Virus Spyware warning
Updated Jan 28, 2011
Due to recent reports we have cleared all previous posts from this thread. We are still monitoring the situation to determine if the malware is hidden in one of the ads on Farm Town. We will work directly with the ad company if it is determined to be in one of their ads. UPDATED AUGUST 13TH, 2010. 6:30 PM CENTRAL TIME FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO USE MALWARE BYTES AND WERE UNABLE TO LOAD FARM TOWN DUE TO OUR IP BEING DEEMED A MALICIOUS IP THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOW BE SOLVED. THE DEVS WERE ABLE TO CONTACT MALWARE BYTES AND HAVE OUR IP REMOVED FROM THEIR MALICIOUS LIST. IF YOU RECEIVE A MESSAGE FROM MALWARE BYTES AFTER THE DATE AND TIME ABOVE, STATING A MALICIOUS IP HAD BEEN BLOCKED PLEASE POST HERE DO NOT POST LINKS TO THE MALWARE SITES IN THIS THREAD. LINKS WILL BE REMOVED FOR THE PROTECTION OF ALL OF OUR MEMBERS I keep getting warnings that my system is infected with spyware and I need to run a scan, what is this? We are aware and have reported to the developers that many of our players have encountered the malware/spyware while on the FarmTown Site. You should not follow any links to any software claiming to "clean your system". What should I do if I get one of these warnings or pop ups? If you suddenly get a warning that your computer is infected with viruses and you MUST run this scan now, DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK, CLOSE THE WINDOW IMMEDIATELY. It is best if you "right click" and "close" if possible. You should then run a full scan with your antivirus/spyware program to ensure that any stray parts of this malware are caught and quarantined. How does this happen in the first place? These programs are inserted into advertisements or other links by disreputable third parties. Neither Slashkey nor their ad company is placing them in the ads. To say that Slashkey or their ad company is "placing these ads intentionally" is completely inaccurate. They screen the ads as much as possible, but as evidenced by the fact that even sites as large as Google and Fox are susceptible to these attacks, it is also inaccurate to say that Slashkey is being anything less than diligent in their efforts to keep their ads free of spyware/malware. How do I get rid of it? Most good antivirus/malware program will catch and quarantine this malware. If you do research on many of these spyware programs you will also find a myriad of sites proclaiming they are the only ones who can rid you of these programs. This is not true and on a personal level I urge you to use great caution as some of these so called wonder cures are as much of a scam as the malware you are trying to remove. Those of you who know me on the forum know I am the very last person who will proclaim any one antivirus better than the other. However, I am going to mention the one that I use, solely because most tell me they have never heard of it. I use Webroot and every year for the last three years I have been using it this program has been able to find and quarantine all parts of this particular malware. If my obscure program can find it then it is a sure bet most of the more well known ones will find it as well. What is being done about it? Again we have reported this to the developers and if this is associated with any of their ads rest assured it will be pulled as soon as possible. That being said, there is a chance this is from Facebook and/or MySpace and NOT from Farm Town so exercise caution on those sites as well. The developers are working intently both in-house and with the advertisers on verifying the causes of this issue and removing and banning any possible culprits. Should an ad turn out the be the cause of this, they will not only pull the ad, but ban the advertiser from ever running across any of their games again, not just Farm Town. When posting here please provide the following information to help the developers track this down:I am still getting the pop ups and warnings even after you say the problem has been fixed, now what do I do? Some members may still be getting the pop up for the malware even after the offending ad has been pulled. This means that at least part of it did make it into your system. Using a good malware program that is specifically for malware such as Malwarebytes or any of the others mentioned by other members in this thread is your best bet to rid yourself of the last residual bits of the malware. One caution however, if you have another antivirus program running at the same time, be sure that it is not blocking the malware program you are trying to run. As an example when I had to deal with this at my day job the antivirus program supplied by our internet provider did not catch the malware that one of the bosses managed to get, and also blocked the Malwarebytes program from functioning properly. I had to disable the main antivirus program until after the Malwarebytes software was done doing its thing and clearing up the last of the malware left in the system. As stated earlier, any one of the good antivirus/malware programs will stop this issue. Posts in this thread that are solely to promote one browser/antivirus combination over another will be removed without notice to the member. |
Trojan Horse on Farm
Today I cannot access my Farm Town in Facebook. Each time I try to load the farm my anti-virus blocks the page stating a Trojan Horse as the reason. I need help soon I have spent several dollars buying farm cash for new facilities over the past two months. I don't want to lose access to my farm.
I'm getting a threat block from AVG as well. It is listing the Threat name as "Exploit Blackhole Exploit Kit (type 1380)" AVG is only getting hit with it on Farm Town and I had my husband try to log into his farm from his computer and he's getting hit with a block for the same threat.
As per requested by Tiger Laybourne - here are the answers to the questions regarding the threat block I'm getting from AVG when trying to access the game
Are you a Facebook player or a Myspace player Browser type and version (i.e. Firefox 3.5) Chrome 8.0.552.237 - have also tried to access using Firefox 3.6.13 but still receive the blocked threat warning Date and Time and time zone 2/1/11 - first tried to access around 11am. Tried again at 2:20pm and still receiving the blocked threat notice - EST URL of page you were taken too (if any) Not taking me to any pages or sites - it's just a notice that my antivirus detected and blocked the threat Your antivirus program and version AVG antivirus 10.0.1204 and Malwarebytes' anti-malware 1.46 The name of the malware shown by your antivirus/malware program after it found the malware. Exploit Blackhole Exploit Kit (type 1380) If possible please provide a screenshot (use the print screen button) See below - sorry for the blurryness of it. For some reason that's been happening whenever I try to print a screen lately The country you are located in. This information is necessary due to the fact that many of the ads are regional in nature. This helps the devs track down the ad faster. United States - east coast Even if your antivirus/malware program stops an intrusion please note the information you received from your software, and post it using the format above. Most software will give you the url or the name of the program. Like mentioned above, it is blocking the threat but I don't want to continue to play in case something does get past the antivirus program. I do have crops screaming to be harvested and I was in the middle of redoing a farm so I'm seriously jonesing to get back to work |
I don't know if this is of any help or not, but I just tried to play the game and everything was fine for the first minute. At the time the ad on the bottom of the page was for an online college. The ad blanked out to a white box with a small black "X" in the upper right corner and the threat block popped up.
Okay, I've messed around a little more and have noticed that the block only comes up when the ad being shown on the bottom of the page has the spinning gold coin graphic to the left of the ad. Doesn't matter what the ad is for - accounting schools, etc - but if it shows that graphic, it gets blocked. I've had ads on the bottom for Google Chrome and it doesn't cause a virus warning
I had the same problem as Reilsmom. I installed an ad-blocker and no longer have the problem. I'll un-install the thing when the problem is fixed. Slashkey deserves every penny they can get from ads.
Thank you very much, yes that is useful information. It seems to be an ad that AVG is blocking as a threat. You can help directly with the ads by using the tool provided by the advertisers. In the uppper right hand corner of each ad there is a small black x. Click on that x, then click on other in the radio buttons. After clicking on other a text box will open up. Enter the problem there, such as "trojan threat", then click on OK. That feed back goes directly to the advertising company. Please do that and see if that helps. In the meantime, all i can really suggest is either getting an ad blocker for chrome, or possibly trying another browser and maybe the problem ad will not pop up on there. The ads refresh every few mins so i cant be sure about it. The mod that deals with these is not on line at the moment, I will inform them and let them know there is a problem ad, if they need more info they will get in touch. Sorry i cant be of much more help at the moment, hopefully a mod will be on shortly. |
Is it the same ad causing you problems. Please provide the name of the ad. Thanks. |
Thanks Tiger - I'll look into an ad blocker. It's happening on Firefox as well and I know that there are ad ons available to block ads on there so worst case I'll just use that browser until the issue is fixed. I did get a screen capture of the ad that causes the block to help identify it if you need to: (ignore the mess.. it's the farm I'm working on at the moment )

Pros: Brilliant colors, sharp image, and easy setup. light weight. Cons: Image changes in hue from top to bottom and from side to side, as I move my head. It is difficult to tell if the hue is set right, since moving my head just a bit, causes it to change. The image fades from view slightly, at different angles of viewing. Tilting the screen changes hues, top to bottom. So if one image looks faded and I tilt the screen back or forward to clear up the image, then the next image might then look off hue, and I will then re adjust my screen angle. It is difficult to get a screen angle that will work with all images. Someone standing directly behind me, will see different hues then I do, since the height of his or her head is different. Other Thoughts: For the price, I think it is okay. I can live with the hues changing, since I mostly surf the web, or read email, and this does not need the colors to be exact all the time. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great second monitor.Pros: Screen is bright and clear, price. Cons: N/A Other Thoughts: None really. Did you find this review helpful? |
AOC e2251Pros: Low cost. Cons: Serious viewing angle problems. Flimsy stand. Requires recalibration to get reasonable picture. Other Thoughts: I'm reminded to pay attention to reviews in the future. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good monitor for the moneyPros: Good picture, got this for my office to use, data entry. Cons: none. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Bought it @ $99 Cons: Worked OK for 4 days before it died. Other Thoughts: Coming for a 19" LCD I thought the picture looked real good until I plugged in the Samsung I replaced it with. Go the extra $$ it's worth it. Did you find this review helpful? |
awsome monitor except for a dead pixelPros: unbeatable deal. paid 99 bucks. super fast shipping. ordered sunday. got it teusday. led and looks amazing. super thin and modern looking. i loved it! Cons: hooked it up and it looked fine, until i opened google and saw a dead pixel that is only seen on white background. Other Thoughts: with such a low price for really good quality. you cant complain. and newegg was awsome and immediatly told me to return it for a replacement without hassle. Did you find this review helpful? |
great valuePros: I purchased two of these. I think the picture is great. Better than my old monitors. Cons: None 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pros: non Cons: has one green line on the screen, i have to return. 2 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Fantastic Screen, Bargain Black Friday PricePros: 1. Excellent picture quality out of the box. The colors are fantastic and very vibrant. Brightness is excellent, and so are the response times and motion. Very little if any is needed to tweak when you get the screen new. Speaking of tweaking... Cons: Nothing really. Maybe the fact that not having the base on makes it seem a bit liable to fall flat on its face if a quake happens or you have a flimsy table that moves a bit, but even then the baseless configuration works fairly well from what I've tried. Maybe the fact that the touch buttons on this panel (which are on the bezel) doesn't have a backlight like my sister's smaller white 20" AOC (which are on the base). Umm... no included DVI cable? Nothing really doesn't not impress me about it. It will look like it wants to shake itself apart, but I can be sure it's solid from prior encounters with other AOC monitors. Other Thoughts: Newegg Black Friday-Cyber Monday successfully delivers yet again! Picked this baby up for $95 + taxes. AOC should be proud of this panel, it's a massive improvement over my old 1 year old CCFL Acer monitor of the same size. 21.5" of mighty AOC punch right here. They know how to make a good screen. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
very pleasedPros: Shows up bright, super thin, image quality looks great on my xfx 7970, especially when you set the screen to game mode! :) A+++ Cons: semi fragile be careful, no real cons tho! :) Other Thoughts: I recomend this purchase for anyone looking into a low budget gaming monitor. Can't beat this price! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

An interior like a tardis - so all the 'kid/baby stuff' is easily and inconspicously accomodated and exterior like the fab-ist (thats a technical term ) designer bag you could imagine - something akin to the Nico Tote by Il Tutto I think!

Artist: | Bach, Johann Sebastian (biography) |
Born: | 21 March 1685 , Eisenach |
Died: | 28 July 1750 , Leipzig |
The Artist: | One of the greatest composers of all time. Bach wrote hundreds of pieces for organ, choir, as well as many other instruments. He spent most of his life as a church organist and a choir director. His music combines profound expression with clever musico-mathematical feats, like fugues and cannons in which the same melody is played against itself in various ways. |
Composition Date: | 1722 |
Composition Info: | The French Suites, BWV 812�817, are six suites which Johann Sebastian Bach wrote for the clavier (harpsichord or clavichord). The most prominent feature of the French Suites is the way Bach actively seeks the style galant. |

Evidence for tissue selectivity of the synthetic androgen 7α-methyl-19-nortestosterone in hypogonadal men (PDF)
Anderson,Richard A.; Wallace,A.Michael; Sattar,Naveed; Kumar,Narender; Sundaram,Kalyan
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism 88(6): 2784-2793
Publication date: 2003
The potent synthetic androgen 7a-methyl-19-nortestosterone (MENT) is resistant to 5a-reductase but is a substrate for aromatase. It may therefore offer selective sparing of the prostate gland while supporting other androgen-dependent tissues. MENT acetate implants were administered for 24 wk to 16 hypogonadal men, randomly allocated to 1 or 2 implants (groups I and II, respectively; releasing ~400 µg/d·implant). Hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit were maintained during MENT treatment. Prostate volume fell in group I and to a small, but statistically nonsignificant, degree in group II; the level of prostate-specific antigen fell significantly in both. Lumbar spine bone mineral density decreased in both groups. Sexual behavior and erectile function declined in group I, but were maintained in group II. Thus, overall, one MENT implant appeared to provide subphysiological androgen replacement. The 2-implant dose of MENT was able to maintain most androgen-dependent functions, except bone mass, and there was evidence to support selective sparing of the prostate gland. These results demonstrate for the first time in humans the selectivity of MENT in tissues dependent on 5a-reductase. In addition, our data are consistent with the importance of adequate estrogenicity as part of the necessary spectrum of activity of an androgen for replacement therapy in men.

Employed: 60% Continuing Education: 0% Average Graduate Salary: $35,000
The statistics and figures listed above are based upon the Career Survey administered by Oregon Tech's Career Services Office for the graduating class of 2010. The success rate is calculated as the percentage of survey respondents employed, continuing education, or inactive within six months after graduation. Those who are inactive are not seeking employment for a variety of reasons. Average graduate salaries encompass all alumni within a given discipline.
Environmental scientists are hired for a variety of jobs because they have been trained in several disciplines including ecology, biology, chemistry, physics, field methods, and hydrology. Environmental scientists can be biotechnicians, environmental compliance officers, hydrology technicians, sustainability coordinators, energy analysts, geographic information system (GIS) specialists, and fisheries biologists. Environmental scientists are needed by a variety of public, private, and non-profit organizations to collect data and then to analyze that data in order to devise sensible and effective solutions to environmental problems.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts increasing demands on water and natural resources. Because of conflicting demands on resources as well as an increase in complex environmental laws, it is expected that there will be a 25% increase in demand for environmental scientists between 2006 and 2016. The state of Oregon is expected to have a 11.9% increase in demand for environmental scientists as well as a 13.5% increase in demand for environmental science technicians. The workforce needs graduates with "advanced problem solving skills in sciences and technology" as well as experience in computer modeling, data analysis and integration, digital mapping, GPS, and geographic information systems (GPS). Oregon Tech Environmental Sciences graduates are perfectly positioned to meet these growing needs of the state and the nation.

Four Non-Tenders the Brewers Should Think About
MLB Trade Rumors counts 50 players that were non-tendered on Thursday. The question now for Doug Melvin -- ever the bargain-hunter -- is if there are any names worth pursuing.· Looking over the list myself, here are four non-tenders that I thought might be worth looking into:
OF Tony Gwynn
Non-Tendered By: San Diego
2010 Salary: $419.8k
I still have hope for Carlos Gomez, slim as it may be, but doesn't TGJ look a lot better after we spent a year watching Gomez? I joked that Gwynn is Carlos Gomez without power, but a little home run pop is all Gomez really has over our old friend. Gwynn was non-tendered after hitting just .204/.304/.287 last season, but his BABIP was absurdly low at .236, and he's just a year removed from hitting .270/.350/.344. Comparing him to Gomez, his BB% is over twice that of Gomez, he strikes out quite a bit less, he covers much more ground in center, and he hits left-handed. If you're looking for a guy who could be injury insurance for Lorenzo Cain, Gwynn wouldn't be a terrible idea. Definitely a guy Roenicke might have fun with, and he could call up Bud Black for an honest assessment.
(Read More)
OF Jack Cust
Non-Tendered By: Oakland
2010 Salary: $2.65MM
Doug Melvin says he wants power off the bench, and if the interest in Eric Hinske was any indication, it helps if you're left-handed. Well, there probably isn't a non-tender with more power than Cust. Of course, he's pretty much a man without a position, even worse in the corners than Ryan Braun and Corey Hart. He'd probably be nothing more than a pinch-hitter for a National League team, and while his OBP numbers would be attractive as a pinch-hitter, he's pretty clearly not the type of player the Brewers will be looking at with Ron Roenicke managing the team.
P Manny Delcarmen
Non-Tendered By: Colorado
2010 Salary: $905k
Delcarmen has had a rough couple of years, but once was a promising arm out of Boston's bullpen. He got chased out of town last season and finished the year with the Rockies, but it wasn't that long ago that his stuff was really good -- his fastball was 11.3 runs above average in 2008. Part of the reason Todd Coffey was let go was because the Brewers already have quite a few promising young relievers already, but I wouldn't mind seeing the team take a flier on a guy like Delcarmen, either.
P John Maine
Non-Tendered By: New York (N)
2010 Salary: $3.3MM
You may remember the "Corey Hart for John Maine" trade rumors that were swirling at this time last year. It seemed like a decent idea at the time -- Maine was a decent buy-low option, while Hart was a possible non-tender himself last year. After watching this past season, it's probably safe to say it's a good thing the Brewers didn't make that move. Maine is available on the open market now, coming off shoulder surgery he had in July. His best season was 2007 -- 191 IP, 3.91 ERA (4.18 FIP), 8.48 K/9, 2.7 WAR -- but he'd be a decent buy-low option that could end up fitting nicely in a #4 role. I'd be more interested in kicking the tires on him than signing Carl Pavano.
Obviously each player his his flaws, but he'd still be with his team if he didn't. The important thing is that each brings something to the table that could help the team if they're put in a situation to succeed. Looking at the list of non-tenders linked above, are there any players you'd want to see the Brewers take a chance on?

Puzzling is the description of Delta High School's boys basketball play over the past couple of weeks. A loss to bottom-dweller Summit two weeks ago and a win over the 4A WSL leader Palisade (59-56) on Tuesday, Jan. 22, seemed to get the Panthers back on a winning track.
Then Rifle comes to town. The "stumble-bug" returned as Delta fell by a 42-41 decision to the Bears, whom it defeated 57-50 in Rifle on Jan. 18.
The up and down play returned to an "up" on Saturday with a 65-55 win at home over the Battle Mountain Huskies (3-5, 7-6).
Delta (6-2, 8-5) is resting in third place after sharing the league lead with Palisade (7-1, 9-4) a week ago. Eagle Valley is second with its 6-1 and 10-2 record.
Delta 59, Palisade 56
A big win on Tuesday against the visiting Bulldogs put Delta right where it wanted to be — on top of the 4A WSL.
The Panthers started with a 13-9 first-quarter run and kept their offense warmed up enough in the second quarter to take a 25-22 lead to the locker room at halftime.
Douglas Hawkins led the Panthers charge in the period with all 10 of his points coming in the first half.
Each team netted 19 points in the third quarter and followed that with a 15-all fourth quarter to make the final score 59-56.
Chris Black scored eight of his team-high 15 points in the second half with Hawkins' 10 points giving the Panthers two players in double digit scoring.
Rifle's Zach Marengo (15 points, 11 coming in the fourth quarter) shared game-high scoring honors with Black. Skyler Miller had 13 for Palisade's second player in double figure scoring.
Delta's JV won by two points, 23-21.
Rifle 42, Delta 41
The Panthers were outscored 26-21 in the first half of play with Tanner Quick scoring 10 of his 14 game, and team-high, points for Palisade.
Delta had too many turnovers and missed shots in the second half to make a difference offensively. The half-court offense of both teams was stymied by a variety of mistakes. The Panthers cut into the Bears' lead with an 11-8 third quarter and came up short in a 9-8 final period of play.
Keaton Reiher, with four three-pointers, led Delta's offense with 12 points while Hawkins finished with nine.
Rifle's Quick had 14 to lead all scorers in the game.
Delta 65, BM 55
It wasn't a fast start for the Panthers, but they played steady throughout the game to post their eighth win of the season against five losses with a 65-55 decision over the Huskies of Battle Mountain.
Balanced scoring from the Panthers helped them take a 12-9 lead after one period of play and a 32-24 lead at halftime. Joe Lybarger had a hot hand for the Huskies and scored 14 of his 21 game-high points in the first half.
Defenses were the main weapons in the second half as neither team could pull away. Delta did manage to outscore the Huskies 33-31 in the second half.
Reiher scored at least two points in each of the four quarters played to finish with 13 points for the winners. Three other Panthers finished in double digits as well. Hawkins had 12, Black 11, and Ryan Whiteside netted 10 points.
The Panthers are still in the thick of things in the 4A WSL. This week's schedule has Delta on the road once again. Friday's contest is scheduled for a 7:30 p.m. start in Edwards against the Battle Mountain Huskies. On Saturday, Delta is in Gypsum where the Panthers are slated to play Eagle Valley at 2 p.m.

2007 Year in Review
NFPA Journal®, January/February 2008
How would you characterize 2007 for our members?
It was another great year at NFPA. We have had many successes. First of all, we had a very successful NEC® development process the concluded with the issuance of the new edition of the National Electrical Code®. This is always a big event for NFPA. Hundreds of people sit on the code panels that develop the National Electrical Code. I know people wait expectantly for the newest edition to come out. It was a very successful process once again.
Secondly, we have been working very hard on our public advocacy campaigns—specifically, the Fire-Safe Cigarette Campaign. We picked up great support in 2007. We are now moving quickly toward our ultimate goal, which is to have all the cigarettes sold in the United States be fire-safe compliant.
We are very pleased that the rest of the world is following as well. There's action now in the European Union to adopt the same standard we have been pushing in the United States. I think this could be a tremendous advance in fire safety.
What is the overall plan for 2008 when it comes to the fire-safe cigarettes legislation?
At present we have 22 states that have adopted the legislation and we have had success with R.J. Reynolds announcing that by the end of 2009, all of its manufacturing will be compliant. We will continue to push and we have been urging the other companies to take action and switch all their manufacturing. We will keep that pressure on, but in the meantime, we will continue our campaign to get the rest of the states to adopt the fire-safe cigarettes legislation. We are confident that we will get a number of states next year. There is enthusiasm for the legislation. It is less of an exotic idea than it was a few years ago. As more states adopt the legislation other states that have not acted will become more comfortable with the concept. I think 2008 could be the year that, even if we don't reach our goal, we will come very close to it.
Please discuss the importance of the announcement by Reynolds Tobacco.
The Reynolds' announcement was huge. They produce about 30 percent of the cigarettes sold in the United States. We feel very good that they are doing that (manufacturing their cigarettes using fire-safe technology) because it will bring us much closer to 100 percent compliance with the firesafe cigarette standard technology.
I believe the announcement proved the value of our strategy. We said from the beginning, that our goal was to get all the cigarettes sold in the United States to be compliant. The easiest way to have done that would be to get all the manufacturers at the front end to agree to do it. They would not do that, so we said we would go state by state and make it an urgent business item to do it. That strategy worked and Reynolds agreed. We hope that other companies will soon follow suit.
There is no question that the announcement is a big step forward.
One of the things that is at work here that has prevented this from happening has been the competitive concerns of the various tobacco manufacturers. They don't want to lose market share to each other, so they did not want to act before everyone had to act. The fact that Reynolds has determined that it is in their best interest to act now will have influence on the other companies.
The work to bring fire sprinklers into the home has been a priority for NFPA. In 2008, what can members expect from NFPA on this issue?
The Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition has done a tremendous job over the last few years of educating the public and the industry as to the benefits of residential sprinklers. Now we have to begin planning the next step that will move this issue forward.
It is very complicated. There is opposition to residential sprinklers that comes from organizations such as the National Association of Home Builders, but I believe we are beginning to see some changes in attitude there.
Just as we experienced with the fire-safe cigarette, the idea is becoming less exotic. People are getting accustom to the notion of residential sprinklers. There are about 400 communities in the United States that have already adopted residential sprinkler ordinances of some type.
We are now in the middle of analyzing what it will take to get this moving in a big way in the United States. What will it take to get states to adopt residential sprinkler laws? We saw momentum to this issue when NFPA included residential sprinklers in our standards as a requirement for one- and two-family homes. Building on that, we will develop strategies that will get entire states to consider adopting residential sprinkler laws.
This will take a long time. We don't have any illusions about that. This will not be a quick campaign, but over the course of the next decade we hope to gain momentum. Over the next generation, we will see residential sprinklers play a much prominent role than they are today in fire protection.
The 2008 edition of the NEC is now available. What role does this document play in NFPA's mission?
The NEC is the project that has the greatest impact on safety. I say that, not because the other things we do are not important. They are all important, but the NEC is so universally followed in the United States and in many places around the world that has an enormous impact on creating a safer environment. It is relied upon by millions of people as the source for electrical safety.
There is no question that new edition of the NEC is always a big event in NFPA's life and it is at the core of safety mission.
What are your expectations for 2008 and how can members assist in fulfilling those goals?
One of the things we have seen develop within NFPA in the last few years is our membership playing a larger role in our advocacy campaigns. The fact that we were able to mobilize large and important pieces of our membership, such as the fire service and our health care members, behind the fire-safe cigarette has been a tremendous advantage in this campaign.
As we get more of our membership engaged behind our other ideas, such as residential sprinklers, I believe our membership will have an opportunity to play an important role in advancing this advocacy approach we have developed.
It is so much easier to communicate with our members than it ever was. We have the Internet. It used to be that our members would hear from us through the mail. They would read NFPA Journal. They would read our other publications. They still do, but there is a much more instantaneous communication today than there was before. We get more feedback from our members than we have before. This has really strengthened our organization.

This instructable will show you how to export a Flash iPhone project to an IPA without a Developer Connection with Apple, and then how to test that app on your iPhone.
Please note, you still will not be able to publish the apps that you create on Apples AppStore. (Well I don't know what would happen if you tried, but I don't see it turning out well).
Here's what you'll need:
- Flash CS5
- iPhone/iPod Touch
- The iPhone/iPod Touch needs to be jailbroken
- You need to be able to install IPAs by dragging them into iTunes or some other method
You'll need to look up instructions on the latter two if you're not sure on what those are.
To be honest I'm not 100% sure that your iPhone needs to be jailbroken before doing this. So if someone without a jailbroken iPhone wants to try this, by all means do and let me know how that works out.
Step 1: Design Your App in Flash
Once Flash is open go to the File menu and chose New...
And then in the New Document dialog, choose iPhone OS, and then click OK.
You should see a blank white box.
Using the Text tool on the right side of the screen, write some words in the box.
Great Whenever landed up here I am learning good number of new approaches to start with iOS app development, and also the step guide helps me always I rely on this site for coding new start of iPhone apps.
Do i need jailbrake to upload this app on ipad?
Why i just cant install app Via USB
Thanks for the article. I have successfully followed until step 2.
However I am stuck at step 3, specifically in the last 2 paragraphs there:
"On the left menu in iTunes select your device.
Then on the tabs on the top click Applications. Make sure Sync Applications is checked. You should see your application in the list. Make sure the box next to it is checked as well.
Now press sync at the bottom of the screen."
How do I select my device in iTunes? and where can I find this Sync Applications?
Thx again.
Thanks a million for this tutorial and files! This is great for getting your feet wet.
Is there a problem with these keys or something changed in new itunes?!
I can't install my apps anymore..
"No se ha vinculado ninguna biblioteca compartida en tiempo de ejecucion (RSL) para su configuracion de publicacion: iPhone OS".
what should I do?
culdo you help me please?
when i publish the file its like publishing,and then a messege pops out that says java.exe has crushed and it ends the publishing , how can i make it work ?
this is what I did with my iPod 4 with iOS 4.2.1 after a lot of researching:
1) downloaded "redsn0w" v0.9.6b4 for windows.
2) since I am on windows 7 set it to run with "Windows XP compatibility mode" and as an adminstrator.
3) using iTunes (latest) updated the firmware then restored it.
4) copied my firmware "iPod4,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw" found in "Users\MyName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates" to the redsn0w folder.
5) ran redsn0w and browsed for the copied file.
6) clicked next kept the settings as it is then followed the instructions.
now an app called "Cydia" but it wont run.
7) ran redsn0w again, selected "just boot it tethered right now", nexts...
the device will boot now, and you can run Cydia (with wifi connection)
8) let it update the database, then search for "AppSync for iOS 4.2" and download it.
9) restart then do step 7 again.
10) now you can use your ipa ;)
It is really good that I can test my app before I buy an app developer ID.
Anyway it only works with jailbreak for me, it writes the same error when I try to sync it without jailbreak as a downloaded app.
Thank you again for your effort!

In twenty continuous days of evangelistic YFC meetings with this team as the central attraction, about 400 lost souls came forward to accept Christ as personal Savior (October 1950), an undated (ca. 1954) newspaper clipping with photo and information about the return of the Faircloths from their first term in Portugal (located after January 1954 letter), a photo pray card for the Faircloths with their four daughters (ca. 1955), newspaper clipping (June 1955 ) about the farewell for the Faircloths return to Portugal for their second term, an interesting "Special Prayer Letter" (after May 1956 letter) in booklet format describes the various ministries the Faircloth's were involved which including evangelism, literature distribution, education, and a farm program.
Several letters mention Faircloth attending the Greater London Crusade (September 1966), World Congress on Evangelism (January 1967), and the North of England Crusade of which he said it seemed to set my heart on fire for a wave of the Spirit of God in this county, using all available possibilities (February 1962), involvement in the International Conference for Itinerant Evangelists, Amsterdam '86 (September 1986), and Billy Graham's visits to Portugal to speak at a ministers' meeting (December 1970) and the Tyndale Seminary in the Netherlands (December 1985). Information about the Christian work being done by Faircloth's daughters (April 1985, December 1986) or being planned (April 1980)
Faircloth's ministry at Tyndale Theological Seminary in the Netherlands (1984-1990), information on Tyndale students (October-November 1987 to April 1988, March 1989), Faircloth's retirement letter (June 1990), all but one letter from 1994 to 2001 are addressed to specific individuals, two letters (July 24, 2000) describe Faircloth's teaching a course in church planting and development at the masters level, and the last letter (June 5, 2001) tells of his teaching graduate students at TTS and his trip to Portugal to dedicate the new sanctuary of a church he planted thirty years ago.

Donald Hume was born December 1919 in England. He was given up for adoption by his mother, setting the foundation for a bitterness against the world. A criminal associate of Hume's kicked his beloved dog in a dispute, leading Hume to kill and then dismember the victim and dump him in the English Channel. The prosecution was unable to convince the jury of his guilt and Hume served a shortened sentence.
Early Life
When the torso of wealthy businessman Stanley Setty appeared in the Essex marshes outside London in 1949, police had a difficult case to crack. They eventually arrested Donald Hume, a business associate of Setty, but all they could prove was that Hume had dumped the body—they were unable to prove he had committed the murder. Hume was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment for being an accessory to murder. On his release in 1958 Hume admitted that he had killed Setty during an argument at his apartment, but now he was free to commit further evil—he was soon back in prison after killing a taxi driver in Switzerland.
Donald Hume's early life had been fraught with emotional tension and trauma. His experiences led him, by his own admittance in his book Confession, written while he was serving behind bars, to become a one-man vendetta against the world.
"I was born with a chip on my shoulder," he confessed, and this chip had grown from the moment he was abandoned at an orphanage by his mother. According to Hume, his issues with society grew from being illegitimate, deprived of a home and a mother's love, denied not only by her but also by other members of his family.
Hume was the illegitimate son of a school mistress, born in December 1919. He was shortly abandoned by his mother to the West Country orphanage, which he loathed, particularly the three old ladies who ran it.
The place was bleak and forbidding, but worse it was also lacking in any compassion for the children, who at that time were looked upon as the product of sin and treated accordingly. The proprietors even kept a parrot that shouted out the word bastard, just to remind the young residents of their lowly position in life.
Life in the orphanage was tough and devoid of the usual comforts expected in a family home. Often eight children would sleep in an iron bed and food was sparse. Punishments included being locked in a filthy, dank cellar for hours on end, but more disturbing was the creation by the proprietors of an eerie character known as the old green gypsy.
A member of staff would dress up in green garb and appear as a visitation to scare the children. The 'green gypsy' also carried a green walking stick that rattled as the amateur actor in drag performed their macabre act to scare the wits out of the young residents.
One day, after been locked in the cellar with a young girl for a misdemeanor, the two youngsters became terrified when they believed they were about to be visited by the Green Gypsy. But Hume recognized the feet under the Green Gypsy's dress as belonging to a member of staff, and in a fit of anger at being conned by a cruel myth, chased the member of staff with an axe.

The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB) is known to occur in Minnesota, and was found invading homes in small numbers (one or two bugs per home) in the winter of 2010/2011. Like most other invasive species, it is expected that populations and associated impacts will increase. Below is a summary of tactics for homeowners to use if considering control of BMSB. This information was derived from publications by various university extension services on BMSB and similar home invading pests.

I upgraded two of my home systems from Breezy to Dapper Kubuntu. One is AMD-64, one is i386. I write about this stuff for a living, and would rather tinker than work anyday, so it here we are. The upgrade went OK, but not nearly as well as a plain-vanilla Debian installation. And the K/Ubuntu devs seem determined to make printing painful.
TurboPrint users be warned- you need to upgrade.
First of all, here is your handy-dandy four-step guide to upgrading to a new Ubuntu release:
-run "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" to bring your Breezy installation into a current state
-edit /etc/apt/sources.list. Comment out all the non-official Ubuntu repositories. Change all the "breezy" entries in the rest of them to "dapper"
-run "apt-get update"
-run "apt-get dist-upgrade"
The download and installation went smoothly. However, a number of irritating things happened.
A lot of configs were stomped. Yes, I had backups of my dotfiles and /etc, but that's no excuse- configs should not be touched. This is a bug.
A lot of applications were removed. This is the real puzzler- never, in all of my years of putting Debian throught its paces, did it remove applications on its own. The Dapper upgrade ate Gparted, K9Copy, K3b, and several others. This is a bug.
Printing is STILL fuxxored, and it's a shame, because the 1.2 release of CUPS is very nice. Finally, you can perform complete server administration from the CUPS web interface. Except on K/Ubuntu, because the devs, for no good reason, continue to disable the CUPS web interface. Fortunately the front page of the CUPS web page tells you how to re-enable it. The Gnome printer manager is no good for server administration, it is NOT a good substitute for the CUPS web. The KDE printer manager is pretty nice, but it still has problems. And that's no good for non-KDE users.
TurboPrint users, you need to upgrade your TurboPrint installation. If you have licensed any 1.xx version you get free upgrades for all 1.xx versions. Complete instructions are on the TurboPrint Web site.
The Gutenprint drivers are beautiful, and give you a wider choice of color printers.
Overall, K/Ubuntu is a nice distribution. It's not the best, not by a long shot- it still has a lot of kinks to work out. But it has a lot going for it, like a friendly community, nice default package selections, and a great PR machine. Now all they need is a lot fewer bugs.

The Evolution of Treasury Cash Management during the Financial Crisis |
Volume 18, Number 3 2012 |
JEL classification: A19, B26 |
Authors: Paul J. Santoro The U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve System have long enjoyed a close relationship, each helping the other to carry out certain statutory responsibilities. This relationship proved beneficial during the 2008-09 financial crisis, when the Treasury altered its cash management practices to facilitate the Fed's dramatic expansion of credit to banks, primary dealers, and foreign central banks. |

Just curious who everyone would want if Davis and MKG weren't options. I know some people here have a hard-on for Lillard, but watching Drummond play, and following his numbers throughout the season, I would probably lean toward him. He would have gotten a lot more minutes with us, and he would likely be putting up around 11 and 11 with a couple blocks.
I'm totally happy with MKG, but I thought it was an interesting hypothetical.
