text: 000 FXUS63 KGRR 260730 AFDGRR Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Grand Rapids MI 330 AM EDT TUE JUL 26 2016 LATEST UPDATE... Synopsis/Short Term/Long Term/Marine .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 329 AM EDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Warm and sunny weather is expected for Southwest Michigan today thanks to a large high pressure system that will cross the area during the daytime hours. A Canadian cold front will move south through Lower Michigan Wednesday bringing the chance for thunderstorms. A wave on the same cold front may bring additional showers and thunderstorms into the area for Thursday and Friday. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday) Issued at 329 AM EDT Tue Jul 26 2016 There is little question today will be sunny and warm with light winds thanks to a large high pressure system crossing the area. The real question is how much convection will we see with the Canadian cold front dropping south through the area Wednesday and will there be a strong enough wave on the front Thursday to bring the rain back north into Michigan? My short story is there is more than enough elevated instability for thunderstorms Wednesday, but the upper dynamics are not all that great. The moisture transport in the 1000/850 layer is not all that great either. Still it is a front and there is surface convergence so thunderstorms are possible for sure. As for the wave on the front being far enough north to bring precipitation to Southwest Michigan, seems the best bet is for it so stay south of the area but it will be a close call. .LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Monday) Issued at 329 AM EDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Chances for measurable rain don`t look great during the period. The highest chance, 30-40 percent, extends from Thursday night into Saturday. But that`s mainly because the ecmwf brings a low across northern Indiana and Ohio. This position is much farther south than the 12z version which showed a low moving across the northern cwa. The gfs meanwhile continues to show no low and thus retains a dry forecast. It seems like the ecmwf is having some issues while the gfs remains consistent. As such we`re leaning more toward a drier forecast than the wetter ecmwf would provide. For now we`ll lean toward the gfs by showing lower pops. After Saturday both the ecmwf and gfs show high pressure over Michigan so dry wx is expected. Highs in the lower 80s Friday and Saturday will climb to the mid 80s by Sunday and Monday. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night) Issued at 104 AM EDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Light winds and high dewpoints will likely lead to some fog after 5am. Look for 4-5sm br from 5-9am or so, then vfr with mostly clear skies. && .MARINE... Issued at 329 AM EDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Not much to worry about in the short term. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 1254 PM EDT Mon Jul 25 2016 No river flooding is expected through the week. Area wide rain of around an inch with locally up to 3 inches (mainly near Lake Michigan) fell this weekend. A small chance of rain is in the forecast Wednesday through Friday. River levels have risen and are at or above normal for this time of year. Even with the precipitation, no rivers should approach flood level. && .GRR Watches/Warnings/Advisories... MI...None. LM...None. && $$ SYNOPSIS...WDM SHORT TERM...WDM LONG TERM...99 AVIATION...04 HYDROLOGY...63 MARINE...WDM

Yeah, ya' know. You gotta have a standard. These days the measure of superfreakery is, for Dale Jordan's intents and purposes, the d.p. Five women meet the bar in dedicated scenes, the hottest of which is Pebbles go-'round the no-holes-barred bend, a trip she obviously enjoys.
Framing of the sex makes the utilitarian bed-in-a-room settings essential rather than redundant, and direction and editing are very fine indeed, both serving to notch up tension and heat progressively throughout each scene. Also of note is the closer with Priscilla, a no-talk all-action reflection of the preceding commercial coitus.
This is good porn.

You could no doubt do the same here at a Labour or Green's conference, as well as in every secondary school and university campus. Mana would be a little further to the Left again, in the kneecap them school.
I'm surprised The Standard is not playing this clip as advocacy.
For clarity, Peter Schiff did admit that 50% of the people he spoke to thought that it was a bad idea. However that is still a scary result.ReplyDelete

Maybe average chin. He did fight pretty good punchers and took solid shots from them. Mercer, Vitali, Briggs come to mind. A glassed jawed fighter would have fallen more often.
Well I see what you're saying but Lewis fought an old Mercer and many people thought Mercer actually won. Ok fine.
Also Briggs fought Lewis with a fractured right hand and still rocked him in 1. Vitali is widely considered to not be a one punch KO artist.

CY8C20xx7 device family supports water tolerance applications
Last Updated: June 13, 2012
Does the CY8C20xx7 device family support water tolerance applications?
Yes, the CY8C20xx7 device family supports shield electrodes on 5 ports pins. Each shield electrode can be enabled independently from other shield electrode. Maximum parasitic capacitance of shield electrode should be less than 100pF for a 3MHz sensor scan clock for the shield electrode to work perfectly. The shield electrode feature in CY8C20xx7 is ideal for implementing:
- Water tolerant buttons and sliders,
- Buttons and sliders in presence of metal objects and
- Proximity sensors.
Additionally, the shield electrode implementation also supports a shield-tank capacitor, which can be used to limit the bandwidth of shield electrode to lower radiated noise from shield electrode.

I wonder if that is real.
You think?
I wonder if that is real.
this is a forwarded message from a mailing list i am on. i wrote on my fun blog, but figured it is cool enough to be sent here as ot:.
from: rick moen
the ansible has been patented.
—– forwarded message from dan fingerman —–
date: thu, 12 jul 2007 18:04:18 -0700 (pdt)
from: dan fingerman
subject: patent for hyper-light-speed antenna
u.s. patent no. 6,025,810 is titled "hyper-light-speed antenna". it
claims an antenna that can send and receive information faster than
the speed of light.
the background of the invention is described:
all known radio transmissions use known models of time
and space dimensions for sending the rf signal.
the present invention has discovered the apparent existence
of a new dimension capable of acting as a medium for re
signals. initial benefits of penetrating this new dimension
include sending rf signals faster than the speed of light,
extending the effective distance of rf transmitters at the
same power radiated, penetrating known rf shielding devices,
and accelerating plant growth exposed to the by-product
energy of the rf transmissions.
the patent is available at:
in the past two weeks, ecards became a major threat.
ecards (or electronic greeting cards) were always a perfect social engineering scheme, open for abuse. with the storm worm and massive exploitation, i believe it has become prudent to filter out all ecard messages in your email systems.
further, some training or awareness information on this subject distributed to your organizations could be very useful.
gadi evron,
syngress was kind enough to allow me to post the chapter i wrote for botnets: the killer web application here as a free sample.
it is the third chapter in the book, and requires some prior knowledge of what a botnet c&c (command and control) is. it is basic, short, and to my belief covers quite a bit. it had to be short, as i had just 5 days to write it while doing other things, and not planning on any writing, but it is pretty good in my completely unbiased opinion. 😉
you can download it from this link:
for the full book, you would need to spend the cash.
gadi evron,
i really like this video, which you can watch on youtube
[update] apparently the link above has been removed, but exists in 20 other uploads:
mythbusters is a cool british show that tries to scientifically attack myths. they even use guns. :p
[update] apparently it's an american show with different voiceovers all around the world.
to be honest, the way they conduct experiments and reach conclusions is somewhat flawed, to say the least, but they are cool, serious and professional (aside for the occasional safety boo-boo). they invest time and resources in building monstrosities to prove points. 🙂
this time, it was about breaking biometric systems with gummy bears! (see bottom of post for references)
i have seen this over at xavier ashe's the lazy genius a longg time ago, but just made a search to find it again and post it here. in the past, i have studied biometrics extensively and how the systems can be beat. but there is nothing like a short video to make your point for you.
original link is from: http://blogs.technet.com/steriley/archive/2006/09/20/457845.aspx
the original public paper discussing this particular technique of $10 worth materials for breaking these systems using gummy bears is from tsutomu matsumoto, a japanese cryptographer, from around 2002.
i don't think his paper was ever online, but his slides were. they seem gone now at a casual search, but i found some other slides by him:
gadi evron,
i'd expect this from new software companies, maybe. but the big ones seem to keep doing this.
default passwords, especially in widely distributed devices, are bad. no, really. enough with these already.
iphone root password cracked
we managed to obtain and crack the hashs of the user passwords for the iphone os. more information could be found at our development wiki here (link removed).
edit: cause you digg people broke the poor wiki:
the password for root is "alpine"
the "mobile" user accounts password is "dottie"
is it sick to have root pasword to all iphones worldwide? well not really, there is no terminal yet to login :p
gadi evron,
just last week we were throwing jokes on funsec@, of calling botnets terrorism to get some action going. of course, we decided that's an extremely bad idea as people are already starting to discount issues when "terrorism" or "2.0" are attached.
no, i am not going to say it, you are going to put these two together on your own! 🙂
today, fergie (paul ferguson) sent this to funsec:
brian krebs writes in the washington post:
the global jihad landed in linda spence's e-mail inbox during the summer of 2003, in the form of a message urging her to verify her ebay account information. the 35-year-old new jersey resident clicked on the link included in the message, which took her to a counterfeit ebay site where she unwittingly entered in personal financial information.
ultimately, spence's information wound up in the hands of a young man in the united kingdom who investigators said was the brains behind a terrorist cell that sought to facilitate deadly bombing attacks against targets in the united states, europe and the middle east.
investigators say spence's stolen data made its way via the internet black market for stolen identities to 21-year-old biochemistry student tariq al-daour, one of three u.k. residents who pleaded guilty
enjoy. funny, i just had fun
with online forums and terrorism with this a few days ago.
buzzwords for fud are generally a bad idea. botnets are not terrorism. :p but of course, like most malicious activity, they are used.
it's been a long two years, and blogs has under-gone many changes. heck, we now have 15k unique readers a day (not including rss) !!
the main point behind blogs is that although we aim to provide with high-quality content, our content-generation is done mostly by our fellow site visitors. sometimes it's busy, sometime's it's better. it's always done in the same spirit and open to peer criticism. more importantly, it's fun. 🙂
sometimes we speak of news, other times of concepts and then again on low-level assembly. it is what interests our visitors which they (us) write about
one of my personal favorite posts of all time was the one by dmitry, speaking in a very funny tone about our industry. 🙂
how to get a job with pen-testing team.
truly, a must read! the comments on that post are especially good.
before i wish us all a happy birthday and an even more productive future which we can use all we learned so far to get better in… here's what i learned first when i started blogging, and it isn't about security or writing…
i like mailing lists, and i participate on some, depending on time and interest concerns. before i started blogging with securiteam, i used to be more active, and felt these different discussion forums were a home. i had a problem.
i'd start talking about something there and say to myself "hey, why not write about it in blogs?" and i would. or the other way around, i'd blog something and say "hey, wouldn't this interest community home #21?" :p
i went through several phases before settling down on what was best:
1. email in that i wrote about something in my blog.
2. email in just a bit or a summary, as i don't want to write twice, and send a link to my blog.
3. copy the entire blog post, and add a link (which was useful when updates to the text were made).
4. include a link to your blog in your signature.
5. email in a copy, and unless i have a specific reason, don't mention the blog.
i keep seeing other people repeating the above process (more or less), with minor changes as to which step comes first, and what is considered acceptable. some people call them spammers, others just smile or pout. one thing is for sure, it is something many new bloggers who were part of at least one community before their blogging days, go through.
my problem is that i am my own worst critic, and had to feel comfortable with posting. my solution ended up being #5 (althought #4 is also okay, as critics of that one are just nit-picking flamers). more specifically, i decided:
"stop worrying. post what you want where you want, and try to avoid duplication. do not mention the blog. mention url to the blog only when you have a reason to, such as *necessary* updates that will follow."
so, even if i did like the idea of people hearing of my blog (obviously), marketing was far from my main intent. i didn't like the fact it ended up appearing like spam, in their eyes or in mine.
i learned how to participate in these communities while having a topical blog, which for some reason was not as straight-forward for me originally.
i enjoyed these past two years on blogs, and invite you all to start blogging with us.
what was your favorite moment on blogs? 🙂
happy birthday!

Looking for resources to learn the best practices and basics of scaling a backend infrastructure for an application or a web app. I am interested in Amazon Web Services and really enjoy architecting technical solutions. Is there a book / blog / website I can start? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

This question exists because it has historical significance, but it is not considered a good, on-topic question for this site, so please do not use it as evidence that you can ask similar questions here. This question and its answers are frozen and cannot be changed. More info: help center.

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
I have not read these myself but I have heard that the books Web Operations: Keeping the Data On Time and The Art of Capacity Planning: Scaling Web Resources should be pretty good . Chapters include "How cloud services such as EC2 can fit into a capacity strategy" in The Art of Capacity Planning.
Since you are interested in AWS, reading the VP of AWS's blog might be good: http://perspectives.mvdirona.com/

The Stranger Suggests
'Misuse Liable to Prosecution' at On the Boards
The set is like a giant utility closet—too many brooms, a hammock woven out of extension cords, and clumps of clothes hangers drooping like wisteria from the ceiling. Nothing in this piece by New York choreographer John Jasperse could be bought; it's all found or stolen. The gimmick is good and the dance is soft and hypnotic, a corporeal white noise punctuated by occasional hysteria: a little slam dancing, some comical folding and unfolding of blue jeans. With live musical accompaniment by electric harpist Zeena Parkins and some bagpipers. (On the Boards, 100 W Roy St, 217-9888. 8 pm, $24.)BRENDAN KILEY

Gregor von Rezzori was born in Czernowitz, a onetime provincial capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire that was later to be absorbed successively into Romania, the USSR, and the Ukraine--a town that was everywhere and nowhere, with a population of astonishing diversity. Growing up after World War I and the collapse of the empire, Rezzori lived in a twilit world suspended between the formalities of the old nineteenth-century order which had shaped his aristocratic parents and the innovations, uncertainties, and raw terror of the new century. The haunted atmosphere of this dying world is beautifully rendered in the pages of "The Snows of Yesteryear."
The book is a series of portraits--amused, fond, sometimes appalling--of Rezzori's family: his hysterical and histrionic mother, disappointed by marriage, destructively obsessed with her children's health and breeding; his father, a flinty reactionary, whose only real love was hunting; his haughty older sister, fated to die before thirty; his earthy nursemaid, who introduced Rezzori to the power of storytelling and the inevitability of death; and a beloved governess, Bunchy. Telling their stories, Rezzori tells his own, holding his early life to the light like a crystal until it shines for us with a prismatic brilliance.
About the Author
Gregor von Rezzori (1914--1998) studied at the University of Vienna and for a time lived in Bucharest. In Germany, after World War II, he became active as a writer and in radio broadcasting and filmmaking activities. American readers first discovered his writing in English with the appearance of his story "Troth" in "The New Yorker," Von Rezzori's books include "Tales from Maghrebinia," "Oedipus Triumphs at Stalingrad," "The Hussar," "The Death of My Brother Abel," and "Anecdotage," He lived with his wife in a village near Florence, Italy, until his death. His "Memoirs of an Anti-Semite" was reissued by NYRB Classics in 2007.
John Banville was born in Wexford, Ireland, in 1945. He is the author of many novels, including "The Book of Evidence," "The Untouchable," and "Eclipse," Banville's novel "The Sea" was awarded the 2005 Man Booker Prize. On occasion he writes under the pen name Benjamin Black.
John Banville
Praise For…
"One of those rare and lovely books that defy category. Fiction and non-fiction meet in the precision and quality of Rezzori's prose, in his passion for the perfect detail, and in his power to capture the reader's heart."-Alan Furst
"Von Rezzori's best-known novel, Memoirs of an Anti-Semite, and his recent memoir, The Snows of Yesteryear, were works of sly, silky lyricism filled with sharp detail and a deft, ironic moral weight. Above all they offered marvelous character-portraits in prose, with the novel wryly evoking the women who shaped its narrator's sensual and intellectual life and the memoir giving an indelible account of von Rezzori's tragicomically dysfunctional family as it weathered the cataclysms of a war-stricken Europe." –Washington Post
The Snows of Yesteryear "leads into a world now irretrievably lost, its values blown away by World War I and its fortures wrecked by the inflationary '20s…Strong material, then; and Rezorri follows this family back with a fine disdain for sentiment, a transparency of feeling, an acid sense of humor and a vigilant eye for nuances of love and indifference, language, landscape and class behavior. It is not a young man's (or a moralist's) book. But it is intensely moving and contains, in its winding and ironic cadences, not a slack sentence." –Time magazine
"Writing in lyrical, allusive prose–elegantly translated from the German by H. F. Broch de Rothermann–Mr. von Rezzori uses his portraits…to create a book that is, at once, an autobiography and a picture of a vanished age…The Snows of Yesteryear reveals its author's rich pictorial imagination, his seemingly total recall, his gift for revealing character through anecdotes colored by memory…His book remains both an elegiac tribute to a receding past and a testament to the redemptive powers of memory–a family photography album, beautifully translated into words." –Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"The Snows of Yesteryear is a classic which bears comparison in its artistic integrity with Nabakov's Speak, Memory and Sarte's Les Mots." –The Independent (London)
"The Snows of Yesteryear is autobiography as portraiture…Each portrait is a miniature of the Bukovinian past." –The New York Review of Books
"If any individual life could encapsulate the geographic and psychic dislocation that has been the central experience of the 20th century, that life might be Gregor von Rezzori's…Rezzori has explored the consequences of this century's disruptions in a series of remarkable books…The Death of My Brother Abel, Memoirs of an Anti-Semite, and The Snows of Yesteryear." –Newsday
"[Memoirs of an Anti-Semite and The Snows of Yesteryear are] works sly, silky lyricism filled with sharp detail and a deft, ironic moral weight. Above all they offered marvelous character-portraits in prose." –The Washington Post
"The Snows of Yesteryear's five 'portraits' add up to a nonfiction Bildungsroman…an eclectic cultural smorgasbord almost comical in its complications…Shrewdly dovetailing psychological observation and factual background in five marvelous interdependent narratives, Rezzori blends public and personal history with brilliance and aplomb. Praise should go to translator H. F. Broch de Rothermann for rendering Rezzori's German into such seductively lyrical English prose." –The Seattle Times
"The weight of history lies heavily on the people of Central Europe; this powerful memoir shows us how painful that weight can be." –Newsday
"Dazzling prose, humane insights and good humor…[Rezzori] has created, not simply recorded a memoir of growing up in the linguistic and political no-man's-land of interbellum central Europe." –Boston Globe
"The iconoclastic author of Memoirs of an Anti-Semite and The Death of My Brother Abel mulls over his childhood. Like Elias Canetti, a modern Homer of Central European aristocracy, Rezzori frames the past like a classicist, feels it like a tormented youth." –Philadelphia Inquirer
"The Snows of Yesteryear is a classic which bears comparison in its artistic integrity with Nabokov's Speak, Memory and Sartre's Les Mots." –The Independent (London)

This volume teaches calculus in the biology context without compromising the level of regular calculus. The material is organized in the standard way and explains how the different concepts are logically related. Each new concept is typically introduced with a biological example; the concept is then developed without the biological context and then the concept is tied into additional biological examples. This allows readers to first see why a certain concept is important, then lets them focus on how to use the concepts without getting distracted by applications, and then, once readers feel more comfortable with the concepts, it revisits the biological applications to make sure that they can apply the concepts. The book features exceptionally detailed, step-by-step, worked-out examples and a variety of problems, including an unusually large number of word problems. The volume begins with a preview and review and moves into discrete time models, sequences, and difference equations, limits and continuity, differentiation, applications of differentiation, integration techniques and computational methods, differential equations, linear algebra and analytic geometry, multivariable calculus, systems of differential equations and probability and statistics. For faculty and postdocs in biology departments.

A question got asked to me today about how to migrate data from Commerce Server 2002. It was obvious from reading it, that at least one person doesn't know that there is a data migration tool.
It will take data from all versions prior, specifically:
and migrate it to Commerce Server 2009. What's the catch? Some of the old catalog entities that got dropped in lieu of Catalog Sets and Virtual Catalogs in CS2002 (when migrating from CS2000) will be flattened. Other than that, everything will migrate with full integrity - ASSUMING that there were no unsupported changes made to Commerce Server's schemas (e.g. - you did not edit SQL Server directly and went through the provided schema editing tools).
THe best practices are, of course:
But with that - you should be good to go! Hope this helps...

1. Meant to have the same denotation as word, i.e., a term used to indicate agreement or assent or approval. Somewhere between "cool" and "okay". The word is used by people with a rudimentary to thorough knowledge of Latin (in which it means "word"), generally ironically, as it results from the application of an elevated, academic language to a "street" or "ghetto" term. The "v" is usually pronounced as an English "w", as that is how consonantal "v" is pronounced in classical Latin.

I cannot get the like statement to work with space and trailing wildcard. My query goes as follows:
select * from Table where Field like 'Desc_%'
The data is space-delimited such as, Desc Top, Desc Bottom and so on. The query works when I use the pattern 'Desc_%' but not when I use the pattern 'Desc %'. The field is nvarchar(255).
Any ideas?
Turns out the data was tab-delimited and when I copied a value from the 2008 Management Studio it converted the tab to space. Dumb mistake. I did like the [ ] tip so I marked it the answer. Thanks everyone, I'll remember not to trust the copy from the grid results.

6. The Custom Hotel
Los Angeles, U.S.
As you'd expect of a flight-delay hotel in L.A., The Custom Hotel is all about fun and frivolity; from the fire pit to the DJ lounge, guests will be able to forget about their screwed-up travel arrangements by ogling beautiful blondes and quaffing margaritas poolside. The design is suitably flamboyant too, and there are 250 stylish guest rooms (all with soundproof windows, thank God) and a restaurant and pool bar. While it's not attached to LAX -- in fact, it's two miles from the airport -- there is a direct shuttle service to transport guests to and fro with their Louis Vuitton luggage in tow.

Re: Savings accounts are a joke...
ImprovingYouth wrote:
Savings rates are being held at close to nothing due to the monetary policies that the Feds are trying to promote. In order to increase spending and the economy as a whole the Feds are trying to get you and all Americans to use there money and NOT save. There should be an upside to this, as all lending rates should be at historic lows and money should be easily obtainable because banks essentially have an unlimited supply of close to free money. However due to the credit crunch in recent years, banks have clamped down on lending and made it inaccessable to many Americans.
Basically, the rates are all great for borrowing money but will be horrible for lenders (in this case that include you as you are lending the bank your money for close to nothing) for a long long time. Basically until the entire US economy improves drastically.
Yes, just pretend this year is Tuesday, next year is Wednesday and so on. By the time we get to Friday things start looking brighter with a sunny weekend ahead.
So now is the time to be lean and trim those financial calories. When you start your savings, it's what you deposit that matters. It's only later that the interest will stack up against you deposit, and maybe by the weekend too the savings rates will go up.
You stay lean until you can buy a small place. You have been diligent and paid your stuff when due, and so your credit score is high and your mortgage rate will be low, especially as long as the present levels last, which is money down your pocket, aside from the mortgage deductions.
Then put money in your 401K or IRA, which on average generates a high yield. You can't withdraw your retirement money ahead of time without penalty, but when the time comes, you'll be very happy you planned ahead.
The best way to saving is to have income put aside at deposit time. Have the bank transfer a certain percentage to your savings account, so you don't have to do it. Forget about the savings and forget about the savings rates. Get used to living within your checking account. There's a lot to look forward in years to come!

Daddy wouldn't let him take his gap year until he'd done a resit of his history A-level (that C would mean Durham was off-limits), but it was worth the wait: while at a full moon party in Thailand, the TFT had a life-changing epiphany. There's more to life than the fascist ratrace, he decided, as a 66-year-old rat-tailed cockney called Aurastarbeam handed him a pair of bongos. On his return to civilisation, weighed down not only by the total harshness of the modern world but also by an arm full of ragged festival wristbands, the TFT decided to dedicate his life to travelling the nation's parks, serenading sunbathers with his heartfelt ballads about economic meltdown and wars and bad stuff. "Stop the banks, halt the tanks," he trills, strumming his battered acoustic guitar, as a stray frisbee hits him on the head and knocks him into a fountain, extinguishing his giant spliff and ruining his iPhone.

Furnished Room for Sub-Lease at The Pointe at Central for Spring 2013! $495/mo all-inclusive! (self.ucf)
submitted 3 years ago by tehOPEologist
I'm trying to sublease my room at The Pointe at Central to an active student (requirement for living in the complex), right off Alafaya about a mile from campus for the Spring semester until July 31st, 2013. My roommates are all down-to-earth guys who're trying to finish up school and have passed their "partyallthetime" phase. We're in the back of the complex, so we're never bothered by anyone. The rent includes unlimited electric and water! It's a 4/2 apartment with a very spacious living room and spacious rooms themselves. I'm looking to sublease the room starting January 1st, 2013, so January's rent will need to be paid to start the lease. If you have any other questions or inquiries, please let me know!

So, I improved a little the look of these icons. I added the shadows, the light and changed some colors. As to the (previous) user icon I was not sure so I did it again.
btw. Any feedback or/and critique always welcome :)

AbstractNext generation radar systems will be required to perform multiple missions. Tactical ground based systems will be called upon for supporting air defense with target identification and for air traffic control. The same system will be required to perform hostile weapons locating together with cueing of friendly weapons. It's essential that all these missions be accomplished effectively—with a high degree of performance and readiness. Providing the ability for radar system operation in more than a single frequency band enables realizing optimum multi-mission performance. Lower frequencies generally provide superior long range surveillance capabilities while higher frequencies excel for angular accuracy and target discrimination. Sensis Corporation proposes an innovative and practical solution for realizing active phased array systems capable of operating on two distinct frequency bands with uncompromised performance. Our approach is system driven ensuring fulfillment of radar operational requirements while being amenable to performance growth, supportive of high system mobility, readily maintained, and cost effective. In the Phase I program, Sensis made substantial accomplishments in deriving architectures for multi-band active arrays, establishing Transmit/Receive unit requirements and budgets, and developing a dual-band T/R building block concept. For Phase II, Sensis will further advance from the concept stage towards functional demonstration vehicles.

The Reaper of Souls Expansion is coming and a lot of people are coming back to this blog to read my thoughts on it. Despite there being very little information on the expansion released so far, you can find a few speculation tips from this blog post on how to make gold and prepare for the Diablo 3 Expansion. For the moment, a lot of people are coming back to Diablo 3 because of the expansion's announcement, and that means easy sales for those of us who understand the three fastest ways to make gold and money in Diablo 3.
Believe it or not you can make money in Diablo 3 with a level 1 character who doesn't even play the game. You buy (or preferably bid) low and then sell your items at a discount (compared to normal values). The problem with this strategy is that I can't just give you a generic guide to making money/gold and then send you packing. You need experience to back up the knowledge I disseminate to this audience.
So if you did know everything about this game already, you could simply buy a bunch of gold, take the gold to buy items on the gold auction house, then sell the items on the RMAH for more than what you started with.
You can get to the point where this is all you do, but first, you need to learn what stats players want, which items work best for which builds, etc. There are three stages to learning this information, that I cover extensively in the gold guide and accompanying private forum.
1. Farming Normal on MP10
Running around killing monsters at will without a thought for which items are worth picking up to sell and which should be salvaged will not help you very much here. Use my guide, or slowly figure it out on your own, to understand which stats players want at these levels. It's a low supply, super high demand market that anyone can succeed in. You can even flip items at this bracket without actually farming because so many people miss-price them on the auction house.
2. Flip Leveling Legendaries
Whether you craft these or find them through farming in game / auction house, you need to understand why players want certain legendaries over others. Don't forget a few tips for this market:
- Level 48 is the start of -18 reduced level requirement items. These will destroy most legendaries pre-level 58. Some items do not have the level reduced stat and tend to sell very well around level 48.
- Search by time left to see items ending soon.
- Put whatever stats you can search for that players want into the search criteria, but understand that sometimes you will need to browse through pages to find the best stuff because it's not possible to search it. See the legendary blueprint in the gold guide for a run down of every legendary in the game and how to search for the best deals.
- Crafting is a great way to get leveling legendaries. If you can afford it, buy the cain's or borne's set at the very least.
3. End Game Items
You really need to have a grasp on character builds (try Gimmic's guide for tons class specific builds and tips) in order to know which legendaries players desire at max level. Do your homework and read up on strategy guides throughout the internet. The more popular the strategy, the more likely you will be able to sell the items associated with it. Many of the players who reveal their strategies have the items already on their character (if it's the blizzard forums) or specify example item setups in their write ups. Pay close attention to this information and see if you can't make money off your research.
All three of these fastest ways to make money in Diablo 3 require that you understand the fees in this game. Please check out my gold guide for the latest gold to money conversion math that will show you the amount of money you want to sell an item for instead of gold and vice versa. This will help you avoid any embarrassing losses due to not understanding the fees and how they affect your profit calculations. When you start arbitrage from gold to RMAH and back to gold again, you really need to map out your fees!
