tips for stress-free holiday travel include:
  1. Consult WSDOT’s travel times charts, which use historical information to help drivers know before they go.
  2. Check out online tools, including mobile apps, traffic cameras and email alerts.
  3. Visit our online traveler information about traffic, weather and ferry schedules.
  4. Follow WSDOT’s social media accounts, such as Twitter and Facebook.
  5. Pre-program 530 AM and 1610 AM to vehicle radios for highway advisory radio alerts.
  6. Carry chains and other winter driving essentials.
  7. Check current chain and traction requirements on the WSDOT passes website or by calling 5-1-1, and watch for highway advisory signs.
  8. Leave extra time for holiday and winter travel, slow down and drive appropriately for conditions.
Apple Cup travel

Those traveling to the Friday, November 25, Apple Cup football game in Pullman should also plan ahead for possible winter weather on passes and allow extra travel time to ensure they arrive before the 12:30pm kickoff.

Mountain passes

In the mountains, State Route 123 Cayuse Pass (elevation 4,675 feet), State Route 20 North Cascades Highway (elevation 5,477 feet) and Chinook Pass (elevation 5,430 feet) remain open as of November 17, but the status can change quickly. On Snoqualmie Pass (elevation 3,022), a new service will send text alerts for pass delays 30 minutes or longer – text “wsdot snoqualmie” to 468311 to subscribe, and “wsdot stop” to unsubscribe.

In the Puget Sound, the State Route 520 bridge will have weekend toll rates on Thanksgiving, November 24, returning to weekday rates on Friday, November 25. On the Interstate 405 express toll lanes, travel is free to all on the Thanksgiving holiday, returning to normal toll and HOV requirements from 5am to 7pm on Friday. Weekends are always free to travel in the lanes.

Other travel alternatives: Trains and boats and planes ... and ferries ... and busses

Travelers planning a trip by ferry, train, personal aircraft or bus also should make plans to avoid holiday delays:
  1. Those traveling by ferry should plan ahead for heavy holiday ferry traffic and consider purchasing tickets online to save time. The longest lines are expected westbound Wednesday afternoon and evening, November 23, and eastbound Friday morning, November 25. Reservations are recommended on the San Juan and Port Townsend / Coupeville routes. Some ferry routes run on Saturday schedules on the holiday, check the Washington State Ferries website or call 888-808-7977 for details.
  2. Train travelers should note WSDOT added two Amtrak Cascades trains for runs on Wednesday, November 23, and Sunday, November 27, to the existing Thanksgiving schedule between Seattle and Portland. All Amtrak Cascades trains require reservations and Thanksgiving sells out quickly. More details are available here  or by phone at 800–USA–RAIL
  3. Aviators can find information about state-operated airports here  or calling 800-552-0666.
  4. Transit riders should check with their local agency for any holiday schedule or service changes, including some Dial-A-Ride and fixed-route service that may not run on holidays.

Short Film Profile

Copyright © 2010 Epoh Beech

The Marriage of the Thames and the Rhine

The historical and geographical relationship between Germany and England and the Thames and the Rhine rivers, through the eyes of a time traveling seal, called Hermes, and Pegasus the mythological horse.

Film notes

Epoh Beech’s hand drawn animation is a re-imagining of Francis Beaumont’s 17th Century tome The Masque of the Inner Temple and Gray’s Inn “The Marriage of the Thames and the Rhine” This Jacobean ‘masque’ was performed at Whitehall Palace in 1613, forming an integral part of the nuptials of Elizabeth, the daughter of King James I to Frederick V. The pairing was a metaphorical marriage of Germany with England, and a symbolic union of the Thames and the Rhine.
The animation is an investigation into the historic relationship between the
Rhine and the Thames. Central characters in the narrative are Hermes, in the
form of a seal, and Pegasus the mythological horse, both bearing witness to the voyage of the imagination, unhindered by the straightjacket of history and time. Pegasus not only represents justice and wisdom, but also acts as a muse to the Poets.
The animation has a dual meaning; it is both symbolic meditation on a journey into the unknown through the eyes of Pegasus and the seal, both on a quest to heal old wounds and create a sense of unity in their universe; and also an exploration of the geographical history of the Thames and Rhine, which at the end of the last ice age (10,00 years ago) formed one single river

The first on-line academic publication dedicated to examining and expanding feminine leadership worldwide is scheduled to debut on March 25.

The website, Advancing Women In Leadership, will offer a professional, refereed electronic journal providing scholarly insight, perspectives and advice for aspiring women.

The forum will be co-edited by Genevieve Brown, left, and Beverly J. Irby, right, professors of educational leadership at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas. It will be linked with Advancing Women, an international on-line network for women in the workplace published by Gretchen Glasscock.

"Our mission is to provide a forum for accomplished women to share with an international audience their experiences or research on women's and girl's issues," Irby said. "The articles published in the journal will report, synthesize, review or analyze scholarly inquiry and issues important to women and girls."

Authors represented in the journal will include women from business, arts, economics, engineering, medicine, education and other professional areas. Following a refereed format, all journal submissions will be evaluated by an editorial review board composed of scholars representing a variety of professions. Only articles demonstrating scholarship, relevancy and currency will appear in the journal, Irby explained.

"The ultimate goal of Advancing Women in Leadership," Brown said, "is to expand the global support network for women in leadership positions. The Internet, with a reach transcending national and cultural barriers, offers an exceptional medium for this groundbreaking endeavor."

The March 25 journal debut coincides with the annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in Chicago.

"AERA is the premiere association for educational researchers internationally," Irby explained. " Because our new academic journal focuses on the advancement and education of women, the Chicago meeting offers an excellent opportunity for launching our inaugural issue."

The first issue of Advancing Women in Leadership will feature eight papers exploring a variety of educational issues:

The journal's creators plan to post three editions on the Internet each year. The website, Glasscock said, will be accessible, for free, to anyone with basic web-browsing software.

"Advancing Women in Leadership is an historic landmark in serious communication," said Irby. "We hope to tap into and share the education, talent, abilities and determination of women everywhere."

Gymnastics 2013 national championship in Hartford

USA Gymnastics says it will hold its 2013 national championships in Hartford, the second time the city has been picked to host the event in three years.

Connecticut Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and USA Gymnastics president Steve Penny scheduled a news conference for Tuesday morning at the city's sports arena, the XL Center, to discuss the details.

The 2010 championships drew more than 40,000 people to the city over four days. The men's and women's championships were held at the 15,000-seat XL Center, while the rhythmic, acrobatic and trampoline and tumbling competition took place at the 3,500-seat Chase Arena at the University of Hartford.

Organizers say next summer's competition, scheduled to take place Aug. 14-17, will include events at the XL Center and the Connecticut Convention Center.

Fast Breaks: Cavs-Wizards, Game 2

Fast Breaks: Cavaliers-Wizards
By Marty Burns
Game 2 Leaders
Cavs lead series 2-0 PointsReboundsAssists
116 86
James, Ilgauskas
• Is Gilbert Arenas (right) hurting the Wizards?

It seems a fair question to ask after his dreadful Game 2 performance helped set the tone for Washington en route to an embarrassing blowout loss.

Arenas had just seven points (on 2-of-10 shooting) to go with three assists and three turnovers in 24 minutes. Perhaps still bothered by his knee and wrist injuries, he showed no explosiveness while misfiring badly on several shot attempts. He also picked up some dumb fouls.

But the real problem was that he continued to play as if he was The Man. He took a bunch of bad shots early that seemed to suck the life out of his teammates.

During the 69 games Arenas sat out to rehab his knee, the Wizards learned to play together as a team. Antonio Daniels spread the ball around, and guys like Andray Blatche, Roger Mason and Nick Young chipped in off the bench. Now, with Arenas back, it's like they're all standing around in a fog waiting for Agent Zero to take over.

Arenas is a good player. His heart might be in the right place. But somebody needs to tell Arenas that he's not helping his team if he's injured and not able to play to his level. After all, the Wizards were a pretty good team without him this season.

• The Cavs continued to show that size does matter. Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Ben Wallace, Anderson Varejao and Joe Smith are causing Washington all sorts of problems with their length around the basket. Cleveland is getting tons of second-chance opportunities, and the Wizards can't seem to get anything inside. Washington is helping them out, too, by settling for too many outside shots.

Brendan Haywood deserved to get tossed for that flagrant foul on LeBron James, but he does not deserve any further punishment. If Haywood does get suspended for Game 3, however, the Wizards will really be in trouble. They don't have any true big men other than Blatche, and he seems to be too young to understand that this isn't the regular season anymore.

DeShawn Stevenson's little finger-licking display after hitting a rare three-pointer in the third quarter was pathetic. Apparently it didn't matter to the eight-year veteran guard that his Wizards were getting blown out by 16 points at the time. Plus, Stevenson is the last guy who should be showboating since he has done nothing offensively in the first two games -- or over the past two seasons against Cleveland.

Pat Riley continues to toe the thin line between winning and misery

Pat Riley regrets letting Dwyane Wade leave the Heat
1:14 | NBA
Pat Riley regrets letting Dwyane Wade leave the Heat
Tuesday July 26th, 2016

Your teams on the go or at home. Personalize SI with our new App. Install on iOS or Android.

It’s been a long summer for Pat Riley.

Between the Heat’s public divorce with Dwyane Wade, their organizational struggle with Chris Bosh and the ongoing attempts to field a competitive roster—which culminated in the signing of Dion Waiters on a team–friendly deal Monday—the NBA’s master planner has been more reactive than active this off-season.

It was Riley who set himself up for high expectations this summer, when he told reporters at his end-of-the-year press conference that June and July would be fun and fruitful. Instead, they were hurtful and barren.

Wade fled to Chicago, at least momentarily fracturing the goodwill of a fan base that worships Riley. Who was right? Wade was understandably insulted Miami never made him a top priority after 13 years with the franchise. But Riley also offered the 34-year-old guard more than $40 million.

And what about Bosh? The Heat’s big man wants to play, but the organization is uncomfortable watching him take the court while still on blood thinners. Bosh is trying to convince the Heat to let him play under a new medication that would exit his system before games, while the team is reluctant to entertain such dangerous scenarios—all while Bosh’s massive salary cap hold hangs in the balance.

• Roundtable: Where should the NBA play the 2017 All-Star Game?

How did Riley, whose hair seemingly hasn’t moved out of place since 1980s and who can’t break a sweat in an Armani suit under the South Florida sun, find himself so frazzled amid so much chaos? (And if you think Riley isn’t in a weird emotional state, you only need to read his text to Dan Le Batard after losing Dwyane Wade.)

It looks like Riley’s all-or-nothing attitude has finally caught up to him.

Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images

It’s heresy (and hurtful) as a South Florida expat to suggest Riley’s mastermind ability is slightly overrated, but that’s exactly what I’m about to do. Riley swung a trade for Shaq, but within three seasons had a largely dysfunctional roster. Riley signed LeBron, but is it Wade who deserves credit for luring James to Miami? And while Riley held out for James, he largely wasted arguably the two best years of Wade’s career. And since James has left, so too has Wade and any immediate hopes of challenging in the East.

The thing is, any move Riley makes can immediately be couched in what makes his cult so powerful: a chance at a bigger move in the future.

• Open Floor: Goodbye NBA Summer League, hello Team USA season

That’s really the only way to describe the Heat’s off-season this year, it’s all about creating a chance at a bigger move in the future. Miami’s rash of recent signings—Luke Babbitt, James Johnson, Willie Reed, Wayne Ellington, Waiters—were all about maintaining cap flexibility in 2017, when Russell Westbrook, Blake Griffin and other big names will likely be free agents.

Miami can create a significant amount of cap space next summer if they trade Goran Dragic, and will have a Micky Arison-yachtload of room if Bosh doesn’t play again. You can 1,000% believe Riley has already begun going through these machinations, plotting a big splash that could be the final masterstroke for the 71-year-old.

There is certainly nothing wrong with playing for the home run, unless you’re doing it like Sam Hinkie. But it’s that catch-a-whale mentality that ultimately led Riley to lose Wade, refusing to offer the franchise’s most beloved athlete a third year so he could keep cap flexibility.

• Riley, Heat finally forced to figure out life without Dwyane Wade

Of course, Riley’s had plans before, many of which were blown up when LeBron decided to leave in 2014, leaving the Heat grasping. The Heat are in the unique position of having experienced the best and worst sides of NBA’s players-wielding-power era.

But these are the stakes when championships are the singular focus, as they are for Riley. When you hit, the NBA Finals are coming through Miami every year and your city becomes the center of the basketball universe. When you miss, James Johnson and Derrick Williams are battling for starting forward spots while Udonis Haslem will be expected to look after your max-contract center.

There’s winning and then there’s misery. That’s one of Riley’s core philosophical tenets. This summer has been miserable for Riley, and so will this upcoming season. But if there’s winning at the end of the tunnel—perhaps a couple more stars really do decide to team up in Miami next summer—it will have all been worth it. Again.

Ticketing app Gametime raises $20 million in Series B round of funding

Friday September 23rd, 2016

Read about the latest sports tech news, innovations, ideas and products that impact players, fans and the sports industry at SportTechie.com.

Gametime announced a Series B round of funding totaling $20 million on Wednesday.

New investors to the last-minute ticketing app included GV (formerly Google Ventures), Evolution Media Partners and the Stanford StartX Fund. Existing investors Accel, San Francisco Giants co-owner Jeff Mallet and sports agent Casey Wasserman also participated in the round.

“We believe living in the moment makes all the difference,” Brad Griffith, CEO and Founder of Gametime, said in a statement. “Our last-minute marketplace represents the antidote to the cumbersome buy-months-ahead experience. We simply offer a much different experience than buying ahead.

“Millennials, specifically, love that they can buy in two taps, especially when they’re mobilizing friends just minutes before start time. This funding will help us continue on our steep trajectory, as we pioneer the last minute into the next big category in our industry.”

According to Gametime, which launched its iOS app in 2013, 80 percent of its transactions take place within seven days of an event, with 50 percent of those coming on the day of the event.

Since it raised a Series A round last May, Gametime has doubled its staff to 70 employees and provided tickets to over 1,400 sports teams, concerts and other live events in 50-plus markets across the United States and Canada, including Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Dallas and Las Vegas. Additionally, app installations have increased 500 percent over the same time period. It is projecting 250 percent year-over-year growth in 2016.
