BitDefender Labs Find Email Spam Attachments Decreasing
July 2007
BUCHAREST, Romania √ July 24, 2007 √ BitDefender╝, a global provider of award-winning antivirus software and data security solutions, announced today that its labs have determined that the number of spam messages sent to recipients with PDF attachments has recently decreased. BitDefender researchers believe this decrease can be attributed to the relative ineffectiveness of this spamming method, as it requires more user interaction than usual e-mail spam.
BitDefender▓s researchers regularly monitor spamming activities using BitDefender's proprietary outbreak detection technology, which can automatically detect new types of spam e-mails and create "signatures" later used by BitDefender security software to block them.
⌠We detected a peak in this type of spam about two weeks ago, but the whole wave was relatively short-lived," declared Vlad Valceanu, head of BitDefender▓s antispam lab. ⌠End users are finally becoming skeptical to opening email attachments from sources not familiar to them. As a result, it appears spammers are giving up on this tactic.■
The PDF spam wave noticed by BitDefender Labs several weeks ago was mainly comprised of fake stock tips, supporting penny stock "pump-and-dump" schemes. It raised concerns in the corporate world because text-based antispam solutions could not accurately filter such content, while blocking PDF attachments at the corporate gateway was definitely not an option.
"While spammers are sending out fewer attachments with their emails, we don▓t expect to see a dramatic decrease in the overall amount of spam distributed,■ added Valceanu. ⌠Our research has simply found that spammers are finding newer, more productive methods in their delivery of spam messages. PDF spamming will likely cease to represent a significant percentage of the spam flow in the weeks and months to come."

Just curious...
I have really curious when do the SE'ers read the posts. In the morning? Afternoon? Evening? It seems like the comments just flow by the minutes and if I did not have an office job, I would not have the 'luxury' to indulge myself on this website. Now, come forward. Are you slacking on your housework? Schoolwork? Job? :)

Jessamine Kelley BMC '10 observed some of the Philadelphia Museum of Art's symbolist paintings, like Edvard Munch's The Mermaid.
My final research project for Rachel Oberter's class, involving the Symbolist art movement in the late 1800s, benefitted greatly from my observance of some of the Philadelphia Museum of Art's symbolist paintings, like Edvard Munch's The Mermaid, Arnold Böcklin's Sappho and especially Léon Frédéric's The Four Seasons and The Source of Life. Seeing the paintings in person allowed me to get an idea of the physical impact of each painting, to analyze the color and composition, and to notice the small details I might not otherwise have been able to see. This stipend allowed me to go further in depth with my art analysis than I have ever been able to before. It has definitely helped me raise the bar for the quality and possibility of my work.

For most of history, the idea of moving people or objects through the air or into space was inconceivable. Today, however, airplanes are the fastest way to move people and goods around the world, and space travel has gone from being a dream to reality. From the TV traffic helicopter to the B-2 bomber to the voyager space probe, everything that moves through the air or space is produced by the aerospace industry.
Because of the high speeds that most aerospace products move at, they must be strong, but since they also must defy gravity, they also need to be light. As a result, workers in this industry use many specialized materials in production. Titanium and aluminum alloys are common, as are advanced composite materials. Because of the extreme conditions aerospace equipment operates in, parts must be designed and manufactured to precise specification; the smallest error could lead to failure of the finished product. As a result, significant testing occurs at each stage of the production process.
Firms producing transport aircraft make up the largest segment of the civil (nonmilitary) aircraft portion of the industry. Civil transport aircraft are produced for air transportation businesses such as airlines and cargo transportation companies. These aircraft range from small turboprops to wide-body jets and are used to move people and goods all over the world. Another segment of civil aircraft is general aviation aircraft. Aircraft in this segment range from small two-seaters designed for leisure use to corporate jets used for business transport. Civil helicopters, which make up one of the smallest segments of civil aircraft, are commonly used by police and large city traffic departments, emergency medical services, and businesses such as oil and mining companies that need to transport people to remote worksites.Aircraft engine manufacturers produce the engines used in civil and military aircraft. Because of the specialized work involved, aircraft engines are usually manufactured by separate companies, although they are designed and built according to the aircraft design and performance specifications of the aircraft manufacturers. Aircraft manufacturers may use engines designed by different companies on the same type of aircraft.
Military aircraft and helicopters are purchased by governments to meet national defense needs, such as delivering weapons to military targets and transporting troops and equipment around the globe. Some of these aircraft are specifically designed to deliver or guide a powerful array of ordnance to military targets with tremendous maneuverability and low detectability. Other aircraft, such as unmanned aerial vehicles, are produced to gather defense intelligence such as radio signals or to monitor movement on the ground.Firms producing guided missiles and missile propulsion units sell primarily to military and government organizations. Although missiles are viewed predominantly as offensive weapons, improved guidance systems have led to their use as defensive systems. This part of the industry also produces space vehicles and the rockets for launching them into space. Consumers of spacecraft include the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), telecommunications companies, television networks, and news organizations. Firms producing space satellites are discussed with the computer and electronic product manufacturing industry in this publication because satellites are primarily electronic products
The Federal Government traditionally has been the aerospace industry's biggest customer. The vast majority of Government contracts to purchase aerospace equipment are awarded by DOD. NASA also is a major purchaser of the industry's products and services, mainly for space vehicles and launch services.
The aerospace industry is dominated by a few large firms that contract to produce aircraft with Government and private businesses, usually airline and cargo transportation companies. These large firms, in turn, subcontract with smaller firms to produce specific systems and parts for their vehicles. Government purchases are largely related to defense. Typically, DOD announces its need for military aircraft or missile systems, specifying a multitude of requirements. Large firms specializing in defense products subsequently submit bids, detailing proposed technical solutions and designs, along with cost estimates, hoping to win the contract. Firms also may research and develop materials, electronics, and components relating to their bid, often at their own expense, to improve their chances of winning the contract. Following a negotiation phase, a manufacturer is selected and a prototype is developed and built, then tested and evaluated. If approved by DOD, the craft or system enters production. This process usually takes many years.
The way in which commercial and military aircraft are designed, developed, and produced continues to undergo significant change in response to the need to cut costs and deliver products faster. Firms producing commercial aircraft have reduced development time drastically through computer-aided design and drafting (CADD), which allows firms to design and test an entire aircraft, including the individual parts, by computer; the specifications of these parts can be sent electronically to subcontractors around the world who use them to produce the parts. Increasingly, firms bring together teams composed of customers, engineers, and production workers to pool ideas and make decisions concerning the aircraft at every phase of product development.

Video:How to Sew a Hooded Baby Towelwith Sarah Cogan
Learn how to sew a baby hooded towel to create a lovely homemade towel for your newborn, or to give as a unique gift. Here are some tips on how to sew a hooded baby towel.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Sew a Hooded Baby TowelHi, my name is Sarah Cogan and today, we're going to be making our hooded baby blanket.
Supplies Needed to Sew a Hooded Baby TowelThe things you're going to need are:
- some tracing paper
- a tracing wheel
- a seam ripper, just in case you make a mistake
- a good pair of scissors
- a ruler
- some straight pins to pin your fabric
Lay Out Your Pattern to Sew a Hooded Baby TowelSo I am weighing the right side of my fabric which is this kind of quilted fuzzy side, down on the table so that I can lay out my tracing paper. I want to take the color-coded side and lay it against my fabric. I am just going to line it up with my pins end.
So now that my pattern is laid out, so I am just going along the outside edge of my fabric to show me where my cut line is going to be, and then I am going to go on my inside lines I've created which show me where the seams are in the folds in the fabric. So if you don't have tracing paper, a common pencil will do the job just fine.
So now that you have your pattern laid out on your fabric, it's time to cut it out. So now that you've cut out both of your pieces, we're ready to begin constructing our hooded baby towel. Now we're going to start this process by pinning the hand of our hood. So the inside line that you created is going to be the fold line. So you're going to start pinning it and placing your straight pins in perpendicular to your seam.
Start to Sew the Hooded Baby TowelSo now that we've finished pinning, we're ready to sew. You're going to sew off a 1/2-inch seam allowance and just a simple straight stitch looks just fine. You want to make sure that you backstitch at the beginning and the end of your seam.
So now that we've sewn our hood together, we're ready to attach it to that blanket. I am going to begin pinning the hood together using the corner as my point of reference. So now that you've pinned your towel to your hood, you're ready to start sewing. You're going to sew on your seam the one that you created which is 5/8ths from the edge of the fabric. Great.
After Attaching the Hood, Finish Sewing a Hooded Baby TowelSo now that you have your hood attached to your blanket, you're ready to put on your finishing one. So you're just going to go around the outside of your blanket, right on the stitch line that you created and fold down, pin, and once you've done that, you're ready to go to the sewing machine. You're going to sew a 1/2-inch straight stitch all the way around the blanket. Great.
So now that you've sewed all your ends, your blanket should look like this. Okay, now it's really easy to customize it. I decided to go with a little giraffe iron-on application. Before you sew on your application, there's two things you should do. One, make sure to read the instructions and two, use the iron properly. We don't want anyone to burn their hands while putting out their patches.
Well, thank you for sewing with me today. I hope you enjoyed your hooded baby towel. I look forward to seeing you next time.

J assignors to Radio Corporation of America, a corporation of Delaware Application July 30, 1949, Serial No. 107,784
3 Claims.
This invention relates to printed circuit structures for high frequency apparatus, such as radio and television receivers and the signal input circuits thereof.
In the present search for less costly means with which to provide high frequency electric circuits such as those used in radio and television receivers, printed circuit developments have assumed a dominant position. A summary of these developments is contained in the National Bureau of Standards Circular 468, entitled Printed Circuit Techniques. Briefly these techniques are exemplified by the application of suitably shaped conductive circuit portions, including inductance and capacitance elements, as a coating or stratum on a non-conductive carrier surface through a stencil for example, or by means of a printing plate, so that by merely supplying successive carriers and repeating the application step, individual circuits can be readily produced in large quantities with very little manual operation.
In the past however, the eifectiveness of printed circuit methods has been considerably limited by difilculties experienced with certain circuit elements as above mentioned, coupling transformer elements, transmission lines and the like, and by circuit complications such as crossover connections. As an example of prior art difiiculties, capacitors for example, are provided as individual elements and applied to the partly prepared printed circuits and the connections are completed by separate leads. Crossover connections have introduced undesired electrical linkage between insulated leads that cross in closely adjacent relationship even though additional dielectric is interposed between them.
It is an object of the present invention to provide improved circuit structures for high frequency apparatus, and circuit-preparing methods which obviate the above and other inherent disadvantages in prior art structures and methods.
A further object of the invention is the provision of improved circuits and systems for receiving, conveying and filtering high frequency signals, and circuit-preparing methods whereby capacitors as well as inductors and conductors are all readily incorporated in a. unitary structure for that purpose.
Another object of the invention is the provision of improved and simplified printed type circuits and systems as above, including circuit elements such as transformers, transmission lines, and crossover connections and at relatively low cost of production.
The above as well as still further objects of the invention will be more readily understood from the following description of an exemplification thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure l is a perspective view, with parts broken away, of a printed circuit structure embodying the invention;
Figures 2 and 3 are enlarged plan views of the inner faces of two sections of the printed circuit structure of Figure 1 showing further details of the invention;
Figure 4 is a sectional view of the structure of Figure 1, taken along the line 4-4; and
V Figure 5 is a circuit diagram showing one type of electrical circuit arrangement for the structure of Figure 1.
According to the present invention a high frequency circuit or stem is provided substantially wholly as electrically conductive coating portions on sheets or plates of insulating material or other suitable means providing carrier surfaces, and capacitors are provided by merely securing to a surface portion of the plate or carrier, dielectric sheets each coated with one or more capacitor electrodes to provide desired capacitances. The individual capacitor electrodes are so disposed that the securing elements automatically may provide all the capacitor connections. Transformers and transmission lines are provided as pairs of side-by-side elongated conductive stratum portions extending in generally spiral shape. Crossover connections are dispensed with bysubdividing the circuit into individual sections each free of internal crossover connections and uniting such sections in spaced relation so as to reduce the undesired eifects of the interposition of a carrier with its relatively high dielectric constant between two independent parts of a circuit.
Figures 1 to 4 inclusive show a combination high frequency signal coupling and filter system embodying features of the invention. The system is shown in its entirety in Figure 1 as the assembly H), of two dielectric carriers l2, 14, secured together in spaced relation by a plurality of tubular rivets or eyelets 3|, 32, 33, 34, 35, 3'6, 31, 38, 39, 40 and 4|. The spacing is provided by ridges or flanges 45, 46 on the individual eyelets. Each carrier sheet I2, I4 is perforated for receiving the eyelet shanks 50 between the flanges sheets [2, l4, there is held an electrically conductive film or stratum 56 in which gaps 58 are provided where it is desired to insulate them from the individual eyelets which may be metallic. The inner faces 2i, 22 of the carriers l2, M are shown more fully in Figures 2 and 3 respectively.
On face 2 l, the sheet 12 carries four generally spiral inductors El, 62, E3 and 64. The number of spiral turns is adjusted to provide the desired characteristics for each inductor, and is determined by the thickness of the conductive'stratum as well as the other dimensions of the turns; In the interest of clarity, only the outer and inner turns of each spiral are illustrated, the intervening turns being represented by the dash-dot lines interconnecting these outer and inner turns. Inductor 6| extends from an end Hto an end 12. Inductor 62 has turns side-by-side with and generally paralleling the turns of inductor BI, and extends from an end 13 to-anend M. The combination ofinductors Biand 62 can accordingly be considered a bifilar transformer. At the same time the. dimensions of the individual turns, as well as the spacing between the turns of the different conductors, is adjusted to impart to each unit length of parallel conductors, the inductance and capacitance of a transmission line having a characteristic impedance suitable for carrying the desired signalsandmatching the impedance of the circuits between which itis connected.
Thus, the bifilar inductors are arranged to have anover-all inductance presenting, to signals of the lowest desired frequencies a series signal impedance. of about four-or more. times the characteristic transmission line impedance. Similarly, these inductors have an overall capacitance presenting, to signals of the highest desired frequencies, a signal shunting. impedance of about four or more times the. characteristic transmissionlineimpedance. By way of example and not by, way of limitation, the following bifilar transformer. characteristics are highly suited for passing signals extending over the entire television spectrum from below 6() to above 200 megacycles per second when supplied by a 150 ohm transmission. line:
' a Inches Thickness of conductive stratum 0.0015 Width. of an individual conductor 0.01 Spacing between adjacent edges of the i parallel conductors in the respective inductors 0.0185
. The above constants will provide a transmission line having a. characteristic impedance of slightly over 150 ohms. However, when waxed as by dipping the circuit carrying sheet '12; into, molten wax, withdrawing and cooling. the char acteristic impedance falls-to the desired. value. About eight turns of a. spiral having; the'above constants and covering anarea of two square inches aresuitablefor each of the individual conductors forming, the bifilar transformer. Conductiv ends 15 and 16 are provided for inductor 63, while inductor 64 extends from end. 12 to end 11. A conductor 66 is provided on face 2 l, for connecting two additional conductive ends [8 and. 19'.
On the opposing face 22, the sheet [.4' carries three inductors 6.1-, 68 and 69. Inductor 6"! is provided withends 81,82, and ends83, 84, terminate inductor 68. The inner end of inductor 69: is shown at 85, itsouter terminus 86 having: a connected extension 16 leading to another end I.
site of the arc.
Applied over face 22 a dielectric sheet is held. The sheet 90 which may be quite thin, has on its outer surface a pair of conductive coatings 9!, 92, and on its inner surface another pair of conductive coatings 93, 94 shown in dashdot lines in Figure 3. These coatings function as capacitor electrodes, which together with the dielectric sheet 90, provide the desired circuit capacitances.
The necessary interconnections are shown as established by means of the conductive rivets 3!, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 3'5, 38, 39, 4D, and M, all of which penetrate both sheets as shown in Figure 4.. Rivets 3|, 32, 33 and 34 may be hollow or in the form of eyelets so that they provide sockets for receiving pin or prong connections of a signal supply plug es as indicated in Figure 2. Rivet 35 interconnects conductive ends M and 82, and rivet 36 interconnects ends 16 and 81. Rivet 41 not only interconnects ends 18 and 85 but may be made hollow to provide a signal output socket forreceiving a pin or prong of signal output plug 89,
Figure 4 shows the sheet Silheld in place, parts being distorted and omitted, and compliant bends, to accommodate varying thicknesses of intervening material, being exaggerated to more clearly illustrate the details. a
Rivets 31, 38 39 and 48 function to hold the dielectric sheet 96 against the carrier It, as well as to establish the connections to the suitable capacitive electrodes. Conductive ends 35 and 84 are connected together and to electrode S3 by means of rivet 4'6. Conductive end '58 is connected' to electrode 9.1 through rivet 39; Ends." and 8% are jointly connected to electrode Mwith rivet 38', and rivet 37 connects end 12 to electrode 9.2. To protect the dielectric sheetsll' especially where it is quite thin. and frangible, a sheet of mica forexample, guardssuch as washers may be interposed between the rivet flanges 46 and the sheet. The washers 95 may be arched and resilient so that the anchoring of the rivets deforms the washers by compressing them in place and tends to avoid the loosening of the contacts that maybe causedby plastic flow of the carrier sheet I4 under prolongedcompression. As shown, all the conductive circuit component ends are quite enlarged to assure suitable engagement with the corresponding rivet notwithstanding some misalignment of the rivet.
The electrodes 9!, 92,. 93, 94 are dimensioned to overlap on opposite surfaces of the. dielectric to the extent required for the desired interelece trode capacitance. It will be noted that the four electrodes provide three capacitances, one be.- tween terminals 15 and 19, another between terminals. l9. and I1 and. a third between terminals. H and F2. Adjustment of the capacitances, as for the purpose of compensating for variation in thickness of the dielectric sheet, is readily effected by removal of overlapping portions of the exterior electrodes 9! and/or 92. Onesuitable techniquefor removal. ofelectrode material.- suchas silver coatings is by striking a relatively lowvoltage electric are between the portion to be removed and a small pointed cooperating electrode. This volatilizes the silver coating at the The cooperating electrode is moved about toshift the arcingsite for the removal of additional coating. Automatic capacitance adjustment may also be efiected'by arranging-.for the pointed electrode toautomatiwhich measures the capacitance and automatically terminates the arcing when the capacitance reaches the desired value. I
Where desired, the inner capacitive'electrodes 93.and 94 may be omitted, the conductive ends 84 and 86 being then suitably shaped to provide the desired capacitance in cooperation with the outer electrodes HI, 92. I
Rivet may be hollow to provide a socket for receiving a lead pin'of' the signal'output plug 99..
The structure of Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 makes a highly effective and inexpensive signal input circuit for television-receivers, especially when used in the circuit arrangement of Figure 5.
Figure 5 shows terminals 20I, 202, 203, 204 provide input signal supply connections to a socalled elevator input transformer consisting of four inductances I5I, I52, I53, I54 having output leads I46, I41. Inductances I5I and I52 may be in the form of closely coupled bifilar windings spaced from the other inductances I53,
I54 which may also be closely coupled bifilar windings. By providing such inductance pairs each eq'uivalentto a transmission line of 150 ohm impedance, a standard 300 ohm balanced line, such as is conventionally used for antenna leads, may be connected to supply signals to terminals 20I and 204, terminals 202- and 203 being joined. Such a connection is schematically represented by the assembly 2I 0. put connections may then be directly matched to output leads I46, I41 of the transformer, that is, one 'of these output leads may be grounded as shown.
However, by uniting terminal 20I with terminal 203, and uniting terminal 202 with terminal 204, a pair of input connections are made available for directly receiving signals from a standard 75 ohm coaxial or unbalanced transmission line, and also delivering 300 ohm unbalanced signals at output leads I46, I41. This connection is schematically represented by the assembly 2I I. Furthermore, if the input terminals are not grounded, a balanced '75 ohm line can be connected in place of the unbalanced '75 ohm line, and the transformer then also provides impedance matching to a 300 ohm unbalanced output. In addition to the above, an unbalanced 300 ohm input line may be connected to terminals 20I, 204, in place of the balanced input assembly 2I0 and thereby also deliver an unbalanced 300 ohm output to leads I46, I 41. The transformer input is accordingly suitable for use with any of the conventional standard signal supply lines.
.As shown, lead I4! is grounded and a fixed high-pass filter, including inductances I58, 44, 45 and capacitances I-6I and I62, is connected in the elevator transformer output circuit. This filter combination, part of which may be included within the casing 25, is arranged to have a low frequency cut-off which permits passage of signals having the lowest desired frequency. For improving the selection, the high pass filter may be arranged to provide a particularly high attenuation for undesired signals of a specific frequency below the nominal cut-off limit, for example intermediate frequency signals radiated from other similar receivers or signal transmitters, as by parallel tuning inductances I58 and 44 to this frequency with their respective capacitances I6I, I62. This makes a highly effective arrangement for suppressing interference by undesired signals.
The output leads from the high-pass filter are I47 and I48, and a selectable low-pass filter, in-
Unbalanced SOD-ohm outeluding inductance BI and capacitances I65, I66, I61, connects these leads I41, I48, to the input electrodes of amplifier or mixer tube 28. Stray wiring capacitance and the input capacitance inherent in tube 28 are taken into account in the filters. Inductance 9| is selectably switched for the different signal channels, as indicated by the contacts IOI, III and I02, H2. The individual inductances 0I are of such characteristics as to tune the circuit to pass the desired signals but block passage of those at higher frequency. Tube 28 may be connected in a more-or-less conventional amplification circuit, its amplified output being developed between output lead I10 and the common return conductor I50, and led to a further amplification, heterodyne or detector stage.
Although there are crossover connections in-, herent in this input circuit its subdivision into two interconnected circuit portions eachfree of circuit connections, simplifies its construction.
The input circuitconstruction may be varied in many respects, if desired. The individual inductors and capacitors can be arranged. for example, in different relations so that the capacitors are grouped in two rows of two each, rather than a single row of four, as shown above or in other patterns such as arcs of circles. Individual elements may be transferred from the circuit section on one face to that on the other.
, A feature of the invention is the simplicity with which the capacitances are provided. By arranging the components so that a plurality of capacitances are located in closely spaced relation, a
single dielectric sheet is enabled to provide a group of capacitors. This single sheet is readily connected in place without requiring any separate unusual attention to the individual connectors. Soldered connections may be provided between the conductive ends I5, I9, 11, 12 and the contacting rivet flanges 45 as by applying a soldering mixture to these ends before fastening the sheet I2 in place, and heating the mixture afterwards to fuse the solder and cause it to adhere to the cooperating surfaces. The application of both the solder mix and the heat may be effected with automatic machinery.
Another feature of the invention is the spacing apart of the circuit sections from each other. This greatly reduces the stray capacitances between the sections not only by reason of their greater separation but also because the intervening space is essentially air and has a lower dielectric constant than the carrier sheets. If the carrier sheets were placed in back-to-back contact with each other for example, the dielectric between the circuit portions would be substantially entirely the material of the sheet which may have dielectric constants about 4 times as high as air, thereby providing correspondingly higher intercircuit capacitances.
Additionally, the spaced relation of the carrier sheets makes it unnecessary to accurately position the individual circuit sections on their carrier sheets. This avoids any alignment problems that would be raised if the circuit sections were placed on opposite faces of the same carrier. Furthermore, the circuit elements including the capacitor dielectric can be protected from external mechanical damage by being located on the inner faces of the carriers, as shown in Figure 1. This also enables effective shielding of the entire circuit with the externally applied conductive strata 56 for example.
As alternative constructions in accordance 7 with, the invention,v one'or both: of the external shields 56 may be omitted, andrif desiredutlne cor;- respondingcarrier-sheet. may also have its circuit I sectionqplaced on, its external surface.

Making smart investments in VermontMarch 28,2013The budget proposal to be considered this week by the Vermont House of Representatives isnt perfect. But it begins to move the state in the right direction: toward smart investments that benefit all Vermonters and away from the austerity thinking that will take us nowhere.
In January, the administration handed the Legislature a budget with a mixed message. It proposed some important new, long-needed initiatives, particularly in early and higher education. But it proposed to pay for these initiatives by taxing break-open tickets, cutting the earned income tax credit (EITC) for low-income workers, and imposing new time limits on Reach Up the assistance program for needy Vermonters with children.
None of these sources could be considered serious revenue to support the governors initiatives. All would hurt low- and moderate-income Vermonters and ask nothing of those whove been doing well. In fact, the proposed changes to Reach Up and the EITC would undermine time-tested and effective anti-poverty efforts.
So the House was left to wrestle with a key question from the start of this session: After years of austerity budgeting, will the state begin again to make smart investments in our people and infrastructure with the goal of creating prosperity that all Vermonters can share?
From the looks of things, it appears that House Speaker Shap Smiths answer to that question was yes. He asked the Ways and Means Committee to bring in about $20 million in new revenue to balance the budget, make some investments and build the states reserves to prepare for likely federal budget cuts.
The committee passed a bill late last week that raises the needed revenue without cutting the EITC or raising other taxes that would put excessive new burdens on the Vermonters who can least afford to pay more. This modest revenue package represents an important step away from austerity and toward a vision of smart investments that benefit all Vermonters.
It would be easy for me to say that I dont support every revenue source in the package or every line item in the budget because I dont. However, its important to remember that the legislative process is designed to bring many voices to the table to work out some kind of agreement. Its tough to make good policy in the chaotic political environment of the Statehouse. I respect the work the House committees and their leadership have done to find solutions.
The Ways and Means Committees revenue package is fair and moves the state toward a more progressive tax system, based on Vermonters ability to pay. The Appropriations Committees spending plan acknowledges the need to invest in our future and begins to take small steps in that direction, rather than simply tightening our belts another notch.
Overall, these two committees have managed to take a budget offered by the governor that balanced itself on the backs of Vermonts working poor and to propose in its place a budget that begins to move the state forward.
With economic recovery finally on the horizon, its time to shift out of crisis mode and begin to think about investing in a strong future for all Vermonters. Legislators should support efforts that give Vermonters hope about their future. Citizens, too, should encourage their representatives to be bold in making smart investments that will keep our state moving forward.

As brightness wrapped itself about the earth, and proclaimed, within a mightly voice
"Mercy and truth have embraced, righteousness and peace, have kissed"
"It is finished," Christ then declared, as He closed His eyes, and gently, lowered His head....
Wailing, as soon thereafter, a prophecies spear, was thrust, into His side
Darkness laughing, until, the curtain was rent, and the skies they thundered
And the earth it shuddered, as the graves of the righteous dead, were then, opened wide
As Heaven thus shouted, with jubilous joy, and all of existence, began to rejoice
The Angels perfect, began their dance, with the stars of knowing, holding their hands
As God exhaled, upon the galaxies that breathed, everlastings, paradisiacal life....
Smiling He said, "this is My Son, in whom, I am very well pleased"
"Hearken unto Him, this, 'Your King of Kings!'"
While the birds began to sing, and the flowers began to sway
The dolphins they called, unto the blue whales of the deep
And the lioness' cubs they played, with the tender lambs so meak
As the moon turned her head to say, "I love you," to the now, coruscating sun
And Halleys Comet began to gleefully skip, along the Milky's Way
Proud mountains once again stood tall, as the forest, reverberated with laughter
Creation, mirthfully unwrapping, 'the gift,' of the everafter....
While the babies eyes beheld the light, of "Heavens Gates'
Forever restored, as they smiled within the cribs, of revelations grace, revealed
That someday, we shall all live, once more ~
As lucifer hung his head, glancing at 'the now empty cross,' one last time
"What?," he thought, as he solemnly, walked away!
"It is done~'This, Is My Son'"

Megadeth -- Worcester, MA -- November 11th, 2012
Back from the show. I haven't seen them live since the Cryptic Writings tour and forgot just how good this band is. I sorta lost touch with them during all the drama in the mid-2000's. This is first chance in a while I've had to seem do their own show somewhat nearby and not at an overpriced festival.

2. Hangar 18
3. She-Wolf
4. A Tout le Monde
5. Whose Life (Is It Anyways?)

19. Holy Wars...The Punnishment Due
Due to lack of fundage these days, I couldn't make it out there tonight. How was the crowd? Close to being sold out? Also, how was Kyng? I've been meaning to check them out, just haven't gotten around to it.
What were the set times for this show?
The crowd was pretty good. Despite hearing reports of only 600 tickets being sold, the place was near full. They even had the balcony open.
Kyng was....nothing special. They were kinda doom-ish and had a bit of a Pantera vibe going.
Kyng went on at about 8 and played for a half hour or so. Megadeth came out a little after 9 and I didn't check the time after the show but judging by the setlist I'd say they played for about 1:30-1:45
I've got this show in a couple of weeks. I'm excited to hear CTE in it's entirety as it has been a long time favorite.
The rest of the setlist is ok. It will be weird not to hear Wake Up Dead!
Shirts were $35. i didn't notice hoods.
whatever political shit he babbled before Holy Wars, he mumbled most of it. something about Secy of State Clinton not having the time to testify about ....?????
i hate it when they mumble.

I'll let it sit there until a) some sort of miracle patch comes out which makes it playable or b) new hardware is released (i'm hoping this rumoured g92 gts is good).
See, I spent nearly a week straight with the demo doing that so I would be ready for the retail version. Seeing that you have the 640mb GTS, and after working with my brother's system that has the 320mb GTS, I discovered that the best playable and best looking blend for his system came from starting off with all setting on the right hand side of the advanced effects set to medium except water and then bumping shaders, texture quality and object quality to high and lastly, editing the game.cfg file to include sun rays, battle dust and parallax occlusion mapping.
I really couldn't notice any substancial visual difference between those settings and all high settings when watching the time demo and at 1280X1024 with AA off, he was benching an acceptable 25~30 fps. I'm sure you could bump up shadow quality and physics and get the same results, if not better results.
You could use Hardocp's review of the 8800GT as a reference since the GT and your GTS are so similar.

Q: Can you tell us why you decided, Mr. Secretary, to issue stand down order for the services.
A: Well, it's not unusual when we've had a series of accidents since we've had a cluster effect in a very short period of time we want to make sure that we're taking what ever opportunity we can to look at the training mission. This will not interfere with any operational activities that we currently have and will allow those who are engaged in training and those who are working servicing these aircraft to take that 24-hour period to make sure that we enhance our safety as best we can.
I would point out that we have had perhaps the lowest level of mishaps that we have had in recent years. We hope to improve upon that record. 1996, Fiscal '96 was the safest we've had in recent years. We hope to equal if not surpass that if we can by the conclusion of fiscal '97.
But safety is our top priority and the men and women who are out there flying and risking their lives for our country everyday, it's a top priority for them as well. So this 24-hour stand down, as such, will give each of the services the flexibility within the next week to pick that time where they can accommodate the ability to have the stand down.
Q: But Mr. Secretary, since it seems not to be a common thread to connect any of these five accidents what do you hope to accomplish by this stand down.
A: To emphasize the need to promote safety. Again, I think that the American people are probably concerned about the rash of them coming in such a short period of time. And again, we have the best safety record in 1996, and we want to make sure we equal or better that. But it will give us an opportunity to look at the training missions and also look at some of the aircraft and just to reemphasize the safety issue so that we can satisfy, not only the men and women who are serving us, but their families and loved ones, that we are making our utmost effort to ensure the safety of their service.
Q: Why do you think there have so many accidents? Any explanation? Any thoughts?
A: Well each one is different. We have yet to really discover what took place off the Coast of Namibia. Whether there was in fact an air-to-air collision. Some of the circumstantial evidence would seem to indicate that. But we, don't have conclusive evidence of that yet. So we don't know exactly how that came about.
With respect to the other aircraft, it could be pilot error. We don't know exactly what took place last night, for example, with the Air Guard off the coast of New Jersey.
So each one represents something quite different. Or could represent something quite different. The F-117, was very obvious to everyone watching that, there seemed to be a malfunction of some sort that caused that plane to go out of control. Once again, I would commend the pilot who stayed with that aircraft until the very end, until he was able to eject, only at the final seconds, in order to try to minimize any damage.
So each one is different. But what we will do during that stand down period is simply taking a look at training, the quality of the aircraft and maintenance, just to emphasize safety as our most important objective.
Q: Mr. Secretary what is your feeling about the use of military aircraft in air shows. Do you think that's shouldn't be (inaudible)?
A: Well I think the American people want to see the kind of aircraft that we have in our inventories. It's been standard over to years during the course of our shows to remind the people how much they've invested in their military and what capabilities we have in all of these air shows. And none of the aircraft involved, the F-117's, for example, perform any sort of acrobatic missions, do not go into any kind of demonstrations of their capability. It's a simple fly-by to allow the American people to see what they have been investing in. So I think that will continue. I know there are some who are concerned about F-117's. Others might be concerned about B-1B's. Others would be concerned about B-2's. These are aircraft that are expensive. The American people have paid for them. We would like to have the opportunity to show them periodically to demonstrate what they have invested in.
Q: Mr. Secretary, is there any evidence after Sunday's crash that there is some inherent structural problem with the F-117's.
A: Not to my knowledge. It is way premature to make any assessment in terms of what went wrong. We have a team, now, trying to make that assessment. But I don't think anyone should rush to a judgment that there is structurally wrong. This is the aircraft that, after all, that did perform heroically during Desert Storm. It is one of our most sophisticated systems and it could be a simple mechanical failure. But I would project anything beyond that.
Q: Thank you Mr. Secretary.
Q: (Inaudible)...did he have any comments on the stand-down?
A: I think he welcomes it. He likes my judgment to recommend it.
Q: Did the Pentagon win one on landmines?
A: I think the American people won one on landmines. This is an issue the President is deeply involved with. He was concerned about it. And as he pointed out during the course of the press conference that I just returned from that we have been in the forefront of leading the effort to eliminate those systems which are harming innocent people. We have been the ones to develop systems which self-destruct in a matter of a few hours. A matter of four hours, 48 hours, fifteen days maximum. So, we have been in the forefront.
We have eliminated a million and half a half landmines. We will eliminate another million and a half landmines by 1999. We will increase our expenditure, for example, of helping people to demine their territories, by another 25 percent. Next year, we will spend about 68 million dollars more than all the other countries combined. We have spent over one hundred and fifty millions since 1993, I believe it was the year it began, just in demining efforts and teaching others how to demine.
The plane that went down off the coast of Namibia had dropped off a special forces team to help that country demine. So, we are ought to be very proud of what we have been doing and we regret that we could not sign onto what was being proposed in Oslo but there are two fundamental problems with what was being proposed. Not a sufficient exemption for our men and women who are serving in Korea which still is one of the most dangerous flash points in the world. And also not allowing us to have the kind of anti-tank mine that would in fact protect our troops. And so, under those circumstances we couldn't sign on.
`I think the American people will understand that. But their security, their force protection, is our top priority and that we have been in the forefront of developing systems that do not harm innocent people: women, children, farmers. We have developed the systems that don't harm them. It's the other countries who ought to be following our initiative rather than the United States being blamed.
We are in the forefront of progress and we hope that we can make more progress with them in the coming weeks and months. We will be talking with members on congress. I know I have talked with several during the course of last evening. And the President announced at his press conference that former Chairman of the Joints Chief of Staff David Jones, is going to serve as an advisor to the President and myself to see if the new initiative being proposed today will in fact be implemented and that General Jones, of course, has been in the forefront as leading the effort to eliminate landmines. So, he is going to be a very important factor in all of this.
Q: Is there any indication of any hostility in connection with the crash of the UN helicopter in Bosnia?
A: None that we are aware of at this time.
Press: Thank you Mr. Secretary.
