SpyEye Trojan Code Leak Likely to Promote Rapid Proliferation
SpyEye Trojan Code Leak Likely to Promote Rapid Proliferation
Fahmida Y. Rashid
Posted 2011-08-16
With the once-pricey malware kit now available cheap-or even free-to cyber-criminals, experts predict an explosion in SpyEye variants
The source code for the SpyEye Trojan has been released, raising the possibility that one of the most prevalent Trojans in the wild could become an even bigger threat. The leak was the work of a French researcher called Xyliton, part of the RED (Reverse Engineers Dream) Crew, who released a tutorial to crack a copy of SpyEye builder 1.3.45, Sean Bodmer, a senior threat intelligence analyst at Damballa, wrote Aug. 11 on
The Day Before Zero blog
. This "leak" is important because it illustrates the coding techniques used by the authors of SpyEye, the Gribo-Demon's team, Bodmer said.
SpyEye first was detected in late 2009, right about when the Zeus banking Trojan was dominating the malware landscape. Both malware families targeted account credentials and other sensitive data to steal money from user bank accounts. SpyEye and Zeus were also both available on underground markets as software builders, or toolkits, that other
less-savvy cyber-criminals
could use to launch new attack campaigns. SpyEye builder kits were sold on the black market for as much as $10,000, according to researchers.
"SpyEye has been on everyone's priority list of threat discussions for quite some time, and is now going to become an even more pervasive threat," Bodmer said. Zeus functionality and code started appearing in the SpyEye malware kit in early 2011, prompting security experts to speculate the
developers had combined efforts
and that new development for Zeus would cease. That has not turned out to be the case as there's been some work on Zeus since the code merger.
Zeus source code
was leaked in March, making it possible for anyone to modify the source code and create even more powerful Zeus variants. "Damballa labs has been tracking dozens of new Zeus bot operators since the leak earlier this year, and now that SpyEye has been outed, it is only a matter of time before this becomes a much larger malware threat than any we have seen to date," Bodmer said. SpyEye activity has been growing in recent months, with 60 percent of SpyEye bots targeting banks in the United States and 53 percent targeting financial institutions in the United Kingdom, according to a recent report from Trusteer. The RED Crew tutorial provided instructions on how to crack the hardware identification scheme on SpyEye builder 1.3.45 to lock the software to a specific hardware device. People who bought the toolkit could use it only on one machine, according to Bodmer, who said it was possible to crack the VMProtect tool used on the builder in less than 15 minutes with the tutorial. With VMProtect broken, the builder could be traded freely among criminals and not be limited to only one machine per purchased copy. SpyEye variants created by using the cracked toolkit would be missing an attribution field in the code. Damballa has already identified new builders with the eliminated field selling for as low as $95 on the black market. "Reverse Engineering is nothing new, but putting in the hands of babes one of the most powerful cyber-threats today, 'for free', is something that will mean even more sleepless nights for security administrators," Bodmer said, calling the tutorial a "silver platter" for cyber-criminals. SpyEye developers have already released version 1.3.48 of the builder and newer versions are in the works, Bodmer said. The tutorial is not expected to work on later versions and the team behind the malware toolkit will be building in more protections to make it harder to crack, according to Bodmer. However, considering how expensive the builder is, many criminals will continue using the older and cheaper version of the toolkit to develop their campaigns, Bodmer predicted. There's some good news for security researchers, too, as they can now begin hunting for security vulnerabilities in SpyEye, in the same manner that cyber-criminals look for bugs in legitimate software to exploit. Security vendors will also be able to create signatures to detect SpyEye variants, Bodmer said. There are also sites that identify command-and-control servers used by the Trojan that companies can download to
blacklist SpyEye traffic

We all want to smell good all day long. As summer season is coming closer, we all are preparing ourselves to beat the scorching heat of the sun. Body odour is most common during the summer season. To avoid smelling bad, we apply deodorants and perfumes to smell good all day long. However, not all perfumes or deos can help you smell good for the entire day. You need to take care of your skin, hair and overall body in the summer season to smell good.
Following a good skin and hair hygiene is a must during summers. If you want to smell good whole day long, you have to take care of your skin and hair. For example, you should take bath regularly and wash your hair when it becomes oily. These steps of body hygiene will leave you smelling good whole day!
However, having a proper diet and drinking lots of water will also help you overcome the bad body odour. There are many foods that are rich in toxins. Avoid them as they increase the production of sweat and body odour. For example, red meat, and processed foods accumulate lots of toxins in the body. So, to smell good in summers, you should avoid such foods and dink lots of water. It not only keeps you hydrated but also helps cleanse toxins from the body. So, drink lots of healthy refreshing drinks like coconut water, lemon juice or fresh fruit juice in summers. Here are few simple body care tips to smell good whole day during summer season.

Jake Billings is usually cool under pressure, but when two stick-up kids rob his record store, Jake opens fire on them, landing him in prison. Five days in, he receives an anonymous letter telling him that his days are numbered. But before he can find out who's behind the threats, Jake is stabbed and ends up in a coma.
When he wakes in a hospital bed two years later, things have changed: His prison sentence has been commuted, his girlfriend is fiercely independent, and his side piece has gotten out of the street life altogether. But one thing remains: Jake's enemy still wants him dead and is powerful enough to track him down no matter where he hides.
On the run, and with rumors circulating about a powerful, phantomlike gang called the 300 Crew, Jake will need to rely on his mantra: Trust no one—not the law, not his girl, not the street cats he helped out years ago, not even his own blood.

During the late 1970's and early 1980's, Porn Star Jessie St. James was one of the prettiest faces in porn. An absolutely stunning blonde beauty, Jessie St. James brought a touch of class to all her roles. Jessie St. James had the look of a cover girl and the brazenly sexual nature of a born pornstress. Jessie St. James' naturally curvaceous, perfectly proportioned figure was a vision that could induce lust at fifty paces. A good actress as well, Jessie St. James has one of the most expressive faces in the biz.
Jessie St. James got into hardcore in 1975 with a short appearance in 'Blue Heat.' She shot sex films sporadically over the next few years, then jumped in with both feet in 1979. Jessie St. James was a bit older than some of her contemporaries, but that didn't slow her down one bit. Jessie St. James was known as one of the most dependably erotic performers around, and her energy and enthusiasm were the stuff of industry legend.
Jessie St. James' stock-in-trade was playing undersexed housewives or schoolteachers who are introduced into the world of erotic pleasure. Most of her best performances will find her playing one or the other of these roles. Her portrayal of the unsatisfied wife of Eric Edwards in 1981's 'Charli' simmers with passion, as does her turn as the bigamist in 1983's 'Between Lovers.' Her best scene may just be her lushly sensual encounter with John Leslie on the veranda of an English estate in the classic 'Insatiable,' but any one of her appearances is sure to get a rise out of any audience. Jessie St. James continued appearing in porn throughout the 80's, eventually leaving the biz for good by 1990.

Best Lewis Structure
The Lewis structure that is closest to your structure is determined.
The hybridization of the atoms in this idealized Lewis structure
is given in the table below.
Hybridization in the Best Lewis Structure
__has 41.71% C 1 character in a s0.96 p3 hybrid
__has 58.29% N 2 character in a sp2.67 hybrid
__has 59.83% C 1 character in a s0.96 p3 hybrid
__has 40.17% H 3 character in a s orbital
__has 59.82% C 1 character in a s0.97 p3 hybrid
__has 40.18% H 4 character in a s orbital
__has 60.05% C 1 character in a sp2.68 hybrid
__has 39.95% H 5 character in a s orbital
__has 44.15% N 2 character in a sp2.63 hybrid
__has 55.85% O 6 character in a sp2.62 hybrid
__has 37.97% N 2 character in a p-pi orbital ( 99.51% p 0.49% d)
__has 62.03% O 6 character in a p-pi orbital ( 99.79% p 0.21% d)
__made from a sp1.15 hybrid
__made from a sp0.47 hybrid
__made from a s0.16 p3 hybrid
Donor Acceptor Interactions in the Best Lewis Structure
The localized orbitals in your best Lewis structure
can interact strongly. A filled bonding or lone pair orbital can
act as a donor and an empty or filled bonding, antibonding, or
lone pair orbital can act as an acceptor. These
interactions can strengthen and weaken bonds. For example, a
lone pair donor->antibonding acceptor orbital interaction
will weaken the bond
associated with the antibonding orbital. Conversly, an interaction
with a bonding pair as the acceptor will strengthen the bond.
Strong electron delocalization in your best Lewis structure will
also show up as donor-acceptor interactions.
Interactions greater than 20 kJ/mol for bonding and lone pair
orbitals are listed below.
Molecular Orbital Energies
The orbital energies are given in eV, where 1 eV=96.49 kJ/mol.
Orbitals with very low energy are core 1s orbitals.
More antibonding orbitals than you might expect are sometimes
listed, because d orbitals are always included for heavy
atoms and p orbitals are included for H atoms.
Up spins are shown with a ^ and down spins are shown as v.

Total Electronic Energy
The total electronic energy is a very large number, so by convention
the units are given in atomic units, that is Hartrees (H). One
Hartree is 2625.5 kJ/mol. The energy reference is for totally
dissociated atoms. In other words, the reference state is a gas
consisting of nuclei and electrons all at infinite distance from
each other. The electronic energy includes all electric
interactions and the kinetic energy of the electrons. This energy
does not include translation, rotation, or vibration of the
the molecule.

My crazy life where frugality and earthy crunchiness collide.

Cow's Tongue - Yes It's For Dinner!
Years and years ago when I was in High School I took a home ec class and had 2 crazy guys as my cooking partners. We decided to cook tongue as our final project. I have no idea why. I do know that it must have been inedible because we certainly didn't have 3 hours to make it. We did get an A+ for originality! I certainly didn't eat it - I think I decided I was a vegetarian that day LOL!
Up until now the cows tongues have just sat in the freezer - they are so weird looking and HUGE these tongues are a foot long or more. I just wasn't sure about cooking them - my memory of that High School dish is not pretty.
Now all these years later I cannot stand to waste perfectly good food so I set out to find out how you cook this strange looking cut.
Beef Tongue
1 beef tongue, cleaned
1 onions chopped
4 cloves garlic chopped
fresh ground pepper and salt to taste
Water to cover
The first thing you must do is clean the tongue - ok, I can do that.
Next you put it in a pan, along with some veggies, cover it with salted boiling water and cook the tongue on low for 3 or so hours. The tongue will get strangely white. Remove the tongue and when it has cooled enough to work with peel the thick outer skin - yes you read me right - peel it. Don't let it get too cool or you will have a heck of a time removing it. I probably wasted a good bit of the tongue (will give it to the dog) but I had to slice off the thinner inner skin too - it still had the tastebuds and I just couldn't leave it on. If you are a braver soul go ahead and keep it.
At this point you will want to slice it and then you can put it in the fridge and then use it like bologna on a sandwich, or you can spice it up and serve like a pot roast. I decided to shred it and add Mexican seasonings and serve it in burritos.
So I cut the pieces up super tiny and then in a new pot melt shortening and add meat, to this add taco seasonings, stirring until blended.
I could have gone several ways we could have had it in a Mexican soup or chili or in tacos or burritos. I am making burritos just substituting the cow tongue for chicken and using - corn or flour tortillas, meat, beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, guacamole.
If I had some of the tongue meat left, I would have sliced it thin and froze some in small packages, my husband is one who likes it fried on a sandwich with mustard - me - not so much!
Oh and all that liquid from cooking the tongue - I am saving it for stock, oh yes I am!!!
So, to sum it up:
1. It tastes kinda like bologna (which I am not particularly fond of).
2. It tasted better all taco seasoned up.
3. I thought I would have more meat - I must have wasted too much.
3. I will cook the other 2 I have and any other I get free but I would never buy one. Nope, never buy one.

I make a cow tongue about once or twice a year...Mexi loves it! I usually shred it like beef and season and put it in tacos...blogged a Mexican dish more than a year back with it, as well. I think it tastes just like regular old beef...but it sure is NOT pretty, LOL!! Lovely post for the hearth and soul hop this week, Christy :D
ReplyDeleteTrish, I hope that my children grow to love offal and tongue and any other unusual food I prepare. I think it is much easier to learn as a kid. I am struggling to learn and like it all as an adult.
Rebecca - brave? I don't know, but a little crazy - absolutely!
Jackie - thanks - and you are welcome, I just had to be honest about tongue - it is just so unusual!Yummy, gotta say that this is one of my favorite cuts of meat. I like to cook it for ages, until it turns into a fab ultra-fatty melty pot roast. So flavorful!
I love that you are willing to just jump in and try it, even though cleaning a tongue and removing the skin is a wee bit odd. Great for the Hearth and Soul hop. Thanks for hosting!I guess it is just me in the NYC area, but pickled tongue is a delicacy in our delicatessens. The way it is made must be a yiddish thing because people clammer for it! I have had it, and it reminds me of a mixture of pastrami and bologna with a more beefy taste. I also think you are very brave christy for jumping in and trying it! As always thanks for hosting and posting on the hearth and soul hop! Alex@amoderatelife
ReplyDeleteButter - maybe I didn't cook it long enough - I will be doing that next time.
Alex - no pickled tongue in my area of the midwest, heck we don't even have delicatessens so this was all new to me. My husband was sad I didn't save him some for a sandwich though.
April - I just kept thinking that I needed to at least try it - I could always feed it to the dog if it was seriously gross.
Pam - thanks, I was kinda impressed with myself - it was W.E.I.R.D for sure! LOL
Joanne - if you could have seen me all day playing with my tongue because it is all I could think of. I never could dissect anything (well, except that frog in biology that we (my partner and I) performed open heart surgery on and kept the heart beating for like 15 minutes or something)anyhow - what you are doing is WAY grosser LOLMy mom told me on the farm her mom would put heart and tongue in a crock and cover it with whey to preserve it. There might have been spices with the whey also. When she decided to serve it, it was boiled, skinned and sliced. I bought one a while ago and did exactly what you did only in a crockpot. Then I put it in the food processor and hid it in tacos. I have another in the freezer. I think it's kind of good. I also like to eat beef heart and liver. There's something about nose to tail eating that appeals to me. I think there are nutrients missing from our diets since we stopped eating them. I want to get some kidneys and try making steak and kidney pie.

This is so timely. We bought 1/4 beef and I was given the stuff no one else wanted. I figure I paid for it, so we WILL eat it! The pickled tongue sounds good, also. Any recipe for that? ~Susan
ReplyDelete LOVE tongue and have since I was a kid. When I was young we ate it often, because it was a cheap meat. But it was also one of my favorites. My DH comes from a family that had never heard of, much less eaten, tongue, so getting him to try it was an exercise in futility for years. Our kids love it though, and request it often. When I get our 1/2 cow each year, I usually order 10-15 tongues. I discovered this year, quite by accident, that I could cook the tongue as usual, then chop it into approximately 1-inch cubes and prepare it with potatoes, carrots, onions and beef gravy (like pot roast or beef stew) and "forget" to tell DH what the cut of meat was until after we'd eaten. It turns out that he was just grossed out by the thought of eating a TONGUE, but loved the "pot roast". The back end of the tongue, especially, is essentially the same texture and flavor of a long-cooked round steak. Another great way to serve tongue is sliced about 1/4-inch thick, with a dip on the side of mustard mixed with a little horseradish.
So...any of you who can't stand the tongue, please feel free to send them this way. We love them (even though one of us doesn't actually realize he does, LOL!).Another New Yorker here. I grew up on tongue and love it, so it always surprises me to hear it being referred to as strange. Around here, it's EXPENSIVE.
http://www.theslowcook.com/2009/06/15/brining-beef-tongue/ has info, though to be honest, I'd just go to the store and buy it because I'm kinda squicked by not refrigerating meat.- AnonymousFebruary 25, 2012 at 8:21 PM
Thanks for the post. Just filling out my cut sheet for a 1/4 cow. Willing to give it a try. Once. And my husband will probably have to cook it. :)

COLUMBIA — El Ray Mobile Home will still close March 1, despite efforts by the county to push the closure to June.
Whirlwind Properties, the owner of El Ray, announced in late October it was closing the park because its sewer lagoon could no longer meet the needs of El Ray residents.
The Boone County Commission, on behalf of Grass Roots Organizing and residents of El Ray, asked that the Missouri Department of Natural Resources extend El Ray's wastewater permit expiration date from March 22 to June 1 in an effort to keep the mobile home park open longer.
In a letter to the Natural Resources Department dated Nov. 21, the commission said it hoped to avoid displacing residents and their children before the end of the school year. The commission also said it was worried that moving during the winter would be difficult for families.
Boone County Southern District Commissioner Karen Miller said the wastewater permit's March 21 expiration date had continued to come up as a reason for the park closing March 1. Miller said the Department of Natural Resources has since told her that it cannot consider a request for a permit extension on behalf of anyone other than the owner.
El Ray manager and co-owner Ron Netemeyer said that even if the wastewater permit were extended, he would still close the mobile home park March 1.
"Quite frankly, most of the homes have already been moved, " he said.
When El Ray residents were notified that the Mexico Gravel Road park was closing, they were offered the opportunity to relocate to either Sunset or Ed's Mobile Home Park, both on Lenoir Street and owned by Whirlwind Properties. If residents chose to move to one of the parks, their lot rent and paid fees would be waived for the first three months.
Netemeyer said his company has now started helping residents cover the expense of moving their trailers. Whirlwind is moving the homes of good tenants who are up todate on their rent at the company's expense. Netemeyer said they've moved at least five mobile homes so far, and that he hopes to be able to move 10 homes total.
"We're probably going to put out at least $20,000 to help residents," Netemeyer said. Although the help is generally in lieu of the three months free rent at Ed's or Sunset, Netemeyer said the decision is made case by case.
"We try to do our best to help our residents," he said.
Representatives of Grass Roots Organizing could not be reached for comment.
As the park gets ready to close, Netemeyer said the biggest challenge has been former residents abandoning their trailers — and their trash.
Whirlwind Properties has been issued at least two public nuisance citations for trash and discarded debris left at El Ray, including tires, building debris and furniture.
"We're working to clean up the lots as quickly as we can," Netemeyer said.
The Boone County Commission will hold a hearing at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday in its chambers at the Roger B. Wilson Boone County Government Center to determine whether a violation exists.
Netemeyer, who said he will not be at the hearing, said he hopes the debris at El Ray is cleared by the end of the weekend. Miller said the Columbia/Boone County Department of Public Health and Human Services will inspect the property on the morning of the hearing.
If the commission decides Whirlwind is violating the county's nuisance ordinance and the problem is not fixed, the commission can remove the nuisance itself and charge Whirlwind to cover the cost.
Miller said the violations are "serious," because the more you let junk pile, the more other people think piling junk is OK.
"Part of it is residents that have left a mess, and part of that is probably because they're mad," she said. "But it's still the landlord's responsibility for the property."

Iron fight back to deny Forest victory
Garry Thompson hit a superb late leveller for Scunthorpe as Nottingham Forest warmed up for the Coca-Cola Championships play-offs by squandering a two-goal lead to draw 2-2.
Thompson rifled in a 25-yard shot that went in off the underside of the bar to earn a point that had looked unlikely at the break.
Forest produced a fine first-half display and surged into a two-goal lead thanks to Joe Garner's cool finish and a glorious George Boyd goal.
But Scunthorpe rallied after the break and reduced the deficit through Niall Canavan's close-range finish before Thompson levelled.
The point saw Billy Davies' men finish third and set up a meeting with Blackpool in the play-off semi-finals, but Davies will be concerned about his side's worrying away form as they picked up just two points from the final 30 available on the road.
The Iron ended what has been a fantastic season with a point. Their safety was assured two games ago and they can now look forward to back-to-back seasons in the second tier for the first time in 46 years.

I gave Ando double the points for winning Nationals as I gave Kostner for winning Europeans though so I already took into consideration what you said. How much further should one go, punish Kostner for totally dominating Europeans like she is supposed to be doing. Ando earned more points from Nationals than Kostner did for Europeans under my points scale despite that Kostner has been way more dominant at Europeans than Ando at Nationals. For the record I dont think Ando would have won Europeans 5 times even if she had the opportunity to compete in it and she traded places with Kostner (she wasnt ever winning it before 2007, and she wouldnt have competed in it past 2011, and someone like Lepisto would have beaten her atleast once), and the competition at Europeans was actually harder 2003-2006 than Japanese Nationals since Slutskaya > anyone in Japan at the time, so I was more than generous to Miki in that estimate. Miki won 2 of her 3 Nationals when her toughest was Suguri, while Kostner would have had to beat Slutskaya to win a Europeans before 2007. During the time the competition at Japanese Nationals was truly much tougher than Europeans Kostner won 5 Europeans and Miki 1 Nationals. As for controversial wins Ando's 2011 World title was controversial to some people. Her 2009 Worlds medal also should have been considering her getting higher PCS than Rochette and Asada with her programs at the time is a joke, and that is the only reason she barely medalled over Mao. Ando's fall 2009 grand prix wins, and even one of her fall 2010 wins over Suzuki had some complaints at the time too.
Well Kim's program was inspiring but she didn't skate it well that night. Ando had no program but just went through the motions like doing a run-through on practice ice when another skater's music was playing. Kostner really deserved the highest PCS of the night.
I've just watched Kostner's LP again and she was even more shaky than Kim was. With placing 6th in the short and low technical content in both segments she wouldn't place above Kim or Ando anyway. I would've given Kim 64-65, Kostner 61-62 and Ando 58-60 respectively.
Those PCS sound exactly right and would have seen Ando lose the title to Kim (as most believe she should have, aka one of her controversial wins-medals). Had Ando done her 4CC performances it would have been good enough to deserve beating a lackluster Kim, but she didnt.
Miki barely lost to kim on PCS by 1 in SP, and 2 in FS. Although kim's programs were not better than her. Miki Ando FShttp://youtu.be/ZD_AtQv9ub4 Yuna kim FShttp://youtu.be/bHqwxLU4mIc I don't know why she chose traditional music of her country which is really internationally unknown. First of all, music choice was bad, unfamiliar.. I(And maybe many figuer skating fans....) don't like transitions and musics of that program. In particular, humming was weird Let's compare... At any point, kim's was better?
There is more to the PCS than programs. There is basic skating skills, interpretation, performance. Kim even on her worst day is far superior to Ando and her clunky two foot skating in all of those. As another poster said Ando could be skating to anyones music when she performs, it makes no difference. Looking at the protocals I see Ando actually had higher PCS than Kostner in both programs at those Worlds. A huge ROTFL to that. So much for Kostner being the more held up or overscored one.
Although im a huge Kostner fan. Atm i believe Ando to have had the better career. However after this next season and OLYMPICS i will hopefully feel different.
you're joking right?? her arirang/homage to korea is probably the most underrated LP of yuna. what do you mean about "many many figure skating fans that the program is bad? many fans even her doubters considered it as probably her best lp since the lark ascending. and if she was just committed into this and skated clean it would have been the best LP in her career and she only lost by 1 point..
Uh big fat YES Kim's programs are certainly better than Ando's programs by a planet. Artistically challenging, risk taking, original, authentic, meaningful, emotional and intellectually moving than anything Ando/Morozov has ever produced. 2+ years on, I am still gutted at the biased marking and frosty crowd reception at the rink (Or that Yuna was snubbed out of the official world championship booklet published by Japan/Russia/ISU). It is a joke Ando's PCS climbed massive 14 points in the same season for exactly the same program year before with just better packaging doing back to back jumps and basic strokes with her Morozovian cookie cutter program of simple segmentation routines and massive number crunching, and the judges ate it up like their favourite M&Ms Tsunami flavoured. The FS technical content is also inferior to her 4CCs. Ironically I have always felt had Mao been doing better that season, Yuna could have won. Also had there been better judging and more favourable crowd reception in Russia, there might have been 3 spots for the Russian ladies today for Sochi and no Yuna for 2013, 2014.
Are you sure Ando gained as much as fourteen points on PCS in the same season? It would be unheard of.
It is sad that this is the 1st placed LP beating two very beautiful LPs(Kim's Arirang & Kostner's Afternoon of a Faun). If I were a judge, I would rank like this... 1. Yuna LP (3-3, 5 triples, 2 3Lz, 0 3F) 2. Caro LP (2-3, 5 triples, 0 3Lz, 1 3F) 3. Miki LP (no 3-3, no 2-3, 5 triples, 2 3Lz, 0 3F) Judges at the Worlds treated Miki as if being a skater who has OGM reputation or a currentCaro-like skater who could gain high scores even without 3-3 & 6,7 triples. LOL.
Strange to see all these comments about Andos win at the 2011 Worlds when according to a couple posters one of her supposed advantages is none of her success is at all controversial, lol!
ok I will accept to some degree But maybe judges were more favorable to Ando reasonably because she was the best skater of that season. (kim had OGM last year? no matter) and punish yuna kim who doesn't participate in competitions in that season before World championship. Anyway It seems it is yuna kim's fault. If she competed in GPs, kim could have won, but regrettably she didn't
What I meant was total GOEs increase by 14.36 points from Cup of China to 4CCs, the PCS actually wentup 12.12 by the time of WC from beginning of the season even with 1 visible error and lessen BV content than her best performance at 4CCs, where Miki had the 2nd highest ladies FS ever in ISU history; without a 3:3 and benefited from nice momentum inflation to have resulted even higher score than Mao's amazing FS skate at WC 2010 with 2 triple axels. I went back to revisit the stats just to be precise. Miki Ando@ beginning of the season Coc 2010 SP TES 27.99 (Base value 27.50, GOEs 0.49) PCS 28.12 Coc 2010 FS TES 60.56 (Base value 54.69, GOE 5.81) PCS 55.60 4CCs 2011 SP TES 35.69 (Base value 28.40, GOEs 7.29) PCS 30.89 FS (Clean, 2nd highest FS ever recorded under ISU Ladies) TES 73.03 (Base Value 59.66. GOEs 13.37) PCS 61.73 Total GOE diff from 6.3 to 20.66 = +14.36 climb Total PCS diff 83.72 to 92.62 = +8.9 climb World championship 2011 SP TES 34.20 (BV 28.70, GOEs 5.5) PCS 31.38 ( + 3.26 CoC, +0.49 4CCs) FS (One major error) TES 65.75 (BV 56.69 [less BV than 4CCs], GOEs 9.06 [+3.25 Coc, -5.3 4CCs]) PCS 64.46 (+ 8.86 Coc, + 2.73 4Ccs) Total PCS diff is actually 12.12 between CoC (83.72) to WC (95.84) despite less BV content compare to the 4CCs where Miki went clean.
heh.. well yuna won this year's worlds without participating at the grand prix.. so.. who cares? anyway.. who has a better career? ando or kostner. it's a toss up. but after next year both will retire and i think kostner will have a better career overall..
They are not same case at all. At 2011 wc, kim and miki were so close. So It was so depend on judges mind. I don't think kim would feel it as unfair or I understand who can think kim was winner... but not that sure. They were very close, kim was not clearly winner like wc this year, reasonably judges were favorable to Ando. about 2013 World, She was overwhelming winner. She had two clean program while her competitiors make mistakes. So like in this case she could be a winner clearly. But many said she was underscored in SP since she came back after 2 years, not participate at GPs. And after she wins SP, judges reward her positively in FS.
It depends if you value an overall very well balanced record with lots of good medals, or 2 World titles instead of 1 but a weak career in most other ways. It is hard to say which is more valued, but many years from now it might be 2 World titles vs 1 World title looks like the better career even with the dozens of other things Kostner has achieved better. Then again some might see Kostner medalling at Worlds almost every year, and winning as many European titles as people like Witt and Henie and think that is amazing too, and not know how weak the European field was when she dominated. Kostner could put the argument to rest in Sochi if she does well anyway, but right now it is mostly preference and what one values in a good career.
With an Olympic medal now I would give the edge firmly to Kostner. 1 extra World title cant compensate for multiple more world medals, a grand prix final title and medals, and now an Olympic medal all together. Kostner just has had by far the more complete and rounded career, although both have had excellent ones.
Yes, Kostners Olympic bronze now puts her ahead in this comparison I think. Especially since her bronze medal performance was so impressive and against a very tough field. Whereas Mikis best Oly result is 5th against a weaker field. Another thing in Kostners favor is she has been successful for longer than MIki. Kostner has 5 world medals over 8 years whereas Miki had 3 medals in 5 years. Well, if Carolina wins in Saitama, it will settle the question for sure.
Kostner is indisputably ahead of Ando, especially because she skated incredibly well the past couple seasons, and her performances at Sochi made a very strong case for the gold.
Kostner was definitely robbed in Sochi. She should have beaten atleast one, if not both, Kim and Sotnikova. That should be factored in as well when evaluating her career. Andos 2nd World title was also questionable at best, and while it wasnt a glaring controversy there are probably more people who think she shouldnt have won it than think she should have.
Even discounting the number of times she was glaringly robbed in her career, Kostner has the edge on Ando in all competitions besides worlds and even at worlds she has 5 or 6 medals to only 3 for Ando. Kostner easily. Ando didnt even deserve atleast one, and maybe both, of her world titles if they were fairly marked competitions anyway.
When was Kostner ever robbed, other than at Sochi? The only other possible case is 2010 Worlds, but there it's due to URs and not underscoring?
I wonder if Kostner would have had the same amount of success had Ando competed in competitive form following her Worlds win in 2011. That said, Kostner's career in the past four seasons has been incredibly impressive and IMO, she has had the better career. If Kostner wins another Worlds, then I think that'll just make it more obvious that Kostner had the better career (even if Adelina and Kim aren't competing) because the rest of the field is capable of high TES, high PCS, or both.
Ando has never skated at the level Kostner did at the Olympics, and even Kostner only won the bronze. So I cant forsee Ando even remaining in competitive form taking away Kostner's Olympic medal.
I disagree, but I love Miki's 2007 Worlds performance. Although I am really growing to appreciate Kostner, and did enjoy her skating from the Olympics. 2007 Worlds was the year Miki was really going for the 3Lz/3Lp, and she probably would have benefited from the current rules. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJcbAvphGpk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aK02CsBwDE
Ando never had the whole package. In 2007 she hit her jumping peak but didnt have the artistry. In 2011 she had improved her spins and presentation but didnt have great difficulty in her jumps anymore.

Re: Jerry can & fender covers material?
In keeping with the original question in this thread, does anyone have a pattern for jerry can covers? Or photos and examples of what they did? I am also looking for a pattern for dinghy chaps.
Jack, I cannot answer for Magnolia, but for us, we are taking our C34 down to Mexico in 2015. I've been told that over time, the sun down there is very harsh on plastic/rubber/hypalong. Our boat has a pretty small fuel tank and the distances between fuel stops is great coupled with inconsistent winds means a fair amount of motoring. My plan is to strap a pair of jerry cans to my Stb lifelines at approximately midships. I've been thinking that I might strap them to a fender board and clamp that to my stanchions for better support and stability.

This is a review of Logitech Ultimate Ears UE 600vi earphones: UE 600 Noise-Isolating Earphones - Logitech The choice of headphones is always a matter of personal preference and taste. But one thing will be common with all of them: no matter how much you will try to convince yourself that your pair of budget earphones sounds pretty good - as soon as you get a chance to do A/B comparison with a premium one, you will never going to look at your cheap earphones the same again. The problem is where do you set a limit for a premium pair since the price of top earphones can quickly get out of control in multiple hundreds of dollars. I personally always look into a quality earphones as an investment that will last for many years of use with your different phones and tablets, and the limit doesn't have to skyrocket and rather can stay in $100 reasonable range. Recently I got a chance to review a pair of UE 600vi earphones which I found to be one of the top sounding and the best fitting earphones I have ever tested, and for the price of $72 on Amazon its a great deal for such a piece of technology. The earphones came in a very attractive package, nothing over the top but definitely with a premium touch. Included with UE 600vi was 5 pairs of silicone tips and 2 pairs of bonus original Comply tips which I found to be a huge surprise. You also get a detachable shirt clip, a hard protective case, a very detailed user documentation, and another interesting booklet labeled ALL ACCESS with pictures of a lot of different artists wearing UE earphones. The earphones itself have on-chord controls which include volume up/down and multifunction play/call button. Intended for seamless integration with Apple products, this is still a very functional remote for Android users. Yes, volume will not work because of Apple's own implementation of controls and built in resistors, but multifunction button is very capable! First of all it will play/pause any song of your default audio player as well as video player. With addition of the free app from Google play: JAYS Headset Control, I was able to add double-/triple-click control of skipping to next/prev song and also fine-tune time delay between clicks. The chord design of these is actually tangle resistant which I found especially useful when storing UE 600vi inside of the included hard protective case. There are a few other details that make these standout, such as in addition to letter designation of right vs left, they actually changed the right earphone to include "red" inner plastic part where red=right. The earphone plug is L-shaped and slightly angled which takes away a chord tension/strain when removing headphones - one of the common failures when chord stretches and breaks at the 3.5mm connector plug. Also, design itself is very light weight, and the shape of earphones has by far the best fit I have ever experienced, even with soft silicone tips. As a matter of fact, the design works great in both straight down and over the ears directions. I have been testing these for a few days, and can wear it for hours without even noticing them in my ears. Although it's hard not to notice it since one of their main functions is to provide noise isolation. You can't miss that! The noise reduction of almost 26db is noticeable the second you plug these into your ears where everything gets pushed into background, attenuated to a level where it won't bother you. But the magic happens when you start playing the music. As soon as you hit play - you get exposed to one of the clearest sounds you ever heard. The power comes from a custom tuned single driver that brings an incredible crisp clarity to your ears. With so many earphones on the market where they only concentrate on delivering pounding bass, the first second you start listening in these you will notice somewhat lack of bass. It's there, but not as pronounced, and rather more balanced without any built-in enhancements to boost it like in other earphones brands/designs. What I have done right after receiving these to go through 12 hours burn in period where you play white-noise loop to burn-in earphones (very useful source of that which plays in the loop: White Noise Burn-in). That made a definite improvement in low frequency sound. Still, don't expect a pounding bass, since these earphones are more about true reproduction of the sound rather than enhancements which you can do yourself with Eq setting. The mids and highs coming out of these headphones are beyond crispy clear. You will hear details that you never heard before. In addition, per Logitech/UE own reference of 3D soundstage, you get a wider sound which is so hard to achieve with in-ear headphones since you are limited by acoustic space between your ears rather than sound traveling/bouncing around your room before reaching your ears. I don't consider myself a particular audiophile, but based on comparison testing, especially with my recent review of Klipsch S4A II, UE 600vi really stand out above the rest in the same category. Of course, it wouldn't be fair to compare UE 600vi to their other flagship UE 900 model where you have quad-driver design or other premium brands/models that cost 4x-5x as much. But in my opinion 600vi stands head and shoulders above competition in this $100 headphone category, with some which cost twice as much. Overall, I highly recommend UE 600vi for a reason that it's a great value for such a premium sound. The design details is just a bonus, and the ability to use it's built-in media control in full capacity with Android phone is just an icing on a cake. Forgot to mention, it also makes great calls and people on the other side where very impressed with sound quality and lack of background noise considering the mic is placed with on-chord remote control and not right next to your mouth when using earphones hanging down. Of course, this is just my opinion, and I'm sure there will be some people who are so used to exaggerated bass they will find these not their cup of tea. But if you want a super clean and clear sound with just right amount of bass without any exaggeration - give UE 600vi a shot! Here are the pictures:
Just wanted to follow up with my initial review since I got a chance to use these headphones more and to compare it to my other Bluebuds X, Tone+ HBS730, Klipsch S4A II, and even pairing it up with Antec bluetooth receiver to make it wireless. My comparison was purely from a sound perspective. The reason why I did that was because I realized in every review I comment about one or the other sounding better than previous pair. But it's always a relative comparison. A new pair of earphones sounds great up until you compare it to another one. If I have to rank them in order of sound quality (price and wired/wireless aside) it will definitely be: 1) UE 600vi (not as deep bass, but very balanced and natural, and some of the cleanest mids/highs I ever heard - brings music to live) 2) Klipsch S4A II (bass is deeper but still clean, mids are ok, but highs feel rolled off in favor of bass enhancement) 3) Bluebuds (bass is deeper, but also feels a bit muddy, mids/highs don't sound as natural/clear - probably internal processing enhancement/compensation) 4) HBS730 (lack of bass, and over-exaggerated mids/highs, sounds harsh and not natural at all). Also when using UE600vi with Antec bluetooth receiver, sound becomes more compressed and looses lows and top highs probably due to bandwidth limitation of bt transfer. It surely becomes convenient since you can use these earphones wireless now and get the full control of playback and volume from the attached receiver. But the only way to keep these sound naturally, you need to have a direct connection to the phone. Another things I forgot to mention is a brilliant sensitivity of these headphones. Typically quality earbuds will have 100-105 dB SPL/mW, which means the sound is not as clear at low volume and you really need to crank it up where in some cases when it gets loud the distortion happens. These are 115 dB SPL/mW which means the sound is loud and clear even at low volume setting and you can crank it up loud with very little distortion. I never been an audiophile, but once you start comparing and appreciate the sounds, you want to learn more about it
I have been reading about this earphone since you mentioned it on the prior post. It seems like a great deal with amazing sound...but, a lot of negative reviews on the build quality/durability of these earphones. That is where I am always afraid about when getting an affordable product like headphones...you get what you pay for in some cases. I wonder if Logitech sacrificed some build quality in favor of sound...while Klipsch S4 does the opposite sort of speak. Klipsch S4 uses old driver design (not armatures like UE 600) to keep price low. These old drivers are relatively small too (8.5) but good with heavy bass but suck with mid to upper frequencies (or so I have read). So, Klipsch designed these old drivers with dual magnets to help them move faster (& respond faster) along with enclosures to improve sound...thus, helping mid and high frequencies somewhat. I think that this is why S4's are so popular...they are bass heavy for sure, which is popular with most (non-audiophile) folks, but it also has half-decent mid-range and tiny bit of high range. It certainly cannot compete in the mid-range and treble with the newer armature-driven earphones. As a reward for still using yesterday's drivers, Klipsch did a pretty good job on build quality for the S4 II (2nd generation), pretty much eliminating most of the 1st generation's issues. And kept the price reasonable.
I know what you are saying regarding UE 600vi. See, originally those were released 2 years ago as UE 600 without in-line remote. I have read about some of the quality issues, even UE logo rubbing off after a week or so of use. UE 600vi was introduced a year later with in-line remote and improved quality. When you go to Amazon, UE600 and UE600vi are combined into one product review where 600 listed under "earphones" and 600vi under "headsets". When you look for majority of negative reviews talking about shorting out or quality problems, those refer to older 600 model. I do wish they would have flat cable since it provides a more durable design, but it still feels durable enough. Also, L-shaped connector is definitely big plus since in my previous experience it's where I usually break cable. Sound wise between UE and Klipsch, they are both good but when you hear the clarify of highs in UE and experience the space of the sound (instead of in your ear closed space) - I can't go back to S4A II
Ahh, I see. Very cool. For me, like you, once I heard Klipsch X7i, I can't go back to the S4A II. I find the X7i to be very balanced, which I can't say the same about S4.
Love these earphones! Have owned a pair for over a year now, no problems, great build quality! Very comfortable, great sound quality.
I was just browsing Amazon, and noticed they dropped a price on UE 600vi (with a remote) down to $59.59. In my opinion a great deal! Amazon.com: Logitech Ultimate Ears 600vi Noise-Isolating Headset - Dark Silver: Electronics

Occupation: General Manager of a health club and restaurant owner
A 49-year-old wife and mother of two adult daughters, Marci Crozier tried out for "The Biggest Loser" to help her daughter, Courtney, but realized along the way that she needed to get healthy too. She was born and raised with five siblings in Gary, Ind., and graduated from Lake Superior State College, where she received a bachelor's degree in sports and recreation management with an associate degree in business administration. Marci was lean and fit growing up, and played sports on a scholarship in college. But after having her daughters, she never lost all her pregnancy weight, and the stresses of work and life and her mother's death all contributed to additional weight gain. Marci, who now weighs 238 lbs., was particularly inspired by season eight contestant Shay Sorrells, and wants to be a better role model to her daughters by taking care of herself. She looks forward to playing racquetball again after losing the weight, as well as being more confident speaking in front of large crowds. She is excited to stand next to Courtney during her journey. Marci wants to share a message to fitness trainers to open their hearts and welcome deconditioned people with compassion and concern.

Vacancy at patent office 'untenable,' senator says
Tuesday - 6/3/2014, 1:44pm EDT
Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), the ranking member of the Finance Committee, is calling on President Barack Obama to nominate a permanent director for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Michelle Lee (USPTO photo)
The top spot at the patent agency has remained vacant since former director David Kappos departed the agency in February 2013.
In a letter to Obama and Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker, Hatch said the vacancy "hampers the agency's ability to influence policy and make long-term plans."
Michelle Lee, a former Google executive who led the USPTO satellite office in Silicon Valley, has been serving as de facto head of the agency since being named deputy director by Pritzker last December.
Hatch said his call for a permanent director is not a reflection of Lee's performance.
"By all accounts, Deputy Director Michelle Lee has done an admirable job juggling the functions and duties of both director and deputy director," he wrote in the letter to Obama and Pritzker. "But this arrangement simply cannot continue. Without a director backed by a presidential nomination and Senate confirmation, the USPTO does not have a leader who can engage in the type of strategic and long-term planning that is crucial for ensuring the USPTO's continued effectiveness."
Letter: Vacancy 'unfair, untenable, and unacceptable'
As acting director, Lee "does not possess the same clear mandate as would a presidentially-nominated and Senate-confirmed director," Hatch sad. "Leaving Ms. Lee to shoulder the burden of USPTO leadership alone is unfair, untenable, and unacceptable for our country's intellectual property agency."
Hatch said having permanent leadership in place is important as the agency embarks on a number of new initiatives, including opening satellite offices across the country and implementing other pieces of the 2011 America Invents Act. USPTO is also still working to cut through a hefty backlog of unexamined patent applications, which, as of April 2014, numbered more than 619,000.
"These are just a few of the challenges and opportunities facing the USPTO that are needlessly complicated by the absence of a director to provide a forward- looking vision," the letter stated.
Hatch added: "Leaving the agency without a permanent director for nearly a year and a half without so much as a public explanation is inexcusable."
House approves budget increase for USPTO
Meanwhile, the House recently approved USPTO's fiscal 2015 budget, paving the way for a 14 percent budget increase at the agency.
Under the appropriations measure passed by the House April 30, the USPTO's budget would be increased to $3.5 billion, which is the full amount of fees the agency estimates it will collect next year and an increase of $434 million above current levels.
PTO is able to access excess funds collected through fees, but it first must obtain permission from lawmakers to do so.
According to a House budget summary, the agency's operating reserve is slated to grow to more than $1.07 billion by next fiscal year. But House appropriators said they're "perplexed" about the growth of the reserve funding "given the current fragile state of IT infrastructure" at the agency.
The appropriations bill "encourages PTO to reexamine its fee structure and maximize investment in addressing IT deficiencies as soon as possible."

"Where's Your Mother?" … and 13 Other Things I Think When My Kid's Having a Tantrum
Listen, I understand the need for compassion when it comes to raising toddlers. I get that I need to be conscious of my son's perspective and remember that he's just going through all the normal developmental stuff. But honestly, when the kid decides to travel through Dante's nine circles of hell and bring anyone within earshot with him, it's hard for me to find my inner Gandhi.
