The National Industrial Security Program (NISPOM) is THE guidance for Defense Contractor Facility Security Officers. However, it doesn't always answer some questions these FSOs might have about protecting classified information. For example, suppose a defense contractor company has an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contract. In that contract, the facility is required to store information classified at the SECRET level. Do they need an alarm?

In this scenario, the FSO has only had to request the security clearance of employees required to perform on classified work at another facility. To date, classified work had not been performed or stored at the cleared facility. So far, she has done an excellent job of managing the clearances and has received a COMMENDABLE in her last DSS review.

IDS

Now, a delivery order requires the storage of SECRET documents on site. Fortunately the FSO has been preparing for such an opportunity. She has recently purchased an approved security container adequate for holding the classified items. However, she isn't sure whether or not the company needs to have an intrusion detection system (IDS).

So, does the cleared contractor storing SECRET information require an IDS? Do you think you know the answer?

Well, according to NISPOM, this situation does not require an IDS. SECRET information is only required to be stored in a GSA- approved security container. IDS is required for TOP SECRET and SECRET not stored in a GSA-approved container in a closed area. How many of you thought that IDS is always required?

This is where risk management comes in. IDS may be required, but not by NISPOM. However, if you live in a high crime area or life safety considerations require it, get the IDS. But only do so after assessing the risks. Many small companies do not have the vast security budgets of their larger colleagues. Many large companies may have CCTV, magnetic card readers, IDS systems and many other state of the art security measures as a "best practice" consideration. But many times, the return on investment may not be there if risks are low or non-existent.

An FSO can demonstrate value added by determining whether or not the need for IDS exists and then presenting the pros and cons to management. A terrible and costly mistake is to request security measures just because they are "industry standard". Know what NISPOM says, implement NISPOM requirements, but make an intelligent determination for all other security measures.

For people who did not know this yet, PTR and PTC sites are the same PTR stands for "paid to read" and PTC for "paid to click". These sites have been very popular through the net in the last few years. They give people a chance to earn real money with it.

However there are so many sites that it's just impossible to join them all, and we want a quality PTC/PTR sites that don't run off after some months with the money that many people clicked for. I've joined quite a lot of these sites and sometimes I encountered some sites that just didn't paid me. Luckily there are more paying sites then scamming ones.

PTC

It's always nice to join many PTC/PTR. For me they are just the perfect way to save some money for gifts and to go out. I'm always clicking on them while I'm chatting or surfing on the net so I barely notice anything about them.

Like I would say " A great way to earn extra money without doing almost any efforts for it and without even noticing it in my case"

Currently I'm writing some reviews about these PTC sites, but because of my lack of time I've only managed to write some good reviews about some of the best PTC/PTR sites. If you're planning to join a site then I would really recommend you to take a look at my little blog that will grow by time. It will give you as much information as possible.

The art of communicating authentically is a learned skill. It takes coaching and practice to do it well. Communicating authentically means being honest, open and thoughtful in what you say - and in how you listen and respond to what you hear. This article describes four skills that will help leaders communicate authentically.

Speak for Your Self

LRI

Effective leaders express their views directly. They state their concerns up front. One good way is to personalize your comments, taking responsibility for your positions, opinions and values, rather than offering generalizations or blaming others or outside forces. Say, "I feel disappointed about our progress," rather than, "This group is the pits."

The advantage of this approach is that it reduces defences by not placing general or even specific blame on others. No one can argue that you're not really concerned or that you're secretly more optimistic than you admit. "I would like us to begin promptly at nine" is clear; "You're late again! You hold us up every week" is guaranteed to provoke a defensive reaction.

Another way people hide their real positions is by burying them in questions. "Are you planning to make that statement in public?" is an attack, not a question. "I would rather you would not say that when we make our presentation" is also a negative comment, but at least you are directly acknowledging that this is your view, not an absolute judgment.

Does it seem like nitpicking? It's not really. The major difference is in the kind of response you seek to evoke from your listeners.

Tailor Your Communication Style

Everyone has a signature style of communicating. These styles can be scientifically broken down into four categories: Directors, Expressers, Thinkers and Harmonizers. This categorization enables you to discover your own style, and the style of others, and gain tips on how to make your communication more balanced and effective.

Once you understand your communication style, you'll have a deeper appreciation of what it takes to communicate into someone's "listening space." Directors, for example, want information in quick, bottom line bullet points. Expressers want a fuller exploration of different options and ideas. Thinkers want to hear the detailed thinking behind a proposal. And Harmonizers want to understand the impact of any proposal on people.

The most effective communicators tailor their style to fit their audience. By tailoring their style, they help people relax and feel more receptive to what they're saying. This makes them more successful as managers and leaders. As needed, they also make overt reference to differences in style to defuse tension and resolve conflicts between styles. This goes a long way toward building trust.

Be a Powerful Listener

Powerful listening is not a passive activity. A good listener concentrates not just on words, but on understanding the underlying point of view of the other person. Powerful listeners focus on subtle tones, facial expressions and context, and then respond in a way that demonstrates they have heard the speaker's meaning as well as the words. They listen to understand, not just to figure out how they're going to make their argument.

One way to be sure you understand exactly what the speaker means, and to communicate your understanding, is by reflecting back to the speaker what you believe he or she is saying. Paraphrasing does not mean just parroting their words. It means restating the speaker's position in your own words, taking into account the non-verbal signs you see and the tone of voice you hear.

Typical lead-in phrases for paraphrasing are "It sounds like..." or "I can see that..." Paraphrasing is also invaluable when you disagree with someone and must, nonetheless, offer an encouraging reply. Being able to express the speaker's position clearly says to the speaker that, even though you disagree with the position, you value him or her enough to listen carefully.

When you paraphrase, you also give the speaker a chance to clarify his or her position. He may say: "Yes, that's it." Or he may respond: "You know, let me clarify a bit." That sets the stage for a deeper conversation - one in which you can play the role of facilitator.

Remember that 60 percent of communication is non-verbal. In other words, if you listen only to what someone says, you're missing more than half of the conversation.

It's not enough to listen; you also must show that you are listening. Maintain eye contact, lean forward, nod, vocalize agreement when appropriate by saying, "I see," "Um hmm"; take notes if that is appropriate. Don't glance at your watch, focus on outside events, wear your dark glasses, cross your arms and lean back, watch TV, or wave to other people. Instead, teach yourself to focus entirely on the communication at hand.

Be Data Driven

When you're data-driven in your communication, you do two things:

First, you put your own assumptions on the table. "I assume that we're going to experience the same downturn in the economy everyone else in our industry is experiencing."

Second, you probe for missing data. You ask: "Does anyone have any data that would help me clarify my assumptions?"

When you're data-driven, you also look to get other people's assumptions and issues on the table. You ask: "Help me understand your thinking. What are you assuming will happen?"

When you're data-driven, you make sure you bring issues to the table. If there's a relevant conversation in the hallway, you raise it in front of everyone. If you're experiencing confusion or discomfort, you let people know (recognizing that if you're experiencing it, others are likely to be experiencing it, too). If there's an issue you feel you can't raise without suffering some grave consequence, you consult the chair or someone else in a position to help you develop a strategy.

When you're data-driven, you use concrete examples and specifics to help people get on the same page. You don't get mired in generalities; you introduce specific cases that help people understand whether you're talking about a 2% increase in spending - or a 20% increase.

Finally, when you're data-driven, you stay humble. You assume that you don't see things perfectly. You ask for other people's points of view. You are aware that human beings can fall prey to the "assumption of competence." You appreciate that people who assume they are competent are usually the least competent among us.

Se chung, also spelled se zhong is an inexpensive type of oolong tea produced in Anxi county of Fujian province in China. Anxi county is famous for being the origin of Tie Guan Yin Oolong (also known as Iron Goddess of Mercy), a delicious but very expensive variety of oolong tea. Se chung is not one particular variety of oolong, but rather, is a class of different oolongs, encompassing all oolongs produced in Anxi county, other than Tie Guan Yin. The name se chung means "colorful variety", which is appropriate given the diverse nature of these oolongs.

Why are se chung teas such a good bargain?

SE

The fame and recognition of Tie Guan Yin have resulted in the other oolongs produced in Anxi county being virtually ignored, not only by everyday tea drinkers but even by many tea connoisseurs. There is much less information on se zhong available on the web--google searches return roughly 40 times as many pages for Tie Guan Yin. As a result of these oolongs being ignored, their prices are very low. Se chung is often regarded as a "cheap" tea, with the implication that its low price equates to low quality.

However, humans have a well-studied tendency to attribute higher quality to goods purchased at a higher price. It is my personal belief, based on sampling a number of se chung and tie guan yin oolongs, that se chung teas are greatly undervalued and offer an extraordinarily good deal to price-conscious tea buyers.

Se chung oolongs have certain aspects of aroma and flavor that closely resemble Tie Guan Yin. Certain varieties may be attractive to tea drinkers seeking a cheaper alternative to Tie Guan Yin, whereas others are likely to appeal to oolong enthusiasts seeking to explore new teas with unique qualities of aroma and flavor.

Some Se Chung Varietals:

Se chung comes in different varieties, each of which is grown from a particular cultivar of the tea plant. Each of these cultivars has its own unique characteristics, resulting in a different aroma, flavor, and leaf shape.

• Huang Jin Gui, meaning Golden Osmanthus - Although scented teas, produced by scenting tea leaves with osmanthus flowers, are popular in China, this tea has been developed to have an aroma naturally resembling osmanthus flowers, even though it has not been scented with any flowers.
• Mao Xie, meaning Hairy Crab - This oolong tea has strongly serrated leaves covered in fine hairs, resulting in a finished leaf that sometimes resembles a miniature crab.
• Benshan - Named after a mountain in Anxi, this tea is often described as being very similar to Tie Guan Yin, to the point that some tea drinkers struggle to distinguish between the two teas.
• Qilan, meaning profound orchid - This type of oolong is often produced in a dark, more fully oxidized style, resulting in a sweet, dark cup of tea with a nutty aroma. It also is available in greener forms which are light and floral, with an aroma resembling orchid, the flower for which this tea is named.

Each of these types of se zhong oolong are available in different forms, with ranging levels of oxidation as well as different levels of roasting. The less oxidized and less roasted teas all have a lighter color and result in a richly aromatic cup of tea. The more heavily roasted teas and the more fully oxidized teas are darker. The more heavily oxidized teas resemble black tea somewhat more closely.

Generic se zhong:

Many tea companies sell generic se chung, not identified as any particular varietal. These teas are sometimes an unnamed variety, or blends of similar varieties. These teas can be extraordinarily inexpensive and offer great deals.

The more heavily oxidized teas resemble black tea somewhat more closely.

Generic se zhong:

Many tea companies sell generic se chung, not identified as any particular varietal. These teas are sometimes an unnamed variety, or blends of similar varieties. These teas can be extraordinarily inexpensive and offer great deals.
