The aim of EThOS is to give access to all doctoral theses from all UK institutions whether paper based or
You can easily search and browse the records and see information about each thesis. Where electronic copies of the full text theses already exist, you can access them for free either by direct download from the EThOS database (login required) or by clicking a link to the digital repository of the awarding university (no login needed).
If no digital copy exists, you can usually order a scanned copy. The system will manage this process; there will be a delay while the paper thesis is scanned and there may be a charge. You will be informed when the thesis becomes available for download. You can track the progress of your order by viewing the Order History.
The EThOS Toolkit is a resource which aims to support UK Higher Education institutions in participating in
Information in the EThOS Toolkit can now be found at https://www.bl.uk/ethos-and-theses. Here you can find detailed information about thesis metadata, digitisation, author rights and other legal issues.
It also explains how the service operates and the variation in coverage, full text availability and access options that users might experience between universities - and indeed between different records from the same university.
New search
The New search is for quick and easy searching.
Type your keywords into the Search box. If you want to search for a specific phrase, type it within double quotes, e.g. "Somerset levels".
Click on the Go button and all records containing all of your keywords are displayed, in order of most relevant first.You can reorder the list by year of award, title or author's name by selecting from the dropdown box provided.
Click on the checkbox "Limit search to items available for immediate download" to search only for documents that are held in electronic format and are therefore available as immediate downloads. You also have an option to include restricted or embargoed theses in your results. Although these theses are not available immediately, the university record might offer an option to "Request a copy" directly from the author, or you can see when an embargo will expire and make yourself a note to return to the record after that date.
Advanced Search
Advanced searching works in the same way as the "New search", except that you can specify how and where EThOS applies your keywords. Type a word or phrase into the box in each row. If a box contains more than one word there is no need to surround the words with quotes: the text will automatically be treated as a phrase to search for.
You can alter the way each of your search terms is applied by selecting a different search operator from the drop-down box to the left:
You can use the drop-down boxes on the right to specify the exact type of information from which you want EThOS to find your keyword, e.g. search for Baker as an author rather than as a word in the title. The default setting, Any word, will search for the keyword across all fields.
If you want to create a search using more than three keywords, click the Add Term button for as many additional keywords you need.
More search tips
The results of your search will be displayed in order of relevance. Above your table of results you will see the query you used for your search and the total number of matching records.
No results
If you receive no results from your search, you could check the spelling or try amending your search terms.
If you have the bibliographic details of a thesis which is not recorded in EThOS, you can submit the details using the link to the Speculative request form. Here you can enter brief details of the thesis, and our support team will search for the thesis using the various tools at our disposal.
Once we have confirmed the thesis details (UK doctoral theses only), you will be contacted with an EThOS record ID which will allow you to go to the newly created record for the thesis. You will then be able to download it or submit an order for digitisation.
If we cannot find any record for the thesis we will let you know.
Navigating your results
Ten results are displayed on each screen and you can move between screens by clicking on the numbers at the top of the list. You can also click on the navigation arrows or to go straight to your first or last page of results.
Icons displayed in the Search Results
A green open padlock means the thesis is available for immediate download either
direct from EThOS or by
following a link to the institution's own copy.
A picture of a scanner indicates the thesis can be ordered for digitisation from print. In this case, there may be a charge to cover the scan process and you will need to wait several weeks for the thesis to be copied.
This icon indicates that the thesis is under an embargo or access is restricted in another way. You will not be able to download the thesis immediately nor order a scan from the paper copy. Some universities allow you to visit the library to view the print copy. Others may offer a "Request a copy" option - a digital copy may be supplied to you once the thesis author has given permission. Many theses will not be available at all if restricted by the author. If an item is embargoed, make a note of the embargo date and check back once this date is reached.
Titles with no icon are simple bibliographic records with no information about the availability of the full thesis. Remember that availability can change, for example if older theses are digitised or if embargoes are added or removed.
Full record
If you click on a thesis title in the search results, you will go to a page containing the full bibliographic data for the thesis.
On this page you can check the availability of the thesis, download it, follow a link to the university repository, or order a copy for digitisation. Any digitisation charges and turnaround times where applicable are provided on this page. All digitisation charges are made in Sterling (GBP).
You will need to login to download from the EThOS database but not to follow links to copies held in university repositories. You also need to login to order an item for digitisation.
All EThOS records have a unique and persistent EThOS identifier, beginning with uk.bl.ethos. The number following this (e.g. uk.bl.ethos.235656) is a unique identifier for the EThOS record and quoting this number will allow us to find the specific thesis you are interested in.
You can search the database and click through to external repositories without logging in or registering. You only need to login / register when you want to download documents from the EThOS database or order a thesis for digitisation.
Why register?
EThOS supports the open access commitment of UK Higher Education. In order to protect the thesis author's rights and to minimise opportunities for plagiarism, EThOS requires users to register on the system and log in so that we can track when, where and by whom a thesis is downloaded.

EDM were pleasant and friendly service from start to finish. After seeing the reviews beforehand i knew it had to be EDM for our installation... We were advised of all the option and suggestions.

Diebold Announces Realignment Plan, Cuts 700 jobs
ATM maker Diebold announced a multi-year realignment plan aimed at reducing costs by $100 to $150 million. The plan involves shedding 700 full-time job positions, primarily in North America and corporate operations. The majority of these job reductions have already taken place, the company said.
The plan also involves creating stricter policies to control discretionary spending in areas such as non-essential travel, reducing the number of company vehicles, canceling non-critical consulting engagements, and reducing spend on all non-core marketing activities and other initiatives. The company will also be reducing the number of manufacturing facilities it operates by selling Lynchburg, Va., and Lexington, N.C.-based manufacturing operations to Porter's Group, LLC, a long-time supplier to Diebold that specializes in metal fabrication services ranging from light sheet metal to heavy metal elements.
Diebold said it is also moving toward a more centralized management structure "in order to drive swift action and clear accountability across its global operations."
Diebold said it expects to reinvest a portion of the savings in research, development and the systems and infrastructure "necessary to drive long-term growth and execute on electronic security and financial self-service strategies."

Frances - Brown Turkish Kilim Rug5' 7" x 4' 2" ft / 170 x 128 cm
Last 1 quantity
This unique Turkish rug, handcrafted by highly experienced artisans in the 1950s, draws deeply on rich Anatolian culture and history. Using high quality hand-spun wool, from a unique blend, the skills of this delightful rug's weavers shines through.
Crafted from a 100% wool pile, the long and patient process of hand knotting and weaving that defines Turkish rugs means this hardwearing rug lasts for generations.
As any rug aficionado knows, wool is an excellent fiber for quality vintage rugs because it is extremely durable and stain resistant. Wool's supple nature makes it easy to work with, and it takes dyes well, allowing weavers to play with colors and contrast.
What sets this rug apart is the exceptional creativity that uses striking designs and colors to weave stories into the fabric. This rug is a work of art that looks great in any room and is a great conversation starter.
A professional cleaning process, sympathetic to the fabric, enhanced the rugs natural inconsistencies and kept its character.
Azo-free re-dyeing further highlights the natural wear and keeps the patterns that make heritage rugs unique and beautiful.
Free Shipping is offered with this item.

Google has announced a few major upgrades to Hangouts, its Android and iOS instant messaging app.
The most long-awaited (and leaked) feature, SMS integration, will finally go live sometime today. Just like iMessage on iOS, Hangouts will seamlessly integrate both kinds of text communication into a single app and choose the appropriate service based on contact availability. Google Voice, Google's portable phone number and SMS service, was not mentioned, so it sounds like those users will have to wait longer for support.
The new version of Hangouts will also support animated GIFs, so users will be able to send hilarious animated images to their friends. Location sharing is included, too—with a single button, users will be able to embed a map and a Google Maps link showing their current location.

We investigate restricted termination and confluence properties of term rewritADing systems, in particular weak termination and innermost termination, and theirinterrelation. New criteria are provided which are sufficient for the equivalenceof innermost / weak termination and uniform termination of term rewriting sysADtems. These criteria provide interesting possibilities to infer completeness, i.e.termination plus confluence, from restricted termination and confluence properADties.Using these basic results we are also able to prove some new results aboutmodular termination of rewriting. In particular, we show that termination ismodular for some classes of innermost terminating and locally confluent termrewriting systems, namely for nonADoverlapping and even for overlay systems. Asan easy consequence this latter result also entails a simplified proof of the factthat completeness is a decomposable property of soADcalled constructor systems.Furthermore we show how to obtain similar results for even more general cases of(nonADdisjoint) combined systems with shared constructors and of certain hierarADchical combinations of systems with constructors. Interestingly, these modularityresults are obtained by means of a proof technique which itself constitutes a modADular approach.
We consider the problem of verifying confluence and termination of conditionalterm rewriting systems (TRSs). For unconditional TRSs the critical pair lemmaholds which enables a finite test for confluence of (finite) terminating systems.And for ensuring termination of unconditional TRSs a couple of methods forconstructing appropiate well-founded term orderings are known. If however ter-mination is not guaranteed then proving confluence is much more difficult. Re-cently we have obtained some interesting results for unconditional TRSs whichprovide sufficient criteria for termination plus confluence in terms of restrictedtermination and confluence properties. In particular, we have shown that anyinnermost terminating and locally confluent overlay system is complete, i.e. ter-minating and confluent. Here we generalize our approach to the conditional caseand show how to solve the additional complications due to the presence of con-ditions in the rules. Our main result can be stated as follows: Any conditionalTRS which is an innermost terminating semantical overlay system such that all(conditional) critical pairs are joinable is complete.

Sometimes even Santa Claus is in need of a state-of-the art medical procedure. For more than 24 years, Paul Crochet, 73, of Houma, LA, has played the role of Santa at Southland Mall, entertaining kids with his natural Claus-like features and jolly Cajun accent. But when Crochet sought relief from aortic stenosis, he learned his only option would be an unconventional trial surgery.
If left untreated, Aortic stenosis makes it difficult for blood to flow throughout the body. If left untreated, the condition worsens, which could lead to heart failure and an increased risk of sudden cardiac arrest. Chest pains, fatigue, feeling faint and shortness of breath are common symptoms of aortic stenosis. "I was in a lot of pain and was having some trouble breathing," Crochet said. "But I had the surgery done, and everything is fine now."
Because of Crochet's severe lung disease he had to forgo the conventional open-heart surgery usually performed for aortic stenosis. Instead, Crochet was given the option to participate in a clinical trial that involves a catheter-based procedure to implant an artificial valve. Dr. Peter Fail, a cardiologist at Houma-based Cardiovascular Institute of the South, said the investigational procedure was Crochet's only option, which replaces the need for conventional aortic valve replacement. "We were able to implant a stent valve — a procedure called TAVI," Fail said. "The only option was to do this or nothing." TAVI is short for transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Fail performed Crochet's procedure at Terrebonne General Medical Center on Oct. 19. Fail and Dr. Edgar Feinberg II, a CIS heart surgeon, are the primary doctors involved in the clinical trial at Terrebonne General Medical Center. CIS and TGMC are among 45 medical centers in the U.S. that participate in the study.
The procedure works by using a catheter to guide an artificial valve to the heart artery. Once the valve is in place, the catheter is removed and the newly implanted valve expands, correcting the issue of restrictive blood flow. Crochet was released from the hospital after four days, Fail said. "It worked great," Fail said. "We saved Christmas."
Crochet is expected to see "dramatic improvements in his ability to do things," the doctor said. Crochet said he feels much better, and he's able to perform the job he loves without any pain. "It's very rewarding seeing the expressions on these kids' faces." Crochet said the operation is fairly simple, and he recommends the surgery to patients who are given the option. "Christmas will be on time this year," he said.

Busdriver's "Me-Time (with the Pulmonary Palimpsest)" Digital Single Available on iTunes
Breath-Defying Word Wiz's Jhelli Beam in Stores June 9th
"To think of Busdriver's music as hip-hop is to think of Frank Zappa's as rock, Raymond Scott's as jazz or George Clinton's as funk. The classification doesn't quite cover how much more the music says," writes Jim Fusilli at the Wall St. Journal, and in a single sentence managed to capture the complexity of Busdriver's sound
Filled with humor, intelligence and cheekiness in equal parts, Busdriver is possibly the first hip hop artist to do what he do over Mozart's Sonata in A Major, the backing track to his first single "Me Time (with the Pulmonary Palimpsest)," available now on iTunes. His full-length Jhelli Beam is in stores June 9th.
Busdriver has a handful of upcoming shows, including Jhelli Beam record release shows in New York and Los Angeles.

"We didn't want to make a move just to make a move…"
Is this going to be another one of those trade deadlines for the Reds? Is Walt Jocketty and the rest of the Cincinnati Reds front office really content with what they have or will they pull the trigger and make the team even better? With more fans going to the park there should be some more money to spend in order to keep first place for the rest of the season. I know that many will jump in and say why jinx it by trading now? But, must I remind everyone what happened when the front office didn't make any moves last time the Reds were hot? One or two more much-needed pieces will help push this team even higher up the rankings, plus a little competition for some position players like Drew Stubbs might help motivate them more.
So far there have been a few rumors surrounding left-handed lead off hitters but nothing solid. If the Pirates make another move to better their team before the trade deadline I think Walt will have to try to do something in order to keep up. But, those are just my thoughts.
Pssst, Walt! Make a move, I dare you. 🙂

BEIRUT — Syria"s increasingly powerful Islamist rebel factions rejected the country"s new Western-backed opposition coalition and unilaterally declared an Islamic state in the key battleground of Aleppo, a sign of the seemingly intractable splits among those fighting to topple President Bashar Assad.
The move highlights the struggle over the direction of the rebellion at a time when the opposition is trying to gain the West"s trust and secure a flow of weapons to fight the regime. The rising profile of the extremist faction among the rebels could doom those efforts.
Such divisions have hobbled the opposition over the course of the uprising, which has descended into a bloody civil war. According to activists, nearly 40,000 people have been killed since the revolt began 20 months ago. The fighting has been particularly extreme in Aleppo, Syria"s largest city and a major front in the civil war since the summer.
Salman Shaikh, director of The Brookings Doha Center in Qatar, said Monday the Islamists" declaration will unsettle both Western backers of the Syrian opposition and groups inside Syria, ranging from secularists to the Christian minority.
"They have to feel that the future of their country could be slipping away," Shaikh said. "This is a sign of things to come the longer this goes on. The Islamist groups and extremists will increasingly be forging alliances and taking matters into their own hands." The West is particularly concerned about sending weapons to rebels for fear they could end up in extremists" hands.
The Islamists" announcement, made in an online video released Sunday, shows the competing influences within the rebellion, between religious hard-liners who want to create an Islamic state in Syria — including foreign al-Qaida-style jihadi fighters — and the newly formed Syrian National Coalition, which was created earlier this month in hopes of uniting the disparate groups fighting Assad"s regime.
The National Coalition was formed under pressure from the United States, which sought a more reliable partner that nations could support. Key to its credibility is whether it can ensure the support of the multiple, highly independent rebel brigades battling on the ground across the country within Syria, which largely ignored the previous opposition political leadership, made up of exiles.
In the new video, 13 Islamic radical factions denounced the coalition as a foreign creation.
Most important among them were the al-Tawheed Brigade, which is one of the largest rebel groups operating in Aleppo, and Jabhat al-Nusra — Arabic for "the Support Front" — which is mainly made up of foreign jihadi fighters. Jabhat al-Nusra has become notorious for suicide bombings targeting regime and military facilities and is at the forefront of fighting in Aleppo.
"We are the representatives of the fighting formations in Aleppo and we declare our rejection of the conspiratorial project, the so-called national alliance," an unidentified speaker said in the video. "We have unanimously agreed to urgently establish an Islamic state."
He spoke at the head of a conference table where about 20 others were gathered, with a black Islamist flag behind them.
The authenticity of the video could not be independently confirmed, but it was released on a website that carries al-Qaida and other militant statements, as well as on the al-Tawheed Brigade website.
The new opposition bloc, formed Nov. 11 in Qatar, is trying to allay fears of extremism within the rebellion. A moderate cleric, Mouaz al-Khatib, was chosen as its leader in an attempt to establish the movement"s religious credentials with the public while countering more radical factions.
In Cairo, al-Khatib played down the significance of those who reject the alliance, saying, "we will keep in contact with them for more cooperation in the interest of the Syrian people."
He also announced that the coalition would be headquartered in the Egyptian capital.
The coalition is gaining some traction internationally. France was the first Western nation to recognize it as the only legitimate representative of the Syrian people. France also welcomed a member of the Syrian opposition as the country"s ambassador.
Turkey and the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council also recognized the group as the representative of the Syrian people.
But the United States and Italy have been somewhat less forthcoming. President Barack Obama has said the U.S. needed more time and wanted to make sure that the group "is committed to a democratic Syria, an inclusive Syria, a moderate Syria."
He also says the U.S. isn"t considering sending weapons to the opposition because of concerns the arms might fall into the hands of extremists.
Italy took a similar view, recognizing the opposition as legitimate but stopping there.
On Monday, European Union foreign ministers gave the bloc a vote of confidence but stopped short of offering official diplomatic recognition because that can only be decided by each member country individually. Still, the endorsement of the coalition as a legitimate voice for Syria"s people represents a major step forward in Western acceptance for the group.
"The EU considers them legitimate representatives of the aspirations of the Syrian people," the bloc"s 27 foreign ministers said in a statement at the end of their monthly meeting in Brussels.
Some EU members have suggested arming the Syrian opposition, but the idea has gotten little traction.
Currently, the EU has an embargo prohibiting the shipment of arms into Syria, which is likely to be renewed later this week. A senior EU official said last week that shipping weapons to Syrian rebels while keeping an embargo against the Assad regime in place would be difficult to enforce.
The violence in Syria threatens to inflame an already combustible region. The fighting already has already spilled into Israel, Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey.
Germany"s defense minister said Monday he expects Turkey to make a formal request to NATO for Patriot missiles to bolster anti-aircraft defenses along the border with Syria.
"It may be — I expect it — that there will be a request by the Turkish government to NATO today for Patriot missiles to be stationed on the Turkish border," Thomas de Maiziere said ahead of the EU meeting.
NATO"s Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said no such request had been received yet from Ankara, but that if it was it would be considered "as a matter of urgency."
"The situation along the Syrian-Turkish border is of great concern," Fogh Rasmussen said as he arrived for a meeting with the European Union"s foreign and defense ministers. "We have all plans in place to defend and protect Turkey if needed."
Although the civil war has left Assad isolated internationally, Iran has stuck by Damascus.
Iran"s semi-official Fars news agency said Monday that Tehran has started building a $10 billion natural gas pipeline to Syria as part of efforts to boost Iran"s energy sector, which has been battered by international sanctions.
The 900-mile pipeline will pass through Iraq before reaching Syria.

Ask Marilyn: More on Watson and Courtney
Jim Bobreski of Penn Yan, New York, writes:
Marilyn: Thank you for publishing my question. (January 6, 2013) I would like to provide this food for thought in response to Marilyn's answer. In a case like Dred Scott v. Sanford, would Courtney determine that a man was still property and therefore could not bring suit? Or that slavery would be permissible under our constitution? (The last of the Jim Crow laws weren't repealed until 1968!) The case law for the Americans with Disability Act has determined that drug addiction, alcoholism and criminal behavior are protected under the ADA for job discrimination; blindness, loss of limb(s), and facial deformity are not.
The purpose of law is to establish that rigidity as laws represent the boundary that a free society operates under.
Marilyn responds:
Hmm. You seem to be arguing against Courtney in your first paragraph and the opposite in the second paragraph. This may illustrate the difficulty of programming Courtney, who will then be rigid.

ACWA Boston Joint Board Records
The Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America originated from a split in the United Garment Workers in 1914 and quickly became the dominant force for union in the men's clothing industry, controlling shops in Boston, Baltimore, Chicago, and New York. The Boston Joint Board formed at the beginning of the ACWA and included locals from a range of ethnic groups and trades that comprised the industry. It coordinated the activities and negotiations for ACWA Locals 1, 12, 102, 149, 171, 172, 173, 174, 181,183, 267, and 335 in the Boston area. In the 1970s the Boston Joint Board merged with others to form the New England Regional Joint Board.
Records, including minutes, contracts, price lists, and scrapbooks, document the growth and maturity of the ACWA in Boston and the eventual decline of the industry in New England. Abundant contracts and price lists show the steady improvement of conditions for workers in the men's clothing industry. Detailed minutes reflect the political and social influence of the ACWA; the Joint Board played an important role in local and state Democratic politics and it routinely contributed to a wide range of social causes including the Home for Italian Children and the United Negro College Fund. Minutes also document the post World War II development of industrial relations in the industry and include information relating to Joint Board decisions to strike. Minutes also contain information relating to shop grievances, arbitration, shop committees, and organizing. The records largely coincide with the years of leadership of Joseph Salerno, ACWA Vice President and New England Director from 1941 to 1972.

Dr Gabriela Casabona Ocean Clinic: what do different generations want in aesthetic and cosmetic treatments?
First Have rains vicitim drowns in floods05-12-2016
The heavy rains have claimed a victim. A Romanian woman aged between 27 and 30-years-old drowned in a room of an Estepona night club where she worked.
She worked at Club California, an "alternative club" located between San Pedro and Estepona.
She had called emergency services after becoming trapped by the rising water, but they failed to arrive in time, finding the club completely flooded after being forced to break down the door.
An electrical storm, which stunned residents later described as being "the strongest in living memory" hit the Estepona area at around 4am and caused extensive chaos, with many people having been forced out of their homes.

Just about everything these days ships with tiny embedded computers that are designed to make users' lives easier. High-definition TVs, for instance, can run Skype and Pandora and connect directly to the Internet, while heating systems have networked interfaces that allow people to crank up the heat on their way home from work. But these newfangled features can often introduce opportunities for malicious hackers. Witness "Smart TVs" from Samsung or a popular brand of software for controlling heating systems in businesses.
Now, security researchers are turning their attention to the computers in cars, which typically contain as many as 50 distinct ECUs—short for electronic control units—that are all networked together. Cars have relied on on-board computers for some three decades, but for most of that time, the circuits mostly managed low-level components. No more. Today, ECUs control or finely tune a wide array of critical functions, including steering, acceleration, braking, and dashboard displays. More importantly, as university researchers documented in papers published in 2010 and 2011, on-board components such as CD players, Bluetooth for hands-free calls, and "telematics" units for OnStar and similar road-side services make it possible for an attacker to remotely execute malicious code.
The research is still in its infancy, but its implications are unsettling. Trick a driver into loading the wrong CD or connecting the Bluetooth to the wrong handset, and it's theoretically possible to install malicious code on one of the ECUs. Since the ECUs communicate with one another using little or no authentication, there's no telling how far the hack could extend.
Later this week at the Defcon hacker conference, researchers plan to demonstrate an arsenal of attacks that can be performed on two popular automobiles: a Toyota Prius and a Ford Escape, both 2010 models. Starting with the premise that it's possible to infect one or more of the ECUs remotely and cause them to send instructions to other nodes, Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek have developed a series of attacks that can carry out a range of scary scenarios. The researchers work for Twitter and security firm IOActive respectively.
Among the attacks: suddenly engaging the brakes of the Prius, yanking its steering wheel, or causing it to accelerate. On the Escape, they can disable the brakes when the SUV is driving slowly. With an $80,000 grant from the DARPA Cyber Fast Track program, they have documented the cars' inner workings and included all the code needed to make the attacks work in the hopes of coming up with new ways to make vehicles that are more resistant to hacking.
"Currently, there is no easy way to write custom software to monitor and interact with the ECUs in modern automobiles," a white paper documenting their work states. "The fact that a risk of attack exists but there is not a way for researchers to monitor or interact with the system is distressing. This paper is intended to provide a framework that will allow the construction of such tools for automotive systems and to demonstrate the use on two modern automobiles."
The hacking duo reverse-engineered the vehicles' CAN, or controller area networks, to isolate the code one ECU sends to another when requesting it take some sort of action, such as turning the steering wheel or disengaging the brakes. They discovered that the network has no mechanism for positively identifying the ECU sending a request or using an authentication passcode to ensure a message sent to a controller is coming from a trusted source. These omissions make it easy for them to monitor all messages sent over the network and to inject phony messages that masquerade as official requests from a trusted ECU.
"By examining the CAN on which the ECUs communicate, it is possible to send proprietary messages to the ECUs in order to cause them to take some action, or even completely reprogram the ECU," the researchers wrote in their report. "ECUs are essentially embedded devices, networked together on the CAN bus. Each is powered and has a number of sensors and actuators attached to them."
Using a computer connected to the cars' On-Board Diagnostic System, Miller and Valasek were able to cause the vehicles to do some scary things. For instance, by tampering with the so-called Intelligent Park Assist System of the Prius, which helps drivers parallel park, they were able to jerk the wheel of the vehicle, even when it's moving at high speeds. The feat takes only seconds to perform, but it involved a lot of work to initially develop, since it required requests made in precisely the right sequence from multiple ECUs. By replaying the request in the same order, they were able to control the steering even when the Prius wasn't in reverse, as is usually required when invoking the park assist system. They developed similar techniques to control acceleration, braking, and other critical functions, as well as ways to change readings displayed by speedometers, odometers, and other dashboard features.
For a video demonstration of the hacks, see this segment from Monday's The Today Show. In it, both Toyota and the Ford Motor company emphasize that the manipulations Miller and Valasek carry out require physical access to the car's computer systems. That's a fair point, but it's also worth remembering the previous research showing that there are often more stealthy ways to commandeer a vehicle's on-board computers. The aim behind this latest project wasn't to develop new ways to take control but to show the range of things that are possible once that happens.
When combined with the previous research into hacking cars' Bluetooth and other interfaces, the proof-of-concept exploits should serve as a wake-up call not only to automobile manufacturers, but to anyone designing other so-called Internet-of-things devices. If Apple, Microsoft, and the rest of the computing behemoths have to invest heavily to ensure their products are hack-resistant, so too will those embedding tiny computers into their once-mundane wares. A car, TV, or even your washing machine that interacts with Internet-connected services is only nifty until someone gets owned.

Lutheran KOs Cards
STILLMAN VALLEY — Kendall Lawson didn't take a back seat to James Robinson on this night.
At least not at crunch time.
With Robinson, Rockford Lutheran's star sophomore running back, watching from the sidelines nursing cramps during most of the fourth quarter, Lawson slammed the door on a 33-28 win over conference rival Stillman Valley.
"I was over there, watching, and I was bummed that I was out. But, I had confidence in Kendall and the offense. I knew they would pull it out," said Robinson, who rushed for 192 yards and two touchdowns, and caught a 17-yard TD pass, all in less than three quarters of work. "This win is so important to us. It means we've got a shot at tying for the conference title, and it means we're getting better as a team."
Robinson returned to burst free for a 12-yard gain for the game's final third-down conversion with 41 seconds left after he had exited late in the third quarter and missed most of the fourth quarter with hamstring and calf cramps. That sealed the deal, and since Lutheran (7-1, 5-1 BNC) pulled off the key Big Northern Conference West victory, if Stillman Valley (7-1, 4-1) knocks off Winnebago (8-0, 5-0) in the regular-season finale, there will be a three-way tie for conference champ.
"Boy, I told our kids how far we've come — it's just amazing," Lutheran head coach Bruce Bazsali said. "Nobody respected us. We knew we had a lot to prove, and we knew this was the way to do it, right here."
Regardless of next week's outcome, there will be three dangerous teams from that side of the league headed to the playoffs. And Lutheran expects to build on the momentum gained from Friday night's road win for as long as it can. Lawson was 16-for-25 for 283 yards passing with a touchdown and two interceptions, and his 31-yard strike to wideout Tim Koehler set up Robinson's one-yard TD dive early in the third quarter to bump the lead to 13.
"We have to be able to keep things rolling if James isn't going off. A win like this is huge for us; for our confidence, this is huge," said Lawson, who also rushed for 36 yards and two TDs. "Stillman Valley just doesn't lose at home, and to be able to do this, with James banged up, we showed a lot out there tonight."
Down the stretch, the Crusaders covered up any mistake — they had two second-half turnovers — with a big play of their own — they reeled in a pair of fourth-quarter takeaways. While the Cardinals got 136 yards rushing from Zac Hare and 110 on the ground from Tristan Elliot, Lutheran racked up 523 yards of total offense in the win.

Playoff format could put pressure on Big Ten
Times in college football are a-changin', faster than athletic directors can keep up. If Ohio State wants to be part of the new college football playoff system to determine a champion, the Buckeyes need to beef up their schedule and hope a couple of conference powers find their way back to the top.
ESPN college football analyst and North Canton Hoover graduate Todd Blackledge spoke to the Pro Football Hall of Fame Luncheon Club on Monday and thinks strength of schedule will be a factor like it never has before. Next
season a panel of 13 people will pick the top four teams in the country to play in a
playoff format to determine a national champion.
Ohio State — as well as Blackledge's employer ESPN — needs Michigan and Penn State to return to glory, and soon. Blackledge, who led Penn State to the 1982 national title, believes the Nittany Lions are heading in that direction by hiring Vanderbilt's James Frankin as its head coach.
"I don't say this because I'm a Penn State guy, but I think the Big Ten desperately needs Penn State to be back," Blackledge said. "They need Penn State to be good. It's a big program. It's a big TV program. They need Michigan to be good. It's great what Wisconsin has done and it's great what Michigan State has done, but they don't have the same brand nationally as Michigan or Penn State. That's the bottom line.
"So the Big Ten needs it. The Big Ten Network needs it. ESPN needs it. ABC needs it and college football needs it."
The college football championship panel has some defined criteria it must use. However, perception and momentum will be a part of what each voter uses.
Will members of that committee be impressed with an unbeaten Ohio State team that whips an FCS school like Florida A&M and then runs through a watered down Big Ten schedule with wins over struggling powers Penn State and Michigan?
Blackledge believes the days of bringing in an overmatched opponent for a home game and the revenue it brings to the athletic department coffers could be ending.
"I get it; it's an economically driven deal ... but you play some of these teams you have no business playing," Blackledge said. "If strength of schedule becomes an issue, it will force the Ohio States, Michigan States and Alabamas to at least get one nonconference game in there that's a challenge and that will be a dynamic matchup. Then we all win. ESPN wins. College football wins and fans win."
Most Top 25 programs, however, schedule a game against overmatched FCS schools. Florida State, which won the national title, played Nevada, Bethune-Cookman and Idaho this past season.
Blackledge's point is well taken. This Big Ten will realign the conference next season with Ohio State being in the same division as Penn State, Michigan, Michigan State, Indiana, Maryland, and Rutgers. An OSU team that wins that division and beats, say, Wisconsin or Nebraska in the Big Ten Championship Game could be an impressive team to consider for the top four, particularly if the Buckeyes schedule a Top 25 nonconference team.
Next season, the real winner will be ESPN. The network has all six of the bowl games the new committee will find teams to play. Blackledge, who recently agreed to a new five-year contract with ESPN, will be the analyst on one of the semifinal bowl games and call the national title game on the radio.
"Will (the playoff system) solve all the problems? No," Blackledge said. "You're still going to have to make interesting decisions to determine who's No. 4 and who's No. 5. There's still going to be issues. But four is better than two."

In some Jewish homes this Hanukkah, families will celebrate with an alternative to the traditional potato latke: the boyo. These Turkish-style stuffed pastries — also known as bulemas, depending on their shape and the village their maker comes from — are made by Jews whose ancestors lived in the Ottoman Empire.
Traditionally, boyos were made for Shabbat (the Sabbath) and the Jewish holidays. But these busy days, they're reserved mostly for the holidays.
In Renee Ferrera's Portland, Ore., kitchen, every available space is taken over with boyo-making when the holidays roll around. For this Hanukkah, there are bowls of spinach and cheese filling, trays of dough, lines of uncooked boyos waiting for a dusting of Romano cheese, and racks and racks of golden pastries, cooling from the oven.
Ferrera's boyo recipe comes from the island of Rhodes, now part of Greece, from where her immediate family emigrated before World War II. The island once boasted a large Jewish population with its own distinct cuisine and a history that goes back at least to the second century B.C.
Influenced by places like Greece, Spain and Turkey, the Rhodesli Jewish population had a distinct culture all its own. The community was so strong that it was even called La Chica Yerushalayim, or "Little Jerusalem," in Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish language commonly spoken there.
Many Rhodesli Jews came to America in the early 20th century, with an influx to Seattle (and, later, to Portland). The remaining Jews on the island were sent to concentration camps during World War II.
Growing up, Ferrera and her cousins always looked forward to boyos on the holidays. But sometimes it got ugly.
"We would be sitting at the table, eating these like crazy," Ferrera remembers, "and then we would start fighting over who had how many. 'You can't have that one, I've only had one.' Literally, at the table, during the holidays. So finally, my mother, I think it was, said, 'That's enough! We work for two days, slaving over them, and you guys eat them down like candy. Next year, you're going to make them, not us!' And I'm sure my mother said that expecting us to say, 'Oh, no, we appreciate everything!' Instead, we said, 'OK. That's what we'll do.' "
That challenge was issued 25 years ago, and every year since, the cousins — now with grown kids of their own — have gathered together to make the boyos.
Ron Sidis has been there from the beginning. "There are times where every workstation is taken. There'll be four around the table rolling the boyos. I've always been the doughboy, always done the dough, from Day 1."
The dough is flaky and rich with oil and shortening — fitting for Hanukkah. And the holiday mood is warm, although there have been some squabbles over the years. The older generation was even booted out of the kitchen once over some dispute about an eggshell.
Sidis says that continuing the tradition meant a lot to him. Even after his mother got Alzheimer's, and no longer spoke, she would continue to help out. "We would pick her up and bring her over. And she actually took each boyo and put it in the Romano cheese for us. And she didn't have to talk — she was just there helping us. She did that, I think, up to the year before she died."
Ferrera says that pulling out her mother's handwritten recipe for the boyos every year connects her to family members who are no longer around — and to the larger history of Jews from Rhodes.
"At the synagogue in Rhodes, there's a big plaque. And it has the last names of all the families that lived on the island that were taken off during World War II and taken to the concentration camp," she says. "Every single family name in my whole extended family is listed on that plaque."
Today, there are just a handful of Jews on Rhodes, and the population of Rhodesli Jews in Portland is also dwindling. But as the cousins divide up the nearly 150 boyos on Ferrera's counter, this tradition feels very much alive.
Recipe from Vi Ferrera and Auntie "O" (Olson Babani)
Dough Ingredients
2 cups water (warm but not hot, 105 to 115 degrees)
2 packages active dry yeast (not fast-rising)
Mix above together and let bubble.
5 1/2 to 6 cups flour (unbleached)
2 teaspoons salt
oil and shortening
Filling Ingredients
Large Bowl Spinach **
1/3 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt (taste after cheese is added to see if it needs the salt)
1 egg, beaten
1 cup crumbled feta cheese (or more, to taste)
1 cup grated Romano cheese (or more, to taste), plus additional for topping
** Ferrera usually buys one 2 1/2-pound bag of spinach, then washes once, spins in the salad spinner, chops 1/2-inch thick, and lays out on a table to dry overnight, with cloths under and paper towels over spinach. If it is warm, turn spinach once.
Note: The dough can be made the night before — after Step 4, set in the refrigerator in pan of oil, covered with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. Bring dough to room temperature before using.
1. Knead dough very well until it forms a soft dough (8 to 10 minutes). If using a mixer with a dough hook, knead for 8 to 10 minutes after dough has hooked.
2. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Make them into patties and place on a cloth that is floured. Oil the top of each patty and cover well in a warm location. Expose to as little air as possible. Let rise for half an hour or more, until double in size.
3. Take each patty and roll out with a rolling pin to form as large a piece as possible without developing holes. Do this on a floured surface. Spread a thin layer of shortening over stretched dough.
4. Roll tightly along the long edge into a cylinder, like a jelly roll, and set each roll into a pan of oil (1/2-inch deep). Cover with wax paper or plastic wrap and a cloth and set aside for one hour or more to rise.
5. Put together spinach mixture, using dry spinach chopped about 1/2-inch wide. Put flour in bowl, then add spinach. Mix together, then add other ingredients.
6. Pull off or cut a small piece of dough, about the size of an egg, and roll until dough is very thin. Add spinach mixture and form boyo so dough completely encloses spinach mixture. Use oil on work surface if necessary. Coil into a round shape and place on a greased or parchment-lined pan, and sprinkle with additional Romano cheese.
7. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until brown. Cool on rack.
Makes about 3 dozen small boyos.
This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Scott Simon. In many Jewish homes, families are grating potatoes even as we speak to fry up latkes tonight for the first night of Hanukkah. But a few families are making a different treat - something called boyos. These savory - I hope they're savory - coiled pastries are made by Jews with roots in the Ottoman Empire. Deena Prichep visits one Oregon family that's kept their boyo-making tradition going for several generations.
DEENA PRICHEP, BYLINE: Every available space in Renee Ferrera's Portland kitchen is taken over with boyos. There are bowls of spinach and cheese filling, trays of uncooked boyos waiting for a dusting of Romano cheese...
RENEE FERRERA: OK. Ron, I'm doing your job here.
PRICHEP: ...and racks and racks of golden pastries cooling from the oven.
FERRERA: OK. We have a tray ready.
PRICHEP: Ferrera's boyo recipe comes from Aegean island of Rhodes, with its mix of Greek and Turkish cuisines. Her family came from there a few generations back. Boyos are also called bulemas and were traditionally made for Shabbat and holidays. But these busy days, it's usually just the holidays. Growing up, Ferrera and her cousins always looked forward to them.
FERRERA: We would be sitting at the table eating these like crazy. And then we would start fighting over who had how many. You know, you can't have that one, I've only had one. This is my second. Literally, at the table during the holiday.
PRICHEP: Needless to say, this behavior did not go over too well.
FERRERA: So, finally, my mother, I think it was, said: That's enough. You kids don't understand how hard it is to make these. We work for two days, slaving over them, and you guys eat them down like candy. Next year, you're going to make them, not us. And I'm sure my mother said it expecting us to say, oh, no, we appreciate everything. Instead, we said: OK. That's what we'll do.
PRICHEP: That challenge was issued 25 years ago, and every year since then, the cousins - now with grown kids of their own - have gathered together to make the boyos. Pulling out the handwritten recipe every year connects the cousins to family that's no longer around. And Renee Ferrera says it's especially important, given their history.
FERRERA: At the synagogue in Rhodes, there's a big plaque that has the last names of all the families that were taken to the concentration camp. And every single family name in my whole extended family is listed on that plaque.
PRICHEP: Today, there are just a handful of Jews left on Rhodes. But in this kitchen, there's a full-swing boyo production line. Cousin Ron Sidis comes every year.
RON SIDIS: There are times where every workstation is taken. And there'll be four around the table rolling the boyos. I've always been the doughboy. I've always done the dough, from day one.
PRICHEP: As befitting an Ottoman Hanukkah tradition, the dough is rich and flaky with oil. And as befitting any holiday, the mood in this kitchen is warm. Although there have been some squabbles over the years.
SIDIS: It wasn't that bad.
FERRERA: Yes, it was. You kicked out my mother from my house, even. It was my house and you kicked her out.
SIDIS: You remember we were talking about the ruffles being feathered.
FERRERA: And that's as serious as it gets, too.
PRICHEP: Although the older generation was banned from the kitchen - the fight had something to do with an eggshell - they were eventually let back in. And seeing the tradition continue meant a lot to them.
SIDIS: After my mother, she got Alzheimer's, and we would pick her up and bring her over. And she actually took each boyo and put it in the Romano cheese for us. I mean, she didn't have to talk, and she was just there helping us.
PRICHEP: Even when Ron's mother couldn't remember the words, she still remembered how to make the boyos. And as the cousins joke back and forth and divvy up nearly 150 boyos in the kitchen, it's clear that the tradition will stay with them as well. For NPR News, I'm Deena Prichep, in Portland, Oregon.

The Best Christmas Indie Tunes of 2016: Listen to them all HERE!
My very best alternative indie music tunes for Christmas time. You've come to the right place if you like to discover new seasonal songs that ring all the right (sleigh) bells! Here's my Playlist...
Written by Amelia Gregory
It's nearly Christmas so it must be time for my annual round up of beautiful, interesting, weird and fantastical seasonal tunes, many located this year via Twitter. If you're reading this in years to come, do get in touch and tell me about your tune so I can include it! That's what San Diego band Pony Death Ride did a few months back.
Nothing Beats Old People at Christmas was actually released last year and features in the Pony Death Ride annual Christmas show. Look away if you are easily offended, it takes a kooky (and not entirely generous) look at those always tricky family dynamics. Boy can I relate.
Moving on, Low have come up with a gorgeous lilting song that celebrates friendship, Some Hearts (at Christmas Time). I appreciate my true friends more than ever at this time of year.
