2012 NHL Entry Draft | Jun 22 | 7:00p | 4th Pick

Looking forward to the draft, we are in a good spot and in Garth I trust! After much of my own limited research this is the way I see it.
Most Likely Yakupov, Forsberg, and Murray are gone if not Grab whoever is still around at 4 and consider it a gift.
Personally, again based on limited knowledge, I would take RIELY at pick 4 I feel when it is all said and done and you look back at this draft he (next to Murray) will be the best defenseman of the bunch.
I honestly could see us taken Riely, Dumba, Reinhart, Galchenyuk or Teravainen in this spot given are past history at the draft it is rather wide open who Snow would rate highest.
I would be surprise but not totally unhappy with Trouba, or Grigorenko
Anyone else in my mind would be hard to justify, I am confident that one of the above players will be Islanders at the end of today and that makes today a pretty good day!
Enjoy the draft!

text: Justin Lacewing Justin Machiels Sittard-Geleen, Netherlands BIOGRAPHY JUSTIN LACEWING Justin Machiels, better known as Justin Lacewing, is an upcoming artist in the music scene. A DJ with the sound of a new generation. At the age of 14 Justin Lacewing already has a lot of experience in DJ-ing and producing music. With already 2 songs of his own, some hot mixes and many more music to come, we are very curious how this young man will develop his own style. It wasn't until August 2012 till Justin started being a serious DJ and producer. He noticed music was his real passion. A month later he released his first self produced track called ''Rising up''. This was actually a progressive house project. He also released his first progressive/electro house remix of the world famous single ''I Could Be The One'' by Nicky Romero and Avicii. Edits of various tracks were also made in the same year. Some edits made by Justin Lacewing are: Hardwell & Showtek vs. Zedd - How We Do A Spectrum, Hardwell vs. SHM & Laidback Luke ft. Deborah Cox - Leave The Spaceman Behind en Jay-Z & Kanye West vs. Bingo Players - Rattle in Paris. So far the year 2013 has been an ongoing success for Justin. His name is now well known by the local public.He spun the records at well known venues like: 'Fenix Sittard', where he played an opening DJ set for famous rapper 'Kleine Viezerik'. He also played a set at 'Ramblas Maastricht', 'Café Match Eindhoven' for Kingsday 2013, 'Naar Huis Heerlen' and many more. In the month of April he made it till the half finals of the Groove Garden Festival DJ contest, but ended up at second place. This is not going to hold him back, as Justin said himself: ''One day I WILL be playing at Groove Garden Festival''. 2013 was also the year where Justin Lacewing found his own style in tech and deep house. ''I like progressive house music, but tech and deep house is what I really want to play and produce'' said Justin. With his always energetic and fun DJ sets and productions, you're guaranteed to dance like you've never danced before and have an unforgettable night. Don't forget Justin is still very young and being on the great level he is now with his music, the future is very bright for this young man.

July 28, 2015 - I simply love these bowls. They are just the right size for soup, ice cream or snacks and have a beautiful design. I just wish I had ordered 8 rather than 4. I'll need to place another order when they are back in stock.
June 6, 2015 - These bowls are beautiful. Can use daily and are dishwasher safe!
May 1, 2015 - These bowl are very beautiful and just the right size for desserts and soups. I had to order another because I broke one while washing. It fell onto the hard ceramic sink. I almost cried.
March 2, 2015 - I love these bowls. I ordered 4 and when I got them I was in love with them. Perfect! I got the spoons too!

No wonder this will be $15.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Before $10 AH drop the foward P/E is under 9. I'm not saying this is a screaming buy now but based on the percentage of the miss 35% seems a bit overdone. We will see how this shakes out Thursday. How stupid are these guys to pre-announce on such a bad day? Based on execution problems maybe it's time for some of the execs to go maybe 35% of them.
That's the trailing PE. Forward PE is the same as AAPL's. The selloff is a gift. Note to self: thank you for putting PAY on your watch list; don't buy it tomorrow, but buy it!
looked closely at the company and realized how wrong I was. I bought in ah at 21.42. Will just hold it for 8 months or so.
Sentiment: Strong Buy

Review for Boys & Girls Club Of Carteret County, Inc., Morehead City, NC, USA
As a single mom it is important for me to have a secure place where my 10 & 12 year old daughters can go after school. I appreciate Mr. James and his staff for providing this place. My children are learning all sorts of valuable life lessons while there. They learn respect - respect others and themselves. There are also lots of opportunities available to them; although they don't always take advantage of them. I am so interested in this Club succeeding that I have gotten involved. The Club is a great place.

A few good reasons Renaldo Balkman isn't playing in Denver
Dec 7, 2010, 4:49 PM EDT
The Denver Nuggets have been desperate for front court help this season, looking for some support from anywhere while they waited for the recently returned Chris Anderson and the not-yet-back Kenyon Martin to get right.
Yet there sat Renaldo Balkman, the forward and former first round pick of the Knicks, barely able to get off the bench. Why is that? Denver Post Nuggets writer pulled no punches.
He hasn't been giving it his all at practice. His focus has been wishy-washy. I've been told he doesn't know all the plays and he doesn't always make the best decisions on the court. And so, it's understandable why other guys are getting more playing time (or, well — playing time in general).
Balkman is in his third season in Denver and he can't get the plays right? Damn.
Balkman has played 14 minutes total in the two games he has gotten into this season for the Nuggets. Probably shouldn't draft him on your fantasy team at this point.

Ironically, Senator John McCain -- one of the country's most hawkish congressional lawmakers -- said Wednesday that he wouldn't support the president's Syrian resolution if it's "doomed to failure in the long run" (via Mediaite):
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
McCain said it's a "tough call" to do either nothing or a limited series of air strikes that fail to fully neutralize Bashar al-Assad's military capabilities. In either case, he argues, this allows Assad and Co. to inevitably use chemical weapons again if they wish on their own people. He obviously wants to commit more U.S. resources and weapons to the region to preempt this from happening. But the problem, he insists, is that the president has backed himself into an impossible corner. Two years ago he said that the maniacal dictator must go; one year ago he said if Assad uses chemical weapons -- and crosses the much-publicized "red line" -- the United States would act. Now, however, the president is maintaining that he never even issued a red line threat to the Assad regime in the first place. What? This sort of incoherence and blame-shifting on the world stage is making this administration look exceedingly weak and incompetent. And Iran and other hostile nations are watching.
McCain is perhaps one of the only Senators who might oppose the president's Syrian resolution because it doesn't go far enough. He wants to arm the opposition. "The Free Syrian Army is viable and strong and moderate, and anybody that tells you anything different isn't telling you the truth," he maintains. Perhaps. But are there not factions in the opposition that are clearly hostile to the national security interests of the United States? No doubt this is a complex and convoluted situation. But the president hasn't really done himself any favors lately -- especially if he can't even get hawks like McCain to unequivocally back his pro-interventionism policies.

Petr is a very friendly host, communication with him was great and easy. He was happy to offer directions & transport recommendations. The room was as described, clean and spacious with a comfortable bed. Location is convenient with easy tram access. We enjoyed our 2 night stay.
We had a great stay with Petr. The room is as described and it was large and comfortable. Petr was very helpful and a great host. His dog was well behaved and only really played with us on arrival, afterwards he stayed in Petr's room. The apartment is clean. The location seems far from the city but the transport links in Ostrava are cheap and the tram stop is only 2 minutes walk away. WiFi was strong. I would definitely stay again if coming back to Ostrava!
Petr is friendly and welcoming host. Apartment description corresponds to reality. Comfortable bed is to let sleep very well.
Conveniently to get to/from the railway.
Neighborhood quite calm, there is a park nearby.
Petr was very kind and helpful, everything was as arranged beforehand, the room was tidy and overall I was satified with my stay. I can only recommend :)
Petr oli hyvin ystävällinen ja tuli raitiovaunupysäkille vastaan, joten kohteeseen oli helppo löytää. Paikan kuvaus oli totuudenmukainen ja paikka oli siisti. Kaikin puoli hyvä paikka!
We enjoyed our stay in Ostrava. Peter provided us with a room aswell as information about city. We enjoyed it a lot. Recommended.
Nice room with a loveseat and a bed for one. Is at a distance from the center, but via a direct tram line. Photos are real.
Peter is a gracious host, responds quickly to messages online, which is very convenient.
I recommend!
About the Host, Petr
Art, music, guitar, travelling, good sense of humour, English language etc.
I am friendly, open-minded, laid-back and polite guy always prepared to listen to interesting stories from my guests :-)

.40 cal Winchester Ranger 135gr JHP Hollow Point ammo Z Q4368 - 500 rounds - $149.95
|Submitted by Darwinelectric, updated by michaelw 50 months ago (2011-06-05)
Load additional images
Price: $149.95
Price per round: $0.300
500 rounds, a factory full case.
Winchester 40 caliber Q4368 135 grain Jacket hollow point ammo. This ammo is designed for rapid expansion, reduced penetration, improved energy transfer, and low recoil and is ideal for personal protection or law enforcement use. Velocity is high at around 1200 feet per second and recoil is low for quicker second shots and reduced firearm wear. Getting this ammo was a one time deal, do not miss your chance to get some. This ammo is production left overs from the US government contract for department of homeland security. When the contract was filled the left overs were reclassified for consumer sales and a Z marked onto the cardboard case with a black marker to indicate that excise tax was to be paid and that this ammo was not for law enforcement sales, so the case will be marked ZQ4368, while the 50 round boxes are simply marked Q4368. This is first quality law enforcement grade ammo available at a discount price.

Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant (R) 311.
(photo credit:REUTERS/Ho New)
It is now a year since the devastating Tohoku earthquake and tsunami triggered
the Fukushima disaster, the largest nuclear accident since Chernobyl.
Inevitably, the episode has prompted renewed debate about nuclear
power.Since Fukushima, important developments have taken place. Germany
has decided to shut down its fission plants. Moreover, in a referendum, 95
percent of the Italian public opposed plans to restart a nuclear program in the
country. However, the United States (where public support for nuclear power is
growing) and the United Kingdom have committed to building two fission power
plants.Meanwhile, China is continuing with a massive program of nuclear
power reactor construction, and Turkey has re-committed to building its first
nuclear power plant. South Africa is also reportedly soon to announce an
expansion of its nuclear power program.A danger in the occasionally
polarized international debate is that nuclear energy is often portrayed as a
single, undifferentiated energy source. This is wrong and risks losing the
opportunity to explore the role that new nuclear technologies can play in the
energy mix.Indeed, those who seek to write nuclear energy off completely
are missing what could be remarkable developments on the horizon with hybrid
technologies potentially reshaping the way we think about nuclear
energy.The starting point for debate should be the daunting energy
problems many countries face. With growing challenges to energy security,
the range of energy sources must be broadened, with greenhouse gas emissions
reduced. There is also a pressing need to reduce pollution by coal and oil
extraction and combustion (which continue to cause more deaths per year than
nuclear power has in its entire history).Renewables are a key part of
the solution, but no country can be sure of the reliability of energies such as
wind or solar in 20 to 50 years, given changing climatic conditions. Relying on
neighboring countries for power also carries risks.There seems to be no
alternative but to include nuclear in the energy mix for the foreseeable
future. So, what do new generations of fission, fusion and hybrid offer?
Fission Modern power stations using fission, which harnesses energy from the
radioactive decay of uranium and other fissile materials, are considerably safer
than older ones such as Fukushima. This is because of stronger containment
structures, more secure storage of spent fuel rods and emergency systems to
prevent overheating. Future developments will greatly reduce the volumes of
radioactive waste produced.As the supply of uranium is limited, there
are controversial plans in some countries to construct fast breeder reactors to
recycle waste and use the fuel more efficiently. However, there are
proliferation dangers associated with the plutonium by-product.Fission
will only continue to be acceptable if the immediate risks of the systems are
reduced. Despite improved safety, the rare but catastrophic failures of
operations such as Chernobyl cannot be dismissed. As Fukushima showed,
there are also remaining risks from natural hazards and even aircraft crashes –
plus the dangers of fission associated with the storage of waste for over 10,000
years.Fusion The principle of controlled thermonuclear fusion is to
extract energy from processes similar to those occurring inside the Sun, where
hydrogen atoms are fused together to form helium. This is a "clean" process with
negligible long-lived radioactive waste.In the United States, President
Barack Obama's budget request for the magnetic fusion program for fiscal year
2013 was $400 million. However, the overall US domestic program was stripped
back to increase funding for the International Thermonuclear Experimental
Reactor (ITER) project, whose budget, $26 billion, has increased by a factor of
three in the past five years.Taken overall, because of the great size
needed for a "pure" fusion reactor and the unsolved problem of fabricating
materials to withstand the materials requirement, the development challenges are
substantial and may take decades to overcome.Hybrid The long-term future
of nuclear energy may therefore lie with combining nuclear fission (atoms
splitting) and fusion (atoms merging) in a hybrid reactor. Indeed, governments,
agencies and research institutes are already moving tentatively in this
direction.Hybrid fusion was first proposed by the American Nobel
laureate Hans Bethe to enable more widely available reserves of nuclear fuels
other than uranium, such as thorium, to be used. Hybrid could become a reality
within the next two decades – the International Atomic Energy Authority has
started a project on conceptual development of steady state compact fusion
neutron sources, and the Institute of Plasma Physics in China is planning to
build a hybrid fusion proof-of-principle prototype experiment by 2025.
International experiments are underway into the critical fusion parts of such a
system.The basic principle is that neutrons generated by fusion in the
plasma core stimulate fission in the outer blanket that contains uranium or
other fissile materials (which could include nuclear waste). Because
there is relatively less energy extracted from the plasma than in pure fusion,
continuous operation can be engineered more readily.The fission is well
below critical mass and only operates when there is a current flowing in the
plasma, which can be switched off at a moment's notice. This is why the system
is safer, especially in regions where earthquakes and tsunamis can
occur.A major advantage of hybrid reactors for countries without uranium
is that they use a wider range of fuels. And they do not produce the long-lived
waste produced in fission reactors because the high-energy neutron flux from the
fusion process transmutes these into isotopes that decay over a hundred years,
rather than tens of thousands.Not only does this eliminate some nuclear
waste problems, it helps to rid the world of weapons-grade materials.
Furthermore, if thorium is used, it cannot be converted into weapons-grade
uranium.While even modest-sized hybrid reactors could provide affordable
and almost limitless energy, their power output can be controlled through the
fusion process. Thus the operation is safe enough for a power station to be
located even in countries prone to natural hazards.Moreover, the
controllability would allow fusion-fission power to be used either as base load
or more flexibly in combination with renewable energy, which is inherently more
variable.Many aspects of hybrid nuclear require further intense
research; current collaboration between groups in Russia, China, the United
States, South Korea and Britain needs to involve more countries. While
workable hybrid technology is still some way off, time-frames could be
accelerated with the right commitments from the public and private
sectors.Taken overall, this emerging hybrid option deserves wider
understanding and support if we are going to have the maturity of debate we need
about the role that nuclear energy can play in the future.Lord Julian
Hunt, a former fusion technology researcher, is a visiting professor at Delft
University of Technology. Graham O'Connor is a former senior scientist at ITER.

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- It's a new day for data in the wireless industry as Sprint (NYSE: S) announces the Sprint Family Share Pack – a new shared-data plan that offers double the high-speed data at a lower price than AT&T and Verizon Wireless.
Consumers today are using wireless data at an exponentially increasing pace and expect data to be a part of their lives – whether they are using Facetime, connecting with friends on Facebook, uploading pictures on Instagram, or sharing them on Snapchat. Wireless customers, however, are frustrated by low data allowances with immediate data overages and complicated monthly bills. Now after rolling out its network improvements, Sprint can end these frustrations and provide the best value for consumers with the introduction of the Sprint Family Share Pack.
The Sprint Family Share Pack, offering double the high-speed shareable data1 for smartphones, basic phones, tablets and mobile broadband devices, will be available starting Aug. 22. For example you can get four lines and 20GB of data for $160 compared to 10GB of data for the same price from AT&T or Verizon.
But wait, there's more. To kick off Sprint's "new day for data" campaign, Sprint is offering a limited-time promotion for the Sprint Family Share Pack: For a family with up to 10 lines, get 20GB of Shared Data and Unlimited Talk & Text for only $100 a month through 20152 – and, as an added bonus, customers will get an additional 2GB per line for up to 10 lines. For a family of four, that's a savings of $60 per month better than AT&T's and Verizon's current pricing through 2015; double the data of Verizon; and more than double the high-speed data of AT&T and T-Mobile.
For example:
Sprint Family Share Pack Limited-Time Promotion
# of lines
Additional 2GB per line
Total Data for # of lines
2GB x 4 lines
2GB x 10 lines
"Sprint is offering the best value to data-hungry consumers. Period," said Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are doubling the high-speed wireless data because today's customers rely so much on their smartphones and tablets. We make it simple and easy for wireless consumers to get the data they need at affordable prices to make their lives easier, more productive and enjoyable. We are so certain that this is the best value on wireless today that for any customer who wants to switch to our new Sprint Family Share Pack, we will reimburse them for the cost to end their contract with another carrier."
Sprint Family Share Pack – How it Works
Sprint is changing the wireless industry with this plan that provides consumers value and flexibility, plus unlimited talk and text.
Customers can build their own plan in three easy steps as shown below. First, choose the data allowance. Second, add up to 10 lines of data access with unlimited talk and text while on the Sprint Network. Third, include your tablet devices for $10 per month per line and mobile broadband devices for $20 per month per line. There is no early termination fee and no annual service contract with non-discounted phones.
Sprint Family Share Pack (standard pricing)
Step 1:
Pick shared monthly data allowance
Step 2:
Add data access to phones (includes unlimited talk and text)
Step 3:
Add data access to tablets and MBB devices

Non-discounted phone
+ $40 per
phone for all
data options
+ $10 per tablet
All data options
+ $15 per phone
Non-discounted phone
Mobile Broadband Devices
+ $20 per device
All data options
Non-discounted: People who select Sprint Easy Pay
Discounted: People on a 2-year term service agreement for a phone
Adding tablet or Mobile Broadband Device requires one active phone line per account
All pricing excludes taxes and surcharges
Everyday pricing for competitors that have shared data plans
Limited-time Promotion for Customers Switching to Sprint Family Share Pack
In addition, for a limited time, for customers who bring their number and activate on the Sprint Family Share Pack, Sprint will buy out their families' contracts with a Visa Prepaid Card worth up to $350 2. This switching offer will be available at Sprint stores and Sprint Telesales.
With the limited-time promotion, Sprint is waiving the data access charge for handsets, tablets and mobile broadband devices on 20GB or higher data allowances for up to 10 lines. To qualify for the offer customers must switch their number from another carrier to Sprint.3 All devices must be purchased through Sprint Easy Pay.
The Sprint Share Pack gives wireless customers a good reason to come to Sprint, but the company is not done making bold moves, Claure said.
"Simply put, we are offering the best deal on shared data," Claure said. "We have more news coming later this week about plans for individuals. We want customers to think twice before choosing another wireless carrier."
America's Newest Network
The Sprint Family Share Pack comes as Sprint already has built its 4G LTE network to serve more than 255 million people, with more on the way.
"Customers are seeking a strong network experience, and at a good value," said Rich Karpinski, Principal Analyst at 451 Research. "The price and amount of sharable data associated with this new Sprint offering plays to that next wave of mobile demand."
In addition to Sprint's all new 3G network and its 4G LTE network, Sprint is deploying Sprint Spark, a technology offering turbo data speeds and designed to support a new generation of online gaming, virtual reality, advanced cloud services and other applications requiring very high bandwidth.
Available today in 27 markets across the country, Sprint Spark is an enhanced LTE service that's built for data and designed to deliver average wireless speeds of 6-15Mbps and peak wireless speeds of 50-60Mbps today on capable devices, with increasing speed potential over time. Sprint plans to reach 100 million Americans by year-end with the service.

I was reading my Kindle and was about seven percent of my way through the novel.
'I talked her out of her pants, cupped the twin, tiny globes of her *** with my palms, and pushed my lips right inside her soft, vital *****.'
Christ. I zapped the Kindle a few more random pages more:
'I am so sick of making out with girls.'
Oh, please no, please no. Not my choice for Book Club.
I could imagine in front rooms throughout The Enchanted Village, Mrs Bancroft choking on her melba toast or Mrs Champagne-Charlie spluttering on her gin and tonic. Pelly Sheepwash would be tut-tutting, Darling Loggins would be in bed with her nightie laced up to the neck and, over in the Caribbean, the fragrant Mrs Putter would be chuckling on a sunbed on her 18 to 70 holiday, with Mr Putter coming out of the sea in snorkel and flippers like Sean Connery in Dr No.
And the lovely Mabel Lucie-Attwell would be quite stern, a look I have never seen her wearing before.
It had to happen to someone. But why me? Why did I have to choose Super Sad True Love Story by Gary Shteyngart?
Because it's had great reviews. And anything imaginative pushes my buttons. And the point of the book club, I told myself, is to stretch ourselves, to read things we might not normally read, to shift ourselves from our comfort zones. It did that all right. With some books, you're wrapped in a comfy sofa cloud. With this one, it was like sitting on razor wire.
But I ploughed on and tried to forget about what my ladies might think. And then I got to a point where I cared about poor Lenny and Eunice and their love story in a dystopian New York, set slightly in the future. An America in hock to China, where youth and credit ratings are valued above all else, where everyone talks to and finds out about each other via their electronic devices, a debased society where women dress in sheer leggings called Onionskins with everything splayed out for all to see.
I recalled some obscene conversations I had seen written by younger Facebook friends and their suggestive photos. I thought about little girls dressed up like mini-mes, old before their time. The characters in Super Sad True Love Story, desensitized to shocks, weren't so far fetched after all. A shallow society based on what people look like. A Great Gatsby for the new age.
And in this sad vision of the world ahead of us, there were moments of poetry, moments of beauty and rhythm, especially when Lenny describes the landscape and his hopeless hopes for the future:
'Gray clouds bearing some kind of industrial remnant moved into the foreground; a yellow substance etched itself into the horizon, became the horizon, became the night. As the sky darkened, we found ourselves enclosed on three sides by the excess of civilization, yet the ground beneath our feet was soft and green, and behind us lay a hill bearing trees as small as ponies. We walked in silence, as I sniffed the sharp, fruity facial creams that Eunice wore to fight off old age, mixed in with just a hint of something alive and corporeal. Multiple universes tempted me with their existence. Like the immutability of God or the survival of the soul, I knew they would prove a mirage, but still I grasped for belief. Because I believed in her.'
What could have been an American Nightmare had remnants of the American Dream, a tiny element of hope in a world that time would have been better to forget.
So, with head held high, I beat on against the current down to Pelly Sheepwash's house and the hard time I knew I was going to get. Because I had not chosen wisely. But I had chosen and, for me, that was good enough.
That's about it.

Been there - survived the bad reviews for my choice - just drank lots of wine!ReplyDelete
Oh my, I would slog on if it were for book club, but the word dystopia would kind of turn me off.ReplyDelete
In a way I am glad I won't be around for the future if it is going to turn into a dystopia. Now that I am going there through my grandsons. I do worry.
Good for you! Sounds an intriguing book and far better to challenge people's perceptions than just go for the easy option.ReplyDelete

Taking Advantage of Linux Capabilities
As of this writing, the syscalls capset and capget manipulate capabilities for a process. There are no guarantees that this interface won't change. Portable applications are encouraged to use libcap (www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/security/linux-privs/kernel-2.4) instead.
The prototype for capset is
int capset(cap_user_header_t header, const cap_user_data_t data);
HEADER is a fancy way to say which pid you're operating on:
typedef struct __user_cap_header_struct { __u32 version; int pid; } *cap_user_header_t;If pid is -1, you will modify the capabilities of all currently running processes. Less than -1 and you modify the process group equal to pid times -1. The semantics are similar to those of kill(2).
The DATA argument allows you to choose which capability sets you plan to modify. There are three:
typedef struct __user_cap_data_struct { __u32 effective; __u32 permitted; __u32 inheritable; } *cap_user_data_t;
The permitted set contains all of the capabilities that a process is ultimately capable of realizing.
The effective set is the capabilities a process has elected to utilize from its permitted set. It's as if you had a huge arsenal of poetry (permitted set) but chose only to arm yourself with Allen Ginsberg for the task at hand (effective set).
The inheritable set defines which capabilities may be passed on to any programs that replace the current process image via exec(2). Please note that fork(2) does nothing special with capabilities. The child simply receives an exact copy of all three capabilities sets.
Only capabilities in the permitted set can be added to the effective or inheritable set. Capabilities cannot be added to the permitted set of a process unless CAP_SETPCAP is set.
Sadly, capabilities still lack filesystem support, limiting their usefulness to a degree. Someday, the mainstream kernels will allow you to enable capabilities in a program's inode, obviating the setuid bit in many system utilities.
Once fully supported, permitting the ping utility to open raw sockets could be as simple as:
chattr +CAP_NET_RAW /bin/ping
Unfortunately, more pressing kernel issues have delayed work in this area.
If you're so inclined, you can use libcap to hack your favorite services so that they are capability-aware and drop the privileges they no longer need at startup. Several patches exist for xntpd that do just this; some even provide their modified version as an RPM. Try a Google search if you're interested in a capability-aware version of some root-level process you find yourself often shaking a fist at.
setpcap can be used to modify the capability set of an existing process. For example, if the PID of a regular user's shell is 4235, here's how you can give that user's shell the ability to send signals to any process:
setpcaps 'cap_kill=ep' 4235
An example use of this would be to allow a friend who is using your machine to debug a CGI script to kill any Apache processes that get stuck in infinite loops. You'd run it against their login shell once and forget about them.
Here's an example that utilizes execcap and sucap to run ping as the user "nobody", with only the CAP_NET_RAW capability. Our target of choice for ping is www.yahoo.com:
execcap 'cap_net_raw=ep' /sbin/sucap nobody nobody /bin/ping www.yahoo.com
This sample isn't terribly useful because you need to be root to execute it, but it does illustrate what is possible. Despite some of these shortcomings, system administrators still can take measures to increase the security of their system. A system without CAP_SYS_BOOT, CAP_SYS_RAWIO and CAP_SYS_MODULE is extremely difficult for an intruder to modify. They cannot hack kernel memory, install new modules or restart the system so that it runs a backdoored kernel.
If your system logs are append-only and your core system utilities immutable (see chattr(3) for details), removing the CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE capability will make it virtually impossible for intruders to erase their tracks or install compromised utilities. Traffic sniffers like tcpdump become unusable once CAP_NET_RAW is removed. Remove CAP_SYS_PTRACE and you've turned off program debugging. Such a hostile environment is a script kiddy's worst nightmare, and there is no choice but to disconnect and wait for the intrusion to be discovered.
Doesn't work for me.
# execcap 'cap_net_raw=ep' /sbin/sucap nobody nobody /bin/ping www.yahoo.com
Caps: =ep cap_setpcap-ep
Caps: =
[debug] uid:65534, real uid:65534

Studies examining the relationship between total circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and bone mineral density (BMD) have yielded mixed results. Vitamin D–binding protein (DBP), the major carrier protein for 25(OH)D, may alter the biologic activity of circulating vitamin D. We hypothesized that free and bioavailable 25(OH)D, calculated from total 25(OH)D, DBP, and serum albumin levels, would be more strongly associated with BMD than levels of total 25(OH)D. We measured total 25(OH)D, DBP, and serum albumin levels in 49 healthy young adults enrolled in the Metabolic Abnormalities in College-Aged Students (MACS) study. Lumbar spine BMD was measured in all subjects using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Clinical, diet, and laboratory information also was gathered at this time. We determined free and bioavailable (free + albumin-bound) 25(OH)D using previously validated formulas and examined their associations with BMD. BMD was not associated with total 25(OH)D levels (r = 0.172, p = .236). In contrast, free and bioavailable 25(OH)D levels were positively correlated with BMD (r = 0.413, p = .003 for free, r = 0.441, p = .002 for bioavailable). Bioavailable 25(OH)D levels remained independently associated with BMD in multivariate regression models adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, and race (p = .03). It is concluded that free and bioavailable 25(OH)D are more strongly correlated with BMD than total 25(OH)D. These findings have important implications for vitamin D supplementation in vitamin D–deficient states. Future studies should continue to explore the relationship between free and bioavailable 25(OH)D and health outcomes. © 2011 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.
