Studies show that the monarch butterfly's population has dropped down 90% in the last year. Could this really be the end of the iconic monarch?

Humpy Becomes Youngest British Ladies Champion
By Arvind Aaron
Koneru Humpy achieved a new title
winning the final round of the British Championship against British junior
Broomfield and along with it the honour of being `British Ladies Champion'.
She gets a trophy and pounds 500 for her latest achievement. She missed
the WGM mark by a whisker and finished with 6.5/11, winning five games,
drawing three and losing three. She was accompanied by her father-trainer
Koneru Ashok and sponsored by Bank of Baroda.

The British Championship was won by GM Julian Hodgson once again. He suffered a shocking draw against Indian U-18 Champion Panja Mahesh Chandran but clawed back to win the title at 8.5/11. Half a point behind him was Mark Hebden 8. Sixty-nine players took part. The two Chennai players performed poorly in the middle but finished respectably. Mahesh Chandran scored 6/11 and Aarthie Ramaswamy finished with 5.5/11 which is exactly fifty percent. Humpy was impressive that she drew fourth seed GM John Emms and beat former world U-18 champion Nicholas Pert. Continued exposure should help Humpy bring more laurels. Today she is the fastest rising Indian woman player.

It's quite apparent that most of us have heard about cannabis is beneficial or how harmful it really is. The storylines comes in manners that are both negative and positive. Some are asserting that the plant has been super valuable for them, while some are saying it has done nothing but brought about many side effects. The facts are that there's not going to be an ending on this. That's because the herb has a different effect on everyone. For this reason there's all these reports of positive and negative effects.
ED is a medical condition where men are not able to get or maintain the erection long enough to have pleasurable time with their partner. Men who are in their 40s or over it experience this issue often. But amazing news is that ED is really responsive to treatment. Diseases like diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure etc. leads towards ED.
Another matter is that just like individuals differ in their susceptibility to alcohol, additionally they differ in susceptibility to marijuana. All of us know many people in our circle who get wasted only by two or three beverages, while there are some who appear remain sober even if they imbibe the entire bottle. So the case is same for inhaling, smoking or eating bud. Some get sleepy, some get giddy, and some becomes paranoid and so forth. Next time you ask yourself marijuana effects, this should clear your doubts. It is true that different strains have different effect and then there's also the sensitivity level. But there's also possibility that marijuana forms that are same can have distinct sexual effect on guys that are different.
There's still very small quantity of information collected on male sexual function on the effects of marijuana. While there's a proof of research on marijuana being a sexual inhibitor, odds are that the actual answer maybe slightly more complex than this.

My face got "xiao ren zhi" must remove asap :wong29:
Bishan Salon 1, the one recommended for eyebrow embroidery has it, but i no time to do :embarrassed:
Some old pple's sayings that,
if you have a mole near around mouth or face
do not remove it as it may represent wealth or luck
or it may change ur life ?
hehe..i wonder how true it is...
Mine is cfm 小人 one liao :001_302:

I just removed my mole on my nose coz i see from tv taiwan fortune telling tat if married woman got mole on the nose means her husband will "漏财" coz woman's nose represent husband. My friend working at New York so i did the laser removal free. V fast only take 2mins. My husband removed his fews yrs ago at those pasar malam stalls for $10/mole. But more ma fan
I removed before at Bugis there . Heard from many different fortune tellers that moles under eye means you'll keep cry , meaning miserable life . So I went to remove lo . A bit painful but bearable .
Not to scare anyone, last time i did a mole removal at a Beauty salon, and after 1 week the mole came back!!
Until i see a dermatologist, then he surgically remove for me, no scar! very good. It has been 5 years already. He says doing it a beauty salon is very dangerous, as it might aggravate it and if suai, later become cancerous!! So better do it at the doc!!! As some mole has roots, so you can't remove the top layer only, you need to remove the whole thing! Hope this helps.
my hb did his at GP which specialise in skin...not for cosmetic purposes, but worried e mole might be cancerous lor...doc surgically remove for him, no scar also...
i did my mole removal @a chinese physician shop at chinatown area. They are qualified chinese physicians wz certs & do it wz a kind of chinese herbal cream.
Fel abit 'hot' wen applied onto ur mole, cnt touch water wen gg to shower at hm lo.. so u juz wipes ur face wz soap...it will dried up few days(wks) later(depends size of mole)& will automatically drop off..
Had recommended my mom, sis, dh & his frds there to do it.
Not ex though..depends on size lo..hmm abt $20 & abv bah..
Does the beauty saloon only remove facial moles or body moles also can ?
laser mole removal cost Is Not Impossible Anymore. As with any surgical procedure, there are side effects you must be aware of if you're considering mole removal using lasers. Although the procedure is quite safe and inexpensive, there are always possibilities of negative side effects. For more info visit: Laser Mole Removal Site
I did mine at $5 from those beauty shop at bedok shop house. Not painful at all. But it takes about 3 days to heal becus they appear a cream on my mole den will be come dry need to wait it auto drop out.

Sweat Like The Dew (3:47)9. Love Love Love (3:19)10. The Trouble With Youth (3:35)Since his first release in 2002, Eric Elbogen has dished out a prolific spread of clever, mopey bedroom synth-pop jams and diatribes first under the name Say Hi to Your Mom, then adopting the truncated Say Hi in 2008. Endless Wonder, his eighth LP and fourth for Seattle indie Barsuk, finds Elbogen injecting a bit more swagger into his electro blues with strong, fuzzed-out textures and a ramshackle swing to his voice. Gritty, lovelorn tunes like "Such a Drag" and the darkly melodic "Like Apples Like Pears" provide some grip to counter the set's softer, but no less effective tracks. The album ends nicely on a rhythmic down note with the warm paean "Love, Love, Love" and the mournfully swinging "The Trouble with Youth." With over a decade of releases to his credit, Elbogen continues to carve out his own distinct world that combines a smart wit, a strong will, and some solid pop songwriting.Buy Premium From My Links To Get Resumable Support,Max Speed & Support MeDownload ( Uploadable )http://www.uploadable.ch/file/E4qR8hBZz8pQ/uydjn.Say.Hi..Endless.Wonder.2014.rarDownload ( Uploaded )http://ul.to/eb3v0nl4/uydjn.Say.Hi..Endless.Wonder.2014.rarDownload ( Rapidgator )http://rapidgator.net/file/866c45b89061b9c2c8247977120874ec/uydjn.Say.Hi..Endless.Wonder.2014.rar.htmlDownload ( Oboom )https://www.oboom.com/I4731R9C/uydjn.Say.Hi..Endless.Wonder.2014.rar

TRAINER Mark Kavanagh is in the enviable position of keeping stable stars Atlantic Jewel and Super Cool ticking over in different races as they head to the Cox Plate and Cups.
He has nominated the champion mare, winner of all eight career starts, for the Group 1 Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes, as well as for the Group 2 Stocks Stakes.
Both are over 1600m, with the latter restricted to mares. Victory in the former, a much tougher assignment, would reap Group 1 glory and an extra $48,000 in prizemoney.
Kavanagh also has entered this year's Australian Cup winner Super Cool in the Group 1 and he can take the easier option for Atlantic Jewel and be represented by the gun four year old colt in the main event.
If Super Cool won the Group 1 and Atlantic Jewel the Group 2, the stable would collect $312,000 in prizemoney.
Splitting the pair would enable Kavanagh to give Atlantic Jewel her second run after a 70-week break because of injury against modest rivals - she is rated 19 points above nearest rival Oasis Dream - while counting on Super Cool to enhance his already glowing reputation in the tougher event.
Atlantic Jewel may need to be nursed but Super Cool would thrive on tough racing.
The Flemington maestro is not expected to make a final decision until Atlantic Jewel has a track gallop on Tuesday morning. He is wary of pushing her too hard (against elite company) so early this campaign after such a protracted absence, but wants to keep her ticking over.
She is the raging $3 favourite to win the 2040m Cox Plate, while Super Cool is on the fourth line of TAB betting at $13.
Super Cool ran a slashing third behind his stablemate in the Group 1 Memsie Stakes at Caulfield on August 31.
He is the $9 favourite for the Caulfield Cup (2400m) on October 19, a $13 chance on the fourth line of betting for the Cox Plate and a $26 chance in the Melbourne Cup (3200m) on November 5.
Atlantic Jewel would be a short-priced favourite for the Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes but Kavanagh must decide if another tough run is in her best Cox Plate interests at this stage of her campaign.
Super Cool, a definite starter, will have stiff competition from the Gai Waterhouse-trained Fiorente, who missed the start but ran on resolutely in the Memsie and who is the $14 third favourite for the Melbourne Cup.
Also nominated is last year's Emirates Stakes winner Happy Trails, who is an accomplished weight-for-age performer, and the Peter Moody-trained import Lidari, a last start Caulfield winner.

Installing A Computer System For Unilever Corporation Computer Science Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Unilever is an Anglo-Dutch multinational corporation that owns many of the world's consumer product brands in foods, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products. Unilever N.V. has its head office in Rotterdam, while Unilever PLC has its head office in the Unilever House in the City of London and its registered office in Port Sunlight,
Wirral, Merseyside.
Unilever is a dual-listed company consisting of Unilever NV in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and Unilever PLC in London, United Kingdom. This arrangement is similar to those of Reed Elsevier and Royal Dutch Shell prior to their unified structures. Both Unilever companies have the same directors and effectively operate as a single business. The current non-executive Chairman of Unilever N.V. and PLC is Michael Treschow while Paul Polman is Group Chief Executive.
Unilever's main competitors include Danone, Henkel, Kraft Foods, Nestlé, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Reckitt Benckiser, Sara Lee and S.C. Johnson & Son.
Unilever owns more than 400 brands as a result of acquisitions; however, the company focuses on what are called the "billion-dollar brands", 13 brands which each achieve annual sales in excess of €1 billion. Unilever's top 25 brands account for more than 70% of sales. The brands fall almost entirely into two categories: Food and Beverages, and Home and Personal Care.
Unilever is the world's biggest ice cream manufacturer, with an annual turnover of €5 billion. Except for Popsicle, Klondike, Ocean Spray ice cream, Slim Fast ice cream, Breyers, Starbucks and Ben & Jerry's, all of its ice cream business is done under the "Heartbrand" brand umbrella, so called because of its heart-shaped logo. Unilever currently operates eleven ice cream factories in Europe; the biggest include factories at Heppenheim in Germany, Caivano in Italy, St. Dizier in France, Gloucester in the United Kingdom and Santa Iria da Azóia in Portugal.
In 2005, Glidat Strauss received special permission from Unilever to export their brand of ice cream to the United States because of the strict kosher certification the products in Israel have. Under terms of the agreement, Strauss ice cream and krembo may be sold only in kosher supermarkets and import shops. It is distributed in North America by Dairy Delight, a subsidiary of Norman's Dairy.
Prior to the heart logo, each country could choose its own logo, although the most common one consisted of a blue circle with the local brand's name over a background of red and white stripes; second most common old logo, used by Wall's in the UK and other countries, was a yellow logo with Wall's in blue text.
Unilever generally manufactures the same ice-cream with the same names, with rare occasions of regional availability, under different brands. Some of these ice-creams include Carte D'Or, Cornetto, Magnum, Solero and Viennetta.
To make their transactions easier and better.
To secure their data and files in proper storage.
It has a wide capacity of memory and speeds up the computer programs due its high processor.
To help them to introduce their products through internet so that their customers will be informed immediately.
I choose Windows 2000 Datacenter Server to meet the exact standards of the company to avoid the problems on the application.
1. Start the computer from the CD.
2. You can press F6 if you need to install additional SCSI adapters or other mass-storage devices.
3. Setup will load all the needed files and drivers.
4. Select To Setup W2K Now. If you want, and if you have a previous installation of the OS, you can try to fix it by pressing R. If not, just press ENTER.
5. Press C to continue.
6. Read and accept the licensing agreement and press F8.
7. Select or create the partition on which you will install Windows 2000. Depending upon your existing disk configuration choose one of the following:
• If the hard disk is not yet partitioned, you can create and size the partition on which you will install Windows 2000. Press C.
• If the hard disk is new and you want to create a partition that will span the entire hard disk's size - press Enter.
Other options:
• If the hard disk is already partitioned, but has enough unpartitioned disk space, you can create an additional partition in the unpartitioned space.
• If the hard disk already has a partition that is large enough, you can install Windows 2000 on that partition. If the partition has an existing operating system, you will overwrite that operating system if you accept the default installation path. However, files other than the operating system files, such as program files and data files, will not be overwritten.
• If the hard disk has an existing partition, you can delete it to create more unpartitioned space for the new partition. Deleting an existing partition erases all data on that partition.
If you select a new partition during Setup, create and size only the partition on which you will install Windows 2000. After installation, use Disk Management to partition the remaining space on the hard disk.
8. Select a file system for the installation partition. After you create the partition on which you will install W2K, you can use Setup to select the file system with which to format the partition. W2K supports the NTFS file system in addition to the file allocation table (FAT) and FAT32 file systems. Windows Server 2003, Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000, and Windows NT are the only Microsoft operating systems that you can use to gain access to data on a local hard disk that is formatted with NTFS. If you plan to gain access to files that are on a local W2K partition with the Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 98 operating systems, you should format the partition with a FAT or FAT32 file system. We will use NTFS.
Setup will then begin copying necessary files from the installation point (CD, local I386 or network share).
10. Note: If you began the installation process from an MS-DOS floppy, make sure you have and run SMARTDRV from the floppy, otherwise the copying process will probably last more than an hour, perhaps even more. With SMARTDRV (or if setup was run by booting from CD) the copying will probably last a few minutes, no more than 5 max.
11. The computer will restart in graphical mode, and the installation will continue.
The GUI-based portion of the Setup program
The setup process reboots and loads a GUI mode phase.
It will then begin to load device drivers based upon what it finds on your computer. You don't need to do anything at this stage.
If your computer stops responding during this phase (the progress bar is stuck almost half-way, and there is no disk activity) - shut down your computer and begin removing hardware such as PCI and ISA cards. If it works for you then later try to figure out how to make that specific piece of hardware work (it's probably not in the HCL).
Click Customize to change regional settings, if necessary.
• Current System Locale - Affects how programs display dates, times, currency, and numbers. Choose the locale that matches your location, for example, French (Canada).
• Current Keyboard Layout - Accommodates the special characters and symbols used in different languages. Your keyboard layout determines which characters appear when you press keys on the keyboard.
If you don't need to make any changes just press Next.
If you do need to make changes press Customize and add your System Locale etc.
2. Type your name and organization.
3. Type the product key.
If you'd like to skip this step in the future, please read Install Windows 2000 Without Supplying the CD Key.
4. Enter the appropriate license type and number of purchased licenses.
Type the computer name and a password for the local Administrator account. The local Administrator account resides in the SAM of the computer, not in Active Directory. If you will be installing in a domain, you need either a pre-assigned computer name for which a domain account has been created, or the right to create a computer account within the domain.
Choose which components to install or remove from the system.
7. Select the date, time, and time zone settings.
Setup will now install the networking components.
After a few seconds you will receive the Networking Settings window. BTW, if you have a NIC that is not in the HCL (see the What's the HCL? page) and W2K cannot detect it, or if you don't have a NIC at all, setup will skip this step and you will immediately go to the final phase of the setup process.
Press Next to accept the Typical settings option if you have one of the following situations:
• You have a functional DHCP on your network.
• You have a computer running Internet Connection Sharing (ICS).
• You're in a workgroup environment and do not plan to have any other servers or Active Directory at all, and all other workgroup members are configured in the same manner.
Otherwise select Custom Settings and press Next to customize your network settings.
Highlight the TCP/IP selection and press Properties.
In the General tab enter the required information. You must specify the IP address of the computer, and if you don't know what the Subnet Mask entry should be - you can simply place your mouse pointer over the empty area in the Subnet Mask box and click it. The OS will automatically select the value it thinks is good for the IP address you provided.
Lamer note: In the above screenshot I've configured the computer with a valid IP address for MY network, along with the Default Gateway and the address of MY DNS server. Your settings may differ.
If you don't know what these values mean, or if you don't know what to write in them, press cancel and select the Typical Settings option. You can easily change these values later.
10. In the Workgroup or Domain window enter the name of your workgroup or domain.
• A workgroup is a small group of computers on a network that enables users to work together and does not support centralized administration.
• A domain is a logical grouping of computers on a network that has a central security database for storing security information. Centralized security and administration are important for computers in a domain because they enable an administrator to easily manage computers that are geographically distant from each other. A domain is administered as a unit with common rules and procedures. Each domain has a unique name, and each computer within a domain has a unique name.
If you're a stand-alone computer, or if you don't know what to enter, or if you don't have the sufficient rights to join a domain - leave the default entry selected and press Next.
If you want to join a domain (NT 4.0 domain of W2K/2003 Active Directory domain) enter the domain's name in the "Yes, make this computer a member of the following domain" box.
To successfully join a domain you need the following:
• The person performing the installation must have a user account in Active Directory. This account does not need to be the domain Administrator account.
• The computer must have an existing computer account in the Active Directory database of the domain that the computer is joining, and the computer must be named exactly as its domain account is named.
• The person performing the installation must have appropriate permission to create a domain account for the computer during installation.
Also, you need to have connectivity to the domain's domain controllers (only to the PDC if on an NT 4.0 domain) and a fully functional DNS server (only in AD domains). Read the Joining a Domain in Windows XP Pro and Requirements when Joining a Domain pages for more on this issue.
Enter the Active Directory domain name (in the form of xxx.yyy, for example: DPETRI.NET) or the NetBIOS name of the NT 4.0 domain (in the form of xxx, for example: DPETRI). Press Next.
Note: Providing a wrong username or password will cause this phase to fail.
11. Next the setup process will finish copying files and configuring the setup. You do not need to do anything.
After the copying and configuring phase is finished, if Windows Server 2003 finds that you have a badly configured screen resolution it will advise you to change it and ask you if you see the new settings right.
Setup finishes and displays the finish window. Unfortunately, you must press Finish in order to reboot...
14. Windows 2000 reboots and you should get the CTRL-ALT-DEL window.
15. Congratulation! You have successfully installed Windows 2000 Datacenter Server.
Microsoft Management Console (MMC)
A framework for hosting administrative tools, called consoles. A console may contain tools, folders or other containers, World Wide Web pages, and other administrative items. These items are displayed in the left pane of the console, called a console tree. A console has one or more windows that can provide views of the console tree.
The main MMC window provides commands and tools for authoring consoles. The authoring features of MMC and the console tree itself may be hidden when a console is in User Mode.
To open MMC, click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type mmc.
For information about using MMC, on the Action menu, click Help.
For more information, click Related Topics.
MMC overview
You can use Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to create, save, and open administrative tools (called MMC consoles) that manage the hardware, software, and network components of your Windows system. MMC can be run on the various Windows 9x and Windows NT operating systems.
MMC does not perform administrative functions, but hosts tools that do. The primary type of tool you can add to a console is called a snap-in. Other items that you can add include ActiveX controls, links to Web pages, folders, task pad views, and tasks.
There are two general ways that you can use MMC: in user mode, working with existing MMC consoles to administer a system, or in author mode, creating new consoles or modifying existing MMC consoles. For more information about the differences between user and author mode, see Console access options.
Opens Microsoft Management Console (MMC). Using the mmc command-line options, you can open a specific MMC console, open MMC in author mode, or specify that the 32-bit or 64-bit version of MMC is opened.

Using the Windows 2000 Task Scheduler
Task Scheduler is a component of Microsoft Windows that provides the ability to schedule the launch of programs or scripts at pre-defined times or after specified time intervals. It was first introduced in the Windows 95 Plus! pack as System Agent but was renamed to Task Scheduler in Windows 98. The Windows Event Log service must be running before the Task Scheduler starts up.
Using Task Scheduler, you can schedule any script, program, or document to run at a time that's most convenient for you. Task Scheduler starts each time you start Windows 2000 and runs in the background.
Running Task Scheduler
Open Control Panel, and double click Task Scheduler.
Double click the Add Scheduled Task icon.
Click Next button.
Select a program you want Windows to run.
Type a name for this task, then select a time when will it perform and click next to continue.
Enter a username and password for the task to use if it needs to log on to the server. Click Next.
You can set additional options by selecting Open Advanced Properties For This Task When I Click Finish.
If you do select this check box, when you click Next, the Advanced properties page appears. The Settings tab, shown in Figure E, allows you to configure the task even further. You can choose to terminate the task if it takes longer than a specific time to run, to start the task only if the computer has been idle for a specific amount of time, to stop the task if the computer ceases to be idle, to not start the task if the computer is on battery power, or to stop the task if battery mode begins. You can also choose to wake your computer to run a task if the computer starts running on battery power.
The Advanced properties page allows you to set additional options for the task.
Once you have configured and scheduled a task, it will appear in the Scheduled Tasks list.
Control Panel
Control Panel is full of specialized tools that are used to change the way Windows looks and behaves.
The Control Panel is a part of the Microsoft Windows graphical user interface which allows users to view and manipulate basic system settings and controls via applets, such as adding hardware, adding and removing software, controlling user accounts, and changing accessibility options. Additional applets can be provided by third party software.
To open Control Panel, click Start and then click Control Panel. If your computer is set up in Classic view using the more familiar Start menu, click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
To see all Control Panel icons in Classic View
In the upper left of the Control Panel window, click Switch to Classic View. To change back, click Switch to Category View.
If you choose a view, and then close the Control Panel, next time you open Control Panel it maintains the last view that you selected.
To access all Control Panel items from the Start Menu
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Appearance and Themes, and then click Taskbar and Start Menu
2. Click the Start Menu tab, select Start menu, and then click Customize.
3. Click the Advanced tab.

FAT32 and NTFS:
FAT32 and NTFS are file systems that may be used on a Microsoft Windows hard disk partition. NTFS provides a number of improvements over FAT32, including:
Second copy of boot sector for improved reliability
File permissions
Improved recoverability
Improved performance on large volumes
Improved efficiency in disk space utilization
Improved fault tolerance
Converting FAT Disk to NTFS in Windows 2000
Back up data in the partition or drive that you want to convert, to another drive or partition or another computer system or PC or any other storage media.
In Windows XP:
Click <Start> -> <Run>
Enter "cmd" into the text field labeled "Open".
Click <OK> button
If you want to convert drive D (D:), enter the command "vol d:" in the command window, to find the volume label for the D: partition
Then enter the command "convert d: /fs:ntfs" to convert the D: partition from FAT32 to NTFS
When prompted, enter the volume label for the partition
Basic Disk Storage
Basic storage uses normal partition tables supported by MS-DOS, Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), Microsoft Windows NT, Microsoft Windows 2000, and Windows XP. A disk initialized for basic storage is called a basicdisk. A basic disk contains basic volumes, such as primary partitions, extended partitions, and logical drives.
Additionally, basic volumes include multidisk volumes that are created by using Windows NT 4.0 or earlier, such as volume sets, stripe sets, mirror sets, and stripe sets with parity. Windows XP does not support these multidisk basic volumes. Any volume sets, stripe sets, mirror sets, or stripe sets with parity must be backed up and deleted or converted to dynamic disks before you install Windows XP Professional.
Dynamic Disk Storage
Dynamic storage is supported in Windows 2000 and Windows XP Professional. A disk initialized for dynamic storage is called a dynamic disk. A dynamic disk contains dynamic volumes, such as simple volumes, spanned volumes, striped volumes, mirrored volumes, and RAID-5 volumes.
Primary Partition - A partition that is used to start an operating system, although you can use primary partitions that don't contain the operating system. Look at the color coded key at the bottom of Fig. 01 and you'll see that Primary partitions are denoted by the dark blue color.
There can be up to a maximum of four primary partitions on a single basic disk.
The Primary partitions do not have to come before Extended partitions as shown on Disk 0.
A drive is not required to have any Primary partitions as shown by Disk 1
CD-ROM 1, while it does contain a blank CD, is not shown as containing a partition because there is no data contained on the CD.
User accounts are used to authenticate, authorize or deny access to resources for, and audit the activity of individual users on your network. A group account is a collection of user accounts that you can use to assign a set of permissions and rights to multiple users simultaneously. A group can also contain contacts, computers, and other groups. You can create user accounts and group accounts in Active Directory to manage domain users. You can also create user accounts and group accounts on a local computer to manage users specific to that computer.
Some of the most common tasks are creating user accounts in Active Directory, creating group accounts in Active Directory, creating user accounts on a local computer, and creating groups on a local computer. You can also use the command line to create user and group accounts in Managing Active Directory from the command line or on a Managing local groups from the command line.
To create a user account in Active Directory
Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
In the console tree, right-click the folder in which you want to add a user account.
Active Directory Users and Computers/domain node/folder
Point to New, and then click User.
In First name, type the user's first name.
In Initials, type the user's initials.
In Last name, type the user's last name.
Modify Full name to add initials or reverse order of first and last names.
In User logon name, type the user logon name, click the UPN suffix in the drop-down list, and then click Next.
If the user will use a different name to log on to computers running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT, then you can change the user logon name as it appears in User logon name (pre-Windows 2000) to the different name.
In Password and Confirm password, type the user's password, and then select the appropriate password options.
To create a group account in Active Directory
Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
In the console tree, right-click the folder in which you want to add a new group.
Active Directory Users and Computers/domain node/folder
Point to New, and then click Group.
Type the name of the new group.
By default, the name you type is also entered as the pre-Windows 2000 name of the new group.
In Group scope, click one of the options.
In Group type, click one of the options.
To create a user account on a local computer
Open Computer Management.
In the console tree, click Users.
Computer Management/System Tools/Local Users and Groups/Users
On the Action menu, click New User.
Type the appropriate information in the dialog box.
Select or clear the check boxes for:

In the New Group dialog box, click Create, and then click Close.
Group policies are used by administrators to configure and control user environment settings. Group Policy Objects (GPOs) are used to configure group policies which are applied to sites, domains, and organizational units (OUs). Group policy may be blocked or set so it cannot be overridden. The default is for sub objects to inherit the policy of their parents. There is a maximum of 1000 applicable group policies.
Group policies are linked to domains, organizational units, or sites in Active Directory. A policy must be linked to a container object in Active Directory to be effective. They are stored in any domain for storage but can be linked to other domains to make them effective there also. The policy must be linked to the container (site, domain, or OU) that it is stored in to be effective in that container. One policy object can be linked to several containers. Several policy objects can be linked to one container.
Group Policy Settings
Group policy settings only work for Windows 2000 computers. Settings that do the following may be applied with group policy:
Manage user environments - Wallpaper and other settings.
Manage scripts - Logon/logoff and startup/shutdown scripts.
Manage security - Event log settings, account policies, and more.
Manage software deployment - Applications may be automatically installed when the client computer starts.
Redirect folders - Folders on a local computer may be redirected to a network share.
To edit the standard security policy of a Windows computer you can use the Local Security Settings tool or the Group Policy Editor tool. The Local Security Settings tool will show you only items related to the security of that computer while the Group Policy Editor tool will show you additional items you can configure such as user and software settings.
To open the Local Security Policy click on Start, Programs and then Administrative Tools. Then you will have a Local Security Policy icon within the Administrative Tools group. If you don't have the Administrative Tools groups showing then right click your taskbar and choose Properties. From there click on the Start Menu tab and then the Customize button. If you use the Classic start menu check the box that says Display Administrative Tools. If you use the regular start menu then click on the Advanced tab scroll down to System Administrative Tools and check Display on the All Programs menu and the Start menu. Now you will have an Administrative Tools option under your Programs menu. Now you can click on Local Security Policy.
You will see several sections related to different areas of the security policy.
Account Policies is where you can set password policies such as the minimum password length and how long before passwords expire. You can also setup account lockout policies which can lock out a user if they enter the wrong password too many times.
Local Policies is where you setup things such as auditing for logins, file access, policy changes and other type of events that can be logged. There is also a section for user rights assignments which allows you to fine tune what administrative tasks your users can perform. In the Security Options section you can grant or deny various rights such as the ability to rename the administrator account and restricting access to devices such as the CDROM.
Public Key Policies is used to specify how to manage certificates and certificate life cycles. This security setting specifies whether certificates are automatically enrolled, renewed when they are expired, and removed when they are revoked.
Software Restriction Policy is used as a way to identify software and control its ability to run on local computers. The two security levels are Disallowed and Unrestricted.
IP Security Polices (IPSEC) is a framework for a set of protocols for security at the network layer of network communication. It is used to support secure exchange of packets at the IP layer and is widely used in Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). Windows has 3 built in IPSEC polices. Client, Secure Server and Server. Client (Respond Only) is used to negotiate with servers that request security but its not necessary to use security if none is present. Secure Server (Require Security) does not allow unsecured communication with untrusted clients. Server (Request Security) always requests security but allows unsecured communication with clients that do not respond to request.
Access control is a system which enables an authority to control access to areas and resources in a given physical facility or computer-based information system. An access control system, within the field of physical security, is generally seen as the second layer in the security of a physical structure.
Access control is, in reality, an everyday phenomenon. A lock on a car door is essentially a form of access control. A PIN on an ATMsystem at a bank is another means of access control. Bouncers standing in front of a night club is perhaps a more primitive mode of access control (given the evident lack of information technology involved). The possession of access control is of prime importance when persons seek to secure important, confidential, or sensitive information and equipment.
An access token is an object encapsulating the security descriptor of a process. Attached to a process, a security descriptor identifies the owner of the object (in this case, the process) and ACLs that specifies accessing rights allowed or denied to the owner of the object. While a token is used to represent only the security information, it is technically free-form and can enclose any data. The access token is used by Windows when the process or thread tries to interact with objects whose security descriptors enforce access control (securable objects). An access token is represented by the system object of type Token. Because a token is a regular system object, access to a token itself can be controlled by attaching a security descriptor, but it is generally never done in practice.
The Access token is generated by the logon service when a user logs on to the system and the credentials provided by the user are authenticated against the authentication database, by specifying the rights the user has in the security descriptor enclosed by the token. The token is attached to every process created by the user session (processes whose owner is the user). Whenever such a process accesses any resource which has access control enabled, Windows looks up in the security descriptor in the access token whether the user owning the process is eligible to access the data, and if so, what operations (read, write/modify etc.) the user is allowed to do. If the accessing operation is allowed in the context of the user, Windows allows the process to continue with the operation, else it is denied access.
You can create a funny message or legal warnings for others just before logon to your computer. This is very useful if you want to give a message to new user about the use of computer. Edit the value of registry keys to create a banner message.
Click Start button then type regedit in Run option then press Enter for next.
Here locate the location to:
HKeyLocalMachine \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Win Logon
Here in right side panel, right click to create a new string value LegalNoticeCaption and give it a value you want to see in the menu bar
Now again right click to create a new string value called LegalNoticeText and change the value you want to see in the dialog box
Now close the registry editor and restart your computer after any changes to go into effect.
Network Protocols
A network protocol defines rules and conventions for communication between network devices. Protocols for computer networking all generally use packet switching techniques to send and receive messages in the form of packets.
Network protocols include mechanisms for devices to identify and make connections with each other, as well as formatting rules that specify how data is packaged into messages sent and received. Some protocols also support message acknowledgement and data compression designed for reliable and/or high-performance network communication. Hundreds of different computer network protocols have been developed each designed for specific purposes and environments.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
The Internet Protocol Suite is the set of communications protocols used for the Internet and other similar networks. It is commonly also known as TCP/IP, named from two of the most important protocols in it: the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), which were the first two networking protocols defined in this standard. Modern IP networking represents a synthesis of several developments that began to evolve in the 1960s and 1970s, namely the Internet and local area networks, which emerged during the 1980s, together with the advent of the World Wide Web in the early 1990s.
The Internet Protocol Suite, like many protocol suites, is constructed as a set of layers. Each layer solves a set of problems involving the transmission of data. In particular, the layers define the operational scope of the protocols within.
Often a component of a layer provides a well-defined services to the upper layer protocols and may be using services from the lower layers. Upper layers are logically closer to the user and deal with more abstract data, relying on lower layer protocols to translate data into forms that can eventually be physically transmitted.
The TCP/IP model consists of four layers (RFC 1122). From lowest to highest, these are the Link Layer, the Internet Layer, the Transport Layer, and the Application Layer.

Remote Access Control
Remote Access Services (RAS) refers to any combination of hardware and software to enable the remote access tools or information that typically reside on a network of IT devices. A RAS server is a specialized computer which aggregates multiple communication channels together. Because these channels are bidirectional, two models emerge: Multiple entities connecting to a single resource, and a single entity connecting to multiple resources. Both of these models are widely used. Both physical and virtual resources can be provided through a RAS server: centralized computing can provide multiple users access to a remote virtual operating system. Access Providers often use RAS servers to terminate physical connections to their customers, for example customers who get Internet through some form of modem.
Use Remote Access Service (RAS) to create client applications. These applications display RAS common dialog boxes, manage remote access connections and devices, and manipulate phone-book entries. RAS also provides the next generation of server functionality for the Remote Access Service (RAS) for Windows. The RRAS server functionality follows and builds upon the Remote Access Service (RAS).
Where Applicable
The Remote Access Service is applicable in any computing environment that uses a Wide Area Network (WAN) link or a Virtual Private Network (VPN). RAS makes it possible to connect a remote client computer to a network server over a WAN link or a VPN. The remote computer then functions on the server's LAN as though the remote computer was connected to the LAN directly. The RAS API enables programmers to access the features of RAS programmatically.
Create a Local Printer
To make a local printer available in a Remote Desktop session:

2. Click Options in the Remote Desktop Connection dialog box.
3. Click the Local Resources tab.
4. Click Printers in the Local Devices box.
5. Click Connect.
After you establish the remote connection and log on to the remote computer, the local printer that is connected to the client becomes the default printer for any programs that are running on the remote desktop. If the client has more than one printer attached to it, the default printer for the computer becomes the default printer on the remote desktop; however, all local printers are available.
Note that when you click Connect, the settings that you specify in the Remote Desktop Connection dialog box are used as the default settings for all new connections. On the General tab in the Remote Desktop Connection dialog box, you can save a collection of settings to a Remote Desktop file. When you do this, you can create different groups of settings for connections to different remote desktops.

Jockeys Luis Saez and Jose Lezcano were both recovering Sunday from a
spill that occurred during the running of the fifth race Saturday at
Gulfstream Park.
Saez, the third leading rider at Gulfstream with 68 victories, was
recovering at Memorial Regional Hospital with a "very small hairline
fracture of the hip, pelvis area," according to agent Richard DePass.
Saez was expected to be released from the hospital Sunday or Monday.
"He's going to be out between three-and-five weeks, according to the
doctors," DePass said. "They think because of his age, and the fact
he's an athlete, he will heal a lot quicker. Considering what happened,
he's doing very well."
Lezcano, tied for fourth in the jockey standings with 53 wins, was
released from the hospital Saturday evening. Lezcano suffered a sprained
ankle and was off his mounts Sunday at Gulfstream. Jockey Francisco
Torres who was also involved in the spill walked away from the incident.

When it comes to the new craze of podcasts, parenting is following along in the footsteps of every other company and sites that which to give free advice, in the hopes that the next generation of young adults will be healthier and all around better citizens. Of course, as with all other websites found on the internet, a parent has to be careful when choosing which podcasts to download and from which website.
My first choice for parenting podcasts is the various different ones that can be found on the parents journal online (http://www.parentsjournal.com/radioshow). The parents journal is a reputable magazine known worldwide, so it is safe to say that the podcasts that they offer will be accurate and informative information. On the page listed numerous choices can be made upon what to watch, on which topics interest you, and they offer one hour podcasts. This makes it easier for the average person to take time out of their day, while still allowing it to be long enough to actually contain extensive amounts of useful parenting information.
My second choice for parenting podcasts also comes from a reputable parenting magazine that most of us have heard of. Parents magazine offers free podcasts on varying different subjects, from people that are experts within their specific fields. (http://www.parents.com/fun/ entertainment/gadgets/parents-magazine-free-podcast/)There are not as many choices on this site as there are on the one listed above, but any type of information that can be listened to that comes from a reputable company is worth listening to and learning from.
Parenting is a serious business to the majority of people that have children, and when it comes to listening to podcasts it is no different than choosing a book or magazine. The information has to come from a reputable source that is a leader within their field. People that give the advice have to be people that actually now what they are talking about, and can back up their information if needed to. Numerous podcasts can be found by searching the internet for them, but the two that I found to be most reliable, and informative where from the two sites that I gave above.

Middle School Mentoring
Springfield's middle school mentoring program began in 2012. Hamlin joined Oregon's ASPIRE middle school network last year and now adds ASPIRE resources to those available for mentors.
Here's how it works:
About ASPIRE:
ASPIRE is a program of OSAC (Oregon Student Access and Completion). ASPIRE is a mentoring program that matches trained and supportive adult volunteer mentors with middle and high school students to develop a plan to help them meet their education goals beyond high school. In addition to the data-driven approach taken through the Middle College program, ASPIRE offers an array of resources for mentors to use in working with students.

Two Hyundai Models Top Federal Crash Tests
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awarded five star ratings for front- and side-impact protection to the sedan and Tucson SUV, minivan, Mercedes-Benz ML Class SUV and SUV.
The two-door coupe had the top score in rollover protection, with the government estimating a nine-percent chance of vehicle rollover during a crash.
In addition to the vehicles that earned five stars on both tests, other top-performing vehicles included the 2006 Volkswagen Passat, , Dodge Dakota, Nissan Armada and Ford Freestar.
NHTSA subjects the cars to crash tests and analyzes the results, basing its ratings on the outcome. For frontal tests, five stars means there is a 10 percent or less chance of serious injury and four stars estimates an 11 percent to 20 percent chance of serious injury. NHTSA conducts the front-impact test at 35 mph.

Business Centre
The latest business news, reviews, features and whitepapers
Panasonic's SC-ZT2 is an interesting home theatre system. It's a stereo setup that mimics surround sound, and its thin speakers put out a surprising amount of audio. It is painfully expensive though, so it appeals more on style than value for money.
The Panasonic SC-ZT2 is a home theatre system with two floor-standing stereo speakers and a slimline A/V receiver. It's an extremely compact and convenient system that suits space- and style-conscious buyers, but we're not sold on its surround sound abilities or the high price tag.
A lot of thought has clearly gone into the design of the Panasonic SC-ZT2's floor-standing speakers, and the audio-visual receiver has a swathe of inputs. Three HDMI inputs and one video passthrough output makes the Panasonic SC-ZT2 suitable for connecting multiple digital A/V devices like Blu-ray players or media centre PCs simultaneously. It also supports Full HD 3D video passthrough, so you can connect your 3D Blu-ray player and 3D television without problems.
The design of the SC-ZT2's speakers is interesting. The majority of each cylindrical floor-standing speaker is around an inch in diameter, with four of Panasonic's 'slim and flat' speaker drivers arranged inside. The base of each speaker is significantly larger and heavier because it houses a 5in woofer driver to provide some low-end reinforcement. The speakers are easy to move around, but the large base does prevent them sitting flush against a low entertainment unit or bench.
The Panasonic SC-ZT2's speakers connect to the receiver wirelessly, with uncompressed stereo audio over the 2.4GHz radio band. This makes placement of the speakers very simple: you don't need to run cables. However, the downside is that you'll require a power point for each speaker as well as the receiver.
Each speaker is rated at 80 Watts RMS, giving the stereo system a total of — yep, you guessed it — 160W. The Panasonic SC-ZT2 has enough power to perform capably at low and moderate volume levels with good sound quality. If you're not happy with the audio from the SC-ZT2, several different equaliser settings make it easy to dial in more bass or treble or mid-range without introducing distortion.
Once set up, sound quality from the Panasonic SC-ZT2 is impressive given the speakers' compact size. High notes are clear and dialogue is crisply represented at low to moderate volume levels, with good mid-range reinforcement from the woofers. At higher volumes the system does get slightly harsh in treble frequencies, while low-end tapers off at maximum volume. The lack of a dedicated subwoofer means you won't get room-shaking bass response, but for moderate volume listening levels (our preferred movie volume) the Panasonic SC-ZT2 does well for a compact system.
One area the system falters is its surround-sound reproduction. The stereo soundstage of the Panasonic SC-ZT2's speakers is good, with music having noticeable separation between channels, but we struggled with positional 5.1 audio from a Blu-ray disc. Try as it might, the SC-ZT2 can't simulate the rear channels of a true 5.1-channel surround sound audio system.
If you're looking for a stylish and convenient speaker system that'll work perfectly with a 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray disc player, Panasonic's SC-ZT2 is worth considering. Its style and wireless speakers do come at a cost, though — weigh this up against competitors' offerings to see what suits your budget best.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.

Mary Horsley given forty years for torturing toddler
Big photos below.
This week, Fourth Judicial District Judge David Prince had the option of giving Mary Horsley up to forty years in prison -- and that's precisely what he did. But he reportedly felt the options available to him under the law "pale in comparison to any justice that should be doled out." His passions were inflamed by the details of the case against Horsley, who was convicted of torturing a toddler.
In April 2011, CBS4 noted that Horsley, then fifty, and nineteen-year-old Samantha Salaz, her niece, had been arrested in Colorado Springs due to injuries sustained by Salaz's 21-month-old daughter, subsequently identified as Alexis Salaz.
Cops had been called to Horsley's home, where both Samantha and Alexis were living at the time along with two other children who were promptly moved into foster care. The original claim was that the little girl had nearly drowned in a toilet and wasn't breathing. But Samantha told later police Horsley had bound Alexis with tape and was spraying her with water as punishment for the cardinal sin of spilling a drink. And Samantha didn't intervene.
At trial, prosecutors cited by the Colorado Springs Gazette presented evidence that this incident wasn't isolated. In fact, binding Alexis with tape and showering her with cold water appears to have been a standard punishment, along with beating the child with a belt or a spatula and dunking her into a tub of cold water -- the child-abuse equivalent of water boarding.
Samantha Salaz.
Samantha took a plea deal for allowing such horrific incidents to take place. Despite testifying against her aunt, she's been sentenced to spend 24 years behind bars.

Meanwhile, Horsley earned forty years for her behavior, plus two years in El Paso County jail and five years of probation on misdemeanor child abuse convictions. Judge Prince wants the various sentences to run consecutively rather than concurrently -- an indication that if he'd had the ability to give her more time in stir, he would have.
As for Alexis, she's been adopted by Joseph Saunders, her biological father, who didn't know anything about her until Horsley and Salaz were busted. But even though more than a year has passed since she was extracted from her awful circumstances, she's hardly back to normal. Elizabeth Saunders, Joseph's wife, said that she "can't walk, talk, eat, sleep or interact with other kids."
That's Horsley's legacy -- and it's a terrible one. Look below to see a larger version of Horsley's mug shot, as well as a CBS4 report broadcast shortly after the original arrests.
