'Castle' Season 5 Beams Down 'Star Trek' Star for 'Firefly'-Tinged Comic-Con Episode
'Castle' season 5 certainly started with a bang (or depending on your point of view, started after the bang), but things are just getting started for the fifth season of ABC's hit literary procedural. For weeks now we've been hearing about what could be 'Castle's most meta episode to date, where Castle and Beckett investigate a murder at a Comic-Con-like convention, involving a 'Firefly' analogue series. There's more sci-fi fun to be had however, as one (nigh unrecognizable) 'Star Trek' star has joined the mix!
Castle and Becket had better have deep pockets if they hope to get anything out of upcoming "The Final Frontier" guest star Armin Shimerman. As TVGuide reports, the former 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' and 'Star Trek: Deep Space Nine' Quark will make an appearance in the sci-fi themed episode, guesting as Benjamin Donnely, a techie who manufactures authentic costume props for convention cosplayers.
'Castle' isn't the only thing Shimerman and series star Nathan Fillion have in common however, as both previously guested on Joss Whedon's 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer,' playing Principal Snyder, and the villainous Caleb, respectively.
As directed by 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' star Jonathon Frakes, the episode will see Beckett and Castle investigating a death at a comic convention, which also puts them in the path of washed-up actor Gabriel Winters (Eureka's Ed Quinn), better known for playing Captain Max Richards of the cancelled cult sci-fi series "Nebula 9″ (sound familiar, 'Firefly' fans?). Joining Quinn in the fun is one-time 'That '70s' Show' star Chrstina Moore, playing actress Sarah Stern, whose fortunes have been far more successful than Winters since her time playing "Lt. Chloe" of the cancelled series.
What say you, 'Castle' fans? Are you excited to see the series go meta sci-fi once more? What did you think of the premiere? Give us your take in the comments below!

Tea Party rally by Rena Schild / Shutterstock.com
How strong is the Tea Party today? Will IRS targeting of Tea Party groups reinvigorate the movement? One way to begin to answer the question is to examine how views of the Tea Party have changed since 2010 when the pollsters began to track opinions about it. AEI's public opinion team does just that in this compilation, reviewing trends from 9 major pollsters on Tea Party activism, support, and favorability. Even though questions about the Tea Party are not asked as frequently as they once were, many of the questions in this report show a slight drop in support since 2010, when they were first asked. Recent questions in the wake of the IRS scandals, show conflicted evidence of an increase in support.
Quinnipiac University and Fox News ask one of the most specific questions about involvement – whether you are "part of the Tea Party movement." In August 2012, 16 percent of registered voters told Fox News they were part of the Tea Party movement. When Fox first asked the question in January 2012, 16 percent also gave that response.
Gallup, AP/GfK-Roper, CBS News and the New York Times, and NBC and the Wall Street Journal ask people whether they are "supporters." A March 2013 CBS/New York Times question and an April 2013 AP/GfK-Roper survey produced almost identical responses (22 percent said they were supporters in the former, 23 percent in the latter.) AP/GfK-Roper, CBS, and NBC find that around six in ten now say they aren't supporters. Gallup gives people the option of saying "neither" and this affects results. The ABC/Washington poll asks a different question about whether people support or oppose the Tea Party. Their latest May 2013 poll shows that 40 percent support and 43 percent oppose, slightly down from the 44 percent who supported it and 43 percent who opposed in August 2012.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
A MESSAGE FROM GREATSCHOOLS: On January 14, officials are reporting that a shooting has occurred at Berrendo Middle School, leaving several people injured. Out of respect for the families, students, teachers, and community at large, we are temporarily suspending the publication of new comments about this school. You may still submit reviews but please be advised that they will be held and subject to review by our editors for consideration at a later date. All reviews must adhere to our guidelines. Our thoughts are with the community of Roswell.
Since the old principal moved to a different school in 2011-2012, BMS saw an immediate positive shift in direction. The new principal was very positive and supportive and communication became much more positive as well. The school is made up of a staff of teachers who challenge and motivate the students to do their best. BMS is the best school in the city!
Berrendo is a great school. The techers are always very helpfull and I'm very glad my child will be going there.
i am a student the bullying is....rare.mase club this year are windmills are lifting things its very exsiting!
I feel this school is a wonderful learning center for all children of Roswell. I hope that it continues to grow in size aquity and everything else.
I find this school great for my daughter, her grades are high and she is very healthy. I recommend this school to many parents. I have fun learning facts from my daughter everyday!
I have been very happy with this school. Teachers are quick to let me know of my child's progress and return my calls. Communication has always been good, and teachers make every effort to stop bullying when they are aware of the situation.
This school is not run at all good. The kids are bullying kids and the pricipal and the teachers are not doing anything to stop it. I had to g and move my child to another school and her grades went up and the problems went away.
Im a student at this school and this school is very bad at keeping the peace because of the fights. I think kids fight mostly because they just want more freedom and thats because of the uniform policy.
This school is not a safe place for my children to learn. Communication between teachers, staff and parents is minimal. I could not get a reply to my concerns and was met with defensiveness when I attempted to help my daughter. I don't feel like I was ever rude or confrontational and yet was unable to get help because of the defensive attitude of the principal and vice principal.
The lack of communication from Berrendo Middle School is appalling. The new Principal is ineffective in her communication with parents and students alike. Our children are not in good hands at Berrendo Middle. The academic programs are questionable at best. The lack of communication with extra curricular activities is the same.
School administration totally discourages parents from participating.
Parents are discouraged from coming to school..Do not let their 'Parent Pro-tem' attitude get to you..As tax payers and the actual Parents; we are their BOSS! That is what bothers them..
This is a school that discourages parents from participating or even being present. I find it ridiculous that this school considers the presence of parents to be a 'safety issue'.

Annual festival draws 8,000
By BARRY BURLESON
Walter Hubbard called it "a glorious weekend."
The director of the Strawberry Plains Audubon Center, his staff and volunteers hosted the 11th annual Hummingbird Migration Celebration.
"Everything went smoothly," he said. "We had approximately 8,000 people, and of course, it rained some Friday and Saturday. The Saturday rain definitely hurt our numbers, but it was a great Sunday."
Visitors came from states such as Florida, Illinois and Texas, plus from neighboring states and communities all across Mississippi.
He said guests from Pensacola, Fla., were at the center Tuesday morning (after the festival) and "people from all over are visiting this week."
Renowned hummingbird expert Bob Sargent and his team, the Hummer/Bird Study Group, banded 259 new hummingbirds during the three-day event.
"There were so many hummers, we had to cease the capture process a dozen times during the festival," he said in an e-mail to Hubbard after the weekend activities.
"Never have I seen so many ruby-throated hummingbirds at this beautiful location."
Many had the chance to feel the heartbeat of the bird and learn how to attract them to their own backyard.
The festival also featured much more than hummingbirds - including lectures and demonstrations with live bats, snakes and other wildlife, nature walks, a kid's nature tent, a plant sale and various vendors.
Strawberry Plains Audubon Center, located just off Highway 311 on the outskirts of Holly Springs, showcases 2,600 acres of magnificent forests, grassland and native plant gardens, plus the majestic Davis House.

I'm still experiencing major lag and lag spikes. I was just playing my game online and a huge lag spike completely froze me for around a minute or two.Seriously Verizon, you need to look into this and fix your shoddy network, it's been a damn month already with no resolution.
You can vent all you like, its not a Verizon's issue, its the peering points with is the down stream network limitationLooks like the days of lag free internet are over when all the kiddies go to play their games
For just the sake of comparing things, do a search for "looking glass server" and compare their results to yours. At least you will get an idea if it is an issue localized to VZ or seen by other carriers as well. It may also help you set your expectations.

|Armenian First Ascent Open Festival - May 22-23, 2011 Bouldering site at Chiva village
|Written by Mkhitar Mkitaryan
|Thursday, 02 June 2011
This amazing bouldering site, on the slopes of the mountains above the Chiva village, was discovered by Jared Nielson. It's located some 15km closer than Noravanq Canyon when you drive from Yerevan. There are countless boulders with a huge potential of hundreds of bouldering problems from V0 to V8 and higher. There are two large flat areas among the boulders which may serve as campsite.
The area is somewhat isolated from the nearby village and population. However, some 200m of offroad will get you to the asphalt after which 5min of drive will lead you exactly to the village. There you can buy food and fill the water containers to hang out at the bouldering site for next day. Surrounded by the mountains, you get a miraculous view of them on the background.
We got to this campsite in the evening of May 22. It was the next small surprise for the event participants to have another location and rock formation during the event, where they could do some bouldering first ascent. From the other side we had an opportunity to estimate the potential of the area by the feed back of the event participants.
At midnight Andranik and Gri-gri(Grigor) drove to the camp with a B-day cake for Aurelia Schwarzmann, on May 23 she became 25. Well, some had already fallen asleep but it still was the best "cake-time" as on May 23 afternoon Aurelia was going to leave for Yerevan.

In the waning days of a glorious Midwestern summer, an American tradition sings its familiar encore. Like baseball, hotdogs, family vacations, and concerts in the park, hot rodding elicits a similar warmth from inside. Friday night cruising, car shows, stoplight encounters, and popping a cold one while changing oil on a languid summer day are all uniquely Yank experiences, but our Midwest siblings have it the best. There's no use arguing about it. Maybe it's those bone-chilling winters or the endless springtime rains, but Midwesterners make up for it with plenty to spare after Memorial Day-and they don't let off the gas until Mother Nature puts it all to bed by Thanksgiving.
Midwesterners have a stewardship for our country's rich automotive heritage that escapes lesser regions. Take, for instance, this winter's auto bailout-which garnered little support outside core Midwestern states. These guys "get it," while others of us can't fathom it. When it's time to pick cities for the Power Tour, you don't see them rolling through D.C., San Francisco, New York City, Boston, or even Los Angeles, do you? No. They tag Chi-town and environs. What we're saying is that deep down, if you're a true muscle car motorhead, there's a little Midwesterner in you, no matter where you live. Believe it.
Motorheads roll through the suburbs of Chicago like blood coursing through the veins of a rutting bull. And at no point in the year are the automotive pheromones stronger than during the fall equinox. The place positively breathes octane. The scene of our story: the Goodguys Second Peak Chicagoland Nationals in Joliet, Illinois, on the weekend of September 19-21. Like a mechanical million man march, motorheads converge on the Chicagoland Speedway for summer's last stand, and the dedicated staff at Goodguys doesn't disappoint. In their never ending desire to cook up new ways for Americans to enjoy their muscle car iron, Goodguys-our partners in crime-have concocted the diabolically delicious Street Challenge Autocross for go-ers, and the Mighty Muscle corral for show-ers. And while elder statesmen hot rodders with their street rods and kustoms have plenty else to do at a Goodguys show, these two arenas are reserved strictly for our kind of roughhouse hooligans!
Laguna Of The MonthThe car corral is always a fun place to hang out at a Goodguys show, and the one at Joliet didn't disappoint! We found the brother to our Laguna project-another '75 owned by Kevin Campbell. It's for sale (asking price: $14,250), and interested parties can call Kevin at 708-709-2886. We were impressed with the visuals, including a sweet two-stage paint job and Boyd Coddington wheels (17x8 and 18x9s rims with 255/45R17 and 295/45R18 rubber). This thing has been restored back to life with some careful appointments: new A/C, custom dual exhaust with Flowmasters, ceramic-coated Dynomax headers, rebuilt 350 with a new Demon carb, rebuilt Turbo 350 trans, QA1 shocks, lowering springs, two-inch drop spindles, new carpet, seals, headliner, package tray, scuff plates, and lots of new or rebuilt stock equipment. We wouldn't call it a strip terror, but it's a very nice driver with great curb appeal.

The Eagles are doing right by their new starting quarterback. According to scout.com's Adam Caplan, the Eagles and Kevin Kolb have agreed on a one-year extension rumored to be worth $12.26 million in guaranteed cash.
Why only one year? Blame the lack of a new CBA and something called the 30% rule, which limits a player's base salary growth to 30% from one year to the next. Guaranteed money does not apply to the rule, so the majority of the extension will be tied up in up front payment.
This represents a strong commitment to Kolb from the Eagles. He is no longer the lowest paid starting signal caller and is now signed through the 2011 season.

Small-block Fords have been produced in displacements ranging from 221-400 ci, but as you might guess by now, there were a number of different series of these engines. The 221/260/289/302 engines were the Fairlane series, and then there are the 351 Windsors, 351 Clevelands, and finally the 351M and 400s. Interestingly, some aftermarket suppliers don't classify the 351 Cleveland or the 351M/400 engines as small-blocks, presumably due to the large, canted-valve heads. But since they feature the same 4.380-inch bore spacing as the Fairlane and Windsor engines, and Ford Racing Performance Parts classifies them as small-blocks, that's good enough for us.

It would have gone either way, but in America's cup 2013 Oracle Team USA beat Emirates Team New Zealand by a whisker with only 31 second difference
In what could be termed as major breather, Oracle Team USA managed to defeat Emirates Team New Zealand by 31 seconds during the America's Cup sailing competition San Francisco Bay. With this win, the team has avoided the elimination from the competition that was looming large over them.
The present victory leaves the defending champions, sponsored by Oracle Corp. (ORCL) Chief Executive Larry Ellison, behind 8-2. The team still needs to win seven more races in order to claim the 162-year-old regatta. On the other hand are the New Zealand backed by Emirates who require just one.
Adding that the victory was the result of a good start and mistake-free sailing by tacticians Ben Ainslie and Tom Slingsby, Spithill said: "We were able to get a nice jump off the line and from there Benny and Tom sailed a very nice race. If you get behind in a race, it's very difficult to find a passing lane unless someone makes a mistake and between Benny and Tom, they didn't allow any passing lanes."
Expressing hope that his team would bring back the speed advantage presently being savoured by New Zealand, Oracle helmsman Jimmy Spithill said: "Yes, we can win seven more races. We're in quite a different situation now where we're clearly confident in our boat and we believe we can do it and we've almost got nothing to lose."
On the other hand, despite one more to go for the cup, team New Zealand is not taking it lightly. Dean Barker, New Zealand's skipper said: "We don't believe this is over until we win one more race," he said. "It's a battle. You have to fight incredibly hard for every point. There are no gimmes out here."
Earlier in the fight, Oracle took over New Zealand on the starting line and then again at the first turn by taking the advantage to 11 seconds by the end of the second leg. Headed back upwind toward the Golden Gate Bridge, Oracle repeatedly forced the Kiwis in directions that caused disadvantages with the wind and current, extending the lead as the two 72-foot (22-meter) catamarans headed back toward the finish line.

Further Delay for 747-8 Intercontinental
Boeing CEO Jim McNerney today revealed a further delay of the 747-8 Intercontinental, from the second quarter of 2011 to the fourth quarter of that year. Speaking during the company's first-quarter earnings call this morning, McNerney blamed the estimated six-month delay on the "softening freighter market and the resulting decision to delay a planned increase in 747 production."
This month's announcement by Boeing of plans to slash production of the 777 from seven to five per month included mention of the decision not to speed production of 747-8s. Last year Boeing delivered fourteen 747s, all freighter versions of the 747-400. Boeing still expects to deliver its first 747-8 Freighter to Cargolux during next year's third quarter–some nine months later than originally planned but consistent with a schedule modification announced last November.
McNerney said the move "is consistent with the discussions we've had with our Intercontinental customers and was factored into the first quarter production decision financial impacts."
Although Lufthansa remains the only airline customer for the 747-8, Boeing has sold eight VIP variants, and, according to a company spokesman, plans remain in place to deliver the first Intercontinental to a VIP customer shortly before Lufthansa takes its first airplane. Lufthansa holds orders for 20 of the 970,000-pound, wide-body airliner, and expects delivery of its first airplane in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Interpretive and Supportive Psychotherapies: Matching Therapy and Patient Personality
For individuals in the U.S. & U.S. territories
In Interpretive and Supportive Psychotherapies: Matching Therapy and Patient Personality, authors William E. Piper, Anthony S. Joyce, Mary McCallum, Hassan F. Azim, and John S. Ogrodniczuk offer a framework for making short-term psychodynamic therapy easier, quicker, and more effective.
Despite shared theoretical roots, short-term dynamic therapies differ widely in objectives and techniques. An approach may fall anywhere from "interpretive" to "supportive." Interpretive therapies emphasize insight into repetitive conflicts and traumas underlying a patient's problems. Patients are urged to talk, explore uncomfortable emotions, and focus on past figures. Supportive therapies emphasize improving the patient's immediate adaptation to his or her environment and are characterized by praise, guidance, structured problem solving, and therapist disclosure. Both forms have a proven record of effectiveness, but neither is right for every patient.
As an aid to optimal matching, the authors offer a framework for differentiating the many different forms of short-term psychodynamic therapy, based on where on the interpretive–supportive continuum certain key features lie. They show how two patient characteristics—quality of object relations and psychological mindedness—are relevant to success in each form of therapy. The inclusion of treatment manuals and ample clinical illustrations highlight the practical relevance of this essential guide.

OPM: Federal agencies open Thursday
Wednesday - 8/24/2011, 8:49pm EDT
By Julia Ziegler
Federal News Radio
Federal agencies in the Washington, D.C. area will be open Thursday, according to the Office of Personnel Management.
"Employees are expected to report to their worksite or begin telework on time," per the agency's website.
However, OPM also advised all employees to check with their individuals agencies and supervisors for the "most up-to-date information on the status of individual workplaces."
Some federal buildings, including the National Building Museum, Interior Department, and the National Archives facility in Suitland, Md., had been closed Wednesday following the 5.8 magnitude earthquake that shook the area Tuesday afternoon.
Of the federal buildings that Federal News Radio confirmed were closed yesterday, all but one now report on their agency websites they will be open Thursday, including the Federal Aviation Administration's headquarters buildings 10A and 10B.
However, the National Archives Washington National Records Center in Suitland, Md., will remain closed Thursday, according to the Archives website.
In an interview with Federal News Radio, Angela Bailey, OPM's associate director for employee services, discussed the issue of timing in posting the closures.
"We did have conversations with GSA and with ourselves on it's not really necessarily in OPM's swim lane to do building closures," Bailey said. "That's not what we do for a living but we just felt that in this particular situation it was really important for us to stand up and take a leadership role in this particular case. We clearly understood that it was a fluid situation. We clearly understood that we were probably going to get a few buildings wrong in the process, but we thought it was in everyone's best interest to take a leadership role and step up and do the best that we could to help and provide the list as we knew at that point in time."
The information on OPM's website came directly from GSA, Bailey said, and she added that OPM went through the list of closures one-by-one before posting to the site.
"We started double-checking, we started triple-checking," she said. So anything that was coming in from GSA, we were following it up with phone calls to the chief human capital officers to say, 'Is this your confirmation? Do you have the same information?' So we could reconcile everything that was going on."

....over the next few weeks
just wondering if there are any decent trainers in the Birmingham area that you guys recommend???
i was going to go with Get Licensed as they seem pretty good and the prices are fair
also, whats being a CCTV control room operator like???
just thought i'd ask before i search the forum and check the older posts.
i'm guessing it's pretty boring most of the time but from the jobs i have seen advertised, the pay is slightly better then the usual retail guarding roles so i'm willing to put up with being bored

With no Landon Donovan, no Robbie Keane and no Omar Gonzalez, Bruce Arena's Los Angeles Galaxy suffered their first defeat at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in five years. The Galaxy fell, 2-0, to Oscar Pareja's Colorado Rapids to fall to 10-9-3 (33 points) and sink further down the MLS Western Conference standings.
Here are six things we learned from Saturday afternoon's tilt in Commerce City, Colo.
1. A slow first 15 minutes
Early on in the first half, both teams tried to find their footing. It took the fourth minute for Los Angeles to earn their first break of the contest, when Hector Jimenez won a free kick. Jose Villareal didn't get a good delivery on the ensuing set piece. Hendry Thomas got cautioned in the ninth minute for a challenge on Juninho.
Both sides were engaged in a ball possession battle that Los Angeles were winning. Jimenez fancied his chances in the 15th minute but his shot went high.
2. A little controversy to spice things up
Despite the Jimenez miss, Los Angeles continued to win the ball possession battle as the match neared the midway point of the first half. Chris Klute tried a cross in the 21st minute but his delivery was collected by Carlo Cudicini. Juninho's first attempt on goal in the 22nd minute just missed wide left.
With Jose Villareal getting a knock that same minute, Colorado looked to take advantage of the Galaxy losing their scoring punch. But LA continued to fire away, with Marcelo Sarvas trying one in the 27th minute. Colorado's next attempt a minute later was collected. In one of the more bizarre events, Juninho was carded in the 29th minute for simulation.
3. Colorado earn the breakthrough
Pablo Mastroeni was also given a yellow for dissent regarding the call in the 31st minute. Edson Buddle nearly scored on his former team in the 33rd minute of play but his shot just sailed over the crossbar. In the 34th minute, Nick LaBrocca's next shot hit the crossbar. That would be his last attempt of goal before Atiba Harris went into the fray, since LaBrocca was suffering from groin issues.
Sarvas tried a shot in the 39th minute, but that didn't test Rapids netminder Clint Irwin as it sailed wide left. DeShorn Brown nearly got through but Cudicini was there to make the stop. Set pieces have been an issue for the Galaxy, and Thomas's header was proof of Los Angeles's issues with set piece defending in the 41st minute.
Depth issues in defense have also been a problem for the Galaxy, and Tommy Meyer earned a knock in the 45th minute. Dillon Powers almost made it 2-0 Rapids. Todd Dunivant nearly equalized in the first minute of first half injury time, but Clint Irwin denied his chance. With that, the first half ended with Colorado up 1-0.

4. The kid's all right-Dillon Powers, that is
Well, that didn't take long. In the 47th minute, Powers broke through for his fourth goal of the season. A.J. DeLaGarza was left on an island all alone, having to mark Edson Buddle. That allowed Powers, a rookie to break through and win an easy 1-v-1 with Cudicini.
Sean Franklin tried a chance in the 51st minute but his shot was collected by Irwin, who had a quiet day. Another chance from Franklin was well off the Mark. Jimenez couldn't reel in a corner in the 55th minute.
5. Closing time for Colorado
With Colorado up 2-0, the onus for the Rapids was to preserve and build on their advantage. It was the home side that would go on to win the ball possession battle, but what of the rest of the match? Thomas nearly earned his brace in the 67th minute but just missed wide right. Laurent Courtois's first volley in the 68th minute was collected by Irwin.
Buddle had plenty of space to finish a delivery from Marvell Wynne, and should have headed in his chance in the 69th minute.
6. Gyasi Zardes falls just short
A Juninho corner in the 76th minute was collected by Irwin. Atiba Harris couldn't ice the game in the 78th minute of play due to traffic. Klute had a teasing cross in the 84th minute but couldn't find anyone in burgundy to connect the ball to. Buddle's best chance in the 86th minute hit the side netting.
Gyasi Zardes's next big opportunity came in the 88th minute of play but that hit the top netting. Another chance in the 89th minute hit the side netting. Had Zardes finished those opportunities, Los Angeles would be on even terms. Juninho's last set piece opportunity in the 92nd minute hit the top netting.

On a good, fast network it is almost impossible to get the wrong
result. This makes trouble shooting the issue a problem. When you
can't recreate it, did you fix the issue, or did the network
congestion just get better.
But on a network that is dropping packets or delivering them out of
order it is a different story. Depending on how bad the network is you
can get a wrong result anywhere from 1 in 10 to 1 in 5 packets. The
McDonald's network was really bad this morning.

This is what RFC 793 says starting on page 64:
If the state is LISTEN then
second check for an ACK
Any acknowledgment is bad if it arrives on a connection still in
the LISTEN state. An acceptable reset segment should be formed
for any arriving ACK-bearing segment. The RST should be
formatted as follows:
third check for a SYN
If the SYN bit is set, check the security. If the
security/compartment on the incoming segment does not exactly
match the security/compartment in the TCB then send a reset and
If the SEG.PRC is greater than the TCB.PRC then if allowed by
the user and the system set TCB.PRC<-SEG.PRC, if not allowed
send a reset and return.
If the SEG.PRC is less than the TCB.PRC then continue.
Set RCV.NXT to SEG.SEQ+1, IRS is set to SEG.SEQ and any other
control or text should be queued for processing later. ISS
should be selected and a SYN segment sent of the form:
SND.NXT is set to ISS+1 and SND.UNA to ISS. The connection
state should be changed to SYN-RECEIVED. Note that any other
incoming control or data (combined with SYN) will be processed
in the SYN-RECEIVED state, but processing of SYN and ACK should
not be repeated. If the listen was not fully specified (i.e.,
the foreign socket was not fully specified), then the
unspecified fields should be filled in now.
If a syn comes in on a listen port, then it is supposed to send a
syn-ack back.
If an ack comes in on a listen port, then it is supposed to send rst back.
I believe that is happening is that the two packets we send to port
80, an ACK and a SYN are returning in different orders depending on
network quality/congestion. If the packets get there in SYN - ACK
order then that could really confuse the host on the other side,
especially considering how the sequence numbers are not properly
aligned for a syn, syn-ack, ack handshake.
I am noticing that we never get the receive for all three packets. and
if we get more than just the SA packet back then we think the
connection is closed.
How can I match up the returning packet to the packet that was sent?
I'm not seeing a clear way to differentiate between an RST on the A
packet and the one on the SYN packet.
The strange thing is that the seq number in the RST packet from port
80 on the other host is always equal to the sequence number in the
segment we sent to port 443. So I am really confused about which
segment this RST belongs to.
I am thinking that if I send all three packets from different ports
then I would know for sure which returning packet belonged to which
sent packet, is that a practical solution? Is there a command line
option to do that? Do we match the packets by the ACK (number - 1)?
If I put the ack number in the --packet-trace output could this help
us line the acks up to the sends better?
Greetings All,
I was able to stop the bug from happening by incrementing the port of
the first ack in massping().
Evidently this earlier ack is sometimes triggering a reset to be sent
which we were seeing as the response to the later packet.
I traced back to where we set the default ports inside
validate_scan_lists() and instead of setting them to 443 and 80 for
the syn and ack host detection packets I set them to random values
above 32,000. Ports in these higher ranges are often allowed to
receive packets when port 80 or 443 are heavily guarded by firewall
and packet filter rules.
By randomizing these host detection ports each time we scan, we could
make nmap less predictable and harder to spot.
An alternative is to change port 80 to a random higher value if we are
tcp scanning for port 80 later. Unfortunately this information is not
available to validate_scan_lists at the time port 80 and port 443 are
being added to the ping syn and ping ack lists.

Book: A Whole New Mind- Why Right-Brainers Will Rule The Future
Author: Daniel Pink
Review by: Suhani N Mehta
Summary of the book:
The book starts off with a story of the author in a hospital describing some brain tests being done on him. It then moves on to a long explanation of concepts on neuroscience- how the brain is divided into 2 parts: left and right, as we all know, and how each part functions separately. The author then explains in detail the role of each of these parts in our day to day functioning. He then proposes his theory that the world is now moving towards R-directed thinking (or the Right-brained thinking).
He begins his explanation for his proposed theory in the chapter "Asia, Automation and Abundance" in which he reasons that an organization must think the following 3 points before designing a new process or product:
1. Can someone make it cheaper?
2. Can a computer do it faster?
3. Is there a demand for it in this age of abundance?
The following chapters describe the 6 aptitudes which are required for R-directed thinking that has now become essential to acquire. The 6 aptitudes are: Design, Story, Symphony, Empathy, Play and Meaning. The words in themselves are pretty self explanatory. He then ends the book with a summary similar to what I wrote above.
My review:
Before I started to read the book, the subtitle that reads "Why right-brainers will rule the future" made a mental image in me of how the book would be. I imagined that the author would begin with a few current scenarios that display the shift of the world towards right-sided thinking, followed by a list of statistical/numerical data followed by life stories of people who accomplished success by such thinking, and he would then conclude from this data that the future, in fact, belongs to right-brainers.
Against my expectations, the book is more of a theory proposed by the author followed by a description of the characteristics of the right-brained people. The author has structured the book in a reverse manner- he first proposes his theory and then gives examples. Unfortunately, the examples are not compelling enough for me to agree with his theory. I feel his examples are incomplete; the case studies portray usage of R-directed thinking but do not portray any long term accomplishments achieved due to such thinking. For example, he mentions Bob Lutz, hired by General Motors, who when asked to compare his current job with predecessors replied,
It's more right brain. . . . I see us being in the art business. Art, entertainment and mobile sculpture, which, coincidentally, also happens to provide transportation.
The author does not state any growth statistics of the company or any other indirect advantages the company received after adopting such philosophy. Another example the author gives is of a student of CHAD (Charter High School for Architecture and Design) who has designed a poster, does an internship and has a dream or constructing "two cool towers". There is a mention neither of what kind of poster or internship he has done nor of his dream becoming reality. I certainly cannot perceive such examples as "evidences" that may serve to corroborate author's theory. The author could have rather given examples of people who have already accomplished something a left-brainer would not have under ordinary circumstances.
Having expressed my disagreement with the author, I also cannot say that his theory is completely untrue. I believe that everyone today has, to some extent, an intuition that what the author is saying is partially correct. Though there are yet no firm grounds on which we can base this theory, in situations like these your gut feeling overpowers your logic. Hence, I do agree with the author, but with skepticism due to unavailability of proven facts.
To appease my concerns to some extent, the author does mention in a few places that even though right-brainers will rule, left-brain reasoning is still required. Why? What would or should the balance between left- and right- sided thinking be? How does one make a transition from left- to right- sided thinking or vice versa and ensure an appropriate balance? These questions remain unanswered.
Nevertheless, since R-directed reasoning still seems important, the 6 principles ought to be acquired. I believe that these do matter a great amount when it comes to a design that touches not just people's utility needs but also their emotions. It tells us how to interact with the consumers using characteristics as simple but equally difficult as story-telling. However, more than being about design, I feel, these are about the Art of Living, i.e., principles that could be applied to life in general including our personal relationships, our daily interactions with people, our routine choices and decisions etc. But the book fails to explain the integration between the 6 characteristics of R-directed thinking, and how they can be combined and applied. So the 6 principles become 6 random spots without any relationship among them. This is the greatest downside of the book.
Hence, the book in itself is not the whole and sole guide on these characteristics. One must combine the information of the book with various other sources to have a complete understanding of how to achieve R-directed thinking.
The 6 principles can still be used in a small scale to influence people and their decision making process, but the book doesn't provide enough data such that we may apply the principles in large scale businesses. In conclusion, read the book to get a general idea of what R-directed thinking is all about and then hunt for more information to dig deeper. BUT do all this only if you believe that the future does belong to right-brainers.

A Chinese investment company won approval for a second time Friday to buy 16 dairy farms in New Zealand after a court challenge forced the country's government to review its original decision in favor of the purchase.
Shanghai Pengxin was given the green light to buy the farms for around $163 million (U.S) after officials imposed strict conditions relating to investment in the land and protection of sensitive sites.
New Zealand is the only Western nation to have a free-trade agreement with China, its second-biggest export customer behind Australia.
Chinese firms already have significant holdings in New Zealand, but the sale of rural and coastal land to foreign interests is a sensitive issue in a country where agriculture dominates the economy. New Zealand is the world's largest exporter of dairy goods.
"The combined effect of the benefits being delivered to New Zealand as a result of this transaction is substantial," Associate Finance Minister Jonathan Coleman said in a statement.
Shanghai Pengxin had said opposition to its purchase of the farms was partly motivated by anti-Chinese sentiment, and had warned that a refusal would likely deter other foreign investors.
It has promised to upgrade the farms, train New Zealanders to work on them, invest in a New Zealand processing plant and provide money to market the products in China.
Critics of the sale have questioned what expertise the Chinese group has in farming in New Zealand, where agriculture accounts for around half of the economic output.

Frequency 55 Aspheric Reviews
Very Comfortable
The cooper vision frequency 55 aspheric contacts are very comfortable. I wear about 8 hours a day and love them.
Cooper Vision Frequency 55 Aspheric are awesome!
I have a bit of an astigmatism in both of my eyes but not enough to need a Toric contact lens. Whenever I wear normal contact lenses there is always something a bit off with my sight. I talk to my doc about this and he recommended an aspheric contact lens. I tried out a few and the most comfortable for me was the Cooper Vision Frequency 55 Aspheric contact lens. It was thinner than the other lenses and I think that made it more comfortable for me. My sight was fixed too so I am very happy with the Frequency 55 Aspheric contacts.
Frequency 55 Aspheric contacts are amazing
I have only been wearing coopervision frequency 55 aspheric contact lenses for about two months, they are meant to be monthly lenses and so far they are amazing. I love my Frequency Aspheric contacts.

3 Ways To Forget About Your Ex Girlfriend
Throw Yourself into your Career
A cliche, I know, but it's surprisingly effective. There's no time like being single to forget about your ex girlfriend and really put forth your best effort in your job. You can stay late at the office, advancing your career, and not have to worry about being accused of sleeping around when you get home late.
Being single is also the best time to really realize what you want to do with your life. You don't have to worry about making career changes that affect your relationship, and can be free to switch jobs or even move without worrying about repercussions with a significant other.
Of course, if you move, it will be more difficult to "accidentally" bump into your ex girlfriend at Starbucks, but that's a sacrifice you may have to make.
Take A Trip Away From Where Your Ex Girlfriend Lives
A vacation is a great way how to get over your ex girlfriend. Experiencing a new place and meeting new people is sure to make you forget about her, and you don't have to worry about choosing a place she'll like; your trip can be all about you.
Choose a place you've never been before, take some time off from work, and just enjoy relaxation in a new area. You'll get over your ex girlfriend in no time, once you're on a nude beach. If the young beach bunnies don't push your ex girlfriend out of your mind, the overweight grandpas sure will.
Get a Makeover
Just don't use the term 'makeover' when you're talking to your guy friends. But seriously. Join a gym or start running around your neighborhood to get in shape. Get ripped and muscular. Go shopping and spice up your wardrobe with a couple new pieces to show off your new body.
Take a bus to a part of town you won't see anyone you know and get a decent haircut for once. It really doesn't matter what you do, just update your look to something newer and fresher; make little improvements to yourself that make you feel better about your appearance. Being confident is a surefire way how to get over your ex girlfriend.
Breakups hurt, and forgeting your ex girlfriend is hard, but feeling great about yourself and a new look means you'll be ready to take on the world, or at least walk leave the house without gin on your breath. Your ex girlfriend will regret letting you go, but you've moved on already.

Since returning to the Red Sox, Carl Crawford has started to resemble the same baseball player that tormented the Red Sox for so many years when he wore a Tampa Bay jersey. Nothing was more reflective of that than Sunday afternoon's performance by Crawford that saw the speedster collect three doubles and three RBI in a romp of the Indians.
But Crawford was pulled from the game in the fifth inning with a flare up in his wrist, the same one that was surgically repaired back in January. Crawford told reporters after the game that he has been playing with some discomfort and pain in his left wrist since his return and he claims some days are worse than others.
Manager Bobby Valentine stressed to the media that the injury was minor and that both he and Carl wanted to keep it at the minor level, hence the decision to pull him from the game.
Crawford revealed that he had an injection to alleviate the pain in his wrist back in March when he tried to speed up the recovery process, only to further aggravate the injury. Now, Crawford is deciding whether to have another injection that should allow him to continue to play this season.
"It's been five months since I had the shot, so it's probably just time for another one," he said. "Had the game been close, I definitely would have stayed in the game. I didn't really think it was too much of a big deal." – courtesy of NESN.
On the season, Crawford has a slash line of .258/.287/.461/.748 with 3 home runs and 13 RBI. While those numbers are a far cry from his career average's, we are seeing Crawford more comfortable at the plate, something that is imperative if the Sox have any chance at the postseason.
Crawford has been the topic of criticism during his time in Boston, failing to meet the expectations that led to his 7-year deal worth $142 million. Another trip to the DL would only fuel that fire of criticism and nay sayers, and considering the Red Sox are a better team with CC in the lineup lately, let's hope the injection is all he needs at this point.

Clinicians should be aware that even if patients with early psychosis begin treatment with generous insurance benefits, that
coverage may not last.
Loss of insurance by people experiencing early psychosis is a frequent occurrence requiring awareness and monitoring by clinicians
and staff in community mental health centers.
Of 31 patients enrolled in a community program for early psychosis treatment who had public or private insurance at baseline,
just 14 maintained continuous coverage for a full year, according to a report in the August Psychiatric Services.
"Maintaining continuous health insurance coverage may be difficult for people with early psychosis," study author Tyler Dodds,
M.D., told Psychiatric News. "Health care reform will hopefully improve the situation, but it is unclear to what extent. Investigators should continue
to track insurance trajectory because lack of insurance is an important modifiable barrier to treatment."
At the time of the study, Dodds was a student at Yale University School of Medicine. He is now a psychiatry resident at the
Harvard Longwood Psychiatry Residency Training Program.
In the study, Dodds and colleagues assessed insurance status for 82 individuals enrolled in the Specialized Treatment Early
in Psychosis (STEP) program at the Connecticut Mental Health Center. Insurance status was collected at baseline, six months,
and 12 months using a combination of self-reports, clinical chart reviews, clinician reports, and a database maintained by
the Connecticut Department of Social Services.
Thirty-four participants did not know whether they had health insurance or did not appear for follow-up assessments at six
and 12 months. Among the remaining 48 participants, at baseline 18 had private insurance and 13 had public insurance (the
rest were uninsured).
By the 12-month assessment, 13 of the privately insured patients and five of the publicly insured patients had lost coverage;
participants' clinicians attributed this loss of public insurance primarily to aging out of eligibility or failing to renew
Dodds and colleagues noted in their report that the actual frequency of uninterrupted coverage may have been even lower than
the data suggest. By assessing insurance status at discrete time points, they said, they may have missed gaps in coverage
between assessments. In addition, participants were presumed to have maintained insurance coverage unless loss of coverage
was clearly documented, even if follow-up data were incomplete.
The researchers also said that incarceration may play a role in loss of insurance coverage. Among the cohort, nine participants
were incarcerated during the first year of follow-up. Five had private insurance at baseline, and all of them had lost it
by the six- or 12-month follow-up. The only incarcerated participant with public insurance coverage at baseline maintained
it through the 12-month follow-up.
"Community mental health centers may be able to help reduce the disruption in treatment by allowing patients with private
insurance to receive their treatment in the public sector," Dodds told Psychiatric News. "And clinicians should be aware that even if patients begin treatment with generous prescription drug benefits, that level
of coverage may not endure."
In an editorial in the same issue of Psychiatric Services, Marvin Swartz, M.D., cited the troubling data about longitudinal insurance status found by Dodds and colleagues.
"Will expanded federal eligibility for Medicaid in 2014 remedy these worrisome coverage gaps?" Swartz wondered. "Possibly
for those within 133 percent of the federal poverty level, but under health care reform newly eligible consumers are guaranteed
mental health coverage equivalent to only basic health plans, not the array of optional Medicaid services that have massively
raised the bar for recovery-oriented community-based care. Protecting Medicaid and non-Medicaid state mental health funding
will require enormous vigilance and advocacy."
"Who Is Paying the Price? Loss of Health Insurance Coverage Early in Psychosis" is posted at <http://ps.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/62/8/878>. Swartz's "Storm Clouds Over the Public Mental Health Safety Net" is posted at <http://ps.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/62/8/821>.

Last night might have been an utter low for the New York Knickerbockers. Haha, yup they get a full name scolding like your mom used to do. Got shellacked by the Lakers by 31, in another horrific TNT Overtime fail. It's funny that the Lakers were involved in another redonkulous blowout this month: One because the first was also on TNT OT when the Clippers beat them by, I dunno a million (?), and second because I had the following remarks on Xavier Henry, whom I call Wheels, three-ish week ago after that Clips blowout: "I dunno, I just have a weird feeling he is going to be fantasy-relevant even in shallower leagues in a few weeks because D'Antoni likes him. And why not give him minutes again on this team?" And that's me quoting me! It's been a little up-and-down, and Wheels is a bit of a ThrANOF, but 8-11 (3-4 3PTM 3-5 FT) 22/3/0/2/1 last night. Only 23 minutes (and oddly enough 23:20 exactly in the past two games), but mid-20 minutes seems about right the rest of the way. He can easily score mid-teens, get a couple swipes, and nab a trey for you. Jodie Meeks-lite, if you will. I think even in 12-teamers he's worth a look right now for the remainder of the week with three games left on the slate that all are pretty saucy (@MIL, @MIN, PHX). And another 4-gamer next week with good matchups. I just picked him up myself as I hope to slip by the Slippery Squirrels in my RCL playoffs. Need more points and only up one in steals. Go JB HUMAN! Here's what else I saw last night in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Will Barton
Wow, what a wild night across the NBA-osphere. Tons of injuries, lots of scrubs getting some burn, if I didn't know better, I woulda though it was late March. But no! I guess we can start with that other JB as Jerryd Bayless moved into the starting line-up and lit up the Hawks for a season-high 29 Pts. Shooting 12-21, it was pretty ThrAGNOFfy for 29/2/2/1/0 with 5 treys. Why you avoid the 3-point specialists on draft day! Who knows what preppy-boy Brad Stevens is going to do next, and while getting the Pacers on Saturday isn't a great matchup, home games vs. GS, BKN, then DET next week could be a 10 3PTM week for JB. And while he's not as multi-cat as the real JB over here, we can all grab the band if we need some scoring. I'll wear a headband as well for the moral support! Here's what else went down on a very busy night of injuries and surprise games in the NBA:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Whewwww-eeee! What a fun draft. A good four-and-a-half hours after the draft start time I had picked my 17th player, and I think I really like my team. But with a lot of picks, I did feel a bit like Jerry Lundegaard in Fargo trying to defend them; "it's a real good deal this one, real good!" Thanks again for filling out the league loyal Razzball Nation, and again thanks to our friends at RotoGold.com and the TDBSportsNetwork (which you can catch me on their "The Double Bonus" Show throughout the season and from last Wednesday) for helping class up the joint.
So if you missed the post launching the league, the Razzball Elite Dynasty League had our inaugural draft last night, an all-out brawl of an Auction draft with some really interesting bidding wars. Looking at you Ben from RotoGold and you pumping up Giannis Antetokounmpo for $15 late! The league is 20 teams, 12 starters (two of every position and two UTIL) and five bench spots. Using my abacus over here, that's 340 players owned. Neeedless to say, things got really interesting once we were in the bottom end of starters. There is no inflation, we voted on a true Dynasty application, with lifetime contracts. Free agent pickups all must be done with your $100 yearly FAAB, and those players can be kept on a $1 lifetime contract. So FAAB bidding will be a critical element through the season.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Duh-duh-duh-duhhhh. Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh! Mandatory to listen to this while reading.
It's the final day of the regular season! If you're reading you're probably in your league championship or you're awesome and keeping up with fantasy for next season. I'll be starting to do some offseason work next week, and probably start formulating the Razzball rankings for the 2013-2014 season.
But for those of you in your championships, it's the final countdown. One last day of a full roster to either snag that roto title or beat that douche who always changes his league smack or motto to something he finds funny about how good one of his players did. We get it, "Luis Scola'd your nuts last night." Time to put him away.
Here's some story lines to keep in mind and players out there to consider with a little recap of last night sprinkled in:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Against the terrible Bobcats and with everyone on the Knicks benched, Chris Copeland just went off. He's always been a scorer, but made the Bobcats wish they had this guy starting all year instead of playing inconsistent minutes for the Knickerbockers. Copeland went 12-25 (4-8 3PTM) for 32 Pts 7 Rebs 2 Asts and 1 Stl. He played all but 1 minute of this game with all your New York regulars sitting this one out. I think he's a must start in Wednesday's finale.
The end of the NBA regular season is always rife with crazy games like this. So I'm going to try and hit on all the guys that can make an impact for you tonight as streamers and Wednesday:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Tobias Harris is going to be immortalized in my fantasy career as the guy who got me through some injuries and LeBron benchings to win titles in almost every league in 2013. I was on this guy at the trade deadline and continue to ride him into the sunset with a twinkle in my eye.
With LeBron yet again benched like I had a feeling he would be, Harris was a monster against his former Bucks going 13-20 (3-4 3PTM) 30 Pts 19 Rebs and 5 Asts. Harris hit a monster 3 with 1.9 seconds left to send it into OT and put the Magic on his back. That kinda sounds like a sex move. There's something kinda like that called a Houdini, but I'll let our friends at urban dictionary or something explain that one.
Here's what else went down last night across the NBA:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Fantasy Championship! Some leagues have just wrapped up their finals and hopefully you've got a nice Shiva for your mantleplace. But in other leagues the championship has just begun or it's the last week-and-a-half for roto.
With a lot of big name players (ahem! Dwyane Wade ahem!) not getting on the court, there's going to be a ton of new fringe guys getting minutes. It's been since Saturday since we've had a round-up, so let's look at the weekend's action (no games yesterday with the NCAA final):Please, blog, may I have some more?
Jonas Valanciunas has a fractured metacarpal on the ring finger of his right hand, which means he can't be married, I think. It will also keep him out for a few weeks and gives you a reason to drop him in all but deep leagues and keeper formats.Please, blog, may I have some more?
