Transport Layer Security
- 2048 bit or 4096 bit (in accordance with FIPS 140-2 §4.7.3)
- UAB has contracted with InCommon for TLS certificates for all of uab.edu. UAB systems using PKI should use these InCommon certificates. InCommon certificates can be ordered here.
- Self-signed certificates are not recommended, nor are the use of other Certificate Authorities (CA). If you need to use any of these, contact Enterprise Information Security with a request through AskIT.
- Wild card certificates should not be used. If you need to use a wild card certificate, contact Enterprise Information Security through AskIT.
- TLSv1.2 is modern and provides the safest encryption. The use of this protocol is strongly recommended.
- TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1 are acceptable. TLSv1.0 should be phased out as soon as possible.
- SSLv2 and SSLv3 are not allowed for TLS encryption at UAB.
- You must use FIPS 140-2 where required by compliance.
- Use AES-256 or AES-128 for symmetric ciphers.
- Use RSA-2048 or RSA-4096 for non-elliptic curve public key cryptography.
- Use Diffie Hellman Ephemeral (DHE) or Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman Ephemeral (ECDHE) for key exchange with forward screcy.
- Use SHA-2 rather than MD5 or SHA-1 for signatures, etc.
- You should use ciphers that provide greater or equal to 128 bits real security or 3DES.
- You should order ciphers by highest strength first.
- Export (low-strength) ciphers are not allowed.
- You should include ciphers that provide Perfect Forward Encryption.
- Cipher strength selection should prioritize between confidentiality and then performance.
- You should only use Transport Layer Security where it is required to protect information.
- You should not have mixed secure and not secure for Web applications. Use the single mediation model.

- HIGH: Encryption suites with key lengths equal to or larger than 128 bits. Included in this definition is the 3DES (Triple DES (Data Encryption Standard)) encryption suite.
- MEDIUM: Encryption suites with key lengths that are less than 128 bit but not included in those categorized as "export". Does not include 3DES.
- EXPORT (LOW): Encryption suites with key lengths that are 64 bit or less.
- Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman (RSA): RSA is one of the first practicable public-key cryptosystems and is widely used for secure data transmission.
- Diffie-Hellman (DH): DH is a specific method of securely exchanging cryptographic keys and was the first specific example of public-key cryptography as originally conceptualized by Ralph Merkle.
- Elliptic curve Diffie–Hellman (ECDH): An anonymous key agreement protocol that allows two parties, each having an elliptic curve public–private key pair, to establish a shared secret over an insecure channel.
- Transport Layer Security (TLS): Cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over a computer network. They use X.509 certificates and hence asymmetric cryptography to authenticate the counterparty with whom they are communicating, and to exchange a symmetric key.
- AES128, AES256, AES: A specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology in 2001. AES is based on the Rijndael cipher developed by two Belgian cryptographers, Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, who submitted a proposal to NIST during the AES selection process. Implementations are available using 128 bit AES or 256 bit AES.
- AESGCM: AES in Galois Counter Mode (GCM): These ciphersuites are only supported in TLS v1.2.
- 3DES: Triple DES is the common name for the Triple Data Encryption Algorithm symmetric-key block cipher, which applies the Data Encryption Standard cipher algorithm three times to each data block.
- DES: Once a predominant symmetric-key algorithm for the encryption of electronic data. It was highly influential in the advancement of modern cryptography in the academic world. Developed in the early 1970s at IBM and based on an earlier design by Horst Feistel. DES is now considered to be insecure for many applications. This is chiefly due to the 56-bit key size being too small.
- RC4: In cryptography, RC4 is the most widely used software stream cipher and is used in popular Internet protocols such as Transport Layer Security. While remarkable for its simplicity and speed in software, RC4 has weaknesses that argue against its use in new systems. It is especially vulnerable when the beginning of the output keystream is not discarded, or when nonrandom or related keys are used; some ways of using RC4 can lead to very insecure protocols such as WEP.RC2
- Pre-shared keys (PSK): Pre-shared key or PSK is a shared secret which was previously shared between the two parties using some secure channel before it needs to be used. To build a key from shared secret, the key derivation function should be used. Such systems almost always use symmetric key cryptographic algorithms.
- Certificate Authority (CA): A certificate authority or certification authority is an entity that issues digital certificates.
- Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): A protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL version 3.0 was released in 1996. As of 2014 the 3.0 version of SSL is considered insecure as it is vulnerable to the POODLE attack that affects all block ciphers in SSL; and RC4, the only non-block cipher supported by SSL 3.0, is also feasibly broken as used in SSL 3.0.

Secunia PSI
Secunia PSI is a security tool designed to detect vulnerable and outdated programs and plug-ins. These vulnerabilities expose your PC to attacks which are rarely blocked by traditional anti-virus due to the fact they exploit programs already on your computer and are therefore increasingly "popular" among criminals. Order/Download Now
The only solution to prevent these types of attacks is to apply security updates, commonly referred to as patches, to every piece of software and plugin on your system. Finding and applying these patches is a tedious and time consuming task. Secunia PSI automates identifying vulnerable software and alerts you when your programs and plug-ins require security updates. Secunia PSI will also alert you when software reaches the end of a support life cycle and may require an upgrade.
Note: The default installation of the PSI client automatically updates Java and will automatically install updates that may cause incompatibilities UAB systems including Blackboard Vista, Oracle HR/Finance, and Banner.
There are two methods of configuring PSI and working with automatic updates. Please choose the appropriate one.
- Update Approval before Automatic Updates (Risk is not reviewing Secunia)
- Automatic Updates and ignoring Java (Risk is ignoring java)
Update Approval before Automatic Updates
Execute the PSI installer, click Next and then accept the License Agreement.
On the screen marked "Auto-Update Configuration" check the box "Require user-interaction before each Auto-Update"; click Next.
Click Next through the remainder of the install screens and click "Finish."
After installer finishes launch the PSI client.
The client will immediate start a scan. Close the popup and wait for the scan to finish.
Scan results will likely show that there are insecure programs present.
Approving Updates
For software that has pending updates. Those updates can generally be applied by left clicking the Approve Update link at the right hand side of the scan results page. Sometimes the software cannot be automatically updated and will require the user to download and install the update manually. In this case, clicking the update link will direct the user to the appropriate website to download the patch.
Ignore Java Updates and allow unprompted automatic updates
This configuration can leave Java as a risk that will never be identified. However, it will automatically update many packages without user interaction.
Execute the PSI installer, click Next and then accept the License Agreement.
On the screen marked "Auto-Update Configuration" check the box "Require user-interaction before each Auto-Update"; click Next.
Click Next through the remainder of the install screens and click "Finish."
After installer finishes launch the PSI client.
The client will immediate start a scan. Close the popup and wait for the scan to finish.
Scan results will likely show that there are insecure programs present.
View the scan results and take note of the location of the unpatched version of java and any other programs that should not be automatically updated.
Expand the Configuration menu on the left and select "Settings."
Select the "Ignore Rules" tab at the top of the configuration screen.
Select "Create Ignore Rule" and name it java (or whatever program needs exclusion). Enter the location to the program in the box labeled "Rule Path".
Clicking OK should immediately exclude the program from the scan list.
Finally, re-enable auto-updates for all programs that are not excluded. Select the PSI Settings tab and uncheck "Prompt before running automatic program updates."
The computer will now update installed software automatically.

Cats have a long history as companions to their human owners, and some seriously wild stories have come out of all those centuries. In some societies, they were treasured; in ancient Egypt, cats were so loved that owners shaved their eyebrows in mourning when a prized pet feline died. In others, cats were on the receiving end of dangerous superstition and were seen as the companions of witches. While we can get a good laugh out of some of the hare-brained tall tales of the past, a few myths have a strangely strong persistence and still affect cats today.
* Black cats crossing your path: The myth that bad luck will haunt anyone whose path is crossed by a black cat is tied to more widespread suspicion of black cats. In England and Europe during the middle ages, black cats were associated with black magic ceremonies, and known as "familiars" of witches. We might think we're too savvy for those beliefs today, but shelters note that black cats are more difficult to adopt out than their more colorful counterparts.
* Cats and seafaring: For animals are supposed to hate water, cats and sailors have shared a surprising bond over the years. Cats were often kept onboard ships as good luck charms, and their behaviors were believed to be predictions of fair or foul weather. Interestingly, sailors' wives in England kept black cats – maligned as they were elsewhere – as talismans to protect their husbands at sea.
* Cats should have litter of kittens before being spayed: This particularly dangerous myth is still going strong today, even when shelters are full of cats that need homes. Spaying can generally be done when kittens are 8 weeks old, according to the ASPCA.
* Cats don't need as much protein as dogs do. Think your little kitty can get by on a saucer of cream and no meat? Think again! Cats need high levels of animal protein (about 34 percent of the calories in an adult cat's diet, 40 percent for kittens) to get all the amino acids they need, and a raw cat food diet can help with that. As a ratio of their whole diet, cats actually need more than dogs, which is just one reason why feeding dog food to a cat is a bad idea – kitty needs more protein!
While some old legends can make for an entertaining read, knowing the truth behind the myths still around today is important and can help protect cats' welfare.

I could always experiment, but in the middle of sailing season there's this trade-off: Keep sailing and risk a problem - or open things up and risk losing the season...
I consulted with my business partner and he confirms that the chainplates are behind the wood panels. It should be fairly simple to get at them.
Don't be afraid to dig into this sort of stuff on your boat. You need to become familiar enough with the boat so that you have the confidence to, at the very least, know what you are paying others to do for you should you choose that route.
If you see evidence of leaking, ie heavy rust stains, then you need to address it.
Remember, chainplates usually always break where they pass through the deck. Moisture is trapped in there and there is a lack of air circulation and the chainplates will develop cracks. Next thing you know. They break.
If you do see signs of corrosion and decide to pull the chainplates for a closer inspection. Replace them. And the bolts. Even if they look okay. It's not worth going to all that trouble and putting the old ones back in. New chainplates, especially stainless ones aren't that expensive.
Good luck

Domenici Emphasizes Drilling in Talk
By STACI MATLOCK
Energy industry conference also draws Pearce, Udall, Bingaman
By Staci Matlock
The New Mexican
New Mexico's Republican Sen. Pete Domenici quieted a sustained standing ovation from several hundred energy-industry representatives Monday with a raised hand.
Then, for the last time as a senator after 36 years, Domenici proved why he's been the industry's champion. Slapping a hand repeatedly down on the podium in the El Dorado Hotel ballroom to emphasize his frustration, Domenici said it was unbelievable America hadn't been able to tap into its own off-shore oil reserves for more than 20 years because of a moratorium. Now that Congress has let the moratorium lapse, maybe American companies can finally start using more of its own resources, Domenici told the packed crowd of 1,200 oil and gas company executives, well drillers and other industry professionals. "Ask any of the candidates if they support off-shore drilling," Domenici urged. "If they tell you 'maybe,' or 'if,' or 'but,' then you know where they stand. Don't vote for them."
Domenici and the two congressmen now battling for his Senate seat — Reps. Steve Pearce, R-N.M. and Tom Udall, D-N.M. — and Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., all spoke at the 80th annual gathering of the New Mexico Oil and Gas Association.
Domenici said it was unfortunate that many New Mexicans didn't understand how crucial the oil and gas industry is to filling the state's coffers for public schools and other programs. Others echoed his sentiments, saying the state was imposing measures that made it increasingly expensive and bureaucratic to drill in the state.
Santa Fe attorney William Carr, with Holland & Hart, said the strong reaction by Santa Fe County to proposed drilling in the Galisteo Basin, and a subsequent moratorium, were examples of the "not in my backyard" attitudes seen increasingly around the nation. Yet at the same time, Americans are upset about rising fuel prices and the dependence on foreign oil, he said. The state Oil Conservation Division is supposed to protect the environment, but also not allow the waste of oil or gas, he said.
A new draft oil and gas ordinance in Santa Fe County, which greatly limits drilling in the Galisteo Basin, risks crossing into areas already regulated by the state, Carr contended. "This ordinance is not directed at public safety and health," Carr told the crowd. "It is aimed at preventing drilling in their backyard."
"The notion that there's not going to be a (legal) fight over this is false," Carr said.
Climate change and energy were inextricably linked at the conference.
Marvin Odum, president of Houston-based Shell Oil Co., took a conciliatory tone, saying environmentalists and the oil and gas industry have common ground when it comes to climate change. He said the industry needs to meet the increasing energy needs of the nation while figuring out ways to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions linked by scientists to climate change.
Odum said the recent economic crisis has pushed the energy and climate-change issues off of Congress' front burner. He said both need to be back at the front of the congressional agenda in the next session. And Odum outlined the steps Shell is taking to reduce its own greenhouse-gas emissions.
But Shell's efforts to address climate change is the very thing that will get the oil and gas industry in trouble, according to Michael J. Mazzone, a Houston lawyer who's represented energy companies including in New Mexico.
"If you and your technical advisers believe carbon dioxide emissions are causing global warming, then do something about it," Mazzone advised the group. "But if you and your advisers don't believe it, then don't create programs to address it or pander to environmentalists."
That increases the risks of litigation, he said, mentioning a recent case in which an Alaska Native village filed a lawsuit against several major oil companies and electric utilities, claiming they are causing global warming that harms the village. That lawsuit uses some of the energy company's own advertising quotes about climate change against them, Mazzone said.
The New Mexico Oil and Gas Association's annual conference continues today.

Town of Plattsburgh Officials are now in the final phases of having the burned remains of the property at 310 Stafford Road Demolished.. The work was put on hold by what Councilman Marty Mannix describes as state law forcing more unnecessary expense for the county and for the town..
"They sent an inspector in to inspect the property and the inspector indicated that the building was unsafe and would not enter the property. We have a limited number of inspectors who can inspect the property for aspestos. State Law says if the property can't be inspected, the entire building is considered to have aspestos."
AUDIO – 082014 – Town Approves Contracts for 310 Stafford Road Demolishion
"It needs to be torn down but it's also costing a lot more that it needed to cost to have the building torn down."
The Town Board has entered into two additional contracts now for asbestos abatement and demolition which were not originally going to be required.. The costs of these contracts may be absorbed by Clinton County if the value of the property in a sale can't cover the Town's expenses..
The City of Plattsburgh has asked their Building Inspector Joe McMahon to begin developing a list of properties that appear to be in a similar situation as the one on Stafford Road and there are a few.. Their plan is to investigate the question of how to appropriately deal with what councilman Dale Dowdle refers to as Zombie Properties at a future work-session.. Plattsburgh Town Supervisor Bernie Bassett says the issue isn't just unique to the town or the city.. "I have to give credit to the Clinton County Legislature, for helping us by ultimately making us whole by assuming the amounts due on their tax roles." Bassett said. "If it's your neighborhood, if it's the house next door, you need it cleaned up because it won't stop there. That's where we've seen stories where it ends up another house, and then the whole street and then the hamlet and then you've got bigger problems."

Following up on his pledge in his State of the Union Address to "use my authority to protect more of our pristine federal lands for future generations" during this "year of action," President Obama today designated Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands as part of the California Coastal National Monument. The 1,665-acre nature preserve is located in Northern California along the scenic Mendocino County coast. This designation, which came in response to the local community's desire to
Although he initially supported the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, MSNBC host Ed Schultz has spent the past several weeks talking to climate change experts and landowners in Nebraska about what it would mean for our country. He delighted opponents of the dangerous pipeline this week when he announced that he has changed his mind, and now believes that it should not be approved.
LCV's own Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld was
There has been some exciting buzz swirling around recently about the future of renewable energy. We continue to see an increase in the amount of wind, solar and geothermal capabilities that we have at our disposal. This is great news as we attempt to break our dependence on dirty fossil fuels and move towards the clean energy economy of the future.
In January, renewable energy accounted for nearly 99 percent of all new electric capacity,
Next week, the House will likely take up the so-called Electricity Security and Affordability Act, which aims to block the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ability to place commonsense limits on carbon pollution from power plants. This is yet another sweeping attack on the environment from the radial leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives. It would also be a big win for corporate polluters and a loss for the American people by preventing President Obama
Since the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) released the 2013 National Environmental Scorecard earlier this week, many elected officials have been promoting their high scores and their commitment to protecting our environment and public health.
Senator Robert Menendez (NJ) tweeted:

Senator Jeanne Shaheen (NH) tweeted:
Representative Derek Kilmer (WA) tweeted:
Senator Martin Heinrich (NM) tweeted:
Representative Jim Himes (CT), who earned a 96 percent rating on the
The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) today released our 2013 National Environmental Scorecard, which allows you to see how your members of Congress voted on the year's key environmental issues. There is a shocking disconnect between the results of the Scorecard and the impacts of climate change that we are seeing right outside our windows—including stronger storms, more intense wildfires and longer droughts.
While President Obama was making significant progress on tackling the climate crisis,
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to testify at the Environmental Protection Agency's public hearing on their proposed regulations on carbon pollution for new power plants. This is a hugely important step forward in the fight against climate change and protecting our health. I, along with other LCV staff and several colleagues in the GreenLatinos coalition, testified in support of the rules. I was proud to represent the Latino LCV members I work with and raise
The State Department released the final environmental impact statement on the dangerous Keystone XL tar sands pipeline last week. We know that the Keystone XL pipeline would endanger water supplies, destroy forests, and worsen climate change at an intolerable rate. It's clear that this pipeline is not in our national interest and must be rejected.
The FEIS was just one step in a long process, and many of our biggest allies in Congress took

Meanwhile, over on Comedy Central, remote-controlled robots fight weekly in BattleBots, and Mark Pauline, who founded Survival Research Laboratories in 1978, says, "It's great because I get arbitrary amounts of publicity. I have like four or five TV spots I could do every month, literally." He just loves turning them down.
An aura of transgression and apocalypse has always surrounded SRL. Their "choreographed rituals of destruction" feature menacingly reimagined machines built from industrial detritusa Square-Wheeled Car, a sprinkler from hell,plus missile launchers, flamethrowers, and mechanically reanimated animal carcasses.
While SRL has not performed on the East Coast since their 1988 show in the Shea Stadium parking lot, they are still going strong. Eighty or 90 "super-skilled" people are currently involved, says Pauline. The tech boom brought lots of expertise to the Bay Area, where he lives. "Tonight I'm working on the world's first jet-powered remote-controlled hovercraft," he announces on the phone. SRL has also pioneered a way to control their lethal machines over the Internet.
BattleBots, with robots like The Mauler and Vlad the Impaler, tries to cop an SRL attitude. But Pauline says, "Everyone looks at BattleBots, and they go, 'Oh, this is like popcorn machines.' I mean, we get 8000 hits a day on our Web site [www.srl.org]. And they just see, 'Oh, SRL is the king.' "
Pauline makes a living buying and selling hi-tech equipment. He says BattleBots contacted him when they started, but, "I'd rather not be associated with them."
Couldn't he make more money working with them, though? Or with Robot Wars on MTV? "Why would I ever want to do that?" Pauline asks. "My reputation would be ruined. And you can't ever buy your reputation back. I have an example to set of being ungovernable."

Finding Your North Star
According to Jack, 2013
Opening Reception: October 19, 2013 5—7 p.m.
Sharon Weiner's abstract paintings emerge from a process of self-reflection and rigorous manipulation of paint. In her current series, Weiner trains acrylic paint into corporeal volumes that seem suspended in various states of motion or metamorphosis. The forms are set in nebulous or vast, inky spaces made up of layer upon layer of paint that is alternately brushed, poured and airbrushed onto her canvases.
The painterly forms in Weiner's work have a likeness to cosmic bursts, rushes of water or cellular functions; they congeal and splay out in fluid, directional drips that appear to cast a light from within. While the paintings assume a nature-like aspect, they are grounded in the non-physical realm of the artist's consciousness. The paintings, and the methods she employs to create them, represent a personal vocabulary that harnesses and translates her internal dialogue. Her process, which is akin to those employed by postwar American abstract painters, provides access into the psychological spaces on which her paintings are based. While her intuitive process aligns with her predecessors, the work is cast into present-day with their slick, finished surfaces.
"My paintings," Weiner states, "visualize the process of self-revelation in a kind of internal dialogue. My direct and indirect exposure to the practice of psychoanalysis through family members who are psychoanalysts has been long and sustained, providing me with an unusual awareness of my own consciousness, interaction with the world, and the meaning of my dreams. As a result, I know better than to recount my experience in my art; instead, I give visual form to what experiencing my life feels like – indeed, to what awareness itself, an abstract concept, feels like.

Get Well Soon: Stevie Nicks Is Too Sick To Play At Webster Hall Tomorrow
Tomorrow night's Stevie Nicks gig at Webster Hall, commemorating the release of her seventh solo album In Your Dreams, has been canceled because the legendarily witchy singer is suffering from pneumonia and the flu and has been instructed to "stay and bed and not fly" (quotes from the press release now up at Bowery Presents' site) until she's in better health. The above track, "Secret Love," is the lead single of the album, and it was apparently originally written all the way back in 1976; after the jump, some live Stevie of recent vintage, for those of you bummed out about this recent turn of events.

thank you for a wonderful stay. Everything was above our expectations. We especially appreciated the helpful tips about the area.You were knowledgeable and honest.
4,0 sur août 26, 2014
This B&B was very clean, excellent location, within walking distance to downtown shops and dining. The breakfasts were also very good. The only problem was that I am not used to paying over $2.00 per sq. ft. for a room. The shower room was laughable. The shower was 2.5 foot by 2,5 foot. The toilet area was the same size. With about the same size area to move in. So other than the room costing too much for what we got, in my opinion, the Harborage Inn was a very nice place.
Réponse du propriétaire
Thank you for your recent review and your very kind words regarding the rooms cleanliness, our downtown location and our gourmet, farm-fresh organic buffet breakfasts as we always appreciate our guests feedback. We are sorry that you found issues with your rooms bathroom. Please keep in mind that we do offer 3 different categories of accommodations when selecting a room for your budget & room size preference. You chose one of our 2 economical and typical b&b sized Standard King rooms (with the smaller bathroom explained in description) for guests seeking a lesser expensive option. These 2 rooms are over 250 sq' in size and their price never exceeds this so for accuracy it would be under $1 per sq'. All of our other 9 rooms (Deluxe & Luxury Oceanfront rooms) were recently added and built with all new construction. These 9 rooms have large bathrooms & are very spacious for a typical b&b -- these rooms are sized between 400 to 550 sq feet. We offer many different room sizes & prices at our Inn to accommodate our guest needs. We do recommend to our guests when making a reservation to keep these different room options in mind or call to speak with the Innkeeper to help find a room that will provide them with a most comfortable stay.

Friendly and hospitable hosts, clean and comfortable rooms, beautiful view, delicious food each morning, great advice on local attractions and restaurants, 10 minute walk to the middle of downtown....need I say more? If you need more coffee in your room, it appears there. If you need more towels, etc, they arrive in your room immediately. We have visited twice and I can't imagine staying anywhere else. Reasonably priced and worth every penny. You won't be disappointed.
4,4 sur mai 16, 2014
The double room suite we had was very nice, comfortable and clean. My daughter and I were extremely happy with the location, and even though the weather didn't cooperate all the time, we did everything we wanted to do and saw everything there we could. The hosts were charming and we would recommend this B&B very highly. Rated the dining low as this was the off season and no breakfast was available at the location, however, the host recommended a bakery 2 doors away which was outstanding for a low priced, but large portions, breakfast.

Excellent rooms, clean, well appointed. Close to downtown Boothbay Harbor for shopping, dining and boat tours. Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is nearby and shouldn't be missed. Breakfasts on the porch were fantastic. Ask Emery for the recipes.

Found the place on the internet. It looked like a good place to stay for our visit to Boothbay Harbor and I booked it. The Inn far exceeded our expectations- a delightful place to stay, well-kept, convenient. the staff friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are to die for. It made for a truly memorable visit to Boothbay Harbor. We will return.

The Harborage In Boothbay Harbor, Maine, is one of the best B&B/Inns we have stayed in - and definitely has the best breakfast meals. The rooms are lovely, with all amenities provided - and there is room to unpack and settle in. The chairs/tables on the decks facing the harbor are shaded and capture a nice breeze. The dock is new and the dock bench actually has an angled back so you can relax as you watch action in the harbor. The yard/gardens are lovely and well maintained. Owners Troy and Emery are gracious and helpful, and Innkeeper, Ren, is ever-ready to make us comfortable. The Harborage is close enough to town to easily walk for meals, shopping, harbor cruises - but far enough to feel the peace of a little distance. We're going back next month!

Maybe UCANN school ICANN on whois
Raise your hand if you use whois every day. Even if your hand isn't up, and you just regard whois as an essential sysadmin tool, this post is for you.
Because if you're interested in keeping whois working for the those it was made for in the first place, you need to visit the battlefield where whois' future is being determined right now. That is, you must be Beowulf to the Grendel that is the Intellectual Property Community. Worse, you must confront him in the vast cave that is ICANN.
Except ICANN is more like Grendel's cave, only a helluva lot bigger, and far more boring. It's easy for an outsider to be daunted by ICANN's labyrinthine bureaucracy, its complex processes, its mountain of documents, the galactic scale of its influence, the ecclesiology of its high-level gatherings and its near-countless topics of concern. The relatively small topic what happens to whois would be easy to miss. For example, it's not even listed among the many current topics on ICANN's top-level topics page.
Ah, but it's there, amidst the 25,500 results in a whois topic search at the ICANN site. Among those results is a complicated Public Comments page, where it says, as if recited by Vogons,
ICANN is currently soliciting Public Comments until 30 October, 2007 on the most recent GNSO WHOIS Task Force and Working Group Reports, recommendations, and related Staff Overview of Recent GNSO Whois Activity and Staff Implementation Notes on the WHOIS Working Group Report. An overview and links to all related WHOIS documents currently available for comment can be found at: http://www.icann.org/public_comment/#whois-comments-2007
What matters are the date, which I've highlighted in red, and the link. Also this link, buried somewhere else I can't find again. It's for FINAL TASK FORCE REPORT ON WHOIS SERVICES 12 March 2007.
More scary than those are the comments themselves, which are thick with IP lawyers inveighing on behalf of something called Motion 2. This, along with two other Motions, can be found on page 9 of STAFF OVERVIEW OF RECENT GNSO WHOIS ACTIVITIES., a .pdf linked to by the document in the link of the quoted text above, prefixed by the ominous adjective "final".
Motions 1and 3, best as I can tell, call for minimal action.
Motion 2 calls for a complicated process that is obviously given the uniform enthusiasm of IP lawyer advocacy of it in public comments aimed toward turning whois into a whatis that is quite other than what it was intended for in the first place.
Elliot Noss, CEO of Tucows and an ICANN veteran of long standing, put the situation this way :
Whois started out as a way for geeks to know who to speak to, so they could manage domain name issues. This was way back when there weren't many domains around. More recently it has turned into an enforcement resource for intellectual property crime hunters. Meanwhile, as everybody knows, whois does have privacy problems, in that names and other personal information about contacts can be revealed through it.
So, at the end of the day, what everybody has been trying to do is move toward an operational point of contact, which is all somebody managing domain names needs to know. From the geek point of view, this is a way to move whois back to what it was in the first place, which was a way to manage an Internet resource.
But the intellectual property folks see whois as their enforcement database, and are working toward making that its primary purpose. Those two purposes are at odds, and that's what the debate is all about. Except so far the public comments have come mostly from just one side.
So, if you want to weigh in on this debate, to fight the suited Grendels in ICANN's cave, you have until a day before Halloween to go do that.
How, you ask? Meaning, where do you submit comments? I don't know. I'm looking around and I'm missing it. Meanwhile, I have a bus to catch, and I want to post this as soon as I can. If one of ya'll figures out how, post it in the comments below, and I'll append it here after I get to where I'm going.
Okay, the ansswer is here: email@example.com. Comment away.
[Later...] Wendy Seltzer has posted WHOIS redux: Demand privacy in domain name registration, in response to this post. Joe Andrieu has posted an open comment as well.
I've also learned that CircleID has a huge repository of whois-related intelligence.
By the way, a number of people (including Wendy and Elliot, quoted above) have told me their comments to this post are meeting some kind of obstacle. My apologies. We're working on that. [Later...] Okay, it's fixed now.

Whois comments
Doc thanks for the article. I digged through the info at Icann to post some comments. Sometimes I use whois to see who actually using domain so yes its nice to know something more than an IP or email address. But how much info should be revealed. Thats the big question.
Thanks Doc! (hyperlinked, this time)
I've added my comments and call to action.
Submitting comments to ICANN - I think...
At the bottom of http://www.icann.org/public_comment/#whois-comments-2007 there's an "add comment" mailto: link to email@example.com - that appears to be the best "submit here" that I've found thus far. I have to finish reading before I write in, however.

Mitt Romney has a number of meetings Thursday with British officials, including Prime Minister David Cameron and former PM Tony Blair.
"I've got a number of conversations with leaders present and past of Great Britain," Romney said Thursday, "and recognize of course the unique relationship that exists between our nations, our commitment to common values, our commitment to peace in the world and a desire to see a stronger and growing economy."
Romney also has fundraisers scheduled on London, and on Friday he'll meet with Irish Taoiseach Enda Kenny and attend the London 2012 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony.
[Get updates on Romney's trip by following Yahoo's Holly Bailey @hollybdc]
First lady Michelle Obama also will be in London on Thursday. She arrives in the evening at the head of the presidential delegation to the opening ceremony.
President Barack Obama is taking a break from campaigning after a three-day swing that ended Wednesday evening with a speech before the National Urban League in New Orleans. It looks like the main thing on his schedule Thursday is a cabinet meeting in the afternoon.
Also worth noting on Thursday: The House is expected to pass a resolution condemning the Aurora, Colo., shootings; Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal campaign in Iowa for Romney; Sen. John Thune campaigns for him in Virginia; Rudy Giuliani does the same in Florida; and House Democrats host a Twitter Town Hall on preventing a tax hike on middle-class families.
And then there is this: Thursday is the third anniversary of Sarah Palin resigning as Alaska Governor more than a year before her term was due to end.

Springatron 3000: Reverb Made From Slinkys and Cucumbers
Nick of Nick's World of Synthesizers decided to build a spring reverberator ... out of Slinky and cucumber! Here's the Springatron 3000:
This is basically a giant spring reverb made from 10 slinkys. I was trying to make the best sounding spring reverb possible, I think I achieved this but it is probably the most inconvenient spring reverb ever made. The reverb time (sustain) is so long that the springs need damping and I found that the best material for doing this is a slice of cucumber wedged under the end of each spring, other materials like foam or rubber tend to kill all the treble.
Newest 4 Comments
Many years ago I made a reverb out of a spring from a roller blind, a speaker to drive the spring, and a WWII earphone as a microphone. Powered from a couple of home-brew tube amps. Sounded pretty good, even if it wasn't very portable!
Clever...the horror clip is my fav.
Awesome! Sounds like a horror movie sound track. It actually creeped me out.
The video didn't load for me
