Clay County Sheriff's Deputy Josh Clarke introduces Brazil Rotarians to Forrest, his new canine partner as Sheriff Mike Heaton looks on.
The club gave the Sheriff's Department $500 Wednesday to help with expenses for the dog.
The dog has sniffed out marijuana and tracked down a suspect after a 3-mile chase, Heaton said. The dog will help the department seize vehicles and other equipment used by drug traffickers, ultimately returning many times over the dog's value to the county.
The deputy would like to see the department purchase a bullet-proof vest for Forrest, Clarke said in response to a question.
Rotary returns money to the community club members earn during the annual 4th of July Celebration at Forest Park.
The club meets Wednesdays at noon at Brazil Family Restaurant on West National Ave.

Sewer worker finds class ring missing since 1966
ANDERSON, Ind. - After years of working for Anderson's sewer department, foreman Rich Kelley thought he had seen just about everything.
But his most recent discovery -- an Anderson High School class ring from 1966 -- was definitely something new.
Unbelievably, Kelley was able to track down the ring's owner, Anderson resident Ronnie Siefert, who got the surprise of a lifetime.
The story began on Third Street in Anderson after a basement flooded and the residents needed help with a water line. Kelley said fixing the water line damaged a sewer line, so his team was called in. They replaced the sewer line and, like they always do, vacuumed out all the debris before leaving.
This time, though, a glimmer in the pile of debris caught Kelley's eye.
"It sort of rolled out on top of the pile," he said. "It was really dirty, you could tell it had been down there awhile, but you could still see the gold shining through."
What he found was an old high school ring inscribed with a date of 1966 and the initials of R.S.
"I really didn't think we would find the owner," Kelley told The Herald Bulletin (http://bit.ly/1kXTVzH ). "I visited the ring maker's website, and they have literally hundreds of found rings they can't find owners for."
But Kelley still wanted to make an effort, so he posted a picture of the ring on Facebook, where Dan Simmons saw it. Armed with the date and initials, Simmons pulled out an old AHS yearbook and called the first person with the initials of R.S. He struck gold on the first call when Siefert answered the phone.
"It was surprising that the first person we called turned out to be the owner," Simmons said. "He said he hadn't seen that ring in 40 years."
Simmons put Kelley in touch with Siefert, and the owner was in possession of the ring 24 hours after it once again saw the light of day.
Siefert could not be reached for comment, but Kelley said the veteran of the armed services seemed overwhelmed to finally see the ring after all these years.
"His ex-wife lost it many years ago," Kelley said. "You could tell it was a little emotional for him."
Kelley said in his years working in the sewers he's seen just about everything imaginable from pieces of a Jeep to a hot water heater.
"Usually, we don't find anything people actually want back," he said with a laugh. "This was definitely a cool experience."

Voted for Sandile & co. because I really like this dude because SUNGLASSES. Need I go on? Anyway, I love that look on Krokorok, he's a real coolio. Krookodile seems more BOSS than ever, it's as if this design is made like a BOSS.
I also like its typing (mostly because ground type jsyk) and he came along learning Outrage and has Moxie. Deadly. This guy tops with a pretty high attack and OK speed and HP, with not very weak defenses, though it's not his forte.
This doesn't mean I don't like the others. Ground being my second-favourite type was a hard one, I had to choose between Flygon, Sandslash, Hippowdon, Rhyperior, Krookodile and of course the all-powerful Stunfisk.

Ultrafast laser 'scribing' technique to cut cost, hike efficiency of solar cells
March 14, 2011
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Researchers are developing a technology that aims to help make solar cells more affordable and efficient by using a new manufacturing method that employs an ultrafast pulsing laser.
The innovation may help to overcome two major obstacles that hinder widespread adoption of solar cells: the need to reduce manufacturing costs and increase the efficiency of converting sunlight into an electric current, said Yung Shin, a professor of mechanical engineering and director of Purdue University's Center for Laser-Based Manufacturing.
Critical to both are tiny "microchannels" needed to interconnect a series of solar panels into an array capable of generating useable amounts of power, he said. Conventional "scribing" methods, which create the channels mechanically with a stylus, are slow and expensive and produce imperfect channels, impeding solar cells' performance.
"Production costs of solar cells have been greatly reduced by making them out of thin films instead of wafers, but it is difficult to create high-quality microchannels in these thin films," Shin said. "The mechanical scribing methods in commercial use do not create high-quality, well-defined channels. Although laser scribing has been studied extensively, until now we haven't been able to precisely control lasers to accurately create the microchannels to the exacting specifications required."
The researchers hope to increase efficiency while cutting cost significantly using an "ultrashort pulse laser" to create the microchannels in thin-film solar cells, he said.
The work, funded with a three-year, $425,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, is led by Shin and Gary Cheng, an associate professor of industrial engineering. A research paper demonstrating the feasibility of the technique was published in Proceedings of the 2011 NSF Engineering Research and Innovation Conference in January. The paper was written by Shin, Cheng, and graduate students Wenqian Hu, Martin Yi Zhang and Seunghyun Lee.
"The efficiency of solar cells depends largely on how accurate your scribing of microchannels is," Shin said. "If they are made as accurately as possibly, efficiency goes up."
Research results have shown that the fast-pulsing laser accurately formed microchannels with precise depths and sharp boundaries. The laser pulses last only a matter of picoseconds, or quadrillionths of a second. Because the pulses are so fleeting the laser does not cause heat damage to the thin film, removing material in precise patterns in a process called "cold ablation."
"It creates very clean microchannels on the surface of each layer," Shin said. "You can do this at very high speed, meters per second, which is not possible with a mechanical scribe. This is very tricky because the laser must be precisely controlled so that it penetrates only one layer of the thin film at a time, and the layers are extremely thin. You can do that with this kind of laser because you have a very precise control of the depth, to about 10 to 20 nanometers."
Traditional solar cells are usually flat and rigid, but emerging thin-film solar cells are flexible, allowing them to be used as rooftop shingles and tiles, building facades, or the glazing for skylights. Thin-film solar cells account for about 20 percent of the photovoltaic market globally in terms of watts generated and are expected to account for 31 percent by 2013.
The researchers plan to establish the scientific basis for the laser-ablation technique by the end of the three-year period. The work is funded through NSF's Civil Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation division.

High Precision Scribing of Thin Film Solar Cells by a Picosecond Laser

Martin Yi Zhang, Seunghyun Lee
Purdue University
In this paper, the feasibility of thin-film solar cells scribing via a picosecond (ps) laser is investigated. The optical and thermal properties of thin films are studied first. Next, molybdenum and ZnO thin films are deposited on soda lime glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Then experiments for picosecond laser scribing are performed with different wavelengths and average powers and results are analyzed for process parameter optimization. The scribed slots are measured using a surface profilometer and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Using the optimized laser parameters, the ablation depths of the slots are accurate within 0.1 μm tolerance, the edges are sharp without distortions and slot bottoms are flat. These slots are precisely machined with a high speed, which makes ps laser scribing of solar cells a promising technique.

Arthritis affects each person differently. This fact should not surprise us — there are over 100 different types of arthritis, and the symptoms and severity of each person's arthritis are unique. Yet in spite of these many differences, every person with arthritis is faced with common challenges to his or her independence.
People with arthritis, as well as their families, are called on to adapt to these challenges. For some, they may be relatively minor — for example, arthritis may make it a little harder for them to get dressed or walk as quickly as they used to. For others, the changes may be more significant — they may need help with bathing, dressing, or other everyday activities. But no matter how great or small the changes, they can make people with arthritis fearful that they are losing a very important part of themselves — their independence.
Independence is part of our culture and our identity, and most people place a high value on it. As a psychologist, I talk with many people who have chronic illnesses and disabilities. When I ask them to describe themselves and what they value in life, I often hear statements such as, "I like to do things for myself," "I don't like to ask other people for help," or "I am used to being independent."
Arthritis can force us to face up to and examine these pervasive ideas about independence. Some people with arthritis are able to manage on their own in spite of the challenges of their condition. But many others will need at least some assistance. They may need help with health-related tasks such as getting to appointments, dealing with insurance claims, and researching treatment options. Then there is the personal work of dealing with the emotional and family challenges that can accompany arthritis. And all of this is on top of the normal work of everyday life. Still, it can be tough for people with arthritis to accept that they need help and that, more so than before, they depend on others for that help.
It is important to remember that there is nothing unusual about depending on others. Whether we are working, raising our children, taking care of our home, or dealing with other problems in life, all of us require the help of other people to some extent. It is a basic human need both to give and to receive help and support. We need people we can rely on, and we also need to feel that we help others. In other words, we are all interdependent. This interdependence can take many forms. Some people have a few close friends or family members in their corner, while others have a larger network of people they can call on. There is no right number of relationships. What is important is that you have someone you can count on when you need help.
Different people respond differently to their need for help. Some are fiercely independent, refusing help even when it is necessary and in their best interest. Others find it easy to ask for help and express their gratitude. Still others accept help that they really don't need or that may not be in their best interest. For example, they may let someone else do tasks that would otherwise help them stay fit. Those of us who study independence and arthritis find that people are more likely to maintain their independence when they are able to clearly ask for the help they need and refuse unnecessary help. The trick is being able to distinguish between the two types of help — "helpful help" and "unhelpful help."
Helpful help is the support you get from family and friends that makes it easier for you to meet the demands of living with arthritis. Helpful help can come from unexpected sources. You may find that some relationships have changed for the worse under the challenges of arthritis, and that those people aren't as supportive as you would have expected. Other relationships may have continued unchanged. You may even have discovered support and love that you did not know were there.
Just as we get support from a variety of people, we may receive helpful help in many different forms. The following are the four main types:
You may get — and give — different kinds of helpful help in different relationships. One friend may be a big help in getting chores and tasks done around the house, while another may be a good person to talk things through with. In the same way, you may provide practical help to one person by driving him to an appointment and be a good listener for someone else. The helpful help we get and give allows us to get things done in life and builds our self-esteem.
It may seem counterintuitive, but not all help is desirable. You may sometimes find that even though people are trying to help, they are not really that helpful. The things they do may actually make things worse. This is unhelpful help. The following are some examples.
You can see that unhelpful help comes in many forms. Sometimes it can be unintended criticism; other times the person wants to "help" by avoiding uncomfortable emotions. Sometimes a person wants to do things for you that you would prefer to do or really should do for yourself. If you enjoy letting others help you, make sure they are not doing favors that keep you from being as physically active as you can be. For example, if you usually walk to the library and are comfortable doing so, don't miss out on the exercise by taking a ride from a friend.
Dealing with unhelpful help is not always easy. Good communication is critical if you want to get less unhelpful help and more helpful help. Let's explore one tool that's essential to good communication: assertiveness.
While good listening is the cornerstone of good communication, assertiveness is a particularly important skill when dealing with unhelpful help. Assertiveness is the ability to honestly express your opinions, feelings, attitudes, and rights in a way that respects the rights and feelings of others. Unlike aggressive or passive communication (discussed below), assertive communication sends the message, "I count and you count." For this reason it is more likely to get you the help you need.
At times people come off as aggressive when they are trying to be assertive. When people communicate in an aggressive manner, they express their thoughts, wishes, and feelings at the expense of the rights and feelings of others. They often use a loud voice, and may even point their finger at the other person. An aggressive communicator often blames others, uses put-downs, and does not listen. The message sent is "I count, and you don't."
The opposite of an aggressive communication style is a passive communication style. When people communicate in a passive manner, they don't express their thoughts and feelings directly. They may apologize for themselves, prefacing their remarks by saying, "I'm sorry to have to ask you this." Their voice is soft or weak, and they avoid eye contact. The message is "I don't count — only you count."
Assertive communication treads the line between aggressive and passive communication. Assertive communicators are open to compromise and at the same time respect their own rights, dignity, and independence. Their voice is relaxed, calm, and firm, and they make good eye contact.
In most situations, there are clear advantages to assertiveness. Being assertive helps you feel good about yourself and about how you treat others. It can also help reduce your anxiety and protect you by making people less likely to take advantage of you. Finally, assertive communication helps build respect between you and the other person.
Most people find it easy to be assertive, but only in certain situations and with certain people. This is natural. Are there situations in which you have difficulty being assertive? It may be when talking with your boss, an older brother or sister, or an acquaintance. You should go over these situations in your mind beforehand so that you are ready to be more assertive when the time comes to speak with these people.
Pay attention to your nonverbal communication as well as your words. Making eye contact and speaking in a calm but firm tone of voice help us communicate in an assertive manner. The following strategies will also help, especially in difficult situations.
Don't be afraid to ask. Some of us find it hard to ask for help when we need it. We may feel that asking for help shows a weakness on our part. It is important to remember that we all have needs and that most people want to help. Think about the last time someone asked you for help. How did it make you feel? You were probably glad to help the other person out. Other people often feel the same way. Say clearly what you want or don't want, while remaining open to alternatives.
Learn to say no. An important part of remaining independent is knowing when and how to turn down unhelpful help. For some people, saying no comes easily, but others have a tough time refusing any kind of assistance, no matter how unnecessary. Bear in mind that people who really want to help you will not be offended by your refusal and will respect your right to decide what help you need. When someone offers unhelpful help, reply with a polite but firm "No, thank you." If you like, you can suggest an alternative — something the person can do that will truly help you.
Make "I" statements. What's the difference between an "I" statement and a "you" statement? "I" statements are clear expressions of what you think, want, or feel. They are statements of fact, delivered in a nonconfrontational way. "You" statements, on the other hand, tend to focus on what another person should or should not do, and they can make others feel blamed, judged, or criticized. It is therefore to your benefit to begin assertive statements with "I." A good "I" statement might be, "I think it would be best if I took a rain check on going out because my arthritis is really bothering me today." Another one could be, "I get worried when you are late because I am afraid something might have happened to you." Notice that both of these statements say plainly what you feel, think, or want — and why.
Listen well. Assertive communication requires good listening skills. Just as we have a right and a responsibility to be clear about what we need and want, we have a responsibility to listen carefully to others. Listening carefully to what someone is trying to tell us is very different from just hearing their words. Hearing is just paying attention to what someone says. Listening is an active process, in which you work to understand what someone is trying to communicate and let them know you are following what they are saying. Good listening skills must be learned and practiced. But an ability to listen can be the difference between an assertive and an aggressive communicator.
Say "thank you." When we receive helpful help, it is important to express appreciation for it. Not only does this make the helper feel good, but it also encourages him or her to be there for us the next time we need help. Many of us don't always show our full appreciation, however, perhaps because we are embarrassed or because we have difficulty expressing gratitude. Sometimes, we simply don't know what to say. Get in the habit of letting people know you appreciate their helpful help. You won't get comfortable doing this unless you practice.
Here's an example. Your neighbor says, "My wife told me you are still having trouble with your leg. I'm going to be out here mowing my lawn anyway. I can just mow yours while I'm at it." What do you say? Or your daughter says, "You've been saying you are having trouble remembering things. If you like, I can go to your appointment with you. That way I can take notes, and you can focus on what the doctor is saying." How should you respond? Preparing for situations like these can help you gratefully accept the helpful help you are offered.
When you have arthritis, you may find that you need more help than you used to, and you may feel that accepting this help means you're losing your independence. But that doesn't have to be the case. By identifying and accepting "helpful help" and avoiding "unhelpful help," you can get the support you need without feeling that you are losing an important part of yourself. Your main tool in this pursuit is assertive communication, which includes asking for what you need clearly, listening well, and expressing gratitude.
To get the ball rolling and apply the skills you've learned, pick one relationship where you have been getting, and giving, helpful help. Think about how good it feels to know you have someone who has been there for you, and for whom you are there as well. Talk to the person and express your appreciation for his or her help. Next, choose a relationship where you have been getting unhelpful help. Talk to this person using your assertive—not aggressive—communication skills so that you can get better help. It may take a while to get the helpful and unhelpful help in balance. But if you keep at it, you'll find yourself better able to get the help you need while maintaining your independence.

Switzerland may be the best you can do, but in recent decades Switzerland has bent to the will of the American empire. Take bank secrecy, for example. At one time, bank secrecy was very strong in Switzerland. Now, bank secrecy in Switzerland has eroded alarmingly.
Aside from the purely legal threats that Protonmail faces, you also likely to face attacks based on the U.S. world wide banking hegemony. All sort of businesses that displease the American Empire are being cut off from banking services.
Why Switzerland?
A question we often get asked is, Why is ProtonMail based in Switzerland and are there any real advantages?
We believe there are and in this article, we will share why. The first thing that comes to mind is that Switzerland is outside of US and EU jurisdiction. Unless you host your servers on a boat in international waters, you will need to be under some legal jurisdiction and in the post-Lavabit environment, this choice is particularly important. A common misconception is that the EU offers more legal protection than the US, but many of the same surveillance directives that exist in US law also have EU counterparts, in particular, German law may actually offer less legal protection than American law.
Switzerland however, is NOT part of the EU (a fact they like to remind the EU of every once in a while), and Switzerland applies a very different set of privacy laws. In the US and EU, gag orders can be issued to prevent an individual from knowing they are being investigated or under surveillance. While these type of orders also exist in Switzerland, the prosecutors have an obligation to notify the target of surveillance as soon as possible, and the target has an opportunity to appeal in court. There are no such things as National Security Letters and all surveillance requests MUST go through the courts (this is not the case in Germany). Furthermore, while Switzerland is party to international assistance treaties, such requests for information must hold up under Swiss law which has much stricter privacy provisions.
Nearly every country in the world has laws governing lawful interception of electronic communications. In Switzerland, these regulations are set out in the Swiss Federal Act on the Surveillance of Postal and Telecommunications Traffic (SPTT) last revised in 2012. In the SPTT, the obligation to provide the technical means for lawful interception is imposed only on Internet access providers, so ProtonMail, as a mere Internet application provider, is completely exempt from the SPTT's scope of application. This means that under Swiss law, ProtonMail CANNOT be compelled to backdoor our secure email system. Furthermore, any attempt to extend the SPTT will inevitably fail because the Swiss public is strongly opposed to any extension and an extension could be subject to a public referendum.
This combination of factors means that a Lavabit like situation cannot occur with ProtonMail. However, ProtonMail has taken the Lavabit concept one step further and actually does not even possess the keys required to decrypt user data. As a result, even if ProtonMail was forced to turn over all our computer systems, user data is still safe.
We believe that comprehensive security can only be achieved through a combination of technology and legal protections and Switzerland provides the optimal combination of both. By coupling Switzerland advanced IT infrastructure with its unique legal environment, ProtonMail can deliver a service that is both reliable and secure.

Switzerland may be the best you can do, but in recent decades Switzerland has bent to the will of the American empire. Take bank secrecy, for example. At one time, bank secrecy was very strong in Switzerland. Now, bank secrecy in Switzerland has eroded alarmingly.
There is no real advantage Switzerland has over any one else. We saw what happened with all these wealthy billionaires hiding money in Swiss Bank accounts. Thanks to Mr. Birkenfeld, the IRS now has their asses and UBS is no longer a secret. Nor is any Swiss bank. Once the US gets involved, being as they have the best engineers, the best scientists, it's over. Protonmail is great in concept, but it's no safer than anything else out there currently. The Swiss government is corrupt and bankrupt. Way more than the USA's is. But the advantage the USA has is they have the best everything on their side.
Also, the voters of Switzerland don't generally vote the best people into office. Nor do we, but having been there many times, you'd be disgusted at their "democracy"
Can you say America too? Look at Congress!
You said:
" The Swiss government is corrupt and bankrupt. "
Wrong, check out the results of any reasearch study or key figures. we are one of the uncorupptest countries. (place 5 or 7 of all the countries, so quite nice)
what a complete crap! we stand there as sweden, one of the few countries which has much less than 40% dept / citizen. (check out the International Monetary Funds, Eurostat, whatsoever).
As far is i know the USA has around 100%, Itally around 130%, Germany, 84%, etc…
"More swiss government is more corrupt than the US government. "
Sorry guy thats simple not true.
– we are not stealing data of the whole world.
– we are not surveilling our citzitens without court order (and trial… )
– we are not allowed to go on war. (we can only defend ourselves)
– we are free people because we pay taxes freely (only valid now for swiss people, not foreigners!!)
– we have huge problems because of our success. One problem is the huge amout of immigration which destroys our free, green, nice landscape or architecture-style (we do not want to build 1000 m hight – this is tokio or new york style ! (Also very nice, since i was in N.Y and liked it, but not the way i want to have it at home!)
So, have a nice day, Ciao!
good lines, but don't do the "immigrants are the culprit" crap.
You are wrong on that, *but* the line with the success holds monetary wise. Since Switzerland is balanced and stable, everybody is buying Franken.
But this also has a downside, as you can see in the next weeks, if the Franken won't get weaker.
You seem to like to try and tear a person down but if you are going to do so and in english at that, please try to spell correctly. There is a thing called school ya know and if that has failed you then there is always spell check. For one 'uncorupptest' isn't even a word, nor is dept, Italy has one L in it not two, and what a is a 'citzitens'? Don't cast all the blame on others and act like your country is so hugely greater than what it really is. You are just pointing out what worthless scum you are. 😀 (Not to mention badly educated.)
No idea where you got those weird information from, Switzerland has half as much debts per person than the US and regarding to transparency international on 7. place of the Corruption Index 2013. The US on 19. place.
Get over this 'we are the best in the world in everything' attitude, it's childish.
You should have settled down in Nepal , where there no IT Law which can be implemented besides facebook.
I don't think you know how Protonmail works. Even if they are ordered by the Swiss Government to give up information. They have very limited information to release. Besides a username and your login password (not your email password). Good luck to the US retrieving anything else. I think you have been watching to many American spy movies.
"Besides a username and your login password"
If done properly they would not have your login password, as the login password should be stored in form of a salted hash and not in plaintext. If anything they could reset your password but you would then notice when your password does not work.

Roy, you've said "Protonmail is great in concept, but it's no safer than anything else out there currently." I disagree.
Previously I would recommend tech savvy people use a mail client with PGP support from a live distro. You can also host your own email server and use a local webapp client for encryption support (Mailpile is one option). This isn't exactly easy or feasible for most people. I've been doing stuff like this for years, but what good is it if the rest of the world isn't? Proton Mail is the next best thing and something that nearly anyone can use. I can recommend it to anyone currently using Gmail and be confident that they can make the switch.
Until very recently, encryption was mostly the purview of people in academia, intelligence, and tech. We can invent the most safe and secure platforms in the lab, but that doesn't help much if no one is willing or able to use them. We've had the technological means for a long time… It is usability and widespread awareness that has been missing. This is what Proton Mail brings to the space. This is how they are changing things and making email a safer place.
Let's just imagine a terrible scenario, and say Proton Mail is an NSA startup (this wouldn't be without precedent). As terrible as this would be (particularly if it was discovered), it is still a vast improvement in privacy for most people. We'd see wider adoption of PGP, greater demand/acceptance of encrypted email, and you'd be protected from a whole host of other threats that you weren't earlier.
Ah not necessarily the US my friend…BANKERS are the ones who control the world NOT Governments! Governments are merely the pawns of the BANKERS! Being an ex-banker from "back in the day", I've seen it in action! Don't be so quick to condemn the Swiss…They still are our last refuge.
And Iceland is not so bad; they booted out their bankers and politicians with pots and pans! I see that Russia is cleaning up some of its mess by booting out the predator IMF.
Please explain all encryption used to protect login password and if that password remains encrypted on your servers or is destroyed…
Seriously?? why not just say make the whole thing Open Source??? Seriously you ask that kind of question???

As a former Lavabit user I applaud you in your attempt to provide a service that exceeds lavabits level of protection. I look forward to using your product that will help my personal business grow in a safe and secure manner.
I am based in Mumbai (India) i want to know how do i use yourservice?
Since this is a new concept like to know if you are planning to have any distrbutorship out of Switzerland?
Is Protonmail purely web based or is it possible to configure MS Outlook or other email client to be able to use it?
I think instead of criticizing the ProtonMail team, people should enjoy the hard work they're putting in. Not everyone is capable of doing as clean and clever a job as they do. They really put their hearts into it, and I really cant wait to see my invite pop in my inbox. As a matter of fact, I verify my inbox practically all the time all day long on all my devices no matter where I am. I can't wait to have my ProtonMail account! I trust you guys to do the right job! Go, guys, go!
Can I get an AMEN! Yes, you are very right! Anyone with any kind of coding background should be in AWE of these guys! SHOUT THEIR PRAISES FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOPS because they are doing something more than merely TALKING about it!
Agree. Just got my ProtonMail account setup and very happy about it. Inviting my friends to create themselves a ProtonMail account. Love the work of all those who created ProtonMail.
Very happy to have my protonmail account active, there is trust and there is floss, how much of the code will eventually be floss?
No one has mentioned what a great message this sends to Yahoo and Google, perhaps in the future they will think twice about compromising our privacy when their accounts take flight and move to Switzerland. I'm a Swiss/American and I'm familiar with the downside of both countries. I'd trust the Swiss to look out for personal privacy before I'd trust the US.
Thanks for your contribution to making our lives safer ProtonMail.
This is being human again. Good job guys. Keep fighting the intruders.
This new improved encryption software program is a needed improvement over existing encryption methods. Just to let you know that some computers (HP and maybe others) have had hardware level keystroke loggers built-in for the past several years that are not detectable. With HP back in the Windows XP days, it was done with a plastic DIP IC hardwired between the keyboard and mainboard and had heat-shrink sleeving over it. Now, it may be directly on the main board…a detailed technical analysis would be needed for verification.
Now, there is a new problem that directly affects microprocessors. The following article title should get your attention.
Title: "BEWARE – Got an Intel Centrino or newer processor? Such as an i3 this would include the Centrino, Core2, All 'i series' processors, all Atom series processors, all Celeron series and Pentium processors released after the Intel Core2 series."
About six months ago (November 2013), someone who claimed to work for military intelligence contacted me through one of the unlisted mail boxes. He said that all Wi-Fi, and all broadband modems, in fact all Internet connected devices have two simultaneous log ins afforded by two separate hardware paths built right into all Internet capable hardware, one that the user sees, and one that remains perfectly hidden and cannot be found by any software or anything else, that logs into a different network on the same Internet and simultaneously sends everything you do straight to the NSA. It's a hardware level hack that operates completely independent of software and remains completely isolated from it. This man also had something else to say:
He stated that every Intel processor since the Centrino processor, (this would include the Centrino, Core2, All I series processors, all Atom processors and all Celerons and Pentiums released after the Core2 series) have a separate – on die central processor the user never sees that has the specific job of snagging all encryption keys and keeping a permanent back door to the main processor open to the NSA no matter what the user does to protect data.
Now, obviously absent a military intelligence tip you won't get information on this topic, but there are ways to get hints at whether or not what this man said was true. For example, The Centrino and subsequent Pentium M series processors were designed entirely in Israel and if you think a Jewish nation has any respect for Goy data, other than what they can glean from it, go ahead and keep buying "Intel". Centrino technology was subsequently integrated into Core2 and after that all I series Intel processors.
The full article text is on the website below.
What if a smartphone manufacturer were to see all your keystrokes anyway? Most smartphone keyboards nowadays come built in with cloud-syncing, personalized suggestions / dictionaries. Not sure I feel safe entering my passwords on a smartphone. What if that were to happen for Desktop browsers too?
With open source browsers that will be detected faster than closed source ones. Same goes with operating systems.
There are "Msg/month". Is that going to increase after beta or is it just beta stuff?
Thank you Protonmail team, for your effort in tying to make our life a little more safe and private. Just a word of advise if I may. Each of you, watch your back. There are no limit to what governments are ready to pull as retaliations. Freedom is just an illusion. Slavery is on the rise.
This provides an extra measure of security between essentially warrant less data collection and the end user. By forcing the DoJ to operate through Swiss courts, it ensures that investigations are in fact legitimate and are not simply broad, sweeping investigations of anyone and everyone, which can most certainly include political dissidents, in essence helping to secure democracy against the agitations of the 21st century.
I don't buy this quoted (fine) difference between internet service provider and internet application provider as having any legal basis.
The document TR_TS_v3_1_20121109 "Guidelines for Lawful Interception of Telecommunication Traffic" do not deal with such semantic differences and hence all LI rules/laws apply too to Protonmail..
To be honest, I don't think the people who originally formulated the law would have been able to understand the difference and couldn't care less anyway.
A further clarification of Protonmail's obligation is provided in "Guide to the "Registration Form for Providing
Telecommunications Services"
which states that:
2 Obligation to register
The principles of a telecommunications service provider's obligation to register are regulated in Art. 4 of
the Telecommunication Act (TCA):
Art. 4 Obligation to register
*Anyone providing a telecommunications service must report this to the Federal Office of Communications
And if you read the definition of TSP you will see that Protonmail fulfills the 3 criteria :
1) "transmission using telecommunication"
2) "of information"
3) "for third parties"
I agree that protonmail does not provide internet access (but this is simply categorising your type of business, is not a determinant as to whether you are covered by this legislation or not..) as defined in Section 3 "Registering telecommunications services" , but this is covered by inclusion in Question 5 "Other Services".(catchall bucket..)
Hence, seems to me, Protonmail is covered by Lawful Interception in Swiss legislation.. Unfortunately.
Heard bad news about bank secrecy in Switzerland, but based in Switzerland is much much much better option rather in USA for privacy.
encrypted mail (end to end) is great. i trust in a swiss based provider more than most others freely available this days. unfortunately most other encrypted, anonymous and free providers are gone this days (or you get very techy and out of the box). proton's offer sounds pretty good. proton with independently encrypted (pgp for example) mails in top of it (double encrypted!?) should surely do the job for the near future. it is not about what i send to somebody (99% of the time), it is about the fact to cause maximum problems to ANYBODY reading my 'good morning mom and happy birthday' mail!!! my mail is my mail! my phone call is my phone call – therefore RedPhone or Signal for calls on cell, pgp on every email + protonmail etc. as long as it is email! encrypt, double-, triple encrypt. trust nobody (but your friends – and even them not always). sounds paranoid? it is! so is your government!
You don't have to be paranoid to realize that your government is out to get you, but it helps!
Dear protonmail!
I would like to ask . In the nearly future will be audited this project?
And all of us have to big thanks to help us keep the privacy.
God give you power to keep this project alive!
Hi, Knowledge base does not tell me anything about "Encrypt for Outside Users" sounds important but in Safari there is no other info. This is a great service but be even greater with a guide to this and a few other bits of assumed knowledge. Also wonder how you pay the wages? I see crowd funding and the venture capital news but not sure of the business model. The TED TALK was awesome …. Thanks JY
Just found https://protonmail.com/support This does have the info – thanks – all makes sense now. But before I found "blog" Knowledge Base https://protonmail.com/blog/category/knowledge-base/ Perhaps a clearer link to the real Knowledge Base might help?
Does it work under Tor ?
It makes me happy seeing that there are other people really concern about privacy and doing something about it. Great work guys!
Why double encryption is used ? (i.e. first encryption by user & other one is by secure storage).
What advantages are you getting/what threats are addressed by the doing two times encryption.
If i understood correctly the keys used for secure storage of user encrypted data will be with service provider and email are encrypted with user passphrase.
With that you don't lost your account/identity if you lose your password, just your mailbox
Dear Team,
I don't want to see a spam in my mail box in the coming future, I hope you will maintain those kind of technical standards, keep working hard, all the best.
Thank you.
It is wonderful to see how many pro U.S. comments about the Swiss based email provider. It shows you have a problem. If you think, Switzerland is as U.S., go back to Yahoo and Google and do not mix crime and privacy.
I am not a professional. However My understanding is 'Nothing Humans makes is safe for Humans'. Comments pls
Is this mail is secure for my Facebook and twitter account.
Cant stop to say I love u protonmail!
Plz dont leave gov eyesdroping on us. A paranoid mode 2FA I would use.
Wie ist bewertet ihr die Sicherheit eures Dienstes vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Gesetzgebung zur Überwachung, Randdatenspeicherung, "Staatstrojanern", etc. in der Schweiz? Ich bitte um eine Stellungnahme. Vielen Dank.
It is necessary to having protonmails to communicate with each other

Many in the academic community despise college rankings and the implicit associated "grading" of universities. This is terribly ironic since universities depend on metrics such as SAT scores, high school grades, GRE tests and the like to assess the competency of students for admission. Likewise, they use student grades, faculty teaching evaluations and endowment growth figures as metrics to compare students, faculty and institutions with one another.

impressionAn advertisement's appearance on an accessed Web page. For example, if the page you're on shows three ads, that's three impressions. Advertisers use impressions to measure the number of views their ads receive, and publishers often sell ad space according to impressions. (It can be tough to know, though, whether an impression really means a visitor saw the ad, since they could be browsing without graphics or might not have scrolled down far enough.) Impressions are tracked in a log maintained by a site server and are often sold on a cost per thousand (CPM) basis.

We were on the way to Kasbah Telouet, mountain stronghold of the Glaoui clan, three hours' drive south of Marrakech. In the summer, this is a popular trip out of town. In the winter there are fewer coaches, but just as many hazards to negotiate. The French Foreign Legion constructed the road in the '30s, as they sought to extend colonial rule over Morocco's hinterland. Telouet, armed, dangerous, some 7,000ft above sea level and run by an anti-French fanatic, Hammou, was considered a sufficient threat for the road builders to detour round it. Yet only 25 years later it was abandoned, and when we finally arrived we found a picturesque semi-ruin undergoing a piecemeal restoration. Superbly carved ceilings sagged; tiled walls bulged; birds sat on the green glazed roof. In the background the mountains were still and unperturbed. A Berber buy called Omar showed us round, then shared a lunch of bread, cheese and mint tea with us. Progress seemed to have stalled here, in a good way. The kasbah was gently crumbling back into the soil: another chapter of Morocco's history closing.
Marrakech has always had a certain glamorous cachet. When Winston Churchill visited Telouet in the '30s it was at the invitation of Hammou's uncle, Thami El Glaoui, 'Lord of the Atlas': a tribal warlord installed by the French to run Marrakech. The city already held a fascination for Europeans, and El Glaoui played up to his role as a mysterious Berber chieftain in between rounds of golf on his lavishly appointed and well-watered links.
This 'local colour' has remained the one constant as ideas about what is charming or chic in Marrakech have changed over the years. Churchill might have found plenty of subject matter here, but he had reservations. 'Although the native city is full of attractive spots, the crowds, the smells and the general discomfort have repelled me,' he wrote to his wife in the '30s. Luckily for the city, and the modern visitor, this 'discomfort' has not been entirely eradicated. Despite a clampdown on the most aggressive hawkers by the tourist police, the souks are still a largely unmoderated free-for-all. Chickens are butchered in the street, and a woman with a bandaged nose wished us 'Bonsoir' as she squatted to urinate near the entrance to our riad. The olfactory GBH of the egg market on a hot day remains a terrible memory. Jemaa El Fna is a riot round the clock: crowds gather around storytellers and a whole brigade of hot-food vendors set up and take down their stalls every night. There's no shortage of tat for tourists and grumpy monkeys to be snapped with, but this is mostly window-dressing; the Medina works to its own needs, and though full-on, is generally good-natured and very safe.
The explosion of riads – splendid courtyarded townhouses – in the past decade has made these the norm when it comes to choosing decent accommodation and has ensured Marrakech a steady supply of tourist dirhams. Churchill preferred the cloistered precincts of La Mamounia (Ave Bab Jedid; +212 524 388 600): for decades Marrakech's poshest destination hotel. It's still going strong, though after a recent revamp has lost much of its colonial character, and stands in part as a reminder of an era when the personal touch was not high up a list of hotel's priorities. Now its snooty airs seem an anachronism: like furs and titles, there's something faintly embarrassing about them. The gardens are still worth visiting, though they won't let you in to them without a table reservation. Instead, visit the Majorelle Gardens on Avenue Yacoub El Mansour, surrounding a villa owned by the late Yves Saint Laurent. They evoke the jet-set Marrakech, and are open to all (often too many): dense planting, delicate pools and shaded paths create a tranquil haven, while 'Majorelle Blue' has established itself firmly on the Moroccan palette.
Our taste for '60s glamour piqued, we decamped to Marrakech's other hospitality institution, Es Saadi (Rue Ibrahim El Manzini; +212 24 44 88 11) – the Rolling Stones famously stayed in the hotel. 'They were on the fifth floor, and we put no one on the fourth,' said Elisabeth Bauchet-Bouhal, daughter of Es Saadi's founder. With its mixed drinks and Dunhill cigarettes behind the bar, the place has a Graham Greene-ish air, though it's also home to the city's hippest club, Theatro. It's a reminder that the Medina, with its souks and smells and omnipresent motorbikes millimetres from disaster, is not everyone's idea of a romantic idyll. Chic Moroccans and many visitors never set foot in the Medina, and Es Saadi was full of badly dressed but evidently well-off Russians who didn't look like they were about to haggle over a pair of pointy yellow leather slippers any time soon.
The 'historic' in Marrakech is often packaged to visitors through its markets, palaces, mosques and museums, and these do offer compelling reasons to visit. Equally, the light and the landscape captivated both Churchill and Hassan El Glaoui, both powerful men from very different backgrounds who were happy to find inspiration in a culture that had not changed for hundreds of years. But the ongoing story of Marrakech is just as engaging, and the way it has been interpreted over the past century through different ideas of travel, tourism, cachet and cool has a lot to reveal about our attitudes to the 'foreign', especially if it's right on our doorstep. It may have a film festival and an art biennale now, but the heart of the place remains at a more elemental level: in its light and earth and water, and the importance they hold for its population scratching a living.
'People say, "Oh, Marrakech has changed, it's not the same,"' said Bauchet-Bouhal, 'but why should it be? It's like different generations: a grandmother, mother and daughter.'
Need to knowGetting there
Emirates flies from Dubai to Marrakech via Casablanca, from Dhs4,430 return including taxes.
Where to stay
Riad Kaïss is a superb riad arranged across three floors and two courtyards, with Fez-style tilework, a plunge pool and on-site cookery school. Well situated in the Medina, it's the epitome of Marrakech sophistication. Doubles from Dhs718.
65 Derb Jedid (+212 24 44 01 41).
Riad Dar Fakir is coolly contemporary, and featured in British reality TV show Made in Chelsea. Doubles Dhs622.
16 Derb Abou El Fadali (+212 524 44 11 00).
Where to Eat & drink
The food may be a tasteful update of traditional Moroccan dishes, and the service is impeccable, but Le Salama (40 Rue des Banques; +212 524 39 13 00) is about one thing: being seen. This restaurant and bar is attracting hip locals back into the Medina. Still a laugh, if you approach it in the right spirit. Grand Café de la Poste (Ave Imam Mailk; +212 524 43 30 38) offers a touch of colonial swagger, plus well-priced classic dishes and mixed drinks.
Dubai to Morocco
Flight time: Nine hours to Casablanca, plus 45 minutes to Marrakech

For all the accomplishments achieved by Mariano Rivera, one record eludes him, the single-season saves record. Generally, I consider the 'SAVE' statistic to be the most overrated number in baseball. However, the final season in the illustrious career of the greatest closer ever should warrant a new standard. Francisco Rodriguez established the current MLB-record of 62 saves during the 2008 season for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. "K-Rod" set the mark by converting ninety-percent (62 of 69) of his save opportunities. In 2013, the New York Yankees have played 39 games, 24.1% of the schedule.
