Paranoid Penguin - Security Features in SUSE 10.0
Over the years, we've seen more and better security features incorporated into our favorite Linux distributions. Distribution-specific security awareness manifests itself in many ways, including:
Availability of security-enhancing applications.
"Hardening" functionality in setup/installation scripts.
The way patches are handled.
Default settings of network applications.
This month, I begin a series of three articles on distribution-specific security in SUSE Linux, Debian GNU/Linux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. These are the three distributions with which I've had the most experience, and they are arguably the three most popular. (But as with anything, if you want to contribute an article about your own favorite distribution, go for it! See our author's guide at www.linuxjournal.com/xstatic/author/authguide.)
I'll start with SUSE 10.0. SUSE is a general-purpose, commercially produced Linux distribution developed for Intel 32- and 64-bit platforms. Originally based in Germany and still primarily developed there, SUSE is now owned by Novell. There are a number of different SUSE products, including SUSE Linux, a "personal" version available from numerous retail outlets; SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, an "enterprise-grade" version available directly from Novell; and OpenSUSE, which is essentially the same as SUSE Linux but without installation media (it's installable only over the Internet), printed manuals or installation support.
The basis of this article is SUSE Linux 10.0, that is, the commercial "personal use" version. Everything I say here should be equally applicable to OpenLinux 10.0, and mostly relevant to the Enterprise versions of SUSE. Presumably, the Enterprise versions include additional security-related packages and features.
System security begins with installation. This is your first opportunity to make crucial decisions concerning what role the system will play, which software the system will run and how the system will be configured. Therefore, it's useful to begin our discussion of SUSE security with the installation process.
All versions of SUSE use YaST (Yet Another Setup Tool) both for initial system installation and for ongoing system administration. Over the years, YaST has evolved from a simple RPM front end to a modular, comprehensive administration tool that can be used to configure not only low-level system software but also complex server applications such as Apache and Postfix.
We'll talk more about YaST shortly. Your immediate problem during initial OS installation, however, is deciding which software packages to install. And if you're security-focused, this is a happy problem. SUSE Linux 10.0 offers a wide variety of security applications from which to choose.
In my view, these applications fall into two categories: system security applications and security-scanning applications. The former include both general-purpose applications with strong security features—Postfix springs instantly to mind—and applications whose sole purpose is providing security controls to other applications or to the underlying operating system, of which tcpwrappers is a classic example. Table 1 lists the packages in SUSE Linux 10.0 that enhance system security.
Table 1. Some Security-Enhancing Packages in SUSE Linux 10.0
Package Name | Description |
aide, fam | File integrity checkers, both similar to Tripwire. |
bind-chrootenv | Automatically creates a chroot environment in which to run BIND (the DNS daemon) more securely. |
clamav, antivir | Antivirus packages—clamav is completely free, but antivir is commercial (free for personal use). |
cracklib | Library and utilities to prevent users from choosing easily guessed passwords. |
gpg, gpg2, gpa | GNU Privacy Guard (gpg), a versatile and ubiquitous e-mail- and file-encryption utility. |
ipsectools, openswan | Tools for building IPsec-based virtual private networks. |
openldap, freeradius | Open-source authentication daemons. |
proxy-suite | An FTP security proxy developed by SUSE. |
seccheck | SUSE-customized cron scripts that perform various security checks against logs, system state and so on, and send e-mail reports to you. |
subdomain-utils, subdomain-profiles, mod-change-hat and so on | AppArmor, a mandatory access control (MAC) system that restricts the behavior of specific binaries. SUSE uses this instead of SELinux, which it closely resembles. |
squid, SquidGuard | Squid is a popular HTTP/HTTPS proxy. SquidGuard adds access controls and other security features. |
SUSEfirewall | SUSE's handy front end for Linux's netfilter/iptables. |
syslog-ng | Advanced system logger, much more powerful than syslogd. syslog-ng is SUSE's default logger. |
tinyca2 | Front end to OpenSSL for managing Certificate Authorities. |
yast2-firewall | Firewall functionality. |
vsftpd | The Very Secure FTP Daemon. |
xen, FAUmachine, uml-utilities, bochs | The Xen, FAUmachine, User Mode Linux and BOCHS virtual machine environments. |
Actually, the lengthy list of packages in Table 1 represents only particular favorites of mine and SUSE-specific selections. SUSE includes many, many more system security tools, including tcpd (tcpwrappers), openssl, chkrootkit, sudo and wipe. You can view the full list of packages included in SUSE Linux 10.0 at www.novell.com/products/linuxpackages/professional/index_all.html.
Besides securing the system on which you install SUSE, you may be interested in using a SUSE system to validate the security of other systems or of entire networks. SUSE is a good choice for this. Table 2 shows some SUSE Linux 10.0 packages that can be used for security scanning. Note that you should never install these packages (except perhaps Snort) on any Internet-connected server. Each is of much greater use to an attacker than it is to you in that context. Scanning software should be performed from systems that are normally kept out of harm's way.
Table 2. Security Scanners in SUSE Linux 10.0
Package Name | Description |
ethereal, tcpdump | Excellent packet sniffers. |
fping | Flood ping (multiple-target ping). |
john | John the Ripper, a password-cracking tool (legitimately used for identifying weak passwords). |
kismet | Wireless LAN sniffer. |
nessus-core, nessus-libraries | The Nessus general-purpose security scanner. |
nmap | Undisputed king of port scanners. |
snort | Outstanding packet sniffer, packet logger and intrusion detection system. |
If you're new to SUSE, you should be aware that by default, YaST uses a Selections filter (view) for selecting packages, in which only a small subset of all available packages is offered to you. If you don't see something you need in this view, for example, nessus-core, use the Package Groups filter to see a more complete set of categories. If you want to see a single list of all packages in alphabetical order, simply set the filter to Package Groups and click on the group zzz All (Figure 1).
You also can set the filter to Search to search for packages by name or keyword.
After you've selected and installed all software packages, YaST allows you to set the root password and create the first (nonroot) user account. By default, SUSE uses Blowfish for password encryption, and YaST checks the password you type for complexity. (Too-simple a password can be easily guessed or brute-force cracked by an attacker.)
You're also given the opportunity to enable local firewall scripts (enabled by default), and the SSH and VNC remote-shell daemons (both disabled by default). Note that of the latter two, SSH is the best choice for administering bastion hosts (hardened Internet servers)--among other reasons, you shouldn't be using the X Window System on bastion hosts unless you've got a very specific, very compelling reason. YaST, it should be noted, runs perfectly well in text (ncurses) mode, with exactly the same modules and options as the X version. Also, tightvnc, the version of the VNC remote-desktop tool shipped with SUSE, doesn't encrypt session data, only authentication data.
Note also that at installation time, you aren't given the opportunity to customize your local firewall settings. Initially, a default script is used that provides a simple "allow all outbound transactions, allow nothing inbound that wasn't initiated locally" policy. In other words, the default SUSEfirewall script is perfectly appropriate for most desktop systems, but it is inadequate for server use. You can change this later on by running YaST's Firewall module.
YaST then lets you choose from the following methods for authenticating nonroot users:
local /etc/passwd file (default).
Samba (Windows NT Domains).
Active Directory authentication is also supported in SUSE Linux 10.0, via Kerberos.
Once you've selected an authentication method, you can create your first nonroot user account. Be sure to leave Automatic Logon disabled unless your system has very low security requirements indeed—enabling this causes the machine to log in your nonroot user automatically at boot time. (About the only situation in which this is a good idea, I think, is for kiosk-type systems!)
And that's it—SUSE installation is now finished! Your job as a security-conscious system administrator, however, is not.

Today I went to my stroller fit class
I grocery shopped
I cleaned the girls room and the bathroom
Did the dishes
Took ds to dance
Went to my doc appt
I feel good about today esp since I did must if it with a 7 month old attached to my hip. This might not seem like a lot to some people but I haven't been able to do much since ds was born, I hope I can keep his up
sometimes it feels good write everything down - I do that sometimes and look back and be proud of what was accomplished that day
I found a to-do list app for my phone. Every night, I add everything I need to do the next day. It doesn't matter how small the task, I add it. (clean bathroom, take trashcan to the street, clean out my emails, etc....) I feel so productive as I check things off the list.
That is horrible. What is going on?
Quoting mommybug77:
Good job. My schedule is shot to hell. I had to walk oldest to school since she is being stalked with an attempted abduction. Then I took younger ones to school. Did some dishes, am nursing the baby. Have to pick up 1 kid at noon. Have a school meeting at 4 and still manage dinner after that.

With global prices of commodities still on a downslide, and the proverbial gold at the end of the rainbow still way out of sight, global mining giant Rio Tinto has announced it will reduce unnecessary costs to generate a $5 billion savings by the end of 2014.
"We are taking further tough action to roll back the unsustainable cost increases of the past few years and are maintaining a relentless focus on improving productivity," Tom Albanese, Rio chief, said in a statement to the Australian stock exchange.
Mr Albanese likewise said the company will cut budget allotted for exploration and evaluation projects by $1 billion over the remainder of 2012 and 2013.
"We are investing in the highest returning opportunities, delivering major projects on time and are taking advantage of the inbuilt flexibility in our phased investment programmes," he added.
"We have the ability to respond to changing market conditions and I am confident we have the right strategy to maximise shareholder value in the long term."
Rio Tinto, along with other mining giants such as BHP Billiton Ltd., has been establishing coping mechanisms in light of the falling commodities market prices. The company has delayed a number of investment decisions, halted or closed a number of mines as well as reduced its global manpower.
"Those two businesses are potentially loss-making where commodity prices currently are, which is clearly not sustainable," Prasad Patkar said in Bloomberg News. "Banking on a sharp recovery would be foolish at this stage so the only thing managements can do is to aggressively take costs out."
Analysts expect Rio will diminish capital expenditure spending in 2013 to $14 billion, which is a number of billion dollars below this year's spending.
"There's no doubt any marginal tonnes they can produce from the Pilbara without a capex increase is a good thing," portfolio manager Tim Barker said in Reuters News.
"Ten, 11 years of high commodity prices and focus exclusively on getting the product out irrespective of what the cost was, means that there should be plenty of opportunity to tighten the belt," Mr Patkar said. "Mine closures would absolutely be on the agenda. BHP has already done it with a couple of their coal mines."

11/9/2009 Pennsylvania Resurrects Plan to Toll Interstate 80 FreewayPennsylvania re-files application to add tolls to the Interstate 80 freeway to generate $473 million in revenue. Pennsylvania Governor Edward G. Rendell (D) has not given up on his dream of adding toll booths on Interstate 80, a freeway that serves as a vital commercial link between New York and Chicago. On October 30, state officials filed an official memorandum to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) reopening the application for permission to toll the 311 mile route in order to help balance the state's budget. "Without tolls on I-80, state lawmakers and the administration would have to plug a $473 million gap in next year's budget, and that gap will steadily widen," Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission Chief Executive Joe Brimmeier said in a statement. In July 2008, the FHWA explained that the governor's plan did not appear to meet the requirements of federal law for conversion of a federal interstate into a toll road. The state's new filing with federal transportation officials included further details on the proposal, such as planned locations for electronic toll booths and an extensive financial analysis. The deal, authorized at the state level by Act 44 of the Pennsylvania General Assembly, faces an uncertain future as a number of key political players remain unconvinced that the Turnpike Commission should expand its reach to previously untolled roads. "This is the same Turnpike Commission that has been the backdrop for several scandals and a slew of indictments," US Representative Glenn 'GT' Thompson (R-Howard) explained in a statement. "Act 44 is a cover-up of years of mismanagement of taxpayer funds and the perpetuation of an antiquated and corrupt Turnpike Commission. This is not fair to the taxpayers in Pennsylvania -- not just along the I-80 corridor, but in the commonwealth as a whole." An opinion poll taken last year found that 63 percent of voters agreed with Thompson's assessment. A coalition of business groups, the Alliance to Stop I-80 Tolling, formed to coordinate efforts to block the tolling plan. "There are simply better options that will generate more money with less hardship," coalition co-chairman Vince Matteo said in a statement. "The bottom line is that once gantries are up on I-80, local businesses and communities will be crippled and a harsh inflationary rise will be felt throughout the entire commonwealth economy." A Grove City College study calculated last month that a 10 cent gas tax increase would raise $600 million at a cost of just 0.5 cents per mile for an average automobile -- far cheaper than the per-mile rate of a toll road that requires expensive overhead to operate (view study). |

Quick question: I know it is still on the PRS website, but is the Mira being discontinued? Most of the online retailers don't have any in stock. Are they just running short on the inventory? Great guitar, I hope it is still in the core lineup.

Quick question: I know it is still on the PRS website, but is the Mira being discontinued? Most of the online retailers don't have any in stock. Are they just running short on the inventory? Great guitar, I hope it is still in the core lineup.
It is not being discontinued :)
PRS Europe posted on their Facebook page earlier this year that the Starla was not going to be in next year's catalogue... I think the post was deleted though. Not sure if because untrue or if PRS doesn't want that info getting out until it's time.
Not sure about the Mira though, have heard nothing...
Just seems odd that the big stores don't have these in stock.
I was sad to see the maple top go. I absolutely love my hog, with 57/08s. It is a total classic rock machine. Hope they stay in the lineup.
I have been waiting on the right one come up for ages to snag one. I want birds!
Snagged one with moons a while ago and thru a Dragon I in the bridge, MADE MY MIRA a MONSTER!!!
It seems as if the core line version of both the Mira and the Starla are both being discontinued now that the S2 version are out. Decisions, Decisions...
I love my Mira, but as I said on the other thread, the 22 fret 25" scale mahogany Mira was something I wanted as soon as I saw the original Mira in 2007.
According to the PRS website, the core line Mira has been discontinued in favour of the S2 Mira (http://prsguitars.com/mira/).
Personally I'm hoping for an updated core line Mira or something in the 2014 catalogue, because the flattened curves of the S2 are ugly to me. I like the nice, round curviness of the core line Mira, and the pickguard on the core line Mira looks significantly better. To me the core line Mira is so aesthetically pleasing that it's worth the extra money.
I think Matt Pike should play a Mira.
Actually the top carves on the S2 series are inspired by the core Mira's carve. The flattened curve edge is just a very subtle difference, nothing biggie actually. And it is justified especially when you're selling the S2 at half the core Mira's price. I agree with you, the core Mira's pickguard looks better, but this newer one just has more of that garage-punk "thing" that's very fitting for a LP Special/SG rival. :D
For whatever reason, I like the overall shape of the S2 Mira better than the core Mira. Maybe because the neck is a little shorter, not sure, but it looks overall more proportional. I think it's the best-looking of the S2s.
They did rework the Mira shape for the S2, they made it closer to the Santana's measurements, more so than the Core Mira used to be. It could be that reason. I haven't been looking closely enough to see much difference, but it's definitely different-looking, like you said. :laugh: Oh well...
Could it be that what you guys are perceiving as a different shape is actually just the fact that the bridge and bridge pickup are further away from the neck joint? There's less space between the bridge and the bottom strap pin. It's like the difference between a CU22 and a CU24.
Maybe I should solve this puzzle by buying a S2 Mira and comparing it to me '07 Core Mira.
I like this graphic better: :vroam:
That's what I will tell my wife... "It was for science, honey! I had to!"
That IS better. With the other one, the knobs don't also move relative to the bridge/bridge pickup, so the finished product is inaccurate. Yours illustrates it without that pesky knob problem.
Pesky Knob Problem would be a good band name. PKP 4-EVA!

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
WRHA brass should testify: ethicist
A prominent medical ethicist says high-ranking officials in the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority should have to testify at the Brian Sinclair inquest on what they knew about his death and when they knew it.
Prof. Arthur Schafer, director of the University of Manitoba's Centre for Professional and Applied Ethics, said Thursday he's concerned that in the wake of Sinclair's death and for months afterward, high-ranking WRHA officials told the public Sinclair never approached the Health Sciences Centre triage desk when he arrived at the hospital, even though security video showed he had.
Related Items
"The public is entitled to hear from Dr. (Brock) Wright and other top officials of the WRHA in their role of communicating to the public what went wrong," Schafer said.
"The inquest should hear that."
Wright, the WRHA's chief medical officer now and when Sinclair died, and other WRHA executives are not on the witness lists given to lawyers representing individuals and organizations at the inquest.
The 45-year-old Sinclair died Sept. 21, 2008, after a blocked catheter led to a urinary-tract infection. A double amputee after an earlier frostbite injury, he lived in a care facility with funding from the province. He had rolled his wheelchair into the HSC emergency room 34 hours earlier.
Schafer said he's also concerned the critical-incident review report on the matter, leaked to the CBC Thursday, said emergency room personnel referred to the area as "a war zone."
"Did the hospital and the WRHA not know at the time what the conditions were like? If they did, why didn't they do something about it?
"I also want to know what exactly does 'war zone' mean? There certainly is an attitude of 'us versus them,' and 'them' is the public. How has that changed? I find this disturbing."
WRHA spokeswoman Heidi Graham said although the critical-incident report can't be made public, the five recommendations the review committee made were released in 2008. The recommendations, meant to prevent another death such as Sinclair's, include electronically registering everyone entering the emergency room before they enter the waiting room and having ER staff speak directly with everyone in the waiting room at least once every four hours.
"The WRHA has already acted on all these recommendations," Graham said. "Critical-incident investigations, which are protected under provincial legislation, facilitate learning and improvement. They do not replace any other investigations, such as an administrative review, police investigation or an inquest. Any of the individuals interviewed by critical-incident investigators can also be interviewed through other investigations and can be called to testify in open court during the inquest."
Graham said it's up to inquest lawyers to determine who will testify.
Lawyer Vilko Zbogar, who is acting for Sinclair's family and has seen portions of the critical-incident report, said "the overall comment is the more information that comes out, the more upset they are. It is increasingly apparent that what happened to Brian Sinclair was foreseeable and should have been prevented."
Zbogar said Sinclair's family is upset that the report -- and the inquest itself -- shows Sinclair was approached by members of the public four times, but their pleas for help were ignored by ER staff as he spent 34 hours dying there.

Two in a row can't be coincidence...can it?
The picture is a nice exploration of artistic expression. The detail and colours come together very well for a watercolour picture. Looking forwards to more!

The Oxford Handbook of Pain Management is the essential resource for all clinicians involved in the management of pain. Organised into sections dealing with basic principles of treatment, therapeutic interventions, including non-medical management of pain, and specific clinical situations, the Handbook emphasises the multimodal treatment options available for patients with pain conditions and brings them together to provide a truly biopsychosocial approach to management. Covering both chronic and acute pain, it will help the practitioner to choose the right treatment for the right patient at the right time.

Review quote
...leaves no topic uncovered...This is a brilliant effort considering the extent of the information and the brevity of the book...a must read for trainee physicians no matter their specialty... The Oxford Handbook of Pain Management is a remarkable book. In one pocket-sized volume you get the vast world of pain management - from labour analgesia ro opioid pharmacology, from advanced nerve block techniques to the principles of psychodynamics. The breadth of this book - the combined wisdom of 45 specialists - is breathtaking This is another addition to the well-known Oxford Handbook series. It aims to provide a concise 'in-your-pocket' guide to pain management a useful addition to an occupational health department's 'library'. I would also recommend it to trainees studying for their Membership of the Faculty of Occupational Medicine Part 2 as chronic pain is a common topic. Occupational Medicine, Feb 2013

Clark, who has worked at Wachovia's headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, since 1985, was named to his position four years ago. He supervises a staff of more than 300 recruiters, most of whom are stationed at facilities in Florida, South Carolina, Connecticut and New York. The operation is centralized. Clark can direct resources to places where they're needed and assign workers to various corporate projects. But the system also is decentralized so that the recruiters are in the field, working directly with individual business units. The arrangement makes it possible for them to learn firsthand about the requirements of the specific business and to be better able to anticipate its recruiting and staffing needs.
"While the recruiters are part of my organization, the internal clients feel as if they are working for them," Clark says. "It's the best of both worlds." He says that developing multi-dimensional relationships makes it possible for the recruiter to be proactive. Because his staff members are closely involved in planning at a local level within Wachovia units, they're in a position to support business initiatives from the start. When the company began expanding its retail operations into Manhattan last year, for example, Clark's recruiters were able to move quickly to staff 10 new branch offices, two of which are already open. In working with Wachovia's General Banking Group in Philadelphia, Clark's staff looked at the sales increases that would be necessary to meet revenue goals, calculated that 20 to 30 new salespeople would be needed to make the sales and set about to recruit and deploy them.
At the same time, being simultaneously plugged into all the far-flung business units enables Clark to use all his resources to meet a need in one area. When Wachovia recently had to restructure its investment banking unit because of declining revenues, a large segment of that unit's employees faced layoffs. Clark's team analyzed the investment banking specialists' skill sets and backgrounds, with an eye to figuring out how the employees could be used in other areas of the Wachovia organization, and then marketed them to those business units. The result: half of the displaced investment bankers who wanted to stick with Wachovia were able to find new jobs elsewhere in the company. The bank saved "some pretty significant dollars" in severance costs and, more important, was able to hang on to some workers "with leadership and sales skills that we didn't want to lose."
"Sometimes in the past, we may have been focused too much on filling jobs," says Clark, who anticipates making 27,000 to 32,000 new hires. "Now we want to find the talent first, and then look for the job that fits." For developing a system that accomplishes that goal, Clark and Wachovia win this year's Optimas Award for Service.

With this tutorial (my first) you can build a robot out of Bionicle pieces with controllable arm movements.
Attach the upper arm pieces to the torso as shown. Then, put gray connectors (picture 3) into the middle hole in each arm.
Put the knobs and rods in the back of the torso. Next, attach the black connector pieces.
Finally, add the double gear-shaped stick, and connect it to both the arm and the black piece.
You can now add things such as a head, forearms, etc. to make it more human-looking. Also, you can add gears in specific positions to make them move ...

bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
my s3 battery life is awful to the point of me considering this purchase was a mistake. i love this phone (when i have f***ing battery life).
here is the deal, my battery drains very quickly and this is with very minimal use. the culprit was the "android system".
using better battery stats, the culprit was "bam_dmux_wakelock".
i have tried to "minimize background app activity", cut mobile data (which is bull, because i shouldn't have to cut all these features when iphone gets amazing battery life not doing so), kill apps off using the home button. nothing works. i lose from 30-40% when i am asleep not using the phone.
any help? this is an at&t phone, it is not rooted. i cannot find much on the internet and i dont believe calling the dumbass tech support at samsung will give me an answer. sorry for the rant, i just want to enjoy this phone and i can't. any help would be greatly appreciated. -
Re: bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
you might have a crap phone. Exchange it for another one.
Re: bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
No. bam_dmux_wakelock is usually caused by something that is using mobile data in the background. Check here for the usual fixes.

Find out what app has activity when your phone is locked. The common culprits were Tracks and Latitude. - 09-05-2012, 08:48 PM Thread Author #4
Re: bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
I'll be honest with you I have no idea what it is; it may be an app someone downloaded. See if you can find an app that is using a lot of data under your data monitor. That app is likely the culprit. Do you use Latitude or Lookout tracking? Anything with GPS? Stuff that uses push notifications also can send a lot of data if a game is running in the background or something. See if you can find a data hog that shouldn't be running.
Re: bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
I think I may have figured this out. Go to Settings->Data Usage. Look at the app-by-app breakdown listed below. For apps that have consumed large amounts of data, click to see the ratio of data that's downloaded in the background as opposed to actively. For me, Spotify had used 263 MB in the background alone in 3 DAYS! I'd rooted and flashed only 3 days prior.
Hit options, and select 'restrict background data' for any app that has a high background data level. Doing that for Spotify brought my bam_dmux_wavelock down exponentially.
To confirm, I restricted background data across the entire system (by hitting options in the main data menu). Bam_dmux_wavelock is dead now and no longer a problem.
Hope this helps.

Re: bam_dmux_wakelock battery kill. please help.
Thanks for the advice. However, quick question, wouldn't restricting all background data basically stop any app from syncing ever, unless you opened it? If so, then email push, etc. wouldn't work right? For me that would defeat the purpose of having a smartphone. Please let me know if I am mistaken in how this would work. Thanks.

Fantasy football leagues are almost over and out this year, so I'm trying to find some new ways to invest my oh-so-talented hypothetical wisdom (here I come, fantasy golf!). But if there was a rap fantasy league, and there really should be, my waivers would already be pending for Memphis emcee Skewby - the reason he's still unsigned is a mystery to me. Today the Freestyle Series alum is here to post some big numbers yet again with the premiere of Everyday, a new leak from his forthcoming LP. Floating seamlessly over a cool melody from Charlie White and Premo (no, not Primo), Skewby drops knowledge on why the industry can be so hard for up-and-comers with lines like, "Building up my grammar, finding samples I can pan out/ Now I'm in the game and everybody got they hand out." If you liked this quick strike touchdown drive be sure to check out Skewby's More or Less LP, dropping via yours truly December 21, just in time for the playoffs.

Product description
In "The Dance of Intimacy," Dr. Harriet Lerner outlines the steps to take so that good relationships can be strengthened and difficult ones can be healed. Taking a careful look at those relationships where intimacy is most challenged -- too much distance, too much intensity or too much pain -- she teaches us about the specific changes we can make to achieve a more solid sense of self and a more intimate connectedness with others. Combining clear advice with vivid case examples, Dr. Lerner offers us the most solid, helpful book on intimate relationships that both women and men may ever encounter.
