Exploring the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner
Scan Free
If you prefer to travel light and free, try OpenVAS, a GPLed fork of the Nessus scanning tool.
The Internet has become more dangerous over the years, with constantly changing threats and ever more sophisticated attackers. As have most security professionals, we have seen all manner of clever schemes designed to part businesses from their money and data. To help discover and manage threats, we rely heavily on free software tools. One of the most popular security tools is the Nessus vulnerability scanner by Tenable Network Security [1], which many have used to look for vulnerabilities on customer networks.
The decision by Tenable to change the licensing for commercial use was viewed with frustration by a number of security professionals. Prompted by the final announcement on Slashdot in October 2005 that Nessus would be closed source, Tim Brown made the decision to announce a fork. The result of that effort is OpenVAS [2], a free software fork of the Nessus vulnerability scanner predominantly licensed under the GPL.
At this time, OpenVAS has a thriving community, with contributions from both individuals and corporations from all over the world. The OpenVAS project is a member of Software in the Public Interest, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping organizations develop free software. A recent successful developers conference had 16 participants from four continents, and we have more than 13,000 vulnerability checks committed to our public SVN repository.
In this article, we describe the OpenVAS project and show how to use it to assess your network security systems.
OpenVAS Architecture
As with Nessus, OpenVAS follows a client-server model. A server component is responsible for scheduling and running scans, and a client component is used to configure scans and access the results. The server is normally installed on a Linux or Unix server, and the client is typically run from the administrator's own workstation. Currently, the client must be connected to the server for the entire duration of the scan; however, some of the developers are currently working on a new component that will support much more RESTful interfaces.
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority officially assigned OpenVAS TCP port 9390. OpenVAS is a security-conscious project, and the connection to this port from an OpenVAS Client is always tunneled over SSL with strong ciphers to ensure that only the intended user can access the data generated by OpenVAS.
Advanced Plugin Preferences
In the Advanced Plugin Preferences area, additional parameters can be passed to modules that were configured earlier. For example, you can activate fragmented packets, NULL scans, and many other Nmap-specific parameters if Nmap is selected as the port scanner. Generally speaking, if additional configuration is necessary for any specific module of OpenVAS, the Advanced Plugin Preferences section is the place to seek answers.
OpenVAS is available in binary package form for most major Linux distributions, and you can get it from third-party repositories or obtain it directly from the OpenVAS website.
Some Linux distributions ship incompatible versions of the server and client. Version 1 clients are not compatible with version 2 servers. Keep this in mind when installing from your standard Linux distribution repository.
If you would prefer to compile the code yourself, you will find the source code at the OpenVAS website [2] – either in standard tarball form or via anonymous SVN. Compiling is not difficult, but you must compile the openvas-libraries module first. Be sure to meet the following dependencies when compiling: gpgme-devel, gcrypt-devel, gnutls-devel, glib2, glib2-devel, glib2-data, and Gtk+ 2.x (for the Gtk client).
The next step is to add the first OpenVAS user. The OpenVAS server implements user accounts independently of the operating system. (LDAP support is planned for a future version.) To add a user, simply run the openvas-useradd script
# openvas-adduser johndoe
and you will be prompted for rules to supply with the user information. These rules let you specify which nodes an OpenVAS user can and cannot scan. This feature protects some sensitive systems from being scanned without proper supervision.
The rules syntax is
accept|deny ip/mask default accept/deny
as in:
accept 192.168.1.0/24 default deny
The preceding rules allow the user to scan all systems in the 192.168.1.0 network but deny access to any other network. User settings are stored in the /var/lib/openvas/users/ directory.
Getting Started
As you will learn later in this article, OpenVAS uses plugins to define scanning scenarios. To update the plugins, simply run the following command:
# openvas-nvt-sync
If you run this command regularly, your plugins remain up to date. Without up-to-date plugins, the scanner will miss new vulnerabilities. After you run openvas-nvt-sync, restart the server.
If you installed from a binary package, use the service command to start the server. If you installed from source, start the server by typing:
PATH_TO_SERVER/openvasd -D

Have been using this for a couple of weeks with the Left Effect Night Cream and there has been a very definite improvement. Will definitely buy both products again.
Brilliant product really makes a difference. I do not use it every day but when I do you can tell.
Love Elemis products - always smell and feel lovely. Will have to wait longer to see how effective it is.
Love all Elemis products and expecting this will perform as well as everything else from this company - too early to evaluate yet, but feels lovely to touch and on the skin
a brilliant product - but relies on good facial massage to maximise effects
very good product
Elemis product are usually high quality and this day cream is no exception
Very good service and delivery. The products alway arrived in good condition.
I am normally an Elmis fan, but have found this product, as other reviewers have, "rolls" and does not seem to absorb into skin. Consequently, I have not had any benefit from it and so proved a very expensive and unproductive experience. Elemis have not made any comment about this problem of "rolling"? So why ask for customer feedback if it is ignored?
does what it says ,see the results in less than a week.
Good value for money and quick service.

Oh no! I hope you feel better Deborah! Drink that OJ like it's 1999! Or going out of style! Or whatever the kids are saying these days!
Love this round-up. Bookmarked all around.
Thanks for reminding us of these! I still have those cinnamon muffins and pumpkin spice marshmallows book marked! And the baked eggs with creamed spinach how did I miss that one! And the lady bug cake is still just too cute!
And I hope you and your daughter feel better soon!

Ph.D., U. of Maryland, 1997
Through my teaching and research I seek to uncover the threads that knit present-day environmental problems to past decisions, practices, and processes. One can argue that if we are to make wise decisions with regard to the environmental problems we face today, we must understand the complex web of human and physical processes that, over time, have contributed to their existence. I am particularly interested in urban sustainability; management of public lands, especially state forests and urban green spaces; environmental justice; and the evolution of mining landscapes. Although much of my early work focused on the social and environmental impacts of coal mining in Appalachia, my most recent efforts build on my association with the Long-Term Ecological Research - Baltimore Ecosystem Study (LTER-BES). More specifically, my colleagues and I have been using an environmental justice frame to study the distribution of urban parks and street trees across the urban landscape. As a follow-up to this research, I will travel to archives in Baltimore, Phoenix, and Portland during spring 2014 to collect data on early urban zoning initiatives. Finally, I should mention my involvement with Education Abroad. Every summer I take 12-15 Ohio University students on a sustainability-themed education abroad trip to Edinburgh, Scotland. Over the course of five weeks, we explore this fascinating city and country through coursework (GEOG 4560-5560 – City and Environment and HIST 4903-6903 – Edinburgh Since 1750) and numerous field trips.

Watching Cable TV in Port Monmouth
Looking at national trends helps us get a picture of cable TV in Port Monmouth, NJ. Half of the population watches some of their favorite shows online. Even though streamed content is on the rise, 97% of Americans still watch television the old fashioned way, on their TV, and 33% of people have four or more televisions in their home for watching these shows. More than 72% of Americans combine their cable TV service with a broadband Internet connection into a bundle. So what, right? Well, of your fellow 3,950 Port Monmouth residents, there's:
- 1,304 owners of at least 4 TV's
- 1,896 who take the term 'television' show lightly (and stream instead)
- 3,832 keeping to traditional TV for their favorite shows
- 2,844 users with bundled cable subscriptions
- 3,279 lucky enough to have free evenings to watch live television.

The Marion County Knights baseball team managed to squeeze in two games at the end of last week after a rash of rainouts early in the week. The Knights played Taylor County on Friday and Shelby County on Saturday, both at Hourigan Field. Marion County came out of these two contests with a record of 1-1, taking their overall record to 7-8.
At home against Taylor County
The Marion County Lady Knights softball team was scheduled to play three games last week, all at Talley Field. However, due to rain, they were only able to get in one of those games.
Campbellsville 1, Marion County 7
During Friday's Panther Twilight Invitational track meet at Elizabethtown, sophomore Brooks Divine took what Head Coach Robby Peterson described as "a nasty fall" on the pole vault event which caused some injuries that will most likely sideline Divine for the rest of the season. According to Divine's mother, Brooks suffered some pulled ligaments in his neck and a fractured rib.

Protect assaulted women in Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh and punish the culprit
They were beaten up and abused for promoting education for women in Digwaar village in Uttar Pradesh.
On May 12, five women were brutally beaten and harassed by Sahib Singh Yadav. Two of them have sustained serious head and body injuries.
These 5 women work to provide education with the Sahjani Shiksha Kendra (SSK). They were inaugurating the literacy centre for Dalit women in Digwaar village in Uttar Pradesh.
Sahib Singh used caste-based abuses like 'chamarni', 'basorni' and sexually explicit language to the women. When the SSK team tried to persuade him to stop interrupting the ceremony, he attacked them with a thick wooden stick.
He also threatened to kill them if they ever came back to the area. The villagers were also threatened with dire consequences if they gave any statement against him.
SSK is the only women-headed organization in the district, run primarily by Dalit women in Lalitpur. An important focus of their work is Adult Literacy Centres in the villages of Lalitpur.
Sahib Singh Yadav was arrested 7 days later and charges of sexual assault and attempt to murder have been filed against him. He is in judicial custody for 14 days.
However, despite the arrest of Sahib Singh Yadav, the Dalit community in Digwar is still under the threat of such violence as a backlash to this arrest. The SSK field workers are prone to this backlash as well.
As their colleague and a women, I am outraged at this violence. It is important to raise the issue of safety of women activists who fight for education to become a reality to all.
That's why I started this petition asking the CM of Uttar Pradesh and other concerned authorities to ensure that-
1) Security is provided for the staff of SSK who were attacked.
2) Security is provided to the Dalit basti of Digwaar village as they are under serious threat.
Sahjani Shiksha Kendra, Nirantar started this petition with a single signature, and now has 5,654 supporters. Start a petition today to change something you care about.

E.L.F. Essential Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara

Hair: Black, Straight, Medium

Unlike 80% (fake statistic) of the reviewers here, I actually used both sides.
- Holds curl
- Lengthens
- Makes my short, straight, nonexistent Asian lashes visible!!
- Super natural
- It takes a few strokes to effectively separate lashes.
- Longevity is only okay. You need to reapply every few hours.
Since my Asian lashes are already black, colored mascara is redundant and I only need the lengthen/holds curl part of mascara. Black mascara also looks fake next to my natural black hair. Plus, now when I open my small eyes I can actually see my eyelashes. Which is pretty cool and unusual to me.
- Tames effectively
- Reapplying is unnecessary
- Lightly removes whatever I used to color in my brows, and seals the rest in.
- Not really related to the product, but I can't find this in stores anymore! It's not discontinued, but I can only buy it online, which I really don't like doing.
Some people complained about getting white flakes but that didn't happen with me, or if it did, it was so subtle I can't tell. Alright, so I kinda don't have eyebrows. Well, I do, but they're really sparse and they grow all over the place. Even after meticulous shaping, they're still unpresentable. So first, I color my brows in. Then I use this to keep the eyebrow hairs in place. It also removes some of the eyebrow color. It removes the color in just the right spaces so it looks like I put in thin, fine strokes of color instead of chalking it on, which is perfect!

Love this product for setting my brows. Very cheap and works great.

Great Product & Great Value. I use this mascara on my eyebrows only and this is so much better than Maybelline Clear Mascara. The size of the brush fits my eyebrows and does not distribute too much product. The gel holds my eyebrows in tact all day. I will buy this product again...
Age: 25-29
Skin: Sensitive, Olive, Neutral
Hair: Black, Wavy, Coarse

I *really* wanted to love this product. I mean the price was amazing ($1.00), it has two sides, the brush is great, BUT after using this for about two weeks I noticed that my eyebrows started to accumlate white flakes throughout the day! It took me a whille to connect it to this product. Even when I used a small amount, I still got the flakes. Had to trash the product, but washed and kept the nice brushes. Oh well, back to my Maybelleline.

Better than any other brow gel I've ever used! I use both ends for my brows and I LOVE it. I have long, unruly hairs and this keeps them in line better than any other product I've tried. I wish the tube was larger, but for $1 I'll just buy more!

What a great find!!! This product is not only super inexpensive, but it works better than any of the higher priced products I have tried over the years. No other similar product's applicator has covered my brows in one stroke. Other products treat this like it is a clear mascara, or SHOULD work on brows, but the mascara applicators just don't do the trick correctly - E.L.F. addressed this beautifully. And all for just $1.00.
- really inexpensive, but good quality
- incredible brow applicator wand - does the job in one stroke
- one "dip" and enough product is dispensed to cover your brow
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure

You can't beat the price on this product! I use this to control my eyebrows and it holds them in place all day. Definitely would repurchase...it's only $1
Age: 19-24

This is cheap and it works. I highly recommend this to everyone. For the price, it's worth a try.

i would buy this a million more times. my eyebrows have always had a mind of their own and they always get out of place. this product locks them in place and you dont feel or see the product at all. i havent actually used this on my lashes..and im not sure what its for..but ill just use both sides on my brows for now. its only a dollar..what do you have to loose?
Age: 44-55

I was surprised by the negative reviews on this product, well, sort of. There are so many mega-holding products out there now, if you're used to that, this may seem a bit weak in comparison. I like it, it works great for me, possibly because my brows are not full. I don't know why but as I get older my brows get a bit squirrel-y looking, growing in odd directions, it's crazy looking! I bought this just to use on my brows and I'm not sure why it holds better than a wax on me but it does.I love wax, particularly Revlon ColorStay pencils for color but it just doesn't get my brows going in the right direction. This clear gel does, which is odd as it is a very light hold, it doesn't feel stiff or sticky at all but it does put my brows back where they're supposed to be and they stay that way. Like every other product out there, it may not work for everyone, but it's a buck, worth a try in my opinion. I'll continue to buy.

Darlan, Jean François
Jean François Darlan (zhäN fräNswä´ därläN´), 1881–1942, French admiral. A career naval officer, he became commander of the French navy in 1939 and joined the Vichy government (see under Vichy) in 1940 as minister of the navy. After the fall of Pierre Laval, Darlan was made (Feb., 1941) vice premier, foreign minister, and successor-designate to Marshal Pétain; he was the actual head of government. Laval returned to power in Apr., 1942; Darlan lost his cabinet posts but was given command of the French armed forces. In Algiers during the Allied landing (Nov. 7, 1942) in North Africa, Darlan ordered the cessation of French resistance to the Allies. Although publicly repudiated by Pétain, he assumed control over French N and W Africa in the marshal's name and brought them to the side of the Allies. He was assassinated in December. He was succeeded as high commissioner by Gen. H. H. Giraud.

Featured Items:Action Hoe®
1. Weeding is an important part of gardening, as weeds compete with your plants and shrubs for nutrients, water, and space. Here are a few tips for optimal weeding.
2. Weed early and often. The best time to weed a garden or flower bed is early in the growing season when the ground is still soft and before the weed seeds have a chance to spread. Stay ahead of weeds by doing a little every day.
3. An Action Hoe® is great for weeding and cultivating around live plants and shrubs. It works by using a back and forth push-pull motion to cut weed roots deep under the surface. Use a bow rake to clean-up and level out the soil and mulch after weeding.
4. Dispose of all weeds in recyclable yard waste bags. Check with your township or municipality to see if they dispose of these types of bags.
Insider Tip: Action hoe® kills weeds by cutting below the surface

Chick Lits Book Club- We've finished the book
Good Morning everybody, or should I say anybody? Just kidding. Anyway, so we've finished the book. If there is anybody out there who wants to give another book a go, let us know.
Some thoughts:
Very cool how James' time in prison is reduced because of his friends, both of which are on opposite side of the law, the judge and the "business" man. I guess it really does pay to have friends in high places. But I am happy for James, very happy. I think he's been through enough without having to sit in jail and rot.
The smelly guy with no arms - creepy. Rehab is a scary, scary place and I never want anyone I know to have to be there. Well, duh.
And how about Leonard, with catering the food and installing cable TV so they could watch the fight? VEry, very nice. I guess "business" men can be nice people as well. I was sorry to hear that he died. I wonder if he and James ever did meet or talk again after rehab.
When he's writing out his confession, all those things he did - Whoa, those are not your ordinary little boy pranks. This is one messed up boy and again I wonder WHERE THE **** ARE THE PARENTS???? This kid needed an intervention in a BIG, GIGANTIC way. Psychriatric help, drugs (prescribed ones) he needed something. Lockdown, I don't know something and his parents failed him miserably, just miserably.
Kind of predictable at the end, when he tells his brother to take him to a bar, first I said, no it can't be but within a second or two I realized he was testing himself and I knew he wouldn't do it. Still not sure why the brother actually took him to the bar, oh yeah he's part of that wonderful family.
Okay so Lily kills herself, I am very sad. i don't think it would have worked out for the 2 of them anyway, not as a couple but who knows?
I am very, very happy for Miles. not really surprised about anything he says at the end of the book.
Overall I enjoyed the book, I wouldn't say it was the best book I've ever read, not even close, but it was good enough.
Your thoughts?

Hi Robin, Hi everyone! Yes I agree, let's wait til after the holidays for the next book, I don't have any suggestions but I'll jump in there. My friend just finished the DaVinci Code and LOVED it, I didn't think I'd be interested in that, didn't see the movie either. Plus I'd rather not read a book that has a movie out anyways. And that's not exactly my genre either. But if you'ns want to read it, count me in. Otherwise, I don't have any ideas.
You know what I really liked? The updates at the end of the book telling how everyone ended up and what happened to everyone. I think for me that was the most moving, tragic part of the book. I was surprised that Leonard died. And really surprised about Lily, what if she had just waited a day or two? I'm with you though, Robin, not sure they would have made it anyways. Now she can be forever "pure" in his memory as the "angel" who helped turn his life around, and, LOL not the shrew who would go on to nag him about leaving the toilet seat up etc. I also wonder if he wanted to honor her memory by saying she died sober and never relapsed, I suspect her for weakness and possibly ran back out into society and got right back into it. I actually suspected Leonard might use again given his "connections" (maybe I was on the fence about that one) but I'm kinda pessimistic and judgemental that way.
You thought the bar scene at the end was predictable? I was pretty surprised myself (I'm naive that way) but I was just angry about it! Like the previous months were just a joke and he was going to throw it all away with that one huge drink. Ordering that humongous glass too. And you're right, the family, the brother, he should have stood his ground, though it would have gotten violent...then for his brother to go shoot pool while James was at the bar, symbolic of the way his family looked the other way, were involved but really weren't, seemed ambiguous about it all, just wrapped it all up. I feel sometimes like I have a bit of an addictive personality and for the life of me I don't how he found the strength to pass that drink up. You can tell by his description of the glass he WANTED it. Interesting.
I'm just so cynical....I keep thinking he may have relapsed at some point by now, possibly by Oprah coming out at him, humiliating him in national TV calling him a fraud and generally berating him in front of the world. Its worrisome considering he was relying on his inner person and not the steps, the meetings, AA, when he felt weak. Not having a terrific family support, on paper, sure, but if he felt out of control and close to using again, do you think he could call his parents or even his brother? He needs some kind of support system, he wouldn't even have Leonard to call if he was slipping.
Thank you Robin for leading us through our discussion and your well thought out opinions, I enjoyed this whole experience. Will check back later. xoxxoxoxo

Great, I'd love to do another book and after the holidays is perfect. 2 of my daughters read the DaVinci Code and they didn't love it. I started it, couldn't get past page 50. So it gets a big fat NO vote from me. My friend told me about a book that she loved, I think it was called "The Kite Runner" but I'm not sure, I'll ask her about it.
I liked the updates too. Sorry to see Leonard go. Lily had just a really tough life, how does one ever get over that stuff?
I know with the drinkiing at the bar and stuff, you're wondering how he did it. I know this is gonna sound crazy but I'm telling you with me and this weight thing and him and his drinking thing - that's it - you just make the decision to do it. Or not to do it. Once I decided I didnt' want to be fat anymore it's been sooo much easier for me to resisit the stupid food. And I had never done that before, not seriously. It's just about making the decison.
And I think it's what he did. He didn't want to live his life like that anymore so he's stopped. That's why he's able to do this without AA. I don't know what do I know. I've seen him on Oprah and unfortunately Oprah mentioned when she was grilling him about Lily dieing, so I knew she was gonna die. He says he still hasn't used. And he's happily married with kids. I really, really, really hope he doesn't have a setback. I mean when we have a setback it's gotta be easier to get back on track then someone like him, no? Well I'm sure he could CALL his parents if he had a setback, but would they REALLY be there for him, I doubt it. But again he's got a wife, so hopefully he will stay clean and sober for his whole entire life. I really hope so.

Hey! This is the first time that i've posted in the chick lits threads, but I just wanted to talk about the end of the book! I've read the book about 6 months ago, and I really enjoyed it.
The one thing that stands out for me though is the recap at the end. I was really sad to hear that Lily had died. It was kinda like a little blow for me because I'm such a sap and love a good love story, and I really enjoyed Lily and James together. They provided each other so much hope and support, even if it was kind of disfunctional.
Has anyone read the second part to the book "My Friend Leonard?". I've been meaning to pick it up, i just haven't yet.
A PP mentioned the Kite Runner... Ohhhh what an amazing book.
Right now I'm reading A Fine Balance right now. I don't have the name of the author on me and I'm too lazy to go check... but you guys should check it out... it's hard to put down. It's a good thing too, it's over 700 pages! Lol it's helping to prolong the book a bit i guess.

Oh good, so that's another recommendation for the Kite Runner.And according to google the author is Khaled Hosseini. Anyone else any thoughts about reading this book? Michelle?
Well unfortunately I had heard that Lily was dies, so the whole book I was like waiting for it to happen. It would have been interesting to see how things would have turned out for them had she lived.
I had heard he (james frey) wrote another book, and I heard it was a book of fiction, but maybe I misunderstood or it is indeed another book besides "My Friend Leonard" I guess I wouldn't mind reading it. And when books are EXCELLENT, I too don't want them to end, unfortunately this is a rarity.

Count me in for the Kite Runner! Heading off to the library to pick it up...LOL I know we said we'd wait til after the holidays, but I NEED something to read! Well, if Cosmo or Glamour is in my mailbox RIGHT NOW, I'll wait, otherwise I'm off to the library. Plus I'm a sucker for anything that comes highly reccommended by others....LOL
Oh yeah and I didn't know Frey wrote a sequel book. Sounds interesting. Of course we know how that story ends. But still.

Sorry for being gone so long! The Kite Runner gets my vote, but I'd really like to wait until after the holidays to start it.
This book was really an eye-opener for me. I know that the story was somewhat "exaggerated", but I still wonder how much of it was untrue. He must have been through **** just to come out with the experiences he described. It was frightening and raw. I really liked it, but I'm not sure it would be something I'd select for myself in the future.
I was saddened by Lily's death, but not surprised. I also wonder if it wasn't for his good. If she had fallen to the temptations of the world, he might have been blinded by love to it and fallen back into addiction himself.
Overall, it was a good read, but not necessarily the genre I'm used to. We'll have to see what the Kite Runner holds!

Governor's Safety and Health Award Eligibility Criteria
Every establishment within the geographical boundaries of the state of Kentucky is eligible for this award even if the establishment won the award the previous year. The establishment must be free of any egregious safety or health violations for a period of 24 months beginning with the date of issuance of the citation and any pending discrimination complaint or any uncorrected or contested serious violation(s). Eligibility is limited to one award during a 12-month period of time.
An establishment may qualify for the award if its employees together achieved the required number of hours worked without experiencing a lost-time injury or illness. The required number of hours is dependent upon the number of employees and is shown in the following table. Once the minimum hours worked threshold has been achieved, an establishment may be eligible for an award in subsequent years providing there were no recordable injuries and illnesses resulting in lost work days during the previous calendar year.
# of Employees
up to 125
from 126 to 250
from 251 to 375
from 376 to 500
501 or more
Man-Hours Worked
If your organization has multiple facilities, (multi-establishment), your establishment may qualify as a separate element. To do so, your establishment or operation must be organizationally distinct and geographically distinct from other establishments of the organization.
To be organizationally distinct, your establishment, of a multi-operations organization, must be under separate operating management reporting directly to the head of the organization.
To be geographically distinct, your establishment must by physically separated from other elements by distance or a definable boundary. Establishments in different cities and counties cannot be combined to create more hours earned for the award. Each individual establishment must stand on its own record.
Back to Top
Application Process
To ensure that the requirements are fair and equal to all applicants, approval of the award is based on information contained in the employer's injury and illness records maintained and verified in accordance with the Recordkeeping Requirements of the Kentucky Occupational Safety and Health Program.
Any employer or individual who knowingly makes a false statement regarding its safety and health record(s) shall upon conviction be punished by a penalty of not more than $10,000 or not more than six months imprisonment or both. (Please refer to: KRS Chapter 338.991(8).
To apply for the Governor's Safety and Health Award, complete an award application and mail the completed application along with your 300A summary, 300 logs and documentation of man-hours worked to:
Labor Cabinet
Division of Education and Training
1047 U.S. 127 South, Ste. 4
Frankfort, KY 40601
Use this
to download the Governor's Safety and Health Award Application - (Only one application accepted within a twelve month period.)
Back to Top
Presentation of the Award
The winner of a Governor's Safety and Health Award will be notified when its application and records have been evaluated and verified. The recipient may elect to receive the award at a ceremony at the employer's worksite or during the annual Governor's Safety and Health Conference. If the employer chooses to have the award presented at the Governor's Safety and Health Conference, the application must be postmarked prior to March 1 of each year, mailed to the Kentucky Labor Cabinet address indicated above and be received at least six weeks before the award is to be presented.
For those employers who wish to have the award presentation made at their establishment, we encourage a celebration ceremony. Encouraging local civic and labor leaders to attend a celebration highlighted by greetings from prominent officials representing the employer, employees and government will contribute a great deal to the occasion and publicly demonstrate the employer's and employees' pride in their joint accomplishments. Presentation of the award should be publicized to the greatest extent possible, both for the public relations value and as a stimulus for safe and healthy conduct on the part of employees. (Award recipients will be responsible for making arrangements for media and internal publicity if the event is handled by the employer at the establishment.)

The silver lines are so I can line them up with the collimation screws,
It did work as its suppose to , I thought my collimation was spot on using a star test ( concentric rings) , with the mask on , the lines crossed in the centre but one was slightly back a little bit so I adjusted it so they were all the same , I then took the mask off and looked at the defocused star , it showed not concentric rings (off to one side slightly ) so I collimated it back to perfect again without the mask , but then the clouds rolled in and had to cover the scope. I don't know why the two methods didn't agree , I'll have a go with it another time and try again . I found the lines to be bright enough but a bit awkward to see as they were very small ( I was using a 7.4 & 6.4mm eyepieces , 378x & 437x mag ) should I be using more power to make the image bigger?
Posted 04 September 2012 - 12:01 PM
And to Nevy, I got a little taste of that myself, trying to collimate using my webcam. The two patterns with and without the mask did not agree. I started wondering if having a not-perfectly-centered secondary could cause such a discrepancy. I can't quite get my mind around it. I'll keep messing with the mask, no doubt, but perhaps the tried and true "center the airy disk in the diffraction rings" will win out after all.
Thanks for the feedback, guys!

Ideally, if anyone has a .svg file with exact dimensions for the Duncan mask, that would make it easier, otherwise I will use the drawings from a few of the posts on this thread. ( I assume there is no "Duncan Mask" generator on the web? http://astrojargon.n...Generator.aspx)
Posted 12 January 2013 - 08:57 AM
I got an email recently from someone asking if I could add Duncan masks to my lineup, so I wanted to see if that would be a useful service to provide to the community. I've read some conflicting posts here about people being able to get results with them, and I've never owned an SCT so I don't know if methods like Greg Nowell's SGCD are easier/better. I don't want to sell something to people that isn't going to work well.
Posted 14 January 2013 - 07:16 AM
I'm wondering if a larger diameter disc can be used to "stop-down" a larger diameter scope to 10" and still work? I'm thinking here of my C-14.
Posted 19 June 2015 - 04:52 PM
For those of you with 9.25 SCTs I made one today using fibreboard and a Martha Stewart circle cutter and protractor. The dimensions are 9 3/4" for the overall diameter, 8 1/2" for the next diameter then 6 1/2" for the next diameter (that leaves about a 5/8" so the mask lies on the retainer ring). Finally the inner circle which fits over the secondary collimation screw cap is 3 5/8".
Posted 02 October 2015 - 01:10 PM
Hi Guys,
A little intro. I'm Duncan Evenden and you are discussing a mask diagram in a PDF I put on-line a couple of years back. Thanks to my mate Robert for first posting it on one of the major astro forums... I am amazed there is so much interest and glad it has been useful. I have only just joined Cloudy Nights so I could post this after a friend told me about this thread.
I got my first scope, which is still my scope, on 2 Jan 2006 and immediately ran into collimation issues as one of the screws fell out onto the grass first time out! This is a Meade LX90 8" UHTC, now deforked and tuned with Vacuum Grease and a Lakeside Focuser. Then I discovered Bobs Knobs as I found I kept losing the allen key (hex wrench to some of you). Then I found out the difficulties of collimation. A long web search led me to this idea.
My first mask was made of a Wickes (DIY chain) repair plaster lid which is white plastic (very good for flat fields as well if no holes:) ). The slots were quite narrow. I later experimented with wider slots, this was the time I produced the PDF. Trouble is narrower slots work better as the diffraction that changes the curved slot into the three sets of three (if you look closely) lines produces a sharper image, but the trade off is you need a brighter star.
My current mask uses the same size lid but dark blue (from another Wickes product). It has thinner slots and the dark colour stops light transmission so improves contrast. BTW the hoop is the dew heater which usually sits on the retaining ring.
Originally I used a 5mm Baader EP (400x). Now I use a Canon 1000D (modded) and AstroPhotoTool, using 10x LiveView to view the image. The star must be in the centre of the FoV/chip as this scope has terrible optics at the edges. With this camera I have to use a really bright star, Vega is ideal as I can see it in the Live View ;{. Otherwise I use single short exposures and the APT Magnifier which takes a while. Those with nice expensive CCDs should have no problem. It still takes me a couple of goes to get the collimation spot on. I would recommend that if you change the imaging train, re-collimate. I do a bit of planetary imaging as well as deep sky and it's critical to be accurately collimated.
As to mask design, experiment to find what's best for your scope, a friend of mine used cardboard pizza bases for ages for this. Maybe the dimensions I use can be scaled up or maybe they should be kept the same. I suspect that the slots should be the same width and distance from the edge but different lengths, but I am not a mathematician, I make and try and remake (more fun). The slots must respond to the adjustment knobs so the slots can't be too long or one knob turn will affect more than one slot/difraction pattern. Then make the final one, my current mask is now 4 years old and should last as long as I have the scope.
Hope that helps,
Orpington Astronomical Society, UK.

Welcome to Cloudy Nights, Duncan! Thanks for stopping by to share your expertise with us.
Posted 02 October 2015 - 03:08 PM
Yes, welcome! And thanks for your contribution to our beloved hobby!
Posted 02 October 2015 - 05:11 PM
That is, a laser cut mask perfectly mounting on the secondary might be necessary. A scissored cut pizza box might lead to a wrong answer.
I'm not sure about this but it seems that this could solve the mismatched error described earlier.
Clear skies,
Posted 03 October 2015 - 03:26 AM
Thanks for the warm welcome. Yes, one thing I've found with this hobby is when you make things accuracy is good!
Posted 12 October 2015 - 10:54 PM
Hi Dunc,
I've been using your mask for about 4 years and it works great. Gets me in the ballpark and a little tweaking on a bright star get it perfect. I like the Duncan Mask because I can use it during daylight/twilight so I can see what I'm doing!! Thanks for your invention!!!!!!!!!!!!!

metisman100: cant any one just use a flare gun as a flare gun its not a weapon its a signalling device for if you get lost
StopMoss b: will the .45 long colt + 410 insert work or does the .45 have to much powder behind it?
locke6206: Sounds like you need to STFU and listen to what I was saying first. I was giving an example of how a flare gun can be used as an offensive weapon instead of just a signaling device. I would NEVER NEVER take a flare gun before I would my Glock 23 or AR15 to a shooting match! NEVER!! So listen to what I was saying before you open your trap and make your on troll self look stupid in the meantime. Have a great day!!
Afro Sergeant: now, what about, with w 12 gauge adaptor, using a 12 gauge insert, the ones that you put something like a 410 or a 38 special in and can shoot them in break action 12 gauge shotguns?
SurpriseSurpriseRVA: how is this guy gonna show me that awesome gun and not give a proper demonstration?
TenThirty-Two: Take some of the powder out of a .12g and you can fire them cut down to the right size.
PyroVuurwerkGRP: I have one from ww2!
fdsman: The videos you're speaking of (the exploding flare pistols while shooting standard 12 gauge ammo) Are not with the 12 gauge adapters. They are the cheap plastic Orion flare guns. I'm not saying this one will not explode in your hand if you shoot regular 12 gauge ammo but I've never personally witnessed one explode myself or on video.
dtwow: Can you safely put the .22LR conversion sleeve in this? Thanks.
Greg Ionadi: I have this exact same flare gun!!!
coozy100: in the idea of shooting 12 gauges... they have nfa regulated barrels that you can make then pay a tax stamp. it gets made out of thicker steel..and you have to make a stronger spring for the said latch although some german ones were made to shoot both...but those are almost none existent for that reason.. itd be smarter to use lower pressure 12 gauge rounds.. like the recoiless ones..
bmays002: @69Starmix96 Of course you get scared when you see a video of free humanity. Better sit down and think about what worthless slave scum you are. You are totally at the mercy of your benefactors. They will poison you, they will rob you, they will beat you down. You will take it because you nothing but a scumbag slave. You better get on your knees and thank them they let you keep the knives in your kitchen. Thanks for destroying Europe.
bmays002: @69Starmix96 Guess why you pay a 90% tax on gasoline in the UK. Guess why there are cameras on every street corner. Guess why they have taken away all your rights even the right to own a flare-gun. Guess why they flooded your country with immigrants and pay them more money in welfare then the average working class britain makes. Guess why they don't prosecute Muslims that rape and sell underage British girls on the streets. You slaves would have been better off if Hitler won the war.
saj12100: @locke6206 so this is better than the HK?

locke6206: Yes it is a single action trigger and yes it is Czech ammo. I will have to get it out and check on the markings on the bottom. The color codes are very easy. The color marks the color of the flare. There are different ones though.. Like multi burst flares, single star, parachute flares, etc.

I would give it a 5 star if the documentation wasn't so bad that it establishes limits on the product.
It is great plugin together with the buddydroid android app even though. It is growing but at a slow pace. Are you going to add the friend and group create/read/update/delete (crud)functionalities?

Now when I tag any Evernote with the 'GDoc' tag, it creates a matching Google Docs file on my Google Apps account. Sweet!
Moves Notes in Evernote to My Google Apps Account
sync evernote and googledocs
Connects New Evernote to Google Doc with shareable link to Evernote.
When you share something to Evernote, automatically create a corresponding Google Doc.
This copies notes in evernote to googledrive--ensuring that you can access drives anywhere and have backup documents.
Allows me to use ever note and sync with google drive for work
Collaberation between Google Docs and Evernote - atleast when a note is created in Evernote first. It allows for easier sharing and a way for someone to collaberate on an evernote simulatenously over google docs. (Google docs collaberation is undoubtedly less expensive and better overall than that of evernotes)
It helped me to connect evernote with gdocs
very good
I am not sure yet.
Saving my Evernotes notes directly in my GDrive
Creates a google document with same title and content as Evernote Note
Send an Email to Evernote to Make a New Google Document
This operation allows an automatic backup of Evernote, decreasing the dependence on a single platform. How do I use the free version of Evernote, sometimes it is not possible to access the content without internet connection. With google docs this is possible. PROBLEM SOLVED! :)
Cooperation inbetween Teams
being able to use Evernote to take notes and store them in my cloud drive is very important to me.
Convert Evernote notes to Google docs
It helps me share the same note with multiple people
Copy a new Evernote note into Gdocs
Here is that Zapier function I mentioned.
It takes a little getting used to in thinking about how we can get the various services we use to work together automatically, but I think there's a huge amount of untapped potential here. Happy to brainstorm any other uses you might have for it (Salesforce integrations!).
This function takes any new note added to a specified notebook and creates a matching doc with that text in Google Drive.
For now, these notes are set to be text-based, since Evernote operates in HTML and Drive doesn't. So any images in Evernote would show up as their html coding on Drive. But I'm thinking about how to improve upon this framework.
A Zap is a connection between two apps made of a trigger and an action. Whenever the trigger event happens, Zapier will automatically make the action event happen for you!
Explore Evernote on Zapier
Explore Google Docs on Zapier
See all apps
Zapier combines Triggers (like "New Email") and Actions (like "Create Contact") to complete an action in one app when a trigger occurs in another app. Select a Trigger and Action from the lists to start creating a Zap!
You use lots of apps to get your work done. Zapier lets you easily connect those apps together to help automate tedious tasks.
Join the thousands of businesses and individuals already taking advantage of the power of automation and let Zapier save you time.

I in love with the angle of this piece. It make the picture so much more interesting from that viewpoint.
And the water and Derpy's hair movement looks awesome and realistic. You did a great job as it usually hard to make accurate water effects.
If not for a fleeting moment...
In another setting she could be punk rock Derpy.
