Small inconveniences, indeed.
But the other day, as I pushed the retractable cord button on the hair dryer and saw the cord neatly disappear – zippppp – I was thankful for the little things that do make life easier.
A lamp on a timer that automatically turns on and off every day. A hook by the back door that holds dog leashes. A coat tree that doesn't tip over even when multiple jackets and scarves are flung on it.
I appreciate our automatic garage-door opener on stormy days, the dimmers on many of our lights and the big stack of white terry dishcloths plentiful enough to get us through the week until the next laundry day.
A few others (including some I'm working on):
• Inexpensive wineglasses that fit in the dishwasher so we don't have to wash them by hand. Sure, there are stemless styles out there but for those of us who prefer them stemmed, it's nice to have some that fit on the top dishwasher shelf – even if it takes some rearranging among their fellow juice glasses.
• Fitted sheets with corners that don't pop off the mattress during the night. We have some that do, and some that don't.
• A laundry chute to the basement with access on both the first and second floors. This is for dirty clothes only, please.
• A reliable ice-maker in the freezer.
• Enough hangers in the coat closet (and remembering to restock them before company arrives).
• Baking dishes that clean easily. I might add that the ones that are a pain to scrub often are the sizes we need to use most often.
• Simple white serving pieces that can be used for everything.
• A big, durable table in the kitchen that can take plenty of wear and tear – homework sessions, cookie-frosting, art projects, card games, note-writing, hanging out – oh, yes, and eating. No crying over spilled milk or worrying about scratches.
• Lids that fit securely on the containers.
• An absorbent mat at the back door that soaks up at least some of the boot slop.
• Reusable grocery bags in the trunk when you need them.
• A dishwasher that has already been emptied when you go to do it.
• A pad and pen by every phone that won't wander off.
• Finally, an upright vacuum cleaner that actually fits in the small back-hall closet – even if it requires a little kick before the door can be closed.
Having it in such a convenient location makes it so easy to retrieve when it's time to vacuum up the dog hair.

One man held a gun. The other had a knife. Together, they herded six robbery victims late Sunday night into the International House of Pancakes backroom, where the restaurant safe was located.
When no one gave the robbers the combination to the safe, they forced the manager of the Thruway Plaza restaurant to call the chain's regional manager.
And that's when the threat got even scarier.
"One of the suspects got on the phone and said they were going to shoot the manager if they didn't give out the combination," Cheektowaga Police Capt. James J. Speyer Jr. said Monday.
The regional manager replied that he didn't have it, according to police.
Luckily for all involved, the two thieves fled without resorting to violence.
But that didn't stop the robbery and potential hostage situation from turning into a bizarre 2½-hour chain of events that led the six victims to lock themselves in the office before walking out hours later with their hands held high in the air – as a precaution.
The incident began at about 9:30 p.m., when the two armed intruders burst into the restaurant.
The six victims – three employees, one of their friends and two customers, all of whom had locked themselves in the office to get away from the robbers – left the restaurant at about 12:15 a.m. Monday. They had remained holed up in the restaurant for that long because no one was sure that the robbers had fled.
"We erred on the side of caution," Speyer explained Monday. "We treated it as a hostage situation until we were sure it was not."
After the phone call from the manager, the regional manager called police at about 9:40 p.m. to report the possible hostage situation.
At about the same time, when the robbers were outside the back office, one of the six victims managed to lock it from the inside.
Meanwhile, Cheektowaga police officers who had rushed to the scene found what looked to be an empty restaurant. Officers then talked by phone with the six victims, but it wasn't clear for a while that the robbers had fled, said Lt. Gerald F. Jankowski, supervising officer on the scene.
"[The robbers] fled before we arrived on location, probably within seconds of the phone call made to the regional manager," Speyer said. "But the employees didn't know that at the time."
The two robbers, though, didn't leave the scene empty-handed.
"One of the suspects got an undetermined amount of tip money from one of the waitresses," Jankowski said.
Outside, heavily armed officers, shrouded by a light fog and darkness, surrounded the restaurant. Walden Avenue and nearby Harlem Road remained open, but Erie County sheriff's deputies and Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority patrol cars blocked entrances to Thruway Plaza.
Emergency medical technicians also were called to the scene.
After Cheektowaga police were able to contact the workers inside – and concluded that the robbers had left the restaurant, Jankowski said – police ordered the witnesses to come out with their hands up, one at a time, which is standard procedure in such situations.
The Cheektowaga police SWAT team then went inside to make sure the building was cleared.
One of the six victims later was evaluated for what police called a minor injury. No one else was injured.
"The victims did a good job of separating themselves from danger," Speyer said. "They were able to defend themselves without putting themselves in harm's way by locking themselves in the office.
"We're thankful," the police captain added. "This could have been a lot worse."
After police continued interviewing the victims Monday, detectives provided a limited description of the two robbers.
The one with the handgun was described as about 6 feet tall, wearing a green scarf over his face. His knife-wielding accomplice is about 5-feet-4. Both are black males who wore gray hooded sweatshirts.
At the end of the night, a situation some initially feared might have ended violently was more than enough excitement for Jankowski, who has worked in the department for nearly 32 years.
He doesn't need any more on-the-job thrills at this point, he said.
"I'm retiring on Wednesday."

• Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a syndrome characterized by recurrent depressions that occur annually at the same time each year. We describe 29 patients with SAD; most of them had a bipolar affective disorder, especially bipolar II, and their depressions were generally characterized by hypersomnia, overeating, and carbohydrate craving and seemed to respond to changes in climate and latitude. Sleep recordings in nine depressed patients confirmed the presence of hypersomnia and showed increased sleep latency and reduced slow-wave (delta) sleep. Preliminary studies in 11 patients suggest that extending the photoperiod with bright artificial light has an antidepressant effect.

Recent research shows that the PCSK9 gene regulates cholesterol levels in the blood, and is one of the key genes that drives elevated levels of LDL cholesterol. A therapy that successfully targets the PCSK9 protein and modulates LDL cholesterol would transform the treatment of coronary artery disease, one of the leading causes of death worldwide.
While many heart disease patients take statins in order to lower LDL cholesterol, these drugs can cause side effects. And although injectable antibodies are in clinical trials to target the PCSK9 protein, the need for frequent shots and the potential duration of action pose potential obstacles.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of the biology of the PCSK9 pathway, and develop small molecule therapies, Broad scientists are leveraging high-throughput screening of a unique collection of 110,000 small molecules against this traditionally "undruggable" target.

A large storm system moved through the southern and central Plains during the morning and afternoon of the 19th. Thunderstorms, some of them severe, had developed over the Texas panhandle and moved east into northwest and north central Oklahoma during the early morning hours. Additional development, aided by the low-level jet, occurred into parts of central Oklahoma, north of a warm front that was slowly moving north to near Interstate 40. Rainfall amounts with the morning thunderstorms ranged from 0.75 to 1.50 inches. The precipitation finally ended by late morning, with the warm front continuing to slowly lift north.
By mid afternoon, the well-defined front was located from parts of west-central into central Oklahoma, just north of the Oklahoma City metro areas. Afternoon heating along and south of the boundary allowed for temperatures to rise into the upper 70s and lower 80s. Dew point temperatures also rose into the middle and upper 60s. The atmosphere was primed for thunderstorm development with up to 3000 J/kg of CAPE present and little convective inhibition remaining. Strong wind shear was in place, more than sufficient for rotating thunderstorms, and the presence of the warm front only added to the strong turning of the winds in the lower levels. A PDS Tornado Watch was issued by the Storm Prediction Center for a large part of central and western Oklahoma, as visible satellite imagery showed rapidly developing towering cumulus clouds near the warm front.
Two main thunderstorms developed near and along the front, one over Roger Mills and Dewey counties, and the other over northern Blaine county. The storms quickly took on tornadic characteristics, with the first tornado of the day occurring north of Leedey in Dewey county. Another tornado, and probably the most photographed and videoed tornado of the day, occurred just north of Hennessey. Tornadoes and large hail continued to be reported across western and central Kingfisher county, and across northern Logan, southeast Garfield, and Payne counties (see graphic below). Another thunderstorm developed further east along the dry line later in the afternoon, and the storm eventually produced a tornado west of Prague in Lincoln county. Finally, two other supercell thunderstorms developed further south along the dry line that moved into central Oklahoma. Although both showed significant rotation on radar, only the supercell that moved from Stephens through Murray counties produced tornadoes. Two tornadoes were reported, one just southeast of Wynnewood and another north of Sulphur.
Additional severe thunderstorms developed across southern Oklahoma, but the main impacts had shifted from tornadoes to large hail and very heavy rainfall. By the time it was all said and done, five main supercells had occurred over parts of western and central Oklahoma, producing at least nine tornadoes. Thankfully, widespread significant damage did not occur due to the location/short duration of the tornadoes, and only three minor injuries were reported.

5 Signs That Someone Isn't Actually a Badass
Toughness as a virtue died off somewhere in the 1950s, but most men still like to be thought of as badasses. It's why we wear Affliction shirts, hold in our tears during sunsets and give a fake woman's name when we get whipped cream in our coffee. The problem is that with all this falseness, it can be difficult to tell when you're dealing with an actual tough guy. Luckily, I've identified five ways to spot someone who is only pretending to be a badass.
#5. The Guy Who's Been in So, So Many Street Fights
A lot of times when people are talking about their badassery, they have to make a wild estimate at their fighting record. There are simply too many to count! There are several possible explanations for this. They might have something called critical incident amnesia that helps people forget awful events like getting fisted by aliens or which Tyler Perry movies they've seen. Or maybe their definition of a "fight" is being a dick to a stranger. Maybe they count it as a win when their girlfriends are too slow to dodge a plate? The thing is, most people who have been in a confrontation that escalated to physical combat know that it's like a thousand details taking a crap in your brain. You're more likely to forget someone you slept with than someone you fought. Which is only one of the reasons I like to end sex with an elbow drop.
If you're the kind of person who enters unlicensed street fights, you're either a middle schooler without a father or somewhere far away, not being that middle schooler's father. I can't verify these statistics, but it's a safe bet that if a grown man is punching people, he has a 20 percent chance of also carrying a secret knife for when he's worried he'll lose. Which means that anyone who has been in more than five street fights is lying, dead or known as the Night Stabber to baffled investigators.
I get that when you're speaking to someone who claims to be a battle-hardened and undefeated pit fighter, it's not the safest thing to automatically assume they're full of shit. It's possible you've finally found the legendary real one. However, here's what I've noticed about "street fighters." Every time a new guy at a boxing gym has no "formal training" other than the mean streets, go ahead and take out your mouthpiece, because this is what's happening next: First, he'll take a long time to explain how he can fight orthodox or southpaw, which always means that he can't do either. Next, he'll throw noodley punches at your shoulders for half a round, mostly with his eyes closed. This sets up his finishing move of forming the time-out signal with his hands while he pants about still getting over a cold. If you're really lucky, he'll thank you after all that, warrior to warrior, for a glorious battle. All I'm saying is that as far as I can tell, the street trains you to fight about as well as corn syrup and lupus.
A lot of tough guys won't even guess at the number of fights they've won -- they simply say they're from the name of a town and wait for you to gulp. I never understood using the location of your childhood as evidence of your badassery. Do you measure it by your city's hockey team or how disenfranchised its minorities are? For example, my town had more cattle than people and our education system was based around putting classrooms of children into a clothes dryer and giving the school crayon to the one who came out alive. Does that make me tougher than, say, someone from Des Moines? Fuck yes. Your move, Des Moines.
#4. The Guy Who Trains in a Martial Art That Requires Explanation
Not all badasses spring forth from a childhood of back alley knife fights. Some have transformed their hands and feet into killing machines using ancient Oriental magic. Or at least they're pretty sure they have.
I'm one of them. Officially.
But with all the mysticism and intrigue of martial arts, it's sometimes hard to tell if the Karate Master you're speaking with is a passionate hobbyist or a delusional douchebag. The easiest way to tell is how much he explains his fighting style before you've asked. If a guy tells you he takes krav maga and he's done talking about it, he's a normal person who enjoys krav maga. If he tells you he trains in krav maga and immediately describes the situations where he could use it like the Israeli commandos who invented it because they needed a fighting style that worked, you should feel safe using a punch to get him to shut up.
I have nothing against people sharing their interests, and every martial art has its own theories on how combat works. In aikido, you use your opponent's energy against him. In wing chun, you attack and defend at the same time. In taekwondo, you have a place to leave your kids for an hour. The point is, if your martial art is so magical and complicated that you feel the need to explain it, you've probably only tried it out in your imagination. And if you study your own unique fighting art that takes bits and pieces of what's effective from other styles, oh buddy. Oh, you poor thing.
#3. Guys Who Know Fight Secrets No One Else Knows
Do you know that it only takes half a pound of pressure to shatter a human kneecap and three pounds of pressure to break a human neck? Well, dumbshits do, which only makes sense because neither of those facts are real.
Guys that tell you how easy it is to kill someone with your bare hands think we are only drawing breath because of their mercy. I don't think they're right, but if they are-- thanks, generous murderers!
It's cute when people try to sound dangerous by spouting nerve cluster and ligament trivia known only to them and ninja assassins, but I never understood how people spend their whole lives bumbling around in their durable human bodies and still think they'll die if someone pulls their head really hard to the side or pokes them in the right pressure point. Was karate invented by attacking osteoporosal cadavers and no one got around to double checking the numbers? Or is it because we all watched the same action movies and know that Arnold Schwarzenegger could never lie to anyone?

South Carolina's recruiting efforts surged over the past week, with four more commitments, raising the Gamecocks' 2015 class total to 17.
Defensive end Quandeski Whitlow (6-4, 228) of Opelika, Ala., attended USC's camp last weekend, arriving without an offer. But he must have made a positive impression on recruiter and linebackers coach Kirk Botkin because he was offered after the camp.
And on Monday, he accepted that offer by announcing a commitment to the Gamecocks.
Whitlow, the cousin of former Kentucky quarterback Jalen Whitlow, picked the Gamecocks over Kentucky and Miami. He also considered Mississippi State.
The Gamecocks won the battle for highly coveted offensive lineman Austin Clark (6-6, 295) of Lexington, Va., Thursday night when he picked them over Virginia Tech, Tennessee and Ohio State.
Clark also visited Tennessee and Virginia Tech in the days leading up to his decision to compare and contrast those programs with USC.
Clark is the third offensive lineman to commit to USC for the 2015 class.
USC has had success in recent years recruiting and developing linebackers who were not household names in recruiting circles. The Gamecocks added another of that type Thursday in Jalen Henry (6-1, 200) of Foley, Ala.
Henry made an unofficial visit Thursday to USC with his parents, met with recruiter and linebackers coach Kirk Botkin and other members of the defensive staff, and also sat down with Steve Spurrier in his office. Before leaving, he made his pledge to join the Gamecocks' 2015 class.
Henry has 14 offers, with USC his first from an SEC school. He has not been talked about much this spring after missing most of his junior season with a broken foot.
One observer compared Henry to former USC linebacker Shaq Wilson as far as his playing skills. He has excellent speed and makes plays all over the field. He recorded 159 tackles as a sophomore.
Henry is the second linebacker commitment for USC's 2015 class.
Defensive back Antoine Wilder (5-11, 175) of Atlanta also committed to the Gamecocks on Friday after being offered at camp. Wilder is a teammate of USC defensive end commitment Arden Key and went into the camp hoping for an offer so that he could join his friend with the Gamecocks.
Wilder plays safety and corner in high school but expects to be a corner with the Gamecocks.
Last season, Wilder had 122 tackles and 2 interceptions. He's the Gamecocks' 16th commitment for the 2015 class and the second for the secondary.
In other recruiting news:
Rising junior TE JC Chalk (6-4, 225) Argyle, Texas, spent several days last week camping at Clemson, and before leaving he became the Tigers' first commitment for the 2016 class. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney already had ties to Chalk through his grandfather, Gene Stallings, who was Swinney's coach at Alabama. Chalk also has early offers from Duke, Arizona State, Colorado State and Texas A&M.
One of the state's top prospects, DE Michael Barnett (6-5, 248) of Woodland, committed Sunday to Florida State after completing a three-day camp stay. Barnett, who once was committed to Virginia Tech, also had Clemson, Georgia and N.C. State on his final short list. But throughout the recruiting process, he was leaning toward leaving the state and finding a school with his major, broadcasting. Last season, Barnett had 89 tackles with 7 sacks.
Summerville OL Zack Bailey wrapped up a busy week by stopping by USC on Friday with his grandparents after camping at Clemson earlier in the week. The USC visit coincided with the Gamecocks' first day of summer camp, but Bailey was not there to work out but rather to show his grandparents the campus and academic side of USC.
DL Albert Huggins of Orangeburg-Wilkinson was one of the top uncommitted prospects at Clemson's camp last week. Huggins is keeping a low profile from a recruiting standpoint and is not ready to tip his hand on favorites. "I'm just trying to keep an open mind and listen to all of the schools," he said. "I hope to visit Georgia in a couple of weeks and Florida later on this summer." Huggins also has USC on his list but has no plans to visit there this summer. Some of Huggins' other offers are Florida State, Alabama, Tennessee, Louisville, NC State, North Carolina, Auburn, Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech, Notre Dame, Mississippi State and LSU.
OL Matthew Burrell of Fredericksburg, VA and DL Tim Settle of Manassas, VA were two more top prospects at Clemson's camp the end of last week. They are friends with Clemson commitment LB Chad Smith, who also is from Virginia, and they are giving Clemson strong consideration. "I can't wait to come back to tiger country with my family!! Another great visit," Burrell tweeted Sunday afternoon. Settle recently tweeted that Clemson was #1 on his list.
Another heavily recruited prospect at Clemson's camp was LB Austin Bryant of Thomasville, GA. He has the Tigers among his favorites.
Clemson last week offered DB Antonio Howard of Miami who currently is committed to Cincinnati. He camped at Florida over the weekend.
DB Cameron Ordway of Pulaski, TN has a top ten list, in no order, of Clemson, Florida State, Ole Miss, LSU, Tennessee, Alabama, Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan and Notre Dame.
DB Damon Arnette (6-2 185) of Fort Lauderdale spent Friday at USC attending the Gamecocks' first summer camp session. Arnette flew in, worked out in the morning session, hung out around the stadium for the second session then flew back to Florida. He got plenty done on the field but not enough off of it so he will return Friday with his parents for a weekend visit. And the chance of a commitment to the Gamecocks hangs over the visit. "It went great, it went great," Arnette said of his camp workout. "I wasn't there as long as I wanted to be because of my flight so that's why I'm going back up there next week. I called them (his parents) when I got there and told them I liked it." Arnette said because of the camp he didn't get a chance to talk one on one with Steve Spurrier but that's something he plans to do next week. And he didn't rule out the possibility of a commitment, something some observers thought would happen on this first visit. He is also considering Kentucky and Ohio State. He has visited Lexington and plans to get to Columbus July 26th. "I wouldn't say I have any leaders yet," Arnette said. "I'd like to take a trip to all the schools before I made a top three. If one stands out the most and I feel like that's where I want to go, I wouldn't have a leader. I would just commit right away. Kentucky, I've seen more of the school because I was there longer. That's why I need to give South Carolina another chance. That's why I'm going back up there to see more of the school because I was at Kentucky longer than I was at South Carolina." Some of Arnette's other offers include Florida State, Indiana, Ole Miss, Duke, Louisville, Cincinnati and Wisconsin. He visited Florida State for the Seminoles' spring game.
DL DJ Jones of East Mississippi JC and Wren High School has Tennessee as his current leader. "It's because of the long term relationship I've developed with their coaching staff," Jones said. "They've been with me since high school. They've stuck with me. But they're not pulling away. I'm just making that list." Alabama is second on his updated top ten list followed by Clemson, USC, Auburn, Southern Cal, Florida State, Ole Miss, Florida and Georgia. Jones said all ten schools remain in the running. Jones visited USC and Clemson while home last month and probably will revisit when he returns home for July 4th. He visited Southern Cal over the weekend. Jones said he will take all of his official visits and right now four of those will be to Tennessee, Florida State, Auburn and Southern Cal.
DB Rashard Causey of Fort Lauderdale has been committed to Florida Atlantic since April but that hasn't stopped bigger programs from continuing to recruit him. That includes USC. "My options are all the way open," Causey said. "I'll have a top five in a week or so. I'm still looking at South Carolina, Miami, Clemson, Notre Dame, Wisconsin and North Carolina." Causey has visited Miami and he will also visit Florida State. He talked recently with USC recruiter Grady Brown and continues to get positive vibes from him. "They want me really bad," Causey said. "He's waiting on me. It's up to me to tell him I'm committing. He says I'm one of the top cornerbacks he wants in his class." Causey said there's a 50-50 chance of him flipping his commitment with USC and Miami the top possibilities. "I like everything," he said about USC. "The coaching staff, the academics. It's one of the places I have a good chance of going to." Causey said he'll make a final decision in August or September.
DB Antonio Parks of Reserve, LA is getting close on a decision but he wants to make a few more visits before he finalizes things. All signs point toward Clemson but Parks wants to make sure before his announcement. "Clemson has a great class coming in and I want to be a part of that," Parks said. "They still lead but I have Arizona at a close second. I'm visiting Clemson in two weeks and I'll get a chance to sit down with the coaches." Other schools he would like to visit this summer are Arizona, Tennessee and East Carolina.
DB Rico Merriweather Jr. of Augusta is looking for offers in South Carolina and showed off his talents this week to Clemson and USC coaches. He camped at both schools last week. Merriweather said the Tigers and Gamecocks see him as a safety. Merriweather camped at Georgia Tech last Friday and will also go to a camp at Duke. He has an offer from Michigan State and is also drawing interest from Minnesota, Indiana, Furman, Troy, Georgia Southern and Western Carolina. He would like to make a decision before the start of his season.
Two of New Jersey's top prospects, LB Manny Bowmen and WR Irvin Charles, camped at USC at the end of the week and both have the Gamecocks among their favorites.
DB Micah Abernathy of Norcross, GA remains interested in USC and plans to visit at some point. He planned to visit Georgia Friday and he also wants to Ohio State, Notre Dame and Penn State this summer.
Clemson running back target Ray-Ray McCloud of Tampa was offered last week by Auburn.
2016 WR Tavares Chase of Plant City, FL has a top eight, in no order, of Clemson, Central Florida, Miami, Florida, Auburn, Georgia, Ohio State and Kentucky.
Additional signees for Coastal Carolina: QB Aaron Aiken (6-5 235), transfer from Georgetown; OL Morgan Bailey (6-5 295), transfer from Georgia Tech; DT Jabarai Bothwell (5-11 285), transfer from Western Michigan; LB Kyle Fleetwood (50-11 225), transfer from USC; DB Keon Brown (5-11 170), Oldsmar, FL; DB Devontaye Edwards (6-1 230), Sumter; DL Tarrol Stafford (6-3 255), New Haven, CT.
Basketball News:
6-4 Rayjon Tucker of Charlotte, who is a Clemson target, visited Virginia Tech Friday and was offered by the Hokies.
Baseball News:
With Temple dropping its baseball program, the players are free to transfer to other programs without penalty. And Clemson is picking up one of the Owls' top performers last season. LHP Pat Krall (6-5) announced Wednesday that he had committed to Clemson. Krall made 16 appearances this season, all in relief. He was 1-0 with 2 saves and an ERA of 0.66. He struck out 12 and walked 7 in 27.1 innings of work. Krall was named the co-Rookie of the Year for the Philadelphia Big 5. The native of Dowington, PA will have three years of eligibility at Clemson.
USC signee RHP Brandon Murray, who was a 30th round pick of the Phillies, announced night he will join the Gamecocks' program. "I will officially be honoring my commitment to play baseball for the University of South Carolina," Murray tweeted. Murray was one of two Gamecock signees to be drafted. The other, INF Madison Stokes of AC Flora, was a 40th round pick by the Yankees and has already said he will enroll in school.
Clemson signee RHP Austin DeCarr signed is contract with the Yankees who picked him in the third round.

experts by and large agree that security via obscurity is not a wise
model for protecting customers over the long term. That's
exactly the model Apple has employed
successfully for some time now. However, its luck finally
appears to be running short.Hot on the heels of a newly
discovered iOS exploit that allows access to locked iPhones,
new reports [1] [2] from
security research firms SecureFirm and Intego reveals
that a new trojan is targeting Mac users using a vulnerability in OS
X's Java player.According to the Intego report
the new malware, trojan.osx.boonana.a, is really a reworked version
of the Koobface malware, which has attacked Windows in the past.
The malware acts
as a worm when it spreads and as
a trojan when it is infecting your computer.Users
may encounter the worm via links posted on Facebook, MySpace,
Twitter, and other websites. When clicking the link, the applet
attempts to run. Users can stop the infection before it starts
by denying the applet permission to run when OS X's Java player pops
up a dialogue.If they allow the applet to run, they may get
another warning if they have a Mac antispyware program like
VirusBarrier X6's Anti-Spyware installed. If they don't get
the warning, or choose to disregard it, the applet will attempt to
make a connection with a remote server and installs a rootkit,
backdoor, command and control, and other elements. These files
are copied to an invisible folder -- .jnana -- in the user's home
directory.If the virus is allowed to carry out its infection
process, the unsuspecting Mac user may find themselves part
of a botnet. When they log on social networks, the virus
will post links to spread the infection. It may also send spam
e-mail via their logged-in accountsOther variants of this
virus target Windows and Linux, making it a rare true cross-platform
virus. All these viruses share the fact that they use the Java
player as a route of attack. According to Intego,
other OS X-specific versions of the virus have shown up, but most are
broken or try to connect to offline servers.The malware could
become potentially more dangerous in the future if it is able to
eliminate the warnings from the Java player and/or change the
name/location of the infection directory, making it hard for virus
removal software to find it.While it does not appear that
this virus takes advantage of any unique flaws in Apple's version of
Java, some security experts say that Apple's Java player may have
more vulnerabilities than Window's. That's because Apple makes
its own Java player, which according to an
e-mailreportedly attributed to Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs,
is always a version behind the official Linux/Windows builds from Sun
and Oracle.Apple is reportedly considering ditching its Java
player in future versions of OS X, such as OS X 10.7 "Lion".
Similarly it's considering
rejecting Flash, another multimedia web technology.
Ultimately these efforts may eliminate some routes of attack, but now
that Apple is being targeted it must realize -- there is always a
back door.
quote: It's one of those days again. A supposed security threat appears, and the internet loses its collective brain and starts panicking like Alpha and Omega's kingdom come. This time around, it's a trojan horse thing (it's a trojan, worm, and root kit all in one, though) that targets Mac OS X and Windows. As it turns out, though, the threat this thing poses is not very large (at this point in time).The original report comes from SecureMac, which warns Mac OS X users of a trojan horse called Boonana. It supposedly spreads via links on social networking sites (worm), so for instance clicking a link would take you to a website which executes a Java applet (trojan). This applet would download an installer which, SecureMac claims, modifies system files to bypass the system's password. After that, it acts like a rootkit. It runs upon startup, loads up local web and IRC servers, joins a botnet, employs a DNS changer, and a bunch of other stuff.The problem is that while SecureMac claims that the attack is completely silent, without any user intervention or password dialogs, Intego claims the contrary. In their report, they say the initial Java apple portion throws up a nice Java warning cancel/allow dialog, meaning everything works as intended and the threat level of this attack is low.A side note from Intego is that they claim the malware is 'broken' or downloads the wrong files, implying that the attack could technically work silently without throwing up dialogs, but just not right now. My personal opinion is that since both claims come from security vendors, we should probably unpanic, make a nice cup of tea, and go about our daily lives.Want to be safe? Uninstall Java, disable it, whatever. What on earth are you using it for anyway in your web browser? Oh, and also, this is a cross-platform attack and works on Linux and Windows too (although it probably throws up warning dialogs there, too), but heck, "ZOMG EXPLOITROOTKIT MAC OS X LOLOL!!1!1!" draws in the crowds more. Alas.

SALE - The torch has been passed to a new director of the Salem-Perry Township Neighborhood Crime Watch organization.
Since founding the group in 2007 at the suggestion of former Mayor Jerry Wolford, Roe Haskin has been at the front and watched membership soar to over 200 members and level out to 100, where it stands today.
Cara Milhoan, a Crime Watch member since 2008 who initiated the block watch at Salem Acres, was named the new director but Haskin will assist when he's needed.

Roe Haskin is retiring as the first director of the Salem-Perry Township Crime Watch group. A founding member, he is being replaced by Cara Milhoan, a veteran of Crime Watch since 2008, who is not afraid to speak her mind. "I think she'll do a good job," Haskin said. The organization has about 100 members. (Salem News photo by Larry Shields)
"Everything I've started, I'd like to see continued," he said Thursday. Milhoan said that was one of her goals. Along with letting people know they "are still around."
"We're here to help," she emphasized.
The volunteer group operates under the National Crime Prevention Council and uses some of its material like McGruff the Crime Dog.
A few years back, Milhoan provided a tip that was passed along to her through a couple of people that led to the arrest of a graffiti painter in town.
"It turned out the be a 32-year-old man," she said.
Haskin said the essence of the organization is helping and the group relies on a big fund raiser on July 3 when it hosts National Night Out at Waterworth Memorial Park.
Haskin said its the concession from the holiday event helps drives other activities, pointing out that Wolford would solicit donations for the fireworks while Crime Watch provided a bounce house and entertainment.
"Last year we had our first cruise," he said, adding they look forward to expanding it this year. Car owners set up canopies behind their vehicles and enjoy the day.
"We started a community garden three years ago," he said. The 50 by 150-foot garden is located next to the recycling center and provides tomatoes, green and hot peppers, herbs, strawberries and melons that are donated to the Salem Community Food Pantry.
"We figure we helped over 3,000 people," Haskin said and tabulated the total manpower hours over its first four years at 9,900 hours "donated to the city and over 7,000 car hours" patrolling the city.
"Mostly on evenings until about midnight," he said, explaining that all people have to do is fill out and application and pass a background check.
"You have to buy your own shirt," Milhoan said. "We're the eyes and ears. If you see someone get in your car what would you do? You would call police, that's what you would do and as a Crime Watch member, that's what you would be expected to do."
Haskin said when the organization started up, it asked for $300 to pay half its incorporation fee but was advised there were liability issues.
There weren't any with Perry Township which kicked in the money to place its non-profit status into good standing with the state.
Crime Watch is on the scene to help with traffic, charities, the humane society, the Salvation Army, other cities and after storms.
Milhoan said when they drive by storm damage "if they say something we help, if not we move on. The police are happy we're there."
During football season there were windows broken in parking lots and Haskin said, "When we patrolled them it stopped."
Milhoan attended Salem High School, earned a GED, studied human resources at Kent State University and is a member of the county emergency response team.
Milhoan will work "to pretty much maintain what we've been doing and add a little here and there and let a lot of people know we're here."
Crime Watch is on Facebook as Salem Perry Township Crime Watch.

Enroll Now!
Enjoyed the course very much. I believe this will help me greatly when I set up my own home wireless network.
Great class! Although I have worked with wireless equipment, it was nice to have some of the "background" information to go along with what I've taught myself. I would definitely recommend this class and the instructor to others.
I enjoyed the class very much. It was very informative and will help me in my job. The lessons were well written and easy to understand. Thank you!!
I just completed 2 courses by this instructor. Excellent presentation of material, particularly the analogies used to explain the material.
I really appreciate the depth of knowledge, writing style, and use of graphics by this instructor. By far the best online teacher I've had and I'll be taking his other classes and have urged others to sign up for this one.
The instructor's writing style and use of examples were very clear. They presented a practical and familiar environment that crystalized the concepts and made them real and understandable. Past courses (from another provider) dealt in theory and were muddy and vague - they could have used this instructor's methodology and communication skills. Well Done!
This course has enabled me to get a wireless access hotspot created for the library. (It is up and running.) My boss says I am brilliant. I could not have done it without this course. You are great. Many thanks.
This was the third course I had taken with this instructor, all of them have been excellent and extremely interesting.
Using this course, I was able to connect my hand-held PC to my Wi-Fi home network! I had tried in the past and failed. Great hands on instruction.
Wonderful course!! I learned all I expected and much more!

Obama Touts Manufacturing Institute in N.C.
Updated with remarks from President Obama.
President Barack Obama touted the creation of a new manufacturing hub aimed at creating jobs in a trip to North Carolina today, the first step to fulfilling a promise made during his 2013 State of the Union address.
The institute will be housed at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, includes an array of technology companies and is being funded by a $70 million grant from the Department of Energy. It's the first of three such "innovation institutes" that the president promised, and will focus on researching and developing high-powered electronic chips used in consumer electronics and engines, the White House said.
Mr. Obama said he wants to make "America the number one place in the world to open new businesses and create new jobs." He said the innovation institutes will help ensure the U.S. remains competitive.
The announcement comes just weeks before the president delivers his 2014 State of the Union address, which he'll use to try to gain support for some of his economic plans and where domestic manufacturing will likely be a major theme. It was a major theme during last year's address and the last few years of his presidency.
In announcing the institute, the White House noted that manufacturers have added 568,000 jobs over nearly four years and more than 80,000 in the last five months.
Eighteen companies, including John Deere & Co. and Delphi are part of the institute and are matching the $70 million awarded by the Department of Energy.
The White House said the two other innovation hubs that the president promised will be announced in coming weeks.
And while the president said he would help create three of the institutes, he asked Congress in his 2013 State of the Union address to create 15 to guarantee that the "next revolution in manufacturing is made right here in America."
The White House said Mr. Obama would also work with lawmakers to create a network of manufacturing hubs. A bipartisan group of lawmakers, including Sen. Roy Blunt (R., Mo.) and Sen. Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio), have sponsored legislation to create such a network.
Separately, the president also urged lawmakers to extend emergency jobless benefits. A deal to do so failed in the Senate on Tuesday. Emergency jobless benefits for the long-term employed expired on Dec. 28th and the two parties have been in talks in recent weeks to revive them but are at odds over how, or whether, to pay for the cost of the extension.
"Folks aren't looking for a handout," Mr. Obama said, responding to criticism from some that jobless benefits discourage people from looking for work. "They're not looking for special treatment. There are a lot of people who are sending out resumes every single day. But the job market is still tough in pockets around the country and people need support."
The national unemployment rate is 6.7%. Mr. Obama noted that North Carolina's unemployment rate, at 7.4%, is above the national average.

OK, so the Wings "great play" somehow allowed 4 unanswered goals. But even worse, it appears that the Detroit News has "improved" their website to the extent that they've screwed up the Red Wings forum. Anybody know what those dickheads (the News) have been up to??
3 unanswered, but yeah, I get you.
Unfortunately, I called this loss even before puck drop. I told my buddy during the pre-game that the Red Wings are pretty decent at getting a good streak going, then dropping a game they should almost always win. In this case, we have two blowout wins over the Coyotes and the Jets, and a dominant game over the Penguins, and then we lose off of bad bounces and a couple of poor mistakes by Howard.
I can fully understand the hook he gave though that generated a power play goal by the Predators though. You don't impede the guy a bit, you let him get a better position and the opportunity to pass, maybe even a wraparound, and it's tied right then and there. Unfortunately, Weber's PP goal didn't take too long to happen.
I wouldn't say he played bad though. He had some great saves all night, and then he let in a couple of flukey goals. The first one they had was directly after a phenomenal save. The third goal he almost had in his glove. The fourth one, he couldn't really do much about except create more of an angle for the shot which could have been saved. As the replay showed though, it was a tricky bounce.
Also, this would have been a totally different game had Datsyuk not missed the net on that one attempt. I felt so bad for him because right after that, you could totally see he was using everything he had in the tank to make up for it. That's the type of play I wish him and Zetterberg would show the whole game.
Oh yeah, and Ericsson was absolutely horrendous tonight. How many unforced turnovers did he have?

However, it is more accurate to observe that conceptual development is ongoing (as would be expected in a relatively new area of endeavor), empirical evidence is mounting, many managers find the ideas us... read more
The 'novel ecosystem' concept has captured the attention of scientists, managers, and science journalists, and more recently of policymakers, before it has been subjected to the scrutiny and empirical validation inherent to science. Lack of rigorous scrutiny can lead to undesirable outcomes in ecosystem management, environmental law, and policy.

Democracy Is on Ballot in Pakistan
Political Stability and U.S. Alliance Put to Test in Election Saturday Focusing on Economy, Corruption
LAHORE, Pakistan—The election here on Saturday is a fiercely contested three-way race that looks poised to solidify the nuclear-armed nation's transition to democracy even as it could further dent fragile relations with the U.S.
The voting will follow the bloodiest election campaign in recent Pakistani history. Taliban militants killed more than 100 people as they sought to influence voters by launching attacks on the secular parties that dominated the outgoing government. They have also warned people to stay away from the polls.
The Pakistan Peoples Party of President Asif Ali Zardari is likely to lose much of its support, with the conservative Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif leading opinion polls. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party of cricket legend Imran Khan, who boycotted the previous election in 2008, is also likely to emerge as a major—and possibly decisive—force in Saturday's vote, analysts and diplomats predict.
"A two-party system may be replaced by the birth of a multipolar one," said Maleeha Lodhi, a former Pakistani ambassador to Washington. "This is the tightest election Pakistan has seen since 1970 and potentially an election of upsets." The disputed vote in 1970 led to the breakup of Pakistan and the secession of what is now Bangladesh.
The campaigning was mostly about reviving Pakistan's moribund economy, ending chronic power outages and tackling corruption, which flourished during five years of civilian rule.
Still, the outcome is also likely to affect the degree of future cooperation between Pakistan and the U.S. in combating Islamist militancy, diplomats said.
On the campaign trail, Messrs. Sharif and Khan have both shied away from criticizing the Pakistani Taliban, saying they would open peace negotiations with the militants. The Taliban, in turn, have refrained from attacking PML-N and PTI rallies.
Mr. Khan, appealing to Pakistani nationalism, has also pledged to curtail security ties with the U.S., promising to shoot down American drones and saying that the Pakistani Taliban movement that is launching attacks here is merely a reaction to the U.S. occupation of neighboring Afghanistan.
"Let their forces leave Afghanistan. The narrative of jihad will be finished once America is out," explained Ejaz Ahmad Chaudhary, PTI's president for Punjab, the election's main battleground and the province that accounts for more than half of Parliament seats.
The election, in addition to picking the national government, will also choose Pakistan's four provincial administrations. If it leads to a successful democratic transition, the vote would cement Pakistan's status as the world's fifth-largest democracy, strengthening the elected authorities at the expense of the powerful military and intelligence establishment that often launched coups in the past.
But a contested or inconclusive result could open the way for more interference, as happened in 1977, the only other time in Pakistani history when an elected government served a full term—just to be ousted by the military following a controversial vote.
Even though the Taliban have repeatedly pledged to disrupt Saturday's polls, decrying democracy as un-Islamic, Pakistani analysts and politicians are generally optimistic that this election will be one of the country's cleanest. The independent election commission has eliminated millions of phantom voters from electoral rolls, and barred practices such as the busing of voters by political parties. The vote is overseen by a neutral caretaker government.
"This is the first campaign where the real issues are being addressed, and it is the people who will decide and not the establishment," said prominent human-rights lawyer and democracy campaigner Asma Jahangir.
In fact, the campaign has largely focused on how to spur economic growth and curb graft. Relations with the U.S. or Pakistan's traditional enemy India were mentioned only in passing. If anything, almost all the candidates—and particularly Mr. Sharif—have pledged to warm up to Pakistan's giant eastern neighbor.
"Previously, we said—until the issue of Kashmir is resolved, no economic relations" with India, said PML-N Senior Vice President Sartaj Aziz, who served as finance and foreign minister in Mr. Sharif's governments in the 1990s. "But this has changed now. All of our leaders want to have good relations with India now."
Already, real-estate prices have begun to climb in Lahore, Pakistan's second-largest city and Mr. Sharif's home, which sits less than an hour from the Indian border crossing. "Trade with India is likely to open up if he wins—and in that case Lahore will be the place to make investments," said Anis ul-Haq, Punjab secretary of the All-Pakistan Textile Mills Association, which represents the province's multibillion-dollar garments industry.
Under Pakistan's first-past-the-post system, similar to that of the U.K., voters on Saturday will pick individual candidates in the country's 271 national assembly seats. (Voting in a 272nd constituency has been postponed after the Taliban assassinated a candidate.)
While opinion polls predict that Mr. Sharif's PML-N will garner the most seats, it is unlikely to win an outright majority. In order to govern, he would need the support of independent candidates and possibly other major parties.
Diplomats say that a PML-N alliance with PPP, the former ruling party, could be a possibility if Mr. Khan's PTI does particularly well. Mr. Khan's has repeatedly said he wouldn't enter a coalition with the other two main parties, accusing them of ruining Pakistan.
A winning party will need to have "a very clear majority" to tackle the country's problems, Mr. Sharif said in an interview published Friday in Pakistan's Dawn newspaper. "A fractured mandate, a split mandate, would be worse than the last five years."
Pakistanis will be closely watching turnout numbers on Saturday. Participation higher than the usual rate of just above 40%, especially among the young voters, is likely to benefit Mr. Khan's PTI. "If the youth turns up in numbers, the result will be very clear," Mr. Chaudhary forecast.
On the streets of Lahore, where PML-N won by a landslide in 2008, there was clear evidence of PTI's rise, with the cricket star's portraits and picture of his bat—the party's electoral symbol—plastered on walls and cars.
"There is no hope with all the other parties. They have disappointed us, and there is no reason to bring them back," said Omar Ehsan, a 30-year-old co-owner of a jewelry store who said he plans to vote for PTI.
A street hawker outside, Mohammed Akram, was more wary of politicians' pledges. "I won't vote for anyone," Mr. Akram said. "Let's see who gets elected, and whether they fulfill their promises. If they do, they will get my vote next time."

DeLAND—USC Upstate used a seven-run seventh inning to rally for a 10-4 win over Stetson in the regular-season finale for both Atlantic Sun Conference teams, Saturday at Melching Field.
Stetson finishes the regular season with a 24-32 overall record and a 13-14 A-Sun mark. The loss, coupled with a win by Jacksonville over Northern Kentucky, makes the Hatters the seventh seed for next week's conference tournament in Fort Myers.
The win helped the Spartans (17-38 overall, 6-20 A-Sun) avoid a series sweep. After scoring 30 runs on 43 hits in the first two games of the series, the Hatters managed just eight hits and four runs on Saturday. Stetson also committed three errors on the day.
"It's a very disappointing way to end the regular season," said Stetson head coach Pete Dunn. "It all comes down to not playing good defense. We didn't play well in the field and gave them so many opportunities to have a big inning. You can't win games if you don't make routine plays."
Trailing 2-1 in the top of the seventh, Upstate exploded for seven runs in the frame for an 8-2 lead. Luke Weber's two-run single and a two-run double by Stephen Dowling highlighted the inning as 11 batters came to the plate.
The Spartans added two more runs in the top of the eighth. Tyler Lesch hit a solo home run and A.J. Mackey lined an RBI single to make it 10-2.
Stetson mounted a mini-rally in the bottom of the eighth, scoring two runs on singles by Wade McNabb and Jordan Schulz to make it 10-4. The Hatters later loaded the bases with two outs but couldn't score another run.
Starting pitchers Kevin Fagan of Stetson and USC Upstate's Dylan Parker hooked up in a scoreless pitcher's duel over the first four innings before Stetson broke through for a pair of runs in the fifth. Kyle Zech laced an RBI single, with the second run scoring on a two-out error for a 2-0 Stetson lead.
Upstate cut the lead in half with an unearned run in the top of the sixth, before staging a furious rally in the seventh.
Fagan was outstanding in his fourth start of the season for the Hatters, allowing one run (unearned) on just two hits in 5.2 innings. He struck out four and walked just one.
Parker (2-5) earned the win for the Spartans, allowing two runs on four hits in seven innings of work.
Mitchell Jordan (2-8) suffered the loss for the Hatters.
Mike Fernland led Stetson with three hits.
The A-Sun Tournament is set for May 21-125 at Swanson Stadium in Fort Myers. The Hatters will face second seeded Mercer at 1:15 p.m. on Wednesday.

Visual Studio performance architect Vance Morrison is very passionate about, well, performance. He deeply cares about making it easier for you to write fast code - both through education and finding/fixing bugs in the system that prevents your code from being as fast as it can be. Of course, most of the work here is yours - the code you write is the code you write and if you are doing things that negatively impact the performance of your executing application, then you need to fix them. Now, this is harder than it sounds. In many cases, these bad things are hard to spot and hard to reason about up front. You need help. You need tools. You need analysis. You need Vance!
Fortunately, you can get Vance by proxy: a free tool called PerfView. (By now, you must have noticed Vance's screencast series on C9 that walks you through how to use PerfView. It's a series that will grow over time, so keep an eye on it.)
Oops, something didn't work.
Vance Morrison looks like Bill Gates ?
Words cannot describe how awesome this is!
Pretty sure the VS2010 profiler has memory profiling. Not sure if it's the best memory profiler, but pretty sure it's there.
But PerfView gives an obscene amount of information, and can be run without Visual Studio (you can drop it onto, say. an IIS box where an ASP.NET app is running and profile away) so it's still a win.

Important highway construction projects in Ohio have been pushed so far back on the state's schedule they might as well not be there at all. That is another in a series of caution lights for Buckeye State residents worried about maintenance of roads and bridges.
Ohio Department of Transportation officials previously had moved some big construction projects back on their schedule. Last week they all but parked some of them.
For example, plans to reconstruct sections of Interstates 70 and 71 originally were planned for implementation in 2014-16. Then ODOT moved the schedule back to 2025-33. On Tuesday plans were bumped even longer into the future, to 2026-34.
Obviously, the problem is money. Ohio doesn't have enough to handle highway and bridge needs. That already has affected day-to-day maintenance - and the problem will only grow worse.
Like many other states, Ohio is suffering from newer cars that get better gasoline mileage. State and federal fuel taxes provide much of the money for road and bridge maintenance in most states, and they are calculated on a per-gallon basis.
In Ohio, the state tax is 28 cents per gallon. Last year Buckye State motorists bought 29 million fewer gallons of fuel than they did a decade ago. That translates to more than $8 million less for road and bridge work.
Now is not the time to raise any tax in Ohio. Too many residents are struggling with their own household budgets. Recovery from the recession is just gathering steam.
As ODOT officials are suggesting, it may be some transportation network improvements will have to be postponed or shelved entirely.
Priorities will have to be set. A new study by the Brookings Institute suggests more ODOT spending ought to be directed to urban areas, with less going to rural regions of the state.
While legislators from big cities may welcome that approach, the state's highway system needs to be viewed as an integrated network in which roads through rural areas such as ours are just as important as those in the cities. Another concern is economic development. The burgeoning gas and oil industry here in East Ohio has infrastructure requirements that should not be dismissed.
That said, priorities will have to be set - as it seems ODOT is doing - to make scarce road and bridge funding go as far as possible.

Reviews of A Time to Dance (Women of Faith Series, #1) (1 review)
Reviewer: Leanne Cherry
A wonderfully written, Godly love story about a man and woman who loved each other and then fell out of love. However, because of family circumstances which prove, Romans 8:28 - "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.", they find each other all over again. And God uses the circumstances and those involved to bring unsaved family members into the family of God. Kingsbury tells a contemporary, Christian love story while all the time showing God's love for us and a couple whose marriage is built on Jesus Christ. Kingsbury tells a clean, Christian love story that moves at a good clip so it is not boring at all. I enjoyed this book as I do all of Kingsbury's novels.

Please take a few moments to stop and remember what it means to be an American. It seems a lot of people are forgetting the ideas and beliefs that so many before us have fought, and died for. Also note that what was done in Boston was horrific and I truly hope those responsible are punished to the fullest extent of the law!
We now have a US Senator asking who wouldn't use torture to save lives in reference to the Boston suspect. Not only is torture un-American it's prohibited under international law and a violation of basic human rights. How is an American citizen, or even an enemy combattant, any more of a threat than an enemy military leader who is clearly protected under the Geneva Convention?
We now have multiple US Senators and Representatives that are suggesting the Boston suspect should be declared an "Enemy Combatant". Believe it or not, the suspect is an American Citizen and the US Constitution still applies. That silly little piece of paper is designed to protect all Americans and ensure that even the worst of us have certain basic rights and protections from our government. Have we become so willing to turn a blind eye and ignore the basic premise that acts as the foundation of our government just because it's inconvenient? Where do we draw the line? Do we reach the point that we can be declared an "enemy combatant" simply for not answer a federal officer's question?
The suspect in the Boston bombings has not been read his Miranda rights. You'll note that I said suspect, please remember that in this country he is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Even assuming he was involved, which also needs to be proven in court, we have no idea if he was forced, if he knew what was in the backpacks, etc. The Miranda rights protect someone from violating his or her Fifth Amendment rights (back to that inconvenient US Constitution again). We used to believe that EVERYONE had the right to representation by an attorney, even when it was inconvenient.
I want those responsible to talk as much as anyone else. I want to know why this crime was committed. I want to know if others were involved and how it reached this point so it can be prevented in the future. However, I will NOT give up on the idea of what it is to be an American. Giving up basic protections and ignoring human rights is a slippery slope. If we're willing to start down that path it's a short trip to being no better than those who would attack us. And if it is our idea of freedom that they are attacking, aren't they already winning?
