About 3-1/2 dozen cookies
These soft chocolate cookies, frosted with more chocolate and topped with a pinch of coconut, used to be quite popular, but I haven't seen them in a while. The ones I remember were rather too sweet and not very chocolatey, but I have fixed both of those problems. Because these are on the less-sweet side, I think they'd be more favored by adults; I also don't know of that many kids who like coconut. The cookies do not keep well at room temperature, but they do freeze beautifully.
It is important not to overbake these. Bake them one sheet at a time, in the center of the oven, and just until a toothpick inserted in the center emerges with a few moist crumbs clinging to it. As always, cool the cookies completely before frosting them. Nonstick cooling racks and a broad-bladed nonstick metal spatula are a big help here, but if you don't have them, spray your spatula and cooling racks lightly with nonstick cooking spray. If necessary, scrape off the end of the spatula blade with the back of a knife after removing every couple of cookies from the baking sheet.
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg, graded "large"
3 squares (3 ounces) unsweetened chocolate,
melted and cooled slightly
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour,
stirred with a fork to aerate
before measuring, divided
1/4 tsp. baking soda
(if lumpy, sift before measuring)
1/4 tsp. baking powder
(if lumpy, sift before measuring)
Few grains salt
2/3 cup sour cream
2 tsp. water
2/3 cup sweetened, flaked coconut
1-1/2 squares (1-1/2 ounces) unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped
1-1/2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into bits
1-1/2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
About 2 Tbsp. plus 1/2 tsp. hot water
About 1/4 cup sweetened, flaked coconut
For Cookies:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Adjust rack to center of oven. Line baking sheets with aluminum foil, shiny side up.
In medium bowl, with large spoon, cream butter, sugars, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Stir in melted chocolate (which may be just slightly warm) until blended.
Add about half the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and all of the sour cream. Beat in until mixed. Add remaining flour and water and blend in. Dough will be soft.
Use a very well-rounded teaspoon (not a measuring teaspoon) of dough for each cookie. I place only 12 mounds of dough on a 15-1/2 by 10-1/2 inch baking sheet. Keep the mounds of dough as round as possible, but don't fuss over them. Allow remaining dough to stand, loosely covered, at room temperature.
Bake cookies in preheated oven for 7 to 9 minutes, turning sheet once back-to-front about halfway through baking time. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a cookie (use a cookie along an outside row of your baking sheet). When done, the toothpick will emerge with a few moist crumbs still clinging to it. Do not overbake! Remove cookies from oven. Allow to stand on baking sheet for a minute or two before removing to cooling racks (preferably nonstick cooling racks). Cool completely before glazing.
For Frosting:
In small heatproof bowl, combine chopped chocolate and butter bits. Place over simmering water on low heat; stir often just until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and hot water. All at once, add confectioners' sugar; DO NOT STIR. Add 1 Tbsp. plus 1/2 tsp. hot water, and blend well (a small whisk is very helpful here). Gradually add enough of the remaining hot water to achieve a good spreading consistency. Remember, this is a frosting, not a glaze, so don't have it too runny.
Place a generous half-teaspoon (not a measuring teaspoon) on the top of each cookie, spreading it out slightly. You want a rim of unfrosted cookie to show at the edges, so don't cover the tops completely. As the frosting sets fairly quickly, it is best to place it onto each cooled cookie, then spread it, before moving on to the next cookie. After frosting 3 or 4 cookies, place a pinch of coconut for garnish on top of the frosting on each one, pressing the coconut into the frosting very gently. If the frosting becomes too stiff to spread easily while you're working with it, whisk in a few drops of hot water and spreading consistency should be restored.
The frosted and garnished cookies can be served immediately. Otherwise, allow to sit at room temperature till frosting has set. Store airtight at room temperature for up to one day. For longer storage, line a cookie sheet or two with wax paper. Place frosted cookies in a single layer on lined sheet(s). Freeze until frozen through, then place in airtight freezer container (you can stack them once they're frozen) with wax paper between layers and return to freezer. Defrost at room temperature in a single layer, tightly covered.

50 million chemicals and counting
By Janet Raloff, 13:53 PM September 4, 2009
Bring out the helium balloons, confetti and a noisemaker or two. Today, researchers the world over have reason to raise a toast. This afternoon, the Chemical Abstracts Service — an American Chemical Society subsidiary — identified the 50 millionth compound known. Arylmethylidene heterocycle — the molecule that qualified for the momentous spot during the long holiday weekend — is a future candidate for reducing neuropathic pain.
Since 1907, the Columbus, Ohio-based Chem Abstracts has mainta...

This is due to poor connections usually.
Several times I came across a player that had no bars whatsoever, and eventually he turned invisible for me and everyone else. But my friend didn't want to stay in the lobby because of the obvious reason. But, as soon as the laggy player got kicked out, everyone was visible for everyone.
I know, very annoying issue to deal with. My advice is to wait it out or just go back to the lobby and start up a new search.

Came across the first legit hack that i have seen (not due to lag) Wish I had video evidence, but I have been playing this game long enough to know.
Dude had the Spectre and Armor within 30 seconds of the starting match, also seems like a money hack cause he had unlimited ammo

nib Stadium, Perth, Saturday 9.45pm (AEST)
Last meeting: Round 17 2012 - Blues 32 bt Force 9 at Eden Park
Head-to-head: Played 7 Force 1 Blues 5 Drawn 1
In Perth: Played 3 Force 0 Blues 2 Drawn 1
Referee: Rohan Hoffmann (AUS)
TV: Live, FoxSports 2
Ladbrokes: Force $1.80, Blues $2.02
Betfair: Force $1.76, Blues $2.18
Richard Shute writes: John Kirwan will be delighted to have all six of his All Blacks returning for a tough trip to Perth on Saturday night as the Aucklanders look to scrape their way into the play-offs against a side who won't hand the ball over lightly. The Blues have a tough run to the finish line, and will need to rediscover their mojo on the road if they are to have a chance. The home side will be missing Luke Godwin, Luke Morahan and Chris Alcock, but will have Hugh McMeniman and Alby Mathewson available to choke the Blues out of finals contention.
AAP writes: The Force may be seventh on the standings but with three teams ahead having byes, their destiny is in their own hands; two wins out of three likely enough for a maiden finals berth. Victory over the Blues will be crucial to that equation. Michael Foley welcomes back key trio Alby Mathewson, Hugh McMeniman and Marcel Brache for a tough clash with the inconsistent Aucklanders. The Blues have been poor on the road - losing every game away from Eden Park. They have put big flanker Steven Luatua back into their back-row and boast a talent-laden backline the Force will be hard pressed to contain. Young gun Ihaia West has kept his spot at No.10.
FORCE: Jayden Hayward, Dane Haylett-Petty, Marcel Brache, Chris Tuatara-Morrison, Nick Cummins, Sias Ebersohn, Alby Mathewson, Ben McCalman, Matt Hodgson ©, Hugh McMeniman, Adam Coleman, Sam Wykes, Kieran Longbottom, Nathan Charles, Pek Cowan.

Hundreds have lined Hamilton's streets to celebrate the Chiefs second Super Rugby title in two years and to farewell some of their favourite sons.
The city held a special parade in honour of the Chiefs who beat the Brumbies 27-22 at Waikato Stadium on Saturday night.
Dozens of schoolchildren took time off class and others donning the team's colours waved flags and screamed at their heroes to perform the team's haka or at least take their shirts off.
Co-captain Liam Messam told the crowd of about 3,000 that their fans helped them to win back-to-back titles.
"We've got the best fans - you guys are the best," he said to enormous applause.
Check out photos from the parade here:
The team's other co-captain Craig Clarke said the send-off was "humbling".
He said there was a "bit of sadness" among himself, Richard Kahui, Lelia Masaga, Brendon Leonard and Toby Smith who are all about to continue their playing careers at clubs overseas.
"It is a bit, seeing this kind of thing and knowing this is one of the last times I'm with the lads as a group so it's a little bit sad."
"This is what it's all about for us being able to see what it means to the people of our franchise, it's really humbling and it's a pretty special feeling to see the kids who love you and even adults who go crazy when they see you."
Clarke said despite the loss of senior players and a big chunk of experience the team was in good hands and he didn't doubt the team could threaten for three titles in a row.
"Obviously at the top with the coaching panel we have they will get the best out of anybody who wears the Chiefs jersey," he said.
"We have been planning for the moment when a few of us are leaving and a few of the young guys will be stepping up into leadership roles."
The team were awarded outstanding achievers medals by Hamilton mayor Julie Hardaker.
"What the team has achieved is outstanding and to say that Hamiltonians are proud of the Chiefs' success is an understatement! We couldn't have asked for more than a back-to-back title win on our home ground."
"This is a win not only our city and the Waikato region, but the whole country can be proud of."

Blackberry launched their new Z10 phones with a lot of fanfare. But post release, the company had to face a certain level of criticism from some quarters. The chief criticism faced by Blackberry has been regarding their app range. Contrary to the hype generated pre release, Blackberry could not live up to the promise of a plentiful app world. The apps were many in number but they were not the apps that people wanted on their personal devices. However, March onwards, Blackberry World will be providing a native WhatsApp app for Blackberry users.
WhatsApp has a large user base, and a native Blackberry app will go a long way in pleasing the BlackBerry users. BlackBerry's flagship device comes at a premium price. For the success of this device, the application platform needs to see a lot of improvements. BlackBerry had heavily played up its 70,000 app strong BlackBerry World before launch. The app world although rich in a number of apps, was missing many users-favorite apps. WhatsApp's announcements comes a welcome boost to BlackBerry which was facing a struggle explaining why popular apps such as Instagram was not keen on developing a native app particularly for BB 10.
The massive launch of the new BlackBerry 10 came with the announcement of a native WhatsApp app. This was seen as a major win for BlackBerry at that time, since WhatsApp did not seem very keen on bringing a native BB app earlier. In essence, WhatsApp is a functional alternative to BlackBerry's own popular messenger BBM. The BBM is a powerful and much acclaimed messenger service that was always a major requirement for BlackBerry users. The limitation of the BBM messenger, however, is that its functionality is limited only between BlackBerry mobile devices. BBM's latest version in BB 10 utilizes Wi-Fi connectivity and makes use of video alongside audio chat facilities. WhatsApp on the other hand is more of a cross-platform communication application that functions much in the same way as the BBM messenger.
WhatsApp thus has a very vast demographic of app users from various independent platforms. In one report in August last year, WhatsApp network reportedly exchanged 10 billion messages in a single day. This application brings users across the globe together and does away with the distances, borders, and international tariffs by providing users the platform to exchange messages for free. The app is currently available for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BB 7, earlier Symbian phones, and even on some earlier models of Nokia phones.
If BlackBerry hopes to endear itself more to the public, then more such apps are the need of the day. Whatever the device, users will want to continue using the apps that they always have used on their previous device. If BlackBerry hopes to sway users from other platforms than just a plain, robust device won't do. People are now so dependent on apps that they play a major influence on their decisions to switch over to a new device.
BlackBerry is a highly superior device with much attention grabbing features. The usual robustness of the platform has been replicated to this latest version as well. But if BlackBerry really wants practical success then popular apps are the way to go.

Macquarie Bank launches media fund IPO
Page Tools
Macquarie Bank wants to raise almost $1 billion under an initial public offer of securities in its new media investment fund, which will hunt globally for assets to add to its portfolio.
The investment bank is seeking between $927 million and $996 million for Macquarie Media Group (MMG), which already holds 85 Australian commercial radio stations through Macquarie Regional Radioworks Pty Ltd.
MMG executive chairman Tim Hughes said the fund would buy, own and manage media assets around the world, targeting those with stable earnings and cash flows and strong market positions.
"This exciting new fund managed by the Macquarie will provide investors with a combination of exposure to the attractive investment characteristics of the media sector as well as the stable underlying cash flow of Macquarie Regional Radioworks," Mr Hughes said.
The market has been speculating on the potential shape and size of Macquarie's proposed media fund since mid 2004 when it bought its regional radio stations from both RG Capital Radio and DMG Regional Radio.
Observers also wondered what role Macquarie's fund might play in any media sector consolidation that could ensue if the Federal Government eases cross media ownership rules next year.
DJ Carmichael analyst Wendy Chesson said the fund could look at strategic acquisitions with room for growth that would also be attractive should the sector deregulate.
"From what I've heard, what they would want is technology that has room for growth," Ms Chesson said.
Shaw Stockbroking analyst Greg Fraser said MMG could be an interesting addition to the playing field in any media sector shake-up.
"Most of the speculation to date has revolved around whole company takeovers," Mr Fraser said.
"This fund is of a size which would look at small acquisitions, such as the radio businesses they already have, or even potentially a reasonable or blocking stake in one of the larger companies."
Daily stock market newsletter Marcus Today says the fund could have a number of Australian regional TV acquisitions in mind, as well as a cable operator in Taiwan.
"The hot story is that the fund's first acquisition is Southern Cross Broadcasting," Marcus Today said.
Southern Cross owns a commercial radio and television network and the firm that produces television programs Big Brother and Blue Heelers.
Meanwhile, MMG is offering investors 195.25 million stapled securities which will be payable in two instalments of $2.70 to $3.05, depending on bookbuild demand, and $2 per security.
The retail offer will open on October 18 and close on November 3.
MMG, which will be managed by Macquarie Media Management Ltd, is expected to list on the Australian Stock Exchange by November 17.
Macquarie Bank, which buys assets, puts them into funds and charges shareholders fees for managing them, will keep a 20 per cent stake of MMG for the "forseeable future".
The bank's shares were 53 cents higher at $75.79 at midday, more than double the $37 they were on October 4, 2004.
Southern Broadcasting's shares were down 34 cents at $14.77 at noon AEST.

Wolves reject fresh Fletcher approach
Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill has been told to match Wolves' £15 million valuation of Steven Fletcher - or stop unsettling the former Scotland striker.
• O'Neill to make final Fletcher offer
Fletcher, 25, handed in a transfer request last week after Wolves rejected an offer of £12 million from Sunderland and has since been unable to train and play, after tweeting with the hash tag "headsgone".
On Tuesday, Wolves rejected a second bid from the North East club, believed to be £13 million, as manager Staale Solbakken attempts to halt the uncertainty creating disharmony within the club's dressing room.
The Norwegian coach has already admitted Matt Jarvis may be suffering from stress because Wolves have rejected a £9 million offer from West Ham for the England winger.
Solbakken has also claimed it is "stupid" to continue believing everything is "fine" at Molineux with all the turbulence behind the scenes.
Only recently, former captain Karl Henry claimed all the speculation around the futures of Fletcher and Jarvis was "doing his head in" and creating problems in the dressing room.
While Solbakken believes that is a convenient excuse for any player to use at a club which ended its three-year stay in the Premier League, there comes a point when the unsettling really is an issue.
Wolves appear to have reached that point judging by the reaction of chief executive Jez Moxey, who for so long denied official bids from West Ham, Sunderland and Fulham for the club's top players.
Solbakken expects Fletcher and Jarvis to play for him in the Championship if their transfers are not finalised swiftly and Moxey has effectively warned Sunderland to put up, or shut up, ahead of the weekend launch of the new season.
"All parties need to draw a line under this matter, which has now dragged on for over a month," said Moxey. "We need to focus on the season ahead and these disruptions to the squad's preparations are unhelpful.
"We have always said we want to keep our best players. If our valuations of them are not met then they will remain at Wolves. But we cannot allow this speculation about their futures to drag on indefinitely up to the closure of the transfer window."

An Old-Fashioned Girl HTML version
"Now you 've done it, you stupid thing!" cried Fanny, both angry and dismayed, when
Polly delivered the message.
"Why, what else could I do?" asked Polly, much disturbed.
"Let him think the bouquet was for you; then there'd have been no trouble."
"But that would have been doing a lie, which is most as bad as telling one."
"Don't be a goose. You 've got me into a scrape, and you ought to help me out."
"I will if I can; but I won't tell lies for anybody!" cried Polly, getting excited.
"Nobody wants you to just hold, your tongue, and let me manage."
"Then I 'd better not go down," began Polly, when a stern voice from below called, like
Bluebeard, "Are you coming down?"
"Yes, sir," answered a meek voice; and Fanny clutched Polly, whispering, "You must
come; I 'm frightened out of my wits when he speaks like that. Stand by me, Polly; there
's a dear."
"I will," whispered "sister Ann"; and down they went with fluttering hearts.
Mr. Shaw stood on the rug, looking rather grim; the bouquet lay on the table, and beside
it a note, directed to "Frank Moore, Esq.," in a very decided hand, with a fierce-looking
flourish after the "Esq." Pointing to this impressive epistle, Mr. Shaw said, knitting his
black eyebrows as he looked at Fanny, "I 'm going to put a stop to this nonsense at
once; and if I see any more of it, I 'll send you to school in a Canadian convent."
This awful threat quite took Polly's breath away; but Fanny had heard it before, and
having a temper of her own, said, pertly, "I 'm sure I have n't done anything so very
dreadful. I can't help it if the boys send me philopena presents, as they do to the other
"There was nothing about philopenas in the note. But that 's not the question. I forbid
you to have anything to do with this Moore. He 's not a boy, but a fast fellow, and I won't
have him about. You knew this, and yet disobeyed me."
"I hardly ever see him," began Fanny.
"Is that true?" asked Mr. Shaw, turning suddenly to Polly.
"Oh, please, sir, don't ask me. I promised I would n't that is Fanny will tell you," cried
Polly, quite red with distress at the predicament she was in.

Mr. Skin Nudity Hall-of-Famer Monica Bellucci is a very giving woman. In fact, she is one of the most generous women Mr. Skin has ever known. Why do we say that? Because to Monica, peeling down on screen is an act of generosity. And with a body like that, we're skin-clined to agree!
Monica appears nude in her newest film, That Summer, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival this week. On the red carpet, Monica told reporters that she was in a very vulnerable place when she was asked to do the scene a mere month and a half after giving birth to her daughter. But she also said that when she takes a role, she completely trusts the director, and Phillippe Garrell, director of Last Summer, made her feel secure enough to give of her nude self.

text: SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Oct. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Great Southern Bank, a subsidiary of Great Southern Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:GSBC), announced that it has entered into a purchase and assumption agreement, including a loss sharing agreement, with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to purchase substantially all of the assets and to assume substantially all of the deposits and other liabilities of Sun Security Bank, a full-service bank headquartered in Ellington, Mo. All former Sun Security Bank offices with regular Saturday operating hours will open on Saturday, Oct. 8, 2011, as branches of Great Southern Bank. Former Sun Security Bank branches will be closed on Monday, Oct. 10, 2011, in observance of Columbus Day and will reopen on Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2011, with normal banking hours. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111007/CG83024) Current Sun Security Bank depositors will automatically become depositors of Great Southern Bank, and qualifying accounts will continue to be insured by the FDIC. If customers have accounts at both Sun Security Bank and Great Southern Bank, the accounts will be insured separately for at least six months. Customers can continue to access their money by writing checks or using ATM or debit cards. Checks drawn on Sun Security Bank will continue to be processed. Loan customers should continue to make their payments as usual. Customers of both banks should continue to bank as they normally do at their existing branches until Great Southern can fully integrate the deposit and loan records of Sun Security Bank. Great Southern has no plans at this time to change interest rates or terms on existing Sun Security Bank retail CDs; however, customers may withdraw funds without penalty. "We welcome Sun Security Bank customers and employees to Great Southern. Customers can be confident that their deposits are safe and readily accessible. It's business as usual," said Great Southern President and CEO Joseph W. Turner. "Great Southern has served Missouri customers' financial needs for 88 years with a deep commitment to building winning relationships. We look forward to the opportunity of serving Sun Security Bank customers with the same excellent service from the same local branch staff." Established in 1970, Sun Security Bank operated 27 locations in 15 counties in central and southern Missouri. Only one market, Stockton, Mo., overlapped between the Sun Security Bank and Great Southern footprints, with both institutions operating one branch in this market. Great Southern will be assuming approximately $287 million of deposits of Sun Security Bank at no premium. Additionally, Great Southern is purchasing approximately $245 million in loans and $35 million of other real estate owned (ORE) at a discount of $55 million. The loans (excluding approximately $4 million of consumer loans) and ORE purchased are covered by a loss sharing agreement between the FDIC and Great Southern. Under this agreement, the FDIC has agreed to cover 80% of the losses on the covered loans and ORE. In addition, Great Southern will also be purchasing cash and certain marketable securities of Sun Security Bank. The Company anticipates recording this transaction under ASC 805 – Business Combinations, in the quarter ending December 31, 2011. The financial statement effects of this transaction will be disclosed at a later date upon completion of further review and analysis, but the Company anticipates that this transaction will be accretive to income and equity beginning in the current quarter. Customers with questions about today's transaction should call the FDIC toll-free at 1-866-806-6128. The phone number will be operational this evening until 9:00 p.m., Central Daylight Time (CDT); on Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., CDT; on Sunday from noon to 6:00 p.m., CDT; and thereafter from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., CDT. Interested parties also can visit the FDIC's Web site at http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/sunsecurity.html. In addition, customers can visit their former Sun Security Bank branch should they have questions about their banking relationship. Headquartered in Springfield, Mo., Great Southern offers banking, investment, insurance and travel services. Including this acquisition, Great Southern now operates 103 retail banking centers and hundreds of ATMs in Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska. With $3.7 billion in assets, Great Southern Bancorp, Inc. is a public company and its common stock (ticker: GSBC) is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select stock exchange. www.GreatSouthernBank.com Forward-Looking Statements When used in documents filed or furnished by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), in the Company's press releases or other public or shareholder communications, and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project," "intends" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

If you were a parent hit by the Hannah Montana scandal, in which scalpers, armed with programs that would buy large numbers of tickets at lightning fast speeds, stole tickets to be resold later, or if you were a baseball fan trying to get your tickets to the World Series games only to be disheartened when you read three horrible words "Internal Server Error" you understand the power of the DDoS.
The DDoS, or DoS (drop the Distributed) if it's executed by just one person from one computer, is an increasing threat as we do more and more of our commerce online. Attackers also use the DDoS to find other vulnerabilities that only show themselves when servers are under high load.
DDoS attacks can come in two flavors, legitimate and illegitimate. Legitimate DDoS's happen when many, many users try to access information or a resource on a server at the same time, for instance when tickets first go on sale for a concert. Illegitimate DDoS's occur when attackers take over the machines of hundreds or thousands of unsuspecting users through the use of Viruses, Worms and spyware. Then when called upon these infected computers can focus their processing cycles, and more importantly, their bandwidth to take down their target.
We know that the scalpers attempting to get at the precious Hannah Montana tickets were using programs specially designed to grab tickets from the servers as quickly as possible, but it's difficult to say whether or not the ticket servers for the World Series were under an external attack or not. Since this is one of the biggest events of the year, millions of potential buyers is a reasonable number to hit the live servers. What isn't difficult to say, however, is that there are hackers out there waiting to use this opportunity to steal innocent baseball fans' personal information.
In the heat of the moment of buying tickets that you know you may have only one chance to buy, people may forget to look for the SSL lock to ensure they're talking to who they think they are. So this frenzy really opens the user up to some serious phishing and Man in the Middle attack vectors. If users can reasonably expect that they will have more than one chance at these tickets they can take their time on each page and take care to look for signs of phishing. SSL lock, proper URL, etc.
The DDoS is largely an arms race between the hackers that take control over machines through malware and the server administrators trying to keep their machines up and running under the spike in load. It's is a good way for an attacker to get his foot in the door to find other security vulnerabilities. Much like a friend who has tried hard to get rid of an accent when he speaks, but it creeps back in when he's tired or stressed, computer systems tend to show serious signs of weaknesses when under a similar type of load.
People are starting to really hold the administrators of these site's feet to the fire in situations like this, and that's great because largely the change has to come from their end. The better use of CAPTCHA images is great, but ultimately there needs to be a more sophisticated defense. Application security, while the server is under load, needs to be tested by third party assessors to verify the security of the system and to verify the system is ready for such load.
So what are the fixes for such an attack, malicious or otherwise? Here's a quick list that can help you to secure your systems against the DDoS:
- Use proper logging systems – Techniques such as log throttling, write only logs, and using log servers can strengthen the retroactive security of a system. After a possible DDoS attack has occurred the company will no doubt want to investigate the attack. An investigation is only possible if the correct level of logging has been used. Too much and the logs will quickly become filled, which could be the reason for the DoS in the first place. Too little and the logs will be worthless because they don't contain enough information to catch the criminal.
- Redundancy and Load Balancers – It is estimated that Google is able to serve 200 Million requests per day (that's more than 2,300 requests per second), they do this through redundancy. Having great load balancers, firewalls and enough redundant servers behind them to deal with the load will help withstand the amount of traffic we all hope to have.
- Security from within – DoS attacks leverage problems with the software that can bring a server to its knees. This type of attack targets infinite loops, buffer overflows, and other crashing bugs in software to stop a server from responding with a single request. Building your software with security and reliability in mind will help to make sure this can't happen to your software.
Good Security Audits – a good third party security audit will help make sure that your software can withstand the barrage of request at high load times, but also helps make sure that the server doesn't show further signs of weakness when load is high, such as not being able to load necessary encryption or logging libraries.

Marching Men HTML version
It is difficult not to be of two minds about the manifestation now called, and
perhaps rightly, "The Madness of the Marching Men." In one mood it comes back
to the mind as something unspeakably big and inspiring. We go each of us
through the treadmill of our lives caught and caged like little animals in some vast
menagerie. In turn we love, marry, breed children, have our moments of blind
futile passion and then something happens. All unconsciously a change creeps
over us. Youth passes. We become shrewd, careful, submerged in little things.
Life, art, great passions, dreams, all of these pass. Under the night sky the
suburbanite stands in the moonlight. He is hoeing his radishes and worrying
because the laundry has torn one of his white collars. The railroad is to put on an
extra morning train. He remembers that fact heard at the store. For him the night
becomes more beautiful. For ten minutes longer he can stay with the radishes
each morning. There is much of man's life in the figure of the suburbanite
standing absorbed in his own thoughts in the midst of his radishes.
And so about the business of our lives we go and then of a sudden there comes
again the feeling that crept over us all in the year of the Marching Men. In a
moment we are again a part of the moving mass. The old religious exaltation,
strange emanation from the man McGregor, returns. In fancy we feel the earth
tremble under the feet of the men --the marchers. With a conscious straining of
the mind we strive to grasp the processes of the mind of the leader during that
year when men sensed his meaning, when they saw as he saw the workers--saw
them massed and moving through the world.
My own mind, striving feebly to follow that greater and simpler mind, gropes
about. I remember sharply the words of a writer who said that men make their
own gods and realise that I myself saw something of the birth of such a god. For
he was near to being a god then--our McGregor. The thing he did rumbles in the
minds of men yet. His long shadow will fall across men's thoughts for ages. The
tantalising effort to understand his meaning will tempt us always into endless
Only last week I met a man--he was a steward in a club and lingered talking to
me by a cigar case in an empty billiard-room--who suddenly turned away to
conceal from me two large tears that had jumped into his eyes because of a kind
of tenderness in my voice at the mention of the Marching Men.
Another mood comes. It may be the right mood. I see sparrows jumping about in
an ordinary roadway as I walk to my office. From the maple trees the little winged
seeds come fluttering down before my eyes. A boy goes past sitting in a grocery
wagon and over-driving a rather bony horse. As I walk I overtake two workmen

Lupine Attack
The child screamed again in fear as she tried to scramble up a tree, her torch dropping onto the road below. From the thick undergrowth lining the road, four black forms suddenly surged. They were wolves, snarling and drooling. In moments, they reached the base of the tree, and carefully skirting the torch, they leaped for the screaming girl. One caught a hold of her dress. For a moment she lost her hold on the tree branch and slipped down lower. She shrieked in terror as another set of slavering jowls clamped brutally on her dress, yanking her down.
With a moment of hesitation Hal rushed in to attack the wolves, slamming his hammer down on the back of one, causing it to yelp in pain and turn towards him. Revansa moved in as well, her scythe swinging back and forth, the but wolves were able to dodge out of her way. Vesper let loose with her magic spells striking a few of the wolves. Their attention drawn away from Elenia, the wolves tore into Revansa and Hal, causing serious wounds. Eventually the wolves were slain through magic and steel.
Madame Yvonne was nowhere to be found, having left in her wagon at the first sign of trouble. Hal skinned the wolves, hoping that their pelts might bring a decent price in Il Aluk. Revansa surveyed the surroundings, finding only a few trace signs of the Treants, but no other animal tracks. She did discover a scroll on the ground, apparently dropped by the Vistani as she fled.
Vesper and Revansa discussed the scroll but could not determine if any of the signs it mentioned had happened. Eventually they decided to keep a careful eye out as the continued to travel. They also discussed the nature of Elenia, finally coming to an understanding about the differences in their dreams.
After resting and tending to their wounds, they party continued to head towards Il Aluk. What should have been a relatively short march through the forest took much longer than expected and before they new it, night began descending once again. As before Elenia became increasingly nervous begging them to stop and light a campfire to keep the evils at bay.

The appartment was nice and cosy, looked like on the pictures and was easy to reach by public transport. The kitchen is well equipped so that cooking there (even for quite a big group of people) during or stay worked quite well.
For big groups with little budget this is definitely a great place to stay in Madrid!
Very nice appartment. Nice location, not too far from the centre, good airconditioning and nice neighbours. Kitchen wasn't very good though. Small pans and furnace. Overall very good for the price.
The apartment was perfect. Clean and tidy. Friendly, efficient service from Manual and Micaela. Recommended.
They late a little bit and they didin't apologize but he gave us very good expanations about apartment. Entrance in building isn't good but apartment is very good. The main problem is smell from other apartments that come into our. There are very good beds. Apartment was clean and has everything what you need for a stay. It is very good located- 10 minutes walk to Plaza Mayor.
A very nice apartment in a really beautifool, central and characteristic area of the city. The host was reliable in the instructions provided me. Just the condizionaore could work better.
Un piso muy acogedor y muy bien situado. Totalmente recomendable.
Las fotos son mejores que la realidad; luego el parking, motivo principal por el que lo seleccionamos, no estaba disponible. El alojamiento bastante justo en cuanto a equipamiento general.
Bastante insatisfecho en cuanto a relación calidad-precio.
Estuvimos muy a gusto. Tiene todo lo necesario que debe tener un apartamento. Además las camas eran muy cómodas y el sistema de ventilación muy eficaz.
Appartement calme et très bien situé. ( près de la gare, du musée reina sofia ) : nous n'avons pris qu'une fois le métro.
Manque de luminosité dans la pièce principale .
Quelques petits points à revoir cependant : le volet de la pièce principale, l'évacuation de la douche, les murs auraient besoin d'être repeints dans la cuisine, , les chaises ( nous n'avons pas osé nous asseoir dessus de peur de les casser : les pieds partent de travers), les serviettes de toilette (manque de douceur) : ceci donne une impression de mal entretenu.
Equipement cuisine moyen : un grille pain et un mini four seraient appréciés. ( aucun aliment de base genre sel , poivre qui seraient appréciés quand on voyage en avion )
Muy atentos a la recepción. Se ajustó a mis necesidades. Todo perfecto y repetiré en cuanto pueda.

more "engaged" in the classroom instead of getting engaged outside of the classroom. Technology consultant Naomi Harm says her firm has worked with more than 50 school districts in Wisconsin on using the iPad in the classroom.
The state was part of a lawsuit against Microsoft that claimed the company used its monopoly position to hurt the competition. At the time of the suit, which was 1998, those competitors included Netscape. Class Action suits followed and Apple tried to get the claims dismissed in a number of them. At the end of the day, the company paid 17 states to settle the suit.

As we age, we carry on greater responsibilities, especially if we decide to grow a family, or purchase our own personal property. One of those great responsibilities is protecting our home and loved ones. There is no such thing as being "too careful" with what we value the most. Fortunately, today there are many options into implementing a security system at home, here are some recommendations.
First of all, a good and secure home does not only give you peace of mind, but it also avoids you insurance costs in the long run; the more security you implement at home, the lower your premium will be and the better benefits will you receive. Also with today's technology, it is easier and cheaper to install, control, and monitor your home security. Usually, the best way to go is either to have a good security camera network put in specific areas of your house that can be monitored from remote locations (ex. office, laptop, vacations, etc.), or an alarm system. Today, most camera systems are wireless for DIY lovers, which relieves you the stress of building a wire network all around the house. Another great benefit from installing security cameras comes when the inevitable occurs; a video is crucial to identifying and prosecuting the trespasser or burglar. Furthermore, with security cameras becoming popular, there is a wide selection of products available; people usually choose according to price range, need, and level of security they want to implement. These companies usually offer you support and advice when installing your cameras. The standard concerns on where to place a camera include entrances, exits, garages, living rooms, and hallways. Another decision homeowner must make is if they want their cameras to be visible, or hidden. Additionally, a security camera network does not only help you monitor who comes in and out of your property, but what these people do, like nanny's, gardeners, cleaning personal, or others.
The other popular option is an efficient alarm system. Most homeowners today prefer to go with wireless security options when selecting alarms. Some of the best and less pricy alarm products come with a DIY installation manual as well, avoiding you the trouble of chipping, hammering and wrecking your home just to place a wire connection. Today, most of alarm systems come with a complete set of motion detectors, contacts, remote key fobs, and control panels that give you complete control over your alarm network. Some even come with remote monitoring that is powered by a GSM module, which allows you to control alarms through your cell phone. Therefore any unusual movements that may be triggered will be reported to you via SMS text, with which you can also arm, disarm or program your alarms!
Finally, security experts usually recommend a combination of both of the options presented in this article, most brands and companies offer expandable options depending on your living and security needs for your home, however, the final decision is always yours!


text: "Approach Ranging from installation, intervention, performance and video to artistÃs books, publishing and curating, my acheivements cannot really be defined in terms of specific art disciplines. Rather, I operate through projects, some of which develop over the years while others materialize in a more targeted context and time-frame. My approach leads me to forge close ties with groups of people united by shared exprience. I attempt to involve them in revelatory action, encouraging them to produce various types of marks and narrative structures. Their contributions ñ for example in the form of written traces, drawings, photographs, audio recordings ñbecome elements of my work. In the encounter and negotiation with others, I look for the traces and outward signs of an identity, and try to make visible the common experiences that link individuals together. This takes shape through a repertory of gestures and tactics (immersion and field work; meetings, exchanges and interactions; data collecting; cataloguing and classifying; analyzing; exhibiting) ñ the moment of exhibition often acting as a kind of cross section, that is, a space within which the materials and treatments appear through a body of elements that translate a process at work. While my attachment for the human subject and its search for identity reveals my kinship with the anthropologist, the figures of the detective, the scientist and the archivist emerge from the methods I use to register and decipher the signs of a world unseen, latent and difficult to visualize and portray. However, the data collecting and organizing systems that I implement often involve a form of blindness, a defective mechanism. Hence the recurring motifs in my creative process: the enforcement of contrived rules that sideslip or induce an uncomfortable ambiguity, the hint of lacks and wants, the creation of handicaps, the acknowledgement of impasses and eternal beginnings.

What a beautiful time of the year!
See you on the other side
Facebook is a way of breaking news. Most of the time it's something trivial like a photo, some rant, check-in to some place or event, some famous person who just died, link to music video or news story… at least that's the kind of trivial information I post and read.
And then there are birthday wishes.
I will always remember my friend Lee's birthday is on September 11. I was working with him in 2001 when the World Trade Center was attacked. It was Lee's 35th birthday, and a somber time for all of us. He hated that his birthday was on September 11 and said he would instead celebrate his half-birthday on March 11 instead. I liked that idea because that date is close to my birthday.
I always liked Lee – he was very smart, very funny, and had that Southern charm that you don't find too much in California. But Lee left California 10 years ago, and though we stayed in touch a bit, I haven't heard from in in a few years.
Nonetheless, when I saw the little sidebar on Facebook reminding me it was Lee's birthday, I popped over to his page to wish him happy birthday, only to find his page strewn with messages about how much he was missed.
Damn. Lee passed away last December.
He was a shining star. A professional at work. A witty, outrageous ham in his personal life. Someone you could have a serious conversation with, and someone who was light-hearted and free-spirited. I didn't really know him too well outside of work, but I remember once he told me he thought we could have been really good friends, and I was glad he said that, because I thought the same.
Goodbye Lee. You were one of a kind. I'll see you on the other side.
Just in passing, I'm not asking…
Hall and Oates' "Abandoned Lunchonette" is one of my all-time favorite albums. It takes me back to high school, when a friend of mine used play it all the time. The opening track "When the Morning Comes" is about John Oates being stood up by a girl, so he goes and writes a song about it. It's a bright, bouncy song, that doesn't feel like it's about being sad and rejected but more about, well being alright.
"Just in passing, I'm not asking that you be anyone but you
When you come home, try to come home alone
It's so much better with two
Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old
Standing here waiting on you
It'll be all right when the morning comes."
– Hall and Oates
I like this live performance of the song 1) because it's different from the record, and 2) because it features the late T-Bone Wolk, long-time bass player with Hall and Oates. I miss watching him on the Live From Daryl's House episodes.
Hello, you're my very special one
Today is the birthday of Maureen Tucker, the drummer of the Velvet Underground. Like any good former college radio DJ, I love the first Velvet Underground album. "Sunday Morning" is my favorite track, followed by "I'll Be Your Mirror", and "Pale Blue Eyes". But I think "After Hours", the closing track, sung by Moe Tucker, is the most poignant and charming track on the album.
Funny how one would call a VU song charming. But it is. And, according to Lou Reed, he wanted Moe to sing the song because her voice was so pure and innocent.
So, being that it's her birthday and all, I listened to the song again. I'm not sure how closely I listened to all of the words before, so I looked up the lyrics, as I often do when it's a song I really like. And I started thinking about the meaning of the song. Reading the YouTube video comments, most people said it was about being lonely and isolated. I probably thought that too at some point in time.
But today I took away a different meaning.
Maybe it's really your frame of mind that interprets what "if you close the door" means.
Sure, you could take "if you close the door" to mean that if you shut me out. But perhaps it meant, if you close the door and we are both alone. Just think of it that way for a bit.
"If you close the door, the night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out and say hello to never
All the people are dancing and they´re having such fun
I wish it could happen to me
But if you close the door, I´d never have to see the day again"
After Hours - The Velvet Underground
"The night could last forever" could mean we could be together forever. Later she sings "people look well in the dark" meaning she prefers to be with someone alone rather than in a crowd of people. "I'd never have to see the day again" meaning that I'd never have to deal with the rest of the people outside because I would have you. An introvert's plea.
"If you close the door, the night could last forever
Leave the wine glass out and drink a toast to never
Oh, someday I know someone will look into my eyes
And say hello – you´re my very special one"
There's an old-fashioned echo on "Hello!" followed by a pause after "You're my very special one." I think that's where the innocence in her voice really comes out. Charming.
Anyway, I don't know what Lou Reed had in mind when he wrote the song. Perhaps it is just about being an isolated lonely young person longing for love like everyone thinks it is, and I probably thought it was for so many years. But today I listened to it and took away something else.
Anyway, happy birthday Moe Tucker. And thanks Lou Reed for writing this lovely little song, and Moe Tucker for singing it so sweetly.
Still finds a way to haunt me
There's a song that haunts me. I can't tell you the first time I heard it. Maybe it was when I was a young child. Maybe when I was an older teenager. But many years later it still captivates me, especially this line.
"Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me
Though they're so small"
– Walk Away Renee by The Left Banke
Heartbreaking lyrics, yet there's something equally magically beautiful about the song. I don't know what it is. The arrangement, the strings, the choice of chords…I'm sure it can be analyzed in an academic way, but I am speaking from my heart, which is never academic.
I learned to play "Walk Away Renee" on the guitar, then on the piano, and would play it over and over again, with my eyes closed, improvising forever on the solo, so I would feel closer to and get lost in the music.
Does that sound strange? Obsessive? Perhaps, but if you love music like I do, I think you understand where I'm coming from.
Last year I read about a Left Banke reunion, and saw that they played a handful of shows in the New York area. There are many times I wished I lived on the East Coast, because so much music that I like is happening there. I followed the band's news. I watched YouTube interviews with them, and saw a performance earlier this year which reunited original member Michael Brown with them on "Pretty Ballerina". It was a magical historical moment in music history. I knew I had to find a way to see them play live.
Last week I traveled to New York to see the Left Banke in New York City. The 11 piece band lovingly recreated the sound of albums recorded 45 years ago, complete with a 3 piece string section and rock & roll guitars and drums. It was complete magic. Musical bliss. I saw them 3 times in one week. I don't know if I will ever get to see them again, but I'm glad that I finally got to seem them live and meet them in person as well. Thank you Tom Finn, George Cameron and Mike Fornatale for bringing the magic of the music of the Left Banke back to life. You did a wonderful thing there.
The best things in life are free
A walk on a beautiful day with my dog Cassie reminds me that the best things in life are free.
Sail on silver girl
A little while ago, I wrote about a song I do NOT want played at my funeral.
Now I'd like to say that I WOULD LIKE to have "Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Simon and Garfunkel played at my funeral.
It's a hymn to friendship and love, beautifully sung, played and orchestrated. It gives me the chills, a lump in my throat, tears in my eyes, an ache in my heart.
Imagine there's no Facebook
It's easy if you try.
If it ever stops raining
Graham Parker has always been one of my favorite songwriters. I think a lot of people have forgotten about him, if they ever even heard of him. His 1979 album "Squeezing Out Sparks" is the one that people remember the best. It had some great songs like "Local Girls", "Discovering Japan" and the very poignant "You Can't Be Too Strong". He had a couple of AOR hits in the '80's with "Endless Night" and one of my personal favorite songs "Get Started, Start A Fire". But he faded out of the mainstream in the '90's and like so many great rock and roll artists, doesn't get much attention anymore.
But I never forgot Graham, and would keep up with his new releases – even his country album, "Your Country". His songwriting got even better and his style never changed. I hear he lives in upstate NY and I know he tours the East Coast on a fairly regular basis, but doesn't make it out West too often.
So when I saw he was playing the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley last month, I made it a point to not miss that show. Just Graham solo with his guitar, fresh from playing two shows in one night at McCabe's in Santa Monica.
It had been raining a lot that week, so he probably chose to open with "If It Ever Stops Rainin'" from his "Deepcut to Nowhere" album because of that. He played a wide selection of his catalog that night, but that opening song, particularly its chorus, stuck in my head, and I have been listening to it constantly since then.
"And if it ever stops rainin'
If the sun ever breaks through and shines down from on high
I'll do all those things I keep complainin' that I'm not doin'
And I'll put my arms around you under the blue blue sky
Blue blue sky."
- Graham Parker
I searched YouTube for a video of this song, but could only find a so-so quality live version, so I went ahead and posted this hoping more people would find it and be exposed to the great, wonderful songwriter Graham Parker.
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.Confucius

Saturday, January 5, 2002
Steamboat Springs Last week's Olympic tryouts were an experience of a lifetime for biathlete Capt. Michael Brothers.
However, it may have been his lack of experience against elite fields that kept him from making the 2002 Winter Games.
"I'm really happy the Air Force gave me the opportunity to train full time," Brothers said. "In practice I shot real well, but I was just average in the competitions, and that doesn't get you to the Olympics."
Brothers thinks the crowd noise, the loudspeakers and the excitement that surrounded the event held at Soldier Hollow in Park City, Utah, made it hard to concentrate in the shooting portion of the events.
"I think my lack of experience was a factor," said Brothers, who has been cross-country skiing for years but just became a biathlete a year ago.
Brothers, whose parents, Jane and Lyman, have lived in Steamboat the past several years, placed 14th, 21st, 12th and 16th in the Olympic qualifiers.
Not bad for his first Olympic trials, but not good enough to make the 2002 U.S. Olympic team this time around.
After the completion of the trials on Thursday, the four-person American team was named. The squad will be made up of Lawton Redmond, Jay Hakkinen, Jeremy Teela and Dan Campbell. Those athletes all earned positions on the team at last week's trials.
A biathlon combines the disciplines of cross-country skiing and shooting into a single event. Skiers must complete laps around the course and then stop and shoot after each lap. The skiers are penalized, either with laps or with additional time, depending on how well they shoot.
While Brothers was always at the top of the skiing results, he said he struggled with his shooting something he hopes he can fix in the future with more practice.
In his first race on Dec. 29, Brothers' times on the cross-country 20-kilometer course were in the top 5. His shooting, however, was average (60 percent) and he dropped to 14th in the final standings.
In the race, Brothers completed five four-kilometer loops. He also shot from the prone position on the first and third laps and the standing position on the second and fourth laps.
The next day, Brothers competed in a 10-kilometer sprint event in which he placed 21st. Once again, he shot well. But a problem "zeroing" the sights on his rifle hurt him in the shooting portion.
"I was just a little bit low on every shot," Brothers said.
By the time he figured it out, he had already dropped out of contention. He said with more experience he might have discovered the problem and had been able to adjust sooner.
The skiers completed loops of three, four and three kilometers in the event and shot from both the prone and standing positions.
On Jan. 2, the skiers completed a 12.5-kilometer pursuit race in which Brothers finished 12th. The final event was another 10-kilometer sprint, and he was 16th in that one.
"Realistically, looking at it I'm pretty satisfied with the way I performed," Brothers said. "Of course I wanted to make the team, but the top skiers are a lot more experienced."
Brothers will head to Europe in February to take part in the Military Olympic Games, which take place every year. He then will take a position as an instructor at the Air Force Academy, where he hopes to coach the college ski team. With a little luck, Brothers said he hopes to make another run at the 2006 Olympic Games.
"It's too early to say for sure, but if I'm still skiing well enough, I will give it another try."

We love a grain free treat around here, but due to health problems, are also trying to reduce all added sugars from our diet—even the wholesome ones, like raw honey.
These grain free, coconut flour chocolate muffins can be sweetened mostly with stevia, so they help you get your chocolate fix with a bare minimum of added sugar.
And with one egg per muffin, coconut oil and fresh nut butter, these muffins are relatively nutritious too.
- 6 eggs, room temperature
- 2 Tbsp. coconut oil or butter, melted
- 10 Tbsp. honey OR coconut sugar OR Rapadura/panela (for a low-sugar option, use 5 Tbsp. sweetener with 60 drops of liquid stevia.)
- 1/2 cup additive-free nut butter (I used fresh-ground hazelnut butter made in my food processor, but almond, cashew or even sunflower seed butter would work)
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt
- 1/2 tsp. gluten-free vanilla
- 1/2 cup sifted coconut flour (where to find)
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder*
- 2-3 Tbsp. unsweetened cacao powder, to taste (optional)
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Blend together eggs, oil, sweetener, nut butter, salt, vanilla and cocoa powder, if using.
- Combine coconut flour with baking powder and whisk into batter until there are no lumps. Use a stick blender for speed.
- Pour into greased muffin cups.
- Decorate the muffin tops with nuts, shredded coconut, etc. if desired.
- Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick or fork comes out clean.
- Enjoy!
- *If you need to substitute for baking powder, 1 tsp. of baking powder equals
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda plus 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar plus 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch OR
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda plus 1/2 cup buttermilk, sour milk or yogurt to replace 1/2 cup non-acidic liquid in the recipe
- Food processor (If making your own nut butter. I use this one a few times a week. You can put a whole potato in it!)
- Stick Blender (For ease of mixing and clean up. I use this one for almost all batters.)
- Muffin tins (I like these heart shaped ones made from food-grade silicone)
- Flour sifter (I've used this one-handed sifter for years)

Let relaxation wash over you with a two-night stay for two, Sundays through Thursdays, in a Cityview Room ($199) or a Fallsview Room ($249).

Take a plunge in the indoor pool or work up a sweat in the fitness center––the hotel offers a steady stream of amenities including a Starbucks on-site.

Located just minutes from the falls, this vineyard's vintners will help you soak up the wine-making process––and a few pours in the process. Once you're feeling nice and lucky, use two included passes for the casino shuttle and hedge your bets on a fun night out.
If you really want to get your feet wet, take advantage of Journey Behind the Falls and descend behind the falls through elevator tunnels that lead to three observation decks where a plastic poncho is the only thing separating you from the splash.
At night, the waters illuminate a rainbow of colors you can watch from your room.
Don't let your next getaway leave you high and dry––jump head-first into this Escape that's just dripping with possibilities.
