So I have a brand new 1TB hard drive I want to partition off to install Ubuntu, but I want to use the majority of the space on it as my backup drive for Windows 7. I've got it wired up and ready to be formatted in Windows 7, but I'm not sure exactly how I should proceed or even if this is a good idea to begin with. Thoughts?
Step 1 Create an NTFS partition of the size you want for Windows backup. Leave the rest of the drive unformatted for Ubuntu installation.
Step 2 Choose "Something Else" during Ubuntu installation. See Disk partition Ubuntu 12.10 for details partitions for Ubuntu.
Step 3 See Installing Ubuntu on one of two hard drives for the rest of two drive setup.

Special Order
Ever since the gods of Ancient Egypt were unleashed in the modern world, Carter Kane and his sister Sadie have been in trouble. As descendants of the House of Life, the Kanes have some powers at their command, but the devious gods haven t given them much time to master their skills at Brooklyn House, which has become a training ground for young magicians. And now their most threatening enemy yet the chaos snake Apophis is rising. If they don t prevent him from breaking free in a few days time, the world will come to an end. In other words, it's a typical week for the Kane family. To have any chance of battling the Forces of Chaos, the Kanes must revive the sun god Ra. But that would be a feat more powerful than any magician has ever accomplished. First they have to search the world for the three sections of the Book of Ra, then they have to learn how to chant its spells. Oh, and did we mention that no one knows where Ra is exactly? Narrated in two different wisecracking voices, featuring a large cast of new and unforgettable characters, and with adventures spanning the globe, this second installment in the Kane Chronicles is nothing short of a thrill ride.

text: Killer Moth Introduction Hello. It would probably be a good idea if I introduce myself before coming on to the focal point of this thread; the team. I'm DarkBlazeR, often simply going by Blaze. I've been playing Pokemon competitively ever since the beginning of Gen 4, although have never really made an effort to get myself known, instead preferring to casually play ShoddyBattle once in a while. I did quit Pokemon for some time towards the beginning of the HGSS era, although in recent months I've got back into battling and realised what I loved about it in the first place. I've made at least 20 new teams for the BW metagame, and this just so happens to be my most successful, even if not necessairly the best. Therefore, I feel this would be the most appropriate for a RMT thread. I find this team to be somewhat more offensive than my past efforts. I used to always run balanced teams with FWG cores in DP. This team has therefore felt quite fresh for me when battling with it. Whilst not every pokemon on my team is designed to sweep, each member contributes to the team's in an almost entirely offensive manner. The ultimate goal of this team is to remove Volcarona's counters, allowing it to sweep unhindered. Why Volcarona? Simply put, it's by far my favourite new Pokemon from BW. This freaking bug will kick your ass through a combination of Quiver Dance and its surprisingly decent STAB combination. Even after just one QD, it becomes extremely dangerous. Out of all the metagame's top sweepers, I've swept more teams with Volcarona than any other. Its Stealth Rock weakness is the only thing keeping from being Uber in my opinion. So far, this team has done quite well in the Pokemon Online Official Server, peaking at #5 and comfortably keeping me within the top 100 on a number of alts. Feel free to try it for yourself if you wish. Without further ado, lets get started! The Team Roserade (F) @ Focus Sash Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Sleep Powder - Toxic Spikes - Leaf Storm - Hidden Power [Fire] Roserade occupies the "lead" slot for this team. I loved using it in DP and still continue to do so into BW. The ability to instantly cripple a Pokemon on the opponent's team with Sleep Powder is amazing for any team, but is particularly useful for this team as it means one less Pokemon that could threaten Volcarona. Toxic Spikes are incredibly useful too, as it makes Blissey's job of walling Volcarona nearly impossible. It also helps with wearing down bulky Waters such as Quagsire and Jellicent. Thanks to Focus Sash, Roserade is guarenteed at least one layer of Toxic Spikes before it goes down (unless it got Taunted), which is often enough to make all the difference. Whilst often Roserade's sole job in a match is to get Toxic Spikes up, it still isn't a slouch when it comes to dealing damage either. Leaf Storm hits very hard coming from a base 125 Sp. Attack, taking out anything that doesn't resist it or isn't named Blissey. Hidden Power [Fire] allows Roserade to hurt other Grass types and Steel types, in particular Scizor and Ferrothorn. Whilst these two are setup fodder for Volcarona, they can in the long run be irritating for the rest of the team, through U-Turn spamming and spike laying. Roserade, being a Poison type, can also absorb enemy Toxic Spikes without needing to Rapid Spin them with Starmie, although with ChestoRest on Volcarona it's not really necessary. Possible set adjustments: May switch HP [Fire] to HP [Ice], as having another way of killing Dragonite is always a plus. Volcarona (F) @ Chesto Berry Trait: Flame Body EVs: 112 HP / 252 SAtk / 144 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Rest The star err... moth of the the team! As mentioned prior, Volcarona is the focal point of this team. In about 90% of the matches I won, Volcarona was the one to finish off the opponent's team. I often lose if Volcarona somehow manages to die prematurely, so it's important that I play very carefully with it, and only bring it out when the time is exactly right. However, on a positive note, generally once I've set up at least one Quiver Dance, it's an almost guarenteed victory for me. The opponent will have lost all their checks to Volcarona before it makes an appearance, so assuming this happens according to plan, there's little the opponent can do to stop a clean sweep. I chose to use ChestoRest over a 3 attack set because if for whatever reason I fail to spin away the opponent's entry hazards, Volcarona still has a fighting chance to set up Quiver Dances. The rest of my team also covers what HP [Ground] would be used for. After several QDs, it doesn't usually matter if the attack is resisted anyway. The Speed EVs allow Volcarona to outspeed Modest Scarf Rotom-W after one QD. Possible set adjustments: Fire Blast over Fiery Dance, but I prefer having 100% accuracy, and the difference in power will be nominal after its got some QDs under its belt. Starmie @ Leftovers Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hydro Pump - Grass Knot - Rapid Spin - Recover Starmie plays the crucial role of my Rapid Spinner. This is absolutely necessary if Volcarona is going to pull off a sweep, as even with ChestoRest at its disposal, SR is going to have an adverse effect on its ability to sweep. Thankfully, Starmie does all in its power to prevent that from happening. Unlike many other spinners, Starmie has enough offensive presence to dissuade spin blockers from coming in and having a field day. The two most common spin blockers in OU are Gengar and Jellicent, and both are 2HKOd by Hydro Pump/Grass Knot respectively. I ran Thunderbolt at first but I later realised Grass Knot is (suprisingly!) a 100 BP move when used on Jellicent, yet also provides additional coverage against Swampert, Quagsire and Gastrodon if Roserade bites the dust, despite Grass Knot only being a measly 60 BP move on the latter two. Recover allows Starmie to heal from past assaults so it can Rapid Spin again in the future. Possible set adjustments: Ice Beam instead Recover since being Dragonite bait sucks. It really is that annoying! Either that, or I'll keep Recover and run Life Orb. Dugtrio (F) @ Focus Sash Trait: Arena Trap EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Stone Edge - Reversal Dugtrio has a very specific role on this team, which is to trap and kill things that threaten Volcarona. The three most significant examples are Terrakion, Infernape and Heatran; Dugtrio outspeeds and OHKOs all three of them. In this metagame, at least one of these three Pokemon is present on most teams, so more often than not Dugtrio executes a job well done. As well as trapping these threats, it also provides a fairly decent user of Stealth Rock, which is vital on any team unless you want to get swept by Dragonite. It also, ironically, one of my best defenses against enemy Volcarona, whom my team is very weak too. The moves are standard and relatively obvious as to why I chose them; Stone Edge allows it to trap and kill enemy Volcarona, and Reversal allows it to abuse its Focus Sash; doing some decent damage in the progress. Possible set adjustments: Sucker Punch over Stone Edge. Scizor (F) @ Choice Band Trait: Technician EVs: 244 HP / 252 Atk / 12 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Bullet Punch - U-turn - Superpower - Quick Attack Scizor is mostly here to soften the opponent's team enough so they're in KO range for Volcarona. Alongside Rotom-W, it forms a clichéd, yet very effective offensive core with Volt/Turn. I felt as if this team was becoming too specially based, so I added a strong physical attacker to even things up a bit. It also provides the team with an obligatory Dragon resistance, in which no team should find themselves without. CB Bullet Punch hurts a hell of a lot, and provides reliable priority to keep me safe from weakened setup sweepers. It also provides another answer to Terrakion should I need it, and in tandem with HP [Ice] from Rotom-W, allows me to defeat Dragonite with the exception of that fucking evil SubDDRoost set. Superpower wrecks Steels and Blissey, and Quick Attack allows me to revenge kill Gyarados, whom Volcarona hates. Possible set adjustments: Pursuit over Quick Attack so I can revenge kill Specs Latios. Rotom-W @ Choice Scarf Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Volt Switch - Hydro Pump - Hidden Power [Ice] - Trick Rotom-W is Scizor's partnet in crime, forming the famous ScRotom combination (lol). Choice Scarf allows it to function as an efficient revenge killer to a myriad of threats including but not limited to: Dragonite, Landorus and Gyarados. Trick allows Rotom to completely cripple particular Pokemon, most notably special walls such as Blissey, as well as certain setup sweepers such as CM Reuniclus. Resistance-wise, it provides me with an ever useful Ground immunity as well as a third Water resistance. I generally spam Volt Switch, unless I predict a Ground switch-in, in which case I will use Hydro Pump. U-Turn from Scizor and Volt Switch from Rotom also provide me with a safe way of getting Volcarona into the battlefield when the stage is set for victory. Possible set adjustments: Not really. Maybe Will-o-Wisp over Trick, but that's unlikely. Possibly Timid over Modest to deal with the Jolly Dragonites I've seen seeing lately, but the power drop is unsettling. Conclusion Whilst this team's structure has some obvious flaws, no team is without weaknesses. This team has both incredibly fun to use and has been reasonably successful too. I'd say the biggest threats to my team are Rain teams, although they're still manageable with the correct play. I was considering using a Ninetails, although I couldn't find a free slot for it. Since my team is not particularly bulky, I have to also be careful when dealing with strong choiced attacks. I'm willing to modify the team if necessary, so feedback would be appriciated. Thanks for reading! Format taken from ToF's RMT which was taken from Iconic's RMT.

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
by E.L. Konigsburg
Analysis: What's Up With the Title?
From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
"And I don't want my files messed up or placed out of order. They're in a special order that makes sense only to me." (9.178)
Let's hear about this whole filing cabinet business from Mrs. Frankweiler herself, shall we? When we start reading From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, the title isn't exactly clear. After all, this is a story about Claudia and Jamie Kinkaid, two kids who are running away. What does this have to do with some lady with a weird name and her mixed-up files? Who even cares?
Even though things are a little mixed up in the book, they all come to light in the end. So maybe it would have been better if we knew more about Mrs. Frankweiler from the beginning, or if the reader was privy to the whole Michelangelo secret. Maybe it would have helped to know who Saxonberg was and whether he knew the Kinkaid children. But we found out everything we needed to know by the end, right?
Maybe, in the same way that Mrs. Frankweiler's files are all mixed up, the book is a little scrambled or mysterious, too. Mrs. Frankweiler keeps all her files organized in a way that only she can understand, because like Claudia, she wants to keep secrets to herself. So even though to an outside observer, those files are pretty confusing, she'll always know what's going on.
Like the files, everything should make sense in the end. Everything is in a special order, and each and every single secret is revealed to the reader by the end. So just sit tight and let the story take you where it will.

All Rise...
Judge Kent Dixon is a great neighbor...unless you let your filthy pets and runny-nosed brats onto his lawn!
The Charge
You never know who might be living next door.
Opening Statement
Three Canadian thirtysomethings. A cozy Montreal tenement in the middle of the Canadian winter. A serial killer on the loose. Get ready for a bumpy ride!
Facts of the Case
Spencer (Scott Speedman, Underworld) and Louise (Emily Hampshire, Boy Meets Girl) are neighbors who have developed a creepy bond over discussing a serial killer loose in their Montreal neighborhood, Notre-Dame-de-Grâce. When a new tenant named Victor (Jay Baruchel, How to Train Your Dragon) arrives, the three neighbors are thrown into an unnatural relationship that must be seen to be believed.
The Evidence
The neighbor relationship is likely one of the most bizarre imaginable. You might choose your home and even your neighborhood, but your neighbors? They pretty much come with the whole deal whether you like them or not. We've been lucky so far, having (at the very least) a cordial relationship with our neighbors, and (at the very best) forming friendships and trust that will last for years to come. Forced to live smack dab right next to them, we often hear horror stories of property line wars, unreturned gardening items, unwanted pet deposits, and fence projects gone awry. It's not surprising then that the neighbor relationship has long been a part of pop culture, from the humor of The Honeymooners and The Flintstones to the horror of Hitchcock's Rear Window and its middle-of-the-road homage Disturbia.
Canada is cold and many eastern cities like Montreal seem to get the worst of winter's chill. What better setting than a cold Montreal fall/winter, spent largely in a cramped apartment building, to anchor Good Neighbors? We may think we know our neighbors, but how well do we really know them? Behind closed doors, we largely keep to ourselves, going about our lives and hiding our secrets. The real beauty of this film lies in how a familiar relationship (to which we can all relate) is turned into something far darker than many of us will ever experience. Murder? Yup. Deceit? Yup. Blood and gore? Yup. And be warned, the disturbing necrophiliac nature of the film's murders are seen on-screen, perhaps somewhat in shadow, but there's no doubt as to what we're seeing. Oddly enough, there are also quite a few darkly funny moments in the first part of the film, before it takes a more disturbing turn.
While Good Neighbors delivers its fair share of semi-predictable twists and turns, there is enough new territory explored here to keep your attention. One of the central plot revelations arrives with such a twist that my jaw literally dropped open for a second. No, this is not an entirely original concept, but the Canadian father/son, producer/director team of Kevin and Jacob Tierney have created a unique combination of the familiar elements with skill and finesse. Another strong element is award-winning Canadian cinematographer Guy Dufaux's interesting use of close-ups and transitions between many of the scenes, building suspense and tension.
Anchoring Good Neighbors action and dialogue, Speedman, Hampshire, and Baruchel create flawed but believable characters, making it all the more painful as their relationships rapidly unravel. Take Scott Speedman, for example. Talk about disturbing with a capital "D!" For an actor who went largely unnoticed, delivering fairly boring performances in productions like Felicity and the Underworld films, he absolutely knocks it out of the park here. His acerbic and cynical attitude, combined with his creepy dead-eyed smile sends tangible chills down the spine. Here's hoping he has harnessed something new to carry through to future projects. Baruchel brings his quirky "A" game, creating a character who is both pathetic and lovable. And while I hadn't seen Hampshire in anything before this, I will certainly be watching for her other work. The supporting cast more than delivers as well, translating their reduced screen time into memorable performances.
Good Neigbors delivers a 2.35:1/1080p picture that is crisp as a prairie winter, with impressive fine detail, and natural colors which (for a film that features a lot of winter whites) are neither too light nor too dark. In a dialogue-heavy film such as this, a DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio mix may seem like overkill, but atmospheric elements and effects fill the soundstage, helping to create an immersive experience that supports composer Claude Hazanavicius' quirky score. Speaking of Canadian winter, the extra features are just as bleak, delivering a single deleted scene, a short featurette, and the film's trailer.
Closing Statement
Its relationships may be creepy and some of its content graphic and disturbing, but Good Neighbors takes us on a tightly woven path down a very dark, bumpy, and slightly familiar road. If you enjoy quirky characters, skilled composition, and a solid thriller, give this one a spin. You won't be disappointed.
The Verdict
Guilty only of being a fairly well-crafted little Canadian indie flick!
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Good Neighbors (Blu-ray) a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

Are Sinners 'Hellbound?'
This year we are presenting the Raven Award on Nov. 12 to Kevin Miller for his documentary with a question for a title: Hellbound?. Autocorrect doesn't like the question mark, especially when it's followed by a period, but I'm glad Kevin used it. Because the idea of hell raises all kinds of questions, particularly about the relationship of God to sin. (For Adam, it raises questions about God's justice – read his reflections here.) For me, the idea of hell raises questions about punishment, like these:
Does God punish sin in this life and if so, how?
Does God punish unrepentant sinners in the next life with eternal suffering?
These questions have corollaries, of course:
Does God reward the righteous in this life and if so, how?
Does God reward a life of righteousness with eternal bliss?

Talk:Anti-phishing software
|WikiProject Computer Security / Computing
|(Rated Stub-class, High-importance)
|WikiProject Software / Computing
|(Rated Stub-class)
I can't understand de-spamming this page. It was created to avoid spam hitting phishing. If not for the list of software the page is useless (it's a minor part of the phishing article, and maybe should be merged back into there). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 18.104.22.168 (talk • contribs) .
- If it's "useless", please take it to Wikipedia:AfD. We certainly don't create spam sandboxes here ("It was created to avoid spam hitting phishing"). I'd direct you to the relevant Wikipedia policy pages, but edits from your IP suggest that you know them at least as well as I do. dmoz is the place for lists of software. Or move the page to List of anti-phishing software - see if it lasts as long as List of wiki software. btw it's frustrating to see excellent contributors such as yourself hiding behind IP addresses. Why not get an account?
- chocolateboy 02:41, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
- You're quite right. I'll put in an AfD request when I get round to it. Not getting an account is a way to deny my growing addiction to editing Wikipedia. -220.127.116.11 17:26, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- I tried an AfD, but my lack of an account meant it was thrown out as "malicious" (or some such hysterical over-reaction that seems typical of many wiki-fiddlers who don't assume good faith... sigh.) So, the article remains, despite it being a minor part of the excellent phishing article. Too bad. -184.108.40.206 13:30, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
I don't understand why you wouldn't want external links to anti-phishing software on the "anti-phishing software" wiki page. I came to this page looking for anti-phishing software, not the definition of "software". I found no such software, so I did research outside of Wikipedia and added several external links to examples of free anti-phising software. I did this as a service to others, not in an effort to spam. In fact, this was the very first time I had contributed to Wikipedia - you can tell by looking at the history of my posts on April 10, 2006; I had to edit the page several times as I learned the proper format. If you read Wikipedia's definition of external links and spam (which I have, quite thoroughly), I didn't link to paid sites, I am not promoting one "anti-phishing software" over another and I believe linking to anti-phishing software on the "anti-phishing software" wiki is quite appropriate based on Wikipedia's definitions. One error that I made was inserting my links at the top of the external links, and for that, I apologize. But to have the links removed makes the article much less useful. Think about the intent of the article... 22.214.171.124 12:43, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- I can't speak for the editors that reverted your additions, but in general I favor minimizing external links. As you read in your research, Wikipedia is not a web directory and link collections tend to get out of control. In this particular article, the link to dmoz.org should be sufficient. It is clear that your edits were done in good faith and you took time to learn the process. Use what you've learned to continue to contribute to articles. It's a bit more work to add to an article's text than to add external links, but it can be a worthwhile experience to share what you've learned with others! JonHarder 13:42, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Anti-Phishing Effectiveness.[edit]
"Google Safe Browsing scored as low as 0%, possibly due to technical problems with Google Safe Browsing". This seems common. It'S OR, but Safari was just warning me (on Preferences...Security) that the list was not working and hadn't been updated in 4 days, and I used Safari for several hours on each of those days. --Elvey (talk) 16:36, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
How the software works[edit]
The article needs a section to describe how these software packages work. Ngchen (talk) 02:25, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
2-factor Authentication[edit]
I'm not sure why the reference to Two-factor authentication is relevant. It seems to me as though a successful phishing attack will work regardless of the method of authentication, since the authorized user will still be able to present each of the necessary factors. Perhaps the point being made is that phishing isn't an effective method of acquiring hard-to-replicate factors, such as a retina scan. If so, that needs to be explained more clearly. That principle is also true of a single factor scheme using a hard-to-replicate factor.
If the phrase "almost two-factor techniques" is to be used here, we need a reference to a clear definition; perhaps that needs to be added to Two-factor authentication.--Wcoole (talk) 23:04, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Released: Feb 01st, 2001
Running Time: 114,103
Director: Marty Stevens
Company: BelAmi Entertainment
Cast: Jaro, Jano, Juraj, Riso, Hubert, Daniel (II), David (II), Stefan (II), Petr (II), Lukas (I), Bohdan, Viktor, Michal (I), Jiri (I), Robo, Pavel (II), Peter (II), Milan (II), Radim, Zdenek, Fero, Dalibor, Drahos, Istvan, Jan (II), Karel (II), Kristian (II), Rudo, Borek, Ondrej, Matus, Jaroslav, Martin (II), Erik (II), Tomas (II), Roman (II)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gay Specialty
The Bel Ami name should always have a home in your store.
Bel Ami continues their incredibly popular (and incredibly successful) solo series with Volumes 7 & 8 (and boys up to #349). The freshness and the originality that the series had is a little lacking now, but there's no disputing that the boys are gorgeous - even the "ugly" ones are gorgeous. And they all have big ol' thick and juicy uncut cocks - although the boys' buttholes tend to remain neglected.
Some of the guys tend to just stare at the unseen video monitor as porn plays for them, but some of the guys really get into it - you know who the stars are gonna be right off the bat.
The best session features twin brothers Roman and Pavel (#299 & #300 respectively) who have equally impressive hard cocks (one's a little longer, the other's a little thicker) and exude a lot of untapped sexuality toward each other as they sneak glances at the other's cocks. Lots of sexual tension.

While the military has publicly discussed its desire to develop offensive cyber capabilities in the past, it has rarely outlined its needs for cyber weapons in such detail.
The procurement documents, released as part of a broad agency announcement on August 22, indicate that the Air Force is looking for a number of different capabilities, from attack to mapping networks to cyber warfare support.
The first item on the Air Force's list is "Cyber Warfare Attack" capabilities. For this, the Air Force is looking for papers detailing "the employment of cyberspace capabilities to destroy, deny, degrade, deceive, corrupt, or usurp the adversaries' ability to use the cyberspace domain to his advantage."
The fact that such capabilities have been under development is clear. DARPA, for example, recently detailed a project of its own to develop offensive cyber capabilities. Reports have also emerged that the United States played a role in the Stuxnet attacks, and carried out offensive cyber warfare in Afghanistan.
[ Could an international 'cyber arms' agreement forestall U.S. cyber warfare with China and other countries? See The Case For A Cyber Arms Treaty. ]
Among the technologies and capabilities in which the Air Force is interested include network mapping, ways to access networks, denial of service attacks, "data manipulation," and the ability to control "cyberspace effects."
Beyond attack techniques, the Air Force also wants papers about cyberspace operations, "situational awareness capabilities," technologies to assess and visualize the effects of cyber attacks, and technologies and methods to rapidly develop cyber capabilities.
It is unclear when the Air Force will actually turn these concepts into reality. The Air Force is not looking for explicit proposals, but rather for concepts. While prospective vendors are asked to include a "rough order of magnitude cost," they aren't asked to prepare cost proposals, and the Air Force makes it clear that those submitting concept papers are not being considered for any type of award.
However, the procurement documents indicate, "offerors whose concept papers are of interest may be invited to submit a formal proposal." Overall, the total value for all awards could reach up to $10 million.
While unclassified, the Air Force makes it clear that the procurement is still sensitive. "Every precaution must be taken to protect potentially sensitive or classified material," the announcement said. "Such material should not be transmitted across open-source media like public phone, fax, Internet, or email."
Cybersecurity, continuity planning, and data records management top the list in our latest Federal IT Priorities Survey. Also in the new, all-digital Focus On The Foundation issue of InformationWeek Government: The FBI's next-gen digital case management system, Sentinel, is finally up and running. (Free registration required.)
The cybersecurity profession struggles to retain women (figures range from 10 to 20 percent). It's particularly worrisome for an industry with a rapidly growing number of vacant positions.
So why does the shortage of women continue to be worse in security than in other IT sectors? How can men in infosec be better allies for women; and how can women be better allies for one another? What is the industry doing to fix the problem -- what's working, and what isn't?
Is this really a problem at all? Are the low numbers simply an indication that women do not want to be in cybersecurity, and is it possible that more women will never want to be in cybersecurity? How many women would we need to see in the industry to declare success?
Join Dark Reading senior editor Sara Peters and guests Angela Knox of Cloudmark, Barrett Sellers of Arbor Networks, Regina Wallace-Jones of Facebook, Steve Christey Coley of MITRE, and Chris Roosenraad of M3AAWG on Wednesday, July 13 at 1 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss all this and more.

If you made an All-Pro roster for the 49ers from the beginning of the Walsh era (1979) until the current 2013 team, what would the team look like? Only 1 spot per position, based on impact to the team and/or longevity. (2nd WR spot must be a secondary WR at the time, not just the 2nd best WR1.) Since we played both the 4-3 and the 3-4, pick 2 DT and 2 ILB's.
QB- Joe Montana
RB- Frank Gore
FB- Tom Rathman
WR1- Jerry Rice
WR2- John Taylor
TE- Vernon Davis
LT- Joe Staley
LG- Guy McIntyre
C- Jesse Sapolu
RG- Randy Cross
RT- Harris Barton
LDE- Roy Barker
DT- Bryant Young
DT- Dana Stubblefield
RDE- Justin Smith
LOLB- Charles Haley
MLB- Patrick Willis
MLB- NaVorro Bowman
ROLB- Aldon Smith
LCB- Deion Sanders
RCB- Eric Wright
SS- Tim McDonald
FS- Ronnie Lott
K- Ray Wersching
P- Andy Lee
I noticed weve had a pretty sad group of CB's overall in the last 35 years. Lott counted as a FS, so that didnt leave much. Deion's impact in 1994 alone won him a spot. Weve also done a pretty pathetic job of finding a good 2nd WR after the John Taylor days. Outside the brief window when Rice and Owens were good at the same time, its been pretty rough. Thank goodness for Anquan Boldin.
Id put this team up against anyone elses from the same time span.
Yes, I know, this is very much an offseason thread, but its a fun concept.

I have a headless CentOS 6.4 box with no GUI installed, and a WinXP netbook without a DVD drive. How can I stream a DVD from the CentOS box over the network to watch it on the netbook? (I imagine this can be done using vlc on both ends somehow?)
I use PLEX media server. No head required and it can stream to pretty much anything. Just log into the web interface. http://www.plexapp.com/ As for running the DVD itself... Rip it and put it in your video library on the CentOS box.
I would probably create an image of the DVD on the CentOS box and then copy that image to your netbook and mount it using virtual drive software.
But if you prefer to stream your DVDs, and your network is fast enough, you can always mount a samba share of the DVD drive on CentOS and then connect to that share on the netbook and launch any DVD playing software. (VLC works great)

Altruistic (other-regarding) emotions and behaviors are associated with greater well-being, health, and longevity. This article presents a summary and assessment of existing research data on altruism and its relation to mental and physical health. It suggests several complimentary interpretive frameworks, including evolutionary biology, physiological models, and positive psychology. Potential public health implications of this research are discussed, as well as directions for future studies. The article concludes, with some caveats, that a strong correlation exists between the well-being, happiness, health, and longevity of people who are emotionally and behaviorally compassionate, so long as they are not overwhelmed by helping tasks.

Comments about 'Indicted businessman Jeremy Johnson files court papers saying FTC abused power'
He claims A.G. John Swallow has been under investigation for nearly a year
- Oldest first
- Newest first
- Most recommended
The FTC, AKA DOJ, should be concerted about so called witness investigations if
there is any doubt to the credibility of the testimony the FTC is presenting
from them as evidence.
I think individuals do have a right to question the prosecutors witness before going to court since they can't question the creditability of the witness and their statements. If any witness is credible and testimony is real then prosecutors should not be upset at the accused is also questioning them, and so far many have been cast with doubt that false testimony has been presented by the FTC and DOJ prosecutors of the Obama dictatorship empire.
This should also dispel any doubt about the credibility of John Swallow's involvement being conflict of interest since the FTC has yet to establish any connections. This case sounds like one of a witch hunt by federal agents than any wrong doing so the governor should step in and stop the criminal behavior of the federal agency's manufacturing fake evidence and to imply connections and wrong doing by witness and casual acquaintances you meet at a NASCAR race or movie theater.

Even IF the FTC was overly aggressive, what did Johnson do to attract their attention? This is a smokescreen to divert attention away from the culprit. It's so obvious. His inflated ego makes him think he is so important that a federal agency will go to the ends of the earth to bring him down, rather than honestly look at his actions that led to this point. The arrogance is off the chart.

Everyone is a problem for Johnson except for his actions. Swallow was not professional and should have not done consulting as the Chief Deputy in the AGs office and running for the AG office while dealing with Johnson. $$$$ on the side is not good for the AG's office.

Let's see...
1. The FTC wanted Johnson's assets seized and sold BEFORE a TRIAL...
2. The government does not want Johnson to be able to subpoena and obtain TESTIMONY OF WITNESSES!!!
Are none of you who are acting like sheep not the least bit amazed???
Indictment is not guilty...
This guy is looking less guilty all the time...
And by the way it looks like Swallow was being investigated and so the government does not want to tell Johnson what it knows about Swallow...
