1401 S. Clark Street, Suite 10800,
Arlington, VA 22202-3259,
(703) 603-7740.
Many items on the Procurement List are identified in the General Services Administration (GSA) Supply Catalog and GSA’s Customer Service Center Catalogs with a black square and the words “NIB/NISH Mandatory Source,” and in similar catalogs issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). GSA, DLA, and VA are central supply agencies from which other Federal agencies are required to purchase certain supply items on the Procurement List.
(a) The 41 U.S.C. chapter 85 requires the Government to purchase supplies or services on the Procurement List, at prices established by the Committee, from AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies if they are available within the period required. When identical supplies or services are on the Procurement List and the Schedule of Products issued by Federal Prison Industries, Inc., ordering offices shall purchase supplies and services in the following priorities:
(1) Supplies:
(i) Federal Prison Industries, Inc. (41 U.S.C. chapter 8504).
(ii) AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies.
(iii) Commercial sources.
(2) Services:
(i) AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies.
(ii) Federal Prison Industries, Inc., or commercial sources.
(b) No other provision of the FAR shall be construed as permitting an exception to the mandatory purchase of items on the Procurement List.
(c) The Procurement List identifies those supplies for which the ordering office must obtain a formal waiver (8.604) from Federal Prison Industries, Inc., before making any purchases from AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies.
(a) Ordering offices shall obtain supplies and services on the Procurement List from the central nonprofit agency or its designated AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies, except that supplies identified on the Procurement List as available from DLA, GSA, or VA supply distribution facilities shall be obtained through DLA, GSA, or VA procedures. If a distribution facility cannot provide the supplies, it shall inform the ordering office, which shall then order from the AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency designated by the Committee.
(b) Supply distribution facilities in DLA and GSA shall obtain supplies on the Procurement List from the central nonprofit agency identified or its designated AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency.
Central nonprofit agencies may authorize ordering offices to transmit orders for specific supplies or services directly to an AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency. The written authorization remains valid until it is revoked by the central nonprofit agency or the Committee. The central nonprofit agency shall specify the normal delivery or performance lead time required by the nonprofit agency. The ordering office shall reflect this lead time in its orders.
(a) When the direct order process has not been authorized, the ordering office shall submit a letter request for allocation (requesting the designation of the AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency to produce the supplies or perform the service) to the central nonprofit agency designated in the Procurement List. Ordering offices shall request allocations in sufficient time for a reply, for orders to be placed, and for the nonprofit agency to produce the supplies or provide the service within the required delivery or performance schedule.
(b) The ordering office’s request to the central nonprofit agency for allocation shall include the following information:
(1) For supplies—Item name, stock number, latest specification, quantity, unit price, date delivery is required, and destination to which delivery is to be made.
(2) For services—Type and location of service required, latest specification, work to be performed, estimated volume, and required date or dates for completion.
(3) Other requirements; e.g., packing, marking, as necessary.
(c) When an allocation is received, the ordering office shall promptly issue an order to the specified AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency or to the central nonprofit agency, as instructed by the allocation. If the issuance of an order is to be delayed for more than 15 days beyond receipt of the allocation, or canceled, the ordering office shall advise the central nonprofit agency immediately.
(d) Ordering offices may issue orders without limitation as to dollar amount and shall record them upon issuance as obligations. Each order shall include, as a minimum, the information contained in the request for allocation. Ordering offices shall also include additional instructions necessary for performance under the order; e.g., on the handling of Government-furnished property, reports required, and notification of shipment.
(a) The central nonprofit agency shall inform the ordering office of changes in lead time experienced by its AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies to minimize requests for extension once the ordering office places an order.
(b) The ordering office shall grant a request by a central nonprofit agency or AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency for revision in the delivery or completion schedule, if feasible. If extension of the delivery or completion date is not feasible, the ordering office shall notify the appropriate central nonprofit agency and request that it reallocate the order, or grant a purchase exception authorizing acquisition from commercial sources.
(c) When an AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency fails to perform under the terms of an order, the ordering office shall make every effort to resolve the noncompliance with the nonprofit agency involved and to negotiate an adjustment before taking action to cancel the order. If the problem cannot be resolved with the nonprofit agency, the ordering office shall refer the matter for resolution first to the central nonprofit agency and then, if necessary, to the Committee.
(d) When, after complying with 8.705-4(c), the ordering office determines that it must cancel an order, it shall notify the central nonprofit agency and, if practical, request a reallocation of the order. When the central nonprofit agency cannot reallocate the order, it shall grant a purchase exception permitting use of commercial sources, subject to approval by the Committee when the value of the purchase exception is $25,000 or more.
(a) Ordering offices may acquire supplies or services on the Procurement List from commercial sources only if the acquisition is specifically authorized in a purchase exception granted by the designated central nonprofit agency.
(b) The central nonprofit agency shall promptly grant purchase exceptions when—
(1) The AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies cannot provide the supplies or services within the time required, and commercial sources can provide them significantly sooner in the quantities required; or
(2) The quantity required cannot be produced or provided economically by the AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies.
(c) The central nonprofit agency granting the exception shall specify the quantity and delivery or performance period covered by the exception.
(d) When a purchase exception is granted, the contracting officer shall—
(1) Initiate purchase action within 15 days following the date of the exception or any extension granted by the central nonprofit agency; and
(2) Provide a copy of the solicitation to the central nonprofit agency when it is issued.
(e) The Committee may also grant a purchase exception, under any circumstances it considers appropriate.
(a) The prices of items on the Procurement List are fair market prices established by the Committee. All prices for supplies ordered under this subpart are f.o.b. origin.
(b) Prices for supplies are normally adjusted semiannually. Prices for services are normally adjusted annually.
(c) The Committee may request the agency responsible for acquiring the supplies or service to assist it in establishing or revising the fair market price. The Committee has the authority to establish prices without prior coordination with the responsible contracting office.
(d) Price changes shall normally apply to all orders received by the AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency on or after the effective date of the change. In special cases, after considering the views of the ordering office, the Committee may make price changes applicable to orders received by the AbilityOne participating nonprofit agency prior to the effective date of the change.
(e) If an ordering office desires packing, packaging, or marking of supplies other than the standard pack as provided on the Procurement List, any difference in costs shall be included as a separate item on the nonprofit agency’s invoice. The ordering office shall reimburse the nonprofit agency for these costs.
(f) Ordering offices may make recommendations to the Committee at any time for price revisions for supplies and services on the Procurement List.
(a) Delivery is accomplished when a shipment is placed aboard the vehicle of the initial carrier. The time of delivery is the date shipment is released to and accepted by the initial carrier.
(b) Shipment is normally under Government bills of lading. However, for small orders, ordering offices may specify other shipment methods.
(c) When shipments are under Government bills of lading, the bills of lading may accompany orders or be otherwise furnished promptly. Failure of an ordering office to furnish bills of lading or to designate a method of transportation may result in an excusable delay in delivery.
(d) AbilityOne participating nonprofit agencies shall include transportation costs for small shipments paid by the nonprofit agencies as an item on the invoice. The ordering office shall reimburse the nonprofit agencies for these costs.
The ordering office shall make payments for supplies or services on the Procurement List within 30 days after shipment or after receipt of a proper invoice or voucher.

Software Engineer & Founder by heart.
Build stuff & Hang around smart people.
Hi,
My name is Hoanh An and I am a software engineer. Before reading any further, let me tell you my story.
It all started when I was in high school.
I was so obsessed with technology that I wanted to own every devices that I could reach.
Everyday, I would go to different forums, buy and sell things online.
I owned different types of Blackberry, Android phones and all kind of iPod and iPhone generation.
I took a lot of time playing with them, understood them and then eventually started a business.
Since it was the time that smartphones became to gain their popularity, the needs for used devices was also increased.
I made money by buying and selling many of them, along with advising and troubleshooting services.
I did that for 3 years and stopped in 2016, right after I graduated high school, because I wanted to do something different.
I wanted to start a tech company, like Apple or Google. It was a very spontaneous moment. Sadly, I used to believe that I could hire engineers to work for me and all I needed to do was to lead them. I was wrong.
I was totally wrong. I found out what most founders had to start a successful company was a solid technical background. I did not have one. I did not know how to code nor know anything about computer architecture. I knew that I had to change.
I committed to work hard to become a great engineer. Time passed, I chose to devote my time and focus on software engineering since it attracted me more than anything else.
Right now, I am currently a sophomore at Bennington College where I study Math and Computer Science. I know, Bennington is not a technical school at all. It's not even in the top 10 liberal arts colleges. I will tell you why it fits me well.
Firstly, classes are small and professors are extremely supportive. Think about startups, they are small and performance can be measured so there’s a lot of potential for gain. Secondly, most professors are technical founders so they know what they are talking about when it comes to technical and non-technical problems. Last but not least, I would not let school interfere with my education. In other words, I am continuously learning new things everyday.
My lifetime mission is to either join a breakout startup or start my own. As long as I can constantly build stuff and work on challenging problems, I would be happy.
In my freetime, I enjoy building fun projects, honing my knowledge in science and engineering. Otherwise,
I would probably doing speedcubing, powerlifting, listening to lossless audio, or enjoying arthouse cinema. I talk about more about them in my blog.
Fact #1: When I was in secondary school, my personal record for 3x3 Rubik’s cube was around 15 seconds.
Fact #2: Right now, I am squatting and deadlifting 1.25 times my bodyweight and aiming to lift twice in the end of next year. I am hoping to build a solid strength then moving to Olympic weightlifting someday.
Fact #3: I would definitely invest in an expensive hi-fi audio system if I had “a small loan of a million dollars”
Fact #4: I think Eastern movies has more depth than Western’s since they are lack of popularity and sometimes underrated.
Redesigned library’s website architecture that improved scalability by 100%.
Implemented a new responsive interface for the whole website, 22 pages in total.
Migrated all content to new system.
Built the first publications inventory for the Vice President.
Implemented the first Counselor Information Form with Technolutions Slate to fill a gap in communication with high school counselors.
Implemented an algorithm for iOS application 30Shine that let users make reservation at popular barbershop 10% faster.
Won 2 company’s hackathons.
Attracted 3000 students and professors in STEM Day 2015.
Had successfully invited the Vietnam Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science and Technology to be guest speakers.
Became one of top sellers in Northern area by providing used Apple products, including consulting and hardware & software troubleshooting services.
Increased profit by 100% in the summer.
Founded and raised a total of 20,000 dollars for series of organizations: AmsConnect’s annual meetings and career orientations, The Bookler’s books exchange fairs, LaMode’s fashion shows and exhibitions.
Thanks for stopping by. Contact me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you like. Cheers.

The dialog procedures that post messages for the user are based on Itcl classes described below. These classes can also be invoked directly by the user, providing much more flexibility. They also serve as base classes for more elaborate dialogs.
Many messages require an OK
button that has the effect of
dismissing the message. The Message class is derived from Dialog and adds this feature.
::tycho::Message .x -text {A simple message window}
wm deiconify .x
addButton
method
(if you already pressed the close button, you will need to
double-click on the above code again!):
.x addButton pushme -text {Push Me} -command {::tycho::post thanks}
The class ErrorMessage is derived from
Message and simply adds the
"Stack Trace
" button.
::tycho::ErrorMessage .xx -text {An error message}
wm deiconify .xx

There is a hole in the sewer wall, through which you see the lights. You see that they are enchanted lights often used in the kingdom's mines. You suspect that the gas in the sewer entered through this hole. The gas is toxic and is likely the reason the sewer and rats have begun to contract the plague. But to report this would be costly for the kingdom, as mining would have to be on hold while the walls are repaired. What do you do?

Sensex scales new high, soars 530 points; Nifty closes above 12,050
After touching its record intra-day high of 40,931.71, Sensex ended 529.82 points, or 1.31 per cent, higher at 40,889.23.
by PTIMumbai: Benchmark Sensex on Monday surged 530 points to hit a fresh closing high of 40,889.23, driven by gains mainly in telecom, metal and auto stocks amid renewed optimism over US-China trade truce.
After touching its record intra-day high of 40,931.71, the 30-share BSE Sensex ended 529.82 points, or 1.31 per cent, higher at 40,889.23.
Similarly, the broader NSE Nifty settled just shy of its life-time closing high, up 159.35 points, or 1.34 per cent, at 12,073.75.
Bharti Airtel was the top gainer in the Sensex pack, rallying over 7.20 per cent, followed by Tata Steel 4.99 per cent, IndusInd Bank 3.49 per cent, Axis Bank 3.26 per cent and HDFC 2.57 per cent.
On the other hand, ONGC fell 2.17 per cent and Yes Bank shed 1.70 per cent.
According to traders, domestic benchmarks followed global equities which were enthused by reports that a preliminary trade deal between the US and China may be signed by the end of this year.
Bourses in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Seoul and Tokyo were trading up to 1.50 per cent higher.
Stocks in Europe were also trading on a positive note.
On the currency front, the rupee was flat against the US dollar at 71.71.
Brent futures, the global oil benchmark, rose 0.11 per cent to USD 62.44 per barrel.

| cols_move {gt} | R Documentation |
On those occasions where you need to move columns this way or that way, we
can make use of the cols_move()
function. While it's true that the movement
of columns can be done upstream of gt, it is much easier and less error
prone to use the function provided here. The movement procedure here takes
one or more specified columns (in the columns
argument) and places them to
the right of a different column (the after
argument). The ordering of the
columns
to be moved is preserved, as is the ordering of all other columns
in the table.
cols_move(data, columns, after)
data |
A table object that is created using the |
columns |
The column names to move to as a group to a different position. The order of the remaining columns will be preserved. |
after |
A column name used to anchor the insertion of the moved columns. All of the moved columns will be placed to the right of this column. |
The columns supplied in columns
must all exist in the table and none of
them can be in the after
argument. The after
column must also exist and
only one column should be provided here. If you need to place one or columns
at the beginning of the column series, the cols_move_to_start()
function
should be used. Similarly, if those columns to move should be placed at the
end of the column series then use cols_move_to_end()
.

Its well past midnight, thoughts after thoughts haunt my heart
Was it the best solution?
Leting go was not my favorite part of it all
It all comes down to the reason!
Maybe someday the reasons will be clear
Maybe someday I will understand
Maybe someday this will get better
Maybe someday things will change
Maybe just maybe....
Did you see how happy they were?
Did you hear them whisper?
I hoped that you would come to my rescue
I didnt believe you
But I still placed my hope on you

HONG KONG (AP) — Overturned chairs. Empty plastic bottles scattered around. Food leftovers rotting in the canteen.
Most of the protesters who took over the Hong Kong Polytechnic University have left following clashes with police, but an unknown number have remained inside, hoping somehow to avoid arrest.
Six masked protesters surrendered before dawn Friday, bringing to about 30 the number that have come out the previous day from the campus surrounded by police.
Tang Chun-Keung, head of the Hong Kong Association of the Heads of Secondary Schools, said that the holdouts include minors, numbering less than 10, and they are emotionally unstable. Tang entered the campus Friday with some others but failed to find them.
“We have lawyers and social workers ready to provide assistance and we hope to persuade them to leave the campus. We are worried our work is getting more and more difficult because students are refusing to meet us,” he told reporters.
Police Commissioner Tang Ping-keung said that those under 18 can leave, although they may face charges later, and pledged impartial treatment for all adults facing arrest.
“The condition is deteriorating and dangerous, there are many explosives and petrol bombs inside ... we hope to end the matter peacefully,” he said, adding police haven’t set any deadline to end the siege.

While there are many things in our society that we shove down people’s throat, it has already become and will be even more difficult to enforce things on people. The fundamental challenge central to the well-being of the humanity has not and will not change. This challenge is how we promote peace, love, and respect. As we start to understand and acknowledge the growing importance of comparative judgement, we have to think deepely about the 'art of presentation.' How can we help people choose one in favor of the other? How can we help people make positive decisions that collectively add up to the greater good of all?


The software performs an operation at a privilege level that is higher than the minimum level required, which creates new weaknesses or amplifies the consequences of other weaknesses.
New weaknesses can be exposed because running with extra privileges, such as root or Administrator, can disable the normal security checks being performed by the operating system or surrounding environment. Other pre-existing weaknesses can turn into security vulnerabilities if they occur while operating at raised privileges.
Privilege management functions can behave in some less-than-obvious ways, and they have different quirks on different platforms. These inconsistencies are particularly pronounced if you are transitioning from one non-root user to another. Signal handlers and spawned processes run with the privilege of the owning process, so if a process is running as root when a signal fires or a sub-process is executed, the signal handler or sub-process will operate with root privileges.
Spider Man, the well-known comic superhero, lives by the motto "With great power comes great responsibility." Your software may need special privileges to perform certain operations, but wielding those privileges longer than necessary can be extremely risky. When running with extra privileges, your application has access to resources that the application's user can't directly reach. For example, you might intentionally launch a separate program, and that program allows its user to specify a file to open; this feature is frequently present in help utilities or editors. The user can access unauthorized files through the launched program, thanks to those extra privileges. Command execution can happen in a similar fashion. Even if you don't launch other programs, additional vulnerabilities in your software could have more serious consequences than if it were running at a lower privilege level.
The detection methods for execution with unnecessary privileges vulnerabilities are:
Manual Analysis. This weakness can be detected using tools and techniques that require manual (human) analysis, such as penetration testing, threat modeling, and interactive tools that allow the tester to record and modify an active session. These may be more effective than strictly automated techniques. This is especially the case with weaknesses that are related to design and business rules.
Black Box. Use monitoring tools that examine the software's process as it interacts with the operating system and the network. This technique is useful in cases when source code is unavailable, if the software was not developed by you, or if you want to verify that the build phase did not introduce any new weaknesses. Examples include debuggers that directly attach to the running process; system-call tracing utilities such as truss (Solaris) and strace (Linux); system activity monitors such as FileMon, RegMon, Process Monitor, and other Sysinternals utilities (Windows); and sniffers and protocol analyzers that monitor network traffic. Attach the monitor to the process and perform a login. Look for library functions and system calls that indicate when privileges are being raised or dropped. Look for accesses of resources that are restricted to normal users. Note that this technique is only useful for privilege issues related to system resources. It is not likely to detect application-level business rules that are related to privileges, such as if a blog system allows a user to delete a blog entry without first checking that the user has administrator privileges.
The following mitigation methods for execution with unnecessary privileges are available:
Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment. For example, database applications rarely need to run as the database administrator, especially in day-to-day operations.
Isolate the privileged code. Identify the functionality that requires additional privileges, such as access to privileged operating system resources. Wrap and centralize this functionality if possible, and isolate the privileged code as much as possible from other code. Raise your privileges as late as possible, and drop them as soon as possible to avoid CWE-271. Avoid weaknesses such as CWE-288 and CWE-420 by protecting all possible communication channels that could interact with your privileged code, such as a secondary socket that you only intend to be accessed by administrators.
Validate all input. Perform extensive input validation for any privileged code that must be exposed to the user and reject anything that does not fit your strict requirements.
Double-check that privileges have been dropped successfully. When you drop privileges, ensure that you have dropped them successfully to avoid CWE-273. As protection mechanisms in the environment get stronger, privilege-dropping calls may fail even if it seems like they have succeeded.
If circumstances force you to run with extra privileges, then determine the minimum access level necessary. First identify the different permissions that the software and its users will need to perform their actions, such as file read and write permissions, network socket permissions, and so forth. Then explicitly allow those actions while denying all else. Perform extensive input validation and canonicalization to minimize the chances of introducing a separate vulnerability. It is more effective to just drop the privileges.
Verify that the application works correctly in a hardened environment. Ensure that your software runs properly under the Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) or an equivalent hardening configuration guide, which many organizations use to limit the attack surface and potential risk of deployed software.

--- layout: plainarticle permalink: /alumni-association/ title: The Alumni Association e.V. ---
The Alumni Association was founded in June 2004 by the first Jacobs University graduating class. We are the growing network of (former) Jacobs University students and friends. The Alumni Association Board and the Alumni Officer work hard to provide you with the infrastructure to stay in touch with friends and former classmates, promote personal growth and give back to your alma mater. And we invite you to join us! Regular events, an annual Homecoming, Alumni Chapters in more and more cities around Europe and the Globe, an intranet with forums, profiles, and job offers, an Alumni Fund for donations (such as for scholarships), access to the gym and the IRC as well as numerous opportunities for participation provide added value for Alumni and the entire Jacobs University community, furthering commitment to Jacobs University.
Contact the Alumni Office! They are sure to be able to assist in finding your long lost roommate.
In early 2008 Jacobs Alumni & Friends GmbH was formally set up as a company owned 99% by the Alumni Association, with the remainder owned by Jacobs University. The purpose of the organization is to provide the legal framework for the alumni to become shareholders in the university. It is a new structure that comes as an extension of the existing Alumni Association. Jacobs Alumni & Friends GmbH has its own supervisory board, consisting of three alumni and three other members represented by figures from public life. It also sends a representative, i.e. the president of the Alumni Association e.V., to the two highest supervisory bodies, the Board of Trustees and the Board of Governors of the university. At this key position the alumni body is represented in the decision making process.


Bullied kids to be taught how to fight better for free in new classes
Free self-defence classes are being offered to children across the country ahead of Anti-Bullying Week, but learning how to knock someone over is far from the only benefit to signing up
by James Andrews, http://www.facebook.com/jameswritesmoney/Learning martial arts has a lot more benefits than just getting better at fighting - but we can't deny that's part of the draw.
So, as part of Anti-Bullying Week 2019 (Monday 11 – Friday 15 November), Childcare.co.uk has teamed up with the Jiu Jitsu Foundation to offer its members free junior self-defence classes.
Childcare.co.uk founder Richard Conway said: “ We’re very excited to announce our partnership with The Jiu Jitsu Foundation for a second year – last year’s campaign was a huge success, so it’s fantastic to be able to offer even more free spaces to our members this year.
"We hope that by offering these classes, hundreds more children across the UK will have the chance to build their confidence and learn something new!”
On top of the direct self-defence benefits, martial arts classes can help young children build self-confidence, develop leadership skills, make friends and become more active.
Gareth Horgan from the Jiu Jitsu Foundation, said: “Our aim is to bring consistently high-quality Jiu Jitsu to as many people as possible across the globe.
"In doing so our Junior arm seek to provide life changing skills and experience for children, young adults and their families."
Children will not only learn jiu jitsu skills and situational awareness, they will also be encouraged to respect each other and develop their confidence.
The first 1,000 members of Childcare.co.uk to register their interest will get a full month of free classes for their child.
You can register your interest in the classes here .
