Injuns Joke
A woman from New York was driving through a
remote part of Arizona when her car broke down.
An American Indian on horseback came along and offered
her a ride to a nearby town.
She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off.
The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the
Indian would let out a Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a' so loud that it
echoed from the surrounding hills and canyon walls.
When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service
station, yelled one final 'Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!' and rode off.
"What did you do to get that Indian so excited ?" asked the
service-station attendant.
"Nothing," the woman answered "I merely sat behind him
on the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto
the saddle horn so I wouldn't fall off."
"Lady," the attendant said, "Indians don't use saddles
Pope Joke

Pope Joke
The Pope was visiting an American. He was trying to get across town without attracting too much attention, so instead of the Popemobile, he was driving in a heavily armored SUV with very tinted windows.
So the chauffeur is driving the Pope around, and the Pope gets to wondering. "Man," he thinks, "I haven't driven in ages, not since I was a bishop." He promptly orders the chauffeur to pull over and get in the back seat. The Pope gets in front, slams his foot down on the gas, and barrels down Main Street.
The Pope is a terrible driver, and extremely out of practice. He crashes into street lights, fire hydrants, small children, everything. Eventually a police car, comes, sirens blaring, and the Pope pulls over.
The cop gets out of his car and taps on the window, and the Pope rolls the window down. The cop and the Pope stare at each other for a while, and then the cop nods and walks back to his squad car. The Pope drives off.
A nearby witness, who has seen the whole thing, runs over to the cop.
"Officer!" he asks, "Why didn't you arrest that man, or at least give him a ticket?"
The cop shakes his head and says: "He's too important to arrest."
The man says: "Who could be so important that they could get away with that?"
The cop replies: "I don't know, but he's got the Pope as his driver."

Dont mess WIth My Aunt Joke
A teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: Get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories. Kathy said, "My father's a farmer and we have a lot of egg-laying hens. One time we were taking our eggs to market in a basket on the front seat of the pickup when we hit a bump in the road and all the eggs went flying and broke and made a mess." "And what's the moral of the story?" asked the teacher.
"Don't put all your eggs in one basket!"
"Very good," said the teacher.
Next little Lucy raised a hand and said, "Our family are farmers, too. But we raise chickens for the meat market. We had a dozen eggs one time, but when they hatched we only got ten live chicks and the moral to this story is, don't count your chickens until they're hatched."
"That was a fine story Lucy. Johnny, do you have a story to share?"
"Yes, ma'am! My daddy told me this story about my Aunt Marge. She was a flight engineer during Desert Storm and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy territory, and all she had was a bottle of whiskey, a machine
gun and a Machete.
So .. she drank the whiskey on the way down so it wouldn't break. Then she landed right in the middle of 100 enemy troops. She killed 70 of them with the machine gun until it ran out of bullets! Then she killed 20 more with the machete till the blade broke; then she killed the last 10 with her bare hands." "Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "what kind of moral did your daddy tell you from that horrible story?"
"Stay the Hell away from Aunt Marge when she's been drinking

Fire Wood Joke
The Indian Chief thought that it was going to be a bad winter so he sent all the braves out to collect wood. As he watched them return laden with timber from the forest he suddenly felt that he ought to check his forecast so he phoned the local meteorologist office.
"Tell me, is it going to be a bad winter?"
"Yes" said the forecaster " it will be a bad one"
So the Chief told the braves that they didn't have enough wood and sent them back into the forest again. They returned with more wood but once again the Chief had doubts and he called the forecaster to confirm.
"It is going to be a really severe winter" replied the forecaster.
The Chief looked at the wood store, decided that more was required and the braves were dispatched back in to the forest. The Chief called the forecaster.
"Are you sure it's going to be a really severe winter"
"Look" said the forecaster "its definitely going to be the worst winter on record - the Indians are gathering wood like crazy!""

The picture of the guy riding in the street illustrates what is wrong with many in the biking public. He's hugging the line instead of the curb! Why do we spend tax dollars on sidewalks AND bike lanes? If I'm riding a bike, I surely would rather be on the sidewalk and away from vehicular traffic. But no, some of these Lance Armstrong wannbees hug the line near the traffic lane because they think they're privileged or something. Makes absolutely no sense. If you want to ride in the street (and risk your life) try staying closer to the curb. Better yet, use the sidewalk and lessen the risk of meeting an automobile by accident!

Christie, who is Australian-eligible through his Adelaide-born father, is the ninth new member to the Emirates Western Force's back division for the upcoming Super Rugby season.
The former New Zealand Schools representative is one of four strong flyhalf options for the Emirates Western Force in 2013 along with former Cheetahs playmaker and Baby Bok Sias Ebersohn, returning Wallaby Sam Norton-Knight and outstanding rising star and Australian Under 20 representative, Kyle Godwin.
Christie made his ITM Cup debut with Waikato in 2006 and has seven seasons of provincial experience for the Mooloos under his belt.
The 26-year-old began training with the Emirates Western Force a month prior to the Christmas break before being offered the EPS contract.
Head Coach Michael Foley says Christie's signing adds another quality and experienced choice at flyhalf for the Emirates Western Force.
"Being such a pivotal position, we wanted to ensure we had depth at flyhalf this season," he said. "We've now got four quality options at '10' – as well as the ability to cover a number of other positions – through the retention of Kyle Godwin and the recruitment of Sias Ebersohn, Sam Norton-Knight and now Sam Christie.
"Sam's form with Waikato was impressive during the ITM Cup, including a strong showing in their Ranfurly Shield win over Taranaki. We invited him to train with us in the lead-in to Christmas and he demonstrated that he's not only ready to take the next step to Super Rugby when called upon to do so, but is hungry and eager for that opportunity.
"Sam's a confident, attacking player. He's strong under pressure, he's got an accurate passing game and he'll be pushing hard for game time this season."
Christie signs on with the Force having previously represented New Zealand Schools (2004), Bay of Plenty Under 23 (2005) and Waikato Under 20 (2006) prior to making his provincial debut for the North Island province in 2006.
Christie says he's keen to continue his rugby development in the Emirates Western Force program.
"I'm really excited [about this opportunity]," he said. "I've been working hard for a number of years to make it into Super Rugby and to have this opportunity is a really exciting step.
"I like the running style of rugby and the Force is going to bring a great style of rugby this year. We've got some very sharp backs and a versatile forward pack and we've got a chance to play some good attacking rugby which I'm really excited about.
"I'm really happy this opportunity has come for me at the Force. The training and medical staff here are of high quality and they give you plenty of feedback on what you're doing. It was a big learning curve for me when I was here for four weeks [before Christmas]; it was a great experience and I was keen to come back.
"It's a great environment, the guys are really committed and down-to-earth and this is great for me and for my rugby."
Christie joins James Hilterbrand (hooker), Salesi Manu (prop), Mick Snowden (scrumhalf) and Rory Walton (lock) as the Emirates Western Force's five EPS-contracted players for 2013.
2013 Emirates Western Force squad:
Forwards: Chris Alcock*, Phoenix Battye, Richard Brown, Nathan Charles, Angus Cottrell, Pek Cowan, Tetera Faulkner, James Hilterbrand (EPS)*, Matt Hodgson, Kieran Longbottom, Toby Lynn, Salesi Ma'afu, Salesi Manu (EPS), Lachlan McCaffrey, Ben McCalman, Hugh McMeniman*, Rory Walton (EPS)*, Ben Whittaker, Sam Wykes.

OverviewThe try server lets committers try uncommitted patches on multiple platform in an automated way.
How to specify a subset of tests to run-b, --bot to specify the bot-b, --bot is additive, except that if you don't specify it at all you'll get default botsAllowed uses:
Specify multiple builders using the default tests:
-b buildername1 -b buildername2 -b buildername3 or specify multiple different test steps:
-b buildername:some_unittest,some_unittest,some_unittest or specify a --gtest_filter:
-b buildername:some_unittest:GTestFixture.GTestTest -t, --testfilter -t, --testfilter is multiplicative, but if you don't specify it at all you'll get all testsAllowed uses:
Specify different test steps to run :
-t some_unittest,some_unittest Specify a --gtest_filter
-t some_unittest:GTestFixture.GTestTest ExamplesRuns the default tests on 'win_rel' but only compile on 'win':
git cl try -b win_rel -b win:compile Compiles on both 'win_rel' and 'win' without running tests:
git cl try -b win_rel:compile -b win:compile Runs base_unittests on win_rel but no other test:
git cl try -b win_rel:base_unittests Runs a single specific test from base_unittests on win_rel:
git cl try -b win_rel:base_unittests:SpecificTestName Runs base_unittests and in addition default tests on win_rel:
git cl try -b win_rel -b win_rel:base_unittests What are the "defaulttests", you ask? Easiest answer is just to run a try job and look what is skipped. You can also search for the non_default factory property.
Specialized chromium-specific slavesLayout testsLayout tests are now optionally run on normal try builders. Since the tests are not run automatically anymore, you need to specify the exact tests to run:gcl try foo -t webkit_tests,webkit_lint ValgrindWe have linux_valgrind and linux_tsan slaves to run popular valgrind tests.
git cl try foo --bot linux_valgrind git cl try your_cl -b linux_valgrind -t ui_tests:YourTest.Foo e.g.
git cl try test -b linux_valgrind -t ui_tests:HostRulesTest.* Please note that you can run tests locally on Linux and Mac with your usual Debug built binaries, so you can save some time by running Valgrind locally on these platforms. LKGRThe url for the current LKGR is: http://chromium-status.appspot.com/lkgr.
The last known good revision is determined by the last revision that passes green at: http://chromium-status.appspot.com/revisions
The list of tests and builders that need to pass are listed at masters/master.chromium.lkgr/lkgr_finder.py
How does LKGR relate to Tip of Tree or HEAD?LKGR is by definition behind ToT because it needs to be built and tested, and most likely another commit occured before a revision was vetted for LKGR.
Troubleshooting failed try jobsPlease, before contacting maruel, please look at these items:
FAQI'm modifying a DEPS, will it work?Yes.
I'm modifying a GYP file, will it work?Yes.
I'm modifying gyp scripts under src/tools/gyp, will it work?Yes, but you have to use
--no_search , otherwise patch will fail saying it cannot find files to patch.Get detailed command-line helpUse: git try -h (git will redirect --help to man which fails for git-try)
Or: trychange.py --help
Disable automatic try on gcl uploadTo do this for 'gcl try': create a file at '~/.gcl_upload_no_try'
For 'git try' : Edit src/codereview.settings thusly: "TRY_ON_UPLOAD: False"
I have an awesome patch for depot_tools!Use the same way to contribute code that for chromium in general, e.g.
gcl or git-cl .Skip running some/all of the unit tests?gcl try & git try accept -- testfilter t estname:filter-string [-t for short] parameter, this option can be repeated to specify additional tests. For instance:git try -t unit_tests:SafeBrowsingDatabaseTest.*
If you specify a test filter then only the tests binaries you filter on will run (the rest will be skipped). This means you could send a compile only, no test, try job by passing
- t none . You can also use:git cl try --bot win_rel:unit_tests Want to compile something not compiled by defaultAdd the pseudo test 'compile' as a test filer, e.g.
git cl try -b win_rel:compile How can I see what will happen before I submit the job?Use the
--dry_run flag (which implies --verbose ) to (a) see what your patch is and (b) not actually submit the job when using git try or gcl try.apply_issue failedBy default the trybot will patch your change against the LKGR, so there might be differences in the files you are modifying between the revision you've been working on and the LKGR. The easiest way to fix this is check which revision you were using, and then pass it to the try job with --revision. For example, if your change depends on some other changes newer than LKGR, you may want to try the patch against HEAD, i.e., git cl try -rHEAD. If this still doesn't work and:
git try instead of git cl try as follows:
Keep in mind that this means your branch cannot be committed until all upstream branches are committed first, even if the trybots succeed. compiling failedPossible issues:
My patch includes updated webkit baselines (binary files) and it's not workingCorrect! The try servers do not currently support binary patches, but this is being worked on. Star http://crbug.com/23608.
I want to cancel my job, should I press the 'Stop' button?No! DON'T EVER DO THAT. This button is for maintainers and is quite tricky to use correctly. Just let it go.
Why! you ask. You may stop it during the update step and leave the svn checkout locked, breaking the following tries. You may stop it during compilation, corrupting the PDB database, breaking the following jobs. You may stop it during ui_tests, leaving zombies around. You may stop it during unit_tests, leaving temp files around.
Run the try job only on one platformUse
--bot win or whatever 'builder' name you want to use from the waterfall.My patch is in Blink onlyWe highly recommend you to use git. See http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/UsingWebKitGit.
GITGo in src/third_party/WebKit and use cd src/third_party/WebKit ; git-try --bot mac_layout,win_layout,linux_layout GCLSince
gcl try will fail if you don't specify a chromium change, you can use trychange.py directly. Use it from the src directory of your Chromium checkout:trychange.py --sub_rep=third_party/WebKit --bot mac_layout,win_layout,linux_layout See
trychange.py --help for more details.Simultaneously patch code in the WebKit and Chromium repositoriesGITUse
--sub_rep . Don't know what --sub_rep is? Then try git-try --help .cd src ; git-try --sub_rep third_party/WebKit/ --bot mac_layout,win_layout,linux_layout GCLUse
--sub_rep . Don't know what --sub_rep is? Then try gcl help try .Submit a try job for another person (e.g. non-committer)Use Rietvield WebUI with the "Try more bots" link. Alternatively, you can use:
git cl patch -b new-branch-name Rietveld-issue-id
git cl issue Rietveld-issue-id git cl try Where new-branch-name and Rietveld-issue-id should be replaced accordingly (give it a new branch name and link it with the id for the non-committer's CL on Rietveld). I need to hack on a try slave for a few hours?Sorry, only Googlers can do this for now. You can get more information at the internal link. What is the difference between 'git try' and 'git cl try'?
Where can I find the results of webkit layout tests for a try bot build?Under the builder's build results page, look for the step entitled archive_webkit_tests_results. A zip archive of the entire results directory is available the (zip) link under this step. |

at Prosser Public Library & McMahon Wintonbury Library
Public Computers at the Bloomfield Libraries: Prosser Public Library has 12 PCs in the Adult Reading Room, and 2 Macs in the Teen Space from which the public can access the Internet. Prosser also has 4 PCs that provide Internet access in the Children's Room. The McMahon Wintonbury Library has 8 PCs and 4 Macs from which the public can access the Internet. The use of the public computers at both libraries is governed by Prosser Public Library's Computer Use Agreement.
Prosser Public Library & the McMahon Wintonbury Library's Wireless Policy: The libraries provide wireless Internet access for users with laptops or mobile devices capable of receiving wireless signals. All wireless access users should have up-to-date virus protection on their laptop computers or wireless devices. Prosser Public Library also provides wireless printing. Please see the adult reference desk to pick up a flyer about this service. Library staff will provide general information on the settings necessary to access the Internet via these connections, but are not responsible for any changes you make to your computer's settings and cannot guarantee your hardware will work with our wireless connection. If a user has problems accessing the Internet over these connections, staff will verify the library's connections are up and running, but they cannot assist in making changes to the user's network settings or perform any troubleshooting on the user's own computer. Please refer to your owner's manual or other support services offered by your device manufacturer.
The Internet is a public communications network, which means that there can be unscrupulous parties between you and anybody you communicate with. Wireless poses the same risks to your personal information that a wired network poses, as well as some new risks. Cautious and informed wireless users should choose not to transmit their credit card information and passwords while using any public wireless hot spot. As with most public wireless hot spots, this connection is not secure. Potentially any information being sent or received could be intercepted by another wireless user. Please take appropriate precautions when using this service. For more information about wireless security issues, please see the article below. The library will not be responsible for any information (i.e. credit card) that is compromised, or for any damage caused to your hardware or software due to security issues or consequences caused by viruses, or hacking of the wireless network.

Mobile Technology Security Considerations Author: Henry Kumagai Publisher: TechSoup Copyright: 2004 CompuMentor Date Posted: Mar 17, 2006
Description: Get the convenience of wireless computing without the risks. Henry Kumagai, CompuMentor Systems Administrator, and TechSoup provide this overview of the security threats posed by wireless connectivity and the steps you can take to stay safe.
As laptops become more portable and handheld devices more powerful, it's easier than ever to take your computing environment to go. Fast Internet connections are also easier to find when you have wireless connectivity. But with this enhanced mobility comes additional information security risks. By understanding these risks and implementing tools to help minimize them, you can keep your mobile computing safe and convenient.
The Pitfalls of Wireless Networks For road warriors, wireless network technology, often referred to as WiFi, offers a readily accessible and speedy on-ramp to the Internet. WiFi hotspots are becoming increasingly common in the U.S., found everywhere from coffee shops to hotels, even baseball stadiums like SBC Park in San Francisco. Community-based upstarts such as SF Wireless and NYCWireless together are building publicly-accessible WiFi networks in their hometowns. Gartner market research estimates 30 million people will connect to the Internet via public WiFi hot spots in 2004.
However, this proliferation of public wireless networks has evolved with ease of use in mind -- data security has been a secondary concern. Standard WiFi security mechanisms such as Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and the newer WiFi Protected Access (WPA) -- can be cumbersome to configure.
As a result (with a few exceptions) Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) such as T-Mobile HotSpot and Wayport have chosen not to implement the kind of security that protects data transmission on their networks. Simply put, they would rather make their networks easy to use than complicate them with security configurations, which could be a potential turn-off for their customers.
Similarly, in a frenetic rush to lure customers, mobile technology manufacturers have rapidly put products on retail shelves that lack proper safety measures. Laptop computers, personal digital assistants (such as Palm devices), Pocket PCs, and powerful mobile phones with wireless networking capabilities usually don't require security to operate and most come with these features turned off by default. Again, securing devices and explaining how to implement security requires an investment in time, and often it's just easier to forget about security -- that is, until something disastrous happens as a result.
Eight Hotspot Dangers and Ways to Protect Yourself Because of this emphasis on ease of use, wireless networking has a number of vulnerabilities. People connected to an unsecured WiFi network could eavesdrop on your data transmissions (the practice is commonly known as sniffing), and hackers could launch viruses and other attacks. When you connect to a hotspot, you should assume that it is a network environment that you can't trust and that there are pitfalls that could make your wireless experience painful.
A good defense involves layers of security, each designed to thwart certain threats. Anticipate the following hazards and apply some safeguards against them.
Viruses and worms: Keep the nasties out with anti-virus software. It's not enough to be cautious just with e-mail anymore, either. Two recently unleashed worms, Sasser and Korgo, infect one computer and then start looking for other networked computers close by to attack. This is especially dangerous when you're connected to a hotspot. If one hotspot user catches this kind of bug, it may try to get you next. So keep your anti-virus software up-to-date with the latest definitions. Better yet, configure your software to check automatically for updates on a regular basis.
Another closely related and increasingly common threat is spyware and malware. The steps outlined here will protect you from most of this harmful software, but you can also install utilities like the freeware title Spybot Search & Destroy and Lavasoft's Adaware.
Flaws in software: Be diligent about updating key pieces of software -- particularly Microsoft Windows, Outlook, and Internet Explorer -- to close vulnerabilities in them. Take advantage of Microsoft's Windows Update service and Apple's Software Update utility to patch newly found security vulnerabilities. Like virus protection, you can set your computer to automatically check for and download updates. You may have to take further action to install them after they have downloaded.
Intrusions: A personal firewall will help prevent active attacks, such as attempts to search through your computer for interesting information or deliver a damaging piece of software to your system. Windows XP and Macintosh OS X have basic firewall capabilities built-in. Read about other personal firewalls and their more advanced features in "Firewalls and You ." Like anti-virus protection, a firewall also needs to stay up-to-date and be configured correctly in order to be effective against the latest attacks. Software publishers like Symantec and McAfee now bundle their personal firewalls with their anti-virus offering. This is often cheaper than buying the two pieces separately, and there is more integration between them, which offers the ability to update both parts with a single click.
Snoops: Secure the transmission of your data over the wireless network by encrypting it. In basic terms, encryption makes the data you transmit incomprehensible and therefore useless to snoops. If your organization has a VPN, use it to make it virtually impossible to decipher the data you transmit in case someone is listening in. You can also purchase VPN service from a provider. Some WISPs, such as Boingo, offer VPN to Windows customers (for an additional charge), while VPN service providers such as AT&T (see AT&T: Enterprise Business: Products & Services) and MCI (see MCI: Enterprise: VPNs ) have partnerships with WISPs to provide wireless VPN access. You might also want to check out hotspotvpn.com , which offers a low-cost subscription. If VPN is too expensive, at least don't send sensitive information such as passwords, credit card details, or other personal information without securing it first. All widely-used Web browsers support Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connections, which is the standard way of temporarily establishing a secure connection with online retailers and other Web sites with whom you might exchange sensitive data. Also, e-mail is particularly vulnerable to snooping if you are not using encryption. In most cases, e-mail is sent "in the clear" -- there's nothing to scramble the messages or even your usernames and passwords. When you log on to Yahoo! Mail for example, unless you specify an SSL connection before sending your password, there is no security applied to obscure the e-mails you send and receive. Popular e-mail applications such as Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, and Eudora offer ways to establish a secure communications link with e-mail service providers that support secure connections. Finally, don't discount the old-fashioned, over-the-shoulder snoop. In a bustling publicly-accessible space, it's not hard for someone to spy on your keystrokes while you enter the username and password to your online banking account, for example. The same precautions apply to kiosk computers, ATMs, and other machines on which you might enter sensitive information.
Strong passwords: Of course, it makes it much harder to steal passwords if they are complex. A password such as "R#atg09\f" is hard to remember and crack because it has all the elements of a good password -- a mixture of capital and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. But, how do you remember a password that is by design difficult to recall? Check out An Introduction to Internet Security in the Workplace for a more detailed look at strong passwords.
Unrestricted wireless networking configurations: The wireless adapter on your laptop or handheld is capable of operating in two modes, infrastructure and ad-hoc (also called peer-to-peer). At a hotspot, you should disable the ad-hoc mode, which could allow another user to piggyback onto your connection. In Windows XP, depending on which service packs and updates you've applied, these options reside within the advanced properties of the wireless network connection configuration, If you are using OS X, deselect "Allow this computer to create networks" in your Network System Preferences, or don't choose "Create Network" from your AirPort drop-down menu. Also, if your device is powered on and you have your networking set to automatically connect to available wireless networks, you could be associating with wireless access points without even knowing it. To prevent this, turn off any features that automatically connect you to available wireless networks.
Ignorance of risks: Give yourself the advantage by knowing what to watch out for. By reading this article and other information about security, you're already taking an important step towards protecting your computer. Be familiar with the latest news about security threats. If, for example, you hear on the morning news that there is a virus rapidly making the rounds, update your anti-virus program and have a basic understanding of the mechanism the virus uses to propagate (for example, by e-mail attachments, file sharing, etc.). A bit of knowledge about computer security will help you take the appropriate steps to protect yourself.
Security at Home Most likely, you'll want to put your mobile technology to work at home too. If you happen to share a wireless connection to the Internet with others in your household or apartment building, the security precautions outlined above will go a long way to protect you. As well, if you set up your own wireless network at home, it's a good idea to implement the security features on your wireless access point.
Enabling WEP or WPA, disabling service set identifier (SSID) broadcast and turning on Media Access Control (MAC) filtering will make it harder for malicious users to connect.
In an organizational setting, the same rules apply, but it may become harder to implement some of these security measures -- the more users you accommodate on a network, the more difficult it is to administer some of these steps. But with more users come more vulnerable entry points for bad things to happen, so it becomes increasingly important to secure the network.
Loss and Theft
Of course, no firewall or software update is going to protect you from the loss or theft of your equipment. Your information is valuable, but so is the hardware itself. Use cable locks and other devices to secure your equipment where appropriate.
Also, in the event that you do lose your device, password protection will at least slow down a thief or other prying eyes from pilfering information such as credit card numbers and other important data that you may have stored on your machines. It may just buy you the needed time to cancel your accounts or make other arrangements.
Time to Get to Work Now it's time to implement these precautions. There are handy guides on TechSoup (linked throughout this article) to help you with the hands-on work, as well as links to other resources below. Also, go to TechSoup Stock to see the anti-virus and other security software on offer.
Keep in mind that there is an element of cooperative effort when it comes to security. For instance, if more computer users installed anti-virus protection and kept it up-to-date, it would make it much harder for viruses and worms to propagate. A firewall on every computer would slow the spread of spyware. Increasing security on your mobile technology ultimately helps everyone, especially those who may not know how to apply the same security.
At the same time, all this talk about security may seem a bit seem daunting and cryptic. Implementing good security requires diligence. When you consider the other work you could be doing for your organization, the benefits of mitigating security risks may seem small. In reality, only a small portion of the population has the ability, the will, and the time to concoct a virulent virus or hack into a laptop you're using in a café.
Also, no matter which security measures you incorporate, nothing is perfect, and there is no way to protect against every conceivable threat.
But understanding the risks and having an informed sense of which ones may be the most threatening to you will allow you to take the appropriate steps now and in the future as new threats emerge.

Follow Me Home (Explicit)
by Jay Rock
Jul 2011
Strange Music
Thank Strange Music head Tech N9ne for helping Jay Rock land heavyweight guests like Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Will.i.am and Chris Brown. Yet Follow Me Home depends on this gruff-voiced L.A. street rapper that isn't afraid to both celebrate gang life ("I'm Thuggin'") and condemn it ("Just Like Me"). Jay speaks with a cadence reminiscent of The Game, and his best tracks feature his unpredictable Black Hippy crew ("Hood Gone Love It," "Say Wassup"). Follow Me Home has an impressive flow, although the hour-plus running time dilutes its impact.

Turbine India Project - Update Five.
I had the pleasure to meet DR. R. Padmavathi, principal of Success Vocational Junior College in Hyderabad and speak with her students, most of whom are young women from surrounding villages studying medical sciences.
Many of these young women were not encouraged to get an education but have determined to push forward in order to better provide for their families and to be an example of strength to their children. Some, having married by the age of 13 or 14 are now in their early twenties and juggling full time studies with raising two or three children. I was taken by their bravery and grace…
I shared a bit about my business and family and then each of the students told me about themselves. The hour that had been allocated quickly turned to four as they opened up and told me stories of hardship, poverty, fear, and now hope for the future.
The following day, with the coordination assistance of my friend Satish, the students ran a health camp at the nearby village of Imamguda, population 750. Residents were alerted that if they attended the clinic, set up in the local elementary school, they would receive free blood-typing and basic tests, along with a routine exam. There would also be some free medications distributed as required.
(Being interviewed for TV9 India to explain the Health Camp concept and discuss the importance of promoting good health among those who can least afford health care services.)
(The students were served a hot meal prepared by villagers as a thank you for their service and dedication.)
Most of the patients were treated for minor illnesses but as the clinic was nearing closing time, a family approached us as we sat nearby in the shade. The wife explained that her husband had oral cancer and had his tongue removed and despite treatment at a major hospital, was not getting better. She passed me her husband's medical file and although the file stated that 4 rounds of chemotherapy had been administered and charged to the government under a plan for impoverished residents, there was no evidence that he had actually received the treatment. After a few more questions it came to our understanding that the expensive treatment was most likely replaced with glucose intravenous and this man was now gravely ill.
As Dr. Padmavathi explained this to the family, all eyes filled with tears. I wondered what level greed could allow a medical professional charged with the care and treatment of this struggling family's patriarch to pocket funds and leave him to die. His wife, who spoke not a word of English, locked eyes with me and pleaded for me to do something to help them. I was utterly helpless. As Satish translated, I said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." And we both cried.
It was another day of the extremes of emotion in India. Happiness for the residents, who were so thankful; sadness for a family destroyed by the greed of someone they trusted to heal and protect; pride for the students who gave of their time and skills to help others. Again, I am filled with gratitude.

Turbine's Evening of VIP Parties & Encounters with Ryan Gosling, Kat DeLuna, & Mallika Sherawat at Cannes
We had a wonderful evening taking in VIP parties where we enjoyed some interesting encounters with various celebrities and media.
The evening started with dinner at the Carlton. Several celebrities passed our table as we ate; we had a brief encounter with Ryan Gosling - let me say he even looks incredible unshaven and in a simple sleeveless t-shirt! We then moved on to the VIP Party for the new movie "Politics of Love" at The Terrasse" on the rooftop of the J.W. Marriot on La Croisette. One of the stars of the film present at the exclusive party, Mallika Sherawat, had previously visited us at the DPA Gifting Lounge where we gifted her and her entourage three 'Mini Sam Satchels' and an 'Upside Down Dress'; she was a huge fan of the satchels! Also at the party was Carly Steel of "TV Guide", whom we gifted a 'Mini Hobo' bag after she interviewed Linda Cardellini (TV Show 'E.R.') and Michelle Rodriguez (Fast and the Furious, Avatar) at our gift suite. The party ended with the release of thousands of red, white, and blue balloons!
Mallika Sherawat from Politics of Love
At the VIP rooftop party for the movie 'Politics of Love' Later in the evening we went to another exclusive VIP party at 'Martini Beach' - the paparazzi were present, photographing several celebrities and we watched amazing fireworks over the ocean.
Eventually we made our way to the most exclusive club in the French Riviera, 'The VIP Room'. I was dancing on the rotating dance floor when to my left I noticed a small figure stand up on a stage with a microphone and start singing a familiar song - it was Kat DeLuna. Her presence rocked the club and the party went all night; later I found out that this club hosts many huge performers. The Black Eyed Peas performed the night before - what an amazing venue.

Though Brazil's Amazon has been the focus of environmental groups for decades, the deforestation rate there has fallen dramatically in recent years as clear-cutting of Amazonian jungle in eight other countries has started to rise.
As a result, the 40 percent of Amazonia located in a moon-shaped arc of countries from Bolivia to Colombia to French Guiana faces a more serious threat than the jungle in Brazil. The culprits range from ranching to soybean farming, logging to infrastructure development projects.

Charlotte, N.C., host of the 2012 Democratic National Convention, is the nation's biggest financial center outside of New York. But Charlotte and surrounding Mecklenburg County have the highest foreclosure rates in the state, and many thousands of homeowners owe more on their homes than the properties are worth.
As thousands of Democrats converge in Charlotte for the convention, some troubled homeowners have also gathered, lamenting that the foreclosure crisis has not been sufficiently front and center in the presidential campaign.

The number of U.S. families struggling to put enough food on the table remains at record-high levels, according to new figures out today from the government. Last year, 1 in almost 7 households were what the government calls "food insecure." That's about the same level as in 2010, but still far higher than before the recession.

The Voyager 1 spacecraft's 35th anniversary is proving to be unexpectedly exciting, as scientists gathered this week to examine new hints that the spacecraft is on the verge of leaving our solar system.
Voyager 1 is now more than 11 billion miles away from Earth. It blasted off in September 1977, on a mission to Jupiter and Saturn. But it also carried a Golden Record filled with music and the sounds of our planet, in case it encountered intelligent life as it moved out toward the stars.

Many wrinkle creams and lotions sold in department stores, in drugstores and on the Internet promise to reduce wrinkles and prevent or reverse damage caused by the sun.
Do they work? That often depends on the specific ingredients and how long you use them. Because these over-the-counter (nonprescription) wrinkle creams aren't classified as drugs, they're not required to undergo scientific research to prove their effectiveness.
If you're looking for a face-lift in a bottle, you probably won't find it in over-the-counter wrinkle creams. The benefits of these products are usually only modest at best.
The effectiveness of anti-wrinkle creams depends in part on the active ingredient or ingredients. Here are some common ingredients that may result in slight to modest improvement in the appearance of wrinkles.

Season 3 Panel Coverage
Posted By Mike on August 17, 2010
Moderated by David Collins, Dave Filoni and Joel Aron talk as much as they can about the upcoming third season of
The Clone Wars
while dodging spoiler questions from a number of cute innocent children...
(This report is based on Sunday's
S3 Panel)
Things kick off with a clip of S3 in which Kamino is under siege by Ventress, Greivous and the Separatists
- The panel will ultimately feature more
footage than they have ever shown in a panel previously
- Joel Aron: Every detail is meticulously thought out. They wanted the Kamino siege to be bigger in scope than Season 2's
Landing at Point Rain
- Dave Filoni - Still trying to make organic settings more realistic. Look for the look of water to be severely upgraded including reflections.
- The new Trident Drills from the Kamino siege clip were Jules Verne inspired
- New Aquadroids have more sharp angles than regular SBDs.
- The clones on Kamino are clean and have yet to develop their distinguishable traits and personalities...ARC troopers are present as well.
- Rex is a key character
- Dave Filoni: Stop sending cute little kids up to ask about the fate of Ahsoka
- Joel Aron: It takes 10 weeks to make an episode. They are now using efficiencies from the Prequels to make new water and explosion/smoke shots more realistic
- Dave Filoni: Not sure how they are going to do all that they have planned for Season 3 but as always, they'll reach for the skies and figure it out.
- Dave Filoni: Ventress will be quite different from the beginning to the end of Season 3.
We're shown a clip where an injured Ventress lands on Dathomir and encounters her Nightsister mother (get ready for some retcon EU fans)
- Dave Filoni: We're going to learn a lot about the past of Assaj Ventress. (On a personal note, I wonder if, besides the whole Mando thing, this also played into Karen Traviss leaving the EU. I believe she created a backstory for Ventress in the
movie novelization)
- Dave Filoni: The Nightsisters use witchcraft, not necessarily The Force. There are similarities but their powers and uses are different.
- Dave Filoni: Dathomir has a red/blood red color scheme
- Dave Filoni: Season 3 villains are "more potent." Through victories, the Jedi have become overconfident. Look for Dooku to be more evil and intense in S3 while displaying his prowess as a Sith Lord
The next clip shows a sleeping Dooku awakened and under attack by 3 lightsaber-wielding assailants. Dooku's pajamas look comfy.
- Dave Filoni: Season 3 is looking bad for Ventress
- Dave Filoni: George Lucas told Dave to show a lot at CV while the PR department said no. Lucas specifically wanted Dave to show the Ventress clip on Dathomir.
- Dave Filoni and George Lucas drew on EU inspiration for the look of the Dathomiri witches but added their own characteristics.
- Katie Lucas wrote a decent amount on Ventress in Season 3 and sourced a lot of EU material.
- Dave Filoni: In speaking to aspiring film makers - listen to those who know more than you.
We (and Count Dooku) are introduced to the black and gold Zabrak, Savage Oppress. The color scheme of Savage was not so much a nod to Filoni's love of the Pittsburgh Steelers but simply to create a different look from Darth Maul. Watch the clip
- And then with big sound that made your clothes rattle and on one heck of an HD screen, we were presented with the long
Season 3 trailer
! This was also shown again at the end of the panel.
Notes from the fan Q&A:
- Jango was possibly adopted into Mando culture as opposed to being born Mandalorian
- No full episode commentaries with Dave Filoni are on the horizon just yet
- There are tie-ins to the OT in Season 3
- The character of Durge was replaced by Cad Bane in the series.
- There are big leaps in character development in Season 3
- Anakin isn't a bad guy, he was simply deceived.
- Ahsoka is maturing with new fighting styles and less impulsiveness
- Dave Filoni stands and brings up a young kid with the best Commander Fox costume you'll ever see and states that fans like him are why he gets up so early to do what he does for
. (While this is happening, a female fan kind of wanders up on stage and sits in Dave's seat...before being politely led out of the auditorium.)
Make sure to visit Starwars.com for Pete Vilumur's fantastic official write up on the panel as well.
Here are a few more
videos screened at CV and filmed by our friend Aaron Goins. These were recorded during the panels so we'll make sure to let you know when they officially pop up online as well.
Thanks Aaron!

Sturgeon of a Lifetime
Tanner Simmons sends us this photo of a sturgeon in the Fraser River in BC. Estimated around 220 lbs, just over 7.5 feet, never tagged so we got the pleasure of tagging it as well. In the photos Tanner is wearing his G4 Pro™ Stockingfoots, Guide Shirt, Guide Boots with StreamTread™ and his wife is wearing her Women's Headwaters™ Stockingfoots. "Biggest fish of my life, hope it makes your site!" It looks like it, Tanner, and it just did.
