To serve our users better in this time of heightened security concerns, we are instituting a reader check-in process. Using biometric technology, we will record and analyze identifiable physical characteristics of all visitors. You do not have to participate in the biometric identification process, but you must go through the security portal. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our zealous dedication to your safety.

| Q: |
What is biometrics?
|
| A: |
Biometrics is a cutting-edge technology that identifies people using precise measurement and analysis of physical traits. It includes techniques such as fingerprint and face recognition, voice verification and retina scanning. It has been used at the 2001 Super Bowl in Tampa to search the crowd for known criminals and in such movies as "Sneakers" and "Mission: Impossible" to further an otherwise unremarkable plot.

| Q: |
Must I agree to submit to the biometric identification process?
|
| A: |
Absolutely not! You will be given a choice whether or not you want to be safe. We understand that a certain percentage of our audience has something to hide.
|
| Q: |
Could a hacker gain access to my data?
|
| A: |
The chance of our security database being hacked is extremely small as our encryption technology and firewalls are not challenging enough to pique the interest of a skilled hacker.
