The Feature: Let's talk about the Tosca Effect, and how and why a crop of classic San Francisco restaurants — Schroeder's, the Square, Big 4, and others — have gotten new owners intent on modernizing and creating sustainable versions of the vintage restaurants.
The Review: Iyasare, Berkeley.
Thirst: Jon Bonné files on a new winemaking talent in Napa, who also happens to have an eye for the past: Rory Williams, a 29-year-old native who has started his own label, Calder. Williams describes it as a "way for me to make wines my parents don't make," but Bonné writes that it's also a "meditation on what Napa has done well in the past."
The Chronicle Recommends: Hearty, well-priced red wines for the table.
Seasonal: With all the wacky weather and scary drought stuff happening, it's anyone's guess as to what will be in the farmers' market from week to week, but here to make sense of it all is Tara Duggan, who reports that spring vegetables — green garlic, artichokes — are already showing up in markets, about a month ahead of schedule. Here are some recipes for Artichokes with Green Garlic Bagna Cauda, and Barley With Green Garlic-Kale Pesto.
Pairings: The best way to cook pork tenderloin just might be to fuse two tenderloins together, allowing for a nice even cook.

TOKYO (Reuters) - The Association of National Olympic Committees postponed their presidential election amid farcical scenes on Wednesday in the wake of Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah's decision to temporarily step down from the post because of an ongoing legal case.
The Kuwaiti has denied any wrongdoing and, without giving any further details, said the allegations made against him in a Swiss court were politically motivated.
Sheikh Ahmad has stood down from two Olympic roles because of the case and on Monday said he would be stepping aside from the presidency of ANOC, the umbrella body for National Olympic Committees which he has run since 2012.
The 55-year-old was the only candidate in the election for president so his decision to take temporary leave of the post meant the election would need to be adjourned.
Still president of the Olympic Council of Asia, he remains a powerful figure in sport and there was a clamour among some delegates to re-elect him in any case.
"This particular ship of ANOC has been sailing very smoothly so now it is not the time to abandon the captain," said Guyana's Olympic Committee President Kalam Azad Juman-Yassin during awkward discussions in the hall.
His Iraqi counterpart Raad Hammoudi agreed.
"We should stand up and fight against the attacks against one of the symbols of the Olympic movement," he said.
Sheikh Ahmad was eventually forced to return to the hall to plead with the delegates to agree to the adjournment.
The postponement was then approved to loud applause.
Fijian Robin Mitchell was also confirmed as senior vice-president and as such he will head up the organisation in Sheikh Ahmad's absence.
Sheikh Ahmad earlier made it very clear that he has no intention of permanently relinquishing his role at the ANOC.
"I decided to step aside for a while and to come back to you stronger, not only in my beliefs but with trust," he told delegates.
Sheikh Ahmad is a close ally of IOC President Thomas Bach and was among the German's supporters in the run-up to his election in 2013.

Team USA Squad Selected for ICC World Cricket League Division 3
By usacricketOctober 18, 2018 No Comments
USA Cricket has announced the squad to compete in ICC World Cricket League Division 3 in Muscat, Oman from November 7 through November 21. The timing of this announcement is to comply with the ICC's deadline for submitting team rosters.
To fortify the team's middle order for the all-important ICC event next month, some changes have been made to the 16-man squad that participated in the Cricket West Indies Super50 Cup in Barbados. Hayden Walsh Jr and Aaron Jones, American citizens and Barbados contracted players, are all-round inclusions and made themselves available based on the continued growth and development the athletes saw in the USA Cricket National Team program. Leg spinning all-rounder, Walsh, replaces Usman Ashraf while Jones and Alex Amsterdam are middle order additions to the team that won last month's ICC T20 Sub-Regional Qualifier in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Commenting on the team, USA Chairman of Selectors, Ricardo Powell, said: "It was clear to me, Coach and my fellow selectors that our middle order required strengthening and that is what we have done. Each inclusion has been on our radar of late and we felt it was the best decision for the team to win Division 3. For the third time in as many months, we were faced with some tough decisions at the selection table which highlights the talent pool and player enthusiasm to represent USA Cricket and their country. The omitted players for Division 3 are most certainly part of our future and Coach has extensive development plans in place for their benefit however, given the importance of this tournament, we decided to strengthen the middle order with current first-class experience."
USA Cricket Project Officer, Wade Edwards, said: "We are very excited about this ever-evolving squad and look forward to the future of USA Cricket. This pool of talent and the competition amongst positions will ultimately drive our performance standards and improve the team as a whole in advance of what is arguably the most important tournament in the history of the United States."
USA Head Coach, Pubudu Dassanayake, commented: "The chemistry within this team is truly something special and I believe this is one of the best Associate teams I have ever seen. We've been fortunate to have some of the new talent training with us in Barbados and they will be great additions to the team both on and off the field of play. The belief within this group is extraordinary and we know we are on the verge of something special and cannot wait for WCL3 to perform like we know we are capable of."
The team will have a short preparation camp in the United States in early November before travelling together to Oman.
Team USA squad:
Saurabh Netravalkar (C) (Marin 1, Northern California Cricket Association)

Sinus elevation is a widely described technique and long term results from the international literature show how this procedure is reliable through the time. Nevertheless, a proper selection of the clinical case, done by an accurate clinical and radiographic preoperative planning, is mandatory to reduce the risk of intraoperative and postoperative complications. The safest ways to carry out the technique, the choice of timing and materials will be highlighted with clinical cases as well as the management of the complications and their treatment.

Il GGG (Grande Gigante Gentile: nell'originale inglese, The BFG, The Big Friendly Giant) è un libro per ragazzi ambientato a Londra nel 1982 scritto da Roald Dahl. In Italia fu pubblicato per la prima volta da Salani nel 1987 nella collana Gl'istrici con il numero 1. Il GGG è una delle opere predilette di Roald Dahl.

Dal libro sono stati tratti due film: Il mio amico gigante (1989) e Il GGG - Il grande gigante gentile (2016).

Trama
Una notte, durante l'Ora delle ombre, il momento in cui tutti sono profondamente addormentati, non riuscendo a dormire, la piccola Sofia vide oltre la finestra dell'orfanotrofio in cui viveva, un gigante.

Il gigante era quattro volte più grande di un essere umano, e camminava verso di lei seguendo una particolare andatura. Sofia riuscì a osservare, guardandolo con più attenzione, che il gigante si fermava davanti ad ogni casa e sbirciava dalla finestra. Quando il gigante si fermò davanti alla finestra dei Goochey, che avevano un negozio di frutta e verdura in città, però, Sofia notò che il gigante fece un passo indietro e posò la valigia sul selciato, poi estrasse una sorta di barattolo di vetro che conteneva un liquido. Lo aprì e ne versò il contenuto nella campana della lunga tromba che teneva tra le mani. Introdusse lo strumento all'interno della finestra e soffiò nella tromba. Poi si chinò per riprendere la sua valigia. Sofia intravide nell'oscurità appena illuminata il suo volto e le sue enormi orecchie. Allora, spaventata, si rintanò nel suo letto, ma pochi minuti dopo vide un'enorme mano entrare dal davanzale. Il gigante la sollevò dal suo letto e la portò via con sé nel paese dei giganti.

Una volta arrivati in quel paese lontanissimo e inesistente su qualsiasi mappa geografica, Sofia temeva profondamente di essere mangiata. Il gigante prese Sofia che tremava di paura tra le mani, e la portò fino alla tavola, poi la osservò con attenzione mentre lei fece lo stesso con lui. Il gigante aveva orecchie grandi come le ruote di un camion che sembravano potersi muovere e girarsi a piacimento con cui era in grado di percepire ogni minimo sussurro dell'Universo. Dai racconti del gigante, Sofia capì che il cibo preferito da questa specie erano gli umani e che ogni popolo della terra aveva un gusto diverso: il popolo di Panama aveva un forte sapore di cappello, il popolo delle Isole Shetland lasciava un forte retrogusto di lana

Il gigante, attraverso i suoi racconti confessò a Sofia la sua disapprovazione per il modo che avevano i suoi simili di procacciarsi cibo. Lui, infatti, non avrebbe mai osato compiere atti del genere. Le rivelò, allora, il suo nome, che rispecchiava a pieno le sue caratteristiche. Lui era il GGG (il Grande Gigante Gentile). Il GGG amava portare sogni alla gente ed aveva rapito Sofia solo per evitare che la bambina facesse parola dell'esistenza di esseri terrificanti e altissimi come i giganti. Il GGG mangiava solamente cetrionzoli, dei tuberi grossi e bitorzoluti dal sapore sgradevolissimo. In compenso, al posto dell'acqua era solito bere, come tutti gli altri giganti, lo sciroppio, una bevanda dolcissima e squisita ma molto particolare. Le sue bollicine, infatti, non tendevano a salire verso l'alto, come quelle delle bibite effervescenti degli umani, ma si dirigevano, invece, verso il basso.

Un giorno, mentre i due si recavano ad acchiappare sogni, il passatempo preferito del GGG, dovettero affrontare il gruppo degli altri giganti (l'Inghiotticicciaviva, il Ciuccia-Budella, lo Strizza-Teste, il Trita-Bimbo, il Vomitoso, il Crocchia-Ossa, lo Spella-Fanciulle, il San Guinario e lo Scotta-Dito). Sebbene anche lui fosse molto alto, il GGG risultava di gran lunga più basso rispetto ai suoi compagni, in più la sua vita appartata e le sue singolari passioni lo portavano ad essere preso in giro e infastidito in continuazione. Per giunta, siccome gli altri giganti cominciavano a sospettare della presenza di Sofia poiché avevano sentito il GGG parlare a lungo nella sua caverna, quel luogo iniziava ad essere sempre meno sicuro per la bambina.

Dal momento che Il GGG era deciso a fermare i soprusi che gli altri giganti compivano ogni notte sugli umani, ma non sapeva come fare, Sofia decise di aiutarlo. Insieme escogitarono un piano che prevedeva la fabbricazione di un sogno da soffiare nella stanza della Regina d'Inghilterra per rivelarle l'esistenza dei giganti e gli atti terribili che compivano ogni notte. Il GGG, infatti, era un esperto collezionista di sogni, ne aveva di tutti i tipi e li conservava divisi per categoria, all'interno della sua grotta, nel tempo libero, invece usciva a catturarli. Ogni sogno poteva essere creato mescolandone di altri e soffiato nella stanza di qualsiasi umano. Per la Regina, i due decisero di creare un sogno in cui nove spaventosi giganti di venti metri galoppavano verso l'Inghilterra in piena notte e strappavano i bambini e le bambine dai loro letti per mangiarli.Il sogno si sarebbe poi concluso con una bambina seduta sul davanzale della finestra della Regina che le rivelava dove si nascondeva il Grande Gigante Gentile. Dopo essersi svegliata, la Regina avrebbe visto Sofia, in carne ed ossa, seduta sul davanzale, ripetere le stesse parole del sogno per farle comprendere che, se una parte del sogno era vera, anche tutto il resto poteva esserlo. Il GGG preparò la miscela per il sogno e la notte stessa partì insieme a Sofia per Londra. Arrivati al Palazzo della Regina, si intrufolarono nel giardino e, individuata la stanza della Regina grazie all'udito del GGG, soffiarono il sogno al suo interno. Poi, Sofia prese posto sul davanzale, mentre il GGG si nascose nel giardino ad aspettare.

Quando spuntò l'alba, Sofia sentì che qualcuno girava la maniglia e entrava nella stanza, era Mary che, come ogni mattina, serviva la colazione. La Regina, ancora scossa dall'incubo, le raccontò ogni dettaglio di quel tremendo sogno. Quando aprirono le tende per far entrare un po' di luce, la cameriera strillò, Sofia rimase paralizzata e la Regina basita, non appariva stupita ma piuttosto spaventata, poi le domandò come avesse fatto ad introdursi nel Palazzo. Sofia confermò con le sue parole, ciò che la Regina aveva visto nel suo sogno e invitò ad avvicinarsi il GGG. La Regina decise così di invitarli a colazione per ascoltare i loro racconti e indagare sulla questione. L'annuncio che Sua Maestà avrebbe fatto colazione entro mezz'ora nel salone dal ballo in compagnia di un gigante, provocò uno straordinario trambusto in tutto il palazzo. Mister Tibbs, il maggiordomo, fece di tutto per accontentare la Regina nel poco tempo concessogli.

Durante la colazione, oltre ad assaggiare squisite prelibatezze, il GGG conversò a lungo con la Regina delle abitudini dei suoi compagni giganti e delle loro terribili attività notturne. La Regina decise allora di convocare il Capo dell'Esercito e il Capo dell'Aviazione per elaborare insieme a loro una strategia, sconfiggere i giganti e salvare gli umani dai loro crudeli spuntini notturni. Il GGG suggerì, allora, di catturare i giganti mentre facevano il loro consueto riposino al pomeriggio. I soldati si sarebbero arrampicati su di loro e avrebbero legato loro mani e piedi, poi con l'ausilio degli elicotteri avrebbero legato i giganti dalla pancia e li avrebbero trasportati fino a Londra. La cattura avvenne con grande successo, i giganti furono trasportati in Inghilterra e gettati in un'enorme fossa. Furono dati loro da mangiare solamente cetrionzoli. Infine, il GGG su consiglio di Sofia scrisse un libro per raccontare la sua avventura. Lo mostrò alla Regina che lo lesse ai suoi nipotini e propose di farlo stampare. Il GGG per modestia, non volle che in copertina vi fosse il suo nome e vi inserì quello di un altro (Roald Dahl, l'autore del testo). Il libro che ci troviamo a leggere è proprio il manoscritto scritto dal gigante.

Scelte linguistiche
In inglese viene impiegato il termine "gobblefunk"  in riferimento alle particolari scelte linguistiche di Roald Dahl. Nel corso della sua carriera, infatti, l'autore britannico ha inventato più di 500 parole e nomi di personaggi. Molte di queste parole sono presenti nel testo "Il GGG". Spesso queste parole, terminano con vezzeggiativi o diminutivi divertenti. Il testo assume un tono ironico ed è ricco di termini inusuali e ironici. Nella traduzione in italiano del testo si è tentato di mantenere tali caratteristiche. Alcuni esempi di termini inconsueti sono:

 popolli della terra (i popoli della terra), nell'edizione in lingua originale human beans (human beings)
 cetrionzolo (per indicare un grande ortaggio, simile a un cetriolo ma bitorzoluto e disgustoso.
 sciroppio (una bevanda effervescente squisita)

Personaggi

Il GGG
Il GGG (Grande Gigante Gentile) è uno dei personaggi più amati da Roald Dahl. Viene citato in due storie dell'autore "Danny the Champion of the world" e, ovviamente "il GGG". Nella prima storia, il gigante è il protagonista di una storia della buonanotte raccontata a Danny dal padre.

Il GGG è senza dubbio il più piccolo delle creature del suo paese, ma anche il più gentile. Mentre gli altri ogni notte si affannano per divorare quantità spropositate di esseri umani, lui si dedica a catturare sogni e si ciba esclusivamente di cetrionzoli e sciroppio. Il GGG parla una lingua particolare fatta di ironiche storpiature.

TRAMA GGG
Sofia viene rapita dall'orfanotrofio in piena notte dal GGG. È una bambina molto coraggiosa e determinata. Dopo essersi allontanata dalla sua città nel cuore della notte, percorre un lungo viaggio verso il paese dei giganti, nascosta nel palmo della mano del GGG. Una volta arrivata in quella località sconosciuta, e dopo aver realizzato che il GGG non l'avrebbe mai mangiata, prende rapidamente in mano la situazione, con grande curiosità cerca di scoprire tutti i segreti di quel posto magnifico e assaggia cetrionzoli e sciroppio. Sofia escogita poi, un brillante piano per dare una lezione agli altri giganti, dopo aver condiviso un viaggio insieme al GGG nel paese dei sogni, e dopo averne ammirato la grandiosa collezione che il gigante possedeva.

ACM Awards 2011: Bethany Hamilton presents with AnnaSophia Robb
Carina MacKenzie April 3, 2011
When you look at the ordeal that surfer Bethany Hamilton endured, it makes a self-congratulatory awards show seem pretty silly. Still, we're glad that she's had the chance to get all glammed up and get the recognition she deserves now that "Soul Surfer" is premiering.
Hamilton, who has surfed competitively since childhood, was attacked by a shark in 2003. It ate her arm… but she got back on a surfboard, fearlessly, less than a month after the attack. Her experience is the inspiration for the new film "Soul Surfer," in which she's played by AnnaSophia Robb.
Hamilton did a lot of the surfing stunts for Robb in the film, for shots in which it would've been too difficult to digitally remove Robb's arm.
The girls got together on Sunday night to introduce their co-star Carrie Underwood at the ACM Awards in Vegas. Underwood was later seen in a promo for the film, in which she discussed Hamilton's religious faith. "I didn't know how much faith she had until I got into learning about her," Underwood says. "You genuinely get the feeling like she wouldn't change a thing. I think it's going to be impossible not to be impacted [by the film]."

With every paint job Scholars Edge Painting has committed to donating $10 to help fund cancer research. In addition to this most of our students participate in a company triathlon during the middle of the summer and raise money through pledge donations. Scholars Edge matches every dollar raised to a maximum of $5000.
In addition to these donations we also donate our services to paint a home at the beginning of the summer directly to help cancer research. Instead of the customer paying Scholars Edge, the customer writes the cheque directly to the Canadian Cancer Society. All paint for this project is donated by our good friends at DULUX paint.
Our participation in such a great event and commitment to such a great cause we feel helps foster corporate responsibility within our student leaders.


Data breaches are happening all the time; often they hit the news for a short while then they are replaced with the latest list of victims, so we thought we'd review a data breach from a year ago and look back at the total cost to the company involved. The data breach took place in October 2015 where a UK service provider (TalkTalk) was the victim of a DDoS attack and a SQL injection to extract the data.
TalkTalk suffered a data breach in October 2015 resulting in the theft of personal data. Full details of the loss are available in other articles, so there's no need to go into the technical details here.
There was a huge amount of publicity in the UK, during the first few days the situation and amount of data lost were not clear. In the end, 156,959 sets of personal details were stolen and 15,656 of these included bank account details. The company contacts each of its customers trying to reassure them and provided a free credit monitoring subscription for a year in case other data had also been lost and was misused.
In the following financial results, the company admitted to lost customers, direct costs to the business of £60,000,000 and a revenue drop of £80,000,000. A subsequent review of the total market showed that they had lost 4.4% market share.
On year later, in October 2016, TalkTalk was fined £400,000 by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) for the incident. The fine is the highest ever imposed by the ICO, with TalkTalk's lack of cybersecurity cited for the amount. The Information Commissioner, Elizabeth Denham, said that TalkTalk's "failure to implement the most basic cybersecurity measures allowed hackers to penetrate systems with ease". While in the eyes of some the fine may seem high, it's only £2.50 per impacted customer.
This breach can be examined further and there are key lessons all businesses should learn.
While the £400,000 fine is substantial, it's really just the tip of the iceberg in regards to how much the data breach actually cost. There were so many other financial repercussions which, to some other firms, may have been fatal. There was the 11 percent drop in share price, as well as the loss of 101,000 existing customers and potential future ones. All in all, when remediation costs are included too, TalkTalk calculated that the breach cost it more than £80 million in revenue. That's hardly pocket change.
When Carphone Warehouse purchased the UK subsidiary of Tiscali, the business was merged with TalkTalk, which it also owned at the time. Following the data breach, the ICO's investigation revealed that the hackers had gained access to the customer database through vulnerable web pages that had belonged to Tiscali. When companies join or split, how the action impacts IT systems must be managed, regardless of how insignificant they may seem. Systems will have different parentage, which can impact how effective a cybersecurity solution or process is, leaving potential access points unguarded.
It's no great surprise that older systems are more vulnerable to cyber attacks than newer ones. Yet, some businesses continue to rely on aging systems without patching or updating them, which is simply making things even easier for cybercriminals. The targeted Tiscali web pages had not been patched for three and a half years and the backend database is no longer supported by the supplier. When you consider the rapid pace of cyber threat evolution, that's the equivalent of leaving the windows and doors open. Businesses must ensure they are patching on a regular basis and setting aside time for major updates.
TalkTalk has and will continue to face scrutiny for its handling of the debacle, but one of the biggest criticisms is that it did not investigate numerous warnings that something was wrong. While it was the October 2015 data breach that made these particular headlines, TalkTalk customers had fallen victim to scams due to a previous breach and the regulator's investigation found there had been two previous SQL injection attacks in the previous three months but TalkTalk were not monitoring those particular webpages. Whether the company ignored the warnings or was simply ignorant, businesses should investigate any signs that an issue exists. This also includes red flags generated by cybersecurity systems. Almost a third of companies suffer from alert fatigue, due to their general frequency and numerous false positives, and do not investigate.
How a company communicates a data breach is vital in mitigating the potential damage to reputation. If customer data has been compromised, they need to be made aware of it, with the need even more pressing if bank details are taken. To ensure all stakeholders are reassured that the situation is being handled, firms must have a communication plan including draft email, letter and script templates in place so they can be issued immediately, unfortunately TalkTalk's initial responses fanned the flames due in part to lack of preparation as well as slow identification of the total data loss. While companies must be proactive with their communications, they must also have the necessary resources to deal with customers calling in. TalkTalk customers faced long holding times when ringing to find out more information, compounding anger further.
The ICO's fine is a record amount, but TalkTalk is fortunate that the breach took place before the EU GDPR comes into force in May 2018. The new regulation will see potential fines increase to four percent of global turnover or €20 million, whichever is higher, in TalkTalk's case this could mean a fine of around £73M, roughly the same amount as their profit in their last financial year.
The GDPR demands disclosure of all data loss incidents of unencrypted data; any company that experiences data loss, regardless of whether it's their fault or a third parties', will have 72 hours to disclose it to the regulators and have to inform data subjects "without delay", so being able to investigate data transfers and monitor cloud use, using a CASB, will become essential.
If a company were to take only one lesson away from TalkTalk's breach, it's that data is now the crown jewels of any business. Not only will it help drive sales and growth, but mishandling it can lead to severe fines and even closure. It needs to be treated with the utmost respect and that means understanding that cybersecurity is now a boardroom discussion. For too long it has been considered the remit of IT but, with so many areas where a business can become vulnerable, it must now be an enterprise-wide endeavour.
