		"Center Counter Defense, The Portuguese Variation" by Selby Anderson, 1997 Pickard & Son, Paperback, Figurine Algebraic Notation 95pp., $14.95 Reviewed by Glenn Budzinski National Master Selby Anderson's "Center Counter Defense, The Portuguese Variation" is nothing if not esoteric.
		Continuing with the trend that is becoming more common in today's opening literature, this work examines a specific variation within the Center Counter (or Scandinavian) Defense, namely the line 1 e4 d5 2 ed5 Nf6 3 d4 Bg4, popularized by several Portuguese Masters.
		If you're seeking an alternative defense against e4, especially if you're already somewhat familiar with the Center Counter, the Portuguese Variation may have merit.

		This effort resulted in the identification of the CMV 2b protein in 1998 as one of the first two viral suppressors of gene silencing, in collaboration with Dr. David Baulcombe's group in the UK.
		We have previously proposed that the CMV 2b protein (Cmv2b) acted as a suppressor of host antiviral defense, based on its requirement for virulence and spread of CMV in host plant infections (Ding et al., 1994; 1995; 1996).
		RNA silencing of a GFP transgene (center) in leaves from Nicotiana benthamiana is suppressed by an animal (left; B2 protein of flock house virus) or a plant (right; 2b protein of tomato aspermy virus) viral suppressor, leading to enhanced GFP expression (lighter green/yellow areas).

		One of the problems with the counter gap vs a fifty defense is the tackle over your offensive tackle can give you fits when the fullback tries to fill on him for your tackle to pull.
		This problem is compounded when the nose slants into the side the linemen are pulling from, keeping the center from blocking backside.
		Against 50 fronts, we will set and show pass with the backside offensive tackle to influence the defensive tackle and set him up for the offensive guard to trap him.

		This is a far better place for it to appear, since the center of the screen is where your eyes will tend to be looking in the first place.
		To counter this, hoppers can perform mid-air maneuvers in order to try to make their paths less predictable, but in general (especially with the anti-hopping measures coming in 1.4) it's best to just avoid hopping when you know you're under close scrutiny from snipers -- it won't help you avoid getting hit.
		Concentrate on the task ahead of you; you're not going to be able to effectively deal with threats that are flanking you anyway, and your best defense from there will be to get to where you're headed and secure the area.

	Q&A: Data center security expert JP Callahan
		There needs to be a process that is attributable towards checks and balances that ensure that the people who have access to the data center are supposed to have access.
		People build these huge data centers and they do a lot of hardening of the facilities, but they don't put a lot of thought behind those processes that make those things function the way they should.
		If the mindset of the security guy is that this data center is the crown jewel, there are some things you have to worry about, but it's not nearly as important to the operation of the data center.
