SMSZombie Cleaner
SMSZombie Cleaner is not a replacement for a security app such as Trend Micro Mobile Security Personal Edition. It is a fast response application provided to help users immediately remove this new Trojan application.
The SMSZombie Trojan usually comes as part of Android wallpapers, it hides itself in the phone and takes control of a device's SMS functionality. It can send, forward, and delete SMS messages. In particular it targets China Mobile subscribers.
Trend Micro has been leading the way in virus detection and removal for over 20 years, we are committed to protecting users on Android devices as new threats emerge.
Detailed Overview:
What makes this Trojan more troubling for users is the fact that this malware is difficult to uninstall.
Using Android's own uninstall function simply redirects the user to their home screen, without an opportunity to select the app to be uninstalled. Even if a third-party app is used in an attempt to uninstall the Trojan, it can't be removed because it's still active as a device administrator. If the user pushes through with the attempt to deactivate it as an administrator, the Trojan will say that deactivating it will cause system errors. If the user deactivates it, the Trojan will keep prompting the user to reactivate it again.
Trend Micro Mobile Security Personal Edition can detect the SMSZombie Trojan however this tool is required to delete it.
Here are the steps you need to perform to manually uninstall this malware:
1. First of all, uninstall the wrapper wallpaper app.
2. Use a third-party app to terminate android.phone.com.
3. Deactivate the Trojan from being a device administrator. Ignore any warnings by pressing the home button.
4. Terminate android.phone.com again.
5. Uninstall the Trojan normally.
Alternatively, just install SMSZombie Cleaner from Trend Micro

Consider the following scenario:
This occurs because SSIS incorrectly calls "SET ROWCOUNT 1" on the session that is executing the INSERT AFTER trigger. This causes the trigger to prematurely stop execution after it inserts the first row.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section of this article when you apply the fix documented in 975950. This hotfix is also included in the following updates:
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;976951)So, the issue affects any builds of the respective product that contain this fix. You can use the following table as quick reference:
Collapse this tableExpand this table
To workaround the problem do the following in the OLE DB Destination editor:
For additional information refer to the following topic in SQL Server Books Online:
Example: The following trigger uses UNION clause to inserts multiple rows in the destination table (MyTable)
Because of the problem discussed in this article, when an SSIS package inserts any row into the table, the trigger only inserts the first row (7,7) and stops execution instead of inserting 3 rows.

It is so difficult to give up the hope for an amicable divorce. We are both adults. There is no substance abuse issues. We are both employed, etc. But he has decided to make it as "difficult as possible".
And plans to run up huge attorney bills because we are going to be "financially ruined so we might as well be in debt too".
Yes, I am the one who filed for divorce. Yes, I understand that it is a very painful time for him.
But I filed the end of May. It's been three months. He decides to FINALLY hire and attorney and ask for a continuance 4 days before the court date. He is going to change his mind on EVERY single item on the provisional agreement that I already paid MY attorney to prepare and file and that he willingly signed.
It's been three months and he still refuses to move out of the house that he has repeatedly stated he doesn't want and cannot afford to keep.
He sends me multiple text messages/emails every day about how I'm ruining his life, the kids life, etc. He goes through all of my personal belongings including journals, computer history etc. If he doesn't know where I am, he calls my family to find me. He's convinced I am having an affair and tells other people that I am.
It just sucks.
Mama to three crazy kids and one crazier dog.
Sounds you like are approaching this practically while he is approaching it emotionally, using the legal process to kick and scream. Which absolutely does suck. My STBX has been doing some of the same things-- taking issue with details that he already agreed to, playing the victim with friends and family (which is priceless, because this is a DV case and I am literally the victim). It is the last bit of control and power that he has over me. It is frustrating and expensive (sigh) also really validating. Through this process he is giving you more information about who he is-- even more than you had three months ago-- and has any of it caused you to doubt your decision?
That part is a gift.
and then when we get to the ocean
we're gonna take a boat to the end of the world
I felt the same way at one point as sren. My ex and I kept agreeing and then he would ask for something new and we would go back to square one.
It does help me get over any guilt/doubt issues very quickly!
I just keep trying to remind myself that it can't last forever.
He does the victim thing too. He has contacted every single family member with whom I am close---and has now moved on to ones I never discuss personal issues with like my step-sister's husband Thank goodness, he is almost out of people. Guess the next step is family members who I haven't talked to in years. (I have a big family.)
Mama to three crazy kids and one crazier dog.
sucks and blows.
8 might be enough?
Or maybe 9 will be?
EDD September 18, 2015
Oh fun... I originally filed for divorce 2 years ago and although mine agreed to everything and signed he wouldn't give me the paperwork I needed to finalize it. I let him choose the child support and visitation and property agreement and yet he didn't want the divorce so he withheld all the documentation and made life difficult. I'm going to refile (since it got dismissed after all this time) in about a week and will hopefully get the divorce this time. It took some time checking out the rules to find a way around it all but I don't think he'll be able to stop me this time.
Michelle mom to DD , DS , & lil DD and spending my days
Oh and mine did the whole getting involved in my life thing too. He started coming out where I work all the time (I bartend and when we were married he hardly ever wanted to step foot in the place... not his scene) and going out with an old friend of mine. He also called or texted all the time and would sometimes just show up on my doorstep since I moved out. He ran around telling people how I was wrong for leaving him that all he did was work hard to take care of me and the kids and I was screwing him over too. Um... I left you the house property household items and all. Got my own place with all new stuff on my own and left because you were cheating and that working hard thing? Then why did I have to work 2 jobs to help take care of it all so that you could keep the job you 'wanted' making nothing. Hm.... okay sure buddy. Gotta love divorces.
Michelle mom to DD , DS , & lil DD and spending my days
Keep the text messages, print them out if possible, and document EVERYTHING.
you would think the abusers would grow tired of it all.
the bar was on the ground, stbx is now excavating.
8 might be enough?
Or maybe 9 will be?

He knows it's there. He raised it. I saw the show about them. Granted, it was about not keeping wild animals as pets and the damage they can do, but the owners know he's clawed tunnels through their house and they let him.

12 of 12 reviewers would recommend this product to a friend.

Pretty jacket -
By: Nancy1951 from Kalamazoo, Mi
Nice jacket, size 12 fits good. Normally a 12-14 in tops, a good fit, could have more shoulder room, but I have wide shoulders. Coordinates with the elbow sleeve pink silk sweater, good combination.
Great Choice -
By: Rosette from South Carolina
Traveling at lot for work and this is a great addition to my wardrobe.
Fabulous Blazer -
By: LovesWinter from Mahwah, NJ
Great color - great fabric - can't wait till Spring to wear it!
Beautiful Jacket -
By: EST60 from RI
I have tried and returned several jackets at other companies. I am short waisted, with wider hips than bust. This one finally fit well -- comfortable and elegantly fitted. The texture of the material is aesthetically pleasing and the buttons are elegant. It is a new work jacket for me, over a white tshirt and black pants. One caution: sizing in catalogue was not the same as the phone salesperson explained, so do call to clarify which size fits your measurements. Very happy I did.
Classic style -
By: Anneinthenorth from SK, Canada
Classic style, well tailored. I have this jacket in wool & was pleased to find it in a lighter silk blend.
A Classic -
By: Kant from Philadelphia, PA
I bought the magenta. The color is vibrant and the fit is perfect, not too big and not too tight. The buttons are attractive also. It would work with different color pants, such as black, grey,or beige.
Spring value -
By: Pinhead from Highland Scotland
Lovely fit on this boxy lightweight jacket. Colour just right for brightening up your wardrobe in Spring
Perfect spring jacket -
By: Kdeane
I was looking for a jacket that serve multiple purposes. This jacket is perfect - it can be dressed up for special occasions, or dressed down with jeans for casual wear. I expect to see it my closet for many years as it takes on many roles.
Much-needed replacement -
By: seachange from Boothbay Harbor, ME
The color is a little less vibrant than I expected, but this jacket fits well and is very wearable, whether for casual or more dressy purposes. The price seems a bit high.

OK, I'll take the bait.
Even though I do know better and have tons of good gear (Aerostich Darien, several Arai FFs, Motoport Kevlar, leather track gear, etc...) I have to admit that I REALLY enjoy riding without a helmet. I'll even ride over to MT and ID solely for the purpose of riding sans helmet.
I have no idea why but riding without a helmet really floats my boat and is that much more fun than riding with. I ride half helmet where legally required but I'll stop aat the border and take even my haldf helmet off. And it's not that I want to be a risk taker, I just really enjoy riding that much more without a helmet.
On my K1100RS I always ride with a FF because it's a full on wind blast.
I wouldn't say that I purposefully ride riskier with a helmet but I do ride less riskier riding without a helmet. I know that I'm more exposed and I ride slower because I have no absolutely desire to take a bird strike without a FF on. I remember one day doing "a good clip" along Lake Roosevelt in AZ w/o a helmet and though I really didn't get that close, one bird was close enough to make me reoconsider how fast I ride w/o a helmet so when I ride w/o a helmet it's more about the ride vs. the riding and I do take it easier.
And even though I don't always have a helemt on, I always have at least Draggin Jean and a good leather mesh jacket. ATGATT from the neck down.

ROSEMONT, Ill.---The Chicago Wolves scored two goals in a span of 1:38 late in the second period to rally from a 2-1 deficit and pick up their sixth straight win on home ice, 3-2, over the Grand Rapids Griffins at the Allstate Arena Wednesday night.
Wolves forwards Tim Stapleton and Brett Sterling each tallied their third goal in the last three games, while Chicago's captain Jason Krog added the club's other marker and an assist.
Chicago goaltender Peter Mannino (3-0-0) thwarted 25 shots to earn his third win in a Wolves uniform, and has held opponents to two or fewer goals in each of his three starts this season.
"Our goaltending has been really solid and our power play has been coming up with some goals," said Wolves Head Coach Don Lever. "When we're skating, we are a very tough team to play against in our own building. We are slowly climbing up the ladder."
Stapleton opened scoring for Chicago (11-8-0-1) with a power-play tally, 4:14 into the contest. Nathan Oystrick worked the puck in from the blue line to Krog, who slipped it across the ice for Stapleton to flick past Griffins netminder Daniel Larsson.
Left wing Tomas Tatar evened the score for Grand Rapids (12-6-0-0), 1-1, 9:41 into the first frame when he drove in towards Chicago's net and pushed a shot at Mannino, which dribbled under his pads and over the line.
Cory Emmerton helped the Griffins inch ahead, 2-1, at 7:28 of the second frame. John Vigilante took a long shot, which Mannino stopped, but coughed up a rebound right to a streaking Emmerton, who banged it to the back of the net.
Krog knotted the score again, 2-2, when he took a pass from right wing Spencer Machacek as he flew towards the net and ripped it past Larsson, stick side, at 17:56 of the second period.
Chicago made it 3-2 with 26 seconds remaining in the middle frame when defenseman Grant Lewis took a shot, which Larsson stopped but the rebound eluded him, enabling Sterling to slip in behind him and tipped it over the goal line.
Larsson (7-3-0) turned aside 27 shots for the Griffins.
The Wolves return from the Thanksgiving break to host the Abbotsford Heat to the Allstate Arena on Friday at 7:30 p.m.
Grand Rapids 1 1 0 -- 2
Chicago 1 2 0 -- 3
First Period---1, Chicago, Stapleton 11 (Krog, Oystrick), 4:14 pp; 2, Grand Rapids, Tatar 3 (Mursak, Rissmiller), 9:41. Penalties---Tatar, Grand Rapids (tripping), 3:35.
Second Period---3, Grand Rapids, Emmerton 5 (Vigilante, Kolosov), 7:28; 4, Chicago, Krog 4 (Machacek, Pohl), 17:56; 5, Chicago, Sterling 9 (Lewis), 19:34. Penalties---Crosty, Grand Rapids (holding), 3:09; Newbury, Grand Rapids (hooking), 8:33.
Third Period---None. Penalties---Janik, Grand Rapids (holding), 1:01; Crabb, Chicago (hooking), 10:42.
Shots on goal---Grand Rapids: 10-8-9--27. Chicago: 10-10-10--30. Power plays---Grand Rapids: 0-1. Chicago: 1-4. Goalies---Grand Rapids, Larsson (27-30). Chicago, Mannino (25-27). A---4,036. Referee---Keith Kaval. Linesmen---Brian Oliver and Al Stensland.

Minkowski space
|Part of a series on
|Special relativity
In mathematical physics, Minkowski space, Minkowski spacetime (named after the mathematician Hermann Minkowski), or flat spacetime, is the mathematical space setting in which Einstein's theory of special relativity is most conveniently formulated. In this setting the three ordinary dimensions of space are combined with a single dimension of time to form a four-dimensional manifold for representing a spacetime.
In theoretical physics, Minkowski space is often contrasted with Euclidean space. While a Euclidean space has only spacelike dimensions, a Minkowski space also has one timelike dimension. The isometry group of a Euclidean space equipped with the regular inner product is the Euclidean group, and for a Minkowski space equipped with the Minkowski tensor it is the Poincaré group.
The spacetime interval between two events in Minkowski space is either spacelike, lightlike (null) or timelike.
In 1905, with the publication in 1906, it was noted by Henri Poincaré that, by taking time to be the imaginary part of the fourth spacetime coordinate √−1 c t, a Lorentz transformation can be regarded as a rotation of coordinates in a four-dimensional Euclidean space with three real coordinates representing space, and one imaginary coordinate, representing time, as the fourth dimension. Since the space is then a pseudo-Euclidean space, the rotation is a representation of a hyperbolic rotation, although Poincaré did not give this interpretation, his purpose being only to explain the Lorentz transformation in terms of the familiar Euclidean rotation.[1] This idea was elaborated by Hermann Minkowski,[2] who used it to restate the Maxwell equations in four dimensions, showing directly their invariance under the Lorentz transformation. He further reformulated in four dimensions the then-recent theory of special relativity of Einstein. From this he concluded that time and space should be treated equally, and so arose his concept of events taking place in a unified four-dimensional space-time continuum. In a further development,[3] he gave an alternative formulation of this idea that did not use the imaginary time coordinate, but represented the four variables (x, y, z, t) of space and time in coordinate form in a four dimensional affine space. Points in this space correspond to events in space-time. In this space, there is a defined light-cone associated with each point (see diagram above), and events not on the light-cone are classified by their relation to the apex as spacelike or timelike. It is principally this view of space-time that is current nowadays, although the older view involving imaginary time has also influenced special relativity. Minkowski, aware of the fundamental restatement of the theory which he had made, said:
The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality.—Hermann Minkowski, 1908[3]
For further historical information see references Galison (1979), Corry (1997), Walter (1999).
Formally, Minkowski space is a four-dimensional real vector space equipped with a nondegenerate, symmetric bilinear form with signature (−,+,+,+) (Some may also prefer the alternative signature (+,−,−,−); in general, mathematicians and general relativists prefer the former while particle physicists tend to use the latter.) In other words, Minkowski space is a pseudo-Euclidean space with n = 4 and n − k = 1 (in a broader definition any n > 1 is allowed). Elements of Minkowski space are called events or four-vectors. Minkowski space is often denoted R1,3 to emphasize the signature, although it is also denoted M4 or simply M. It is perhaps the simplest example of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold.
Compared to the more general concept of spacetime in general relativity, where a Lorentzian manifold M is equipped with a metric tensor g, which is a symmetric bilinear form on each tangent space, the Minkowski space is the relatively simple special case where every tangent space is the space itself, and its metric tensor, called the Minkowski tensor η, is a single symmetric bilinear form. See also below.
Minkowski tensor[edit]
The Minkowski tensor[4] is the metric tensor of Minkowski space. It is a symmetric bilinear form (type-(0,2) tensor) similar to the Euclidean inner product, but it is used to describe a different geometry; the geometry is usually associated with relativity. Let M be a 4-dimensional real vector space. The Minkowski tensor is a map η : M × M → R (i.e. given any two vectors v, w in M, η(v,w) is a real number, called the magnitude of the vector) which satisfies properties (1), (2), and (3) listed here, as well as property (4) given below:
1. bilinear η(au+v, w) = aη(u,w) + η(v,w)
for all a ∈ R and u, v, w in M.
2. symmetric η(v,w) = η(w,v)
for all v, w ∈ M.
3. nondegenerate if η(v,w) = 0 for all w ∈ M then v = 0.
Just as in Euclidean space, two vectors v and w are said to be orthogonal if η(v,w) = 0. Minkowski space differs by including hyperbolic-orthogonal events in case v and w span a plane where η takes negative values. This difference is clarified by comparing the Euclidean structure of the ordinary complex number plane to the structure of the plane of split-complex numbers.
The Minkowski norm of a vector v is defined by
This is not a norm (and not even a seminorm) in the usual sense because it fails to be subadditive,[5] but it does define a useful generalization of the notion of length to Minkowski space. In particular, a vector v is called a unit vector if ||v|| = 1 (i.e., η(v,v) = ±1). A basis for M consisting of mutually orthogonal unit vectors is called an orthonormal basis.
For a given inertial frame, an orthonormal basis in space, combined by the unit time vector, forms an orthonormal basis in Minkowski space. Furthermore, the number of positive and negative unit vectors in any such basis is a fixed pair of numbers, equal to the signature of the tensor. This is Sylvester's law of inertia.
Then the fourth condition on η can be stated:
4. signature The bilinear form η has signature (−,+,+,+) or (+,−,−,−).
Which signature is used is a matter of convention. Both are fairly common. See sign convention.
The magnitude of the difference between two vectors is called the spacetime interval.
Standard basis[edit]
A standard basis for Minkowski space is a set of four mutually orthogonal vectors { e0, e1, e2, e3 } such that
These conditions can be written compactly in the following form:
where μ and ν run over the values 0, 1, 2, 3 and the matrix [ημν] is given by
- .
(As was previously noted, sometimes the opposite sign convention is preferred.)
Relative to a standard basis, the components of a vector v are written (v0, v1, v2, v3) and we use the Einstein notation to write v = vμeμ. The component v0 is called the timelike component of v while the other three components are called the spatial components.
In terms of components, the inner product between two vectors v and w is given by
- (magnitude of v)
Alternative definition[edit]
The section above defines Minkowski space as a vector space. There is an alternative definition of Minkowski space as an affine space which views Minkowski space as a homogeneous space of the Poincaré group with the Lorentz group as the stabilizer. See Erlangen program.
Note also that the term "Minkowski space" is also used for analogues in any dimension: if n ≥ 2, n-dimensional Minkowski space is a vector space or affine space of real dimension n on which there is a pseudo-Riemannian metric of signature (n − 1, 1), i.e., in the above terminology, n − 1 "pluses" and one "minus".
Lorentz transformations and symmetry[edit]
An isometry is a linear bijection preserving magnitude (this property of preserving magnitude is called Lorentz invariance). The Poincaré group is the group of all isometries, including boosts, rotations, and translations. The Lorentz group is the subgroup which leave the origin fixed and includes the boosts and rotations; members of this subgroup are called Lorentz transformations. Among the simplest Lorentz transformations is a Lorentz boost. The archetypal Lorentz boost is
is the Lorentz factor, and
All four-vectors in Minkowski space transform according to the same formula under Lorentz transformations. Minkowski diagrams illustrate Lorentz transformations.
Causal structure[edit]
Vectors are classified according to the sign of η(v,v), the magnitude of v. When the standard signature (−,+,+,+) is used, a vector v is:
Timelike if η(v,v) < 0 Spacelike if η(v,v) > 0 Null (or lightlike) if η(v,v) = 0
This terminology comes from the use of Minkowski space in the theory of relativity. The set of all null vectors at an event of Minkowski space constitutes the light cone of that event. Note that all these notions are independent of the frame of reference. Given a timelike vector v, there is a worldline of constant velocity associated with it. The set {w : η(w,v) = 0 } corresponds to the simultaneous hyperplane at the origin of this worldline. Minkowski space exhibits relativity of simultaneity since this hyperplane depends on v. In the plane spanned by v and such a w in the hyperplane, the relation of w to v is hyperbolic-orthogonal.
Once a direction of time is chosen, timelike and null vectors can be further decomposed into various classes. For timelike vectors we have
- future-directed timelike vectors whose first component is positive, and
- past-directed timelike vectors whose first component is negative.
Null vectors fall into three classes:
- the zero vector, whose components in any basis are (0,0,0,0),
- future-directed null vectors whose first component is positive, and
- past-directed null vectors whose first component is negative.
Together with spacelike vectors there are 6 classes in all.
An orthonormal basis for Minkowski space necessarily consists of one timelike and three spacelike unit vectors. If one wishes to work with non-orthonormal bases it is possible to have other combinations of vectors. For example, one can easily construct a (non-orthonormal) basis consisting entirely of null vectors, called a null basis. Over the reals, if two null vectors are orthogonal (zero Minkowski tensor value), then they must be proportional. However, allowing complex numbers, one can obtain a null tetrad, which is a basis consisting of null vectors, some of which are orthogonal to each other.
Vector fields are called timelike, spacelike or null if the associated vectors are timelike, spacelike or null at each point where the field is defined.
Causality relations[edit]
Let x, y ∈ M. We say that
- x chronologically precedes y if y − x is future-directed timelike.
- x causally precedes y if y − x is future-directed null or future-directed timelike

Relation to gravity
If v and w are both future-directed timelike four-vectors, then
Locally flat spacetime[edit]
Strictly speaking, the use of the Minkowski space to describe physical systems over finite distances applies only in systems without significant gravitation. In the case of significant gravitation, spacetime becomes curved and one must abandon special relativity in favor of the full theory of general relativity.
Nevertheless, even in such cases, Minkowski space is still a good description in an infinitesimal region surrounding any point (barring gravitational singularities). More abstractly, we say that in the presence of gravity spacetime is described by a curved 4-dimensional manifold for which the tangent space to any point is a 4-dimensional Minkowski space. Thus, the structure of Minkowski space is still essential in the description of general relativity.
In the realm of weak gravity, spacetime becomes flat and looks globally, not just locally, like Minkowski space. For this reason Minkowski space is often referred to as flat spacetime.

Journal: Scalable Behavior
An excerpt from an AIM conversation with a friend. I dunno if i should take this seriously or not.
Me (3:24:55 AM): what do you think of scalable behavior?
Gabi (3:25:14 AM): Eh?
Me (3:25:22 AM): to decide if something is bad, you surmise "what if everybody did ______?"
Me (3:25:29 AM): if the result of that question is negative, said behavior is worng
Me (3:25:31 AM): wrong
Me (3:25:43 AM): if result of that question is either indifferent or positive, said behavior is acceptable
Me (3:25:48 AM): for instance
Me (3:26:00 AM): what if everyone looted?
Me (3:26:30 AM): obviously, if everyone looted shops wouldn't be able to stay open. commerce would crumble and nobody would be able to buy what they need. Result is negative, so looting is not a scalable behavior...
Gabi (3:27:04 AM): That's a good way to think about it, I guess.
Me (3:27:16 AM): now let's take it further
Me (3:27:50 AM): "what if everyone drank milk?" all assumptions about lactose inolerance/allergies aside, everyone would be healthier, have stronger bones, and the dairy industry would make more money and the economy would benefit
Me (3:28:07 AM): so drinking milk IS a scalable behavoir, as the result is positive.
Me (3:28:09 AM): Now...what about pirating music?
Me (3:28:16 AM): "what if everyone pirated music..."
Me (3:28:19 AM): heh heh heh
Gabi (3:28:50 AM): Well that's one of those "I say it's good" things.
Gabi (3:29:10 AM): Because I don't have enough money to buy all the music I want.
Gabi (3:29:17 AM): BUT
Gabi (3:29:36 AM): If/when I DO have money, and I like a certain music thing, I will buy it.
Gabi (3:29:59 AM): Just because I want the original thing.
Me (3:30:02 AM): we were talking about scalable behavior, not self interest. bear with me.
Me (3:30:12 AM): What if everone pirated music?
Me (3:30:23 AM): well, first, record companies would make NO money at all
Me (3:30:31 AM): so that means the RIAA would crumble...
Me (3:30:44 AM): the RIAA is responsible for most DRM and the evaporation of fair use rights, so this is actually a good thing
Me (3:31:42 AM): No longer plagued with pandering to the mass market, musicians would create real art instead of the drivel they usually make. Subsequently, such good music would create huge turnouts at concerts and sales of the individual artists' swag, cds, and what have you...causing the artists to produce good, real artist's music, and still make enough to live comfortably.
Me (3:31:54 AM): therefore, pirating music IS a scalable behavior, and is acceptible.
Gabi (3:32:08 AM): Yay!
Funny? a Troll? Flamebait? Insightful? I really dunno. Post a comment and let me know what you think.
Journal: EPIA has arrived!
