Intelli-Tastic Times! – The Half-Baked Creators League Ltd.
It is I, the Chairman!
I'm getting to that, Dr. House… Jeeze..
Anywho– I come before you today to discuss a veritible titan of pre-crash posterity.
Frankly– it reminds me a bit of a marriage between the Colecovision and any piece of furniture from 1975– but here we are..
Actually though, development of this archaic machine began in 1977– the same year the Atari 2600 was released. A ballsy move if ever there was one.
What truly set this system apart from its competetors however, was it's slew of peripherals and industry firsts.
Let's roll up our sleeves and get right into it, shall we?
Toting a custom chipset developed for Mattel in 1977 called the GI CP1610– the Intellivision was already poised to deliver a blow to the current market king-of-the-hill: Atari.
524B S-RAM, 932B V-RAM and 7168B ROM, while not meaning a whole lot to me paritcularly– meant for faster, more powerful processing power, better graphics and a library of game concepts that had never before been attempted due to restrictions in hardware.
Why, even the controllers we're state of the art for their time, in that they featured the first every 'directional thumb pad' known as the control disk. A cross between a joystick and a paddle, as it was described.
They even featured a numerical key-pad, much like the Coleco did, except many games featured custom overlays for this that served to dictate what each key did for that particular title.
As can be seen here; there were many… And they were actually pretty damn cool!
Now as I mentioned, before– the Intellivision had a slew of peripherals that made it stand out amongst other consoles of the time.
If any of you happened to have taken a look at my Colecovision post, you'd know that I was rather excited about the add-ons available for it.
That's right kids, much like the Colecovision's Adam, the Intellivision's Blue Whale or Intelliputer addon would turn your home console into a home computer.
It allowed users to load an execute programs from tape across both programming code structures afforded to the Intellvision by its two different processors.
Though never being meant as a business or hobbyist computer model, it would run pre-programmed software and Videotex instead of allowing users to write to tape themselves, as the Colecovision's Adam had.
Initially– it was developed as a form of internal competition against the team divising the Keyboard peripheral. Apparently, Mattel's upper echelon was worried about the progress on the aforementioned peripheral, and decided it best to sic a secondary team on the problem lest they face the hammer of the Federal Trade Commission.
The result of this was a team who begun work on a BASIC development system which they'd planned to sell as an educational device to teach programming at an early age.
However in truth, this team's real purpose was to fix the Keyboard Component– or replace it entirely.
You see– the FTC had been hounding Mattel due to their early promise of a home computer conversion that would be made available for the Intellivision. Infact– many people purchased the system with that very promise on the forefront of their minds.
It was taking longer than expected however– so the ECS was developed as a means to get the guv'ment off their backs.
In the end, it was significantly underpowered compared to hardware upgrades the Keyboard peripheral offered– but at least did include the BASIC development system that was originally touted– albeit buggy at best.
Though by far the coolest addition the ECS offered was the expansion of the Intellivision's controller ports– bringing the maximum user base of a single unit from 2 players, to 4!
One of my favorites here, very cool..
In 1982, Mattel had decided to go all in with the insanity– and introduced to the public, a voice synthesizing module.
The Intellivoice basically served as a speech synthesizer which would produce dialogue available for compatible cartridges. It was available in both male and female voices and even came with a slew of distinct accents.
Unfortunately, only five games were ever able to utilize this amazing piece of hardware.
In 1981, Mattel decided it would be neat to afford it's users the ability to download titles over their cable service lines. The PlayCable was the first every peripheral to allow for DLC.
Unfortunately, it was not well recieved as it's hefty price tag didn't mesh well with the limitations of the hardware at large.
Sadly, this device was discontinued only two years after its release.
With the aforementioned ECS module installed, you could toss this bad boy into the mix and make yourt own music.
It featured 49 keys, and thanks to the ECS' built in additional sound chip– a slew of pre-programmed voices.
Now that we've managed to get through slew of available addons– let's tackle what the Intellivision was actually MEANT to do.
By 1989, a total of 133 'games' were released for the system.
Most of the software available for the Intellivision was focused around realistic scenarios with an emphasis on said realism.
Sports games that ranged from baseball to boxing– from bowling to golf… hell even U.S. team skiing. Where as on the flip side of things– is America's second favorite passtime. War.
Armor battle, Sea Battle and Sub Hunt are just a few examples of our collective lust for the blood of a thousand pixels.
And how could I close things out without mentioning Utopia!
Proudly touting the title of the worlds first strategy construction/management sim ever.
As I said earlier– many firsts, such wow.
So what are your thoughts on this archic system?
Did you ever own one?
Do you now wish you had?
Are you currently on ebay dropping thousands of dollars to get yourself one?
Yeah, me either– but you cannot deny it's importance in gaming's history at large.


Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a saucepan, combine cream and vanilla bean and cook over low heat just until hot. Let sit for a few minutes, then discard vanilla bean. (If using vanilla extract, add it now.) In a bowl, beat yolks and sugar together until light. Stir about a quarter of the cream into this mixture, then pour sugar-egg mixture into cream and stir. Pour into four 6-ounce ramekins and place ramekins in a baking dish; fill dish with boiling water halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until centers are barely set. Cool. Ramekins can be wrapped tightly and refrigerated for a couple of days. When ready to serve, top each custard with about a teaspoon of sugar in a thin layer. Place ramekins in a broiler 2 to 3 inches from heat source. Turn on broiler. Cook until sugar melts and browns or even blackens a bit, about 5 minutes. Serve within two hours.
- you could also choose to use the vanilla bean, but choose instead to add whole (possibly vanilla hazelnut) coffee beans into the the cream while it's heating. Then spoon them out.

I skipped the institute that day and I knew I was going to get in trouble. I just wanted to be out for christmas. Not that I even celebrate christmas,but that was the excuse I gave myself at the time. It was christmas and I wanted to be out and not in class.We all took our chances and all of our parents were called. No one but my parents took this seriously. I remember going to the institute the next day asking," so who got whipped?". They all had a very ordinary day. But I felt better already since I was talking about it the next day.
I once injured my foot during a very hard trail race, went back home limping. The next day it was slightly worse, I had to take some pills for the swelling to decrease faster and I hate medication. A couple of days later I felt better.
I once got in trouble at work for leaving early without an explanation. My boss started calling me at 5:15, and I was already at the movies. I finish work at 5:30. I assumed that like every other day I won't have anything to do so took off. But that one day where I actually took off….Life. I really wasn't looking forward for the next day. I had to call him after the movie and make up a stupid lie. He told me that he'll be giving me a warning letter first thing in the morning. I quit that job the same way. I just took off. It was refreshing.
When I sit myself to recalculate how I have been behaving with myself or others, I always look forward to tomorrow. I have hope for tomorrow. Some tomorrow's are worse than the others, like the time I was expecting a warning letter. But the day after tomorrow was better. And the time I injured my foot, a few tomorrow's later and it was all good.
They say live in the present. But I at the present moment am not in the best state of mind, or in my best behavior. I am slacking off life at this present moment. I should be producing, but i'm not. So I always look forward to tomorrow. When in pain and in doubt, I think of the sun coming up tomorrow and how much hope, probability and good could come out of tomorrow. So if you're having a bad day, stop living in the present please and think of tomorrow. Sometimes the present is filled with pain, uncertainty, and total uncoolness.
If today hasn't turned out to be your day then live for tomorrow my fellow readers. Live for the sunset, that in itself is a miracle happening in plain sight. Tomorrow always gives me hope.


SANS reviewed Arctic Wolf's services from a customer's point of view and found that its AWN CyberSOC™ (SOC-as-a- service) offering provided visibility into events they launched in their mock midsize enterprise, caught and helped them repair vulnerabilities purposely left in the environment for review, and provided accurate reporting throughout the review.
Most important, SANS was also afforded access, as needed, to a live engineer to send reports and help troubleshoot investigations. All of this worked seamlessly—without the high costs of implementation, configuration and tuning.
This test simulated real-world attacks against a customer's website on the Internet, for example, an e-commerce website that used to conduct online credit card transactions. AWN CyberSOC was found to provide the information needed to understand attacks in a clear and easily understood format in the AWN Customer Portal so that the right assessments could be made quickly. No user training was needed on the customer portal interface where this information was presented.
Unusual surfing by end users was viewable with just a few clicks in the AWN Customer Portal. The Customer Portal data view showed the IP address of the offending device, the sites it was surfing, and the amount of data that was being sent and received.
SANS simulated real world attacks and possible indicators of compromise and system compromise. Ransomware was detected within five minutes which included analysis to ensure it was not a false positive. Anomalous traffic was defined usinig a customized rule. The rule was set up completely by the Concierge Security Engineer, and the customer only had to communicate requirements. The AWN Sensor detected a compromised system with its build-in IDS capability. Having the IDS, packet and log collector all in one appliance gives Arctic Wolf the capability to correlate events quickly without dependency on any external tools.

Kiehl's has launched a new BB cream - the Actively Correcting & Beautifying BB Cream. While BB creams are no stranger to the market, and are starting to feel to me like a marketing fad that has overstayed its welcome (I've actually previously blogged about how BB creams mis-market themselves), nevertheless, it is good to see that even though I have a "meh" attitude to most of the BB creams on the market, along comes a BB cream that does manage to impress me on multiple counts. And so, I took it upon myself to share it with you guys!
The Kiehl's BB Cream is actually not too different from other BB creams in terms of appearance and feel, except that it is distinctly unfragranced. After trying out BB cream after BB cream that smelled of artificial floral scents, this unscented BB cream smells rather odd by comparison, but the scent is similar to other unscented products I've tried before. Like other BB creams I've tried, it feels like a thick liquid balm. It's actually really blendable when you rub it into your skin. Coverage is actually pretty good for a BB cream - I'd say about medium-ish coverage. It covers most minor blemishes and small discoloured spots, but anything major, and you'll need a concealer to layer under this product.
And then I began to rub it in, to see how the coverage and spreadability of the BB cream was. This is me rubbing the dollop of BB cream halfway - as you can see, it's spreading out and covering pretty almost a third of my arm area! Although it's a thick balm, it's not hard to spread.
Although I thought it was going to be too pink for my NC20 skin colour when I was blending it out, once it's blended into my skin, the colour match was actually fine, and matched my skin. The final texture was also pretty good - it was luminous, but it didn't have discrete specks with glitter, so your skin doesn't look like a disco ball gone wrong. As you can see from the photo below, the finish is also quite natural.
So, other than great application and colour, what makes the Kiehl's BB cream really stand out? For me, it's really the ingredients. I was told by one of the Kiehl's PR people that Kiehl's was slightly later to the game than other BB cream brands, not because they've been sleeping on the job, but because they wanted to have a well-formulated BB cream. And it is indeed very well-formulated - Kiehl's has managed to produce a BB cream with great texture, skin feel, coverage, and colour, but with a different range of ingredients than those typically used by other BB creams. And I do think this is one of the better BB creams I've looked at, ingredients-wise. Below, you can see the full ingredients listing.
The bulk of the ingredients are either emollients (dicaprylyl ether, polyglyceryl-4 isostearate) or sunscreen filters (homosalate, octocrylene, ethylhexyl salicylate), which you would expect in a creamy, SPF 50 product. Among the key ingredients, nothing struck me as being particularly pore-clogging or pimple-causing (no isopropyl myristate or anything like that). I liked that the multiple sunscreen filters cover a good range of UVA and UVB rays. I also liked that the product lives up to its marketing, and includes ascorbyl glucoside near the top of the ingredients list (so the product does indeed contain the Vitamin C advertised). I also liked the addition of silica - for me, products with silica tend to sit on my face in a nice way for a longer period of time. Unlike some other BB creams I've seen (which you'd know if you looked at my BB creams ingredients post), the Kiehl's BB cream doesn't actually contain mineral oil, or a lot of silicones. Silicones can be irritating to some skintypes, so I was glad to see that Kiehl's managed to formulate a BB cream that works and performs just as well as other BB creams on the market without the rampant silicone overuse found in other comparable BB creams.
As you can see, the colour match is actually pretty good - although it does lean a little to the pink side, once it's blended out it didnt' look as pink. I think it blended into my skin pretty well, and did a pretty good job of covering my acne scars (if you saw my skin in the Laura Mercier makeover post, you'll know I had some severe acne; it was gone by the time I wrote this review, but there were some scars). As you can see, the coverage is pretty good, not 100%, perhaps more like 75%, but it did look natural and not cakey. I did put a sweep of transparent powder over the look to set it, as I was going to be out for the entire day, and I didn't want excess shine on my face (by itself, the finish of the BB cream is definitely shinier). I found this combination worked well - with a little bit of powder on top, my makeup was pretty much set for the entire day.
So, would I recommend this product? Although I'm known (and sometimes pilloried) for my general disdain for BB creams, I'll make an exception for the Kiehl's BB cream. It's well formulated, less likely to break you out than some other BB creams, and has a fair amount of Vitamin C, and multiple sunscreen filters to offer broadbased UV protection. Also, it's pleasant to use, and works well, providing good colour, coverage, and texture. If you're looking for a BB cream that is well-formulated and still elegant to use, this will be up your alley. You can find out more about the BB cream here.
I like how it has SPF50. I haven't seen many BB Creams with higher SPFs (I need to wear at least 30 to go outside). I may try this out. Thanks for the review and heads up.
I definitely want to give this a try, thanks for the post.
Aww, unfortunately I myself am not too thrilled with the addition of silica--everyone and their mother is using it in their foundation and sunscreen nowadays, and my skin just hates it. At least with foundation there's mineral powder, but the sunscreen kills me! I'm having so much trouble finding one!
I really like that lipstick color on you!
Thanks for the reply! I know there's a difference between silica and silicones, but I appreciate your comment. There is silica in the ingredients list for this BB Cream (between the Ascorbyl Glucoside and Nylon-12), which is what prompted my comment. I see "silica" listed as an ingredient in a lot of liquid products nowadays, often with the usual -cone ingredients. While I agree that it is frequently in powder products, it is also present in liquids, too! :) Some of my frustration from my first comment actually comes from not being able to find an alternative because of how common silica is nowadays!
@Ciambella: Yes, looks like silica is also a common ingredient in most products - it can be a bit of trouble looking for products without silica! I hope you manage to find an alternative!
I have been eyeing this up for a while, it looks lovely on you! I wonder what it would be like on dry skins?! This looks gorgeous on you!
@Nikki: To be honest, I'm not too sure, since my akin ia pretty oily. But if you have had luck with previous BB creams you would probably have luck with this too. It does feel rather creamy, so it might be useful for dry skin.
Hi, just happened to browse through and i thought i should say this.. this product does not contain any UVA filter. Hence, it does not protect against UVA rays. you can google to verify the UV filters if you want.
@Anonymous: Thanks for pointing that out! Octocrylene does have some UVA protection but it is limited. I do agree a better formulation would also have a UVA filter. I'll be updating my review to reflect this.
I tried mine today and it was okie, I guess. Left alone, it looked TOO GREASY. So I put on MAC Blot Powder to mattify it. Then it looked kinda dry. Lol. So first impression was 'uhm'. Shall get more acquainted with it!
Hi, I would like to know if it has perfume? I cannot really tolerate any smell in creams... thanks !!!
@Adriana: There isn't much perfume in this product. It just smells unfragranced to me.

Teary Promise (Part 11)
Being in a foreign country for the first time, it suddenly occurred to me that reduced food, electricity, and business hours in light of the earthquake back in March, does not apply to here at all. Buying things using a currency I'm not used to has make me feel disoriented on whether the numbers on the price tag of an item is considered cheap or expensive. They said to divide a number by 100 from the yen as a rough guess, but seeing something that costs 800yen back home being labelled as 25 in that currency, which itself after currency conversion, is worth 650yen or US$9, is making me even more confused.
Waking up, having breakfast, preparing things, travelling to school, waiting for everyone to gather and brief, taking the train to the airport, having lunch, waiting for the plane to depart, duration of flight plus delays, timezone differences. All of this has made us tired from travel alone and lost track of how long we have been travelling. The sun had already set when we arriv…
570th post - Busy
I currently have an assignment that's to due quite soon, and most likely a test a week after. Also, I'm having a hard time thinking of what to write for it.
I am thinking of writing of part 11 of "Tearful Promise" (6th story), but nothing has actually been planned or written yet. I'll start doing it when I can.
Keep an eye on my twitter profile for updates, and the little things that indirectly affects me writing it. Updates for my blogs should have a #twitter hashtag.
About half a year has passed since the earthquake happened. Everything has started to become normal again, and the mess caused by the tsunami in affected areas mostly cleared up, though there are still shipwrecked ships and empty areas where destroyed houses used to stand. Only the roads, surviving buildings, and some trees, tells us where everything was. Electricity is gradually returning back to normal, though some energy conservation measures implemented since the earthquake are still visibly in place. Sadly, it seems as if the world has stopped caring about the incident itself.
There have been small earthquakes since then that were more frequent than usual, which might be possibly be and aftershock of an aftershock. There was a typhoon that nearly threatened to hit the already-damaged nuclear plant and scatter its radiation just recently, but it became weak enough to be not much of a threat when it arrived.
Some boys in school have started to talk to me often since the start of t…
Disorientated Feelings (Part 41)
Since I am quite close to Saeko's company, I could drop by there to ask for help, but the level of rivalry of Powell staff with Hatsuya is so great that the former would refuse to corporate with the latter. Me wearing an outfit with Hatsuya's logo on it being glaringly obvious and not knowing how to take it off kind of rules out heading there for help. They probably don't even give me a chance to explain myself.
Either way, I contacted Saeko to see if she's not busy. From the voices I heard in the background, Saeko seemed glad to use me as an excuse to get out of the situation she was in at the time I called her, though Saeko didn't say what she was doing at that time. Oddly, she said not to tell my husband about it yet.
When she saw me, she knew immediately knew that I had went to Mizuho and my discomfort with the clothes I couldn't take off. Apparently, I was wearing the rarely-seen Hatsuya Research uniform that non-Mizuho based staff would wear, which has a …
The closer I brought the friend to Takagi, the more nervous I got about how Takagi would react to it even though I have no involvement on how the friend became what he is like now that has the body to keep changing quite frequently without control. He currently looks and sounds like an office lady, and is unknown when the next transformation is, but an hour with an even number in it would be approaching soon.
Transformations frequencies varies between 2 to 100 hours, with the lower end being more common, always happens at the top of the hour, and the number of hours of these frequencies are always dividable by 2 without a remainder. That makes it easier to prepare for it, but preparing for a transformation that could happen between every 2 to 100 hours without knowing when exactly it would be can be quite stressful. Knowing exactly when it would be or, even better, not worrying about it at all, is less stressful.
In Memory of Steve Jobs
One of the greatest pioneers in shaping the world of information technology, Steve Jobs had helped changed the world that had span many decades.
He envisioned having computers that were user-friendly to people that have little knowledge on computers, and also have one that is small enough that would fit into people's homes. He also reinvented the music and mobile industry.

The Red Flag Group wrapped up an outstanding second day at the 2016 SCCE Compliance & Ethics Institute. The conference continued to provide excellent content for the more than 1,700 compliance professionals in attendance. Day three will be a half-day session followed by the SCCE certification exam, which will be taken by several employees from The Red Flag Group.
The second day began with three keynote speeches. Justice Department (DOJ) representative Bill Baer opened the morning's keynotes with remarks on what the DOJ considers 'meaningful cooperation' should constitute if it is to lead to a significant reduction in a financial penalty. Baer listed several specific factors that the DOJ considers when determining a company's level of cooperation. For every chief compliance officer or even general counsel in the audience, it was solid information to put into practice if one is ever faced with a regulatory violation.
The next keynote was on the sobering topic of human trafficking and modern slavery, with Bill Shepherd and Gwen Hassan. A former DOJ prosecutor, Shepherd walked the audience through legal requirements and potential penalties. Hassan meanwhile helped the audience understand how corporations can best respond by establishing appropriate compliance programmes and mechanisms.
The final keynote on day two was by Kristy Grant-Hart, author of 'How to be a wildly effective compliance officer'. She was able to translate her fire and passion for the compliance profession into concrete steps that a compliance practitioner can take to impact compliance in his or her organisation. It was an inspiring final keynote to this great conference.

NCSC Issues Warning About Smart Camera, Baby Monitors
All Tech News > category news Workspace

Internet of things security. 'Smart' security camera including baby monitors, need to be properly setup to avoid issues, warns NCSC
The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), part of the UK intelligence agency GCHQ, has warned about the dangers posed by 'smart' security cameras, including baby monitors.
The NCSC has published its advice on how best to setup these smart cameras, in order to avoid live feeds or images being accessed by unauthorised users.
This comes after a number of high profile cases. In December for example a video revealed every parent's worse nightmare, when the video showed a hacker talking to a young girl in her bedroom in the United States, via her family's Ring camera.
The NCSC is charged with overseeing the UK's cyber defences, ever since it was founded back in 2016. In October last year the NCSC warned that Russia, China, Iran and North Korea pose 'strategic national security threats to the UK.
But now it is issuing advice for consumers, with some advice about smart cameras.
"Live feeds or images from smart cameras can (in rare cases) be accessed by unauthorised users, putting your privacy at risk," it said. "This is possible because smart cameras are often configured so that you can access them whilst you're away from home."
"The problem arises because some cameras are shipped with the default password set by the manufacturer, which is often well-known or guessable (such as admin or 00000)," the NCSC warned. "Cyber criminals can use these well-known passwords (or other techniques) to access the camera remotely, and view live video or images in your home.
It advised householders to change the default device password to a secure one, and avoid the most commonly used passwords.
It also advised homeowners to "keep your camera secure by regularly updating it, and if available switch on the option to install software updates automatically so you don't have to think about it."
The NCSC also said that if a user does not need the feature that lets them remotely view camera footage via the internet, it recommend disabling it altogether.
But the GCHQ division also went further as it also urged consumers to check their router settings.
"Many routers use technologies called UPnP and port forwarding to allow devices to find other devices within your network," said the NCSC. "Unfortunately, cyber criminals can exploit these technologies to potentially access devices on your network, such as smart cameras. To avoid this risk you should consider disabling UPnP and port forwarding on your router – check your router's manual or the manufacturer's website for details about how to do this."
Manufacturer responsibility
One security expert said that manufacturers do also have some responsibility on making their smart cameras more secure.
"IoT breaches are on the rise," explained Will LaSala, senior director of global solutions at security and anti-fraud specialist OneSpan.
"Devices are being developed and integrated into society at such speed that users are often not aware of the security holes they can possess," said LaSala. "Originally, devices such as smart cameras and baby monitors were intended to increase safety and security, but they are now bringing unwanted visitors into peoples' homes virtually."
"Vendors who manufacture these IoT devices still have a long way to go to make their products fully secure and protect users from incidents like this," said LaSala. "Quick fixes in the way of SMS authentication are often added, but this simple protocol has been hacked previously in the banking industry and any other industry where it's been deployed."
"Security should be built directly into IoT vendors' platforms, as well as into third-party home routers and networking equipment to really start to reduce these breaches," he said. "Customers should also ask their IoT vendors the difficult questions of how and when they plan to properly protect their users to hold them to account."

Brentford v Chesham United
Women's Football News 17 Sep 2016
SSE Women's FA Cup - Road to the Final
Greater London League side Brentford play host to Chesham United of the Southern Region League.
Brentford Women's FC is a Chartered Standard Club and has been established since 1990 and still run by Amy and Roger Crook. The first team play in the Greater London Women's League Division One with the Development team representing the club in the Greater London Women's League Division Three South.
The club enjoys the support of the Brentford FC Community Sports Trust, as well as the Football Club itself. The team is sponsored by Irene Raveney, Andy Godfrey and Geoff Owen (Harper Woods).
The team is managed by Ryan Peters who is now in his second season and establishing himself well for the start of this one, whilst captain Lisa Grant is a long standing player who has been with the club for sixteen years.
"I cannot convey my gratitude enough for this young lady, a very loyal supporter and player," says Roger Crook. "Also, Peter Troth who gives us invaluable assistance on match days, and Amy Crook my daughter for all her help in running our club over the years.
"All our players have been most supportive and I would really like to thank them all and wish them well for the match."
Chesham United have steadied again after climbing to the heights of the FA Women's Premier League, and losing many of their players to WSL clubs. Developing a very young squad, the ladies soon again attracted some of the best talent locally into the first team, and welcomed back a few old faces to ensure they get the best experience under the guidance of Lisa Welling and Lee Glenister.
Formed in 1996, the following season the running of club was taken on by Sian Williams, Lisa Welling and Christine Thornton more by accident than planning. Like all new teams it was a struggle, but a link with Don Wright's Chesham Youth team in 1997 was very a wise move, Jess Wright - then just 14 - moved on to Chelsea. The team folded and left behind teenagers Di Killey, Catherine Sole, Dawne Stocks (now Campbell), and Cath Andrews all who are still playing or involved with the club. Immediately strengthened by these youngsters, Chesham's team progressed through the Southern Region League to become League and Cup winners in 1999-00 and 2000-01.
The 2001-02 season saw a step up to the South East Combination League where they finished a credible fifth place in their first season. The 2002-03 season saw a shift sideways to the South West Combination which saw a lot of miles having to be covered but the finishing position improved season on season, 5th, 4th and 3rd in the first three seasons. Miguel de Souza brought a new style of football to the team and although it took a while for the team to find their feet they continually finished in the top half of the league, but the players had set their sights on reaching the national league and Matthew Johnstone came into move the team forward and made an impact developing the young talent.
When Matt moved on, Lisa Welling moved back to the first team and brought in Ed Keeler to manage, finally the side was promoted to the Premier Division of winter football. However the loss of several key players was too big a bridge to cross and they were forced to withdraw from the FAWPL and compete in the Southern Region League once again.
This has proved to be a wise move for the club and last season they finished as runners-up in Division One as well as winning the Chairman's Cup, beating Team Solent in the Final. The new season in the Premier Division has started well with two opening victories and they are the early leaders.

The motives behind starting a company are endless. Some do it for the money, independence, passion and so on. Maybe one of the leading reason behind creating businesses is to get the chance of being ingenious, as well as having the opportunity to test your creativity and challenge your wit. New companies get started with a brand new concept and the knowledge of being capable of providing a different service. Originality is the x-factor every business should have. They know that people have requirements and they are capable of meeting those needs. Don't forget to give your clients what they need not just what they want. Provide them not just a product or a service but sell them your brand. Owning a company can be very complicated, though. It implies numerous challenges, hours of hard work and several ups and downs. You have to reach clients and generate enthusiasm within your products and services. It's a constant fight with making every potential client deciding to work with you and not any other organization. This is why promoting your company is easier said than done. There is too much competition and standing out is nearly impossible. Fortunately, there is a way to portray your business in a favorable light. Have you ever heard about online media coverage? Media can assist getting your message across to a broader audience. The results of a month can be done within days. If you're doing business, engaging with media will give you the results you always wanted. For advertising effectiveness, you should consider online media, such as online publications. These actions are how you can get online media coverage for your enterprise.
Readers are interested in only one thing: a common bond that brings us together. It doesn't matter if you're an ambitious businessperson or a talented designer, you need to learn how to communicate a story successfully. When you submit stories, you're precisely on the same page with the readers. You're telling them, that you understand what they're going through and that you value their experience. The thing is that writers don't care too much about products or services. If you're capable of understanding this concept, then you'll be able to take your company in front of massive audiences. When you're trying to persuade someone, it benefits to have storytelling skills. Keep your objective precise, a story exciting and linear and articulate correctly would help give the impression you wanted. If you can't, don't stress too much about it. These abilities can always be acquired. Practice and confidence are the keys to become an expert in any field, no exception in this example. Never forget that the content that you launch should engage the reader and relate to their needs and style of living, while at the same time reinforced the company's message and ethics. Understand that editors are always busy looking for the best of the best and they won't consider your story if it's not a great one. Communicate what you believe without forgetting about your audience. They are who you truly need to reach and inspired.
There is no denying that journalism has turned emotional. Society has changed a great deal in a couple of years and, implicitly, emotion has become the most important dynamic. This shift doesn't imply that you should be less new driven. Sometimes, it means that you have to adapt, so you won't be left behind. When striving to land online news coverage, you should bring forward content that provides information about current events. Ongoing situations appeal to everyone and give us the chance to create unique content. The most significant mistake that you can make is submitting articles that are focused entirely on sales. It had become too direct and straightforward. As a result, your readers are not believing it and has nothing to relate to. A story is a story, but it should state something. What you must do is provide journalists material that they can use and share. For this purpose, you should start thinking like a reporter. Adopt a set of mind that keeps creating content that hooks your public since the beginning and shares information that everyone will be talking about for days, luckily even months. You could take advantage of an existing story, but it's not recommendable.
To get the most out of online media coverage, make sure to blend it with your marketing campaign. In these days, we have access to a diversity of channels. Don't linger in only one, try to be present as much as you can and in most of them. All the tools are available to you, just make the best of it. To be even more precise, you should be using other channels than online publications. To get coverage for your business, you should consider websites. You do have a corporate web page, don't you? Nowadays, a company that has a site and a digital presence have a solid reputation, influence in their chosen field and better chances of achieving their goals. Include a media repository so that potential clients who want to find out more can check it out. Your website is your presentation card, make it accessible and accordingly to your purpose. It's advisable to include links to video and audio content. Mold it into your style, be unforgettable and clients won't slip easily through your fingers. Show everyone what you can do, show them you're the best option. Another idea you could incorporate is to ask journalists for permission to quote them in your advertising material. This action gives you credibility and of course relevance. Technology is evolving as well as the society we are living. Create your business's digital footprint in this high tech era that has just started.

The White House released a budget for fiscal year 2017 that proposes to spend a record $4.1 trillion and includes a number of initiatives such as more investment in cybersecurity for federal agencies and the levying of spectrum license user fees.
A line item for spectrum license user fees – which would apply to broadcasters, cable, satellite and other spectrum license holders – would net the government $4.8 billion over the next decade, with proposed fees totaling $225 million in 2017, and escalating annually to $550 million by 2020, where it would hold until 2026.
But this isn't necessarily a done deal: This spectrum fee has been removed during the budget debate process in years past; it did not find its way into the 2016 final budget.
The proposed budget also calls for a sizable uptick in spending on federal cybersecurity infrastructure via a new Cybersecurity National Action Plan. This addition would allocate $19 billion to upgrade cybersecurity infrastructure across government agencies, including $3 billion for an overhaul of federal computer systems to retire, replace or modernize antiquated IT infrastructure.
The proposed budget would raise taxes on the order of $2.6 trillion over the next 10 years.
Republican lawmakers expressed frustration over items in the proposal, which now heads to Congress for its consideration. The document, as it stands, is unlikely to be passed by the Republican-controlled Congress, though elements of the budget can be advanced without endorsing the entire proposal.

Juan Pablo Montoya bullish over IndyCar title as Graham Rahal gains
Juan Pablo Montoya believes he is "in good shape" for the IndyCar title run-in despite having his lead cut to nine points with just two races remaining
Aug 20, 2015, 10:20 AM
The Colombian has led the championship all season, but he has been outscored by Graham Rahal in each of the last four events to tighten up the points race.
However, with just races at Pocono and Sonoma remaining over the next two weekends, Montoya believes he will finish the year strongly.
"We're in good shape," he said. "We won at Pocono last year, and we should run pretty good going to these next races.
"You can't really know what's going to happen, but I think we'll be fine. Honestly I do feel we're going to be OK.
"We've done a really good job all year, like everybody else, had ups and downs, and we'll see what it brings."
With the Sonoma finale offering double points Montoya's team boss Roger Penske is prepared for a championship showdown, but he believes his team has the right man for the job.
"It's going right down to the wire," said Penske, who also has Helio Castroneves and Will Power still in contention.
"[Scott] Dixon is very good out there, and Rahal is on a bit of a roll right now.
"We just have to keep our head on, and Montoya is the kind of guy you want on your team when it comes down to a fight."
WHAT HIS RIVALS SAID
GRAHAM RAHAL (2nd, 9 points behind)
"I feel like my job is to stay close to Juan in Pocono, and if we can do that, we'll be in a pretty good spot come Sonoma. The double-points throws a huge curveball into the mix.
"The championship is right there, we're close, we feel like we're capable, and we're ready to capitalise on it."
SCOTT DIXON (3rd, 34 points behind)
"Obviously we'd like to be ahead going into Sonoma, but those chances are slim. For us, you're going to hope for a little bit of bad luck or a mechanical issue with Juan, but those are generally not seen too many times.
"We've been in this situation before, we've won a lot of races together, so you don't want to change things up too much."
HELIO CASTRONEVES (4th, 58 points behind)
"I'm excited. We've got to do something different, we've got to take chances if it's a strategy or a risk out there on the track.
"We've got to do something, and be aggressive to win the championship. I don't have much to lose."
WILL POWER (5th, 59 points behind)
"If you're in the position Montoya is in, you definitely feel the pressure, because sometimes it's unclear what you have to do to win the championship.
"If you're in the position I'm in now it's very clear: you have to win two races. Juan has won a championship before, so he knows how it goes."

By David Malsher-Lopez
Chip Ganassi Racing team was strong again in the Indianapolis 500, with poleman Scott Dixon and reigning champion Alex Palou leading almost three quarters of the race between them.

Could Mindfulness Be Used to Improve Purchasing?
The relationship between purchaser and supplier is generally one based on domination. Yet the cost of such aggressive relationships is high. In France, legal fees caused by disputes between suppliers and buyers cost companies 40 billion euros per year. Debt between companies hovers at around 600 billion euros and the average delay for billing is 73 days. To break away from this vicious circle, mindfulness offers companies a path to reset their relationships with purchasers and suppliers.
"Clients put a lot of pressure on their suppliers, and this tension reverberates down the entire value chain. It's a vicious circles that decreases the quality of products and services." says Hugues Poissonnier, a professor of strategy, management control and purchasing at Grenoble Ecole de Management.
The cost of such negative relationships is high. Small- and medium-sized French companies lose approximately 15 billion euros a year. Approximately 25% of bankruptcy filings can be attributed to cash flow problems, which are often exacerbated by late payments.
The buyer holds the key to change
Hugues, who is also the director of the IRIMA (Institute for Research and Innovation in Purchasing Management) and a member of the Mindfulness Chair, underlines the crucial role played by purchasers. Purchasers have the ability to change their perspective and strategy to work with suppliers who are the best in terms of quality. By doing so, they have the opportunity to create value through innovation instead of solely searching to slash prices.
Mindfulness to relieve tension
"Mindfulness offers a path to improve individual capacities, in particular in terms of emotions. By developing self-awareness, purchasers can be better prepared to face demands from within their company. Mindful meditation helps us focus on our emotions and identify where they originate." explains Hugues. As a result, purchasers improve their efficiency.
"Mindfulness helps purchasers make wise decisions in terms of their company's needs. Sales staff, engineers, production managers and other departments rarely manage to fully express their needs at the same time in a given bill of specifications. Purchasers are often capable of accurately fulfilling expressed needs. But they can't fulfill needs they don't know about." says Hugues.
Negotiating through cooperation
The second step available to purchasers is to rethink their approach to a negotiation. Instead of limiting a purchase based on restrictive technical specifications, a purchaser can chose to give a supplier a larger part of the order. "The key is to work as a team to ensure a flow of information and feedback. Thanks to a little bit of creativity, such an approach can provide economies of scale." explains Hugues.
"By adjusting internal needs, a company can also become a supplier's favorite client." adds Hugues. Such a change is of no small importance as it opens the door to working with the best suppliers.
Thinking in terms of cost margins
The final step is to think in terms of value. "Instead of choosing a supplier based solely on his or her price, the idea is to think about the overall cost. Simply choosing the cheapest supplier is an easy process. But you can increase overall margins when you think about the added value offered by a supplier. If a product costs more but also offers greater added value, then it will contribute to a company being able to sell its own goods or services at a higher price. It allows companies to defend a strategy based on excellence." says Hugues.
Strategic innovation to capitalize on purchasing
By putting purchasing into the heart of their strategy, companies are able to position themselves at the top-end of the market. ARaymond in Grenoble for example, has implemented a strategy that relies on added value and excellence. For the past couple years, the group has relied on an ethics chart to guide its purchasing.
In Lyon, Outillacier is a company that supplies materials and tools for the construction industry. The company made purchasing a central part of its strategy by refocusing on French suppliers and favoring a policy of paying higher prices for high quality goods.
Givaudan, a Swiss fragrance group, has developed privileged relationships with its international suppliers by launching local campaigns to support schools and organic farming. The company Les jus de fruits d'Alsace has invested heavily in the production of oranges in Brazil. As sugar cane plantations earn more, many farmers have been foregoing their orange farming. By investing in orange farming, the company not only supports its farmers, but also ensures access to one of its key resources.
