This isn’t one of those police dramas where a suspect parcel arrives at the precinct and someone realises just in time that it may be a bomb – what we’re talking about here is open source software packages (though the impact on your application may be similar if you’re not sufficiently suspicious). Open source software is everywhere these days – which is great – but how can you be sure that you should trust the software you’ve downloaded to do what you want? The area of software supply chain management – of which this discussion forms a part – is fairly newly visible in the industry, but is growing in importance. We’re going to consider a particular example.
There’s a huge conversation to be had here about what trust means (see my article “What is trust?” as a starting point, and I have a forthcoming book on Trust in Computing and the Cloud for Wiley), but let’s assume that you have a need for a library which provides some cryptographic protocol implementation. What do you need to know, and what are you choices? We’ll assume, for now, that you’ve already made what is almost certainly the right choice, and gone with an open source implementation (see many of my articles on this blog for why open source is just best for security), and that you don’t want to be building everything from source all the time: you need something stable and maintained. What should be your source of a new package?
Option 1 – use a vendor
There are many vendors out there now who provide open source software through a variety of mechanisms – typically subscription. Red Hat, my employer (see standard disclosure) is one of them. In this case, the vendor will typically stand behind the fitness for use of a particular package, provide patches, etc.. This is your easiest and best choice in many cases. There may be times, however, when you want to use a package which is not provided by a vendor, or not packaged by your vendor of choice: what do you do then? Equally, what decisions do vendors need to make about how to trust a package?
Option 2 – delve deeper
This is where things get complex. So complex, in fact, that I’m going to be examining them at some length in my book. For the purposes of this article, though, I’ll try to be brief. We’ll start with the assumption that there is a single maintainer of the package, and multiple contributors. The contributors provide code (and tests and documentation, etc.) to the project, and the maintainer provides builds – binaries/libraries – for you to consume, rather than your taking the source code and compiling it yourself (which is actually what a vendor is likely to do, though they still need to consider most of the points below). This is a library to provide cryptographic capabilities, so it’s fairly safe to assume that we care about its security. There are at least five specific areas which we need to consider in detail, all of them relying on the maintainer to a large degree (I’ve used the example of security here, though very similar considerations exist for almost any package): let’s look at the issues.
- build – how is the package that you are consuming created? Is the build process performed on a “clean” (that is, non-compromised) machine, with the appropriate compilers and libraries (there’s a turtles problem here!)? If the binary is created with untrusted tools, then how can we trust it at all, so what measures does the maintainer take to ensure the “cleanness” of the build environment? It would be great if the build process is documented as a repeatable build, so that those who want to check it can do so.
- integrity – this is related to build, in that we want to be sure that the source code inputs to the build process – the code coming, for instance, from a git repository – are what we expect. If, somehow, compromised code is injected into the build process, then we are in a very bad position. We want to know exactly which version of the source code is being used as the basis for the package we are consuming so that we can track features – and bugs. As above, having a repeatable build is a great bonus here.
- responsiveness – this is a measure of how responsive – or not – the maintainer is to changes. Generally, we want stable features, tied to known versions, but a quick response to bug and (in particular) security patches. If the maintainer doesn’t accept patches in a timely manner, then we need to worry about the security of our package. We should also be asking questions like, “is there a well-defined security disclosure of vulnerability management process?” (See my article Security disclosure or vulnerability management?), and, if so, “is it followed”?
- provenance – all code is not created equal, and one of the things of which a maintainer should be keeping track is the provenance of contributors. If a large amount of code in a part of the package which provides particularly sensitive features is suddenly submitted by an unknown contributor with a pseudonymous email address and no history of contributions of security functionality, this should raise alarm bells. On the other hand, if there is a group of contributors employed by a company with a history of open source contributions and well-reviewed code who submit a large patch, this is probably less troublesome. This is a difficult issue to manage, and there are typically no definite “OK” or “no-go” signs, but the maintainer’s awareness and management of contributors and their contributions is an important point to consider.
- expertise – this is the most tricky. You may have a maintainer who is excellent at managing all of the points above, but is just not an expert in certain aspects of the functionality of the contributed code. As a consumer of the package, however, I need to be sure that it is fit for purpose, and that may include, in the case of the security-related package we’re considering, being assured that the correct cryptographic primitives are used, that bounds-checking is enforced on byte streams, that proper key lengths are used or that constant time implementations are provided for particular primitives. This is very, very hard, and the job of maintainer can easily become a full-time one if they are acting as the expert for a large and/or complex project. Indeed, best practice in such cases is to have a team of trusted, experienced experts who work either as co-maintainers or as a senior advisory group for the project. Alternatively, having external people or organisations (such as industry bodies) perform audits of the project at critical junctures – when a major release is due, or when an important vulnerability is patched, for instance – allows the maintainer to share this responsibility. It’s important to note that the project does not become magically “secure” just because it’s open source (see Disbelieving the many eyes hypothesis), but that the community, when it comes together, can significantly improve the assurance that consumers of a project can have in the packages which is produces.
Once we consider these areas, we then need to work out how we measure and track each of them. Who is in a position to judge the extent to which any particular maintainer is fulfilling each of the areas? How much can we trust them? These are a set of complex issues, and one about which much more needs to be written, but I am passionate about exposing the importance of explicit trust in computing, particularly in open source. There is work going on around open source supply chain management, for instance the new (at time of writing Project Rekor – but there is lots of work still to be done.
Remember, though: when you take a package – whether library or executable – please consider what you’re consuming, what about it you can trust, and on what assurances that trust is founded.
One thought on “Do I trust this package?”


Below are some fun and mind-boggling facts I gathered to give you a glimpse of why Formula 1 is considered the pinnacle of Motorsport:
1- Formula 1 cars are made up of 80,000 components, if they were assembled 99.9% correctly; they would still start the race with 80 things wrong.
2- A Formula 1 car’s cockpit is so tight that it requires the driver to remove the steering wheel in order to get in or out of it.
3- The drivers will typically change gear up to 2,800 times per Grand Prix. At circuits like Monaco, this number can increase to 4,000 times.
4- Normal road car tyres last 60,000 to 100,000km. F1 tyres are designed to last 90 to 120km.
5- When a Formula 1 driver hits the brakes, he experiences deceleration forces comparable to a regular car driving through a brick wall at 300km/h.
6- Formula 1 brake discs can exceed temperatures of 1,000°C.
7- During a race, the average temperature in the cockpit will reach 50 °C.
8- Once a Formula 1 car is traveling over 160 km/h, it can generate enough downforce to equal its own weight, which means it can actually hold itself to the ceiling of a tunnel and drive upside down.
9- In a street course race like the Monaco, the downforce provides enough suction to lift drain covers. Before the race all of the manhole covers on the streets have to be welded down to prevent this from happening.
10- A Formula 1 driver burns an average of 600 calories per grand prix and loses four kilograms in weight due to prolonged exposure to high G-forces and temperatures.
11- There hasn’t been a number 13 Formula 1 car since 1976 due to wide belief that the number is bad luck.
12- The refueling hose used in F1 can supply 12 liters of fuel per second. This means it would take just 4 seconds to fill the tank of an average 50 liter family car.

ABC News(WASHINGTON) — Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is heading to the White House Monday morning with the expectation that he will be fired, sources told ABC News.
The news came on the heels of reporting that at a May 2017 meeting between Rosenstein and then-acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, Rosenstein suggested that McCabe or others wear a wire when speaking with the president, according to memos McCabe made of the conversation, sources familiar with them told ABC News. The meeting took place a week after President Donald Trump had fired James Comey as director, the sources said.
Additionally, sources told ABC News that, according to the memos, Rosenstein told McCabe he could recruit members of the president’s Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office for being unfit. Rosenstein believed he would be able to persuade Attorney General Jeff Sessions and then-Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly to sign on, according to the sources.
After Comey's firing, ABC News previously reported that Rosenstein was so upset with the White House for pinning Comey’s dismissal on him that he was on the verge of resigning.
Rosenstein remained on the job and a week later assigned Robert Mueller as special counsel to look into allegations that the Russian government tried to influence the 2016 presidential election.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from the Russia probe early last year.
The White House, as of Friday evening, had not commented specifically on the story about the May meeting.
The Office of Special Counsel declined to comment on questions about Rosenstein's potential departure.
McCabe on Monday expressed concerns about the news and its possible implications for the Russia probe.
"There is nothing more important to the integrity of law enforcement and the rule of law than protecting the investigation of Special Counsel Mueller. I sacrificed personally and professionally to help put the investigation on a proper course and subsequently made every effort to protect it," McCabe said in a statement. "To be clear, I had no role in providing information of any kind to the media stories about events following Director Comey's firing. If the rumors of Deputy AG's Rosenstein's departure are true, I am deeply concerned that it puts that investigation at risk."
Trump, speaking at a rally in Springfield, Missouri, once again attacked his Justice Department.
"Look what's being exposed at the Department of Justice and the FBI," the president told a packed house Friday night. "You have some real bad ones. You see what's happening at the FBI – they’re all gone, they’re all gone. But there’s a lingering stench and we’re going to get rid of that too."
Rosenstein issued a second statement not long after the president spoke.
“I never pursued or authorized recording the President and any suggestion that I have ever advocated for the removal of the President is absolutely false," Rosenstein said.
Trump has repeatedly called the Russia investigation a "Witch Hunt" and asserted he has done nothing wrong. He does not, however, have direct authority to fire Mueller — that authority belonged to Rosenstein and now could belong to Noel Francisco, the solicitor general.
Rosenstein was confirmed as the second highest ranking official in the Justice Department, with wide bipartisan support, just over a year ago.
But Rosenstein’s name was in the headlines since just weeks after he began his new role at the Department of Justice after reports that he signed off on an FBI raid of the home and offices of Trump’s longtime former personal attorney Michael Cohen.
The raid, which was connected to the special counsel’s investigation, was approved by Rosenstein, who has overseen the investigation since Sessions recused himself.
The president called the raid “an attack on what we all stand for” and a “disgrace.”
The president later tweeted that Rosenstein was “conflicted” in his role supervising the investigation.
In the months leading up to Rosenstein’s firing, Republicans and Democrats called for legislation to protect the investigation led by Mueller. Many Republicans — including those close to the president — publicly warned against firing Mueller or Rosenstein.
"It would be a mistake and there would be consequences that the president would come to regret," said Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who dined with President Trump and other GOP leaders in April at the White House.
That same day at a news conference, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan said that he’d received "assurances" that Trump wouldn't fire Rosenstein or Mueller.
But Joe diGenova, a former federal prosecutor who was in discussions to join Trump’s legal team, said earlier in the week that he supported the decision.
"I would fire Rosenstein in a New York minute; without any question," diGenova told ABC News’ Jonathan Karl and Rick Klein on the “Powerhouse Politics” podcast earlier this year.
“Rod Rosenstein is so incompetent, compromised and conflicted that he can no longer serve as the deputy attorney general,” DiGenova said in an appearance on Fox News’ ‘Hannity’ earlier this year.
Before becoming deputy attorney general, Rosenstein was the longest-serving U.S. attorney, serving in Maryland. Rosenstein served throughout both President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama’s administration's, holding the position for 12 years.

|Daivasthana created at Bombe Mane to house Navadurga|
This idea of worshipping divinity as feminine has been well documented in Vedas and over centuries has spread far and wide in the sub-continent. According to Devi Mahatmya, nine manifestations of devi Durga are known as Shailaputri, Brahmacharini, Chandra Ghanta (Chanda Khanda), Kushmanda, Skandamata, Katyayini, Kalaratri, Maha Gauri and Siddhidatri (Siddhidayini) and are collectively called Navadurga. Each of them is worshipped on different nights of Navaratri.
|Shailaputri Brahmacharini Chandakhanda|
|Kushmanda Skandamata Katyayini|
|Kalaratri Mahagauri Siddhidayini|
Based on the iconography as suggested in the encyclopedic Sritattvanidhi, Navadurga figures have been created in jackfruit wood by Pradeep Gudigar of Kundapura. Rajesh Acharya of Udupi has casted bronze masks in traditional lost wax process. Udupi artist Purushotham Adve's acrylic on canvas depict masks and other aspects of bhutaradhane. Palimar's Venkataramana Kamath has crafted masks, scimitars and daiva figures in clay. A beautiful pillared sanctum has been created by Srikanth Sharma of Srirangapatna to house these Navadurgas. Padmanabha Pambada and his assistants have come all the way from Palimar to decorate the diorama with traditional ani ornamentation using parts of the sacred coconut and areca trees and embellishing them with floral patterns and mango leaf festoons.
This tradition of veneration is unique to the coastal strip of our state. Hundreds of garadis and daivasthanas are spread across the areas populated by Tuluvas from Sullia to Baindur.
This is an endeavour of Bombe Mane to showcase little known traditions associated with the all important devi worship. This year's Navadurga worship has been presented in traditional Tulu folk idiom.This unique flavour of Tuluva land is sure a feast for senses.

Dolls as playthings is a universal phenomenon. But in some ancient cultures, across the globe, they are also venerated and propitiated for different reasons. In India, several regions have unique traditions associated with doll worship like - Bhutaradhane of coastal areas of Karnataka, Rati Manmatha worship of Hubli-Dharwad, Bombe Masti worship and Koggatthi dolls of North Kanara and Ayyanar worship prevalent in Tamilnadu.
Tulu speaking people of coastal Karnataka worship Bhutas, or spirits in the form of brightly coloured wooden dolls. The object of their worship are animals, folk heroes, demi gods and gods. Tall figures of bhutas or daivas hewn out of jackfruit wood (Artocarpus heterophyllus), painted bright red all over and having huge unblinking eyes captivate the imagination of onlookers. These massive idols stand guard in sanctified sanctuaries or 'daivasthanas'. Believers celebrate the ideals like innocence, honesty, sacrifice and courage of common men and women whom these figures represent, and hence are venerated.
This year Ramsons Kala Pratishtana has brought a slice of South Canara to Bombe Mane. Navadurgas in the form of wooden daiva figures of Tulu folk art have adorned the display section in divine majesty. These nine goddesses - Shailaputri, Brahmacharini, Chandra Ghanta (Chanda Khanda), Kushmanda, Skandamata, Katyayini, Kalaratri, Maha Gauri and Siddhidatri (Siddhidayini) - manifested on nine successive nights of Sharannavaratri to defeat the devious Mahisha and scores of his commanders; they are worshiped across India. In Tuluva tradition, the lore associated with the origin of these goddesses is different. According to it, nine manifestations of goddess Durga Parameshwari are called Jumadi (Dhumavati), Lekkasiri (Rakteshwari), Chandi, Chamundi, Kanneshwari, Durgi, Mari, Mahankali and Komala Kumari.
Artists, Pradeep Gudigar of Kundapura, Rajesh Acharya and Purushotham Adve of Udupi, and Venkataramana Kamath of Palimar have brought alive the dolls and other accessories for this unique display. Padmanabha Pambada of Palimar and Srikanth Sharma of Srirangapatna have inricately decorated the display area in authentic 'daivasthana' style.
Apart from this special display, Bombe Mane has the choicest dolls lovingly selected from across India. Traditional clay dolls, wooden Ambari procession sets, Mahishasura dolls, miniature kitchen sets in brass, wood and clay, doll sets of Ramayana and Mahabharata, miniature animals, birds and fish in wood, Raja Rani dolls in brass, wooden doll house, doll house furniture in wood, papier machie dolls, costume dolls, lathe turned lacquerware dolls and toys, plaster of paris dolls of various deities and saints, etc., are among thousands of dolls on display.
Each one of these dolls are waiting to tell you their story and fire the imagination of you and your little ones. Come, take home the innocence of dolls and their loving embrace.
Welcome to Bombe Mane.

"The DASH diet: the weight-loss plan approved by doctors. When doctors devised an eating plan to fight high blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes, weight loss was an added bonus. An eating programme devised by doctors to fight high blood pressure has become the latest weight-loss phenomenon and named America's healthiest diet two years in a row." - from the Weekend London Times
Hi Mel, Assuming that your ranch dressing doesn’t have sugar added, you don’t need to worry too much about limiting it, but within reason. This is my homemade ranch dressing recipe, which has 0.9g net carbs per 2-tbsp serving. It would be hard to find a store bought one with much less than that, even though some round anything less than 1g down to 0g, which isn’t truly accurate. Also, keep in mind that if weight loss is your goal, some people find that too much dairy can cause a stall. Finally, make sure you aren’t using all your “available” carbs on ranch dressing – have it with some low carb veggies!
Unsurprisingly, the results showed that nothing had happened to the weight of the women receiving calcium or the placebo. However, the group which took the multivitamin lost more weight – about 3 kg more – and improved their health markers. Among other things, their basal metabolic rate (the rate at which the body burns calories when at rest) increased.
The fad military diet consists of low-calorie, odd food pairings such as bun-less hot dogs with banana, carrots, and broccoli. “Any diet like the military diet that severely limits the amount of calories you consume or eliminates one or more entire food groups puts any individual at risk for nutrient deficiencies,” says Kyle. “This can be more harmful than holding onto those 10 extra lb you’re trying to lose.” (32)
If you want to give the DASH diet a try, you're in luck: It works for everyone, according to Gorin. And since it involves eating the healthiest foods around and limiting the bad stuff, there aren't any cons. Plus, sticking to it won't just help you lose weight, it will also help keep your "heart health, blood pressure levels, and cholesterol levels" in check.
Having tempting, unhealthy foods in your home is one of the biggest reasons for failure when starting any diet. To maximize your chances of success with the keto diet, you need to remove as many triggers as you can. This crucial step will help prevent moments of weakness from ruining all your hard work.If you aren’t living alone, make sure to discuss with your family or housemates before throwing anything out. If some items are simply not yours to throw out, try to compromise and agree on a special location so you can keep them out of sight.
Here’s what we do know: The keto diet may be useful in treating symptoms of epilepsy, a seizure disorder. “The use of keto in treating epilepsy has the most evidence,” Angelone says. One study conducted by Johns Hopkins Medicine, for example, followed epileptic patients on the keto diet and found that 36 percent of them had a 50 percent reduction in seizures after three months on the diet, and 16 percent were seizure-free. However, experts aren't entirely sure why the keto diet has this affect, she adds.
In her book, Susan highlights one of the major problems with dinner time today: quality time. Does everyone else remember when dinner time was family time? When we would all sit down together, share our day, talk, laugh, and leave when the meal was done? Susan and I shared our childhood dinning experiences when we discussed her call for embracing the the Mediterranean lifestyle — incorporating exercise, relaxation, and family meals back into our daily routines. This book is looking for someone who is looking to make a lifestyle choice. The way that you eat, sitting down with your families at the dinner table. No more meals on the go, no more meals with the TV. I wanted to bring back the importance of food in our households,” noted Susan.
The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, or DASH, diet has been consistently ranked by US News & World Report as a top diet for heart health and weight loss, and it’s no surprise why. Unlike fad diets that call for extreme calorie or food-group restrictions without scientific evidence that supports their efficacy, the DASH diet involves making manageable dietary changes that are flexible and rooted in proven nutritional advice.
The keto diet did jump considerably in one specific category, however: This year it tied with several other diets for No. 2 in Best Fast Weight-Loss Diets (after the HMR Diet, a commercial plan that replaces most meals with pre-packaged nutrition bars and shakes), up from No. 13 last year. “Yes, you can do this for quick weight loss,” says Dr. Katz, “but I wouldn’t recommend it.”
With the keto diet, your body converts fat, instead of sugar, into energy. The diet was created in 1924 as a treatment for epilepsy, but the effects of this eating pattern are also being studied for type 2 diabetes. The ketogenic diet may improve blood glucose (sugar) levels while also reducing the need for insulin. However, the diet does come with risks, so make sure to discuss it with your doctor before making drastic dietary changes.
That’s because the DASH Diet has been proven to work, says Reshmi Srinath, M.D., an assistant professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. One study found that people who followed the DASH Diet had lower blood pressure and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels than those who consumed a typical American diet or an American diet infused with extra fruits and veggies.
Sleep enough – for most people at least seven hours per night on average – and keep stress under control. Sleep deprivation and stress hormones raise blood sugar levels, slowing ketosis and weight loss a bit. Plus they might make it harder to stick to a keto diet, and resist temptations. So while handling sleep and stress will not get you into ketosis on it’s own, it’s still worth thinking about.

Greek clubs and bars are being randomly tested to stop British tourists being served potentially lethal drinks laced with industrial spirits.
Tourist ministry official Sophia Nova said: "We may talk a lot about the attitude of British tourists and their excessive drinking but often it's the alcohol that's at fault."
The toxic cocktails - bombs - are thought to have triggered the death of Matthew Cryer, 17, from Sheffield, in Zakynthos, last month.
Doctors said the drinks act like a "small bomb that goes off in the brain".
Ms Nova said: "If we don't solve this problem and get rid of bombs, Greece's image will be tainted."
Police are also clamping down on rowdy, drunken young Brits with scores arrested on Crete this week.

A Gold Cup in Canada? We can but dream
The 2013 Gold Cup showed why the US is the obvious choice to keep hosting the confederation championship, with ticket sales relying on Central American and Caribbean communities across the US. The tournament is held every 2 years, though, with every other version a ‘B’ Gold Cup, so why not spread one around? BMO Field in Toronto is one of the many CONCACAF venues that could host a Gold Cup group.
It just makes sense to keep playing the tournament at American stadia – there’s guaranteed interest for almost every game, from Belize and Haiti to the usual sellout for a US-Mexico final. There might be something to be said for diluting the product, though, and CONCACAF could use of the ‘B’ Gold Cups to spread some group games around. With that in mind, I’ve come up with some proposed setups for rotating it around. It’s unlikely these scenarios would be considered even by 2017, but each one is ready to go:
There have been rumours in the past that Canada would host some Gold Cup group games, and that seems the most likely option for a CONCACAF brass who are wary of changing a successful formula. The CSA could host the entire tournament, though. They staged the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup and are set for the Women’s World Cup in 2015.
Group 1: Vancouver (BC Place, 21 000 capacity, expandable to 55 000)
Group 2: Toronto (BMO Field, 22 453 or Rogers Centre, 47 568)
Group 3: Montreal (Stade Saputo, 20 521 or Stade Olympique, 66 308)
Other options: Edmonton (Commonwealth Stadium, 60 000), Winnipeg (Investors’ Group Field, 33 423), Ottawa (Frank Clair Stadium, 24 000)
Mexico has form with major tournaments, having hosted the World Cup in 1970 and again in 1986. Estadio Azteca in Mexico City has held Gold Cup games before, including the final in 1993 and 2003, but the country has the stadia to host more:
Guadalajara (Estadio Omnilife, 49 900)
Mexico City (Estadio Azteca, 105 000)
Torreón (Estadio Corona, 30 000)
Tijuana (Estadio Caliente, 21 000)
Puebla (Estadio Cuauhtémoc, 49 200)
I know it’s pure fantasy at this point, but Panama could be rewarded for their Gold Cup record with co-hosting duties alongside Costa Rica in the future. They share a border and each has a refurbished or new national stadium, but there’s no reason you couldn’t add other host cities throughout Central America.
Group 1: Panama City (Estadio Rommel Férnandez, 29 000)
Group 2: San José (Estadio Nacional, 35 000)
Group 3: San José (Estadio Ricardo Saprissa, 23 112)
The Caribbean worked together to host a Cricket World Cup in 2007, and a regional co-hosting bid is their best bet in this hypothetical scenario. Here are some possible host cities:
Kingston, Jamaica (Independence Park, 35 000)
Port of Spain, Trinidad (Hasely Crawford Stadium, 27 000)
Mayagüez, Puerto Rico (Mayagüez Athletics Stadium, 12 000)
St. John’s, Antigua (Antigua Recreation Ground, 12 000)
Fort-de-France, Martinique (Stade d’Honneur, 16 300)

The 2015 Driving Licence changes
Since 8th June 2015 the paper counterpart to the photo-card driving licence is no longer valid and will no longer be issued or updated. Therefore it leaves many employers’ questioning how they will check their employee’s driving details. However, don’t panic help is at hand – check out this easy guide to ensure you stay compliant!
For those who obtained their driving licence prior to the photo-card in 1998, your paper driving licence is still legal however like the paper counterpart this will no longer be updated. As a result this leaves both tools for checking your employees or workers driving details unreliable…
Why check your driver’s details?
As an employer you have legal duty of care, not only to your employees, but other road users when workers are driving on company business or are authorised to use company vehicles.
Your fleet insurance will require you to check, as a minimum, your employees driving status at regular intervals (necessary as part of a risk assessment) assessing such information as:
- The driver holds a full and valid driving licence for the type of vehicle they are to drive
- That the licence details are accurate and up to date
- Whether a driver is still within their two year probationary period
- Any endorsements or disqualification
As a result, it is essential to have robust procedures in place to ensure all your drivers are legal and capable of driving on your behalf. Avoidance will lead to a serious breach in your legal duties of care and possesses risk of corporate and personal prosecution. Remember: your duty of care is equal for all drivers using your fleet.
How can you comply with these legal duties?
- Have a written procedure based on the law and risk assessments relating to your operations, use this as your check list and could in turn be condensed and provided within the Employee Handbook
- Assess whether driver’s are acknowledging your procedure this can be done through the procedure being readily available to employees and them signing that they have read, understood and will adhere to the procedure
- At regular intervals check their driving license, ensure the vehicle is safely maintained and measure the overall capability of the driver
How will you now check licenses?
In order to check licenses you will now use what is called ‘Real Time’ licence checking. Due to changes to your licence such a penalty points, will now be recorded electronically therefore no offences will appear on any paper licence or counterpart so neither form of the licence will now provide accurate information about any driving endorsements or changes. Information will now be held by the DVLA, and can be viewed online here or alternatively by phone or post.
Although the free online option is particularly less time consuming, you must note that it is a criminal offence to obtain personal information without permission, therefore to enable you to legally access such information you employee will need to create a licence ‘check code’ enabling you to share their personal details. This code is valid for 21 days.
It is also important to note that this service is only for UK licenses and cannot be used for those issued outside of the United Kingdom. This will mean that you will require a second procedure to check such employees and remain legally compliant.
To obtain a ‘check code’ your employees will need:
- Driving Licence number
- National Insurance (NI) number
- Postcode on their driving licence
If your driver is unable to generate a code online then they can call 0300 083 0013 and the DVLA will provide them with a code for you.
Alternatively, the driver can call the DVLA on 0300 790 6801 and leave permission for their driving record to be checked verbally by a nominated person within your organisation. You can then call DVLA on 0906 139 3837 (51p per minute) to check the driver’s details you’ve recieved their permission.
Once you have all the above (check code, driving licence number, NI number and postcode on the driving license) you can view the details of the driving licence online.

The First Aberdeen bus operation has a new man at the helm.
David Phillips, who has been with transport giant FirstGroup in a variety of roles since he joined it as a graduate recruit in 2012, is now steering the bus fleet in its home city as managing director.
He takes over from Duncan Cameron, who is joining road transport and logistics company ARR Craib as performance director in the new year.
First Aberdeen transports about 50,000 people a day on its 175 buses. The business employs more than 500 people.
Mr Phillips will be in the firing line for disgruntled passengers if buses do not run on time, fares go up or routes are cut.
His past roles with FirstGroup include spells in Yorkshire, Staffordshire and more recently Glasgow where he was a general manager responsible for four bus depots.
Dave Alexander, regional managing director for First UK Bus, said: “I’m delighted to confirm David’s appointment as new managing director for First Aberdeen.
“He’s already shown a real commitment and passion for customer service at First Glasgow and I’m confident his customer-led approach will build on the many successes Duncan Cameron and his team have achieved over the last few years in the Aberdeen business.”
Mr Phillips, who hails from Grantown, said: “I am very much looking forward to the challenge of taking over the reins at First Aberdeen.
“I’m joining a fantastic team, with a strong track record of success.
“My job is to keep up the momentum and continue to improve our services.
“I want to encourage more people to travel with First Aberdeen by delivering quality, value for money bus services.”
He will take up his new role on Monday, January 12.

About 100,000 documents from the archives of Joseph Stalin and the Communist Party of the Soviet Union became available to the general public. The legendary leader is presented in the materials as both a statesman and the man he was in every day life.
Rosarchiv (Russian Archives) announced the launch of a new website called Documents of the Soviet Era, where one may find materials from Stalin's personal foundation. It took experts five years to digitize them.
The "Fund of Stalin" section of the website is divided into five categories: "Own Documents", "Books from the Library of Stalin with his notes," "Biographical documents," "Greetings to Stalin in connection with his 70th anniversary", "Letters and telegrams sent due to the illness and death of Stalin."
The documented assets of other major figures of Soviet history - Khrushchev, Brezhnev and Molotov - will be converted in electronic form soon too.
The project is based on documents from the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History - the former Central Party Archive of the CPSU, Andrei Artizov, the head of Russian Archives, said Tuesday during the presentation of the website.
All materials are divided into two blocks: materials of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Communist Party for the years 1919-1933 and materials from the private fund of Stalin.
The total volume of the published documents makes up 390,000 pages, or about 100,000 documents. Now it is possible to read documents on the website and make printouts of them. Visitors can also get codes for sharing materials on Twitter and Facebook.
Artizov pointed out the importance of the publication of documents in light of the work on a new textbook on history.
"The process of self-identification of modern Russia will not be completed until we all together develop a balanced approach to the Soviet era. The approach that will be based on objective analysis that would give a sober assessment of both the achievements and the price of that time that people had to pay for those achievements," said Artizov.
The rector of the State Humanitarian University, historian Yefim Pivovar, shares a similar opinion.
"The informative and methodical element of this process is highly important. We are preparing new textbooks on history. These materials that were previously unavailable to a wide range of readers should be reflected in textbooks for middle and high school," said the rector.
"There is a lot of discussion going on about these subjects, and open access to this information will brush some radical positions aside," he added.
The head of Russian Archives also said that the English version of the website will soon be available in other countries, particularly in the U.S.. "It will be a paid subscription, and a part of the future income will be transferred to the Russian budget," he said.
According to Artizov, Russian Archives plans to make a series of publications for the 70th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The publications will be about the activities of the Soviet Military Administration in Germany, the documents that were seized in Nazi Germany and documents of the National Defense Commission.
Bodies of military personnel with American and Polish chevrons on uniforms were found in Avdiivka, adviser to the head of the Donetsk People's Republic said

Mark McGrath: Real Housewives Inspired Sugar Ray's New Album
Mark McGrath wants to make one thing clear: Sugar Ray isn’t putting out a new album because they think they’ll be selling out arenas. “It’s purely for the love,” says the 41-year-old singer.
“We’re not blink-182 or No Doubt – they’re playing arenas. We’re playing House of Blues-sized venues and we’re lucky and happy to be playing them,” he adds.
Sugar Ray’s first studio record in six years, the just-released Music for Cougars, finds them returning to their signature breezy rock – after trying to shift toward dance and R&B – and aiming for those fans who’ve grown up with them over their 21-year career.
“Our fans qualify as cougars,” says McGrath. “There’s no negative slant. It’s a word of empowerment. Cougars are great!”
His favorite cougars? “Halle Berry – she’s the hottest girl in the world. And I love The Real Housewives of Orange County, especially Vicki Gunvalson, the one who goes ‘Woo-hoo!'” In fact, says McGrath, “We wrote a song called ‘She’s Got The (Woo-Hoo!)’ after her.”
Though McGrath says his four-year stint co-hosting Extra was, “radically different for me, but great,” he always knew he’d return to music. “Hollywood is a vanity game,” he says. “I got another bottom row of veneers just to be on Extra. It just wasn’t my passion. Mario Lopez is doing a great job keeping it relevant. They did the right thing making a change.”
Sugar Ray – which also includes guitarist Rodney Sheppard, bassist Murphy Karges, drummer Stan Frazier, and Craig “DJ Homicide” Bullock – is on the road through late September in support of their new album.

The Italian Almanac
Prisoner-turned-film-star Aniello Arena hailed the success of Reality, the Italian film that landed the second prize at the Cannes Film Festival Sunday - the same award that director Matteo Garrone won four years ago for his Neapolitan mafia pic Gomorrah. "I'm happy for Matteo, myself, cinema and Italy," Arena told reporters in a thick Neapolitan dialect from his home near the southern Italian city. I'm out on leave, at home," from a jail in Volterra, Tuscany, where he is serving life for his part in a Naples massacre 20 years ago, Arena explained.
"I'd really like to thank all the people who gave me permits to work over the last 10 years," said the 44-year-old, who was let out of prison to film the tale of a Neapolitan fisherman dreaming to be on a TV reality show but was unable to attend the Cannes awards ceremony. He was allowed out of prison on day release to make the film, but permitting him to enjoy the bright lights and cocktail parties of Cannes was regarded as a step too far.
Arena has taken an extraordinary path since being arrested for the killings on Christmas Eve, 1991. Twelve years ago, having never acted in his life, he became part of a prison theatre company called Fortezza (Fortress) and soon became one of its star actors. Garrone spotted the former Camorra "soldier" during a season of summer theatre at Volterra. He was keen to give Arena a part in Gomorrah, but judges ruled that the subject matter was too close to the inmate's own past.
Garrone, 43, paid tribute to the "breath of reality" that Arena's performance gave the film, which he described as "the polar opposite of Gomorrah", the gritty Camorra story based on Roberto Saviano's bestelling book. Arena, a convicted Camorra assassin who was jailed for his part in gunning down three men on the streets of Naples 20 years ago, was the only cast member absent from the awards ceremony.
The jury at the 65th Cannes Film Festival was chaired by cult Italian director Nanni Moretti, who won the Palme d'Or with The Son's Room in 2001. Garrone came second to Michael Haneke who won his second Palme d'or in three years with Amour.

If Your Sauce Pan is Stainless Steel
All grades of stainless steels are iron-based alloys with significant percentages of chromium. Typically, stainless steels contain less than 30% chromium and more than 50% iron. Their stainless characteristics stem from the formation of an invisible, adherent, protective and self-healing chromium-rich oxide (Cr2O3) surface film. While stainless steels are resistant to rusting at room temperatures, they're prone to discoloration by oxidation at elevated temperatures due to the presence of chromium and other alloying elements such as titanium and molybdenum.
Factors that contribute to increased oxidation include high dew points, high oxygen and oxides of lead, boron and nitrides on the surface. For bright stainless steels, process them in a highly reducing atmosphere with a dew point lower than –40oF and a minimum of 25% hydrogen.
How to treat Heat Stains
A quick dip in an HCl solution followed by a thorough rinse should remove the oxide "stain", providing it only has a slight "heat" discoloration.
Hard Water Stains
Hard water stains. These result on metal surfaces like sinks and faucets and come about when those areas have been exposed to a large amount of affected water. Read on for some tips on removing hard water stains from metal surfaces in your home.

The agency that wins the tender will have a budget of 8 million a year to develop offline advertising for all of Santa Casa's brands.
It will be a real race to one of the most popular advertising tenders on the market. And the starting shot to find the agency for Santa Casa de Misericórdia's brand has already been given. At the end there are 24 million euros for a contract of three, an increase of 33.3% compared to the 18 million of the previous tender. Santa Casa justifies increasing the value of the contest with the launch of new games, such as horse betting, scheduled for this year.
"This tender for creative agency services covers all brands from the Santa Casa and from the Jogos Santa Casa (JSC) universes, in contrast to the previous one, which only included JSC). The evolution also takes into account the possibility of possible portfolio evolutions, namely the launch of new brands and social games," where "the equestrian bets are inserted," adds an official source from Santa Casa.

Hopkinton girls basketball team cooks ziti dinner for homeless shelter in Worcester
The basketballs have been put away. Time to roll out the meatballs.
After a season of quiet gyms, two kitchens at nearby homes were filled recently with giggles, the chopping of vegetables and clanging pots. The usual attire included masks and team colors, though aprons would have been appropriate.
The Hopkinton girls basketball team was cooking.
The Hillers share a unique bond in two ways – four of the five seniors live on the same street and all 11 players are varsity returnees.
The season ended last month, but the team’s most crucial assist was dished out Thursday.
COVID-19 has taken so much. Crowds, high-fives, the bottoms of faces.
Pre-game bonding rituals, too.
There was also no postseason, but this group still found something to make March memorable.
“We are fortunate to have gotten a basketball season this year,” said Hopkinton senior captain Lulu Murphy. “To have great friends on the team, to have things as simple as food on the table, which is something that not everyone has.”
One of the traditions taken away this winter was the night-before-games spaghetti dinner – the “spagger.”
The Hillers decided to replace the lost team-building custom with a season’s worth of pasta in one night. Ten pounds of ziti and ten pounds of meatballs were just the start.
The Hedstrom and Connell families – who live diagonally across Connelly Hill Road from each other in the southeast part of town – hosted the preparation of a meal the team eventually helped deliver to a homeless shelter in Worcester.
Senior captain Caroline Connell said that while the season, even a shortened one, was a blessing, the team’s final act was memorable.
“We were just grateful that we were able to get on the court. This is something we took for granted,” she said. “We (were) able to come together one last time and give back to the community one last time while simultaneously bonding as a team.”
The Hillers prepared ziti, sauce and salads to go with pre-made meatballs, dinner rolls and brownies, and delivered the food to Hotel Grace, a faith-based emergency shelter in Worcester. Before the pandemic, Hotel Grace operated only on nights where the temperature dipped below 32 degrees, according to Sandy Meindersma, who helps coordinate meals for the shelter.
When COVID-19 first took hold last year, Hotel Grace partnered with Worcester to run three round-the-clock shelters. The shelter returned in the fall for up to 50 people.
“Giving back to the community is something that myself, as well as the team, finds very important,” said senior captain Millie Senseney.
10 one-pound boxes of ziti
15 24-ounce jars of sauce
10 pounds of meatballs
4 packs of salad
4 boxes of brownies
4 packs of dinner rolls
4 three-pound containers ricotta cheese
2 two-pound bags of mozzarella
Hopkinton won seven of their 12 games this winter, concluding the season in mid-February with a 51-23 win over Ashland. Three members of the team – juniors Kiki Fossbender and Lauren Cho as well as Murphy – were selected as Tri-Valley League All-Stars.
The season’s most poignant moment occurred on Jan. 29, when the Hillers honored Maggie Hedstrom, Murphy, Connell, Senseney and an unable-to-play Kylie Hardenbrook on Senior Night before a game against Dedham.
Hardenbrook, a three-year varsity player, suffered a season-ending knee injury earlier in January, but just after tip-off, was allowed an uncontested layup that represented the final basket of her career. The opportunity was part of a deal set up beforehand where the teams exchanged baskets to start the game.
“She’s tough, she’s unselfish,” said Hopkinton coach Mike Greco. “Being able to get her in the game … meant a lot to us. That was the last time (the seniors) were on the court together.”
Close, and close to home
A key reason for the team’s tightness comes from the fact that Maggie and Carly Hedstrom (a junior who will be a captain next year), Connell, Hardenbrook and Senseney all live on the same street.
Shooting baskets in the driveway, carpooling or simply strolling the streets was made easier because of the close proximity. Same goes for working toward completing the 10,000 Shot Challenge, which is part of a nationwide appeal to young basketball players to make that many game-speed shots – 100 per day – between March 23 and June 30, according to a release sent by Greco.
“The majority of our time (together) was spent outside,” said Maggie Hedstrom, “whether we were walking around our neighborhood or working together to complete our 10k shot challenge. It was just really nice to see many of my teammates even with all the COVID restrictions.”
COVID-19 has taken so much – no team sleepovers, no season-ending banquet, no spaggers. Why not give back? And keep giving.
Hotel Grace may not have seen the last of Hopkinton.
“Rather than focus on what we didn’t get to do,” said Hardenbrook, “it would be great if this season was remembered for adding a new tradition for future Hiller teams.”

With that, the 2016 NFL regular season is done. Where the heck did that go? As we enter January do-or-die football, there are stories aplenty for the 12 teams in the tournament. Miami are in for the first time since ’08, the Raiders will make their first appearance since 2002. Brady and the Pats are in once more, as the #1 seed of course, and Big Ben and the Steelers will look to make amends after two seasons in a row dampened by injuries to offensive stars.
In the NFC, there’s the been there, done that duo of Eli Manning and Aaron Rodgers (who’s teams will meet in the final game of Wildcard weekend), and the #1 seed Cowboys who have ridden their two incredible rookies to a first round bye, a record equalling 13-3 season and the teams most successful since the 2007 season (also 13-3, where they lost in the Divisional round to, guess who? The Giants). Atlanta, somewhat “flying” (pun intended) under the radar, have ridden their MVP-candidate QB Matt Ryan to the second seed in the NFC. Then there’s Seattle, coming off a hot and cold season, who nobody will want to play at CenturyLink Field (sorry Detroit fans, that’s you).
So with playoff football finally here, let’s get dissecting. (Games are in order of which they will be played).
8:35am, Sunday Jan.8 (AEDT)
How the Texans win :
Houston are back in the play-offs in 2017 after winning the weakest division in the NFL (the AFC south) for the second straight season. Despite finishing 9-7, the Texans have had major issues at QB all season, and that looks to be the case next Saturday afternoon (US time). Tom Savage looked as though he would lead the team into the playoffs after Osweiler was benched in week 16, however Savage suffered a concussion in the week 17 win over Tennessee and now looks set to miss. The Texans have had an exceptional season on defence this year, even without superstar JJ watt, finishing 12th in run defence (99.7 ypg), and second in pass defence (201.6 ypg) behind only the Broncos (185 ypg). The blueprint for a Texans win is simple: Lamar Miller must show up and run for good yardage on the ground, whilst the offensive line must keep Khalil Mack and co off the Texans QB’s back (whoever that is). If Jadeveon Clowney and the Houston front 7 can get in the Raiders face, and the secondary can provide a vice-like grip on the dangerous Oakland relievers, there is hope for a Houston franchise that are desperate to atone for an embarrassing blowing in the same playoff game last year to the Chiefs.
Key Injuries: QB Tom Savage (concussion, doubtful), DE JJ Watt (IR), RB Lamar Miller (ankle, questionable) DE Jedeveon Clowney (elbow/wrist, questionable) WR Braxton Miller (IR), WR Jaelon Strong (IR), OT Derek Newton (IR), CB Kevin Johnson (IR)
How the Raiders win:
The silver & black are back in the play-offs for the first time in 14 years, finishing with the equal second best record in the AFC at 12-4, but having to settle for the 5th seed after the Chiefs clinched the division on Sunday. A gut wrenching broken leg to gun young QB Derek Carr, coupled with the recent shoulder injury to back-up Matt McGloin, leaves the Raiders in the nightmare position of likely having to start a rookie QB in Connor Cook in what would be his first career start, and in the franchise’s biggest game in over a decade. Regardless of who plays QB for either team in this match-up, both defences are going to be asked to do a lot. Khalil Mack, in his first playoff game, will have to have his biggest game of the year. Oakland’s rush defence has been generous this season, allowing an average of 117.6 yards per game (23rd in the league), so pressure from Mack and co from the edge and up the middle will be crucial. Despite being a charitable rush defence, the Raiders are running on opponents themselves for an average of 120 ypg (6th in the league). If they are to make their long awaited return to the playoffs a memorable one, Osemele, Hudson and the big boys up front must pave the way for a big day for the Raider running backs (led by Latavius Murray who has rushed for a mere 788 yards this season, with 12 rushing TD’s).
Key Injuries :
QB Derek Carr (out), QB Matt McGloin (shoulder, doubtful), S Nate Allen (concussion, questionable) CB DJ Hayden (IR)
12:15, Sunday Jan. 8 (AEDT)
How the Seahawks win:
The Seahawks are in the playoffs for a franchise record equalling 5th straight time, and have a frenzied home crowed at CenturyLink field waiting to welcome the visiting Lions. Having won the NFC West with a record of 10-5-1, the somewhat hot and cold Seahawks will enter this years tournament with two key things missing that they’ve had in the past: 1) All pro safety Earl Thomas broke his leg in week 11 and the Seahawk defence has not looked the same since, and 2) no Marshawn Lynch, and no ground game even close to resembling what Seattle have boasted in the past. If the Seahawks are going to beat the Lions and make some noise in the playoffs, it all starts with the offensive line. The Seahawks have spent very little on their O-line, and it shows. They’ve rushed for the 25th fewest yards in the league (99.4 ypg) and have allowed Russel Wilson to be sacked 42 times (6th most in the league this season). Even though Detroit’s defense is not a beast when it comes to gaining sacks itself (equal second last with just 26), the O-line playing solid will result in Wilson having more time to scout the situation downfield against a shaky Detroit secondary (just 10 picks this season, equal with the Browns, 49’ers and Rams), and will aid Wilson in picking up yards with his legs and making up for the lack of a star RB.
S Earl Thomas (leg, out), WR Tyler Lockett (leg, out) RB CJ Prosise (shoulder, out)
How the Lions win:
Detroit’s run to the playoffs has been nothing short of stunning, coming from behind in the last quarter in 8 of their 9 wins, and also 8 of their 9 wins coming by 1 score or less. Detroit’s offense is 11th in passing yards per game (256.9), however they are 30th in rushing yards per game (81.9). Though missing all-pro safety Earl Thomas, this is still a vaunted Seahawks secondary that enjoys when QB’s attack them, knowing full well it’s not a matter of if but when the next interception will come, so leaning on Matt Stafford and throwing the ball 40-50 times in front of a rocking Seattle home crowd is not a recipe for success. With both Ameer Abdullah and Theo Riddick on Injured Reserve, Zach Zenner is going to have to take some of the heat off Stafford if the Lions are any chance to move the ball down the field against Seattle’s D. One player that has to get going on defense is DE Ziggy Ansah, who has had a disappointing season with just 2 sacks. This is a Seattle O-line that is ripe for the picking (having allowed 42 sacks this season, 6th most) and if Ansah and the other Detroit edge rushers can nullify Wilson’s impact, or even put him in the Seattle dirt, it will go a long way towards earning Detroit just their second playoff victory in team history, and the first since 1991.
CB Darius Slay (hamstring, questionable), RB Ameer Abdullah (IR), CB Quandre Diggs (IR), RB Theo Riddick (IR)
5:05, Monday Jan. 9 (AEDT)
How the Steelers win:
The Steelers will kick-off their journey to a record 7th Superbowl at home against a Miami team that beat them in Miami by a score of 30-15 in what was a surprise to everyone who follows the NFL and has a brain. The Steelers have been riding Le’veon Bell through their recent 7 game win streak, and both player and team are hitting their straps at the right time. The key for the Steelers in this game will be to get Bell going early and often, but perhaps more importantly stop Miami’s run game. When these teams met in week 6, Jay Ajayi run all over the Pittsburgh defense to the tune of 204 yards and 2 TD’S, while Bell ran for a measly 53 yards and didn’t get in the endzone. Even though the Dolphins will be playing a backup QB, if Shazier, Timmons, Hargrave and the boys up front for the black & gold don’t get on top of Miami’s run game early, it could be a long day for the Pittsburgh defense, and by extension, the offence. A good showing by the D and the offensive line keep Big Ben upright, allowing him time to find the 406 weapons he has at his disposal, should spell a win for the Steelers.
DE Cam Hayward (IR), DE Ricardo Matthews (ankle, questionable), DE Stephon Tuitt (knee, questionable) WR Marcus Wheaton (IR) TE Ladarius Green (concussion, questionable)
How the Dolphins win:
Miami snuck up on everyone this season, beginning the season 1-4 before winning 9 of their next 11 to finish 10-6 and pinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2008. There was no secret as to how the Dolphins did it, either, rushing for 1,824 yards on the season (9th in the league) and having second year RB Jay Ajayi run for 1,272 of those yards (4th most in the league). The Dolphin defense has been terrible against the run this season, ranking 30th (140.4average per game), and that’s not good news for a defense that will be looking across the line of scrimmage at the hottest RB in the league in Le’Veon Bell. Pittsburgh have the capacity to kill you both on the ground and through the air, so if Miami’s DB’s can hang tough with Pitt’s WR’s down field when the defence stacks the box, and avoid an offensive shoot-out, Miami may be in with a shot (Miami’s pass defense is 18th in the league giving up 242.2ypg). As far as backup QB’s go, Matt Moore is one from the upper echelon, but if this game turns into an offensive shootout, the Dolphins are in BIG trouble.
QB Ryan Tannehill (knee, out), TE Jordan Cameron (IR), S Reshad Jones (IR), S Isa Abdul-Quddus (IR), C Mike Pouncey, CB Byron Maxwell (ankle, doubtful)
New York Giants@Green Bay
8:40am, Monday Jan. 9th (AEDT)
How the Packers win:
What a turn around it has been for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. After being annihilated by the Redskins on Sunday Night Football in week 11, the Packers have sured up the their woes on the offensive line and defense to storm home, winning their final 6 games with a total points differential of +73 in that stretch. Now that the Packers O-line is healthy, they are going to earn their money this postseason, beginning with a tough match-up against one of the leagues best defensive lines (and a top 10 defense overall). The Giants defense has 17 interceptions on the year (tied for 4th) but have conceded the 10th most yards through the air this season (251.1 ypg), so there is an opportunity for Aaron Rodgers to have a big game through the air in front of a huge home crowed at Lambeau Field (A-Rod has thrown for 4,428 yards this season, 4th in the league). It’s shaping up to be a game where Rodgers puts the Pack on his back, thanks to an anemic Packers running game (20th in the league at just on 106.3 ypg) “running” into a Giants rush defense boasting the equal 3rd fewest yards on the ground this season (88.6 ypg). On defense, the Packers main objective will be to stop Giants WR Odell Beckham from producing those 1 or 2 big plays that have killed opposing defenses all season (Beckham is 3rd in the league this season with a total 1,367 recieving yards, and 5th with a total 10 TD receptions). This will be easier said then done, however, with the Packers secondary being picked apart through injury the last few weeks (Green Bay had 2 starting cornerbacks on IR before Quinten Rollins went down in week 17 with a neck injury), and a secondary that has allowed the second most yards through the air this season (4,308, second only to New Orleans).
CB Quinten Rollins (neck, doubtful), CB Sam Shields (IR), CB Demetri Goodson (IR), RB Eddie Lacy (IR), OT Bryan Bulaga (shoulder, questionable)
How the Giants win:
The Giants return to the playoffs five years after their most recent appearence in 2011 where the team went on an amazing run, defeating New England for what was Big Blues fourth Lombardy trophy. Off the back of an exceptional season defensively, New York will be hoping they can ride their defense all the way to Houston for Superbowl 51. One thing is for certain, if the Giants wish to go on a magical run once more, it all starts with stopping Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson at Lameau. Rodgers and Nelson have connected for the most TD’s through the air this season (14), whilst the Rodgers-Devonta Adams combination is tied for second (12 TD’s). It’s up to the emerging secondary of the Giants to take care of Nelson, Adams, and perhaps Randall Cobb (who has sat out the Packers last 2 games with a lingering ankle issue), and let the sensational (and expensive) defensive line get after the most elusive QB in pro football (the Giants have 35 sacks on the season, however the Packers have allowed Rodgers to be hit just 76 times, 9th fewest in the league). The Giants offense, surprisingly to some, is ranked 25th in total yards this season (5,291) and 7th fewest in total points (310), having not put up a score of 30+ points this season. After not having a 100 yard rush game until the final game of the season, it’s clear where the G-Men are going to win this game. Manning must attack the second worst pass defense in the league, and count an Landon Collins (5 picks), Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (6 picks), and Janoris Jenkins (3 picks) making the Packers pay when they decide to take shots down the field. Do that, and this could be the beginning of another New York Giants magical run to the Superbowl.
CB Janoris Jenkins (back, questionable), Jason Pierre-Paul (core muscle, out), S Nat Berhe (concussion, questionable)
So as we embark on what will hopefully be another awesome month of playoff football, it may be a good idea to use the upcoming 4 or 5 days or so to start growing our fingernails. It looks as though they will be required.

If the small business jet market has new competitors like Pilatus and Honda, at the top of the category the situation is still concentrated in tradition. Dassault, Bombardier and Gulfstream continue to pursue those customers and corporations willing to invest astronomical sums on aircraft that transcend aviation standards. The reason is that a long-range business jet costs as much as many commercial aircraft.
But there seems to be no limit to them, as it became clear this week when Gulfstream unveiled the G700, its most ambitious business jet. It is a superlative aircraft: over 33 meters long (almost the same as a Boeing 737-700), space for up to 21 passengers at a top speed of Mach 0.925 and an impressive distance of 13,900 km (7,500 nautical miles).
The company’s target is obvious, Bombardier Global 7500, another giant in the segment. But Gulfstream has raised the bar by designing a fuselage with unbeatable interior space: the passenger cabin is 17.4 meters long, 2.5 meters wide and 1.9 meters high, surpassing the Bombardier jet by all dimensions.
Thanks to this, Gulfstream says the G700 can be configured with up to five different environments that can include a six-person dining room, master suite or 180-degree tilt seating for up to 10 passengers. Flying at up to 51,000 feet (15,540 meters), the jet promises a cabin altitude of 4,850 feet (1,478 meters).
Gulfstream has chosen the new Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 turbofan, with 18,250 pounds of thrust, which has such a high level of automation that it can take less than 10 minutes between departure and the aircraft taxi. With lower fuel consumption, the engine provided the longest range, but in this respect the G700 does not match the Global 7500, at least in absolute numbers.
Bombardier claims that its jet, which went into service last year, can fly 7,700 nautical miles (or 14,260 km), with eight passengers (plus four crew) and at a speed of Mach 0.85 – the Global 7500 can carry at maximum 19 passengers. The G700 does the same, however, with a smaller 360 km range in theory. To journalists attending the event, Gulfstream said its customers’ concern is to have more space rather than greater autonomy.
Still, it’s a hat-taking performance. From a map on the company’s website, you can see that a London-based plane, for example, just can’t fly nonstop to Australia, meaning nearly every major region of the world is within Gulfstream’s jet range.
Already in tests
The best news from the company at the opening of NBAA 2019 was to reveal that the G700 is already at a very advanced stage of development. One of the five prototypes is already conducting taxi trials and nearly 14,000 hours of various tests have been completed so far in preparation for the first flight, the date of which Gulfstream has not yet disclosed. But the manufacturer has confirmed that the G700 will go into service by 2022. The first customer is Qatar Airways airline that ordered an aircraft for its charter service – the American FlexJet was also announced during the event and will be the first customer in Gulfstream’s home country.
Estimated price of the new plane? No less than $ 76 million, which can rise depending on how each customer decides to finish their interior.

Transport for London (TfL) is consulting on much-needed improvements at one of London’s most dangerous junctions: where Battersea Bridge meets Chelsea Embankment, as well as improvements across the bridge and south into Wandsworth.
The good news: the junction designs are good and will likely save lives for those cycling, walking and wheeling in the area.
The bad news: far more is needed to make walking, cycling and wheeling truly safe across the area covered by this scheme. More details and our verdict below. Please respond today to the short TfL survey at www.haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/batterseabridge
The consultation closes on Tuesday 24 January. (You’ll have to register with the TfL website but this is really quick, as is the survey.)
We broadly welcome the proposed changes at the Battersea Bridge junction with Chelsea Embankment, particularly the pedestrian crossings, banned turn and dedicated cycle signals. The changes finally put signalised pedestrian crossings of every arm of this lethal junction, they ban a turn into Beaufort Street and provide cycle signals and tracks on some arms. The main remaining issue is a ‘hook’ risk for those cycling south onto Battersea Bridge with a risk of vehicles turning across them.
The scheme misses out making cycling along Chelsea Embankment safer. Yet this east-west corridor is one of the ‘highest potential’ for cycling on TfL’s own ‘Strategic Cycling Analysis’.
Again, this does little for walking, cycling or wheeling – and again this north-south corridor is one of the ‘highest potential’ for cycling according to TfL itself. The bridge and approach is constrained for space – but there are surely better ways of enabling cycling and public transport here? Cut the private motor traffic? Squeeze in cycle tracks? Put in Low Traffic Neighbourhoods either side of the approach (which TfL’s Strategic Neighbourhood Analysis suggests are needed), and use that to simplify junctions? Put in a bus gate?
Regardless – TfL and boroughs urgently need to make sensible decisions about how those walking, cycling and wheeling are meant to get across the Thames safely and easily – if not here, where there’s the highest potential for cycling, where?
Feel free to adapt this to add your own comments to the survey at Question 3
KEEP UP TO DATE

Both teams have rather large flaws -- the Steelers O-Line is duct tape and prayers and the Packers really have no running game to speak of.

Latter & Blum Inc. fortified its dominance in Louisiana's residential real estate market in December through two significant transactions -- a merger with Van Eaton & Romero Realtors in Lafayette and the acquisition of M.A. Allen Realtors in Denham Springs. Following the additions, Latter & Blum is now projected to finish the year with $1.8 billion in total sales, a 30 percent increase over 2011. It is also expected to move up from 59 to 34 in the national rankings of the biggest real estate companies.
"Any time you're a company our size and you can increase by that number, that's huge," said president Rick Haase. "But size isn't really the issue; it's the aggregate financial strength of these companies put together. This hasn't been done in the history of Louisiana real estate."
M.A. Allen and its 41 agents, acquired Dec. 6, will operate under the C.J. Brown Realtors banner, a Baton Rouge-based company owned by Latter & Blum. Van Eaton & Romero, with its 250 agents, will maintain its leadership and brand. The group represents 34 percent of the Lafayette market, making it the largest residential real estate company in the area. It merged with Latter & Blum Dec. 12.
"The technological, managerial, and strategic support coupled with the regional, national, and worldwide connections that we are gaining by becoming one of the Latter & Blum family of companies heightens our capabilities exponentially," Bill Bacqué, CEO of Van Eaton & Romero, said in a statement.
Latter & Blum's entrance into the Lafayette market provides another layer of financial security in the event of a catastrophe, Haase said.
"When Katrina came ashore, if it hadn't been for our Baton Rouge market where we were operating the largest (real estate) company, C.J. Brown, the financial devastation would have been huge to the company," Haase said. "It was the same when the BP oil spill hit the Gulf Coast. Because of our geographic diversity our business was able to go on almost uninterrupted."
Latter & Blum has grown by nearly 40 percent in the past three years through a series of mergers and acquisitions including Noles-Frye Realty in Alexandria in 2009, the residential real estate operations of Stirling Properties in 2011, and Coldwell Banker Mackey in Baton Rouge that same year.
The company may consider expanding even more but for now it is "taking a breath," Haase said.


- “Toxic masculinity and the sense of entitlement that comes with it is often maintained through violence, or the threat of violence. Toxic masculinity was a key issue in the plot of the episode, but you don’t need to watch a tv show to know that it is also a key underlying issue in much of the violence, including gun violence that has been taking place around the country.
How many mass shootings have we had this year by white males angry because they were rejected from women; angry because their immediate demand for time, attention, and ultimately access to women’s bodies was denied?”
