Reviews of this property
We were met by Katarina who was very pleasant but not much help. Her English was limited but she managed to convey what we needed to know with our limited German. But it would have been helpful to get some local tips, like the fact that all stores are closed on Sunday. We also had no way of contacting her, so when we ran out of TP and found the stores closed, we had a big problem! There were very few staples in the kitchen, just dishes. The apartment is nicely located and looked as it does in the photos.
RAS. Consistent with the description. The apartment is well located and quiet thanks to double glazing. Cons: The toilet leaked, 2 bedrooms 3 are actually a double room equipped for sleeping.
We appreciate the dishwasher with pods provided and plenty of towels.
RAS. Conforme à la description. L'appart est bien situé et silencieux grâce aux doubles vitrages. Bémol: les toilettes fuyaient; 2 chambres sur 3 sont en fait un double salon équipé pour dormir.
On apprécie le lave vaisselle avec les dosettes fournies, ainsi que l'abondance de linge de toilette.
The apartment is well, attention is also fine. It has a metro station next door and around the block a supermarket.
El apartamento está bien, la atención también está bien. Tiene una estación de metro al lado, y a la vuelta de la manzana hay un supermercado.
the apartment is spacious. a little eccentric but very well served by public transport. this is not the palace sissi, but it is a good quality / price ratio.
l'appartement est spacieux. un peu excentré mais très bien desservi par les transports en commun. c'est pas le palais de sissi, mais c'est un bon rapport qualité/prix.
Our stay was pleasant except for the constant traffic noise, even at night. The apartment is located in a strategic place to visit the city, just a few steps away is a supermarket stocked (Eurospar), there is a convenient subway line right at the corner of the building. The apartment comfortably accommodates 5 people and is very spacious.
Il nostro soggiorno è stato gradevole, eccetto per il rumore del traffico continuo anche nelle ore notturne. L'appartamento si trova in un posto strategico per visitare la cittá, a pochi passi si trova un supermercato fornitissimo (Eurospar); c'è una comoda linea della metropolitana proprio all'angolo del palazzo. L'appartamento ospita comodamente 5 persone ed è molto spazioso.
Everything was great. From the pick up at the car for adoption. Friendly and Clean, supermarket around the corner. Any time. Gerhard

Die Wohnung war sehr zentral gelegen und schön eingerichtet mit Blick auf den Stephansdom. Der Kontakt zu unseren Gastgebern war sehr freundlich und verlief reibungslos.

I have tried a few times....I looked for an e-mail address for Pierce but had no luck?
I have one of their electric un-capping knifes ( 220/240 V - I'm in Australia) and it is a good one. I can't find an e-mail address for them. Surely they are past snail mail? Or an agent selling the model would be a help too. Thanks!!

Learning Python (Again...)
Im re-starting to learn the Python Scripting language as it seems to be a wise choice. I already know a little Python (note i said RE-starting) and some VB 6 but from reading the forums that seems bad for my 'health'.
My question to you all is as follows: What are the decent books that i could acquire too learn Python? I have bought one and it diddnt particulary grab me, i ended up stopping with the language after a while as i felt i had no direction. I understand that you have better/bigger fish to fry, for that i thank you far any and all input you may provide me with.
Many thanks,
the complete and utter n00b.

By Marcia Mattingly
UTSA Alumni Programs
(Jan. 26, 2006)--The running shoes of participants in the UTSA Alumni Association Diploma Dash 5K Run and Fitness Walk will hit the pavement at 9 a.m., Saturday, Feb. 11 at the Convocation Center on the 1604 Campus.
Celebrating its 22nd year, the UTSA 5K run and fitness walk raises money for student scholarships and other alumni programs and services.
Today's headlines

- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up

New San Antonio City Manager Sheryl Sculley, a marathon runner, will be a special guest at the race and will fire the starting gun. An official UTSA 2006 Homecoming Week event, the race has the prestige of serving as San Antonio's City Championship Race with a USATF-certified course. USA Track and Field is the national governing body for track and field, long-distance running and race walking in the United States.
"We are expecting a record number of participants this year," said Tom Vaello, UTSA '80, Diploma Dash 2006 chair. "After all, it's an event for both the serious competitor and the weekend jogger or walker." Additionally, Vaello is the Alumni Association board director and owner of Right Image Printing.
Early registration through Feb. 8 is $20, or at 8 a.m. on race day for $30. Registration for UTSA students with UTSACard is $10 through Feb. 8 at the Office of Alumni Programs in the University Center, 1604 Campus.
The presenting sponsor again this year is The Argonaut Group Inc., a San Antonio-based national specialty underwriter, and a Pacesetter sponsor is The Capital Group Companies. Other sponsors are Humana, Valero Energy Corp., H-E-B, Liberty Mutual Group, ING Financial Services, Marmon Mok, Right Images Printing, Roger Soler's Sports, Security Service Federal Credit Union, Stoneybrooke.net Vacation Home and Iniguez Athletic Advertising and Promotion
Food and beverage providers for Diploma Dash include Alamo Café, Great Harvest Bread, H-E-B, Hershey, Oak Farms Dairy, Pepsi, Starbucks and Whole Foods Market.
A variety of activities is planned for runners and their families, including a wellness area for health screening and interactive assessments, children's activities and appearances by the UTSA cheerleaders and Rowdy Roadrunner, the UTSA mascot.
Each runner receives a long-sleeved t-shirt. Medals will be awarded in 13 age categories in addition to Clydesdale and Filly divisions. Plaques and cash awards are the top prizes for men and women.
The Corporate Team Challenge and the ROTC Challenge also are popular aspects of the race. A new category, Corporate Partner, recognizes companies that want to contribute without an official race team.
Register online at the Diploma Dash 5K Run and Fitness Walk Web site or call (210) 458-4133 to request a brochure and entry form. Entry forms also are available at area running stores and local sponsors.


text: Remember that Willingham was hired in the wake of the George O'Leary resume snafu. I think Notre Dame took a chance because they were backed into a corner. We looked stupid with the O'Leary thing but if we hire a black coach, we'll look like heroes in the name of social justice. There are about six black head coaches at 119 Division I football programs. Yet, there are a large percentage of black players on the field. College football is one of the worst areas of diversity in the U.S. as far as leadership positions go. Not many black ADs out there either. There has always been the feeling in this country that blacks possess more physical abilities while whites possess more mental abilities. These untrue stereotypes keep former black athletes in subordinate positions like assistant coach and an assistant AD. And the ol' boys network keeps the machine rolling. Been studying these issues the past four years. It's pretty bad on the women's side, too. Sure, the Willingham thing wasn't overt racism (we can prove nothing), but Weis sure got a long extension ASAP and Willingham was left twisting in the wind pretty much his whole tenure in South Bend. I'm glad Ty is back out on the West Coast. I hope he produces some great Washington teams and embarrasses Notre Dame teams in future bowl games.


text: we switch out all our hives onto power washed pallets. we pick up each hive on a cart and brush off all ants spiders dirt etc. with a toilet brush. the pallets are on tarps in the beeyards and then on black plastic in the semi holding yard. there are ports that are better than others to go through. going through needles would be foolish

One Bicyclist Killed And Another Injured After Getting Hit By A Car
SHASTA COUNTY, Calif. - A man hit two bicyclists with his car causing fatal injuries to one, and minor injuries to the other around 7:30 p.m. Saturday on State Road 89 in Shasta County.
The two bicyclists from Susanville were riding three-wheel, recumbent style bikes south on State Road 89 just north of State Road 44. The driver, 37 year-old Pedro Sanchez of Sparks, Nevada was also heading south in his 2007 Jeep Laredo. CHP say Sanchez lost control of his car when he tried to slow down, and that's when his car hit the two bicyclists. Sanchez first hit the man riding his bike, causing him to get ejected and suffer fatal injuries. Officers say Sanchez's car then hit the woman on her bike, dragging her for about 70 feet before stopping.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene, his name is being withheld. The woman, 42 year-old Heather Loy was taken to Mayers Hospital in Fall River Mills for minor injuries. Sanchez was not injured.


text: I just bought a 2005 Silverado. It was a great deal and well taken care of, however, the stock stereo has a couple of the lights behind the buttons out and it won't load, read, or eject a disc. The truck has the Bose audio system in it so I figured I might as well get an aftermarket stereo instead of replacing with an OEM one in order to get more features/options as well as improve the overall sound. I've found a double DIN unit I really like but before I go through with purchasing it I was hoping I could get some pics of aftermarket installs from other members in order to get a better idea of how a double DIN versus single DIN unit will look in my truck. I'm initially leaning toward a double DIN unit because it will fill in the stock opening more completely and hopefully that will help avoid getting a mismatched look between the dash color and texture and the insert's color and textures.


text: Any other Bill Bailey fans out there? I got a ticket to see his show coming to Melbourne in July. I was going to buy a ticket for myself as birthday treat but my mum said she would buy it for me (what a good mum!). Or more like I buy it and she will give me some money towards it. And it is a front row seat. Anyway I loved him in Black Books and think he is a musical genius. One of those comedians who is genuinely funny and incredibly clever. So looking forward to it.


text: This is what I am looking into doing.First pic is my truck second pic is close to what I am looking into doing. It will cost about $350 to get done but if I do it myself It would cost $80. I have painted cars in the past but not how I am looking into doing it. Some of you will probable give me a hard time about how I plane on it but I think I can do it. Just want to know if any one else has done this. I plan on using aerosol cans. This is my shopping cart. do you think it is enough to cover: 2 coats of plastic adhesive, 1-2 coats primer and 3-4 coats of paint and clear. 1) Qty 1: AER-AP - 12 oz Aerosol Plastic Parts Adhesion Promoter - $7.95 ea.2) Qty 2: AER-CC - 12 oz Aerosol High Gloss Clear Coat - $7.95 ea. 3) Qty 2: AER-BC - 12 oz Aerosol Spray Paint, 2008 Chevrolet Silverado: Olympic White 50 - $19.95 ea. 4) Qty 1: CNGN - Aerosol Spray Can Trigger - $3.95 ea. 5) Qty 1: PSOLV - Prep Solvent - $2.76 ea. 6) Qty 1: AER-PR-White - 12 oz.

Countertrend: Google, Economist Flee from Climate Reality
Richard Littlemore | July 25, 2013
By Richard Littlemore • Thursday, July 25, 2013 - 08:00
The once-authoritative Economist news magazine has set fire to its credibility, again, by reporting that global warming has slowed to the point where one columnist argues that we should wait "a decade or two" before instituting any policy measures to ameliorate the threat. At the same time, Google, a company that advertises its corporate philosophy as "Do No Evil," has decided to snuggle up to the climate change denial community, splashing money at the likes of Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe and the "think" tank, the Competitive Enterprise Institute.
This kind of blithe disregard for fact or prudence was more in style a couple of years ago, when Denier-in-Chief George W. Bush was in the White House and Inhofe was Chair of the Republican-dominated Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works. But how can you account for so irresponsible and reactionary a performance - from theoretically credible sources - in 2013?
One potential explanation is the loveable naivety of the scientific and environmental community - the kind of people who are always willing, in good faith, to join a conversation about a "climate-change slowdown." The very phrase is like red meat to the Anthony Watts types who deny climate science as part of their business plan. Looking, for example, at the current state of Arctic sea ice and the predictions for the $60-trillion time bomb that will detonate as that ice disappears, any talk of such an actual slowdown is absurd.

30 Years Ago: The First Compact Disc Released
Thirty years ago today, the first commercial compact disc was released in Japan, heralding a quantum shift in the way fans would consume music for the next two decades — and setting off a fresh torrent of profits for the record industry.
That compact disc was Billy Joel's '52nd Street,' already a multiplatinum hit since its original release in 1978. As Time points out, '52nd Street' wasn't technically the first CD; the technology was originally tested on a pressing of Richard Strauss's 'Eine Alpensinfonie,' and the first batch of discs to be manufactured was a run of ABBA's 'The Visitors,' but it didn't arrive in stores until later.
Of course, today, the CD seems rather quaint — a relic of a bygone era when we had to actually purchase physical goods in order to hear music. But at the time, it was space-age stuff, offering what seemed like a pristine alternative to the fuzzy hiss of cassette tapes and the numerous pitfalls of vinyl. And it carried a space-age price tag, too; in fact, the prohibitive costs of CD players — not to mention the discs themselves — kept most consumers from adapting the new technology for several years.
These days, many of us are more likely to listen to music on our portable digital players — and younger consumers may not even own copies of their favorite songs at all, opting instead to stream from YouTube or subscription services like Spotify. But even if it's lost a bit of its commercial clout, the compact disc is still kicking on its 30th birthday. Will you celebrate by giving '52nd Street' a spin?

Polly and Lou Myers
Above: Lou and Polly Myers at their home in Petersburg, illinois. Active philanthropists, the couple has created a scholarship at UIS.
Much-Needed Help From a UIS/SSU Alumna
It took Polly nineteen years to finish her undergraduate degree.
She decided to take her first college class when her oldest daughter was twelve. She had married at a young age, and had four children, and to help provide for her family, she waited tables, dumped corn for a seed company, and cleaned houses. She soon realized she needed to improve her earning ability, and she enrolled at Illinois State University in Normal.
So Many Changes in Polly's Life
When she graduated from UIS nineteen years later with a degree in Child, Family and Community, a lot had happened in her life:
- Her first husband left her, leaving four children in her care.
- She married again, this time to a widower with three children of his own.
- Her second husband died 9-1/2 years later, leaving her with seven children in the family (though most had grown up by then).
- Against all her expectations, she married a third time in 1980, this time to Brigadier General (ILARNG) Louis Myers, Jr. (Ret).
Instantly a Father of Seven
Having never been married and without children of his own, Lou instantly became a father of seven.
With his career success in the National Guard, he made it possible for Polly to forego a paying job and fill her life with volunteer service to the community, including almost daily research into family genealogies for prospective members of Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and other lineage organizations
"This is a lovely man," she says of Lou. "I'm so blessed to have him."
Giving Both Time and Money to Many Causes
The couple give generously both in time and money. Much of their philanthropy and outreach involves education, especially their work with young people. Over their 32 years of marriage, Lou and Polly have helped dozens of men and women.
A few examples:
- They regularly drove one young woman to Lincoln Land to take GED classes.
- They helped another young woman with two children through her Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) courses; having earned all A's the young woman has only to take her certification test.
- A few years ago, they served as house parents for six months at the Tamassee DAR School in South Carolina, and still keep in touch with many of the boys.
Why Scholarships?
Most of the organizations Lou and Polly belong to have scholarships associated with them, and now they have decided to give a scholarship to UIS.
As a student going to UIS, Polly remembers receiving a $368 scholarship. She says that extra money "really helped me get where I was going."

Houston 1977
I was at this show. Originally scheduled for February 28, 1977, the show was postponed and re-scheduled for May 21st. Myself, along with 3 of my long-time friends had 2 seats on the 4th row and 2 on the 6th row. We were in absolute dis-belief at what we heard and saw. Starting with "The Song Remains The Same" and ending with the last encore, "Trampled Underfoot", it was truely an amazing night, watching our musical heroes perform an amazing set. As the band was walking onto the stage, we saw the shadow of John Bonham settle in at his drum kit and do a double hit on his base drum. It was like thunder. My chest vibrated from the sound waves and I almost messed myself. We knew we were in for it.
Without realizing the extreme volume being pounded into my inner ears, we sat and listened to song after song. Over 3 and half hours later, the lights came on and I rose up to exit The Summit, but had to hold on to the seats to walk. My ears were so clogged from the air pressure inside the arena, I literally could not balance myself well enough to walk on my own until we were outside. A couple of month's ago, one of the friends who was with me that night called and told me he had found a bootleg of the concert. He sent me a copy and I listened for hours as my mind went back to a time 30 years ago. I could remember Robert dropping the microphone, Jimmy falling down, flat on his back, as he jumped into the first chords of "Rock and Roll" (first encore) without missing a single note. I thought to myself, "how lucky I am to be able to re-live this evening from the past", not then knowing of the possibility my three friends and I might have an opportunity to see them again. I don't know if any of the band members will ever see this, but if they do, here is what I would want Robert, Jimmy, John and Bonzo (somewhere) to know: "Life has brought endless change.
I am not the 16 year kid who witnessed this concert some 30 years ago. Nor are any of you the same. I am much more conservative now than I ever thought I would become. But I will never forget the songs, the memories, the excitement, the anticipation and the endless joy your music brought to my life. Each album was different from any previous one, but a seemingly natural progression of where the music should go. Your music has touched the lives of millions, including myself.
I picked up a copy of "Mothership" when it came out and rushed home to watch the DVD. It too, was amazing. So many kids today don't know where their music comes from. They say they have heard of Led Zepplin, but then ask me to name some of your songs. I just shake my head and tell them they wouldn't understand. I did convince one young guy to buy a copy of LZ II. He plays the guitar some. After hearing, he became a true believer. Apparently he hardly ever puts his guitar down. In fact, I understand he played at a recital his guitar instructor put together and played a song that he wrote. He told me about it and said he was inspired to write (or attempt to) after hearing LZ II.
There is a whole new generation out there, starving for musical inspiration and guidance. They are waiting. Your reunion has been long-awaited and much needed. But whether it is for just one show, or many more, I just want to say "thank you".

text: If you have not heard, Apple Co-Founder and CEO Steve Jobs died today. This is significant to me for a couple of reasons. Apple computers are much easier to use and typically do not have the operating system issues to which Windows machines are prone. With software becoming more readily available there may really be competition in the market place for a change. Perhaps more significant is the I-Phone on ATT's network which seems to have fewer issues than those my wife has had on Verizon. The blackberry Storm was appropriately named. All hell broke loose regularly when it locked up, crapped out and had a host of other problems. A Friend with the new Droid fare a little better but still they have issues with the software crapping out. Since both my wife and daughter have the I Phone, continued success of that product is essential. Perhaps the biggest issue for me personally is that Mr Jobs was 56 and I just turned 50. I guess it just goes to show there is one thing that money and success can't guarantee you - longer life.


text: Ok...there has been a lot of talk about this on the News and Radio. So I thought I'd take a servey about it here. Do you think the Pledge of Alengence (sorry,I can't spell it without looking at it) should be said or recited at Sporting Events along with our National Anthem?

12.03.14 MSPmentor | Focus on Security: What Webroot Offers to MSPs
Webroot announced quarterly financials in late November and noted that managed service providers (MSPs) contributed significantly to the company's growth. MSPmentor has seen representatives of this IT security company at many important managed services conferences recently. But just what does Webroot have to offer managed service providers? Here's our deeper dive.
11.24.14 Business Solutions | MSPs, Don't Risk Missing Opportunities: 4 Factors Driving Cloud Security
To all MSPs out there that are accustomed to managing on-premise security solutions, it's time to take note — your business is moving to the cloud, whether you like it or not. According to a Gartner report released last year, by 2016 the use of cloud computing will increase to become the bulk of new IT spend. In fact, Gartner refers to 2016 as a "defining year for the cloud." Infonetics Research backs that claim, stating cloud-based security service revenue will expand at a 10.8 percent compound annual growth rate through 2017, and projects the market to reach $9.2 billion.
11.20.14 The Denver Post | Colorado sees tech job growth, but also a need to prepare future workers
When Dick Williams accepted the job as CEO of the Boulder security firm Webroot Inc. five years ago, he told the board he needed 90 days to decide whether he would commute from his home in San Francisco or move to Colorado. He moved. And a year later, he moved the company to Broomfield after drawing a map to figure out a central location for employees. "The competition for talent is fierce in Silicon Valley. It's an open door, and they're rotating in and out all the time. Here, you can get great people and they stay."
11.17.14 CIO | New ransomware CoinVault allows users to decrypt one file for free
The new threat was discovered by security researchers from Webroot and is similar in functionality to more prevalent ransomware programs like CryptoWall. It uses strong 256-bit AES encryption with keys stored on a remote server, it kills the Windows Volume Shadow Copy Service so that users can't use it to recover their files and only supports Bitcoin as a payment method.
11.17.14 ChannelPro Network | Webroot Continues to Amp Up Partnerships
Internet threat detection firm Webroot has announced that its Webroot BrightCloud IP Reputation Service will be offered as part of the HP Enterprise Security Products portfolio. The aim is to enhance visibility in order to combat the threats introduced to customer networks by corporate and employee BYOD devices.
11.08.14 TechRadar | Three important security features arriving with Windows 10
Derek Tumulak, the vice president of product management at Vormetric, notes that the operating system is making a reach beyond OS functions, logins/authentication, and user access control into a fuller security infrastructure platform that addresses the reason security threats arise in large companies.
11.07.14 eWeek | Webroot, ThreatMetrix Partner on Business Security
Fraud prevention and security solutions specialist ThreatMetrix announced the update to its Fall 2014 product, which includes mobile application security and scans all installed mobile applications to verify their reputation though the company's Global Trust Intelligence Network. Thanks to a partnership with threat detection specialist Webroot, this will now be done through integration with the company's BrightCloud Mobile App Reputation Service to detect the presence of malicious or unwanted apps in order to reduce the risk of personal information theft.
10.27.14 Cyber Defense Magazine | The Two Sides of BYOD
On Webroot's behalf, Harris Poll conducted two online surveys—one surveyed IT professionals in companies with 500+ employees in March-April 2014.1 The second surveyed adults with mobile devices employed full or part-time in December 2013.
10.23.14 TechRepublic | Webroot SecureAnywhere Premier for Android Security
Interest in Android security is at an all-time high with the release of Android L and other recent moves to make Android a more secure mobile enterprise operating system. One Android security player you shouldn't lose sight of is Webroot. I've been testing out their cloud-based SecureAnywhere Premier product for about a month now on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 recently updated to Android 4.4.2 KitKat.
10.21.14 eWeek | Webroot, HP Partner on Mobile Security Platform
Cloud-based, real-time Internet threat detection specialist Webroot announced that its BrightCloud IP Reputation Service will be offered as part of the HP Enterprise Security Products portfolio to enhance visibility into threats introduced to customer networks by corporate and employee-owned mobile devices. The BrightCloud IP Reputation Service is a real-time threat intelligence service that helps enterprise organizations identify malicious IPs in their network traffic.
10.16.14 PC Mag | Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security Plus (2015)
Do you picture a security suite as a bloated collection of security components, with the potential to bog down your system's performance? If so, you may have trouble recognizing Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security Plus (2015) ($59.99 per year for three licenses; $69.99 for five) as belonging to this category of security software. But belong it does. It's the tiniest suite around, partly because of the way it works and partly because it omits some of the usual suite components.
10.02.14 Fox | 5 Tablet Security Threats: Are Yours Protected?
What to do: Although iPads aren't 100 percent safe from mobile malware, Android tablets are particularly at risk. Google Play isn't as strict as the Apple App Store about third-party apps, opening the gates to a flood of potential security threats. A study by Internet security company Webroot revealed that more than 40 percent of Android apps are malicious, suspicious or unwanted.
9.18.14 Third Certainty | Q&A: Why small businesses need threat intelligence
Threat Intelligence has been a hot topic at RSA, Black Hat and other conferences of late. ThirdCertainty asked Patrick Kennedy, Webroot's vice president of enterprise marketing, to supply some context.
9.15.14 Business Solutions | Managed Services, Backup and Recovery, and Networking News from August 2014
Webroot has introduced its Channel Edge Reseller Program. This program enables Webroot to provide VARs, distributors, services providers, and systems integrators with a set of sales and marketing tools. In addition, partners committed to working with Webroot and meeting a minimum quarterly revenue attainment are enrolled as Elite Resellers and receive added benefits such as qualified sales leads, speaking engagements and joint seminars, market expansion programs, sales incentives, and a dedicated channel account manager.
9.15.14 Scientific American | Crime Ring Revelation Reveals Cybersecurity Conflict of Interest
A small cybersecurity firm claimed this summer to have uncovered a scam by Russian Internet thieves to amass a mountain of stolen information from 420,000 Web and FTP sites. The hacker network, dubbed "CyberVor," possessed 1.2 billion unique credentials—a user name and matching password—belonging to 500 million e-mail addresses, asserted Hold Security, LLC. Hold Security's actions exposed key flaws in the way certain cybersecurity companies operate but were not emblematic of the industry as a whole, some cybersecurity executives argue.
9.04.14 Business 2 Community | When Watson Hooked Up with Siri, BYOD Earned Its Corporate Respectability
Computerworld staffer Jaikumar Vijayan recently took a look at two surveys that show that corporate employees and IT managers are taking what he calls a surprisingly lax approach to the security issues inherent in the business use of personally owned smartphones and other mobile devices. Two surveys commissioned by Webroot and conducted by Harris Interactive found a significant disconnect between IT and BYOD users.
8.26.14 USA Today │ Bring Your Own Dilemmas: Dealing with BYOD and security
Once upon a time, your computer was a box under your desk, your phone was connected by a wire to the wall, and everyone went home at 5 p.m. and left work behind them. "It's almost quaint to think of now," said Michael Malloy, a vice president at Webroot, a Colorado-based Internet security company.
8.21.14 The VAR Guy │ Webroot Brings BrightCloud IP to LogRhythm
Internet threat detection company Webroot has integrated its services with security intelligence company LogRhythm to provide customers with more versatile and effective threat protection. According to Webroot, once malware or other harmful traffic is detected, the system will perform other tasks to give administrators visibility into network behavioral changes and malicious IPs, and automate attack remediation.
8.18.14 TheStreet │ 5 Lessons of Companies That Let Employees Bring Smartphones In
Today employees have complete access to the Internet via unsecured smartphones that can be accessed anywhere, anytime. Companies are both embracing the change and taking extreme measures to prevent lost time and data. "If they didn't have that device, then I couldn't communicate with them outside the hours of 9 to 5, and frankly if I couldn't communicate with them outside of that window, then I couldn't get as much done," says Mike Malloy, executive vice president of products and strategy for Internet security company Webroot.
8.07.14 SecurityInfoWatch │ Playing Russian Roulette with Internet security
Although 1.2 billion credentials were stolen, because many people have multiple passwords and usernames it is difficult to calculate just how many users this attack affected. "It's a difficult state of affairs for online account password security and it always has been - Heartbleed demonstrated that. Security experts can never provide fool-proof security for passwords as it just isn't possible. Whether it's through vulnerable code, falling for scams, or trusting others, you just can't guarantee password protection," Webroot's Senior Threat Research Analyst Tyler Moffitt says.
8.06.14 eWeek │ Webroot Rolls out Channel Edge Reseller Program
"We didn't want to create just any other partner program," Darren Niller, senior director of worldwide alliance and channel marketing at Webroot, told eWEEK. "We wanted it to be unique by delivering an innovative set of sales and marketing tools designed to help partners rapidly grow their business with Webroot support at every stage of the sales cycle, from customer education and prospecting, to successful deal closure."
7.30.14 CRN │ Webroot Aims To Attract VARs to SaaS Endpoint Security
Webroot made a complete transition to a channel sales model over the last year, establishing a global base of more than 1,200 resellers to grow its presence in the small and midsize market, said David Bennett, vice president of worldwide consumer and SMB sales. The newly unveiled channel program adds support tools and features to help resellers getting established with the vendor to deliver software trails, marketing materials and create security services around the cloud-based platform, Bennett said.
7.27.14 CIO Insight │ Missing in Action: BYOD Security
Incredibly, studies show that as many as 80 percent of companies lack this critical component. This includes informing employees about ways people inadvertently share or expose important data and information. Finally, there's a dire need for clear policies and, as the Webroot report suggests, a BYOD Bill of Rights that acknowledges employee concerns and allows them to provide input. A 2013 Acronis survey with Ponemon Institute found that 60 percent of firms lack a personal device policy.
7.26.14 PC Magazine │ Unwanted Apps Pretend to be Entertainment, Gaming Apps
About 12 percent of the more than 548,000 Android apps analyzed by Webroot in June were considered "unwanted." Webroot's monthly analysis makes it amply clear that potentially unwanted apps lurk everywhere. As always, check what permissions your apps are asking for before installing, and check the developer to make sure the title is legitimate. Download apps only from Google Play, and keep an eye out for what permissions the app will request.
7.25.14 SearchITChannel │ Webroot redesigns reseller program; ASCII Group expands forum
In this channel news roundup, Webroot doubles-down on its channel commitment, launching a redesigned partner program for resellers. Cloud-based, real-time Internet threat detection company Webroot launched its redesigned Webroot Channel Edge Reseller Program this week. The company said the program advances its commitment to the channel, which has driven year-over-year growth in the small and medium-size business market segment.
7.24.14 Fortune │ Showdown at the B.Y.O.D. corral
Though BYOD programs were instituted to ease tensions between employees and their companies, it turns out there's still plenty to go around, particularly when it comes to security and privacy. Almost half of American workers said they would stop using their personal devices for business if their employer required them to install a specified security app, according to a July report from Harris Interactive, a market research firm, and Webroot, a cyber security company.
7.14.14 ITBusinessEdge │ Employers, Employees Still Not on Same Page About BYOD
If you read this blog or IT Business Edge regularly (and thank you for doing so!), I assume that you care about network security, emerging technologies, and the intersection between the two issues. But it seems like you are in the minority, at least within the workplace. Oh, we all love our technologies and gadgets and whatever will make our work life more efficient and productive. Security, though, remains elusive. This is especially true in Bring Your Own Device (BYOD).
7.11.14 Computerworld │ There's still a security disconnect on BYOD
Corporate employees -- and to a lesser extent IT managers -- are taking a surprisingly lax approach towards security issues raised by the business use of personally owned smartphones and other mobiles devices, according to two surveys. Enterprise users were found to be deeply suspicious of any IT effort to implement security controls on their devices. In fact, many said they would choose not to bring personal devices to the workplace if employers planned to install security software on them.
06.26.14 Bank Info Security │ Improving Cyberthreat Communication
A common framework for communicating threats and alerts among security vendors' systems would bolster efforts to protect consumers' information, says David Duncan of Webroot. "Communicating threats and alerts across disparate devices that are used in the security infrastructure to help build a better, consistent understanding of these new [threats] we're encountering that are behavioral based ... is very critical," he says.
06.24.14 MSP Mentor │ Webroot's BrightCloud Security Services: Here's What MSPs Need to Know
Webroot, a cloud security software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider, has unveiled new enterprise-class threat intelligence services. The new BrightCloud Security Services for Enterprise are designed to provide threat intelligence through integration with popular network security and management platforms, according to the company.
06.23.14 IT World │ Endpoint security demands organizational changes
Wow, it's no wonder why some have declared that endpoint security software is "dead." Negative opinions like these have put leading security firms like Kaspersky, McAfee, Sophos, Symantec, Trend Micro, and Webroot on the defensive and opened the door for endpoint antimalware upstarts like Bromium, Cisco/Sourcefire, Cylance, Crowdstrike, IBM, Invincea, Malwarebytes, and Triumfant.
06.05.14 PC Magazine │ A Year of Snowden Revelations: What Has Changed?
The pace of revelations has slowed over the past couple months, but no one thinks we are done. "While the initial shock has diminished, the fundamental trust between businesses and their customers has certainly been challenged by the allegations of cooperation between government agencies and some very well-known technology companies," said Dick Williams, CEO of Webroot.
06.04.14 Techday │ Webroot: Evolutions in endpoint security
The threat landscape has been rapidly evolving over the past few years, largely driven by an expansive and mature cybercrime-as-a-service (CaaS) ecosystem. Services range from rapid trojan development, access to infected PCs and C&C hosting, all the way to the liquidation of stolen information.
06.02.14 MSPMentor │ Webroot Announces New ConnectWise, LabTech Software Integrations
Webroot, an Internet threat protection provider, today announced new integrations with ConnectWise's professional services automation (PSA) software and LabTech Software's remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform. Webroot's BrightCloud security intelligence platform and SecureAnywhere products provide real-time Internet threat detection for businesses, consumers and enterprises.
05.21.14 USA Today │ Experts: Consumers have to protect themselves online
Every day brings another story about a sophisticated computer hacking operation. Wednesday it was eBay announcing a database of user passwords had been breached.

Ebay disclosed overnight that it has suffered an attack earlier in the year that compromised customer's names, encrypted password, email address, physical address, phone number, and date of birth. "Although Ebay is still assessing the damage, the concern is the time between the breach and its public disclosure, possibly leaving users vulnerable for weeks," said Mike Malloy.

05.19.14 PC Magazine │ Mobile Malware Not The Only Threat; Unwanted Apps Bad, Too
When it comes to mobile threats, most people can tell when an app is doing something bad. But a whole class of potentially unwanted applications—PUAs—are a little harder to figure out. They aren't malware, but they aren't harmless, either. Webroot researchers recently provided Security Watch with some insights on the types of apps available on Google Play.
05.06.14 Mobile Enterprise │ Attack of the Apps
Over the course of 10 years, Grayson Milbourne has watched the evolution of cyber threats move from the PC environment to the hands of near billions of mobile users. The director of security intelligence for Webroot says, "This is largely driven by user behavior—we are using our mobile devices much more than our traditional desktop environments. That's definitely noticed by the cybercrime community and it follows the user activity."

Android's distribution network also is more complex. "Google has done a lot to address the distribution of updates by removing device manufacturers' and carriers' play into the distribution of updates," said Grayson Milbourne.

Developers are becoming more aware of secure app development practices and risky app behaviors to avoid. That said, some app developers will continue to seek new ways to generate revenue from building apps that may intrude on privacy.
01.03.14 PC Magazine│ 2014 Tech Predictions
Dick Williams, President and CEO of Webroot – In 2014 all of these smart devices, limitless social networks, and personal acquiescence will be used to an extra-ordinary extent to mine behaviors and identity with the aim of refining cyberattacks, cybercrime and cyber-espionage. As a result there will be some very high-profile compromises of individual, corporate and government data that will make Edward Snowden and the NSA seem benign in comparison. That will produce a privacy backlash that will spawn a host of new security services.

I did pick up LUSH-101.
Pete, thanks for the link. I spent a bit of time browsing soniccouture.com and listening to a lot of their sample clips. Almost bought some... we'll see if I can hold out.I did end up ordering Toraverb this weekend, and almost ordered Lush-101.
It's for making the sound warmer and less digital sounding - but you can also crank it up for a really hot signal. Yeah, that's it.
I'm dying to know: What does "OVEN" mean on the display? Is this a truly flexible piece of equipment (also makes cupcakes)? Or is that tech-speak for something I don't understand?
what sort of deal did you get on it? the list price is nearly equal to everything I have....
Sorry to strike a future blow to your bank account man, but apparently they've discovered that triple clocking takes this box all the way to 100% perfection! http://www.gearslutz.com/board/product-alerts-older-than-2-months/660708-antelope-eclipse-384-converter-2.html

My Favorite Bold Coffee #6 – Café Estima Blend®
I admit that I tend to judge a book by its cover. And by that I mean in the coffee world, I sometimes judge a coffee by its bag. (Come on, we all do it sometimes!) And when I noticed the bright and colorful design of the Café Estima Blend® a few years back, I had to buy it right off the shelf like I would do at my local bookstore.
That was in January 2007. The coffee was smooth and velvety back then, and it still leaves that same memorable dark-roast taste with a lasting sweet finish on my tongue today.
Yet something is different this year. Café Estima Blend® is now packaged in an orange-colored bag. It's part of a new promotion of three Starbucks™ Shared Planet™ coffees that highlight our partnerships with other organizations. Café Estima Blend® is Fair Trade Certified™ and the new, colorful packaging tells how we work with Fair Trade groups to help improve the livelihoods of coffee farmers.
Estima means "respect" in Spanish and Café Estima Blend® truly lives up to its name. Who says you can't judge a book by its cover? I did and I know I got it right this time.

Estima is a perfect coffee. The more I taste it the more I like it. And it's Fair Trade, can you ask for more?

Welcome to the jungle!
Loading Map
Travelling through the clouds, we were suddenly made aware of the road conditions that faced us for the next 6 hours. We were weaving our way down narrow, twisty "roads", with a sheer drop on our right hand side, accompanied by landslides and pot holes. One scary incident in particular forced 'Boo Boo', our brave bus driver, to practically ramp over a large landslide. Standing a safe distance away, we all cheered as he safley touched down!
Thankfully, we all arrived safley and in one piece at our first lodge, San Pedro, where we walked along the dirt road to see the Peruvian national bird, Cock of the Rock, performing its mating ritual. From an observatory platform, the red body of the dancing bird dramatically stood out against the green forest, leaving us satisfied with our first example of forest wildlife. We were even more thrilled to spot large wooly monkeys in the distance on our way back to the lodge!
The lodges we stayed at during the whole of our trip were all based on the same design. The rooms gave a distinct feeling of sleeping under the starst and amongst the insects, with just nets seperating us from the outside at some points. The bathrooms looked and smelt like farmyard barns, the showers using brown water from the river, and the lack of electricity meant that we had to carry a torch around with us at all times - in fear of stepping on snakes and poisonous insects!
That night - after what would become my nightly insect inpection of our room! - we settled down to sleep under our mosquito nets, Catrin squirming at each chirp of the cicadas!
The next morning, we walked again through the cloudforest, spotting a multitude of different birds (our favourite being the Oropendola), colourful butterflies and varying insects. Our guide ('Yo Yo') introduced us to the medicinal purpose of plants, by giving us the bud of a camomile flower to chew, which had the effect of numbing our mouths - used by the natives before any dental procediure.
Later that afternoon, we rafted down the river to our next lodge, Erika. Although the rapids were mild, it was enjoyable to be able to see the cloud forest behind us from a new perspective, and take a few minutes to swim in the river. Arriving at Erika (now at the beginning of the rainforest), we had lunch before our next activity - the canopy zip down. This involved hiking to the first of four platforms, situated high in the forest canopy. Once there, we were strapped into our harnesses, and hooked onto the high wire, stretching out across the jungle to the next platform. Zipping across from one platform to the other was exhilirating, however the slightest lapse in concentration would result in smashing into a tree - which I nearly found out the hard way! Each zip line gradually got steeper and faster, until we arrived at the final platform, where we absailed to the ground. The ziplining was fantastic, and it also gave us the opportunity to see unique insects that lived high in the forests�canopy - including a posonous insect that resembled a crocodile!
Waking up before the Sun, we took a short motorboat ride to a parrot clay lick to watch the birds congregate to obtain minerals needed for their diet. Although far away, we also managed to spot a Toucan amongst the trees through our ridiculously oversized binoculars. Later that morning we travelled deeper into the jungle on the motorboat, to the last village before Manu�s reserved zone, where we were greeted by the "hola!" of a friendly parrot. The reserved zone of the Manu National Park is a protected area of the Amazon jungle where it is forbifdden to cut trees, fish or even talk loudly, in order to preserve the natural environment of the plants and animals. Five minutes away from Boca Manu at our lodge, this became apparent, as two large red and blue macaus flew overhead squawking, and big, colourful spiders dominated the bushes surrounding our campsite.
That night, we went for a walk through the pitch black forest armed with our flashlights. We saw many insects, including; tarrantulas, enormous stick insects, a dangerous looking scorpion spider, crickets, and a poisonous frog amongst others. Since Catrin has plenty of experience in nervously spotting spiders around the house, she was particularly good at spider safari in the jungle!
Our wake up call the following morning was unique to say the least. At first, it sounded like a high wind was sweeping through the camp, but later that day we were informed that the howl was infact coming from howler monkeys that inhabited the nearby forest. After brerakfast, we signed in at a ranger station and entered the reserve zone. The Americans on our trip were eagerly anticipating the results of the election, so we listened to a crackly Peruvian newscast on the radio, announcing that Obama had won (much to our relief!).
After another six hour boat ride down river, we arrived at our furthest destination into the Amazon jungle, Sajino Safari Campsite. After dinner, we went for a long walk through the forest to Salvador Lake. 'Yo Yo' caried a large stick with him, in order to remove spiderwebs from our path (worryingly, he didn�t carry one for our night walk, presumibly what we didn�t see didn�t hurt us!). On the lake, we saw a caimen that measured about three meters and spotted the rare giant otters in the distance. We returned at night to the lake to try and spot more caiman, by shining flashlights accross the lake, which once in a while revelaed red eyes shining back at us! Using the same technique whilst travelling back to camp through the forest, we spotted a giant guinea pig-like animal that we think might be called a Capybara!
The next day, waking early to the now familiar sound of the howler monkeys, we returned to the lake in order to see the otters again, but closer this time, from a catamaran. It was easy to spot the otters due to the noisy young and we observed them for over an hour as they caught fish and played in the water. Afterwards, we walked to the watch tower high above an oxbow lake, however our visit was shortlived due to the fact that a swarm of dangerous wasps had taken residence in its roof!
After lunch, we crossed the river and walked to another lodge to meet the native people that ran the place. They are renowned for their knowledge of the jungle, and as a result, can charge extortionate prices to stay at their lodge during times of extreme weather. They taught us how they hunted with a bow and arrow and sold handicrafts to tourists. On the way, we saw three types of monkey, the cappuchin, spider and woolly. We were warned that the woolly monkey was very territorial and that they may urinate on us from the treetops if we got too close! The monkeys were extremely close, and playing right above our heads - although thankfully we didn't get wet!
The following day, we left Sajino Safari Campsite and returned to Boca Manu village, our first stop on our three day return trip back to Cusco. Whilst there, the tourist played an impromptu game of barefoot football againast the locals. Having lost 2-0, we returned to the boat with our heads hanging low, however our spirits were raised by the peculiarness of the next lodge...
Charging towards us from the forest upon our arrival came the resident tapir, Poncho! Not strictlz a pet, the juvanille tapir (although still very big) would often return to the lodge for easy food. Extremely friendley, the tapir would allow us to stroke it and it even swam with us later that afternoon! Another suprise was waiting for us in the dining room that night. In the roof's rafter were two huge tarantulas, which frightfully had disappeared by dinnertime.
On our penultimate day, we travelled back to Erika lodge, where we befriended the hyperactive child of the lodge owner, Washington! Understanding no English and being so close to nature, he would communicate with tourists by immitating jungle animals. Little ''Washi'' provided us with that afternoon's entertainment, running around like a monkey and jumping all over the furniture!
Begrudgingly getting back on the bus on our last day, we began the long journey back to Cusco. After a breakdown, and a quick stop to photograph a vine snake, we finally returned to Cusco after a 14 hour trip. Not wanting to say farwell to our new friemds, we arranged a night out the following day. We followed our friends to an Isreali restaurant, followed by salsa dancing at a local bar!

UTEP Accepts At-Large Bid To WNIT; Will Play Host To Sun Belt Conference Champ Arkansas State Friday
March 17, 2014
Like UTEP Women's Basketball On Facebook
EL PASO, TEXAS – The UTEP women's basketball team will make its first appearance in the WNIT when it plays host to Sun Belt Conference regular-season champion Arkansas State (22-11) at the Don Haskins Center Friday. Ticket information and the time of the contest will be released Tuesday.
The victor will advance to play Saint Mary's California or CSU Bakersfield. The Miners (24-7) received an at-large bid to the event, joining five other Conference USA squads. C-USA led all leagues with Charlotte, East Carolina, Old Dominion, Southern Miss and Tulane
It marks the second time in the past three seasons and fourth occasion overall that UTEP will play postseason basketball (2008 & 2012 NCAA Tournament).
UTEP will enter the event at 24-7 on the year, with the 24 victories ranking third on the school's single-season ranking. It marked the third consecutive 20+ win campaign, a program first. The Miners advanced to the C-USA Tournament semifinals for a third straight season while setting several school records across the board.
Included among them are field-goal attempts (2,003), free-throws made (564), attempted (791), home wins (17), points (2,417), scoring offense (78.1) and three-points attempted (593).
The Orange and Blue have posted 19 double-digit victories, which is one shy of the school standard (20, 2011-12). They are also closing in on the single-season records for field goals (831, record of 861, 2007-08) and three-pointers made (191, record of 201, 1988-89).
UTEP's special senior class of Kayla Thornton, Kristine Vitola and Kelli Willingham will lead the charge for the Miners at the WNIT. The trio, which already owns the school standard for best record by a class (91-36), will become the first class to compete in multiple postseason tournaments during their careers.
Now in its 17th year, the Postseason WNIT is the second longest current running postseason event for women's college basketball, behind the NCAA Tournament. In addition, it is the only men's or women's postseason tournament – other than the NCAA – to offer an automatic berth to each of the 32 established conferences.
All games during the tournament are hosted by participating schools with first-round games opening March 19-21, followed by round two (March 22-25), round three (March 26-28), round four (March 29-31), semifinals (April 2-3), and championship (April 5 at 3 p.m. ET). The championship game will be nationally televised live in HD on CBS Sports Network with Thad Anderson (play-by-play) and Ceal Barry (analyst) calling the action.

Hi all,
I can still here the bees humming, but I see cappings and grass around in the entrance of the hive. The hive is one deep tall. Any thoughts on what I can do? Wait for warm day? Trap out with peanut butter? I hear mice leave the hive at night, is that true?

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Gear (General) › Advice on MLD Grace Solo Tieouts
Mar 29, 2008 at 4:19 pm #1228058
I got a Solo a few days ago, and it weighed 6 oz, rather than the 4.7 oz. I expected. The reason was that there are 12 tieouts, rather than the 8 shown in the photo, or described on the site.
What is your experience? Are the extra tieouts (total of 5 per side) necessary/worth it?Mar 29, 2008 at 6:29 pm #1426139
RogerBPL Member
@fastwalkerLocale: SW
Sounds like you own MLD's Grace Solo in Spectralite .60 weight: 5.9oz
In order to bring the weight down you'd have to order a CUSTOM (non returnable) version.
To go from the stock 5.9 oz to 4.9oz and still have a fairly large Solo tarp.
• If you would like to shave another .5 oz while retaining all the extra strength of the bonding features, note in the order comment field you would like it built as a 6' X 4.5' X 8' ! NOTE: This would be a custom order and non returnable.
• We also standardly include grommets on the ridge line tieout's webbing. You may request these be deleted to save an additional .15oz.
• Linelocs are included as standard and weight about .65oz total. You can easily cut them off with wire snips leaving the standard webbing loops.
• Fewer side perimeter tieouts. 5 per side is standard. You can custom order three per side to save .2oz
Spec's copied from MLD's Updated WebsiteMar 29, 2008 at 6:59 pm #1426143
This is a screenshot of your product specifications page which I took today, before I began this thread. I ordered a 4.4oz tarp, with an added 9" length and a .3oz weight for a total of 4.7oz, as stated in the original message in this thread.
Why did someone change the specifications before replying?
But that is not the issue I raised. I got a tarp with 12 (not the specified 8) tieouts. Are more tieouts preferable to fewer? If so, are they worth the weight? That's all.
If you like, I can upload the screenshot showing a total of 8 tieouts specified.Mar 29, 2008 at 8:23 pm #1426153

James is correct with his information from the time he ordered his tarp.
We updated the info on that tarp today.
We thanks James for contacting us about the difference and now the website info on that product is updated too. Timely customer feedback (good or bad) keeps us moving forward and improving our gear and website. I believe the questions with James' order has now been completely fixed to his satisfaction.
When we started offering the LineLocs recently with some of the tarps, we offered to retrofit or include them (for free) on any pending order. Almost everyone asked they be include so we started including them on all orders and sending out two full lengths of line in two sizes, one for the LineLocks and the smaller standard line for the customer to choose from. (Free Double Line!)
On the SpectraLite Solo tarps almost all customers were also asking for 5 perimeter side ties outs per side instead of the listed three. So we started including the extra tieouts free too. We also were able to make the rear of that tarp a few inches wider. There was some lag in getting the specs all updated on the site.
Basically, we drifted to making the stock item the way 95% of customers were asking.
James was one of a few customers that got a tarp with all the free upgrades they were not expecting and before the site was updated. The down side was that those couple of tarps did weigh more than the specs listed when ordered. The majority of that extra weight can be eliminated with a wire snip in about one minute by cutting off the LineLocs to leave a full strength standard and unmarred webbing loop as expected.
And of course, we would be more than happy to exchange ( or refund) those few tarps for the exact specs from when it was ordered.
Because we build every item in house ourselves, we can adopt new materials quickly but occasionally there is a lag in updating the site depending on the degree of the change. The big upside is customers always get the very best product improvement we can offer as soon as we can offer it.Mar 29, 2008 at 8:40 pm #1426154
Thanks, Ron.
My original question, and please forgive my inexperience:
Is it preferable to have 12 tieouts with the attendant weight, or eight? I suppose I should expand my question. I plan to carry the tarp from the Mexican border to at least Crater Lake on the PCT. I do not expect blowing rainstorms, though I could always be surprised.Mar 29, 2008 at 8:47 pm #1426155

@maynard76Locale: New England
I think only you can answer that question at the end of the day.
More tie outs mean more pitching options. If you find a certain pitch that you stick to most of the time you will know how many tie outs you need. More tie outs also means more wind stability because you can stick more stakes in the ground. Its really just a mixture of personal choice and how you intend to pitch/use it.Mar 29, 2008 at 8:56 pm #1426156
Jason BrinkmanBPL Member
@jbrinkmanboiLocale: Idaho
I am sure Ron will get back to you, but until he does, one could infer that since 95% of customers are asking for the 5 tieouts per side (12 total), that they find them preferable and worth the weight penalty. I suspect it has to do with getting a taught wind-shedding pitch without overstressing the material. I would leave them on there for a week or two, and simply not tie them down. If after that you don't see the need, then cut them off with the tiny little scissors that you broke out of your swiss army knife!Mar 29, 2008 at 9:07 pm #1426158

@mountainlaureldesignsLocale: USA
Originial Question: 3 tie outs per side Vs 5 per side.
Many folks like having the option to use additional (5) side perimeter tie outs in case of very high wind or sometimes for pitching the tarp "interestingly".
In general, I think that the corners and ridgeline will, and should for shape and tension dynamics , always take more force than the center perimeter or intermediate perimeter side tie outs.
If you follow that logic, AND you are going to carry more than 8 stakes for a Solo tarp then it may be more helpful to double stakes at a corner or ridge line before adding a fourth or fifth stake to a side.
I would add a center side perimeter stake, the third on a side, any time above about 10mph wind.
More commonly in high wind, the issue is a stake pull out but very rarely (I've only heard of one case) of a whole tie outs ripping off in a high wind. One reason to only use one stake/line to one tie outs. If one stake (or tieouts) fails it does not effect others as much.
Of course, for absolute strength in really high wind, more is better and that may mean carrying more stakes and doubling them in spots or carrying bigger stakes for corners and ridge lines or the use of heavy found objects for some stake points.
The extra tie outs can sometimes help reduce flap or hum in high wind. This may be the biggest plus of using all five….
What do I do? I usually carry only 6 or 8 stakes for a Solo tarp and find stake out objects or a more protected site if I expect high wind.
On a Duo size tarp, the five per side is more helpful since the tarp is much larger and the wind force on the side starts going up fast as the tarp size increases.
Side Panel Tieouts:
On lightweight tarps or shelters with side panel tieouts (in the middle area of a panel or side) I advocate using a short bungee loops tied to the guy line to help limit the force on that spot.
I also suggest not over tightening that point when staking; rather stake it out until it gives an initial gentle pull on the spot vs. pulling the tarp/shelter side out very far.
If the the side is pulled out very far to make lots of nice and pretty extra interior room, then that point will get a LOT more force on it compared to a side or even a corner perimeter stake point. (Well reinforced and heavier Silnylon side panel tieouts can be pulled more than a lighter Spinnaker/Cuben )Mar 29, 2008 at 9:34 pm #1426162
These are very useful responses. I had not read the article, but have now. Being new to BPL, I am not yet familiar with all the assets. Quite a site. Thanks, all.
A lot to learn!Mar 30, 2008 at 5:24 am #1426173

I really like the new linelocs… much easier than fighting with knots or moving stakes in the dark if you're just looking to cinch up for small adjustments in the middle of the night. A quick tug on the line can be done without even leaving the comfort of your sleeping bag/quilt.Mar 30, 2008 at 12:29 pm #1426209

Does anyone know if you can purchase linelocks and easily add them to a tarp?Mar 30, 2008 at 12:41 pm #1426211

I've seen those, but they're not quite the same as the linelocks being used on the new tarps. Anyone know if the linelocks that are used on the MLD and other tarps can be purchased and retrofitted?Mar 30, 2008 at 2:26 pm #1426222

The Dolphins obviously addressed some definite needs on offense during the 2011 NFL Draft, bringing in a stud interior offensive lineman (Mike Pouncey), an every-down running back (Daniel Thomas), a deep threat wide receiver (Edmond Gates), and a versatile pass-catching tight end (Charles Clay). What about the rest of the division, though? We know that the Bills had the third overall pick and that the Pats had 600 total selections, but what did those teams (and the Jets) end up doing and will it lead to increased toughness in the AFC East in 2011?
