Fast Track to Fittest

This time, it is YOUR time! This is the year you made the choice to commit to a healthier lifestyle and this is also the year that you WILL stick to it. While you may have made this commitment to yourself in the past, all other attempts may have failed you. In many cases these attempts to get fit never fully worked because you had no game plan to help you reach your goal. For others, you may have woke up one morning and said, “Today, I will make a change to be more fit”. While stating your goals is always great (since you have made a conscious decision that you want to make a change), without having a plan of action or tools to help you along the way, you ultimately are setting yourself up for failure.

Become The Best Version Of Yourself…

Fitness MotivationThis is where Celsius and I step in. Over the next several months, Celsius and I will be providing you with nutrition, training and fitness tips that will help you become the best version of yourself. Making a lifestyle change is not an easy task, I know from my own personal experience and that is why I want to share my tips and tricks that will help you get started on your journey to a happier, healthier and more fit YOU.But let’s face it, even when we try to be dedicated and disciplined, life get’s in the way and is more often than not unpredictable! Get togethers pop up, dinner dates, work functions, you name it- they always TRY to get in the way. With the Fast Track to Fittest program, my goal is to give you pointers and tips that have personally helped me succeed with my health and fitness goals. These are strategies I have used when I hit a rough patch or had an unexpected event and “thought” I blew my diet or derailed my training so much that I would not hit my goals. Rather than give up and give in during these type of situations, allow me to give you some workouts that will whip you into shape and unique tools to help you get back on track after a night out with friends, a missed workout or when life’s usual mishaps begin to creep in.

I Challenge You To Change Your Lifestyle

Angeles Burke IFBB Bikini Pro Celsius Fitness Director

With the Fast Track to Fittest, I challenge you to CHANGE your LIFESTYLE in small steps rather than doing a drastic overhaul that is restrictive and not realistic. Together we can tackle small goals one step at a time.

Each week new posts will be available in the tabs below to help guide you on your journey to becoming healthy and fit.

I look forward to sharing my tips to help you get in the best shape of your life!

Now, I want you to tell me what kind of workouts you would like to see in the Fast Track to Fittest program. Some like running programs others may like at home workouts.

Celsius was proud to sponsor the 3rd Annual American Lung Association Fight for Air climb which took place in numerous cities nationwide. This corporate wellness challenge was held in the 20-story Philips Point building in West Palm Beach, Florida on Saturday, November 19, 2011 from7 am – 12pm.  Funds raised from the event go towards supporting life saving research & education.  The event was a great platform for us to promote a healthy lifestyle, motivate employees, and get Celsius into the hands of many first responders.

This group of friends stated that they have never tried Celsius before but once they sampled it, they each consumed two cans before the event’s conclusion because they loved the taste so much.

This gentleman who is diabetic was pleased to learn that Celsius is something that he can drink since it doesn’t contain any sugar or high fructose corn syrup.

Petition Closed

The FL Legislature: Nullify Obamacare!

Going to the federal government to fix problems created by the federal government isn't just a bad idea - it doesn't work!

As Thomas Jefferson and James Madison advised - when the federal government violates the constitution, it's up to US - in our states - to stand up and say NO.

To the Affordable Care Act - we say Nullify It!

"Whensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers.....a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy." That's Thomas Jefferson's message for unconstitutional acts like the Affordable Care Act, AKA Obamacare. James Madison told us that the states are "duty bound to arrest the progress of evil...."

Today, we see undelegated powers - and the progression of evil. In response, our state needs to stand up and say NO. Please introduce, consider, and pass the "Federal Health Care Nullification Act" - as included in this petition. This bill will make clear that the state considers Obamacare to be unconstitutional - and will take all measures necessary to prevent its enforcement.

Only when enough people and enough states stand up to say NO! - can the Constitution reign supreme. The time for us to act is now.

An Act to render null and void certain unconstitutional laws enacted by the Congress of the United States, taking control over the health insurance industry and mandating that individuals purchase health insurance under threat of penalty.

SECTION 1. The legislature of the State of ____________ finds that:

1. The People of the several states comprising the United States of America created the federal government to be their agent for certain enumerated purposes, and nothing more.

2. The Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution defines the total scope of federal power as being that which has been delegated by the people of the several states to the federal government, and all power not delegated to the federal government in the Constitution of the United States is reserved to the states respectively, or to the people themselves.

3. The assumption of power that the federal government has made by enacting the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” interferes with the right of the People of the State of _____________ to regulate health care as they see fit, and makes a mockery of James Madison’s assurance in Federalist #45 that the “powers delegated” to the Federal Government are “few and defined”, while those of the States are “numerous and indefinite.”

A new section of law to be codified in the [STATE] Statutes as Section [NUMBER] of Title [NUMBER], unless there is created a duplication in numbering, reads as follows:

A. The Legislature of the State of _______________ declares that the federal law known as the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,” signed by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010, is not authorized by the Constitution of the United States and violates its true meaning and intent as given by the Founders and Ratifiers, and is hereby declared to be invalid in this state, shall not be recognized by this state, is specifically rejected by this state, and shall be considered null and void and of no effect in this state.

B. It shall be the duty of the legislature of this State to adopt and enact any and all measures as may be necessary to prevent the enforcement of the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” within the limits of this State.

C. Any official, agent, or employee of the United States government or any employee of a corporation providing services to the United States government that enforces or attempts to enforce an act, order, law, statute, rule or regulation of the government of the United States in violation of this act shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction must be punished by a fine not exceeding five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), or a term of imprisonment not exceeding five (5) years, or both.

D. Any public officer or employee of the State of ____________ that enforces or attempts to enforce an act, order, law, statute, rule or regulation of the government of the United States in violation of this act shall be guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding two (2) years or by a fine not exceeding One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) or both such fine and imprisonment.

E. Any aggrieved party shall also have a private action against any person violating the provisions of subsections (C) or (D).

SECTION 3. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

If they make a school version it could be shown in schools and then all kids from middle school up could view it. I was bullied in elementary school there is NO AGE LIMIT TO BULLYING AND THERE SHOULD BE NO AGE LIMIT TO THIS MOVIE. Bullying starts young way young and we have to stop it. This movie must be shown in all schools, but they wont allow it with the current version with the curse words.

California Vegetarian Santa Maria

Santa Maria Barbecue restaurants with a vegetarian in tow?

Santa Maria Barbecue restaurants with a vegetarian in tow?

janetofreno | Jan 1, 2012 06:19 PM

My husband's work is taking him to Santa Maria in a few weeks....and I was thinking I would tag along for the ride and maybe to do a little wine tasting in the area. I have always wanted to eat at one of the barbecue places there, and figure this is my chance. But DH is largely vegetarian (he will eat fish and very rarely poultry, but never beef or pork) and didn't seem thrilled by the possibility. So, hounds, help me get my tri-tip fix. Which of the many options is one where he will have some chance of finding something he likes to eat? He would love barbecued oysters, but I think of that as a Northern California specialty. Do the major restaurants frown on someone who just wants the side dishes (he would be perfectly happy with salad and pinto beans, but doesn't want to be subject to a waiter's sneer...). Suggestions, hounds? Perhaps takeout is the secret, and if so any good suggestions for picnic spots?

yvonne johnson | May 6, 2001 01:18 AM

dinner last night at wallsé (344 w 11, 352 2300). Im not up on austrian cuisine but here goes

As ($12): I was pleased with my trout and eel with watercress, apple and a little crème freche. two who had the rabbit salad with corn were pleased.

Ms(mid-high $20s): beautifully steamed halibut but I found the bed of dill and cucumber overwhelming. I tasted the venison-nice slightly crispy outside. My husband had the lambhe said it was not that flavorful. I didnt care for the sides of potato puree. I love pots, but imv this didnt taste of pot, more like plain cream. That said I was in the minoritythe other two loved it.

after both my app and main were placed in front of me I had a funny feeling. Not only were both dishes predominately green, but they looked like concepts, not food. Not in the fancy way that architectural dishes puzzle, they looked almost too clean to eat. Funnynever felt this before in my life. But maybe this is what didnt work that well, there wasnt enough contrasting flavors.

Ds ($8): apple strudel. souffle with tart berries at the base. the latter, on the house, was spectacular.

Ws ($50-$60): We took a chance with austrian wines. The grevener vettliner, federspiel (sp?) 1999 was very light. (I regretted having the champagne with elderflower aperitif. It was refreshing, tho a little sweet and overloaded the tastebuds.) red, rosso e nero (?) 97 was spicey and therefore good

Service: Much too fast. Our apps arrived a little too soon after ordering and before our wine arrived. The junior wait staff hovered too much, over-keen to attempt to remove plates before we were finished. this said, our waitress was very kind.

This used to the Black Sheep if I remember right. The place has been completely done over, and is tastefully decorated. White walls, black suede banquettes and chairs. The only color was the pink blossom by the windows. The chef, I guess, kurt guttenbrunner, was by the bar when we arrived and said hello. Very friendly welcome by the other staff too.

but i can't quite get over the monochrome green food on square plates.

Film Review: 'The Second Mother'

Anna Muylaert's heartwarming The Second Mother (2015) stars Regina Casé as Val, a live-in housekeeper for a wealthy family in São Paulo, has helped bring up their 17-year-old son Fabinho (Michel Joelsas). She loves him as her own and he adores her. But Val's work comes at a price. She was forced to leave behind her young daughter Jéssica with her estranged husband in order to be able to afford the money for her upkeep. Now 17, Jéssica (Márdila) contacts Val as she is coming to São Paulo to sit her university entrance exam. Val welcomes her daughter with love and trepidation but is mortified when Jéssica outright refuses to conform to or accept the hierarchies in the family's home.

Instead of sleeping on a mattress in her mother's tiny back room, Jéssica asks if she can sleep in the opulent guest bedroom complete with en suite bathroom. She's quick-witted, smart, intends to study architecture and is keen to prepare for the all important entrance exam. She's also curious about her surroundings, hungry for knowledge and quickly beguiles both Fabinho and his father. Carlos (Lourenço Mutarelli) has no need to work and is consequently bored and something of a loner. In contrast his ambitious wife, Dona Bárbara (Karine Teles), has a keen sense of her social status and is deeply suspicious of Jéssica and her refusal to fit in.

There's a vibrant political edge to Muylaert's well-structured script. With Jéssica's arrival, class barriers are broken down, petty snobberies are revealed and weaknesses uncovered. These are some wonderful telling moments such as when Dona Bárbara is forced to make Jéssica breakfast because she is sitting at their kitchen table. Later, Jéssica sits down to eat lunch with Carlos and develops a liking for Fabino's special chocolate ice cream. Val is scandalised by her daughter's presumptuousness, pointing out that the family only offer her things because they expect her to say no. In another dining room scene, the family sit in silence, incapable of communication because they are all separately attached to their smart phones. This brilliant, beautifully observed comedy is a joy to watch throughout. The Second Mother's narrative works on so many levels, reflected in the film's ambiguous title, and the characterisation is flawless.

CNET Editors' Rating

1 user review

The Good The Belkin Portable Keyboard Case for iPad Mini is trim and stylish, it's easy to pair via Bluetooth, and it offers long battery life. Also, the keys are hard and relatively tactile.

The Bad The keyboard is a little cramped and there's no dedicated apostrophe/quotation key. It doubles the weight of your iPad Mini.

The Bottom Line The Belkin iPad Mini Keyboard Case is one of the better keyboard cases currently available for the Mini -- but it does have its shortcomings.

6.9 Overall
  • Design 6.0
  • Features 7.0
  • Performance 7.0

Belkin makes a few different external Bluetooth keyboards and keyboard cases for the full-size iPad, so it's hardly a surprise that the accessory maker has ventured into Mini territory with its simply named Portable Keyboard Case for iPad Mini ($79.99 list).

Let's start with the good stuff. Belkin's done a nice job of making a keyboard case that's pretty trim and protective at the same time. At first glance, you wouldn't even know that there was a keyboard inside, and when I showed the case to people, they were surprised to see the keyboard when I opened the case up (the flap adheres magnetically and stays shut).

To be sure, this isn't nearly as light as the plethora of slim cases that are available for the Mini. It weighs in at 11.2 ounces, a tad more than the 10.9-ounce Mini itself; that means it effectively doubles the weight when attached. But it's still nicely styled, and its faux leather finish has a rubberized texture to it.

The cover folds back into a stand. Sarah Tew/CNET

I also liked how the front cover folds back into a stand. To make that happen, you have to fold down the top part of the case, which seems a little tricky at first, but ultimately is simple enough. You then end up fiddling around with the cover a bit, trying to make a triangle with the flap and making the magnet on the flap stick in just the right place. Once you get it right, your iPad is supported nicely at around a 60-degree angle.

When the case is closed, you wouldn't necessarily know there's a keyboard inside. Sarah Tew/CNET

The keys are made of hard plastic and are pretty tactile, with some spacing between them. Overall, it's not on par with an Apple Bluetooth keyboard, but at least the keys aren't too tiny.

Pairing the keyboard via Bluetooth was also easy -- it charges with an included USB cable -- and there's an on/off switch to conserve battery life. Belkin says you can get up to 155 hours of "active" battery life. I only used it for a few days so I can't confirm that number, but Bluetooth keyboards sip power pretty slowly.

When Psychosis Meets Dark Fantasy- Michael R. Fletcher’s Beyond Redemption

Posted on Feb 8, 2017 by in Small Press | 1 comment

I interviewed Michael R. Fletcher earlier last year, when he first gave me a review copy of Beyond Redemption, the first book of his Manifest Delusions series. The interview was a good idea for me to get to know him as an author and to help promote his work before finishing his novel, which I knew would take some time. Although I already had the review copy, what I read was good enough for me to buy a copy later on.

A few weeks ago, though I had started the Beyond Redemption work first, I was able to read Fire and Flesh, which served as a great introduction into the world of Manifest Delusions. Fire and Flesh was a short read that was also entertaining, and I’m glad I finished it before finishing the novel, since it complimented Beyond Redemption so well. I wrote a review  for the work which is also here on Comicbooked.

The story behind Beyond Redemption is pretty interesting. Delusions grant special abilities to powerful people. A theocrat raises a gifted child in the hopes that the child will become a God, a deity who will be under his control. Why worship a God when a God can worship you and do whatever you wnat, right?

As the theocrat works towards his goal, three adventurers hear of this special future deity, and see an opportunity to reach their own selfish goals…

In reading Michael R. Fletcher’s work, I was first impressed with how hard he worked to create something new. Fletcher was successful in being innovative with this epic series he’s created. He took German words and terminology in a creative way (as he’s not a native or fluent German speaker, he did take a lot of artistic license in the task!) to describe characters, places, and settings in his Beyond Redemption novel. The innovation doesn’t end there: Michael R. Fletcher used psychology, and different neurological/pathological disorders in his world building as well. I jokingly told him his work made me want to study the DSM-V, and he admitted to spending a lot of time researching this psychology manual, in order to make realistically demented and delusional characters.

The research paid off.

There are powerful people in this novel with a variety of abilities. Through delusion, there are those who can use doppels, basically neurotic copies of themselves that assume some specific aspect of their personality/psychology and do tasks for their creator. There are Hassebrands, who can conjure fire with mere thought and desire. There are Mirrorists, who can communicate to reflections and gain truths others can’t, and powerful seducers who can play on people’s emotions in a cult leader fashion, making them do the unspeakable.

Michael R. Fletcher’s Beyond Redemption is a joy to read. The psychological complexity that comes with such a fast-paced novel is pretty impressive. Like his short story Fire and Flesh, which served as a prototype for the Manifest Delusions series, Beyond Redemption bridges the gap between a novel with depth and a novel that flows. The action scenes are crisp, but they don’t linger too long. The descriptions are thorough, but they don’t get lost in too much flower and fluff.
This is why Fletcher impresses me so much as a writer. Some authors feel a story should go the complete route of entertainment for entertainment’s sake, with a bunch of “kabooms” and “kablooies” with little character development, little world-building, and a huge lack of heart. Other writers, who I am biasedly a fan of as a lover of epic fantasy, can get quite prosey, with expansive world-building, heavy focusing on characterization, and detailed observations in every scene. For Fletcher to bridge the gap for a epic fiction lover like me, and a “for the thrills” reader like others, is pretty impressive. It’s cool to see characters like Gehirm, Erebrechen, Konig, and Aufschlag who are very complex in their psychology and personalities, yet still see a story that moves without effort, where there is always something interesting happening. From action scenes to dialogue and character interactions, the story never stops, even when we look into a character’s contemplation. As an author, reading Fletcher’s work is educational in the way that one doesn’t have to go all the way simple, or all the way difficult; he’s found the middle road in writing epic novels.
Fletcher writes in an omnipresent third person style, which is one of my favorite types of writing. For people who like to stick with one character all the way through the book, this book isn’t for them. Fans of works by Tad Williams, Dostoyveysky, and George R. R. Martin, who love to see a story from different character’s perspectives at different points of the story, will love Beyond Redemption and the Manifest Delusion series as a whole. Fletcher also does not shy away from looking at different perspectives within singular scenes, where we can see what one character is feeling and thinking along with the character they are interacting with. This adds to Fletcher’s focused evaluation of humanity and the mind in a world where delusion is power, where people have special ability due to their mental illnesses and flaws. This shows an experimental aspect of Fletcher’s writing where he isn’t afraid to break the rules, and doesn’t just want to give us one set of eyes to view the story from. He’s also good at making us feel empathy for characters who are pretty despicable, people who have rough pasts and current circumstances that make them horrible, as if fate could never give them a better experience. We understand that their temperaments and abnormalities have a source in their histories, and perhaps they don’t have the choices they believe they have.
In Beyond Redemption, there is a look at cults and cultist behavior. From Konig and his need to make a God whom he can control, to the priests who worship this chosen deity, and the Charles Manson/Jim Jones nature of Erchebren (by far the most disgusting character of the book), Fletcher looks at how the vulnerable how exploited by manipulators, but he also looks at how manipulators are perhaps the most vulnerable people… even more than their victims. We see fragile egos in leadership roles who will do anything to accomplish their goals by using people, but when their backstories are revealed to us, we see broken figures in pain, self-hating, broken humans who are trying to run away from themselves in pursuit of power. Such people can be responsible for holy wars and utter chaos.
Along with a standard glossary for cities and terms, there are also two more helpful glossaries in the back of the book. One is a Cast of Characters, which can help since many names are loosely based on German and, though there aren’t too many characters in Beyond Redemption, it can help people keep track of them. The other glossary is very helpful; titled The Delusional, this second glossary helps people keep track of the different types of abilities people have in the novel. For instance, people who have pyromantic (fire magic) abilities are called Hassebrands, and people who can interact with reflections in mirrors to learn about the future or recieve other answers are called Mirrorists. There are many classifications people can fall into depending on their powers, so this list is very helpful, especially since Fletcher’s mythology is pretty unique and thorough, even for a novel that proved to be a quicker read than most epics I’ve encountered.
I loved this book. I finished it at a great time, because the second book of Manifest Delusions, The Mirror’s Truth, is out now on Amazon. I can’t wait to devour that book as well, and I hope you get a chance to check out Fletcher’s work as well.

How Glass Scientists Took on the Challenge of Harnessing Light

How Glass Scientists Harnessed Light

The information we sort through on our electronic devices each day seems to come out of nowhere. Just as we turn on a faucet and expect to get water, we assume the bandwidth is there to support our online communications demands.

But it’s the powerful, always-on capability of global optical fiber networks – enabled by more than two billion kilometers of thin glass strands– that ensure that we can post, chat, download, and transact with ease.

How did glass become the medium that harnessed light and transformed modern communications?

The revolution began in the mid-1960s, when most communications networks were based on copper wire, which transmitted signals electrically. Problem was, copper networks were severely limited in both speed and capacity for the growing communications needs of contemporary business.

Shifting from electrical to optical transmission looked intriguing, but early optical fibers couldn’t transmit light signals over long distances without loss of signal strength, a problem known as attenuation.

By 1965, the British Post Office developed a visionary plan to modernize its communications infrastructure. Post Office leaders turned to Corning Incorporated – already a noted leader in specialty glass innovations – to develop a low-loss optical fiber.

To meet their goals, Post Office officials  weren’t looking for any modest fiber improvements. They would need an unheard-of 98% reduction in signal attenuation from other glass fibers available at the time.

Corning formed a small multi-disciplinary team of Ph.Ds to take on the daunting task: physicist Robert Maurer, chemist Peter Schultz, and engineer Don Keck. Maurer led and coordinated the effort. Schultz was in charge of glass composition. And Keck was in charge of actually measuring the light transmission and attenuation.

As with all experiments, there were many trials, many setbacks, and many late nights in the lab.

One of the biggest challenges was finding the right glass encasement, or cladding, for the fiber. Essential because its low refractive index confines light to the core of the fiber, the cladding needed to be thin, flexible, and inch-for-inch stronger than steel.

The team had an idea that if they could capture some of the soot generated by the high-temperature fiber manufacturing process, they could also nab a necessary additive called dopant.

Using an unlikely tool – an old vacuum cleaner – the scientists drew the soot out of the flame into the cladding tube, and it deposited on the inside wall. After intense heating, the soot would fuse to the inside of the fiber, a process called sintering.

The team predicted that the process would solve the problem of scattering and losing light.

They were right.

And in 1970, by doping the silica glass fiber with titanium, the inventors reached  a breakthrough.  They developed an optical fiber with attenuation of 17 decibels per kilometer – loss levels even lower than the 98%-reduction goal the British Post Office needed.

The innovation immediately established that optical communications could be practical.

And key milestones that followed the breakthrough firmly established glass optical fiber as the key enabler of the communications revolution:

Glass Optical Fiber Milestones

Today’s optical fiber has dramatically improved in performance since its early days in the lab. Contemporary fibers have the ability to transmit the entire collection of the U.S. Library of Congress from Florida to London in under 25 seconds. It’s also three times stronger than steel, more durable than copper, and light and flexible.

With its unmatched speed and capacity, optical fiber is certain to remain at the heart of networks that are smoothly connecting growing data traffic around the world.

Honorary Secretary's Report 2016

by Ken McKeown

Cricket Switzerland

Following is a summary report on the administration of Cricket Switzerland in Season 2016. For the purposes of this report, activities and meetings that took place between the AGM of 2016 and the AGM of 2017 are included. Full details of all key decisions taken are to be found in the official meeting records.

Cricket Switzerland members were kept informed on a regular basis of developments chiefly via the Cricket Switzerland website, in Newsletters and during the various meetings.

Annual General Meeting (AGM)

The second Cricket Switzerland AGM since the creation of the organisation in 2014 (at an Inaugural General Meeting) was held in Berne on 27 February 2016.

La Chataignerie School and Geneva Sri Lankans were accorded Associate status, having been Affiliate members for the previous twelve months.
Freiburg Nomads, Geneva and Zurich Sapphires were all welcomed as new Affiliate members.
The minutes of the AGM contain details of the discussions and decisions.

The Council is required to meet at least at least once each year about one month prior to the start of each season.
The Council met for the first time in Season 2016 on 27 February. It also met on 15 October 2016.
For the first time an annual Operational/Development Plan was prepared, for Season 2016. Council adopted the Plan, which will be revised and submitted at the first Council meeting of each year.
The minutes of the Council meetings contain details of the discussions and decisions.
Council meeting minutes are considered by the subsequent Council.

Executive Committee

The EC managed the affairs of Cricket Switzerland in accordance with its Constitution and in line with the decisions and instructions of the IGM and the Council.

In 2016 the members were:

President  Alexander Mackay
Vice President  Abraham Koshy
Honorary Secretary Kenneth McKeown
Honorary Treasurer Clive-William Denney
Competitions Chairman Asvin Lakkaraju
International Match Manager  Christopher Lodge
Youth Development Officer Yateendra Sinh/replaced by Michael Hall
Sponsorship & Publicity Co-ordinator Rajan Thambahalli
Women’s Cricket Development Officer Veena Mampilly

The Committee met on three occasions between the 2016 and 2017 AGMs, in May, September and October 2016 and is scheduled to meet once more on 18 February 2017. Issues that required higher consideration or decision were referred to the Council or the AGM.

The members of Cricket Switzerland in Season 2016 were:

Associate Affiliate
Basle Dragons Juniors
Geneva International
Geneva Region Youth
Geneva Sri Lankans
Geneva X1 Stars
La Chataigneraie School
Power Winterthur
Royal Zurich
St. Gallen
Zurich Crickets

Cricket Coaches Association of Switzerland
Freiburg Nomads
Lyceum- Alpinium
St. Moritz
Zurich Sapphires

The Cricket Switzerland website was kept up to date throughout the season. A regular Newsletter continued to complement the website; the objective remained as publicising Cricket Switzerland activities and news more or less monthly, depending on available information and newsworthy topics. Other issues were addressed to members by email from the Secretary.

Swiss Olympic

There was little dialogue with Swiss Olympic (SO) in 2016. Dialogue will be resumed when the required number of active playing clubs to meet the SO eligibility criteria has been achieved.

International Cricket Council (ICC)

Switzerland’s membership of the ICC remained cancelled. Following intervention by the Chairman of the ICC, a meeting between the two Swiss cricket organisations and the ICC took place in Lausanne in April 2016, following which a written agreement was reached to attempt merging the two cricket organisations.
One meeting was held between the two parties, in August 2016, and many written exchanges followed. Due to significant differences in implementation of the Agreement and refusal of the other party to enter into due diligence of its accounts and membership, the ICC was informed in January 2017 that little progress had been made. The outcome of further dialogue with the ICC will be reported orally to the AGM.

Roku remotes and units

The little black box that could may be on its way out.

The little black box that could may be on its way out.

Roku, the company best-known for the set-top boxes that stream media directly to your television, recently unveiled its newest Streaming Stick, a USB-like device that plugs into the HDMI port in your television. As Wired reported earlier this year, however, the company’s Phase Two is about more than embracing the technology that have made the Fire TV Stick popular with consumers: Roku wants to become a software platform. The company’s hope is to “[power] the next generation of television—no matter what company is producing or distributing it.”

In layman’s terms, that means the company will likely be throwing its resources into producing television software in order to compete with the rise of the Apple TV. This January, the Tim Cook-owned company’s own media streaming device posted record numbers: Together, the Apple Watch and Apple TV brought in $18.4 billion in sales during the fourth quarter of 2015. (Their profits are bundled by Apple, so it’s hard to report on individual sales or the specific number of units pushed.) As of November, the Apple TV bested Roku to become the biggest-selling set-top box in America.

But instead of trying to beat Apple by building a better box, Roku is attempting to rethink the television—thus, making the next for a separate streaming device obsolete. During an April speech at the Collision conference, Roku CEO Anthony Wood predicted the demise of the dongle. “TVs are gonna win,” Wood said. “The consumers like convenience.”

Roku may help take down the very market it helped build.

He has a point: Why pay $199 (or even $50, the retail price of the Streaming Stick) for another piece of technology if you can kill two birds with one smart TV?

In doing so, Roku may help take down the very market it helped build.

When the Roku box was initially conceived in 2007, the technology was known as “Griffin”—inspired by the Tim Robbins character in Robert Altman’s The Player. The device was developed by Netflix as an extension of its nascent video streaming service: In order to watch Netflix directly from the Internet, customers would have to pay separately for what then resembled an extremely petite cable box.

At the time, Griffin’s major competition was TiVo, the once ubiquitous DVR recorder that had recently fallen on hard times. Once so ubiquitous that Miranda memorably romanced her TiVo on Sex and the City, the company had plummeted to just 1.7 million subscribers in 2007. For reference, that figure is just slightly less than the number of people (read: old people) still paying for dial-up Internet through America Online. In 2014, that number dropped even further—all the way to 937,000. That makes it about half as popular as AOL.

The rise of streaming Internet was the final death knell for services like DVR, because what services like Netflix and Hulu offered was a world where you never had to worry about recording your favorite television shows in the first place. Back in 2012, Ad Age predicted that the rise of Video On Demand, in which channels like HBO and Showtime upload content for users to view at any time would make the need to separately record television shows “obsolete.”

If Steve Jobs once promised that his company would be the one to ‘crack’ television, smart TVs will be the technology that cracks it open.

They were both right and wrong on that front: In many ways, streaming is just VOD for a post-television landscape. It’s on-demand programming you take with you. But if the living room is no longer the center of the home media experience, the success of the Apple TV shows that there’s still a demand for exactly what the Griffin promised: making the Internet the future of television. In order to do so, then-Netflix CEO Reed Hastings into a separate company, which we know today as Roku.

If the set-top box was originally intended to solely stream video content, its scope has expanded tremendously over the past seven years. As of December 2015, the Apple TV boasts over 2,500 downloadable apps, also functioning as an Internet browser and a game console; currently, 38 percent of apps available for the Apple TV are dedicated solely to gaming.

But if Steve Jobs once promised that his company would be the one to “crack” television, smart TVs will be the technology that cracks it open.

After just over a year on the market, Samsung announced at CES 2016 that the company had shipped 20 million of its Tizen-powered smart TVs although the company didn’t state whether those figures were international or domestic.(Think of the product as Apple TV, just without the box.) In 2014, Roku sold 10 million of its set-top boxes—and that was seven years after Griffin initially launched.

Roku debuted its own smart TV two years ago, perhaps prophesizing its own doom. As CNet’s Matthew Moskovciak notes, there’s little that separates the Roku TV in terms of capability from its standard device. “A Roku TV is exactly what it sounds like: a standard HDTV that essentially has a Roku box built-in,” he writes. If the main attraction of the Roku TV is, thus, the company’s streaming technology, its hardware has only become more sophisticated with the recent introduction of its 4K television. With prices starting at $400, the company’s newest TV started rolling out to retailers, including Best Buy, this month.

If Roku is getting out of the set-top box industry, it’s a better time than ever to do so. With the introduction Google Chromecast and the Fire TV Stick, there are more companies competing for less space—and likely fewer customers. In a market where companies are scrambling to figure out what the “next big thing” is, what was supposed to be the future of TV becomes its past more quickly than ever before.

Should you need any indication of how true that is, just ask the folks at TiVo

A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that Roku produces televisions, rather than television software. The story has also been updated to clarify Samsung’s sales numbers for Tizen-powered smart TVs, and to correct the name of the Fire TV stick.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued, on January 17, 2013, its Final Omnibus Rule modifying the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) Privacy and Security Rules as well as the breach notification rules of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH”).  Our initial discussion can be found here.  The healthcare industry has been waiting for the final rule for more than two and half years–now that it is here, what do Covered Entities (CEs) and Business Associates (BAs) need to do to prepare for compliance?  We will cover recommendations for CEs in this post, Part I, and BAs will be addressed in Part II.

Incident Response Plans:  To the extent you are a CE who has been waiting for the final rule to implement an incident response plan (IRP), now is the time.  An IRP helps the breach response team respond to privacy events by providing them with a roadmap so that a determination can be made as to whether or not a breach has occurred.  At a minimum, new and existing plans should incorporate the factors outlined by HHS to be considered:  (1) the nature and extent of PHI involved; (2) the unauthorized person who used the PHI or to whom the disclosure was made; (3) whether PHI was actually acquired or viewed; (4) the extent to which the risk to PHI has been mitigated (e.g. assurances from trusted third-parties that the information was destroyed).

Policies and Procedures:  CEs policies and procedures, including the Notice of Privacy Policy, must be updated and amended to reflect the new requirements.  For example, there are new requirements regarding the timeliness of responding to requests for a copy of PHI.

Breach Analysis Forms:  CEs have been utilizing forms that reflect the language of the interim final rule where the focus is on the potential harm to the patient.  Many CEs have also utilized breach analysis forms that depend on a risk rating developed by third parties to assess whether there is a significant risk of harm due to the impermissible use or disclosure.  The standard has changed and so will the required analysis.  A breach is presumed unless the CE can show that there is a low possibility of a compromise.  Moreover, HHS has outlined at least four (4) factors that must be considered.  (The four factors are listed under Incident Response Plans, supra.)

Education:  HHS and OCR expect that healthcare organizations will create a culture of compliance.  Raising awareness about the importance of privacy issues through education is just one way to achieve this goal.  CEs should consider other opportunities to keep privacy at the top of their employees’ minds (e.g., posters, newsletters, committee calls).  Just as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is promoting Privacy by Design, CEs need to consider ways that privacy awareness can be incorporated into every aspect of patient care and healthcare operations.

Vendor Lists and Vendor Contracts:  Vendors remain the cause of a large percentage of breaches that occur; more than a third of all breaches are caused by vendors.  Even though BAs are now directly liable, the final rule makes it clear that CEs have an obligation related to appropriately selecting and retaining vendors.  Review your vendor lists to see if any vendors should be removed because of issues relating to data security and privacy.  Review your contracts to see if language needs to be updated to reflect the final rule.

Risk Assessments and Risk Management Plans:  HIPAA requires healthcare organizations to conduct periodic risk assessments and then to address the risks identified in a risk management plan.  Now is a good time to review and assess your risks to determine if changes can be made to help avoid breaches. Privacy counsel can be a critical member of this exercise.  For example, in some instances, outside counsel can retain the vendor and oversee the project to help maintain the attorney-client privilege. The experience of the privacy counsel, however, is also crucial.  Organizations should retain counsel who has been involved in dozens of OCR investigations and who can provide guidance around what OCR is asking for during those investigations.  That experience translates into the organization’s ability to better identify risk mitigation strategies in response to the vulnerabilities found during the risk assessment.

Cyber Insurance:  There are many types of cyber policies being sold to healthcare organizations.  Whether or not you have purchased cyber insurance for breach notification, consider seriously the scope of your coverage for regulatory violations and defense of class actions. We predict that OCR and State Attorneys General (SAGs) are going to be far more aggressive than in the past.  Additionally, due to the changed threshold for breach notification, we may see more class action lawsuits which are expensive to defend.

Legal:  Experienced outside privacy counsel is critical for full compliance with the breach notification requirements of the final rule.  A breach is now presumed which means that outside counsel is going to need to help document the reasons why an organization concludes a breach did not occur.

Forensics:  I am not a big proponent of retaining forensics companies prior to a breach occurring.  This is because, like lawyers, the strengths amongst forensics firms varies.  Therefore, if I am dealing with an issue involving a new malware variant, I may find a forensics vendor who has experience with the variant and is better positioned to assist my client.  The final rule, however, is a bit of a game changer and I am now encouraging my clients who do not have insurance to interview a few forensics firms as the new breach notification rules make it clear that a technically sound and understandable forensics report is critical for supporting determinations that a breach did not occur.  For those that have insurance, talk to your broker or carrier about the forensics options and seek recommendations from them as to how the coverage will support you with the changes in the regulations.

The final rule becomes effective on March 26, 2013, but enforcement will not commence until September 23, 2013.  This does not mean that mean that organizations do not need to be compliant.  The Office for Civil Rights (OCR) has made it clear that civil monetary penalties (CMPs) will be on the rise for HIPAA violations.  A culture of compliance is expected and not encouraged.

On Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at Noon EST, we will be hosting a webinar to discuss some of the big changes in the final rule.  You may register here.

Private iPad games asking for a password Tue, 29 July 2014 03:24
I am trying to play a private game against my dad. We are both using iPads. I find his username from my buddy list, invite him to play, and he gets an invitation asking for the game's password. The problem is, I was never asked to create a password. Nor was there any option to password protect the game in the first place. What are we doing wrong? How do two iPad players create a private game that doesn't involve a password ... Can I just invite a friend to play, he accepts, and the game starts? Thanks in advance ... JG

CBlogs o' 11/11/2013 + MacMangasms in 3D~~~~~

So I finally got a Smart TV with 3D from Samsung. HOLY SHIT

I now see what all the fuss is about. I wound up spending the past few days just wasting my life away, but in glorious 3D. I'd always thought the whole 3D thing was kinda dumb, but it was on sale. Wound up watching all kinds of National Geographic and seeing the Hobbit in 3D was pretty neat. Then came the tipping point.

Batman: Arkham Asylum

I got the Game O' The Year edition way back brushing off the fact that there's a 3D feature on it. But man, is it awesome. It's not the most mindblowing 3D you'll ever see but playing a video game in 3D (on a large screen, that is) was an impressive experience. I'd love to see other companies explore this avenue.

Anyone else out there a fan of 3D gaming?

Current "Bloggers Wanted" assignment
Lets Do Launch

In case you've been living under a rock or just waiting on NieR: Automata (thanks for the delay Amazon!), Nintendo just launched its newest console. Whether it's a success or a failure remains to be seen, but many people have bought themselves this shiny new console for their home. It's been a while since we've seen this sheer amount of excitement over a console, and a Nintendo one, no less, considering the amount of goodwill they probably have since the Wii U.

But the QP has been having endless buzz over the Switch, despite concerns over hardware faults in the Joy-Con or cheaply produced docks. Personally, I'd love one despite the lack of software on day one. I mean, I could play Zelda while at work. And not a handheld Zelda either. A proper, huge console-designed Zelda! Asides from that, it's all about the love of having shiny new tech in your hands. So that's what this month's bloggers wanted will be about: console launches, the hype and the release into getting it into your hands.

To participate, title your blog "Let's Do Launch: [your title here]" and use the "Bloggers Wanted" tag, and in a general sense, talk about your favorite launches. We've had the PS4 and Xbone years back but were we genuinely excited or just looking forward to it? Or how about where you were when the GameCube released? Don't worry too much about celebrating the exact launch date, either. I still clearly remember the time I got my Sega Genesis from Costco, complete in a bundle with Ecco the Dolphin and Donald Duck's QuackShot.

Don't worry about being positive or timely. Did you grow up to see the Vectrex launch? Go ahead and enlighten us youngins about how much of a love/hate relationship you may or may not have. Still rocking an Ngage? I'm sure you are. So how did it feel to purchase such a mistake of the universe? Go ahead and let us know, and eventually, we'll get around to promoting it to the front page!

Syndicate cast includes Rosario Dawson and more

Electronic Arts and Starbreeze Studios have revealed some familiar names included in the voice cast of Syndicate. First up is Rosario Dawson, who is described as playing a "rising star" in the syndicate EuroCorp.

"She's an interesting and strong female character," says Dawson. "How cool is it to play the mastermind who designed the military chip inside the player's head!"

Also lending their talents to the game are Brian Cox and Michael Wincott, both of whom are said to play significant roles within EuroCorp. I'm eager to hear how these guys all sound in the game; you never really know what you're going to get.

The Walking Dead's next episode is 'around the corner'

Straight from the horse's mouth

The second chapter of the second season of Telltale Games' The Walking Dead looks to be imminent, but details are scarse. The developer tweeted a picture of Clementine with the caption "Still. Not. Bitten.," adding that the next installment is "just around the corner."

Lately, Telltale has made a habit out of teasing these things about a week ahead of time, most recently with The Wolf Among Us, which will see its second episode, Smoke & Mirrors, release tomorrow. Maybe Telltale's intent to flood all of our foreseeable spare time in the near future with its episodic stories. Maybe it's determined to silence the outcries that it's not doing anything. Regardless, it's not a bad situation to be in right now for Telltale fans.
